its a value talent that currently doesnt provide enough value for how the spec is played
It has more defensive value in keys
Technically yes but not really
i mean tbh
ignoring mechanics can be way more significant than not
vanish just helps refresh that juicy empowered garrote
Idk garrote aint that juicy
please dont start that one man
bUt mUh REEEEEstealths
i just use it to refresh garrote
pizza discussion was way more intellectual
unless a big pack is coming and i need restealth
or at least fresh
pineapple on pizza is allright and most people hating it do it because "lol, le funny internet memes"
there are way worse toppings
WAY WAY worse
i just ate homemade pizza with pineapple on it

And you don’t think calling it a “value talent that doesn’t provide enough value for how the spec is played” is a bit disingenuous?
The whole point is that subterfuge is pointless cause we have 6 seconds baked into all our stuff, and that +1 vanish charge is equally pointless on a spec that casts on cooldown.
Yes it provides no value for how the spec is played, but what kind of argument is that? Deathmark/vendetta have been 2 min, vanish has been 2 min, since the dawn of time itself, the spec has played this way for at least a decade. It’s okay to just admit the talent is utterly pointless you don’t have to jump through weird hypothetical hoops to try and make it sound better
Anyone ges randomly unstealth ? It happens so much, it's tilting.
i cant agree with him more
A sandwich with shit in it is a shit sandwich, it’s not a sandwich that doesn’t provide enough satisfaction for how my tastebuds work
Cloak
cloak ?
Its the sark cloak
Unequip it
!stealthbreak
Stealth can break from:
- Evoker legendary buff expiring and bouncing back to the Evoker.
- Ominous Chromatic Essence trinket on buff gain
- Voice of the Silent Star when wearing it yourself
- Misterweaver soothing mist when talented into Unison
- Blossom of Amirdrassil (trinket) initial hot dropping/spreading
- Vicious brand (Signet trinket self damage)
the sark cloak will legit take u out of stealth
why do you think they got rid of shadow dance?
yeah shit is cursed
lol welcome to rogue
holy fuck this goes craaaaaazzyyy

bro preaching
Cause it warped every spec around it in an unhealthy way and diluted a distinct thematic from subtlety
well I think a lot of the capstones are just thoroughly shit, dunno why cold blood exists, echoing is whatever and vanish is whatever… I think it should be made better but I also don’t think its just the same as how you are using vanish today + 1 other use in the dungeon overall, it can allow you to slightly change how you use your vanishes especially if the spec moves away from a ST focus, which is possible in m+
Okay but again that’s all hypotheticals
Cold blood excellent on Sub. GTFO out
That’s not actually what’s happening
a lot of m+ is aoe and playing around your DM is less required
we talkin assa 
Well do you think 1 extra use of vanish is better than 40 uses of echoing reprimand across a 30 min dungeon
You talking general fucking class tree
in context of assa yeh
Like your argument for why it could possibly be anything other than 0 dps is entirely rooted in gameplay that doesn’t exist for assassination
Which is why this is confusing
well no if thats the comparison
guess what all three are effected by it.
Thats the choice youre making
Between +1 vanish charge and er
(also ER comes with 2% crit)
rip apart the assa capstones
With deathstalker and coin buffs over the last couple weeks we’re more caustic focused in m+ than ever before
1 vanish charge isnt the same as 1 vanish use in entire dungeon
It is
Or how your spec tree has everything built in so subterfuge is near useless
In most cases it is the same
‘most cases’
Thats the point, and best case its 2 uses
Can I get a 3? Loads of values at 3
are there even good logs out there atm for it
Yes
Even if we are being excedingly generous and say its 3 casts
3 nails and a cross and your are forgiven
who has em
Zero has been playing it exclusively
3 casts of vanish VS 2 lethality points and 40 ER casts
He double vanishes the first pull and then on cooldown
his logs arent public as far as I can see
Then open your eyes
His eyes vanished x2
Vanished off rogue
idk why being toxic im not even saying its good
it’s just competing against weak stuff
I wouldnt call er weak
It's weak against weak and I'd argue the other stuff isn't really weak (Lethality + ER)
its not insane OP
its been a painpoint for whispyr, it kinda gets on his nerves. its not personal
it’s general tree. It shouldn’t be strong. It should hold use in some form for all three specs
sorry subterfuge is useless due to your spec tree
nah, general tree should be mostly for utility and defensives not this bs "heres a fuck ton of damage" as well as how your entire spec gets played (dust for sub) in your class tree
I picked random dung and looked at highest logs I could find and its 0.4 vanishes vs 0.5 so what like 3 uses or so in dung but also you get to time them not on cd
we back at give assa everything and then some argument unironically
I’ve gone through literally dozens of these to try and estimate the value
There is none
so when you are flaming me for saying his logs aren’t there they actually arent
They were earlier in the season bite me bro
They were

I been checking every day of prepatch

thats kinda weird ngl
I ain’t doing all this work just to have to google logs cause you want hypothetical situations that don’t exist
I’m here waiting for the CB build to drop in pins
the first log I checked had more extra vanishes than the 1 you’re saying about though
so idk its hard to get good data sorry if it seems like im being a dick
We know. You don’t like shit sandwiches.
It’s just restealth v3
The pain never ends
I can’t believe whispyr is misleading us about the double vanish tech
Fortunately we have heroes ready to argue to the death about it
You can’t reason with these people. They see top logs playing with a team and using vanish for specific pulls and think it’s the meta
We’re on the verge of dropping improved garrote in single target cause bleed damage from gar and rup has literally never been worse
And I can’t even win that +1 vanish charge provides near 0 value
Pointless
Actually just pointless
Sisyphus work
Im fairly sure we just do drop the imp garrote, the zoldyck and dashing interactions just aint in sims yet so cant be 100% sure
Well 4 points
the top logs arent like that atm they are just kinda random as its prepatch and I think I’m being pretty reasonable about it don’t know why this got so divisive
Because at best it’s 4 wasted points for 1.5 vanishes in 30 fucking minutes
It feels awful and I’d rather play er
Fucking huge bro
Worth
Youre like the 30th guy that shows up this week claiming that its good and then refusing to acknowledge that you might be wrong when 10 people tell you
except I said numerous times I’m not claiming its good
You say that but then you do the opposite
but it gets across that way

well then I explained badly idk

i mean ive been in this server for less than 2 hours and already got that sub+vanish2 aren't worth it lol but as always, if you like to play X then go do it, it's your character
Also, it would be kinda weird if even the wowhead guidewriter was intentionaly telling you to play a worse build than all the other ones that were simmed and tested
Oh and welcome to the server Jenga
is someone saying he is doing that
Maybe his guides leave one little thing out that he will do himself, for the parses

I can see whispyr do that
and then the youtube video "Heya!"
I’d hate this discord too if I were him
its certainly harder to manage if people act like discussing another talent is discrediting his builds or something though
dunno why it has to be viewed that way
Is whispyr quiting our win or lose condition?
Its not you
in particular
its the 3412312 guys that "hey, i saw that guy that gets paid to play using double vanish and your guides dont have it, you suck"
Because the m+ community is full of apes and id much prefer they were dolphins instead

I mean dolphins are the superior animal it is understandable

Absolutely

But for the last 7 years I’ve been fighting against restealths being the majority of your damage and assa being unplayable without vanish and without restealthing and without dance
Superiorly horny maybe
And nothing I do gets through
We don’t talk about the NASA experiment enough
We do not need to LMAO
But for some reason high end m+ players are still doing it
And still feeding this delusion of stealth being the utmost importance
And I’ve been so sick of it for so many years
It’s a shit talent and it costs 4 points!! Like wtf. Subterfuge does nothing. Heal on vanishing isn’t saving you either
If you vanish, you're supposed to be safe already
We must all spread the word of whispyr about restealths
!vanish
!restealth
Explanation of why restealths aren't as important as you might think:
- Garrote does roughly 14% of your damage overall in a key. This means from 100% improved garrote uptime to 0% improved garrote uptime, you would be losing 4.6% of your overall damage
- You can add in some sanguine/rupture value from carnage, but chaining allows for higher uptime and smoother energy overall, eliminating a lot of ramp at the start of a pull
- This is compounded by the fact that you simply do not lose that many restealths (chain heavy spiteful weeks are only about -30% on stealths)
- You still have vanish which gives you plenty of options to get your stealth effects
- This has been supported by logs and by simulations, for many years
Moroes did
i think it also makes sense thematically that the ones using restealths should be subtlety players lol
Damn he’s back. That reduced duration in PvP
Don’t we tho
bonespiking has made restealths even more satisfying tbh even if numerically restealths arent like a massive dmg contributor
A tier spec cuz of singular focus thats what max said he has to be right
why tho?
for the spread?
but it doesnt, stealth is a fundamental part of the class, not any spec. stealth is class fantasy, even if outlaw arguably didnt rely on it at all for some time. blizz even has that in the class text
Yeah there is a satisfying feeling for restealths
Which is what all of this is rooted in at the end of the day
Pressing 3x gar is almost a primal instinct
New to rogue here, so I was told by my guilds rogue that the extra stealth charge talent was good
But the math doesn’t add up
oh no
cocks shotgun what’s the name of your guilds rogue
3x garrote is a pants changing moment
I just wanna chat
The new primal instinct is going to be vanish 3x rup
Lol jk jk
no kb build is rooted in satisfaction
dps numbers are our enemy!!
I see they broke you again

My guild never has a rogue
Maybe they do he just still in stealth
And the most humble
We had one in season 3, was lowest dps. Was uncoachable

bro making us look bad
our other rogue(s) usually ask me for help, so I'm at fault if they do bad

So an m+ rogue then
Was actually me
No clue, been 6 seasons of no rogue, so thinking of rogue this time around

Woops, i dropped this
Since when was quake not green anymore?
This is why you got demoted
Same time lisonna and co got green
dw, the color is irrelevant, as long as its you 
Amen
Damn, the end of an era
Don’t fucking ping me for a log review though
Or I’ll eat your ass raw
This is a threat
Good thing I don't have any logs to review
? Sounds like a good time
sounds like a promise
?
send all lfr logs to quake for auditing
Well DF was my Vietnam
9/11 was my 9/11
I just realized I think I didn't play for half of DF
same
You didn’t miss much
TWW is the exit strategy and shunned when troops come home arc for rogue.
Like I was giga casual s1, s3 I took a pretty long break and s4 I haven't played at all.
I didn’t either.
And a mf still log reviewedz was my only purpose at that point
you are my 10/23
Speaking of daggers whispyr, the embellishment agility dagger is still 2.6 speed so its fucking unusable as both assa and sub 
Ur birthday?
Wasn’t even in the game when I recorded that 
is that dagger made of plumb or why is it so slow lmfao
no. people claim god created the earth that day and you are my world 
They used a sword template for it and just renamed it I think
Ye i wasnt saying you should mention it, i just thought about it
Some spaghetti shit
Some dev has a hardon for barman shanker speed.
They made it for the new dwarves to eat, it's not meant to be used
bigger ambushes 
TWW is nothing but a failed copy paste for the most part
Like fatal intent for deathstalker
Babe?
ye, hits harder if it pierces the upper body
aim for de head
Embellishments are copy pasted
could have copypasta some better stuff
Enhancements are copy pasted
copied off the class idiot
I have some in the tank if you or blizzard need it
Was good ngl
Alexa, uwu this man
is fatal intent actually doing good dmg in raid to where you would want to crit it or nah
Amen
no glutens
It’s doing 0 damage right now because they fucked the damage calc on it
So dunno
awesome
UwU
It triggers and stuff

Like it stacks and fires off
But there’s just no damage number behind it
So it triggers for 0
sounds like my playstyle
Also they added singular focus to mastery
so always doing top dps for its spread
Which is the weirdest thing they could’ve done
Cause now it’s double dipping rupture damage
what is singular focus?
Talent on deathstalker

5% of damage dealt to unmarked target is dealt to marked target
I love double dipping
The “funnel” talent
Hell yeah
the A TIER TALENT
Now if they ever add caustic to it or sanguine
Which both don’t work
We’re like double if not triple dipping
It’s weirdga
has anyone looked at how 2mins line up in raid or will that be done closer to launch
we're gonna run out of dips very quickly
Felt fine during testing
I tested every mythic and heroic boss and didn’t notice anything insanely cringe
Second to last boss has timed intermissions that line up with CDs
Last boss is untested obviously so that could be omega cringe
hopefully they also dont line up too well and assa eats another nerf on launch haha
We're just going back to delaying second DM a little bit to line up with vanish right? No other rotational* changes?
Ok, finished the video, @Whispyr. (I watch vids at 2x speed, don't @ me)
Well, pretty much everything we talked about a few weeks ago. Absolutely it's a pain in the weapon slot and artifacts were a great solution.
Many other games use single weapon slot, even if it's "a pair of"
Good video, commented, liked for engagement, shared it here.
May the algorithm be with you
P.S. at 13:07 you say doo-doo
that reminds me of the news commentator that says "dee-dee mega doo-doo"

Are you coming back
did you giggle when he said doo doo
that guy cant be sane
Doo-doo
looks pretty good ngl
better than 99% of the people back in school
IN MORE IMPORTANT NEWS

what tmog related news do you have for us today Mr. Royal
Besides breaking my gaming char as soon as i got home... i keep having problems with powersurges
that's not tmog related wtf
how cope is it to think they won't completely redesign fights from testing til launch
that's just sad
twins

I KNOW
you know what solves your first issue?
i stole my GF's one
buy a decent office chair instead of those weak gaming chairs
there's a racoon mom guarding her babies in my backyard. I'm going to win her over with snacks and raise an army of racoons
They don’t have the manpower to change the fights and the fights got glowing reviews, I think redesigning the fights is the least of their worries atm
The raid is the only thing that works 


noble endeavour
dw I'm sure the weekly chore will be fine as well
What do you mean I saw YumyTV play dungeons in his latest video
Seemed completely fine and bugless
I'm going to train them to steal snacks for us
they get a finders fee of 90%

Yeah delves are also very bugless
I mean tbh as long as raid and one of the main features are fine
and the last boss just killed itself
they can kinda fix the rest of the garbagio
No but like
and they can always be like "lmao at least this isn't the maw"
honestly I'm kinda jealous
I mean, The Tmog event is almost over for the july entries

I just don't get the fixation with ground swirlies around so many enemies
it's august 2nd
TAG JJ
i follow the mayan calandar
who's Maya
my world ended 12 years ago
and is her calendar nice
maya nuh uh
Maya ha ha
no?
im writing rogue guide
Good luck Stealthi
me with life
Just add Lost Ark bits to it. That will spice it up.
dont think they'd like that
I’m assuming they don’t actually look at it
probably not in depth but they do go over it
to port it onto the website
i dont do that
distract them with fries on pizza
that just distract myself
unless they are on your attic
You’ve started?
You mean their attic
How’s it feel having your theorycrafting done
I’m already prepared to hear endless bitching of how bad they are with checks notes low haste
I’m too busy wondering how dashing and zoldyck changes will affect fok in single target
Meanwhile stealthi gets to write a guide
What a lucky guy
we dont
im winging it
or a good bit of it is done
Feelycraftin guide confirmed
but alot of it might be unintended
like storm + bp in st
thats like the annoying part
you wanna write a good guide
but the class is just a mess
Feelcrafting guide is the way for tww
so its just 
Write the bare bones without the krangled gameplay shit.
but i also wanna have it ready for expansion release
Also @brave gyro 2x speed is based
but i also want it to be right u know
add krangled post lanuch
so im a stressed out mess
cuz i dont wanna push the deadline even though i prolly should
0.5 to hear your voice longer

put a disclaimer. Due to state of rogue development, this guide subject to change, a lot. 
yeh and then i get to rewrite it 4 times
very goodge
everytime they fix something
Knowing the wowhead deadline makes the method deadline very strange
Have AI do it from Fuu
Method wants it a full 2 weeks earlier and idk exactly why
did they have people sending in late?
dont even think they are gonna put it up
earlier than wowhead or earlier as in before tww
until expansion launch anyway
Earlier than wowhead
first deadline is on the 7th
All guides need to obviously be done a couple days before expac at minimum
The usual rule is that guides are due the Friday before a patch
And then editing over the weekend
how much do they do with it afterwards? like checking the content etc
what im gonna end up doing is just a very basic rotation section without all the cringe shit
just basic sub gameplay
with shadowdust

90 sec cd spec let’s go
Thank you! I need allies to convince the non-believers
I’m a 1.5x myself but sometimes it’s too fast
Send cds. Reset cds for flag/blades. Get 3 sectechs in. You’re learned.
:3
-30% dps

@balmy condor
@balmy condor
i used to not get noticed but ever since i read your guide
some1 told me i need nerfs

Weird
i know lol like

Glad the guide helped though
big time
tbh my biggest struggle is sanguine
i need to find a sweet spot
there are times where i totally forget about itn
and there are times where i’m pooling 150 -180
and not dropping under
Do we have a google sheet that lists all the bugs currently?
yeah, depends on vid
Pins
I can't access that link, says the content isn't available anymore
Yeah it just white screen for me when i click

yeah just says this for me 
all my homies hate discord
It’s a bit out of date
So take it with a grain of salt
I’ve been out on vacation for 2 weeks
gotta hide some bits and pieces in there
just like blizzard when it comes to rogue no worries
I mean we’ve gotten consistent changes the last month
I think they needed a wake up call on deathstalker and stuff
After the insanely negative reviews rogue has gotten attention
Feels like they just got caught off guard
Hope we still get stuff "fixed" till the release of the xp
Hoping Is not a sub exp again
hu whuspyr
i hope recup gets fixed 
They’re like 2-3 fixes to deathstalker away from it being totally fine
what?
Hello
so you mean making it so that if a mob goes immune or removes all its debuffs we get deathstalker buff?
Deathstalker is just things disappearing = rip mark
Yeah
If they do that and buff the duration on the mark/capstone
I think we’re totally okay
Mark probably doesn’t need duration
ah and make it work with ER
But capstone is a bit tight sometimes
so youre basically saying it was sub all the way through df
Yeah ER also would be nice
Overall it was Better for all the exp ofc
I mean, specs were balanced but sub was a bit ahead
@balmy condor I got some questions in regard to Fleetfooted and a certain dagger.
Did anyone check if caustic spatter gets removed off target if you remove deadly poison during it on beta btw?
I feel like that could maybe be some jank where it doesn't notice it's your deadly poison then and just removes spatter
I bet you do, second best rogue in stoic
Woah woah woah, that's a bold claim.
I tried this yes
Wait, you joining us?
It just times out
Alright
No but there’s a better rogue
Do we know the talents Kush used?
You do it 
There probably is. I play the spec wrong on purpose cuz my arthritis fingers can't keep up
I cant even motivate myself to do the ring on prepatch
and you wanna hit dummies

same, I only want the ring
They did
Like today?
Late yesterday ye
royal said he got it pretty fast
Is it any better?
barely any playing involved
It’s still not a very impressive prepatch but it is significantly better than waiting an hour and a half to do anything
That's what I like to hear
tbf
most prepatch events are not "impressive" overall
only if you got a great rework that patch
like, BfA, WotLK and maybe Legion (and the legion one was mostly just a XP grind going crazy)

legion prepatch was insane exsanguinate fun
and I wasn't mad about it
I use impressive in the loosest sense of the term
But it’s not bad now I would say
At least you can consistently be doing something
Or just afk at boss spawn if you want
yessir
I liked shadowlands prepatch, but that was more for thematic reasons than the actual gameplay being great
you mean fly around to the spots that get cleared fast and just fly in the air? ye i would never do that, i always help the group out
Man all pre patch have been slight variations of the same thing for several expansion, no idea how this is somehow news 
Ye I wouldn’t never just only do the bosses and ignore the other events
Couldn’t be me
Oh that's me. I totally afk in the memory zones to sip tea.
i just fly to the fast spots easy as that
No shame
I think it's a cute PP, with the deviant fish and other nostalgia
I have good memories of duskwallow as a child. Prepatch does bring some of it back with going to old zones
Bonking the lazy peon felt nice
And gave me old man thoughts like "THIS is when wow used to be GOOD"
member the barrens?
Damn real
thats... a weird question
they all go to 69 (70)
like all heirlooms do
nice

what's wierd about it
and I meant w/e the new heirloom is, might be a ring
All heirloom are the same Ilvl cap, have been for many many years. So yeah, weird question to wonder about
werent the trinkets you could get in wod
going up further?
than the others
unless I remember it wrong
Not anymore, they all been standardized when the level caps went up
that was what made me ask
I remember we could use the demonbane heirlooms
when levelling
ye but as they were released they got higher
until the next time they pushed heirlooms
Not that it matters much the number of uses heirlooms have are.... Limited. But yeah that's not been a thing since forever ago. They all still follow level cap.
rather redundant nowadays anyways
even if they made new prepatch heirlooms that level with you until new max on release
we are basically in full heirloom gear with mythic gear anyways
503 ilvl atm
xdd
been doing some tmog runs and socialising with new guild on disc for wow related things
mainly still playing other games, other hobbies til tww
no need to get more gear, been invited to a few mythic runs but it feels pointless
guild wasnt raiding s4 so i became a catgirl
and now guild is deadge so maybe catgirl forever
but i need prepatch gear for transmog so had to resub
I mean heirlooms would change anything then, they too low Ilvl to compete with anything 
royal was right
they were released at the end of wod
and scaled up to legion max lv immediately
that way they kinda would be relevant
for what its worth
will see later, didnt start it yet
Post buff, its fast, but you still need atleast 1 rotation per map
so, 3 hours total gameplay
sounds like a job for my mage
Actually unsure if you need to participate in events or not to get rewarded, since i always helped, but its fast nontheless, even if you just kill the final boss
Sounds like a job for some random guy in lfg I can click follow on
Pics or fake
im sorry, not irl catgirl
Despair
ignore the scruffy ass beard and hair i havent been to the barber in a while
just look at cat
SO CUTE
Smiley cat
so fun issue ive just found with prepatch
the memories are capped at 20
and they drop in groups of 5 from the boss
so its going straight to my mail and i cant pick them up
Practising stealth
Don't you only need 20?
Delete 2
but it wont let me pick them up
easy
True
My cat, showing extreme discipline
make a ticket instead
long cat
That shit would never work with any of my animals
Also yea he hella long
Yeah he's yuge
oh wait, not offtopic
Hi, does fatebound change anything in rotation?
No
well I mean, make sure you use 5+ CPs
or them sweet delicious ER charged nodes
if I think of those as cookies, its not so bad
is ER mandatory?
well theres nothing else better. Sooo it kinda wins by default
ER flips more coins, thats pretty much all there is to it
yo just to double check without the s3/s4 4set we dont do envenom chains, we just maintain the envenom uptime roughly above 50% energy right?
i go shrouded
cuz big rogue says so
SBS feels good but like shrouded just helps with ramp imo makes opener feel smooth
ask @balmy condor
What I do
!pooling
Read About Pooling
Video
TLDR:```- Outside of Cooldowns, you want to wait until your envenom is in pandemic/around 1 second in order to proc tier. This is the core concept of "chaining", where you clip envenoms back to back
- If it's getting uncomfortable to chain, or you have to let envenom drop, pool back up to around 80% energy, and then start another chain
- Always wait to envenom, never wait to mutilate/ambush. You want to generate your combo points as soon as possible, and then evaluate whether you should pool or use a finisher
- Without 4 piece, chaining envenoms has no benefit and you can try to be above 50% energy for sanguine
- With 4 piece, the chain takes priority over sanguine and you would play around the tier, not sanguine```The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and tier procs which is a more efficient energy use
Ah gotcha so no SBS
Without tier it’s kinda whatever
Now with the talent tho it becomes less definite and you can do whatever I think
Don’t have to be under 50, don’t have to be over
Rapid injection is okay but nothing crazy
if ur at like 20% energy or something and envenom is about to go out r u going back to 50% or just kinda envenoming
VIBEY
Yes open wowhead
am i bad if i’m hanging around 150 and dipping occasionally?
i swear this is the hardest
No
sheeesh watching Ellesmere stream and the sin rogue in his beta M+ is clappppping

my sanguine hangs around 7-8% overall dmg

i’m guessing that’s okay
That’s not really a metric to value
Tell him to cut it out we don’t wanna get nerfed
Jk jk
hahah yeah i mean he's ripping well over 5 mill DPS on some pulls and even smallish pulls hes finishing at like 2.4 mil
Who’s he playing with
Maybe
yeah i mean its anectodal one stream, im just saying, he's making the dmg look big right now maybe its BS who knows
there is that sass i was looking for
and its at least 20% of why i love you
also due to your video today i've coined and extremely creative new phrase - MDGA
Made Dagger Great Again
Make*
All i know is im willing to die on the sword for daggers
okay makes sense
i’m curious is envenoming first before your DM kingsbang window worth
for the 30% poison chance
Yes that’s why we do it
okay so i was doing it right
Envenom deathmark shiv kb
does it have to be 5 CP envenom
Yes
hm how much dmg do you lose if you forget
Like 0.5%
is sin also the best 1v1 class or only sub is?
sry
so like let’s say i apply empowered garrote right
i have 6 seconds to reapply if i want
do you ever double refreshed when you have 1 second left?
or is that a dps loss
What does that even mean
You wanna press double garrote in stealth on 1 target or?
If so then no, that was only something we did when we had exsanguinate
shiieet mages get custom responses to their feedback, yet again! I can't wait to support the main characters of TWW with my 3.6%
3.6% Atrophic debuff, this is our purpose
oh
Kinda insane how one class get attention and other is forgotten
Thats not exactly a good representation of the situation thought, is it. Blizz went :
i worded it wrong
then we gave feedback for months with 0 acknowledgement or, to use their words, 'refinement'
so feedback was given into the void for absolutely nothing. It wasn't about expectations out of nowhere, buf if you going to ask for our feedback it's reasonable to expect some form of communication in regards to that feedback
Mages crying about fixing double dipping so blizzard revert bug fix cool
What other class have impact like that
It’s just as butt as any other racial
so like for instance i’ve put empowered garrote but i refresh it one time like i don’t let it just do a normal duration
the passives are p nice sounding though
You don’t press it again at the end of the 6 second window you wait until it’s in pandemic and then vanish garrote
Is the hybrid still the one to play in +13 keys
ok there we gon
that’s what i meant ty
Whichever you prefer
Also Whisp.. I enjoyed the dagger video
Ty
I was laying in bed when I played it and didn't realise how high my YT volume was and his HIYA startled the cat
I mean you press it once
true
then just, keep on going on
but why do we have it
is it kinda stupid we have to press it once now? yeah, sure, but I mean, 1gcd
Maybe it'll get looked at when we get our inevitable updates in 11.1.. or was it 11.2
think about it
slice n dice doesn’t feel cool to press at all
it’s just maintenance
atleast for me who’s new to the spec
I mean it’s a maintenance spec. Maintain dots. Maintain envenom. maintain your sanity while you pool
RIght now its more of a 'it is what it is' vibe.
and I mean, do we really "maintain" SND 
I guess we could hard cast it regularly to actually get recuperator to work 
You maintain it by casting envenom but I get what you mean
Read About Pooling

TLDR:```- Outside of Cooldowns, you want to wait until your envenom is in pandemic/around 1 second in order to proc tier. This is the core concept of "chaining", where you clip envenoms back to back
- If it's getting uncomfortable to chain, or you have to let envenom drop, pool back up to around 80% energy, and then start another chain
- Always wait to envenom, never wait to mutilate/ambush. You want to generate your combo points as soon as possible, and then evaluate whether you should pool or use a finisher
- Without 4 piece, chaining envenoms has no benefit and you can try to be above 50% energy for sanguine
- With 4 piece, the chain takes priority over sanguine and you would play around the tier, not sanguine```The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and tier procs which is a more efficient energy use
I wish they would combine flying daggers and thrown precision
Two talents that shouldn't be seperate
Flying daggers in general is pointless with sanguine now
exactly
At least with venom rush there was a bit of thought on the choice but it’s just unplayable now
when i do the burst deathmark shiv kingsbane do i thistle tea after or in between shiv and kingsbane
Thistle tea during shiv when you will not waste the energy
what
there any bugs with MA not working?
so deathmark shiv tea kingsbane?
some rogue in trade chat complaining about it, just curious
If you are not wasting any of that energy yes
i dont really understand the energy waste part ill keep it a g
Tea gives 100 energy
You want it to give you 100 energy, and not 78 or whatever because you ended up at max energy
tldr: <200 energy, tea. >=200 dont tea
Not to my knowledge
It only works for 3 seconds still. That ain’t a bug tho
Another bug to the funny list tho
how big of an issue is that i sometimes cast finishers at 5 combo instead of 6
You should be finishing on 5
takes getting used too
also one thing that has seemed to been helping me is
i watch peoples CDs
if they pump and dump first packs
i wait to death mark the next one
and i’ll just kingsbang
i could be bad but i’m tired of shit dying when my KB not even done
Holding ain't it chief
if the keys is 10 or below it feels really shitty
Can we please have @balmy condor be the rogue class designer for Blizzard? I'm tired of this grandpa
who’s the grandpa that designs rogue
My bad
This happens until what was the old 22ish keys if you DM same target
If you're running low enough keys to where that happens, you're also running low enough keys to where Sudden Demise feels fucking gorgeous, so think about the good rather than the bad
Or just don’t think at all
just play with shit players

Hey thats why I respected these guys in everbloom;
they respected our time and our need to cleave
BIS KB targets fr
There were a lot of good fellas in throne too
But yea also that, either you got good targets like that to KB or you've got such a heavy prio target that you aren't even mad that it dies fast unless you only care about overall
First time? 
What’s a silence that’s my vdh‘s job
^ fact
I am only here to make number go up
^ fact
Mfers will talent into improved poisons over iron wire for 0.5% dps but then still take a second vanish charge

Eleem you don’t understand
This guy has more io he’s right
Why would anyone listen to you guys
I mean that is a factual statement

Listen to Elmo
Who the fuck is Elmo
I am being sarcastic
True, you should consider smoking 4 packs of cigarettes each day too

Elmo is me
Hello Elmo
If I wanna be as good as him I need to catch up first in smoked cigarettes
he just like me fr
So id need to smoke a lot more
Does it have to be cigarettes or can it be snus too?
But
