Crusader Swapping

Yeah, I can make it work with code, but not sure how to get around the GCD yet.

I set it up to wait for the GCD to swap both weapons, so you don't end up swaping just the main hand and not the offhand and then end up with a random assortment.

the GCD on each individual weapon is killing it regardless. even if you swap you lose 4-5 seconds on the last crusader buff, even before you try to get the next 2 up, that's a lot of wasted time and not pressing other damage buttons.

The swapping tho is based on server to client lag... so there has to be a loophole :D
 
If you have 3 weapons sets each set mirroring each weapon you can stack 6 crusaders. But using the same 6 won't work

The sets swapping in combat does not work anymore so you have to use a macro that works with the GCD..., but as above... the GCD makes it pretty terrible to even want to swap.

Was this a recent change? I've been swapping on my war for a bit. Haven't played in about a week and a half

yup, the nerf came with 9.0.1.
probably because shield swapping is back etc :p aswell as fury 1h/2h passives. looks like they dont want their game to be too much of a swapfest.

Both weapons are on a GCD now, not just the set, so its all jackassed and you can't swap properly. So you lose a huge chunk of time and you lose being able to actually press other buttons... its a damage nerf.

If you do swap and you actually get lucky that you instantly get more than 2 crusader buffs going... it MIGHT still be worth it... but probably not.

As above if there is a way to cheat the GCD so you can swap two weapons instantly it might still be worth it.

Hmm ill do some digging see if I can figure anything out, there's a few different macros I know of for equipping weapons. Will post if I find anything
 
With just 2 sader procs my dk can get 3k+ crits outside of bgs, the enchant is super nutty lol.
 
Best thing for fury warrior would use stromkar+2h weapon of your choice and then swap to war swords of valarjar since it automatically equips the main and offhand. It only works in that order to skip waiting 2 whole global cooldowns. Idk if mongoose is good these days but if that stacks it would work really well for rogues and even demon hunters.
Edit: You could even use the prot weapon if that equips the same as warswords. For a possible of 5 crusader procs rolling at once.

Unless they actually fix the artifact weapons all around sader swaping = not worth doing, even if you are elite or trying for big boy numbers. Even if you are rolling with +5 slotted and not +16 the artifact weapons are just 100% better than doing anything else.

Destiny 2x is ok as an alternative, but again... the proc is low and its more just clout with those than actual numbers.

maybe for fury. Crusader swapping for arms is not only still viable but desirable.
