can i macro it with mortal strike?
That'd just result in you taunting a pet off cd.
Which might be okay. I prefer the flexibility of having it up when I need it, like to reposition an early elemental.
like if they're going healer the play might be to taunt ele off them and hit something that isn't on the healer, so kind of split its damage and prevent the knockdown from hitting your teammate
taunting pets can also mess with hunters, or locks that aren't paying attention
demo in particular where you can often ding the pet behind a pillar
Don’t forget about disarming demo pet as well 🙂
I think I've seen it played with every healer, although priest is usually the spookiest.
Rdruid just lives for 12 minutes
because he has to run a lot to get the fear and incap
holy or disc?
sharpen as healer leaves cc
i usually see disc run with cleaves
disc is more the pve comp healer
like how do i kill a fucking gdruid
holy just dies if ran at
Disc for dark, theb you dont need CC. Kappa
they have like 100k hp and so many defensives
literally how am i supposed to kill a guardian druid
yeah disc with big barrier and stuff is just so hard to deal with
1v1? u don't lol
all i play bgs for is to scream st random people in 1v1s because bg players have trash gear
We'll try disc
People play Guardian? Or du you mean guardian affinity?
Close to 2k!
Oh BGs, solo prolly not at all
i usually find a druid
no matter what spec tbh
i hit him
i hit hin
i hit him
i hit him for 3 minutes
his entire team pulls up and violates me
like aa long as their gear isnt garbo garbo ill just be hitting any type of druid for ages
You wont solo a decent druid as Warr
No clue never seen a prot warr
if i cant kill you, you cant kill me either
can we update the pvp stuff in #268491842637660160
Druid might flop now with frenzied nerf tbh
Kitty still a thing now tho? Didnt get to try it out last ssn
i don't see why not
as either necro warr and kyrian cat still
or maybe kyrian warr with necro kot
Prolly will give it a try anyway. The Season will anyway go ages again
just checked and the kyrian arms necro feral team i queued into at the end of last season ended at 3500 sheeesh
kyrarms necferal bis now?
lmao idk but if they made it work last season i imagine it'll be fine or better now
No dstance now tho
actualyl yeah dstance and frenzy nerf hm
Not as tanky as before
30 sec leap for more uptime POG
the one i queued into that ended at 3500 was playing with an rsham oddly enough
actually he probably swapped chars
suspect loll
i guess with spear you could actually peel ret/war and other kitty cleaves off your rsham
is this recolor on weapon still obtainable after season? i did get the pvp set in that color but never got the 2hander
you just need to upgrade it to duelist
if you can upgrade it still
then yes its obtainable
so ur saying as long as items are still upgradeable then it should still be obtainable?
yes
to upgrade it you need a win above duelist that week tho
what rating is duelist now again
It'll be unobtainable on Tuesday.
^
really? how do u know this?
Elite weapons are always made unobtainable when the next season rolls around.
^
If you get 2100 now I think you get upgrade it?
2100 is duelist. I am not sure if it lets you upgrade to get the tint now, but I think you might be able to?
damn
ok
well thats too late then
my buddy aint playin anymore lol
thanks for the info tho!
to get 300 rating
and upgrade
probably get it in the process
if you get like 15-30 wins in a row
you get duelist
doesnt seem hard on paper
you can probably do it if you really try!
are there any other classes that play similar to arms in pvp?
the spec is quite fun but its gonna be not meta 😦
havoc/assa for killin stuff
feral/surv for having buttons to mess with people
honorable mention to windwalker
WW is just as easy
is there a class with a similar playstyle tho
ww is fairly stressful relative to arms imo
wym playstyle lol like in dealing damage or the defensive team aspect or what
Rotation?
yeah
because arms without the team utility/symbiosis is legit every other melee
where u press 123
only weird melee is like sub
or maybe surv because it's actually ranged
I guess frost dk is like arms but not as much sustain and no execute.
You're only doing damage in goes
Fair enough
i like spamming execute and slamming people
Understandable
yea

thats true
but is it still viable next patch?
thats what worries me
screw next patch
i meant this patch
You played fury to 2400
i mean yea
Why would viability concern you
xd
The meta is supposed to change throughout an expansion lol
you arent wrong
We might not see any arms warriors at all next season in 10.0
rough
It be like that.
Wait do you think Fury gonna be Meta?
Two swords do more damage than one.
but as of right now
Fury is super bad in the def department tho
listen
Neither are super bad. They're just dramatisized.
d stance was the BIG thing about arms
now d stance = warpaint except you do crap dmg while in d stance
enraged regen is also good vs casters
parry is not
both have negatives
warpaint doesnt decrease the dmg you do
d stance does
it reduces your output more than what you take
the pressure of fury is like 40x higher too
no parry might be rough if meta is fast
I just dont see Fury, it feels so weak whenever I see it xd
no duel is fine if everybody runs at you
no sharpen is eh, but fury has big ms
so eh
if you dont wanna play fury then dont
but yeah
fury gonna be meta
40% mortal strike on no cd is kinda overtuned
I could really see fury being better especially if meta isn't break-neck
fury with glory fucking cranks
so hard that i think it might get nerfed because of pve
I think it will be neck and neck tbh
I mean, I can see it getting nerfed in pve. Which means nerfed in pvp.
would be nice to get 2400 playing arms too
hmm
if it were to get nerfed in pve
wouldve happened by now
its gonna get nerfed due to pvp
i think
because that hasnt gone live yet
This is blizz we're talking about
Ofc
Theyre letting assassination going how it is in pvp because ita fine pve from what I've seen.
blizz hates fury in pvp
a few classes will get nerfed because of pvp
assa rogue, probably sub, ww and ret, and fury most likely
some casters too
ESPECIALLY DEMO
that has to get nerfed
ideally
set bonuses dont work in pvp
that solves a lot of things tbh
Yeah
Already bad enough with that
Some classes get the shaft with that
DK was one. That leggo got buffed along with abom limb itself.
Outlaw is forced into venthyr lol
outlaw CAN play necro
it isnt bad at all
but playing ventjyr
just screams 1 shot
dreadblades flagellation
greenskins wickers
Its a killer
and obedience
But the necro leggo for outlaw is bad
yeah
necro is bad for outlaw
tho its playable
because outlaw has gouge and gouge breaks on dots
and
its a perma dot from necro
And it spreads
yeah
So you're essentially getting rid of a cc playing necro
I thought gouge ripped off your stuff
I'm excited.
even then it could be used as a kick
necro outlaw seems okay but venth seems better
gouge is an incap
yeah
venth outlaw bis
you know
with all the rampages fury gonna be pressing
could deathmaker be good
deathmaker necro fury with glory
and reckless abandon
seems over the top af
assuming fury has 100% uptime it sounds pretty neat ye
i mean
How is signet leg?
crushing blow is a mini charge
signet is rn BIS
with haste and vers on ring slot
next patch
idk if unhinged or deathmaker is gonna be better
deathmaker or sephuz might b cool
Sephuz is neat
sephuz as orc could be good
ya def orc until at least 9.2.5
Sephuz need stat buf ;(
the stats seem dece although it loses some value with trinket change because no fat vers gainz
lel that plus anger management might b funni
crushing blow is a better death sentence
facts
what would be nice is if enduring rage and slaughterhouse were baseline for fury
and then they add new pvp talents
What is Curshing Blow? xd
so
reckless abandon is an awesome talent for fury
it causes recklessness to cause raging blow to do 100% more dmg
and charge at the target
but
it cant be used while rooted
the talent turns raging blow to crushing blow during recklessness
Which Talent is it? Reckless Abandon?
what?
it is not 100% more
thats what i heard
Do you ever fact check?
I heard you have a good healer friend
That explains a lot

My Raging blow goes from 2900 to 5350
numbers mason
What do they mean
i gotta wait for recklessness
and razonko
i got the idea from wowhead
thats where i read it
Does Will of the berserker work with New set??
:( so bad bug
report it
it seems pretty obvious?
Still report it
Ndogo master of bad infos
I didn't even know fury had slam until a few days ago 
How much does reckless abandon even empower the abilities
Check Raz' links up above
61% AP vs 94% AP
o legendary
all i knew was that it hit harder and made raging blow have the death sentence charge which is siiick
So like 50% roughly
was torn between that and AM
It's def the play with tier set
That 100% claim was troll
definitely not, cranking blow does big dam
plus u zoom around and stuff hmm
:(
Hows war looking coming season? Rbg mostly
ah the fucking bug
ye its gay
Prot bis for rbgs. Everyone else are just hating.
i like how everything other than bear is just trolling
prot is only bis because tou get to be turbo fast
because druids are op
in every spec
kekw
can just play enraged + slaughter + (disarm or bloodrage) every game anyway
y'all not ready for the fact silvershard is the best bg and the only one close id kotmogu
Silvershard is bae
Kotmogu depends on the teammates.
People see that as a deathmatch more than an objective game mode.
I really want a bg that's just a straight deathmatch
And be oneshot if you've been holding it long enough
Everyone has different strats they try to run.
There's one I can't stand and it's Eye of the Storm.
Hello folks, is war any good for rbg coming season?
Sorry my internet messed up earlier thought it didnt post.
ah ok irtimid
Im just looking around a bit for a new class to play coming season. Preferably one that is wanted in rbgs. Would arms be the top pick?
top, not necessarily. arms is sought-after though yeah
if you wanna do the most i'm pretty sure boomy is still a good dps with utility, plus as a druid you can offspec fc for flag maps
Between paladin, war and druid which do you think will be most picked? Saw someone say druid is OP but heard the same about war
depends what you wanna do i'd think. warr is often expected to target call bc of spear and sharpen, druid's more versatile. ret's job is banging out people in teamfight to my understanding
You can never go wrong with boomkin
Should boomkin by some unforseen dark storm not be viable in RBG, then you got guardian to fall back on
did anyone buy korth crystals before patch went up?
I bought 500 on my Ali rogue and they went up x2.5 lol
I knew they would
Druids always best for rbg
in the boat of "shit new leggo ranks here's my chance" so i've been buying crystals to make my r1 crafts into r3 while i level
suffice it to say they're more expensive now
what are korth crystals for
they're used for all leggo-crafting profs
and you can sell em easily yeah
venth is gonna be
significantly worse
comparee to necro and kyrian
and kyrian will be bis and probably the most versatile
So gotta swap to Kyrian then?
nobody has played venthyr since 9.1
Kk so what’s better? The spear or the banner?
depends on the comp
What’s more versatile?
its not like kyrian is such big brain setup either
Kyrian is by far more versatile
Kk so Kyrian it is
yeah don't spear without a stun on the target if they have a blink
kyrian also lets you kill druids
also third season in a row of spear so people are reasonably used to it
@sharp meteor weirdest part about low mmr rbg daily wins
not queueing vs a horde team and seeing an orc on every class
that can be
orc so sweat
wish i went gob or panda on one of mine
but hardiness is so good aaaaa
its annoying
i went belf after i stopped doing pvp much on my rogue
and now im getting annoyed
at no hardiness
aaaaa
do you ever have to play reg trinket as human
I dont mind orc warrior as much since orcs kinda look good in plate
tauren warrior is pretty badass, so is undead
highmountain same shit
tauren just curb stomps shit man
Should you stay in D stance the whole game except for your burst?
No
it's more important to be out of d-stance than in it more than ever
Exactly -20%
u do need to be in d for their offensive stuff if u can't parry or your healer doesn't have external
because sitting d all game is just begging to fall behind on pressure
which lets them keep swinging into u
which keeps u in d
And it might be me because I'm new too warrior
But I don't have like a burst damage
Warbreaker MS
warbreaker + spear/conq during sharpen is REALLY scary
especially if u get a sd proc prior, or during
Dude today I got a 30k crit with sd
Biggest ever
yeah sometimes that's how it be
banner badge orc avatar
I've hit some 40K executes on non clothies
kindred juice can push near 50
yeah
Idk that's me
rip the kyrian juice
crit was fine, arguably better if you were playing something bursty
I usually check on the 3v pvp ladder
But yeah i don't know what comp they are playing
So I came here, for answers
😅
necro was usually retwarr or kitty
basically
kitty in particular was so violently bursty on goes
I didn't know that :( till I asked here
We tried ret war disc, instead of ret war holy
We feel the 15% increase damage
But lacking healing?
disc has stronger healing than holy
disc feels like the cleave healer
holy has good setup with chastise if you queuing something like rmp
also the super bursty healing profile works nicely with how specs like fire or sub take damage
Then we are doing something wrong
if your priest is having trouble healing as a disc they're doing something terribly wrong
I trust you
disc is the absolute easiest and best cleave healer while they have a mana bar
that's where rshams and rdruids come in, because they are significantly more mana efficient
i thought your healer was holy
Thanks for the info as always
25 for me w/o externals, have had a proc follow it up for just as much
nowhere near peak
He was
and i was saying that you'd have an easier time with disc
venth or nf
venth being the more offensive and nf being the cdr/dampener
But today after reading you guys I told him to give disc a try since he played a bit
Does honor carry over to next season
yes
Blue post said yes.
Ahh didn’t see it kk thx
idk how people play necro war in healer 2s
q in war healer mirror
spear his banner pop
shambles
Yes, and you should hopefully be able to buy honor gear on Tuesday that can be upgraded to 259
why would you do that tho
no
No, but you can work on vault and hopefully get it out of there.
earliest you can get is pulling from first vault
Oh shit
What was s2 cap week 1? 800 or 850? Then back to 550
That's like winning the lottery
It is. Duelist wep when everybody is in last seasons gear is murderous.
indeed
like 10-14% more damage
def shouldn't be able to get weapon in the first 3 weeks
unfair advantage not only on damage but because they don't have to spend 1800 conquest on the weapon
my sham got his wep first vault then bought the other
which allows them to have 3 pieces of gear more than others
the advantage carries on through the season until about 2 months in
kekw

U guys use shield block?
or I'll get the wep on my shitcan alt warr with 200 conduits
I read it in wowhead guide
Although might be worth theorycrafting.
And I was like that's too advance shit for me right now
on paper it's nice but it's super clunky, and you lose more pressure than it's worth
thought about jungle after seeing dstance nerf and immediately keybound it 
heck maybe the play is hit healer or feral before the hunter kills us three minutes in
Does HONOR reset tomorrow as well or just Conquest?
just conq
Just conquest.
thanks
that's what I meant. But just conquest and not honor though right? Keep getting mixed answers
A GM said that honor is wiped, but GMs are often clueless, and a blue clarified that it wouldn't be reset.
@elder wigeon just wait till you find out people get lucky with 4 piece.
yeah can't wait to queue into gigachadx on week 4 who has a duelist wep and 4piece tier
gonna fight someone on 5th week with sword and 4 piece
while I have 1 tier piece and sword
yep
yeah i want it before it's super welfare but not sure if my healer will be on enough 
also looking forward to having like 20 vault slots week 1 and getting 0 weps
what is the best legendary i should craft for pvp? and the best stats ?
depends on your spec @winter nymph
also your covenant
fury anything is hast vers with signet of tormented kings
necro arms is haste/crit + vers enduring blow on helmet
kyrian arms is crit vers elysian might on legs
signet is on ring btw
I didn’t even look up how to get tier sets outside of raid
How do the PvP folks get theirs?
Vault
vault
also there is an npc that lets you convert pvp pieces to pve pieces using flux
but idk when that comes out
several weeks after, in the creation catalyst
did blizz change the bonus from double trinkets? I coulda sworn the tooltip used to say a vers bonus
now mine say stam and str bonus
yeah
anyone know the name of the new pvp enchant?
cosmic something probably
cosmic flow
Cosmic Flow, but I can't find the spell ID.
yup same
Oh, well. Sparkly yellow illusion on Tuesday.
Wish they just made all the enchants look like the mop ones but with different colors
Imagine a black bloody dancing steel
Instead we get dogshit
yeah that's what i have been saying
i want somebody a zone away to see the big fuckoff illusion
Hunters are such fucking tools in bg's
that is all
fucking losers.
play in traffic.
nah I think the illusion is cool with this season's sword but that's it
I like the tier set because of it's uniqueness and appreciate the fine detail in it, but other than that, I'd like to go back to a time when there was class sets for pvp
i guess technically that's 9.2 with a pvp recolor, i just want pvp specific sets and pve sets and class specific sets
The PvE set is only obtainable from raid?
Vault and crafting thingy
there is no pve set it's all the same thing
We’ve had lame armor type specific sets for 2 expacs now
Going back to at least class specific sets is a good thing
One step at a time
Maybe we’ll get PvP and pve specific sets next
This is never going to happen but I’d like spec specific sets
That would be hella cool
Like imagine if you completed a set at like 2.4 rating instead of 1.8
And you see a warrior wearing fury specific shadowlands PvP tmog
You’d go “damn, this guy is incredibly masochistic, I respect him”
if there was spec specific that'd be way too much work and convoluted
I agree class specific is enough
there could be class sets with spec recolors, that'd be neat I think
I think I need to do ZM with my alter
alter?
I'm only doing rep on one character because the rewards are account wide I'm pretty sure
afaik there's nothing to put gems on stuff but legendary slots should still have gems I think
thank god, im doing it on my gdruid
boes as well but those'll be less relevant in full gear
Could Bounding Strike be usable, instead of dstance?
Ye, that’s why it’s never gonna happen
Tints/recolors are way more realistic
Or at the very least tabards/weapons
Since glad mounts and titles are account wide it would be nice to at least tie some cool cosmetics to different specs
Would also push people to experiment more
I'd like gladiator to remain account wide but just be top .5% again
better yet, make r1 titles class wide and same with gladiator to disincentivize having a bunch of characters in the top spots
True, tbh pushing .5% and only getting a title is kinda lame
nah getting the title and the mount isn't lame
getting 2400 with 50 wins for gladiator when r1 is 1000+ rating higher is super lame
I mean .5% cut off was like 3.6 this season
maybe EU but not NA
And the only difference between a 3.6 and a 2.4 player is a title
top .5% was top ~750 which was around 3k
that's why you don't let top 5% players get a gladiator title and mount that used to mean top .5%
Ah nvm, 3.6 is .1%
Wait, so you don’t get anything for .5% anymore?
I thought u get a title, but that’s .1%
No you get nothing after 2.4
which is really bad
elite is 2400, and so is gladiator
gladiator used to be top .5% but they changed it
all you need is 50 wins at ~2400 to get the gladiator mount and title
but what do 2400 players get that say 3500 players get? the exact same thing
or 2.7 3.0
we don't need bracketed rewards based on rating, just ladder ranking
3k should be tgepeak any higher just screams inflated season
top 50 players get a title or recolored glad mount
top 100 get smth too
top .5% = glad and top .1% being season gladiator is perfectly fine
yeah thats good
but the ranks are weird af tbh like ita 1400 1600 1800 then it starts going by 300s 2100 2400
gladiator was top .5% of teams in battlegroup from season 1 -> 13, gladiator was top .5% of players in season 14-> 25 (legion s7)
only from season 26 (bfa s1) to now has it been 2400 with 50 wins at or above
is there a way for 2s to be respectable at all at this point
No
it never should've been a bracket you could get glad or r1 in
it's impossible to balance unless you ruin 3's
so should i just go fuck myself and go play 3s
2s for gear 3s for title is fine
so i play the real game
3's is the real game
kitty still good right
and warr mage
how about ww warr
meh
Real men play double war
i wanna play 3s this time around
Ultrachad
Should also play fury
i unironically played fury + fury it was fun
Ret war, Kitty, Jungle, RMP are the best comps in the game currently
triple war=triple spear
jungle?
damn
jungle is shaping up to be the best comp in the game in 9.2
gotta convince my brother to try 3s then
however feral and arms seem really dominant to be in 2/4 of the top comps
my own predictions is that Jungle will completely dominate the ladder, and RMP will be a close second only because RMP gets spanked by jungle
Make sure the guy is in the middle and gets dragged in 3 different directions 
what is rmp counter?
sheesh
Rmp gets countered by rmp making mistakes
Raiku talking about farming teams queueing jungle into their rmp
Cuz they got nervous tryna snipe

just wait until tier sets and double legendary
jungle will rip the face off the ladder
so rn i play with a sub rogue, a ww(also plays mw), a feral/fire, and a rsham, seems like the play would be to convince feral and rsham to play 3s together
yeah kitty is good
nowhere near as good as last season due to kyrian druid nerfs but still good
does healer matter for kitty
I'd say yes
i know mw is in a terrible spot
mw isn't terrible, it's just the weakest of the healers but does very well healing kitty cleave
Rdruid>=Disc > Hpally > Rsham > Holy > MW
disc is probably the best healer for kitty in 9.2 with double lego and tier set
yeah i know, thats why its in a terrible spot because its the worst healer
mw has plenty of comps where you can get r1 with it
yeah but it seems rlly hard vs some other specs
MW is best at healing caster cleaves or Warrior + hybrid
sure it's harder because your positioning is everything as mw
Fuck that one
too white right???
yeah
too bad i cant fucking use inky black potion in it
at leasat i can use inky blacks in elysian hold
Ye that’s lame
They spectate with inky black potion on in awc
But you can’t use it on live
ye
Fuck
My healer doesn't like disci
He says he can't heal a huge burst like the enhancement one
enhancement one?
shaman will be excellent in 9.2
Are kyrian wars still going crit/versa this season?
what ilvl are mythic dungeons dropping right now?
The same as last season rn new ilvl don’t start till tomorrow
236
After reset it’s gonna be 255 for a week
And then 262 till the end of SL
The end won't come soon enough
awesome,ty!
cant wait for dragonlanda
Next expac is Winds of Murlocia, your lizard plebs fade in comparison to amphibian chads
How’s fury shaping in 2s and 3s 9.2?
Yeah the big crits and survivability suck :/
bro
u dont get a 75% mortal wounds every 25 seconds
and u only have 1 defensive
thats why its worse
75% ?
Do we Get new season item in vault tomorrow?
Tomorrow boys! Get ready to be focused more then ever!
I think this will be the longest season ever. Who’s ready for over a year of shadowlands still

fury has 110% ms
sheckmate3
Why play fury or arms when we can just play prot 
tru
what 75% are you talking about?
sharpen blade overrides mortal wounds
they dont stack
season 2 item D:
ture
true*
is kyrian arms looking to be atleast A tier?
and what is necro fury looking to be
necro fury is best for fury, kyrian is best for arms
idk
nobody knows yet
what this chan has become ffs
its probably gonna be like that
yeah
because fury likes banner more than spear and arms likes spear more than banner
So when we go kyrian we go mainly elysian might and enduring blow right? Which slots do you craft those on ideally?
belt EB
unity can be crafted on any slot so
idealy any slot thats not tier pieced
eh
might be unhinged with elysian might
nothing set in stone yet
nvm
miss understood you question
yeah enduring and elysian
And which slots? That’s what I can’t find anywhere
as of right now
i have no clue about unity
but
enduring blow on helmet crit vers
elysian might on legs with crit vers
do not craft elysian might tho
waste of gold
Whys that?
because unity is free on belt
and that is elysian might
just wait to be able to get unity
1-2 weeks
for now can craft elysian might at a lower ilvl
but at 262+ is a complete waste
Got it. Keep in on belt or straight away craft a rank 7 once revered is what ur saying
so
keep it on belt until you can craft it on something else
mastery kinda meh for arms
eventually want it on chest or legs i think
just because no crit on those slots
maybe even ring
but idk if you get to pick unity stats
ive played ptr
ive not*
What are kyrians stats? Coming from a season being necro
fury necro gonna be viable for lower cr pvp this tier?
just trying to push enough to fill vault and get a better chance of getting tier set pieces
it's totally fine for that then
should be fine for anything short of r1
Gladiator fury warriors!
I just want to get 1800 but it’s impossible with these LFG healers

If i understand correctly. The second legendary will be the kyrian one on the belt and the other legendary will be enduring blow on a headpiece?
Yeah ok but that is always the covenant one. Cause i have that one on my legs atm since i was told it was the best a couple of months ago.
ya it was but slot didn't rly matter, and doesn't now aside from tier
But doesnt the covenant legendary need to be crafted again after obtaining the unity item?
unity is cov leggo
Cause right now i have it from the renown 48 reward.
you need to recraft it yes
So i will need to craft the Enduring blow and the unity one, right?
its bad game design
Very much. Pricey one too.
mates that curia will be better necro or kyrian in 9.2????
Gotta admit
Necro fury doesnt feel bad
Too many Rampages in too little time
Although im p sure youd want something with more externals than mw
[22:43] wbwb: vs turbo
[22:43] wbwb: do we go warr or enhance
[22:43] wbwb: both seem so tanky
enh is not tanky wut
selfhealing is very high no?
enh and 10% dstance tanky hmm
i am honestly so glad most people don't know how enh works
Enha kinda kills u with doomwinds
But the wolves dont really do shit idk
That's as far as i got
Why are ya'll so far off on enh lmao
If you were prot you could just mitigate all the damage 
prot takes the cock
