which is 99% of games

topaz tulip
#

Do you use warbringer a lot? I've loved it but it's starting to feel like a crutch wasting utility

mild thunder
#

in shuffle its nice

#

barely get the chance in 3s

muted surge
#

and whats your cue to pop banner ?

mild thunder
#

there's almost always something more mandatory ahead of it

muted surge
#

i feel like i waste it a lot

#

im currently trying to use it when rogue pops and / or i see the lock / mage casting on my heal that cant line

#

but someone just gloables in and it has no impact

topaz tulip
#

Ha. I simmed it. -4k dps. What the fuck keks

mild thunder
#

so if a hunter is stun > trapping, a rogue is blind > sapping etc

#

it can also be decent to just throw down in the opener of a meleefest

#

as long as it's not in a super easy spot to tab and kill

muted surge
#

i see, thanks :>

mild thunder
#

edward snowden reference... weird

topaz tulip
# warm portal Warbringer always BANG

I know I don't want to give it up but I feel like i'm starting to need to. Too many close calls on cc because of exactly what gala is talking about, having close calls on kills that would have happened if I got mortal wound out of bs before sks, movement down but i'd have an extra charge if I could exe. All options for why I just barely missed that kill

mild thunder
#

warbringer is really, really nice into stuff that you're going to be charging at a lot, like hunters, locks etc

muted surge
#

sks clowning

mild thunder
#

but it's still a very low prio talent

#

it's also incredibly fun watching hunters turtle <10% and then sniping them with warbringer

muted surge
#

warbringer goes through turtle ?

mild thunder
#

yup

wheat jay
#

So does sweeping strikes

#

If you cleave pet they die xD

#

It goes through tranq too

mild thunder
#

hmm, i didnt know that

#

but makes sense since blade flurry does the same

muted surge
#

disc nerfs are here

frank knoll
#

Thank god

#

Wait that doesn’t read like a nerf

muted surge
mild thunder
#

that's neither a nerf nor is it remotely impactful for pvp

muted surge
#

yes

#

thats the joke

wheat jay
#

But sweeping does

muted surge
#

obli does according to mes

wheat jay
#

There's a pet and hunter

muted surge
#

i just never see any rdruids to test it :>

wheat jay
#

Hunter in turtle

#

You use your shit to sweep

#

Swept attacks go through turtle and damage hunter

muted surge
#

yes more knockbacks for heals

wheat jay
#

Balance is dogshit so id say its faire

#

Its a target dummy that does mediocre at best damage

muted surge
#

but those effects are so unfun to play against as a heal

topaz tulip
#

Bleeds already applied also ignore turtle

muted surge
#

every fucking range has a dispell protection

mild thunder
#

idk having gimmicks like that in the game just isnt fun imo

wheat jay
#

Would you rather it be an ability from them?

mild thunder
#

id rather boomy not exist okayge

muted surge
#

buff its damange

wheat jay
#

Knockback

mild thunder
#

they already have a knockback kek

wheat jay
#

Well

wheat jay
#

That's another knockback xd

#

Everyone wishes for some class to cease to exist

#

Most wish for warr to be removed xD

mild thunder
#

i wish for every non-warrior class to cease to exist

topaz tulip
#

I hate warlocks as a class, but worst spec hands down goes to boomy

muted surge
#

ngl im fine with every class

#

except fucking ele

#

they are not fun to play agianst

mild thunder
#

i think evoker was just a poor addition

topaz tulip
mild thunder
#

we didnt need a new spec

#

and they dont spice up the meta in any interesting way

muted surge
#

they bring more roots :D

#

roots are fun

wheat jay
#

At least druids cast their skills

#

Warlocks too

#

Elementals don't

mild thunder
#

warlocks barely cast

#

dont kid yourself

wheat jay
#

Everything is instant

#

They do lol

topaz tulip
# muted surge except fucking ele

Snagged some info from one on why they fucking hurt so much sometimes. It's honestly fucking dumb, but at least I know how to avoid it now

mild thunder
#

any good destro lock has conflagrate and shadowburn as their top dmg these days

wheat jay
#

Destro casts a lot, demo casts a lot

topaz tulip
#

and maybe i'll roll one to do it myself lol

mild thunder
#

aff casts

wheat jay
#

Affli is affli

warm portal
mild thunder
#

demo casts, but they dont rely on it as heavily as most casters

muted surge
#

isnt the whole destro burst instant

#

and protected chaos bolt

sharp meteor
wheat jay
#

Still can stun it

muted surge
#

but i dont understand the lock anymore, so idk

wheat jay
#

So there's counterplay

#

Wheres counterplay to elemental dmg that's instant

#

At all times

topaz tulip
wheat jay
#

And instant % dmg channeled stun

mild thunder
#

the only counterplay to ele dmg is dispelling

#

except they have dispel protectors

wheat jay
#

And it does dmg to you

mild thunder
#

because game design

wheat jay
#

And they reapply it with nothing

#

Cuz it spreads

mild thunder
#

i dont think flame shock spread unless they're wasting big stuff on it

topaz tulip
muted surge
#

why is fireshock top dps for ele btw

#

its a dot

#

and they are casters :(

mild thunder
#

because they multi-dot and have very high uptime

#

multi-dotting helps them funnel damage

muted surge
#

on high elo

warm portal
#

Haste based with near 100% uptime go brrrrrrrrrrttttt

muted surge
#

is it still top dmg?

wheat jay
#

Also, LoS, cast stormkeeper, profit?

jagged cedar
#

So I have 4pc but from m+ and raid pieces. Is it better to go full honor set at first and then wait for conquest gear to turn into tier ? Or should I leave the 4 pc on and the rest honor gear to start

mild thunder
#

depends on ilvl

jagged cedar
#

It’s like 390 and 400 ish. Nothing special

mild thunder
#

yea i wouldnt worry about it

#

408 > 390 tier pieces

#

imo

jagged cedar
#

Word. Thanks

mild thunder
#

dude

#

why does the transmog channel

#

actually have the ugliest fucking mogs in the game

muted surge
#

You made me look

#

Now my eyes hurt :<

mild thunder
#

i tried my best not to be mean

sharp meteor
#

which means trying to pair some tbc ass piece with like a legion one

#

and it just looks like

#

an npc some intern whipped up in 20 seconds

mild thunder
#

the thing is, non-matching sets are almost always the best

#

but these people are fucking blind

sharp meteor
#

like take a set u like, change char to match it, matching wep, maybe swap out 1 piece

#

ok ur good

mild thunder
#

and match shit that just shouldnt

topaz tulip
mild thunder
#

then you would have 1pc

#

and despite finding the one piece, you would not get a set bonus

topaz tulip
#

Wat no

#

after catalyst today I'll have 3

#

currently on 2, gotta cat my gloves

mild thunder
#

for 4pc, eh

#

idk its not super impactful

#

but losing ilvl on one piece isnt a big deal either

topaz tulip
#

522 vers/264 haste vs 501 haste/201 vers

muted surge
#

I hardly see anything that’s better than just a full set

#

Alone that older items have shit resolution

drifting jacinth
#

rift*

topaz tulip
#

basically would lose 2% verse for a gain of 1% haste. feel like 5% damage increase is worth that much yeah?

mild thunder
muted surge
#

Pls don’t post the dwarf that gets posted every second day

mild thunder
#

no mine is actually good

#

not that other retard one

muted surge
#

I don’t even know if it’s the same person

drifting jacinth
#

arms tier this xpac is like last xpac

muted surge
#

Or if everyone tries the same mog

drifting jacinth
#

just more dam

mild thunder
drifting jacinth
#

fury tier in SL actually changed the specs playstyle

mild thunder
#

by making it press only one button

#

that's not a good thing

drifting jacinth
#

p much shit without it

#

they could fix that if fury's sustain wasnt a joke

mild thunder
#

they've already specified that this season's tier bonuses are intentionally mild so that it didnt fw talent tuning

muted surge
topaz tulip
#

And yet talent tuning is still kinda shit

drifting jacinth
#

I miss gavel jaithys

muted surge
#

Without the Tier some classes would be dumpster tier

#

Including arms in pve

#

Think they still went over board with the sets

topaz tulip
#

with the tier one spec is dumpster tier

mild thunder
#

arms tier is a nothingburger in pve wym keks

drifting jacinth
#

just slightly more dam

mild thunder
#

we're good in pve now because of the talent changes, nothing to do with tier set

topaz tulip
#

I meant fury

muted surge
#

The tier gives us 18? % dmg

drifting jacinth
#

fury's tier is a disgrace

muted surge
#

While others got like 5-10

mild thunder
#

i don't think that's correct

drifting jacinth
#

I legit question how much they playtest the spec

mild thunder
tribal nimbus
#

that feeling when a healer declines a ss match

muted surge
#

Ye actually just 10

#

But surv is 16 :<

mild thunder
#

survival's tier set is also exclusive to single-target

#

and how many raid fights are exclusively single-target? one

muted surge
#

Brood

drifting jacinth
#

ha

muted surge
#

Eranog depending on comp

drifting jacinth
#

Id say sennarth is the only other one

muted surge
#

Serrath only st matters

mild thunder
#

some guy in #transmog literally just posted a set right after mine that reuses half my set weird

muted surge
#

Except sweeping :>

mild thunder
#

it was not just the chest

#

it was the shirt, chest, bracers and belt

#

he also copied my hidden helmet smh

drifting jacinth
#

if yo mog aint shirtless it aint shit

topaz tulip
# mild thunder and how many raid fights are exclusively single-target? one

I mean eranog is basically st. Depending on how your raid does the fight you can basically do brood st whole time. terros. Sennarth cuz who gives a shit about the baby spiders. Dathea st is fine considering how many classes have built in cleave anyway. Add intermissions on kurog can also be treated as st if you'd get more dam out of it than two. So really, it's just one fight that CAN'T use a st exclusive build, cuz raz has too many minions

gentle horizon
#

why cant my lv50s que for timewalking? :/

topaz tulip
drifting jacinth
#

Cutting Edge looks ez to get rn

fair tide
#

wtf : /

rotund trellis
#

I get the same error, apparently it's a bug

topaz tulip
#

Like 8 talents specifically for glaives

rotund trellis
#

really??

sharp meteor
#

people look at a 1m dmg hit and ask if it's real

drifting jacinth
#

yall know if mythic crossrealm works rn?

topaz tulip
# rotund trellis really??

Probably exaggerating but yeah. Specifically I know there's one to double the number of glaives thrown, then two to increase their damage, one that increases the damage all abilities do to someone hit by a glaive, and one to turn all damage elements to chaos

hollow ore
#

Demon from passive takes 1m from glaive

#

Thus appearing overstated

#

Dont spread misinformation

simple rock
#

details used to filter now it doesn't

#

should be fixed next update

topaz tulip
#

Oh i took the screenshot as damage overall

#

I'm not spreading misinformation? Go read the talents, it's definitely the build they use

rotund trellis
#

how?

#

I'm talking open world pvp

#

he one shots me, I'm 421 ilvl

stark gulch
#

so do the pvp tier sets not always get versatility? got pvp gauntlets that are tier in vault but no vers

topaz tulip
#

the pvp tier is the pve stats just scales to 424

stark gulch
#

ahhhh gotcha. well. set bonus still great but no vers oh well

spice hornet
# fair tide

something changed where their glaive demon dmg is now being tracked

mild thunder
#

That’s demon damage bro

earnest wharf
#

for sockets, we go Vers/crit, or Vers/stam?

spice hornet
#

only mained warr all these years, leveled a destro and get 2500 in shuffle 1 day /played lol spec is dumb

drifting jacinth
#

stam dont do dam

earnest wharf
#

cool, going vers/crit then lol

frank knoll
#

There’s Destros who’ve got years played and can’t do that cause “warrior OP :’(“

rotund trellis
#

I have a newfound hate for lemental shamans

#

"newfound" I mean I hated them already from SS, but in world pvp they're jut disgusting

spice hornet
#

yeah ele was giving me depression on my warr

frank knoll
#

They are one of those that will just randomly kill you

hazy isle
#

casters told me destro is still bad tho

#

i think i hate frost mage the most out of all of them

drifting jacinth
#

destro definitely aint bad

frank knoll
#

Destro is giga

drifting jacinth
#

Destro's got like 3 schools of magic

frank knoll
#

Well two

#

Can’t get kicked on chaos

#

Ur locked out of everything if u do

#

Well, casters complain about melee, melee complains about casters, everyone hates hunters. That’s how I know PvP is balanced 🙂

sleek vine
#

hi all, Recommended Haste % for Arms? Im sitting Crit 24%, Haste 12% vers 26%. Also should i drop some versa for more crit?

When you’ve got the skyhold PvP channel

hazy isle
#

no one wants to q, every 1 shuffling

sharp meteor
#

i mean no reason to q now for most peeps

#

glad is rly hard and everything else is free in shuff

quick carbon
#

feelsgood to see roar take over boys

sharp meteor
#

does it tho lmao

spice hornet
#

I feel like people go roar when they’re just tired of playing/dealing with spear

#

Just further into zug mode with roar

hazy isle
#

spear is prob better tho in 3s no?

quick carbon
#

i think spears still good

#

its prob rlly comp dependant

#

like vs rmx or ww u prob go spear

#

but alot of warriors on ladder r roar rn

sharp meteor
#

ya spear too much counterplay

#

just go roar and slam dam

quick carbon
#

i wonder if it means

#

blunt inst

#

is shit now too

#

cuz u prob just go waarbreaker

#

for max aoe bleed

mild thunder
#

unless you're desperate for pad

mild thunder
#

interesting

drifting jacinth
#

hmm

#

I mean how many in the elite ladder are alts

sharp meteor
#

Ah, ye. There it is.

#

2100-2200 3s right now is actually like

#

so brutal

high star
#

always is

#

primo booster MMR too

sharp meteor
#

idk who these gamer dads are who buy duelist 3s

#

i see them every season

#

most of the ones who try to buy glad have theirs removed too keks

quick carbon
#

ive been playing with roar but with old spear build talents

#

it feels nice

bright stream
quick carbon
#

more fun than spear

bright stream
#

I've known multiple 'end of season' glads/duelists that dropped 1+mil to play with someone for an afternoon

#

or two

drifting jacinth
#

1m is chump change

bright stream
sharp meteor
#

hurts 2v2 and 3v3 too much if 2400 shuffle is literally

#

free

bright stream
# drifting jacinth 1m is chump change

eh I mean it depends on what you're doing in the game, 1mil is like, enough to do whatever you want with for an expac, or buy most things immediately at launch for a single character - it's not a small amount of gold for playing with someone you know for ~5-8 hours

sharp meteor
#

nah most people playing with peeps who only

#

play for money

#

i love whispering and asking how long the ban was

#

when their mount was removed from their collection

#

and if they got a refund

drifting jacinth
#

1mil is pretty hard to make if you dont have 2 mil

sharp meteor
#

i made like 2.2m in a week just selling sl leggos a few weeks ago

#

with like 50k starter gold

drifting jacinth
#

fuck I need to hop on that shit

bright stream
drifting jacinth
#

Im a top g blacksmith

bright stream
#

but that's probably a combination of things

sharp meteor
#

kind of lost interest cos everybody undercuts massively now

#

profit margins in shambles

bright stream
#

and also worth noting that its gonna get easier as the season moves forward

drifting jacinth
#

yea undercutting is the dumbest fucking thing ever with the new system

#

both parties lose

bright stream
#

like 2400 on DH in the first few weeks? absolutely free, RN as a spec like - I dunno spriest? gonna be pretty similar I think

#

the biggest dif I think is absolutely just being able to play without having to LFG boss and find people that you gel with/aren't massive ego lords

drifting jacinth
#

the best specs to play are the A tier specs

bright stream
#

so you got a lot of people gatekept by LFG who can suddenly get more done

#

and people parrot the stupid shit that SS doesn't require coordination, or that it is all Zug, but that's not really true at all. It's just much harder to coordinate precisely, and as people play it more - addons/knowledge on how to do that will improve

sharp meteor
#

was gearing my alt and just

#

walking at somebody and pressed 123 to

#

2400 shuffle

#

felt like actually 1700 or something

#

more of an inflated meme than unchained

#

will be cool to see people pushing titles tho

simple rock
#

shuff is a big meme for serious players yea but kinda saved the game in terms of participation

#

now they just have to incentivize 2s and 3s somehow

drifting jacinth
#

even if unchained was a meme the amount of people that have it is less than 1%

simple rock
#

1% of the whole playerbase?

drifting jacinth
#

yea

simple rock
#

that's a fuck ton lol

drifting jacinth
#

nobody fuckin pvps lol

simple rock
#

I read something like less than 30% has challenger

#

of the active playerbase

#

we are a minigame boys

drifting jacinth
#

who tf would want to learn all of their class abilities

#

let alone other classes

#

also takes time away from pve

jagged cedar
#

Is endless ashran a good farm for honor ?

drifting jacinth
#

ya

#

epic bgs are loaded in general

jagged cedar
mild thunder
#

whats the max number of letters for a name

earnest wharf
#

if you also need some conquest at all, rbg's is a better ratio of time spent to resources earned honor + conquest

they even got the shit eating grin

feel like its still gonna be quite hard season for glad

stark agate
#

Gnome warrior shouts are earrape I despise them

ebon pivot
#

so I'm dumb and too outta the loop arena wise, what do they mean by the inflation thing?

steel trout
#

ur mmr gets inflated by 20 each week from now

ebon pivot
#

woof

steel trout
#

but i mean realistically how much of the season is left, its gonna be like 100-200? mmr in total

ebon pivot
#

yeah

drifting jacinth
#

260 max

#

shuffle players might start invading 3's

#

which would definitely help

ebon pivot
#

starting to feel a good groove from sks build

#

hopefully that means i can keep on the up and get 1800 before season end lol

full quiver
#

Well apparently if everyone played 3s and not shuffle we would all be glad

#

Holinka said same inflation is in both game types

#

Seems sus

mild venture
#

No it makes a ton of sense, MMR requires a larger pool to have higher ratings. The higher the highest rating, the more players there are.
The reason it seems so much higher is that the numbers in Arena were very small before. 2400 in a pool of 1000 vs 3400 in a pool of 100,000. (not saying the difference was ^2, just exampling)

#

For Sharpen Blade is it possible to tell the difference between MS with and without on a target? Wondering for making a WA to show when Sharpen is on a target if I need to track my buff use, or if I can track it on the target?
Does Sweeping Strikes with Sharpen Blade hit one or more targets?

stable siren

question fellow pvp gamers, how stinky would runing tclap with the rend build be?

haha ferals are still doing disgusting dmg if they can cleave

#

their demise was greatly exaggerated

mild thunder
#

no one that is actually good at feral and wasnt just a fotm player thought feral was going to be bad

#

they still have very, very good ST and cleave, high mobility, good cc, lots of stuns, good switch potential, decently tanky etc

simple rock
#

played a shuff at 3k mmr where the feral was doing pre nerf lvls of dmg it was insane

#

kept saying we should hit the feral more to reduce pressure but no one listened

I know it's just the normal struggle of being a war, but the last couple of days I've really been struggling in lobbies full of casters. Maybe there's an udk. Maybe there's a survival. But with 4 or 5/6 people throwing spells to blow me up I'm caving even with every protection possible. I bounce, hit a wall, bounce, hit a wall, get rooted for 5 years, then die. What do yall do to get through this (besides die)?

kinda, we really wanna disrupt enemy burst when its on our allies and pull enemies 2 our side of the map

but yeah double casters deff wanna pick the least mobile target and sit

live the zug zug life and tunnel a healer if u have 2 and pray that the 2 other ranged our 2 busy loading ur ass up like its vallentines day 2 not throw cc on the healer

Leap is ur def cd vs casters

We need over watch back

yeah against casters your lackluster mobility is your best bet, need 2 line as much burst as u can and make sure ur not getting dragged beind los and blown up

steel trout
#

Better go destro

frank knoll
#

I just vs Boomy and frost mage

#

No idea how I went 4/2 that game.

steel trout
#

If u train healer vs double caster u will lose unless u can kill healer in opener

#

Especially on low cr

frank knoll
#

What if it’s boomy/Destro
Who do you go

#

I feel like a good boomy will never die

muted surge

Boomy seems squishy and loses a lot of pressure when forced into bear

slender lion
#

Tbf tho vs ele/destro. Your fucked

steel trout
#

Yea boomie dies

frank knoll
#

If they suck yeah

slender lion
#

You can focus one. But the other then free casts and they can both hit very fucking hard

frank knoll

Sometimes I guess you just gotta accept that you’re gonna be a really shitty lobby

limber relic
agile aspen

correct decision if you were waiting to push

limber relic

Yeah and ive been lucky with vault first 4 weeks except first week

#

Got chest+legs+shoulders week 2, 3, 4 all tier set. By then i was almost full epic geared with combination of wpvp gear and conq gear

And the crafted gear

So no real inflation this season im guessing?

if u get to 2.1k before 10.7 you'll get glad

10.7 has nothing to do with inflation

Not that I think it's a bad thing. Just personal opinion of self

still cant use the socket thing on my neck reee

anyone know a fix for this? putting on action bars didnt do shit

buy a new neck

is that really the only way lol

Yea

sheesh ok i guess i can buy conq medallion next week lmao

conq uncapped anyway

mild thunder

just buy a tiered medallion setting from ah

high star
#

cant use it on my crit neck

#

was able to socket my mastery neck i got like first week of DF from vault but

#

for some reason I can't use the enchant on my crit neck?

mild thunder
#

what's the error message?

high star
#

that item cannot be modified

#

what am i missing here lmao am i just hard r or what

sharp meteor
#

erm no a few pieces broke after patch

#

might have to rebuy if u can't socket it

pearl bane
#

nah there were bugs but u just need to rebuy

high star
#

ok word that makes sense i guess

#

i mean not really

#

but makes sense why i cant socket XD

topaz tulip
# drifting jacinth always aim higher

Obvi. Glad is the goal. But I like to treat goals like ladders so I can feel accomplished along the way. As of now, I'm hard stuck at c2, and I just want my transmog.

this 2.6 rating inflation per day got me hard 😈

Is there a limit on the number of sockets you can add to an item through tokens of merit?

thats what i mean

#

its daily increase not weekly

sage raptor
#

No shit?

#

Interesting

mild thunder
steel trout
#

its 20 rating inflation per week

#

but it goes up daily

#

so 20/7 per day

#

ygm fam

mild thunder
#

just confused where it specifies that it's daily

steel trout
#

ehm they said it a while ago that inflation is a daily thing

#

i can try find it

mild thunder

shy aurora
#

Guys if i get a neck in vault that had a gem slot, can i then add 3 more? Like you usually can

steel trout
sage raptor
#

Shouldn't you be looking for the sauce???

#

Mhm

steel trout
#

outcome is the same eitherway

true grove
#

is there an addon helping with spell reflect? I struggle sometimes with understanding if I'm the target of a spell that I would like to reflect

#

like something that flashes if X,Y,Z spell is being cast by any arena player with myself as the target

#

(might be even just a weakaura)

drifting jacinth
#

prolly weakaura

true grove
#

it's a nice time to reflect chaos bolts

#

and glacial spikes

drifting jacinth
#

yea then u get double conflagged right after

topaz tulip
#

Is full build just all the glad slots less boots/helm, or do you still try to prioritize stats by keeping a db piece or two?

drifting jacinth
#

doubt you'd notice the difference between the two tbh

topaz tulip

inner skiff
#

What's this inflation y'all are talking about?

gusty wing
#

theres a blue post

#

but its mmr inflation at 20 a week

inner skiff
#

huh.... so your MMR goes up by 20 per week even without you doing anything? That seems.... backwards.

drifting jacinth
#

Gets us closer to glad bruther

inner skiff
#

yeah. Especially my ass playing Fury and being bad. XD I'll take the help. Just confused. XD

gusty wing
#

Originally it was 34 but blizzard deemed it too high, people would raise rating at a sonic rate

drifting jacinth
#

Wouldn’t mind that

wheat jay
#

And now its 20 and people dont raise rating at all 2 months into expansion xD

#

Or is it 3 now?

drifting jacinth
#

I’d say 50 keks

wheat jay
#

Shuffle be like

#

Counting mmr

gusty wing
#

seriously tho

#

its 20

#

mmr

#

a week

drifting jacinth
#

Better get to 2.1k quick

wheat jay
#

Haha

gusty wing
#

CR is a mess this season

#

2400 is a joke for transmog etc but 2400cr for 3v3 is insanely hard for the mount

drifting jacinth
#

Mfs be havin downfalls in cr

gusty wing
#

best season ever for transmog, worse season for mount

drifting jacinth
#

I mean anything’s better than the old glad system

#

Imagine mop pvp

limber relic

#

man. Doing solo shuffle and going 3/3 because there's a rogue who goes squish and gets deleted 6 times back to back no matter who's team he's on. +8 rating. What do you even do there? lol

muted surge
#

Compensate for their weakness by displaying exceptional skill

inner skiff
#

We'd have had a better chance of winning if they just stayed in stealth until something was sub 20% for execute range. lmao

limber relic
#

Its such a shitshow

inner skiff
#

Really is. But when it's 5:30 am and I've only got like 30 minutes, I can get 2-3 of them in while everyone I know is asleep.

#

also helps me learn what's scary etc given I'm still fairly new to pvp.

limber relic
#

Yeah i wna Q sometimes when ive got nothing else to do but i end up promising myself never to do it again😂

inner skiff
#

XD

leaden lake
#

I keep doing that just because I want the mog and have nobody to play with

#

and it's the first season ever when I do pvp

inner skiff
#

I've done some pvp in the past. but not for years. And not as a warrior. So it only helps in passing.

limber relic
#

Ive got my 50 wins so i really dont need to do more and got nothing to lose but ive never wanted punch my monitor more than when i play a solo shuffle

#

😂

leaden lake
#

I have trouble staying at 1200 atm

#

even if I do top damage I usually get 3/6

inner skiff
#

I haven't lost rating yet, I just keep going 3/3 and getting like, +8. so it's taking me forever to get anywhere.

leaden lake
#

so it's either someone gets melted within 10 seconds with me having 700-800k dmg when others have 100 or it's a drag and we usually lose

#

unless we survive until next burst window

true grove
#

Eventually you should be experienced enough to counter the weaker players and win even if they are with you

#

The better heal, the worst dps and you as a good dps should be able to win

leaden lake
#

yeah, I rarely die myself

#

and whenever I see someone getting focused I try to use intervene on them

I have a question about racials, I know it only matters to the top 1% of players with the highest rating but… I main an orc warrior for the stun reduction and the blood fury but was actually thinking about blood elf and arcane torrent purge.
Anyone who transitioned for one race to another or viceversa and noticed any improvement in their quality of life/playstyle?

I'm not sure if I'd go back to arms for that, or just want to swing TWO tree trunks.

torpid bolt
#

Arms is still performing better than fury?

elfin surge
inner skiff
#

Arms has better burst, better heal cut, and survives into dampening better.

#

and better cleave.

#

I just play Fury because Zug Zug and it makes my soul happy.

torpid bolt

Ok sure, but why is Arcane Torrent good , i never use it in pvp

torpid bolt
#

Lol dispel , I'm so old tough it was justo silence

#

What it can dispel , can dispel thunderous Roar?

#

Legit noob question

elfin surge
#

Blood elf is an aoe magic dispel, purge. @torpid bolt

#

Only real good use is to try to purge a bop.

sage raptor
#

Keyword is try

#

I keep expirementing with what I am told here but things never work

torpid bolt

So it's rng, dont sound that good now

sage raptor

Like freedom out of spear

And purging bop

boreal veldt

Outlaw at least has gun

spare basalt
#

its why all top solo shuff are fucking arms as fury

boreal veldt
#

As Arms I've been running Roar+Bleeds and Spear+Exploiter, both are good

#

1min Roar lines up with trinket so thats nice too

frank knoll
#

I get most of my wins in shuffle with spear

boreal veldt
#

I switch between em, had a rough solo yesterday with lock,mage,spriest in rotation. Definitely not a bleed game, went spear.

frank knoll
#

Same, faced boomy, frost mage and another warrior

#

Boomy topping the meters no problem

#

Equal skill wouldve had boomy as kill target but the mage was weaker and so was the other warrior

limber relic

best healer for thundercleave?

spice hornet
limber relic
#

🤔

#

rdru bis healer for anything?

obtuse coral
#

ive swapped to the bleed build and im liking it a lot more but my gear is mostly the crit pieces, do you think it would be more worth to swap the crit items like the neck to the haste one or to buy the wep?

#

my current wep is the 421 world pvp one

#

so its 3 ilvl on wep vs more haste on gear

limber relic
#

there is no conq cap

obtuse coral
#

that doesnt mean i dont want to prio biggest upgrades first

boreal veldt
#

I mean you don't need too much more haste since you roar on cs and you'll get the 10% haste off that

obtuse coral
#

i mean this is my stats rn

#

i guess its not actually even that much haste im missing out on

boreal veldt
#

yeah in my opinion that looks real good

hollow ore
#

stat balance is pixel

obtuse coral
#

but i am also rocking this which i do want to change to the haste one with haste gems

earnest wharf
#

conquest is uncapped though so ur gonna eventually have a bunch extra to waste, just not priority this very second

#

within the next week or so, pretty much all conquest gear should be almost disposable, just a minor cost for gems, enchants, etc.

frank knoll
#

Is it ever okay to hit someone when they have thorns on them

grand scaffold

s2 thorns was not that bad

it got not so bad over time

#

prob gonna be the same here

frank knoll
#

I’ve done it, like if the other target has pain sup on it it or something

#

But maybe it’s a better idea in that scenario to hit the healer?

grand scaffold
#

swap on pain sup

#

dont bother hitting into it tbh

#

hard to kill through

#

but if they at like 20% dumb idea to swap

how bad is it if I just only got 2set

not bad
