5% is pretty much
pointless
but still 5% for free is decent enough to consider
if 5% on one rogue in your raid is the difference between your team downing a boss or not, you're a shit guild.
5% now is more than 100k
if 5% on every other guy is needed via random to down a boss
@slate tulip try an addon called ellipsis
he's in im out
Well, 5% there other 5% over there, those buffs stack ya'know?
people roll a race for les than 5%
it absolutely is not.
tbh
Those people are stupid.
min maxing that hard is so unbelievably unecessary.
I'm not talknig about legion?
Read the conversation before you input
we're talking abotu weapons in bfa
where 5% wi,ll be maybe 2k
if you told me
If you’re doing 20k
The 2k is huge AHAH
but if a single piece means that much..
weapons cant titanforge though. we know that.
still warforge
Two or three titanfoges on big pieces rn can easily give you 5% dps cruck
I changed from a 955 neck to a 960 and I got a 1.8% dos increase
sadly
people just arent happy unless they have something to complain about.
Im happy to get a titanforged piece
but im not happy about it being part of the game
^
im doing content that drops X gear
Agreed
5% is huge. Can't count how many times we've had 1-5% wipes, how many times I've won/lost arena because I/someone else had ~1-5% hp.
not X + possible upgrade
I’m unhappy that my gear means less
I liked being in town and having people inspecting my gear
I loved getting whispers like “wow nice gear”
Now whenever I see someone with a 985 M tier piece in just like lucky nice
There’s less of a sense of accomplishment
Let alone seeing someone with a high ilvl heroic tier lmao
No one whispers “nice gear” anymore man
I got a "die in a fire" whisper over a massive titanforge on a relinquished item
I do, but that's because i'm a casual
noice
or just a "thank you for doing the DPS some other should have done"
do leggo wrists buff envenom
I usually enjoy being overgeared in +15s
I kinda feel bad about declining people that can totally clear a +15 just because there's overgeared dps everywhere
I feel bad cause now that im gearing other chars
im getting close to "get a billion titanforges or own a mos key" area
getting to 930 is easy
getting to 950 is hard
That’s usually where guildies ask for help
Why is it that everyone wants a maw key?
Meh
so you can usually +3 it and then deplete the next
Maw is hard : (
That's how I feel a bout upper khara. Cept that gives good loot too
Cath isnt bad at all
cath is a cakewalk
Cath is short and easy
arcway is aids yep
Catch is nice
Arc is aids on high fort
for me
Until a phase breach cast gets through
seat is shit
And half the grp gets 1 shot
hypothetical for you
2nd boss is aids
is it possible to survive the mythic imonar bridge solo soaking with BoP at start?
Arcway is great with a lock
I need to reapply rupture, and im at 4 combo points. Toxic blade is on cd, so my only builder up us mutilate, but that generates 2, and im 1 from cap
what do?
Without a lock it’s very sad face
You garrote
You rupture if garrote is on cd
even if garrote doesnt need to be refreshed?
yup, you're right, the guide has that exact scnario lined out
"If at 4CP and Toxic Blade has 1s remaining, don’t garrote, just envenom."

Fuck
Does monk have chest and helm
Bracers for ao
Aoe*
Well
Rogue is tankier and does less damage
Monk is a glass cannon
monk is fresh 110 as is rogue
Gas
It does nice damage and is bat shit broken in terms of tankiness
Monk is a draven with no frontline
im pretty much only doing mythics with my friends
so that's an important part of the decision
Monk 100%
At just 15’s monk is better
Rogue only ever becomes competitive when damage taken Ramps up
I mean we pug for antorus normal but you can play with your dick there as long as you link achiev
From a pure dps perspective which is the only thing that matters in 15’s, monk is far superior
Far far superior
Faaaaaaaar
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar
Oh no that’s monk vs sub
Monk vs assa in 15’s is
Not even comparable
Stuff died too quick in 15’s
Dies*
if they actually made vendetta a buff on you instead of a debuff on a mob it would be a million times better for low keys
Sorry 😦 blame blizzard for liking exponential aoe
I mean Im kinda picking a main for bfa too
not just the retarded spec right now
monk wins 100% ofc
👀
Fine 3
more like 14
Hey same
But you rich af from it
Haven’t been to herodamage in ages and today I see that master assassination relics are better than master alch trinkets. When did that happen?
It says feb 7th 2018 literally right above the chart
my outlul snd only sims 20k less than my bracers boots poison build 🤔
shadowstep just saved my life.
I was falling like 200 meters to my death, shadow stepped to some imps at the last possible second, and somehow im not dead.
happens everytime
No problem 😘
lmao
if speced sub you'd be free falling all day
10/10 timing
shadowstep sucks
Fk u dave
You shut your mouth. That shit just saved my life.
:°(
New best ability confirmed
I ‘member you
in the mountains?
You bullied me for going sub
Good times
Shadowstep does proc PB ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Cant remember what we did tbh
I was probably moaning about trinkets again
😚
now kizz
😚
I love that pug tank
just saved my braincells
he died straight after pull
I got melee'd
now I can chill
Did you tank it tho
I remember getting 1shot at that boss after Maiden cause my opener > taunt
Oh nvm not after maiden
It was with the 2 realms
desolate host
Yes
best time was HFC with sub rogue
They told me not to do so much dmg >.>
not using ToT -> dead
♿
Went from one ♿ to the next tbh
my poor retri
hfc sub was awesome, with the multistrike
Monk with multistrike
well tbh every rangedd is resident sleeper except fire mage and fire mage sucks ST
I was sad when they removed multistrike
which spec again
time to quit i guess
🤔
running
Close call
Hidden
macromeme has vanished from the internet, and it is a dark day for lulz everywhere.
i need to find an alternative
eh i'm there
But that’s okay
I will be remembered when dots scale with haste
easy 117 with alacrity
Oh shit yes
97% haste and you spec TB, phail
Im the best arcane mage
in BFA it would seem assassin is getting both sin strike and mutilate, yet they both do basically identical things, yes? so why would we need both?
am i missing something?
or is this just because of blizz's new design philosophy of giving classes back their abilities they pruned over the years
lul
everyone keeps laughing at me and i dont like it
please tell me, what am i missing here? both abilities are your primary combopoint generators, so one of them will end up doing it better, and thus making the other worthless
mutilate doesnt say "replaces sinister strike" though
so you could still use sin strike at 120 if you wanted to
pretty sure it doesnt say that on live either mate
straight from the talent calc on wowhead
it just does
hence why people laughed
Hey pals. just a quick question, for m+ do you usually run subterfuge for the spicy garrotes?
Allo. quick question. are most use bracer-boot in poison build
@dire hatch depends on
off pieces
helm / shoulders / boots / bracers are all really close
it'll fluctuate between off pieces
Id run subterfuge on fortified but night on tyrannical. Personal opinion rat
i use bracer-boot-4pct21h-2pct20h(back-shoulder) 170 mastery
alright ty
and @lone pebble id recommend simming or testing out what you have, according to herodamage the top 3 dps sims as poison assassination are with mantle bracers
@shrewd oriole basicly have all so its not a factor. i wonder what work best on progression
But as someone stated above the differences are small between some legos, so let off-pieces decide but make sure to sim different options
^
legenday change between mythic and heroic gear. so im asking for heroic gear 😃
Cmon bro dont @ me
oh shit haha, im sorry
Lmao
lmao
@dire hatch mate
there's no answer
the bis leggos depend on the item level of your pieces
simwhatever you have
Just use raidbots and top gear yourself
do rogues use prydaz at 22+ keys? finnally push one proud of myself
Only on tyrannical from my exp
what key?
I rarely find myself needing a prydaz, feint is life
dht 22
it'll depend highly on keys but sub 25 I doubt you need it unless you play like shit
nah dht is easy
go elusiveness
feint, cheat death, vanish can all be used to meme abilities
shadowmeld if you are nelf
nightelf in 2018? VOIDELF
voidelf ew
alliance ew
the winds on the dragon boss dont work with feint for some reason
but work with elusive
save cloak for feed
Well it will help with the ground shit
use cloak on the second boss as well to clear roots
okay so i found a buncha bfa videos crimson tempest seems shitty
ive been using vigor just because energy is the bane of my existance
gotta go sub again in m+ for another expansion?
the guide says it's personal preference, but it also talks about deeper stratagem for the rotation
predicting end game content based off leveling in alpha
Without legos and an artifact weapon locking you into a certain spec we'll all be fine
but dunno I think CT could be decent with high levels of mastery

Aaanyone?
If you expected an answer other than "sim it" i have some bad news.
has anyoen simmed alpha
Siiiiiigh. I'm asking for opinions, not facts. The guide gives me the facts, it's personal opinion. I've not been playing rogue long enough to form said opinion
so much hate.
Use an opinion simulator
The hate is building
you can't play ds

pretending talents arent cookie cutter in 2018? 
You can even play alacrity
you can play alacrity if you want
so, since im poison, rock vigor

Or just sim it
^
To see if DS is better
I hate you a lot.
Kek
coming to discord for discussion around talents
Wtb sim yoself gif memed to Sofia someone plz
I will stab you.
P-plz...
I'm bad at simming. And it's stupid, especially for opinion related things
Robots don't have opinions
Bots are not people.
Hey it's me gigglebot. My opinions are fact.
#Robotlivesdon'tmatter
I watch the robot torture scenes in star wars and I LAUGH
Screaming droids are the lullabys i sleep to.
A loop of the power-droid being branded in the boiler room. I do not own any of the video or sounds in this.
so just tried sin for the first time, should I envenom asap assuming everything else is up or should I time it just before it expires
👀
I just memed so hard my discord crashed.
do i need to envenom before envenom ?
ahh what a toxic place
I feel like I missed something of vital importance since that picture is gone, though.
before envenom
Puns
Yea never
@timid loom mate
you asked the dumbest fucking question
read the guide
dont waste our time
🍿
👶 🍼
why only one mutilate in the opener? That gets you a usually 3 point rupture
@pure forum my opinion on DS vs vigor: vigor is better if you're poor at eneregy management and frequently cap. vigor gives you more bearthing room. i like DS because i don't have that problem and i like the idea of harder finishers.
Waste your time by asking a single question?
🍿
it also allows me some satifaction from timing garrote for when i need exactly one CP to hit 6. but can't do that all the time
Tom mad xD
in the opener, with shoulders, only 1 mutilate because each hit of Mut crits, so mut gives you 4. @pure forum
That sodium is bad for you, Tom.
Tom triggered 🍿
You're being fucking lazy
Think of your heart.
I'm not salty
🍿 Tom 🍿
just annoying to have people who are so lazy
Free entertainment

Oeh
LUCKILY MY QUESTION ISNT ANSWERED IN THE GUIDE
that bleeds green
So. Why only one mutilate in the opener?
MUT GIVES 4 CP WHEN CRIT BABY
^
mantle = crit
^
^
^
Some of us don't have fancy shoulders!
there's an opener with shoulders
then don't use shoulders opener
Be nice to Sofia I swear to god ill whiteknight the fuck out of this
idiot
Flowi is here!
flowi : (
Thats the opener im talking about
Admin here to fix it
@timid loom clarify your envenom question, please?
@timid loom the only giggle approved insult here is 🥄 be nice.
@shrewd oriole don't spam
maybe anticipation
🍿
Um
Lel
He is the one who started insulting me sir.
giggle MVP
Sir 😄
Both of u be nice.
Fair enough
Lady i'd say
hype
Call him a spoon if u need to but anything else is going to end in mutes or worse ;)
11/11
look at that cute rainbow puke
Dont assume 😫
please clap
Again goes both ways 😉
thx
gratz
oh boy
LMAO
Sofia is there not an Opener tab in guide?
Also to everyone new here this isn't a personal help desk if people don't want to answer questions they don't have to. If you get directed to resources go there and try asking something not there and you're less likely to get memed at.
It should give openers with and without shoulders
I'm using the opener without shoulders
"What is an opener?"
Flowi 
thats what i call an ass rogue @lethal pivot
both cheeks or just one ?
that's the wrong tom : (
is that safari?
jungle
or you could use I.E.
i heard that comes with sin guide integrated
that states, never mutilate twice
credit to @supple hearth
lul
the point is, why 1, why not 2? 2 gives you five cps for the rupture, 1 gives you three
yeha but when do you use toxic blade?
what is 4+4+1
not 2
21
you toxic blade after the first rupture, according to the opener
I quit, bye
Sounds right to me
so your first rupture is still three cp
Thats okay
you're about to trigger flowi
if you trigger flowi, he gets banned then we need to #freeflowi
It’s been simmed to be the highest DPS opener
he goes full SARGERAS GAZE
If you want you can fuck around in the APL and look if you can make a better one tho
i thought they increased damage, so you'd want to get your first one as high as possible
right
idk
I'm not saying the guide is wrong, im asking why it's right.
its made by notter
Ye true
who the f gonna trust that
@gaunt moat I miss you sometimes
It’s right because you need to apply everything asap
Also probably not to cap on energy
im new to rogue in general, more or less. I've never played one end game before now
It’s all starting to make sense now
ive played them casually, just not as my main
@viscid helm well it's been proofread by wEak, but who's gonna trust him right? 🤔
He’s too busy fixing his grammatical errors in his guide
@ bunny, wEak is only good at the maffs, should only trust him for that right? 🤔
Everyone lost trusted tho
I would
Not all ofc, only orange or purple names
And some memers
We take it to PM’s when we’re serious
i would only trust @midnight latch
SPEEDBLEED
shitter cant even clear farm
THAT WAS HIS NAME
Trust no one
losing to outlaw rogue
😮
@midnight latch
NOTTER IS WAS SPEEDBLEED

anyone remembers him?
Good memer
bench me pls
🤔

I like rogues
"i didnt say there was"
and dks
What's the standard m+ build top sin rogues are running subterfuge or NS?
"then there should be no issue with having a rogue"
DfA
and he doesnt respond
no one runs sin m+
Maybe he has enough melees already?
@gaunt moat what do you trust me with thou?
hes the only one in the fucking group
what class is he?
@olive crow I did run sin yesterday
and what level is it?
as a joke
Arms

95
so you dont count
Well I don't have any sub gear trying to push up to 4k today was just curious what the top rogues run was thinking about using subter over ns
a DH
nah dude
19 upper
gotta pray
🙏🏻
for those bombs to carry you
@vapid moth maybe he doesnt want more melees?
o.o im catching up on wow news and found this on wowhead "http://www.wowhead.com/news=281762/battle-for-azeroth-alpha-bleeds-and-poisons-now-scale-with-haste"
why is taht a bad reason to decline you lmao
thats not the reason he used though. he said he doesnt want a rogue specifically
i hate when people use bullshit excuses
i know. he just didnt have the balls to say it
but im not trash. my score is and people cant look past that
lolz
@viscid helm I'm not much better than you =/
the fact that i 2keyed a 17
completed a +17 with 8 minutes to spare
you could have been carried for all they know
im not so sure about that
the only proof that you're PROBABLY not trash is score
I played brh 18 as sin yesterday AMA
Naya
When do I tb
but the dungeon score isnt bad
@strange python always
so youre saying he wouldve let someone with a 3k score in had they not even done Upper khara
Okay ty
probs
DW guys, dont needa check, I am trash i admit it
oh well then
question though. why do people have an issue with lots of melee on upper
You have to either a. more damage on curator from being stacked or b. not kill the sparks fast enough if you spread
medivh is quite annoying with 3 melees as well
As is the last boss when theres multiple orbs
ye
But those are mostly annoying whereas curator is quite a bit harder
most dungeons are easier as ranged
or even
most dungeons get considerably more annoying with more than 1 melee
@vapid moth its not an "issue" with melee, its just a lot of the bosses make it esier w/ range
1st boss ever time you move the sparks stay in puddles so melee cant hit em, 2nd boss lotsa mechs w/ rings around you so gotta constantly move around (range can dodge a lot of these), 4th boss you can cheese most of the fight w/ range
shut up
How rude
what the
who is this random player
<@&224906552333697025> ban this guy 😡
he's rude sometimes
have a great day
is world of warcraft the best game ever?
🤦 tagging all shadowblades
might as well tag the admins as well
such redundant wording, which is redundant
I agree with you, you're right
thanks, thank you
I played that game
He cant play rogue
feelsbadman
@shrewd oriole that wasn't really necessary 🤦
I needed to call the cops
You were awake anyways giggle :)
rognoma and feylz only come here to stir it up and be tocix, so it was quite necessary
now go and 🥄 them giggle!
show them who's the boss!
I deleted that comment by feylz and warned them. Dw
🍿 Boi, I do love me some drama
You can makes some

haha rognoma, you have a funny nose
can we pin this
Pinning outlaw stuff in the sin channel..?
You can pin it in the outlaw channel
its to show the superiority of sin over outlaw
But I fear you might anger them
even though its probably not
Slootborg isn't a rogue main is he? Why would I care about him
I mean
you should be happy that someone popular outside of rogue community is showing the flaws in your class design
^
pretty sure he just means that as an outsider he's not one of those "my class sucks plz halp" artistic boiz you know
and even if he was, you think a meme streamer has some valauble insight?
i watched the clip. he pretty much implies "this class sucks"
sloot is a "meme streamer"?
0 value
maybe not but it helps showing that the appeal to play outlul is very much lowere than for almost anything else
Get out of your bubble
why? he could represent the opinion of a new player for example
as is outlaw only really works once you have op items. and who's gonna suffer until he's there
when you can just reroll to monk and win
it's a lighthearted moment, but most would agree the current state of blade flurry does not look good at all
yes
of course your insight, or those of the TCers etc is more valuable in the long run
but sloot can show that playing outlaw just plain sucks 🤷
we have people working on identifying issues with specs and dilvering that information forward
making memes is not a constructive way of helping. so i don't see any value in this.
except maybe humor.
that's true
I guess
but outlaw needs A LOT of help if you ask me
sucks donkey balls
outlaw has been barely touched yet. there are more changes coming
sin feels better to play then outlaw, straight up
outlaw definitely needs more work
YEH SO MUCH BETTER
oh, we talking strictly bfa?
that is right of course notter
mb
we shouldn't judge until we have a better picture
I still think it's okay for someone like sloot to do what he does
of course its ok to do what he did, notter was arguing that it doesnt have any real criticism value
sloot can do what he wants
if you want to get criticism value out of a 10 sec clip i have bad news for u
but yeah, the clip itself is for the luls
it's incredibly dumb to dismiss someone's opinion because they joke around
I think notters more speaking about asking to get it pinned in outlaw channel
personally, i see the clip as more of a "damn, i feel bad for the people playing bfa outlaw in this current state" more than "this is legit criticism of the spec"
^
he's representing the "casual feeling" of just picking up outlul. and when that sucks then it sucks. idk, I think it has some value at least
the elgit criticism was the rest of the stream
he went over why he ddi not like it
exactly, I'm talking about his whole stream, not just the clip
the clip alone is just a meme indeed
Specs are designed now currently only to make alpha live. They are just bones. Things will come go and move around. Judging specs now as a whole isnt a thing. Judging changes as they come is fine.
I think noxious is right. we don't really want the clip pinned btw 
😂
I dont know enough beyond that
You also need to realize when sloot streams he is an entertainer, and he needs to sound like he actually has something to talk about
I'm not calling sloot a casual 
True
I call just boosting a rogue and trying it for one dungeon a casual look at the class
calling sloot a casual would straight up be factually wrong
I love sloot wtf
so analyzing outlaw at this point to point out mistakes?
like i said, it's good for humor, but nothing more than that
right now the only valuable information from alpha is finding bugs
truth
It's not bad to evaluate changes as they come
like, full fleshed spec or not you can tell the blade flurry change feels frustrating to play
I still like shitting on outlaw when it is as it is
which is what the video illustrates
I made my choice
if change is in the making... woohoo
If it's an iterative process, problems should be pointed out as early as possible
i wouldn't even attempt to analyze a spec before we know what the artifact traits will be
like in the sense of
calling it "frustrating"
he's making a statement about the current state that is available to him 🤷
might turn out useless because it's just for a period until we leveled up
(most likely anyway right)
i see infexious typing for like 2 hours now, wonder what he has to say
Sloot doesnt have his shipyard follower missions yet on his outlaw rogue so no access to the 4 new utility legendarys or the 3 new OP dps legendarys
you can pre-face your criticism with "if there will be no significant changes later in the progression to the problems im about to point out, i find them negative changes to the spec"
nothing wrong with making criticism with the knowledge you have available
why would he say that when he knows there will be changes o_O
Argueing over specs at this point is pointless to be tbh. Alpha basically just released. RtB was a talent till late beta
Its all just guesses for 6 months
Inb4 major changes
you don't consider the artifact traits as changes?
Only specs to receive reworks are surv and demo
And demos missing
OL will see rtb rebalance (hopefully)
we dont know how big artifact traits are
And remain mainly the same
^
while i would agree with the sentiment, blizzard has pretty consistently shown to not listen to a lot of criticism if its not there early
and sometimes they straight up ignore it
we can assume they will be substential enough to affect the specs in some-way
for all we know, there will be a trait "whenever you activate BF an atomic blast goes off" 😄
i want that now
(hire me blizz)
@warm parcel we're talking more about not being able to see the whole picture right now, than about changes to base mechanics
Hey thats not fair. They don't ignore feedback. They just wait untill the change they are making goes onto live servers,gets the same response and then change it after people were planning around that change.
RTB is the only thing blizz agrees hasnt hit the point with OL
its not like rogues need 'major changes'
fk it I'm going back to mage 
Well not really. They hate the pirate theme for outlaw
ive done a few dungeons and I disliked it but maybe I'm just using it poorly and getting greedy with it
Its no longer brain dead toggle
They want it to be more of a bandit
Yeah I like it being a thoughtful action but I dislike the current numbers
true
Its the flow
😮
i hate when speccs dont have a flow to them
I mean if you basically can't aoe at all for up to 13seconds then it better hurts a lot while it's up huh
They should swap the design of BF and PB around.
Two charges of PB.
But that's what i'm saying.
Artufact traits might affect the flow.
They defintly do in legion.
ye
hahahahaha and you randomly hit with an aoe attack like bf?
just to ask if you can name one notter,
do you know one single spell that was fundamentally weak or bad to play with that got "good" after people unlocked a certain character progress?
what dfa 🤔
That's also a possibilty.
That's why my starting point was that it's too early.
Now is a time t focus on bugs
like, not bad number-wise but sucking to play with
what's with the formatting Notter 
Ye. I don't care about alpha. Too far out for me to move the needle.
🤔
I remember when everyone was saying outlaw was going to be THE go to PvP spec during legion beta. That sub was ruined and assassination was awful and the only viable one was outlaw. Then at launch everyone went assassination until the nerfs then went back to sub and outlaw has been dead for PvP.
Things change. From beta to live then even at the start when they work kinks out
sub until the rework was almost unplayable imo
ye
fishing for buffs is a stupid concept imo
snd is boring af 🤷
I mean that's a fair point. They can change a lot of course. But looking at outlul now, I just don't see how that will ever be fun. No number tuning would make it fun (unless you're way op and that would get old quick as well)
