#

I thought sin was still higher

hazy breach
#

Well i wasnt factoring in the assa nerf

ornate current
#

So sin should be 1531 and DS 1532 lol

hazy breach
#

Sub is good Surebud

ornate current
#

Rhis is with the bugfix

half comet
#

is this updated on !fuu?

ornate current
#

Im playing sub anyways just wann a cope

golden totem
#

wait

#

what happened to get us so back

vestal escarp
#

more cps more sod more dmg

hazy breach
#

Patch is good, but also the supercharger bugs got fixed

lilac stag
#

shadow dmg supercharger

ornate current
#

Sin should get nerfed more ngl

#

But we will take it

lilac stag
#

cT is too strong but what do I know

wind canopy
#

Damn, we got content scath now

vestal escarp
#

spatter is too strong, Ct is good imo

lilac stag
#

the fact you barely spread rupture on its own in multi target is an issue to me for a dot spec

vestal escarp
#

hmm but scent has the lead

balmy notch
#

hi quick question im finding some probably outdated info on using backstab and even shuriken storm and black powder during dance to trigger more danse macabre, im assuming this is df stuff and we just go on about our rotation in dance as normal?

vestal escarp
#

and if scent says 5 the sin rog obeys

hidden isle
#

How do you track supercharger?

#

Combat log shenanigans?

vestal escarp
#

your cps turn blue

strange chasm
#

So like both sub and sin are now perfectly fine in raid. @hazy breach You still playing sin or sub now?

hidden isle
#

Ya ty

#

For wa

vestal escarp
hidden isle
#

Ah brother

#

Ag*

vestal escarp
#

well for now the only way to get a sod buff would be to press sod so you could track sod buff appearance

fair stump
#

Does updating a WA override the changes we've done to it?

hidden isle
#

Ya ima just try cl i don't I'll even notice the lag

#

I'm sure something shows

#

But ya tracking sod might be good enough anyway

hazy breach
#

You dont really need to track it much either tbf

hidden isle
#

Yea true

vestal escarp
hazy breach
#

Would probably play sub for everything besides rashanan and brood

#

If we recleared

hidden isle
#

Just now swapping to sub so idk ill prbly just dl some was

hazy breach
#

probably even sub on those two tbf, just vibing

#

Transmitter toy procced on dummies prayge

#

(as in the rare that drops it procced)

pliant topaz
hazy breach
#

It didnt back when i checked

#

Only double dips on assa mastery iirc

pliant topaz
#

how does it work on something like sikran double burn ?

#

like it does more damage to the main target because the other target is taking also 100% more damage? and then it doubles that damage?

#

not sikran

#

silken

hazy breach
#

Probably gets double benefit if i had to guess

#

But not sure

pliant topaz
#

im curious might check some logs actually

bleak wind
#

im just on some copium that we get some bug fixes with what realz said

hazy breach
#

We did get supercharger fixed atleast

bleak wind
#

ye but that was a temporary thing, doesn't count

strange chasm
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
hazy breach
#

Its like a +1% gain up from that since it works now Surebud

bleak wind
#

I guess thats true

strange chasm
#

wait sub DS is like even with sin?

#

aint no way

near rivet
#

it feels like a step closer to fix DN - shadowed finishers interaction

Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs

wicked joltBOT
plain zephyr
#

Does anyone use Luxthos' weak aura pack? It doesn't appear to track Symbols of Death with the three charges change. Does anyone know if that's going to be updated?

#

When I use SoD. It just shows it on CD and grayed out.

lucid jackal
#

If u have any weakaura skills u could just make Ur own

lunar galleon
#

I use that pack but I'm not good enough to track SoD so I just use the above cast sequence macro to bind it to my other CDs

#

Sometimes they hide additional WAs in the pack though, that you can just turn on

#

I'm not at my computer right now or I'd take a look, apologies

golden totem
plain zephyr
#

Okay. I'll try to update again

fair stump
#

Does updating the WA override the changes we've done to it?

plain zephyr
#

I deleted the old one and installed the new one. So I did have to re-do my changes. So I'm not sure

golden totem
strange chasm
#

@pliant topaz you played sub in keys yet? very pog?

pliant topaz
#

its fun/strong

#

but u cnat ge tin keys

#

highest key i timed was 13 siege

#

as sub

strange chasm
#

I think sin silence is stilljust kinda op

!fuu

wicked joltBOT

#

Do we still use Blubbling Wax?

golden totem
#

Yes on 1 weapon

tribal blade
#

damn blizz is actually starting to be more on top of sub stuff

wispy bolt
#

!wa

wicked joltBOT
tribal blade
#

although it's kind of weird they do these stealth bug fixes w/o saying anything

pastel rampart
#

if they announce the fix that would be admitting they made the bug in the first place :^)

tribal blade
#

i dunno i feel like they would want to be more vocal about it

#

because it gives the impression "we see and hear you and are doing something to help"

#

not complaining at all, i just thought the optics looks so much better when you announce stuff

ornate current
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
old socket
#

any word on the new trinkets or gear from brd or?

hazy breach
#

They all stink Surebud

tribal blade
#

and true, you guys are ON TOP of shit in here

#

@pliant topaz did i just see you queueing your key

pliant topaz
#

13 NW? yea

tribal blade
#

haha nice

#

#

Didn’t they fix it earlier

hazy breach
# tribal blade and true, you guys are ON TOP of shit in here

Theres a bot that recognizes whenever blizzard pushes any updates to spelldata stuff. Bug fixes are often hard to tell from the spell data but like today we saw evis getting something changed we can just go ingame and try it out to see if it was fixed

hazy breach
tribal blade
#

didn't know that

crisp pond
#

What was making Evis hit so much harder then it does even after being fixed the other day

#

I was hitting 3mil on full pvp enemy’s

#

In arena

tribal blade
#

oh my god whispyrs posts are amazing

hazy breach
#

He loves assa being fotm

lilac stag
#

Did they lose what 1% game over

crisp pond
#

@hazy breach lol

tribal blade
#

i posted his latest thing in my guild disc

tribal blade
#

i love it

crisp pond
tribal blade
#

i'm playing the standard wowhead sin M+ build but i dropped x1 supercharger for x1 subterfuge

#

because i like having a bit more time to spread

crisp pond
#

I’m asking why this was happening because I didn’t see anything bugging me to hit this hard but I lost def was doing more then now

tribal blade
#

just in case

lilac stag
tribal blade
lilac stag
#

nah

tribal blade
#

actually let me see what sub feels like on dummies with supercharger fix

lilac stag
#

The damage when it’s important is crazy good

#

we 1 phased first boss of mists.

#

shit just melted

tribal blade
#

yeah sounds about right

lilac stag
#

Most of the pugs I end up in are 1.6-2 phase

tribal blade
#

ok can't actually test on the dummies

#

because the lag on it is unreal

#

losing globals and spell queueing stuff to hell

tribal blade
#

because the fdk was doing like 1.3 mil

#

this group was full of special people though

#

nobody got the seed after 1st boss

#

and then when stuff got pulled through the maze tank didn't pick up aggro and 2 of us died immediately

#

and then in maze tank literally sits the dragon in the heal circle and it almost full heals

hazy breach
#

Stuff like blades and nimble aint working correctly there anyway, go to orgrimmar or stormwind Surebud

hazy breach
#

So did i when i realized the 40% nimble stuff was only in dornogal and open world stuff Cheesin

#

For some reason game works differently there than in instances, phenomenal design

tribal blade
#

wonderful

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

although i think i might have unironically gotten myself kicked from a group for testing sub on the dummies

lilac stag
#

Haha

tribal blade
#

queued into a 13 mists, i swap to sub to smack the dummies and then he disbands the group

barren plume
#

cloak of shadows ignores the sikran blow up shit right? where she has the purple swirl around her and has a knock back

strange chasm
#

Are the ass rogue bug fixes meme nerfs or actually a nerf

hazy breach
hazy breach
#

Kingsbane had 244% crit damage instead of 220% with lethality specced, so kingsbane crits were doing ~10% more damage then they shouldve

strange chasm
#

Does this make sub stonks go through the roof

hazy breach
#

Assa getting nerfed by like 1% doesnt make sub stonks through the roof no

#

But sub is good

pliant topaz
#

sub is great not just good

lilac stag
hazy breach
#

+10% seems pretty god damned juicy

pliant topaz
#

yeha ngl that is uh big big buff

#

they saw critcakes last video

#

felt bad

#

turbo buffed warrior

hazy breach
#

They were downbad on logs too

#

Arms was especially rough because they kept nerfing fury

#

But collateral nerfed arms

pliant topaz
#

yeah that was really dumb actually i lowkey felt bad

strange chasm
#

So still trolling to play sub in keys 😦

#

Waiting for it to be better then sin

pliant topaz
#

not trolling

tribal blade
#

oh my god this shit does feel a million times better

hazy breach
#

Sub is good in keys

#

Its just not the best spec in the entire game like assa is

strange chasm
#

I feel like ST on bosses for ass kinda stinks in keys

#

Whereas sub has to SLAM bosses

tribal blade
#

yeah you can use sub to absolutely nuke bosses for sure

hazy breach
#

Sub demolishes bosses ye

pliant topaz
#

^^ i can def hold my own

#

as sub

lilac stag
#

Sub doesn’t have to. It does slam.

tribal blade
#

if you run with people who have a fuckton of aoe

#

you can sac some aoe for more ST

lilac stag
#

sub back to being really lit at killing important shit

hazy breach
#

I still find it odd how sub and outlaw have several talents that make them more tanky yet the only thing assa gets is twice as much leech from leeching poison

#

Obv iron wire is strong for keys but its still weird

lilac stag
#

glass cannon

tribal blade
#

it's incredible to hit a supercharger coup

#

and watch the cd of sectec get cut in almost half immediately

#

the next thing i want to see sub get is less shitty energy outside of dance

stone sedge
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
pliant topaz
tribal blade
#

just timed a 13 SV 🙂

pliant topaz
#

oh dude thats a big one nice

#

im legit not getting in keys i gott apush my own and its just aids

vagrant fulcrum
#

but I don't think it matters, people just play it cus easier / more damage

tribal blade
tawdry geyser
#

has anyone else had their coup de grace become permanent after killing the add on last boss NW? just happened to me now, no clue how I managed it lol

warm marlin
steel horizon
#

permanent as in its stuck on 4 stacks but wont proc? or permanent as in you just keep using coup?

tawdry geyser
#

it seemed like I just kept using coup, buffs was showing 4 stacks the whole time after I flew back up top

steel horizon
#

it could jsut be the bug where its stuck on 4 stacks but you keep using evis

#

cus they fixed the one that you're talking about

tawdry geyser
#

yeah it may have just been evis, either way was super weird, hadnt run into it before lol

wispy bolt
#

Well I’ll be damned, we are in an okay place

vagrant fulcrum
#

highkey

#

i'd say best spec is enh

round latch
#

rotten feels increadibly smooth btw

#

idk,i think melee has no spot in ''higher'' keys

#

but dont rly push that high

vagrant fulcrum
#

I think enh is better than ele

#

in keys

round latch
#

im pretty sure ele does more dmg

vagrant fulcrum
#

ele just has flashier max burst on mass pulls

vagrant fulcrum
#

just on really big pulls

#

biggest gap is in st, enh st is unhinged in dungeons

round latch
vagrant fulcrum
#

ele is weak

vagrant fulcrum
#

im around 1m as sin

#

granted he got pi but still, 1.4 on st with target switching and downtime is crazy

round latch
strange chasm
#

I feel like my ST in dung as sin is kinda lacklustre

vagrant fulcrum
#

all things considered

strange chasm
#

I mean in aoe no one is touching me

#

but on bosses meh

vagrant fulcrum
#

we 4 manned last boss, mage had to go

#

he was on like 1.3, I forgot what I did

#

but it was lower

round latch
#

mage overall isnt that high yeah

vagrant fulcrum
#

consistently can't compete in dungeon st

round latch
#

but has prio,specially arcane

vagrant fulcrum
#

issue is enh is no slouch on aoe

#

and unlike ele it's a 2min class

round latch
#

yup its sub for shamans

vagrant fulcrum
#

infact

#

most front page shamans are enh

strange chasm
#

I think sub is pre decent tbh in keys

vagrant fulcrum
round latch
#

cool cool

vagrant fulcrum
#

this is all prenerfs

#

idk how badly the nerfs hit them tbh

round latch
#

something to consider,yeah

vagrant fulcrum
#

but yeah it's pretty much the only spec I can't consistently beat on overall

#

it's v close for sure

#

but I'd say pre-nerf enh is better than sin for key speed

#

and that's only my friend, not random pug enh, they normally suck

warm aspen
#

just tried my first +12 with gb

#

god damn it's so boring and stat check lol

round latch
#

there is no point to push above 10s tbh

#

and as a melee is not rly fun

warm aspen
#

11s are getting to the point where i cant send cds when they come up

#

bcuz mobs are too squishy

round latch
#

im sending on cd idc

warm aspen
#

LUL

#

based

vagrant fulcrum
round latch
#

but its mostly a route issue and how tanks execute it

warm aspen
#

but yeah it kinda sucks that in high end m+ ur literally just playing the base dungeon

#

with no real mechanic

tribal blade
#

how in the fuck have i now failed 3 13 mists

#

and timed the first 13 SV i tried

warm aspen
#

and then each boss fight is like 10 years long

warm aspen
#

interrupts so hard for me

tribal blade
warm aspen
#

ah i see

candid field
#

you guys find people for your pugs? been waiting for a tank for 15+min

round latch
warm aspen
#

12 keys fill up surprisingly fast tbh

tribal blade
tribal blade
#

because 11s are easy to time

candid field
#

no one signs up for 10s

tribal blade
#

and then you hit 12 and it becomes a wall

round latch
warm aspen
#

yeah i felt it in that gb

tribal blade
#

blue men everywhere

vagrant fulcrum
#

shaman somehow has 3 top tier specs at the same time

#

it's lit

round latch
#

shaman is everywhere this season yup

tribal blade
#

deserved tbh

#

after what has happened to them for so long

vagrant fulcrum
tribal blade
vagrant fulcrum
#

ok?

tribal blade
#

and so has rsham too

vagrant fulcrum
#

bro

#

the spec was insane on both sark and fyrakk

#

and I mean insane

tribal blade
#

yeah true

#

but that's just raid

vagrant fulcrum
#

I can't remember rasz

#

in keys it has been a mixed bag yeah

#

I do remember ele having some really good performance in keys in sl

tribal blade
#

also shammy tuning and attention was truly abyssmal for the longest time

#

they just got flat aura buffs any time they were struggling with 0 thought

vagrant fulcrum
#

the no raidbuff / weak defensives was bad for sure

tribal blade
#

and yeah their survivability was so bad

#

like to the point where during S3 DF my friend wouldn't invite bond to keys even though he's the best ele in the world

#

just because their living was sus

#

but you're right, enhance has had some very good performance in raid

thick field
#

is sub in a decent place right now for both raid and m+? just coming back and seeing where its at

vagrant fulcrum
#

it's just overshadowed by assassination for aoe

thick field
#

Where would you rank it against a ww monk right now? just wondering numbers wise. im playing ww and i feel weak

vagrant fulcrum
#

it's deffo better than ww imo

thick field
#

okay gotcha. is playstyle fun/has it changed much in feeling? i played back at dragonflight s1

vagrant fulcrum
#

it's changed a lot since then

#

you're still pressing the same buttons but they reworked shadowblades and the pace of the spec

#

it's a lot slower than back then

#

you do less damage in dance / outside of dance but a lot more damage in blades + flag

#

shadowcraft makes it so shadow techniques can instantly refill your combo points, so you can end up going finisher > finisher when in cds

#

best advice I'd give is just try it

steel horizon
#

unless you're running RS of course. then your refund comes 1 second after you use your generator

#

that shit is driving me nuts lol

tribal blade
#

yeah if they could fix the rs bug

#

that would be hot

plain zephyr
#

Is Mad Queens only good for Deathstalker?

warm aspen
#

i thought we still had old shadow technique or something xD

#

sitting there randomly getting a cp out of thin air

steel horizon
#

yea its infuriating

tribal blade
#

it's basically good for almost everyone for ST damage

#

because it hits like a truck

plain zephyr
#

Alright, thanks

steel horizon
#

somehow i still have scroll of momentum coming up on top for my 2nd trinket lol

#

Is the main hand dagger for sub supposed to be that pvp wep?

#

in the sim on that spreadsheet

guys, whats even dodgeable with evasion on this season of M+? I died to boralus 1'st boss AOE which i was certain i was going to dodge

#

Does subtlety still need cd spreadsheets now that shadowdust is gone? Hoping the spec is easier to play for my smooth brain

vagrant fulcrum
tribal blade
#

so you can use it for the DR

half comet
tribal blade
#

cloak is trickier to use, it only works on the last ~1 second of the cast

#

that thing is weird

bronze turret
#

Wdym

#

Its cloak that has a 1 sec full immunity

#

Or was that what you meant

pliant topaz
#

thats what he meant yea

thick field
#

am i reading the guide wrong or are you hardly using black powder anymore?

pliant topaz
#

you dont as trickster

#

or rather, barely

thick field
#

seems trickster is the way to go right now too right?

alpine wraith
#

yea it is cool

#

ok just woke up after passing out at like 9 pm

thick field
#

hhow is evisc better tha black powder in like 8 target aoe?

alpine wraith
#

some changes some fixes

#

because of nimble flurry

#

our evis hit hard

#

then cleave

thick field
#

damn yeah i see thhat now okay thanks. yeah i gotta go though and read all these new talents

#

how bad is it to macro shadow blades with flag?

half comet
warm aspen
#

man used dalaran hearth for once, now im missing dfa sub

#

that order hall was goated

alpine wraith
#

what order hall ehehe

warm aspen
#

ah true, first rule of fight club

pliant topaz
half comet
#

wasnt it like 8 targets after it got buffed

#

what changed

pliant topaz
#

some more findings regarding nimble

#

but also its very FW dependant

tribal blade
#

can we just get rid of shadowed finishers

#

i'm so sick of it

alpine wraith
#

same

#

make split dmg disappear

tribal blade
#

the entire spec would just work way better wiht it gone

alpine wraith
#

actually time to make posts on reddit

#

so many bugs and shit

tribal blade
#

it would be a 2 for 1

#

if they just baked shadowed finishers damage into regular finishers

#

they would remove the buggy interactions

#

and our damage would be a lot less rng

#

and also we could BP while using trickster

alpine wraith
#

my biggest gripe is with sec tech

#

so easy if initial hit was all dmg

#

just a BAM

tribal blade
#

as in no clone damage?

alpine wraith
#

yea fuck clones they dont even exist

tribal blade
#

it would make it work better for sure

#

that's another buggy interaction they could get rid of

#

i feel like all evis, bp and sectec damage should be shadow too

#

they could also turn FW back into what it used to be

#

you only get it during dance

alpine wraith
#

also this 30% arpen is ludicrous

young heart
#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
keen dome
delicate ridge
#

You could always keep them for animation/theme sake but yea having sectech dmg not tied to pets would be great

fair anchor
#

we send eviscerate with 3+ CP if we have a supercharger stack right ? or we have to go 6

spark tusk
#

Sub vibes are good rn yah? I’ve heard good things

keen dome
#

Very

tribal blade
keen dome
#

In my opinion, anyway.

spark tusk
#

Big sectecs big vibes

fair anchor
#

ok we just ignore SC then, thanks

keen dome
alpine wraith
#

it gives more dmg and it is cool

keen dome
#

Also Evis does more damage which in turn is nice for trickster. Sub stonks are UP

tribal blade
keen dome
#

Yeah

tribal blade
#

instead of just ignoring sectec's cd until symbols was ready

nimble burrow
#

brothers i am improved again

keen dome
#

Hell yeah, Bac, you blasting

nimble burrow
#

they all dealing with mobs

spark tusk
#

Has it been challenging to predict your sod and dance charges for blades?

nimble burrow
#

how do i delete those things?

keen dome
#

It feels like it all comes up a lot more naturally now (unless it goes on)

golden totem
#

I don't predict I just send and blast

keen dome
#

Longer the fight goes, it does tend to get more awkward. But you have more flexibility now, I feel.

golden totem
#

Quite the opposite of dust but still good vibes

keen dome
#

Also, The Rotten being actually good at buffing BUILDERS versus what PV / LD do.

tribal blade
#

yeah having multiple symbols charges makes everything better

#

more rotten

#

more sectec

#

more 2+4pc

keen dome
#

Yeah

#

I still think Rotten should be a bit higher up - it doesn't feel capstone but instead is doing what PV / LD do way better and more 'fun' but. Really good.

tribal blade
#

my main issue is just our lack of energy outside of symbols

#

still hate it

spark tusk
#

I think I’m almost out of the depths of hell that is envenom WAs and need to get to work on understanding sub enough to make updates

keen dome
#

Yee. The 'ol vigor situation. I would like more energy outside of CD's 'cos it makes doing more consistent damage better, but the Symbols situation does help us maintain more ances, I feel.

spark tusk
#

Even though I think the only thing I can think of is a thing that says what your sod/dance charges will be at blades

#

At current state

#

Obv dance cdr makes it complicated

tribal blade
#

that would be a good WA

spark tusk
#

Need to mess around with it, shouldn’t be too hard

tribal blade
#

something that basically warned you when you have to full stop sending dance+symbols

#

before next cd set

spark tusk
#

And actually play the damn game

tribal blade
spark tusk
#

I’d like

#

Is like*

#

M+ and raid basically the same?

keen dome
#

I need to fix my Superchager WA. Right now it's just overlaying the first 4 combies with chagred borders but it gets weird if i have more than 4.

spark tusk
#

Builds look nearly identical just swapping sf and Imp storm

keen dome
#

Ye

spark tusk
#

Love that

#

Oh also tornado I guess

tribal blade
#

imp sht

#

oh wait do both builds not take it

keen dome
#

Hm, for some reason my very hacky Supercharger solution is broken. I can't imagine why..

spark tusk
#

I don’t understand the build in version

#

I just did it fully custom, there’s a single event you can track

keen dome
#

I was using a pretty basic "If charged combo 1 = 1 then blue border" and now it isn't working.

spark tusk
#

And an api you can call with it

#

For you to 100% understand your charged points

keen dome
#

Nod

#

ER was a lot easier since it was an actual buff I could track haha

spark tusk
#

GetUnitChargedPoints or something if you want to look it up

#

IDN im on my phone rn

keen dome
#

That's really helpful, though. Thanks! I will.

#

Is how I want it to look if a Combie is in the anime zone.

spark tusk
#

Returns a table of points, really you just need the count of the array

keen dome
#

Makes sense, yeah

#

Shouldn't be too hard to fix this.

spark tusk
#

Mmhm

keen dome
#

I'm not sure I need to even track it 'cos I know if i symbols, I get 2.

#

It's so consistent that it's easy to just muscle memory.

#

But it felt like a fun thing to setup.

spark tusk
#

Yeah I didn’t spend much time on it because it doesn’t seem like tracking it matters much

#

At least for sin it doesn’t

#

It’s just more dam

#

More cdr etc

keen dome
#

For Sub, I believe we ideally want to always use one for SecTec for BIG BLAST (and I assume Coup if possible) but ye

#

It's something that's so consistent you can just rotation rule around it to always hit it properly.

hybrid dew
#

Hey just checking in it’s been like 3 weeks since I played are we still bad in M+?

We're considerably better, but not as strong as Assa or other 'meta' picks. I'd personally say Sub is absolutely playable to higher levels now though.

hybrid dew
#

Mind if I asked what exactly changed? Last I played it was still trickster single targ rotation with bp without flawless, is that still the case?

spark tusk
#

Sub is probably a monster on bosses given that you barely have to change anything from your raid build

keen dome
#

We gained a new talent in place of Shadowdust, which gave us +1 Symbol charge per point. So we can now have 3 Symbols of death. There was also a rework to Echoing Reprimand which made it a passive called Supercharger. When we Symbols, we gain 3 anima-charged combie points that buff our next finisher by +3 combies.

#

Also Shadowblades is now 1:30 cooldown instead of 2:00, but lasts 16 seconds instead of 20. Flagellation is still 1:30. So they natrually align now.

#

Trickster is probably still best for keys, too. Nimble flurry does a lot, esp as coup de grace now properly gives us CDR. It actually feels really nice to play with all the other changes on top of it.

keen dome
#

I'd recommend having a look at the 11.0.5 WoWhead guide, @hybrid dew 'cos it's an excellent write-up of it all. But if you wanna play Sub, it's a good time for it imo.

sinful sluice
#

I have question regarding using symbol pre-pull. Is supercharge permanent? If not, when will be the best timing to use it pre-pull?

alpine wraith
#

yes it is perma

#

you use as you res

#

but you can also use it if prepull is at least 17

#

so you also get rotten on 2 strikes

merry agate
#

@alpine wraith just watched your video at work... improved sht and first dance still interchangeble with RS and shadowfocus? Even on trickster? Want to Experiment 🤔

alpine wraith
#

kinda first dance gets weaker as the fight gets longer

#

but it is quite competitive below 5 mins

#

but not shadow focus

#

that one is better for st and in another gate

#

it goes vs improv shuriken storm

#

the contenders for things are for trickster improv sht PE RS and first dance/gloomblade

clever delta
#

Is the trisckter for st way to go?

merry agate
#

Gloomblade 🤔 give it a little personal note with minimal loss xla

alpine wraith
#

trickster and deathstalker are quite close

keen dome
#

Gloomblade, my beloved.. Someday you will be baseline. And that day will go down in history.

alpine wraith
#

but i vibe with not being parried

#

and my people do too

#

hidden raid buff

keen dome
#

hell yeah

merry agate
#

So unseen blade parry protection for whole raid?
Read about it one time nut was only speculation

keen dome
#

Yeah, seems so. Bit of a strange one. I assume it'll get fixed but I imagine it's low priority.

bronze turret
#

It works for everyone?

#

Is fazed active for everyone too then?

#

Would be nuts if everyone just did more dmg

vale pine
bronze turret
#

Fazed?

vale pine
#

only the parry

bronze turret
#

Ok

vale pine
#

which is also "damage" technically

#

for melees

tribal blade
#

i was chatting with one of the warrs on my raid team

#

"BOSS PARRIED MY COLOSSUS SMASH"

alpine wraith
#

ehehe

vale pine
#

its a nice very niche thing

#

tbh

alpine wraith
#

tanks notice it a lot

#

not that niche

keen dome
#

Finally, Sub has a raid buff

vale pine
#

wdym we have speedshroud too

keen dome
#

Damn, true

#

We have a second raid buff. We're eating good.

cloud rover
#

With the Parry

#

The Tooltip says YOUR attacks

tribal blade
#

obviously not intended

keen dome
#

I assume the damage is rogue only but the parry doesn't have the approrpiate flag

#

So everyone is getting it

#

Legit they should just make it work like that. It'd be such a cool QoL buff for the Rogue to bring (Although arguablt you'd then have the issue of trickster being the ONLY raid tree)

cloud rover
#

OR

keen dome
#

(And also making Assa unplayable)

cloud rover
#

Remove parry Okay

keen dome
#

Remove parry 🙏

warm aspen
#

man 12s really are a pain

keen dome
#

Making Rogues have a debuff they can apply, class-tree side, that removes parry would be kinda lit though

warm aspen
#

i swear it has to be a run with no mistakes whatsoeevr

#

can't have a single tank death too, even if u manage to kite the pull and keep it from resetting

tribal blade
#

it sounds unintuitive, but the higher in key level you go sometimes it ends up getting easier because the people are better

warm aspen
#

i kinda wonder how super high end players feel about high keys changing, from mechanics overload with more rooms for error to something that's pretty much just the base dungeon with 10 times the stats

tribal blade
#

like it took me weeks to time a 12 SV, and then i timed the first 13 SV i did

tribal blade
#

much better than before imo

keen dome
#

I'm not a high end player, but: delete challengers peril because I think it's needlessly punishing (or go with the suggestion of Fuu had, I think, of ramping deaths which would be neat)

tribal blade
#

the biggest issue i have is challenger's burden is super toxic

keen dome
#

Yeeee

tribal blade
#

or w/e it's called yeah

warm aspen
#

oh yeah that's certainly a thing

keen dome
#

Burden is 30s, Peril is 15s I think?

#

But it's effectively taking an already huge punishment of death / wipes. And making it so you WILL brick on deaths

tribal blade
#

it does promote good gameplay by punishing deaths heavily, but i still don't like it

warm aspen
#

but also, am i the only one who's kinda sad that we lose the xalatah affix from 12 and on?

#

it's almost kinda boring to be essentially playing higher tuned m0 lol

tribal blade
#

it's a very good thing because it means high keys are the same every week

#

so it completely removes push weeks

#

and dead push weeks

keen dome
#

Less needing to adjust to randomness. Focusing more on learning to play the content better. Def a good change, imo.

tribal blade
#

and you can focus 100% on the dungeon itself

#

over random affixes

warm aspen
#

true

keen dome
#

Yeah

warm aspen
#

and i think they did redesign a lot of the older dungeons a bit right

keen dome
#

I think if they took out Peril and Burden it'd get a lot better.

warm aspen
#

while the new ones legit just feel like small raid fights

#

like CoT first boss

tribal blade
#

"oh it's sanguine/bolstering week, literally can't get any IO for 7 days"

warm aspen
#

oh bolstering

#

fuck me

tribal blade
#

"oh it's bursting week, i have to do keys 12 hours a day for 7 days"

warm aspen
#

LOL

keen dome
#

Ye

tribal blade
#

now you can kinda just jump in whenever

#

the biggest bottleneck is the people you'll be grouping with if you pug

keen dome
#

I really like the affixes on lower keys, too. They're relatively simple and the buffs are nice to elevate people.

cloud rover
#

!bug

wicked joltBOT
tribal blade
#

ngl i don't even know which rotation of the seasonal affix it is this week lol

#

i haven't done anything below a 12

keen dome
#

It's the stun orbs.

alpine wraith
#

yea the blind them aaall

keen dome
#

Well, unless there's no mob near

#

then get sad as blind doesn't do anything

alpine wraith
#

if there is no mob near yea

#

you go into whack a mole cheapshot spreee

#

tab cheapshot tab cheap shot

warm aspen
#

thats why u go dragon!

alpine wraith
#

tauren would be better in that case

#

the hooovers

warm aspen
#

altho one thing im REALLY upset about, how come dragons cant do what the boomkins do!

#

wing flaps!

tribal blade
#

honestly thank god you don't have that cc affix in 12s and higher

warm aspen
#

well yeah 12s and higher u rly need every cc lmao

#

BUT

#

would i get flamed here

#

if i said my least favorite affix was actually quaking lol

#

i have trauma with that affix from tol dagor worgen boss

tribal blade
#

nah there's a reason they removed it from M+

#

it was a super toxic affix whenever there were situations where you absolutely had to stack

#

or be very close to others

warm aspen
#

yeah lol like literally ANY los mechanic

lilac stag
warm aspen
lilac stag
#

the “one shots” or putting pug healers behind really rough on the low end

#

and the death penalty can really fuck you

shell lance
#

Maybe he intended the xal’atath affix bargain

keen dome
#

My experience trying to do a +10 was: wiping on the second boss (-1:15 to the timer), then the run back (-45 seconds to the timer) then fighting the boss again (-4 minutes to the timer). It's needlessly punishing when a full wipe is already a huge punishment. Don't need something so heavy on top of it too, imo.

warm aspen
keen dome
#

Then you've also got how it creates, on the lower end, a very toxic relationship to mistakes where people'll freak out about a single death and ragequit.

cloud rover
#

@tribal blade How much do you sim

#

with your sub

tribal blade
#

no idea, i haven't simmed sub in a while

vale pine
#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

its probably less than 1536M

#

i am sure

cloud rover
#

Left is sin and right sub with same gear

vale pine
#

sub is more sensitive to stats

#

and you rly need transmitter

cloud rover
#

Yeah i only have Skardyns

#

on 639

alpine wraith
#

yea a bit unlucky

sly fractal
lilac stag
cloud rover
#

hmm

#

yeah

#

no way im trying sub as of right now

trim ridge
#

do u need to kill kyvetha in mythic to be able to be dropped in vault?

lilac stag
#

crit value took a dump

alpine wraith
#

for mythic transmitter yes

trim ridge
#

so if u kill for example 4/8 on mm you only get mythic loot of those 4

#

right?

lilac stag
#

aye

trim ridge
#

i see

alpine wraith
#

there is a mechanic that if you kill later bosses you also get the previous ones unlocked

#

so if you for some reason killed court

#

even without ovi nax or ky veza killed you can get their loot too

#

that was done to prevent exploits

keen dome
#

Same, I need transmitter..

#

I've got Skardyns 😦

alpine wraith
#

i managed to get a normal one was unluckt with hc

keen dome
#

I've seen 1 drop and I did not win it. Maybe wednesday.

#

It's just gonna be another Smolderon trinket situation but I don't care enough this time.

trim ridge
#

does any of u guys have a wa to track flawless form?

#

the wa that i'm using now doesnt have an icon for it

alpine wraith
#

yea i do

#

it is in the pack from LE

hollow cobalt
#

I use Tellmewhen to track it

vestal escarp
warm aspen
#

ngl

#

i was hoping to have smething to replace transmitter from the new raid lol

#

even something slightly worse

#

but are we now the only spec that lines up super perfectly with transmitter?

hazy breach
#

Only rogue spec ye

warm aspen
#

wait is transmitter agil only

hazy breach
#

Theres a handfull of 90s classes across the game that use transmitter though

hazy breach
warm aspen
#

well

#

i wonder if i'll get it next vault lol

keen dome
#

Hoping you do! Big agi boooooost button.

warm aspen
#

the tasks...yikes

#

im worried i'll be slow with it

#

and my sectech misses the 10 trillion bonus main stat window

lilac stag
#

!transmitter

wicked joltBOT
#

The orb and circle from Treacherous Transmitter always spawn in the same spot. Relative to how your character is facing it spawns northeast/1:30 o'clock/frontright, this means you can know where it will spawn and react accordingly.
https://i.imgur.com/cTPN4Tz.png

warm aspen
#

or i dont reset my sectech fast enough, and THAT one misses the window

lilac stag
#

It’s really not bad to use

warm aspen
#

just due to fight mechancis

warm aspen
#

oh but imagine if burst trinkets had like dynamic cds/stats lol

shy ermine
#

Supercharger and coup make resetting sectech much faster

lilac stag
#

I’ve got vision issue and don’t have much worries with it

#

You learn to position yourself

warm aspen
#

like imagine if skardyn's cd would automatically become 90s for sub, but then grants less mastery too

#

is that cooking too hard lol

lilac stag
#

welcome to arms warrior

#

Trinkets matter

warm aspen
lilac stag
#

just pray they don’t forget about agil 90 in s2

warm aspen
#

and ig this spec wont ever be able to rly use a damage proc trinket unless it's suuuuuper strong like Mad Queen's Mandate right

lilac stag
#

Every spec only uses strong trinkets. Idk what you mean.

#

trinket tuned high. You use it.

warm aspen
#

ah mb, what i mean is outlaw does quite well with sikran trinket right, but sub kinda doesn't?

#

and i assume because law is flat dmg, but sub has clear windows where they rly benefit from a burst trinket

alpine wraith
#

not like that

#

it is because we have bugs that help contract and mandate

#

ovi nax is actually quite good for us too

#

it outsims contract for me

#

as trickster

warm aspen
#

wow

alpine wraith
#

as deathstalker those 2 are beter

#

yea stats are good when your skill actually have good scaling

lilac stag
#

yeah DS pushes some ahead

trim ridge
lilac stag
#

I’m assuming trinket sim sites are using an old DS build

warm aspen
#

how do u use ovinax lol

#

do u just play everything like mythic wrathion fight

gritty knot
#

Any sub high key players here who have XP with mandate trinket on Mist? It should be blasting on First Boss, right?

lilac stag
#

idk wtf bloodmallet has going on. Hahaha

alpine wraith
#

you just let one stack at 10

#

the other at 20

#

you can shoo betweend becoming and ADADADAD ape

#

or staying in place and moving sometimes

alpine wraith
#

you use transmitter on pull then mandate on his vuln phase

#

for some hilarious dps on that fight

#

best one i had i ended with 3.2m dps

warm aspen
#

oh so 10 seconds of moving into 10 seconds of standing still

#

sounds ctually kinda fun

gritty knot
#

@alpine wraith damn...I will def test that out....does mandate ramp up or get extra dmg from.smth? Or just send IT the Last Seconds on debuff

vale pine
wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

but bloodmallet does not use any dungeon slice talent setup iirc

alpine wraith
#

use it just as the buff begins then you have time to dance once

lilac stag
#

I mean thier ST list…

#

Take a peek

#

something not right

alpine wraith
#

or stand still and move sometimes

warm aspen
alpine wraith
#

yea

#

you can get 20 and 11

#

but it is annoying

warm aspen
#

hmm seems like a

#

forget the active

#

sorta deal

lilac stag
#

I just want a contract.

alpine wraith
#

i got an hc one it does fine but nothing crazy

#

the proc is super cool tho

#

SWOOS

vestal escarp
#

hc contract so far always did less than mandate

#

yeah sure 3k agi but we dont use that

lilac stag
#

Fights with no queen crits are big sadge

sinful sluice
#

how hard is obvinax compared to previous bosses?

vestal escarp
#

as sub critting mandate is to ask too much

sinful sluice
#

we just started rading it today

lilac stag
#

Big jump up

#

Everyone has to know what to do

sinful sluice
#

should i just run assa for this boss

lilac stag
#

nah

sinful sluice
#

think trickster 7 targets wont cover all

lilac stag
#

The parry is big for your melee

sinful sluice
#

weakaura took hours to set

lilac stag
#

I’d say being able to swap to prio add kinda big

#

It’s a dance and a WA boss

#

Have to look at kill times too

#

especially with supercharger I don’t think you should have any issues progging as sub

haughty mural
#

agree with scath

#

just send

#

sub

tribal blade
# sinful sluice we just started rading it today

couple of tips:
ALWAYS PRIO CHECKING WHERE ALL THE EGGS ARE- most of your wipes will be from people missing eggs
always watch your feet- the swirlies can actually have 2-3 in one and your cheat won't save you if you get hit by 3 at once

alpine wraith
#

actually i have some tips for dmg

#

on pull use 2 dances

#

then wait for egg breaks and use 2 again

sinful sluice
#

what do you guys think of taking tornado in

alpine wraith
#

then you skip dance

tribal blade
#

hey hacha if you use TFD

alpine wraith
#

tornado is quite bad as trickster

tribal blade
#

do you just use sectec at the end of 12 seconds of dance

#

whenever it comes up

#

or do you hold it for the next dance after

alpine wraith
#

depends on fight mechanics

#

many fights have shit at 30

sinful sluice
#

wait so opener 2 dances, and hold 3rd until egg break right?

alpine wraith
#

but if it is a normal fight you just send it

#

build to full then dance sec tech

lilac stag
#

flag should be up for next set then

alpine wraith
#

yea and on those eggs you use 3 and 4

#

and you get a cb on there

#

biggus dickus

sinful sluice
#

noted

alpine wraith
#

afterwards it is a bit more whatever

lilac stag
#

our dmg is good enough that I got taken off kick duty. Haha

sinful sluice
#

our party lacks DK it kinda feels bad

#

only 2

alpine wraith
#

i have to kick still messe smy dps sometimes

#

also important thing our flurry is around us

#

so you hev to be in front of the boss

lilac stag
#

our tanks are on dks just fir this.

alpine wraith
#

to hit spiders/works

sinful sluice
#

gorefiend is super op here right

alpine wraith
#

oh our means theris yea

lilac stag
#

Mixed up gores. What a timeline

#

Once tanks figure out the grips, and knockers figure out their part. It’s rinse and repeat. I think it’s like 200 ish pulls

flint umbra
#

are that hotfix nice?

#

Isn’t there an issue with secret tech not benefiting from something btw?

tribal blade
#

alright i'm doing a delve with TFD talented, this shit is hilarious

alpine wraith
#

it is very good i like it

#

only becomes marginally workse at like 6 mins+

tribal blade
#

i love it

keen dome
#

It is. It owns.

alpine wraith
#

if you can only proc it once

tribal blade
#

i can see why, 12 seconds of dance is absolutely bonkers

keen dome
#

Sub feels so good right now. Absolutely wild. I was so sure it would suck but NO. GOOD.

shy ermine
#

I was a doubter too, but was very wrong

tribal blade
#

we were dooming on the changes, but they did a good job

#

now we just need A BIT MORE

keen dome
#

They did. I think on paper it just looked a little weird. but in play it makes total sense.

keen dome
shy ermine
#

Combo point refund bugs are the big ones for me, on coup and replicating shadows

keen dome
#

Ye

lilac stag
shy ermine
#

But sub feels sick to play now outside of those

keen dome
#

Bugfixing is def still a big hope of mine, but I put it in a different box than class design stuff.

tribal blade
#

i need to get me something

keen dome
lilac stag
keen dome
#

Ye. absolutely a good idea. I need to do that.

lilac stag
#

idk if there’s a better solution but made most sense to me

keen dome
#

Do you happen to have the SpellID for it?

tribal blade
#

oh you reminded me maybe i can get rid of snd WAs

#

but it might be good to track possibly

keen dome
#

Huh, yeah. Probably could.

lilac stag
#

hold on. Let me get out of bed.

keen dome
#

Oh, it's fine. Don't get out of bed on my account haha

tribal blade
#

ok i just did a bit over 2.5 mil dps with a TFD dance on a big group of mobs

#

with just dance and symbols

keen dome
tribal blade
#

b r o

lilac stag
#

I should probably get up and feed the animals anyways

#

I tried to tell you

#

YOU NO LISTEN

tribal blade
#

haha

#

the only issue is i feel super energy starved

#

compared to sin

lilac stag
#

maybe because energy isn’t a resource for sin

keen dome
#

I miss vigor, but I tihnk with Symbols it's fine enough

lilac stag
#

bascially add that to your dance WA of choice

keen dome
#

Thanks, hero ❤️

tribal blade
#

oh shit nice

lilac stag
#

i'm assuming almost every rogue WA pack is using borders now

clever delta
#

With every assa nerf, sub Is stronger right

tribal blade
#

lemme screen cap that, ty scath

lilac stag
#

welcome

keen dome
#

Yep, worked. Thanks!

#

I was trying to do it with a glow, but couldn't get it to work. But this worked immediately. Appriciated.

lilac stag
#

not sure on the glows. i disable those right fast

tribal blade
#

ok i just walked off the edge of a cliff and died in a delve because i'm dumb

lilac stag
#

congrats

keen dome
#

I use them for a few things. For some reason it wouldn't activate, but the border works fine and is also fundamentally the same thing I was doing with a glow, so.

lilac stag
#

and yeah I'm using old flag icon

#

i just cant see the monocrome being off CD lol

keen dome
#

I need to fix it, but got lazy. It's the better icon.

lilac stag
#

3565724

#

icon id

keen dome
#

❤️

#

My setup isn't so bad with the new icon.

#

I do need to stop being lazy and fix the text de-saturing too, though

clever delta
#

The new flag Icon make me feel like we have something new and cool tbh

keen dome
#

SHOULD BE PURPLE!!!

clever delta
#

It's kinda

keen dome
#

I do appriciate them moving away from the SL stuff and making these things more bespoke for the talent trees.

lilac stag
#

i think the flag icon is a L unfortunately

#

but easy enough to bypass

flint umbra
#

Why is sub so good rn

lilac stag
#

supercharger is good

flint umbra
#

What change was the thing that steered them this way

flint umbra
lilac stag
#

fixed some cdr issues

flint umbra
#

Now it isn’t bugged

lilac stag
#

still have flexability with cd sends

#

good players get rewarded

tall sequoia
#

So i have a question, if i do brd and palace, will i grief chances of transmitter in vault?

flint umbra
#

Isn’t there a bug with sec tech tho

tall sequoia
#

maybe wrong channel sry

tribal blade
#

i'm using sub for the next mists i do hell yeah

flint umbra
#

I remember hearing that it was not benefitting from something, maybe supercharger idk

lilac stag
#

general? idk this is the least used spec channel

tall sequoia
#

alright, cheers

lilac stag
#

deathstalker shit basically

molten citrus
#

lol lingering too

lilac stag
#

since you've got less cdr and trying to compress into 16 seconds GLHF

molten citrus
#

What a game ICANT

lilac stag
#

we're past WW monk levels of bug memes

molten citrus
#

Yes we are

#

The specs are all pretty fun right now

#

I’m enjoying the expansion

lilac stag
#

whats the play in solo bg, is it tricky or is DS better

molten citrus
#

But the amount of bugs kills me

lilac stag
#

idk how much some of the trying to get cdr back plays inot pvp

#

in bgs

molten citrus
lilac stag
#

at least its getting used then

#

that's good

molten citrus
#

Lots of damage modifiers and better utility

lilac stag
#

pve wise, shockingly enough, they cooked with trickster right now

molten citrus
#

Yeah

#

ST rotation in m+ sounds hella fun

#

Powder spam was always boring

lilac stag
#

i dont plan on topping overall, but you need something dead I AM ON IT

haughty mural
#

i mean is powder spam different from evis spam ?

molten citrus
#

Yes

lilac stag
#

you're paying attention to refunds for finishers so not as 1-2-1-2

#

thankfully

haughty mural
#

true

lilac stag
#

and sectech back up quickly

#

and managed sod

haughty mural
#

i am vibing currently

lilac stag
#

so yeah it's not just spam

haughty mural
#

thats all i asked for

lilac stag
#

debating on going focusing lense

haughty mural
#

i just did lol

lilac stag
#

minor gain

molten citrus
#

Storm-powder every other global for 30 minutes regardless of cooldowns

keen dome
#

I like ascension quite a lot so will probably just sit on it

molten citrus
#

Was boring af

haughty mural
#

so i wont spec into assa so soon again 2ez

keen dome
#

Gonna recraft my stats back to versa mast though

lilac stag
#

i wanted to look at more logs with it to see if it double dips in amps

haughty mural
molten citrus
#

From our kit

merry agate
#

Haven't tried TfD in Keys... wesponmaster into TfD? Or what would you guys change

lilac stag
#

some of the bosses amp dmg, and the shadow one is slightly more dmg from the gem

molten citrus
lilac stag
merry agate
#

Aye chief Surebud

lilac stag
molten citrus
#

Ooh

lilac stag
#

the mastery gems proc shadow (i think)

molten citrus
#

I assumed it didn’t just because it’s an embellishment

#

Yeah

lilac stag
#

it's not major

#

but it does

molten citrus
#

We run those in pvp anyway

#

Mastery gems and Lens

lilac stag
#

its funny how far crit fell off

keen dome
#

Yeah, haha

keen dome
lilac stag
#

basically running pvp stats in pve now

#

gimme all the vers mastery

haughty mural
#

lens choses according which ones you have the most, right?

lilac stag
#

random

wet summit
#

I got a quick question, Do we still not use BP or do we use it but when we haven't used Sectec?

haughty mural
#

so better to just get onyx to force the shadow ones

lilac stag
#

with trickey? basically only real use is if you have coup with no sod charges. idk if it's even a gain then
