Other classes can't
Yeah the last time I played my WW monk was DF S4 but I just 1 shot my way to 2.4 like it was nothing
Thats the only non rogue spec ive ever played to 2.4
Nice
most other classes/specs at least
Yeah
Some lobbies after the first couple round I can already tell my goal is to just break even
Double paladin hunter lobbies and shit
There are lobbies and i load in, see the comp, and immediately think "ok just gotta get out of this without losing rating"
The warlock i queue with got rank 1 in season 1 and he had a lobby with 3 shamans in it
He said it was the worst lobby he's ever played
3 windshears
3 grounding totems
Even just one decent shaman is a nightmare for destro
Yeah
My thought is usually "I waited an hour for this shit??"
Lmao
that kinda why i stopped playing my ww this season
I can't stand the spec without keefers
every spec has bad lobbies but some specs has like 60-70% chance of getting pure horse shit
It feels awful
Or frost mage
youre just taking the cock
Yeah people dont know how bad it really is for WW
It has a reputation for being extremely mobile
Its really not
Its mobility is very much geared towards running away from things
Not connecting and sticking
ww without turbo omega nucleur burst is just useless
i hate this brawler version
also
pog
Nice!
It NEEDS targeted mobility. I also dont like how they made Slicing Winds a mandatory talent. Because I vastly prefer serpent kick for mobility.
well good news
slicing winds is now directly baked into conduit for next expac

enjoy
Yeah I read about that
they removed the one talent everyone loved
the zappy zap
and kept slicing winds
incompetance knows no bounds
But like just give us keefers back it feels horrible not having it
everytime theres some "use utility for damage" button it always ends up like piss
idk why blizzard never learns
either vanish for damage, momentum dh or slicing winds
they actually already learned this with chi torpedo in WOD
but what can ya do
I actually do genuinely wonder what their thought process is sometimes. They'll put changes through that the overwhelming majority of the player base is against
i mean they got rid of wounds for unholy dk
Like some shit is like how could they have ever thought that was a good idea
my head is dizzy and i lost 100 rating cause mages and rets cant press their buttons 🙁
so like ???????
Which is insane lmao
I applaud any healer who can stay below 2k rating
below or above
yes
Also I everyone decided spell warden was too good for uhdk the anti-wizard class so they removed it
who can stay sane* below 2k rating
Then they just randomly give it to ret paladins
they SPECIFICALLY removed ret's ability to wipe off their own teammates dots with blinding light
like it was deliberate
cause pink class has to be special
meanwhile song of chi ji still wipes out dots
lol
and im pretty sure incap wipes outs dots still
just training wheels upon training wheels
When TWW was being developed and the hero talents were made available to preview, we saw that deathstalker mark for assa rogue was applied with ambush and literally every assa rogue i know and a shit ton on the forums all said "tie this to garrote instead of ambush it'll be way better" but they didnt change it and now in Midnight theyre changing it to be applied with garrote instead but my question is why did we have to wait for another expansion for that change to happen when everyone was asking for it since the beta of the current expansion????
cause blizzard needs to give dev time to mages
repentance, freezing trap, blind, incap, sheep wipe out dots iirc, not sure about seduction
how does some1 die from my cape procing
when i dont even have them targeted
bleeds?
your dots
funny asf
The best is when you die but later your sudden demise procs. So like youre dead but you killed someone
blinding light got the special treatment though
monkaHmm
They need to give that treatment to song of chi
Its so annoying
Big ass pink cloud just strolling through the map cleansing my damage off everyone
i bet my ass they forgot that spell even existed
Ya know what's bullshit? So if you cast song of chi, it spawns the cloud but if you get pally glared even after you've already cast it, it'll "miss" as it goes through people
Its the dumbest interaction ever
Like the glare makes it miss even after you've cast and spawned the cloud wtf
Yeah I know about that one
bad enough they can bop it off
glare makes traps already on the ground miss lol
Because they have a history of not wanting to listen
The funniest shit with karma is how you need to be facing your target to use it. Ive killed so many monks by stunning them, then shadowstepping them so when they trinket i can restun them before they have time to turn around and karma me lmfao
I played a bit of classic and the main recurring theme from classic boomers is that retail wow basically went off the rails because they implemented all the QoL stuff players wanted etc.
When the reality is the biggest issue with retail for a long time has been that blizzard STOPPED listening to players
They decided a while ago that they know best and we are gonna play the game how they want us to play it
You'd think that they would prefer to grow the game and rake in more money from more players as opposed to flexing on us
See you guys on ptr
Just saw this as well. I'm going to play the beta for sure
3-3 all morning cause of stupid bullshit
Gonna headshot with my boomstick
rets not using freedome
monks not casting their bubble shit until 1%
fun times today fun times
no one pressing buttons they have gotta love it
Just don't get silenced bro
Look on the bright side. At least youre not losing rating
That never works
I got banned for a week. Not silenced. Banned. And had to play my wife's account recently because stupid people still dont know how to play Warsong Gulch even though its been in the game for 21 years.
Blitz is truly the ban magnet
Every rogue here that's gotten banned has done it through blitz
Probably cause so many reports come in at once
Like your whole team mass reports you
And it's joever
3k mmr and my team is 6v1-ing a warlock in the middle of the map while the EFC just prances by
Yea I played a normal BG just now for the conquest on my main
And it was a katmongu
We're losing badly and this warlock is like we gotta get more points and shit
Meanwhile he's less than half of everyone's damage
So I called him out for doing healer damage on a Z axis map
And he's like I'm picking up the orbs bro
I check the score board and he picked up one orb whole game

I just can't with BGs
I played a 10 man rbg last week and this was the result. Low rated but still. Its funny because the AI players in comp stomp still usually score more points than these people did against us
I got my battlemaster/justicar
That's all the BGs for a lifetime
One wrong move and it's a mass report
Clowned on these losers. 2620mmr and they didn't score 1 point on us
Love to see it
One more of those and he might remember he can wall in stuns
Not enough training wheels for pink class
biggest mistake to type in wow haha
ive never got banned in like 14 years of playing wow
before i qd blitz
Me neither!
same
but ppl r so soft nowadays
nah disc throwing this lobby
u say 1 thing u get censored insta

tell me aboutt it lmao
I cant type what I said
Blitz is where Buddhist monks go to test their resolve before they attain enlightenment
Can't imagine playing that as a main game mode
Like omnivores
we went 11-10 in 3s and the first game was at 2.2k mmr lol
i just know that preso still so mad
RBG players have always been the most toxic tho tbh
Thats insane we had a positive win rate as triple rogue
Like Bayter lol
literally had a shaman do this to me. "inc ban for your name" and i got kicked MID blitz mid game and had to namechange Vancleef
LOL
I think i get so fired up over blitz because I sit by far the longest queue times for it. Like the game i got banned from i sat over a 3 hour queue. And im fine with losing like thats just part of the game. But losing to completely troll, stupid bullshit after sitting a queue that long is infuriating
what makes me laugh is if you play a rogue in blitz when you lose it's always rogues fault
people that do not play OBJECTIVES on OBJECTIVE games should get banned from blitz
people think we can still cloak cap and do shit like solo a paladin or BM for a node
Yeah theres this expectation that "a good rogue can carry the team" so if your team lost that means you couldn't carry them which means you must not be a good rogue
tbf you can carry as rogue
Yeah to an extent
some people too heavy tho
Not when my team is 6v1 vs a warlock all game
my favorite is when i do something like go LH, there is a ret there, the enemy healer PEELS to LH and my team still loses WW
like how do u lose with a number and healer advantage
i dont understand
Or like when I ping that my base is getting hit and nobody comes
And l lose it
And get flamed
But I got hit by boomie/hunter
I cant spin that forever
What amazes me is sometimes I actually do manage to spin 1v3 for a really long time and my team somehow doesnt cap anything extra
Like im tying up 3 people on their team
And im the only one on our team tied up
So we should have a numbers advantage on the rest of the map
But we still dont get anything
yea blitz is shite tbh
blitz is for people that can't achieve elite in solo shuffle
no flame
I mean you're right
i love outlaw for blitz cause its fast
but sin >>> cause of healer silences
just destroyed a whole team on the crystal cart map
Mines and deephaul are the 2 best maps for assa because the objective forces the enemy team to stack for you inside the carts
dropped both the enemy healers so fast
just back to back to back silences and stuns lol
8-0 and 1700 on blitz as sin
Have you not played assa before?
first season since shadowlands
Its a lot easier than the pirate gameplay isnt it
maybe lmao
Sin is just miles better in solo Q man
Yeah its easily the best solo queue rogue spec
i'm kinda sad, feels like the last outlaws are falling 
It’s just fun to play the game and not wanna jump off a bridge
Outlaw I do so much work in shuffle only to 3-3 becuase I can’t close a game out on my own
Vs I can just 
same with sub
As sin and win
Sub is even worse than outlaw for solo queue i think
My main rogue always pirate. But 9/100 wins on assa and I’ll be back
Yeah if your team plays well sub can be really good but how often does that happen in solo
I can’t get out of the 2.1-2.2 hell Elo to find out
i wonder if sub would feel much nicer in shuffle with blades on 1m cd
i still play outlaw but like one game here n there already got elite w it for the season so im coasting till midnight
Gotta be 3k + bgb mmr for it to happen lol
Feel like it would be broken at that point
Also @outer sky I was wrong earlier
Cold blood making your envenom match your last coin doesn’t set it to the one you got the highest streak on
If u use kb and get 2x edge case (head and tail x2)
Then do cold blood envenoms
Both envenoms coins will also be edge case coins
At that point u have a guarantee lucky 7 and are at 6/7 on the other side to also get another lucky coin XD

Just pray you win that 50/50 coin flip
go downstairs hit the bathroom fill my water annnnnnnddddd both ques popped
gz brother
i was in the 1700s for i think 4 hrs
oh @outer sky i played some assa yesterday, was alright think i was trying to hard tho was committing vanishes when things were off stun DR etc then i'd burn all my vanishes and have nothing left 🤣
sub/outlaw brain
Yeah staggering your vanishes is important you cant burn em all too fast
Make sure that you always vanish then meld then vanish
Or
Meld then vanish then vanish
Basically just dont use both your vanish charges before you meld
9-0 blitz as sin
Because vanish can only cooldown 1 charge at a time so you want vanish and meld cooling down
yea i'd meld first but i was burning meld/vanishes just to reapply big bleeds without KB or DM etc so wasn't really making much pressure
trying to play assa like sub
when i could just pump
You can vanish without those things but typically you only would if youre trying to spam CC people so your teammate can pump
Like if you see your boomie just incarned or something
yea played to 2.3/2.4mmr last night not really understanding anything and pressing buttons haha
from my lack of play time i definatly prefer destiny defined though felt a lot smoother
Inevitable End takes some getting used to but it is much more damage
felt with inevitable end i was trying to squeeze too much into a kidney
But destiny defined gives you a bit more control over your burst
Oh, this is huge. Im going to blow your mind right now. Coming from playing sub this will seem earth shattering so get ready. Okay so as assa, someone doesnt actually NEED to be stunned for you to kill them
Rofl
huh
I used to main sub rogue too and when i swapped to assa I was making the mistake holding damage until the kill target was stunned
You dont really have to
You mentioned trying to fit too much into a kidney
But you dont really need to worry about it
If kidney ends its still kinda fine
If that happens as a sub rogue youre just screwed though
I’ve def ended games where I just sent a dm and kingsbane go with no available stuns and they just died to damage
Beta starts 11.11 ❤️ 🎉
Yeah same
That pretty much never happens as sub though
A lot of people when they switch grief themselves trying to play a little too much around stuns like they would as sub
Beta actually starts whenever season 1 starts
game changer haha ill give it a go again tonight
You'll pick it up fast its way easier than what youre already doing
Just a bit different
yea that's what my problem was i think just trying to outplay everybody in the lobby when i could just be doing damage
do i need big garrote's to kill or nah?
or i guess im just vanishing for master assassin
No you dont
Realistically you vanish to CC
I dont think vanishing for damage alone is ever worth it unless youre CERTAIN that doing so gets you a kill
Also extra damage from garrote from stealth is nerfed in pvp
Its only 20%
Meaningful but not gamebreaking
roger dodger think I have assa sussed
ill log assa after 3s
oh actually i have 1 more question
is it worth crimson tempest on 1 target or just send the envenom
sin rotation ez asf lol
I sometimes put it up on 1 target to help proc sudden demise. I dont prio it on 1 target but if I have nothing else to press, I will put it up. Dont feel like you need it to send your go though
yea think I was also prioritising it way too high then and not pressing envenom enough
id say i dont really know how to play it still and im owning
Yeah so I queued my low rated rogue in 3s the other night and we won 13 games in a row. Look how long they lasted
You still run system shock into non disarm lobbies?
Yep
Im NOT saying to do it though
Im the only one doing that
Try it if you want but its not official advice
bleeds up then to the shiv, DM, KB, CB envenom combo and thats it lololol
I’ll cast it on 1 tar if they are in narnia and I got the dot active on other targets
Also why system shock
More dam?
Also big shoutout to the absolute creatures playing tanks in arena
Thanks I feel recognized
Lmao
Nothing terrible or anything but I do hope they all stub their toe kinda hard whenever they get up from their desk
this is how i feel about healers who dont leave when their dps dies
like are we rlly gonna make me wait 5 mins for dampening to kill you when you an di both know you already lost
maybe im just an assa rogue now...
Whats this?
Ahh
This is the build i want to use, to be more bursty ass rogue, but how exactly do i get the big envemons with it?
kb gives u 2x edge case
inevitable end makes ur envenom guaruntee match the last flip
so dm 2x kb 2x venom 1x venom 1x for 6x edge case coins
i actually prefer without the envenom talent
wtaf is shadow priest
Cool !
My friend and I have been trying to figure out RLX with assa, my main confusion is how much I need to stun for my lock
Are you able to shine some light on that, please?
Every DR until I have 1 vanish left?
It basically amounts to 10-15% more envenom damage which isnt much on the overall meters but its a good bit more damage when you're bursting. I think people would be taking it more if it was worded that way
What spec is your lock playing?
Destro
Up until now we've been trying to send a vanish every minute to align kingsbane with malevolence, but we're not getting much done
Sometimes I'll send another if I feel it's a good punish, etc, but it's not feeling super offensive
My concern is I'll send all my vanishes and die aha
Play to aids the healer as much as possible. You can even do your go on him while your lock and healer delete the dps
And thats not even a great lobby for you lol
loving assa
maybe red name now
wtf
this priest rendrys lost 1st round with me disc assa arms vs ret ww disc
said "1 cc" bc i died when he was cc'd but had 0 vanish left no cloak evasion etc
had to hit him with a "1 cc" when i ran throuhg his ww hp bar the very next round when he was in a singular kidney. then a nice lil "1 cc" after i 5-1 the fuckin lobby
thought about saying "heal diff"
lmfaooo
I don’t need 10-15% when I can just 200%
Memeing
MM in shuffle goes brrrr
Took a 7.4m aimed shot on my lock last night on an opener one round
Cost me the 6-0
Oof
So annoying to fight mm on my lock purely because we’re both trying to do the same thing but only one of us has to deal with interrupts
Do you guys hardly ever use ambush/mutilate?
Never ambush but I have an ongoing issue with pressing mutilate too much when I’m out of everything
I press it if I need combo points and I can’t fok or garrote
Wouldn’t say never but just not a lot
which one ambush or mut?
Im watching this guy play to learn, and he dooesnt even have mut on his keybinds lol
Reached LEGEND again this season with my Assassination Rogue in Solo Shuffle!
This video is a compilation of the games and wins from my Legend push — fast rounds, clean kills, and plenty of one-shots.
Assa Rogue felt insane this season.

But I’m never pressing ambush from stealth
he has ambush, but i never see him press it
Yea I mean as assa if you’re playing fatebound you really never need ambush
But it also doesn’t take any time to just make a macro with both
I recently rearranged my keybinds though so I wasn’t as tempted to spam mutilate
excuse me
is there any reason why 1 weapon is more expensive than the other 4?
mace is 1225 conquest while the other weaps are 875
thats kinda dumb
it IS on his bars btw
Mut? where
on Q
thats shiv no
no
his shiv is s-S
look at how Q turns into Ambush when he stealths
it just has shiv icon
and how it legit says "mutilate" on the button 
its just a macro
some pvpers set up their bars so that they have 2 icons for every cooldown
replacing the icon of basic globals with CD icon/tooltips
so they can more easily see in their peripheral vision
pick G for gouge
_>
time to push shuffle and be depressed again
Seems like most assas are p good
Think you mean - time to push outlaw and be depressed again

Every now and then I’ll start queueing sub and then realize assa kinda has better burst and get sad and log my warlock
i pushed healing priest to almost 2100, it was pretty fun
i loved the instant queues
@outer sky @spring bough about to get home to smash some 3s
i will try learning assa this season too
i have the gear
My main is still 2k… hasn’t Q’d since week 1. Meanwhile I have an alt rogue at 2600
Q alt be happy
Diff specs ?
cant tonight sorry boss
Hows the sub experience
Looks miserable
Don't think I've seen more than 3 sub rogues the whole season
Actually seen more outlaws
only true gigachads can carry the mantle
F
3 too many
Nahj must have 20 inch arms
Hows outlaw so far on alpha
I saw someone testing it on stream and it seems the bugs from day 1 are still there
When did you start playing outlaw
Newer outlaw players will hate it
It looks good on Alpha
Not perfect but the energy issue is like 99% solved
i thought we already saw the midnight illusion
or am i thinking of the tww s3 one
that could be it actually 
either that or its from a raid boss or something
hopefully its the pvp one tho
@grave basin

if thats the pvp illusion you can bet your ass i will 

I will say
Idt I earned a single enchant this expac
They've all been bad
And pvp this expac has been bad in general
everything's been so ass
rewards, gameplay etc
It's a shame too because PvE I feel has been pretty solid
If you only pve this expac is probably really good for you
i did a little bit in s1, and a bit more in s2 i think?
it was ok, but its still just pve
And rogue got minim changes which didn't help
delves were sorta cool, going through them for the first time at least
once you have lvl 11 delves on farm and good gear they are boring
I think delves are the thing I ran the most and that was just for mog farming
I've hit no achievements on any character this season yet
I really should get geared for brawlers guild though
I imagine they're gonna tune the fights for mid-high ilvl
Legion
You'll probably like it
I hope so, if not rogue rework failed 2x
It's barebones outlaw
Wouldn't consider the DF mid expansion one a rework anyway
Revamp at best
They just left it completely unfinished
It has no vanish cdr
And no garrote silence
So wtf does it do now
I meant gameplay
Skirmisher
Probably another sustain spec
Play with other rot specs
Since dps CDs have been culled and healing overall has been reworked
Wouldn't assa work better with rot specs
Isn't AR still balanced around 90% uptime?
No
Really
Ye
I don't think we have that info yet
in Midnight?
But we know for sure uptime has been dramatically reduced
Think I saw whaaz showing it off and there's a choice node of 15% damage amp or longer duration AR
Yeah, it's an interesting node for sure
I think the duration is a pve talent though
Since we need more up front dsmage
Yea it's good to have that choice for bursty profile
Idk if verse stacking is gonna be a thing but if they're immortal in midnight theyre looking interesting
It's not. We lost Ruthless Precision so we gotta make up for lost crit.
And then the haste tax ofc
I think it makes sense since outlaw is sustain spec with some abilities striking twice
But it shouldn't be this bad
Well they could make it thematic
And just increase its damage value
Like what they did to ww mastery
Just flat increase its value by like 30% going into 11.2
Making it a giga stacking secondary
That'd be interesting
It should just be tuned better. It's best not to change things just for the sake of changing things because that rarely works out.
Or increase its based attack power scaling
Since Mastery works on bandages, toilet paper, and prayers
Like it does .1% Attack power on its scaling
But it clearly hits harder than that
Even 10% mastery effectively doubles how strong Main Gauche is
Vers affects everything thou
Like it's such a simple tuning knob
Whereas Mastery has to affect something that does like 3% - 4% of our damage
yk what would be cool? sabre slash and bleed dot for outlaw
By the tip you hit 60% mastery its like 11%
You just want SoD combat tank
Let's be real, it didn't really matter 
Their math guys can just increase main gauche damage such that 1% mastery > 1% verse up to softcap
But they won't
Any spec that stacks verse is just DOA when everyone is fully geared
Like 50% haste makes Main Gauche machinegun
Well they're trying to "force" crit to be more of a thing now
Across the board
Like arms now has so many crit modifiers
Ye
Sub has haste and crit
Its good that all secondary stats matter
Otherwise we end up with what Outlaw is rn which is stacking mechanical hardcaps like in Remix
Then dumping Mastery
Isn't outlaw the worst PI target in the game
Yes
not quite(?)
Who's worse
well sub was worse iirc
It's one of them but not the worst
now that they changed it idk

But no one PIs tanks
Lol
i'm surprised its as bad for fury/havoc as it is
Yeee
Hopefully it changes (it won't)
Sub probably won't even play the haste stacking talents if I'm seeing correctly @potent pivot
Since it desyncs your CDs
True?
This was changed I'm pretty sure
i highly doubt we won't use them
highly highly doubt
either they will just fix the desync
or we will just deal with it
if there's no CDR from spending combo points, we have no choice
You'd have to play around certain breakpoints which is gonna be ass though
Just .. don't spec it

i mean thats just the reality now

Now as in 11.2 or now as in midnight
i hate it more than anyone trust me lmao
midnight
but even right now its probably good to run some haste for dance duration
Watch Turbo change from War / EnhSham to Outlaw / EnhSham lol
Yeee
i'm surprised to see no one has tried running some haste with the change
Like actually good ones
Heroic Strike casually doing 1/3 someone's HP
Even from a talent tree perspective
They were whining about the last gate before the capstones being 2 pointers
They changed it to 1 pointers this build
In the general class tree
So now they have freedom to pick diff utility nodes
That's so dumb and op
Doesn't have to be Ret lvl
But still really dumb and OP
Shaman class tree from like first draft of DF alpha
Considering Warriors smack hard af
Was alrdy really good
In terms of pathing
And picking up all your utility
You can path horizontally almost everywhere
And that was built like 4 years? ago
I mean look at how many times the hunter class tree completely changed
Not even just a small node change here or there
I mean completely redone
Interesting
?...
we were talking about the things coming in midnight
Yeah
not the change that went live already
unless they already changed something on the alpha, i'm pretty positive there was a desync issue with the new haste CDR talents
like from Blades or sec tech, idr
This was in phase 4
Does one of them get cdr?
No
That's what it looks like lol
thats still dumb
no
sec tech has always had cdr based on combo points, like dance
now idk wtf they are thinking
first it was hasted cdr dance+symbols, now its hasted duration dance+cdr symbols
I'm so lost
Sec tech has hasted CD
idk if they even know what they're thinking
By default
??
Bro found the plot
Wha
Yeah hasted sec tech cdr is baseline
They can't just put everything under the same system ?
It has to be this convoluted mess
Sec tech has hasted cdr baseline in its ability, symbols gets its cdr from a seperate haste talent, dance duration is increased by haste
yeah it all just sounds horrid
And none of this is supposed to desync ?
??
I said that not knowing how bad they made it
It's so over for sub
I thought I did but I didnt
My guess is that they did this to make it easier to tune? Idk
I've no idea how to justify it
How tf is that easier
they probably changed the Dance talent to fix the desync
But that's probably assuming you alrdy have a certain haste amount
but regardless they're just trying to make haste valuable for sub
they should just make all CDs effected by haste, including Blades
then just tune the damage from there
that way nothing desyncs
Too hard sorry
I can't believe we got told "if your spec isnt performing well, just play the better spec" by blizzard
I mean they aren't consistent with that philosophy
If you're a one DPS spec your one DPS spec has to be good
Meanwhile ww??
We just don't exist??
Target caps hello?
Yea but they specifically said Ret had to be good
Cause rets can't respec
Ok then in PvP on what planet is ww even close to Ret or even sp
Ret is blizzards star child so that's expected they bring up ret
When was the last time pvp had tuning in general
They brought up Ret as an example of a hybrid with only one DPS spec
And like poor babies they can't just respec if Ret is bad
Uwu give them every healer cd known to man
Holy Ritual healing for 2000% spell power now
Eye for An Eye rn does 35% spell power
Why? Hunters can't attack in turtle and mages can't attack in block
Why are they even allowed to do damage in bubble
Like at all
Because rets supposed niche is to keep their teammates alive but in reality it's to be S tier all the time.
Frankly I just don't think anything about ret redeems it
@vocal surge fuck i fell asleep lol I was groggy and drained all day. That always happens to me the day after I get drunk
Aye
i just lost a game on my evoker because my healer tried to trinket my time stop
holy fuck
can't wait to play an even worse version of sub rogue
haste, very cool 🧢
will the beta have arena?
tbf as long as they tune numbers alright i don't think it will be as bad as everybody is making it out to be theres a lot of QOL changes also
yes
nice, i really want to see how the DR/stun changes play out
im not gonna play it but im sure i'll hear all about it in this channel
Lol devoker is so much fun
With this big deep breath build
And divide and conquer
Every 45s you deep breath and get like 50 cooldowns
@pliant lintel how'd the assa games go yesterday?
yo man, yea alright tbf i played like 4 games only think i worked assa out now
had a lobby of win trading and 1 lobby where people were dying in 1 min with CD's
but that's shuffle
Yeah everyone deals with that shit in shuffle is what it is
I know what imma use my chips on
Gonna do M+ gloves, those boots from Mythic difficulty
and maybe a trinket
actually nvm
the dagger from Floodgate
That should eliminate effectively all the RNG
Bro I was in here at like 11pm and u were chatting have u gone to bed wtf lol
Lol
Yes
its almost my bed time too
Why should the entire player base be held hostage by a small handful of degenerate try-hards competing in tournaments nobody even cares about? It doesn’t even have to be this way. They could tune on the live servers but leave tournament realms as they were until whatever stupid competition is happening is over. But one way or another, just ba...
Support the cause
Did u write that post
Yes
I think we'll see 1 more round of changes. Voidweaver basically demands it
This
maybe they normally tune today right?
fridays i mean
Its Halloween and also my father's 92nd birthday
Yeah
if we get tuning it will be either today then or in 3 weeks
Cool : )
Happy Hallobirthdayween to your father
I will of course observe my religious holiday, Fluttershy Friday
on the positive note of voidweaver at least shuffles queues are quicker haha
4 captures, trying to fight for my outlaw rights
Yeah thats actually something ive been thinking about. But obviously we cant have any 1 healing spec be this dominant. However it does make me think maybe buffing the others would be a better solution since voidweaver being broken has done a ton of good for queue times
yea ngl i dont want them to nerf vw
rogue is good with it and against it
and qs are fast beccause its a fun healer to play
Yeah they need to make other healers that fun to play
Instead of nerfing it to be unfun like the others
think they just need to tone trinity down a little and it would help put them back in line
resto druid needs buffs but idk how you'd fix it
playing with hpal is sketchy always sat a 50% hp haha
One glaring problem with this game IMO is that theres a few specs where the game is just way more fun if theyre bad. Resto druid is one of those specs. Them being good makes the meta agonizing. Every game is an 8 minute damp fest where youre playing for mana.
my fav spec is like that :<
long live outlaw
Fight Voidweavers as Double Rogue 🙂
Trueeeee. My friend was playing Hunter and died thru wall with full hots and bark ln lmaooo. It’s so bad
I killed Rennar through iron bark (not bark skin), while he was in tree form free casting
Tbh I think it’s placebo, I think it helped in the beginning but I know a ton of healers who have just stopped queueing because of vw disc
They can buff other heal specs but vw still needs a nerf
I actually love the suggestion I saw of leaving their damage as-is but making them oom super fast
because they hit so hard
Im also a little biased ngl because disc priest is probably the best healer to be meta from a rogue mains perspective
Hey we killed the one even though he got us to like 20% at the same time lol
Yeah void disc needs a huge nerf to the point it’s not playable in arena cause it’s bullshit
Well idk if double rogue 2s is the best context to be balancing the game around
Even without double rogue void disc a problem lol
I’m fine with it being good, it just doesn’t need to be THIS good
^
It’s just way too much damage with zero downside
Yeah sure but ill also take it ya know. Does it need a nerf? Probably. But am I upset that every game i play is both with the healer I do the best with and against the healer I do the best into? Nah not really lol
Like I said, I love the idea of leaving their damage damage alone and just making them oom crazy fast
exactly
my highest shuffle cr as a rogue ever, and its just vw lobbies
go off kings, lemme stun this for u
just played worst lobby of my life, boomie, SP, aff lock, VW, resto sham 
as sub?
seems like a sick sin lobby no?
no lol
The issue is VWs are crazy mana efficient
Thats not a bad lobby for assa tbh the only thing thats kind of annoying is the spriest
If you nerf mana on priest, Archon takes a giga nerf
didn't help was on tol viron
Oh god I hate that map
everbody standing 40yard
yea that would be ez
just the fact was triple caster on tol viron haha
had a 4 min game
yea thats no fun
If it were me I would play to kill the boomie in a smoke bomb every game vs him
And vs the shaman id aim to kill him after trinket
I would sap him, blind him out of it, kidney him, and garrote spam him to make him trinket
Them pillar hump to save cloak
Save a step for thunderstorm
yea agreed but when everybody standing 40yard doing pve 0 cc
Then kidney him
haha
No caster ever wants to push on offense bro it’s the most annoying shit to deal with in solo shuffle
The bigger issue is when your healer won't push
Thats what loses games
i swear rogues biggest problem is 90% of people dont know how to play with a rogue
healer standing 40yard so i can't push in
Or hugs a pillar like a momo and LOS themself from u when u been in the same spot all game
literally stuck on pillar mid map losing
And then blames you for LOS when it was their fault
wanted to quit r3
Its just so aids like
You want to kill a lock
Or a hunter
Or whatever
And every time they feel any pressure
They just port
Or disengage back
And you cant chase because you'll range your healer
So they basically can never die
that's also another problem with voidweaver
add it to the list
they want to play max range and blast 24/7
Yes but on the flip side of that, theyre much less reliant on LoS to heal you. Even if youre not in their line, as long as you have atonement on you you'll get healed by them. Thats actually a secretly broken aspect of disc priest that nobody talks about
Yeah it is
Idk that lobby just tilted me
Did you 0-6?
Ahh it was a boomy 6-0
A boomy that knows their shit will absolutely wreck a lobby and you can’t do a whole lot about it
Boomy can go with so many classes
You just have to pray one of the other dps fucks up
Yeah @pliant lintel think of it this way. As aids as it is to fight triple caster on TV arena, you did as well as 2/3 of those casters
Yeah lol
lol
What rating are you? Just curious. Probably pretty low since you just started playing assa
Yeah so the healers may not have been very good either
ye healers were defo the problem and boomy just taking advantage
Priest healer meta is also really good for boomies
Because most priests play undead
And a non-gnome priest is the only healer that cant get out of root beam
To be clear to the new people coming in here looking for tips: 2.3 is low for them, it’s not low lol
Lotta people gonna be in here thinking they suck for scraping to 1900 for the first time lmao
Yeah I mean low relative to the top of the ladder not relative to what rating most people are
Good catch
Haha
i swear 2100-2300 is harder than 2400+
i some what agree with that
healer quality alone
I just know from personal experience talking about this shit with friends and one of them was new and we kinda made him feel a bit bad
it's mostly just healers at that mmr
Agree on 2100-2300
wow pvpers are notorious for moving the goalposts for whats respectable pvp rating
be proud of yourself no matter what, but always try to improve
Correct
Yeah Ive said this before. Players at 2.1-2.3 are good enough that you cant carry your team into them but also not so good that they won't completely grief you
Like half my games in that range were 3-3
yea totally
Cause there’s so often a healer going 6-0
healers just dont trade that efficiently yet and dont dispel the right stuff is my experience
Felt like every 4-5 lobbies before 2400 there’d be a healer dead set on going 0-6
They dispel the fear on the hunter even though his trueshot is over and youre just sitting a full HoJ during subterfuge
or your bomb gets fucking searing glared
and they do nothing
I just threw up a little
the most op cc in the gmae nxt to cyclone
Losing a round where two people on the other team are at 10% with no defensives left cause I sit like 7 seconds of polymorph
There was a game I played recently where I kingsbaned, dudes at 10%, I get feared, and my healer starts casting ult penn instead of dispelling me. Like bro just give me 1 global to envenom and we win like come on
Managed to escape a sub rogue lobby 4-2 last night on my second rogue cause both druids kept cloning people on the sub rogues cds lmao
I was triggered for him
I swear they think its funny
Like when I kidney someone and they get cloned, so I vanish, step cheap shot someone else and then the druid swaps the clone to them
He whispered me afterwards that he hates going against other rogues that know the game
Soon as he was on the other team I told the healers I’m just gonna hold my trinket forever
Yeah you can only trinket smoke bomb
Yeah
Actually one mistake I make is that I almost never trinket offensively. Like unless im 100% sure I can kill, I dont trinket offensively
Ever
Ill sit my entire 12s garrote window In CC
Feel like that’s fine approach in shuffle
And never trinket
Shuffle is so chaotic
Trinketing offensively has such a high likelihood of not working out
Its actually not even because im afraid of dying
Thats part of it sure
But the big reason is I dont want to get CCd on whatever set up I think will win the game
So ill just save trinket until I either need it to live or need it to win in the next 5 seconds
We won a round vs that sub rogue cause he trinketed to try for a kill on me and I had the better druid and he just cloned the rogue 3x and we won
Ngl as a sub main playing with another rogue is aids
Worse for the other rogues lol
I try really hard not to stun anything if theres a sub rogue on my team
I think a good sub rogue is my least favorite thing to see
Nightmare matchup for assa if they are good
Yeah but if they trinket they can die in a stun so easily
Yea playing into Assa as sub is alright but playing with Assa is hard haha
2 very different play styles
Yeah
He does so much damage
And he IBFd my first stun
Rip
Probably because his Weakauras told him to 
He said on stream he knew that would happen and didn't know why he did that
Yea fdk burst if they know how to play is wild
So if you spam CC them
They pretty much have to trinket and ibf offensively
Or they cant do anything
IMO a good fdk burst is scarier than almost anything atm
Oh 100%
Esp because like, I have tools to deal with it
