My uncles brother works at blizzard and he said in 12.0 we will be playing fatebound

haughty flicker
marsh fjord
#

would you guys play fatebound if it was just as strong as DS?

vivid seal
#

do we think 2nd charge of shiv is mandatory now in keys with the tier set?

vivid seal
#

guessing we can take it instead of MA

balmy condor
#

Basically every build takes it

#

Unless you’re still taking iron wire I guess

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

For whatever reason

marsh fjord
#

i geuss rnging a coin is kinda fun 😄

royal lantern
#

no

royal lantern
#

the coin flip is dumb as hell

marsh fjord
#

i kinda like rng in my spec's lol

royal lantern
#

but the mark is dumb as hell aswell and Sometimes gives you a headache

marsh fjord
#

im weird i know 😄

haughty flicker
royal lantern
#

like, both are nearly 100% passive shit trees in the end

haughty flicker
#

and its just deathstalker but you vanish in a different spot

royal lantern
#

but atleast fb has no mark juggeling

marsh fjord
haughty flicker
#

but with no mark

balmy condor
haughty flicker
#

the mark has got to fucking go

#

i didnt mind it at first but holy fuck two seasons of this shit

marsh fjord
haughty flicker
#

going on a third

royal lantern
#

also like

#

i hate fb

like, the entire idea behind it, the gameplay, the shity made up "fantasy" and all that stuff

but jfc what kind of failed system did they create when the 2nd option was never even a choice at all

#

the fact that going FB was never even really a option at all is criminal

fallow canopy
#

and the name implies control over our fate and that's doesn't happen at least on live and last season

main bridge
#

well it's not called freewillbound

fallow canopy
#

at least the coin has a sound cue ig

main bridge
#

it's fatebound

haughty flicker
#

fatebund

fallow canopy
#

fatebund

main bridge
#

fatebuns

royal lantern
#

and its also insane how the low hanging fixes to FB just dont happen

#

remove the frking self nerf

#

like jfc, it cant be that hard

marsh fjord
#

we play fatebound next expac

#

😄

haughty flicker
#

i mean im sure they change it next expansion to be playable

royal lantern
#

im kinda convinced that rogue gets bigger changes to hero talents in midnight

#

if not full reworks on them

runic hinge
marsh fjord
#

i think we are getting reworked but who knows

runic hinge
#

I will play rogue again in midnight but I need a season off playing DS

royal lantern
#

if you take the "rng tree", remove the rng part and give it a bonkers effect like "your 2min window is 90sec now" and its still not playable, im kinda hoping that they get the message that it really needs Attention

runic hinge
#

Can’t do it three seasons in a row

haughty flicker
#

yeah i might be taking a break from rogue next season

#

if i can scam someone else into playing it

#

we had a trial but i think he just left before even starting

royal lantern
#

its all just exhausting

humble verge
#

finally

marsh fjord
#

cant be bothered XD

haughty flicker
#

i need to do it at some point, idc about the coat but i want the maxed rep

#

and if i dont do it now it'll be more annoying to do it later

marsh fjord
#

if you want to do it. you should do it now

#

since double rep

#

well nah

#

i had done a bit of normal grinding

humble verge
#

#

maybe

marsh fjord
#

ah not to bad

humble verge
#

i had 7000 into honored

marsh fjord
#

some people say on wowhead around 36 hours of grinding

humble verge
#

so i needed 26000 rep

marsh fjord
#

😄

humble verge
#

the wq is still up for like

#

12h i believe

#

atleast on EU

drifting cloud
#

5h? do you not have a loot addon

holy my winrate is ass

If I played more than 2 games a month maybe I’d be slightly less ass

fallow canopy
#

i dont play much so its a small sample size

#

but HOLY

coral ibex
#

if i include my comp stats which are inflated bc the game refuses to rank me up out of silver

#

its higher

#

i play a regular comp game against silvers and drop 25+ kills with a deagle

runic hinge
#

Comp is so ass

#

I’m the silver you’re dropping 25 kills on

#

It was so hard to herd my friends out of playing comp. They had ranked anxiety about premier and I’m like comp is ten times worse. You don’t know what you’re gonna get. Hackers. Smurfs. But like ten times the amount of them that’s in premier

coral ibex
#

ladder anxiety is real

#

it sucks

#

i wish it was just 10 games for rank recalibration and not 10 wins

#

this is gonna be like a 15 hour endeavor to get my rank again

thorn thorn
#

I have 0% everything (I have never played)

runic hinge
#

I don’t get ladder anxiety cause I don’t care what my rank is

#

If I did care I wouldn’t queue with my boy who is natty 1500

No kick for holy or disc because "interrupts are not something we view as essential for every spec to have" even though they are literally the only 2 specs that dont have one

#

Their laughably long blue post about "friction" talking about why feral still has to shift out of cat to brez in the 21st century

#

i mean, its more like

#

he is 100% true with it

#

i personaly dont even like FB for a couple of reasons, but that we never even had it as a option at all is just sooooo bad

combined with how deathstalker can feel not great in some situations/fights aswell just makes it feel horrible all around

#

i REALLY hope they have something cooking for rogue in general with Midnight

#

we reached the poin where the general community is aware of rogue getting kinda shafted very often and it becomes a louder talking point, which is kinda a good thing for that

snow hamlet
#

FB sin, DS sub=almost 0% players, no one knows why Blizzard is doing nothing about this

royal lantern
#

i mean, sub in general has many problems for many players

#

isnt it the least played spec in the game bit a good margin

rotund oak
#

sub is weird af

#

a spec broken by default

royal lantern
#

and like, sub isnt weak most of the time, in raids it tends to be good to really good quiet often, but its a spec that cant hold players at all

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

royal lantern
#

if sub is strong, people play it cus they feel forced, and the second assa/outlaw get slightly buffed its playrate drops to 0 again

#

which screams "there is a bigger problem here"

rotund oak
#

thats because of the complexity of the spec

#

no one is gonna get forced into playing a spec that requires constant planning

#

sub is extreme is that respect

royal lantern
# rotund oak a spec broken by default

imo the problem is that sub is the result of not thought trought changes for a long time

sooooo many things are condensed into a handfull of ability, muliple things happen at once everytime you press a button

rotund oak
#

very brain draining

royal lantern
#

it makes for a bad experince for many players

#

like, sub rn isnt even really hard to play because its exremely scripted

rotund oak
#

random @vestal wren tag coz its a sub conversation about complexity

royal lantern
#

like, you dont need to make every spec a ret paladin "press divine storm because divine storm does 3 billion dmg when you press it cus thats its base dmg lol"

rotund oak
#

ret paladin is the sewer of rat gaming

royal lantern
#

but sub is a spec where it often feels that way too many small parts are moving at once, and most people cant keep up with that anymore and get confused and then dont play it

#

"press ability and it does dmg, when you stack 1-2 things on it it does more dmg" is a good thing

"press ability and it does no dmg, when you stack 8 things on it it suddenly nukes everything away and then you do no dmg again" can be fitting for a burst spec, but its too extreme in that regard for many people rn when the 8things you stack and often not really obvious too understand on first sight

rotund oak
#

its why its very unforgiving coz lets say u fail to allign or deliver the dmg in ur sblades/back-to-back window

#

its all over

royal lantern
#

ye

#

tbh, its not just sub, Outlaw has the problem where blizz doesnt seem to really know what they want from the spec

#

like, outlaws base desing being "you do good consistent dmg with no burst and high uptime on stuff" is allright

snow hamlet
#

The S3 tier set is the first set designed for "hero talent". If FB sin/DS sub still maintains almost 0% selection, maybe Blizzard will find the problem.

rotund oak
#

sub has still stupid bugs

royal lantern
#

but then at some point they decided to give outlaw "Burst window gameplay" with the BtE stealth stuff, but then realised that its Outlaw and cant burst so you play with a burst window that does no burst dmg and its just a big questionmark of whats going on

rotund oak
#

like not flurrying sblades

#

its just cringe

red schooner
rotund oak
#

how do you let a bug like that exist on a spec that does most of the dmg on that window

#

its criminal

royal lantern
#

and like

#

removing RNG from the "rng tree" allready kinda feels like waving the white flag, cus people will hate the FB rng even more without the tierset when they had the no-rng version once

#

but it all doesnt matter, because FB is so bad baseline hat you cant even play it lol

snow hamlet
rotund oak
#

they just cant fix it

#

coz i refuse to accept they can and wont

#

that would mean other things.. 😉

royal lantern
#

they probably can

#

problem is more like

#

the increased release schedule has obvious flaws, and the lack of herotalent changes on rogue is a good example for them

#

rogue always was kinda lower priority cus not that many peeps play it

#

but now where everything must come out faster, low priority stuff just gets pushed aside more and more and more

#

rogues complaining is just not as big of a deal when paladins complain that their tierset shoulders are 4pixels too big and its the reason they stop playing the game now and make a huge outrage over it

snow hamlet
#

vicious circle

royal lantern
#

sadly just how priority in a highly stressfull envoirment works, you do the stuff that has the biggest impact on your playerbase first, and rogue having problems doesnt have a huge impact on that overall

royal lantern
#

and again, its why im kinda happy that the community overall gets more vocal about rogue in the past half year

when half my guild pings me with "look, rogue got their first changes and its just % buffs again lol", you know something is kinda fucked because people that dont even play it notice it now

vestal wren
#

if it comes to complexity, its not difficulty of execution

#

so what exactly was the discussion?

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.

You just need to stop caring about it. You'll auto use tea, it happens, it ain't a big deal

it is punishing, the complexity is managable

since it's so single target

Well other people gotta look at it. i can't

Oh

@golden loom is the best log reviewer i know

#

You dont press it on single target. im pretty sure. not in the ST build

#

Someone cna correct me if im wrong

I thought you press it

marsh fjord
#

Yeah it

#

its clear the witnisses

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

ocean quiver
#

Oh so we never press it st?

#

rip

#

I always be pressing it when I got the proc

marsh fjord
#

It says. if you have lingering darkness or not vicious venoms. with vicious venoms its dps neutral during darkness

#

Its not very big. it doesnt make or break your parse.

ocean quiver
#

I will learn to not press it from now, any little bit helps

marsh fjord
#

You also used your Shiv before your deathmark. It's deathmark - shiv - kingsbane -shiv

marsh fjord
#

Yeah you want to have a full shiv duration for your entire kingsbane window.

ocean quiver
#

I do

marsh fjord
#

also

#

Your second shiv is way to late

ocean quiver
#

ah okay I see

#

My second shiv is normally late because I try save it for the big envenom in cds too

marsh fjord
ocean quiver
#

not sure if they stack the buff orn ot

marsh fjord
#

What helped for me.

#

Was a sound when kingsbane is 8 seconds. to press my second shiv.

#

i just made a weakaura 😄

pure moth
#

Its about lining it up. Second shiv is as first one falls and it covers full duration kb. You just got to optimize the damage gains

ocean quiver
ocean quiver
marsh fjord
#

Also what im seeing is that you are rupturing a bit to early. you could fit other envom in

#

you did this 4 times on rik

ocean quiver
#

do you know what time it was

#

so I watch video back

#

I could have been putting rupture on the ads at that point not sure

#

well one ad

marsh fjord
#

0.28, 0.31 0.59 3.02

ocean quiver
marsh fjord
#

Also it seems that you have no enchant on your head. the one from the event i forgot the name of it

ocean quiver
#

Yeah that was a mistake

vocal hedge
#

echoing void

ocean quiver
#

I just got a new helmet

#

and forgot to buy enchant

marsh fjord
#

Outside of that. your shiv usage just gotta be better.

ocean quiver
#

this was the 28 second mark

#

rupture dropped

ocean quiver
#

Vanish I don't have to worry about right? I only saved it for when I drop the hero talent by not attacking boss (mainly in rik when he goes immune)

ocean quiver
#

Or are we pressing it other times?

marsh fjord
#

no. not in this build no

ocean quiver
#

we can doubld gem the belt?

marsh fjord
#

No idea really i just have one socket.

#

I ain

wtf

marsh fjord
#

a pro rogue. i just see somethings that i know from my understand. i twould come later and ask again honestly 😄

#

But your opener + shiv usage is the only thing that really gets my eye

#

thats really big

ocean quiver
#

Yeah hopefully the guy you pinged has a chance to look over it, if not all good too he doesn't have to but yeah

marsh fjord
#

also did you rupture the adds for energy?

ocean quiver
marsh fjord
#

Thats good

ocean quiver
#

same for bandit

marsh fjord
#

yeah boss gotta be brought on the adds on bandit.

#

rupture the add and caustic spatter the boss

ocean quiver
#

Yeah

#

I lost so much damage in logs tho

#

because they hide the damage to the ads near the end

#

idk the name of them

#

went from 2.95m to like 2.2 or something

marsh fjord
#

yeah the presents you mean

that get fixated

Be safe

golden loom
#

But yeah idk looking at the log half blind, the spatter damage seems low (20m compared to like 97m from a log I have), and the shiv placement in ur cds seems weird (should be dm shiv kb) and idk 15 wasted combot points from seal fate in a 3min fight is a bit strange

marsh fjord

#

does anyone has the % dps loss of using thistle tea actively VS not pooling and letting it go off when you go sub-30 energy?

#

tried to find it on sims, and I just get some random reddit thread with 0.2%

#

and whispyr's guide on wowhead saying The main mechanic for min-maxing is what we refer to as "pooling." Pooling is the concept of taking a resource from a point of low efficiency to a point of higher efficiency. Assassination is a spec limited in single target by Energy Energy. Given our large maximum pool, we can use this to our advantage. In Season 2, the benefit of playing around this is very low, and the only objective optimization is to save energy for 2-3 seconds before a Kingsbane window if you are below 50% energy.

normal mist
#

Yeah around 0.2

bitter crow
#

ty ❤️

golden loom
#

The sim macroes tea to shiv aswell

normal mist
#

Use this

#

!tea

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

bitter crow
#

yeah that only works if you have thistle tea charges though

normal mist
#

You'll have 1 tea charge every kb and every dm

bitter crow
#

so if you just let it proc off itself, the macro won't work (if you're not pooling)

normal mist
#

You'll have guaranteed 1 during kb and during Dm

#

Assuming you're playing the rotation properly

seal fate is bonus combo points from crits. 15 waste from that doesn't sound outrageous and it's not something you have any control over when you have to force 5 combo points or 7 for DN

ocean quiver
#

Ah okay I see thanks

#

Wasn't too sure about it, tbf I should probably watch a guide and readup and the abilities lmfao

#

I've just been playing blind and assuming how to play, and has worked for me this far but wanted to increase parses

gritty laurel
#

yeah asking for log reviews when you haven't read the abilities probably isn't going to help much

raw marlin

And parses increase with everyone being better

Parses are complete shit half the time lol.

I'm looking at people caustic spatter breakdowns. and so many logs with so much of a big difference in caustic spatter. what makes it that some people have really high caustic damage and some people don't are they just doing more evenoms? is there like a trick to it?

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.

oh yh i played all of them

@balmy condor you doing another big deep dive for s3 (even if nothing has changed, just waffle for us?)

What is there to deep dive
