Well that is three lobbies in a row with 3 warriors.

the word is out and the free rating is being collected

not fun to play the game like this.

I dont blame anyone for playing a warrior though. look at this awesome package:

160k crits (plas fatal effect)
huge, braindead application of MS in a dampened arena
Two Snares
A root that locks you down and hit for 100k
2x charge
2x leap
1x intervene
auto attack damage more than a rogue shadowstrike
rallying cry
1x AOE undispellable fear
another AOE (cone) root on free charge
1 X stun
1 X free dispel plus 20% health heal
1X half health heal every 30 seconds
1X immunity
immune to CC on bladestorm which they have 2 times a minute
1X spell reflect if you want to peel
1X root break with avatar
and 17 spells that modify their damage higher

Something has to give here.

#

just dumb knights

they run out of range of healer

#

los healer

#

play as if they a surv hunter

#

legit daft

muted surge
#

Did you get out of 2.2?

grand scaffold
#

yeah

#

#

then tanked to 2290

#

#

lmao

#

oh well

#

im bought to get out again

muted surge
#

Oh close

#

Soon you gonna have it again :)

grand scaffold
#

yeah

frank violet
#

As a newer warrior player (me), what's the biggest mistakes you see most arms (I've never played fury) warriors making in arena? I'm currently around 1100.

wheat jay
#

Not doing dmg

muted surge
#

My biggest mistake was not checking were my heal is / or if they are ccd

wheat jay
#

Damage is PRIORITY

muted surge
#

But that’s general I guess

wheat jay
#

Once you do dmg you can improve other shit

muted surge
#

When I play against other war / rogue / monk I just get randomly disarmed, also kinda bad

frank violet
viral charm
#

so is pvp gear still messed up if i try to turn a conquest piece into tier pvp gear it loses it's upgrade ranks and i still cant put sockets on my pvp neck

wheat jay
#

Trading defensives

#

Then positioning

grand scaffold
#

never staying in 2200

wheat jay
#

Since positioning is tricky

grand scaffold
frank violet
frank violet
wheat jay
#

Dont line your healer

#

Dont chase too far

#

Make others chase you if possible

#

Line dmg when needed, but you need to know trading defensives/offensives to know that

#

That's why positioning is tricky

#

Especially on warr cuz you want to zug zug

#

But you cant zug zug at all times

frank violet
#

All good points. Thanks for all of that. I really appreciate it.

wheat jay
#

Main priority is dmg

#

Be it st, cleave, aoe

#

Can't win without dmg

#

Funny enough the best warr i played with in SS was playing bleed build

#

2nd dmg rend

#

1st mortal

#

Man was chunking

grand scaffold
#

yeah

#

bleed build hits really hard

#

artji what cr you at

frank violet
#

Can you define "chunking"? I'm assuming that means "hits real hard"?

wheat jay
frank violet
#

I'm currently playing spear. Would you recommend playing bleed instead?

grand scaffold
#

i was 2.4 now 2.3

#

solo shuffle sucks

wheat jay
#

Ndogo my man

#

Survi so bad now xD

#

I need to do acrobatics on my dick to win games

grand scaffold
#

lmao

wheat jay
#

And then I see a fucking APE

#

LEAP TO HEALER

#

THAT I JUST TRAPPES

#

AND HE CHARGES BACK FERAL

#

HE LEAPT ONLY TO BREAK TRAP

grand scaffold
#

lmao

frank violet
#

Is bleed build the way to go?

#

I'm currently spear

wheat jay
#

From what i've seen, yes

#

But also depends on matchup

#

Against other plate, 100%

#

Goes through armor

#

People generally dont respect bleed dmg either cuz its a dog

grand scaffold
#

but bleed build is really good

#

i think better than spear

steel trout
#

😡 stop hating on spear

warm portal
#

I'm still 1 deaging people with spear build

frank violet
#

Does spear's attractiveness come from the burst and rooting potential?

grand scaffold
#

mostly the root

#

troar just slaps the fuck out of people tho

warm portal
#

Like 80k initial because of avatar/csmash applied

frank violet
warm portal
#

Its not required but I play both spear talents so I have the increased initial impact dmg

frank violet
#

I've typically been doing stun, spear, avatar, csmash, rend, mortal strike, bladestorm

warm portal
#

Rend before all of that

#

Waste of a global during burst

frank violet
#

good call

#

(thank you all for the help, by the way)

steel trout
#

also depends if u play blademasters or the warlord torment shit

warm portal
#

If you play blademasters I wouldn't worry about trying to giga buff your initial spear dmg

#

At least I dont

slender lion
#

the 3ilvl wiont make much of a diff on these right? im using the 421 version since its crit/vers

modern grail
#

given the stats your drakebreaker is much better than the conq one

#

even at 421

slender lion
#

yeah thats what i thought, thats why im using it lol

#

was just double checking

warm portal
#

Idk if that crit is worth the weapon dmg tbh

slender lion
#

of 3 ilvl?

warm portal
#

I mean its purely feelcraft but the only time I've really seen people choose lower ilvl for preferred stats is on BM hunter gun, ele shaman shield, etc

#

Or maybe jewelry because of lack of main stat

#

But more weapon damage and mainstat? Idk man id prob use the 424

modern grail
#

would surprise me if it made much of a diff. also if you don't have the gold to buy another sophic then its moot cause that enchant alone is alot better than frozen

warm portal
#

Time to buy a big 3 star sophic

frank violet
sharp meteor
#

It's just a buff.

warm portal
#

Just gives you reck on avatar & cmash

sharp meteor
#

Basically for a few globals on each smash or ava.

warm portal
#

Yes

sharp meteor
#

Which feels really good with current version of Arms which loves crit.

#

Big meaty hits.

frank violet
#

Ahh okay -- that makes perfect sense. I thought it was only for Fury, my bad.

Second question -- if you're going bleed build instead of spear, you want more haste, correct?

modern grail
#

arguable / preference. haste and crit are about even

frank violet
#

Okay -- with bleed build, would still go warlords?

sharp meteor
#

Well, yeah. I'm not sure what synergy an extra storm has.

modern grail
#

yeah bleed build often doesnt take unhinged, and even with unhinged blademaster can be a dps loss

frank violet
#

That's what I was thinking. Wanted to make sure I was thinking in the right direction.

sharp meteor
#

Just feels weird and awkward with that setup unless you're using second storm to dodge cc.

#

Actually trolling if no unhinged, too.

late nacelle
#

Any 424 ilvl CHADS?

torpid prawn
#

only 420 here.

sharp meteor
#

I think that I have unspent conq on most my warrs

#

probably only like 1 piece off full gear

warm portal
#

423

sharp meteor
#

1300 conq left

frank violet
sharp meteor
#

Idk about no storm at all.

torpid prawn
sharp meteor
#

I meant no blademaster/unhinged.

frank violet
#

Ahhh okay. Thanks for clarifying.

sharp meteor
#

Gearing is so quick now.

#

Only two weeks for 4pc on everything, too.

torpid prawn
#

i'm capped on conquest as i geared for fury and switched to arms a week and a half ago so im trying to re spec

sharp meteor
#

Oh did you buy a second 2h

torpid prawn
#

yeah for fury

#

and shoulders/head

sharp meteor
#

Yeah that's why I was curious about the ilev

torpid prawn
#

i only have 2pc atm

sharp meteor
#

God fury tier is so awful

#

wasn't it originally like 10% crit on execute keks

late nacelle
#

Kinda interested in seeing how good a 418 crafted frost belt would do in arenas

torpid prawn
#

i loved fury, then i played arms for a week and now fury feels plastic

late nacelle
#

20k dmg procs

sharp meteor
#

Fury felt like inting after slaughterhouse deletion

#

Blizz just nerfing core mechanics by like

#

half or more

torpid prawn
#

do ya'll stance dance

sharp meteor
#

SL they just legit just dstance in half keks

slender lion
# warm portal 423

i mean yeah prob some, feal crafty around it, ill try out the 424 one again. it is slightly more verse and bleed from DW

torpid prawn
#

i had a healer tell me in one of my solos to plz stay in defensive the entire 6 rounds and i was like wtf

sharp meteor
#

I mean you try to avoid it but between goes and stuff if you're trading unfavorably

grand scaffold
#

i swear if ret gets 40 yd range

sharp meteor
#

or have a sketchy mog lmao

grand scaffold
#

im protesting

torpid prawn
#

they trained me pretty hard the first round and wouldn't get off me

sharp meteor
#

i got into lobby with a gnome hunter and the healer is like

#

pls sir just sit in camo

#

let the warr kill them

torpid prawn
#

lmao

slender lion
#

i love how strong arms is lol

torpid prawn
slender lion
#

its insane

sharp meteor
slender lion
#

i get cc'd alot and ignored cause they cant kill me and i smack them for like 20% a time

warm portal
#

Feel like ret sucks balls rn

sharp meteor
#

dstance if ur having everything dumped into you

#

and not using offensive cds

grand scaffold
#

i hope ret gets nerfed

sharp meteor
#

like outside of smash windows or w/e you still maintain mortal strike

torpid prawn
#

ret better get nerfed. they're so broken

torpid prawn
#

i suck . i feel like im learning warrior all over again

sharp meteor
#

like ITS BAD overall because you're going negative BUT

#

sometimes it's like

#

you're doing 15-20k dps

#

enemy team doing 50k dps into your skull

#

you WILL NOT KILL in the near future

#

just dstance

#

also remember reflect is a 20% wall for 5s

slender lion
#

~

sharp meteor
#

which is rly good into ret dk etc

late nacelle
#

Dont forget shield swapping. 30% dr vs phys with a 15 sec CD

modern grail
#

if you queue SS and do a BG, does your place in SS queue advance?

torpid prawn
#

damn wise , you'r estill at it with shield swapping

late nacelle
#

Single handedly got me to 2400

torpid prawn
#

are you trolling

late nacelle
#

No

#

Use shield swap its op

sharp meteor
#

hmm in general i think swapping is inefficient but if you're being trained by a cleave

#

it seems decent

#

maybe

torpid prawn
#

i have never shield swapped

late nacelle
#

Also SKS build

#

Way better than spear

torpid prawn
#

wise i can't tell

#

if you're trolling

late nacelle
#

Its not

modern grail
#

if it is, it's a very consistent, dedicated troll lmao

torpid prawn
#

very dedicated troll

#

he's long game

late nacelle
#

SKS can easily hit 300k

#

Its just better

modern grail
late nacelle
#

And u get a big go every CS instead of spear CD

grand scaffold
#

how

torpid prawn
#

MUD

#

can you sks and shield swap

#

and let us know

elfin surge
torpid prawn
#

if gnome is a torll

late nacelle
#

I never hit 400k

#

My max is 210k MS

elfin surge
#

i hit a 500k once

modern grail
#

tf

#

reported

#

cya

torpid prawn
#

damn.. 500k

late nacelle
#

But keep in mind

elfin surge
#

@torpid prawn what are u asking? Do we shield swap in DF?

late nacelle
#

Im also running hurricane and double dps trinkets

modern grail
torpid prawn
frank violet
late nacelle
#

I learned that mine was bad apparently

elfin surge
warm portal
late nacelle
#

U can do it with equipsets

torpid prawn
late nacelle
#

1 set with shield + 1h, one with 2h

elfin surge
torpid prawn
#

that's what i thought.

modern grail
late nacelle
#

Wdym

#

Its good

late nacelle
#

U can even int ur dbts and then shield swap next go

elfin surge
#

I tested it in shadowlands and shield would give you 8% damage reduction vs physical which isnt that much in a world where no classes are pure physical. Plus weapon swapping triggers multiple globals and isnt worth.
I don't even think you can mortal strike with a 1h

modest rapids
late nacelle
#

U can MS

#

Or was it op

#

Or both

#

Hmmm

modest rapids
#

you can OP, you cant MS

#

with 1h

late nacelle
#

I mean

modern grail
#

during swap you can rend, clap (if trolling), OP. macro MS so that if you don't have 2h equipped, you swap to your 2h

late nacelle
#

Its good dr against fast low hits

modern grail
late nacelle
#

Its less good vs 210k mortal strikes

modest rapids
#

tbh I swap back to 2h as soon as im out of stun so I can start smashing heads

#

but sitting in stun with shield helps a little

torpid prawn
#

so... greyson gnome and turtel, ya'll shield swap

#

is what i'm hearing

late nacelle
#

Yep

modern grail
#

in theory

modest rapids
#

yeah but im also bad

frank violet
#

What is SKS?

modern grail
#

gnome + looking at numbers convinced me, but i haven't run enough SS to practice in the last 48h

late nacelle
#

It just extra way of surviving

#

Good tool to have

modest rapids
#

no you gotta predict

modern grail
#

ah kk

Never dstance never peel just big fucking dam and you'll hit 2k

torpid prawn
#

so just prioritize dam

late nacelle
#

Then shield swap

torpid prawn
#

you use two dmg trinks?

torpid prawn
frank violet
#

I always find it's impossible to get into RBG groups. I spend too much time requesting to join in the group finder.

late nacelle
#

For 2k -> 2.4k

#

Worked for me

modern grail
#

except vs rogue

warm portal
#

It won't make you better but if you literally just execute your big dam sequence correctly you'll hit 2k

torpid prawn
#

ok fsho

warm portal
#

Never shield swap and use 1 dps trinky

torpid prawn
#

greyson's big dmg sequence the standard?

late nacelle
#

2 dps trinkets

#

Hurricane

#

300k skullsplitters

modern grail
late nacelle
#

U will onetap people

torpid prawn
#

oh, what's your dmg sequence

#

i need that BIG D energy

#

right now

late nacelle

Wait for proc trinket

Bladestorm

modern grail
torpid prawn
#

oh fsho

warm portal

Don't wait for proc trinky thats dumb literally just crash into people itll proc mid burst

late nacelle

with this big d

quaint osprey

under 2k

quaint osprey

defense when heal is cc = gigachad

modern grail

2k-2.4k
shield block = chad

warm portal
#

Mortal strike, double stack overpower, (can bolt here) avatar+csmash, spear, big sharpen ms into unhinged bladestorm
Literally do that every game and you'll hit 2k i promise you

#

And don't put a shield on ever

muted surge
#

@elfin surge are you using shield block?

late nacelle
#

I think the double stack op before cds is a big mistake tbh

#

Op can hit 100k itself

modern grail
torpid prawn
late nacelle
#

Better to have those in ur burst window imo

quaint osprey
#

how do you use shield block critcake

muted surge
torpid prawn
#

maco > hands

warm portal
#

No but you prob could. Wont be 100% optimal but if you're losing time on globals anyways

torpid prawn
#

alright

#

i'll print that out and post it on my screen

#

and hit 2k

late nacelle
#

Just use SKS build, double dps trinkets, shield swapping

#

Auto 2.4k

torpid prawn

if he's a troll, he is probably the most consistent one i've ever met

if he's not

then i'll try it if my big damage doesn't get me to 2k

quaint osprey

Anyone in here can give me a quick tldr how you swap to shield real quick sadge

If you have a char on 1.5k cr and 1 on 1k, you play on 2k until you get 1.6, so no matter how much you lose you won’t be below 1.5

#1 war reaches 1600

and how they wining about warriors when pally's crit 250k

elfin surge
#

I’ve recently begun playing my sin rogue again because DH got boring.

I’ve found the experience climbing very frustrating. Rogues can only land kills if we land CC perfectly, much of our win conditions being totally impossible in solo shuffle.

It doesn’t matter how well I play when some ape warrior storm bolt drs my kidney and then bladestorms my blind.

So I have a proposal to make rogues more viable in shuffle.

Take our stun DR off normal stun DR for one. My kidney shouldn’t be halfed because some orc zugger macro’d his bolt to charge.

Also blind should work more like cyclone or DK blind. Either making the target immune to damage during it, or make damage not break it immediately.

Additionally, I’d like to see smoke bomb have a pull effect like spear or at least druid vortex to make it more viable in an uncoordinated zugfest.

It’s already hard enough to climb as a rogue, please do something to make our kit actually work.

Buying the weapon is inefficient in terms of getting max ilvl fastest

But I guess it will help me a lot in the short term

I bought 2 weps

yes but with the way pvp gear work rn it's not that big of a detriment to be slightly lower ilvl

1 for sks build 1 for zug build

Also bought 1h and shield

So now the question is sword or polearm

Both are good

Defensive aspect of vers isn't crazy but

craggy meteor
#

Side note: anyone else feel like thunderous roar is kind of awesome now? And maybe better than spear?

sharp meteor
#

Spear feels too good unless the team has a reliable out.

#

Which is dk and warlock.

#

warlock can also gate their teammates

craggy meteor
#

Yeah spear is still nice

#

But roar pumps

#

If you can get 2 or more of them

torpid prawn
#

i can't imagine not having spear

#

while bladestorming

craggy meteor
#

And the talent after it which also increases rend and deep wounds is cool

late nacelle
#

Dont forget weaving i heroic throws on charges when sweeping is on CD

craggy meteor
#

In a test on a dummy just running through a full CD rotation with a bit of execute, roar, rend and deep wounds added up to 25% of my dps single target

#

Kinda big

quick carbon

roar can pump for sure

#

the bleed can crit for almost 30k

craggy meteor

Probs gonna stick with spear for now. At my CR, people don’t know how to deal with it

quick carbon

in ur cds

i like roar vs warlock/dk teams

But roar unhinged build is kinda interesting

i even played it vs mage feral in shuffle just now

cuz its more fun

chase your target then

i just do what warriors have always done before shadowlands

the old ways are less common

feels like the roar unhinged is topping in SS ladder at least

Usually a flex point. You'll get to a spot where you have to spend a point in like 1 of 3 undesirable talents

#

Let's you smack totems harder sometimes

fatality vs unhinged? how much does fatality normally do?

also kinda crazy how you can spec for +30% crit and +90% dam for slam and the base dam is so ass it isnt worth it

Everybody is hyping up SS with marginal rewards meanwhile the "main" PvP Content is getting ghosted like my emails

might be chill eventually here it's already kind of inflating but

they will likely prop up ladder in later seasons

s1 always highest participation and it's dead rn

and because it's dead and hard to push nobody queues

#

so it's deader and harder LMAO

quaint osprey

Technically there are players but blizzards pogchamp mmr system hinders them from getting matched

But they really did themselves no favor with not giving SS some kind of nice cosmetic rewards

maybe in S2 then

healer specs only and i'm in

they always could rebalance 3s later on if it should get stomped to the ground

to 2.1 + 50 wins if times are that dire

everybody wanting 3s to be easier but nobody wanting to play 3s curious

they'll prop up ladder in s2 but idk about this season

getting pounded by glad mounts at 1700 will do that

unchained or real ones

at least its something for the eyes b4 getting kidney + blind into -24

oh and everybody 2pc in 2 weeks

that issue is kinda over now. it's mainly a problem in the 1-2 months after raid comes out before catalyst because of RNG. in s2 everyone will at least have their 2p 4p while they work towards new tier

kind of weird that for one of the best looking glad mount since a long time the ladder is so dry

only topped by WoD Gronnlings dont @ me

modern grail

gross

craggy meteor

Do you guys prefer blademasters or warlords torment? I feel like warlords is definitely more damage on the all-in go but then I use both root breaks (avatar & bladestorm) in one go and am very vulnerable to roots from that point

steel trout
#

depends on what u vs

modern grail
#

and your cr

#

and your build

craggy meteor
#

I'm either playing spear/unhinged or roar/unhinged atm

#

and currently 1700 in SS. Aiming to go 1800 and above soon. Still not played that many games yet

modern grail
#

into 2 melee, non-dk then blademaster. blademaster is not as needed higher cr cause healers put dispel on their bars

#

personally i don't really use BM at all. the crit is valuable, and the forced BS can mess up some Go's

steel trout
#

i use blademaster into most non pet class game

modern grail
#

if you're confident you can cleave then yeah, but if there's a range then you're losing value pretty consistently

steel trout
#

no u get a unpeelable go even if its on 1 guy

modern grail
#

yeah. i guess it's mostly pref. i feel like the BS gives up some control, but with obvious benefits. @craggy meteor real answer is if you feel like the freedom from blademaster is better for you, it can't hurt

keep gloves

so dont keep gloves?

Isn't 4 set same stats as 424

It says upgrades to 424

keep your 424

i dont have 424 thats what im saying

Ah ok

my gloves are normal mode tier gloves

and i can buy the conquest gloves

fair tide

im saying your gloves that break 4 set

#

are 424 right?

obtuse coral

yes

#

the ones i can buy

fair tide
#

keep those

#

anything less than 411 isnt worth to get 4set

steel trout

i use 408 gloves and chest 😎

fair tide
#

you'll lose too much stat

steel trout

5% dammm

obtuse coral
#

its that or swap gloves to 408 world pvp gloves and buy the 424 chest to replace my 408 one

steel trout

408 set one?

better replace ur gloves then cuz chest has better stats

cinder thorn
#

Don't overthink it

Just get whatever you want you'll have all 424 soon

ya it doesnt really matter i was using 2 normal pieces until this week

and i cant tell a difference going from 2 normal pieces to 2 pvp pieces
