damn that would be massive bis
or even better
with avoidence
jokes aside, i think titanforging is just a mechanism
to keep content rewarding
e.g. we discussed with delves
how they rly only give you normal loot
and a heroic loot vault
but you barely have any reason to run them outside of like first 2 weeks each patch
blizz ofc gives you reasons now
would it be worth at some point taking a hero track knife from the vault?
Wouldnt that require running delves?
i got heroic track from a map
but there is no reason to use it over mythic items
DAMN lucky
which i do every week 😉


now i can pretend to be a hunter
Delves solo content is too slow for me
It's pretty easy to see delves are not content aimed at me
delves reward structure is meh
even then not
whats the next question
Horrific visions coming back though 👀
i'm someone who does stuff like achievements, pet collecting, mount collecting, tmog collecting
so doing delves every week is worth to me
i'm actually finishing up my last weekly delve as we speak
TBH on week 1 soloing delves with low gear was fun as it was kinda new and challenging + gear was as good as you could get
for rogue it was easymode tho
you can even sap the big elites
and just skip them
LUL
also trick brann when he was a rabid rapist
rogue wasn’t ez mode. Pet classes were ez mode on release.
bdk solo the entire thing for a group
bm hunters running 11s when everyone else at 6-7. Haha
I like delves. Nice time to just chill and do some solo content. I wish the 11s offered heroic gear and at least 1 mythic vault option
well we got lots of content cut
remember awakening the machine was meant to be a whole thing
it had 50 lvls and lots of achievs etc
delves too i guess
we'll never know
Btw I'm gonna take a look at updating the WoWAnalyzer for sub over the weekend for "fun"
basicly free gold and materials,takes like 20min a week
For how many delves?
8
i have like 20 keys
and i might exaggerate on time
its like 2min each delve
i have done tak rethan in like 1 min and a half
You also need to grind keys right
you are bulldozer now
literally pull everything and aoe it down
with brann healer
the pot heals for 4m
LUL
u dont rly care,just go in storm the delve go next
if u get a map rng the heor track knife
yup knife is poggers
I keep running them for knife
I would like to sim mandate never critting vs crystal or knife
not a fan
i don't want to ruin anyones fun for the game
but wow takes the crown from nintendo in re-cycling content
this xpac
old is the new new
I made our Hunter reconsider life choices with my opener burst. “Dude how are you getting mandate to pop every time?” I’m not, that’s sub rogue using a 619 delve trinket. 
Nah, not my vibe
I’m looking forward to plunder round 2
nice
Is there a reason for the sim to sometimes send sectec 2nd finisher in dance, usually popping dance with full combo points to instantly eviscerate ?
Even outside of the 2nd dance in the flag window cause yeah this one is obvious
It looks like it does it when we already have several stacks of flawless form
@hazy breach ^
it is because we use symbols/dance before secret is off cd
so it uses a finisher to get back secret
Ah yeah so we're not fighting for of live with backstab and get Sectec quicker, smart, i see thanks
Might need to make a rule in my head depending on sectec remaining cd
gz
is there a macro to like stop casting an ability if the aura is already on? like if i macro secret tech with symbols of death, i can sometimes use 2 stacks of symbol because i spam key like we all do
!sod
Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
@unkempt adder
aha thank you
Sry to ask but what is knife? A dwelf trinket?
#showtooltip secret technique
/cast cold blood
/castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death, secret technique, null
/cqs
this worked like a charm @native zodiac
How many people bake symbols of death into sec tec or shadow?
Do we still need to play gnome on queen ?
#showtooltip secret technique
/cast cold blood
/castsequence reset=1 Symbols of Death, null
/castsequence reset=2 secret technique
/cqs
needed to refine it. this fixes if the cold blood and symbols is on cd but still want to use secret tech problem
the dark ritual knife from delves,mastery and primary stat on equip
Naaaaah i wanna kms
ye true i dont need that
this stuff aint for me
ngl eleem im kinda addicted to this class
I personally would advise against macroing symbols into technique
But up to you
is there an instance where i would use symbols without tech?
Theres a lot of times you will use technique as 2nd finisher in your dance for example
So you will not have symbols at the start of your dance then
I personally only use the cb technique macro as i think the others create bad habits especially if the logic changes next tier for example
do any of you play tornado in m+?
LA combat is fun
I would not recommend it. Its not that good as trickster
Its very slightly better than veiltouched on huge pulls yes, but its completely useless on bosses and very weak on low target counts
holy shit this was so thrilling
do we always want to press SoD right before sectech for the supercharged points?
++
But its not necessarily always the first one
will try to turn it into a habbit as im still using SoD + dance when sectech is 7-10 sec away..
can you elaborate more on this
You get 2 supercharged combo points when you press SoD
ooh so you do not consume them both at once
So if your sectech has 10 seconds left and you use dance+symbols and eviscerate, it will reduce the cooldown of sectech to 0 and then you can use the other one with sectech
Correct you do not consume both at once
as BMTH once said, killing it(me) 1 by 1
During your blades+flag burst you want to use it for that purpose
Since you end up with 10s left on sectech most of the time
So if you dont use SoD for those +3 then you will need an extra finisher before sectech, which isnt great
is that the finisher focused class you talked about?
yuh, high uptime big hitter class
lol why does it seem like in some fights flag has a Lower range that other abilities i swear I use it and am three gcd into rotation and looking at it still up and just Sadge
That's the exact change I made off the FAQ talent build because I'm a tornado hater
tornado is unique in it's jankiness
Does it matter what tier delve you do for mats/coin farm? Is there a point past tier 8?
Not past 8 no
anyone got a good WA set

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Gottit
He just hates me I guess smfh 😦
:l
thanks for the help man
!guide
usually im doing the start of mist with these talents, i cant deal with the replicating shadows bug anymore
what talent do i take instead
im clueless

Maybe tfd or shadow focus?
I don't know why I'm offering an opinion to the level of content you're doing tho
Tfd for sure
the first dance
shadow focus is very weak
shuriken tornado is meh
your fault 

8 is ur number
it can be my fault, no problem
its only for mists up to 1st boss so you are only getting maybe 12s of dance total
and 4 of those are on the 1st part of boss so not a ton of value
yea and keep in mind those extra 4 secs are already worth almost in a 6 mi boss fight
even more in 3 mins of dungeon
where you proc it twice or thrice
so even more reason to run it
when i was cooking this for this part of mists I was looking at dropping RS and premed for ist/planned execution for pure burn dmg
so you lost the sun while looking for weeds
but tbh we dont have many extra burst talents
i guess PE would help a bit more
ya it was more tfd duration gets used before the burn, and burn damage would be the main reason to swap to sub anyway, and premed does nothing for burst with blades lasting entire phase
does anyone know of a queen log where they hold vanish for 1st root break I can look at?
If you vanish at the start of the pull its back up for 1st roots
yea you vanish cloak dps vanish
Which is a lot better than nothing (ie SF)
yea idk let people be people although for mists most of the time i prefer to just send cds on pull on ingra
then i have cb dance + mandate on burn
and other people can save more things
still end up the boss at like 3 m 3.2m most of the time unless group sucks a bit and we have to do 3 burns
fair enough
Imagine the trash before the boss getting destroyed faster because you took TFD. Those are easy uses.
well these people know what they want
so making them change ideas is hard
still going PE is not a super bad idea for that situation
i think tfd should get the 6 seconds removed
I have been playing tfd in there, I was more wondering about the viability of playing that PE alternative
yea it is hard to say always i do like tfd more but maybe you rng crit some more with PE
but i also do the above
so im blasting ingra on pull where tfd shines more
likely that is more boss dmg than PE VS tfd on the burn
Well for sub the ideal way to play the boss is to use CDs on pull and then phase it at 1:30
And then phase it again at 3m and kill it
My main gripe with tfd
Is that it often doesnt start counting until like 3-4 seconds after youve left combat
maybe it still uses the old 10 second timer?
I am sick of replicating shadows too tbh...so u guys would recommend using the First Dance anyway in m+ Always?
it also can reset because of healers and some spells
very annoying
yea always tfd
the only talent i change is wm to replicating
if i still havent inted by getting annoyed
of losing cps
that day
Okay, nice thx. U cant reset tfd midfight somehow right? Like vanish far away. And even if it works its propably stupid right? I actually didn't Play tfd yet because i can only Play Sub in some Dungeons. In Others i am always forced to Play assa because of IW....-.-
Okay. But still 4 Seconds longer shadowdance is huge propably
it is
as said before it is almost worth on a 6 min bossfight
so imagine getting several procs over a dungeon
Nice, I ll try that Out later for Sure. That Sounds insane. Good for me that I ve read that discussion today and saw that, because I never thought of that Talent yet 😂
It’s a very nice talent
But it counts wrong
You technically should be able to have it a lot more often
In CoT it must be insane aswell
But sometimes it just counts down too late
Or dawnbreaker
Damn. I am actually super excited now to Test that Out later when I can come online
Thx guys

I mean its not huge, but its way better than some extra strike prio damage from wm
one pulled queen 
nicu
tyty
Hi, is it okay to hold secret tech or 15-20 secs for upcoming CDs or is it better to use outside of dance
If you got cd’s coming in 15-20 def hold
I haven't been accepted into a single +12 since I've timed all m+ 11s. Am I supposed to play sin to just progress IO? Do you guys have this same issue?
think about it like this
12 is a big hard gate
jump is really big
keys get a lot harder
u and all the other people who timed all their 11s are applying
so the chances of you getting in, is very little
I have a BM friend who has this issue, and who gets kicked when they see he runs BM and not SV, the solution to increase the acceptance is to reroll tank or heal 🤣
yea best thing you can do is time your 11 +1 or +2
and then get people to do yours
best thing is to have friends u play with and stop pugging altogether
I didn't know if theres a gap between 11 to 12
yea my friends all quit already
theres a major gap between 11s and 12s
unlucky
12s feel closer to what you think a 14 feels like
i was doing 12s third week
rather than a 12
I dont think anyone is bold enough to claim class selection trumps skill expression/talent when timing 12s
but now i cba
only do 8 10s
yea but it is all the information people have
the only thing they have is keys done io class spec
how are they going to tell your skill level?
oh and ilv
they see a spec and an io attached to it
my io?
its litearlly a number and a spec
everyone aroud you has the same io
and better specs
so which one would you take?
i take the guy that has higher io
tier whoring when you aren't in the top .01 percentile is like the most unhealthy way to approach competition
2721
Like, you need a tank, you have a monk and a dk in your list, same io, same ilvl, which one do you take
okay 2721, how many other 2700-2850 people do you think apply to a 12?
put your own 12 up, youll see
always monk it buffs me
theres people in 2800s applying. so why take the 2721
my groups always warrior monk shaman druid and me
I didn't notice this selective bias until I applied for 12s. I did not feel outcasted when applying for 11s.
all the buffs for me
its because 12 is where the gate is.
I dont know probably who applied first. This is my first xpac, I really don't have a bias in class selection except when raiding ig.
class selection is more important in m+ than raid
does meta trump like time put into a class? Skill expression? Wouldn't you want a master of x,y,z instead of some mediocre jack of all trades
like you go to ara kara without poison dispell, even a 12 is a nightmare
people care 0 about your exp they only see what they see
you can talk all you want here but they only have that info
u go to SV without curse dispell, youre not getting past the litearlly first pull
Do you advise I learn sin or just host my own keys
do your own keys
i just hope you dont enjoy m+
doing it without frinds is harsh
you could try and intermingle with people if you see someone good talk to them
i have like nothing else to do other than work on raid parses lol
or play like fightinggames ig
not everyone is super introverted
Yeah, play with friends, don't care about the meta, and the keys will go up
some people will just talk
filling in the gaps when my friends aren't available. I did half of my 11s with at least my tank friend
Ping the guys you did the 11 with, ask them if they're down to try on 12
Oh, yeah, good start
yea you already have more friends than me now
this is stealthis thoughts on pugigng m+
My main concern is spec selection. Im not trying to make a speech about community bias
they all left key
class selection will be biased
because everyone can see the data
it is not a hidden thing
some are better
illusion of free choice. ive never learned assa and I dont have assa gear
I gave up a mythic silken neck bc I dont play sin, but ik its good on sin
being a meta spec will help a bit but even then your best bet is probably running your own key until you have a few 12s timed and more score to get invites to 12s
okay, class selection is very very very real in m+. There are specific utility that are required in some keys like decurse, or poison cleansing that mean sometimes you need to bring specific classes that have them.
I meant spec selection, I understand when you dont need a rogue in certain dungeons.
now if you mean on a 12 why they care if youre a sub rogue or a sin rogue, well, theres 2 rogues one is sub one is sin both 2800 io. Sin is more likely to make your keys easier because its a lot easier to do more damage with it. so you pick the spec thats more likely to help you time the key.
unless there is utility assa has that sub doesnt
am i a minority to voice that is a poor competitive perspective
ive grinded tons of comp games and wow is my first mmo. I never believed meta to make an impact on perforamnce unless you are in top .001 percentile. Skill will always be the difference maker
unfortunately in wow the only approximation of skill we have are a few funny numbers
Yeah, but people thrive to look like the top .001% and do the same without thinking about what each class is bringing to the table
That is still the case here but meta definitely has a much larger impact in wow
okay you keep saying skill, but the only real signal towards your skill is io. and even then its not really a meaningful signal.
so theres no indication
given equal skill, you take the better spec
in fact, they are inviting based on skill. if you wait more than a minute when posting a 12 there will be plenty of 2800+ applicants who by the only metric possible are more likely to have more skill
^
I dont mean to compare like the exact same IO of two rogues, one sin and one assa
very easy to assume everyone is equal skill (bad) and you take the spec that is statistically the best
it's not really unfair but it is just the reality of doing keys, find a group/friends or suffer in group finder (the second one is very not fun from someone who did it a lot in the past)
isnt rogue overall a difficult class? Is sin relatively a 1,2,3,4 spec compared to sub?
@alpine wraith U said I should drop weaponmaster talent right? and talent TFD instead
If you wanna play tfd you drop wm yes
LFG is just not a sustainable system for a role based game.
I understand, I was using poor wording. I mean in an extremist case where one would completely ignore sub rogues in M+, regardless of IO, because of the spec
Okay thx
no i think sin and sub are both pretty easy, target the highest hp monster and just do your single target rotation
nope for me the change is wm to replicating
i always play tfd
@alpine wraith aaah, okay. will try that out, cheers m8
And also, the composition matters, like you are a sole dps trying to run your key, you don't want to take other dps first because you're lacking tank/heal so first you wait because you don't want to pass on tanks tagging with their buddies. Once you've taken your tank and your heal, you already have 3/4 people in your key, and you will usually find that you are lacking some vital utility (like, you want an aug, a lust, a CR) and take the associated class. As sub, you don't bring that much if you trade the vital utility for the quality of life you bring
this was like 2 weeks ago.
cables are pretty good though
I'm afraid the more I go down this m+ grind I will be in your position. So I'm wondering if I just learn sin to get over it. But it seems I can last a little longer just hosting my own keys w/ friends
per your guys' friendly advice
yeah sin is very clearly the better spec, but fortunately sub is good enough that you aren't really griefing if you are playing it
For such a long lasting franchise I just expected a little more, idk.

they don't put a huge amount of effort into balancing m+, i don't even know if it's possible
balance is in a much better spot than it has been in the last couple tiers
balance is actually really really good right now
any game that becomes competitive developes a preference towards meta. You see pick rates of meta champs go up even in gold/plat/emerald in league.
an LFG based system makes this worse because you can actively choose who you bring
it further makes it worse because the supply >>>>>>> demand for dps
is it troll if i host my keys as assa and then once the group is formed i switch to sub or does my io change
Its fine
youll sooon realize people dotn care as much who you are when signing up for your keys
everyones in your shoes
they just wanan get in a key
i can see that
yea these kinda games were always meant to be played together
so kinda like get into guilds/communities befriend people then play together
if you dont do that
you end up sad eventually
or be like me and all your friends stop playing kek
wow is dying amongst my friend group slowly
have a monk and a mage that will always run keys w me though
do we have any buffs coming up 
For what reason?
does anyone have a weakaura which tells me if TFD is activated rn?
You can add a border notification to your dance WA. #subtlety message
Otherwise just make an aura WA
also akari is bugged again on queen log 😦
I see a HUGE difference in trinkets being used in keys.. what is a good pair for sub? 😄
transmitter then depending on dungeon mandate or a passive one
passive ones are crystal from dawnbreaker ovi nax egg knife from delve or contract
aye aye
also, is Queen ring good for Sub?
a bit better than a normal ring
Huge difference in all 20 of us? 
haha truuue
One person kills a boss with the wrong talent selected and all of the sudden there’s a 6% variance in talents taken on wcl
Really fuck with em and take double vanish
Is it really that few playing sub
It’s probably lower than post combo.
Assa is so fucking strong
sub was propped up on court and queen
3800 mythic parses over 2 weeks. Getting slightly better
think there are 20 people or less
but private logs are there too so idk
keys…. lets see
so yea lets say there are double the private logs
there are 180 logs of sub on ansurek
vs lets say
ok i got lazy but yea there are more than 1000 bm
but many of those are rekills so idk
And the playing amount is the same?
i got rank 7 on oci nax pog
I’m on mobile. Not gonna try to sort that out.
yea but lets see
same boss
also seems 3 people sneaked while my rank fixed
im rank 10 now smh

Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
expected
Sub is so insanely fun. I will not be swapping for reclear now, but unfort will still be playing ass for key push.
Man I still can’t figure out how people maintain such insane dam in keys
I must b holding onto cooldowns too much
And also my awful trinket situation
it is mostly gear
a lot of us are like 635
the diff in power is massive even if only 5 to 7 ilvl lower
637 😎
Probably yeah, i only hold if i know for sure the mobs are gonna die halfway through my cooldowns
Obviously its gonna depend on your groups damage and your ilvl, but ive found that ~60m or so left on a mob is usually enough to get most of the value out of it
So if a mob has less than that i wouldnt use
That’s a good call out
I wish more tanks would keep the pull train moving
I die inside when I’m sitting on big combo
And we are fighting one high health mob
You should probably still use a shadow dance+symbols
Even if youre not sending your big cds
Another rule of thumb is that you generally want ~40s left on your second dance charge whenever you press flag
To make sure you get 2x during flag+blades
So 1 and under 40 on 2?
Ye
Ooo see that’s juicy intel 🙂
If you have tfd up its more like 50-55ish since you get 2 more globals
Youre still spending combo points during your first dance in blades+flag so you dont need both to be ready at the start
Just enough that its ready when the first ends
u dont backstab in dance
Ok sec I need to make sure I’m saying all the right words
So symbols into dance
Then do I evisc sectec or rip sectec
supercharger gives you 2 stacks. you want to make sure to spend 1 stack on sectech the other one is either on evis or coup.
I know if sec tec is down evis to get it back up
But if it’s up just send it?
To get on cooldown
if sectech is up, you send it first during dance as long you dont have both coup and fazed up
except hte times where its off cd and you will not be dancing until flag/blades are both up, which u send sectech outside of danec as long as you can get it back by the time you will be using flag
And you generally should not be sending symbols+dance if your secret technique is on cooldown
Oh wait
The exception being if its on like 10s cd which you can reduce by a supercharged eviscerate
Every dance should have a sectech in it
Preferably at the start, but second finisher works too
Since we have multiple charges of symbols and dance we do not need to use em immediately
So dance evisc symbols sec tec?
We can hold onto them until more opportune moments without losing anything
Symbols before the eviscerate
Ohhhh
But yes, either dance at 6+ cp or at 0
Yeah ok get like 2 extra seconds
Jesus I didn’t think of that
It’s like a full gcd where no dmg is going out
Now to break bad habits
Thanks eleem!

best thing you can do is game hard
you will get used to it
you can also do some cheeky things in some dungeons and places
with getting extra chargers
I timed another key today, big gaming 
Only a mist 15, but still, +score is +score
i just do +10 cba with other things
well at least sub rogue seems good in pvp
won in eu now in na it is doing well
true actually
the others were outlaw
oh the supercharged Nighty night
inb4 another nerf to evis
sub stonks rising
We’re weak
okay but do i sub this
also you can que 2 SoD before flying on the doragon
Go big or go home
to get 6 chargers on pull with boss
or well 8
if you count the 2 from actually using SoD too
Who needs iron wire anyway
Its not like youre gonna die from random casts going through

just tell them you are assa and swap to sub on count
no dont lie
just speak a lot of good sides of sub
just dont say we do 1 mil only without cds
shhh
its real rogue roleplaying
i have to run this at some point
but i'm not looking forward to bricking on 1st pull to the tank dying like the last time i tried 15 NW
oh ym friend has that one
one of my friends is finally doing keys so we might 2 man pug now
we have 15 NW 15 gb now
first pull Nw is really hard
yooo big
1st time i tried it was with my friend megz and we pugged critecake
the fake critcake
albertocake
and he died on 1st pull while she had dropped dome on hijm
haha
hello i am in search of help
i recently started playing sub for mythic ansurek prog and im having a hard time anticipating when I'll get combo point refunds with symbols up. There are times when I'll expect to get a refund and I don't, then other times I don't expect to get a refund and I do.
For the latter I recently found out if im talented into 2-target rupture, tics of rupture can proc finishers which is kinda weird. idk if there's a way to play around that
For the former, here's a clip https://www.twitch.tv/shindigwow/clip/ClumsyRealOryxFrankerZ-Bda-xrQshmV-vfin
I send an evis at 8 stored cp's with symbols up and don't get a refund. why is that?
I can’t watch your stream but if you’re running replicating shadows it can cause inconsistent delays in cp returns.
its 2 bugs.replicating shadows bug makes it so u can get a refund in the middle of a gcd if u hit 7+ cps which is causing the random refunds.
the 2nd one is a dance/stealth bug that makes shadowcraft not refund cps until after you sod again
Is there any way to play around the replicating shadows bug?
Sorry can you explain this like I'm 5
Replicating shadows is broke and makes people punch holes in their walls. it's ok you're not the first
No
IIRC for full single target it can be worth dropping the talent just to avoid the bug
even if it sims worse, but I'll defer to the big brain subbers to confirm
i haven't simmed it but iirc it's a marginal dps loss
but you don't have to play with the RS bug
what is blizzards history with bugs that affect dps I feel like that would be something that has decent priority
or is it just cuz we're rogue
Also like, the % of players exposed to these bugs (the player in a position to want to punch a wall when this bug happens) is extremely small
we think it's glaringly obvious and horrible
but we're tiny
thats true i didnt think of that
the sad truth is the dev team is obviously small
and they don't have time to fix every single problem
so we literally have to pray they decide to fix sub stuff
over other specs
BUT GOOD NEWS we're the least played spec
so will we get a lot of dev time? nah
RIP but ok that could be technology
Tyty
i started playing wow right before 10.2 i think is when the rogue rework came out and all i was told was that sub was basically always the go to rogue spec and most popular
most popualr for rogue*
then the dust incident happened

I don't think that's true at all
Is that ds or patch
patchwerk
oh no wait a second, i think i mixed them up
the lower dps sim is with RS
for me
interesting
what did you swa pfor it?
improved sht
i think playing with imp sht is a big QoL change
kinda sad we don't have it in M+ build
i accidently made a mists group w/o a shammy last week, and it was pure misery
no imp sht and no skyfury
my energy was in the toilet
Ye no skyfury is rough
Luckily all 3 shaman specs are really good
So you have it in most keys
i was wondering the whole time "why the fuck does everything feel horrible right now"
yeah this is a blessing tbh
because the difference skyfury makes for sub is crazy
the last time i simmed it it gives something like +125k dps
Ye its a lot
Ye ive ran tfd in all my keys pretty much
If i didnt its because i accidently had my ST spec on when i did a swappero
instead of rs?
No instead of WM
ah
yeah you lose quite a bit of cleave if you don't talent into RS
i haven't really been spreading rupture as much as i used to as tanks are gathering
Also @tribal blade can you read through the bottom section with the dungeon tips for me and see if you find anything notable missing 
https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/subtlety-rogue-pve-dps-mythic-plus-tips
lemme see
oh there's a lot here lol
on surgeon stitchflesh maybe you can say if people fuck up running the boss through hooks while he's down you can vanish the fixate
this is super niche and uncommon, but on master machinists in SV if you don't have a ranged kick in your comp i suppose you can step>kick the boss every time he runs away
oh on 1st boss of CoT you can pre cloak the debuff before it comes out
on 3rd boss of CoT you could maybe say you can combine sprint+cloak to help out your group and grab as many orbs as possible so your group doesn't need to soak a set
this is why I'm in this chat I just learned 3 things I don't know if I'll ever need to use them but they'll be in the back of my head
Good stuff
last boss of DB too you can step back to the boss after you've dropped a web
Ye the spiderman tech
yeah that helped me out a ton on that boss when i figured that out lol
i have yet to try that, i hear it can get fucked up because of shorter height races
like i'm a dwarf
Nah its fine
i tried doing it at the start of the season and it didn't work for some reason
The only time where it can go wrong is if you jump very late, because when the web goes out you get "gripped" down to the floor
So you can glitch through the wall if you do it very late
ahhh gotcha
But you can be down there for a second or two without anything happening
i have yet to see space be a real problem on that boss yet anyways
Ye thats why i didnt mention it
main issue on that boss is just damage
Its cool tech yes, but its not really needed and is hard to explain in text without it being very longwinded
yeah true!
I know if you don't cancel the perm tricks buff on NW the last boss if you get sent down the ad cant be hit
Oh ye right
oh shit i forgot about this lol
that's an important one for sure
the dragons in GB you can also feint>step back to them after the knock goes out
but it's kinda dangerous doing this at times because you can step back into aoe stuff on the ground and die
Ye for the most part id just recommend line of sighting
It does a decent chunk of damage even with feint up
Stray bolts can def kill you after it
yeah i've killed myself quite a few times trying to use the feint>step tech there
it's definitely much safer to just los
i'm not sure if it's worth saying, but if you're running a no ranged comp and get the charge on 2nd boss in ara you can vanish it
at least i'm pretty sure you can vanish it, i haven't actually done it
we gottem boys

Trickster for all
Is it crazy to macro dance and sod together. It feels like I’m using them almost always at the same time anyway
word ty
Keyword being almost
You want to be able to cast them individually during your burst (ie the second dance of it)
But outside of that you could macro them ig, i just dont see the point 
It looks like the burst always starts with both at the same time and then I always hold symbols for just an extra 2 globals or so after the second dance, meh idk. I just like cutting down my binds wherever I can
U use them separately though
do you guys know how to pull the pack after 1st boss in mists through the wall
doing the pygmy thing
I know that dks do it with grip
idk what pygmy is tbh
😅
back on SL i knew druids and hunter and warlocks could do that as well with the same focus target tech but pygmy..

what is pygmy
it is a mob type from cata
the guys with their eyes hidden by the turban
but i have no idea what item he talks about

its an old wotlk consumable
yeah ive googled the details
im just curious what prophet said
how to perform the pull
searching on reddit
nvm found it
Any ranged can pull through the wall using Pygmy Oil using this spot and a 40 yard spell.
cool
@tribal blade
ah ok very nice
(no shot those are real btw 😂 )
lol literally every streamer ever
ah ok so only spell casters can do it
why did i hear rogues can do it too
the poison dagger throw thingy
im a mechagnome,will test it later on today and confirm
says any 40y range spell could pull but im skeptical
im positive my mage will perform it
dunno about my rogue
run this
sub is pretty miserable atm w/o more symbols charges
true and 2nd
then depending on how your tank pulls and skips you get it for more
and then you get it for every pack when you're running around doing the mini game
get it for 2nd boss
it's up a lot p much haha
and iirc you only need 1 proc every ~5 mins for it to be better than WM
TFD I feel is dungeon specific
Feels literally worthless in stonevaults for example
Feels a lot better in stuff like mists
i have yet to try using sub in SV
i'm afraid to run that place without iron wire carrying the beginning of pulls
sub is a lot better now
Hey guys, how is sub in mythic palace?
Really? All the hype seems to be in assa
Assa is also very good, its one of the best specs in dungeons overall
I find assa in boss fights boring so I wanted to try sub in raid
But not sure how it's performing in mythic
If it's good enough for progression
Idk about progging at this point, but for earlier prog sub was just better on last 2 for example
I'd say overall all 3 rogue specs are basically the same in raid, you can play any of them and they will perform well
Sub has the edge on queen, Idk if it even has the edge on silken court anymore
if it makes a difference you're tankier as sub over sin
dude i need to somehow end this not timing a single 15 streak
this has just been the most insane amount of bad luck i have ever had in this game
Well like I said on most fights it's just as good
On the hardest fights, it's just better
does anyone have their own defensive roatation for kyveza?
idk if i have to use cloak on first queensbane or not
Looks like it's neck and neck on court now
pre-cloak the charge if you get targeted.
if you're running DS, use Evasion for the boom blazes at the end of each intermission
and feint during intermission when you get targeted
no, you should try Sin though
lmao
Sin is much better
for that fight
but if you're stuck on Sub, you should be fine, just triple make sure you're not getting double hit by blazes in end of intermission
you can live 2 blazes with evasion and DS talent, you cant' without
Outlaw is actually very good on that fight too if you wanna play that
Elusiveness goes hard on that fight
yeah, that is required btw
you need elusiveness or you're gonna just get completely dicked during intermissions
because base feint doesn't work on anything
Well I got a heroic skarddyns at least
Should I use 2 clickable trinkets?
Or is it best to have one passive
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
how long is p3 on queen now?
No idea but P1 platform is still a cooldown that very few classes can actually do
Sub is one of them
pretty sure prog wise sub is better, but boss dam wise assa wins
atleast when p3 gets shorter
just 2 fat dm's
Are any brd trinkets worth going for
no
we should always be using sec tech first after 2nd symbols during cds?
maybe its lack of skyfury that makes the timing a little tight
I have my cooldowns in an mrt note as im getting used to timings is there a way to make it scroll as the fight goes on as it is now I either need a really long window or just deal with seeing nothing once its past
You should be able to setup Reminders in MRT https://www.method.gg/method-raid-tools-reminders
that way you’re not looking at the list
it doesent reset all stacks
i think there is a good argument to make 1 min 30 cds on sub reset
and stacks
but well, it is what it is
so why exactly don't all cds just reset on a raid boss wipe, i never understood
do they simply not have the technology
Probably one of those things they never went back and updated as the game changed? Who knows
But it really should
only 2 min+ cooldowns reset
if you have e.g. 2 stacks of dance
it is technically a 2 min cd
but won't reset
bleh it sucks
NEW ARCAAANNNNEEEEEE
neeerrrwwhhh
sub is sus in SV
i didnt like it
(+11)
btw my gnome cant reach easily the animaslashers after 1st boss but its doable
u can make the pull in mists as a gnome
ah ok good to know
Whats the best way to dodge kyveza daggers?
Do i have to dodge them inside the middle box
I get hit by balls easily if i stay outside of it
yes you want to stay within the middle because if you're too far out you'll get hit by orbs
the best way to dodge is have a countdown set on bigwigs so you know exactly when they're coming out, then watch the direction she's facing right before daggers go out and try to be behind her
if you're really worried the safest thing to do is to move off her so you can very easily dodge the daggers she shoots out if you happen to be in the blast
also as you're dodging
a lot of people make the mistake of moving too much
i see
you want to quickly move off any line you're on, then immediately stop and wait for the next lines
the first dagger comes out so fast so i tried standing beside her
you don't want to be nonstop moving
but that way i get easily lost and get hit by the orbs
it comes with practice, but yeah you want to dodge while staying in melee range of her if possible AND staying within the middle
but i highly suggest if you're early in prog and still learning the fight just focus 100% on dodging
don't worry about doing damage
kyveza gimmicks seems quite easy compared to other bosses
i mean ovinax to be specific
princess is a really well designed boss imo
yeah
you know when you set portals correctly
you can just let your hand go from keyboard
haha yeah
the designs
the main thing about her is just live
yeah
its quite easy now compared to pre nerf versions
at least feels easy
we tried about 2 hrs today and saw 30%
hopefully can kill tmrw
yeah it's not so bad
once you get the gist of the fight
so long as people aim charges correctly and press defensives and dodge
she'll die
i heard the damage was so fucking bad that you couldnt live out even if you used everything
before nerf
yeah it was a crazy fight prenerf
they had to 1 tank it in RWF
and use bresses on the tank
haha
so they could have the extra dps
mad tactics
ovinax was the same way prenerf, really really hard
but i would rather prog princess 1000% over ovinax
any day of the week
i wish i could go back in time and prog that fight as sub
i had no idea caustic spatter was the main cause of my lag on it
doing it on reclear as sub and i have WAY less lag when the adds come out now
i heard if you turn off cell and details it helps a lot
main lag comes from details trying to calculate the dot dmg of all classes on adds
yeah turning off details usually does help a lot on every fight
my entire raid team set up details specially when there was insane fps drops and lag on queen at the start of the tier
there's a setting where you can turn the rate at which details updates
yeah
tbh i upgraded my PC just for this boss haha
lol fair enough
it kept on sluttering so i couldnt handle it
0 regrets tho
feels so much better to play
yeah it makes a big difference
think sin is just too good on the fight
it is really good yeah, but the amount of lag i got playing sin when the adds came out was REALLY bad
i'm doing more dps playing sub on it now
because not losing half my globals when all the adds are out=more deeps 😉
sry i mean fatebound
isn't it caustic in combination with stuff like
oh in combination with DS?
i have no idea, but i wouldn't be surprised
BUT prog for ovi is over, so just playing sub on it works well
also the warr on my raid team is really happy to not be parried anymore on the fight hahaha
ahhhh yeah that makes sense
because it creates a shitload of events
because the combo of spatter with singular focus creates a metric fuckton of events
yes, deathstalker in general creates a lot of events
the hero talent is just poorly designed
well good thing is i'm playing sub for the rest of prog
