Can you make me visit Sweden?
Nah that was correct
I am not swedish so no
You bait me there
was in this pvp guild back wrath,full degen pvp ganking alliance
everyone was from sweden
guild name
Aalst
Like 6% of us finns have Swedish as our mothertounge 
Snopp*
Living in Gent tho
yeah idk swedish i just knew what it meant 😂
we were so fukin cringy nerds
6% of Belgian speaking german
Yeah problem is that Swedish and finnish are the complete opposite
So I live in a country where I cant speak the most normal native tounge
XD
Isnt like Flamantic dialect the most spoken in Belgium?
french wannabe something something
Like Belgium, don't worry
I have to speak English with my coworker
Gembloux
Half of it, yes
Did study there
Also working at Namur so..
Ooh whats your work? I work at Florennes
Us
IT support for medical lab
Oooh nice !
U wawa uwa
Love the music @humble verge
Hello guys for s3 rogue ass or sub because I start rogue and I want main this for s3
Depends what you want to do
Principal raid
you asked in the sin channel
theres only one answer here
i see you asked in sub as well, youll get 2 diff answers
Just play your fav
Osef my fav haha I pref the best for my guild roster 🫡
Tuning comes and goes, whatever you like most
He is a french guys
Indeed
He belongs to the pirates
I wont recommend play outlaw, in raid, even at French people
Only if he doesnt like french fries
If he likes them, he can stay
I love how they are telling him to try outlaw in the sub channel 🤣
And you have problem with French guy’s dude ?
Answer my question
Yes i hate ppl speaking french
he should be thanking us he doesnt speak German 😉
Very true
Oui oui baguette
He responded here
No, wich level of contant
HC, MM, CE, WR?
CE
And when would you recommand only assa ? 🤔
CE but if you need to ask, that's you don't love the spec enough ahaha
I played whole last tier as assa
This tier as sub then assa
I'm an only ass rogue
how is anyone supposed to know the tuning in the future
like idk man
I'm trying to play sub but idk, if feel like i do horrendous dmg
those questions are always so weird
It feels *
- for 99,5% of players it literally never matters anyway
people just want to do mega damage, easily
Hmmm ask in sub, prolly someone got pov
Thanks
They trolled me
i think hes got the full vod on twitch maybe
Thanks, i'll see about that
OMG THAT DMG IS SO SICK OMG-> its a shity PTR YT short that has 40sec runtime

man, i wish my raidfights where 40seconds 
Yeah, sub triple dance all fight
everyone knows, a raidfights are only your initial burst and nothing else 
@icy shoal why did you spam 3 channels btw?
French guy
There's no need to spam assa/sub and then general chat with literally the same question
probs got the same answer all the time and didnt like it, so asked somewhere else
i answered in general
You said, pick your pref?
Yes
He doesnt like us telling him it wont matter in the long run
gotta love it
he wants a specific answer so its not on him if he performs poorly
I gave him a good answer...
idk, some people have this weird mindset where they think that a spec has this secret sauce that will suddenly make you do 50% more dmg if you play it
when like, game is balanced well enough that it never really matters unless you are in a top100 guild, and if you are in one of those you dont really ask in a class discord cus you just play what turns out to be best on a whim
I said go sub then assa depending on fights
I swear to god i dont understand why people can't just enjoy the game they are paying to play
sub / sin is easier to swap with than outlaw
Fuck you got me there
baguette farmer
I need to learn sub
I wanted to learn sub
So i get to be a better rogue
then i quit before i started
can you stop??
I'm not cool enough
Very funny to play
stop what
Imo
with that "omg lol french xd" bullshit when somebody asks a question
It was his behaviour
did i hurt your feelings
To be franc, i was trolling him bc i also speak french
Culture
do it with zac, who cares, but not with somebody that asks a question
And i said i hate ppl speaking french
Not a good one unfortunately
bullshit like that is why people say class discords are toxic btw
Yeah it happens way too much, meta chaser
I don't mean to act like volition isn't a major component, but even look at the community and how the giga nerds try to optimize; then you get the self glazers and the people who overly care about their competency and then the attitude carries over; there's a reason M+ gets a hilariously negative rep
Ofc you're gonna have people afraid of making mistakes and wanting to minmax everything lmao
You're totally right, thats the fun part
someone peed in Tyans cherrios this morning
i say since BfA: the "m+ community" is made from the League of Legends SoloQ players
Wrong month period
It's important to remember that the 4 other people in the M+ are stuck in there with you. You have the power to subject them to puns. Non-stop puns.

I played lol for a long time, chat am i cooked ?
yes
I came back at the beginning of TWW and haven't played since Cata / have never been a giga greasoid, so from where I sit and talk, that's just my perspective

I'll give my personal experience: I ONLY play assa, be it in a good state or bad (yes, i played assa even in S1 SL) but i have fun with this spec, so i min max because i HAVE fun with it.
Ooooh yes
It seems more convenient-ized / people fixate on efficiency to a fault
And spam UwU each time you die
Nah, you've gotta come up with a real good pun on how they died.
This will kill the group but you'll know they simply weren't resilient enough to withstand the punishment.
i feel the m+ rep is mostly from puggers interacting with other puggers
Yeah same; my min-maxing is a byproduct of enjoyment; my personal incompetency is bad, it's bad for me to be bad, the byproduct is when I git gud, I can help others because I actually learned the process
i mean yeha ofc
m+ is pretty neutral overall when you just play with your guild
I've had two bad pug experiences this season so it's very variable, too.
Man you are giving me ideas
Sometimes you've just gotta go c'est la vie, lumière s'éteint.. and walk out.
turns out, 5 people where all have a giant protagonist ego mixed togheter doesnt work out well
Imagine if the rest of the playerbase (and im not talking specifically about the top 1%) thought like this too
Depends what you call bad pug experiences
pet battles
World peace lmao
i think a lot of people oversell how "unfun" minmaxing is, it's the main thing that makes me enjoy games regardless of what percentile i am in that game
i don't get the opinion that playing to do well is just turbo unfun
toxic casuals are worse to deal with than toxic elitists
For me I'd classify it as actually toxic, slur-throwing, temper tantrums from someone. Like real "Wow this wasn't fun to witness"
If i dont minmax that means i aint enjoying myself
i'll take a meta whore 10/10 times over a casual andy who wants to grief because its his idea of fun to play a dogshit talent build with no utility or damage
I'd agree and also add someone who just wants a boost
i agree, i enjoy min maxing, BUT you won't see me reroll for that
Are you guys using KB in m+ builds?
No
Yeah - I don't think that's toxic. But you absolutely get a group where it's a real "oh my god, push your buttons" but that's.. just the game. Do your best, etc.
It's super frustrating though.
Is it a matter of comfort; I see how bleed performs, but I unironically like using kingsbane
Only rerolling between rogue specs
Like a real chad
Didn't touch M+ this season
I'm stuck with assassination for life
Its just better in lower keys
depeends imo
if the "10/10 meta whore" starts to be a dick about itt, its more shity aswell
like, im playing nightreign rn, people found out a "best route" in the game, and you sometimes have people that just spam ping that route 24/7 with no communication and rush it no matter what->die->leave the run and everything is fucked now, which is worse then somebody being shity at the game and just following you around
Yeah from what I read it's ease of use / comfort, unsure if it's stat advantage unless a skilled player can 'make the hybrid build work for them'
i enjoy optimizing most specs in this game so long as they have sufficient complexity
i kind of envy the one tricks at times though
sticking to something through the good and the bad is respectable
Sub 4 life 
If they're dogmatic / overly reliant on the meta, then their competency is within a narrow field. It's telling
I only recently played assa rogue, first time this tier in all the season
I'm just lazy
But i love it, and it'll stay my main
LOL
100%, esp if they can't read the room and adapt to the majority of people with them. Then they're the problem.
Tried havoc before, didnt like the move to do dmg build
the secret sauce is being kinda a perfectionist, so you HATE not being able to do 100% on a new spec so you dont even play it
cus thats how its for me 
I mean, i did like it, but idk, didnt feel satisfying in M+
i think most minmax oriented people have some degree of perfectionism, i just love the process of learning a new spec, its very addicting
That's why I hate rerolling
Thats why i cant play sub, if i aint good with it, i cant play it
What fucks with me is trying to keep my keybinds similar / uniform across multiple characters/specs
Rage inducing
Categorize
I do
F is for sprint/heroic leap/movement abilities
like, i tried out sub last week in raid and it was like
"ok, i understand the basics now and would neeed to play it for like 1-2 weeks, but i HATE being bottom dps, so i swap back to assa and call it" 
R is for dashes
Some abilities that are useful / comfortable need higher button economy
Idk why
Example: my movement is R, my burst is Q
H is for Health Potion.
H is for the HOMIES
Ctrl+H is for Healing stone
My dance is on non-modified Q, my deathmark is equally on non-modified Q, normally I'd put bane>mark and dance>blades, but I don't even take bane
I dont play sub because I feel inadequate and I hate that and the cycle repeats
and became a silly ass one trick
So like, I have some empty binds
That's why I reroll spec early in patch, so I'm not too far in the bottom
I don't want to fuck with my muscle memory either lol
Each tier, a new spec
We are all the same
I don't play sub because I don't want to have to have a bind for backstab just to use it during dance
It's laziness -.-
Macro on dance, GG wp
What like, dance and backstab at the same time or something lol
On same binding
Interesting
Now i'm curious about your warcraft logs @iron carbon 🤣
I wanna see how good you are on all 3 specs
I tried sub during a reclear recently and straight up just forgot this was a thing and never did it 
I don't even understand this iteration of sub; I played it during Cata when you had hemo and full access to the kit. I suppose it's just a lot of moving parts I didn't care to really learn until recently
Have to play with it more on a dummy or something
You can check the last 3 tiers
Oh wait I did swap race at tww
tbf, it IS very static
like, it looks more complicated then it really is
Yeah cant see beyond tww
Really?
sub rn is really just
use all cds togheter in a sequence that makes sense (aka every dps spec in the game)
and then outside of CDs its
use symbols togheter with Secret Tech
use shadowdance with secret tech
dont use shadowdance when cds are like ~35seconds away
thats kinda most of the basic gameplay
removing sub's ability to cast any cds outside of flag (i.e. big cds into backstab eviscerate for 75s straight) is only like a 25% dmg loss
Sec tec with cold blood always no?
legit just doing your big windows properly is 75% of the spec
NOT doing is is a minor minmax thing iirc
like 1% using CB manual vs just macro it
or something like that
Ok
I'm also overcomplicating it, I have an atrocious attention span and I just see a bunch of fucking heirogylphs; I can figure it out if I dedicate a night, I'm just lazy
The profile is a bit scuffed but I start playing seriously end of D£
With the second SecTec of the flag window
I like your name
Or you macro on it and you lose 1% dps
Do you recognise it ?
one of the first books I read when I got into reading
my guide is "play assa" 
but ye, open wowhead and learn the opener sequence
doing it right is the majority of your performance
Ok, i will try and learn it by heart
That's not how you say it in English
It's typically french
"know x by heart" is a common english expression, learn something by heart follows as something relatively normal
maybe that's the canadian french influence
Not what my English teacher told me
is your english teacher from the US
Uk
so we have one ESL person telling another ESL person how english works
and disagreeing with the native speaker
yep, its a french moment
The fuck?
this is a common english expression, ive used it since childhood
Okay then
sorry if you arent french, ive just been incorrectly corrected about english by the french the most compared to any other group
Who cares, if the main point is understood, doesn’t matter how it’s said.
in US we also use measurements by how we say the word fuck
I didnt really want someone to flail me
this is also the most critical thing to learn about english as a nonnative speaker
most words in a sentence are just fluff tbh
if you bark out a bare bones sentence we will know what you're saying
I have utmost respect for non native English speakers trying their hearts out because this shit I speak is probably so difficult to learn.
Try french
No thanks
Please, i promise we'll judge you meanly 😦
idk maybe its bc i took it in high school but french is just posh spanish, its not that bad
Just like french ppl do
French has no practical use in my life. A shame I took German for 4 years in high school and I work in a blue collar field where the primary language is Spanish
I spent 2 years learning spanish in high school and i live and work in an area where spanish would be very useful, and i remember exactly none of it
Its always shat
Its like asking how is the belgian gouvernement
Gouvernment ? You get it idk how to spell it
Government
Nice troll tho they dont have a government they only make waffles
And very good ones
Just saying what my English teacher told me
AMD is doing a giveaway for a nice PC that’s only available in France. I’d say that they’re doing pretty good.
Didn't disagree with anybody
And french fries, chocolate and beer
Damn now i miss our chocolate
I wanna get back home
True that
/s

@royal lantern is just defending French people

Not belgian
My gf ate lasagna today

When does rogue get good again btw
always has been good

You dont need it to be good
You need to be good
Not the same
if you dont like rogue rn idk if you'll ever like it, we've been building and spending combo points on envenom and upkeeping bleeds in some capacity for about 15 years
Oh right, I’ll just reroll. I’ve been flamed off the class.
Btw, I did check, it's, indeed, American, not British English
I’ve played rogue for the last 13 or so years. Just want something better than death stalker 🙂
fair enough, expressions can be different between regions
We dont deserve bettet than DS
We are in an endless loop of DS marks
Better*
But I didn't know it was commun in US
Glad to know
i wouldn't be surprised if we use it here in canada because of the french influence if it is that common in france
they use it a lot in the south bc they use "heart" or "my heart" in a lot of expressions
like when i think of the phrase i imagine a southern woman saying it bh
DS marks can sugma
im half portuguese
Balls
you can even ask Candice
ronaldo is from the same island that my portuguese family name is from
VAMOS CARALHO
SIGAAAAAAAAAA
there's a picture of "the island" downstairs in my home 
That's actually cool, good to know i have a half brother in you Nooj
And they find this channel
Sad he's trashtalking us

I mean
Nice Portuguese is Royal, bad Portuguese is Nooj
Is he doing it well or does he need to min max other areas?
They are always trashtalking
It's a rogue behaviour i guess

Yup, I agree with that
I thought Ronaldo was Italian
Really should just make outlaw their own class and give us a new spec.
ranged rogue spec
Rogue healing that boils down to throwing Brann health pots
And calls other players slurs for not picking them up
didn't talent into iron stomach 
Talents from live to PTR / 11.2 remain the same for sub? can't find anything that says otherwise
So, here is ass rogue, we dont really know about sub
What sim setting we use for m+ simming? Cant seem to find anything in pins sorry
dungeonslice
@normal mist Thanks!
😮
my fam is from the azores but the name is medeiros so prob originally from madeira
I'm from the continent
i cant time 13sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
i hate pugs
Its not a good time to pug
Oh i know lmao
remain at 12s
All the good players are on PTR
and go enjoy life
it's never a good time to pug
i need one more 13 for 3k
fuck
Come carry me
Like in what world should i be above a boomkin or a retri in overall in a priory 13 man
in a bad world
pressing starfall hard
is this a sale
At this point i would do anything just for a single 13 lol
why not run your key?
at least then you can choose your own people and have some better chance of avoiding carries
damn
where i've been going from 13 fails to 12's upgrading again to 13/14;s and failing again
rinse and repeat
where the friendos at
They all want to play with my main tank but I’m swapping to rogue for next tier
Fake friends honestly Sadge
fr
Nah that's cool bro thanks tho!
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:
/cast Shiv
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
Assassination uses no other macro aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket
That would make sense 😂
I wish 💀
Have you guys seen the new macro
With the xal feet in the top of your screen 😄

It's me or the average level to play is fucking low?
At his point of the season, you meet a lot of trash player in 16-17
maybe not trash but not good
i mean the last 16 i did the top dps was 2.4 mil in a top
0 deaths you need to be doing 18-19s or you wont really find anyone
Not only about death
cant decide wich spec to go on high keys
that boomy was dog shit
assa or outlaw idk
whichever youre more comfortable on
which do you do the highest dps on
im honest feels all the same
yup 😄
law is nice for the hooks, but sin has that ability to port behind your target
I don't think that's an argument
nah, theyre very close. lower keys id say outlaw. higher maybe sin. just depends on the skill of your healer. sweethen is right if you need to be tankier
another question, i have 6 coins i can buy Pyrotechnic Needle-Dropper or Crowd Favorite on Myth should i get these? or what is the better combo ?
i could go 2x favor
so go craft better?
Unless you already got you MM trinkets
And your MM ring
What level of content you do?
+16
Why don't you sim?
most of my chars are kinda Maxxed but now im at ma rogue
And don't buy off hand weapon
seems like rogue is more complicated because of weapon combs etc
Boarf, no
on another classes i just get 2 hand wwep
so ima go and craft me a sword and a dagg
its their a big diff between a sword axe etc as main hand?
no
literally no difference
and do i need a dagg or can i just go with whatever comb i like
dagger makes it so you can play assa/sub
with one handed weapon you're locked to outlaw
I assume you don't do 16 with your rogue atm ^^
ops wrong one
No, you didn't
You just speaking about your stuff
People really needs to understand we don't read their mind and we are not supposed to guess what they mean
But I see why you asking it now. You doing 16 on your others char and you start playing the rogue.
dont craft a dagger for outlaw
if this alt is for keys
we use cudgel OH for all non boss packs in m+
So, my advice would be : Craft a one-hand, craft a dagger, loot another dagger. So you can play the 3 specs
As I mentioned earlier, "it seems like Rogue is more complicated because of the combs"
What I meant by that is that I'm currently in the process of gearing up my Rogue. I've always enjoyed playing Rogue in the past, but before I really dive in, I want to gather as much info and as many tips as possible so I can get the most out of it in the long run.
fair, just read all the guides, pins and faqs
If you just wanna play outlaw, craft a one-hand, that's it
And yes, at this moment, I understood you were a rogue noob
Not an offensive "noob" btw, just you're new in class
The other classes feel kind of burned out, especially now that I've already achieved most things with them. The Rogue has been on my mind for a while now
yy ik
You should just find the gameplay you pref btw. Sin and Outlaw are ahead in M+, Sub and Sin will generally be better in raid
why is sub better for raid? i don't play it so i don't know much about it
Not uptime dependant, flexible CD
Great Burst so can down adds quickly / Take advantage of damages buff
nice i guess i should probably learn it
Once you got the execution in fingers and the CD timing, that's pretty simple
Don't worry bud, I did deplete 20 keys in a row I think
alr bud, i dont like CD trinkets, i usually use non cd trinkets whats the best comb on outlaw with non cd? can i go with pacemaker and scroll ?
this is the assa channel
o.c alr
Pacemaker and wax whistle probably best passive trinks
Yep
Omfg, I timed a key
Jesus
heuhh 3k
huge
we did it
GG homie, pog
Thank you brudda ❤️
You can now play the game
Bravo le sang
Waiting till my new guild kills gallywix on mythic this week and i can join on reclears
and need 140 more gilded and then i'm done basically 😄

Did you do your KB windows right / the target lived the full KB?
the devious new season on the horizon:
yeah i know brudda. but gotta be max IL for next season
Hey guys, with how much Vers should we be rolling?
Hey! I've been playing assa for a week now and I'm doing good on AoE but I'm struggling in ST because of the low energy regeneration. In some situations I find myself with low energy and literally just AA for like 5-10s. Is it normal to have this kind of downtime? I'm playing standard m+ build with no improved garrote/master assassin.
Since stuff hurts on 15s, so I was wondering if there is specific % of vers to aim for
Welcome to playing sin rogue!
there isnt
use feint
no just press feint
!design
Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. As a burst spec our damage is mainly loaded into Deathmark/Shiv and massive Envenoms through stacking multiple nature damage buffs such as Lingering Darkness, Shiv, Darkest Night, Amplifying Poison, and more. This comes with the natural downside of our damage suffering outside of these windows, in part due to the designed lack of energy slowing us down.
Because of this, there is only one minor (0.3%) min-max with energy, which is pooling 3-4 seconds into an upcoming Kingsbane. Ideally this would put you at around 50-60% energy before you enter your Kingsbane, which is more than enough energy alongside thistle tea. Outside of that, spam Envenom and just accept that you will run out of energy. There is nothing you can do to not run out of energy. Playing around Envenom uptime also is not relevant anymore, as Twist the knife allows for two stacks at a time, which reduces wasted uptime dramatically. Without twist the knife, wasting uptime is unavoidable.
and use elusiveness instead of cheat
Did, didn't help double jump in Rookery and shat my pants
thats the healers job
Guess I'll have to manage my cds better since there is no other way
so its something you're used to hahaha I thought it was just skill issue 😦 thank you
Thanks for the info tho
You're welcome homies
just wait until you roll into a trash pack and this happens
Nothing makes you feel warm and fuzzy like rolling up on a pack of 5 with 0 energy.....
And before you can get to 50% energy the Pally and Mage have killed them
ahhaha I was worried, thank you for the answers lads
kinda surprised they havent reworked this
Rogue hasn't had a rework since Shadowlands.
i dont know if this is a unpopular opinion but i feel like pressing defensives should not cost energy like CV and Feint
“Rework” is a spectrum though, people will always argue over how many changes constitute one
the only people that argue about it only use it to their own class advantage
surely we can get all 12 for signet mythic
I believe in you
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
qeustion:
why does the opener tells us to mut 2 times after rupture when after rupture i get 3 combo points immediatly and 1 mut always puts me at 5+ combo points
So. non crit rupture doenst give CP?
and if I just put a single mutilate, people would ask me why the guide says to mut 1 time when they don't get to 5
well it's bone spike that's giving you cp
Understandable thanks!
in 1 target, bone spike is 1cp + 1cp for being on a target
depending on when it gives the cp, that could mean either 1 or 2
but if im full CP i can just skip the second mut right
good.
you don't generate if you're at 5
yeah because of waste right?
yes
Thanks brudda
Hey Whispyr, how do I read the KB line?
wdym
2,42 is Average damage per tick ?
And 11.97 is whoel duration?
Or I'm cooked
Maybe a bigger screenshot would put more context
The parenthesis is the dot
The regular number is the hit itself
So average cast of 2.4 on the initial hit, 11.97 on the dot
No, details smashes everything together
On last key
3.3m crit seems reasonable
What’s it say your max crit was on logs? Is it different
Lemme find this
Hm
Not same logs, I was just comapring
Oh
I'm uploading the key rn
3.357 M
Correct
That's a bit sad no, that a 1 min cd just do 0 damages?
Makes me sad 😦
I start skipping it sometimes
Pref miss a cast than delay DM for 20 sec
Yes but I like big Envenoms

I'm sure we can cook something without KB and doing big E
wish granted - kingsbane is now a 10 second channel
hmmmmmmm feels like a lot of SD damage in a 12 cb 🤨
UwU
I've been testing some of my openers like 10 times and there is so much variance in damage the opener is doing why is that?
Crit
Stop vanishing to refresh bleeds as soon as mobs get low then
Mainly KB and envenom during DM
had a 13 million KB in the opener POGGGGGG
That's big
Yah, but I got whole raid buff (Without hunter) + Lust
But yeah, it beats the sim
I'm dumb
It was 20.7M
thats very huge actually lol
but that's with raid buffs right?
the opener i did was just on a dummy lol
yeahj
I did some highroll on my opener on this fight
I mean the spreadsheet nowadays is just "do m+"
Its not like in bfa when there was actual stuff you needed to do
we getting signet myth tmr
yeah but if you do 9 hours of rep grinding and do a side quest in northrend during this micro-holiday on the summer solstice then you have 200 valorstones and 30 weathered crests that NO ONE ELSE WILL HAVE
Ye and by doing all the dailies everyday i get the infinite augment rune 5 days before everybody just doing the weeklies
Massive gains
think about how much more better you will be when you can raise your little sweaty elitist nose at the casuals that don't have 200 valor stones on raid release
ok so, do i even bother hoping for gear in vault - or do i just craft like boots and ring 🤨
the power you wield
Well i literally just tossed 3 of those that ive had since s2 start
and havent needed 
I simply have a stack of like 400 wax that can be exchanged for valorstones if I don't forget they exist or even need valorstones at some point
yeah valorstone are finally not an issue anymore since this season
maybe if you upgrade 4 items at the same time and one is a weapon and you have 0 backups saved
not really a rogue problem since we craft wep anyways
for me its the same as eleem, still have like 8 valor tokens in my bag and they just never get used
i'm permacapped on valor
i've also had nothing to do with gilded on my main for a long time
it would be cool if i could trade them for consumables or something
i think valorstones in general just hsouldnt exist
we are already capped by crests to begin with
why tf do valorstones exist
its just blizz' way of saying to the players "fuck you thats why"
yeah it is a bit weird
making valorstones warbound was just blizz's way of saying "fuck you thats why" round 2
because they could have just made it not exist
they like half admitted the problem but in classic blizz fashion refuse to actually fix it
which is still efven more stupid because valorstones are still capped to 2k atm
which alot goes to waste at this point in the season
pretty sure most of us who do even a little bit of pve have like 1k+ or 2k+ gilded crests at this point

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
imagine if they bother to UNCAP crests next tier
at the start
surely they wont
That would be ass
degeneracy will abound
yeah no fuck that
crest cap is a good thing
valorstones are just an arbitrary extra currency we dont need
how will they make sure we go from 2000 to 0 when we finally have things worth upgrading
surely they wouldnt RWF in less than a week
i honestly hope they do, shit is a snooze fest anyway
they will definitely cap crests
its the timegate within after all
it also stops people from smashing it all out and burning themselves out week 1
crest cap is absolutely there to save people from themselves
What is the talent command?
which one
yeah i was gonna ask
anyone have a good bleed build for mythic +
the wowhead one
its all u need
could always craft one
or do you mean a 684 to replace your crafted
Yeah but in the sims it doesnt seems like its a gain
im jealous of everyone who has 684 mythic offpieces
my characters are all mythic mainpieces and crafted offpieces
I still use the cyrce one
iirc a heroic jastor and a crafted or mythic ring is what most people will end the season with
it outscales having a cyrce circlet by a bit
If i dont get it today i'll craft one
!rik
Rik Reverb Barrels (and similar spread cleave in raid)
- Not your problem.
- Assassination is the worst target swapping spec in the game, and we have no tools available to deal with the situation of priority spread cleave. Caustic can reach sometimes but similar to fire mage, the boss needs to be on top of the adds, causing caustic to often be out of range.
- If you're truly hellbent on swapping to barrels, hold your nearest darkest night and just slam a darkest night envenom into them and pray. If you're quick enough you can also pool combo points/energy and cast a rupture on a barrel to try and caustic off of them. This still will not do good barrel damage, again, the spec is doomed for it
- Another possible option would be talenting into Crimson Tempest by untalenting Bone Spike and Doomblade. This CAN TECHNICALLY provide a bit of barrel damage, but the spawns need to be immaculate and any difficult spawns will just result in no barrel damage again.
With all that, the best advice we have for swapping barrels: - Swap to Subtlety.

ideally you prob want 660 or so
670 for jujmping right into mythics next season
instead of having to gaer
i think if youre about 670-680 you can skip the etnire champion track gear and try fish for heroic pieces next season
it's so easy to gear up right now and what else is there to even do
maybe it would be easier to just ask whatever your question is instead of guessing commands
what are you looking for friend
when you do the ! like for rik but for gallywix
we dont have one for gally
okay ty
hit boss, spatter adds, look at lorrgs to see where we hold cds a bit
ty
tell that to my friend that just spammed 8x +10 each week on 6 characters for almost 2.5 months
one of my guildies did like, 160 keys first week this tier 
now imagine that without crest cap
8 vault keys a week + giga overdrive turbo degen gaming for crests
ight bet im sitting on like 300 gilded crests
getting gilded from pvp has been nice
ooh nice
yeah in my experience its just ideal to catalyst any hero piece gears you can find in dungeons on the opening weeks
then prayge on the welfare vault to give you good mythic pieces
i believe we will be wanting to craft and embellish probably bracers and ring maybe
or bracer and offhand weapon
Question, i'm doing 11-13s right now and I'm wondering if it is worth it to run tempest for cleave
I saw that the high end of keys right now, rogues are running more single target with cleave as opposed to lots of aoe cleave.
ct one of the single most overtuned abilities in the game and still looking for ways to drop it
For now keep it lol?
if you load into a key without ct the ghost of whispyr shows up and bricks your pc
Cleave is bad in keys that low
what should I be running for that range? My goal is to hit 3k
Mind linking your talents?
ct does so much fuckin dam bro
are they going to nerf us back?
huh?
why would they nerf us after just buffing us kek
12s is just animal territory rn
because that's what blizz does xD
what key level?
only 12
ah
!builds
Bleed vs Hybrid vs Cleave/FI builds
Broad rules and Section in Guide:
- If you have to ask, you should play bleed
- 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.
Morning fellow poison mastah
The pattern was they nerfed us 2 weeks into season. Think it happened 3 times in a row lol
I'm back boys


not that i necessarily think removing the crest cap is a good idea, but you already omegaspam keys week1/2 and omega overcap crests gearing
farming hero pieces takes a lot of keys
would let you stop doing keys for crests earlier
(and would be omega degen)
I can't really remember them nerfing us in a while, there was a caustic nerf in season 1 because of ovi'nax, and they nerfed kingsbane in amirdrassil, but generally I feel the pattern is weak in PTR -> everyone dooming that it's so over -> buffed -> spec is upper third -> everyone dooming that we're getting nerfed
last time I checked the guild that won the race played assa on the hardest boss in the raid!

The reason people doom is it happened in BFA, Shadowlands, and Dragonflight.
Ur right we didnt get the huge nerf this expansion.
What
i play the class
not the spec
sub from sl s3 to df s2 made me want to stab my eyes out with a rusty fork
we need reasons to doom! proceed to flip a coin - dammit cant doom
i mean sin design baseline is fine
its just rogue hero talents are dogshit
sub would probably be fine if that spec didnt have 20 bugs in any given tier
and outlaw mains need jesus
shadowlands was notoriously the expansion where sub was crushing for all 3 tiers, what? assa had to get 8 buffs totaling over 30% in nathria just to be average, I didn't even bother playing assa at all during sanctum because frost shards were too volatile and sub was so much stronger with edge of night, in sepulcher it was another sub tier. Assa in bfa got 2 major nerfs cause of shrouded and echoing blades, but it was played mostly because of sub being so shit
iirc the auras assa had to get in Nathria
summed up to either 36% or 42%
since expansion launch
Assa at start of sl x)
yeah it was insane
it was a sub tier until venthyr and necro got reworked
though imo outlaw was better post rework
for sire/slg
frankly I think shadowlands might be the bleakest time for assa in modern wow
you thought an assa player was good in sanctum until you realized
he got pi
and kindred
I can't remember overall a worse set of assa tiers since like, wod
hated SoD and Sepulcher assa tho
outside of CN it was ok
and kihra invalidated that log 5 months after
it just no reason for rwf to play assa in sepulcher where you had daggers from sylv
It was a 99 because our rat shaman
and sod was 1 week race before sets got rebalanced
decided to play ele
yeah but "it was ok" is very sad for this spec generally
and cuck me out of windfury
I don't think people realize how highly tuned assa is nearly always
i think the most fun ive had on Assa was Legion antorus, or Arberrus farm
antorus you monster
i really enjoyed the Sepsis build for some reason
antorus was pb slot machine
you were the guy proccing poison bomb in shoulder window werent you
ngl i played sub on farm because we got ce before assa got buffed
and i was like cba dealing with pb
wasnt assa like really good on argus
but like arberrus farm, sepsis build just clicked for me
i was just spitting out rank 1s
didnt mythic phase start at like 50%
yeah im not trusting to press dfa
with some people i raided with
i also lost a fel relic lootcouncil
to a lock who still died to first cone after 300 pulls
oh yeah argus was one of those bosses that my guild inted after smurfing on aggramar
wasnt many of those in last 4 xpacs
idk i get weirdly salty when lootcouncil gives someone an item over me when i think that player sucks
idrc if the player they give it to is good
my guild simply ints 2 bosses in a row
😎
aggramar was the boss to check
if you lob your dk players
for not knowing how to grip
aggramar dk grip was a raid buff
yeah idk they literally cried so hard
our is only losing to the bugged hunter stuff
I had a dk dps player who complained about deathbringer rng
like every 2 days
holy fuck play unholy if you're gonna complain that much
I have a frost dk ready to play and have fun tbh
When i dont want to play my ass rogue
meh i alt dh
...terrible rng to have 2 classes by same dev
Rogue dev also do dh ? Or dk?
Damn you aint lucky man

Before maining rogue i was maining dh, now i know why the change are the same lol
i mean wounded quarry is just a better dsm
havoc's tierset this season was turbo ass though
And on S3 ?
its really good in s3 on ptr
me when i just; 3,3k main on 2nd rogue alt :3 need crests :3 in que
bro 2 rogues is self harm
EU or US?
I pray to god that they shoot and burries dsm behind the barn.
I'd love to help then
is the third outlaw
I got crest to farm on my frost dk
my alts in a weird spot
cause i got hella crit mastery luck lol
condolences
200 gilded nothing to upgrade
