lots of cheese

craggy socket
#

My whole point was warrior works in a ton of comps and mage doesn’t at the moment

sharp meteor
#

it is, even without cheese

#

no mages legit just arne't good enough to play without a rogue

near delta
#

Did they do another secret armor nerf

sharp meteor
#

like the vast majority just don't function

near delta
#

Feels like stuff is hitting hard af

craggy socket
#

Lmao you’re actually trolling

sharp meteor
#

i queue with a mage on my lock and they just are

#

the actual worst

craggy socket
#

Fury brain got you all fucked yo

near delta
#

I played WMP literally once like s3

#

And the mage was the most toxic player I've ever seen

sharp meteor
craggy socket
#

Nah just facts you sound stupid

near delta
#

Dude apparently was 3k xp or whatever. And was hella critical even tho we won like 9 games straight

sharp meteor
#

throw me down a flight of stairs if i ever become a 2k rmp player that says the comp is bad

near delta
#

Ah s2 not s3

sharp meteor
#

yeah s2 super jacked

elder wigeon
#

most mages don't even know how to play without a rogue doing everything for them too

#

part of the problem

sharp meteor
#

actually tho

#

mages taking years to realize

#

they didn't need shimmer

graceful quarry
#

not wrong

#

if you only ever play one comp

#

youre not gonna know

#

what to do in other comps

#

like someone who plays ret suddenly having to play something thats not ret/warr

elder wigeon
#

mage design is just so bad lol

spice hornet

sharp meteor
#

shut

craggy socket
#

Nah

sharp meteor
graceful quarry

m+ lul

spice hornet
#

aaaaaa

sharp meteor
#

Physical stuff just tearing through everybody.

#

Armor is napkins.

elder wigeon
#

yeah I have like 27% with two main pieces of 311 eternal gear lol

graceful quarry
#

how long is the season out now

#

2 weeks?

sharp meteor
#

At one point my honor gear alt had more armor than my bis main

#

This is second week ya

elder wigeon
#

8 days

#

or so

sharp meteor
#

we've gotten one box

elder wigeon
#

9 days*

graceful quarry
#

might need some weeks for stuff to settle in i guess

#

with big boi gear might be different

near delta
graceful quarry

don't forget the bruin special of telling people to commit trafficplay

mage in DF

spice hornet
#

Miss thst guy

elder wigeon
#

they really should just fix rogue's stuns vs damage and give mage deep back

wheat jay
#

That's pve effect

#

In pvp ms is nerfed by 50%

steep inlet
#

It’s too much even

#

Mage are S++ tier

#

Since 2005

#

Why put a fucking MS

fickle forge
#

Yeah well

#

There's a reason wizards don't have MS

sage raptor
#

That was me. And I stand by it.

#

And I wasn't necessarily defending outlaw

#

Just defending people who played outlaw even when it was bad.

#

Ie me.

#

Also outlaw was this strong in season 2 but had no representation so it flew under the radar.

wheat jay
#

No class/spec deserves to be overtuned

#

Nerf shit down

sage raptor
#

Except warriors.

wheat jay
#

No matter what it is

#

Warriors too

sage raptor
#

Arms*

wheat jay
#

All

#

If something is overtuned

#

It should get nerfed

sage raptor
#

That wasn't the consensus in S1 and S2

wheat jay
#

It was for me

#

I care not about the ramblings of the dumb

#

And those crying that they deserve something

#

They deserve nerf hammer at best

sage raptor
#

Nah

wheat jay
#

Yah

sage raptor
#

If that were to happen, arms would never be good again.

elder wigeon
#

lets be honest here, nobody would even be playing arms if turbo and ret warrior weren't so good

#

even the copers like laros

sage raptor
#

If someone plays a shitty spec for years and then it magically gets good one season, they don't "deserve" to get shit on like fotm rerollers do. Which is what I mean when I say deserve.

#

No one really "deserves" anything.

elder wigeon
#

ideally tuning and design isn't so bad that we're going around saying this shit

sage raptor
#

Ideally you're right

sage raptor
#

But sadly tis not the case at times.

elder wigeon
#

obligatory post

sage raptor
#

Lmao

elder wigeon
#

seriously though, warrior isn't very fun right now

thick reef
#

its rly not lul

elder wigeon
#

I can't imagine a lot of people are having fun right now on their mains

#

play the fotm comp or suffer greatly

sage raptor
#

If your an arms main imo. Being forced to play a spec you don't like for the sake of more comps and such feels good for no one. Personally I like Fury so it's whatever.

elder wigeon
#

I'm tired of ret war and turbo I wanna play with my wizard friends

thick reef
#

ya\

#

but sadly better classes for wizards r there lol

#

its so dumb

sage raptor
#

I miss seeing arms in arena.

#

When I'm fighting them

elder wigeon
#

it's annoying fighting arms as fury

#

they can offensively parry your enrage regen

#

specifically in 2s

#

but fury v fury in 2s is just so boring and class envy

near delta
#

I honestly wanna just /afk when I see a fury 2s mirror

full quiver
#

Usually free win for me lol

elder wigeon
#

the most unfun matchup has to be surv rdruid where they play to kill your healer and play diamond ice for you

#

so cringe

#

spam stun trap root and clone you while they just run your healer down

#

had some cringe hunter spam emote me

full quiver
#

Lol

#

Were you on arms or fury

elder wigeon
#

fury

#

arms would be a much worse experience

full quiver
#

Lol

#

I haven't even come close to losing vs war with rdruid as healer

elder wigeon
#

there's not a whole lot you can do, if you reflect the trap you're gonna get spam rooted and cloned

full quiver
#

But also only faced like 1 war over 2300

elder wigeon
#

cuz there aren't any

full quiver
#

Yeah lol

#

Good war is harder to beat than good outlaw imo

elder wigeon
#

none of them care about 2's because it's such a bad experience

full quiver
#

I can't play melee in 2s after playing survival

elder wigeon
#

that's fair

full quiver
#

It's so aids

#

Nerd druids spamming root and restealthz

#

I mald so hard on dh lol

spice hornet
#

root not putting druid in combat

#

hehe

elder wigeon
#

i was insta 1800 in 2's on my outlaw that's 270 ilvl not knowing what any of my buttons do

spice hornet
twin sinew
#

We're taking the vers mast 2h this week right?

full quiver
#

I'm pretty good at it in 2s now

elder wigeon
#

I can win against any hunter NA in 2's except croqp (chun) and ssds

#

MM is the hardest spec to fight imo

#

survival is the easiest in my experience

full quiver
#

Lol

elder wigeon
#

but nearly impossible if it's survival and they go my healer

#

if they try to kill me they lose

full quiver
#

I think I could take you in a rematch with my rdruid

elder wigeon
#

if I have an rdruid and you don't try to kill my healer I'd put the odds 70% on me

full quiver
#

I just go both vs rdruids

#

Lots of rdruids are really bad lol

elder wigeon
#

not a winning strategy because I'll kill your healer in 3 goes

full quiver
#

I just trap into stun on fury during banner go

elder wigeon
#

especially if they're feral aff lmao they die so easy

#

I don't play banner in 2's

#

sucks ass

full quiver
#

Oh you're kyrian lol

#

Yeah I think spear is way better unless you're playing double dps

elder wigeon
#

not enough dmg to be worth not being able to kill healer

full quiver
#

You play volt too I'm assuming then

elder wigeon
#

yep have to

#

can't catch a druid without it

#

if they power shift your charge even with warbringer you can't spear them

#

so fuckin stupid

thick reef
elder wigeon
#

the good druids will cancel form in cat to insta travel form leap

#

have to chuck the spear same time you charge from max range and hope they don't leap out of it before it lands lmao

#

a few druids have and I vowed to never try it again

full quiver
#

I hate when I try and naked trap and they do that

elder wigeon
#

i hate spammable cc so bad in this expac

thick reef
#

yea

#

its stupid

near delta
elder wigeon
#

you can cancel form off global to power shift

near delta
#

You have to be the first form though right

elder wigeon
#

and they play feline swiftness or whatever it's called to maintain their speed when shifting form

near delta
#

Ohhhh

#

That's brutal lol

elder wigeon
#

yep

#

you're actually slightly faster in human form after leaving cat

spice hornet
#

Busted ass conduit

wheat crane
#

Oh nice

#

Mage 50% ms

#

Love to see it

lucid walrus
#

it'll get dropped to 25% for sure but it should be 0%

sharp meteor
#

sham moves a bit faster for 3 seconds every minute but druid just gets to nascar around with their 0 cdr conduit

full quiver
#

They're pretty weak offensively outside of combust

sharp meteor
#

kind of like how priest jhust has short grip

#

and rogue has 30 yard range step

full quiver
#

So they should have a 75% ms atleast tbh

wheat crane
#

Very true

full quiver
#

🤓

wheat crane
#

Class is underperforming needs these massive buffs

#

At least its frost only

#

But then again then youre stuck fighting frost mages all xpac

near delta
#

They really need to add a resonator talent but just for rogues, mages and priests

elder wigeon
#

lmao

#

RMP honestly wouldn't be that bad without trinkets

#

such a crutch

near delta
#

Yeah the kill potential with 0 cds is what makes it absurd

wheat crane
#

So its a garunteed kill

full quiver
#

Dude the counter spell thing seems super toxic

wheat crane
#

No matter what

full quiver
#

Aoe knock up lol

#

Knock mw up

Sheep them

Can you drop grounding in the air?

humble frost
#

yo guys

#

do i need unity on my neckpiece or is it fine to have it n the waist

elder wigeon
#

ideally on cloak or wrist, lowest stat piece

humble frost
elder wigeon
#

because it's the lowest ilvl piece

#

pvp gear is 311, legendaries are 291

humble frost
#

ah okay understood. 311 being 2100+? Sorry for all the questions just returning

lucid walrus
#

yeah 311's new duelist ilvl

humble frost
#

In theory id have time to grind the rep and replace that piece if i were to climb

#

okay awesome

#

appreciate it

sand shadow
#

this is fine

#

playing dbl time + warbringer on hook point and had about 98% uptime, ele did 3.2M dmg, I did 1.9M

mild thunder
#

question - when you guys play kyrian do you rotate reck/bladestorm for every spear?

obsidian loom
elder wigeon
#

@sand shadow i love no cds and ele just doing this for fun

#

I wish I hit that hard

#

60k dmg in .7 seconds

sand shadow
#

the nerds both start spamhealing and thornsing and moving the elemental if I try to touch it too 🙂

#

didnt know it was controllable, actually

wheat crane
#

Affis strong enough

elder wigeon
wheat crane
#

Specs always funny

#

Rng roulette on every cast

sand shadow
#

whatever it is, it's legit unwinnable, unless they're just considerably worse than me

#

at least it felt that way

#

both are just jumping around doing unhealable damage

#

I can't pierce through their def no matter what I attempt

#

Swapping on hots, getting perfect bashes on a clean druid w/ banner and reck, clean goes w/ bolt into bash, not even close really

#

the dudu just bears at 100% and frenzies at 100%, doesn't give a fuck keks

#

fun fact, I told my hpally friend I am no longer playing w/ a pala in 2s and forced him to log his 200-games XP rdudu and we 're doing far, far, far better

#

legit like 150MMR better

#

ain't that nice 🙂

warped warren
#

200 games is more than enough to play rd well

lucid walrus
sand shadow
#

yes, I am sure he is playing it on the same level as his r1 main that he's been playing since vanilla

lucid walrus
#

the "upside" if you will is that they can't have earth ele out at the same time if they do it

sand shadow
#

🤷‍♂️

lucid walrus
#

doesn't matter when they're in the untouchable triangle though

sand shadow
#

guy is getting spam hexed and hibernated as a dudu, nuff said about 200 games being sufficient

#

even the most broken specs take considerably more time to play well

simple rock
# sand shadow

if heals doesn't spam dispel flameshock you're in for a bad time

#

esp on ascendance procs

#

if it's aff/ele 🙏

sand shadow
#

thats the thing I wanted him to try

#

to try and spam dispel, despite control of lava

#

he can prolly eco selfheal it w/ tiny hots

#

idk

simple rock
#

it's only 10k dmg in max gear

#

20k if it crits but no ele is running crit rn

#

and the knockup

sand shadow
#

might be superior to what we tested

simple rock
#

yeah i've been playing a lot of ele lately

#

if they spam dispel flameshock you do FAR less dmg

sand shadow
#

not sure how much of a bother it is

#

the issue isn't even that we'll take less damage

#

but rather the near impossibility of scoring a kill

#

doesnt help that I am essentially forced into running DTime + Warbringer

simple rock
#

2s vs rdruid ele?

sand shadow
#

y

simple rock
#

lol yeah if the ele is good that is tough

sand shadow
#

dude, ferals and outlaws are tough

#

this felt literally impossible

simple rock
#

best bet is playing spear if you see a lot of rdruids and try to win in 2-3 goes

#

you won't kill an ele with an rdruid that has perma hot uptime

#

unless it's omega deep dampening

sand shadow
#

we can't win damp

#

he nearly doubles my dam

simple rock
#

yea he shouldn't though

sand shadow
#

and unlike us, can easily stop drinks

simple rock
#

if you play bloodrage and double time and your healer dispels on cd

#

they will have to drink a lot more

sand shadow
#

it is what I run

#

these are r1 players, its not so simple

#

even if the spam dispel Fshock strat has value

#

it does have a downside

#

they run static totem, and the dudu spam roots and controls me even out of tree proc

#

I can storm one in a minute, and BR 1 in 20s

#

add in roars, hexes (even if insta dispelled still disruptive), lasso, cap, bash and vortex

#

and its suddenly not quite so simple

#

all the while guy is jumping around spam casino procing anyone in sight for up to 50k each time

#

this last part might be made easier if we spam dispel, but then I won't touch

#

guy is even spam bear charge rooting me

#

doesn't care, he's full hp and in bear

#

even w/ full CDs I am not touching his health nearly at all

#

fun fact: dudus in bear have ~12k more hp than I do when I rally w/ the pvp talent and the condi

#

🤷‍♂️

wheat crane
#

Ursine is kinda a wild conduit at 278

#

Its basically a free rally everytime you enter bear at this point

simple rock
#

remember 1min rally

#

😭

wheat crane
#

Lmfao it is rally now at 278 ilv

#

I dhould gear up my resto druid

#

I dont see how they lose in 2s at this point to anything besides rm

#

Or other rdruids

sage raptor
#

Because the rdudus in 2s are bad

spice hornet
#

2s hero rdruid sickens me

simple rock
#

high rated 2s rdruid

#

pinnacle of gaming

nimble jasper
#

rdruid is just the 2s king

#

if we forget about patches/seasons where another healer is severely overtuned

sage raptor
#

Rdruids are the 2s king except when they're not

#

Lol

outlaw rdruid gives me aids

You can't parry ranged attacks

only weak warriors cant

How is it less aids

wheat jay

Id say its more aids

near delta
#

Double disarm one from 30 yards feels pretty bad lol

full quiver
#

Cause mw can die easier

#

But they're both omega lame

wheat jay
#

Mw dies easy

#

If its shit

#

Good mw never dies

sand shadow
#

because when you're finally hitting a MW, it "feels" like he's dying

dudus just fucking bear and it "feels" futile

Ornamental mana bar, tops themselves in 2 seconds when you don't have a stop

I love 10 minute games vs mw/outlaw

near delta
fickle forge
#

Peel you for 10 years and then they still lose at 80% damp

sand shadow
#

ngl, I'd prefer spam queieing into MW/Outlaw over rdudu/outlaw myself idk

#

at least monk IS punishable, it's just that these gaps are so tiny it's unlikely

#

that said, I have finally devised secret tech against outlaws Pepexecute

#

not sure how well it works with other healers overall, but w/ a dudu it works pretty well

#

I only thought of it after some 1800mmr randos did it to me on my outlaw; you basically and quite literally, spam CC them

#

You bolt them off CD, you fear them off CD, you disarm them off CD, the dudu roars them off cd, bashes them off CD, bear charges them off CD, clones until immune, root until immune, vortex off CD

#

Try it

#

they fucking deserve it

#

their own fucking medicine

#

do NOT press CC on the healer, ever

#

only aids the outlaw

#

try it a few games and see if it doesn't work

sand shadow
#

yeah I know

#

Ursine is simply busted

full quiver
#

Lol

sand shadow
#

dudus get up to 148k hp with it

#

not even gonna talk armor

wheat crane
#

Think theyre the worst offenders of ilv creep

sand shadow
#

or the fact that bskin is 45s

full quiver
#

Why do we not get that with dstance

#

???

#

Increased hp and armor for 4s

sand shadow

because the game is a hot mess balance wise

sand shadow

the incredible disbalance is best observed in 2s

#

Lol

sand shadow
#

which, of course, is much harder to balance for, for sure

full quiver
#

Yeah it's hard to lose as survival rdruid

#

We have to throw pretty hard lol

sand shadow
#

the thing w/ surv/rdudu is that

#

they can misplay, fail to kite, even during your full CDs

#

and the hunter will still NOT die, because rdudus do infinity ST healing

full quiver
#

Lol

#

Yeah

sand shadow
#

I am literally losing to them in like 6+ min games

#

w/ 2 traps overall

#

2 traps in a 6m+ game

#

imagine that

full quiver
#

Lol

sand shadow
#

not saying it doesn't take any skill to play that or other comps, ofc

full quiver
#

My guy is really good at vortexing properly too

#

Pretty impossible for warrior to do anything

sand shadow
#

it does, I can vouch for that because I spam lose to warriors on my outlaw for example dander

full quiver
#

I had a hilarious game yesterday as a side note

sand shadow
#

but they just have such an overwhelming comp superiority

full quiver

Stun MM on go, He trinkets, I trappers net

he was the first MM that I've seen run Venthyr

MM is feels busted

we absolutely smashed them both times

his burst "felt" much lower

I just ran impending and lol'd whilst using the priest for a target dummy

much skill, such woaw

full quiver

#

Yeah they do way more sustained

sand shadow

yeah, problem with that is that I am healed by a dudu

he might have 200 games lifetime on that class

but I am still immortal

Yeah so no way to win lol

literally immortal

to re-proc it

What is max aids

So they can just constantly swap back to bear

Also fun fact

whats max aids an outlaw anyway

My buddy who is big into gold farming has a full speed druid that runs faster than ground mounted speed

The 200% increase to rejuv/regrowth after a swiftmend pretty sure you can cast it with a ns in bear too

Just don't let him play the game

Kinda what I do on survival

When you get a back to back blunderbuss profs people just die

lucid walrus
#

gotcha

sand shadow
#

all that time

#

w/o a fucking outlaw shitting your entire class

full quiver
#

Training rdruid as war

sand shadow
#

you legit run them dry

full quiver
#

🤢

#

You play kyrian fury atleastM

#

?

sand shadow
#

tried both

full quiver
#

I like kyrian better

sand shadow
#

last 2 nights, 1 night I played only Kyr, last night just Necro

#

the reality has not changed regarding cov choice imo

#

kyr is really good into SOME stuff, necro into other stuff

#

if you could know what you'd face, you could make an informed choice

full quiver
#

Kyrian just feels more versatile

sand shadow
#

but you don't, so... 🤷‍♂️

nimble jasper
willow wraith
#

Necro or kyr arms how do I decide?

sand shadow
#

Kyrian is incredibly good into other warriors, for example

full quiver
#

I fucking got shackled, FD, into a spear yesterdat

#

Lmao

sand shadow
#

its really good into bash-the-healer-that-can't-really-escape matchups

#

into hunters, Kyrian is miserable

#

they refuse to FD

#

and you can't force them to reliably

#

at least I can't

#

Kyrian is poggers int ostuff where you go healer and his DPS wants to whack you, too

#

dbl spear on CD w/ CDR from Owl

#

for example, if you mirror warriors and you're Kyrian and he ain't

#

you shouldn't lose

#

and by that I mean, on average, you have a huge advantage

willow wraith
#

Then why ever go banner?

sand shadow
#

because you don't JUST meet warriors

#

and not ALL your matchups are Kyrian-favored

#

it's a mix

#

as I said, if you knew your matchups, you could try and min-max, but you don't

willow wraith
#

I like the consistency of kyr but I play prot war so I love banner playstyle

sand shadow
#

thats my personal opinion anyway

full quiver
#

Spear into hunter priest is poopy

sand shadow
#

based on my personal observations playings 2s these past week or so on EU

sand shadow
full quiver
#

But you can always get fade with it

#

Then blow everything lol

sand shadow
#

yeah but that's not an incredibly favorable trade...

#

them fading my spear hurts ME much more than it hurts them

full quiver
#

Well you can hit the pet

#

Get a serenity

sand shadow
#

I can still kick his fade and he is not doing anything in fade lest he drops the fade

full quiver
#

Then blow big dam on priest if they aren't flying

sand shadow
#

and if they are? 🙂

full quiver
#

Bad news bears

sand shadow
#

which, mostly, they are

full quiver
#

Lol

sand shadow
#

yeah, exactly

#

but imo, we've finally arrived at a parity between the two covs in 2s as warrior

#

imo, Spear was far poopier in prev ssns in 2s

#

Banner was just... better overall

full quiver
#

I think it was better s2 than banner

sand shadow
#

there were still matchups where you could get insane value out of Kyr ofc

#

idk, I was around 2900 2s in s2 as necro

#

mmr wise, don't remember CR

#

necro just felt multitudes better

full quiver
#

Lol

#

Tbf 2s is who has the better rdruid anyways

willow wraith
#

Ok how is the skill capped guide guy hitting 60k MS then

sand shadow
#

played w/ an hpala in s2

#

which is complete and utter poop now

full quiver
#

That's hella sus

#

Lol

sand shadow
#

do NOT play w/ an hpala

#

i repeat

#

DO NOT DO IT

willow wraith
#

I like getting dark arc while training a lock

sand shadow
#

HoJ, BoP, BoF, all three are enormous

#

add Rep on top and it's possibly S-tier

#

so long as hpala can do actual healing, which they cannot

full quiver
#

They have to be really good though

#

Rdruid can be half retarded

sand shadow
#

they need to listen to my calls and it works, you can never expect him to know as well as you when it is you require a BoF and especially BoP

#

so you need voice obv

#

just like you can't know as well as your healers when popping a defensive is ideal

#

esp now w/ LoD procs

full quiver
#

Watching Dno give his war a "charge" with intervene

sand shadow
#

you might be 20% and he has a proc next global

willow wraith
#

Playing w pala on comms kinda covers your rm games right?

sand shadow
#

and you just trade wall, because you're scared

full quiver
#

Without them being in comms lol

sand shadow
#

but he has you LoH'd next global

#

getting healers to give you intervene

#

is incredibly important

#

I've taught my minion well

full quiver
#

Lol

sand shadow
#

I am kidding ofc, he's not a minion 🙂

#

its actually not even that hard w/ an hpally, because he's usually in melee or close to it anyway

#

since he can't heal for shit w/o being next to the target anyway

paper oracle
#

hpal/war will always have a softspot in my heart

#

unfortunately they get farmed by hunters

#

can play reflect leggo to help

#

otherwise, hpal is pretty good

Does anyone know how much honor you need for full gear this season?

sharp meteor

A lot. 😵‍💫 Upgrading a full set from unranked to Duelist in a week or two is going to be nutty.

full quiver
#

I did it I'm 3 days end of s1

#

And had to run so many rbgs

#

And bgs

near delta

Is fury a meta rbg spec?

full quiver

No clue man haven't ran it since s2 lol

near delta

lol

And only did like 5

near delta
#

It's like the intersection of the worst people that pve and the worst people that pvp.

sand shadow
#

no kap, RBG-focused pvpers are... lets say they're a bit odd

sharp meteor
#

The three pvp achievements I'm missing are from rbgs because Hero isn't a feat for some reason.

craggy socket
#

RBGs be toxic af

wheat crane
#

Worst thing they ever did was make mounts and titles added to rbgs

#

Makes it a toxic cesspool of mediocre pvpers who think theyre good at the game

hasty crane
#

The thing is tho once you have the titles there's literally no reason to do RBGs

#

They have never had new rewards season to season

sharp meteor
#

Literally just do seasonal titles.

#

Cosmic Hero of the Horde, Tyrannical Hero of the Alliance.

Okay BM rdruid is till toxic af in 2s lol

nimble jasper

sharp meteor
#

Meanwhile 1900 peak 3s

nimble jasper
#

i only like it on outlaw

#

cuz its free cr

nimble jasper
#

on monk its a check if healer can heal to the second bonedust sweep

#

cuz hunter teams never trade properly for ww burst

#

like when they trinket petsac opener that he stacked his pet for

#

only for me to tab over and onetap his pet

spice hornet
#

Rbg mains worst players world

wheat jay
#

Playing with mechanical pet and macroing its skill to sac

#

50% wall for pet

full quiver
#

I just put pet on their healer or in Africa then sac my healer into door of shadows every go

#

If monk tries to go me they just lose

wheat jay
#

Scoob

#

You can just move pet away from monk when sweep is off cd

#

And use kill command only when he's not on you

full quiver
#

Yeah I move it with like 5-7s left on sweep

#

Don't want him getting tiger palm buff off it for free too lol

hollow elm
#

Do you guys find fury to be shit in bgs?

sharp meteor
#

Nope.

hollow elm
#

Just get kites nonstop

#

I probably just suck

elder wigeon
#

you get slammed for being a warrior though

#

won't change with being arms

sharp meteor
#

Yeah, Warr in general has a certain way is has to play bgs.

#

Honestly best bet unless you're jacked is to just rp that you're a bodyguard for some healer.

elder wigeon
#

legit both teams just try to 1 shot each other's warriors for some stupid fuckin reason

#

every temple of kotmogu is the same shit

#

both team's warriors die in the first 15 seconds

hollow elm
#

Thats so true.. Its almost making me reroll into something else.

sharp meteor
#

enraged might as well be karma

elder wigeon
#

warriors are ass tier in rbgs and world pvp it's just the way it's been since the dawn of time

hollow elm
#

Honestly melee in general imo

#

maybe its time I join the damn huntards

elder wigeon
#

some have it much better than others

#

but yes it is a melee problem too

hollow elm
#

Which melee do you think has it the best?

#

Just curious

elder wigeon
#

rogue obviously

sharp meteor
#

rogue is mandatory

hollow elm
#

Derp fair yeah

sharp meteor
#

if u wanna be frontline ooga booga i thought it was ret or fdk

elder wigeon
#

ret pallies are monsters in rbgs tbh

sharp meteor
#

if u want chill time in rbgs forever then warlock (aff) or mooner

#

or even better go bear/balance and be the most desirable thing

elder wigeon
#

mm hunters are always nuts in rbgs

hollow elm
#

Not really feeling ranged honestly. Maybe ill dust off the old DH and see how much it hurts

nimble jasper
#

rogue is generally s tier in rbgs

#

but you're not really a frontline melee

indigo barn
#

Warrior plays as the team fight shot caller who coordinates the cc and sharpens the kill target

#

However teamfights are so volatile that sharpen is pointless

#

Just stack 3 locks and a boomy and win every teamfight no problem

nimble jasper

might have something to do

with the disc being trained

@full quiver also kyrian hpriest

lucid walrus

they have absurd pressure but get heavily outdamaged in most of my games idk

indigo barn
#

Arms does more single target and 2 target dps, so it's not surprising.

nimble jasper
#

ye

indigo barn
#

It's just that it's dps is less spiky

And takes time for it to pull ahead

ur never gonna hoj the druid so just play short hoj and hoj warrior when we kite him away from his druid

forces the druid into sketchy positioning

or the warrior has to back off, both are good things

near delta
sharp meteor
#

They know you have spear, they plan to fade spear, but if you don't spear then they sit there on fade/gate/feign or whatever and eventually start burning other cds.

indigo barn
#

Or just throw spear and do normal hits?

#

Then go ham after?

#

Spear still does damage

sharp meteor
#

It depends. Just sending spear if they're going to immediately hop out of it isn't great.

#

Especially Aff who can gate every single one if they so choose.

#

Well, I guess all specs, but Demo don't usually like to give up that talent.

indigo barn
#

I guess I mean spear them, they gate/fade, then you hit the go

#

If they are going to get out of spear every time, you might as well make them 'waste' a cd

#

In 3's I have been spearing, we wait for fade to pass then go hard

#

I have also seen A LOT of warlocks who take a short stroll from the gate, making it an easy spear

simple rock
#

most good priests will check your cov before fading willy nilly

#

esp since it's hard to force fade without using your biggest cd in the first place depending on your comp

Oh wow. That sucks :c

sage raptor

I'm not a warrior main but I know he was huge in the warr community

That sucks

sand shadow

I can no longer remember much, but I believe the guild he was in in that clip, Nurfed, was also pretty well known in the beginning, at least on NA

think they were among the first few to slay Onyxia

gonna have to forget running alts for a while

its like 40-50k

its far more dude

allow alt trading

change starting ilvl of conq pieces based on your current CR

or any of a number of fixes

but nooooo

you'll see, my guess is that RBG activity will explode next week

I mean, it's not a terribly hard guess to make

warped warren

next ssn

its gonna be wod or w.e gearing

elder wigeon

i mean i won't arena until my warriors are full 311

no point

so yeah everyone and their mom will be rbging on tuesday

and honestly they should've just made all pvp gear 311 in pvp to experiment with their new gearing system for DF

really wouldn't be hard to do

sand shadow

that would make some sort of sense

and we can't have that in wow pvp

Any thoughts on Kyrian vs Necro for 2s with RSham?

winged totem
#

If we're way past haste cap, take massacre instead of frenzy or still take frenzy?

obsidian loom
#

41 is a shame

simple rock

still has value past that

#

I would only take massacre into rmp where you can't reliably maintain 4 stacks

warped warren
#

the drs are for haste values from gear

#

not %gains

simple rock
#

so even better then to keep frenzy

#

also what does way past haste cap even mean

#

you using a lot of m+ gear?

winged totem
#

@simple rock thanks boss!

#

im at like 39-40%

idk if thats even high lol

that's super high

I'm at 30% with max s3 gear + duelist s4 shoulders and belt

winged totem

ok lol well thats kinda the reason i was curious

your vers and mastery must be pretty low

why is my haste so low compared to yours lool. I have full haste gems + enchants

and your weap probably haste
