Ok ngl 2s and 3s sub feels fine but climbing out of pits in SS is actually miserable
the amount of ppl triple dring or putting enemies in combat so i cant sap them mid cc chain etc
my soul is screaming
Thank you for triple dr shockwaving everyone 4 seconds before the DR was gonna end :D
Still climbing out of the rat leagues, but Shade's new build is making Assa damage feel super competitive so far
Crimson is doing so much damage I unspecced out of cut to the chase and put it in that rupture talent. And for some reason I'm getting way more procs from Shadowflame wreath with that build
Didnt press envenom once in 24 games and I don't miss it at all lmao
is RM good still?
yeah
ngl wish i had stuff to spend conquest on lol
the rogue stuff this season is criminal
is control is king worth taking ever?
not really
idk anyone who takes it
take it if tehre's a game where you're not gonna need, disarm,duel,smokebomb, cloak immunity or thiefs bargain.
but theres no situation that requirement would be true:)
interesting, are you with 2set?
Nope I have the wpvp dagger and crafted boots and thats it
Is assa good right now with disci in 2s?
Take what I'm saying with a grain of salt because I havent played in a couple months and I'm a couple weeks behind on gear, but Shade's build was noticeably way higher damage
Went from 1.1 to 1.4 in 2s with an hpal with the build, and half of the games we lost it was just him getting zerged and dying lol
BMQAAWulQAmRd/c4Iy2r7VOUFQLJSQikUSAAAAAAAkAgkAAAAAAAItQ4AtkIJJREIRIJRSSC
If anyone is interested. He has cut to the chase, I took that point and put it in scent of blood
I didnt hit Enven unless it was going to break cc but I'm also not the caliber player he is so
ah i see, will try it later then in SS tho, ty
The virgin Sub Rogue: Hnnnngh I can’t pick up orb because then I can’t stealth HNN-
The chad Outlaw Rogue:
I ball
lol
that man is balling
nooo orbs make you die quicker when you carry them!!!
outlaw rogue: hmmm increases damage done by 100%. Finally i can deal damage that is almost equal to warrior

does offhand weapon damage matter in pvp? i take it we don't care about swing speed because everyone seems to be taking slow weapons
for sub*
thanks
can you get to 1600 without tier?
idk might be the best tactic to train the healers
cus they are all borderline terrible
"it would be unfair to other players" response from blizz support. Jeez, why the hell u even put pve and pvp items at one vendor. Even ptr has separate npc for this
below 2k
tbh i wont take tier before my vault
cus im pretty sure im gonna get the piece that will give me
i got a piece and it was like crit vers 
all the other rogues have two set and just obliterate me
well thats a bit bias if u are better than themu really dont need the set until point
dont mental barrier yourself
sap healer, run at squishy with the duel. Even in 1.6 ppl think I wont 100-0 them in a few globals.
yahhh it's def not that easy lol
I think most ppl get / got tier by getting to 1600
im looking forward to the forge thingy coming back though bc my vault is so cursed, i got a piece in week 1 on 1 character and then the 1600, but not a single one of my 5 other characters has had a tier piece any reset :S
Just like hitting dummy 😂 ~30% of my wins end up like that. And I don’t have 2set
how
if you're with something that has a lot of damage just play wingman
i am
also make sure you're getting value from your vanishes
from the cdr
would feel bad to use 1st vanish and you havent even popped symbols etc
it also reduces cd on blind, kidney etc
guyz whats the newest build anyone have a video or smth?
havent played in just a week and it feels so weird lol
ty i'll keep trying 😕
I’m not sure there is a reason to go cdr build w/o 2p. Losing way too much damage
yah ive been running thief's bargain & i really liked it at first but imma just switch back to dismantle, im doing no damage
do you not know how it works or what
if you’re playing rotten there’s literally zero reason not to play thief’s bargain
Thief’s is literally one of our best talents, especially with CDR + rotten
Getting 2 piece isn’t magically going to make you go from 1k to 1600
You are already having issues with just knowing what buttons to press for damage, getting 2 piece which changes your rotation is probably just going to make things more confusing for you again
I would suggest just playing skirmishes while you sit SS Qs, I play skirms all the time, quick and easy way to go into an arena like situation for practice, talk to your team mates in starting area, have a sort of plan mapped out and then just try to CC off target + get your rotation out etc
hmm i seem to be doing more damage if i only shadow strike once before cb/sectech
my rotation was:
shadowstrike 2x > kidney > buffs w/ no SoD > shadow strike > evis > SoD > shadow strike 2x > cb/sectech
do i just shadowstrike once before cb/sectech until i get the 2 set, then ss twice?
there’s a very easy rotation with rotten without 2 set assuming you have premed you can still do the shadowstrike finisher symbols shadowstrike finisher rotation
wait, that's what i'm doing tho?
do i shadowstrike once or twice before cb/sectech after 2 set, & do i do shadowstrike once or twice before i get the two set?
also, after 4 set, are we going to remove sectech & just evis instead?
youre hyper focusing on the perfect rotation. yea sub does a lot of burst and the right rotation can maximize dmg but you should be more concerned about when to stun/cc, keeping track of DRs and enemy trinkets and setting up the kill condition. rogue will always be good when you can do this properly regardless if you have 2set or whatever
you want to build dance mac stacks before you CB/STech
enhance is out of control idk what they do but they just hit some CDs and one shot everybody lol
shammy just got 6 KBs in my first solo of the day bout to cry lol
yeah but shouldn't i memorize my basic rotation? rn i don't even know how to properly burst lol
I am new as well what he is saying is your burst will be negated if team has defensives, trinkets etc
right, but everyone has told me to memorize my basic dps rotation so that i can focus on ccing instead of focusing on my burst
i mean i'm really close to the rotation, all i need to know is after i get two set, is the proper rotation:
shadowstrike 2x > kidney > buffs w/ no SoD > shadow strike > evis > SoD > shadow strike 2x > cb/sectech
or is it:
shadowstrike 2x > kidney > buffs w/ no SoD > shadow strike > evis > SoD > shadow strike once > cb/sectech
lol if doesn’t matter
What if one of your melee attacks procs a combo point and one time doesn’t, your literally talking about one move
lemme back up then, the cb/sectech, should it always be with full combo points
i guess nobody knows the proper sub burst rot? =/
oh well if somebody knows lmk later tysm
i recall when i was kicked too because they wanted me picking orbs in kotmogu and i died 5sec later if i picked them lol
just woke up but can say something
pvp is not about a perfect rotation, u can have a lot of factor which can fuck ur burst
what will u do in that case? run? keep hitting because u are there anyways? step in someone else to redo it later?
i know but let's say nothing affects my burst
sometimes with my ret for example i miss my final reckoning by aiming bad but keep doing shit anyways
that is hard to happen tbh
but imagine, if it did, what would be it
at this rate i may just reroll to sin & spam dots hee hee
think u need to watch a streamer and see what they are doing
think so
u are overthinking and overstressing for too much stuff
i have, it's way too complex & so much is happening & the ideal situation doesn't really happen
people say to memorize my dps rotation; that's all im trying to figure out
proper sub burst: press your buttons in between globals you have to spend recheaping / other cc etc
doing damage as sub is really straight forward you dont have to put so much thought into it you just rupture between goes, and then shadowstrike into evis if you dont need the cp for kidney, and cb secret tech for your biggest spike during dance.
im sure u can get higher cr
i am making a video on the "basic burst rotation" & i need it to be absolutely perfect, o/w i'll get torn apart by yall xD
i dont think anyone here from what ive seen has said you need to memorise any specific rotation, the only thing you need to hit 1600/1800 is awareness
even by just cceing
stop important casts like poly / hex etc
u can win a lot
track drs
oh well ty guys anyways ❤️
at 1k you could unironically not be pressing finishing moves and still climb if you're doing everything else right
i have diagnosed OCD btw, so thank you all for being understanding, maybe yall are right & im just too hyperfocused on it, just want the video to be perfect. instead i'll try to explain how there are so many variables & just provide a few different examples
Fast question
if i fight against arms/ret/disc i should focus prey? I think is bad idea but second dps abuse
hmm maybe mine's worse? im on meds for it but it's still really bad some days
we even had a guy with brain damage here who got 2k1
it got worse for me with covid tho
my hands feels like sand
didnt arms get its endure pain gigabuffed this season? id say kill ret
tbh i would kill ret too
especially with how many goes we have now we can unironically have multiple goes in each divine protection cd window lol
arms is a bad train target unless u are a ranged
oh is this meant to say focus priest? i feel like that'd be pretty bad especially with just how many cds disc has now
yea
Well ret is the best options
i cant believe we went from legion disc to this, it became so much less fun to play
do u remember shadowlands s1 dpriest? was even worse, and not in the good sense
I literally
hit 1800 in first few days of sl for the set and uninstalled lol
entire xpac just seemed off before the season started and the season itself was so fucking yikes
well u wont lose anything tbh
stlll recall how not using any defensive before a sap was a lose condition cuz u would die insta
i mean ngl i kinda wish i got one of the plate sets
the one with the hood,, kinda the only set from SL i like
i just got the leather one
but really i wished the s1 plate one too
but in s2 got the edgy plates one
that was the one i got
the leather one looked odd to me idk i didnt vibe with the hat / shoulders much
tbh only set i really use pieces from is ls7 because i like the shoulders / gloves
What are the biggest issues of assa and outlaw rn?
i just wish i got the hood skull set one idk i just vibe with it
If i ever see one in literally any of my games ill let you know
the plate SL one
Assa is really, really squishy unless you commit like Evasion alone on trying to brawl. Law Is no longer the defensive beast and it's just discount warrior, they still good tho
do u have a picture?
its proving extremely hard to actually find it on wowhead or anything else weirdly enough so this pic of a tauren will have to suffice
only pic i could find
looks good on like,,, any model that isnt a tauren,,
ah found it
ig im dumb
and SL s4 was class specific
and the pic above was pala set lol
but the dk sl s4 set goes kinda hard imo
ahhh that one
yeah that is a mix
the guy got 2k1 and xmogged stuff to that cr
so got both appearances for both classes
i got the elite scythe in that season i recall
nah the tauren looks kinda lame i just like the pure dk set
rare example of a dk set that isnt just a bunch of a sharp points with skully skulls everywhere idk
honestly i feel like im in minority because aside from like, druid elite set pants and gloves, i kinda hate every elite piece for every class this season lol
thought dk was and edgy class like dh
yeah but have u ever looked through the dk sets though
SL sets were bad designed in s3-4 tho
audible bruh sound
straight goofy
Combined with the fact that Assa also has basically no burst, which means no real go's lol. Your options are spread pressure and slightly more spread pressure. The rhythm feels very weird to me still
assa just plays by passive damage rn
ppl will notice they will start dying after like 2m
I understand where you're coming from man. For PvP though, it's better to understand WHY a rotation would happen the order that it would ideally happen in. Not so much the rotation itself
If you understand the interactions that are happening that make the rotation "ideal," you'll be able to better do damage when things inevitably don't go perfectly
ok tysm ❤️
just a side note one thing i see low cr sub rogues do too often is let rupture fall off
it really adds up over a game
ironically i'm really good at keeping rupture up aha
And also if you're a newer Sub player, don't let anyone tell you its a cakewalk. There is a lot you have to be aware of. At the end of the day, you need to watch videos of people who are great at the class, try to understand what they're doing and why, and then just get reps on reps on reps in. You're gonna lose a lot, its fine. Just try to learn and don't worry about rating.
the hardest part of low mmr sub is having to change your plans around people triple dr stunning etc lol
which isn't me downplaying it, its genuinely irritating to have to do
Tip that works for me, especially when I'm learning something new in the game, is to literally talk out loud to yourself as you're playing. Talk yourself through what you're doing, what the enemy is doing, if they have trinkets, where your healer is, etc. Do it in that kind of neutral factual way that you see top streamers doing it, not in a hyped up way. Info in info out. It really helps to slow things down.
^^
also ngl i kinda hate thieves bargain bc ive always tracked enemy cds relative to mine and now its just weird
is the target not dotted? rupture or garrote
its all up? kidney then spamming stuff till 5 points to envenom
i dont wanna have to install cd tracker seems lame
im inside kill window and i have ER up? er with shiv then envenom
ty
Yw gl
Hell I open up differently depending on what class I am opening up on, if they have a trinket, if they have defensives left over, if they can use those defensives in a stun, how much energy I have, if I am about to die, etc
if the guy trinkets the kidney i usually stop going and wait till dr fades off
to kidney again and then try to get the kill
Yup. And the only way you really start to figure out what you're able to do in any given moment is to get your ass whooped a few times before you figure it out lol
how is it that i have 1gig net and atleast 1 of my solo rounds is a MS spike and a DC. all my drivers are up to date and my comp is fairly new. i dont understand its been like that ever since S2 started >.>
relatable
I've also been having some really weird issues
UI has been bugging out and MS spiking in matches too
just random MS spikes and itll either be 15-20 seconds and it keeps going or i dc and gotta log in again its so ridiculous
We switched ISP about a year ago and my baseline MS went from 23 to 57 😦
fiber gig
fiber makes the play
a pve friend said had a lot of issues joining his raid sometimes cuz he lacked the fiber so got very high lag spikes
and he is from spain, has money to afford stuff but lives outside the city
he even sent me a pic from his house and envirioment lol
The burst seems quite random
Sometimes it does 90-0
Sometimes it does just okay
can confirm
had a rdrood deleted yesterday for that but the useless fuck didnt purged a lock w bop after that round REEEEEEEEE
FUCK
we are away in the queue
ROGUES WHEN
they gonna be like yeah we didnt have enough time next patch
REEEEEEEEEE

are we going to still need secret tech even after 4 set?
idk sub needs a rework compared to other specs
only thing i think is designed really really lame is assa
outlaw can be tuned
im just shocked dk hasnt been reworked
no way assa needs one the most
Oh you dont think assa needs rework the most you mean?
I mean uhdk could be S+ tier and itd still need a rework imo, just because no matter what the numbers are the design is just such a mess
assa needs the rework the most
oh right thats what i said though iajsfas
sub is fine, outlaw just needs numbers tuning imo and assa design has gone downhill and should be rolled back i think idk
imo if outlaw is reworked
they need an entire patch
rlly hated RNG wise rework from legion
Honestly I really just miss legion design for all the specs ngl
I mean honestly a lot of specs have just gone downhill since legion lmao, frost mage rn is literally just spamming lance for half the game
legion design is the thing fucked most the spec themselves
yeah but relative to legion i wouldnt say its gotten better
stuff like clASs fAnTAsY restricted a lot of shit
Legion and pre legion are very very different, whereas legion to now is just legion but worse
id rather have old sub design back for sure
think WW monk was improved in legion
uhdk became actually fun too
but some shit was fucked up like sub, sure
survival is really cool
bring back combat
they just did the spec around dices xd
honestly aside from the old killing spree animation [holy shit what a downgrade] i liked the outlaw change
bring back extra melee swings that would be dope lol
i preferred rtb as a main mechanic to just waiting for red combat insight
bring back combat defensive
Readiness?
ghostly strike dodge would be dope
that one
+dmg +dodge always up
honestly id settle for an unnerfed elusiveness or whatever its called
it was a discount monk ignore harm
every defensive is welcome now imo if we lack self healing
I want something new and not shadowy for sub lol
I disagree, we need MORE shadowy shit for Sub
fully embrace the power of the finisher killer rogue
cuz right now we're just Dance Rogue
Bleed Rogue, Dance Rogue and Sword Rogue, my favourite trifecta
we always were dance rogues though its just we didnt glow purple lol
we've just stopped having to take breaks to breathe between dance sessions now
boring
whats the bis gears for sin and sub
vers mastery for sub
vers/mastery all the way
which basically means the pvp gear mostly sucks
you can go for matching with Trophy wpvp gear for the Vers/Crit pieces
only 2 tier pieces gives mastery, so is it better to have 2 piece instead of 4
is %20 evis crit dmg worth over extra mastery? I cant calculate
2 peices of mast is worth like 8-10 percent
Finisher damage then you lose on versa dmg potentially
plus shadowstrike is big pump
braindead moment
forgive me
tbh i have no idea how people are hitting for so much evis idk if the ppl here who are hitting 180k just have 4pc already or what
i hit like 120-130k max with the shadow evis after included
i have two tier item from hc raid and two from pvp i'm trying to make it worth but i guess having more mastery with 2pc is better i guess
Weapon proc, Danse stacks , flag potentially
i think it happened in ss
just 2 pc right now but almost every slot has mastery lol
rip
i honestly hate how the purple mastery pvp ring gives less mastery than blue lmao
83% mastery right now think i could get more lol
since shoulder pvp gears are shit, do we just get lifebound embellished shoulder?
can you link armory please
you can just craft 450 ilvl life bound gear with no embellishments
2k+cr and ofc blizzard is allowed to give me players that are 1400cr you wait 35minutes for a q to just get something like this Ive had a mmr issue to where I cannot gain rating anymore on sub forcing me to play assass overall solo shuffle is just the most dumb thing in life if it was gone arenas would at least have variety but sense people are ...
I like this guy
You don't need to watch movies. You know he will complain

eventually when we have enough sparks and catalyst I wanna try out 4 piece tier + crafted vers/mastery shoulders, 2x ring, neck
versus
2 piece tier (chest + legs) with crafted vers/mastery shoulders, helm, 2x ring, neck, glad gloves
both with infurious boots and possibly the mastery embell
I’m going for 4 pc looks good to me.
tbh i rlly liked backflip rogue
now the backflip is nerfed af
but think is still playable with real manuv gone
yeah
when actually did dmg outside dances
imo that is the problem w sub rn
feels like souless

well that was when it felt like everyone was playing assa iirc
also
i love waiting 30 minutes for an SS, win 2 rounds and then someone rage quits
+30 points on my 0cr alt yay back to the FUCKING QUEUE HAHA WOOOOOO
30 CR LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
how he was able to play like that?
he memorizes every cd time and the angle of the shade within the button to figure it out
duh
pales in comparison to bicmex eyeballing the locations of the stars in the sky and calculating where they'll be in 300 years to decide his next move
those guys will be homies if they plays in the same region imo
tbh i think bicmex might be the first streamer ive watched where its genuinely been like "wow this guys insane in both senses" because of just how deep and accurately his thought process is
i think his team already has a hunter player
look from a skirmish, i did more dmg than a warr
yeah, jellybeans
bicmex come here to talk sometimes
even was congratulating a guy for a match against him
oh thats embarrassing hopefully he doesn't see me saying he's insane,,
oh well
whaazz is also fun to watch but he just gives off menacing aura whenever he's talking, goblin moding on god
i miss the wod streams tbh
we have r1 here descending from heavens everyday
very chill when they talk imo
at least i recalled here raz, bicmex and mud
but mud mostly trolls
lol
mud is evil
and his class is evil
for being rogues
I feel like r1s are usually pretty chill, I guess when you're consistently top 0.1% you dont feel like you have to constantly 'prove' you're the best
players who are glad xp but cant get past that are usually the worst for ego ime
mud if you read this you are evil and your class is doo doo
like flarkness
😎
or cdew
"first they came for the rogues and I did not speak out"
not mud but just go fury
arms and fury both allright tho
yeah but fury is better rn + you dont have to be as on the ball with utility and stuff bc you can easily just zugzug in SS side note can they buff banner or something jeez
or at least like
idk, ping makes banner miserable
getting full cloned with banner out makes me die inside a little bit more
im just ignoring pain and jumping straight with smash bladestorm in burst
chose the bladestorm talent w avatar
so imagine how pressuring is to avoid being cced
83 in pvp or outside. And that 200k evis was in rotten?
Tbh i havent played warr this season what, what motivated the arms players to go down the tree for shockwave
did slam get buffed?
nah
is with the cc nerf imo
so they can micro cc more now
they are using the bleed build
and some mastery
it got increased from 2s to 3s duration in 10.1 I think
jeez this guy is insane. is he r1 dk?
in pvp and that evis was dark brew
tempest build, yeah?
yes
yep
okay, okay. weird. I got 86 but haven't seen evis that high )
I see where that ego comes from than
It is absolutely fried that blizz made the pvp strongbox give you ANOTHER thing to open when you open it
idek wtf these crest fragments do
that guy is the sleeper rogue himself
i mean tbh with flark tho my point still stands bc like
always finding gold
he's not consistently r1
so seasons where he struggles he's probably struggling with not egoing to compensate and stuff idk
I didn't even knew he ever was. There is petkick and mes
I'm 3 weeks behind this patch and got vault and conq cap this week. I know I should wait till reset to buy anything so I don't get a duplicated bis, but everytime I lose a game...
Who?
shadenox
a very toxic dk
which always complains around him
and harasses ppl
Flark?
yes
The first time I found out about flark existence, he was bitching about Hazzed 😄
Idk if hazzed ever were r1, but he was a lovely youtuber
I’ll have to check him out
then I saw him bitchin on dk discord. Trolled him a little about his 2h long "guides" 😄
But yea, the guy is very toxic. Even managed to surpass my ex wife in this category, lol
i can tell you like to fish
INSTA QUEUE AS A DPS
1 guy decides "nah"
best feeling
Some of these healers need to attend pillar humping school FFS
that is a meme already
when i see i can sap someone, i vanish > sap them right? or is there a better way to save my vanish
u can also sap in dance
u need to be in stealth to sap tho, so no
gotta use something to do it
oh dance ofc ofc tyty
You can’t ‘see’ you can sap someone
Unless you cheap shot or gauged first
Followed by a blind
you can with the unitincombat addon
oh weird i see it all the time even when i don't set it up
Then the addon probably is broken
weird, cuz I dont see ppl leaving combat unless cc chain
In normal play it’s almost impossible to happen nowadays, a fear is the only chance
maybe it's cuz i'm still super low cr lol but it happens 2-3 times every match
Since fear still somehow lasts long and may fear you 2000 miles away if unlucky
fr
no i mean it works if i get to them & sap them
shadowstep
prob sleeper druid 😄
Also I don’t think step dance sap in this scenario is that good anyway, unless your teammate is doing crazy dps with lots of cd on
You basically trade step and dance for 2s more cc
And it’s possible they are engaged again before your step dance sap
if they're a night elf then a surprising amount of the time you can lol
wym hope? sub is one of the best specs in the game, assa struggles in shuffle but is fine otherwise, outlaw just kinda sucks tho
outlaw was so good the first few days of the season tho
tfw u dont scale at all with gear
nah bro outlaw is fine you just have to follow my 400 page powerpoint and make sure you're nailing your scrunklyboppers every time you can
probably shoulda been a warning that the current pve outlaw damage profile is 40% damage procs and trinkets
and 60% the outlaw doing dps
Hope for Assa I mean

Idk what I was doing wrong with the 4 poison build but I was bottom dam regularly. With bleed build and the wpvp dagger and crafted boots I'm cranking every game now
rly u do more dps with an aoe build in a full melee lobby?
We don't really get an actual meaningful go until someone gets in execute range but its great sustained
doggy pfp but catty on the inside,,
does the sustain actually matter tho? r people rotting
on god,,
cause like, a feral or aff or boomkin in that lobby would be doing 60k dps easy
so the question is much of the cleave damage is padding
Lol its been working fine with casters so far too. Not as good obvi but still feels the best to me so far
its all bleed damage so yeah lol
i mean like, peoples health bars arent staying near full and healers r ooming when i say rotting
cause when i face boomkin/feral lobbies those guys r doing like 60-80k sustain rot
and thats enough to slowly move hp bars down and burn healers mana bars
trading envenom damage for crimson tempest which is just another dot that wont kill any1 just seems troll to me
u have even less impact on the game
I mean yeah? lol people get topped off sure
are people getting meaningful envenoms?
Under 35% hp the bleeds deal 45% increased damage. AoE Shiv during that and its another 20% for 8 seconds
aoe shiv? are u regularly getting multiple members of the enemy team under 35% hp at the same time?
idk i just feel like normally when a target hits 35% hp you dont really care about rot because your goal is to slam as many big hitting spells into that one dude to win the game as possible
damage to other targets at that point is mostly going to waste
Garrote, Rupture, Tempest, Bonespike, and Internal Bleeding from a Kidney with the Shiv buff and healing debuff crank at that point
I just meant aoe shiv talent.
That 20% is like 29% if the damage stacks ontop of each other
I mean is envenom closing out games for you? I wasnt having any luck with it
its not about damage to everyone else. Single target its still going to have the same effect
right but would you not have bigger harder hitting spells with the other build for that dude under 35% hp
idk if it works it works, sins "rot" damage has just mostly been superflous this expac
the point of rot is burning a healers mana pool and constantly pinging multiple people to half hp or lower so u can target swap them or are in danger of bursting them down in a stun
if the healer isnt struggling to out heal it then it usually doesnt really matter
ur better off just hard smashing a single target
like feral was a very good "rot" spec in s1, but that was because it was doing 50k-60k sustain rot with sustain aoe MS
in an all melee lobby you can at least maintain wound on everyone fairly easily probably
you could do that with the poison talent too tho
ye probably
idk everytime i see people try to play sin as an aoe bleed spec in pvp it usually just ends up looking like a much worse feral druid
maybe its better now then it was
I mean yeah Assa should be having bleeds up on multiple people all game long. Crimson just adds another layer, and also lets you throw some aoe without having to switch targets
Also this build runs wound/crippling so thats also contributing to the rot
I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, but there's very few points in the game where Assa should be doing this for myriad reasons lol
I mean assa has always been the ape a target spec
wdym
Right lol
it doesnt take long to reapply bleeds
thats literally how sin played last season
then you go back to pumping muts and envenoms
aping 1 target
rupturing a target is the same as just like, pressing rend as warrior, it doesn't take any real time commitment and you can just go back to hitting the kill target
yea im mostly questioning the build path of commiting many talents to "rotting" with aoe bleeds and giving up what i feel like are some fairly substantial ST damage increasing talents
not so much rupturing other targets
sin mostly did that for energy gen
The most new player unfriendly part of assassination is just throwing knife to slow + keep poisons up so your bleed + poison proc effects go off
like to slow a priest going in to fear your healer, or if someone is apeing your healer etc
but if it works for u it works so keep playing it
everything else is pretty natural you just dot and hit
I personally don't feel like the ST build was impactful at all, but I'm also behind on gear. Outside of maybe an anima charged shiv buffed envenom, envenom isnt ending games for me
I mean you're not gonna 1 shot people its just about the combination of cc + MS effect + rot pressure + single target damage that assa wins through
played 2s today after a long time
started at 0 and ended in 1k5
got the 1k8mmr lobbies and got fucked by survs
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Right, and I guess what I'm saying is that the single target/burst damage is lacking so hard right now that it makes more sense to me to really lean into rot pressure via the full bleed build Shade posted.
The biggest adjustment for me is holding blind or bomb until later in the game instead of using them earlier. But then again, there's no real reason to use them earlier, because we don't have a bursty go anymore
how strong were they?
2s is a bit of a dance. If you have a burst spec on your team in 3s to blow someone up, the full aoe bleed build is contributing more than ST I think. But we'll see how it goes as the season goes on
The thing is though, as well as the ST damage being fine, stuff like crimson tempest is just gonna be pad really
especially in SS where, at lower ratings even more so, games end before they get super deep into dampening. Specs that have a lot of aoe pad damage but no finishing power suffer
sounding a bit like a broken record but you can take a peek at uhdk to see what I mean
Lol I getcha, but I dont see how tempest bleeds are any more or less padding than garrote or rupture?
The garrote and rupture, as well as giving you some rot pressure, also give you a lot of energy regen
so your single target damage is being bumped up in addition to the rot
Fair point
if you're struggling with the single target build, check the uptime on your poisons
because if you're not reapplying them with FoK or poison knife you're losing a lot of energy
Ok nice I'll def check that
helps to make a focus knife macro
then you can just right click on gladius or w/e, throw the knife, and swap your focus back to whatever you want it on without having to fiddle with targeting much
So how or why is damage from deadly poison better than initial dam + aoe bleeds from Tempest?
also helps hugely in 2s for quickly stopping stuff like priest crossing map to cc'd healer to fear them
for me struggled a lot, cuz i needed to telegraph a lot the fkn DM
and i had not 2set
cuz i was starting fresh
I mean I didn't say that, I'm not sure how the numbers compare, but the total kit for the ST build is stronger and has double lethal + nonlethal poisons as an added draw
Numbing + crippling is also obnoxious
and i had problems with dr tracking
has 2 addons in gladius plates and one was overlaying
also is it just me or does anyone else wish all cc had unique visuals
the blue swirly circle is used for like 3 different skills on different drs
nah that wasn't the issue tbh
my problem is one addon was doing dr stuff as secondary
so i had 2 addons tracking them at same time
and one is misplaced
yea sorry was hijacking for my own complaint bc i have endless
im like one more xpac away from drinking monster white on my lawn mower reminiscing about how the game used to be
True true. Right now I'm feeling like the pure damage output is outweighing the utility and advantage of the poison build, but time will tell. The small agility buffs for having rupture up in the bleed build also helps with ST dam indirectly too

Haven’t tip more than 10g 😂 usually it’s done in 10 min
here i have a lot of scammers which want dracothysts
and are tipping like 3k
and worth like 5 in mats itself
is the dummy bugged or like
why are my secret tech's only hitting once
cant understand why it hit once
huh nvm im dumb details just doesnt detect the 2nd and 3rd hits at all, weird
about scammers, enjoy this:
recipe costs around 20k to craft
"here, take 3k and make that for me, pleb"
XDDDDDDD
Nah, public
around 90% of the public work orders on my server are either "no materials" or "some", and the "some" are like "here, take the materials that cost 1g, now craft my item that costs around 15k in materials"
Didn't even know u can put order with no materials
I play only from legion, but this is the first time I literally dont know how 50%+ stuff in df works
well, now I know why my orders r done in a few mins with no tip)
dont get what ppl wins doing stuff almost for free
Idk how crafting is work. i guess there is a reason.
But its not like Im greedy. Typical pvper doing wq with gold reward so I can buy wep enchant 😄
I see a good tip and I’ll guarantee the gold ⭐️ that’s how I do it
Going off of 5-1 high to 0-6 was rough.
Im almost at that point where I dont care if its 5-1 or 0-6. I just want to play the game
and not hitting dummy for 30 min straight in valdraken
Yee. At least with 0-6 sometimes people shittalk you. And that means you take a moral W over them. 
Actually, I rarely see shittalk in ss. even when me or some1 is 0-6. Compare to m+ community back in the days
i started vaping this week, & everytime i exhale i make the stealth sound
Yay. I got a shiny pokemon then!
Smoke bomb would be more appropriate.
ahaha true
just got a guy which called another one 1k cr xp cuz dred a blind
and the guy was losing hard
even worse, was the healer
Loser or shittalker?
Healers are usually the saltiest in my experience. I guess it has to do with the downside of instant queues - poor priests have no time to cool off from the previous match, not like dps chads.
yeah
healer life is fucking misery
who tf cares about SS trashtalking
Some called me a clown rogue, i just honked. 
that mode is the ultimate proof about don't being fkn boosted ingame
if he just complains for losing then its shit
btw won 4-2 and got 10 cr
fuck this lol
I saw a screenshot on r/worldofpvp with 6-0 giving 0 cr.
Got a tier on my lock 🤷🏻♂️ forgot he even had vault rewards
ye ok u can go 6-0 and get 0 points if u have absolute demon mmr compared to your cr
wasn't that bad dude
people need to stop being completely lost and realize their mmr and cr matter
One day i think i have to realize i suck on rogue and play my lock. 😞 sucks because rogue is easily favorite class way above the rest.
But i’m so much better at lock and war.
im going 2s w assa
rlly feels nicer
but not when i got an enh, a surv or a destro
If i don’t kill someone in my burst or they trink and get away, it’s pretty much the end of me.
Enh fury and destro was the worst so far.
fury was ass too
but was winnable tbh
an enh hitted me by 250k in a match in 1 blow
It's so tanky as well. Looking for them totems in chaos of ss is such a pain. 8T
Outlaws under 40% winrate now
in Rated Solo Shuffle
surprisingly 50.4% in 3s and ~47% 2s
huge respect to anyone who can get to over 2.3 on outlaw in solo shuffle
@tawny kestrel big respect bro
wut
i just stepped to a disc behind pillar from enemy team on BRH
guy just slow walks out into open looking for me
and i die to dots lol
lmao
from 20%
Raz is a rogue god, doesn't count
raz congratulating raz for having raz winning as outlaw
that reminds me
Raz, does anyone get salty over you as Outlaw?
in RSS?
saying its op or something along those lines
The trick is to play tauren.
think my mog blended into the greys,,
*panda
ty
4hrs 27mins till work, cant sleep, and thinking of playing Outlaw in RSS
despite the daunting
sub 40% winrate
sleep when you're old, get on and play some outlaw
once i was queuing in late night but sleeping impulses won over me
i was closing a lot the eyes
so i just closed the game and went zzzzzzzz
lemme translate that for foreigners
yeah warm af
nobody and i mean absolutely nobody thinks outlaw is op
yeah when someone talks about miles or fahrenheit i just need to convert it
metric system goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Yeah
Warlock played really poorly the first game
He ran to mid without setting up gateway or demonic TP
and proceeded to get run down by Feral and DH
Yep
The DH and Lock were cucked of a win
last second
when MW monk quit right before either of us died
could anyone share their action bar setup?
Should shadow blades be used with tech? Or shadowstrike evi spam?
if u are playing the right side of the talent tree shadowblades is an awful cd
if u are playing rotten its a good cd
should be used a few before u actually wanna do damage, assuming u are playing thiefs bargain
Yeah using rotten
Without 2pc just to get it down for when i do have 2pc lol
I don’t know why pika says gloomblade is horrible. Seems to hit way better than backstab
I’m actually using the build your armory had raz. Except i changed improved storm to shadow step.and got rid of the poison for subterfuge
gloomblade is good for sure
esp when some ppl still play danse macabre + lingering shadows
dont think many ppl realize how bad danse macabre is as rotten
flag is 10x better
and if u dont wanna play gloomblade u can drop lingering shadows too
Thinking about dropping sepsis for the second point in lingering
Yeah with rotten you just literally spam 1-2 things so don’t see it increasing Danse enough
this is what im using right now
u playing full pve build or what
pve?
your sub talents are quite literally the rotten pve build
wouldnt take sepsis
rest is fine
yeah i got rid of sep just now for second lingering
def not nob
no
BUQAAWulQAmRd/c4Iy2r7VOUFAAAJAAAAAAAQgkkIJikIJJIJEkEJiEIJJNQSJJBSCBAAAA
this is what i play atm
its pretty nice
thanks
can you give me what rotation youre looking to get off (in a perfect world)
you won't like it
hell anything really working toward ranked eventually
@rancid delta
ty
np
my alter ego is a dog
does lfr gear works with those whelp flightstones?
it is upgradable
to see if i can use a lfr gloves meanwhile
yeah, then i'm getting them
to see if i can rush 4set
i almost got 1k6 today from 0 at 2s
or maybe can get 1k6 w gloves for tomorrow if i can and then watch the chest
hmmmmmmmmm
What are they upgradeable too, because sacrifice 30+ ilvls definitely is NOT worth the primary stat loss. That’s massive
well
monks are using 2set from former season
its something
btw
got one from lfr
now i need to see how to upgrade it lol
Is Slimy Expulsion Boots any good?
do decent dmg w toxic patch yeah
yeah i see most DHs are doing that not a lot of other classes
i guess the major problem is which other piece to craft for toxic patch is very much depended
you know based on what vault gives you for tier
Can you have double life bound gear with same effect?
Like when you have 90% HP, mastery increase, can i have double of that?
How do you get one at Saturday lol
mere luck
tested them
the difference in regular dmg in minimal
baseline with the agi loss
yeah, this will go fine tho
u move by mouse?

only W and wheeeeeeel like a car raider?
both mouse and movement arrows lol
never got used to move with my left hand

are there people who dont use mouse at all to move?
im kinda using both mouse and wad
I leveled up a second rogue out of boredom so I can play and gear towards assa, it fits our comp better as well. Can someone please share some well known guides or assa rogues I can watch play to learn the spec?
gz!
next week boys
I wonder, can u get a tier piece from this week quest for 5 dung?
infurious
how you got so much mastery then 🤔
buy the right gear
i have same stuff except life bound shoulder instead of signet and im like at 92
5 scalewarden pieces
oh didnt notixe
its bis
so scalewardens are more mastery?
than conquest/honor
didnt know
cool
its insane, looks like we'll get like 105% in the end or some shit 
How many shuffles have you done already and how is it possible going below 1k D:
Man, fury wars are literally just exploding me:
wow, 3d time in a 6 month?
pve neck? 1k mast is huge
i hear things like this almost every game lol
anybody else here feels like this gearing system is fucked because there are always insentives not to buy stuff with your conquest points / worldpvp points / crafted gear tokens?
No
Ya but you’re learning (I hope) which doesn’t matter. Also, the MMR is insanely hard capped and making it even tougher for people to climb. EX, Whaaz, r1 player in the world, barely 2400.
hang in there bro, you got this
Sometimes you just have to change the class and admit that something is not for us or we have a lower intellectual ability
Or you're just doing something wrong because you don't know. Watch the videos and read the FAQ
record your gameplay and watch it back. if you can see what you are doing wrong and need to improve on it will help greatly
Are you just getting focused and dying
IIRC someone made a super tanky outlaw build
or even share it with us so we can see what youre doing
yea, post something here xD
"HAHAHAHAHHAHA U HAVE 200ILVL?????????? HAHAHAHHA"
They were matched with you by the system. What makes them think they are any better?)
what if they were 1500/1600 and he was 500, happens often xD
mmr doesnt allow that tho
@tawny kestrel you’re on Facebook 😅
Looking for solo have 30 minute in eu?
So stupid they have the rogue glad dagger crit.
Just waited 15 mins for arena que, pressed enter and nothing happened. Not i’m back in another 18 minute que 😒
Sometimes is 1 min, sometimes is 30 min
xD
When i should use shiv? Or shiv is usless on subrog?
in case you didnt know shiv applies your poison
but stronger
okay
it is written there!
if you have crippling on
also numbing can be applied if anyone even gives a fuck
i think
this miss enrage effect is utility? Against warrior or something?
XD
not cause of enrage, but cause of slow
I played frost mage in s1. The amount of mobility this fckers have is insane.
So once you get your second dagger, what enchant do you put on it?
the one i hated the most was a fkn arcane mage with my rog and monk
the fucker just didnt stopped blinking
i was like REEEEEEEE STAY STILL
you put sophic devotion on it
On both?
Classic 
XD
its whelpling?
ye
are you new to both rogue and sub?
like your first go at rogue is as sub?
he is playing rog for at least early year
is still weird
i had 0 xp as warrior and learned like in 1 and half week how to use it (even if was easy) and reached 1k8 in week 2
i played fine when i thought about priorities instead a rotation
for example using MS everytime when its up
else overpower, else ignore pain if is off cd else execute else thunderclap
worked well
I mostly see hyper discussing BiS gear and perfect scenarios but yet he's struggling at 1k. He's focusing on the wrong stuff for sure, afaik he has 10x more addons / weakauras for pvp than i do, i only use gladius xD
It's really hard for someone to go so low in around 250 games current season
if he would be at high ranking
he would know
there are not perfect scenarios
XD
almost always u will eat a cc in a burst window
I mean you can already see that at low 1400/1500 if playing double dps
ofc rating is deflated
Yeah for sure. I've been playing the game for years so i can somewhat pick q class and do okay with it (1500/1600 rating) withing 1/2 weeks
But since i get frustrated way too fast with pvp I tend to stop as soon as I get the elite transmog
Sameeeee
unless they bust the fuck up the class
Ret what
so i can play where i parked the char and climb EZ
yeah like w ret
fuck was funny
I got to 2.3 (almost 2.4) with ret in 1 WEEK
no way fucking rets would stand for a week
i still recall the outcry of ppl threatening with unsub if changes weren't applied at moment
imo hyper should go assa
if he dropped from 1k to 500 cr after 6 months playing min then maybe he need another floor
Yeah I'd agree
Play Assa until he gets the game awareness down. Ideally in 2s to slow everything down
yeah SS would be hell to play fresh as assa
tbh i wanna learn sub from scratches too, so i'm watching streamers
It's hell even not lol
Also I mean if I'm learning something fresh fresh I BG a lot before skirms and 2s
Honestly I have no idea how people play sub without coms lol
I guess it spanks so much right now it doesnt matter
Like unnerfed MA in SL S1 lol
(meanwhile im waiting here for buffs)
1 shot macro for sub as kyrian SL S1 (1 link megaupload 100% real no fake)
boo
I hated it.
I wanted to be with cool vampire bois!
But smurfs had the power of a god.
Vampire bois at the time.
Skeleton bois were alright tho.
sans
The shield protected me from sins crawling up my back
E E E E E E E
tbh i love s1 DF warr elite xmog
i'm not taking it anytime soon
hope they releases another decent xmog to get
ty @pale storm @fading blade @fathom dew
ty @fathom dew @pale storm
go assa
@harsh steppe ever thought about trying out another class?
nah fuck that
