there's people at that rating who don't know how to play their spec, let alone the BGs

cmon blizz announces end season

#

i wanna push w the main

indigo hill
#

I got 11% left on the vicious saddle bar. Ill just do Shuffle instead.

#

Not sure wich mount to get though.

jolly sierra
#

i ended destroying all my saddles

#

when you play for exps pvp you will have them wasting space

#

as you already got all mounts

lone goblet
jolly sierra
#

cuz if would be for gold (5k or so) then problem solved

#

as they are mildly hard to get

lyric haven
#

Whats the easiest spec to learn rogue pvp? im trying out outlaw and having a hard time

potent pivot
lyric haven
#

mb

potent pivot
#

but the answer you'll get from most people is assa

#

while assa has more intricacies than outlaw, it doesn't depend as much on high uptime

#

outlaw relies on CDR and uptime, and is higher APM

#

rogue as a whole is one of the hardest classes in pvp, so you just have to pick your poison and practice

#

all 3 specs take time to get good at

latent berry
#

the difference between skill for each spec for rogue is probably marginal if any is easier

lone goblet
#

MMV over 2700 now, rating only 1800.

#

Something seems wrong with this system.

potent pivot
#

the rating gains per win are just capped

#

the bracket is just hyper inflated

lone goblet
#

So all I need to do is grind enough games for my first ever 2400? lol

potent pivot
#

pretty much yeah

#

your mmr/cr will even out over time

#

and put you "where you're supposed to be"

lone goblet
#

Can't wait to be able to say I'm elite level pvp.

#

And can look down on all those duelist noobs.

#

cant in biltz u havt like way more loses then wins and sstill be like 2k

inner tartan
#

u wont believe how many times i do solo shuffle and forget to put posions on

potent pivot
#

get a poison WA lol

inner tartan
#

im outlaw so atlest it some what ok if i was sin and did it i might need to reroll

potent pivot
#

i can't play without poison/raid buff reminders

inner tartan
#

i think my friend gave me one cuz we kept running 3s and i kept forgetting 🙂 i just have downloaded it yet

#

no wait i might have

#

i dunno

#

soon i will log on a roque and check but also i keep doing pvp with instant posion and pve with wounding posions

#

i cant win any more : (

potent pivot
#

lmk i have a good one i can give you

#

you can click it to apply them

inner tartan
#

ooo yes please

potent pivot
#

i think i swapped instant poison to "never load"

#

because i don't really pve anymore

#

but that can be changed pretty easily

inner tartan
#

i mean in pve it barely a dps lose for outlaw i think

potent pivot
#

yeh but it's still better than wound kekdog

potent pivot
#

there's the import string

inner tartan
#

ty ty

#

after this solo import and test

potent pivot
#

the instant poison is Loaded for outlaw

#

but it clears after applying wound

#

and vice versa

inner tartan
#

oo ya ok

#

bingo

whats up guys

#

what are the general thoughts on rogue PVP spec tier list/relative performance to each other? I was trying to find information on the best PVP spec and landed on outlaw but it's been pretty underwhelming to me

potent pivot
#

tier lists are a pretty crappy way of judging things in this game really

#

all 3 specs have their own playstyles, strengths and weaknesses just like all of the other specs in the game

#

at the end of the day they're all really good, try them out and play the one you like the most

keen magnet
#

i love how simple and good sub feels in pvp

#

but then looking at pve its the complete opposite

#

wish they'd make it easier to play in pve

potent pivot
#

i think a lot of people would say the opposite kekdog

#

that's actually kinda curious to see

toxic mural
#

Sub is kinda simple to play, In bgs. In arena tho, man that’s hard! But then, aren’t all spec simple to play in bgs
@keen magnet

indigo hill
#

Btw i don't know if anyone knows this but the war crates in DF zones drop the same amount of honor and conquest as the TWW ones. In case people want some extra without opposite faction competing over it.

potent pivot
#

yeh only issue is that sometimes they don't spawn quickly

potent pivot
#

tru

outer sky
#

I'm so done with people in shuffle

#

I just had a pally flame me for "being afk" because I stood behind a pillar to re

#

for like 10s tops

#

so the next match he was on my team i said "this is what being afk looks like"

stoic spruce
#

You can't blame him tbh

outer sky
#

and just left my laptop for the whole match

#

hopefully he could tell the difference so he doesnt mistake the two again

#

always tryna do my part to help

stoic spruce
#

How is he supposed to know?

outer sky
#

he was 2.7 he knows what a rogue is doing when they run behind a pillar

#

but if he didnt know, he does now

stoic spruce
#

Okay but he's literally a ret

outer sky
#

hpal

stoic spruce
#

Close enough

outer sky
#

i just dont care, man

#

its a 20 year old game

#

im not taking attitude from these people

#

i'll cut off my nose to spite my face

#

yeah I afk'd and lost a match

#

so what

#

at least he knows what going afk looks like now

#

fuck him

stoic spruce
#

Pov: you see the pally under rubble

gleaming sentinel
#

i hit 2386, and managed to tank back to 2100. double hpal sp/bm/fury just kicks my butt. need to lock in today and regain dignity

outer sky
#

if you see 2 pallys just /afk

indigo hill
#

Bubble got a bit OP imo. Next to the already stupid damage they can do.

Yo! What's the best embellishments to go for subtlety rogue these days? 👀

#

Dual focusing lens? Or writhing + ascendance

potent pivot
devout egret
potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

almost doesn't do dmg if is cornered

devout egret
potent pivot
#

you can just copy the most popular stuff here

#

just

#

save replacing daggers for last

#

well you're gonna have to get quite a few pieces crafted

#

but you've got full conq gear so it won't matter the order you do

devout egret
potent pivot
#

running 3 pieces doesn't do anything, that's just a difference in item people use to make up their 2 set or 4 set that you're seeing as a "3rd" piece

potent pivot
devout egret
#

yeye, I know there's not like a 3-set bonus different from 2-set. I guess it's just to optimize the right stats Shruge

potent pivot
#

nah

devout egret
potent pivot
#

it's just the people using 4 set making the 3rd piece look 'popular'

#

with ~20 ppl using it or w/e

devout egret
#

oooo right. So people don't actually use 3 set, it's just the average between 2 set users and 4 set users making it seem like people use 3/4

winter seal
#

getting somewhere

devout egret
potent pivot
#

but those 20 ppl using 4 set all take chest

potent pivot

#

i swear blizz didn't want me to win one last night

#

5 games in a row my team had 5/6 bottom cr

potent pivot
#

be like that sometimes

gleaming sentinel
jolly sierra
#

ret an HPAL are an awful combo anyways

#

because they slaps each other in the forbearance

#

so if for example the ret wants to use spellwarden but the dumbass hpal uses bop, they wasted each other cds doing that

gleaming sentinel
#

im just bad, idk

jolly sierra
#

when i go w my ret i always get mad on the hpal

#

because they uses bop on me when there are casters

#

or a lay on hand

#

when i was holding spellwarden for myself until the moment

#

so i lose the shuffle (this is pre forbearance nerf when you weren't able to use bubble into it)

lone goblet
#

Does anyone else get frustrated when your teammate casts Cyclone? I hate seeing druids more than anything in shuffle because of cyclones sabotaging my play.

jolly sierra
#

yes

#

i do

#

they does it into my deathmark

agile venture
#

is outlaw any good for rbgs/blitz/3s? or should i just focus on sub/sin? pepeHands

#

(currently outlaw, but it's a bit chaotic)

lone goblet
#

Outlaw gets back defensive cooldowns really fast, but doesn't have as much kill potential.

#

I mostly see assassination and sub in games.

indigo hill
#

Outlaw is an underdog and not played as much as the other two. It's fun though and has potential to do well.

gleaming sentinel
#

I’m committed to getting good at outlaw, but I’m really having some growing pains in shuffle for sure.

neon spade
#

Do envenom crits hit for less then normal on the pvp dummy? getting some wierd numbers on it

inner tartan
#

i dunno i find outlaw more ez cuz ur more tanky so can be more stupid

#

but im terrible at sub

#

like so so sooo bad lmfaooo

hazy monolith
#

sub feels so weird coming from outlaw

#

I think im more of a brawler type player

inner tartan
#

good to know some one else had issue or felt weird with it

inner tartan
#

zug zug

hazy monolith
#

feels very slow haha

#

grappling hook is insane in that regard

#

shadow dance feels unintuitive for me

inner tartan
#

grappling hook is da best ability

#

the one season kir builds for pve would take it sucked and i only played that build for one raid season

hazy monolith
#

yeah best movement ability in the game imho

inner tartan
#

harpoon for surv hunter is close but like a rip of worst verson

hazy monolith
#

vengeful retreat of course is insane but besides that

#

only with glimpse tho

inner tartan
#

tbh i have never played dh aside from leveling one on mop remix and that was only like 30 minutes of dh then opening mail

hazy monolith
#

xD

inner tartan
#

i should level it 2 80 send it conquest boxes and see

#

i have 80 conquest boxes in my warboxes and i geared a warlock another monk and another rogue last weeked so i should change my classes around a bit

hazy monolith
#

still my fav class in terms of fluidity and overall gameplay

#

its just round af

inner tartan
#

are they still super tanky

hazy monolith
#

nah

#

not tanky anymore

inner tartan
#

rats

hazy monolith
#

aldrachi reaver kinda is

#

but lacks throughput

#

the heroclass spams a lot of souls

#

so selfhealing is good

inner tartan
#

later i will level mine cuz for pve i ment to test all the tank out for next season

hazy monolith
#

yeah good idea

#

i have every class 80, even multiple

#

dh and outlaw it is

#

feels best for me 😄

inner tartan
#

i have like 20 rogues a few monk and then druid and hunter

hazy monolith
#

20 HAHAHA

#

you beat my 7 dhs

inner tartan
#

we dont even wont 2 count my 70s

stoic spruce
#

bring her BACK

#

that way I can drop haste and put it in more mastery

hidden dome
#

With that only 3 classes left. Druid, DH and Evoker

inner tartan
#

why dose outlaw mastery have to scale so nice my pvp mastery haste outlaw in pvp settings can hold 57 precent hast about for full fight mastery unprocs stasy at like 87 percent with procs go up to 100 and something percent

inner tartan
#

bad

#

zzz

#

tbh was fun line up with dreadblads

#

but no

stoic spruce

I encountered a problem. It has been going on for several weeks. Periodically I can't go into invisibility (use stealth), although I'm not in combat - the button is inactive.
For instance, on this screenshot you can see a beginning of solo shuffle - stealth is unactive. I cannot be in combat there.

inner tartan
#

is ur stealth a macro

#

ikf so broken macro

bright timber
inner tartan
#

oo

#

dunno i pplay alot of orgue and never got that but mostly outlaw so

gusty hedge
#

bind your special action button 1(Stealth) to your stealth key bind
you can tell its a macro because the wording, if it was just bound, it would have the key bind
if you prefer t ohave stealth on your bar as you have now and not special action button, remove it from your bar and re add it from your spell book then bind it

potent pivot
bright timber
potent pivot
#

That’s strange

#

Strange that it’s not working I mean

bright timber
#

A similar problem, but with a druid. Watch from 5:15

potent pivot
#

have you tried using a macro

#

like maybe a macro will work

#
#showtooltip Stealth
/cast !Stealth```
gusty hedge
gusty hedge
#

macro will be better actually since it wont take u out of stealth if u press it multiple times

bright timber
#

Thanks, I'll give it a try

mystic pasture
potent pivot
#

well dummies just aren't optimized properly, you should do more damage to them with most abilities

#

i just know from random dummy testing that envenom does more to dummies than it does to players

#

he mentioned crits so it could just be that he's only seeing the 175% crit damage that we have in pvp baseline, if he doesn't realize that crit damage is nerfed in pvp

wraith tangle
#

I belive pvp dummies do not take into account pvp modifiers. It is very clear on SP´s abilities Entropic Rift and Collapsing Void. It is nerfed by 60% in pvp. Highly buffed CV hits around 2m on pvp dummy, but around 1m on player. Same goes for rift.

potent pivot
#

it seems very random which modifiers they have applied

#

there's definitely some abilities that are modified on them, but there's also some that aren't

#

the biggest difference that applies to every ability is that the dummies have no vers

indigo hill
#

If you want more accurate numbers from pvp dummies I suggest going against bm hunter or fury warriors.

rose wigeon
#

for assassination in blitz what makes you all choose deathstalker vs fatebound? I mostly play deathstalker since I was used to it from pve but noticing alot of fatebound gamers in the Qs

potent pivot
#

it can be annoying in BGs

#

can be annoying in any content really, just more noticeable in BGs

#

damage ticking into Singular Focus will keep you in combat, so it will break stealth

rose wigeon
#

Yeah i have def noticed that, im only 2.5 or so in blitz so i havent really thought much about it till today i looked it up and realized most rogues in the top 50 are fatebound, that totally makes sense

#

appreciate the answer, ill test out some fatebound Qs and see how it feels

potent pivot
#

26 FB vs 24 DS lol

#

in the end i don't think it matters very much

rose wigeon
#

yeah thats why i was curious, it isnt like a landslide choice so i figured there must be logic for both, choosing the QoL of no stealth bugging for fatebound makes alot of sense, i usually just meld to force a stealth when i get stuck lol

potent pivot
#

they're both decent enough, FB is a bit worse for damage/defensive usage, but it's not a huge difference

agile venture
#

ive been looking over outlaw rogues @ https://murlok.io/ and im kinda lost. why are they using 1h + dagger? most of them arent using shiv. is it to get crippling poison up faster?

potent pivot
#

so you apply wound/crippling slightly faster

#

it's technically more damage or w/e

#

but the difference

#

is so insanely tiny

agile venture
#

ok, so there isnt much that im not seeing

#

ty!

bright timber
potent pivot
#

that's strange

#

i guess i would just report it as a bug

pliant mauve
#

Was totally unaware of this dumb Ret change for 11.1. Is there a range to their spectral sight or can they see you anywhere in the arena?

snow mesa
#

and running fast OH doesn't matter

potent pivot
snow mesa
#

wtf

#

is the difference like 100 dps or

potent pivot
#

“Matter”

#

It’s .2% dps

snow mesa
#

do daggers have less stats or

potent pivot
#

Give or take a bit

#

No

snow mesa
#

ah alright

#

interesting

potent pivot
#

Some people run 2 swords regardless for transmog

snow mesa
#

as they shou;ld

#

daggers are ugly

potent pivot
#

It’s a very minor thing

#

Weird opinion alert

snow mesa
potent pivot
#

I like 2 daggers/2 swords as well

snow mesa
#

well yeah

#

I agree with that

#

2 daggers 2 swords

#

not 50/50

potent pivot
#

But you still see some sub rogues running a mace offhand for transmog these days

snow mesa
#

yuck

potent pivot
#

Even though it’s a MASSIVE dps loss

snow mesa
#

cough pshero

potent pivot
#

It’s fine on classic

#

But very bad on retail

snow mesa
#

nah he ran it on retail too

potent pivot
#

He prolly just doesn’t know

#

Uninformed

snow mesa
#

probably because he's classic andy

#

he's not bad at retail but yeah

#

he's full on classic player

hazy monolith
#

can we delete boosting healers from the game?

#

shits sooooo lame

#

hpal not using 1 bop over three rounds

#

not 1 dispell

indigo hill
#

Might just be a shit healer.🤷‍♂️

hazy monolith
#

i dont think hpals at 2300mmr forget to use bop for 3 rounds

potent pivot
#

you'd be surprised

#

but

#

there's def win trading also going on as usual

hazy monolith
#

I even told him

#

got laughed at

#

so I assume win trading

potent pivot
#

who was it

hazy monolith
#

Crupth-Outland

#

eu

potent pivot
#

oh, eu

#

was going to show you this

#

couple hpals doing pretty obvious trading

hazy monolith
#

thats how the games ended

potent pivot
#

like if one of the dps 6-0'd, did they play properly when that dps was on their team

#

that's really the only way to tell

#

if they sucked all 6 rounds then they might just suck

hazy monolith
#

i wouldnt post then

normal zealot
#

Is there anything worth doing with forged glad equipment after i upgrade to the crafted ones?

#

Should i just disenchant the old stuff that i dont need?

potent pivot
potent pivot
#

either way we'll start getting rid of this season's gear once we start farming honor gear next season

normal zealot
#

So the crafted pieces will be trash next season?

#

(the current bis gear)

potent pivot
#

it'll be replaced by honor gear

normal zealot
#

oh... lol

potent pivot
#

ye

normal zealot
#

so im just wasting resources now huh

potent pivot
#

not really

#

conquest and shit resets

normal zealot
#

Oh okay

#

didnt know that either

potent pivot
#

honor carries over

#

but that's it

normal zealot
#

I see, tyvm @potent pivot

hazy monolith
#

another pos

normal zealot
potent pivot
#

anytime i sit more than double the avg wait time i usually just re q

jolly sierra
#

were you guys debating about the dagger/sword sub dillema in retail?

#

you clearly know the answer for that, and its shadow techniques, that is the reason u guys are running off hand daggers, period

potent pivot
#

sparked a conversation about offhands LUL

normal zealot
jolly sierra
#

in SL i used the mythic+ versa/haste tirna scithe dagger with honor ilvl

#

just cuz it had haste

#

xddd

potent pivot
#

ye but agi is still the biggest stat

#

it doesn't calculate into weapon dps but the ilvl still matters

jolly sierra
#

ye, i know

#

but in SL haste was the thing, sadly

potent pivot
#

the thing with outlaw is that dagger OH procs poisons faster

jolly sierra
#

so i needed it

#

yep, it hits faster so it procs faster but

#

can't you force it with shiv?

potent pivot
#

i don't think haste was ever worth running less agi >_< but to each their own :p

potent pivot
#

most outlaws aren't even running shiv this season tho either kekw3

jolly sierra
potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

it turned a little sassy on my server

potent pivot
#

lmao

jolly sierra
#

and even was unwilling to hear us, so i muted it and turned rebellious

#

it said "you can mute me but when i come back i will go as always, i don't care, i can wait"

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

can you believe? its even harder to beat than a 2k4 player, as you need to persuade it

potent pivot
#

dunno, i've never messed with any of the AI things tbh

normal zealot
#

Do all these speed enchants really make a difference?

potent pivot
#

more speed can help lead to higher melee uptime

#

there's so many slows and shit in pvp

#

the biggest one is the wrist (+1k)

normal zealot
#

it might be because its nuanced?

#

idk whats happening 70% of the time anyways lol

potent pivot
#

well unless you're looking at examples side by side

#

or running, taking off the pieces and running again you're not gonna really notice

normal zealot
#

Hm i see

potent pivot
#

all the enchants don't even add up to 10% iirc

#

but we even run speed talents where applicable because speed is kinda important

normal zealot
#

So higher speed reduces the amount you are slowed by in pvp as well, from what i understand?

potent pivot
#

you don't necessarily realize it because it's not like Sprint, it's just a constant +X%

potent pivot
normal zealot
#

When i initially saw that +1000 speed i thought i was going to zoom around tbf

normal zealot
potent pivot
#

you're raising the baseline which gets reduced

normal zealot
#

Ah okay i understand

potent pivot
#

+1k speed is basically 5% speed

#

iirc

normal zealot
#

oh okay, not to bad

potent pivot
#

rogue is already faster than other classes baseline as well

#

we've got Fleet Footed in the class tree for +15%

#

outlaw has another +15% with Hit and Run

normal zealot
#

I assume its also stealth related (the whole speed buffs we get)

potent pivot
#

wdym

#

the only one that's tied to stealth is Shadowrunner i think

#

fleet footed is just baseline +15% all the time

normal zealot
#

I thougth normally movement speed is slower in stealth compared to when unstealthed

agile kite
#

I have some assa pvp questions if anyone can help

#
  1. I only crimson if it can hit more than 1 right? or is it still worth it for ST in arenas
#
  1. In opener, garrote spam is worth it? is it just for the CC or damage too? even worth doing on like a warrior?
#
  1. Do I have any kiting ability besides running away and vial? is it just best to save vanish for if they go on me
potent pivot
normal zealot
potent pivot
#
  1. garrote spam is usually okay to do for combo points or the silence, personally i don't spam it a lot for just combo points in most cases but some do. but yes silence only really hurts ranged
#
  1. you can shadowstep your healer/other dps to get away, you can LoS, etc. you usually won't save vanish for defensive use, but it definitely doesn't hurt if you can use it defensively and then turn it into offensive usage
agile kite
#

@potent pivot thank you so much! one last question, for biggest burst, its just having garrote, rupture, vial, deathmark, then popping envenom into thistle tea / shiv?

#

thansk again

potent pivot
#

vial?

agile kite
#

oh no vial my bad

#

meant to say crimson temp

potent pivot
#

CT isn't necessary if trying to burst 1 target

agile kite
#

is the rest basically right?

#

feels like sometimes i do lots of damage, other times little, im guessing its just if my enemies stack in arena

potent pivot
#

basically, yeah. but i'd shiv/tea before the envenom

#

envenom gets buffed by both

agile kite
#

of for mastery before pumping, kk

#

oh*

potent pivot
#

also make sure you're applying your Mark with ambush at some point

#

if running Deathstalker

agile kite
#

the only things that pops that mark is envenom right?

potent pivot
#

IC makes garrote/rupture cleave, then you've also got CT etc

potent pivot
agile kite
#

so sorry to do this, what is IC and CT

#

this is like day 3 of rogue for me

potent pivot
#

the only thing that consumes Darkest Night is max combo point envenom

potent pivot
#

CT is crimson tempest

agile kite
#

oh holy shit darkest night is how you keep it up

potent pivot
#

yep

agile kite
#

im doing shuffle half geared rn and havent gone negative so trying to learn on the go lol

#

thank you again

potent pivot
#

Someone made a cool site for learning all the pvp relevant abilities^

#

Pretty cool

severe helm
#

ooo neat

#

very useful

potent pivot
#

mhm

#

i think it even has a quiz-like function

vocal isle
#

Has anyone here tried dracthyr rogue? Do their racials bring some useful utility in pvp to you? Regen, glide and knockback seem nice on paper.

potent pivot
#

the racial glide doesn't make you move any faster than normal so it's moot

vocal isle
#

out of combat health regeneration

potent pivot
#

and while a knockback might sound good, we're still a melee

vocal isle
#

i imagined glide as an option to resist forced movement if you don't want to waste shadowstep for it

potent pivot
#

i'm not seeing the health regen thing, maybe it's evoker only (?)

#

but the main issue isn't really dracthyr racials

vocal isle
#

it has that racial in visage form, not as a dragon

potent pivot
#

it's that night elf is way too strong to give up for anything else

vocal isle
#

Yeah, night elf is still bis, but i play horde

#

And wonder if it has some sense swapping from orc to it

#

In the next patch i don't even have a single idea how to play sub without veil and duel. Only if tier sets will give a big damage increase, but still will feel like a one trick pony with only one option to kill when burst is ready.

severe helm
#

it would only be marginally useful in bg blitz

#

in arena dracthyr is completely irrelevant as a rogue tbh

vocal isle
severe helm
#

I mean you can always just play whatever is fun

severe helm
#

kul tiran is very strong for obvious reasons

#

NE is still one of the best in blitz as well

stoic spruce

If you ever want your racial to break your stealth, go undead.

i remember how i been scammed with this one

didnt know that priest can go into spirit not by death :x

indigo hill
#

Some ravials have usefulness in certain bgs. Speed boost helps in flag carrying. The dractyr knockback is nice in arathi LM. But it's all very niche.

formal pebble
#

Regen is kinda nice but dragon swap sometimes in bugs out and manually swapping to human pulls you out of stealth

glide on drac is only useful if you're in wpvp and get knocked mid air or anything where your glider is on cd. the knock back is meh, kultiran is better plus stun, but drac knockback is good for multi target(unless they changed it) the glide is reduced for all specs except evoker so using/moving on ground reduces your movement speed( better to run without trying to jump into glide). Whats cool about drac rogue is you are a flying machine kekdog

Can you imagine how it would have gone if we took him

1k cr

#

and we'd ofc lose every game

cuz he has no gear

#

and my lock and I would lose over 20 rating per loss

#

and he'd be flaming us the whole time

#

God I'm pissed off just thinking about it

Ain't like it's a new mechanic

i was at 1700 he left i think on second game i dont think he even had 2 mill health

I queued a skirm a month or so ago and the mage on the other team had like 800k health so I just opened from stealth with Kingsbane and killed him

lol

#

there a ambush bug with outlaw that i think if u 1 shot kill something with ambush u stay stealthed u should have seen if it would work but that might be only outlaw and only pve

It works with shadowstrike on sub too

I do think it's just on pve though

dying wth cds?

hazy monolith
#

boosting

potent pivot
#

it's not always boosting just because someone dies while healer has CDs

hazy monolith
#

sure

potent pivot
#

it'll be very apparent by how much healing is being done or if they afk when 1 person in particular isn't on their team

hazy monolith
#

he presses nothing because he cant find the button and breaking sap is also just a coincidence when the other rounds he used everything

#

you dont have to play devils advocate here haha

potent pivot
#

i'm not

#

just saying, accusing folks of boosting, when it isn't very apparent that it's going on, isn't right

hazy monolith
#

it is very apparent

#

having 4 defensive cds leftas a healer

#

is VERY apparent

potent pivot
#

it isn't though

hazy monolith
#

like I said, youre playing devils advocate

potent pivot
#

no

hazy monolith
#

and some whataboutism on top

potent pivot
#

i'm saying that accusations without solid proof is fucked up

#

and should be left out of here

hazy monolith

lmao

#

look at the pictures

potent pivot
#

like the video i linked to you

#

from venruki showing very obvious win trading

#

i'm all for making people aware of cheating and win trading 100%

hazy monolith
#

maybe they were just overwhelmed by venruki in this video?

#

maybe thats apparent

potent pivot
#

but just linking that they had defensives when they lost is not enough to throw around accusations

hazy monolith
#

well ill tell you the rest

#

you dont have to believe me

potent pivot
#

i'm not unwilling to hear you out or anything

hazy monolith
#

i told u they were just not pressing on purpose

#

there was no sick setup going on

#

ppl just died because of nothing

potent pivot
#

what did their healing look like on details for the rounds

#

and the score board at the end can also give a lot of context

#

i'm really not trying to play devil's advocate, it's just the sometimes people really just aren't good at the game. not that i do or don't believe you, just that more context helps

Can only imagine that MW does not want to carry the flag. They will get matched opposite other MWs (likely who do FC)

because "you get more points if you just hold flag"

terse thicket

There are some material explaining pvp and pvp skills, like, LOS, fake cast, chain CC and others that I'm not aware, and correlate it with ranking?
Something like, 1600 should now how to open, pay attention to CDs, etc... 1800 gotta also know how to x, y and z
I was really happy that I got to 1600 but I realized that 1600 is something that everybody eventually can reach, so, now I'm trying to go for 1800, but I don't know exactly what to work on, what should I improve?
And another question, how do we deal with War+DK, War+Paly, War+War, they start spinning and I usually Disarm or Evade, but then, they are going to spin again and again
It's hard to play againt cleave with meeles...

Yeah assa can get run down pretty hard by melee cleaves

just gotta do more dam to them then they are to you

also press feint

What could be a good opener?

#

Usually I run into the enemy team, sap healer and one of the damagers, if possible, and cheap shot, garrote, rupture, mutilate, envenom, etc.. on the other

severe helm
#

there isnt really "one" opener as assa, land a sap on healer then cheap garrote dps and make sure you get bleeds up on both then send a kidney on the other dps that isnt on stun dr

but yeah your opener is sap -> open lol

I actually do. Which is why I refuse to heal 2s atm

#

Among other reasons

pearl dune
#

2s is good rn just some egregious comps

hidden dome
#

One of them is that I refuse to craft gear for PvP, including precog

pearl dune
#

2s been more fun then 3s this season by far

#

Its not an aoe check

Yeah 3s is worse, somehow. But that doesn't mean I enjoy 2s either.
I just don't really enjoy PvP at all in TWW. But Blitz is casual enough that it is alright

@potent pivot if you look up that build, none of them go flag

or even tea

Mhm

halcyon timber
#

Someone defends well, you’re outta gas

agile kite
#

maybe the big evis build isnt the 1 shot build afterall then

potent pivot
#

It’s just no flag

#

You can still take Tea if you want to

agile kite
#

im insanely new to rogue but the murlok build is what i have now, my evis doesnt hit hard but i do feel like i can stunlock 100-0 people really easy

#

so maybe the build for the big evis isnt as worth it?

halcyon timber

Its subjectively up to you man

this spec is hard lol but ty both

#

ill try out going flag tea and the other ones

potent pivot
agile kite

@potent pivot 100% lol

potent pivot

To line up finality evis with darkest night you have to rupture in the opener too

agile kite
#

i hit 1800 on assa spamming garrote and then switch sub to do bg blitz and have no idea what im doing

#

yeah wasnt even using rupture lol

#

oh and im going trickster lol

#

so maybe thats my issue right there

#

i copied weedtyler's build

hey is anyone having trouble with randomly losing stealth in arenas since last patch

#

i just randomly lost stealth twice - was against a ret pal and resto druid and didn't walk over any consecration or get hit by anything

potent pivot
#

there's been multiple stealth break bugs since TWW launch

#

they might be exploiting it or unknowingly causing it

solid wharf
#

😦

severe helm
#

have to just open on them before they enter combat

#

they will knock out all units within 30 yards once they start their rotation p much

#

have to just rush and get the sap on the healer and open up as soon as you can

halcyon timber
#

Divine toll will find you in stealth / vanish. Stuff from many people’s hero talents will purposely find you in stealth as it states “a nearby target”. Its on purpose and aint a bug. Just about every class gas anti rogue technology now .

#

Just like riders from dk chasing you during vanish and other silly things like spellslinger popping you with shards and dawnlight nonsense from paladin

potent pivot
#

some of them are definitely bugs

#

like the warlock shit that even got abused during a couple awc matches

halcyon timber
#

Dunno until official comments state otherwise in all sincerity

#

Warlock crap was annoying

#

Over fiend et al

#

Mass UA for aff will break us out for sure in s2

potent pivot
#

i don't expect official comments on anything anymore ngl

halcyon timber
#

Agreed man

potent pivot
#

the communication has really broken down since DF

#

they've been fixing a few sub/outlaw bugs on PTR and none of them were announced

halcyon timber
#

Yeah its rough and ill be mature about it in the end instead of getting ticked

potent pivot
#

then they announced a random Singular Focus bug fix, which i have no idea what it has to do with

halcyon timber
#

Yeah prob the strike bug you were talking about the other day

#

Haven’t played at all in a bit . Too busy w grad school stuff

potent pivot
#

i went on PTR earlier and tested it:
Singular Focus is still locking us in combat
it's still breaking CC
it's still breaking stealth - BUT it takes longer to break stealth now than on live

halcyon timber
#

Seems like they added a delay is all

potent pivot
#

they fixed sec tech and blades, so now blades should properly buff sec tech

halcyon timber
#

That’s nice

potent pivot
#

and they fixed replicating shadows causing delayed combo point refunds

#

also outlaw's worst subterfuge bug

#

so they're moving in the right direction, but tbh this expansion seems like there's too many bugs to tackle

halcyon timber
#

Devs hands are full for sure

It's a tricky things. They got the service channel and that's allowed but once out of game they can try to get you to pay real money for a boost.

#

took me like 10 min to understand what happened (never really tried to understand fatebound)

#

pushed BTE with over 5 cps still in subterfuge then subterfuge broke before the dispatch from crackshot got triggered which then triggered double jeopardy

which means its fivehead strat to push bte while subterfuge time left <= 0.5s

for a nice juicy luck dependant dmg spike atleast

is double rogue ( none sub ) viable

Outlaw is one of the worst double DPS specs in the game I'd say lol

It has no burst and is designed around uptime

It's effectively a fury warrior but with less self healing

that what im playing rn i mean im tanky asf but ya it useless cuz it just stalls time

i mean we smoke most double dps

but also super low cr
