#

follow that guideline and upgrade your gear as it fits

balmy condor
#

I literally cannot find a way to path this better, it's all either equal points or worse KEKL it looks so insano cancer but I'm just gonna put a split personality in there and say it's intended

worthy rose
#

realistically by the end of the season you will be swimming in excess of gilded crests

#

so it doesnt really matter

#

ye, i will go after that order then :)

balmy condor
#

that one fucking int node sitting there

#

just hanging out

#

being a useless twat

#

whatever

#

cba

royal lantern
#

just like me fr

balmy condor
#

I mean yes but no

#

technically it should be a jugg accuracy/strength stacker

#

but that's so lame and attribute stacking is expensive and shit

#

so I'm just gonna do a regular version

#

if he wants to accuracy stack on jugg later it's a pretty easy respec

trail scarab
#

yeah attribute always costs a lot, but somewhat infinite upgrade path too which is nice :D

#

regular also blasts tho

balmy condor
#

chieftain is also free 90% max res and 7 link chest

#

so it's kinda just win win

trail scarab
#

yeah for sure

#

played that icenova frostbolt hierophant build last league, bought an mtx and i had to refund it

#

xd

balmy condor
trail scarab
#

the mail i got back was pretty much "i completely understand you"

#

turbo epilepsy combination of mtxes

cedar iron
trail scarab
#

1 extra point then if u take the cluster jewel socket and take the int node

balmy condor
#

I was taking a two hand notable in that bottom area but I moved those points out so now I think it's just drop the socket

#

probably the correct move

#

does rogue generally just have lower hp than most other classes btw?

prime hull
#

check my dk

trail scarab
#

i have always felt so tanky on rogue (probably due to hardstacking versa in the past), but this expansion has been an eye opener to how much shit i run into

#

haha

#

11.2 mill holy

#

im 7.8mill atm but only 655 ilvl so far

coarse summit
royal lantern
#

most classes have some mandatory stamina nodes you are forced to take, rogue has none

#
  • rogue has just lower base hp
balmy condor
#

but you're correct that the top would be better that way

worthy rose
#

and also as sin we dont have much vers or other damage reductions

#

so you gotta be on point with positioning

#

and not dying

prime hull
#

If feint doesn't work on an ability as rogue you are in trouble.

buoyant herald
#

Outlaw has a stam node but I don’t think anything else does

worthy rose
#

doesnt outlaw and sub both stack vers

#

which at the very least gives you like an extra 10% damage reduction

#

flat

humble verge
#

ja

#

pretty much

worthy rose
#

which can be the difference of getting instantly wasted

#

or surviving by like 3mil hp

humble verge
#

thats why zeross swap to sub for candle guy

worthy rose
#

although with outlaw

#

you have the problem of killing spree griefing you or your team

#

man

humble verge
#

just dont?

#

hello

worthy rose
#

whenever i play outlaw with my friends

#

its fuckin hilarious

#

IM SENDING KILLING SPREE GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

humble verge
#

i should start learning other specs for weeklies

humble verge
#

it gets boring topping the meters

worthy rose
#

literally me with killing spree

humble verge
#

ah yes

#

using KS on sprocket

#

So is Priest a good class right now? Trying to waste time leveling alts to stave off depression

versed mica
worthy rose
#

if you were a good priest before

#

you can eb a good shadow priest

#

but its not that easy to play

worthy rose
#

fuckin

#

memes

#

to be fair i dont play outlaw when pushing

#

i still go to sin

#

but when we are trolling to powering alts through dungeons

#

i send it on outlaw to give everyone a meme

#

i only recently discovered killing spree doesnt make u immune to all damage like i thought

haughty flicker
#

they just buffed psychic link and any time they do that shadow becomes batshit op

worthy rose
#

it just spreads it out over time

#

fucking

#

what a useless ability

haughty flicker
#

so spriest must be good atm

worthy rose
#

holy shit outlaw is in a way inting

#

shadow can be strong

#

i mean i was doing 3.5m overall dps on 10's as 650

#

i think if i scaled to 680 i could be doing 4mil easily

#

should be a fairly strong pushable spec

#

but i think its hard to actually play shadow well coz youre an immobile wheelchair class

#

too many opportunities to int

# coral ibex where the fuck is the swim up bar

I once accidentally got some of the evil, evil water from the galveston hilton swim-up bar in my body. It started as a bacterial sinus infection, migrated up and became pink eye, and migrated town and became bronchitis. swim up bars are a place of great evil

worthy rose
#

food drinks and swimming pools dont really mix together all that well tbh

#

theres those instagrammable pics of people in bali with the floating tray of food etc

#

but the insects and reality of it is not that pretty

nimble tartan
#

bro i got a charcuterie board for my pool

#

it works baby

#

and a cupholder for my margarita

queen rover
#

after my opener without using vanish, should i be focusing on garroting mobs if they still have decent hp? and maintain ruptures? nothing else i should be doing?

runic hinge
#

Normal garrotes don’t do that much damage

hoary moon
runic hinge
#

Scent of blood

hoary moon
hoary moon
#

Whispyr's Wowhead guide says to use garrote as your main gen during IC but outside of that says to just maintain on your main target

#

Keeping multiple garrotes out would generate more energy through venomous wounds, but in aoe with enough ruptures out im guessing that doesnt matter

magic summit
#

Hey first time really ever sitting down with Rouge and going I wanna main this out of all 3 what do you think long term be the best to “main” understanding each has a pro and con (pure M+)

#

You can choose between assa and outlaw

For this current patch of tuning

Bleed vs Hybrid vs Cleave/FI builds
Broad rules and Section in Guide:

  1. If you have to ask, you should play bleed
  2. If you're not doing +17's or higher (or rookery), you should play bleed

Some general concepts as to why people play different things:

  • Ease of play: Bleed build is simply the easiest to play due to subterfuge/no kingsbane/less need for giant prio targets
  • Boss damage: The cleave/zeross build is mainly for boss damage. Assa single target in keys is pretty bad, and the bosses would not be possible otherwise
  • Specific Dungeons: Rookery as an example is very boss-heavy, especially the last boss, making bleed less ideal.
  • Where the damage is: Bleed spreads out its damage and does great overall due to sudden demise and powerful 3-8 target damage. Hybrid is competitve but doesn't pull ahead until bigger AoE. Cleave is for single target damage and insanely large aoe because of how much caustic and crimson tempest carry aoe damage.
balmy condor
#

that explains most of it

magic summit
#

Thank you so much Whispyr for the info very helpful

balmy condor
#

np

hoary moon
#

Ive been practising a little with the hybrid/zeross build because the comp i run with friends lacks a lot of ST

balmy condor
#

I spend a lot of time keeping the wowhead guide super in depth

#

so would suggest just reading around on that

worthy rose
#

not to glaze based whispy

#

but out of the wowhead guides ive read

#

the assassination guide is one of the best

#

quality and actually implementable in gameplay

magic summit
#

Would WS be another key that's not ideal for it? Like what rook is ?

balmy condor
#

less so, but yes

worthy rose
#

workshop has a lot of aoe pulls so youd want to use bleed

#

theatre of pain/rookery are probs hte ones you want to hybrid on

#

if you dont trust your teams st

#

alternatively also if youre carrying your friends through dungeons and gearing alts

#

you probably want to use hybrid

solar wyvern
#

Bleed is good in rookery assuming you switch to sub for the last 1/3 of the dungeon

#

Bleed on voidstone monstrosity tho is a bit cursed

worthy rose
#

i think for a balanced option you could probably go bleed build on the opening pull to get off big pp damage

#

then immediaetly leave instance and come back in as hybrid

#

or alternatievly sub the last 1/3

#

subbing the last 1/3 requires a warlock right

solar wyvern
#

Nah I'd just start hybrid if i was to do that the whole time

#

2 prio targets in first pull anyway

nimble tartan
solar wyvern
#

And no swapping is free

nimble tartan
#

i only ever played bleed build i only do 12s

solar wyvern
#

After gorren the shortcut opens up and you spawn downstairs

#

So its -25 seconda for 3 shields on last boss and a good dps profile for downstairs

worthy rose
#

i think the transition where the bosses start having a bit too much hp in general requiring hybrid is if youre doing 15-16's

#

and your team is a bit sussy on st damage

#

if you got like a throbbin arcane mage or something in your team you can stay bleed up to 17 probs

solar wyvern
#

You can play bleed in 19s unironically

#

Its comp dependent

balmy condor
#

there's monsters like this

#

cards + priory bleed in a 19

#

and they're timing

worthy rose
#

yeah whats the team comp tho

balmy condor
runic hinge
#

Wish it was me

worthy rose
#

do they have a throbbin hunter or mage or something

#

is feral insane on single target?

#

or are these guys just that good

earnest remnant
#

autumn idol

balmy condor

earnest remnant
#

damn your spec sucks

worthy rose
#

#

solar wyvern
#

Welll its not st

#

There is def war machines

balmy condor
#

yah I mean the boss is st but they pulled stuff in

worthy rose
#

oh

#

that makes more sense

balmy condor
#

lot of bosses you pull stuff in

worthy rose
#

i think you NEED to pull robots in

solar wyvern
#

Yeah ftb is much more dps with 2 targets

worthy rose
#

unholy and bleed builder

#

you almost guaranteed need to pull two in

autumn idol
#

i mean you are griefing in ML if you don't pull the war machine in

solar wyvern
#

Everyone does nowadays tbh

autumn idol
#

with 3rd boss

solar wyvern
#

Both machines and specialist

worthy rose
#

ive seen teams wipe trying to pull the robot into rixxa

#

dont ask me how i know

balmy condor

AHAHA

runic hinge
#

Time to reroll back

solar wyvern
#

Spell reflect is so op on that boss haha

autumn idol
#

what is this actual no ST comp

balmy condor
#

turns out like fucking 85% of a key is still aoe

earnest remnant
#

its a boss with downtime so numbers just look low

balmy condor
#

and most of the time save in m+ is still aoe

earnest remnant
#

that prot warrior is doing INFINITE

balmy condor
#

cause like

#

dungeon

#

and dungeon is aoe

solar wyvern
#

Prot war just cranks every key tbh

#

Class is nutso

runic hinge
#

Dungeon these nuts to your chin

autumn idol
#

no

runic hinge
#

Wait I forgot a step

autumn idol
#

ew

balmy condor
#

and ST optimizations are like fine and all but it's not insano time save and omega optimizing for ST ends up being like a lot of cope and stuff

#

weird

#

idk

#

who knew!

solar wyvern
#

It starts mattering the most in 20s where bosses legit take forever

earnest remnant
#

phase 1

runic hinge
#

No no. It’s the 85% of the time spent on aoe that’s just pad

earnest remnant
solar wyvern
#

Reflect op

balmy condor
#

top 1% of title players need the ST

#

solar wyvern
#

Ye

winged sun

solar wyvern
#

Yeah

#

Like every 45 seconds its up

winged sun
#

i think its like

#

rly good cuz

#

any downtime is a gain for void ritual

autumn idol
#

not bad

solar wyvern
#

I had void ritual during sub cds on rookery last boss every time

#

Kindof insane

winged sun
#

but ye prob still TD for most players anyway

haughty flicker
#

beam go brrr

winged sun
solar wyvern
#

I haven't actually tried TD yet i probably should to see how it is

winged sun
#

this mount goes hard

hoary moon
solar wyvern
#

Yeah bro the trading post goes so hard this month

winged sun
#

hi, supposedly i kinda do but im lazy lately

autumn idol
#

supposedly

#

rumor has it

winged sun
#

and im prob gonna charge abig amount anyway so its not worth it if u can read a wowhead guide xdd

solar wyvern
#

Zeross hey can you coach my m+ friends to tell them reacting to a missed kick with kidney sometimes takes 2 globals

#

Madge

winged sun
#

alert kidney is extremely bad never press it alert r1 rogue says so alert

#

copy this

solar wyvern
#

Thank you

winged sun
#

(kidney is really good btw)

solar wyvern
#

Ill paypal you 5000$ now

winged sun
#

sheeeeeeesh

solar wyvern
#

Hehe

hoary moon
#

Rank 1 or not, im 7 second kidney shotting the demolitionist in floodgate every time

spice surge
#

Its 8 seconds'

winged sun
#

idk what people need coaching for tho, sin is extremely straight forward

#

rupture 2 mobs

#

and

#

spam envenoms

solar wyvern
#

I like using kidney but my group double cap+shockwave stuff

#

So what do i even kidney

winged sun
#

like

#

i can give extremely detailed info if ur already good

#

but if ur missing the basics

winged sun
#

wowhead is the play

spice surge
#

(stun before)

ashen totem
#

all these 500000 specs with their no target needed, no hands on the keyboard needed aoe cc, and i have to press kidney that uses combo points???

winged sun
ashen totem
#

on god

#

yeah lemme kidney after shaman double totem

#

ill be right there

spice surge
#

Kidney should ignore DR BASED

winged sun
solar wyvern
#

Lowkey single target stuns should have their own dr table

spice surge
#

And massively reduce how many mobs have truesight so i can use shroud, kthx

#

Instead of meld skips with vengeance

winged sun
#

ngl u can shroud alot of more things than u think this season

solar wyvern
#

Kidney, cheapshot, hoj, fel eruption, go so unused sometimes

winged sun
#

lots of true eye sight mobs that dont really see you if u distract

spice surge
winged sun
#

kinda

spice surge
#

Rookery has some actual shroud skips

hoary moon
winged sun
#

this one is nice

spice surge
#

If the mob is facing away it has slightly less aggro range

winged sun
winged sun
#

u can shroud this too

spice surge
#

Ye ik

winged sun
#

u can go the arrow side or also hug the wall

spice surge
#

Thats the exception

winged sun
#

both works

snow hamlet
#

Is there any problem with TD in rik? I only triggered it once in 3 mins yesterday

winged sun
#

this shroud is so sketchy

spice surge
#

Stop being unlucky

winged sun
#

i think

#

the blob guy

#

has true eye sight

#

or a semi true eye sight

#

he can see far

#

so u have to be fast

#

+distract

#

u can distract this and shroud

#

very safe and easy skip

solar wyvern
#

Waiiiit that mechagon shroud is sick

winged sun
#

not very safe if distract ends

winged sun
solar wyvern
#

I feel like its safer to just jump the stairs haha

spice surge
#

Distracting the patrol in the mechagon gauntlet but pugs never realize you did it so they wait the full 10s

winged sun
#

shroud is fast and very safe

spice surge
#

Just fade past and grip garf_sit

#

Im gonna enlist this technology hmmge

#

Funnel on kujo goes so hard

winged sun
#

i did double boss dmg of 2nd player on one of my kujo kills

solar wyvern
#

Topkek

#

Im already blasting that boss now that we pull to box for whiteswings

winged sun
#

i invested so much time into this season ngl

#

it's been abit exhausting

#

still learning new things everyday tho

solar wyvern
#

Its a good season tbh

#

Lots of small tech and optimization

#

Do you guys sap the technician or defender on machinist gardens or pull it full lust

#

We've been debating sapping the technician so squirrels fuck off till later

#

Wiped a 14 minute left gardens pull on 20 to it grrr

fervent fractal
#

even for the rookery go bleed right

hoary moon
#

For rookery if you swap to sub for the last third, is there any chance of taking iron wire for the start?

#

Or is there no chance that's worth it in any way

balmy condor
#

go for it

about pc's exploding, quite funny because i did do something that made my pc explode

runic hinge
winged sun
#

i read about someone writing his pc exploded i thought he was joking about it

#

it was windows related stuff

#

i did it and my pc literally exploded the same day

#

dark times

#

gladly it was only the power supply

#

rule #1 dont trust indian micosoft guides

indigo mulch
winged sun
indigo mulch
#

Nothing bad will happen

#

I promise.

winged sun
#

have had enough with messing with my pc

indigo mulch
#

Actually doing it, its called a fork bomb lmao

winged sun
#

the day my pc exploded it still haunts me

indigo mulch
#

It recursivly spawns new processes then overloads your sytem.

winged sun
#

i'll never do weird things again, my major isn't tech related anyway so i dont need to learn random shit

olive harbor
#

overclocking is the best way to fry cpus

indigo mulch
#

Anyone dealing with coding have once or twice stumbled onto a recursive bug of some sort.

olive harbor
#

is a passion, expensive one

indigo mulch
winged sun
olive harbor
#

yeah thats my problem

coral ibex
#

ive overclocked every cpu ive owned since 2007 and its never been an issue

#

its just free performance

olive harbor
#

probably you know what are doing

winged sun
#

well

indigo mulch
#

I mean.. it depends if you volt clock it or not ;s

coral ibex
#

following recommendations via the internet is tough yea

#

its really as simple as googling "<cpu sku> overclocking"

winged sun
#

idk

#

that video

#

just made me not trust any indian tech guide ever again

olive harbor
#

hahaha

winged sun
#

next time im hearing that accept im pressing X instantly

#

i was like WTF MY PC LITERALLY EXPLODED

#

like

#

holy shit 9636omegalul

indigo mulch
#

Honestly overclocking is generally never dangerous if you don't start flashing your cpu/motherboard etc.

olive harbor
#

thats my problem

coral ibex
#

basically every modern cpu will just turn itself off before it fries itself though

winged sun
#

its not even overclocking it was just some windows shit i forgot what it was about but

olive harbor
#

got rev 1.0 on motherboard and needed 1.3

coral ibex
#

you have to really fuck up to fry a cpu these days

winged sun
#

i was trying to do something

#

and i think it overloaded my PSU

winged sun
olive harbor
#

ok , is not rogue stuff, so its fine, lets the past in the past, gn guys

winged sun
#

gn cuh

indigo mulch
winged sun
#

best thing u can do is the ram thing

#

and thats it

#

that literally overclocks ur pc safely

#

without needing to worry about shit

#

it'll never cause problems

#

legit impossible

#

for insane performance gains

indigo mulch
#

in 99% of the bios nowdays you can just put your pc in "turbo mode" and that clocks it for yah.

#

If you don't want to mess with the voltage yourself.

winged sun
#

voltage stuff is just for nerds

indigo mulch
#

Thats how you clock pc's though 😄

winged sun
#

that literally do overclocking as much as u play wow

#

well

indigo mulch
#

People are using liquid nitrogen to OC shit.

winged sun
#

yea

coral ibex
#

10% performance is 10% performance

winged sun
#

ngl 0.1% is surprisingly high

#

wtf

#

i guess boosting is super popular atm

runic hinge
#

Can you boost me to 3k

balmy condor
#

3k top 10%

winged sun
#

huh 3k wdym boost to 3k

#

u can do that like

balmy condor
#

yep

winged sun
#

with ur eyes closed

balmy condor
#

well 9/10 people can't

#

apparently

winged sun
#

i guess

#

well

balmy condor
#

perfect middle is like 2500 based on that

winged sun
#

3k is prob like

#

if ur 683 ilvl

#

u can legit do any keys on that lvl

#

and not kick/stop anything

#

and get 3k

#

u just do ur dps rotation and its gg

#

WHAT

#

3K

#

IS LITERALLY +12S

#

and 3 +13

#

u have to be trolling tony

runic hinge
#

I think you underestimate how bad the average wow player is

#

But yeah I already have 3k xdd

winged sun
#

nah like

#

no way like 12s are so easy

#

i 2 chested with my shit ass dh

#

i think most players just miss gcd's 24/7

#

because u can literally do 12s with ur eyes closed

#

most shit dont hurt there

#

i guess i just play wow alot idk

hoary moon
winged sun
#

and people ask about spellqueue

#

when they have no idea what it even means

indigo mulch
#

Spellqueue? D:

#

I thought that was something casters did.

#

guys is there any weakaura or addon that shows the raid time of the start of the pull

solar wyvern
queen rover
#

so in a big pull like cinder, how do we maximise our bleeds? amb > gar > rup > rup > temp > garrote spam till IC ends?

topaz crow
#

i believe in big pulls u should be trying to maximize you caustic spatter. It'll usually be ur #1 or #2 damage in a key

solar wyvern
#

Are you bleed or hybrid

queen rover
#

bleed, im new to sin

solar wyvern
#

Garrote and rupture spam spatter when MA is finished

#

Ofc use CT as well

autumn idol
#

i liked gettin CT as early as possible due to MA and higher crit when playing bleed

solar wyvern
#

Yeah rupture rupture ct

Okay we’ve gone from the circlet to dinars and corruptions, what date can we start asking annoying questions about the DISC belt @balmy condor

you never spam CT because it doesn't do upfront damage anymore, it's purely a DoT

you can sometimes refresh it earlier to get a cheeky sudden demise proc

On Mythic Stix, is the bombshells normally your lowest damage %?

#

the spell queue is a different thing from "spell queueing" ie making sure a cast is ready for your current cast to end

rotund oak
#

think of it like a sequence programmers did to actually make the game having a flow

#

blocks in which spells get into and follow the line

#

one after another

#

thats spellque

rotund oak
#

its just the cast bar prolly that gives it a different feeling

but not 100% certain

Bleed vs Hybrid vs Cleave/FI builds
Broad rules and Section in Guide:

  1. If you have to ask, you should play bleed
  2. If you're not doing +17's or higher (or rookery), you should play bleed

Some general concepts as to why people play different things:

  • Ease of play: Bleed build is simply the easiest to play due to subterfuge/no kingsbane/less need for giant prio targets
  • Boss damage: The cleave/zeross build is mainly for boss damage. Assa single target in keys is pretty bad, and the bosses would not be possible otherwise
  • Specific Dungeons: Rookery as an example is very boss-heavy, especially the last boss, making bleed less ideal.
  • Where the damage is: Bleed spreads out its damage and does great overall due to sudden demise and powerful 3-8 target damage. Hybrid is competitve but doesn't pull ahead until bigger AoE. Cleave is for single target damage and insanely large aoe because of how much caustic and crimson tempest carry aoe damage.

That’s the cleave build

Appreciate you, just started playing Assass, trying to figure out what all these builds do lol

#

Thoughts on Gushing Wound over Echoing Void? I have seen other sin rogues using it

balmy condor
#

And that’s why murlok.io and archon and all these data aggregation websites are a dogshit scourge to society that do nothing of value and hold no purpose other than to confuse people who would be better off just reading a fucking guide

brittle rover

for higher keys that makes sense

So if insert top m+ player goes and does raids after their push

#

And logs out in a raid build

crystal geode
#

thats kinda fucking stupid what? LOL

balmy condor
#

Now all of a sudden all the sites go “HEY HERES THE TALENTS!” And it’s just a raid build

crystal geode
#

I didn't know that

balmy condor
#

Or like raider.io’s key thing, if they swap specs in the middle of the key it doesn’t know

#

Which is frankly not their fault

rotund oak
balmy condor
#

But then like the key finished on sub

#

So it’s a sub key

#

But they were only sub for the last boss

balmy condor
#

If something can be blinded it gets blinded, works like any other disorient

#

Basically stun that breaks on damage

rotund oak
#

yeah thats what i thought

balmy condor
#

I mean some things can’t be blinded

rotund oak
#

yeah only thing tht makes sense

#

claimed that 1st mega pull in workshop blind doesnt work

#

everytime

balmy condor
#

Idk bout those specifically

rotund oak
#

i think ive blinded everytime and it worked

#

traps work,db works

anyways thanks @balmy condor Ill play around with the bleed build since ive been mostly using the cleave one

balmy condor

Bleed build super chill

#

Feel free to come back and ping me that it’s shit and my guide is shit and rank 1 rogues don’t play it when you don’t time a key

That’s why they play cleave

#

HOLY though my opener on 5 target went from 5mil to 9mil

#

Ily

balmy condor
#

Uh huh

#

Brain off press bleed gg win game

nova kelp
#

the issue with keys is they're brief, so even on occasion along side really good players they just have a bad key, a bad run, a poorly timed pull after some miss clicks

so sometimes you'll feel like "oh man, I'm blasting this time"
and on the very next run "why am I so fucking dogshit"
and then sometimes you're compariing yourself to people who are experiencing those things at their end

Do skills as an assassination rogue transfer to outlaw or sub, or its an entire new gamut of things to learn

nova kelp
#

no and no
sub is weird
outlaw is custom built for giga zoomers on meds

and french people

runic hinge
#

And French zoomers on too much caffeine

nova kelp
#

LOL

subtle tundra
#

hey man sub and assa both have rupture

nova kelp
#

a bit more in depth though
sin is very chill in terms of rogue landscape, it's very forgiving
sub is kinda chill... 50% of the time, the rest of the time is in your brief windows of actual dps, dropping a single gcd in this window will cripple you (not really but kinda) - So it's hyper time sensitive and focused into brief windows
outlaw is zero chill, ever, unless you play it poorly - The constant influx of important to react to information will bring you severe mental fatigue if you don't play it often

waxen oyster
#

Outlaw makes every other dps

#

feel slow paced

#

comparatively

nova kelp
#

playing outlaw for a season, will cause any single cadence button pressing spec, to feel like actual torture

waxen oyster

i played outlaw in df s3 on some bosses

what class/spec is rogues soul sister

feral?

buoyant herald
#

yeah, druid was originally designed to be "this other class but not"

keen pecan
#

was thinking of WW monk

buoyant herald
#

feral has always had a lot of analogues with rogue

keen pecan
#

but im 99% wrong

buoyant herald
#

i don't play feral but WW monk does feel similar, but that's just energy things i think

#

feral still has energy --> builder-->spender

#

monk doesn't really have the second part

#

well kinda

#

but not as close as feral does

subtle tundra
#

the 3 rogue specs are wildly different, you cant find a class/spec similar to all 3

#

feral to assa

#

outlaw to fury(?)

#

sub to my nuts

normal mist
#

Seems like rook is a dungeon where you want to prioritize ST more indeed

ocean root
# normal mist Too many variables

Such as? I think wow logs is kind of hard to track the optimal damage done or dps players do. Also some of the fights are not even logged....

broken lion
#

I use hybrid already so I was wondering if I should change for rook

#

as I saw some ppl discuss it

normal mist
#

Bleed should be used overall because it's easier up until 17s or even higher depending if your groups needs more ST/prio or not.
If you're already not using it, then you're already using the right build for rook I assume

normal mist
#

Plus chainpulls - how well the tanks do them

#

There really isn't a formula for this

subtle tundra
#

you should generally do more than the tank and healer

ocean root
#

Is there any other site (except wow logs) or guide for the dmg done and dps on each key?

normal mist
subtle tundra
#

youre thinking too deep, do your rotation correctly and enjoy being an op aoe spec

#

theres no such tool for checking dps

low ruin
#

whats the issue with wcl? you can literally filter by spec, dungeon, dmg done and key level which is exactly the info you want right?

ocean root
#

On m+

subtle tundra
#

well if theres a lack of logs then its not like you can find any more data out of magic

#

every tool uses logs

low ruin
#

and pretty much every tool scrapes wcl

balmy condor
#

m+ requires a much larger population to get semi-accurate community data from logs

#

in raids the fights are similar and predictable, m+ just introduces way too much variety in pull size, speed, comps

#

when people use cds and hold cds changes the flow of the rest of the dungeon

#

so to counter all the added variance, you just need more raw data to generalize from

#

and that's just not happening any time soon

subtle tundra
#

blizzard needs to make logging automatic

#

no secrets anymore, pure data

low ruin
#

mayb after addonapocalypse they'll go after wcl next and do auto logging to their own tool

balmy condor
#

if anything, they're gonna get rid of it

subtle tundra
#

NO?

balmy condor
#

part of the whole arms race between blizzard and the community is driven by logs/details

subtle tundra
#

that would be a massive downgrade

balmy condor
#

yes

#

that's the point

subtle tundra
#

i did not understand that from what you typed

#

btichj

balmy condor
#

if blizzard didn't want to downgrade third party tools and addons, they wouldn't be clamping down so hard

frigid kestrel
#

I thought they said they were planning on creating tools to see the same data in game before they removed it. I could have sworn their reasoning was to limit specific addons, but not get rid of the information.

low ruin
#

they are going to do exactly that

balmy condor
haughty flicker
#

they very clearly stated that they just dont want you to have some information

#

some other information they claimed they want to make more easy to see in game

#

but a lot will just be gone

balmy condor
#

I think it's insanely delusional to think that blizzard's implementation of weakauras or plater would be anything even half as powerful

frigid kestrel
subtle tundra
#

i need my ass whoooped

balmy condor
#

I mean it just doesn't make logical sense

#

regardless of reading or not reading

red schooner
#

I don't even know why they released cooldown manager in its current state, because it's just... Not there yet

balmy condor
#

if you think about it for a bit

#

and think about what weakauras are capable of

#

the whole private aura thing they started to try and curb it

#

it's just silly to think blizzards versions will be even comparable

frigid kestrel
#

O no, im speaking on specifically something like "details" or "logs"

#

They def tryna get rid of or reduce WeakAuras

balmy condor
#

I mean logs is the same thing to some extent

#

the info in logs is immense

#

remember when logs tried to make a details overlay and blizzard cracked em for it?

#

now logs have a built in delay

royal lantern
frigid kestrel
rotund oak
balmy condor
#

I mean forget the CT wa

#

#

rotund oak
#

yeah and that

#

generally stuff like that

royal lantern
# balmy condor it's just silly to think blizzards versions will be even comparable

the problem imo is

they showed nothing at all that can work as a replacement

thw "cooldown tracker"? its literally ussules for many specs, tracks often ussules things/things that have nothing to track in the first place (why is frking mutilate on it lol?) and it got 0updates since then

and at the same time we cant even track our own buffs, or debuff/dots on enemys for 20years now without 3rd party tools, and almost all specs are Designed around being able to do that

#

like, show me something that gives me confidence it works out

#

cus right now? it looks like something that could legit kill the game

balmy condor
#

it's not supposed to replace

#

again

#

that is the entire point

#

it's a downgrade on purpose

#

how do you make addons less impactful and remove their power if your replacements are going to be just as powerful

royal lantern
#

like, let me see my fucking dots in a reasonable manner first blizz

#

jfc

rotund oak
#

no shot we can ever see dots better than a plater

#

ever

#

there is jsut no way to embody such information

frigid kestrel
#

Its a downgrade, with some additives for specific things they think the game should already have. I think Ion was saying they should have already had cooldown trackers and some other things. But there are alot of tings they do not want to have in game.

royal lantern
#

if the "cooldown tracker" would atleast show the timer of the dots on your current target like all wa packs do

#

but it doesnt even do that

balmy condor
hollow dirge

Something that feels a bit weird that I personally noticed with fury warrior is that last patch you would press execute when it lit up
This patch though I have to have a weakaura make the catching sound to know that all the conditions are met to press execute

just cause some numbers and procs and whatever got changed around, that u dont really play around they just happen automatically in the background

# balmy condor why are you so insufferable about these big picture conversations

again:

i want blizz to show something in the first place like, at all first

im not against the idea itself, the idea is good

but when they go and say "we wanna make 3rd Party stuff weaker/disable it at some points and make our own things" when the 2 "addon replacements" they added (edit mode and CD tracker) are at best very mediocre (edit mode) and at worst for many things not even really usable and with 0customisation that it needs(cd tracker), and both getting literally 0 updates since they got added, its looks really bad

how am i supposed to trust the guys that, like i said, didnt even bother making you able track debuffs/dot timers for 20years now to suddenly make a good replacement/change stuff in general so its less needed just because they said they will do it? even more so with the recent added things that are all very often halfbacked at best

its a good goal in the end, but im legit scared of the reality being simply that we have to play for 1-2 years with half finished things that make the game worse until they finally made it somewhat OK

naive walrus
#

I wish Blizzard would introduce a new game mode called WeakAuras Encounter. It will be a set of dungeons and raids in which players must create custom-coded weak auras to execute the fight and then run it with some auto-player mode to see if auras execute a fight properly.
Finally, we don't need to play the game; the weak auras will do everything for us. We could even implement some AI to weak auras for this new type of encounter.
