Which is a dps loss

sonic pawn
#

aah got it

#

Makes sense

winged quail
#

IDK why I just sat and read the whole "wArRiOr WaS Op WiTh GaVeL" conversation but now I have a brain tumour👍

#

like bro the logs were right there

thorn fjord
#

That was hours ago 🤣🤣🤣

winged quail
#

it was too funny tho

near valley
#

Was someone arguing that gavel wasn't busted or something?

spice spire
#

Not rehashing this

#

The tl;dr argument was that warriors were zomg busted

thorn fjord
#

🤣🤣🤣

spice spire
#

But reality was that gavel was

winged quail
#

Warriors would have been dead last without gavel, even with it they barely made it to middle of the pack

#

idk how any1 could say warrior was OP

near valley
grim tangle
#

fuck warriors either way

near valley
#

Tbf wasn't gavel so busted that even guardians took it?

spice spire

#

THEY WOULD NOT OXI

gusty mirage
#

but its bad for BM hunter

winged quail
#

Haha it would be really silly if Blizzard buffed the ring that would be crazy haha

gusty mirage
#

so you know its going to get buffed now

spice spire

Is it bad for frost mage tho

I'm afraid to say Ring is good on Outlaw and therefore I cannot support your cause

gusty mirage
#

go back to playing with your dice

balmy condor
#

Bro fuck outlaw

gusty mirage
#

which is fitting because the casino game is called Craps and outlaw is a crap spec

near valley
#

Tbf I'm not saying I want it bis all season

balmy condor
#

They stay winning on every fucking thing that gets added

#

I wish the ring got nerfed so they don’t get it

winged quail

If ring is not BIS, this patch is gonna be really boring

balmy condor

and I want it nerfed

near valley
#

Oh wait

balmy condor
#

so the rest of the people don't have to farm it either

worn badger
#

man, yall fired up today. Is Blizzard removing Mutilate or something ?

balmy condor
#

no they're trying to force the dumb 0.7 ring down our throats

gaunt moat
#

I want something to do, I don't mind working to get it. i'm gonna farm it even if it's not good. so might as well be good.

oak sky
#

i hope they remove mutilate

winged quail
oak sky
#

that would mean changes

near valley
balmy condor

#

i want it to be rewarding

#

is what i meant

balmy condor
#

you're going to replace it the moment 10.1 hits anyway

#

what's the point

uncut echo
#

Yeah man

balmy condor

how is that rewarding

we're always gonna replace everything

oak sky

spice spire

Ilvl parse juicers POGGA

balmy condor

there's new content to push in 10.1

winged quail

I lvl go up dopamine released

gusty mirage
#

outlaw rogues be like "WE'RE BIS GUYS OKAY?"

balmy condor
#

there is no new content to push in 10.07

worn badger

thats the benefit of being forced casual this expac( got a dream sous chef job and a now 8 month old) i always have something to do

gusty mirage
#

WORSE THAN BOOMKIN AT BOSS DAMAGE

#

HAHAHAHA

balmy condor
#

what are you pushing that you need the ring for

#

in 10.0.7

#

that makes it so rewarding

putting bis borrowed power in a x.7 patch

is fucking dumb

people have been ragging blizzard for doing it since legion

#

when you had to do 3 hours of world content

winged quail
#

It's OK Sub is a human spec I enjoy pressing 2 buttons outside of CD, it would really make me sad if Outlaw was buffed

gusty mirage
#

I wish

balmy condor
#

if you make the rings strong, you're just telling people that they need to go farm it after they already progressed 10.0, to get them for the start of 10.1 to be optimal, so you can prog week 1-week 2 with it, but not too strong cause if they're strong week 1 in raid and they're doing dumb damage and can be used for any extended period of time, blizzard also already said that they would nerf them because they don't want them to be strong.

So it's a ring that isn't allowed to be strong for new content, and isn't relevant for old content which is already cleared, and a lot of people have been shitting on the required world content for the greater part of a decade now

good dev time usage blizzard Okay

gusty mirage
#

40 minute queue @spice spire

spice spire
#

Time to blast

#

Or run some absolute rat cos/temples

near valley
balmy condor
winged quail
#

Ring should be balanced to be roughly even with current rings imo, that way it works as catchup gear rather than prebis for next tier

gusty mirage
#

when the fuck did I do 3 keys

balmy condor
#

but blizzard seems hellbent on making them prebis

worn badger
#

this makes me want to go actually lvl my rogue. i tried switching to guardian since i was casual this week only for guardian to be dps instead of a tank spec =/

Let’s fucking go

Is assassination spec playable outside PvP? (M+ and raids) I'm pretty much new player, don't wanna spend 25 hours lvling 1>70 just to be disappointed and kicked out of every M+ lmao

dark token
#

You won't be kicked out

#

You will just find it harder to push keys than other specs

#

Where they cap out at 27 maybe you cap out at 23

balmy condor

you could also swap to the other specs

unreal bear
balmy condor
#

the amount of times people will kick you because you're specifically playing assassination

#

in 20's

#

is like

#

MAYBE 1/30

unreal bear
#

it happened early in the xpac, but it's stopped mostly

#

it's more likely you won't be invited because you're a rogue

autumn frost
#

People like sub and outlaw

unreal bear
#

soothe weeks are nice though

autumn frost
#

and the utility is nice.

spice spire
#

I’ve never been kicked from a group

#

Ever

misty holly
#

There is no room to invite rogue to pugs. You need a Bloodlust, you need 2 battle rez, you need a mass dispel, and you need at least 1 aoe stun.

misty holly
#

Takes a very specific comp to cover that and then add a rogue

drifting cloud
#

lol

unreal bear
#

we don't bring anything other than damage and most classes perform just as well if not way better

ie. balance druid

ive been kicked from a few 22s

#

but its not bad generally

dark token

I used to sin m+ every season and have never been kicked out for being sin specifically

#

I had like 1-2 players leave group

#

That's it

drifting cloud
#

it happens, its just so rare its not worth taking into consideration

#

same as how people will kick outlaws for not being sub right now lol

unreal bear
#

if a group needs a rogue, you're more likely to be invited just because people know "sub meta meta good"

drifting cloud
#

because people are idiots

autumn frost
#

I got kicked the other day. Was a feelsbad moment.

misty holly
#

Yesterday I think I was "shadow kicked" We all zoned in people were buffing, then each person left the group 1 by 1.

I looked on group finder and the group was relisted =/

They shouldve just kicked

balmy condor

real

oak tangle
#

i hard swapped to sub and got my portals from it, but more of my io still comes form the keys i did as sin

balmy condor
#

if you're gonna kick me

#

at least call me a slur

oak sky
#

Thats what i want tbh

unreal bear
#

i get called "yellow name" which isn't a slur but it feels like one

marble hemlock
#

it is a slur

#

actually

#

or do you think anyone uses the term "outlaw" in a positive light?

#

unless youre talking to a fellow outlaw ofc

#

and im not talking ingame btw

#

just the general use of the term

misty holly
#

Maybe if we make a stink about this Blizzard will change it back to Combat.

oak sky
#

Lol good one bro

#

They won't even make changes to the specs thwt exist right now

this is a really good change honestly

so assuming just tier

"lets talk about the 10.1 changes to the catalyst"

but hey

to be fair it is different

from df anyway xd

oak sky

seems like theyre moving back to the stacking charges from 9.2 as well

storm belfry
#

i mean they stack now tho

oak sky
#

only to 6

storm belfry
#

what was it before

oak sky
#

and only if the character has been at 70 i think

storm belfry

and tbf do you even need more than that

marble hemlock

they dont explicitly state it in the article but this heavily implies your alts will spawn in with a bazillion stacks of catalyst

oh you poor soul

you will come to renegotiate that number (nerfs pending)

since were just progging knockbacks for a little

Oh boy, Tuesday hype tomorrow! How are they gonna change the tier sets? How are they gonna rework sin? Who knows?!?! So exciting, I get so giddy.

balmy condor

the answer is none of the above

there is no rework in ba sing se

have to crush hope like that

go look at mezuki's past messages

#

same thing over and over again

marble hemlock
#

too much effort

#

but ill take your word for it

gaunt moat
#

Mandatory insane wowhead comment:

marble hemlock
#

its not actually wrong though. theres people who dont raid or push high enough in m+ or pvp to be eligible for that free tier piece, so the change does nothing for them whatsoever, and their "catalyst too late" complaint still applies

#

and thats a sizeable part of the playerbase, believe it or not

gaunt moat
#

It doesn't "force" you even more than before in any way.

But I think going there will lead to the discussion of "do normal difficulty players need mythic ilvl gear"

marble hemlock
#

well, theres no reason why the tier set couldnt have been granted on normal kill for example, or on any kill really. im gonna ssume we will get another "kill last boss" quest that gives a bunch of renown. might as well have granted the token

#

but the argument of "doesnt force you to do x" is a weak one when people try to play optimally, albeit at different levels of skill.

the problem with the comment isnt that it does force you to raid, specifically. it forces you to engage with any of the 3 major content types.

gaunt moat
#

I'm guessing because they still wanna pace it to a certain degree and make it rewarding.
I don't think their goal here is to have all characters have full tier set on week 2 or 3.
and while getting a gurantee tier reward from normal or LFR would be nice to more casual players, it would also mean for more skilled players that they "have" to do that and also that they'd finish their set very very early, making loot feel not as exciting.

marble hemlock
#

it would obviously be a one-time only thing

#

not "do it on 3 difficulties to get 3 pieces"

gaunt moat
#

then you run into another issue:
you finished it on normal? now you've missed the opportunity of getting it from heroic

marble hemlock
#

you can still upgrade it

#

anyway

#

i like the road theyve chosen

#

i still think catalyst week6 is too late

#

couldve done one on week 2, one on week 4, and then starting from week 6 weekly

gaunt moat
#

yeah, i posted that just for the sake of saying people will complain about anything positive.

marble hemlock
#

fair

gaunt moat
#

We'll see how late it feels next season. I agree that this time, as someone who was guildless up until the catalyst, it was a struggle to get set.

#

Not like we're gonna get any tier priority next season with how this set bonus looks Cring

oak sky
gaunt moat
#

I don't think he was arguing against that. He was just talking from the perspective of the wowhead poster.

oak sky
#

i dont really think theyre forcing anyone to raid

#

if anything isnt 2200 score or 1800 in pvp easier than heroic in week 1 and 2?

#

at least for the majority of players

iirc 2200 is like doing 16+

oak sky
#

yeah i think thats gonna be pretty easy week 1

#

er

#

week 2

#

since we have better gear coming in from the previous patch

#

week 1 it might be ~all 20s

gaunt moat
#

Yeah. that's why I said we'll get to the argument of "do they really need the gear" if they're not engaging in any challenging content.

oak sky
#

idk

#

getting a set bonus is a big thing rn

#

so like i can kind of see how it's a little meh for those players

#

but like if they aren't pushing for anything super tough maybe their tier set is even more of a carrot

gaunt moat
#

If it's more of a carrot then an argument could be made, that it should be a more distant goal.
I mean.. I like the changes. I just think still complaining just shows you some people will not be satisfied until you log into game, click a button, and you're full BiS gear.

sudden canyon
#

whats new? horse still dead?

gaunt moat
#

what's new? ret pala gets more buff Surebud

sudden canyon
#

ofc blizz cant feel like their rework was a failure

oak sky
#

its a failure lol

#

like im sure its fun

#

but its not gonna bring more rets to the raid necessarily

gaunt moat
#

wowgrandma has been streaming for 27 hours marathon X_X

oak sky
#

the crux of the rework is the 2nd paladin raid buff

#

which can be brought by a prot paladin instead potentially

#

or a 2nd hpal

#

soooo

#

not entirely sure how anyone let them get away with that

gaunt moat
oak sky
#

thats just tuning

oak tangle
#

i read the comments on paladin tier, the prot pally write up reads like a high school essay XD

oak sky
#

sin only gets brought if its tuned well

#

compared to sin and sub

#

ret gets brought if its tuned well OR if its better than prot and hpal

#

it can never be better than hpal its impossible

#

and tuned well for ret is compared to every other melee in the raid btw

#

if you consider how many spots are clogged with raid buffs it doesnt leave much room

oak tangle
#

the problem with ret is why would you take one when you could take another dps

oak tangle
gaunt moat
#

huh. it's not on main page

#

weird

oak sky
subtle tundra
#

From a ret

oak sky
#

yeah they take hpal

#

the 2nd raid buff doesnt do anything for ret

subtle tundra
#

And then you don't consider a ret at all

oak tangle
oak tangle
#

?

oak sky
#

useful for mechanics isnt real

#

theres only damage and raid buffs

oak tangle
#

how many priests on raz a screaming right now

oak sky
#

just have your evoker carry the priest

gaunt moat
#

@oak tangleAm I blind or that article wasn't published on main page?

oak tangle
#

sounds like evoker is useful for mechanics does it not?

oak sky
#

thats also 1 fight in a whole tier bro

#

i feel like when we talk about stuff like this its to justify bringing something on "the majority of bosses"

oak tangle
#

if a class can negate something, they inherently have more use

#

sure you dont need a bdk tank for raz, but it makes it easier for your entire raid

gaunt moat
#

oh it's litteraly first. guess I AM blind.

gaunt moat
regal sable
gaunt moat
#

Oh, another copium filled writeup

strange python
#

They do pretty meh damage with a mostly useless damage profile

#

High burst to low health adds isn't usually an in-demand damage profile

#

Shit even forgot having another bop, always strong.

oak tangle
#

yeah they have uses, but when those uses arent needed, why take them

#

i can't think of a time when you want / need to bop someone this tier, and freedom for that matter either

strange python
#

The problem with ret is even when those uses are strong they aren't taken

#

Sac, freedom, and bop had a ton of use in sanctum and a few sepulcher fights and they just don't get brought

oak tangle
#

yeah but the problem is all 3 of those arent ret specific

strange python
#

True, but having extras of them made things even easier

#

We absolutely demolished sylv by pull count and having a ret+holy+prot pal combo was definitely a big reason why

#

But we were an enormous outlier

#

Having two freedoms for raz bombs would be really really nice for example

#

Ret suffers from a tiny playerbase and just not bringing a useful damage profile

#

The truth is that there's probably too many specs in the game at this point. Too much overlap, anything different is usually either insanely OP (uh dk) or gigashit (ret)

oak tangle
#

ret is represented mroe than sin

strange python
#

Sin is depression.

oak tangle
#

fuu linked this

strange python
#

What content is that for

oak tangle
#

raid

oak sky
#

what difficulty

#

also rogue comes as a package

oak tangle
#

i think as a whole from wcl, you'd have to ask fuu specifically

oak sky
#

its from subcreation

#

at least it looks like it

strange python
#

Rera almost double feral in mythic which is shocking

#

Rets*

oak sky
#

i mean nobody plays feral

strange python
#

But I guess feral is weirdly a cleave bleed build now, not an ST monster that it used to be

#

I wonder if a lot of ferals left the spec because of that? Idk

oak sky
#

nah

#

there were just never any feral players

#

and not doing st normally means not good in raid

#

not really the case this tier but still

#

i think with aff and spriest potentially competing with moonkin at some of their niches feral could be good eventually

runic hinge
#

I played feral for ST and now i play sin

Wtf is this university I got kicked out of class for no reason

subtle tundra
#

Good news is I get home earlier

steel ridge
#

well destruction is on the bottom of the overall and gets buffed.

gaunt moat
#

Probably because destro still has quite a big player base.

steel ridge
#

ok how much are we dooming if this weeks 10.1 build doesnt have rogue tierset and changes?

subtle tundra
#

No dooming

#

Giving up 😤

gaunt moat
#

I think it's likely to have the tier set.
and pvp nerfs.

steel ridge
#

sure pvp nerfs are mandatory

brazen zodiac
#

whyd they kick u out

#

or better questions, what were the events that occurred prior to u getting kicked out

subtle tundra
#

I was in my bench and for 10 seconds I wasn't writing anything and looking downwards

#

Then the prof asked me to continue the problem they were solving. I didn't know cause ofc I don't fking know it's the first time I see this

#

3rd year of university, treated like kindergarten

#

Well it makes sense, I play assa

steel ridge
#

once had a teacher that said "idc if you listen or sleep, you paid for it anyway"

#

i rested my head on the desk and listened somewhat sleepy

#

she got mad.

#

i responded "you said you dont care, so dont be mad at me now"

subtle tundra
#

Some professors didn't care when I was literally sleeping in the front row

#

But if I got asked to get out faster I'mma take that and head home

#

I think tonight I'm going to the cinema to watch 65

#

didnt know lessons were mandatory at university, thought you could skip if you learned it at home

oak sky
#

depends on the class

subtle tundra
#

laboratories have mandatory attendence, otherwise they dont let you take the final exam

oak sky
#

Ive had classes require attendance to discussion

#

Also to lecture

subtle tundra
#

everything else can have a part of the final grade from attendance

#

5 or 10 out of 100

subtle tundra
#

yeah cause i was actually paying attention
i have to program the algorithm we were doing

royal lantern

#

Being kicked out of class is the best first experience, especially when you're actually a good student o respects class

#

My second year of university me and a friend got kicked out because in a math class, we were studying "probabilities" and teacher asked my friend "give me an example of a real probability", after like 5/10 seconds, he replied "there's s high probability I'm not understanding a single thing you said since the start of the class".
We had laugh attacks and since we couldn't stop laughing, we got to go home sooner xD

subtle tundra
#

probabilities

#

hard mathematics

normal mist
#

It got harder when we actually had to calculate it xD

#

But hey it was just a 2 year course, management of small and medium companies

Dooming before 5 am guys smoge

#

Quick question for a newer Sin rogue. When I'm in a pack in M+ without IC, do I prioritize garroting every enemy or do I just do that to the priority one and simply dump envenoms on it until IC comes up in order to do a multidot with rupture/garrote?

brazen zodiac
#

dooming before sunrise? not cool.

misty holly
#

If IC is going to come up in a few seconds then you can wait for that. Otherwise start spreading Garrotes and Ruptures.

spice spire
#

So you may be tabbing and stabbing a bit friend

normal glacier
spice spire
#

Envenom in keys is often just to extend SnD

normal glacier
#

If say I know that the pack will live for not longer than 12 seconds, is it even worth dotting then?

spice spire
#

Outside of pure st obvi

spice spire
misty holly
#

Rupture competes with another finisher like Envenom, Garrote is competing more with Mutilate, which is a lot less damage.

spice spire
#

But it also +s your damage due to scent + energy regen

misty holly
#

I mean if the mob is just about to die don't worry, but like even 6 seconds is probably worth the Garrotte... I haven't done the math tho.

normal glacier
#

Alright, I appreciate everyones input!

anyone know how to counter a bear sitting a base in pvp? >.> they are like the only thing I cant kill

ah thx for the link, I was wondering where that channel was XD apperently I have it hidden

misty holly
#

Druids are the worst though because they sit in stealth waiting for you to come out first.

#

Hate stealth classes.

normal glacier
hollow dirge
#

"often" the key word. depending on the number of targets, we do envenom as finisher a lot too.

normal glacier
#

Gotcha!

spice spire
normal glacier
spice spire
#

CoS is more of an exception than AA.
There’s huge packs across the board, outside of cos.
And even in cos, you can go docks and kinda blast some damage.
Temple is probably the other one, but it has a few WICKED moments

#

AA, NO, RLP, AV, HOV all have constant fairly decent pulls

normal glacier
#

Fair point actually. Guess I was the one looking at the outlier.

spice spire
#

But yeah the tl;dr is truly pull size vs what finisher to use.
Maintaining CT >1 is always a given after setting up initial bleeds.
Envenom is obviously your go to for boss fights/pure st. Or to finish off a pack/extend CttC
But outside of that, definitely pressing others more

I’ve watched a lot of movies on prime that you have to have a sub for some brand and I just always free trial then cancel

#

Did rogue talent tree changed often during alpha up to release of DF?

#

or more precisely, assassination

thorn fjord
#

Dont think so

gusty mirage
#

yes

#

we got a bunch of connectors that didn't exist

#

we got a new capstone

viscid spear
gusty mirage
#

moved venomous up higher

thorn fjord
#

Oh they did change our utility

viscid spear
thorn fjord
#

But alot of that was early on and then things went static didnt they?

gaunt moat
#

Reason I'm asking is

royal lantern
normal mist
#

Wait our tree was changed aswell in 0.7?

gusty mirage
#

no

gaunt moat
#

Because Naguura gave an explanation (from her opinion) on why druid is getting so many changes.
she said:
Druid (balance) talent tree remained the same since early alpha with no changes until launch.
And that blizzard said they just ran out of time, so they'll rework it in 10.1

normal mist
#

Nevermind, i probably misread what you guys were talking about

gusty mirage
#

they did run out of time on druid

#

guardian especially

#

they rushed through resto/boomie/feral

royal lantern
gusty mirage
#

and ignored guardian

royal lantern
#

90% chance its shit when druids talk

gusty mirage
#

and judging by what's coming

grim jay
#

Thats why balance is so boring and blandkekdog

gusty mirage
#

they're still ignoring guardian

unreal bear
#

guardian tier at least looks good

gusty mirage
#

yeah unfortunately it's the worst tank

#

by far

#

cool tier or not

unreal bear
#

gotta throw them a bone

gusty mirage
#

tier set isn't going to fix the fact that they just plop over

gaunt moat
#

They do get a lot of extra HP, and infinite ironfur.
but i don't know if that's enough.

grim jay
#

Its not like .1 is around the corner tho

unreal bear
#

blizz kinda feels like they can coast til 10.1 tho

gusty mirage
#

frenzied is like a 16 hour cooldown

#

if they drop any stacks of iron fur

royal lantern

they legit just get deleted

we got a shit ton of attention early on

in june i think?

gusty mirage

DH got neglected as well

gaunt moat
#

@royal lantern have you been watching this new movie?

then the balance team took his work

#

and shit all over it

unreal bear
thorn fjord
unreal bear
#

but i could be wrong and i'm just coloring it with my own experience

thorn fjord
#

Cocaine bear will be Friday

gusty mirage
#

also it was acknowledged that all talents trees are going to be adjusted throughout DF

#

first iteration and all that

thorn fjord
#

No more reworks tho

gusty mirage
#

that's not true

#

Ion said no more ret-level reworks

#

go look at everything they did for ret

thorn fjord
#

Yeah major ones

gusty mirage
#

it's as big as both spriest reworks combined

grim jay
#

There are a lot of WoW boys that play diablo on and off tho, atleast from what I've heard

we saw frost mage

#

not gonna make changes that disrupt the meta

gaunt moat
#

and just for good measure, now destro

gusty mirage
#

like if all these buffs didn't happen

#

the assassination nerfs would've been just fine

#

but the problem is

#

they told realz rogue had to be nerfed

#

cause it was "too strong"

#

nerfed rogue

#

then the balance team buffed everything else to the moon

subtle tundra
#

Nerf raid, nerf m+ as well with no compensation

gusty mirage
#

so how was rogue too strong?

subtle tundra
#

Surely bm 100k sims are ok
