Is it obvious I was phoning it in this season
if you are EU i can help whenever bel
I wanted to get triple threat i dont think i will tbh
No tanks are fun or interesting to me rn
I wanted to do it too but desire to play this season 0
I been through like 3 guilds this season
Nightmare
they added more tuning lol
Was ww not looking good in raid?
Yeah i stopped raiding with my current guild, got curve with a friend group instead
Yes but m+ 
Yea but we know they think of M+ as the secondary form of PvE content
reasonable numerical tuning that's happening here a week and a half out from the patch
152% is a super reasonable number
this is the cloak reshi right?
yes
Boomkin 8% dmg buff 
crazy ๐
slight adjustment
Lol...
sure it is
Cloak barely changed
it just depends on your scale
152% is slight if they could've buffed it by a billion%
Yea they only needed to buff it by 152%. Honestly they were pretty close to proper tuning on that item before. That's a small number considering how much time we have until release
๐
152% buff is in line with how they have worked with the seasonal items this xpansion
Im sure we are about to have a perfectly normal season with absolutely nothing weird happening
They have a lot of time to fix fatebound as well
Oh sorry. I went too far
Apologies
if they can buff the cloak by 152% just imagine how large the fatebound buffs will be
Is 150% dmg buff on tails coin really gonna fix fatebound
true!
easily yes
that would be a 12% overall buff for fatebound
Gotta get that outlaw nerf in, youd forget about it otherwise
Deathstalker tierset clearly very balanced as well
Just 1/3 of a bunch of other specs tier values 
says the trickster player
worry about your own numbers
I'm just gonna be out here copy pasting my season 2 guide
Yeah same
guide due on friday and I'm not even stressed about it cause 90% of the work is already done from season 2



You could just change the 2 to 3 and change the bis list, right? W
We hate changes
dead serious, that is exactly what I'm going to do
we have a page for the tier set
I'm just replacing the descriptions
Also i am worried about my own numbers, but my spells aint doing what the tooltip says and theyre not fixing any of it so 
xD love it
and then ctrl+f'ing season 2 to season 3
ctrl+f'ing 11.1 to 11.2
loading the bis list with special equip items, filling the rest with crit/mast or mast/haste
We have advanced technology
we have that too
but we don't use it much on the wow side
that's a diablo thing mostly
those macros are mostly used for like the headers/footers
like this is just a generic find replace template
that'll update automatically
Updated the guide for you
Sounds like youre matching blizzards energy in regards to rogues
22.2.8 
Good thing the patch is less than 2 weeks away, they have so much time left 
2 
blizz is pooling
3 vanish legooo, surely no more dn doomers cuz 3x chances - blizz prolly
You guys reckon we are getting other dinar system next season
i wonder if they wanted it to stay
maybe?
They said they liked how turbo boost worked out and dinars were a large part of that
So I'd be surprised if they don't come back
Not sure how I feel about being artificially made to farm dungeons halfway through a patch but anything for engagement metrics
And makes ce easier for shitters like me
No point in pushing keys until turbo boost.
I think tbh they like the engagement but they also probably like soft nerfing bosses that way instead of patch note nerfing them instead
at that point with a half decent group or friends you already done all 12's
I actually want to see if this tier even had fewer boss nerfs than normal
Bc I don't feel like it did
But I also don't feel like looking it up myself
I think it had less end of tier % damage and health nerfs
Fewer late in the tier maybe yeah
But the mechanics at the start that rwf deal with Iโm sure still got nerfed
Probably still accomplished the goal with stacking raid buff and turbo boost
Just shitty start
They did some odd nerfs to last 2 just before hof closed
Like gallywix nerfs for some reason? Not sure why they did that
Is Rogue the black sheep? lol
nah thats hunters
always has been
Ya I'm about to go on reddit and advocate for the hunters
They used up all their rogue energy making new killing spree
No energy left for anything else for rogues
What's a rogue?
They put all the rogue changes in under rouge and they got lost due to the typo
Unlucky
@balmy condor can you tell me what in the fuck is "discipline IT leader" supposed to mean
HUNTERS GOT CHANGES
yeah i asw
otherwise they would be
saw*
surely
Bro hasnt seem demo yet
they wont get nerfed
Who is gonna tell him chat
Nonsense
We just got a 152% buff to our artifact item
Tuning is in a very normal, very reasonable spot
XD
And anybody who says otherwise is an enemy of the state
wtf andrew garfield is 41, almost 42
what about it
its a banger
yeah
@raw marlin
What's up with my quick sim being way off from what single target numbers im actually pulling on a dummy, getting about 5-700k more on single target dps than what my quick sim is reading. AOE quick sim seems to be accurate from what I can tell though.
perma execute?
sounds like either perma execute or bad talents
perma execute? Could you explain what you mean by that?
dummy is low health and triggers your execute damage amp, and just stays low health and doesn't die
35% more damage on bleeds?
blindside triggering more in execute?
Assassination rogue does extremely good damage below 35%
the dummy is always at low hp so you're permanently getting execute benefits
surely someday they fix that
surely
if only we had some type of instanced location you could go and actually practice your class
they could call it something cool
like proving grounds
maybe even add in some small challenges or something too
They outta hire you!
Im asking for a practice tool for years now
they're too afraid to add it because they know they'll fuck it up and people will abuse it somehow
i'd rather have housing too housing op as fuck
i'll go full casual back to my halfhill roots
give me a dog and a farm
i feel like all content updates are just catered to the casual playerbase
for my house on a hill
well yeah the casual playerbase is like 90%+ of the playerbase
Not exclusively but recent additions are pretty well tailored to them
If hunters cant display some of their pets then we riot
Every expansion they have like this new feature and midnight is gonna have housing. nothing combat related
The raid buff was a pretty neat idea but personally im not a big fan of it
It just makes farm and reclears even more boring than they already are
i dont mind that. but if we keep the same hero talents and just get housing in a new expansion. i dont think that will get recieved well
but thats just speculation atm
If the level cap is increased and we get no new talents or anything to play with the ultra casuals will riot
i mean when is the expansion "feature" ever not casual related tbf
Its pretty rare we get an expansion feature that isnt combat related
hero talents are just reskins of us getting a new talent row so i wouldnt really count them
this.
delves are "combat"
They count more than housing does
but we're also getting hero talents in midnight
I dont trust blizzard to not botch this
legion we had artifacts
Im expecting some silly shit like the garrisons with that stupid mission table
artifacts and class halls were 100% aimed towards casuals
people i spoke to and tested housing said it was really good. and almost impossible to fuck up.
that wanted ashbringer on their paladin
ive heard a lot of really good things
but i just dont want it as a expansion feature.
but it is blizzard so who knows how it actually goes
Is that true? I havent heard any confirmation on this
i mean the whole marketing campaign around hero talents was that they were "evergreen"
so unless they just immediately change their mind, yeah we're getting hero talents
unless you think we just arent getting any talent or hero talent additions at all
If you go into midnight with just hero talents and housing. what's new?
More hero talents or extensions to them prolly
we'll learn more at gamescon i guess
i do think that the cinematic for midnight is gonna be a banger.
but they intentionally moved away from the type of thing you're asking for because people complained about borrowed power
and people will get hyped anyway
I understand that. but they can give us more evergreen stuff right?
i'd much rather them fix the mess of shit they've added
if they did an expansion with literally 0 new additions and just fixed stuff i'd love that
they're a small indie company
smol tiny family owned indie company
ion does his best for you and this is how you react
smh

My friend thinks that they will add the new DH Spec tied to midnight and if you pre-order it you can play it.

dh spec in prepatch only if you preorder would be so funny
now i pray for that too
I hope dh doesnt get a new spec simply because im a hater and it would be funny as hell
After all this time DH thinks they get a new spec, void meta icon is datamined
Sike
Good luck next time fuckers
its actually a new spec for warlock
I like that idea more
maybe thats the midnight reveal
new support specs for everyone
rogue gets bard spec
uh
i cant think of any more supports for some reason
too tired
ranged DH support throwing buff glaives
You guys are diabolic cooking at the moment
Rogue gets bard, Warrior gets SL banner, priest gets PI; the spec, Hunter gets ranged survival
oh actually
good point on warrior
it could be like battlemaster in dnd
you have a bunch of manouvers to buff allies or debuff enemies
Yes correct
every spec except dk has enough built in flavor for a support spec to exist and the reason I know this was after aug released there was a very long and exhausting debate about how it would work with the other classes
Warrior gets SL banner, Shaman gets vesper totem on roids, etc
Correct we dont need more rogue specs
Cuz they dont give a shit about rogue
Now a 4th spec for mage
That we could do
mage tank when
ok but cloth tank goes hard
You're cooking without a pot at the moment
4th and 5th spec for mage
actually make disc a tank
it didnt work as a shield healer but now it can be a shield/barrier tank
thats just warrior with ignore pain 
im sure they can make it unique
more unique than pwar and ppal just being shield guy and shiny shield guy
Can we just delete disc actually
They cant decide on shield healing or damage healing
well thats the great part, this does functionally delete them

I guess
korean bbq
we dont have that here
unlucky
Turbo boost was great it kept me playing waaaaaaaaaaay longer than usual. It also got my friend who is hardcore casual his mythic gallywix kill they one night a week mythic raid and usually either barely down final boss or get stuck right at end of season
It also makes playing alts way less crappy
Pasta
Has anyone played bleed build on ptr?
Chicken pot pie
Is there a way to get Crimson Tempest to show up on Plater?
pretty sure it does by default and whatever profile you are using is what's changing it
This is what I get when manually adding it
Blacklist is cleared. Manually adding doesn't find the spell at all.
how exactly are you adding it
Reinstalled Plater and reset profile to default got rid of whatever was making it unable to read that spell.
We got no changes
Seriously
Are we like the perfect class right now? The perfection

Isn't Rogue one of the classes that get tuned the least 
Birria tacos


deez
Does Atrophic Poison stack with multiple rogues?
yes
wait actually?
this
thats what I assumed
first is 3% of 100, then 3% of that, then 3% of that, etc etc
3.6% technically cause the talent
but same math
dont think we have that here
yes
were not that multicultured where i live
Sorry stupid question to ask, is atrophic poison reduce on all the damage the target deals? Like even include the bossโ adds?
well if its an add you need to have the poison on the add
enviroment damage is weird and it does not get reduced
and environmental damage doesnt work
but if it is damage that comes from the target it does yes
anything that can be poisoned will be reduced
but if its damage that is attributed to a target that has poison on it then the poison will reduce it
yeah atrophic stacking is SO INSAAAAAAAAANE HOLYYYYYYYYYYYYY WHAT AN OVERSIGHT FROM BLIZZARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
only 1 rogue in RWF
i mean ive seen atro reduce more damage than devo so its definitely not bad
but yeah the stacking is just a meme
idk why warriors always complain
it's just unnecessary
Dks complaining they need a raid buff to be brought to raid meanwhile unholy alone has as many parses as all 3 rogue specs combined
cuz it's normally prot
nah it hasnt been prot always
prot in raid kinda meme, no?
this tier was weird with how shield block kind of negates gally's egocheck
entirely
yah I mean aside from cheese
why do some fotm enjoyers preach a random streamer class tier list as gospel
and when i join their keys, they are fighting for 2nd place
because they're bad at the game
everybody knows tier lists are factual and true
and then mid season, reroll to another class
very few people are actually capable of being fotm rerollers
kinda aids
like 95% of fotm rerollers are just dumbasses that think they're getting an edge because they rerolled
yeh
can you pin that please, gonna be a while until we see rogue changes iether way
or they are minigame players
who treat m+ like league solo q
My other source of entertainment is playing tank in classic dungeons and being top dps

That's why I only play rogue
someone called me a retail andy btw
That way I can always say class issue
And can come to this discord whenever I want to embrace the dooming and validate myself
i play dh to ask myself
why most people suck ass at this class
Next Rogue tuning in 11.2.5 +5% all dmg
"is assa/outlaw/sub viable for mythic raid? wr 1000 guild btw"
some 2k io guy made a tier list based off of wowhead and now ill never get group invites ๐ฅบ
I just don't get invited because nobody likes me
same people who adhere to tierlists

are fighting with me on dps when im playing tank
I just want to point outโฆ no one in world rank 1000 guilds is saying that haha. Those are still CE players. Itโs the people who are like 2/8 mythic guild at the end of a tier saying โis rogue viable for mythic gally!?!โ
Idk there's been multiple people who ask what spec
when they're doing gally in like june
Legit CE raiders? Thatโs wild.
I mean, those players all still know how to at least look at Warcraft logs you would think
Most people dont know how to use wcl properly
they look at the parse number
and thats it

true
if someone genuinely watches wow content creators
outside of boss guides
you have issues
My warlocks playing demo on stix because it parsed highest and then proceeding to do less damage to bombshells above 80% hp than melee
you're missing out on a lot of good content with this ridiculous belief
I swapped to boomkin for that fight and was doing twice the damage to bombshells as our actual boomkin for most of prog
He eventually got the hang of it but it was a bit unfortunate
Also idk wow content kind of sucks
I don't think you have issues if you watch it though that's a bit extreme
Is it looking like a sub summer?
both gear about the same
sup
I knew watching Whispyr would have consequences ๐
yo whats the deal with spatter tooltip ? its not just nature dam or something
I think thereโs something fundamentally off about how boomie players approach fights where starfall is insane, Iโve figured that oneโs doing meh damage just donโt pool astral power for 2-3 starfall immediately prior to add spawns
It is most inherent nature dmg to our class
no bleed dam tho right
Eg it would work on envenom, weapon poisons while it would not work on stuff like stix magnet trinket dmg
i just remember someone saying the tool tip was misleading or something
yeah make sense
Despite it being technically nature dmg (plague = nature / shadow)
Tooltips in general are atrocious
yeah facts
For specific number accuracy
Are we talking about raiding players and the general player base
A solid 80% could do better just blindly following hekili or blizzards one button ๐
Changes *
you owned me
i hope you never change
well sorry to say but i do have to change my underwear every week or so
hold on chat
After a certain point you can't get any dirtier so why bother
mystic touch is dropping heat
granted idk how i'd feel going from one blizz adopted stepchild
to another
windwanker is probably second most ignored spec
Bruh this guy went ww 1 season
*3rd
Brewmaster exists

time for another Dark Ranger revamp then
Yo! Has anyone created a BiS list or something similar for season 3?
That doesn't exist
The only thing that can be listed bis are special items / trinkets
But how do I know what to farm two weeks before season starts then HUH FLUX?

I mean surely you can?
Are there special items? Like the boots and ring? Then yeah you want those for sure
Yes but theres practically no difference for items besides those royal mentioned
Where's that Whispyr video where he shows all the margin of error options
And youd be doing yourself a disservice farming only those instead of trying go get either of the 4
Thats true
Off-items are completely irrelevant for bis
Hell, even the tier slots donโt matter
If you have 4/5 tier slots it really doesnโt matter which slot is missing
Youโll find something that fits
Or wear all 5
Bis is a meme for any decent prog just nice to know what to aim for 
Thatโs chill too
If you just wanna know what to farm for trinkets, Floodgate, Priory and Dawnbreaker are probably pretty safe spots to park in


So youll be stealing my netherprism
fatebound again sim bait. Although fractilus? No play their?
Is that what im hearing
Forget sim bait
Fatebound is ragebait
That shit is simply not playable
Idc how high it sims

"hhhhhhey guys, cccan you kill the adds pls? My damage goes down while adds are up please kill them"
On mythic testing fractilus if you send on cd on fatebound your shit ends up in the middle of a wall break -> spread
Cause youโre on legit like a fucking 1:47 timer
really? Just gameplay? I mean if the numbers are so far ahead gameplay because irrelvant during prog
Yes really
Itโs a 1:30 spec where the requirements to burst are not available in 1:30
Like it just functionally does not work

The deathstalker set is undertuned to shit and playing fatebound is like rubbing your bare ballsack over a cheese grater
Take your pick
Do i get to pick which side of the grater
Thatโs a lot of words to spell Maplestory
the single big one for stripes
Or can you just rub your ballsack with your hands but just...while it's hovering over a cheese grater?
That seems kinda nice actually
I never played it but new games take a lot for me to get into. I've at least played ff14 before.
how are the chances that tww is over and fatebound will never be played at all?
Itโs this and you gotta lower one nut into it at a time
Insanely high

Fated to fail
Bound by failure
I thought we weren't getting a season 4
Idk
It was just midnight after this season
there isnt gonna be a S4 i think?
Blizzard wouldnโt lie
Itโs just going to be super turbo boost extreme disco belt-o-rama circlet of doom and agony
+legion remix
They could just do what they did to sub deathstalker in s1, buff the fuck out of it without fixing any issues. Like +50% coin damage

(where they had to ask what rewards people want lol)
Waiting for the patch where every item we equip is mid season boost items + tier set
Make it happen
Season 4 is just season 3 after 12% of rep buff and 20% of boss nerfs and 15% of random fuckass borrowed power and 10% power creep from leveling the cloak
Easiest bis list of your life
where is the 3% shoulder enchant?
We were killing first boss in 4 minutes during mythic testing btw
In champ track gear
what shoulder enchant? Is echoing shoulder still bugged?
Surely thatโs going to be fine in like November
how far did you get on nexus king
We saw the end of p1
sick, this boss will slap so hard in the RWF
Not that it matters cause that fight will not exist in that way
probably yes
Even if that version survives until RWF the boss will be absolutely gutted by the time any reasonable guild gets there
who tf cares about RWF, i want decent fights lol
not w/e bullshit they cook up and then gets 300% nerfs cus nobody can clear it
Itโs just tindral again but the fight looks cool
decent fights are a big no no for blizzy, same with hero talents #fixFatebound
One person moves a half second slow and then all of a sudden 12 people are stuck in a leg sweep and the healer is spell locked from a kick so you just wipe and go next
Good design tbh
Cheese grater my beloved
Definitely not annoying to have to untalent aoe blind every time you get to the boss
"we want to move away from fights where a single player doing a minor mistake immediatly wipes the raid"
they say that for years now btw 
Yeah
You get mind controlled itโs not an immediate wipe
It just happens that you get mind controlled and full cp kidney shot the resto druid mid ramp
that is really funny
I still firmly believe mechanics that not instant implode the whole raid but still are 100% wipes are worse because so many players i played with where not able to make the connection between an error 3 seconds before wiping
Itโs even worse than that, the tank combo is two soaks and two big 180 degree sweeps, but they go out in any order
So on one of the pulls it was sweep soak sweep soak
Sweep, fine. Soak, fine.
sweep 2 clips a mage
Groups 3 and 4 running to stack for soak2
Except hold on, mage โdiedโ from the sweep
So theyโre mind controlled
Fucking dragons breath the entire group running to the soak
Mages don't have minds, this is a lie
6 people donโt get in
hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
How do you control what doesn't exist

And itโs insta wipe
i love it
One of the healers said I hit an aoe blind which interrupted 3 healer casts
And then I step kidneyโd the priest immediately after
Like Iโd rather just fucking die if I die
Why am I getting mind controlled and then pvpโing my entire raid
Spec into bleed build, sudden demise your raid.
finally a pvp update
vanish before death so you get everyone with IC
Just have a specific talent build for that boss where nobody specs their aoe CC 
imagine pvp talents worked and duel was still in the game
Just need your boomkin to ursols + typhoon your entire raid into a frontal
"wtf our main tank just got shadow dueld by our rogue"
Druid gets mind controlled, casts teleport moonglade 
in my hc classic guild we lost one of our main paladin healers to first boss in AQ40, as it mindcontrolled him and cast blessing of sacrifice on the boss -> which everyone was hitting so it just killed him 
reminds me of that time when vulpera just released
and when they got mindcontrolled used Return to Camp

Late to party, don't know if it's been said but the necrolord hearthstone wasn't blacklisted on mc, my healer hearthed a key once because of it
โi got mcโd sorry i hearthed ill catch you guys next weekโ
Tbh
I remember doing mop remix or smth
Doing sha of anger, and it deciding the most important spell for me to cast when MCed was the one that swaps flight styles
I still remember getting knocked up by a flame shock pvp talent on neltharion.
And yes, we were told to not cleave but mr shaman wanted funnel
Ever get MCd and it makes you do Killing Spree and you fall through the world?
Every time i hear killing spree, that's one of the two clips that comes to mind
the other is the one on sprocket
They mentioned every class but rogue didnt they?
We just got 2 rounds of buffs. They are going to be making changes for another few weeks.
I only wanted assa tier buff, ks durstion and some sub bugfixes
Idk they arent crazy requests i think
just copy your character from live and youre fine
ty
I wish Blizzard would at least try to make Fatebound a choice instead of DOA.
I think Outlaw plays it sometimes?
no worries
we'll have to play Fatebound next expac once it's buffed to shit
for the entire expac
myth test pilot and myth undercircuit racing flag, crit haste leech
test pilot dps loss sheesh
@balmy condor any idea when jasters will get replaced in s3?
when you get a ring with high enough item level that the sim says to replace it
guaranteed
that's when you'll replace it
jastor is strong because the stat allocation is much higher than the item level should give
question please. is caustic spatter still not working on gally adds?
It works but that post will explain it better than I can
This is giving me Nerubar Palace logs vibes from yesterday
HI is there any bug here ? or is it possible to cast ambush and mutilate at the same time?
maybe that's a Blindside proc?
That is a Blindside proc
You are not casting them at the same time, its just an ambush with blindside up that gets displayed oddly
(because blindside transforms your mutilate to ambush while its up)
Hey there! New to rogue and Iโm going to be CE raiding on it. I have a few questions Iโd appreciate some answers on.
1: Assassination seems to be the highest performing raid spec based on what Iโve heard, does this seem to be the case for S3?
2: Do I use kingsbane and death mark at the same time when theyโre both up or save one for after the other?
3: How do you deal with multi-dotting a bunch of mobs? Right now Iโm tab targeting but it feels like Iโm missing something.
Thanks in advance! ๐

IV: https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/assassination-rogue-pve-dps-guide
Method: https://www.method.gg/guides/assassination-rogue
- We ain't sure really, there's still tuning to go
- For raiding, your basic cooldown usage is deathmark -> shiv -> kingsbane -> normal rotation -> shiv when there's 8 seconds left on kingsbane
- In raids I normally just tab target then tab back to boss and it works fine.
For point 2 - That may change slightly given the tier set changes but thats the general gist of it
The tierset doesnt change it, you just end up with a few extra seconds of shiv after DM ends
Sweet, wasn't sure so I wanted to add that clarification!
I guess only thing tierset does is make it so its less bad to fumble globals and shiv before deathmark 
Ye
Tbf maybe bleed likes having it up for all of DM, but i dont know if its been checked
Raid build was still better to just do it like before atleast
How good is the hekili APL to help me practice the rotation and proper cd usage?
its very bad
you're actually training yourself to do what it says rather than learning to the spec
so if it ever broke or you didn't have it, you'd just be clueless
thats why its good to read the guide and get a good foundation. then come back and ask questions for contextual things.
Also sin in raids isn't too bad, just practice on a dummy for a bit and you can nail the basics down relatively quickly.
could someone pls share plater profile for rogue? i only want to see my bleeds such as garrote, big bleed and aoe bleed. and i have no idea how to do it

finally i can do some damage
Huge, I just renewed my subscription since early Season 1 and I forgot I had spymasters on my rogue until I pressed DM and a huge WA appeared on my screen saying โJUMP 3 TIMESโ
Yeah thatโs what I meant mb
kekw

JUUUUGE ring
You can blacklist the debuffs you don' want to see
Here, for exemple
Just gonna pipe up to say that the APL Hekili uses is what the sims use so itโs actually as good as it could possibly get (outside of contextual things like holding cooldowns for an upcoming damage amp or add spawn)
The question of whether itโs good to learn with is another thing entirely
Honestly my opinion on hekili is that as long as it doesnโt distract you from mechanics is okay to use especially if you are new to a spec. I used it to learn frost mage and eventually I didnโt need it anymore but I hate it on specs I am skilled at and play well.
It got me used to my Keybinds very quickly and made that whole process much easier.
Real
Okay but what was it Season 3 DF fury warrior you could literally macro your rotational abilities to play the spec optimally
All you had to do otherwise was press recklessness, avatar, and Odyns fury
I agree, great on a brand new spec to get a feel for the flow, how often you press what to help with binds etc
Yeah but the gcd penalty hurts me
Oh df
Nvm
Also hekili doesn't really explain why you're pressing those abilities, so you're just pressing what lights up
At that point play ret paladin
Yeah it was like
/cast Bloodbath
/cast Rampage
/cast Bloodthirst
True and real
Just macrod that to your fav button and you were optimally playing fury
EXACTLY
i read guides and read discord channels
That is definitely the biggest downside to hekili
when i started playing assa and sub this discord was a huuuge time saver
I'm not hating hekili because of what it does, but because of why people think they are using it
also whispyr guides were on point
Ultimately Hekili is a tool and as with any other tool, if you use for things outside of its purpose then youโre going to get consequences
Exactly 
I donโt get mad at a hammer when I smash a window trying to squash a fly thatโs landed on it
And when i started plsying sub i just repeated my opener for 5 hours on training dummies or so
Lmao
A guy that uses hekili and tells me "I'm using it to learn my spec" is really delusional. He's lying to himself
Iโll admit I used hekili when my Raid leader made me swap to sub for M fyrakk
you use hekili to not bother with the spec interactions without sacrificing too much dps
You use Hekili for whatever purpose you want it for, thatโs not going to be the same for everyone
I can only play assassination properly, but I know what I'm doing with every single click I do
Same
I can't do that with outlaw or sub
I only played HO outlaw, found it fun, but way to fast
I was pretty good at classic rogue 
Pog
Well at least compared to my peers at the time
I cant play a version of rogue with cp on targets
Itโs not fun lol
He says in the Deathstalkers Mark channel
guys I play outlaw and I do good dps problem is my wowlogs numbers are not so good, how to increase it ?
Play better
Play better
Pad more
I believe padding is the real answer
sorry just realized\ wrong channel โค๏ธ
You can be the best player in that raid group, you didn't pad, get a 70 parse
no worries
I got my PI taken away for padding and then I started questioning my existence
Iโm not even kidding too
My guild fucked me over in many ways
Put me on bombs with no Pi on tindral
Still parsed a 99
Wait you're getting PI
๐ fuck you Castro
pi on amirdrassil was big
That's what you get for not playing in a aotc guild full of funny homies that you can irl meet up for coffee
not anymore
My priest can be bribed really well
if i ever play priest i will pi the highest bidder i wont bother with sims
lol I tried to convince my boyfriend to play priest but he never fell for it
Fuck
Double meaning
@gaunt sigil bribe him too
For every 10 Pi's he might get lucky
Chance increases every 10
There is a reason he isnโt my boyfriend now lol
No PI, no PiV
There's always time to discuss things like this in this channel between mutilates
I payed for his Spotify premium and he still didnโt swap smh
Canโt believe he manipulated me so
If they don't PI just don't peel
no pi on me, then tricks on you
Ugh, I need to redo my UI 
The sacred relationship of the rogue and the healer; peel thy healer, receiver buffs
If you donโt Pi me I tricks you 
And I'm sure the priest probably deserves it because they're probably the kind of person to life grip troll
life grip trolls can be hilarious tho
At least our shadow priest was a huge troll
Oh my god one of my fav guildies ever we did this shit all the time of gripping and tricksโing eachother
Being a mage is troll enough, I feel like the class itself attracts ADHD riddled zoomer personalities
And we rogues can swapblast slow people
(totally didn't name my mage zoomies)
mage attracts people that want to be meta every tier, cant blame them
i do hate them tho
I dislike the kind of PvPer personality the class attracts, most of the PvErs were just uptight arcane mages
I always thought most rogue players I met were gonna be pvpers but I was wrong
Aren't they squishy as fuck normally or something
They can blink to death tho
Like they're a nightmare to heal
Never played one so I don't know their survivability
If played well, it's good
You can tell if they spam ADADAD in PVE
mages have 10 defensives
they are very tanky
but you have to be very proactive with them
Makes sense
Real, I used to spam strafe but on assa I stand still, tab out, write and essay, doomscrool. and then tab back in to mutilate again
Forgot to include playing subway surfers
True!
Ill put my monitor in portrail and scale wow down, put it on top, and put Subaway Surfers on the bottom
Roguemaxing
Sin-Roguemaxing*
Im a certified hekili hater
what should I even do to get geared now
is there good catch up stuff rn, I havent played in a few seasons
so much stuff
Yeh if you wanna be 650 ig
the only part that's a grind is where you have to start getting lots of gilded
u are always capped until u need to upgrade gear
i just dont like needing 2 currencies to upgrade gear
yeah it would be cooler if they didn't exist
Take me with you
no
I need to just do it
Just do it
Why are you getting 3k on multiple rogues anyway
got to inflate rogue playerbase numbers
Heโs got issues
Itโs okay

anyone have advice to handling energy starvation on ST fights? any advice on how to handle it? am i using thistle teas to offensively early on? basically maintaining mastery buff?
no i dont have issues
Oh
i just have nothing else to do
You just run out, there is no handling
So what's up with the rumor that rogue lost it's main combat designer? I feel like I missed something
Rogue hasnt gotten many changes, so people made shit up
Simple as
People have been rumoring about it since legion
Someone says some dumb shit and then everyone locks on
Internet be like that
My favorite hobby, spreading misinformation
Content creator says some dumb shit and then everyone locks in
once you run out, do you just auto and let it build up? or just burn as it comes in
He remembered my favorite
my goat
You just burn it
thx
Np

Whispyr what is the gain/loss from recent tuning
Wdym
True
Deathstalker tier set is like half of fatebounds still
Even though fatebound tier set is weak
And also Fatebound doesnโt work

Surely they fix it in time
im the only one in my guild actually actively playing the game since im gearing my 3rd rogue

Do I just tell my raid lead that I don't need tier pieces early on and to prio literally anyone else kek
probably
The tier is a huge gain
Donโt get me wrong
Like even the weakest tier set bonuses are 2x what current tier is
Itโs just that going from a 4%/4% tier to an 8%/8% tier
Isnโt impressive
When other specs have like 20/20
Yea ๐ญ makes sense
Sorry is essence bomb just the tier set
If we werenโt in bizarro world tuning, our tier is kinda fine
But like half the specs in the game have 30-40% tier sets
Yes Essence Bomb is the tier set
And the other half have 15% tier sets
And itโs like
?????
Trickster is like 35% or some shit for sub
I mean. July is a longer month so they have a whole extra day to realize one of these things is not like the other
๐
Ok that image was a lie, its not 31%, that was just a burst
how fun is dev
wtf is essence bomb
FS tier
yeh thats about right
Kinda op
I do still need to learn sub just in case
I would play evoker if I could look like anything else 100% of the time
Use a toy or consumable is only answer
also this is the most whispyr-complaint ever but it's so much harder to theorycraft when your shit is bad compared to when its good
not even talking motivation wise, which is obviously non-existent
but just logically like if you have a thing that's 30%
and you find gains for it
GG, you did it
it gets nerfed, you just test the things you added to see if they're still good
and if they're not, you reverse it
but if your shit is BAD
then the gains aren't there to begin with
Surprisingly it goes both ways
and so when it gets buffed, now you have to test a bunch of shit
I can think of pres as an example
and it's hell
Of situations where new stuff is so insanely strong that you have no choice but to play around it
When the realization hit that you could essentially find and replace a few words in your guide because there's no changes. I realized it was a
tier
And any attempt at theorycrafting ends up being dismissed as a loss
Pres has it with the new tier for Flameshaper
I have all 12s, I'm at 2945
Its so insanely overtuned that you have no choice but to play around it thoroughly and entirely without it being a hefty loss
yah but it's WAYYYYYY easier to backpedal out of a crazy tier set than it is to randomly get your tier set tripled in the first week of a patch and then have to scramble to find gains
True
Blizzard loves to do last minute major buffs to stuff
Maybe our sets power is increased by 400% next ptr or when patch is live

blizzard pov when they buff the shit out of envenom and all of a sudden it's "wait a minute, dry shiv?"
Real as hell
you are
But whispyr
You could cook fatebound
Make it kinda sorta not really playable
dude this patch I've had less than 0 desire to theorycraft anything
no
like whats the point
Dont worry king they are chefing up a god tier rework for midnight
I got the sims working with the dry shiv stuff and did some fixes for m+ where it wasn't vanishing and whatever
I took one look at fatebound
saw it was going 0:00, 0:45, 2:00
and I just went "yea......"
and then left it to rot
Any tips on CD usage on gally p1? My 1 min comes up as we move to next set of adds but adds die too fast to put on there. Feels weird using it at like 40s left before big CDs come back up. Is it worth just holding kingsbane or send it on an add anyways?
but the deathstalker tier is so bad fatebound is simming higher even trolling insanely hard








the typing

Its achtually only 30%
