proven ocean
#

Jpc not streaming means alot to me ngl

frail veldt

proven ocean
#

Wow’s endgame scene is dying slowly

frail veldt
#

Or that he quit

#

Oh

#

Yeah it is unfort

#

Pvp too

#

I think all the classic variations did segment the population

proven ocean
#

Ramfam is gone, windi’s prime days pushing era in bfa is gone

#

We had really big names back then

pastel sierra
proven ocean
#

#

Fem was a rly good tank

strong halo
proven ocean
#

Competetive against naowh etc

dawn talon
frail veldt
#

Streamers feel obligated to stream he one with highest view count

proven ocean
#

My player frame isn’t the same however it used to be

#

In DF

#

then i changed it

#

Idk if u saw my current ui but my rogue package’s style is the same

#

I kinda changed it to shadowy theme

craggy barn
#

show

strong halo
#

I haven’t seen urs in. While let me check it out l. Maybe if you streamed more 👀👀

proven ocean
#

U can find it in my vods

frail veldt
#

I wanted to change my icons similar to the high res ones you have @proven ocean but my brain is just SO trained on the classic ones

#

Yours look so much better though

proven ocean
#

Classic ones are cooked

strong halo
#

I have the HD icons. Mage discord roasted my Ui so I had to step my game up

craggy barn
#

why do u care what mages think

stiff vector
covert kestrel
strong halo
#

This was a while ago like 1 year lol

#

Something bout icons being low res

frail veldt
#

Pretty clean

#

Except!

#

For the fucking rectangles

#

I hate the squished icons

lime lake
#

wtf

#

the rectangles are bis

#

and i will not accept slander

frail veldt
#

Dwarf ass lookin ui

strong halo
craggy barn
#

u should try out my text only rogue ui 🙂

#

i have not updated it since s1

lime lake
#

ok now im interested

craggy barn
#

it is giga cursed

strong halo
lime lake
#

this is insanely cursed

#

i love it

torpid fiber
#

Text only WA pack that recreates icons in ascii art when

craggy barn
#

i was able to play with it for a while

#

but i got bored of it

strong halo
#

Imo I think atrocity ui is goated idk if it’s optimal for rogue tho

pastel sierra
#

Theres no optimal ui for anything

craggy barn
#

now that i brought it up, i might update the text only pack OMEGALUL

lime lake
#

optimal is whatever works best for you

#

im not a huge fan of his ui personally but obviously a lot of people are

#

and its definitely well made

craggy barn
#

apparently someone comented on one of my other weak aura packs months ago and i never saw it

strong halo
#

I like tracking the bare minimum

lime lake
#

can probably disable whatever you dont want to track, thats what i do normally with wa packs

#

though some implode when you do that

craggy barn
#

god this is cursed

lime lake
#

honestly i want to use this for a raid night just so when people watch my pov they get stunlocked

craggy barn
#

i ahve to add in the UB stuff

strong halo
#

That’s a wild ui ngl

#

Mad respect though

craggy barn
#

ub and escalating blades added

#

pepw

tender wedge

Cursed cursed cursed

craggy barn
lime lake
#

holy fuck

#

we've ascended

#

now i need text only unit frames

pastel sierra
#

Just put numbers for alive/total ppl

#

Maybe with role

#

Who needs to see health bars

#

On rogue

#

Like

glass grove
#

!fuu

ornate heathBOT
pastel sierra
#

2/2 tanks
3/4 healers
10/14 dps

craggy barn
#

god im too lazy to do a full on ui text only overhaul

stray star
gaunt phoenix
#

i dont think assassination is done

nocturne mirage
#

Just scroll back in the channel the last hour for the good PTR sim talk

lime lake
#

text only nameplates

craggy barn
#

nah im done messing with it

lime lake
#

i might look into it later

#

and make something cursed

craggy barn
#

i was wrong, i made this back in s3 df

#

so it was missing all the hero talent shit

#

which i added ds and trickster

haughty wigeon
#

come back when its live

stray star
gaunt phoenix
#

the actual patchwerk numbers are largely useless anyway

imo the sheet is most useful when he adds trinket comparisons and such

keen belfry
#

just thought about fatebound

#

nightmares

latent oak
#

flipping coins is cool

#

!!

digital linden
#

is there any way to see the effect on dps for each tier set on specs, just to compare the increase

stray star
gaunt phoenix
#

it's still mostly vers

#

fully geared prolly has like 27000 vers 10000 crit

#

at some point vers and crit are fairly similar so just have to ask top gear

agile quiver
#

with the new Killing Spree, what happens if your initial target dies?

gaunt phoenix
#

its not targeted, you just keep firing

#

if there are targets nearby, you shoot at them, if not, you hit nothing

tender wedge
#

Another KS win, add it to the board boys

knotty oriole
#

idk if this was answered already, do we use dispatch on 5 + cp if you have coup de grace buff?

prisma pelican
#

Hey is there an addon that auto press or macro Vanish under certain conditions ?

solemn drift
#

You don't want to do that

covert kestrel
topaz spoke
#

our damage is so flat..

craggy barn
#

ill let shindig explain it to u

gaunt phoenix
#

that specific image is cause of the variable cooldown reduction

#

Ofc we kinda dip in and out of vanish

daring oxide
#

I've woken up at 5 10 am specifically to buy wow tokens at the PEAK

#

EU boys in 2mins (5 : 11 : 52secs) wow tokens gonna hit giga peak time to buy

lime lake
daring oxide
#

i think its hit the peak

#

time to buyyyyyyyyyy

frail veldt
#

holyyyy

craggy barn
#

hm why the fuck are my weak auras that are anchored to my focus loading on login when i dont even have a focus

frail veldt
#

idk blizz ui update maybe

craggy barn
#

!wa

rare moth
#

Can one of y'all explain this to me

daring oxide
#

are you 10 ilvl

rare moth
#

What

daring oxide
#

?

rare moth
#

Im lvl 22

daring oxide
#

what ilvl is your gear

frail veldt
daring oxide
#

ok ye

frail veldt
#

you didnt ask a question

daring oxide
#

i explained why your damage is donut level

rare moth
daring oxide
#

ok so you spend your CP

frail veldt
#

damage based on combo points

#

so you build combo points

#

then you can press dispatch

daring oxide
#

more CP u spend, more empowered your finisher is

frail veldt
#

and consume them

#

and do damage

rare moth
#

So what makes it different to Evicerate?

frail veldt
#

right now? nothing

daring oxide
#

Dispatch = outlaw

#

Eviscerate = sub

rare moth
#

Wait wtf

daring oxide
#

Envenom = Assa

frail veldt
#

later on, mostly nothing but yeah dispatch is just an outlaw flavored eviscerate

rare moth
#

It replaced it!

frail veldt
#

yes

rare moth
#

It replaced my Evicerate!

frail veldt
#

now spec assa

#

and itll be envenom

daring oxide
#

omg it did!

frail veldt
#

eviscerate is for sub rogue

daring oxide
#

wow

rare moth
daring oxide
#

because

#

blizzard design

frail veldt
#

thats how wow does flavor

#

its just fantasy

daring oxide
#

its like how half the mounts in this game have the same skeleton just different cosmetic surgery

frail veldt
#

its a game

rare moth
daring oxide
#

but youve made the right choice playing outlaw

frail veldt
#

yeah its just their way of making each spec feel a little unique from each other

rare moth
#

Im sorry, they don't really do this for mage and thats the only class I've played for 10+ years

frail veldt
#

same way mage has fireball

#

frostbolt

#

and arcane blast

daring oxide
#

the other two specs are for crayon munchers

frail veldt
#

even though theyre all the same button

#

and yes I know technically mage keeps the others

rare moth
grim spear
rare moth
#

Arcane would be atrocious to play without it

lime lake
#

good thing combat weak auras are perfectly safe and not going anywhere

rare moth
#

True

lime lake
rare moth
#

Although

#

They should put that barrage helper directly into the game

frail veldt
#

dont worry

lime lake
#

i never worry

frail veldt
#

nothing blizzard has said implies they will be removing WAs

lime lake
#

imagine having frown lines

frail veldt
#

the only thing they have implied is that they want to make having WAs less valuable

rare moth
#

Btw I know I don't have to worry about it rn, but Im basically pressing 234 and I just wanna ask...When do you press the die?

frail veldt
#

at your level there is no rule

rare moth
#

I guess so, Im jw

frail veldt
#

outlaw changes a LOT as you move more into the tree

rare moth
#

I see I see

frail veldt
#

if I were you id just press it whenver your buff runs out

#

it gives you 1 of 6 buffs

#

sometimes 2 and sometimes 5

gaunt phoenix
#

this person has asked like 3 times what to do and you keep replying "dont worry about it"

gaunt phoenix
#

like

#

respectfully that's not an answer

rare moth
#

Everything dies so quickly 😭 I only die if I have more than 1 enemy

rare moth
frail veldt
rare moth
#

He's amazing

gaunt phoenix
#

true

rare moth
daring oxide
frail veldt
#

but yeah itll be hard to identify whether you have one of the rtb buffs

#

unless you download a wa

#

because its 1 of 6 unique buffs

daring oxide
#

there are more rules behind it but i just keep it simple for ye

rare moth
daring oxide
#

whenever its up

frail veldt
#

he means 1 of the 6 rtb buffs

#

there are 6 buffs that rtb can give you

rare moth
#

Oh mewo, I'm a girl :3

frail veldt
#

thats fine I was referring to vai

#

as the he

rare moth
#

Oh

rare moth
daring oxide
#

i am the he

frail veldt
#

for now I would just roll every 30ish seconds

rare moth
#

I will say, grappling hook? 10/10 skip in caves

frail veldt
#

grapple is amazing

#

you get 4 of them later on

#

outlaw makes mage seem like a turtle

rare moth
#

Especially the fact I can use it stealthed

rare moth
frail veldt
#

also I just want to make youre aware, outlaw can feel pretty awful during the leveling experience

daring oxide
frail veldt
#

so dont let the leveling experience discourage you

#

the spec really isnt "complete" until youre max level

#

like a lot of its mechanics just dont function very well before max level

rare moth
daring oxide
frail veldt
#

and even while leveling since outlaw relies on restealths/vanishes to do its proper rotation and vanishing while fighting a mob can cause it to reset

frail veldt
#

if you find outlaw feeling too slow

rare moth
daring oxide
rare moth
frail veldt
#

LOL

#

yeah it can slow down a little eventually

#

compared to the other two specs

#

especially from 70-80

rare moth
frail veldt
#

eh

#

rogue doesnt 1:1 translate other than fire ~= outlaw

daring oxide
rare moth
#

LMAO

#

Not the ret paladin 😭

daring oxide
#

whatever you do dont link screenshots of logs or details in the assa channel, their sensitive souls will be pained and they'll be upset over nothing

#

tread carefully

#

also outlaw leveling is really fast

#

once you learn more talents you'll be one shotting most things very quickly when coming out of stealth

daring oxide
neat mist
#

The hivemind council of Assa is indeed not upset

rare moth
daring oxide
frail veldt
daring oxide
#

whats SQW?

#

oh

neat mist
#

Spell queue window

frail veldt
#

or your ejust saying it sparks a huge discussion every time

daring oxide
#

spell queue window

frail veldt
daring oxide
#

lmao

frail veldt
#

this dude

daring oxide
#

i just call it spell queue man

gritty sail
#

Spell queue window

gaunt phoenix
#

spell queue window

rare moth
daring oxide
#

ok

neat mist
#

spell queue window

daring oxide
#

i 100% understand

neat mist
#

it's a window man

lone spear
#

q u e u e
w i n d o w

daring oxide
#

forgive me pleeees

lone spear
#

spelled it, beast mode

frail veldt
rare moth
#

No seriously, do not mention it in there lmao they'll laugh at you and bully you

frail veldt
#

the spec kinda feels "hard" to play on the default sqw

#

thats wild

rare moth
daring oxide
#

well on the topic of SQW

frail veldt
#

its definitely playable without changing it

daring oxide
#

mine is 200 right now

#

and im not happy

frail veldt
#

but many people experience your button press getting "stuck" with too high of a sqw on outlaw

daring oxide
#

i need to figure out what to have it on before tier starts

frail veldt
#

which can be bad

#

since outlaws gcd is .8 seconds with adr up

daring oxide
#

yes

#

i cant play with 400ms

#

i get stuck

#

its too slow?

frail veldt
#

so if youre mashing the wrong button

lime lake
daring oxide
#

184?

frail veldt
#

you essentially need to react within 400ms

#

which can be hard

daring oxide
#

so specific!

gaunt phoenix
#

i think 183

daring oxide
#

hmm

lime lake
#

hm

frail veldt
#

182 even

#

if im feeling bold

lime lake
#

that might be too little but maybe

daring oxide
#

hmmm....

#

ok

#

i'll sleep on it

rare moth
daring oxide
#

184, 183 or 182

#

very tough choices

frail veldt
gaunt phoenix
daring oxide
frail veldt
#

and I have a 4070ti

gaunt phoenix
#

hm skill issued it seems

frail veldt
#

I thought you also said theres some wonky stuff with sqc

#

sqw*

daring oxide
#

i have a 5080 and i felt like my brain was dissolving playing with 400ms

#

with 9800xddddddd

rare moth
daring oxide
#

i see

rare moth
#

So I wanna see what they mean by "stuck"

daring oxide
#

ive never played a caster tbh except for a resto druid

#

so im clueless

gaunt phoenix
daring oxide
#

cos of the niche gcd

gaunt phoenix
#

i somehow doubt that

daring oxide
#

you somehow dont doubt that?

#

or you doubt that

#

what did u truly mean

gaunt phoenix
#

i somehow doubt that

daring oxide
#

dam

rare moth
#

Can I share a mage pov video here to show yall or is that against the rules cuz its not rogue?

daring oxide
#

its not against the rules of outlaw rogue

#

but it might hurt assa hivemind feelings

gaunt phoenix
#

yea you will be banned

daring oxide
#

no no

#

u wont be

neat mist
#

I mean

#

Why is he not already permabanned?

daring oxide
#

outlaws are freedom of speechers

neat mist
#

Just for mentioning mages

#

Come on...

daring oxide
#

@rare moth dont be scared its ok

#

trust me

#

you are safe here

gaunt phoenix
#

imaging playing the hero class mage and deciding to fall to the depths of hell (outlaw)

daring oxide
#

in this safe gold text zone

rare moth
#

Ok ok

frail veldt
# rare moth Wdym getting stuck? Can you show a visual of this?

so if this is your button pressing within a gcd, some people report that even though you are pressing pistol shot at the end of your gcd, because you put ambush in at the start of your sqw, it still ends up casting ambush when your gcd is ready again even though you wanted pistol shot

rare moth
frail veldt
#

ty ty

#

modern day picasso

frail veldt
#

me press ambush

#

but change mind and press ps

#

but game still press ambush

daring oxide
#

no i didnt ask for caveman

frail veldt
#

lol

#

aite you right

neat mist
frail veldt
#

I wanted ambush

frail veldt
#

but would you rather have

#

a delayed gcd

#

or an incorrect gcd

#

if you lower your window

#

you would have gotten maybe a 50ms delayed gcd

lime lake
#

just get better internet

daring oxide
#

who was it that was a 400ms advocate

frail veldt
#

but the correct gcd

daring oxide
#

was it @frail bronze

#

opps

#

@glass mortar

frail veldt
#

instead of a frame perfect gcd

#

but an incorrect press

#

I prefer the former

gaunt phoenix
#

yea, that's why some people prefer a very low spell queue even if it is hurting them over time

daring oxide
#

yeah i played 100ms for a while and yup was defo losing gcds

frail veldt
#

hurting the timing of their gcds but benefiting the correctness of their button presses

daring oxide
#

100%

frail veldt
#

I think theres a sweet spot

daring oxide
#

so i went to like 160ms

frail veldt
#

but I dont think the sweet spot is 400ms personally

#

though ofc very subjective

daring oxide
#

but then still had issues

#

so then went 300ms

#

and felt like a ghost was attacking me

#

and went back down to 200ms again

rare moth
#

Ok screenshot better, see how my PF is highlighted? Thats my queue. Pf is gonna launch with pyro

daring oxide
#

so your queue is 400ms

#

then

#

based on that

rare moth
#

Ye

frail veldt
#

yeah but mage motto is ABC

daring oxide
#

0.2 x 2 0.4

rare moth
#

So basically, how does this look for Outlaw rogue?

daring oxide
#

er

frail veldt
#

mechanically it operates the same

rare moth
#

Like do y'all not see it highlight?

daring oxide
#

well

frail veldt
#

well we dont have casts so we dont see it that way

daring oxide
#

no highlight

gaunt phoenix
#

i dont show my action bars

daring oxide
#

we have instant gcds

#

no casts

#

but

#

things can feel 'floaty'

#

at 400ms as outlaw

#

well this is just my feeling

#

but i really dont know how to put it in words

frail veldt
#

like in the shitty mspaint I showed, what can happen is you get a "wrong" button press sometimes

rare moth
#

Its windows built in screen record

gaunt phoenix
#

windows in current year

rare moth
#

Idk if you use mac, idk that one

daring oxide
#

i could but im in bed atm scratching my nose

gaunt phoenix
#

lmao

lime lake
#

based

daring oxide
#

my eyes are like 80% progress done towards closing

#

and will be in dream land

#

dreaming of the 10 wow tokens i bought today at peak time for a grand price of 472,485g each

rare moth
#

Bro I stopped attacking the dummy and I've had 3 time anomaly combusts 😭 Why can't this happen in raids/mythics

frail veldt
#

thats mid gcd

#

the rotational swipe you see on sinister strike, between the eyes, kidney shot is my global cooldown

rare moth
#

WHY ARE THEY WATCHING ME

daring oxide
#

kick the hunter and get a shammy

frail veldt
#

just playing with homies

daring oxide
#

thats so funny

rare moth
# frail veldt

Wait wait wait, im confused, is the highlighted 3M spell the one you're queueing?

gaunt phoenix
#

only for awang and no one else

frail veldt
daring oxide
frail veldt
#

nothing is queued in that clip sorry leme find a time when I have something queued

#

I dont really visually track "queueing"

gaunt phoenix
lime lake
#

the vents are npcs

#

so they turn if you get too close to them in stealth

daring oxide
#

lmao thats so funny

#

its even funnier because its awang

gaunt phoenix
#

well i dont think they do every time

lime lake
#

neither do npcs

gaunt phoenix
#

i see

lime lake
#

you have to be very close

frail veldt
#

I think most outlaws dont

#

you just mash the button you want next lol

daring oxide
#

ok eyes shut gn

lime lake
#

idk if you can distract them though that would be worth trying

rare moth
frail veldt
#

you can spell queue instant casts yeah

#

if you just mash ss it will go off perfectly in sync with gcd

#

as long asyoure mashing at a faster frequency than your sqw

lone spear
lime lake
rare moth
#

Ok maybe its cuz Im low level but do yall wait for your energy to regen between buttons too?

lone spear
#

thats how u wanna spend ur last few days with killing(myself) spree?

frail veldt
rare moth
#

Because Im trying to visually see it

gaunt phoenix
#

at endgame energy is not really a concern

frail veldt
#

its very feast or famine

lone spear
#

imma go on a world tour and record all the BS that happens so i can send it to anyone who says "i prefer the old KS" next season

frail veldt
#

when doing your rotation very well 95% of the time energy is ignored entirely

#

but if you have bad luck or you make some mistakes, you can quickly feel energy starved

#

but at low levels, energy runs out very fast

rare moth
# rare moth Wdym?

😭 Dude, try mage with the "Fake it til you make it" I played my lvl 75 gnome frost mage and for an HOUR sitting there with Soleah, I never ran close to out of mana

lone spear
#

which i personally dont like

frail veldt
#

its a very commonly observed painpoint for outlaws gameplay

rare moth
lone spear
#

i think it wont change to have energy never matter for us though

frail veldt
#

yeah thats sometimes accurate

#

but there are times where you play perfectly

#

and run out of energy

#

simply due to rng

#

those are the instances that people usually dont like

#

but theyre pretty rare

#

people tend to misattribute lack of skill to badluck though

lone spear
#

its most painful during crackshot

frail veldt
#

I would say 9/10 times energy starvation results from some amount of misplay

lone spear
#

i think theres too many factors to say definitively how often its cause of misplay

frail veldt
#

but yeah its similar to arcane where when youre out of aracne charges cuz you messed up and you have to cast the SLOWEST arcane blasts ever

lone spear
#

for example haste effects how much energy you have

frail veldt
#

feels fuckign horrible

rare moth
#

Ok maybe Ill see the SQW yall are referring to at end game, unless there's a video of this, cuz so far Im ngl, it reminds me of like Ninja Gaiden kekdog

frail veldt
#

similar to outlaw

frail veldt
rare moth
#

If you've ever played NG, Getting Ryu's combo's wrong will in fact kill you

frail veldt
#

as you play the spec more and you might notice the wrong ability go off than you intended then you could take a look at your sqw

rare moth
#

You have to get em right or he takes massive damage

frail veldt
#

but tbh if your sqw isnt bothering you then dont change it

rare moth
#

Idk if it is yet, Im only lvl 22

frail veldt
#

yeah and it sounds like youre accustomed to playing 400 on other specs

#

so I wouldnt mess with it for a while

rare moth
#

Unless outlaw is the "trial" spec for rogue?

#

Is it?

frail veldt
#

im not sure actually

#

I think in the trial you can chagne spec now right?

#

I thought you could trial all the specs if you wanted

#

once you get through the first few quests

#

im not sure what first spec it forces you to play when you do the trial on rogue

rare moth
frail veldt
#

that makes sense

#

assa is definitely the easiest to learn of the 3

rare moth
#

Ironic, frost is the one for mage

#

kekdog Assa = frost

frail veldt
#

in terms of difficulty thats probably accurate

#

im not sure how the mage community views difficulty of fire vs arcane

#

but assa arguably has very high skill ceiling in m+

#

so while its easy to start on

#

its hard to master

rare moth
frail veldt
#

I think each of the rogue specs thinks of themselves uniquely

rare moth
#

They view Frost as hard because they think its "too much" in comparison to arcane and fire

frail veldt
#

like outlaws think theyre the hardest but there are things about outlaw that are easy compared to assa or sub like cooldown management

rare moth
#

And they view arcane as stupid easy because of the Porom WA

frail veldt
#

oh thats wild

#

from the outside frost was alwayss the easy one to me

#

Ive played some mage

#

arcane felt the most compelling in terms of difficulty

rare moth
#

It is wild cuz the ONLY REASON arcane is easy is cuz of a WA

frail veldt
#

but I didnt use this WA you mention

#

ah

#

interesting

rare moth
random obsidian
#

how long did it take for you guys to become "comfortable" playing current outlaw?

rare moth
#

So you don't think about your rotation too hard

gaunt phoenix
#

like the month of bfa prepatch

rare moth
torpid fiber
gaunt phoenix
#

well thats not current outlaw at all

#

i cant read

lime lake
torpid fiber
#

it kinda is tbf
outlaw has just had a ton of iterative changes

frail veldt
#

so I learned it as the discord was developing the rotation

it's not like we went from bfa outlaw to current outlaw in one big leap, it was a bunch of small/medium changes every season for 3 expacs straight

random obsidian
#

i'm asking because, i'm doing alright with base outlaw (think DF s3)

#

but all the trickster shit

frail veldt
#

we def went from S2 to S3 in one big leap

random obsidian
#

just doesnt click

frail veldt
#

ah

#

so S3 to trickster

torpid fiber
#

s2 to s3 was a big leap but also i was playing kir in both and so it wasn't that hard for me in a sense

frail veldt
#

trickster did take a little bit of time to get used to

torpid fiber
#

HO has always been too big of a leap for my brain to properly get down

frail veldt
#

is it mainly the unseen blade mechanic thats giving you trouble?

random obsidian
#

It's like the added cognitive load is too much, for a spec that already has so much going on

frail veldt
#

theres a really good unseen blade tracker there

#

that can help ease the coggy L

gaunt phoenix
#

at least next tier you can get away with fatebound everywhere

frail veldt
#

also that yeah

gaunt phoenix
#

maybe not at the highest level of M+

random obsidian
#

Well the fact that I want to be using KS nearly on cd, but I have to think about if it's safe to use, then I have to keep track of UB procs to not waste coup procs but I also have to not vanish if KS cd is low

frail veldt
#

yeaaah

#

I agree its a lot

#

thankfully all that hard work and sweat and blood is thrown out the window for mastering KS next season lol

torpid fiber
#

thankfully ks is going to stop killing you in 2 days

random obsidian
#

sometimes I mismanaged UB procs, but then it feels awful being low cp with Coup and stuck between "do I SS? but i waste UB procs, do I send at low cp?"

frail veldt
random obsidian
#

it just feels unintuitive idk if you get me

frail veldt
#

or was that vurai

#

it is

#

for sure

torpid fiber
frail veldt
random obsidian
#

yeh dw i spent a lot of time reading all that

#

i just wanted to feel validated

#

in the struggle

frail veldt
#

its def awkard

torpid fiber
#

i know there's at least one other person here who plays 400ms and doesn't mash but idr who

frail veldt
#

theres a lot of competing priorities

#

and those priorities can feel crowded

random obsidian
#

imo s3 DF was very smooth outlaw

frail veldt
torpid fiber
random obsidian
#

and trickster doenst add good gameplay

frail veldt
torpid fiber
#

i have wrist issues but they're all for reasons unrelated to outlaw

gaunt phoenix
#

both trees are pretty wack in their own ways, maybe they get replaced next xpac

frail veldt
torpid fiber
random obsidian
torpid fiber
#

wrists got fucked

#

i'm doing my wrist exercises literally rn

frail veldt
#

but yeah if youre pushign title trickster is gona prob be better

gaunt phoenix
#

yea i wouldnt go fatebound for title

frail veldt
#

personally I found the UB stack system to be a fun minigame

#

it flows pretty well once you get the hang of it

#

you almost always do KS->coup->vanish->repeat

random obsidian
#

I wouldnt mind if it wasnt on top of like 5 spinning plates

gaunt phoenix
#

its just so strong at st that it looks similar in dungeony sims

frail veldt
#

like 9/10 times you can keep that cadence

frail veldt
#

are you also playing KiR then?

random obsidian
#

yup

frail veldt
#

yeaaah

random obsidian
#

I enjoy KiR so I have no issue with that

frail veldt
#

1pt fth?

random obsidian
#

2 fth

frail veldt
#

ah

#

thats good at least haha

torpid fiber
# frail veldt sleeps bigggg

sleep is SO big, for like 2 years after i initially fucked up my wrists i was on like 5-7h sleep per day and now i consistently get 7.25-8.5h a day and I can legit feel the difference btwn 7 and 8 hours

random obsidian
#

i want to swap to 1 but im too used to 2

frail veldt
#

4-5 hours a night

#

was horrendous

#

I feel WORLDS better now sleeping 7-8+ every night

torpid fiber
#

thankfully i don't do caffeine i was just staying up too late on discord omegalul

lime lake
#

yeah i would never do that

frail veldt
lime lake
torpid fiber
#

real talk i think everyone should try to get 7.5h+ sleep per night for a week and then they'll realise they're trolling so hard by not doing that forever

frail veldt
#

sounds like less hours playing wow

random obsidian
#

i just dont think about it enough i guess

frail veldt
#

it helps a lot

torpid fiber
frail veldt
#

essentially on the wa, if you have stacks of UB then prio SS as your builder

#

if you have coup ready or you have it soon(3 stacks and have UB ready) then delay vanish to get a coup off

random obsidian
#

you get 2 stacks after KS, probably 1 with the cd of UB, where does the 4th come from? rng?

frail veldt
#

theres no 4th

#

3 is max

random obsidian
#

what

frail veldt
#

for the "free" UB

#

do you mean EB?

#

escalating blade is the thing that builds up to coup

random obsidian
#

yeah

#

that

frail veldt
#

unseen blade is the proc that creates a stack of EB

random obsidian
#

yeh i'm talking about that

frail veldt
#

KS gives you 2 free UB procs

#

but you still have to press SS

#

to generate the EB stack

gaunt phoenix
#

it's rng

random obsidian
#

2 EB guaranteed after KS
1 from the natural CD of UB

#

so the 4th has to be rng?

gaunt phoenix
#

your auto attacks have a chance to reset the natural cd

random obsidian
#

ok ok so you don't always get a guaranteed coup after KS

frail veldt
#

it gives you free UB

random obsidian
#

yeh i know i mean

#

it translates into 2 EB

#

but you have to SS

frail veldt
#

so after KS you almost always want to press SS at least twice

gaunt phoenix
#

i think they are aware

frail veldt
#

but yeah the 4th could come from the cd naturally resetting or the auto attack reset that solo is mentioning

random obsidian
#

but lets say you have KS back, 3 stacks of EB, do you send KS, get to 4 EB, send Coup and keep going?

frail veldt
#

yeah

random obsidian
#

Ok i think its starting to make sense now

frail veldt
#

if youre at 3 stacks eb

#

press KS

#

then press SS

#

then youll have a coup ready

random obsidian
frail veldt
#

you want to consume that coup before you press SS again

#

cuz you will waste your other "free" UB procs

#

since you cant overstack EB

#

yeah honestly the more we talk about this its reminding me how confusing the system is hahaha

#

I swear it feels good once you get used to it

#

lol

#

oh wait the UB tracker in the !wa thing isnt the one I was thinking of

#

theres one from zac thats better

lime lake
#

foup rhymes with coup

#

you should be a natural

gaunt phoenix
#

true

torpid fiber
#

maybe it's pronounced "foop"

frail veldt
#

as opposed to?

#

coup is pronounced coop

lime lake
#

well it rhymes with coup so its foo

frail veldt
#

isnt it?

#

oh wait

#

im so dumb

#

its coo

lime lake
frail veldt
#

lol

torpid fiber
#

no to be fair it'[s a stupidass word

frail veldt
#

COOP DE GRASE

torpid fiber
#

we stole it but didn't fix it to be a good word

frail veldt
#

how do yall pronounce main gauche

torpid fiber
#

main gauche

frail veldt
#

man goesh is how ive found when I looked it up

#

but I feel like a douche saying it that way

torpid fiber
#

i think you pronounce the main do you not

frank finch
#

main gooch

torpid fiber
#

am i insane

#

i just don't talk about outlaw mastery much tbh

lime lake
#

real

frail veldt
torpid fiber
#

bruh

frank finch
#

ghosh like josh

#

eeww

frail veldt
#

no

lime lake
#

mahn ghosh its steve austin with a steel chair

frail veldt
#

I thought it was ghosh as is in to "go" to the store + "sh"

#

mahn "go"sh

#

where are the frenchies

solemn drift
frail veldt
#

bro

#

the lenght

#

of the intro

solemn drift
#

He's French

frail veldt
#

okay so its mahn goe-sh

torpid fiber
#

i will just be refusing to say it that way

frail veldt
#

LOL

#

I will be saying mein gucci

solemn drift
#

Mayne gousch

torpid fiber
#

I've been avoiding being racist the entire rest of my life so I am able to intentionally mispronounce french words without getting called out on it

solemn drift
#

Or gou-che, like touche

random obsidian
#

outlaw really is the french spec

frail veldt
#

Many pirates were French I think

proven ocean
random obsidian
#

i only know Charles Vane, who was british iirc

lime lake
#

who the fuck are any of these people

#

french pirates kinda suck

frail veldt
#

I mean I think it was mainly Britain France Spain and Portugal back then?

neat mist
#

fr fr

#

Where's Eustace the Rogue?

frail veldt
#

Google is telling me Spain was often the victim of pirating due to their gold and silver transportation

craggy barn
#

holy netease is banning boosting

lime lake
#

ye

#

england was also famous for hiring pirates to fuck with the spanish

#

a lot of famous pirates were privateers

frail veldt
#

The corsairs were state authorized pirates apparently

#

Via France

lone nebula
#

good morning
short question, did a break in S2 and want to play again in S3
will the head enchant (Visions) and and the belt played in S3 ?

craggy barn
#

enchant no

#

belt yes

lone nebula
#

alright, thx

torpid fiber
random obsidian
#

belt is really fast to get

#

like 1h tops

frail veldt
#

I never got that

lone nebula
#

perfect

craggy barn
#

i think it only gets beaten by mythic belt for us?

lime lake
frail veldt
#

Oh I thought even s2 the belt wasn't bis

#

Cuz they did some nerfs to it

torpid fiber
craggy barn
#

maybe i just know we do eventually replace it

frail veldt
#

What game is netease

vivid vessel
#
frail veldt
#

Aaaaaah

#

China wow

torpid fiber
#

I do think banning boosting is probably a good thing for the game

vivid vessel
#

Did they just make it illegal to boost in china or

torpid fiber
#

I think it's super unclear

frail veldt
#

Yeah seems like it

#

I mean

frail veldt
#

I'm fine with it tbh

torpid fiber
#

Account sharing is the focus of these measures, and any behavior involving account sharing may be suspecting of violating regulations.

random obsidian
#

Wasnt it like a whole economy in China?

frank finch
#

so my gold worth a little more now?

frail veldt
#

Be a hard stance to take that boosting is good for the game

frail veldt
#

Lol

frank finch
torpid fiber
#

my understanding is that cn had/has a huge account sharing boosting issue where ppl paid to get boosted where the boosters would legit just log into their account and play for them

craggy barn
#

shrug so far they said they only actioned at least 27000 accs

frail veldt
#

Only

#

Lol

vivid vessel
#

I mean without boosting how do normal people make gold tbf

frail veldt
#

?

vivid vessel
#

Making gold in wow is super degenerate

frail veldt
#

Beo

vivid vessel
#

Without boosting

frail veldt
#

"normal" people don't make money from boosts

random obsidian
frail veldt
#

Normal people do professions and world quests

vivid vessel
#

Ye they do a lot of raider and shit make gold from boosting

frail veldt
#

That's not a normal player...

vivid vessel
#

Ye im talking about people that play the game normally

lime lake
#

no abnormal gamers allowed

torpid fiber
#

the average player doesn't mythic raid i'm sorry to inform you

vivid vessel
#

Not degenerate that afk doing professions and hv

frail veldt
#

You're talking about the people who play the game he most

#

Which is literally abnormal

#

By definition

vivid vessel
#

Ye the guys that play the actual game

random obsidian
#

my not so hardcore friends sell m+ boosts to earn gold

lime lake
#

the majority of players get some gold from weeklies and shit and thats all they need

past sphinx
#

zac hows outlaw comparing to sub/assa next szn?

vivid vessel
#

Worse

past sphinx
#

rlly?

frail veldt
#

Y'all forget sometimes that the median player doesn't have aotc

past sphinx
#

where are we lacking

vivid vessel
#

AOE st prio

lime lake
#

delves

vivid vessel
#

Everything

frail veldt
#

Ain't nothing normal about selling boosts

vivid vessel
#

Xd

past sphinx
#

yay

vivid vessel
#

How am I going to make gold NOOOO

frail veldt
#

You aren't

craggy barn
#

theyre actioning against the specific 1% market

frail veldt
#

And that's okay

vivid vessel
#

No it's not okay lol

#

I think you don't know how much it cost

#

To play wow

#

To do m+ and raid

frail veldt
#

But I also play wow

vivid vessel
#

To buy consumables and shit

frail veldt
#

Buy less

craggy barn
#

it looks like they just want to ban boosting for the "esports" side of things

vivid vessel
#

Without boosting it's litteraly impossible

craggy barn
#

so u can still make gold boosting 12s

vivid vessel
#

Buy less what

frail veldt
#

Do more professions

lime lake
#

maybe you should just pull yourself up by your bootstraps

torpid fiber
#

I do think zac has a point here that the economy is fucked up in terms of cost to raid

vivid vessel
#

Just don't buy consumables or what

frail veldt
#

Maybe don't use r3 consumables every time

lime lake
#

spend less on avocado toast

vivid vessel
#

What

frail veldt
#

Use r2

vivid vessel
craggy barn
#

raid sales are gone

frail veldt
#

Or don't use them for bosses that you don't need them on lol

craggy barn
#

and chinese m+ teams cant just get free mythic raid gear now

frank finch
#

wait does this impct buying like mythic raid boost

torpid fiber
#

I think the solution is that like. Provide mythic raiders a way to get a lot of gold/resources or something

frail veldt
#

That's how a lot of people play the game Zac lololol

frail veldt
#

You're asking for enough money so that you can afford everything at all times at max rank 24/7

frank finch
#

this is only in china right

craggy barn
#

china raid sales are done

#

yes

frank finch
#

lol

#

oh ok

torpid fiber
#

like the problem here is that the entire economy and profession setup rn assumes that raiders have a lot of gold to spend because of boosting, but if that's not the case then it completely fucks up raiding because it's not like potions are going to get much cheaper

frail veldt
#

Yeah also it don't matter Zac youre safe

craggy barn
#

this is literally nuking the 1% market

#

nothing here says its nuking all of boosting

vivid vessel
#

Mewo

craggy barn
#

just title stuff

vivid vessel
#

Ye I know I'm safe

#

Just talking hypothetical

gaunt phoenix
#

Boosting for gold is completely nuked in china?

lime lake
#

just dont be chinese and you're fine

vivid vessel
#

I think this is probably only for RMT also

#

Just idk

nova sinew
#

Is it just rmt or

torpid fiber
vivid vessel
#

They didn't clarify

frail veldt
#

Gold boosts too

#

It seems

torpid fiber
#

yeah i also read this as RMT/account sharing stuff only

nova sinew
#

I think they also mentioned specifically account sharing as well

lime lake
#

it doesnt seem to mention gold anywhere

torpid fiber
#

it specifies "illict boosts"

lime lake
#

i do think its probably just rmt

frail veldt
#

Yeah acc sharing seems to be the big one

#

But isn't that already very against tos

#

Even though all rwf guilds use it

craggy barn
nova sinew
#

One thing that points to gold is then explicitly mentioning CE boosting

frail veldt
#

But in pvp you get banned in a heartbeat for acc sharing

#

Like insanely fast

lime lake
#

is there any evidence that rwf guilds account share though

torpid fiber
#

they are right though that the ideal world is they ban boosting and also make it so high end players aren't gigafucked by them doing that

lime lake
#

like they definitely used to, and talk frequently about how they used to

frail veldt
torpid fiber
#

I don't think rwf guilds account share rn

lime lake
#

but i tend to believe it when they say they dont anymore

frail veldt
#

When other teams were exploiting

lime lake
frail veldt
#

I remember him saying the opposite

lime lake
#

but he also said he wonders if they could get away with it

craggy barn
frail veldt
#

That "everyone does it for rwf"

torpid fiber
#

nah I also recall him saying they haven't done it in ages

frail veldt
#

Ah

lime lake
#

nah he explicitly has said multiple times they stopped doing it after people got banned in legion

frail veldt
#

I def got the opposite impression lol

lime lake
#

and while obviously he could be lying i do tend to believe this one

torpid fiber
#

he was specifically calling out how CN still did account sharing for boosts and stuff but outside of cn there's way less of a culture of doing that bc of previous crackdowns

frail veldt
#

Also p sure people have caught team liquid characters online and farming when the players are literally on stream not standing at their pcs

#

So idk

lime lake
#

he brought up that being possible as a reason why they dont do it

frail veldt
#

I would REALLY doubt they aren't acc sharing

lime lake
#

because getting caught that way would be silly

#

lmao

torpid fiber
#

I think rwf players are likely to be doing anything up to and including things that can get them a rollback/3 day ban and nothing more

craggy barn
#

there might be leeway when ur literally playing with people in the same room lol

frail veldt
#

There's no reason they would force their players to stay awake and do heroic splits instead of just acc share

craggy barn
#

account sharing could be specific to sharing account information and details

frail veldt
#

Afaik

craggy barn
#

wahts in the tos

torpid fiber
frail veldt
#

like

#

theres so many ways around this

#

from a competitive standpoint theres no reason they wouldnt be doing it

#

theres a reason the guilds tend to exploit even at risk of bans

torpid fiber
#

You're assuming blizzard would be unwilling to tie the burner accounts to mains

lime lake
#

brother if someone got banned for account sharing it wouldnt matter if its a burner, the person accused would be banned on any account they try to play

#

plus potentially blacklisted from official events like mdi

frail veldt
#

so you definitely could subvert that

torpid fiber
#

Blizzard don't have to prove anything to ban you

frail veldt
#

they wouldnt even know who "you" are

#

what

#

other than by IP

#

which is at a gaming building

#

there is no "you"

#

in this situation

#

they could do every race with brand new accounts all under the name zeross

#

lol

torpid fiber
#

Don't like 80% of rwf raiders stream their pov

vivid vessel
#

I don't think they can detect ingame boosting anyway

lime lake
#

and then turn on their stream, immediately be noticed and banned

craggy barn
#

there could be a legal difference here between physically sharing an account vs giving away ur account info

vivid vessel
#

I'm allowed to get a friend trough a resil key right

frail veldt
#

lol

#

like

lime lake
#

?

frail veldt
#

this is a stretch guys cmon

vivid vessel
#

And he is allowed to give me some good to support me in my endeavours

craggy barn
#

zac are u in china

vivid vessel
#

No but

lime lake
#

idk you're like imagining that if blizzard found out liquid or echo (or an ip associated with their buildings however you want to explain it) was account sharing they just

vivid vessel
#

I considered moving to china to start a business
