assa buff when, we need our niche in execute back or atleast do equal execute to arms :/
All of it is
if only they would fix rogue bugs
The entire class is bugged
And they’re just shitting out damage
“Just send it bud, we did all we can”
Yeah I mean they already did good AOE imo (well not aff really) but this made me want to log into my lock and just go blast a key
Lmfao
Oh yeah
They spent all their dev time for rogue in SL beta nerfing sub
It’s free at this point
Its worse than my 421 jeweled sigent of melandrus
Why are you using the pastel gem
I'd change raid setup if we had more WLs


It’s a nice aesthetic
Vault loved me today
because it says that on wowhead post whispyr made
Grats loon
Oh sweet child
The gem was bugged and got hotfixed yesterday
It’s kinda doo doo now
what to use instead of that then
I mean, why would you get news at the source (in the pins etc), if you can get them on posts that may be outdated

And if they fix that interaction it would be the set up in the pins (desirous blood/frozen/humming)
Ideally right now
You get every damage gem and keep those on hand as well
Cause they intend on making the ring bis for everyone
So they may buff them again
For no reason


They might not change interaction anyways 😁
Dang, I disenchanted my prophetic gem, now i'm outta keys
Except echoing thunder or whatever it’s called
just log on an alt and get more^^
Throw that piece of shit in the garbage
What do I do if already opened up every door?
that would be really nice if i had a lvl 70 alt 🥲

respectable, i just got 80 of the currency to upgrade the 4 potential gems and called it
More than I did
Farm more keys and wait till next week
the message also links to the sims without twilight, so should be easy to fall back if they fix
Ya
Twilight set up in tc research, fall back in pins in here
Go out and open some doors
And if anyone figures out the runic ward chest in there lmk
Cause I’m pretty sure it’s bugged
I have a buddy in druid disc asking if anyone has done that lmao
I think it’s the same one. Sec
which one? theres one with 4 above the chest to click
Ya
and the candy crush things right?
Ya I got the candy crush ones
the one with the 4 above i just had to click it in the right order
Yep that one
and it opened up
Good luck
i got all the "bis" ones instantly
vault was shit
but atleast we got good gem rng iguess
you can just buy the shadow thingy, isnt it a 1/2 chance?
You are insanely geared tho ofc your vault is the poop
What are you after
Oh I thought you had both daggers
Oops!
Next week for sure you will get one of those three 

Man is juiced
Im dooming and not upgrading any gem until friday at earliest
i upgraded like 4 fully and still have currency + all dps gems left
you have more than enough of the currency
Idk man, I got 8 of the move speed wind one in a row
hmm sure

Ban this guy
i had 3 total haha, but had to buy the twilight one from vendor
I did have a leech eon in sl though...
I can’t, he’s my online boyfriend
i have CCT with avoidance in my vault
OKAY DUDE
any takers?
No thanks
(it means fuck you in Romanian)
Why is this guy in socks at the gym
Doing leg day in socks
🤨🤨🤨🤨
You or the trinket? Cause dif answers

sockets worth to go for today or nah cba I wanna keep my secondaries angle?
so barely noticable for us
Would prolly have to farm it anyway and sim it
consider that its 2.6% ahead of BIS, and i dont think anyone in here is BIS:)
so it'll be even more for your own setup
ye I have 4 items I need to replace. 3 of them being raid items with no reclear anytime soon
Its a great hour of content
I got everything going in under 4 hours and I had absolute dogshit luck on gambaing the gems
Including max ilvl gems
Opening the doors releases the dopamine
I won't even touch my pc until in 4hrs 
4hrs on wow 😭
Even though you know you’re getting that shit heal gem
but just for the gamba it might actually be worth
I do love gamba
Esp when rolling for gems from the vendor lmao
omw to upgrade my twilight stone only so it gets nerfed later today
Is there a dedicated channel to get advices or some help ? Trying to improve my parse in raid, but I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Wowanalyzer now has good initial support for Assassination. We suggest using it to quickly see any big rotational mistakes and analyze your ability usage
Link: https://wowanalyzer.com/
If you’re not seeing much you can ping a CF or oxi/whispyr to start you a thread and we can comb over it
so what gems except for the 3 listed in the pin do I upgrade? :)
Thx I’ll start with wowanalyser 🙂
any bonkers?
#tc-research has the info
There are 5 in the pin 
In b4 blue post: “we see some gems are not performing as well as others so we’re buffing certain ones by another 25%”
What a terrible system
So you just spend another 30 mins and get them maxed
😁
They should be ashamed of themselves tbh
Just another idea that had potential and fumbled
The blizzard special
@gusty mirage i just deleted my max rank frost gem by accident
i wanna uninstall
can not
Its okay
Durinf my trial I typed out
"I vendored my grieftorch"
In raidchat
Bc I couldnt find it

Isnt fire gem + cowl + mythic fire ring up to go?

It is a few dps good
Ty man
how does one sim the ring? i dont have the option to just add the gem in the top gear section
hey guys, is there any huge dps difference between AP+IC and DTB+IC builds for M+ ?
Yeah one absolutely cannot single target in the least
Yes
You don't ever take AP
Thats the difference
One does mediocre st and the other doesn't st 😔 assa moment
Mhm!
i dont care tbh lol, assa is love to me
Ye it's a good spec. Just needs a pinch of love rn
So this ring replaces signet of melandrus?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
So it is shite 🤨
Is it an upgrade for ppl that reached max ilvl?
I have 415 cos ring + Eranog ring, if I dont need to swap I would postopone that for weekend 😂
Yes
I am the same
I need to look into it further, I assume it can be upgraded by some means
And its how big upgrade for you? (Mine are socketed*)
i think i just lost a stone
I'm not getting bc I refuse to worry about it for a while
Oh, yes
I also had the CoS 415 it was a big upgrade with the interaction of twilight+blood
i just replaced a gem with another gem, does that mean the old gem is gone?!
Did you sim?
And time to assemble all parts of it, does it take long?
Nah
Oh shit, patch or slice
maybe 2-3 hours if you're unlucky
With some luck you can get them in a few hours
Im a bit burnt from the game after my last weeks raid
patch
I have some gems already but idk if theyre the ones I want
I might have the blood one
You can also gamba keys with elemental overflow
So both the gems and the ring may be upgraded?
that the vendors?
And they are upgraded by JC?
Ya the expedition one
Cataloguer Deana or some shit like that
Ya work order unstable elementium (I don’t remember the 2nd word exactly)
They can multi craft
So if you know a JCer with multi craft you can save a ton of fragments
I assume they need to be upgraded fully before inserting into the ring?
You can remove em at any time
Ok
You get a quest that puts a jewelers kit & anvil in the camp
Run over to it an extra action button pops up
I’ll write a little comprehensive faq in wow gen when I get out of court
Which utility gem would be good for progression apart from blood? Gleaming Iron maybe?
Why would you use weird gems aside from the current best setup for dmg
Couse we arent having issues with dmg?
You are a dd, you deal damage and your defs n stuff are on the better side. If you need a gem setup for other stuff you might wanna work on mechanics and/or your healers
Thus utility effects matter, we have a survival issue atm
Are you the one dying? If so, you're doing something wrong in your play.
Gearing for survivability in prog isn't really a thing. You gear for damage and don't sit in bad mechanics.
no, died 3 times all raid day on spider, its not me but any heal off me, would help another
You are literally trying to combat a fundamental issue with tiny bits of impact
is it the actual healing thats the issue on sennarth tho?
Healing isn't exactly a thing that's targeted at people that much
or is it just people getting dragged off
A lot of healing is AoE
we losing ppl here and there, not the pull in
yeah but
just "heal more" isnt a solution that any healer can work with
cause thats not how healing works (or, ya know, "just take less damage")
its about identifying why people are dying and what couldve prevented that, and a dps playing a more defensive toolkit wouldnt be on the list of solutions unless its that player thats dying
how far do you get in the fight?
If people are dying to damage on sennarth I'm guessing it's the add living too long or people stacking for the bombs
like, its an admirable effort to try to be more survivable, but rogue already is
Dono, sometimes I feel like we overlook utilities too much in wow and disregard possibilities. Any encounter is also a survival check too, not just potential dps. Was wondering how much I could lessen stress on healer tbf
Unless you're standing in something bad, most healing you're getting is gonna be shit like healing rain, efflo, etc. You're getting it regardless
If you really wanna reduce the healing burden you're probably better off pressing feint, pot, and vial more
youre absolutely right, and a lot of people underestimate the value in optimizing defensive gameplay on top of offensive one. people need to learn how to utilize their defensive or utility toolkit efficiently and not sit on personal CDs unused for 4+ minutes. but the ring doesnt offer very potent utility or survivability, so its notreally smth you can min-max around
just killing the boss faster should help the healers more than anything else
Being a rogue the ring would have no discernable impact on your already high survivability.
Morning Sinners
We talking defensives?
I’ve seen a lot of people never use feint
That tend to die lol
I’m raid that is
feint is a dps loss.
It is a dps loss
I cried the day CD was put on it
But ya lose more dead
if i dont proc cheat death, then why have i talented into it?
truee
Varas with a god tier take
“It’s a cooldown” 
I know one day logs are a meme but just for the sake of the fun ... we did it boys, we are officially the giga chadest ST rogue. Sin bis yepge
pure st fight
bro we are the bis st rogue spec for 6 years 
middle of the pack
that's what happens when they buff 8 other specs
unfortunate
biggest DPS cooldown we have
I spoke of this months ago
and was told that I was overreacting

and then I said we'll see what happens when 10.0.7 drops
granted destro and aff are bugged rn
so that's why they're that far ahead
frost dk and mm hunter were already neck and neck with us
ele was close enough where their buffs would've put them close to us
and I was like just watch
it's gonna happen
what i wanna know is how its okay for frost dk to do 250k on council btw
we're coping with top 4 ST spec
My honest reaction
we're 4th now, before all these other specs are getting a shit ton of buffs
the rest are yeah... not okay
Ye
the reason demo isn't as broken
ah
But nothing like aff and destr9
they gain less from direct damage increase to their abilities
Ye
all in all as u can see roguye is broken and definately needs to be nerfed
all 3 specs for sure
sandbag what bro
just 1
we're middle of the pack
lmfao
there's no need to sandbag shit
we do mediocre damage
sandbagging means we dont change position
spec uscks
On heroic or mythic
hey if we all did 99's we might only be 1k behind 2nd last instead of 5k
mythic
class sucks*
that step from 2nd last to us hits hard
now the sub rogues can't cope about their aoe damage
with frost dk absolutely shitting on them
welcome to the dooming boys
assassination's kept the seats warm for yall
dude, boss died at like 4:40. so pretty much best case possible for me, i was on the boss the entire time. still got beat by like 5 other people (2 bm, 2 aff, arms)
just delete the spec
Wow that's so cool !
just go next expansion man
they're just better players bro
we don't get it
I might get another dose of copium
that bow thing was the dumbest thing ive ever seen an actual human come up with
wanna hear a secret?
Qwik plays a hunter now
there you go
that's all you need to know
I'm going spriest :)
unfortunate
'while this spec is the best Sustained ST spec in the game' its too bow reliant so we are gonna make it even stronger but now less bow reliant so all players can press their 1 button and equally dominate'
wrong shadow damage class
call me a conspiracy theorist
but Qwik swapped from warrior to outlaw rogue in 9.2.5
just get me out man where riot mmo i cant do this anymore
I'm going to be last dps next tier for the whole season, an Idea of what i'll play? 
and outlaw finally got buffed
after months of rogue TCers saying the baseline is hot ass garbage
then he swapped to hunter
and now hunters the best dps in the game not named warlock

what a fucking coincidence
actually based take. ill buy it
like dude last night on eggnog we killed boss at 1:40 i think? i dont remember but i was padding my heart out, barely at 110k. still wasnt even on the meters. the mage just casually at 150k okay bud
our warlock did 138k
playing demo

u know what funny? I barely beat our demo last night on eggnog. after the fight he realized he was crafting his boot and forgot to put it on
this man played without feet
and still barely lost
LMFAO
:)
dude look at this dk. their 98 vs a rogues 98 based
i was just looking at top dk charts to see how theyre doing 250k+ on 4 target
clearly his/her gaming chair is better
would sin / sub end up dropping eranog ring like its looking for outlaw?
i could just be egg brained
Man I don’t know what’s been going on with my gameplay but I’ve been having such a hard time these last two weeks
I’m ending fights at like 75-76k
Don't worry, we'll eventually get a 3% buff and that'll be that 
Not true
We'll get a pinch more
3.1%
outlaw is special in the brain
oh
that's in dungeon slice
aaah
in dslice ya dropping eggnog ring makes sense
so i was just being 3head
i mean why would outlaw drop a crit vers ring with insane on hit effect? just to put on a 424 helm? idk its a little susge
because nothing outlaw does makes sense
we roll bones and live in peace
friendly reminder that it was the 1 spec the ring was good for before it got buffed by 25%

its now like igga bis for them since their baseline is so garbage lmfao
rogue class actually in shambles bro
u know the rings gonna get more buffs too since they want it to be bis for 'all classes'

this rings gonna be like 15% for outlaw

im just gonna go reroll feral and go afk in goldshire get me otu
Just make rogue the only class with 1 spec that way we can all be mad together or happy together
so you guys are telling me i cant raid log cause of this new patch?
you can
if you get bored one day
interact with the new shit
you'll get it done in a few hours
and then go back to raid logging
fair enough
if you wanna be giga lazy about it
do the intro to the vault on alts
and ship over the 6 keys to your main
knock out the entire vault in like 30-45 minutes
and hope you rng into the gems you need
upgrade to max
and never log in outside of raid again
Highest gem ilvls are 411?
no 424
Have to craft upgrade items from JC
I’m pretty sure they craft an item and you use it on the specific one you want to upgrade
Ty m8!
Hoping this will not be a gold sink
ya
theres a big ping in #wow-general, all the info you need.
thanks to oxi:))
unstable elementium
costs 10 fragments + 25 silken gemdust
and can multicraft
so pray to rngesus
They're not abusing aff?
i didnt think they could mutlicraft
it was the first boss of the night
the recipe for it is a guranteed drop from amephyst. but to summon it you need a rare item that drops.
good thing those random 20 points in multi will now pay off
just buy it off the AH for 750k gold
yeah and JC craft that item too - but the crafting mat needed to make it is super hard to find

oh so it went down in price
last night was crazy for jc'ers
was about that on frostmourne too
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/statistics/31#sample=1 Holy shit sin is busted
i got a tuning fork on my rogue luckily, so easy recipe for me
oh shit congrats lul
insane, looking at a cleave/aoe heavy raid and the rogue spec with terrible aoe is last?
I'm so shocked
Warlocks went from having one good spec and two meh specs to having three specs more-ahead of the pack than sin ever was.
Well Aff is bugged
Still
i was also a lad and put up a group for peeps to get a free kill when i summoned it
Blizzard can't ever let warlocks be bad for a patch

yeah if assassination woke up yesterday doing 30% more damage because of a bug
maybe you guys wouldn't bitch as often
who knows
I dont know what 10.0.7 brang and I dont know what to do just logging on and hopfeully auto quest or something gonna help
Give Kingsbane-Antorus bug, ty
i'd bitch more because they'd use it as an excuse to nerf us then fix the bug
Ruputable in for 2 days or 2 with bad takes it seems
as a rogue, basically nothing
What's wrong with being sad our favorite spec is doggy
ngl i saw u mention it earlier i thought it was a bug but didnt know
thats kinda wild
u cant just ignore that xd
Totally not jealous.
Bastard 😂
one talent gives them 5% haste perma instead of giving their pet 5% attack speed
My issue is warlocks getting changed in 10.0.7 while sin got ignored. The bug affecting aff doesn't change that they got attention this patch.
every single talent that increases pet damage
dude
thats incredible thrall from hearthstone would say
surely it gets fixed
does devs really checking out those charts
something something first pass of PTR
did you not see all 3 rogue specs get repeat nerfed for a month straight
because of the heroic charts?
Sure he can
theyre getting a flat 5% aura + 5% haste buff

Why couldn't he
am I arguing both sides?
Acting like it's crazy for people to bitch that sin got ignored but also calling out the heroic nerfs

Oxi apparently you meming about small indie company makes you arguing both sides 🙃
No.

I responded to him asking if they actually look at the charts
with actual facts
because it was confirmed
they nerfed it based on heroic week performance
but that's apparently "arguing both sides"
again
stick to the numbers champ, I'll handle the words
Saying people bitch about being ignored but then mocking heroic nerfs is definitely both sides
given that it's my profession
no
it really isn't
I didn't mock heroic nerfs
I responded with facts
Idk if that's what they did king
I mean it really is but if you're gonna be in one of those moods I'll just go make breakfast.
make sure to stay hydrated!
Literally every single fucking day someone comes in here
links the WCL stats
and goes "WOW ASSASSINATION IS FINE GUYS"
vs me addressing someone asking if blizzard looks at the charts
with a FACTUAL remark
it was the dumbest tuning ive ever seen them do tbh, rogues got handed so much gear because most people doign heroic week 1 were following what RWF people were doing and they saw ooh rogues are good? so they got all gear, and then rogues got nerfed because they were overgeared while being good and now theyre bad and have equal gear. so just awful
Not allowed to say anything in here about our favorite spec not doing well or getting changes. This chat is for hope and optimism only.
is apparently playing both sides
Low key, I’m excited for CT single target assass return in 10.1. Plz no flame 🙂
why 
they should rather fix KB smh
That's also not the case, it's the fact that you guys link the same shit every single day like it was going to magically change overnight
It was legit question I started playing this game 3 months ago why are you yelling me 
try being a little more original
Fam, its all anyone talks about
I'm not yelling at you
you're fine
I'm yelling at mr. sirstabsalot
Oxi doomed saying the literal same thing for weeks on end but is now annoyed. He's just in a mood it's fine
Yikes take
They should switch KB with exsaguinate and make it 1 min cd again if they love it so much
for sure bro
huh
Dooming privilage
@gaunt moat don't make me go through the logs
of your repeat bitching
day in and day out
you bitch just as much
half of which you delete
Doomers become coomers 
because you're a coward
why are you so aggressive jesus
literally just took tokens instead of item in vault I am sad
!warn @strange python consider this a final warning you literally just argue and cause problems in here the only time I ever hear your name brought up you are arguing
whisypr took primal chaos using his vault tokens yesterday
so based
no need
honestly
he's innocent enough
okay
I spend most of my time in here literally answering log and spec questions.
That's patently false
yo grats
You've come after every single person in here
that's 20 potions from the cauldron
can you explain that pic to me i don't understand the reference to pots from that
okay kinda weird question, but does anyone know if spiteful storm resets if you like focus garrote your focus target?
probably crafting elemental potions but I am just assuming
the pot cauldron needs primal chaos to take pots out
and he bought primal chaos from the vendor using vault tokens
he's full socketed
don't feel bad for him
he has double 424 daggers
and he's full sockets
fuck him
@balmy condor 
i hit 418 flat ilvl this week at least
still only 2 mythic bosses
whispyr the dagger whisperer
2 after a month of vaults
the other rogue and I got our EoNs from vault
killed mythic sylv 14 times
dropped on the last kill
we gave it to our shaman for tmog
you reckon we'll get to see whispyr's wowhead take on the tier set tomorrow or are they gonna release rogues opinions last to fit the theme of us being ignored
whispyr roasted the tier so hard they had to make him redo it. cant be too mean
It’s a conspiracy.
Rogue mage cc being nerfed the most in pvp and being both ignore in pve.
🤔
mage doesn't get to bitch about being ignored in pve
fire and frost were low 80k at the beginning of the tier
now they're both near 100k
Oxi how do I get out of this rut and stop sucking
i guess cs2 makes me not care about the state of sin at least
have u tried eating ramen
werent fire at like 68k with their sims in first couple of mythic weeks, untill they got slam dunked buffed third week
then they turned tuning wheel on ignite
and they skyrocketed
prolly
I don't trust wizard sims
this was the same class that "discovered a small optimization" in 9.0
that gave them 3k dps
ironic most ethical sims from rogues
look at pictures of whispyr every day when you wake up and before u go to bed. make sure to take the pictures with you in the shower. that way you psychologically manipulate yourself in not letting him down, leading to dps Stonks
whats primal chaos cluster ?
idk I'm washed bro
oh wait... hes playing sub now. nevermind man youre on your own
ask stealthi
Just blame blizz devs thats what I’m doing
Even after nerfs
its the stuff u buy from the vendor for vault tokens
givesu primal chaos
first rare and mount are they common ?
holy shit thats sad
2° person i see geting it the last hour so it appears so
Lowkey though I think its 'details' effect. like when you see yourself always at the bottom, it does make u feel like your damagae is irrelevant and you just care less and play worse. dont look at details for a while and focus on playing well instead and doing your perfect rotation.
but you both might just be lucky af
dropped that aswell, that mfs looks like shit bald ass
What’s it look like
I have this when we do broodkeeper I’m just chilling at the bottom of the meters doing the eggs💀
You are a legend
Because trusting anyone else doing eggs on brood in my guild is a death sentence
Omg what the fuck is that lmfao
the secret is to sort via boss damage only and be content with middle of the pack there
oh its the spider man villain
or join a worse guild where you top anyway
bro just dont raid and u will always be top 3 in m+
High iq
does upgrading prophetic twilight stone buffs anything other than stamina?
a few tank specs would beg to differ
XD
my goal this week is to get AV 20 timed, so i can hard swap to preparing spriest for next tier
i knocked a good 3-4 out last week, which was good
I love this 385 gear dropping and its account bound I can level an alt now
mistweaver up to 405 and 2100 feels nice with the patches to it
may be its time to try real rogue the feral
i cant believe how hard it is to get the mount from the dirt pile/expedition packs
looks cool
What is the best gems for assasins
is elemental overflows are accountwide or soul?
per character
they're in #tc-research
fuu compiled them
the ones in pins are the fall back gems if they nerf the interaction
the ring youd replace the CoS ring right, def not the eranogg ring?
I tried to sim instead of eranog ring, and replace cowl in the gear compare, add dagger with bronze grip instead of helm, and it was like 900dps lower for me at 424 onyx annulet, while replacing 415 melandrus ring was 800 dps gain
cool thx
did anyone tried twilight over freeze
does anyone know the gem ids for the ones whispyr says in the pin
/ how to adjust their ilvl
How do you guys open on Sennarth?
i did regular opener - exsang on big add
first exsang on boss
but def not optimal lol
regular opener ignore adds perma
fuck the adds
well big add needs some love
tell your group to get better 4head
heh
from experience, with a group that had a bit worse add damage, i did what i said above then just cycled normally
but that was prog and now i dont care about that stupid spider
No, a known talent check on first dance which auto switches gloomblade or Shadowstrike as ur first global
So rota stays the same between builds
Based as hell
1st add dies so fast, I dont even touch it. Just oppening on the boss normal. I do swap on the others.
@uncut echo why can't they "just remove" Exsanguinate? They're the devs, they can do literally whatever they want.
The talent is dogshit and doesn't feel good to use because the cooldown is awful
Even when the cooldown wasn't awful, it wasn't a super fun talent (IMO)
i really think you are just 100% wrong in that case lol
Just remove it and add something interesting and fun to use
But remember your opinion is just that; yours
like, except 1-2 idiots that cry on the forum, nobody ever speaks positively about exsang lol
They held on to surrender to madness for YEARS.
No one liked S2M either
It lasted 4 years
I also want them to move Shrouded Suffocation to a better spot, it's in a terrible spot in the tree
No sorry, 6
saying "community backlash, some people like it" is a bit stupid, cus thats an argument you can use for litearlly everything
S2M is different
WELCOME TO OUR SHITTY LITTLE LIVES
cus it was just not played
No it isn't
Not Shrouded Suffocation
exsang is played
What's it called, the silence node
Exsang was not played when it poorly tuned
yes, and S2M never saw play cus its always tuned bad
Because the one time it was good, it was obsenely busted and promoted counterintuitive gameplay
Can I just say something from a class comparison perspective
Us playing exsang rn is about our dogshit talents more than the tuning of the spell
My girlfriend plays a prot pally. Now, granted, they just got a rework. But
She can get 5 capstone abilities.
amount of capstones doesnt matter
ww monk can take like 20000capstones and is still not strong
Five. We can barely get two, and if we take two, it makes it impossible to get a lot of the other cool talents at the bottom of the trees (Sepsis, Bone Spike, etc)
I understand that. I'm not saying from a strength perspective.
I'm talking about
From a build variety perspective.
Our capstone nodes require too many prerequisites that give the illusion of choice, when really there's no choice being presented to us
More capstones doesnt mean better or more function
They need to either unlink the prerequisites, or move the other abilities to different areas in the trees, or both
i mean "i can take 5 capstones" does not give you more build variety
if anything, it gives LESS
Again, I'm not talking about class power. I'm talking about the ability to take different builds
Assassination as a class is hinging on a fundamental, Ret level overhaul
Well, the way I built her, I had her take all 5 capstones in Prot. It's not the meta build.
???
But it does seem to be one of the most survivable
the thing blizz said they dont do anymore for dragonlight :3
Are you making the case that they have build variety bc you made an off meta builf that takes 5 capstones
Tanks always have the ability to focus damage or focus survivability
That's not new
No. It's build variety because, as a tank class, you can take survivability nodes or damage nodes.
As a DPS class, we only have damage nodes. So there's generally a very clear correct build.
i mean, its not even real variety because tanks will go damage 9 out of 10 times
It's st, aoe, or st + cleave
So, they either need to bake utility into each node so it feels like we're making an actual decision, or they need to sprinkle the higher nodes throughout the tree against some really amazing non damaging utility talents so we can make some real decisions
That's the nature of a game that solves itself for competitive sake
This argument is flawed
There's almost no utility talents in the rogue trees that make me want to say, "oh okay, I'll give up 400 DPS for this"
You cannot compare a tank to a dps
^
We have survivability nodes, we are actively ignoring them apart from a couple
Let's consider Improved Sprint.
the talent assa takes, and sub doesnt?
Would this be game breaking if it reduced the CD to 30 seconds
2 charges 1 minute cd or burst of speed choice node was suggest, yes
Like
Im telling you
All these takes you have about how shit we are have been talked about on cooldown
Or the physical damage reduction talent. If they're concerned about pvp, just have it be half as effective in PvP
And buff it to 10%
???????
Okay well, I don't live on here
I'm just saying, there's some major room for improvement
You're immediately discounting yourself of any credability you may have had
By throwing out numbers that make zero sense
Rogue is one of the tankiest class in the game
that would be 1 of the biggest buffs in the history of the game mate lmao
Talented Sprint on a 30 second cooldown would be one of the biggest buffs in the history of the game
That is a hot take
No it wouldnt
You recall it being a 5 minute cooldown in classic?
Is this classic?
I mean, no?
My brother was born the year classic came out
Yeah, times change, Sprint has a 1 minute CD talented now
2 shadowsteps for sin rogue is a revelation
And I'm saying 30 seconds would be fine for PvE
And if you wanna keep it at 1 minute for pvp, sure
And i was born before classic came out and I'm not 
So like
The snarky "times change" responses aren't coherent if you also are agreeing with my point
NA 
Does 30s sprint add compelling gameplay?
More that we're asking you to stop because you're the 30th person TODAY to come in here asking about where changes are
I didn't ask where changes are, I just came here to be like "hey I've been doing keys and I've noticed some of these talents suck"
Sprint was 10(?) secs before, also was a time we had sprint procs. Its not in tune with pvp
You're not offering anything constructive and stirring up the pot eith arbitrary 10% physical damage DR takes out of nowhere
Yeah
i think you mean burst of speed, and that also had a resource cost and was on the gcd
They're tuning talents for pvp and PvE now, so any argument about pvp balance is completely moot
30s sprint just makes it so you never have to plan your mobility for anything
Ah yea..
Doesn't sound very interesting to me
This talent does this thing in PvP, but does this instead in PvE
tf
It's a terrible, lazy system, but if that's the way they want to balance the game, whatever
topgear wants me to do haste in every slot now
You annihilated your credibility to offer criticisms of the class when you suggested we have less build variety od a tank you made an off meta build for and saying we should turn deadened nerves into a 10% dr

For PvE
mastery and haste are really really close overall

How would deadened nerves be OP at 10% in raid and mythic content
You're not playing at a level where tuning of that nature would be asburdly busted
Thats something Blizz actively tries to avoid. Inevitably they have to do it to an extend but they dont want clear 2 versions of anything
WF + 30 CoS last boss would like a word
its way over 2k more dps
just by gemming haste
Make 10% dr a capstone
And make it feel like an ultimate ability and you give up big damage for it
And you want to suggest build diversity
So it's a decision
a ye
mb ye
but still huge
sucks to replace all gems tho
Yeh I mean if you’ve been avoiding haste it’s a good stat
wonder if it wants me to do haste on
Here's a quick question, since I don't live on here
sub too
Do people actually use Kingsbane?
No
No
There will never be build diversity
It seems awful
Can you already sim those primirdial stones or you just gotta guess which one is best?
Except the knowledge on wowhead
When I say "it seems awful" I mean "compared to the things you give up to take it"
If you ever think there will be build diversity that is cope
Obviously
The knowledge is from sims
But I think it’s just advanced atm
I mean but there could, potentially, be build diversity, if they added major utility nodes that do huge things that you have to give up big damage to take
Or they could just buff kingsbane to be competitive like they did in 10.0
1-3 talent changes but the rest is the same isnt build diversity
howling rune over buzzing rune now? I wonder
Like I said, 10% physical damage reduction as a capstone. You're giving up using 4 poisons, or AOE shiv (which is a pretty bad talent outside of raging week in m+)
Well I mean. I'm talking about more changes
Not one single change
Either way. There will never be build diversity unless all talents were basically equal in some way
That's where I don't agree, just hear me out
We've heard you out for 30 minutes
Or you gain something extra/different, KB was good with 3 point execute and provided 1 min cd... Lost both
All right friend, keep enjoying the game as it is
Ane that would be a capstone no one would pick. Wtf is that suggestion lol
yo ahri is like
You blatantly said
a vibe
Make it 10% over 3%
I said that's the dumbest thing I ever read
You said make it a capstone
And I said you lost my interest in making recommendations for the class
Bc you said a tank talenting survivability is build diversity
The problem is you assumed that when I suggested we change these talents you assumed I meant change them and then leave them exactly where they're at in the tree.
No, actually. You moved to discount everything I have to say and add to this conversation based on the simple fact I suggested we change the physical DR to 10%

You literally said that
I discounted you before that
What a great guy you are
