subjective i can understand and obviously wont argue

grand scaffold
#

WE GOT THIS

#

dang

#

been a while since ive seen league players

brazen rock
#

but when some soy cunt comes in here and talks about fucking joint inflammation cuz a mouse might be FOURTY GRAMS heavier

#

i laff.

shell mauve
#

which Arms build is better for bgs/ebgs? Like for being the frontline in grp fights

grand scaffold
#

then talent into bleeds

#

thats what i would try

shell mauve
#

oo ok ill try that

shell mauve
shell mauve
#

like instead of frothing bersker maybe

grand scaffold
sharp meteor
#

knock entire raid groups around with dragon charge

grand scaffold

not today not tomorrow

I can write in construction worker appropriate language if you prefer that

#

heavy mouse bad, wrist hurt more, light mouse good, wrist hurt less

brazen rock
#

IF A HEAVY MOUSE HURTS YOUR WRIST

#

DO NOT BREED

grand scaffold
#

and thunderous roar

#

just play a full bleeds build but also grab thunderclap and blood and thunder

bright stream
grand scaffold
#

and makes sure you get imp sweeping strikes

#

and bloodsurge could actually be good but im not sure its worth it

shell mauve
bright stream
shell mauve
grand scaffold
#

remove strength o f arms

#

yeah

shell mauve
grand scaffold
#

can you post the screenshot instead?

high star
#

bruh just got double warlock bm hunter two healing evoker solo shuffle on new map[

shell mauve
high star
#

what a toxic ass game for me

grand scaffold
#

remove barbaric training

shell mauve
grand scaffold
#

get honed instincts

#

and then also get furious blows

#

imo remove bloodsurge and get fbv

#

PROBABLY remove unhinged and get improved sweeping strikes

#

since we going for full on cleave

#

with bleeds fbv too good to not have

#

lemme know how that goes

thorn herald
#

You may as well keep unhinged

shell mauve
thorn herald
#

It's just extra damage

grand scaffold
#

imp sweeping strikes vs like 10 people

#

kinda nice

thorn herald
#

Why

grand scaffold
#

unhinged vs 10 people is garbo

#

because you get 21 sec of cleaving

thorn herald
#

3 more globals

grand scaffold
#

how long do you think a gcd is?

thorn herald
#

1.3-5 since we don't stack haste

grand scaffold
#

ima take it to be 1.2

#

i have 12% haste

#

now

#

6

bright stream
#

you get around 4-5 additional hits in

grand scaffold
#

divided by

#

1.2

bright stream
#

its quite good

grand scaffold
#

=

#

5

thorn herald
#

It's alright

bright stream
#

unhinged is hella meme

thorn herald
#

Might as well get 2 free Ms tho

grand scaffold
#

why

#

its vs 10 people

#

you cant target it

thorn herald
#

It's 4 more mortal strikes

grand scaffold
#

just

#

no

bright stream
grand scaffold
#

do you play unhinged vs unholy dk

#

which is ALWAYS THERE IN RBG

bright stream
#

the reason people typically play unhinged is that it works well with spear

#

and thats more or less it

thorn herald
thorn herald
#

And I'll either play unhinged into uhdk because I'm playing spear or I'll swap to the bleed build

grand scaffold
#

you cant target it

bright stream
#

I've generally got 6 active pets during the times you want to bladestorm

thorn herald
#

Yeah it's not great

grand scaffold
#

so dont use it

digital crater
#

Unhinged spiky as fuck, handy for closing out kills in a way improved SS isn't

grand scaffold
#

bro

digital crater
#

Obv not vs uh

grand scaffold
#

THERE ARE 10 PEOPLE IN A BG

#

how can unhinged be good

thorn herald
#

Not many talents to swap it too since we basically take everything in the tree we want

grand scaffold
#

it cant

bright stream
digital crater
#

Oh we're talking bgs

#

Fuck what I said then

grand scaffold
thorn herald
#

Yeah man people just clash 10v10 in the middle every bf

grand scaffold
#

bam

bright stream
grand scaffold
#

its not good

grand scaffold
#

and bg's

thorn herald
#

Another county heard from

copper hare
#

If I face dk/dh, I still take unhinged. there is certain moments where I can still global dh or healer in a swap with BS. Sometimes there isn't really a better option. Unhinged is still better than 7.5% bleed dmg

digital crater
grand scaffold
#

in general

thorn herald
#

It's just 2 free Ms that can end the game compared to 1% crit or... Bleed damage?

grand scaffold
#

streaming my 2.4 game

digital crater
#

I like bladestorm into dk/demo

thorn herald
#

Yeah it's random

digital crater
#

Or uh

#

What's the name of the other talent in unhinged's row

thorn herald
#

But there's no real crazy good alternatives

digital crater
#

That makes you go fast

thorn herald
#

Hurricane

bright stream
#

you can pick up several MS/Execute talents in lieu of unhinged, which is what a few R1s were doing recently

#

I've moved to a similar build and much prefer it

thorn herald
#

Like what

digital crater
#

Not sure about SS

#

I feel like spear into BS is so bonkers there and you get plenty of double or even triple spears if you're not rank 1

#

Where people prolly aren't eating those spears

bright stream
#

this is what I've been running recently, probably need to move away from WB to better CS but

#

wait 1 sec, wrong warrior

thorn herald
#

Because we can get everything

digital crater
#

What I don't get is why this loadout seems to fully pivot towards single target

grand scaffold
#

against ele sp

digital crater
#

Then goes WB over blunt instrument

grand scaffold
#

focus who

thorn herald
#

Unless you put points in Bloodborne and bloodsurge

grand scaffold
#

answer fast

#

please

thorn herald
#

Sp

grand scaffold
#

thanks

copper hare
#

sp and pray for ele to get nerfed next week in the meantime

bright stream
#

1% crit vs unhinged, unhinged slightly better vs some comps

#

worse vs other stuff

#

bleed dam also decent

thorn herald
copper hare
#

blademasters torment is so fucking underrated. Love this talent, specially into melee cleaves

#

the cleave during sweeping strikes is just disgusting.

thorn herald
#

Yeah it's nice

#

Psa bloodletting nerfed by 50% in pvp stop taking it unless you play sks

grand scaffold
#

๐Ÿš’

bright stream
#

I bounced to 2397 then 2399 at one point last week

copper hare
#

tbh arms since the changes is probably the best arms design I've played since legion, being able to obliterate people again but also being able to die feels like a good balance. Hope they don't overnerf mortal strike in the future

thorn herald
grand scaffold
#

warrior is like A tier

#

solid A tier

#

not s

#

i dont really think it needs a nerf

copper hare
#

war is high a tier but s tier in 3s in certain comps

thorn herald
#

Depends if they even care about 3s anymore

copper hare
#

it's only getting held back by rogue mage domination currently

thorn herald
#

Lol

sharp meteor
#

warr top tier if/when ele and assa get gutted

grand scaffold
copper hare
#

ye and ele aswell. ele in a caster cleave with rdruid is just brutal.

#

Assa doesn't even need step kick or cross cc anymore. Just tunnel one target and kidney on cd = auto win after 2 min max

#

hideous

sharp meteor
#

It's so much damage, man.

#

Healer goes to juke a kick and just die to assa/arcane throughput.

grand scaffold
#

oh

#

mages

#

FIRE MAGES

#

๐Ÿคข

sharp meteor
#

Because it's a second of not healing

grand scaffold
#

those are hitting too hard

copper hare
#

I still can't believe arcane is able to hit for 190k constantly, that's so fucked up

grand scaffold
#

have you seen fire mage atm?

#

its even worse

copper hare
#

Fire you can tunnel at least and it dies. Arcane on the other hand lives in another dimension

#

That was through my windwalkers wall

#

That isn't even arcane surge

Wizards in general

robust geyser
#

What conquest pieces do we prioritize as arms?

copper hare
#

weapon/off pieces

robust geyser
#

thanks ๐Ÿ‘

copper hare
#

If you don't have any kind of set you can buy chest and another one and convert them this and next week aswell for 2 piece

#

But rather wait for vault until you do it

robust geyser
#

is it worth wearing pve set pieces even in pvp?

copper hare
#

if they're not lfr and it's just for 2 piece then yeah

robust geyser
#

okay cool appreciate it

mental knoll
#

I think the hunter nameplate disappearing after feint death bug might be the most tilting thing ever in the middle of a fast paced 3s match

#

when i got 2300 i waited a few hours before queing

#

proced to lose it 2-3x then got 2400

best thing is to take a break

How ๐Ÿ˜ž i allwayz get stuck at 1700-1800 max

#

I am not the best awareness guy.. allways just hit stuff near me. And try storm bolt healer when i burst

#

Guess i need more practice

#

I was thinking of getting as many passives as posible so i have lowest keys to press.and that way i can watch better what is going on on the map

#

Solo

#

Will i do better in 3โ€™s?

urban skiff
#

definitely no

#

I mean you might

#

but the ratings in 2s and 3s are very deflated

#

even good people have low ratings because of it

pure hornet
#

I understand..

muted surge
#

Played some 3s yesterday and got full glad lobbies on ~1.4
Very fun

urban skiff
#

only use ratings to compare yourself to other people in the same bracket. Don't compare your 1s 2s and 3s among each other

urban skiff
#

at this point "#.# XP" listings are completely meaningless

pure hornet

I just pvp since 3 weeks but i dream glad title

#

Hope to get it in a year or two

I am also 40 y old so no great reflexes

my issue with solo shuffle is the que that takes ages

vernal palm
#

galachad, everytime i open this discord youre here somewhere QQIng about something

#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

So everyone seems to be playing Warbreaker now? whats your guys thoughts about it

hollow ore
#

it's poopoo

#

unless it's against pet classes

#

good thing is as long as we get frustrated playing into magic cleave

#

we're safe

#

cuz if we start having fun...

urban skiff
vernal palm
hollow ore
#

it... it does

vernal palm
#

well fucik me

hollow ore
#

warbreaker is just CS but on all target

vernal palm
#

whats the point of the talent then

#

yes

#

thats what im saying lol

#

one is aoe one is ST

hollow ore
#

to avoid getting soaked your SS into PETS?

vernal palm
#

I think we are talking about two different things

hollow ore
#

no

#

improved CS is a go-to

#

cuz you can do what warbreaker do

#

UNLESS there's a pet class

#

cuz then there's a chance your ss'd CS is soaked by a pet

#

IN WHICH CASE yes you pick Warbreaker (not everytime, it's kind of up to you)

#

so you're sure to proc CS on every (player) target

vernal palm
#

What talent is improved CS?

#

you mean BI?

hollow ore
#

blunt instrument yes

vernal palm
#

and what do you mean by SS?

hollow ore
#

sweeping strikes

vernal palm
#

Ok, now i understand...

#

lol

#

i was like what the fuck is improved CS

#

theres no such talent

#

yeah, thanks for the explanation it makes sense

hollow ore
#

no worries man

vernal palm
#

I am a fresh noob warrior, i didnt actually know sweeping strikes applies AOE CS

hollow ore
#

class has ALOT of sneaky shit going on despite common belief

#

I'd advise checking out Mud's youtube for some insight about those

#

such as mortal wound uptime and shit

bright stream
#

only people who think war is easy mode are people that have never played it beyond the gates of 1500

vernal palm
#

my impression was blizzard would never let that shit go

bright stream
#

IE mage/rogue players

hollow ore
#

fuck I hate rmp players

vernal palm
#

if theres an aoe talent for CS, why would they let sweeping strikes do the same thing lol

hollow ore
#

rmd's as well

#

same shit

bright stream
#

RMx literally scum

hollow ore
#

Warbreaker is EVERYTHING gets shit on

vernal palm
#

yes i know, but usually im fighting 2 players and their healer is 40 yrds away so ye

#

if theres no pets its gg

hollow ore
#

yes but then the DK spawns his ghoul or you get ran down by hunter's pet or the demolock's army

vernal palm
#

my dmg is gonna go up quite a bit after knowing this ๐Ÿ˜„

hollow ore
#

and your swept strike CS goes on a fucking imp

#

god I hate those fucks

lean burrow
#

some galachad

who's that

mild thunder
#

some shit fucking warrior that tanked ~200 rating today

lean burrow

he should reroll dh

which part of OCE are you in @mild thunder ?

lean burrow

#

5 people get connected to moon server

#

we all play with 1000ms

bright stream
mild thunder
#

even 120-140 is toxic

anything over like 80ms becomes super fucking cringe, esp playing melee

#

every now and again is fine, but every goddamn match

lean burrow
#

oh wait, you live in oce and get connected to us server

mild thunder

and oce 3s is dead beyond belief

Working on an alt and I"m confused

thick reef
#

Small indie company please understand

quaint snow
#

honor and conq gear is always fully upgraded in instanced pvp

topaz tulip
#

Put it here because it's a pvp item, and those stats don't fit. Curious if it's actual or bug, and if the value it shows at 411 is accurate to what it should be at 411

quaint snow
#

if you upgrade its only for pve purposes

#

probably a tooltip bug which they always have

topaz tulip
# quaint snow probably a tooltip bug which they always have

If it's common i"ll disregard. Was wondering if somehow the value it has here being lower somehow made the overall level lower at the top somehow, if that makes sense. If the scaling is wrong the end result would be wrong? If it works like that.

Before I used the Skullspliter one shot build but now for some reason it seems weaker then using Overpower and slam

Full ms build
I crit for 140k its crazy

On solo Shuffle I one shoted a rogue with Recklessness and Warbringer xD

digital crater

I was doing a bit tbh I think slam is unplayable

I think Spear + MS focus + UH into non pet matchups is basically the SS build right now

donโ€™t you miss out on bleed dmg from the thunderous roar set?

Spear gives 25% crit Dan increase

15%

#

no 25

15%

#

spear is kind of like a bleed too

past wren
#

ye but you should prio haste over crit with bleed build, no?

serene kite
#

Crit doesnโ€™t stop being good

#

Donโ€™t be overly dogmatic over stats. A few % of difference either way doesnโ€™t change much

#

STR is king. Everything else is secondary

#

Literally

I got like 30% crit, 8% haste in pvp ๐Ÿ˜…

#

Playing spear, bladestorm build btw

digital crater
#

If my goal is to execute a single target playing unhinged

#

Should I cancel BS to pump rotation after the 2 MS are out?

#

What do you guys think?

serene kite
#

If it looks like cc is going to be cast on you, then no

#

If you got a fat MS or execute available and youโ€™re in the clear, sure

lean burrow

then you can cancel and ms

How do I parry judgement?

Also, can't slap 100k ms when there's always a shield up.

lean burrow
#

what shield

#

oh yeah, shield of vengeance got its cd reduced I think

#

so wrecking throw is now good against them?

iron fractal
#

I think ret needs a few more buffs. Judgment, Justicars vengeance, final verdict. Do they have any spell that doesnt hit for 75-100 k?

flat dome
#

Fucking around with whirlwind talents is kinda interesting

grand scaffold

we have 100k mortal strikes every lke 30 sec

Does spell reflection work on judgement?

i think so

not sure th

#

tho*

iron fractal
#

The hunt.. 70k non crit.. 32% versatility.

grand scaffold

sounds about right

So frozen devotion is best for fury.. and which one for arms?

grand scaffold
#

the one and only

#

sophic devotion

iron fractal
#

How come that one is better for arms?

grand scaffold
#

well

#

fury does a lot of auto attacks

#

so frozen is good

#

arms does less auto attacks

#

so sophic devotion

Fury wants the Auto speed. Arms just wants to hit Really Fucking Hard

#

Death by a thousand cuts vs. Big Damage

#

This has been my first real pass at PvP and I started as fury. You can live a lot longer than you should with the self-heals and your initial spaz-out really hurts, but I felt like I just couldn't finish the job out. Arms somehow feels like I live longer and do the damage to kill people.

#

question: If I get a MS chain is it better to just keep slamming the button or should I be setting up the double Overpower damage increase?

How are u guys finding fury in pvp atm ? ๐Ÿ˜›

Not as good as arms

I like the Fury aesthetic more and it's fun just to flip the fuck out. I just rarely felt effective.

Yes the buffs helped but itโ€™s still hard to land kills with it

#

Vs arms

cedar flint
thorn sleet
#

Fury only has like... Six? Depending on macros and most of them are cooldowns.

sorry Arms*

I think

never rly played arms before ๐Ÿ˜›

It's fun. Try the Mortal Strike build.

quaint snow
#

can i do the catalist thing on an alt and use it on my main?

thorn sleet
#

don't think so.

#

you're pretty stuck with the 1 a week

quaint snow
#

i see

#

yeah in all these weeks i never got a tier piece... so i dont even have 2 set yet

#

XD

thick reef
#

Same

thorn sleet
#

i got lucky and got my second tier piece out of RF which is better than nothing

#

that being said if you convert Conquest gear into Tier Set it retains the PvP increase to iLvL

#

so that's probably your best bet

thorn sleet
#

oh re-reading the revival catalyst thing it grants a charge for all your characters? so everyone gets one?

#

The Revival Catalyst has charges which are capped at 6. Each week, you can complete an account-wide quest Revival Catalyst which will grant a charge for **all your characters**.

vernal palm
#

You do quest 1 time and every char gets an upgrade

#

But u cant use ur mains catalyst on ur alt, to upgrade 2 items

#

Thats what he was asking wasnt it?

quaint snow
#

yeah exactly

#

thats what i was wondering coz i read that

#

but if do the quest on my alt

#

i get another shot

#

so i can convert 2 this week?

thick reef
#

In order to unlock the quest u just hsve to get % right? Havenโ€™t done it yet

#

I mean the

#

Catalyst

wet stirrup
#

Its an account wide quest, you should get one for account with shared progress

When rets use burst I just throw it up for the 20% magic wall and it always gets knocked off and it looks like a judgement, but could just be some other thing

barren crane
#

how do ppl react to trap so fast?

#

whether u reflect or eat it for the healer do u just watch omnibar? look for the animation?

flat dome
#

80k evoker dps

#

God, pvp in this game is fucking trash

thick reef
#

u look to see if he has trap on cd and then u look at the hunters bodylanuge and see if hes running towards your healer, if he is its prob for a trap. also usally they put their stun on the healer b4 trapping

#

but genrally the best way to know if the hunter wants to trap your healer is if u see them running towards your healer with trap off cd or ur healer is in Intim stun and the hunter is in range to trap, in those situations u wanna try to get over to him to eat it

barren crane
#

Hmm Thx fam I'll try to be more aware of it

thick reef
#

np haha sorry if my explanation was weird at all, i just notice all those things b4 a surv traps.

#

but usally it will be Intim stun into a trap, just so the healer cant pre use anything or dodge trap because the stun locks them in place

You can't buy the upgraded Drakebreaker stuff anymore?

Hey Guys, i have a noob question, how do you get Tier bonus on pvp gear? Is it simply from the vault and the catalyst or have i missed a massive mechanic?

Speed or avoidance enchant for wrists and cloak?

is fury or arms the best spec rn?

arms

fury is alri, its def better then b4 because of buffs but arms overtakes it lol

also keep in mind

when i was doing that dmg

i wasnt scaling into pvp dmg

yo, can warrior win 1v1s now? Or still melts without a healer

220 k on sp with berserk and salt potionโ€ฆwithout execute stacks though

220k execute right?

hot solstice

Mortal

thick reef

oooh

thats pretty big without execute stacks

My ms does more than my execute

if u consume mortal with

how do you guys deal w/ rdruid pillar humping in 2s - I am disc/war vs rdruid war and I don't like to go arms 'cause he will cleave us, so I go rdruid. But then rdruid shifts every hamstring, bashes me into cc or pillarhump into restealth

can someone give me patch notes to jan 31st

quick ivy
#

Is Rend important to apply before we burst?

long ridge
#

no it's like a filler

#

imo

thick reef
#

it is a filler

#

100%

#

u can keep it up if u want but feels better to press when u dont have Ms, overpower, or hamstring

#

its more dam then slam so better filler then slam

quick ivy
#

True

#

But is MS important to get off before burst

#

im talking about opener

#

iknow its up 100% mid fights, but im practicing opening burst for shuffles

#

To force cds

gloomy hamlet

how would u rate 1v1 warrior vs DH?

How do arms handle eles? im having a really tough time with that line up in arena

Fury can also win the 1v1

Equal skill Iโ€™d say DH loses every time

long ridge
half rain
#

Actually wait I take that back. Equal low-ish skill war wins every time but I think higher rated dh players can probably win against high rated war. Just knowing what to do in specific situations with dh and not misplaying a single thing can win you 1v1โ€™s pretty easily.

covert talon

so is it normal to wait forever for SS que, todays seems excessive

inner sigil

dh slaps warr

if its a actual good dh

which most arent

its this legal

i didnt see any mage playing this

Not watching clickbait but Frost Mage seems good.

#

Arcane is def good and Fire seems a little on the weak side offensively

coral axle
#

idk why they gotta buff frost mage every week

crude bane
#

he playing a weird combo

coral axle
#

didnt that same guy get some arcane mage build nerfed too?

#

no idea what hes doing, it seems like hes just using ice lance spam instead of big ice lance

#

looks pretty degen tho

crude bane
#

i dont know i wrote " hunter solo shuffle "

#

this guy came out

#

on youtube

#

outside of this combo i guess he doing 0 dunno

#

they should removed mastery from this game ngl

#

they rework REtpal tho

how do you guys handle dk lobbies

to what extent do you folks use defensive stance as arms

If you dont have CD's they're going on you, and you need to run

if youโ€™re at all concerned you can camp it outside of your cdโ€™s or any pressure

just won 4 games in a lobby thats +90 mmr of mine and i got 0 rating gg

i've had the opposite happen, 2-4 in a lower lobby and still gained rating

top damge too just doesnt feel good tbh

coral axle

makes me think its the MMR of your team vs their team in each individual round thats counted, not the overall lobby

In 2 its like 9 seconds

And i get to play way more games.and with more games i can learn better

All i want is to learn

gloomy hamlet

all I want

is for frost mage to be really good in solo and 2v2

#

without a healer

Does BOP remove fatality stacks?

yeah bro

it does

muted surge

Or the display is just wrong

how do I stunt on evokers

long ridge

prevoker or devoker

pearl sierra

they seem to unleash 50k dps

#

devoker

long ridge
#

yeah u gotta

#

get through their burst

#

then keep training them eventually u can stick on them

#

keep bladestorm and avatar for anti root only

pearl sierra
#

ok

long ridge
#

and when u start on them

#

run up to them then piercing howl, dont charge in

pearl sierra
#

should I interrupt devastation?

long ridge
#

that way u have 2 charges and a leap

trail hamlet
#

yea man all my games right now. someone afk's 2 rounds to ensure we the melee for 2/4 lol. wtf is going on

long ridge
#

idk i just interrupt anything i can maybe that's bad

#

they are prob tanking their rating on purpose...

#

report them

trail hamlet
#

no they said fuck melee

#

and just afk 2 rounds

#

okay well

#

report them

only play round 6 if they're gonna lose. just strange

how would u rank dps classes for survivability, defensives and self-healing?

top 3?

nimble jasper
#

warlock warlock and warlock

wheat jay
#

True

#

3 diff specs

gloomy hamlet
#

feared as much

maiden crag
#

Unholy DK deserves to be up there too.

nimble jasper
#

unholy flops to melee

gloomy hamlet
#

what is it that warlocks use that means u can plough everything into them and they just take it

nimble jasper
#

uhh

#

their whole class

#

diff stuff per spec

#

oh and darkpact

gloomy hamlet
#

why are warlocks designed to be so much stronger than other classes?

nimble jasper
#

idk tankiest specs arent necessarily the best

#

probably because they cry the most

#

when they arent tanks

mild thunder
#

they're not designed to be stronger, they're designed to be tanky

#

because it fits their class identity

nimble jasper
#

their class identity is also having every cc school

mild thunder
#

the problem isn't their tankiness, it's that they're also now crazy mobile

gloomy hamlet
#

my class identity is killing warlocks

#

where's the buffs bliz

maiden crag
#

Blizzard doesnt change classes based on people crying on reddit and the forums. They'd have to actually read feedback for that to be an actual reason.

nimble jasper
#

play assa sp

#

and you get free pts

#

off lock teams

#

xd

nimble jasper
#

sin rog technically squish its just

#

if you get out of cc

#

and dont die in the process

nimble jasper
#

and their zoo

gloomy hamlet
#

afflic too

#

and I have to say, fighting warlocks in 2v2 when I have no healer feels really bad.

nimble jasper
#

nah aff you just line the second they pop their cds

#

and they dont do anything

tribal wedge
#

i'm playing with an assa rogue friend in 3s, how are supposed to be his damage? like i outdamage him roughly (like 2 times his dam every game), and i don't know if it's normal, or if he suck :/

nimble jasper
#

why are you playing without a healer

gloomy hamlet
#

I don't have a pvp healer friend

maiden crag
#

You shouldnt be doubling his damage, thats for sure. But comp plays a lot into it.

nimble jasper
#

altho rogue warrior sucks

tribal wedge
nimble jasper
nimble jasper
#

yeah assa you kinda just

gloomy hamlet
#

actually I main frost mage xD

mild thunder
#

any complaint is irrelevant if you're trolling and playing w/ no healer

nimble jasper
#

do at least 20k all game

tribal wedge
nimble jasper
#

when only pressing buttons during kidney

gloomy hamlet
#

but the same is true for that too

nimble jasper
#

lmfao

#

the troll thing to do vs other melee on small pillar maps

#

is just los around the pillar when stun dr

#

and just keep them slowed with cripple through the pillar

nimble jasper
#

if you arent good

gloomy hamlet
#

yup

#

so what I'm looking for

#

is something that he great self healing xD

nimble jasper
#

or just dont play 2sโ€ฆ.

#

doesnt matter tbh

#

if youโ€™re less experienced you arent winning as double dps

#

even double hybrids with good selfheal youโ€™re likely missing fundamentals of how to play

gloomy hamlet
#

I want to 1v2 enemy teams like a pro

#

big dreams

nimble jasper
#

not gonna do that

#

unless youโ€™re way higher exp than the other team

waxen oasis
#

Whatโ€™s the usual cd of colossus smash with anger management?

nimble jasper
#

rogue is the best at 1v2

#

unironically

tepid peak
#

Whats the best gear for pvp?

gloomy hamlet
#

why is it unironic?

mild thunder
#

depends on uptime tho

nimble jasper
#

cuz their self healing isnt good

mild thunder
#

low uptime, ~38-40s

#

high uptime 30-32s

nimble jasper
#

rogue relies on spam resetting

gloomy hamlet
#

true, but they at least HAVE self healing

waxen oasis
nimble jasper
#

alot of low rated rogues are bad and dont retreat

#

when its necessary

gloomy hamlet
#

unlike my mage that has an iceblock that can be removed

nimble jasper
#

are you high

mild thunder
#

if you want self-healing, play a hybrid

nimble jasper
#

sub rogue is the best 1v2 spec

#

if you q into bad players

#

who grief their wall and trinket

#

then you kill one and afk till cds are back

gloomy hamlet
#

so is warrior only really good if it can rely on a healer?

nimble jasper
#

then kill other guy

#

1v2 requires good reset potential

#

and burst

#

warrior more for drawn out fights

#

like you take ww for example

#

low rated players say its squish

#

higher you go people say wws dont die

#

positioning is prob the most crucial form of damage mitigation

#

that people miss

cinder thorn
#

So the str enchant makes how much difference to the MS?

cinder thorn
cinder thorn
tribal wedge
#

600 attack power

cinder thorn
#

What's ur total attack power without it

#

So I can work out %

tribal wedge
#

idk

cinder thorn
#

Ok

#

Thx

#

Been unlucky with vault no tierset yet just 1 piece

nimble jasper
#

dark iron more raw str

#

technically

#

sophic devotion is just better though

cinder thorn
#

What do people typically get as dps on the pvp scarecrow thing in Veldrakken?

By 1M damage I usually reach 50 tops and I don't feel its great

nimble jasper
#

why are you testing dummy dps

#

for pvp

cinder thorn
#

For best rotation ideally

nimble jasper
#

lolโ€ฆ.

#

too many variables

#

to be dummy testing

cinder thorn
#

I know that

#

But just for ideal situation

#

Like healer standing there while u pound

nimble jasper
#

no one does that but ok

cinder thorn
#

It doesn't matter why

For those that test dps on dummy

#

What's your dps value by 1Mill mark or so that's a few seconds into the fight

nimble jasper
#

1mil mark

#

tf are these metrics

#

if you dont know how to pve people read the pve guide

#

?

#

then make adjustments

thorn herald
#

People use the dummy because it increases your ilvl

nimble jasper
#

when is other team peeling

#

and/or using defs

flat dome
#

That isn't the purpose of dummies

nimble jasper
#

dummies moreso you can see what some abilities can hit for

flat dome
#

Well, yes. So I don't understand the snide comments.

nimble jasper
#

like what is it supposed to measure

#

someone whoโ€™s afk?

jovial meteor

im really struggling vsing disc

#

theyre doing so much dmg

long ridge
#

disc is really strong

๐Ÿ™‚

what bracket are you in

in 2s i often kill disc

#

arms is actually pretty good at killing disc

jovial meteor
#

yeah nvm

trained em and kille dhim

#

1700

shy geyser
#

Anyone else lagging like a MF when in a bg or multiple people are grouped up? only since patch

high star
#

warrior has always been good vs priest

#

pretty reliable kill target no matter the spec

#

low mobility and u counter their main cc

long ridge
#

how do i increase my pve dps for this encounter (mage tower)

maiden crag
long ridge
#

shit

#

sir this is an arbys

maiden crag
#

But it you want help that screenshot is going to need a DPS parse to see the rotation.

long ridge
#

i actually got him down to 50% but i ran out of space

maiden crag
#

I meant posted in the PvE channel, lol.

#

We just zug zug here and make up fake big MS numbers that we actually get on target dummies instead of actual players.

left laurel
#

Do you guys ever recommend going Blademaster's torment and then storm of destro over Warlords and warbringer?

long ridge
#

yeah for double melee

#

like if ur against 2 melee and u can cleave them

#

or 2 melee and a hpal or restro shaman and u cleave all 3

left laurel
#

I'm trying to get better but I'm just hardstuck at 1700 haha

long ridge
#

but if it's 1 melee 1 caster u prob on caster and dont do it

#

1700 what, SS?

left laurel
#

yeah, 1500 3s

maiden crag
#

SS is MMR limited by queue times more than player skill. Prove me wrong.

left laurel
#

SS is limited by whoever gets the hunter on their team loses

maiden crag
#

I literally just don't have the patience to wait 30+ minute for a 10+ rating increase anymore, lol.

long ridge
#

i think in 1.7k SS it doesn't matter if u go blademaster or w/e

maiden crag
#

1.7k in SS most players don't even know how to apply DPS correctly, let alone CD trade.

left laurel
#

I don't think I'm doing my rotations right but I'm not exactly sure what they should be besides opener. I try to always stack CS and Overpower and MS but I think I'm just giga dumb

long ridge
#

at least 1 gb dumb yes

maiden crag
#

I mean Arms doesn't have a true rotation in PvP. More like an ability priority for sustained damage, and some slight re-arrangement for burst windows.

long ridge
#

yeah he's right

maiden crag
#

Probably the better thing to look at is not the rotation, but WHEN you are using damage CDs. If you're getting hard countered/CC'd in your burst timing, you and your team aren't setting up plays prior to burn those before you cash in your chips.
