tribal blade
#

yeah true

tulip gorge
#

is black powder a recent thing?

barren wolf
#

yes

tulip gorge
#

interesting

tribal blade
#

since shadowlands

tulip gorge
#

I thought they always had it

barren wolf
#

should've kept the jumping in air ability

#

that wouldve been funny

tribal blade
#

nah sub used to have literally no aoe finisher

#

just evis

#

and death from above for a while

tulip gorge
#

that sounds awful ngl

tribal blade
#

but monster funnel

barren wolf
#

it was the prio spec

#

so yeah

tribal blade
#

the funnel was so crazy strong they bricked sub for the entire of bfa

#

just because of 1 raid boss

barren wolf
#

sorry, that was cause of me

keen dome
#

damn

barren wolf
#

i never played sub and got a 80 log on zul

#

on 30 fps

keen dome
#

can't believe you made BfA so bad for me

#

we're enemies now

tribal blade
#

i'll never forgive blizz for how they handled sub in bfa

keen dome
#

same

tribal blade
#

those were dark days

keen dome
#

It's less the removal of combo and more the silence and lack of anything to fix the hole.

barren wolf
#

i think its a lesson they learned. they used to never touch specs with big changes mid expansion but now they do it all the time

keen dome
#

It also came in last minute (Wasn't on PTR, etc iirc)

#

So just BLAM, gone.

#

And then they nerfed Zul a few days later

alpine wraith
#

the best one is they also had 2 another outs

#

introduced replicating it was super good and awesome

#

proceed to kill it before it even hits live

#

create echoing blades for sub/assa

#

delete sub part

#

??¿¿ make first dance make it give worst stat and also nerf the stacking by like 60%

vale pine
#

echoing was only sub

#

from labeling

#

thats why we assumed it was for both

#

but turned out, they did only want it for assassination

#

with the irony being that it was extremely op, but people loved to play ttk instead

barren wolf
#

i liked playing 3x SS

#

felt best for me

#

i was pure feel crafting

keen dome
#

Can't wait to see what they cook up for Midnight and if it's just purple coup de grace

round latch
#

infinite cps

#

smoking priest and shamans and hunters before they can trinket

vale pine
keen dome
#

Ye, truth

#

But I'm betting we'll get 'void corrupted' hero talent variants.

#

Which'll just add a twist to existing talents. Easy way to expand them thematically while keeping core gameplay consistent. And adding fun stuff on top.

#

Or in Sub's case coup is now purple

barren wolf
#

deathstalker is purple

#

thats literally the whole theme

#

purple

keen dome
#

Deathstalker becomes light-theme'd

#

bam, I'm on a roll.

frank musk
#

Deathstalkers new mechanic will involve beating Death at a card game that changes the rules every 30 seconds.

keen dome
#

Haha, hell yeah

alpine wraith
#

and then you get parried

frank musk
#

And then you say 'Nope the parry can not parry me because i have the heart of the cards' and you ignore the parry defence entirely.

barren wolf
#

erm, you swap to trickster and cant get parried

frank musk
#

As a famous deathstalker once said 'i always win, thats how the game works'

barren wolf
#

what the shrigma

frank musk
#

Now you get it.

#

😉

barren wolf
#

oh yeah i can get it

frank musk
#

The true trickery of trickster, is that you aint a deathstalker getting parried

keen dome
#

They should bake the no parry thing into Rogue and have it be our utiltiy

#

It's cool

#

Rogue's Cunning: +5% Crit to the entire group and melee strikes and abilities can no longer be parried.

barren wolf
#

5% crit is quite a fuckload

keen dome
#

Passive aura buff

#

Yeah I pulled the numbers outta my ass 😄

#

Frankly you could just have it be "Melee strikes and abilities can no longer be parried" and it'd be a huge DPS increase for everybody with melee stuff regardless of statting

#

But i like the stat on top

#

I guess versatiltiy would make more sense, but that's the druid thing

#

I suppose because it's Cunning.. "+2% to your highest secondary stat and <the parry thing>" might make more sense.

#

More flexible. More thematic to the Rogue versatility. And easier to fit into any group because it's a bit of everything.

barren wolf
#

yea we have our raid buff so...

#

and yes for blizzard that is the raid buff

keen dome
nocturne birch
#

!wa

wicked joltBOT
odd sandal
#

guys whats the reason to use shadow blades after shadow tech in ST and other way around in multi target?

plush roost
#

The initial hit of sec tec is amplified by ShB so in aoe the amp is worth it. If I had to guess

hazy breach
#

Shadow blades does not buff the clones from sectech

#

And the initial hit doesnt do that much, but it doesnt really matter if you use it before or after the sectech. The important part is that its after the strike

#

No idea why hes put it being different on aoe and ST though

glacial hinge
#

could be cuz of seconds? to make the other tech fit inside cd's?

#

since its another 2 gcd?

hazy breach
#

Theres no difference between aoe and st in that aspect

crystal bone
#

good question tam, i had wondered about that the other day

odd sandal
#

I will autopilot and cast it after then

#

Seems like it doesn't rlly matter unless we are missing smth

void hound
#

finally back home, how are the dev notes looking 🙂

keen dome
#

You get one guess.

crystal bone
crystal bone
fallow nimbus
#

With this rate we won't even reach the 16 ptr notes

#

My prediction was too generous kekw

swift tinsel
#

we're at what, 3 bullet points now?

#

2 of which were pvp things

void hound
crystal bone
#

yea

#

u spell his name the same way

#

so i thought u might have lol

hazy breach
#

Theres plenty of opportunity anyway

swift tinsel
#

They haven't fixed tier sets yet bc they're redoing all of them hopium

alpine wraith
#

and as always wonder how many sub rogues will be in testing

#

not me

#

kekw

swift tinsel
#

I will be just to check reset mechanics then donezo

alpine wraith
#

nah there is always at least one or two

alpine wraith
#

im fonting

keen dome
#

🙏

sly shore
#

SUB NOW HAS A TRINKET

#

😄

foggy geode
#

Do I wanna use or prio rupture with 'Supercharge' proc

keen dome
#

Outlaw's set got a (minor?) buff so maybe they also fixed the other two sets not working properly.

leaden prairie
#

its a massive nerf

keen dome
#

oh

leaden prairie
#

going from 25% chacne of proccing 5 buff to 9%

#

rest is unchanged

#

idk why the wording is so poorly written

keen dome
#

Well, they touched the set so maybe they actually made Sub's work

leaden prairie
#

but the example at the end explains it

pliant topaz
leaden prairie
#

like there is no point to play sleight anymore, so the tier set is also irrelevant and useless

vestal escarp
#

Wuh wuh wuh what happened

keen dome
#

At least we have a trinket....

kind bluff
#

Trinket change is nice for us.

patent crystal
#

How does new trinket compare to transmitter?

vestal escarp
#

Huh

#

We got 90s skadryn

sick jackal
#

did we get any bug fixes?

hybrid prism
#

They took out the dash mechanic for coup lol

#

You now have to be in melee range to use it and the dash it removed

keen dome
#

Yeah, it's good

vestal escarp
#

Its for the better

hybrid prism
#

Agreed. I play and enjoy deathstalker, but when I had to play trickster that shit was annoying. It never killed me, but I sure as hell came close on queen a few times

chrome palm
#

Hope they do something about unseen blade. Its almost as annoying as old shadow techniques

#

Especially considering they just helped make sentinel easier to track, hopefully they do the same with unseen

swift tinsel
#

With thousand cuts idk how that would be functionally worth it

#

Bc you’d just have a timer resetting fairly frequently

crisp lion
#

Anyone know if tier set is working on ptr now?

hazy breach
#

I guess we have a trinket now and 2 min specs get stuck with the shitty priory one

keen dome
#

Yeah, it's a SUB season now. dracthyr_kek

#

suboptimal

#

I am curious at what iLevel House of Cards will surpass transmitter, but it does seem like a huge chunk of mastery

hazy breach
#

Having passive mastery with agi on-use wouldve been better for sure

keen dome
#

Yeah

hazy breach
#

But probably worth it as soon as you get it

alpine wraith
#

we are free from transmitter

#

im so happy

#

still in lantern hell tho

keen dome
#

Haha

alpine wraith
#

at least most hc passives are better than it

#

thx god 619m is max ilvl

hazy breach
#

Like ye transmitters minigame isnt unplayable, but it undeniably costs some mental bandwidth

keen dome
#

What was the mastery DR? 22k or something?

hazy breach
#

Since we cant expect any changes to our spec itself this is like the best change we couldve gotten Surebud

pliant topaz
#

damn

#

bros given up the dream

wind canopy

Eleem

in retirement

lilac stag
#

We got asked specs for next season. Warrior / SV. 🙏🏻

swift tinsel
#

Yeah we’re getting the spreadsheet link soon lol

#

I think like 1/3 of our raid team isn’t coming back

hexed sluice
#

House of cards from the raid or a dungeon?

lilac stag
#

I’d bounce of the raid didn’t look so fun

alpine wraith
#

from raid

hexed sluice
#

Bless

uneven scarab
#

Sub trinket exists

keen dome
#

From the slot machine boss iirc

uneven scarab
#

We hype joe_pray

hexed sluice
#

Maybe my raid will actually see it on heroic this season

alpine wraith
#

also eye of kezan buffed for us Eye of Kezan, Mug’s Moxie Jug, and Reverb Radio should trigger more consistently across all talent specializations.

#

it was proccing like ass for sub

hexed sluice
#

Im still rocking a champ track transmitter and it was a warbound drop from heroic on my resto shaman :C

alpine wraith
#

although it seems another smolderon trink situation

fallow nimbus
#

what if we all play trickster in the first weeks of 11.1 and deathstalker gets another round of buffs? we may play miserable but dmg is over the top

keen dome
#

What if we do the reverse?

#

Just get everone to play DS.

fallow nimbus
#

and get trickster buffs, that's smart

lilac stag
#

Just play assa

#

Or outlaw

keen dome
#

Haha

lilac stag
#

55% BP buff week 2

uneven scarab
fallow nimbus
#

it it doesn't happen in 11.x then it will happen with midnight

#

bp>eviscerate in all scenarios

lilac stag
#

Nah. Just removing evicerate to help with button bloat.

bright sundial
fallow nimbus
#

eviscerate, yes

uneven scarab
#

Honestly just delete bp and evis

#

Storm and strike only

#

Generator only

lilac stag
#

Keep rupture up

#

Duh

bright sundial
#

also ST bye bye

lilac stag
#

Good riddance

fallow nimbus
#

rupture spam soon is just the first step

lilac stag
#

Since assa isn’t a dot spec any more. Let sub go full dot bitch

keen dome
#

Haha

kind bluff
#

We should only use shuriken storm. No other buttons

uneven scarab
#

Yeah lets go full rupture

#

everything applies rupture

lilac stag
#

Except RS

#

Cause it’s bugged

uneven scarab
#

Rs actually adds -20% shadow damage too

lilac stag
#

gloom blade rupture gameplay

#

Do it realz

keen dome
#

gloom blade! purple backstab! let's go!

bright sundial
#

join me my fellow subs we prepare and advance to tomorrow

oh had did that rascel 1 get there OMEGAKEKW

keen dome
#

Someday that'll be us.

#

Because they'll use size 200 text

uneven scarab
#

true

dry plank
#

What notes? New changes or what?

uneven scarab
#

It’ll be like 4 words

#

In size 200 font

#

There was ptr notes

molten citrus
#

(no rogue changes again)

alpine wraith
#

yea some outlaw krangled changes

#

you might want to see the reactions

uneven scarab
#

It’s quite priceless in there

molten citrus
#

looks like a net nerf on sleight and their tier? dunno

alpine wraith
#

tier was and still is omegaweak

#

if it even worked correctly

molten citrus
#

it seemed kinda good

#

actually

#

5roll chance was very high

alpine wraith
#

the problem was if you are unlucky you stay with 1 buff for a long time

#

maybe some changes fix it

molten citrus
#

ye well the 2rolls weren't working properly

uneven scarab
#

It went from a 25% chance to a 9%

#

Pretty huge nerf tbh

ebon oyster
#

!guide

wicked joltBOT
hazy breach
#

Anybody check if the tier works yet

vale pine
alpine wraith
#

didnt log in yet

molten citrus
vale pine
#

not on pc, can test tomorrow

swift tinsel
#

Can test in a couple hours

blazing flax
#

Looking at streams it Looks Like its working

hollow spear
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
swift tinsel
#

sure enough it looks like its dropping

#

Gramhehe pov on twitch

chrome palm
#

The tier now removes winning streak

#

i dunno if it increases shadow damage thio

swift tinsel
#

baby steps

haughty mural
molten citrus
#

oh did they change a trinket to 1.5?

haughty mural
#

ye
house of cards

uneven scarab
#

Yeee

#

We have a trinket now

hazy breach
#

And assa doesnt get it kek

molten citrus
#

which one is that

uneven scarab
#

Good 7412tomhorny

swift tinsel
#

mastery on use

hazy breach
#

mastery on-use

molten citrus
#

:O

swift tinsel
#

that adds more mastery every time you use it

molten citrus
#

pog

#

that should be quite good

swift tinsel
#

of all trinkets to do it to I'm happy its that one

#

now we just gotta get them to swap the static and on-use stats

keen dome
#

That'd be nice, hell yeah

swift tinsel
#

orrrr make it mastery %

#

hitting dr territory otherwise but still a nice gain

uneven scarab
#

Our mastery next tier gonna be absolutely fucked

#

no doubt lmfao

swift tinsel
#

just pure vers gaming

uneven scarab
#

Already have so much mastery this tier

haughty mural
#

they got skardyns

swift tinsel
#

plus if we're running energy drink

#

passive mastery procs

#

kezan is static mastery, azerokk mastery proc

#

we swimmin

hazy breach
#

Ok so they fixed it so stacks now fall off

#

But it still doesnt amp our shadow damage

uneven scarab
hazy breach
#

Because house of cards even when low rolled gives a fair bit more than the priory trinket/skardyn kek

uneven scarab
#

balanced joe_stare

alpine wraith
#

yea and it stacks

#

priory is funny it stacks with the group

#

but who cares about group dps and the value is not even super high

uneven scarab
#

Bro double stacking icon and chromatic essence in s4 df

wind canopy
#

Looks like a couple of people are testing sub in tettles's stream

uneven scarab
#

With the group

#

Was a blast

hazy breach
#

Even if you have 4 allies using it

alpine wraith
#

yep

#

imagine running numbers at blizz

hazy breach
#

They purposefully make raid trinkets stronger though, but idk how much stronger theyre aiming for

alpine wraith
#

idk eye of kezan and some actives are strong well not like the old days

#

but i think those are a bygone era

#

even spymaster's seems tame in comparison

swift tinsel
#

ah grieftorch

uneven scarab
#

Wtf could be stronger than spymasters

hazy breach
#

50% of all trinkets in dragonflight

uneven scarab
#

Well ya true

#

i thought he meant rn

edgy zenith
swift tinsel
#

678 is the new max myth track right

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

ty ty

edgy zenith
#

If I have to run Dark Brew, I’m ending it

hazy breach
#

Ofc it should work with dark brew

edgy zenith
#

No thanks 🙂

uneven scarab
#

Embrace the shadow

edgy zenith
#

Mandatory Dark brew because of a tier set sounds awful

uneven scarab
#

we are zed now

hazy breach
#

Why

edgy zenith
#

Bc Dark Brew means no 3 symbols

hazy breach
#

Just play 2

edgy zenith
#

Dark Brew side of tree is cursed

#

No

alpine wraith
#

or soul cap

#

hell even coral font etc

#

trinkets used to be WAO MAN LETS GOOO

#

now it is like

#

oh nice 5%

uneven scarab
#

oh well yeah

alpine wraith
#

same as embellish

uneven scarab
#

Trinkets were so much more of ur power

#

True

#

Embel so bad now

#

I havent even crafted one on my dk alt lmao

fallow nimbus
#

wasn't that 2min before?

keen dome
#

Yeah, they changed it today

uneven scarab
#

Ye they changed it

#

Its huge

#

We gaming

keen dome
#

Celebrate the Sub changes.

uneven scarab
#

^^

lilac stag
#

Watch it go live at 2 minutes

uneven scarab
#

Holy

#

Ill end it all

keen dome
#

lmao, I'd be so unsurprised if it did

#

I'm still expecting a load of hotfixes to be broken again (and hoping to be proven wrong)

lilac stag
#

My expectation of them keeping changes logged correctly is so low

uneven scarab
#

Undermine comes out an they release the wrong version again xD

lilac stag
#

But that would be the most sub rogue change without being a rogue change

alpine wraith
#

imagine they push the vers with coup dash

#

CINEMA

solemn creek
#

Is sub tier bonus working in ptr now 😅

uneven scarab
#

amp not working still

solemn creek
#

😦

#

5 more week to go

#

Or more

swift tinsel
#

SoonTM

hazy breach
#

Its now possible to lose the stacks like intended though

#

-1 bug

stiff spear
#

wow

swift tinsel
#

A win is a win

#

Has anyone checked how coup affects it?

hazy breach
#

I have not checked if coup is per hit or per cast no

#

Seems annoying to get conclusive data on

lucid jackal
#

I thought ppl said there wasnt a new 1:30 trinket

#

Isnt this 1:30

hazy breach
#

It was 2 min until today

lucid jackal
#

Ah

#

are we back!?

#

Sub szn

wind canopy
vestal escarp
#

Perfect for raid logging

hollow spear
#

which boss drops this?

keen dome
#

The slot machine one

hollow spear
#

is that early or late in the raid?

teal prawn
#

Sub season wooo

twilit phoenix
#

just came in here to shitpost about that trinket change

#

hella pog

#

probs still not as good as a main stat tho?

pliant topaz
#

no, but also better than what sub had so isa win

alpine wraith
#

yea ideally would be whatever stat then use agi

#

but beggars cant be choosers

hollow spear
#

mastery is almost on par with agi for me

#

the agi values on transmitter are kinda absurd

pliant topaz
#

i remember the first iteration of transmitter

#

now that.... that was pure aids

lucid jackal
#

Mitter also is a cringe trinket, mitter also has haste as a baseline stat on it

uneven scarab
#

what was first iteration…..

lucid jackal
#

If nothing else, this is "something" that isnt mitter at high ilvls

pliant topaz
#

it wasnt an on use trinket

uneven scarab
pliant topaz
#

taking actions gave u a stack

#

at 10 stacks u would then get the task u do now

uneven scarab
#

That sounds

#

Terrible…..

pliant topaz
#

its rppm was about one stack every 6 seconds

#

so roughly every minute

hollow spear
#

"please focus the add" - "nah, sorry I am busy jumping/chasing an orb"

pliant topaz
#

so imaigne, on queen, u would almost gaurantee get it at the end of intermission

#

u also could never get it on the opener

#

it was just an anomoly of dogshit

hollow spear
#

the baseline stat is cringe for sure

#

but the trade off is worth

twilit phoenix
#

yeah I'm defs not shitting and pissing in my pants about losing transmitter

#

that shit kills my boner everytime

#

sub tier would be pog for sure

hazy breach
#

I agree, but tbf most of this tier was sub as well

uneven scarab
#

true

vestal escarp
#

Depends on povs imo

#

A lot of rogues progged as sin

#

At different levels

uneven scarab
#

sin was easily the m+ king but idk prog as sub felt pretty damn good to me

vestal escarp
#

It did for sure i wasnt denying that

uneven scarab
#

i do think theres def more raid bosses where sin just makes perfect sense though

#

i do see that

hazy breach
#

Ye later on especially

#

But the tankiness for sub is neat

uneven scarab
#

yeah for sure

#

feels good

hollow spear
#

Yeah it's more or less 15% dr + another 10% during dance

hazy breach
#

And 8% more healing taking

hollow spear
#

Also

#

Sub cooldowns feel better on queen

hollow spear
#

Deathmark feels bad in p2

vestal escarp
#

Design wise sin is nowhere near the days of not being a choice for M raid

#

And sub is sub so there'll always be sin raiders in M

hazy breach
#

If theres an important execute sin could see more use

vestal escarp
#

Since it attracts less players

#

Yeah not to talk about niches

hazy breach
#

But they usually stray away from phases having independant damage nowadays

pliant topaz
foggy geode
#

Btw does Fatal Intent snapshot should I save dance+symbol when it procs?

pliant topaz
#

bro that thing does 5 damage

#

ignore it

foggy geode
#

Alright

hazy breach
pliant topaz
#

oh yeah i guess pre nerf unkillable raz

#

but yeah they turbo nerfd it week 1

hollow spear
#

I mean

#

Sin still giga performs on rash

upper narwhal
#

House of Cards change on PTR is good for us yeah?

hazy breach
#

Yes

#

Weekly PTR update

• House of Cards cooldown reduced to 1.5 minutes (was 2 minutes), duration reduced to 15 seconds (was 20 seconds), and reduced variance of potential Mastery to ±10% (was 15%).

There is now a 90 second cooldown trinket for us to use, which means we probably wont use transmitter for the entire patch. Very cool.
No other changes though and tier set is still bugged, see y'all next week for another line of change!
hybrid prism
#

thanks @hazy breach

#

doing God's work

lucid jackal
#

Dude I'm having so much fun on rogue rn

#

Like I think its fair to complain

hybrid prism
#

sub is really fun

#

imo

lucid jackal
#

about the lack of attention, bugs, small/large things depending on how dramatic you want to be (not meant to be flame)

#

But man rogue is just fun

hybrid prism
#

also, I cannot wait until we can stop using transmitter

hazy breach
#

Besides deathstalker in aoe ye i agree with you guy

lucid jackal
#

Sub rn for me is like, near perfect form

hybrid prism
#

agreed

#

you guys are looking at the rank 4 sub rogue on Proudmoore. I'm kind of a big deal

#

well for m+

#

forgot to say that

hazy breach
#

My main complaints are about stuff that mostly raise the skill floor but doesnt raise the skill ceiling. Aka it just makes the spec harder to learn without much payoff

#

and/or quality of life, some of them could be described to be both ig

hybrid prism
#

Yeah. I honestly love it so much right now. It's what I've always wanted sub to be.

alpine wraith
#

yea i mean explaining people

#

hey dont evis outside danmce

#

is easy

#

but not everyone is looking for the info

hybrid prism
#

even aoe with bp right now i dont mind

#

are yall using bp out of dance instead of evis as trickster? whaaa

hazy breach
#

@lucid jackal Did you see the stupid ass deathstalker aoe gain we found a while ago

#

Its like a 6% gain to purposefully strike another target instead of consuming the last mark, since casting BPs is significantly more damage than DN eviscerate

alpine wraith
#

ahaha i hope he seeis it

#

so degen

#

basically you dont want to proc your capstone

hazy breach
#

And it also gives you more clear the witnesses procs

alpine wraith
#

because they buffed shadow and CTW so much

hybrid prism
#

like the one thing id change for sub is to make gloomblade baseline instead of backstab as our builder and put dark brew in that talent spot. Then replace dark brew with something new

alpine wraith
#

and also use bp

#

that also got buffed 3 times

fallow nimbus
#

simply having DN up, ability to generate marks and consuming DN only giving 3 marks if the target really has no marks should be the fix

hazy breach
#

Ye like how it worked for the first 3-4 weeks of the expansion kek

fallow nimbus
#

stacking infinite marks and every 3 marks consumed gives you DN

#

every mark adds +dmg

vestal escarp
#

Yeah lets just switch my priority target mid dance

alpine wraith
#

there is no prio target with bp on the mix

#

because singular focus is wank

#

and CTW hits like a truck

vestal escarp
#

End of season and i still struggle to understand why people hate pressing an evis thats stronger than combo in packs

vestal escarp
hazy breach
#

Because after the buffs to other things its not strong now (DN evis that is)

alpine wraith
#

if they also had buffed singular for sub

#

in that 75% buff thing they did

vestal escarp
#

Yeah they buffed the fixed plague dmg

Which only corrupt the blood could benefit singular dmg post buff

#

But corrupt the blood is a meme

foggy geode
#

Do you guys macro shadowblades+dance+symbol together or is that a bad idea

#

Been playing with them separately so far

hazy breach
#

You dont always press them at the exact same time

#

So no i would not recommend that

alpine wraith
#

cool eh

#

also btw it gets better because it is uncapped dmg from CTW

lucid jackal
#

Kinda funny

alpine wraith
#

so at like 20 targets

#

you do so much more dmg

#

than actually proccing DN

#

only problem is if your target that you striked dies with mark

#

why? becacuse it PROCS DN AHAHAHA

#

proccing capstone dps loss kekw

hazy breach
#

Nowadays DN evis does about the same damage as BP does on 2.5 targets

alpine wraith
#

i'm still debating on telling it but idk

twilit phoenix
lucid jackal
#

In aoe or st

twilit phoenix
#

St

lucid jackal
#

u only CTW when sod is down

twilit phoenix
#

Ah word so probs not in dance then

lucid jackal
#

so u end up not consuming a few procs thru a fight

twilit phoenix
#

Thanks for the sub advice mr outlaw

alpine wraith
#

you can use storm if you only need 2 cp to get to 5 or 7 if DN is up

#

with new tier set you do extra shadow dmg

#

so ctw hits harder than strike

Just got home, have things been figured out reset-wise?

#

Or is it Haptics Dummy Time

#

Stuff like coup reset, flat 15% vs stacked deck, each finisher having unique reset chance, etc

#

Happy to test any/all of these bc I have no life

tepid trellis
#

very different

bleak wind
#

better than s3/s4 though

swift tinsel
#

Coup is def per-hit, had 7 so far reset at different points of coup's damage events
no stacked deck, sent 13 evisc before a reset at one point

clever delta
#

Pushing house of cards to 90s make us very happy right

#

Since the other 90s is 🗑

kind bluff
#

It's deff not a bad thing.

tribal blade
#

where are THE SUB ROGUE DEV NOTES

#

AHHHHHHHH

swift tinsel
#

also I'm pretty sure SF has a sep chance to proc reset bc I talented out of it and I'm getting 0-1 resets per minute

teal prawn
swift tinsel
#

of just building and spending with evisc

#

vs 3-5 resets per min with SF

tribal blade
#

shoot a bunch of flares out

teal prawn
#

Spectral sight should do it

swift tinsel
#

can go a full minute at 10 stacks outside of dance with no shadowed finishers

wind canopy
tribal blade
#

that's a change for 1.5 min specs

wind canopy
spark tusk
#

wait what is this image I wanted picture not themes

tribal blade
#

haha

swift tinsel
#

Okay so running no shadowed finishers is kinda funny, I'm consistently going around a minute with no resets playing normal between-cd rotation

tribal blade
#

need more sub rogue specific changes

#

fix our shit

swift tinsel
#

Delete SF

lilac stag
#

DETELE Sub

tribal blade
#

mega cursed

swift tinsel
#

it doesn't anyways

#

bahaha

#

intentional

tribal blade
#

oh it doesn't?!

#

well

swift tinsel
#

shadow dmg amp still broken

#

on 4pc

#

but yeah its very much looking like a separate proc chance on the phys vs shadow hit of finishers

#

and coup is 100% per-hit vs per cast

#

so its a huge liability outside dance to send

#

unless its like

#

your first finisher after cd's and you're not gonna dance again for like 20-30 seconds

#

even then

#

also gone 10+ evisc casts before a reset on multiple occasions

#

all of these outside dance

tribal blade
#

rng be rng

swift tinsel
#

Gonna do more testing to see if its got a ppm

tribal blade
#

would be interesting if the resets had a ppm

bleak wind
#

I don't think holding coup for dance is that bad with the buffs to black powder, pretty sure you can just go back to what you did before and hold it, at least I do

swift tinsel
#

bc it's fairly consistently been 3 resets per minute

#

even when going bs - evisc

#

at low cp

#

sometimes 4 or 5 but mostly 3

swift tinsel
#

you'll lose the cdr

#

but it'll even out bc you'd need to not cast like...8 casts of coup or something like that over the course of a fight

crystal bone
#

hmm, does sub have execute?

swift tinsel
#

Nope

#

unless you count fatal intent, which you shouldn't

crystal bone
#

eww deathstalker :p

bleak wind
#

fatal intent can't execute a critter

pliant topaz
#

We’ll optimize it once koji implements it.

#

Right now I think there were some insanely niche optimizations to bp for coup in flag that was like 0.2% gain even. But it’s niche enough that I never added it in

pliant topaz
#

Yea

molten citrus
#

that sounds so incredibly cooked that it's intriguing

pliant topaz
#

Wanna know what’s actually cooked though?

molten citrus
#

do i

pliant topaz
#

I also found a 0.2-0.3% optimization to cancel aura finality to always finality darkest night.

molten citrus
#

i've been seeing memes of rupture-rupture-rupture-rupture being posted

pliant topaz
#

But that wasn’t something a human could do, and if u ever fucked it up once, it was a dps loss overall. So never added that one either

molten citrus
#

but we just do it by casting rupture during our dance

pliant topaz
molten citrus
swift tinsel
#

inb4 they add rupture reset chance

pliant topaz
#

They might. It resets for sin

swift tinsel
#

It would be healthier if they did

molten citrus
#

it's crazy how bad things have gotten

pliant topaz
#

Idk if it would

#

It would just make a spec a ba rng fiesta

molten citrus
#

as far as degenarate gameplay optimizations go

pliant topaz
#

Unlike sin or many other specs, when u get this buff matters a lot more for sub

bleak wind
swift tinsel
#

I would honestly take the rng over just hitting rupture or sitting at full cp/sht

#

from a gameplay perspective

pliant topaz
swift tinsel
#

as someone who legitimately doesn't like rng affecting my performance

bleak wind
#

aah

molten citrus
#

that's so cooked

bleak wind
#

tbh the coup thing I am kinda eyeballing it, if my dance is near I just hit black powder and hold coup for dance

swift tinsel
#

That's what happens when blizz doesn't get why people dont like DS so they turbo buff bp

pliant topaz
molten citrus
#

i pray we get new hero trees for midnight

#

they're so baad

swift tinsel
#

nah just replace ds

#

trickster is neat

molten citrus
#

trickster has it's faults

swift tinsel
#

or just don't

molten citrus
#

especially for outlaw

bleak wind
swift tinsel
#

ah yeah, they can do whatever they want with outlaw

#

but plz don't take way trickster sub

molten citrus
#

holding coup for dance sounds degen

#

casting bp in st

#

it ALMOST sounds like a fun change

#

but very weird

swift tinsel
#

if BP primed your target for a big evisc maybe

#

like a laser target paint

#

then BOOM

#

or made your rupture tick harder/faster

pliant topaz
#

Idk everything’s about tuning. 20% bp buff and u do it over evis. 10%, and u bp in dance for dm stack

swift tinsel
#

always thought it'd be cool to have primer-detonator interaction between finishers

pliant topaz
#

It’s all whatever, up to the dev team to decide, now are they aware of the consequence of their tuning? Well…

swift tinsel
#

Lol

#

Well, we got a 1.5min agi on-use so I expect zero further changes to anything

#

come Midnight, maybe we get a little more

#

not much hope in either case lol

pliant topaz
tribal blade
#

i think it's highly unlikely rogue, and especially sub see much more major changes going into next tier

#

but i hope to be proven wrong

swift tinsel
#

Oh I have zero expectation of anything for the rest of the xpac, let alone next season

#

idek if I'm gonna play next season at this point, gonna wait until a little closer to release

tribal blade
#

sadly sub numbers might dwindle because of this

#

and then even less attention 🙂

swift tinsel
#

need to nuke like 75% of the talent tree from orbit and start again

swift tinsel
#

Subs just like a funky machine with mismatched gears that are missing teeth, so they grind and clank and don’t work sometimes but with just a bit of actual maintenance it’d run pretty smooth

#

Tried to do a full overhaul but left a bunch of loose bolts and shoved handfuls of random shit inside

tribal blade
#

ok i have a silver lining, the trinket we use next tier is INFINITELY easier than transmitter

swift tinsel
#

That part is stellar lol

tribal blade
#

it does have rng which sucks

swift tinsel
#

No mini games

tribal blade
#

but at least you just press the button

swift tinsel
#

Yeah, and the rng gets less impactful the more you use it

tribal blade
#

yeah exactly

swift tinsel
#

Did a little poking around in gear lists and we’re gonna have so much fucking mastery lol

tribal blade
#

but man it's gonna feel so good unequipping transmitter

#

not a bad thing 😉

swift tinsel
#

Nah I’m cool with it lol

#

Plays well with the tier set

#

Assuming it all works come launch

tribal blade
#

dw sub's dev time will be fixing all the tier set issues

hazy breach
tribal blade
#

sub gets compensation buffs

#

then they finally fix it and sub becomes bonkers

hazy breach
#

Like the shadow damage thing is gonna get fixed

#

But i wouldnt be surprised if it keeps getting removed by shadowed finishers

#

IE rolls the removal twice

#

Also 50/50 whether the shadow amp works on sectech even if they do fix it

tribal blade
#

that is so omega cursed

#

so it's basically a 30% chance per hit?

#

if that's how math works

@hazy breach are you looking forward to people asking if they can macro house of cards to sectec next tier

Why would you macro it to sectech

And not blades

i dunno

although i assumed it would be best to press it right before sectec

-(4) Set: While Shadow Dance is active, you cannot lose Winning Streak!```
Here is an accurate tooltip of what our new tier set does atm ![Surebud](https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/1083827360815665235.webp?size=128 "Surebud")
#

Because the reset is tied to doing damage, not casting. So a BP on 5 targets have 10 rolls (5 hits+5 shadowed hits) with a 15% chance each to remove it

short radish
#

the fuck.

#

does it work the other way around?

hazy breach

Not sure what you mean

You mentioned macroing it to blades, but blades is after Secret Tech. What am I missing?

The vast majority of sectechs damage happens 1 second and 1.3 seconds after pressing it

mortal bane

Ah if that is how it works I see now. I would have thought the subsequent hits of secret tech were snap shotted. But that will work. Thanks.

#

0.X seconds left on second cast when I krangle my activation

#

I hate that the second ones are cast by our "pet" 😦

#

Is there a way to compare (a dumbed down) house of cards with transmitter at our current item level without writing 50 lines of code?

fallow nimbus
#

We are closer to the rupture spam with every day that passes

#

The dps tier set is the worst we ever wittnessed. I don't think blizz can fix that

#

Having the reset on cast instead of dmg instance is RS levels of fixing

hazy breach
#

Like they changed it from 120s cd to 90s cd without lowering the number

#

When you low roll with it you get roughly 10% more stats than the 2 minute trinket from priory/skardyn. And most of the time you'll be getting significantly more since you wont get the lowest possible stat amount

#

So thats obviously completely whack in terms of balance

#

Wait im stupid, i mixed up the slots, hold up ill send a new pic

void hound
hazy breach
#

And im 99% sure the intent is for it to remove all stacks

#

Just not per damage source

void hound
#

is it gonna be worth to pool stacks before dance/burst?

hazy breach
#

Probably

void hound
#

nice, even less apm for deathstalker

hazy breach
#

That shouldnt have any impact on apm

void hound
#

does it proc that often?

hazy breach
#

What

void hound
#

like how often do you get a stack

hazy breach
#

You wont lose any stacks except when you cast evis, bp or sectech

#

10 rppm

void hound
#

so you just raw dog a rupture and overcapp a bit on cp to pool up stacks?

hazy breach
#

Possibly yes

void hound
#

😮‍💨

hazy breach
#

Or you just cast ruptures

void hound
#

thats epic

#

sub not beating the "rupture is more important than on assa" allegations

lilac stag
#

Maybe we need a feedback channel / threads for realz like felhammer has. peepostudy

pliant topaz
#

oh true! that way when we continue to get fucked it feels even worse!

#

im down lets do it

alpine wraith
#

yea getting ignored is some kinky thing

#

but they fixed coup dash at least

hollow spear
#

That's comparing both trinkets at the same ilvl?

pliant topaz
#

my favorite new coup feature is having a 90% chance of dropping tier

hazy breach
#

yes at 639

pliant topaz
#

thats a banger

hazy breach
#

But again

#

Cards is 10000% gonna get nerfed, they forgot to lower the mastery it gives when they lowered the cooldown

pliant topaz
#

eh, they reduced the duration

hollow spear
#

Yeah

#

from 20 to 15

#

so they did nerf it

hazy breach
#

Ye but it ramps quicker

alpine wraith
#

yea that would affect us if we didnt rupture only outside dance!

hollow spear
#

I feel like that "ramp" is kina negligible tbh

alpine wraith
#

well it adds up

hollow spear
#

It's just that Subtlety is an omegaburst class

hazy breach
#

Regardless, it giving significantly more stats than the 2 minute trinket

#

Is clearly not intended

hollow spear
#

Yeah

#

But I guess they didnt want to make it too bad for 2 min classes either

#

at a certain point, it will just be too bad to use it on a 2 min class if you nerf it too hard

#

and I feel like they don't want that to happen either

#

subtlety just has too much burst during its 90 second window

#

hard to get that in line with other 90s classes

That's 639 transmitter v cards, right? Just to check, 'cos I missed the full context

hazy breach
#

Yes 639 both

hollow spear
#

the main stat baseline is kinda meh for sub, so I expected it to be worse than transmitter

lilac stag
keen dome
#

Yeah, makes a lot more sense now

#

I am curious how that amount of mastery + increase of mastery on gear will impact us hitting the DR for mastery though.

hollow spear
#

don't think there's a hard DR

keen dome
#

It's just way less impactful at a certain point, right? 22k or 24k or something.

hazy breach
#

Ye its the same as any other stat

hollow spear
#

it should just gradually decrease

#

no real breakpoint

keen dome
#

Makes sense. I've never fully understood it.

hollow spear
#

it's simple math I think

#

the more you get of sth the less each additional point is worth

#

relatively speaking

keen dome
#

The first time I ever thought about it was in Remix, haha. But now I'm thinking: Oh, we'll have so much mastery during burst. Maybe we stack other stats to balance.

hazy breach
#

Well deathstalker only has 2 stats

#

So not much else to do

keen dome
#

true

#

urgh, deathstalker

hollow spear
#

isn't versatility > mastery on DS even?

hazy breach
#

About the same

hollow spear
#

still feel like vers should be deleted

alpine wraith
#

well we had things like arpen or multistrike

#

but they were deemed extra

#

even if i liked multistrike mechanics

if vers is your top stat

something is wrong with your class

imo

vague oar
#

Idk if this is a bug or an intended mechanic. But does anyone know why the cp refund thingy sometimes takes like half a second or so for the cps to show up?

#

I often end up wasting cps cause I use another builder instead of a finisher

hazy breach
#

It happens if youve specced into replicating shadows

#

If you have 5 shadow technique stacks when you eviscerate, and then you auto attack and proc 7 sht stacks a little bit later (for example 0.7s after the eviscerate) it will refund you

#

Also happens with coup (independantly of replicating or not)

#

And often when dance ends during symbols the refunds stop working (even without rs)

vague oar
hazy breach
#

Its all bugged to shit

#

Is that something that's trackable even, or does it kinda just happen
