While im at it @spring bough what stats will i go? Crit or haste? Btw is ur ingame Name Like ur disc tag? I think ive played against u in a Blitz

spring bough
solar glacier
#

Whats the difference? Is there any Special synergy with either haste or crit?

#

One of them more aoe or st? Or does it even matter at all

spring bough
#

A lot of outlaw stack mastery and run it for MG. I like haste for the regen and the faster melee attacks since I play trickster

#

The more melee hits the more unseen chances

solar glacier
#

I see

spring bough
solar glacier
#

On murlok the top guys rarely go mastery tho

#

I seen one thats almost Full haste might have been u

#

Most Go Like Balanced between crit and haste

spring bough
#

They were at the start of the season stacking mastery. Meta must have changed lol

orchid plinth
#

Mastery is the Hipster Trickster Build 2ez

solar glacier
#

I think thats mostly to be able to Play the other specs

spring bough
#

I’m at like 13% crit, 21% haste and 25% verse unbuffed and regular ilvl before pvp boost

solar glacier
#

Its weird that Theres no consensus on Whats the generally best

#

Everyone is clear abt that for sub and sin

spring bough
#

Feels like it all works. Just player to player finding what they like best

#

I’ve done more crit than haste but I like where I’m at right now. Especially with dropping vigor for supercharger. Really helps with regen when adrenaline and bad buffs are up

solar glacier
#

Yeah thats true

spring bough
#

Plus my attack speed with all my buffs is probably sub 0.80 and that just leads to more unseen blade procs

solar glacier
#

I really dont know much abt OL looking forward to test it in bgb

spring bough
#

Get ready to smash buttons like a maniac

solar glacier
#

Thats np ive played fury before

#

And OL in m+

spring bough
#

Feels like I’m hitting even more this last week with supercharger lol

solar glacier
#

Do u stream

#

Like currently, tomorrow or so?

viscid dagger
#

What are the sub changes?

stoic spruce
#

Outlaw has a lot of ways to skin a cat

solar glacier
#

Gotta test it out

spring bough
solar glacier
#

Would be easiest to just have a second rogue tbh

stoic spruce
#

Howso?

spring bough
#

Two gear sets lol

stoic spruce
#

You can do that with one rogue

#

I have 4

#

On one rogue

spring bough
#

I do it for mine but just have two sets

#

Higher crit one or higher haste one. Not a mastery one tho

safe pelican
potent pivot
#

There’s like 2-3 that purposely have mastery

stoic spruce
#

May have a 5th soon idk

#

Prolly not

#

Not interesting in the game atm

#

Outlaw is boring

safe pelican
#

I feel that i take my dry spurts after i get the rating i want

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

I didn't even get the rating I wanted lol

potent pivot
#

He runs 10% haste and the rest crit

stoic spruce
#

I'm just bored of crackshot and being CCd during damage windows

solar glacier
jaunty osprey
#

I play control is king when there is literally nothing else to take 😭

stoic spruce
#

There's always something better than that

#

Take your cut for example

jaunty osprey
#

naw

#

Well as sin

#

Xd

stoic spruce
#

Oh

potent pivot
jaunty osprey
#

very meh LOL

spring bough
jaunty osprey
#

what’s new today, anything op yet?

potent pivot
#

Warr is going to be im sure

spring bough
stoic spruce
#

Hey guys

#

Crackshot windows are just fillers

spring bough
#

I still prio KS in subterfuge if it comes off cooldown

stoic spruce
#

It's cool we don't need it

spring bough
#

Same with coup. Prio that in subterfuges even over BTE

#

BTE never my top damage lmao

potent pivot
#

I mean that’s prolly why

spring bough
#

Yeah lol

#

Feel like KS and blades got more power. Blades can’t be CCd too

potent pivot
#

It’s just kinda wasting value of a powerful talent

spring bough
#

From a couple nights ago. Unseen almost did more than BTE

#

895k unseen blade PogO

potent pivot
#

Baiting the peel with Crackshot then sending KS would seem smarter

spring bough
#

I usually pop KS if crack gets CCd the second I’m out

potent pivot
#

Yeah I can sorta see that

#

Compared to just KS > Crackshot windows altogether

spring bough
#

It’s off cooldown all the time now

#

Especially with 10 combo point finishers juicing that CDR

potent pivot
#

You can keep both separate without holding much at all usually

stoic spruce
#

You KS in subt?

potent pivot
#

Ace procs can also be big

spring bough
#

Yes lol

stoic spruce
#

That's very bold

#

Even with rp?

spring bough
#

I also hit coup if I can before a KS for the extra finisher damage

#

A nice 5 flawless stacks before KS

#

Ontop of the 5-7 you probably already got

spring bough
stoic spruce
#

Ruthless Precision

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

roleplay

spring bough
#

Yea

#

I even reroll bones now when it’s off cooldown on any roll

#

Just for more supercharged combo points

stoic spruce
#

Yeah thats the general consensus

spring bough
#

I rerolled on 5 buffs that had 28 seconds left last night lmao

stoic spruce
#

Idk how i feel about it personally

boreal patio
#

Hey! I didn’t play for a few years
Help me please - how outlaw feels nowadays in 2s?

potent pivot
#

Yeah I mean that’s proper I feel

spring bough
#

It feels weird

#

But it’s more DPS to just reroll the second it’s up

potent pivot
spring bough
#

That’s why sleight of hand with the 15% inc chance for another buff is better I feel right now

#

Cause you’ll just be rerolling off the 2nd loaded dice buff within 5 seconds of getting it lmao

stoic spruce
#

It's just that the apm is so high that any global not spent on damage feels like a global wasted

spring bough
#

Yes

stoic spruce
#

This spec direction looks so bleak to me

spring bough
#

It’s press as many buttons as possible

#

So you can hit more BTE and KS lol

stoic spruce
#

7cp probably wasnt a good idea

spring bough
#

You mean 10combo points lol

stoic spruce
#

no

#

7cp max

spring bough
#

Yeah without charger. 10 with 😂

stoic spruce
#

no

#

double strategem

#

it does nothing but add to the problem

spring bough
#

I tried dropping the rogue tree DS for vigor and I did not like it at all lol

#

While keeping supercharger

stoic spruce
#

of course not

#

its designed to have 7cp

spring bough
#

Yeah so no other choice really if you wanna pump

stoic spruce
#

right but the point is that 7cp was a mistake

#

because now you have to take it and your cdr depends on it

#

which means uptime is even more important

#

its whatever though

#

people want to press buttons fast at the cost of having a dysfunctional spec

viscid dagger
#

Are there any good YouTube guides updated with 11.0.5 for sub? I just know the palumor one from launch

potent pivot
#

YT vids get outdated very quickly

jolly sierra
#

the same palumor

#

updated days ago some build, think stuff doesnt change too much from that

potent pivot
#

Depends on what it is

jolly sierra
#

was like his SL one shot build

#

totally nerf worthy

potent pivot
#

Nah his last sub vid was over a month ago

#

Def outdated at this point

spring bough
#

Would be nice to be relaxed while pvping for once 💀

stoic spruce
#

its stupid rn

jolly sierra
#

i was hallucinating then

#

i recall he did something for now tho

stoic spruce
#

I wish I am on when Realz is on so I can tell him because the others are too chicken shit to

#

act like everything is fine and then doom when hes gone

potent pivot
#

Well

stoic spruce
#

no

#

it happens every time

potent pivot
#

Idea bombing from everyone at once makes no sense

#

Happened a lot in the past when he first came to the disc

stoic spruce
#

im not idea bombing

#

its stuff that needs to be known

#

and said

potent pivot
#

Forums

stoic spruce
#

seriously

potent pivot
#

Are there for such a purpose

stoic spruce
#

and that purpose is to be ignored

potent pivot
#

Not saying don’t speak your mind if you see him pop in

stoic spruce
#

im not gonna go and ping him rn ofc

potent pivot
#

But I don’t think it’ll really help much compared to posting on the forums

stoic spruce
#

people have been saying it on the forum since last expac and its gotten worse

#

so idk

potent pivot
#

Saying what exactly

stoic spruce
#

about the uptime thing

spring bough
stoic spruce
#

lol yeah

spring bough
#

They went at the dude so bad lmao

stoic spruce
#

I know hes busy and has stuff to do so im not going to

#

I couldnt care less if I get grilled

#

smoked even

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

and i was warned for doing that ONCE

#

just ONCE

worthy crag
#

to be fair he and any other dev would know the game better than 97% of the playerbase

#

the suggestions ppl throw at devs is most of the times gibberish or borderline insanity

#

Frankly a waste of their work shift

gilded gulch
#

I mean tbf

#

outlaw has always been the redheaded step child

#

of rogue pvp specs

stoic spruce
#

I feel like saying "Outlaw will be in a bad state if the uptime issue isnt looked into" isnt too insane

gilded gulch
#

and for the love of god dont mention the meme that is

#

redbuff wod combat

gilded gulch
#

get red buff shadow reflection kidney killing spree

#

game wins for you

#

when i think about it

#

has outlaw ever been the best spec

#

without some abuse or cheese

stoic spruce
#

you need an actual burst to be the best

gilded gulch
#

its not designed to be a pvp spec

#

you have no burst

#

leather fury warrior

#

with more cc

stoic spruce
#

even Fury has a burst these days

worthy crag
#

competitively? Yeah its been best specs often

gilded gulch
#

When

stoic spruce
#

because of abuse/cheese

gilded gulch
#

besides stupid SL evasion cdr

potent pivot
#

It was good in bfa iirc

gilded gulch
#

nah bfa was sin oppression

#

entire expac after azerite got nerfed

worthy crag
#

you can call it stupid abuse or cheese but competition doesnt care

#

if that makes it the best spec then its the best spec

gilded gulch
#

bfa was rampant bfa sin rmpala

stoic spruce
#

thats completely invalidating the point tho

#

obv competiton doesnt care

potent pivot
#

Outlaw has also been in awc this season

gilded gulch
#

My point was has outlaw ever been the best rogue pvp spec

#

without a gimmick

stoic spruce
#

and the answer is no

worthy crag
#

I mean, how can you discuss "best pvp spec" without considering all parts of the spec

#

dust is a gimmick

#

feign death legendary in SL was a gimmick

#

gpyro and destro unbreakable root was a gimmick

#

Doesnt matter, either a spec is best or it isnt

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

and those specs have been the best without those gimmicks

gilded gulch
#

i mean gpy was mostly

#

a low rated thing

#

and i guess mlx

safe pelican
#

Idk look at sub now

worthy crag
#

Gpy was not a low rated thing lol

#

had full haste corruption stack mlx in competition all over

gilded gulch
#

i said outside of mlx

#

you did not play gpy as rmx

#

unless you were playing rm 2s

worthy crag
#

Yeah but we are talking about just "best spec" period

gilded gulch
#

but rm 2s players need to shower

worthy crag
#

You can discuss best spec and cherry pick which part of the design is an abuse or not

#

cant*

gilded gulch
#

its not really cherrypicking to say a talent was only good as a noobstomper

potent pivot
worthy crag
#

The only thing thatd count as abuse or cheese is flat out exploting a bug

#

like vanish sapping night elf druids in bfa

#

anything else is fair mechanic

safe pelican
#

No no i was saying in regards to Popo. I was saying look at sub now it’s definitely not the best spec after the nerfs to rebuttal what he was saying about the love outlaw has been getting

potent pivot
#

Ahh

gilded gulch
#

idk outlaw needs some love

#

its held up by goofy shit

#

💀

worthy crag
#

Im pretty sure cdews team was borderline exploiting a bug in blizzcon and they still got away with it, so anything less than that is just not even worth considering

stoic spruce
#

cant say that

#

that doesnt count

stoic spruce
stoic spruce
#

and outlaw has always worked, when its meta, in a cringe and toxic way

#

its never "oh it just does good damage"

#

theres always BS involved

gilded gulch
#

redbuff spree

#

tb reducing blind cd

#

shadowdust

#

xD

worthy crag
#

You can call it cringe and toxic but its just subjective

gilded gulch
#

Although you can still argue shadowy duel

#

is the most toxic pvp talent

#

rogue has

#

and is still ingame

stoic spruce
#

shadowdust wasnt outlaw design, its cringe BS that made it OP

worthy crag
#

Would I personally agree that they are toxic? Yeah but that doesnt rly change anythint when it comes to discussing whats best

#

Like

#

if there are 100 outlaw rogues competing

#

or even 100 wod redbuff combat rogs competing

#

At the end of the day its still the best one of em thatll come out on top

stoic spruce
#

yes

#

but we're discussing why

worthy crag
#

And CDR is just too valuable in competitive play

#

Otherwise ppl just calculate rogue moves down by the second

stoic spruce
#

cdr on defensives is lowkey insane for a spec to have in pvp

#

lets be real

spring bough
stoic spruce
#

and it belongs to the best class in the game

#

in pvp

spring bough
#

So much feint uptime

worthy crag
#

🤷 some will call it cringe some will call it amazing

potent pivot
#

it makes shit less predictable which is dope imo

worthy crag
#

Like how I could say kyrian spear is cringe and warrior mains would flip out

stoic spruce
#

its not about whats cringe or toxic

worthy crag
#

wdym? U guys are talking about "when has outlaw been best without cringe abuse or cheese"

stoic spruce
#

its about how a spec is designed, and then some random crap makes it good on the side

halcyon timber
#

Thoughts on Turkey bacon popo?

stoic spruce
#

never

spring bough
#

I think cringe and toxic are the two most overused and misused words

worthy crag
#

why is it a random crap?

stoic spruce
#

because if it werent, the spec would be designed with it in mind

worthy crag
#

umm what?

stoic spruce
#

tell me when outlaw is good

#

meta I mean

worthy crag
#

Right now?

stoic spruce
#

I can tell you why

spring bough
#

Right now lol. This last week it’s Meta to me

stoic spruce
#

outlaw is not meta

potent pivot
#

Define meta

stoic spruce
#

unless its still riding the bug abuse high

potent pivot
#

Trill Kalvish and whaazz are all playing it rn

worthy crag
#

It has had a showing in subsequent Awcs

spring bough
#

Just change ur perspective it is Meta to me lol

stoic spruce
worthy crag
#

Yes..? Outlaw has never been too far off the meta

stoic spruce
#

yes

#

okay

#

now

#

lets look into that

#

why is that

#

because its not tuned that great

worthy crag
#

??

stoic spruce
#

did I say it was bad

worthy crag
#

Enduring bralwer, cdr, reduced blind on a longer range etc

stoic spruce
#

here we go

worthy crag
#

I guess for SL

stoic spruce
#

"you said like pancakes, that means you hate waffles"

spring bough
#

That preseason nerf we got was the most unnecessary shit

worthy crag
#

im so confused

gilded gulch
#

SL it wasnt meta

#

until shadowdust came into the picture

stoic spruce
#

I played it before it was cool

gilded gulch
#

i mean it was a 2s hero spec mostly prior

#

and even then people ran venthyr blunderbuss more

worthy crag
#

Ok so what exactly was the problem when it was meta

#

Or are we still pretending that it was never meta

stoic spruce
#

brother

#

who said it was never meta

#

reply to it

worthy crag
#

When it literally is

stoic spruce
#

I want to see the message that explicitly says it was never meta

#

"it was never meta" and "not meta" are completely different

worthy crag
stoic spruce
#

ive been playing wow all day and ive yet to see another outlaw

#

thats arenas, bgs, wpvp, everything

worthy crag
#

Okay whatever, now can we talk about what the issue is when it is meta

stoic spruce
#

not a single outlaw

worthy crag
#

Okay and?

stoic spruce
#

thats not very meta

worthy crag
#

Does WW ever outnumber rets when its op?

stoic spruce
#

go ask ww

worthy crag
#

So your definition of meta is population?

spring bough
#

Tbh. In the last week I saw one other outlaw in rated

worthy crag
#

So if whaaz and trill play outlaw but if you dont see one in your 8 queues of random bgs, what do you make of it

stoic spruce
spring bough
worthy crag
#

Ok make it 15000 rounds of random bgs

#

how does it change anything

spring bough
#

I see supatease and Venruki more than outlaws

worthy crag
#

You realize some specs are by design destined to be less popular regardless of viability

#

like windwalker survival or outlaw because ppl dont buy the pirate fantasy

stoic spruce
#

yes

worthy crag
#

So why are we even talking about "not seeing a single outlaw" in a meta discussion

stoic spruce
#

this is so far from the original point

#

outlaw is never meta because its tuned good

#

there

#

thats it

worthy crag
#

okay, define tuned good

stoic spruce
#

what on earth could that possibly mean

worthy crag
#

Is it just FAIR damage that is unaffected by utility?

#

Because utility is idk, unfair and cheesy?

#

Since we somehow dislike dust, butterfly, brawlers endurance and short blind

stoic spruce
#

im thinking

stoic spruce
#

right now

#

for example

halcyon timber
#

Even the main man said Outlaw isn't "only pirate" and consists of more things.

stoic spruce
#

10cp finishers making evasion a 20 second cd

halcyon timber
#

defias , bandits, pirates etc

stoic spruce
#

thats an exaggeration obv

halcyon timber
#

more than "just pirate"

halcyon timber
#

doubtful

#

personal endevors aren't healthy

stoic spruce
#

in terms of neat animations

halcyon timber
#

liek the class hijacking

stoic spruce
#

what could be added to make it more interesting

#

in terms of animations

#

it can be low fantasy but have good anims you know

halcyon timber
#

There's enough particle density and meshes

worthy crag
#

Outlaw has had unique utility that makes it stand out from other rogue specs

halcyon timber
#

As an animator, it's a pain i nthe ass

#

not just a hehe do this pweeeze

stoic spruce
#

only thing it has now is short blind

waxen meteor
#

it looks like there's repair bug?

worthy crag
#

That also contributes its pick rate in competition, not just its dmg output

stoic spruce
waxen meteor
#

i am spending like 18 gold each time after a skirmish

worthy crag
#

Yeah but we were also talking about moments in the past

#

and at the end of the day every dps spec needs to bring dmg to be meta lol

#

not just rogues or not just outlaw

stoic spruce
#

now it has 18 second subt windows lolol

#

amazing

#

I like to think of the adrenaline shots from l4d2 everytime I open

upbeat bear
#

Hey recently got back to the game. What spec is performing better in ST raid?

#

tis not a question of if - only when - to ponder their inevitable sellout to p2w

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

I forgot all about it, I wonder if its good

worthy crag
#

T&N has advertised less predatory business model and I think they did deliver that somewhat

potent pivot
#

It looks pretty good ngl

worthy crag
#

But noone would seriously believe that will continue

#

its NC after all

potent pivot
#

There’s a little clunkyness from what I’ve seen

#

But the graphics look insane

#

And the open world and amount of players in the world without too many major issues is also kinda insane

worthy crag
#

so the word on the street is alot of warrs in shuffles now?

devout bear
#

so what's the tech for tomorrow when patch goes live on EU?

#

reroll to outlaw or reroll game?

Optimum has to be the worst internet company on planet earth. About to go to starlink over this garbage

spring bough
#

On the phone with three different reps to try and get my modem fixed

#

The one guy fixed it. Then told me once it was working to unplug it one last time. And now it’s not working again

#

Unreal

potent pivot
#

most internet companies seem to be absolute jokes these days

#

you basically just have to pick the lesser of the evils

spring bough
#

The thing is. I have no cell phone signal at my home. So I have to drive down the road to do this

potent pivot
#

i went from at&t with 50mbps down, NEVER DCing, just sometimes slow-ish speed. rarely notiveable at all.

#

to paying for 600mbps with WOW! and DCing a few times a day, drops to 5mbps many times a day

#

going to switch to spectrum or something very soon

spring bough
#

Optimum is my only choice they are a monopoly

potent pivot
#

oof

spring bough
#

They bought out the only other internet company that I was using

#

And they were exceptional

worthy crag
#

jesus

#

where do you live

stoic spruce

Literally my only option other than Hughes net

broken otter
# spring bough Unreal

Hey, I gotta log in like 3min. But this is a long shot.

Can you open CMD.exe and type "ping 8.8.8.8"

#

Does it reply with packets or does it fail to go through

#

Err well I guess if you have no cell signal and are in here with no net at home, you're down the road atm

#

But yeah, I gtg, but if it DOES work with "ping 8.8.8.8" and "ping google.com" fails, your Internet company is failing to set your DNS on router reboot.

You can bypass that in Windows by going to connection settings under ethernet

#

And set the DNS server manually to 8.8.8.8 (that's googles public DNS server IP)

potent pivot
broken otter
#

I mention this, cause my shitty boonies ISP does that too

#

Yeah, I'm in the PA mountains in bumblefuck

#

Happened to me this morning too. Was in a brawl and my Internet DC'd. Waited like 10min for it to come back up, before I busted out ping. Sure enough, they fucked my DNS again.

#

Anyways,I gotta go. Good luck.

#

I heard the internet is handled via carrier pigeon in the states

#

Plus you pay extra to feed them the good grains

stoic spruce
#

bite the bullet and get starlink

dapper chasm
#

Why can't you yanks just install the bloody fiber?

#

I get 2gb up/down with 1ms ping for about £40

#

Satellite is like outdated already

stoic spruce
#

one of our states is the size of a european country

#

theres sooo much ground to cover

dapper chasm
#

Bro, what does that even mean

stoic spruce
#

its fucking huge

dapper chasm
#

So is Europe?

#

We got fiber here

stoic spruce
dapper chasm
#

Yeah, they're comparable

stoic spruce

#

east coast is underwater

#

honestly good

dapper chasm
#

You realise that you haven't covered all of eu right?

#

Portugal is a country, I'm sickened to admit

#

Sweden is in Canada

#

Poor Swedes

stoic spruce

we still have alaska

nooooooo my yolk busted

Yeah, the one place with an excuse for infrastructure concerns

stoic spruce

now youre just trolling

Na, man, the fact is America is like in the stone ages

I see your game

bad teeth

dapper chasm

Sure

Back in 1910

#

But great one

stoic spruce
#

thanks

dapper chasm
#

I still can't believe you used a map of US over eu

#

US - empty space, the country

stoic spruce
#

well as a sub rogue, I have to make things simple for you

dapper chasm
#

No, I mean america is literally mostly empty space

stoic spruce
#

snot though

dapper chasm
#

I think you only gotta cover like 2-3 countries worth of fiber wire there

stoic spruce
#

if youre only doing cities sure

dapper chasm
#

Why do you need fiber installed for a single farm?

stoic spruce
#

because its 2024

#

and so many people still rely on sat internet

your priveledge is showing

Tried some outlaw for funsies with the 4xgrappling. The spec feels good to play, especially with the constant CDR when in fight. But... The damage seems extremely low. I know there's room for improvement (weird "rotation" with roll the bones, and ofc I'm geared mastery and not crit), but does it ever get to a point where it can put high pressure on enemies?

#

(I play blitz fyi, not arenas)

It shares the lack of mobility and survivability that sub suffers from, however the subterfuge change makes it possible to actually apply silence to all enemy team much easier, or use cheap/silence to control a healer for the kill.
The damage is there, but you have to hide when targetted and let your bleeds and team mate to do the work

Well I am talented for Kingsbane, but mostly roll with bg's and open world pvp.

vague comet
#

does "force cvars across all characters" mean same profile across all characters for better blizz plates?

#

i dont understand this setting

orchid plinth
#

It means that if you somehow reset your CVars it will set it upon logging in I guess?

#

But also when you logon a new character where you havnet set the CVars with BBP before it will be set.

Is Crimson Tempest a skill you need if you just do casual bgs and world pvp?

sub just such a trash spec now

not fun, zero options, super telegraphed cheese or nothing

jolly sierra

the nerf was expected

totally

#

and its clunky dependence too

wicked tide
#

i just hate them for ruining the spec

#

and putting no effort into making it fun

#

such a disapointment in pvp

#

not even about the flag nerf IDC about that jsut the way it plays is awful now

jolly sierra
#

sub has a very bad design since legion

#

lit depends from a lot of individual shit so be viable

#

if one of them is nerfed then the spec is dead

#

like what happened in SL with ER for s1

its not about it even being good or bad

its just not fun

we sit around doing nothing for way to long

is there a macro that stops you accidently spamming all 3 charges of Thistle Tea by accident?

or even Symbols of Death?

@long shore yeah. I’m not at home so I can’t copy paste but

#

I used a cast sequence macro

#

And I made the reset be however long thistle tea lasts, 6 seconds? Idk

potent pivot
long shore
#

thanks so much!

#

what is /cqs mean?

potent pivot
long shore
#

oh okay and what does reset=2 mean?

#

like delay 2 seconds or something?

potent pivot
#

Yea

#

Spamming the macro too many times will keep resetting the 2 seconds

#

Can make it act a little weird

#

But it won’t let you press Symbols or Tea twice in quick succession

long shore
#

yes this is really useful

#

i keep wasting charges

hidden moth
#

what website is this since supa isnt competent enough to link his sources

potent pivot
#

Obv you have to copy it and insert Tea instead of Symbols though for Tea itself

do you have a secret techniue macro no trickz?

Because sometimes I double symbols for superchargers

On purpose

#

Noob question. Should I craft a dagger and embolishment it as my first craft? Im a bit unsure what embolishment to run?

worthy crag
#

ppl are using double lens embellish

#

meaning your weapon is embellishless

jolly sierra
#

depends

#

but ye, ppl is mostly picking lens

old dome
#

Ah i see. Thanks alot for info!
Another question. How do people track garrote/rupture/envenom dots?

potent pivot
#

mostly on nameplates

old dome
#

Im trying to find a weakaura or something to make it easier.

potent pivot
#

betterblizzplates addon, default UI or some even use plater etc

#

WA is only going to show you what's on your target

#

plates show you what is on every target

old dome
#

Ahh I most look into Plater addon then.

#

Thanks!

potent pivot
#

but ye

old dome
#

Is this PvP focused or work in PvE aswell?

potent pivot
#

it works in both but its an addon that was made for pvp

old dome
worthy crag
#

Yeah thats the move overall

#

Just main hand tho

old dome
#

And conq dagger oh?

worthy crag
#

might consider crafting offhand too when conq gets uncapped but its not worth rn

#

Uhh

potent pivot
#

not until conq uncaps

#

you get free weapon tokens after earning 2500 conquest

worthy crag
#

True, ppl only crafted wep if they were playing pre week 3

potent pivot
#

the only people who really crafted a manhand dagger were playing from week 1 of the season

#

because you couldn't get the free tokens until week 3 anyway

#

but if you're starting late, just grind 2500 conq and you get free weps

jolly sierra
#

ye basically

#

but is stlll a nice choice

#

cuz u can have it w mastery

potent pivot
#

just a waste of currency rn

orchid plinth
#

You are losing out on two weapons by not using the free ones basically, since we are not fully geared yet from the conquest.

tranquil jay
#

SUB DED?

molten hedge
old dome
#

Okay so my gameplan is farm conq for gear and catalyst it and buy weapon for token at 2.5k conq gained

potent pivot
#

can also farm any quick bloody tokens possible for wpvp gear, helps the process a little

old dome
#

Im using blood token vers/mast cloak, bracer, gloves and belt. And im at 1.7k blood token saved.

#

Bare in mind im casual and back on rogue. Why im asking all this noob questions lol.

Tried outlaw today, after few years break and it feels .. so weak
No damage, no range to dance around, no mobility
Sadface

#

Feels like a half of arms warrior

lime oar
#

No mobility ….

#

4x grapple hook begs to differ

boreal patio
#

What the point of 4x hook?
U use it once to get to the target
Gcd, slow animation
Not even close with change+hook+shadowstep options

tawdry imp
#

i know pika thinks sub is not good right now but what do the rest think

#

sub players apparently don't use social media much

lime oar
#

Depends. It’s godly for Bgb. Talk to the outlaws on here. Most of them are 2.1+

boreal patio
#

Something like
Hook to the target>kidney>hook to another> vanish+cheap shot> burst?

That’s way too slow vs shadow step same shadowstep same

lime oar
#

Sub is cooked rn

#

I mean it def lets u punish bad enemy positioning. You* can cross the entire arena and back again lol

boreal patio
#

In that way may be, but one roots and now your position is bad )

lime oar
#

Yeah I get what ur saying. All pros and cons

worthy crag
#

sub is deaad

lime oar
#

The consensus has been all 3 specs are pretty decent but with this last tuning imo sub is not worth the effort, assa is prob the best but I think I might lean toward outlaw. more Survivability, sustained, PIRATE

boreal patio
#

PIRATE the best part)

lime oar
#

@gusty hedge recruit him.

worthy crag
#

As sub your globals only matter once every 90 seconds

#

aside from that I swear it doesnt even rly matter if you spend every gcd using shuriken toss and black powder

lime oar
#

@spring bough can also attest to outlaws dmg.

tawdry imp
#

sub needs more keys to press before you do stuff

#

maybe add two more spells that provide damage modifiers

potent pivot
lime oar
#

Shuffle struggle

jolly sierra
#

sub needs more consistent dmg like they did w rupture

#

or readd and promote hemo builds

potent pivot
#

you're making me die inside rn

jolly sierra
#

why dude

#

cata hemo build was good lol

potent pivot
#

sub just needs Dance CDR nerf reverted and a flat damage buff

#

boom i fixed the spec entirely

candid tide
#

is sub working now in pvp?

jolly sierra
#

depending of dance is not ok imo

potent pivot
#

it's 100% okay

jolly sierra
#

u dont need to depend entirely in an only thing

potent pivot
#

and it's what most people prefer

jolly sierra
#

or this happens

jolly sierra
#

preference =/= ideal

lime oar
#

Sub just needs to

potent pivot
#

what

lime oar
jolly sierra
#

or that

potent pivot
#

the only problem right now is like glab said

jolly sierra
#

xdddddd

potent pivot
#

you only do damage every 90 seconds

jolly sierra
#

assa w steroids

tawdry imp
#

what if the enemy notices you only do damage every 90 seconds 😮

potent pivot
#

because the spec is too weak without Blades AND Flag

#

even with both it's weak

tranquil jay
# potent pivot sub just needs Dance CDR nerf reverted and a flat damage buff

Either remove double dance and make it 30 sec cooldown 1 stack but last for 9 seconds. / or just rlly revert the CDR nerfs on dance

Make ambush / backstab actually hit again so you can have gos without dance(this shouldnt be lethal)

Remove the 23827 DMG modifiers you receive in the moment you press dance / symbol and give basic dmg

Remove shadowy duel so sub dont have to be gutted every single time because of this no counterplay interact when they have a oneshot

potent pivot
#

oh

#

my

#

god

jolly sierra
#

dunno ill eat a hotdog lol

potent pivot
#

i'm done with this convo i'm gonna get triggered by shit takes lol ttyl

worthy crag
#

I dont thinkt they are shit takes personally

#

there was a time when stealth was its own dmg cooldown and dance was only considered a dps cooldown by providing stealth

tranquil jay
#

Mines are not shit takes tbh

worthy crag
#

Dance itself giving a dmg amp was only put in Legion or bfa

#

I mean dark shadow was put in legion but noone took it, i dont remember exactly when dance gave dmg amp baseline

#

So like remove dmg amp from dance, buff default shadowstrike so stealth/vanish becomes its own dmg cd wouldnt be too bad

tranquil jay
#

it was SL

worthy crag
#

Ok so thats even more recent

#

Cant say alot about hemo build, I like sanguinary veins but eh

#

SL was rly the start of the infinite amp stacking then, and we could revert it tbh

potent pivot
#

why is it so white, a wrapping or something?

worthy crag
#

Even as recent as legion backstab did real dmg, ppl used to take gloomblade to upgrade it and kill pallies thru bop

#

the standard setup in wod was dance, vanish, dance, prep vanish on a 30 second interval

#

Ppl didnt need dance to land kills

tranquil jay
#

tbf i would like the removal of secret tech(or just make it not break cc Funfact: IN SHADOWLANDS it didnt break CC), remove dmg amps, buff baseline dmg (easier to balance), remove cdr nerf on dance.

Replace all dmg amps with some QoL talents, thats it

worthy crag
#

And ive always spoke for duel removal

tranquil jay
#

Duel is a cool spell, but if there is a cheese build which instakills you in duel its terrible for the game

worthy crag
#

Duel is the reason sub cant be balanced

#

Even now, as weak as sub is, ppl will die to duel+flag setups and complain

#

Which btw is like the only viable kill option left now lol

tawdry imp
#

shh they'll remove shadowy duel but make no other changes

worthy crag
#

Id honestly take it as a starting step tbh

worthy crag
#

Sometimes you just gotta hit rock bottom before you start ascending again

just dislike mayo on anything

jolly sierra
#

but ngl i hate avocado

#

and here is very common

#

w hotdogs

#

anyways but

i knew sub would die at first nerf

#

and that is a flaw in the spec design itself

potent pivot
#

the funny thing is that it didn't even need the nerf

jolly sierra
#

assa was nerfed a lot of times but would be still viable after that

#

are u fr

potent pivot
#

it wasn't doing nearly as much damage as day 1 on the patch

#

yeah i'm dead serious

#

it already wasn't good

#

legit

jolly sierra
#

ive heard a lot of stuff that sub is lit the best rog spec

#

until the nerf

#

and flag build was crazy

potent pivot
#

nah

#

day 1 of the patch it was

jolly sierra
#

CDR gone

potent pivot
#

whatever happened when supercharger broke and got fixed, caused us to do less damage than day 1

#

we went from doing 5m+ evis to barely 2.5-3m

jolly sierra
#

welp

#

ye, sub is depressing

#

seriously needs to be researched by devs

#

imo both assa and outlaw are ok balancing wise

#

but sub

how many times have us seen deadly nerfs for sub

#

si.

gleaming pawn
#

Assa should do more damage based on still being made of glass, but it’s damage is definitely not bad right now

jolly sierra
#

assa is pretty decent rn

#

and has a design to age like wine always in late patches

#

look at BFA, SL and DF

#

is always viable in late xp

lime oar
#

Yeah but with so much slows and micro cc it’s easy to fall behind on assa

#

Run out of cd’s

#

Stuck rp walking and getting farmed

jolly sierra
#

?

gleaming pawn
#

@potent pivot did I read it correctly earlier, assa is dropping supercharger and going back to deeper strat?

jolly sierra
#

most of dmg comes from rupture and garrote

jolly sierra
#

not other stuff

xd

potent pivot
#

i need to fix pins

#

can ignore assa pinned builds atm

jolly sierra
#

well going KB + CB now

i'm still not sure about that

Worth it to craft 639 dagger for correct stats instead of buying one? Already used 2500 conq tokens on 1 sword 1 dagger but mostly playing assa now

just use the conq dagger you already have in mainhand

Currently questioning whether to buy a second 639 dagger or insignia instead of badge

potent pivot

craft an honor level dagger for offhand, or use a wpvp dagger offhand

I reckon that my 3 possible buys would be second 639 dagger, 639 medallion or a 639 insignia

medallion
