Like an hour ago I saw armpit

And I still see armpit

Meanwhile I ended s1 tww with no active trinket entirely on one of my chars 😭💀

Also I’m one of these noobs who takes the bait 24/7

AWARE

coral ibex
#

imagine running grim butthole all season and never getting the drop

#

yeesh

pliant remnant
#

84 runs of Grim Butthole

#

and I ended up buying Skardyn's off of an Ele shaman who was Enha loot spec

#

Good times

Same shit this season with box, rogue first run, hunt took 20 or w/e

I was forced to take it

I said no

Is 131k not huge?

zealous moth
#

was talking about raid there, in that case yeah, you don't need to vanish on opener since you are already on stealth

#

and then it syncs with dm every time

severe sedge
#

sub 150 isch

normal mist
#

And you don't really compare Sims between specs

#

The sim is a controlled scenario where X things happen

#

Real dungeons are a clownfiesta

slim pebble
#

Sims don’t account for your brain dead ret paladin teammate not using their utility

zealous moth
#

Or your tank pulling 5 adds at a time

normal mist
#

Or someone in pos not saving the first guy

#

And you having to backtrack

zealous moth
#

Also i'm pretty sure you are missing like 200 crit

warm parcel
#

It helps to realize who in the pack prevents you from freeing the slaves

#

I didnt even know you could free in combat

normal mist
#

It's weird

slim pebble
#

…. You can?

normal mist
#

Idk

warm parcel
#

Ye

#

As long as quarry tormentors are dead

normal mist
#

Yesterday most of them I couldn't

#

Oh right

warm parcel
#

Its those mobs exactly

normal mist
#

The bitches that tend to die last

warm parcel
#

I was wasting meld thinking its combat

normal mist
#

While the tank is already in Narnia

warm parcel
#

Yup

slim pebble
normal mist
#

Which isn't accurate

#

But nothing really is

severe sedge
#

but its my crit that is low then?

normal mist
#

No

slim pebble
#

I just focus on getting interrupts as long as you play the game you’ll do enough dps to time keys

severe sedge
warm parcel
#

Imo also send ks more in pugs

#

8s stun is invaluable

slim pebble
severe sedge
#

how much overall i know diff from keys but general

slim pebble
#

Last night I did a 15 MT and did 156k overall

normal mist
#

Foss you actually have SS in our dms xD

slim pebble
#

@severe sedge 15 pit and 15 MT

subtle tundra
#

me when i ask overalls(i have no idea theres a billion variables)

#

I AM JUST A HATER

subtle tundra
#

did the other dps focus same mob as you in the pack? -50k dps in that pull

slim pebble
#

I usually just call out which mob I’m gonna gluck

worn geyser
#

tank on a self cook route? -50k overall

subtle tundra
#

did the tank pull slowly, or weirdly, or didnt stack mobs fast, or pulled only 3 mobs, didnt pull on boss, mega pulled, did you bl pack or boss did you have a comp with more aoe/more st, did you have deaths from yourself, did you have deaths from other dps

#

but yeah dps at the end of dungeon is the only thing that matters

#

and if mine is bigger youre bad

#

and if yours is bigger, youre cheating

slim pebble
#

I’ll judge you for lack of interrupts quicker than I’ll judge for DPS

Question about Garrote if anyone could advise; after improved Garrote, do you want to wait it for it to completely go off the target before applying a normal garrote? (Im asking for AoE and ST?)

MY UNHOLY, GOT IT ON FIRST TRY

night delta
#

I feel ya

fresh coyote
# slim pebble Yes I believe so

Okay thank you! Im mainly confused more on the AoE side, as it I leave it fall off, there's gunna be atleast 2 seconds before all targets have it again, as need to apply, then spread it with CT

its okay... on the bright side

its 100% next week 🙂

I dropped Puzzlebox in Vault so I have no need to farm Algethar

slim pebble
night delta
#

So that's good

slim pebble
#

I took weapon in the vault because I’m not passing up BIS weapon and potentially still waiting weeks

night delta
#

I mean, there's a dagger in Saron

slim pebble
night delta
#

Seeing as I already have a 285 crafted I'm not too pressed for a 3 ilvl upgrade on mh

night delta
#

Where any other good drop is 13-ish ilvl

normal mist
#

I'm only missing neck/belt/pants from pit (myth track)

night delta
#

Yeah i'm returning to Saron next week to hopefully get weapon + neck

analog hedge
#

in a hindsight

#

i should have just rolled on sott/saron yeah

#

could have upgraded 2-3 pieces

night delta
#

Maybe + bracers if I get a shit vault

analog hedge
#

oh well...

#

we learn

normal mist
#

My main problem now is that I don't want the belt, because both my wrists, boots and back are myth already

#

And my belt is emb myth

#

Which means it will be my last bonus roll later today

analog hedge
#

as someone who isnt that expert in sin talent

#

why do we have this

#

cause sudden demise is bad on high key?

worn geyser
#

ya sudden demise is good for pad and for fun in low keys but its not good in high keys

analog hedge
#

📝

spice surge
#

Its only really playable in situations where the entire group outgears the content and everything dies very very quickly

#

But people kept asking about it, so it was added anyway

slim pebble
snow kindle
#

why is no one playing sin on Lura

storm forum
#

cause of the 20-ish rogues that killed Lura, none of them wanted to play sin

snow kindle
#

but why

quiet star
#

idk why they put sudden demise as last talent

tawny geyser
quiet star
#

it's not bad, but investment is crazy

snow kindle
quiet star
#

also Scent of blood x2 looks like talent wasting

spice surge
#

Yes 2nd point of scent is a bit eh nowadays and bleeds could be tuned higher, but the theres nothing wrong with the talent itself

spice surge
#

This scenario

storm forum
#

10s-12s with the lads for weekly blasting

quiet star
#

yes, but with outgeared group mostly mobs destroyed by flat damage of others

storm forum
#

where nothing lives a full DtB KB

spice surge
quiet star
#

so it helps, but it still doesn't make a lot of sense

quiet star
spice surge
#

But it does

quiet star
#

pala+unholy destroys mobs even before you spreading dots sometimes

storm forum
#

i mean, sometimes the rly small things die too fast in 10s when the ret pops CDs

#

but like, do we really care about the little plant things in spire or whatever?

#

sometimes they dont have wings for the first 5 seconds and they die as soon as you press CT

#

so you win some you lose some

#

most packs are living 15-30 seconds and we have time to get rolling and have everything pop at <35%

#

highly recommend holding box for execute big pulls

#

very funny

#

You can sim it, but should be about the same

storm forum
#

haste for the haste gods

#

you will feel that extra envenom per minute

quiet star
storm forum
#

definitely

worn geyser
#

i mean since its just for weekly keys, its like, would u rather have sudden demise and have some moments of fun, or go the normal build and just do negative dmg cause u have no time to ramp any envenoms

#

its def not a build that turns u into a ret paladin but its a good compromise build for low keys

true you could play blackpowder shurikan storm spam instead

#

m+ sub gives me the same feeling as m+ oracle disc. it was fun the first couple times, but now im bored and never wanna play this again

storm forum
spice surge
#

It does not take crit into account at all

storm forum
#

alright im making a new set for weekly keys with 0 crit

#

cause im allergic to the N button

spice surge
#

It just looks at "ok so if it does the damage this tick did, can it kill?"

worn geyser
#

damn i gotta get a demise set going

#

max haste mastery

spice surge
#

The boss with the damage amp in nexus point

worn geyser
#

that is an insane demise wtf

analog hedge
#

weird question

#

does having a full team with same armor type boost ur dmg?

spice surge
#

no

storm forum
#

i mean, DH, Monk and Druid all boost our damage with their buffs so kind of?

normal mist
storm forum
#

but not based on our armor type at all

spice surge
#

The reason people would want the same armor type is for loot reasons

storm forum
#

also we would rather have a shaman than all three of those combined

spice surge
#

Since if you get a belt when you already have a higher ilvl belt you can trade it

normal mist
#

Thats how I got to 280 in 3 vault resets

#

And I still have 200 myth crests to farm

analog hedge
#

aah ic

#

i think i got lied to then lmao

normal mist
#

But I was purely playing with friends

storm forum
#

they might have been confused with the armor type buff for wearing them

normal mist
#

It wasn't intentional

storm forum
#

cause you get 5% bonus main stat or something for wearing ur proper armor type

#

cause we could wear cloth and in the distant past we did wear cloth cause the stats were better or whatever

#

and blizz didnt like that so now we lose 5% agi for doing it

analog hedge
#

got asked to try 14 full leather, welp he probably got tricked too

but we timed it

brave zenith
#

hey guys when do i press crimson tempest in mplus

strange wolf
#

yes

brave zenith
#

it kinda seems like a bad button most of the time

coral ibex
#

all the time

strange wolf
dire flume
#

why do you think it seems like a bad button

coral ibex
#

im pressing CT any time i either have the energy to sustain it or i need to spread bleeds

brave zenith
#

okay so just garrote and rupture one then go about normal rotation

strange wolf
#

tbf i see a bit of the mindset. if you dont klnow what it does. it is kinda bad. when reading the spell does explane the spell

brave zenith
#

i guess spreading improved garrote is good

strange wolf
#

it does a bnit more then that

dire flume
#

its a lot of energy but its also effectively 3gcd's in one

#

5 even

#

its 2 ruptures 2 garrotes and a fok

strange wolf
#

it spreads improved garotte rapture and the extra bleed from having garotte and rapture out

dire flume
#

and does more damage than fok

strange wolf
#

it does your taxxes and puts demo locks in a cuckchair

brave zenith
#

okay so should i garrote rupture evenom then tempest

quiet star
brave zenith
#

and wait for cps to envenom?

quiet star
#

on hige pulls yes you can

#

on 4-7 mobs you will be out of energy

#

so less envenoms

dire flume
#

garrote twice ct to 5-7 cp, rupture, back to ct until 5-7, envenom, on use trinket, deathmark, kingsbane, spam envenom

coral ibex
#

reading is hard

#

i know

dire flume
#

fok when everything has bleeds or you dont have the energy

#

Guys I didn't run back to the adds on M vor and now my raid lead is saying purple parsers skip mechanics to prio their parse

#

What do I do

coral ibex
#

your raid lead is dumb

subtle tundra
#

tell them that they are dumb and have no idea how the game works and that they should l2p and stop complaining its the 2nd boss of the raid if they need a rogue to help they need jesus

coral ibex
#

my raid lead says melees stay on boss unless you get fixated

severe meadow
stuck lodge
#

So in our guild it definitely is lol our ranged dps are not exactly topping the meters

severe meadow
#

not your problem

runic hinge
#

tell your ranged dps to turn on their monitor

coral ibex
#

so somehow a melee who has to turn around and run for 10 seconds to the back of the arena before hitting the mobs, then gradually damage the mobs to stagger their deaths, and then run 10 seconds back to the boss

#

is doing more damage than a ranged

#

who can just tab target

#

you should ask your raid lead this question in discord voice with the ranged in the channel

severe meadow
#

Not to mention possibly dropping bleeds and any ramp you had

#

to do none ass damage to the adds

coral ibex
#

ranged players are allowed to be literal bots

#

its crazy

stuck lodge
#

I think I'd get kicked for calling em out like that lol

#

I just said I disagree that purple parsers only get them because they ignore mechanics

coral ibex
#

personally i'd just ignore those calls and if you get called out then put the ranged on blast for being bots

severe meadow
#

it's not even ignoring mechanics

#

you're just literally worse off swapping to adds

coral ibex
#

we're talking about the 2nd boss on mythic

#

the ranged just need to tab target

#

thats all

stuck lodge
#

Yeah, oh well. I'm also falling behind in parses because my ilvl has plateued at like 280 and no gaze.

Also I'm not that great

thx

tawny geyser
#

Chimareus, soak 1 or 2 for us?

patent heart
#

Do sin and sub roughly share the same stat priority now?

waxen oyster
storm forum
#

for raid, we're the same, but in m+ I think sub wants to giga stack mastery

#

but dont quote me on that

#

also sub has haste breakpoints for dance while assa just wants haste cause good stat and they are coincidentally similar values

patent heart
#

Dope

waxen oyster
#

its overthinking stats

weary stump
#

Dance valeera dance garf

patent heart
#

I was super mastery stacked for dungeons but now swapping to almost all crit haste

waxen oyster
#

besides outlaw avoids mastery

full hawk
#

But how big difference is if i dont have optimal stats

waxen oyster
#

barely

storm forum
#

idk about sub, but assa don't care that much

waxen oyster
#

stats are a cope

weary stump
#

Your 100 parse becomes a 99 parse

waxen oyster
#

stats are just the easiest thing to blame

#

when you play bad

acoustic roost
#

Sub needs at minimum 700 haste to fit 2 sec techs in shadow blades with guidon. But that’s about it

waxen oyster
#

also probably why people play classic wow

storm forum
#

it feels good to stack crit/haste cause resources, but it really doesn't matter at all, and ur not actually gonna feel that 1 extra env per minute or whatever and you can still casino roll high or low with a lot or a little crit

waxen oyster
#

no need for player skill

full hawk
#

I undetstand, but gear matters i guess

waxen oyster
#

for agi

full hawk
#

Trinkets, weapons

acoustic roost
#

ilvl

waxen oyster
#

weapon is any 289

slim pebble
#

Ilvl is king unless guidon is apart of it because in my sims for sub a normal guidon outsimmed everything

storm forum
#

ilvl king except trinkets and jewerly

#

i was using a veteran neck for a while lmao

waxen oyster

why not renown

slim pebble

you think they test their game

i think its “fine” pre zone buffs

that affect the trinket too

I love fighting dragons, but I don't actually love the mechanics of this dragon fight

static glacier
#

Sure, they’ve made two council fights two tiers in a row that just say fuck you to melee

vestal wren
#

just a reminder

#

subtlety was rly good the last time we had a 3 target cleave boss

waxen oyster
#

every council fight is

#

”random bullshit go”

#

now mythic is random bullshit overlaps

vestal wren
#

dracthyr_kek somehow we are bad at what we supposed to be good at

If we’re talking soul hunters

vestal wren

talking about first tier in DF

#

^^

static glacier
#

Ahhhhh

#

Yes sub did blast there

waxen oyster
#

i played outlaw

#

on that boss

vestal wren
#

subtlety did good aoe in s1

#

then got sucessively nerfed

waxen oyster
#

also our ranged were terrorists

vestal wren
#

and we now don't even have cleave anymore (or well, have rly bad one)

static glacier
#

Idk it’s wierd how they somehow managed to have bp be good at 4 then and now it’s dogshit at 3

waxen oyster
#

on lightning debuff

vestal wren
#

dracthyr_kek 4 years worth of "advancements"

worn geyser
static glacier
#

I think the issue is they homogenised rogue specs a bit too much whe they gave them all flurry / flurry style aoe

vestal wren
#

(i am exreggerating obviousely)

waxen oyster
#

Also imo

vestal wren
#

they took flurry away from subtlety

static glacier
#

So they wanted to pull back

waxen oyster
#

voti as an outlaw tier

vestal wren
#

which did immo just backfire

waxen oyster
#

except rasz

jolly stirrup
#

Nice, I was not there, my guild kills Saladbar, I am not there today, they kill Dragons.... i see a pattern.... AND I DONT LIKE IT

static glacier
vestal wren
#

every tier is an outlaw tier

#

if you are brave enough

static glacier
#

Sub having nimble kinda made outlaw actually not remotely a consideration

waxen oyster
static glacier
#

Since it did the whole low target cleave better / more effectively than outlaw (you don’t need a degree in outlaw to do above 0dps)

waxen oyster
#

especially if you still did a feather

static glacier
#

Then they took away precise cuts from outlaw, making outlaws dmg at different target counts look more like sub again? Shit at low targets better at higher

#

And now I’m left wondering- just what is their vision for each spec?

rugged basalt
#

can i continue doomposting

waxen oyster
#

outlaw used to be the good low target cleaver

static glacier
#

Yes

#

Which is why I don’t get what they did this expac

#

Why are we making sub shit at 2-3t again to then make the original good at 2-3 spec shit at those target counts? I thought nimble flurry’s removal was to give outlaw space to exist

waxen oyster
#

rogue doesnt have a designer

static glacier
#

Then they just turned around and kneecapped outlaw

waxen oyster
#

just ask claude

static glacier
#

?????

waxen oyster
#

how to tune rogue

nerfing outlaw is always ethical

i miss shiv windows though

worn geyser

outlaw deserves to be relegated to the worst performing spec perma imo

rugged basalt

#

Vanish shiv windows will always hold a special place in my heart

Atleast from a raid perspective this spec needs VERY specific conditions to even be considered

assa has this weird thing where poison and bleed emphasis plays tug of war

worn geyser
#

good i never wanna see it it sucks

waxen oyster
#

and poison always wins

static glacier
#

Keys idk, I think the outlaw mains are just more willing to force the spec vs sin/sub players just rolling to meta

#

Atleast that’s how I’m gonna explain outlaw clearing higher keys than dagger specs

waxen oyster
#

sub is so boring in keys

#

its fr 2 buttons

static glacier
#

I guess in a way I’m saying @midnight mist is brain damaged enough to still be on outlaw while casual just goes meta instead of representing dagger rogue

waxen oyster
#

90% of the time

faint mural
#

Assa is better than sub in keys tho. We chillin

waxen oyster
#

casual is playing outlaw

#

nowadays

#

or hunter

faint mural
#

Okay?

waxen oyster
#

fundamentally its weird to me how trickster

#

is spamming bp

static glacier
waxen oyster
#

my best take is IC only opened up assa

vestal wren
waxen oyster
#

to pepegas

static glacier
#

Flurry on sub fixes sins main issue - doing dps to adds in a short timeframe. It fixes outlaws issue - since sub has burst

#

I’m not baiting fuu, come on you know me

waxen oyster
#

now the pepegas wont leave

static glacier
#

I’m being genuine

waxen oyster
#

people act like assa having to manually multidot

#

was a crime

static glacier
#

Sub with flurry by virtue of design just fixes the other specs issues and subs original weakness

#

At 2-3t

#

Especially 2 tbh

#

I do think they coulda done it better than what they ended up doing by removing nimble, but long term it had to happen

vestal wren
#

then lets say, i have very diffrent views on it

royal lantern
static glacier
#

Or they give outlaw burst / sin ability to aoe

static glacier
vestal wren
#

tho i realized people are happy if subtlety get gutted ^^

severe meadow
faint mural
#

Sub needs more depth

static glacier
#

Tbh I’d argue the entire rogue class’ aoe got gutted this patch, or so it feels

royal lantern
vestal wren
#

never worked

waxen oyster
weary stump
#

What sin really needs is queensbane from kyveza to go alongside our kingsbane stuff, clearly

royal lantern
#

like, its just BAD if it is that way lol

vestal wren
#

sin rework would also not made any sense if this was the case, just saying

static glacier
worn geyser
weary stump
#

Precast queensbane after death mark but before kingsbane garf

royal lantern
#

you can only have strong/weak parts in specs as a desing when everyone follows those rules

static glacier
#

Sub is just the least flawed by design, its design creates fewer failure points

royal lantern
#

and thats not the case for like 14 years now lol

static glacier
#

In the modern game

waxen oyster
#

huh

static glacier
#

If all three are remotely equal sub is just de facto winner

waxen oyster
#

sub is severely flawed

#

with this new haste design

foggy fog
static glacier
royal lantern
static glacier
#

Sub avoids the frankly massive issues with the other two specs.

royal lantern
#

most halfhassed way to make haste a good stat for them

static glacier
#

Has better cd timer than sin even

waxen oyster
#

i personally think bp needs to get axed

#

and nimble just cleaves

#

alas

vestal wren
#

i think you have a severe case of grass is greener syndrom

static glacier
#

Likely yes I am biased

faint mural
#

Just roll uhdk bro

#

Outlaw or assas rn????

static glacier

My issue is that it’s not just observation, this is extremely coloured by guilds in the past and their demands for sub

weary stump
waxen oyster

It doesn’t matter how much I hoped, it’s been sub meta for idk how many expacs now

yeah who could have seen that coming

devo is also just one of the most busted specs to have existed in this game atm

Oh survival too

ironically havoc is like 2nd best melee

too

haughty flicker

so its not a very fair comparison

weary stump

but yes i agree with the sentiment

waxen oyster
#

ranged when they have to sidestep for a mechanic

static glacier

all im saying is getting a ranged spec added to your class is a disaster if you main melee dps

act like you pissed in their cereal

Stop trying to take wound poison for something that heals like 10% of one mob's health

Just do more damage than ur heal cutting

i`m asking cuz with Sub i could

yeha, sub is not based around poisons

Yeah the other specs don't have 20 thousand modifiers for poisons

another question, can i just drop crippling?

I just realized we're playing balatro with our poisons

or is a lost to DMG?

so erm im still learning and ofc struggling with interrupt for example on Mythic Chim ive been having a hard time because when fighting mobs i dont really use my mouse hence not only do i have to know where my cursor is constantly but mobs also spawn kind of randomly during intermission and i end up having to quickly aim at them and sometimes sprint or Shadowstep to reach them. So yeah any tips? Or is this just a skill issue that comes down to muscle memory?

sacred oyster
onyx veldt
#

ah ye true i do

#

LOL

sacred oyster
#

i dont click cast i just keep right click held down for most part so i can easily move cam

ornate aspen
#

Chim kicks should be getting kicked by ranged and/or gripped when they spawn. Only your problem when in melee

royal lantern
#

btw, tab targeting automatically targets casting enemys first when you tab around

#

so if you cleave from the big guy and a cast is starting, you can just tab->kick

#

bu when they spawn? yeha itss just be fast if you wanna step->kick

onyx veldt
#

okay fair enough

ornate aspen
royal lantern
#

or let ranged do mechanics for once/let DKss do their stuff while they cry about no raidbuff

royal lantern
#

i just throw blind

#

when they are in the death blob

ornate aspen
#

This works great until raid lead checks kicks on logs and sends you a message for being naughty

onyx veldt
#

ty guys

royal lantern
#

what shity rl would complain about you using a cc ability to interupt a cast

ornate aspen
#

It just delays the cast, so on logs it doesn't show you actually interrupted

#

Which is why rogue should just get an AOE kick

#

We may not have a real raid buff but bet your ass that would make us a staple in keys

how do I make sin's cds feel better in m+?

it feels way too powerful, cause you use DM+KB on an enemy and they melt and its over

sacred oyster

make sure you actually do things during it to do damage

little current
#

no

#

i mean that's the problem

#

they do too much damager

#

the singular target dies and im left useless

#

not every pack has a giant mob that you can center around

royal lantern
#

huh

sacred oyster
#

you can still drop envenoms on any other target if your prio dies

royal lantern
#

assa in m+ is a spec with decent sustained dmg

normal mist
royal lantern
#

like, many specs are WAY worse in that regard lol

sacred oyster
#

but if your prio dies the others prob dead too, move to next pack

little current
#

also I just realized I was on my raid cleave build

sacred oyster
#

when first prio dies, target the next biggest mob with most health and drop env on it

#

if every prio mob is dead the whole packs got to be dead lol

its better to learn enchant and etc?

that people what does carries, they get a lot of golds.

unfortunately i think if an hour of wow-work doesn't pay more than however many wow tokens you can buy with an hour of pay from your job, its just not worth your time

spending my time working for the equivalent of a few dollars per hour

the other's a job

coral ibex

ok i mean if you enjoy herbing and mining as the game you are playing

#

then you are just getting paid to play yes

but i am not that kind of person

i would rather be playing the game, aka raiding or doing dungeons

if you are doing professions just to fund your account, you are working

just get a job and buy tokens and play the game with your limited discretionary time

specifically just farming for it is uhh.....

especially in eu servers

unless you are unemployed and wow is your game, you probably work a full time job and play wow in a limited window of discretionary time

why spend your recreation time working for even less than you make irl
