Can funnel easy in most dungeons without doing cringe shit
sure, but the point here is on colo warrior you can actually have supreme or any other insane player on the class get the "standard" funnel
and get gapped by 20 other players getting the FULL funnel
Im just making a point to help him do more in his keys
If he hasnt been doing so already
sure, i def just went on a tangent
To be fair I probs should ask my tanks to do funnel I don’t really ask them to change their route lol
Groups in 19s and 20s are not doing full degen funnel shit
I usually look at their route but more just so I know what to expect
Yes, literally just ask for funnel
if your current 4p includes gloves, and you do a topgear sim without an alternative tier piece to make a new 4p, any gloves you try to compare will be horrible as you are losing the 4p bonus
voidclaw will almost certainly be better than tier gloves if you have 4p in the other slots
funny that I tried to do that and it still ended up saying that I will lose 1,3k dps by equiping those
probably gonna take a guess that my crafted items have something to do with this cuz I have haste and mastery on them
The question is why do you expect the gloves to be good in an aoe sim?
They have never been part of the BiS list iirc so certainly it shouldnt be surprising theyre not simming more than alternatives
Especially in aoe where stats will matter more than a random low damage ST proc
simming ST right before u mentioned that
Dont expect much of a gain if anything
hope I do
anything but the crit vers cloak
The neck from pit?
Alleria neck
Either way seat gloves are incredibly minor gain for ST
Using my own character as an example they were only a 250 DPS gain in ST over same ilvl Crit haste gloves. And aoe of course it's a decent loss
is unhinged together with sweeping strikes not working? i keep noticing it on lura progress
You cannot sweep unhinged
was this always the case? my bad
It wasn't for like 2 weeks in TWW beta but yeah been like that for awhile
ty
Dungeon route (not slice) simming any good for arms?
what would be the best way to sim for m+? 5 min 1 boss and 5 min 5 boss?
Simming for M+ is always gonna be taken with a grain of salt but just do a St and aoe sim and set the time to your avg kill time. For most 3 min ST 40-1min aoe
and sim patchwerk
guys, gonna do vaelgor and ezzorak mythic soon, and I have a question : if I can't pad a lot on the adds, do I stick to colossus or do I go a 2 target slayer build (or maybe a build similar to slayer dungeon) ?
colo > slayer on mythic dragons regardless if you pad on orbs or no
ok thanks 👍
I love meld
Who of you said after 20 there is more phys groups 
Yep, thats the same experience i got
Tbh I think i cba. 20 resil should be 1% end of season i hope
on NA? Probably
on EU? Probably not
Maybe with 1-2 21s
We still have a while for S1, we still have sporefall and we will still see a bunch of high end sellruns late in the season
3780 already is cutoff, resi 20 is like.. 3890? It most likely goes past that until the end
It's even better when the phys comp groups take Ret over warrior too
Unlucky. Time to run my own key again i guess
Surprise surprise the higher you go in the pugging community more and more meta specific it becomes
Who coulda guessed

@latent moss yo
minus the lura ring and ignoring the ST sim for ring set bonus
i think
im kinda full bis on colo
vibing
how's colo feeling for you lot? i still think i prefer slayer in most keys ngl
only way to get those trinket in myt track is from mythic raid right?
Gg game refuses to give me the haste mastery one next week I get it guaranteed
Yes but it's also from bosses that are easy to pug at this point
I’ll be kinda bis just missing trinkets 😭
dw game refuses to give me rage in execute
did u see the ss
i was doing more damage outside of exe
👍
xD I've had that happen to me on voarsius too. But game blessed me with a rank 3 parse last night
Helped this time got some add pad in execute
And this is why I say it's impossible to balance rage with current arms design. Too many rng levers out of your control.
Just give up and let rage be meaningless like in df and TWW or actually rework the spec completely

I gave up on raiding
we getting there
takes too much time
i was gonna say remove rage and make our limitation the cd of abilities, but then idk what they do with exe
So is it colossus all the way or still slayer in AA and skyreach?
maybe slayer in AA. rest col
I loved it
But man if you're not clearing it in a good pace it can drag so long
But too high raiding requires like 4-5 day commitment
And tbh keys are more fun anyways hehe
Yeah if it was up to me I prefer a more creative full rework. My idea was turn rage for arms into a ddh style mechanic and tie it with a CD. So everything generates rage like fury. Build full rage pop a CD that steroid buffs you but instead of trying to maintain for as long as possible like ddh it just slowly decays. Something simple and satisfying. Can do a lot of interesting things with that. Like certain CDs that only work in rage mode or something or other unique effects.
full on arms rework and fury apex rework. the dream
i feel like i actualy kinda do damage in st with colossus now
well, still nothing compared to like actual meta specs, but like at least it isn't tank damage anymore XD
im in
sign me up
Does Bloodlust's 30% haste count toward Reck pot's snapshot the same way Hunt / Lura / Guidon / Berserker Rage do? Asking because pot-on-pull + lust-on-pull would push crit-stat builds into a haste roll if so.
Irrc pot is based off of rating
Not %
So no
Very helpful, thank you!
My crit is shit tho 😔
nice shadowlands mog though ngl
Everyone uses it 😂😂 I still like it tho
Are the gloves that good tho?? The seat ones?? Haste mastery just for that dumb proc
Got them in the vault
HC raiding is about 1-2 evenings per week. Max.
And it's very far from high raiding lol
Not dog but not the bestest
gives u some extra boss dam ig
I will just rock them for now I guess until I get the option to swap out
I don't think hes talking about heroic man lol
Im talking about mythic ^^
Nah. Not worth it. Hard pass.
Hc prog raiding might be the most worthless time spent in this game
how much haste/crit u guys have without buffs?
991 crit 1065 haste
wdym
I am not playing the game
That's almost every encounter as melee without an immunity tbf
At least the glaives aren't fully deterministic so you need to pay a little attention
enjoy p3 waiting room
Atleast my spec does dam in p3
actual p3 waiting room for us to come online
o there it is 😄
Idk I fall asleep on heroic even in prog
also like mythic raiding is the most worth it activity in this game if you are talking like gear wise
To be fair the bonus rolls really did a good job countering that
the guild im trialing for never killed Lura on heroic. Just mythic xD
I dont think it's ever been this easy to be equally geared as raiders
same lol
I hope they bring back bonus rolls
Definitely a fan too
i do like bonus rolls a lot but they feel a little strong
perhaps thats just because I got insanely lucky tho 
bonus rolls is a fine middle ground if they really dont like us just buying gear with dinar
I cant get the npx haste mastery ring gotta wait till I can guaranteed get it next week

Bonus rolls are way better that dinars when it comes to general gear
Even more so for alts
mostly alts yeah
just grab all ur rolls and go live in dungeons while you farm crests
Problem with dinar is u still gotta raid
Right now you dont
Thats cap. Both bis trinks are from raid
still gotta raid if u need trinkets but yeah bonus rolls help you get a ton of myth track loot
You dont HAVE to perse
Dungeon alternatives are strong enough
and this too
even if you wanted raid loot, pray its like this season and the good trinkets are puggable bosses 😄
Do you have any responsabilities other than not dying in p1? 🙂
I have a kick
Im back up kick but have to do it often enough
I either roll for solarflare now to upgrade my heroic heart or... idk, wherever fury rolls gear ig
think Im gloves and NPX ring from BIS BIS
i'm think i am top tier target audience for those rolls lmao, starting this season i jsut wanted to max heroic for full set and then just do smthg else because waiting each week for 3 random M+ slots since i don't do mythic raid was annoying. It got me wanting to play more gg
Kinda surprised the NPX rings are better for me in Colossus even in AoE over the ring from Pit
if i were to want the most bursty warrior dps possible for nuking normal dungeons to help a friend with leveling, would i go arms or fury? and which hero spec?
id go thane fury
not reliant on prestacking anything, you just push cooldowns and go
also can aoe in a big circle instead of a frontal
ok, fury question then, is a 298 1h and hero 1h better than 2 champ 2handers?
go 2 champ 2 handers
idk sim question but i think 1 handers are dead
like 95% sure
pretty sure they gut reasons to ever use 1 handers in fury now

is it worth to void upgrade this shyt? or try to drop hero track trinket
cant upgrade champion trinkets
only hero and myth
Gm
Ladies, gentlefolk and everything in between how are ya this evening?
you realise this was over a day ago

xD
not my issue you cant read
warrior btw
i never said respond to it
like u can read
bro acts like he reads better than me just cuz he got glasses in his pfp
i just wanted you to have a chuckle
How’s the buffs feeling boys
u can yes
Roger that
well not bad i think
lost 2 rolls sadly
wtf really plume 263 is better than box 276?s
Hello everyone im new to this discord, is there any posts regarding the fact that orc arms warriors have no impact sounds on abilities? There was a wowhead forum post about it with a blue post on it but its been weeks and I still have no impact sounds
Change to female
Fixes it
Just one of the many random problems this expansion
passive trinket very nice for a spec that doesnt really burst
tahts weird
is that a meme answer or are you saying change to female and change back
gotta drop plume or gaze on hero track then
orc female sounds work, male sounds dont
i figured as much, so basically i should go pound sand
yeah it sucks
guys, u ever cast cleave on less than 3 targets or just have sweeps up and do ST rotation? in M+ colossus
generally in 2T you just do your single target rotation with ss
you can use cleave as a filler over slam if you have 3 stacks of collat but thats the only time you press it
ic ty
Can reflect green puddles in academy?
Why is slarms performing better then slayer fury on lura
way better execute
aka its boss damage is far better in general
Is there a damage amp in the later phases?
yes
p3 and p4 are both a damage amp
p3 is a execute damage amp, pretty sure arms does the most dps out of all the specs in that phase
frost dk is close
p4 is fdk and arms
Ahh k i see
then p4 is i think 3x damage and a giant haste buff
i dont actually know lmao
but i do around 4x my normal dps in that phase
Ill have to have a look at execute prio but i imagine its still exec precision stack the ms
in raid yes
But cheers good to know will make the switch
Yeh it felt better then arms in p1
Adds die so fast
Cant full bs them
But saw in logs arms was doing well so assumed there was a later phase amp
what is causing my cleave button to light up on my cdm sometimes while I'm in ST
are you hitting another target with sweeping strikes
yeah itll happen on the emissary if youre in m+
I was in a delve killing the last boss, there might have been an add pop up
is there a talent that suddenly makes cleave glow?
collateral damage
yup, dont worry about pressing it in Single Target, but you can press it when lit in 2+ targets
Okay cool, so even at 3 stacks it's not worth for 1
Luckily that's correct, cleave is finally dead in single target 🙏
Glad y'all mains don't have to deal with that anymore 😄
tbh i didn't really pay it much attention beforehand either. I'd just press it during Ravager, but even that's dead now
I'm having so much fun leveling as slayer
moreso than colossus, but im hoping that once ive gotten comfy with slayer the other spec will feel a bit more natural
colo is an acquired taste
u dont wanna know
A little confused here, Archon has all the top builds running Colossus, but IV recommends Slayer in all content
slayer is better for pugging
colo is just better if u can get funnel on bosses
Ah
So for keys wouldnt Colossus be better in general since AoE damage is more valuable than ST in keys?
not much to it
bad st can int keys
and colo st is quite bad
you can play either and do good tbh
also true
Is one significantly easier to play than the other?
I will probably start there until I get more comfortable then
smart decision
no one should start with colo if they are new
very fast way to drop the spec
Well, the plus side as far as colossus goes is that Im a prot main, so I do have some experience with the hero tree, just not as arms
i dont have much experience with colo prot but i played it idk when was it
tww s2 or s3 i dont remember
it was like
vastly better than thane
brutal vitality press ip once spam revenge and it keeps ip up
but colo arms is quite different
ngl i did exactly that. Came back to it fortunately and gave arms a try with slayer instead. Crazy how much changes between the 2
"feels" changes at least
yeah
I really like execute. The last time i played warrior was in shadowlands and just in pvp and I was just absolutely mashing that vampire execute charge thing
condemn?
Is the battlelord setup viable as well? Kind of getting tired of the execute spam and some groups don’t like to target one mob down to 35% as much as others
is +14 like the elo hell? i get either tanks with horrible routes or dds that die left and right and are below tank in dmg (or both)
LOTS of dps can be carried kicking and screaming to 14 somehow
I get dudes pulling 65k overall in those keys when im healing sometimes
I'm at 16s aand even here is pretty bad lol
16 is 3400 range right?
Anything that is in range of that achievement is going to be bad
that's about the range where kicks/interrupts/mechanics start to matter and it can be a bit of an awaking to a lot of folks
A lot of really bad players that normally brute force 3k are now doing the same for 3.4k
I never get what's supposed to be so different and hard about colo arms, you press colo smash, you don't press execute, you save ravager for aoe and spam cleave
It's not too different than slayer
You have big damage abilities that can miss. Also Demolish gets you in some precarious spots at times
Add in that CDs tend to desync and it’s sorta harder IMO
whats the gist of how slarms works in m+? I've not much practice in it but I felt like my BS wasn't lining up with CS that well
That's true the CDs are more all over the place
more minmaxing
BS and CS use two entirely different cooldown mechanics. CS is lowered by spending rage. Bladestorm is lowered very randomly when casting Sudden Death. This means they're going to naturally desync, unfortunately.
If your BS comes back up, hold it for your next CS, unless CS is already applied
so basically send CS whenever up but hold BS for CS
How is arms playing in st raid wise are you sending ava > cs > bs
Then sending cs when it comes back up
Back to holding for ava > cs > bs again?
Dont hold for ava
Never hold cs
Think of cs like ur cd checkpoint
If u have a cd, you send it with cs
So you hold other cds for cs not other way round?
So if bs comes up i hold it until my next cs comes up?
Yes
Heya whats verdict for running colo in raids now after the buffs? Just asking because im switching over from Outlaw and just generally love colo. How far behind is it in boss ST compared to slayer? Sorry but I can't find an answer anywhere
For boss st its not even worth a mention
Its still horrendous st, colo is almost strictly an aoe spec
Lucky for you, we're in a cleave tier and at least mythic dragons and paladins are pretty good for colo
We do hold bs for cs tho?
we palying slayer in sky reach still?
Biz did a cpl skyreaches as colo this morning I didnt get to watch all of it tho can maybe check the VoD
Thats what I said?
I'm asking, not arguing
does haste ever outweight crit for us? i currently have 1104 cr and 1035 haste (buffed) on sims its quite similar
i thought crit would always exceed haste in value since we are so rage starved so we can only cast so much and crit makes us do big dam
at least colo is almost always rage starved in ST and slayer is pretty rage starved in execute phase
Is there a rule of thumb of when to start aoe damage rotation when the tank initially pulls and starts gathering packs? I feel like I'm losing damage uptime by waiting too long to start smashing my cleave button but I don't want to rip aggro
(also M+)
just send it bro

Is this priority list still correct for the Slayer M+ build on single target? I'm running critical thinking, massacre, and stance mastery instead of battlelord and crushing force.
this is the prio list for the m+ slayer build
excluding all the cooldowns
as slayer not really
but i like to get it up when i cant really use cleave or else ill pull threat
its free damage
as colossus you still want to keep rend up because it needs more rage
gotcha, thanks. Isn't overpower higher prio than MS outside of exe though?
imo i think that part isnt full right, it should be more like
heroic strike
sudden death
(if you have 2 charges of overpower) overpower
mortal strike
(if you have 1 charge of overpower) overpower
rend
slam
.
during colossus smash though id use MS over overpower
this spec has too many niche slight little rotation changes
its annoying
meanwhile ddh has the same rotation in aoe and st
I agree lol I guess just pressing something is better than downtime but gotcha thanks
It's crazy how perfect Pit of Saron is for bonus rolling an arms alt
crit/haste all over the place
and waepon too
6 of the items from that dungeon are true bis
1 is almost bis
1 sucks
its pretty good yeah
considering i don't plan to raid at all, what a treasure trove
what about cds
do u always save bs for warbreaker
or only avatar with cs
bs off cd
this is also different from raid to m+ lmao
because you get way more BS cdr in m+
oki ^^
and also only avatar with CS
thank you king
How are we feeling after buff still slayer on AA and SR?
is there any way to escape or avoid the bird grab in last boss of Skyreach?
should i work more on haste or crit? raidbot not telling me shit
yes
if you get a sd proc a couple seconds after the interrupts spawn
you can hold it and it’ll last long enough for you to use after bladestorm
Just let robot guide you don't over think it
Is colossus the move on all keys now or nah
idk where to look at it
droptimizer?
to check with stat should i chase
This I been asking no reply
It's probably the best on all besides AA if you get proper funnel
Seat and Spire you can swap specs at the end for more ST on the last bosses
fuck belo man
is the way to parse that meaning you just basically have to 3 target cleave the whole time/
Maybe not AA. the rest for sure
as slayer can i dream of 18+?
or that wont happen till i swap to awful vomiting demolish
hi all i need a guide for arms in raid, plz if annyone know, and a pov
yes, why wouldnt you?
you still play 22 aa and skyreach as slayer anyway
19 MC as slayer

@latent moss had a fucking insane first pull btw on that 19 MC my first ever 2 BS in one CS
insane procs out my mind
that's unethical
So...is there currently an issue with Deep Wounds not applying?
be a little more specific
cool to see taht number
i never gonna hit that
but nice toi know is possible
i bet this is another case of someone thinking slam applies it no matter what
It's not
okok i'm very curious now
So, for example, I have talented into Decimator
its a bit propaganda because its not a completed run xD but yes Slayer still does great damage and if its something you rather play over colo you can very much time high keys with it
And the tooltip states that the final hit applies Deep Wounds at 100% effectiveness.
There are a couple other talents that mention applying deep wounds. But it never appears as an active bleed on a target.
think default nameplates hides DW
because theres no reason to track it
so thats likely it look at the mob debuffs
when you target it
Platynator and PlaterNameplates both hide deepwounds in the Bars aswell
i mean im such a no hander with colo XD
slayer is my best
so far 170k oveall is pb
but still i think lack of dmg kills my run
whats the key level? either way yeah 100k is pretty damn low
13 pos
with 280 ilvl
thats why i dont touch colo
Why SR? Pugs never bring funnel for bosses
i just dont get the cooldown cut
proper comp buffs tho really add up, but if dmg is low and you are confident in your button priorities. Then most comon problems people have is general wow mechanics such as uptime, positioning and CD usage.
send that bitch on CD
just send it especially if you are in aoe
if things feel overcomplicated then simplify it
just send on CD dont think
invis skip for last boss seems more common now, but i guess if pugs aren't bringing funnel stay slayer. i think skyreach is significantly less risky to bring funnel into bosses than algethar(for the bosses you can)
well i need to do some 10's to learn that spec
but is it worth tho? need to question my self
tbh learn in like 15s and 16s if you are already comfy with those key levels. Things actually live a bit and is a more real key scenario. you really arent gonna build any positive habbits in a 10 even 12
1st boss we're pretty decent at. 1st pull yea... you're just there for the prio damage
What your dps on 1st pull mine seems 350-400k
not done an algethar in forever hahah. i basically raidlog atm, not a fan of this season
ive been having a blast doing keys this season
i've timed 20s and my aa is a 15
warrior good and I like almost all the dungeons
i never been so overwhelmed in my life than this season and expansion tbh
with warrior
i only do keys if somebody messages me asking to lol
but I do really enjoy them
i think i'm too angry at the raid to enjoy keys. probably will stop now that we're on lura tho, voidspire utterdogshit garbage ass raid
you really feel the caster shrink from TWW and Midnight. I feel like every key is kind of a chill vibe
true
reminds me of how crazy priory was
10000 casters every pull
ruby life pools holy moly(yes i know that was df)
you can do 150k actual single target to that first boss, and you should be topping vile lasher damage
let guardian pad on the small lashers
JUST IN TIME TO BRING IT BACK FOR S2
i'd be down. would be an insane key for col
they remake RLP they have to remove like half the mobs from it
and replace with non casters
Maybe change dragons too
rlp was my first 20 in df somehow
Ok my job is just kill vile let others pad
correct
and that's what arms does to 1st boss
given you utilise mouseover execute on the tree and small adds
yee anyone who flames you for first pull AA they are stupid because you are doing the dmg that matters and thats killing Lashers as fast as possible so your tank doesnt die
i keep waiting for them to bring us like a really really bad set of dungeons and i can just skip that season. temple of sethralis,toldagor, spires of ascension. idk the last one maybe uldaman but that one is personal
Temple, toldagor, spires and lets throw in necrotic wake just to fuck with us
OH WAIT NO
SANGUINE DEPTHS
Please not spire of ascension again
Okay so you want plaguefall back instead
i am in the small amount of people that liked sanguine depths(after it got nerfed)
Shadowland had a ton of utter shite dungeons 
Some good ones to but the shite ones were really bad
Alright take that
But so many bad dungeons
Best were okay ones like halls
Literally if blizz ever just said fuck it and put 4 shadowlands dungeon in i wouldnt play
De other side, spires...
we've had most of the slands dungeons recently. de other side,plaguefall,sanguine depths and spires are remaining
on bosses you vantus do you still reck pot
you can sim it
for me the answer is still yes but always sim it for yourself cus its pretty close
Is there a chance death recaps can be wrong?
I died first pull of AA because I got a Vile Bite for some reason with the tank alive
Then the rogue in my group said I lied and that the log showed me dying to a leap
Yes actually
Death recaps dont show your own
They show whoever died most recently irrx
I even had the personal aura from BigWigs pop up with the tank hit before I went from 100% to dead
How early into the pull
At the end the tank was kiting
they are wrong all the time. i've had it say i died to ebon might several times in raid
Idk man I am certain I ate a Vile Bite
If the tank is too far away will it target a close melee?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/31YHTD4kdmzPpRJQ?fight=23
my Slayer Arms DPS is insanely low.
Can any Arms Warrior pros tell me if my rotation is the problem or if I’m messing something else up? Please 😭
Could you guys check my logs while ignoring the death counts?
I’m trying to figure out why my DPS barely scales compared to other people. When I watch good Arms Warrior players on YouTube, their DPS just keeps climbing like crazy, but mine feels completely stuck.
I honestly can’t tell if it’s my rotation, uptime, positioning, or something else. Any experienced Arms Warrior players able to take a look and help me out? 🙏
Do I press cleave on 2t cleave like duo in spire?
only time you ever press cleave is if you have 3 stacks of collateral damage as a filler over slam
otherwise you just do your st rotation
kk ty 😄
i don't even know if we do that anymore as col after the buff
might be close but im pretty sure we do
pretty small optimization though
hmh slam 20.4k tooltip, cleave 16.8k plus 75% so 29.4. but slam has higher crit rate, applies deep wounds if crit and has a chance to proc hs
Slarms 10 spire, should i be using more OP on larger packs or continue to focus on removing the more dangerous mobs?
What button does your heart want to press?
execute
tbf i killed a pack or two only using cleave and SD procs
like back to back SD the whole pack
lol i wish my execute is that high in details
so u just spam execute in aoe without sd proc?
if im focusing down something yes
hm
still better than mine 251 MS casts over 152 OP casts xD
ive seen critcake attack some dummy before starting key idk why tho
to get EP 2x?
or bladestorm buff
idk
its a big difference on the first pull
The difference between a naked bs and 3 stacks is very noticeable yes, especially for AA if you can get the bs off. Sometimes it can be a hard timer with 60s
makes bladestorm tick 3 more times which is a lot on the first pull of algethar
Keep in mind thise dummies keep you in fight and you cant stsrt a key infight.
Some people will kick u cause u annoy them
so um hit dummy get buff exit re enter and start key right after?
i think taht works no?
Dont hit the Dummy after timer Hits 5
idk how you do it without meld ngl
5 seconds is the time needed to drop combat
is there few more tricks like that?
can stack apex as well but the duration is so short, so it's key dependant
Most other buffs get reset or arent long enough
You can prepot for dungeons like pos where the first pull happens almost instanrly to get a few seconds of extra pot usage
more i get into warrior specific things in rotation etc more im overwhelmed xD
If everything was straight forward and easy to learn we would be called Hunter 
some inside joke i think
you spelt fury wrong
Cooldown - barbed shot - kill command - end of list
no joke i think fury is harder than arms atm
Why is everyone who says "no joke" always joking
i take it you disagree hahah
Skyfury is p much Mandatory. I refuse to play without sham
Rest doesnt matter too much
crit
Monk, Druid, Hunter, Shaman all do great things for you technically. But the biggest loss is sham
what does hunter do again
3% dmg on prio target
i take haste if slayer and crit if colossus
ahhh
tbf as long as you don't take mast you're prob fine
yeah neither spec wants mastery
mastery is fine
not that mastery is a bad stat, it's just worse than the vers buff
just dont take vers xD
it's flat % frozen
both specs would take vers > mastery
yup
lmaoo i forgot that's a thing
Thats a thing?
healing received op
I just always take crit cause its the first 1 and im too lazy to move 
real
it being flat % does mean mastery for certain specs is insanely OP. or atleast it used to in DF for spriest for example
But...Versa is flat% increase and Dr ontop
That makes no sense unless mastery was more %
yes, which is why the above conversation says so
But what was the reason thqt you picked it in DF over vers then ?
or if you meant my example of it being OP on spriest
spriest gained very little mastery per stat but it was very valuable. Your damage is increased by 4.0% for each of Vampiric Touch, Shadow Word: Pain, and Shadow Word: Madness on the target. During Voidform, all targets receive the maximum effect. so it took like 100 of the stat to gain 1%(i'm paraprashing but whatever)
so for specs that have a strong mastery but low gain per rating flat percentage is OP
Ah, variables
maybe devourer dh takes mastery. since it's just flat damage that gets increased by over double in meta
well thats from aa right after crawth before we abandon that shyt is there anything sucipous?
depends what build you runnin but exe looks a little low?
slayer
warrs still running arms slayer in high skyreaches and AA's? or colossus buffs caught up to slayer for those?
Imo you Can do Colo now. Havent done too much testing but I believe it’s viable
i trust you and i will run it
Besides I hate going Slayer in AA cuz sometimes it’ll look like you’re a literal augmentation haha
If you have a feeling bosses Will be an issue for your group go Slayer. If not Colo is fine
Dont say that. Augs CAN best us in first pull 
My mates I play with are pretty decent and they play UH & Dev. If I’m a bit unlucky with a ton of green shit and few proccs, the damage meter is literal nightmare fuel embarassing after 1st boss 😭😂

Kill lashers job done
Earlier on I used to be able to catch up by the end of the dungeon. Nowadays you can’t
Well
See it like this:
End of dungeon their dps is 30% hungry lashers.
They usually are somewhere at your top 6 dmg
No doubt your prio damage is higher, but I’ve actually bricked a key or two cuz our overall damage on 1st pull was too low, cuz entire group was kinda multitarget and target capped
I remember playing with a balance druid in his key, 18aa resi
He did 1.4m dps i did 450-ish
Now, he did 65k vile lasher dps i did 200
We fsiled that pull 3 times. Wanna take a guess who He blamed for it ?

Bold of you expect a boomie to starsurge for prio
^ 0 chance
He probably wasnt even playing the weaver build to get fee surges to use
Bro wdym press star surge there's like 40 mobs in this pull I'm pressing Starfall. Look my number big it says so right here
There is no sweet spot for slayer
Its a bunch of RNG
that decides what your meter looks like
Don't think to hard the real truth it doesn't matter what you press in-between cleave CDs. Just press op or exe
I died to a Vile Bite tank hit my last AA because the tank used a bop macro and then I got blamed for it
maybe ure right but im trying so hard to find issue with my dps
and im started to think is wow mechanic not rotation at this point
as slayer, how long is it ok to hold cds to sync them?
so hold as long as necessary?
Also should i use battle potion before or after bl?
For the most part ya
word
Obviously before so you have it during lust
Its not on gcd soo whenever really
is aoe opener: charge->rend->avatar/potion/racial+CS->BS->3x cleave.. ?
cause i was thinking when i click it before i get crit when i click after i get haste
or im mistaken
does not matter for stat when it comes to reck pot if that is what you're asking
you could have just gotten a weapon proc at the same time and then it becomes haste if stats are close
You guys ever get deleted first pull of SR? I got Blade Rush dot then like 2 seconds later got hit with Dread Wind and a Chakram at the same time
Cant say that happened to me. I usually dbts + dstance when i have dot + dread wind
what key level?
Only 20
do yall think crushing force talentwill start being picked with the MS buffs in m+?
it would be taken over stance mastery
this was u
I think I just got hit by the dot, dread wind, and chakram on the same tick
stance mast too big in high keys. in the low ass keys i do or just weeklies probably yea
roger
What did deathlog say
I mean i also sometimes died from ONLY the dot cause healer was doing idfk what
I don't remember the damage values but it was all within 0.8 seconds
I may have not been topped off tho
My log got deleted when I entered this dungeon
what is All Stars in warcraft logs?
Hard to tell. Dot shouldnt have Ticked too hard and dreadwind shouldnt do more than 40-50% with everything up, chakram even less
so is colossus better in AA and SR now? has anyone reached a verdict
If you're out of range of your target does FoB still work?
Its a tldr of class leaderboards
lower = better?
or higher
higher
Higher. All star points are like rio but measured in dps and time needed to kill
@thick kelp question, did the fury sim guys try adamantite mainhand and oil offhand
idk how to do the sim but i tried to figure it out for like 20 mins
I hear it procc so i always assumed it did
Sarri probably did
not sure
@smoky kayak Did you maybe try this on fury in sims yet
because the picture gio sent me it looked like it was 2 adamantite stones, 2 oils and 2 midnight stones
and the bis for surv hunter is actually adamantite stone main hand and oil offhand
so like
when did I send you pics
there's no situation in which TBC Stones are worth using over either Oils or MN Stones
i see
they're not as strong as they sound; wdam is outright inferior to AP under the new (BfA) damage formula
no, that changed a long, long time ago
Voidclaw glove good?
attack power hasn't been a stat in a decade, it's the sum of the damage formula
bis in raid
alright in m+, you would prefer crit haste gloves though
If i have the glove should i try to get the shadow dmg neck too?
AP = (Primary Stat + Weapon DPS * 6)
which is then multiplied by the ability's coefficient and all relevant damage multipliers, versatility, etc
i see
Beloren trinket bad in m+?
nope, not bis imo though, gaze and vorasius heart are better imo
its still very good though
If we chain pull a lot is it worse?
i dont know how the trinket works entirely.
if the buff resets when you leave combat then chain pulling is bad, if the buff stays the same when you leave combat then you probably wanna chain pull still
chain pulling is generally just really good for arms
so i wouldnt play around the trinket no matter how it works
I interpret it like it doesnt regen until you drop combat but i havent tested
yeah
if it resets only through combat then you are rewarded more by chaining
it does say it regenerates out of combat, not sure how fast
I use gaze + algethar puzzle atm but i think i wanna swap put puzzle
yeah you should
not having to think about trinkets is imo a pretty big increase for a spec that really likes to chain and is target capped
Throw that PB in the bin
so if you have 2,155 strength and are using a 298 2h with 101.4 DPS, your AP is
(2155 + 101.4 * 6) = 2763.4
the adamantite stone increases that to 102.5 DPS, so your AP becomes
(2155 + 102.5 * 6) = 2770
the MN stone instead gives you 15 AP, which is added onto the back of the formula
(2155 + 101.4 * 6) + 15 = 2778.4
now, the adamantite stone gives you a very small amount of crit which more or less makes up for AP difference, but its still only more or less on par with the MN stone
Are those better than the haste crit oil?
no
which means it's still wholly inferior to regular oils, which give 16 crit
ok that makes more sense
to be fair i thought it added 3 flat weapon dps
but i am wrong
it adds weapon damage, not DPS
yeah
i did think there was a world where you had the same scenario as surv with it on your mainhand and then oil on offhand, but if its just equal to the MN stones then it doesnt really matter
cause the MN stones are already worse then the oils
strictly speaking, it's not even equal, it's slightly worse than the MN stone in most cases
So i should try to get the crit proc trinket from voidspire
i think so
aight ty that answered a question that was bugging me all day
this is the one I did for Arms the other day
Yes ancient heart very good and m vora easy to beat
and the same for Fury
if you were strictly concerned with using TBC vs MN stones, yeah you may find a way to justify it, but there's no reason not to just use oils
idk what hunters are doing, maybe they have a really weird relationship with critical strike or something
Same I just wasn't sure if that was confirmation
idk how much it has to do with the stone, but they have a lot of auto attack damage increases with a lot of high ap scaling on some abilities
also attack speed increases
shouldn't matter; +15 AP is going to be higher than +4wdam, which happens before multiplying the coefficient
in which the higher number is obviously better
Higher number = better
the only difference is the small amount of crit from adamantine, but if they like the crit you'd think Oil would be better regardless
groundbreaking finds in warrior discord
pretty sure its only better since they are using daggers
faster attack speed or smth
cant imagine that being good in aoe however
hey guys, is the dwarf racial like one eye of the eagle enchant? and does it stack additively with eye so its 6% crit dmg? or
hmmm, well +4 is more on a smaller number is relatively more than +4 on a larger number, so that might push it over the edge
still feel like Oil would probably be better, but again idk shit about Survival (nor do I really care tbh)
that shouldn't matter
it applies to everything equally
and yeah, dam formulas use base attack speed, not modified
additive
so the dwarf racial just acts as another 2%
thx
is that mini boss is MC impossible on high keys (19) without a pally?
no
but you probably need some sort of consistent root breaker and afaik monk can do it pretty well
only ever done it with pallys and just ran in one without lol
yeah no monk either, not sure what the plan was
war/hunt/rogue/dh/rsham
i think if you are prepared to dps its fine on a +19
if not then they probably just die
tbh we werent, too far away ffrom ritual
6 items are bis in pit, 1 is close to bis and 1 sucks
so just spam in pit if u are a fresh character
but yeah the npx rings are also good for raid
seat is aight i think, can catalyst a lot of those pieces
Rings are good for m+ too
They sim better for me in both aoe and st even for Colossus
Yeah me freshy
Whats the point of taking Wrecking Throw without Javelenir in M+?
theres no point
people just dont think or bother to swap
it has some uses in keys like mc
without javelineer
Maybe swap it for Second Wind or something like that
Swapped it for Fast Footwork now but i guess second wind is better the higher the key
Either or is fine tbh
How much dmg does it do to shields on average?
alot
Not sure tbh but not really many uses for it outside of 2nd boss in mc
Thanks
Windrunner banshees also. Pit of Saron gargoyles. Small conveniences like that.
Oh- and the dragonhawks in Windrunner on lower keys where ppl are bad at stuns.
Maybe 130kish to shields?
yo lads, a quick one
in slayer ST, we DO spam Slam outside of exec phase, when everything is on cd no?
Accroding to my 4 second google search + wowhead search, yes
sweet, so then if i haven't changed nothing in my rotation
why the fk from 90 parse i keep getting 50-60
have we been nerfed overnight or tf
Maybe you're low rolling crits if you're down that much from what you usually do idk
Cant tell anything for sure without context
I thought MS prio moved down after the buffs to execute and overpower
Missing raidbuffs is a quick -10% dps
Guess not
in the mythic plus build
which is there
Or is it just in execute phase
under the ?
I think in m+ build its HS > MS > SD right?
this is pretty different from the wowhead rotation prio. what talent choices make hs higher than ms in the m+ build?
you drop 3 talents that make mortal strike do more damage
I think you'd still send MS before SD unless two stacks tho no?
fervor of battle
cleave autocasts hc and can sweep it resulting in 2 targets and empowered
He was referring to st
i was talking about the st rotation
a, pff
the fact that MS, even buffed with 3 martial prowess stacks, hits like a wet noodle
HS is more worth to press than ms in probably every scenario except cleaving
isnt it just martial prowess
no
ty lemme see
do i have to buy a token before my sub expires or can i log in without a sub and buy it with gold
You can buy it without game time
^
ty
Not sure exactly how you do it but I have done it
I think you get an option in the realm screen
i usually just bought a token before it expired
Do people actually pay for that
So, coming from playing Prot where its virtually never worth stance swapping I have a question for the DPS warriors. Realistically speaking, how often are you actually swapping to defensive stance?
if big dmg comes in
idk i get like 100k per run
you do more dmg if you live in the long run 
and runs are 25 mins
Do you just ask for tips or put a price?
we do team boosts
So basically anytime a predictable big damage event is happening?
Oh I see
the only reason im there is cause my tank and heal have like
6 titles
i have none and my io is dogshit
kinda - you basically use it as another personal
if you need one
well when i played i was top 3 warr dps but like we just cant play together anymore cause schedule so gg
Is it generally considered worth taking Stance Mastery for higher keys?
