tbh w the ret i wanna a fyralath not just for the ilvl but also the fun
with a filthy powerful wep
(still think that shit had to have mastery)
ilvl my beloved
https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/character/us/tichondrius/mintwolfy
please check my char and tell me if need to change something
imagine hitting like a fkn truck with 7 more ilvls
imo, other than crafted dagger, other changes are more or less doing nothing
wtym
wtf that gladiator doesnt says that
2% gives me the mental fortitude I need 😂
as said, you are shifting like 1% crit to 1% mastery (just making up a number for talking)
it doesn't necessairy even make you dealing better dmg
those changes, are tiny from math
and not probably even positive
Absolutely Right
shadow techniques after rework makes dagger very relevant at least in pve
raz talked some time ago about that
yeah, that's why i said only dagger change may do sth
all other changes are shifting good stat from one to another
hmm..
ye the ilvls
but the change is small
well, its more stamina
well u guys r right
ill just pray for crit then. gg
craft a dagger
cause a dagger triggers shadow techtic...
he is using the hammer already, so stat wise, basically the same
but you trigger more shadow tec
for free
theres no stats diff. i already calculated it
then more shadow tech..idk is it rly worth
that's more important than 50 crit to mastery....
ohh
it's simple math
but it might get changed
because blizzard has changed most of the formulas impacted by weapon speed
just not this one
that is post rework
hammer/mace speed is 2.6, dagger is 1.8
so you have roughly 30% more trigger of shadow tec
from single hand
obviously you main hand trigger will stay the same
but shadow tech with thistle tea is useless tbh
it seems you are thinking about the shadow tec pre rework
nah ik how working
why tea would help with stored cp?
you store one more evis quicker
why would tea impact it
well kinda
when you have blade on it's evis every other global anyway
still you can have a double evis quicker 🙂
if you notice it..
honestly i miss it during blade more likely
does the +500 mastery above 90% Life stack if you have two of them?
Old shadow techniques sucked butt. This version is far better.
Assa might be mid but it is fun as hell
That means the outlaw is the best choice atm right?
Outlaw is kinda immortal so yeah
outlaw feels pretty nice ... Grrt grrt pop pop 
There will be some soon I have a feeling lol
Before the sub nerf I bought my second conq dagger 🙂
But as far as I see my gear can be good for outlaw
conquest has no cap
so you can swap easily
if you wish to
tier swap recharge should be way more than enough as well
unless you do pve too
Only pvp
yeah so just farm some conquest (honestly atm i don't think you even need to farm)
get a weapon, and convert a couple of different pieces into tier
Not in position to say raz is not right, but 0 ppl are using double dagger.
And cp stored r like not that noticeable outside of blades. So 🤷♀️
remember ppl doesnt pve too much in pvp brackets
i think it's noticeable tbh
so maybe didnt got a decent dagger for that reason
but overall it's not huge
ppl doesnt use fyralath at 2k4+ because grinding
Yeap, that’s why it won’t make any difference. Hit and run
And the top outlaws are all using a dead talent because none of them read and just keep doing what they assumed works the same from one season to another. Much of the top of the pvp ladders don’t pick things optimally and feelcraft cope like a MF
whats the dead talent?
Enduring Brawler
oh that
Pointless and does nothing, leftover from pre-rework
Going from sub to outlaw should I convert all my mastery focused gear to crit gear ?
honestly? I've been running Boarding Party and its insanely fun.
If you’re sure you want to play Outlaw, yes you want to move to crit
zoomin all over the arena
But honestly I feel like the sub rogues are going to get baited on Outlaw. Outside of really good RNG, Outlaw does not burst and plays quite differently from Sub
Our Sub brothers need to know what they are getting themselves into
And most would probably enjoy Sin more. Sometimes I still miss the Sin burst when in doing some 1v1
I’ve been playing with Take Your Cut a lot, feels pretty good
yeah thats a fun one
wish drink up me hearties was good
I love how outlaw pvp talents are team oriented for the most part
Running it with the iron stomach talent from the class tree is a bonkers level of healing. But yeah it’s otherwise fairly lackluster
ngl I always have iron stomach
outlaw got tier head in vault
literally crying in the club rn
its not that it does nothing, its that its not good
I assume the outlaw is the fury warrior of the Rogue specs
Outlaw is definitely harder to play than fury
Yes, even r1 copy paste. But not all of them. Ppl like nahj or kalv are testing stuff.
yeah you have to define what "is the fury warrior of X" means
high octane, yes. Simplicity, no.
Yeah that’s why Raz is right, and just following murlok.io blindly is not ideal
I meant like no burst but you are not a paper
With the rework, playing HO you’re flooded with procs and the extra stacking of Enduring Brawler is ineffectual and wasted
Someone is either 100% going to die or be next to dead
ugh
those dks I fought yesterday stood no chance against my 9 bte casts one after another
The problem is even these who test says otherwise. Oh is a stat stick. Cp r pointless.
Those same people testing are obsessing over 200 mastery as if that will make a huge difference at the Mastery DR. And saying CPs are pointless when it’s how your do your main damage is just wild
I was referring to nahj. He plays double dagger but only cuz he likes more crit. 🙂
I mean u don’t pve ppl as sub to make it work even a little.
Since the pvp faq seems to not be updated for even 10.1 where should I go for consolidated spec info. Wowhead? Skill-capped? Or just lurk drustvar? Specifically which resource is "good" not just available I guess lol
And when u go on them it won’t even store enough for one evis
Agree to disagree. The people all insisting on dagger being bad were all also picking their jaws up off the floor when Trill was pumping the crazy numbers he was last AWC because he was using the raid ST build in arena
Idk how it works but isn’t pika and whazz were winning in both regions?
Anyway trill is not using oh dagger too rn. Despite playing shadowcraft talent
Don’t get me wrong, I would love this shit to work. But it looks good only on paper.
I think Trill is using double daggers just looking at armory might be different from what he plays in actual games though https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-gb/character/us/illidan/trillr
Oh, I watched him a few days ago. He was with a mace
Trill and Team Liquid won NA AWC last season, and in particular they stomped Pika and Golden Guardians. Pika just could not keep up with the damage coming out of Trill during his goes
And EU doesn’t have another team in the same galaxy as Whazz. He could play without an offhand and win
Good
It seems I don’t understand how awc works. Cuz I remember pika was wining every cup until last one I guess.
What happened lol
Oooph big 
The guy playing fire. wtf he was expecting 😂

is struggling against a BM monk now
Bm kinda good now
Lmao. He fried
with a pve wyrm crest as min
why?
has sub rouges burst window gotten nerfed?
name
ill still insist
I m at 2.2 rating in blitz and I still get Retripaladins doing a third of our top dps in damage numbers

Another 5-1 solo shuffle. God I wish these queues weren't 15 minutes long, I have shit to do
I’m tempted to throw together a full Sin set again just so I can meme with my double 489 timestike daggers
go ahead
me
Woah that’s pretty cool that you got those
Yeah got pretty lucky in my vaults, but I primarily pve these days pushing m+ score so that helps
lol shake hands, i am doing m+ these days too
ret reached 2500 easily in 2.5 weeks
rogue is currently 2300 but i only do 4 myth on rogue a week
playing with 470 conquest dagger like a weak suace
Since when?
since bfa i recall
I feel like I do no damage. I used to do alot of damge in 1600 lobbies, but now I dont really pose a treath. Did I forget the right combo? rn when i go In I do: Shadowadnce, shadowblades, verdant aspirants badge of ferocity, symbols of death, in one macro. Then I cheap, sepsis, thistle tea, secret tech, shadowstrike, cheap, eviscerate, cheap.
My bad. Didn’t realize he said rogues. Dhs r definitely a food for subs tho
i recall one once
in recent season
who killed me in a go from 80-0 with dampening
with just a blade dance when i was about to win
just used eruption and in those 3 seconds i was dead
Ye, they have stupid talent that can multiply basically their damage 😂
I once did the same to one hunter. The guy died in 2 sec. Wasn’t high damp.
bro
how do i play against warriors
i fkin hate warriors, it looks like i deal no damage to them
Should try sub. When blizzard buff them back
😂
im at hyper level as sub
wow this priest i was 1v1ing literally flash healed 10 times and stunned/feared me like 6 times
i got him to 60k hp
5 flash heals b2b
if it wasnt for the nerf he woulda died
kinda crazy blizz....
Disc?
@stoic spruce no lmao shadow
nerf feels soo awfull
idk how he didnt run outta mana
sub guys try 3sets
25crit/116mast/31vers
changed conq pants/engi mast wrist
Well not against sub
im looking for 3s in lfg and this one dude has "dont be a gigachad... if you leave after one game I WILL FIND YOU" lmaooooo
DKs taking 120k BTE crits
im loving life right now
tbf everyone who does that is a pussy
only excuse is if the people you are teamed with GENUINELY SUCK and there's no saving it
even then you dont have to be toxic about it either which ive def seen
got into this ele/disc group that was looking for a warrior for thunder cleave. and now they think ele with outlaw is better cause we just smoked a thunder cleave team LOL
pretty sure plate got shafted too hard to be taken as seriously anymore might as well just play lock
im still getting 120k BTEs on locks too
dont matter when they have 30 ways to heal and shield with 1.1m hp lmao
I heard the stamina changes are making the games take a lot longer and they're mana games now
Gonna have to create a weak aura tomorrow that pings when the enemy outlaw has full buffs though… there are a lot more I’ve seen in queue
idk i just smoked a destro lock playing with an outlaw rogue
maybe its cause im with an ele lol
maybe you had better crackshot rng lol
idk what that mean
i wanna learn to be a pirate too guys
but i cant play the game if i spec as sub
but you can though
its not fun anymore
yeah, must be rough kiling in 4 globals instead of 3
you guys are getting kills?
ive also had 3 straight lobbies with 6 RTB rolls
when i check details after rounds BTE usually crits 80% of the time at a minimum
just went 12/15 hits were crits
80% on the dot lol
I seee
is outlaw king among 3 rogue specs right now?
no lol
is still sub tho
always has been
it was just a good tuning pass for outlaw since it did so shit into plate
one day everyone will fotm outlaw
until then ill have 3 grandchildren
but im doing that rn
yall didnt even play Venthyr. Yall played the stupid kyrian outlaw with shadowdust
👑 you forgot this
carpal tunnel spec
I played Fury until this new tier set came and you literally press 2 buttons garbage spec
everytime i play with a sub "STOP MESSING WITH MY DR STUNS"
like bro i stunned a healer that had 0 dr on him fk off
Outlaw is the only spec thats fun even when its garbage. Thats good spec design.
it wont be great until they make crackshot reset bte cd
you mean shadowdance
no
if shadowdance was on CDR outlaw would be broken spec
Oh god, that would hurt my poor wrists so much
the only thing I would do to change outlaw is make crackshot an active ability.
if your bte is on cd and you gain stealth i.e. crackshot window it resets your bte cooldown
yeah but if you have it on cd and you stealth (on accident or on purpose) gg your dps
the worst is getting cloned right when u press it
im just saying huge W if they did that
that pisses me off like no other wasting a whole go
getting used to NOT pressing bte bc muscle memory is hard ok
you get it back in 14 seconds. just press it lol
just need the big weak aura that has a red box around BTE if its bad to press or green if its a go
lol
While we are talking about juicy things to make Outlaw broken. What about making Killing Spree a passive that grants +25% damage and you cannot be CC’d in dance or subterfuge
IM TRYING TO BE A MIN MAXER OR ELSE THE PVERS WILL VERBALLY ASSAULT ME FOR NOT PRESSING MY BUTTONS LIKE A SIMULATION
cringe
id rock that so hard
kinda like fists of fury
cant be CC while that ish is going off
that made me rock hard
idk man the way the pvers are is kinda weird
like you have to be PERFECT or else ur trash and its sim this sim that
they'll sacrifice their first born for an extra 2% dps
im not a robot my guy relax
"ughhhh I hate this build"
mf dont play it lol
they have those m+ logs
theyre not the ones with modifiers
they scour through them and find any button you pressed that was wrong and ur trash
it was crazy
man
I really hope and pray they come to peace with the numbers game theyre always running
they dont look like theyre having fun
i told the DH pve channel i was running no movement build and they said you might as well play a different spec then
guess what i dont have fun using fel rush for dmg
DH players arent stupid
lol
They are quite sophisticated
its just that stupid DH players are 400 rating higher than stupid Fury players for example
so they stand out
My buddy who plays DH bought 3 custom keyboard keys on Etsy for his 3 main skills
so DHs are just inflated
He’s stoked
so is it just 3 big buttons
very inflated
i dont understand lol
could you imagine if DH was available to every race?
I dont think the game needs that many Dhs
Cast in epoxy or something, they don’t get in till next month apparently
felblade, chaos strike, blade dance, immo aura, essence break, eye beam, meta, the hunt
oh sigil of flame
i just realized i somehow bought 2 natures cradle with just the 6 aspects from the vault this week how is that possible lol
i got 2 sockets this week lmao
bro everything in zaralek caverns is so fucking annoying to kill
they spawn more adds and shieldsw immunities giant aoe
wtf
and everything is elite
lmao
is there a benefit to an epoxy keyboard lol
Be me 2k rated player playing casually in SS
Not use CC because zug zug more fun
Healer upset, he complains no CC from me
My brain has an enlightening moment, remembers CCs and Defensives (Feint) exist
Starts using CCs and Defensives (Feint) and winning round
Healer upset earlier is now on enemy team
Start CC chaining him while surviving at dangerously low HP
Win rounds
See Healer fume
Don’t think so but i googled it they look cool/expensive
yeah i went and checked some out on etsy they got some cool stuff
did healer not heal u after he got back on ur team LOL
the ONE RING lmao
😂
highly recommend rocking 3s with an ele for any of yall outlaws. it is so much fun lol
Such things look awful to keep clean and nice. Epoxy scuffs like crazy
why can i trainquil shot off pally bubbles sometimes but cant othertimes. do they have like a no dispel talent or something
because shot only removes 1 buff and they probably have multiple dispellable buffs
its not guarenteed to get bop
when the rogue discord is full of thieves :O
just saw a mage get a 363k crit and a 323k back to back.... wild stuff
bro had under 10 casts and closed out the solo with a wicked KB lol
A feral just hit me for 450k in a second. The best part, not a single ability of it did crit. That is potential 900k in a second against 35% vers...
Working as intended man
lol somehow my rogue reaches 2460 rating in myth by doing 4 random myth a week for 3 weeks…
Very close to elite achievement
Dear diary, this is my first season playing PvP (assassination) and I’m 600 rounds into solo shuffle and yoyo-ing between 1580 and 1690. I use wow arena logs and see that virtually everybody I face was rival 1-2 last season. I feel like I should unsub since I can’t even break the 1800 milestone.
For what it’s worth I almost never die and rarely go less than 3/3. I just can’t carry.
Never ever ever give up man. It is a journey for sure but it is worth it.
Lol after this many rounds i think it might just be it for me. I doubt any of you would need this much time to figure out how to at least carry it to a 4-6.
I’ve seen way too many people at 1800 or higher with like 80 rounds total. Like I must have brain damage.
600 rounds or 600 matches?
Rounds
It doesn’t matter how many rounds it takes, it matters how long you stick to it man.
That's a fair number
I think you could go higher
Can you link your gear and spec?
That’s still only 100 “matches” in total. Don’t compare yourself to others man.
600 rounds would probably mean a longer queue than the entire xpack of DF lol
That's probably true. Lmao
Show game play and the boys will help (if you want to / are comfortable with it).
SS queues are aids
lol I thought about showing it but didn’t want to get ripped up
No one's going to rip you up
Just dm some trustable sources
We are here to help
People are mature here
Alright fuck it. Tomorrow when I queue I’ll record it and hopefully someone can point out what is keeping me in this 1600 purgatory
Bro, don’t give up. It’s just sub thing. I have exact same brain damage. My sub is literally lowest spec sitting at 1.8.
I feel energy starved by the 2nd or 3rd go and can’t seem to send it. I think I’m unnecessarily stunning but get too tunnel visioned. And should 109% switch to sub I’m playing assassination.
Play what you love
I'm playing Assassination and haven't lost a match yet out of 12 matches
Assassination is definitely good, maybe not as "pro" as Subtlety but it's still good
Matches, not rounds
Can you show us your talents so we can look at them?
for outlaw pvp what should our second emblisment be
I’m a very average player, I had a blast since the start of the season and could see myself breaking 1.8 for the first time, Tuesday night I sat at 1760 before patch, and now… since yesterday it’s just been miserable it’s just not fun I considered reroll fotm, cancel sub and break my computer to pieces all at once shit is rough
I am only in this discord to better understand and combat rogues, but I’m sure that’s not true. You shouldn’t compare yourself to others who got rating really quickly. They could have had a string of good luck with good placement due to favorable comps. If it makes you feel better I’ve lost rating last week (haven’t played since affliction went to 1 school)
hey guys i gotta question regarding talents, pikaboo armory active talent build is using kyrian spell but on his vids he uses another one, is kyrian pve or smth? didnt really play sub since bfa, would b great if some1 shared a viable pvp one
thx in advance!
I feel like old pvp players are totally ruining pvp in this game.
Old, stupid people who don't want to play with new people because they don't have archives or something like that, and then the same people cry that no one plays pvp because blizzard did something. If you are a new player, you have absolutely no way to start playing 3s or a reasonable 2s

Rmd now with outlaw? Anyone tried since nerfs?
Should I use pve gear or pvp gear, if in warmode?
PvP
it depends what ur doing any what gear u have
conq gear is usually enough for warmode but clearing WQ with honor gear on can be a bit of a pita
i usually run in my pve gear (its 480 ilvl) and just vanish and swap if someone attacks me
If you are engaging in pvp fighting then pvp gear.
pvp gear doesnt scale up in warmode unless a player attacks u or ur in a pvp wq area
and honor gear ilvl is pretty low so it makes WQing way slower
aah ok. was a bit confused on the scaling outside of arena. ty 🙂
Nothing needs to be confused, pvp gear turns 489 in pvp
Highest pve gear is 489
Other than orange weapon which is irrelevant to us
Full conq is normal raid level gear(as I’ve been told). That more then enough for wq
@last jasper
Okay. I need to sleep. It took me a minute to see “honor” 🤡
all g
Does 489 obtainable outside myth raid?
from m+ vault boxes
not farmable
doing 18s or higher gives vault with gear upgradable to 489
Yeah from vault
If you do 18+ myth you can get myth level pve gear that can be upgraded to 489
But that also means you will not pick socket 
That’s huge
In first weeks yeah
Like you have 3 more spots in vault for 489 tier
If tier set rocks for the season
Why are some rouges running Mace dagger and not 2x dagger? is it cause the mastery mace gives?
They do it for the extra stats, that is all.
ah ok
do you play sepsis build or do you play goremaw, echoing reprimand?
I make my own build’s honestly, aint a fan of like mike talents.
ah ok. its just weird. cause I was climbing alot with the sepsis build, then after rouge nerf, i just kept falling in elo. It just seems it doesnt do as much damage. and with the goremaw build I have to press 3x the ammount of buttons. just seems confusing. What do you play with? 🙂 @halcyon timber
struggeling now in very low elo, but before the nerf I actually had an impact in 1600 elo games. Which for me is good since I had been playing pvp for 2 days or something.
You never “focus” on perforated veins if choosing the generator styles. You just build it as you go (more of a planning style which i dig) instead of tea swigging. All builds are fine now.
Sepsis still does good damage , its just finality isn’t as big of a hit into people besides other rogues. You can still smack other rogues for like 180-190k eviscerates.
nice, first lobby of season as sin 5-1
Ig im just ass. its just weird, cause I really didnt find 1600 lobbies to be challenging. And now that I have lost alll my elo and sitting in 1200, i hard struggle, feeling I dont really have impact.
2100MMR now, but how comes my first lobby is this low
i didn't even play sin in solo this season
We aren’t there to do damage, subtlety is a stun bot and your team mates do the damage.
We pass butter and get blamed for it
I did the AoE build with CT since it's a 4 melee blend
worked well
start first lobby with 4 melee blend lol
Partial joking aside, you’re there to mostly control and be a pain in the butt while people pve
I usually try to cc the healer, go in do some burst and cc healer again. just felt like it was worth something before. But now it feels like throwing
and everyone went on me pfff
I think probably the majority of people who are at the top of the subtlety ladder are mostly disabling opponents and creating big brain openings for their teammates to score kills whereas lower subtlety players were just exploding people in burst windows, and now that the burst windows are gone, the lower people can't succeed with subtlety unless they change the way they play
If a team isn’t using your control well or you find yourself in cc land , play your own game
Need divine shield and crap down? Just force it down and swap
when your dmg becomes minimum
Swap off defensives, don’t waste time into ps as an example
you becomes a liability to the team because of low consistent dmg
Can thank pvers for having a boner for dance
ok, so I basically want only want to go the healer? like using all my cc on healer, taking into duels so they cant heal, n stuff?
cause the only value sub provides is the burst dmg (now just low other than blade cd)
Right
you can't be trained for sub in one sentence like this
it's basically uselss words
if you don't know how to play sub
because beyond that
Subtlety is “it depends”
It's still a very good spec in the hands of a good player, just it feels very bad for an average player to use
PvP is all about POSITIONING and TIMING
it's not that you know you need to cc healer
then you just go ahead to healer face and start cc and make everything in DR
Timing is far most important
when your teammate is at the other side of the ocean
it's all about timing
demo lock can also do a huge cc chain by itself
but it doesn't mean you cast fear to healer 247
Yeah sending all your CC when no opponent has any chance of dying and none of your teammates are in danger
Is not very big brain
Yeh if a warrior hits avatar and is making mashpotatoes out of a hunter in australia, you set the table for warrior to do warrior stuff and still get blamed
Just how it goes
Dh being an ape in a mosh pit? Read the field and swap to his healer
imo DH this season is really easy for pvp starter
you are basically just doing pve there
Dh should have to solve 3rd grade cross word puzzles when they get ccd
how do i learn all the things you are mentioning. Just getting experience playing? I dont intend to give up on sub just because it is hard, and other characters are easier.
Just aoe padding and crap and lots of gloating
well sub takes years of exp...
Dh just does damage, the forget cc wins over being a monkey
to what? master? get decent at sub?
and you need to know all opponents and teammates well too
i played sub since TBC, dropped game in Panda and came back in SL end of S4 (so like 10 years gap lol)
but Sub didn't change too much
Just keep practicing and plan things out, try to slow down.
so I am able to pick up
but overall this is one of the hardest spec and you need to know a lot
knowing when to use what is just too big of a lesson
for any spec
Don’t do stuff just to do it. Subtlety is a thief / planner
the problem is
You don't need years to "get good" at any class. Just play consistently (so regularly not spread out) and record your own vods to see what worked well and what didn't
if you are not sub, you mess up timing, it's okay
if you are sub, you mess up timing/dr, you are useless
it will be more frustrated just that
if you can handle that feeling, go with it
You get ccd a lot? Just hit the closest target. Don’t chase anime ranged hero classes
for example, when you play DH as PvP starter, even if you mess up the timing or press whatever that is available you can probably still get some wins
I used to play like that and that was the time I was playing in 1600 elo. I might just have panicked when trying to learn a totally new build, and have just naturally sped up. Making me a worse player
I’m new to the server and just recently came back to WoW. I love playing rogue and pvp. Does anyone have a link they could share with the phase 1 bis pvp gear I should be going for outside of BFD?
Also don't be afraid to do nothing if you have to. Sometimes it's fine to run back to pillar and wait for shit to come back if they have pressure and you have nothing to counter that with
Not worse man, just slow it down : )
what is BFD btw...
Atm, conquest cap is removed, you can just straight get all max gear
Welcome! I dunno if the boys do SOD stuff in here .
oh if it's SoD i think probably wrong channel...
I got the list if you want it
Is there a rogue discord specific for SoD?
If you don’t mind you can DM me it
No idea man but we discuss all things rogue here.
Cool. I thought about playing WotLK but the phases and progression of SoD with the new raids and stuff interested me
I’m not a fan of retail unfortunately
Sometimes, especially when people don’t capitalize off your control or if we sit in cc too much then you have to make your own game while everyone else is doing theirs. It is important to watch DRs , positioning, your cds, remember what they recently used etc
And then just roll with it, just adapt
Its 2024 and people still trinket sap and shoot diarrhea into the forums because they refuse to press buttons
Do I want to set up burst windows as a rouge, both for me and my teammate? Or do I in general want to set up the windows for my teammates and not me?
You like what you like and there isn’t anything wrong with that man. Don’t let anyone tell you different.
Is rmp viable after 2.4?
@leaden fossil retail PvP is much, much, much harder than classic PvP. You should be able to find old guides for WOTLK, but idk about SOD. There aren't a lot of buttons to push at level 25 though
Or is it damp every game
being able to setup window for your teammate is like a 2400+ player thing tbh
The thing where I trip up the most is when someone trinkets my cheap and I get cc. Do I just wanna continue or just reset with a rupture vanish, eg.
you can aim for it
what embilshment do outlaw run
Everything is dampening now.
i am not able to monitor my teammate CD and set it up for them
Fuck
any one got anything i should run
I might be able to check some major CDs like ret wings and etc.
to wait a couple of seconds before a go
but i am not that able to just straight setup window for teammate
Yeah I’m already max leveled and have been messing around. Im definitely more excited for phase 2 pvp when I actually get a good stun lol
also i can't rely on them...
It depends , cruddy but honest answer
Time to quit pvp again til they make clothies killable 
@inner tartan I don't play Outlaw but you should probably run the same embellishments every other rogue spec uses
arent other rogue spec running boots then mastery
yeah, but is it not possible to make a general answer for new players? or is it just too complicated. I just really wanna learn.
no
PvP is too situational
if you try to get an answer
and someone gives you an answer like yes, always blabla
Ex: can you get more pressure by controlling again? Can you keep railing this guy? Did the guys use turtle as an example then you swap
it's wrong bible
@inner tartan if it helps, I'm undefeated in SS at 1730 and I'm using the worthless 1% damage head embellishment so as long as you have the boot one, you're fine
Can you blow up a healer for screwin around in kitty cat form too much? All things you have to look for
So how will I improve this decisionmaking, it is just learning all cds on all characters, to see when a time to reset is a good decision?
that's why i said it took some time
The true answer is, in each moment what can cause more ruin to the enemy team
You try a thing and if it blows up in your face then you don't do it again
Yes you have to know the timing and the abilities of other classes. Rogue aint easy.
Rinse and repeat
@safe cloak the more you play, the more you'll see and experience, and then you'll learn what's dangerous and how to interact with it
the thing is
Timing and rhythm
PvP is always the sum of your team power with current CDs vs oppoenents team power with current CDs
when you guys take upper hand
attack
When it comes to cd's do I need to learn all to become good or are there just the main abilites that are important, like defensives and cc's
when they do, you try to avoid it
Also, researching what every class does helps. Like warriors having avatar, discipline priests having Ultimate penitence, etc
main ones are enough
Start with recognizing major defensives and major offensive abilities
You only need to learn the ones you interact with but knowing more is never a bad thing
Is there any addons you need to track cds? Cause I see people having 1000 different tabs with information. Which is too much, rn im just playing it all raw, with only 1 weakaura.
The more cds you know the more preemptively you can play vs reacting to your opponents
exactly
I don’t use a lot of addons, i use my eyes
i think it's better to setup the big debuff
so this is just fine 🙂?
Yep
@safe cloak you should have an add on that tracks Diminishing returns. I don't have any, but it would definitely help
Just name plates, dr trackers, combat tracker
It should be baked into the base UI honestly
I just use elv ui and tell me when for dr tracking
I strongly recommend big debuff
Weak auras i make for my own custom art
You don't want to use pve ui WA, a lot of your cds are hidden
I don’t have shit flying around telling me the next grilled cheese sandwhich is ready at ihop or anything crazy like that
so MAJOR CCs are shown at least clearly
I am on lock now, and i feared the pvp dummy
so you see the MAJOR cc VERY CLEARLY
Agreed
and you can see there's a frost mage hitting dummy too it's shown there
Like Tarny said, reason being - if the target isn’t aoed / dotted :/ cleaved —> you “can” sap them
Depends on combat timing/ goofy shit like treants keeping them in combat
this is my fav addon 🙂
Gouge them or blind to extend the fear (drd but sometimes worth it to sap- rare case by case )
It all “depends”
i like a huge kidney logo there
Yeh its pretty sick
Fear is kinda sick
what do you mean by hidden?
On your bars you cant see your kidney/gouge/blind cd
Because man you know why
designer plays lock?
A lot do yes but
Its because of the oppressive melee overlords beating on poor pajama classes in warsong gulch
I can see them on the side, when theyre on cd
Oh i see
Because some warlock can’t be bothered to use his 750k shield and other things
same thing with blind and such, got it from a mythic raider.
one thing good about rogue is that if you aim to use cc with no DR
when you need them
“No matter what he does” he is “permma stunned”
mostly they are not on CD
like guage/kidney etc.
and CS/SAP have no CD
blind has CD but mostly you get to use it once a game
or at most twice
Lots of conditionals though
btw, is cc duration shorter on gouge if I 3x cheap before? since cheap cc get shorter per use
Gouge is an incapacitation like sap / paralysis / imprison / mortal coil
Blind shares drs with cyclone / fear / psychic scream/ intimidating shout
so if i sap 3x I cant gouge right after?
yeah 3 sap is not that good anymore
it was sort of okay in s1
now i think it's better you sap and go open right away
of course if you see some rookie healer trinket the first sap immediatly...
just sap again..
You can sap during your dance too
So if you open sap into fear on healer and dancing on kill target, if healer trinkets you can step sap them
we can start with a gauge over dance sap for starter
ok, what does cheap share DR with? can I cheap 3x and kidney eg?
ok.
there was a time cheap and kidney don't share DR
so theyre immune afteer 3 stuns no matter what
but that's before Cata or sth
Yes
Pretty much other than sub rogue, no one will throw the 1/4 stun ever
Infernal is the only non dr for 1 sec. Earthshock used to as well back in legion
I miss the time when we have 4+6
XD gone days forever
the armor change and cc change really confuse me
i really don't see why it makes the game better
Normalizing armor for a slight damage decrease for casters
That + talents + kiting etc is what makes them better
Don’t think it was meant to alter things a lot but instead serve as cumulative effects
According to warlock propaganda on the forums , armor was up to 4% decrease in damage taken
If I cheap 3 different targets will the be the same on everyone?
Yeah
Locks also have 1.5 m hp and better % based healing/ shields now so it was a net gain
In 3s i usually open with sap healer then cs both dps with subterfuge
wow, good to know
Mmmm demon armor
demo lock seems less dominating against casters
As long as outlaw can space jam mj dunk on them idgaf
Demo will be a threat
Theres a macro to make demo less mental to fight
always assumed that the cc duration wasnt per person. That makes a huge difference
/afk
pff
Just go next
Some of their stuff leaves a stacking debuff from demons i think so probably “cancels” clothy buff vs other harry potter classes
I tend to gouge fel guards
Or dismantle them
“Sometimes” airborne irritant is good into circus classes but ehh
Feint early and often too, mind positioning and have patience.
I also rupture demons to split up soul link
slowing down really helped. I both actually do more damage, and I control way more of the field
Its a lot like fishing in a way
Get pissed and throw a tree branch in and curse the sun , you’re going home empty handed
I use 7 / 8/ 9 on my mouse for players
And shift 7 (mouse for target directly in front of me)
The only problem i have with demo is idk what the fuck is happening
Also mash tf out of sap when hunters feign death
Why is my screen filled with hp bars
Yeah its agitating but i turn that crap off
I custom built my elv to resize info or turn certain nonsense off
Some demons are “guardians” , some are listed as other stuff (can see in base game options)
how do you guys also, stop targeting pets? When I try to sap a hunter or something. I always sap the pets xD. and when i wanna go a hunter it can also become very hard, cause I gotta click on the hunter, not just use tab button
I use tab target on enemy player
If i need to target pets or totems i just click on them
is this not the correct sap macro? #showtooltip Sap
/Sap
/Targetenemy {harm}{nodead}
/Targetenemy {noharm}{nodead}
/cast sap
/stopattack
Tbh i don't think as a rogue you can stop bm pet well
gauge one pet is also not helping much
Yeh just the main one
and also i don't know if you can tell which one is main one...
Circus classes, we have to feint a lot
but the one with MS is mostly the main one
The one who has the buff on him
Fel armament or whatever
I track it on my “buffs” name plate for demons as i white listed it
Had to play with it a lot
did a two mins + 2on3 in skirmish, then my healer quit lol
also the echo build is way better than thistle tea
idk why people still go with thistle
Utility and having a larger resource pool for certain things while focusing on finisher damage
Personal preference as well probably
you never run out of energy when bursting with goremaw
Good things
thistle build relies on big evis dmg which just got nerfed
As expected
you have much bigger burst with goremaw + st + echo
Its front loaded as expected
Then demo just axe toss pves and you get cyclone rooted with 100 energy (example) give and take scenario/shrug
Tea “can” still do 180k eviscerates according to individuals who still utilize it
Agreed, its up to the rogue
pretty much just trading energy outside of cds for more dmg during cds
"hooboy look at this world pvp quest. A "Free for All"?? That sounds fun! let me bring four of my friends so we can have a fair match everyone!"
(read in nightfae or vulpera voice)
i've never seen a wpvper who bring groups play above 1500 level
it's always the handicapped people that camp in massive groups
Reminds me of this paladin who does that a lot. Homeboy runs around with a team and whispers people about it and taunts like charles barkley.
people like that you can usually kill in a single duel
Micky mouse house voice
A certain guild is incredibly lame that does that in big friggin groups. Looks like GW2 WvsW 400 people running around to kill 5 people who decided to make a bum fire and chill out for 30 sec.

The cycle of life: rogue gets nerfed > another 1 shot macro video is made
Then apes make the macro and mash a button only to lose > go on forum and complain about nerf
That's a content creator issue and buddy will never change. He always does that nonsense and yeah the forums will always blow up even though other classes are doing 250k+ hits without relying on extra stuff. Saw a fullmoon hit someone for 563k.
Is that actually macro, or just a phat gear diff?
both probably, can't really tell who isn't using scaling with greens these days specifically.
the difference in life can be off, if they craft "some" gear then it closes the gap a bit. I dunno, I don't watch crap like that, not a good look for us ever and the unecessary publicity. People can just CC the rogue and call it a day instead of griping.
Haha true
rogue uses reprimand! - stun him
rogue uses duel - aoe incap totem / intimidating shout etc. (although yeah get rid of duel and bargain already).
XD
just did a 2100 lobby with alt
we do anything at all or a single blue post starting with "R"
Forums: WHAT DID ROGUES GET NOW???
doesn't matter, we exist and people rage.
He did say that it wont work in actual high elo lobbies though
it's inverse math and stats to people because they have 1st grade reading comprehension.
it's a bit crazy, in order to have some burst and cc, how much we scarifies in dmg
It doesn't matter Bondo my boy, people will ignore all of that and rage because their brain didn't obtain enough folic acid from their parents from good nutrition growing up.
i just threw all cc to sub when he has blade on, then he just stuck in no dmg phase...
i feel sorry for him...
yep you just cc the rogue and they become a pine rider on the bench
that ret is just full green gear
Retribution buffs def have to be significant, 20% is a big big big leap which is ... brave to say at the least.
Usual passes are 3 - 6% which is considerable accounting for gear / gems / enchants etc as a cumulative increase.
20% is very brave.
i mean i think the main issue for ret is still casters
ret gets more dmg
and less armor
so against melee still alright
ain't no way the nerfs did that much then tack in life increase for % based healing from retribution and sanctified plates etc
Yeah Retribution has always had some type of magic issue though no? Prob won't ever change for balance reasons.
Even if WIngs of Liberty did become a thing (prob won't because of warrior kick back) , They instead proceeded for what ? 20 yard range and the Judgement of the Pure talent etc to keep Rets moving forward I assume as a more healthy alternative.
Haha
yeah it's not bad design
missing mobility against mage and etc.
but also got long skill range
judgement slow is prob more valuable than 2 additional horsies no?
yeah
is hand of hinderance even a thing anymore?
but judgement slow is bad anyway..
and blade of justice doesn't that slow too now or something?
it's just better than nothing...
30% is still better than jack
but 30% slow in pvp is ......
it doesnt work starting from the bracket that people remember what keybind is on what button
wake also provides a 50% slow too no?
Spellwarden as well , I dunno other retribution tools but I could see why the devs decided to not provide warrior type mobility as that would creep closer to them and such yadda yadda.
but regardless, you can't kite ret as melee
all ret skills are mid range
and for casters, you can't connect easily anyway pfff
yeah wowhead tooltip "says" it reduces movement by 50%
can't confirm as I am not a paladin obviously
@halcyon timber played with a random 2300 dude for a long time today. He said that I was really good. Chosing my own pace really helped me gain control over the battle. I am soo much better now already haha
i do ret a lot, anyway....
you had it all along man, don't you ever count yourself out or down. Head up and keep moving forward man.
you don't use main burst to slow...
Right however during their window that is an effect.
not arguing by any means but saying that they "do" possess tools. If hand of hinderance still exists then that is another one despite it being dispellable for balance reasons.
Also chose the build i am comfortable with, and ending up doing 14,5 mil damage in one game XD, it was a 2v3 from start ( won ofc) haha
yeah!
choose the one you feel better with
and you can always change later anyway
sub is quite free now
Always pick what stands out to you and do what you love - within reason clearly - If something ain't working, change it up a bit.
many different builds
Yeah i was muxh more comfortable out of burst cd
Can blizz just remove the night elf racial or make it impossible for nelfs to be a stealth class
I hate triple vanish so god damn much
All many ways to cook that turkey, all work well and probably are a lot closer than people realize. Realz and his team did a damn good job with talent diversity and skill / ability expression.
meld should jsut fade at this point
It does guarantee a restealth if you play it right
yeah meld isn't "true" stealth anyway and why the kaldorei kids have to mash stealth.
I use it on my monk heal to drink and it gets me out of combat every single time
well unless it is against disc, since they have a bug that gets you back in combat
crystalline reflection can do that as well
Treants keep druids in combat so be aware of that if attempting to sap out of blinds
Can you sap after fear?
You “can “
Depends on if anything is keeping them in combat or if people are cleaving (resets combat timers)
So target cant get hit during fear?
Correct- no dots and no maces in the faces
Yep most attentive class for sure
Dunno what’s up with blood dks doing 220k+ deathstrikes though
rets can counter casters
cuz the 20y midrange dmg
Mage: doing tony hawk tricks while yelling bonjour and blinks away xD
What’s the range on searing glare? Does that help rets out vs them?
Surprised rets don’t use precognition too
Played with a ret pala, they PUMP
Yeh they are pp slappers for sure
2s are so fucking miserable with Druid heals being broken as fuck
But more killable now
I guess that is one way to get heals to play shuffle
just make 2 unplayable with aweful balance
Saw pikas vid where he kicked ret casting searing and shut him down cuz he couldn’t bubble lmao
Holy school so makes sense
Same time, bubs shoulda juked
What is SOV amount at now with talents and such?
Not warlock levels but prob pretty high
The War Within talents for paladins will give that light armor stuff anyway pretty frequently so prob will offset this season’s tuning .
Just got 1.8 on my 4th char and I am still below 70% on the damn saddle mount
2s really need to give more % for that
i dont play searing glare
its very easy to dispell and an interrupt bait
you just cast judgment, freedom and in while u dont get it stolen
u reach the guy
Enhance / dh / ret / survival “midrange” pretty much
Yeh they pp slap
Fear def seems noticeably stronger since the patch
Wonder what the threshold actually is now
Glyph of blind in the old days
Was removed for a good reason
Heh
Any thoughts on hero talents boys? Hopefully reasonable stuff.

That’s fried
selfie of me sending dmg into demo
Yeh weird reminds me of that mage video some euro dude was posting that made these crazy bot program and was selling it. It did everything for the guy and the guy playing only had to move. Put this weird white ring with safe zones and stuff out. Hopefully those jokers are caught. Blizz already said they monitor key strokes and stuff (few months ago, i think it was)
Ppl in comments said he’s already banned.
Good get em outta here . Don’t jack up the game
But this guy was asking for it. With the nickname “perfect”. Lmao. Actually the priest is also with a weird nickname “bad”
The dismantle I “ could” understand to delay but not likely (no cds and priest wasn’t in cc etc) Whole thing was more sketchy than free hot dogs on the side of the road.
The targeting crap was botty af
Def glitchy , can just submit it is all you can do in bug report.
outlaw gang rise up
HELL YEAH OUTLAW GANG GANG
how much crit do we want for outlaw?
Isn't crit nerfed in pvp?
bro im rocking 43% crit and 40% vers
i am 12-1 in 3s since last night with this ele shaman i found in LFG and we just got past 1950 LMAO
lmao dude im getting 130k plus BTE crits in arenas
add in the dispatchy too, ain't no way crackshot doesn't crank. don't get addicted to big ol numbers boys or you'll be wearing a hood and commiting ritual sacrifices of discount hams in a walmart parking lot like warlocks over chaos bolt.
yeah if you rocking a 130k BTE crit with crackshot active dispatch prob critting for 60-70k
so thats a lot x 6 second spam its GGS
Is it tunned up in arena or am I missing something?
i look like a fucking corpse, would be funny to go arenas like that
idk the answer to that sry
just had a 4 minute long 3s and i had evasion up 5 times
16% of the match i had it up lol
Outlaw can pump. I’ve gotten ass whipped plenty of times
I mean dks clawing is tunned so it do trash dam even on pvp dummy.
But I excepted more from 488 gear tbh 😂
Let’s talk about some of the crazy feral crits I’ve seen though holy shit
I know their survival sucks but it is actually nuts lol
moonkin prob hit the hardest out of anyone. Not sure how but there are def 400k+ fullmoons going around.
Evasion cdr is better than 10%? Or that was a melee lobby?
it has a 2 minute CD. CDR was so good i pressed it 5 times within 4 minutes
i dont think i ever drop the cdr as law
