#

ive healed a rogue from this discord yday,dude was so proud of his ''2.1''

#

ended up on losing 4 games

#

ive ended in a draw

#

was a rough matchup though

#

double shaman double hunter

jolly sierra
#

from this discord?

#

oof

#

damn

#

was someone known here?

#

by far ive met from here royal, calestrian, edaniel, blackguard and merek

#

idk if ive met someone without knowing from here

untold remnant
#

I have not been proud of 2.1 since BFA 🫣

Getting Elite for the first time was real nice. And currently 10/50 progress towards my first ever gladiator

#

The defensive/offensive one is pretty handy

#

From skillcapped free addon

sick wasp
#

although i am subbed there,like watching vids for strats n stuff

#

sometimes we rly missing obvious counters

grave basin
#

It's pretty nifty, condenses all my procs and defensives into tiny icons next to my toon

#

I used to make these custom ones as well like how long I have left on alter time

#

Or turtle

#

But their WA pack has all of that so I deleted most of my own

#

Actually a big one that you can get not even from skill capped is the one that shows when you have externals on you

#

Like ironbark

#

I can't believe I didn't know about that one till s3

Hello everyone, I find myself struggling a lot with ret palas in 3s (~2.2/2.3ish mmr), mostly when paired up with DHs, but any comp with a ret really is a pain. One minute wall + 1 minute shield + bop + bubble, and getting a cc on the healer seems near impossible w/o voice considering that if you leave a GCD to the ret he can sanct him, so hard to swap.

I have als oheard peeling wise that garrote has more effect than disarm on em right ?

waxen meteor
#

lol i have the first reaction like everyone else, i am generally stunned by the UI a bit

#

not sure if i captured the details i should have during first watch

#

I felt you never used feint?
CT position/timing can improve a bit, I feel there are multiple chances you can actually hit CT all targets at once but you didn't use it even you had max cp

waxen meteor
#

disarm does same for DH

#

the wall is not a big issue, iirc it's only 10% reduction now, the shield indeed big

#

i guess normally you would keep ret as main target 247, must send another go during 30 seconds Forbearance

#

not a lot of time we can waste for that 30 seconds

maiden siren
waxen meteor
#

yeah no need to take disarm against dh

grave basin
#

hopefully notes soon

#

hopefully we actually get a single line of changes

Seems like the general consensus is pretty doom and gloom for rogue in the TWW?

potent pivot
#

we are chilling

plucky escarp
#

I’m a newly declared rogue main (previously SV ride or die), so the outside perception was also ā€œrogues always think their class is trashā€

#

So, I’m happy to adopt the mentality for appearances

potent pivot
#

a lot of people are upset about losing certain abilties and other things, etc

potent pivot
plucky escarp
#

I think no dance on assa is going to be awkward, but idk. Maybe it will be fine

potent pivot
#

rogue especially in pvp has no reason to be super upset rn imo

#

pve tuning will come, the rest of the community will be fine once it does

plucky escarp
#

Nice. I feel like synergy wise Sub and deathstalker look nice together

#

Idk about assa and deathstalker without a dance but I’ve never played assa without dance either

cedar imp
#

any tips for a new pvp player to whos looking to pick up sub?

potent pivot
#

so sin/outlaw will have 2 charges of vanish and 6 sec subterfuge

#

that's somewhat similar to having dance

plucky escarp
#

Yeah maybe it just feels weird to vanish offensively

#

Like so much.

potent pivot
cedar imp
potent pivot
#

if you have questions feel free to ask here

#

lot's of helpful people hang around

cedar imp
#

Will definitely come back with questions after i've gotten my ass kicked in a hndful of times

potent pivot
#

yeah idk how familiar you are with the game in general, but

#

hit target dummies a lot, start with battlegrounds for a little while etc

#

once you're more on the comfortable side with your kit, start trying solo shuffle

cedar imp
potent pivot
#

like spells, some mechanical play etc

cedar imp
#

somewhat :)

potent pivot
#

i'm sure you'll get the hang of it fairly quickly, pvp is quite different from pve but a lot of the fundamentals still apply

wintry dew
#

If you did that and you "just" started playing, I bet you can achieve high ceilings

jolly sierra
#

guy is crazy good, but in pvp can stress and colapse a lot

cedar imp
#

Im sure pvp is a completely different game type

cedar imp
#

I hope I can live up to your expectations

wanton breach
#

pve doesn't directly translate to pvp

wintry dew
#

I believe he meant in a way that being good at PvE does not translate being good at pvp

jolly sierra
wintry dew
#

Which is true

jolly sierra
#

a player can be very good in a bracket

#

and very bad in the other one

#

and vice versa

wintry dew
#

Yeah you're right, but I meant in the PvE bracket

jolly sierra
#

wait im showing his achivs

wintry dew
#

Some people just hate pvp

wintry dew
jolly sierra
#

guy has a lot of cutting edges

#

but barely reached 1k7 xd

wintry dew
#

Pvp and PvE are really different scenarios as we both know. Maybe he just does not care enough to play pvp therefore not going higher than 1700

#

He also only tried 1 season during bfa

#

So it doesn't really prove he's bad

jolly sierra
#

pvp =/= pve basically

wintry dew
#

Yeah

jolly sierra
#

depends of player

wintry dew
#

I mean, that's a wild take

jolly sierra
#

cuz u are reaching the highest difficulty of pve

wintry dew
#

Wild as in you are wrong

jolly sierra
#

in the time

wintry dew
#

It is

potent pivot
#

cutting edge is considered difficult by a vast majority of the wow community, just because it might not be difficult to you doesn't mean it isn't difficult

jolly sierra
#

speak for urself dude

wintry dew
#

Are you talking ahead of the curve?

jolly sierra
#

yeah, sound a little entiltled

wintry dew
#

Barely any % of the wow players does it

#

Bro that's wild

potent pivot
#

a very small percentage of guilds get cutting edge

#

compared to the wow community as a whole

wintry dew
#

You being good and having a good group to play with is a thing. The casual Andy does not do it

#

Big time investment is one thing that makes it hard

potent pivot
#

there are players who just can't do it because it's difficult

#

if you've raided you'd know that some people just don't have it

#

so saying it's easy is just a bad take

wintry dew
#

Cutting edge is the top PvE achievment

#

Respectable is having aotc

#

You're talking about 100 players, I'm talking about the rest of them

potent pivot
#

i've raided at a CE level and i agree with royal 100%

wintry dew
#

I mean, you can take that take to the spec channels and most people will agree that it is wild

jolly sierra
wintry dew
#

You know what

#

You're right

wanton breach
#

saying something is objectively wrong is in itself "objectively wrong"

wintry dew
#

Thanks for your input gene.

potent pivot
#

same

wintry dew
#

I mean same

wintry dew
#

I'm not triggered whatsoever

potent pivot
#

!mute @empty brook yeah i'm good on reading anymore of this

wanton breach
jolly sierra
#

well now i recall why i feel so good assaulting raiders in their meeting time

#

lol

wintry dew
#

Nah he was just having a bad day clearly

#

I'm happy for him if he's a cutting edge player

jolly sierra
#

even me with a bad day wont look down at u

#

max cursing all of u without reason to quickly apologize later

#

but switching topic, im mad af in cata classic pvp

#

dude, ppl at lvl 85 with pvp gear still backpedals

#

and later says "gO tO rETaiL lUL"

cedar imp
jolly sierra
#

bruh u dont know wtf are u doing and thing for doing stuff slowly is griefing lol

wanton breach
#

u mad bra?

jolly sierra
#

a guy said i was trolling just i kept the flag for like 5m in eye of the storm

jolly sierra
#

then when i forcefully put it, an ally later took and cap it

#

told him was fucking dumb

#

and better know some tactics before saying BS

surreal barn
#

I’m pretty sure we all have a cutting edge

#

How else would we kill people

jolly sierra
#

sorry im just an aotc player lol

#

(bought them the most and dont care tbh)

cedar skiff
#

hitting masters in leauge is a good test of skill

#

Pve in wow is a test of listening to mouth breathers, not having a job

#

and a bunch of other things

#

way too much of a time sink for little back in return + the mouth breathers , cringe lords and arguing yappers

wanton breach
jolly sierra
#

is awful

surreal barn
#

Tried queuing shuffle. Just had to log out

#

45 mins man

jolly sierra
wanton breach
#

KEK the muted guy can still react to stuff and apparently doesn't get sarcasm

potent pivot
#

you're good, i guess i should've just done a warning, that's my bad Okay

wanton breach
steel scarab
#

I actually agree with Gene

cedar skiff
#

league u can log on, queue very quick, get rating, go back to life

steel scarab
#

Cutting edge = you're 1/25 people in a group, it's more about working together, it's all scripted, it's about finding a raid schedule that you can adhere to. It's still not easy, but it seems objectively easier than pvp

cedar skiff
#

wow , 4 hours to play one game

steel scarab
#

There's less individual contribution

cedar skiff
#

and the test of skill is halfed

#

not to mention the content creators actually make money

#

cause the game is popular

surreal barn
#

I make more money playing wow

cedar skiff
#

u dont make jack playing wow

surreal barn
#

Yeah I do

#

In queue

#

Bitch lol

cedar skiff
#

you could take the biggest wow pvp streamer, they are barley breaking 3k a month

#

shit gotten twice as expensive too

wintry dew
surreal barn
steel scarab
#

You're 1 of 3 people on an arena team, so your individual contribution is clearly much higher

vocal surge
#

I still consider Cutting Edge far easier to get than Gladiator lol

cedar skiff
#

league is the only test

#

completely random every game

#

200+ champs

#

never the same match

#

no friends to help you

#

its just you and what youve learnt+ know how to use

#

so many different angles and views you need to see from in any given match

#

1000000000000000000000000000+ scenarios

vocal surge
#

The main thing I consider holding a lot of people back from achieving Cutting Edge is guild member variance, Blizzard's smooth brain idea thinking making very important mechanics the same color as the floor, and availability of raid via schedules.

cedar skiff
#

meata always changing to, so you need to relearn matchups

steel scarab
#

Let me put it another way. Do you seriously think any r1 gladiator couldn't get dropped into a mythic raid and follow the raid leaders instructions and get through it?

Now, I ask the same question about a Cutting Edge raider dropped into arena with 2 glads. Is that person hitting rank 1 listening to the glad instructions?

vocal surge
#

Also Raid being far less rewarding for the amount of effort you put in compare to M+

cedar skiff
cedar skiff
#

lol yes that too

#

wow is p2p now

vocal surge
#

^^^

wintry dew
#

P2w

surreal barn
#

Ez

steel scarab
#

You could pay for both lol

surreal barn
#

Insert that always has been meme here

cedar skiff
#

now homies making good money can have the last laugh

vocal surge
#

PSA: If you buy Gladiator, you committed Stolen Valor in the PvP community.

cedar skiff
#

u thought u were grinding away on ur acc na

steel scarab
#

But I'm saying if you were doing it yourself, one is very clearly objectively more difficult than the other and that's pvp

cedar skiff
#

if ur plan is to find a group to play

vocal surge
#

EU Gladiator free af

steel scarab
#

Is it really? People are bad there?

vocal surge
#

Yes

cedar skiff
#

No eu is better

#

the average IQ in eu is like 1.5 of NA

vocal surge
#

Friend who was Challenger/Rival on NA is in Top 3 Blood DKs

#

With Gladiator in EU

cedar skiff
#

the average intelligence of a american is so low itd blow ur mind

vocal surge
cedar skiff
#

Eu is better at everything

wanton breach
vocal surge
#

That's hard cope

#

If it's SC2, I can see EU > NA

cedar skiff
#

except for basketballl and football , cause eu doesnt have black poeple

#

but other than sports like those, EU is king for all

vocal surge
#

But after seeing it with my eyes, NA > EU for Gladiator

#

In terms of difficulty and nothing will change my mind kek

wintry dew
#

Yeah it doesn't

#

What matters is seeing our rogue brothers being able to climb and achieve their goals

#

That's the thing we should aim to be happy about

wintry dew
#

I could hear that gif

cedar imp
#

lmao my friends were rewatching it yesterday

#

I was just screaming "booOOOgiE WOOoogie" all day

wintry dew
#

I love him so much

wanton breach
#

best character in JJK

wintry dew
#

His priorities are so... Straight

wanton breach
jolly sierra
#

EU players are better than NA players in pvp average

#

in NA u can still watch ppl backpedal at 1k6

#

in pikaboo stream reviews

cedar skiff
#

even more noticable in league

jolly sierra
#

also in NA u have ragnaros server

cedar skiff
#

like the average NA player is like low silver

#

high bronze

jolly sierra
#

that is the worst one overall worldwide

cedar skiff
#

the average eu player low gold

steel scarab
#

@wanton breach I have not, very true

hardy prairie
#

Anyone here playing sub in arenas currently?

#

I kinda have a question about something

wintry dew
#

Just shoot it out

hardy prairie
#

Okay so, there's a flagellation build that uses echoing reprimand, but I think it feels worse to go for it than tea for the big burst since tea gives mastery instead of a random blue combo point

potent pivot
hardy prairie
#

So just another dmg spell so you dont leave the target at 1 health

#

got it

jolly sierra
#

in the end is mastery embelishment afected by DR?

#

saw something weird in the stat weights when i picked the ring

potent pivot
#

the rule is generally if it gives points "300 rating" it's affected by DR, if it gives % then it's not

jolly sierra
#

weird

#

cuz food doesnt affect DR i think

wintry dew
#

Food shouldnt work inside arenas tho

jolly sierra
#

but i think need to check when i come back home

wintry dew
#

might work in bgs

jolly sierra
radiant glen
wintry dew
#

OOOKAY tell me more

radiant glen
#

% vers inc

#

usable in arena

jolly sierra
wintry dew
#

But do you literaly get special food or anyfood you eat will give you a buff?

#

how does it work

radiant glen
jolly sierra
#

go to ashran main city

radiant glen
#

like another sec tech

jolly sierra
#

and buy the food

#

is specific

wintry dew
#

Don't have sub for a few days 😐

radiant glen
wintry dew
#

bro

#

its NOODLES

#

LOOOOL

jolly sierra
#

glad cata token works with retail

jolly sierra
potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

lolol

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

think so

jolly sierra
#

got it, lets see what happens

#

im switching to infurious and equipping diurna

#

after i sell this shit

#

panda food always gives me 1,20~ versa or so

plucky escarp
#

What are the benefits of rupture on Sub? The dmg seems good. Is it to spend points get cdr on dance? Or is there a modifier or something I’m missing?

jolly sierra
#

dmg is good af, even better than assa one

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

i think they will drop combat anyways

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

sub mastery + shadow dmg bonuses are huge

#

remember is affected like evis w shadow

potent pivot
#

ye we've just had a few changes since sub rupture was doing crazy dmg

#

wasn't sure

jolly sierra
#

we have seen here dmg recaps from subs

radiant glen
jolly sierra
#

and dmg ticks were insane

potent pivot
#

icic

jolly sierra
#

compared to assa

radiant glen
#

not "omg spam rupture 30 times in dance" but def dont forget to have it ready

hardy prairie
#

For rupture I usually just use it after the burst, so after my secret tech is gone, strike into rupture then strike evis till I get secret back

#

and refresh rupture

#

also stun according to situation

plucky escarp
#

Thanks for the replies re: rupture on sub.

#

Is this the target opener on sub?

Cheap > Shadow Strike > All in > secret tech > shadow strike > evis > cheap > shadow strike > cheap > evis?

My all in macro has Tea, Symbols, Blades, Dance, Sepsis, on use badge, orc racial.

white gazelle
#

What classes are looking juiced for tww?

potent pivot
#

There’s really no way to know til the season starts

#

I know a couple classes are doing big damage but that could also be likely to change with tuning etc

white gazelle
#

I’m just stuck on what to play I want to dedicate to one character for the entire first season and I’m stuck between mage rogue hunter and enhance

potent pivot
#

Well, rogue and mage almost always have at least one spec that’s really good

#

But tbh just play whatever you find the most fun

#

You can reach basically every goal with any class/spec

white gazelle
#

I think my issue with rogue is I’m bad at playing control with spreading my cheap shots and kidneys

#

So despite my fun it’s not worth

surreal barn
#

With the health pool increase I’m gonna go with arms warrior

#

As being a super safe pick

#

I think some of their new heals are % based too right?

proper heath
#

Hey guys when does the season end?

potent pivot
#

23rd iirc

jolly sierra
#

alright i checked the weights in stats

#

those are

#

filial + pvp boots (azure disabled for less than 90% hp) = 125% between versa and mastery
filial + azure boots (without buff cuz less than 90% hp) = 128% between versa and mastery
pvp ring w huge versa + azure (current one, azure disables) = 128% between versa and mastery

#

filial + pvp boots (azure enabled) = 132% between versa and mastery
filial + azure boots (azure enabled) = 141% between versa and mastery
pvp ring w huge versa + azure (enabled) = 142% between versa and mastery

potent pivot
#

brother what

jolly sierra
#

was checking if was worth to drop double silk

#

XD

potent pivot
#

but why are you doing vers+mast

jolly sierra
#

cuz both increases poison and bleed dmg

potent pivot
#

ok i thought you were trying to see which version had less mastery DR

jolly sierra
#

tbh if the distribution for stats will be evenly

#

would rather prefer to spread more vers

#

over mastery

potent pivot
#

why

jolly sierra
#

both are for the same end

#

if numbers combines into the same

#

was checking a lot

#

losing a lot of vers to add mastery, but in the end the versa was doing the same stat increase for poisons and bleeds

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

look double azure + filial

potent pivot
#

there's a reason everyone is sticking to 30-32% vers

jolly sierra
#

double azure + versa ring

jolly sierra
potent pivot
jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

pretty sure shadenox even runs less vers than everyone else

#

think he runs like 30+ crit 27% vers

jolly sierra
#

he has 34% mast

#

bah

#

crit

#

OOF

potent pivot
#

ye

jolly sierra
#

i can switch gems tho

potent pivot
#

crit became more important because of the fok build

jolly sierra
#

lemme see

potent pivot
#

i don't think it's worth losing the mast for vers

jolly sierra
#

but losing the vers for the crit in gems it seems

#

i was using zen neltharites

surreal barn
#

My gems are mastery haste

#

Aqo said get a little haste so I got a little haste

potent pivot
#

ye a little haste is fine

jolly sierra
#

i see

#

im dropping some stats anyways

#

shade is using 2 crit mastery jewelry

surreal barn
#

I think once your mastery is high enough the little changes aren’t going to make or break anything

#

We’re still top dam tbh

jolly sierra
#

alright

#

rerolled all the stats

#

this is the spread now lol

fallen scaffold
#

i feel like the haste u get from set items is enough

#

i wouldnt gem haste

#

though i do feel energy starved at times during long games, but i dont think adding even 400ish more haste would effect me too much

potent pivot
fallen scaffold
#

ya

#

why do i feel so energy starved

#

sometimes

#

around dampening

potent pivot
#

as what spec

fallen scaffold
#

assa

#

duh

#

;p

potent pivot
#

your name is yellow sir

fallen scaffold
#

pre nerf

#

gotta change dat

potent pivot
#

you need to have dots rolling to regain energy

fallen scaffold
#

idk how

#

they be rolling 24/7 on 2/3 targets iusually

#

should i try harder to get them rolling on healer?

#

as well

#

every time

potent pivot
#

you can go to #bot-spam and type !assa or !assassination (idr) to add assa role !outlaw to remove the outlaw role

fallen scaffold
#

word ty

potent pivot
#

or you can go to #welcome and change your react to the post

potent pivot
fallen scaffold
#

therewe go

#

idk.. maybe im spamming fok too much

potent pivot
#

maybe

#

the main benefit of haste for assa is that it speeds up dot ticks

#

like in SL we were mostly stacking haste vers

#

we got all these stronger energy talents in DF and everyone acts like haste is useless now

#

mastery is really good don't get me wrong, especially for big KB hits etc

#

but a lot of the time you can win just from rotting everyone

fallen scaffold
#

yee the 580k kingbane crits make me straight up the opposite of flacid

potent pivot
#

can be really nice especially if you try to use KB's first hit in execute range

#

get someone under 35% then shiv/SD/KB and hope you get em low enough for sudden demise to proc

sick wasp
#

thats how sin is with starvation,haste does very little to controbute to nrg regen

#

even if u had 40%+

surreal barn
#

I went ahead and converted a crafted from mastery/versa to mastery/haste as well since my versa was high

#

I honestly can’t tell a difference in battle though šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

steel scarab
#

I used the haste trinket

#

And the crit trinket

#

With no pvp trinket

#

So I had a bit more haste than the average person

#

It was fine

You think you can make enough gold for more tokens before tww?

#

Lets go bro

waxen meteor
#

Pls!

potent pivot
#

there's a couple addons and there's also a chat command

#

you can use either method

plucky escarp
#

I use the chat command but yeah. Game is unplayable to me if it isn’t zoomed to the max

surreal barn
#

Ultrawide makes it a lot of fun

#

Highly recommend

plucky escarp
#

I do love that WoW lets you do ultra wide. Some games hit you with the black bars on the side, so I ended up switching back to normal wide

waxen meteor
#

i feel it might be linked the pixals?

#

like i am running only 1920*1080 on laptop, it can never go that far?

potent pivot
fallen scaffold
#

^

potent pivot
#

the same with the advance interface options add on, but slightly more complicated

potent pivot
#

and find it in settings

#

either from the add on button on your mini map

#

or with whatever chat command opens it like /leatrix idk what it is exactly

#

but it should have a button on the side of your map

waxen meteor
#

there's a checkbox for max camera distance

#

i did that

#

but it's still nowhere cloes to that video

potent pivot
#

/reload

waxen meteor
#

... no i mean i did that long ago, been checked

potent pivot
#

it doesn't look like he's using any special monitor in the vid, that looks like normal zoom

potent pivot
#

i don't think being on laptop should affect it afaik

#

have you tried the chat command too?

#

/run SetCVar("cameraDistanceMaxZoomFactor", 2.6)
this

waxen meteor
#

Yeah i tried that too

#

it made it worse

#

Leatrix for sure is best so far

potent pivot
#

o.O

waxen meteor
#

but it's just no as good as that

potent pivot
#

Leatrix does the same thing as the chat command

waxen meteor
#

maybe you could try change your game to 1920*1080 with max distance

#

see if it's same

potent pivot
#

can you take a ss or something

#

of what your max zoom looks like atm

waxen meteor
#

Like this far

#

It's not bad here..

#

but in arena it seems always shorter and keep changing

potent pivot
#

yeah pretty sure you have it on

waxen meteor
#

is there something we need to do to have the camera not moving then

potent pivot
#

what do you mean

waxen meteor
potent pivot
#

the camera will always be pushed closer if there's something in the way of it

waxen meteor
#

mine, is swapping to close look every now and then

#

like gate open

#

also near pillar

#

constantly changing angle

potent pivot

that's because he has nothing blocking his camera angle on that map

#

big pillars or arenas with a roof or other objects will always push your camera closer

#

there's nothing to change that

potent pivot
#

his camera gets pushed closer because of a pillar, same as usual

fallen scaffold
#

sounds like u need to go into ur options

#

under controls

#

and make sure camera follwoing style is on nmever adjust

waxen meteor
potent pivot
#

yeh if i'm understanding correctly, you're talking about the camera changing zoom position when there's something that would otherwise obstruct it

#

like this is normal

#

this is obstructed

#

because the building would've been in the way of you seeing your character

#

i don't think this is something we can change

waxen meteor
#

I am doing skirmish now trying to get into the same arena map

jolly sierra
#

guys

#

descended from 2190 and reached 2320 today

#

should i stop for now?

#

to get energy back?

waxen meteor
#

Nothing to lose anyway at this point

jolly sierra
#

hmm

#

then lets play till 3-3 or loss?

waxen meteor
#

well if you are tired... then just take a break...

jolly sierra
#

im ok tbh

outer sky
#

Fuck yeah!

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

played till i lose

#

and lose 72 CR

#

xd

#

a druid expected me to kill a 200k hp pally running behind a pillar in like 2 seconds

#

when i got a cc landed

#

checked the replay and tbh didnt know what he expected XD

#

(guy died when the other one ran away)

oh. lets hope report system will take care of them in this case

wintry dew

Hopefully

If someone's gonna throw id rather they afk than leave and waste everyone's time

Atleast the game plays on and you can potentially 3-3

#

so i want to make sure i have this right: in order to nelf stealth properly, a) i can't have any dots at all, & b) not be in aoe

opal bone
harsh steppe
# potent pivot yep

ty
ok cool. so that means pretty much, most of the time to get it off correctly, i'll probably have to run around a pillar & then pop it off

potent pivot
#

not necessarily no

surreal barn
#

I didn’t know nelfs could be hpals šŸ¤”

potent pivot
#

you only really need to run behind a pillar for regular restealths

#

you can meld -> stealth quite quickly

harsh steppe
#

ok just want to make sure, ty
i am still worst rogue out there so i'll be running behind pillars and melding until i get good enough to identify all dots

surreal barn
#

Meld has no GCD

#

You can get it off in the middle of WW3

harsh steppe
#

as long as i'm not in aoe or dots

surreal barn
#

Even AoE and dots should be fine

#

It’s if you can press a button twice fast enough

harsh steppe
#

huh?

potent pivot
#

those will only be an issue if you want to full restealth

surreal barn
#

If you were running no subterfuge I’d agree

potent pivot
#

if you're just melding to avoid a cast or CC, or to garrote, you can do it pretty much whenever

harsh steppe
#

i have a ton of clips of me attempting to nelf in the middle of aoes or dots and i can't do it properly

potent pivot
#

because you only need to enter actual stealth for a second to use subterfuge for example

Hyper, how's paladins

harsh steppe
#

good! i'm having a blast

wintry dew
harsh steppe
potent pivot
harsh steppe
#

not in the first one

potent pivot
#

the 2nd one

harsh steppe
#

well none of them worked

potent pivot
#

moving breaks meld

harsh steppe
surreal barn
#

Can I see your macro

wintry dew
#

It did not seem it was pressing stealth no

potent pivot
#

doesn't look like it

surreal barn
#

Yeah I can compare his macro to mine after I finish this meeting

#

We are all looking for that subterfuge sign in your buffs

harsh steppe
potent pivot
#

also in the 2nd one you were pressing abilities as far as i can tell

#

which is going to break it too

harsh steppe
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

i have to have subterfuge?

potent pivot
#

for what

wintry dew
#

No

harsh steppe
#

for smeld to work

potent pivot
#

no

wintry dew
#

No

surreal barn
#

You don’t

potent pivot
#

if you want to benefit from Subterfuge you need to meld->stealth to proc Subterfuge

#

you can meld->stealth without subt

harsh steppe
#

ok i just looked at it again, look at 0:02
i'm not pressing any abilities for a few seconds, or moving, and smeld doesn't work

wintry dew
#

Aren't you in any AoE?

potent pivot
#

yeah idk if that's because of the DK's grippy hands or not

surreal barn
#

But if you don’t have it then yeah gtfo of the fray

#

Even a dot will take you out

harsh steppe
#

trickz you said i can be in aoe or dots and it would still work so im confused

wintry dew
#

For it to work you need to be 5 head

harsh steppe
#

zeiss* sorry

potent pivot
#

you should have meld macro'd to also !stealth after it

copper torrent
#

Quick question about assa, I feel like I am running out of energy fairly quickly. Is it fairly common for rogues to be sitting near empty for energy? Or should I try to conserve my energy. By not spamming mutilate or whatever when my opponents are all dotted up?

harsh steppe
#

it is

wintry dew
#

And literally be aware of the dot ticking rate

surreal barn
#

I assumed you had subterfuge also it’s my fault

potent pivot
harsh steppe
#

so you do need subterfuge?

wintry dew
#

No

harsh steppe
#

zeiss just said i did?

potent pivot
#

i said if you want to use subterfuge or just avoid CC or a cast then it won't matter if you're in combat/dots/aoe

#

if you want to use it like a vanish or something it's different

harsh steppe
#

yes i meant zeiss, sorry trickz

potent pivot
#

you're trying to use it like vanish

surreal barn
#

You don’t need subterfuge for the macro to work, but subterfuge lets you still use stealth abilities even if you get popped out after the macro completes

potent pivot
#

but that's not how it works exactly

harsh steppe
#

can i or can i not use smeld in the middle of aoe or dotted

potent pivot
#

for what you're trying to do no

#

if you were using it how most use it yes

harsh steppe
#

wym

#

smeld either works or it doesn't?

potent pivot
#

if you're trying to use it as a vanish then you can't have dots or be in aoe

#

smeld has multiple uses

harsh steppe
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

zeiss you meant i can use it if im trying to do the subterfuge thing?

potent pivot
#

if you see a Mage casting Polymorph on you, you can press meld to negate their poly

#

if you time it correctly

#

then dots/aoe don't matter

#

that is why smeld is so strong

harsh steppe
potent pivot
#

no it drops you from being target by them

harsh steppe
#

combat* sorry

surreal barn
#

Most use it as a quick access to dodge an attack or cheapshot /garrote because they are melding into stealth just so they can get the subterfuge buff up to do so, they don’t expect their stealth to last

wintry dew
#

Not combat

surreal barn
#

Looks like you are sub too

harsh steppe
#

ahh

surreal barn
#

Which meld helps less

harsh steppe
#

what is the smeld macro in it's simplest form, i want to double check

potent pivot
#

yeh it's big for assa for empowered garrotes

wintry dew
#

Shadowmeld
Stealth

#

That's the simplest form

harsh steppe
#

tysm yall ā¤ļø

potent pivot
wintry dew
#

Still, you're making it harder on yourself to play nelf

potent pivot
#

yeah stuff like meld should really be focused on later

wintry dew
#

But you do you

potent pivot
#

once you're getting really good, then you start using meld to eat enemy cc

surreal barn
#

You want !stealth instead of stealth for sure

potent pivot
#

if you were playing assa i'd say go ahead and use it because you just press the macro whenever you want to empowered garrote multiple targets

#

much easier than trying to meld CC

surreal barn
#

wintry dew
#

Tricks spitting facts

potent pivot
#

i love this WA

#

see it pop up -> meld

surreal barn
#

lol

#

I didn’t know that existed

potent pivot
#

yeah there's a few

#

if you check nahj's wago profile i think there's one that was made in 10.1.7 called meld CC which has more

#

it has stormbolt, disarm, coil and some trap i forget

harsh steppe
potent pivot
#

you can leave the embed man

#

lol

harsh steppe
#

oh... i don't want to be annoying

potent pivot

you're fine

you're asking for help with a topic, not just promoting, that's not an issue Okay

harsh steppe
#

how's rogue looking in tww so far

potent pivot
#

there's really no telling until the season starts

#

in pve damage is looking a little lackluster, but i have the feeling we're looking fine

stoic spruce
#

our control is more important than in pve so we're looking good imo

#

as long as RMP exists....

neat dove
#

when you kingsbane into AMS

solid wharf
#

How many stacks of macabre do you guys go for before secret techniques? I always try to hold up until the last second of dance and sometimes mess it up

neat dove
#

3

solid wharf
#

Oooh okay…I’ve been trying to stack to 5 šŸ˜‚ thank you!

wintry dew
#

Be aware that if you cast it right before your buffs disappear, the damage will also lose the buff modifiers

#

Or so I was told

solid wharf
#

Oooh okay didn’t know that I thought if I had like a second of dance left it would hit for full damage the entire time

#

Thanks!

potent pivot
#

so if you drop the buff, any ticking damage will as well

solid wharf
#

Oh wow okay that makes sense

#

Been playing for so long I don’t know why I never questioned that šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

potent pivot
#

yeh only very niche stuff snapshots, not even sure if there's a single spell in the game that snapshots anymore but there's definitely no rogue abilities that do currently

wintry dew
#

Would you consider refreshing garr in shadowdance / subterfuge windows a snapshot?

potent pivot
#

oh shit, nightstalker might still snapshot actually

#

but that's pretty insignificant

wintry dew
#

More into the PvE side of things really

potent pivot
#

so like nightstalker might make garr/rupture snapshot a little damage yeah

i'm not sure if that was ever fixed or not

potent pivot
#

god i'm out of touch rn i need sleep

wintry dew
#

Can you go and have some?

potent pivot
#

things like macabre and dark shadow, etc, don't snapshot

potent pivot

just didn't get much last night
