Hey guys I am just picking my warrior back up after a long time now and I was just curious what you guys thought about this. Does anyone else think that for arms specifically slayer should be our aoe m+ hero tree and colossus should be our ST/cleave raid hero tree? For as long as hero talents have been in the game slayer has dominated arms for ST and colossus used to be good in m+ but now its slayer for all builds arms and even fury is slayer now lol.
To put it as simple as possible, the S2 adjustments for both Slayer and Colossus did the following.
Slayer had bug fixes and changes that made it stronger for both ST and AoE.
Colossus had adjustments to no longer have excessive CDR with additional targets present which plummeted it’s potential. These changes made in terms of making it easier to sync cooldowns have done much of the opposite of still being desynced enough that it’s problematic and not enough was given back into it’s kit to account for this nerf to 2+ targets being present.
Likely we won’t be playing it in MN’s S3 without some major adjustments to hero talents it’s got access to.
So for the moment in PvE you play Slayer in all situations of ST, 2t, AoE. Colossus doesn’t have the players who enjoyed it’s gameplay loop even playing it in Raid or keys like it’s had in every season since it’s addition in TWW.
It’s a shame because Colossus is a pretty cool theme, Demolish is a fun ability and more of a focus on MS/OP/Slam with Execute just being supplemental instead of the bing bing wahoo jackpot bullllll rush casino nonsene that Slayer has devolved into.
