void hound
#

note and the reminder feature they ripped off the liquid weakaura

molten citrus
#

saw that more people are using it for timeline reminders now

alpine wraith
#

yea kazemrt

vale pine
#

performance for addons only matters if you have fps issues

#

thats why we rarely care about it

#

and also why addon authors rather add more features than think about performance

alpine wraith
#

it is cool to kinda check those things sometimes like efficiency

molten citrus
alpine wraith
#

it is a wa that calls the note

#

and does things

#

like some fights are so unchanging you get a literal telepromter

#

in your screen

hazy breach
#

Ye its a WA that pulls from the note, and theres some form of CD sheet for healers you can use in excel thats easy to export into the notes

alpine wraith
#

think those are what blizz does not like

molten citrus
#

i have to overhaul my entire UI if i'm going to pve this season ๐Ÿ’€

hazy breach
#

Thats some healer type shit though, im not sure how it works exactly

fringe palm
alpine wraith
#

you can do the same for dps cds

molten citrus
#

i deleted my entire pve set up ages ago

alpine wraith
#

for thigns like adds or who goes where

molten citrus
#

may have been back during the race

hazy breach
#

But ye the timeline addon is really cracked for reminders

#

It shows all the spells the boss is doing, and you press at a certain time and add a reminder that will show up at that time, you can include text to speech too

molten citrus
#

from mRT?

alpine wraith
#

kazemrt

#

it is a wa

hazy breach
#

Idk somebody said they included it in mrt, but there is another addon that does it too. The one liquid used

tepid trellis
#

liquid reminders

hazy breach
#

They renamed it i think

tepid trellis
#

i use it

hazy breach
#

TimelineReminders

#

It seems like it called now

tepid trellis
#

mrt copied right after it was made public by naemesis

hazy breach
#

Ah

#

Ye idk it was nice on kyveza

#

Since i wanted evasion for as much of the intermission as possible but also for the last lines

#

So i had TTS say evasion when it had 10s left

#

So i could focus on dodging and not need to pay attention to the cast Surebud

tepid trellis
#

yeh i did the same

hazy breach
#

Obv there are other ways of doing this

#

But its very simple to setup and edit

alpine wraith
#

yea i just had a personal note

#

with timers

vale pine
hazy breach
#

I think of it kinda like raidbots. Yes you could sim before raidbots was a thing, but the ease and simplicity of it allows you to do it way more often and reduce how long it takes

#

I can easily just add those reminders inbetween wipes

alpine wraith
#

yea it is big

hazy breach
#

Whereas before you would need to put in more effort, more of a in break type thing

alpine wraith
#

might use it now

#

maybe even kinda make a guide

molten citrus
#

so it's a WA that makes WAs for you

vale pine
#

i disslike raid weakauras

molten citrus
vale pine
#

"run out"

#

"jump in 3- 2 - 1"

tepid trellis
vale pine
#

addons take away too much thinking, you basically just play simon says in modern wow

molten citrus
#

or am i just getting mixed up altogether

tepid trellis
#

for the liquid one no

alpine wraith
#

they are separate things

#

kazemrt is one thing for mrt liquidreminders is another

#

then now there is a standalone one

molten citrus
#

but it's an aura import on wago no?

alpine wraith
#

called just timelinereminders

molten citrus
#

ah

grand wyvern
#

the problem with wa e customizable interface is it widens the gap between tryhards and lazy people cause they are basically playing different games, they should get rid of most of it

alpine wraith
#

well it kinda is like F1 they had to ban lots of things because of how the diff between manufacturers have

#

but idk

vale pine
alpine wraith
#

wow has already become a beast of science

vale pine
#

thats the mrt version of it

alpine wraith
#

even if you try to keep cucking addons

#

liming API etc

#

you will still get people doing things

#

it is too late

molten citrus
grand wyvern
#

brood was going to have private auras and tryhards revolted against it

alpine wraith
#

it has privateauras

tepid trellis
grand wyvern
#

for the egg breaks

alpine wraith
#

but not enough

tepid trellis
#

type out what you want it to say, can also show icons

#

and TTS

#

if needed

molten citrus
#

this ye?

hazy breach
#

No

fringe palm
#

private auras dont do what you think they should do in most cases, its good that theyre not as common

hazy breach
#

I think this is their entire pack for nerubar palace, not just the timeline

mint swift
#

What did you say about my private auria?

#

Sorry

#

Shitest joke of the decade

tepid trellis
molten citrus
#

welp

tepid trellis
#

you should just get the MRT one

molten citrus
#

yep

tepid trellis
#

which i think comes with MRT

#

so

#

you probs already have it if you have updated it

alpine wraith
#

yea it is the one eleem posted

grand wyvern
#

wasn't one of the original pillars of wow addons that you can't sell them? look at them now lmao

hazy breach
#

Ye get Method Raid Tools

alpine wraith
#

rules are only rules if they are enforced

alpine wraith
#

also yes loopholes

tepid trellis
#

he isnt actually selling an addon

#

just the import code for it to work

alpine wraith
#

yea nothing stops you from just getting it from someone else

#

now if it had DRM

#

or payd auth

fringe palm
#

its like selling uis for subs etc

grand wyvern
alpine wraith
#

that is anothedr thing

tepid trellis
#

it isnt xD

alpine wraith
#

yep law is rigid

#

it does what it does

#

and outisde of that

#

it does not do anything

#

unless

#

some new rulings come into effect blizz has already changed the terms several times

#

like for multi accounts and boosting

grand wyvern
alpine wraith
#

when there is money involved usually law comes into play

tepid trellis
#

a tos is basically just the law for the use of the game

vale pine
#

thats the beauty of weakauras

tepid trellis
#

and it isnt against ToS to do what he is doing

molten citrus
#

all they can really do is send a cease and desist right

vale pine
#

you essentially can sell addons in weakaura form

#

because you technically don't sell addons

molten citrus
#

if it isn't actually explicitly written in their ToS they wouldn't win anything

alpine wraith
#

it is just not worth for blizz to go after

#

they have bigger problems

grand wyvern
midnight geyser
#

Is sub much different than sub during abberrus

molten citrus
#

how exactly can they prove the author and the blizzard account are the same people

alpine wraith
#

yea sub changed a lot

#

since s2 df

#

but for the better

grand wyvern
molten citrus
#

eh, i'd beg to differ

keen dome
#

They could just arbitarily ban people but that would be bad for business. So why would they? Pointlessly banning people wouldn't work out well.

molten citrus
#

people also just make new accounts

hazy breach
#

@tepid trellis Looking at the mrt timeline stuff, do you need to export it to note for it to work?

keen dome
#

Ye

tepid trellis
#

but for the liquid one it just works

molten citrus
#

banning them won't solve anything about them selling access to their stuff

tepid trellis
grand wyvern
#

I am not saying they should randomnly ban people, I am saying their hands aren't tied at all, it is a conscious choice

molten citrus
#

ye easily

fringe palm
#

the mrt one is literally the liquid one, atleast at the start some of the code even said liquid

molten citrus
#

if they cared

tepid trellis
#

but as it stands now, they arent going against ToS

hazy breach
#

Ye ik the liquid one just works, but i dont think i have access to the updater for it anymore

alpine wraith
#

yea it is the same thing as excel add ins

#

funny how that whole business began

#

after ms refused buying some rights

#

to SAP integrations

#

now you have a plethora

tepid trellis
#

liek the liquid one does?

hazy breach
#

It does

alpine wraith
#

time to change all TTS reminders to izaro quotes

hazy breach
#

But it doesnt work when im fairly sure it should. And it has a big "Export to note" button

grand wyvern
alpine wraith
#

AN EMPEROR STRIKES WITHOUT HESITATION USE FLAG DOG

#

man i think i will have some fun next tier with those

#

time to train AI izaro TTS locally

#

with depseek

fringe palm
alpine wraith
#

just the poe wiki i think

#

same as someone maid a lootfilter with maven moans

fringe palm
#

i want a divine sound everytime my evis steals my new 2pc stacks

alpine wraith
#

cultured people

tepid trellis
alpine wraith
#

you could do an aura with that

#

make it do the unique drop sound

hazy breach
keen dome
#

Can you detect a cause of death via a WA? I.e., fall damage...

#

'Cos wilhelm scream WA idea.....

#

Although attaching that to the Coup charge would be funnier

hazy breach
#

Turns out when you dont have this box checked it doesnt work

#

Who couldve possibly known

vale pine
alpine wraith
#

time to make excel integrations also inside wow

#

export char data calc abilities dmg inside a window with simc and tell you if you can pass some mechanics

vale pine
#

tbh we already have it kinda

#

warcraftlogs

molten citrus
void hound
#

a put a reminder for a quick prayer to not the second charges in p2

molten citrus
#

i haven't raided once this tier

#

not really planning on it either

vale pine
#

no transmitter

molten citrus
#

i'm probably just going to try some basic m+/heroic this season to see if i actually want to get back into mythic

mint swift
#

Beacon from the beyond was cool

#

But like

#

Bacon from the beyond

keen dome
#

Heroic is a lot of fun this season, imo. Everything (except Queen) feels really chill in pugs.

vale pine
#

try to get transmitter if you can

#

it will probably stay rly good

#

even in the next patch

molten citrus
#

where is the new 1.5m from

strange sail
grand wyvern
molten citrus
#

the 1.5m in s2 is also from 3rd to last?

grand wyvern
#

yes one arm bandit i think

molten citrus
#

word

mint swift
#

Pugs are such a mixed bag

#

They can genuinely make something super easy a pain

vale pine
#

so the trinket is rly good for how subtlety lays out its damage

hazy breach
#

Likely better to let other people have the new trinket, even if transmitter gets nerfed

keen dome
# mint swift Bro your just

Yeah. Absolutely. I just did a HKyveza today and it was a nightmare of chaos pug where nobody knew what to do somehow. Normally I run my own but gotten lazy. A good raid lead is all you need to make a good pug.

molten citrus
#

yeah i'm def not trying to step into a mythic raid rn

#

i'm probably quite rusty at pve

#

no guild

#

etc

mint swift
#

RL pinging every egg

#

And giving constant instructions

#

People still fucked up

keen dome
#

Ovi'nax will kill 90% of pugs if the RL isn't patient and concise in explaining stuff, imo.

uneven scarab
#

Take color to matching color guys its not that hard CAUGHT

keen dome
#

You can go "Do not break an egg that isn't marked. Do not cross to another slice." and then a paladin will horsey over to the other side of the room and break an egg

uneven scarab
#

I love when pugs completely ignore the slice youre in

keen dome
#

Same

uneven scarab
#

And decide its time to transition to another one

lilac stag
keen dome
#

I explained to someone how to do it, and they confirmed they understood. Then on the very first egg break (the easiest, since it's the 3 in a triangle by the slug) they ran to the other side of the room and broke a worm egg.

#

I typically just put two markers down on each slice, 3, 4 then the final 4 unmarked and explain it but this is too complex for some pugs

lilac stag
#

I think queen maybe worst pug end boss in some time for heroic

keen dome
#

100%

#

Typically you just rotate through people every single wipe and there's no improvement. It's so frustrating.

#

And it's always just people dying to acid waves, placing the goop wrong, or popping it wrong.

#

I love pugging. But Ansurek sucked.

#

(For pugging, to be clear. I actually really like her as a boss)

vale pine
#

silken court in pugs is fun too

keen dome
#

Haha, yeah

vale pine
#

๐Ÿ™ˆ

keen dome
#

Will the healers dispell?? Will the debuff get to the middle? Who knows! Let's roll the dice.

vale pine
#

damn blizzard

#

enabling gambling like this

uneven scarab
#

Yeah queen i wouldnt even ever bother pugging lol

keen dome
#

I typically pug with a Priest buddy who is utterly insane in how good a raider they are and they carry some fights so hard. They'll yank people to the right egg on ovinax. Solo Court, etc. It's a godsend.

uneven scarab
#

only with a grp

keen dome
#

I think I had 150+ pulls week 1 into week 2 on HAnsurek in pugging. Then I just did a kill in week 2 with a buddies guild and called it a day.

#

My favourite group I joined was this incredibly angry guy who'd been trying to kill her for something like 30 hours straight. Screaming at people, just complete chaos.

uneven scarab
#

jesus

#

Thats just

#

Too much LOL

lilac stag
#

atoc pug players are built diffy

keen dome
#

I did one pull and fucking dipped. It was a mandatory voice one

#

So this thick accented guy just screaming at people while sounding utterly exhausted

#

Just log off my guy, it's not worth it!

lilac stag
#

MOM! I NEED MY CHICKEN TENDIES AND CAPRI-SUN

keen dome
#

I did Sarkareth Week 2, Fyrakk week 1, and then Ansurek week 2. Razageth I did like 5 months into the season 'cos I gave up trying to pug her lmao.

#

Absolute ton of fun doing it in pugs, but it's also very funny.

umbral relic
#

what professions you find being the most usefull for rogue?

#

i'm thinking about alchemy / leather, blacksmith or engineer

hazy breach
#

No profession provide anything but gold savings or ways to make gold nowadays

keen dome
#

Engineering because of the mailbox / vendor / teleports. None of it really matters, though.

umbral relic
grand wyvern
#

gatherer is good if you don't mind gathering while you apply M+

umbral relic
#

meh, i hate making money

fringe palm
#

if you want it all passiv, go alch and enchanting and spec disenchanting

umbral relic
#

this seems sexy

vale pine
#

engineering can be quite good

#

the head is rly solid crafted gear

hazy breach
#

Technically we want to use offset gloves this tier though right

swift tinsel
#

Yeah, from what I've been simming

#

its very minor between gloves and helm

#

not engi helm, a diff one

#

they've been within .5% of each other

#

and the gloves swap every few sims between Enforcer's Sticky Fingers and Tempestwind Handlers

grand wyvern

tepid trellis

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

On the plus side, we're pretty well itemized next season

#

and have solid options for off-pieces and accessories/daggers

#

Looks like neck and boots are the only slots that don't have vers/mastery gear

#

got a heavy vers/mastery and heavy mastery/vers dagger, plus combos of vers/mastery and crit in most slots so we aren't piling on too much of either

uneven scarab
#

As long as theres a neck with big mastery or vers weighting itll be chill

swift tinsel
#

the other two are heavy-haste

uneven scarab
#

Thats not bad

#

not great either but atleast its not haste

swift tinsel
#

yeah, I mean with the setups I've been looking at with full myth we're sitting at 18.5k mastery from gear

#

so we're not exactly hurting

uneven scarab
#

yuge

#

yeah didnt think so

swift tinsel

and that's without gems/enchants

Should probably edit that part about CB huh

Yeah probably

swift tinsel

could always add the "use as 2nd if you're going to macro it" bit

uneven scarab
#

i mean its not the biggest deal right? 0.5%

#

or somethin

swift tinsel

if trinkets are missing from the Top Gear string in tc, can they be added manually or does that mean they haven't been implemented yet

Cooldown Use:
Every 90 seconds you want to cast Flagellation and subsequently Shadow Blades. When these two are up you always want cast 2 Secret Techniques, 2 Shadow Dances and 2 Symbols of Death.
To ensure you have enough cooldown reduction on your Shadow Dance to attain that you need atleast 1 charge and roughly 40 seconds left on your second charge before casting Flagellation.

swift tinsel
#

Ooo that's a good one to have

hazy breach
#

More helpful than stealthis dust sheet for amirdrassil for sure

swift tinsel
#

I wonder if I still have that somewhere lol

keen dome
#

Oh, that's really nice and concise

swift tinsel
#

I have a bookmark of diff rogue resources in chrome with the diff sheets, WAs, etc

shadow lance
#

Do we only press symbols when ST and dance are up?

hazy breach
shadow lance
#

And one symbols without dance after cd?

keen dome
#

Could I make a small suggestion? "2 Secret Techniques, 2 Shadow Dances and 2 Symbols of Death" might work better the other way around. This way it could read that you want to do Sectec -> Dance -> Symbols. Probably not a common way to read it, though.

vestal escarp
#

there's a buried thread somewhere with TC stuff by eleem with more in depth dance cadence tips

hazy breach
#

Sometimes you can do a "naked" symbols without dance, but thats generally for when you know the boss is dying soon and you wont have enough up

hazy breach
hazy breach
#

Ill change it

keen dome
#

๐Ÿซก

vestal escarp
lilac stag
#

i dont think most are going to want to deal cb seperate but who knows

grand wyvern
#

i mean don't you still have the macro cb+st and naked st on another button?

hazy breach
#

The "anchor everything around sectech" thing doesnt really work as well for deathstalker

#

And it put too much emphasis on the empty sectechs, which doesnt really matter much, even for trickster

swift tinsel
#

plus with next tier set you'll look way more at dance than sectech

hazy breach
#

But thats the same as having Dance+Symbols and having them om seperate binds too

shadow lance
lilac stag
#

whoops didnt mean to reply

hazy breach
keen dome
hazy breach
#

1:30-3:00 is almost always one
3:30:4:30 is often 2, if it aint the next one will be

swift tinsel
#

Yar

hazy breach
#

And then it kinda resets, just depends a bit on procs and uptime

swift tinsel
#

bc you can't really afford to send a sod+sectech w/o dance like you can as trickster atm

shadow lance
swift tinsel
#

unless you're sitting at 3x sod then be a boss and supercharge rupture

hazy breach
#

Well if youre practicing on dummies

#

Its gonna be different

#

To playing in raid with skyfury

swift tinsel
#

gotta have a shaman friend you can sit in party with

#

or a 2nd account you used for recruit-a-friend rewards...

hazy breach
#

Playing without a shaman is misery

grand wyvern
swift tinsel
#

it truly is, I was playing a tiny bit of DS the other day on org dummy and it was disparaging

shadow lance
#

I'm practicing on dummy, and I barely can fit 2 dance between cd's without fucking up the cd's window

sick jackal
#

how do i wanna play ovinax trinket as sub?

#

stationary while bursting?

hazy breach
hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

its probably the most feel-able buff besides lust

sick jackal
hazy breach
#

Should be about the same

sick jackal
#

cant sim atm literally in a raid xd

swift tinsel
#

across any spec I've played

sick jackal
swift tinsel
#

alt-tab raidbots homie

shadow lance
#

12% WTF?

hazy breach
#

About half our CP is from shadow techniques

#

And skyfury is 20% more of that

shadow lance
#

Damn'

steel zinc
hazy breach
#

But ye priority one is to perfect the burst window

grand wyvern
hazy breach
#

Trying to squeeze extra dances inbetween is not worth if you lose one during the burst

hazy breach
#

Note that its not 12% more damage, its 12% more cp. Its roughly 8% more damage, but thats including the mastery buff

shadow lance
#

Yes ofc, but I was trying figuring out how to fit a second dance

#

But I see now, if skyfury give that much cd reduction

hazy breach
#

Trickster also gives a bit more cdr

#

If youre trying as deathstalker

shadow lance
#

Yes, was trying in ST

#

wit hDS

steel zinc
# shadow lance Yes, was trying in ST

Just play some 10 keys as sub. Like sub in weekly keys is fine since you have pretty fast burst and things die fast enough that sustained dmg issue won't show up.

shadow lance
#

Or some Pug HC raid

steel zinc
# shadow lance Or some Pug HC raid

Yeah sth like that. I would recommend learning the spec by just learning the dance sequence and then adding flag and blades later on top of that.

Whispyr likes to write novels.

where the 90s trinket drop

swift tinsel
#

One Armed Bandit

#

in raid

#

or do you mean transmitter

clever delta
#

oh

#

yeah i mean the house of cards

swift tinsel
#

ah yeah its from the 5th boss I think

#

5th or 6th

steel zinc
clever delta
#

damn thats another kvyzea anagle

#

angle

swift tinsel
#

yeah,

clever delta
#

so our trinkets are kinda last and 5th boss very cool

lilac stag
#

Get heroic. Buy mythic.

heady sierra
hazy breach
#

Dw if they dont nerf transmitter you wont need house of cards Surebud

clever delta
#

anything good in m+?

#

hahha

swift tinsel
#

Lol even a 626 will last until a 665 house, depending on your 2nd trinket

steel zinc
hazy breach
clever delta
hazy breach
#

Its should be more pronounced with new tier too

steel zinc
swift tinsel
#

azerokk is the only decent m+ trinket, other viable one (drink) is from delves

hazy breach
sly shore
#

so moving cb to 2nd sectech is just always the gain now, right?

hazy breach
#

They fixed it so it cleaves like it should

hazy breach
steel zinc
swift tinsel
#

all of the damage ones split now iirc so they get stinkier

hazy breach
#

Like even if you never use it inbetween your flag window its a gain over macroing

sly shore
swift tinsel
#

static agi + mastery proc

sly shore
hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

most if not all of the other damage trinkets are ~2-2.5% contribution in suboptimal gear in ST

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

and even less in aoe

sly shore
#

could you cb on cd after opener basically

#

with cb in a dance every time

hazy breach
#

But the deal with CB is that either you use it immediately when its ready

#

Or you dont

#

And hold for flag+blades

sly shore
#

makes sense

hazy breach
#

Because every second you delay cb

#

Is a second you need to delay flag

sly shore
#

is delay to flag yuh

alpine wraith
#

yea if you dont CB as the 45 secs are up

#

you need to delay the next one a bit

sly shore
#

might as well just send it on literally anything then

hazy breach
#

Its really really annoying to make the sim use CB like that though so i cant tell you the exact number its worth

sly shore
#

whatever the global is

alpine wraith
#

yea you send it on whatever but you always get a dance there nonetheless

hazy breach
#

But literally never using it outside blades+flag was a +0.5% gain in S1

sly shore
#

we move to 2 dance in cd's one dance between cooldowns always

clever delta
#

did i miss some CB tech? i wasnt really around discord lately only raid logged

alpine wraith
#

so just guesstimate that it is like 0.7 or higher if you actually use the CB in between or more

#

there are some bosses like queen when you delay cds a bit so it also lines up anyway

alpine wraith

but even then no reason to macro

hazy breach

Like even when you can double dance you can time it

hazy breach
#

Idk do we just skip all the optimizations recommendations then?

#

Like just macro everything

#

Skip the premed or supercharge sectech stuff

alpine wraith
#

ideally you just tell both things

#

then they choose

#

what i usually do

steel zinc
keen dome
#

Can't you have both suggestions? Where it's a viable option but you can also just optimize this thing for a bit more damage. Like, if you do everything else right it's a small increase here you can also do, but it isn't make/break?

alpine wraith
#

you can always try to make it simple but gamers always seek the cool things

hazy breach
#

Ye thats whats on the "easy to play" options are for

alpine wraith
#

it is on their DNA

#

like doing the new ninja gaiden on master ninja

clever delta
#

how you go about it tho

alpine wraith
#

without using the drop tech

#

I DID IT MOM

#

even if no one cares

clever delta
#

putting cb on different bind or having non cb sectech bind

alpine wraith
#

just 2 binds yea

swift tinsel
#

Can have them separate or have a macro + naked sectech bind

#

2 binds either way

alpine wraith
#

well you dont really use a macro in that situation

#

so yea 2 either way

clever delta
#

man if i use my cb manually i will forget use cb most of time ๐Ÿ˜„

alpine wraith
#

yea that can happen

vestal escarp
#

Im gonna be honest I dont have a bind for CB standalone

keen dome
#

Same

swift tinsel
#

I have a green border on my sectech WA that shows when CB is ready

#

it helps

alpine wraith
#

you would only need a bind for sec tech standalone

clever delta
#

yeah that make sense

alpine wraith
#

if you already have on in your brain

vestal escarp
#

it's the same thing

alpine wraith
#

and just remember first sec tech of cds this one

swift tinsel
#

Border colors or glows are a very handy cue

alpine wraith
#

yea but people's brains take time

vestal escarp

Like the guides already have sections with simplified rotations, i feel like those should be the goto pages for those types of players. Rather than having a bot command be a lot longer and cover up more of the chat so that it can have an explanation of why we recommend something that we dont actually think is the best

#

Since you need a regular in this chat to even trigger the message typically

swift tinsel
#

I think the bot command makes sense for the 5%

I do personally think having easier stuff and more minmax stuff together is good, espescially if you give people a full picture of what you are dropping (or a rough estimate), and why the minmax is better. It lets people make those strong informed decisions. Like me finally swapping off my dance macro.

swift tinsel
#

maybe a wee bit more

clever delta
#

can someone explain me this delay cb tech

#

when i use cb with second sectech

alpine wraith
#

second sec tech hits harder

#

so you want that one to crit

uneven scarab
#

Literally all u do is use it on second sectech in cdโ€™s

clever delta
#

my second CB will be in next cds?

vestal escarp
#

you cb the second sextech during flag cause as trickster it usually hits harder

swift tinsel
#

fun so far

#

just contributions from gear/gems/enchants

#

at 678

alpine wraith
#

second cb ideally is in between cds

#

but if you mess up you need to delay flag

uneven scarab
#

just crit

#

No need to delay suskaygeagreegebusiness

swift tinsel
#

I think that equates to like 90% mastery with base %

clever delta
#

so i delay dance for my second CB when ready

vestal escarp
#

like if they fixedthe cb bug you could cb somethign random and not loose some value

uneven scarab
vestal escarp
#

but no get backstab fixed

uneven scarab
#

u dont delay anything

clever delta
#

i just hitted dummy and my second CB was ready for another set of cds

uneven scarab
#

u just use cb on ur second sec tech in opener

#

ya u can still use it inbetween

uneven scarab
#

just gotta make sure you have it for cdโ€™s

clever delta
#

do you press some finisher between dances in cds so you get second sectech supercharged?

vestal escarp
#

time timings for that are also very hard cause you have to go into flag semi-blind knwoing cb will be up for the second sectech

#

you dance back to back and time sod to get sectech supercharged

#

usually on second

tepid trellis
#

you just hold your 2nd symbols for the sectech

swift tinsel
#

yeah I made that mistake for a while lol

tepid trellis
#

to super charge it

clever delta
#

oh yeah

#

holding smybols make sense

swift tinsel
#

with inev its usually like 14-15sec duration

#

for the first one

#

so you can pandemic it pretty easily

lilac stag

I wonder how many people know sod prepull tech

swift tinsel

shhh

i got in the habit of doing it around the time we stopped raiding

Just sending one after rez

I think outlaw has an entire book of a bot comman for prepull

real yew
#

is sub still bugged to hell

swift tinsel
#

11.1 fixes a lot of bugs

real yew
#

are people actually testing sub now?

swift tinsel
#

we typically do

real yew
#

early word was it was too buggy to test thats why i asked

granite river
#

Nah test it

#

Itโ€™s fun and do dam

swift tinsel
#

Early on in this ptr cycle certain parts of the spec and tier set were still bugged so depending on what you were looking into it was definitely too buggy for some things

#

afaik the only outstanding bugs for the tier set are: 2pc doesn't buff shadowed finishers portion of evisc/bp

#

and some people have permanent stacks

real yew
#

was just looking for some basic dmg #s and tier increases for guild tier prio

#

gotcha, well thanks

swift tinsel
#

ah, its hard to work out exact % bc its not working entirely as intended

#

and not fully implemented in sims atm

#

but if it goes live working as intended our tier set is very impactful on our burst windows

alpine wraith
#

tea is a bit weaker than cb right now

#

so not likely to change

#

as for tier sub one seems quite strong

#

at least a 15%+ increase

#

from initial things

#

before even playing around it etc

dire jolt
#

People are already saying "Don't nerf our spec, we're weaker than sub on ptr."

alpine wraith
#

nice to know

dire jolt
#

its nice that Outlaw and Sub like the same embellishment.

hazy breach
#

Next tier you can pretty much just skip an embellishment

dire jolt
#

sucks they aren't letting them scale

#

They should empower the raid buff like other consumables.

hazy breach
#

Idk some of them scale minorly, so guess we swap to those

#

Just really strange and clearly underdeveloped shrugeg

dire jolt
#

people didn't enjoy swapping Embellishments last expansion I think.

swift tinsel
#

embellish/crafted sim finishes in ~20mins, doubt they'll show up lol

alpine wraith
#

ascension will likely what i play as you can get that one on wep

vale pine
#

embellishments are good enough to play

alpine wraith
#

then no need to upgrade the other one yet

vale pine
#

but they are like eleem layed out fairly minor in impact

alpine wraith
#

that is the thing about the 1 effect then the doubler

fathom adder
#

so we finally craft the effect-dagger

#

yey

dire jolt
#

letting Embellishments scale with the ilvl of the crafted gear would be the easiest thing ever I'd think.

vale pine
#

!bugs

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

okay, fixed the spacing ^^

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

yea it is silly how bfa embellish are stronger

#

than ones now

vale pine
#

embellishment are absically

alpine wraith
#

likely i just craft weapon

vale pine
#

early power spikes

alpine wraith
#

then upgrade myth gear yea

vale pine
#

can get a secure high-ish item level

#

think its fine if crafted gear is like that

#

a bit boring, but fine

alpine wraith
#

my patch spot is boots so unlikely i get M ones as they drop further

#

the good thing about crafted gear is they reduced the cost too

#

so it is not a super int anymore at least

swift tinsel
#

isn't it like 60 gilded now

#

or 45

keen dome
#

60

#

45 is heroic iirc

swift tinsel
#

ah yeah that's right

keen dome
#

So they're good pieces for deterministic one-step-off-iLevel cap items.

#

But the embellishments themselves seem very whatever now. Which, probably, good.

vale pine
#

makes it hard to pick the wrong one

#

just focusing lense

swift tinsel
#

Yeah, probably gonna rush a wep since I won't see mythic for months unless I can get the rookery one in vault

keen dome
#

I still use Ascendance 'cos I had it for Assa during the dark 11.0.1 -> 11.0.5 times.

swift tinsel
#

Nice thing is if Rix drops it I get it lol

keen dome
#

And I probably won't swap off it in S2 'cos it's on my OH dagger + bracers

swift tinsel
#

meanwhile I still have no crafted pieces

alpine wraith
#

M wep is safe craft yea

#

big ascension

swift tinsel
#

since I switched the last month of raiding lol

#

I didn't even sim crafted daggers

#

gotta add that to the list

#

have them running in the background while databasing lol

keen dome
#

I think a 639 is a marginal increase for me in OH but when I did my big simming, I am basically done on gear.

#

636 or 639 in every slot sans transmitter. The only meaningful boost is 639 Versa/Mast boots via cata and that's like, 3k. So whatever.

swift tinsel
#

I still have a 626 crit/mastery oh but I cba to replace it atm

keen dome
#

Ye

swift tinsel
#

had that from my first rogue vault and only replaced it with a myth kukri

keen dome
#

No real rush since OH is whatever

swift tinsel
#

Yeah, I'm not too terribly worried about it

#

I typically cap out at hero track 6/6 each season since I don't run a ton of keys, let alone any 10+

#

thinking about going for full myth this season tho

keen dome
#

It's a fun challenge but be ready to go mad chasing vault drops

alpine wraith
#

doing weekly 10s can be chill

swift tinsel
#

kinda sucks most of our well-itemized pieces come from raid and I won't see any bosses past 4

alpine wraith
#

unless you get the batch of degens

keen dome
#

I just need boots and getting them is impossible and I don't care enough for 3k DPS increase (something like 0.2% or something)

swift tinsel
#

we have a pretty great group of consistent +10 runners in our guild which is great

#

no super sweatlords

#

only 1 or 2 go for 3k, most hit 2.6-2.8 and kinda chill there

#

think I ended at 2.1k

keen dome
#

Nice work

#

I think I'm just shy of 2.6k but effort getting the final two 10's timed when I don't careeeee.

swift tinsel
#

thanks! rogue is the first toon I ever got ksm on in SL

alpine wraith
#

i dont even have all 10s timed i think

#

but have some 12s

#

on others

swift tinsel
#

I have a 10 NW and Mists and a few 8's

alpine wraith
#

after i got almost all gear from m+ my willingness craters

swift tinsel
#

but I pug a lot and it was a chore this season

alpine wraith
#

didnt help some good games came out

keen dome
#

Ye, I did all of mine via pugging

alpine wraith
#

same i just spam nw mists and dawnbreaker

swift tinsel
#

the 2 10's were with guildmates and I think I'm gonna try for all portals this season

alpine wraith
#

farmed some grim batols for skardyn

swift tinsel
#

the last big targeted farm I did was for branch

keen dome
#

Hell yeah, you can do it Haptics

swift tinsel
#

was like 40+

keen dome
#

I try to get 2.5k as a minimum. Have done every seasons ince I came back in DF

#

My best was almost 3.1k in uh.. S3? Which was fun.

swift tinsel
#

I didn't start running m+ until I think s2 SL when I did a handful as ret

#

then s3 got ksm

keen dome
#

Nice

swift tinsel
#

can't remember if I got it all seasons in df, that was an iffy xpac for me bc of a lot of rl stuff

tight bison
#

are we still bugged in PTR? XD

alpine wraith
#

they fixed a lot of them

#

only annoying ones left is mark bug and shadowed finishers not working with either DN or tier set

tight bison
#

do we have any sims for 11.1? for talents and trinks?

alpine wraith
#

some things are not implemented fully

#

so not yet

still crystal
#

Anyone know somewhere i can find a credible 7.3.5 legion sub rogue guide lmao (highly doubt)

alpine wraith
#

for sub you play MA and fist of the dead

#

or depending you can also use denial but i think by that time denial was already nerfed

worthy relic
#

fuu had a spreadsheet back in the day for a guide

alpine wraith
#

yea i also made some but i didnt use yt back then so they are lost to time i think

swift tinsel
#

dawnthread gloves/boots is looking okayish if you're not crafting a wep+banding

alpine wraith
#

depends wep still likely first craft

swift tinsel
#

yeah

alpine wraith
#

just because of how it works

swift tinsel
#

this would be once you've got 2x 678 weps

#

even then they're barely better than just regular raid/m+ gear

#

but people are into that

#

crafted amulet viable too

need to dig in more but sims are taking a hot minute

gonna make a few profiles and mess around, took a second to modify the simc input with all the new gear

ah nice

#

i created the profile yesterday

swift tinsel
#

how to you determine the secondaries on crafted gear in simc?

vale pine
#

today was some simc fix

swift tinsel
#

or embellishments

alpine wraith
#

they have ids for themselves

vale pine
#

so possible gear is not optimized for it

swift tinsel
#

yeah, it was updated between some of the sims I had run between yeterday and today too

vale pine
#

^^

swift tinsel
#

Yeah I have that pulled up in notepad atm but I don't know which ID is which stat

#

or stat combo

#

same with embellishments

alpine wraith
#

for ex

vale pine
#

i am surprised the ring is in for you

alpine wraith
#

idk if the stats things is the same

swift tinsel
#

rings I simmed a few times

vale pine
#

well again, probably because of

alpine wraith
#

but usually it remains kinda similar

swift tinsel
#

jastor is always in

alpine wraith
#

that one was the one i kinda curated for s3

vale pine
#

the simc fix, which massively increased dps

alpine wraith
#

the gamba ring?

vale pine
#

no

#

the siren isle one

swift tinsel
#

yeah my sims jumped like 300k when it was updated recently

vale pine
#

ye

alpine wraith
#

yea gamba ring is big

#

after the fix

vale pine
#

i just re-run the profile, so haven't looked if the simc update made talent or item changes worth

alpine wraith
#

it is funny how it works with hour cds

vale pine
#

so not optimized for the burstier profile

alpine wraith
#

sometimes you can get lucky and not reset

#

but if sometimesd you can get an unlucky reset just before cds

#

as if we were not enough gamba

#

it is always a rdps increase anyway

swift tinsel
#

I'm gonna keep plugging in diff crafted gear and see if I can beat that combo I posted

#

will report back if anything interesting pops up
