definitely like more deathstalker,did some pvp on my orc rogue so ik how to cook them cds

#

idk im rly hyped to play sub now

#

will see how it ends,gonna hit the dummy and do some low keys,chatting is lost time

haughty mural
#

i mean even in the sheet (if thats completely up to date), its not even 100k

#

and what are 100k nowadays 😛

#

but i get what you mean buddy 🙂

alpine wraith
#

deathstalker can be easier for some people

haughty mural
#

try out both and decide

alpine wraith
#

if you still didnt get used to trickster

haughty mural
alpine wraith
#

i mean it is even so easy to do the opener

#

strike flag rupture storm rupture mousever then just go in

#

if you dont have snd evis instead of first rupture

plush roost
#

Are people feeling DS on queen at all? In my head its more boss dam, more spiderling dam. But loses cleave on shackles and acolytes in p3 to trickster. Thoughts? I haven't pulled boss yet just thinking

#

Trickster on the surface looks like a shoe in, but idk maybe theres some tech

alpine wraith
#

both have their annoying things

#

on one hand coup deaths

#

on the other hand cdr krangle and parries

#

basicly nvm gonna make one myself

alpine wraith
#

not really you just use SoD when you are about to use sec tech again

#

as for cdr problems you kinda have to eyeball it i have some guidelines but they are not 100%

round latch
#

yup we want that boy going big

#

yeah im around that already

#

sub is fun

#

i dont like nado on trickster though

#

its weird

alpine wraith
#

yea tornado is not a biggest hit

vague oar
#

I'm lazy and I kinda just use sod in a macro with dance

keen dome
#

Same

vague oar
#

I just make sure sectec has <10s left b4 I dance

#

So it'll be either my first or second finisher always

plush roost
#

I like manual sod, it made getting triple dance before first charge on court more intuitive for me

vague oar
#

I liked triple dance. Kinda wish they didn't get rid of it

plush roost
#

Same

#

Who knows maybe next tier set will do something with dance cdr

swift tinsel
#

turns our shadow clones to goblins

vague oar
#

Make our next tier set be shadow reflections from wod plz

Gta my friend

Love that ability wish they'd bring it back

#

you never take first dance off

#

so you kinda change tornado for vt

round latch
#

using the fuu build,has no first dance or vt

#

need to search deeper

#

archon it is

hazy breach
#

Tfd resets doesnt work in sims

#

Wm stinky, use tfd

haughty mural
round latch
#

ah i cyup thx

#

just as my sim is poping

#

checking the numbers as well

#

not a big deal anyway

#

so it goes down to nado vs vt

cool cool

lethal mesa
#

the aoe build that is pinned in here is it more for aoe raid or M+?

vale pine
#

works for both

lethal mesa
#

is there a build more for m+ though or is that one pretty good on it

#

i did see people saying nado wasnt too good so i went with the other build on it

hazy breach
#

Not sure what the question is

#

Theres 2 different builds in the pins, one for m+ and one for raid, both for deathstalker

#

Oh i guess its because i worded it aoe and not m+

lethal mesa
#

all good ty

#

First dance and tornado give unbelievably high output in m+ if u ramp correctly, I really encourage people to try it

#

the first dance is rly nice

#

a bunch of minutes hitting 5 dummies as DB finality

#

the sustained pad in the form of rupture and CtB are not what i expected

DB and Finality both buff rupture so its not entirely surprising

maiden smelt
#

So currently sub rogue is better in raid then assa? thinking to swap for sub for rest of the tier

patent crystal
#

about the same

lucid jackal
#

4sure better

#

but u gotta play it properly and have the gear for it the same way u do with sin

#

all 3 rogue specs do abt the same damage so it's just about playing well and having the right gear setup

maiden smelt
#

Understood. Thank you

vestal escarp
round latch
#

coz my numbers say trickster is kinda better for m+ still

I use dark brew and finality over death perception and the rotten. I like the fantasy better and DB sims .05% worse for me. Plus when I play DP I get trigger happy and always overlap my symbols

#

how much better is sub than sin in raid?

Still gotta get DS down

Too used to slamming Cdr with trickster

DS hits much harder though

#

Yeah. For DS what's the rule on dance with flag remaining cdr?

#

I find I send dances then don't have quite enough

hazy breach
hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

Like when you stop dancing to have double for flag?

strange chasm
#

Like with trickster I know if I have 20s remaining on flag to hold a dance

#

And 40s on the 2nd charge

mighty ravine
#

o/ by curiosity, there is already any sim for new racial on 11.0.7 ? i know they arn't a big deal, but still curious :p

hazy breach
#

Maghar is slightly better than regular orc

#

But its shrugeg

mighty ravine
#

i'm curious on what zanda and vulp :p (yea i'm weak on cuty vulp... @_@ they have a so funny big bubble head xD)

vale pine
#

or we just dwarfing for bleed removal

mighty ravine
#

yea, that the opti way, not fun 😄 and not on horde side ( 😢 )

#

look this little cuty shit, he say I will stab your toes !

worn cape
#

So, for the burst window I have been doing Flagellation -> Shadow Blades -> Shadow Dance -> Symbols of Death -> Shadowstrike -> Secret Technique. But from Eleem's video I just realized that both Shadow Blades & Shadow Dance give me full combo points, so using them right after eachother is kinda dumb. From the video I am gathering that I should do Flagellation -> Shadow Dance -> Symbols of Death -> Shadowstrike -> Secret Technique -> Shadow Blades -> Shadowstrike -> Eviscerate, is that correct?

vale pine
#

burst window every 1.5 minutes is
flag first then 2x dance/symbols/secret, dance casts back to back

hazy breach
#

after the flagellation

#

Before you go into dance to have a couple extra flag stacks

#

Hi deathstalker in M+ is now ok, but we play more with Suriken et Black powder ?

lilac stag
#

Yes. Tricky still marginally better in m+

alpine wraith
#

yea for the general public trickster and deathstalker are almost the same

#

only big pullers into bosses deathstalker comes ahead

teal olive
#

but tricktser play around Nimble flurry. DS is only playing around Shuriken and black powder ?

lilac stag
#

Tricky plays around nimble and black powder

#

evis is more prio, bp is more aoe

#

You just don’t shuriken a lot

teal olive
#

Yes but powder is worth for big pulls, 5 targets i play evis

hazy breach
#

5 targets you bp

#

4 targets evis

#

But you gotta use a rotten charge on storm to apply find weakness

#

Then you keep striking (this is all for trickster)

teal olive
#

ok but DS is only around Shuriken and bp

hazy breach
#

And eviscerate with darkest night ye

teal olive
#

both hero specs are doing fine in M+ so its a good news for Sub

lilac stag
#

Nah. deathstalkermark can be taken out back and shot.

#

Fucking awful

teal olive
#

You play Trickter in raid ?

lilac stag
#

Yes

swift tinsel
#

Its beautiful

#

Trickster called to wish me a happy birthday, Deathstalker left a flaming bag of poop on my doorstep

sinful sluice
#

what do you guys think of ovinax ring on sub

#

super high mastery but haste is just bad for the talent right?

worn cape
hazy breach
#

Ideally full

worn cape
#

but if it would take multiple backstabs to get full CP, then not?

hazy breach
#

Well if youre at 0 its fine to just send

#

But you should try to be at full

#

(aka just dont eviscerate if flag is ready)

worn cape
#

Right, get full CP, then flag and then eviscerate

alpine wraith
vestal escarp
#

kekstalker

alpine wraith
#

ideally you play boe ring and the one from dawnbreaker

#

or a crafted one

sinful sluice
#

yeah

#

im just using high vers boe ring + crafted

#

alpine wraith
#

or not if they dont buff it

#

what did ya guys vote on ulgrax logs?

alpine wraith
#

what vote

sinful sluice
#

i think if we exlude adds dmg no ones gonna ever do dmg to adds = cancer

#

they are doing a vote on wow logs

jaunty heath
#

You can vote on add dmg across the raid

sinful sluice
#

whether they should remove adds dmg or just remove from allstarts

theres vote about queen ansurek tombs as well

#

delete me suck ignore

#

but you need an on use thats for sure (skardyns or transmitter)

hazy breach
#

Just transmitter

swift tinsel
#

You're also sending blades without flag

hazy breach
#

LFR transmitter is better than mythic skardyn

#

Ive got a question regarding the deathstalker opener

worn cape
sinful sluice
#

after the regular opener(ss-flag-evis-vanish-ss-rupture-dance symbol-sectech-SB), i dont have second sectech back soon enough to use it on next symbol/dance

paper siren
sinful sluice
#

should i hold my dance/smbols a bit ? cuz this feels quite wierd

swift tinsel
#

there's a few times you're sending secret technique without symbols of death up as well

swift tinsel
#

Some target dummy practice with lining things up will def help

#

so you get a better feel for how the moving parts and cooldowns work together

paper siren
#

Ok ok I really appreciate the help

swift tinsel
#

Sure thing! There's also a log review thread you can start if you want people to look at them more in-depth but I think for now spending some time practicing with any of the wowhead/icy veins/method guides will help

#

because with sub especially, properly lining up your major and minor cooldowns makes or breaks your damage entirely

#

!guide

wicked joltBOT
swift tinsel
sinful sluice
#

in this kind of sitation i should hold my dance+symbols a bit until i get my sectech back for supercharger right?

plush roost
#

Yes, you want your first finisher in dance to be sec tec

#

Thats the lull in sub, backstab for cdr

sinful sluice
#

is it only me that i have to wait about 2 secs in first opner in order to use second sectech with supercharger

#

something seems really off but cant find out why

turbid saddle
sinful sluice
#

i use second dance when first dance is over, and symbols when first symbol is at 3secs

#

yeah but still, i end up doing two evis in a row to get sectech back

turbid saddle
#

its abit of a eyeballing thing depending on the unmber of procs u get and gcds u miss or not

#

generally just symbols when ur next gcd gets ur sectech back

#

u would still have symbols on u active

#

this would be around when ur symbols is around 2 or 1

sinful sluice
#

so its normal that its kinda tight right?

turbid saddle
#

wdym by tight

sinful sluice
#

i barely have sectech back for superchargers

#

or id have to wait ~2secs for sectech to get back for supercharger

#

so its like this

#

this time it was bit better but sometimes i have to wait 2~3 secs

turbid saddle
#

first thing i noticed is dont shuriken storm like that

leaden prairie
#

yo

#

wtf are these sounds

#

crazy

turbid saddle
#

xd

sinful sluice
#

its maplestory rogue soundpack lol

leaden prairie
sinful sluice
#

so do i ignore the clear the witness proc inside cd window?

hazy breach
#

Yes

#

Storm only replaces backstab, strike is better

sinful sluice
#

oki

#

i guess ill modify the WA to not pop during shadow dance

turbid saddle
sinful sluice
#

and for delaying the symbols, do i not cast it in 3 secs pandemic window of first symbols?

hazy breach
#

You can, but you dont need to

#

Since we have charges you dont lose anything by delaying it

#

And if you gain a supercharger on sectech by delaying, theres no reason not to

#

So you wouldnt symbols unless sectech has ~10s or so left of its cd

sinful sluice
#

damn i just realized how thoughtless ive been playing on sub

#

there was so much more to care about

#

e.g i just sent out dance/symbols even if i dont have angle for supercharger sectechs

turbid saddle
#

@hazy breach u dont use cb in normal dance/sectech if u know it wont be back for 2nd sec tech later in flag right?

sinful sluice
#

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

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.
haughty mural
turbid saddle
#

i wonder how big it actually is

#

since u prolly get more cb casts by just using it on every sec tec thats ready

hazy breach
#

The difference between only using it on second sectech in burst and macroing it is roughly 0.5%

turbid saddle
#

is that like a 5 min sim

hazy breach
#

Yes

sinful sluice
#

do i have to manually track CB for maxing my dmg as well?

turbid saddle
#

ok thats p good still

#

free id say

sinful sluice
#

ive been just macroing with sectech and never cared

turbid saddle
#

u can just ignore it and play with cb on sec tech macro

#

most ppl do that anyways

sinful sluice
#

alright

turbid saddle
hazy breach
#

both

turbid saddle
#

oh ok

#

thought trickster would be prolly bit higher

#

anyways ty feelsloveman

sinful sluice
#

imma bout to use DS for everythig except bloodbound horror and court

#

time to test out new black powder

bleak wind
#

DS better for second boss imo

alpine wraith
#

unironically tornado boss

#

and i hate it

#

happy i got my good log while no degen DS was possible

sinful sluice
#

so everyhing except court?

alpine wraith
#

you could play DS on court but it will be annoying

#

same as in queen

sinful sluice
#

yeah ive been doing assa DS on court

#

and juggling DS stacks is kinda aids

#

and sometimes have to use vanish for that

alpine wraith
#

as sub you can just strike

#

but still annoying

sinful sluice
#

so on bloodbound horror do i just torando - powder inside?

#

that seems quite chill

bleak wind
#

I would play trickster for queen as well

sinful sluice
#

ive heard queen is easier then court now

#

hopefully we can kill court this week and get to queen asap

alpine wraith
#

im playing trickster on queen

#

fuck DS

#

no parries in this town

bleak wind
#

DS felt very shit

#

also you wanna see something sad

#

I was dead for 40sec

alpine wraith
#

aaaay

bleak wind
#

lost like 100k+ probably besad

sinful sluice
#

what does that mean

#

92.59

bleak wind
#

that is uptime

alpine wraith
#

time alive kinda

sinful sluice
#

ahh

#

still got you 100

#

👍

bleak wind
#

ye but could've been miles ahead

alpine wraith
#

what boss was that

bleak wind
#

queen

#

missed entire second platform

sinful sluice
#

im planning to run sub this week for the raid

#

any tips for using cds outside the gimmicks?

#

its kinda cancer to stop dmg on cd window

#

should i just hold until its confrimed that im not the one

hazy breach
#

What stop damage

sinful sluice
#

so for example

#

on kyveza queensbane

#

if i use cds before and i get selected

lucid jackal
#

Its just 1 queensbane right

sinful sluice
#

i have to stop dmg for few secs right

lucid jackal
#

do u even lose a cast

hazy breach
#

Depends on killtimers, but mostly no

sinful sluice
#

so i was wondering if i only cast symbols+dance when its 100% safe to use

hazy breach
#

The only scuffed one is the pop at 3 min

#

But since you should probably hold onto your 4:30 pop for potions anyway might aswell delay the 3 min one so you cant get screwed over

lucid jackal
lucid jackal
#

CUz otherwise u lose potion

sinful sluice
#

im looking at logs rn

#

i never tracked potion tbh, do you guys use potions manually?

lucid jackal
#

nop

sinful sluice
#

ive just macroed it with flag

lucid jackal
#

Yep

#

U should just make sure that ur cds lineup with potion is all

#

matters on a few fights

sinful sluice
#

i kinda miss no brainer assa rogue rn

lucid jackal
#

play it then

sinful sluice
#

nah

lucid jackal
#

ALl 3 rogue specs r good rn okayge

sinful sluice
#

i wanna get better at sub

#

maybe 1 month of headbutting into raid will make me better

hazy breach
#

The pot thing applies to assa as well fwiw

#

(or any spec in the game for that matter)

fair stump
#

Maybe I'm just bad but I'm parsing less as DS than trickster on princess lol

alpine wraith
#

that can happen but it is less likely

#

3% is kinda on the rng factor too

#

same reason i went mastery instead of vers

#

more rng

#

just CRIT

fair stump
#

Not just parsing less, doing more or less the same amount of dmg than I did 10 ilvls ago

alpine wraith
#

skill issue likely

#

also i found a thing a bit

#

if you are outside cds and have 1 mark left

#

it is worth to build to 5 then pool until almost full energy

#

so you can do a double finisher kinda and not lose mark uptime

fair stump
#

Oh, 4 ilvls ago, not 10

#

I'll just stick to trickster, DS is too much skill issue for me

little saddle
#

Can i play sublety with dagger and sword

#

¿?

hazy breach
#

Technically yes, but you'd do significantly less damage

#

!oh

wicked joltBOT
#

Shadow Techniques is not normalized and this makes a slow weapon (axe/sword/mace/fist) in offhand significantly weaker and almost never worth equiping.

little saddle
#

ok thx 🙂

clever delta
#

why ppl still hating on sub, my 20 rank parse on silken is like 93 meanwhile rank 20 as assa would give like 98

coarse agate
#

Should I just Macro SD to SecTec?

sinful sluice
#

i dont think you can

#

you can macro CB

hazy breach
#

Would not recommend as you often end up striking after dancing, but yes sometimes you sectech right after dancing

#

But during your burst you can also end up using eviscerates, so theres no good spell to macro together

coarse agate
#

I see.. thank you.

#

What about Symbols of Death?

hazy breach
#

Also not ideal

coarse agate
#

I'm thinking about how to use Supercharger better

hazy breach
#

Its less bad than the previous suggestion, but if you'd do you would not supercharge one of your sectechs in the opener

#

Because ideally you dance and delay symbols a global or two

coarse agate
#

I see!

Ik i wouldn't play sub if i was rocking 14% haste, 4% verse and 27% crit

alpine wraith
#

that would be interesting yea

clever delta
#

idk i did not gear for any spec specially, you dont have much of chooose from

plush roost
#

I mean kinda same, but if i had to choose between bis sin setup or subpar sub I'd just play sin

fair stump
#

I always danced + symbols with 7cp for sectec

#

Not as a macro, but since I press them at the same time

alpine wraith
#

second dance you cant do that

hazy breach
#

Well your sectech isnt ready when your first dance ends

fair stump
#

I always assumed we didn't dance unless we had sectec

hazy breach
#

Well you want sectech in every dance yes

#

But you also want your dance inside blades and transmitter

#

And you can fit the sectech anyway, just not the first global

fair stump
#

So you keep dancing in cds?

#

I just waited the sectec cd

hazy breach
#

You dance twice backtoback yes

fair stump
#

And then danced

#

You hold symbols though, right?

hazy breach
#

Yesnt

#

You can use symbols when sectech has 10s left

#

Since one eviscerate is gonna make it be ready anyway

fair stump
#

So sectec would be the second charge?

#

Huh

hazy breach
fair stump
#

That will change my rotation a bit

I hope its a dps improvement

alpine wraith

wicked joltBOT
#

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

alpine wraith
#

you cant put it with dance

round latch
#

u can put it into sod though

#

its just stilly complicated

#

and its not worth it

#

the general idea behind cast sequence is the reset time as a ''block'' factor u put on the action

#

its something like

#

/castsequence [options] reset=condition1/... action1, action2, ...

sinful sluice
#

i have that macro on my sod but wanted to make it for my opener too

#

well if cant thats fine

#

from my experience,i woudl advice u,dont ever put dance on any short of cs macro

#

u can pact it,its a thing in pvp,even there ppl avoid it coz it backfires

upbeat sorrel
tribal blade
#

i'm practicing the BP rotation

upbeat sorrel
#

same its a little tricky outside of dance

#

i keep scuffing it

tribal blade
#

it's just the muscle memory of alternating between strike and BP is weird, it's never been a thing before

so mostly just trying to get it to the point where i can do that w/o thinking

outside of dance as trickster in aoe/m+, do i use BP or is it dependent if i have flawless form up

both of those sim better then double kukuri suprisingly

thanks for helping

#

the sod cs macro isnt the same as complicated cs macros btw

#

u can add many skills in a sequence,hence a sequence..

i might just fix my entire keysettings tbh

#

its really random since ive started wow this season and didnt know shit back tehn

#

then*

round latch
#

idk my man,this is kinda deep dive into macro/binding.Ive spend years on perfecting my binds n stuff but tbh i ditched pretty fast cs macros

sinful sluice

so i have opener macro on shift+q / evis on q

round latch
#

cool,thats awesome,bind to ur own comfort

#

thats binding all about

sinful sluice
#

yeah it might take some time for me to get used to it

#

but i really gotta do smt about them

#

haha what a mess i dont even use 3,4...

round latch
#

it might take time,takes practice but elevates ur control to a complete diff lvl

#

ye this has to be fixed

#

u can compress all those to mod macros

sinful sluice
#

cuz when ur new to game u kinda just fit everything on blank spot right

#

and i just got used to that cursed settings

round latch
#

yup

#

e.g u have shift- c for sap and c for flag which might be once moded

#

u can double mode it

#

use alt

#

😉

#

e.g ive got F => Feint,shift-F =>Clos,Alt - F evasion

#

all in one mod macro

#

also ctrl- F for tricks

#

just double checking, is bubbling wax still comparably good as it was at the start of the expansion?

do you guys think we see 20s being timed with the ring on the new patch

#

i heard one of the chinese dks say they likely time a 20, but seeing how incredibly difficult it is to time 19s already i'm not so sure

keen dome
#

Maybe, it's gonna be interesting to see how strong the ring is and how long it takes to get to that point.

tribal blade
#

yeah might see some 20s being timed, but i suspect it'll be just as rare as timing a 19 is right now

man i wish pugs could time 10s on a regular basis foxdding

but yea i could see 20s times with the ring

How’s court prog?

tribal blade
#

not too bad! we're basically almost done, just need to kill the boss

#

we're getting a lot of deep P3 pulls

lilac stag
#

sweet

tribal blade
#

it's usually dispels getting messed up on the final set wiping us

#

and people panicking in general

lilac stag
#

Ngl. 40 minutes of princess pulls were the happiest I’ve been in game in weeks.

tribal blade
#

haha dude i was so happy to prog princess

#

after the clusterfuck of ovinax

#

princess is also a super chill boss for rogues

#

just kill it 4HEad

#

I’ll take my blue prog parse and wear it proudly.

tribal blade
#

i'm looking forward to doing queen

lilac stag
#

especially for ignoring assa all tier. HOLY

tribal blade
#

i'm kinda over people killing me on court

#

i think court is honestly one of the most tilting bosses you can do in some ways

lilac stag
#

Queen looks easier than court now

tribal blade
#

if you're actually doing mechanics

lilac stag
#

Court looks like some Final Fantasy transplant into WoW

tribal blade
#

it's just very tilting when other people are messing up and it murders you

lilac stag
#

Can imagine

tribal blade
#

btw tip for court prog

#

is be very vocal about people not doing orb soaks

#

the drive bys are easy to fix because it's so obvious what happened

#

the orbs are less obvious

short radish
#

but its such a nice chill fight

#

maybe its the 30% DR talking though kek

lilac stag
#

I may have went into drill sergeant voice on last egg break when someone was 1 yards away from the break

tribal blade
short radish
#

yeah ikr

tribal blade
#

one time on court on my side we had 2 orbs about to go off, and i had 2 stacks

#

i called it and pinged it

#

then ran to get 1, the other went off and so i had 4 stacks and died

lilac stag
#

I have to figure out the defensives but even with my messed up eyes I’m enjoying it

tribal blade
#

i told my RL to check what happened, turns out 4 people next to the orbs had 0 stacks

#

so legit call people out

#

court is such a shitty fight when you have people who are either lazy or just plain bad

#

or trying to parse

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

People trying to purple on first kills makes me menty

haughty mural
tribal blade
#

it's really bad when melee are trying to greed uptime on court

#

they drop double orbs

#

which is fucking horrible

#

the other side on my raid has all the melee and tanks

lilac stag
#

I have a funny feeling we will be no melees again.

tribal blade
#

and they've got a bunch of fucking parse monkeys there

#

so i'm constantly soaking doubles

upbeat sorrel
#

Our first court kill and general prog was pretty clean no one getting too greedy

#

I think we were just tired of pulling the boss

upbeat sorrel
#

Sometimes I didn't even have orbs to pick up everyone already got them all lol

tribal blade
#

on my side i'm constantly calling and pinging

lilac stag
#

the first kills always seem to be super clean or like 3 people left alive holding on for dear life with a rogue trying to time use of evasion to tank.

tribal blade
#

and then usually ending up getting to 3 stacks

upbeat sorrel
#

Doing queen prog now its a bit tough but less overall mechanics I guess

#

Our damage was good though we skipped the last combo set of dispel and charge

#

Killed it during the dispel

lilac stag
#

Nice

upbeat sorrel
#

The determination buff makes it easier lol

tribal blade
#

apparently hpals can't really do orbs too

#

so the hpal is on our side and he's basically soaking almost none in P1

lilac stag
#

Our ovi kill lust felt wasted at the 6:15 mark or whatever it was.

upbeat sorrel
tribal blade
lilac stag
#

I would as well

tribal blade
#

than me dying to being at 3 stacks and an orb going off

#

me and the dh on my team have been really on top of orbs, and it's killed us many times

#

Easier to tell one person to stop playing sweeper and just pump, then pull someone off pumper mode

#

why is that btw

because they cant heal when theres no adds

#

its just really awkward

tribal blade
#

ahhhh gotcha

short radish
#

we had both of htem on same side for some reason

#

and only after a night of prog was it

#

yeah can we swap sides

tribal blade
#

haha cool i posted that in our queen channel

short radish
#

glgl

tribal blade
#

now hopefully we actually kill court quickly on the next night

#

and it's not another 3 hours of wiping followed by a last pull magic kill

lilac stag
#

Just disc? Or is holy fine with hpal?

short radish
#

yeah just disc

#

as long as you dont have the two healers that require the ability to do damage

#

on the same side

#

Our priest is normally holy, but good to know

hello should i save flagellation for my second shadow blades or just use it on cd and should i have 2 shadow dance for shadow blade windows?

is there any amount of target count that u would ignore evis with darkest night for bp?

wind canopy
turbid saddle
# wind canopy No

is that cus of prio dmg or just generaly its more loss? to just bp without getting deathstalker up

wind canopy
#

Prio damage.

#

What's the point of playing DS if you're never gonna reapply the mark?

turbid saddle
#

nah im talking abt sitautions

#

where shit lives very little

hazy breach
#

Overall damage too

#

Even though it feels bad, the eviscerate actually does a lot of damage

quartz tartan
#

say that i have 30s left on my shadow blade and 1 charge of shadow dance can i use it and still have time to get 1 and a half back when shadow blade gets of cd, hope you understand what i am trying too say

hazy breach
#

And if you dont use the eviscerate your mark wont work properly (even if you strike to apply it its buggy when darkest night is up)

hazy breach
#

But generally no if your dance cd just came up its unlikely youll be able to fit it with 30s on ST

quartz tartan
#

when should i wait with pressing shadow dance when i have 30-40-50 s left on shadow blade

hazy breach
#

It kinda depends

#

But 40s should be fine

#

Sometimes you can fit it though, you'll just have to get a feel for it. It also depends on how many targets you have and if you have to do mechanics and stuff

#

Ontop of cp regen being rng to begin with

#

alright and 1 more with should i play trickster or deathstalker in m+, saw that top loggers in raid have switched to deathstalker

is it ok to not use rupture before cd window?

like theres ~7 seconds left on flag, and i have 0 cp, rupture is about to go off, but i have darkest night on

do i just rupture first and use darkest night stacks later

tepid trellis
#

if you arent in a hurry to get the cds off id consume the DN first

#

then rupture

#

then cds

sinful sluice

so is it okay to leave flag for like 5-6 secs then?

cuz ill have to backstab x3-4,evis,shriken storm,backstab,rupture and then flag

tepid trellis

it being "okay" is the wrong word id say

#

its the best you can do in the situation you have put yourself in

ideally it shouldnt happen

#

cuz then you werent thinking far enough ahead

in an ideal scenario the finisher that gave you that DN shouldve been a rupture if it was that close to falling off

i was focusing only on using rupture on 9 secs or less

Hey guys, I'm trying to implement this into a macro. But when testing, it doesn't really work the way I'd expect it to. It never really reactivates symbols after the specified amount of time. Is there something wrong I'm doing?

tribal blade
spiral marsh
#

I remember someone mentioning a macro for shiv and thistle tea for sin rogues so they wouldn't burn all of their tea uses, and wanted to try the same for symbols

tribal blade
#

ah ok, i'm not sure how you would implement it in combination with dance and strike macros

#

i know some people in here do though

spiral marsh
#

I think ever since they introduced 3 charges of symbols, it made it harder to spam said macro :/

tribal blade
#

yeah it's a bit frustrating

spiral marsh
#

if anyone does know a workaround for this, I'd appreciate the help 🙂

They (accidently?) added a small delay before you enter dance so it wont register you as being able to strike in tww

small juniper
#

surely ds is better

barren narwhal
#

I been playing DS in keys and I think it is better but I don’t enjoy it as much playstyle wise

#

The pop off potential is much higher, big CDs in big AOE you can hit insane numbers

#

But averages out around the same, 1.8-2m overall in 12s and 13s

#

I am yet to hit 3k though BUGS

small juniper
#

do u do more dps in a 10 or a 13

tulip token
# small juniper surely ds is better

Currently I just don't play better on DS. That is the only reason I havent made the swap. I might try it more soon but I am doing good with trickster

barren narwhal
#

Your dps is almost entirely dependant on how well your group plays

#

I usually play in a big stack and if your tank is playing around your CDs you’ll do insanely higher dps

#

If your tank pulls gigantic while you’re in downtime then your overall is cooked

small juniper
#

really

#

feel like u do decent dmg as long as u have a dance + symbols ready

barren narwhal
#

Yeah sub is a lot more CD dependant than most specs in the game

#

The downtime is really really low dps

small juniper
#

mhm

barren narwhal
#

But playing what you like is hella valuable 🔥

small juniper
#

idk my gear is fking awful, only recently started pveing again

#

but do decently in the 10s ive done

#

with ds

tulip token
#

I am seeing 7-8mil burst on trickster in some packs. Finished the first pull of dawn at like 4.5? I was at 1.99m overall going into final boss

small juniper
#

u can do that as ds as well

tulip token
#

I see why and how DS might be more though. I will say tracking the mark is annoying

#

But I did it on assa so it is what it is

small juniper
#

how is it annoying?

tulip token
#

If you swap targets to spread ruptures you just gotta remember to swap back to the OG target when sending

barren narwhal
#

DS plays much smoother on sub than it does on assass since you have much more reliable access to shadowstrike

#

With DS you just mash black powder though, so you don’t need to keep amazing track of your mark

small juniper
barren narwhal
#

On assass you need to keep much better track

tulip token
#

True. I need to send some keys on it then. I have only played it like 2 times? And that was like over a week ago

barren narwhal
#

I’d say top burst you can get with high ilvl and ds build is like 12m at highest

#

In gigantic pulls and stuff like NW and stonevault

#

But its just a high number lol the overall ends up looking quite similar

#

I’m 634 ilvl and those are the kinda numbers I see in good keys

tulip token
small juniper
#

surely the same rules apply as usual

barren narwhal
#

Just 2 casts tbh

small juniper
#

u apply ruptures while tank is gathering the pull

#

otherwise u just get into cds asap

#

and u can rupture outside dance assuming shit lives unless target count is too high

#

sub has played the same way for the last 8 years

tulip token
#

I only ask cause surely the “burst” would be higher if you slammed on pull. But if you don’t spread ruptures then your overall will be worse

vestal escarp
#

Raz why tf are you playing DS skull

what dps is good to do in a mists 10 overall

thats the only thing i have to compare to

vestal escarp

What kinda question is that

barren narwhal
#

DS bis surely

tulip token
#

I would have to go back and look but for a 10 Mists I’ve finished around 1.98m before or something stupid close. I remember being mad I didn’t hit 2m cause I want an overall of 2m without Aug

small juniper
#

@vestal escarp is trickster actually better

#

link the trickster raid spec so i can sim myself real quick

vestal escarp
#

It defo feels better, and imo it's a case of feeling better actually translates into performing better

#

That sheet has DS simming worse in dslice but archon has DS doing more in high keys. I wonder how close it really is

#

DS is only winning on archon in GB and MISTS

barren narwhal
#

Surely dslice is fake

#

Idk why but I was always taught not to trust d slice

#

A lot of top key performance will be down to individual players

tulip token
#

dslice is good for rogue

#

Bad for a lot of other classes

barren narwhal
#

Since there are like 10 sub rouges playing and 7 million assass rogues

#

Much easier to tell what’s good from a much bigger sample

tulip token
#

Yeah finding out what is actually good for sub is like finding a needle in the haystack. There isn't a lot of representation

small juniper
#

theres a grand total of like 5 good sub rogue players

#

so probably hard to measure

barren narwhal
#

Hard to turn down a much stronger spec like assass that uses the same weps and everything

#

And is generally just better in all cases

#

Fuck assass tho all my homies hate assass

#

Yucky spec

hazy breach
#

I would not recommend deathstalker

tulip token
small juniper
hazy breach

For keys that is

small juniper
#

why

tulip token
#

You are breaking his heart

#

haha

hazy breach
#

Because i dont think it does more damage

It hasnt when ive tried it.

small juniper
#

prob shouldnt do more unless its insanely big pulls

vestal escarp
#

You can pad with BP as trickster

#

And with form stacks up it hits hard

#

Like really hard

hazy breach
#

Deathstalker does more at sustained damage aoe, so theres for sure situations where it does more

plush roost
#

Its boss dam is also a bit better no?

hazy breach
#

But the ST is worse, unless you play the build ive linked, in which case the sustained aint that great either

only done weekly 10s so its irrelevant

was just curious

But its definitely fine
