that one hasn't

#

there wasn't much else iirc

snow birch
#

What's everyone tought on the changes done on SUB, I'm so confuse I don't know what to think

#

It feels the same but it's different

#

Dps sooner on pulls, that's the only positive I can found xd

lilac stag
#

Love trickster. Best shit since dfa.

#

Deathstalker sucks

keen dome
#

I wish DS was better but trickster. Chefs kiss right now.

thick field
#

has cloak been changed? it's full immunity to magic effects for 5 seconds right?

#

i read something somewhere about needing to time it right

coarse nexus
#

think the first second thing has been in forever

#

could be wrong

real swallow
#

is sub better than assasiin for m+ now?

sinful sluice
#

i guess rogue is well balanced after all...

real swallow
#

haha nice

coarse nexus
#

but in my experience sub has felt nicer to play up until about +12

real swallow
#

thanks jimmy

#

630, pretty decent gear with transmitter

vale pine
#

630 is good gear

#

620 is kinda meh

mental comet
#

Imagine having a transmitter SadCat

short radish
#

If it was a heroic transmitter it'd be better 😦

wraith granite
#

whats a transmitter?

short radish
#

Bis sub trinket

#

Playing without it feelsbad.jpg

warm aspen
#

but playing with it feelsbad too

short radish
#

True

wraith granite
#

Guys, Legion has a skin that requires a keystone of 15+, isnt that impossible for new players?

#

I haven't even touched M+ 😆

azure mauve
#

sub feels good now

proper tusk
#

pretty sure that means a +5

#

cos that was listed back before the keystone level squish

#

+15 became +5

wraith granite
#

ah ok thanks

hazy breach
molten citrus
sinful sluice
#

we have 37 parses

#

......

alpine wraith
#

we kinda do decent dmg but not this power of decent dmg

#

keep in mind this is a log so no aug details krangling

#

i've beend oing from 1.4 to 2.1m lately depending on dungeon

#

but that is still far behind enha

young path
#

So I’m kinda weird and delayed taking my vault item till I had enough gilded crests to immediately max out…

An absolute giga increase from 626 contract…. It had tons of procs and recommend u take a look at it for m+ if you get the opportunity

alpine wraith
#

ovi nax egg is better

hazy breach
#

Its a fine trinket yes

short radish
#

I'm huge r1

#

Biggest fish in the puddle

#

I do think sub can be better in some dungeons

#

Cot and dawn for one

#

Well two.

hazy breach
#

Its good in grim batol too

#

Speed shroud is insane there

short radish
#

True

#

Will have to try it there as well

young path
alpine wraith
#

sub is good on mists nw cot gb and dawn

#

the others we are whatever

short radish
#

I think nw has too much trash for sub

alpine wraith
#

stonevault can also be good

short radish
#

To overtake assi

alpine wraith
short radish
#

Sure there's 3rd boss

hazy breach
#

Like with the route i used yesterday these are the times i used (or wouldve used ig) shroud for the speed

#

Thats a lot of time saved just by running faster

alpine wraith
#

shroud after 1st boss is bis

short radish
#

Yeh like 30 or 40 seconds saved

alpine wraith
#

also sub there has a big power

#

you can stack 2 chargers while dragon is flying

#

just snap 2 cold ones

short radish
#

Too bad enhance brings all of that and decurse

#

Ecks dee

alpine wraith
#

you begin pulls with 6 chargers

hazy breach
#

Prob more like 20 because we'd have speed totem anyway

#

But ye

#

Its good

alpine wraith
#

if you do dragon well and pull the cpaks into boss

bleak wind
#

are you playing with the aoe talents

alpine wraith
#

you do like 7m dps

#

there are no aoe talents

#

kek

hazy breach
#

Kinda?

bleak wind
#

or I mean DB but ye

hazy breach
#

No nado

#

Fuck that

alpine wraith
#

no db no

short radish
#

Fuck nado

bleak wind
#

thats trickster right

hazy breach
#

yeeee

bleak wind
#

what is the threshold now for evis vs black powder

alpine wraith
#

10+ but depends on fw too

hazy breach
#

Around 12 with an average amount of find weakness

alpine wraith
#

you could say if you did a storm when you had only 1 rotten stack to get fw on all if what someone said that bug was fixed would be ok

hazy breach
#

But technically it could be lowered to like 9 if you have fw on all targets, but idk not many situations where its worth it to bp

#

Most of the time the prio is worth more than +2% overall

bleak wind
#

what about with blades, or did they fix that

alpine wraith
#

blades make it a bit stronger to bp yes

hazy breach
#

But blades also makes strikes stronger

#

So you get less fw uptime

#

Antiquated ahh debuff fw

sly shore
bleak wind
#

how often do you actually get first dance

hazy breach
#

Pretty often

#

But it doesnt matter that much

#

The alternative is WM, and you need like 1 reset every 4 minutes or something for it to beat wm

bleak wind
#

cos I am pretty much just doing random 10s for vault and the chain pulling epidemic is worse than covid

hazy breach
#

Theres atleast a couple of spots every key where you cant chain

tight bloom
#

Mist is BiS for it

bleak wind
#

mobs at 2%, better leap into the next pack

#

actually losing my mind when that happens

hazy breach
#

Like grim batol, you get one on pull, one after drakes, one after first boss, one after second boss, one before last boss and probably one or two more across the dungeon, but thats like the minimum

alpine wraith
#

you have many dungeons where you can sneak chargers too

#

that also makes sub a bit stronger

#

apart from tfd

bleak wind
#

do you also sneak in a storm, bp for macabre stacks at least during first dance

alpine wraith
#

become the oppresive mfer with 4 or 6 finishers that go to town

#

could be a win but i dont care to do it

#

evis hits super hard

hazy breach
#

Feels like it should be a minor gain but shrugeg

bleak wind
#

even just for first dance?

hazy breach
#

Ye with a dance.remains>8

bleak wind
#

I would assume it would be better for the longer dance

alpine wraith
#

you might need to make it more strict

#

like after consuming all rotten and getting at least x stacks(presuming you already used sec tech and evis so it does not do it too early)

#

but cba tbh

hazy breach
wicked summit
#

So is trickster the play in keys? Been playin assassin and I miss sub

hazy breach
#

Speaking of simc findings

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

yea i also kinda noticed that one a bit

#

playing around using CB more but didnt think on the 2nd cb in dance

#

makes it tigher now tho

#

for the second set of cds onward but seems cool

bleak wind
#

is that because of flag stacks or something

tight bloom
hazy breach
lilac stag
#

.5 can suck my macro

bleak wind
hazy breach
#

yep

shell lance
#

In raid too @hazy breach ?I say trickster!!!!

vale pine
bleak wind
#

how big was it, is it worth doing

mental comet
#

i did an 11 as sub it felt good besides dying on a big pull because healer got stunned peepoHappyDank

chrome lake
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
vivid cobalt
#

i've been getting about the same total dps as sub as i do as assa in 8-11's this week. albeit im def better at playing sub but still

#

being able to get 1.7 as sub makes me not feel guilty about not playing assa even if i could min max higher than that

mental comet
#

feels same for me but haven't reached 2m+ overalls yet like i can on sin SadCat also losing the garrote bonuses kinda meh

vivid cobalt
#

i hit 1.98 mil as sub in one run but it was a giga chad group with the ret doing like 2.3 or something - i very consistently fall between 1.4-1.6

Subtlety Macros:
It is not recommended to macro most cooldowns.
The following macros are an exception:yaml /cast Cold Blood /cast Secret Technique

/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Thistle Tea```
When using diffrent macros, make sure to keep the cooldowns on a seperate key.
mental comet
#

ret pressing 4 buttons gapping everyone in pug keys is so funny to me

vivid cobalt
#

what i like about sub tho is the boss damage is nuts, and i think thats overlooked in value sometimes

#

yeah i might level my ret this weekend finally

mental comet
#

ye doing like 300k more boss dps as sub than sin

lilac stag
#

Overall def lower, priority and bosses seems better.

mental comet
#

sin feel kinda bad on bosses now cuz u cant pool teas b4 a boss now since they auto activate

#

unless you just stop playing the game and using energy

clever delta
#

!up

vivid cobalt
#

sin has always felt kind bad on bosses to me but thats prolly cuz i started out playing sub

mental comet
#

i rly need to get a transmitter tho SadCat next week 4 sure

vivid cobalt
#

i got so lucky with mine

#

had it since week 2 or 3

mental comet
#

i've only seen 2 transmitters drop this tier clearing both diff every week since week 1 and stopped raiding b4 got to mythic princess :S

#

one was this week it dropped on normal but guy wouldn't sell it

vale pine

@vale pine i have check the macro and don’t have space

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

vale pine
mental comet
#

is it possible to drop tornado for first dance or something else? idk find like i can't get good usage out of tornado

mental comet
#

yea

#

u dont like blackjack?

vale pine
#

thats personal taste

grave abyss
#

trickster tricks is pretty comfy, but you could definitely roll blackjack + don't be suspicious for M+

#

along with stillshroud

mental comet
#

i like blackjack

#

tricks doesn't work 99% of the time anyway it feels like

#

literally pull aggro from applying a garrote as sin and autoing once with tricks up

bleak wind
#

its most likely proximity aggro from the mobs next to it, since you are only attacking one target (or I guess 3 with garrote)

mental comet
#

idk i don't think that a garrote application should pull aggro over a mob that was hit with D&D/bloodboil or thunderclap or avenger's shield

#

also that part of tricks where it seems to ignore your first attack like if you ambush/shadowstrike a mob b4 tank touches it the mob hits you insta

steel horizon
#

Yeah i always found that weird

spark tusk
# mental comet

I know they reset down to 2 on boss pull, but do they reset on starting a key?

#

I imagine so

velvet nova
#

whats up with kyveza M logs playing trickster?

alpine wraith
spark tusk
#

ahh

#

Figured as much

alpine wraith
#

also no parry pog

spark tusk
#

With our higher emphasis on sectec now, do we still sectec first finisher in dance even if we have 4 stacks of blade and fazed up?

#

and then coup after? or coup first

velvet nova
spark tusk
# alpine wraith also no parry pog

The ability to just ignore parry and be wherever is huge, I feel like I've just had some difficulties seeing where some bosses are facing esp kyveza who is smaller

dim lagoon
#

is supercharger bugged for Eviscerate? I'm seeing some weird low damage eviscerates when supercharged

merry agate
#

Man that TfD 12 seconds dances... sometimes i even feel so generous to throw out a cheap shot kekdog

lilac stag

trying to isolate it on a dummy presently

Which dummy?

dim lagoon
#

Kelpfist

dim lagoon
#

raid dummy in Dornogal

The open world dummy’s are buggy

carmine portal
#

Only started playing Sub recently, is it me or does Deathstalker feel beyond underwhelming?

alpine wraith
#

yea just shelve it

carmine portal
#

Thematically I love the sound of it but man, it's ASS (i could be playing it wrong, but still)

wicked summit
#

Hey quick question, after all the big CDs are sent ona big aoe pack do we just spam shuriken/black powder? Or is rupture prio?

hazy breach
lilac stag
hazy breach
#

If youre looking at logs from last wednesday/thursday then yes supercharger wasnt working on evis

twilit phoenix
#

trynna learn sub

#

why is sectech so fun to press bros

hazy breach
#

Big bonk big fun

alpine wraith
#

and it would be better if it was not split

#

smh

twilit phoenix
#

i like the cut of your jib

alpine wraith
#

yea made a simple one for the meanwhile this weekend i will make the boss ones and a more in depth ones

twilit phoenix
#

pog

lilac stag
#

@alpine wraith is this the first time in forever that you’re not running a cooked build?

twilit phoenix
#

does premed trigger from shadow dance?

hazy breach
#

Yes

alpine wraith
#

apart from the good builds

hazy breach
#

Thats the reason why we can delay our shadow blades in the opener/burst since premed makes you get full cp with your first strike anyway

twilit phoenix
#

feels like sub has the most involved opener

#

but kinda fun how fast paced it is

lilac stag
#

involved?

#

It’s next to nothing now

lucid jackal
#

It's so ez rn lol

dim lagoon
#

it appears I was mistaken - man that took awhile to isolate.

lucid jackal
#

This is the easiest, and least convoluted version of the spec

#

It's so nice

twilit phoenix
#

haven't played sub since wod bro

hazy breach
#

I still wouldnt really call it an easy spec, lots of unintuitive things about it

#

But ye its better

round latch
#

what is involved in this

round latch
hazy breach
#

I wasnt really the biggest snd hater out there, but man does the opener feel way better now than before

hazy breach
#

Only thing i dislike is that if you dont get a coup proc after sectech in your burst your second sectech ends up being delayed

cedar rock
#

woah i just checked the raid rankings and it looks like sub is up there now. How is it doing in keys ?

dim lagoon
#

any reason why you shouldn't macro flag and shadow blades together? I know the rotation guide has you using flag earlier in your rotation but i'm kinda wondering why

hazy breach
#

And blades+2x dances+trinkets as your cds

dim lagoon
#

yea but flag just increases your mast - so why not boost that during the double SD of your opener instead of using it earlier?

hazy breach
#

It is up during all of double SD

#

Flag lasts 24 seconds

dim lagoon
#

ahhhhh

#

ok that's what I was missing

hazy breach
#

Or well, its 12+12

dim lagoon
#

so we're just trying to get a couple of boosted ticks of rupture out of that extra duration

hazy breach
#

For some reason they didnt lower its duration when they lowered blades duration from 20>16

#

Well blades makes you get full cp with every builder

#

But youre already getting that for your first strike in dance from premed

#

So you dont need to cast it until after you've used that premed

#

Otherwise you would waste premed

dim lagoon
#

my thought on a simplified opener being, SS, Evisc, Vanish, SS, Rupture, pot/racial/trinket/Shadow Blades/Flag/, SD, ....

hazy breach
#

Well if you flag before the first evis

#

Youll have more mastery stacks already

#

When you press your cds

#

And it still lasts the entire duration of your other cds

dim lagoon
#

mkay

#

what about the 3 minute mark when your going into your 2nd window - use together or apart?

pliant topaz
#

its the same concept

hazy breach
twilit phoenix
#

are you basically just pooling double dance until your 1.5 mins come back up?

dim lagoon
#

I don't no - I usually only have 1 dance for the 2nd window

hazy breach
#

This is the opener with graphics from wowhead, but your non opener bursts are the same execpt you skip the eviscerate

#

So its flag at high cp > rupture > go

lucid jackal
hazy breach
pliant topaz
#

wait the cb stuff is public? i thought we hadnt pushed it yet kekw

hazy breach
#

But when you press flag you should have 1 charge and your other should have atleast like 40s left on it

lucid jackal
#

I know everything

#

I'm in your walls

pliant topaz
#

LMFAO

hazy breach
#

Or theyll saw through you

lucid jackal
hazy breach
#

And then trying to squeeze out as many symbols and dances inbetween those as possible

#

While still making sure you have them for the burst

vivid cobalt
#

whats the cold blood tech?

hazy breach
#

But its better to "miss a dance" outside of cds

#

Then to not have 2 whenever flag and blades is up

#

If you had to choose

pliant topaz
dim lagoon
#

I've macro'd my Symbols to SD - for the sake of simplicity. Is there an argument for using symbols outside of SD?

hazy breach
#

Yes, there are times where you will not have enough time to farm dance cdr but still need to use a symbols

vivid cobalt
hazy breach
#

Because the second one does more damage

#

Due to flawless form stacking up

pliant topaz
#

because 2nd sectech does more damage than the first

#

more flawless form stacks + more flag stacks

vivid cobalt
#

ah duh

pliant topaz
#

and theres no longer dust to reduce cb cd

hazy breach
#

Its only like 2 more flag stacks

pliant topaz
#

so ure not losing casts

lilac stag
#

more headaches for .5%

hazy breach
#

But its atleast 7 flawless stacks, since 2 from disorienting strikes and 5 from coup

#

Probably another one from a natty proc too

pliant topaz
#

one from sectech itself

clever delta
#

!up

hazy breach
#

Oh ye sectech too, so 8 extra stacks, thats ~24% more damage

pliant topaz
#

big stonks

pliant topaz
#

i swear if i have a ppal the silence isnt even tht big right? right? copium

hazy breach
#

I came to the conclusion that im probably just gonna send a kidney on a caster and possibly a cheap shot before we start aoe stopping

vivid cobalt
#

can u actually skip packs or just use for speed

hazy breach
#

In the one i linked we skip the first 3, but its mostly for speed

#

You obviously could skip stuff with it, but thats not sub exclusive

round latch
#

whats the deal with ruptures anyway

hazy breach
#

Without db rupture aint that huge

#

The "all targets ruptured before flag" thing was with db, which is like +35% to rupture damage with finality and all included

pliant topaz
round latch
#

ah cool

#

nice nice

hazy breach
#

First, after drake, after first boss and after second boss

pliant topaz
#

idk thats a good lust. first 3 + dragon + second 3

#

gives u good lust timing

#

then the nexet pack is small again to get back cds

lilac stag
pliant topaz
#

oh and one thing ill say, I think finality and DB are stupid and boring BUT, they do improve a lot of things i wish the spec had.

#

finality + db improve prio by quite a bit. its so weird that sub has such horrible prio (unless deathstakler, but that thing can die)

#

it also makes my filler / maintenance time more meaningful with ruptures being more meaningful

#

it also makes my evis's hit bigger and big evis = big happy for me

#

and lastly, it makes sub scale better to higher keys if rupture is actually an impactful source of damage

strange chasm
#

Sin is so stupid good in GB

dim lagoon
#

kinda wish snap shotting was a thing again - your rupture's would be massive

lilac stag
#

stop trying to turn sub into a dot spec

#

fml

swift tinsel
#

yeah its kinda antithetical to a cooldown burst spec identity

left ledge
#

Does fazed only work for sub rogue applying it

#

Or does it just debuff the boss to not parry anything

swift tinsel
#

the tooltip just says "your attacks" but not sure

lilac stag
#

it works for everyone

#

likely unintentional

#

There’s your raid utility

alpine wraith
#

yes it works for everyone

#

tanks will love you

left ledge
#

Yeah I assumed so

hazy breach
#

The damage part only works for the rogue

#

The parry is raidwide

left ledge
#

Yeah

#

Ok nice

#

Sub rogue utility

#

Now let’s never talk about it again

#

Works as intended

alpine wraith
#

they already know

#

but it is prio -10

shy ermine
#

Still higher prio than replicating shadows

left ledge
#

I’m hearing they can’t lmao

alpine wraith
#

on raid combat yes on some things but not everything

#

on dungeons you dont get parried

tame terrace
#

do we still coup first in dance if its up?

#

like save coup, then dance coup sec tech?

round latch
#

im here hitting the dummy for a couple of hours trying to understand how trickster dmg is coming out and i still dont like coup de grace

#

it feels so wrong man

crisp cradle
#

!wa

wicked joltBOT
tame terrace
#

is this supposed to be with flawless form NOT up or with it up

#

since the bp line above says when its not up

left ledge
#

Yes

#

Bp when it’s not up

#

Storm on 3 or more when it’s up

#

You want it up to cleave with evis

#

Backstab and strike apply it

charred sandal
#

yo, does sectec dmg snapshot the moment u cast it or the moment it hits?

round latch
#

each sec tech hit benefits from the combat state u currently are

#

if u press sec tech and lets say ur trinket or ur dance drops it doesnt benefit the amps

charred sandal
#

so if i press sectec and then right before clones hit press trinket it gets amped?

round latch
#

yes it benefits from the trinket

charred sandal
#

regarding coldblood id assume it covers both the initial hit and the clones?

round latch
#

yeah it covers the entirety of the 3 part atk

#

its 3 part atk im not tripping

#

right mr @hazy breach

#

(sectech that is)

#

sry for asking but hows sub rn after the 11.0.5 patch compared to before?

pliant topaz
#

its a bit stronger in raid

#

its a lot more versatile in keys

#

trickster is very very fun

#

deathstalker equally dogshit (fun wise)

inner meadow
#

sub is the most honest rogue spec

#

no poisons

#

no guns

#

just shadow damage going hard

tame terrace
inner meadow
#

dark brew makes it shadow dmg tho

tame terrace
#

its still poisons

#

dark poisons

left ledge
inner meadow
#

not as cheap as real poisons tho

twilit phoenix
#

do we time vanish with anything after the opener?

#

like, do we hold flag/blades until vanish is up?

uneven scarab
#

No vanish doesnt really do anything now

#

Its more of a defensive

#

Its used in the opener mainly for premed just to speed it up

twilit phoenix
#

ahh

#

got it, ty king

#

what are you guys macroing transmitter with?

#

separate bind?

uneven scarab
#

can macro it to flag, and try and pick it up right as you enter dance

#

I honestly just manually press it right before flag otherwise ill forget to do the task lmfao

lilac stag
#

Separate bind best

#

Flag is mostly ok.

edgy zenith
#

flag works perfectly fine if you slam a jump immediately after jump no matter what the task actually is

#

that way you can get the 2 jumps before sectech

#

and orb you can always get in time if you send on flag

velvet nova
sinful zephyr
#

Does it make sense to switch back to sub from sin without transmitter? I feel like there are no good alternatives

lilac stag
#

Up to you to decide.

#

Run your sims and see what’s what

lethal gale
#

Outside of dawnbreaker is it worth to play around with the first dance?

#

play around as in wait the timer out

#

not sure if its even much a gain over wm

small prism
#

with coup the grace, does combo points matter or is it always 5 combo points?

alpine wraith
#

it is quite decent vs wm

lethal gale
# lilac stag Yes.

hmm ok gonna need to make a wa so i dont int with 1 sec left before buff lol

rugged condor
#

does anyone have 2 sectech macros? 1 CB and 1 without? im looking at silken court logs and it looks like they hold sectech because of cold blood

sinful sluice
#

does starting with full supercharge stacks make a huge difference?

lilac stag
#

You can only start with 2

sinful sluice
#

why?

#

after reviving, cant we stack it up to full

lilac stag
#

Encounters reset it

alpine wraith
#

it resets to 2

sinful sluice
#

oh really..

#

well i guess 2 is still good

rugged condor
#

yeah, not macroing is an option

lilac stag
#

Just depends what your brain can sort out easier after how many times pressing the macro for both.

Hell yeah

velvet nova

why do i get random combo points when i'm not using any spell? for example i use backstab, it gives me 4 cp and 1 second later i get another 3

Wait is Recuperator not broken anymore?

vale pine
#

they fixed it, yes

keen dome
#

Oh my god

only took like

It actually did decent healing, too.

umm,, I just wonderin do we need to pooling dance before we use big cds in changed sub? I played .5 sub first yesterday and felt dance is lacking more than before 🙂

What week auras do people use for sub-trickster? I've used luxthos for a bunch of other classes and it's been fine but it doesn't really track anything for the trickster talents which is annoying

I need to revise my trickster stuff, really just escalating blade I need to remove the forceful glow imo, and remove the sectec instruction

unique nest
#

So uuuh how does it work now ? We used to send shadow dance when symbols were up but now that we have 3 charges of symbols ? do we send every 30 sec using 2 charges every burst ?

spark tusk
#

and just have a way to indicate if you have fazed or not, more subtle as now with the changes it's not as directive as it was

#

pre patch

spark tusk
#

sectec determines the cadence of everything

#

except flag, that determines the cadence of sectecs

#

So you use sectec on CD, and before sectec you send either symbols, dance, or both, if you'd have 2 charges of each by your next flag

#

a good rule of thumb is if flag is 30sec away, don't send symbols/dance with sectec, hold them. If flag is 20sec away, don't use sectec until flag

unique nest
#

Ok so there is a time when you use sectech naked then, when close to flag and low on Symbols/SD charges

spark tusk
#

Most of the time you won't send a naked sectec, btu yes, you will have naked sectecs here and there

lilac stag
#

you send a sod/sectech every 4th ish in ST

#

Just depends on cdr

spark tusk
#

If you ended up using the WA

unique nest
#

I was trying using sectech as master on rashanan mythic but i get much more cdr on sectech thnaks to the adds. so i sometimes deplete all my charges pretty quickly

lilac stag
spark tusk
#

Do you mean how the charges are represented, or do you mean just visual placement etc?

#

Hard to represent it without numbers because the partial charges matter, I think

#

and I can't reasonably do a partial semi-bar without creating new auras

lilac stag
#

No comment at this time. Trashpandascheme

spark tusk
#

All g

#

Again, early days with it, can just sit and think about it

lilac stag
#

Mmhm

spark tusk
#

I'm more just thinking about as experienced players work with it, do you notice things about "the numbers seem right to send when they are X" or w/e

lilac stag
#

I need to let it digest a bit more

spark tusk
#

yeah

#

Same to you @pliant topaz if you've had a chance to look at the WA while playing

So is it ok to trickster for both m+ and single? I’m already not understanding the spec and learning two diff rotations :0

you can check mine i did an initial one on this patch

It’s way too complicated for me to retain lol

Is that YouTube channel name?

I’d love to watch

Thanks man!!!

mighty delta

how we feelin in m+ everyone

#

im scared to go sub but ik the changes made us half decent

#

sin just feels more in control

lilac stag

How can you say it feels more in control if you haven’t played sub?

people come in here with some alphabet soup trying to ask if they can play non meta spec.

Feels fine to me.

You may hate it.

see was that so hard lol

So you still have to try it

Come back once you do

lol

mighty delta
#

as i said been playing it the past year

#

asking how other ppl feel as well

lilac stag
#

Past year what?!!

#

You said you’re fucking scared

#

So that would leave one to believe you ain’t touched in the the past 2 weeks

mighty delta

ok

Sub is fine in keys. It’s not assa level tho

sub has cool things it can do

we have big boi burst and can also stock resources for when ti is needed

oh and very tanky

haughty mural
#

True

#

One just need confidence in it again

#

i feel like the 1 change trickster needs is UB to proc off storm

#

not needing to backstab in aoe=good

#

being able to storm+BP in huge pulls while proccing UB and coup=good

I’m guessing it’s to basically have some “skill expression” and thought into keeping it up

that kept my dps

i've had some good 1.8m runs but if fights get long it can go down fast

Sub is better than Sin for prog on her right?

#

They end up with the same overall, but in my head dmg profile should be better

left ledge
#

idk

#

this bitch

#

got the fattest ass ive seen

#

on a wow boss

#

but somehow her hitbox

#

is one of the smallest ive ever dealt with

tepid trellis

the webs with waves and bait

tepid trellis

that one is so chill tho

#
  • you can kinda bait those pools whereever
#

it donesent really matter at all

doesent*

left ledge
#

i was trying to pop there

#

its mistake

tepid trellis
#

pop just before roots

left ledge
#

yeah

#

started doing that

#

still hate this boss hitbox

tepid trellis
#

just wait for the coup charges

left ledge
#

its way too small in p1

tepid trellis
#

i think sub is hands down better

left ledge
#

yeah im waiting for coup

#

doing coup into sectec just before roots

#

so that clones hit the roots

tepid trellis
#

i meant for the coup charges that kills you during web blades

left ledge
#

oh

#

i dont even press anything

tepid trellis
#

xD

left ledge
#

i just find the hitbox annoying

#

cant hit her without killing myself

#

and we have these stupid delayed ones too

topaz agate
#

the hitbox isnt that bad

tepid trellis
#

i almost got killed today with coup charging me into blades

topaz agate
#

ovinax hitbox is worse imo

left ledge
#

but i played sin on that

#

kind of just didnt care where i was

topaz agate
#

the tail that isnt part of the hitbox but covers swirlies

#

made me lose my mind

left ledge
#

i never stood there

#

too cursed

#

i also played that boss with some shit weakaura that reduced my fps

#

and i didnt even know about it

#

fps legit dropped to 1 every time swirls came out

#

so i guess i couldnt even shift my attention to hitbox

topaz agate
#

we figured out so many fps saving techniques through this prog lmao

#

never had my game so smooth even on queen

left ledge
#

yeah

#

my game super smooth now

#

we also went through a lot of fixes

#

that WA script really saved a lot

topaz agate
#

biggest one imo

#

is restarting game before raid and during the break

#

wow memory leak is crazy

#

i assume its the combat log

#

also turned off auto logging and advanced combat logging

left ledge
#

yeah it gets pretty abd if u log

#

bad*

topaz agate
#

it was bad even when i had logging off

#

cause it has to put the combat log somewhere

left ledge
#

does that circle people get from soaking do anything

#

ive ran into it to kill myself a few times now

#

and it barely does any damage

hazy breach
#

If you have soaked before yes

left ledge
#

soaked what before

tepid trellis
#

does dmg but not alot

left ledge
#

im not a popper so

hazy breach
#

If youve popped before

left ledge
#

ok

#

so i can actually

#

just stand in those

hazy breach
#

Yes

#

If youve popped its gonna oneshot you though

they do like

#

hug boss press backstab

#

if you havent soaked

#

i pop first bomb so im in hell for the rest of p1

#

3rd pop is claustrophobic

#

@pliant topaz u r on silk right? are you playing sub?

pliant topaz
#

yea

clever delta
#

im thinking about playing sub there as assa feel kinda assa and wanna play sub for queen anyway

spark tusk
#

I think I saw it mentioned earlier, is the first dance worth playing around in m+?

#

and worth taking?

hazy breach
#

Even with many chain pulls its still a lot better than weaponmaster if you just gets a handful of resets across the dungeon

#

And pretty much every dungeon has multiple places where youll get it guaranteed

hazy breach
#

I tried pugging some keys tonight armin

#

I hit em with the ol swapperoo

pliant topaz

they never expect it

#

howd itgo

people hate sub that much?

pliant topaz
#

on NA they seem to

hazy breach
#

Very poorly, but that had nothing to do with me

#

Like our tank leaped+changed first boss cot when we were still super far away

So we got gripped but didnt reach the circle before it ticked again

Just instantly killing 3 people 💀

God damn graham chose violence tonight

just failed a 13 CoT

#

and the healer said he's never had to heal a rogue this much

#

and i was the lowest damage taken in the key

#

so i'm confused

twilit phoenix
#

damn

tribal blade
#

but it was pretty much everyone fucking up in this key

#

so it's not on me

south seal
#

Should've taken less damage clearly

tribal blade
#

@spark tusk what're we doing about this guy

tribal blade
#

it's another spell i want to see go

spark tusk
#

Oh I don't care for tornado

#

like I did for sepsis

#

Tornado can go

tribal blade
#

yessss

#

get rid of it

spark tusk
#

I mean I'm keeping the WA 😛

steel horizon
#

what if they just removed the charge time for tornado 🤔

tribal blade
#

it's sad about sepsis, the original spell before SL was released was mega sexy

#

and then they had to make it a shadow of itself because it was "too good"

tribal blade
#

give us something new

#

it doesn't work with sub anymore

round latch
tribal blade
#

interesting can anyone give some insight

#

into rshams being in general the best healer for keys, but at the very high end in R1 keys disc priests are the best

#

does it boil down to fort buff

#

like actually

pliant topaz
#

disc damage is very stonks, pi for enhance is turbo giga stonks. and mitigation is often better than raw healing throughput

tribal blade
#

oh that's right i forgot about PI

pliant topaz
#

also theres a lot of things disc can cheese

#

MC in NW is insnane

round latch
#

its actual preventing coz u shield stuff,they dont take dmgk

pliant topaz
#

pet can absorb a lot of admage going out like COT void rushes

#

their ramp is really strong for the type of damage that comes in some of these keys too

#

and it combos really well with ppal

tribal blade
#

bro watching zorthar 1 phase the 1st boss of mists on a 17

#

enhance is illegal

round latch
#

enh sham is balanced

tribal blade

i think they might have cleared that mists before the nerf

pliant topaz

they did

i watched it live

was something special

when people get max ilvl do you think 20s are gonna be possible

sub needs to remind mfkers why its feared as the most deadly spec

pliant topaz

#

@pliant topaz ok timed a 13 CoT with sub

#

i prefer sub in CoT so much more than sin

#

holy

pliant topaz
#

same yea

#

only key so far i dont like sub in is gb

tribal blade
#

is iron wire just too good in GB

#

but boss dam as sub is just way better

pliant topaz
#

its decent if u dont have a ppal but its mostly the prio that i really like in there

tribal blade
#

and tankier

#

mmm gotcha

pliant topaz
#

sub feels alot better yeah but the sins prio is just insane

#

and every pack has something u really wanna kill kinda

#

havent tried sub in a high enough SV yet either

#

i think i did a 12 and i did 2.1M no aug which was kinda nice

tribal blade
#

damn nice

#

SV is another dungeon where iron wire is really good

#

i casted feint 60 times in this CoT

#

goddamn

pliant topaz
#

its kinda weird now. sin has alot better uncapped aoe (eventhough caustic/CT are reduced at 5 I belive?)

#

so like sin kinda blasts in those keys

#

I kinda wanna try some DS sub in some of those super big pull dungeons like NW/SV

#

DS has a lot better prio too

warm aspen
#

oh actually in SV

#

on those pulls that are just a bunch of dwarfs and no big mobs

#

wtf do u even flag lol

pliant topaz
#

something that lives a bit ig

tribal blade
#

when the key's high enough those mobs will live long enough usually

warm aspen
#

yeah it's literally just like 12 of the same pisslow hp mobs lmao

#

yeah ig i gotta find ppl to get into the 12s and 13s with

#

so far i got a prot pali buddy and that's it

#

feelsbad

tribal blade
#

yeah if you're doing like 10-11s those mobs die really fast

warm aspen
#

im at the point where i dont even wanna use anything beyond a pot for 11

tribal blade
warm aspen
#

but i cant get 12s

tribal blade
#

so you're already ahead!

warm aspen
#

yeah guy's cracked but his wife ragequit after pushing title s4 df, otherwise i'd have tank + healer carrying my ass lmao

tribal blade
#

yeah title pushing breaks a lot of people

warm aspen

if they still were a duo we'd be able to just grab some hobo aug player off the street and we'd be set 😦

tribal blade
#

you don't wanna run with an aug

#

it's only good if you have good coordination

warm aspen

i mean it'd be a premade

trying to get a buddy who ints every key on lock to swap aug rn lmao

oh god

that's a terrible combo

warm aspen

#

or lock player on aug

#

lmao

tribal blade
#

someone who ints every key playing aug

#

although playing aug would technically be simpler i guess

#

but your mistakes as aug are compounded a lot more than a regular dps

warm aspen
#

LUL the guy's a retired havoc main

#

guild put him on lock duty for raid so he's playing it in keys too

he's like dying inside from trying to do mechanics as immobile ranged caster kekw

At least if you see a sub rogue in the wild you can probably expect the person to actually know how to play the spec
