People with no life… someone mass reported my Vancleef character name and I had to change it…..
Okay I think I fully fixed wowhead
the whole site
do we know why servers are shutting down
to flag popos vulpera for a name change
Some Outlaw rogu did a bit more of tank damage in raid
im sorry i didnt know it would take them this much work tho
its always been like that though
lmao
ye
i feel like server shutdowns r usually for pretty big gamebreaking potential bugs or issues
not always stuff we can see tho
this is why we have prepatch
it could just be something in the games data thats an issue
Someone probably solo’d a mythic raid lmao
Can I finally use wowhead mobile without having a headache?
hopefully fixing the blizzard lua errors 
I'm just a lad from louisiana, give me po boy
they are probably fixing the embellishment thing, make recraft work and enchanting legs work
FIX IT 
popo refusing to fix the errors 😡
and if i'm lucky enough they aren't fixing the old tiersets still being active
popo=POOP
go eat softshell crabs
I CANT
No chance they're fixing the fatebound bugs like on the beta right ?
Shrimp?
Bugfixes: Popo now correctly reads as Poop

elerk more like Jerk...gottem
real
why would you say such a thang
thx - so at 5cps you always SS before BTE to get to either 6 or 7 cps?
I can feel the conviction in the elipses
servers down? wtf
ya
thats maryland
He don't know exquisite Louisianian cuisine

Smh
popo boy sammich
red been n raice
well no
can i use wowhead mobile without getting "iphone has been corrupted" pop up new tab ads like its some sketchy porn site
Trickster is suggested everywhere
i'm being dumb
ForeverGuy? More like ForeverLied
No Guy said he fixed it but didnt
Le sigh
Howd the patch notes impact us?
is KIR having CDR normally or is it like prep?
lemme look 1 sec im setting up outlaw for keys so time 2 goof
kir has cdr
that's cool, honey. do your w****e now
le wanke?
oh yeah it moved sorry, it is affected by restless blades
ty
I literally pinged you
???? you pinged me after I told you
Cap
Ninjarobot? More like Cantstoplyingbot
Guys we all need to just get together and stop lying
no it's better if we keep arguing all day
It's exhausting winning all the time
how are we doin. we meta boys?
mobile os problem
I have a solution but you wont like it
thats a hard question
no clue yet, very subject to tuning
we are as far from meta as possible
outlaw has similar limitations to tww in terms of lack of cds/uptime/target cap/low utility/low raid buffs so we will be heavily dependent on tuning
other than forgetting to reroll cause bar enjoyer the recommended build makes all the sense
we also lost some of our strengths like tankiness
Cajun tyvm pets alligator
which is better cajun or creole
Eetin dat gatuh in duh loozyanna bah-yoo
depends on whatcha want
How big is the diff between the action button rotation and like optimal play?
good question
That's a trick question
much closer than before i would say
I saw that Whispyr put it on the assas guide so i just wondered
assa is built for one button rotation 
Balance too
Creole is soul food, Cajun is white swamp boi food
i think best thing i can do is playing One buttn no CDs then
cds are already crap-ish imo
other than blade rush, i dont see much fun going prep or KIR, or KS (god forbid)
Outlaw doesn't feel as gigga reactive so shouldn't be that far off what whispyr posted i'd guess
how are you guys tracking RTB / BF buff timers?
2 in summarily dispatched 1 fth for a laugh
Oh it is posted in the outlaw guide lol
kir is kinda nice but also stuff does fall over pretty quick
if it isnt 1, press kir
one button rotations primary penalty is a longer GCD
for a mostly gcd capped spec like outlaw your damage will get absolutely destroyed
no I meant through the UI is there an alternative to the tracked bars
the cooldown manager, or the addons to improve it, theres a couple people like
BetterCooldownManager or Centered Cooldown Manager
CoolCooldownManager seems like a missed opportunity
1btn , 5 tar dummy on dorn
I just use the Luxthos UI pack he made
Hello all ! Back at it for Outlaw. Is there any guide or list of what to do to setup new UI with all the addons out ?
what does bettercooldownmanager do that senseiresource bar doesnt?
i have them both but disabled bettercdmanager didnt see what was usefull
yeah, make sure to logout and go to character creation
best bet to import cdm string if u dont wanna set it up from scratch and go from there
Get sensei, which adds resource bars to cooldown manager
Get Unhalted unit frames if you want the SUF style unit frames again
get better cooldown manager if you want some big cooldown manager overhaul shit
Thank you guys !
np
SUF u say? big

what im using for pvp/pve rn u can swap and edit things how u like once u download sensei/bcdm
apw is much lower and the spec can be played just fine with blizzard default ui, imo, even if u wanna track unseen blade and bte buffs
mild tobasco levels of spicy
we lost around 25% apm so
Rogue has actually been one of the easiest specs to set up in default I’ve found
it's not a hard class
I didnt find that lol
Other than needing senseis for combo points
Outlaw still feels like it has a lot more things to track than most specs
i mean its still a lot
to track your combo points while all the cds that you need to practically spam
it asks for a lot of your attention for sure
and opportunity procs
but it's not as random or sketchy as it gets made out to be
Oh it does, but I could do it all in default cdm
oh 100% its a easyish spec
but it takes hella attention
running 1 pts Ace is so freaking awful
Yeah you just have to be willing to settle for less visual settings/control
That’s what annoys me the most about this whole ordeal
Default is SO CLOSE to being fine but like
close but so far
Some basic no brainer thing is just missing
That other addons have been doing for 20 years
this is where im at rn but Ill probably add more features to it as I decide to struggle with the addons some more
its just so much less enjoyable/harder to actually make the changes than it was before
Yeah that too
like why does the adr "cooldown" still overlay the adr buff. I didnt decidde that setting it just decided for me
wait
i so
need that setup
lmao
hopefully some of the weakaura devs make the jump
I would share it if I could but its so hadr to share your UI now
Yeah that’s tidy as f
or work on backporting some of their stuff to the current limits
sry if i missed you saying this already but what are you using for combo points here
theres literally a import 😭
Going to yoink this for inspiration ty
not if you use addons
ah yeah true
I use something called "edit mode expanded" which gives me the ability to move them
appreciate it MUCH thanks
I like the defualt CP visuals over the addon versions so i like to just move the blizzard one
I use that too but after I de-couple them from player frame and move them they stop showing up entirely 🙃
wait how many addons is in that if its so hard lmao
lol yeah theres some interference caused with certain other adddons
how do we like outlaw
it looks so vanilla
its like 5 total
yeah I like the "default" look
its like what I WOULD do if blizz made a good edit mode haha
tho id 100% put the raid frames over the vanilla frames
no addon, no more need to update stuff, no more memory consumption right, i hope so

yeah I might end up switching to a unit frame addon for that
thers so many lua errors rn
and some memory leakage
some of the lua errors are base blizzard too
game after a MAJOR API overhaul is 
Are you tracking anything with buff bars too or just using the icon swipe
For utility stuff I mean
Evasion etc
I’m trying to avoid using those bars where I can because minimalistic and default ui bars are atrocious
I dont like bars personally
my brain has trouble estimating what portion of hte duration I have left
the "clock" of a spiral is easier for me to comprehend at a glance
complete oposite for me
like I can look at the clock being 25% left and know that means I have 5s left on my 20s buff
yeah totally subjective
different spokes for different folks
I know a lot of people like bars for maintenance buffs
I only use them for resources
i wouldn't mind squares if they cooled in a linear direction
with a timer
like uh...top to bottom
but the radial thing and a number throws my brain off in the same way
ok my little experiment just ended: ascendance uptime on a key: 32%, now DRE doesnt exist anymore, and asc has 2min cd
and i'm being ignored in enha channel still, i want zorthas to start streaming or something
any1 running above 40% haste unbuffed?
too lazy to do more
im running this, i dont know about using loaded dice or sleight of hand, i prefer to keep 2 pts on ace and Fth
this man hates good rolls
based
true, im getting a lots of one of a kind
no discord like RH
is there any way to bound blizzard default ui CD management to a specific talent tree?
i had around 7.5minutes of uptime on ascendance on a 25 minutes dungeon
it felt fun to say the least
that would be nice
cuz yeah right now if I change talents it for sure messes with my UI a lot
try the "use shared action bars" maybe
just not gona track sprint/grapple/cloak/feint/etc? lol
#fuckit
well thats just for action bars not for like the cooldown manager positioning etc
rip float
tru
i gotta rearrange all the util cooldowns but at some point yeah
aint bars the same as CD manager? isnt they all btns you can place on ur screen?
All The Cooldowns Are Tracked In My Enormous Brain.
ATCATIMEB
i see, ofc
like if I spec into hidden opportunity it wouldnt just put ambush in my cooldown manager
" Pistol Shot (with Opportunity) if at 6 stacks." at 1-2 CP? or even if we are at 5 CP?
not playing totemic? its like crackshot
well 5cp is finish condition for dispatch as fatebound right
also how do you get to 5cp in the first place with 6 opp stacks
cuz to get htere you would have had to be at 1cp with 3stacks opp
which means you should have sent PS
not SS
so you made a mistake to get to 5cp with 6 opp
@frail veldt Im still on reading the theorycraft. so its not possible thnxz
ye np
first thing I ask myself when it seems like a condition isnt covered in the faq is "should I even get into this position unless I made a mistake"
thnxzzz
wdym
i know about the extend lavalash shit
but i love the gamba for ascendance with s2 tierset
The hot hand extending buff gameplay feels crackshot adjacent to me, getting resets on maelstrom etc
yea
but i found that weird interaction that gives ascendance when it shouldnt
and i love it
So you're just playing your own lil mini game lol
Well that's prob why ppl are ignoring you in the enh channel cause it's something most ppl can't do or don't care about
equilibrium
i hate toetmic but i havent played it since S1
Found it more fun than SB, SB with random tempest is pretty snoozd
yeah the tempest change is cringe imo
Wish there was a middle ground cause the pooling those was cringe too
bruh not taking sprint speed is crazy
tbh totemic now seems really fun
skill expression in which buttons you actually push vs stormbringer go brrr press whatever
Hi, how good or bad is outlaw in comparison to last patch? I feel like it doesn't do much damage or it's bugged idk
well it was extremely weak last patch(s4 tww)
tuning is all over the place right now so we have no idea where outlaw might land in S1 midnight
NICE
outlaw cooked?
your icons are squished bro
oh yea? wheres ur ui
I mean
i havent done much
just spent 10 min
doing some base thing
but im not satisfied
with the addons options rn
im fucking around a lot wiht my set up still
im thinking abnout making my own addon but its a lot of work
for something that idk
icons squished just like BF got squished 
"class pack maker"
should be an addon where you add cds/buffs inside groups
then you can put the groups anywehre
and do bars aswell
cdm being spec locked fucks so much
gotta remake the same config for class abilities 3 times
fuck
what u using to move around ur buffs
i have this for now
but i hate it and
i need something
i need more
hue hue hue
Ui for now
I kinda like watching my little BTE bullet fly at stuff
I wish i could make it fade in and out of combat
Umm so I just heard stuns don't immune Dr?
Oh it extends it
Or does the reset timer not reset when hitting the 1s?
I mean it's better than immune dring that's for sure
it just cant go under 1s
What UI addon is it?
yikes
@frail veldt #1277407121603956788
I see thx, and in the prepatch worse than before too right?
Not necessarily
We gained some slight improvements to how much we can handle downtime since we aren't trying to maintain 90%+ adr uptime but the bulk of our weaknesses as a spec are still remaining so it really just comes down to how we land on the meters tuning wise
There's nothing stopping blizzard from just tuning us to be very strong
There's no way to know yet tbh
Preach king
Who's our resident survival alt player?
Is Hunter looking as insane as they seem?
AOE intim stun, almost no defensive pruning, ranged without casting
And surv rotation seems still kinda interesting
Boomstick fucks
Budget Barrage
I like to think of it as Barrage without the stigma of it being Barrage
do we use KIR on opener regardless of the roll? or do we save until stage 2 + ?
how are you sknning the buffs?
You can use it at 2+
its trash
😠
i mean u should try it but they ruined it for me
its numerically very strong rn and on beta ig
and yes hunters got tankier. one of the few in the game that did, and they r already pretty tanky
survival especially
survival gets free 6% dr from its mastery and bm/marks always have dark ranger access (pending tuning ofc) which has the best defensive in a hero talent in the game
they had alot of their aoe stops pruned tho
they used to have like 4
now u have 2
and one is binding which is awk cause u cant knockback for it urself
I will most likely do that. Spec looks interesting even tho survival players are saying it’s got problems
Bro I come from sub
its cd window isnt very satisfying either
Barebones is my middle name
but again u should try it
some people rlly like it and it seems strong
it still has a very cool toolkit altho they pruned your major cd being a 40 yard dash so ur less mobile then ever
and harpoon is worse zzz
u also have way less ranged gcds now unfortunatly cause explosive and kill shot r gone
u still have eagle for prolonged downtimes but its pretty sad
how do I get my killing spree gun sounds back 🙁
just say "pew pew pew" out loud when you cast it
what one of yall using Arc UI? any1 know where the setting is to hide CDM buffs when they arent active
it should be like on cooldown and then you change the visibility alpha
set active aura to 0
Does outlaw feel any better in the beta

not really cuh
@zac i founbd somethin u might like
wtf
@vivid vessel
drag spells and make ur own row
make icons rectangle
aint you looking for this kind of stuff

wtf is that
gate keep im not playing rog in midnight
i wish i wasnt
i have to play tank
no one else can and that means we lose our only rog player
and nothing of value was lost
3.6% more healing to be done 
(Not really because not every bit of damage is done by boss, but you get my point)
quaziui btw
alot of cool stuff in there
is it more or less jank than arc
Can’t imagine more jank thank arc
arc is like the super temu version i feel like
But maybe less customization idk
Been using arc so far but interested in replacing if I can, feels…fragile?
But does some stuff I haven’t seen doable elsewhere so
Might try arc for the cdm cuz tweaksUI is* fucking up the tracked buffs
mana oils better than sharpening stones rn?
we relogging betwen bosses becuase of auto attack bug? 
ArcUI has broken for me a few times, like bars not staying where I put them after logging
not playing fatebound rn
yea it breaks as soon as i attack stuff
the bars are fine, but the icons don't save their position, and end up hidden under the energy bar
Yeah rubbish like that
I don’t want to have to worry about that so would probably take something more reliable with less functionality
how it looks with the option menu opened, and when I close the option menu, the tracked buffs become invisible if inactive, then move under the cp/energy
unhinged
gg blizz
nvm I fixed it
had to disable the addon, go back to regular tracked buff edit mode, and untick hide when inactive option
idk why it made the position tweak out, but it works
has same issue with blizz UI but then got arcUI and no issues
"Missing class buff" addon 🙃
has a function for rogue poisons
it's great isn't it
😮
Addons more addons and more addons
just install more addons after they wanted you to have less addons
what a time to be alive
this whole patch has big monkey paw curls vibes
at least I could get Opie to work-ish until an official update comes out
cd manager doesn't have instant poison as tracked buff
no worries theres an addon for it
and can click on it
and another addon added to collection
I have more addons than last week
and the game still runs light years better

takes less time to load the game initially tho that's for sure
Does that cdr manager addon let me set sound notifcations when a buff falls off?
tweaksUI doesn't as far as I can see
they should make it so i can set sound alerts for like 3 seconds left on rtb
wtf the option enabled itself again
do /reload and or go back to edit mode and exit it should go back to normal
I posted my fix earlier yeah, mix of disabling the addon and going in the default edit mode
did you find a solution to this? its driving me crazy too
Some more weird consumables with the stat squish
Whetstones from Dragonflight give more AP than current ones.
Elemental stones give a decent amount of Crit
Nothing new for rogues
3 expansions old off hands go hard
🗣️
dragonflight raid head enchant works again too
you can get it back from someone at the beginning of the raid, theres a 5 seconds quest.
I saw that, kinda scared to use it because it can't be removed, don't want to risk a ban for exploiting
def not a bannable thing 
mana oil gives 15 of crit and haste tho
which is like
a whole rings worth
does anybody have an addon to make tooltips show up at the cursor and not in the HUD display thing
I think its less egregious than the people wearing 632 ilvl items.. and those people wont get banned either
there's a neck enchant from previous expansions too, it does barely any damage but more than 0 and its a free enchant slot
whats dam looking like in keys for yall
👀
Shut 8up
Shut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8upShut 8up
No way the one day I sit down to fix everything
it gets refixed
AHHHHHHH
\

Unfixed?
merithra doesn't show up any quest 
dont worry
Because mint is not as good as i thought it was
a fixed fatebound should still lose in prepatch
could of swore i read a not so great mint still puts fb ahead
that's for beta
I’m playin it. Shits fun
Good news
Idk man
Nerfed KS lowkey blows
Well its prepatch so ig I'm just bitching just to bitch
Give me back the ST global locked KS pls
I’d love to take risks again in keys 😂
What if they did that and turned the range to like 30 yards cause the animations is guns
@mighty pivot found my new uhuh
Just make it ST 30 yard range 😂
fatebound works on live now?

nah auto attacks are still borked on live
weird, they changed prepatch spell data a bit, but it seems incomplete
holy
huge
One step forward two steps back
Fr
if you played your rogue in tww s3 you'd know that already buddy. Now we have other things to cry about. Like deft manoeuvers and our garbaccio capstones 
At least the capstones are even
HOW
Unfortunately they're also even with talents inside the tree
Hella monkey paw move ngl
they aren't even at all what are you talking about
Aren't they like a few % between each other?
Except HO
KIR and prep are about even
HO sucks
fast action is a meme
KS is only played because trickster requires it
Imma say it
Don’t say it
Even if KS were good it's not capstone material

Wasn’t capstone material a single season ago so not that hot a take tbh
yeah KS was hitting 40% harder, it was 4 rows or so higher, and people still hated it
naturally, the way to resolve that is to nerf it and make it even more expensive to grab
should DFA make a return to the skill tree?
If it actually hit hard yeah
you after undercooking outlaw as outlaw dev
True
Bring back outlaw shadow step for this
DB should be back
Okay but mine is softer
I need to get a cat.
show cat
my cat is goated
bewtter thamn yours!
its a non used door i promise
DB will only return with some bs negative effect attached to it. Like finishers costing 150% extra energy during its duration
Side eye queen
we posting cats? 
your cat looks mad being photographed awang
yeah, I need inspiration to get a cat
I accidentally had the flash on and blinded mine 😭
Tell me about it
we're posting cats or catboys
Is that a cow
pet the cat's belly
no?
Forbidden
can somebody actually explain why a single person even mentions DFA anymore
Like even ironically, its like one of the worst abilities ever made
right up there with cannonball barrage?
It's before my time
CBB was just like bad
DFA was like KS loss of mobility meets coup charge
Like idk how a single soul wants it
It also looked fucking stupid!!
Cows
sorry you hate everything, guy
Yeah thats all I'm getting Ninja
kitty
Basically cool=bad
YOU LOOK STUPID

ill get a better one rq

Cat (2)
Is that a rabbit or a cat dressed up for Halloween
Ninja
Got the whole crew
I just know ur house is never quiet
I already hear it
they know when we go to the dog park, they just know
Void just chillin in his corner lol
void is getting old, he's 13 
my previous cat. Had to put her down 2 years ago 

nice scarf
u guys dont get my face sorry!
beard reveal
The one I have is obsessed with trying to lay on my shoulders when I’m gaming. But he moves around so much it’s annoying 😭
solo when are we getting new spec roles
Fatebound lucky coin would be cool
Oh
Prep role icon? Hmmmm
I'm cool with what I got
it suits you
you got poop popo
That'd be funny
Oh the !rtb command needs to be edited
!wa
Class packs:
Anyone have issues importing Foreverguys layout
Idk if that's been brought up uet
!prekey
Pre-key fuckery
RTB TWICE some time before entering dungeon to get 4 Supercharger stacks. These stacks don't have a duration.- Just before key placement use
AR into
KS to get
Loaded Dice and 2 free Unseen Blade procs.
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 or recast
AR as you will lose the CPs and Supercharger stacks when the bubble ends. - After the bubble drops use
RTB again (now back at 4 stacks of Supercharger). - Before entering the first pack
BF into
Stealth. - Open onto the pack with
AR into
BtE.
i can paste it but i cant get the cursor to go int othe name to hit save
Well hop to it greenie

🪙
!macro
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.
!commonmistakes
Common errors for Outlaw -> see this answer in the FAQ.
we do live in the past
If we wait another 10ish years it'll all be relevant again
Seeing as we are on classic part 3 I’d say that’s a true statement
Lol true
Ready for SL classic in 10 years
Dude
more like 3 years
What happened to that horror mode they teased
thats midnight
that's midnight
Yeah but
just officially subscribed to shindigg's channel
I want to know more :(
really like what he's about ngl
Anyone?
No he's a current outlaw defender!
Yeah it's borked
blast
we dont use ambush in opener and just blade rush and use bte in opener? dont we want combo points before using bte?
Adrenaline rush gives full cp
ty
such weird changes, might be a dh main until audacity/ho become meta
HO ded
Extremely well hidden opportunity (you’ll literally never find it)
CHOCO
lmao
I'm glad someone else said it
popo = poop
tbh i also thought he was a twink
3 people...
Are we still playing with no ambush in the action bar? Or is it ok to ambush as opener?
I never understood this
they specifically wanted to remove stealth/vanish from dps so I wouldn't expect vanish to come back anytime soon
more likely we just get the remaining stealth/vanish stuff removed
I'm gonna open with cheapshot like a real rogue
And as finisher, coup the grace vs BtE wich one is priority? Considering i already have bte buff
tbf ambush is kinda outlawy, it's fine. But HO 😒
im not very twinky
Real rogues dont open, they stay hidden and wait for the boss to be 0.1% hp to steal the kill
real pirates never take another persons property
They dont
they kill the person before taking it
so it's not nobody when they grab it

real pirates get a writ of privateering from the crown and commit acts of piracy against the spanish
always the spanish
Might be my favorite format ngl
kiss your self
We need to make a tier list of outlaw twinks
please
now read the first 3 letters
I think Ninjarobot is a real certified femboy twink so he'd be a good judge
@mighty pivot how accurate is this?
bte
you can have multiple bte buffs, they overlap
What's the highest sims have gotten?
2
like 18
18 is like 1 in 40,000 pulls kind of luck or smth
the average stack on beta at a given moment is 3.4 or so
yo does anybody have an addon that makes tooltips display at the cursor?
what was the best rogue m+ spec atm?
in prepatch? it shouldnt matter it's all temporary and wacky tuning
tiptac
Unholy dk
Got nerfed. Still good tho
ok i just looked it up, wow rogues have been absolute ass lmao, did midnight changes at least make any of rogue specs more fun?
Whats good boys?
Do olds or youngs like rogue specs more
As of 3 days ago, olds
Solo was there when the ancient texts were written
Sololdge
Is the new outlaw still fun without crackshot? My old ass had a blast with that and keeping AR up
even with its problems(old and new) it's still fun
certainly more fun than the other 2 specs rn
Not a high bar tbh
This filler rotation is what got me into outlaw when legion dropped
So I understand vanish offensively is gone so that’s cool no? Is bte still fun and filled with happiness?
The biggest deal to me is a lot of the appeal to outlaw is the highpaced quick decision making gameplay. But With energy issues, streamlined abilities it does fall very flat now
I really just got into the pirate theme with the pistols and stuff lol
oo energy issues doesn’t sound like fun
you unfortunately need a certain amount of haste to fix it
which means early game at max level or start of expansions will be particularly bad
im floating like 31% with haste flask, and it doesnt feel great
vanish/stealth no longer doing anything offensive is definitely not entirely good
we lost damage agency(no more holding crack for stuff) and lost a lot of open world and delve prowess with restealths no longer really doing anything at all
for however much open world matters to you
the only thing I like about it is now I can choose when to drop aggro a little more freely
and then of course there are fewer things to track and fewer things to mess up so it's a bit easier to manage
and vanish won't occasionally cause players to accidentally drop combat by mistake when they are too slow on it
again depends who u ask
It's not like we're losing stealth entirely so you'll still be able to skip 99% of delves
And then trickster with the tricks talent
but we are losing the ability to open on any pack and actually have damage for it
I guess
like it'll probably still be fine
Frankly this could've been avoided had CS become it's own button
but resets and uhuh made delves very smooth
uhuh also could have just stuck around with subterfuge getting deleted instead
like when it comes to solo content the vanish/stealth damage loss I think will hurt more there than anywhere else
since everywhere else stuff kind of gets tuned around, but solo content tends to just be whatever it is
uhuh shouldve got reworked to work without stealth
wait does that mean we have to manually reapply Blade Flurry manually all the time now?
yes
oh wowwwww that’s beyond gross
Was it the reset or perma tricks on brann?
I mean they both helped and did entirely different things
stealth resets made the delve fast
tricks just made it easier to not die
U were at ur peak damage when u were in crackshot
There r times u do as much as crackshot
6 buff proccing
Or kspree
But crackshot meant ur opener was always strong
Even with meh rng
You could go entire delves in just crackshot windows
It was so nice
Ugh we lost so much of our toolkit for solo content
Very depressing considering they are experimenting with tough open world stuff
Especially since law can't burst down elites or high hp rares
really dont understand why people despise the stealth gameplay so much
We relied so hard on chaining evasion with cdr
other than it being occassionally buggy
Or live long enough to kill one
occasionally
Any big rare is commiting to a 2m fight
U survived it by rotating through stuff
Sub killed it in 1 cd set
Xd
W.e
The toe to toe rogue is the most squishy guy
Makes sense
Theres a couple reasons people generally give
Least we don't stealth anymore 
I don't mind vanish but I'm a day 1 subt hater
would you like it more if instead of vanish it worked the exact same but it was called Pirate Stance
They r cowards for not just removing our stealth attack benifit existing instead of taking vanish off rb
It's w.e crackshot is gone
No reason to think about it they rnt bringing it back
I just said I don't mind vanish
Yeah this was dumb
it doesn't fit the theme of outlaw (whatever that means)
It resets combat against dangerous enemies in solo content (usually, but not always a skill/planning issue)
outlaw shouldn't be about burst windows (crackshot isn't really burst when it has 40% uptime)
Outlaw isn't about stealth and shouldn't use vanish (outlaw has used vanish rotationally for nearly all of the time it has existed since legion)
take your pick
Arguably my least favorite change
It was very punishing
So some people hated it for how uptime reliant it made us
And some people secretly hated it cuz it emphasized their mistakes
Also yeah some people hated it for theme too
i think there are def ways to make it less punishing of downtime than just outright removing it. but i guess its kinda late for that
Theres a lot of reasons to dislike it
Ideally vanish/subt if for CD specs imo
Thematic reasons, actual gameplay, how shit it was in solo play (yes you can play around it but still thats a tech barrier that most people wont even bother to learn, the fact that it feels just like a budget shadow dance where the spec is just about damage windows rather than what it is rn, just "doing the rotation properly" which is something I prefer
was the spec ever about damage windows?
The idea of static windows in a cdr spec doesn't make sense to me personally
Not until df
That I can think of off the top of my head
outlaw with crackshot ate elites and rares up
definitely need a "Define damage windows" on that one
idk if i really think stealth can count as a shadowdance-lite when subterfuge is something you have up almost more often than not
rolling for a good buff to then deal more damage is a kidn of damage window
i think i tanked a world boss while it was relevant content for like 2 minutes straight onces
just chaining healing/evasion every 40s
we also had vanish for damage in legion that was actually stronger than crackshot
Just like, u optimize around the vanish windows idk
theres just a certain feeling to it
i liked having vanish charges way more than when we had shadow dance
but as a crackshot lover, i get both arguments
its a window u can guarentee damage in idk
it played like a cd window
i understand that
it wasnt one tho, there was quite a few other points in the rotation u were doing just as much damage as bte popping off
kspree alone hit that hard
6 buff + proccing also matched it
it was nice having damage agency for once 
prep is so pathetic compared
I wish I were good at explaining things
really what it was more of a spike of then anything was cdr, it was kinda wild for RB
basically everything except the threat of fucking up and dropping combat is a super opinion based reason at the end of the day anyway
Than
it's not like there's a "correct" reason
anyway its w/e its like vers going away
its probably better for the game to design us not around stealth. especially if blizzard wasnt willing to fix the serious pain points because reseting shit unless ur playing pixel perfect on ur casual content is exhausting and annoying
but it was strong af in that content which is why its annoying to lose
same with losing all our vers
They also reduced the usefulness of vanish for the other specs as well
The issue I felt against it wasn't so much like
Vanish in legion was "Just damage"
UHUH was "the rotation" yk
I see the distinction there
I was just answering if outlaw has ever been about damage windows before
you could also count cov skills and dreadblades probably
I was thinking that
We did have shadow dance in the past
I hope thay fix aoe on lowlvl content it's so bad
it wasnt really a damage window until crackshot thoi
speaking of shadowlands i want my kyrian steward back
before that we used it like a proc recovery tool
i understand what he means anyway crackshot was very distinct
Well it felt significant cuz of cto proc chance
you had the generic rotation, and then the crackshot window was so different feelwise
well sure pvp is always different
depends how pednatic u want to be about stuff like flag dreadblades
I liked having a damage window. I would have loved if crackshot became just an active or something and we threw out the stealth shit
coulda been a choice with ace but they wanted to make it a 2 pointer and it was too much work
they were gunna remove stealth damage window regardless i think so theyd need to make crackshot window work off something else
Nerfed ace AND made it a 2 pointer. What a fall off.
What do sims look like not taking ace at all?
1pt is still optimal
doesn't look like ace is even that strong on a prepatch profile
Afaik
there might be some room to push it out
In midnight*
My bad
Idk
I don't have a midnight profile handy
Do people genuinely hate 1 ace
with apex enhancing both dispatch and bte idk if it even moves that much in value
the fun of ace is setting combo points back to full to me
it's like blackrock foundry tier(I know it was 1000 years ago)
which has always sat in my memory as my favorite outlaw/combat tierset ever
this kind of halfway sort of refund just doesn't hit the same
the gameplay of ace is when your gun procs you get to double finisher
anything less then that and the gameplay is gone for me
its just normalizing ur rotation even more
now ur guarenteed to 1 builder spender instead of maybe 2 builder

if anything it makes the rotation more boring
1 pt is so ass
i get that its smooth
its not gameplay for me tho
i want to react to procs, im playing outlaw
how do we have 1 proc left
can't even scour our midnight channel for a midnight profile because it is gone
Yeah if proccing ace still means using a builder after then ace is just ruthlessness
id even be fine with them making it so its like 1 point is just smoothing the rotation 2 points is making it a true proc u react to, but they didnt accomplish that because of how little it refunds, and they pathed it so its basically always optimal to take the least gameplay option??
Which is an objectively worse talent
its just so cringe if they did it on purpose
How much worse is 2pt ace?
a few % i believe
the thing is it barely matters
even if u take 2 ace u still need to build after
u dont finish at 5
🙂
there is no way to recover old ace
double coup is gone right?
ur never reacting to this proc, you are guarenteed to always bte > builder
you know it ahead of time
you dont even need a sound trigger anymore
gravedigger overlapping with ace was probably a mistake
🥱 ok i sleep gn
if they give us full ace then it's just better than our apex talent
Yeaaaah
