cuz you can detect when your ally is in cc

#

it also prob wont track if you fade a cc

#

or something

jolly sierra
#

so, is this suppossed to be an omnicd replacement?

potent pivot
#

liquid just won the race

#

holy fuck

severe helm
#

USA

spring bough
potent pivot
#

this like liquid's 4th? win in a row i think

spring bough
#

So would be four right

dark kernel
#

I cannot remember who killed the last boss of dragon flight first

#

I thought it was Liquid as well but maybe echo got that one

potent pivot
#

i think echo won amirdrassil

severe helm
steady grail
#

what are best stats for sub pvp?

molten hedge
#

Ya I prefer not to use them bc they’re wrong half the time

potent pivot
lethal roostBOT
#

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.

potent pivot
#

want bare minimum 200 haste rating when scaled up for pvp ilvl, up to 600-700

#

the rest mastery

#

and obv vers on every piece, so like 20% vers at least usually

steady grail
#

i have 560 haste scaled

#

damn so gotta craft some pvp items

stiff cedar
#

yo trickz have you loaded the aegtracker thing? i'm trying to mess with it rn and unless it's the first addon ever to not consider skirms an arena, it just doesn't load at all

potent pivot
potent pivot
#

gonna have to give it some time

#

there's likely bugs etc

stiff cedar
#

yeah and i don't mind that just trying to get it to load at all

steady grail
#

what embelishment for rings ??

#

there is not arcanoweave

outer sky
#

The ring embellishments are crap

potent pivot
steady grail
#

what should i craft then

potent pivot
potent pivot
stiff cedar
potent pivot
#

copy/paste that to him

#

i can't talk for 10min

stiff cedar
#

he got it i think

potent pivot
#

that makes me kinda sus of the addon

stiff cedar
#

it doesn't sound like it's his

#

which is rly, rly weird

#

bc Aeg is not exactly generic lmao

potent pivot
#

i mean i knew he didn't make it

#

but i thought maybe he paid someone to or something

stiff cedar
#

oh i see what you mean yeah

potent pivot
#

it only has 30 installs

#

so

#

idk how thoroughly curse vets addons before approval

steady grail
#

ok belt and boots

stiff cedar
#

ah

steady grail
#

but its not possible arcanoweave on boots?

potent pivot
potent pivot
steady grail
#

oh there are some kind of engi pvp boots lmao

potent pivot
#

just regular pvp belt/boots

stiff cedar
#

the dev is a friend of aeg's

#

dunno if you're still in his stream

potent pivot
#

i've been hopping in and out

potent pivot
#

but it doesn't seem to be working

stiff cedar
#

ya

#

it actually loaded for him

#

but it's just doing nada

potent pivot
#

it need offensive CDs

#

and defensive CDs

stiff cedar
#

needs to actually put them on cd when it lands

potent pivot
#

ofc

stiff cedar
#

but yeah it'd be sick to have that back

#

is the zae defensives your recommended omnicd?

#

i tried exactly one and it just gave fake info like having/not having stuff so i just quit trying

potent pivot
#

but only for 3v3/2v2

#

your team mates have to have it too

#

so

stiff cedar
#

heard

#

won't be hard for 3s

potent pivot
#

there's other omnicd equivalents

#

they aren't as accurate

#

but are prob better for shuff

#

like just miniCC ig

potent pivot
#

thats a pve team kick tracker

severe helm
#

I wish

#

I could get the countdown color numbering back

#

from omnicd

#

thats one of the things I miss the most

#

but p sure thats just like explicitly not supported anymore

stiff cedar
potent pivot
#

just search blizzi

stiff cedar
#

ah i wasn't spacing

potent pivot
stiff cedar
#

oh

#

yeah this is just m+ stuff lmao

potent pivot
#

ya

#

lol

stiff cedar
#

his only other addon is a crest calculator

#

sooooo im gonna assume it's not for arenas LOL

severe helm
#

theyre just all orange though

#

I want it to like color red when it goes below X number

#

that was the default omnicd behavior and I got so used to it

#

I can prob do some things like use the blizzard sound effects when something comes off cd

potent pivot
#

surely one of the CDM addons has something

severe helm
#

im not sure cuz you cant actually check spell cooldown

#

its not part of the api afaik

#

so you cant create a trigger to recolor it at a certain duration

#

it would have to be some blizzard supported thing that returns some value like "cooldown low"

#

blizz hid stuff like charges and actual cooldown value specifically so you cant do even trigger based stuff

#

you have to infer cooldown when some other api call implies that something is used

#

but if an ability has cdr that no longer works

potent pivot
#

ic

potent pivot
#

@jaunty osprey

#

Shows some spells that don’t exist anymore and the spells don’t go on CD when the enemy uses them

#

So I guess it still needs work

terse cedar
#

why dont good players use @cursur macros for spells? I haven't seen a single like GOOD player use it for some reason, my friends telling me its 10x better and why woudnt you use it

potent pivot
#

but some specific spells can require a more fine-tuned positioning, so aren't generally used with [@cursor]

#

context of what spells you're asking about would help

terse cedar
#

Frost trap, ice nova, shadow fury for example

potent pivot
#

for most CC reticle abilities, you want more control of the positioning

#

some REALLY good/experienced players DO [@cursor] them

#

like Bicmex does [@cursor] for his traps i'm like 99% sure

#

but he has also been playing hunter for god knows how long

#

and generally he CCs before trapping so the target can't move afaik

#

things like traps, ring of peace, etc. you probably don't want to [@cursor]

terse cedar
#

At some point though woudnt you just know where to place it? would you really need to have the indicator?

potent pivot
#

things like AMZ or DnD from DKs for example, are more than fine to [@cursor] or [@player]

potent pivot
molten hedge
#

When I play huntard I just yeet them muhfuckas

potent pivot
#

i don't [@cursor] my freezing trap

#

but i do for things like tar trap etc

molten hedge
#

Surv arguably the easiest to land trap if you harpoon

potent pivot
#

yea

molten hedge
#

Bicmex told me for rshams just aim 1 mm above their head and to the right to snipe their grounding

#

Lmao

potent pivot
#

i also usually have like outlaw hook on [@cursor]

terse cedar
#

I guess so, I just thought since it makes you slower and wow feels such a fast paced gamed that having the indicator would just be innefficient

potent pivot
#

doing something a little slower is fine

#

you usually have time to do those kinda things

molten hedge
#

Bro has just been doing it too long

#

I love bismix

#

Bexsmes

outer sky
#

@potent pivot how do I move where this is on my screen???

potent pivot
outer sky
#

You cant move it?

potent pivot
#

it doesn't work

#

the addon

#

does not work

outer sky
#

ah

potent pivot
#

i'm pretty sure moving it is shift/ctrl click

#

or both shift and ctrl

outer sky
potent pivot
#

but the addon just doesn't work rn so

#

delete

outer sky
#

none of it moved it

potent pivot
#

i watched someone move it earlier

#

with their cursor

outer sky
#

to move it

potent pivot
#

no

#

moving it doesn't matter anyway

#

because you just delete it for now

trail turret
#

Is outlaw lookin good next patch? What are you guys doing for crafted gear/embellishments, seeing a lot of conflicting stuff o.O

potent pivot
gilded gulch
#

otherwise i feel its just going to suck unless the damage is overtuned

outer sky
#

The only good thing about Outlaw is it can respec sub

trail turret
#

even with the 12% dmg buff? the damage didnt feel too bad with just my honour gear

stiff cedar
#

like that white text is the only actually clickable hitbox

#

but yeah it's confirmed broken anyways but if it gets fixed 🤞 that's how

potent pivot
rough rock
#

Wth do i do against a ret/bm

#

Was just nonstop damage i couldnt avoid

stoic spruce
trail turret
#

So remember when i said conflicting information lol

stoic spruce
#

Well those are sub players who play sub

#

And they have infinite CC

trail turret
#

I can tell, buncha haters

stoic spruce
#

So everything is worse than them

outer sky
#

Yeah because outlaw is doing great. Just not as great as sub

#

we're reaching levels of copium never before thought possible

hybrid ermine
#

Hey are there any videos out there that discuss battlefield tactics on youtube?
Figure it'd be fun to watch.

trail turret
#

heal cut, 2 stuns, incap, blind, disarm. outlaw cc isnt even bad

hybrid ermine
#

For rogues specifically, but any will do.

outer sky
trail turret
potent pivot
#

"2 stuns"

#

one of which is a 2 minute cooldown

#

you asked if outlaw was looking good next patch, all we did was answer

outer sky
rough rock
hybrid sapphire
#

wait did everyone get this? this shit is goated

#

oh wait... my rings already go to 276 in arena... nvm

rough rock
hybrid sapphire
stoic spruce
#

If y'all can't create a win condition with that that's absolutely on yall

#

Also outlaws 100% going double vanish fwiw

trail turret
#

still far more cc than basically every other class, and if the damage is decent too it cant be as dogshit as you're making it out to be, is my thought. Is it as good as sub, yeah probably not, cuz sub is super overtuned. But i asked if its decent not if its op unbeatable super strong free wins

rough rock
potent pivot
#

If you want to delude yourself that is fine

stoic spruce
potent pivot
#

You should play whatever you want regardless

stoic spruce
trail turret
#

Hard to get info on outlaw cuz sub is so overbearing most rogue players are just playing that instead. I am well aware it is the stronger spec, i just find outlaw more enjoyable, but its not fun when its a useless tickle monster

rough rock
#

on murlok

hybrid sapphire
#

ppl laugh at me as assa. they point and they laugh. and throw tomatoes too

stoic spruce
#

Hasn't caught on yet ig idk

#

It's night and day once you try it

frozen walrus
stoic spruce
#

No

trail turret
stoic spruce
#

Drop SC for it

eager yoke
#

i think u drop cold blood for double van

#

dont see the point unless ur playing a setup comp in 3s

rough rock
lavish flint
#

I see some ppl going 2 epic weapons. Is that the move for auto atk dmg or better to craft rings + amu?

stoic spruce
rough rock
#

he wants his bte to hit for 25k instead of 23k

stoic spruce
#

Oh okay yeah

stoic spruce
#

Holy shit I'm laughing lmao

rough rock
#

hes a healers nightmare

stoic spruce
#

Yeah 18 minutes into a match

eager yoke
#

try it out

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

I did

#

It doesn't do anything for outlaw, esp with crit so nerfed in pvp

#

Also Zero In and all that

rough rock
#

SC trickster is fun tho i will say

stoic spruce
#

Yeah that's good stuff

#

Coup hits hard these days

#

@potent pivot don't get it nerfed

#

Fool

rough rock
#

yeah but coin buff too good

eager yoke
#

for shuffle and 2s cold blood probably always better unless u know you will get trained or ur playing setup comp in 3s

trail turret
#

Almost everyone is picking cb from what i see O.o what talent page are you guys using with double vanish

stoic spruce
eager yoke
#

sad outlaw doesnt have vanish cdr anymore with restless blades

trail turret
#

Erm excuse you theres 9

stoic spruce
#

I also don't base anything on shuffle as that's the losers mode

#

Oh sorry

#

Let me edit that

eager yoke
#

lol what mode is the winner's mode

#

training grounds?

stoic spruce
#

2s and 3s

#

The mode for men

#

Who lift

trail turret
#

From what ive been hearing the winners mode for outlaw is blitz lol

stoic spruce
#

High T mode

rough rock
stoic spruce
#

Yeah about that

trail turret
#

4x hook is nutty for flag cap maps apparently, i havent done any rated pvp on my rogue yet tho, still gathering conquest and havent crafted gear yet

#

Just going off what i've heard

eager yoke
stoic spruce
#

Idak how it is post nerf

eager yoke
#

then ur low t if ur qing healer/dps

stoic spruce
#

It's the outlaw way

eager yoke
#

ok ok

stoic spruce
#

@jolly sierra SEXOOOOOOOO

#

I can't to get off work

#

Wait*

#

Caffeine pill is kicking in

rough rock
#

Caffeine pill is low t

stoic spruce
#

I'm addicted

rough rock
#

do a line like an adult

stoic spruce
#

Dude

#

It's funny you say that

rough rock
#

IM JOKING

stoic spruce
#

It takes like 10 minutes for it to metabalize and I considered popping it open and snorting it

#

Only for like a second though

rough rock
#

I kinda relaxed on energy drinks like 2 months ago. Feels like i get sleepy with them now

stoic spruce
#

I do need to wean off caffeine

#

Lest I want a heart attach by 40

jolly sierra

gilded gulch
stoic spruce
#

Oof

#

I could never lol

#

Would never*

hybrid ermine
#

any good niche reasons to go sin rogue for pvp?

potent pivot
#

You don’t really want to craft rings/neck regardless either @lavish flint

potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

Oh reasons

#

Nvm

hybrid ermine
#

Thanks, i was curious because i see it sometimes.

#

Well, rarely

stoic spruce
#

It's a normal CD spec with nothing special going on

hybrid ermine
#

I guess it's something people are familiar with so they go with it.

stoic spruce
#

Atp I have to agree

potent pivot
#

Some people just play whatever they enjoy

#

Nothing really wrong with that

#

Any spec in the game is viable to get whatever rewards

#

Especially with brackets like blitz existing

stoic spruce

My stomach hurts now

Did anyone get the tabard yet? Wondering if I should put the effort in

#

Did bro get freaky ahhh again

stoic spruce
#

Reminded me of gdudu in 3s

potent pivot
gilded gulch
#

1.8 rn feels like you get some actual humans in already

#

unless its the ret pally who decides to die 10s into gates opening when hes on my team

spring bough
spring bough
#

The goes to the forums and complains pally needs more

gilded gulch
#

idk you got a ton of defensives to cycle on ret

#

not sure how people manage

gleaming sentinel
potent pivot
#

2300 innit?

#

its just elite

#

you can see the tabard

#

its on the elite conq vendor

potent pivot
#

kinda funny every low rated rogue i see seems to have gotten baited into crafting jewelry with focusing iris from somewhere

#

oh ofc. iceyveins. ICANT

stoic spruce
severe helm
#

its always icyveins

#

they have so much wrong info on there idgi

potent pivot
#

Like at least the basic gameplay stuff was correct enough to be a decent starting point for new players

stoic spruce
#

I don't even use icy veins for pve tbh

severe helm
#

you shouldnt

stoic spruce
#

I'm not sure the purpose icy veins serves is

potent pivot
#

I only use wowhead

stoic spruce
#

Yeah

potent pivot
#

They get clicks from multiple games

severe helm
#

ads

stoic spruce
#

I see

#

Not the ads the that one is obv but I didn't know the multiple games part

#

I will say icy veins is more visually appealing

potent pivot
#

Wowheads mobile experience is a war crime tho

stoic spruce
#

Wowhead shouldn't be accessible on mobile tbh

#

It's the only website I have to use desktop mode on

potent pivot
#

Half the time it won’t work right or it’ll take forever to load up anything

stoic spruce
#

I swear they're mining Bitcoin from mobile users the way it heats up

proven field
potent pivot
#

Ye focusing iris seems fine on outlaw

proven field
#

It feels fine on assa

#

Too bad chants don’t count as applied dots though

rough rock
#

blitz is cursed

#

either ride the placement games to win or be cursed for 5 generations

stoic spruce
#

On their part? Hard agree

empty fable
grave basin
#

Why does it look like some random amani tribe renown 16 tabard

#

Astral tabard atleast had a unique look

stoic spruce
#

Yeah I didn't comment because it doesn't deserve the attention

severe helm
#

warcraft logs is almost worse

grave basin
#

So in the 3 weeks of shuffle ive seen exactly zero outlaw rogues

#

Is it joever

stoic spruce
#

They're in blitz

severe helm
#

they arent in blitz

grave basin
#

Think ive seen 3 assas

stoic spruce
#

Welp

#

It's joever

severe helm
#

they arent in anything

#

there are 2 outlaw rogues above 1994 rating

#

*in shuffle

grave basin
#

Is it dazed

severe helm
#

above 1800 its 10

#

10 total outlaw rogues in all of NA

grave basin
#

And probably some other 10x r1

severe helm
#

in blitz there are 6 above 2200

grave basin
#

Hmmmmmmmmmm lets remove all the control from the control spec

#

And lets make the brawler spec squishy af

severe helm
#

and less mobile

stoic spruce
#

Sub once again stole from Outlaw

severe helm
#

and have less burst

#

they nerfed outlaw from every angle going into midnight

#

defense, burst, cc, mobility

grave basin
#

I swear gemini would be better

#

How is killing spree still shit after two reworks

severe helm
#

cuz they find a dev for outlaw on fiver

#

every patch

grave basin
#

I heard in pve they do zero boss dam too

severe helm
#

yeah theyre also pretty bad in pve rn

#

but all 3 rogue specs arent great atm

grave basin
#

In pve yea

severe helm
#

damage to bosses

stoic spruce
#

I know I'm chronically optimist but I genuinely believe this is a freak accident

severe helm
#

its not

#

to be frank

#

why should they care

#

no one plays it even when its good

#

so why even bother

grave basin
#

Eh they do

#

Bfa?

severe helm
#

I didnt play back then so idk what its actual popularity was

#

ive heard it was very good

#

but dont know statistics

grave basin
#

2x outlaw in m+

severe helm
#

yeah I know

#

but that doesnt mean it was popular

#

lol

grave basin
#

In SL outlaw was good in pvp too and was quite represented

#

Ladder and awc

severe helm
#

I dont remember it being popular in SL

#

it was strong yeah

grave basin
#

Awc literally had 2x outlaw teams

severe helm
#

again

#

thats not overall

#

I cant remember a time I looked at the ladder and saw more outlaws than any of the other two rogue specs

#

let alone more outlaws than other specs in general

stoic spruce
#

I remember SL had outlaws every other arena

#

It had 0 counters

severe helm
#

I played that season

#

and dont remember seeing many outlaws lol

#

sub has always been outlaws counter though

#

or MLD

stoic spruce
#

Well not this time

#

It was stupid

severe helm
#

p sure kubzy's team beat the double outlaw with arcane lock rdruid

#

just giga damping

grave basin
#

Outlaw was pretty meta in 2s/3s back in SL

severe helm
#

I remember how good it was

grave basin
#

I saw it everywhere

severe helm
#

but it was only good by good players

#

so it wasnt that popular

grave basin
#

I wish there was a way to look at the ladder snapshot back then

severe helm
#

in 2s outlaw was insane though in SL yeah

#

for like multiple seasons

#

just lots of consistent damage and cc

#

like a war on crack

stoic spruce
#

Multiple good builds

#

Gosh I miss it

severe helm
#

yeah it was pretty fun

#

I think I played bone spike in 2s

#

or kyrian

#

I sitll miss ER

rough rock
#

lets go i broke my blitz lost streak

severe helm
#

10/10 prob one of my favorite abiltiies they have ever had in the game

#

mechanically

rough rock
#

although i lost 200 rating in shuffle today

stoic spruce
#

MFD SAD

grave basin
#

Unnerfed float + double vanish leggo

#

Im pretty sure unnerfed RB too

stoic spruce
#

You could go in unstealthed, mounted, and still win

grave basin
#

Immune to death

stoic spruce
#

Well the RtB buff was merfed

#

Nerfed

severe helm
#

was it?

stoic spruce
#

I think so

severe helm
#

I thought it was baseline too

stoic spruce
#

Well now it is

#

Not back in SL

severe helm
#

yeah

#

the tww nerf I mean

#

was just baseline

grave basin
#

Not rtb, restless blades

severe helm
#

they nerfed a lot of things lol

stoic spruce
#

And still are

severe helm
#

bte crit multiplier, rb, float

#

rip

stoic spruce
#

And never will be unnerfed

severe helm
#

ofc not

rough rock
#

Dont worry guys with the damage buff tomorrow we will have 6 outlawsd

severe helm
#

dead spec who cares

#

im out of town for work til thursday night

#

gona miss all the outlaw fun

stoic spruce
#

I picked up arena breakout anyway

rough rock
#

gonna be zero outlaws in awc huh

grave basin
#

Mfw rogues get compensation nerfs in pve

severe helm
stoic spruce
#

Don't remind me

rough rock
#

oh wait yeah this means no more tuning for a while

grave basin
rough rock
stoic spruce
rough rock
#

"BuffMW" was his name i think

grave basin
#

That was meep

#

And healers being """""bad""""" through raw hps or mana isnt the same as a dps having the kit of a lvl 10 adventurer spec

severe helm
#

yeah healers can usually get away with a little bit more

#

like kubzy almost always plays rdruid

#

even when its not meta

rough rock
#

I dont understand the adr nerf, I understand they want to slowly tune out burst but doing that to outlaw and not doing it to literally any other spec was like someone at blizzard with a personal issue

#

Felt like they had such a good grasp tuning wise and the last few weeks just forgot everything

severe helm
#

they really think outlaw is gona insta become op if they buff them

#

in pve theyre doing the same

#

they buff ST by 4%

#

and nerf aoe

#

by 4%

#

its weird

rough rock
#

Yeah so weird

grave basin
#

Meanwhile devourer...

gilded gulch
#

kubzy is also disgusting at rdru

#

tbf

severe helm
#

exactly

gilded gulch
#

though

#

idk if more than mehh at priest

#

or specifically disc

stoic spruce
#

Isn't there suppose to be another blizzcon or something soon?

grave basin
#

Yea awc soon

stoic spruce
#

No a WoW event

rough rock
potent pivot
stoic spruce
#

Blizzard rather

grave basin
#

Who cares, probably show off more housing

stoic spruce
#

I care

gilded gulch
#

didnt they mention it too

#

best rmp disc usually

gilded gulch
#

heavily enables the mage and rogue to be aggro

#

as shit

rough rock
#

plus with its new healing its getting

#

i imagine its gonne be way more tanky which it deserves

gilded gulch
#

i’ve seen more havoc in shuff

#

than devourer

#

surprised

grave basin
#

Devourer is a victim spec atm

potent pivot
grave basin
#

In shuff

rough rock
#

every havoc ive fought (1600-1800) just blows up instantly

gilded gulch
#

so is warrior it feels

rough rock
#

even my outlaw could dom one haha

potent pivot
gilded gulch
#

i watched this arms war

grave basin
#

Warrior is absolutely a victim class

#

Watch trille play against r1s

gilded gulch
#

die in first 40 secs of 3 rounds

#

vs mm hunter

grave basin
#

Evoker in the lobby = shit

#

Mage = shit

#

Ret/hpal = shit

potent pivot
#

Idk how Von’Queef has been playing devo

grave basin
#

Warrior cant play in more than 3/4 of the lobbies

potent pivot
#

If he ain’t even playin outlaw

gilded gulch
#

they also decided to trinket and los

grave basin
gilded gulch
#

while their healer was sapped other sid eof tolviron

#

big braijs

potent pivot
rough rock
#

BM and ret being in every game makes me want to pull my hair out. God more defensives than i do it feels like

grave basin
#

Im literally watching trilles vod from yestd where he faced whaaz dragon / ret / bicmex

severe helm
stoic spruce
#

He showed me

grave basin
#

How do you play against that

severe helm
#

its like a really shitty shadow priest idk

potent pivot
#

Swear I saw him post a ss of like 300+ shuffles played already a week ago

stoic spruce
#

He's doing dam

severe helm
#

it doesnt make sense to me

#

it needs to cast so much to do damage

gilded gulch
#

havent seen bm in shuff yet

severe helm
#

and it needs to get so close to do cc

#

its awkward af

#

it pads meters then loses

potent pivot

Maybe there's some tech that hasn't caught on yet

gilded gulch
#

also ngl playing sub getting mm on my team is like

#

win the round in 60s

#

vs melee

grave basin
#

The best spec for it rn is the one shot void scarred build i think

severe helm
#

yeah its very telegraphed in my experience

gilded gulch
severe helm
#

maybe cuz it doesnt move much while its doing damage

potent pivot
severe helm
#

so it cant like drift toward the enemy healer as easily

grave basin
#

You see predetors wake and pop a defensive

rough rock
#

theres an outlaw in top 10 of blitz lol

severe helm
#

blitz is mostly cheese and queueing at the right time

#

the mmr is pretty high so the highest rated people just have more games tbh

#

but notice the win loss

#

of the actual well known players up there

#

dean weedtye

#

60-70% winloss

gilded gulch

sub feels goofy rn with how easily you can just

severe helm

and the outlaw

potent pivot

Bro blitz coat tail boosts are starting to become a thing fast

gilded gulch

go and bonk different people

in the same dance

severe helm

people will literally

queue down

in mmr

#

just to get games

potent pivot
#

I might have to learn blitz

grave basin
#

Dance uptime needs to go down

severe helm
#

im leveling my alt priest right now for that exact reason

#

dont learn blitz

#

its not worth it

awful bracket

i like it when you dont get stuck in the cursed mmr zone

stoic spruce

#

I hate how you cant punish sub for blowing dance like a mongo

stoic spruce

It's dmg isn't even the problem

potent pivot

then all the talk about it being easy gets thrown out the window

stoic spruce

It's the crazy uptime

potent pivot

With less effort too

Lmao

youll need a healer prob

ye pres is insane

that much mobilty on a healer

they nerfed a lot of mw stuff for blitz

they just random cc you

The passives are dope

That’s the idea rn. There’s a lot of pros to it for sure

Back when KS was 20 seconds, I'd kidney to assert dominance

molten hedge

We’ll see

stoic spruce
#

Remind them that their spot is in a CC

#

I refuse to play sub to do that again though

rough rock
#

How long did sub last in SL as meta?

stoic spruce
#

As meta or good? It was good all expac but meta I think 1 season

#

S1

#

Rogue in general was extremely cracked in SL

gilded gulch
#

you were a mage stunbot in s1

#

outside of ma venthyr cheese

stoic spruce

You were

I wasn't

#

Hi pals

gilded gulch
#

the eu sub ww team

grave basin
#

Or po "convoked" po

gilded gulch
#

they would get your trinket then duel with venthyr ma

#

and also have a ww dump his keefers sck procs on you through duel

#

keefers in general in sl

#

especially in 2s since most people would overcommit a keefers go

#

which was only 1min cds

stoic spruce

#

Ive decided to relegate my uh dk to a 1800 and done alt

Cba with how it plays

gilded gulch
#

i had so many rogue mage teams that would sap my healer then i rop myself

#

and the rogue tries to open me and looks stupid

stoic spruce
gilded gulch
#

thank god none of them were smart enough to pre cc monk

before sapping healer

stoic spruce

Anytime someone here asks how to beat unholy we should throw tomatoes

hear a lot of shit about placements being kinda gamba etc

jaunty terrace

do you think I should play 4p with 1 PvE part or just 2P with conquest / honor stuff?

jaunty terrace
#

it will be 258 in arena, it's a chest

potent pivot
#

chest is already kinda meh

jaunty terrace
#

crit mastery yeah

potent pivot
#

if you have 4set though you should start proc'ing catalyst charges

#

to catalyst a good 4th piece

#

it won't make much difference either way but i'd prolly just stick to pvp gear until you get the last piece

stoic spruce

Ahem

It was fun while it lasted guys

#

We'll see how all the specializations align after today's nerfs and buffs

stoic spruce
potent pivot
#

ppl have speculated that there's also some form of "account wide mmr" in the background in the past, but afaik there's never been anything conclusive found out about it

dark moon
balmy shuttle
potent pivot
#

like mmr hard resets between expansions but only 'soft resets' between seasons

balmy shuttle
#

people really should care less about the details of the MMR system and just play & improve.

jaunty terrace
#

do you think it's the same in solo shuffle?

balmy shuttle
jaunty terrace
#

I know about the knowledge it's obvious

#

but for the MMR

balmy shuttle
#

it's true that the way Blizzard handles MMR in shuffle at the start of the season makes it undesirable to push rating early. MMR gain will even out over the course of the season

dark kernel
#

Both nerfs combined probably a 20% damage nerve

#

Will be fine if we play with mage probably but it's going to be one of those seasons where you get pigeon holed. No idea about shuffle. Stunbot Outlaw felt awful

dark kernel

If you can mathematically ascertain that wind walker is number one, feral is number two. Warrior might even catch up now for melee classes it's not that unworldly

#

He plays what is best.

#

Pretty indiscriminately

dark moon
#

will try assa shuffle soon

molten hedge
#

And sub enhance

#

And dazed switched from outlaw to sub so they have 2 subs now

dark kernel
#

That's because Outlaw is completely unplayable

severe helm
dark moon
severe helm

Oooooh interesting

#

So they do nothing still

dark kernel
#

Sub is literally the only spec even competitively viable

dark moon
#

outluls will be FIHRING THEIR LAHZORZ

severe helm

But that's not saying it will be good after today

severe helm

It has burst potential

dark kernel

I think it's foolish, but that seems to be the trend

dark moon
#

awc is whole different game

dark kernel
#

I think there was one single best of series where the Rogue switched to Assa in tww and it didn't go well

dark kernel
dark moon

sorry then

but assa was played in the past, not recently tho

dark kernel

Either way.

severe helm
#

Assa has been played a decent amount by pika

#

In rps

molten hedge
#

Jung played smokebomb last ssn iirc

severe helm

But yeah it's usually sub and outlaw occasionally

molten hedge
#

Assa uhdk. It worked well until Kalvish and them beat them iirc

gilded gulch

is smokebomb still a run at healers comp

could someone please help me? i feel like im struggling in pvp with my damage output

that was my basis but im still significantly lower in solo shuffle

my bg damage is ok

gilded gulch

lower in what

low fulcrum

gilded gulch

you should never do more scoreboard damage in shuffle

#

if you're landing kills thats all that matters

ok thats somewhat reassuring

im completely new to sub rogue so my knowledge is limited

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.

I have pushed for sub nerfs to devs though

#

if sub gets tuned back in line warrior might be competitive

ionic crown

do u wanna sub nerf like tww?

#

seems so

dark kernel
#

Arms already has low keyed trucked

#

And turbo and thunder are bullshit right now

severe helm
cobalt pewter
#

I dont want sub's damage nerfed at all

#

it should do high burst damage

#

but 20s cd x2 dance is a huge problem

severe helm
#

Idc really it has to be one

#

I'd prefer it to not have this much cc

#

Its kinda disgusting how much more cc it has than the rest of the specs in the game atm

#

If they're gonna keep it though they have to nerf the dam

#

And I think blizz isn't going to make a cc change mid season

#

So they have to nerf the burst in the mean time

gleaming pawn
severe helm
#

Thats slippery slope logic

#

We're not saying it needs to have no cc but the current amount is not okay

gleaming pawn
#

Rogue is the CC class. Take that away and it might as well not exist

severe helm
#

No one is saying to take away all it's cc

#

20s CD dance is too broken

#

It needs fixing

#

Tbh just remove the talent to double cheap shot

gleaming pawn
#

You make their CC in-line with the other classes, then again what’s the point of Rogue. It’s squishy and doesn’t do as much damage as other classes (historically) because of its CC capabilities

severe helm
#

Sub isn't squishy and does more burst than most classes

gleaming pawn
#

Look at Sin and Outlaw with trash tier CC and you want Sub to also be that useless? Again there’s no point to play a Rogue if it has the same level of CC as the rest of the classes

severe helm
#

A 4 second stun every 20s is already more cc than almost every class

#

Outlaw and assa have a 4 second stun every 2 minutes

#

Sub has 12 times as many cheap shots as outlaw or assa

#

I'm saying to reduce it to only 6 times as many

#

Does that not make fucking sense

gleaming pawn
#

Assa and Outlaw should not have had their CC gutted as they did. Because again why play either spec when you can and will do better playing any other class. Assa and Outlaw don’t have the damage or survivability to compensate for CC being removed

severe helm
#

Assa still has a silence so it's not as bad off as outlaw

#

Sub needs adjusting it's just the reality of it

#

They prob won't touch cc this patch

#

So it's gonna get it's damage nerfed a lot

#

Can anybody tell me why the ivy veins build changed so drastically overnight?

#

It basically changed my rings from Versatility/Mastery crafted to haste/versatility. It also added a bunch of crafted PvP gear in place of the conquest gear, and changed my embelishment from the iris ring embelishment to arcanoweave lining embelishment. It then changed my weapons from dagger/dagger to dagger/sword. The gloves were grim jest gloves, and now theyre galactic gloves too. Only even shows 3 pieces of grimjest now which makes no sense to me.

gilded gulch
dark kernel
junior dock
#

oh ffs

gilded gulch
#

wait people crafted rings

junior dock
#

so what should a guy follow for gearing?

gilded gulch
#

lmao

dark kernel
#

Just go look at armory and sort by top rated solo shuffle rogues and look at what they play

#

It's always going to be like nahj at the top

gilded gulch
#

you get 700 haste then just go for agi pieces

dark kernel
gilded gulch
#

honestly an easy way to think about it

#

if chest legs or helm dont have vers

#

its likely your offpiece

abstract stratus
#

ngl the mutilate buff feels pretty nice on the dummy gotta get in a shuffle later to test

dark kernel
#

When I get free conquest it's time to test some outlaw

gilded gulch
#

ig if you really want to sweat some pve too you can get gilded to grab 285 crafted items

#

in slots you dont have conq for

junior dock
dark kernel
#

Your gear stats inflate when you join a battleground in arena, or you hit the PVP dummy

gilded gulch
#

i mean some of the r1s believe in a full mastery build

junior dock
#

so far it looks like the build i was following before mirrors the solo shuffle guys for the most part

gilded gulch
#

which gives you like 2 less gcds in dance

#

but bigger bonks

junior dock
#

It looks like theyre all in blues too, is there any reason for this?

gilded gulch
#

its honor gear

#

you cant have full conq this early

junior dock
#

like all of these guys are full of blue pieces instead of purples

gilded gulch
#

i think you can get relatively close if craft 285 pve gear

junior dock
#

ok so overall it looks like im on the right track still

#

now my biggest question is embelishment, i cant see theirs it seems

gilded gulch
#

embellishments are honestly so minor

#

arcanoweave generally if no crafted wep

junior dock
#

so i ended up with 2 focusing iris sine thats what my guide had said. arcanoweave seems like it would be better, is there a way for me to l;ike overwrite the embelishment on my rings if i craft gear with arcano weave? its only 2 embelishments at a rime right?

gilded gulch
#

i dont think you can put arcanoweave on rings

junior dock
#

i know, i made my rings yesterday with focusing iris on them

#

but now today im seeing arcano weave everywhere

#

so if i make some armor to follow Nahjs gear, and put arcano weave on them, how does that work?

gilded gulch
#

so you'd need to recraft them with no embellish

#

and craft other gear with arcanoweave

junior dock
#

i wont be able to equip the gear with arcanoweave on it if i make it?

gilded gulch
#

its not a huge deal regardless the damage difference is kind of minor

#

can only wear 2 embellished pieces at a time

gilded gulch
#

you can recraft gear to remove an embellish

jaunty osprey
gilded gulch
#

Idk people need to stop overthinking gearing its not end of the world if you dont have the exact items r1s have

jaunty osprey
#

shit hardly hits more than autos

abstract stratus

#

pretty sure the sweat thing to do rn is do keys that drop gilded crests and craft 285 gear in slots you dont have conq in

Some ppl going more mastery instead of haste, what do u guys think?

lavish flint
gilded gulch
#

ok i wouldnt gauge what is good to gear

#

by how pika plays

#

that mf just vibe gears

#

pika succeeds just by being good at the game

#

alot of his gearing choices are questionable at best

abstract stratus
#

@jaunty osprey so did they just not implement the buff to anything other than the tooltip? lmao

rough rock
# jaunty osprey

Yeah I figured that buff was gonna be like how they are treating arcane missiles where people see a % and think it’s gonna be crazy

They should have made the buff affect Ambush too... then you all become Blindside enjoyers

#

I dunno, seems stronger to me, maybe you guys just aren't assassinating enough

finished at 5% contribution, usually sits around 2-3%, so seems buffed.. just not... going to suddenly make you better
