the speech bubble is below your name
Jokes on you I can’t read
imagine if dashing and doomblade swapped spots like the people requested
apparantly we must stick to the lore of poisons and bleeds so it cant happen
We need more bleed and poison types
I wanna inject acid into people
Ik it’s not poison
I mean this only matters in m+, dashing below TTK makes sense since the two synergize so well. Doomblade is just a bad talent that picked the worse part of the legendary to follow
But hush
Instead of the entirety
It would be cooler tho
So that’s all that mayyers
it doomblade undertuned then?
can it do more dmg or something
atm its just a puddle of shit we gotta walk through to get sbs
Wowhead
Patch 9.0.5 update: Mutilate's additional Bleed damage effect increased to 45% (up from 30%). Mutilate deals an additional 45% Bleed damage over 8 sec.Envenom damage increased by 5% for each Bleed you have on the target.
This is the legendary version of Doomblade
It provided envenom buff + the bleed
Ye we need some more envenom damage
stop being resonable
I mean no
But Doomblade in current state is uh
based and real
if envenom is not 96% of my dmg, why even play
Just a node to get to a talent
Should be 97
May as well be blank
just delete it or make a new talent then
instead of focusing on muh tier boners
wheres that rogue dev
ill do it myself
Correct Doomblade just natty 1’d
yep
it is gatewalling us to sbs and brick walling us to m+ st damage
and if all talents were great, then why even have pathways or anything just let us blanket pick anything
Make envenom extend our bleeds so we REALLY don’t have to press anything else
Make bleeds do all our damage and give no energy back so I only press envenom during CDs
you literally dont need sbs for m+
yes you do
its literally 1 of the talents you can drop for something else
like what
is it a talent that feels good? yeha sure it does, but its not "needed" at all, it just removes a single FoK from your aoe opener lol
the beauty of doomblade and SBS being together is if you drop SBS, you get to drop 2 talents
^ that aswell
I like it in M+ because of muscle memory
People don’t take SBS for the damage they take it for the setup time wich I guess could be better for lower keys
So I understand running it always in lower keys, but when you get higher I can see someone dropping it for more damage
Same situation with IW
It’s a utility talent you should replace w damage for higher keys
where do i go now @royal lantern
yeah u get to take TTK and ur dashing
to the spec tab
and never be able to use cds on aoe cos it would take 100 gcds to set up?
and change to sub
SBS saves 1 GCD
Bro what level are you playing
2s?
Even on like 10s you prolly still have time
i gave up pugging at 3200
SBS is nice, yes. But you can get damage from other things that beat out SBS
So you should know that you can drop SBs then
From experience
not really
real
even my unconventional gb build uses sbs
That looks…
Ohhh ok
its full and its locked in
It isn't full 🦀
If you want to full 🦀 you have to commit to the bit and drop deathmark
nah that build needs to drop kingsbane for arterial
doesnt even matter anymore tiers over
Needs to drop IC too
I spent way too much time on this
otherwise it's not unconventional enough
If someone brought that to a GB run is fucking kick them or tell them to leave
we need to sawp doomblade and dashing or its gg got assa in m+
Why do people call it the crab build
nah IC is key to bleedmaxing
?
because it looks like a crab
peench peench
bleedmaxing is conventional
Oh haha
it does top dam lmao
Can I see the crab build then
it is complete controll
No not really
You can make a build that does more
Aka
tanks are never dying casts are not going off
The regular build
You can do that without iron wire
its also fun af to play
As many people do in high keys
people who do high keys are miserable af
based
with a group u can push to like 16s? and have fun but any higher and its work
Incorrect
People who play keys are miserable
Become an RP player
Haha oh my god
KB being your only cd
It doesn’t make sense though…
WAIT I WAS GONNA SAY CRABS CANT HOLD A KINGBSNE
But the fucking
Image of the crab knife exists
Nvm lore accurate
time to run some 10s
is there something I can drop MA for 
my love

is this it?
Nah
drop ma for lightweight shiv 
I have both shiv talents already
I remember you insulting me when I first joined and asked a brain dead question
they are good with arterial
/pos
you need blindside for boss execution
@balmy condor watched your last video, and that was the add i had on my sidebar
"not sponsored" my ass
lore accurate
The way you say that
Implies you literally like
Chop their heads off
“Forget the talent, he goes to the block
french rogues
Also genuinely gonna miss gb
theres some big boy adds in gb that need it
NOOOO
Throngs get whipped again if he no finish
i wonder if people are gunna roll rogue for next seas

Tbh for like most of the community it’s if they enjoy it
Reason I’m thinking of changing to BM
im going rogue and ele sham
Because I enjoy the fantasy and rota
Do you know smeef/some guy
ele sham for raid or m+?
heeeeey, we need a ele shaman next tier 
why did it ping you
jfc discord
Because it knows
nope
I got that ele blood
both
Ele sham in our guild
i think a ranged alt might be important
Posted a gift in ptr ages ago showing how fucking insane shams burst was
im raiding in 2 guilds, one guild is old frens for aotc 1 night a week
He showed a gif of sham doing 20 mil burst
other is for rogue for CE
And was what brought a lot of attention to it
He got his own command in the shaman discord
That would play the gif
oh yea i saw that
the bugged stormkeeper
And I’m p sure he had a hand in it getting nerfed
Hence his details name in our raids now being “some guy”
He is also genuinely insane at the spec
ele sham is fun as fuck
Like normally top dps in our kills
He even beat me in overall damage in our rashnan kill
I still got like top ST dps
There was a time where whenever he talked in chat people told him to fuck off
Cause he brought attention to how much damage ele did
And it was getting nerfed
Yea ofc
But he was the first one to like
Show it off cause he really liked the PtR rota
i wish rogue was as cool as ele sham
all the visuals and the new ascendance is just so badass
Yea
Tbh, and I know I’m a broken record
Exactly how I feel about BM
Like finishing a fight and seeing 5+ beasts summoned just gathering around me
I’m like
“Damn that’s sick”
yep lol
And plus I love collecting hunter pets
Love how they make it so you can tame raid and dungeon bosses
my hunter has all the spectral tigers
never did level him to 80 tho
he still in DF gear
Fair rn I have
The raven lord boss
Thunder paw
Oondasta
And fetid
Every time I try hunter, I get super bored 😂
But I love all the aesthetics
They get some really cool drip too
i would genuinely main bm hunter if it didnt make me fall asleep
it has everything i would want in a spec
except for interesting gameplay
lmao
havent tried/paid attention to the pack leader rework though maybe that helps
ye i think its the easiest spec in the game
its still 100% passive
a WA to track 3 frenzy stacks then just spam kill command
nothing changed there really
unlucky
like, its more "pack leader" cus it summons pets now instead of "kill command does more dmg"
but its still just "you summon 1 of 3 random pets that do different things that do dmg"
Tbh
no controll, no real gameplay, just a pet appears and does dmg
BM is simple, but I like it for that
ye sure
oh its definitely a good thing to have specs like bm hunter in the game
I mean something looking cool is often equally, if not more, important than it being fun to play
You dtill have tools and you can technically do some stuff to increase your dps. However, my main enjoyment is the flavour
im not saying i dislike it because its simple, i just dislike how it plays
Yea
Hell if it was shit I’d still play it
i actually really enjoy ret and its also very simple
That’s completly understandable
for 95% of players, its literally just "looks cool " and "does high dmg" lol
I hate boomie despite it being simple
That’s the beauty of specs
and yeah a big reason for liking ret is that it looks cool as fuck
The flavour
if ret paladin was less flashy, it would be less popular with the same gameplay
you pop giant glowing wings and summon giant fucking hammers from the sky
If it was just
“Spec 1” “spec 2” “spec 3” it would be boring
Also
Paladin is a classic fantasy role
you mean like "eviscerate" and "green eviscerate"?

HAHAHA SHUSHHH
and with rogue we just poke people with a green or purple trace
Stop invalidating my point

XD
lol
Tbh in my head
My goblins an alchemist that constantly tries different potions and flasks
So she does sometime make posions
And decides
“I wonder if I can kill someone’s with this”
:D
But hey that’s just lil headcannon things
I need to make more for the rest of my characters
surely u have a matching alchemist mog for that
Not rlly haha
I should make one though X)
I saw a survey once that mentioned an alchemist like spec
Probably never going to happen, but I'd player healer so fucking fast it wouldn't be funny
+10 Grim batol... 16 deaths.. timer failed... but the enemies did bleed
most scuffed run I have ever seen
on the dragon boss I somehow got threat and meleed to death 
I assume my dk did not press a single button
just realized we had quite the theme to our comp
Based caustic denier
mass aoe question (think first pull of ara all the way to mini boss): do we still garrote and rupture as many as we can, or just 6ish and then go into normal fan spam rotation? is there a cutoff point where putting out bleeds just isn't worth the GCDs? i guess also important is that this is a +10, so mobs don't live suuuper long but still probably 45 seconds...
Garrote is super good
Rupture after 5 is not worth
To mention: garrote from stealth
Not random ones
In a +10 just basic opener and try to get ur cds on miniboss asap, in a 10 youll almost never get ur full KB off
Looks like your spriest and awah's feral 
I did 1.4 the other day on my spriest!!! Hater’s
do we still play 2pc+2pc until 670 ilvl?
No
so with the changes we would go for the new 4PC?
yes
He's huge

Do you guys Marco TT to Shiv?
I usually only use TT on 2nd shiv during the opener but I’m seeing a lot of people use it on first as well
Yes
!tea
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:
/cast Shiv
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
ok dumb question but on subsequent DMs would that not use tt on the first shiv and not the 2nd, which seems slightly suboptimal?
or does it just not matter
Doesn't matter
that's wild
a lot of tea's value is in the energy not the mastery especially since they nerfed kb a few times so juicing kb is less important
When kb is doing less than a dn envenom 

Can't wait for my next patch dry shiv DN envenom to be more than a whole kb
and since it's 25 seconds you'd need to rupture in there anyways
so its more like 2
not mindlessly re-apply dots cus the tierset is shit??
Tf is sub even
a burst class that doesnt wanna lose its burst to a random chance
everyone who actually tried it says its fine
How does it look right now Sin > Sub or Sub > Sin?
Yeah but I’m a hater so?
real
Damn
its been longer since u touched me tho

ask on tuesday when tuning gets done again
and then the next tuesday
😄
and then the tuesday after when they tune again
Damn i wanna go tubing with tony
There is plenty of snow for it
Yeah same here
The only thing I’m tubing is his colon

okay bye going to work
Be safe mister nugz
Until it gets parried
how many say that because sub is overtuned?

All my homies hate Subtlety
Its actually barely above assa last i heard
2.4?
"bro the tier set is not that bad in gameplay!"->when top dmg
"wtf they doing, this plays so bad!"->when its not top dmg
Solid 10%
100% lol
Think? The sub 4 set still dropping 66% of the time
or not working 66% of the time
I mean he does we talked about it already
Bro i am completely fine with the degen gameplay either way
A burst spec holding damage for. Burst
Isnt really that hard of a concept
Quake I swear on my mother and father and grandmother and grandfather I will pummel your bussy into submission
thats "playing" around a shity oversight
Doesn’t even matter we can at least sleep good at night knowing we don’t play outlaw
is sub overtuned tho?
on ptr? ye
Its not
its why people instantly hype it up for rogue
Other specs sim like 15-20% higher
Sub is playable
Brother I’m about to give you backshots so cataclysmic I’m going to exorcise the ohio man out of you (because I’ll be the tennessee man in u)
Its just assa being undertuned
!sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
🙂
Dks and warriors laughing at rogue
Call him Deathwing the way he starts the bussy cataclysm

i saw some warri and dh sims that make sub look weak
Calling sub overtuned when warrior 3.8 mil exe sims
but dh sims high cause of bugs iirc

3.1 sims just natty
Like
Yeah arms is CRACKED
Big tuning patch coming, sub and sin upper middle end of tuning and maybe the best melee
Trust
Rogue back on top

need some actual rogue changes for that to happen 
we are not tops
it really isn't tbh
Fury is 3.0 lol
Outlaw on top somehow post tuning
Wow
Warrior is just cranking
massive true
Yeah idk sub never seemed that overtuned to me
God damn that made me laugh
Cranking on ptr is a bad thing
Just best of the rogue specs rn
Means you’re getting fucked sooner than later (ignore enhance)
funny thing there is
idk if i'd even say that ngl
if they nuked enh
ele would be just as strong

like, enh/ele tuning rn is soooooo insane
Crazy
but then they use ascendance and pump 129million dps again
Rogue is going to be just fine, water will find its level
Nah see if rogue got buffed I'd hear about it non stop because too many DH players I know complain about rogue lol
huh
People can’t take it that rogue players are so handsome and skilled and they get jealous
HUH
I am indeed a cutie rogue player lol




REAL


Can i cloak beam in p2 of Queen?
Am I crazy, or does Ambush miss a ton......just coming back since Legion.
huh?
thats not a thing
you can get parried if you hit a raid boss from the front
thats it
Must have had something keybound wrong......it was just initiating auto attack......guess that's why mark never got applied, lol.
If you get pulled out of stealth by like boss aoe or for example try to shadowstep ambush from stealth it sometimes autos
Do you have a start auto attack macro I think that used to be a thing macrod into a few buttons
No ambush macro.....probably me screwing up while relearning. It's working after I redid the keybinds. Thanks for the help.
Will do.

hey my sneaky friends any idea why cevs profile is no longer recoloring my plater bar green when the target has caustic spatter on it?
Do you have dsm on it?
It never did it with caustic. It recolored with sbs right
Or if it did my colorblind ass couldn’t tell
idk maybe im confused but i was messing with my ui a bunch last night and now my plater is no longer recoloring my caustic splatter target
it was definitely cevs profile i was using but maybe i downloaded an extra mod of that function or something i dont remember lol
He changed it
I redownloaded
But still don’t see it but I also use the wa function because again colorblind

I’m using whisp’s stuff now just to change things up after using cevs for all of DF
It’s like when you rearrange your room as a kid and it feels like a whole new home

yeah i fixed it some how idk what was goin on
Ask and shall receive ig
Yep
Can’t wait for the 50% envenom buff
yo guys what is the fastest way to level to 80 Im 26 rn but no one queues to timewalking dungeons
timewalking dungeons and questing is pretty much it
wow shop
So with tier buff we are simming like 2.6 now instead of 2.3-2.4?
pay for a boost
with gold or irl cash, to blizz or boosters
I dont have gold 😦 anyway Im 33 rn
also not a bad option yeah
i remember in the past valsharah was one of the fastest places to level, so its probably still pretty good
Legion also has good campaigns imo
spamming timewalking is so fast ngl
if you can go tank or healer spec
just sit in timewalking dungeons
how is the next tiers design for assasianton
Keep on stabbin
it could be significantly worse thats for sure
tried some assa on the PR
PTR
spec isn't great
in m+
other specs do more aoe than us and also like 60% more single target so
dont see any reason for it to be good at all
its always joever here in rogue discord
granted havoc and bm are amongst the most op classes now on ptr but still
well, my guild is full of idiots who dont understand how to interrupt in m+ so
I'll be fine

i think sub might be better in keys
tbh
the single target now is just completely unviable in sin
like in season 1
you could offset your bad ST from your AoE
but other classes have better aoe too
so really no point to play sin
is sub even good enough to be picked over other classes tho?
maybe it's not a rog m+ meta tier
I just did almost 5mil overall in a ptr m+ what are you saying, been testing sin and it feels great lo
St is weak still but its aoe feels massive
I had some cheesed gear
which duengon?
Priory
Thanks king
did u end up on 5mil after the duengon?
Nah it was like 4.6 or something overall
I can check if i have the details still when i get back to pc
i mean, sure but there is really no point
u do like half the dps on single target compared to a fire mage
Priory seems like it has decent pulls for sin as well.
Also a 2t boss fight and big aoe on the last boss
Help offset the st issue
There is def a point, assas good. If you prefer the other specs tho just play the other specs lol
thats a loose definition of good
Yeah priory felt very good for sin
Idk i think it feels the same or even better after the hotfix tbh
compared to other specs
I think rogue will look good for keys, maybe not "godcomp" but it will be seen in high keys no doubt in my mind
the single target of this spec is absolutely atrocious borderline griefing
other specs have gained
Its st was bad in s1 too. I know Yoda just put assa as an A tier spec on his most recent update too
Imagine basing what you’re gonna play on ptr numbers.
Couldn’t be me.
he played 1 key with a sin rogue
good data
I mean, isn't sin always kinda good because of damage profile? Sure ST sucks, but if there are no other PI targets, and since haste is biggest DPS gain in ST, it might make it acceptable
They tune every week through rwf and then after it ends. Kinda wild to think this is final tuning.
Its all guessing at this point no matter what unfort, but iv played many ptr keys as sub and assa, and sin feels very good, super fluid in these dungeons mostly as well, but sub has potential to be better. Who knows tho, its ptr lololol just know i cant agree that sin feels bad
The new set bonus change is a big buff, right? That seems really good now.
Youll have a better pi target than sin forsure in ur key like mage or lock
U just said you hard disagree on sub
I am confusion
thing is, if you do trivial content it doesnt matter but if u play high keys this season assa ST is a real liability to your group it only works cause your enhance overcompensates

if you actually try playing like a comp with another low ST spec in your party it just doesnt work
all these garfield emotes everywhere XD
u would need to get carried
well then that makes things more diffcicult

This tuning isn’t final. Please. I beg all of you. Find something else to do than talk about shit that’ll change in 5 days.
Dont recall that but maybe a typo, i hard disagree that sin is bad. Sub or assa both feel good with different damage profiles, played both, both feel fine. Neither will be god comp imo but both will be fun
unless they rework assa it will do forever shit ST


Me
3% aura buff will not change anything
Reading comprehension
I don't think a rework is needed tho, depends on what you consider rework also but yeah
Bro rogue might be
Not sin but sub maybe
Hard disagree
Things feel good, dont doom, also dont be bothered either way its ptr lol. Send it and try to enjoy it
Stab things and prosper friends
Its ptr
who gives a shit doe, if u don't like it don't play it. go with the fotm
10 more tuning passes will happen, goodluck boys
its playable as long as you have a good transmog
Real
Yeah I really like my t2 female orc with shards of azzinoth. Oldschool is the best
I must say tho, this new tier looks pretty good
I like it
I want to scream this at everyone who comes in here and posts details and acts like the tuning there is final
Happens all day everyday lol, people gotta learn to take ptr with a BIG grain of salt
I prefer it with garlic powder so I’m going to yell at you about it
well dudes, don't act like PTR cycle are irrelevant
you can get conclussions out of it
in fact is the only info one can go about
the irrelevant information that people are sharing from PTR
is still irrelevant
just because it's the only source of information
Yes but they tune the day of the patch. The day of season. The first two weeks into the season and then immediate after rwf. We are pretending they leave it as is for what
doesn't mean all of the information is accurate, relevant, or important
Like for example enh shaman. You can't know how it's gonna end, sure. But looking at how they have been tuning it, one could say with a certain degree of confidence, that it's not going to be as OP as in s1.
Or at least one could say it looks like blizz doesn't want them to be as OP as s1.
(slur)
\ 

Yeah and the tuning isn’t final so why we gotta sit in here every day like they aren’t gonna tune more when the last 5 patch cycles have shown we’re not even close to done.
You wanna play fotm go ahead but at least wait til tuning is final to cry about what’s op and not
I’m not saying you specifically
Because wow is dead rn and ppl like to yap
also talking about it is good for the spec I think

I mean talking about changes we’d like to see or improvements to the spec is fine but tuning is so useless
Maybe they can fix class tree so we have less nodes for damage in there. And fucking shadow heart is a real talent
But ptr tuning is useless to discuss
I don’t think it’s fully useless, they don’t gut the top specs for m+ they gut whatever happens in raid
yes, kinda. But not totally I think
Whispyr shotgunning monster procced realz
a man of culture
Indeed
No shot
more bpm = more apm = more dps (???)
Always
Just to fulfill the prophecy
Sorry
Show me a major patch .1 .2 .3 where they don’t do major tuning day of and I’ll shotgun a monster rn
More bpm, more apm = more dps, realz just leaked outlaw buffs gg





fuck
It’s actually a prot warrior tier king
Insane apm
Revert it
Bring it back buff it
glad stance finally back
Even if it is, it aint
REAL
Real
heart is a muscle, train until failure
wait a second
Is this real life?
@balmy condor where is this on the tier list
i randomly show up to discords sometimes
it's aight
They do big changes even in the live version of the game. They need objective data and player feedback.
So yeah it's useles to talk about because they will change things. But at the same time you have to talk about it to make the changes happen.
can you shotgun a monster anyway?
No cause I drank it already
and ?
Have you tried this one
Theres always room for another one
So many monsters we don’t have in German/Austria
Im so jelly
this one legit just came out afaik
my dad saw it and was like wtf that's new
brought like 5 home
Man I was looking to order some of the ones we don’t have
But then again
Paying for shipping from the us
Is a bit rough for some monster
Bro is down bad for the new monster flavours
lmao
pause
I gotta stack up for the tier bro
I got told today I might be free to play rogue instead of getting into dh jail because ours bailed
If that goes through
I’ll need a lot of monster
Hi sin rogues, it's been awhile.
Im not sleeping
No
Till tier is over
Hey
Its maybe a bit better
I‘m still rocking Lewis Hamilton edition as my go to
I’ll look for it this weekend
The problem is my guy signed with Ferrari so his monster sponsor is gone
And it might be gone soon
It’s a serious problem because wtf do I drink then
My gf recommended water
She’s not allowed to speak anymore
orange juice
that shit ass
I'm gonna say it
Water is the sensible healthy option
anti-based of you to be sluggin on lewis hamilton piss
It’s hit or miss for everyone I talked to
People either love or hate it
It’s just a worse version of the sugar free peach tbh - which is not available anywhere
Fuck can you do
what
I take the next best option
I have to go to „American Candy“ stores to buy peach
maybe I just shut up
yeh that's wild
I was told to come here but nothing happenings
thats what they called me in college
Armin why you set us up the bomb
I told you to come here because there was a guy saying realz doesn’t talk to rogues anymore
And the second after
He types in here
He just doesn’t like outlaw fr
realz doesnt talk to outlaw rogues

Well we provide lots of feedback but he must not like it.

You guys also sent him death threats so I can see why he avoids your channel
That is not representative of outlaw as a whole.
ehh
Doesn’t really matter
It does, if he wants feedback he should get it from the outlaw enjoyers.
Not the trolls
i think he just wanted to react to a gif of whispyr shotgunning a monster

meanwhile outlaws tracking his ass down wherever he appears

The class discords are skewed towards high end players in the type of feedback that gets provided too, thats not to say that its useless, but its not necessarily the best ideas for the game as a whole
im just here to skew the discord back towards low end skill level
Same
same
Well after killing off the outlaw player base what do you expect from remaining outlaw enjoyers. It's not happy feedback. But it can still be constructive feedback.
#wearethe99%
I like big burst in not so many seperate hits 
You realize rogue playerbase is very low in general
Theres more outlaw players than sub players this expac 
i liked the suggestion that sectec be split into a million hits that all summon a clone
Sin had a bit of a comeback because it was deemed op at some point in the season and people rerolled like they always do
But in general rogue has a very low playrate
only monk and evoker have fewer people playing them
Actually we’re below monk
we're WHAT
you rerolled to sin because it was op
i rerolled to sin because i got old
we are not the same
We rerolled?
Yeah but also outlaw playerbase dropped by at least half in this season alone
Cause all the yellows are fotm for m+ anyways
I rerolled before but I rerolled to sin because it’s just feral with more qol 
The caravan moves on
my guild asked me if i could learn sub for smolderon
You’d probably see the same increase in like shaman
Is it new motto for blizzard to push people to reroll?
The community is the one pushing for rerolls
Also its not new
the community and its obsession with tier lists

Every other week people go NEW GOD COMP??? OP OP PLAY NOW!!!
What’s blizzard supposed to do about that
Yeah but that's also based on tuning of each spec.
No, its based on the perceived strength of the spec
Players simply find the highest tuned specs.
Those are not the same thing a lot of the time, esp early on in the season

We’re talking like the upper range of title determining what’s meta and not
ridiculous that the top 0.03% of keys makes your average +10 enjoyer reject some specs over others
smh
Welcome to m+
It is but that’s not blizzards fault
It is what it is in any game that has any competitive incentive
thanks, been here since legion 
theres quite literally nothing blizzard can do about it yeah
they nerf whatever the best is, something else is now the best
even if its literally just able to do like 1-2 key levels higher at the literal cutting edge of pushing
And tell me tuning hasn’t become better
Tuning has been better than ever tbh
I meant they totally could tune around the top 0.03% of keys, and then wreck the bottom 99% in the process
Idk what we smoking

i just play whatever class i have the better transmog for currently
CAN WE PLAY THIS SPEC NOW?

post your transmog and i'll decide if you're allow to play or not
You’re so based today
Murloc onesie or reroll
I get your guys point, but I believe you can tune specs to be on par. Their dmg should come with mastering the spec. You don't have to make every class have the same abilities. Like they made shaman meta. That was because they got numerous buffs. Tuned highest. They know how to tune. Even bad enh shamans can't beat me even though outlaw is lower dmg, it's a skill issue if they can't perform. Blizzard can tune all dps spec this way and performance is based on the player skill.
i need a murloc onesie
cant afford transmogs
btw evasion doesn't work on final boss of siege if your back is turned for Bait and Switch 🙂
Bro outlaw has a flat line by design, how do you want blizzard to tune around m+ keys being made to be pulled around cds
evasion doesnt work on anything if your back is turned
Just my thoughts
Don’t turn your back on your enemies
Would you like to say that you should just do the same damage as burst specs
It is a magical DR
and boss is in the middle of the map xD
Bait and Switch should give magic dr regardless of facing positon
oh thats the hero talent thing
You sure you pressed it before the cast
idk i dont actually play this game anymore i just talk shit here
Sure, but like. What skill level do you tune to?
so cant help
always pre feint but i wanted to save energy so used evasion lmfao
Based

They already picked the skill level they tune to and its portals. So 10’s. All specs can complete them fine.
Quakemother’s skill? Or quakewar
I don’t think they really tune around that all too much, there’s some m+ tuning here and there but in the end it’s mostly raid tuning
No Makeitquake
And obviously every spec can get portals ye
Unlucky for your alts
i cant wait for the whispyr post to finally hit
Same I’ve been waiting
except they can't because you just introduced like another 3 problems with this lmao. Your whole thing is that they need to tune what they have better, since you're not pleased with the current state. And your idea to that is to make them try and tune specs differently dependant on skill, which now opens a whole host of issues from like "what should the floor be of the spec", cause now you have to tune like what, LFR? normal? +2? +5?, and then you still have to tune for the normal range that they tune for with like high end heroic/low end mythic, and like +10 to +12 keys, and then they need to also tune the specs YET AGAIN for the super "skilled", but even that isn't enough because skilled players are not all in highly organized like top 50 key groups which are the ones raving about meta from on high, so you gotta tune for THOSE guys as well, but that's not even skill that's organization and planning, so now you have to tune like encounter design to block that. The whole thing is just one gigantic jenga tower of balancing, they would legit never be able to keep up
HELL YEAH
Based whispyr
instead of tuning a spec for one goal
you just split into it like 5 goals
and also dragged encouter balancing around specs into the mix
absolute clusterfuck
Wdym whispyr, just make every spec good at raiding, st, cleave, aoe and prio damage
I don’t get your issue
It’s a skill issue on blizzards end
yeah true true
Much words have been spoken to me

make the spec i play good at all of that idc about the rest
and also for average
Yeah I mean once neurolink hits
It just detects your skill
And you get a % buff
Holy someone patent it
should of course also be tuned for ST and aoe regardless of talents of course
Make it so when I play good I top dmg
like can't have big aoe talents selected and then be bad in single target
that wouldn't make sense
I mean yeah, that happens when your idea sucks


I can understand there's so many levels to tune for. If my words don't sound constructive than I don't know what else to say.

never said it wasn't constructive
(slur)
\ 

the desire to want things to be well balanced isnt bad
it's entirely constructive, and I believe that you have the best interest at heart
it's just not thought out

it's kinda the problem with a lot of things
like people are like "man assa/sub energy outside of cds feels terrible, they should fix that"
and then you dig into like how that should happen
and it very quickly crumbles because its apparent they didn't think past "no energy = bad"
Its the balance of damage all together
What if they just nerf the top 3 specs by 1% every week until next patch. Rolling nerfs. Eventually everyone will be within 1% of each other.
at the risk of lighting the keg of gunpowder
top 3 specs where? raid? mythic or heroic? m+? what key level? overall? aoe? what talents?
It would also keep the game challenging throughout a patch cycle. As players improve and learn the routes and mechanics plus gear up things eventually get too easy.
but rolling nerfs keeps them challenging
huh
I mean you’d also rolling buff the bottom right
So you’re back to square one
Of where is the goal
Which is the whole problem to begin with
No, the bottom is the baseline. Until everyone else gets nerfed enough that they make it to the top (then they get nerfed 1% too)
the top WHERE
what
