It's still wild to me that it can drop from bleed ticks
Their set is so conceptually cooked
Oh definitely, there's way too many damage instances lol
there's no shot, that's crazy
although doesn't that mean more chances to proc the 4pc
or is that not enough to balance it out
Yeah, apparently it procs like crazy in aoe
it's really weird
yeah that's pretty bad
bc it stacks, but also gets consumed but also not
it's absolutely all over the place atm
no melee is happy with it
It's just a ham-fisted approach
mega rng is never fun
nah not at all
even if it works as intended
its just hard to plan around or it encourages really degenerate gameplay
neither of which are fun imo
esp since you can generate winning streak max stack in either 9 seconds or almost a full minute
for sub*
I have a feeling it'll only be worth it to do that ~20 seconds before flag or in the middle of cooldowns when you have that 2-finisher spot before sectech is ready again
which, still not ideal
Average 0.16ish stacks per second outside Dance so you'll hit 3 stacks most of the time in that window
Super interested to dig into the reset behavior once itās working
Bc the stacking atm is actually pretty good, Iād be pretty fine with that portion going live as-is
Stacking is fine when it doesn't reset at 4 every time or reset the global before cd window
Which is why youād likely not evisc in the last 15-20 seconds of flagās cooldown
And in that time youād get stacks from auto attacks, backstab, rupture ticks, etc so itās not so bad
But again, will come down to reset behavior and some tc work
While that is "interesting"
I don't really like suppressing our main ST finisher in favor of...what rupture spam? BP spam again?
in st?
oh wait does bp proc it too?

quantum quantum quantum
Imma take the eigenvalue of dance's CDR
I don't know quantum was over a decade ago

Yeah itāll be rupture/SnD which is degen either way lol
I suppose we have kidney shot!
Just send autos, take a bio break then rupture or slice depending on pandemic as your flag finisher
Omg new kidney meta
In a surprise twist we get Recuperate back as a finisher
I canāt wait to see if BP/nimble evisc insta-drop it bc itās 15% per hit between phys and shadowed finisher and not per cast
Cinema
Just like bleeds for assa
lmao
15% chance per damage instance
Except watch it only proc from shadowed finishers
Omg
because shadowed finishers can never be bug free
all the more reason to not evis
So itās got like 90% reset chance
Didnāt SF make bp do weird shit with our DF s3 set
Iām also not so secretly hoping that tricksterās increased dance uptime nudges ds out of the picture bc it definitely has a notable impact on stack generation
Maybe my brain is just cooked from five hours of trickster openers and them feeling great compared to ds lol
See I dont like the effects of the tier sets in season 2
BUt at the same time.
I never pay attention to tier sets and just.. get them to get them

They arent like Elder Scrolls Online where set bonuses drastically change how you play
Its always just "keep playing the same way you normally do but have this boost every now and then"
They sometimes do alter gameplay though
This next set might also
Too early to say until things are more functional
Could be mostly passive, could change how we approach finishers entirely outside of shadow dance
A question for the robot
pray they rework winning streak

aint happening
(well not when we want it)
š
my daily yappin' about to end with how much i hate coup
and its so much

i just wish rupture would be themed as shadow and not a bleed
sub is still a physical spec, which I was surprised about when specced into it
: 2pc: Rupturing a target with rupture on it outside of dance applies a stack of Shadowed Blood per combo point spent. Casting Eviscerate or SecTec inside of Dance Ignites the target's blood causing X damage per stack. Shadowed Blood stacks removed when leaving shadow dance.
: 4pc: Casting Symbols of Death causes your Shadowed Blood stacks to explode for their normal damage per stack to all enemies around the target. While Shadow Blades is active, Shadowed Blood stacks do not reset when leaving shadow dance.
Idn just something that came to mind
Which would alter gameplay
this is some cooking
the shadowed blood thing
me like

Im obsessing with the avatar of shadow idea
months now
coz sub needs an avatar button,or passive
as soon as you name it āshadowā¦ā it stops doing dmg

i didn't forget about your warr btw, i'll hit you up later for key š
I should be back home around 13:30. itās 5:30 currently.
I maybe can get on before leaving for teaching in 3 hours
That should work
Just trying to figure out the time zones hahah
Woyer up to 624. Got the rare neck on Sat. Now itās crest farming and vault prayers.
I somehow have the bis trinkets as well. lol
nice! big
lol tell me about it, i'm constantly having to do it since i don't live in the US
Most people in the US canāt figure out the 4 time zones we have within the country. 
i'm also having to deal with daylight savings while not having it where i live
(kill me)

Hello!
I'm doing this opener on a dummy
Why is it sometimes after using Eviscerate I suddenly get a full bar of combo points that I need to react to and avoid pressing Gloomblade / Shadowstrike?
shadowcraft
my raid time's gonna change in a bit over a month back to being an hour earlier š¦
you essentially get combo points refunds if you have high enough shadow techniques stacks during symbols
Ah yea I see now
it is why the sequence can be slightly diffrent depending on how much you proc
but should on average look like the above
i look forward to you coming in here later on asking why you aren't getting refunds when you should be

And obviously we want to extend Symbols of Death (and Shadow Dance too?) buff during Shadow Blades? using pandemic
I just couldn't find what spell/talent gives that interaction
it's a silly joke, sub has a lot of bugs with the combo point refunds
you mainly want to use your symbols around when you're using secret technique
because you want to always buff sectec with supercharger
so the main timer that dictates when you press stuff is the cd of sectec
I see, and generally we always want to press SD+SoD together?
In other words does it ever happen that we press one without another?
in the opener you can chain dances back to back with flag and blades up
but then sectec won't be off cd quick enough
so you symbols midway through the 2nd dance when you can supercharge sectec
Thank you!
i actually noticed it immediately after the rework when i got a WA to track sht
but i assumed my brain was playing tricks or the WA was buggy or laggy or something
NOPE
the bug is over a year old by now ^^
horrendous
Ah you mean when I press Evis and it takes some time for the bar to fill with Shadow Technques?
yes, and you can't really play around it
because the delay varies
Yeah I noticed that too
so if you try to play around it you can end up losing several gcds trying
but usually you can delay your stuff very slightly and sometimes catch those stray delayed procs
And is it intended that the following macro doesn't work?
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Symbols of Death
/cast Shadowstrike
It doesn't cast Shadowstrike , as if the spell bar isn't updated and switched instantly to "spell bar while stealthed"?
need to double press it
it's not really worth using anymore, it's very cumbersome
correct
i used to use it, and now i just manually dance then strike
i stopped using it at the start of DF
I'll take it as a feature to promote playing this spec as a pianist
But does this spec have many more bugs or not?

Cuz it feels really depressing to learn a buggy and forgotten by blizzard spec
welcome to the red headed step child of blizzard
Even though I was really excited to learn rogue
sub has it pretty bad bug wise
sorry to be the bearer of bad news
Itāll still be here in 12.0 if cp refunds arenāt changed by then.
gonna be completely real, the track record of devs working on sub in particular has been getting worse and worse over the years
Itās easier to ask what isnāt bugged.
so unless you absolutely love this spec it's a bit of a headache
Iād say after a month on it most give up
plus you're trying to parse against the sweatiest of sweatlords in raid considering the only people who play sub are the ones who love the shit out of it
Those are the smart ones
i think the upside honestly is that there's so few of us we get to have very fun convos in here between the few of us haha
damn thats why my logs are shit
time to reroll
fcking sweats
hey racoon, you're one of them
how's lost ark btw
3 purples, he's washed up
yeah parsing as sub right now is hell on earth
i play out of my mind on bosses and don't parse very well
sikran we kill to fast to play sub on it
feels bad
dude the last 3-4 times i've recleared sikran i get the first charge
and then i just give up from there
no recovery from that
Is sub the only spec that has a bonus damage if you're attacking from behind? And how does it work on bosses like Rasha'nan?
backstab does so little damage it doesn't matter much
like backstab is a fucking horrendous button
- on those type of bosses they delete the parry system
But shadowstrike has it too
no
i think you're confusing the bonus dmg from striking from stealth
Yes I am actually
and before you get the chance to ask
that's just bonus dmg from real stealth btw, so dance doesn't work
same brain
In my case I immediately had a thought "hmm that's weird since SS is always pressed from Stealth"
that's part of what makes sub such a clusterfuck for devs to work on
i honestly think the best bug we have is you take virtually no aggro in dance
it's kinda crazy
not sure if you would call that a bug or unintended side effect
its intended
no clue why its there
but it is
just -1mil threat
in dance
like fade for priests
it seems unintended because there's nothing in the tooltip about it
The "Oh my god Brann I hate you" button in delves.
bro it's awful in delves
Watching Brann run out the door of a boss room
i hope they keep it in, i like it
ive killed people on purpose with it
the best part is you know when you tank dies on a pull in keys you won't be the first person to take a melee swing if you're in dance
i tank the mobs with evasion
so you can keep attacking and then dip out right before dance ends
just say "wanna see something funny"
haha
and my DH friendly instantly knows whats about to happen to him
i press dance
he gets clapped
btw is there any play around your tank dying, he resses instantly and gets aggro back from tricks
tricks wont do shit for that
i try to click off tricks quick but never works
it's just a weird issue with perma tricks
like sure if no other dps is doing anything
you send mobs running clear across the dungeon for the tank
I get an impression that this place is some hobby/sport club with a bunch of regulars who've been coming here for a long time
And then there are many newcomers who come here for their first free session because they're really excited to join the club and have this hobby in their lives
And then they never show up after their first session
very accurate
damn that's actually really accurate yeah haha
pretty much everyone who talks in here regularly knows each other by now

All six sub rogues
now maybe 7 if we don't scare away the new guy

Scarily accurate
Just take the non-tricks talent. 
nahh too much work š
The only thing youāre missing is investing a whole bunch of money on professional end equipment.
At one point on Ovi I had to swap since my burst was getting so high in the opener the second DK tank couldnāt get aggro back. The joys of slightly undergeared DKs for one fight.
I like it when tanks canāt handle my dps load too
@tepid trellis 


same
powerful orange
Me watching palmbeeās stream (iām down bad)

Thanks for posting your sub vods
They literally changed my life
This was my thoughts last night
Does your warrior post kills or stream?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Great analogy
ive now asked
Ronkley is my shadow rogue warrior go to
Fun is subjective
Arms arms arms
I could feast off the visuals alone.
The hero talents donāt change anything
demolish is fun
I'll feel at home then
I prefer arms play
that button hurts
Not like we have much choice in our talents
but fury doesnāt give me arthritis like outlaw.
My theory of "Sub rogue -> Arms warrior" correlation continues.
Been toying around with colossus arms and it's quite fun
What's that theory? Ppl quit subtlety rogue to play arms warrior?
Slayer gameplay just doesn't do it for me
Yeah, pretty much. Or that sub rogues also enjoy arms warrior
Because it does seem to be a pretty funny theme.
Yeah I'd never quit sub for arms unless its truly dire but def as a fun alt
and mw if I wanna heal bc they're amazingly fun atm

Depends how good you are with keybinds. Small hands. Good luck.
this emote is unfortunately cursed š
I've got everything at 600-610 but arms and mw/ww stick out as the most fun non-rogues
though San'layn UH is a good time
cleaving the big dot consume feels gnarly when you set up well
WW are pretty doom about their spec, but that's probably because everybody is doom about their spec 
Arms biggest issue is dmg rot surviving
I am always shocked by how little survivability warriors have
glass cannons
if its not parryable for arms they're kinda cooked
or spell reflectable
Survivability is probably the wrong word but like, they lack a lot of options.
fury at least gets a dr
Itās like pugging a warrior in BGs. Have a pocket healer and wreck fools
Yeah
Sub is surprisingly tanky
that's why you see guys like Bajheera with at least two healers on him at all times lol
Always adored how utterly unkillable Sub is
Survivability wise it's miles ahead of sin
Esp in TWW with our verse stacking on top of the baked in DR and shit. It owns.
20% vers and a ton of while in X gain defensive it is not surprising at all
Oh yeah I basically feel immortal outside of when I fuck up
Enhance for me. Been playing it since vanilla.
which is why I get assigned shit all the time 
Sub is one of the best classes for soloing older or challenging content before it's nerfed (DF raids, etc)
Yeah, I'm not talking about the figures. More about class fantasy.
Does recuperator work yet?
For me a rogue has never been the picture of just shrugging off hits like it's nothing
Besides evasion/dodge
sin has lifesteal and makes enemies do less damage, which is diffrent in design.
Sub can deal with burst damage better.
But the biggest diffrence is still the higher amount of versatility you run on sub.
also makes passive damage trinkets more viable
GL with class fantasy. Purple is immortal. Blizzard class fantasy.
Yeah, the 10% dr during dance is also big
and yer a cc bot in pvp
I'm annoyed target dummies are immune to ratfang toxin stacking so I can test how much damage it does over 5mins
Thatās as deep as subs class fantasy goes
Not like we're playing around that from a defensive perspective, but sometimes it aligns quite well
Just submit to the purple mate
Next season it's all we'll get
I'll submit to the purp when we're 90% kyveza
I would encourage sub on my enemy
I wanna become a purple ethereal when I dance
Currently 21% kyveza
rogue defensives are a mess, i wish they were more streamlined
YOU WILL DO A LOT OF DAMAGE WITH YOUR AUTO ATTACKS AND YOU WILL LIKE IT
I AM A DENIER I WILL NOT
How much more streamlines is do nothing, press fient or press cloak/evasion?
Wdym? Is that related to the dance dr comment?
Sometimes cloak/evasion don't work on the things you think they should
but that's a blizz thing not a rogue thing imo
thatās not a streamline issue
well, encounter team thing
well in the sense to make it more predictable and easier to understand what each button does
feint's description and when it works is sometimes quite random
cloak having a 1 sec "hard immune" part is also weird and cringe
of all the things wrong with sub/rogue, defensives aināt it
I think that's more on how mechanics are programmed than what the skills do, no?
You should be the last one standing every wipe

Yeah I agree with that
thats probably part of the problem yeh
Every patch is "let me die to this mechanic real quick to see if my defensive works or not"
exactly
Almost like you need to play the game to master your spec
what
I'm not really playing ptr/am not raiding on there, but I guess
test shit out
I feel like that statement is a bit disingenuous, Dave
hey this thing could be better
"well have you tried gitting gud?"
ok my bad
That's what innovation means
If a mechanic doesn't count as what it says it is in the dungeon journal
I feel like youāre looking for issues that are non existent. Press fient once. It worked? Great. Cloak didnāt work? Good to know.
How is that "not being a master of your spec"
good talk. 
so you think its cool that feint works on fyrak blazes but not on regicide, when its almost the same shit in blue?

I donāt care if it works or not as long as I know it does or doesnāt after I test it
And itās consistent
I know we have bigger problems than that. Doesn't make it not a problem though.
For that encounter
Learning and using defensives often separates good from great players.
where is the skill expression in trial and error
when it shouldnt be in the first place
the class fantasy of digging through logs to see if my defensive works
or just stand in it and press it?
are you not doing that with offensive abilities?
Or are you just relying on 4 people in here to do that for you?
Idk I like the reward of figuring it out
"it works source trust me"
or like when you can shadowstep cheese stuff
āIt works, source blizzard tool tipā
no i do exactly as you laid it out, im just sayings its bad design
The day I trust a blizzard tooltip is the day I hard switch to deathstalker
but for some reason we are running hardcore defense for unintuitive design
You're really making it easy for yourself here š
If there are zero deathstalker haters left, I am dead
Watching unnerfed princess defensive brainstorming was fun
that was simple tho
for rogue
that is
cloak / feint the charge with elusiv
evasion regicides
and feint when that runs out
if you arent cloaking charges time your cloak so it lasts the last two regicides in intermission
I think that blizzard has issues with the current energy CP classes as a whole
WW/Feral/Rogue all have issues in design
Idk how they fix it cos energy is either a resource or doesn't matter
imo
energy should be a thing that limits your out of cds output
which is why outlaw should be deleted
ADR is their SnD
i remember when AR did something
Why you guys always hating wtf
Bandit's Guile rise up
Turn sub into Empress arcana from lost ark @empty hornet thoughts?
just less rng please
no cull, judge pull rng
I think you were 11 the last time that was true
fuck yes
god yes
have you seen what they can do in tier 4
nah
their new T skill hits for like 5bil with cull
havent followed recent loa updates
It's not a competiton, they are both shit


neat
that + their finish spam
but ye empress arcana gameplay reminded me a lot of old sub rogue
they can pump out like 15bil dmg in 4 sec
its prolly why i loved it so much
https://logs.snow.xyz/logs/1689872
Didn't have any weapon power feast and the support was 1680 with pretty low gear (but insane uptime). Also missed a T skill right before x260 so I think my dps would have been ~165m with all these things fixed.
Missing around 55% gear compared to the top parses so should be able to do ~250m dps on equal terms
...

back to back T skill
@empty hornet hi.
so does reaper?????
but it does z
-.-
the one thing that was true for arcana for most of its life was that it had one of the highest skillcaps in the game, but also did insane damage if you played it right
meanwhile ignite sorc 
ye
rat class
but the combo point/doomcard system together with the temp buffs from the identity cards
is just too peak
but yeah i think the most broken classes atm is SE, Arcana and RE deathblade
RE blade 
RE IS NOT OKAY
ngl
surge blade was also very sub-rogue esque early on
their surge is omni
i know @bronze turret really loved it
and is nowa dash

ye me and DK (rip) played it
whats he even doing now
havent talked to him in a long time
dont think he responded to my last dm
is he still alive?
Last I heard heās a surv hunter rogue hater now
idk
last time he posted was in july
didnt respond to my dm
and hasnt been online anywhere for months
i kinda respect it
he hides offline on disc but i aint got him anywhere else
I think 11.0 tilted him enough to reroll, then he didnāt enjoy being something other than a rogue and quit? Idk
thank you mister, age catching up to us huh
ye every fucking year
i have 1 foot in the grave
kids taking a toll?
if you think 27 is going to be bad
buddy do I have news for you
u graying yet?
yeppers
my body is older than yours it barely works
not a single gray hair yet
I've been graying since 17
can imagine having 3 kids running around can get quite alot
I've officially had gray hairs more than half my life
at least 2 of them is just on 50%
i dye my hair so i dont even know if i have grey hairs
you should be used to it with wow raiding
ye i'm numb to stupidity
those 50% weekeends tho 

i think its tough just when my sister visits with her kid for 1 weekend
but i also dont do well with kids
its just one of those things, you learn to shut it out
In theory which spec you guys think we play in s2 m+ ?
in low keys?
or do you mean season
ah
prolly assa/sub
depends on key scaling tbh
atleast early season
if shit dies too fast assa aint that great
There is no good 1:30 trinket
i mean, even if outlaw would be the de facto best spec, theres no way ur touching that dogshit
well i wouldnt yeah
might as well quit wow if thats the case
facts
Outlaw because sub has no trinket and assa has no tier
havent played it since i played with a broken arm
outlaw is never the answer
just reroll class
possibly the worst spec to play with a broken arm
how is stealthi physically older than all of us old men?
Too much apm needed
cuz im dumb?
i have thicc bones
ive got a thicc ass
Too much apm for this damage is crazy
gotcha
played football for 18 years and never broke anything
I mean same, but I've never broken a bone
dont worry im more fucked up it just comes
I'm literally knocking on all the wood I can see
you get used to it
I think being run over helped you a WEE bit with that
im actually glad you never had to suffer it
i think this is where being short comes in handy, shorter bones, less likely to break em
well i've been ran over stabbed shot
well you probably have the voice in your head going " hey adam thats not very smart what you are about to do, you might get hurt"
i dotn
built like a tank
you name it
that's only when I'm on a tall balcony
and the "I wonder how much it hurts to free fall 14 stories"
thought pops into my head
"hey stealthi you dont have the balls to rail slide down this 20 stair"
what are they gonna do
proceeds to t ry
bill my corpse?
and break my tailbone
ah see that's your mistake
you have energy to do things
if you're just clinically depressed all the time
you have no energy
i think since i got hurt doing so much dumb shit as a kid
Stealthi true raccoon and have tail
ive just got rid of the "fear" of getting hurt
brother
I hurt my back shoveling snow
and I've been wincing in pain for 3 days
laying down hurts
i helped my dad with some wires few days ago
and my whole hand started bleeding
not sure i did it right
xD
but hey our washing machine works now
Was it the wiring or the blood sacrifice that fixed it, though?
yes
we will never find out
but i learned to not try and straighten out copper wires with my bare hands
another thing
they sharp
for the future
very pointy
don't try to straight out copper wires with bare hands while the electricity is still on
you're welcome

dont think ill try that
okay youve convinved me to try
Europe's electrical system is different from ours in two ways: the voltage of the current and the shape of the plug. American appliances run on 110 volts, while European appliances are 220 volts.
have fun!
well I can tell you with certainty, unless you have heart issues, 110v won't kill you
they are just scare cows / horses to not touch em again after doing it once
so they dont just try and jump em
@empty hornet I'll take things I can't type online for $1000
LOL
I can learn all types of things on this server, how to play rogue, don't touch copper wires with or without electricity with my bare hands
Euro appliance are different than us appliances with voltage
np
yo, just came back, is totd animation permanent above my fuckin head?
If you have So Tricky, yeah
ahh man, not a huge fan
yeah it's not great, looks like a perma-LoL emote
Why are people all of the sudden coming back?
prolly plunderstorm
might as well check out retail if you're back for that
New raid/season on the horizon
I am excited to Plunder tomorrow.
Island first for ring.
Legit keep forgetting ring weekly is a thing
Is there catch up with the Ring ?
The previous weekly ilvl upgrade quests become available right after doing the first one so you can catch up pretty quick
so like you start the one from the first week, finish it and then can start the next
they aren't very long at all, I think tomorrow will be the 4th upgrade for NA
iam testing some stuff on a dummy. when i do opener, sometimes my vanish breaks, anyone knows why?
any news on ptr? no thank you see you later
you can go on a car brrrrrrrrrrr
probably you spamming buttons and you do an auto attack inbetween gcd
You can't vanish directly after a finisher as sub
It's bugged
Cause of the finisher refound shit probably idk no idea
Just wait half a second before vanish and make sure you vanish SS directly
Ty guys
I find that in mists I constantly get unstealthed during the maze portion, known bug or blizz hates me?
Thats just how it is
how exciting!
i've had stop attacking for like 7 lines macro'd to vanish, this might help too
When you aren't talented into subterfuge, you need to wait outside the room till the mob did the spawn animation
If you are using subterfuge like on otl or ass it won't take you out anyway
it's a known feature š
i love that its a thing
especially with the talent TFD
it's really really fun
Not me. Just got home. Flipping ice all over
āIn fixing the tier setās shadow damage amp we accidentally removed all shadow damage from the spec. Because we donāt actually care weāre just gonna leave that, laters š ā
Iām so confused by these leveling guides
Iām just trying to figure out the talents for leveling
Use a character boost. Donāt actually level a rogue unless you really hate your life and want pain.
If you insist on leveling, Wowhead is shit on mobile. Open on desktop. Thereās a talent color key.
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Gameplay until 30 is actually backstabbing and eviscerating
Without shadow craft
Without premeditation
Without energy refund on finishers
The apm is very close to assa st in M+
Do we want both daggers 639 or one crafted?
Yes
Dagger craft was/is the best possible craft because it's high itemlvl from the start and also embellishment slot
If you can easily get 2nd boss daggers then it might not be worth it
But you also would have 2 good weapons if 1 drops and you craft one

Sparks should drop a good amount and crest/flightstones are farmable, so just do it
@swift tinsel thx mate
Embellishments are w/e rn. Just have a crafted dagger in offhand. Also no dagger current has versa mastery
I think next season 1 dagger has it
Itās just prepping you for sub gameplay outside of CDs
btw if embelishments don't scale with ilvl, doesn't it force us to play new ones?
or if the new ones are on par with the previous then in s3 they are going to be like 0.00001% increase?
Some do scale, itās just not a crazy amount.
The effects just become less relevant, but embellishment choice is already fairly irrelevant this season.
the game feels healthier with embels not being that good
considering how gated we are with crafting stuff
i like the ideas of embels but i hate pseudo choices
They're more fun than damage, but I like what they did to make flavour packet stuff more accessible with hearty food
agreed
They should add some more flavourful or useful embelishments. Maybe one that massively boosts move speed in old content, or something. But I quite like they're all a bit shit this season (expansion?, who knows) and you can just use whatever.
pmuch, the diffrence is so low it usually is irrelevant
Yeah
the best one is duskthread and it is still like half the power of last expansion ones kekw
Gm, dev notes?
Ye the 525 embellishments from df are stronger than current ones
i was actually thinking the other night about how BSL was stronger than our current embels
Just raw numbers wise it would be better to have the dragonflight 525 embellishment than the tww ones
in some ways i'm happy to have embels that aren't super impactful because it makes gearing less of a headache
but at the same time it's kind of like why do they even exist then
i think i'm over embellishments, i don't like em anymore
would like a new system
Ye, they could remove them and it's whatever.
They should rework embellishments to just have fun effects
Like increased movement speed, or being able to double jump
Haha yeah
I like gimmicky embellishments, so them being shit is nice for me cause now I can run stuff like the bumble bee buff allies one with out completely inting me
that could be cool, but they couldn't be too insane because then it would become this system where you only ever crafted 1 OP one
or you would craft the wrong one and then you couldn't do a boss fight the same as everyone else
The idea of having a way to make a crafted item potentially have a cantrip on par with something non-crafted is cool. But the balance of it, nah.
You can always recraft gear
I think they should just become QoL / utility stuff.
true, but that's a HUGE headache
Flavour packet-esque, movement speed. Sew an augment rune into your gear, etc
Nothing that applies to Dam% or Survivability, etc. But just stuff that makes stuff easier or more convenient
like imagine you get to a boss and everyone has to zone out of the raid and recraft their gear to deal with a certain mechanic
The potion tinker should be:
- Be an embellishment
- Not have the insanely stupid malus
I am missing all the world content ones from DF that didn't really count as an embellishments, just a small bonus like the parachute, bandage amp etc
I liked the embellishment that allowed your food buff to stay after death
Yeah, flavour packet
Just add stuff like that
But they did the smart thing and bake that into cooking itself, which is the right call imho.
small stuff like that would be cool, but it would very quickly become a "who cares" system haha
I think that's fine.
the novelty would wear off very quickly
Killed myself too many times in time walking cause it doesn't scale down
man i just want artifact weapons back
One of the biggest requests from old content runners is movespeed. Which is why I think a movespeed in legacy content would be huge. Or letting you mount in instances below max, etc
i'm a big movespeed bandwagoner
i got a lot of flack during SL for gemming full move speed gems
like the pvpers did
Also, you could take the bonus of different professions and make them an embellishment. I..e, you know how Alchemy has double potion duration? Make it an embellihsment so non-alchemists can make a choice there.
i got a lot of "why are you gemming speed, just get more damage"
and my thought process was i'm moving like 8-10% faster than you
Yeah, movespeed owns
yeah people think move speed is overrated till you play something like a priest haha
Rogueās 1 second gcd is too addictive
1 sec gcd is a blessing and curse
i play with high ms anyways so more speed really helps
since you can't barely dodge things with higher ms
half my deaths and cheat procs from blades on queen are because of my ms
i'll barely dodge a blade and be safe on my screen, but the game says NOPE
What causes the delay on cps refunding, sometimes I hit a builder cause it refunds to 4 then right before it goes off it refunds to 7
It never refunds to 4, it always refunds to max
!delay
But having replicating shadows specced makes it so the refunds can proc even when you didnt do a finisher right before
(if you get to 7 sht stacks that is)
Howās sub looking on the PTR,
Any day now the ritualposting will work
This time next week we'll have big notes. I can feel it. In my replicating shadows.
big notes = bugfixes please
They'll take it literally. Size 500 notes. It's one word. "Nothing."
(x) doubt
Are you raiding on full NA guild or?
I was surprised when my MS was normal with you yesterday.
I see we're all ready for another round of #nochanges
Damn right
Hell yeah Dave profile picture.
The Subtley rogue eagerly awaiting patch notes emoji
Did realz fully tap out from the disc?
Same, after I eat too much cheese.
People in this channel every reset wait for notes not vault š while everyone else wait for vault usually xD
I don't think I even have a vault this week lol
I'm in vacation mode this late in the season
I'm chasing two drops from vault, and it's just so fruitless haha
more sub talk in chat would be welcome, when sub was fotm s2 df there were so many new folks, was fun to read
lmao right
looks like its giving sideeye
the arcane gigachad
Demo is just Handsome Squidward
this is very good too.
They're good
Also: ring upgrade quest live in EU early again. Prizes without having to do the dumb fill a bar quest tomorrow.
na and eu get the ring upgrade at the same time, was always like this
Yeah, I know it's been consistently like this but it could suddenly change, for some reason 
Any changes on PTR?
been playing a lot of rogue (sub, obv) on the free trial, how is overall levelling with the spec in the full game? I haven't tried the others purely cause i really enjoy the quick burst sub offers
evening NA*
It's fine. Rogue in general is awkward to level as a lot of our power is quite late. But leveling is very quick. Sub is pretty comfy to level as, though. Nice burst, quick movement, etc.
But the majority of the game is in the end-game, so leveling is a relatively short experience these days.
sounds good, thanks
thinking of getting a membership for a month, sinking some more time into rogue after my mock exams - and sinking time into WoW in general
ptr update does not even need to be today
Yeah I expect a lot of resources will be towards making sure plunderstorm is ready to go
maybe ptr update thurs
is plunderstorm next week?
today
Should be today
6 hour maintenance
It's meant to go live at 1AM going by the calender.
PlunderFarm begins again š«”
Hell yeah
they just started ~30mins ago in NA
Gonna get everything, again.
I think I played maybe two rounds the first time it was live lol
I just did nothing but for a few days until I had the track finished and all achievements, etc
i guess i know what i do today/tomorrow ^^
I'm pretty excited for it. I liked it enough the first time that i've often thought it'd be fun to just dive in
okay chat, what is the highest simming plunderstorm build, i need to know
Triple parrots and a slice of pineapple
I farmed rep through the quest/blunder method, avoided players like a plague
wonder if I can do that again
Yeah, I suspect so
i remember trying this and it felt horrible so i just went to try to play for first/second
I'd land at the troll area or the hidden dock area, grind up, etc.
that red axe
with like all movmeent abiltieis
a banger no cap
best simming
i done the math
based
I landed mostly near horde settlement, farm the mine and rares around, die near the wall
They've made some changes, too. Curious how it'll feel.
have funn out there everyone š«”
fish was quite good, so the one holding the fish is onto a winning build
The new reward system looks pretty nice, might need to play a few rounds since there's no hard-locked reward track this time
Plunderstorm Countdown: <t:1736888400:R>
(assuming no further delays)
assuming it goes live global after the servers are online in na
that'd be what, 8pm CET?
10pm
oh duh its 1pm PST not my timezone
how important is to actually finish the campaign on alt, do u guys know
i finished on main and did skip on alt but still offers me quests
and im not sure i got weekly
Well its because youre playing an ultra offspecc unplayable class
(despite it being on the frontpage on rio)
Yes and no
Its a shame 33% of the pve content is deleted because you play the wrong spec
Its not like swapping to assa really helps anyway
Ye same
( I timed everything in 18)
People legit fiend for Aug
Over anything else
It's kinda wild to me
Aug/enh
Basically applying to a group missing either of those you aren't getting in ever
Even if I'm giga out rioing the key
Idk it's weird
Such is life when youre playing such an obscure offmeta spec
Assa isn't even that off meta tho
Ye thats my point
