ah ok people are right, storm gem is within 0.1% of thunderlords in ST sim

hybrid prism
#

Yeah, I still don’t know what is best. If it procs a lot, it’s better, if not, it’s not. I use it just because it sims higher, but I’m not totally convinced.

tribal blade
#

well thing is as soon as you introduce additional targets storm becomes better right

#

so on most fights this is the case

#

also you can make the argument about storm giving you more vers, therefore more DR

lethal summit
#

hey peeps, I feel like I'm losing my mind but what's up with shadow techniques sometimes being hella delayed when it gives the stored combo points? trying to learn sub and I can't find info about this.

short radish
#

With replicating shadows

#

Or w.e that talent is that duplicates rupture

#

Take improved sht

#

Slight dps loss but its a mental gain

lethal summit
#

saviour Prayge

vale pine
#

its true

keen dome
#

Someday they'll add playable Neurbian's and then we can be the buggy rogue on the buggy spec

tribal blade
#

i can't wait for the day they decide to fix RS

keen dome
#

Same

tribal blade
#

and then we get a whole new set of bugs to replace it 😉

keen dome
#

It's coming. 11.1. It's gonna do it. Posion toggle.

tribal blade
#

watch poison toggle break something

#

like it'll break poisons, which will break autos, which will break sht generation

keen dome
#

You'll change spec and still have all the posions and they'll stack.

tribal blade
#

i always thought DB changing nature damage to shadow was a missed opportunity to give sub an interesting twist with poison damage

#

not something crazy, but just a bit of flair

#

BUT i'd rather they address the bigger issues

vale pine
keen dome
#

Oh?

#

like their enchant system or something?

vale pine
#

yes, where poisons replace weapon enchants

keen dome
#

That'd be a really interesting direction for it. It'd be potentially a lot more interesting too

lilac stag
#

How is it more interesting?

#

Apply and forget?

clever delta
#

Where leggo dagger

lilac stag
#

Too busy making 2H strength weapons with procs

clever delta
#

And where 90s trinket at

lilac stag
#

Season 1

clever delta
#

Man it will be asaa tier again

lilac stag
#

rogue changes surely coming soonTM

clever delta
#

They make 90s classes than forget to add trinkets for them

lilac stag
#

we predicted this the moment it went to 90 seconds

#

SV hunter at 45 seconds probably not thrilled

#

warrior and dk still eating good

keen dome
lilac stag
#

as a dps only class, I’m hard pressed to see anyone getting excited over atrophic poison in different flavors.

#

shadow dmg flavor already a joke

#

Oh wait. We’re still waiting on crimson vial flair. kekdog

keen dome
#

It's got the potential to be made more interesting in that right now it's a button we press every 60 minutes (x2). I'd rather just have them be permenant toggles, but I'd be curious to see it do something else

#

Although who knows if that'd be good or useful.

keen dome
lilac stag
#

Make the gameplay interesting first. Not the window dressing.

#

which they continue to struggle with

#

as evident on how badly base spec plays without trickster

keen dome
#

ye

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

a toggle does nothing but minor qol improvment for how much dev investment? Idk

keen dome
#

Three of us!

#

It doesn't have to be an either / or though.

lilac stag
#

make em 2 hours. Easy fix

keen dome
#

Ideally we get the QoL and good changes.

#

We should hope for both.

lilac stag
#

Dude you know how little dev attention rogue gets. It’s an either or

keen dome
#

Hope!!!

tribal blade
#

heehee

keen dome
#

RS fix and finding where the SecTec clones have been fucking off too

tribal blade
#

it was an adventure using poisons back in the day

keen dome
#

oh god vanishing dust

tribal blade
#

you would legit run out midway through combat because you used up all the charges

lilac stag
#

can I interest you in thistle weed for your tea usage?

keen dome
#

Ye, I played some Classic and found out. Also you still had some of the jank back in Cata which I recall

tribal blade
#

haha vanishing dust jesus christ

keen dome
#

Cursed times

tribal blade
#

that killed a lot of people

lilac stag
#

rogue just a cursed class.

#

Davey jones infected combat and it went down hill from there.

tribal blade
#

i would be very open to them doing more with poisons like fuu said

#

and made it so they replaced our wep enchants

lilac stag
#

sure, but what? Just saying more is … useless

#

Extrapolate the development.

tribal blade
#

they would have to make them more interesting for sure

#

WAY more interesting

lilac stag
#

How?

tribal blade
#

but yeah i think it would be a misallocation of resources right now

lilac stag
#

Stop vague posting ideas

keen dome
#

Bring back the throwing weapon slot

tribal blade
#

given how little they want to work on rogue in general

#

better to see changes to the big things

lilac stag
#

no dk cares about their weapon runes,

#

None

#

just saves them money

tribal blade
#

i guess not

keen dome
#

Yeah I think the best possible thing they could do is turn them into a toggle, because it's one less weird Rogue friction thing to care about. Does it actually need to be done, nah. Would I personally like it, yea. So it must be done to save world of warcraft.

#

Of course there's a laundry list of other, far more important things to be done first

#

But: posion toggle.

lilac stag
#

You get a dot or an instant poison. What else thematically to poison are we dipping into for dps

keen dome
#

Get rid of posions for Sub / Outlaw like in BfA and do somethign else there.

lilac stag
#

Bird flu poison so target barfs?

keen dome
#

lmao, a CC that makes the target throw up

vale pine
#

poisons have a lot of potential

keen dome
#

Actually give Rogue the backstab Scoundrels have in SWTOR. Which is kicking someone between the legs.

lilac stag
#

today in RH we present vaguebooking spec development.

keen dome
#

I'm very good at vaguebooking

lilac stag
#

They could do so much more with finisher dmg

#

#

vale pine
lilac stag
keen dome
#

You could achieve the same result by just moving DB up the tree, no?

lilac stag
#

if that’s the so much more we have some very different definition s of “so much more”

#

Making instant poison purple and show up as shadow dmg ain’t it

#

not when the spec is broken

#

That literally window dressing

vale pine
#

i mean you are dissapointed because you expected a creative example

lilac stag
#

an actual idea.

vale pine
#

but i clearly stated "thematical"

lilac stag
#

not turn shit purple like DB

vale pine
#

a example of a more interactive poison would be the eon effect

keen dome
#

An AoE / ST poison is something I keep thinking about, but every time I do I realize it'd be terrible. And just awkward to do anything with. Oh hey time for a boss let me reapply poisons. Ah, trash, swapping to other poison.

lilac stag
#

You’d be swapping mid fight

keen dome
#

god, you would

lilac stag
#

Which would be interactive at least

keen dome
#

Swapping between Ovinax eggs

lilac stag
#

something to do outside CDs

keen dome
#

Delete poisons, make Shadowblades a poison, roll the combie gen into flagellation

lilac stag
#

eon poison, back to assa rogue in what NH? “I can’t swap off the boss, sorry”

#

“We hear sub rogues don’t like poisons. We have made them all purple, but still are nature damage.” Nothing else gets touched, spec saved in 11.1”

keen dome
#

Hell yeah, best patch ever

lilac stag
#

mmhm

vale pine
#

you underestimate how much a good theme and visuals matter

lilac stag
#

hahah

keen dome
#

We can have both, though

lilac stag
#

I’ve been beating the visual drum since dfa went proof.

#

Piss off with that

#

Poison theme and visuals are not the same

vale pine
keen dome
#

give SecTec Kyve'za trinket visuals

#

make Sub the ethereal spec

#

all in on the bandage mummies

lilac stag
#

expecting any real dev time on the least played spec of basically the least played class is something I’ve come to terms with ain’t happening.

#

ride it out til it dies

keen dome
#

Hell yeah, sub 4 life

#

And occasionally terrible patches like 11.0 -> 11.0.5

lilac stag
#

then get buffs you didn’t want HOLY

#

Die DS die

keen dome
#

I really like the changes and how Sub plays right now, tbh. Just not DS.

lilac stag
#

Trickster bandaids sub

#

Bliz buffs DS

#

The cycle continues

keen dome
#

Sub only launched with one hero tree

#

They'll add the other any day now

vale pine
#

i think they should have made them spec specific

tribal blade
#

yeah the crossover between specs is a problem

#

creates massive issues

keen dome
#

Yep

short radish
#

b-b-b-but choice

#

you can create cool builds

keen dome
#

Would've been neat to have a very tailored 'tree' that could be added too

#

Also I'm gonna bet 5 gold that in Midnight, the hero talent trees get 'void-touched' or 'light-blessed' nodes that change how they behave and that's the addition, something like that. And it makes it even more annoying

vale pine
#

we probably get a new class in the next xpac

keen dome
#

Maybe, but I'm pretty skeptical of them adding any more classes.

jaunty umbra
#

another class before 3rd dh spec would be so funny kekdog

short radish
#

we got a 3rd evoker spec before a 3rd dh spec

round latch
dry plank
#

When pirate press dance it should literally start dance animation and shoot like pirates the Caribbean

#

1-2-3-bam-1-2-3-bam-turn around and repeat

round latch
#

it was an insult to rogue's legacy but whatever

tribal blade
#

i still can't think of outlaw without the pirates of the caribbean theme running in my head

round latch
#

its scarred into my brain

tribal blade
keen dome
#

outlaw needs a rack of pistol move.

fallow nimbus
#

It's tinker

keen dome
#

Make killing spree pull out a dozen flintlocks and firing them in sequence

#

With the cyberpunk theme playing, but old timey.

#

Also bring cannon barrage back

#

but it's a proc

steel zinc
keen dome
#

Each time you use Dispatch it has a chance to load a cannon ball, when it loads 16, it fires a broadside canno barrage. there is zero control over any of this.

keen dome
lilac stag
#

I’m assuming they’d add spec to some classes and bring in one fully fleshed out class (bard)

keen dome
#

Yeah. the legendary shaman tank spec

lilac stag
#

at least off the DE survey, it seems more like what’s fit fantasy wise and what would actually be interesting.

keen dome
#

Yeah, I'd adore to see them add some more specs to classes that are mono-DPS too

#

Like, just do it: Warlock tank spec

#

How do you make it different from Demon Hunter?

#

Ah, simple!

#

Demon Mech

fallow nimbus
#

No way around the tinker

#

It will have a tank, heal and dps spec

lilac stag
#

Tinker just going to be mech suits, but could be a lot to try to actually add in vs something more straight forward as bard.

I doubt we see anything with the housing expansion. Probably the last one / titan one? Idk

#

You’re going to need a selling point after housing

keen dome
#

More housing

#

Muticlass

lilac stag
#

Housing with purple shadows!

vale pine
#

i think playing alts got a lot less fun this xpac

#

even tho i rarely do, it seems a lot more effort

lilac stag
#

at some point I hope someone knocks the stupid out of blizzard and allows stone and crests to be xfered

#

it’s still the biggest fuck you to playing alts

spark tusk
#

I mean there's still a lot of beneficial changes so far

vestal escarp
#

Gm

spark tusk
#

like warbands in general, currency xfer, warband bank

lilac stag
#

not when everything is gated behind shit m+

vestal escarp
#

Sin channel still having a meltdown over m+?

void hound
keen dome
#

They really add nothing of value to the game in any shape or form.

lilac stag
#

Crests not transferring is way worse imo

keen dome
#

Agreed

lilac stag
#

you’re forced into m+ basically. No one wants to farm low (8-10) keys

keen dome
#

INstead of transferring crests, just make the highest iLevel be 1:1 unlock for account. I.e., if I get a 639 helm on my rogue, everybody can upgrade to 639. Same end result, just less grind involved.

#

Play the content to play the content instead of grinding the content to play the content.

#

And also delete valorstones. you do the grind once and are done for the season (Although you still need the items on your alts)

lilac stag
#

their retention would go way up imo if they just let you play alts at the content you’re running your main at

vale pine
lilac stag
#

most of the specs are so dumbed down, learning isn’t exactly a good time gating excuse.

lilac stag
vestal escarp
#

Even if crests cost was warband, wouldn't you still spam 7s or 10s to drop your stuff on alts?

spark tusk
#

I got an alt spun up and it's like 603

vestal escarp
#

You farm crests that way

spark tusk
#

I still have a 554 helmet that can't be upgraded

#

and i'm pushing valorstone cap

#

and struggling to find anything to do with them

spark tusk
#

I just wish it wasn't capped

#

or that they didn't exist

lilac stag
#

I can get 619 for tier in open world.

vestal escarp
#

But if you need those trinkets or one specific ring

lilac stag
#

sure you’re farming an item.

#

Not 60+ runs

#

To get crests to upgrade

#

on an alt

jaunty heath
#

They missed the point in their heroic/mythic upgrade paths

#

They wanted to make mythic more valuable

#

But heroic now is too bad

#

Like s3 df if you had fully upgraded heroic you would do decent at least

lilac stag
#

626 should have been heroic crests

jaunty heath
#

Now fully upgraded heroic is nothing

keen dome
#

If it was a one-and-done grind you could have an Alt at 626 suepr quick. It'd be great.

lilac stag
#

636 should have been max. Court and Queen 639

keen dome
#

You'd still hit the RNg Myth wall, but at least that'd be done. Also +1 to that.

#

I really hope for S2 we return to 4/4Myth but I bet they don't address it at all. it's such a stupid friction point having 19 iLevels o fpower locked behind gilded.

#

Which is compounded by N/H stuff being functionally identical

vale pine
vestal escarp
keen dome
#

Remove the brackets. Chaos reigns. A drop is a drop, you just need currency to cap it.

#

LFR drop of Transmitter can got 639 with enough currency.

pearl stratus
#

Then you get LFR prison every week nice

keen dome
#

At least you'd only need it to drop once.

#

Which would be an improvement to how it is now!

spark tusk
#

and it's only once a week

#

and will go so fast

pearl stratus
#

No thanks

spark tusk
#

because there will be other capped people doing it too

jaunty heath
#

Idk farming 2‘s was also very degen

keen dome
#

Ye

jaunty heath
#

But i would take it big time

#

Over what we have currently

keen dome
#

I'd rather do that, and have a drop be a drop, than anything we have now.

warm marlin
keen dome
#

It would mean loot becomes a bit weird but like.

keen dome
#

Unless we do and I missed it

warm marlin
#

didn't they say it would work like s4 df

spark tusk
#

I don't think they said anything about it?

#

It was just datamined

vale pine
spark tusk
#

or did I miss a post?

warm marlin
#

ah maybe just datamine

jaunty heath
#

Im also unsure about dinars, I think if it’s capped at 2 sure thing nice qol

warm marlin
#

i know there was something about a 14/14 track like df

jaunty heath
#

The moment you get too many it’s not very fun either

spark tusk
keen dome
#

And you'd be 100% right. So I am going to hope you are.

#

Bracketless deterministic loot, even just a few choices, would be a huge improvement.

jaunty heath
#

14/14 like 3k valorstones kekdog

keen dome
#

I'm ready.

warm marlin
#

can't wait for dinars

keen dome
#

Ye

warm marlin
#

the df s4 thing where you just full bought entire gearset was definitely a bit dumb but 2 that come later in season is a good compromise I think

keen dome
#

I've seen heroic Transmitter drop once. Normal.. actually not once a tall. And I've killed her every week on heroic (and occasionally normal) since the raid launched.

keen dome
#

Because it keeps people hopeful. You will get it eventually. Or you get it sooner, and can spend it on something else. It's basically a pure, positive change to how gearing feels.

lilac stag
keen dome
#

I liked getting Myth track items as a Heroic boi in Abberus.

#

It was small, but felt nice.

#

But I'm a very strong believer in loot mobility being very healthy for WoW, and more mobility and accessibility to higher iLevel stuff is just.. better.

swift tinsel
#

In a valorstone-less system

keen dome
#

Yeah. And it'd mean getting a higher ilevel drop is just a pure fucking win.

#

Bracketless system. Get rid of valorstones entirely. Keep crests and crest brackets (Normal / heroic / myth). Keep the ilevel free upgrade system (I.e., your item is 5/14 and a 8/14 drops for that slot. You can take the prior item up to the latters level for free)

swift tinsel
#

Chef in the kitchen

#

Michelin star

keen dome
#

You could probably make it a step cleaner where it's just seaosnal items that are like that. So you don't run into, say, a weird world drop situation or farming older content, etc.

#

So the active raid, the eight M+ dungeons, etc.

swift tinsel
#

Like Divine Bell

#

Agreed

keen dome
#

I suppose you'd fall into the issue of someone just farming a dungeon on normal for a drop, instead of M+ or vault but. Is that a bad thing to give people the choice to target farm items in a way they want to do so? You'd still need currency, etc.

vestal escarp
swift tinsel
keen dome
#

Yeah.

swift tinsel
#

If you want the best currency, you have to do the harder or hardest content

hybrid heath
#

Is there a way to stop Symbols of Death from wasting charges when pressing the hotkey multiple times?

keen dome
#

!sod

wicked joltBOT
#

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

keen dome
#

That should do it, I think?

hybrid heath
#

Thanks

keen dome
#

I can see a few edge case issues with my loot idea. And the major "Well people will grind themselves silly" but, eh. I think people will do silly things regardless.

swift tinsel
#

Let them imo

#

It’s game and that’s how they want to play it

#

You should be rewarded for your time investment

keen dome
#

I think the positives would massively outweigh the negatives.

swift tinsel
#

I just wanna see valorstones and crest caps gone

#

Don’t gate my progress if I’m putting in the time

vale pine
#

there is no reason for multiple systems to exist instead of one for everything

#

well there is a reason, and it is to improve the player engagement metric

hazy breach
#

The crest cap is very reasonable

#

Valorstones i dont see much point in

#

Without the crest cap it would feel awful to do anything else in life besides farming m+ the first week of a new release

#

Because every second youre not farming somebody else is

warm marlin
#

valorstones are either irrelevant or suffering

hazy breach
#

Now they could have a higher cap or remove the cap of crests earlier on in the season for sure, but the idea of the cap is very reasonable

keen dome
#

Yeah, I wouldn't change the actual crest cap. I think that's fine (esp with the change back to 60 for max crafted)

#

Just the other bits.

hazy breach
#

The complaint of "i need to do 80 keys to get all my crests" that people have for alts this point in the season

#

Would apply to your main too and the beginning of the season

old venture
#

esp for alts

plush roost
#

I think the gilded/runed/weathered etc achieves should outright remove valorstone requirements

#

Or make them 80/90% off

charred kestrel
#

why have a 2 currency upgrade system in the first place?

plush roost
#

So people who get 7 rings and wanna keep them have to spend a resource ig

#

Valorstones feel like a multispec currency haha

vale pine
vale pine
#

you see it in most mobile games, and it is designed to keep you playing longer

rocky ocean
#

current gearing is still light years ahead of what we had to do in s1 of df

plush roost
#

Max ilvl weapons in s1 df (just get lucky in your vault)

#

Or kill broodkeeper xddd

twilit phoenix
#

The gap between mythic and heroic track gear is unnecessary imo

#

6 ilvls was fine

#

13 is kinda crazy

rocky ocean
#

blizz clearly actively put raiding above everything else, which is fair

plush roost
#

I mean having that gap made me stay playing way longer

plush roost
#

Yeye

#

Idk maxing out my character 6 weeks into the season is justi

#

Meh

#

Like season 2 df was so boring cause i had nothing to chase and I wasn't playing godcomp

rocky ocean
#

will the loss of current tier change our ability prio is S2?

plush roost
#

Prio? No, will we afk 10 seconds before dance? Maybe

#

Let the tcs figure it out once ptr is up

rocky ocean
#

true, I still think it's a 50/50 that they step back from gamba in melee tier or in general

plush roost
#

Tbh it doesn't seem that bad. I can guarantee parse warriors will be infuriated tho

twilit phoenix
#

Sub tier has potential to be super cool

#

Bummed there isn’t a good 1.5 trinket

plush roost
#

Theres a couple that are lackluster but like sub, ret pal look fun

twilit phoenix
#

Maybe they’ll just let us keep using transmitter

#

Without nerfs

plush roost
#

Good cope

#

Transmitter is losing 80% of that agi haha

rocky ocean
twilit phoenix
#

Eleem said something along the lines of a 670ish skardyn’s simming lower than a myth track transmitter

rocky ocean
#

or ptr already has everything

plush roost
#

Its just datamining

twilit phoenix
#

Don’t think I’ve seen a full trinket list yet

rocky ocean
#

Dont worry surely we will get a legendary dagger this expansion!!

twilit phoenix

#

A new dungeon trinket might be it

twilit phoenix
digital aspen
#

Even a 3 min trinket, but do they even make those anymore?

twilit phoenix
#

We want 3 min, 1.5, or 45 second

#

Or 15 second

#

5 works too

digital aspen
#

Maybe there's one that has cdr or something

#

Don't the returning dungeons have any?

twilit phoenix
#

Pretty sure they’re all 2 mins

digital aspen
#

Well, we'll have more info in a week or two

twilit phoenix
#

Priory has that 2 min on use

#

And there’s one from raid as well

digital aspen
#

We'll have to see tuning in general

#

You never know what they cook

#

Maybe we ll be able to use 2x passives

twilit phoenix
#

Yeah I’m sure rogue is top of mind at blizz rn

digital aspen
#

If they take some power out of CDs and into maintenance

#

We're all here playing it regardless

kind bluff
#

So do we use only 2 shadow dance and symbols during opener? Or all 3 symbols?

alpine wraith
#

2

rocky ocean
#

is using shadow blades before sec tech suboptimal? Or it doesn't matter?

alpine wraith
#

you will do less dmg yes

rocky ocean
#

#1 kyveza parse btw

alpine wraith
#

just proc better

#

you also should evis first instead of rupture

steel zinc
#

Such a minimal detail you will los 1 sec of blades

vale pine
#

but i am not sure thats a good comparison

#

it is healthy to look at the same product and be excited for improvements

#

but it is also easy to not see if what it does is not the standard elsewhere

#

e.g. apple fans cheering for apple introducing the world first feature nobody else has

#

outside of android which had it for 11 years already

alpine wraith
#

i will always laugh at the apple mouse having charging on the lower part

lilac stag
glacial tartan
#

Hey so curious, should I just macro CB with Secret Technique?

#

Or is it better to do it without?

hazy breach
#

It is better to use it manually with your second sectech

#

But a lot of people dont bother

glacial tartan
#

Ahh okay, I don't use a macro for it now and honeslty it doesn't really bother me.

#

Other question I had is about SB. I see some rotations pop SB on the first use of Shadow Dance and Symbols and some on the second use. Is it jsut preference?

hazy breach
#

What

#

Shadowblades?

#

You want it up for during your burst, typically its used right after sectech

hollow spear
#

not sure if it was posted already, but this trinket activates on Shadowblade casts

#

first application 40s, subsequent application 20s

steel zinc
#

And is that in sims?

drowsy moon
#

hey

#

this saving symbols for the next blades is confusing

vale pine
drowsy moon
#

I couldnt find the mark where u guys pined the when to not use symbols

alpine wraith
#

for sub it is not super good vs MYTHIC items

#

but it is very solid even at 606 vs hc and normal ilvl items

#

and if you get at champion it goes neck in neck vs mythic things and a bit better in AoE

#

one thing i didnt check in the sim is that if it pops as 40 secs on pull

hazy breach
twilit phoenix
#

have they released a loot table for the new dungeon yet?

# vale pine sounds quite good

yea it is quite good if you can get it at champion ilvl might be a thing to farm for a bit while s2 comes and even then

vale pine
#

possible ye

#

not sure it is worth farming

steel zinc
#

It might be worth

#

let me sim at 619

alpine wraith
#

it drops only on the weekly

#

so basically unluck

steel zinc
#

my current gear is contact 639 and transmitter 626. It would be an upgrade for me

alpine wraith
#

i mean like 95% of the people dont have mythic ilvl trinkets and transmitter

steel zinc
alpine wraith
#

yea

steel zinc
#

yo @vale pine idk might be worth a pin so people have actually something to farm. Kyveza is not something everyone can pug/kill.

lilac stag
#

Not exactly pin worthy. If you’re a rogue doing content still you’re are going to do weekly for ring upgrade. Just get lucky. kekdog

vale pine
#

probably ye, its just something extra you can do

alpine wraith
#

yea not worth pinning for sure

lilac stag
#

People could still be running delves for knife vault

alpine wraith
#

yea tbh it is sweet release from knife from vault

#

at least for sub idk about outlaw or assa

#

I saw on WoWhead that queen ring is now bis with the new island ring. But no other crafted piece, are embellishments not that strong that we don't want 2 of them?

lilac stag
#

embellishments haven’t been strong all season

worn cape
#

Oh, not sure where I read that they were good but must have been wrong info then. 🤷‍♀️

lilac stag
#

It’s still using them on wowhead

#

@worn cape no ideas what you’re looking at

#

@vale pine Everforged dagger source is wrong in guide

worn cape
#

Just wondering why we used 1 instead of 2 embellishments, that's all.

lilac stag
#

There are 2

#

Dagger and bracers

vale pine
worn cape
#

Oh, I just looked at the right column and saw only 1 profession mentioned 😛

lilac stag
#

just a typo

#

The dagger is crafted

worn cape
#

So I want to swap my crafted ring for a dagger basically.

lilac stag
#

are you getting a mythic queen ring?

worn cape
#

Hell no

lilac stag
#

then no

#

Just sim your gear

#

bis lists are stuff to aim for in you’re clearing max lvl content

#

What you actually have is way more important

lilac stag
#

Is there a legible version?

worn cape
#

I see. I am full hero gear now so I thought maybe it would be useful to try to get full bis in hero track. But that's not that important then?
I don't mythic raid at all so hero is probs highest I am going to get, except from the odd mythic vault from M+

lilac stag
#

Just sim what comes in. Crafted ring and neck are more than fine.

worn cape
#

Cool cool cool, got crafted ring and wrists but I doubt that matters 😂

vale pine
#

crafting weapons is probably a easy option you can always do

#

else ring, bracers, boots, belt are good choices

lilac stag
#

lol @ no cantrip dagger in 11.1. I think every other melee has one available.

swift tinsel

soon we realize rogue tier set was a typo and we don't actually get one

Is there a delay between Coup de Grace being cast and it actually hitting the target when you're in melee? I noticed the WA I'm tracking it with takes a second or two to go away after I cast it.

hazy breach
#

It does damage over 1 second

astral axle
#

Got it, so you don't wanna cut it too close if you're trying to fit one in to damage windows

hazy breach
#

Well you cant really control it

#

Better to get half of it in dance

astral axle
#

Makes sense. Thanks! Despite the awkward bits really enjoying Tricks Sub

pliant topaz
#

its the most fun version of sub ive played (since season 1 df)

#

glad youre enjoying it

#

surely the shadow damage on tier doesnt make sub a deathstalker only spec surely.

lilac stag
#

And a 90 second trinket will show up any day now.

short radish
#

if we dont get a 90sec trinket

#

we're kinda screwed arent we

pliant topaz
#

not really

#

we probably just use either double on use damage or 1 on use damage 1 stat stick

hazy breach
#

Very possible we play transmitter too

#

Maybe not at max ilvl, but fairly far into the season

tribal blade
#

what ilvl is 639 equivalent to

#

for next tier

#

i'm guessing somewhere between normal and heroic

pliant topaz
#

lfr

tribal blade
#

damn

#

so i was a smidge off

pliant topaz
#

depends on the jump they do i guess? like in df from season 1 to season to we went from 421/424 to 452 i think?

#

and each tier was like 13 ilvls ish

tribal blade
#

yeah the jump changes from tier to tier

pliant topaz
#

so lfr was basically 424 in s2

#

maybe normal

tribal blade
#

there's for sure gonna be a lot of people losing their minds over not having a 639 transmitter in here

pliant topaz
#

idk maybe they do a puzzle box

#

and just gut the trinket

tribal blade
#

we've done x2 on use before

#

we can do it again

lilac stag
#

They’ll gut transmitter and spyglass

tribal blade
#

hopefully not too soon in to the tier

lilac stag
#

1 week into mythic is my guess

steel zinc
#

that thing is omega broken

lilac stag
#

so is transmitter on any 90 sec spec. PlatypusCosplayingAsBeaver

steel zinc
#

For sub yes

#

But doubt it they nerf a trinket and then not buff the spec that needs the trinket

lilac stag
#

kekw

#

and they have to fight with jump 3 times

jaunty heath
#

god sub is fun in keys the fuck

#

this rework really did it nice huh

hazy breach
#

Yep it feels good

#

Just wished the numbers were a bit higher during the aoe burst

#

Might be a bit unfair to compare to shamans, but still

jaunty heath
#

ye burst could definitely be a bit higher for the fact thats what our identity should be

#

we could take some more damage away from outside of cds i wouldnt mind at all

hazy breach
#

Shaman burst just too high, its getting toned down massively next season

jaunty heath
#

lemme get big number in burst

#

and do none outside of cds

hazy breach
#

Sub burst is good

jaunty heath
#

its good but

#

theres more specs than shaman that do better on aoe burst

#

or am i delulu rn

hazy breach
#

Not really, or atleast theyre comparable to sub

jaunty heath
#

I see, i feel like most specs do more damage outside of cds tho

#

which i would be fine with

#

if our burst was higher than theirs

#

typa thing

hazy breach
#

Ye

jaunty heath
#

if we had shamans burst, and only that nothing else i think we'd still be okay tuning wise

#

their dmg just kinda rolls for a long time

#

and our spec does make up for it outside of cds while shaman still does decent outside of cds

strange chasm

that sin overall though

#

is too good

@hazy breach first 20 timed is NW

spark tusk
#

I was just watching it

#

I'm new to the party so this is probably super basic knowledge about nw at this point

#

but I didn't realize the throw axes could damage the mobs too

#

and it does a fuck ton of damage

#

Like the amount of micromanagement they had to do so the axe hit the big caster and not the little shitters

#

is wild, and MCing it and carrying it the whole way through

vestal escarp

The mc is

#

Well

#

Questionable

It's what carries wake from 17 onwards anyway

spark tusk

Well I'm impressed

vestal escarp

Same for mists you drag a tankbuster trash

That almost does 4th dps slot dmg

tribal blade
#

but eleem HATES it haha

#

(and rightfully so)

#

it makes NW impossible to do w/o a priest pretty much

#

healer priests actually have a really hard job to do micro managing their MCd target, because if they fuck it up the timings are off, or they get melee'd and 1 shot

Hey all, is there a big change in rotation when using DS over Trickster? I've been using a DS build for raid since i see its more popular on WL. But ever since, I've been consistently parsing below 10-15% of my usual. This even happens when I try to run heroic pugs as well. Would love some assistance

#

My opener is still flag blades with two uses of SD/SoD. Then SD/SoD'ing in between and lining up so I have 2 charges of each before my next flag

vale pine
#

the rotation is similar to before tww/11.0.5

#

you have your big cooldown windows with flag/blades

#

and then between it use symbols around secret cooldown

#

so symbols + dance + secret most of the time

thick temple
#

i see here and there mention of using Sectec as the second finisher after popping SoD or dance/SoD. is this true?

#

typically i see my sectec available, pop SoD(/dance), backstab, then sectec

#

or goomblade in this instance for this build

tribal blade
#

strike does way more

thick temple
#

oh sorry

#

i meant strike

#

it replaces my button for bs/gloom when i dance (or stealth)

#

I will post in my log thread shortly, maybe someone can help me out again. let me know if a new thread is supposed to be made for new/updated topic

@vale pine

fair enough

DS needs more autos and uptime to might be a bit more annoying to play in last boss

yea ik ik, with trickster it was easy evis spam, I spammed BP now, but I was wondering why gloomblade instead of the rupture talent, if it deals more on the boss rather than going gloom (not the adds ofc)

I had like a 2 week break and all out of the sudden I see so many deathstalker subs topping the tricksters

i guess. but shes fine most games imo idk, she cant play the game once u have mercs and u can just roam with your jungler and if shes matching you, shes either losing full waves or she cant match you

shes super short range so with t2 u can easily range all her abilities and if she trades in agro with E u can easily punish cuz mercs stonks

#

atleast for zed, idk about other champs.

dawn summit
#

zed has it pretty easy bc ur base damage is relatively high and ur early spikes are just really really strong

#

other ad midlaners have it way worse bc if they buy mercs they are losing a massive chunk of their threat in early skirmishes for grubs/first 2 drags
