Talking about DF. As Outlaw if you use cheap while in dance/subterfuge, you're trolling. Unless that cheap shot is going to save yourself/another from getting 1 shot by a cast, I think that's the only time it's really acceptable. Or if it's like a heal cast ig.

#

Bruh if ur going to cheap shot as OL you'd use vanish

oak tangle
#

why would you be considering using it if not for that reason

near valley
#

But also I don't think any sane person cheap shots in pve content

oak sky
#

Its pretty unlikely you ever need it

spice surge
#

Never in raid, very rarely in certain m+ keys

oak sky
#

But like if i was in stealth and there was a mob casting and no kicks up and somehow i had no other stops

silk bane
oak sky
#

Its definitely omega rare

spice surge
#

Like temple or academy on scary fortified weeks you might stop some casts when your tank has run out of cds

Especially with gouge

gouge on r is meta

Yeah and pugging places like TJS is aids, and you can't trust anyone to do anything so you use literally all of your stops within 10-15 seconds

Ofc ofc

More uptime indeed

Tbf I like playing sin at times

#

Sometimes I just want to be able to change my Spotify playlist mid fight

#

Without dropping damage

oak tangle
#

you guys remember the anxiety feeling before a test where you didn't study... i got that because im swapping to spriest and still dont know how to play it

near valley
#

Completely out there question but how busted would having access to both DTB and Kingabane be?

drifting cloud
#

insanely

spice spire
#

There’s a reason they aren’t kekdog

near valley
#

What's the interaction that causes it to be so giga?

#

It's peak learning hours

KB gets stronger for each poison proc within its duration

#

DtB doubles the procs

#

an exponential increase would imply that the stacks multiply the current tick damage of kingsbane, which would cause the stacks to multiply each other, but that isn't the case because the stacks modify the base damage, making the stack count a linear increase

balmy condor
#

dtb would just double the stacks by 2

balmy condor
#

so

#

imagine if kingsbane had 40% per stack

#

that's essentially DTB

balmy condor
#

outlaw is looking like the least shit

boreal valley
#

Yeah those ones

balmy condor
#

but like

boreal valley
#

Outlaw ST is so miserable to play

balmy condor
#

it's still shit

#

so

#

you're looking at like a pound of shit, or slightly less than a pound of shit

boreal valley
#

nah I'm looking at main swapping to Enhance

gusty mirage
#

hope you enjoy the gamba build

balmy condor
#

that's the correct answer tbh

boreal valley
gloomy knoll
#

Keep it gamba

gusty mirage
#

their 138k is gamba

boreal valley
#

yeah but idc about that specific sim

#

IDK, I'll prolly stay rogue for atro and just deal with it, was fun last tier

balmy condor
#

so

#

how bout that

boreal valley
#

Outlaw ST is depressing to play though

gusty mirage
#

your jobs offer a 401k?

balmy condor
#

no

#

that's why it's empty

gusty mirage
#

open an IRA

balmy condor

I don’t like the er either brother

glad ferry
gloomy knoll
#

Oh now I remember why I came here

#

What’s this 138 gamba bullshit

balmy condor
#

think of gloomblade like envenom, but also like mutilate, and also like shiv

glad ferry
#

One of my biggest question is

balmy condor
#

and then think of gloomblade like deathmark

#

and also vanish

#

and just think of gloomblade

glad ferry
#

when do I vanish during rotation not opener and do I use it on Ambush 100% of the time or do I want to garrote sometimes?

balmy condor
#

you always use it on garrote

#

and you should sync it with deathmark

glad ferry
#

vanish then deathmark or deathmark then vanish?

balmy condor
#

every 2 min it's vanish->gar->deathmark

#

I mean

#

you can do either

#

it doesn't matter

#

but for the sake of argument lets say before

drifting cloud
balmy condor
#

because then every 4 minutes you vanish -> gar -> exsang -> deathmark

#

could also become enlightened and simply refuse to play exsang

#

like a true gigachad

#

and then literally nothing you press matters

#

just use things when they come up

#

very based

drifting cloud
#

yesterday whispyr I found out

#

I was specced wrong when im not playing exsang

balmy condor
#

what, did you do double shiv or some cursed shit

drifting cloud
#

I just had the point in imp poisons past 5months

balmy condor
#

yeah

drifting cloud
#

or is that only a thing now?

balmy condor
#

that's what you're supposed to do

drifting cloud
#

on your link for 10.1 its not

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

welcome to the future old man

drifting cloud
#

oh so its because of the buffs

balmy condor
#

buffs and tier

drifting cloud
#

well I simmed it on my gear was +300 !

balmy condor
#

!

#

idk

#

whack

#

imp poison good

#

you did good

#

no problems detected

#

I'm like your dying computers antivirus

#

nothing to see here

drifting cloud
#

would have been more funny if I played wrong talent for 5months

loud oyster
#

so until tier, run imp poison 2/2?

drifting cloud
#

no its just the non-exsang build

loud oyster
#

ah

glad ferry
#

Is my 2nd exsang supposed to line up with death mark?

drifting cloud
#

most of the time yes, but depends on kill timers

glad ferry
#

Then I'm doing something wrong.

balmy condor
#

you're not able to hold exsang for a minute

#

?

glad ferry
#

Oh so I need to hold it

#

thats what

#

xd

balmy condor
#

deathmark 2 min

#

exsang 3 min

#

hold exsang

#

now exsang 4 min

#

2+2 = 4

glad ferry
#

ah I see

balmy condor
#

quik mafs

glad ferry
#

2 + 2 is 4

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

it's high level theorycrafting stuff we do around here

glad ferry
#

any reason why assassin is gonna be A tier next tier ?

balmy condor
#

because said individual is a clueless idiot

glad ferry
#

It was a dratnos tier list xd

balmy condor
#

it might end up A tier

#

after like

spice spire
balmy condor
#

3 buffs

drifting cloud
#

I bet only 2 buffs would be enough!

balmy condor
#

but they're actually just full on clueless if they think it's A tier right now

tettles saying 20% shiv buff is big

#

and it's +50 dps

#

pog

glad ferry
#

thats why im kinda just

#

trying to learn

blazing jewel
#

chicken brain

balmy condor
#

dratnos in 9.3 saying that our tier bonus is 100% increase during burst

#

and it wasn't

#

sour hare
#

I was curious why in the guide, Slimy Expulsion Boots (Mast/Vers reduces Haste) is recommended over Toxic Thorn Footwraps (Haste/Crit reduces Stam) when they both do the same damage and have same proc rate. It just seems to me the stats from the Thorn Footwraps is better.

drifting cloud
balmy condor
#

neither one of them returning my DM's

#

because they don't want to handle the truth

aight this says enough i just thought i was bad

glad ferry

but

undone summit
#

Anyone has a link to the tettles video ?

glad ferry
#

nvm its jsut assassin thats not so great

sour hare
#

ah, gotcha. So the two embellishments recommended are Slimy Boots and toxic patch?

cursive dagger
#

looks like it

sour hare
#

If we're using Toxic Patch, wouldn't the Spore Colony Shoulderguards be the better choice for the other? It seems like it does more per minute than the Slimy Boots.

#

or when it triggers the immediate decay, does that not damage the enemy and just eats the procs?

balmy condor
#

spore shoulders suck

#

because the stacks don't build during the dot

sour hare
#

do they? The description sounds really good, but I know sometimes they work differently in practice

#

ah, gotcha

balmy condor
#

your first mistake was trusting tooltips in this game

#

rookie move

#

"it says it does the same damage"

sour hare
#

lol, that's why I thought I'd ask

#

I know they can be misleading

balmy condor
#

the day a tooltip in wow says exactly what it does

near valley
#

Idk what your on about Whispyr

balmy condor
#

I will eat a shoe

near valley
#

All rogue specs are A tier

#

A for Atrophic that is

balmy condor
#

weird way to spell atrocious

#

but I'll accept it

oak sky
#

Better be happy spore shoulders arent bis

#

Less restrictive for tier

#

We up never been down

whole mason
#

I got it. Rogue class is actually promoted to buff class for DR. Like one Mage for int, damage no longer matters.

oak sky
#

Thats not how the game works

whole mason
#

Compared to ww for physical buff, rogue's ST is actually high enough for A.

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

you got something alright

#

it ain't "it"

#

but you're getting there

whole mason

Lots of "it"s towards the truth

I really prefer assassination but its tough in M+. Prob better to not look bad in raid

timid haven

So what would should we craft for the toxic patch?

timid haven
#

so any crafted piece i gather from that. its not specific

balmy condor
#

You put it on whatever off piece

#

Probably bracer

timid haven
#

ya thats what i was thnkn

balmy condor

Kinda whatever life bound thing you got

#

There’s a 450 belt from end boss that’s an upgrade

timid haven

i dont have any atm

if you have a tank that you reguarly play with, they will LOVE you for ironwire IC lol

#

its litearlly "everything gets grouped+tank external"

ill say the reason i stick with sin, is because no other spec feels better than when you play it right

and it was 3min for HOW LONG OMEGAKEKW

only cd worse than shadowblades in aoe is deathmark

~132

#

Sad

#

I would understand 1/3 spec to be lower/lowest

#

But all 3 to be underperforming

#

I guess they will tune stuff on week 1 or 2

clever sapphire
#

they will nerf rogue again because we do too much dmg on heroic week 🤣

#

i have the perfect plan, everyone plays with kingsbane, so blizzard sees how dogshit it is, and then they still ignore us on patch notes, but promise kingsbane buffs

#

surely we will be top ST spec 10.3

does 2set rupture doubledip with AP?

of course

Just like the dwarves dug too deep in moria, or i dug too deep into my nose when i was 7, you're playing a dangerous game with this... Thing.

balmy condor
#

I mean it's not really a double dip

#

AP increases bleed damage

#

more bleed = more nature

royal lantern

and shiv increases nature dmg

#

thats what i mean

balmy condor

yeah of course

i mean, somewhat cool i gues?

So why don’t you spam it

balmy condor

because why would you

carmine dawn
#

When it’s up

royal lantern
#

why would you

#

it has 3charges

carmine dawn
#

Because it’s more dps

balmy condor
#

so you don't have charges when an add spawns?

#

cringe

balmy condor
royal lantern
#

just use the charges up when fight is about to end, or use for adds

carmine dawn
#

Right so that’s my question

balmy condor
#

you end on 0 charges

in every situation

carmine dawn

Ok

Now I see

you use spike when you have no energy for mutilate

psure this build will suck compared to any IC build

grim jay
marble hemlock
#

when pulls arent capped at 5 or 6 targets

#

but go to 10+

balmy condor
#

it's -2.5% in dslice

marble hemlock
#

yeah but whats the largest pull in dslice?

#

7?

balmy condor
#

9

#

technically higher if you count chains

marble hemlock
#

okay and that happens how often? once per 2-3 iterations?

balmy condor
#

I can check I think

#

maybe

#

hold on

marble hemlock
#

idk the distribution of pulls, but when i last checked (granted,that was 2months ago) it was largely 3-6t

#

which is kinda prime territory for AP, obviously

#

but when you do smth like an azure vault, or in new season, brackenhide or nelth, you dont do baby pulls

#

and ic silence is still very good for grouping up packs, which is dps increase for entire grp

signal badger
#

Is the nature damage from ct going to tick as well if it’s spammed in aoe?

royal lantern
#

IC+Iron wire is so mad undervalued man

grouping everything+tank external every 45sec on a pull is not bad lol

This is beautiful whispyr. Is exsang a hard req though?

marble hemlock

this wont be competitive

balmy condor
#

yeah but if you're not overcapping

#

no damage lost

marble hemlock
#

same as ic assa isnt competitive

#

not in the sense that most people think of in terms of "competitive"

#

i was competitive with assa in first 3-4weeks of DF, didnt mean i couldnt have done better if i played sub

balmy condor
#

you're just a hater hater masterbater seli

marble hemlock
#

i mean i applaud your efforts, you know that

clever sapphire
marble hemlock
#

i just dont see how itll hold up in dungeons where you consistently go big

#

assa was very good in certain dungeons

#

azure vault probably the best one

#

but you also need a tank who is skilled enough to know how to chain like a god

shut owl

There were some thundering hero sin players. Just don't expect to be invited to pugs

Might be once in a blue moon someone comments on it

#

I’ve only had one person actually kick me when I joined and that was when I was gearing up LOL

clever sapphire
storm belfry
#

Yeah well

#

Those ppl are saving you

#

From a shit time

#

And that’s when you just do your own key man

marble hemlock
#

why do your own key when you can apply for keys 4levels higher, not get invited due to bad score, blame spec tuning and then cry about it. not saying that thats anybody in here specifically, but thats the majority of the community

storm belfry
#

Yep

shut owl
#

I've been complained at/kicked many times in 20s. People at large enjoy shoving their head into feedbags with regards to "t h e m e t a"

arctic current
#

It feels like 95% of tanks have no clue what IC and ironwire does

storm belfry
#

Everytime I have told someone in the past about doing their own key they make another excuse

clever sapphire
#

tbh i dont think i ever got kicked for playing assa, but i got kicked twice from AA because i was specced into outlaw and not sub brainlag

storm belfry
#

I did a 23 AA last night

#

And it was fun

royal lantern
storm belfry
#

The key I did get kicked from while gearing was an AA tho. Iirc it was just a damn 13. This was months ago

shut owl
#

My guild gave up on our drunk 23aa XD
We did it every wrong way and said yeah let's go again, then got beat by router boss on 22

storm belfry
#

They invited an outlaw then he made a comment and they kicked me

shrewd night
#

This is why I have three different friendgroups I can run keys with. I never have to struggle with "why you non-meta spec" shit ever

storm belfry
marble hemlock
#

majority of issues that people encounter while playing m+ or trying to push score, have virtually nothing to do with class tuning, and are solely self-made problems due to not putting in the effort thats actually required to succeed at pushing m+

#

i.e. building a network of friends

marble hemlock
#

using m+ friends discord

#

playing with the same people

clever sapphire

wait wow isnt a single player game

@clever sapphire are you a furry? important question

The only folks in my social circles running keys think they are MDI at 2200, and I haven't gotten a single ping back from .io
Seli how do I social

storm belfry
#

I’ve just had ppl add me

marble hemlock
#

i also simply dont believe that the "got invited, they saw i play assa, kicked again" happens nearly as often as people claim. im 99% certain that its actually jhust "didnt get invited when i applied" moments, which have absolutely nothing to do with the spec you play, and everything to do with how the grpleader has to choose from 20+ applicants and obviously hes gonna take the one who looks the most promising. thats not a judgment on how good/bad your spec is.

storm belfry
#

And I get invited sometimes

clever sapphire
#

and have a vulpera enhancer

marble hemlock
#

all viable choices

storm belfry
#

Yeah I mean I agree. I know they say everyone’s experience is different but I do a shit load of keys and it’s only happened to me one time

And it was on a key level where it legit didn’t matter at all lmao

what people dont seem to understand, is that m+ score is a grind. you dont sign up to a key and gain score. you do it over the course of weeks if not months, get better at the game, and that will naturally improve your score.

Speaking of boosts I’ve made quite a bit of gold recently evilKEK

shut owl
#

Could also be getting kicked for reasons beyond gameplay but i like to not think about those in my escaping from irl nonsense

brazen lantern
# marble hemlock wdym?

With tyr/fort separate score it feels like you need to play every week or you are behind on score

marble hemlock
#

yeah

#

thats... good?

#

do you play to get score or do you play to actually get better at the game/m+?

#

maybe youre playing for the wrong reasons and its holding you back

winged veldt
#

I’m a 3k Andy. We have a few in guild at 3300 I’m sure I could learn from to improve too.

storm belfry
#

Same

marble hemlock
#

maybe if people stopped giving a shit about their score and just played for fun and the social aspects of it, theyd gain more score automatically

brazen lantern
#

I would rather just play every week cause i can/want, not cause i have to

storm belfry
#

I always play for fun

marble hemlock
#

so how does the 2week cycle affect you if you wanna play every week anyway?

clever sapphire
#

well i got to 2.7k got bored and stopped really playing m+. Did a 25 court yesterday with 10 min overtime, and i was wondering how people do these keys, second boss was freaking melting the group

marble hemlock
#

i dont understand

grim jay
marble hemlock
#

i mean, its not like finding out how many people play m+ in a guild is a dark and hidden secret. you go to raider.io and you find out how many people in a guild play m+ before you apply

brazen lantern
marble hemlock
#

thats such a cheap excuse

#

the entire point of building a network is that your score doesnt matter

brazen lantern
#

It happened to me every season idk

terse orchid
storm belfry
#

Don’t think 100 score puts you that far behind

marble hemlock
#

i havent played since january, i still got asked for keys in the last few weeks

winged veldt
#

Nah m+ way more fun when people don’t flip shit over the little shit. When you deplete and hear “all good we go next” that’s the best tbh

brazen lantern
#

I play a lot early, having a blast, then skip 1-2 week of pushing and suddenly only have scoreobsessed ppl in pugs

marble hemlock
#

so

#

why do you pug

shut owl
marble hemlock
#

the entire point im trying to make, is that you want to move on from pugging sooner or later

shut owl
#

Actual words from our feral trying resto in a 22

burnt star
brazen lantern
shut owl
#

Scaling of some things healing wise felt really weird with the 25% shift

marble hemlock
#

and then you come back and say "hi wanna play" and 2/5 may so no, but the rest says "sure"

#

whats the problem exactly?

burnt star
#

Ya. U need to burn her faster then she can burn u

clever sapphire
marble hemlock
#

maybe 4/5 say no. thats still 1 player you found

grim jay
marble hemlock
#

if your network isnt just 10 people

#

you still have no struggle finding a grp to play with

storm belfry
marble hemlock
#

like i said. its a grind

storm belfry
#

Not that big

marble hemlock
#

my m+ friendslist is about 120 people

#

ofc most of them will be in grps already or busy

#

but the ones that arent are up to game

shut owl
#

I mean; it felt real bad on quaking moreso, where it felt more spikey that before

marble hemlock
#

maybe they dont wanna push score upgrades immediately, but even if they were, it wouldnt work anyway right

clever sapphire
winged veldt
#

Brb adding seliathan now!

marble hemlock
#

people just want the quick fix to their score and as a result they party with terrible people and create their own problems

brazen lantern
#

Maybe i just got too comfortable as soon as i have 4 others we play back to back weeks

marble hemlock
#

ye

#

and then when you leave that grp you join others, cause word gets around

#

you wont have the same success, and that can be demotivating

#

i dont like pugging anymore cuz most tanks annoy me, because none of them are as good as fem and it makes me wanna cry

hollow river
#

Play well in pugs and find good players to add to bnet

marble hemlock
#

MDI takes away too many good players sad

clever sapphire
brazen lantern
#

At least had tried 1 meme tournament for speedruns and when the route and pulls finally fit together its insane

#

At least i enjoyed it more than week 10 of pushing

marble hemlock
#

but ye idk, people are just lazy. i can empathize. i was lazy too in legion. i played up keys with people and then i was ditched because "sorry we want sub rogue" even though i was smoking most of them anyway.

so i was depressed for a while "nobody wants to play with me" until a good friend asked me "well, how often do you reach out to others to ask them if they wanna play" and i realized i didnt really do that, i was jus sitting on my ass waiting to get invited. obviously that didnt happen.

once i became more pro-active about it, and started adding people, i found a bunch of cool people to play with, and after a few more months, i was pushing #1 keys with my boy sebbe. was a lot of work, but the success in game and the friendships i built were 1000% worth it

storm belfry
#

Seli, a true success story

clever sapphire
brazen lantern
#

Nah you dont speedrun live

marble hemlock
#

you also have to take chances on people

#

in early bfa when our dk tank quit, we needed a new tank

#

so jay suggested this kinda unknown but decently high scored brewmaster. brew was kinda dogshit in s1 of bfa, but we said "sure, why not". that person was andybrew.

#

turns out the man was a baller

brazen lantern
marble hemlock
#

yeah, thats fair. tbf, tanks have kind of a "rockstar" position in most m+ groups, cuz everybody always wants to play with a good tank

#

many of them develop an obnoxious ego as a result

#

the ones that dont, are absolute keepers

brazen lantern
#

If you look at it from that pov tho, if you do basicly everything and you wipe cause your mage who has 0 jobs outside of doing dmg, misses a kick

#

Thats very tilting

marble hemlock
#

but ye, being a "career" m+ player aint like raiding, and by career i mean someone who just plays m+ all year round.
you can just apply to a new guild and start blasting your first raid and stick with them for years, m+ doesnt work like that.

M+ groups fall apart regularly, or someone quits and you need to work another person into your grp, but the more sociable and likable you are, the easier it is to find groups consistently and be able to play the game without sitting in LFD or trying to find someone to play with for hours on end

#

but its a lot of work, itll have upsides and downsides. but at least, even if your score still sucks, you made a lot of friends along the way, and those dont reset every season.

royal lantern
brazen lantern
#

Seli, do you think depletion is good for the game?

marble hemlock
#

ofc

#

youll deplete the majority of your keys. people gotta get used to it

#

im guessing a majority of people didnt play when you could just leave a m+ key, and it wouldnt downgrade a keylevel, youd just not get loot at the end. it was the most degenerate pushing imaginable, and im really fucking glad they got rid of that

brazen lantern
#

I think it gates too much. People rather sit 2 hours in lfg to find someone overqualified than to just give a chance to someone who might as well be good enough
