Thank you

cobalt yew
#

Is it worth using Cyrces Circlet on pvp?

winter seal
#

no

jolly sierra
#

never

jolly sierra
#

i think are the desperate players

#

trying to get stuff

#

xd

cobalt yew
jolly sierra
#

what bout shuffle?

#

its easier for a 1k8 w alts

#

i did it w monk

#

and got the 1k8 in like 30 games

#

rounds

#

i say

cobalt yew
#

Just got to 1.8 bro and I'm washed af, I don't know anything about the game and play fully with my brain turned off

#

You can do it on alts

jolly sierra
#

lit why

cobalt yew
#

How does outlaw perform on solo shuffle?

hidden moth
#

its called marvel rivals or deadlock

hazy monolith
#

We talk 40

hidden moth
#

most have 5+

#

with passives

#

40 abilites to balance into a fps for 1 too nto have

#

would be wayyyy to much

hazy monolith
#

That was my idea

hidden moth
#

people alreadybitch about 25+ being too much in wow

#

or ff14

#

but lets add fps mechs to it

winter seal
#

@potent pivot the dream is alive

jolly sierra
#

every skirmish i play has a feral druid

#

wtf

#

different ferals

winter seal
#

feral busted

ionic orbit
#

Thoughts on if you should learn Flagellation and Goremaws bite?

winter seal
hidden moth
#

Windows+shift+s

outer sky
#

is sub still the best spec for RMP?

lost quest
#

Is orc still best horde race or can it be undead with wotf? ( blitz mainly)

severe helm
#

I really hope blizzard reverts the change that made all fears take like 40% hp to break

#

its super toxic for the game

stoic spruce
#

that fear break has been helping me so much lately with the amount of spriests and locks ive been running into

#

and DHs

severe helm
#

wdym

#

fear like never breaks nowadays lol

outer sky
stoic spruce
#

Yeah thats my point

#

Why would I use a break on something that breaks when the wind blows

verbal field
#

Solo shuffle game, doors open and this one heal sham just stays in base, almost dies at opener, at first I thought he was afk but no, I was just asking why he did that and I got instant messages like ā€˜why you asking you idiot’ ā€˜too noob to get it’ ā€˜dumb kid’ etc. Unfort I didnt screen that but is this some kind of hidden shaman strategy i dont know?

indigo hill
#

In my experience the biggest a holes in pvp are resto shamans. Don't know why it's always them.

stoic spruce
#

Them and specifically human rets

#

In my experience, they're tied.

glass hazel
#

yeah some shamans just cringe

#

and some hpals

#

priests\druids super chill most of the time

stoic spruce
#

No one knows toxic like a goblin shaman

verbal field
#

I dont really know what the problem there was, cause after that, his team stayed in base and so did my team, then someone left the match

#

I didnt even ask my question in an agressive way

gleaming sentinel
#

Watching Dazed’ shuffle vod. Dude is insane

indigo hill
jolly sierra
#

*human male rets

#

they are quite a meme

#

look

#

probably the biggest arses in pvp i ever found are DHs or undead players, specially rogues

#

oh oh, kazzak players too, indeed

indigo hill
#

Most people hate kazzak or argent dawn players.

#

I was going for the gilnean priest turned paladin when the gates broke.

jolly sierra
#

XD

jolly sierra
winter seal
#

Do you guys think blitz is extremely streaky or is it just me?

severe helm
#

yes

winter seal
#

crazy how it turns as well, I'll just be winning 4 straight and then its 4 losses

lost quest
severe helm
#

Yeah id like to watch as well haha

potent pivot
severe helm
#

ah its all 3s

#

doesnt look like he streamed and shuffs

potent pivot
#

ye i think he very rarely streams

severe helm
#

damn got baited

potent pivot
#

oh Pk said shuffle vod

severe helm
#

yeah

potent pivot
#

idk about all that

#

mans never streams

severe helm
#

maybe he thought it was shuffle

#

but it was 3s

#

idk

potent pivot
#

i've seen him play on kalvs stream pretty often

#

always 3s

ionic orbit
#

Which mouse do you guys think is best for rogue pvp? The 12 button style gaming mouse or more minimalist design with only 2-5 larger thumb buttons?

potent pivot
#

the mmo mouse

#

(the 12 button)

winter seal
potent pivot
#

you did pretty good regardless

winter seal
#

Yeah. I’m gonna queue more today. If I can climb a bit I might try and few games during the week and see if we can get there

#

Or if I can get back to 2300 maybe I can get there next weekend

jolly sierra
#

@stoic spruce ok

Most likely the razer tartarus

#

This thing

#

those poor shufflers haha

gleaming sentinel
#

Yea he just ran those lobbies over. Dudes 80% wr at 2900. My hero

hybrid palm
#

if duel being removed, what's the new sub themed pvp talent ?

potent pivot
#

there isn't one

#

same with outlaw, which lost 2 outlaw specific pvp talents

#

rogue got 1 new general pvp talent for feint

hybrid palm
#

ok, thanks

#

so when will they remove hemotoxin then ? šŸ˜„

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

that would be funny

#

but don't think so, is nerfed af

#

XD

severe helm
#

they might as well

#

only thing that it does is apply aoe ms

#

6% more than baseline wound is pretty irrelevant

winter seal
#

blitz mmr is so stupid

severe helm
#

yep

winter seal
#

i lost a bunch, so my mmr is lower than cr then i win 2 in a row and my mmr is close to my cr and i lose the next and i lose 65!!! mmr

stoic spruce
#

I accidentally forgot to apply wound and I don't think it actually made a difference in 2s

wary thistle
# ionic orbit What device do you use with a thumbstick?

Used to use the razer pad that tricks linked, nowadays using a standalone unit that butts up against my keyboard
https://store.maxxstick.com/products/maxxstick-r3-pro

MaxxStick Controllers

Tired of WASD holding you back? MaxxStick lets you level up your movement, whether it's smooth joystick control or 8-direction moves, depending on the game. Free up your fingers to focus on winning those fights and pulling off insane plays. MaxxStick gives you the control you need to dominate every match. Rubber wrist

#

Been liking the maxxstick way more since i can use my mech keyboard and it uses a ps5 stick, which feels way better than the razer stick and can be set as either directional key input or as an analog stick.

severe helm
#

I gave up

#

blitz is a meme bracket if its not fun dont play it

#

let it die

Maxxstick sounds more like a sex toy

dosent outlaw bladeflurry one thou still work been a minute sinse i ran it in pvp thou

potent pivot
#

Dunno, probably

#

You can’t spam it as often

gleaming pawn
#

I took an extended break and haven't been paying attention. Reading these patch notes, they certainly don't read as very Rogue positive

#

how cooked are we

potent pivot
#

we'll be fine as always i'm sure

gleaming pawn
#

that's what I'm trying to lean towards, but the specs are losing some good talents and our PvE changes are two lines. Nothing new by any means but goddamn

potent pivot
#

we're getting the feint pvp talent

#

sub and outlaw's tier sets seem good

agile kite
#

does anyone know how to officially get the

#

unbound strategist pendant

#

Someone said it's 25 wins post 2400, this says 50 wins post 2100 as a HEALER

i cannot figure it out

@potent pivot So it really is only for healers lol?

OH

#

thank you so much

potent pivot

i think the one you're wanting is the uh

forged legend's?

Yeah

#

FUCK, i have to win 25 above 2400 now

locking back in

Fatebound is 50/50 with DS in blitz that’s cray

kk good

potent pivot

think you meant the combo point gen right

#

not just hitting

#

with the aoe talent

inner tartan
#

yee deft whatnot manervers or howeveru spell it

#

on cast

potent pivot
#

yeh

rich pine
#

how are we feeling about the new assassination set bonus?

potent pivot
#

Pretty meh overall

#

Unless it gets buffed the 4set absolutely will not be worth using

#

Will probably use 2 set if there’s 2 pieces with decent stats

lone goblet
#

They need to change 4 set to 100% chance

dreamy parrot
#

anyone have a weakaura that shows if you have dots on you that would take you out of stealth. sometimes you'll have lots of debuffs but none are actually dots

potent pivot
#

I don’t believe anyone’s ever made a WA like that

#

You just kinda learn the debuff icons over time

dreamy parrot
#

sure but looking at 1 icon is quicker than scanning over 30 lol

#

ive found the option in weakauras that tracks periodic dmg, but it sometimes shows up for debuffs that dont have a dot tied to it

brazen ravine
#

Hello I never played pvp until this week (I want to do some in s2) and I wonder what is the "best" spec for it ? (Damages, mobility, tankiness, ...)
For now I prefere Outlaw but in my mind it was always Sub the "must to go" spec for pvp

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

s2? you need to wait a couple of weeks

#

sometimes specs unbalance a lot

#

in week 1, leaving other ones underperforming

potent pivot
#

outliers tend to get fixed quickly

brazen ravine
jolly sierra
#

you can see for example sub very OP in week one to be awfully nerfed shortly after

#

so just wait

potent pivot
jolly sierra
#

for example in DF s2 in pre season 2 you had sub 1 shotting ppl

#

and was nerfed to trash

#

after a week

#

so don't get too confident practising if you want to play the best one and wait

potent pivot
#

such a bad outlook for how the game is these days

jolly sierra
#

that happens because they always tune at start of a patch without measuring the consequences xd

#

i foresee fury warr deleting ppl in 3 seconds for week 1

potent pivot
#

week 1 doesn't make up the whole season

jolly sierra
#

but can matters if sub incident happens again, leaving the spec useless for a lot of time before some buff

#

so i wont advice practising for now if you are a newcomer, to avoid problems later

potent pivot
#

yeah i just find that as bad advice

#

it's a game, play if you want to play

jolly sierra
#

going anyways even as they get nerfed to the floor?

#

dude you will make them suffer trying to push

#

if they goes anyways

potent pivot
#

you're overstating hard

#

even when people say a spec is "dog shit" in this game, it's 99% of the time still viable

indigo hill

#

thanks everyone for you answers, outlaw will be the "need to go" for me then ! šŸ”„ see you around in arena šŸ˜Ž

Good outlook and positivity. Never leave that .

Good luck with that

Duality of pvper

halcyon timber
#

One can make their own decisions. No need to make it worse for others

stoic spruce
#

The assa is done before the gates open wdym?

halcyon timber
#

As a man thinketh, so is he

stoic spruce
#

It's so good that we don't know the names of our opponents prior to gates opening because I'd be the biggest shit talker

#

Wsp an fdk "you already lost btw"

#

@potent pivot wyd if your opponent whispers you "ooga booga booger bawlz" before gates are even up?

jolly sierra
#

i am just warning about the worst just in case they stick w the class and get nerfed at week 2

stoic spruce
#

What did I say the other day?

jolly sierra
stoic spruce
#

Very good

Sylvanas was actually late to the burning but they didn't want to give me credit.

jolly sierra

stoic spruce
#

Thank you very much Mr. Panda.

jolly sierra
#

for that elves being so fkn douches before the burning

stoic spruce

And making that annoying sound when the male ones die

Oh I remember

#

stay jealous

jolly sierra

jolly sierra
stoic spruce
#

I'm not jealous, I'm envious one could be so wrong and not see their flaws.

jolly sierra
#

i even feel pity for the highborne

#

its dumb hating them after such time

#

when they only wanted to rejoin

jolly sierra
severe helm
#

but people fucking with magic

jolly sierra
#

having a quarter for them

severe helm
#

kept starting shit

#

idiot

#

jolly sierra
#

like animals

severe helm

they just dont learn

jolly sierra

magic is needed

stoic spruce

Gf asked why i was taking a picture of my boot

jolly sierra
stoic spruce
#

I said "Hold on babe I'm about to burn someone on the internet"

brazen ravine
#

do you wear your 619 ilvl pvp gear instead of your 639 pve gear when you do outside pvp ? I know that pvp gear upgrade to 639 when you do arena or battlegrounds but I don't know about the rest

jolly sierra
#

639 pve gear? most ppl doesn't have 639 pve gear here xd

#

pvp gear works in outdoor

#

when is interacting in open pvp zones or you assaults someone else

brazen ravine
brazen ravine
jolly sierra
#

maybe for a curve

#

but nothing else

#

the pvp gear is enough for outdoor

brazen ravine
#

ah yes then its not increadible to get 639 like you let me think, its just not your cup of tea

#

its nice bcs i thought i was doing something wrong

jolly sierra
#

the thing is, pve for me is pretty boring

brazen ravine
#

it was so strange to me to only have 619

jolly sierra
#

killing npcs

jolly sierra
#

is the difference

#

if you do solo rated you can get enough currency to buy it

brazen ravine
#

yup i bought everything since I was doing it for the Tmog first

jolly sierra
#

if you win a game in your first pvp game of the season mostly you get a voucher to craft pvp gear

brazen ravine
#

but then...

jolly sierra
#

w 639 ilvl

#

you have floating chests in outdoor

#

if you loot them, it is 60 conq for free

formal pebble
#

but as the others have said its not vital

#

Mostly jusrt saves time killing quest mobs

halcyon timber
# jolly sierra good luck with that

No luck involved. Just don’t be an ass. People want to be a little shit can carry on and one day it catches up and someone gets fed the fuck up.

jolly sierra
#

rog is by far one of the most tuned classes overall

halcyon timber
#

Mistook you for the reply about something else I assume here.

Us rogues will be fine, despite the incessant whining of forums and bozos attempting to hijack / influence devs for jackass things.

jolly sierra
#

well, no

#

one spec at least

#

but if some spec is op af in early patch

#

it will die

#

for most season

#

i only say to be careful and wait

#

to avoid wasting time

#

if you are a newcomer

#

else, you can play normally

#

sub rogue had passed away a lot of times in early season patches

#

like kyrian S1 sub or DF preseason s2 (or 1 dont recall)

lone goblet
#

Man, blitz has turned into absolute shit this last week.
A week ago I was 2700 CR and only needed like 12 wins to finish off my seasonal mount (yeah I dont play that much until late season, I dont even have the mount bar finished yet). That was my goal just finish this stupid mount so I can stop playing until S2.

Now my MMR is down to 2000, I've lost like 25 games out of the last 30 and I still have 7ish more games to win before getting the mount. No matter how low my MMR goes seems to have no influence on the difficulty of winning a game. It's 100% random.

jolly sierra
#

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF

#

holy fuck

lone goblet
#

Like in Shuffle I can tell the difference between a 1800 game and a 2100 game massively. I can basically watch TV while playing at 1800 and still go 3-3, while I have to focus 100% to eek out anything at 2100.

jolly sierra
#

dude what is tough F

#

how

lone goblet
#

But in Blitz a 2000 game and a 2700 game feel exactly the same. there is no difference.

jolly sierra
#

too much sweaty players?

lone goblet
#

I think playing in the last 2 weeks is just bad. Next season Ill try and finish things up a month before the cutoff rather than waiting till final weeks.

jolly sierra
#

the end season tact is most for stacking MMR

#

i use it for 2k1, but tbh

#

sometimes i just lose a lot in a row and lose all the MMR i stacked for months

#

but reach the goal anyways

lone goblet
#

Fortunately I dont care about mmr right now, I already unlocked the duelist cosmetics... but I jsut want some wins to get this stupid mount.

#

and its taking forever

pale storm
#

blitz is a lottery, you either get a good team or not unfortunately and the difference in players can be astounding, even at 3100+. With the way the mmr is, new players that never pvp can hit 3k+ mmr if they streak early (which a lot of people do), then get placed in games with good players and you can easily tell the difference. just unfortuinately you may get stuck with the new players every match, it is luck of the draw

lone goblet
#

It's weird., my placement games for blitz I did about a month ago and went 8 wins 7 losses and it still put me at like 2600 CR

#

and then I hovered around 50%, even climbing a bit to 2700

#

then last week the massive loss streak hit

#

I don't consider myself good at blitz at all... so I was confused why my CR so high... figured it must just be massive inflation.

over why not "just go mage"

as a double melee comp

just train a frost mage yk

once i say a guy

you can "just" train a frost mage

frost mage/evoker + all casters

#

couldnt do anything

#

frost mage really is such a cuck

#

i cant even run away

#

i just get RNG rooted while trying to limp away at 10% speed

#

idk why blizzard lets that spec exist

stoic spruce
#

dont worry

#

2 grips, 2 freedoms, and a wraithwalk and I still cant connect to anyone in a mage/hunter lobby

outer sky
#

and you dont even get slowed as much as everyone else

#

and they dont die either

stoic spruce
#

They're so bait targets

outer sky
#

it's just so frustrating

#

I'm trying to push r1

#

and like

#

frost mage

#

is by far the biggest cuck

#

if there hadnt of been a frost mage in that lobby I could have won the lobby

#

but frost mage so 0-6

hybrid palm

#

I have no issue killing a frost mage as long as they don't have an hpal haha

#

Freedom makes that spec a god

Or unless it's ok tol viron arena

That one is just too big man

#

Idk why ashmanes isn't in the shuffle map pool but mugambala is

hybrid palm
#

ive even tried dropping pre-med etc, and getting night terrors for hunter pets some rounds :D, don't work

#

night terrors should be baseline

#

How long does it take you guys to get into a game? I stopped queueing when I hit 2150 and the queue time was 37+ minutes per game.

#

I just was like, "well, I'd like to go for 2400 again but my sanity cannot sanction this nonsense. Unsub"

#

(This was over a month ago, curious if queues have improved)

potent pivot
#

Can depend on the time of day you queue, but it’s the end of the season so things have popped back to life a bit

#

Lots of people grinding last minute rewards and buying boosts for them as well

winter seal
#

My bgb queues were like 9 minutes. Shuffle was like maybe 14. Sometimes less tho

dark kernel
#

Alright giys

#

How cooked we thinking outlaw is next patch

potent pivot
#

it'll be fine

dark kernel
#

Take your cut is a pretty massive nerf. Increased item stats may alleviate it, but unsure

potent pivot
#

we have take em by surprise, that's all that's required at the end of the day to meet our haste requirement

#

its a little shitty we can't give our team the extra haste, but it's nothing we can't live without

indigo hill
#

There's like 5 of us that play outlaw. We will pull trough like we always have.

jolly sierra

jolly sierra
#

OUTLAW IS NOW THE BEST SPEC LETS GOOOOOO

potent pivot
#

people say that

#

but all 3 specs have been good all season

dark kernel
#

They've been good just not what's played

#

Sin was pretty high tier except for healers that were meta

#

Hpal and prevoker are doodoo for sin

potent pivot
#

wdym "whats played"

dark kernel
#

Uhh...every single high ranking rogue is playing outlaw in 3s?

#

A few are playing sub rogue like Nahj

jolly sierra
#

pandora box has been opened

potent pivot
#

even for eu that is less true than it was a couple months ago

#

and hasn't been true for na the entire season

dark kernel
#

Its not a point of contention and without data on X games played above a certain rating as the spec, it's all speculation.

#

I've not personally seen many people play Sin outside of shuffle and outside afflock

jolly sierra
#

well, TBH 3s is a dead bracket

#

representation is VERY low there

#

ppl moved on for both blitz and SS

#

even 2s has low numbers

potent pivot
#

i can agree that spec can be comp dependent, but we have a decent amount of data

jolly sierra
#

even less in RBGs

#

rbgs has 250 players overall in the world at 2k4+

#

3s 2k players in each region

#

shuffle has 12000 players across the world

#

blitz 12k players too

#

ye, u can't pick 3s for representation for a whole category as pvp

#

if their numbers are so low compared to other brackets

potent pivot
#

ye, numbers are for sure lower these days

#

but afaik there's more assa above 2.4k than outlaw

#

(in all regions)

jolly sierra
#

almost even

#

3 heads doesn't make a change in representation

potent pivot
#

huh

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

ah diff page

jolly sierra
#

think so

potent pivot
#

nvm thats top 5k

jolly sierra
#

did you filtered 2k4+?

potent pivot
#

on the last page i linked yes

jolly sierra
#

ye

#

dead bracket

potent pivot
#

not the one i just deleted

jolly sierra
#

xd

potent pivot
#

still my main point is just

#

i find it weird when people say something is best or the meta choice

#

when it isn't

jolly sierra
#

even stat wise

#

as we checked

#

isnt the best according to the stats in 3s

#

in that pov should be assa

potent pivot
#

at one point a couple months ago, outlaw was like 40 out of the top 50 in EU only

#

now that its time for r1 push that has changed

Only thing I would swap is Lingering Darkness for Symbolic Victory

alrighty

dh "why u have 0 kidneys"
me "bc u cant resist mass dring everyone with ur shitty 2 second stun, im not using 5 cp on a 1 second stun"

jolly sierra
#

fkn dipshit

#

that happens a lot

hidden moth
#

then he was like "kidney is a 1 second stun???"

#

like yeah dude when u aoe stun everything and dr it

#

that and i was spreading some cheap shots when i could as well bc at least cheap isnt a waste of 5 cp

verbal field
hidden moth
#

yeah its only a 2.1k lobby in blitz

#

i shouldnt expect much

#

and its piussing me off that i waited and am now stuck in shitter lobbies

#

its worse than the shit lobbies u had at 1200 trying to hit 1800 at the start of the season

#

does anyone use "diminish" its working for the target frame but cant get it to show on nameplates

potent pivot
#

personally i just use gladius for DRs

jolly sierra
hidden moth
#

trueee

#

gladius doesnt work in bgb no?

#

i got it working, it wasnt showing dr on nameplates of pvp dummies but works live

potent pivot
#

battlegroundenemies does

#

but thats a pain for DRs

#

uhh

#

there was a WA for tracking DRs on nameplates

#

but its broken now i think

#

hang on

#

yeah i can't even find it now

#

i had to delete it because it was causing hundreds of errors

#

try one of these maybe:

#

they're both kinda old so

#

might not work at all

karmic summit
#

my mental at this point

karmic summit
#

i am like giga tilted so i am just not queueing today

@wintry dew when did you turn green?

wintry dew
#

During 2024 summer kinda

normal zealot
#

hi, is there a recommended plugin for marking healer and other teammate with a big icon so i can see them better?

#

I think one of those here might do that, but i got no clue šŸ˜’

stoic spruce
#

I ain't reading all dat

wintry dew
#

You asked for a date, i gave it

stoic spruce
#

Okay I read it

severe helm
#

I think betterblizzardplates has options for that

#

also there should be standalone addons for putting healer markers on teammates as well

gleaming pawn
hidden moth
#

nvm

#

just lost bc im 1v3 on off carts

gleaming pawn
hidden moth
#

in silvershard

#

but some how its my fault we lost

#

bc my team cant win a 7v5 on lava

gleaming pawn
#

It’s always the Rogue’s fault their team loses in Silvershard. Just like in AB. Because if you can’t solo cap a node against 2+ people then you just suck at Rogue /s

wintry dew
winter seal
gleaming pawn
#

I gain more grey hairs for every Silvershard I’m in. People stop thinking and just throw the whole match for some reason. It’s incredible

hidden moth
#

this dk tryin to tell me how to play

#

XD

gleaming pawn
#

Wow that’s just a fundamental lack of knowledge of how the game works not just Rogue. And why is it always the DKs and DHs

hidden moth
#

also 1v1 who wins assa rogue or feral? im gonna say feral wins that 1v1 99% of the time

gleaming pawn
#

If the assa can open and has veil talented? Probably 60/40 Rogue. But if the feral opens on you it’s going to be a bad time regardless

hidden moth
#

i qued into that dk next game on gilneas

#

ally spawn i go mines to ninja they got a bm and a ret there

#

i see whats up get out rush ww win ww

#

then as they repush ww 1v1 the hunter take mine we 3 cap and that fuckin dk was on the other team that got shit on XD

gleaming pawn
#

That’s karmic perfection, well done. Almost worth sending a smiley face to the DK after

hidden moth
#

send him a :3

#

bc we 3 capped

stoic spruce
#

I do that to people I keep running into in shuffle

#

Sometimes I send trash talk

#

Or <3

#

Which is worse tbh

gleaming pawn
#

Popo you need to fix the DK rot. It’s getting so bad

stoic spruce
#

I picked it back up dw

#

There's been too many bad dks in shuffle

#

I gotchu

gleaming pawn
stoic spruce
#

I got hit with a "I didn't know dks still had pet stun" last night

#

From a healer

gleaming pawn
#

Lol wut

stoic spruce
#

Yeah idk what's in the water

gleaming pawn
#

Pet stun was almost the sole reason I hated facing DKs on my healer. We need new good blood in pvp period

stoic spruce
#

Real

#

I loved the toxicity from last night. Everyone talking shit but I was in greens still winning because apparently cross CC is a figment of a DHs imagination

stoic spruce
#

Not to self glaze ofc. I got my ass handed to me plenty by mage/hunter/feral lobbies

gleaming pawn
#

Oh glaze away sir. Rolling lobbies in greens because you’re just better is the perfect excuse

hidden moth
#

#

im excited for dh next season tbh

#

2p df s3 set is now a talent mmmmmmm

verbal field
hidden moth
#

in s2

#

blade dance also throws glaive

#

and each slice has 50% chance to throw another that does 35% dam

stoic spruce
#

I will say

hidden moth
stoic spruce
#

After spamming chains of ice all night, I can confidently say outlaw has the best slow in the game assuming they're talented into cripple amp talent

hidden moth
#

cripple amp?

stoic spruce
#

Yeah I forgot what it's called

#

But that on top of pistol shot slow is a lot better than chains of ice

hidden moth
#

is ur stuff dispellable though?

#

crip a poison so its dispellable

#

chains isnt

stoic spruce
#

But you instantly reapply it

#

And it's a global that deals damage

hidden moth
#

true

jolly sierra
#

isn't it just shiv?

stoic spruce
#

I thought so too until I tested it in df but nope

hidden moth
outer sky
#

I'm honestly reconsidering whether or not Nelf is actually good for assa rogue or not

#

Meld lets me stealth after it maybe 20% of the time

#

and thats being generous honestly

#

its probably more like 15%

#

over thousands of games

#

its very rare meld gives me stealth

#

so is it really good

#

or is it bait

This guy died so fast LOL

normal zealot
#

Thanks @severe helm, @gleaming pawn. I will take a look at the betterblizzplates although it seems insanely complicated, like i might need a phd in betterblizzplates tbf

severe helm
#

for me its like 99%

normal zealot
#

I found the setting in betterblizzplates to edit the player marker, i didnt need a phd

gleaming pawn
#

You can use the Magnuz (I think, something like that) preloaded profile. I switched from Plater since I’m healing m+ now and that profile is pretty good outside the box. I made minor tweaks for my own preference but it will get you most of the way there

normal zealot
#

And btw, while i did find the option in betterblizzplates to fix it. It appears im using the nameplates from ElvUI, so... i went and changed the settings there

#

I dont want to import something new and change everything again, its a been a trip

potent pivot
#

using 2 addons for nameplate functions can clash

normal zealot
#

Idk what betterblizzplates is doing other than nameplates

#

But im getting my nameplates from elvui

normal zealot
potent pivot
#

all plate addons have different types of debuff/etc tracking

#

you're also loading multiple addons that anchor onto plates which is kind of a waste of your PC's resources

normal zealot
normal zealot
#

But ill keep this in mind, incase i notice any performance issues

potent pivot
#

elvui is one of the worst addons in the game for performance

#

uninstalling that shit will almost always result in gaining fps

#

this is betterblizzplates on it's own

normal zealot
normal zealot
#

Thats how mine looks rn, tbh the poisons and stuff look better in betterblizz

#

might try it will try it

potent pivot
#

Ye, both things work

#

Just don’t think you need BetterBlizzPlates if using elvui and vice versa

#

Elvui is just really bad at the beginning of seasons and is a much more pc intensive addon

normal zealot
#

So you would recommend not using it, thats what im hearing, right?

potent pivot
#

Might not be as noticeable in arena as compared to dungeons/raids idk

normal zealot
#

i dont do any pve other than lvling

potent pivot
#

I just don’t see why you’d need BBP while using it

normal zealot
#

It came "pre-installed" with skilledcap and their addon

#

so thats why its installed i thnk

potent pivot
#

Ye it does

normal zealot
#

So what addon are you then using for your keybinds and bars?

#

Like the whole layout thing for where to put each skill and consumables

potent pivot
#

Most people use default blizz bars these days

#

Because they are a lot better now than they were when elvui was popular

#

I’m just a ui aesthetics snob kinda

potent pivot
#

You can basically just plug in the skillcapped ui and be fine for 90% of your UI, especially if you got the paid version it’ll have all the profiles ported

harsh kiln
normal zealot
potent pivot
#

if you're used to elv and it doesn't cause you any issues, i wouldn't worry about it too much

#

though if you want to play week 1 of seasons i would def make sure you have BBP or other addons as a back up plan

normal zealot
#

I will try configuring my UI without elvui and see where i get to. I defo want to play week 1 of seasons

#

i like to get rekt

normal zealot
#

<|:-E

severe helm
#

lil something like this

normal zealot
harsh kiln
#

holy shit

normal zealot
#

I was using luxthos WA as well but i forget what my keybinds are so i need to look at my bar anyway ssometimes

harsh kiln
#

haha that's alot of clutter xD

potent pivot
severe helm
#

I mean its not bad cuz I have no action bars

potent pivot
#

no omnibar?

severe helm
#

only kicks on my omnibar

harsh kiln
#

i mean if you're used to it all power to you

severe helm
#

everythign else is tracked on gladius

#

or via weak auras when people actually pop offensives

normal zealot
severe helm
#

lol yes

#

got quite a few hours played

normal zealot
#

i forget what i click 60% of the time

harsh kiln
#

1 for ss and ambush, 2 for dispatch

severe helm
#

but yeah I need to update my gladius a lot of cds got reset and im only recently realizing as I started pushing

potent pivot
#

this is my UI

severe helm
#

Yeah I just dont really look at gladius cuz the order moves around too much

#

so its just kind of nonsense to my brain

#

so I like it on gladius so its underneath the relevant person

potent pivot
#

i never have THAT many omnibar icons

#

that's the full suite

normal zealot
harsh kiln
#

the thing i'm most proud of in my ui is the fact that i've removed the countless bars of buff/debuff icons underneath my target and focus frame

potent pivot
normal zealot
#

wild

potent pivot
#

i've been moving shit around tn

normal zealot
#

then again, im pretty new. i got no muscle memory

potent pivot
#

been swapping back and forth from pve set up to pvp set up

#

trying to figure out a good way to swap between the two atm

potent pivot
#

what do you do when swapping between them as far as UI goes? curious

#

every addon profile manager i've tried is shit

normal zealot
#

Is there no way to copy bar1 settings in bartender to bar2? Like keybind size etc.?

gusty hedge
potent pivot
#

myslot is for copying addon profiles across characters, it won't help with the initial set up of bartender

normal zealot
potent pivot
#

it's pretty easy

normal zealot
#

It just takes time

#

im changing fonts and font sizes for everything D:

potent pivot
#

just went through and changed all mine for the hell of it kekdog

verbal field
#

what to macro badge with as sub?

potent pivot
#

you can macro it to blades but i'd recommend keeping it on it's own bind in case you want to use it with a dance/symbols

mellow pecan
#

Why the low ilvl dagger? why in the mainhand?

#

might be a bug with the website?

potent pivot
#

all of his gear scales up to 639 in pvp

#

so the slot of his dagger doesn't matter

#

all of these sites are kinda dogshit at tracking gear because they are just Armory data scrapers and even the Armory is dog shit

mellow pecan
#

Ohh i see

#

i was confused since it says

#

"scales to 606 in pvp"

#

cheers mate :)

stoic spruce
hybrid palm
#

How does diminishing returns on cc work, and when does it reset?

#

Is there a way to know in advance if enemy has dr advantage

#

Instead of wasting kidney or cheap

potent pivot
hybrid palm
#

I see

potent pivot
#

you need addons

hybrid palm
#

Ok thanks will go through

potent pivot
#

to see DRs

hybrid palm
#

Ok

hidden moth
#

It’s been helpful tbh

gleaming pawn
potent pivot
#

yes i tried using that one

#

but the profile drop down at the bottom was so trash

#

it kept fucking up the profiles

gleaming pawn
#

Huh weird. The only problem I can think of is all of the empty profiles that always display but I just swap between my two at the top

#

Though come to think of it, I did go through at one point in DF and manipulated the configuration file

potent pivot
severe helm
#

plater has more customizable scripts and stuff so I can track seasonally specific mobs/casts for color coding and shit

potent pivot
#

ye i use plater in pve

#

but i also swap out my weakaurs

#

and a couple other addons

severe helm
#

Yeah I add in like bigwigs and shit

potent pivot
#

i might try making my pve WAs only load in dungeon/raid

#

there's a condition for that iirc

gleaming pawn
#

Yeah there is. There’s a ton of new filtering in WA these days

potent pivot
#

other issue is i use SUF and a different UI layout in each content

#

i'm just trying to make it so that i have the least possible amount of clicks and annoying shit to do when i swap between content

severe helm
#

I just dont use them at all

#

they just take up space haha

#

I just stare at nameplates and gladius/raid frames

#

I even look at raid frames for my own hp not even my unit frame

potent pivot
#

your party frames?

severe helm
#

yeah party/raid frames

potent pivot
#

i like knowing what CDs my healer has at least

severe helm
#

Yeah

#

Im saying im gona delete my unit frame

#

this

potent pivot
#

oh your player frame

severe helm
#

and this

#

these are unit frames afaik

potent pivot
#

i watch a lot of my debuffs there

severe helm
#

oh wild

gleaming pawn
#

I still use my player frame for my health, but yeah I almost always am watching nameplates for my target

severe helm
#

I filter debuffs so I only see relevant ones and I use nameplates for that

potent pivot
#

i watch the debuffs i apply to enemies on nameplates

severe helm
#

thats crazy

potent pivot
#

how lol

severe helm
#

well theres no addon managing them and theyre tiny

#

and have a million junk debuffs

potent pivot
#

huh

severe helm
#

like wtf is this

potent pivot
#

we are misunderstanding each other

#

that isn't a nameplate

#

thats an enemy unit frame

severe helm
#

oh I thought you said unit frames

potent pivot
#

oh i see where the mix up is

severe helm
#

ooooh you move debuffs to player frames

#

using suf?

#

cuz by default they dont have debuff

#

s

potent pivot
#

nah

#

i watch my bleeds

#

on nameplates

#

then

#

on enemy unit frame

#

i watch their buffs

#

i misspoke mb

severe helm
#

ah gotcha

potent pivot
#

betterblizzframes

severe helm
#

yeah I dont like unit frames for buffs

potent pivot
#

filters the buffs/debuffs

#

btw

severe helm
#

oh on unit frames? or on nameplates

potent pivot
#

you can whitelist/blacklist anything you want

#

on unit frames and on default buff/debuff bars

#

you can also like

severe helm
#

ooooh nice thats useful

potent pivot
#

shift+right click them

#

to blacklist

#

idr the keybind

#

i have a lot of customization put into my betterblizzframes/betterblizzplates

jaunty osprey
#

Is there any way to make target frames not show the invulnerable to kick thing when evokers cast their charged abilities

#

like fire breath and other stuff, i just want the look of the normal cast bar

potent pivot
#

if you want it to look like a default blizzard cast bar i'm not sure

#

i know you can use a WA cast bar for pretty much anything, but it would be completely different

#

i'm sure if you used plater you could probably figure out a setting for it

#

but for default or betterblizzplates no idea

jaunty osprey
#

hmm okay

#

do any of you guys have a good omnibar that hooks to gladius for enemy CDs?

#

I’ve tried using the sweepyboop addon, but using it with better blizz plates bugs out nameplate castbars

potent pivot
#

have you tried gladiusEX?

#

i think kalv uses it

#

my omnibar is just center screen and on top of player/target frames

jaunty osprey
#

Does GladiusEX look exactly the same?

potent pivot
#

mostly the same yeah

#

iirc it has basically all the same settings as gladius for customizing size/cast bars/positioning of icons etc

hybrid palm
#

is the queue time a lie in solo shuffle ?

potent pivot
#

its an estimate of the average wait time

#

sometimes it pops early, sometimes late

severe helm
#

I dont think gladius does right?

#

thats why I switched to gladiusex in the first place

severe helm
#

so your omnibar would just have all enemy cds

#

instead of cds specific to arena1/2/3

#

tbh I think gladiusex is just superior in almost every way to gladius

#

but people are used to gladius

jaunty osprey
jaunty osprey
potent pivot
severe helm
#

can omnibar detect arena1,2,3?

potent pivot
#

it might be able to but i've never tried

severe helm
#

Yeah gladiusex just solves all this imo haha

potent pivot
#

not replying to you mewo

#

sorry

severe helm
#

oh

potent pivot
#

i should've made it a bit more apparent kekdog mb

severe helm
#

dont think you can import gladius to gladiusex yeah

#

theyre like totally different addons afaik

potent pivot
#

word

#

i just assumed the EX version was built off the same framework on the OG version

severe helm
#

I think it was forked from a while back

#

it might work now but I rmeember I tried this myself cuz I use to use gladius as well

#

in shadowlands

potent pivot
#

gotcha

#

also not sure if omnibar has a1/2/3 anchors

severe helm
#

for a while I would use gladius AND gladiusex and just turn off everything except the cds in gladiusex lol

potent pivot
#

i've used the same omnibar profile for a while and i typically just import someone else's and make a couple changes

severe helm
#

yeah omnibar is just a little too disorganized for me so I pretty much only use it for kicks

#

or for really class specific stuff like fade/death when im playing mage/hunter

normal zealot
#

kinda stupid how long pvp queues are as dps lol

hidden moth
#

means less healers quing

#

also healing u have alot more to watch out for than dps do tbh

#

so its a higher skill floor as well. so most stay away from healer meaning less heals means less active games means longer wait time

normal zealot
#

but still

#

sadge

severe helm
#

its very unfortunate yeah

severe helm
#

I'd say up until about 2.6/2.7, the healers are by far the best players in the match

normal zealot
#

i recently started playing hpal just to get a perspective on how healers play, its for sure way more difficult than any dps

#

cant imagine the dedication required to reach top ranks as a healer

hidden moth
gleaming sentinel
#

And just call it ā€œreplica setā€ etc

hybrid palm
#

wow pvp has win trading ?

jolly sierra
#

yes

#

in shuffle

hybrid palm
#

and why doesnt blizzard stop it ?

jolly sierra
#

they bans

#

but is not a topic

hybrid palm
#

based on what ?

potent pivot
#

its in every bracket really, but more prevelant in solo queue

jolly sierra
#

based in past bans maybe?

hybrid palm
#

as in how do they track

jolly sierra
#

they gets reported

hybrid palm
#

because im pretty sure ive been in 2 back to back win traded games

potent pivot
#

there's metrics they can check

hybrid palm
#

where i went 0 -6

potent pivot
#

but typically the most bans happen after the season has ended

jolly sierra
#

they doesn't bans insta

#

xd

potent pivot
#

and it's mostly the higher rated traders that get banned

#

the ppl who did it the most etc

hybrid palm
#

and pve druid healer who i went on , always protected when my enemy, and never went on when friend

jolly sierra
#

this is not club penguin dude, bans aren't THAT fast

hybrid palm
#

i see

#

ok

#

so just live with it kind of thing

potent pivot
#

if you think someone is win trading just report
