#

wouldnt take action in any meaningful way

#

do it

craggy barn
#

the only thing in the EULA about account sharing i can find is this

#

idk if physical piloting counts

#

like ur not sharing info, just getting on that computer

torpid fiber
#

i think that's Sharing The Account With Anyone

lime lake
#

you'd be sharing the account

#

though

craggy barn
#

shrug

lime lake
#

plus like whatever the letter of the law is blizzard can enforce it however they want

frail veldt
#

and log into your account

#

and they play it

#

its within tos

#

lol

#

I think blizzard intentionally bakes some ambiguity into their rules

torpid fiber
#

definitely

lime lake
#

ye they all do

#

so that if you get banned you cant go "well it says x and i only did y(which is x but just slightly different)"

vivid vessel
#

Ok can I just say that I think boosting for gold should be allowed in wow ?

#

Or is that a wild take

frank finch
#

no it hundo p should

#

imagine the rwf without that

frank finch
#

china cant compete now

lime lake
#

yeah i mean idc if people are boosting for gold

#

as long as i dont perma have to see ads for it

frail veldt
#

I mean do you think gold boosting makes the game better?

vivid vessel
lime lake
#

i dont think it influences me in any way

frail veldt
#

if youre speaking objectively and not for personal benefit

vivid vessel
#

Idk how you would do it without boosting existing

#

Objectively mewo

frail veldt
vivid vessel
#

All high end content

frail veldt
#

so it wouldnt relaly matter would it

vivid vessel
#

No that's not true lol

#

It would even wider the gap

frail veldt
#

instead of boosting for gold

torpid fiber
#

blizzard would have to nerf consumable costs a ton

frail veldt
#

guilds would farm for gold

#

its the same system

#

just a different method

vivid vessel
#

How do you think normal guilds are going to make money

frail veldt
#

by farming gold

#

theyd have profession players

#

on roster

vivid vessel
#

High end guilds will pay an army to farm gold with professions

frail veldt
#

to make gold for the guild

vivid vessel
#

And normal players won't

#

So they won't have any gold

frail veldt
#

yes just now normal players dont sell boosts

vivid vessel
#

Like how is my guild going to do that

frail veldt
#

I know plenty of friends personally in different guilds who do CE but dont sell boosts

vivid vessel
frail veldt
#

sure

#

cuz its legal

#

if it wasnt

#

they would find other ways to make gold

vivid vessel
#

And how

frail veldt
#

are you saying there are no avenues in wow to make gold outside of boosting?

vivid vessel
#

Yes

#

Nothing that is as convenient as boosting

frail veldt
#

ofc

vivid vessel
#

If you wanna spend your life doing professions sur

frail veldt
#

boosting is the most lucrative

torpid fiber
#

this feels kinda like tipping arguments ngl

frail veldt
#

I really dont think it would destroy the game quite in the way youre saying

lofty sand
#

Yeah but because techically because every1 is at the studio playing if there account is logged in from a different location then you can tell

torpid fiber
#

"tipping is good because otherwise tipped staff would make fuckall money" type beat

frail veldt
#

being played by someone else

vivid vessel
frail veldt
# lime lake

yeah im linking it cuz I hadnt seen it befor ehaha

lime lake
#

ye fair enough

#

i do think its an interesting topic

frail veldt
#

I remember when max was talking about he controversy of echo using the rep bug

lime lake
#

because like

torpid fiber
lofty sand
#

Well in that case yeah, but that would mean they have standbyers farm XD guilds wold do that?

frail veldt
#

he was also mentioning acc sharing

lime lake
#

it definitely would help the issue of splits

willow portal
#

is this the correct text for charged crystal?

frail veldt
craggy barn
#

yea charged crystal mentions charged bolt

#

its dumb

frail veldt
#

I bought like one token for the season and just did a little bit of pressions here and there

#

sure if you want to push top 0.01% keys its gona be harder when gold isnt an infinite resource

#

but you really gona take the stance that a small niche case like that is worth the impact that boostin has on the rest of the game?

willow portal
#

charged crystal or crit chain for dungeons?

frail veldt
#

cuz I feel like boosting as a whoel definitely negativley impacts wow

craggy barn
#

crit chain

frail veldt
#

you run into more bad playres with false credentials

#

you get less players trying to legitimately earn achievements that they can just buy instead

lofty sand
#

I mean for raid u can tell is some1 is boosted, Just by logs is enough

frail veldt
#

all to support the r1-1000 raiders repair and consumable bills?

#

I really dont thikn thats a worthy tradeoff

stuck sparrow
#

No flame

vivid vessel
frail veldt
#

lol

vivid vessel
#

In raid it's litteraly irrelevant

lofty sand
#

In raid it is

vivid vessel
#

And for m+ most people that get boosted don't play the game

stuck sparrow
#

sometimes you get a trial that honestly feels like a buyer

vivid vessel
#

Or it's super easy to know they are boostee

frail veldt
#

I think any amount of boosting hurts the prestige of all the achivements

#

and discourages people from chasing those achievements

stuck sparrow
#

raidnboosted people are super obvious

vivid vessel
#

Ok well

vast frost
#

not to be toxic but caring about achievement prestige is a bit silly

lofty sand
#

No guild will Pick up a guy with 3 ce with gray or Green logs, also if u look into its clear his boosted

stuck sparrow
#

since logs exist

lime lake
#

i uh

vivid vessel
#

I don't think I care about achievements ngl

vast frost
#

think you should go for such things for personal gratification

stuck sparrow
#

m+ title buyers are genuinely

#

mentally ill

lime lake
#

dont think ive ever heard of someone say "well i'd go for ce but people can just buy it so why bother"

frail veldt
vast frost
#

if u personally get enterprising or w/e this season

#

who cares about jimmy who was boosted for it

stuck sparrow
#

why but title if people know you suck

craggy barn
#

imma say it

vast frost
#

u still earned it

craggy barn
#

zac bought his r1

lime lake
lofty sand
#

Like a top 500 guild will wont Pick up a boosted guy, then whocares

willow portal
#

boosting is just work in wow, and idk why people want to do that

lime lake
#

why else is he defending boosting so hard

stuck sparrow
#

@lashga

willow portal
#

the payment isnt great either

stuck sparrow
#

CE sale gold is decent

#

heroic raid is shit money i agree

vivid vessel
willow portal
#

some guild mades did a +12 world tour boost for 180k each yesterday. Thats like less than 3€ per hour when calculated in tokens

stuck sparrow
#

Zac he gonna clap you as outlaw HOLY

#

clearly

willow portal
vivid vessel
frail veldt
#

damn they payed 12mil for it?

stuck sparrow
#

I remember i tried doing a 15 key boost in bfa

#

and holy fuck

willow portal
#

out of time?

frail veldt
#

thats insane

vivid vessel
frail veldt
#

12mil for one key

vivid vessel
stuck sparrow
#

half those “boosters” i confused for buyers

frail veldt
#

thats hundreds of dollars

vivid vessel
#

In time

frail veldt
#

LOL

#

what

#

the

stuck sparrow
#

absolute animals

frail veldt
#

fuck

willow portal
#

how do you boost a 21 intime

frail veldt
#

thats so stupid

willow portal
#

wtf

vivid vessel
#

You enter key

#

And time it

frail veldt
#

I mean they must have played

lime lake
frail veldt
#

right?

vivid vessel
#

I mean they play lol

frail veldt
#

they didnt just afk

willow portal
#

but the buyer surely has to play

vivid vessel
#

They aren't afk

frail veldt
#

yeah

stuck sparrow
#

nah mewo you know the most wild gold

vivid vessel
#

Ye

stuck sparrow
#

r1 selfplays

lofty sand
#

Buyer pays for a team not a booost

vivid vessel
#

And the buyers have to be decent

frail veldt
stuck sparrow
#

or rather rmt

willow portal
#

ok so he payed for skilled players and he himself had to work too

craggy barn
#

buyers for r1 keys are actually ok

azure vortex
#

Was buyer decent

willow portal
#

weird

frail veldt
#

the amount of gold

#

for solo rbg boosts

#

or arena boosts

willow portal
#

paying 12mio for doing work

frail veldt
#

its comical

stuck sparrow
#

Mewo you ever hear how

craggy barn
#

they just buy keys to be able to do them

vivid vessel
frail veldt
#

back in SL the gold boosts that my guild was selling for rbgs

stuck sparrow
#

avizura’s team pays the checkpvp guy

frail veldt
#

cuz raiders wanted 2400 for weapon

#

it was disgusting

stuck sparrow
#

to hide their toons

frail veldt
#

lol

#

thats wild actually

vivid vessel
#

At this level the people you boost are better than most people that play this game

craggy barn
#

like the pug market for high keys is non existent, and "boosting" at that level is prety much just making sure ur guaranteed able to do those keys

frail veldt
#

I did not know about this

vivid vessel
#

Which is actually funny

stuck sparrow
#

eu r1

frail veldt
#

well you can actually opt out of check pvp

#

via battlenet

stuck sparrow
#

avizura/nolifer/mehh played a team

#

i.e they played chars then sold them

frail veldt
#

yeah pvp pilot boosts are insane money

#

but its almost always rmt

azure vortex
#

How do you get that much gold

stuck sparrow
#

asbur got ip banned

#

for it

frail veldt
#

they dont even do gold cuz then its traceable

#

oh wow

stuck sparrow
#

xd

frail veldt
#

should have used a vpn

craggy barn
#

buying pvp boosts is unhinged

stuck sparrow
#

I mean wasnt there a meme for awhile

#

that any boomy on na ladder

frail veldt
stuck sparrow
#

was either asbur

#

or an asbur pilot

frail veldt
#

lol idk

#

I havent heard the name im NA

craggy barn
#

i think its more unhinged since its directly competitive instead of indirectly like pve is

frail veldt
stuck sparrow
#

eu teams have more variety

frail veldt
#

so like

craggy barn
#

like r1 pve boosts are buying access to those keys that u are still skilled at being able to do

haughty wigeon
#

i should probably get underpin?? done before tuesday should it

frail veldt
#

I guess the title counts but having a r1 title playing at 2k and losing is fucking embarassing

frail veldt
#

like in zacs group you could do pretty measly dps probably and still time it for r1 title level

stuck sparrow
#

although eu also has freaks like this

frail veldt
stuck sparrow
#

that was df

craggy barn
#

like id say buying 3k io is similar to buying glad title

frail veldt
#

ah

stuck sparrow
#

double french r1 rogs

lofty sand
#

Yeah but you need decent dps and u cannot die on cd. So u can do that key

craggy barn
#

both unhinged

frail veldt
lofty sand
#

Its Just u bought the teams time

frail veldt
#

takes way longer

#

50 wins is a LONG time

willow portal
frail veldt
#

and 2400 in some seasons is actually pretty hard

stuck sparrow
#

howton got r1 in sl playing ma venthyr sub with a keefers ww

#

funny shit

frail veldt
#

im not even remotely surprised

#

cheese comp 101

#

fuck both of those specs

#

genuinely

stuck sparrow
#

yeah he played mastery proc sub with bote in bfa

#

for max evis hits too

frail veldt
#

disgusting

craggy barn
#

is glad buying a carry service or nah

frail veldt
#

can be

#

yeah

#

by glad you mean 2400+ 50 wins

#

not r1 glad

stuck sparrow
#

if you buy selfplay not a pilot

craggy barn
#

yes

frail veldt
#

r1 glad is a pilot

craggy barn
#

yea thats unhinged

stuck sparrow
#

They also explicitly state

frail veldt
#

2400+ 50 wins is a commonly bought non pilot boost

stuck sparrow
#

they cannot guarantee you glad

#

via selfplay

#

xd

frail veldt
#

yeup

#

cuz r1 glad is just genuinely hard

#

theres like a very small handful of playres who could "guarantee" you r1 glad

stuck sparrow
#

pretty sure r1 pilot was

frail veldt
#

and they have to be in a season that has a favorable comp for them

stuck sparrow
#

over a few grand

#

usd

frail veldt
#

I bet

stuck sparrow
#

some wild shit

frail veldt
#

thing is

#

the players who could od it

#

also play in awc

stuck sparrow
#

yeah

frail veldt
#

and if you get caught

#

boosting

#

you get banned

#

from awc

#

so most of htem dont want to risk it

stuck sparrow
#

nolifer hasnt played retail in years

#

hes just existed selling pilots

#

he was a big tourney mage

#

Eu can get real bad

#

the russians with like 10+ characters

frail veldt
#

the craziest thing from pvp in recent years was the kick scripting

#

I cant believe how long that apparently went on

#

before blizzard discovered it

craggy barn
#

that shits funny

frail veldt
#

it was YEARS

stuck sparrow
#

i mean pretry sure in wod

frail veldt
#

and it took until DF

stuck sparrow
#

it was a joke that any feral lock team

frail veldt
#

to actually discover it

stuck sparrow
#

had a kickbot installed

frail veldt
#

but it wasnt even a bot

#

it was built into the macro system

#

to essentially "check if casting"

#

so that you could spam a button

#

and you could never be fake casted

stuck sparrow
#

theres memes of how nessper would sap bug

#

because he had sap macroed to everything

frail veldt
#

he literally does

#

I know him personally hes in the friend group I pvped with when I rejoined wow

#

interesting character

stuck sparrow
#

he seems an alright guy

frail veldt
#

he is

stuck sparrow
#

NA has way less rogues

#

than eu i feel

frail veldt
#

for sure

craggy barn
#

i wonder if theres a region class population graph out there

stuck sparrow
#

Was a joke for awhile

#

that eu plays jungle way better

frail veldt
#

but p sure nessper doesnt play retail anymore either

#

he just does classic now too

blissful zinc
#

How is outlaw kir compared to other rogue specs during mythic raids?

stuck sparrow
#

Like how there is no good na jungle

#

comparatively

frail veldt
#

yeah

#

I mean axtin is NA

#

but he doenst have a main hunter he plays with afaik

#

NA has a good cupid

#

thats it

stuck sparrow
#

Yeah theres good players of those specs

#

they just dont play together

frail veldt
#

yeah

stuck sparrow
#

Idr if fuse still plays

#

he was one of the up and comings of that spec

frail veldt
#

tbh the NA teams have been pretty stagnant

#

they just stay within their main groups

stuck sparrow
#

They multiclass much less

frail veldt
#

yeah

#

they dont meta swap as much

stuck sparrow
#

When you compare to eu tourney players like fuseton who play like

#

5-6 classes at r1

frail veldt
#

I think EU is more willing to meta swap

stuck sparrow
#

Yeah

frail veldt
#

NA likes to just play their main comp

#

and hope for the best

#

pika didnt swap off rogue much until DF

stuck sparrow
#

pika’s team before he became a league streamer

frail veldt
#

lol exactly

stuck sparrow
#

then chan went eu

#

xd

frail veldt
#

yeah whaaz's team did a lil mixup

vivid vessel
#

Mewoooo

frail veldt
#

sup bro

stuck sparrow
#

i mean pika’s team did try to diverge from meta

#

they just got 3-0ed

vivid vessel
#

You need a boost lil bro

stuck sparrow
#

anytime they tried

frail veldt
#

lol

vivid vessel
#

Only in-game gold

#

Only legal

frail veldt
#

I quit this season

#

ill be back next season

vivid vessel
#

Wtf

frail veldt
#

as in tuesday

stuck sparrow
#

I feel eu just plays more rogue

frail veldt
#

well probabl ywont log in til the weekend

stuck sparrow
#

in general

craggy barn
#

its so funny how class locked the top NA teams can be

frail veldt
#

I dont have enough gold to pay you though @vivid vessel

#

I buy one token per season

#

and try to survive on that

#

and just use r2 consumes the whole time

stuck sparrow
#

I dont tell people

vivid vessel
#

r2 ..

stuck sparrow
#

that i still use r2 health pots

#

ngl

jolly geyser
#

I use r2 hp pots

lime lake
#

based

stuck sparrow
#

Yeah i mean it gets the job done

#

rest is healers job

#

flask you can be cheap by hoping you proc a fleeting alchemical chaos

jolly geyser
#

Never use runes unless its the vendor one at end of exp

stuck sparrow
#

when you craft first of the day

frail veldt
stuck sparrow
frail veldt
#

I dont have time to do boosts

stuck sparrow
frail veldt
#

and I dont want to give blizz any more money

jolly geyser
#

Heh

frail veldt
#

so I just play cheap

stuck sparrow
#

im kind of surprised they havent disabled the df inf rune

#

they usually disable those

craggy barn
#

we paid good money for taht

stuck sparrow
#

We paid good for all of them

#

hasnt stopped blizz in the past

#

I probably wouldnt have augment runed this tier if the weekly vending machine ones didnt exist

craggy barn
#

rune acquisition is so dog shit

stuck sparrow
#

its either do lfr/hc dungeon

#

yeah

frail veldt
#

Oh I def didn't get the rune this season lol

torpid fiber
frail veldt
#

Shit do I have to go back and farm this seasons rep to get the inf rune?

#

That's gonna suck

stuck sparrow
#

i thought they turnd them off in the next one

#

they did for the bfa one

jolly geyser
#

No rune this season

stuck sparrow
#

and sl one i think

torpid fiber
#

they just increase stats so much that it's minimal bonus don't they

jolly geyser
#

Just the slot machine

frail veldt
#

Oh okay

stuck sparrow
#

Yeah this new raid has an infinite

#

and a no remove on death one

frail veldt
#

Nice okay

stuck sparrow
#

iirc

lime lake
#

ye the dh boss drops ones that dont get removed on death

frail veldt
#

I've never used a rune this entire xpac hahahaha

lime lake
#

and infinite comes from rep

frail veldt
#

That's how cheap I am

#

Not once

jolly geyser
#

Same

stuck sparrow
#

s2 you just have the vending machine

#

that gives each toon 1-3 per week

lime lake
#

i use the df infinite one and ah the vending machine runes

frail veldt
#

Oh idk if I even have that

lime lake
#

lmao

stuck sparrow
#

its also a passive gold source

#

ye

frail veldt
#

What rep do you need

stuck sparrow
#

if you have alot of 80s

#

the raid rep

frail veldt
#

I never maxed it

jolly geyser
#

The raid one

#

Galalalagagigo

frail veldt
#

Yeah I got to like 12 lol

#

I hated raid this season cuz of the rep damage buff

stuck sparrow
#

Didnt log in for the free max bug

frail veldt
#

Dumb system imo

#

Makes logging annoying if you don't play every week

stuck sparrow
#

idk why this tier they gave

#

a damage buff

frail veldt
#

Same

stuck sparrow
#

10 extra ilvl

#

a helm enchant

#

and a belt

lime lake
#

they had to make sure i could get ce

craggy barn
#

ye

stuck sparrow
#

all this

#

and i still watched people

#

walk into mines

#

and wipe the raid

#

I got my mount first kill

#

so we chilling

lime lake
#

we only killed gally 3 times and no mount for me

#

gg

#

its kinda ugly tho so i dont actually mind

#

people who actually liked it got it

teal garnet
#

nothing will beat Anurelos

torpid fiber
#

the mythic mount from next tier looks sick ouagh

#

gonna have to farm it in 5 years

lime lake
#

ye it looks awesome

stuck sparrow
#

its a tbc glad drake

#

basically

#

but not from 2006

lime lake
#

well yeah the tbc drakes are sick too if they had more than 13 pixels

stuck sparrow
#

i like how the heroic one is the nzoth mount

#

with armor on the head

jolly geyser
stuck sparrow
#

I sold my first anurelos to a guildie for 1.9m

#

lmao

jovial sedge
#

!fuu

ornate heathBOT
torpid fiber
stuck sparrow
#

Yeah what i meant

torpid fiber
#

the normal version of it is kinda w/e imo

stuck sparrow
#

i’ve gotten both ce mounts first kill so far

torpid fiber
#

but damn if the mythic version doesn't go insane

stuck sparrow
#

wonder if we go 3 for 3

jolly geyser
#

voidy drake

stuck sparrow
torpid fiber
#

I don't even raid heroic so I'm 100% on the "wait until TWW is legacy content" train unfortunately

stuck sparrow
#

my raid mount rng this expac is wild

#

got the hc ansurek mount twice, once week 1

teal garnet
jolly geyser
#

I bought the hc ansurek one

stuck sparrow
#

I still dont hace voti skin

teal garnet
#

ansurek looks liek shit tho tbh

jolly geyser
#

glad I did,saw it like 3 times after

stuck sparrow
#

got asmr from normal week 3

jolly geyser
#

I got it on 1 kill

stuck sparrow
#

yeah i sold the mythic ansurek

torpid fiber
#

the only raid mount I have is the antorus charhounds one which I got on my first kill in my first guild's weekly normal casual night the first time i raided omegalul

stuck sparrow
#

some of them i forget about

#

like the worm from tos

#

never saw the green infernal

jolly geyser
#

abyss worm

stuck sparrow
#

Yeah the worm was super mid

frank finch
#

anyone got a good wa that shows good info in character panel

daring yoke
#

hey guys, havent played KIR in my life. casting RTB right after KIR.

how do we ensure this can happen? does RTB cd reset when KIR is casted? or have to wait RTB available before casting KIR?

vivid vessel

#

ah okay makes sense. thx

hasty warren
#

Hi pirates

wintry solar
#

Hello

young prism
#

is outlaw viable for m+ in s3?

wintry solar
#

Yes

young prism
#

but we need to change hero talents for raids if I understood correctly

balmy topaz
#

Everything is.. it’s just if you’re wanting to push for title there may be better more viable options

balmy topaz
hasty warren
#

popo choosing the best cat for pp

young prism
balmy topaz
#

Pretty sure any fights that have 3+ targets will want trickster the rest fatebound

wintry solar
#

Trickster for M+, fatebound for raid save for some bosses probably

balmy topaz
hasty warren
#

is there a 2 target senario in raid ?

young prism
#

In season 2 I pushed to 3.5k (ish). Then it stopped there for me

#

(with outlaw)

young prism
#

I quit 2-2.5 months ago

#

and then they fixed ks hahah

#

I guess they were waiting for me to quit

balmy topaz
#

In S1 I pugged +12s on week 1 and it was hell

hasty warren
#

I stopped at resi 14 for same reason

balmy topaz
#

I left it after there

rare moth
#

Reading the outlaw FAQ cuz I just wanted to even though I don't have to yet and ngl, that's monkaW

torpid fiber
#

you just gotta learn it step by step tbh

normal forge
rare moth
torpid fiber
#

yeah

#

step by step as in you learn one piece at a time

#

the rotation becomes a lot clearer once you start playing it for a bit, it cleanly splits up into pieces ime

wintry solar
#

its a lot easier in practice

rare moth
#

I'll ask the dreaded question

#

Since I play Sunfury fire mage

Would fatebound or trickster be similar?

#

For reference, Sunfury and Frostfire, the difference is really just meteor. It's either an extra spell or a proc

#

You either manage meteor or you don't, aside from that, it's somewhat the same

wintry solar
#

yeah im not qualified to answer lol

lime lake
#

uh

rare moth
#

Oh I was saying that question to everyone

lime lake
#

well fatebound is just coin flips

#

trickster has coup to manage

#

and shit

#

so take that how you will

rare moth
#

Or am I misunderstanding and it's a buff?

wintry solar
#

it replaces dispatch

lime lake
#

ye

rare moth
#

Ahhhh ok

#

I know what dispatch is

#

Is trickster less RNG to manage?

vivid vessel
#

trickster is like

#

it can be a bit rng

#

but most often you just build to coup tehn vanish

rare moth
#

I mean

#

Oh how do I say this without coming across rude 🤔

I'm not saying it doesn't have RNG

#

I'm asking if it has less than fatebound with the coin flips

#

I know they both manage RB

torpid fiber

real talk fatebound rng is fake (or well, new tier set makes it real again which sucks but it should also make it kinda fake again) bc it doesn't impact anything but damage

rare moth
#

Also, since you brought up vanish

Is vanish not like a defensive? Why is it used in the rotation?

torpid fiber
#

subterfuge/underhanded upper hand procs

#

core of the rotation

wintry solar
#

it pasues adr

#

ye

torpid fiber
#

pauses adr and enables crackshot

wintry solar
#

between the eyes doesnt go on cooldown

torpid fiber
#

doesn't go on cd and also does a shit ton bonus damage from the free dispatch cast

rare moth
torpid fiber
#

it's not really a defensive at this point

#

we've been using vanish as a major offensive cd since df s1

#

and df s3 it became basically entirely one

haughty wigeon
remote pecan
#

no it's not a defensive, it was never rly a defensive but now it's a core rotational dps ability. the entire spec hangs off vanish with crackshot

torpid fiber
#

two charges means you can line it up as a defensive sometimes

haughty wigeon
#

i dont think it was a defensive at any point of its history

wintry solar
#

vanish is how you use it. It's very versatile

torpid fiber
#

but it's currently in a state of being an offensive cd with defensive utility

haughty wigeon
#

just a way to dip out of combat if you need to

#

which is never in raids

torpid fiber
#

yeah, never in raids but also came up a lot in M+

haughty wigeon
#

ya sure

#

but non of these people will ever use vanish that way

rare moth
haughty wigeon
#

or be in content where that niche becomes more apparent

#

i guess

torpid fiber
#

yeah, it comes up way more in M+

haughty wigeon
#

since i got 2 people saying that technically makes it a defensive

rare moth
haughty wigeon
#

but like again

#

its kinda something you shouldnt really need to do

torpid fiber
#

m+ you can use it to break some mechanics or break roots and shit or dodge CC
but rn it's way too important to the rotation to be considered anything other than an offensive cd

haughty wigeon
#

for any content unless its like hard content

neat mist
#

Technically dying is a defensive too

#

since it drops you out of combat

haughty wigeon
#

idk

lime lake
#

you dont require healing while dead either

#

saving the healer mana

rare moth
torpid fiber
haughty wigeon
#

i think at this point its completely lost its capability as a defensive

#

due to how powerful it is as a offensive cd

haughty wigeon
#

your fine

#

like im not trying to say anything negative

#

sometimes i just yap

wintry solar
#

the conversation of what kind of CD is is dumb ngl

haughty wigeon
#

cause now im like wondering

torpid fiber
haughty wigeon
#

if ive ever seen a rogue use vanish defensively this season while i was tanking

torpid fiber
#

you wouldn't notice

haughty wigeon
#

i guess if i was like one of them regular fotmers

random obsidian
#

it makes sense to not even think of it as a defensive since your brain will just associate vanish with more damage

haughty wigeon
#

and do like 0 damage

torpid fiber
#

yeah, think of it as an offensive cd at first and then you can start thinking about it as a defensive later on

haughty wigeon
#

to lose threat

rare moth
#

I don't wanna dip too far and cry

torpid fiber
#

trickster has more rotational rng on the basis of fatebound having 0 rotational rng

wintry solar
#

FB rng can be ignored

haughty wigeon
#

fatebound

lime lake
#

fatebound rng is entirely in the background

haughty wigeon
#

kinda funny isnt it

lime lake
#

you just do more or less damage

rare moth
#

Ah ok

haughty wigeon
#

funny coin is less rotational rng than trickster

lime lake
#

can legit just not track it and never notice

torpid fiber
#

tbf with next season 4p fatebound will have an actual gameplay impact, but even then it won't change rotation prio afaik

wintry solar
#

just makes outlaw faster

haughty wigeon
#

i hope they fix vdh demon soul bug tho

#

its gonna be degen to cancel feldev

lime lake
#

what is with this season and canceling channels

wintry solar
#

been getting 100% uptime on adr in some keys

#

with fb

lime lake
#

apparently spriest is canceling void torrent too

random obsidian
#

on live or ptr?

lime lake
#

ptr

rare moth
#

But that's personal, Im doing this cuz I want to

#

Not cuz I'm gonna be doing crazy deeps at the big boss in s3

torpid fiber
wintry solar
#

outlaws mobility is gimped in the world anyway

rare moth
torpid fiber
#

fire at least kills the mobs

torpid fiber
#

outlaw u press vanish and then the mob deaggros and goes back to full hp

wintry solar
#

grapple bugs out easily

blissful zinc
#

How does outlaw kir compare to assasin and sub during mythic raids damage wise

rare moth
torpid fiber
#

but i get ya

#

idk it's a stupid design choice that we don't have like "when you vanish mobs take 1s to reset" on UHUH or something

blissful zinc
torpid fiber
#

easy fix

torpid fiber
wintry solar
#

explains why he called vanish a defensive CD tbh

torpid fiber
#

like 95% of mobs you can but 5% just always reset

blissful zinc
#

Atleast it worked for all delves

torpid fiber
#

i love outlaw and i think it's an awesome spec but I will also be honest about it feeling blegh in world content

#

in delves it's way nicer bc of brann as well

fluid meadow
#

okay but next thing is that they give vision to every shit mob/pack in delves and not to bosses

rare moth
torpid fiber
rare moth
#

But I mean would it matter outside of a world boss or a raid boss?

torpid fiber
#

so if a mob resets once from you doing it if you're fast enough it's always going to reset

#

raid bosses it doesn't matter

#

it matters for rares

rare moth
#

Oh!

torpid fiber
#

outlaw doesn't really have good self-sustain and the strong sustain we do have is also tied to vanish

rare moth
#

Hmm I'll consider my mage only for rares kekdog she's a walking hearthstone anyway

torpid fiber
#

so you end up in a spot where you're going "ok but if i greed a vanish and the mob doesn't reset i get infinite bonus damage and a heal"

rare moth
torpid fiber
#

i've found outlaw is pretty decent for delves

#

except sometimes brann bugs out and leaves your party

#

and then it sucks

wintry solar
#

outlaw and sub are the best because of 1hour tricks

rare moth
#

Useless dwarf

torpid fiber
#

but outlaw has really good sustained damage + you have immunities + brann means mobs shouldn't deaggro except for when he runs out of the boss arena for no good reason

wintry solar
torpid fiber
#

also in delves you get to take advantage of frequent natural restealths, which are huge for outlaw

torpid fiber
#

between packs!

wintry solar
#

at the end of apack

rare moth
#

I don't get bonuses as a mage!

fluid meadow
#

or u just go in stealth and skip everything u can

rare moth
#

So true, big brain

wintry solar
#

gotta get the minions

rare moth
#

Ok I'll go for fatebound when the time comes

wintry solar
#

if youre doing world content you can do fatebound now

rare moth
#

I just got dispatch and a new poison

wintry solar
#

youll learn as you go

rare moth
#

And a few new talents

rare moth
wintry solar
#

I think thats just the regular HO build

#

read and think about what you need while leveling

rare moth
#

Like it made me do call to shadows? And it made me talent extra sprint speed and reducing the CD

wintry solar
#

dont worry about what we run, worry about what you need at lvl 35

#

what are you goona do with extra sprint speed? lol

#

your cdr is soooo low

#

I guess that high in the tree your options are washed

rare moth
#

So far my leveling experience has been stealth > Sap > Ambush > SS > Dispatch (or pistol shot if it procs)

#

Everything dies that way

#

Literally, everything just drops so quickly doing that

rare moth
wintry solar
#

they do but its for max level

torpid fiber
#

wait do we not take extra sprint speed in the normal build am i stupid

fluid meadow
#

u really cant learn things during leveling rn, like players did tw dungeons i just get kicked cuz i dont let them play and killed everything, leveling is so bad and useless

wintry solar
rare moth
wintry solar
#

yeah

#

its poss

rare moth
#

I got kicked on my mage once and I was so confused 😭 I killed everything so quickly too

#

I thought I was doing good and they got rid of me :(

wintry solar
#

they want to play the game, not follow the person doing all the work

rare moth
#

Ok but

#

I needed the mount

wintry solar
#

theyd just /f if they wanted to

rare moth
#

I had to do the TW dungeons to get the mount 😭

wintry solar
#

im just giving you their point of view

#

for some insight

rare moth
#

I'll do baby DPS then, only spam fireballs until boss kekdog

wintry solar
#

though

#

tbh

#

I just vote kick mages anyway

rare moth
#

No :( I'm so nice

#

I gib food

#

And portals

jolly geyser
#

mages either blast everything or are meh

wintry solar
#

consistently bad or good

rare moth
#

Sadge

wintry solar
#

and you dont find out until way too late

wintry solar
rare moth
wintry solar
#

you can learn the most basic stuff while leveling

#

spec doesnt function until lvl 70

fluid meadow
#

i mean leveling is just fast and maybe better to learn at max lvl if u r interested enough to not waste time and relearn things at any level

rare moth
#

Leveling should teach you the class imo besad

#

Maybe that's an unpopular opinion

wintry solar
#

it trickles spec mechanics at you so it should

#

its how I learn things

rare moth
#

Same!

wintry solar
#

going straight to max level is so overwhelming

#

too many buttons

rare moth
#

Exactly!

#

It's cloak of shadows

#

My bad, I called it call to shadows

wintry solar
#

sounds like a spriest ability

rare moth
wintry solar
#

its not

#

no precognition for you buster

ocean imp
#

In my opinion they should have implemented ingame class guidance instead of the OBR

pastel sierra
#

They have lightup assist no?

ocean imp
#

An instance where you could change your stats, have 0 CDs and have a proper explanation about how your class works

#

Yeah but that hardly explains anything does it

#

I'm fairly sure it's also not optimal

#

I really hate shortcuts like OBR and the highlight thingie instead of proper guidance

pastel sierra
#

You expect people to want to improve

haughty wigeon
#

I mean

#

We also have to consider

#

That the way we tc stuff isn’t the way blizzard wants us to play

#

Or atleast they don’t want to pigeon hole players into thinking this is the only way to play

#

Hence why obr and assisted is what it is

ocean imp
#

You're talking about the rotation?

haughty wigeon
#

Yes

#

Also like

#

People just need to read the spell book more

ocean imp
#

I 100% agree with that

haughty wigeon
#

Idk why more and more players are afraid of reading

pastel sierra
#

It also does not seem like blizzard really knows where to go with outlaw to make it more accessible, but that another can of worms

ocean imp
#

That's mainly why I hate cattering to the people who just don't want to try

haughty wigeon
#

It’s already some what accessible

#

It’s just not brain dead like ret or bm

pastel sierra
haughty wigeon
#

You press rtb

#

Slam ambush when it appears

ocean imp
#

It does not seem that Blizzard wants Outlaw to go anywhere kekw

haughty wigeon
#

Spend at max combo points

#

Generator spender during crackshot

pastel sierra
haughty wigeon
ocean imp
#

Given how it has been away from the radars for so long

haughty wigeon
#

If the guy is just starting out or just being a casual, explaining the arbitrary rtb rules to a new player that doesn’t have a grasp on the core is just dumb

haughty wigeon
pastel sierra
ocean imp
#

Explain the joke

haughty wigeon
#

Don’t roll off 5

#

And that’s only if they want to improve in the spec

#

If the dude is having fun

#

Like man

ocean imp
#

I wouldn't advice Outlaw to a beginner outright, it's probably one of the hardest specs rn

haughty wigeon
#

U have a lot of buffs from rtb, Don’t roll off buffs until it’s gone if no supercharger and tierset

vivid vessel
#

we havent had complex rtb rules snice sl

ocean imp
#

That's relative I believe

haughty wigeon
#

Like outlaw is more active than other specs

#

But like

vivid vessel
#

relative to what

#

our rtb rules are nothing now

ocean imp
#

Global difficulty

haughty wigeon
#

It’s not super bloated or whatever people like to say it is

vivid vessel
#

compared to whwat we had in the past

pastel sierra
haughty wigeon
#

If anything outlaws difficulty isn’t its rules or stupid sub 1% gains

#

It’s the apm

#

That people struggle with

#

And even then

#

You look into that apm

proven ocean
#

People think everyone plays outlaw 16 hrs a day for 5 years straight

ocean imp
#

Give me back Legion RtB where you'd roll until you get good buffs

#

Or 5 buffs I forgot

proven ocean
haughty wigeon
#

And half of it is spamming bte and or ambush

vivid vessel
#

thats it

ocean imp
#

That's for S3 right?

crimson thicket
ocean imp
#

Bone the rolls

haughty wigeon
#

I don’t think outlaw is as complex a spec people think it is, and if it is. Theres no harm in encouraging g new players into breaking the spec into steps

pastel sierra
#

When i learned S1 outlaw i felt insanely stupid not being able to parse 'roll unless you have this amount of buffs or these buffs and press KiR on 4'

proven ocean
#

Outlaw isn’t easy lmao

haughty wigeon
#

I mean it’s difficult but for other reasons

#

Again

ocean imp
#

There are plenty of easy to medium difficulty specs in the game, Outlaw is fine as it is imo

haughty wigeon
#

Apm stomps on causal spec entry than anything else

ocean imp
#

Heck, what are the current truly difficult specs

haughty wigeon
#

Subjective af

ocean imp
#

Arcane isn't what it used to be

#

Difficult by consensus

haughty wigeon
#

Let’s take our latest degenerate dps increase as a example

crimson thicket
#

I remember fire mage guide in early df had pages and pages just for openers

pastel sierra
#

I think cat is difficult

#

And arcane

haughty wigeon
#

Are we really gonna tell a casual player that canceling killing spree is required for outlaw

gloomy coral
#

"Heh, outlaw is so easy."

crimson thicket
#

Needed a PhD to play fire

pastel sierra
#

But i also havent sat down to actually learn them

ocean imp
#

Arcane isn't anymore if you don't take into account the Barrage flowcharts, which are fairly minor dps

#

No idea about feral but heard Max says it's assassination bis rn

vivid vessel
#

qol + dps increase

#

win in my book

rare shoal
#

New to the spec, can I ask why its better to cancel the new Killing Spree before finishing channel?

ocean imp
#

What if they divided KS' damage by 2 but you could use other spells during the channel

#

It's not, you can either cancel or not

#

It's the same

#

Or so I am told

haughty wigeon
#

This is the shit that makes them think outlaw is this super complex hyper rng impossible to get into spec

#

When it’s probably a sub .2% gain to cancel

gaunt phoenix
ocean imp
#

For fluidity's sake and class identity, I'd cancel KS in order to press more buttons

#

I'm a gamer

rare shoal
#

Ahk sick thank you for replies

vivid vessel
haughty wigeon
#

Think like a grey parser Zac

#

Don’t think like the no1 outlaw in the game

ocean imp
#

Actually, what's your point

haughty wigeon
#

My point is

lofty sand
#

Me see bar, me see bang bang, me wait bar

ocean imp
#

Outlaw is hard for casuals

haughty wigeon
#

Outlaw isn’t hard

#

It’s the illusion of difficulty

lofty sand
#

It is hard, hard to get into hard to min max

haughty wigeon
#

It’s hard to min max that’s the word ty tanlat

#

It’s not hard to get into

#

Slam rtb on cd

pastel sierra
ocean imp
#

What

haughty wigeon
#

Press ambush when it appears

ocean imp
#

You don't even dice anymore

haughty wigeon
#

Don’t fuck up cds

vivid vessel
haughty wigeon
#

Ya I forgot

vivid vessel
#

im not a caster player

#

i dont have a castbar

#

i do have a cp bar tho

#

cp bar is my cast bar

haughty wigeon
#

We used to press slice and dice

vivid vessel
#

i press button at the end of my cast bar

#

which is my cp bar

#

thoughts?

haughty wigeon
#

I call rtb dice sometimes

#

Cause it’s dice animation

lofty sand
#

Bro in theory u can learn the spec, but there are rules to follow which is as the highest apm spec its not easy. Because of that apm goes down, dmg goes down

willow portal
#

Should i try and learn KiR before next season starts?

ocean imp
haughty wigeon
ocean imp
#

Now that HO is behind yea

haughty wigeon
#

But like that’s the nature of the game and its player base

ocean imp
#

Oh

#

Yeah I agree

haughty wigeon
#

It kinda makes me sad when a casual player thinks they can’t play outlaw because they think they can’t opt out of crackshot or whatever in world content and time walking

#

When you 100% can

#

For the irrelevant content they do

ocean imp
#

But honestly, for 100% of things in this world, things are hard until they are not, and people often will not try (enough) and complain that its hard

lofty sand
#

You can learn the spec yeah,but difficulty is also relative. Relatively to other specs outlaw is really hard

haughty wigeon
#

Like seeing a person quit outlaw cause they don’t like crackshot cause vanish resets elite mobs

#

They didn’t even think of swapping out of crackshot for world content

#

They literally thought they couldn’t

#

Until I pointed it out during the Diablo event

lofty sand
#

Thats skill issue

haughty wigeon
#

And it was so crazy to me that this person thought he was forced to play this one way for silly fun content

haughty wigeon
# lofty sand Thats skill issue

Ya it is but it’s so wide spread and it’s such a self imposed issue that it’s crazy to me regardless, the one thing the talent tree succeeded in and casuals artn capitalizing on it at all

lofty sand
#

Well yeah it is crazy

ocean imp
#

That's how casuals play brother

in S3 outlaw is better for m+ or assa ?

#

Mm

somber ridge
#

Would you say the outlaw powerlevel in the next season is close to what it is currently?

vivid vessel
#

eh

#

somewhat

#

its closer to s2 than s1

#

its not as good as s2 tho thats for sure

willow portal
#

if i am unlucky rolling, is it normal to just have KIR ready for a while?

vivid vessel
#

yeeee

willow portal
#

so kir is just waiting for 4 buffs and then you click and once rtb is ready again you roll once more

#

sound kinda easy imo

vivid vessel
#

ye

willow portal
#

and i am not supposed to have the kir buffs running until kir is ready again usually right?

vivid vessel
willow portal
#

what makes kir hard then?

vivid vessel
#

Builders rules mostly

#

The fact you hold pistol shot sometimes

#

The fact you have less cp income

#

So you have to be careful with the buttons you actually press

#

The energy is worse also so you will have issues if you fuck up

vast frost
#

pressing ambush is fun tho pensivewobble

lone nebula
#

maybe this is helpful for the S3 !up command

vivid vessel
#

Maybe but it's ugly

vast frost
#

"Fisher's"

#

looks like the image is being submerged

#

is this image bait?

wintry solar
#

no its an image

mighty pivot
#

There was one around with a way better colour scheme

willow portal
#

why isnt kir using ambush?

wintry solar
#

Hidden Opp is what makes Ambush good

willow portal
#

but during subterfuge ambush gives more cp right?

gaunt phoenix
#

its less effective cps cause it cannot proc opportunity

#

And less cto procs

willow portal
#

hmmm

#

so kir has a harder time keeping ar up?

gaunt phoenix
#

No it's about the same

hasty warren
#

ambush use more energy too, or it's not relevant ?

gaunt phoenix
#

yea it does

vast frost
#

outlaw so fun, wish gearing it wasn't awful

hasty warren
#

btw do we know what craft we'll do first ? wrist and weapon ?

gaunt phoenix
#

Maybe ring

#

There are no crit vers rings

hasty warren
#

haste vers is good too no ? (idk if there's one tho)

keen belfry
#

If you need the haste sure

dense bolt
#

did they add a ring or neck to priory for next season?

#

i think i saw that somewhere

#

like high vers one

Crit verse neck I think

I saw something like this

#

@gaunt phoenix ive been asking since yestarday how does outlaw kir compare to assasin and sub in mythic raids?

#

I need to up my single target damage big time if i want to get in any mythic raids whatsoever

Wym compare? Like how it plays? Tuning?

#

How “easy” it is?

blissful zinc
