I'm like 2 expansions away from that D:

dreamy rover
#

blizz then goes on to add blade flurry to all rogue specs

grim jay
#

I like the correction that didnt correct anything, happens to me aswell sometimes

dreamy rover
#

cool

subtle tundra
#

but this season you just play oracle priest and you can never get 1 shot

grim jay
#

On a different note, I dont understand why they did that on sub at all

#

Its fine on sin tho

earnest remnant
#

nope

#

get it gone

dreamy rover
#

shield insanely op

radiant raven
#

more SecTec damage. Less flurry!

inner citrus
#

ah i see its in the variations tab

dreamy rover
balmy condor
#

blizzard really just designed themselves into a corner idk. They wanted specs to have differences in aoe and single target, but then like 2 specs could do the same aoe but also do single target for some reason, so then everyone bitched that they wanna be like those people, and then instead of telling those people to fuck off blizzard decided to cave in and make a bunch of other specs have aoe and single target at the same time, which means then stuff like assa/sub were outliers and the easiest way to make specs do aoe and single target at the same time is just to make them do aoe when they do single target and now here we are and every spec in the game has a blade flurry mechanic

#

and they can't get rid of the blade flurry mechanic anymore because it would just be a direct nerf

earnest remnant
#

ngl they shouldve just kept sub AoE less

#

and give it back a % of its former funnel

#

like they dont even design bosses like zul anymore

balmy condor
#

my hot take is that assassination should have the insane funnel and sub aoe should go bananas

#

assa cds are raw single target

dreamy rover
#

crazy

subtle tundra
earnest remnant
earnest remnant
#

0 AoE in the kit at all

radiant raven
balmy condor
#

but idk

golden loom
#

Assassination should be great at assassinating a single target

radiant raven
#

High ST with good funnel would be nice.

balmy condor
#

in my head, sub and assa competing for funnel and single target just doesn't make sense, what's the niche

earnest remnant
#

It also fits more into the theme of the big finisher spec being able to just spam big finishers into a single mob on AoE

subtle tundra
dreamy rover
balmy condor
#

so imo, assa has the single target cds, destroy its aoe, energy go up in aoe, give it the funnel/prio

dreamy rover
#

very very cringe

balmy condor
#

and then sub can have the aoe

#

and then you get assa big burst prio/funnel/st, sub big aoe burst, outlaw no burst but giga cleave all the time

#

and each spec sorta has its thing

earnest remnant
#

like it makes sense but i wont agree cuz i want sub to be the funnel spec xD

dreamy rover
#

im a sub at heart sadly

#

or happily idk

grim jay
dreamy rover
#

idk doesnt feel too bad w/ sin and sub competing also

#

they're different in their own ways

#

and i think they have their own appeal

#

assa is more dotty

grim jay
dreamy rover
#

and sub is brutal raw damage

#

the dmg profile will still make it so you play them in diff situations as we have them now

earnest remnant
#

think they should just fully lean assa into the DoT's fantasy

dreamy rover
ebon olive
#

What Talent is the one that give me the FOK Proc so i use it ST ?

grim jay
earnest remnant
balmy condor
# earnest remnant like it makes sense but i wont agree cuz i want sub to be the funnel spec xD

okay here's my insane cook right, change some fuckoff sub talent like veiltouched or silent storm or warning signs or whatever

make it turn your evisc into a crimson tempest style thing. Does full damage in single target, but then increased damage with more targets, split damage. Add an animation where you summon some shadow clone guy to go raw meat and cheese into the target, delete black powder EZ idk maybe not delete black powder but make it a 30s cd or something that just does huge fuckoff aoe I didn't think far enough to fit black powder into any of this

ebon olive
grim jay
#

Name aside

dreamy rover
#

remove black powder would be HUGE

ebon olive
#

IDK FOK in Generall feels super whack for me and then pressing it on ST ... Mehh Spell

dreamy rover
#

make evisc cleave in some way

#

and boom

#

we're shadow outlaw

earnest remnant
#

worst mistake

balmy condor
earnest remnant
#

they couldve made

subtle tundra
#

erm ugh emrmmm

dreamy rover
#

now im starting to realise this class design and balancing stuff ends up being preeetty hard

subtle tundra
#

delete 7th cp, make deeper stratagem not an instant take

earnest remnant
#

sub just isnt designed for AoE

#

and its fine

grim jay
#

Idk I unironically like the tools sub has available currently, just kinda whacky balance between stuff

#

Also dance doesnt seem to be at its sweetspot

#

Imo

ebon olive
#

I dont like that you become AFK Class after burst XD

frosty nebula
#

whacky is killing spree haha , why dont they fix that

grim jay
#

Else you cant really be a big burst class

ebon olive
#

Yeah but give me something in between then just backstab šŸ˜„

grim jay
#

Something inbetween cant be good

earnest remnant
#

thats literally all heavy burst focused classes

#

they do jackshit out of cds

subtle tundra
#

well ive disliked sub recently cause it is a CD management spec, not a rotation spec

midnight mist
#

is it really tho, fixed sin in m+ and fixed sub in m+

earnest remnant
#

its not about them being good for it zac

#

thats not the point

grim jay
earnest remnant
#

its from a design standpoint

grim jay
#

So his point stands

arctic shale
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
earnest remnant
royal lantern
midnight mist
#

Ok but I mean before these effects sub and sin were hard to ever be playable in m+ and when sub was playable in m+ it was in this weird state where you either aoe pad or st

grim jay
#

With how sub is a 1.5min spec now, tho I liked the 1min dance times

earnest remnant
midnight mist
#

Ok tbf Idk anything about bfa

midnight mist
#

But

#

Idk game changed since then

runic hinge
#

Quake go back to sleep

midnight mist
#

So idk if that's valid either

spice spire
runic hinge
spice spire
#

Oh ok

earnest remnant
#

And sub was meta 1 season SL and 1 season in DF until aug came

#

without flurry

#

so

#

like

midnight mist
#

yes i know

earnest remnant
royal lantern
#

spatter EXISTING is fine, its biggest problem is imo just that spatter instantly turned from "some neat cleave so you can do some AoE" into "this is all your AoE now"

midnight mist
#

but i said it above

#

when sub was meta it was a weird spec to have in your grp still

spice spire
midnight mist
#

you either mega aoe "pad" or do st

spice spire
#

But it had a very specific reason for existing

earnest remnant
#

anyway the point was not it being good or not, purely from a design standpoint

midnight mist
#

Which isn't what specs do nowadays

subtle tundra
#

man i cant believe in shadowlands i played all 3 specs

#

lol...

earnest remnant
#

its makes the classes all do the same shit

midnight mist
#

Every spec in the game does AOE while doing prio now

earnest remnant
#

and then at that point why even have specs if they all do the same, just with a diff name

#

shits boring af

midnight mist
#

I mean they still play differently idk if I can agree with you on that point

golden loom
#

I mean yeah specs dont have any real identity

midnight mist
#

I think it's good that all specs kinda have the same damage profile or at least or all kinda good In all damage scenarios

#

Cause then they are playable in m+

earnest remnant
#

yeh i do not

midnight mist
#

When your spec can't AOE you just can't play it in m+

earnest remnant
#

couldnt disagree more

royal lantern
#

5roles

melee dps, magic dps, phys ranged dps, green dps and blue dps, insane variety

dreamy rover
earnest remnant
#

well sub was meta in Legion because of it

#

and BFA

dreamy rover
#

they gave natural cleave to everyone in the game

earnest remnant
#

0 AoE

dreamy rover
#

you can go ahead and say "fuck pvp"

midnight mist
earnest remnant
#

just nuked big mobs

dreamy rover
#

but it ruined a big part of the game

midnight mist
#

Pvp is already ruining my game

#

Bet they removed acro cause of pvp

dreamy rover
#

but its a interesting point

midnight mist
#

They probably fixed trickster bug cause of pvp

runic hinge
#

They removed acro cause they hate you specifically

midnight mist
#

Hell killing spree is probably still here not reworked cause of pvp

#

Fuck pvp

golden loom
#

think it would be more interesting if the dungeons were more interestingly designed and specs had different strenghts/weaknessses and it was just all bombardillo crocodillo AoE

dreamy rover
#

ranged melees

#

just stabbing the fucking air

#

dgaf

midnight mist
#

game changed

#

every spec does prio now

#

while doing aoe

runic hinge
#

I don’t even really miss it lol. It’s whatever

midnight mist
#

this wont ahppen anymore

#

i dont think so anyway

earnest remnant
#

and thats what im saying is a mistake

#

from a design standpoint

#

everything

#

becomes

dreamy rover
#

ggs

earnest remnant
#

homogenize and its fucking boring and dull

dreamy rover
#

cool meta slave game

midnight mist
dreamy rover
#

where you need to reroll every season to get io if your class isnt the chosen one

earnest remnant
#

its a game with 36+ specs

#

why do they all have to do the same?

subtle tundra
red schooner
#

I just pick classes for the class fantasy, fuck the meta kekdog

earnest remnant
#

its a fantasy game with 0 fantasy left in it 10/10

golden loom
#

What if you brought a rogue to your m+ group for utility/boss damage

subtle tundra
#

that was shadowlands...

golden loom
#

its classic wow

midnight mist
#

No one cares about boss damage in 2025

subtle tundra
#

i was playing assa and saying big boss dam...

midnight mist
#

Why do you think assa is the best spec

grim jay
subtle tundra
dreamy rover
#

btw i have no bias in pvp, never played it, never will, dont care about it

#

but am sad seeing a whole part of the game vanishing

grim jay
dreamy rover
#

because theyre focusing on m+ and giving everyone cleave

royal lantern
# earnest remnant homogenize and its fucking boring and dull

"unholy dk does BIG dmg on big pulls but is not great for the rest, outlaw is consitent good cleave, sub can prio 1 target down, destro lock is the best 2 target cleaver in the game, spriest is a ST ramp monster, frost mage is good at 3target pulls"

remember that stuff?

or like, when tanks actually had DIFFERENCES? when "blood dk has high sustain and doesnt really need helaer attention but mitigates stuff worse then the others, but other tanks needs healer attention" was a thing? and now all tanks have infinite self sustain lol

royal lantern
#

now its, yeha, just passive cleave everywhere

subtle tundra
#

i blame talent trees

grim jay
earnest remnant
#

they made the game fcking boring

subtle tundra
#

they have to fill the trees with stuff, meaningful stuff

bronze pike
#

I do want to point out

royal lantern
subtle tundra
#

so everyone ends up with everything

dreamy rover
bronze pike
#

That brew needs healer attention still

earnest remnant
#

SL ruined wow

golden loom
#

I think its kinda crazy design wise how to get all our AoE in raid we just swap 1 talent, and then that talent point is insane

earnest remnant
#

ong

bronze pike
#

But no ya

#

Sl started the downfall

grim jay
spice spire
#

You IP and pray it’s enough

bronze pike
#

Df reintroduction of talent trees which resulting I. Utility and defensive bloat

#

Finished it

#

Granted it did make vdh a actual spec

#

So I’m somewhat happy

subtle tundra
dreamy rover
#

bfa classic

grim jay
dreamy rover
#

dude is thinking 6y ahead

bronze pike
#

Zac never played peak outlaw

grim jay
#

Its not 0

spice spire
bronze pike
#

Bfa outlaw

grim jay
spice spire
#

Victory rush every 30s?

red schooner
spice spire
#

Big heal

red schooner
#

Hopes and prayers can fill in the gap

grim jay
midnight mist
subtle tundra
#

wait zac didnt play outlaw bfa

royal lantern
# grim jay The tank part is especially true and sad

like, brewmasters niche was literally "it needs healer attention more then the Others, but is REALLY sturdy and cant die quickly" which was supposed to be the opposite of Blood DK

Prot warrior needed healer attention sometimes but had a steady dmg taken curve without bigger suprises

prot paladin was more self sufficent then prot warrior but took overall more dmg

there where differences

now its all just "full heal by yourself 24/7"

dreamy rover
#

my bad adhd

midnight mist
runic hinge
earnest remnant
royal lantern
spice spire
subtle tundra
midnight mist
#

we do that rn

#

its trash

spice spire
earnest remnant
#

but zac

dreamy rover
#

yhea i feel like @royal lantern has a amazing point here

earnest remnant
#

when you did hit the roll

subtle tundra
spice spire
#

Love impending victory

subtle tundra
#

it was combo points

earnest remnant
#

you went super saiyan

runic hinge
#

What if rtb cost combo points

nova kelp
#

time for some fatebound sprocket prog 🤮

grim jay
midnight mist
#

still trash

royal lantern
earnest remnant
#

Hitting a good roll

#

before going into a pack

midnight mist
#

rn

#

i go into a pack

midnight mist
#

i dont roll my 5 buff

#

i do 6 mil dps

dreamy rover
midnight mist
#

i roll my 5 buff

#

i do 12

earnest remnant
#

and you lose to a brew monk

midnight mist
#

i think in term of dogshit rng

#

we are good rn

bronze pike
#

Tank players being super shit in the past demanding homogenization to make their tank specs not punished by misplay

midnight mist
#

was bfa worse

runic hinge
#

He loses to quake on spriest

earnest remnant
#

trust me zac

#

BFA was worse

bronze pike
#

Only lead to more shitters in general

earnest remnant
#

xD

dreamy rover
#

thats why i dont play outlaw, insane to depend on LUCK to deal damage

bronze pike
#

@royal lantern

midnight mist
#

oh well

dreamy rover
#

like purely luck

midnight mist
#

yes purely luck

static glacier
#

4head

midnight mist
#

if we do a key together i probably dont do double your damage every pack

spice spire
royal lantern
spice spire
#

My tank’s niche?

#

Damage

bronze pike
#

Bfa only good outlaw thing

#

Was bte

#

Doing huge damage per press

dreamy rover
bronze pike
#

Instead of being spammed

dreamy rover
#

and pack

bronze pike
#

To do good dam

sharp viper
#

true gambling addicts play fatebound outlaw

bronze pike
midnight mist
static glacier
#

I still maintain they need to offer a non crackshot playstyle

midnight mist
#

pack to pack sure

spice spire
bronze pike
#

It’s unpopular among casual base

#

So I don’t think crackshot is here to stay next expansion

dreamy rover
bronze pike
#

Or atleast it’s gonna be gutted

earnest remnant
# midnight mist yes purely luck

this is the diff between a 5 roll with crit and a person rolling buried treasure (dont mind the tank he procced Twilight devs out of his ass)

static glacier
#

Really? I’ve not seen a single non crackshot rogue

sharp viper
static glacier
#

Since the rework

earnest remnant
#

thats on a boss

#

as well

earnest remnant
#

BFA

static glacier
#

Issue is it’s like a gazzilion dps loss

midnight mist
#

so

subtle tundra
earnest remnant
bronze pike
#

Doesn’t matter

midnight mist
#

if they just fix the reasons why its unpopular instead of destroying a spec

#

you know

bronze pike
#

They killed er for less

sharp viper
#

give outlaw uncapped aoe and it would be my favourite spec atm

earnest remnant
#

Grand melee used to be your best AoE roll

#

was funny

bronze pike
#

Old grand melee

earnest remnant
#

all it did was give you leech and attack speed

midnight mist
bronze pike
earnest remnant
#

xD

midnight mist
#

You can fix why crackshot is "unpopular"

#

Takes about 5 min aswell

sharp viper
bronze pike
#

Enlighten us?

midnight mist
#

Gives outlaw back infinite energy

bronze pike
#

And rng aces

midnight mist
#

Ok well that's just false

bronze pike
midnight mist
#

Why

bronze pike
#

Cause it being 90+% uptime is the reason why outlaw energy is shit

midnight mist
#

Why

bronze pike
#

Like every other ā€œcdā€ maintence spec

#

Like old havoc

#

And old frost

#

Old fury

midnight mist
#

You remember when ADR wasn't your main source of energy

sharp viper
bronze pike
#

Etc etc

midnight mist
#

I. Remember

#

ADR was never energy

#

It just became energy for no reason

runic hinge
#

You don’t remember bfa how can we trust your memory

dreamy rover
#

YO i need to sleep good nithgt

#

sleep tight boyzer

bronze pike
#

I’m just saying

midnight mist
#

Ye I wasn't born in bfa

red schooner
runic hinge
#

I know my son

bronze pike
#

That’s usually how blizzard does this type of tuning

midnight mist
#

Ok except ADR isn't energy

dreamy rover
midnight mist
#

Wasn't energy

#

For like forever

#

So you are just wrong

red schooner
bronze pike
#

And now it is

midnight mist
#

Ye why

#

Cause they made a bad decision

bronze pike
#

Blizzard wanted it that way

subtle tundra
#

is adr 100% uptime?

midnight mist
#

Revert bad decision

bronze pike
golden loom
#

peak version of the spell #staymad

midnight mist
subtle tundra
midnight mist
#

If you say so

bronze pike
#

Either revert bad decisions or tune it healthy

midnight mist
#

ADR has always been high uptime

#

Since I started the game

#

If you want a spec with a cool down varas

#

It's probably not outlaw

subtle tundra
#

yes but it has gotten outrageous

bronze pike
royal lantern
sharp viper
bronze pike
#

Outlaw adr wasn’t super high uptime

midnight mist
#

I mean is there really a difference between 60% uptime and 90 lol

bronze pike
#

Now it’s insane

#

Cause ya know

midnight mist
#

Ye it wasn't

bronze pike
#

Underhanded upper hand

midnight mist
#

Right

sharp viper
#

I miss old UHUH

bronze pike
#

A huge difference Zac

#

30% uptime

#

Is big

earnest remnant
midnight mist
#

Ye the difference is you randomly drop it and do less damage instead of doing always the same damage

midnight mist
earnest remnant
#

Its an increase of 50%

midnight mist
#

If you told me there is a difference between sub cd uptime

#

And outlaw

#

I would have agreed

#

That you are telling me

#

Conceptually there is a huge difference between having 60% uptime and 90% uptime on your cd

bronze pike
#

I’m just saying

midnight mist
#

Idk man

#

Litteraly same shit, your cd is still not a cd

#

And it's an uptime thing

bronze pike
#

They change adr in a cringe way

midnight mist
#

Doesn't change anything

bronze pike
#

Increased its uptime to nearly 100%

#

And nerfed energy cause your supposed to have adr up 24/7

earnest remnant
#

wonder what AR uptime was in bfa

#

imma go look

bronze pike
#

Probably

midnight mist
#

i wish i could open sl logs

#

but you need to pay

bronze pike
#

60ish % of if I remember

#

Give or take

bronze pike
#

Cause corruptions was a thing

midnight mist
#

no but tell me why you think this should go hand in hand

#

because adr was never the main source of energy before

bronze pike
#

Cause blizzard is cringe

#

And they have done this historically

#

With multiple specs

midnight mist
#

Why would you change that while giving more ADR uptime

sharp viper
midnight mist
#

Ok and they made a mistake

#

Why not just revert the mistake

#

Instead of wanting to rework the whole spec

bronze pike
earnest remnant
#

expected about this much yeh

bronze pike
#

Brain still workge

midnight mist
#

And in SL we played like

bronze pike
midnight mist
#

Dust

sharp viper
#

I quit bfa during corruptions

midnight mist
#

Which was cdr on everything

earnest remnant
#

his top dmg wasent him tho xDDDDDDDDDD

sharp viper
#

absolute shitshow

midnight mist
#

We also played the ADR leggo

#

That was giving more ADR uptime

dawn seal
#

Lego

earnest remnant
dawn seal
#

I like legos

midnight mist
#

It's snog like outlaw has never been a high ADR uptime spec

#

Steslthi you pay for wcl?

bronze pike
midnight mist
#

Can you check S3 dust logs

earnest remnant
#

SL?

midnight mist
#

And uh I think it was S2 of 1 that we played the ADR leggo

#

Ye sl

#

Shadow dust kyrian

bronze pike
#

It was like

midnight mist
#

With double leggo

bronze pike
#

Idk

#

70ish%

midnight mist
#

It was sepulcher early logs

#

Not too early tho i think

#

I probably have some

bronze pike
#

Cracklaw

earnest remnant
earnest remnant
#

yeh i found em

bronze pike
#

Still not as outrageous as now

earnest remnant
#

uptime i posted was from Halondrus

#

from

midnight mist
#

ok

earnest remnant
midnight mist
earnest remnant
#

so i trusted it

midnight mist
#

Conceptually what does this change

bronze pike
#

but

midnight mist
#

Appart from making you more rng

subtle tundra
#

half the uptime?

midnight mist
#

Cause sometimes you aren't in your cd so you do less damage

#

Which isn't even controllable

bronze pike
#

But we had energy

midnight mist
#

Ok and again

bronze pike
#

It’s so very clear that they balance outlaw energy around the new add uptime

midnight mist
#

You keep acting like we have less energy cause we have more adr uptime

#

When we never had energy linked to ADR till the rework

#

They fucked up

bronze pike
#

Yes

midnight mist
#

And you are still acting like that's the issue

#

Instead of just addressing the actual issue

#

Which is,

bronze pike
#

And now energy is balanced around adr uptime

subtle tundra
#

your spec just sucks man

#

hard

midnight mist
#

Why does outlaw have 0 energy

bronze pike
#

The spec needs Jesus

normal kayak
#

Mornin' all

bronze pike
#

And needs another rework from the ground up

midnight mist
#

The spec doesn't need Jesus

#

Bro

#

It's always people that don't play the spec

#

That Perma ask for a full rework

bronze pike
#

Ghostly strike is at a state

midnight mist
#

Legit combat enjoyers

bronze pike
#

Where you macro it and forget

#

You use snd to generate cdr which is cringe

#

You have a million rtb rules for silly reasons

midnight mist
#

gs has alwasy been a bad spell

bronze pike
#

Vanish barely works

midnight mist
#

you dont snd

#

vanish is all fixed

bronze pike
#

Now

midnight mist
#

you rtb on cd till 5 buff

#

there is one rtb rule

bronze pike
#

It took like

midnight mist
#

you jsut dont play outalw

bronze pike
#

How many patches

midnight mist
#

stop yapping

bronze pike
#

Oh okay

#

Again

#

Whatever

midnight mist
#

Litteraly every point you made here is wrong buddy

subtle tundra
#

i hope outlaw never sees being meta again ā¤ļø

bronze pike
#

I don’t play outlaw cause I don’t agree with hivemind

midnight mist
#

No

bronze pike
midnight mist
#

You just listed a list of bad outlaw points

normal kayak
#

Zac's dropping knowledge this morning

midnight mist
#

That were all fixed

#

So what's your point

bronze pike
#

Ya vanish took a million years to fix and will be broken again at a drop of a dime like always

#

Ghostly has no place being a capstone

midnight mist
#

Ok and it's not broken rn

#

So why do you mention it

#

If anything

#

Stealth mechanics are less bugged on outlaw

#

Than assa rn

#

Did you know that

#

That's funny right

bronze pike
#

But these are bad points and I don’t play outlaw BearSmile even tho I frequent this spec since legion

midnight mist
#

The funny bugged stealth spec

midnight mist
#

You aren't even up to date with half the current things

#

Stealth hasn't been bugged this entire patch and you still mention It like it's an issue

bronze pike
#

Cause it was a huge issue for a shit ton of time

midnight mist
#

you know assa cant restealth with ma up

#

or cant vanish with ma up

bronze pike
#

And not mentioning its history and the fragility of vanish is trolling

#

Yes

midnight mist
#

and that people perma cmoplain about restealth on assa

midnight mist
#

its fixed

#

rbo this guy

bronze pike
#

Again shows how vanish is unstable and can break at any instance

midnight mist
#

ye so maybe lets not rework outlaw to break it again and just fix the current issues instead

#

how bout that

normal kayak
#

I mean, it ain't bugged now so it's a bit of a what-aboutism

bronze pike
#

If outlaw ever gets another stealth thing, I bet vanish will break again

midnight mist
#

Ok

golden loom
#

I hate hard casting slice and dice! (not a current issue but historically)

bronze pike
#

Adr uptime 90% and thus we have energy deficit when out of adr

#

Or is that fixed ?

#

Hmm

midnight mist
#

" guys outlaw need a complete rework!!"
"Why ??"
"Vanish is broken !!"
"They fixed it"
"Ok but historically it could be broken again and Nerd "

bronze pike
#

If that’s all you took from this entire convo

normal kayak
bronze pike
#

Then okay

#

Again no point talking about this

midnight mist
#
  • you refusing to address the actual energy issue
#

Just cause you dislike high ADR uptime

bronze pike
#

Using snd as cdr doing downtime only further this cringe unhealthy engine

#

Is also bad

midnight mist
#

You don't like outlaw just stop talking about it

sharp lily
#

ADR go burr what not to like

midnight mist
bronze pike
#

I love outlaw

#

That’s insane

#

To say

#

I don’t like outlaw

I would not play outlaw

I wouldn’t even touch fucking rogue

Stop gate keeping the fucking spec cause someone has a different opinion from you

I love outlaw cause its bis Rogue spec for transmog runs

also from what incredibly little I played of outlaw it all feels very fluid except for pressing rtb, take that shit off the GCD!!

You litteraly listed a list of "bad" points about outlaw

That were all fixed

Nah I’m done

What is better with the bleed Build in a boss fight, to vanish at 35% to use imp Garrot and Shiv or to use it Later when the boss is like at 10% and we can make him bleed out with sudden demise? šŸ˜„

midnight mist
#

Now we press it on cd basically

bronze pike
#

I don’t mind pressing rtb on cd tbh

steel ridge
# midnight mist or wdym by that

redundant as in the damage profile sucks and assassination and sub are just superior for raiding and sometimes even in m+ (just like last season or rn)

bronze pike
#

Very fun

#

Cool visual

SD is not efficient dmg

like sudden demise doing 15 mil damage on a mob with 150 mil health? pretty neat

sudden demise doing 15 mil damage on a boss with 1.5 bil health? kinda pointless

Ah that way

y i am new to the build and try to understand the dmg profil. Sometimes I totaly execute pacs and sometimes its mid

earnest remnant
#

Cuz I very much executed last boss rookery from 55m the other day

blissful pumice
#

i try to safe my vanish for the 35% phases and shiv and so on but sometimes it goes nuts and sometimes it dosent^^

earnest remnant
#

Got me confused af

balmy condor
#

you don't just randomly slam cds because you're in zoldyck range

#

zoldyck is a good talent, but it's not THAT good lmao

blissful pumice
#

yy in bossfight i get that, i was talkin about aoe now

balmy condor
#

for the most part you can completely ignore that zoldyck exists

#

like just don't think about it

#

and it'll do its thing

subtle tundra
#

wheres this coming from

vital flicker
subtle tundra
#

demise is a BONUS

#

treat it as such

golden loom
#

its the whole meal buddy

balmy condor
#

demise isn't even really a bonus

blissful pumice
balmy condor
#

it's much easier to think about it as preventing damage you would have lost

#

it's damage recovery

#

like you would've lost all the remaining bleed damage on a target if it died

golden loom
#

its stealing back damage from the damage team mates otherwise would steal from you

balmy condor
#

sudden demise means you lose less

#

it's not that you're gaining more, it's that you're losing less

hey guys how sanguine blades works? you need to cast it above 50%? or every tick it drains you 2 energy?

ā€œIs immo aura threat bugged??ā€

vital flicker

Y probably i got that wrong I thougt thats the way ur supposed to play around it

bronze pike
#

Cause noawh said it was bugged

#

When it’s not

normal kayak
#

Ass50%buffWHEN?

subtle orbit
#

so thats why im starving energy on ST with this build? its like energy never come back

subtle tundra
#

no

#

if youre starving on energy it means youre not above 50%, so sanguine blades is probably not even working

normal kayak
#

It's designed to pool at some points to be fair, kind of just got to ride it through

subtle tundra
#

with bleed build theres literally 0 pooling

normal kayak
#

You can't have 100% energy for 100% of the fight

#

Even in ST?

balmy condor
# bronze pike When it’s not

I mean it's also just like, a very strange build if you're a random assa andy that doesn't understand what the hell any of your talents do. There's so many people that look at it and go "no kingsbane? must be trolling" cause they can't think for more than 3 seconds, it's the same shit with "I didn't see bleed build on murlok.io". Like if you don't know what's going on, I think it's pretty reasonable to just read a capstone and go "big bleed demise big number big zold 35%, demise 35% gg hp go 35% I press button"

but in reality it's like.... nothing really changes, you just don't hit kingsbane anymore and you can be more aggressive with your bleeds cause envenom does less and you just move on with your life

balmy condor
#

if bleeds are in pandemic, you bleed

#

if they aren't, you dont

bronze pike
#

Also Whipsyr

Your supposed to say

ā€œYou don’t play the spec, stop yappingā€

Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs

blissful pumice

ah thank you

I really enjoy sin rouge, But I cant decide If I like the bleed build, or the kingsbane bulild, Can someone just give a Quick pros and cons?

blissful pumice

Jesus I played it totaly wrong then I always thougt i have to maximise the Demise dmg and always went for fresh dots

midnight mist
bronze pike
#

If I don’t share same opinion then I’m spreading misinfo

bronze pike
#

Got it

midnight mist
#

It's not an opinion to say that vanihs is broken and it's an issue when it litteraly was fixed

royal lantern
midnight mist
#

That's not an opinion that's just you being wrong

bronze pike
#

Talking about how vanish historically had issues and even tho it’s fixed now doesn’t mean the ability isnt fucking unstable and still has issues with sub and sin

#

Is totally misinfo

#

Got it

golden loom
#

now it kinda feels like ur trying to gaslight zac that he was an asshole for pointing out that current stuff just isnt broken

#

weird idk

bronze pike
#

I’ll drop it

#

Cause again whatever

midnight mist
#

totally what you were saying

bronze pike
#

The spec needs Jesus yes

midnight mist
#

Whatever

vale lantern
#

Spec is fine

bronze pike
#

And vanish barely worked for the longest time until recently, until another vanish thing gets added snd it inevitably bricks again

balmy condor
# buoyant pumice I really enjoy sin rouge, But I cant decide If I like the bleed build, or the ki...

bleed build is easier, more fluid with your cooldowns cause you don't need to sync up your kingsbanes and deathmarks, easier to play generally, doesn't require you have an insanely big target that survives your full cooldowns to spatter off of for your damage, deathmark isn't as important in aoe, you get bigger sudden demise pops which can result in more prio damage and more aoe. better single target, generally equal or better aoe/prio, has good execute phase

hybrid is better in 2-4 target cleave, higher burst generally with kingsbane, more envenom focused, and uhhhhhh that's about it

If blizzard looks at us there’s a 50% chance it’ll be a bad look keep evading the patch notes

#

Or just don't lie?

balmy condor
#

at the end of the day, they're both passionate about outlaw but for different reasons and both of em get heated and then get angry and it's fine

#

is what it is

#

as long as I don't have to mod either of them I couldn't care

vale lantern
#

Although I recently discovered I can’t play the bleed build with another bleed build rogue as one of us eats all the sudden demises and me playing the build build encouraged other to swap to it so I’m a warlock gamer in keys now

balmy condor
#

playing double assa in keys to begin with is just insane work

vale lantern
#

Well they were outlaw

#

And spriest

#

And then they saw the power of bleeds

balmy condor
#

well if they were outlaw then no issue

vital flicker
#

Is Vanish actually bugged for Sin or is it just MA that is bugged?

balmy condor
#

what

vale lantern
balmy condor
#

oh so you did run double assa then

vital flicker
balmy condor
#

yeah that's MA

vale lantern
vital flicker
#

so are there actually any vanish bugs for sin?

bronze pike
#

Double stacking a spec

#

Is oof

balmy condor
#

no

balmy condor
#

vanish works fine for sin

vale lantern
bronze pike
#

The things tied to vanish has issues most of time which I find silly

midnight mist
bronze pike
#

I can’t even say they need to focus on rogue

balmy condor
bronze pike
#

Cause every spec has so many cringe bugs

vital flicker
midnight mist
#

Unless they fixed that but I tested it when they fixed the outlaw bugs and it was still bugged so

bronze pike
midnight mist
balmy condor
#

yeah okay

#

so then it's exactly what I said

bronze pike
#

But outlaw had a lot of vanish bugs for years

balmy condor
#

oh

midnight mist
#

Had*

balmy condor
#

well that's outlaw fantasy

#

having a trillion bugs that don't get fixed

bronze pike
#

Positive bugs that don’t get reported :)

subtle tundra
#

well its a recent problem with MA+subterfuge

midnight mist
balmy condor
#

positive bugs do get reported though

#

well idk if they get reported

subtle tundra
#

it was working fine until the subterfuge rework

midnight mist
#

He back again with his positive bugs conspiracy

balmy condor
#

idk who on outlaw is reporting things these days

midnight mist
#

When it's literally the only bugs that get fixed

balmy condor
#

but they get fixed at least

bronze pike
#

I do what I can

vital flicker

the last thing blizzard did for rogue was fixing an outlaw bug

midnight mist

I cba with this guy

bronze pike

Just finished catching up the outlaw debate still going at it POGGERS

bronze pike
#

But like

#

Can the game be shipped

#

For one patch

#

Without so many fucking bugs spread out to every class

midnight mist
#

Kinda too late for that now

bronze pike
#

In the game

midnight mist
#

They have a backlog of like

10 k bugs per spec

So

balmy condor

Would be cool if they didn't add new ones every patch tho but oh well

That the reason why .5 have 0 class changes

subtle tundra

its a direct result of the increased content releases

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
