our legendaries are copy paste legion legendaries
So I guess I didn't notice
our conduits are boring as shit
we had promises from blizz in alpha that weren't kept
ER exists
Sin is basically poor man's legion when you could only equip one legend and no artifact weapon
Give us some new stuff ffs
Yes please go on
I've tried rogue on PTR and it seemed pretty tight to me
there's been no desire to fix sin's aoe problems
Not a long term rogue player though
sub is riddled with bugs all the way to china
Assa is one of the specs which core doesnt need changes. But the others have issues, yet the dev attention is like 25:1 in favor of other classes.
Is ct target capped?
when you say sins aoe problems? what do you mean?
yes
8 targets
If the devs spent half the man hours they do on catering to Shadow Priests they could have covenants balanced before launch
Fok?

also 8
fan of knives is arguably the worst aoe skill in the game
without any borrowed power
Nah I don't want core changes I want something interesting like artifact weapon mini game
its basically a wet noodle
you spin in a circle with a pool noodle
and gamble for cp
that's fok
like if I weren't laughing about how bad fok is
with the target cap, i thought sin would be strong if you could dot shit up
I would be in tears
Pb sucks too
don't get me started on our dots
the dots barely do anything
the dots are bad
Well at least you aren't feral right
oh really? more than just a tuning issue?
well the tuning issue
Yea well all the bleed borrowed power gone
is that poisons are good
and if you make bleeds good
you nerf 80% of the design space
that blizz has hollowed out for conduits and legendaries
the only way we have to scale aoe in SL is the poison conduit
yeah
which is essentially just poison knives from legion
except this time we don't have omegabusted PB
so
on live, sin in m+ doesn't function without SS and corruptions
you go SS and exped for big cleave, or SS/EB with crit for aoe
Very true
without SS, garrote is shit
without EB, fok is shit
rupture has always been shit
so what you're left with
Haha
is poison scaling through conduit
Man you must really be in the swamp
I'm the swamp monster
doesn't do much
I actually thought it felt pretty okay I didn't realize the swamp was this deep
I'm notorious for only sleeping 4-6 hours a day
and answering every single question in here for the other 20 hours
It's only the start of SL beta, games gonna be alright and things will be tuned for sure tho
:^)
well, my other char is feral. so anything is better than that
there's some sub pepegas that show up in my holy land of sin
and claim master assassin will be great in m+
but don't realize
f..f..wha- ?
Well is it convenient that I prefer outlaw for M+ , I wanted to try rogue to have multiple specs
yeah 100% crit for 5s on g1 g2 g3 r1 fok is incredible
But mult specs in Shadowlands is kind of cringe
great use

So uh whispyr
g1 g2 g3 bs1 bs2 r1 bs3
have u like
i only want to play sin, i just hope it becomes viable in m+
7 seconds
considered fae
of setup
tbh if SBS stays untuned (it won't) i would too

its too good
Lol ppl aint get shit that he would be dead anyway x)
i expect buffs for the 2 bad ones but who knows
er well, maybe 3 depending on how flag is for sin
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
If you think the class salt is rich now just wait for the tuning pass when the dread sets in that they really didn't plan to fix anything before launch
Which is almost a month away from today
well
we're all waiting for heroic week tuning anyway
so I don't really care too much for how things go live
ye idk why people expect tuning to be done before launch, it never is
you can go back and look at heroic week hotfixes every xpac launch
they're hilarious
affliction got like a 15% buff after heroic uldir week

indeed, hilarious is the word
blizzard's tuning before logs come out
is actually horrendous
and even then, they can't get it right
all 3 rogue specs after heroic week in highmaul got buffed by 15-20%
Yeah but when have they had to balance all that with legendaries and covenants in the first tier
the last 2 expansions
BfA I don't agree
legion was legendaries + full class reworks
bfa was azerite + essence
shadowlands is legendary + conduit + covenant
I said first tier
I can't remember any overbearing changes to classes happening in uldir
that crippled an entire spec for 2 years
I remember Uldir pretty well :)
I'm just saying they're basically going to need to have things vaguely balanced on soulbinds, covenants, legendaries, and spec basis by mythic week
yes
That's a fragile tower
and you think they will ?
and they're not going to do that
No guys I'm saying I don't lol
because they haven't gotten things right that were half as complicated
I'd be happy if they fixed most of the bugs by mythic week
They couldn't get BfA right and the only thing they had to design was the classes and some tier set bonuses on azerite gear
that was a long read, morning fellow sinner!
zul
the open wound is still here guys pls

never bring spec back in line
let it fester and rot
give it a legendary that doubles its dps in alpha
fotm rerollers jump on hype train
channel turns into a mess
so many blue named pepegas
nerf spec
repeat
Am I an ok reroller if I want to play outlaw mostly
and then the tier before that:
design fight amazing for multidot
barely nerf multidot specs
multidot specs still insane on fight
i'm not bitter

Outlaw?
if you're in here and half more than 3 brain cells you're good in my book

Yeah I like cleave number spam
I'm a simple man
Subtlety feels kind of obnoxious to play spamming shadow strike and evis non stop
I accept on 3 simple questions:
are you wholesome
are you smart enough to understand basic reasoning
did you delete your demon hunter

I'm actually rerolling off DH
im all 3 at once
An actual classic
DHs 
class shaming
DH has been my primary alt a few times
lmaoo
rip
thats insane
Well look at my roles I just clicked them all
how this is accurate
yeah but you're blue

So as much as i understand hatin on class fotmrollers but wth is goin on in here over spec hatin?

I don't know how to unblue
pls don't ban me meanspyr
whats going on in here over spec hatin?
i have a dh 
Also I should be more specific
its a mess
Ay ye its trashcan
I'm a vengeance main looking for reroll options
sub the spec is fine
I dont like havoc
Hello, i'm Navi and i fucking hate Outlaw because it can burn in a trashcan for all i care

I'll start sending the brain dead fel hammers from sub to assa now
And I've never participated in the dh discord
Honestly I should have just said I play tank
probably for the better
Wait
there is other shit then dh tank?
I forgot DH gets weird glares from every other class discord
You can play sub with a Walmart mouse
I prefer water melons
Do you guys know how to unblue my name
lmaoo
not sure
remove sub
I clicked them all thinking this discord worked like balance
#bot-spam
go to #bot-spam and type !subtlety

@balmy condor whispuw do you have mowe infowmation about fwaggewation?
wrong colour tho Kiri

^ that made me cringe
Koffing pls no
its glorious
The only weeb here is Weebspyr
gotta ask him in his own language
ah
nah its fucking garbage
Rolling night fae?
I'm out
SBS or gtfo
SBS nerf when
Just to fuck with Wobspyr
i'll believe that when i see it
pin it
what the fuck is SBS is that the bone spike?
I have venthyr and fae locked in across my chars, now I just need to find a necrolord and one.. uuuh.. last one
I'll eat my sock on stream
ye, bone spike
i haven't figured out an alt yet so idk what covenant they'll be
I'll eat my sock on stream
@balmy condor @shrewd night pin it
Make a monk alt
What do I get to do if you dont eat your sock whisp?
i'll have enough fun being animation locked with shadow vault ty
Ban him from the disc


Echowing wepwamand

ah
Weebs who dont eat socks gets confined to sub for life.
i was lowkey expecting to get timed out there tbh
I like it ๐
and somehow still better than wowgen and sub
Also how is outlaw bad being a pirate is based
no bones shall be rolled on this day
I'm not familiar with the intraspec rogue lore
the lore is super easy
they're too outlaw for us
sub is edgelord and fotm rerollers
outlaw are warrior wannabe's and gambling addicts
sin is comfy slow spec where we just vibe like chads
Your name is blue and I've learned that means you're inferior to me
fucking gambling addicts
what was sub before its transformation into fotm reroller
My name is blue cause sub spec is my favourite
dont confuse me with fotm fuckers and havoc dh rerolling for some light
ty

sub before alpha was respectable weirdo's that stuck to what they loved even when it was unplayable
i dont even post in sub channel
shits give you aids
Sub before fotm was the leather gimps hobbyist club
which is mega admirable
I was forced to main Sin all BfA
"forced"

i was going to try it until i simmed and i went from 120k to 86k
That was a choice you made
then said nah
dont say "forced" lmao
Have you tried sub
wait
forced cause i didnt want to play it
played it anw cause it was the most relevant spec for mythic ?
is whisp legit a gm?
Fekin cassuals
its common knowledge at this point
Which guild?

So I know what to avoid
Rerolling to na if you guys want a DH for Sl
Pre avoided at birth
feels good
I wanted to roll a DPS this expansion but retain some control over encounters and I thought rogue was pretty good with that
in m+ maybe
Yeah I mainly play mythic plus
What did you reroll from?
our raid utility is overstated by everyone in existence

Reroll from Veng+other tanks


cloak doesn't work on 75% of mechanics
its okey its only Veng Shiennar
Feint doesnt work
i can shroud the melee on pull for uptime
What do you mean feint doesn't work
utility 


Honestly I'm so numb to seeing classes complain about their viability
we're viable
After spending time in peak of serenity
well
Fekin Memespyr
the one thing you won't get here compared to peak
Peak 
We can soak 1 thing
is babylonious pings every 20 minutes
I need like a list of feintable mechanics each expac now cause its very not obvious what is and isnt feintable baseline
tbh I've thought about a google doc with cloak evasion and feint
I miss no cd feint spam with legy legs
Yeah but a lot of stuff i assumed counted as aoe doesnt
I chose rogue as my potential reroll because it ||feels comfy||
yes pls Whisp
COMFY
do it
Streamspyr i smell profit here
Rogue is life, nobody gonna say the opposite here mate

lmao
just play elusiveness
I need cheat to carry me
^
Fucking sub only google docs 
I joined almost all the class discords and could never find a spec that just vibes
Is sin the vibe spec?
we vibe hard
Rogue is a vibe alone so
If you ever need help with openers
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
garrote vanish vendetta
idk man, rogues vibe and this is the only discord where toxic pokeemanz toss out dummies
Yeah some of the other classes are just full on self hate and simultaneously extremely defensive
because we love you

koffing doesn't love anyone
If this is what I can expect from rogue players then this is probably the one
||shiennar send logs so I can rat on your guild mates some more||

hahahaha
koffing please, I can't delete messages, I'm too weak, send help
I hope we get a fight like shad in Nathria
i want to meme the shit out of my openers next tier

nathria has 4 patchwerks

Should I be Pogging at these openers I'm not sure yet
Yeah they look elite
Not eveyone can handle my genius
only 300iq people understand them
so the other thing you should know
you should not 
I've never seen such confidence

he's just practicing for pvp
I'm usually very friendly and wholesome
so navi decides to make me mad
out of all things
next level of toxicity is reached
I have to take my anger out on my mods 
You don't listen to my gachi, you don't like my openers, what's next you don't like me in your chat? 
Damn
damn




Did we get any info on prepatch in the last few days?
release candidate went on ptr, other than that no
The last thing i saw was that blizz said that pvp season will end "soon"
Ive banked my cash on 6th
it's almost definitely 6th at this point, yeah
you meant 7th
I just want BfA to end asap
NA 
idk NA brain
3 weeks of prepatch is a weird amount of time tho
with 2 weeks of prepatch content
2 weeks of daily quests that is 
enough time to (prepatch spoilers duh) ||kill nathanos a bunch||
As opposed to the next 2 years of daily quests
I'm down for dailys in SL
atleast we don't know the zones there
flying around in icecrown for the 3 millionth time
Forgot to check answer previously but anyone know if Shiv will be in rotation for any spec in SL?
yes
shiv rank 2 at level 56 is a weaker toxic blade
so it'll be on cooldown just like toxic blade now
for the other specs, no
have you simmed with and without it Whispyr?
beta sims
So when do i press Shiv, Exang and Echoing Reprimand

Hmmm, will it toxic bladebe removed or will we be playing with toxic blade and shiv?
PTR sims
since the change is much weaker than the actual toxic blade
Toxic blade
toxic blade got replaced by alacrity

Ah
Atleast they buffed shiv
@normal olive dw u press shiv as opening skill, then sbs, garrote vanish cheap sbs rupture exsang
ez
so it does 6 dmg instead of 3 
giga\
exsangu is 1st Koffing, sorry to disappoint
But how do i press Bonespike when i go Kyrian 
u go to bastion and click the other covenant
^
yeee
Sepsis uwu
Since i don't rly do m+ i'm going with the one that looks the most fun for raid 
literally hard yeeting rogue if they change/nerf sepsis
Echoing reprimand?

what if they buff it again
But you get an owl 
Bonespike pretty much only viable choice atm right?
for now
for now yes, expect changes
Ahyt, what seems to be second best atm?
Did the smart people do sims for flogglinggoose yet?
Fwaggewation
flogglinggoose take it or leave it
Is this something we currently have or is it new?
it's new, afaik it still doesn't work

Shivspyr i wanted Flogglinggoose
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: https://github.com/SimCMinMax/WoW-BugTracker/labels/Rogue
Fucking delete that spell pls
my fkin simcraft won't rebuild
lol @ that small difference it does now tho
so I can't sim flag

You do press Shiv off cd, don't you? 
I like flags ๐ฉ
TB did more damage than Mutilate and 30%, now it does 1/4 of the damage of Mutilate and 20%

Just looking at that, not shivving has a wider range, meaning there is a timeline where I don't have to press it

Cli not gui 
most of the theorycraft nerds run cli
I run gui
but I thought gui might be the issue
turns out
its not
ah

Its just your willpower
Gui is bis for people who cannot use computers like me

graphical interface vs command line interface
gui is the simcraft you download from the webpage
Cli still spits out html outputs right
I prefer the letting other people do sims method
I like to do my sims

what if you rename it to fwagewwation
and fucking scuff it up with 200 diffrent sims because i only have 300k 
just rebuild it, its ez

xD
no need to do sims when you're a part of this discord 
How could you simulate openers like yours
You don't sim them
that would be my last up yours if I ever worked at wowhead. Weebify their entire database.
lmao
You go to a boss, and just get a stroke and hit your keyboard
Google DeepMind

aaaaaaaaah
Now that's a 22nd century opener
@shrewd night I'm running a secret operation atm to learn simulationcraft, not because I want to help theorycraft, but because I'm trying to get in at noxxic. That way I can weebify their entire class guides, to reflect the garbage they truly are

sounds like a plan
its the long con
yeah, you get it from wowmeta instead
Nah, get them from wowmeta
the best source of information
AYYYY


I wanted to link it
Oh real talk wtf is wowmeta
Shit tier site
oh he's pure of the soul
iteral garbo
Yeah I gotta see this
wowmeta

Hmh yes garrote is not on cd let's press it again
Bis server? 
I wanted to say something about spreadsheets and tierlists, but I think most of them are members of this discord 
cause that guy is in bdg
tierlists in general are just bait this early
and if you need a tier list
raider.io and warcraftlogs
provide you with more than enough info
whispyr what is best covenant
Scryer >:c
no
There is no way you really do openers like this
fuck Navi, pls
koffing how much do I have to pay you to give me green so I can delete this mans messages
do you want the short answer or long answer?
idk give me the short answer
No
"no"
"nooooooooooo" long aswer xD
that CLF gave me cancer actually
foreverguy would call it "room temperature"
hahaha
Can't wait for SL where i raid from the start 
All the Navi openers
If i find a guild that is 
Starting to make sense now
if you confuse even one new rogue with your openers at the start of the expac navi
I will wring you neck like a wet towel



Dunno
i've seen worse
i just turn my brain off and let fate decide what key get's pressed
oh Im sure theres worse
Sometimes it's just as simple as "oh i didn't use vanish yet"
3 seconds into the fight
xD
That's what i do in m+
Sepsis is going to raise your power level exponentially

more subterfuge uptime
more garrotes YES
wait until he runs shadowdust and can double kidney the opener
i allready pugged 9/12 mythic without my furry friends
Shadowmeld?
Imagine my power with furry friends 
Night elf fae rogue
We did everything besides ilgy, cara, nzoth
oh also @final saffron lethal poisons 15 doesn't help shiv's case much 
shiv 
60 dps.....
2% 
so spamming garrotes is good in the opener? garrote works like ignite?
yes

of course
ahh that's what i was doing wrong
you're all dead to me
In Shadowlands you will be able to use sepsis for a cleaner rolling garrote
Navi said so
no stop
hold up real shit now

@balmy condor the only one taking this discord seriously 
if we get something like SS in SL
@balmy condor how much do you like doing really stupid sims
yo the amount of dm's I've gotten from people who took memes seriously
hello is this dead spec channel
because i have a curiousity
we could time Sepsis in a way to save the first vanish
and get 3 perfect garrotes 
what stupid shit do you want me to sim mata
ugh
lmao
that's not a stupid comparison
Well i've been awake for 25 hours i'm tired good night peeps 
figure out the % difference Whispyr!
the memes will stop when he goes to sleep

Simp
are the sims with using Shiv off cooldown or can you actually sim it with using it more "optimally" with energy pooling for Envenoms and stuff? I don't really understand how the sim works
actions.cds+=/shiv,if=dot.rupture.ticking&(!equipped.azsharas_font_of_power|cooldown.vendetta.remains>10)
that's the line

!guide
Its very hard to make statements about stat trends in the current patch.
Please use a simulation to generate results for your personal gear situation.
but its casting on cd as long as rupture is ticking and vendetta is >10 second out
so shiv is only used if rupture is on the target, you have the trinket proc and also vendetta is on cooldown
with other words on cooldown :d
forget the trinket thing
just on cooldown if:
- rupture is ticking
- vendetta has >10 seconds left until it comes up
the other thing is the comparison doesn't really work since you're picking a talent and not using it, shiv is just a base thing
but whatever, just a curiousity thing
well having spells in your rotation that barely affects your dps is just ... you know
Can you make the shiv APL account for navis garropener
is the pins updated with flag for venthyr?
no
Shiv takes a "main keybind" since it's used that often and barely does anything
we don't have flag sims yet
spoiler: probably still loses to SBS
ye
lmao
but SBS will prob get nerfed right?
You can probably be as sure of that as any other potential balance change
wasn't Sbs nerfed a little bit already? for PvP atleast
@low girder
that's about expected i think
5%!
interesting
lmao
For monk instead of nerfing Fallen order they just buffed night fae and kyrian abilities this beta patch
hold on
am i triple NP
So there is a decent chance you're right koffing
oh so that's with DD
yep
prolly bumps it a decent amount
yup
maybe?
can do
dashing prolly gives it a good amount too
Doubt we will see sweeping covenant changes for a while though, they need to adjust leggos and actual class mechanics first
so idk
lmao that dmg difference
you guys like my cloak?
yuh
it just feels like shit
Isn't the tb part of shiv a sl level thing or was that changed?
What's r1 shiv doing for assa?
20% nature damage buff
20% nature dmg
r1 is nothing
R1
r1 is just shiv
from 7 years ago
So prepatch is with no tb effect
ye
yep
not like it matters much
as we can see
but its something
also mata
alch/engi
you fucking sweaty tryhard
jesus
lmao
been that since wod
except that brief period where i dropped alch for herb because starlight rose
I miss starlight tbh
i don't think the guild i was in misses paying 200g per rose
i think we blew 2m just on flasks/pots
I know that current build is without tb but without the haste, all that's left is 2 min cd vendetta/vanish/ma
in like a month
correct
