yea, no healers ive come across are keeping you up in caster lobbies
you just have to play guerrilla style
or oneshot in the opener
which i couldnt do because i had to work through 2 swaps every time
the new map is really well-designed, except for how aids engagement is for melee
casters just stand at the top of that fucking ledge and freecast on you
you cant charge them because you'll get brought to the bottom of the ledge
you cant run at them, because you'll be slowed and taken to 1/2 hp by the time you reach them
leap erry time
nah u just gotta send it, the cost for not doing so is too high
it's tricky, you gotta stand right on the lip the whole time basically
no healer in shuffle below like 2800 is keeping you alive there
and you're not going to outrace a demo lock and sp with burst
tbh on that map I usually just sit dstance entire game behind pillar
im making a video today actually
streaming idk
until I can come out and press big dam for 4 seconds, and then hide again
is it good or is it Hazzed tier?
whats hazzed
a few expacs ago no DKs were really making much content before waffles/flark
so there was a guy named Hazzed who didn't understand that he was not very good at the game, and kinda dumb if I'm entirely honest
who made a lot of it
Wasnt it ages ago?
I dunno if he still lives, but if he does you can @ him if u like and tell him I said he's poo poo
uhhhhh
nah he was still doing it at the start of SLands
I'm pretty sure
now I'm wondering if Reinhart got conscripted to go to the Ukraine
thats what i did
went 3/3
its just lame af
i remember that guy from wod 
i mean
New map would be amazing if you could go up the ramp from both sides
idk im just talking about how i play solo shuffle
the build i run
and what to do into a few certain com[s

and the casters in my lobby were being cunts about it too
they literaelly
wouldnt fucking move
for over a minute
theyd just stand their and spam cast into the open
the worst
part of playing in disc caster lobby
is that they never have more than 20 iq so they dont understand
what would you want to see in the video
they have to PUSH with me
honestly - I was a teacher as a profession
do basics, target calling, talents, positioning
why does Hazzed look like a young sirius black now
positioning is a little hard to explain
without recording gameplay
but i can try
im going to get gameplay ofc
i just have non recorded atm
đ¤Ł
Just explain how to play full caster lobbies :>
with 5 minute tangents for every little thing he talks about 
we love bicmex
And how to go in properly after pillar humping
Fast and hard is the only way
Thatâs what i struggle the most atm
I hug pillar so I donât die, but then my range dps just pisses himself in the open
If I go in, my heal goes afk and doesnât line any cc, so I die
Wholesome streamer playing funni spec
Non-biased
Y'all remember clip about survi doing unhealable dmg unhealable healing
as a 'WoW streamer' you need to record gameplay
Does streaming count as recording
but use war games, and if you can find copies of the maps/class icons that works as well
i mean
./content creator
super basically just reads patch notes, sometimes shares his thoughts and has loads of people interested because hes decent and friendly
ven doesnt even share his thoughts that often
bars kinda low
dpends on the class, who were you playin with?
for example, unholy dk, kinda shit at swapping a lot of the time
but it was the two arms
he was hitting into evasion
he is awesome
i had the dk <20%
nah, uncoordinated/random swaps can be very bad for unholy
Why swap when you can train :>
during burst, it ramps back up pretty quickly
since minions passive apply their fester anyway
it takes like ~6-8 gcds at times to get back to where you were
some of the time it wont matter much though
how
your opener is typically; big pet, blight, UA, Garg, Apoc
Garg can't be retargeted onto another target, and Apoc puts 5 stacks of wound on a target
its the same reason cloning DK dps targets is basically exclusively trolling
go #2 at 45 seconds is good for casual swaps though
you lose garg, that's the biggest part, losing 5 stacks of necrotic isnt a big deal if the arms is swapping with sharpen (which i was)
you can re-amp wounds decently quick with abom aoe autos
either way, its signficantly better than mindlessly slapping into ps or eva
25% absorb during 50% MS is huge, and we talking like 20-40k hits from the garg, plus the rolling wounds that keep building
nah, garg will kill someone through 40-50% DR, only immunities matter
or if they can get to like ~60-70%
tis why you wanna pick a target without immunities
I regularly kill people through dome/PS at ~2200-2400 on unholy dk
i mean, i had the target at <20% hp
and he refused to swap
he wouldnt have had to amp anything
well yeah context is everything
I'm just presenting a little bit about how I feel dk works
and I do think its a little bit oddball in that regard
i think you're overplaying a bit how hard it is for dk to swap, but yea its not ww or arms
not many clsses get randomly fucked by swapping during their burst/clone removing your dots
nah not overplaying it, like I said, it's just bad during big goes
during little goes swapping doesnt matter as much
because you're mostly focused on disease dam
the worst part about shuffle is that it does incentivise mindlessly slamming into one target without any thought or strategy
and the target you're on doesnt matter that much
working through a specific targets defensives is a pretty good strat tbh
I mean thats basically the fundamental win con of melee
i completely disagree, with how fast and intense the game is now, swapping targets semi-frequently is definitely a better move (generally) than tunneling
in organised 3s
oh yeah swapping from a target that's used defensives its good
but again its context
as arms? swap erry time
pretty much every melee excels at quick swaps
arms, ret, feral, enh, frost, dh, ww
assa rogue not great, uhdk not great
think I might have made a small change (since I uploaded it, I made this WA)
but I find this pretty useful at times
dk isnt hard to swap
its kinda like 5s, old irrelevant gamemode
btw
garg
use /petattack
in a macro
solves the problem
works with demo tyrant too
wasnt working when I tested it a couple of days ago
you sure?
yep
pets are frequently fucky/broken though
it did work previously I thought, and was annoyed that it wasn't
I'll recheck it again after queue pops
like I mentioned earlier, hard no, bad sometimes yes
i think with 2 physical dmg classes focusing dk is like a free win
I would train DK through its defensives as double war/war+melee
even with improved DS/Lichborne its going to die quickly
disarm during cds as well
extremely powerful
as a DK the mega cringe is when you're deadzoning a war during their burst
and the priest grips u giving him a free charge
Is it worth to hit a mage after he activated alter time?
literally spamming pet attack
it's noticibly on the wrong target
unless my macros cooked
I've had my pets do that on my dk alt before and I couldn't tell you why. Feel like ive seen Petkick say he has a macro or script or some shit to fix it
pets are always stupid/cooked in this game - they change the behavior/bugs mutliple times an xpac
nuked the macro to remove all the fancy stuff, giving it another shot
here's abomb not swapping with the basic macro
ahhh I see what theyve done, theyve made it smart target only
Yeah abom just does whatever the fuck he wants
so if you have done zero damage, you can choose a target, but once you have generated some 'threat' for it on a target, you functionally can't target swap with it

hi friends
hello mud
đ
bro have you overtaken pikaboo?
kinda annoys me he r1 on warr
lmao
I'm gonna pass mud boy in the shuff here soon
whats your cr?
I'm not close lol 2700
New to pvp -- when should I start playing rated? I'm fine with playing unrated for a month or so before I jump into it if that's recommended.
as soon as u can
no reason to wait. play rated for conq and higher honor gains. practice how you play
your cr will be booty for a while but that's how you gauge your skill
Get full honor gear and you could go immediately. You'll get practice and a good bit of conquest to start getting weapon/tier pieces
Okay, thanks. I do have full honor gear from unrated. I'll jump into it! Thanks, all.
The r1 title or like actual rank 1?
You'll notice pretty large power spikes between current state and after you get conquest weapon + tier set bonuses but the practice between now and then will be very helpful
title
Okay, thanks for the info. I'll definitely jump right into it.
Its top 0.1% right but blizzard leaderboard only shows top 5000. If you can find a source that shows you total ladder participants for arms you could math it out
so whats top 0.1%
like as arms im #91
so idk if that is r1 title worthy
hopefully is
Its not
I couldn't tell you unless I found a site to display total participation for arms
I cant use normal blizz ladder because it only shows top 5000. If we go by top 5000 you need rank 1-5 for a title lol
đ¤ˇââď¸
Is there a weakaura that autoaccepts shuffle q? I just got a 240 ping lobby cus of some dumbass frostmourne guy which made it unplayable since my lag tolerance is set to 200
What are you even trying to say?
WA wonât stop you from getting games with bad connections
Iâm saying 1 guy zoning in shouldnât punish the other 5 by making everyone else have dogshit ping
Server is based on who joins first
Guy was bragging about his sad
Ssd
anyways, anyone know if an addon/weakaura that does that exists? thanks in advance
Do I remember correctly that they are nerfing the arms tier set bonus in pvp? If so, is it still worth it to get tier?
That would be a bot then I guess
Many moons ago you could just run AHK pressing a macro over and over that would accept ques
But thats probably a good way to get yourself banned
ah
yeah just gonna alt tab to it faster i guess from my workpc
omg TIL that leatrix has safequeue inside of it
Someone know why i cant target/focus by left/right clicking on gladius? clicks is enabled
Itâs busted, been busted
Aight, guess ill just do some macro
Er at least I think so I couldnât get it to work either
my bugged un-upgradeable vault item has been fixed. honestly shocked
sArena works
Ty, will try it then
Currently on NA, the highest player in solo shuffle is 800 rating above the highest player in 2s and 500 rating higher than 3s.
Should Blizzard buff mmr in 2s/3s to keep rating between each bracket somewhat equal?
@Warcraft @WarcraftDevs
I'm thankful some r1 players are bringing up this issue
Mud real one
if not sarena then bicmex has a working version of gladius
They will nerf solo shuffle
XD
This hotfix changes makes no sense. They say they want to keep the damage same and reduce spike damage and they buff slam. All the damage they divert to slam is worthless. They should instead buff the bleed damage.
They buff slam because its a non-spiky filler
Also, any dmg buff is good
ofc
because %90 of the time you can't use slam due to uptime
yeap
unless you face a melee cleave
like you rarely use slam
still does less damage then MS and OP
its gomna have like 50% of attack powet without talents
Or don't, noone is forcing you to use it, its an option
But if you have NOTHING to press then its better to press slam than to press nothing at all
Every bit of dmg is valuable in arena
Especially further into the game
You can't prioritize slam over MS and OP which makes it just a rage dump but you never actually get to use it due to uptime even you want it to
check how many times you press slam each match
Even one cast is worth it
Its free dmg when everything else is on cooldown
Its not main spender
Its a rage dump
A filler ability
Its like frost strike, you press it when you can't press obliterate
I'm not arguing whether you should press it or not, I'm just saying the damage that is diverted from MS to Slam is not going to work as it should and it will be just a damage nerf to MS overall
Which looking at the state of arms is a good thing
Because to be fair, arms is too strong rn
I dont think so
didnt they buff overpower too
anyway it doesnt matter
They did
Yeah overpower was buffed
Stronger than dh?
If op buff alone can compensate the overall damage loss by MS yeah I agree and hopefully it will.
Alone, no, in comps, yes
Arms provides more to the team
And is tankier
Better to have by spec
3s 2400+
Arms is 2nd best melee, and assa was getting some small nerfs iirc
isn't this just how many ?
Yes
Numbers used to be different, very different
Demon hunters either fall or stay the same, warr just gets better with every patch xD
pretty flawed way to point out how good a spec is tho
@fickle forge yo what was that website with games played by spec?
Better than saying "dh wins 1v1 so its best class in the game" like some people here say lmao
ya
Xunamate
ye dh stonks down
Warrior games are higher than at any point in the expansion
I know y'all think you play underpowered class
With 0 ways to win
But that's copium
Warrior is strong
Last time it wasn't was bfa s4
Whole shadowlands it was S tier
Two seasons it arms, then fury
Its still good now, 2nd best melee for arena
With very easy rotation too
What are the people toughs after pvp nerfs coming
Yeah i like Warrior , i gonna build it now conquest gonna be uncapped
Assa S
Arms high A
what are the recommending guides for armâs learning rotation n shit?
it aint no pve my guy
nerf mortal strike am i right guys đ¤Ą
yes
Spam overpower..Line up your targets.. Macro button avatar, colossus smash, trinket, racial..yeet your spear..bladestorm..spam macro button cancelbladestorm, execute. VictoryđŞ
hello there. can s/b explain to me why this simple macro does not work?
/use [modifier:lalt][@player] Spear of Bastion
/use 14```
not able to use spear on alt...
Arms SKS build probably gonna be the play, Iâm having so much fun with it
Thereâs no nomodifier:alt
Itâs just [nomodifier] I believe
wdym?
the message above you answers it, there is no [nomod:lalt], you would just use it [nomod]
/use [nomod][@player] Spear of Bastion
or w/e your actual use case is you want
nope... same result
i feel like 90% of mod macro issues are having the actual bind somewhere else
like if that macro is on e having alt e bound to some random bind
oh... i just figured it out by myself. actually, it was bad syntax; this works perfectly fine:
/use [modifier:lalt,@player] Spear of Bastion
/use 14```
idk what you're doing wrong but this worked (i didn't want to bother swapping to spear spec but this testing worked
/use [nomodifier] Bladestorm
/use [modifier:lalt][@clear halo] Thunderous Roar
totally different case for 2 reasons. answered above
đ
for arms tier set is the helm the worst piece?
can someone gimme a quick priority/rotation for arms?
just to make sure i got it right
not including cds
mortal on cd, rend and slows up as much as possible, overpower to fill
nah
I thought just how much OP/EXE buffs your next MS through the passives is getting nerfed
mortal stroke
idk
i heard supatease say mortal strike effect is being nerfed
maybe he miss spoke
Is there an order I should get the tier set in? Have a forgestone and catalyst charge and Iâve got the infurious helm and boots not sure which two to make first
casters definitely dont need nerfs
buff caster slows
ms spikes to much!
give destro chrono shift
give earthshock a knockback effect
dont forget
lets make obliterate split players into 2 halfs each dealing a quarter of regular dmg
you mean the abilitie that goes through immunities? :>
Warrior nerfed again? đ¤Śââď¸
Sorry for this dumb question, just switched over to arms and started pvping yesterday. What is the significance of rage? Just to make sure you have enough to cast mortal strike, ignore pain, etc.? Seems like rage matters less in arms than fury which makes me think I'm maybe missing something.
Rage doesn't exist just press buttons
Haha, that's what I've been doing. Thanks
I press shiny buttons and people die
rogue passively decreasing haste and 27% healing reduction? balanced
warrior passive 25% healing reduction? nerf

why is the 2nd fury build not recommended
Spear ms build best for arms ?
Yes
wouldn't fury > arms after reset?
God I fucking love crusader
how do u figure
nerf to arms?
u srs rn
its not really a nerf as such
overpower does more damage
but you stack less on ms
and maaaaaaaaybe have a reason to use slam for whatever reason
Killing totems
fury > prot > arms
are the nerfts to arms really that detrimental. i didn't think it was too bad
The spec is done for, reroll now
no self sustain really
that's like half an arcane blast/arcane surge lul
Z-tier now

Arms dead unlucky
Outplayed
I have a few more from my favorite class from yesterday alt SS
i'm glad ms spikes too much
bleed build or spear?
yea
Isn't DB a stun? 
Is there a guide of how to get into pvp for an absolute noob?
Damn, nothing like 220K in a single global.
ye it's the infamous fdk+devoker
grip, grip, frost wyrm or db into ded
Frostfire breath duo
I have a problem with a macro i guess: When enemy rogue is arena1 and in stealth and i spam my @real raft1 stormbolt macro to stun him immediately when he comes out for example, but have arena2 in range, it storm bolts arena 2. What am i doing wrong?
#showtooltip
/cancelaura bladestorm
/cast [@real raft1] Storm Bolt
this is the macro
same with fear, i run in direction to the healer to fear him, spam the arena macro on him with fear, but when someone else is in range, it fears the other player
is arena1/2/3 only working when everyone is visible/targetable?
do you enchant ur pvp gear guys
are you sure you dragged macro on your spell bar?
wrecking throw against disc?
no 
ye
does adding "exist" to arena1 change anything?
screenshot your macro
the thing is, when i have arena2 in target and he's far away, and i press arena1-stun macro, it works fine.
what's your button for normal stun?
3
and macro stun?
ty will try
The bug people were having is: if your focus or arena123 were beyond 55 yd from you, it would just send the spell on your target, here's how to fix that.
Download the addon called AdvancedInterfaceOptions and go into the cvar browser and set these commands to 0
SoftTargetInteract0
SoftTargetEnemyRange 0
SoftTargetFriendRange 0
Macro examples:...
This may help as well
tysm
how about 2.4k SS dh, 1.2k every season before that?

Problem in the game? Bicmex already solved it
how is this a thing and why do not more ppl have this problem
i was getting crazy thinking my sausage fingers pressed wrong buttons or something
so now i can rewrite all my macros
watch the video
just change a few cvars
soo
any warriors here who needs 3v3 partner? at 1900cr
please dont make me play w dhs
no also need the macro correctly as it seems in the video
i do not have these lol. wondered why the likes of bahjeera had like 4 charge kleybinds
i haven't watched the video

if I got stun on target and focus target in one macro then I'm fucked
no fix for me
I will btw never understand why personal macros are still limited like that
Whats the go with solo shuffle at the moment for warriors, is it fury or arms?
ty again man this video (and this guy) is insane
arm
it depends
I assume just based on what classes you are vs'ing?
Spear
im on the roar hype frfr
in general i think that spear is better
but if you get little or no spear value then roar is quite nice
warlock for instance basically nullifies spear for themselves and their teammates
the okay ones anyways
dont think i've ever had a wasted roar tbh
spear has just bugged out and not gotten em even though it hit em
spear will get you CC'd more often too. roar isn't as noticeable which is nice
but spear also gets panic Walls
don't spear somebody that's on knock dr
roar with bleed builds in the arms tree? or just swap spear for roar?
link it
Noob myself here. Skill capped wow guides on YouTube seem pretty good.

Bicmex is pretty awesome
Is it worth using any tier over pvp gear if its high enough ilvl?
What do you mean by high enough ilvl
his fix works like a charme
Well pvp gear is higher ilvl in pvp for 2 of my pieces
How do you guys handle being the only melee in an all caster solo shuffle? Been getting dumpstered
hide
hide like a bitch lol legit
Pray to god you get a decent map
Camp dstance
Pmuch only play when you have mobility/bolt/intervene
Cry
pray to god there's a garbage can mage you can blow up
whats item prio as arms in pvp vers >?
crit all the crit all the time
Two options are play like a bitch and pillar hug outside of big damage, or go mongo in the opener and try and win early
might need a spear for that one
only way I ever win is pillar humping and just pumping as hard as I can when I have CDs then back to hiding
usin bleeed build and running for it lol
honestly besides the blood token and conquest gear I dontthink theres anything else
Conquest uncapped Feb 14.
what does that mean?
get the conquest gear
u can get unlimited conquest
trying to save up its kinda slow unless im doing the wrong thing
what, you can get infinite conquest and get all the gear?
yeah
gotta do the quests too
other than that do the trophy of strife quest and you can get the upgraded warmode gear and it's 421 i believe
are yall stacking haste or crit for arms ? i was thinking crit for spear build and haste for roar/bleed build
if you think 13 ilvl difference is rough try shadowlands. starter honor gear compared to upgrade conquest gear was insane
yeah iom getting butt fucked
what rating?
Just got 5 wins with rating unchanged because it placed me in a game 130 lower mmr than my cr
well quit losing and your mmr won't tank
Oh my bad, i'll just stop losing. Didn't think of that
kind of how the system works
Silly, should've started with that
I Jst started says 1400s
yeah just farm conquest if it's taking too long doing solo try rbg or something else
if you've got full honor and conq weapon and you still feel like a wet noodle it's not the gear
virus @lean burrow
why doesn't discord show gifs
mud sweeping strikes on enemies
POV: you think d-stance and IP will save you from ret/destro/etc
so will slam be back on action bar after reset
melee?
some mfs just rend that shit
I'll use slam if im in space jam
so its a net nerf then
Slam tier
our tier dont have synergy to OP though
And our spec is overtuned, so i'd say the nerf is deserved
Still minor
But slam does?
they're talking about smoothing out our burst damage in a burst heavy meta
We do both high burst and consistent dmg
But have you played it?
its a nerf to arms' top-end burst
which needed a nerf
with the upcoming warrior nerfs how good/bad do you think warrior will be compared to current state i dont pvp so i dont know how good they are atm
if you dont pvp, why do you care? 
I dont play warrior in pvp atm i play havoc and i was thinking of maybe playing warrior was just kinda curious where they would land after nerfs
Almost the same
ugh, maybe play one spec instead of rerolling to whatever is fotm

I'm currently looking to move my main from VDH to Arms warrior for pve since i started late i just didnt have gear and stuff and i made the mistake of picking a calss i didnt wanna play
well i've played warrior as my main since TBC i didnt know it was even fotm tbh
Never pick shit you dont enjoy
^^^
So true bestie
You'll have more success and fun on non-fotm that you'll find fun
I literally play fucking survival
thats why artji plays sv even when its a meme 
And was playing warrior in nathria
I only started VDH because i enjoy VDH tanking but i do like a key get off because i get bored
Ye but its fun
i respect sv mains
Surv do be very fun
I tried many specs
and im going on ym warrior for pve not pvp was just curious if it was good as a pvp spec i dont even know pvp meta etc this patch
sv is definitely the most unique spec in the game imo
is WW monk hard to play?
i will give bm this - it's a very smooth spec... boring, but smooth
No, but hard to excel
properly, its probably harder than a lot of melee
Cuz you need to live
Is fury good in pvp? or was that a meme last expac
Btw, once conq is uncapped I'll prolly farm gear on warri
đŤĄ
i finally got my sv to max and honour geared
i just wanna be able to counter assa rogues 
How do you feel about the 5% damage buff to surv Artji?
are you playing the infusion build?
I play every single build
bicmex jr
And they all do sub-optimal damage
Like, its fine cuz you still have crazy toolkit
And you can do magic with it
But by itself the kill pressure is a tiny bit low
you're playing KFC, right?
rip
And we just ended up playing when rusty or tired
And KFC is among the worst comps in the game
Much weaker than in shadowlands
Sadly
I'm thinking about swapping to a healing spec just for faster SS queues but i don't wanna restart the gearing process
Do surv hunters really not use any capstones?
?
As in, in survi tree?
You sometimes use aoe killshot
That's all
Even then its not super strong
Because it also targets trapped healer
Like, there's 2 talents that add a fuckton of dmg
But you dont use them because they break cc xD
3 talents*
at least the 1800 hunter set looks badass 
Freezing bolas, explosive shit, aoe killshog
i need to remember what trap DRs with, its any disorient effects, right?
its pretty cringe trying to get traps off w/o DRing in shuffle
wait, so does trap share dr with blind?
Iirc no
no
yeah that's why thug works so well
easy to force trink with traps on cd and then you can blind after, huge cc chain with stun->trap->blind->resap
trap is incap blind is disori
coolcool ty
Been qued for soloque for 30min now, it bugged or nah? 

This is why I keep arguing for a universal DR on CC but people always shit the bed and start screaming at the suggestion
Warriors screaming about that? I don't believe ya.
Rogue mains lurking in the shadows, for sure - but not warrior mains.
not enough healers online willing to suffer the verbal abuse
yea idk about that
it would absolutely destroy some comps and remove comp-compatibility
and getting/setting up kills at high rating for a lot classes would be impossible
most healers egocentric fucks, just remove them for the game
like interrupts, separate DR categories is integral to WoW PvPs identity
rather play 3v3 dps than have whiney crybaby healers playing
they think they're so entitled
But that doesn't have to go away
what healer hurt you @fair tide ?
my healer is a lovely gentleman
a universal DR would either invalidate separate DR categories, or would be irrelevant
Universal DR as in eventually you can just fucking play your class
Could be longer to activate than individual, could fall off more quickly
what scenario are you thinking of? Outside of rogues, there's not really a scenario I can think of that involves 1 or more players being indefinitely locked down/out
that isn't just essentially the healers fault
Guys! I got into a game!
pog
Holy shit, I forgot I was qued.
and I don't think it's controversial to say that rogue CC could use some minor changes
Maybe that's the issue, as I used to play with high glad healers and now play with 1200 randos
i think most people would agree that cc-creep has gotten out of hand this xpac
But not being able to play for 30 seconds while you're watching your teammates die
If infuriating
but universal DR is not a good solution for wow
and they'll still piss and moan about how the games going poorly because of someone else
'wHy iS uR dmG sO lWo??"
to be fair with the MMR changes I'm getting 1800 healers in my lobbies
which is hysterical
WHY AM I SITTING ROOTS HALF THE FUCKING GAME
you basically just hide behind a pillar, and pop out like the fucking boogie man
rogue shouldnt have a disarm, assa/sub shouldnt have gouge
dh shouldnt have a ranged, aoe, instant fear, aoe stun, ranged stun, ranged banish and ranged, aoe slows all at the same time
horrify effects need to break on damage
and blow someone up
i think those are some of the biggest offenders
warrior has the perfect amount of cc for a melee
I don't mind rogue having disarm, blind/sap I think are the main offenders
they could straight up lose blind
and the class would still be excellent
I'm actually okay with the idea of all CC getting nerfed
Blind is iconic, leave it alone/nerf it, don't remove it
i definitely have a problem with a rogue being able to kidney > disarm > eva/run > kidney 8sec later
nah, there's plenty of iconic shit that's broken or useless - enhancement and resto shaman for example
Yeah and that's a problem
like just because we've had a shit idea for 20 years, doesn't mean its not a shit idea
its completely ridic
especially because with how much damage rogues do now
and there are loads of unique and iconic abilities that have been banished to the shadowrealm
they probably donte ven need to evasion/run inbetween the kidney and disarm
remove spammable slows
ure the one having to playing defensive
you guys remember when dark sim was useable?
Hey guys! Im a scrub and looking for a quick response to a probably crappy icy veins build. Should i hit up "Regular PvP talents" or "Bleed focused PvP talents" for BGs?
they're important for the melee vs range positioning game
the slow system is very good in wow imo
the icy veins builds are good 
use murlok.io, find a top player for arms/fury
icy veins is toilet tier
i think all ranged, instant slows could be bumped to at least a 3sec CD
and tune down melee mobility
we should NOT have 30sec leap with speed boost and double charge
Icy Veins told me not to use sweeping strikes, I like Icy Veins.
this gets mentioned a LOT but its really quite overblown
yea being forced to RP walk and do nothing in a match is super fun
melee mobility is definitely out of hand
nerf dk mobility
rogue mobility probably a bit too much atm
double step is dumb
warrior needs a target so that really balances it out
well alright, you've gotta have a think about to what level you want the game balanced right?
yup ^^
blizzard solution to making disc better was 2 pain sups
most specs are melee, and generally speaking ranged classes outperform melee specs at higher levels of play across all content
how is warrior the class u think has problematic mobility lmao
ww and dh are literally impossible to shake off
rogues as well, tho its not necessarily because of their mobilty alone
i dont think this is true... ranged classes dont outperform melee generally in pvp, the reason they're more popular in raid is because blizz is too retarded to make anti-ranged mechanics, and m+ im pretty sure is mostly balanced
Feral just whistles in a corner, slowly fading into shadow.
they've got other weakness, mobility being one of their strengths
its not exclusively warrior
yea that too lmao
sure, but a spec being squishy but highly mobile and able to oneshot is not good design
pvp is massively more fun when specs are generally good at most things, and with small specialisations
instead of being completely inept at certain things and ridiculously overblown at others
season after season the melee S-Tier specs are always Rogue + best melee spec, and there are 2-3 ranged specs in the same box
just from a ratio perspective given the popularity and number of available specs
we should see something like 3:2 melee:range at each tier
but its usually 2:2 or 2:3 melee:range
so far this xpac, uhdk, rogue, arms, dh and feral have all been S tier
Agree, ranged warr build pls. Increase dmg of heroic throw stormbolt and wrecking/shattering with 100000%
as have arcane, multiple warlock specs, spriest, ele shaman
but right now - its Arcane, Destro, Ele, War, Rogue
is it worth going blacksmith to craft the Helm of Vengeance? or nah
get a blacksmith to craft it for you
U dont have to be bs to get it
even right now, arms, uhdk and rogue are still all S tier... feral and dh still extremely stronmg
Its very strong
Crafting order
I don't think unh is S tier atm
it's definitely A tier
Their dmg is
yea, didnt look into the new crafting stuff
its intimidating at first
their damage profile defines their strength, outside of that and their pre-damp survivability, the class has very little to offer
anyone try slam on the PTR? đ
even if its not, uhdk is still an incredibly strong A tier
with feral and dh
i definitely dont buy the narrative that melee is generally underpowered
Arms is not even S tier tbh, people a bit overhyped
If everyone started shieldswapping maybe S tier
arms is definitely S tier
it's not that melee are under powered, it's that ranged specs over perform at the higher tiers
Then why is assa like the only melee performing well in awc?
cope if u think that ms setup is complicated
I play both arms and assa rogue at 2400+
i do not give a fuck about AWC
I would say assa rogue is 10x better
it means jack shit in regards to balancing pvp
im a bad player. every setup is complicated
galachad
theres what, 3 mage specs, 3 warlock specs, 2 hunter specs, spriest, ele, evoker - and most of them are A/S tier
are u EU or NA?
Walking peak set bonus looks popular too lol
didn't say it was complicated
but it did take setup for big numbers
i play from the moon 
cant just dry ms and see 100+
whats the massively big brain setup for big mortals
Dont use it
you stack the damage increases and pop ur damage cds
Big MS is bait and bad to use
and press mortal
spear, double execute, double op, shapen+ms
Isn't AWC a team match where you go in with your picked teammates and strategies? Not sure how hyper-intense optimized play is indicative of overall balance.
whats there that people dont understand
fire is D tier, frost isnt that great outside of glacial spike memes, destro is a bit overrated imo, devoker shit outside of oneshots
It doesnât matter what is working incredibly well for the best players competing for cash prizes?
lol
thats 5gcds before you see a big number
no
If u want big burst go SKS build, OP has been buffed too much to not use inside ur burst window so the "setup" is not worth doing over having ur OPs hit for 100k inside burst window
this is cope
the applicable translation of what is good in tournament-style format and whats good on the ladder is minimal
remember how shit ret/warr was at AWC? that shit fucking farmed the ladder
fire is absolutely not D tier xd
When you go to the gym does it matter to you what Usain Bolt does to get ready before a race?
destro is high A, and could move to S tier tomorrow. Evoker is A tier, Frost is low A/B tier - but feels closer to A tier to me. Fire is C tier. Boomy seems C tier to me.
are people trying to compare pro play to ladder again
jesus what a retarded analogy
yes
awc will always be ruled by hyper-setup comps that require very, very high levels of execution
thats not the same as the ladder
yes
Tier lists are garbage anyway
Again with the noob question and thank you btw for answering these since i started, i am grateful! lol... so tier set pieces... are they raid only? Or can you get mythic level tier set pieces from pvp also?
it really doesnt even make sense xd
Oversimplifies too much when there is much nuance
evoker is 100% not A tier
its good in one comp
I've outran Usain Bolt before
are you talking the 3v3 ladder or SS?
if they were absolute, everyone would be at an agreement.
3s
facts
idgaf about shuffle for these convos
remember when cdew was saying dk was dead from the recent nerfs
still feels 100% good to me
sick tierlist man
Solo shuff is the new main ladder
im playing 3s 
actually talking about 3s and 'spec' tiers is nonsense
Shuffle is the real place to find out if something is balanced, or if someone is good, or just good friends.
dead = not SS tier anymore
3s is for grognards clasping for relevancy
im at 0cr on fury and I've been in queue for an hour D:
comps have tiers in 3s, specs don't really
you can definitely still rank specs by tier in 3s
half the fucking good comps are some shit dps spec that enables godmode in anther spec
thats also not true at all, most of the good comps are S tier specs (ele, assa, sp etc) slapped together
bro shuffle is just scuffed 3's
assa is aids
shuffle is 3s from wish
makes me want to go iron dwarf
this will change significantly as the players get their shit together
doubt
biiig doubt

shuffle doesnt reward/incentivise the same level of coordination or strategy as 3s does
shuffle is just rolling the dice
it doesnt reward good target-selection in the same way, because your team will be better coordinated tunneling one target etc
this man is speaking facts here
you either get a good lobby, or a shit one
will they ever make it so that PvP players dont have to do raid content to compete for top of ladders -.-
it absolutely can - it's just significantly less accessible
shuffle doesnt give a cool mount either
I think shuffle was a bad idea. Which I can say because I didnt ask for it :)
big agreed
