Are you approaching guilds? Being proactive does a lot.

quaint mauve
#

there’s such a little amount of weekend guilds though

buoyant cosmos
#

Yeah true

quaint mauve
#

so im trying friday wednesday guilds

#

aswell

buoyant cosmos
#

Lots more two night guilds but I never see sat/sun

quaint mauve
#

idk it kinda sucks though i really enjoy 4 day raiding if progress is being made

#

but fluid mechanics and thermodynamics in same semester has made that impossible

#

I got to 80, got my pirate transmog vibe and the pirate dragon time walking mount and went right back to pally for S3 lol Mostly push M+ so I think outlaw will be good, at least for funsies

quaint mauve
#

nothing feels better

#

it’s like doing coke for the first time

#

i love apm

#

and i like how the rotation is like complex but not too complex

#

and i like how incentivized playing really well is or u kinda do nothing

#

:p

buoyant cosmos
#

I think outlaw has the highest apm in the game

quaint mauve
torpid fiber
#

It doesn't have highest rn

#

A fire build has higher per simc

#

There's an apm ranking on the simulationcraft site

calm gorge
#

Actions per minute? Just making sure. Seems fun! Speedy and strong. Rewards great players too with more dmg. I like that a lot

#

Thanks guys, I'll dig into wowhead and icy for opener and rotations and see how it feels tonight

obtuse hollow
#

Did I miss something in the stealth window.. I often have to do multiple SS in a row during stealth window but I see sims rarely have to do that

#

I often end up doing bte > SS SS SS SS SS > bte then the stealth window ends

buoyant cosmos

#

if you dont have a good set of KIR buffs going then you do you SS a lot

buoyant cosmos
#

In the faq section, you can check this channels pins as well

The DH one is inflated cause it counts soul fragment shit

torpid fiber
#

ah

gaunt phoenix
#

The fire one is real though

torpid fiber
#

What about the mage one

gaunt phoenix
#

it's halfway rng but halfway making mistakes leads you to this point

quaint mauve
#

ah

#

bro solo

#

i was like

gaunt phoenix
#

but especially if it's the opener sometimes you just get turbo fucked

thats it pack it up

#

Fire has really high comboost uptime this tier

#

So they just sit spamming instant casts

#

anyone beat mage tower with outlaw this season

#

Remember when ret shut their discord down

cinder relic
#

It got buffed garf_sit

torpid fiber
#

tbf ret is insanely popular

haughty wigeon

#

lots of people like to eat their own boogers

torpid fiber
#

Imo not meaningful to use group popularity data when talking about buffs

haughty wigeon
#

tho granted prot paladin is real high apm

#

bear debateable cause you scrollwheel ironfur

#

i will not be pressing flamestrike however so im ia frostfire andy in keys

So, this list shows 3 Crafted Embellished items. As that's impossible, I am looking for clarification. Anyone have any suggestions??

late swallow

gaunt phoenix
#

we use lens

spring harbor
gaunt phoenix
#

you dont necessarily need to craft wrists

#

it's a low budget slot

#

basically any random hero track wrists will do atm

spring harbor
#

Cool, thank you!

gaunt phoenix
#

when we get a 3rd spark, you kinda have to decide/sim what might be the next best upgrade

#

could be another ring, or belt, or wrists

#

maybe neck but there are some good necks out there

spring harbor
#

Thanks for clarifying!

fair oak
#

priory neck goes pretty hard

elder phoenix
#

And no one fix'd it LOL

quaint mauve
elder phoenix
#

both rotation guides are missing the vanish >GS tech

torpid fiber
#

unless you mean wowhead/icyveins, in which case that's to be expected for newer stuff

elder phoenix
#

how long do we have to hold GS

gaunt phoenix
#

until you vanish

#

you have a vanish charge

vital zealot
#

ass sub only main for 11 years, I have very simple question, why ol uses dagger as offhand? is that always?

gaunt phoenix
#

you're going to vanish soon

hollow bloom
#

Also not using ambush during subterfuge isn’t on there. Learned that reading conversations on here.

gaunt phoenix
#

it's in the builder prio

ornate heathBOT
#

A dagger offhand is technically like 0.2% better than a slow weapon because it generates more instantpoison Instant Poison procs. That is the only difference, ff Fatal Flourish proc rate is normalized to be unaffected by the change in attack speed. Note that item level or stats will matter more than this quirk, or you can simply use a slow weapon anyway for transmog.

vital zealot
#

cheers 👍

frail veldt
#

so I stopped using cudgel and I swear im cranking WAY harder

gaunt phoenix
#

those sweet offhand item levels

frail veldt
#

I guess so

#

I only have hero offhand

#

Ive been doing like 15 mil every pack since

#

maybe just rng

#

but like 2 keys no cudgel have been ridiculous

#

Ive never broke 16mil with cudgel before

#

granted I 5 rolled but still

#

and I like made tons of mistakes in this pull too

#

im deleting cudgel fr fr

torpid fiber
#

I wonder if it's oversimming somehow...

frail veldt
#

yeah maybe that or like I dont play as perfect as sim so I vanish less or somethig? idk

torpid fiber
#

I wonder if there's shit keeping us in combat sometimes

frail veldt
#

ooooh true

#

like it isnt actually resetting when its supposed to!

gaunt phoenix
#

i dont think removing cudgel gives you 25% pack dmg

wintry solar
#

@fathom bramble are you trying to do 10s as a DH?

fathom bramble
#

no

wintry solar
#

okay good

fathom bramble
#

I don't have a DH

wintry solar
#

just declined him

#

even better

frail veldt
#

what should cudgel be overall though cuz for me its usually like <3%

#

which feels like less than the dps increase of offhand from adventurer to hero

spring harbor
#

Wait, we should use a dagger offhand?

magic shuttle

!oh

!macro

ornate heathBOT

Macroing gs is relatively "ok", be aware that it wont ever be entirely optimal: target swapping in m+ or putting it on a dying target for example. You can macro it to all your abilities.

Pre-key fuckery

  • rtb RTB TWICE some time before entering dungeon to get 4 Supercharger stacks. These stacks don't have a duration.
  • Just before key placement use adr AR into ks KS to get rtb Loaded Dice and 2 free Unseen Blade procs.
  • ks KS will consume one stack of Supercharger but the 3rd+4th stack are removed when the key starts anyway.
  • During the bubble, DO NOT rtb RTB or recast adr AR as you will lose the CPs and Supercharger stacks when the bubble ends.
  • After the bubble drops use rtb RTB again (now back at 4 stacks of Supercharger).
  • Before entering the first pack bf BF into stealth Stealth.
  • Open onto the pack with adr AR into bte BtE.

Having 4pc set is increasing dmg significantly rather then 2pc?

willow portal

is there anything i should hold or do for dps phases like on araz mythic? damage amp looking very sad

but idk, cdr based spec can't hold much

Cant really do something than

frail veldt
#

yeah you can try to delay vanish if it wont fuck stuff up

#

or coup

#

but gotta be very careful with that so you dont end up like dropping adr or something

vivid vessel
#

@fathom bramble do you not think araz should be played as fatebound pc

#

i lose this much on 4 target as fatebound

#

but i gain this much st

#

i guess i forgot there are also 4 adds sets

FB can get a nice big burst by aligning GS vanish and adr

And maybe for a big damage amp you can afford to hold with all those ready for a little while

@gaunt phoenix @fathom bramble did you guys know trickster and fb actually loses a similar amount of prio from added targets now

#

its mostly from 1 to 2 that there is a big diff

#

but after that

#

its mostly -100k per target for fb, adn -50k for trickster

red zinc
#

put the bte’s in the stealth window cuh

#

wrap it up with all this mathing

vivid vessel
#

no mathing

#

i was just wondering if it was still kinda true that trickster was the same prio in aoe than fb

#

turns out trickster just lose almost as much prio now

#

so

#

both is bad

Random curiosity, i see Zac is the number ranked Outlaw Rogue in M+ ... do any of the other say "top 20" players use this discord (post comments etc)?

Awang is a regular, nessa shows up sometimes, possibly more that I don't know the name of the toon of

in terms of typing, zac and zero are also top-tier.

daring oxide
willow portal
#

whats holding is back is player deaths ^^

daring oxide
#

so i felt like outlaw helped there

daring oxide
vivid vessel
#

for example

#

on his 2% pull

#

i think boss is dead if he is sub ?

daring oxide
#

yeah

red zinc
daring oxide
#

maybe that too

vivid vessel
#

so

#

like there is never enough boss daamage imo

#

when you do .x % wipes

#

idk

red zinc
#

did you kill saldahaar yet

vivid vessel
#

ye we did

daring oxide
red zinc
#

large

#

what the dimmy prog lookin like

vivid vessel
#

we on dimencock

#

i think we have p1 mostly down now

#

starting to see some p2

daring oxide
vivid vessel
#

p1 is hard af tho

daring oxide
#

i dont have prism yet

split grove
vivid vessel
#

ah

#

nah

#

if you dont have prism you play lily only

grim spear
#

outlaws do feel weak in this boss fight

red zinc
#

no prism antennaglorp

vivid vessel
#

i think

#

or what sims better i guess

daring oxide
#

ok

#

so i could use cosmic hunt as my 2nd trinket

#

with Lily as my on use?

vivid vessel
#

if you were sub (so top boss damage) you would have killed the boss CAUGHT

#

all im saying

#

+600 million as sub

magic shuttle
#

I wonder if fb could be the play on soul hunters instead of trickster

vivid vessel
#

so like

#

boss damage dont matter till boss dont die

#

thats all im saying

red zinc
#

its so crazy

#

Ive never seen saldahaar intermission mechanic

#

That shit got outgeared from week 1 on normal

vivid vessel
#

y

willow portal
#

i might have to practise some more sub then, later bosses also want sub right?

vivid vessel
#

ye

red zinc
#

might lowkey move lust to i2 on normal just so my social goons can see the adds

willow portal
#

sadly i am too dumb for sub currently

#

tried a 10 and did tank damage

red zinc
vivid vessel
#

eh

#

sub in raid is piss easy

#

dare i say its similar to sin

red zinc
#

You just need reps in raid

vivid vessel
#

on the scale of piss

red zinc
#

i mean every class is like that that you need to play it in practice

#

some more than others

magic shuttle
#

Fb sin is easier but sub is very chill

willow portal
#

sub just has so many buttons to time together

fathom holly
#

for you its easy zacary

willow portal
#

i like the flow that outlaw has instead

fathom holly
#

for us plebs its mathmatics

daring oxide
red zinc
#

I genuinely think every single spec is perfectly learnable by anyone as long as you want to put the effort in

#

nothing “too hard”

daring oxide
#

because on Soulhunters, if you are prio/focusing darksorrow, you still want to do similar damage to the other two, if you play FB you run away too much with prio damage on your focus target, and it makes it more imbalanced

fathom holly
#

sure thats how they are designed timmy

magic shuttle
#

Fair enough

daring oxide
#

also I recommend focusing darksorrow

daring oxide
#

also tell your melee to do it too

red zinc
vivid vessel
#

or well

#

nvm

#

idk honestly

daring oxide
#

because darksorrow has more HP

vivid vessel
#

its the same 2 target btu less 3 target

daring oxide
#

and also the last intermission

vivid vessel
daring oxide
magic shuttle
#

I'm seeing the tc optimizations so was thinking maybe fb can gain an edge

daring oxide
#

also if you play around prioritising coup

#

you can have really good CDR

vivid vessel
daring oxide
#

play swift slasher instead of deft

vivid vessel
#

honestly im unsure

daring oxide
#

for more

#

unseens

#

i played a mix of the two

vivid vessel
#

with the new apl

daring oxide
#

they were quite neck and neck on damage @vivid vessel

vivid vessel
#

i think fb is just better maybe

daring oxide
#

FB and Trickster

#

but

magic shuttle
#

Oh right, deft doesn't do much on soul hunters

fathom holly
#

i read all your messages in a french accent zac

willow portal
daring oxide
vivid vessel
#

vai

daring oxide
#

but SS is good for trickster, as it gives you more unseen blade procs, for more coups

vivid vessel
#

the prio isnt that much diff

#

once you leave 1 target

#

300k diff i guess on 3

#

eh

red zinc
daring oxide
#

ye true, its just losing that 20% extra blade flurry imo hurts

daring oxide
vivid vessel
#

idk

#

im wondering if fb isnt hsyut better

#

in intermission you are doing theorical 2 target cleave

#

without losing coin damage

willow portal
#

idk, some of these people are old so 40cpm might be the better level

vivid vessel
#

or i guess the coins arent cleaving

#

ye nvm

#

i think trick is better

red zinc
#

as law

vivid vessel
#

cause bte is cleaving

daring oxide
#

ye

vivid vessel
#

not coins

vivid vessel
#

noob

red zinc
#

idk didnt play law this tier

#

seemed far away

daring oxide
#

btw I tried one of tobfons cooks where we just finish at 5cp+ always

#

@vivid vessel

vivid vessel
red zinc
#

glad to know coins work even more inconsistently

daring oxide
#

my tails damage was much higher than BTE xd

red zinc
vivid vessel
daring oxide
#

but

vivid vessel
#

no i mean you claeve with bte cuh

#

not coins

red zinc
#

Ye

daring oxide
#

for some reason it feels a bit bad? i felt like its obviously less ace procs

red zinc
#

but coins dont work

daring oxide
#

but more cp efficient?

red zinc
#

Is what you said

vivid vessel
#

ye i think

#

i think coin cleave is around you

#

i have no idea im ngl

daring oxide
#

coins do cleave with flurry

red zinc
#

Huh

daring oxide
#

100%

vivid vessel
#

idk how coins works

#

wait im thjinking

#

which target do they hit

#

the coins

daring oxide
#

your primary

#

the one you target

#

they hit that

vivid vessel
#

ok but if i bte something else

daring oxide
#

then they hit that too?

#

whatever you hit your finisher with

vivid vessel
#

garf_sit so

daring oxide
#

lol actually

red zinc
#

Oh focus macro bte

then its fine no?

daring oxide
#

maybe ye

red zinc
#

Yeah you’re like the only person to do ts

daring oxide
#

#

Doubt he mouseovers

vivid vessel
#

nah i dont

red zinc
#

That would be stupid as hell

vivid vessel
#

impossible

#

too hard

daring oxide
#

ah ok so u use focus macro for this

#

ok ty

#

im gonna do this

#

thats why you beat me on Soul hunters...

#

hmmmmmmmmm

red zinc
#

Anyone that can check where the coin goes with focus macro bte rq

#

On dummies

vivid vessel
daring oxide
vivid vessel
#

its like 150k i think overall

@vivid vessel could I play full ST Trickster on nexus king

#

or is that absolute troll?

vivid vessel
#

why

reason why i ask is because parries are fucking annoying me

vivid vessel
#

just play fb no?

daring oxide

vivid vessel
#

ah

#

wait till you get to dimencock

daring oxide
#

sometimes we just have no choice to hit from the front

vivid vessel
#

the boss is in front of you btw

daring oxide
#

wait can dimmy parry?

vivid vessel
daring oxide
#

no way

vivid vessel
#

ye bro

#

yes way

#

you are so mad rn

daring oxide
#

what

#

how can this be

#

hes just so fat

#

you can always hit him

#

how can he parry?!

vivid vessel
#

remove parry from the game

#

thoughts?

daring oxide
#

100%

#

why is parry a thing?!

vivid vessel
#

no idea

#

to annoy players

#

clearly i dont see a point in current day and age

#

its wild to me how many of these type of things there is in this game

#

like actively making the game less fun

#

but they dont get removed

#

Just punishing melee for «immersion» i guess

#

Gotta play trickster on dimensius to never parry

#

Fr I feel like 80% of mechanics are just to miss off melee players

Little question I'm trying to play outlaw again in keys now that my sub gear is mostly good and I managed to snag enough haste stuff on the side to make outlaw work:

I have a very hard time reaching the 4-buff mark to trigger KiR in a timely manner in keys, now I still lack practice with trickster and the s3 tier playstyle, but is it normal and what could be the reason I'm really struggling to get those buffs ?

sacred fog

How big dps increas is 4-set compared to 2-set in keys, generally speaking?

tulip quarry
#

!Fuu

ornate heathBOT

#

There you have it

cinder haven

#

Could be that you have low AR uptime or you're not filling your GCds properly due to lack of practice

#

We all feel the loss of s2 tier which basically gave us perma 6 buffs though so if you have played outlaw last season it's going to feel rough playing this season at first

Hey Zac why in council mythic you are using Swift Slasher , not deftmaneuvers

DM is unfortunately a talent that is not as good in the dps department as it is good in the feels department

real flax
#

even with broadside

#

?

winter cave
#

ANd yeah I certainly need more practice

torpid fiber
real flax
#

I see

#

so basically on council with SS

#

you never use BF

torpid fiber
#

yeah

#

and it's a small gain for the 3t rule over just never pressing it on 3t iirc

#

vs SS is probably 1%+ dps (I don't know the actual numbers rn)

real flax
#

Ok so i dont press BF during the all fight execpt for refresh

viral ruin
#

!meld

ornate heathBOT
#

Night Elf does sim as the best race for m+, however there is a few quirks you need to be aware of:

  • you need to restealth after pressing meld to trigger subterfuge (there is a slight delay)
  • you cannot restealth against any boss (raid or m+) and some special global combat mobs
  • meld can break quite easily if you move or take damage
  • it seems that you need to break your stealth with something else than BtE to benefit from crackshot

wait still no tuning yet?

agile orchid
#

no, the game is in a perfect state

#

no tuning required

toxic laurel
#

tbf this is one of the most diverse season

agile orchid
#

buffing outlaw would make it more diverse you know Kappa

toxic laurel
#

as long as Zac keep drilling the high m+ keys the spec is fine in the eyes of blizzard ( maybe )

fathom holly
#

but you guys are also crying a bit too much

#

its not like outlaw is unplayable

frank finch
#

he doesnt know

#

its unplayable on the two most important bosses of the raid

grim spear
#

can I just macro gs into vanish for fb?

torpid fiber
#

iirc there's order inconsistency issues with doing that but don't quote me on this

grim spear
torpid fiber
#

Macros are really jank

grim spear
#

garf_sit vanish issue again

#

why cant just remove subterfuge and vanish stuff and give us shadow dance

#

so buggy

#

and disturbing in any solo content

torpid fiber
#

I'm like 50% it's not a vanish issue and rather that macros just don't consistently execute simultaneous actions in order

grim spear
#

There’s not much you can do about network latency

#

the real issue is that Blizzard should avoid this kind of design

#

having two abilities with no GCD pressed at the same time but still requiring a strict order of execution.

hybrid mesa
#

outlaw has shadow dance: "holy shit blizz this sucks please remove it i hate it"
outlaw doesnt have shadow dance: "bro please give us shadow dance back"

garf

torpid fiber
#

I also don't think it's latency my understanding is that it's basically a result of a similar reason to why we have the extra coin bug

grim spear
#

SD is just a bit weird in flavor

#

just renaming it would be fine

torpid fiber
#

Vanish fucking sucks in solo content

#

It's so tilting

#

Actual dogshit gameplay

hybrid mesa
#

tbh just remove gs

#

such a pointless ability

#

no thought no nothing just press it on cd and -40 energy

torpid fiber
#

GS is cool I like getting +1cp sometimes

hybrid mesa
#

no animation no flavor no particles

#

it contributes nothing beyond en extra off gcd press

grim spear
#

for fb with 4pc this tier, GS does do something

pure folio
#

i dont mind it

#

just make it cost less energy..

hybrid mesa
#

that's just boring passive reductions

#

it doesn't change your rotation or the way you use it, you still just press it on cd

pure folio
#

No it does change how you use it

#

Not drastically, but there is still optimizations on how you use GS

#

which is how outlaw is rn, a lot of micro optimizations that amass together to be big dam

hybrid mesa
#

idk i dont find vanish into GS to be a very interesting optimization

#

or a reason to keep GS

pure folio
#

its not interesting by anymeans

#

but it changes how you use gs

#

which you said it didnt

#

they couldve made it more intuitive for sure

stark viper
#

So what's the consensus on trickster KS? Is it better to fully channel, or just until you get the CP back?

wicked obsidian
#

better not demanding any ability change, it's like in politics election. it will not get better and the risk is high it's getting worse. see KS (ok it's not worse, but rarely better). why they need to make it a channeling ability... a big canon with doing high uncapped ae would have been to much fun i guess

indigo token
#

why cant they just replace vanish with shadow dance

grim spear
#

bc we still want vanish for utility right?

indigo token
#

ugh

#

idk

#

i just dont want crackshot windows to go away

#

i love crackshot

cinder haven
#

tuning when?

proven ocean
#

assa buffs plz..

magic shuttle
#

as long as sub dodges nerfs it's all good for rogue

proven ocean
#

sub isn't op

#

lol

#

its already falling off

#

people still think sub is broken when its always inflated first 2 weeks because of trinkets omegalul

magic shuttle
#

I think for prog it has some great phases to blast

proven ocean
#

and what makes you think its op when its literally not top 3 in log statistics

magic shuttle
#

like you can buff outlaw but I don't think that would make it better on sub on fights like king or dimensius

proven ocean
#

ur totally missing how classes get buffed

#

and nerfed

#

sub is no where close to getting any nerf

vivid vessel
#

ross

#

i checked some logs

#

casual did 2mil more dps than me in floodgate

heavy shadow
#

Is there some bug with BF on low level mobs? Like it doesn't work at all...

vivid vessel
#

without war buff, without dh buff, without monk buff

#

0️⃣

#

@proven ocean thoughts

cinder haven
#

maybe he's just better

lone spear
#

random 1am thought: is the smoke bomb talent actually usable now that killing spree has longer cd?

vivid vessel
#

@proven ocean

#

iirc tho i did like one or 2 gcds wrong on first pull so i did monksea dps was unfortunate

gaunt phoenix
gaunt phoenix
#

Distract is not on restless

mighty pivot
#

are we ready for the gigatuning coming tonight? garf_sit

heavy shadow
mighty pivot
#

it is the same yes

river escarp
#

It was the lesser of 2 evils when it comes to bugs

mighty pivot
#

this is due to the fix they did so that BF doesn't cleave dead targets

river escarp
#

^

vivid vessel
mighty pivot
#

if they cba to fix it properly then it's much better for it to misbehave this way

vivid vessel
#

hi ninjarobot

#

how you doing on this fine day

mighty pivot
#

hello zief

#

I am enjoying a blueberry muffin how about you

#

it was supposed to be for breakfast but I forgor to take it with me

willow portal
#

should i try and hold a vanish charge at the end of pillar phase on araz?

#

or like anything

daring oxide
willow portal
#

raidlead is asking me why i am below tanks in daamge phase

vivid vessel
#

you know what the annoying thing is vurai

#

tuning is prolly this week

#

and this is the strongest outlaw is gonna look this tier

#

cause people are killing dh boss

#

and not killing last 2

craggy quiver
#

Holiday today

cinder haven
#

yeah, we really shouldn't complain if tuning is delayed a bit

willow portal
#

surely they buff the spec with only 10 players

craggy quiver
cinder haven
#

a few more resets would be good for us probably

vivid vessel
#

we need tuning to come in like 3/4 weeks i think

mighty pivot
#

lock.it.down.

vivid vessel
#

haha

craggy quiver
#

Incoming ambush buff

#

Zac gonna play ho and like it

spare dome
#

remove energy

late swallow
#

HO buffs would go dummy

vivid vessel
#

10% aura

#

take it or leave it

mighty pivot
#

replace energy with ammo and introduce active reload

magic shuttle
#

Another 10% buff to assa

willow portal
#

sub stonks down please so i dont ahve to swap

pure folio
#

double it and give it to the next person 😔

willow portal
mighty pivot
#

sub stonks won't go down the way dimmy is designed

willow portal
#

why doesnt outlaw have a cannon skill

#

like a big ass cannon

magic shuttle
#

It ain't a full pirate fantasy spec

mighty pivot
#

i have a big cannon for you right here

willow portal
magic shuttle
#

It was in legion

willow portal
craggy quiver
#

I played otl on tswift nothing can make me swap

magic shuttle
#

But I prefer a more open ended fantasy tbh

craggy quiver
#

Dimmy is coming close tho

proven ocean
#

@vivid vessel did they forget a bout last season 0.1 title or they cancelled that

#

they prob dont want to make the same mistake as last season

#

ppl got the title in 2 days of work only

#

prepatch push OMEGALUL

#

idk if they're even aware of ppl getting it without pushing

keen belfry
#

I will 100% play sub on dimmy

#

Probs saladbar too

willow portal
#

sadge

#

i will get used to that in prog then

keen belfry
#

Sub is very chill in raid

mighty pivot
#

you are dead 0% so 100% alive

jolly geyser
#

avoid dying to do dps

mighty pivot
#

or only die when you are out of CDs

keen belfry
#

Having fun on arcane guys

willow portal
#

i am practising, this was a 12 flood

#

if only sub didnt have black powder, that would help me alot with the rotation

#

just give sub blade flurry and not just that trickster version

timid idol
#

crit is 2nd best after haste tax yes?

burnt dragon
#

anyone got sub action bar setup that will make sense to my outlaw-poisoned brain?

#

trying to learn this for dimensius and it does not make sense to me

frail veldt
pure folio
#

^

burnt dragon
#

probably true

fathom bramble
#

Probably better off having things be different enough to unpoison your brain

#

Or you’ll start randomly hitting otl keybinds when you shouldn’t

timid idol
#

dude im scared to try sub

#

you have to actually use ur cooldowns carefully

#

i don't play specs that require smart cooldown usage MONKA

#

only low cooldown shit like outlaw ret or bm

fathom bramble
#

It’s more simple than our vanish rules

#

Youll be fine

timid idol
#

bro i saw some sorta chart

late swallow
#

Big daddy lok with the words of reassurance

timid idol
#

with sub cooldown windows

#

i died inside

mighty pivot
#

just practise Shrugeg

burnt dragon
#

theres so many sub buttons that seem to do nothing

vivid vessel
#

nah sub is easy

late swallow
timid idol
#

earlier

#

prob was sl or bfa

late swallow
#

You had spreadsheets for cds

timid idol
#

i think i was trying to learn sub for ghuun raid

vivid vessel
#

Sub was even easier in sl

frail veldt
late swallow
frail veldt
#

made it harder

gaunt phoenix
timid idol
#

also i NEVER EVER remember to switch loot spec

vivid vessel
timid idol
#

so every season i think about practicing dagger specs

vivid vessel
#

That was df

mighty pivot
#

sub CDs are mostly the same sequence with some differences based on shadowcraft procs

timid idol
#

i never have daggers

frail veldt
late swallow
frail veldt
#

I thought they used it

vivid vessel
#

You didn't use it

frail veldt
#

outlaw used it

vivid vessel
#

Nah

frail veldt
#

ah

timid idol
#

ts good enough?

frail veldt
#

they used it in pvp I figured it was pve too

timid idol
#

i think i got this from raid

#

it dropped 2 of these, people only rolled for 1 and i got the other with an offspec roll

#

it killed my bar despair

#

I HAVE DOOR OF SHADOWS ON THIS

burnt dragon
#

mine had legion potions

#

i think im just gonna go one button sub for dimensius

jolly geyser
#

wonder if mine has blackhand stuff

cedar kernel
#

brothers

#

i saw the tuning

#

outlaw 10% dmg increase

#

in my dream

jolly geyser
#

I trust you bac

cedar kernel
#

10% aura

#

then we Rank S, the best reality we meet

lone spear
#

dude if we get 10% aura and are suddenly best spec

willow portal
lone spear
#

after i spent all week gearing sub for dimmy and saladbar

#

imma be so mad and happy at same time

willow portal
lone spear
#

true, but what is burst compared to doing giga dam for most of the fight

#

all the damage on saladbar matters

lone spear
#

dimmy probs could argue that the burst is still more import

timid idol
#

its vers first and crit 2nd after you go over 19% haste right?

gaunt phoenix
#

Yes

willow portal
#

@fathom bramble you killed araz as outlaw right? did you prepare the burn phase in any way?

gaunt phoenix
#

But eventually if you have like 9000 crit and 27000 vers, then vers and crit are basically the same stat weight at that point

#

Not exact numbers but you get me

lone spear
#

solo why is vers better than agi? is this just an every class thing

#

like surely thats not normally

willow portal
lone spear
#

yea

willow portal
lone spear
#

i mean those are sus

#

but theyre not entirely inaccurate

willow portal
indigo token
#

becuase its so alien to how I play

fathom carbon
#

Old rogue comming back for s3
KiR is the higher dps option if i understand the info correctly.
But how much dps loss are we thinking if someone goes HO? 5%?

timid idol
#

aite i guess i go get some sub talent builds...

#

and i go hit dummies...

#

and then we get buffs so i dont have to do this anymore

#

maybe i try sin instead since that's easier? clue

gaunt phoenix
#

so depends how you pull a bit

fathom carbon
#

But i would not be greifing if i run HO while gearing up my alt? I'll adapt and learn KiR if it's 10% though 😮

mighty pivot
#

secondaries being better than agi is a thing for sub as well fwiw

gaunt phoenix
#

you can be ho, some players push with it even

fathom carbon
#

Lovely

willow portal
#

afaik

timid idol
#

brooooo ts plays with thistle tea

#

its jover

lone spear
willow portal
#

teamspeak?

timid idol
#

this shit

lone spear
#

oh you're playing sub for keys

willow portal
#

sub macros thistle tho

timid idol
#

oh rly

willow portal
#

so not that big of an issue

#

also its proc based something

indigo token
#

Hey guys Ion here. Here at blizzard, we hear you. After combing the wowhead comments, we've decided to hit you all with a blast from the past for rogue. We've gotten rid of crackshot, and re-introduced deep insight. We also reduced the uptime of adrenaline rush to be around 20%. We've also reverted Killing Spree, and made it a choice node with death from above, either of which can be used for the Trickster Hero Tree. We've also reverted blade flurry to it's classic version, where it just hits 1 extra enemy. Don't worry though, we've changed it into a buff that hits 1 extra enemy for each time you activate it, lasting 15 seconds. The buff doesn't refresh itself though.

timid idol
#

SUB STILL HAS FLAGGELATION?

#

BRUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

willow portal
#

ye

timid idol
#

no fun

lone spear
#

its fine

#

u just press it 1 global before cds

willow portal
#

sub has like 7cds you wanna combo

timid idol
#

i want flagellation back as well

lone spear
#

flag > finisher > cds

#

dude i swear my yearning for s1 dragonflight outlaw

#

is hitting peak

willow portal
#

not having grappling hook sucks

lone spear
#

i think im gonna become like what classic andies are

#

in 2 xpacs

timid idol
#

i barely have enough keybinds for this spec

#

holy shit lol

quaint mauve
#

that’s why i lwk hated playing sin

#

shadow step is so much worse

burnt dragon
#

i think im just gonna stay outlaw for dimensius

#

my guild wont bench me anyway

#

we have shitters

hardy thicket
#

I miss shadowstep on Outlaw tbh

burnt dragon
#

i'll give them a chance to do more damage than me

hardy thicket
#

But wouldnt trade it for grapple no

#

Acro though despairge

lone spear
#

dimensius is the first time ive super missed acro

#

that hitbox is so cringe

hardy thicket
#

I miss it like every key every done

lone spear
#

guys quick question

#

the bugged opener for outlaw is macro > rtb > bte right?

#

im not crazy

#

surely thats it

timid idol
#

i have like

#

5.6 mil dps on 3 target dummies with these bad weapons with no enchants and probably bad stat prio

frank finch
#

so FB win st

#

wins 2t cleave

#

wins 3t cleave

#

wins 4 target cleave

#

i gues im going fb on mythic soul hunters

indigo token
#

im really pissed at the outlaw devs

#

if they even exist

#

its so damn buggy

willow portal
#

seriously tho what can i do to improve burn phase damage

lone spear
#

play sub

shy pecan
#

press buttons harder

willow portal
#

the heal nearly caught me

shy pecan
#

if you press bte with full force you will get a proc guaranteed

frank finch
indigo token
lone spear
#

guys

#

is the opener bug fixed

#

im only getting 3 of each coin now

#

i swear i didnt touch the macro

timid idol
#

im gonna faint

willow portal
lone spear
timid idol
#

there is no way ts is easier than our vanish rules

lone spear
#

it is tho

willow portal
#

the real struggle is when to keep cds for me on sub

lone spear
#

practice on dummy 5 times

#

u will memorize

willow portal
#

like there was something about keeping on 30s remaining or sth

timid idol
#

bro but

willow portal
#

really weird

timid idol
#

on dummy i dont need to save cooldowns

#

thats my biggest skill issue in this game

#

i play low big cd specs

cinder relic
#

Sub is very easy

timid idol
#

i dont know how to keep cooldowns

lone spear
#

if u learn where to use ur cooldowns

timid idol
#

i just fire away AR or wake of ashes the moment i have it

lone spear
#

and what to use in them

#

u are legit 95% of the way there

gaunt phoenix
indigo token
#

i like it more like uh

quaint mauve
indigo token
#

enh

cinder relic
#

wdym stacking cooldowns

lone spear
#

weird i coulda sworn it was the exact same

indigo token
quaint mauve
lone spear
#

could that alone legit break it?

cinder relic
indigo token
#

idk its not like crack to me
