these videos are so good, would love to see 2hand fury kinky sim tricks, i remember jakefromtree used to do videos like these in p3

[@kootwigs]

if i notice any new tech with 2h fury ill make a video on it

Good job with the video and info. So nice the FFX music on back hehe

[@kootwigs]

Thnx i love the original ff7 sound track

[@Warzol]

huh wonder if ya still do SoD since i'm seeing you playing fresh wow atm. :x apparently phase 6 looks more like it's gonna be two handed warrior for sure cause the way wow head is telling us the best gear set up is to use 4 piece of 2.5 gear and 4 pieces of tier 2 pieces as well. :x looking back on videos when you were doing two handed fury.

[@kootwigs]

ya 4/4 going to be the play and 2 fury sitting battle stance seem like a better rotation then dw fury

@@kootwigs so going two hand fury is probably gonna be the way to go for next phase then?

[@jeambapt]

This is accurate for guild who never wipe. It’s probably a good idea to know how gear performs with minimal buffs after a wipe for exemple, or in a more casual context ( normcore guild context).there are chances that the bis list depends on that

[@kootwigs]

you can tailor the sim in this way by changing the setting of buff / world buff / consumables to have a representation of what your raid comp would be

[@MrJnilsen]

You should do a video on BIS pvp guide for arms warrior, gear/specc and a few tips. Keep up the 1000 aura warrior videos!

[@kootwigs]

if i pvp at all in sod ill give it a whirl. So far i would say get t2 6p for pvp for the MS reset from casting Slam. This would be good burst. Same with the comb of zg 3p combo with dps t2 6p for Shield Slam Spamming

[@JozsefPapp-ku2ll]

As i see you have more macros on diferent buttons like Execute etc. did you add a macro on your execute to use it over 70 rage? as u explained it worth to use if u are above 70 rage

[@kootwigs]

no macros cant have power conditions its just a /startattack macro

[@VLLN.]

ty for these videos man so helpful

[@kootwigs]

No problem!

[@Jedga88]

is dw better in full bis now? because the sims for warrior seemed to have changed in favor of dw

[@kootwigs]

its looking like dw fury is out preforming 2h fury. 2h being really close apart from cleave fights favoring dw

[@BrokenToyAnimations]

Possible to link your 1button opener macro which you pop at the start of fights? with BS 20% speed helm added too

[@kootwigs]

check "how to one button" video it has everything

[@liltom513]

hello kootwigs, i was wondering if glad stance was worth using instead of raid util. do you still get 50% increased rage/30% less threat even w/o shield?

[@kootwigs]

yes i tested this threat and rage gain effect dw and 2h

[@thetaxi500]

Great video - Looking forward to the 2h Fury one if you're planning to do so! I think Glad Stance is going to be your Bis Foot Rune but greedier, no? For the extra rage generated.

[@kootwigs]

Thnx. Any rage you do gain in Glad Stance is lost when returning to Zerk Stance well dpsing as fury. I don't plan on making another BiS video for 2h Fury Guybrush has preset for BiS setups and you can do the same step in this video to find out what is better or need to pump more dmg well gear in bwl.

[@jordanstogner172]

@@kootwigs you sit in glad stance and get 30% less threat. seems youre not informed of how bugged the stace is

[@diszkos24]

Anyone figured out if 2H sims more dps than DW?

[@thetaxi500]

@@diszkos24 I believe it does but I also believe they are close and 2h requires the 2p draconic to be "viable"... Fight Club discord has good sim info

[@diszkos24]

@@thetaxi500 somehow lower gear (P4 gear) as DW is performing worse than 2H in the same gear.

[@unrestrained9328]

Is fresh meat really better when it only procs once a fight, or twice (if you're lucky)?

[@kootwigs]

yep cuz the combo of front loading all your dmg cds with the 10% dmg makes more dps then random procs of execute

[@crazedsnail]

Yo, thanks again for the video, mate. Why do you think the sim has fresh meat over sudden death for 2hfury? Surely sudden death would be the way?

[@kootwigs]

fresh meat 10% stacked with all of warrior dmg cd also scales with WB and gear. Execute doesn't scale with anything but extra rage spent

[@crazedsnail]

@kootwigs cheers, bro. I'll start using fresh meat instead.

[@TxHawkx]

Ok so what is the hit cap for DW fury? Sounds like you said 8 or six and I got this dude that’s constantly telling me it’s 16 and I have no idea where I can get 16 without hit on every single slot.

[@kootwigs]

6% unless your raid runs with a feral druid applying fiery fire with the set bounce that reduces chance you need to hit the boss by 1 then its 5%

[@oliverthedonrodriguez11]

Question, do you see 2 handed fury being able to use the Blood Frenzy rune instead of raging blow? I like raging blow but the Blood frenzy rune also scales with 3% of AP and with keeping rend up as a priority I thought maybe it could work.

[@kootwigs]

YES as you can see in the video i have Blood Frenzy as the chest rune. I for some reason didn't talk about 2hand fury runes but talk about dw fury runes this is my mistake in recording. If you go to the description i link the talents and rune setup for each spec

[@oliverthedonrodriguez11]

@@kootwigs awesome thank you for the reply and the uploads. You are the SoD Warrior GOAT

[@ObieStill27]

Have you tried the glad stance rune on boots? As far as i know the additional rage gain works even with two 1h and it sims 400dps higher for me. And i think head rune might get free with that. Ive seen a few warries run this. Would be interested in what your „stance“ is on that matter 😁

[@kootwigs]

Glad stance rune doesn't sim anymore dps from what iv tested. Do you know these warrior names so I can check the logs? Sitting in glad stance and stance back to zerk for t1 6p is a 150 dps lost vs stance battle and sitting in zerk the sim reflects this

[@ObieStill27]

@@kootwigs oh damn youtube doesnt allow links anymore right? uhm i just found them by going straight into the rankings for fury warrior on wow logs. i dont expect this to be 400 dps better, but there seems to be something to it. on some bosses its used more (4/10 - top 10), on some less(0/10 - top 10). i just think its interesting and was wondering about your opinion on that :)

[@Ripboromir]

@@ObieStill27 the reason youre seeing that 400 dps increase with glad stance in the other warrior sim is because you have to go into the APL and change the swaps to glad stance to battle stance. The way their rotation is setup on the preset if you just put on rallying cry and dont change the APL your sim wont have battle forecast on it so youre losing half the t1 6pc bonus

[@Ripboromir]

It might be a very minimal dps increase still cause of the extra offhand rage and slightly less worry about threat, but you're barely spending any time in your secondary stance so 90%+ of your offhand hits wont even be during the time spent in glad stance. Its far outweighed IMO by the benefit that rally provides to a raid on fights like vael, chromag, twin drakes etc.

[@Kaelisk]

I was hoping for more 2h fury build talk I’ve noticed some minor variations in rune choices based on simplicity and gear choices.

[@kootwigs]

these runes just for max dps

[@richardbuckeridge5864]

unless i missed something, you didnt change to axe rune when simming 1h wpns, so your results could be misleading

[@kootwigs]

the +5 axe skill is in the setting tab and is selected

[@valinor1082]

How come if I reset the talents then put them back in the exact same way, it suddenly dps 1k less?

[@kootwigs]

im not sure

[@thomasheath3777]

As far as an opener goes, would you blow everything off the bat including recklessness because it becomes harder later on in the fight to proc fresh meat? Or do you save cd’s for execute phase as dual wield fury

[@kootwigs]

blow everything and end with blood thirst to proc freshmeat

[@braxtonking]

quick question for you I have been using your DW 1 button macro setup and I was curious after the CD's are over do I need to dump rage then stop the macro spam until I get back above 60 rage again? thanks for the great guide

[@kootwigs]

so as long as you have an enrage effect spamming BT / HS for slam proc is best form of dps

[@braxtonking]

@@kootwigs great thanks a bunch

[@lucianomateria3455]

sup, do you think i can go 2handed fury without the 2nd piece tier draconic ? because i miss thunderan belt and cant get it at all, already got ashkandi but i still need a t2 belt. so my question was if i lose dps changing to 2 handed although I have ashkandi

[@kootwigs]

ya you just have to fire rends every 23 seconds

[@gab01101]

Is Empyrean Demolisher really better than Crul'shorukh?

[@kootwigs]

they really close in dps but im thinking faster kill times make ED just a little better

[@futuristiccowboy3104]

hello, we need 6% hit anyway? even when we have feral druid with t1 set bonus hit buff?

[@kootwigs]

no if you have a druid applying +1% hit you only need 5% but relying on this is a gamble

[@senseifol5646]

So is 2h fury better than DW fury? They SIM almost identically but it looks like 2h is slightly higher. Sucks that Crul isn't BIS for dw...

[@kootwigs]

yes and yes

[@brandenbrewer7055]

Can I ask why using glad stance is not used? I under stand rallying cry is more for the raid but sims is saying glad is better for dps. Is it bugged?

[@kootwigs]

as fury dps with t1 6p you only stance dance to maintain the buffs. So you only spend 1 second in a stance that's not zerk. Glad stance doesn't add any benefit to dps over battle

[@Kanekri]

as DW fury should i cancel my heroic strikes for more rage or is pointless?

[@Goremachine]

Glad stance is legit, especially with the 15 second echoes. Lets you use all abilities even without shield. You get 50% more rage and more threat reduction it than Battle stance. The only reason to not use it over Battle stance is for rallying cry.

[@kootwigs]

Making Glad your primary stance and stanceing Zerk is -3% crit for rage gen you don't need will having World Buffs. I have yet to sim higher dps doing this and have not seen any logs of more dmg being performed with this strat. If you have any refence to anyone doing this with high rank please link logs
