and leave them to do their damage

#

i forgor rogue players have to be 200-300 rating above everyone else to be useful

uneven grove
#

cloth casters are harder to kill than WW, warrior, rogue, ret

#

yeah we did train the ele, but it didn't die, so just swapped to their mate and that's all

#

Hello guys, what do you think about sepsis for outlaw in pvp? is it viable after 10.0.5?

sharp sierra
uneven grove
#

literally

#

when he was in my team he did half my damage just died

#

next match i got lavalavalava

#

earth shock

#

died

hard compass
#

I would love if evo dispel cd wasnt literally half that of DM

sharp sierra
#

XD

#

4 specs are currently the worst theyve ever been to deal with

#

solo shuffle is legit only filled with arms warriors, eles, disc and holy paladins

hard compass
#

current lobby pres, arms, ret, destro

uneven grove
#

would send racials home insta, fck dwarfs and shit

#

just nerf fcking assa base damage instead or DM even more idc

#

and make it undispellable

hard compass
#

they literally made combust undispellable, whilst making our main burst perma removable

uneven grove
#

because they can't be fcking consistent

#

Dark Soul undispellable? okay seems fair

#

*le blizzard HQ drinking fire mage tears

hard compass
#

lmao

uneven grove
#

Combustion undispellable? okay seems fair

#

now they do the same with DM

hard compass
#

hopefully we dont need 3 years of crying first

uneven grove
#

tbh what can i expect, my karma on WW still disappears from ME when pala press bubble, bop, or mage ice blocks himself

#

fcking logic

hard compass
#

spaghett

uneven grove
#

but at least assa is broken with 4pc and we don't need DM anyway to kill

#

we could just remove it from action bar and play like that

#

nothing would change

#

WAIT

#

first be lucky to get tier pieces, ohh i wasn't

#

too bad

#

idk why LoL, Dota and battle royale games are popular, i would give all characters a slot machine aka vault before every match and they can get a bonus item on start

sharp sierra
#

if i were a wow dev id cut mobility in the game in half

#

first and foremost no 2 charges

#

and yes, paladins you will lose your steed

potent pivot
#

I would reduce the amount of cc and slows kekw3

sharp sierra
#

ele shamans having a dash is so bad

uneven grove
#

fcking unleash shield root has NO DR

sharp sierra
#

there's no reason for them to have that

uneven grove
#

who the fck came up with that

#

yeah he jumped away

#

i am like wtf, double checking his race, it's orc

#

i thought he is a goblin first kek

potent pivot
#

Would be a bit boring progression wise though

sharp sierra
#

but they are plat 3 with 48% wr 800 games already

#

and the season started 2 months ago FeelsWeird

tacit crane
#

Game's fun and runs on potatoes/toasters

#

That's basically it

uneven grove
#

or disable pve set in pvp

#

there are easy solutions imho with not much effort

#

i would definitely do m+ with my friends if i would be forced to take vault from pvp slots

hard compass
#

when you join SS it says on scoreboard how many round won. is that random or is that how many rounds you need to gain rating?

#

(before the game actually starts and everyone is still on 0/0)

sharp sierra
#

hard compass
#

I thought so... just trying to give them benefit of the doubt that they might put a useful/interesting feature in

unborn portal
potent pivot
#

Make the set on vendor only active in pvp

#

EZ fix

uneven grove
#

yep yep

#

i had a 4pc assa in my shuffle today, guy just went down on 1 target

#

Good morning assassins

normal ibex
#

guys what do you think about outlaw in pvp after patch? is it still viable or ?

unborn portal
#

partyotter all three specs are viable

past tapir
sharp sierra
#

yes

#

fuck mobility

past tapir
#

i mean im down, as long as DH gets the bat the hardest

sharp sierra
#

agree on that

past tapir
#

outlaw is fun af imo

hard compass
#

can we also target classes with walls/TP that function during hard CC?

past tapir
#

other specs are really fun too, but my favorite ability gotta be killing spree, as awful as it is

sharp sierra
#

šŸ’

#

id say remove shadowstep along with it

#

leave us only with vanish

hard compass
#

reward positioning > mobility

past tapir
#

i could stay on him for a good min

hard compass
past tapir
#

then i would run out of SS charges and be left in dust\

hard compass
#

if we cut mobility, ss isnt needed tbf

past tapir
#

i was just talking about my earlier experience, not related to mobility removal discussion

hard compass
#

ohh xD

fierce laurel
#

Or you could go play wrath and let us be.

sharp sierra

classic cataclysm waiting room

past tapir
#

man wrath is a grab box, but 90% of grabs are just insta lose to some weird cheese

Why is payed guides linked in discord pins? kekw

#

400 RATING GUARANTEE IMPROVAL imagine just starting at 0 rating and u wanna see it

#

jokes on me

rose iris

Idk feelsweirdman its first discord i find that links to pay guides xd

sharp sierra
#

i cant regain the 200 rating i lost

This

potent pivot
#

Outlaw is the most popular spec atm PvE wise, so if any of those newer outlaw mains want to PvP

#

That’d be why

raven cliff
#

Ok, I drank my own piss. Now what?

frosty wing
#

Does Cheat Death work as intended in pvp?

#

Doesn't feel like it's cancelling any damage

sharp sierra
#

people run elusiveness and spam feint

#

i guess its better

frosty wing
#

It feels much better since Cheat Death doesn't even do anything half of the time

#

I just got killed by a shaman, alone, where he crits for 40k on Earth Shock, procs Cheat Death yet it still kills me

rose iris
#

they have so it casts 2 earth shock still?

frosty wing
#

Wouldn't that show as 2 casts? I see only one

unborn portal
#

Shit is gone

tribal bay
#

i think because theres actually a general lack of rogue pvp guides

#

thats the conclusion ive come to so far

#

because ive been looking for a high quality one like some classes get, but they dont exist

tawny kestrel
#

especially this early in an expansion, guides arent great cus things tend to change constantly

tribal bay
#

there isnt many great content creators except pika and his guides are mid

tawny kestrel
#

its best to just keep up with streamers/whatever sources of information u have

#

video guides arent great

tribal bay
#

some are fantastic

#

flarks frost and UHDK guides are insane

#

same with partywaffles

#

those guys are lucky

tawny kestrel
#

well they can be fine, but they tend to go out of date very fast

tribal bay

where is my sin rogue execute ability

No one here is advising you pay for the service

frosty wing
#

If an aoe is supposed to kill me, then it doesn't

unborn portal
#

I did paid skillcapped and it is NOT worth imho

potent pivot
#

If someone does enough damage you will die through Cheat just the same as in PvE

frosty wing
#

So the issue that I have with that is

#

In PvE, the damage is much higher sometimes

#

And yet I don't die because of Cheat Death

potent pivot
#

There are loads of things in PvE that’ll kill you through Cheat

unborn portal
#

it would be worth maybe if youre NEW NEW to pvp but if you've been playing a while you just gotta put in time to learn

frosty wing
#

in PvP though, because there's more than 1 source of damage, I feel like it bugs out and doesn't block it properly

#

Like the example I just gave above

#

Shaman uses Earth Shock, crits for a little below 40k, procs the cheat death yet I'm still dead

potent pivot
frosty wing
#

I just made the math

wise breach
#

Sure, but that's because you're likely taking other hits as well

frosty wing
#

The shaman would need a 160k to proc cheat death and still kill me

wise breach
#

In PvE there may be one big hit that it saves you from but then healers have time to heal you back up

frosty wing
#

That's true, what I think is happening though is that sometimes it doesn't reduce the damage properly

spice iron
#

Blizz def gunna make sin unplayable next tuesday

#

Lol

hard compass
#

sin is getting hit with a bat asap

wise breach
#

Elusiveness is normally better in PvP except against one shot comps

frosty wing
#

I take Cheat Death against those and it still doesn't do anything

wise breach
#

Meh, the whining is hilarious to me, literally nothing changed except more people getting 4pc

#

No one is running Arterial Precision in tourneys

spice iron
#

Do you have proof of this? Ik Nahj never talented out of it

#

Didnt watch the other ones too intently

wise breach
#

I could see the 4pc getting a 50% nerf in PvP

spice iron
#

Hemotoxin nerf + 4pc nerf

wise breach
#

I didn't watch Nahj, so I could be wrong about that one, but Pika wasn't using it, Drake wasn't either pretty sure

spice iron
#

Did they even try it yet, it's kinda nutty

wise breach
#

Losing Shrouded and Bone Spike is a big loss

spice iron
#

yeah but losing 20% bleed dmg in kidneys and 35% executes is worse lol

#

big dam

#

esp vs cleaves

wise breach
#

You can run 2/3 Zoldyck and still have SS and SBS

#

Vs cleaves AP does make more sense

sharp sierra
#

is it morally ok to grief an arms warrior's last win just cus they zug zug tunnel vision you every game and int their ass off?

dull bridge
#

yeah nothing changed this Tuesday as far as tourney goes

sharp sierra
#

ok doing it

wise breach
#

That's silly, if they're playing to win and training you is the best way to do that, why would you hold that against them

sharp sierra
#

cus he lost me 2 rounds

hard compass
#

cus fotm

spice iron
#

atleast nahj is running it

#

idk about other rogues i'd have to look

wise breach
#

I mean assa is fotm too right now

hard compass
#

not everything is that serious man

#

let us meme

sharp sierra
#

i kinda doubt its fotm

#

you leave stealth ur immediately forced to use 1-2 defensives and try to not get executed

spice iron
#

7/8 awc finalist were assa teams, the 8th hadn't fought a rogue and promptly went 0-6 when they fought one

hard compass
#

I guess you gotta drop dtb to hit arterial?

wise breach
#

No you can run both

sharp sierra
#

pro players dont equate to casual 1600-1800 rating

i am a bit sad soloQ killed off 2v2

fading blade

Even still you’re losing so much damage

hard compass
spice iron
#

you gain kidney damage

#

which is rly what matters

#

idk play what you want, but i'd suggest trying it

#

feels really good

hard compass
#

I havent tried yet but was wanting to try a build incorporating zoldycks at least

#

i thought fatal/doomblade wouldve been a big loss

turbid rose
#

Ok, weeb question, is Zoldycks supposed to be a HxH reference lol?

wise breach
#

Probably!

sharp sierra
#

how are 2 prot paladins queued up as healers?

turbid rose
#

I had that yesterday, it's horrible.

hard compass
#

seem to very rarely get 2 tanks rat her than 2 healers

sharp sierra
#

what monkaS

wise breach
#

Prot pallies are still classified as healers in shuffle, all other tanks as dps

uneven grove
#

prot paladins are healers

#

in blizzard devs mind

#

just run over them, gouge 1st angel, blind 2nd angel

#

they are dead

#

in 10 sec

wise breach
#

I mean it makes sense, I don't know how good their healing is now, but historically prot has had mad healing output the last two expansions

#

See Drainer playing prot in AWC in SL, etc

hard compass
#

havent figured hte full kit out yet but they appear to have a bubble they can put on teammates

atomic loom
#

Playing rogue mage and every double melee cleave just runs us down when we try to reset. Does anyone have some tips on how to survive their goes if we dont get a kill on our first or 2nd kill attempt

potent pivot

do you guys more often throw bone spikes on each enemy to get the dots going, or more on one target for the raw dmg

multiglad resto druid randomly died in solo shuffle at 2k mmr

#

i wrote "Lmao"

#

he griefed 1 match then left kek

warped anchor
#

dont be toxic then

hard compass
#

lmao

uneven grove
#

i swear people shitting on soloq rating doesn't mean shit, nor rated 3s rating means anything tbh

uneven grove
#

not like i did /spit, i know that's really really toxic LUL

thorn flax
#

Is it worth going 2 parts instead of 2 off set pvp ?

warped anchor
#

of course it's toxic

#

you know it too

uneven grove
#

yeah sure

turbid rose
#

It's toxic, but at the same time, I ain't soft enough to throw and quit because someone laughed at me. Especially if I kind of deserved it lol.

#

SS queues too long to be worrying about that shit lol.

warped anchor
#

i wouldnt grief for sure

uneven grove
#

lmao doesn't even mean "laughing at you", i just checked death recap and wrote lmao

warped anchor
#

but i'd think you're a cunt

turbid rose
#

I could live with being a cunt and tbh, yeah, I wouldn't automatically assume lmao is directed at me. I got nuked by an Evoker yesterday and everyone laughed including me lol.

uneven grove
#

yeah it was kind of the same, ele slot machine

#

somehow killed druid, DH and me wrote lmao same time

#

druid went afk xD

#

it was funny tho kek

turbid rose
#

Haha.

uneven grove
#

ele is just a shitty class, hope it gets nerfed to the ground soon and disappears

warped anchor
#

honestly so is assa rn

turbid rose
#

I've been 1 shot several times while learning Rogue, it's just a part of the game lol.

potent pivot
uneven grove
warped anchor
#

tier sets needs adjusting

#

its unhealable damage for some healers

potent pivot
#

I guess that can vary from person to person but imo 3s rating is the best insight to someone’s skill (when it comes to rating as a whole) but using rating to judge skill is still kinda dumb

uneven grove
#

3s never really clicked to me, probably cus it's elitist af

#

more like networking, than playing the game

worthy crag
#

inb4 flexing on peak rating off of unchained season

warped anchor
#

3s is more fun as i can play with my mates lol

warped anchor
#

and we're all around the same xp

potent pivot
uneven grove
#

by networking i mean it's more important to know good players to play with than being an actual good player

potent pivot
#

Not trying to downplay anyone’s achievements but it seems pretty easy to get near ~3k in shuffle if you have a decent understanding of the game

warped anchor
#

3s at 1.8 feels harder than SS at 2.3 mmr atm

turbid rose
#

If I had a healer buddy I'd love to do 3's lol.

uneven grove
#

it's deflated af

warped anchor
#

true

dense thorn
#

when i play sub with a random pug.. we win all the time, as soon as i play with a friend (hunter and rdruid) we lose more games than we win and he shits on me for being 'terrible'

#

im confused ot if its actually all me and im being carried or not lol

turbid rose
#

Or you just have bad friends lol.

dense thorn
#

i just get told 'i do negative damage' lol

turbid rose
#

Yeah I know lol, I bust my friends balls all the time.

potent pivot
dense thorn
#

what server are you?

turbid rose
#

I could never buy a carry. As soon as I'm done being carried I'd get folded. Rather slog my way up there lol.

dense thorn
#

the only reason id do a carry is so i could actually get into groups that are 1.1k cr but want 2.9k xp only

#

like ok bro

#

i have 2.9k xp, i was afk in it but i got it

Yeah I’m thinking about offering vod review, similar to how the pve channels do log reviews

yh i sent a video yesterday and some people looked at it but it normally just brings more questions

sharp sierra

why are some people high speed glitching in arenas

#

i mean wahts going on

hard compass
#

if their names are a deep purple thats normal

neon slate
#

Can I get refresher on how evasion works? You can’t evade from the back right so the counter play to a rogue evading would be to cheap shot or kidney him from behind?

#

But blur for some reason evades from the back?

#

And then once they’re stunned they don’t evade from any direction any more right?

wicked rampart
#

Correct

hard compass

found the assa 4pc guy

#

in my lobby :))

hard compass

#

stay out of 2k and you wont have to run into me

wise breach
#

Well that was definitely a Zoldyck tick at the end, damn

neon slate
#

But if you ship kidney into the front side of an evasion you just sad right

hard compass
#

correct

raven cliff
#

Did someone say something about shipping kidneys? I might be interested, DM me

#

Oh wait, I thought this was the black market server, my bad

turbid rose

Well that escalated.

get 4pc -> press garrote 3 times -> enjoy legend title kek

#

at least ele didn't have time to ramp up his damage, cus everyone was perma dead after 5 sec

raven cliff
worthy crag
#

still 2 more weeks for my 4 set

#

funnn

uneven grove
#

4set assa is easily the most broken thing in DF so far

raven cliff
#

I just started a new rogue on a new server, so I'm at least 4 weeks away

neon slate
#

Am I supposed to try to sap off of fears in solo shuffle?

#

Are all fears long enough for the enemy to drop combat from them?

lyric onyx
#

its tight timing

#

i think theres an addon that tells you when combat is gonna be dropped on enemies

neon slate
#

Is it worth using dance or vanish and spamming sap?

#

I see

lyric onyx
#

probs just dance

#

coz if theyre feared and youre gonna be sapping you'll wanna be killing and probably be in dance anyway

fickle dragon
#

Got hit by a warrior mortal strike while he was bladestorm even though I had evasioned already. Is this war talent causing his MS when he is blade storming to be considered an AoE and not a targeted ability?

dull bridge

does bladestorm go through evasion?

sharp sierra
#

no

my max is 39k

assa rogues can at least die

and half of us never experience what it is

jaunty mirage

id count on that tbh

dense thorn
#

assassin is so boring to play ngl

uneven grove
jaunty mirage
#

what will be funny is all the people fotm rolling assa rogue rn who dont realize how big the gap is between 4pc assa and non-4pc

#

damage gap*

uneven grove
#

and damage is non recoverable

jaunty mirage
#

yeah for sure

#

but its still a rogue

uneven grove
#

imagine if mutilate would hit 20-30k per weapon

#

and envenom 50k

graceful ravine
#

are u telling me my rating is because i have 4pc and not bc of my pure skill as a ninja? starege

dense thorn
#

i mean i have 4pc

#

and i still fucking suck

uneven grove
#

gonna go wotlk assa man. 3.4.1 assa was the best

sick moth
#

what classes are you playing with in 2s as assa?

uneven grove
#

legit with this u can win 80% of the games

dense thorn
#

yh but thats boring lol

uneven grove
#

pvp is just as scripted as pve tbh

sharp sierra
graceful ravine
#

maybe its a good thing assa's dmg isnt very screenshot worthy

#

multiple ticks of 40k doesnt look as crazy as 1 crit for 150k

jaunty mirage

yes, 4 piece will be a nice addition but nothing game breaking

i was told by whazz assa shits on ele

but i got zapped for my whole life bar

jaunty mirage

traditionally it does

#

assa is like their number one predator

graceful ravine
#

whats the kill window for ele's stormkeeper?

#

i insta cloaked once his cast was completed

#

he still zapped me 5 seconds later

jaunty mirage
#

kill window is prob however long skyfury lasts

vague tundra
#

what tier pieces should we get as assa

sharp sierra
#

3 wins

potent pivot
jaunty mirage
#

but really the issue is that their burst can still be really high outside of cds

sharp sierra
#

287 rating increase

#

what the hell is this mmr

hard compass
#

might be like 2.5k in other spec

jaunty mirage
graceful ravine
#

so if i insta cloak stormkeeper, he can hold his cast for 5 seconds and kill me after?

sharp sierra
graceful ravine
#

or should i cloak mid-burst

jaunty mirage
#

yeah

#

its def longer than 5s

#

stormkeeper lasts a long time

potent pivot
#

Yeah

jaunty mirage
#

its the other buffs you need to wait out basically

worthy crag
#

I just tank one stormkeeper cast with feint and try to step healer or something

jaunty mirage
#

yeah

worthy crag
#

force em to use the next charge on someone else

jaunty mirage
#

also killing skyfury as soon as you see it

worthy crag
#

ive seen some ele not even use skyfury

jaunty mirage
#

you cant stop their burst basically, but its pretty telegraphed

#

yeah

#

their damage overall is just high

#

thats why they are scary

#

can still zap the shit out of you without cds

#

nerfs this week didnt do shit haha

#

ele is still monstrous

potent pivot
#

Nah the nerf was pretty small

Guys where can i find tips on what to do in solo shuffle

#

i played my first match won 5 games played my 2nd and got into a 2k lobby dracthyr_kek

graceful ravine
#

so... best time to cloak stormkeeper is after taking 1-2 hits?

fierce laurel
#

In between the first and second one yeah

worthy crag
#

or meld the bolt

fierce laurel
#

Isn’t lighting bolt hit scan now?

#

Instant projectile.

Think so ye

i went 5-0 and got 0 rating

so...

granite zinc

owwie

grave pier
#

Quick question

#

if i apply bleeds on an off target

#

and blind that target

#

will the bleeds take that target out of blind?

granite zinc
#

nah blind will take off the dots but gouge wont

dense thorn
#

in sub burst.. are you shadowdance, strike, gloom, evis, strike, cb, st?

#

or ignoring the gloom

#

gloom/backstab

fierce laurel
#

No. That’s a pve thing

#

Don’t gloom

dense thorn
#

yh dont even have gloom in this build

#

so all of that minus gloom

#

and can you kidney and then go into a cheap shot to extend it?

fierce laurel
#

I usually evis my first stealth button in dance because I take first dance

dense thorn
#

i have first dance too

#

so youre shadow, evis, strike, cb st

fierce laurel
#

After a blind I vanish ss kidney dance evis ss sectec

#

Opening cold I cs sec tec ss kidneys ss

#

On a regular go it’s ks dance evis ss sectec

#

There’s a lot of different things to do depending on how it goes.

love it when "multiglads" have trouble in 1600s and flame everyone in the lobby

graceful ravine
#

anyone know when r1 cutoff will be publicly shown? how was it in the past

graceful ravine
#

both i guess

uneven grove
#

for solo it's like top5 for every spec

#

top10 max

graceful ravine
#

its gonna be the same rogues across all 3 specs i bet

#

if its that low of %

dense thorn
#

yep lol

#

no way is that top 0.1%

warped anchor
#

one guy with 5 rogues

uneven grove
#

:)))

graceful ravine
#

when will the data be available tho

#

the cuttoff #

uneven grove
#

idk about rogues exactly

graceful ravine
#

that 5k is only WWs above a certain rating right

#

is that how blizz r1 calculates its population?

wicked rampart
#

I mean sites generally don't bother with tracking cutoff until we know or are fairly certain when end of season is

granite zinc
#

I don't think we know how they will calculate total players for SS yet

wicked rampart
#

I mean for the spec breakdown if it's not literally anybody that has competed in the bracket the cutoff is literally gonna be like 3 lol

graceful ravine
#

everybody should make 10 rogues each and play 1 shuffle game to add to the population

#

take one for the team

wicked rampart
#

But yea that I'm aware of we have no info beyond "top 0.1% of each spec"

dense thorn
#

this last solo.. healer went 6-0.. the other healer clearly didnt have keys bound or something lol, but he was 500 rating above all of us lol

boreal basin
#

started pvp 3 days ago and getting to conq cap, i first got all honor gear and then conq weapons and rings

#

what would be the best buys with my conq

#

since i havent had any pvp vaults

#

so i feel a little behind

dense thorn
#

im running in all honor gear it sucks

#

most honor gear anyway

boreal basin
#

i mean i dont feel awful in honor gear

#

i have all of them

#

im just wondering how to proceed with gearing from here on out

granite zinc
#

probably want to buy the legs/chest/helm and start making them tier sets with the catalyst (once a week)

boreal basin
#

fair fair

#

would it not be better to get some smaller pieces and hope on the big ones from vault tho

granite zinc
#

sure if you want to try your luck

#

maybe keep enough conq to get a main piece in case you don't have one in your vault

boreal basin
#

also worth crafting stuff?

#

and heard about another 2 piece set that gives vers?

tame rivet
#

doesn't work in instanced pvp

granite zinc
#

yeah the drakebreakers stuff from world pvp is pretty good...I'm rocking 4 of those right now for the "shield"

granite zinc
tame rivet
#

but is good for the stats

#

some piece are vers mastery

boreal basin
#

is it better than honor gear?

granite zinc
#

yeah

tame rivet
#

for sure, the max upgrade can go to 421 in instanced pvp

granite zinc
#

you can do the weekly spark quest to get a currency to make them epic too

tame rivet
#

while conquest goes to 424

boreal basin
#

oh wow really

#

how do you guys do that quest? I find it taking quite a while

tame rivet
#

world quests mainly

#

lucky with a war supply crate

boreal basin
#

ah okey, and then i can buy it with those tokens?

tame rivet
#

elites killed also give them

boreal basin
#

and upgrade it with honor

granite zinc
#

you can go to pvp custom groups and find a spark farming group

#

usually just a group of players farming each other in a pvp zone

tame rivet
#

yes you can buy drakebreaker blue gear with bloody tokens that you loot with warmode on

warped anchor
#

what's the bet they gut tier set by the time i get it next week

tame rivet
#

then blue drakebreaker is upgrade to purple with seals of strife, 8 per week from weekly quest

granite zinc
#

I get it next week too so 100%

frosty wing
#

Wait wait wait guys

granite zinc
#

some guy just told me he can't wait until my shit class is nerfed 😦 😦

frosty wing
#

Is this normal?

tame rivet
#

i got it this week, you can still get clobbered and have 0 output with the set bonuses dracthyr_kek

frosty wing
#

This is bugged right?

tame rivet
granite zinc
#

yeah bugged

warped anchor
#

to be fair

#

assa is aids to play against

frosty wing
#

Ok I figured

potent pivot
frosty wing
#

What would be the ilvl if I upgrade ths one?

worthy crag
#

I dont mind running into sin rogues since im sub and can kill them relatively easily

#

arms on the other hand..

tame rivet
# frosty wing

i had teh same "issue", in my case i had a purple drakebreaker that was won from a world quest that was not max possible ilvl and the upgrade fixed that

warped anchor
#

yeah sin falls over to sub

boreal basin

warped anchor
#

i like ele shamans as sin

tame rivet

i dont

#

especially in arenas with high spots

they just fall over

you just get slowed knocked back and then that's it

shock, a 1k mw ruining my game for 2.1k

worthy crag
#

With the catalyst in game and the amount of dmg going around I am more convinced that 4p with verse gloves is better than 4p with crafted helm

warped anchor
#

love seeing rogues/ arms warriors on frost mage

tame rivet
#

you mean standing still

warped anchor
#

seeing a warrior waddle to you at 30% movespeed

#

then you blink charge

tame rivet
warped anchor
#

then alter charge

#

glacial hits way harder than that lol

#

like 180k

tame rivet
#

i got semi lucky dw

worthy crag
#

Thank god its a burst spec now

tame rivet
#

was only half dead after that

worthy crag
#

Nobody enjoys dampener frost

warped anchor
#

yeah its burst, you have frozen orb ice lance spam and glacial

#

ring of fire does high consistent damage tho

#

still rather get hit by a 200k glacial than a 150k ms

granite zinc
worthy crag
#

I still need to do 6 more 16+ keys so no pvp this week, gotta get that 418 mastery embellished ring

warped anchor
#

most people dont even play kidney shot bleed so intent to kill is hard to get

graceful ravine
pale storm
#

After you get all honor gear I’d say get conq weapons (can also opt for 1 conq weapon and a drakebreakers upgraded since its vers/mastery), then honestly I would save the rest. Just hold conq for a few weeks and see what vault gear you get, since if you get lucky with pvp tier (the tier pieces that increase ilvl in pvp) that would be quickest way to get 4 piece imo

warped anchor
#

why would you save now

dull bridge
warped anchor
#

you can get catalyst each week

worthy crag
#

You need concentrated for 418

graceful ravine
#

am i crazy... let me login to check

warped anchor
#

i thought you get concentrated for 2.4+ wins

#

in pvp

worthy crag
#

Well if thats the case ive never gotten one even though both my rogues are well above 2.4

#

I mean i have shit tons of primal

#

just not concentrated

warped anchor
#

hm ok

graceful ravine
#

ya i have this and ive never done any pve

worthy crag
#

Ive legit not gotten one concentrated from pvp

#

no idea

graceful ravine
#

ya this drops from arena, you need 10

#

maybe bad rng

alpine axle
warped anchor
#

just random wowhead comment tho

worthy crag
#

Yeah thats crazy, I have like 180 wins past 2.4 across the board currently

#

maybe i just have boxes sitting unopened

#

I feel like ive burned my soul pugging a key up to 17

warped anchor
#

i feel like that too when i pve

steel linden
#

16+ is pretty easy honestly

#

But I also think 1600-1800 arenas are hard with assa 4pc so

worthy crag
#

It taught me a hard lesson to never invite someone from ragnaros

frosty wing
#

I've been playing outlaw whole expansion

#

Stuck at 1k7 in soloshuffle

#

Changed to assa today, just today, with no idea how to play

frosty wing
#

Already reached 1k8

#

What's happening with this spec

hard compass
#

fresh toon, stormkeeper is disgust

worthy crag
#

Funnily enough i did the same thing but with outlaw

#

I just press random shit

frosty wing
#

How do you win in outlaw? I lack damage

#

But Idon't even have t2 so that might be it

worthy crag
#

Idk tbh I just try to line up the pistol procs with bte and kidney on the target

#

And grapple away when they on me

frosty wing
#

As a burst window? I still fail to do that lmao

#

At least they fixed the hook's bug

#

That was so stupid that you couldn't have subterfuge and use it without losing stealth

worthy crag
#

It kinda does fall short of its initial expectations when DF first landed

neon slate
#

Can we unlock multiple catalyst conversions in one week with alts or nah

worthy crag
#

I think you can

#

Im savinf my catalyst charge for now

#

in case vault gives me a tier slot

#

If not i still need 2 more weeks for 4 set fml

neon slate
#

I want outlaw 2 set so bad too lol

#

I also lack damage but it’s been goin up lately

#

For me the weak aura to show the ambush procs was a game changer

Might be hot take but I feel like the left capstone making amush able to double strike is dogshit

ahh ok

potent pivot

But for now that’s the recommended

jaunty mirage
worthy crag
#

Assa has been the go to for most rogues since like legion s7 anyway

jaunty mirage
#

yeah for sure

#

im talking about people seeing 4p assa damage and thinking they should go level a rogue

graceful ravine
#

by the time they get 4pc, itll be nerfed kek

jaunty mirage
#

it will be nerfed before they can get 4p and its a very different spec with and without it

#

yeah lmao

worthy crag
#

Yeah its big hopium to think sin wont be nerfed very soon

idle field
#

the way they've been rolling out nerfs, if you don't have it now and its op its def not worth leveling lol

jaunty mirage
#

^

#

yeah if you want to fotm chase in DF

#

you basically need a 70 of every class fully geared and ready to go

worthy crag
#

Its just a double edged sword for having easy pvp gearing

idle field
#

I'll give the current state of sin 2 weeks max

jaunty mirage
#

yep

worthy crag
#

wod was like that and ended up having just 5 comps on ladder

idle field
#

maybe when other classes start getting the 4 piece it'll balance out

granite zinc
#

fotm rogues get rolled

worthy crag
#

Nah sin 4p is a league of its own tbh

jaunty mirage
#

that being said, you could probably safely level an ele sham right now and it would be fine

worthy crag
#

nah. roll arms

granite zinc
#

me picking that PVE item week 2 instead of tier now I wait

worthy crag
#

devs love when arms is 0 tier

jaunty mirage
#

yeah true

#

or just warlock tbh

sonic peak
#

Having 4p what talent should i run? Stick to 4poison or AP

jaunty mirage
#

pretty sure all lock specs are A tier with zero chance of nerfs

worthy crag
#

who doesnt love getting speared into bladestorm into war banner into disarm into stun into fear into another bladestorm

idle field
#

DTB is the way

jaunty mirage
#

if SL is anything to go by, arms war should be safe the whole way through

fierce laurel
#

It’s tuned for a damage profile in pve that under represents how much it contributes to pvp damage. Where’s sub is the opposite.
Has there ever been a case of them putting a pvp multiplier on a tier set specifically or are we just going to see broad nerfs with the assumption that ever rogue has tier?

worthy crag
#

Iirc arms had like 13% ladder rep on 3s in sl s1 and they took 8 months to nerf interveve

#

13%

hard compass
#

i saw a few tier set pvp nerfs for ele

so its a thing

sv with pre-nerf tier was so silly

Sin SL tier was nerfed by 50% wasnt it

jaunty mirage
#

yeah

worthy crag
#

the vendetta tick acceleration

#

fucking hilarious

#

VENENDETTA VANISH HES DEAD!!!!!1

jaunty mirage
#

and that was nerfed pretty fast by SL standards

worthy crag
#

skill'ed

jaunty mirage
#

so i think people can expect a pretty quick nerf to assa tier again

worthy crag
#

Thank god at least master assassin leggo is no longer here to plague the class

fierce laurel
#

They just need the 2piece to affect sec tec and rupture then I’d wear it.

#

For sub.

jaunty mirage
#

MA was such a toxic thing to design a class around

fierce laurel
#

But i can’t see myself putting it on for sub rn

worthy crag

Nah, rather have em gut sec tech and design the dmg profile around evis

I can only hope to one day feel the burning passion in my heart, that a dh sees when a teammate casts blind

what are those

hard compass

Infurious gear

potent pivot
boreal basin
#

and why helmet boots?

hard compass
#

Helm gives flat % damage against people who damage you, boots give hardness buff

potent pivot
#

Because they have passive effects on them and have 424 pvp ilvl

boreal basin
#

ohhh i thought all of them did the same thing

potent pivot
#

Boots give CC reduction

#

Helm gives flat 1% dmg buff

boreal basin
#

oh so the level also doesnt matter

potent pivot

Mhmm

Nope

Always scale up in pvp combat, the craft rank only matters for pve content.
