Hi all. I found message there which says, "noxxic didn't up to date and its stat priority is not right for FR" or smth.

So can you tell me, where I can take stat weights for Pawn? 

And would someone would be please and explain what should I do on pack of enemy?? When there are two of them, I just damage to one. When there are three or more - it is Artifact ability, BC, Bladestorm. If cooldown - Cleave, whirlwind... and what should I do then Cleave on cooldown? Just whirlwind? Just solotarget rotation? I stack trying to decide what to do.

Can someone talk about AoE as Arms? I saw that after Charge -> Artefakt ->Avatar-> BS -> BC -> Cleave ->3x WW->Cleave... or what, cause i have still problem in Mythic with AoE dps. All DH, Rogues has more than 350k dps and im stucking on lower lvl.

thank You

Quoted directly from the guide:

Quote

2. Multiple-Target Rotation

At 2-3 targets, the rotation remains the same, but switching talents to Sweeping Strikes Icon Sweeping Strikes is highly recommended. You also replace Slam Icon Slam with Whirlwind Icon Whirlwind at all times, even without Fervor of Battle Icon Fervor of Battle.

Against multiple targets, Arms favours using Cleave Icon Cleave to empower Whirlwind Icon Whirlwind in place of Single Target filler skills.

2.1. 4+ Target AoE

  1. Cast  Icon Warbreaker.
  2. Cast Bladestorm Icon Bladestorm with  Icon Warbreaker active.
  3. Cast Cleave Icon Cleave.
  4. Cast Whirlwind Icon Whirlwind.

Try to stack all available cooldowns with Bladestorm Icon Bladestorm as frequently as possible alongside the  Icon Warbreaker effect for high bursts of damage.

Some classes are simply better than others at cleaving.

so it seems, that im doing right, but we are not AoE class like fury. Depends on talent sweeping strike. Anyway Dauntless is better to the whole build. Which DPS do you have with this FR build on trash in Mythic Dungeons? Cause i want to help more in trash when we are doing M+

I don't play a Warrior currently, so I don't know exact numbers that people pull. 

I would recommend looking at the Dungeons and Raids build that Wordup suggests. It probably will work better in M+ if you want more trash damage.

It's pretty simple...

Your "Rotation" is keep CS and MS on CD.

While those spells are on CD you have to spend your Rage with the priority : FR until 3 Stacks > Slam > Harmstring

You have to ensure, that you have enough rage to use your next MS when it comes of CD. (Track you Swingtimer or do Heroic Charge)

If you are out of rage, just Autohit, just ensure you can pull off your next MS

Macroing FR with Harmstring makes no sense. You will get ragestarved a lot if u do this. Use Harmstring when u have 3 Stacks of FR up and still to much rage to dump while spammen slams.

It's important that you spent as much rage as you can, so you pull out more spells(more dmg) and reset your CS/MS Cooldown but not so much rage that you can't use your next MS.

Arms is all about Ragemanagement.

Fury won't be viable until they change that +30% damage taken bullshit.

Thank you for your help, I'll try to get better at Arms. About that macro, idk where I saw someone saying to do that and I tried rs. Cya

The macro is correct, but ONLY when in Battle Cry and if you have the talent Deadly Calm.

I believe Fury and Arms are much closer together now in DPS, at least on single target.

What's up with the gearing section? there's an agility trinket there.

 

Also I'm wondering if my two 835/840 mastery trinkets should be taken over mythic trinkets.

Thanks.

Has there been any second look at the Titanic Might ability post-tuning?

 

My understanding beforehand was the size of our burst damage in the rage-free BC window was more than compensating for trying to "normalize" the damage using Titanic Might, even accounting for periods of Tactician refusing to proc. 

 

Since our MS is hitting for less, our overall chance to proc Tactician is (slightly) less, and we lost the option of Hamstring helping to proc during the Deadly Calm window; is it possible Titanic Might is falling into a viable talent choice?

This is an error. Noted and reported to Wordup, will get it updated.

As for your trinkets, I can't help unless I know what your trinkets are.

It's a huge DPS loss compared to Deadly Calm.

I've fixed the issue with the trinket (grabbing world quests for stat sticks is a bit awkward with the wide spread of them :p ) and also updated the FR rotation for the new situation with Execute.

Under 4. Important Procs on Page 2, you show tactician at the old .65 per rage.

in my recent sims (iLevel 850, Weapon 879) it's more like

Weapon-DPS (3,6) >>>>>>>> Mastery (1,07) > Haste (1,06) > Str (1,0) > Vers (0,87) > Crit (0,56)

The build shouldn't have changed but im still not confident with wordups priority during 20% phase and some leaking min-maxing.

For me, spamming execute while <20% is more dps than, doing the normal stacking + MS.

2 stacked MS deals less damage than an execute AND costs more rage (and execute also has +15% crit from traits)

I only use Focused Rage <20% if Battle Cry is up, since it's of gCD and MS with 3 Stacks FR is > Execute (but only like 10% DMG and less rage consumotion, since you stacked FR for free during Battly Cry).

Hamstring is also fully missing in that priority. You can spam that while Battle Cry is up, it's not that much damage but it reduces Battly Cry cooldown due to anger management talent.

Bladestorm is also fully missing in that priority. It's more DPS than Slam and you can use that in situations where you've got 3 stacked FR and CD on MS+CS and not at max rage.

For all comments concerning Haste vs. Mastery in the priority, thanks for the notes guys. I will pass it on to Wordup and see if we can double check everything :)

why are we still using hamstring still

 

Arms

  • Tactician proc rate increased by 15%.
  • Hamstring no longer procs Tactician.
  • Exploit the Weakness (Artifact Trait) bonus reduced to 4% per point

since it's off gcd, costs no rage during  battle cry (deadly calm talent) and reduced the Battle Cry cooldown due to Anger Management talent.

You want to use that while Battle Cry is up (with talented deadly calm)

I haven't been seeing anything similar. If you could pastebin the profile I'd take a look, but I have yet to see a profile that doesn't weight Mastery unless you are extremely close to a small breakpoint beak that over-values it for some particular reason.

It still deals damage (though it's exceptionally negligible), and is completely for free during Battle Cry. That is all, and it's not really something you should worry about at all.

      Cataclysm's Grim Batol has been added to the Mythic+ Dungeon rotation in The War Within Season 1, and one boss received a brand new model recently on the Alpha.
      General Umbriss, the first boss of the dungeon, got a shiny new model, which is quite different from his previous one. Below is a screenshot of the old a new model.

      Blizzard have clarified why players are able to get a full Spark of Awakening through the two available Splinters in the first week of Dragonflight Season 4, and it seems it's only for this week and only due to catch-up rules being enabled! 
      Splintered Spark (Source)
      Just want to confirm this with some details.
      Everyone essentially started Season 4 in catch-up mode. Players were able to get 1 Splintered Spark of Awakening from the weekly quest, whether that’s the weekly “Last Hurrah” quest or the PvP weeklies offered by Malicia.
      And then you’re able to get another splinter / half-spark from any valid catch-up sources, such as Mythic+, Awakened Raids, and PvP wins.
      Next week and thereafter, only one Splintered Spark is obtainable every week. And like Seasons 2 and 3, with the increasing cap on Splintered Sparks per week, and if you ever fall behind you will be able to get Splintered Sparks from any catch-up source.

      It seems there may be an easier way to obtain the Tusks of Mannoroth appearance during the Mists of Pandaria Remix event! 
      The tusks are one of the rarest transmogs in the game currently, even with the recently added Siege of Orgrimmar skip, as their drop rates are VERY low (0.1-0.3%, reportedly). As spotted by MrGM, the new Tusks of Mannoroth are a cosmetic appearance item added in the new limited time event. Now, some have suggested they may just be purchasable from the Bronze vendor (the currency that will drop off of pretty much anything in the event), making them pretty easy to get, but it seems there might be a different way to get them. 
      It's unclear whether the cosmetic will actually be purchasable or if it will drop somewhere else, but another interesting Mannoroth-related item was added as well, the Bones of Mannoroth, which may be related to the cosmetic.

      As you can see the bones are a stackable resource you gain from killing Garrosh, and it's looking like they're a way to guarantee the Tusk appearance with enough kills! Just how many drop is unclear, but assuming you need all 20 for the appearance and that Normal drops 1, Heroic 2 and Mythic 3 bones, it may take at least 7 weeks to get them. Now the number required might be/is likely to be lower than the 20  stack maximum, and we may get more bones per kill.
      But even at 7 weeks it's much, much easier to get than the current "hope for 0.3%" in retail, so it's still a pretty good deal! This may or may not upset players that farmed for the tusks for a long time the regular way, but there's a whole lot players that will be thrilled!
      The Remix: Mists of Pandaria event starts on May 16th and should last until August 19th.
