@jolly sierra seeeeeeeeeeeexo

#

Apparently beta shuffles are popping off

#

Cause retail is too fucked ATM

#

But also apparently someone has been vanishing 41 times in an arena and being unlosable

World of Warcraft Forums

Currently rogue is bugged on beta and I’d like to keep it this way for when TWW goes live. Currently Vanish is not accruing a cooldown. Here’s a screenshot from a solo shuffle I just did where I vanished 41 times. And two of the games were only a minute or two long. The game feels unlosable. Please don’t fix. This is the best bug WoW has ever ha...

@potent pivotdid you find out wether it's possible to acquire df elite sets in the off season?

vale basalt
#

what's wrong with retail shuffle btw?

stoic spruce
wanton breach
#

the transmog sets, not the weapons

stoic spruce
#

Yeah the conquest that you buy and elite that you earn.

grave basin
#

It's just ele sham and uh Dks farming everyone

stoic spruce
#

Teehee

#

May or may not be me (it's not, prepatch boring atm)

outer sky
grave basin
#

Think I'm gonna be a beta gamer till release

#

Really tried to enjoy retail but people fotm reroll so quick it's disgusting

#

I haven't had a single lobby without an ele or DK or both

outer sky
#

Yeah ele is popping off

grave basin
#

Ele doing everyone's damage combined

outer sky
#

They're really good on beta too

grave basin
#

Gonna try warrior, heard collosus is fun

outer sky
#

Lost double bladestorm though

grave basin
#

Eh, maybe even feral

potent pivot
#

need someone to post here if they hit 1800 for the first time in "S4" and get the set

indigo hill
#

I'll give it a go. Haven't done that one yet. Just need to turn of all my chats so I dint have to see people yell at me for sucking at rogue. 🀣

2x gladiator weapons or 2 tier for the remainder of the prepatch?

#

how do i get my macros to stick man

#

it's so annoying

#

everytime i log out my macros dissapear

grave basin
#

@potent pivot are you bneta

#

beta

#

am i bugged to shit or what, when im in subterfuge it says im not in stealth

#

and it swaps to my non stealth bar

potent pivot
surreal barn
#

I been having fun with monk πŸ‘€

#

I think it will be a solid choice as well next season

outer sky
potent pivot
outer sky
#

Both

potent pivot
#

and that's the first i've heard of the pvp talent thing

#

trying to think of what could be causing that

#

i think they're working on stance bars for stealth or something along those lines and that's why subterfuge is broken

#

apparently you can't ambush during it either sometimes

grave basin
#

it just says not in stealth

#

i mean thats kinda gamebreaking lol

#

just made a gnome warrior , pretty fun to line up all your demolish stacks into a cs window

jolly sierra
outer sky
grave basin
#

i can

#

i mean like sap or shadow strike

#

i mean not being able to cheap itself is pretty big

#

nbut yea sub is completely bricked

#

and i cant cs as assa

wintry axle
#

how is kingsbane on beta? I can imagine its pretty damp?

outer sky
#

which is really bad considering people have 6x the health

wintry axle
#

haha yiiikes

jolly sierra
#

how tf can scales that shitty lol

outer sky
#

I dont really get it to be honest

#

the tooltip is showing a number 2.5x what it shows on retail

#

yet in a game its doing the same damage as on retail

#

and vers is lower on beta than retail

#

so really i dont understand

#

if someone wants to explain that to me I'm all ears

jolly sierra
#

i think formula was not fully done yet

#

cuz ye, yesterday argued w trickz about that and if a player has like 2.5m HP or so in TWW

#

then the KB should do like 800k dmg to be considered "decent"

#

like in retail with our 370-450k KBs

#

considered around 1.5m average HP from PvP

surreal barn
#

% wise

outer sky
#

Look out boys and girls, there's a new rival in town

outer sky
surreal barn
#

That’s the reason tbh

outer sky
#

if the tooltip shows 2.5x dam it should do 2.5x dam

surreal barn
#

Even with the extra agi the multiplier has to be higher on retail I guess

#

Unless big

#

Bug

#

Do we still have to run kingsbane on beta though?

outer sky
#

yes

surreal barn
#

Lame.

#

You tried out sub trickster yet

#

It’s pretty fun lol

outer sky
#

ive tried sub not trickster though

surreal barn
#

That distract smoke bomb is gonna be so fun in bgs

outer sky
#

oh

#

nvm

#

I did try it

#

I'm using it to juke trinkets

#

theyll for sure change the animation

#

right now its too similar to smoke bomb

surreal barn
#

They won’t,l

#

BUT

#

Bigdebuffs will be looked at more

#

Seeing the distract cd on your head for 90 seconds

potent pivot
#

KB was also nerfed

#

either way i think it's kinda irrelevant rn

#

hope for more tunning Okay

outer sky
#

We love to see it folks

potent pivot
outer sky
potent pivot
#

yeah that's odd

#

did you report that as a bug by chance

jolly sierra
jolly sierra
#

this sound reasonable compared to a fucker doing 5m chaos bolts, right?

potent pivot
#

i mean

#

there's zero chance 5m chaos bolts make it to live

#

considering they already nerfed KB's instant dmg

#

i'd say 900k-1m is understandable

surreal barn
#

Idk man, Retpocolypse happened

#

As I say the word a shiver runs down my neck

potent pivot
#

yeah i mean you never know, some shit slips through the cracks

jolly sierra
#

nothing was worse than ret from DF s1 dude

potent pivot
#

sometimes they do tuning every week, sometimes it takes months

jolly sierra
#

guy could flip on u on any moment and then u are dead

#

for just a moment

#

i felt i reached heaven

potent pivot
#

i just think they noticed KB was damn near a death sentence at -35% hp and changed it for that reason

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

we also deserve some love u know lolol

potent pivot
potent pivot
#

i also think there's more pressing things they prolly have to worry about first, thinking realistically

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

there's still A LOT of bugs

jolly sierra
# potent pivot

so, DF wise and across all nerfs, what would u consider a decent dmg for a KB?

#

still keep my position about hitting like 1/5 hp in one hit

#

for a min cd

potent pivot
#

i think that's just a bad POV

#

how many abilities were there that hit 500k consistently even in s4

jolly sierra
#

the difference is we used it as an execute or burst window

#

most of assa dmg is garrote

potent pivot
#

ye but it doesn't really matter how you use it right

jolly sierra
#

those fuckers maybe hit like 500k in very infrequent windows and just distributed their dmg around that

potent pivot
#

how many other abilities did that much dmg in the game

jolly sierra
#

chaos bolt comes to my head

potent pivot
#

i think if healthpools in s1 are going to be 7m, then KB doing ~1m is perfectly fine

#

if you get one off when someones that low it's almost like a ToD, then we also have sudden demise behind it

jolly sierra
#

five millions chaos bolt sounds funny af anyways

potent pivot
#

could be that we just drop KB altogether

#

but DB+SBS would need to out damage you pressing KB on CD

#

KB dot does good dam too

jolly sierra
#

personally im thinking in considering binding cold blood to a DFA

#

with timed deathstalker stacks

potent pivot
#

yeah i'm kinda hoping something like that is actually viable personally

jolly sierra
#

lemme check the tree

potent pivot
#

that kind of build would likely require DTB and Amp

#

unless we actually have good shiv goes, maybe running hemo w/o wound could work

jolly sierra
#

how to u think it interacts w cold blood? like crit with chaos bolts?

#

we need some testing tho

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

i see

potent pivot
#

you don't need CB for it

jolly sierra
#

ye, then is just better to bind it to KB anyways

potent pivot
#

you'd take Alacrity+Deeper Strat

#

it's already guaranteed crit

#

more combo points=more dmg

jolly sierra
#

i thought we were still on lethality + CB plan

potent pivot
#

i don't think CB is worth the way things stand rn

jolly sierra
#

hmm

untold remnant
jolly sierra
#

thought worked like w chaos bolt

potent pivot
#

envenom modifiers:
Rapid Injection +10%
Deeper Stat +5%
Sanguine Strat +5%
Amp poison +35%
Deathstalker +60%
Shiv +30%
DfA +40%?
Symbolic Victory +10%

#

what am i missing

untold remnant
#

They need to fix Fatal Intent. Currently does no damage..

I mean design wise. Add death stalker mark to either ambush, cheap shot or garrote from stealth. That way you can use it in all types of content.

Then the fatal intent loop into zoldyck, into sudden demise is nice

potent pivot
#

there's like +185% dmg total on top of envenom when you line everything up

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

yeah i'm not bothering adding mastery atm just talents

jolly sierra
#

add DFA then

potent pivot
#

^^

#

i did a minute ago

jolly sierra
#

got it then

potent pivot
#

so +195%

jolly sierra
#

doesnt sounds like something so hard to reach i think

#

u already set up w shiv and need to wait till darkest night is up

#

its all i think

#

maybe u need to time up with some on-use trinket?

potent pivot
#

main thing i want to know is the duration of darkest night

#

and whether it's a target debuff or personal buff

jolly sierra
#

we need a guy in beta

#

for that

potent pivot
#

if it's a personal buff and long enough duration and you can bank it, would be pretty good

#

i have a feeling that's not the case kekdog

jolly sierra
#

hmmmmmmmm

#

we can know that right now

#

but need the right guy for that

#

XD

#

BTW this shit still sells well

#

just in case

#

50g per 3 marks of honor

outer sky
#

lmfao good 'ol shadowlands

blissful osprey
#

looks like on murlok io a lot of rogue are running crimson tempest build in 2's (assassination)

#

can anyone confirm if this is the meta for 2s even?

#

I'm new to assassination rogue pvp

outer sky
#

yes

#

confirmed

jolly sierra
#

lol

outer sky
#

Raz just says "I'm not going to tell you. Sorry"

outer sky
blissful osprey
#

thank you!

tawdry imp
#

maybe I've just screwed up my talent tree since prepatch but I feel like I get away with vanish successfully a lot less than I used to

potent pivot
#

vanish stealth drops after 1.5 seconds now instead of 3 seconds if you press it mid active combat/with dots on you etc

jolly sierra
#

i recall when ppl come from other discords asking how to deal w rogues here

tawdry imp
#

swore I popped cloak before but still somehow ended slowed and eventually hit with aoe again

outer sky
tawdry imp
#

to be fair I've only played a little bit and immediately complained about it

#

but mostly because it was literally never an issue then I had a problem with it several times in one game

#

probably just need to adapt

jolly sierra
#

starlink can you test something in beta again?

outer sky
jolly sierra
#

as aura (if is a buff, debuff, has duration and stuff like that)

potent pivot
#

it should be a self buff

#

but i'm curious of the duration

outer sky
#

It has a 30s duration

#

and it is indeed a self buff

potent pivot
#

mmm

jolly sierra
#

got it

#

that can be very approachable i think

potent pivot
#

that means your big envenom can be used on any target

jolly sierra
#

ye

#

and can be timed in a kill window

#

without issues

potent pivot
#

only thing that sucks is, if envenom does end up doing big dam, people will start tracking it

#

so when you have the buff they try to counterplay etc

#

also dunno if it can be purged

outer sky
#

I just tested on a training dummy. Darkest night+Shiv+tea+cold blood for crit hit for 1.9m

potent pivot
#

you don't need CB

outer sky
#

oh youre right

#

sorry

#

regardless

potent pivot
#

no worries

outer sky
#

1.9m

potent pivot
#

try 7 combo point

outer sky
#

ok sec

potent pivot
#

with 10 stacks of amp poison too

jolly sierra
#

lol

potent pivot
#

was just adding up all the raw %dmg

jolly sierra
#

hm

potent pivot
#

we don't know for sure how much %mast we will have

jolly sierra
#

is still a raw dmg increase on envenom imo for % buff

potent pivot
#

so we can just theorize 30-50% or something, it's whatever really

#

yeah but it's an uncertain variable

jolly sierra
#

just adding that i say

potent pivot
#

i was adding up the dmg we'd have no matter what

#

stats come last

outer sky
#

ok

#

I went all in poison build

#

played this

potent pivot
outer sky
#

got 10 stacks of amp poison

#

tea>shiv>darkest night

#

2.7m envenom on a training dummy

potent pivot
wild mango
#

for arena or bg blitz?

jolly sierra
#

did u used DFA w that?

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

remember dmg does raise w that

outer sky
#

no lol

#

let me try dfa

#

thatll be funny

jolly sierra
#

k

#

lol

potent pivot
wild mango
#

gotchya

outer sky
#

YO

#

@jolly sierra You might be onto something bro

#

I just hit a 5.5m envenom on the training dummy

#

using DFA

potent pivot
#

i see how it is

outer sky
#

DFA was the kicker sorry

jolly sierra
#

i knew it

potent pivot
#

we've been at this for a while lmao

#

also

#

oops

#

we'd prolly play this

outer sky
#

I'm still skeptical of it though tbh

potent pivot
#

dropping CT for something maybe

jolly sierra
#

i think that is the new KB, the timed envenom

#

maybe we can bind the on use trinket there

potent pivot
#

those modifiers stack up nice

outer sky
#

it wont hid as hard on a player in a game

#

hit*

#

say it hits 4m

#

you need everything to line up

#

if you dont kill

#

your dam is kinda fucked

#

its super all in

potent pivot
#

really @untold remnant came up with the idea

#

he was testing it a few days ago

outer sky
#

I just queued for a SS

#

I'll try it out

potent pivot
#

i mean even without the Darkest Night and Dfa on every envenom

#

envenom should still do somewhat decent dam

jolly sierra
outer sky
jolly sierra
#

still feels could be a good option atm cuz dont need u to vanish

outer sky
#

with tea and shiv its like 600k

#

1.3m crits on a dummy

#

so 1m crits on a player

potent pivot
#

yeah it's easily countered as well

surreal barn
jolly sierra
outer sky
potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

2.9m

#

hmmm

#

vs 7m average

outer sky
#

did it again got 3m

jolly sierra
#

it hits double than retail KB proportional-wise

outer sky
#

more than that

jolly sierra
#

so

outer sky
#

my KBs are critting for 450-650k

jolly sierra
#

can we conclude

#

this is the new KB?

outer sky
#

No

#

Because to do this you sacrifice a lot of spread pressure

jolly sierra
#

well, yeah

#

i think we need to research more

#

for the ideal scenario

potent pivot
#

how so

#

the only major aoe you're dropping is IC

jolly sierra
#

maybe lack of massive garrotes

potent pivot
#

you're not really dropping any bleed damage

outer sky
#

I think TTK is good with this build

#

to make sure the big envenom is empowered

jolly sierra
#

i was talking about the mass silence

potent pivot
#

for rapid injection?

outer sky
potent pivot
#

that's only 10%, but possible

#

if this reliably lands kills i could see it

outer sky
#

This is the tree ive come up with

potent pivot
outer sky
#

we could drop KB for IC or CT

potent pivot
#

dropping execute dam just sounds terrible

#

dropping KB maybe yeah

outer sky
#

well yours is unplayable

#

we lose our MS

potent pivot
#

5% poison application is a horrible talent

potent pivot
#

dropping wound isn't unplayable

outer sky
#

hmmmm

#

That sounds like it could be troll

#

but maybe with hemo it could work

potent pivot
#

i can guarantee that it's workable

#

we played with only hemo for a long ass time

#

i know it got nerfed a bit

#

but if we're focusing a more ST build it can work

#

depending on how fast you can cycle through these deathstalker buffs in matches

#

that's going to be the biggest factor for pressure i think

#

might only be good into certain shit, etc

outer sky
#

without CB and MA KB is probably not worth

#

I just wish there was something else we could drop so we could get to both IC and CT

#

Is AP really necessary?

#

yeah 30% bleed damage during big env window probably is

#

fuck

#

Could drop TTK

#

but idk it feels good

potent pivot
#

Yeah it kinda sucks but you gotta make trades somewhere

#

Zoldycks, AP, SD are like our most important talents imo

#

Ever since DTB got nerfed it’s been pretty trash

#

If no wound is bad enough you’d still take it, it just feels like wasting 2 points on PB to get there is such a waste in comparison

outer sky
#

now im actually getting pissed off

#

this is untestable

potent pivot
#

can't get it off during a match?

outer sky
#

yeah

#

because its fucking greyed out

#

all of my active pvp talents

#

are unusable

#

in the game

potent pivot
#

Had a feeling it was a bug

#

It’s wild how much random shit can break for no reason

#

Might have something to do with the new spell book or the hero talents being added to the talent window

outer sky
#

deathstalkers mark is also bugged

#

its not applying like it should

#

I have to vanish for it sometimes

potent pivot
#

I think that’s just caused by the subterfuge bug but who knows at this point

outer sky
#

I got it off once

#

2m envenom

potent pivot
#

I’m curious how much damage fok does on ST

#

Apparently in pve it’s equal overall dps to cast fok in ST when you have the fok buff from hero talents

outer sky
#

Yeah idk about this build

#

It feels like I have to play the whole game around trying to get one envenom off

blissful osprey
#

can anyone link a ghood pvp build for prepatch on live right now for ass rogue?

outer sky
blissful osprey
#

ohh ty i'll try that

#

i'd need to drop 3 talent point to pick up CB

#

wouldn't you have to drop thistle tea or double vanish to gt CB?

outer sky
#

Nooo

#

Drop strategem

#

Alacrity

#

Grab lethality and CB

#

Double vanish is OP

#

And tea is basically a 15% damage buff every time you press it

#

Way too good

blissful osprey
#

okay ty

potent pivot
potent pivot
#

Lethal+CB vs Alac+DS

outer sky
#

I need to hear the argument for alac+DS

#

I must be missing something because those talents seem so bad

steel scarab
#

Are we supposed to lose to tank demon hunters 1v1 in world pvp

#

Because

#

idk what the fuck just happened

surreal barn
#

yes

steel scarab
#

I got him to 25% but I used everything

#

It did not feel uh

#

favorable for us

outer sky
steel scarab
#

😦

#

I usually consider myself to be a pretty above average duelist, in 1v1 situations

#

And I sincerely felt like I had basically no chance lol

outer sky
#

You're not solo killing a tank without dampening or flag/orb stacks

river pollen
#

is draconic gladiator's claw a better OH for sub since it has mastery compared to the draconic dagger

#

im not even sure if rogues can use use claws tbh

jolly sierra
#

doesnt matter rn

#

we are in prepatch

stoic spruce
#

Do people forget every 2 years that prepatch is an unbalanced shit show

steel scarab
#

I don't think it's wholly unreasonable to expect that a game with both an expansion price and a monthly subscription fee would hire enough developers that the game would have some semblance of balance before going live

#

Saying "it's always unbalanced every two years," as true as it may be historically, doesn't mean we should accept it or be happy with the product

stoic spruce
#

It is quite unreasonable wdym

#

So you're saying

#

That

steel scarab
#

I'm saying this shit should be ironed out before it goes live, yes.

#

Like how when I mount and I can't fly, and have to dismount and remount

#

That's aggravating and should have been hotfixed by now

#

No excuse

stoic spruce
#

20+ year old engine with code that no one understands is a pretty good excuse

#

You'd have an argument if the game was made in the last 6 or 7 years

#

The only way they could do what you say they should do is if they completely remake it. There's no greater stress test than pushing it to live. You think we get just over a month of prepatch for the luls?

#

I'm sure they want to release things in an unbuggy state too

steel scarab
#

I think what they actually want

#

And they being the people at the top

#

Is do the absolute least amount of work using the least amount of manpower and thus, the least amount of payroll possible to keep people like us just satisfied enough that we don't quit.

#

Point blank

#

If you think they couldn't possibly do a better, faster job than they're doing, you are actually crazy

#

Current frustration:

#

There is supposed to be a questgiver here. This is a BFA quest. Repeat: a BFA quest

#

Looked it up online, everyone has the same issue

#

He's occasionally phased, nobody knows why specifically. Suggestions include, fly back and forth until maybe he becomes unphased? Or log off and log in? Or just try it another day

#

It's not acceptable, dude. This is a daily repeatable quest from BFA and it's still not fixed

#

Just stop typing lol

stoic spruce
#

Buggy game is buggy, more at 11

#

I doubt a daily from 2 expansions ago is on their priority list

steel scarab
#

Do you think maybe it should have been on their priority list 2 expansions ago?

#

It seems like your answer would be no, as you're an apologist for all degrees of garbage workflow and shortmanning their workloads

stoic spruce
#

"Do you think this daily from 2 expansions ago would be on their priority list if it were current content?"

steel scarab
#

Great, then by that logic it should have been fixed by now

#

And we're in agreement

#

It's crazy that it's still broken

stoic spruce
#

They fix a bug and two more show up

#

Its just a fact

#

It's not being apologetic, it's being truthful.

#

Not an exaggeration

#

They do nothing and more bugs show up

#

And you expect everything to be sunshine and rainbows?

#

Lol

#

There was recently a bug with outlaws Blade Flurry even though absolutely no changes were made.

#

It just showed up

steel scarab
#

How long did it take for them to fix that

stoic spruce
#

How long did it take to fix a game breaking level of bug in a spec vs a daily from 2 expansions? Is that what you really wanted to ask?

#

Like that was going to prove a point?

steel scarab
#

No, I'm curious. Do you remember the Seal Fate bug from Vanilla?

stoic spruce
#

Sounds familiar

steel scarab
#

There are some bugs, I feel, that they add intentionally to test how things work. I think the OG Seal Fate bug was intentional

#

It became Mutilate

#

Seal Fate was erroneously adding an additional combo point more than it should have

#

Obviously this daily quest is not an example of that, BUT

river pollen
#

we still got a month

dense pumice
#

sub rogue right now is making me wanna take a break from my rogue til tww

#

43k evis lol

jolly sierra
#

does it even matter for rating which wont give u achivs?

#

in that case i think in a dagger

#

cuz shadow techniques

steel scarab
#

I think it's a willful example of not respecting the time of the playerbase. By essentially removing 1 of the 3 daily experience quests for the Ankoan allies, it not only wasted the time of people trying to figure out where the questgiver is and why he isn't appearing, but it also made the daily quest grind take 1/3 longer than it should have to max

HUUUUUUUGE

And I'm at 2400cr in 2s

anyone know what is randomly taking me out of stealth in pre patch?

did i miss anything?

there is one new quest that takes about 5 mins to finish that's it?

how does sepsis work? it feels so awkward but im p sure im using it wrong

Lord I hate this game

#

Killed a guardian druid 1v1 as we fought over a war supply crate. I guess this particular Horde Graveyard is closer than Alliance, because he ran back in time to interrupt me from opening the Crate, and the alliance GY was so far away I couldn't even come close to interrupting him the same way

#

Splendidly balanced gameplay

strange holly
#

So if im readig everyoe correctly sub rogujes got a buff i the expasionn? does that mea they are viable i pvp agia>?

gusty hedge
#

sub always been viable for pvp

wintry dew
#

Guys, most of you probably know if this but I'll share it anyway:

inner tartan
#

so i tried outlaw in pvp and umm help do i just mega suck or did they gut my fav spec

wintry axle
#

Anyone got some amazing tracking weak auras for assa pvp?

indigo hill
inner tartan
#

it is very very fun to play but will it be viable ( basicly will i be able to do my own thingy and get 2100 with pressing stuns or will i have to stop eating crayons and use those rare skills xd

indigo hill
#

Hard to say. If they dont gut the numbers, sure. I think the abilities should be good enough for 2100. Outlaw has had a few seasons where it was doing very well. I noticed that that is a bit of the Outlaw problem. Its never middle of the pack. Always seen it at the bottom or the top. Let hope for the top.

wintry dew
#

Let's remember that it seems that rn, in pre patch, armor values are extremely high, which makes every melee weaker.

#

Or something along those lines that Notrickz talked about

inner tartan
#

i think that was at the beginning of s4 or what not but i havnt realy been playing pvp sinse then

#

so im compareing outlaw to 1 season ago fresh after rework

indigo hill
wintry dew
#

Because physical DMG vs holy dmg

inner tartan

ret is stupid rn

but it normaly always is i think so shocker

Lifebound cap or engi head, what do you think?

wintry dew
#

It's whatever, be sure to have full mastery if eng helmet or vers/mastery in case of lifebound

potent pivot
#

Yeah that one’s kinda preference

wintry axle
#

Ill run engi head since im currently in need of more mastery than vers

Does anyone know the right outlaw pvp build in current pre patch?

potent pivot
#

outlaw is feeling very bad because of the armor bug

#

if you still want to play it i'd check out the most popular talents here^

indigo hill
#

Wouldnt play it now. I've tried and the spec is fun but does 0 damage

potent pivot
#

yeah it feels better on beta

#

armor bug just has it feeling like a mosquito

Sting like a mosquito lolol

Replaces sting like a bee

I’ve actually never been more let down on rogue gameplay going into this - my only saving grace is that xmog for s1 is πŸ”₯ πŸ”₯ πŸ”₯

I need all the variants

did u really liked etheral xmog?

#

its cool indeed but that much?

surreal barn

worthy crag
#

What is this "bullion" that I keep seeing in wowhead?

wintry dew
#

PvE currency that lets you buy weapons / special items from raids

#

and that can be upgraded to max mythic Ilvl

potent pivot
#

some pve items are good in pvp

crisp fossil
#

How viable is pvp for gearing up toons for tww? Bg grind/rated bg etc

wintry dew
#

There's a new event coming this next week, with catch up gear

#

PvP gear is always weaker than PvE gear, ilvl wise

potent pivot
crisp fossil
#

The pvp mogs and titles for solo rbgs interested me so was more curious how slow it is

#

And nah just to get ready for tww

#

I have a boosted warrior and a monk that's only 377 ilvll lol

potent pivot
#

well when tww launches there's going to be crafted pvp gear again i'm pretty positive

#

that'll be right below season 1 honor gear

#

but imo if you want to use your time rn to get ready, farm at least full honor gear

crisp fossil
#

Does it take long to get full honor gear?

potent pivot
#

buy whatever conq gear you can but don't feel required to do so

#

full honor gear can take like.. a few hours usually

#

if just spamming random bg's

#

once the new honor gear comes out after tww launch you'll be able to farm it with whatever gear, so what you get now isn't super important

crisp fossil
#

Bet. Solo rbgs are looking to be a lot of fun, all my other chars are remix so they can't be touched

potent pivot
#

it'll just make it a bit easier if you have honor gear from this season to begin with

crisp fossil
#

And ya it was mainly just to boost ilevel outside of the prepatch event , my monk died at one of the pre patch spots and I can't find out how to get back to the quest spot from where the gy was so I got frustrated and logged off lol

wintry dew
potent pivot
#

i think everything resets on new expac

#

because they'll send you gold to compensate you for taking your remaining honor

wintry dew
#

We'll probably have to farm the new "world pvp" gear and then go BG's once they open up

potent pivot
#

so i usually send honor boxes bare minimum to any ungeared alts

#

or i buy honor gear and vendor it for gold

#

i dislike farming world pvp gear ngl

#

wq's with full raid groups of people

#

annoys me kekdog

im really curious about getting 1k8 w the rog in rbg out season

vital socket
#

man does sub just not do dmg rn

potent pivot
#

it does

#

sub isn't about overall dps

#

it's somewhat affected by the armor bug atm, but not as bad as some other specs

mystic anvil
#

Yeah as long as sub still has the cc package it could do zero damage and it'll still be usefull

steel scarab
#

Have we figured out what is randomly knocking rogues out of stealth constantly?

#

And is that something that's getting fixed soon?

#

I'm getting kicked out of stealth in random BGs even in the starting fucking area

mystic anvil
steel scarab
#

Assassination feels absolutely horrendous currently

#

Stealth bug aside, I'm getting exploded from 41 yards while Mutilate and Fan crit for like 1/10 of a health bar

#

Combined with the idiotic removal of Acrobatic Strikes, I'm ready to reroll

#

Or uninstall

#

Deathmark is the weakest it's ever been and still peculiarly has a 2 minute cooldown (????)

mystic anvil
#

I miss vendetta, rn assass feels like old feral and feral feels like old assass

steel scarab
#

If Acrobatic Strikes was making PvE too easy, they should make it a PvP talent or something, but Jesus Christ this feels awful to play

#

Not to mention the fact that 5 of our PvP talents are garbage

jolly sierra

god dammit james not again

we played like this for like 15 years

Just won a rated BG, but not without a little hate mail from a healer lol

I send mail to someone on another realm when they talk smack and instantly /ignore

Bro you just gotta go there and do what you do, which is pumping

loud ember
#

Anyone got a good assa build for solo shuffle? Been trying the cleave build from Icy Veins but it just feels kinda off

#

The removal of Shadow Dance means I'm using vanish way more offensively which just ultimately makes me run out of energy with Depper Strategem suckin up my combo points

potent pivot
#

you should also only really be using 1 vanish offensively if you can you wanna try to keep 1 charge banked for defensive use

loud ember
#

Am I reading the vibe wrong or has assa just become a cleave only spec

#

I've tried some more single target focused stuff but it just feels lackluster compared to other specs

potent pivot
loud ember
#

god I wish I had the adderall addiction to play sub

#

my monkey brain cannot comprehend it

potent pivot
#

you just cc everything

#

ez

loud ember
#

It does feel like rogues are just CC when it comes to rated content

#

like let everyone else do the damage and you just CC healer on DR

#

land a cheap shot on kill target when your team mates burst is up

wintry axle
#

on retail or beta? because on retail assa damage is pretty dope if u set it up right.

#

for u sub players, how is it in the prepatch vs the beta?

#

is it viable?

wintry axle
#

Does anyone have a decent prepatch sub build?

tawdry imp
#

is sub rogue honestly this pvp dueling god like the world makes it out to be?

#

genuinely feel like I'm missing something with the spec

wintry axle
#

i've tried sub aswell, but assa is superior in prepatch atleast

untold remnant
#

If stamina changes continue, S1 will be dampen rot meta again. Although too early to say. Then, Assa will be best again probably.

potent pivot
potent pivot
loud ember
#

How are people playing assa then?

Fan of Knives for builder if you can hit +1 target, Keep rupture and garrote on kill target, indescriminate carnage to spread Mark of Death ruptures, garrote everyone during subterfuge and crimson tempest upkeep?

#

Thats damage rotation obviously

#

Am I doing it wrong?

wintry axle
#

crimson and snd aswell

#

oh u wrote crimson, but snd has to be in there.

wintry dew
#

Not mandatory

#

But good to have

wintry axle
#

I find myself dealing lots more with it up, but of course drop it over everything else.

loud ember
#

snd is sort of my "I have nothing else to press" button

#

or if anything else wold be wasted

#

i.e. they have a bubble or w/e

wintry axle
#

when do you prioritize envenom?

loud ember
#

when bursting, i guess. If rupture is up on the target

potent pivot
#

the only time you really press it is to refresh SnD, if you have nothing else to press
and when you're going for a kill, like after pressing KB

potent pivot
potent pivot
#

yes

loud ember
#

I does seem like the winning strat in solos is just do so much damage that the healer cant keep up

potent pivot
#

you're bleed ticks refund you energy on poisoned targets, which is also why you FoK when you won't break CC, you want them poisoned for energy and to keep Wound Poison up

loud ember
#

Ah that makes sense

potent pivot
#

shuffle atm is very much just spread as much damage as possible and spam CC

wintry axle
#

I find doing that and then going in for a KB burst is the way I win my rounds

wanton breach
potent pivot
#

if you see someone drop below 35% hp then you should shiv/KB them

wintry axle
#

has anyone tried an envenom build as assa?

spring bough
#

bro is in full HWL tier with the argent dawn tabard and the 2h axe lol

spring bough
wintry axle
#

best arena frames?

spring bough
#

gladiusex, gladius, gladius(bicmex version), or sArena

#

ive used all three but usually gravitate towards gladiusex

#

shows the ability the player just used, trinket cd, top defensives and offensive CDs, and you can resize and adjust it for a bunch of different alerts

wanton breach
#

gladiusex is suuuuuper buggy though and the features you described can also be done with other addons

loud ember
#

just use default blizzard arena frames, they just added a new one

#

im sure it's very informative and tracks all the info you need

spring bough
#

wait blizz actually updated that arena frame lol

outer sky
#

Blizzard needs to add a DR tracker to the base UI

#

its been a core mechanic since day 1

#

why 20 years later we need addons and weakauras for that I don't understand

spring bough
#

i love that diminish returns addon shows it on the nameplates

#

best addon for that and no need to look around

gusty hedge
spring bough
#

i have these giant icons over everyones head while playing lol

#

it does bug sometimes with rogue stealth and will miss a DR but its only on occasion

outer sky
gusty hedge
#

ahh say it aint soPogO

spring bough
#

oh boy how am i gonna pvp now

#

well back to getting yelled at "DR DR DR DR" lol

outer sky
#

none of the WAs work either they're all wrong

spring bough
#

even the one on this guys description?

outer sky
#

yep

spring bough
#

""Try "Teea DR Tracker" or "!SpizyPie - Nameplates CC + DR Tracker" for WeakAuras"

outer sky
#

yeah theyre both wrong

#

there's an addon I use called "nameplateccntrinket" and it works well but you need to know the spell icons for every CC in the game as well as what DRs with what because it doesn't show class specific icons. It shows the DR for whatever CC was most recently used on them

#

so if a warlock fears someone it will show the lock fear icon for the DR

#

and you just have to know that means they're on blind DR

spring bough
#

im gonna try this one

gusty hedge
outer sky
#

a couple weeks ago I tried everything available

#

they're all wrong

spring bough
#

sick lol

outer sky
#

the only thing that I found that actually shows the corect DR times is the nameplateccntrinket addon

spring bough
#

so use diminish till the day it doesnt load

#

and hope someone continues it before then

outer sky
#

i mean i hit 2725 rating with the addon I mentioned

#

you just have to learn the CC icons and what DRs with what

#

after you do that its extremely usable

surreal barn
#

Or hear me out

spring bough
#

i love when an entire rated BG teams up on two DKs who refused to pick up WSG flag even once

#

we wiped the enemy team every time we faced them. could have easily won. yet these two dks wouldnt even pick it up if u dropped it next to them lol

indigo hill
#

Big D dps dks. It's probably their only focus.

steel scarab
#

@outer sky hard agree

outer sky
steel scarab
#

That it is inexcusable that the base UI does not track DR when it's been a core part of pvp since it was implemented in 2007

tbh would wanna champion title, sounds chad af

Yo was off most of the week. Is outlaw still broken with armor issue?

waxen meteor
#

seems a lot of issues going on

#

bm seems to be doing negative dmg

steel scarab
#

Slight breakthrough

#

I noticed when I was constantly being knocked out of stealth last night I was wearing full pve gear, including trinkets

#

When I swapped to full pvp gear including pvp trinkets, it was happening far less often

#

I have no idea why the pve gear would've been causing stealth issues in battlegrounds though, since I never experienced those stealth dropping issues in mythic+

wintry dew
#

Probably due to the sarka cloak

steel scarab
#

Oh god, you're probably right

#

Does that happen in M+? Somehow I've never noticed it knocking me out there

#

But it would happen CONSTANTLY in pvp

spring bough
#

like if im on my horde character the title achieves for ally are greyed out but if i log on my nightelf i have all the titles lol

Is it pretty normal to have a 50% winrate in rated BGs but still be climbing in rank?

hey can anyone tell me why infurious footwraps are more popular than life-bound boots for sub rogues?

river pollen

is the extra vers better than getting mastery?

wintry dew

You have it on demand vs mastery emb

Which requires you to be above x% hp

river pollen
wintry dew
#

The power attached to infurious boots

river pollen
#

ohhh I understand now I didn't see that before thank you

but what if

#

i add the blue silken lining to lifebound boots?

wintry dew
#

You need to be above x% HP to gain the mastery value

Ohh yea true
