yea but it's good for rogue, feels like blizz doesn't know what to do with this class
"best state rogue has been" is not same as in a good state tbh
best spec is 200 io below
tbh with current version of outlaw i would enjoy Hidden Opportunity
numbers can be tuned but for the longest time rogue was easily the clunkiest most button bloated pos class
and it tanked the playrate massively for a reason
Yes i know, i've been playing outlaw for ages
clunkiest, no. Since the rotation was actually making sense and it flowed kinda nice
they buff outlaw again ?!
no?
kk thx
Im interested where they took this data and was thinking that the nerf is justified
outlaw is ONLY working in m+ with a melee comp
nerfed by more than any other spec so idk
it would seem to indicate that they either didn't do the math on the change
or think we are the best spec in the game
and still performs approx 10% worse than the other 2 specs within the group
I don’t care about raiding I just want it to be a blast in m+
NOTE: only in overall, and overall should be checked as the prio dmg and single target is good, but anyways 
shouldn't be*
I mean pvp has their own balance changes/team
They made pvp specific changes along with pve this time around
so don't think that's the case
Course i’m always down to blame pvpers anyway
XD
We do the same to y'all dw
Good
Even though we're justified 
what do you mean, you can pick up all three specs in any content and have them be viable i dont understand
Because tbf PvP is the reason we haven't been getting new glyphs
they are clueless with rouge but compared to tww rouge is in a good spot
So we're tit for tat
The massively subjective “viable” and “any content” are doing some heavy lifting there
I am just saying that your logic is kinda off. Just because it is better than before doesn't mean it's in a "good spot"
We were in a better spot most of tww than we have been in this tier
It is actually in a good spot, dont get me wrong, but BARELY
And only thanks to a seemingly accidental buff that is quickly getting adjusted
3,6% dmg reduction 
ye but in here its always portraid like rouge is the most rancid class in the game that isnt competitive in any way, like we are 5 tiers below any other class or spec
i dont get why did they even touch rogue it was not OP or anything
is tha real?
so its a nerf?
It's just emotions kicking in over pixels. I a mthe part of those peeps
I meant we have a 3,6% dmg reduction for the group
but yes, its a nerf, check pinned
6% singe target nerf and 4% aoe
omfg
I literally swapped from sub to outlaw and they pull this shit
That's what you get for fotm rerolling
I think those ytbers headlines like “outlaw BROKEN?!” every now and then are f*cking us
Yea waste of vault mainhander 289 wep
Like if devs tune thing based only on what they read on their feed
Good, get outta here
#gatekeep
??
i blame wox and casual
releasing videos like "outlaw is so broken we timed a 21 with 17 deaths"

Fun fact: I rolled a guardian Druid this week and now they are nerfing dmg by 15%
i rolled an aug, spent like 800k gold gearing it
Maybe they are just after me 
How could you do this
and did like 50 dungeons in a week to gear it
it was hella strong ngl
idk I have no clue about that bear yet
It’s funny because any comp with law in it would be stronger having aug instead
And aug isn’t getting a 6%
yeah
it was burstung higher than dps specs on beloren intermission
didnt it get 5% nerf
To their damaging spells
Idk the exact ratio, but obviously a lot of their dam comes from buffing allies
which is actually like 2,5% nerf overall or something like that
just off the top of my head
wasnt outlaw the worst always this xpac
By most metrics it would have been considered the worst pre-cloud
Surely more changes coming
hands diff in all cases ngl
Sounds like a hunter weapon
i need someone to tell me what spec to play on my rogue
they will all perform the same next reset it seams, play what seems the most fun to you
@tepid galleon play what u like
they all have pros and cons its just what pros u like more
I did zero research when i decided to level a outlaw rogue as a arms warrior main just to see myself basically playing a class with the same damage profile, thought i was gonna do burst damage lol
@manic quartz that would be assa or sub
i still play arms just wanted an alt
time to level up survi tbh
Are we having fun yet?
no 
cost cutting
profit margins must go up
Right when I spend some hours gearing up my outlaw rogue and learning how to play it, nerfed. Smh
(Insert first time meme here)
It is actually, usually main enhance shaman so you'd think id be used to this
🙁
Outlaw playable? Pls nerf fast. Blizz devs 100%
!wa

Still fun to play imo
this spec is such a struggle sometimes
i have a feeling i should keep it rolling on 2s

cause otherwise i'm just getting 1s
legit dont expect anything else ever with tuning
but how the hell does brewmaster still keep bob and weaving around nerfs
why is the world ragebaiting me?
It really was too good to be intended 
Time to reroll. Its over, dead class, meme spec, uhhh what other doomer staples am I forgetting
some one at blizzard lost in dps to an outlaw
idk how
even in zacs comp which is literally fucking maximising outlaw damage
he still gets gapped
how is that allowed
the favouritism is so blatant
idk its kinda deserved for how much of a staple outlaw was
Blizzard will be the seemingly the last people to give outlaw a buff, it almost feels like they had to, but man are they quick to take shit back. They fucking hate this spec I swear. Wait they are doing dmg NERFED
Hi, idk rogue tbh, but want to know if it's a nerfed or a buff for outlaw ?
Du have numbers in % of up / nerf ? Thanks in advance
yeah its a nerf details in the pins
like I really don't get conitnious buffs on war
good thing i have an rshaman
WHEN DO I GET TO HAVE IMPROVED PERFORMANCE OVERALL
they don't even pretend to care
no dev notes
no one is home
Who the hell is keeping these devs in check?!
i really hate how in these blue posts they seem to just randomly pick classes to add developer notes for, like why are they not on every change
if i lived anywhere near blizzards office i'd be there with a sign
i truly just need someone to look me in the face and say this makes sense
it's not random
demo is bad in raid
yeah we're good on one shitter boss per tier 
was outlaw good in raids?
lets go
also cherry picking vorasius is kinda crazy
the developer notes are explaining why are they doing the changes
the screenshot is explaining why are they doing the changes
yeah for warrior
blizz 100% hate the rouge
for rogue its just the changes with no develper explanation
Ye, nerf rogue spec, least played class in entire game xD
dks get so many buffs in all 11 and 12
One boss man, thats only one boss
enhancement - am I joke to you
Even the hyper cherrypicked vorasius doesn’t make these notes make sense
this is why I posted a screenshot as a substitute for developer note
Unholy is above us in your choice example that is omega specific
And is nerfed less
and its a terrible reason
go look at the real bosses
I mean vorasius is the most benchmark type fight therefore the most appropriate
but yeah demand for specs in cutting edge fights is a bit different
Lets hope they reverse the nerf because we are commenting on wowhead
im considering fury warrior as an alt – how does it compare to outlaw? in terms of playstyle
the real reason is outlaw might have actually been the rogue spec of choice on an endboss, and if that is the case the world would implode so blizzard is really saving us all
That’s just not true
they're there already, no need to jump
There’s a reason why melee take all the top spots on that fight
And it’s not because melee are good on a simple st benchmark fight
And then starfall comes in swinging too thanks to the grubs
According to this, Frost dk didnt even really need their 6th? Buff in a row
Blizzard just doesn't know how strong the Cloud Cover buff was for Outlaw, maybe they just looked 5 minutes on discord pins because they don't give a fuck about this class anymore and saw that it was like 6% gain for Sub and assumed it would be the same for outlaw, because 1 minute more worktime that isn't spend on DK and DH is to much.
hi pirates
the crazy thing is
Hi
we weren't even that fucking good
thas was a joke
it would make more sense if we were giga gapping topping meters
Dk discord still in slowmode
but this shit is still mediocre
They probably didn't like cloud cover being that good relative to the joke
I do like when people take the 95th percentile (which is pretty much perfect conditions) of a class which relies heavily on good play and up time. Then be like ITS PERFORMING WELL THOUGH, but without good conditions the damage nosedives fast to being mediocre.
Tree I mean
Where u been?
it's fine they'll give us 4% single target and nerf blade flurry next week 
How close is fatebound now comparsion , roughly guessing
95th percentile is just standard because no point balancing based on people who look at their keyboard to press skills
Because people keep asking stupid questions and being dumb
They see those big numbers and automatically assume it's dead
Vorasius is the perfect encounter for a cloud outlaw because you dont even move that much while dealing dmg, so you're all the time in the cloud, hence why it's normal that rogue is top 2 dps on that boss
!m
thats not a tuning issue lol
i mean cloud ||is bugged anyway so that you refresh the buff when it expires regardless of if you're in it or not||
so that isn't even a factor
almost feels like blizz tells us to eat shit and if we do anything where were the best spec even for a period of a week in one small aspect of the game they freak out and change it
lets all abandon outlaw 
so they're left with no more players to play it
Maybe, I just think that 95th of Mythic raiding (of an already small sample size of players) is cherrypicking god runs/rng
lets just abandon this game is a better approach
This is a WoD demo situation for sure, we just gotta bait blizz to say it
i mean 75 probably does enough to filter and 95 is low pop yeah
Regardless of the percentile you prefer to pick outlaw is really good on vorasius
it doesn't change a lot
But it’s also just a boss that doesn’t matter…
I think Bliz honestly would prefer that cuz a lot of people dislike it outside of rogue mains
It adds to the vault and that's important enough for me 
Pick 10-20th percentile actually so the true best specs show up
The “approachable” ones
I feel like most content I see on the game everyone enjoys it but doesn’t main it
huh?
Just uncap us and everything will be alright
even uncappedo our damage probably wouldnt be worth pulling around 
wish granted
BF uncapped
BF nerfed to cleave 15% damage
wtf are you on about
we are already gonna be at best average in both
we were not average
yes, we were in the top 30% - still behind like 5-6 specs in either
With physical comp at least
we are not top 5
is assa gonna be meta spec rn for m+? i wanted to reroll for a while
and that's purely overall
Whos better other than arms?
meanwhile aug or ddh or unholy are just top-5
regardless of comp
that's ignoring the fact rogue brings absolutely fucking nothing to the comp
Feral druid is pad dmg merchants
feral does more overall and brings druid buff
rogue does less damage and brings
nothing
brings vers + bres
better util than rogue
Im not saying the nerfs are deserved
in general
arguing that Rogue can't be good at damage in both raid and M+
should make you think "ok why would they bring us then"
and the answer is
"they wouldn't"
tell me we're a top 5 m+ spec when these are the overalls in a comp specficially designed to make us succeed
please man
and then look at the patch notes for warrior
and then tell me that makes sense
He still made the group no?
that's his group
like that's people he's running with
they play with zac because he's a god gamer not because outlaw is actually good
literally best outlaw in the world, on general basis
can replace outlaw to any spec and would be better anytime
Its a competitor for a spot in arguably the second best comp in m+
"second best comp" there are legit 2 outlaw team in the whole world
right now it's not
next reset it will be a median damage spec with no utility
I can gurantee atleast half the pics here outlaw did more meaningful than feral
which kinda does make it dogshit
Who would you bring other than rogue?
Maybe hunter
bm
Dont think ret makes the list
what do you mean by this
ii was telling my raid that i need outlaw wep for lura, can i stop coping ?
i didn't know you could just opt to not deal the damage required to kill the mobs
my bad
Meaningful dmg aka killing the add that must be killed for you to progress to the next pull
you mean prio dam?
okay but someone has to actually kill those other mobs yes
For example first pull algethar the vine lashers dmg
Okay but then I want BTE when resetting to refund 5 combo points and KS must be like boomstick from survival hunter
like you can't just clear the dungeon without clearing those mobs
Ye but some people misunderstand when u say prio dmg
so let the idiots misunderstand
doesn't mean it isn't required
In almost all cases they will die with the prio dmg unless u have an arcane mage or a sin rogue
Prio target*
imagine disable blade flurry and not doing aoe with outlaw and the group still has better dmg at overall
Whether u pump on the smallies or not
wish granted
energy regen from all sources reduced by 10%
i had to scroll down to 160 to find a 3rd group playing this comp btw
OP for sure!
Never said OP and I agree that the nerfs are undeserved
Not the greatest but I'm herr
I never did 😂
'arguably a top 5 spec in m+'
Damn you’re hard to work with. Okay okay, killing spree hitting like a uncooked noodle instead of a wet noodle
yeah bro
where is ele nerf?its too op there is a team with high keys
wish granted, KS taken off Restless Blades
Dps wise pre nerf arguably is fair imo
But when has ever blizzard took m+ into consideration when balancing specs
if you take overall in a complete vacuum and ignore utility completely there's maybe an arugment
if you don't do that
They are clueless
0000000000%
make so KS works like spinning crane kick where u can use other non channel abilities while its going
🧠
they always ignore utility tho
no hero, no raid buff, no utility, no strong niche
literally just damage and you're not even the best at that
Well.. sadly blizzard doesnt care about m+
They look at raid charts and call it a day
i mean
even there
if you actually look per boss instead of all boss
we're being hard carried by first 3 bosses
and who gives a fuck about those
U lost the head of balance team right here
I give up
Too advanced for them
I mean I don’t understand the changes they did, rogues were not op at all
They changed hero talents and tried to compensate with aura buffs
And failed
good
Mafic writes another post about how everything is a huge W
outlaw might have been better than sub
Arnt you happy
had to fix it
Why can’t outlaw be decent for one season
It was not even one season it was like 2 weeks
we were in strong in like, s2 tww or s3 df
its impossible to enjoy the game with such wild swings in class tunings
prime time
spec was fun and we were strong
now spec is ass and we're gimped
sick
It’s weird to me how they decide to do these changes
You have to parse like 90+ in raid to be in top 5 dps and the other dps are doing 70+
And they get less of a nerf
In m+ we don’t have the biggest burst AOE or they ST
While demo gets untouched
And aug gets a smaller nerf
i dont think m+ is even a consideration at all unless class stacking happens
then they're like oh yeah probably should do something about that
otherwise they do not give a flying fuck
dev dh is new shiny toy it was destined to be op and in meta atleast one season
Aug also at least in the past to top dmg as Aug you had to react to peoples cds
Now its brain dead and top dps
On all of the hard bosses in mythic
Hear me out...
They want Rogue to be so crazy unpopular, so they can "safely" do a full rework without diehard mains being too upset
well thats not true
Oh yea and our raid “buff” still sucks
The truly tragic part is that rogue is a fundamental fantasy archetype and somehow, neglected and borderline austricised
No no rogue as a whole
sure but look at where frost mage/udk are
Not specs
thats why the other 2 are so low
but hey didnt we get bloodfang in d4
weve been least represented spec prior to buff in m+
in high keys
not spec class
combined all 3 specs
because they have another spec which is very good
yea thats what im saying
and that 1% was zac alone i guess
Lol, there are so many sub rogues
I mean why play fire when frost is giga good
With better defs and better dmg profile
frost is giga good???? isnt it cheeks in m+
cause comboooost
We live in the monkey paw result of "I want all three Rogue specs to be equally viable."
like mages can swap freely
Hey guys I was just checking warcraft logs for the raid, so it's worth it to run outlaw rn? damage seems crazy!
Mythic raid
gearing fire atm seems very unfun
just braindead design
i think stat overlap has a bigger impact on offspeccing
and sub going back to mastery prio kinda sucks for that
We grief ourselves by just being rogues tbf. This discord is a victim support group
definitely doesn't help
Sub last season was only good because of trinkets and boss design
It was perfect for sub rogue
yeah but sub is always good "because of boss design"
In every way
because they always design bosses it will excel at
so it's really just always good at this point
not trying to make it a competition of which rogue spec is the most garbage but there's a clear historical winner 
raid wise
i mean thats legit true though when sub was gigabroken in raid after rework we had smolderon which was designed so only sub could line up all his massive cds with all burn phases and btw rogue while being good after rework in m+ one of exceptions not being meta in m+ right away after rework because it was aug sp mage meta
remove augvoker
so obviously a single talent point getting +13% feels bad
sure enough the rogue's AI designer doesn't even know how much numerical impact their own design has.
blizz should think about upgrading to a more expensive model
gpt-5.5 or opus 4.7 or something
and buy more tokens while they're at it.
its May bro
maybe a late one XD
There was too many people playing outlaw
Outlaw cant be good more than 1 week its a blizz rule
We should be doing literally 20% more dmg than now to make up for the shit utility
they didn't pressed kir when buff was up, sad
maybe they are just making a weekly roll system with buffs for us to play
and its 1 roll every time
Is this outlaw nerf a april fools joke wtf is going on
How we getting nerfed the same amount as dk and more than dh's
outlaw legit has no positive interactions with raid design
like the most positive interaction you can have is a boss that stands still and doesn't require you to move out of melee range at any point
that's it, that's the win condition
and then people say "you just want target dummies"
yes, that's the only thing the spec is designed to be good at currently, I wonder why I would want bosses that cater to my spec's design, insane
i think outlaw deserve one more nerf and to compensate it buff feral so melee comp does not affected 🙂
😭
you cant compare to a hero class, they need to be op for a season
season?
I need to be op as outlaw for a reason aswell
Remember
When outlaw was good on council fights ?

idk Vanguard erased all my memories of that
The worst part is, we're getting basically destroyed on meters
Other specs have overtaken that niche sorry, oh btw they are also better at ST and aren’t target capped and have a raid buff
And we're still going to play trickster
So we're still going to be spamming smoke bomb and won't be able to see anything under it


They can't take that away from us
they just give you a short glimmer of hope and then take that away instead 
Wednesday might be the day to hit the uninstall button until i see new class changes
Is it possible to get more adjustments Monday?
I had just swapped and was having fun.

Back to Sub I guess. I really missed having more than three things to hit
i dont remember the last time they've made a change on outlaw and iterated on it
even in beta they iterated for like
3 weeks
then let it sit 
well this is technically an iteration on the cloud cover changes
Outlaw the first week of Legion was very fun. Was the best class in every type of content.
That was a good time 10 years ago
i mean like within the same cycle before it goes live
not very often but
usually if there's public outcry
too bad we have no population
or big streamers
they walked back the ray of frost thing for frost mage
they were gonna remove a charge
bc there is not human designers for rogues
frost is actually pretty fun atm
I think what kind of confuses me the most is what catches their attention and what doesn't. I don't know what the internal processes look like for their company though. I feel like this was a very quick fix compared to some of the other classes. It feels extra ironic considering the state of Outlaw and Rogue as a whole.
Hello guys, you think we got a nerf in the next patch tuning?
Cloud cover was kind of annoying, maybe because I couldn't see the floor very well. I'm cool with them taking some power away from taking power away from it, but not turning it into a Nerf.
throwing dart on the board
with outlaw taking half of it
i just dont understand why they dont even try to numerically tune things within a range
like they do not try
1 00%
even shit like tier sets they seem to have no standard for what it should be
sub rogue 14%
warlock
3%
why
why have that be a thing
I know it's not possible, but there's this part of me that hopes that they see some of these issues on Monday and are like maybe we should give them a 15% Aura buff
it's all just random bullshit everywhere
yeah, no
we've been in the dirt since the start of midnight
15% aura buff my guy what are you smoking
"outlaw bad? things are as they should be".
Oh 100%
Keys*
guy told us we were wrong for being paranoid about getting nerfed btw 
my tanks run about 50 miles away from the cloud anyway, 5% aura buff W
fun fact
this has no impact
LOL
check your buff bar next time it expires when you're outside it

nice little surprise
wouldn't be surprised if they fixed it, with this tuning
Just to fuck us even harder
Wait so you get the whole 20 seconds no matter what?
incredible
yep
I was still dipping back in just in case
they can't even be bothered to write Developer Notes, not even a single word of explanation
pure arrogance and contempt
Jeeze
i was also dipping in and out ye
they can take away our damage, but they will never take away the friends we made along the way
maybe this is the lesson
and people were like "uhh maybe the damage isn't that good because people aren't playing around cloud cover well"
:xddd
kill me bro
sounds lore accurate to me?
this spec is just a meme
At least I got a cool coat yesterday in game.

watch guy actually come and say outlaw is still good
guy is a blizzard psyop if he does that

So I'm using SBA for disability-related reasons. Does the 25% GCD penalty massively skew haste as a top stat for me almost regardless of any other situation, or am I mis-thinking the situation? Does Raidbots take that into account when I run sims on gear with use_blizzard_action_list=1 one_button_mode=1 use_cds_with_blizzard_action_list=1 as options to have it realize I'm using SBA?
but would you be even surprised ?
Are we still playing tricker after the new buffs/nerfs?
atm seems like it
Solo said that maybe some more research is warranted tho
Fun police strikes us down again
Dw, guy will make a Twitter post
Keeping outlaw as an okay spec appears to be not possible for blizzard
I read the notes without fully understanding and was like "Sweet, I just rolled to Outlaw, having fun, and now we get a flat aura buff aswell", and then I read it a bit more carefully and got context from pin, god dammit
I got it, Blizzard is bringing back pirate theme by having us drink copious amounts of rum and grog to forget the last 2 weeks. We all go back to FB, and it's like we got a 5% buff
Arrr mateys
I think you will need to use custom APL from here
https://github.com/simulationcraft/simc/blob/e7ce6b8cf58cd12f1e0d5cba5b7c13da38d93724/ActionPriorityLists/assisted_combat/rogue_outlaw.simc
Im so happy I just spent my coins to get a myth wep and skyreach trinket for outlaw so I can go back to sub 😄
outlaw always gets compensation nerfs even if we get buffed
Oh? I'll check it out, thank you!
This is my first tier as Rogue, so yea! 😄
welcome to the doomzone
On left side, there is README.md file which explains a little about how to use it
Yea, back to gearing boomie lul
I fuck up the outlaw rotation on a regular basis in keys, but I am having hella fun.
All good things must come to an end.
fucked up part is
this is probably the least fun outlaw has been in like 3 years
for a lot of people at least
you don't even know what you were missing 
With building back after resets etc...
Its ok Jordy
Soon we will get
DF and TWW remix
Or classic
and we can go back to it

I cant keep up with resets and procs, but getting better at it. I like that roll the bones is somewhat easier to understand, and I am just a huge Killing Spree enjoyer.

maybe they will buff something big so they are doing a prenerf #copium
XD
the crackshot resets were a lot more predictable than the current ones, and didn't require you to rebuild with different rules
so it was a lot more straightforward
and more importantly
a lot more fun
except remixes have been current iteration of class design
not the ones present during that expansion
yeah, but by the time we get remix
But atleast sub is back to more haste/mastery, so I dont need to recraft my gear anyway lul
Maybe outlaw will be fun
ah
i think ignoring energy current fatebound is pretty good gameplay wise
we didnt get to play it with the ace buff from .5 either
I'm sure that there is an AI doing balance changes. This can't be human made.
I doubt
Ai wouldn't fuck it up like this
Unless they literally gave it very specific data which skewed outlaw
AI would give us some conciliatory reasoning, only a real human idiot could cook this up
casual gearing a lock, so expect nerfs to that next week
ye, and after complain it says, "ye you are right"
? This is the balance change we were for sure cloud cover was going to get even before it went to live servers since the node is so outsizedly good; the aura buff as "compensation" is a bonus
balance the specs based on the first 3 bosses of mythic, skewing your balance by a factor of 20% based on popularity of the specs, make no mistakes
Expecting it doesn't make it hurt any less
how much diff between tricker and fatebound
gotta wait till solo tells us 
if less than 3% i prefer to fatebound , its much easier than trickster
True
feel like trickster is easy too with all the same finisher rules and builder order barely mattering
My biggest gripe with trickster is just obnoxious smoke bomb
Its actually more boring to play than fatebound, because there's no minmax
Just finish at 6+
Hey! theres the finish at 5 CP for KS
i dont like KS
We dont talk about ks here
i absolutely agree
Ks in its current state is not finisher
And nobody can persuade me
Its a meme spell
It is a meme spell, the damage is usually below our instant poison damage.
Not worthy of being capstone
The only reason ks exists is trickster
Could've been great capstone if someone just listened to feedback in TWW 
I dont really like KS either tbh but I dont really think fatebound is a god send alternative
but to each their own
No its not
KS is just another snd with a cool animation, thoughts?
But at least theres some fun minmax there with PS and SS
Trickster is
Finish --> ps --> ss --> finish
On repeat
i think you would have to 5x the damage of killing spree to make it feel punchy
I think it should've been uncapped aoe frontal
To match animation...
Not some random target shit
agreed tbf at minimum ^^
Broomstick 2.0?
blunderbuss returns!!! XD
Honestly random variance is fine, can you imagine if random things just died around you while using an ability like that? I mean shit that would be sick. No one would complain if it did damage honestly, the problem is, it does nothing. Increase the cooldown but just please make it do damage.
it being random target is just so stupid
if it did big damage with that it would be even worse
isnt there like 3 dungeons with 1hp mobs this xpac
which btw can't die
Blizzard will never move away from random bullshit, it’s in all their games
can we switch to dk
i think that would be offset with flurry, if flurry actually shard the full damage on killing blow damage
well it's more that
some pulls you have those 1 hp mobs
that are not only absorbing targets from your flurry
but you can random target them with ks
instead of whatever is actually alive
very fun
but yeah the killing blow thing doesnt help
but they couldnt fix the bug without breaking something else!
oh no i agree, its mind boggling that is actually a thing tbf
Outlaw got nerfed by more than dk, Aug, and dev are you ai levy
Ok let me think
bonus
look, look, look, I'm just sayin we knew it was comin'
Dev dk Aug arms ret warlock elem surv feral/outlaw
blizzard could not abide outlaw being mid for longer than a week
And tbf other specs is just cause idk the tuning on them cause no one plays them
we only suspected it was coming because we assumed they were too incompetent to understand the actual impact of their changes
are u counting outlaw in full phys as well
Oh ye for sure
ye
i mean theres no difference to what youre playing tho
only sub is going back to old talents
outlaw possibly being the rogue spec of choice on the last boss of a raid tier?
i mean im devourer that will go outlaw as stand-in because our rogue isnt available
i wanted to crank more
Warrior needed 10% buff right….
nah, play prot if you wanna raid as warrior
yeah arms are also shit in raid
blizzard certainly doesnt
hesright
nothing matters
Clearly rogues don’t matter either
got full myth gear, just wait to upgrade or craft
you might have accepted that they dont need to balance the other pve gamemode
doesnt mean i will
you mean pvp 
im not cucked enough to let blizzard get away with murder every day
pvp in mmos is never a real gamemode
And yet, they still don't give a fuck 
those people are delusional
Trickster still ahead?
season is over guys, pack it up. hope the next expansion fixes us.
rogue is fine for raid 😭 wym
prolly, we're hoping solo finds some secret and we find out that fb and trickster are the same
what
running no scruples instead of cloud cover
essentially saying that cloud cover is still better
oh okay i understand
thanks Maerik
i didnt have the idea its a talent
sorry bad english baguette baguette
If its 1% to 2% ahead I am returning to fatebound 👍 Hope the calcs are out by wednesday core
Tbh, I would be ok with nerfs if they remove KS from rotation and every hero talent that says KS changed to whatever finisher
This just reinforce my believe than tuning in wow is complete dogshit rng
not that anyone from blizzard ever reads this
And they have no clue what they are doing
Does Blizz read wowhead comments?
but god we are so cucked into accepting being dogshit
Also trickster is still better so we have to play the dogshit gameplay
While doing less damage
Good job
Ai dev
I go back to sleep
do you think blizz runs numbers on the changes or just sends it and see what happens when people simm stuff ?
or they could actually fix KS to make it worth while and feel good to press ^
not like they are likely to do that...
They don't
They have no clue
0 clue
would like to see the intern's notes on this "balance" change
I actually think they just play lottery with numbers

If I commit sepuku in front of blizzard hq do you think they would finally listen to feedback y/n
n
You would get notes from AI bot
damn
they would probably sue your family
same here, but im afraid trickster might be still better by 6% or more
if i lived in the same state as blizzard hq
dogshit killing spree and fartclouds
id drive there and gatecrash their campus
to find the person who did this
and just ask them to explain the reasoning
i wanna hear it
i can sponsor your trip there
transatlantic flights u got me
sure

livestreaming "investigating the outlaw conspiracy"

"the real reason blizzard does not fuck with us"
I could probably explain their reasoning, but it won't make a difference really haha
i mean it worked for ret palas XD
🧾 Likely Developer Notes (reconstructed)
Rogue – Outlaw
We’re making adjustments to Outlaw’s Trickster hero talent to reduce the impact of stacked defensive and burst interactions tied to Cloud Cover, while increasing the spec’s baseline damage.
In recent performance data, we observed that optimal play with Trickster allowed for disproportionately high value during short windows, particularly when stacking multiple Fazed effects. This created a large gap between average and high-end performance and led to situations where survivability and burst output were exceeding intended targets.
To address this, we’ve reduced the duration and stacking behavior of Cloud Cover and Fazed, and removed scaling interactions that amplified secondary effects beyond intended levels.
At the same time, we are increasing Outlaw’s overall damage to ensure the spec remains competitive in sustained combat and does not rely as heavily on specific talent interactions for performance.
We will continue monitoring Outlaw’s performance and make further adjustments if necessary.
I posted a wow head comment because I think wow head comments are very important and impactful and not because I'm raging
This AI sucks
go make a wowhead article
surely
zac u just need to mic up and start making slop guide content every time there's a new change or rule
get 200k subs
yea pretty much what I would have said. they dont want outlaw to have burst by design. it gave too much, talent disparity for output was too big.
add in the multiplier that is blade flurry and that is why you only see small aura buffs. Outlaw damage output seesaw swings far too hard if over done by a small amount
then rain down hell on blizzard
Just remember, calling it "AI" is, at the very least, passing the buck of responsibility onto something that can't hold it: a human has to sign off on it, at least
but do they fucking use sim or something to adjust classes, like if they reduce burst, make the rest of the dps the same
It didn't give burst omegalul
outlaw and burst kek
had a burst of hope for viability
we have burst though
gg
I feel like ppl don't get what burst actually is
BURST OF SMOKE
Tell that to my +-70k DPS during beloren egg
damn that intern for giving that AI slop the go ahead
Cause you got buffed lil bro
It's not burst if you have 70% uptime on it
Guys
Please
erm the crit stacking damage bonus is not a burst window (comparitivley to before)
Be serious
guys its just AWC going and outlaw is pumpin there so they decided to nerf it and with their scuffed math's they think that 5% aura buff offsets nerf
You had 70% uptime on it
Bro
70% uptime
Burst
On 70% uptime
No no, the variance I mean. Surely it's burst when it's randomly 70k more for a 30s window 🙂
Keke
Oh ye for sure had more variance xdd
If anything fatebound might be burstier than trickster lo
forgot you fight things that last more than 15 seconds -,-
soooo I just got back on OL, time to jump ship again?
It's kinda funny that people are discussing how outlaw is working with you, zac
Most people do
got myth fist from raid and everything...
I think
It's like me walking up to Messi and discussing how football works
I mean people should
Otherwise what am I gonna do
Talk alone in the discord

Messi must feel lonely
I don't feel lonely
Well, it could be about other things than the damage profile of outlaw
I own that Messi guy no
yes ure the messiah
I mean point still stands regarding the power disparity between talents tho ^
maybe we need messi to play outlaw blizzard might listen to him
Yes
agree
and will get carryed even more on reset
I mean not wrong
Tho I'm doing the routes for him tbf
Me and porsea putting some work
To increase his damage
You guys basically jsut point at what Shai needs to kill
And how he can kill it harder
i mean dont you fix that by buffing other talents and running the numbers so the class does not suffer from the changes ?
They forgot to run the numbers
Exactly how they forgot to run the numbers when they added the talent in the first place
they dont know numbers *
yea, but its blizz. demo locks OP... better nerf rogues XD
I mean, the nerfs now are still a buff in relation to before cloud cover change, right?
Or when we got that 4% aura buff with bf nerf omegalul?
Can't believe this happened btw
Ret approach to stuff seems to work
And then the week after we get a 13% buff and we still aren't a good spec
But we needed to nerf bf for a 4% aura buff
Lololol

Yes
i think they still have PTSD from BFA when you run like 3 outlaws
But why is my spec getting nerfed by more than dk Aug and dev
I think Outlaw suffers a bit from needing uptime tho. Compared to the other rogue specs
Why is arms getting buffed for the 5th week in a row
Well, bug on the bleed so of course they need a buff to other abilities xD
yea that is so shit, and a clue that they dont run numbers
I'm sorry but blizzard devs are bottom of the barrel iq stupid
Naah, the devs are good. It's just the guys doing balancing that are addicted to gambling
And just roll balancing out with a pair of dice
If devs were good, we would have working patch on release of .5
i mean arms getting buffed is fine they are not in dk ddh spot they are same niche as we are but why the fk nerf us
Instead of every functionality being broken
Anyone looks bad if you get rushed in your work
I mean they are probably the strongest spec in the game rn
Idk why no one plays it
Meta comp should have arms in it
Shaman healer
And dk
And then Aug whatever sure
Or dh
If you can't spend 10 minutes, to ensure that when bonus rolling item --> remove item from pool
it's bad in raid still so still needs buffs apparently
Under pretense of being rushed
all good
Then no
I think top keys runner are legit braindead rn and can't see how op arms is
You're still shit dev
It's turbo broken
they do not st unless you do bring some funnel for them as you guys do and i guess noone wants to bother when udk and ddh works well regardless and fit better with aug
They don't fit better with Aug tho
You could Aug an arms lol
You can Aug anything you want
That's just being obtuse, Tauxy
Idk is it ?
We're paying for expansion
We're paying monthly sub
And we get patch where nothing is working
maybe i have no idea how they work now tbh because i just started playing after long more than 1 exp break because i was bored of rogue gettin fked all the time
Their bugfix on roll tokens wasn't solved in 10 minutes
It was also working perfectly in their test realm but retail works differently
With issues that could've been spotted from 5 minutes od testing
And fixes that probably dont take longer than 10-15 min
welcome back
Which again, a lot of these things again come from "We want new content out every 8 weeks" instead of having enough time
i'd accept this nerf if it meant we can have more fun (playing fb)
but staying in this shitdog spec and getting nerfed
²where did u see that ?
Based on these numbers and with no other changes @Warrior Updates
In single target, Fury Slayer gains ~10% and Arms ~8%.,
In multitarget, Fury Slayer gains ~10% and Arms ~6%.,
Thane gains ~6% in both cases, while the impact on Colossus is pretty minimal.,
Keep in mind that both specs just lost 2-4% from the Deep Wounds hotfix though, so this isn't quite as big as it looks. Overall, I'd still call these very good changes, even if Warriors aren't going to jump to the top of the meters.
Cheers you guys are pumper i love u
I am just still in the discord, but I don't play warrior atm
holy Ramfam fan im feeling young again
Ye it took longer because they released this shit, and had to try to fix issue for people which already rolled (which they couldnt)
Being obtuse again by ignoring their testing on test environment that doesn't work similar to live servers
every patch you argue the same thing. that we should kill the blizzard devs bcs they are shit at codding. dude if the code is made by a shitty intern its no the interns fault that the management didnt emply senior devs
We miss ramfam 😔
yep
Hi guys! Quick question from novice: which dung is best for voidcores drop for now?
