like last half of it was amazing
What was the best expac in your opinion try
I enjoyed legion because I got crit leggo as my first legendary UL
I've played 4 (including tww)
but only like
2 properly
So i don't rlly have a choice
it was my 2nd last
hard to say cus many have their strong and weak parts
overall i THINK BfA? the raids where just all good
so imma politely have to ask you to fuck off
fellow sephuz + feint pants enjoyer?
If I recall correctly it was added in the start(?)
But again it was way too long ago to remember

But yea my fav is DF but i rlly don't have a choice
Started like, on the last day of legion
through the entierty of BFA i barely had a functioning brain
Same with Sl tbh
and it was only like, mid DF i started thinking like a normal human being
So the only one i experianced that much was DF
even still, i only do like
AoTC and a tiny bit of mythic raiding
and i try and push M+ but it's mainly low rio pugging
brain still barely functioning arent you like 12?
for the Outlaw players in this chat: 12 is what you consider a "boomer"
Outlaw was the first spec i tried playing aswell
so it checks out
I think i was 14 or so when i started acc

we could step the frontal as well iirc
but its been some years
and im getting older
We're getting wiser
What dungeon/boss you two talking about?
the FH parrot boss
Sharkbait?
I enjoyed legion cos I got boots and wrists as my first legendary
and then when they released crit shoulders with NH
I got those first week
just get them idk what to say
most based
That's tryan
Legion owned and I stopped playing on KJ prog
Holy shit try is in wow???
I got the feint healing ones as my first 
Peak
you had to tank him a certain way to bait all poops on your ranged, and you had to LoS his 0.5 sec 1 shot cast
which was a frontal cone on 1 player
dog shit system wasn't dog shit for me 
Ah that sounds silly
Also
I find it funny how many people just ask what specs going to be the best next season
Like
We will find out when the expac comes out
Ptr isn't always accurate
Based
outside of season 1 you didn't play anythin but outlaw unless you were Seli
ive played sin as well but only hsing out coz i had rly fat gear on last season,basicly decked out
last bosses on keys etc
big dam
(reading that while on the Toilette)
poo?
Proof?
Send ||dudes||
also last season sin was very big with the snapshot tech,certain keys in terms of dmg might have been better than outlaw(Like ML or Sethralis-blowing up adds etc)
i was actually following Seli alot back then,was hanging around on his stream alot
pretty fun times
bigtime m+ pusher seli
he even quit last season

assa didn't live
can you blame him
sin was very strong ST,not mage strong but did alot of dmg
more than the pirate
but u needed haste gear for exsang tech
yeah around there
so you just played "proctect the mage" comp
if you are a real Seli OG then what was is twitch handle in BFA? 
jsut ask him if i was around,u dont need baits like this
he knows i was there
pretty much since legion and until bfa i watched seli all the time
and a bit in shadowlands in sofo
funniest times crab boss progress
cant believe u dont remember
yeah but were you a varas fan back in bfa?
The true OG
truth is im getting old,braincpu not that strong anymore
It gets worse if you consider her walking barefoot and the circumstances in WoW dont scream "I shower often"

Thats the spice
Im just teasing puma
All the better
and that its literally a possesed corpse
you don't season your meat?
Puma sweating reading this

im at work you cant do this to me rn
With or without cheese?
Depends on if he prefers it that way or with chocolate dip
If you know what I mean
can someone give me a reason why signet is ran over hoc, it looks like hoc gives more stat
Because more people have access to Signet or had access earlier
They are pretty close to eachother
Signet has more duration
I personally run funhouse lens so i can easily fit inside a mailbox

Im glad m cats dont do that they lick hands and forheads
Well behaved cats
What about armpit?
!macro
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
Dont speak about it
Or Whispyr will go crazy again
Insult your whole family for 3 generation
And alt+f4 the discord
is it possible to have for example a mouseover garrote macro that also works on current target?
i would think so
[@mouseover] garrote; garrote
yeah
something simpler probably works also yeah but this just happens to be what I have 
Or that, not in game
#showtooltip Garrote
/cast [target=mouseover,exists,harm,nodead][harm,nodead]Garrote
tyvm
No one asked and it isn't a big deal
You'll have tea whenever you need it
except i don’t, because i spam mutilate like a noob and waste my mastery buff outside of cooldowns

use that and ur teas that could get auto-cast will be on cd 
how
kb is 1min
dm is 2min
tea is 1min
you literally always have it with your cds

i would if i didn’t burn it outside of cooldowns by going too low on energy, right
???
mate sorry, but read what i said again
fight starts
you use cds + tea
1min mater, you use kb and get tea back
1min later, you use all cds and get tea back
you literally CANT have no charge for it
i guess that’s true for one charge, yeah
ideally i’d have two to cover dm, right?
You get loads of energy from DM anyhow
and if it’s just for energy and the mastery doesn’t matter, then it seems like kind of a waste to burn a charge immediately with shiv when i’m likely at high energy anyway
but that macro does make it easy to manage. i’ll give it a try
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
you allready kinda used up some energy at that point so you dont waste energy gained from tea, and it will automatically line up for the rest of the fight
like, the mastery part never mattered
if we had infinite energy, we would not play tea
it was always about the energy
the mastery may not be good enough on its own, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it doesn’t matter
and the entire thing why the auto usage doesnt matter is because of 2 reasons:
1, it always lines up with your CDs by default anyway
2, if you auto proc it, it means you where low on energy and now have energy again to use abilitys, and using abilitys is always more dmg then NOT using abilitys
does the auto usage feel kinda bad? yes sure, i agree and think it should be a choice node
but it literally doesnt matter
100% minmaxed Tea usage with never letting it autocast at all, and not even macroing tea and just letting the game autoconsume it all the time is a 0,3% difference lol
if that’s true, then i don’t feel so bad lol
and macro tea with shiv is allready near 100% minmaxed gameplay
No because you get it running. Having stuff on CD instead of up is the first rule of actually using CDs in WoW
^ that aswell
like, if you want a really simple reason why the energy is important and not the mastery
whats more dmg, using tea so you get 8% more dmg on 1 or 2 envenoms
or getting a additonal envenom out
(which has the 8% buff aswell then)
no?
There's a slight change
im only get cuastic spatter when i came out of invis for soem seconds
On the bosses with bigger hitboxes the range gets tweaked to include bits around the rogue
oh
.it wasnt liek that in seaosn 1
huh
are you mixing up talents
Most definitely
i dont think so xD
spatter is the poison cleave you apply on a target
yeha iknow
Spatter has nothing to do with stealth
but it has nothing to do with stealth?
And you dont get it either
you apply spatter by using mutilate or ambush on a enemy that has rupture
What are cds?
Cute dogs (or dudes)
see its off
you mutilate again?
y
Yeah, its a 10 second buff
its a short duration debuff ON YOUR TARGET
Gotta muti again
not a buff on yourself
yeap after that if i dodnt be in invis i dont get that buff anymore

i was main rogue in season 1
Whispyr do it
or @spice surge idk
afetr this i use everything
one of you
Kinda surprised meownar doesnt pop up fast
ping him
No he always does things to me
@shrewd night meow, somebody sending shady links

so its a bug or im missing something? xD
well, caustic spatter has 3 requirments
have weapon poisons active
have rupture on your target
use mutilate/ambush
thats it
Just make sure deadly poison is on the target, rupture is on the target, press mut/ambush
and if im doing all fo that and it didnt apply the caustic spaatter on target ?
ofc
Ignore the little weakaura picture you are sending a pic of and look at the debuffs. If the debuff and weakaura don't line up correctly then fix the weakaura.
As for logging target dummies generally the same way you log everything else
okk i got a log let me uplaod
check this
caustic spatter is on only for 9 sec
after that i dont ahve it at all
You casted mutilate once in that time
all my buffs are up i ahve poisona nd i did mutilate
Unless I'm misreading something
You didnt mutilate in that log after the first apply
oh let me do another log i think i turn the log so fast xD
Like, you're not mutilating, you poisoned knifed twice but that won't apply spatter
ahahhaha
i got it
my levels did changed after invis
my mutilate is on 3 keybind in invis and it get changed after invis
xDDD
Well, at least its fixed now which is the main thing
haha yeah ty ❤️
i was liek wtf why im only egt cuASTIC SPATTER in invis is there anythign changed after seaosn1 xD
The answer is your keybinds 😄
xD yeah
xD i ahve it on V
Literally onlu press it once on opener
i use Q for stealth xD
anyway what is best choise for trinekt rn Mythic signet or hero/myth hosue of cards?
since the CDs not line with house of card i think signet is better right?
or am i wrong?
Mythic signet is better the hero hoc but its pretty much the same then myth hoc.
So if you dont have access to mythic version of hoc you go for signet otherwise its pretty w/e if you not also play sub
are y'all macroing House of Cards to Kingsbane or Deathmark or have it on a separate bind to pop with Kingsbane in DM windows?
I'm thinking best use case is always on the kingsbane during Deathmark. I'm not sure there is a high possibility to miss House of Cards active for the last kingsbane tick if popping it with Deathmark in the global before Kingsbane
Macro to Dm and forget
^
Damn things get freaky here in the middle of the night
Theres even some xalatoes flying around
yeah this is the freakiest channel in the server
Most calm and normal discord channel in the world
doesnt that result in often missing house of cards active buff on last kingsbane tick?
pressing dm=>15 secs hoc buff and 1 sec gcd=>kingsbane and just in a perfect queue you have the hoc buff for last kingsbane tick?
well KB is fully stacked super fast during DM anyways, and it just isnt worth thinking about in reality
Hi, what poisions should I use?
!poison
You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:
Lethals:
- Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
Non-Lethals: - Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB
Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used
but I mean I guess u can do whatever u want but 99% of people just macro HoC to DM and forget about it
also u shiv before u KB
it does such shit dmg anyways that its not even worth concerning about a single tick doing 2x dmg or not
appreciate it guys thank you
No problem

who else up consuming rogue misinformation
come for the misinformation, stay for the dooming
Anything new happened?
just dorki talking about rogue, its either him not understanding it at all or his chat
if i learned something in over a decade
its that people that dont actively play rogue have the loudest opinions on it without understanding even its basics
so true
Oh ... :/
chat said sin rogue is either all ST or all AOE and theres no inbetween
i mean, thats kinda true in m+?
you will either do high consistent aoe but low boss dmg, or you do good boss dmg but pay for it with your consistent aoe and need big targets for it now
In the induction build in raid is there a use for vanish? to apply DS mark if needed?
reset boss on a wipe to not lose your augment rune

yeah incase you lose mark for whatever reason, can also use it on for example Cauldron to swap target
i was streaming to my friends. and this old rogue main when he played in legion he said to my other friends. That i was playing wrong ( i was) why is he not using vanish for garrotes. not knowing you use vanish for that in the ST build
and just wanted to make sure 😄
yeah u only vanish for garrote if u run improved garrote and lockenstock is like the only fight where u maybe do that but even then u can just stick with viscious venomns there aswell
so what's up with all those little vers buffs? they gonna make a difference at all?
wdym little vers buffs
https://puu.sh/KxjGT/455a96b6e0.mp4 maybe my gpu is dying
maybe, read it again
its some azerite powers that got affected by buffs and the list is just datamining
are you using azerite gear

ouch
happens sometimes
they adjust some stuff and at the same time some azerite powers get affected aswell and datamining scraps it up
when like
its nothing
Happens everytime they aura buff it, because theyve tied those azerite powers to the aura buff
Anyone willing to answer some potentially stupid questions about improved garrote in M+?
Let's find out if I am one: I noticed imp garrote was a suggested talent in most of the guides but in current higher keys rogues don't seem to use it. Is this just a by product of fully diving into the funnel playstyle of caustic splatter, or spreading rupture with bone spikes is just an easier and faster way to get venomous wounds benefit?
!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.
" Is this just a by product of fully diving into the funnel playstyle of caustic splatter"
This allows them to also play more ST builds which they need in their 20's
Thanks
i think i know the answer, but just to confirm, when gallywix first sends out that aoe suppression attack, do you guys stick to him or do you run to the next set of adds?
evasion doesnt block it right?
no
but you can just run out of melee range and feint, and it will only do like 50% hp
the dmg dropoff is kinda big, if you are not in melee range, feint lets you survive it
awesome thanks friend!
Is assa single target gonna be just as (relatively) bad in s3? (Not sure about set bonuses etc.)
i could be severely wrong, but it doesnt seem likes its gonna be great
Trying to decide whether to play assasination or outlaw next season. Mainly do m+ and heroic raiding (no myth) but I still like seeing big numbers go BRRRRR.
i doubt outlaw would be the choice you should make if you want big numbers go brrrr
spec doesnt have cooldowns
looks like it may only been driver issues
if you do m+ and hc raiding it really does not matter what you play.
Play whatever you enjoy the most
Big overall numbers tho
When it became a thing we spammed the channels so much
They love me
No assa ptr notes for weeks got us doing the Pedro chain til fuu had to put his foot down
i remember, i was there too xD
Good times
More Pedro means more DPS clearly
I had to get rid of the bloodlust weak aura. The first raid of tww it scared the shit outta me and I couldn’t see past the raccoon to do mechanics
More Pedro’s more fun
"kyveza why did you become Pedro"
POGGERS
so we got 8% and then an extra whatever this pile of buffs is? LOL
9% to CT is a big hit in m+ no?
right?
thats crazy
idk
m+ is prob cooked
idk what the goals of these changes were
but raid is looking juicy
make us rank 1 dps so we get nerfed really fast
man sin big nerf...our aoe wasn't even good ...
To take the power out of CT ST likely
odd to nerf out AOE lol
dartboard sad buff some bleeds, buff envenom, nerf CT, ignore hero talents
god bless the dartboard
to compensate for CT nerfs
surely aoe isn't completely cooked
wdym got cooked
maybe even less
It's a buff to hybrid builds no?
tbf, its kinda reasonable cus CT is kinda overtuned
that thing does so much dmg for a single button press
dude
rare skip W moment
this is like
You changed
Hybrid build is back frfr
i mean u needed the st gains so ct nerf is good
only for pure st
Your build been crazy
ur aoe was already good
Skip has always been based
garrote is only good for its buff

that it buffs you
with lethal dose
nothing else
in aoe
it's dmg is far too low for it to be relevant even if its a 13%
somewhat higher
idk its probably 5% st buff
Great
if i had to guess
number go up
truth nuke
lets fgucking go
did we get new buffs?
Shadowlands skip would never
We got something
Buff ST, nerf aoe
Buddy I saw you in df Ik you’re a bottom
what that mean
But also very based evolution proud of you king
It’s a play on the word sub
But also the raz sectech clip is something I still pull up every few months
mate, the last 5 tiers where a sub tier 

Peak content 
I wonder if this makes bleed worse than hybrid by any significant amount
wrong

we gotta sandbang more guys.
Maybe no more ct in ST
jesus they shot the boomkin tierset in the head, based af
Good
fuck moonkins
🙈
idk raid buff all is good
big changes
thnx
CT worth it for ST buffs
Single target going up it seems
Hoping EC is buffed
I don't know what EC means
I mean for most people playing common bleed builds
the other buffs probably balance out
guys who the fuck is buffing arcane mage
Sin st is sky rocketing
also like
more envenom/garrote/rupture dmg is also more aoe
CT was waaaay to much for a single button press
I feel like only the cleave build might take a slight hit?
for a long time
might
Yeah Assa AoE was already really good, even if CT is nerfed the other buffs should make it a fairly minor nerf
CT shoulda been buffed by 9%
ST dmg go up i like
nah buff CT any more
need more buffs
They shoulda buffed KB by 15%
buff kb by 100% but make it parryable
Make KB a real cooldown again
do you take the risk
get out the kitchen

I would take the risk
ROGUE S TIER ? POG
are there even any bosses we take CT for in raid next patch?
guys can we stop promoting that rogue is good now. we gotta sandbag for more buffs
Elune's Chosen.
They nerfed the fuck out of KotG
that was the only one i could think of
yeah usually you just spatter if you cleave in raid
doubt theres gunna be anything like brood
nah the only add fight is perfect for spatter
type shit
no high uptime AoE fights from what I tested
What does this mean for Bleed Build in M+?
we wont know until whispyr the unhinged makes a pin
nothing is true until theres a pin
as far as we know, these were nerfs and now we're below aug
Means we have to go to the island
true
we should get slowmode tbh
Pretty sure for bleed build it doesnt change much
maybe ct is no longer like 20% of your overall
at the end
guys someone ask chat gpt what do these changes mean
we must know what the machine says
@balmy condor Where new pins
do the thing theoryjak
?
no
CT dmg didnt change from live
it'll stay the same in next tier
same dmg
outlaw 10% is that mega?
all other bleeds got buffed
is that gone or still in/
coping. its over. assa dead
i got cancer from these changes
why would it be gone
Still in
the 8% aura
lol
no
idk maybe some of us are dumb 😄
agreed
Ok ok I go on forum and copy paste
Assa is nerfed can't believe it
Zeross is a professional sandbagger i see it
spec ruined
Inb4 chat goes slowmode
Assa nerf wow game deadge unsub
outlaw buffs are good
honestly im sure other classes will still outscale us heavy
because aura buff on outlaw double dips on bladeflurry
so BF maybe didnt even get a nerf on BF
only minimal
our stats < other classes stats
if anything at all even
frost DK will do 20% more damage then us
so nothing fixed, changed, only flat %. crazy tuning, ty.
You are full yellow name now eh?
Must be OL tier
any TLDR of the buffs received?
idk who changed my color
Just wait for whispyr pins soon
leave that man alone
pins hello????
im not gonna throw any hints or anything
are we thinking this will total out to like 2-4% more ST?
but
guess bleed build time is over?
ngl
im gonna gap every other sin with those changes even more next season
secret apl
why fix 15 0.2% overall passives, why fix fatebound, just give flat % to some spells, 200iq gamedesign
@winged sun when assa guide?
Why are they buffing ct even more o0
they nerfed ct
ohhh
reduced
Reduced lmao
rogues cant read
I would take back the last 3 envenom buffs to make KB a real cd ngl
True
source: lazyshadow 
the q is if giving up 2% aoe for 4% ST worth
many people are gonna ask
are garrote talents good again in M+?
answer is no
dont ask 100 more times
I mean i'm all for buffing rupture and garrote.
can we just make each bleed apply to 9 targets per global
garrote talents are only good on specific scenarios
I mean it's good for lower keys where you can't get off a KB ramp
aoe silence
ofc
why silence mobs that are getting cc chained to death already
but you're just happy to be there to support the team KEKW
all the r1 keys i did this season i never considered ironwire
its too big of a dps loss for it to be worth taking
you dont really need it for anything other than fixing ur dogshit group's gameplay
so try interrupting maybe
u have enough im sure
I would love to see a change to assa where you don't have to spread the bleeds. just press a button and hit an AOE with bleeds, just like a shadow priest crash
Ironwire is a DPS gain with pugs
its way harder than +21 key
not if u kill the pack before they kill you
in low keys stray casts are a healer mechanic
gotta give healers something to do
u can run whatever the fuck u want
u can even unequip ur trinkets
im sure u can even do that on a 20 rn
Zeross forgot what it is to play with people that aren't pushing title
Exactly
yea but i dont see myself playing next season sorry
or feral rip aoe
rip
sin dead
anyways'
youre coping
sin dead
garrote talents still dogshit
play outlaw
only in low keys they're good
Sin dead
wtb being able to use my daggers for outlaw. I want to play but I don't have the weapons right now
jsut craft one
680 by ilvl
Just wait for df s1&2 classic
this guy has 99s and does 45% tier dev evoker 😂
Dev evoker's are cheating i stg
his disintegrate does your overall
I came back a month ago, I really don't want to grind out an extra 90+ crests when I'm already needing so many 😭 Finally nearing the end if I ignore outlaw stuff
dev evoker damage is not normally
i feel that
@balmy condor Sin dead
sin dead
remove channel
reroll fury warr
i swear you guys hes gonna ban you all for pinging him XD
let the man nap
that was a blue for warlock at 667, not kidding
I thought whispyr disappeared to maple island or something
How much does the buffs actually give us though i'm curious
dont quote me on this but i think around 5%
hmmm
so thats around 13/14% gain with the other 8% which is pretty nice.
I feel like its more than that though.
I mean yeah ofc its more than 5%
yeah i dont know really
(for raid)
Just goto wait for whispyr :C
Man is gonna wake up to 50 notifcations
Man gonna wake up and put everyone on slowmode if you keep @ him
are they buffs or nerfs
well they buffed every button outside of the aoe button so its a raid buff
I mean the reduce in aoe is fine and st is now insane its like 12% from live
based off some napkin maths from a stix log it's like 7-8% of a buff? Maybe 8-9% I cba doing real numbers
FATHER IS TYPING
at least we generate more energy now in ST
how come
@indigo epoch jork peanits
can all of you suck week 1-3 so we dont get nerfed
I'll suck all season dont worry papi
jokes on you i suck right now

He was not a rich man or even middle class man but he gave me it all
Well I named all my characters after my cats.
Ginger is a Paladin.
Hazel is a Shaman.
Ash is obvious.

But what a way to go, right?
Who’s our rogue dev?
Realz
the janitor
Range dh spec, hungering arrow
i mean we just got buffed at least
He’s not exclusively our dev
i just need someone to tell me how it affects st and aoe
Roughly 30% increase. We are now best spec in the raid

More Assa Buffs On PTR
TLDR
Probably nothing changed but number went up. Fatebound is fully dead and gone, bleed build survives, targeted tuning good, lack of hero talent attention very bad
why
CT nerf was kinda expected given how insanely strong of a button it is, but I also don’t think it was entirely necessary considering we’re getting ANOTHER envenom buff, and caustic is both more accessible and more damage. Comparing what is essentially a 1 point aoe tool that passively splashes all your damage versus a 2 point investment for CT, which requires combo point spending, I don’t really understand why CT is getting the shaft and not caustic.
Fatebound is killed through 1000 cuts. Fatebound is unique in the way that it adds its own source of damage (tails), but also buffs all damage like an aura buff (heads). While on paper that doesn’t have a downside when we get aura buffs, it does have a downside when we get targeted buffs like these. Deathstalker pushes mutilate/ambush damage through the mark, envenom damage through darkest night, and enables vicious venoms. All of that combines into this just being better for deathstalker than it would be for fatebound. On top of another week without fatebound changes, the casket is getting lowered atm.
Garrote/Rupture buffs are a good thing imo, promotes a healthier balance between bleed aoe and just spamming envenom forever (which is why it’s confusing that we’re buffing envenom yet again). The balance between those doesn’t change much, but 13% to garrote probably brings back improved garrote.
All of that being said, yes buff, around 4% in single target, and it’s basically equal in m+, roughly depending on build (bleed build is slightly up, cleave is slightly down). With all of that being said, yeh. Hero talent balance gets worse, spec gets better
'Bleed build is slightly up'
LETS GO
THATS THE MAIN TAKEAWAY FROM THIS THANKS WHISPYR
So we got a 8% Aura Buff, a 9% CT Nerf to compensate and some new buffs ?
i was kinda hoping they'd unfuck CB so fatebound might be like an option for certain fights or something
stupid, i know
ASSA RUNS THE ROGUE WORLD FOR YET ANOTHER TIER!
I know this is the Assa thread, but Sub has to get something, right ?
Yeah buffed black powder 🤣🤣🤣
They have lost all idea what to do with that spec
couple more BP buffs and we get BP on single target 😄
I wish they would just hard sell on trickster sub and buff aoe by like 20%
"probably brings back improved garrote" well fuck
need nimble bugs fixed and that would help a lot
Sorry @red schooner
Hard sell on nimble flurry

how much haste do we need for raid rn?
however much ur sim says to get
i wonder how better m+ st is
Oh i thought that meant 4% in m+ overall
Fatebound is the deformed twin locked in the basement never to see the light of day
Thanks for the pin pookie love you
Xoxo
what needs to change with fatebound to be more or less equal, would a flat number buff suffice, i just don't wanna play deathstalker anymore, why give a class that has trouble at targer swap an even more punishing toolkit.

Fatebound needs Jesus
Like legit divine intervention
Just never swap targets! Woohoo!
imagine you are the designer of Fatebound.
I'm sad now
Got paid though
its okay man, its okay
No amount of numbers can save the devil spawn hero talent
Just give fatebound 30s kingsbanes kinda like ret pally execution sentence, and 1 minute vendettas
imagining myself as the person who needs to fix fatebound is pure depression
they designed themselves into a corner on that one
walked into a dark alley and can't get out
And you are still stuck in hell
hopefully we get 3 new hero trees in midnight
I can tell you for free thats not happening
its after 5 and I'm drinking. Let me dream
Arent there 39 specs + new DH soon so that is a lot of work!
I thought hero trees were gonna change per expansion? Was that not ever mentioned
if you ask me, we are a perfect class, thats why we only ever get tune nob adjustments
maybe not "3 new" trees, but the lack of big changes on them could definitely suggest they're working on them in a way that requires an expansion rather than just a patch. Add in whatever copium of unknown system changes that'll come with Midnight
Which is sad, because it's basically entirely passive and boring LMAO
Do you guys "like" Nimble Flurry
When the second Hero Talent was being developed, Blizzard had two incredibly good ideas, and since they couldn't decide, they told the Class Designer to flip a coin.
Unfortunately, he misunderstood what they meant.
We also got our hero talents extremely late in the TWW dev cycle.
If better garrote makes scoundrel cleave less appealing is something like subterfuge hybrid the more appealing poison leaning build?
I feel like deathstalker is also so underwhelming comparing it to like the DH or Pally and a few other classes, just some boring ST damage
Some classes have some cool ones, but if all you play is rogue, I can definitely see the sentiment being "these suck, just scrap the whole hero talents system". They just seem so tacked on and carried by the fact that the base rogue class is in a pretty good spot.
And with how much random bullshit takes us out of stealth, making the application of Mark be reliant on stealth is so cringe
like when you have to move platform and previous target didnt die(queen)
If we don't pick subterfuge sometimes youre just fucked and need to use vanish
I lost my mark on Stix from being in the ball too long and didn't have vanish. Felt terrible, I wanted us to wipe immediately. Does any other class just get locked out of their hero talents for something like that? I can't think of anything others that I've played
So much rogue class design just doesn't think about how fights or bugs can fuck us over
Deathbringer DK does, kind of
They have a similar mark hero talent
he's been saying that for a while now
Yeah, I just get more frustration out of them than anything.
🧐
