How does that even make sense hahah

pastel sierra
#

Auto attacks are like 40% of your dmg

#

Earlier SnD means more auto attacks

#

Or some shit like that

keen belfry
#

Well can’t you just AR dispatch im so confuse d

pastel sierra
#

You can, i assume on ST the difference is next to nothing

gaunt phoenix
#

i lied

#

you know what i did

keen belfry
#

Ty

gaunt phoenix
#

the current rules i had AR RTB used at pull-1 seconds

#

instead of pull-0

#

so it wasted a second for no reason

keen belfry
#

Is this both sims

#

I was worried about AR combat time with the snd piss opener

wintry solar
#

Now awang can get off the toilet

keen belfry
#

It’s comfy

wintry solar
#

You get booty bumps

#

I forget what they're called

#

Hemorrhoids

keen belfry
#

Can’t believe ur the red Becky

#

Neck

#

And u thought I was the twink

wintry solar
#

Multiple people btw lol

#

I thought it was just me

keen belfry
#

kinda sick i give twink vibes

#

who want me?

wintry solar
#

Ninja

gaunt phoenix
#

it does still seem like (prepull) AR SND RTB > open with BF BR is better than (prepull) AR RTB > open with single target dispatch BF BR

keen belfry
#

interesting

#

whats the diff

keen belfry
#

cool cool

gaunt phoenix
#

so funny how this matters at all

#

i'm going to make ST and AOE prepull the same

keen belfry
#

is there a way u can do the exact same sim, but assumme the rogue has snd from prepull stuff

gaunt phoenix
#

not going to take questions about that for the remainder of the tier

keen belfry
#

im just curious if its the cdr, or the snd first global, or both

gaunt phoenix
#

if you have snd already, what do you need to know?

#

it's not like you're going to press snd again

pastel sierra
#

^

#

Cancelaura macro for SnD for a .2% gain

#

If it even is one

gaunt phoenix
#

i think i get what you're asking wang

keen belfry
#

yeah

#

you have snd

#

first global, with snd opeenr

gaunt phoenix
#

but im not sure i can forcibly create SND active from nothing

keen belfry
#

its basically just testing is having snd on opener the reason for the gain

#

because if the gain is still there when u have snd already, the gain is the cdr

#

etcetc

gaunt phoenix
#

i suspect the gain is simply being able to BF BR one global "sooner"

keen belfry
#

is it just snd diff then

#

so like in a key u can do wahtever opener u want then

pastel sierra
#

Unless you managed to drop all buffs yeah

keen belfry
#

ok ikeep doing my m+ opener then

#

but sounds like our ST is changing?

gaunt phoenix
#

basically AR SND is good enough single target that i dont want to make a point in differentiating them

keen belfry
#

makes sense

#

are u in a one more sim for awang mood

#

i posted this SS yesterday

#

this happens a lot

#

vibes tells me to press dispatch here

gaunt phoenix
#

i love when you post a screenshot and i should discern exactly what you're thinking

keen belfry
#

well at 5+ cp

keen belfry
#

youve been learning

#

so basically

#

i think a BTE WITH APEX

#

when ar is a finsiher away

#

is bad

#

cuz reset

gaunt phoenix
#

it's fine to skip it

#

it wont move sim so i dont care

keen belfry
#

its probs tiny change if any

#

ok vibes rule added

#

i just like double BTE opener is AR windows

hazy temple
#

Sorry, can anyone care to tell me what SND is?

gaunt phoenix
hazy temple
#

ah

#

thank you!

keen belfry
#

i also am curious about KIR again if we play wangbuild and use LD

#

KIR 3/4 is so good and u can get more lucky and not have 1 buffs

#

aka u dont have to kir 2 buff

gaunt phoenix
#

this snd thing is also worth at 2 target

#

basically

#

if you have to use blade flurry

#

then it is better to AR RTB SND prepull

#

and blade flurry immediately on pull

#

and you dont already have snd of course

#

the things we invent to be 3rd place dmg

keen belfry
#

outlaw rogues

#

i think our tuning is going to be so ass this tier

hazy temple
#

3rd place of the rogue specs right? :^)

keen belfry
#

but i have hope that more randoms will play outlaw cuz easier to approach and they will drag its wcl chart even lower

gaunt phoenix
#

it's so funny the last raid testing was like wow okay, favorable tuning

unkempt dew
#

So it’s time to put SnD back oh my action bar

keen belfry
#

thats what made me laugh TWW S3, only gamers were palying it for the most part and the spec was the worst spec in the game

gaunt phoenix
#

and then it was a mistake

vivid vessel
#

btw

keen belfry
#

btw

vivid vessel
#

you guys know how much 15% is

#

solo

#

do you realize how much it is or

#

cause i didnt really think about it much

keen belfry
#

its -15% and -10% AA dmg right?

unkempt dew
#

15% of nothing is still nothing?

vivid vessel
#

till ichecked wcl last time

#

no as in

#

15% is that much

gaunt phoenix
#

ye

vivid vessel
#

its like

#

you can be the best spec in the game before tuning

#

after tuning you are the worse spec in the game by like 10%

#

so

#

i sure hope we were really really really good before that nerf

#

:D

wintry solar
#

That's fine though because "you can just change specs"

vivid vessel
#

ye as every season

#

never play outlaw

wintry solar
vivid vessel
#

cuase its always the wrose spec in the game

#

i guess thats fine ye

#

can just change spec

keen belfry
#

i might apply to blizz

#

i can get use insider info

unkempt dew
#

Aah we suck again?

keen belfry
#

i will go to the rogue dev quarter of building

keen belfry
#

dw

unkempt dew
#

Damn

#

Why?

#

Does Blizzard hate outlaw that much?

keen belfry
#

well if u think about it

#

we are pirates

wintry solar
keen belfry
#

pirates like open seas, water

#

blizzard is frozen tundra

wintry solar
#

So fire mage should always be bad

keen belfry
unkempt dew
keen belfry
#

but now its just a spec that u can tune

#

BF is the only weird part

wintry solar
#

Lol

keen belfry
#

granted big weird part

unkempt dew
keen belfry
#

specs were your aoe is your ST are like kinda impossible to tune

#

passive cleave from ST buttons leads to disaster tuning sometimes

Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:

/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
pastel sierra
#

And its like on sub where its just storm > BP > storm > BP

keen belfry
#

which was my cope when i saw the bf nerfs

pastel sierra
#

Nah its still BF but it only makes auto attacks cleave

vapid sundial
#

:^)

#

Let me spend with BR

pastel sierra
#

Idk i like not having 2 extra buttons for AoE that do nothing but stale builder/spender loops

nova marsh
#

if you wanna play sub just play sub

pastel sierra
#

Theyd have to cook it a bit more

vapid sundial
#

what is this nonsense

#

Historically, it was you either have KS or BR

#

I would much rather have BR and have it be a spender

nova marsh
#

its a movement ability iykyk

vapid sundial
#

Sure man

#

It def wasnt a major energy regen in DF

nova marsh
#

its always been that

#

also your only uncapped ability fwiw

vapid sundial
#

ye

keen belfry
#

solos idea is to just make trickstert have KS blast in aoe and do ethical dmg

vapid sundial
#

why is why i can say id like it to be a finisher

#

shrug

#

make KS prio

#

😛

past falcon
keen belfry
pastel sierra
#

Yeah but also put it into the trickster tree

#

Like priest has with their enabling spells

gaunt phoenix
#

trickster talent makes it big boom

#

boomboom

keen belfry
#

id be okay with dropping prep for KS

#

IF

#

KS was boom boom

pastel sierra
#

Why keep it a capstone if it does no dmg unless you play trickster

keen belfry
#

but it needs to be boom boom

#

becuz

#

i hope u know theres actually no where in our tree we can give up points

#

its kinda cooked

#

maybe u could take it instead of LD

#

i mean

#

sleight

pastel sierra
#

Yeah its annoying

#

you have like 2 points to freely spend

#

if even

pastel sierra
#

no but it should

frail veldt
#

oh

#

trickster as a hero tree is kinda weird now that they changed how flawless form works

#

its almost as passive of a tree as fatebound now haha

mighty pivot
#

stick a damage boost and make it reliably hit your target in one of the two KS trickster nodes, and it won't feel so popo

#

maybe something to consider for TLT Okay

gaunt phoenix
#

hit all targets

#

full aoe

#

everything

#

boom boom

#

now ks is awesome

hardy vault
#

just let me enjoy fatebound for now

#

i am very happy with not pressing ks

mighty pivot
# gaunt phoenix full aoe

I don't see it being full aoe. Not because it would be broken but because they seem to go with the weirdest ideas when it comes to KS

hardy vault
#

actually playing fb in prepatch rn and doing better with it than with trickster because of less buttons

Haven't played since November - any reason to log back in right now or should I just keep waiting until Midnight?

gaunt phoenix
#

make your UI

#

get used to your UI

violet ferry
#

Good call

gaunt phoenix
#

this patch should have a little better details and cdm

#

Can add alerts to cdm buffs

the details is still dog ass though

# copper radish Step one delete weak auras

I'm just going to assume I should delete every addon, flop around struggling for a few minutes while I get my bearings, then figure out what I "need" from there.
That a decent plan?

copper radish
#

Should work. Some good addons out there still doesn’t feel like we lost much

#

Cooldown manager addons are pretty useful

gaunt phoenix
#

in cdm, your buffs should probably be rtb bf adr ps loaded_dice snd

#

(and cloak/evasion/feint)

pastel sierra
#

SnD tracked?

copper radish
gaunt phoenix
#

it can influence decisions

upper hawk
#

does knowing i have adranaline rush active change my decisions? i'm not tracking that right now

gaunt phoenix
#

not technically, but i like to know when my GCD is sped up

upper hawk
#

gotcha. i'm tracking bf opportunity and loaded dice only right now as icons. rtb is under htem as a bar because i find it easier to grok the text of which buff it is on the bar

gaunt phoenix
#

yeah i use a few as bars

vivid vessel
#

i like that instead of showing snd when its not up

#

like i could before

#

i have to show it all the time now

#

:D

#

or maybe not

#

you could in theory create something ..

#

i guess ..

#

snd addon ..

#

why is everything basically possible

#

just super annoying

#

like i can still do a fth tracker if i want with sounds etc

#

but i have to code it arround cp gain

#

i can have a snd tracker that only shows when its down but i have to recode the entire snd logic based on finishers

#

why cant it just be simple

#

this game kinda ruined no ?

gaunt phoenix
#

hm they broke prepatch class tree

#

the gate is restricted again

#

cant get both tea and cbk

#

this game kinda ruined no ?

Remove add-ons honestly

#

So annoying I need to dl all this shit to make my game not look like popo

#

I think they should consider binning add-ons and just making their own tbh

#

Any thinkers?

mighty pivot
#

I think it's a competitive advantage to be able to parse information the game fails to communicate properly

#

my solution: shut down the game Okay

#

if nobody can play, nobody has an advantage

glass mortar
#

Just force every1 to use 1 button assist

That's the only key that can be bound

mighty pivot

ok but you have to use your forehead to press it

If it wasn't the intended theoretical maximum dps why did blizzard even code it?

#

They make the game hello? Are we stupid?

do we play a new build on live with the tuning?

12.0.1 Patch updates

  1. This update is just merging the recent beta changes into pre-patch.

  2. They fixed the class tree at level 80, there is now a 23-point gate to get the last set of talents. So, while coldblood Cold-Blooded Killer is fixed, we won't use it. thistle_tea Thistle Tea is still recommended.

  3. After some more build scrutiny it seems we can now drop ps Find an Opening (10% Opportunity chance) and therefore also drop 1 or more points in ss Heavy Hitter to actually take other options/our capstones in AoE specifically.

trickster Pre-patch Trickster AoE | trickster Beta Trickster AoE

fatebound Pre-patch Fatebound AoE | fatebound Beta Fatebound AoE

For both builds, loaded_dice Sleight of Hand vs 1 point in ss Heavy Hitter is expected to be close. It's still uncertain what Sleight is really doing until we scrape a bunch of logs so you can ignore it if you don't believe in the gamba. Or take it for data gathering science.

Removing ps Find an Opening like this is about a 1-3% gain for both builds in AoE. However you do lose consistency from pull to pull, it's hard to judge how much this matters but if you feel like you are low-rolling on energy more then I think it's fair to go back if you prefer it.

Why don't these builds use talent_preparation Preparation? -- you can, it's close/about the same. fatebound Fatebound can remove 1 dispatch Summarily Dispatched for it. Your call if it's worth tracking/thinking about it.

Solo, why are builds changing again? -- The tuning does kinda make talents_menacingrush Menacing Rush too good to pass up but otherwise in all likelihood I just missed the possibility of removing ps Find an Opening. Blame @keen belfry

What about single target? -- Mostly a wash. trickster Trickster can find the smallest gain by moving ps Find an Opening into talent_preparation Prep, but it's so minimal and maybe not worth the RNG trade-off unless the encounter favors Prep.

More opener shit -- It was found if you are in AoE and start with nothing, it is better to adr AR + snd SnD + rtb RtB right before the pull and open with Blade Flurry, as opposed to skipping SnD and opening with Dispatch. This doesn't really happen in keys unless you die, as you get snd SnD from the pre-key setup anyway.

Overall Pre-patch still favorstrickster Trickster, and beta still favors fatebound Fatebound by a little bit.

holy we be dropping 10% fth chance now waht a banger

keen belfry
#

and sleight gamba is fun

#

its sleightly fun 🙂

#

haha get it

#

i wonder if we will have prep dungeons, like prep felt very good on algaethar for first pull, dmg amp boss, etc

gaunt phoenix
#

yeah, I can see it being worth more than expected with at least some coordination.

keen belfry
#

and i think on demand dmg has more value than sim would tell u

#

ofc

fathom bramble
#

potentially in any key that has a more important/lust pull at the very start

#

just being able to contribute more on a pull that occasionally makes or breaks the key can be enough

keen belfry
#

if its a long dmg amp, otulaw actually good

#

unlike a tindral 10 second amp

cinder haven
#

None of the other capstones that can compete with summarily dispatched?

#

uynless they make ks boom boom

#

cinder haven
#

Embrace the gamba

fathom bramble
#

I wonder what % KS needs to go up for it to be good

#

it's like release bonespike levels of bad

#

which took a 166% buff iirc to just become decent

cinder haven
#

Idk why they giganerfed ks in the first place

fathom bramble
#

my theory is that they were looking at all classes to reduce burst across the board and merged/removed/nerfed a ton of cds

gaunt phoenix
#

i would hope that fatebound still doesnt take it and something in the trickster tree itself buffs it

fathom bramble
#

and just KS got caught in the crossfire

cinder haven
#

Ans then make it capstone?

fathom bramble
#

yeah idk

#

that's as far as my idea goes

cinder haven
#

Probably two different people

copper radish
#

Can we get old gun sounds on BTE lol

fathom bramble
#

having us be in a state where all our capstones are varying degrees of bad seems out of place though

#

so I expect something to change

#

maybe in a .5 patch

cinder haven
#

Is kir really that bad tho?

fathom bramble
#

I mean it's '

#

it's bad for a talent

#

but just barely good enough to still take

gaunt phoenix
#

It's like a 3% talent

#

same with prep

#

in theory

cinder haven
#

Not much compared to our old capstones

fathom bramble
#

our old capstones were 5-20%

gaunt phoenix
#

and then HO is terrible, KS is KS, and Fast Action is 0.7%

fathom bramble
#

though it's worth noting slightly that crackshot was only 20% thanks to how much other talents boosted it

#

most of the value of even having ace was from crackshot

cinder haven
#

How can fast action only be 0.7?

keen belfry
#

zero in

fathom bramble
#

11% lower bte CD is just not that good

gaunt phoenix
#

i believe it's cause you lose value on Zero In

cinder haven
#

Better to build up ah

fathom bramble
#

definitely a lot of people expected it to be better though

gaunt phoenix
#

yeah, it's interesting

#

i'm sure it's working correctly

#

just doesnt seem to do a whole lot

cinder haven
#

Zero in is very weird

keen belfry
#

it is

fathom bramble
#

you get approximately the expected amount of extra BTE casts so

keen belfry
#

i also think BTE needs high crit baked into it

fathom bramble
#

would be cool to see it buffed to like 10 seconds and 2 charges

#

and just keep adding seconds until it's a 5% talent

gaunt phoenix
#

being able to hold BtE for high zero in would be cool maybe

fathom bramble
#

Cast between the eyes if you are near 2 charges, at 15 or more zero in, or if AR is currently active

fathom bramble
#

now that's a rotation

gaunt phoenix
#

Gain 10 stacks of Zero In when the cooldown of Between the Eyes is reset through Ace Up Your Sleeve or Gravedigger.

cinder haven
#

Thats a nice tier set

keen belfry
#

BTE is weird with zero in + dispatched cuase u want to maximize zero in stacks, but cast on CD for bte buff

fathom bramble
#

When ace triggers BTE gains the benefit of any active Zero In stacks without consuming them

mighty pivot
#

I dunno why they thought Fast Action is worthy of being a capstone tbh

gaunt phoenix
#

meh, I get it. it sounds good in theory

keen belfry
cinder haven
#

It would have been in other circumstances probably

mighty pivot
#

even if numerically it was better, it still feels a bit on the boring side

gaunt phoenix
#

ye sure

fathom bramble
#

idk why it's not more stuff

#

it's a capstone

keen belfry
#

would be giga talent if BTE was static CD but had 100% ace proc chance reducing with each proc, thoughts???

cinder haven
#

Sounds fun

mighty pivot
#

even prep has more flair than fast action

cinder haven
#

Make zero in last for the whole chain too

keen belfry
#

like every 20 second bte dmg window

fathom bramble
#

like I would expect a capstone to look more like this

keen belfry
#

enough crit to get 20 stacks of zero in, keep zero in stacks until BTE goes on CD, blast

fathom bramble
#

this does 4 different things

#

and has a lot of reduced cooldown for the base CD of the spell

#

instead of a slight amount

gaunt phoenix
#

that is a lot

mighty pivot
#

making Zero In stay if you get a bte reset would be cool but then we are treading into too much rng reliance territory maybe

keen belfry
keen belfry
#

and ace is unrelated to gravedigger, so u can have back to bvack 100s

cinder haven
#

Our crit scaling stuff in general is super weird

#

Its synergy and antisynergy at the same time somehow

fathom bramble
#

yeah crit didn't even end up as good as I was expecting

#

like we still try and stack it after haste cap(for now)

#

but it's not really that far ahead of vers

mighty pivot
cinder haven
#

Maybe if you can somehow avoid taking cold blood and zero in and instead stack crit and take fast action

fathom bramble
#

almost all of our crit synergies just give more crit chance from crit chance

#

which doesn't really stack up as well as like crit chance giving resources or simply having critical strike damage

keen belfry
#

whats the term

#

crit chance over 100 turns into dmg

#

grievous?

fathom bramble
#

overcapped crit chance?

bright plaza
#

Is this damage reduction to outlaw live or is that old notes for us?

cinder haven
#

Poe style

keen belfry
#

mara had it in fellowhsip, she had 100% crit chance thing but her extra crit left over was a flat dmg increase to it, so it would crit for like 130% etc

mighty pivot
gaunt phoenix
mighty pivot
#

only zero in is significant basically

cinder haven
#

Zero in and cold blood

#

Conditional crit chance that prevents us from stacking crit sort of

mighty pivot
#

trickster can benefit from 20% finisher crit chance with CB talented which is still just equal to having the old bte buff

fathom bramble
#

we do still have more base crit than normal from talents and being an agi class

#

and all our crit scaling comes in the form of just making crit give crit

glass mortar
#

It's really not hard to make scaling synergies with stats either

#

Which Is why it's confusing

#

Ours all feels either underdesigned or overdesigned and i can't tell which it is

cinder haven
#

It is what it is for now though

#

Doubt anything will change before 12.1 if even that

keen belfry
#

no tob

mighty pivot
keen belfry
#

we have huge buiild today

#

NR told us so

cinder haven
fathom bramble
mighty pivot
keen belfry
#

damnit

fathom bramble
#

sometimes there are specs doing 140-170% of the value of vers with their best stat

#

and it is almost always haste or mastery doing it

keen belfry
#

fire mage haste IMSOHORNY

mighty pivot
#

maybe outlaw will be that too once they buff our mastery by another 150%

fathom bramble
#

true

keen belfry
#

isnt it funny they buffed mastery by that mucha nd we still ignore it kinda

#

just cuz clitical strike

fathom bramble
#

mastery stacking outlaw can compete for with obr assassination for the top of the meter

mighty pivot
#

at least now mastery is a stat in aoe

fathom bramble
#

yeah they should probably fix that at some point

keen belfry
#

made shaman required for outlaw

fathom bramble
#

mastery is stuck in a weird stat from being able to trigger it on BR/BF

keen belfry
#

6% dmg btw

glass mortar
#

How they managed that with a 150% buff

indigo token
#

OUTLAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

glass mortar
#

Impressive tbh

bright plaza
#

Who is this guy

untold wadi
#

prolly nobody

fathom bramble
#

I mean we did look good on the raid testing prior to our 15% nerf so

iron fable
#

Naowh always doing meme tierlists only

untold wadi
#

he really put the feral fury outlaw in s lmao

fathom bramble
#

depending on how you are construction such a list you might actually put outlaw in S tier if you lack all the info

iron fable
#

Tho all of em are meme

#

But his is more for the lulz

bright plaza
#

Outlaw will never be S tier

#

Would love it though

fathom bramble
#

usually something becomes truly S tier by abusing some unforeseen mechanic or method of interacting with an encounter

#

even a spec that is quite bad on paper(sub last tier) can be incredibly good the same way

#

outlaw just doesn't have the tools to randomly pop off on a specific encounter type

#

we actually did come quite close to meeting the "unforeseen mechanic" criteria in undermine but everything was nerfed with no compensation

#

and we just ended up the same we in that tier that we usually are

bright plaza
#

Why do you think they want to keep outlaw down

fathom bramble
#

I don't think they do

bright plaza
#

I just want to play outlaw in raid and feel good about it

fathom bramble
#

I think they try to make most classes target a certain level of performance and outlaw is easier to ensure that always happens

#

with a flat damage profile and no special mechanics we basically never punch massively above expectations for weird reasons

iron fable
#

U can do that still, balancing is actually good, and all specs are viable

#

Waiting in que is the only bad part

#

Community perception

bright plaza
#

Do you play outlaw in raid?

fathom bramble
#

yes

#

I have played non-law on 2 raid fights in the last 2 expansions

#

Tindral and dimensius as you could probably guess

#

outlaw is almost always good enough

#

decent, but not great is where we live forever

bright plaza
#

I mean that's cool and all but I'm not playing just to be good enough

iron fable
#

Well than u need to go for the meta, but its not like meta is 10-20% better nowadays, as it was for the longest times before

indigo token
#

i pretty much only play outlaw

#

cause outlaw is the most fun

fathom bramble
#

well good enough kind of means a different thing to everyone

#

it's good enough for my purposes of getting just Hall of Fame in a timely manner

#

without feeling like I drag the group down

bright plaza
#

Feral looking kinda good these days

iron fable
#

Ye even for ce all specs are viable, it is more very high end m+ and nowadays def mattering more than dps

#

And most of all community perception is whats the bane of non meta existance

#

Not blizzards balancing

bright plaza
#

Lol

iron fable
#

Even if the best and the worst would have 3% in between, ppl would go for the best

#

But its not much more than 3% usually nowadays

fathom bramble
#

especially in keys

iron fable
#

Atl east for raid

fathom bramble
#

raid tends to be more reasonably balanced than keys

iron fable
#

For keys it swings more cus of the class combos and current dungeons needs ill admit it

#

But u can start any spec and go for meta in the last half of a season

fathom bramble
#

and group buffs making certain comps much stronger than other possible comps

iron fable
#

Ye thats so bad

fathom bramble
#

which also serves to push out classes that bring no buff

#

unless they are tuned particularly high

iron fable
#

Ye its bad cus in keys a blaance should be 9-10% worse than non buff dps, as it can give 9% dmg back to themselves and the other 2 dps

#
  • tank and heal
#

But blizzard wont ever balance around that

fathom bramble
#

that can just create a reverse of the current problem where a buff dps is now bad unless they have people to buff

#

I would rather just see raid buffs removed from M+

#

or entering an M+ simply grants all raidbuffs to your party regardless of comp

iron fable
#

Ye that would be best

bright plaza
#

Pipe dream

prisma lantern
#

Or give mini buffs to professions.

Don't get 9%, but say 6% with same buff ID.

Like drums.

iron fable
#

Or do what dks get, blizzard is hellbent on not giving a buff for them, so they tune them high so they cant complain

#

Give that treatment to all non damage buff ppl kek

#

But its a shame a non burst spec needs to be tuned insanely to be better in avg circumstances

#

And it would be way overtuned on bosses than

#

So id like to have a bit more umpf to AR, esp if it is a proper cd now

I didn't see any talent changes on patch notes what changed?

#

Oh it's level 90 things and now we need to spend more talent points before unlocking the final 3 rows?

kindred shadow
#

is blind supposed to be aoe again?

glass mortar
#

nobody knows

#

according to the tooltips blizzard has provided, no

#

but it is

keen pilot
glass mortar
#

yea they just changed the gate reqs pretty sure

keen pilot
#

Feels bad on level 80 now XD

glass mortar
#

yea well we all know blizzard doesnt give 2 brain cells of thought into leveling experience

#

apparently that includes prepatch preleveling experience

frank finch
#

damn fb is like 6% behind in st for me

keen pilot
#

They said we would spend get more talent to spend until level 90, I didn't expect they would actually take away 3 in level 80 instead of just keep thing as it is and just add to level 90

#

Anyways

#

At least I got the broom mount

#

With my outlaw rogue

are we playing trickster of fatebound now? :v

does wangbar work for feral still? i'm not seeing it. is there something i need to change in the lua?

polar kelp

I feel like we are fatebound now in pre patch? we only have 6 combo points?

#

or maybe we go 1 lethalist and skip supercharger to get strata

obtuse brook
#

So is fatebound or trickster the play now?

glass mortar
#

pins have the info

quick ridge
#

Does pistol shot still reduce damage dealt to the rogue? I can’t find the source of that effect in my spells or talents, but the debuff indicates it’s there

glass mortar
#

no

#

they removed it

#

prob never updated the debuff tooltip

quick ridge
#

Do you happen to know roughly when they removed that effect? Is it a midnight thing?

glass mortar
#

midnight

#

it was on this talent

quick ridge
#

Appreciate your help! I was thinking I was going crazy

Ohhh

# gaunt phoenix No we have 7

I have an extra idea for a trickster talent. Allow autos to continue during KS channel. Add it in the next build please. Thanks!

gaunt phoenix
#

sure

mighty pivot
#

when you press KS it legit feels like your energy pauses

copper radish
mighty pivot
#

instead of just haste? because otherwise it doubledips

copper radish
mighty pivot
#

they can just... reduce the base channel instead

gaunt phoenix
#

Gain 25% haste while Killing Spree is active.

copper radish
#

Mini lust every time

mighty pivot
#

ship it

mighty pivot
#

they still haven't fixed that our tooltips say 1 to 6 combo points huh

glass mortar
#

shit like this is so funny because its the most unhinged way to just reduce ksprees channel time by 1/4th

#

but there is possible interactions for trinkets or items that put hasted dots up

#

btw has anyone actually tested if the 5% dr is gone from PS

#

or did they just bin it from the tooltip like the blind talent but its still functioning

glass mortar
mighty pivot
#

well it shouldn't work, but they did forget to update that tooltip too, and now it is being fed another value (probably its damage done)

#

so you get this

glass mortar
#

rogue tank enjoyers r gunna lose their mind with this one

they just heal the rogue

Did our talents actually change with the patch today? I don't see anythign different.

Yes

they didnt change but the ones u can pick changed which updated the aoe builds

#

info is in the pins

frail veldt

You might not have been impacted

But yeah pins have the full post

if he is max level he is impacted

Oh I see, we spend 1 more point before the last 3 tiers, so we have 1 less after

they are also the only ones who give blizzard any credit btw

I give it where it's due

As a healthy person would

Yeah we've never given blizzard any credit(except for loving outlaws gameplay for the last 2 years)

only popo and guy do that, stop lying

prepatch tuning will suck but beta just remains to be seen

beta down

#

rogue rework incoming?

brave lagoon
#

ah yes "the error"

gaunt phoenix
#

ye just fix it

brave lagoon
#

kinda wish I knew which addon threw that error tho kekw

pastel sierra
#

Could just be blizzard UI

#

The amount of times i had buff frame errors

brave lagoon
#

probably

mighty pivot
#

the funniest side effect of the new patch is that recuperator got nerfed by being less accessible

brave lagoon
#

my fps in fight tank down to like 10 and that error pops up

gaunt phoenix
#

i didnt notice, but they added blade flurry cast to AR reduction as well

pastel sierra
#

I have had 5 digits, i havent managed to hit 6 digits yet

gaunt phoenix
#

that one might have at least some impact

mighty pivot
gaunt phoenix
#

it becomes that other one when deft maneuvers is talented

mighty pivot
#

to me it looks like it's just an extra spell that fires instead

gaunt phoenix
#

maybe

mighty pivot
#

like with shuriken storm

#

because in logs the cast is still showing the low spell id

#

so you have 1 spell cast for the normal spell, and 1 extra spell cast for the energize effect

#

the spell id 400000 whatever that they've added doesn't even have a gcd

#

(but the base spell is already on AR's list anyway)

undone notch
#

Is the melee damage bonus talent still worth taking after the melee damage tweak over the adren rush talents?

gaunt phoenix
#

Yeah, but you also take the AR talents

What do we give up then?

Find and Opening and Heavy Hitter can go now

Find and Opening

@mighty pivot my kitty cat acquisition is happening as we speak

I trade FaO for Menacing Rush and 1 Heavy Hitter tier for Prep

Hopefully I'm not throwing :/

#

Losing 3 final tier talent points hurts too

Did they fix Blind being bugged to still be AoE?

why did they not give us a dragon tanking spec

#

i was so sure it would happen when evoker got announced

wintry solar
#

Because blizz sucks

craggy barn
#

shrug i can only assume they think the tank slot is oversaturated and theres not a playbase to support more tank specs

wintry solar
#

When I seen the model for the dracthyr all hope was lost for ever getting a cool race

though that recent survey about potential new specs

yo! super quick, which are the best posions for outlaw to use

gaunt phoenix
#

your lethal poison is almost always Instant Poison

there are some cases, like the miniboss in Halls of Atonement, you can swap to Wound Poison for the healing reduction

your nonlethal poison is generally a choice between Atrophic and Numbing

can use atrophic in raid and numbing in keys

not much you can do other than display the buff. not sure if arcui can attach a different alert for each stage or something. at least there is a pattern

one die is stage 1
two dice is stage 2
three dice is stage 3
golden dice is jackpot
