for rogue/mage 2s as assass, should i run wound poison AND hemotoxin? or juts one
Assassination wants 2pc Chest/legs? Right?
does sub use 4set in pvp?
yes
up to you
less mastery if you go 4set
just wanna get a feel for what everyone is doing
but the cons i've no idea
less mastery is the con i'd think haha
does the damage from 4 set make up for it though?
I'm playing Sin in BGs and it has to be the most frustrating PvP experience I've had in WoW
just 90% of my time in CC or waddling around
dying nonstop cause I'm fucking glass
Yeah, I loved playing Sub. Probably gonna give that a go, when I'm less tilted.
I'm an Arcane main. I just picked my Rogue up again and saw Sub wasn't really being played, and that everyone seemed to go Sin
Pikaboo and Nahj even left it for Outlaw
but I hate Outlaw
They don't play bgs
Fair
Outlaw's damage profile isnt too hot for what rogues are best doing in BGs
Which is sniping off targets and nodes
I'm gonna have to try Sub again, tomorrow. I'm way to tilted to keep playing today
Tbh isn't too bad either
If you're trying to brawl 1v9 you're gonna have a bad time no matter the spec
Assa
More like 3v3 for the size of the fight
give or take
y'know BG nodes
but I just cant get over how fucking squishy I am as assa
I mean I'm glass as Arcane too, but I'm super slippery to make up for it.
3v3 you should be fine
Evasion and dismantle cloak and kidney are all relatively short cds
But in general assa is the squishiest of the 3 specs and there's not much you can do about it
Since it doesn't have cdr
I tried it out and now I know why
- It literally doesn't do shit either way
You have a job as sub, and neither option has a compelling enough pro/con. You're aiming for consistency in PvP. The 4set has extra combo points during a time you probably already have shadow blades up, but you crit more often. The mastery means that when you do crit, it matters more. Slightly more.
I thought, ok, the 4set seems to edge out on consistency. Tried it, and it just feels the same
What items are best to craft for assa?
ive seen a lot of people use the engi helm but idk what tinker they put into it, is it the breath of neltharion?
Tinker doesn’t work in PvP.
oh so you just take engi googles for the stats
They are calling these buffs? What. 15 percent backstab and rupture damage. Uhhh. What
Am I missing something
Just coming to say. Day 2 of assassin rogue..... i suck ass so badly still lmfao. My damage is so low, my survivability is meh, my cc is okay.
All the questions i have asked and all the answers you have all provided have been very helpful though. So ty.
What spec you guys recomend, I swich between all 3 on pve so im familiar with all of them, but for pvp got no idea
Honestly I would get good at sub in 2s first then assa for 3s. I personally find outlaw too flamboyant. Assa is easy to counter and when sub is strong it dominates. I just think being good at sub will translate to the other specs. It's the most meticulous and has small windows where you need to understand your combos. Outlaw and assa kinda just pump. Sub you play like a rogue, so it's good to develop that play style. And again, when sub is strong it's OP. In the right hands
@upper oak
Don’t sweat it man, rogue is difficult contrary to misinformation. Keep having fun and the rest will follow.
You find what you love and stick to that. Ive been a Subtlety rogue since I started in late tbc. Idc about anything else through the good or bad times. Start shuffling around and then this comparison nonsense kicks up when we have different tools and styles. Find your style man.
any1 knows why meld doesnt put me into stealth for imp garrote?
#showtooltip Shadowmeld
/stopattack
/stopattack
/cast [combat] Shadowmeld
/cast [nocombat] !Stealth
literally on a target dummy and it doesnt work
doesnt trigger subterfuge
got it
Is shadowmeld off the GCD?
That's pretty strong, does it have invincibility frames?

teldrassil burning was right
sin rogue feels ridic in pvp
full greens. 0 cr. put in a 1950 lobby
4-2
no tier either lol
i follow garrosh teachings
It's a slippery slope, but you brought a bathing suit
Me? I'm not a disgusting bigot myself, but you do you
This season starting MMR is 1800~
that is a dirty trick u know?
"have mercy"
"i'm family!"
So I talked to the npc to "mercenary" as horde in queues. I got alliance every time still
Ez game XD
Gz
That function was turned off a while ago no?
if you're queuing as a merc, you will only get put into alliance queues
Thank you ❤️
How lomg have you been playing rogue? Do you use any guides or specific addoms/weakauras?
I see you typing
I'm not debating
Also
Buff poison knife for assa
I want my fantasy to be a bladeslinger
That's so cool
Climb before pally buffs
I don’t think it will make them much better but you’ll see more in lobbies
bring back deadly throw w interrupt
Crackshot but poison knife
since combat rogue vanilla lol. just a few weak auras and addons elv ui setup
that is crazy lol. having fun with this sin right now. cant wait for tier
yeah 2nd lobby was prot paladins for solo....
So if I'm alliance I'll never play with horde?
not unless the horde somehow gets flipped from being the dominant faction
you can only merc to the alliance because their queues are longer and more people are needed
does gouge cancel out bleeds for sin?
no, your bleeds will break your gouge
ight so just using it as an interupt then lol
in shuffle or in some BG situations you may or may not have bleeds on the healer anyway because of CC or them just playing back
so you usually can use gouge as CC just fine, except in 1v1 situations
i was getting yelled at by a mage to not gouge healer lmao
like who tf else am i gonna use it on
it DRs their sheep, that's why
in that case, you'd want to setup a kill window by using Kidney on the healer and cheap shot on your kill target
so the mage can sheep the healer off your kidney
Do I use dance at the end of kingsbane
To get the maximum hit with nightstalker
Or just send it with dance KB
Honestly you can time it to overlap kidney for the last ticks of bleeds and follow with a gouge
Gouge still good for chains
no you dance at the start
What % of my damage should CT be in a typical 3s match?
Deathmark>Shiv/tea>Dance/Kingsbane
outlaw feeling worse than sub in RSS rn?
atleast sub i can cc the fuck out of everyone
We need a fucking petition to make it so that the dots added by deathmark aren't removed by BOP
That is so unbelievably fucking brainlessly stupid
"Here's your 2 minute cooldown ability that requires a lot of setup, oh btw, a class just counters all of it in a gcd"
"Oh and btw, one of the classes with that ability is ret, the most overplayed fucking dps in the game"
"Oh and btw, god help you if you're against ret/holy/x"
Don't press deathmark
Like a fucking boss
I have 28 bones rn
But I don't have enough bronze to buy then yet
Although every bronze gain I get now will be towards garrosh items
You wont believe this, but it counters my Shadowdance burst too
Those paladins have gone too far
Good thing yours is on a ~30 second cd
I know it's "controversial" to say a church went too far, but...
i would need 12 more bones and im done
You can still hit another target
@dapper chasm also, they can't counter your burst if you have your target trapped in a Duel
So this is just a wild take
What if it's the paladin in duel?
Now all you've done is exposed your small-minded thinking to the class
I'm so happy I got to skip this expansion twice
For 2 weeks of work I can now buy garrosh tusks
A lot of good tmog
And Brag 2 new titles
For 2 weeks of work I get a holiday to somewhere hot
And get to avoid it, because fuck hot places
I've been thinking about this deeply and have come to a resounding conclusion -
True men, be they boys or girls, are PvP players
None of this dragon shite, no daily dungeons, no whatever "mythics" are
Just pure man-on-man action
True man waste their time in queus

Nice
That's the real Gameplay

That's the issue I have with shuffle. By the time the queue pops, I'm already invested in something else lol
should i use fanofknives or mutilate in SS as aoe assa spec ?
ofc mutilate when not trying to remove CC, but when facing 1/2 targets ?
True
My guild is 90% pve and RP enyojers
2 people play only for 1800 and transmog
Im only one who play for playing

anyone else here play a lot of alts and notice how us rogues are like weirdly squishy? I spammed some SS on my rogue and on my monk, both 528 ilvl both obv wearing leather and as a monk I can stay in the fight a lot more easily whereas on my rogue I just get fucking trucked
Why is that
like every second 1/3rd of my health is gone
I mean I'm feinting with elusiveness and straight dying with BM trinket up
Supposedly assass is "OP" but I'm dying to passive damage outside of CDs
Yeah, I feel like I'm constantly getting cucked as assa
I'm just constantly eating instant cast CCs or waddling around
Gonna try Sub again in a minute.
I can't be assed w/ this shit
Like as soon as I come out of stealth (in BGs) I just eat nonstop CC chains and disarms after those
I'd have more fun watching some stranger plow my wife.
That being said, the few times I actually had a healer healing me, I had fun.
but solo play, i just cant do it
bgs dont matter
and as rogue I basically have a perma 20% wall
All I play is BGs
the only bgs that could matter are rbgs but those are also less impactful
idk how people are playing with cheat death. It doesnt even work half the time and without feint spam I'd be dead in the opener every game
Nah its druid
I main Arcane
a hunter can't solo cap a base
how the F does that even mean anything
well the objective is to take those bases
also no one risks a solo cap
and if you hold them long enough
there are two ppl that cap/counter cap
you eventually win the game
if 1 person is sitting a base you can send a druid to cap and eventually he will get it after 1 clone DR unless someone peels
super powerful
ofc it will happen
plus they can run flags decently
theyre just good on every map
ye and the pets are nowhere
and the hunter has no traps or scatter or feign
he can't scatter while he's roared or bashed
druid is trolling if he's casting clone in your un CCd face
and u cant roar if he isnt guarding uner the flag
its literally impossible
u got no time to cap
give it a rest
balance with a rogue together
ild argue its the best ye
no class is better
coz there is no solo class capping this time around
sub rogue+anything can cap on anyone
you just stun lock them and they have to trinket it and when they do blind>gouge
the 2nd class doesnt even matter
they just have to press cap
im not talking solo
im talking paired with a rogue though
so we arent talking the same
thats why i said read a bit
Why would the 2nd class matter if the rogue is doing all the CC
Druids click the flag better?
Even if they both have trinket?
Yeah, so I just did a BG as Subtlety. That was much better.
I had actual agency and didn't scream at my monitor.
Just gonna stick to Subtlety.
You're supposed to play sub/assass based on your role in the RBG
if you're teamfighting, play assass. If you're base sitting, play sub
Sub is arguably the worst team fight dps spec in the game
assass is really good though
when in doubt go assass though because assass can base sit better than sub can team fight
Oh, I mean I'm a filthy casual. I only run randoms by myself.
It's my favorite (only thing I do) thing in WoW
Why not play rated?
Its way more fun
being in disc with 9 other people talking strats
I go for Rival from time to time for the xmogs, but I just don't like the sweat.
I did play some RBGs with my guild early DF S2, but we had bad turnout a few weeks in and didn't go from there
My guild mostly just do M+ and Raids (I don't) nowadays
Where can I find an updated Assassination PvP guide (I know I'm a gluten for punishment). WoWHead still has Sanguine Blades listed as an active ability.
I'm looking for like opener rotations and such, not just itemization/talents like Murlok
I just checked the pins, didn't see anything there, either.
Thanks, mate.
If I'm running this build (I got it from Murlok). What should my cookie-cutter bread and butter opener be?
https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/rogue/assassination/DAOFVVRVBEUVZGJAQCFENVUVVVUJQBEiUUBR
I wonder if Shade ever gets annoyed everytime his guides get posted and someone pings him lol
Loved his outlaw guides from SL
I don't mind
3 solo shuffles in a row someone has left mid game
Pretty much everytime someones goes like "i need to learn assa", shadenox is mentioned
♥
was reading some stuff on reddit about bots being able to avoid reports that way
doubt its true but wanted to testify
Okay, I take it back. Still super squishy, but I'm actually kinda enjoying Sin now
and when I'm actually getting decent heals, it's super fun
yup and if u think about it,u can always make the report afterwards.Doesnt need to be in that specific match,doesnt make much sense
Hey my buddy is starting to play ret, and I can either play feral with him or sub rogue. Just curious if there are any rogues in here that play with a ret and if scoobydoo cleave is still competitive with the current meta/ladder
scooby doo in general is in a good spot rn
should try it
competitive idk,depends,was always into the team is above the comp but on the high end comp matters as well
Don't say shadenox 3 times in the mirror
Not financial advice (but you might gain MMR)
grats! I am 25k away 😮
so close also ! get it
why are so many assa rogues using seal of fileal duty? how does it even proc?
I dont get where the fire dmg comes from
That's half my history of kills
And I thought I played a lot of BGs...
You don’t need to proc the on use effect for it to be worth it
Just upgrade it to 535 and enjoy the extra mastery
i thought helm enchant was disabled in pvp
Does the trinket of adaptation not work in arena?
I just raceswapped to human for fun and it... does not seem to trigger?
what were you waiting for it to trigger on?
its my end
Having some haste is good
He asked about the seal of fileal duty
I don't understand why Will to Survive triggers when I don't press it
i went in LFR at 492 and absolutely wrecked the damage lol
makes me wanna keep pluggin away at the ilvl and see how nasty it can get
Since this game does an absolutely dogshit job of explaining anything
Can someone explain how the human racial interacts with the Adaptation thing
Never used it with adaptation tbh, just used it with the normal pvp trink
Oh adaptation thing
It puts it on a 1.5 min cd so you can essentially get out of stuns 30 seconds faster
Anyway human racial has a share CD of 90 second with pvp trinket
I think it’s just either manual or automatic one
Human adv is probably not about the 30 seconds earlier. It’s more about you can have both manual and passive primary stat trinket on
Outside of rogue I agree
Yeah in rogue it’s not really a big adv.
Human adv was big in old days when pve trinket was a thing
I’d use the hell out of two dps trinks
Now those trinkets do not make a day and night difference
Like having a random trigger primary stat trinket (and haste as main stat) isn’t adding too much
Probably not better than manual orc burst
the problem is
2 dps trinkets is never possible since they made the set bonus on the 2 pvp trinkets irreplaceable
so it's just like
It’s kinda exact the reasons why I went SP
I picked human priest basically for lore, then I realize human racial cannot replace trinket for healer at all it’s even a nerf to myself
So …
I just swapped to SP pfff
Right but it shares a cooldown with the regular trinket
Yeah so you don’t use regular trinket
You use double primary stat pvp trinket
That’s what human allows you to do
It’s basically for casters nowadays
Lots of lock/sp/mage as human
double primary stat trinket?
like the one that gives you hp on use?
ok, that could be somewhat useful
That could be an option too
Normally you use the haste with random primary stat trigger
Along with the crit manual primary stat boost trinket (the one we use)
For casters they like to use the honor one, to have double haste stat
so they don't use adaptation at all?
I’ve only ever seen outlaw run adaptation at high mmr and it was when they were practically immortal
Most cases no
adaptation in most contexts is a bait trinket
It’s so garbage
u know how is player quality when the guy have it equipped
XD
If you really want to have another anti cc, you can try undead like me
Share CD only 30 sec
On fear so works pretty well against war/priest/lock
Did they nerf the shield 535 ring?
The proc has been nerfed long time. You take it for 535 ilvl with loads of mastery on it
Rogue losing the dodge from veil of midnight pretty much sealed its fate
How so?
guys how hunters can dispell magic?
Tranq shot
bullshit
alterac valley,the wod epic bg works as well(might actually be the most optimal to farm HKs)
my human rogue was created with the purpose of farming all bg achievements back in the day,ended up doing battlemaster/bloodthirsty and 2.2 rbgs then swapped to my horde rogue for rated pvp
now im playing anything but rogue

Ty
Yeah 😂
Just read it, now. Fucking savage. Lol.
We are honestly in good hands with Whispyr/Fuu/guy
(assa/sub/OL)
Now we just need blizzard to acknowledge what they say
whispyr article 🔥
If there’s ever “the Calculator” title Fuu should rock it
blasting hard
Rogue department as soon as they read the article:
- call Bob, the guy who developed this;
- but he's just an intern!
- should have worked harder.
was hoping to get it done before TWW not looking as likely now
can do it easily man
ild say like idk 10days 2 weeks farming
maybe
dont rly have to no life it either
true, gotta lock it in
Assa is so god damn hard man.. as soon as people train you. You actually lose ALL pressure
I really need to learn this shit
Also I hate playing with a mage in solo shuffle who keeps polymorphing the targets you bleed. Like I apply bleeds he polymorphs
Yeah playing with a mage is doubly awful. You apply full bleeds, he rips them off with polymorph. He applies polymorph, you immediately break it with Fan of Knives
It's truly awful. And God forbid you try to talk about a plan pregame, you get like 6 seconds for discussion and almost nobody responds anyway
Ditto for playing against a lobby with two paladins or a survival hunter. You just can't apply pressure when there are multiple instant cast gcds that cancel all your bleeds at once
As mage i hate assa rogue who bleed all target
And i cant poly

HaHA
Hard disagree here
One of the few specs that can still pump while being trained
Even if you are disarmed during dance your dots are being amped up
Not if ur trained by a ret bopping himself with freedom
Oh I mean yeah you’re gonna need to swap for 10 secs
Hpal does kinda stink though
But if you keep them dotted through their sacs they exhaust their defensives pretty fast
It's hard to pump when one dps is kiting you and the other is a melee chasing you around
Example: frost mage + monk
Is probably my nightmare scenario
I would WAY rather fight 2 melee
Or 2 ranged
We go mage in this battle
Cleave monk for a potential kill but mage is who you kinda want locked
Right, absolutely agreed, but meanwhile the monk is just beating the ever loving shit out of you
I actually find for frost you absolutely need Death from above, but the bizarre cast animation and it requiring CP makes it so awkward to use
DFA smacks in a few comps
When it follows their blink or alter time it’s very satisfying
Are monks really getting double jump in TWW??
Yes
Do we have a TWW hero tree that looks good/ interesting for PvP?
doesnt matter if test stuff is constantly leaning to changes
No they all suck
so wait for prepatch
Imagine if we got a talent choice node where one option was an effective 8% dps increase and the other option was a triple jump. What would you guys pick and explain why you chose the triple jump
Does any1 know what the meta for sub rogue pvp talents is rn?
do yall go deadly poison or wound?
wound
bomb/duel and 3rd can be situational
phys cloak/disarm can be useful, thiefs bargain a default for many
Ngl after seeing some of these other hero classes the rogue trees look dogshit
They 1000% are. With little hope they will make them much if any better by TWW release. If they leave Rogue till last to get done, it will be the 3rd expansion in a row and cementing the clear pattern and narrative they’ve been cooking
imagine a hunter having a quick cd healing which can be casted on allies too lol
U mean 1: Either Bomb or duel 2:Thiefs bargain default for cds and 3: Cloak or disarm?
@radiant glenOr equip both bomb and duel in 3s?
both bomb and duel, then ur last one swaps usually
u should be banned bruh
imagine you are waiting half an hour for having a guy sitting for a tantrum
and then wasting that half an hour and expecting to find another one wasting even more time
just awful
Then we make headlines on reddit "ROGUES ARE SCUM"
Its not like they are wrong... But for the wrong reasons
yeah whatever nerf rogues 💯
can any1 help me understand why you would use a /cancelaura subterfuge / cast shadowdance macro? I dont understand why you have to remove subterfuge if it doesnt interact with dance.
You can't cast meld if you're in shadowdance
like you can't stealth if you're in shadowdance
ok thx for the help
Someone have Stoneform WA? (with the symbols of explosive shot and dots to dispell with it) I think ive seen a Fireblood WA but i cant find it anymore
U cant cancelaura subterfuge
So no idea what that macro is doin
Pretty sure you can
At least, you could 12 years ago
U cant
Trust me it's part of the reason one of outlaws bugs is so frustrating in the open world
back to 1750 
outlaw has a bug where restealthing during subterfuge disables basically everything u get from stealth
its very fun
if ur stealth ever gets broken u need to sit and wait for subterfuge to end before restealthing
I wouldn't know - I play a man's spec
assassination?
A straight man
hmm
cant think of any
do u mean the weeb favorite spec?
the naruto shadow jutsu spec?

yea im not a fan of ninjas
I have watched like... 10 animes
rookie numbers
Long short of being a weeb
gotta pump those up to be a true sub enjoyer
ive watched
heidi, the twins in school one, cowboy bebop and like 20 episodes of one piece
Save it for the first date, Ace
oh and one football romcom one which wasnt captain tsubasa
With lines like that, I bet you just sit the ladies down and slide them home
one piece most recent stuff is pretty good
it definitly
was hard to keep up with tho
I did used to watch that, but stopped after he got some stupid gear thing
i look at the characters (especially nami) and am just immediately turned off
it was one of those animes for awhile
I bet you masturbate to hentai porn
ok well the artist is definitly not beating the allegations of only drawing one type of women character
but thats a well known trope of OP

but yea it got a little lost in the middle for me and i dropped it for years
hell almost a decade
I just want to make one thing clear - Jacking it to hentai is just jacking it to a dude's hand motions. As a LGTBQIA+ ally, I don't mind, just be honest with yourselves
then i picked back up with more recent stuff and its pretty solid
seems less gay then watching straight porn (basically just watching a DUDE bang a chick?)
pretty gross man
All porn is cuckhold porn if you think about it
and if ur in a chair watching it
I stopped at about age 18

Honestly, all joking aside, porn is a mind-rotter
oh shuffle popped
We're talking about jacking off here and you're linking screens from some game
As I was saying, sheesh
You don't need porn to jack off
idk deathstalker sub looks kinda cracked
design wise its just a mess (bad)
could be tuned to be strong of course but
people arent talking about tuning rn
tuning is like, mid to late beta stuff
feedback rn is all around design
and the design for it is very bad 
The design should be very human
if u wanna to i can give u interesting research about what happens when u coom 21+ times a month
if u do that ur chance to get prostate cancer reduces by a lot
Pretty sure that's a nomral number in a relationship
so it doesnt have anything wrong according to research lol
Sex with my wife is great but she always says "There's nothing wrong with a small penis" at the end
I kinda wish she didn't have one at all tbh
unless u are genghis khan i dont think the number u go w ur wife is enough
care for ur prostate dude
We have 2 kids, fuck your sex-life expectations
We giggle at the thought of sleeping longer
I just wanted to know if anyone has a WA for racial dispells 


Race swapped to human
Dropped from 2200 to 2000
Grinded my way back to 2330
God damn it is harder without Shadowmeld
I LIKE A CHALLENGE
maybe can endure a little more
Playing without meld… mucho harder
the true chad move is to not being NE or orc
so u play in hard mode at ur own preferences
being more satisfied w urself lol
That’s most definitely why I play Belf, trust
as should be, playing for urself
tfw healer dies first 3 rounds so 2nd 3 rounds he just sits afk in base
report the shit out him
keep going...
god
dammit
Tell me so i can tell you not to
Hard to feel like a chad when yer dead
They need to let you pick any racial you want for rated
And for world shit sure keep it to the race
garrosh was a chad and died
being true to his shit
even when tortured lol
he never had the choice to be an orc
we do
XD
the thing is is depressing to have ppl assume by default u are playing both NE or sub
so they tell u what to do cuz is the status quo
u then say "dude im assa" or "cant u see im a panda?" and then say "go NE then lol, imagine play assa"
ppl is very ran by both meta or streamers so their mindset just narrows down
It is
fucking shadow dance removal
fucking shadow dance removal

is there a way to see further back in a death log on details?
I AM SO GODDAMN CLOSE
NOW WATCH AS MY NEXT LOBBY IS FROST MAGE FROST MAGE FROST MAGE
and I lose 70 points in a ret DH firemage lobby because I can't fucking shadowmeld the firemage casts.

dh nerf annoucement came too late, i haven't played enough game
98 games total reached 2300+ cr now but i don't think i can make it tonight
did 30 games this week, too late :(((
Nerf for the fire ring will be nice
Good for everyone not DH lol
tbh DH will have a very hard time from next week
It really proc’d a lot
I’m always surprised how they let these things slip by so long
i did a 237k dps game, ring did only 2.2%
anyway, overall ring is like 2-3% of DH dmg
Nice so that’s what two hunts
Rain from above is doing crazy dmg now
Yeh I know
So roughly the same as everyone else
I might start to use that even against casters
I love it when they use that vs my hunter
haha not against makrsman
this season is too annoying
i spent too much time to farm pve for pvp gear
when i am done finally, it's nerfed
i literally finished dh ring yesterday
and want to push a bit
Hey, so, what's the deal with Slice and Dice as an Assassination Rogue?
Is there a place I'm using it, in the opener? Am I just using it randomly, when I have extra CPs? Or do I just not bother with it, in PvP at all?
Right now, I've been opening with Cheap Shot -> Garrote -> Shiv -> Rupture -> Mut/Envenom....
right now since we are spending a lot of CPs on CT, it's comparatively low priority as finisher
I think you may miss slice and dice buff quite a bit in game
Word. Thank you.
the goal imo is to keep it up with an envenom at some point, when possible
lower prio at the very beginning of a match typically, but you shouldn't need to waste the combo points on it if you try to keep it up with envenom
that just kinda depends on where you're at with your bleeds, if you can envenom at the time or not etc
finally, fucking shit
Anyone have an addon that can add DR tracking to the side of my enemy player nameplates?
I just realized Diminish was discontinued
Was trying to see if Plater nameplates could do it, but I'm having technical issues with the addon.
Ideally, it'd be an icon to the left of the nameplate, growing out to the left.
Nevermind, I think I found what I want in the form of a Weakaura:
https://wago.io/7Dx6xkd4k
Teea seems to have died a gruesome death and disappeared
Bummer. At least their weakaura still seems to work okay.
Here is an updated version with fixed events lists
<3
Should get rid of the event error
It's the same thing with just a small edit
I use a bug filter so I didnt see those errors
You'll see it in the actual weakauras list
Oh
A small yellow exclamation mark
ohhh yeah
that, I just assumed that was because it needed full access to the logs
and was thus unavoidable
=P


It's really a pristine one
Man, you just saved my ass. I went to add your WA, and it said it was outdated (my WA addon). Which was odd, cause CurseForge said I had no updates.
Turns out I forgot to update my CurseForge client. Now all of my addons are updating.
I was just thinking people stopped publishing addon updates since we were end of expansion era and the API hadn't changed much.
The API actually shat the bed a few times recently
Ohh wait don't tell me, it was related to Private Auras?
I think the kids call it "Amber Hearding"
hahaha
is it worth using BtEyes outside of stealth buff?
only if you are certain there won't be a stealth window within approxiametly the next 20s
really situational
if vanish is on a longer CD then bte (so 45s) and dance is awhile off u can yea
but its a pretty minor thing overall. its fine to ignore, even in pve its super minor optimization
Few more wins brother, you will get it!!
in s1 i had 3000+...
was fun times though
every week meta changing
I thought of the perfect pvp reward to get the entire community more active than you’ve ever seen it
It blows gladiator mounts away
flag of ownership
Close but no
Lower interest rates on home mortgages
The higher you get the lower your interest rate
LOOOOL
I wore a level 1 cape from BFA into an arena last night
I hate this fucking game lol
lol someone on twitch is arguing with his viewers that wow still another 20 years of life in it
yeah
i think some of wow pvp players are too crazy about 'skill' over 'entertainment that everyone can enjoy'
like if it's supppppppper skill capped, it makes the game better
i miss when sub was just fat backstabs
and you dance every 1min no cdr and got fat ambushes
you mean cata
might not be as mechanically hard to play as now but it was quite satisfying
wrath too
or when cold blood mutilate would chunk half your hp bar
i think mop was when you really had too many stacking modifiers and backstab did negative damage
i remember trying to kill my afk warrior friend with backstab only and it wouldnt even go through second wind
Rogue v Rogue duels against the ever amazing Azliaris. Duels filmed pre-shattering.
Song - Sore Winner by There For Tomorrow.
- Merc
well original second wind on warrior was pretty busted as well
when they just made it a % hp heal when low hp
fun times this was back when australian realms were proper segregated
that stuff was op as hellllllllll
mercader is the reason i love ruthless elite
Being able to play 16+ hours a day, having friends, life was good
life was amazing yes
@wintry dew heh this one is cool too

Without a doubt, the best gameplay I've ever had the privilege o...
Do they still use bread legs in China lol
When I first read about that I died 😂
Second wind is back on warrior in tww. They auto activate it when low on life. (And some other hooks)
im sure it will get nerfed
cause the devs in current retail played MOP and learnt from thier mistakes

A whole lotta that unless it concerns us somehow. The nerf cycle endures due to propaganda
Have you gotten good yet?
expansion releases -> sub is omega broken due to low hp -> nerfed 50x ->every1 gets full geared and sub still remains nerfed
tale as old as time


if you get a bad roll , do you delay ur burst on outlaw?
The terminology is "burst or edge" but I'll let someone else answer that
there is no burst on outlaw
Just edge
fuck man they pushed maintenance another 2 hours
i didnt know so many people know mercader
whats the lore behind this, i didnt play bfa
big true
he got invited to do some duels pretty sure as a standin for rogue
since no one else showed
dueling lost its luster post WOD tbh
i think in legion was when they started sharding elwyn/durotar heavily and the entire dueling scene just died
@stoic spruce there’s a discord app icon just for you
wdym
how do you guys counter a ret
i cannot beat them no matter what i do
even an undergeared one. they are so broken
You box them instead of brawling them
Kite their cds and pick your shots when you can
Agreed to an extent, make them chase . 20 yards be damned .
Also depends on terrain and such
Shadow step to a teammate and just stop their damage a lot etc
oh i mean 1v1
They bop / sac you swap etc .
Oh yeah out in the open field. You use whatever cover and concealment you can. Gouge / blind avenging wrath etc
Pre feint hoj etc
Small things add up and just be aa disruptive as possible. Watching for when they aggressively bop and stuff. Just depends
Elusiveness shaves 20% off
If not talented into it, i would gouge/ dismantle depending on what is going on
Take a swig of vial on the run and burn out whatever cd they are trying to shove then get right back in and be a pain in the behind
gotcha
Sometimes pre blackjacking them is good too. Just depends on what they decide to do.
XD
1on1 you can beat ret
Anyone tried arena today? Can boomies die now?? did the nerfs work??
yep killed one 3 times in a ss lol
but they were never the problem
ret only one gave me troubles
rets kinda just fall over once you get their bubble
I guess theyre a bit tankier if you're not playing with a mage, shaman, or priest
because then you dont have BoP purge
Against ret takes more than yourself
We cannot push bubble out by ourselves in solo, it takes DPS teammate and healer to help
It's like if you can't make him bubble in first 30 seconds, more than likely we will not get him bubble till super late game
you can usually force it with deathmark/kingsbane
healer CCd for like 5 seconds
youll get something
ive seen so many rets in SS die to sudden demise without bubbling
are you playing assass?
I think the strat with assass is to rot the team out and force CDs with passive pressure
eventually heals OOMs or someone falls over
its hard to sustain that level of healing for several minutes
ive played games where ive forced bubble without any CDs just because the rets whole team is struggling to stay above 20%
although ive been maining WW monk for this season and it's so easy compared to rogue
we are simply not talking about same topic
you can apply same scenario against any class by dotting whole opponent team and make them not able to maintain HP, and thefore force their defensive cd
I just don't feel it has anything to do with 'dealing with ret'
just because it works on everyone doesn't mean it doesn't also deal with rets just fine
A good ret defense very well, and you cannot easily force bubble out.
I'd take a ret over a dragon any day
the fact that they can clear bleeds so often
its such a counter
and what i was saying is that normally from first 30 seconds, you already can tell if he is good enough (and if your teammate is good enough)
Dragons and survival hunters
And rets. All absolutely cancer for our class
Still, I'd play against a ret over the other 2
hello, i have a question for sub, should i be using dark bew+ sepsis or rotten goremaw? or something else?
Either works, pick your style and roll with it friend 🙂
Completely terrible
james can u do me a favor please?
What’s terrible man? Rough climb ?
Survival having that anti bleed talent
It only fucks us lol
@jolly sierra what's that?
You can also check Murlok.io, it tells you pretty much everything you need to know if you know how to interpret data
pleasepleaseplease
dont complain too much dude, im really growing very tired, thank you
What lol
I think it's pretty fair to complain about stuff in the game that just is ridiculously not balanced. And a spec having a pvp specific talent that just fucks one specific spec and does nothing against all the other specs is, let's be honest, pretty fucking stupid
To be fair, that's mostly what you do xD
I like most of your inputs
you do have pvp experience
But from that to complaining about stuff that we can't do nothing about goes a long road
Don't devs read this channel?
Yeah its agitating for sure man
Also, as hyperbole, let's recall demon hunters from last season, how ridiculously OP they were. I complained a lot. They weren't fun to play against and people who were objectively worse than me were crushing me
That is something really fair to complain about
yeah but no need to complain way too much, we cant solve anything
cmon james, most of ur comments are just some kind of complain
i barely remember some conversation beyond that
I shouldn't have to play like I have a 300 IQ to beat someone who's just smashing their keyboard
Balance the game
Imagine having raz/shadenox/blake come here and just UJADKSLGBADSLGBA about stuff they don't like
ye
the last time ive seen a r1 complaining, for good reasons
was raz for end DF s1
when he said rog was dead cuz ret god ascended status in that moment
a moment where arguably ret was in its zenith
never ever reached before
The majority of the playerbase isn't r1 and the game being balanced around r1 isn't super healthy
Because it's balancing a game mode around like 30 people
Instead of the thousands that pvp
fair, so u wanna talk about that
wanna know what happened when blizz heard in forums the 1k2 people?
they nerfed ALL the CCs in S2
EVERYTHING
and solved nothing
PvP is a niche gamemode, lets keep that in mind. I believe Blizzard manpower to actually work on PvP must be small
Hot take: I actually think nerfing cc in pvp is/was kind of good for the game
it wasnt, we are in the same issue still
Blind 5 seconds, breaks with dmg. Warrior fear still 6 seconds
crowd control isnt the problem here
is how people manages to counter that incoming crowd control
When the crowd control is instant cast
how's sub after reset? still ass?
That's very hard to react to
u can mostly predict when they are about to CC
Same with damage
when they are bursting
I can't recall which R1 it was that said that PvP right now it just M+ in arena
Probably whazz
do more dmg, win more games
Damage feels good when it ramps up and you know it's coming. Paladin wings for example. Shadow dance. It's super obvious animation, sfx
for shadowlands s1 i recall i needed to precast a defensive for rogue mage because else i would die
and it worked
Marksman having long cast times
Define long
It does not feel good to have no dmg done to you and then be in Shadowy duel and just instantly die
Now every CC is a micro CC and healers still can't play the game because they didn't touch DRs
Feels fine, just as before. The slight bump up is appreciated. Its all about the talents augmenting styles. Rupture is pretty nice. It was wise of them to do those small jumps instead of something silly
Or demonology pets or BM pets just going nuts on you
and here we go again
That doesn't feel good. That isn't good gameplay
cmon
You should be able to react to visual and sfx cues with defensive cooldown use, not just randomly die to overwhelming incoming dmg
I do understand the sentiment, it is fair and i hate playing against pet classes aswell,
I treat the fel guard like a warrior



kinda funny saw those people sitting at base at rbg
