Windfury totem becomes a passive raid buff, but no changes to the totemic hero talents

#

And leaving primordial wave in 🤮

limber relic
#

Surprised that blizzard are doing weird changes? 🤔

fickle forge
#

It's part of the new strat

#

Decrease amount of buttons without reducing class kits

#

It's so Blizz can release WoW mobile in 2025

#

Same way they baked Kill Command and Flanking Strike into the same button

#

Garbage

radiant oasis
#

You're out of your mind wow has way too many buttons

fierce elm
#

Not compared to before 😦

fickle forge
#

Must be hard to press Disintegrate and do 150k dps

radiant oasis
#

More buttons add artificial competitiveness in a very unsatisfying way

fierce elm
#

love me some 1 button specs

dense herald
fickle forge
#

If you can't handle buttons, then WoW isn't the game for you

#

Then it's time to start playing League or Overwatch instead

proper totem
#

game needs more buttons

#

pretty sure mobas were invented for people who couldn't handle rts buttons

#

enjoy your LoL rage

radiant oasis
#

League is a good example of a game that trimmed buttons and is wildly successful competitively and casually

dense herald
#

And most classes have max 5 rotational abilities

#

U also have evoker with 1 if u want to play a spec with 1 button

rancid granite
#

saw a reddit post some guy got glad on his steam deck or something np lol

mystic prairie
#

If you feel like you need a mouse with extra buttons, then that game has too many buttons.

fierce elm
#

I love moba wow

dense herald
#

I cant even get glad on pc

#

Skill issue ig

fickle forge
fickle forge
rancid granite
#

sounds like my kind of class

dense herald
#

i think thats current bms

sharp meteor
#

Sounds like a more complex version of fury (2 buttons)

balmy juniper
#

is this mostly retail pvp?

wheat jay
#

Yes

lavish quest
#

Mostly meme'ing on each other, let's be reall

zealous perch
#

why is every pinned comment in pvp only about arms. boooo

#

What's the better of the current two build options for fury for each type of content?

#

I can't find much discerning why i'd want to pick one over the other

fierce elm
#

lmao

#

Why isnt every pinned comment a dh/ret/assa guide

uncut sphinx
#

Is boomy arms a thing this expansion?

fickle forge
#

Why aren't the pings targeted at doing better lifts?

fierce elm
#

you probably wont be limited by it, no

zealous perch
#

I will never play arms regardless of how it performs lol

lavish quest
#

Because?

zealous perch
#

It's lame

#

2 two handers or 1? Easy choice

fickle forge
#

We're back to fury mains being katana loving weebs

zealous perch
#

Ew

fickle forge
#

Average fury warr in their head

zealous perch
#

No ty

#

Big smacc

fickle forge
#

Yeah that ain't fury

#

Will fury ever hit 5-digit numbers, who knows

zealous perch
#

Idc as long as target die

#

But actually though, can anyone answer my real question on the variations for fury in pvp rn

fickle forge
#

Just go Ravager

woeful solstice
#

you can create skill ceilings without adding a bazillion buttons to press

#

good game should be easy to pickup, difficult to master. right now wow arena is difficult to pickup and master

dense herald
#

its like addons and stuff

woeful solstice
#

it's multiple things but yeah

fierce elm
#

Pick up deva and press 1 button

boreal veldt
fierce elm
#

Slam dis for win

boreal veldt
boreal veldt
#

it has definitely helped me on my arena awareness though 100%

woeful solstice
#

everyone should play a healer

fickle forge
#

This is how PvP has been for 15 years, and it's had some good heights

#

The game isn't bad because you have a lot of buttons to press, that's what's to be expected

tribal holly
#

But do you really have alot of buttons to press?

fickle forge
#

I have about 40 binds or so

#

45 I think?

tribal holly
boreal veldt
#

how many stormbolt macros can one warrior need

fickle forge
#

123 kick, bolt, intervene etc.

tribal holly
#

thats 6

fickle forge
#

More like 9

#

Sorry, 8

#

Then the rest of the kit

kind sentinel
#

Bro just tab target stormbolt a random demo imp like the rest of us chads

boreal veldt
#

bout to say, only 2 intervene right lol

tribal holly
#

wdym 2 intervene? you can legit have charge and intervene on one button

boreal veldt
#

he probably has intervene party1&2

tribal holly
#

Bedge cant use mouse to mouseover

boreal veldt
#

i played with that and just switched to mouseover

#

BUT devil's advocate, if you switch from @ party to @ [playername] i'd say it's semi worth to have 2 binds

woeful solstice
fickle forge
#

You play party12 Intervene

tribal holly
woeful solstice
#

it is slow

boreal veldt
#

i was projecting

#

in solos i get confused which of my allies is 1 or 2

fickle forge
#

You can get FrameSort and it'll always order it from top to bottom

I don't think that's worth on warr.

#

Defs on ranged kicks.

woeful solstice
#

yea i dont do it on war but i do on dk/dh

wheat jay
#

Noobs

#

I have 54 without 123 macros

#

Y'all are wack

lavish quest
#

Artji has a macro for rerolling to every spec.
He's prepared for all patch note releases

wheat jay
#

Real

#

I played some dh

#

Won almost evrry game of 3s

#

@lavish quest what will be broken next expansion?

lavish quest
#

Wow

#

Mages

#

Rogues

dense herald
#

like take warrior for example

#

spam op and ms

#

zug zug

#

ret the same

#

alot of classes are simple

wheat jay
#

Every class is simple

#

Highest difficulty of specs is fucking hunters landing a trap cuz it flies there

#

Rest is just not being an idiot and not fucking up your cooldowns

#

Gratz, youre glad now

#

Go roll s tier comp and nuke everything harder than they try to nuke you

dense herald
#

Highest skill is like rogue

#

Cuz u gotta do all the cc

#

Ranged specs r hard except like bm cuz u dont have to cast

wheat jay
#

Rogue cc is instant

#

Hunt is the only one that has to land

#

Either way, no spec is inherently hard

#

All comes down to knowledge of when to press what

fickle forge
#

You run by healers, you can off-kick np

wheat jay
#

FOCUS KICK BROTHER

#

Reject 123, embrace focus

fickle forge
#

Yeah nevermind this dude goes "why did my focus not work? Oh the Rdruid stealthed and it got cancelled"

wheat jay
#

Never had that issue

zealous perch
#

Just make warrior 2 spec class and delete arms tbh

simple rock
#

I'll never go back to focus kick

#

ranged kick 123 is gaming

lavish quest
woeful solstice
#

fury is the bastard child spec

#

arms chads rise up

narrow compass
rancid granite
#

rogue the only class i played in pvp that made me feel like i matter and could win by outplay or something

#

instead of just pve dps mode

how are we going from the two best glad mounts (s1/s4 df) ever to this shit

Imagine you want to push glad

You make it

You get that bat xD

Look at the bright side, don't gotta care about glad next season

fickle forge

Nah that bat is LIT

Everyone always like, CC such skill.
Much skill to kill people when they can't fight back

dense herald
#

am i supposed to beat dk rdruid

cinder thorn
visual plover
#

i feel like shuffle (or perhaps intended pvp design) on all classes now is just zug is there even a setup class anymore? I quit mage to become a warrior because I was playing the old way polying burst cds peeling focusing less on damage and it did absolutly nothing its only when i changed my mindset to zug mode that i saw any modicum of success so if i gotta zug ima do it on the best zug class warrior

#

didn't care for the playstyle of mage after the realization that just pump damage = win but i love it on warrior

#

ik i was a filthy mage i have reformed and plan to main warrior in TWW and beyond

cinder sluice
#

The sins u committed against warriors will not be forgotten.

lavish quest
#

Man's finally trying to have some self respect

wheat jay
#

play meta

#

best way to have some fun in this game lmao

lavish quest
#

If you lack self respect, yes

wheat jay
#

if you want to have fun

rancid granite
#

fun is just not crying if you lose

#

watching people ignore classes they like just to play ThE mEtA and still lose

dense herald
#

Guys arms bad in tww right?

#

And gnome is required now cuz no double bladestorm

leaden sail
#

Do we already know if PvE is (kinda) mandatory for pvp so far? Like enchants, currencys or whatever you just get from raiding/m+ and you really want for pvp?

fierce elm
#

We dont, but most likely not

leaden sail
#

thank god. DUnno, some arms warrior changes reading bad to me, so i dont know if i wanna do rading with arms. But arms is my main and would just do pvp - but would kinda suck if i have disadvantages, because i dont pve with him... like BFA, where you was missing BiS Azerit Armor, broken M+ Weapons, Raid Trinkets and Essences, lol

quaint osprey

everybody says its ugly except @fickle forge but nobody makes a feedback post ragey

wheat jay
#

I played hero cleave

#

Theres 50 pets around

leaden sail
#

Casters these days work like melees but have range and need to cast some cc. But i jad games against elemental shamans who didnt cast one spell and doing tons of dmg.

Miss the times when ele was an underdog spec and you was kiting 24/7 with casting lightningbolt while running away

lavish quest
#

Mage threw away my 6-0

#

Reeeee

sturdy valve
#

Always gotta be that guy!

#

Usually its me!

lavish quest
#

On my side he decided to try to stand still a lot and take the dickens strat

sturdy valve
#

I have gotten 6-0 twice, both times on my first round with the arms and first round with fury.

#

After that it makes my mmr high and I get clowned on and piss everyone off.

lavish quest
#

Just win at high mmr

sturdy valve
#

I need enough gear to make up for my lack of skill

#

Unfortunately, at high mmr, they got gear too :/

Which add-on does that?

Framesort

balmy dawn

Not hasteful enough.

ignore pain weakaura that works please

#

sorry didnt mean to reply to your comment with my quiestion

question

fierce elm
#

when you just press it basically on cooldown?

sharp meteor
left lark
sharp meteor
#

It just

#

give sthe same amount

#

and it's on a cd so you can't overcap

#

like why would u want a weakaura for ip as arms

left lark
#

why is it popular

#

just trying stuff out

sharp meteor
#

sounds like more pointless screen clutter

fierce elm
#

It is just screen clutter

sharp meteor
#

cos it has no cd

fierce elm
#

press on CD, amount doesnt matter

sharp meteor
#

also prot has the whole ip>slam>tc thing with tier

rancid granite

lavish quest

Elite in 155 rounds. Beats my other seasons out the water at least

onyx marlin
lavish quest
#

THe one that procs from fire dmg?

onyx marlin
#

YE

lavish quest
#

Yes because its stats are fine and can be upgraded to 535

#

Higher than conq

#

Would take even without the shield tbh, its a nice extra too

balmy dawn
#

also it gives 80k shield

#

not just 20

onyx marlin
#

isnt it nerfed in pvp?

balmy dawn
#

i mean i checked while i was in a pvp match

#

otherwise its 260k shield

onyx marlin
#

IC

#

aight

balmy dawn
#

the fuck is the play against evoker as arms warrior? they just fly around and deal 99999999 million damage with desintegrate that they can cast while moving

#

you cant catch up to them, you cant even slow them with hamstring when they fly

fierce elm
#

crying is the play

lavish quest
#

One day casters won't be overtuned

#

I'll be dead by then

#

But it'll come

balmy dawn
#

im getting matched against the same evoker for like 3 matches in a row and they just delete me

bright kraken
#

how would yall rate the following war comps (just the ones i've enjoyed/know of)
turbo
arms/destro
ret/arms
arms/boomy
arms/DH
arms/ww

fierce elm
#

D, C, A, C, B, B

#

arms/dh can probs be A aswell

bright kraken
#

what makes arms/destro so bad?

fierce elm
#

Just doesnt do anything

#

Destro is gonna be trained and wont be able to deal any damage, arms cant output enough to drag destro with it

bright kraken
#

what comps does destro work with out of curiosity

fierce elm
#

Comps with another ranged spec

bright kraken
#

i just thought it did well because it was the only one that i really enjoyed doing xd

fierce elm
#

But destro rn feels eh tbh

#

I also dont think arms has enough peel power for destro

bright kraken
#

what else works with arms?

#

also how is turbo worse than arms/destro

fierce elm
#

Mage, Shadow maybe

#

Enhance/arms brings nothing to the table

bright kraken
#

does demo/arms work?

fierce elm
#

everyone can avoid their damage, get kited, have no defensives as enhance basically, no cc, their burst/consistent damage is low

#

Arms/Affli is probably the best ngl

bright kraken
#

omfg i forgot arms/uh

#

sorry arms/dk

fierce elm
#

Demo feels lackluster outside of long games

bright kraken
#

there's only 2 dk specs, blood and uh

fierce elm
#

TSG is also an A tier comp

bright kraken
#

what's TSG worst against

#

and how to you play agains it

#

as in

fierce elm
#

Physical damage for the DK

bright kraken
#

against TSG worst matchups

fierce elm
#

I mean, tsg has the same playstyle into everythng

#

set up, grip, stun healer, silence healer, hope you kill something

#

all while dk gets blasted

#

So yeah, just play w.e tbh

#

but tsg, ret/warr, dh/warr

bright kraken
#

fair

#

i've just

#

never won splay as that

#

as tsg

#

i mean

fierce elm
#

it happens

#

you can play an s-tier comp and absolutely suck at it

#

you can play a d tier comp and be gods at it

#

Pick one you enjoy

bright kraken
#

but then i gotta pug a destro and a healer

fierce elm
#

Yeah

#

If you are pugging just take w.e you can

I am getting close to all the gear I need from the arena vendor and I still feel squishy ish and my damage feels like shit.

Going to go watch some videos of other warriors but feels pretty bad lol

#

At 525 ilvl for pvp

tribal wedge
#

arms or fury?

urban skiff
urban skiff
tribal wedge
#

to be honest in fury i feeled a bit squishy, but i dislike this spec so, i'm not objectif in my feeling ahah

#

but arms is still tanky as hell

sharp meteor
#

Getting dragged while not being able to reach is the worst, though.

sturdy valve
#

So, doing 3s, and I am arms. Just feels like I get slammed harder than everyone else. Using def stance and Ignore pain and impending victory and spell reflect as I can.

sharp meteor
#

Also not charging them wen they have it up so they also get rooted is helpful if you don't have a stun.

sturdy valve
#

I am kind noob and know I am not doing it perfectly but just whew.

sharp meteor
#

Countering their buttons with stuns/fears also good.

#

But yeah this isn't sl can't afk dstance

#

or you just get further folded

sturdy valve
tribal wedge
#

i only use dstance when i'm disarm nowadays

#

or to prevent a stun etc

sturdy valve
#

I have been trying to fear and stun the healer when I can, (back to back if possible)

sharp meteor
#

Like rogue/x is just gonna get the opener 90% of the time might as well

#

take reduced dmg

sturdy valve
#

Want to see my gear atm?

sharp meteor
#

or even vs other teams, like if a warr laep bolts you

#

um sures

tribal wedge
#

what compo are you playing in 3s?

sturdy valve
#

solo shuffle

#

I don't have friends haha

tribal wedge
#

oh

#

Warr just kind of tossed around in some lobbies

#

and absorbin that presusre kind of

sturdy valve
#

I took the stam vers gems because I feel like I am getting wrecked.

#

And i know I need that 4/4 set bonus

#

About to get it.

#

My mmr right now is 1600 but thankfully I am winning some now

#

When I did my first games i went 6-0 and it put me in 2100 and that was a nightmare

#

I went 0-6 a lot

#

I would upload my last arena but I am on a hotspot and data is limited lol

#

I been recording.

#

I was gonna get the rings next but I should get that 4/4 set bonus first huh?

tribal wedge
#

yep

sturdy valve
#

One mage got grumpy at me and was like Bro, go get some versatility. I was like Exactly how much you want me to have!?!

#

Plus we like in 1600s together, we both suck, chill lol

#

I do feel like 1600s has been good so far, get about 3/3 each mach so thats about where I am lol

#

idk how everyone else is geared in there. maybe I should be a lot higher being this far along gear wise.

#

Versatility is at 36% though.

#

I know i need to get better at swapping stances, I need to remember that. I am good about going to defensive when I get dogpiled on, but I forget to go back to battle after.

tribal wedge
#

more is overkill

#

(anyway you'll get more with your last pieces)

sturdy valve
#

nvm its 42% when in pvp

tribal wedge
#

it's over over overkill

sturdy valve
#

That guy is nuts then telling me i need more vers lol

#

Should I go ahead and swap out gems then?

tribal wedge
#

yep

#

check the ping, you got the opti

sturdy valve
#

I think you meant pin? I see that.

tribal wedge
#

yeah mb

#

Thank you for the help Joek! You are my fav warrior now!

fierce elm
#

Prevoker/mw/rdruid

sharp meteor
deep tendon
#

is it pres>mw or mw>pres

#

i know mw better but could pick up pres if its better

sharp meteor
#

idk i feel like pres is better but rdruid bias

just play with w/e u got and w/e they're more comfy with

#

Aha

fierce elm
#

Fear and stun does not have the same DR

balmy dawn
#

So better to switch focus?

fierce elm
#

It can be depending on situation

balmy dawn
fierce elm
#

Disorient and stun does not share dr no

balmy dawn
#

Also knockback has no reduction

balmy dawn
#

Pummel*

tribal wedge
#

they don't

balmy dawn
#

Ok

tribal wedge
#

kick has no dr

fierce elm
#

Kick doesnt have a dr

#

all you gotta keep track off as warrior is stun and fear dr

balmy dawn
#

Then how come after a few interrupts the enemy casting bar turns grey(protected)?

cinder thorn
#

Some classes have mechanics that make them uninterruptable at times

#

That's when it turns grey

tribal wedge
#

or when sompeone give them a precog proc

I am about to start getting toxic in these solo queues though. There are some real buttheads in these things.

Hi all. I was thinking of getting into PvP as an arms warrior specifically for mounts.

No delusions of grandeur here I suck at it and am anxious AF to try it. Do I play battlegrounds or Arenas? Is “meta” an actual thing there?

#

Don’t be afraid to ping me I don’t mind

#

If you want mounts then it's arena

#

Yeah meta is a thing, but doesn't matter at all if you just wanna grind out mounts

If its Vicious Mounts then the best and fastest is probably 3s or solo shuffle

#

If its glad mounts its purely 3v3 and if you are entirely new you probs wont get it in a long time

#

Best way is to try to get some basic info about how arena works and then just send it and suck for a long time

hollow falcon
# fierce elm what mounts

As much as I can get to add to the collection. What are the differences between the Vicious and glad mounts? Also what’s a glad mount? XD

fierce elm
#

Glad mounts are hard to get despite people saying glad is ez

#

Everything is done in rated pvp however, skirmishes, unrated bgs, blitz, does not award any mounts

hollow falcon
#

Okay so how do I get honor? And can I buy mounts with that?

lavish quest
#

There are some mounts you can get with marks of honor

hollow falcon
#

Okay awesome. Guess I spam some arena tonight. People gonna be so mad at me

balmy dawn
#

does disarm do anything on hunter?

#

like is it worth taking against?

#

or do i just take my storm of destruction?

fierce elm
#

Disarm into MM

#

nothing else

#

drop shout tbh

balmy dawn
#

surv?

fierce elm
#

Naaa disarm into only MM

balmy dawn
#

duel?

fierce elm
#

no

sharp meteor
#

Disarm is 100% auto pick on Arms into Markmanship.

radiant oasis
#

Is there an addon I can use to track certain cooldowns on nameplates?

sharp meteor
#

Fury is kind of weird because you have two mandatory talents and bloodrage feels nice.

radiant oasis
#

Yeah i found one

fierce elm
#

Even most like nameplate addons have them

radiant oasis
#

nameplatecooldowns is exactly what i wanted

fierce elm
#

Nameplatecooldowns is what my guy wants

# hollow falcon Hi all. I was thinking of getting into PvP as an arms warrior specifically for m...

I am doing what you just described, working on getting the viscious mount. I am 27% of the way there and it has taken a while on solo shuffle. In fact most all day yesterday going from 2% to 27%. But I mostly geared up first, with honor and then the conquest gear, crafted gear, and gear from trophy of strife. Not sure if it optimal to do that or jump straight into solo shuffle but yeah, I got some gear first. Maybe at least half of my gear glad gear and have the weapon before even doing 1 solo shuffle. I have been doing solo shuffle and queues are 8-15 minutes long.

I did however not start in solo shuffle though that might be viable. I do the daily things for each unranked type of gameplay, but mostly the bgs, epic bgs, and blitz. The first time you win every day you get a decent honor and conquest boost.

Between queues do your weekly outdoor pvp quest and just tinker around and do pvp and world quests and get that war supply crate. You need the trophy of strife from that weekly quest and

#

Also if I did it again, I would probably throw my first 6 rounds of solo shuffle or at least 3 of the 6 lol. In each spec I went 6-0 in my first game and it set my mmr to 2100 and I went like 0-6 my next three games and got yelled at.

#

Like it sucked.

#

Like at 2100, if you are not fully geared, they will find out you are the squishy clown in the first round and they will smash you the next 5. And everyone will look at you with disgust.

wheat jay
#

Ye

#

Makes sense

#

But, why care about it?

#

Lol

sturdy valve
#

Getting clowned on so many times in a row made me want to break my keyboard lol

#

It was not fun

#

And people said mean things which made me angrier.

#

And I am like BLIZZARD DID THIS NOT ME!!!

#

Then when I finally got down to 1500 and 1600 and everything was fine, every now and then someone says something smart and I am like "Man, your in 1600s, you suck too, stfu."

#

But yeah I have been getting high and higher, trying to get better and not los my healer, cc'ing their healer and at the right times and such.

#

Almost to 1700 now

wheat jay
#

That's regular pvp experience

#

People are toxic

#

It is what it is

#

Ignore toxic people and keep playing

#

Or dont ignore and get angry, and stop playing

sturdy valve
#

Yeah, i mean a lot of times what they have to say, like the technical thing they have to say is legit.

#

But they say it in such a smart ass way

#

I just jump on people that say anything mean to anyone now.

wheat jay
#

They are in the same cr mmr bracket they can suck ass, they aint better than you lol

sturdy valve
#

Heal bitches at our mage. I am like dude, stop sucking at healing. You gotta heal him, smash your heal buttons nerd.

#

Stop complaining, heal

#

Yeah haha, we all bad, we all 1600s like geez

#

That healer aint 1600 cuz his teamates are bad in solo shuffle

wheat jay
#

Yep

sturdy valve
#

But yeah, I would like to get the cat raptor mount and 1800 and thats my goals for the season. After that I may do some pvp on my alt but will probably run some mythics on my warrior. Do some more tanking.

#

Although I don't like the current pvp gear looks, I just as well get it all at 1800. Wear it with pride for all the suffering to get it 😄

#

Right now my gear is I guess the pvp gear looks from season 2, it looks pretty cool. The green season 2 set.

#

When you catalyze the glad gear thats what it turns into.

the trolling is real in low brackets

and i run hpriest, it's the easiest heals

fierce elm
#

Oh trust me

#

i'll be out here dispelling all the HoJs off you boys that i never got

sturdy valve
#

Haha, to be clear though, I am not doing mean talk to anyone except if they do it first lol

#

I think its rediculous.

#

Like its just as easy to say "Hey, try to get some more kicks in please." Then like "Buh, if you can't kick him, then please uninstall"

#

tbh I haven't gotten to where I know which is worth kicking or not lol, if I see a yellow bar I kick it haha

#

Obviously fear/hex/poly would be worth it, not sure I would get many chances to if I reserved it for that ?

#

Getting better, trying to put a bit more focus on my cc and situational awareness.than just chasing someone around dpsing

#

The timing on the cc needs improving too.

narrow compass
#

Fragile egos

sturdy valve
#

It just takes someone that knows they are doing 50 things wrong to take it well! haha

#

But yeah, when people say stuff like that to me, usually they are right about what they are telling me for sure. They are just such jerks about it.

Maybe I’m just old (40’s) but I’m always playing therapist/mediator in solos

Setting at 17% crit, 30 haste, 38 mastery, and 39 versatility.

Need to get that crit down and mastery up a bit I guess. Could even trade some haste for mastery I think

#

Oh wait, 17 crit is fine according to pin.

#

Okie dokie

narrow compass
#

You have legendary don’t you

sturdy valve
#

No, how do I get that?

#

I got the glad weapon.

#

Don't answer that, I will google it

narrow compass
sturdy valve
#

I am not gonna worry about it then tbh. I just need the pvp mount and 1800

narrow compass
#

I’m on my 9th or 10th heroic kill and I’ve yet to get it. I’d be shocked if I get it next week.

#

You def don’t need it, especially for 1800.

Next season I will go a little more hard. I just came back to the game like 3 or so weeks ago

hexed ether

you all ever see healers intentionally throwing for eachother so they get 3-3 (i can only assume to farm legend). 70% winrate to 2550 and i go 0-6 in a lobby that fury war does great in. both healers hpriest and never void shift once on my team. who knows maybe 2500 current glad healers forget their major cds while they're not cc'd.

sharp meteor
#

I feel like both healers conspiring to wintrade so that you lost every round is the less likely thing that happened here.

hexed ether
sharp meteor
#

Hmm. Decent chance it did.

hexed ether
#

I don’t care I’ll just win it back. Very easy to climb just boring waiting queues.

hexed ether
hexed ether
# sharp meteor Hmm. Decent chance it did.

Healers not pressing CDs while not ccd when it’s their save feels bad. Maybe I should’ve played better so they never have to use a cd but if you’re a good player you know that’s not feasible. Oh well

sharp meteor
#

Losing every round and thinking "wintraders" is wild

lavish quest

Nah, happens all the time.
Only explanation why they will never link or swap when on my side

well, i didnt "make" them go 0-6 but i was totally fine with a 4-2

hexed ether
# sharp meteor Losing every round and thinking "wintraders" is wild

Not pressing CDs 3 rounds in a row then the other healer not pressing 3 rounds in a row is wild. Might not be win trading for legend wins where they can spam Queue into each other. Very plausible that healers not pressing CDs is my fault lol. You’re right I’ll work on my CD trading

hexed ether

way to stick at it though

narrow compass
#

Tooltip bugged?

hexed ether
#

great job

dense herald
#

Stop using elvui

narrow compass
#

No.

dense herald
#

Use regular ui

#

Its bad

narrow compass
#

Absolutely not.

dense herald
#

Its bad for pvp

narrow compass
#

I cant do it.

hexed ether
#

elvui isnt bad

dense herald
#

Its so distracting

#

I play the regular ui like a chad

narrow compass
#

That's your opinion.

hexed ether
#

i used it for years but ive heavily modified mine

narrow compass
#

Ok you're better than me.

dense herald
#

I might even install an addon that brings back pre df ui

hexed ether
#

only reason i stopped using elvui is because it bugged my ui and instead of going through the hassle i just let it go

narrow compass
#

One of my favorite parts of WoW has been customizing the UI. Been doing it since Burning Crusade.

hexed ether
#

but i still like it

narrow compass
#

I've luckily been ok with ElVUI and errors but Gladius fucked my shit up bad.

#

Switched to GliadiusEx and its fine

hexed ether
#

i like gladiusex

#

i like its like a modified omnibar

#

sorta like omnicc for enemy frames

#

super useful

narrow compass
#

yeah i feel like it takes the best of a bunch of diff addons and combines it

hexed ether
#

@narrow compass what do you think helped you climb in solo to get your 2100? Do you think your skill increased or inflation of solo? personally i judge myself of where i stand in the ladder as opposed to rating. example: 2v2 2315 when i got it was top 200 but now top 370ish but i know if i play ill be top 200 again.

narrow compass
#

I dont like watching livestreams so I just wanted quick, condensed knowledge

#

and Skillcapped is cheap AF

#

and with the subscription I got a VOD review from Joefernandes which was really helpful.

narrow compass

I'll have to check him out.

#

I watched a few Magnus streams

hexed ether
#

#

theres some tips and tricks you learn along the way that definitely starts to help.

narrow compass
#

For sure

#

one big issue I fixed was my impatience in openers

hexed ether
#

like you just charge in blow all your cds

narrow compass
#

Yeah i no longer leap across the map like a doofus.

#

I still make a lot of little mistakes

hexed ether
#

we all do bro

narrow compass
#

like missing a shockwave

#

or missing a kick

hexed ether
#

one thing i did was unbind asd and just use qwe

#

strafing is best

narrow compass
#

did that forever ago

#

like in WOTLK

#

S key too

#

My biggest issue has always been not being consistent...like not playing enough games.

#

that changed this season 😄

hexed ether
#

playing games is good pratice but analyzing your games at the end of a session is a great way to fix mistakes

narrow compass
#

for sure

hexed ether
#

i keep a notepad and write down what i did wrong

narrow compass

and go gnome.

narrow compass

they're hideous little monsters

woeful solstice
#

jokes aside i think if you're serious about pushing rating currently, you should probably be gnome

#

meta is so root heavy i would fucking snap my keyboard in half if i didnt have escape artist

#

if you just want 1800/2100/2400 it probably wont matter

narrow compass
#

Im just trying to get from 2.1 to 2.4

#

and doing only SS.

woeful solstice
#

yea gnome probably wont make or break that tbh

narrow compass

I didnt think so

woeful solstice

just pump harder

Trying my warrior brethren

woeful solstice

Will do as soon as I get my PC in order

what does it mean when an enemy hp bar has diagonal lines going through it?

I mean what nameplates do you use

balmy dawn

just plater

fierce elm

Shields/Absorbs most likely

#

I aint familiar with plater

balmy dawn
#

only seen it on some enemy players in arena and it basically looks like this(recreation)

#

well it was on a warlock, but i think for absorbs its usually the edges of the bar just glow white

balmy dawn
fierce elm
#

You can take disarm vs fury

balmy dawn
wheat jay
#

Literally that, it's a focus target

#

You click on a target, make focus frame, his nameplate looks like that

balmy dawn
#

but what is a focus? its not necessarily the enemy im targeting right now is it?

wheat jay
#

No, you can make a separate frame on your screen by middle mouse clicking on a gladius frame

#

It's useful to see for example enemy healer frame at all times

#

And you can have macros that target your focus target

they each do about 150k+ dps off the rip while being nearly untouchable for around a minute into the game

evoker cant be slowed or hit and is cc immune

#

rogue stuns disarms evasions vanishes

they both parsing on you and your team

fallen estuary

Cc immune spells paired with evokers toolkit was a mistake

Cc immunity, flight, aura mastery, unslowable

Does billion dmg every second with a channel

so they created a vulnerability and then patched it up with cooldowns

wheat jay
dense herald
#

i lost 150 rating now

Uhdk makes sense to be like survi, can play range but most dmg is done in melee

#

Dh defo needs a new bow spec with 30 yards range

#

Or 25

#

No casts

dense herald
urban skiff
#

for UH what I'd want is them to be melee, but their animations swap to caster animations if the target is outside melee range. And give them 15-20 yard range baseline

#

I know it's a dumb dream

#

but from a raiding perspective, the game would benefit from having a 3rd class of dps. Melee, medium range, long range

wheat jay
#

Bm can have the zoo

urban skiff
#

well that's what survival turned into

gaunt nexus
#

think there was a rumor once that DH will get a 3rd middle range spec with throwing glaives

wheat jay
#

Survi could do with melee/range stance

urban skiff
#

not sure how survival turned into the una-bomber build

wheat jay
urban skiff
#

I mean I know why. Murican game and all but like... Whyyyyy

wheat jay
#

I like it

#

But it would be nice if they went full melee or full range

#

And dh being a ranged spec would be super fun

#

Mobility skills of dh are PERFECT for it too haha

gaunt nexus
#

gonna be like bm hunter on roids

wheat jay
#

Well

#

Yes

#

Mosquito spec lmao

#

But 25 yards would make it a bit less cancerous

urban skiff
#

easy peasy

#

make pets return if the hunter is more than 25 yards away

#

give them something like a stacking buff where pet damage goes up if the pets aren't connected to a target for a while

#

to compensate for people out-ranging the hunter

wheat jay
#

Real

#

Would be nice

#

Would make bm less cancer to face

wheat jay
#

No reason to hate on dh, its just meta now

Look back to shadowlands s1 s2 and dh was your oneshot target

It is what it is
