that's almost a feint, at all times
I’m guessing anything prone to dying in stuns will go for that
now imagine we keep most of the trash trickster tree, and outlaw has 100% uptime on feint AND the 15% further reduction
every spec can, probably other than mage
but precog is also big for casters
like for affli lock, yeah, getting hit 24/7 and high danger in stun
but one precog could means all dots on whole team
the stacking damage on snares is noob trap though
it doesn't look appealing
but i mean even if it's good dmg
probably would still go for -15% during stun
there is no world where you would ever take it over the reduced damage taken in CC
unless they nerf kidney and all stun one more time to 4 seconds
it would see it's most potent use against a rogue
and you're trolling if you took that instead of the stun damage reduction
I can see warlock going precog, I’m guessing stuff like evokers will go for the DR
depends on intreuption amount/range in other team and how many schools you have
some casters don't really care
they cast different schools
Might not be too easy to swap them early season depending on
The gem itself might be time gated, if not the socket probably will be?
socket probably is
Unless they go back to sockets on head
the gem will likely be ~700 conq
anyway it's 11.0
Meta gems or whatever
5% damage reduction for 3 seconds
or becomes 25% if sub is good
45 sec CD
if 25% with 45 sec cd, basically means our first go becoomes fake go?
First go is just cross-cc stun and get the hell out for go 2
No need to actually hit them
well
sap counts too
just sap all three and be gone

I’m going to bet that you’re gonna need to be in combat if they add a CD
that's why it would not have such a long cd
Unless it’s like evokers using their shroud out the gates
mass entangle, mass poly, frost nova, dragon root, dragon stun
And getting sapped x4
tons of aoe CC that would trigger such a CD
do i need to worry about keeping slice & dice up still? or is that up on it's own mostly
good to have, okay to miss a bit while
Hello! just started assassination rogue hoping to play it for season 4. I was wondering if there's a general guideline on when to use fan of knives vs mutilate for cp builders in solo shuffle. is it mutilate if there's only 1 target within my range and if there's 2 or more, I use FoK?
only use fan. mut sux big dik
oh damn so fan all the time (except poly/blind and stuff)?
yep
that simplifies things haha thank you very much
unless u play the shitty bone spike / doomblade build
indiscrimiate carnage and the crimson tempest build is the one I kinda copied over
ya 100% fok
perfect, thank you very much 😄
use fan of knives as main combo source, mut is for breaking totems mostly
Ah okay good to know thank you!
15min shuffle ques

probably gets better above 1.8-1.9
but this sucks
im getting bored
im bad af as lock BTW
2-2.1=>1.7
that can be a thing too
its the lobbies
its the only caster i actually tolerate
like what can u do if u que into 2 shammies 2 hunters 1 dh
in my last one had 2 DHs and a sp
dhs must be the most dog class
for pvp
legit garbage
everytime i see them dash behind pillars i press everything and they die
brainlet class
anyway
i think hpally might be cool next season
but its boring
up until now mage never let me down,its fun and all,love it
hunter is cool
im gonna try DK as well some time
and monk ofc
that mount is mine
period
dhs are the most dumb class overall
yeah
dunno how tf ppl doesnt feel filthy after using one
specially mains
so what's the best way to dump all this useless conquest before season ends?
im sharding them for next season
oyu mean I just open them and sell the item?
gonna make some early gold from enchanting
gear an alt,disenchant them,sell for raw gold
there are choices
affirmative
Sigh, I can't quite push rival this season. Been high 1770s multiple times and then get some comp where I get punished as main target
Really wanted to do it as outlaw, maybe the problem. The thing is, I rarely see any rogues vs atm
Using these talents for fights with a stun in it, switching to if caster heavy... would this seem sensible? I feel like I miss smokebomb
I suggest to take Enduring Brawler baseline, personally I take Take your Cut baseline too.
Then I play disarm where it is a boon to have: other rogue, warrior, ret, MM hunt
I take the stun buff talent where there is lot of stun and I don’t need disarm
I take either smoke bomb or boarding party vs ranger.
Currently 2200 in shuffle on Outlaw and 2060 in 3s
So not the best player in the world
@untold remnant do you often find you're bottom of dmg meter
This appear to be my problem
Good tips though, thanks. Take your cut is nice indeed
Very match to match dependent. Sometimes I’m blasting with blade flurry cleave and I do 115k dps and top the meter. Other times I’m more focused on control and short burst.
Good thing about outlaw is that you can do both and live pretty well
I just had a game with 4 melee, ass rog, fury warr, ench shaman. It was crazy, and at first I thought ok will do some good dmg with bf. It was okay, but the others all outdid me. I was trying to get a nice gouge blind stun on heal so maybe explains the fall of output, but didn't even up well for me with 2 wins only 😦
what are the top skills I need to constantly be aware of as sub? i have a really smol brain... so i need like 6 skills close to the center of my screen, more than that my brain explodes lol
everything else i can use weakauras for and put at the bottom, but trying to figure out what 6 i need to leave in the middle
gm all ❤️
Outlaw is really gear dependent, I was playing with sub gear and did trash. Swapped to 46% versatility and 38% crit and saw my damage go up significantly
u rly dont need anything outside dr trackers for pvp
using WA packs isnt something critically needed for pvp
omnibar is a cool thing to have
ok ty
yes i got to get my addons again
what are the most important addons I have to have? i want as least as possible
target of target is also good coz u pretty much know what ppl target at any given situation,easier to predict stuff that way
ok ty
target of focus good too right?
target of target encopses all
focus target is still a target,so u see what ur focus target targets
fuck me 6 straight losses, I want to cry
I feel like outlaw doesn't last too long if you have a heavy melee and caster on you
you got this keep going ❤️
outlaw is pretty strong into any brawl scenario but u cant rly have a lock or a mage free casting on you
i solo highend geared hpalies on my mage
I'm so emotional now your well wishes actually helped haha
outlaws isnt rly a problem
Yeah any match I am trying to convince them to tunnel the caster
Its not about tunnel anything
its about constant swapping for those gouges and kses
and kill when uve got the opportunity
I do this too, but I think this is where the dps loss is
ofc tis a dps loss
using DR addon only too
Honestly in the last ... month? or so, I think I saw 1 sub rogure
outlaw excels in controlling and brawling
outlaw is very strong in coordinated groups
like yday all rank 1 rogues streamed outlaw rmps
wow rly
Yeah I think if I was better, and climbed, it might actually be easier and other classes know how to play with me
at the moment it's a rat race
pretty much
in lower ratings and especially in shuffles no one rly cares to utilize a team comp
they just go in do as muchd mg as they can and kill before die
barely qualifies as rated pvp
I see mostly outlaw and assassination, you rarely ever see the spec you play yourself though
I prefer solo because I'`m done with the toixity of RBG (even though I actually enjoy them)
Outlaw basically just spams cc on everything it feels like, makes it difficult to play a caster/MM, in my experience
Outlaw and DK lobbies are definitely chaotic at lower ratings, warriors too sometimes
Yea, I think the main reason for the loss is on average even if you're doing all the good cc and trying to control the fight, you're dependent on the other guy to do the dmg when needed and you need to align that damage too
I think another thing I do too much is blow it all at the start and get cc'd to hell
Maybe I need to hold off a bit and get all the insta fears and stuns out of the way then blow up
I see outlaws continually pumping damage and disrupting the main target and then using cc on the other DPS when they’re close enough, I don’t see outlaws go for cc on the healer etc as often as the other specs
but that's just what I've seen
u shouldnt hold alot unless u are into specific tactics
u need to apply pressure
full send
I think because if you do go out to get the heal they often have a cc for you too
if u are forced to trinekt before them u ar epretty much dead
play like a warrior 😛
thats not a problem,thats a healer issue if u dont get dispelled
outlaw is pretty much a better version of fury
imagine holding evasion and clos as outlaw
thats criminal
Fury has ridiculous damage though, seen some do 120k dps (2 targets) in shuffles lasting 2-3 min
thats not even alot^^
Might be more then
there are classes that can do 150k+ in a 2min game
I might be forgetting the numbers but the fury did the same as the other three, had it happen a lot recently
but ye fury ofc does more dmg
This is like 1700 on an alt healer though
All I really want is to complete the set for rival 😛 but this season ran out of time
If I understood it, I could get it s4
u can do rival pretty fast if u get like 4-5 good lobbies
Was 1775 or so this morning and was ready, thought it was my time. 1-5 losses, nearly cried
I feel like rogue is hard time to climb out of that 1650-1700 mess
dotn get intimitated brother
S4 is the same set supposedly so should be fine
its pvp,it happens
You can just play for now without the pressure since you’ve got another chance
true
do like a thousand shuffles if u can
or more before season ends
next season u will be flying
which one do i want
Gladiusex or sArena are the common ones afaik
tyty
whatever works,it doesnt matter which is the most poppular
just make sure to track diminishing returns CD(thats an embodied gladius feature,press /gladius and activate it)
and learn what stuff shares dr to what
omnibar or nameplatecooldowns?
whatever u find more comfortable
at this point its like giving us ur rogue to play with
omnibar is on the bottom center of your screen
nameplates requires platter
jw what yall prefer
ah ok tyty
only last advice i could give u is not overloading ur UI with stupid sht
keep it clean
do i need diminish? says discontinued
but i can see DRs with gladius right
yes def i want as few as possible
u just need 1 source of information which u can rely on
to track DRs
its simple
dont use 10 addon and gladius to track drs
its stupid and of no use
if u use gladius stick with gladius
ok sweet tysm
ok so i have: bigdebuffs, gladiusex, omnicd, omnibar, & omnicc
do i need all 3 of those omni ones with the others?
also what are the most important WA packs to have? i see mes WAs mentioned a lot, anything else?
There's a WA telling you when your healer is in CC, that's pretty useful'
omnicd or omnibar u dont need both
omnicc is the cooldown counter to all skills omnicd is self explanatory
you see all cds
omnibar something like omnicd just a bit more chaotic
u dont rly need alot,keep it simple
gladius literally provides u with all the information u need
wa's,sound indications are all garbage
go in,que and train
there will be 10 diff ppl say what they find its useful for any given situation in arena
u dont need 90% of those
I'd say WA is nice since you can customise it yourself, haven't got much on rogue but it can be nice to track buffs etc with no other UI indicators
yes i know jw what yall thought since you guys are all pros 😉
ty all so much for your help ❤️
r1 soonTM
not even close on being a pro friend,just an old rogue with tens of thousands of arena games on his belt
dont overthink or try accumulate stuff quickly
go slow but learn
its a process
keep it simple,u will learn more through simplicity
well i know mage disarmer is a pro, he is a god amongst men
everywhere i go, they chant, "PRAISE MAGE DISARMER" right @jolly sierra?
new season tomorrow or next day?
New season at reset.
Tuesday for NA
Wednesday for EU
^
tysm ❤️
To queue tonight or tomorrow 🤔
One rogues bracket is busted. I have a feeling the other two will go the same lol
LF rogues to be a guest on my podcast to talk about PVP and one of the specs (your choice).
what is the poison applied with Shiv?
What podcast are you running?
crippling poison
Technically PVP
ty
and i pretty much want to always cast it off CD right
just when peeling?
u do that when u wanna chase down someone or run
Is it new? I haven't heard of it
no. we've been running for many years now. over 200 episodes
why didn't you?
language issues to followup the chat flow
fair
~My bad fam, Had no idea that type of podcast existed. The only WoW related podcast i've been hearing these past few years is "The Starting Zone"
No worries. I've been bad at promoting
You got yourself another follower and a 5* spotify review (once i can actually review since i need to listen to some eps first)
Thank you so much!
or fuck with warrior 😄
Do they lose much from the enrage?
try shadenox or raz
ild be happy to hear one of those,both rank 1 rogues,both volturing here
I sent @chrome schooner a DM. 😉 thanks!
Which Raz would that be here? nvm. found him
@tawny kestrel
Would you be interested?
no thx
OK
Does anyone know why Assassination specs takes me out of stealth when I press mount
or any action
when im sub rogue this doesnt happen
subterfuge
fr? never notice that
Mr. Transmog doesn't know what he's talking about pffft
yeah using eye glass takes u out of stealth unless u take subterfuge
same with vanish > mount
for escape


saved me hours
of headache
trying to figure out
why sub did it
but no other spec
I tought this basic stealth 😄
Mr.Tmog is here to save the day
Does anyone know of something similar to the Smarttabtarget addon?
sry thought you are the best we got 🫶
are they finally thinking in us?
What class do think has it easiest for Randi battle grounds?
Ranged classes
Mm Hunter seems to be doing well. Boomkins too
mm known as noob killer
That Sniper shot....way too much dmg
MM is fun in BGs, you basically oneshot people from twice their range
Wouldn't want to main it though
do i need to switch to horde for the racial bonus as blood elf? i’m void
Yep
Why would you want that tho
i’m not sure which racial is better for sub
but i’m only playing void or blood, sexiness > ranking
whatever u like more
If you want to choose for power --> nelf / orc / human
Who knows what appearance I would get if u put crafted gear into catalyst
Need a head from normal 😂
You can't, right?
Wmode pvp upgraded = normal
i mean i can't be sure if it get normal appearence right away of if you need to upgrade the item a few times (pve ilvl) till you reach normal threshold
Or just get a veteran piece of gear, catalyst it and upgrade it to 5/8
u sure? Cuz I recall getting just glad version of it
From warmode pvp items?
yea, for bloody tokens, right?
yeah, those dont give PvP appearences
with weekly strafe or whatever it called
yeah
Im 99% sure you can just use a warmode upgraded item to get both LFR and normal appearances
hmm.. it gaved me pvp conq appearence instead :\
at least it was like that a few months ago
okay, so bloody pieace with strafe should end up with normal, right?
Or I need to upgade it more?
oh, I see. Thats why I prob got just conq appearence when I tried
tnx, mate
4\8 is deff lfr
1-4 LFR, 5 is normal mode
❤️ awesome
Champion 1-4 normal tmog, 5 heroic tmog
best 2 options for 2s partners?
ok cool tysm
omfgggg i neeeeed
Its a RNG problem
Cataclysm raid - Blackwind Descend - Last boss drop
(just do it on 25 man mode for extra loot)
jesus.. emerald dream is current sparks location
and I just cleaned 50% of the quests there
I can in theory help you, but its probably easier for you to complete the remaining WQ's for the 10% each, get treasures for 5% and then i could try to log on the opposite faction and let you kill me for a bit
that was cool af in cata
but shadowflame is still the spiritual successor
I have the AliExpress version
lol
I really NEED the personal tabard
Just had war chest disappeared right at my nose 😄
NOOO
~I enjoy looking OG, but i still want a tabard to match, and i don't have the more black TCG ones
shadowflame in home:
if u were horde then AB tabard would be your option
what spec?
the best in that season

what bout illidari green tabard?
grew tired of it :c
I wanted the OG argent tabard
klaxxi tabard?
F
Scryers is probably the best match
and the TCG black tabard?
that's the one i want and HOPE appears on the amazon prime
id tap it
Yeah i got it but idk, i just don't personaly like that one even tho it fits, panda brother
maybe is the chest
Give me Void
Yes, as a tmog point of view, this sucks balls. But for people that played thruought the expansions, especially since the start PRE transmog, where you could judge a guy for his equiped gear / "tmog"
when using bad gear which looks cool was used as "roleplay"
I remember those days man
I love Argent Dawn EU, there are still players USING the items without Tmog
They, looking at people with TMOG on
Okay Sorry PVP channel, i've filled the chat with enough tmog related topics for a week
tbh i hate item type restrictions when cosmetic sets exists
We will get a lot of cosmetic sets next exp
like a cloth vest and being used even as plates but not the cloth briefs from vanilla
yo, thanks for the tip. I didn't knew chest gives so much.
You bet i try everything to make my life easier, especially now that those "spark farm groups" are non existant
The only thing i can understand is... You won't look at a mage wearing heavy plate armor and be like "nah this makes sense fr"
Its because you've already upgraded an item to 6/8 on that slot
Yes
Once you upgrade an item for the first time to X level, the crests required are reduced to 0 for further items
prolly cuz I had a piece from 1.6 token. Dont recall I upgrade 😄
hmmm u know
i can have very heavy pieces with leather actually and look like a warrior
fr? is this blizzard game are we talking? 😄
Man this as been like this since s2 xD
Yes you're right
haven't played pve since SL. So I never knew since pvp gear is maxed out in arena. cool
i'm not a PvP'er like you guys, i just reach 1800 with 1 to 3 classes per season and never pvp again until next season
i mostly play for tmog, which requires me to raid atleast heroic
I would’ve run a few Mythic+ too, but 80% of my Battle.net are russian, and as you know, they don’t play WoW anymore
So I just farm 1.8 on my alts
i just pug
look im w my lock RN
I tried once. Spent 20 minutes in LFG and queued solo
Yeah exactly, cosmetics FTW.
damn, why I didn't ask earlier.
Anything Tmog related, #transmog might have the answers for you
Vault didn't have a way to cheese Raidfinder tmog, i wouldn't force myself to do LFR
I have all sets from this expansion but LFR vault
I got the LFR ones by no mythic and some heroic
Just curious how did u got mythic?
heroic raiding / m+
Heroic drops Hero gear, and when you upgrade it to 480, you get the mythic appearance
same with mythic +16
Yeah it was COOKED for tmog farmers like myself
Oh Egoist idk if you know already but
When Warbands get released later in s4 / prepatch (?), you'll be able to learn the appearance of ANY item (Specific class tiers are one of the exceptions) once you loot it with any character
Example: Looting the tusks of mannoroth on your rogue, and your warrior being able to use the tmog
Yea, I know that. Not that I’m a big tmog farmer. But this is great feature
Yeah but lets say you NEED to farm a dungeon or something for a weapon. Atleast 100% of the time you're spending doing that is being rewarded for future alts
Pffffttttt
What!? xD
Oh youuuu
What me :C
@jolly sierra Already testing for when the personal tabard gets released

need to to that later
same
got a match with a BM monk
wtf
the guy dragged me away from plataform
seems no one I ask wants to talk about rogues
I'd see it more like "people are shy about talking to a big public"
i would if ppl speaks spanish
I wish I spoke more languages.
dont worry
Writting in english is pretty easy
Now speaking? oof.
I can but the further the conversation goes, the more i lack the vocabulary to keep it clean
habla espanol Mage?
si
or they speak way too fast to understand at moment
specially if ppl are non natives like us lol
muy bien
necissito practico mi espanol para las chicas calientes
I'm fine in understanding english since everything i watch in youtube is in english, and all the podcast i hear aswell
LOL HYPER
The only Spanish sentences I can form are not very nice... my roommate in Taiwan taught me 😂
It's just a nice way to greet strangers in spanish, hola mi(s) maricón(es?)/maricóna(s?)
I used it every time I met a spanish speaker who wasn't a nun/priest
"hola conchetumare"
IF you approach Brazilian people you can also say something like that "Olá Veado"
Its a nice and respectful way to say hello

gibe moni plox
BR BR BR BR BR
on my 3rd day of customizing everything, fixing my ui, fixing addons, correcting macros, & finishing my weakauras
remind me not to ever quit wow again
OH HOW I FEEL YOU MATE
Always save your ui
it technically never ends
this innocent soul. adorable
I just got done making minor tweaks to the WA packs I built for Rogue and Paladin, and completely overhauling my Plater profile
let me see yall's screens i'm curious
wrong screenshot
bruh
very nice
How often does assa throw knives in arena
https://9gag.com/gag/azxgnmp first and second comment
is what i had on screenshot
mage yours looks nice too but you're killing me with all this empty space right here lol
no no
wait untill u see his debuff setup 😄
it's physically impossible to compliment Panda's UI
you need to see it while he is in combat
What resolution are you playing? 😮
it seems urs even bigger than mine
rlly lol
1764x932
Figured, large UI 😄
Think I had some other non-standard resolution a few years ago as well, worked well though
dios mio
didn't you get a new PC last year, why so small
dagger & what rn is best?
double dagger for Sub
OOF its trickz run
Claw oh, dagger main
1920 x 1080
i dont use it in fullscreen
just in window
as long as it works for you, more power to you 🙂
me stronk
And I thought ur debuff icons were strange 😂
XD
yeah yeah i know my fkn UI is a meme
here
but for me it works
lol
i like it, it's like, "organized chaos"
exactly as i was described by my classmates in university
True. And u r better rogue than me.
But I can’t resist 😂
HUH
dont focus on getting the 2nd dagger, main pieces are better so you can catalyst them for tier BUT tbf the season ends like next week xD
yah just trying to figure out what to get before season starts, so maybe just a dagger and chest piece? i have total trash gear atm
Tbf just farm honor and dont think about it too much
is conq uncapped atm?
around 12k so when season starts you get yourself with full gear honor and queu shuffle
yes
ok ty i'll just try to hone in on my rotation & not worry about it
Plus as royal said. Oh is just a stat stick.
Looks like we're gonna have to go with Option 1
2267 damage is pretty low if our health bars are already reaching +900k
Even if we're snared for 10 seconds
thats 22670 damage, pretty mid
damn im surprised they decided to worse something was already bad
15% Damage Reduction goes a long way because of how much uptime you'll get with it
Certain comps become alot more bearable with that 15% damage reduction 
Imagine getting CC chained by a lock w. that 15% DR
w. 20% from Feint
20% from Evasion
- ~41% - 52% Vers (20.5% - 26% DR)
prefeint w that would be funny af
DN? Yeh was when they reworked it to exchange for thieves going to outlaw
I mean feral will retain 80% armor when they shift from bear and other goodies /shrug
Im a one way street primo
same
Regardless of what happens
15% gem prob isn’t going to get an ICD and it will prob be their way of discouraging “micro cc”
if we got Evasion + Feint + Pistol talent + Deadened Nerves
no Vers accounted for yet
Feint will likely get nerfed or versatility defensive heavily DRd further to accommodate
~31.5% Damage taken w. 45% vers
meh i would micro cc anyways
15% can help sure
but u can still do good dmg in a burst w that
like a rupture tick
yep
Kinda a big deal not including other stuff and healing going on
i would take the gem as a complement
rather than something to depend
complement for our defensives
Hero talents are also going to be tuned down naturally as well so /shrug
Agreed, its solid
The casters will play between 2 gems
depending if it synergizes or compliments their build
Warlock gained more dark pact in one of those trees too yeah?
Shaman hydro bubble is interesting too.
It'd be interesting to see if Assa and Outlaw had their shared hero talent be all about amplifying their abilities
we can check that w ret tho
Fatebound should be pretty dang cool honestly
they already have 2 hero talents revealed
Yea
Its just us, priest, shaman and dh left i think
Bfa flame being back for paladins is nuts
300% SP on hit
skirms or rated?
Wasn’t there a guy who did that this season who really made it work?
Mass bombardment from evoker or whatever its called will be crazy too
The gem might just need there to even out a lot of stuff like that too ig
We dunno enchants yet for weapons
tf are u doing in reddit @harsh steppe? lol
Reddit is like going to chuck e cheese expecting a good pizza
can someone help me with this math problem?
thought I was supposed to gain 51 elo, not 27. This is my very first season, so I dont know if the calculations are different. might not get it
it says rating
so its doesnt show your rating gains anymore? just your mmr? I thought that was usually hidden ( in most games)
Red is rating
Green is MMR/MMV
It's never been hidden in WoW afaik
It's separate like in most games
but MMR/MMV is visible in WoW unlike games like league
Seems so
hmm ok. been so long since I played so cant remember what I was at, might have been something like that. Dunno
Different each season anyways 🤷♂️
cross verifying LOL
yeah fr i asked about the rotation & got a wacky response or two
I do spend my fair share of time on reddit, and boy sometimes people's answers scare me
well usually i always just ask you guys first but sometimes if I'm realllllllly wanting to triple check i'll ask reddit
kinda stopped this season and went back a little now. When I was learning the game I got down to 900 elo, climbed back up to about 1530 ig. Think I just got tired of 90% waiting and 10% playing.
Yeah, the queue times in shuffle aren't great
Amen brother
I get something like 40-50% actually playing (counting all time spent in the arena), so I guess 2s or 3s would be better
My friend I do 2s with isn't on every day I am though, and our 2s comps make it harder to climb than shuffle 😂
yeah. 2s are instant pop. Dont know about 3s. might get my classic friend to play some pvp with me. just made him get Warwithin, he is a warrior though. Not best comp in pvp. rouge war
not best? that's down right awful
dude is normal warrs counters locks?
i know then can fuck off the pact
but
OOF
warriors beat up anything in cloth
god dammit
arent mages cloth?
yes, and if you let a warrior get on top of you, you're in for a hurtin
tbh the hardest matchups w my lock are warrs
with a bajillion blinks I hope that doesnt happen
i teleport the fucker is already there
tried to slow
bladestorm
pact
instabroken
try to CC, berserker rage
i do it later anyways
pretty decent mobility
how often do you guys use a) shuriken storm & b) shuriken toss?
0 i play assa
I'd say warriors are annoying for sure, not as bad as DKs I guess
Gotta play around the pillar a lot I guess
ill use shuriken storm, whenever I see a rouge vanish, or anyone vanish. If Im looking for someone who is stealthed basically
i see
dont know about shuriken toss tbh 40 energy for 1 cp and very low dmg. I dont use it at all. Might be missing out, dont know. Just doesnt sound good
Sometimes for rogues/others with stealth, sometimes because 1 storm=full CP if there are pets
but that's just me
1 per target hit
toss?
Damage is low though so I won't use it if I'm bursting either
I'll just use toss if I can't do anything else and I'm capped on energy, which is more often than I'd like against roots..
Shuriken toss to keep people in combat or as a generator sometimes when rooted. Storm when in a rat pack or trying to deceive some mfs on who you’re actually going to slam(spreading wound / crippling) and building cheaper cost cb pts
Can also use distract to stop healers drinking their mana milk
need fast kidney. Just do shuriken for noice cp
Also nice if I'm trying to save PV stacks for whatever reason
That's rare though, I usually just ignore them..
Pv is sick , nice to have a customizable fat hit
Yeah, I'm usually too distracted to keep track
but it is nice getting a fat GB or ER
I make my own weak aura art so it is easy to track
I do too, but I still don't lmao
XD
thats wow. Just get a bajillion weakauras/addons, and dont look at em. I try to keep my screen clean and minimal. Only a few addons
Just did an update to it as well but idnt use wa for anything else
Yeh just wa art, tmw for drs and elv for custom bars . Idc about anything else
I just have a few basic WAs like this for SnD, SD, SB, PV and then the finalities
middle thing is subterfuge, ignore the cow
so the cow is not a part of the WA?🧐
No, he's part of the Strongaura
tyty
for the subs in here, what is your E and Q keys bound to?
yes i know it's pref obv but jw
I do backstab and shadowstrike to Q and E respectively
q is secret tech for me, and e has always been a mobility button for me. So I got shadowstep on E
where do y’all bind shuriken toss & storm?
mousebutton 2 for toss and shift mousebutton 3 for storm
Shift-mousebutton 5 for shuriken storm, and ctrl-mousebutton 4 for shuriken toss
tysm
Honestly, with keybinds just create a system that makes sense to you, I've usually got defensives on T and shift T for instance
just find what makes you comfortable.
across classes
remember that there are pros in cs that move using left click, and all sorts of buttons, while having an inverted mouse. So there are no wrong keybinds (unless you cant reach them with your fingers ofc)
supposedly
A league pro crossed his arms playing because he was left handed until a teammate pointed out how he could just put the mouse on the left side of the keyboard
hahah
So what server time does season end tomorrow
T and shift T
Exactly this
I dig it man. Im in the middle of painting more art to be added. In the middle of exams and stuff atm so it will be a long project to do as i have time.
Kinda want to see it later then, mine's very practicality minded, or ugly, depending on what you want to call it
Its really in early stages as i dont have a lot of time to paint atm but for verbal visual acuity “thieves kit” is what im shooting for.
I hand painted my favorite daggers (i like simple stuff) and use them for symbols and blades and they use a simple animation to show when ready and when on cd etc. dance is in the center with a wip icon to show duration, phase in and out / desaturate when no charges etc. goremaws (fave cool ability has its own) and secret with its own stuff but eventually ill be painting hand drawn icons for those too with custom parts to show diff information. Perforated as well etc and shadow techniques stacks etc. a lot of work but visual representation catches my eye a lot more than normal bars. (Kinda like how ffxiv does their class bars) but im making my own thing. Just hard to make time for it with grad school and such
Sounds like a fairly lengthy process, couldn't imagine doing it myself but I'd very much like to see it later on ^^
I appreciate it man, not really. Mostly having time to paint as the triggers are all set up. I like the RPG type interfaces and played a lot of shit like ff7 as a kid
Just playing with what ive got until i can chip away at the individual paintings but tyvm for the kind words and stuff
Heyo is the Warlord title still achievable?
yes
Maybe not this season though
whats wrong with this season?
just too late lol
There's like two days left yeah
oh wait
theres a difference in factions
alliance has fuckin Marshal
thats so lame compared to warlord
imo imo
horde has champion too
Any of the knight titles are kinda ok
Grand marshal if you also look like a banana
Others only if you RP or something I guess
"Grunt"
just Lieutenant couldve been cool too
unless thats a title somewhere else already
must not be that easy then
geez
There are two of each, one being from RBGs and one from vanilla
you might be looking at the vanilla one
this is the one I was checking out
ye indeed is the newest one
but remember
pvp players are in like the ~%5 of total playerbase
look at duelists
1k8 rivals
2k rivals
at like 3 days away from end season
oh thats interesting
Huh, the regular rival one is less common than I expected to be honest
So I guess less than 10% play arena
The first two I linked are overall, last one is current season
i know
its surprising how this drops by a lot with season passing
and how this pve achiv is so rare
To be fair, I'm fairly certain SL and BfA got higher number partially because BfA had a lower entry requirement when PvErs had better gear by default
and SL required some PvErs to grind for rival etc anyways
I know mages in particular "had" to grind arenas in SL, that 1 min cd trinket was pretty big for their burst
and SL s2 was fairly inflated
yep
by far the rarest i have are those ones
https://www.dataforazeroth.com/leaderboards/completion-score
if u wanna check the rarity u can go here
yep
Strange, I got 1800 on 3 classes the past few weeks
in shuffle which I assume counts
there
Yeah, I did
apparently rival this season is rarer than cutting edge in CN
Still doesn't beat my 2k in 5s apparently
Was 5s ever a big thing? I only ever played it once and we got 2k in one evening, I barely remember anything beyond standing behind a pillar mistweaving 😂
seems like it did
We did face some r1 resto druid streamer once and they completely destroyed us
Can't remember which one it was
Wow nice!!
thanks, it was a hard lobby
even 3 chars, the 3rd char will never step in dungeon AT ALL
Orc 🤢
I developed an intolerance towards the orcs following the orc meta
I would rather be GY-camped by a gnome than an orc
finally
gratz dude
u are from the bottom playerbase rn
almost no one reached 2k4
i fkn hate gnomes
top 50 sin NA!
Gnomes looks aweful
Join me as necro
hope next season
have more players
tbh this one for me was the hardest from late time
the amount of glads was disgusting
u can complain less about having issues w ppl at ur same rating and similar xp
it's not inferno level but much harder than i would have thought
but meeting mglads in low rankings or r1 at 2k2+ is just a real problem
Yeah hopefully more people join pvp at s4
since pve it was just a repeat
pvp is also a repeat but at least they didn't try
Considering transferring my rogue to alliance for a guild, I feel like I have to be a night elf 😛
yeah it needs to be nerfed
isn't guild already cross alliance/horde lol
my horde/alliance chars are at same guild
Kinda, but some open world stuff as well as casual BGs aren't, so it makes some sense to be the same faction anyways
hence considering, I'll stay horde for now
damn
We're basically golddiggers or something at this point, choosing based on racials
I mean, I chose based on looks so I guess it's more like getting a trophy wife?
It's getting late and I'm making less and less sense 🙂
chosing on looks is like playing without caring about what other ppl thinks about u
instead choosing to get better or optimal
To be fair, I think most people do so, except PvPers and hardcore PvErs
yeah in method for example for wod ppl chose BE just to get like 1% more overall dmg
xd
w BE crit racial
I remember when everyone rolled troll for the Jaina fight
etc
Also, belf was meta in m+ for the AoE silence until they changed it
ye
be skill was good
silence + no gcd
in tbc/wlk i was able to open mage with stun + silence
it was huge
Always been and always will be blood elf.
BE skill isn’t all that bad now. I’ve killed many a ret that bop’d low thinking they were safe
Yeh or wiping other buffs can be nice like shields.
Anyone have even an inkling about the play for season 4? Is Assa going to be performing at the same level it is or should I start anticipating a switch to sub or OL?
we got the enchants guys
sounds like we gonna use any of those ones
and the cursed ones (drop a stat and get a better one)
need
I don’t thing any of these are better than 2k main stat
dunno if those stacks
Pretty sure they do
so i have a side mouse button razer for extra buttons, & i'm trying to figure out how to start assigning keybinds for them
it's 12 buttons, so with modifiers, that's about 48 extra keybinds
do i just go through and do focus 1-12 stuff (kick, shadowstep to, etc.), then do arena1 stuff, then arena 2, and then arena 3?
Lmao. After using naga for 4 years. I just realize I can use side buttons with shift/alt 😂
I only use 8 of them. I think I might reconsider my keybinds now 😂
To the people who have been around since MoP or even BFA, was the Rival bracket polluted with glad alts like it is now at the end of those xpacks? I’ve been going through my arena logs and literally every match is full of people with crazy xp. I’m capping out at 1924 and I’m not upset since this is the second season I’ve “really” played. And yeah I know it doesn’t matter either way.
There are less people playing
The ones at that brackets are mostly people with exp grinding alts
Yeah. That makes sense. Thanks. Just got absolutely flamed by multi glad holy pally in SS (he went 0/6) that made me question how I even know how to tie my shoes.
Also, rival now starts at 1800
Was that not the case before?
No
I thought rival was always 1800
