you get an achievement 🙂

jolly sierra
#

first time?

jolly bear
#

this is my first season pvping so yeah

#

I got 1800 in solo shuffle

jolly sierra
#

dont get too impatient then

#

my 1st time reaching rival> duelist was like 3 years ago

#

xdd

jolly bear
#

Im hoping I can hit 2100 next season

#

it's just really really complicated and I'm definitely still a noob

jolly sierra
#

i have my problems too, this shit is a 2014 laptop, so freezes a lot or happens what happened some hours ago w the DC and CR dropping

jolly bear
#

can someone explain why sometimes when I spam sap or cheap while stealthed sometimes itll just randomly unstealth me and not cast

noble spoke
#

awwwww yisss, tomorrow is Southshore vs Tarren Mill, time for Roguey fun

wanton breach
jolly bear
#

okay so I'm not crazy

minor cape
#

can't play without fuge starege

vital void
#

3-3 -23mmr 4-2 +11 u love to see it , somedays shuffle just isnt it

terse echo
#

Why people are using Wound Poison while we have amplifying poison & hemotoxin for shiv?

karmic summit
#

Depends on your team

#

İf you dont have ms in the team it makes burst healing a lot easier

#

Making it harder to score killing blows

terse echo
#

Are they stackable? I mean are they stacking up to 50% healing reduction?

stable urchin
#

Whats looking good for 2v2 next season?

#

Is assa making a comeback?

wary spire
#

If tuning won't be completely bonkers sub will be the only real choice.

#

If we don't take preference into account.

sour charm
#

Just never que into any team with a posion dispel and assa will fuck
#believe

wanton breach
#

so no monks, druids, shamans or paladins?

vital void
#

no evoker either

wanton breach
#

those shouldn't exist to begin with

#

Still keep trying this season after 1800!

waxen meteor
chrome schooner
#

Yeah. Although to be fair ever since it became a stackable debuff it had a lesser impact on cleave because it very often falls and has to be restacked to 5

terse echo
#

I dont get it but i’ll try.

chrome schooner
#

What do you not get ?

waxen meteor
#

Yeah which part is confusing, it's quite straight forward

terse echo
#

Everyone is recommending hemo + wound for 2s. If i’ll choose hemo and they wont stack up, why should i use both of them?

chrome schooner
#

You shouldn't use Hemo

waxen meteor
#

I am not sure who is the everyone that recommends hemo

chrome schooner
#

Not everyone is recommending it either

waxen meteor
#

hardly anyone uses hemo these days

#

it's everyone's pick prior to 10.05 or sth

chrome schooner
#

Basically you only play Hemo if no other honor talent has any value in the match

waxen meteor
#

probably you were reading something a little bit dated

chrome schooner
#

Just for the extra ms sometimes

#

Ut it's rare

waxen meteor
#

even when you don't need disarm, control is king or others is probably better than hemo now

dark kernel
#

Anyone else tested ptr

#

I do not see how sub won't end up gutted

terse echo
#

I'm building my setup like that ; Dragon-Tempered Blades > Poisons (Amplifying - Deadly - Crippling - Atrophic or Numbing) > Hemo as PvP

Stealth Garrote > Serrated > Rupture > Kidney > Blood Fury + Trinket macro > Thistle Tea > Deathmark

  • Use Shiv at 40% or less enemy HP then kill
waxen meteor
#

You use shiv regardless of hemo

terse echo
#

Hemo gives 30% healing reduction for 9 seconds so i can keep it on enemy for 16 seconds. So its give me a chance to kill.

waxen meteor
#

It syncs with kidney cd in a way

#

it's not a lot of % difference than wound

terse echo
#

So i won't need amplifying poison anymore right?

waxen meteor
#

Way less people use amplifying poison this season

#

Your build (talent) and what you describing is more s1

#

Early S1 actually

#

I think we put the poison dmg talent behind long ago

chrome schooner
#

Also for some reason you have a point in Improved Wound Poison despite saying you don't use it

#

Flawed logic !

waxen meteor
#

I do use amplifying without wound talent when pairing with arm warrior in solo etc.

#

but majority of cases i still use wound

terse echo
waxen meteor
#

the point is, with that tiny % of healing reduction, it doesn't worth it

#

it worthe way less than bomb/cloak and disarm as long as you are not playing against 3 casters

#

cloak -> almost a bubble
bomb -> great chance to kill or force trinket
disarm -> we know what it means when we are at receiving end of it 🙂

waxen meteor
#

It feels quite good for sin

jolly bear
surreal barn
#

It’s not that - it’s bc I might already be queued to auto attack and with acrobatic strikes you can accidentally tap your opponent before being able to sap

#

It just prevents me from being an idiot

jolly bear
#

lmao no not him I’m talking about blizzard

jolly bear
surreal barn
#

Tab

#

Tab mid combat and if you were attacking it will just keep attacking

#

Like if healer comin out of blind and Im in dance and tab sap it can happen

#

Or if you right clicked a target far away by mistake and got close it would auto them, but spamming sap would prevent it if stopattack is there. I mean this is only if you’re a key spammer like myself

waxen meteor
#

oh nice game is kidding me

#

skirmish i queued 4 rounds

#

1 v 2
1 v 2
2 v 3
1 v 3

#

gotta be kidding me

jolly sierra

# waxen meteor

Not taking Shadowstep on Assa is the equivalent of lobotomizing yourself because you might become a genius if your brain works a little different than before

waxen meteor
#

Yeah I didn’t really even pay attention to rogue tree

languid ravine
#

I'm playing the most godlike Ive ever played tonight:
3-3 / 3-3

austere thorn
#

Hello
I just came back to prep for s3
Did they delete evokers yet?

surreal barn
#

Buffed

waxen meteor
#

tbh the skills look so confusing to me

jolly sierra
#

played SS again with ww

#

got back my CR

#

and a little more MMR

#

got it cuz a ret ragequitted a lot

tight eagle
#

I normally 2v2 with a MM Hunter, but I'm wondering how sub rogue does with a Healer? I'm worried I wouldn't do enough dmg on my own; is that warranted? Or with a good cc chain is rogue/healer 2's still good?

jolly sierra
#

sub works better with dps like a mage or a hunter

tight eagle
#

ok, bet. That's kind of what I was thinking

#

Frost or Fire mage?

#

Any other DPSers other than Hunter and Mage you'd recommend?

jolly sierra
#

frost hands down

#

an augvoker tho

surreal barn
tight eagle
#

That's kind of what I expected to be honest. Like just trying to line up CC and burst after you got the off target to trinket and use their defensive CD's

tight eagle
jolly sierra
#

go frost

surreal barn
#

Fire mage can fart and do big dam are you sure you were with a good one

jolly sierra
#

its more obnoxious to chase compared to fire as an opponent

tight eagle
#

I'll say I wasn't impressed with his damage lol

#

He seemed to have a big ego because he told me he usually kicks people after 1 match lol

surreal barn
#

Real easy to know burst time w fire mage too w/ combustion

tight eagle
#

yeah, likely he wasn't good thinking back on it. My favorite was pre-game he'd just say "I'm going to sheep the _____ as much as possible" lol instead of trying to coordinate any kind of chain with me

waxen meteor

my favorite after solo is when you beat someone. then they whisper you talking shit. and then log off before you can even reply /facepalm

quaint cedar
#

Ok, yeah, fang is super dead in pvp next season

waxen meteor
#

I was trying to respond but next queue instant poped lol

#

Not sure if it’s because too few sin rogue queues

uneven plaza
#

Just starting to mess around on rogue in pvp. Are all the specs viable? I'm currently playing outlaw

jolly sierra
quaint cedar
#

yeah I'm not bothered by it

#

farming fang adornments was a pain

surreal barn
#

Never farmed them lol

quaint cedar
#

I'm outlaw, every bit of damage helps lol

jolly sierra
#

but btw

#

hope fkn drakebreaker gear for next seaon

#

season. has a fkn dagger w vers mastery

surreal barn
#

It doesn’t

waxen meteor
jolly sierra
#

sporecloak and infurious

waxen meteor
#

Didn’t sporecloak get nerfed?

jolly sierra
#

yeah

#

but

#

it goes ironically buffed too

#

cuz it works like a mastery buff

#

basically

heals urself (untouched)
versa above 70% hp
absorb at low health (nerfed by 50%)

rotund fulcrum
#

There’s a vers mas dagger from the 2nd boss in new raid with 1 min on use

#

Haven’t checked what it does tho

jolly sierra
#

igira dagger yeah

#

but u need way too much ilvl to make it work

stoic spruce
#

Bro

#

They should give plunder armor back to outlaw

#

It's a blizzard style fix to a problem they created on purpose

#

Maybe not, I just remembered what it did and funny enough didn't reduce their armor amount.

#

Bring this back

jolly sierra
#

when i checked plunder armor in the first place

#

i thought it could strip the opponent and reduce their stats lol

quaint cedar
#

Wait there was a world where we had CDR on blind and cloak? lol wtf

#

Also would love to see plunder armor come back

stoic spruce
#

Plunder armor was the most okay pvp talent ever

stoic spruce
stoic spruce
#

We had a lot of cool shit compared to now

#

I like looking how abilities have evolved over expansions

#

A lot of times you go "we could really use this right now"

#

For example

#

I could really use this right now

halcyon timber
# quaint cedar Wait there was a world where we had CDR on blind and cloak? lol wtf

Combat had time off evasion / sprint / improved recuperator / reinforced leather for 50% more armor . Etc and some other neat talents I can’t remember. I think the talents were called Endurance for Combat back in those days. 10 sec kidney shot at one time, I think it was in cataclysm. Mace stuns were ultra goofy but warriors had something like that too if I remember.

Subtlety always had cheaper stealth abilities much like now, harder hitting stealth abilities, ignored armor through serrated blades / FW (back when it was 100%), hemorrhage as the cheap builder to apply sanguinary vein, hard backstabs. Yes in the old trees 30sec off cloak / vanish from subtlety elusiveness (i think it was, its been years),

Assassination had deadly brew / hard mutilates / ambush was useful and finally is again / lots of eviscerate and poison nodes back in wrath / bc. Cataclsym had hunger for blood which was weird and then vendetta came out at some point but I don't remember. I think they could refresh expose armor or had a longer lasting one or some jazz like that too.

#

Combat also had kick where it could silence instead and broke roots from sprint i believe

stoic spruce
#

I miss old Manueverability

#

Where sprint broke roots

spring bough
#

its a lot of fun pressing sprint now and going nowhere lol

stoic spruce
#

Boarding Party is a better speed talent than a pvp talent modifying sprint

exotic dove
#

So concerning Assa on ptr since sanguine blades talent is still breaking stealth I honestly think its not worth taking damage seems good without it. I don't want to deal with Assa teir set from this season anymore in talent form lol

halcyon timber
#

Agreed man, no idea what the direction is with it but probably a safe assumption. Would be nice if that was updated in the tooltip at least to let Assassins know before they poked around with it.

exotic dove
#

With further testing without sanguine blades the damage is still decently higher against a player compared to live. So whether its taken or not we will still feel better fo rsure

halcyon timber
#

Right on, that's a nice bump at least

exotic dove
#

Yeah this could change since tuning isn't complete but still a good positive too look too. One of the reasons for the positive net increase over live is internal bleeding also applying off rupture. I would like to use sangine blades but the bug is not worth

jolly sierra
#

i was healed from gnome disease

halcyon timber
exotic dove
#

That I actually do not know I want to say no

#

but not sure

halcyon timber
#

Right on, I just give a flip about all 3 rogues being solid and ending the arms race that this thread has unevolved into. Not "i'm better than you 😛 " nonsense. Just being solid, not "op" just solid.

exotic dove
#

It doesnt I read the talent on ptr it says only garrote and rupture that applies to venonous wounds

#

Yeah I want that too

#

All 3 being solid

halcyon timber
#

the infighting has to stop, bad enough other classes war against us. Don't need our own kind doing it too.

exotic dove
#

It does but thankfully we are no where as bad as hunters are

#

with infighting

halcyon timber
#

hunters will argue over stale bread

#

and Dh think if the hunt doesn't 70%-0 people that it's "bad". MFs are doing 50k ticks of dots and 300k hits from direct damage.

exotic dove
#

Yeah they wont be happy unless the Hunt one shots all the time

halcyon timber
#

saw ragefire getting bumped back up to where it was pre nerfs, going to be dangerous along with the potential triple burning taco bell fire stacks and lots of healing from all that too.

#

I try to keep an eye on other classes so we aren't coming up guessing what the heck x class received

exotic dove
#

Yeah will have to adapt as usual. As far as the PTR goes I doubt anything will be added at this point outside of bug fixes and tuning. Overall the improvements to Sub and Assa are welcomed could there have been more yes but overall my Rogues are ready for next season. Seeing what they do tuning wise will let me know what I need to adjust build wise if possible.

#

Going to focus on live for end of season stuff now with friends in 2s and Solo Shuffle.

halcyon timber
#

Right on, i'm a bit busy or i'd play. I've been very spotty with how busy grad school is but definitely plan to actually play next season. Hopefully tuning isn't ridiculous and rogues avoid being stun bots

exotic dove
#

Oh forgot to mention Outlaw needs Armor pen I mentioned baking it in quick draw talent

#

on feedback thread

halcyon timber
exotic dove
halcyon timber
#

Can't remain that way and it's uncool. Shouldn't be "oh well Outlaw friends".

exotic dove
#

It should not be like that I agree

#

just give outlaw armor pen

#

Outlaw losing find weakness was horrible

halcyon timber
#

Stunbot isn't fun at all, I know we bump heads with the pvers but when they come up with silly tools and try to prune rogue stuff out because "it's not a dmg increase" type arguments it spills over into our world.

#

Yeah i'm not who the pvp team is or who makes decisions but I wish we had a better way of showing them / requesting that to them specifically.

exotic dove
#

Blizz just need to be more transparent too

halcyon timber
#

Tune outlaw high > they crush clothies and then they gripe and get nerfed. Return Outlaw ARP by some way and it's good for fighting anyone without crushing Clothies. I see no issue here.

exotic dove
#

I am going to mostly play Sub and Assa for example like always but probably not great for Outlaw to turn into another MM Hunter having weak damage against plate and super high absurd damage on cloth

#

So giving outlaw armor pen would be way better

halcyon timber
#

Agreed, plenty of talents to add that onto or whatever in their own unique way.

#

heck, could even be dispatch activates it or something I dunno if they are too worried about outlaw being cool

#

Our Outlaw friends should be wanting to play, not dreading it.

exotic dove
#

Yep 100%

halcyon timber
#

Really happy with the class tree though. Lots of different options to customize on and glad a lot changed for our specializations instead of "1 style/focus"

uneven grove
#

there are classes which don't have dedicated designers rn anyway

stoic spruce
#

Yeah was good

long shore
#

Some toxic healers in my shuffle blaming the sub rogue saying their damage is low… when they are not watching DRs and making enemy healer immune to stuns

#

How would you respond?

#

“Trash sub rogue Low dmg, healer claims he does more dmg than the sub rogue”

noble spoke
#

"You procced Precog"

languid ravine
worldly girder
#

man sub in shuffle is so miserablew

#

people putting random stuff on stun DR, constant pseudo CCs cuz we have no clean cross

long shore
worldly girder
#

yeah thats exactly what happens lmao

#

warriors bladestorming every 30s or some shit while taking me 100-0 during it

#

i feint it and i still take mad dam

long shore
#

Yup and you realize the kill target got triple DR lasso by the ele shaman in your team

#

So he is immune for the next 22 seconds

#

The sub rogue life bro

#

Just as DRs were about to reset 😅

worldly girder
#

night and day diff between 3s and shuff too

#

finally got 1800 set in shuffle though im def not pushing on rogue in shuffle

twin burrow
#

anyone messing with big ER and goremaws during dance with rotten

surreal barn
#

At one point I did but it was nerfed in a patch soon after

twin burrow
#

it still feels super strong.. hmm.. also.. my sepsis is hitting like a truck

surreal barn
#

Tbh better to just rotten sepsis and us PV on goremaw

minor cape
#

😏

long shore
#

I feel like you can’t say mean things about peoples mom though. The risk of getting banned suspended is too high

#

Probably just /ignore and move on 😦

#

Sensitive culture these days

twin burrow
#

ah the rotten works with sepsis i didnt realise thats why its truckin

#

thanks z

#

do you guys KS->CS-CS in ur goes typically/ideally?

#

opposed to CS>CS>CS

minor cape
#

wait you guys use sepsis

#

what did i miss

minor cape
languid ravine
#

âlthough with short dance you kinda have to kidney first

vague verge
#

wanna start pvp again, goal would be to get the glad mog 🙂 is assa or sub easier to get the rating for solo?

waxen meteor
#

some low cr lobbies are just miserable for sub

#

you actually feel easier in higher lobby

#

tbh even sin sometimes is the similar

waxen meteor
#

but you don't get glad from solo

vague verge
waxen meteor
#

you can get elite and unlock weapon

#

but that's it

vague verge
#

meant just 1.8k for transmog

#

sorry my bad

waxen meteor
#

1.8k you could do with either one, play with what you have more passion

#

1.8k solo is still a lot of zug zug, sin can be even easier

vague verge
#

yeah wanna go for easy this time, got older and had a long break from gaming in general 😄

waxen meteor
#

and you may randomly get some crazy teammate, so having bigger dmg is a lot easier for yourself

#

My Sin solo is around 2.2, it's not that bad.

#

Even it's in F tier from lots of tier list lol

vague verge
#

😄 oh then you're good

#

yeah gonna try my best to do the last levels and farm my gear... maybe it will work out

#

elite set looks really good this time

waxen meteor
#

well gear is very easy this season, especially we use a lot of craft gera

#

you don't even need to worry too much to catch up for gem

vague verge
#

sounds good, don't have university till next tuesday, so I got a lot of time to spend

languid ravine
#

I was 2.2k rating two days ago and today I am fighting with and against 1500 healers :^)

waxen meteor
#

Fuck, just about to nail next alt to 2100 and peopel quit

#

was 3 win of 3 rounds

#

Nice this number again

wary spire
#

I was at 2040, now at 1940. starege

waxen meteor
#

last week, my DH alt was 2099, then i kept losing to 189x

wary spire
#

Marvelous.

waxen meteor
#

now it's back to 1950 ish but anyway, i will try to finish hunter alt 2100 first

#

I think I was getting a bit mad playing dh

#

but now hunter is 2090 lol, same place yesterday once more

#

this game really hates me

#

and people quit when i got a arcane mage in my lobby :((((((((

#

I feel autowin when playing marksman in a mage lobby.... (especially fire or arcane)

surreal barn
#

Getting the 3rd shuffle rogue to 2.1k and being a little bitch instead of pushing main

#

And you’re right about assa in shuffle, yeah it’s harder to land a kill but the whole experience is more fun in the zug

waxen meteor
#

one problem is low lobbies is also healer

#

you die randomly

#

so you had to use CD in a condition you don't need to in high lobbies

surreal barn
#

This is true

#

But I’m running 46% versa no tier lol

waxen meteor
#

then when you really need CD, you don't have it anymore haha

surreal barn
#

I’m kinda tanky

waxen meteor
#

yeah, i saw a post in chinese, someone ranks 1st in NA solo as Sin

#

his opinion is as i shared last time, just go full vers

#

sin dmg will be good anyway

#

stay alive, dmg and cc then win

surreal barn
#

Yeah I’m topping the damage even with the few MM I’ve faced

waxen meteor
#

44% vers

surreal barn
#

But they may have sucked

waxen meteor
#

he is even using the dmg reduction poison

#

in most cases

#

44% vers, 38 mastery

surreal barn
#

lol we have same gear

#

Hilarious

waxen meteor
#

OMEGAKEKW so you are him

surreal barn
#

I have the head and wrist engineers versa

waxen meteor
#

If i didn't pause this season i would try this too

#

been missing gem spot so crafted rings!

surreal barn
#

Only reason I even bothered was to refresh assa before s3 since sub feels trash

#

I’m sure it will be meta but I can’t go back to that s1 playstyle

waxen meteor
#

you mean next season sin will be meta?

#

i don't even have ptr 🙂

surreal barn
#

Nah sub will be it trucks but it’s like even more cd dependent than now

#

Right now if you have a symbols and dance up you can spank

#

PTR? Shadow blades required

jolly bear
#

do you guys manually focus the healer every single arena?

#

or how do you do it

waxen meteor
#

yeah manually focus

#

but it's just a right click on arena frame

#

nothing too complicated

#

sometimes i focus on my teammate in case they don't communicate before gate opens

#

like who do we go

#

silence....

#

then sometimes i need to check his target way more often

jolly bear
#

yeah but im running out the gate trying to sap

#

so its hard to do that idk maybe im smooth brained

#

oh you know what

#

i move with my mouse thats why its hard

#

you just use W to run forward and your mouse is free

#

ima use auto run for a sec until it focuses lmao

surreal barn
#

As assa I’ve been stingy with my sprint, so if that warrior leaps to his death with no sap so be it

#

I usually just tab the healer or mouseover macro lol, I’d be better off using focus.

waxen meteor
#

oh my fucking god

#

another lobby for marksman

#

1:0 then another person quit

#

#)%(@%($#@^$_@(

languid ravine
#

everyone who plays a hunter log onto them right now

waxen meteor
#

it was already a 37 mins queue thanks

languid ravine
#

healers are ultra trash today

waxen meteor
#

imagine 37 mins queue for 1 round

languid ravine
#

:^)

waxen meteor
#

and 2cr

languid ravine
#

its okay you ll get there by 2025

jolly sierra
#

thinking in go ret today

#

with last reset inflation

#

now season is about to end

waxen meteor
#

they annouced?

#

so i think my screenshot before was right, everytime when there are 5 time walks straight, it's seaosn end

jolly sierra
#

they announced next patch for nov 16th

#

so our time is narrowed up

languid ravine
#

season end at Nov 7 according to some article

jolly sierra
#

enough for me to start pushing

#

*resume

waxen meteor
#

OK 2130 after instant queue

#

the aug totally dominated the game, but gladly i stole 1 win

jolly sierra
#

had a match like that

#

the aug lost 2 matches anyways

waxen meteor
#

aug in my lobby only lost 1, was quite good

#

but i kited the DH too easily

#

when aug runs too far, and dh chased to middle of the map....

#

i swapped and game over...

jolly sierra
#

oh

waxen meteor
#

I feel DH is very good against Mage, can chase them a lot easier than most melee specs

#

but very limited againt hunter

jolly sierra
#

imagine monks

#

which needs to chase a target

#

goes frost novaed sure, tiger lust

#

then the guy snares away and blink

#

hunters are good af kiting now as MM

#

the class which fucks them hard in that are rogs and warriors tho

#

cuz they can both stop them or insta reach them

waxen meteor
#

Yeah we are deadly to marksman

#

also one of best teammate for marksman

jolly sierra
#

ironically

languid ravine
#

first game I queue Outlaw I get a full smorc lobby with the 2.1rating UhDK having petstun on auto

#

:^)

#

and two weak ass holy priests

jolly sierra
#

queued with a dk match

#

which did like twice the overall dmg than other players

#

how tf i climb w that

jolly bear
#

dude framesort is op

waxen meteor
#

What is framesort concernedpopcorn

languid ravine
#

my hard melee Arms warrior thinks DH is the best target who has 2million selfheal, 20 mobility spells, can dodge stuns while blur has 1 minute cooldown and lets you dodge hard melee attacks from all sides

jolly sierra
#

dunno how ur matches are

#

but my last one got a 400 cr healer which blamed the dk for healing like shit

#

the guy ended 0-6

languid ravine
#

I got another 6-0 marksman where two holy priests constantly get outplayed somehow

#

even the fresh demolock got 2 wins kek

jolly sierra
#

bruh is either the 6-0 healer or dps today

languid ravine
#

feels like nobody is ever adapting

#

like the Ret is always holding W with monitor turned off

#

the feral doesnt even try to fakecast or play around spell reflect

#

just send it anyways

#

lmao

surreal barn
#

Can just macro into burst

jolly sierra
#

won 4-2 against an aff which was made of paper

#

the problem is overall i lost 30 CR today

#

going monk to see if im lucky

waxen meteor
#

lol did a 70k dps game with aug teammate

#

I am DH

jolly sierra
#

lol

thick slate
#

can someone please briefly tell me the opener with echoing reprimand build ?

#

Im overcapping on CPs

jolly bear
#

sub?

thick slate
#

ye

jolly bear
#

idr how I would even overcap

thick slate
#

then tell me how its done

jolly bear
#

it depends on what talents you have like first dance and improved ambush and premed

thick slate
#

tell me if there's anything wrong with it

jolly bear
#

do you just prefer dark brew over the rotten? I don’t see anything that stands out

thick slate
#

dark brew gets chosen if you're playing echoing reprimand

jolly bear
#

cheap shot sd evis er ss evis ss is what I would do

#

and another cheap if you’re chaining

thick slate

when you cheap shot sd evis, you'd be at 5+ cps ?

wait

where's secret tec

#

your opener is off

#

i think there’s a link to the exact opener somewhere here lemme see if I can find it

thick slate

😄

#

damn that shit isn’t there

#

they don’t have one for ER

#

I’d research youtube specifically putting ER

#

I have to reddit and youtube a lot of stuff for this game 😂

#

Thats way too complicated, someone can literally type it here in 5 seconds i just need to know exactly what im doing wrong

#

anyways whoever can provide his echoing reprimand opener, that would be nice. ty

whenever I ask for help in game chats they always tell me to google and stop being lazy lmao

i dont know how it was in season 1, made my rogue in s2

but cant remember

#

@long shore its ur moment

#

symbols > Cheap > dance > evisc (here i should have 5+ cps right?) > ER > coldblood > secret tech or shadow strike then secret tech if im not on max cps

#

that it ?

tawny kestrel
#

the evis doesnt matter, u do it just to get deeper daggers

#

u play first dance so u will be at 5+ combo points regardless

thick slate
#

isnt it good for danse stacks ?

tawny kestrel
#

sure u do it for that reason too

#

mainly deeper daggers tho

thick slate
#

Yeah makes sense

jolly bear
#

is it worth to use a 5 point evis if your max is 7?

tawny kestrel
#

ur max is 6 with er

jolly bear
#

oh then yeah

tawny kestrel
#

it doesnt matter how many combo points u use for the evis

#

u will be on 5+

jolly bear
#

I’ve had 7 for a long time

tawny kestrel
#

first dance is 4 and cheap shot is 1

Subterfuge isnt being played with ER build right ?

u can if u want

Alright

the second half was dying LoS 10 sec later

Depends on the situation ofc

If your team already has CC on the healer/is about to, and you want to create a 1v3 situation then why not cheap/gouge the other dps

Hi !

I'm starting to play PvP a bit more seriously ( if i can say so... ) but i feel really really behind and under performing, wich is really frustrating. It's like... Everyone is two steps ahead.

I have so many questions, and i know i need to know more about basics, not only about rogue stuff. Any advices ? :/
I'm mainly playing RBG now btw.

Thanks !

sour charm
#

Knowing what and when to CC is mostly a game knowledge thing. People can of course tell you "In this sitation do X and in that do Y" but arena (and shuffle more so) has a million variables. Sometimes you need to gouge to save someone, sometimes you gouge extend a CC chain on a healer, sometimes you gouge to stop offheals.
Best tip I can give is to just "play more", even though that sounds pretty bad as advice goes.

sharp sierra
#

damn sub is gonna be shit tier with the vigor nerf in 10.2

#

that nerf last night

#

sheesh lol

minor cape
waxen meteor
#

What’s the nerf

sharp sierra
#

regeneration to energy

#

burst to sub is pretty much kapoot

wary spire
#

For sure, if only sub had an ability to make their finishers cost no energy.

languid ravine
#

and for some reason every single button they press just does a casual 100% cleave damage

tribal badger
#

ye

#

the rework was gud

#

gud spec

#

they didnt take the wheelchair off instead they gave it a gun

languid ravine
#

even the wheelchair meme is questionable when you have 25sec CD freedom with 30% movespent and 45 sec Sprint with 2 charges

tribal badger
#

ye i mean rets the only melee besides dk that has ~30s windows of being fully kiteable with no gap closers

#

its just that it doesnt matter cause their deadzone is like 30-40 yards for casters and its fairly easy to stay within 30 or 20

#

being on top of someone is basically just for the 10% damage boost of ur auto attacks and to kick

#

xd

vital void
#

do you guys think ret or arms is easier to climb in shuffle

tribal badger
#

ret i think

#

more team utility, same overwhelming damage, less lobbies that feel like they hardcounter you

#

playing arms in triple paladin (2 hpal 1 ret) lobbies is rough

#

let me just get through 3 bops

#

but in full melee lobbies i feel better on my warrior

#

more durable and better cleave + MS

#

Healer or if kick is on cd and I don’t want him to get a cyclone or something off I’ll use it. Sometimes healer gets DR’d on stuns by someone else and you can use gouge on healer instead before blind. Rarely DPS

how much easier is sub then it now with the rework

here is the better question, can you still kill people within a kidney shot like you can now or no

surreal barn
#

I’m trying to up my corpse banner usage after a kill. @pale storm didn’t you have a macro that threw a bunch down?

pale storm

I just macrod all my banners, you have to spam it but it’s like:
/use Flag of Ownership
/use Alliance Flag of Victory
/use Warlord’s Flag of Victory
/use Breaker’s Flag of Victory

surreal barn

Oh gotcha

surreal barn
#

Was trying to make to work on banners as well with @player macros but no luck

worldly gale

Guys, when you shadow duel someone near the flag to help your mate to cap, if your target is close it still can spin to anticap, right ?

surreal barn
#

Yeah

jolly sierra
#

the aoe is still done

tight eagle
#

does the spore cloak count as embellishment like the kick/primary stat boots?

surreal barn
#

Yes

tight eagle
#

are those the two I want then? seems like it, no?

jolly bear
#

maybe this is a dumb question but with shadowy duel, when you use it you get access to stealth. you use shadow dance, you can still use shadowy duel. can you use shadow dance inside shadowy duel?

#

cuz when im in regular stealth it greys out shadow dance

languid ravine
#

but I m 99% sure you can because you arent in stealth, just able to use stealth abilities

jolly bear
#

if you cant then that mean you HAVE to use sd then shadowy duel or else its pointless right

To use stealth skill in duel, the value is probably only when you use it on healer, you can do a cheap shot right before releasing healer back

#

If you want to execute then you almost surely want to use dance with it as retros said

Are rogues good for arena and ss ? I’m currently playing a lock and it’s rough against melee cleaves , is rogue an easier route

Yup

Realz was in chat, so I asked about HO nerf affecting pvp, but didn't get an answer this time.

Hopefully it gets addressed at some point

#

And the armor pen as well

#

He did say the 6% nerf is offset a bit by the grand melee bug fix earlier this week

Still worried though

I have the sinking feeling we're going to get destroyed by pve nerfs again like in 10.0

I think we will be taking sanguine blades, easy to get to

4 set also works with mastery and shiv now
the buff was expected to be 2% of pve damage to 3% but after testing it's 7.5%

So i imagine it's very valuable in pvp now also

which it didn't before this recent change

Yeah, and I was testing w this rogue and sanguine blades doesn’t break stealth anymore

It can however trigger combat which might be irritating

I want to see that hunter on the forums now they fixed it xD

quaint cedar
# worldly girder Man I'm sad find weakness is gone from combat

Yeah I've been making as much noise about it as I can. I asked realz in discord a while back and he said he was aware of it being a potential issue for pvp and was going to "wait and see". Which might mean we go live without FW and then possibly get armor pen added back later.

nova viper
marble oasis
quaint cedar
#

Yeah, pretty sure all 3 rogue specs just took 7 CP in pve anyways. Honestly MFD should have never been on the same choice node as deeper strat. And now it's gone.

marble oasis
#

indeed. like sure we'll get used to opening with cheap no problem. but having that pocket kidney was very strong and imo needed for assa to survive. as it was basically our only oh shit button.

but we'll see

#

i can see Sub being really strong in the first few weeks due to it's insane healing

quaint cedar
#

Yeah I bet the healing talents will get a pvp modifier slapped on eventually

#

And they'll throw in a free outlaw nerf too just for fun

#

They love doing that

marble oasis
#

indeed. secret tech isn't apparently working with the healing/shield talent properly yet

quaint cedar
#

I'm not surprised, outlaw still has tons of bugs too

#

Devs don't have much time left to fix these things

#

Patch is coming out on nov 7th

#

I wonder if we'll get pvp tuning

#

They usually do that in the last week or two of ptr

marble oasis
#

Oh we’ll 1000000% get pvp tuning but it’ll be in the season.

#

So week 1 and to pump as hard as possible then give up till the end of the season in 5 months when we finally get bug fixed😂

wary spire
#

Our damage will be brought back to somewhat current level but our defensives are arguably worse than now. Surebud

#

With no cloak, less vers, no mfd kidney.

Not really hyped about 2 charges of feint.

still so dumb they didn't let that follow through when other specs got amped survivability like wut

"Assa m+ update".

#

And that's pretty much it.

Like, haven't seen any pvp consideration there. Other than for touch of death nerf that was warranted but like.

"We don't care about assa in pvp, just don't be ret redesign levels of broken" and that's it.

Im a 443 PvE andy with 35% vers 23%mast 35% crit should I buy myself a set of crafted pvp gear before stepping foot into pvp?

just use a couple of pvp trinkets and a pvp wep in the main hand and u are good

hidden mirage
marble oasis
#

yeh i thought the same but someone pointed it out it's removed from parry table

old tinsel
surreal barn
marble oasis
#

i think in general stuff that is a major CD in the form of a debuff shouldn't be dispellable.

we can't purge people's major buff cds so not sure the disparity.

surreal barn

I’ll go back and test it a little later after work

hidden mirage

and you get combat aswell

surreal barn

Weird, it was only combat and not dropping stealth for me

Anyone got their current assa ptr build

i feel like my brain can't comprehend not being a pve zerg

Yeah ngl

#

I don't think the rogue updates for any spec had pvp in mind at all

marble oasis
#

they didn't

jolly sierra
marble oasis
#

which is actually rather surprising as the main man who did most of the changes used to compete in competitive pvp as a rogue.

jolly sierra
jolly sierra
quaint cedar
#

Outlaw for example has a 2 set bonus that increases opportunity proc chance by 15%. But we also got a nerf slapped onto HO specifically that nerfs the proc chance by 20%, which essentially "restores" the proc chance to live values in pve with the tier set, but in pvp even with the tier set it ends up being lower than live values because the tier set is nerfed by 50%. I don't think anyone thought about pvp at all when making that change

#

Also outlaw losing FW is so troll

#

For pvp

maiden gull
#

on ptr it isnt

marble oasis
#

all sets are nerfed by 50% as default

quaint cedar
#

You don't have to read it, its already in the ptr

marble oasis
#

some have received further targeted nerfs

maiden gull
#

i got 52% ho procc chance on ptr

quaint cedar
#

Go hit a pvp target and you see the tooltip update to the lower value

maiden gull
#

on pvp dummy

#

mhm

quaint cedar
#

I'm not sure the tooltips ever updated for the 80% nerf

maiden gull
#

😄

#

sounds like a typical blizz then

#

pvp sadly is just an afterthougt

quaint cedar
#

but if tier set wasn't nerfed you would see the proc chance at 50% with no EB stacks

#

base 35% + 15% from tier

#

And with full EB it would be 65%

maiden gull
#

-20% hence why it is 52 or 53

quaint cedar
#

Yeah but tier is nerfed

maiden gull
#

maybe they will bring back enduring brawler to 20% with armor pen

#

or smth, but tbh i dont have high hopes

quaint cedar
#

So it's (35% base + 7.5% tier + 15% EB) * .80

#

Which is 46%

#

Which is 9% lower than live

#

And that's pretty trash

maiden gull
#

yeah as u need th edouble hit to fill your combo points during burst winows

quaint cedar
#

Right

maiden gull
#

dreadblades removed aswell

#

and marked for death

quaint cedar
#

We're balanced around having the higher proc chance in pvp with EB being a mandatory talent

#

So this is just a big pvp nerf for literally no reason

maiden gull
#

like always for outlaw

#

10.0 it was the same

quaint cedar
#

And I've been trying to provide feedback about it for the last month and haven't gotten any response

maiden gull
#

yeah sucks, i really like outlaw in pvp but those nerfs man..

#

just make it clunky

quaint cedar
#

Same. I won't play any other spec because outlaw is just so fun

#

But man, it sucks being nerfed constantly in pvp because of pve shit

#

With 0 thought put into how it affects pvp

maiden gull
#

thats basicly why i stopped playing 2 months into DF

#

was hoping with the rework things gona change

quaint cedar
#

Yeah we got dumpstered hard by pve nerfs in the beginning of DF

#

Not a single pvp buff to compensate

maiden gull
#

greenskin wickers was fun aswell

quaint cedar
#

The sad thing is the rework is really fun. Crackshot is super cool, KS actually does stuff again, and more utility from class tree is great

#

But losing FW might be enough to bury outlaw

maiden gull
#

yeah but crackshot feels bad if u have to amnbush twice

quaint cedar
#

And that's not even accounting for the inevitable nerfs

#

Yeah

maiden gull
#

can only manage to get 2 bte out

quaint cedar
#

I think the play is to store 6 pistol shot procs and use fan to guarentee generate enough

maiden gull
#

and this talent with 35% chance to get 5 CP after BTW sucks aswell, make it full Cp and 50%

quaint cedar
#

That's what the non HO builds have to do too

maiden gull
quaint cedar
#

Yeah. Ace is a cool talent, fun to react to, but I dislike how it adds so much RNG to the burst

#

Yeah just finish with 6 cp

#

During crackshot you want to BTE at 5 or higher

#

Doesn't matter

maiden gull
#

what build you gonna run?

#

i just discovered that crackshoit works with subterfuge and under upper hand

quaint cedar
#

This is what I was planning to run if things stay the way they are now

#

Yes, crackshot works with any stealth window

#

Though currently on the ptr it is bugged

maiden gull
#

no greenskin?

quaint cedar
#

As of this week's build

maiden gull
#

ghostly strike without gcd is pretty decent aswell i think

quaint cedar
#

Yeah GSW I am unsure of. Could maybe drop KS for it

#

Ghostly isn't worth

#

Costs too much energy

#

At least that's what I think

#

And not really enough points

#

Probably depends too on how much you want to go all in on burst

#

Technically the biggest crackshot burst would be with both ghostly and GSW

maiden gull
#

yeah

quaint cedar
#

But then you are losing the ability to keep KS as a separate burst button

#

And no CTO might be a lot worse for sustain

maiden gull
#

not really

#

you can drop under upper hand

quaint cedar
#

No you can't

#

Don't ever drop UHH

#

UUH

#

whatever lol

#

That talent is 100% mandatory

#

It makes every subterfuge window 6 seconds

#

So every vanish or restealth is basically another shadow dance

#

You absolutely need it

maiden gull
#

or drop cto for gsw

quaint cedar
#

Maybe yeah

maiden gull
#

thing is you want one burst window with max damage i think

#

cto is random

#

ace up your sleeve is another hit or miss

quaint cedar
#

The points I am unsure of are KS, Ghostly, CTO, and GSW. I think those last 1 or 2 points could go into any of those, and I'm not sure what is best yet

maiden gull
#

yeah thats what i thinkl

quaint cedar
#

The rest is locked in though

maiden gull
#

but gonna be fun testing things

quaint cedar
#

Unless you are playing non HO

#

Which is probably a legit option now in pvp, though I haven't tested it as much

maiden gull
#

since you dont need an extra button for it now

quaint cedar
#

Non HO probably looks something like this for pvp btw

#

The biggest thing I don't like about non HO is that the first stealth window feels very awkward. You really rely on FTH stacks to make use of crackshot, and you won't have any at the start of combat

#

Also, ER is gross and I'd rather not play it

quaint cedar
#

Oh I messed up in the class tree, for non HO you probably want Tight Spender over Improved Ambush

wary spire
quaint cedar
#

Having Dispatcher is kind of nice for Crackshot though I will admit. Makes the dispatches hit harder

#

Yeah, I know pvp will never be a priority for blizz, but man. Some of these changes are just really ignorant to pvp

#

I guess I had too much faith in blizzard lmao

maiden gull
#

yeah, really muich stuff to try out

#

dispatcher is bad if u get cc´d

#

its a pve talent

#

i expect some nerfs for rogue in pvp

#

as usual

quaint cedar
#

It stacks up during crackshot though

#

which is nice

#

otherwise not amazing yeah

stoic spruce
quaint cedar
#

At one point earlier in the ptr I was able to run 2/2 Dispatcher weith HO but that is kind of dead now because energy has been nerfed into the dirt as usual

#

Not sure what the obsession is with the current team and making us all sit around waiting for energy to come back

#

Do they think that's just peak rogue gameplay or something? Being energy starved constantly?

#

Because personally I hate it

maiden gull
#

yeah, i dont understand that energy nerfs aswell

#

like wtf let us use our skills

quaint cedar
#

Exactly

#

No other spec that I've tried has to sit around waiting for resources as much as rogue does

maiden gull
#

but haste will be the way to go in 10.2 anyways

#

with killing spree

quaint cedar
#

Warriors are drowning in so much extra rage that a lot of them macro ignore pain to their rotation to spend it

maiden gull
#

and swift slasher

quaint cedar
#

No, I think it will be crit

#

The haste scaling is honestly pretty bad

#

I've tested it and wasn't impressed

marble oasis
#

it reset overpower

#

won't do that in 10.2

quaint cedar
#

They fixed that at some point I think

#

Yeah

languid ravine

Let’s petition for fourth rogue spec

High burst and worst defensives?

surreal barn
#

Nah

#

On PTR assa feels tanky imo

#

With them two feints

#

Well it doesn’t feel tanky vs arms lol

#

I take that back

quaint cedar
#

lol

#

That's interesting

surreal barn
#

Arms got a buff too I think

quaint cedar
#

Two feints is awesome, I'm excited for that

#

Hope it doesn't get nerfed

surreal barn
#

The extra leech makes a difference too

#

I didn’t think it would but I looked at healing

#

And like, it wasn’t that bad. Assa can take improved vial now too

quaint cedar
#

I thought the extra leech buff didn't apply to pvp?

surreal barn
#

Maybe you’re right, hop on and test for us kekw

quaint cedar
#

But then I have to spec assa

# surreal barn With them two feints

its still weak tho, we should get both cheat death and elusiveness. I kind of don't want to sacrifice oneshot protection, even if sometimes doesn't trigger properly.

surreal barn
#

I’m willing to give it up for the two not the one

#

Would be nice to have both

hidden mirage
#

having them both would help a lot definitely.

pale storm
hidden mirage
#

since we are also losing the 4% versa from talent tree

surreal barn
#

With the new gear vers isn’t really a problem but working our way up at start of the season without it will suck

hidden mirage
#

well, the new set bonus has very bad stat diversity, so I'm not sure if I'll play with or without set, just because of versa and mastery

surreal barn
#

Only thing that looks interesting is the 150% (75%) envenom echo

#

I had fun with no set on ptr I’m not incredibly worried about it

hidden mirage
#

yea, but you will also need a very high uptime to do two envenoms in a short window, but with more energy nerfs, I'm not sure if its worth to pick. We will see...

#

god i miss MfD

surreal barn
#

Can knock out a couple real fast with ER

marble oasis
#

the assa 4 set slaps now

hidden mirage
#

I'm still thinking of picking cold blood over ER now, since it finally works with Kingsbane.

marble oasis
#

i wouldn't

#

it makes the initial Kingsbane tick crit that's it

#

doesn't get the same treatment as secret tech

surreal barn
#

You can actually take Tea, ER, CB, and Dance lol

hidden mirage
#

I know, but its not that bad either

#

with high mastery + shiv it pumps

marble oasis
#

but so would 7 point combo points wiith ER

#

pve sure but you get the point

surreal barn
#

In duels the kingsbane crit off of CB was chonky

#

But I’d still run acrobatic over it

hidden mirage
#

I will start with this build, but i will replace SD probably with DTB, and will try the ER with 4set aswell, but I have to test them both in PvP.

surreal barn
#

My right side of the tree is very similar

#

Left not so much

#

DTB 30% effectiveness blows

#

But yeah maybe better idk

hidden mirage
#

I will wait till live 10.2 to test if Sudden demise is worth to pick over DTB, probably both are good, but DTB could be still better.

surreal barn
#

I have sudden demise

#

Was averaging around 60k per proc

#

Instant touch of death is pretty fun

hidden mirage
#

yeah, hopefully Bertimus will not ruin it more Cring

surreal barn
#

It proccing inside turtle shell is priceless

hidden mirage
#

I wonder if it bypasses dmg reduction like Dispersion, since Touch of Death does this.

lets go to hunter feedback forum when its time and call for rapid fire removal

#

I was wondering why my team is losing a 2v1 against a Ret but then I found out

#

only 500 rating between healers and dps, nothing to see here

wary spire
languid ravine
#

that would be too elegant of a solution

#

it needs to be clunky and dysfunctional, its Blizzards brand now

#

I was focusing an Augmevoker the other day

#

within three minutes he can use wall for 36 seconds and be kick immune during that time

#

meanwhile within three minutes a Hunter can wall for 6 seconds and die during that time

God destro in my lobby going 5-1 vs two kinds of warrior and a DH

Is it just me or is learning sub pvp incredibly difficult

languid ravine
#

I fucking love getting 0-6ed by my teammates dying in the opener every. single. round.

#

truly makes you feel like Spiderman

jolly sierra
#

god i hate healers in shuffle

#

this prick refused to heal after losing a lot

#

DMed him later "thank you for making waste my time with the 30m queue"

#

then "hope you have a nice day"

hidden mirage
#

report him for sabotage

jolly sierra
#

already did

languid ravine
#

this Arms warrior kept disarming me 0,05 sec after dance its kinda sus but not sure

#

either way makes me want to delete my rogue

hidden mirage
#

could be a macro

#

hopefully in 10.2 those autobot macros will end.

#

like ele shaman

jolly sierra
#

but because im already preminding it

#

xdd

languid ravine
#

yeah I get that but when it happens faster than me pressing cheap shot its starege

tawny kestrel
#

most people have insane awareness nowadays (weakauras) so thats gna happen a lot

languid ravine
#

not sure this is true, the Rets in my lobby can barely track their own and their targets position

#

you add just one weakaura their brains gonna implode

jolly sierra
#

got a 0-6 dps match

#

lucky

tribal badger
#

you should be able to cheap shot someone faster then their reaction time unless ur preactivating dance during ur prior gcd and spamming cheap tho

#

dance is off the gcd so u should be able to dance > cheap basically seamlessly

waxen meteor
#

kill target him

#

so you won't be disarmed

#

Kidney -> dance disarm where

stoic spruce
#

what do yall think of outlaw/rsham/aug next tier? We used my Alt-Picker 3000 and I managed to get Outlaw

stoic spruce
#

yes thats the point

#

youre suppose to predict

#

with information we have, its not impossible to make an assumption
