totally

latent moss
#

i think we timed a 19 npx at like 270 ilvl and we had a full wipe and a couple deaths

#

crazy how people nowadays at 290 ilvl cant time it

sacred summit
#

ye u right i was only looking at arms talents not all of them lol

during execute phase for either raid or st build, do we only ms during cs (with 2 stacks of ep)

balmy kindle
#

MDI gaming

latent moss
#

and the worst comp of all time

balmy kindle
#

Without the skills

rose matrix
sacred summit
#

or do we send ms without cs with 2 stacks of ep in the raid build but not in m+ build

latent moss
#

we had fucking

#

brew mw spriest mage/aug arms

#

and that was pre most arms buffs

balmy kindle
#

Wew release arms was terrible no

latent moss
#

yes

#

i did less than brew on st as colo

minor sky
#

Ah yes the old double monk magic damage comp

latent moss
#

but i did that 19 as slayer

#

idk how are people struggling to live i was 270 in a 19

#

and never felt in danger

thorn stream
#

not pressing personals

#

like never

rose matrix
#

To be honest I hear a lot of people say NPX is hard on healers but I take like no damage there

thorn stream
#

is the most thing why people keep dying imo

#

(after standing in stupid shit)

latent moss
#

just zerk rage circle

rose matrix
#

Only time I die in there is when I swirly spawns below me in bs

sacred summit
#

guys during execute phase for either raid or m+ build, do we only ms during cs (with 2 stacks of ep)

or do we send ms without cs with 2 stacks of ep in the raid build but not in m+ build

latent moss
#

left side is the only dangerous part

rose matrix
#

That shit is basically invisible if it happens at the right time

latent moss
#

tbf we did right side

#

in like

#

3 pulls

#

had to make up time

#

shit was hell for me

barren ivy
#

What’s some spells we can spell reflect? Is there a list somewhere?

latent moss
#

18 frontals

#

at all times

#

spell reflecting entropic leech or w/e its called

#

is fucking huge

#

mob is stuck casting it and u dont get the heal absorb

rose matrix
#

Same with the dot

#

from the light demon guy

#

idk the name

latent moss
#

ye

#

a lot of good reflects this season

minor sky
#

If I have a macro that includes /cast slam, will it still cast heroic strike when procced?

latent moss
#

no

minor sky
#

or do I need to include /cast heroic strike

#

ok

latent moss
#

why would u do that

#

u have to bind slam anyway

#

just track it on cdm

minor sky
#

Im binding battle stance to all my dps abilities so I never forget to swap back after using defensive for a personal

#

theres virtually no risk because of the 3 sec window

tall citrus
#

you should just have a bind for stances sometimes you wanna sit def stance during rot etc

barren ivy
#

^

latent moss
#

idk i just got defensive stance reminder

#

that yells at me

#

im in d stance

minor sky
barren ivy
#

unnecessary bindings can cost you globals if things are bound to everything.

balmy kindle
#

It's best to make a Macro toggle

barren ivy
#

Then 3 seconds becomes a long damn time lmao

latent moss
#

personally i never liked macros apart from focus kick and mouseover stuff

minor sky
rose matrix
#

Only thing I macro is impending victory into charge

balmy kindle
#

The internal GCD can kill you though if you accidentally do it in a bad moment

latent moss
#

wdym

minor sky
latent moss
#

u cant go into bstance if ure already in bstance

#

u can only swap

balmy kindle
#

Oh yeah it doesn't self proc the igcd

#

Mb

#

I personally just use a toggle

minor sky
balmy kindle
#

Yes side mouse button for me

minor sky
#

we bind side mouse to interrupt in this house

latent moss
#

i use X

#

for stance switch

rose matrix
#

G for me

smoky garden
#

I use Shift + back scroll for my stance macro

I have the same keybind on mop for it

pearl shore
#

did anything change talent or rotation wise for colossus after the buff

thick kelp
#

damn

spring ravine
#

Is it worth it to spend money?

#

and which sim should I go with?

thick kelp
#

flip a coin

sacred zodiac
#

not the 10 target patchwerk

thick kelp
#

my favourite

prisma igloo
#

How big of an ST buff was the colossus changes yesterday?

dim basalt
spring ravine
sacred zodiac
#

this is something we cannot tell you

#

gotta decide for yourself if x gold is worth 0.3% dps

feral breach
#

I am scared

spring ravine
#

feels like I wasted my bonus rolls for 2h. Should've simmed before. thanks again for answer mate

wind flicker
#

Thats by far the biggest dps you can gain

wintry scroll
#

do we still run this on colossus with new patch ?

thick kelp
#

yeah

fresh spire
#

I wonder if it's worth dropping me/powerful for mp now

wintry scroll
#

sim it for me

wind flicker
fresh spire
#

Me is insane sim bait

#

Powerful is very situational. If you got 2+ target bosses it crankssss

wind flicker
#

I mean i thought so too, but he had a good argument

#

Because first of all it lines up well, and secondly usually thats when ur group is out of juice and you can finish it off

fresh spire
#

You barely get many cleaves in on targets under 35% especially since you likely hold Cs for next trash so no cc cleaving either

#

If they chanced that slam tact reset to work with cleave if fob is taken life would be badass

#

Overpowering finish is kinda whatever since you op much less. If you lack a shaman could easily run the slam cost reduction to help with rage on st

thick kelp
#

if its a pack of 4 at 20% surely sending CS is worht it for overall timer

#

I think the me/powerful drop might be potent in AA/skyreach (again)

#

But skyreach has dangerous mobs

fresh spire
#

Purely depends on upcoming pull. Avatars line up. Etc

thick kelp
#

and depending on group you gain good value out of Powerful

#

on skyreach last boss

thick kelp
#

too many conditions in M+, god bless we dont do dslice

fresh spire
#

D slice more like don't slice

wind flicker
#

In higher keys mass execute definitely lines up

#

And ur always sending a second warbreaker into it

#

So i think you do actually get many cleaves on ME

#

But for lower level keys i’d say u might be better off skipping the talent ye

rose matrix
#

I pump at the last 35% on packs all the time

#

Very common to use CS at the point once you are doing keys where mobs live long enough

#

I could see dropping it if you run Col in AA

wind flicker
#

I dont think AA is a very Col friendly dungeon

#

It requires way too much coordination to do good dmg there on bosses as collos

#

And loads of people get hooked on overall in AA while most of the damage is useless pad.

sacred zodiac
wind flicker
#

If you really want to see who’s good or not in AA filter out the useless small lasher dmg and look at the dmg done to vile lashers, bosses, and the big reaver guys

#

Those are the things that screw your timer in AA

radiant flume
#

yo, new to arms warrior. is dungeon slice good or bad for this spec?

sacred zodiac
#

dslice isnt maintained

hot barn
#

Col st better now or?

wintry scroll
#

i been doing 87K ST

#

i guess that's better

#

but with funnel colo is bis

toxic night
#

did anyone actually sim col st with funnel?

thick kelp
#

yes

#

what do you need to know

toxic night
#

would like to know how funnel stacks up on the priority target against plain st

thorn stream
#

📈

#

something like this

thick kelp
#

which is 147k if you are lazy to open

hot barn
#

Any dngs u dont play col?

thick kelp
#

my opinion, no

toxic night
#

where do you get 147k from i only see 137k

mortal crag
#

we removed the chinese

mortal crag
#

from the equation

toxic night
#

wonder if thats a simc issue then

thick kelp
#

whats a simc issue

hasty pumice
toxic night
#

because the main target only takes 137k

thick kelp
#

just trust the

#

dps to main target

toxic night
#

well then again, 147k would still not be an accurate number since trash wont live past 30 seconds

open ingot
#

is the garfrost weapon that good i cant get it to outsim a crafted weap?

ionic mica
#

its a sim its not going to be accurate to your actual keys boss fight

#

unless you care to set all that up in the sim, and even then itll only apply to the scenario you set up

open ingot
#

yeah i get that im still struggling to get it to outsim even with arcano weave craft

Me, as a german, approve of this message okayge

open ingot

compared to 115k + simming arms war st

Yeah i use top gear for that

thorn stream

#

yeh

#

not sure if the hunt is simming off

dim basalt
#

Did you also use another embellishment then?

open ingot
#

yeh i crafted crit haste gloves

#

also tried with cape

open ingot
#

but my cape is pretty decent

#

i thought it was because you have vantus, but even vantus'd your almost 10% ahead of me

nvm its duration

had mine on 10m

thick kelp
#

#

10min m+ bosses

simple wren
#

went back to my warrior to try it out arms and first impression is that it doesnt seem very pruned compared, feels like its even one more step complicated in midnight compared to tww with heroic strike?

#

arms feels like super complicated compared to UHDK 😄

open ingot
#

true

novel raven
#

think i was checking 10m 8t last

open ingot
#

arms actually probs one of the harder specs in the game atm

simple wren
#

yeah must be

toxic night
#

its barely any harder than pressing 1 2 3 tbh clueless

feral breach
#

The moment i have to press 4

wind flicker
open ingot
#

kinda crazy that arms especially colossus just dodged pruning

#

tho all the warrior specs dont feel like they changed that much

toxic night
#

i liked thane fury in tww, dont really like the change to recklessness they made

open ingot
#

what where you just spam rampage?

wind flicker
#

Honestly, season 3 dragonflight fury was quite good in terms of minmaxing rotationally for fury

#

Probably one of the better seasons

open ingot
#

fury is pretty degen just rampage>clap>rampage>clap

toxic night
#

yea

open ingot
#

dam i didnt play it then

#

i just picked up war in tww

wind flicker
#

I forgot the talent we used back then, they removed it, but it forced us into a specific rotation were fuckups were punished, but good gameplay rewarded

#

And some cool rage pooling tricks etc

paper gulch
#

Deadly calm

wind flicker
#

Our aoe was mid, but st was quite good

#

Annihilator

#

That was the talent

#

Had to look through my old guide to find the name lmao

open ingot
#

fury is weird atm

#

it just seems mid at everything

feral breach
#

And mid is not bad

wind flicker
#

Fury st is not mid at all imo

#

Slayer that is

feral breach
#

And this

open ingot
#

isnt frost and udk and ele doing 130k st

proven veldt
#

there are a lot of DPS specs

#

you can be worst than the best specs and still not mid

wind flicker
#

Loads of classes are viable yep

feral breach
#

Not everyone can be best

#

Thats why mid is good

wind flicker
#

It doesnt matter anyways unless ur playing the highest keys

#

And even then it will be within 1 keylevel

#

With some dungeons favoring other comps than other dungeons

toxic night
#

it doesnt matter that it doesnt matter, you still might not get invited if youre an off meta specc

wind flicker
#

Must say that i dont think warrior will run into many issues this season with that

feral breach
#

Hard to get highkey pugs for fury afaik

#

But that is not issue of the spec itself

open ingot
#

yeh for sure arms kinda overshadows it

feral breach
#

More of the spec perception

wind flicker
open ingot
#

once you start getting 20-21

feral breach
#

Heard some ppl not getting invites on 18-19+
Or get kicked if they find out they are not srms

#

I dont have the problems myself, i do not pug rn

wind flicker
open ingot
#

yeah i cant comment myself personally

#

i havent been pushing high keys this season on war

wind flicker
#

And obviously its also about being realistic that ur not getting into an evokers key for example

open ingot
#

mostly on the dh

#

yeh for sure

#

but i mean you can have a aug in a semi phys comp and it will still be ok

wind flicker
#

Not really

open ingot
#

like aug > war > rogue >shaman > brew is probs fine

wind flicker
#

Imo aug is probably one of the worst classes to have with a warrior

#

I’d take any class over an aug

feral breach
#

We run bear, mw, fury, uh, aug okayge

open ingot
#

isnt their crit buff not that bad for arms?

#

but yeh fair

#

its definitely not meta

#

but can work

wind flicker
#

I mean everything can work

open ingot
#

got a mate who augs for a phys comp

#

they doing 21s

novel raven
#

this goal post constantly feels like its just moving slightly behind me, but idk. 21s are just play well now

wind flicker
#

I think the most issues people run into at 21 is mostly due to people needing to do more things than just their rotation

novel raven
#

timed 21 SR with dbl warrior frost dk

wind flicker
#

Doesnt make it impossible

open ingot
#

yeh for sure

wind flicker
#

But yeah aug just not great with us

open ingot
#

could be a feral orr something else

wind flicker
#

You can run some keys with and without and see the difference yourself

open ingot
#

tbh havent seen many ferals this season on enhancement shamans

feral breach
#

I swapped to feral
Saw the prio list on wowhead
I swapped to boomkin

wind flicker
#

From the ferals i know they’ve told me the playstyle is not very fun

open ingot
#

oof a actual shopping list prio

feral breach
#

That list is 4 times the size

open ingot
#

i tried feral last season wasnt a fan

#

just felt like a lot of plate spinning

feral breach

alright boys stupid questions time: 1) are we only sending execute with 40 rage or sudden death? 2) lets say we have 20 rage, execute phase, 2 stacks of executioners precision, smash debuff is up, we waiting for auto attack to get more rage for MS?

balmy kindle

i think u use OP or use MS, alternatively, bladestorm

Do we Change anything in colo Build with new Patch ?

tropic crest

#

Colo Prio on aoe is cleave > ms > op right ?

tropic crest
#

You basically do Cleave MS OP - Cleave MS OP - Cleave MS OP . If MS / OP aren't ready you go Execute SD > Slam

I did yeah lol. Did as much as I did when I ran Colo on the 20 MC on that first pull

#

I procced out my mind

rough pewter
#

what is high m+ score nowdays

#

3500?

#

or even more

minor gust
#

4k

rough pewter
#

and then 3500 is what? casual level or mid

viscid mica
#

any vods? would like to see slarms only player on high m+

minor gust
#

New casual is like 3400 for the mount so what 3500 would be slightly above that

rough pewter
gilded turret
#

can someone shed some light about the bonus roll system for me:
This week I bonus rolled Myth Chim for the first time and got the Chest token.
I also got the boots from the boss drop.

Does that mean next week only Gaze is left in the pool, or are both Gaze and boots still in the pool? (All rolls in prot spec)

mortal crag
#

boots are still in pool

#

in order to be removed from pool it has to be from the bonus loot

gilded turret
#

Cool, thank you

#

Is it true that vault can remove things from the bonus loot pool?

minor gust
#

No

what do you use to sim AOE as arms? I want to see if Nexus point ring set outperforms the 2 Rings from Pit and nexuspoint with crit and haste

celest iris
#

Are people playing slayer in AA and Skyreach after the Colo changes?

minor gust
#

Considering I play slayer in every key yeah

balmy kindle
#

i think slayer still makes the key faster in certain comps so i am sticking with it

wintry scroll
#

guys what's the build for slayer

#

on the last boss of Seat m+

#

for the tp strat

#

is it raid ST ?

balmy kindle

yeah if u tp out swap to raid ST

woven cloak
#

I haven't played my warrior as DPS in a while, is Arms still ass in high target counts or do they scale a lot better in big AoE for M+ now?

leaden garnet
#

Eeehhhh Arms is target capped to either 5 or 8, but Colo's bleed damage is uncapped

#

You'll do more damage to 10 targets than you will to 5, but beyond 10 it starts to become meaningless

woven cloak
#

So they'll still perform well in groups doing big bear/mw pulls? I assume not as well as an unholy DK or Devourer DH, but still god?

leaden garnet
#

Arms is ostensibly fifth best DPS currently

#

You'll do fine

#

Plenty of Arms representation in 20+ keys

woven cloak
#

Aug, Unholy, Devourer, Rogue ahead I assume?

#

True, I guess even though they've been represented in the past, it's a lot more significant now since they aren't so comp dependent it seems

leaden garnet
#

From memory it's UH/Demo/Devo/Ret, actually

woven cloak
#

Awesome, thanks for the quick answer

#

Actually, one more question, do Arms have decent funnel?

leaden garnet
#

Decent

#

Possibly the best funnel in the entire game

woven cloak
#

Sweet, thanks again!

rancid robin
#

Are the sim update with the new patch ?

restive glacier
#

Just started playing arms for the first time in Midnight (I've played all 3 specs in all content for all of wow). But a question about rotation. At the start of the fight, do I use demolish right away (after ravager/avatar/CS) or always wait for 10 stacks first?

rancid robin
#

u can also send sweeping strike before any pack, u just need to do it like 10/15 sec before sending collosus otherwise you will not be able to keep good uptime of ur sweepingstrike

restive glacier
#

Ok, that strat is for keys, what about a raid boss?

rancid robin
#

Oh raid, i'm not that good in raid but just send everything and press execute perma xd (always play slayer)

restive glacier
#

I'm trying Colossus Arms for mythic Vanguard

soft sigil
# woven cloak So they'll still perform well in groups doing big bear/mw pulls? I assume not as...

Depends on your comp, arms is not good at bear pulls, so if you are playing with unholy/dev/demo then they will blast you with uncapped aoe. If you are playing with melee or phys comp it's different, the packs will take longer so there's more damage to go around. The way arms catches up to uncapped aoe is its sustained/chained aoe, it's not good at mass aoe once every 90s but it will nuke the 1-2 pulls in between while other classes have no cds available (except demo which is also on a 1m cadence)

ionic mica
#

not done it in a while but that was the play before and thats what the couple of logs i just looked at did

woven cloak
soft sigil
#

Yeah no shaman is a hard sell, you do get monk buff which makes up some of the difference, I would stick to slayer or play fury

woven cloak
#

Shaman is that impactful eh?

#

I've never been a huge fan of Fury personally compared to Arms

soft sigil
#

Yes, its huge for damage but even more for how the spec feels and plays

foggy hamlet
#

can i play Slayer arms in every m+ dungeon? or am i greifing?

soft sigil
#

Slayer can get by without skyfury because it gets more free globals from sudden death and bladestorm lets you generate some rage. Colossus casts a lot more slams and demolish resets the swing timer so it suffers a lot from the poor baseline rage gen

minor gust
woven cloak
#

Is it worth sticking with Arms slayer or is Fury just better at that point?

minor gust
woven cloak
#

😂

#

How is Fury in high target counts?

minor gust
#

Same it's always been bad - meh

#

You are fine to play arms without a shaman if that's what you prefer

#

Just might not be as fun when you inevitably hit rage starve moments

woven cloak
#

I would be better going Slayer though? I'm not too pressed on the hero talent selection tbh, and I honestly wasn't the biggest fan of colossus when playing Prot, the forced immobility was always a bit rough, but I assumed it would feel better as arms

Whats the latest consensus on the buffs, is it full send coloss in all dungs nowRampage

Both are viable.

#

Getting hyped to try coloss again

reef prairie
#

I dont think anything changed with the buffs tbh

#

AA is prob still a slayer key

#

And i wouldn't colossus in skyreach unless you're playing funnel on all the bosses

minor gust
#

Pretty much nothing changed. Still the best outcome of truly play what you prefer or just the whole slayer in AA SR and Colo rest

#

Up to the player

for m+ builds, is the 2 target rotation the same as aoe or nah?

#

mainly just wondering how high to prio cleave on 2 target

late lantern
#

Is Skyreach still a slayer key or is it now also Colo after buffs?

dim basalt
hybrid scroll
hybrid scroll
#

its so hard to get used not prioing MS as slayer as someone who was only playing collossus really lol

#

i feel like i cant do any aoe dmg as slayer

dim basalt
hybrid scroll
#

idk man just got beat by gdruid 1st pull of SR 21 lol

#

granted i was playing with UH Devourer so they kinda just kill all the pad but its still rough

minor gust
#

If you want a good first pull you have to pre stack BS before the key

hybrid scroll
#

yeah i did prestack lol

minor gust
#

Just how it is. If you don't it's fine you just catch up

minor gust
#

That moment when you cleave 5 times and don't get a single reap proc

dim basalt
minor gust
hybrid scroll
#

this was lust window

minor gust
#

You either proc out your mind and do giga dmg and get two BS in one CS window

hybrid scroll
#

not too familiar with slayer breakdowns yet so not sure if this is bad proc rng or what

minor gust
#

Or you get nothing

minor gust
hybrid scroll
#

im def pressing MS too much in aoe i think

minor gust
#

Then if you had good RNG reap would probably be higher on that pull

minor gust
hybrid scroll
#

old habits die hard

#

used to colo

minor gust
#

Just be slamming ops and executes in-between cleave cds

hybrid scroll
#

pressing OP before MS feels wrong lol

ionic mica
#

if i get mad SD procs on lura do i BS in CS between adds? feels sad to sit on it

ionic mica
#

like we dont do a lot to adds anyway

dim basalt
#

BS is like 50k per tick and reap crits up to 180k

ionic mica
#

feels odd to hold

minor gust
#

Other ppl prob blow up crystals so prob just be doing boss dmg is you get BS back way before

#

P1 is resident sleeper for arms anyways

ionic mica
#

ill give it a go, its like 50/50 get it for adds or for 2nd cs

#

ya

minor gust
#

You are afk waiting for p3

ionic mica
#

p3 waiting room

#

guess ill pot first cds as well then

#

in case BS isnt back for the 1min adds

dim basalt
#

I wish repping wasnt so expensive

#

One Lura night is like 8k+

wind hatch
boreal orbit
#

Just curious, arcane mastery sims highest for me but I see no one uses it. Is there a reason?

#

Seems like logs have high dmg on arcane mastery too

boreal orbit
#

Running new ones now will link

dim basalt
umbral gyro
#

hey how to use
Umbral Plume??

#

use it before pull or what?

zenith warren
#

you guys play fatality on beloren?

boreal orbit
#

Ya know, if I only select arcane mastery for weapon enchants that explains a lot.

#

Silly warrior, sims are for int classes.

#

But Berserker Rage seems to sim highest now?

#

Am I sim wrong or should I ignore SIM and do Rendori

minor gust
wind hatch
#

it's what most people use

boreal orbit
#

When I look on Archon says more using the other enchant

#

But I will switch! Thank you

minor gust
boreal orbit
#

Also my guild says I should use Puzzle Box but I think they are crazy.

#

Gaze/guildan sims always win

minor gust
#

Sounds like they don't like you and want you to suffer

#

And use puzzlebox

dim basalt
#

Unless you need the burst for Belo or whatever they can suck dn

boreal orbit
#

That makes sense.

rare kite
#

belo would feel so bad for puzzle. my guildies have to use it 8 sec before pull

#

i'm thinking of swapping to improved sweeping strikes on colossus

#

any thoughts?

cedar cairn
#

Might end up pumping colo, not feeling the rng with slayer

stable fiber
#

I think you will get higher overalls with it, just probably a little worse for prio damage

spark mango
#

i feel like, whats the point of momentum when i end up doing 5 globals without ss anyway

stable fiber
#

If there is like a 2 target encounter boss

#

You really want powerful momentum instead

#

I think in other dungeons though imp sweep probably is better

#

Like skyreach or algethar

nova marsh
#

Id rather just drop the node for something else

stable fiber
#

Powerful can also kill funnel

#

Nah no other node even comes close

spark mango
nova marsh
#

Idk man

#

Imp ss just seems weak to me

stable fiber
#

Imp sweep is real good as colossus

nova marsh
#

Genuinely

#

Whats the difference

#

Our ss uptime is already high af

stiff sinew
#

as a beginner warrior arms, I choose play slayer in m+, doing 12~14 with my friends. Am I making the group worst by not playing colossus? I'm playing only wiht slayer no matter the dungeon. I feel like with colossus I have to think on another button that I do not need in slayer

solemn turret
#

Can i have a quick check

#

on logs, i seems to OP way tio much but i feeel like i got nothing to press or slam

stable mountain
solemn turret
#

should i wait for MS instead ?

dim basalt
late lantern
#

wtf is veteran strikes?

stable fiber
#

You feel it as colossus idk

late lantern
#

I teleported out of seat to swap talents but verteran strikes was on cd so i couldnt switch

ionic mica
#

fury backup moment

#

either that or dont play veterans vitality in seat but the alternative doesnt do anything sadly

spark mango
candid garden
#

Am i screwing myself by playing slayer every key?

stable fiber
#

slayer vs colossus you can play either below 20s

#

then colossus starts to break away at around the 20 range because tankiness is super important

#

and the st loss isnt as big anymore as colossus

#

i still do like 85k st as colossus

atomic mist
#

Anyone else struggle to get in mythic chim runs, I’ve got ce I’m 280 ilvl just never get taken

#

Wanna get myth gaze so bad ahaha

i killed it today first time

#

290 ilvl tho

atomic mist
#

Gz

stable fiber
#

im not really sure what to run either

#

the boss design is just ass

#

one of the worst bosses ever made

thick kelp
#

I dealy BS

#

for after crystals on lura

#

if I have SD

stable fiber
#

no

#

bladestorm is all your crystal damage

#

sudden death is just a cherry on top

#

i try to sweep executes off crystals onto the boss

thick kelp
#

Never have time to get anything else out after....

#

Triple ddh

stable fiber
#

ur dhs are playing wrong talents if they are killing every set btw

#

they should only blow up 2nd set of crystals now

#

maybe 3rd

candid garden
#

whats the second easiest mythic raid boss after chim?

#

i wanna get an option in the vault

#

puggable

stable fiber
#

well im ngl

thick kelp
stable fiber
#

the first 2 of voidspire are miles easier then chim

#

so

candid garden
#

oh

#

vorasius easy too?

stable fiber
#

yeah

candid garden
#

ok i should try to do those then

#

beloren hard?

stable fiber
#

yes

#

2nd hardest boss right now

#

not puggable

thick kelp
stable fiber
#

yup

thick kelp
#

Dogshit P1 for me

#

so unfun

#

im asleep

stable fiber
#

a mid pull is ending p1 at like 150k dps

#

for me

#

my best has been like 190k i think

thick kelp
#

Yeah im gonna be checking that after we make it to intermission more than 1 per 50 pulls

stable fiber
#

really just depends on your crit rng on the first crystal set

#

you can do 100k or 190k burst for no reason

#

then the next 2 sets are much more consistent, sd procs do help

dim basalt
#

I had 300k on first add burst few pulls ago

#

double sd proc with insane crits

#

lmao

stable fiber
#

if you reck pot on first set you can usually do like 200-220k

#

but i think thats bad now

#

reck pot 3rd set and reck pot p4

thick kelp
#

I was potting your timer at 1:13

#

2nd crystals

hasty pumice
#

guys

stable fiber
#

if playing right

hasty pumice
#

rate my UI pls I'm new

#

is this good?

stable fiber
thick kelp
stable fiber
#

pot 2nd set and p3 lust execute

#

rekill strat is pot crystals then p4

thick kelp
stable fiber
#

i think you can do 3rd set

#

lura is such a fun boss man

#

idk

#

its so goated

thick kelp
#

Sure if u arent p1 simulator

stable fiber
#

i fw p1

#

maybe not prog

#

rekill p1 is a fun phase

dim basalt
#

3rd are like 1st for us

stable fiber
#

yeah our 2nd crystal set was the worst

#

but ddhs changed to the better talent

#

so they blow the 2nd set up

dim basalt
#

We have 2 ddh, one is top dps and the other is below me

#

kekw

reef prairie
#

I was potting 2nd set and potting p3 lust and it felt pretty good

stable fiber
#

crazy that spec just plays the same talent build on literally everything

#

m+ and raid

#

you dont change a single talent

stable fiber
#

meanwhile chim arms has like 4 different talent pages you can play

#

and they are all viable under certain circumstances

#

but if you are in a pug group you dont know the circumstances

#

pure st, 2x sweep talents, slayer m+ build, or colossus m+ build

#

cringe

thick kelp
candid garden

they should make cleave baseline or something

go like my tweets guys

#

I only got 2 good hits rn

#

Only posting certified bangers

reef prairie
#

If we all start tweeting enough we can give the devs even more advice to ignore

stable fiber
#

so much varience in some of the lura phases on this spec lmao

dim basalt
#

Love this guy

#

He must have liked his own tweet

stable fiber
#

he should go play crown as a melee

#

true melee

#

there is a reason the only true melee spec they played on crown was ret

dim basalt
#

I wouldnt mind melee downtime if downtime didnt punish us twice as much

stable fiber
#

and ret is barely a true melee

#

but if you cant auto attack you are a worthless chud

#

so

rare kite
#

got even worse this tier. we not only have uptime for cdr but also uptime for buff extension(through tier set)

dim basalt
#

or cd reduction if outside of cds

stable fiber
#

or just flat cdr

dim basalt
#

At least let us swim in rage again so its not as bad

stable fiber
#

AM is a bad talent

rare kite
reef prairie
#

12.1 will be our tier

the only melee that is actually playable on crown is unholy

hate ts game

#

tbf i think entire voidspire is just garbage. horrible raid

stable fiber
#

it has some like 3 good bosses

#

vorasius, fallen king and dragons

#

the rest suck

reef prairie
#

Crown is a good boss if you arent warrior i think

stable fiber
#

yup

#

well

reef prairie
#

I liked council too honestly

stable fiber
#

nah

#

paladins is garbage

#

awful boss

#

make a 3t encounter that you only get 3t on for 25% of the time

rare kite
stable fiber
#

bad

ionic mica
#

it might be less damage but a haste reck pot into BS does feel juicy

stable fiber
#

does that even speed it up

ionic mica
#

mmm might be fury

#

idk why that last one was so quick

stable fiber
#

idk how a hasted arms bladestorm works

#

it feels the same always lmao

reef prairie
#

Its faster i think?

ionic mica
#

furys speeds up but idk what arms does

#

it felt super quick

stable fiber
#

it has to speed the arms one up

#

cant just do noting

dim basalt
#

BS is way fatser yeah

ionic mica
#

felt like BL BS

dim basalt
#

Guidon reduces BS channel by like 0.6

#

or .7

reef prairie
#

0.6 or 7

dim basalt
stable fiber
#

ok ye

#

haste reck pot reduces it by like 1 second

#

still kinda ahh tho

only haste proc is weapon

#

raid

#

nah double arcano

stable fiber
#

hmm

#

what are unbuffed stats

#

crit hatse only 2 i care about

late lantern
#

we take haste or crit as slayer in AA?

ionic mica
#

im mid lura prog but 1373 crit 1024 haste with 165 crit from flask and mainstat food

#

can find log of it after raid in 40mins cos im curious xD

#

should be this pull

#

idont actually know if it did proc haste but i couldnt think of what else it would be unless i got a load of SD procs but i didnt have any

stable fiber
#

SD procs dont speed up the channel of the bladestorm

#

they just make it hit more during the channel

rare kite
stable fiber
#

it wouldnt force it to proc haste

#

doesnt give enough

rare kite
#

no i mean the weapon enchant making bladestorm feel faster

stable fiber
#

it would be like .1 second faster at most

#

bladestorms haste scaling is ass

ionic mica
#

yeah tbh i might be misleading you guys and it was the same

#

lura p1 all blends together

stable fiber
#

ill check this pull

#

and see what happened

rare kite
#

yea coz i'm looking at your buffs on the log and can't really find anything that would make reck proc haste

ionic mica
ionic mica
#

nothing else to do in p1 but think about this stuff

stable fiber
#

this was a crit reck pot

#

you can tell by ur crit% that it was

#

70% crit chance on bladestorm

#

your crit should be around 69%-72% when you snapshot a crit reck pot so that checks out

candid pecan
#

no chance

stable fiber
#

pull 21 was a crit proc as well, your bladestorm still lasted like 4.5-5 seconds

stable fiber
#

but those other 3 do a ton

#

so its wraps

ionic mica
stable fiber
#

you should sim some gems i think lowkey

ionic mica
#

for more haste?

stable fiber
#

your haste seems a lil low and crit a lil high

#

yeah

#

just a minor optimization

ionic mica
#

yeah i usually do and its fairly close

#

or alleria neck

stable fiber
#

interesting

ionic mica
#

crit more fun to look at essentially so i dont swap it if its close

#

the fewer non crit MS i see the better

stable fiber
#

you have like 120 more crit then me and my sim wants more haste

ionic mica
#

ill do another gem sim after raid and see what it says

stable fiber
#

gear is identical with the exception of the wedding ring

#

shadowlands gathering on the gloves

#

alpha as fuck

ionic mica
#

gems/rings/flask sim

#

id be scared to haste flask and reck pot tho i cba to aura cancel weapon enchant

2.5

so you can wrecking throw prepull then charge

umbral gyro
#

left shard
#

we play colo in all keys now?

#

or slayer still viable?

soft sigil
# daring grove Do we have a hard time to get invites with puggs

Depends a lot on your character's qualifications and your region, NA is pretty meta heavy (can't speak to EU) so in high keys (20+) you won't get invited in pugs unless you are signing up to melee/phys comp. For vaulters/non push keys your IO and ilevel matter more than class/spec

i rather keep ravager and add unhinged to it

big variance is normal on beloren egg phase?

i had one pull with over 10mln dmg but usually below 8mln

just first egg phase, didnt get to 2nd one xd

i mean arms is very rng so yeah

zenith warren

btw do augs still screw logs or is it mostly accurate?

is augvoker good? no
does it "go good with arms"? hell yeah

bc ik we need skyfury

but most players are ele

pray an enhance turns up, or roll the dice on an ele

i've tried to make a team with ppl i've met in game but maybe i'm just awkward but it always feels awwakrd

hybrid needle
#

You can oush past 15 with anything

undone aurora
#

nah I mean like, my friends don't care to push past 15

#

if I had it my way we'd be doing 20+

#

but i'm the only one that is invested enough to do 20s

But... but... isnt anything else just farming keys out of boredom

because you have Heroic might stacks and 3 stacked bladestorm

way better then w/o

minor gust

yeah

@minor gust (in AoE/Slayer) do you try to get 3 stacks of the cleave buff in between cleave casts or just send cleave on cd regardless of stacks

minor gust
#

send cleave on cd regardless

does st on col seems any less bad then before? lol

3.5% less bad

Hello, can any1 point me in the direction of col rotation for first pulls, like should i stack col first and then send it or send it b4 or after cleave spam that sort of things. Thanks!

stack then send

Should never send it without 10 stacks
