@keen inlet i don't know if sin looks the most finished, there's still 8 months to go and some changes coming.
it's missing some stuff that make it work in legion
its missing Alacrity
i get that
#unfinished
still wouldn't use that phrase
lets all play dhs instead
also since theres no more KB
the true melee class
idk man. It's opinion at this point. I'm unsure how much attention rogue's gonna get, overall
Until I see more changes for outlaw I'm going to continue being pessimistic
very complex
So whos going to be doing the state of class for rogues on wowhead
heh can't brush it off as "opinion"
saying that kinda implies it's close to finished 😛
well sin has been the spec with the best non-set rotation, where sub and/or otl are pretty bad to play without tier
big ol doinks
Down in Amish
its fookin nice out
the most finished of the rogue specs = / = finished
looks decent = I think it's decent looking, pretty similar to live (sorry about alac bois)
too early to pass meaningful judgment (I wonder what this means)
👍 Don't make me get spicy on you bunny
i just want us to do appropriate dmg again
i'd concede i didn't read the 2nd part, but then you made the red line make white edges, so i'm not gonna
remove poison bomb

remove poison bomb
no BULLY Flowi
NOW
GANG
flowi cant even get to maps in poe 🤤
what are you on about
u keep DYING
softcore yikes
^
the old flowi would've mapped in hc bestiary
soon
@notter I guess since I'm sin, I should be green
Also @viscid helm @gaunt moat @keen inlet I doubt assa get any more big changes

triple threat
It plays very much like wod assa
i mean
Which they were clearly happy with cuz that was pretty much legion assa
i want something that play like mop combat 😦
Exactly
i want wotlk combat hellu
I don’t really see a reason to change assa any further
but rupture spec
i know 😸
the lyrics for despacito are pretty fucked up
the guy wants to make the girl forget about her name
and write a manuscript so she forgets her past
and then he rapes her
or
and brainwashes her to be a sexslave
I mean
like it was
It not like dispatch was great to play
@shrewd oriole well "big" changes, like, almost no spec of any class is gonna get big changes.
I hope outlaw gets big changes
is dispatch the new hemo?
@shrewd oriole how much time do you have into outlaw? like a few times, or like 100m+?
lol
100m as in 100 minutes?
100 runs or like full tiers
only at 10m after 6 months
instances
sorry
Got like 20
to the right number
I still think it’s a trash spec
And would much prefer nearly any previous iteration of combat
i just like to know where people are coming from before I talk about revisions.
Wod combat, cata combat, mop combat, wotlk combat
there are cool things they could have done with outlaw. they did none of them.
Amen
what do you mean bro
pure scaling.
Well, there’s 1 cool thing they did
They made the spec trash so that we don’t have to play it
LETS SCUFF THE WHOLE SPEC
I am maddest at BTE scale.
woah why are we discussing pirates in here
🤺
tom just hopes WoD sub comes back
rupture, snd, premed, burst and then nothing

such a well planned spec
tbh, i like crit. always have. love that sin scales with crit. would have like to see outlaw stack crit and use BTE on cd. with a high enough scale that a non crit bte = a non crit RT, but a crit bte = 4x a RT.
could have been a talent that repped DFA
ST, doesnt abuse Bladeflurry.
i just realized that bleed spec sin is basically wotlk bleed combat
Did you actually play wod sub
Wod sub was ducking great
@dire spoke that’s basically what it is now xd just worse
Ye
We were speedy boios
That shit was so broken xd
I am a boi on speed, does that work too?
I mained sub all through hfc yeah
You gonna tell me
That shot wasn’t twice as good as current sub
It played a lot faster cuz of MS
Sub in hfc was fun as fuck
Yeah
was it because of sub, or because of capacitor though?
Burst of Speed was one of the greatest talents ever.
I played warrior only until hfc
didn't require an alt because guild was bad enough
If warlocks can keep burning rush then we should keep burst of speed
Hey, guys. Just wanted to ask if using eye of command changes your stat weights? Cuz raidbots shows same for fang\eye.
but ah, can't be more mobile that DHes now can we...
Sim it
Monk is as mobile as DH
burst of speed was the reason i had to kite iron stars on garrosh hc
Arguably more
did you even read what i said?
fuck burst of speed
^
Then no
Answered your own question
If it shows the same it’s the same like

With eoc haste is bis cuz you gotta AA 10 times real quick
@quiet cape depends on ilvl of each. and you need to decide for yourself if you can maintain the eye buff or not. if 2t would need mouseover macros for the ruptures.
Zoop 👉 😎 👉
if they sim equal, then just use dogs. cause lazy
That took a while
I know they won't do it, but it would be cool to bring back old school backstab (does more dmg from behind, hehehehehe) and put it back to combat like it should be with most of your damage coming from AA and Sinister Stryyyyke

Yeah right
Don’t tell me you’re a 2.2 pleb
2,15 here
nah
disagree strongly on positioning requirements
they have repeatedly shown that they aren't capable of designing fights to be friendly around them
Tom is 2,4 but still can't get good logs 
At this point we get 1-2 bosses per raid that you can barely even get to the side of
Until you get 2.3
was that a joke about alacrity? lul
cuz just got eye from chest
Nice gear m8
LUL
still dreaming for 2m
Oh my trinket isnt ilvl 1000 btw
legends have it, that if you link a raidbot sim with alacrity talented, you will get a secret tag in this discord that will give you access to a special chat-channel where tips for #1 parses are being shared
a ton
Nice versa mate
Cringw

🤔
Rip ok
Btw why herodamage shows that eye 960 almost equal fang 970 on single target
but on dual target it is eye 960 equal fang 980.
what's that shit?
Uh nevermind
almost haste>agi
Big boy sim
lul
I guess it's a player issue
Simming about the same
No we suck
instead of 2350
Yeah
yeh because of lower gear
Rip
obviously
No
TB is shit compared to bleed
My crit gear is pretty neat
clearly not
Don't
because you dont target swap and fok
thats the way it is?
and thats the shit
oh right..
Don't question sims
aight sorry
420iq qs
sims have been done by a computer. do you question a computer?
44% crit, 114% mast, 15% versa in bleed gear
♿ questioning sims ♿
I sim 2.2
Do I sim more than you @gusty kestrel
@marble hemlock Let's not treat sims like they're gospel, they're only as good as the apl. Sometimes we're off. This late in the xpac tho we're pretty accurate!
Maybe its because you play alac
i wasnt being serious
Its in the apl

nevermind
thats because it is

if sim < Alacrity sim then +200k dps
WHICH CAT
stfu
goes into general
My car is a green cat. A sin cat
sees "cat weaving"
what if the cats are playing assa?
They are talking about cats in general already
15% pb every pull
just join the conversation
I lowkey find cats hella annoying
You just like looking at them but dont want to own one

how many pantheon trinkets?
Neither does the majority of us
Slagg
We're back boys
its big dick
Mizume changed to other ass
I change weekly- ish
if I see ass on profile picture I just assume its you
iirc he has 940/960 t20
most of the time it's correct
Probably close to 99%
Doesn't matter what the name is, I probably just changed it. kek
is t20 really necessary for bleed?
Purly singletarget i mean
😉
Yes it is
Im loosing so much stats if i go 2pc/4pc
Yes
I got 985 legs
auzi even with 915 t20 you should sim higher with bleed
Nah
shoulders/hands for t20 if possible
I think I'd pay close to 1m-2m for 940+ t20 shoulders
jesus
you can play it without t20 but man it sucks
Ilvl doesnt matter much
it hurts
so its not worth going bleed
When 2p t20 is op af for bleed.
Unless you're rocking some 915 wellfare ass shit
with potential 2pc/4pc
sim it a bit, for me, my t20 915 is better than 980 offpieces
Rip
@amber sleet any updates on the raidbots?
😦
No not yet
jack shitting on the other rogue lul
Still figuring out which pieces to swap out
Dat affli 
40% add dmg 
Ye
lock padder 😄
@amber sleet if you use raidbots, their top gear thing is really neat fro that
Yea but the thing is i dont have all the pieces
So i have to manually put them in, using Gear compare
aye rip
depends on your offpieces. ideally shoulders/hands
cloak isnt a bad choice just because they give low stats no matter the ilvl
yup i think i have to go with cloak
cuz the difference between my 945 t20 and my 960 t21 isnt that big
yeah. what pieces of t20 do you have currently?
I have them all
But only my cloak is TF'd
rest is basic 930
Swapping my 980 hands to t20 930 feels so bad
But i guess yolo
yikes
lul
O.o
do it!
200k loss with alacrity 😃
EP + Alacrity is the new thing we going through
@strange python 2.204m with t20 shoulders and cloak
You're not outlaw
even bigger loss with ep
😦
and you never will be
Even you jhonwei? Brother? 
still way lower than my poison
alacrity is just bleed build with extra steps
change my mind
1 button less to press, you just smash everything
I want to play alahcrity (on purpose, get it) but it sucks
im actually playing with alacrity for mythic argus, because its only 20k lower than TB for a 10 minutes fight
I'd assume it's still crit/mastery orbs
although stacking haste plus alacrity
the memes
GOTTA
GO
FAST
and I really dont like the timers for TB sometimes for that fight, specially P3, where I dont know if I TB+KB the module or just wait to use on boss 🤔
the funny part about alacrity is that haste > agility 😂
rip i guess you're still praying for
gods
rip
fml
Im gonna fucking make it work somehow
My offpieces are bad for bleed aswell
Like my belt is 985, but with haste/mast
Finally got all legendaries for assas, but shoulder/boots sims 30k higher than bracer/shoulders on 3-4 min fights, should I still use bracers?
😄
👀
@heavy plover short answer: yes
rank 37 argus 
@manic vigil Thanks
@manic vigil What if boots/bracers sim higher, but i really feel like shoulders are important
Depends on how much higher they sim
And on the fight I guess
Sim results always need some interpretation
Still not good enough to beat Him tho?
hello everyone, i currently have three trinkets in my bags and dont know which is the best to use , 915 tempered egg of serpentrix, 915 gorshalachs legacy and a 940 seeping scourgwing
@marble hemlock alac is crazy boring.
assassination
@strange python most likely scourgewing, but can sim it
Should sim it*
i never knew how to sim whats the easiest way to do so
that's what i implied, just being nice 😄
Raidbots
If you can navigate hornpub, you can sim yourself
lmfao
It's that easy
it has hidden bonuses that no APL can simulate
I think the buffs (envenom, EP, T20 2p) uptime for alacrity is a little bit off, it could improve for sure
hmm
@warm parcel
maybe he forced too much? 🤔
if you force it, you break it
Literally best env cpndition is cp>4

Theres no clipping no uptime max nothing
hmm
Hi guys
@strange python Simming yourself will provide you the best answer, but based on my knowledge, I'd run the eggs with SSW(Vers trinket)
!simc
How to sim yourself - guide: https://goo.gl/YACUkz
Download simulationcraft: https://simulationcraft.org/
Or use Raidbots: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot
btw, I ran some adjustments for env at 3cp. wasnt that much of a loss. I figure there are clip cases where you could do so.
so #ENVonCD ?
Should i go with shoulder + feet combo if i dont have wrist?
Shoulders will be ideally your strong legendary but again
maybe not full rule when you have the time, but prob at the slow end of kb
S I M.
@fervent beacon i actully was lucky enough to get an EOC its 890 but still figured keeping it is best of my four trinkets
im simming as we speak tho
EoC will be great one, ideally you want to aim for GO(Argus trinket) and Fanged singed off the hound.
Actually, high ilvl EoC will be better than fanged for purely ST with no switching.
bb cream bababa
yeah im gearing this guy up via lfr aka (aids) so that i can get into normal and start stabbing shit their
what up my rogue boyz

I am doing.more dps with feet + raven than shoulders + feet.. prob doing something wrong

i dis discord for some game
yeah we discuss hello kitty adventure gameplay
@strange python I know the feeling, I done that on my shaman 😂 M+ will be your best friend for time being as well
Who are you 
one fat nutarooney my dood

😂 💯 🍴
u smokin doinks are yo
howd you know zempai
We don't use the forbidden spoon emoji in here.
Skrrrt?
And Notter the anti bully bully will come down on you.
🥄
gasp
Well, this took me by a surprise.
anyone wanna play sum good a$$ Kahoot
but thats ok
only warning you're getting
ill take that PB M&M
Let's "pin" mizu's new booty 🍆
Where should we take this kind of discussion again @keen inlet? 
memes belong in #off-topic
I was just gonna click that
Obviously.
unless they're sin
is alacrity actually a thing for assassin now or is it just a meme? Heard some people talking about it, but very few using it
@viscid helm help this man see the light
I just scrolled through top 500 sin parses on M Argus... one sin rogue using alacrity
Since I been using alacrity, my env buff been up nearly all of the time, so insane energy regen with T21 overall and extra regen from the haste.
so if your mastery and crit is high enough, could be worth it, its only simming just 1% dps difference than TB but feel more smooth
sims about 10k difference from TB with boots/bracers for me and i dont have to worry about weird timing when im not playing bleed
@fleet whale yes its a thing, but not for everyone and not every fight
has jhon came to the darkside?
but for some fights its really close to TB build
yes, but DON changed my name to red
Seems more like personal preference if anything
I was yellow
Should be 99% uptime on EP/Env/2pc with no mechanics
hence my thing in sub saying it was viable when comparing it to something other than dfa
lmao
What Flowi said, its nearly up for me all of the time
I don't even need to pool energy anymore prior to KB.
its just up 👀
you arent wrong
i want so bad for the talent that isnt MFD to be viable
like some weird high uptime build
MFD? you mean DFA?
silly there are only 2 talents in that row, mfd is for pvp subs and dfa for pve subs
Master of shadows was good pre-7.2.5
i thought this new tier for sub, as terrible as i knew it would be, would favor MFD over DFA
at least the old iteration of the four piece anyway
master of shadows got changed and nerfed to pie ces
go ww or roll home
high t20 is still big dick
Ew
thats fair. my spriest is like 960 but man if tanks misplace a mob or something rip the parse
Yeah my sp doesn't have nearly enough haste
shadowpriests always go full 🥄 if the boss is moved during their voidform, worse than ravagers or poisonbombs
if leveling and entry gearing wasnt literal hell my frost mage would be fun
I am thinking maybe mage next expac, with rogue alt. GM isn't getting me to play pally monk or druid so I can do all the things on one toon.
Sounds good to me 
i like keeping my rogue at least sort of geared
because they're never 'bad' even if the damage isnt top tier
they're like resto shammies.
resto shammy and hpal in prog is so nice
looks like sin rogue in m+ to me
shaman in general in m+ is dumpster tier
True
ele is good ish but you just die
All of their 3 specs
Rip
But yeah main reason I’m considering hunter is cuz ranged is way better for m+
hunter best ranged too
isnt focused so much on casting
fire mage would be fun but i had the mechanic of casting mid cast
Druid is trash
Feral always sucks
Boomie is boring
Resto is good
Guardian is good but I don’t like tanking
mop boomy was fun
sounds like every spec in mop was fun
always see a "_____ was fun in mop"
if you had the capacity for 35 or so keybinds yes
i played shit with little keybinds
Mop was
Probably the best expansion
that is just the new thing people say today... MoP had some great classes though
mop had best boss-design in all its raids
My top 3 are mop wod and wotlk in no particular order
i miss it 😦
Wonder if I should go shoulders/boots...
WoD top three? Sure the raids were really nice
but there was only two tiers of them....
i honestly thought shoulder boots would be they way to go when antorus came out
I don’t give a ratass about anything but raiding
give it another actual raid tier, and wod becomes great
more energy gen = more cd reduction for vend
It only had 3 raids
But theh were 3 very good raids
Brf is in my top 5 best raids of all time
I thought HM was meh personally but i loved BRF and HFC
NH best raid this expac
If you think about the timeline of ToT to HFC
change my mind
Helya was cool
Feral sometimes tops, depends on patch.
Boomie might be boring but they're consistently a top ranged spec
bear is good
resto is good
¯_(ツ)_/¯
@keen inlet when was dera top?
Brf
Feral*
I never said top
Feral sometimes tops
although for a while they were in late wrath iirc...
I like Antorus and NH, ToS was annoying, EN was too easy, and ToV was too short
Antorus is boring as fuck
and then in cata, but they were tough to play then iirc
Antorus is trash
anyway
Two bosses
my point is
ToS was alright
Druid is consistent yeah
druid can play all roles and they're never the worst in any role
But I don’t enjoy boomie
they might not be best
consistently bad is still consistent
but they're never worst
Not according to aggregate scores
I want proof
But meh
“Proof”
You're making a pretty bold and sweeping claim there
It’s not about dps
exactly
if you gotta put "proof" in quotes, it's not a true statement
not empirically anyway
It’s an opinion
or technically.
and we all know technically correct is the best kind of correct
-Futurama
Sub rogue is the worst Melee in Antours 😄 j/k j/k
Backed up by te amount of ferals in early kills
Opinions are like feelycrafting Tom.
Can you sim your opinion tom?
If you’re gonna base what classes are good by the damage they make
Then you don’t know how the game works
Lmao
I think dk is probably worse
i pretty sure feral is the spec balance goes for ST cause Balance ST is terrible
dks are good as heck
I mean the only thing rets have going for them is bubble
They are about as bad as feral now
rets are still good for progress because ppl will die
Do you agree that ferals are the worst melees jack?
YOU NO USE F WORD HERE
definitely not
"feelycrafting"
Who do you think is the worst melee then
Dh really swings based on tier/oranges.
Outlaw is really bad
Surprised on one has said outlaw yet... sure you got cloak and sprint
Survival?
survival
outlaw sub surv '':D'' frost and ud id say are way worse
but it's mobility is meh and you need to be glued on the target all the time
I was considering melee “classes” not specs like that
Not unholy dk?
I was considering the best individual spec of each class even sorry
yeah maybe not ud
They have like ams and that's it
havent seen good uds
And they're slow as fuxk
Sure I’d agree
Boomie is trash this tier
They’re good on two fights and that’s about it
🤔
spriest maybe?
Hunter is p good
Besides afflock? Still afflock
or hunter, for mobility and mechanics
never spriest
if i link my logs can someone analyze them and tell me what I'm doing wrong ?
that 2t coven
spriest can play imonar perfectly and still be shit lmao
Mages are still a solid ranged class
probably afflock>mage>hunter no?
the onyl thing hunter brings over mage is playing BM
And damage
noobe how do you feel about dropping to 5 BB for a rupture trait and 8 ilvl lmao
i feel bad that i wont this relic that i cant use
I put in a Malch/mass/Shock +5ilvl. and gained 0.1%
it was bis bis bis. and still not much up
enjoy. smooth mediocre sailing
Im running exang in M+ now. so much nicer. I just vendettafuck the priority trash, and do king deeps on the boss.
let the ret pull 8-10M on trash.
i ran that a few weeks ago
Ele for AOE is a lot of fun, Ele on single target not as much
we normally run 2 aoe 1 st.
its better than trying to play shoulderpoison tbh
yeah. shoulder poison just leaves me dissap.
literally bracer boot for fort trash.
fuck it.
i run with a feral and an afflock usually or an afflock and a frostscythe
vendetta every pack on some nasty mob
i came in like 4M st on some trash mob last night. just poked his ass in.
yeah and you get it like every trash pack
died during the stuns.
vendetta exsang combo
def not ideal, but it is what I do best.
grats. bb is good. not god
3v then Rupture/Malch/Env/BB depending on sim and 2nd row
once you start putting in ruptures, kiss your MPTB good bye
i cant remember how to play it bth
tbh
i just play alacrity instead
went up 60k from yesterday lmfao wow
Not even 2m 😱😏
being a heroic hero is hard work
Wish i could be one aswell :/
Can I just get heroic? kthnx
going casual
isn't the right choice for everyone
but
I think a lot of ppl who complain daily/weekly/every patch
Theres a newish discord for runs for free, but its so swamped I dont think its going to go over well
would enjoy this game a lot more
if they did
@hoary copper yeah. You can only carry so much/many
demand is huge tho.
Yeah idd cant see why ppl keep playing when they obvi dont enjoy it 🤔
Yea I think demand is way more than they thought
i did a bit of mythic this tier and it just wasnt enjoyable, im still on the vet/officer team so like if they're in need of someone ill help but other than that i just heroic/norm and M+ a good bit
just a few things to swap and youll be right there with me.
vers/mast ring for a crit one would be fun
gonna farm m+ this week mayb
idk who changed my name but its oddly close to what it was
thats neat
I want to be a Color to 😕
you are white
what spec are you
Posion ftw!!
I only enjoy Mythic progression
@shrewd oriole great point, Not everyone plays for the same reasons.
Nah just countering your point lol
I didnt mind mythic raiding when I was in college and had time
With my own personal experience
zing
mythic progression is maddening with the wrong group
nothing to counter there, my guy
now I work full time and I dont have the outside time with adulting to really find a group and dedicate it
we're in agreement
mythic prog is fun but with a bad group or a toxic group its 😴
lot of READING COMPREHENSION GOING ON TODAY
I got what you mean
Does "a lot of people" = "everyone"
Playing 2 days mythic is the perfect fit for me and you can stil get last boss down in a decent time line 👍🏻
Don why you doing equations?
@gusty kestrel reroll inc?
If you raid hardcore and you go casual I feel like this game dries up super quick
This is from my experience with friends who went casual
There's actually a ton to do in the game--just depends on what your motivation is.
They either quit or they went hardcore again
Tom has friends, we should pin that
Thank you for getting my life a bit more green @keen inlet 😘
m+ makes that go away i think
I stopped hardcore progression and just learn other classes and their rotations, bout it for me
If you do m+ all day you’re not casual
And that's because for them, the challenge and the prestiege of hardcore are their motivation
but like
If you’re a hardcore player are you really gonna be motivated by achievements or heroic raiding
pet battling is a great example
I don’t think so personally
m+ allows you to still progress but like on your own time i guess
I'm not really motivated for it. But some people are!
yeah right Don, you know you got 100+ pets at max lvl
You’re not understanding my point, maybe I’m not being clear
so I think sometimes people get swept up into this "hardcore/prog raiding is all that matters" mentality (because it's here, strongly, and spread a lot) and they aren't having fun with it
and they keep up because "well, what else is there"
Nothing else
There’s nothin else in this game for hardcore players
tbh if you didn't collect all the possible pets in the game, you didn't finish it
