You millennial leftists who never lived one day under nuclear threat can now reflect upon your woke sky. You made quite a non-binary fuss to save the world from intercontinental ballistic tweets.

real, elected US representative btw gladge

woeful solstice
#

its all a clown show

mild thunder
#

US politics is a fever dream

woeful solstice
#

majority of the planet is ran by geriatric dorks who can barely use a smartphone

#

upper age limit should be norm

#

for elected positions

mild thunder
#

but then POTUS Joseph R. Biden, President Elect, Commander-In-Chief, Slayer of Russia, Saviour of Ukraine, Bane of the Republicans, Harbinger of Inflation wouldn't be president

For the blind, Arms is the light.

For the prisoner, Arms is the key.

For the traveler, Arms is the way.

banging my head into the wall as kitty cleave gladge

woeful solstice
#

whats ur mmr at rn

mild thunder
#

im too embarrassed to say, we've dropped so omega hard

woeful solstice
#

i played a bit of kittycleave at like 2.1 it was fucking hilarious deleting the fistweaver teams

#

but its hard against anything else rn

mild thunder
#

we're also tanking atm to bring our healer up on his rsham

woeful solstice

mild thunder

ret buffs caused me to start fluctuating a bunch lol

mild thunder
#

my feral friend dropped 400 rating as jungle LOL

woeful solstice

mild thunder
#

from 2300 to 1900

woeful solstice
#

id quit

#

oh my god

mild thunder
#

ye jungle fell off so hard with ret meta

#

feral in general fell off pretty hard imo... gets tunneled super hard

woeful solstice
#

i really hope s2 goes a bit smoother

mild thunder
#

100% copium

woeful solstice
#

with ss deflating its gonna be funny seeing the forum posts and copium

#

"I was 3100 SS S1...barely touching 2.2k now"

mild thunder
#

2.2 is generous

woeful solstice
#

i hope they deflate the fuck out of it so 2.4 actually means something decent in ss

mild thunder
#

maybe

magic wing
#

So even less ppl play it, great

#

GW2 pvp is more alive at this point

fresh valve
#

why would they play it less lmfao

#

what else are they gonna do

fresh valve
#

yk things are bad when I'm less stressed out playing PoE than wow pvp

magic wing
fresh valve
#

cuz they cant get elite gear?

#

vicious mounts?

humble gyro
#

whats the best target in disc /rsham- ele - feral?

lean burrow
#

feral?

old trail
#

Boots > lariat for embellishments for arms right?

#

or is it boots > helm?

idle falcon
#

@fresh valve i did good on the exam :D

fresh valve
#

good job

#

now push glad

idle falcon
#

XD

#

Can u even get glad/glad mount in solo shuffle?

fresh valve
#

no

#

only 3's

idle falcon
#

:P

#

but i have no friends >_<

fresh valve
#

get some

teal hedge
#

Yeah I gotta work on my PvP

#

I think I struggle a lot with positioning and getting taken advantage of by long-range-classes

muted surge
#

Just charge

#

Pop all cds

#

And charge again

#

All you gotta do in shuffle

lean burrow
#

yo, I feel retarded, I casted poly on dh but the the game said "immune"

#

what gives immunity?

#

nvm, I think plater just doesn't show spellwarding properly

#

nvm, I am actually retarded, it was glimpse

teal hedge
#

5 wins, +23 rating

muted surge
#

Should be glad that you got rating at all

teal hedge
#

Was gonna get 6 wins but then the mage decides it's time to stand still infront of the hunter and not do anything

muted surge
#

You gotta work on your uptime tho

teal hedge
#

Yeah

#

Don't really know how though

muted surge
#

Dont forget to apply hamstring all thr time :)

teal hedge
#

Charging between targets just to apply rend seems a little silly

#

Oh yeah, hamstring prio nr 1

muted surge
#

And if someone runs away, hit the closest target

#

Until you can engage the main again

#

Dont just stand around sucking toes

muted surge
#

Rend isnt high dmg

#

And you want to keep charge to actual engage

teal hedge
#

Yeah

#

Fighting that mage was nightmarish

#

He kept pushing me away and slowing me

#

And charge was on cooldown the entire fight, so was leap

muted surge
#

Idk I still dont like mage as a main target

teal hedge
#

Mage was really bad, so we targetted him

vapid tartan
#

finally hit 2k ty for all the help yall

teal hedge
#

Congratulations!

bright stream
vapid tartan
#

Yeah was kinda stuck at 1800 for a bit so it might take longer for 2100 lol

teal hedge
#

I cannot believe this

#

I am back in ELO hell

#

Where teammates rage, break LoS and don't pop cds

lean burrow
#

i just got 1.8k on mage

#

giga cringe seeing warriors and rets everywhere

magic wing
#

The enchant sucks tho

#

Rather go 2.4 for weaps

bright stream
bright stream
#

imo it's even quite good with the warrior theme

woeful solstice
#

Games not much diff 1800-2100 ss

#

Keep improving 1% you’ll hit it

#

If ur not watching ur matches back you are leaving free rating on the table

bright stream
#

unles you're dying in 30 minute queues

muted surge
#

Considering it looks like shit

bright stream
muted surge
#

Maybe I haven’t seen any tmog that it fits in

#

But the effects are just lacking, if it would be only thr lightning, yea its alright, but the wind thing ruins it

bright stream
#

it looks quite good on a lot of simple weapons

magic wing
#

Yeah doesnt match the armor at all

quaint snow
bright stream
#

just a quick example, looks clean as

#

way better than dreadflame or primal victory, which are decent, but all 4 Slands enchants were rank garbage

quaint snow
#

im on your side wolf

bright stream
#

deadset, the cosmetics for season 1 this expac, are probably the best looking we've had since some of the warlords sets

magic wing
#

Legion

#

Best sets all over

bright stream
#

DK's made out like bandits that expac, warriors came up pretty dry imo

magic wing
#

Antorus and ToS elite remain best warrior sets of all time

bright stream
#

huge fan of this, and the current 1

magic wing
#

Its dec but doesnt pop so much

#

Shame I didnt pvp that season

#

Only armor that matches Taeshalach perfectly

#

1900 SS CR ATM , Queue are 40 min long and still counting ....

mortal elm
#

How can i find a rbg communiy

#

which is at 1k range or smt

#

Soloq healer is clownfest, soloq dps takes too much time

#

i wanna take 1 vicious saddle

#

or 3v3ing is more worth than rbgs?

muted surge
#

Rbg is pugging until higher rating

#

Or you look at forums

obsidian loom
#

Vs demo are we even supposed to play unhinged anymore?

#

Fucking zoo

#

I feel like you're better off with ep or something else

#

Amplify curse is also pretty awful

mortal elm
#

do you think which one is the fastest way to fill the bar

#

3v3, solo shuffle or rbgs

#

as dps

mortal elm
frosty nexus
#

i swear solo queue time has got way worse but i guess we're close to season end

#

must just be loads of people hitting 2400 then never queueing again

bright stream
#

go hard, hit your goals, and then maybe pop back in for a bit at the end

#

right now the ret thing is probably pushing people away a lot too

frosty nexus
#

yea ngl i havent queued in weeks

bright stream
#

doesnt help that there's nothing in ss to play for after 2400 either

muted surge
#

R1 :)

sharp meteor
#

there's like a 1k cr range between rewards

#

half hour queues also kind of demoralizing

For sure

# muted surge R1 :)

I thought about going hard on it at the start of the season but just couldn't be bothered - though that was before the account changes blizzard made and getting busy with life

exotic storm
#

You really think we’ll see more rets after today? More dps nerfs going thru

sharp meteor
#

no more tuning for rest of season probably

#

i could see more ret adjustments next season tho

spice hornet
#

Why is a demo allowed to nearly perma amp curse of weak me all game

#

Lock in general

sharp meteor
#

because avg warlock player dies opener

spice hornet
#

Lo

mild thunder
#

even with the crit nerfs, they have a defensive and utility toolkit that can dampen and delay games to eternity if needed

sharp meteor
#

ya surprised they let that go live

#

ret actually just drags every game out

#

an extra few minutes

#

because they themselves couldn't die

#

and prevented teammates from dying

#

the counterplay was "hope they don't press" and "just find your own ret" lmao

mild thunder
#

i really dont like how they handled this weeks' tuning as well - they focused on numbers as opposed to the stupidly low CDs

sharp meteor
#

idk how they tune the cd for ret

#

as it's in the pala tree isn't it

mild thunder
#

just add an extra 30sec CD in pvp

#

but only for ret

#

ez

sharp meteor
#

also watch dp and sac nerf somehow affect the other specs lmaoo

#

hpal in eternal shambles

mild thunder
#

probably, it is a smol indie company after all gladge

#

but ye, DP and sac both should have been made at least 90s instead of hitting numbers

#

judge dispel needs to be removed for ret entirely

#

after that i think they're okay

quaint snow
#

are the ret nerfs live already on eu? Or tmrw?

frosty nexus
#

tomorrow

spice hornet
#

Isn’t eu reset in Wednesday

mild thunder
#

eu keks

why did i lose 200 points this wekk then kek

#

guess i stop queueing for today

idle falcon
#

ok @fresh valve i timed both ruby and nokhud +20

#

now push glad?

#

:D

viscid pecan
#

very noob question

#

but how do i get a tier set in pvp ?

fallen agate
#

same place you get your other tier pieces. you just convert a pvp item, conquest or honor item

#

the "converts to ilvl 424 in pvp" does not get removed when converting, but stats change and it will be set piece. sadly gems get removed.

Lost 300 in 2 days

2450 mmr bubba this mount will be mine

stark reef
#

Imagine having friends in game

#

🤣

woeful solstice
#

LFG grind wasnt easy but now i have like 10 tags im down to play with constantly

#

hoping i can take this to next season as well and snag that mount

stark reef
#

Next season it's time for R1 in shuffle

woeful solstice
#

i might still go for r1 shuffle if im not even close to r1 3s

stark reef
#

I mean 3k shuffle is pretty much like 3s, no?

woeful solstice
#

r1 cutoff for 3s is so fucking low im gonna go for it

#

imagine my first gladiator is r1

stark reef
#

3s with the added spice of no comms

obsidian loom
#

Blizzard had a great season that they just shit on with retmeta

woeful solstice
#

it wasnt that great

#

lol

#

3s was so fucking dead dude

#

at least during this we have games happening

stark reef
#

I seriously wish they fix the queues

woeful solstice
#

i remember before 10.0.7 i'd log on like a friday afternoon and there was 6-7 groups in lfg

obsidian loom
#

Because their cr inflation is traumatized by s2 sl being so overinflated

stark reef
#

Just put in bot healers

obsidian loom
#

I'd prefer bot heals

woeful solstice
#

yeah ret was busted but we had like 5x the amount of groups in lfg playing LOL

stark reef
#

Probably better anyways

woeful solstice
#

got people playing again

#

combine that with the season end being announced and 3s feels as alive as it did the first couple months

stark reef
#

5min queue, if it doesn’t pop give me a bot and let’s go

woeful solstice
#

so as usual, best time to play is beginning and end of a season

obsidian loom
#

Bot heals will probably use their CDs

woeful solstice
#

i wasnt queing 3s until like 2 weeks ago, yeeted straight to 2100 and been kinda pingponging a bit

obsidian loom
#

I can't tell you how many times I'm tapped on defensives and the god damn rsham is holding onto link

obsidian loom
#

"why didn't you leap"

#

Listen you little shit, ret is a holy mage now

stark reef
#

Love it when healers hold CDs for the next round

#

“Oh look, enemy team popped everything. Take this flash heal brother.”

obsidian loom
#

But healing stream totem was up

#

How could this happen

woeful solstice
#

oh boy i cant wait for the streamer tierlist garbage content hitting my youtube feed today

turbo prob gonna be nutty

DK being buffed means turbo is good if DK is relevant

#

wow im so shocked:

obsidian loom
#

Do zoomers consume this

#

Does it have a glad carry service advertised too

#

Remember when maldiva got permaed for rmt and blizz let him play again for some reason

woeful solstice
#

i dont think blizz can stop it lol

obsidian loom
#

@elfin surge why weren't you banned

woeful solstice
#

banning rmt would prob ban 1/3rd of the ladder at this point LOL

stark reef
#

Someone’s gotta pay for the 18hr/day schedule

woeful solstice
#

i think after that big banwave in sl s2 that hit a bunch of innocent people they are gonna be real reluctant

#

but they got that one carry site knocked out so who knows

I mean tbh, it’s like that every game and if you’re good at something and someone is willing to pay for your services, I don’t see the problem

sharp meteor

queuing into same people every season doing rmt selfplays

#

most don't even need to make a new acc

woeful solstice
sharp meteor
#

lot of their buyers had their mounts yoinked tho lmao

#

curious to see how hard they crack down this season

obsidian loom

then immediately stop

woeful solstice

LMAO

#

hahahaha

obsidian loom

Lmfao

stark reef
#

Hahaha

obsidian loom
#

Took a month to muster queue anxiety

sharp meteor
#

i had a buddy who'd play league accounts and a lot of buyers were like return customers

#

because they'd get boosted then play and tank

#

then get boosted again

#

then get "unlucky"

#

and need another boost

woeful solstice
#

yeah..vicious cycle

sharp meteor
#

like boiii

woeful solstice
#

thats wild

#

just like

#

get a new hobby

obsidian loom
#

Do they convert cheevs into dates with girls or something

It’s like people buying boosts in league

E-thot economy runs on glad mounts

honestly feels better to reach 1800 yourself than to get carried

feels like an achievement :D

woeful solstice

same with glad

sharp meteor
#

honestly getting carried probs fastest way to improve so i don't blame people for trying it at least once

woeful solstice
#

self play yeah prob

sharp meteor

i play with friend who has never pvp'd before and just structure games in such a way that they just get to spam damage and

Coaching is fine I guess

it's a really good time

woeful solstice

pilot is fucking awful

#

like

sharp meteor
#

o ya

woeful solstice
#

WHY are you playing

sharp meteor
#

i think a lot of people just need that initial framework

woeful solstice
#

pay to play game, pay someone else to play game for you

sharp meteor
#

of like cd trading and whatnot

#

wow pvp kind of nebulous relative to pve

woeful solstice
idle falcon
woeful solstice

i had to deal with so much shit

and learning

sharp meteor

u don't know why u died 30 seconds in like u do in pvp where u stood in swirly ya feels

woeful solstice
#

unguided

idle falcon
#

never played PvP before

woeful solstice
#

i played like 1000 games to hit 2k in 3s legion just for that elite warrior set

i was SO bad

nothin clicks faster

#

than playing with somebody better

woeful solstice
stark reef
#

Tbh I’d rather pay a better guild to raid with than spend the time with a worse guild wiping and hearing spergs lose their marbels

woeful solstice
#

i was playing with a really good multiglad mage

#

we did discord and qued a few nights and it was like a permanent +300 mmr for me ever since

sharp meteor
#

had never played rogue much and somebody was like just let team know when u kidney and each kidney is cross onto healer plus offensive cd on kidney'd guy

#

and went up to like 2500 2s and 2700 3s in a month

felt so cooked that it just hadn't quite clicked for me

but then again that's bfa assa

actually might be rounds idk

woeful solstice

yeah rounds not games

stark reef
#

Prob rounds

woeful solstice
#

ss is counted by rounds

#

in your history

#

700 rounds roughly 115 matches

#

times that by an avg 25 min que

#

47 hours

#

just in que

stark reef
#

I did 800 rounds on fury to 2k and then did 80 rounds on arms to 2.1k

Lesson: just play what’s good

woeful solstice
#

thats why i hate solos

idle falcon
#

rest fury

#

am 1800 now

#

xd

#

lesson

#

get gud

stark reef
#

Fury is so much more fun

idle falcon
#

yessir

stark reef
#

Initially I wanted 1800 but now it looks like I can push 2400 so I’ll see if that’s true

#

My yolo strats not working as well anymore though, so now I actually have to swap targets to win rounds

#

"funny cd's"

teal hedge
#

We're back to climbing

copper hare
#

like blaming people on 1.5k mmr for playing bad is pretty pathetic

teal hedge
#

I see what you're aiming at, but you have got to realise the plays that occur.

#

And I'm in no way discrediting my own mistakes, refer to my previous chats.

#

But seeing people rage and throw is extremely demoralising.

#

I mean, I've posted my gameplay, I am making a conscious effort to improve my gameplay.

#

Is a geat not allowed to complain?

fallen agate
teal hedge
copper hare
#

Yeah but people are on this mmr for a reason, most of them don't even know better

teal hedge
#

Well yeah! And I'm no pro-gamer™️ but it can get a little demoralising dropping because a teammate gets angry or doesn't know any better, even with positive feedback.

fallen agate
#

but at 1500MMR you can also expect people to play badly, so yeah...expect them to throw your games and play good when your opponent, it's a given. move on and next game they are good with you and bad as opponents, don't get triggered is best recommendation when playing through that mmr bracket

teal hedge
#

Like, anything as simple as "Try to stay within LoS of the healer, I'll help keep you alive best as I can" can set some people off.

teal hedge
#

But I've got some issues with getting dísorientated and not having good uptime, but besides that I can carry out the status quo, I think.

#

But yeah, I hope to hit 1800 cr before the new season drops.

#

Also, you're right, I should check my toxicity and not complain about others' mistake when I make flawed plays all of the time, just the time-sink part being pretty depressing.

#

Though I do need some advice, many times when I target hunters/evokers they just run away endlessly and I end up exhausting my charges and getting kited. What should I do in order to play around this?

stark reef
stark reef
#

I always do

teal hedge
#

So real

stark reef
#

Can’t stand healers

#

Reminds me of support mains in league

teal hedge
stark reef
#

As ADC main support mains are pure pain

fallen agate
teal hedge
#

Yeah, that might be it.

stark reef
#

Always the worst player in the game, elo inflated, backseat gaming whilst pressing one CD every 20 seconds and literally attached to your back

teal hedge
#

I often times charge in and they I get cc'd and then charge to keep pressure up, but then the evoker just books it and I'm left with having to walk and tank a disintegrate

stark reef
#

🤝

#

The fact that you have time to watch me play and tell me what I should do after the round tells me all I need to know

fallen agate
teal hedge

Yeah, uptime is my main issue, I think

#

And sometimes I get really disorientated by mob-health etc and lose track of the characters

fallen agate
#

turn off pet healthbars

teal hedge
#

Is that possible?

fallen agate
teal hedge
#

My saviour

fallen agate
#

i only have totem healthbars turned on, that's an option in plater though, not standard ui. it would be good to see hunter pet health too, but i cba to see DK and WL pets hp bars, so i have pets turned off completely. not something pros would do, but i ain't that either

teal hedge
#

That's real

#

I'm gonna get a bunch of alts when +50% xp rolls around, I think

#

And hopefully that gives me some more insights to PvP as a whole, considering the only thing I'm familiar with is my own class

#

NOOO TANK ARENA

fallen agate
#

at some point you might want to see shaman totems to kill them, but you probably have lots of stuff to still work on

teal hedge
#

I punch the totems when they trap me

fallen agate
#

kill healing tide and streams aswell. and the warlock totem, the green one.

teal hedge
#

large bars also help oml

#

Oh okay

#

Do I have to auto-attack them or can I kill em with abilities?

fallen agate
#

abilities is faster. just not the good ones. use whatever that purple abilitiy is called, the filler ability

teal hedge
#

Slam?

#

I use rend

fallen agate
#

if it works then i guess it's fine? no clue, like i said, haven't played my warrior in DF yet.

teal hedge
#

That's fair

#

Climbing back up though!

#

Sadly queues are longer around 1,5k to 1,6k

lean burrow
#

evokers got Hover, also freedom

#

stun them, do you burst, then if they are running with freedom swap to other target

fresh valve
#

do that

lean burrow
#

for totems use heroic throw if low hp like skyfury/counter strike

#

overpower/rend/ms for healing stream/tide

#

can also hamstring low hp totems

teal hedge
#

Oh right! I have to bind heroic throw

#

Been putting that off

#

Also oughta bind hamstring to my charge, are there any drawbacks to this?

stark reef
#

No, if you use it right not really

#

You have to press it twice anyways

So if you don’t want it don’t press it twice

Tilting is counter productive to owning noobs so i just try to remain cool and examine my own losses. Chances are I'm fucking something up.

i dont tilt, i fall into a deep depression after tanking cr and I wont stop stressing about it until it's recovered.

Yeah, I ought to be recording my games more often.

Oh did the paladin nerf just drop?

you want more haste or crit with bleed build ?

Pretty sure haste is prioritised.

Oh btw, what's the opener for the bleed build? @elfin surge

I do the funny charge > stun > avatar > colossus > sharpen+ms

Is skullsplitter busted?

Anyone tried skullsplitter spear with crit?

stark reef
#

Did we say no dot builds into resto-shaman?

#

Due to earthen wall?

magic wing
#

I like bleed too much to swap off now

stark reef
#

I mean I just don't do damage into resto-shamans

sharp meteor
#

roar and bleeds in general do nothing into earthen yeah

#

and they can move earthen

#

was tempted to try spear with slam stuff and just go rsham vs retwarrs

stark reef
#

I can see it - point out of rend into improved slam or sks

magic wing
#

the weapon is prolly a big upgrade right ? I have 418 rn

stark reef
#

will try this - out of rend, into sks, use sks on cd during overpower & MS

stark reef
magic wing
#

does that sim the pvp ilvl tho ?

stark reef
#

no

#

I assumed your other gear was PvP gear

#

Then do stat-weights

magic wing
#

I have a couple pve pieces still

stark reef
#

But long story short, weapon is big upgrade, yes, assuming you have verse on and decent ilvl on other pieces

#

If your weapon has verse and is 418 and you have other stuff in the 405 range with no verse i'd replace that

#

But that's just me guessing

magic wing
#

I still have the blue stun trinket but that shit only adds a couple str right

stark reef
#

tried sks, hits like a truck but i can't play it yet

easy 140k hits every 30ish seconds

sweeping strikes it into a melee cleave

heres my build

#

can adjust as needed, drop unhinged for imp execute against demo lock, etc.

#

feels weird not having a capstone but fatality kinda sucks when not running the execute enhancing talents anyways

#

can also go massacre

#

perks of this build, you should never rage starve if spreading rend out with bnt and you also get some sweet self healing

#

fueled by violence was matching my IP healing by about 50-60%

#

higher into demo lock/cleaves

stark reef
#

I see - I have to get used to the new button

#

Ran this into mm, bm, afli lock

#

I love the fact that these trees give so many options - blizzard def did well here

stark reef
#

or spreads it?

muted surge
#

It applies it

#

Fueled by violence doesn’t include rend

#

And you don’t rage starve anyway

#

Execute talents do not influence fatality, you would press it anyway

#

It just helps to finish a target off

woeful solstice
muted surge
#

You take that talent anyway

#

No matter if you play sks or not

It complicates your rotation by a bit

woeful solstice
#

but absolutely the fuck not

#

if you're still struggling with pvp basics the last thing you want to do is complicate your rotation up

#

you want rotation to be so autopilot that you glance at your bars to check cooldowns and return to watching the match itself

teal hedge
#

Aight, I'll focus on improving my uptime then

woeful solstice
#

youll get much more value out of being better at the more trad builds and improving in other areas than trying to squeeze out another few % in dmg from a clunkier build

unique fox
#

Spear and crit build is perfectly good and more simple to execute

woeful solstice
#

yup or roar/bleed build, either one is great

#

sks has its uses and might edge out more dmg if you're really good at it but i wouldnt stress over it

yo ragebro's- does any1 know which addon we need to get to be able to have icons drop on the screen when spells like war banner is used or psyfiend? ive seen Bajheera play multiple times but never got an answer- he drops war banner and it has a skill icon next to the flag, likewise for the priest psyfiend. Like it lets you know its been dropped if you have name plates turned off cuz of those obnoxious demo pets

disarm -> vene parry first ret go

#

can prob disarm -> vene rally/kite 2nd ret go

#

stop qq'ing it's not that bad

#

just respect the rets damage and play around it

#

warrior shits all over ret now after nerfs

mild thunder
#

that's very wishful thinking... intervening at the wrong time is just a death sentence for you, rally is not enough to mitigate wings and disarm is not enough when it lasts 23 seconds

woeful solstice
#

it's been working for me

mild thunder
#

don't you also play with a ret though?

woeful solstice
#

not always

#

vene+parry is safe

#

2nd go yeah i can agree

mild thunder
#

if you're playing with another ret that also bops + sacs + off-heals and whatever else, it's a bit different

woeful solstice
#

right

#

it makes it way more forgiving

mild thunder
#

intervene + parry only lasts 3 seconds, disarm is another ~6... that's still 13 seconds left on wings lol

#

it's doable, sure, but it's not a walk in the park

woeful solstice
#

right, but if you've stopped the coordinated go, that's big impact

#

or at least misaligned their go

mild thunder
#

ret does not need coordination to kill

#

esp if you're playing with another squishy/low utility spec like feral

#

which is wild times when feral feels low utility into ret/warr lmao

woeful solstice
#

never thought we'd be saying that

mild thunder
#

ye it's pretty dumb

stark reef
#

my strat is to just parry and try to do so much damage to the ret that he has to think about his own healthbar

#

Just go max burst on ret

#

I honestly feel arms burst can match ret now

#

open csmash, bolt, avatar + spear w/ unhinged, rend, skullsplitter, bladestorm again with unhinged, MS, execute spam

Managing bleeds at 1500 a bit of an overkill

# woeful solstice heres my build

Is the reason you take honed reflexes over concussive blows for the overpower cd reduction? Also if I want to run fatality would it be worth swapping exhilarating blows for either massacre or improved execute?

spice hornet
#

I dislike unhinged I wish they put something else instead of that whack talent

vapid tartan
woeful solstice
#

also the two side talents (wrecking/shatter) (conc/sidearm) are very comp dependant

#

i swap those around almost every game

vapid tartan

where do you want sidearm?

woeful solstice

you could technically drop honed for another point in cruel strikes

woeful solstice
#

fighting into them

#

my build is a bit unorthodox for sks but i like it

vapid tartan
#

Got it

woeful solstice
#

mess around with it

#

you can throw fatality back in too and drop bloodsurge

#

fatality prob a better pick most of the time tbh

vapid tartan
#

Yeah I feel like it’s won me a decent amount of rounds but looking back at the meters fueled by violence does a lot

woeful solstice
#

wouldn't take EP on the SKS build cause ur dropping imp exec and massa

woeful solstice
#

it usually is like 50-60% of my IP

vapid tartan
#

this is what ive got going on now

#

do you think it'd be worth swapping blunt instruments for exhillerating blows? I think this might be fine since theres already more buttons to press so might not need it

woeful solstice
#

exhil is really good but its unreliable

#

i think you should still take it

#

you wouldnt drop blunt instruments

#

drop massacre* for exhil on the sks build

vapid tartan
#

What would I swap? Massacre?

woeful solstice
#

someone better might chime in

#

yea

#

thats the only thing you could swap realistically

#

also can drop unhinged on if facing demo/bm

#

and grab something else

vapid tartan
#

Hm yeah I guess it’s more rng damage vs more reliable bursf?

woeful solstice
#

exhil is good man sometimes ill get 3-4 mortals in a row

#

its huge

#

some talents are must-haves , i think exhil is one

vapid tartan

yeah I guess my worry is getting to gcd when it’s time to hit a fatality execute and the healer bumps their hp a bit too high b

That could be solved by better cc I guess
