but the actual thing has always been awc (i think?)

halcyon timber
#

Yeah paladin is odd, dunno if people are just new at it or what

steel scarab
#

Holy paladin is definitely incredibly hard to play ATM, it seems. The gap between a good one and a bad one is a chasm

halcyon timber
#

Maybe real experienced paladins don’t have issues but it is always weird

dapper chasm
#

You can't take the tourney plays too serious. Those players all know each other and have weird metagames

halcyon timber
#

They just got a bunch of new tools and updates too

potent pivot
steel scarab
#

Versus most resto druids 1700-2100 feel similar

halcyon timber
#

Glad to see that for them

dapper chasm
potent pivot
#

yeah but that's the point i was trying to make earlier

#

unless your opponents make mistakes in some way, burst isn't like it was last expac for example

dapper chasm
#

The amount of walls now is pretty silly

potent pivot
#

but the lower you go, the more mistakes are made

#

so it's kinda w/e for most people

dapper chasm
#

I dunno, I just started

#

But it feels like late cata right now with how immortal everyone is

steel scarab
#

The only time I see people explode before defensives or through defensives is with fire mages

#

Which, personally

potent pivot
steel scarab
#

I do not understand how they think it's okay for a class to have that much burst AND an immunity

potent pivot

#

Listening to propaganda is #1 reason

dapper chasm
#

I've been trying to avoid all wow content, learn as I go

#

But I do love some good moaning

halcyon timber
#

Kek

potent pivot
#

i don't think it was necessarily moaning

dapper chasm
#

Oh

#

Can we?

potent pivot
#

?

dapper chasm
#

Man fuck homogenisation, etc

#

Why are locks tanks now etc etc

halcyon timber
#

Homogenized milk is good

tribal badger
#

i feel like not reseting mmr at all this season really was the gutshot in an already dying pvp scene

#

just really showed blizz was already focused on next expac and this is a meme season

dapper chasm
#

Yeah, that's good hate

halcyon timber
#

Warlocks “always” could take a hit

tribal badger
#

waiting on 2500 queue timers on day one at zero cr

dapper chasm
potent pivot
tribal badger
#

its ok i bypassed it (swapped to sin which i havent played all expac so my mmr is default mmr)

potent pivot
#

basically just an extended s3 kekdog

tribal badger
steel scarab
#

I feel like all they had to do in order to drum up participation is just recolor the sets

#

That's it

#

Super low effort and would've gotten more participation

tribal badger
#

well they did recolor them didnt they

dapper chasm
#

So, I'm going to ask the hard question now. Is sub an actual spec right now? Or have I been carried by my raw skills?

steel scarab
#

Maybe even like, throw a particle effect over the shoulders

dapper chasm
#

I have no point of comparison

potent pivot
steel scarab
#

@dapper chasm try playing it at 1400

tribal badger
#

subs a spec thats been viable if u were good at it even back when blizzard took like all its damage away and just made it a cheap shot bot

dapper chasm
#

I think I got to 1800 now

potent pivot
#

assa has just been the more "meta/preferred"

steel scarab
#

It's much more fun the higher you go, because people don't ruin your DR

tribal badger
#

good sub players will literally always make it work

dapper chasm
#

I find people ruining my DR MORE as I go up the ranks

steel scarab
#

I found sub was a joke from 0 to 1400, just absolutely wrecked every lobby last season 6-0 with no idea how to play sub, and then became hard from 1400 to 1700

#

And I stopped at 1700, hardstuck

halcyon timber
#

People not using anyyyy defensive and lining their healer getting cranked : gAhd dam rOgues!!!
(As they punch the air)

dapper chasm
#

It seems that 1800-1900 is very mechanical players

#

Pressing weird buttons at weird times

#

I don't feel hard stuck at all, as the worst is usually 3-3

#

I just don't wana play a gimp spec by accident

tribal badger
#

in my experience the 1800-2200 range is a broad range of players that are either very good at pvp but playing something theyve never played/clearly dont know how to before

#

or players very good at their spec but who arent really pvp brained

halcyon timber
#

Sometimes you die to diablo 4 damage and some healers just aint healing

tribal badger
#

at least in solo shuf

dapper chasm
#

I think I'll try and get a 3s going again

#

Learn some foreign swear words, have a good time

halcyon timber
#

Like Wild was talking about holy paladin earlier

#

He was right

potent pivot
#

i wouldn't necessarily call it gimped, but there are a lot more assa rogues in the top 100

#

that's for SS

halcyon timber
#

Saw a dude counting beans or something while a hunter was doing tony hawk tricks on his forehead

dapper chasm
#

Can I in good conscience use my old xp when searching for new partners?

potent pivot
#

how old is your xp

dapper chasm
#

Old

surreal barn
#

Dang I’m at 21 now

dapper chasm
#

Cata old

wintry dew
#

WW2 old

surreal barn
#

Y’all been pumpin

potent pivot
#

yeah idk if i would use that ngl

#

that's a long ass time

dapper chasm
#

But I did hit rank 1

#

For... Some time

surreal barn
#

Zanaken every spec has disarm now

potent pivot
#

you can give it a shot

surreal barn
#

Just wanted you to know 😂

potent pivot
#

when i came back to wow in SL i didn't use my old xp

#

from wrath

#

etc

halcyon timber
#

Lol we had dismantle back in the day too

dapper chasm
#

We can cloak disarm now, that's pretty tasty

halcyon timber
#

Before the garbage pruning

surreal barn
halcyon timber
#

Yeah cuz mistweaver throws out a rope from home depot disarming you

dapper chasm
potent pivot
#

lol

dapper chasm
#

You're the same man you once were

#

Just... More seasoned

potent pivot
#

naw i was rusty AF

#

like, bad. lmao

dapper chasm
#

Dude, I didn't even change my cata binds or macros

#

Just added the new shit

surreal barn
#

People have gotten so good comparatively though

dapper chasm
#

I completely disagree

potent pivot
#

it took me a good couple weeks practicing in 2v2 to get back into the rythm of things

dapper chasm
#

People still suck

surreal barn
#

They sucked more

dapper chasm
#

I've been playing a lot for 2-3 weeks now

#

I feel... Snappy, just unknowledgeable

potent pivot
#

it helped that i had been raiding for months though

#

before i jumped back into pvp

#

got Cutting Edge etc

dapper chasm
#

I still haven't done a normal dungeon

potent pivot
surreal barn
#

I did my first mythic+ last week

potent pivot
surreal barn
#

Felt weird

dapper chasm
#

I have the best ui in the world, actually

potent pivot
#

wait

dapper chasm
#

First thing I did when I reinstalled

potent pivot
#

are you the guy that's been showcasing his custom ui

dapper chasm
#

For actual fucks sake

potent pivot
dapper chasm
#

Give me the ui respect I deserve

potent pivot
#

looooooooool

#

i saw one of the videos, with the voiceover

dapper chasm
#

I didn't have to go that hard, I did it for you

#

For the people

potent pivot
#

it looked quite nice

dapper chasm
#

Thanks, you have taste

potent pivot
#

but was all WAs right?

dapper chasm
#

Eh, 80%

surreal barn
#

Needs built in winzip player

dapper chasm
#

That used to be a thing, you know

wintry dew
#

I know

dapper chasm
#

It had a dancing bear

#

Anyway, I'm going to go start the kid's night routine, but you guys need to work on your hatred

potent pivot
#

i'd just recommend getting up to date on the addons n WAs people are using

#

can help a lot when you're not super familiar with everyone's current abilities

dapper chasm
#

Yeah, I made a list somewhere above

wintry dew
#

Where you missed shadow blades

surreal barn
#

They are adding universal debuff animations in tww

#

Hopefully they do it for a lot of other things in pvp

potent pivot
#

what we really need is better debuff/buff clarity and less of them in general

surreal barn
#

Yeah so any slow that is more than 30% will have a special slow animation

potent pivot
#

this shit

#

is insane

surreal barn
#

It’s so bad 😂

potent pivot
#

i can't stand it

surreal barn
#

Crept in legion

#

And hasn’t stopped

tribal badger
#

i feel like generic dots should just get their own place

#

for pvp at least

#

because like 80% of those are just dots

#

from various sources

#

actually 90% of those are just little piss dots that dh/dk put up

#

plus the legendary dot

gleaming pawn
#

How shit the default nameplates are is why I use Plater

tribal badger
#

also we shouldnt talk about debuff creep

#

when sin presses DB and kingsbane they put like 14 debuffs on the target

surreal barn
#

It’s mostly buffs on us

#

And 3 on them

#

But that’s our dam yo, we got dots

#

@wintry dew luck potion runs

#

We can just turn those hundreds of greens into bronze 😳

wintry dew
surreal barn
#

You think that still works?

wintry dew
#

Yes but ... You can't really solo farm mobs and reset

#

Since you're at their level

surreal barn
#

It was in moshugun vaults, that’s what I did back then

wintry dew
#

The stone mobs

surreal barn
#

Ya

wintry dew
#

Or the start of heart of fear

#

Also good

surreal barn
#

I don’t remember the name but I remember the location on the map

wintry dew
#

Me too with the insect mobs?

#

Klaxxis

surreal barn
#

lol I found an old YouTube

#

It won’t work if the luck potions don’t work

wintry dew
#

True

surreal barn
#

It made every mob drop good shit

wintry dew
#

You don't need to theorycraft

#

Give it 2 days and guides will appear on Wowhead

surreal barn
#

I like to do these types of things before they are patched 😆

jolly sierra
#

i cant play dudes

wintry dew
#

Why

jolly sierra
#

internet company made a shutdown

wintry dew
#

Wait what

jolly sierra
#

so im talking from my phone

wintry dew
#

Like legit shutdown or temporary?

jolly sierra
#

the shit shut down suddenly

#

temporary

wintry dew
#

Rip panda

jolly sierra
#

rip

gleaming pawn
stoic spruce
#

My stummy hurt :(

halcyon timber
#

Time to hack the neighbor’s wifi and give them mcdonalds nuggets as payment primo

jolly sierra
#

seems like lol

wintry dew
#

Plot twist: they are the same company

stoic spruce
#

I sure hope that company isn't lethal.

wintry dew
#

Guys

#

i love y'all

dapper chasm
#

I hate you all

#

But constructively

stoic spruce
#

I love yall as well

#

Some more than others

#

I'm not above picking favorites

potent pivot
#

We should be able to filter them somehow or something

halcyon timber
#

I would think a “stacking auras” option would be implemented aT some point. Part of the reason I love elvui

dapper chasm
#

A fellow artist (not UIs though) once said "Art is finished not when you can't add more, but when you can no longer remove anything"

halcyon timber
#

Yeah i love WA just to make custom UI art. Gotta lot of painting projects as I get time. On my to do list for sure.

dapper chasm
#

I just rip artwork from other addons, much faster

#

Not like I'm selling it

#

Unless...

potent pivot
halcyon timber
#

Kek not here for sure

dapper chasm
#

Oh, hey, that's actually me wtf

#

Anyway, I tried sharing my WAs, for FREE may I add

#

But got exactly zero love

stoic spruce
#

I for one like it

#

Default ui

halcyon timber
#

Didn’t see, Im in and out a lot

stoic spruce
#

I need to know every little thing that's on me

potent pivot
#

i think a few people expressed their like of it peepohappy

stoic spruce
stoic spruce
#

I'm sorry

#

Low hanging fruit

#

I had no control

dapper chasm
#

Apologising for a simple mama jab - what happened to this community?

stoic spruce
#

Okay but

dapper chasm
#

We used to be mighty

#

Like your mother

stoic spruce
#

Eridian is special boy

#

Or girl idk

#

I'm sorry about the low hanging fruit, not the mother jab.

dapper chasm
#

We never used to assume gender - we didn't care if you were a boy or girl, we'd make a man out of you

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

By playing outlaw

potent pivot
#

or else

stoic spruce
#

Part of the ship, part of the crew.

potent pivot
dapper chasm
#

That aint toxic, that's life

stoic spruce
#

Or "stop playing sub you freak"

potent pivot
#

nah i don't think gid gud is inherently toxic tbh

dapper chasm
#

To many it is

potent pivot
#

but there's different ways of saying things :dd

gilded gulch
#

my favorite thing to trigger people when you kill them in opener

#

is to just type “?”

#

in say

potent pivot
#

"you probably just need more practice" = "git gud"

stoic spruce
dapper chasm
#

Practice don't mean you get good

stoic spruce
#

I usually say "you awake?"

gilded gulch
#

People are allergic to being told to improve

potent pivot
#

it means the same thing

dapper chasm
#

I usually go with "Sorry, were we dueling? Who won?"

gleaming pawn
potent pivot
#

i've tried coaching

dapper chasm
#

Your FACE is allergic

potent pivot
#

it's not very fun

dapper chasm
#

Gottem

gleaming pawn
#

@jolly sierra remembers how well coaching the uncoachable goes

stoic spruce
#

I love how I prevent the healer from playing the game so they're not healing. So they get flamed and the other dps aren't smart enough to realize it was ME ALL ALONG >:D

dapper chasm
#

I find it better to narrow in on personal weaknesses they have rather than focus on their gameplay

potent pivot
#

i once analyzed someone's vods and sent them an essay pointing and where they made mistakes, where they could improve, etc.

and then they never replied again.

dapper chasm
#

I felt that

#

You're not cool because you play WoW, but we can be friends

gleaming pawn
stoic spruce
potent pivot
gleaming pawn
#

Sorry forgot the kekdog

potent pivot
#

spent like an hr on the coaching, for free too

dapper chasm
#

Let the hatred flow through you

potent pivot
#

so i thought it was weird

dapper chasm
#

Now give me your opinion on plate users

stoic spruce
#

Dk is a cool class

#

Warrior too

#

Ret thematically is cool

#

Hpal my favorite healer

dapper chasm
#

Funny, you use the words "cool" and "class" despite lacking both

stoic spruce
#

One of the specs is literally named Frost

#

Sub brain at it again

dapper chasm
#

The mind of a killer, yes

stoic spruce
#

Brain cell killer sure

dapper chasm
#

Go reroll hunter

stoic spruce
#

Why? Too busy farming them

dapper chasm
#

I think DH must attract top players, every one I met seems strong

#

Must be the new skill class

stoic spruce
#

You would think that

steel scarab
#

Cannot make this shit up

#

What's frustrating about this situation, though, is that warrior gameplay is so brainless (and effective) even up to the 2000s rating level that someone this completely clueless could even reach this bracket

stoic spruce
#

I love an over extending warrior

dapper chasm
#

I dunno, that sounds more like moaning than the toxicity this community requires

stoic spruce
#

Leap charge out of healer los

steel scarab
#

Have you ever tried to get a useful sap off at the start of a match with a warrior on your team?

#

Literally almost impossible

#

Even when you say "hey I'm gonna sap"

dapper chasm
#

You think so? I just step sap, Cs, cs

#

I assume 0 braincells

steel scarab
#

That feels like a waste of step, but fair

dapper chasm
#

Waste? I got the sap

steel scarab
#

Absolutely agree, just

dapper chasm
#

I usually even sprint past the DH invis-eyes shite

steel scarab
#

I guess it depends on the opponents. If there's a scary zug zug maniac on the other team, I like to keep the steps to get away from them

gilded gulch
#

most dhs are bad and dont realize

#

sight into purge

steel scarab
#

Monk, MM hunter, DH, Warrior

gilded gulch
#

is the best way to knock stealths out

dapper chasm
steel scarab
#

It's always very satisfying sapping a DH with spectral sight, but a lot of times I get hit out of stealth as the sap is applied

gilded gulch
#

its get them combat instantly

#

back then things like throw glaive have a travel time

#

so still could get sapped

dapper chasm
#

Yeah, but I'm not sapping the DH here

#

The healer has to pop an instant on DH to go combat too

#

But it's too late

stoic spruce
#

I throw a gouge at them when they hit me with that dollar store hunt

steel scarab
#

I just do it to apply the -damage debuff

#

Usually I can't get to the healer to sap them when a DH is zugging toward me

#

With Spectral Sight on

dapper chasm
#

Is that the invisi-eyes?

steel scarab
#

The dh anti stealth ability

dapper chasm
#

Invisi-eyes....

steel scarab
#

I think it also sees through pillars

#

From what I read when I moused over the buff

gilded gulch
#

spectral sight makes them move slower but also see people like thermal vision

steel scarab
#

Idk I don't really research abilities

dapper chasm
#

I don't read tooltips, I'm out there getting laid

steel scarab
#

I just lose to stuff until I learn to not lose

#

That's why monks still kill me

#

No actual idea what the fuck they're doing

dapper chasm
#

I use generic terms in my head "Shaman Wall" "DH Evasion"

stoic spruce
#

Need to give DK spectral sight

gilded gulch
#

idk i’ve played dh before

steel scarab
#

Actually a miracle I ever broke 2000 rating tbh

gilded gulch
#

and monk when keefer goes were really brutal

#

nowadays monk burst is so telegraphed

steel scarab
#

Can you explain when a monk is dangerous

dapper chasm
#

2.8k

gilded gulch
#

they have keefer’s

steel scarab
#

Also when a fury warrior is dangerous

gilded gulch
#

and sweep

#

back when bonedust was good the real nasty moment was good monks would incap you before bonedusting

#

which still debuffs you but you cant prewall or anything

#

before they send the sweep into go

steel scarab
#

When I fight fury warriors I just want to scream at my monitor

gilded gulch
#

like back when tod was a explode later debuff

#

monks would incap tod

#

then sweep

dapper chasm
steel scarab
#

Can you not use shorthand verbiage

#

I'm too old to understand anything other than fully expressed words

dapper chasm
#

Killing a rogue is impossible unless they're bad/assass

gilded gulch
#

idk fury you see

#

big reck icon

steel scarab
#

I am assassination though lol

gilded gulch
#

you run

dapper chasm
#

Please don't talk to me

steel scarab
#

Ofc I could live forever if I was sub

gilded gulch
#

the real funny way to tilt warriors

#

is to abuse max range

#

on them

dapper chasm
#

58 kiting still works

gilded gulch
#

yeah lol

steel scarab
#

5-8 kiting worked amazing in classic and vanilla

gilded gulch
#

where you’re in melee range of them

steel scarab
#

It does not seem to work in this

gilded gulch
#

and they arent of you

dapper chasm
#

The only thing I stuggle with now is healers

#

It's possible to kill them, but it HAS to be 100-0

steel scarab
#

Yeah you can't let them press a button, otherwise all your stuff is on cd and their health is suddenly full and you have 3 dots on you

#

High impact gameplay

dapper chasm
#

Well, no healer can kill us

#

So there's that

#

Especially if we gried stealth etc

#

Grief*

steel scarab
#

Right but you also cannot kill them without dampening

#

Try that in a battleground lol

dapper chasm
#

Sure you can

#

Yeah, it's my fulltime job to kill the healer in BGs

steel scarab
#

Maybe sub can

dapper chasm
#

You maintain pressure with some low CDs, then when they get cocky or heal someone else, it's party time

steel scarab
#

Assassination vs. healer, equally geared, is just a rot fest that they heal through

dapper chasm
#

Well, sub can 100-0 with all the big boy tools popped

steel scarab
#

In BG

dapper chasm
#

But not into shields or walls

steel scarab
#

Yeah sin cannot do that

#

It needs time for stuff to tick

dapper chasm
#

Don't try and make it sound cool, it's ass not sin

steel scarab
#

🥹

dapper chasm
#

Anyway, my stupid work zoom meeting that ran over by an hour is over - I can stop spamming this channel

dapper chasm
steel scarab
#

Probably that I am old and bad

dapper chasm
#

Yes, also get good

#

But other than that, you're alright

dapper chasm
#

I just lost over 30 points due to a hpala being DC for 2 rounds with me, and then coming back

idle coyote
#

Yo, for sub, the offhand is better the conquest one, or the sparks one? vers/mas weapon I mean

idle coyote
#

Three of them are vers/mas, but the conquest one is higher ilv

wintry dew
#

probably the highest mastery one

dapper chasm
#

Sub uses 2 daggers

idle coyote
dapper chasm
#

You forget Rpvp

I don’t speak dk but since you are familiar, 2hander doom aint looking so great?

halcyon timber
dapper chasm
#

Nah, this was a straight up dc

#

2 rounds straight

#

I just don't get why the game didn't end it after 1

stoic spruce
halcyon timber
#

That’s uncool man

#

Hopefully that gets addressed

dapper chasm
#

Well, everyone reported him

halcyon timber
#

Rider is pretty nuts

dapper chasm
#

Fat load of good that'll do

halcyon timber
#

Yeah then wait 35 min to see it again

#

Lots of sabotage

dapper chasm
#

I've never had anything that bad before

halcyon timber
#

Ive had quite a few series of matches with questionable sheet. Usually involving specific guilds

#

Prob can’t say who though

dapper chasm
#

It's not the end of the world, but it makes it hard to take shuffle seriously

halcyon timber
#

Dunno if that is against the rules

#

Yeah

#

Healers from a specific guild def sabotage

#

“ im not healing you because you’re a rogue “

#

Or rets from a tich guild literally throwing a match refusing to play against harry potter teams (they have done it multiple times)

stoic spruce
dapper chasm
#

Is RMP/RLS/RMD still a thing?

#

How do monks/dhs fit into the rogue picture?

#

Oh, and the furries

jolly sierra
jolly sierra
#

and that was the last thing merek said here

harsh steppe
#

he looks like a cute kitty

halcyon timber
#

He was punchable for sure with that attitude

#

Asked for help , panda did and was often rude

jolly sierra
#

and we got the legendary touch grass video

halcyon timber

Lol dang

I don't fully understand the meme but it seems relevant

#

there are not pvp in remix, right?

waxen meteor
#

I don’t think you can even world pvp

#

I am only lv18 though

#

Btw, it’s not fast at all like advertised

#

I am almost sure it’s slower than doing a regular char

jolly sierra
#

boo hoo

jolly sierra
#

i thought it would be at pirate server speed

waxen meteor
#

I am pretty sure with one half afternoon I will make more than lv18 in retail normal

stoic spruce

Really sucks I can’t bring this character over from remix sooner

jolly sierra
#

I just came here to level a dracthyr

#

And get a chicken backpack

waxen meteor
#

What is chicken backpack poggers

jolly sierra
#

a bagpack w a chicken

#

literal

surreal barn
#

Dracthyr are way more fun than I thought

#

._.

waxen meteor
potent pivot
#

I heard it’s faster to just spam dungeons

#

So there’s that

#

Still slower than retail I’m sure

stoic spruce
#

They probably did it to let people quest more

#

MoP questing is great imo

surreal barn
#

My dracthyr out here with vanish lol

stoic spruce
#

Noooo

#

Stop that lol

#

I want to see what outlaw feels like without tier in pandalands

stoic spruce
#

Chat room

#

Let's bring back pvp montages

#

Dude

#

Like

#

That's gotta bring people to pvp

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

Nah man

#

We just need the modern version of last resort

#

Wait

#

Bingo

halcyon timber
stoic spruce
#

Yeah this song is actually a banger.

#

I don't actually listen to them though. Just this song.

halcyon timber
#

BMTH has some good ones

stoic spruce
#

I've heard they got good stuff

#

Everytime I get into newer bands I keep gravitating to doom metal lol

#

You like Beartooth?

potent pivot
#

That’s what I assume because most people can’t sustain screaming like that forever

halcyon timber
#

Depends, killswitch engage / parkway drive and a lot of other metal bands do still scream with just as much potency and often. Ollie had surgery and said he couldn’t keep doing that a whole ago.

potent pivot
#

It varies from person to person

halcyon timber
#

Agreed

potent pivot
#

But most of them now have vocal coaches that help them learn to do it in a way that doesn’t damage their vocal chords as badly

halcyon timber
#

After the burial and August burns red are some of my favorites too . Filthy af

potent pivot
#

A lot of bands also now rotate their screams between the members, like the lead singer will do a verse, then the guitarist or etc

halcyon timber
#

Yeah kse does thst a lot between jesse and adam

#

Howard mf jones too

potent pivot
#

My buddy showed me a band a couple days ago, where the lead singer will scream so hard he literally starts bleeding on stage

halcyon timber
#

That’s metal af

potent pivot
#

Yeah lmao

#

I think he said the dude was Austrian or something

#

Idr

halcyon timber
#

Harsh vocals from vocal fry vs false chords is a big deal (music coach stuff )

#

Yeah i friggin love the ghost inside too very angry ass band

#

Dudes literally walked away from a plane crash losing a leg and other stuff , went to rehab for a year, and they are touring again

#

Was a plane crash or a train accident, can’t remember correctly

potent pivot
#

Travis barker was in a plane crash wasn’t he

halcyon timber
#

Don’t remember but that fool can play tf out of the drums

#

Him doing drugs and floozys did more damage than the plane

outer sky
#

So I heard theres going to be a reduced damage taken during stuns embellishment?

halcyon timber
outer sky
#

That combined with last year's CC nerfs really do make it seem like they want pvp to just be pve vs players

halcyon timber
#

Well they did say they are focused on battle grounds so team fighting.

#

It will likely even out given the new tree effects to counter “some” of the damage

stoic spruce
#

You know what?

#

I like that

#

It'll be something different and tbh maybe being tuned around arenas was bad for pvp in the long run.

halcyon timber
#

Who knows and if that means a change in philosophy towards tuning and stop “hehe nerf rogue” then that is fine.

#

Should be good, excited to see either way.

stoic spruce
#

Here's an unironic hot take

#

I think when rogues get nerfed, everyone takes it way out of proportion.

halcyon timber
#

There are a lot of other cool embellishments and stuff going on in the files anyway. It will probably honestly even out in some ways.

stoic spruce
#

Get nerfed as if we still aren't A or B tier at worst.

halcyon timber
#

should be fine either way, it's really just the "nooo I should be able to one shot or my class is badddd " nonsense that gives pvp a bad rep.

stoic spruce
#

I think this new tuning philosophy will fix that

#

Whatever stops dk from getting nuked from orbit at the beginning of every season lol

halcyon timber
#

agreed, there are a lot of other sick things on alpha that will add up to be effective.

#

I don't think any class should be nerfed into oblivion just because some garage can dwelling nerds demand it

stoic spruce
#

Oh man

outer sky
#

The only thing that pisses me off about rogue gameplay is just how damn squishy we are. You get our evasion and melee cleave murders us in a half DRd HoJ

stoic spruce
#

I bet tanks will get looked at in pvp too

halcyon timber
#

Yeah the tab target style classes are agitating but /shrug

stoic spruce
#

AoE bodyguard when?

halcyon timber
#

oh tanks will be a bit crazy for sure. Prot got a lot of tools back without getting Dstance penalty

stoic spruce
#

Low key hyped now

halcyon timber
#

In SRbgs flag carriers who are not a tank get a DR while carrying it

stoic spruce
#

Tanks have the coolest pvp talents

halcyon timber
#

All classes gained some type of DR in the new hero trees and ways to make targets take increased damge through various effects. Tuning for pve and pvp started as well in this recent build.

stoic spruce
#

Really?

outer sky
#

how about

#

they keep the CC damage reduction

#

and nerf stun DR to 10 seconds

#

I'd be down for that

stoic spruce
#

Healers have it rough enough

halcyon timber
#

I mean yeah little 5% while demon guy does WWE move and combining the skills cumulitively

#

Same time, more defense and ways to outplay things and stuff have been introduced across the board. A team who is on top of stuff is going to be difficult to take down regardless and a team who is screwing around screaming at their healer will get whooped on as well.

stoic spruce
#

10 second stun DR is asking for less healers

#

Sending a kidney and an asphyxiate and DR is off CD by the time Kidney is off CD 💀

#

Double rogue would pop off

halcyon timber
#

Mage gravity lapse will say bonjour

#

Things will be fine, just people gotta stop meter maid looking at things.

stoic spruce
halcyon timber
#

we will still do our thing and lesser minded individuals will still do their thing. The ever turning wheel continues and is not an issue

stoic spruce
#

Root and a stun

#

Baller

halcyon timber
#

Yeah the gravity lapse thing got turned from a stun into a throw you up in the air and nearby enemies like Kael'thas does in tempest keep (if i remember right) and it is considered a root now

stoic spruce
#

Root and then stun

halcyon timber
#

then you get slammed on the ground and take like 50% spell power in harry potter damage or something like that

stoic spruce
#

Lol

#

Yeah bro 10 second stun dr

#

That's on a 30 second CD lol

halcyon timber
#

you'll still be able to act but not move, healers will still dispel etc. They have to trade blastwave for that too.

stoic spruce
#

Interesting

halcyon timber
#

Yeah the new embellishments are cool and there are quite a few different gems as well with some neat effects

#

The weapon enchants are also pretty slick

stoic spruce
#

Brother I can't wait for Tuesday

halcyon timber
#

Why's that? got some good news?

#

I've been eyeing that BK everyday on my way to work lol

halcyon timber
#

Burger king is pretty damn good honestly

#

chicken fries and a them burgers are pretty solid

stoic spruce
#

The locations are pretty hit or miss but when they hit, they absolutely hit.

halcyon timber
#

and a fatttttt milkshake from cook out

stoic spruce
#

They got rid of the jalapeño burger. Still upset about that.

#

Here's a take

#

Wendy's fries are better than McDonalds

#

Because

#

Not for the taste

halcyon timber
#

salty af fries from wendys

stoic spruce
#

But they don't taste nearly as bad if they get cold

halcyon timber
#

I dig it

#

yeah wendy's cold fries are top shelf

stoic spruce
#

Sometimes the fries get cold on the way home. It happens.

#

But with Wendy's they're good enough to eat

#

Can't do that with McDonald's

halcyon timber
#

I do like some onion rings too

stoic spruce
#

You ever have their fries cold? Yucky

#

Ooo yeah

halcyon timber
#

bk onion rings are filthy af

stoic spruce
#

So true

#

I should get them

#

Eri what should I order

halcyon timber
#

like 4 large onion rings, a fish sandwhich and a dr pepper . That is exactly what I would get atm. Just sounds good.

stoic spruce
#

They have a fish sandwich??

#

Wait you're EU aren't you?

halcyon timber
#

I don't remember if Wendy's still does the Rootbeer floats but those are good too

#

I'm NA

stoic spruce
#

Oh

#

I didn't know BK had fish

halcyon timber
#

Yeah the BK fish sandwhich is solid

stoic spruce
#

Hmmmmm

halcyon timber
#

what's that from wendy's w all teh bacon?

#

baconator or something like that? that mf is solid too

#

junior baconator or some jazz like that is 2 for 3

stoic spruce
#

Baconator

#

Oooo

#

I miss wendys

halcyon timber
#

yeah get like 5 of those an dsome hot ass fries

stoic spruce
#

I'm glad I live in the boonies tbh

halcyon timber
#

prob love sonic shakes the most though

#

strawberry cheesecake shake is ridiculous

stoic spruce
#

I'd be fat af if I lived somewhere urban lol

halcyon timber
#

xD

stoic spruce
#

Bro

#

Have you had their lime slushie?

halcyon timber
#

Yeah and the redbull one

#

LOL

stoic spruce
#

They give you a lot of syrup with the lime?

halcyon timber
#

I ask for it so yeh

stoic spruce
#

Every sip is heartburn but I love it so much lol

halcyon timber
#

I like that joker really tangy

#

satisfying af

stoic spruce
#

They just fuck me up and I don't ask for extra lol

halcyon timber
#

LOL yeah I've got a really bad sweet tooth man

stoic spruce
#

"Oh you want some lime? Here you go motherfucker"

#

I need to try more of their stuff

#

You ever put cream in your sodas?

halcyon timber
#

xD

#

you mean like a float?

#

that a route 44 option they do or something?

#

haven't been to one in a while , where I moved to doesn't have one near by

stoic spruce
#

Well I be a monkeys uncle, BK does have fish.

#

You can just ask for cream in your soda

#

No not ice cream

#

They'd do that too obv

halcyon timber
#

ahhh ok, can't say that I have but would prob try it if it was sugary as heck

#

Nerds slush for sure man ( second photo btm right I think is where I just saw it)

stoic spruce
#

I want to try all of these at least once

halcyon timber
#

Yeah lol I def would do that

#

Sonic burgers ain't bad either, they used to do a $5 Brown bag special or something like that. Dunno if they have since the scamdemic.

stoic spruce
#

BK is hella cheaper than my sonic

outer sky
#

BK fish is gross I had it a few months ago during Lent. The best fastfood fish sandwich is Wendys. but only if you get it piping hot

stoic spruce
#

Interesting

halcyon timber
#

I really dig Chicfila's spicy chicken (although it ain't spicy) but it taste's good and a cookie's and cream milkshake always does proper justice

stoic spruce
#

I've never had chicfila

#

Too far away

#

Had 5 guys once

#

5 guys is alright

outer sky
#

Chick Fil A is glorious. I did a year long study on their chicken sandwiches vs Popeye's based on data from 2019 and updated to 2023

stoic spruce
#

Ahhhh college

outer sky
#

I'm 29 bro I did this to help decide where to go have lunch

halcyon timber
#

We had a 5 guys in my old town. I did dig the bottomless fries approach they had in the giant bags xD

halcyon timber
outer sky
#

The Popeyes chicken sandwich has lost almost half it's thickness in terms of the actual amount of chicken from 2019 till today

#

Chick Fil A has remained the same

halcyon timber
#

gladly eat a lot of chickens for that study

outer sky
#

Now the popeyes tendies though?

#

those are > chick fil a tendies

halcyon timber
#

how about both

#

w some bbq sauce

#

yeh boy

stoic spruce
#

I hear chicfila wasn't good without the sauce

outer sky
#

no its still good its just absolutely GOATed with the sauce. The reason is because they dont put mayo on it

#

I usually do the spicy deluxe and eat half of it with the chick fil a sauce and the other half with their garlic herb ranch

stoic spruce
#

Honey on chicken is slept on

halcyon timber
#

The friggin wraps are solid too

#

the ceaser something something and some large waffle fries yeh boy

outer sky
#

their polynesian sauce is really good too much the sweetness conflicts too much with the heat from the spicy chicken. I prefer it on the regular, non spicy chick fil a chicken. However their ranch acts as a subtle palate cleanser that cools the mouth off subtly while competing with the heat in an epic tug a war of flavor sensations

#

So since I always get the spicy version I dont get the polynesian sause often

#

but if I wasnt a spicy chicken kinda guy I would

halcyon timber
#

makes sense to me, I dig it

stoic spruce
#

Blackened chicken from Popeyes is bis

halcyon timber
#

panda express is also my jam

outer sky
#

One of these days I need to try popeye's wings

stoic spruce
#

There's no way it could even compete with the rest of the menu lol

outer sky
#

the wings?

stoic spruce
#

Yeah

All right boys. After falling to 1750, I'm back to 2112

The hunter discord is dead. Can anyone link me a mouseover macro thatll use an ability on whoever I mouseover but if I'm not moused over anyone it will just use it on myself?

safe turret
#

is this for step or a harm ability only?

#

/cast [@mouseover,exists,harm][]Ability name

#

if its for step remove ,harm

outer sky
#

its for my hunter's pet sac

safe turret
#

then put noharm in place of harm

outer sky
#

I want it on mouseover but i dont want to have to mouseover myself to use it

#

one word?

safe turret
#

yes

#

will cast on friendly mouseover if ther eis one, otherwise just uses the ability which defaults to selfcast

outer sky
#

it doesnt default to self cast

#

if I press it without a macro it makes me select a target

safe turret
#

/cast [@mouseover,exists,noharm][]Roar of Sacrifice

#

is my exact macro on hunter, just pressed it with nothing targeted and used on myself

#

do you not have auto self cast selected

#

options > combat > self cast

#

default is auto I think

outer sky
#

It works

nova wren
# outer sky What do you guys do to quickly set someone at your focus?

I have mouse wheel up and down for arena 1, 2 and a mouse side button for arena 3, if I hold shift these will be focus arena1,2,3. I think its best to have them on mouse because then my keyboard hand will stay free for abilities that I might use just after or before changing target/focus for more fluent gameplay.

#

Also I had some macro or plater setting toggled that turns enemies names to their arena number, so just 1,2,3. This way I dont always have to check from gladius which focus bind or target bind to press to switch to them in a situation where one needs to act fast.

harsh steppe
#

is this guy trolling me? someone said humans wear 2x dps trinkets yesterday here

wintry dew
#

Yeah hyper L there

#

2x DPS trinket = pvp on use and passive trinkets

stoic spruce
#

Hyper L

wintry dew
#

Not PvE shennanigans

#

You obviously want 2 pvp trinkets for the set bonus

harsh steppe
wintry dew
#

Pvp trinkets

stoic spruce
#

You don't need medalion for the bonus

wintry dew
#

You can use whatever combination of trinkets you want for the set bonus

#

But they need to be pvp trinkets

harsh steppe
#

ahhh so i was right? cool

wintry dew
#

No

#

You're wrong

#

You said 2x DPS trinket > bonus

#

That's straight up unthinkable

harsh steppe
#

ahhh so 2x dps trinkets = bonus

stoic spruce
#

Yes

wintry dew
#

Any combination of pvp trinkets = bonus

harsh steppe
#

i meant to say 2x dps trinkets = bonus > medallion & 1 dps trinket?

wintry dew
#

Also not true

harsh steppe
#

hmmm i guess I don't pvp OMEGAKEKW

stoic spruce
#

That isn't exactly false either

wintry dew
#

Humans can use their active "" stun remover ""

#

But it's on a 3min cd

#

Therefore there are some humans using 2x DPS trinkets

#

Which isn't advised

harsh steppe
#

ugh i don't get it 😦

#

oh well ty ❤️

stoic spruce
#

Normally Human DKs use double dps trinkets

#

Because dk has a lot of CC breaks

wintry dew
#

Due to IB

#

Icebound fortitude = stun remover

#

(besides being a Dr)

stoic spruce
#

Sometimes when I'm silly, I send a kidney into IBF just because I can.

wintry dew
#

True and based

#

To show dominance

stoic spruce
#

To show I got CC to spare

wintry dew
stoic spruce
harsh steppe
#

all of it 😦

wintry dew

Hyper...

harsh steppe
#

but it's okay nw

wintry dew
#

Mouse over your trinkets

stoic spruce
#

No I'm w

wintry dew
#

And screenshot the whole thing please

harsh steppe
wintry dew
#

You see the "set: increase blablablá"?

harsh steppe
#

yes

wintry dew
#

You need that in pvp

#

It's crucial

harsh steppe
#

yep ok im w you

stoic spruce
#

Dude

wintry dew
#

You can only have that active if you have 2 pvp trinkets equiped

stoic spruce
#

Have you not been using 2 pvp trinkets?

harsh steppe
#

? i am using 2 pvp trinkets

wintry dew
#

Aight you can have both the burst trinket and medallion, or passive trinket and HP active trinket

#

The combination doesn't really matter

stoic spruce
#

As long as you don't have the auto cc removal. That thing is so troll.

wintry dew
#

When Tarny said "if you're human use double DPS trinket" he aint totally wrong, I did it aswell

#

Because you have a 3min cd stun removal

#

But it isn't optimal

stoic spruce
#

It's also not a good idea for shuffle

#

It's a 2s/3s thing

#

Where you have coordination

wintry dew
#

But non humans using 2x DPS trinket is.... Oof

harsh steppe
#

why would you want the medallion if your human racial can do the same thing?

wintry dew
#

1.5min CD vs 3min stun removal

#

Medallion removes all cc

harsh steppe
#

the medallion is 2m cd?

wintry dew
#

Shorter yes, 1.5 or 2 I'm not sure atm

#

Idk if things changed

next question:
should i put backstab/shadowstrike on the same keybind/slot, the one that changes when i go stealth? i have a bad habit of never using shadowstrike

wintry dew
#

If you can't understand the trinket talk, you should get in more difficult topics

harsh steppe
#

i'll take a yes/no for this one nw

wintry dew
#

You

#

Saying you don't use shadowstrike

#

Killed all my motivation to keep going today

harsh steppe
#

cmon royal gimme one more chance i believe in you

#

believe in the you that believes in me

#

buying a race change today 😦

#

if yall never see me again, it's because i couldn't accept playing as nelf

safe pelican
#

I just walk around SS lobbies slanging CC and sending cheaps on DR to assert my dominance

dapper chasm
wintry dew
dapper chasm
#

I meant I have them on the same key

#

But I know you really shouldn't

harsh steppe
#

ok sweet i'll do that and just make a separate key for shadowstrike

dapper chasm
#

Having it all on one key is too important imo, I have too many binds

wintry dew
#

So you guys go into shadowdance and stealth and use backstab?

dapper chasm
#

I mean, you SHOULD

wintry dew
#

ONCE

dapper chasm
#

ONCE

#

But you can't do it once if you aint got it on the bars

wintry dew
#

WHERE ARE THE REST OF THE SHADOWSTRIKES AT?!

harsh steppe
#

ok nvm i wont combine them then lol

dapper chasm
#

I really think you should

wintry dew
#

The problem stated above

dapper chasm
#

The difference is minor, if non existent

wintry dew
#

Is that he DOESNT use SHADOWSTRIKES

dapper chasm
#

Oh, jesus

#

I see

safe pelican
#

Y’all gotta be trolling

wintry dew
#

I'm the tmog guy and I'm the one getting trolled in the pvp channel

dapper chasm
#

@harsh steppe try this:
#showtooltip
/dismount [mounted]
/stopattack [stance:1]
/cast [stance:1/2/3] Shadowstrike
/startattack [stance:2]
/cast [stance:0] Backstab
/cast [stance:0] !Stealth

#

Will also put you in stealth out of combat, so a double tap will be a stealth-teleport-shadowstrike

#

I can't remember why I made those start and stop attack conditions 12 years ago, but it seems to work just fine

harsh steppe
#

ok tysm

dapper chasm
#

I have loads of macros still saved on the account if you need anything else

#

I tried to maximise binds without limiting myself, being a PvP man in a sea of PvE weaklings

harsh steppe
#

yes i need the nelf restealth one if you have that

#

taking the leap today

dapper chasm
#

No, I play Belf and get to remove pain sup and bop

harsh steppe
#

ah ok aha

#

and PI 😉

wintry dew
#

Hyper you're playing at 1k mmr, taking the leap to nelf won't change absolutely nothing

#

You should improve your bases gameplay as a player

harsh steppe
#

no

dapper chasm
#

Here is a macro to help you out:
#showtooltip
/stopattack [stance:1/3]
/targetenemy [noharm][dead][stance:1/3]
/cast [stance:0/2] Eviscerate
/cast [stance:1/2/3] Pick Pocket
/cast [stance:1/3] Sap
/cleartarget [stance:1/3]
/cast [stance:0] !Stealth

It's a spammable sap macro in stealth and vanish, Evis during other times, it also puts you in stealth out of combat

wintry dew
#

Your final form, if you continue like this, is below 1k mmr

dapper chasm
#

Replace your evis bind with that and it will free up some keys

#

It still allows for things like vanish-sap, or normal evis during dance or subterfuge

wintry dew
dapper chasm
#

Oh, and I totally forgot

#

It's also a spamable pickpocket bind

#

God, old me thought of everything

#

When you're grinding boxes or something, I aint your daddy

harsh steppe
#

oh nice! buriedtreasure

#

doing insane in the membrane achievement for the 2nd time lol
so i can use that

#

With those two binds, nothing can stop you

wintry dew
#

@jolly sierra help

#

This channel is making me crazy

harsh steppe
#

royal don't be jealous of our skills

dapper chasm
#

I will now share my ultimate macro of efficiency

#

#showtooltip
/dismount [mounted]
/cancelaura Vanish
/cancelaura Shadow Dance
/cast [target=mouseover,dead] Loot-A-Rang; Stealth

#

It's a stealth bind that uses looterang when mousing over a corpse

wintry dew
dapper chasm
#

It saves me SECONDS

#

I can't remember, I'll be honest

wintry dew
#

It's efficient vs mages

harsh steppe
#

#

If you have a pala on your team

dapper chasm
#

You aint got the rang, bro?

dapper chasm
wintry dew
#

Do you play shuffle?

#

If yes, you should

dapper chasm
#

The rang is basically a buff to your loot distance

You can click on corpses on the moon and still loot them with the rang

#

All the kids are ranging

Alright fair enough

You rang, Royal?
