lol

potent pivot
#

i wish i had a cat that could stun people for me

waxen meteor
#

what alt class should we do for 11.0

#

will there be any orange gear?

hexed pollen
#

first 200K finally

steel scarab
#

Quick question! Anyone know how to make it so Goremaw's Bite would show up on my Weakauras?

potent pivot
#

it's not automatically showing up when you're talented into it?

steel scarab
#

Okay I wouldn't even know where to start with that lol. So spec out of Goremaw's Bite, got it

#

Negative, it does not

potent pivot
#

have you reinstalled the WA pack

#

try deleting the WA pack and reinstalling it

#

might be on an old version of it or something

steel scarab
#

It says it's up to date, does it work for you?

#

I'm thinking, if I had to guess, that because Goremaw (I believe) is considered useless in PvE, the PvE people who who made the add on never bothered to add it to the script

#

Don't actually know for sure and I could be incorrect

potent pivot
#

well afenar's hasn't been updated in like a year

#

yeah no one has made a gormaw's WA period

steel scarab
#

Oh, wow

potent pivot
steel scarab
#

I really like the ability but every time I tried to use it in the past, I often miss it because it's maddening to track my cooldowns via WA but also constantly be checking my toolbars for cooldowns that it doesn't track, like Goremaw

potent pivot
#

luxthos' pack tracks it

#

i would recommend not using WA packs like that in pvp

#

if i'm being real

steel scarab
#

I am 100% in agreement

#

But I'm about to do some mythics

potent pivot
#

does sub use goremaw's in pve

steel scarab
#

I already got Keystone Hero this season and am just messing around with RL friends

#

No, it's like a Mythic 3

#

I just wanted to have fun, but also know when my cds are ready

potent pivot
#

oh then just untalent it or something kekdog

steel scarab
#

LOL oof

potent pivot
#

if you don't wanna use a diff WA pack

steel scarab
#

Is Luxthos pretty nice?

potent pivot
#

i've used it before, it's decent

#

free WA packs are free WA packs

steel scarab
#

By some absolute miracle, I managed to hit 2400 in SS with this cursed weakaura pack

potent pivot
#

if you're not using something like AtrocityUI or NaowhUI

steel scarab
#

I did disable it a few times, and it's good because it forces you to focus more on what's happening and less on rotation

#

but

potent pivot
#

it takes too much focus away from whats going on

steel scarab
#

I don't have a good bleed tracker that puts icons over peoples' heads and I kept missing bleed maintenance

potent pivot
#

then get a good bleed tracker

#

there's tons of diff ways to do em

#

Plater, KUI, etc

steel scarab
#

I will have to install one of those

#

I just hate the starting out aspect of having 30000 things tracked that you don't want

#

It's so painful

sharp sierra
#

damn 3 hour queue at 1800. you'd think more people would be playing end of season

potent pivot
#

that's the m+ talents btw

potent pivot
#

people aiming to get the r1 achievements play a lot the last week

sharp sierra
#

im at 3hr 7 min in queue now lol

potent pivot
#

1.8k range people are done for a while now

steel scarab
#

I'll give that a try Trickz, thanks

#

There's a few options, I guess truly none of them use Goremaw

potent pivot
#

omnibar/omnicd

steel scarab
#

I did not have Gladius either lmao

potent pivot
#

and some WAs to warn you about enemy offensive CDs

steel scarab
#

I did not have that either

potent pivot
#

i think Mes makes a big pack of warning WAs

steel scarab
#

I had omnicd and this cursed weakaura set

#

And I just rawdogged it like an absolute psychopath

potent pivot
steel scarab
#

What does this one do?

potent pivot
#

that one has a bunch of auras for enemy CDs

steel scarab
#

Oh, that is really neat. God, this probably would have helped a lot

potent pivot
#

look at "included auras"

#

let's you know when enemy is casting those things

steel scarab
#

So it basically notifies you of scary things

potent pivot
#

ye

#

and if you don't like any of them you can just delete the auras you don't like

steel scarab
#

That is a massive advantage, I feel like

#

If that's gonna be in the game they should just make it baseline

#

You're at such a disadvantage if you're not using such a thing, I feel

potent pivot
#

goodluck with that kekdog

steel scarab
#

I know, Blizz doesn't care

#

cry

potent pivot
#

we can't even get CC DRs added to the base UI

steel scarab
#

Which is also terrible!

potent pivot
#

a lot of top pvpers never used to use WAs

#

they'd only play with base ui usually

#

but that's because blizzard didn't allow addons at blizzcon n shit

#

now they allow them so everyone uses em

steel scarab
#

Very chaotic

#

Naughty Blizzard

outer sky
#

is there an addon that will auto-ignore list someone if they mess up your stun DR in arena

#

I am so fucking sick of losing games to that

potent pivot
#

i feel like at some point you gotta become numb to that shit in shuffle

jolly sierra
outer sky
#

DHs, monks, shamans, DKs, warrs

jolly sierra
#

fucking shockwave

outer sky
#

yeah and theyre usually the most unimpactful stuns

#

I get it if youre about to die and you just have to stun someone

#

I get it if youre stunning off of one of my stuns

#

I get it if you're stunning the healer to set up a CC chain

#

but these people are just randomly stunning everyone

#

often DRd too

elfin fulcrum
#

Im new to both rogue and arena starting for my first time this season and im having difficulty knowing when to go for a restealth depending on the spec im playing. Do you just go for a restealth after blowing your go and when everyones on dr? Ive only been playing 2's so far.

outer sky
#

unless youre playing outlaw

#

then you only run if youre in danger

elfin fulcrum
#

Okay great, are there any good rules of thumb for rogue if im starting out? Would I be able to post vods in here for some critique if thats okay?

outer sky
#

yeah sure

potent pivot
grave basin
#

Every lobby I'm like "I'm gonna sap X, let me do the stuns"

Jk first global the lock on my team shadowfury their whole team

grave basin

I feel like it’s warriors, you say let me sap X first then let me stun, war agrees, gates open and warriors rides in on mount, heroic leaps, stuns all 3

outer sky
#

they all do it

outer sky
#

Its when things start to get damp

#

or we have a clear win condition

#

thats when it irks m

#

me*

#

i just played a match where the enemy team was disc/arms/surv and we got to a point where the hunter had no trinket or Roar, warr had no intervene and no shout, disc had no dome, and I had every single cooldown with bomb and the hunter was half hp

#

i go for the kidney

#

split second before i press it

#

my hpriest chastises him

#

i just dont understand

#

like why man

#

by the time i got stun DR back warr had intervene again

#

like you couldnt have scripted a better set up than we just just before that chastise

sick wasp
# outer sky often DRd too

DH is the most cringe class in wow history period
Randomly DRs stuns that ruin goes just coz ''i have to press all my buttons mentality''

#

im having names noted so when i lose a shuffle im opening my warmode and flying around the map

#

every noted name i find i murder

#

no second thoughts

#

i just burry the mfkers

ive already got them on my druid, does that mean i cant on my rogue?

we were in the same guild couple of times,even raided together back in nyalotha

oh

interesting

sick wasp

fun part is that he destroyed me on every pathetic push ive made everytime to go like 2.7+

#

ive never won against him

#

i should hate him but i cant

#

he is a very nice guy

jolly sierra
#

OOF

#

i think is the kind of guy which will encourage u to win against him

sick wasp
#

yeah

jolly sierra
#

and is just waiting for it

sick wasp
#

every single time

#

its a person that fights to make eveyrone better

he is that good of a person

jolly sierra

that is the kind of person pvp needs

grave basin
#

Most streamers are insanely toxic

#

They don't say anything in game but on stream they flame non stop

#

Ie qweener/lontar

#

Ofc the king is crusader

#

But atleast crusader has the balls to flame you in game

#

Got his alt in my lobby and he called me worst hunter NA, respect it

potent pivot
#

me coming for you next season

grave basin
#

Where's the SV hunter

potent pivot
#

already leveled

grave basin
#

Based and rerollpilled

potent pivot

i usually keep a couple rogues, warr and hunter leveled

#

might add dk next season as well idk yet

grave basin
#

Gonna keep rogus/Magus then the other two probably arms and feral

wintry dew

Although feral having the same playstyle as SL , idk man

# sick wasp kasu is a well known shttalker

It's weird to me to shit talk the people who beat you. Like, while I wouldn't do it myself, i can understand raging at someone who's on your team and throws the game. But raging at the people who beat you implies that they should be playing to lose just because they see your name. That's weird to me like obviously the other team is going to play to win just like you are. If anything raging at them might just give them satisfaction because it suggests you feel outplayed by them.

#

Unless they take advantage of an exploit like a DK gripping someone under the map so they DC in an RBG

#

But even still, that's on blizzard for not fixing that shit like they should or properly punishing people who take advantage of it

grave basin
#

Imagine sinking your whole life into a game and playing at the blizzcon level to lose to a no name rogue

#

That's probably his mentality

#

He also claims to be above you mechanically, while you only won because you pved him into the ground

#

Whispering to shit talk is really cringe though, especially with the ignore at the end

outer sky
#

That's the funny part, his comp counters ours

#

He was mm/disc

#

We were assa/rsham

#

We literally can't win unless we play better than them

outer sky
grave basin
#

Expecting good sportsmanship in gaming is sadly not Gonna happen

#

People are way too comfortable saying things on the keyboard they wouldn't dare say to your face

#

I'm sure the 30yr dad gamer in his dinosaur onesie and beer gut is gonna fuq my mom

outer sky
#

Jk I don't turn 30 until next month

#

And it's a penguin onesie

sick wasp
#

its just a bad personality trait or something

#

i cba tbh

#

through the years with arenas and pvp in general i was very toxic early on,then ive learned thats its a weakness not something u can benefit from

#

so ive left it behind

#

if i lose to someone i welcome it and try to learn from it

#

hello fellow rogue pplayers when season is going to end

#

2 weeks?

wintry dew
#

Seems to be that way

grave basin

Season ends when prepatch hits

the man collects rank 1s

grave basin
#

question, do i get to be a gamba rogue at lvl 70

#

or does it start at 71

sick wasp
#

71

#

all hero trees at 71

outer sky
#

whats looking like our best tree for arena?

grave basin
#

i think it's more of a

#

whats the least worst tree angle

sick wasp
#

rogue is undertuned now but deathstalker makes more sense

#

u wont have the uptime to coinflip in arena anyway

#

else ild say trickster

#

ild say prolly sub deathstalker or sin deathstalker

#

outlaw is just ass

grave basin
#

trickster is annoying though

#

the coup proc can cause you to gap your stun

outer sky
#

I wish theyd revert deathmark back to vendetta. That was so much better of a CD. I wonder why they felt the need to change it

grave basin
#

and as outlaw , messes with your crackshot window

#

so it's more like, if youre playing sub, go with the deathstalker cause it does absolutely nothing

#

if youre playing outlaw, go with fatebound cause it does absolutely nothing

sick wasp
#

i dont think fatebound can be a thing in arena idk

outer sky
#

welp

#

I think i've reached my cealing

#

I cant get much higher than this

#

every game is 4-2, 3-3, or 2-4

steel scarab
#

Amazing job!!

wintry dew
outer sky
#

This hunter lol

#

i wish there was an achievement between Legend and rank 1

#

because I'm not getting r1

#

and I already got Legend

#

so theres no real reason to keep queueing

sick wasp
#

but in all u did a gr8 season

outer sky
#

Do we know what melee is currently looking best for TWW arena?

#

level 1-70 boosts are only 175k right now

#

kinda wanna buy one

waxen meteor
#

not sure if it's reliable

#

someone in DH pvp channel shared

outer sky
#

So WW monk best melee

wintry dew
#

anyone can do lists

#

And we're still in beta, so i wouldnt trust it

waxen meteor
#

yeah

#

too early to tell

outer sky
#

they put rogues as A tier? Ive read we're currently way undertuned

waxen meteor
#

1 or 2 weeks before real season starts can tell more

#

now whatever good can be tuned to hell

surreal barn
#

Rogues can’t go lower than A tier if an S+ tier exists

#

We sit there and stun for them

plucky escarp
#

The DK Warrior Mafia made that tier lists

potent pivot
#

they don't even list specs just classes OMEGAKEKW

outer sky
#

I just hope we still have a one shot

#

I'm gunna miss my big kingsbanes

jolly sierra
#

would be funny to have a build like in BFA with gushing wounds

#

would be more sustained but still consistent

# sick wasp ild say prolly sub deathstalker or sin deathstalker

I just tried on beta (dummy) Deathstalker Assa, with Death from Above. You build the stacks for empowered guaranteed envenom crit taht does 60% more damage. You shiv to 7 combo points, death from above for 2.2 million crit on Envenom, followed by cold blood kingsbane of 800k (against 100% hp dummy), imagine Zoldyk buffed 2.2 to 35%, guaranteed kingsbane crit and then you proc the deathstalker Fatal Intent proc, into Sudden Demise

#

Theoretically, that is going to be insane

sick field
#

hi QQ, what poison should i be running in pvp with crippling? is wound needed with the shiv talents? i have been running deadly poison. thanks!

jolly sierra
#

wound

potent pivot
steel scarab
#

@untold remnant can't wait for them to change all the ability modifiers to .25% in pvp combat!

untold remnant
#

xd

#

Just for rogue tho @steel scarab

#

All other classes 2.5% modifier

steel scarab
#

Of course lmao

copper torrent
#

I've tried to ask in multiple discord channels but can't get a solid answer. If I can't get full conquest gear before the 23rd am I going to still be able to earn conquest and buy the s4 gear once the pre patch hits? I don't want to be stuck with low honor ilvl in pre patch

potent pivot
#

seems like in the past you could

#

it won't matter much either way

copper torrent
#

Thank you!

potent pivot
#

once TWW launches that gear will be irrelevant

untold remnant
grave basin
#

Have you tried that in a skirm or shuffle

#

Feels like it's not gonna be feasible to wait for the cap stone to proc then send your dam in arena

halcyon timber
#

You just hit any 3 finishers and it is ready to roll

copper torrent
potent pivot
#

thought that maybe you were trying to get fully geared before TWW launch so i just wanted to add that just in case

copper torrent
#

So I'm just wondering if I can still buy the conquest gear that is sold now. Or if it goes away for the prepatch. I guess I better get grinding anyway lol. It's like what 7 days. I bet I can get full conq gear that fast?

copper torrent
potent pivot
#

i'm honestly not 100% sure if you can buy gear or not during prepatch, that's why i linked that forum post about a past prepatch

#

i didn't really play through DF prepatch and i've barely played DF s4 kekdog just waiting for TWW

nova viper
#

Yoooo

#

Big question

#

How fast gear up alts? Just playing blitz and bg?

potent pivot
#

with conq gear?

nova viper
#

Its 515 now

potent pivot
#

then yeah

copper torrent
#

Honor gear is like an hour or two

potent pivot
#

i usually just bg for honor

copper torrent
#

Like no problem.

potent pivot
#

i've tried skirms in the past and it was always kinda jank

nova viper
#

Imo Blizzard should make account honor

copper torrent
#

Do BG blitz. You can get conquest and bythe time you are full honor you can buy 1-2 pieces of conq

nova viper
potent pivot
copper torrent
#

Plus the BG blitz quests help and you can get the box that give you 2 craft able pieces

nova viper
jolly sierra

emmmmm, is doing dailies

idk how good of a marketing strategy this is

jolly sierra
#

sounds like a very huge gaslighting

potent pivot
#

i'm 100% positive you could get glad if you had proper team mates like you said there

jolly sierra
#

i think so too

#

is teamwork basically

#

unless those guys are like 10-20 in all the region and all have a very dirty business in the brackets

potent pivot
#

got the main mog i wanted from remix kekdog

jolly sierra
#

were u burnt alongside the tree?

#

lol

#

(gz btw)

potent pivot
#

i might keep farming for some other stuff but idk yet

#

need to play more FF before TWW launches

potent pivot
#

the ones that boost i mean

jolly sierra
#

u know how to spot a bad dealer?

potent pivot
#

that's how they make $ so they don't play with new people

jolly sierra
#

they will make u force to buy their shit

potent pivot
#

the amount of acc selling, boosting, piloting and win trading going on

#

is insane

jolly sierra
#

dude the wintrading is absurd

#

in SS

potent pivot
#

like these people get banned and lose their r1 spots every season

#

but they just make new accounts

#

it's wild lmfao

jolly sierra
#

god what a waste

potent pivot
#

all of them are trying to off load their DF glad extra accounts rn

#

because of the character transfer between accounts being discontinued on the 23rd

outer sky
#

This guy lays it on real thick

jolly sierra
#

i still feel sad cuz i cant give my brother back his char

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

in my acc

potent pivot
#

you can get glad in LFG

#

that's the main way you'll end up meeting people that'll want to keep playing with you

#

etc

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

so they won't let it transfer?

jolly sierra
#

no, cuz it break tos

potent pivot
#

have you tried tho

jolly sierra
#

yes

potent pivot
#

usually between family it's ok

jolly sierra
#

no for blizzard

#

they almost banned me for acc sharing according to context

potent pivot
#

but i've always wondered how people sell characters if their names aren't the same as the person they're selling it to

jolly sierra
#

cuz we shared the game to play across chars

potent pivot
#

sharing accounts with family is allowed

jolly sierra
#

idk

potent pivot
#

it's always been allowed afaik

#

so that's weird

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

that's weird

jolly sierra
#

i rlly wanted to give him his char back with a CM token to learn all the arsenal from wod

potent pivot
#

i doubt it's truly enforcable tbh

jolly sierra
#

it is

#

i tried once

#

with a GM

potent pivot
#

"how would they know?"

#

you just don't tell them lmao

jolly sierra
#

dude that is dumb tbh

#

if u will transfer the char

#

they will know the name

potent pivot
#

i don't mean for the transferring

jolly sierra
#

and ask for documents

potent pivot
#

just sharing in general

jolly sierra
#

ah in that case sure lol

#

but in the other one

potent pivot
#

yeah idk i've never tried to transfer chars across accounts

jolly sierra
#

i think is safe in this pricks case cuz they will share the same name across all their accs

#

so they wont have any issues running away from bans till july 23th

potent pivot
#

you can change the first name freely (i think) idk i'm not going to actually try

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

ye i think that's for last name

#

it wouldn't let me touch the last name box at all kekdog

jolly sierra
#

maybe if he would still be minor would be a case

#

now we both are 25+ lol

Just lose

#

Had the same thing happen with my mage yestd, a full boosted rdru with full honor and 424 wep joined and got smashed

#

Every round lasted 5 seconds, felt kinda bad for the guy

#

But then again, honor is so easy to get imagine coming into shuff with a 424 wep

potent pivot
#

really depends on the person's exp too

outer sky
#

why the fuck is frost mage bursting 200k dps without CDs

grave basin
#

Pad with frozen orb and ice lance with splitting ice

#

And enhanced blizzard

outer sky
#

pad?

#

How can you pad on the enemy team

#

the objective is to kill them

grave basin
#

Frost mage only does that kinda dam with like uh dk or bm

#

Blizzard and frozen orb whole arena

outer sky
#

one just did it to me, a fury warr, and a disc priest

grave basin
#

Frost mage doesn't really have impactful cd

#

It just constantly shits out dam

#

But you kinda have to frost bomb shatter into ray and glacial to do anything

#

If not you're just doing some piss 100k ice lances that does nothing

outer sky
#

And why didnt my cheat death do anything here

#

pennance hit for the same amount it hit before cheat proc'd

#

where's my 85% wall

grave basin
#

The real question you should ask is

#

Why didn't it proc at 10%

#

It proced when the damage of that penance was alrdy in the air

#

Aka 0% hp

untold remnant
#

Cheat death is horrible ability

#

It bugs 50% of the time

outer sky
#

or at least its supposed to

#

not at a certain % hp

#

but yeah I should have been at 7% after it proc'd

grave basin
#

The amount of times I've heard rogue streamers say I'm dying through cheat is definitely more than the amount of times it's saved someone

#

Hearing bicmex saying wow cheat death actually working in the 0.001% it procs is kinda funny

outer sky
#

Ok I figured out why cheat is so sketchy

#

"Fatal attacks instead reduce you to 7% of your maximum health. For 3 sec afterward, you take 85% reduced damage. Cannot trigger more often than once per 6 min."

#

If you're already below 7% hp when you take fatal damage it doesn't heal you back up to 7%

#

"instead reduce you to"

#

you cant be reduced to a number greater than what you already have

#

So if you're at 1% and take fatal damage itll proc your cheat but youll stay at 1%

grave basin
#
Wowhead

Fatal damage instead brings you to 35% health and then burns you for 28% of your maximum health over 6 sec.While burning, movement slowing effects are suppressed and your movement speed is increased by 150%.This effect cannot occur more than once every 5 min.

#

Instead brings you

#

Funny how that works

By definition of lethal damage you will be below 7%

#

Unless you mean cheat will only work if you're getting one big hit above 7%

potent pivot
grave basin
#

From what threshold

#

Because from the deathlog it clearly didn't proc at 7%

potent pivot
#

so what he's saying he thinks is happening, is that if you receive that lethal hit from already below 7%, it won't increase your health to 7% because it's wording specifies reduce

potent pivot
#

that's not how it works

#

it doesn't matter what % your health is at

grave basin
#

If you take lethal damage you're alrdy at 0%

#

So how does that work

potent pivot
#

ok check it out:

#

if you for example are at 10% which is 100k health, if someone hits you with a spell that hits 150k, that is lethal damage.

if you are at 5% which is 50k health, if someone hits you with a spell that hits 20k, that is not lethal damage

#

cheat death is basically just supposed to negate that lethal damage instance

#

then instead of letting your health hit 0, it reduces you to 7% instead

grave basin
#

sounds kinda ass

potent pivot
#

in my experience it works more often than fails

grave basin
#

why not just have a cauterize mechanic but fix our hp to 10%

potent pivot
#

even just last night i watched nessper proc a few times and he only died through once

grave basin
#

then it will never fail

potent pivot
#

because it's an old ass ability and probably has wonky ass code

in my experience cheat death doesnt works for example if an ability has simultaneous damage in different windows like glacial pike and icicles

if the ability does fatal damage in that way then cheat death will be bypassed

he's gonna run war games, i assume to test classes/specs for skillcapped

yes he makes guides

bro eye of the storm bg blitz brings the worst out of me, fuck

losing current tier set and the animation lock on coup is disgusting

and baseline nerf on ar

and no acro

and no dance

potent pivot
#

losing dance/acro aren't as big a deal as people make them out to be

idle root
#

idk, felt pretty bad to play without acro

potent pivot
#

new subt+vanish charge will give us a similar playstyle to having dance

#

losing acro just means no more hitting through some pillars and you have to get closer to target

#

it sucks for cleaving

grave basin
#

idk, felt pretty bad especially as assa

potent pivot
#

sub barely cleaves so slightly less affected

#

for assa if using IC i think your cleaved bleeds might have a little extra range? idr

grave basin
#

in pvp i dont think it's as "bad" cause our baseline kit is so good

potent pivot

new acro gives us 10% move speed ye?

yup

that leech talent they added is hilarious

it's a placeholder for when the intern gets to the next pass at rogue talents

also, copium for tonight's notes

should be new build today

steel scarab
#

Losing Acro is fucking aids

#

Losing Dance is fine

#

Oh look, a universally-loved talent that slightly changes the playstyle for the better, helps latency ridden players, and is taken in all content!

.....Let's remove that

potent pivot
#

problem is the difference between melee classes

steel scarab
#

Can't have decent rogues not standing in the 20000 pools of shit mythics and raids drop on the floor

Only the best of the best can avoid those pools of shit

potent pivot

rogue was fine before acro

steel scarab
#

This is a pve change

#

They don't care about pvp at all

#

But this is damaging to pvp

potent pivot
#

one could argue having it was damaging to pvp

#

let's be real

steel scarab
#

I will be fine if they give us Acrobatic Strikes as a pvp talent

grave basin
#

ngl Ele looks INSANELY fun on the beta

potent pivot
#

people are unhappy about losing it, because they had it

#

we were fine before we had it, in all content

steel scarab
#

Because it felt good to play with, and now playing without it feels awful, yes. You could say the same about Sprint having a 5 minute cooldown and stealth having a 10 second cooldown in vanilla

#

Because those things were objectively awful

grave basin
#

id be fine with losing acro if all kicks were baseline 8yards

potent pivot
#

i mean i agree it felt nice having it

grave basin
#

that's like the only thing i care about

potent pivot
#

but i don't think it's the worst decision to remove it

steel scarab
#

It's not, if they bring back rogues being incredibly deadly when we have melee uptime

#

Instead of basically ignorable

potent pivot
#

you want such an intrinsic mechanic of the game to be the same across the board

#

if you were a melee without inc melee range for all of DF while a couple classes had it, you would've felt pretty shit the whole exp

steel scarab
#

Not if the classes were intrinsically different. Warrior has consistent sustained damage but can be kited. Monk has basically inescapable melee damage but is only scary during burst windows

grave basin
#

nerfing fun always feels bad

#

it's like taking away chrono shift from arcane

#

which im pretty sure theyre gonna give back cause theyre whining pretty hard about it rn

steel scarab
#

Rogue is basically a more-kiteable monk with more stuns and weaker burst capability

#

If they're gonna make us even MORE kiteable, they sure as shit better make us more lethal or we're just worse monks

outer sky
# steel scarab Rogue is basically a more-kiteable monk with more stuns and weaker burst capabil...

I have both rogue and WW monk above 2400 and I disagree that rogue is more kitable. The thing with monk is, they have to manually apply their slow and its on the GCD which is really annoying, and you can overshoot your rolls and miss melee range of your target. The thing that keeps them from being kited most of the time is their tigers palm dash which dashes you to your target from 10 yards away but it costs 50 energy which is a ton for a monk and when you get to the target you have to slow them on global and then tiger's palm again for another 50 energy to keep connecting at which point you're too energy starved to even do much. Plus they're losing that tiger's palm dash in TWW anyway and their flying serpent kick is having its CD increased by 50%. I've found Its easier to not get kited on my rogue than it is on my monk provided I use my steps wisely.

potent pivot
#

we're also getting CDR on step

steel scarab
#

I've never played monk, but

#

Have you considered that it might seem easier to not get kited on your rogue simply because people are less scared of the burst damage of a rogue than they are of the burst damage of a monk, and thus, they spend more effort kiting the latter class, and thus it gives you the perception monk is easier to kite?

#

The number of times that I, as a newish pvp player, died within 2 seconds from nearly full HP to a monk is exponentially higher than the number of times I died to a rogue in that fashion. And actually, more than the way I've died to any class, except maybe MM hunter

#

But at least with MM hunter there's usually a bit of a cast time involved. Even if you can't reach the hunter to stop it, you at least see it coming. As a new player against monk you are literally just bewildered

grave basin
#

Monk is exponentially more notable

#

Kitable

#

Since you have to connect to slow

#

In a lot of match ups you're just a victim spec getting micro slowed and you wanna alt f4

Yeah I mean obviously Monk healers are great for us because they have to be in melee range, which means we get to cleave

I wasn't talking about those, I was referring to WW Monks

But it's true, I don't play monk, so I could be wrong

Symbolic victory

As it had good interaction with the guaranteed crit max cp envenom

#

Form the capstone talent

potent pivot
#

can give some consolation damage if DM is dispelled kekdog as long as you get the nature buff in that situation

outer sky
#

and Kingsbane

#

but you'll likely be using kingsbane within within deathmark

potent pivot
outer sky
potent pivot
outer sky
#

does CT count as an "attack against a marked target"?

potent pivot
#

not sure i haven't tested but i would assume yes

potent pivot
untold remnant
#

But you need to wait for deathmark to end. It could have niche use when you have a lot of evokers/survival/dwarfs running around dispelling ur bleeds

#

So you get the 10% nature dam for 30 sec

potent pivot
#

our current pvp build doesn't use any of the other nature stuff in the tree

#

never know next season tho

untold remnant
#

Otherwise, it's just guaranteed 10% on the 60% empowered envenom

outer sky
#

What would we take here?

#

I feel like its hard to maintain rupture on all 3 targets reliably enough to get full value out of the bottom one

potent pivot
#

I’m just looking at it like this: it’s a 30 sec window vs 1 spell

outer sky
#

obv in 2s we take the top one

#

yeah true I guess itll depend how how envenom and kingsbane are tuned

potent pivot
#

If your DM gets dispelled on your go you’d still have the 10% on Kb and envenoms

jolly sierra
#

hmm

#

guys can we start w theorycrafting w week 0 in retail tww?

#

like we did w shadow dance?

#

i think everything is subject to changes so better not to prepare and discuss unfinished stuff yet

potent pivot

right now it really depends on bug fixes

so many things are bugged if they go live in this state then things can change whenever fixes come

still super sketch. my cheat proc'd at one point

I leave the pillar for 2 seconds to get a stun and if i get rooted>void torrented I'm already at like 10%

jolly sierra

cheat is very picky in procs

#

xddd

outer sky

basically the way we have to play against splay is run to the pillar, and restealth. Even if you still have dots taking out you just get the restealth for subterfuge then step silence/stun, bleed for a few seconds and get back to the pillar to do it again

Every ensemble is unique if you get them from remix because you can buy EVERY leather set and use it. As you showed earlier, you got the druid set and you'll be able to use it on your rogue!
But if i had to prioritize the bronze... I'd say:

  • All leather sets (that you obviously enjoy) from LFR/Normal/Hc/Mythic vendors;
  • The exclusive mounts (if you care about those);
  • Trading post recolours (i got them all, literally all, i think its good price);
  • Rare world boss mounts (again, if you care about mounts);
  • Other armor type transmogs. I per example got some of the paladin and DK sets to use them on warrior.

To be fair I do think that I prefeint insanely well and as a result played Elusivness most of the expansion, but in the end it's not that great (right now) because yes, pre feinting would save you sometimes, but the game is made so that most of the lethal damage overkills you by a lot so the prefeint is often not enough unless something else was pre used, and usually those other things are self sufficient (bark, sac, etc)

#

which means ! right now Cheat is better even though it feels horribly unreliable

#

but maybe in TWW it will be different!

jolly sierra
#

shade save us and send some feedback bout cheat

chrome schooner
#

If it was still 30% believe me we'd play it

#

well cheat is just the option that saves you "more often"

#

it's not fun, it's not consistent, but well ... it works sometimes and is easier to pay because you don't have to do anything

#

that's also why so many people will swear it's better no matter what

#

pre feinting takes much more effort

(and rn it's not better anyway so...)
