i just got here i'm staying here, and i'm staying sub idc what anyone says
rogue is fun peeposhrug

sharp sierra
#

I dk well see. With all these changes i think i might wow past me and move on. They clearly hate pvp

sour coral
#

Every 7 second cc is gone if I read it correctly

dull bridge
#

down to 6

harsh steppe
#

also maybe I can offer some outside perspective, but rogue is the most op class in game, there's a reason it's in almost every single comp

dull bridge
#

we'll see - long time 'til the patch

#

i'm curious if they're bringing rele back

#

since they're removing gladiator's distinction

sharp sierra
#

Not anymore. Rogue will be the least represented class at this point

shrewd canyon
jolly sierra
#

abstract

#

use gouge

bold bison
#

it's absolutely devastating for Rogue, literally dogshit change, they need to redesign the class

radiant glen
#

u guys hyped for the new rogue changes?

spark egret
#

welp there's the new pvp mount

harsh steppe
#

oh shit

spark egret
#

unconfirmed

tribal badger
#

sheeeesh

spark egret
#

btw

#

theyj ust have mount models and that fits the color scheme

#

of the first one

nova viper
#

Rogue will now be like a supporting character in Naruto. A cool ninja who's only cool and dies when the bad guy shows up OMEGAKEKW

spark egret
#

but it for sure looks like the glad mount

sharp sierra
#

Yea im pretty sure im just gonna cancel. There will never be a balance in this game and rather then keep getting pissed about bad change for my mental health im just gonna quit and move on. This game is terrible imo.

spark egret
#

I would be shocked if it isn't

tribal badger
jolly sierra
tribal badger
#

if anything rogue being a cc bot (which it ends up being fairly often because it has so much cc its damage gets gimped) is more of a support character

marble oasis
#

jesus christ what are these changes guys

spark egret
#

dont worry no rogues are getting glad now anyway

marble oasis
#

holy fuck

tribal badger
#

nerfing cc across the board generally implies specs that rely on cc to land kills will probably get damage buffs

#

unless u imagine they r just planning to gutter several classes

harsh steppe
#

i'm def gonna take an extra ambien tonight for sure

nova viper
#

Probably a damage buffs

nova viper
#

Probably

spark egret
#

they're not buffing our damage

#

ebcause of stealth

#

the community fucking hates rogue

marble oasis
#

they better make us actually do some stupid damage to offset it lol

tribal badger
#

also to be clear, the only singular TARGETED nerf rogue got

languid ravine
#

30k eviscerate lets goooooo

tribal badger
#

was blind sapping

#

because that uniquely went from 8-5s

marble oasis
#

we've been nerfed none stop due to our CC and the damage
delete the CC i want our damage back

tribal badger
#

everything else is just in line with everyone elses cc nerfs

#

which is w/e

#

they remove the set bonus cc reduc, they bring it baseline to all cc

#

thats fine

marble oasis
#

well our kick also used to lock out 1 second longer now it's identical

tribal badger
#

yes those two sure

dull bridge
#

every caster gonna have precog now

#

since it doesn't take a pvp talent slot

tribal badger
#

true

dull bridge
#

i'm also really glad they're giving us the ability to add pvp scaling to crafted armor

tribal badger
#

thats prob the biggest buff to casters honestly

dull bridge
#

so scrubs like me can get 2nd ring with main stat

tribal badger
#

cause most embellishements r like 1% damage, less in pvp

#

so giving that up for precog is so free

wicked rampart
#

S2 caster cleave meta confirmed lol

dull bridge
#

yeah looks like it's gonna be a wizard season

#

crit nerfed too

#

i'm just gonna roll affliction warlock

#

fear duration didn't even get nerfed

#

(yet)

jolly sierra
#

with this they buried fire mage, destro lock and sub rog to the fkn ground

#

specially fire and sub lol

dull bridge
#

they probably adjust for the damage loss

wicked rampart
#

Idk sub gaining back their CS rotation will be decent

dull bridge
#

they have been pretty good about that

#

except outlaw lol

marsh gazelle
#

i didn't see any hoj changes

wicked rampart
#

Assuming the meta doesn't just hard shift back to orcs because of course they won't change the racial

marsh gazelle
#

did other classes get cc nerfs?

spark egret
#

ESRA

#

I TOLD YOU

#

DON'T COME IN HERE

marsh gazelle
#

i'm here

#

lmaooo

marsh gazelle
#

i just wanna know if hoj is getting nerfed

#

or if i missed that

tribal badger
#

idk how many cc effects with durations shorter then 5s currently got nerfed

bold bison
#

give me smoke bomb off global

#

and duel

tribal badger
#

it seemed to be mostly cc with base duration longer then 5

dull bridge
marsh gazelle
#

oh

#

ok i'm fine with kidney nerf then

#

just blind sap change

#

still cringe but as long as it's not just us i suppose is less bad

bold bison
#

I'll take the blind sap changes and the kidney reduction, let's just have 1 min off Cloak and Evasion CDs, no energy cost on feint and a damage buff to make up for it

jolly sierra
#

do u imagine something like "Hardiness has been redesigned: Now reduces damage taken by 5%"

idle matrix
#

No more CC + flag caps.

jolly sierra
#

or straight removed

dull bridge
#

i can't really get over maim and kidney being the same button now

#

should've increased the cd on kidney like 4-5 seconds instead

sharp sierra
#

This gsme is 100% going to be a pve based game in a few months. Either pve or gtfo. The pvp pop is going to be dead. Mark my words

#

Imo this game is done. Period

jolly sierra
#

shut up pichu

wicked rampart
#

I don't see them full removing it

#

Ever

wise breach
#

I'm sorry, I can't get over the blind change, I know sitting in a long cc chain is not fun, but that's the point od having teammates to stop some of that stuff, intervene the sap, flare the rogue, etc etc

sharp sierra
#

How pissed was pikaboo

jolly sierra
#

ppl would complain a lot

#

for next patch

wise breach
#

This is basically telling me Blizz is balancing around shuffle, coordinated PvP can fuck off

jolly sierra
#

3s and 2s are dead

scarlet shell
#

I can feel pikaboos anger resonating from his skin

#

Healing sucks in SS

sharp sierra
#

Was he very angry

dull bridge
jolly sierra
#

remember, he will tweet "rogue is dead" later today

#

like in SL with sub

wanton breach
#

time to play melee or caster cleaves and just ignore cc!

jolly sierra
#

me smash

scarlet shell
#

The fact that coordinated pvp has to die for SS lol…

jolly sierra
#

we will have the 1k experience

#

for the overall metagame

unborn portal
#

s2 looks like no set up comps; just turbo or caster cleaves

#

positioned bad? barely punished

faint valve
#

what's happening? Can anyone write tl'dr version for me?

bold bison
#

removing trademark CC chain is making rogue another zug zug press W melee, if they don't compensate we'll be Z-tier

small girder
#

Just tuned in, what the hell is happening

dull bridge
#

the problem was cc wasn't even long cc chains - it was the piss cc and getting triple DRd in each DR category

#

they should've just deleted the third DR

potent pivot
#

Jesus christ

wicked rampart
#

lmao

potent pivot
#

Tf is going on

dull bridge

welcome to hell

spark egret
wicked rampart

Don't do it

Run while you still can

plz

#

we beg

jolly sierra
#

zugzug

tribal badger
#

im just thinking about facing every single caster with a free precog next season

#

😴

#

kicks lock out for less time and every caster with precog

#

do they just not want us 2 kick

blissful yew
#

Just hit ur kick

potent pivot
#

They’re changing our cc?

nova viper
#

Well

spark egret
potent pivot
#

Nerfing blind sap and kidney

neat bough
#

isn't this a big nerf to sub in pvp?

idle matrix
#

If they increase Ambush damage by 100%, then I'd be cool with these changes.

tribal badger
#

big nerf to sub and law yes

#

and whatever other pvp specs rely on crit for sustain damage

burnt wagon
#

kill 3v3

#

all hail soylo

potent pivot
burnt wagon
#

make soylo award glad mount

nova viper
#

Why they just dont remove pvp?

small girder
#

Man, I recently got my rogue geared. Geez. Literally today

tribal badger
#

because these changes would probably increase the amount of ppl playing pvp not decrease

potent pivot
#

Everyone give feedback on the forums

idle matrix
#

Yeah, you won't be needing 'gear' anymore where we're going.

neat bough
#

secret + cb seem like a big burst, not sure if i overestimate the strengh of it

tribal badger
#

it would just decrease the amount of top players playing

potent pivot
#

That’s all we can really do dead

wispy viper
#

nerf rogue

burnt wagon

sharp sierra
wispy viper
#

sec

#

how

tribal badger
#

all changes that make pvp more welcoming to ur average plebian

#

but def dumbs the game down a bit

burnt wagon
#

@wispy viper im rerolling to dh

potent pivot
burnt wagon
#

i lost too much iq

#

I have to play dh now

marble oasis

dumbing the game down is just bad

the rating helps seperate people!

wispy viper

as rogue u gotta have at least 150 iq to get 2.4k cr

cuz c tier

potent pivot
#

Overall I think blizzard has lost their backbone. Tuning based on the community’s cry babies.

#

It’s abhorrent.

sour coral
#

its silly the amount of misinformation going around, wait till the patch is live and watch.

#

the discord is acting like the forums now when it comes to doomposting its funny

tribal badger
#

i mean lets be realistic

burnt wagon
#

legitimately removing the ability to blind sap is a massive nerf to the skillcap of rogues, one expac ago we could reliably kidney sap. it's not a free interaction, it costs us a dance or a vanish, but it's a gamewinner, if you restrict the ability to do that we're just a stinky windwalker, or DH, or DK with one off micro-CCs for healers. i absolutely hate that change

tribal badger
#

how much cc actually got net nerfs

#

rogue got a net cc nerf

idle matrix
#

This is an absolutely BRUTAL nerf.

tribal badger

It's been an honor, ladies and gentlemen. Was it fun for pvp? now we're going to beat some of the same dungs ​​for a few months and kill dragons in the raid, because that's the only thing you can do in this stupid game. oh there's also solo which is the most random and unfair mode of all so good luck clown

sour coral
#

the biggest change imo is that crit damage one thats gonna hurt

wispy viper
bold bison
#

nah it's blind/sap for sure

wispy viper
#

ROGUE SO BAD

#

NEED BUFF

spark egret
#

based shit ever said on this discord

potent pivot
#

Come on

wispy viper
#

ok i am done

sharp sierra
#

I can see the next tuning.

All damage in pvp has been reduced by 99%.

potent pivot
wispy viper
#

blizzard change on blind is alright

sour coral
#

Adapt, overcome, succeed. shrug

potent pivot
#

Joking is fine

wispy viper
#

and dont need buff

#

better?

potent pivot
#

But let’s be reasonable

Lol

the loudest complainers will be the fotm rollers, mark my words.

reminder that glads distinction is gone

scarlet shell
#

Blind is now so bad wtf

#

5 is too smol

desert hound
#

unbind blind

#

useless button

sharp sierra
#

At this point id rather see:

Rogues have beeb removed from the game.

Developers note: to compensate all rogues have been given a free 70 boost

potent pivot
#

If they lower the cd it’d be okay IMO

#

But if not it’s zzzz

dull bridge
#

i hope they change orc racial with this

wispy viper
marble oasis
#

So who's ready for the PVP FaQ on how to PVE the other team down fastest

scarlet shell
#

Damn time to play casters

sour coral
#

with the recent buffs/changes to racials I think they want to make orcs/horde more desirable as it seems like the balance between high ranking pvpers is mainly alliance

dull bridge
#

this reduces the value of human racial too i imagine

sour coral
#

at least in 3s, which If memory serves is where they do most of their pvp balance

idle matrix
#

*Stealth has been removed from to Rogue's toolkit. We feel that it gave Rogues an unfair advantage in PvP situations that was not intended. Moving forward, we'd like to emphasize the gameplay loop of afk auto-attacking. *

dull bridge
#

i wonder if the %5 from the pvp embellished piece will still be around

jolly sierra
#

nope

#

cuz it stacked with the pvp bonus set itself

wicked rampart
#

Notes say its gone too

nova viper
#

Well

#

Ill be okay

#

Rouge still fun. The weakes class but still fun

scarlet shell
#

No outlaw changes???

nova viper
scarlet shell
#

Well time to learn sub, again

wicked rampart
#

Plus side it opens up a bit more flexibility with embellished items and crafting gear in general for pvp

dull bridge
#

the forum post says they'll be looking at the specs that utilize crits to make sure that they don't fall behind

#

i personally doubt that they'll be going through with the blind changes, bare minimum they reduce the cooldown, which i wouldn't mind

potent pivot
#

Lol they’re also gutting Lariat

#

Gg

scarlet shell
#

Lariat is a dead item

#

Sadge

wise breach
#

Not really, it'll still be as good when you have full sockets

scarlet shell
#

Time to switch to conquest neck then

#

True true

wise breach
#

Except the socket acquisition method is utter garbage

#

If you do both PvP and PvE

wicked rampart
#

Just roll free sockets on everything in vault 🙂

jolly sierra
#

they should add pvp scaling as embellished

wicked rampart
unborn portal
potent pivot
#

I like the itemization changes at least

jolly sierra
#

well, that is a good change if is true tho

unborn portal
#

I am making a caster alt

potent pivot
#

Gearing will be nice

jolly sierra
#

so u can do a scaled lariat

wicked rampart
#

Yea the crafting changes are actually kinda lit for pvp

jolly sierra
#

or something similar

dull bridge
#

crafting changes are really good

jolly sierra
#

do u have the full quote?

potent pivot
#

It’s on wowhead

#

The blue post

tribal badger
#

Casters r going to be wild

#

Next season

#

Precog as an embell is wild

wicked rampart
dull bridge
#

hmm you won't be able to get pvp scaling and precog at the same time though, probably. since they're both embellishments

tribal badger
#

Wdym

jolly sierra
#

hmm

#

good point

tribal badger
#

Pvp scaling isnt a embellishment

#

Its point is to make embellished items better in pvp

#

Its just ab optional reagent

wicked rampart
#

But yea we won't know until we see it since they just say "optional reagent"

tribal badger
#

Exactly

jolly sierra
#

then what will be given for melees?

#

in compensation for precog?

dull bridge
#

are embellishments like fang adornments not optional reagents? then yeah

tribal badger
#

Well ur giving up 1 dps embell for precof

#

It has a cost

wicked rampart
tribal badger
#

Its just that

#

That cost is like 1.5% dps

#

They would have called it an embellishment if it was an embell

#

Like they did precog

dull bridge
#

level setting is optional reagents, precog embellishment also probably optional reagent (?) so not that the same time

potent pivot
tribal badger
#

Exactly

#

Thats my point

#

The pvp scaling item is so u can have things like lariat at pvp scaled ilvl

dull bridge
#

I was misguided then, it's no big deal either way

potent pivot
#

Oh I misread the part you were replying to

#

My fault

tribal badger
#

Sp yea

#

Ur giving up a 1 to 1.5% dps embell

#

For precog

bold bison
#

even cdew thinks the blind/sap nerf is too much

wicked rampart
#

The only annoying thing is if they do put that in the current ilvl slot that means it basically locks it for pvp and you can't have a flex crafted item you use in pve and pvp

tribal badger
#

Seems pretty worth as a caster

wicked rampart
potent pivot
#

The man crying for Blind to be completely removed from the game?

dull bridge
#

damn, even cdew? we're really doomed

potent pivot
#

He thinks it’s too much?

bold bison
#

professional rogue complainer, grandad chuck dewland believes this is overkill

Oh jeez foxy too

I'm fine if Sub has a PvP talent to make blind 8 seconds

Assa can go be an ungabunga melee press W faceroll spec that's fine

If Cdew is defending us, hell has frozen over

wasn't he the one complaining?

#

cause pika wrecked him

wise breach
#

If Blind goes to 6, is that even enough to reliably Sap?

dull bridge
#

considering you could sap kidney in SL, yes

wise breach
#

SL Kidney was 7s

spark egret
#

is cdew upset at the change

#

no shot bro

If your ping isn’t great, you could see issues trying to sap from 6sec CC

you could still sap rele no? maybe I'm tripping

spark egret

blizz done it

they actually fucked up so bad

I don't think so, but I played assa all of SL and never ran DS, so not entirely sure

imo craft a pair of tier boots

Probably 3 considering the scope of these changes

jolly sierra

and don't think we will get honor or conq boots w those stats

can i still get titanic ring? do i go for conq boots after 10.1?

jolly sierra

go before to have them ready

At least they did say to play test

So play test it, realize it's dumb, revert it

jolly sierra

hope so

tribal bay

but increasing blind to at least 6 seconds

#

blind being 5 seconds makes 0 sense

#

and deleting hardiness

#

so its not an orc fiesta

bold bison
#

I can't imagine how tilting 6 seconds wouldbe, when we could send the 7cp kidneys into sap in SL it only worked some of the time, I'm not blowing an extra dance charge/vanish for the chance to get a sap

if you play night elf its free

they'll increase blind to 6 seconds

gz @jolly sierra nice

The kick lockout duration thing too is...

I feel like the crit change alone would have been sufficient to stop the insane burst

jolly sierra
raw bluff
#

they said they nerfed CC cuz they got feedback that CC was too polarizing for new players

now we just give feedback these changes are shit and they revert 🙂

jolly sierra
#

for new players? rlly?

scarlet shell
#

there is no way

#

someone said that unironically

jolly sierra
#

dude that in 2004 would be a laugh reason from devs

raw bluff
scarlet shell
#

he will laugh at the petition

jolly sierra
#

i know

#

but is funny

tribal bay
#

honestly

#

since they're reverting the 15% CC reduction

#

8 second CC was already at 6.8 seconds

#

since they deleted that and reduced CC to 6 seconds

#

its a 0.8 second nerf

uneven grove
#

yep, great changes so far imho

tribal bay
#

they wont keep blind at 5 seconds

raw bluff
tribal bay

and they didnt nerf cheap shots

#

so sub can actually do cheap shot go's

Unless orc

that'll be hilarious

If orc racial gets changed, it'll be more likely now than any other time in the past by a huge margin

#

mythic is purple

#

heroic is red

tribal bay
jolly sierra
#

i rlly loved the edgy red color for pvp

spark egret
#

normal is silver ish

#

lfr is yellow/gold

#

I checked PTR today

wise breach
#

I don't think the elite version will be the same shitty pink as the lock one

#

I hope

tribal bay
graceful ravine
#

oh theyre nerfing every CC

spark egret
jolly sierra
#

i already imagine the color combo in my head

spark egret
#

then it will

jolly sierra
#

is awful

tribal bay
spark egret
#

all of the colors are the same

#

for each class

graceful ravine
#

oh so its all the same

wise breach
#

Regardless though, I plan on getting the mythic one by upgrading gear

graceful ravine
#

nothing changed?

spark egret
#

just like this tier

tribal bay
#

so 8 second CC right now is 6.8 seconds with 15% reduction

#

new CC is 6 seconds baseline

spark egret
#

I checked warlock and rogue they both had the same colors

tribal bay
#

its a 0.8 seocnd nerf

wise breach
#

Sort of, some ccs didn't get nerfed

graceful ravine
#

can still blind sap but its super small window

spark egret
wise breach
#

So fear, clone are stronger than now

spark egret
#

or heroic raid

tribal bay
#

cheap shot also didnt get nerfed

wise breach
#

Yeah, that's fine, I do all that now!

tribal bay
#

so sub rogue got buffed

spark egret
#

ye

tribal bay
#

with the 15% CC deleted

spark egret
#

need to get 17s

#

then get the crests

tribal bay
#

sub stonks go up assa zug zug stonks go down

graceful ravine
#

but their cc is nerfed anyways

spark egret
#

then wait 4 months till blizz releases catalyst

graceful ravine
#

oh cheapshot not nerfed

#

interesting

wise breach
#

with 150% crits though, will sub be able to kill in a dance go

spark egret
#

I think they're going to release catalyst sooner

wicked rampart
#

But likely won't last given the immediate uproar

graceful ravine
#

i blame cdew for this

tribal bay
spark egret
#

against it

#

actually

wicked rampart
spark egret

LMAO

#

Someone with Twitter? Been hearing rumours about Holinka tweeting about orc racial. I can't find it myself, but I don't know if Twitter restricts my access without an account (I dont have any social media)

graceful ravine
#

LOL

tribal bay
#

and secret tech with cold blood is 100% crit chanced

#

it will be a slight nerf to secret tech

spark egret
#

when your biggest ops become your biggest fans

dull bridge
wise breach
#

I don't see anything from him about orc racial

dull bridge
#

that change is meant to counter random shit like the hunt and ds doming you from %70 on a dice roll

small girder
tribal bay
#

yeah exactly

graceful ravine
#

they have to nerf orc

#

otherwise its op again

tribal bay
#

yes

dull bridge
wicked rampart
wise breach
#

Oh I agree, if these changes stick Hardiness is getting reworked 100%, there's no way

tribal bay
#

what they'll do is

sour coral
#

Everyone still freaking out?

tribal bay
#

let it go live

#

wait til everyone race changes

#

then nerf it

wise breach
#

You can't have 4 second Kidneys

#

Lmao

graceful ravine
#

would kidney even be worth casting as sub?

raw bluff
#

get that race change money Blizz

graceful ravine
#

only 1 sec longer than cheapshot

#

worth the cp?

uneven grove
#

this is net buff for sub rogues tho, no CC reduction, and cheap shot is not touched

uneven grove
#

let's assume they won't forget to adjust orc racial with all these changes

wicked rampart
#

Def hurts burst on sec tec/one shot builds tho

#

Which is fine

wise breach
#

Eh, I wouldn't go that far, Blind change alone is enough to negate everything else

tribal bay
#

blind isnt staying at 5 seconds

#

just remember that

wise breach
#

I would like to believe that

tribal bay
#

it wont bro lmao

#

literally every pvp content creator has made a video saying its stupid as fuck

#

they arent just gonna keep that

wicked rampart
#

It's ok they will buff blind to 5.9 seconds 🙂

tribal bay
#

these are the same people who have blasted rogues for the whole season

potent pivot
wise breach
#

Hopped on PTR, this looks like it's the normal raid set

tribal bay
wise breach
#

Can't see the other tints

tribal bay
#

so i'm not worried about that

dull bridge
#

there's a purple ish hue on the patch teaser page

#

looks sick

potent pivot
#

@spark egret

wicked rampart
#

But if that comes with buffing elsewhere (which it probably will) that's really only a net benefit

wise breach
#

These are pretty sick

spark egret
dull bridge
#

honestly sectech is like double tap, it's so strong it's cluttering the design space a bit

spark egret
#

I think it's lfr

#

I think it goes gold>silver>red>purple

potent pivot
#

LFR is usually a greenish tint

spark egret
#

so lfr normal heroic mythic

dull bridge
#

but on the other hand i like having a big ass finisher

spark egret
potent pivot
#

Or silver

wicked rampart
spark egret
#

and we know purple is mythic

dull bridge
#

you think so?

potent pivot
tribal bay
#

its not double tap

spark egret
#

purple was datamined as mythic

tribal bay
#

you need a win condition as rogue

#

double tap was just fried cheese

spark egret
#

if you go into the item log

#

you can see all the colors

potent pivot
#

Ye I see it now

#

The lock one on the same pic is the pvp tint

#

From the original post

spark egret
#

nope

proven kayak
#

They added back the upgrade ilvl in pvp ?

spark egret
#

that's purple

#

one from the original was grey and pink

potent pivot

Wonder what this will be

proven kayak
#

Nah I'm tweaking I misunderstood the vendor

spark egret

that set is so good

potent pivot

They added a way to transform all gear into pvp scaling gear through honor and conquest @proven kayak

dull bridge

probably snare + root reduction

Which would be sick

some baffling changes

potent pivot
winged pike

interestingly enough it’s in the complete opposite direction of pre df seasons tbh

potent pivot

You are on crack

winged pike

whereas before it felt much more methodical and pre planned

#

now it’s gonna be slam shit randomly to kill meta

spark egret
potent pivot
tribal bay
potent pivot
#

That priest set is absolutely insane

tribal bay
#

8 second CC is 6.8 seconds

#

but they're deleting 15% reduction

#

and making 8 second CC 6 seconds

#

its a 0.8 second nerf

#

blind wont stay at 5 seconds

proven kayak
#

Well it's easy to abuse people at ssr anyway so rogues will be in ok state like always even if it's not that good

spark egret
#

the DK set is also going to be a banger

#

I have so much to do in s2

potent pivot
#

You mean on d4 and other games?

winged pike
# tribal bay blind wont stay at 5 seconds

they are probably thinking along the lines of blind being non combat so they are expecting you to cheap then blind into sap but already people pre the blind 🤷‍♂️

There's a black and red version of the set

Might be heroic

spark egret
tribal bay
#

i want pink

#

idc

spark egret
#

I think it is heroic

#

but we'll see

#

cause like they said this is mythic

#

mage mythic is also purple

#

alot of the heroic sets seem to have a red tint

unborn portal
#

Pvp tint when

spark egret
#

next ptr maybe

potent pivot
#

Pvp will be pinkish

#

Elite will be peeposhrug

spark egret
#

@unborn portalthis is listed as the warlock elite

wise breach

This looks like it should be normal

potent pivot

Lfr

spark egret

so I assume that all the elites will be that color

potent pivot

Maybe

wicked rampart

Sanctum vibes you mean

Bigger shoulders

tomorrow is another day kek

uneven grove

my dibs on sub rogue in 10.1

since i think they will remove the stun reduction from orc aswell

potent pivot

TFW they don’t

uneven grove

yeah then i cba out kek

graceful ravine

glad mount for shufflers when

uneven grove

cus i won't pay that money to change races on 3 characters

Surprisingly I think outlaw might be good

No set up just grind

tawny kestrel

outlaws only strong trait atm is the cc @unborn portal

unless they get a massive damage buff or a burst cd

tribal bay

what are you talking about

cheap shot wasnt nerfed lil bro

#

and 15% CC reduction got taken out the back

twin burrow

Did u just call him lil bro. What kinda porn u into

uneven grove

someone into degrading

tribal bay
potent pivot
twin burrow

I was kidding step bro

uneven grove

i am not even a rogue main

twin burrow
#

I'm a little angry ATM I hope you can understand

uneven grove
#

and i won't play 10.1 if orc stays

tribal bay
#

if they dont change orc i pve on final fantasy

potent pivot
tribal bay
#

and touch grass

winged pike
#

they will tune dmg around the shorter cc

uneven grove
#

it's interesting tho leg sweep duration isn't touched

#

even stormbolt is nerfed

uneven grove
#

was DH stuns in the patch notes? can't remember

potent pivot
fiery eagle
#

how bad is it looking boys

wise breach
#

So with those crafting changes, it might be worthwhile to make Life-bound bracers and belt with vers/mastery and get them socketed going into S2

jaunty mirage
potent pivot
#

the entire point they're trying to reach is where you don't get out CC'd into losing, while still leaving some room for outplay with CC at the same time

gleaming pawn
#

So much copium that we’re going to get even the slightest damage buff to make up for taking our CC out at the knees

tribal bay
#

i think its copium that people think blind wont go to 6 seconds

potent pivot
#

matches shouldn't be full-on scripted into a loss based off someone's CC capabilities (considering perfect play from all parties)

tribal bay
#

im making a PTR account to spam reports that blind sux balls

potent pivot
#

but if someone makes a mistake(s), that should still be punishable through CC etc

jaunty mirage
#

regular cc isnt really the issue

jolly sierra
#

racials is one issue

jaunty mirage
#

its every class having access to multiple micro cc thats the issue

#

too much micro cc is what lead to precog

graceful ravine
#

oh they pushed awc back to april 7

jaunty mirage
#

if they want to make big changes to pvp they need to look at micro cc/interrupts and mobility

#

if they want to change things big time then grow some balls and address the elephant in the room for the last 5 expansions

#

idk

#

id rather remove micro cc, lower overall mobility and make casters go back to actually casting

jaunty mirage
uneven grove
#

yeah assa is not reliant on crits at all tbh

graceful ravine
#

slower meta = mana game

uneven grove
#

we will see, ngl i liked to play my WW in bfa

#

so crits back to 150%

#

will make big difference

jaunty mirage
#

if the meta slows down as much as it looks like it might, assa will be the best i think

graceful ravine
#

bfa with crits at 150% was 10 min games no?

uneven grove
#

i would love to see tier sets gone in pvp instead of this crit change tho

jaunty mirage
#

its not necessarily a death sentence for burst specs

graceful ravine
#

personally i think the sweet spot of games is 2-3 min long

#

right now its less than 2 min for sure

uneven grove
jaunty mirage
#

fire mage was the best spec in the game for most of the expac

graceful ravine
#

its so rare to use the 2nd set of 2 min cds

jaunty mirage
#

like way too much

uneven grove
jaunty mirage
#

yeah

#

but sub was pretty bad

#

just based on current changes

#

the biggest winners are gonna be arms wars and destro locks

#

really destro lmao

#

goodness destro is gonna be wild

#

and maybe some heavy utility specs like boomy and sv hunter

#

sv is getting an aoe disarm

#

unless im reading that wrong

bold bison
#

yeah it's like a disarm living bomb

#

lmao

#

don't worry though we get an additional slow on our dogshit distract PvP talent, thanks game devs!

#

setup comps are deader than dead, these changes are meant to make PvP universal so newcomers and PvErs can play more, the idea of a 'win condition' is gone, the win condition is now just do your raidboss rotation until someone dies

jaunty mirage
#

i mean i think they are just tuning for shuffle now

bold bison
#

anything with high DPS and consistent pressure is going to be insane, with less damage, no crits, shorter CC and an end to CC chains it's going to be a really apelike meta

jaunty mirage
#

which i suppose makes sense

bold bison
#

if there's no passive survivability buff for Rogues you can forget it

jaunty mirage
#

well its not no crits ever

bold bison
#

end of an era

#

meh 150% is barely a crit

#

that's 25% less damage on Lava Burst, Shatter Combos, SecTec goes

jaunty mirage
#

like i said fire mage was the best spec in bfa and its purely a crit based spec

bold bison
#

true, the crit based specs now will need a passive tuning buff to make up for it

#

Ele Shaman should be sweating

jaunty mirage
#

will be interesting to see if they make any more changes

bold bison
#

either these changes are really concrete, which means Blizzard are literally incompetent
or they're going to do more, in which case they shouldn't have released this half-baked shit

#

I've played since 2006, genuinely considering whether I should bother

#

literally never malded so hard at patch notes, not even close

jaunty mirage
#

really just have to wait and see how things play out i guess

#

curious just how much the meta slows down

#

i think assa will be fine though

#

the more the meta slows down the better assa gets really

#

doesnt rely on crits, doesnt really rely on cc chains, super high sustain and in a damp meta they arent squishy anymore

bold bison
#

I might be wrong but I feel like Assa is probably in the most danger just now, it’s going to be a meta that favours tanky classes with high sustain, warrior is already creeping towards S-Tier so the ladder will be swamped by them soon

#

Assa losing 30% blind duration, 1sec off kidney, 2 sec off kick and blind/sap on top of garrotte fix and deathmark/hemotoxin nerf is pretty bad

#

It becomes even less setup based (it was always kinda diet Rogue) and has to compete with the zugzugs

#

Plus healers all running precog is an indirect Rogue nerf

jaunty mirage
#

if the meta slows down to the point assa doesnt die in a stun anymore, thats basically a buff

#

thats its only real weakness

#

assa thrives in a dampfest pve environment

spice harness
#

we dont lose 1 sec off kidney its like, 0,1 loss because they are removing 15% from trinket set and pvp feet

potent pivot
potent pivot
#

so if it stays, we essentially lose 1 second, yes

spice harness
#

eh no way it stays if they are making this changes ofc it existsđ

worldly girder
#

These cc changes are giving me diarrhea

proven kayak
#

They just want to attract more new players to ranked environment by fucking up the skill ceiling

worldly girder
#

I'm scared arenas gonna turn into a pve shit fest

#

Been playing frost mage in shuffle and it's already barely worth using poly there. This is gonna make it completely useless to cc

jolly sierra
#

will just be a shuffle meta

#

at this step

proven kayak
#

It's like lol season after season they try remove any skill expression and just win by numbers

jolly sierra
#

with a lot of wizards

worldly girder
#

Silver lining is it could make getting cc changes a bit more skillful, idk

#

Now you have to burn kidney to sap after blind

#

Or you could make a decision to just short goug e

#

I'm curious how this'll play out

#

I'm worried about the crit changes too tbh. I liked the fast paced meta

proven kayak
#

It gonna be snooze fest

#

Noone will die

worldly girder
#

Yeah I'm hella worried about that

#

They were doing good by nerfing burst cds and buffing sustain. Crit change seemed unnecessary

jolly sierra
#

wlll be good for assa tho

proven kayak
#

You just have to play bruiser with consistent damage and hope you do more

jolly sierra
#

but for the remaining rogues

#

or melees with lack of movement

proven kayak
#

Assa might be okay

jolly sierra
#

will feel like a circus

worldly girder
#

I'm Sick of playing assa reeeee

#

Sub is more fun lol

jolly sierra

u will get used

#

late xp always is for the spec aging like wine

surreal barn
#

Sub gonna get pool noodles just in time for warmer weather

#

Smh

worldly girder
#

Lmao

proven kayak
#

Ye idk I think sub will be in a very bad spot if they don't totally rework the spec

potent pivot
#

that will also make them a lot of money from race/faction changes again

jolly sierra
#

they are aiming for changes to compensate

#

crit based specs

worldly girder
#

They should keep blind 6s at least for sub only

#

They need to move more damage into evis out of secret tech too

sharp sierra
#

I wonder how dead pvp will be after this lol season. Rogues will be a rare breed

#

As snutz said this will be the final nail in the coffin

proven kayak
#

Most ppl who play rogue are dedicated and play them through every change

surreal barn
#

I think they are already kinda rare sub side. 1800 in NA was like what #600? Warrior @1800 was something like #4000

People just hating on sub cus they dumb

But it is what it is
