Also that assa and outlaw is performing better for m+ so just thought they would kinda be better in the raid environment
outlaw's damage profile is always good for keys, but not so for raid
in delves with sub should i go with brann heal or dps?
i just play him as dps, but i hear him being healer is better
because the potions he drops heals you for a lot
You can
Hey guys any chance sub will be added to wow analyzer?
Looking at this tool it does say that evasion gives 40% DR with elusiveness, but isn't it 36%? 0.2 x 0.8 + 0.2 x 1? Because it's 20% DR on top of the 80% damage you take after bait and switch? Or is it really additive? So just simply 0.2 + 0.2?
highly unlikely
Ah thats a shame, how come? 😛
We rather give advice than try to write something for a website
also no one plays sub
Aw thats a shame, sub is my only class for 5 years 😄 jealous of my friends able to use that site, seems like super powerful data to have access to, no worires though I can understand its a chore to keep up to date
You have access to the info via your logs
The only thing I like about wow analyser is its timeline, a lot simpler than the base wow logs one
And I like it overlapping key boss abilities
You can also use stuff like lorrgs to see cd usage.
guys why is it impossible to do +12 keys with pug, i mean literally noone wants to take me as sub rogue
Again. Readily available on lorrgs
Oh never had heard of that, thankyou!
Your ilvl is too low, your io is too low, you’re playing a spec with less than .1% playrate.
RIP Sub 😦 why no-one likes to play us haha
got everythin on +11 i mean what else can i do 😄
run your own key
Join a guild that focus on high m+ get a consistent group thats not a pug
dont even log on my keys
Pugs are just awful in high keys
So you’re complaining about not gaining invites and you won’t run your own key? 
no no im running them, but noone wants to join, even if someone que they have lower rio than me
ah I see
and its rly borring to wipe on first boss because ppl dont even know how to move
Guy has a post about this somewhere
Ty for saying it the way you did
Makes it fit even better
Easiest way to run keys is befriend a tank or a healer. Dps are a dime a dozen.
It's like. 2% of the time you playing sub is why you don't get invited
Guys, I've been thinking
I know we are used to sub by now
But the spec name subtlety does not sound particularly cool
Like, if you tell to someone who doesn't play the game
I'm a subtlety rogue
Sounds freaking weak
should be 40%
that's the reason why that talent is pretty strong
evasion becomes a huge DR
and you can combo it with feint and have 60% dr
Yeah, that makes bait and switch combined with elusiveness very strong indeed
Wait so even using 2 abilities you have no diminishing returns? So the 20% of feint is not on top of the 60% remaining damage you're taking after evasion? So again, it's not 40% + 0.2 * 60%, it's actually 40% + 20%?
Btw for Treacherous Transmitter we should macro it with flag? So we hopefully get the buff by the time we press Secret Tech?
Damage mitigated: 3,532,551 (52%)
If you look at spew disease on the tool you linked
with feint + evasion using elusivness + bait and switch
So I think it is indeed 40% + 0.2*60% = 40% + 12% = 52%
Yeah so feint + evasion = 52% on non-aoe magic damage, 64% on aoe magic damage
because you do get DR on top of your first damage reduction ability
What else is there
I feel like sub should be the one called assassination as the theme is like to get in stealthily, get a kill and disappear
If you were to macro it you would macro it to flag yeah, i wouldnt macro it though personally and just have a keybind, that way you can position your character and spawn it where you want
What would Assa be called
I was thinking something like massacre, since it involves slashing everything around you to make it bleed and spattering poison everywhere
It's more messy for sure thematically
When I play assa I feel like Deadpool or something
Not like a sneaky assassin
Idk man, making people bleed is definitely some ass ass in shit
StabbyMcBleedy
Riposte
its not riposte week 
I play stabbyMcBleedy rogue
Sure, also poisons, but not in the way assa plays in wow
I always think of this mtg card when I think of assa
It does say human assassin tho
Hahha
routing top in 2024 will be like routing necrotic wake. you will play every pack in every wing and be short 30 count
get ready to play every platform before I-got-2-dispels-one-for-each-of-u
on the bright side
man 9 second kidney gon be so so so funny
Duel boss will be so good to piss off guildies again
i remember my old guildies hating doing that boss with me
"please dont send me down with stealthi, that fucker plays pvp"

i used to bully the fuck out of Puuki in there
I can imagine griefing puuki on that boss was pure content
it was
true 8 second kidney gonna go hard
"STEALTHI STOP I CANT PLAY THE FUCKING GAME MAN"
THIS BANNER IS LIVING FOREVER, ARE YOU GUYS DONE DOWN THERE YET
i just realized we have flurry in ToP
thank christ
sub isn't inting in there anymore
duel boss as sub was misery
so was 1st boss
Honestly i think s2 dungeon pool looks pretty good even though most people are dooming
Im only afraid of darkflame cleft
all the TWW dungeons will be a tuning fiesta on the first few weeks
Ye but thats always like that
until they massively tune to the point where it's not agony
true!
S2 is looking like a hard season ngl
i vaguely remember something about necro frost needing to have uptime to extend their necro form
so the frost mage i got title with in S2 would beg everyone to let him win the duel
haha classic
if i had to sit and listen to him complain about icy veins for 7 hours straight
then the one chance i have of bullying him
im gonna take it
my favorite was every sanguine weekj
i would spend 7 days listening to how much he hated sanguine in every key
and you know puuki
because frost mage and sanguine was funny
FF14 gamer now
hey fellas, is there a list of abilities feint and cloak work on for this raid
if anyone would have a list like that, it would most likely be @alpine wraith
aight
but some of the guides might have info
did you also try ff14?
long time ago
not your cup of tea ?
not much of a fan of the combat
betrayer
what the fuck is doing this much dmg?
+12 boss cant possibly do this much right?

Hope you're doing well mr tokin 
Puuki gone to FF14?!
I think it's this shield ability from the pally
I am, prog over chilling in farm 
For a while now, he stopped wow kinda when i joined bloom
Yes
.......
I swear I saw him in DF
well he blamed me for losing so much hp
Maybe I am trippin
what the fuck is wrong with him
He stopped after aberrus iirc
Dunno the correct name of it
Ye I'm pretty sure I done some freeholds with him so that would add up
its a good game
Holy bullwark or something like that
your paladnin
you put weapons on players
and its like a perma link
for the tank
he steals your hp
💀
yea that hero talent is banned on some places
ok i get the talent but why would he pretend like he doesnt know why i lose hp
healer was curious why im losing so much
and tank said he probs stepped on smt
i was clueless as well
because he prolly dont know either
you would be surprised
how little people that perma reroll
know about their spec
cant see anything in their guides warning people about that
how did talent like this make it to the game wtf
giving your hp to ally is fine but outright stealing it from someone without consent is the worst design you can have
Someone gets targetted and the holy armaments start sapping my hp
Then i get targetted
I have never been 100-0d so fast
Hpal banned
Madge
Yeah i was pretty surprised to see it added
And it catches me off guard because theres like zero indication that its on you
I know when I'm taking damage from sound ques and knowing the pack
Those armaments are sneaky
Add another reason to hate paladins
Yeah for sure, was just curious if those would yield a higher dps. But it seems like most using the on use and passive
Will def try testing it out later and see the diff between em
Btw, do I have some setting wrong or secret technique no longer spawns shadow clones
Just some daggers
😦
Why can't we have nice things
I remember I played sub some years ago and that was so cool
Actually I was hoping that the trickster flavor would include shadow clones
I mean the clones weren’t exactly nice things.
just rogue animations are so abysmal any bread crumb seems amazing (poison bomb
)
i love how when i apply to groups as sub i dont get in, so i apply as sin and sneaky swap
i dont get it either sub is feelin so good rn
I don't even think sin is better than outlaw/sub in low keys even
Like under 11s type of things
ikr
Sin can't even press cds
- first dance
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Subs cds are often still up when the pack dies too
It is what it is
well, you just waste sin cds tho
its way too much prio damage
even in high keys i sometimes waste half of it
Just do what I do and play with friends who do half my damage. Shits still alive when my CDs fall off. 🤣
how does this work?
because i cant reuse another SoD after the first one is expired
dont spam the key
It's not called Ass for nothing
Fucking chills
juicer
nicu
on Ovinax we use BP for parasites right ? not eviscerate ?
still evis
is 1.3Mil overall decent? im having a hard time doing above that on m+
depending on key it’s mid
Likely need to be more aggressive with CDs, but a lot depends on key, level and other dps
This is a pug 11 stone vault with near bis gear if u want a frame of reference
Feel like I get anywhere from 1.8-2.1 depending on dungeon/comp
Would u say its a good idea to play sub in GB +13 with enhancer + aug? 😄
or will they kill me midkey? 😄
i am thinking rn about the old switcherino
sub is decent in gb because of speedshroud and the rp you can use superchargers
ye i am just afraid my dmg will be shit with the aug idk and no IW ofc
It's fun
Give a spec blade flurry, and remove dust and it's fun
Crazy how that works
2024 be wild
ty i think i hold onto blades and flag too often
you can precharge sod between packs as well
Also get 6-7 supercharges before starting the key
you can only get 2 before key begins
but depending on key you can also use a second one mayube
It does not care, at least it still didn’t on Tuesday (reset)
sorry for the question, has anyone the same problem and cant sim as sub on raidbots?
check you dont have any old apls etc
ah thx this whas the problem sorry
Hachadino are you EU?
I want to see 3 master rogues in a dps race. Who will play sub ??
just tried and charger reset to 2 after key began
it showed i had 7 then when i entered pull and used 1 finisher it went to 1
you overstimate me a lot if you think im a master ahaha
You are always sub ive seen you here awhile
damn 25% vers this dude is invincible
smh scath making me do a key on monday
but well time to sleep
and btw i dont mind doing that maybe tomorrow if everyone is there i have a mists 10 for the giggles
yea im in eu
Ye it does that now, fairly sure it was stacked all the way before but i could be wrong
It resets escalating and sht to 0 as well
So no prepull shenanigans 
@tribal blade Rampin 
Was 8s overtime on a nw 15 as well
How you like sub in the higher keys
I am getting outdpsed by enhancement shamans with PI though
why do you have stats in middle of the screen
U see what I did today
Look at this dude 
I like that sub is just the grim reaper of low keys
huge!
chills
Literal chills
enh shaman at 1.32m
was he dead on pull or what
ngl though enh does so much damage
without timelessness
its a bit of a pain to pug with a shaman
perma watching my duo get one shot dropping 12m tempest
on opener
@hazy breach i got completely stuck for an eternity trying to time a single 15
between getting no invites and other people inting every single one, it was torture
i always queue as sin
and then if it's a dungeon i play sub, i swap before the key starts
i haven't had a single person mad at me doing that
it's usually "oh shit sub is back??"
my IO isn't high enough to warrant queueing as sub
Ye most are just surprised sub does damage
try it but swap from aug to dev
exactly!
i got complimented on my boss dam in a DB
Do you record any of your high sub keys?
nah not at all
i'm not near good enough to stream i think
Man you should even just raw gameplay would be cool to see in the 14-15 range
hopefully can convince one of the other big subs to stream all their keys 😉
Dont think twitch saves the VODs
Even if i did
You need to get some sort of status thing for that to happen
does the damage amp of symbols/dance..etc snapshot and apply to ST at the time of activation or only once the damage hits?
!up
TFD > WM if you get 1 proc every 5 minutes or something
some dungeons you get it a lot
CoT and DB is really good
I personally never run nado either
i was just using it to get cds back
running no nado is fine
technically better for aoe
(nado is technically better)
but i stopped using it in keys and have 0 regrets
ok i finally played with a top tier enhance, this shit is illegal
@tribal blade did u juts run that 15 dawn
YES
im billee
HAHAAAA
pc crashed
you made me look like a small child
although when the first boss positioning got fucked i was crying
what does velitouched enhance in our abilities?
all magic
did u know tank
all shadow and nature damage
yes....
we don't really talk anymore, but he's on my friendslist from S2 DF
but like i was saying he's a bit of a dingus
like when he killed us both on the boss
yeah
he wiped us both times
i didnt even move, i was just standing there
haha not surprised, i tend to spam sub chat sometimes
i started to move back in because usually once the tank is out they plant
so i could maintain uptime
sub is really painful atm if you can't maintain 100% uptime
he also went to do an easy trash pack
while our lust was off cd
and i had my cds ready for lust
ye i only play it on random 10s for vault
Watch wp and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
HAHAAAA
amazing
i was like "not like this"
yeah they're not bad
esp the easy 15s
but every time i do them, something always happens
and it bricks the key
it took me legit countless attempts to finally time a 15
this is what my first timed 15 looked like
ara of course, so the timer is so free you can have someone doing negative dps and time
1.53 
not trying to one up you but my first 14 was an arara and the spriest we had did 1.1mil
but ggs, i felt bad i left mid convo i reset my pc
no worries at all! i appreciate you coming in here to let me know
you can add me at Prophet#13478 if you want
btw i have a 15 mists
which i can send sometime tonight
would love to get you in
we never rupture before cds right?
feels like it takes way too long to spread them
in m+
I rupture on the flag finisher before transmitter stuff and inbetween packs
But there's no time to spread ruptures, and then cooldown
lmk when, i could be down
but not too pressed to do it if u wanna run without me, might int some dayz
sounds good, i'm eating right now
i'll hit you up
is there by chance a log review channel?
!logs
do a !logs, and hopefully someone can check out your logs, I probably wont have time until after friday tbh, but maybe u can ask stealthi/ eleem/ many others to look into it
!up
Anyone got that sectec weakaura that tracks how much damage it does
Mythic is even lower lol
Oh shit it actually went up a little, 3.8k
It was sitting at like 1.5k a little while ago
you can use xephui and edit it for rogue abilites
like I did
Thanks sir
there's a standalone one if you google that
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
here's mine if you want it
only shows finisher dam (evis, coup, and sectech)
Thanks dude
yo genius Subs, you guys doing the hold CB for second sectech on Silken? or just ripping on first like normal?
I've been messing around with the CB on second sectech thing
and you can get the second sectech in the 1:30 damage amp if you flag skinny girl 0.5s before she leaps away and use first global sectech on charge boss
y'all think that's worth, or the damage you gain from the second sectech CB is lost bc Flag lash damage on non damage amp boss?
have had some pretty good prog parses from doing this:
but non kill parses are cooked, so
not sure if worth or not
short answer from what i heard is yes, it's better to hold CB for second sectec in cds
but it's fine to just rip it on 1st
yeah, I'm just wondering with Silken specifically, or do you mean on Silken specifically
if you don't want to use the additional brain power to think about CB usage
I know it's better normally
oh silken specifically i have no idea
i modified a different WA for garrote, does anyone know how to fix this error
nvm i think i figured it out
@spark tusk should know, but I think it has something to do with CLEU not being filtered on anything. WAs doesn't like that anymore
i just literally deleted the line it said was causing the issue in the custom string thing
and that seems to have fixed it
omfg i got kicked from a group because the lead wanted to invite yoda
this guy has been actually inting me this season
The short version is that an old, raw method of ingesting combat data is being used in that aura that WeakAuras does not like and wants people to stop using so it throws up those errors. There are more modern ways to get at this data that should be used instead. Simply removing a line would probably not fix this specific error. If it crops up again, you can let me know if you want me to look at updating and adapting it for the newer methods.
Or, alternatively, you can just grab my imp garrote aura 
true! i should probably just grab yours 😉
It's on my collection page
oh interessting, didn't know they faced out combat log events
Just unfiltered
makes sense it was quite expensive
It's just that you can't have a raw COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED in the trigger list
you can still do CLEU:SPELL_CAST_SUCCESS and things like that, those are perfectly fine
ahh, good to know
Or you can do watched triggers which is what I mostly do any time it's possible instead. Just make a second trigger which is Combat Log: Event Type, etc, then use TRIGGER:2 as the event in your custom trigger
That way any time blizzard updates the event payloads, weakauras handles managing that, and I just use what they have which will remain the same
everytime i see you guys talking about coding and stuff
as a complete non tech person
it isn't too difficult
to me it's like rocket science
but basically, unfiltered combat log events gives you a big list of events because they are not filtered
it is better to use a filetred function because you get less data which is computational less expensive
basically, do less work = better
it all sounds complicated but most things in programming are simple
If you’ve ever clicked around in Conditions tab and modified or made your own logic, it’s the same though process just less restrained.
I'm coming for you awang
did some details update change how sectech is shown there ?
can anyone share their secondary stats?
Details dont show the full potential of sectech but logs do
i thought it did at some time
details still doesnt fully show sectec?
it does
yea if u cast it once u can look in details but how if u cast it many times?
@sinful sluice @lucid jackal who do you step to in p3 for queen
16k vers 12k mast w/e the rest
Mage
yea step ernesto pedro
Thanks
I stepped a warrior, just anybody thats reliably alive and makes it over 
what if my entire raid team has a tendency to die a lot

by the way is there a way to macro stepping the tank you have in your party
i use mouseover
kind of like the auto tricks addons
on party frame
i've just been manually targeting the tank and stepping
2 more clicks
which isn't the worst thing in the world, it's a bit slower but still works
ye
our mages had the tendency to blink at the last possible moment so I ended up taking the gate instead
Same, switched from mage to warrior
Imagine your warrior not being dead
just dont die ^^
maybe if i could give my raid team cheat 😉
like symbiosis
Is there any high key sub rogue streamer with action tracker pls?
Hello i have a possibly really stupid question. Im progging queen atm and when we get pulled in P2 i have focus on the beam add so i can step to it when i get pulled so i make sure i dont get hit by the beam. However my step @focus macro doesn't always work i feel while regular step just out of the spellbook always works without any issues. I know that if we stand on the edge while getting pulled step wont work to bring u back but im standing in the middle of the platform to be safe now and the focus step macro still doesn't work, here is the macro i use it works without any issues outside of this one scenario.
#showtooltip
/cast [@focus] shadowstep
or could it be that sometimes the beam add is too close to the edge so the step cant put me behind it?
If you are over the edge you can’t step back onto the platform most of the time
ye that i am aware of, which is why i stay closer to the middle of the platform to make sure im not over the edge but sometimes it just doesnt work even if im not over the edge
Hmm. Are you taking one of the portals and swapping sides?
the problem im having is on first platform only in P2 and im not taking any portals there
i take portals on 2nd platform
Hm
Welp
Idk i just dumped 1 dance with CDs into platform one then manually targeted the beam dude on the yoink
ye i tried just targeting it a couple of times and just stepping to it with regular step from the spellbook and that works
its just the focus macro that doesnt work sometimes and its driving me insane haha
Only thing i can think of is you not having your focus step macro in stealth/not outside of stealth
Because it works
Yeah. It may have something to do with the fact that there are 2 of them at that point in time?? But ur still focusing a specific one so idk why that would affect anything
i checked this and i do have the focus macro on both my regular bar and stealth bar
idk maybe i add to target my focus into the macro and see if that works
like target and then target last target
seems a bit stupid to have to do tho
Apologies for a question that's probably asked often but. I'm coming back after not playing rogue for a long time.
How is it rn in pvp and is it still "I do 40 things to do what you do in 4"? Lol
Ty for the link
Hi fellow rogues. Is there a place to find useful macros? Playing sub again been away from it since SL.
!macro
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.
Cheers bro
why isnt the Symbols macro with those
wonder why
i personally feel like dance+symbol macro is good for openers

!sod
Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
Yeah, I like dance+symbols macro but I'm def noticing it being even less good these days
But I am lazy
I should just ween myself off it at this point
why we sectec before shadowblades in opener ?
Anyone here done the Mage Tower challenge lately?
We use sectech as our first finisher to get it on cooldown so we can get it back up quicker during our second dance
And we delay blades because we already have premed giving us full CP
doesnt sod have a grace period to not double press
im a big double presser and i never double press that thing
And blades doesnt work on sectech anyway
it resets depending on ur timing of other spells
Yes it got hotfixed a couple of weeks into the patch
uh what
if u use a spell with a grace period to not double press at the same time as another spell, it skips that grace period and lets u press it again
its hard to do but it does happen
most noticeable with shadowstep, happens with PS on disc also
Do we not use SoD with every dance? Why is it bad to have them macroed together?
ah
that sounds mega irrelevant
but good to nkow
We only use dance during SoD yes
But you sometimes use only SoD
And during your burst so specifically do not want to use them at the exact time
The second use of them* during burst
Oh so its for cases you press SoD first and few globals after Dance?
we essentially align symbols with secret, so only use it if we can use secret with one of the supercharger point
*points
am i doing something wrong if i have sectech up with no charge of dance and sod available ? or i'm suppose to sit on it until i get them back ?
If youre using dance without getting a sectech inside it yes
But as long as you have a sectech inside your dances its going to be up earlier, because it has a shorter cd
Or get more cdr per combo point rather
Ok so if i always sectech in dance, it's normal to sometimes have it up and not press it to have cds back up
tldr is like :
- send everything on pull (in order) and refresh once dance and sod during burst (2 sectec used)
- send 1 charge of dance+sod when sectec is back up (2 times probably ?)
- hold everything until you have flagel+sblades back up
- repeat
am i right ?
Yes, the non-burst dance(s) can be moved around if needed
You typically only get 2 dances in between on the first "rotation"
But it depends
Thoughts on weaponmaster vs TFD for keys?
WM is close to useless in aoe
Go TFD all the time
doesn't it proc nimble flurry / extra cp gen?
It doesnt flurry no
well that's surprisingly simple
Which is probably a bug
But like
TFD is surprisingly close even on a 5 min ST fight
goes to show how shit weaponmaster became I guess
ok i think i get it 🙂 it's a bit complex at first with all the cds when to use when to not use, thanks for helping !
which is wierd, this is the highest relative dmg breakdown for shadowstrike i've seen since shadowlands
WM is basically useless in aoe, doesn’t flurry. TFD is all sorts of wins.
Swapping RS for WM maybe, if you’re sick of the RS bug.

TFD is just good
4 more globals of damage on a lot of packs where you dont have flag ready
But tbf all the talents that you could pick instead are all very bad
tfd helps you do more damage at the start of a pull
season 2 is too far away to make predictions
tfd is very strong yes idk if we ever asked koji again to implement a # times used in a sim
feelcraft spec
well more like with the way our cdr is krangled getting a super dance every so often is quite valuable
A mage probably
very pog
finally, ringworms!
the wormer finally yes
jesus christ. I'd cry tears of joy if I only got only one of those
5 weeks of useless shit 
i haven't been able to sub since i didnt have a transmitter, but maybe its a sub on reclear angle this week 
why wouldn't you be able to sub without the transmitter?
isn't it technically 'the best' trink for everyone? just that other ppl recommend against it due to its annoying on-use?
or is it SPECIFICALLY THE BEST trink for sub only
it's particularly good for sub because it's 1.5m
when are they gonna uncap gilded
assa also runs skardyns and double on-use is cringe, so thats why most people don't, but yes it's technically bis for assa too
for fucks sake!!!!
my st sim says to take a socket and dungeon slice says to take spyglass, thoughts ?
wait is shuriken storm 2 target or 3+?
spyglass is big meh, especially in dungeons where it can proc on the wrong target or a target about to die. socket it up
tyvm
is the shadow-binding knife good? i can't remember if it was here or sin that was low key sleeping on it
it is very good for its ilvl yes
i thought i recalled people searching for a hero track over other tirnkets, wasn't sure
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Just came in 😂
sadly that is conquest
Were fairly soon at the point of the cap not mattering anyway
yea tbh only in 3 weeks
didn't know today was chinese mdi
ahh okay
We’re raiding today but have only reached p3 once so far
CAP REMOVE PLS
Probably not until next reset
But maybe, it was technically filled before US reset
remove crests entirely 
I think it was. like 220 kills or soemthing by last night
I think they closed it before Na reset
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
finally 😭 im so happy, can finally play sub to its full potential
finally free
i think that was just WCLs showing boosted chinese kills. the official HoF on the wow site didn't hit 200 until like 7am EST this morning
still before reset tho
Nah it hits 200 like 1½ hour before US reset
The official list
twinning!
i can also finally try out sub 
they will remove some that are boosted guilds
namely some korean ones and some TW and chinese
but i think it might still close anyway
Does anyone have a macro for me that helps me step on a specific player?
In queen prog, my mouse over macro is not really working too well in p3
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
simplest is to step focus, if you're not using your focus for anything else
and assuming you are always trying to step the same person?
you can make a macro that literally says target=nameoftheplayer
Yes worked 🙂
!sod
Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
what exactly does the cqs do?
cancels a queued spell
Why does Overclocked Gear-a-Rang look so good on Bloodmallet?
because bloodmallet doesn't have talents
mandate is 90% of your damage
(10x damage)
Hell yeah, thanks Mike. Appreciate the help.
For sub specifically it doesnt have any talents
It should be fixed next time they run their sims again
But they dont do it that frequently
Myth track chest is the play here then I assume. Was just making sure I wasn't passing on some crazy trinket, lol.
can always sim and exclude the trinket
or include it, bloodmallet is the borked part
is there a way to sim different flasks? Such as simming between mastery and versa flasks
idk if you can sim them all at once, but you can do a quick sim with each one selected and run diff sims and compare the dps
ah nice, first pin
Ye but theres effectively no difference between them
yeah I think its like 1k dps between mastery and vers flasks for me
!macro
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.
what was the transmitter flag macro
/use 13
/cast Flagellation
Doesnt seem to be working
is your transmitter in the correct slot
yes
its on slot 13
it sometimes works, sometimes it doesnt, usually it doesnt
Do you have it (the macro) only on your stealth bar?
trickster
do i repeat the spread ruptures a few times untill for example 6+ targets?
or is it just a one time press to get it to spread to 2-3 targets?
If damage to the targets are relevant and theyll live through your flag yes
usually on bigger packs on higher M+ that might be the case theyll live trough the flag duration
so for example a huge first pull pack will be me tabbing and spreading the ruptures multiple times before i continue with the rotation
Most of the time you just send cds immediately
Stuff just doesn’t live long enough
ah okay, ill just rupture one target then continue, shuriken flag (tab to other) and do one rupture and send it going for shadow evisc's after
is it me btw or does the extra full row of combo points you sometimes get throw me and my shadowstrike/backstab and eviscerate finisher off sometimes
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Yes, likely because of RS
what is RS?
The 2x rupture talent
That for some reason causes delays with shadowcraft refunds sometimes
ah so it comes from rupturing twice
No
It has nothing to do with rupture
It comes from taking the talent
i miss it loads
because iam so used to getting a full bar of points and then just using a finisher
but is it a bug or is it not?
!bugs yes, it’s listed under here
Rogue Bug tracker: Bugs - Subtlety Rogue
athank you
is it a totally random thing then aswell? because i cant replicate it for life and it happens totally randomly for my idea
wat?
most of us here play it
Just capping on you guys legit though is there any bosses in the raid where you would take sub over sin ?
I like both but logs are just bpm barded with fast kills so nothing I can make of it
there are fights where it can absolutely feel smoother or maybe more dependant on group makeup perhaps
but it's really just a comfort thing between the 2 apart from obvious bosses like brood
or you can see my videos too or the faq
Perfect which of the guides would you recommend
im biased so just wait for someone else to reply lul
totally depends on how you like to learn or how much context/knowledge you're starting with hey, some like the visual aid, but if you need spoken context to grab concepts faster the video guides will 100% better
Like I'll look at an image of an example rotation and be like "oh yeah ok" and leave
I look at something I do it and then I’m good I start practicing
just hit dummies
I have a massive love of peeps who like to make video guides like Had or Whispyr in the sin channel
Some peeps just aren't sly learners from reading material
is the best guide
yeah agreed but you need to have a lot of baseline understanding for dummy tutorials in order to avoid bad habits or knowlege gaps
thats how we end up with the dreaded "feelycraft" pandemic
I respect the videos that go into the small details
Like small mechanics you can get dps increases out of EG for sin with the way of pooling correctly to prevent tea procs etc
especially with sub - this spec is still a little on the odd side with it's short cds, feels fairly flowy to an older hand, but brand new peeps to the spec probably find it really disjointed
It’s a weird spec it just seems to not flow correctly for me like you say
almost everyone I talk to immediately starts off with a fear of just USING dance/symbols
I was a big fan of nighthold/antorus sub too yeah
It amount of burst that was possible was incredible
But even then the way it worked with symbols and shadow dance was weird
You have good flow
I think it does now yeah, but then I also liked shadowdust
I did setup my stream so i can yoink vods for youtube today, but keys today have been kinda disastrous 
I do kinda wish for a day where we'd perhaps see it in a sitch where good/correct play would allow you to maintain dance windows in terms of playstyle
but w/e
I Llike it
I highly suspect the next tier set is gonna give us some more dance uptime to make it more straight forward
Probably something like get/extend dance on blades casts so we dont need 1½ charges of dance before using cds but can instead just go if we have one charge
yeah something like that owuld be good hey, I feel like a lot more peeps would gravitate towards the spec for feel if that were the case
as is I totally understand when people refer to it as "unintuative"
its really not that unintuitive before
ITs pretty easy
But idk, this spec is just "hard" for people,. always have, likely always will
I can't imagine they could even dumb down the rotation even more than where its at right now
I think so too, but I understand why peeps say it, it has a different baseline to a lot of specs
Not using cooldown when theyre ready is hard for a lof of people
even in aberus, when this spec was mega auto pilot, ppl said it was hard
especially when the other half of the spec is centered around fucking sending the short cds - But only correctly
Idk what it is abt sub, it's just so hard for a lot of ppl
it's just because it doesnt quite work the same way as most specs because you have short buff cds that are necessary and not just "helpful"
most specs you can just PLAY without utilising the set up things
kinda like new people playing outlaw and not understanding youre trying to maintain ADR
and they're like trying to save it for big targets etc
"it's my cd though" y'know
would it ever be worth using skardyn's grace as a second trinket with transmitter for keys? im being offered mythic in my vault
I think it's more just sub is considered the "hard spec" lol so this narrative just continues forever
Never
Wasn’t the main unintuitive thing pre-rework just DM stacks?
it's only the hard spec BECAUSE it's unintuitive
most peeps try it out for an afternoon, feel like they don't understand and never return
"too hard"
but almost everyone who gets past that little hump are like "oh OHHHHHHH ohh, got it, nah this isn't bad at all"
Ppl have said sub is hard and obtuse since forever at this point even at its most dumbed down points
felt for the other rogue in my guild on amirdrasil prog, borderline lifetime sin one trick trying to learn sub on the fly one night mid smold prog
I liked it, I completely understand peeps dislike of it though
The way we use macabre is still very unintuitive (aka we dont use it "at all"), transmitter is definitely rough until you get used to it and not having 2x dances up for your cds is gonna tank your damage
But ye its definitely not as hard as people seem to think
I think I started playing sub in SL? And that seemed pretty easy iirc. I dunno.
I don't mind transmitter hey, I find it so much easier to use than fucking branch was
I'm like borderline convinced that almost everytime someone says "branch was easy" they actually just used it horribly and never bothered to check
I think pad is my favorite
It’s still unintuitive as far as majority of wow specs go because it is different. There’s stuff that we start to take for granted like what is real stealth. The DM stacks (as mentioned), why 2 90 second CDs are not used at the same time. It all adds up while trying to learn it vs playing a dps spec that you hit what’s lit up.
Yeah, thats definitely it, I feel like when you're an older hand to rogue baseline stuff, or even just have an actual solid understanding of spec flow it clicks into place fairly easily.
But the vast majority of players don't have those things. And the majority of specs in the game cater to that lack of context MUCH easier to a newer player
rogue just isn’t popular and a lot has to do with the overall gameplay across all three specs. As simple ass assa is, it’s still too much for a lot. Plus our visuals just suck. 
But it's one of those things like, when you HAVE the knowledge you have it, you can't go back or see it like that anymore
You're no longer new
But in the OLD days we were all running around with spirit on our gear, or underestimating hit rate etc lol
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
rogue needs better visuals period
give us kyveza animations
uncapped line skillshot called regicide 
I read it here a while ago, but Nexus prince themed hero talent would have been sick for outlaw/sub
Outlaw has one already. Killing Spree 
how cool would it be if sectech had regicide animations
with each clone having its own animation
but then you'd get some ppl malding going "my line goes all the way over here. why didn't it hit that mob
Nice
was hoping for transmitter, but this is the next best thing
I just failed a GB15 by 15s because our priest died to the aoe on the last boss at 1% 
noooooooooo
That wouldve been so much score
that's the moment everyone sends every single defensive possible
damn yeah unlucky
Depression
dw, my guildie and i timed a 14 GB while carrying a bad ret whose key it was
so it's not that bad to get on a 14
You say that
hahaha
But my track record of trying it today has not been good
Had a tank walk of the ledge at the second boss
That was great
GB is one of those keys where 1 person makes a mistake
and dies
and everyone dies
HAHAAA epic
the last GB i failed i got stunned by a caster in the lavabender's frontal
so i couldn't move out, get 1 shot, running back and the entire group pretty much insta wipes
i was watching kush's 17 GB they failed
it's a pretty epic one, they bricked it in the same way you did
noahw died on the last 17% of the last boss
and then there's silence in discord except naohw popping off about how mad he is
Hi guys do you have/know where I can find replays of keys from a sub pov ?
there isn't really anyone atm, but i haven't checked in a week or so
Oh ok, 😔
i did that on my dh!
didnt even know u can fall into the lava
but i dashed like a pro dh
ez
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Whats the talent swap to run first dance? i wanna give it a try
weaponmaster is what you would drop
anyone love first boss of ara
when someone goes "rogue why you not hitting adds"
like brother I do legitimately tank damage outside of CDs
it don't matter in all honesty
like first set, I'm not doing dam to
sorry buster
because I just sent the boss to 60% hp
depending on the key level as sub you can kinda just sit on the boss if you have a big ranged
but if not just move off boss, spread ruptures and if dance is up just send a dance
yep
but people don't understand sub
so they see me not get off boss on first set
and go "rogue funneling boss gg"
like second set, I'll send a lil dance-y dance
it's a little awkward trying to do anything to the adds as sub outside of cds
but first set, you got me fucked up if you think I'm leaving
Its worth slightly more than half of WM at a 5 min sim
Ye but might aswell run out and get some extra cp ig
very true
it at least feels really good to get those adds out as sin
If you have vanish up ye, otherwise its a bit meh
Hypothetically.... (please don't tell me to sim it), would you rather have two 639 weapons and go with two Dawnthread linings..... or 1 639 weapon, 1 636 weapon with Ascension and a socket in bracers.
why do you think people make decisions like that based on feels
if you're against simming it that implies that you have a preference in a particular direction, so just go with that
the CORRECT answer is to sim it though
that's too many variables to feelycraft it i feel
I am not against simming. I overly sim and I am constantly changing my gear for like a 1,000 damage increase.
1000 is borderline margin of error, I wouldn't stress over it
That is why I asked what others would do. Especially if you're doing M+ and raiding.
It's like so close that I'm curious.
It's just whatever you prefer at that point. It really doesn't matter.
Like Annsie said, it's basically margin of error
did tricks always go away on death
It is bad to macro transmitter to flag?
No its completely fine
The ideal time to finish the task is for the sectech cast
But a few seconds earlier or later isnt the end of the world
is deathstalker significantly ahead on sikran and nexus princess? if not i prefer the way trickster plays unless that isnt ideal
ok perfect tyty
Anybody happen to have just a standalone symbol charge tracker? My WA set doesnt track the charges of it but I dont wanna change my wa pack LOL
Just add a %s text in display for the SoD WA
You smart af thank you
is it worth playing Deathstalker just so i don't have to feel bad about not sectec'ing on cd
Nope
got transmitter today
