Sadge

tranquil swift
#

i think my master may be too low

nova marsh
#

Did the robot tell you more mast?

tranquil swift
#

suprisngly

#

no

hybrid needle
#

Then its not too low, problem solved

tranquil swift
#

but i also not too sure how to sim im bad at it lol

sand totem
#

Just replace the mastery with moar crit ez clap

nova marsh
#

Its genuinely quite straight forward for the most psrt

inland drift
#

How are yall gst more haste than mastery i swear im stuck with 21st mastery ffs

hybrid needle
#

How do you manage that

nova marsh
#

get evrey item besides cloak

onyx gust
near radish
nova marsh
nova marsh
near radish
#

What level do you turn in the delve quests for 90 is it 88?

nova marsh
#

I'd do 88 and a half

onyx gust
nova marsh
small hamlet
#

88 and 3 or 4 bar

nova marsh
#

The robot can sim many things

onyx gust
#

i should sim this option to see if my stats are ok?

nova marsh
#

no

#

You sim gear directly

#

And sim ur enchants to get a rough idea of what you actually need

#

stat weights are a somewhat outdated tool we don't use anymore. There's a writeup on raidbots for it.

tranquil swift
#

50k gold to someone who gives me 5 mins of there time to sim correctly xD

onyx gust
#

idk if im a stupid one or blind i dont see anything from him about stats that i should change anything

tranquil swift
#

i pay for convience frozen!

#

like door dash

minor gust
#

a youtube video is door dash

nova marsh
#

I do reccomend youtube video

onyx gust
#

should i chase more haste?

nova marsh
#

Off of feelscraft I'd do more crit

#

But again, use top gear on raid bots

nova marsh
#

essentially

#

go here

#

go get the addon called Simulationcraft from curseforge

sand totem
#

I remember being so pumped for our mastery change and not needing deep wounds to grant it.

Now it just makes me sad

nova marsh
#

Type /simc ingame

#

Copy that input and paste it into this section

#

Select the gear you want to sim evrey time you get upgrades and see what it says.

hybrid needle
nova marsh
#

...

#

I never want to say that again ew

hybrid needle
#

Every single AA firstpull everyone laughs at warr dmg

nova marsh
#

Just remeber

#

They're filthy padders

hybrid needle
#

I mean

#

Yes

nova marsh
#

They may laugh, but we're going great against the lashers

hybrid needle
#

Hungry lasher is by far their top1 dmg

#

Meanwhile when i look at it its always crawth and hungry lasheras somewhere 5 or 6

nova marsh
#

I honestly don't feel too bad

#

Because it's either that or int the whole dungeon lowkey as colo

#

Well maybe not int but holy fuck colo feels awful

#

Like

#

Half the packs you loose your stacks

#

Going to crawth? loose stacks? Right before ancient? Maybe loose stacks depending on what ur last GCD was? Going from crawth? No stacks. Vexamus? NO DICE. Going to final boss? Lmao get fucked

#

So. Much. Fucking run time and RP

#

It does suck we kinda suck dick at the biggest pull of the season

rare kite
#

we were good at that pull in dragonflight. roar hard carried

nova marsh
#

True

#

Bleeds in general were so much better in DF

#
  • doubble Chadstorm
dire hinge
#

dreadnaught owned too classic

#

did more damage than all your other spells

nova marsh
#

Yeah

#

We actually had a decent AoE profile imo without cleave

#

Now look where we are

rare kite
#

yea we're stronger now tho. insane how good arms is in keys rn

nova marsh
#

Stronger is based on tuning

#

Blizz could shoot us tomorrow

rare kite
#

ofc it is. everything is based on tuning

nova marsh
#

I just enjoyed DF's profile more

#

I mean I also do really miss IFTK

rare kite
#

in keys i agree, i miss big whirlwind

nova marsh
#

big WW in keys was kinda fun

#

For raid I don't think I miss it, I'd rather have current slayer

rare kite
#

agreed. just please give a tiny rage gen buff

nova marsh
#

Honestly slayer is kind of a genius way to solve our biggest problem

#

From DF

wind hatch
nova marsh
hybrid needle
#

Man i just want col to have bigger ST

#

The ammount of demolishs feels great

nova marsh
#

I think post buffs it's fine

summer shore
#

We need patch note saying demolish deals double the damage when st

nova marsh
#

But the problem is I'm not sure if it'll stay fine

minor gust
#

just you wait till tier set is gone

#

I imagine S2 tier will be fury level

hybrid needle
summer shore
#

Imagine cs is only applied for 10 seconds

nova marsh
pulsar frost
#

Its true tho

rare kite
#

idk if it will be fury level but no one should expect a tierset as strong as current

nova marsh
#

I'm okay with being a bit weaker

#

I'm more worried about gameplay

distant echo
#

Man why is arms warrior so rage hungry

#

Let rend generate more

summer shore
#

Extending cs should be base line i think

#

One talent point.

nova marsh
#

baseline no because nothing can ever be lol

#

but a talent would be very welcome

summer shore
#

Yea like one talent point

#

Mortal strike / cleave to more than 3 target extends cs by 1 second

pulsar frost
#

Lile the lame blizzard they are

nova marsh
pulsar frost
#

Idk the other things are. But im only aware and cRe for rage gen

nova marsh
#

Torments for one

pulsar frost
#

Dont know what's tbst

nova marsh
#

We used to have reck on ava

pulsar frost
#

Or do I really care tbh. Seasons pretty over for me

summer shore
#

Arms identity was excute strength but now colossus dont even use excute

#

😵‍💫

pulsar frost
nova marsh
#

🤷‍♂️

pulsar frost
#

Colo is just more so the aoe build

summer shore
#

They do but still not that good

nova marsh
#

Hot take but genuinely

pulsar frost
#

Not sure if yoy even click SD before slam tbh

nova marsh
#

I think arms is better off without being pigeonholed into just being the exe guy

pulsar frost
#

Idk i like exe

nova marsh
#

I like exe yes

#

but I don't think I want it to be the only part of the fight we actually do damage

pulsar frost
#

I mean it depends ig. Still do decent ish damage out of exe phase in raid

#

But then again idrc for raid so shrug

nova marsh
#

yeah

summer shore
#

It was fun watching your dps meter going nuts and climb up to top at execute phase though

nova marsh
#

Sure that's fun

#

until we've outgeared the boss and execute is signifcantly less meaningful

summer shore
#

Rip sylvanas fight

nova marsh
#

Or

#

yeah

#

we get a slyvie

#

And get told to go fuck ourselves on execute

pulsar frost
#

Idk my time as fury was judt a consistent through out the boss fight assuming no deaths or annoying ass mech. I end up at the top by end of fight anyways but thats consistent and no rxe phase

pulsar frost
nova marsh
#

Dunno never did belo keks

#

Isn't like half of it just eggs

pulsar frost
#

I haven't done mythic and wont. But from what I see its really good since the second egg phase the egg starts at 35 or whatever

#

So you can just exe

summer shore
#

They really should remove slam talents though. And tactician talent. its lols

nova marsh
#

well yeah ofc

pulsar frost
#

But I mean this matter with the out gearing part of bosses just getting nuked

nova marsh
#

why tf do you want tacti removed thou

hybrid needle
#

Just go back to the "here is 3 options, pick one" talents KEKW

pulsar frost
#

Slam is just lame

summer shore
#

I meant the 5% tactician proc one

#

Does anyone even use that

pulsar frost
#

Remove slam

nova marsh
#

Ohhh master tacican

summer shore
#

Yea that shit

#

Lol

nova marsh
#

I mean honestly I'd rather they just tune it to be....something ]

wind hatch
nova marsh
#

The problem is less the idea and more so the fact that the numbers are fucking awful

wind hatch
#

its a pretty big dps loss to take it lol

pulsar frost
#

They could at least increase it from 5% to something more

nova marsh
#

irrc we were gonna use it during beta when it was like....20% irrc?

pulsar frost
#

5% for a capstone talent is kinda lame

summer shore
#

Yeah its funny that they gave us that talent for a capstone

nova marsh
#

I don't care about capstones

pulsar frost
#

I mean

nova marsh
#

Blizz can't design them worth a fuck anyways for arms

pulsar frost
#

Capstone should be strong

nova marsh
#

So I don't think they're a concept at this stage

pulsar frost
#

Since its at the bottom of the tree

#

Otherwise why have trees

nova marsh
#

...

#

I can't even begin to dismantle this one

#

I see the logic but I don't agree

summer shore
#

If you compare that to anger management

pulsar frost
#

Then what's the point of talent trees good sir

#

Ye like anger management id a great example of strong capstone

#

Rage spending let's you cdr cds is quite strong

nova marsh
#

The point of talent trees is to provide players flexiability in what content you're doing

pulsar frost
#

Pallies have a natural 30 sec cd. We do not but we can get near it for ava and what not. Cs is a 45 sec but with cdr its much shorter etc

nova marsh
#

And to give you a mini game of oppertunity cost

#

I would agree with capstones if blizzard actually designed capstones

pulsar frost
#

Whoch can still be done with strong capstone no?

nova marsh
#

But they just don't anymore

#

Can I just remind evreyone here that techincally dance of death was a capstone?

pulsar frost
#

Idk what that was so idk

nova marsh
#

Dance of death reduced bladestorm's cooldown if you killed something

rare kite
#

killed something with bladestorm to be exact

nova marsh
#

This shit

summer shore
#

Its just a dogshit talent

nova marsh
#

Yeah

summer shore
#

Made with no brain

nova marsh
#

exactly

#

And it's not exactly exciting either

summer shore
#

Whoever made that talent was either drunk or stoned

pulsar frost
#

Just sounds like arms just gets the bad end of the stick when it comes to capstone. Talent trees and changes. But doesnt change the fac that capstone should be strong and what not

nova marsh
#

I mean kill or be killed also exists

#

Okay but genuinely

#

Evrey spec I've looked at since DF

#

just dosen't have strong capstones besides like enhance and shadow priest

pulsar frost
#

You should've really just question who's the arms spec dev lol

nova marsh
#

I mean I have since DF

#

But I still just don't think capstones are the issue

sand totem
nova marsh
#

espically because we have shit like hero talents

nova marsh
#

It's just not practical for pve.

#

Maybe for pvp? Dunno

pulsar frost
#

Hero talents whatever. Think it can be used in addition to spec talents but I digress

nova marsh
#

The problem with capstones for me rn

#

Is more so that blizzard is just incrediably inconsistant with designing them atm

#

To the point where I feel like apex talents are meant to be like capstones

pulsar frost
#

Its the problem of class dev if we even have one

nova marsh
#

...I don't think they actually did that well, but that's besides the point

pulsar frost
#

If the dev themselves plays it. You can notice it when looking at other specs. Like hunters espically MM has it worde then us

#

At least we didnt get reworked mid season from when gameplay was fun to terrible gameplay and nerf even tho numbers weren't that great lol

rare kite
#

you can't say mm numbers weren't that great, they were really insane. still sucks to get reworked and nerfed mid season tho

pulsar frost
#

They were middle of the pack if im not mistaken pre rework

#

It wasnt insane insane to the point they needed the nerf. Good numbers dont mean insane. I mean dh and dk both got buffed dispite having actually insane numbers

rare kite
#

iirc statistically they were like top 5 or something

pulsar frost
#

Dont remember seeing them thst high outside of pallies

rare kite
#

either way getting a garbage rework and a nerf in the middle of a season isn't something i wish on any spec, well except aug

summer shore
#

I still think aug should be deleted

pulsar frost
#

But ye talking about blizzard not knowing capstone or talents whatever. At least we're not mm or hunters bad

#

They legit dont know what to do with that spec

summer shore
#

Its either terrible

#

Or op

rare kite
pulsar frost
#

I have no issues with Aug tbh

#

Dont really see why folks dislike Aug that much

rare kite
#

i think i'm owning but it turns out to be fake and then i feel tricked. to me it's like going to the gym and the weights fly off and then you find out some invisible dude was helping you lift

pulsar frost
#

i mean aug is a support class, support class in many ways, one of them is buffing, theyre buffing you to do even more damage then youre already doing, sure i get its fake in a sense but you still gotta do good dps to actually use the boost they give tho

rare kite
#

yea and i do not think a support class is a good idea for WoW

pulsar frost
pulsar frost
rare kite
#

think it's impossible to balance as it is tuned around other top specs. there will always be something OP and by its nature it can never be good for the casual player

pulsar frost
#

i mean theres always gonna be a meta , every season classes change and become meta, which also isnt good for the casual player, but most of these meta stuff shouldnt really affect casual player, if youre really talking about casual causal, not just the lesser then the top player like im one

tranquil swift
#

does fury slayer do as much damage as slarms?

#

give or take?

rare kite
#

ofc there's always gonna be a meta but what kind of weakness does aug have? no other spec has to be tuned around other specs, like if 2 other specs gets giga buffed then aug gets indirectly buffed

#

god i hate it so much

slow saddle
#

It had less prio and funnel though

tranquil swift
#

i wonder if thane will do a bunch more now since the thunderclap buff

slow saddle
#

Blast

pulsar frost
#

itll be 30% more

tranquil swift
#

sorry blast haha

pulsar frost
#

:D

tranquil swift
#

wonder if thats big enough for the slayer fury guys to switch back over to it

pulsar frost
#

or 3.5% more in aoe or 2.5% more in st

#

eh, lots of slayer players just prefer slayer over thanes gameplay

#

like nox

rare kite
#

whether thane sees play or not depends on if you need prio damage or not. i still think slayer fury will be played in academy over thane, like slayer might do less on the meter but kills the big lashers

pulsar frost
#

if you really want prio on lashers as well youd just play slarms over fury in general

#

since i do think slarms has the better prio as well

rare kite
#

it does, no doubt

pulsar frost
#

fury would be better if exe didnt have the cd

tranquil swift
#

thane was super easy to play

#

but boring

#

it did good numbers tho, now im assuming more with the thane buff

pulsar frost
#

slayer is even more easy

boreal quartz
#

Might be a fury issue not a hero issue

stoic dagger
#

hey does buffs to overpower still affect dreadnaught dam?

onyx gust
#

every week we get 1 flux for catalyst?

#

cause i still thinking about spedning rolls on pos

boreal quartz
#

So you have infinty if you play the game

onyx gust
#

drop from where?

#

not from m+ for sure

robust ridge
#

From M+, Delves, Raid etc

nova marsh
#

It'd be goofy if they buffed exe to be good without the CD and you just spam it into rampage. Sounds kinda boring

onyx gust
#

how awful demolish is to play?

nova marsh
hybrid needle
#

Wdym awful

#

Demo feels the best it has been

nova marsh
#

As long as you don't have literally zero haste demo is a non issue

onyx gust
#

i feel like playstyle

#

is awful

#

i do have 28%

#

i was playing it with 13

#

XD

nova marsh
#

ebolerate on why

#

And there's nothing wrong with that

onyx gust
#

gotta check it

nova marsh
#

Slayer is right there

onyx gust
#

i was thinking how much better is demo than slayer

nova marsh
#

In Aoe it's signifcantly better but slayer is still absolutely playable

onyx gust
#

yeah it is

#

but difference in overall dmg

#

is huge

tranquil swift
#

Everyone go to sleep.. Santa is coming tomorrow with some arms buffs

nova marsh
#

Bro it's not even july

#

I can't even make a christmas in july joke

tranquil swift
#

Santa came early it looks like

#

I don’t make the rules

#

Col with better st I mean what a fucking gift!

#

Maybe it’ll do more than the tank now 😂

nova marsh
#

tbf it normally does more then tank rn

#

with good rng

#

or if ur tank dosen't troll

tranquil swift
#

Just kidding, but you know what I mean haha

onyx gust
#

with my knowledge on demolish i did 280k dps (2m fight) on cleave Training dummies with my current gear
and 273 with slayer

#

so basiclly i suck on demolish

#

better stick to slayer xD

nova marsh
#

Do actual dungeons

Shhhhh

fleet nexus
balmy kindle
#

Hmm it's not that low tbf

#

Like low rolling SD can drop your overalls a lot too

onyx gust
#

171k overall is huge tbh

#

im doing wrong rotation right? when Slam is higher than Overpower on slayer XD

wind hatch
onyx gust
#

really?

nova marsh
pulsar frost
#

think fury slayer would be decent if not close to arms if it wasnt behind a cd

balmy kindle
#

Pretty sure fury exe hits softer no?

nova marsh
#

yeah that's the bigger problem

#

Is fury execute is piss water compared to arms exe

balmy kindle
#

Like I am no fury master but I seldom see big numbersKEKW

pulsar frost
balmy kindle
#

Yeah, but it hits like a wet noodle even if inside reck and enrage as well

#

Like arms exe is pretty cranky ATM

pulsar frost
fleet nexus
balmy kindle
#

Pull size, tank cadence etc do matter thoughokayge

onyx gust
#

+11 boss my rotation

#

idk

#

i feel like im doing something wrong

balmy kindle
#

I would say slayer arms as long as you are 2nd and not super far off it's ok

balmy kindle
#

With the m+ build and blue man buff present mortal strike is seldom pressedKEKW

onyx gust
#

how is that too much

latent moss
#

on st u press it on cd outside of exe

onyx gust
#

i was jsut pressing it on cd

latent moss
#

in exe u dont press it unless u have cs up

#

heres the prio

#

ms>rend is a loss on 8t but a gain on prio dmg

onyx gust
#

yeah

#

ep+cs

#

op

#

i dont understand all of them

#

XD

#

what is ep

#

and sd

latent moss
#

executioners precision

onyx gust
#

cs is colo smash>?

latent moss
#

yes

#

sd is sudden death

nova marsh
#

Guys is it trolling not to play dev dh or dk

#

Oh my god the meta slaves make me so mad lmao

onyx gust
#

omg my head is exploding

#

too much info

latent moss
#

i love how arms bis is 0 vers

#

owns

#

and its like

#

all crit and haste

sick badge
#

Is fury now stronger then arms?

wind hatch
nova marsh
#

Irs lowkey leak

latent moss
#

idk raid

nova marsh
wind hatch
#

arms better in raid too mostly

latent moss
#

i havent specced fury outside of hof nullaeus

#

and even that i think was easily doable as arms

#

but arms had like

#

negative st back then

latent moss
#

hoooly

nova marsh
latent moss
#

its good that dps specs dont want vers imo

#

if a dps spec wants vers

#

something is wrong

#

once we start dr-ing in s2 and s3

#

u will play vers

balmy kindle
nova marsh
#

To be fair, outlaw wants vers

balmy kindle
#

You can legit slow chain pull to res 20 while casters have to do risky big pulls

nova marsh
#

You have to suck and worship the meta evrey day to even attempt a 20 resil

#

Obviously

#

I genuinely hate meta slop worshippers

latent moss

hooly zorthas W

nova marsh

People who literally cannot fathom not playing something broken

latent moss
#

fuck stat drs

nova marsh
latent moss
#

this season has been peak when it comes to gearing

#

i see crit haste i equip it

nova marsh
#

Outside of trinkies

#

Tes

balmy kindle
#

Lol in my guild I am catching up to the udk thoughKEKW , I think phys comp is massively underrated

Chinese players have been calling for physical comp quite awhile now

latent moss
#

that i get my bis trinkets from first 2

#

first 3 i guess

balmy kindle
#

^^

#

No fiddling with puzzle box

latent moss
#

its mostly crit haste

#

"very little" the most out of all dpses but its still low

onyx gust
#

i feel like voidclaw is useless

latent moss
#

its worse than windrunner spire gloves

onyx gust
#

there isnt any crit/haste gloves?

latent moss
#

windrunner spire

onyx gust
#

so how they are worse

latent moss
#

i said voidclaw is worse

onyx gust
#

AAH

latent moss
#

than windrunner spire gloves

onyx gust
#

okay sorry

balmy kindle
#

A fair choice is crafted if you cba

latent moss
#

i mean atp u can just craft to fill slots

#

if u have the gold ofc but its pretty cheap this late into the season

shell arch
#

how often do we press slam and execute as colossus?

latent moss
#

never in aoe

#

well almost never

#

they are last resort filler

balmy kindle
#

ST just SD procs and filler( when you have full rage)

onyx gust
#

so for slayer in ST ms have little bit higher prio than slam?

balmy kindle
#

Yes because there's no other buttons to press

onyx gust
#

yeah i need to understand and study that shyt

#

on dummies

latent moss
#

i mean its simple

#

hs is always top prio

#

in aoe u dont press it cause cleave consumes it

shell arch
#

what about a macro that turns MS into HS?

latent moss
#

i dont understand the point of that macro

#

just track slam on cdm

#

u need slam bound anyway

shell arch
#

too many buttons x.x

#

my slam is in a very weird keybind shift q

latent moss
#

fix it 🤷

balmy kindle
#

I use side mouse button for slam

latent moss
#

g is focus macro

#

i will admit 3 for cleave is not ideal

#

but i got used to it

onyx gust
#

same shyt brother

#

well with ur help i get to more dmg overall in dungeon

#

but still need to learn

latent moss
#

exe should be higher unless u had no shaman

onyx gust
#

no sham

#

sadly

#

i was spamming exe like i can

#

but 1 thing if i have 2x ep on ms should u click MS instead of exe?

#

on exe part

latent moss
#

if cs is up

#

ms

#

if not then exe

#

or op

onyx gust
#

okay so 2xEP with MS only with cs up

#

got it

#

gotta learn that shyt

latent moss
#

ye

pale agate
#

when u guys send demolish in aoe, do u make sure that your sweep is up (at least one stack) or na just send ?

basically, how crucial or trivial is it if u demolish and you DONT have sweep up ?

wind hatch
fresh spire
#

You can have a very high uptime on sweep if your bouncing it around with broad sweep talented as well as the natural cast
Since you mostly send demolish with Cs you naturally have sweep up because of Cs.

Isn't many times you send it natty for those moments I wouldn't worry too much about it.

sour compass

whats the go to Raid build for Arms when there are some adds or multiple targets? the one from wowhead seem to have specced whirlwind but its not explained in the rotation. which build u guys playing in the raid? ty

soft peak
#

Colosus you play only at paladins

#

Bcs is 3 target cleave

#

Other than that slayer all boses

the ST build?

The adds are dying to fast for colosus to make a dif

What i have done for each boss i would search on wowlogs their talents and copy it

wind hatch
soft peak
#

But it doesnt make any difference

sour compass
#

yeah I might look it up

#

haste and crit flask sim pretty even for me, should I go haste if I prefer a more fast paced playstyle or does it not make any difference?

wind hatch
#

i'd go crit flask if you're using the secondary stat weapon enchants (you should) to ensure recklessness pot always gives crit

Probably running slightly more ST oriented talents in AA and skyreach tho

Hmm not sure if colos ST buff is enough though

latent moss
#

not looking good for st oriented builds

Slayer tankiness sucks ass

#

Compared to colo

#

You notice it so much on 22 / 23s

#

Also you can get funnel on first and second boss in skyreach again with phys comp

And the only key where everybody consistently plays slayer is AA, even in skyreach many play colo

Well but in the dungeons where you run it you don't really have 8 important targets

#

In skyreach it's very important for the main targets to die

stable fiber
#

drop mass exec

#

for op finish

#

mass exec is fake asf anyways lowkey

latent moss
#

overpowering finish is 0.8%

#

on st

#

thats what walhe was simming

thorn stream
#

why do i have neither mass exec or op finish ? 🤔

latent moss
#

mp is the big point

stable fiber
#

oh so mp is all the damage

#

ic

latent moss
#

btw

#

brute force is more dmg

#

on st

#

than overpowering finish

#

its like 100 dps more xd

distant echo
#

Ngl guys everyones says different, in execute phase should i only press execute? Or 2 execute > MS

hasty pumice
distant echo
#

Both

latent moss
#

on 8t*

stable fiber
#

i think

#

you wanna consume op procs ofc

#

yo i recleared lura @latent moss

#

i think its impossible to parse unless you pot p4

#

cringe

latent moss
#

gg

stable fiber
#

we are potting p4 next week

#

LFG

distant echo
#

But why should i spam exe in m+ when ur ms is increased by 70%

hasty pumice
#

Because calcs say it's better

distant echo
#

it deals more then

latent moss
#

cause its not enough

hasty pumice
distant echo
#

Dafuq

#

How

hasty pumice
#

Number bigger

distant echo
#

Ms 70% is bigger than regular execute

stable fiber
#

you dont have fierce followthrough

#

is the big one

#

or crushing force

#

which makes ms hit for less

latent moss
#

remember

#

exe crits more

distant echo
#

Grushin fore

#

Alright

#

Wait how does it crit more

hasty pumice
distant echo
#

Have i misses something

#

Missed

hasty pumice
stable fiber
#

critical thinking

#

gives it 10% crit chance

#

and slayer strikes

distant echo
#

Gotta look through them once again

stable fiber
#

each stack of executioner is 3% crit strike, crit damage, and damage on execute

#

and it stacks up to 3

distant echo
#

Oooo yeah i rember that

#

Holy

#

Remember*

stable fiber
#

yeah i highrolled my p3 damage of lura cause i had 3 stacks of executioner like the whole phase lmfao

#

260k dps chills

distant echo
#

But arent arms like rage hungry asf in execute phase

#

More haste then?

hasty pumice
#

Shaman buff and charge weaving

stable fiber
#

mostly just shaman buff

#

dont rely on charge weaving

distant echo
#

It sucks to rely on a buff from another class

onyx gust
#

i shouldnt compare my dps to raidbot simulate dps right?

stable fiber
#

then go hit a target dummy

onyx gust
#

yeah but sim version have all buffs on him xD

stable fiber
#

thats gonna be the most accurate you can get of out of raid combat

#

the target dummy sim removes those!

onyx gust
#

ah cool

stable fiber
onyx gust
#

still learning raidbots and this game xD

stable fiber
#

bud

#

only rank 5 cause i didnt pot p4 for +150k p4 dps

tacit crystal
#

cope

stable fiber
#

chud moment

#

the r1 log does 620k dps in p4

#

i only did 500k

#

wtf!?

tacit crystal
#

gg

stable fiber
#

dude he had the perfect kill holy shit

#

everyone lives to the execute of p4 then like 3 people die

#

so he gets more execute time

tacit crystal
#

how do i get more sd in gathers

#

or how do i get dks to not wxplode a pack before i get a second bs

hasty pumice
tacit crystal
#

shit game

stable fiber
#

yo btw

tacit crystal
#

blwo up

stable fiber
#

does sd proc more in aoe?

tacit crystal
#

probably

#

since you are getting more slayer strikes

stable fiber
#

i am?

#

lmao

#

does each individual hit of cleave have a chance to proc slayer strikes i havent noticed

tacit crystal
#

wym i am

stable fiber
#

or is it sweep

tacit crystal
#

@latent moss

stable fiber
#

it says primary target

#

makes me think its sweep

onyx gust
#

if i did Same dmg only like +200dmg more than sim that mean i play rotation good? XD

stable fiber
#

probably yeah

onyx gust
#

holy shyt

stable fiber
#

oh its fervor im so dumb

#

lmao

onyx gust
#

what

stable fiber
#

disregard talking about something else

onyx gust
#

sory boss

latent moss
#

i didnt know how bs cdr worked for a very long time

stable fiber
#

nah it makes sense

latent moss
#

how does slayers strrike proc

#

even

#

what does your attacks

#

mean

#

auto asttacks or all attacks

stable fiber
#

abilities have a 15% chance

#

not auto attacks

latent moss
#

cause apex says your melee single target ABILITIES

stable fiber
#

so what is happening and why bs cdr feels way better on aoe

#

is

latent moss
#

on dummies i did notice slayers strike perma proccing

stable fiber
#

the primary hit of cleave on your target has a 15% chance to proc a slayer strike

latent moss
#

when i press cleave

stable fiber
#

but the fervor of battle also has a 15% chance

#

SS has a icd though

#

so it becomes a 30% every time you cleave

#

so you get much more consistent ss procs on aoe

#

hold, ill actually check a key too see if the icd thing is true

#

i think it is

#

fast way to lvlup a toon is still delve/dungeon spam? not gonna buy any kind of boost

fleet nexus
#

Is there any way to get the training dummy toy for keys (Mythic+) right now?

sour compass
#

I had like 20k marls from my mains and bought 20 of the caches and instantly was 240 + 4set

stable fiber
#

let me find a good example of it

#

so the icd shit you guys figured out with executioners precision applies to slayer strikes as well while cleaving but its not because of your gcd being too fast

#

fervor happens .600 ms after the cleave

latent moss
#

hmm

stable fiber
#

the initial hit of cleave can proc slayer strikes on your main target, and so can the fervor slam

#

but if the cleave procs the slayer strikes it goes on a icd and the slam cant proc it

#

if the cleave doesnt proc it then the fervor can proc it normally

balmy kindle
#

Interesting

stable fiber
#

so its just a 30% proc chance every cleave to proc slayer strikes

#

which is kinda nice

#

i would prefer if it worked with like a 2.25% chance to proc both when you cleave

#

15% x 15%

#

but both could still proc

#

it seems to have a icd around .800 milliseconds

#

usually they are like 1 second or so

balmy kindle
#

Kinda big if true, means slayer strike technically benefits from funnelmonkahmm

sour compass
#

you basically spam bonus rolls in pit right?

balmy kindle
#

Yeah pos is a good one for starters

sour compass
#

❤️

balmy kindle
#

If you strike garfrost or wedding ring okayge

sour compass
#

yeah looking for these 2 and set pieces

#

like 3/4 set pieces, belt aint that bad too right? neck is ok too I guess?

balmy kindle
#

Yeah neck is near bis too

sour compass
#

should be a fun week :3

latent moss
#

belt is insane

sour compass
#

have all the rolls from start

latent moss
#

neck is bis basically

#

salhadaar neck is w/e

#

u gain some crit lose some haste

#

irrelevant

sour compass
#

sure, I craft cloak frist right?

latent moss
#

yeah

sour compass
#

cool then I am all set for mythics this week 🙂

stable fiber
#

why does slayer strikes have to be on the icd as well

#

cringe

wild fractal
#

should I have execute on top damage as slayer in m+ ?

thick kelp
#

ish

stable fiber
#

if there is bosses with big damage amps (or just a lot of bosses in general) execute can tend to be higher since you can have execute inside damage amps which causes you to have execute go crazy

#

think like lura in seat

#

also good rng vs bad rng

wild fractal
#

got it ty

leaden garnet
#

I only play Slayer in AA and SR (and next reset I may just play Colo in every key). My damage breakdown is typically like this, with the top four trading places basically according to RNG (including tank skill RNG)

Hi,
In aoe, how to you monitor that rend buff is up or not on all target ?
Using the buff tracker only show on the target, but target rend get refreshed while others don't

latent moss

nameplates

# latent moss nameplates

Arf that's what I thought, a shame we can't have it with all the buff and spell tracking as we used to do back in weakaura era

latent moss
#

idk i always used nameplates for rend tracking in aoe

stable fiber
#

I use cdm and nameplates

There are 2 popular qol addons and i think itrulia has this

distant coyote
#

whats the gap between slayer and colossus in m+

wild fractal
late lantern
#

questio for both Slayer and Colo in m+ do we just send cd's on cd? sometimes it feel a bit weird as colossus smash is up but BS is not for a while so i wont get it in there unless u get 4 or more procs in a row.

With colo its better to send on cd in aoe as u get stacks quick and get to use demo but in ST that is not the case, do we hold or just send aswell?

thick kelp
#

cs on cd and others with CS

#

on aoe u can demo on cd

#

in St pair demo with cs always

#

hello

#

as colo

desert briar
#

Why is my dmg as slayer in first pulls so ass

latent moss
#

ur strength is having cds every pack

#

cds not very strong but low cd

desert briar
#

Hm i see

#

I cba i guess, next week col only

#

And fuck skyreach

latent moss
#

col doesnt do very good in first pulls either

scenic umbra
#

Try profane if you wanna do first pull

#

🤣

hasty pumice
#

That's definitely not bad

#

It's not druid but

latent moss
#

ye its not insane but its not bad either

hasty pumice
#

Definitely strong. You just really have to prestack quickly

latent moss
#

is what i was trying to say

hasty pumice
#

The prestack and double demolish within the first CS is the big gamechanger

#

Without that the first pull is way worse

dim basalt
#

pre-stacking in pugs kekw

#

50% of tanks in pugs just bodypull

#

For hours I listened to guildies complain about pug tanks because they kept aggroing just by using Consume or Spinning Crane Kick

#

FOTM tanks 3-4 key levels below top are completely dogshit

hasty pumice
sour compass
hasty pumice
#

I do it every single key

dim basalt
#

sure but my point still stands

#

They do the absolute minimum

hasty pumice
ashen night
#

god yes.. had a guardian just run by not doing anything while gathering. i thought i missed him using skills.. pressed rend and instantly died even though he was on his way to 3rd Pack

hasty pumice
#

If the tank only body pulls, do it with parry and then meld

scenic umbra
#

You must pre stack

#

If a tank cant hold an ms

#

Or a cleave

hasty pumice
#

If you don't trust yourself nor the tank

#

Just don't do it

scenic umbra
#

Abandon inmediatly

hasty pumice
#

It doesn't matter outside of high keys

scenic umbra
#

And insult them

#

Be a man

latent moss
#

just send a 0 stack demolish

hasty pumice
#

With regular tanks you can do op ms like 3-4x before you get threat if they use two GCDs

latent moss
#

on opener

dim basalt
#

If a DDH gets aggro with just consume with bear or monk tanks

#

its so gg

hasty pumice
#

Listen to him guys

latent moss
#

thats what i do

#

cm isnt what it used to be in tww anyway

hasty pumice
#

That sounds horrid

scenic umbra
#

Not warrior behaviour tbh

#

Pre-stack agro die and leave

hasty pumice
#

That doesn't sound worth it

scenic umbra
#

Be a warrior.

latent moss
#

well u get 2 demos in first cs

hasty pumice
#

From what I've seen from other arms like biz, it's definitely better to wait like 5 secs even mid pull til you are almost max stacks

#

Then cs into ravaged spam cleave

#

And then fully stacked demo

scenic umbra
#

You can get two stacked demos in first CS

latent moss
#

probably simmable

hasty pumice
#

And I can speak for myself I'm hitting way higher numbers on first pulls that way

#

Than immediately sending

latent moss
#

yeah but u open on the pack wiht 10 stacks no

scenic umbra
#

And you can use swepping when timer starts

#

Normally 6-8

#

I dont wait till 10

dim basalt
#

I need to push again but I also cba

hasty pumice
scenic umbra
#

I wait till the stack all the mobs

hasty pumice
#

Then I do triple cleave

scenic umbra
#

Then blast

hasty pumice
#

Ye

#

Just watch biz's first pulls

#

I do exactly what he does

scenic umbra
#

Yeah

#

Depends dung as well

hasty pumice
#

Ofc

scenic umbra
#

Maisara you aleays stack to 10

#

Nexus as well

hasty pumice
#

But I get it done in every dungeon minus AA

scenic umbra
#

Bcs it takes longer to group

#

But no rule

hasty pumice
#

Cause in AA I played slayer lul

scenic umbra
#

Sometimes I shit self and can only do 4 stscks

latent moss
#

is imminent demise stackable in aa

scenic umbra
#

But max i have done is 19

#

I havent pushed

latent moss
#

prestackable i mean

dim basalt
#

Has anyone here played with pwar in 20+ recently

latent moss
#

sim sends demo after 3 cleaves

#

cs cleave x3 demo

scenic umbra
#

What

#

That sounds stupid

#

Demo gives dmg

#

Sim is drunk

latent moss
#

u put cleave on cd

dim basalt
#

Its the cleave cd

scenic umbra
#

Three three cleaves give you stacks

dim basalt
#

But Im sure the diff is very marginal

latent moss
#

same argument we had in here ages ago with slayer

scenic umbra
#

To be able to doble demolish

latent moss
#

yes u cs then 3 cleaves then demolish

scenic umbra
#

Sims for sure doesnt see that you are racing with your colossus debuff

#

Nah that cant be true

#

Sounds based

#

Im sure of you dont send the cleaves after

latent moss
#

u have 0 stacks on opener

#

in sims

scenic umbra
#

You dont have time to double demolish in a cd window

#

Ah

#

Then maybe

#

But in a real scenario

latent moss
#

actions.colossus_aoe+=/demolish,if=buff.colossal_might.stack=10&(debuff.colossus_smash.remains>2|cooldown.colossus_smash.remains>10)
actions.colossus_aoe+=/cleave
actions.colossus_aoe+=/demolish,if=debuff.colossus_smash.remains>=2

scenic umbra
#

Pre stack - smash - demolish and cleavex3

hasty pumice
#

I can just say from own experience that it feels way stronger to prestack because if you send early you'll likely miss 2-4 mobs

scenic umbra
#

If you do otherwise i doubt you ll get anothr demolish in cs

latent moss
#

prestacking while tank is gathering ye

hasty pumice
#

You have time to prestack anyways

scenic umbra
#

Yeah

#

And you can sweep before timer

latent moss
#

if its already gathered ure just wasting time

scenic umbra
#

So you have it again after stacks aere down

hasty pumice
#

Then you're doing it wrong

#

At some point the tank has threat from all the mobs and they aren't stacked yet

#

Going in with 0 stacks is troll

scenic umbra
#

And we hit like a wet noodle

#

So why not pre stack

latent moss
#

im saying if it happens

scenic umbra
#

Is not like thande

#

Thane

hasty pumice
#

Most of the tanks semi range pull one pack to the huge pulls

#

During that time you can always prestack

#

If you're worried about threat, parry or reset it with meld

#

I hear from friends in 20s that their warriors always die on prestacking

novel raven
hasty pumice
#

I never have any issues

novel raven
#

wasting wall on it specifically

hasty pumice
#

Why

#

You live everything with Def stance if needed

latent moss
#

i dont see a world where u just die as colo arms in a pack

novel raven
#

like ya, if i pull while pre building i wall

hasty pumice
#

While gaining a ton of damage with parry

novel raven
#

but i think going in planning to parry it is bad

hasty pumice
#

You trade a Def cd for massive damage

#

When we have infinite Def CDs

#

We have perma 30% DR if needed

#

And you gain way more than you lose from quickly stance dancing

novel raven
#

im not even saying your wrong, ofc its optimal from a key/dps perspective

hasty pumice
#

I'm doing fine with that strat in 22s / 23s

novel raven
#

but i think this is one of those things that telling the audience that didnt alrdy think/plan to do it

hasty pumice
#

I don't see how it's terrible advice when I also see other people on that level do it

novel raven
#

is bad

scenic umbra
#

I think it can be reduced to if you are doing below 18/19 its completely irrelevant

hasty pumice
#

The only time that advice is bad imo

#

Is in seat first pull

scenic umbra
#

And better send 0 stacks

hasty pumice
#

You wanna keep meld there for heal absorb

#

Cause meld gets rid of the massive heal absorb

scenic umbra
#

Above that if you are not prestacking you are terri trolling

hasty pumice
#

That's the only time where i wouldn't use meld for stacking

novel raven
#

meld is fine

latent moss
#

meld is a bigger defensive on that pack

hasty pumice
#

Exactly

scenic umbra
#

Ragebait actually

latent moss
#

that absorb is unreal

scenic umbra
#

Hahahaha

novel raven
#

i wasnt talking about that pull exactly.....

#

im saying the advice for the general audience of this discord

hasty pumice
#

Brother I don't mean to be condescending but so far I don't see why you're trying to invalidate my advice

novel raven
#

telling them to meld to prestack 👍

#

telling them to wall to prestack

hasty pumice
#

The general audience in this discord plays 12-18 keys

novel raven
#

probably not good for them

hasty pumice
#

Where it doesn't matter if you use meld or defs

scenic umbra
#

Exactly

latent moss
#

u can probably eat melees

hasty pumice
#

Cause you survive everything by pressing Def stance guaranteed

latent moss
#

in those keys

hasty pumice
#

Yes

latent moss
#

unless u get crit

#

with def stance u live melees easily

hasty pumice
#

With ilvl 285-290 I'd be hard pressed if you die through Def stance

latent moss
#

bro

#

how dumb is stance mastery

hasty pumice
#

Your parry will likely not be very useful in keys lower than 18

#

Why not use it

#

For DPS gain

#

Your point would make more sense if it was the other way around

#

The higher the key the more value a Def cd has

latent moss
hasty pumice
#

And yet even in the highest keys we use parry for stacking

latent moss
#

skillful defensive

#

👍

hasty pumice
#

I don't understand your issue with my advice

novel raven
#

i think this is just the classic touch of karma argument, where good players will optimize dps out of karma because they will correctly play everything else well

latent moss
#

ok but bro

novel raven
#

and then you have people in guilds who struggling to cutting edge popping karma and standing in puddles

latent moss
#

ure a warrior

#

on top of being a warrior

#

ure colossus

hasty pumice
#

You're ignoring Def stance

latent moss
#

u can just press nothing up to 20s

#

and never die

novel raven
#

when they can just actually have an extra o shit button

hasty pumice
#

Tell me what are you going to die to with Def stance up

latent moss
#

taunt tank buster with no spell reflect

hoooly

hasty pumice

I never have parry there

latent moss
#

how broken is warrior

#

wtf

hasty pumice
#

And never died from damage

novel raven
#

i just pulled that in +23 like 30mins ago

#

and felt like having wall was very nice

hasty pumice
#

Okay if you prestack there's a chance that the pack dies quicker when people are out of Def CDs

#

Preventing more deaths

novel raven
#

even if you live with sr/dtsance

hasty pumice
#

You survive everything
