Do sub worth the 4set ?

I get to choose between a crafted chest piece this week or three pieces of jewelry. Any thoughts

#

I kind of want to do the jewelry so I can start messing with my secondary stats more

#

ah true a lot of us have the extra heraldry

#

i forgot

dark kernel
#

So this week I'm going to have $925 conquest and one herald tree

#

And if you're wondering my my text looks so funny, I'm using speech to text

potent pivot
#

herald tree

dark kernel
#

I could theoretically do a ring and the DPS trinket

#

I haven't gotten the trinket yet

potent pivot
#

i'm probably just going to do trinket this week yea

#

you can also get a crafted trinket

#

if you want to use up the heraldry now

dark kernel
#

Is there legitimately any benefit to that trinket whatsoever over the regular ones?

#

I completely forgot there was a crafted trinket

potent pivot
#

nope

#

its the exact same

#

just able to use herladries on it instead of raw conq

New to pvp , is mast or haste a better stats for bg blitz?

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
#

at least 200 haste rating when scaled up to pvp ilvl, the rest mast

#

and ~20% vers which u just get from pvp gear regardless

Is there a rating requirement?

Don’t believe so but I think it’s gotta be a win haven’t got one on a loss yet

warped gate

Yeesh, well thanks.

#

I want my f'n four set.

Delves seems like it gives one more than solo/blitz

What's the lowest tier Delve you got it from?

I managed to get to 8 in PvP gear before it started getting rough.

@dark kernel i think ur right trickster dps is just still insane

dark kernel
#

I still prefer tricksters benefits though overall, but it's kind of indifferential

warped gate

I got the LFR one for a slot I didn't want, so I got the achievement, but want to use it on my shoulders.

Granted I found out I didn't have the Conquest to lacquer it anyway, so it works out.

You still gotta hit 20% Haste for the rotation be smooth on Outlaw before mastery gets stacked

Base UI has diminishing returns on blizz frames (in game setting) , other than that - just addons the guys have put in the pins to ā€œreskinā€ the information blizzard shows.

last season, every 10% mastery = +1 to the x1 damage mod of Main Gauche

I tried it a bit last season and it was fun but felt very PVE-centric... need high uptime, higher consistent dmg but less burst so I looked good on meters but couldn't kill as often

beat the living shit out of the pvp dummy though, I'll tell you what

I feel you... my team absolutely shit the bed at the end of a TP... we wiped them 5-6x in a row, escorted back.. kill their FC, but our D could not peel or sit on flag...they'd grab and grab and we'd return and return... they ended up capping once with 2 mins left... you just sit looking at your screen like.. "guys... why"

Yeah that was the same in my EotS game. Both russian mages somehow went mid instead of capping our bases kekdog

EOTS is like SSM in that you can't just say fuckit and carry - if the team doesn't know what to do, you can't compensate

dude that is the worst... earlier im juggling both their healers between BS and Farm for like.... 3 hours

#

I got into it with this hunter the other day

#

He called for help

#

Lost the base

#

But there were 3 people there with him

#

Im like

#

How do you lose the base theres 4 of you

#

He says "but they also had 4. Thats why I said we needed help"

#

And im trying to tell him this isnt carts

#

If theres 4 of you alive at the base you shouldn't lose it

#

Even if theyre 8 man hitting it

#

Like if the other team wiped them then okay thats one thing

#

But no they were all 4 alive

proper vortex

Yeah way to many still dont understand how the numbers game works in blitz

100%... just had a guy repeatedly break my CC on Water "to kill him".. im trying to explain I just want him off the circle so we can flip, then kill him, but he just... did not want to understand

so in midnight u can have only 2 Embellishments and thats it?

so if I already have double arcanoweave there is nothing I can add if I decide to craft something?

You can remove/swap them out later

okay, whatever

There’s a new version of that one called focusing iris, but it’s pretty meh for assa/sub

but I can add it?

potent pivot

It’s an embellishment

#

You can only have 2 embellishments

last jasper

okay

tnx

potent pivot

Arcanoweave embellishment is what most ppl are using

#

We might swap to darkmoon Sigil hunt later when we craft weapons after conq is uncapped

nah, I just thought u could add something like this shit for gems and it didn't count

Like constantly go to objectives the least amount of people are in to sneak a cap?

sleek belfry
#

yeah, depending on who is sitting/what node for sure

#

also slowing healers back to teamfight if they left to drink/res'd/floated to another node

#

or coming in for a full kidney bomb kill mid teamfight after incing a node

#

all good things, just recognize when running at a base is wasting time/pressure tho

potent pivot
# gaunt egret Could you elaborate a bit?

I don’t really do blitz so I’m def not the best person to ask, I just know a rogues usual job is playing objectives. Stealing bases, stopping enemy from stealing bases, stuff like that

Had a conversation with a guildmate about ret being f-ing op in pvp (they are the ret pal) and they said sub rogue is way more op and that ret lacks dmg and mobility

#

And I thought for a second if I need this guild or not

#

Like...

outer sky
dark moon
#

And they started pulling some statistics

#

I was losing my mind

#

The argument kinda fell of after some guildies backed me up with the amount of rets compared to rogues

trail turret
#

I could see an argument for ret "lacking dmg" if u look purely at numbers, but its just because they do very little dmg padding, all their dmg is just in your face and if you dont have a defensive ready u die, also they are immune every minute

#

rets only real problem imo is no mortal wound

dark moon
#

I wont accept it

#

Ret can absolutely floor you with their burst at 50% - 60% hp

still kinda up in the air if this works totally better but its hard to tell into enh almost every game smacking the absolute dogshit out of someone

see his name is VanCleef and in original deadmines VanCleef says none can challenge the brotherhood yet VC was suspended for exactly that see it's actually a really solid rogue-specific reference...ahh you kids are too young, it's a great joke

Whaazz is playing outlaw shuffs btw

He’s like 21-0 so far in a shuff rn

scarlet nest

played a few games on reset and it already feels much more impactful with the buffs

still a bit rng cause most of the dam is during triple/jackpot but it’s fun

It was a fresh start. His damage is still kind of doodoo

When I press my bleeds, it does 200k in like 8 seconds

You need a way longer match

#

I definitely felt insane yday in a lobby

#

But your screenshots are NOT long enough to be worthy of any actual data

abstract stratus
#

yea i havnet had a chance to actually shuffle because im working rn and skirming inbetween meetings lol

#

will test mor in a few hours

abstract stratus
#

much longer game

proven field
#

I cant figure out why your mut is so high though, is it just because everything else is lower?

jaunty osprey
#

It’s because he’s only pressing mutilate

#

Isn’t spreading bleeds with CT

#

Etc etc

#

using 4 poison build with deadly poison

#

So either doesnt have sudden demise for more bleed damage (really my good because of bleed buffs) or no zoldycks

#

The buff definitely looks significant, but that’s the reason for the weird breakdown

#

There is a world in which doomblade is taken along with systemic failure

You would drop poison bomb and secondary poisoning

#

and then can drop spatter for CT

#

At work atm, but this is what I would suggest if the Mutilate changes seem good

abstract stratus
#

was running fatal concoction becaus deadly poison seemed like it was pumping but ill try that build rn

proven field
#

I think you end up largely around the same tbh - let me take a look

#

pretty close - that's just dummy through two kingsbanes

#

identical button presses, some coins better than others, but... don't think it ultimately changed anything

abstract stratus
#

ran sd no dtb with systemic failure and doom blade and mutilate still smacking for the most part so idk if this is just what it looks like with those 2 talents added in

#

also idk which mutilate is the doomblade bleed or the actual mutliate hit

proven field
#

Hrmmm high haste build? Try my version - full cooldowns on the PvP dummy - run for like 5m dmg (end right after second use of kingsbane)

#

See what the dmg meter says

abstract stratus
#

the dummy doesnt show the mutilate buffs for pvp

#

its only in instance it seems , we brought this up a few days ago

proven field
#

Yeah I just wanna see if you right side a bit

abstract stratus
#

also dummy has zero vers

proven field
#

I think it’s just not spreading dots enough maybe

potent pivot
#

iirc the reason for seeing 2 muts is MH/OH

abstract stratus
#

what a bad way to do that lol

proven field
#

It counts as a dot embedded in mut think MH

potent pivot
#

new meter is just dogshit ofc

jaunty osprey
#

Dummy testings does nothing btw

#

Especially testing two different builds

molten hedge
#

Yeah is regular details better than blizzards or they both bad

proven field
#

I mean there is no way to really actually test though

molten hedge
#

Crazy

potent pivot
#

details doesn't add anything significant

jaunty osprey
#

The strength of spreading bleeds and having multiple people rotted in a 3v3 or shuffle scenario should not be forgotten

proven field
#

Details just a skin now

potent pivot
#

we have to start logging arenas to WCL

proven field
jaunty osprey
proven field
#

Before buff like 2-3%

jaunty osprey
#

you should also be playing the fan of knives talents probably

abstract stratus
#

ngl i only press fan if im disarmed should i be pressing it otherwise?

jaunty osprey
#

When you can hit 2 targets

#

You press fan

abstract stratus
#

its really that valuable?

potent pivot
jaunty osprey
#

The only reason you play sudden demise with Zoldycks is because you intend on rotting multiple people

potent pivot
#

with the mut buff

#

mut costs more energy but still a more reliable combo point generator

jaunty osprey
#

if you intend on ST, DTB might be more impactful

potent pivot
#

spreading wound with fok is good

abstract stratus
#

lets just let ivan test the two talents himself when he gets the chance cause im not tryna say i know literally anything lol just testing stuff myself

potent pivot
jaunty osprey
#

Seems like an update to the pinned build

#

IF mutilate buffs are actually good

#

And play 4 set

abstract stratus
#

i also dont have 4 set i need taht

jaunty osprey
#

Next week!!!

proven field
#

then go blindside.. and play 4 set even more... just like me and..... no one else

jaunty osprey
#

Blindside

#

wouldn’t make sense cause they didnt buff ambush

#

smh

#

buff ambush 180% pls rito

potent pivot
#

could be good just for energy saving though

proven field
#

ambush free 3 combo points

potent pivot
#

if you're ST generating more

dark kernel
proven field
#

it saves so much energy

jaunty osprey
#

There are no energy issues though, you dont chain envenoms in pvp

#

you hold kidney for when someone rots a little

abstract stratus
#

some thiccums mutilates in here

#

{comparitivily}

proven field
#

i blitz though; I want to burn people quick

#

ive hit some 50-60k ambushes, it's free combo points, it fill stacks quick... feels like a solid win to me

jaunty osprey

@potent pivot in an assa patchwerk sim, how much does secondary poisoning do

proven field

just try it - at least in blitz... then you can call my brain smoother than a marble

smh!!

!fuu

Why dont u know everything

Wait it wouldnt do anything cause patchwerk sims are 1 target

BAHAHAHAHA

I don't mean this as an insult. But don't you currently not even play WoW?

jaunty osprey

he plays

#

Casually

dark kernel

That's my life

#

I'm trying to get glad off 6 hours of pvp a week

#

I doubt it'll work

jaunty osprey
#

Play this if you want blindside

#

And sudden demise

#

Thrown precision can be swapped with improved poisons

potent pivot

@spring bough said some shit like this the other day too

Where are ppl getting this idea OMEGAKEKW OMEGAKEKW OMEGAKEKW

No offense, but do you even play rogue

Idk that's weird

No tricks plays a lot I thought

what is NoTrickz

Which has been true since SL

SL s4, last season of DF, TWW, etc

so have we basically established that sudden demise is the better build in ***most scenarios? because if rot is the ultimate goal idk if dtb does that better

I still watch some LoL stuff and I haven't played that game in like 8 years

jaunty osprey

😭

severe helm
#

Yeah I do pve with friends at the start usually

jaunty osprey
#

for me at least

severe helm
#

cuz pvp doesnt matter much

jaunty osprey
#

Like any pushing in shuffle or 3s right now

#

does nothing

gleaming sentinel
#

Unless you wanna do blitz and spam with everyone at the start. But I’m too employed for that bracket

severe helm
#

Ill do a little bit of playing in shuffle early

#

just for practice

#

since so much changed

#

im gona queue outlaw when I get home from this work trip

#

just to see how it feels

jaunty osprey
#

Yeah, I tested the talents, know how assa plays, I’ll be back for end of season r1

potent pivot
jaunty osprey
#

Gonna pve for a few weeks

severe helm
#

in DF I got every class over 2400 in shuffle

#

was a great time

#

DF was peak for me

#

game was so fun

#

pve and pvp

jaunty osprey
#

Both builds are good

#

Notrickz should def add my sudden demise into the pins though LOL

potent pivot
#

I thought I did scrub

jaunty osprey

Zoldyck Dashing Sudden is so much better than the DTB Sudden Demise that people are playing

dark kernel
jaunty osprey
#

I see

#

LOL

proven kayak
#

Is assa good this ssn? I just delete people as sub

dark kernel
#

I've never been continuously subscribed to WoW more than now. Game is legitimately much more friendly pvp wise than any other game for older people

abstract stratus
#

i think someone already asked but why is regicide taken? or is it not anymore

dark kernel
#

League or Dota would be high ass impossible to play

jaunty osprey
#

Assa is good, yes

Is it as good as sub rogue or WW? No

jaunty osprey
#

dont do anything

#

you can do whatever you want with those extra talent points

proven kayak
#

I can’t forget what a headache was playing assa s3 of sl with all bm hunter running wild

jaunty osprey
#

Mutilate buff changes that a little

abstract stratus
#

so dropping regicide for sys failure would be kosher like a pickle right

proven field
#

for how much you press mut, it would be S-tier lol šŸ˜›

(Mut is like 15% of his dmg... it's a Poe Mut Joke....taps mic this thing is not working today)

ill try out some shuffles and see if mut still has the same value (i enjoy suffering)

go get some - don't worry I enjoy suffering too - I think Ivanrah has shook his head at me more in the past month than my wife has ever

#

if you could give the most important tips for a great at 1v1/dueling sub rogue, but a bad sub rogue trying to be better at 2s or solo 3s, what would yall say?

jaunty osprey
#

Abuse DR timers

#

and trinkets

#

If an enemy healer is getting off of stun DR in 3s and you have kidney up, don’t want until the DR is over before heading towards them to stun

jaunty osprey
#

bro was spamming mutilate and using blindside when it healed enemy targets

proven field
#

I think you and I use mutilate the same amount - I've been running Zoldyck/SD since pre-patch and was burnt at the stake many times as everyone was all-in on DTB.. I just... also do a few things unique to me that I enjoy and catch probably well-reasoned flack for (again, I blitz, I haven't pushed arena at all yet).. but it works, I have fun... and tbh, most talents... 1% up... 1% down... I don't think me taking Blindside will suddenly drop me from 2100 to 1800.. there's like 5-6 decisions you really need to make, then the rest is just small additive filler.. (you could run zero enchants and hit glad... but enchanting everything won't make you climb much at all)

jaunty osprey
#

Who tf is talkin bout me on Reddit

proven field
#

right now we're all tinkering with stuff, claiming something is better, but really we have a dmg meter that tells jack-shit and zero ability to ever isolate things properly so... a bunch of it is just feelings... some dude today...he's 2300, doesn't even run full Apex, dude was running DTB AND SD...

#

is he leaving money on the table doing that? I dunno - probably... but.. it works for him, we can't verify.. maybe its 200IQ

severe helm
# jaunty osprey

yeah tbh assa is good its just that sub is SO EASY for how good it is that most players switching to assa think its bad but in reality theyre just bad

jaunty osprey
#

Yep

#

I always say, Assa is really good

Sub and WW are just a lot better

gleaming sentinel

#

did anyone ever confirm that the outlaw buffs didnt actually get applied

gleaming sentinel

god damn it

severe helm

or did they

I mean outlaw is hard and sucks

theres just no reason to play it

proven field

they only show up in instances if it's like assa

unless youre a weirdo

in my extensive testing (i have played 1 shuffle and 4 2s games) i cant tell

Whazz making me want to catch up on conq on outlaw 🤣

abstract stratus

jw in theory if the mut buffs ARE working are we back in a situation like last season where ambush isnt even used at all in stealth and subterfuge windows?

jaunty osprey
#

Ambush isnt used at all right now

abstract stratus
#

off the bars it goes

potent pivot
#

I tried leveling a ww the other day

jaunty osprey

If you play blindside, mutilate switches to ambush automatically

I don’t see how people enjoy that spec man

good to know

i hate ambush animation

gleaming sentinel

gleaming sentinel
#

i mean yea do whatever you want lol

#

sub bores me, assa not my style i dont like managing bleeds

#

so i'll make it work

jaunty osprey
#

When an enemy healer falls behind on CDs, rot and spread pressure is more impactful

#

DTB and SD have no synergy together and that’s a fact

jaunty osprey
#

U just gotta reset it each instance

#

or look at the correcr round

severe helm
jaunty osprey
#

correct*

proven field
#

it doesnt show you any spell-level data though

severe helm
#

none of their buttons feel like anything

potent pivot
severe helm
#

I thought I might like it cuz I like outlaw but

#

nah

potent pivot
#

Sometimes just wrong entirely

severe helm
#

details does not give any more info than default damag emeter

proven field
#

and it combines stuff... and it randomly splits... and you can't really swap a talent and see if things changed like you could before

jaunty osprey
#

Sudden Demise with DTB is a weird combo

aoe bleed and rot (scent of blood, sudden demise) but also have reduced poison application chance and less energy

proven field
#

shit you can't even see if you saw a 100k envenom or if it was a dream unless you scroll thru combat log before it pushes off the page

jaunty osprey
#

Zoldycks and Sudden Demise compliment each other

#

Just use a scrolling battle text that shows spell icons and stuff šŸ˜‚

proven field
#

yeah I dont know why that dude was running it... I think he thought was maybe stack implacable until they execute for quick kills? I dunno

proven field
#

It was a big part of my play... the endless tweaking and reviewing

abstract stratus
#

if you go dts would you eve take deadly over amp like i was?

jaunty osprey
#

Obviously I scroll through details

#

I share a lot of my details with @potent pivot

#

And I can say that Garrote and Rupture are MILES above any other spell for me

proven field
jaunty osprey
#

I’ve tested it

#

Easy way to compare

#

play a round with deadly and amp together

#

Amp does 74k, deadly did 315k

#

Amp also buffs envenom damage

#

But the thing is, if you want to play deadly

#

you need to change a lot of other talents

severe helm
#

yeah depends on what youre testing

#

if youre testing a talent for like proc chance on Sinister strike on outlaw

proven field
#

you can't really compare two rounds too, so many variables

severe helm
#

its hard to count the extra hits

jaunty osprey
#

You need fatal concotion and virulent poisons

severe helm
#

or if I wana see how hard my bte hits to see if its worth it to stack zero in for burst

jaunty osprey
#

if you play deadly

severe helm
#

I cant do that

#

the new damage meter is just shit

#

frankly

jaunty osprey
#

I think you underestimate the amount of testing

#

I do

proven field
#

I dunno, I feel like you probably do a lot lol... you don't strike me as a casual person

abstract stratus
#

is the amount that amp buffs envenom worthit over the consistant tick of deadly is the question i have

jaunty osprey
#

I go by sims, actual pvp testing, practicality/playability, etc etc

abstract stratus
#

im assuming wounding and cripling is always gonna be ran so

jaunty osprey
#

Not 100% needed if playing with another rogue or bm hunter or warrior etc etc

jaunty osprey
#

This was before the two 4% buffs

abstract stratus
#

thats 4 poison no sd right

jaunty osprey
#

Yes

#

But I’m just giving an example

proven field
#

honestly though... dude could run either and never really feel a difference

#

maybe Ivanrah can, but you're top 1%

terse cedar
#

howd outlaw feeling? Saw kalvish team had an outlaw at some point last night

proven field
#

feels like for arena you'd probably do amped for a while until games start lasting longer, maybe deadly starts to increase in value for more rot

With or without the addon itself

yeah details is like kleenex or rollerblades now

Ye it’s just the default term atp

Then the vial energy

jaunty osprey

That’s feint energy

Might feel worse as assa
