Tbh i don't look super nice at 100kg and 26% bf. I think 90-93 is the ideal spot for me.

The controls thing he's complaining about lul

urban skiff
#

It's not that bad

#

when you get a feel for it, but it's a major block for people wanting to give it a chance

lavish quest
#

I just charged up a big shot, it did 1/3 the dam of just poking them with the Lance part, and thought this seems dumb

urban skiff
#

Gunlance has 3 ammo types, and they each shift the damage focus of your weapon between slaplance (hitting them), fullburst (unloading clip), and pewpewpew (shooting and reloading)

#

I can't remember world anymore but you want to stake the monster and then shoot the stake to do a lot of damage and it's not apparent that you can do that when you first pick up the weapon. I made it really really far into world before I realized game had combos.

before that I approached the game like dark souls. Then I saw a longsword user do a helmsplitter and fuck I was hooked.

#

Then dualblade did the beyblade shit over the back of the monster.
SnS going unga bunga is when I gave up on bow and manned up

lavish quest
#

So far I've mainly use great sword and charge blade. Lil bit of long sword. And tried a lil gun Lance and the bug stick

urban skiff
#

Charge blade is awesoe, great sword is awesome

#

I don't enjoy long sword in world but it's ok in rise

#

Rise gave rise to some toxic playstyles, like putting down bombs and using their explosion to trigger counter attacks. Kinda stupid

fierce elm
#

Charge blade is amazing

#

I loved the Switchaxe or w.e

#

in Worlds

urban skiff
#

I try to love the swaxe but when i got to it I was kind of filled up from trying to remember all the weapons i played

lavish quest
#

I used charge blade a while, then I swapped back to great sword because big numbers big dopamine

urban skiff
#

Almost nothing feels better than using great sword's great tackle against a divebombing monster to bonk it down

lavish quest
#

I didn't know you could do that

#

I usually just tackle to skip a swing and get to the big flippy bonk faster

slow solstice
#

it does slight stun damage

idle falcon
urban skiff
#

it means you take the damage but you ain't going to get moved around

#

but iirc tackle also has a massive damage reduction so regular and big hits don't hurt much

#

but you still get your ass whooped on damage that's designed to 1-shot you

lavish quest
#

I just run around monsters determined to cut off everything's tail

#

While finding every ledge to jump off and every slight hill to slide jumping attack to get on top of that thang

# pale dew Hi there, is this still going for arms?

I mean, it was super optimized at the time. If it turns out to be wrong you aren't going to be doing much worse than the difference between what a top player was doing and what a top player is doing now.

#

Hope that helps put things into perspective

pale dew

Nice, thx all!

#

just reached 80 will follow that guide

urban skiff
#

you can always cross reference with murlok.io to check if it's wildly off track

rancid granite
#

1600 free tier piece, and conq weapon tokens still a thing though

urban skiff
#

yup

#

But we have 7 charges of catalyst now, so my advice to anyone who wants 2 or 4 set bonus is to quickly grab it via converting bloody token gear.

#

Can get 4 tier pieces that way, then still have 3 charges and free token to get 4 tier piece at conq level later when you have epic everywhere

pale dew
#

Will go for the algari sword, everyone still using it

#

That will be my first move

rancid granite
#

i mean you get free weapon easily >_>

urban skiff
#

you can buy bloody token weapon to carry you until you have 2500 conq

rancid granite
#

^

#

good advice

urban skiff
#

bloody token gear everywhere you can, craft jewelry, honor trinkets, bloody token weapons.

#

On my alts i farm up bloody tokens while levelling via world quests. Super head start

pale dew
#

Lol, ok. So change of plans

Then start swapping in conq pieces with the secondary stats you want

Ascendance bis

urban skiff

personally id make rings first then switch to ascendency once u have full gear, just cus free weps is a massive leap ahead in conquest gear

#

if its a alt and u have a bunch of rng boxes to gamba go for ascendence first if u want

urban skiff
# fickle forge So did you?

The concept of vers is difficult to explain. Yes i did the math.

Vers is amazing because of things you don't see on paper doll or details.

any of u playing PoE 2 btw, going blind atm as witch but next chars guna be a chonky war where i follow a decent build

# fickle forge Can I see your math?

Can you see my math at 00.00 in the night when i have to get up at 4.45?

How about you show me the math that says vers bad and i'll point out all the reasons your favorite streamer is wrong.

Vers is dogshit

#

Only reason it's played is because of dmg reduction

Yes it's a no. Your request is unreasonable and i don't have to entertain it. Just like you can claim (and be wrong) that vers is shit, you'll just have to trust me bro

#

The strength and stamina you have is better than the mastery you don't have yet.

wheat jay
#

Depending on class stats matter more than ilvl

fickle forge
urban skiff
#

Bloody token gear can be farmed while in queue. There's no costs associated with itm

fickle forge
#

Just aim for BiS from the start

wheat jay
#

Dh for example wants mastery, other stats don't matter much, and mastery is more important than ilvl

#

Either way, bis items are bis for a reason

#

He can get those asap

fickle forge
#

If math was king in PvP, we'd be able to sim it, but we can't and it's ran by top players feelcrafting what's best

urban skiff
wheat jay
#

And that means getting ascendance

craggy ermine
#

I have a question for everyone.....

for arena. when you stance swap is it worth switching to a shield and sword? or does that matter anymore?
This is for retail pvp

kind sentinel
#

No need to sword and board anymore

craggy ermine

#

The thing about crafting rings/ neck is that you lose a bit of versatility when you do so. But tbh it doesn’t really matter if you are getting more value from mast/haste for better uptime and damage in burst windows

fickle forge
craggy ermine
fickle forge
wheat jay
#

Doesnt matter

urban skiff
wheat jay
#

Difference is so miniscule your dmg output will suffer more

fickle forge
#

You may as well just chase BiS from the start

#

Weird to dance around between embels

urban skiff
#

Hell if recrafting is such an offensive ordeal, skip the embellishments on jewelry.

Idk how this is difficult

fickle forge
#

Aren't you supposed to be up in 4.5 hours?

craggy ermine
#

xD

#

i'm new to warr pvp just trying to figure out which one of the two specs to go. furry or arms

fickle forge
#

Depends on your goal

#

If you wanna optimise then fury

craggy ermine
#

optomise in which kinda way? for both pvp and pve?

fickle forge
#

I mean PvE and PvP don't overlap at all right now

#

So you can just do fury for PvP and then whatever you want for PvE

craggy ermine
#

ahhh okay

#

so i guess when you say optomise you mean as in diff builds for pvp

fickle forge
#

Fury is just generally stronger right now

#

Arms is fine, but fury better and easier

jovial torrent
#

fury is better overall imo, i hit 2.4 as arms in bg blitz but fury just does more stuff passively

craggy ermine
#

ahhhh okay

#

so it's pretty much furry hits a lot harder rn

wheat jay
#

Fury is easier to deliver on

jovial torrent
#

yeh, and the defense is alot more passive + arms pvp talents are kind of locked in where fury can take disarm without feeling as bad

kind sentinel
#

Made it to 3.1 in blitz and arms feels v bad some games but really good on others idk it’s just so polarizing

fickle forge
#

Fury and arms have the same flexibility for PvP talents though

kind sentinel
#

Ya two are perma locked in, third is more flexible on both specs

craggy ermine
#

thank you for the help everyone!

jovial torrent
#

which do u flex on arms, i see ppl switch out the bladestorm one but i feel like applying ms to everyone at the start of a teamfight is just so strong

fickle forge
#

Dude I decide to play a shuffle for the first time in a millenia

#

And my lobby is triple pala double sham

lavish quest
#

It's just 2.5% of the overall dam you take

kind sentinel
#

Similar in arena, only diff is that when playing into a disc pr/rmp you can drop sharpen since it doesn't do much to rapture and you really just need to be able to stop their goes to win

#

Yo anyone got tips on going against dev evokers? We got a good push going last couple days then we’re getting gatekept only by evoker comps and every other game is an evoker. We’re running warr/sp/hpal

urban skiff
#

It's 4d chess i'm sure they are prepared for so idk what to do then

frank turret
#

Yeah we’ve tried that we get the shroud off on them but they can still kite me like crazy especially if they have a paly that gives them freedom

#

We tried just chain cc’ing the evoker and kill the other dps and got close a few times but after the chain ends he just ramps up and just start pumping into us

#

It might just be our counter idk but today we got 5 games in a row with dev evokers it was insane

thick reef
fierce elm
#

so makes sense

frank turret
fierce elm
#

Honestly a big pain versus only warrior

#

and maybe dk

#

the rest do fine into it

#

Mostly because yall cant keep up and dont do any ranged damage

jovial torrent
#

@thick reef near the start of the season i played on off for a few days to hit 1800 then stopped playing war for a few months, came back capped gear hit 2400 in 111 games total, 64 wins, most losses i didnt lose rating because my mmr was a few hundred above my cr, funnily my queue got shorter the higher my rating got, went from 15 min avg to like 7 min avg once i hit 2k

thick reef
#

111 games total is pretty good. I got my main warr to 1800 in bg blitz and haven’t touched it since so I might just go back and get that to 2400

green wharf
#

DK is pretty darn good in mobility this xpac

halcyon socket
lavish quest
#

Also they can use other stats to ramp their dmg even faster than vers can to make "overcoming" your vers even easier

#

Your math ain't exactly math

urban skiff
# lavish quest Your math ain't exactly math

Oh my god i can't with this nonsense.

They're two players. They have 2x pool of secondary stats. Your one pool of secondary stats affects both their pools once or the full pool twice.

It takes 5% to counter your 2.5%. that's the exact reason Blizzard decided to make vers 2/3 damage and 1/3 reduction.

You're getting 4/3 value from vers but you're reading 2/3.

#

My math is very math. I lack the communications skills to explain it to people who don't grasp this intuitively. But my math is true.

#

I.e. i have no crayons or time to explain.

lavish quest
#

Homie, you're assuming vers is the only stat and factor in the whole game

urban skiff
#

The bigger the gap the more value you get from vers!

#

@fierce elm Send help.

They think i can't math now. I may be dumb as a rock but i know math

fierce elm
#

I am not touching this subject with a ten foot pole

#

I am a dumb wow player who just grabs w.e stats

lavish quest
#

Also you only factor in %.
If it takes 2k vers to get 2% vers but it takes someone else 2k haste to increase their dam by 10%;
You're losing

fierce elm
#

Less thinking more hitting

urban skiff
# lavish quest Also you only factor in %. If it takes 2k vers to get 2% vers but it takes someo...

The gap isn't that wide for any spec.

The only big gap is for some specs where a stat has zero value. Vers is not one of those stats on account of how it works.

Your thinking is true but lacks practical application. Vers is extremely powerful and undervalued. It's probably why some newbies seem to be doing really well with some weird secondary stats. They accidentally went all in on vers by buying conq instead of crafting.

Fury is one of the best candidates to make use of vers gap in season1 because of the stat budget on 2h.

#

Vers is undervalued because pvp tends to be guided by how people feel and not rigerous testing. when there's limited resources people don't experiment, and gear alone doesn't shift anyone high enough to make top players wonder and start feeling inspired.

"Vers is a noob trap" is the reason you don't see high vers, led by top players who aren't going to challenge that and have no reason to challenge it. If everyone has the same vers then vers is essentially a dead stat.

If everyone had 0 vers they would feel and play mostly the same. If you came in with 35% you'd be a juggernaut.

#

Widen the gap.
Don't DR vers.
Reap the benefits others don't.

Fury is always strongest early season when they get a very real vers advantage.

#

I know i meme a lot, but this is something i think i know enough about.

green wharf
#

what is this NERD talk

#

we just get purple and hit stuff

wheat jay
#

fury having advantage early is kinda cap

#

fury has advantage because its tuned to be strong

#

that's all it is, for every spec in the game

#

real vers advantage is dumb cuz every class has vers advantage, every class scales the same with vers, every class has the same gear progression pacing

green wharf
#

Zercher said a lot of people run bombs in isle of conquest, run 5 now and no one did

wheat jay
#

vers is also not undervalued, other stats are just better for pure dps, so you get vers on every pvp item, then you go for whatever stat you need, like haste or mastery

lavish quest
#

Big dam > Little dam

#

The math is simple

#

Also you can't just not DR vers. If you stack vers, it will be DR'd

wheat jay
#

ye

#

ngl i preferred pvp resilience pvp power

#

you just had that on your gear

#

it worked like vers

#

but you still had normal stats to play around with

jovial torrent
#

@halcyon socket i played arms but u probs play fury pretty much the same, go to the biggest teamfights usually try get a big bladestorm off at start of flag map teamfights im almost always top 3 dmg in the game, pressure their casters like lock priest and try switch to your teams current target, MW are also good to switch onto somtimes

#

i try kill efc before they get past mid of map or help escourt our flag back with thunderclap slows and damage

# lavish quest I love how all the math involves 0 math

Before numbers you apply base logic on which to do numbers on. (This is essential in math)

When you reject the base assumptions there's no reason to give any numbers. And when you don't explain why you reject the assumptions then sorry, i don't respect your response.

If vers was bad people wouldn't be using it to begin with.

Vers gains effectiveness the bigger the gap between you and them.

Math is math.

fierce elm
#

who is this dude underestimating vers though

#

dont literally every spec run like 20% vers minimum

#

or am I on crack

urban skiff
rancid granite

so ive been doing it right all along lingering around 30% vers?

#

what about higher than 30% when the dr kicks in

lavish quest

Build stats bad = godlike build

urban skiff
lavish quest
#

Somehow

fickle forge
fierce elm
#

I mean, speaking from both ret and outlaw, ret just wants as much vers as possible

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

Outlaw aims specifically for a number that allows for better GCD management on haste, crit for BtE buff and flat mastery

urban skiff
#

Other stats give more damage. Right..?

DR important in pvp

But so is dam

So you get DR till you don't need more

This is the gayest the chat has been and that’s not saying alot

# lavish quest DR important in pvp

The only thing that matters is the effective healing it takes to kill you. Vs the effective healing it takes to kill them.

It diminishes at 30%

Auto correct will end me

fickle forge
#

It's straight up way more offense to go other stats than it is to go versa, and some specs and comps want that, while hitting versa as their low stat budget for minor defensive gain

fierce elm
#

So then saying versa is a bad stat is flat out wrong

urban skiff
lavish quest
#

Blizzard coded in you get less stats past 30%

sturdy trellis

#

So if you get 100 vers, it gives you 90 past 30%

rancid granite

so is that bad or not though

#

how much vers do we need thats the question

#

and then how much haste crit and mastery

Vers on every piece

but shuff faster

with considerably worse players at the top of it

It takes an eternity to climb in blitz

blitz is "easier" if u think u are a hard stuck 1700 player

the second u hit like 1400 in blitz u start gaining 20 cr a game and its a bit more rng if u win or lose

prime salmon

is raging blows or bloodthirst higher prio?

wheat jay

blitz is by far the easiest to climb in

shuff or arena just much faster if u have hands

rancid granite

wth to 1800 only though?

few bad games 1700-1800 in rbgb

felt like 2100-2200 in blitz

1400 games in blitz worse than 2400 3s or 2900 blitz

urban skiff
#

15% of sudden death heals isn't a ton

green wharf
#

but its better than 0%

urban skiff
#

colossus takes 5% less damage passively.

#

So you heal for 5% of the damage you take

green wharf
#

and it is crap still

urban skiff
#

and every minute you heal for 12% of your max hp

green wharf
#

good luck surviving that much

urban skiff
#

I mean, how is 15% of a sudden death proc helping you more?

green wharf
#

if you dont have a healer you do nothing

urban skiff
#

I don't agree with your assessment. Slayer does not have more survivability

green wharf
#

because sudden death proc all the time

urban skiff
#

don't make me look up the PPM on Sudden Death

#

there are like 50 different versions on wowhead because of legacy talents

#

1.7 PPM

#

1.0 pvp multiplier

#

ok it's 1.7 + haste so realistically you get 1.7*1.2 PPM = 2 procs per minute

#

obviously you also get one per 3 slayer strikes but I don't think that's a lot? Idk, I haven't touched slayer arms.

#

7 PPM + haste

#

so that's 8,4 PPM. divided by 3 is 3 PPM

#

2 + 3 ppm sudden death

#

let's say we execute crit for 1m to be generous

#

and 30% crit chance.

#

Over 2 minutes you get 7 hits and 3 crits.

700k hits * 7
+
1.1m crits * 3

= total sudden death damage: nice round almost 5m damage.

15% of that, assuming no overheal: self heal for 735k

#

Colossus procs veteran vitality twice over the 2 minutes. (you can theoretically get 3 procs in a 2 minute spam but this isn't scaleable for sustained fighting)

sharp meteor
#

slayer doesnt avoid dmg or heal for anything

#

colossus has bigger ip and 5% wall

#

so ye

urban skiff
#

How much hp does arms have these days? 8m?

#

that's 960k hp every proc.

#

But you also take 5% less damage so your effective health is actually 8400000 and the effective healing is actually 1260000

#

@green wharf so colossus with veteran vitality has more self healing by a huge margin.

#

add on top of that, that colossus healing doesn't rely on hitting someone

#

Someone feel free to tell me what I missed. I assumed both builds run the same talents, maybe slayer has room for bitter immunity and pain and gain and second wind while the other doesn't.

#

I went with 1m crits so you can scale up the healing easily and I'm pretty sure 8m hp is low for arms in end season gear

urban skiff
#

proccing it is huge heal and IP is decent but I don't see it increasing effective hp that much

sharp meteor
urban skiff
#

It's a 12% hp heal every minute

sharp meteor
#

how do u come in here and post nonsense

#

talent is awful before damp

urban skiff
#

why would you play into damp

#

also i can't find anywhere that says it doesn't affect ignore pain as well

#

But the text sure alludes to it

#

I'm open to being wrong here, idk how to test it without having to record a game going deep enough into damp that I can read a difference in IP value before getting hit by someone

#

But it could explain why arms are feeling squishy in shuffle and feeling better in Blitz and arena, no?

sharp meteor
#

nothin to test u never play vitality ever

urban skiff
#

miss me with nonsense non-arguments, please.

#

Do math or show me something of value

sharp meteor
#

why it wont help u win a game

#

ur trying to theorycraft something worthless

#

talent is awful and worth playing in no situations move on

sharp meteor
#

because you might give somebody the idea that it's worth picking (it isn't)

sharp meteor
#

no output

#

undertuned

#

there could be 1 talents on a node one gives 1% dmg the other gives 5% dmg and you'd still post 10k words on how you think there's a chance one could be viable

#

for some reason

urban skiff
#

Why is 12% of max hp heal worse than 20% extra on ignore pain (affected by dampening)?

#

How much are you really using ignore pain?

sharp meteor
urban skiff
#

can't lose because I don't get to play

#

If you stop this from getting personal, that would be great

#

I treat you like an adult, I suggest you pretend to do the same

sharp meteor
#

if you pressed ignore pain you'd have a healer

urban skiff
#

if veteran vitality procs you have a healer who's temporarily not healing

#

I'd definitely pick 20% IP on prot but for arms I think veteran vitality isn't as bad a choice as people make it out to be

sharp meteor
#

It is.

You 'll catch flack for anything that makes you stand out.

If you're strong you'll hear comments about "thought you were bodybuilding" anytime you take more than 3 seconds to open a lid or anything.

See if your union offers a mentorship program where you get paired with someone experienced who wants to share a better career path.

Goal number one is finding a solid tactic to find potential places of employment, so you don't have to wait for job openings. You're in a solid industry so being proactive will net you job offers.

Expect to not spend long in your first job. 1-3 years max. You will always be the new guy / young kid and you will not be able to negotiate a salary increase worth shit compared to what a place offers new hires.
