like u trap off a cc roughly off dr

fierce elm
#

If he is a new player to PvP entirely Warrior is outright easier than Hunter

sharp meteor
#

Ehhh.

sharp meteor
#

BM always better results.

#

Even no trapping.

It's aight you'll learn

Naa blocked jarvis.gif

#

Warrior has to think about so many things in arena its crazy

#

such as

#

Hit something, hit something, hit something

#

Its crazy difficult

arctic knot
#

i just followed ur advice and won a skirmish

#

who wuldve thought

#

kept hitting em

fierce elm
#

gaming

#

Your best bet is just doing BGs for honor however

sharp meteor
#

walk backwards do what the barbed shot weakaura says

fierce elm
#

Skirmishes arent valuable in learning Arena

#

or even PvP

sharp meteor
#

ya skirms only useful for checking if keybinds/macros/ui works

boreal veldt
#

ye i used 2 whole skirms to legit just adjust my ui

urban skiff
fierce elm
#

I have taken the path of just deciding to ignore stuff than engage in it outside of commenting on it right now

#

Either I can argue that Warriors are fucking stupid as a Warrior player and praise hunter players for actually needing to set stuff up for hours on end

#

or I can accept that everyone can have their own opinion

rancid granite
#

what if their opinion is wrong?

fierce elm
#

Then they arent going to change anyways lmao

rancid granite
#

:D

urban skiff
#

drop rate from boxes has definitely increased

fierce elm
#

How many times have you met someone with a wrong opinion who still refused to change after being taught they are wrong

sharp meteor
#

Accept that some people can't and won't learn.

I feel like pvp has always been a school of hard knocks

fierce elm
#

I got one stone to sell

sharp meteor
#

And they're usually where they should be.

urban skiff
sharp meteor
urban skiff
#

might be a side effect of some other change, like a reduction in drop chance on the crafting recipes

boreal veldt
#

i think i got 2-3 stones all S1

sharp meteor
#

which is more than I got in all of Forged.

urban skiff
#

The price on it is being weird right now

boreal veldt
#

I ain't got 1 from this season yet, all my luck is being used crit fishing demolish

urban skiff
#

Cycling between 5k and 4.6k is very little compared to the massive swings last week

rancid granite
#

this week feels so bad if you dont have your weapon upgrade 😔

#

spent it on holy 1h/shield, so now ret is screwed for like another month isnt it

urban skiff
#

last season i got 3

#

I think I made 300k on pvp boxes last season

#

was a good season

sterile moth
#

Dang I don’t remember ever getting a bloodstone from a box

sharp meteor
#

Also man these green heraldry items are so useless after the first few days

#

worth nothing can't cook anything useful

urban skiff
#

I lost 200k trading green heraldy

#

I was caught holding the bag

sterile moth
#

You should be able to roll them into an upgrade

#

Diablo style

urban skiff
#

should be used for crafting sub 70 levelling pvp gear

#

one piece of absolutely secret tech right now when levelling is buying the green crafted pvp trinkets

#

when you hit level 70

urban skiff
#

fickle forge
#

I found my argument to go roll MM

slow solstice
sterile moth
#

wtf

urban skiff
#

get +12% mainstat, +10% stam, like 4k mainstat while doing world content

#

for 4k gold

#

levelling becomes very pleasant

sterile moth
#

That’s a great tip Zerch

#

Thank you

urban skiff
#

🙂

#

want another tip?

sterile moth
#

Always

urban skiff
#

You'll have to buy me dinner first and maybe pull my hair to get it

lmao

#

how cringe is warr in wpvp starting a fight, losing, then going to the edge of the map to glide down cuz he's evoker

#

xD

urban skiff
#

another 2k gold

arctic knot
#

any recommendation for the first things to spend honor on, or just get everything honor?

rancid granite
#

look up what people are going on murlok, so you can get bloody token items, conquest items, and free weapon, then just spend honor on the rest since itll be like 5k only if that

#

do the weeklies in dornogal / undermined (western part has 4 weeklies with a lot of loot)

urban skiff
#

Weapons and trinkets. Skip buying neck and rings since you can craft them very eaely

spice hornet
#

epic bg weekly is such pain, wish it was just 2 games no matter what if you win/loss

#

so boring especially as a warriro

#

are people back to radiant power over depths?

rancid granite
true tiger
#

bro

#

tf is that

#

why am i slowed in bladestorm

#

is this a fkn bug

spice hornet
#

mage overpower barrier does it

boreal veldt
#

mage barrier

spice hornet
#

and there is a hunter hero talent proc that does it as well

#

i would say iots a bug

true tiger
#

is that a fkn joke

#

we already cant reach mages

#

XDDD

spice hornet
#

lol yep

#

its undispellable too

#

i beleive its physical

#

mage needs dat you know. they already have trouble snaring people

#

think of the poor mages

brazen rock
#

the sentinel hunter root doesnt even dr with itself

#

had the joy of a shuffle lobby with 3 hunters

true tiger
#

nice

#

i love it

spice hornet
#

yeah i still dont understand why that exists

true tiger
#

fuck that game

spice hornet
#

like non-dring roots

#

like what in the fk

true tiger
#

lovig it

#

im slowed in bladestorm

#

vs worst spec for me

brazen rock
#

hit one, get rooted for 3 seconds, hit the survi, get rooted for 3 seconds, get trap rooted, get binding shotted

true tiger
#

thats why i barelly can reach hunters when its bm and mm

#

in same team

#

ggs

boreal veldt
#

i like bm as col i just los with healer and get stacks off pets before i go in

#

my team doesn't like it

true tiger
#

but hey

#

mages have + slow

#

works on ability that shouldnot be slowed

#

but hey wars need nerf

spice hornet
#

is radiant power doing more dam than authority of the depths now? i noticed warriors at the top are swapping to it, i havent played since week 1 rlly

true tiger
#

rly doesnot matter bro

#

its 1% back and forth

spice hornet
#

ah

true tiger
#

u can even get 1 on each wep XD

#

if ur fury

true tiger
#

its also haste v s mastery

boreal veldt
#

i see folks using either or

true tiger
#

some fury go haste some go mastery

sand sundial
#

I get like +%30 master minimum then go haste

copper fox
#

No fury goes haste

#

You’re looking at people who play both

#

So gear early for both

#

Not optimized for either

wispy knoll
#

@copper fox hiii

#

fury wants mostly mastery/vers for pvp right?

#

high haste does feels awkard for fury pvp

sharp meteor
#

Ye

#

if u giga high haste can always just play powerful enrage

spice hornet
#

Be careful listening to Kennie hes a prot main at his core and he will lead you astray so you join him

wispy knoll
#

i like low apm for pvp tbh

#

if its roughly similar damage ,low apm>high apm all day

urban skiff
#

apparently powerful is multiplicative bonus to damage, not just additive

wispy knoll
#

anyon know why

#

fury and arms are roughly similar tier in solo shuffle

#

but arms is much better in 2v2s than fury?

true tiger
#

i hate this game man

#

why is it always mage lobbys

spice hornet
wispy knoll
#

how do u guys deal with ww?

#

ya it is

#

anythign we can do during their conduit?

true tiger
wispy knoll
#

shit seems op

sharp meteor
true tiger
#

run to ur healer

#

or jump away

wispy knoll
#

cant even outrun that shit

#

ya

true tiger
#

jump

#

make sure to kick lignhtning

wispy knoll
#

theres no way we can 1v1 a ww right?

#

even a 2400 glad fury would lose to a 1400 onetrick ww

#

in a pure 1v1

true tiger
#

1v1 war sucks

#

ass

wispy knoll
#

ya it was good during 11.0 beta

#

loll

true tiger
#

i playted ww 1 dat

#

dueled 2.5k war

#

killed him

#

told him to delete game

#

and dipped

wispy knoll
#

ya

#

ww loses to mw tho

#

1v1

#

nothing can beat healer atm , in any 1v1s

urban skiff
wispy knoll
true tiger
#

ifu want duel specs

urban skiff
#

and i want to say dampening is higher in shuffle

true tiger
#

go ret ww

#

or rogue

wispy knoll
#

does this stat distribution looks good?

sharp meteor
#

Not one with hands, anyways.

true tiger
#

10% haste

#

rest mastery

#

solid af

wispy knoll
#

ya i mean even a r1 fury would lose to a 1400 windwalker

#

lets say the 1400 windwalker is hardstuck, but he knows the basic combo

#

our grapple doenst do shit vs windwalker right?

#

like if i grapple weapon during their conduit

#

i dont think it would affect the damage lol

#

@sharp meteor @true tiger i was thinking

#

spell reflecting slicing wind lol

#

but need to react fast/and can't be stucked in previous gcd

spice hornet
#

Ww damage is too high and their defensives last too long for a warrior to ever win that matchup

wispy knoll
#

ya

#

blizzard did nerf touch of karma shield right?

#

lol

#

its an irrelevant nerf in pvp

#

lol

urban skiff
#

Man i feel bad for warriors

wispy knoll
#

is fury kinda doggo shit

#

11.1 now

#

with battle trance removed

sharp meteor
#

Fury probs next in line to get nerfed.

elfin surge
#

magnet said fury #5 melee

sharp meteor
#

He really doesn't seem to like being called that.

#

Also that doesn't stop Warr from being nerfed you know this.

elfin surge
#

does he not

#

idk i call him magneto

sharp meteor
#

Imma call him maggie and get hate crimed

elfin surge
#

ya ur a furry prot warrior main

jovial torrent
#

problem is most other classes have a auto snare thats really powerful even our slow we have to spend a gcd on is bad

#
  • lots of ppl with freedoms kind of makes it hard for us to stick
#

usually dh or ww would trade that for being squishy or not as high dps but they kind of have all 3 atm,

sharp meteor
#

I feel like warr is kind of doomed by design

#

it's too oppressive to bad players becasue it has to do giga damage if in melee range

#

but fury dmg profile is healthier in the sense you can play reactively to it versus arms when it's viable which just splits your skull in half with a global for 35% into another for 40%.

#

Necro banner should be a choice node with ava or somethin

jovial torrent
#

im consistantly top 3 dmg in every rbg and i feel like my kill pressure is pretty meh cus ppl can just dash or by the time i go to press execute gcd ppl are above the threshold

sharp meteor
#

Prot being better at executin people than arms was crackin me up last seas

#

watch arms warr charge a guy at half health he dips into execute range gets executed twice then heals up

#

i hop on somebody that's struggling and they dead

urban skiff
#

Execute needs to apply sharpen blade, change my mind

#

Make it a PROBLEM that you got hit by execute

median lynx
#

Or just make Execute like WW's execute where it's a guranteed insta death

rancid granite
#

zercher needs to cook up a warrior 1v1 build

sharp meteor
#

that'd just be prot

urban skiff
#

Also Kennie is right

boreal veldt
#

our 1v1 is just spear + go and if they don't die, gl

rancid granite
#

i assumed it'd just be fury with a couple choice node difference but prot is still a good answer

urban skiff
#

What are you even going to 1v1?

boreal veldt
rancid granite
jovial torrent
#

i just feel so useless in temple

#

smacking ppl who hold orbs and they just wonr die

#

yet i have orb and flop

median lynx
#

...Wait, question thats both dumb and legit...

Is the best spec for farming Sparks of War Prot Warrior then-?

rancid granite
#

i mean in big spark farming groups just AoE, die, repeat anyway

sharp meteor
#

Yeah.

#

Assuming solo or without a healer.

sharp meteor
median lynx
#

Damn I wish I realized that sooner

#

Also bring back Gladiator stance as a PVP talent you cowards

jovial torrent
#

what do u drop for deathwish , commander?

sharp meteor
#

Warr is honestly useless on almost every map. Like, it's not bad but it doesn't really do anything except okay pve dmg to whatever's nearby.

#

Picking orbs feels so troll.

#

Unless you're Prot

jovial torrent
#

just getting tilted from smacking someone to 20% then boop back to 100

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

Like in a pinch you can leap from mid to grab an orb before enemy gets it but still feels eh

boreal veldt
sharp meteor
#

Ye.

#

Dude I miss leap into dragon charge on kotmogu

jovial torrent
#

problem is u then get gripped/nudged/rooted 6 different times

sharp meteor
#

owned so much

sharp meteor
rancid granite
jovial torrent
#

dh rogue ww are just better at it

sharp meteor
#

Nobody knows what their job is in blitz until kind of high rating so like

#

kotmogu is often just no picking

#

cos people dislike dying

median lynx
#

Wait so is the whole thing with Warr is that it's good in Arena's but mediocre in Battlegrounds?

boreal veldt
#

i got flammed by a hunt because my dps was so low but i gapped everyone in objective points, blitz itself is troll

jovial torrent
#

its like top 1/4 in most things

#

not amazing not bad

urban skiff
#

or feral

median lynx
#

So I didn't make a mistake maining Warrior as someone who rarely plays arenas?

rancid granite
#

everyone is fine in battle grounds cept rogues have the edge afaik

urban skiff
#

Idk, on feral I never really feel like I can't handle whatever is in front of me

rancid granite
#

warrior is viable everywhere friend, just not 1v1's like a rogue would

boreal veldt
sharp meteor
#

cos prots better for most casual stuff

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

like solo bgs wpvp

#

any spec fine in blitz but arms/fury both sort of, uh

#

idk how to describe but warr soft of soft impact without duo

#

its hard to be bad at but u also dont rly swing anything

median lynx
#

Another dumb question which I probably already know the answer is if Hekili is fine for PVP as it makes a lot of classes I could never play just cus of their rotation easier

median lynx
rancid granite
sharp meteor
#

not to mention pvp stuff always changing

sharp meteor
#

i find prot a lot more fun if i dont have a healer for w/e im doin

jovial torrent
#

furys been ok im 2500 mmr atm, would be having same problems as arms

median lynx
#

It isn't just a stagnant rotation

sharp meteor
#

it's still bad for pvp in those regards tho

median lynx
#

sorry

sharp meteor
#

esp interrupts

boreal veldt
#

shield mogs are always goated

median lynx
#

Blowing people up and being melee, so I ain't playing Hunter

sharp meteor
#

WArr generally is more throughput based

median lynx
#

I'd only play a ranged if they just shit out slows like Frost

sharp meteor
#

fury has absurd burst rn but probs nerfed soon

jovial torrent
#

problem is u do ur big rampage, get someone low then they get kept above execute range during micro stuns

sharp meteor
#

You just always be doin' damage.

#

Fury is rping as a BM hunter pet.

jovial torrent
#

playing thane , tc slaps

median lynx
#

Well I'm arms rn (despite the name, I'm not paying blizzard for a name change) despite knowing Arms is more utility and sustained cus I heard Arms is better for BGs than Fury

#

cus of Utility or somethin

boreal veldt
#

Mmm, i'd argue fury and arms fufil the same role in bgs

rancid granite
#

spin node do dam

boreal veldt
#

the utility angle is kinda overstated

median lynx
#

Also cus I already had Arms at 1k rating, and wanted to unlock the Classic PVP Warrior stuff so

median lynx
spice hornet
#

And is somewhat tankier

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

We aren't glass.

median lynx
#

Unless I'm only Colossus, and in Defense Stance

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

That's just lack of dmg foresight which kind of comes with time.

rancid granite
sharp meteor
median lynx
#

Why not just say 'Turtle'

sharp meteor
#

Well, it's the term that's used.

rancid granite
#

I had the same question not long ago LOL

sharp meteor
median lynx
#

cus I thought "Spin" meant go from objective to objective

rancid granite
#

WoW also came up with terms like twinks, so, yeah

median lynx
#

Like if I wasin AB, and someone told me "Spin" I'd just assume they meant go in a 360 between the bases--

rancid granite
#

i thought it was a warrior term at first lol

median lynx
median lynx
urban skiff
#

What the heck do afflics do when they're bursting

#

I can't figure out when i'm supposed to play careful

median lynx
#

But yeah I was hopinh Hekili would be usable in PVP cus of how I wanna play multiple different classes since I'm a casual most the time, and I was thinking Feral druid but the one thing that deters me is its rotations being complicated most the time. And button bloat

jovial torrent
#

unreal, i have a afk priest in my bg game, why can he be on other team

boreal veldt
urban skiff
median lynx
#

Maybe I'll find someone who made a vid that's "Feral Rotation for dummies" like I have for Asass, Arms and WW

sharp meteor
sharp meteor
#

Spinning as warr is what I just spent 10 mins doing which was making sure nobody clicked my flag at bs.

median lynx
sharp meteor
sharp meteor
sharp meteor
#

YEs.

rancid granite
median lynx
#

Cus I'm already comfortable with Warr, and PVP to a degree so thats kinda why I wanna leave the comfort zone

median lynx
#

most of the time at least

rancid granite
#

not really, just pick pvp spec from murlok, go do some delvin

#

while delving set up skillbar, read skills, practice rotation

jovial torrent
#

what is matchmaking doing

rancid granite
#

can get a bit tough so you can use cc etc

median lynx
#

skillbar?

jovial torrent
#

sorted by rating

rancid granite
#

hotbar, whatever :p

median lynx
#

are those the action bars that have just skills for you to track easier?

urban skiff
median lynx
#

or do you mean stuff like TMW

rancid granite
median lynx
#

Ok I guess

boreal veldt
median lynx
#

At least Delves aren't that annoying anymore

urban skiff
#

Been climbing to 1600rating and 2500conq with my wife and the dummy informs me NOW that she's been wearing s1 gear

median lynx
#

Normally what I did was just beat up the training dummies til it's in the muscle memory

rancid granite
#

👎

boreal veldt
rancid granite
#

delves can get to be 'difficult' so itll help teach you like, defense and healing etc

urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

how predictable the team with a 300 rating disadvantage gets slammed , hmmm

#

matchmaking being unkind tonight

median lynx
#

I always found that rated was just rigged as hell

sharp meteor
#

one of the top 10 players

#

mmr slides all over the place

jovial torrent
#

there was a guy with 2 games played in my 2500 game

#

had green weps

sharp meteor
#

my rogues like 3050 with 8 games or somethin

green wharf
#

so, crit bad stat confirmed ? clueless

median lynx
#

Btw a system I've been using is to not buy green weapons, but to wait til my first BG win, and buy 1 purple crafting reagent to craft order purple crafted weapons

Is that a good system or am I high

sharp meteor
#

Because we get free weapons at 2500 conq earned.

median lynx
fierce elm
#

The system he is using is buying Conquest heraldries oh no

rancid granite
#

crafted = more stats less vers

median lynx
#

Also I don't really wanna wait til 2500 conq just for weapons since the greens are stupid expensive

sharp meteor
#

Yeah, crit is terrible.

urban skiff
#

The answer is that it's complicated

#

Your goal isn't to have maximum dps

sharp meteor
#

No, it's just terrible.

urban skiff
#

Your goal is to have the highest burst in the shortest interval

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

Crit hasn't been good since, like, Crimson.

#

Or Shadowlands.

rancid granite
sharp meteor
#

Like wep might be 1000 vers 1000 mastery vs 1500 vers and 500 mastery

rancid granite
#

missives you can choose what stats you want ie haste/vers vs mastery/vers, and yeah that

sharp meteor
#

but we can bounce stats around elsewhere

#

there's no situation where you ever craft wep unless you don't care about setting yourself behind a few weeks

boreal veldt
urban skiff
median lynx
#

Ok cus I remember posting an Algari greatsword and ppl said Conq wouldn't be better than it so now I'm getting mixed reviews

sharp meteor
#

They're both viable options but wasting your heraldries at this stage of the season is always bad.

urban skiff
#

Honor gear has static non-vers and the vers scales up, while the conq gear has more vers than other secondary effect, but they scale equally

#

It's so annoying

sharp meteor
#

Because you get a free weapon.

#

Ascension and whatever the vers wep emb aren't really good as focusing lens just giga

#

so crafting weps doesn't rly offer anything

rancid granite
#

new season, currency is capped

sharp meteor
#

and it's bad early season

#

so

median lynx
#

You get a free weapon at 2500 conq which can take forever...

green wharf
#

the only time i ever used crit was with frost dk last season

sharp meteor
#

I got like 2k conq today on 2 chars

fierce elm
#

You litearlly just farm it passively

green wharf
#

but it was like basic bitch 13%

median lynx
verbal tangle
sharp meteor
#

Idk few crates few bgs. I could've finished it sooner if I just queued some 2s

sharp meteor
green wharf
#

you do sparks of war and some of the weekly pvp quests, and sit around a map getting crates

#

easy conq farm

sharp meteor
#

ascension+banding might be okay but probs just go with focusing lens

median lynx
#

Cus I dont have a lot of gaming stamina to just que and que and que. Getting to 1800 took so much out of me especially

sharp meteor
#

tldr crafting wep bad bad bad until conq uncapped no exceptions

#

but in the end doesnt matter cos conq uncapped in month and a half or two

#

and seasons last 6 months

rancid granite
#

thus don't be in a rush

#

:)

copper fox
#

IM IN A RUSH

sharp meteor
rancid granite
#

i no-lifed 1800 and delves myself now im sore and tired

median lynx
#

I just don't like the gearing phase of playing PvP cus I'd rather just be able to play it (and have it actually playable) on the go and not spend hours just to get greens

sharp meteor
#

when balance is in shambles ladder not giga inflato

rancid granite
#

i shouldnt have rushed

sharp meteor
rancid granite
#

gearing is easy as heck

fierce elm
#

that wasn't helpful with Legion templates being ass

sharp meteor
#

Gearing has never been this fast and easy.

rancid granite
#

easiest its ever been is it not?

#

ok yeah

#

:b

green wharf
#

nah i rushed 1.8 on me war on day one, so i dont need to q with it ever again okayge

fierce elm
#

and something Blizzard can easily put in and make it level and play

sharp meteor
#

Gearing is so fast everybody fotm rerolls on cd

rancid granite
median lynx
sharp meteor
#

tuning gonna be out tomorrow they're gonna giga buff ret and unholy and everybody gonna fotm over to those

fierce elm
#

Queue BG blitz or Solo shuffle

#

ez honor and conq

green wharf
sharp meteor
#

Conquest lazy method is join crate farm group.

#

Fast way is 2s or 3s spam but this requires friends

copper fox
#

Watch the demo lock buff come in

median lynx

#

wives make it slow

median lynx
rancid granite
# green wharf no

man i feel healer mains now, going 3-3 or 4-2 and getting nothing for rating felt so bad lmao; but doing it on dps i got 1800 so quick

sharp meteor
median lynx
#

No we're both Americans

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

Ya so does everybody else so

green wharf
#

i cant stand afflic, demo was rpetty great last season

median lynx
#

We had to grind my Ret to 1500 in 2s with us both being DPS. It sucked

sharp meteor
#

u sit around for half hour finding healer lose twice they leave gg

fierce elm
#

Ret and 2s what the fuck

sharp meteor
#

ret 2s can be aight

median lynx
sharp meteor
#

warr ret 2s not so much

median lynx
#

not WW

fierce elm
#

Ret and 2s what the fuck

sharp meteor
#

also bad

#

xd

#

Man idk if I buy 2hs or 1h and shield.

median lynx
#

Thats what happens when you were a Ret main and your friend was a DH main

green wharf
fierce elm
#

and go slam 3s

median lynx
#

I never did

green wharf
#

not so great

fierce elm
#

takes some time

median lynx
#

Idk if it was cus I was Ret, or cus I wasn't mega geared, but ppl never let me in or joined us

green wharf
#

but that was my luck

is my thought

green wharf
#

Need at least some shuffle or blitz ranking to get considered

fierce elm
#

Shuffle kek

#

Blitz kek

median lynx
#

Also random side track, I'm so fucking glad PVP gear crafts don't need the Sparks (or whatever they're called now) anymore holy crap that was annoying

fierce elm
#

you mean free rating

green wharf
fierce elm
#

free as fuck

median lynx
#

...Well I just remembered I did buy a Conq 1-hander with one of my tokens on Warrior so I might try Prot just to be a clown

copper fox
#

@sharp meteor you buy 1h and shield

#

Your character doesn’t make sense otherwise

#

So whats better then, Slayer Arms or Col Arms

sharp meteor
#

Fury.

median lynx
#

...I shoulda seen that coming yknow what fair

jovial torrent
#

just tried slayer fury , felt miserable compared to thane

sharp meteor
#

Where's the atake meme

median lynx
#

I got to 1800 on my Arms I don't need to play it no more

boreal veldt
#

there it is

fierce elm
#

Slayer Fury and thane fury have minimal differences

#

acting like its a huge different spec over here

#

like it doesnt come down to the same basic stuff

sharp meteor
sharp meteor
green wharf
#

i made this, cause both specs only have one viable option of hero spec

#

since season 1

sharp meteor
#

yeah lmao

fierce elm
#

No no no guys, Slayer feels TERRIBLE compared to thane lmao

#

I feel USELESS

green wharf
#

thats cuz you dont have hair

fierce elm
#

sits 50/50 on ladder 🤔

wheat jay
#

Same argument i had with kargish about colossus and slayer

sharp meteor
#

slayer with bad target selection and spacin does legit nothin

wheat jay
#

ITS THE SAME SHIT

fierce elm
#

colo and slayer arms has one difference

wheat jay
#

Cuz you dont even press demo

fierce elm
#

and that is that you dont press Execute as colo

wheat jay
#

You keep stacks for more OP dmg

green wharf
#

colossus is worse cause less bladestorm okayge

#

and everyone will know you are cringe if you play colossus

boreal veldt
#

:[

sharp meteor
#

Triple down on cringe and play prot.

#

Beat in the skull of every fury and arms warr

boreal veldt
#

idk why i'm mad at that when my entire build is riddled w/ cringe

green wharf
#

imagine playing prot and not playing thane

#

the giga chad spec

sharp meteor
#

thane prot so chadded in bgs

#

so madge they nerfed us by 20%

#

twice

#

spec was almost half as good as rogue

green wharf
#

you tclap and kill invisible rogues and druids, there is no better feeling than that

rancid granite
urban skiff
#

barely hit 1600 MMR and everything is afflic + healer

#

what is up with all the warlocks all of a sudden

rancid granite
#

i mean im not playing arms even though i keep saying i would but you can still play arms

green wharf
#

even wpvp is hard with prot now

#

people used to see me shield and run away in the other direction, now they are being bold

boreal veldt
#

thats how i feel about disc priests

#

i see one and just say "whats the point"

jovial torrent
#

what do u guys prefer, powerful enrage for damage, or frenzied enrage for 15% haste 10% movespeed

rancid granite
#

slayer/frenzied thane/powerful

jovial torrent
#

how come thane powerful over frenzied

#

just cus thane is more aoe?

green wharf
#

once i a disc tried to attack me as a prot, after 20m he gave up and let me kill him keks

green wharf
#

ye

urban skiff
#

my experience with disc in world trying to kill my prot is that they eventually just try and run away or go to a spot where they can mindcontrol you off

#

this is what you save dragon charge for

rancid granite
#

but i feel powerful can work fine with both anyway?

#

i asked the same question never got much of an answer; tried out both a lot

#

didn't notice a difference really

urban skiff
jovial torrent
#

yeh, ive played a bit of both so not really sure, trying some frenzied atm , thinking maybe with extra gcd i can just pump out mroe dps

#

than the actual dmg boost

rancid granite
#

i end up doing it for the thematics and roleplay it fits well :)

urban skiff
#

Take frenzied if you need the movement speed and powerful if you want to be able to do something for an extra global before getting enrage again

#

also keep in mind if you try to play around the extra 1 sec enrage: Rampage and onslaught benefits from the enrage they proc. BT does not benefit from applying enrage

#

but tldr: Don't worry about it, if you aren't at your potential just play whichever feels better and makes you play more

median lynx
#

Friendship ended with Arms now Fury is my new best friend

jovial torrent
#

i feel like my game tonight have been lost by random decisions, like ppl just randomly leaving eots flag in mid while we were pushign them back to try steal their base, but then we wipe mid due to being 2 man down

median lynx
#

...Guys do I buy a purple shield or more purple gear

#

This is an actual question idk what to do cus I have 633 conq rn

jovial torrent
#

are u playing prot, dunno why u would want a shield

median lynx
#

I plan to play Prot for funnies and for BGs yeah

rancid granite
#

we've been over this

median lynx
#

I probably shouldn't buy a purple shield if it's just Prot for funnies

rancid granite
#

you get free weapons

median lynx
rancid granite
#

but you were just complaining conquest is gonna take forever like 20mins ago

#

so #doubt

median lynx
#

On a new character.

#

Not my bloody main

median lynx
#

Shuddup

rancid granite
#

looks photoshopped

median lynx
#

Ok well I'm just gonna buy a green shieldthen

#

in case I don't actually like Prot

rancid granite
#

solid choice

median lynx
#

...Why does this guy who's talents I stole have the Earthquaker talent but not Shockwave...

rancid granite
#

you'll like it but you're gonna want to go back fury i'm sure

jovial torrent
#

get one with bloody tokens

median lynx
#

Actually yeah no why does this guy not have Shockwave-

rancid granite
#

can be weak

median lynx
#

He's colossul Prot but doesn't have Shockwave even tho one of Col's hero talents requires Shockwave

rancid granite
#

one thing fury got over arms for things like battlegrounds btw, death wish, amazing talent

median lynx
#

I guess he just ignores it

green wharf
rancid granite
#

lolol

jovial torrent
#

i really should try use deathwish, but i just feel like il kill myself with the bonus dmg taken

median lynx
#

Anyways now I gotta try and figure out Prot's rotation

green wharf
#

you just shield slam and thunderclap on cd

#

if they are both in cd use revenge/slam

median lynx
#

Wait so it's a 3 button class??

rancid granite
#

isnt revenge core to col. prot

green wharf
#

i mean, its the basics

rancid granite
#

thane spam tclap col spam revenge no?

median lynx
#

There any sites or someone who made a guide for Prot PVP? Cus I heard Icy-Veins is just kinda ass

#

sorry, language

green wharf
#

you can say worse

median lynx
#

nvm I can just try to google it

#

...Wait when did this season start again

green wharf
#

what kind of guide do you want

wispy knoll
#

need a pocket healer tho

#

if u rocking death wish

#

loll

median lynx
fierce elm
#

Rotation is Rampage

median lynx
#

Murlok io is good for gear, stats and talents but doesn't tell you gameplay stuff

fierce elm
#

or are you arms

median lynx
fierce elm
#

what the fuck

median lynx
#

I know Fury's rotation

fierce elm
#

What the fuck prot rotation

#

GET THSI PROT TALK OUTTA HERE

median lynx
#

Iirc Fury is just stacking Raging Blows then Rampage

fierce elm
#

depends on thane vs fury

median lynx
#

Thane vs fury

fierce elm
#

vs slayer

median lynx
#

Ah yes the legendary 4th Warr spec.

Thane

#

Lmao

green wharf
#

shieldslam>tclap>revenge

#

keep ignore pain up as much as you can

median lynx
green wharf
#

use other CDs to defend

#

like shield block, shield wall

#

use avatar/dragon roar to attack

#

use execute when it procs

#

pretty easy

median lynx
#

Alright sounds simple enough

median lynx
#

We do a little clowning

#

Wait is Prot a good flag carrier, I remember reading that on Icy Veins, but again...Icy Veins. Only recently realized it's bad

ruby light
#

i havent played in 2 expacs is there somewhere that i can find what pvp pieces to focus on first

fierce elm
#

can also pick arms

#

you get weapons for free once you get 2500 conquest so dont buy weapons

ruby light
#

the only thing confusing is what to spend my blood moon tokens on or conquest and what to convert to a tier set

fierce elm
#

Bloody tokens are generally used for smaller pieces

#

But you can also get shoulders or something similar

#

You convert hands and chest into tier pieces

#

Hands and chest are conquest pieces to be turned into tier pieces*

ruby light
#

chest from blood moon tokens?

fierce elm
#

no

#

conquest

ruby light
#

oh so conquest for hands and chest then

fierce elm
#

yeah

ruby light
#

oh okay got it

fierce elm
#

Bloody tokens at minimum are back+belt imo, but you can also do back+bracers+shoulders I think now

#

my math might be off on that

ruby light
#

got it, ill focus on that

#

is there any crafted gear i could buy, only saw 606 on ah

fierce elm
#

not anything thats worthwhile no

#

full honor and get into rated content

ruby light
#

okay cool got it

median lynx
#

So anything that costs below 800 BT you buy

#

But anything at or above 800 you buy with Conq

fierce elm
#

Entirely depends on stats and what week we are in

#

but yes

jovial torrent
#

i think thats enough rbg for tonight lost like 80% of my games

green wharf
#

back+belt+bracer+ something that cost 700 or 875 if you can

#

with blood token

#

700 gloves and turn into tier was a common pick

#

If you start now you ahve 2800 and can buy the 3 pieces that cost 875

#

and next week you already can buy a piece that cost 700(gloves, shoulder, feet)

ruby light
#

so is this from crafted then

fierce elm
#

yes

sharp meteor
fierce elm
#

Algari Competitor is the name of crafted gear

green wharf
ruby light
#

got it thanks

median lynx
#

...I defo fucked up when buying my gear lmao

spice hornet
#

this warr sitting at the top of this tower with assassin alone and the most buffs ive ever seen with the guild name <WE ARENT GETTING BANNED> is totally exploiting something isnt he

fierce elm
#

Or they have jsut giga-optimized open world content

#

who knows

#

who cares

spice hornet
#

yeah he somehow self heals a ton

#

and then when hes about to die he uses that macro that q's you into something and auto accepts it

#

but also im pretty sure i heard someone complaining about that guild saying its filled with bug abusers

median lynx
#

Tichondrius players when ppl play Unranked game modes casually

sterile moth
#

Shit talking whispers after a skirmish are goated

median lynx
#

Oh no I'm talking about this guy who did literally nothing but yell at ppl all Battleground

#

when losing the BG literally means nothing

#

Like, you get less honor than you would a win, oh nooo

sterile moth
#

Yeah, just take your L and shut up

#

Always be professional and helpful unless trolling about SMF

#

or duels

median lynx
#

Meanwhile this Aug Evoker kept coming to Lighthouse and dying for it-

#

different match btw

#

and everytime he was gonna kill me I just popped defensives and got all my health back lmfao

#

yeah i think I might like Prot

green wharf
#

im seeing that sausage from DF

#

the candle from this expansion

heady mist
#

Is it worth leveling another warrior so that I can spend catalyst charges on pvp gear in peace, or am I overthinking it?

spice hornet
heady mist
#

And from today until I get full myth track tier pieces and upgrade them to 678 would take a few weeks based on my luck

sharp meteor
#

They added these this patch

#

they can be applied to "pve" tier to make it scale to conq ilev

#

it was meant to fix the "second char for pvp" issue

heady mist
#

I love you

#

thank you

sharp meteor
#

Have fun. 😁 I thought it was a super cool addition becasue it feels so bad choosing, lmao.

spice hornet
#

@sharp meteor Kennie Chrissy very scared that execute gonna get smacked with the nerf bat tomorrow

sharp meteor
#

📉

spice hornet
#

Yeah they always get an indirect buff because Blizz doesn’t dare give them the heavy hand and they get 1 nerf, then all the other stuff gets nerfed in other waves

sharp meteor
#

Disc 3% nerf rdruid 2.5% more rejuv

spice hornet
#

Yep

green wharf
#

WW, DH, MM War nerfs

#

Demo, Ret, Sub, Mage bufs

#

you hard here first folks

#

i got ion on telegram and he just said that to me

Goal is to push up to legend this season

#

Eeked out elite last season. Doubt rank 1 is ever in the cards but you never know

urban skiff
#

Am I the only one having a difficult time adjusting to rsham not being trash now?

spice hornet
#

I’m having a hard time adjusting to static field totem not being reflectable anymore

#

As a gnome warrior I don’t find rsham that annoying or broken. Hpal prob was the worst for warr with 2 bops and freedoms and bub

#

Rsham on a caster though is unbearable feels like grounding is always up

robust hearth
#

Damn and here i was about to say I like ur pfp, then you gonna and talk shit about me while I'm playing AC shadows sadge

#

So get r1 in blitz then

They used to be nom and meow I have to wait for their mana bar to be gone before they die

#

i hate that we beat bajheera in a blitz but he still gapped me by damage by 3x cause i was fc bodyguard

spice hornet
#

Nobody looking at that number if you won

boreal veldt
#

i'm rewatching his vod, it's just me spamming ham and intervene lmfao

spice hornet
#

Still wondering why hamstring exists in 2025 as I’m being auto attacked by a rogue or a dragon is spam disintegrating me with a slow baked in while he flies around

boreal veldt
#

not as big a slow as ham but it feels better

spice hornet
#

Heroic throw should apply hamstring. Is there even an equivalent ability for any other class? It does probably the lowest amount of damage possible amongst all abilities that do dam

boreal veldt
#

nah ham is dated

#

last time it was changed they removed the root by applying it twice

spice hornet
#

lol yeah in like Cata

#

Then they have that to ww basically

boreal veldt
#

the dust on that ability is from the Byzantine empire

green wharf
spice hornet
#

It’s gotta go

green wharf
#

some of then want arms to be "complex" to brag they have brains to play an 'difficult spec"

spice hornet
#

Heroic throw is another ability I think they forgot about as well. I get that it’s for pulling mobs really but in like Cata it actually did a couple of % of damage or more, in retail these days it does .00001%

sharp meteor
#

Here I was thinking I was old and getting mine knocked off.

spice hornet
#

lol yep doesn’t work anymore since the patch

sharp meteor
#

and you'd spam off global hamstring or something

#

so now it's on global despite deadly calm or w/e being gone

#

ggs

spice hornet
#

Lmao

sharp meteor
#

remember crushing blow charge

#

pvemans spam charged into mechanics and died

spice hornet
#

I loved that a lot

sharp meteor
#

so they removed it

spice hornet
#

Oh yeah in PvE that was actually so annoying

boreal veldt
#

legion also had focused rage which was one of the most cringe talents i ever seen

sharp meteor
#

wow i got hand pain ust readin that

boreal veldt
#

sorry brotha

#

didn't mean to bring back the memories

green wharf
#

thats it

#

i aint doing pve this expansion either

#

Arms should have a talent called boiling point, that makes you have full rage

#

It would work like focus/energy

#

would make different from fury making something unique and thematic to the calculated warrior, "you are always angry" kind of vibe

#

that or bake that mechanic into arms rework

boreal veldt
#

Execute talents need rework, EP should be a self buff, spiteful serenity needs to be taken out back with juggernaut, we deserve conq banner instead of fatality

#

but maybe i'm crazy

fossil mortar
#

You crazy. Jugg should stack 99 times, and no, they shouldn't balance around the max potential. Just the same expected stack amount as current jugg

lavish quest
#

@fierce elm you still use the skillcap ui?

sterile moth
#

The skill gap between a good disc and bad is pretty funny too

warm pollen
#

30 points per win

rancid granite
#

skillcapped ui pretty op starting point

lavish quest
#

Better than it was last season

rancid granite
#

i used it as a base then customized it a little bit

lavish quest
rancid granite
#

i haven't even seen what any paid versions bring

#

but the base addons/ui seem pretty awesome to me lol

lavish quest
#

Good to know. Was worried the free version would be some gimp shit cuz I ain't dropping dollas

rancid granite
#

it should have an option when you're first starting it that you can just revert the ui easily if you dont like it

sharp meteor
#

Bigdebuffs, sarena or gladius, omnibar, omnicd

#

Idk why anybody would ever pay

rancid granite
rancid granite
#

so having one place just 'here's the list and we customized it for you already' is just awesome :b

#

for free

sharp meteor
#

ui personal tho

#

its like guys what do i bind raging blow to

rancid granite
#

addonlist great, ui... good starting point

#

lol

#

then customize it from there

lavish quest
#

It just saves work. Like I've been using some pvpers plater profile for a while now, but I modified it to work well enough in pve too

rancid granite
#

everyone needs a good starting point

#

like your mom dressing you up for school, then slowly you learn to dress up yourself

#

skillcapped is just your mom saying 'here's what the cool kids are wearing honey'

sharp meteor
#

into diminish and omnicd

rancid granite
#

you said 5 things, skillcapped is 1 thing

fierce elm
#

Its literally just the same shit as it always was

#

Also this 'why pay' its a free UI brother bears

#

Its literally just profiles for the addons they tell you to download

#

its not like it locks you into anything

lavish quest
#

Well Aatos kind of answered, but I wanted to know if the free version was trash or not

fierce elm
#

Its pretty much the same except you dont get any support from their discord iirc

sharp meteor
#

its legit just all the addons people have already used

fierce elm
#

But yeah its just profiles loaded onto the addons

sharp meteor
#

if you're too dumb to install them individually or config them

fierce elm
#

Yeah why spend an hour on that

lavish quest
#

^

fierce elm
#

when I can just have it do it for me

#

weird

lavish quest
#

Then a patch drops and it all gets fucked and you have to do it again

fierce elm
#

So yeah lmao

lavish quest
#

Rather just have someone else deal with that lol

sharp meteor
#

idk about that

fierce elm
#

The profiles were also updated day one for s2

sharp meteor
#

considerin popular pieces get updated real quick

fierce elm
#

Source: I played day one

sharp meteor
#

but yeah in the end w/e works for you

fierce elm
#

We gotta get past this build your own UI shit when it all looks the same anyways

#

and the base UI is shit lmao

rancid granite
#

i praise it cause i'm still relatively new lol

sharp meteor
#

i mean i just go off what i have done that works

#

and what most good players did that works
