Don’t stand a billion miles away
this doesn't effect me in the slightest
and im 1 of the guys that would benefit from it
the knockback shouldn't take you out of stealth
but also yeah just send vanish i guess lmao
Shadowstep?
but jfc such a horrible idea
ive never been knocked out by it tho
Yeah the thing that knocks you out is the aoe tick
just shroud in, grief your bm hunter and then hit boss early
It’s the same thing as ansurek
People saying that ansurek breaks stealth
But it’s the dot tick
And they’re just in China
Its glorious, maybe I will get faster invites now. It just turns every random group owner into something eww potentially. 
I hope so. People are already incredibly dumb about the strangest stuff in pugs.
that addon is a genuine jurassic park moment
didnt stop to think whether they should
It’s actually just Warcraftlogs supervillain any% speedrun
like, its not even a maybe for me, im literally sitting on a 95 average for idk how many tiers now
but its such a dumb idea in the first place, it helps nobody at all and literally makes stuff more toxic and nothing else
Every single thing they’ve done since the archon rebrand has been utter dogshit
on first boss of top do i have to save stealth to reapply my deathmark since apparently it doesn't count as a reset when one of them dies cuz they are technically same mob or something?
i just move mark when ones about to die
true
they dont "die", they just go k.o at 1hp until all 3 are down, then they die
deathstalker is fun and well thought out btw
yeah the oversights that brick your ability if you not paying attention
swap the mark at the last few %, and they are somewhat equal in HP anyway most of the time
its definitely a bit silly
Well same, but some people dont really care for parses, thats why maybe
like, if 1 goes down, the others are at like 20% at best
Pretty accurate 
The best metric for inviting someone to your pug group is how funny their name is. Or how good the joke they include in their note is.
true and real
ive started making my note "my mom calls me her little pumper" and my invite rate has skyrocketed
I just invite people that have killxp and atleast a 50 average on alt runs
lmao I'd invite that
killxp can be misleading too. I tend to go for multikill to be safe. My current thing for Mythic has just been "write the boss mythic changes" 'cos then they've at least read the description and can read.
dont forget to drop the old reliable MEOWDY
I had five people drop that on my Vexie kill lmao
good cowcat
i like to also include their social security number and a background check
i just tell them i have a secret clearance and can get them stuff to post on warthunder forums
wow has a new patch
do we get buffs again, we kinda need it
we're kinda unplayable
nah we're alright
yy agreed, for sure classes that are worse haha
what typo
It’s alchemical chaos
you can just sim a couple times using top gear or the input from the pins in #tc-research
(it's going to be alchemical chaos)
yeh it doesn't care about any of that

is our stat prio the same for st and m+?
haste in m+ generally worse
so we generally should craft crit / mast?
hi whypsyr
yes
so this might be a dumb question but i got the energy drink from a map earlier and its like a .3% loss if i swap out my priory trinket and just use that and pacemaker. i know sims are sims but do you think its better to have priory for deathmark than having two passive trinkets all the time? i'm only asking because i'm kind of lazy and on use trinkets are lame
why does droptimizer craft want me to make a stilletto?
I mean you can just macro priory into deathmark, no need to press it manually
true and valid
Because 3 embellishments are good
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/g7V6pi5BJH1Kof9c349fPy HoC that bad in Dslice?
HoC is good but you're simming a 658 v a 678
So yeah the 20 ilvls are gonna make a difference
i simmed a 658 Heroic track HoC against a Energy drink
One passive one on use is usually the play
Droptimizer doesnt know that its an embellishment so thats why
One active trinket one passive trinket is going to be better than two actives. You'd be sending one active during just a kingsbane and kingsbane doesn't do much on its own
maaan..... with all the changes i dont know what spec to play to have highest dps in raid <,<
Any spec can work, which spec do you enjoy?
You'll do more dps on a spec you enjoy and gel with than chasing the meta
Outlaw
i enjoy all 3 tbh
But yeah all 3 are fine
but now Outlaw seem to shine
Just play which one you enjoy
sometime i get lazy and dont want to deal with energy pooling,
we don't pool
You have to pool once every two minutes
But like
we just run out of energy
Pooling is actually being lazy?
You aren’t pressing buttons
How can you get lazier
yea, i like to smash button, makes me think i do stuff
pooling means i need to pay attention
you say that like i'm not spamming my mutilate button until i have the energy for it
Real
once every two minutes
here's the thing, just don't pool
and you'll be grand
wont that greatly affect my deepz
Nope!
Any benefits from pooling are so minor, I think the only one with any kind of tiny relevance is the pool to 150 pre-kingsbane
ok swapping back from sub to sin tonight for the heck of it
exactly
on a non DM KB
And even then, it's like... a fraction of a percent
min max is what we do anyway
yea..
But yeah its a tiny bit of pooling to absolutely min max
but all fun aside, how far ahead is Outlaw right now?
Outlaw makes my hands hurty
It seems my info was outdated, https://www.wowhead.com/news/the-war-within-season-2-dps-rankings-mythic-liberation-of-undermine-week-3-376097?utm_source=discord-webhook says i'm super wrong.
yea, thats what makes me consider Outlaw
it looks like it's miles ahead
but archon doesnt reflect it, so im confused a bit
Dont you prioritise fun over the rest tho
tbh, its all the same to me
I mean that’s like maybe 7% and 4% in damage to bosses. So idk what you consider miles
That doesn't sound fun :C
outlaw definitely doesnt sound like fun
also smol parse size + first few bosses quite good for outlaw
who plays to have fun these days , i only play to escape reality
i do
you dont play at all
That's why i play
there aren't really any BAD bosses for outlaw in the current raid mind
another game
Could you not sell me out like that
LOL
tbh, same here
wait he's green?!
is clear the witnesses fan proc worth using on ST since the mutilate buff
yea, mhwilds is neat, next patch coming like... thursday or something
Yeah, hyped for that
any knowers
!fok
Fok Conditions Post-Buff
Fan of Knives as a generator to replace ambush/mutilate:
- Baseline 3+ targets, -1 if talented into momentum of despair and thrown precision, +1 if talented into vicious venoms, +1 if talented into blindside. (Generally 5 with raid build, 3 with Bleed m+, 2 with Hybrid m+)
Fan of Knives with Clear the Witnesses Up: - Baseline 2+ targets, -1 if lingering darkness is up or you aren't talented into vicious venoms. With Vicious Venoms casting during lingering darkness is dps neutral.
Fan of Knives with Darkest Night Up: - Only on 2+ targets, or without Vicious Venoms talented. This is also a very very minor optimization
The most important to remember is the generator rules, clear the witnesses and darkest night optimizations can be effectively ignored as they are not meaningful DPS improvements
also stated in the pins
thanks
Aren't outlaw logs inflated by the fact.
Only the really good super dedicated players play it rn
That’s what we used to say about sin logs
TRUE
Was I the enemy
Oh the misery, everybody wants to be my enemy
idk anything about sin talents, that pin makes no sense to me: are there any crazy changes to rotation compared to last tier?
same opener? same rules?
I noticed top log on Mugzee doesn't fan on opener?
is that just a whoopsie? or just because it doesn't matter that much
you were pressing fok in opener?
oh by the time you get ctw i stop consdiering that the opener
no fok since vicious venom is meta now
backstab, garrote, fok?

ctw on 2+
okay, so I'm never pressing that on Mugzee
not in ST at least
"Generally 5 with raid build"
i assumed the sim wouldnt allow more than 2 embellishments :p
Droptimizer dumb, use topgear 
Yeah it doesn’t have an embellishment limit on droptimizer
he was asking specifically about ctw, not just fok
wait, you proc it before you even press your CDs, though
huh
With the current raid build its not worth consuming ctw on 1 target.
ty
yeah but now im confused
yeah samething in raid setting my b. you dont use ctw in single target if youre in raid build
oh im not confsued im just dumb
ye
wait, when do you vanish, this guy doesn't vanish the entire fight
that doesn't seem normally
do you not play MA anymore?
and not use it for gen?
during DM?
You don't play MA no
premed is sub
wait
I'm so confused
I though the special backstab gave more CP
or some shit
it felt like that last tier
For sub yes
ambush does more damage and gives more cp, mut hits twice and procs stuff
on average they are about equal
according to people smarter than me
ambush "with a cost" is worse than mutilate
Spend the free ambush though to save energy
well you literally cant choose to press mut with blindside up anyway
so thats irrelevant
challenge accepted
Nop
Can i take the mutilate on a date and fall in love, have a family, spend a wonderful life together, and then finally on our deathbed, I ask: /cast mutilate ?
bro this top log took tiny toxic blade instead of arterial precision
is that a whoopsie?
or good on mugzee
on heroic it probably doesnt matter
ttb is more st
i mean mythic
ap better if it hits adds
honestly i think ttb is probably better on mugzee
bc i doubt ap hits through gaols
I mean maybe he just
played better?
Do you stay out of gaols or
step as soon as it goes out
we haven't pulled yet, starting tonight more than likely
you cant step out of goals
I can void elf racial
AP loses value if the adds die basically instantly or the spread is out of spatter/shiv range
It was more wondering if you were fast enough
yeah velf works
door of shadows op
If your guild, in heroic, does respectable damage at this point TTB is the play
The temptation is increasing....
50% off transmog
was already sounding spicy
Wait how does velf work post change
i never got it right in its old version
wait, so last tier when you pressed vanish in DM, the next Ambush wasn't guaranteed max CP?
it felt like it was
no?
No but you had more crit from MA
hmmm, I don't remember a single time that thing didn't give me full CP lmao
interesting though lmao
its fantastic except for the fucking collar
which makes it so you cant hide it under tabards
am I still finishing at 5+?
5+, obviously 7cp with DN active
ty everyone
The what collar

Yeah
if you want iw then yeah its good
is that better than just running hybrid?
I always want IW
Just run without kb
Usually better
Its typically the same as hybrid, but easier because you dont need to worry about lining up kb with dm 
hmm, but i get IW for free with hybrid
No
Last whispyr checked you lose less dps taking iw for bleed than you do with hybrid
1.4
test 1 is iw+kb test 2 is dropping ma for iw

This 
you can just swap lightweight shiv or ma for iw but both of those choices feels kind of bad
nah the normal drop to get iw on bleed is bonespike
all I know is when the tank grabs everything at the start of priory all the way to the stairs plus the first mini boss
CT go BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
pugs need to learn one way or another
not sure if thats better than taking kb
(i also only do weekly 10s)
I mean i do that too
I take iron wire for the dr for tanks. Beginning of pull the scariest part for them
honestly
its either the tank is perfectly fine or they die so spectacularly that iw isnt going to save them anyway
in my pugs
"this is my first rlp" type shit
big
dh leaping after saying "big"
that's legit just a DH thing
even if you're in a group with a fucking guild dh tank
"big"
*leaps
I mean its because bad dh players dont realize
leaping into a pack syncs the autos up
You're supposed to throw glaive first
into sigil
into feldev
smh
I guess then you can hunt
into aldrachi combo
Idk personally i put up spikes first since running ftd anyway
i watched a vdh today do half on overall of what mine does in priory when he has better gear.
And about similar size pulls
I personally refuse to play dh coz we shouldn't have ever gotten them
they required a retcon
they overloaded leather
they removed the possibility of getting warden/spellbreakers
which took away a mail tank/melee class
and made better story sense for us to get
but like, they wanted a rule of cool win
I'm ok with it
me when the race that exiled an entire group for using arcane magic can be mages
there's levels to retcons that vastly out pace "have learned to"
i want third dh spec
thats just ranged
throwing glaives at people
shooting fel blasts
it's the same kinda issue with melee sv
should have been BM
BM STILL plays like a melee spec, even now
BM canonically would have made more sense in melee
Ole rex boy who was always THE BM GUY had to be retconned to be sv, although he literally has 2 pets
BM is about being one with the pets but you fight at range
SV throws FUCKING GRENADES IN MELEE
also SV was giga popular at the time they changed it fully
BM should have been melee
SV should have been the ranged pet spec
i can kind of get it
because all dh mogs kind of end up looking like dh mogs
but also if i play dh im fine looking like a dh
Then again if you missed legion you missed most good dh mogs
Nothing comes close to their magetower warglaives.
the thing with dh thats really nice is they have a consistant color palette
so new stuff consistantly matches older stuff
i wish they did that with more classes

like you can barely tell some of these are a decade apart
hol up
Oh yeah that true.
The belf DH options with the belf armour set is giga
I got something for you
You can get that color of the belf starter
on a nelf
man hips
For some reason if you make a class trial dh
you get the belf colors of the starter set on a nelf
but not the other way around

ew imagine actually leveling a character
wait what
spend gold and boost that shit
alliance favortism smh
i said dh thats a rogue mog
my fault
and on a belf smh
hol up I got something for you for a red gold dh mog
(its on belf that doesnt use heritage set tho)
that's an anime lancer mog
i have a few red gold rogue mogs
nothing says stealth like gold
You can also use the legion 3/4 base horde colors to help
i actually really like transmogging demon hunters
i just hate playing them
lmao
Yeah it's literally a mashup of these sets usually
Most of the legion pvp sets kind match well with each other.
It doesnt work as well on nelf color palettes
overall
shhhhhhhhhhh 
Mogs don't matter, we got plunderstorm, now all my toons are pirates because pirates > ninja
all I'm waiting for now is the ability to mog any weapon I want
so that even as a sin rogue I can have a single rapier
god i hate alliance
The antorus elite set for dh
was originally datamined as the nh mythic set
if you go back to, old mmochamp posts
The colorway is definitely better on belf
lets be real, the best set from antorus is dashing scoundrel
ah yeah see that's a miss for me
I big dislike all the "I look like shredder but designed by someone who forgot to stop drawing" sets
I was nearly offended that that shaman set was so good
should be illegal
it's mail
that's not allowed
I think the best mail mogs are usually
but it kinda outlines one of my major issues with non shaman mail
just taking individual pieces from different sets
Yeah mail rarely looks like mail nowadays
definitely this
people say mail is the worst looking armor, but thats mainly just the full sets
most sets have at least a couple good pieces you can use for transmog
honestly the best mail sets of recent times have been the outworld quest sets that go unreasonably hard
yeah mail overworld sets have definitely gone hard recently
What was that one
legion overworld chest
that got super used
the one that gives you chest tattoos kind of
dragonrider
Whats the brown version
trading post version
its funny because there is a plate chest that looks like true chainmail
the warfront alliance gear of bfa s1
I'm telling you, wow mail is just shitty plate most of the time
like out of curiosity, where's the nathanos style sets?
so you can look like... idk... a hunter?
but instead nearly every option I have as a hunter has me stalking through the bushes looking like a 40k space mehreen
this is a sick set
where's this at?
it has some bits of heavier looking armour, it doesn't look like leather, it doesn't look like plate armour
but it also looks like you could walk about without sounding like a bag of loose change
hunter sets just look like
they skinned random animals
in the raid
shaman sets you sometimes get bangers, and sometimes you get 2 toilet bowls for shoulders
is it more worth to use 1 gem or many different with culminating blasphemite? when i sim it says i want to use only 1 gem, but when looking at logs i see ppl using different ones
i'll take it over some of the racial sets, like look at the worgen one. Look at the npcs from their homeland, look at the aesthetics, and yet we got
I COULD HAVE HAD A BLOODBORNE HUNTER SET DAMMIT
this is kinda hard to ascertain tbh, the blasphemite is kinda just a bit shit - I just slot it in and get the most out of it because fuck it
it's not like the gems are giga weighting your stats anyway, might as well take the crit bonus
That set isnt even a race one is it
imagine not using speed gem
wait, is there a CURRENT speed gem?
wtf is it called?
not straddling?
elusive
ELUSIVE?!
blasphemite
FUCK ME
isntead of the crit one
brb, editting my speed set
I probably just never paid any attention coz one of them said "crit"
dps brane sed - CRIT U SAY?
it's the worgen heritage set
unironically - I realise it looks so bad it should be a joke, but it's not
how fast is your speed set?
not as fast as my old speed set, but fast enough to out run a mount without sprint
thats kinda fast
getting to 160-170 isn't that hard, but speed as a stat curbs off FAST
is that including movespeed buffs from going into stealth?
without a trace or w/e ti is
not the temporary one no
going in/out of stealth is annoying
but nightstalker for sure
or if you go OL and get the other one as well
I tend to always cultivate a speed set because I'm one of those losers who farms old shit all the time
the mount grind never ends
oh god, thank fuck I got that mount on our kill
that hole can get screwed
I miss the speed sets we had a couple of expacs ago though, my warrior and hunter were like little sanics
zip zoomin
I saw some wild hunter speed sets lmao
the best speed sets basically require legacy content though
doing current content makes things more difficult
wtf is this shit?
this is just going to giga encourage the highest level of brainlet gameplay from most people just to avoid
"lol blue parses? go sign up to another run kid"
People will see my doo doo parses D:
warcraftlogs being a corporate supervillain
Gatekeep, gaslight, girlboss

I also loved when they bought subcreation and removed all the niche stats they were tracking in favour of big tierlists
mate if I get tossed from an AOTC run because I don't have enough orange/pink parses I am going to kick a hole in my wall
the first few weeks of heroic are going to turn into all my guildies fighting for smolbrane parses to look good for pugs
and I'm going to stab someone

My guild is too shithouse for me to parse well
Maybe I should play some dogshit unpopular spec...
I'm hoping for AotC this week.
Of course, whenever we do get it, that means swapping in the less capable players so we can get them AotC too.

it is what it is, I actually love helping casuals out, it's part of why this sort of unintentially toxic stuff triggers the ever living fuck out of me
These are the same raiders we had to explain the difference between the large bombs and the hermit crabs on Stix.
are you in my guild?
Same conversation every week
Depends, do you have a PresVoker that dies on every pull but gets a spot because she's married to the GL?
wait what's the difference ? maybe that's what I've been doing wrong on mythic prog
lul
no our only evoker is an Aug 

She was a Shaman before DF, purely so she could ankh

kind of based tbh
Well one is a lemon and the other is a liquid
it's actually someone from <wiquid>
UwU
max should do more undercover streams
those were banger
especially that one where he helped the guys dad get aotc
god tier stuff
I was so fucking hype when they got the kill
In all seriousness, one is the giant bomb that is present in all difficulties and the other is clearly a goddamn crab
its actually really funny how those streams show exactly how much having a good shotcaller matters
way more than I was for my own CE
that is true, but honestly I give people some leeway on it, suddenly they're flying at breakneck speeds getting speed wobbles
We have dumb little things on every boss still, and we're 7/8H
I legit imagine some people are at home, muted mics screaming like they're on a roller coaster
lmao
it's huge, especially having one that you trust will take responsibility for a bad call
so that when they make a call, noone does their own thing, they just fucking full send on the call
Man my RL just says the plan, then he keeps quiet when we do the pull - i think he's too focused on his Rotation
0 shots called
someone who just says, chill, just hit all our defensives, and push, push push puspusppsupsusphssspushsphhsj
- people still get run over when Vexie spawn
- touching lightning adds on Carnage
- not reaching correct amps in time during Rik's intermission
- rolling balls into Stix before bombs
- putting drills on wrong side of boss so we have to reposition before Locken knocks us back
- touching bombs on Bandit
- not LoSing ice behind walls/bombs on Mug'Zee
We didn't have a lot of attempts on Gally but from the few we did I can see What The Boys Have Been Working On making our healers sweat every time.
imo - this might be a hot take
but I actually think there should be a freebie spot in a raid for a leader to have a real time free roam camera
actually implemented in the game
eh
i think it would make guilds that really dont need a 21st man feel pressured into having one
21st man is good, and should be considered for an in game experience
even if the guy doesnt want to do it
and if the guild does need/want a 21st man there are easy tools to allow that outside of the game
Average AOTC guild experience
Arent there like WAs that act as a teleprompter for RLs?
literally read the text on the screen?
it's DEFINITELY a solid point, but I also think that some things in mythic are a little too tightly tuned for the average (even mythic) level gamer to play at the required level while making solid calls
but then relaxing that tuning upsets people too
You remember the worm boss last tier? With the eggs?
the danger worm was shit
VIVIDLY
and like that's kinda the point
imagine a 21st man with a freeroam able to mark things on the fly
that would be amazing
There was a WA that put raid markers above your head. Our RL would then put matching raid markers down on four sets of eggs.
We still messed up more times than not
although, it's true, the mere exisitence of it probably incentivises the requirement of doing it, and also creates tighter tuning for bosses as a result
so
a;ldkjfldskfjadf ehhh
yeah I think in your world, there are more ovinax bosses
yep it's a good point
but WA bosses are trash
using a WA for prompts like "defensive here, get ready to move" is what I'm talking about
I feel like those exist
Lost count how many times "don't touch bombs" has been said over VC this tier thus far.
Applies to multiple bosses no less
lots of bombs
Man, our first attempt on Normal Vexie week 1 was a treat.
Once they found out you can drive the cars into her and get big meter damage, everyone was spamming to grab one.
lol
average AOTC guild experience
meanwhile in our raid
"THERE'S 2 FREE CARS OVER THERE SOMEONE FUCKING GET IN ONE"
"bruh I'm deeps;
At least the garbage balls on Stix are RNG.
But people would forgo all mechanics on Vexie just to get in a car
I spent the entire raid nights this past week focusing every boss.
Thank God Caustic Spatter isn't a concept my RL understands so he sees I do just enough damage that it .makes it seem like I'm actually caring about adds

my guild has just discovered this. RIP the peace and quiet we just established in raid
Me on Stix this week after switching back to assassin
it's actually the wildestly mental idea
We only parse on Normal bosses. Too many people on the other side of seesaw.
I mean, you could always "forget" to hit a bomb, so you can keep running the boss back until it doesn't choose you for the maximum parse.
"LFM HEROIC UDM - 80% parsers or GTFO"
it's like the height of the gearscore era
"I have a lot of 79%... is that ok?"
...is ignoring you
It's weird, I feel like I don't get picked for the random mechanics very much.
Hardly get Katamari Damacy'd, for instance
I wonder if you could vanish just before the ball picking goes off to be taken off the list of potential targets.
has anyone tested that?
imagine if people start using healer parses to cultivate pugs
Like back in wrath / cata people would tell you to go fuck yourself if you didnt have an absurd gearscore, which just didn't mean anything at the time because you could pad with irrelevant gear
UGH
probably not worth fucking over the raid with 1 less ball
you and a guildy healer join a pug and they're like "could yhou please just stand in everything... I gota snipe for the parses man"
The raid doesn't matter anymore. Only the parse.
what build is doing best in keys rn
I hate this timeline
The number color drives me
he trinket buffs are giga long, but only one to really care about on first glance is Junkmaestro's Mega Magnet, as we cheese it by casting it during lingering darkness for bonus damage, so a 20% buff is actually really strong
Assa Tuning Wise, we caught a buff, which is crazy imo, and we got a huge mutilate and ambush buff. Vicious Venoms is back on the menu for raids, but does not affect m+ builds at all, and the old 2 piece is dead so we're swapping to 4pc pretty much the moment we get it.
Across the board buff between 4-6%
Talent/Rotation Changes
Bleed build in m+ takes blindside over tiny toxic
For single target raid, vicious venoms is +0.7% by dropping imp gar, ma, and arterial for 2/2 vv and ttb. You can also keep arterial for the aoe instead of ttb, this would be +0.5%. This will be the preference on any fight with adds.
Fok conditions change slightly with Vicious Venoms Talented and the buff. The buff makes it so that blindside is +1 required target (so no blindside = 3, blindside = 4, m+ build with no blindside = 2, with blindside = 3). Vicious venoms then simply adds another +1 to all target counts. (clear the witnesses on 2+ still, fok to generate on 5+ with raid builds). With that being said however, you can clear your clear the witnesses buff in single target during lingering darkness still if you'd like, as this has shown to be neutral.
If you're on 6cp with darkest night, you should mutilate in single target with vicious venoms, fan of knives on 2+ targets.
In mythic+ we don't take vicious venoms, but bleed builds taking blindside will want to mutilate on 2 target. Hybrid doesn't take blindside and thus will still be casting fok on 2
tldr
You want info but don't want to read?

that, was some words
you just said some words
you said that
hybrid build
Outlaw

i dont need a detrailed run a fuck about it justgive me a answer
And it was answered with 3 Reactions
bleed
hybrid build worse than bleed in every way btw
It’s bleed
thx
Whispyr's guide lied to me
all i needed
TLDR
bleed build = good
hybrid = good
sub = good
outlaw = good
play the one you're best at
We're not trying to be dicks (we just are), reading the guides is key. Whispyr makes a ton of effort
no ur all good
im asking for a friend who is new to rogue
what does he play now?
oh no, we summoned the old god
has he ever looked at a guide before?
references balls of garbage in your path
hunter at 3k m+ io

im assuming therefore your friend has opened a wowhead or icyveins guide at least once?
He's always here, you need more Madman's Insight
and knows there's a cheat sheet / easy mode? and a talent section?
not trying to be a dick, but you gotta teach a man to fish
or he'll keep asking you what the best talent build is
Thought that was DH
all hunter variants

that is a thing you said

"THERE'S CONTEXT I SWEAR!"
Don't @ me 
really though imagine the envenom bots being like "oh x/y so complex"
bring back min/max KB
Cease
sometimes I have to make sure I hit 7cp
wholey shit, you cant say it out loud
the entire spec being just kingsbane was not healthy
but i'd argue being envenom the spec is also not healthy
maybe kingsbane could do a little more of our damage lmao
to be fair, the entire spec being envenom isn't much better
I also agree
what happened to bleeds in the bleed spec?
thats feral
A dwarf used Stoneform
to be fair the entire spec being a 2 min DM window wasn't much better

to be fair the entire spec being "PB PROC DON'T MOVE TANK!" wasn't much better
I can keep going bacvkwards
not exsanguinate tho please
no i cooked dont worry
Being back my boy
make exsang into engulf from evoker
I miss her
no guys the best iteration was obviously vendetta 
As a fledgling Boomkin using the Lunar Beam, I feel this
nah best iteration was casting slice and dice and AFKing in classic
mate idk if you played back then, but the antorus PBs were like the fist of an angry god
that shit landed, and tanks would legit HALT so it could tick
#bringbackwhitedamage
Vendetta was easier to balance because it works on all damage. Part of why envenom is so strong right now is bleeds were tuned back (relatively) so that deathmark wasn't so much gigadamage.
good times. I miss legion
triple PB proc in a big M+ pull
Def more like vordt rather than plin plin plon though for sure
lets be real, discorders are probably MOST like orphan of kos
that real life posture
Just play unholy, they have the same vibe rn
My man expecting to find maidens in Caelid
isn't unholy just all about deathcoil atm?
Blood beasts work sortof like the WoD ring
But theyre RNG
Sometimes you proc and do 40M first pull meadery, sometimes you dont and do 20M
Took me a long time to wean myself off gacha dopamine
Is Unholy good? Thought I heard it was down bad
In m+ its very good
NOW I'M NOT SAYING that an evoker SHOULD rescue a blood beast OUT of the pack
but like
y'know
Not so much raid, huh
Casualaddict has a DK named rogueismeta that he is gearing up
Feel free to interpret that however you wish
traitorous scum!
Mine is only 60, haven't played her since SL
my dk is level 80, standing next to the island expedition guy to farm mounts
Such sad times we live in
i need to get my dk to lvl 80
Honestly just bring back smoke bomb
Why not
Give it like some small dam reduction 5 player max cap like mass barrier
And boom rogue meta
I remember having to convince my RL last tier that I had a poison that reduced damage done.
He was skeptical
bring back 1 min cloak
Shadowlands s3 classic when
the legion days
Did you link him the spell
Well eventually, but he didn't understand how a poison could help
??
world of soakcraft was a game
Did he understand how DH magic damage debuff worked?
gods i was stronk then
tomb of soakgeras
I just think if dks have darkness all dks have amz and mages have mass barrier warlocks have stones and I could just go on and on about other dps specs having great group utility
Idk why smoke bomb is an issue
Pala have like 14 shield wog and bop like
blizzard is a reactive company and will nerf the shit out of us for being too strong with utility
i like flying under the radar
Yeah but that was a permanent debuff.
His initial argument was "you're not always hitting the boss" aka Ansurek between Phase 2 & 3
And I’m here fucking spam garroting a pack to iron wire it all cos we don’t have a dh tank
Idk it’s just lame
blind and blackjack is a thing
Ye true true
not a good thing
Gotta say I love the AoE Blind in dungeons
but a thing
Yeah when you cba targeting a kick you blind it it’s nice
when did he realise that you don't take damage from ansurek in P2?
Smoke bomb lads it’s the way
waittt what?
Whoever has the rogue devs number
airborne irritant
Fucking get him texted
the bleed build looks interesting, ik wowhead said its better for newer players and low keys but is it doing well into +12's
I’m sure he’s in this discord
I think he was talking about me needing to hit her to apply it when we got up to last phase, meaning the DR wouldn't be there if she started hitting the tank before I get there.
Idk how much he checks it but it used to be the case that he was in here and would talk to fuu and some of the other tc guys idk if that’s a false memory tho
oh fab

he pops in sometimes
i think the last time he was here it was reacting to a gif of whispyr shotgunning a monster
yeh idk either - RLs are typically idiots
I think the next Xal'atath burden are the orbs so that'll help a lot
yeah it's great for M+
Zephyr and darkness do pretty much the same thing, but ye it would be cool if we could have aoe feint like zephyr
this weeks affix has been annoying me, late stealths 😛
He plays Priest and has historically never played Rogue (and probably doesn't care to learn)
That’s probably a better idea than smoke bombs the portable los element of it too stronk
This is all because of fekin bfa triple rogue comps
throw down a bottle of morphine
Im actually specced, and didnt knoow that
Let the vapors take you
what a noooob
Guys I just slammed a normal and recruited a new rogue to our ranks
Make sure you don't actually target an orb though
If you look at the option on tricks you’ll see blackjack it does something cool with it
A lot of Rogues just plain forget Blind is a button
Or it'll just get rid of the one and not the others
does sudden demise proc on a bleed tick or something like that?
imagine having blind bound

tbh, i only use it if someones proper annoying me aha
Oh yeah, don't forget this.
Always aim for a normal mob that's close to the orbs for maximum effect
what do you use for AOE stop?
it doesnt do damage why would i have it bound
I dont sap ever
unless im trying to skip
I’m making this macro in the morning
😛
I’m sure it works with blind too
I sap CONSTANTLY, but mostly because I have it bound to pick poket and disguise
sometimes i worry people take my shitposting seriously and think i actually believe the things i say
Gotta get they coins

screw the coins, I gota trigger the raid to no end by turning into a giant kurog mid boss fight
Did you see the coin mans in the alley in dorn now
bring back pickpocketting
how else do you get bubbling wax?
Ah
remember when the devs were trying to impliment actual gains through pickpocket?
tbh i just dont even bother with the wax anymore
we were meant to get actually game play impacting items from it
you can get bubbling wax from drops in floodgate
but they turfed the idea
learned that first week doing it on normal lmao
nuh uh, his stealth is just really high level

he uses stealth+1
Woulda been cool but if they made it like you pickpocketed a thing and it was a perm item rather than a consume cos I’ve not once used or had in my bags or attempted to have bubbling wax this whole xpac fuck that
it was MEANT to become something for boss dps
not a consume dealio
like a main rotational skill
What like a fucking gotcha nose talent
based take
i wish that was a talent
that is hilarious
Stick my hand in his pocket feel his dick increase haste 3%
No
did they remove it?
don't let people trick you, just pick pocket everything, eventually it'll work
left hand for vers instead
You can get greens but not the ones that count
RIP
Both hands for crit
no hands for mast
They’re mega coming down in price so dw
I got a better trinket today, pleased . Hope I get something nice in vault on wednesday
Plus not many you really want as ass anyway so probs not worth the hassle
dude if we actually used pick poket for rotations imagine the /s macros
"I'm jerkin it"
/cast pickpocket
i might buy a waist
