Twigger Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Gemming, Reforging, and Gear Currently it is: Red: + 80 Strength + 160 Crit Blue: +80 PvP Power + 160 Crit Yellow: + 320 Crit Meta: PvE Crit meta, or PvP Meta (Try buying both of these to swap out helmets vs. different comps) Belt Buckle for an Extra slot Crit > Mastery Why crit? You gain +10% Damage from Colossus Smash, and Mortal Strike crits. With nearly 100% uptime it's alot of damage. 3% is the hit cap. Reforge Into Crit wherever you can. Reforge into Mastery where you can not. Reforge out of haste. Enchants Shoulder: +200 Strength + 100 Crit Back: + 180 Crit Chest: +80 stats +200 Resi Wrist: +180 Strength Hands: +170 Strength Legs: +265 Strength + 165 Crit Feet: +140 Mastery Weapon: Dancing Steel Proffesions Blacksmithing for the Extra slots, combined with Jewelcrafting for the +480 stats gems, are best in slot Talents http://i.imgur.com/yr9hsTK.png 15. Juggernaut or Double time More charges per game the better, Warbinger doesn't stun, making it nearly useless, as you can't charge casts. Personally i find Juggernaut allows me to get more worthwhile charges off per game. Double time too, works very well, allowing you to charge more CC, and paired with blitz / shockwave can shut down entire teams. 30. Second Wind It out heals all the other talents by far. 45. Staggering Shout or Piercing Howl The Disrupting shout nerf has made it redundant, since it now shares a CD with pummel. Staggering shout roots the target, allowing you to root grips, root people in LOS, etc etc. It's the best talent in this disappointing tier. Piercing Howl works to AoE slow the other team, is instant, doesn't have a CD, costs 10 rage and can be very useful. However as it isn't off the GCD i can't see it being better than Hamstring / Staggering. Edit: See comments for discussion on this tier, for pro's and con's of using the other shouts. 60. Shockwave This 4 second AoE stun is brilliant. A Must have for Warriors in Arena. 75. Safegaurd The intervene nerf has forced us to play Safeguard, so you can escape roots, or use it to peel damage etc. Escaping roots is vital for kills, eating traps and more. 90. Storm Bolt Currently the ranged utility of Storm bolt makes it the best talent in this tier. Alt talent choice. 60. Bladestorm 90. Bloodbath Paired together these can be used to do alot of damage. Only for YOLO mode. Glyphs Glyph of Colossus Smash - You don't have to waste globals on sunder armor. Glyph of Death from above - Huge utility boost as it removes 15 seconds of leaps CD. Glyph of Bull rush - Adds 15 more rage on your charge allowing you to sit in Distance more. Glyph of Blitz - Paired with the double time talent, it can be great at shutting down casters and CC. I Swapped Bull rush out for this. Macros #showtooltip safeguard /cast [target=Yolo] safeguard Intervene macro.

All classes look very strong, The CC and damage this comp pumps out is insane. Having never played it i'm not aware of the strat. :warrior: :hunter: :shaman: - KFC will have another season moving from strength to strength, the comp is constant pressure, and can train 1 target into the ground. No healer can outheal the Damage, but the comp can lack for CC if traps are missed, and has easily counterable cooldowns. :warrior: :shaman: :druid: - Turbocleave will have another good season, not as strong as the previous 3 comps, one of the orignal cleaves does exactly what it's name denotes. :warrior: :shaman: :druid: - Thundercleave could be good, potentialy. Ele shamans scale really well, and are looking really strong this season. It may be hard to find one not playing LSD, though. :warrior: :deathknight: :paladin: - TSG isn't looking it strongest ever, The damage is hard to manage but both classes can be cc'd and peel'd well by most casters, and major cooldowns disarmed. You'll have fun slaughtering Shamans, but other than training the blue i can see TSG having a hard time keeping it's DK alive. :warrior: :druid: :paladin: - Dependent on how strong Feral damage is Kittycleave could too, be viable. However it's so hard for ferals to put out next to any CC, and casting clones is a joke, you will be forced into the tsg niche of training healers from start to finish. That's it from me. Note that this is a beginner guide :) Feel free to comment and criticise this guide. If you want me to add something here just let me know. Edited September 28, 2014 by Twigger
