dopamine go up
then suddenly belf is fine
not a lot of tauren rogues squeezing out that last 100dps
That sweet sweet 1% crit chance
people just want to feel like their choice matters, and they'll justify it no matter what
well 1% crit is nothing to scoff at
their choice doesnt matter if it consists of turning ugly
and we all know a good lookin rogue is better than a tauren/dwarf rogue
Talent trees before the after talents trees
i've been tempted to swap dwarf with how many uldaman's i scuffed last week
delete racials
And with essence I go for mastery buff?
Just don't wear cloak, cause i can't survive any bleed 🥲
sim the different options, if you're using corrupting rage then probably? if you're using vers then maybe crit?
probably depends
like 80% of the time it's mastery
19% of the time it's haste
and 1% of the time their character is giga scuffed
Low high key miss legion weapons and their powers as they were
yeah they were cool
i mean we have most of the passives in some form just in our tree now
Half our talent trees are just set bonuses from previous tiers and legendary items
i would like my deathmark to also do 1m damage plz ty
Considering how they've made the talent tree
I won't be shocked if that returns. maybe next expansion when they add another row
assa spell book is so funny to look at 😄
Is something new confirmed for us in upcoming patch or we are postponed?
looking postponed
Assa rework is like my monday morning alarm
even if they announced somethin this week that wouldn't really be enough time for testing/feedback
But I dont mind, some1 needs to kill the boss as well 😂
and it would be turbo scuffed
I always get the PTR patchnotes delivered directly into my dms no less than 2 dozen times when I wake up on wednesday and I just see "NO ROGUE CHANGES?????????????" every time I open another dm
ill add to that list
whispyr nerf rogue
need to ask joe biden what his position is on rogue rework
people who are mad at no rogue changes didnt play rogue in SL 
Don't, you'll make him fall 🥲
I raided on outlaw SL season 1 until doomblade came out 
truely cursed times for assas
remember when we were told we would get raid utility in the 9.0.5 patch interviews? 
have you seen our atrophic poison
we're poppin off 
don't look at ret aura, rogue has raid buff 
I'm considering numbing on sark tbh
i have swapped between random / no non-lethal poisons
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
and no one has noticed for 1.5 tiers
just for science
to see if anyone would notice
not for like.. any meaningful amount of time
but if there's a missing druid buff
cancel the damn pull
defcon 4, scramble the jets
I was told to tricks adds in p2 sark cause devoker got aggro
didn't tricks
"thanks that was much better"
np mate



gotta have that sap for raid
my 15k fok hit is the difference for sure
very important
Mindgames isn’t a priest talent ? 
normally nimble fingers is on master poisoneer so i need blackjack
At least take nightstalker or whatever it's called for the movement speed instead of sap
Why not 3.6% atro??
cuz i was chuggin my juice and rippin feint like they were gettin discontinued on rashok prog
free juice box is best juice box
Makes sense yea
if your raid leader can't tell a 3% difference
they're not gonna tell a 3.6% difference
and that extra .6% ain't gonna save our mage floating 2 stacks of debuff and getting a lava bukkake every wave set
shmeeps when rashok ded
last satruday 
oh pog
classic
barely scrapped a purple parse 
that was my nelth kill
you just don't wanna to Zskarn
cuz we're a little behind
well yes also that
43 pulls on sunday, seems managable but miserable
big no fun
I know hall of fame guilds that are contemplating buying a skip from like liquid or whoever until they have the skip themselves, just to avoid zskarn reprog
@balmy condor you're lucky you guys killed it while still cheesable
it's so horrible right now
I mean to be fair, i think good guilds would have just smoked the dps check
so I hear
maybe a few of the guilds that like giga cheesed it
with 14 tanks or w/e tf people were doin
new zskarn has less health than kazzara

150 wipes of pure misery on zskarn
xd twice as long as kills now
jesus x_x
this is illegal
the extra annoying part about the new mini traps in the safe zones
is that they're kind of right where u wanna hide with lines
i still cant get over the fact the guy who designed the boss killed it with chesse most likely extended himself and then made it absolute cancer for the rest of us
and i always get booped against the wall and slide into htem
didn't actually, they killed, recleared, did 3 pulls on zskarn, and then haven't raided for a week and a half
LOL

hes like "let me nerf the boss more before we come back to it but the higher ups wont allow me just yet" xd
his guild was probably shitting on him ruining their prog
"we're not fuckin raiding until you fix this you mfer"

why would you not extend that
im stuck with blue zskarn until end of prog 😐
they didn't trust the 2 target assas pump on experiemtns?
and the hole in the middle

nah they killed on a day I couldn't make it
imagine boss dying as you are 0.5 away from finishing beacon cast
ah
i would take a 0 to not do that boss anymore
experiments kind of aids too tbf
SLG spell queuing
holding damage
"don't phase until 2nd bleed finishes or we're fucked"
o look someone's pet chewed on the bosses angle i guess we get extra bombs now
and that third guy will sometimes just deep breath instantly when he spawns woohooo
i should reinstall mushroom
how is new update
big
each one of the level 200+ zones is dailies + mini game
but now mini game is weekly
took the time required to do all 6 zones down from like an hour 20 to maybe 20 min
very big
oo that is handy
event itself kinda meh
but it's timegated
and new class hasn't released yet
so kinda just chillin with that

Does the back from Sark worth it in compare to 447 back?
it's more damage ye
Raid leaders don't understand experiments lol
You don't need to hold damage
You never did
HC back? It sims higher than mine 447ilvl crit/mast one
but an extra bomb set during prog was a big pain in the ass
or at a different timing
I think that he chest is the best option here. Especially knowing that I will be able to upgrade it to 447(?)
All you do is focus the 2nd guy instead of cleaving off the first boss
It kills him faster so it's still only 5 bombs
Let a few more bleeds go out it's piss lol
Legit half the classes can avoid or remove
it doesn't brick the fight but it's a huge pain in the ass to plan timings and raid CDs around one set of abilities
One extra bomb will often brick you
then just run into a completely different timing
2 more sets of bleeds? No one cares
Why are people discussing actual things here rn? I was anticipating a hefty load of dooming with the patch announcement and "no changes" 
right but in prog you don't always get the fast timing
or can't get it
or whatever
it's hotdog water design that everyone's hated for years
just because it's on an early boss that you can just suffer through doesn't make it good
Does anyone here knows, can I by any chance see how many ppl my beam killed on zskarn?
In logs*
can go to replay and watch it
or find the time the beam went off on you and see who died to the beam hit
Yeah
breaks down and cries
Think that’s a spark 


He’s down cataclysmicly
is the annulet nerfed now or .5
.5
👍
Wait! You can get a spark from Vault?
half
I was wondering if I should get the first chest and then upgrade it to 447:
Have them already on 447
Yeah the only thing that could've been an upgrade is chest... but I'd have to wait till 10.1.5 to upgrade it to 447 
There are so many upgrades for us rn 
i've got like 6 pieces on hopefully future myth track
Day 900 of asking for sark cape
guildies trying to convince me M+ is more fun than D4, because i said i'm behind on aspect crest

at this point i'm sure Bomb dispenser is just a meme, it only exist on the loot pages but actually as 0% drop, and it was made to bait theorycrafters
you're clearing backwards? 
lfr
Rashok prog tonight 
LFR this week is gonna be 70000 evokers trying to luck into a leggo
my run had enough for 2 groups
man i cant wait to kill Rashok and discover that Blizzard outdone themselves in term of horrible mythic boss with Zskarn
I think you can wait
i want to kill M Zskarn just to be disappointed that he still doesn't drop the trinket
so next time i see my therapist and he ask me why i'm feeling so depressed, i can just show him the kill video and the clear absence of bomb dispenser
just need 2 more crests to craft my toxic patch gear, so i can justify spending all my time having fun on Diablo again
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
Dunno about you but I can always justify doing something that is more fun to me rather than something I seemingly dislike

oh yeah, i'm just memeing, my officers dont give a shit
i'm always on time for raid, do good dps, and do mechanics
so they don't care if i slack on m+ and have fun on other games instead
it's a guild, not a jail
He will die tonight for my guild
I was sarcastically being told that we will kill it once I stop killing ppl with beam. If I move to side with my beam and leave that middle clean, I dunno what else I can do.
Mark of Dargrul is simtrap right?
our paltank was still stuck with 3P, we ran heroic, our warrior got mindcontrolled 3 times on Neltha, 3 times i did a full CC chain on him 
not a simtrap, it's just bad
it was for wrong discord lol but ty for reply
i mean if it's simming higher than whatever you have then i guess toss it on
he doesn't like simtraps?
only regular traps

uh oh
"simtrap" is just a braindead term
Whispyr, get back to bed
hi guys, how much haste is optimal for assassins
I wouldnt go any lower than 69%
0%, just aim for highest ilvl and sim gear upgrades
haste doesnt matter much at all for us if im remembering correctly
nice
there's no stat sweetspot, more stats=better
i have 3% haste, 32% crit, 70% mastery and 12 %versa
those are numbers 
Numbers are great
we love numbers
But no 69% haste so its meh
only stat that matters is leech because i refuse to be touched by those dirty h*alers
common occurrence
call to suffering just gives more suferring, more rng in your dps
again
bro what the fuck
cant be more sufferent than this
Why didnt you farm a dice tho
farming in ARPG : fun
farming for a single trinket in M+ : pure agony
any and every effort to replace these have not rewarded me in kind
i looted 4 parrots in FH so far, i have this fcking parrot since S1 BFA
i farmed like 30 fh runs for champ dice and already ready to burn out after i replaced it with raid trinkets this week anyway
things can be one of the following:
- Bugged in sims, working in game (fairly rare but it happens)
- Simming well but not realized in game
- Accurate to the game
usually when people say "simtrap" they just mean the second point, with 0 thought behind it. Just "my log don't say number sim say sim bad simtrap item gg". And that's just the dumbest shit you could possibly do, because you're basically announcing that you have no clue what you're doing or looking at. Simulations are a tool. Tools are meant to be used. You don't blindly just follow whatever sims higher because the number go up. I'd probably argue if that's how you're thinking about the game, you shouldn't sim at all.
You gotta think about what you're fighting, versus what you're simming. If you're simming 5 min, a 2 min trinket looks pretty good. But if you're on magmorax and you're not getting another cast off, why does it matter. What's the point? Mark of dargrul is a frontal line, it will hit in sims. You have to be cerebral enough to stop for MAYBE 3 seconds and go "yeah idk, mobs aren't grouped up in a line a lot of the time, probably shouldn't do that". It's the same deal with fishing for poison bomb in aoe. Yeah sure it sims better, but if you're only hitting half the mobs with a poison bomb then your precious 1.3% increase in a simulation doesn't really mean shit does it.
And all of that ain't the sims fault. The sim did its job, which was comparing the options in a sterile, consistent manner. How you take that information and apply it to your gameplay is your own damn problem. The sim didn't bait you, you baited yourself
that would be avoidance lol
leech is ussules
simtrap
Its one of those texts that I know the content of but I still read it out of enjoyment
And to respect the effort

avoidance to avoid those weirdos 
idk either this season sucks, or i lost my thrill for farming M+ and i burn out really fast
my trinkets have avoidance
if i do more than 5 runs of the same dungeon, i just want to uninstall the game and log on League
yeah I get that, I think the trap part of the simtrap lies in the blind reliance on sim results rather than seeing what a trinket actually does.
Also I just reckon you prefered the 'other' kind of trap wink wink nudge nudge

good talk
for me its mostly just playing wow way to much and hunting down bis, probably need a couple days from the game tbh
i'm fine just raidlogging at this point
i dont want to chase m+ BiS
because m+ are just boring and uninteresting
Its one of those moments where you realize why you are still awake
This deserves a TED Talk (or at least a pin/moroes command)
they're either so easy you can time it with your screen turned off, or so hard it's like hitting a wall until it break
it's always interesting to me when it gets into the NA degen hours and EU wakes up
cause the weird twilight zone in the middle really shows how humans sometimes have the social skills of a brick
So it’s like 3:40 for you rn??
yea
sleep deprived gang :)
Also when brick icon role so I can indicate my social skill level??

idk it's not that common of a problem
we've been squashing the whole simbait thing for the last couple years
i miss the Infexious discourses/dramas
as the community at large gets more and more familiar with sims it'll go away
That’s good to hear
Im actually kinda disappointed by the non-existent amount of dooming over 10.1.5 release date and no changes
Especially around those hours
world is healing I guess
sub rogues on sark be like "bro im just way better then you, look at my dmg"
Outlaws seem to be getting into the doom stage quite a lot recently, allegedly some of them were promised a ret-level rework
Just kick
them some interesting mfers
Outlaws always were dooming, no ? I mean their state is special most of the time if not all
weird how they have the time to create delusions in their head between the hits of cocaine
Any bfa cannonballers
i need feelycrafting advice on what to get from vault 
What sims best
i legit brought up that as a theoretical ability for them to get a cooldown for aoe, didnt even know it existed
Nah, it’s usually a lot less prolonged than now
Mr/Mrs Meownar, thats not feelycrafting
Bros be cooking a lot
current stade Outlaw reminds me of shadowlands Affliction
yo ass on my couch sims best 
Feelycrafters should stub their toe on livingroom furniture
That’s multithreading
with the 5 stages of griefing
the line 
I sometimes do that without feelycrafting 

You can shake my meow any day 
ye get 1 count of feelycrafting per stubbed toe, works post-stubbing too
sims coming up, lost my premium raidbots 
both drop, guess who rolled under a 10 on both
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/afjVffavNfEJNbJXQCj3vg
either half spark for a crafted ring to get rid of that damn onyx before I get my hands on the echo ring or I save the token for a socket/half spark next reset
Aussie heroic pug sounds fun ngl
Why are you using gear compare for vault shit
cause it's easier than putting crafted shit into top gear for me
least unhinged sim, using gear compare for vault 💀
already did top gear for vault earlier
@balmy condor am I weird for talking about outlaws like that while genuinely liking the spec myself and wearing a yellow nickname??
you're just a poser
Yea, ig
Honestly, thats just me, but I wouldnt even have a yellow name if I would mainly play outlaw
yeah
What do you have against yellow name
yellow names got some brain damage
never seen more unhinged group of individuals in my life
can confirm that
honestly your weird for even talking here, this channel gives me brainrot
Piss colour
😔
What's wrong with unhinged 
You weren't there during the Infexious era
This was true brainrot
At least yellow name isn't a 40years old spec

Its all the negatives you could think about if you hear unhinged
you don't gotta prove the point man
yellow name is reworked version of fury warrior, you can see the similiarities in their personality
Are BM names also yellow?
They wish to evolve into fury bois
I'm switching to blue name no im fine I guess
Dam, shouldn’t’ve started that
I'm never giving up my 
Icon roles are below spec roles in priority, so you can be a blue/yellow with a KB
amazing
I'm happy with my 40yo spec colour
Glad to hear that
I'll always play sin, it's the only spec that has enough downtime to allow me to roll a cigarette during a pull 
(I had it for a while too, but this type of red makes me feel sad for some reason. Good spec though)
what are you gonna do with all that free time if you ever give up smoking?
Cocaine, obviously
The line
24 minutes to recycle the same joke
I'm going green
Intercept the line early??
warriors don't have intercept anymore since forever, only charge and intervene now
I don’t even like warriors
proceeds to play the warrior version of rogue
how is it possible that i managed to find a pug to kill sark before i managed to find one for echo? (hc)
i don't think anyone else has my colour + role icon combo (for good reason)
This is cursed
Cringe
HO icon would be better here
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
I have a strong suspicion that you’re baiting me but both warriors feel very different to outlaw
yap im just trollin, all i know is that fury likes to press glowy stuff and so does houtlaw
We even have charge what do you mean
there i fixed it for you
Mechanically they might be similar, but somehow fury feels very… flavourless??
fury feels way more zugzug
only 1 resource to manage
Like all I do as warrior is swing the thing. Nothing else
It’s a bar you can run out of even if played correctly, so yes
You could play OL without seeing the bar tbh
^this
The only decision you might make depending on energy bar is “do I press one of my energy buttons”
Although when you don't get procs the spec feels horrible
Dmg too
When you don't have energy you can't even generate some
You can with blade rush but that's it
I genuinely tried to play warrior and find stuff I like but every time I’m sitting there thinking “what did I just play??”, as if there’s nothing even remotely memorable
Thistle sippy, blade rush, killing spree (depending on build)
Ready every like 20s
Should talent tea tbh my rng is abysmal
Yeah, people tend to like the sippy a lot
Maybe not in this channel, but outlaws find it rather helpful for energy issues
At least with ass spec you don't get carpal tunnel 
true, the previous rogue from my current raid got CPS from playing outlaw
what does CPS means in this context
pointless ability
rather fix energy managment
instead of a shity nostalgia bait button
that serves no purpose
My old wrists prefer low actions per minute classes
is there maybe some sort of APM tracking addon or weakauras?
Not that i know
But spammy classes do my head in, my reaction time is not what it was 10 years ago nor are my wrists
can bring the apm for all specs up with 1simple trick
play by using /cast abilityname

https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/apm-by-vinoh
apparently there is one, wanna see the differences between the specs
is there somewhere a tl;dr for sepsis usage?
i found a shorter tldr in the pins ^^ ty
That works too 
Sepsis flipping me back into stealth bars messes with my head.
sap and gouge?
and pickpocket :3
but they are on places where normal attacks would be
so my garrote is on the same spot
my stealth and regular bar are completly the same
i have ambush on an extra action bar that doesnt change no matter the stance
I just need to replace some stealth bar stuff to match normal, or make some WAs
Actually, I just need to make some WAs anyway.
The only spells that will consume sepsis buff are garrote and ambush without a blindside proc right?
Macro a [stealth] and a [nostealth] together and put the macro on both bars same slot and forget a stealthbar exists.
so i have stuff thats like reactive always on q, shift q is usually stuff i rarely use and all the other slots are for abilities that i click. And my bottom bar where mut is is exactly like this in stealth too
Probably works for me because i use this layout for any spec/class i play
Outlaw is one of the highest APM classes. I enjoy high APM, but I was ready for a change of pace, so is witched to assassination
Can you sim the different choices for ominous chromatic essence? Also: Should we generally trust the bloodmallet secondary stat distribution grid or sims more.
Finally getting to a point where DRs kick in
But strafeeeeeeeeeee. I do like that utilization of Q though.
just sim the gear in your bag, there's no specific DRs or breakpoints on stats
i think there is a thingy in tcresearch that you can put in the sim
i strafe with holding the right mouse button and press A/D
well actually no
i rebound that a long time ago, a and d are strafe
i dont even remember what button turns my camera left or right
Your mouse
well ye but the factory settings has a and d as turning the cam
i rebound that somewhere
The nether
probably
Fuu added it so I don’t have to keep it saved
My hero

is there any smart way to track improved garrot with weakaura? improved and not improved have somehow the same spellid 😄
i know there is a rogue wa pack which can do this, but its somehow deeply bound with other stuff
there is the sepsis weakaura that can track that stealth timer though it still runs the issue of not seeing an improved garrote visually
ya
so you dont clip it by mistake
okay and one question regarding deathmark.. it duplicated existings dots too or just dots applied while deathmark is active?
Can just yoink the garrote one from them. I think it requires custom coding but tbh I never looked deeper into how they track imp garrote
question about the opener for sepsis on my end, we're just destined to lose time off of our early improved garrotes right
both
exsang only duplicated existing dots, thats why you couldnt apply a new one until the ones before fell off
That is to say, after we garrote on opener, then sepsis, there's no way to really extend them to maximum duration because of the sepsis stealth windows right
just trying to get the max time during cooldowns that imp garrote is up?
For the first part of the first sepsis yeah, you sorta just take the L on it
gotcha
pog
i got 447 set chest, which i already had
then i killed normal and heroic zskarn for bomb
just to see that my ferals vault had bomb in it
lovely
Pogga
You recode how it’s implemented in simc core
Ye not sure why mutilate isn’t dropping stacks in sims
But it’s sadly not a quick fix from my understanding
i thought only reason why fragment is even good is exsang
But the correct number didnt go up in my vault 
Atleast i could take half a spark and get my crafted ring a week early 
Anyone else out here feeling the no dbd blues
I need to just bite the bullet and craft a mast/crit one
I wish there was a quick way to sim all the ring stats at once
Instead of inputting them manually
Crafted the crit mastery signet today for a 1k overall increase and now the sims are telling me I can finally replace annulet with the haste mastery raid ring 👏 now just to get it to drop….
From the DH discord, basically IRL shit + he gets brigaded in the communities.
I mean. I saw that. That's not really what I meant. We stopped getting much communication when the vault nerfs happened
Tuning isn't a solo dev thing, it has been talked about in the past about how all the devs get together to talk about it.
Realz being the only dev that really engages with the community has had a lot of, displeasure vented his way across both communities.
I get it, 1000%, sometimes you don't have the drive/emotional space to deal with social media.
There is a reason 'community managers' exist for games.
We appreciate Realz but it's not like no communication on rogue changes or intent is a new thing. It has been a constant struggle for the entirety of WoWs existence
How is it you can have literal volumes of notes, explanations, blogs and feedback threads on Warlocks, Druids, Shadow priests, and Mages, but we can't even have a short blue post that addresses concerns
It's sitting in the dark having no idea the direction they want to take you that drives people to doom
this.
Beyond that I think people in the rogue community would love to engange and give feedback on changes, but how can that happen when for instance last patch Rogue changes got pushed 3 days before the patch launched with aura buffs
grats
No that trinket doesn't exist.
what am i losing
Horn go bye
Personally I'm not a fan of iridius but you can do some silly things with it in a hero on pull situation.
I never had a horn though so can't say. I'm using a 441 bomb and 337 beacon nuke
Yikes that's tight
People have every right to be mad. This is a paid subscription game. How do they expect people to react if they advertise rogue changes in their big announcement for the new patch and then pull the rug out
Then they have the nerve to say the community is the problem
What changes did the advertise except now a 4% sub buff? Not completely In the loop.
In the big announcement post for 10.1.5 they said rogue changes were coming
“Changes are coming” in the initial 10.1.5 announcement

I missed that. I see. Potentially last minute talent swap around. The rumor I heard was unfortunately focused towards outlaw.
The only thing that qualifies as a change is new dice buff for outlaw that got mostly negative reaction from the players
Where did they say the community is the problem
Show me explicitly where anyone at blizzard stated that
Some stuff is on the way though, gotta wait till Friday and hopege
I'm going to be real with y'all, if you're going to continue expecting something in 10.1.5 you're probably going to be upset and disappointed
set your expectations for something maybe in 10.1.7 or more likely 10.2
They said they're going to look at it, I don't see why they wouldn't. Shit happens
But SURLY in 11.0
just in time for outlaws tier set fix
i expect rogue changes till 12.0 so i cant be disappointed
The guy in charge of rogue and DH had a sudden death in the family, if anything be mad at blizzard for putting him out on an island instead of having a contigency in place in case someone had to take personal time off
10.2 is another 5% buff
which is just a terrible business move
I think most people would agree it's egregious to have one person working on an entire class let alone 2
but given the fact that they ruined half of their employee base by removing the WFH after 3 years with minimal notice
and lost a shit ton of devs

It’s not one person, it’s a representative of an entire team
If there's an entire team I have yet to see a reference to them, because it seems like Realz is the one who works on most of the fixes.
And if there is an entire team is there not one other person who could engage with the community
It's always been that way. you don't need multiple people to work on a class.
Keep in mind this is their full time job.
The previous rogue dev (Sephuz) was in charge of 3 different classes during legion.
That being said, it could be argued that designing a more comprehensive talent trees that were introduced in DF, is more complicated than how it used to be in.
We have a major talent just sitting in our tree that doesn’t work. Imagine that being the case for any other class
Even just something acknowledging concerns would be nice. It seems to reason having more people working on a class would be better since you have more viewpoints and people who maybe say main each spec, there's under 15 classes it's not like asking for 2 primary devs on each is some crazy huge stretch thats going to bankrupt blizzard
can we stop the stupid US VS THEM stuff
cant see it anymore
Bobby says no
You're right, but usually that could be the QAs
But at this point I'm just more annoyed with communication lanes then anything
What are you on about?
Warlock Changes: Volume XIII Chapter 7 Page 452
we decided to buff them again because warlocks are wicked

I mean of course there's a team
even when there's a head dev designing a boss
there's a team designing it with them
people underestimate how much effort goes into implementing anything into a game that's older than 99% of #outlaw
I could always message Xelnath on steam to see what the warlock team looked like back then, but Im pretty sure it was just him
that was mop though
In the end it's the team lead (and above) that dictates where they should focus their attention
So it could be either bug fixing, new features, future features support or a rework.
But reworks would take the most resources i assume, so it's usually not on top of the list of urgency.
so times change anyways
yeah back in the day they'd assign certain devs to classes
but before they lost half their workforce due to the "move to southern california or leave" policy change
they bought out that dev in Boston
with like 200 people
that's a lot of people lol
management at AKB is sus
tbh
You know what doesn’t take a lot of work. Like two sentences telling the community literally anything about their current plans
All I want is for someone to tell me why a talent like triple threat in the outlaw tree doesnt affect ambush when its in a specific tree limb with no connections dedicated to ambush modifiers
or why exsang is completely broken
(not that Im complaining about that one
)
idk why but i want to craft the hat
play destiny, the game has a few problems rn with stability and FPS drops and stuff
you read EVERYWHERE "just swap the engine omg stop beeing so lazy " as if thats a thing you do in 2 button presses,and as if that would solve anything and not just create new unknown problems
cause people mouse over head first
poe has the same issue
"dogshit engine just fix it"
JUST SWAP ENGINE BRO
which tbf
their engine is dogshit

if you have too many sounds your fps just tanks
for no reason
poe2 doe, fixin dat innit
ye looks good
and don't get me wrong, I understand people's frustrations
I have plenty as well
but tbh blizzard's communication has always been dumpster tier
the new blood is trying to fix that, but I reckon a lot of upper management is standing in their way
It’s been pretty good lately in other places. They are just letting us rot for whatever reason
and you're right, they should've 100% said "yo rogue things aren't coming because some issues arose"
and people would've at least been less annoyed
they could've kept it vague af
and just said "shit happened sorry, aiming for 10.1.7"
and people woudl've been pissed, but still at least been able to stomach it better
Or just dies in a loading screen
unfortunately, telling people "its coming, just not quite yet" is the kind of thing other people on the team will miss/ignore and the weeks of no comms on it timeline is really not long to them vs a lifetime for us looking at it in microscopic detail
Annulet nerfs are not till the 11th right? cuz titan insight is outsimmin annulet for me with another 447 ring
looooool classic Alk
I'll DM it to you
correct
Are you sure you have the single target gem in and not storm gem or something
assassination actually replaces the annulet at a certain gear threshhold
so that's normal
with the socket I just got on my ring, my crafted 447 + 441 w/ socket beats my annulet
Yeah figured that was the case
"We were gonna bring rogue changes cause you need them but the management saw its one of the least played classes so we trashed all changes, gg"
classic management going off data
@gaunt moat I spent all that time farming the uldaman ring
and the freehold ring sims better

what a time to be alive
I'm pretty sure I offered to have this shaman's babies in exchange for the ring
after seeing it drop 6 times and the other person kept it
maybe it's a known info, but Luxthos updated his WA package to include the sepsis garrote
?
big
no u
yeah that one was beating out the uldaman ring + the nelth ring at 441
prolly cause I'm at 43% crit w/ buzzing runes

even though it only knocks me down to 41% crit and bumps my haste and mastery up
I have freehold and nelth ring at 447 one with socket
and 11% vers
It’s the only thing I’m proud of
@spice spire you should be proud of the man that you are every day
you're a wonderful best friend to george and a wonderful life partner to val
I am not
Ty tho
Question, on the sepsis opener, when/where would you put a Beacon use? I'm currently using Bomb+Beacon, I've been using bomb on pull and Beacon after the 10s but not sure if there's a better way
after rupture is what i think people are doing
During the flag window, but before DM/Sepsis
flag window?
OH
Im dumb
Been playing back and forth with sub and sin x)
So just slip in Beacon after rupture but before Sepsis/DM
was just a bit confused kekw
if you're running bomb & beacon,
for sin: garrote > snd > ER > Rupture > Beacon > rest of the rotation (if you have bomb macro'd into abilities this'll make sure you can get every beacon cast off without a problem
for sub: you beacon before going into flag > rupture > etc
I also confused myself hard x)
Any pros/cons with garrote>snd>ER>Rupture or garrote>snd>muti x2>rupture, as suggested with the picture guide in #assassination-faq ?
Now that you mention using ER faster, I feel like its just, better?
from personal experience, it's a smoother ropener, and it puts ER on CD sooner
yeah the ER 3rd global thing is like a smol optimization discovered in the last 2-3 weeks
I feel like its gonna help out having a faster and longer rupture early
And also puts everything on CD faster by saving the GCD before sep/DM
so you're juggling less while getting through your opener
exactly
@gusty mirage where would you macro bomba as sub (assuming you’d want to do that)??
Still learning Sepsis and its been very weird not hitting ambush 🙃
I have it macro'd to gloom & evisc
So if you have beacon soon you hold??
yeah or I just blast it and eat the 10s icd
as long as you get the first beacon cast out asap
it's sort of a non issue
cause you're getting an x amount of casts per boss fight
right
Yeah
Unless your fight ends literally at 5min yeah hahaha
ideally I'd like to not macro bomb
but I tried that and forgot to press the button

I enjoy not macroing bomb 🙂
I was looking for something like BtE (stuff you press every 15-20 seconds)
I went a minute before I was like "oh shit I should press bomb dispenser"
crits reset it faster though
that's the shitty part
so for sin I have it macro'd to mutilate and shiv
which I 100% recommend against if you have double on-use
but if you're stupid like me
just macro it
who cares
I had that icd ruin a magmorax kill for us 🥲
boss was at 700k hp
and I was evasion tanking it
Yeah, fair enough
Gotta say, feels good to evasion tank the last 1% of a kill hahaha
every long time rogue did that once during progress
if beacon didn't crit
and its the ultimate moment
^
last man standing evasion kills are 10/10
last time i had it was during Raden in Nyalotha 
got the tank mechanic
Im sadly just a scrub H prog person, but hey, still happened this week so I take em 🙃
our DH taunted it and dashed across the platform
lmao
and I died with the tank mechanic
and we killed it
hey man, heroic/aotc raiding is still like top 5% of all raiders
^
might be closer to 10%
but still
you're in literally the top 10% of all players
that's nothing to sell yourself short about
Its funny and sad cuz I realistically know its still decent
But whenever you look up stuff and help and optimization... Its all like "Doesnt matter for H anyways cuz overgear lmao" and thats still true
Oxi is a 1%er 
i mean yeha
I'm also a shitter
I have sub otps destroying my parses
unlucky
But atleast im getting purple parses on H without being overgeared or anything so im kinda happy with it^^

I play too conservative idk
stealthi pointed that out on dathea
he said I play too safe
I lose a lot of damage because I feint/vial when raid damage goes out, and I overcompensate for mechanics
That’s for prog but after that those are unbound 
Should we play defensive or just call it healer mechs when raid wide pops up?
stats are going all over the place, but I do as the crys... raidbots sim guide me
I can stomach wiping to enrage, I can't stomach wiping to dumb shit because I was greedy
if cheat isn't on cd are you really being that greedy?
unbinding vial and feint feels... tempting, goddamn
wait until sark
it'll be on CD
don't worry

you just get ass blasted in p1
sounds like optimal usage of CD
even with the 10% nerf
Very stupid Q: does dying from a 1 shot (like, not a dmg ability) still kill you or does it proc cheat?
depends on how much the hit is for
Depends on how hard you got hit
if it's beyond a certain threshhold you die through cheat
Like staying in the underground in Sark
oh you for sure just die
Ur dead
thats what I tho
Like if Oxi hits me cheat will go off
Cuz its not dmg right? Its just death
also when magmorax decides to double hit you on the group soak in mythic
But if quake does it’s too much overkill
Word, I dont think sims ever led me to any vers gem for sin.
my raidbots told me to craft my ring crit/vers lmao
some wonky shit with the gear levels we're getting at
ngl
I might have to craft it crit/vers in 10.1.5
for when I play sub
now that the annulet is dead

glorious days, that ring shall rot in the maw
solution for that one: dont
(played more sub then assa this patch btw)
due to m+ or are you raiding as sub?
m+
this season m+ as assa

yeha sure
kill totems fast btw
kill sparks fast btw
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
Caught in 4k bozo
man
i know
and it sucks
sub in m+ legit drains my remaining brain mass
STORM POWDER STORM POWDER STORM POWDER DANCE STORM POWDER STORM SECRECT TECH STORM POWDER STORM POWDER
oh look im top dps
im so good
can spamm 2 buttons 
i fucking hate how assa has ZERO aoe when ic is on CD. so if there's some small adds before another pull or whatever you do 0 dps to those
and its so much more many inconvenient moments like that
bcs IC is in the game
and we're balanced around it
fucking delete it already
fail design
preach
!fuu

ill be back to pushing when i have fun on assa.
being sad while playing isnt fun
i want to live in a world where we not locked into the left side of general tree, so we can take dance, in this world ic is a aoe deathmark or jsut doesnt exist
23 vp 
Nerf surv
Op busted class
Overtuned
Too busted
year of the spear
mate, i have legit respect for every single survival player
that plays the spec when its not overtuned OP garbage
like
99% chance they just SLAM HARD
every single guild i was in that had a survival player? he was top dps
like, no contest
Bansh thinks survival is the best in keys right now
And I think the best in raid but unsure on that
Think that was more fight dependent
mate
its funny
cus survival is actually the highest simming hunter spec so many times
like, im sure its the "Best" out of the 3 most of the time since...BfA?
its just that nobody is playing it cus its melee hunter and has no utility lol
where bomba proc 
Sv slaps, the low utility and survivability is what gets you
Pet utilization is a headache for it
Low utility and survivability HUHH
Hunter isn’t the most tanky class in the game but it is not squishy anymore
True, utility as in more for self preservation, not like soothe or traps etc
But turtle shell and self heal is meh
The stam buff was needed
They also have bear when they play with a pet which is a good button
It was nice, but the leech off of a ferocity pet is too good
mate
you didnt saw the galaxy brain take somone had on the cursed website yesterday about hunter deffensives
They legit have warlock hp
"hunters have bad deffensives, because when they used all of them, they have nothing to reduce dmg anymore"
i legit dont understand how reddit brains can be so stupid
reddit is just hunter and warlock players so it makes sense
built different
Yoo I just got bomb dispenser. So I just macro it to mutilate and act like it's a passive trinket for the rest of it?
