I also haven't played rogue for about 7 weeks, I am ABSOLUTELY trash at Combat, but ya the lack of ondemand aoe can be felt. While Ele isn't nearly as on demand as SV it's not as bad either

royal lantern
#

can test feinster

#

oh wait, can allready press feint rn if you want

gusty mirage
#

yeah press feint and just add a multiplier to your dps

#

ez

dark token
#

Ele sham is in much better spot than sin or even sub

gusty mirage
#

I think sub slaps in keys

dark token
#

It's ok in keys

gusty mirage
#

granted I only ever really did 24s and 25s

#

wish black powder did damage though

dark token
#

Your DPS is low compared to top specs

gusty mirage
#

unfort

dark token
#

But you can live

#

Outlaw will do 10-20% more dmg

#

If played well

gusty mirage
#

pressing black powder doesn't even feel good

#

sadly

#

you could have a pack of 8000 and it still feels worse than pressing eviscerate

clever sapphire
#

pressing rupture is the best feeling after sectec as sub rogue

#

well in aoe

midnight mist
fleet coral
#

pirates... maybe they'll fix sin

gusty mirage
#

not everyone is you

storm forum
#

Friends my guild has gotten a few p3 pulls on fyrakk, our best start at p3 was at 42ish% and best overall pull was 23%. We have 1 more scheduled raid. How doomed are we?

gusty mirage
#

10-20% more damage cuz pirate

#

and then the zac bonus dam

#

of 30% more

#

so 40-50% more

gusty mirage
#

it can die any p3 pull

#

legit boss just falls over now in p3

#

when are you guys lusting

drifting cloud
#

ive seen people kill it from 15% best try

storm forum
#

P3 after first knock back/after first seed drops

gusty mirage
#

ye so 42% going into p3 and you're lusting p3

drifting cloud
#

just how p3 works out, everyone gets cds back and theres nothing new that waasnt there at 35%

gusty mirage
#

you're straight chilling

cerulean nest
#

finally got fyrak mount on last raid night

midnight mist
fleet coral
#

just for wondering about which tier you think assa might be at season 4 ?

#

F ?

midnight mist
#

and if you are decent then easy 50% more

gusty mirage
#

which is ass for sub anyway

midnight mist
gusty mirage
#

I am simply ASSEMBLED UNIQUELY

spice surge
gusty mirage
#

if you're seeing sub 35-38% pushes into p3 @storm forum you're seeing people who lust start of p2

midnight mist
spice surge
#

Aint no way youre doing double the damage of DHs

gusty mirage
#

zac plays with a fury warrior

#

and double outlaw rogue

#

he can't be trusted

midnight mist
#

wdym dh

spice surge
#

Idk 50% is such an exaggeration

midnight mist
#

is it

spice surge
#

Are you doing 50% more damage than any other player youre playing with

gusty mirage
#

maybe the tank

midnight mist
#

sometime losing to the spriest

#

im very ashamed

gusty mirage
#

remember when spriest cried all tier

midnight mist
#

but what can you do

gusty mirage
#

about how bad they were

#

then 1 tuning patch and they're godlike again

gusty mirage
#

weird how that worked out

midnight mist
#

depends eleem but

#

if it aint a master blaster with buffs ye

#

outlaw is very good rn

#

very too good

spice surge
#

I still aint buying 50%

storm forum
#

I'm actually so glad I swapped off priest for this tier. Shadow and disc both had awful feeling tier sets.

gusty mirage
#

I think it's fine where its at

#

ye it does nutty damage, but like

#

so what

#

so does DH

#

and don't get me started on the wizards

spice surge
#

Like i'd do more damage than our mage pretty much every key, if outlaw did 50% more damage than mages why would anybody play mages

gusty mirage
storm forum
#

I'm leaving again

gusty mirage
#

I don't blame you

storm forum
#

I'm burnt out as hell

#

And don't wanna play s4

gusty mirage
#

you don't want to experience vault of the incarnates AWAKENED?

storm forum
#

I would rather eat glass

gusty mirage
#

(we're finishing people's mounts and then afking until war within)

midnight mist
#

its not double

midnight mist
#

i asked myself that a lot

#

but then it also heavely depends on comp

#

when you go monk war comp

gusty mirage
midnight mist
#

vrey different than dh pi mage

gusty mirage
#

so if the sub rogue did 300k

vestal wren
gusty mirage
#

you're telling me a "decent outlaw" would do 450k?

midnight mist
midnight mist
#

no

#

ok sure

#

I would

#

mb

gusty mirage
#

idk many people doing 450k overall in keys

#

tbh

vestal wren
#

i think there are only a hand full of people that make subtlety work in keys

#

so its very hard to have a fair comparison

gusty mirage
#

I think the glaring problem with the comparison is very few people tried

#

even stealthi gave up

#

@earnest remnant YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE

vestal wren
#

kush, stealthi, eleem, raz, prophet

#

wouldn't say nobody tried

#

subtlety isn't bad, outlaw is just better overall

#

and easier to execute

earnest remnant
#

eh

#

outlaw is harder than DB sub is

#

its just outlaw is 100x better for the dungeons than sub is

midnight mist
#

100x 2ez

#

@gusty mirage @spice surge reading this ?

earnest remnant
#

you can play sub up to like 3800-3900 but you need the right comp for it

midnight mist
#

i only said 1.5x

gusty mirage
#

he's a raccoon

#

and a lawyer

#

both are notoriously bad at math

earnest remnant
#

i actually got a A+ in math

gusty mirage
#

I rest my case

earnest remnant
#

buddy

gusty mirage
#

yeah and I also got an A+ in calculus

#

whats your point

earnest remnant
#

you forget that im asian?

gusty mirage
#

half

earnest remnant
#

other part is danish

#

also very good at math

#

so

gusty mirage
#

one part is good at math, the other part speaks a bastard language

earnest remnant
#

L bozo

#

yeah korean is weird

gusty mirage
#

also

#

wtf is "level 2 systemic" math

midnight mist
#

also outlaw is 10x tankier rn

#

very goodge

#

float like a butterfly is a godsend

spice spire
midnight mist
gusty mirage
#

@earnest remnant L bozo only 140th in the world for math

Prayeg that sin gets some love for S4

#

I want off of this sub train

gusty mirage
#

sin's so fun in keys

#

shame they overnerfed it

#

until next expac

#

when the same shit happens again

midnight mist
#

idk, you kinda need an insanely high level of key to be able to send your cds on trash

#

your target just dies

#

its weird

gusty mirage
#

and at that high enough level your survivability fucking sucks

#

and your ST dam is mid

vestal wren
#

so it does 2x the damage of sub/outlaw

#

so it takes 8-10 nerfs to be bad

#

also padding on the "rogue got so much changes" list

scenic nacelle
#

Remember when sin was amazing? I member Smoge

vestal wren
gusty mirage
#

yeah which time

scenic nacelle
#

The first giga month of S3 lol

fleet coral
#

okay maybe was huge problem on a raid but why aoe gets nerfed too

clever sapphire

see this for priest? give me this on sin

(i have no idea what i would like buffed besides bonespike)

because who tf wants to play bonespike

with how sin currently is

spice surge
spice spire
#

Ty

spice surge
#

np

digital venture
#

I think a cool approach to sin in m+ would be to have a talent or even a buff to KB to explode if your target dies before the whole duration

clever sapphire
grim jay
#

but that would certainly help in lower keys

#

or if you have those bursty bois in your group

#

imo its just a balancing thing

digital venture
#

I usually play with a pala and a monk and I struggle a bit with KB duration

#

but I agree, sin is super fun both in m+ and raids

#

I tried the other 2 specs and always come back to sin

grim jay
shy pecan
grim jay
#

idk if tying poisons to sudden demise would make it broken tbf

digital venture
#

no idea how it is in high keys. My team is lazy and stop wanting to try for higher keys (we stoped at 21ish)

clever sapphire
#

well from what i gathered over the season is that your kb target wont really live even on a 25

#

if you send all cooldowns

high jetty
#

Can confirm. I played my rogue with our team last night in a handful of 25/26s and I got 3 full duration KBs all night

#

Gonna start pulling a whysper and opening with KB

digital venture
high jetty
#

Yeah, we will see how next season goes when we don’t out gear every thing so hard

#

But really, by the time you set up, you’re looking at a prio target living 24+ seconds, which is pretty unrealistic

gusty mirage
#

you have maybe like 2-3 non-boss mobs a dungeon that'll live the majority of that

#

and most of the time it's not even the full 24s

#

lmao

high jetty
#

Even with coordination, like my team was cleaving off off targets to let me try and play the game

#

Yeah, like I said, I got 3 full KBs all night lol

#

I also play with a ret and a BM

gusty mirage
#

like I remember week 1, I'd set up everything

#

get ready to press KB

#

and the mob is at 40% health

high jetty
#

Gotta put together a team of wheelchair specs

gusty mirage
#

like oh okay

#

neat

clever sapphire

Get an aff lock and like

Feral I guess lol

#

#

God, even if they go on the aug

clever sapphire
#

thats the secret

#

you dont do wcm

high jetty
#

You ain’t killing that shit

gusty mirage
#

the secret is you bank brezzes and let the person die

#

cause its faster

high jetty
#

That comp literally couldn’t do more than a 22 lol

#

Tbh that’s probably right

clever sapphire
#

wcm is my most hated key this season solely because of the tree boss

high jetty
#

I like it on my warrior

#

I hate it on my lock/rogue

gusty mirage
#

wcm my hated key because for some odd reason you get stuck in combat sometimes

high jetty
#

Shadowstep just works 30% of the time in the courtyard too

#

“You’re mounted”

#

Okay?…

gusty mirage
#

I miss week 1 of the season when demo's imps would go on a journey

#

and pull half the dungeon

#

and when ret pally's divine toll would just pull an entire side of the manor

shy pecan
clever sapphire
#

now its only priests mind controlling afflicted

gusty mirage
#

no oxipal was strictly protection

shy pecan
#

Oh

gusty mirage
#

until my friend wanted to tank again

that's when I started playing ret

rip essences man

#

absolute banger borrowed power

gusty mirage
#

so that you're invincible

clever sapphire
#

is that how you math?

#

i dont do the math much

gusty mirage
#

vers is two numbers

#

damage/healing amp and DR

#

the DR is half of the first number

#

so if you have 200% more damage/healing

#

you'll have 100% DR

shy pecan
#

What’s DR?

gusty mirage
#

which makes you superman

shy pecan
#

🙂

gusty mirage
#

Deez rNuts

clever sapphire
#

200% more dmg is still 0, but atleast i can live

shy pecan

Oh

if i die next season with full vers gear im blaming you oxi

maybe 2 mil

I would pay 3 mil for warbank tabs if I had alts

depends. I use a gbank right now which basically is the same but just my rogue cant get to it shrug

whispyr why are you not streaming and talking about the assa news

storm forum

He's editing the YouTube videos for them

hexed willow
#

why does blizzard not want to release any sin hero trees

#

i dont understand

slim hamlet
gilded oasis
#

because they hate us clearly

balmy condor
#

editing the videos lowers their views

slim hamlet
balmy condor
#

not worth it 90% of the time

#

viewer retention sucks so bad

slim hamlet
#

That's because the best parts of your videos is when u go schizo at the start or end of them

hexed willow
slim hamlet
#

Wouldn't that mean they should do the same for assa

hexed willow

and another 3% nerf to sin just to be sure

damn that message just made me realise how broken online english is

how does "tbh idk wtf u" is something that makes sense

why do you need to be excited for a sneak peak of a thing that's in alpha that's not coming out for another 5-6 months

you mean the wartabs

real talk, the different reveals of the hero talents have been interesting about class design for each of the corresponding specs. Are they final? probably not, but the idea and design is interesting direction. We saw the one for outlaw+sub, which had interesting balance of defensive -> offensive CD and so therefore I am very curious to see how the design for fatebound and deathstalker are focused. Looking at other specs, its both enlightning/concerning for direction. So yeah I am a little sad that there hasn't been any clear "reveal" for assassination yet because I do find that kind of stuff interesting to look at

sorry it came off as shittalking but i did want to see something

balmy condor
#

what's the rush

slim hamlet
#

Pretty sure everyone would like to see the hero talents, but also it doesn't matter

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

why does everything need to be now

#

and sneak peaked

clever sapphire
#

if they see that people hate the weird ways like oracle and the sub thingy, they will take info from that and not post some halfassed trees for us

balmy condor
#

and teased

slim hamlet
#

Because it builds hype

gilded oasis
#

I barely even look at notes until like a week before release cause everything is gonna change 5 times anyway

slim hamlet
#

Otherwise there probably wouldn't be an open alpha

bronze pike
#

It doesn’t build hype

bronze pike
#

It builds problems

Alright remby is being normal. I know it’s dire ohno

balmy condor
#

there is no hype built from sneak peaking hero talents pre-alpha

slim hamlet
#

So you guys don't think any of the news today have build any hype

bronze pike
#

I’m sooo hyped to know ret has breath of syndragosa

slim hamlet
#

that's crazy

bronze pike
#

Verrrry teased

#

Very hyped

balmy condor
clever sapphire
balmy condor
#

the thing about hype is that it dies down over time

#

if you're hyping now

slim hamlet
#

ofc it's far away from the expansion

balmy condor
#

you're gonna burn yourself out on hype by the time it releases

slim hamlet
#

But ofc ofc ofc showing stuff builds hype

balmy condor
#

and thats how you get a discord full of doomers

hexed willow
#

hype is an infinite resource

slim hamlet
#

that's why u do open alpha

balmy condor
#

no

#

you do open alpha to test things

shy pecan
hexed willow
#

balmy condor
#

you do open beta to build hype

#

open alpha does nothing but turn people off

bronze pike
#

The people who got alpha are testing things rn

hexed willow
#

bug testing is fun

bronze pike
#

They’re not posting to generate hype

slim hamlet
#

yes and get community feedback, which can be shown with hype

bronze pike
#

It’s a lot of “if this works with that”

clever sapphire
#

btw does this talk happen every time a new addon comes out?

#

with all the pre alpha talk

bronze pike
#

Yes

balmy condor
#

yes

hexed willow
#

look at the community feedback about the oracle tree

clever sapphire
#

crazy

balmy condor
#

it's insane

hexed willow
#

that was helpful

clever sapphire
#

how are you not mental yet whispyr

balmy condor
#

it's the same shit as like presidential elections

bronze pike
#

Oracle feedback was such nonsense

balmy condor
#

where the election is in november of 2024, but you start getting spammed with election shit in august of 2023

bronze pike
#

People just have a hate boner for pi

#

Didn’t even fucking test it

balmy condor
#

because the whole election is like a year and a half

bronze pike
#

And now

balmy condor
#

and it creates a ton of voter apathy

#

and then no one votes

hexed willow
#

tbf PI sucks

bronze pike
#

You got this boring ass oracle tree now

slim hamlet
#

The main reason it got changed was because it was bloating as fuck

balmy condor
#

and then everyone wonders why shit passes

slim hamlet
#

not because of PI

clever sapphire
clever sapphire
#

you can tell its bad without testing it

bronze pike
#

Remove the haste from oracle

slim hamlet
#

if it was just PI then they would have stuck with it for sure

bronze pike
#

And pi could have be attributed to the shadowpriest

#

Parse pi fiending dead forever

clever sapphire
#

well im so hyped i didnt even buy the version for alpha/beta whatever

bronze pike
#

Like blessing of summer

clever sapphire
#

i will play when it comes out

bronze pike
#

But nope

clever sapphire
#

and not get burned out before the actual release

#

me smart

slim hamlet
#

Fixing PI with 1/2 hero talents idk about that

royal lantern
# bronze pike You got this boring ass oracle tree now

allright stop

do you EVER played a healer or saw what oracle did, or are you just going "Omg stupid people didnt even try it out"

cus it looks like #2 now

oracle was not functional on multiple levels

healing while playing oracle would have been close to impossible, espacially for disc who is ALSO supposed to ramp all the time and was forced to play their "oracle minigame" every 50seconds now during it, it didnt work in theory allready

#

like, external hate aside

#

oracle was pure dogshit in so many ways

slim hamlet
#

First time reading Oracle it sounded kinda cool and then u think about it for a solid 15 seconds

royal lantern
#

"yeha you need to heal now, but also do the oracle game and dont miss it cus then you used a dead ability that did nothing, and giga rng can make our raid do big dmg aswell xd" was the worst tree they made, the feedback was like that for a good reason

#

cus like

#

EVERYTHING would have been around oracle

#

in your healer priest gameplay

slim hamlet
#

Imagine doing that as disc specially

#

💀

royal lantern
#

^

#

just ramp bro while also doing oracle bro, its easy bro

bronze pike
#

Alright I see the point

balmy condor
# clever sapphire and not get burned out before the actual release

one of the things that makes me the most mad is how releases and sneak peaks and shit get earlier and earlier and earlier and earlier every expansion because by the time the expansion releases I've had to digest things and explain and opinionate about everything for like 5-7 months and nothing is new anymore. Dragonflight was wild for that, I remember leveling through the campaign and I was getting deja vu, not because I played the campaign already, but because I kept encountering things that have been leaked and teased and revealed and over-analyzed and it actually straight up ruined the wonder that I normally feel going into an expansion. The only thing that happens when an expac releases now is I feel relief

bronze pike
#

But you can’t tell me that the majority of oracle feed back wasnt just “I hate pi” based and not this whole analysis on healing

#

No way that was the first thing on peoples mind

slim hamlet
#

It was for sure

royal lantern
#

a big part of it was that ye

slim hamlet
#

100%

#

I barely saw anything about the bloat besides from actual priests

runic hinge
#

Tier set looks cool

royal lantern
#

70% was "oracle is shit cus i hate Pi"

30% was "oracle is shit cus the gameplay would be horrible if you actually think about it"

slim hamlet
#

But I highly doubt it would've been changed if it was just because "we hate pi" because then they would already have deleted PI

#

although

royal lantern
#

it was a moment where ultra casuals and higher level players agreed on, just in different ways

slim hamlet
#

considering trickster hasn't been confirmed for a rework it might actually have been because of PI hate

#

who knows

balmy condor
#

trickster rework 💀

slim hamlet
#

Would rather have 20 more weeks of cooking for our trees than see trickster

clever sapphire
royal lantern

clever sapphire
#

so the hype goes from exploring the new zone, to level fast and get gear

balmy condor
slim hamlet
#

I hard disagree I don't lose any hype and all I avoid is lore stuff

royal lantern
#

oracle had a big part the external haters (bless them, fuck externals)

trickster is only rogues saying "this tree is shit wtf?" but thats a small amount of people

slim hamlet
#

If it ruins it for you then honestly just don't look at it imo

you open a wow discord, they're gonna talk about it

you cannot google anything related to wow

clever sapphire

you can't log into the game

it's unavoidable

and now everyone is expecting to know everything months in advance

slim hamlet
#

yea if the mention of it ruins it for you

balmy condor
#

to the point where we got people doing fomo that trees aren't sneak-peaked pre-alpha

#

I mean

#

what the fuck

hexed willow
#

😦

slim hamlet
#

I thought u said it was more when u had sat there and analyzed and thought lots about it so there was nothing new when it launched

hexed willow
#

something about ashes of creation hype

#

its totally real

slim hamlet
#

if the mention of an ability is enough then gg it's impossible

balmy condor
#

star citizen, fallout, the amazon mmo whatever it was called

hexed willow
#

ugh new world

upper timber
#

Deatherstalker still not released or announced?

hexed willow
#

so much potential

balmy condor
#

they all died because they teased all their shit like a year before it was ready

#

the game was shit

#

and then hype died

hexed willow
#

tbf new world died becauseit wasnt developed past the first half of the game

balmy condor
#

star citizen looks actually good now

grim jay

#

I didn't even know fallout or star citizen were a thing until it released

#

unless it isn't released yet

hexed willow

slim hamlet

All I have seen was one video legit earlier today "fallout wasn't actually bad"

#

or some shit

balmy condor
slim hamlet
#

Yea

hexed willow
#

i think it was more of overpromising

#

wow doesnt really pretend its something its not

slim hamlet
#

New games are definitely kinda fuckd for doing it too early, but imo an mmo is not gonna get ruined by it, besides for people that are like us where we sit and look at wowhead stuff, analyze and discuss about it AND also care about it being shown too early

royal lantern
grim jay
slim hamlet
#

Like some of my friends are talking about actually trying wow since I forced them to do plunderstorm, and they got absolutely no idea about hero talents

balmy condor
# hexed willow i think it was more of overpromising

people expected things from the trailers and they got alpha months after. a lot of games actually deliver on the stuff they said, they just deliver on it 2 years after they reveal everything and by then its too late

hexed willow
#

yeah overpromising

balmy condor
#

no

hexed willow
#

if they gave a realistic roadmap, i feel like they'd have more long term success?

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

it's not about giving a realisitic roadmap

#

it's about not fucking announcing stuff

#

2 years before its ready

slim hamlet
#

And btw I do agree it's too early, but not for the same reason, I am just sad that I need to wait now, like 3 months like with frostpunk 2 beta this week is perfect imo

but every game and every studio feels this huge pressure to always be announcing something or leaking an announcement and releasing things more frequently and more hype. Even irl from my own hobbies, bowling ball companies used to release new balls every quarter alongside like big tournaments and stuff where they would announce. Now they actually release stuff so quickly they can't keep up with their own announcements. They announce a ball, reviewers release their videos a week later, it goes on pre-order 2 weeks before its available. By the time the ball is actually out, a new announcement happens. They announce April 3rd, reviews come out April 10th, April 13th there's a new twitter teased for an announcement on May 7th. You can't even get your hands on the ball until the 20th, realistically the 25th. Everyone just trying to hype so hard everyone becomes numb to it, so you need the new bigger hype to hype your hype that you lost from the hype and I just don't fucking get it man
