we will replace it with a question mark spell that will get implemented 3 days before xpsc launch

balmy condor

Just gotta keep at it I guess

i can at least respect the hustle

balmy condor

If he keeps repeating the same delusions comments every post

#

It’ll eventually reach someone

That’s how cults work or something idk

the anti-shiv/whispyr cult kekw

balmy condor
#

I’m sure a psychologist could write a doctorate about that man

oak sky
#

tbh why does he want it removed

#

couldnt he just say rework instead

#

💀

he believes that poisons should've never been a thing and that we should be playing as feral

tfw all 3 specs has some glaring issues 1 major patch into new xpac DESPAIR

on top of that, shiv/toxic blade was apparently the thing that killed sin rogue

So

Idk

oak sky

he doesnt know what he wants

normal kite
#

he don't want any more buttons than dots and env

balmy condor
#

He does

normal kite
#

but justifies it in interesting ways

balmy condor
#

He wants whatever the opposite of the spec is

cold spoke
#

who are you guys talking about LULW

balmy condor
#

And if people agree with him

#

He will change sides

#

Because his opinions have to be superior to everyone else’s

#

Which means he can never agree with anyone

#

So he’ll cook up even more deranged takes

# hot goblet In fairness, we are garbage right now right 😦 ?

Tuning issue mostly tbh. Like a lot of the issues have easy fixes in terms of being a bad spec.

Like what they could do is make lightweight shiv increase the shiv nature damage % as well so it isn’t as useless, buff kingsbane another 10%, with the lightweight shiv buff that’ll make kingsbane good enough probably. Check and check. Cool. Next issue is arterial precision, make it hit 8 targets, raise the bleed buff to 25 or 30%. Fixed. What else is an issue, scent? Lil buff there nice. Make flying daggers not useless, even just removing the 5 target requirement. Fixed. What else we got? Make master assassin 75% so it doesn’t feel ass. Sick. Uh….. what else is on the hitlist. Fatal conc could probably use a percent or 2, but that’s DTB bait so bit touchy. Twist the knife should increase envenom damage but reduce the duration, instead of increase the duration. Sepsis should give something like the 2 set buff for its duration rather than stealth garrotes. And uhh……. Idk toss something towards CT for the hell of it

cold spoke
#

is that a pin monakS

haughty flicker
strange python
#

A lot of what you outlined brings back talents up to par with current talents

#

We would still need a 10% buff

balmy condor
#

Yah

#

That’s fine

strange python
#

I don't think people really understand just how bad rogue looks atm

balmy condor
#

Just do those to get everything competitive

strange python
#

And I'm moderately salty that guy told max we are "probably B tier"

balmy condor
#

And then slap aura tuning on it till it’s good

burnt latch
#

Wasnt the original intention during beta for the double shiv to be something u could play if u ever needed to hold shiv for a soothe and not really a pure damage conduit

#

Like for raging and stuff

fleet thorn
balmy condor
#

But like

#

The gameplay is more complicated than that

hot goblet
#

Just make Blade Flurry a core rogue talent :P. That’s fix our AOE lol

balmy condor
#

And that’s just how the talent works

#

Kingsbane and stuff

strange python
#

Ngl, I'm okay with sin AoE being bad

#

I like that different specs do different things

#

My issue is that sin is clearly designed (over the last few years) as a ST spec that...doesn't do ST

#

Idk how to justify spriest doing 10k more on ST than us, for example

#

Or destro

balmy condor
#

LOGIN

balmy condor
cold spoke
#

wouldnt that push wf higher in value

hot goblet
cold spoke
#

so its a nerf for me since i never get to get it LULW

balmy condor
#

DTB+AP is actually looking not terribad

#

But it’s still not great aoe

balmy condor
#

Comparatively much better though

haughty flicker
strange python
#

I just think specs should have a power balance. Windwalker is the opposite end. Overindexed on AoE and does bad ST.

#

Seems better for the game to have that type of power budgeting

#

Except we now do less ST than WW

haughty flicker
#

Hopefully as more time passes they can polish up some of the talent trees

hot goblet
#

What is this nerf in the patch notes for our 2 set btw? so thought it only applied to rupture and crimson anyway?

strange python
#

I wish I knew why destro gets to do both.

haughty flicker
#

And bring them up to par to recent ones like ret

strange python
#

Or spriest or fmage

balmy condor
#

Having niches is good

strange python
#

Does every spec need to be able to do m+??

balmy condor
#

But you can’t swing the pendulum too hard

strange python
#

I don't have an issue with sin being raid spec and outlaw being m+ spec

#

I'm probably in the minority there though

balmy condor
#

I mean you don’t

#

Plenty of people do

#

If you’re a windwalker monk

#

What are you gonna do in raids

strange python
#

Idk how you functionally make every spec able to do everything

balmy condor
#

Swap to mistweaver?

strange python
#

Most raids aren't super ST

hot goblet
#

I hard mixed m+ towards the end of season and just forced sin and tried to get better, instead of easy mixing with outlaw

strange python
#

Windwalker had plenty of value for us in vault

hot goblet
#

easy moding

balmy condor
#

It doesn’t have to be binary

strange python
#

I guess

rocky ruin
#

Pure dps class have it easier bc one spec can do something, but other class with one dps spec and something else well

strange python
#

My real source of depression is that sin has been a mostly st spec forever, aberrus is finally a mostly ST raid. I want this to be like, our moment

#

But instead warlock's cleave spec is crushing.

#

Like, sin should be a top spec in aberrus

#

I'm okay with sin being "bottom" in vault because it was an add heavy tier

#

But I want the upside on the flip.

cold spoke
#

you know what they say

#

sometimes you lose, other times you lose

strange python
#

Sometimes you lose, other times you also lose? Get fucked rogues?

winter gale
#

From all the buffs we hoped for we ended up with a small nerf to tierset?

cold spoke
#

wise words

steel spire
#

why be loyal just fotm COPIUM

strange python
#

Fotm isn't even fotm

#

It's just roll warlock or warrior

winter gale
#

How big is the gap between assa and sub atm?

strange python
haughty flicker
#

Nah rogue is more often in a good spot than war

strange python
#

I don't agree with that

#

I've had that argument in here and been told I'm wrong many times, but I don't agree.

cold spoke
#

also you have 20 buttons rotation, and get outdpsed by a 3 buttons fury zug zug

winter gale
#

I think sub is way more versatile atm

royal lantern
#

wait

odd dew
royal lantern
#

assa tierset nerf and probably a sub nerf?

winter gale
#

We are pure st and we lack dmg

royal lantern
tawdry dust
cold spoke
haughty flicker
#

Warlock is certainly the class that spends the most time being meta

strange python
royal lantern
haughty flicker
#

It’s very close to neutral

strange python
#

Upwards of 1.1% buff if you use a passive trinket.

haughty flicker
#

But not exactly what you want to see

cold spoke
#

i think its in sub channel somewhere but small nerf to normal build and small buff to rotten

tawdry dust
winter gale
#

Didn’t they get 4% buff on all sources?

#

Or I missed something?

cold spoke
#

yeah after a nerf so

winter gale
#

Oh

cold spoke
#

you can tell people love their class if one side of the tree is completely hated LULW

Just check fuus pin

royal lantern

strange python
#

On the warrior front...warrior was bad in vault but quickly got massive buffs and ended the tier very very strong. Started bad in SoFo, got buffs, wound up okay. It cranked in sanctum and Nathria. Cranked in Nyalotha, and pretty good in bod/EP. Bad in uldir.

Rogue was good in vault, started strong in SoFo and fell off as edge lost value. Okay to start sanctum, but became huge with frost set change and EoN. Terrible in Nathria. Okay in nya, okay in uldir. Honestly forget BoD and EP, but memory says mid in both.

#

At best, it feels like a wash where warrior brings shout and a defensive raid CD.

odd dew
strange python
#

Could be wrong on that. Logs seem gone but that's my recollection

cold spoke
#

naah arms was cracked that tier

#

huge execute plenty cleave

strange python
#

I think warrior is sneakily OP and doesn't get enough attention to how consistently strong it is

#

Maybe cause it's meh in keys

#

Also the class requires 0 brain cells

#

I could 95 parse on warrior without hands

deft flicker
#

Two classes starting with W

royal lantern
#

shout beeing stackable and very good deffensives

strange python
#

I've mentioned it here before and got torn apart by seli and some of the big sub names.

royal lantern
#

wait, just noticed

haughty flicker
#

It’s definitely been good recently, but when people are talking about it being consistently good you normally go back further than just bfa

royal lantern
#

they removed sub stuff interaction with trinkets

#

but left it for outlaw?

haughty flicker
#

Ye

royal lantern
#

huh?

#

thats.....weird?

haughty flicker
#

Outlaw tier baby

royal lantern
#

no tier is outlaw tier

haughty flicker
#

Bacon is ours

royal lantern
#

and if they make a more st tier and then buff outlaw to be the #1 st spec

haughty flicker
#

🥓

royal lantern
#

i just alt f4 for 5months

#

cus holy shit, nobody can be so garbage at balancing

hollow river
#

imagine imagining

strange python
#

Outlaw is the warlock of rogue specs

#

Its the clear favorite of the dev team.

royal lantern
#

"assa is bad in vault cus its a cleave/aoe tier, wait for a st tier"

"st tier, but we tune assa to be the lowest st dmg"

royal lantern
strange python
#

Consistently gets the most favorable tuning and dev attention.

royal lantern
#

outlaw historicaly is the "worst" raiding spec for rogue

haughty flicker
#

Sub has definitely been the favorite

#

Outlaw wasn’t a spec for like two expansions after existing

#

Lmao

royal lantern
#

saying outlaw is blizz favorite is just insane mate lol

deft flicker
#

Can’t spell outlaw without w

strange python
#

Don't agree at all

haughty flicker
final shadow
#

Outlahhhh

royal lantern
strange python
#

Outlaw was second best in vault, way slept on in SoFo, sneakily cranked in sanctum, was the only viable spec in Nathria

deft flicker
strange python
#

Frost set made outlaw do disgusting things

deft flicker
#

We learned to count to 6 however

royal lantern
#

what is that take

#

you really live up to your name rn

strange python
#

Sub ran blood set unless getting kindred aff.

haughty flicker
#

Not to mention we’re still ignoring years worth of balancing

#

Outlaw has had some nice moments though for sure

#

Mostly in m+ tho

strange python
#

Sin was 1.1% ahead of outlaw in Sanctum and Sin was a frequent target for externals. Outlaw was not. I'd bet an ex-externals comparison would make it neck and neck.

oak tangle
#

idk how you can really call sub the favored spec, it kinda didn't exist from BFA until mid SL

hollow river
#

pretty sure sub was the preferred spec in early SL s1

strange python
#

Nope

#

People thought it would be, but it wound up horrible

hollow river
#

mmm

strange python
#

It suffered from beta hype that got it nerf blasted

earnest remnant
#

people were idiots thinking akaari's would enter the game that way

brazen zodiac
#

trickz!!!

strange python
#

And honestly sub wasn't even that good in sanctum or SoFo. Edge of night carried that spec hard.

oak tangle
#

zul killed rezan and sub

hollow river
earnest remnant
#

SoD sub early in the tier was a single target monster

#

even before daggers

#

agree with sofo tho

strange python
#

I don't remember it the same way and wcl is super fucked for old tiers

#

I remember sub being worse than sin for quite some time until edge

earnest remnant
#

rwf 2x sub rogue on guardian topping

royal lantern
vestal wren
#

sub before zul got nerfed multiple times

strange python
#

But with wcl going archive mode it's hard to tell

vestal wren
#

in bfa

strange python
#

Did they get edge from heroic/normal splits.

earnest remnant
#

no

strange python
#

Hmm

vestal wren
#

sub did initially in bfa look rly good

#

because the shadowstrike trait made sub do rly good st

strange python
#

Also there were various versions of akaaris. The one that gave CP and did 100% damage duplication was never gonna hit live

vestal wren
#

but that trait was nerfed 3 times or so

#

and zul happened

strange python
#

But there was a version giving 50% and no CP and it was valued at +13%

#

And that was reasonable to hit live in retrospect

oak tangle
#

outlaw aoe got giga nerfed because of reaping

#

lets just say there is no favored rogue spec

#

but if i had to pick it's outlaw because pirates and that's what the devs think rogues are

hollow river
#

the devs think of us as ninja

strange python
#

I mean outlaw has been either a, or the, dominant key spec for three full expansions, and in recent memory has always been at least good-ish in raid

haughty flicker
#

Outlaw is favored because it was given the biggest weapons

hollow river
#

look at our new tier set

strange python
#

Sin has been terrible in keys and hit or miss in raid

#

Sub was a deleted spec until sanctum

winter gale
#

So, gap between assa and sub is non significant atm?

hollow river
winter gale
#

Play what’s preferable?

hollow river
winter gale
#

I’ll play assa but I dont want ppl to tell me why no sub, why no law

oak tangle
#

outlaw is purely the favored spec because the devs reworked RTB to a point where it's not the main complaint

strange python
#

I think outlaw has been the obvious best rogue pve spec on the balance of m+ and raid since the start of BFA

hollow river
winter gale
#

In m+ ill play outlaw

#

For sure

pseudo hamlet
winter gale
#

Thats how I play

#

Assa raid

#

Outlaw m+

hollow river
#

ye should be fine

oak tangle
hollow river
#

i don't think anyone should be questioning your spec choice in raid atm

#

based on the current numbers

winter gale
#

Great

#

That is all I need

pseudo hamlet
#

So Assa still worst rogue spec for M+... expectable, but still kinda sad.

strange python
#

Just questioning your class choice dead

winter gale
#

Hahaha

#

Rogue or nowow

hollow river
#

you don't bring WWs for their ST?

haughty flicker
oak tangle
#

pretty sure that sin mains are gonna smoke a whole lot of FOTM demo's

as long as there's other choice

#

you'll always have some clueless people going "but why no X"

strange python
#

I didn't play legion so idk legion

haughty flicker
#

Bfa outlaw was but this season sub was best at high end

strange python
#

I said best or very good tho

haughty flicker
#

You said dominant

strange python
#

Outlaw is a dominant m+ spec right now. Sub is just better.

haughty flicker
#

Lmao

oak tangle
#

OL is target capped yeah? sub is not

strange python
#

If sub was deleted from the game entirely overnight, rogues wouldn't lose a ton of m+ representation, outlaw is very strong.

#

This is like warlocks telling you demo was bad in SoFo because destro.

#

Or something

#

Acting like outlaw isn't crazy good in DF keys because sub is even better is...odd

haughty flicker
#

Literally nobody said that

corona got us on track again regarding that

@haughty flicker tbf, rn my main thought is just "why did they adjust amps working on sub but not on outlaw"

#

like, that one is just....weird?

#

clearly they keep a eye on that thing, but then ignore it for the other spec?

#

idk, just seems strange

cobalt hemlock
#

so blizz though sub was worse than assa? i thought sub was better

#

well now it is for sure

royal lantern

it was

#

and is

#

assa is the lowest ST in the game with BM rn

if you go by the current sims and stuff

i feel like i wasnt dooming enough now kekman

royal lantern
#

cus removing trinket amps is a also a huge hit

cobalt hemlock
royal lantern
#

35-40% of subs dmg was trinket/procs

#

they removed all interactions with sub talents making trinkets/procs stronger

#

aka big nerf

#

and then buffed ability dmg by 4%

#

it evens out

#

its not a "real" buff

cobalt hemlock
#

oh

royal lantern
#

at best its 0,2-0,4% gain, if at all

grim jay
royal lantern
#

i mean yeha

#

i personaly dont like when the majority of my dmg is NOT me actually using abilitys lol

grim jay
#

yep

#

always liked trinkets that grant buffs or stats more than the damaging type

#

aswell

#

I even kinda feel bummed playing UH DK because the pets are such a huge part nowadays

#

in my head it wasnt that bad back in legion for example

#

but might just be me imagining

you know how outlaw is litearlly BALANCED around bladeflury existing?

#

like, for decades now?

#

they gave spriest bladeflury, and thats it

#

and then people act suprised why its doing stupid aoe dmg

grim jay
#

actually

#

its better implemented tbf

royal lantern
#

nah, implemented its not good

#

its just overtuned lol

#

cus there was 0 thought given how it would impact spriest

#

outlaw actually has some thought behind bladeflury

#

spriest is just "uhm, they duplicated dmg on dot targets, sounds cool right????"

grim jay
#

it feels way more natural and theme-wise right to me tbf

#

as it did before

#

dont forget they have better manual dotting aswell

bladeflury, the dot version

so it's blade flurry without pressing a button, and 2x the IC's

i'm probs playing sp

subtle tundra
#

Too bad I don't have a priest leveled

haughty flicker
#

I actually need to lvl mine before timewalking ends

oak tangle
#

and the biggest reason is so that i can also do something other than dps

#

cause like zero of my friend group can / want to play a healer

grim jay
#

but I dont want to either

#

😄

oak tangle
#

i don't but i make exception for MW and disc cause you do healing by damage

#

won't catch me speccing holy

royal lantern
#

i mean

#

"disc does dmg" is a meme anyway

#

cus disc doesnt even do the highest healer dmg lol

#

its litearlly just replacing "generic aoe healer spell"

grim jay
#

I think the only healer I'd actually play if I had to would be holy pal

oak tangle
#

i mean they can't let disc do the highest damage otherwise why would you take anything else

royal lantern
#

its just funny cus many people think disc is "dps healer"

#

when its litearlly just a normal healer

oak tangle
#

it is, but you spend less of your time targetting your allies health bars

royal lantern
#

yes, dmg abilitys healing trought atoment is a thing, but they are not doing high dmg, its just how they aoe heal lol

oak tangle
#

same thing with MW you just slap RSK and you keep people topped

#

I actively hate myself when i play disc and i have to penance an ally

haughty flicker
#

Lmao

#

Bring back ashen hallow

#

Top dps charts and aoe heal the whole group

oak tangle
#

i did play hpal in BFA when they had a budget atonement

royal lantern
oak tangle
#

it's more so tank taking massive damage angle, for the most part, your radiances can top that

#

throw out a shield and keep going

royal lantern
#

ye, my priest friend just always told me that: disc priest in m+ is a force multiplier, if the group is good, disc is good, if the group is decent or bad you dont play disc

#

and yeha

oak tangle
#

power word life is amazing and that catches the stand in bad

I wish I could play my arcane mage as an alt, but mage has that one talent thats triggering me the most in DF

the amount of time they sit at like 40% askign for heals and i respond, yeah i'm waiting for you to go below 35

deft flicker
oak tangle
#

that's the fun part of m+ tbh, where you know they wont die if they do the right thing so you don't top them

#

they panicking and actually using defensives

#

and you're just laughing

deft flicker
#

Defensives are there to be used

grim jay
#

I actually dont know how you can bind a strong capstone talent to the usage of a spell that you dont even decide alone most of the time and want at specific points

#

if you could just make it a separate button

oak tangle
grim jay
oak tangle
#

yeah for sure

deft flicker
#

Just use time anomaly Surebud

grim jay
#

thats like bigtime worse

#

iirc

deft flicker
#

(ig it sucks though)

oak tangle
#

just send lust on pull and say whoops i fat fingered it

#

every

#

time

grim jay
#

I dont think you'll get many pulls in that way

#

guess that would work in m+ tho

oak tangle
#

m+ is good cause it's about total uptime mostly

grim jay
#

yeah its way less of an issue there

oak tangle
#

they literally just need to have a item that works like the neral dampener, but stops your stuff applying to others

royal lantern
#

many wow players always play like "need to hold for boss"

#

instead of just USING THEM

#

dps that never use cd's on trash, healers that never use healing cd's, tanks that dont use deff cd's

#

its insane

deft flicker
#

Yeah

haughty flicker
#

When I first started playing wow I had that issue

oak tangle
#

but i can't barrier on first pack in HoV because i'll need it for skovald

haughty flicker
#

Got told I was shit pretty quickly though

royal lantern
#

i remember when DF launched, and the bigbrain place, aka reddit was FULL with stuff like "healers, are dungeons overtuned now??? i need to use my healing cd's every 2nd trashpack"

#

and im there like

#

YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT YOU BRAINLET??????

legit most fun healer

haughty flicker
#

Apotheosis is fun

royal lantern
oak tangle
#

i don't hate it, but never bothered to learn it, cause i don't wanna play whack-a-mole with hp bars and not interact with dungeon mobs

royal lantern
#

i mean, the nerf is "we dont want class stuff to interact with trinkets/effects" and assa 4set was 1 of those things

oak tangle
#

technically a bug fix yeah

royal lantern
#

and idk why they didnt change anything for outlaw when they said that, but yeha

queen pulsar
#

Which trinket were nature dmg

deft flicker
#

I tried holy, and something felt odd. Most likely keybind trouble (my first healer, so button placement was awkward)

royal lantern
#

technically its just a bugfix/change for consistancy, but also results int a small dps lost for the 2nd worst ST dmg spec in the game that can only do ST dmg and nothing else 🙂

oak tangle

🥓

royal lantern
fallen raven

the toxic embellishments as well, right?

oak tangle

also it makes flowstone not even considered

Well, I suppose that assa being good in pvp is fine enough for blizzard to ignore our pain

oak tangle

is it though?

no one here knows

iirc, assa is not even good anymore in pvp lol

Just pressed 3 letters randomly idk either

like, got nerfed hard there AND the cc changes for pvp fuck rogue in general harder than everyone else

+the ussual PVP LMAO

queen pulsar

I had hopes that after s1 being low tier spec in m+ they would have made something to sin for s2

#

But I suppose. It is too late now

royal lantern

it wasnt just low for m+

#

it was low everything kekman

drifting cosmos

Don’t think sin has any high tier since BFA

royal lantern

queen pulsar

tho

and ideal comps always are a thing

queen pulsar
#

True but to be honest while in sub difference from top 1 to top 2 is like 10 rio and in sin difference from top 1 and top 2 is like 300 rio

#

It is kinda weird

royal lantern
earnest citrus
#

Wasn't sub already better? Or how does sub perform? I saw they buffed it today. Was hoping for a Sin buff :(

royal lantern
#

sub is better

#

but also not good

#

and yeha

#

assa is in dire need of help, and gets nothing, enjoy

earnest citrus
#

That is so sad.... I really love assa, it is the most rogue spec in my opinion. Although sub is also pretty close.

earnest citrus
balmy condor
#

no

earnest citrus
#

I mean rogue has advantages like being very tanky and stuff, but purely damage wise?

royal lantern
#

no

#

all ranged stomp on melee

#

and rogue is the bottom half of melee

#

thats the current raid balancing in numbers

cold spoke
#

rogue is tanky, so is dk

#

sadly its not cataclysm anymore

earnest citrus
#

well, true...

#

did not inspect the raid fights a lot, are they at least favorable for (sin) rogue in their design?

royal lantern
#

no

#

the raid looks bad for melee overall

#

many downtime mechanics

earnest citrus
#

seems like the perfect season to play sin/rogue, nice /s

royal lantern
#

what

earnest citrus
#

surely we gonna get huge buffs soon

royal lantern
#

oh yeha sarcasm

#

thought you bring up the bigbrain "assa less punished by downtimes, im smort" comment, sorry dracthyr_kek

haughty flicker
#

True just put on your poisons and walk away

#

Downtime doesn’t even matter

royal lantern
haughty flicker
#

ez sin gaming

royal lantern
#

not like as if downtimes also fuck you hard

#

what, stacking amp poison?

#

poison procs with hits?

#

nononono

#

that HUGE garrote+rupture dmg makes all downtimes not matter

#

you still do insane 4 digit numbers every 2 seconds

earnest citrus
#

Sad when melees are kinda week compared to ranged, since they just have advantages apart from damage, too.

haughty flicker
#

Dot spec btw

grim jay
#

even if you cant blame them if they still have fun

royal lantern
#

i mean, for rogue its also a bit like

why play assa in m+ for more work and less results

#

when you can play sub and turn your brain off

#

and do more dmg

#

and be better at mechanics

#

and actually have a soothe

#

and can do things like fenryr vanish

earnest citrus
#

Fun? Isn't that why we play this game kekdog

royal lantern
#

tbf, fun goes a bit down the gutter when you sweat your ass off for low results

grim jay
#

never even once took someone rogue seriously into consideration for a soothe

earnest citrus
#

True, playing meta is fun. I am kinda of a fotm I have to admit.

royal lantern
grim jay
#

cant blame anyone for being fotm

#

tho I still prefer to not have them in my groups

#

no matter if raiding or dungeons

cold spoke
#

i mean does it matter if youre fotm or not

#

for me its the fact that rogue doesnt rly feel nice at all to play, yet alone damage

#

id rather be mid pack with nice rotation and spec flow over being s+ tier with absolute dog playstyle

#

but somehow its both negatives combined LULW

grim jay
#

it does

#

atleast from experience

#

if there isnt a giant gap between the specs of the players you choose from, the non-fotms are often the better picks

winged veldt
#

Yea cuz they usually been on their toon longer tbh. Fotm is missing part of the spec that makes it, all the small shit that means the world. Also drawn into it with not much brain power left over for mechanics lol

grim jay
#

I have that one guy in my guild that switches classes like other people their underwear and he is a good player mostly, but you can see a night and day difference between something he plays most of the time and his fotm rolls/alts

#

most people cant even play a whole class, even if its 2/3 dps specs, on a high level. you will always see them lacking on one or the other

#

not to mention multiple classes

#

thats just how it is

winter gale
#

I have huge difference in lvl on skill between 3 rogue specs

And I have 350 days on it

lavish hazel
#

i ahve to take off lariat ?

use gear compare?

#

and add a neck?

oak tangle
#

the BiS atm is not a lariat, but that is also atm and the bis seems to be having addendums every day / tuning patch

#

but by the time you have the spark to spend on something other than a dagger i'm sure that stuff will be worked out

the only thing it hit was our tier bonus

and we weren't playing around it for trinkets to begin with

good to know ty

balmy condor

the vers change to embellishments actually gave us about 0.6%

uhhhhhhhhhhh

so bad nerfs buffs us

but like

it's pretty okay

we basically stayed equal through all of the whitelisting and all that

now we just need another 3-4% buff to be more competitive

we need more than that Smile_Dog

maybe 135k

#

i think they did new commits to the simcraft website

highest sim is 140.4

so 134-135k seems like a good ballpark to end at

subtle tundra

and then make us do st in m+

Yea I just wanna be middle of the pack in hopes to be left the fuck alone unless they gonna do a rework lol

and then make us do aoe in m+
