"If you have Neck/Rings with sockets from S1, use the 9 Conquest Heraldries to recraft them to 678." where is the option to do this?

potent pivot
#

what do you mean

graceful ravine
#

how do i upgrade my s1 piece to 678 and keep sockets?

potent pivot
#

you recraft it

graceful ravine
#

where is the option to use my current ring for the order?

potent pivot
#

click the recraft button

graceful ravine
#

nvm i see it

#

thanks

#

recraft cant be a public order?

potent pivot
#

nope

#

You likely want to stack at least 20% Haste on Outlaw for an extra GCD during ADR/Crackshot windows. Take 'em by Surprise gives you 10% during CS windows, so you only need 10-15% from gear.

On day one that is

Yea im not even subbed and i can feel it , I mean i guess this weekend will be the ultimate test since there’s more people like me that might resub over the weekend

dapper chasm
#

The hell is this?

#

Why does it make me feel mad?

#

Also, the gearing guide is nice - but for the gearing PROCESS do we go BGs till full honour gear, then straight to shuffle to farm conquest while doing the new zone's daily quest for blood tokens?

Are we not getting bloody token weapons? I thought weapon damage was king?

I think we wait for 2.5k achivment

Same build for both solo shuffle and bg blitz?

Yeah I use it for both

I noticed last night when I would get 5+ buffs… vanish CD was effectively less than 30 seconds. It’s nuts

Never played rogue in PvP, only ever mage and disc priest so. Time to learn lmao

Im thinking of getting Wrist and Hands Warmonger and get Chest tier piece from conq. That is a decent plan?

Assa spec.

#

any1 wanna drop a good build for sub 11.1

How much do we gotta bribe blizz with to give us 1 catalyst charge a week

Waiting what 3 more weeks for full tier is pain 😭

Smart people..... I dont have any algari on this toon and only the 9 healdry.....whats the play to gear up?

stoic spruce
#

I just bought a full set of honor gear and said ggs

#

Everything else was too confusing

deft spear
#

thats what i have now.....and scared to use my conquest

stoic spruce
#

What spec?

deft spear
#

rocking Sin...but...yall making outlaw seem appealing

stoic spruce
#

Obv not weapons since we get those free

deft spear
#

yeah, following the "guide' plan to do chest to tier, then shoulders to tier

stoic spruce
#

That'd be better for assa

deft spear
#

but without having algari gear not sure if that changes anything

#
  • Assassination/Subtlety:
    • This week we should be buying Conquest chest and Catalyzing it. Then using the free Catalyst charge from reaching 1.6k rating on shoulders.
  • Outlaw:
    • This week we should be buying Conquest helm and Catalyzing it. Then use the free Catalyst charge from reaching 1.6k rating on gloves.

#

Outlaw tier set is good?

dark kernel
#

It's a good enough

#

The two-piece seems meh , but the four piece could be interesting

stoic spruce
#

4pc is good

#

In no way is more rtb buffs a bad thing

spring bough
#

Can we start a trade cartel on heraldies

#

And push the price to 1k gold per

And get rich this week

spring bough
stoic spruce
#

DF S3 tier was god tier

#

We will see

spring bough
#

I can’t even remember what it was lol

stoic spruce
#

The rtb tier

spring bough
#

I’m already getting insane 3+ and 5-6 rtb buff windows

stoic spruce
#

Perma 3 buffs

spring bough
#

When I get 4 set? Oh it’s gonna be perma 5 buffs

#

1 min duration 5 buffs

#

Which means GAME OVER for the other team

#

And you’ll usually get the 6th in that window for a good amount of time too

lethal yew
#

Subterfuge was always 6s?

stoic spruce
#

No

lethal yew
#

When was it nerfed?

stoic spruce
#

It was buffed

lethal yew
#

talking about the talent

stoic spruce
#

Yeah the two tier talent

#

I may be wrong actually but they made changes to it but I don't think it was a nerf

lethal yew
#

Idk 6 seconds seems short?

stoic spruce
#

Well you get 2 so that's 12

#

18 on opener

lethal yew
#

2?

stoic spruce

2 vanishes

#

Did I make a mistake?
I sold all my S1 craft PvP gear - Forged Gladiator X
is it possible to recraft those pieces for S2?
should I used item restore on them?

stoic spruce
#

If you want to go through the hassle you can, but frankly why would you?

lime venture
#

Save on cost of materials

stoic spruce
#

I sold all my gear and replaced it with honor

#

Fair

lime venture
#

So last night I was one match from hitting 1800 in solo shuffle... I just wanted to flex on my raid group in the new swag tier set
I que'ed into triple warrior group
FML
I went 2-4 and 2 of the losses were really close.
Ill try again tonight.

#

Outlaw seems OK - but doesnt feel as strong as last season. MM Hunters seem to be the most dangerous with thier burst combo and Fury warriors do unhealable damage into dampening.

lethal yew
#

Doesnt work, it destroys the gem when you do the recraft

lime venture
#

the gem slots also?

spring bough
#

More buffs making the CDR feel insane

graceful ravine
chrome schooner
#

I have all my sockets on the new honor gear

spring bough
graceful ravine
#

is the tier set for assa still trash? was reading the summary of it but it was from a few months ago

#

or did they buff it

gleaming pawn
#

You want 2p

chrome schooner
#

they didn't buff it but playing it is very free

#

you don't have to play around it

gleaming pawn
#

Jury is still out on if 4p will be worth or not. But I believe it’s learning towards 4p. Being good

chrome schooner
#

also stats are quite ok

graceful ravine
#

recalled they were saying it was approx 1 proc every 2 mins, for 4 seconds

#

or something stupid

chrome schooner
#

the 4p might be like that, idk the proc rate

#

but aain you don't lose much by playing it

#

there are decent stats on the gear

graceful ravine
#

assa "feels" strong rn, but worried we might get fked later on when everybody gets stronger w/ tier sets and ours is trash

chrome schooner
#

if it keeps being removed with dot ticks then even the 2p isn't worth x)

graceful ravine
#

this article is from jan 9 so idk whats changed since then

#

1 proc every 2 mins is for PVE with 100% melee uptime, its alot worse in pvp

#

and tier sets are nerfed by 50% in pvp too? gg

spring bough
#

I think they have the most over 2k in shuffle right now out of all the rogues too

graceful ravine
#

yea but thats without tier sets

#

once other classes get their (stronger) tier sets, meta will shift

#

and lower hp pools at beginning of season

#

relatively to gear

spring bough
#

Some dude hit elite as Sin already

#

Wicked 😂

gilded sand
#

looks like they fixed recrafting sockets? mine got destroyed on my ring just now

spring bough
#

The couple games I played with Sin last night. Outlaw was >>> over its damage by a lot lol

spring bough
#

What is the saying? Exploit early and often lol

gilded sand
#

thats so frustrating, i just got time to recraft my stuff and everyone else gets to have their sockets

spring bough
#

Pls don’t report 😂

gilded sand
#

im sure they know and dont care

lime venture
#

exploit early
exploit often

spring bough
#

Sounds like I just got free sockets on my neck, bracers, belt, and rings 😂

#

Gemming my helm later and done for the season

gilded sand
#

would like to know if anyone else can still do the recraft and keep their sockets still

spring bough
#

If I remember upgrading from current season honor to conquest keeps the gems too

#

Would be a pain if they changed that

indigo hill
#

What are we turning into tier pieces as Outlaw?

stoic spruce
#

Not chest

#

Head and gloves

lethal yew
#

In some scenarios, recraft gear with sockets destroy the socket

spring bough
spring bough
#

Then legs last

stoic spruce
#

Why

#

Its heavy mast

spring bough
#

We need 4 set still

#

Out of shoulders, chest and legs. The shoulders have the most mastery I believe

#

Chest atleast has verse

#

And legs have a ton of crit

gleaming sentinel
#

Kinda think once u get 30% vers or so and 20% haste, it’s not like mastery is completely terrible after that

indigo hill
#

Btw i checked and the gem gets removed from the item when recrafting.

spring bough
#

I think it’s getting removed for some and staying for others. Sounds bugged

indigo hill
#

Enchants stay on tho

gilded sand
#

in the crafting window updating the heraldry slot in any way removes the sockets from the preview, i guess thats just it fixed then

spring bough
old dome
#

I bought stuff for assa and now I wanna play out

#

:((((

#

Sadface

lime venture
#

I was doing Blitz last night and most maps are flag carry this season... was thinking sin is gonna be great in blitz this season

gleaming pawn
#

It’s completely random what maps you get into

outer sky
#

assa is good in 2s if anyone cares

severe helm
#

in fact vers is still better than crit and mastery even past 30%

#

trickster might shift that a little towards crit

#

but its def not mastery

#

esp if youre playing trickster

#

cuz fatebound gives you a flat damage buff which is fine but trickster buffs explicitly your builders and finishers so your mastery is inherently worse on trickster

gleaming sentinel
#

Outlaw mastery needs an update loll

stoic spruce
#

It did

#

It got a buff

#

Imagine tho

spring bough
#

Imagine if outlaw had a good mastery passive

spring bough
severe helm
#

Yeah havent tried it yet

#

im sure itll feel decent

gilded sand
severe helm
#

something went wrong then haha

#

cuz thats how it works for everyone else

#

if you recraft an item that had sockets on it last time it will keep sockets and enchants

spring bough
#

I feel like blizz fudded this

#

Think the question we need to ask is did they intend for season 1 algari to be upgraded to season 2 algari? If they did, then sockets should stay. If they didn’t, then we get fked

severe helm
#

well yeah its weird cuz the socket item itself says 'can be used on s1 items only'

#

so if they wanted that restriciton

#

then why can you bypass it in this way

#

it is def weird

spring bough
#

They 100% fked this up. No way did they intend for everyone to get free sockets season to season lol

#

Like you can’t upgrade omen crafted to the new pve crafted right? So why would PvP be any diff

gleaming sentinel
#

So many people hoarded the stones who cares just leave it be

lime venture
spring bough
#

I guess so. Just feels weird we were able to keep them when in any other previous season we wouldn’t have been able to

Subtlety: Vers>Mastery>Crit>Haste
Assassination: Vers>Mastery>Crit=/=Haste

You likely want to stack at least 20% Haste on Outlaw for an extra GCD during ADR/Crackshot windows. Take 'em by Surprise gives you 10% during CS windows, so you only need 10-15% from gear.

Also, recrafts are losing sockets now?

Bout to log in and check

Have a feeling that fix might get reverted after so many people got to abuse it

#

Anyone who didn’t get to do it will be piiissed

jaunty osprey
#

on my work pc

#

so can’t screenshot

#

but adding griftah’s to it doesnt remove the socket

#

Now

#

let me check with s1 to s2

#

instead of s2 to s2

spring bough

S1->S1 always kept sockets so that isn’t surprising

Can’t go from s1 to s2

jaunty osprey

with keeping sockets

it ddoesnt work for me am i dumb

I made mistake of sending a weapon with conq heraldries though

granted its just a bit of honor

Have they reactivated war band transfers?

potent pivot

5k and gold

tbh

lime venture

I bought the gems with honor, should have just used gold

fathom moss
#

Supply crate farm nets you so many though

spring bough
potent pivot

full sockets is like 90k honor and Xgold

fathom moss
#

Half a day of farming you get 3gems and a sockets

spring bough
#

3.5k gold per viscous or so

fathom moss
#

Supply crates

potent pivot
#

it "not being timegated" has nothing to do with it

gilded gulch
#

I mean i'd consider it exploity if it gave you more conq gear

#

or something

spring bough
#

It just saved like tricks said a bunch of gold and about 90k honor. It’ll be a level field in a few days

potent pivot
#

i was hoping it was just a new change

#

though i knew it was likely it wasn't

gilded gulch
#

Yeah i probably shouldnt have sent on a weapon

potent pivot
#

but farming 90k honor every character every season is a bitch and a half

gilded gulch
#

unless using honor heraldries retains the socket too

potent pivot
#

they did

spring bough
#

And the fact transfers are off 🪦

gilded gulch
#

Is converting a s1 conq heraldry craft into an s2 honor heraldry craft

Thankfully my gemmed gear is now season 2 honor so they’ll keep the sockets to conquest level 😂

the 1600 achieve gives you a catalyst charge

this seems to be the sweaty guide

i made a guide

That isn’t a super sweaty guide it just says don’t spend ANYTHING until after you hit 1600

#

and full clear raid

deft spear
potent pivot
#

i wouldn't worry about it

#

most people aren't going to full clear the raid for pvp

deft spear
#

if i dont have algari gear, start with jewelry and just keep trying to upgrade purple/green heraldry?

chrome schooner
#

worrying about gear difference the first few weeks when seasons span months is not the move

potent pivot
severe helm
#

rating doesnt matter right now even in the slightest

potent pivot

buy honor gear with the proper stats, use your 9 free purple heraldries on rings/neck, etc

severe helm

as long as you arent so undergeared that youre just getting 1 shot it like doesnt matter

Why would they need to clear a raid?

please just shhh

I've been laughing at my guild all day for raiding

You can upgrade pve gear to pvp scaling, Zanaken

potent pivot

there's new items on the conquest vendor

to add pvp scaling to pve tier

potent pivot

for people who already do both content

severe helm

thats kinda nice

#

does it cost conquest?

gleaming pawn
#

Those lacquerware things you were laughing at yesterday

potent pivot
#

yes

severe helm
#

oooo

potent pivot
#

it costs conquest

severe helm
#

thats actually a huge qol for me

#

before I would have to keep two sets of gear

dapper chasm
#

I didn't realise it gave an actual advantage for PvE

potent pivot
#

it doesn't

severe helm
#

I dont think it does

dapper chasm
#

Just a boost to catch up

severe helm
#

it doesnt affect anything about its pve ilvl

potent pivot
#

it gives and advantage for week 1 if you get very lucky and get pve tier

gleaming pawn
#

Makes it so your pve piece scales to pvp but also can still be upgraded on the pve ilvl track

dapper chasm
potent pivot

it does not matter in the grand scheme of things

Love that dungeon

dark kernel
#

i lost 100 MMR only but who wants to win 20% of games for like 50 matches

potent pivot
gleaming pawn
#

Exactly

graceful ravine
gleaming pawn
#

On top of 3s being a lower pop bracket with Blitz and SS being so popular

dark kernel
#

It's just soul crushing

graceful ravine
#

Less players = Less MMR = More pros at relatively lower ratings

dark kernel
#

I'm done playing BGblitz because it's dog shit and shuffle is too long.

graceful ravine
#

My fav pvp season was SL S1 when they forced all PVE players to PVP for gear

#

PVP population 2-3x'ed lol

dark kernel
#

Sp I'm just sending rated 3s. But these matches at sub 1000 rating are harder than 2200+shuffle queuea

gilded gulch
#

I mean if you q 2200 shuffle last month of the season

potent pivot
#

@severe helm the drill worked, you're a hero salutege

gilded gulch
#

It's not considered high anymore

#

It's all relative tbh

#

Pretty sure ladder r1s are considered not good by some tourney players

#

r1s considered glads meh

#

etc

dark kernel
#

Your right it's not but the difference between 2200 MMR shuffle and 1600 rated 3s should be multiple standard deviations

graceful ravine
#

3s has become the brackets for the true sweats tho

#

the casual pvpers play shuffle or blitz

dark kernel
#

Like

deft spear
#

after the 9 heraldry, just have to use conquest at some point?

dark kernel
#

I respect 1800 rated 3s over 3000 BGblitz by far now

gilded gulch
#

Its the first week

dark kernel
#

And?

gilded gulch
#

Always been that way

#

You played 2k 3s first week there was a high chance of r1 teams.

gilded gulch
gilded gulch
#

Which means you either get games you win in opener or real players.

dark kernel
#

I went 3-15 so it spells it out pretty well.

potent pivot
#

@severe helm i think they hotfixed the motherlode thing already btw

severe helm
#

oh damn

#

rip

#

that was fast

gilded gulch
#

1800 is still top 50

#

On NA ladder

potent pivot
#

but yeah

#

would've been a nice catch up pieces on alts

gilded gulch
#

You mean the buggy wq?

potent pivot
#

the bfa motherlode wq yeah

gilded gulch
#

Yeah havent had time to get on ingame

potent pivot
#

trying to catch up a couple alts that i only ever pvp'd on

#

my dk and dh

gilded gulch
potent pivot
#

wonder if i should just do the campaign on them for the free pve gear pain

jolly sierra
potent pivot
#

meh

#

636 and under may as well be that free

jolly sierra
#

its obvious that it would be fixed xd

potent pivot
#

who cares

hidden moth
#

quests arnt giving sparks wtf

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

Me

#

I care

hidden moth
#

not getting any on the priest still but just got some from the care package thing

potent pivot
#

i guess they fucked something else

hidden moth
#

i jsut got some from this other quest

#

ig the tank quest that u hop into to do slime round up isnt a world quest?

potent pivot
#

dunno

#

i guess some guild already won the RWF and the whole guild got banned

#

gg omegalul

dreamy mason
#

how often do we use Mutilate VS FoK as Assa?

#

sorry if its a dumb question, but im new to Assa (or Rogue overall ..)

potent pivot
#

mutilate on 1 target

#

FoK on 2 or more targets (not including pets)

dreamy mason
#

awesome, thx!

#

In S2, do we play Fatebound or Stalker?

potent pivot
#

you can play either, but deathstalker is the better option

dreamy mason
potent pivot
#

i don't get what you mean

#

you apply deathstalker's mark with ambush

#

that is highest priority

dreamy mason
#

yes, but then when you consume a mark, it makes so your next mutilate does 50% more dmg

#

nothing we need to track?

potent pivot
#

so i guess its still fucked

potent pivot
#

all of assa's builders do piss damage

hidden moth
potent pivot
#

faster anyway

dapper chasm
#

Yoooo, I just got 9 free purple tokens

#

I only did like 5 games - this season is popping

potent pivot
#

they're guaranteed from 1 bg win

dapper chasm
#

I had honor already

spring bough
#

Has anyone tried cloak capping yet? It wouldn’t let me all night

dapper chasm
#

How much is it to boost up a ring?

potent pivot
#

idk like 4k

#

with the bloodstone/mats etc

dapper chasm
#

My bad - I meant how many purple tokens to turn last seasons ring into this seasons?

gleaming pawn
#

3

potent pivot
#

3 yeah

# gilded gulch https://check-pvp.fr/ranking

CR doesnt matter in terms of looking at ladder this early on

Every1 that was 3.1k last season is playing at 2300-2400 mmr 3s atm

the more games played the higher those r1s will climb

Like I was queuing with Reiler yday and had to go, but he kept queuing and hit 2350 simply cause he spam queued but I’m still 1600, but have same mmr as him

people can get 1800 right now going 50-50 at 1800-1900 mmr and avoid all those r1s v easily but be top 50 ladder

potent pivot
#

i wouldn't doubt it

jaunty osprey
potent pivot
#

why would you include pets

#

for fok

jaunty osprey
#

cause

#

hitting 1 player and 1 pet with FOK

dapper chasm
#

I'm gonna do both rings and boots then

jaunty osprey
#

will do more damage to that 1 player

dapper chasm
#

Assuming boots are 3 as well

jaunty osprey
#

than a mutilate would

potent pivot
jaunty osprey
#

Remember, FOK does increased damage when you have 2 ruptures out

potent pivot
#

sure

#

but its still less combo points

jaunty osprey
#

just crit smh

potent pivot
#

mutilate/fok damage is all trash

gilded gulch
#

and mmr is all over isnt it

jaunty osprey
#

There is like no placements

#

You can get matched up with same mmr

#

on 1st game

severe helm
#

blitz mmr is fucked it didnt really reset

jaunty osprey
#

even 3rd game etc

#

Ye same for 3s

severe helm
#

very dumb honestly

#

like I dont wana q over 3k day 1 with 0 cr

gilded gulch
#

When did they remove placements

jaunty osprey
#

This season was weird

#

Reiler, Flop, and I were all 3100 last season

#

Our 3rd game, we faced Montage, Mvq and Petkick

#

All of us at 2400 mmr

#

for 3s

gilded gulch
#

Granted i rarely q 3s week 1 ever

#

feels excessively sweat

jaunty osprey
#

Playing the game that we pay $15 a month for is sweat? 😭

gilded gulch
#

Well depends what you want week 1

#

ofc

jaunty osprey
#

Playing with homies on day 1

#

When no1 is burnt out yet

#

is a vibe

#

Solo Q on day 1 is more sweat than trying to queue w the boys

potent pivot
#

im already burnt out

#

i was pre burnt out pre patch drop

#

i pre burnt the patch

gleaming pawn
jaunty osprey
#

rip notrickz

#

we need a new pvp mod

potent pivot
#

i think i just can't do as many alts

#

it's a bit much

river pollen
#

damn my ring recraft upgrade lost sockets, i prob did something wrong lool

potent pivot
#

they fixed it

#

gg

jaunty osprey
#

Update pin

dapper chasm
potent pivot
#

true

jaunty osprey
dapper chasm
#

I don't have a neck from last season - can I make from scratch for 3?

jaunty osprey
#

use bloody token on off pieces going forward probably

#

eventually craft boot last

gilded gulch
#

Yeah you just dont get the fre sockets

dapper chasm
#

That's cool, getting 1k+ per BG

#

Wont take long

jaunty osprey
#

What are the bloody token stats?

potent pivot
#

anymore

#

on anything

gleaming pawn
#

And Blizz needs to remove any s2 sockets to make up for fixing it before I had time to recraft shit 😛

#

But classic Blizz, won’t do fuck all

potent pivot
#

they should've just left it in at this point

gilded gulch
#

Did they remove sockets on stuff you crafted?

potent pivot
#

when you fuck up something that big, you move on until next season

jaunty osprey
gilded gulch
#

Yeah thats only for gear crafted after fix.

#

Yep i fucked up not grinding enough honor prepatch

potent pivot
#

yes

gilded gulch
#

bloody token boots are haste vers

#

which is kinda meh

potent pivot
#

Do gloves

gilded gulch
#

cloak is like 2/3 mast>vers

jaunty osprey
#

GLOVES + CAPE -> BRACERS/BELT -> BELT/BRACER -> BOOT

#

for bloody token

#

week 1-2-3-4

dapper chasm
#

btw, is going 1x lens embellish and 1x woven a big downgrade?

jaunty osprey
#

Yes

#

You go 2x lens

dapper chasm
#

I really like having the xtra passive buff

potent pivot
#

Nah

#

Embellishments are so miniscule

jaunty osprey
#

Idk, I hit like 600k lens

opaque tendon
#

guys undead class is good in pvp? for rogue?

dapper chasm
#

I collect passive buffs as my weird thing

jaunty osprey
#

with 2x

potent pivot
#

Ye it’s just not a big difference

jaunty osprey
#

with 1x it’s directly half

potent pivot
#

Talking like 0.2% dps type shit

gilded gulch
jaunty osprey
#

you HARDLY have dusk up

#

at all

dapper chasm
#

You think so?

jaunty osprey
#

like uptime of it is non existent

#

yes

dapper chasm
#

I'm usually at max hp

gleaming pawn
gilded gulch

:)))

potent pivot
jolly sierra
dapper chasm

FYI you don't keep sockets

jolly sierra

i can take the role as class president here lol

dapper chasm

Just checked

potent pivot
gleaming pawn
potent pivot
#

How many big bugs is that now

#

5?

gleaming pawn
#

Sounds about right, yeah

potent pivot
#

Exploited HoF WF kill
Sockets
Sparks not awarded from WQ
Currency xfer duping

jaunty osprey
#

full conq gear

#

6 bugs 🙂

potent pivot
#

ultraomegalul ultraomegalul ultraomegalul ??????

#

S1 boxes awarded s2 gear or what

#

Lmfao

jaunty osprey
#

Server xfer resetting conq cap

potent pivot
#

Please tell me they fixed that

river pollen
#

would we also lose the new sockets to the recrafted gear if we recraft it again with conq heraldry

potent pivot
#

They fixed it right

jaunty osprey
#

Who knows

#

I can’t transfer any of my chars for fun to test

#

cause waiting for r1 titles

#

anyone got $25 and are bored?

potent pivot
#

I assume you cap conquest->transfer server->cap conquest->repeat

#

Happened on cata classic last year I think

jolly sierra
#

and ye, can do the same lol

#

but ngl ppl are quite pricks sometimes

spring bough
#

if i get banned im sending the bill

jaunty osprey
#

Im surprised that they dont have

spring bough
#

now that surely would get rolled back, right? lmao

jaunty osprey
#

the conq weps

#

if they earned that much conq

spring bough
#

do they have the achieive done?

jaunty osprey
#

maybe it resets achievement and season earned conq to 0? Idek

spring bough
#

would make sense it reset to 0 if he can get 1600 more conq on another server

#

achieve would still think hes at 1600/2500

#

500 bloody token WQ is active in hallowfall

potent pivot
#

Yep

#

Unfortunately sparks quest pretty much caps you

#

Some other regular WQs are also awarding 100 BT

jaunty osprey
#

All regular WQs give 100 BT!

#

with WM on

potent pivot
#

Some of them show it in the tooltip

#

Some haven’t given me any

#

It’s been inconsistent since patch

gleaming pawn
#

I wasn’t getting sparks from several undermine WQ last night too. It’s all just buggy as hell

severe helm
#

thats actually

#

so fucking stupid

#

that they would patch that out

#

but everyone who did it keeps it

#

0/10 classic blizzard L

dapper chasm
#

So were people just talking out their asses about this keeping sockets thing or did I fuck it somehow?

severe helm
#

horrible leadership jeez thats just dumb as all hell

severe helm
#

it was real

#

then they patched it

dapper chasm
#

This is day 1, how can I miss it?

severe helm
#

so now youre 50000 honor behind them

dapper chasm
#

Oh, no, I'm still rich from cata - I buy the gems

severe helm
#

still gotta farm that honor

#

5000 per gem

dapper chasm
#

I ENJOY BGs

#

2k per gem on Stormscale

severe helm
#

5k per socket...

jaunty osprey
#

It’s the same on every server

dapper chasm
#

Yeah, I'll be doing BGs even at cap

severe helm
#

yeah its an item from the vendor bro

jaunty osprey
#

It isnt server wide prices

severe helm
#

well thats just stupid lol

jaunty osprey
#

it’s region wide

severe helm
#

why wouldnt you spend your cap

gilded gulch
#

You had to upgrade to s2 gear before they fixed it.

#

to keep sockets

severe helm
#

also again the SOCKET is still 5k honor

dapper chasm
jaunty osprey
#

5k honour is like nothing

dapper chasm
#

I already got one I know

jaunty osprey
#

in BGB it’s slow but if you shuf or arena

dapper chasm
severe helm
jaunty osprey
#

you get it so fast

#

with honour flask popped

severe helm
#

I play like a few hours per week

jaunty osprey
#

So do I

dapper chasm
#

So does everyone

jaunty osprey
#

I work 7 AM - 9 PM

severe helm
#

lol no you dont

jaunty osprey
#

???

severe helm
#

bro you had 6 rogues

#

with hundreds of games each

dapper chasm
#

What is this convo? Who plays the least?

severe helm
#

im just saying people play different amounts

jaunty osprey
#

Over 6 month span, 400 games played per rogue is nothing wat

#

I play 3 hrs a day

severe helm
#

so while it might feel like honor cap is quick for you

#

it might not be for others

severe helm
gilded gulch
#

You know whats so rare to find

severe helm
#

3 hrs a day is a lot

dapper chasm
#

Again, BGs and Arena are pretty much all I do

gilded gulch
#

The crate that gives one of the socket items

#

I only got one by accident

#

thinking it was a regular crate

severe helm
#

im telling you that some people take longer to get them

#

and 5k is not a tiny amount of honor

dapper chasm
#

Fuck those guys

severe helm
#

I am those guys lol

gleaming pawn
spring bough
#

"kir is a mess" on the comments so updates will come lol

potent pivot
#

yeh idk how much u can trust those WAs

agile kite
#

is outlaw that much harder than assa?

severe helm
#

I wouldnt trust them

potent pivot
#

to be up to date with reroll rules

severe helm
#

kir rules are weird for when to roll

#

best to just read outlaw-faq

gilded gulch
#

yeah i just saw it in the dead of night

severe helm
#

theyre simple to understand if you use zac's buff tracking wa that colors the buffs

#

just takes a bit of getting used to

jaunty osprey
#

A lot of the ones in Outlaw channel are updated fairly fast

#

with the reroll rules

agile kite
#

how fucked am i if i dont use WA on outlaw

#

i never use WA

jaunty osprey
#

you don’t NEED to

#

But it helps

dapper chasm
#

POP QUIZ: What is the name of that gem you can only have 1 of?

severe helm
#

like not any wa? I mean youll survive if you play HO

jaunty osprey
#

if you can use your eyes, you’re fine

agile kite
#

whats HO

jaunty osprey
#

Hidden oppo

severe helm
#

hidden opportunity

agile kite
#

damn dude im about to have to watch 30 outlaw videos tonight to learn this

severe helm
#

its the talent build that uses ambush for outlaw

#

there arent any videos for outlaw really

#

unfortunately

agile kite
#

i am FUCKED

#

:3

severe helm
#

wowhead guide is good

agile kite
#

i want 2100 in blitz for weapons this season, thought outlaw seemed fun but if its too high iq im going assa

severe helm
#

its not

#

but assa is easier yeah

#

they removed a lot of the free stuff outlaw had in blitz

#

so you cant fast cap anymore

#

so you have to just play it like a rogue and win fights and shit

agile kite
#

mewo needs some color discord rank name or something, mewo i think you answer 90% of the time ive had questions here

gleaming pawn
severe helm
jaunty osprey
#

Well Enduring is bugged for most CCs

Enduring doesn’t work on stuns that deal damage

hes not wrong

jaunty osprey
dapper chasm
#

Sexy bracers finished

severe helm

Actually insane how fast rogues move in stralth with it

#

run speed is nearly mount

severe helm
#

yeah esp as NE

jaunty osprey
#

Stealth*

agile kite
#

is there a shothand for outlaw gearing rn? or should i just look at what ladder is using

severe helm
#

I think im at like 165%

These are the recommended stat priorities for each spec in PvP. Please keep in mind that having suboptimal stats on some pieces such as tier set pieces is not the end of the world.

Subtlety: Vers>Mastery>Crit>Haste
Assassination: Vers>Mastery>Crit=/=Haste
Outlaw: Vers>Haste=/=Crit>Mastery
You likely want to stack at least 20% Haste on Outlaw for an extra GCD during ADR/Crackshot windows. Take 'em by Surprise gives you 10% during CS windows, so you only need 10-15% from gear.

agile kite
#

based yet again

severe helm
#

just follow that

#

for embelishments id recommend the gem one that procs and does damage

smh

severe helm

I personally put the embelishment on belt/boots cuz I think theres only mastery boots for leather

jaunty osprey
#

nope

#

bloody token boots

#

haste vers

agile kite
#

!talents

jaunty osprey
#

and there is i think smth else too for conq

#

not just vers mast

spring bough
#

6 casts of KS for 12 mil exact

severe helm
spring bough
#

so 2 mil average per cast LMAo

severe helm
#

in the long term that is

#

you dont need that many items with haste

#

esp if youre playing HO

jaunty osprey
#

ya but atm, it’s better to just get bloody token boots

severe helm
#

so I do crit/vers boots crafted and crit vers belt

#

yeah for sure

jaunty osprey
#

and use heraldry for jewellery

severe helm
#

Im too lazy to optimize the gearing path

agile kite
#

does outlaw seem any better in s2?

severe helm
#

I just optimize for fully geared

jaunty osprey
#

because u will outgrow use of bloody token

#

so fast

severe helm
#

so you do more cleave damage than before

jaunty osprey
#

well doing it ur way makes u actually fall behind

severe helm
#

but its early so its hard to say

jaunty osprey
#

because you’re gonna be spending conq on tier slots

severe helm
jaunty osprey
#

so you have nothing to spend your bloody tokens on

#

since there are no rings and neck

severe helm
#

I mean you can just honor boots

#

with embelishment

#

instead of bloody token boots

#

with no embel

jaunty osprey
#

ya but you shouldnt be spending epic heraldry on boots/belt so early

severe helm
#

you dont need to

sturdy canopy
severe helm
#

you can just make them as honor crafted

jaunty osprey
#

Well embellishment scales with ilvl

severe helm
jaunty osprey
#

so

#

you want embellish on your epics

#

lol

severe helm
#

id rather bloody token some other piece

#

like cloak or whatever

#

something that I wont have an embelishment on

jaunty osprey
#

nah I’m saying cause you said you put embellishment on belt/boot

severe helm
#

yeah

jaunty osprey
#

im just putting it out there

#

That no1 should copy you

severe helm
#

where are you saying to put embel?

jaunty osprey
#

for that

dapper chasm
#

What tinkers are the least terrible for BGs/WPvP?

#

I like alarm-o

jaunty osprey
#

rings and necks

severe helm
#

thats bad for outlaw

#

cuz you want more vers than that

past pagoda
#

whats the first main piece you guys are buying for pvp with conquest?

dapper chasm
#

Chest

severe helm
#

you want as few pieces to be even secondaries

#

as possible

#

unless you play KiR then you need it

#

but as HO you want to avoid crafted neck/rings

jaunty osprey
#

idk if the math adds up, especially when simming

past pagoda
#

chest the way to go then for now?

jaunty osprey
#

you’re gonna hit vers DR values this season

jaunty osprey
#

2 crafted jewellery is fine

severe helm
#

didnt matter

#

vers is still better past 30%

#

the dr isnt that big

#

outlaw secondaries are just that bad

jaunty osprey
#

I don’t think sim will agree w that

severe helm
#

crit MIGHT be worth it this season

#

but in the sim

#

it isnt

#

it does unfortunately haha

#

you can check the !fuu bis gear for outlaw

jaunty osprey
#

dam

potent pivot
#

outlaw stats are unironically trash in pve too, its bad

severe helm
#

yep

#

even without the crit nerf

#

so WITH the pvp crit nerf

#

I just dont see how vers isnt our best stat even to 40%

sturdy canopy
# jaunty osprey haste vers

Surely you want some haste on outlaw anyway so buy boots and maybe cloak with bloodys
Get 2 crafted rings with verse
Spend conq on tier
Seems the way for me

severe helm
#

but that doesnt tkae much

dapper chasm
#

Do we still lose socket if we upgrade 665 gear to epic?

potent pivot
#

no

spring bough
#

kir trickster is so busted

what?

its not even funny how busted this is

its only if you got o honor???
