mine always lumps it as one

hazy breach
#

Its got perma 10 stacks of the 2p, yet most of the hits are 2.4 and not 4M which they should be

wide shale
#

gloomblade? will we be using gloom in 11.1?

hazy breach
#

I suggest you read my message again

#

Its literally only testing sectech

#

might be more helpful

swift tinsel
#

Big thanks!

#

I'll try looking at the log link too and see if there's any pattern to the ones that are diff

swift tinsel
#

almost 60% of them are half the value

hazy breach
#

Yes

#

And from what i call tell theres literally no pattern at all.

swift tinsel
#

Same

#

its frustrating

hazy breach
#

So my guess would be that the clones somehow roll the chance to remove the buff on themselves

#

But still benefit from the 2p on the player

swift tinsel
#

it would make sense and explain the disparity in that one test

hazy breach
#

But i have no idea.

#

Just another major bug with the clones

#

Because the spell is terrible designed so it bugs with everything

rustic raven

#

So sub is supposed to do way more damage than it already does

hazy breach
#

No for the most part

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

haven't had the split clone dmg but mine are following a similar pattern of doing 1.5 dam instead of the 2.X

hazy breach
brisk onyx
#

Is there a simpler conclusion to the above discussion? Sorry, I can't understand a little bit

hazy breach
#

Sometimes 4p doesnt work on sectech

#

Unsure why or when

brisk onyx
swift tinsel
#

I've had one out of seven do the right damage so far lol

#

some of the shadow hits are doing like 1.2x the phys with 10 stacks

lilac stag
hazy breach
#

Yeeeeep

swift tinsel
#

love it

#

stellar

lilac stag
#

In their case it was rng dbl dipping

swift tinsel
#

I'm trying to think of a diff or better way to look into it

lilac stag
#

I’m trying to remember, What was the initial issue clones had when realz first took over. Possible it somehow reverted to that?

swift tinsel
#

they weren't attributed to our damage in logs

#

or something along those lines

lilac stag
#

No it was more than logs

hazy breach
#

They never fixed that

swift tinsel
#

I thought it did that even if you were in range

hazy breach
#

Ye

#

A while being like 2½ month

swift tinsel
#

lol

#

in the scheme of bugs for sub that's a blink of an eye

lilac stag
#

That’s like 1 day in other class bugs.

swift tinsel
#

cough cough mages

#

been doing more cb+sectechs and its hovering around 30% doing correct-ish damage

left ledge
#

glad to see we're going into season 2 just as polished as we did going into season 1

swift tinsel

#

lol back to back

#

so fucking scuffed

#

if I got 3 in a row I was gonna fly to Irvine and bang on some doors

10% of them are like that so far

hey guys why do we first eviscrate after pull before going into cds?

swift tinsel
#

slice and dice

#

via cut to the chase, makes evisc grant snd duration per cp spent

#

also putting this here from the first 100 sod+dance cb+sectech plus 7 split clone attacks after Eleem noticed it being weird, will look into it more tomorrow

molten citrus

why do you keep randomly pinging them

so.. you're just harassing them?

they fixed constant 10 stacks bug in ptr

is it c tier spec now xd

molten citrus

nah

Always was c tier. That’s why only 13 of us play it on live.

#

There are times when I have sectec and shadow dance up but like 5-10 seconds on cold blooded. Do you guys think it’s better to wait for it to come off cd or just send and get sectec back on cd?

fallow nimbus
#

If the cb after that perfectly falls into cds then wait a bit

#

You want sectec on cd but you also want to plan for every cd window

#

So sometimes you don't instantly want to sectec

#

As DS you can't even because then you rip your cd windows

bitter igloo
#

@olive pike i heard you were a good sub 😊

molten citrus
vale pine
#

agree, combat also had a nicer ring to it

round latch
#

dw,they will fix it

steel zinc
vale pine
#

if you made a in game report, thats perfect

steel zinc
#

From the tierset

vale pine
#

it seems like something is not working correct

alpine wraith
#

yea tier set is unreliable with sec tech

#

no idea why

#

sometimes it does

#

sometimes it does not

steel zinc
#

Yeah the clones seem to remove the stacks

#

So like a ticking dot removing it

#

I highly doubt this will get fixed

fallow nimbus
#

Another case of why multiple hits skills are bad and should be caster channel exclusive

hexed dagger
#

anyone know why my sims arent working atm?

alpine wraith
#

check you dont have an outdated apl

vale pine
#

^ delete "custom apl" if you have any

alpine wraith
#

if you dont know where it is it is in the lower part

#

check this part is blank or has an up to date apl

vestal escarp
#

What was in the datamined stuff?

hexed dagger
#

I just installed a new version of the simcraft addon though while troubleshooting and even though wowup has it installed it's not in my addons folder for some reason

molten citrus
tribal blade
#

we're bugged again?

#

i shouldn't be surprised

#

but i am very disappointed

vale pine
tribal blade
#

and i should rephrase, i WILL be very disappointed if they don't bug fix it quickly

vale pine
#

mostly matters for raid

tribal blade
#

i've been coaching one of my raid team's warrs on sub because he wants to play an alt rogue and heard sub is busted

alpine wraith
#

does it actually reset stacks or just does not work randomly

#

havent checked

keen dome
#

What's this new bug?

tribal blade
#

tier set not buffing sectec randomly it seems

#

not sure if it's the 2pc or 4pc buff

alpine wraith
#

ah eleem had a good hypothesis

#

the clones have a way to roll the reset themselves

keen dome
#

lol, it's absolutely that

#

Or it's just not properly apply to them as they're 'pet' summons?

alpine wraith
#

so that is why maybe 1 hit works and the other does not

tribal blade
#

man they really need to just redo sectec as a spell

#

completely

#

and code it as not pet damage

#

i'm not sure if this is my simpleton thought process, but it seems to make sense to me that they just rework things causing problems

keen dome
#

One big hit! One big hit! One big hit!

alpine wraith
#

make sec tech 1 big hit delete shadowed

#

suddenly

tribal blade
#

like sectec clones and shadowed finishers

alpine wraith
#

15 bugs go away

tribal blade
#

instead of just working on the problems that come up EVERY SINGLE TIME with them

keen dome
#

Make Coup and Sec one big hit plz

alpine wraith
#

hope they learned from nightstalker

keen dome
#

I require the crit feeling

alpine wraith
#

and sepsis/er

tribal blade
alpine wraith
#

just kill

vale pine
tribal blade
#

yeah just kill them

alpine wraith
#

i mean they did the same with shadowy and prep

#

lots of bugs

#

just delet

vale pine
#

i talked about it the other day, but e.g. they split evis up in multiple parts

tribal blade
alpine wraith
#

for no reason

vale pine
#

so before find weakness

#

you had evis just do a lot of damage with evis rank 2

alpine wraith
#

it is like me getting weird routing through the congo

vale pine
#

which just modified evis damage

alpine wraith
#

for no reason

#

and i have to fix it

vale pine
#

now you have find weakness

#

so you need to check if find weakness is applied

#

then you have the shadow part attacks too

alpine wraith
#

before it was easier you had FW you did more phys dmg

#

evis trucked baseline

vale pine
#

which you need to white/blacklist

#

and you can just add more stuff to the list

#

secret is a 3 part attack with parts as pet attack

#

...

tribal blade
#

yeah it's all a mess lol

molten citrus
#

are the sims in the sheet all without bugs?

vale pine
#

kind of

#

the sims are how it is supposed to work

#

but also if there are new bugs

#

might be invalid again

alpine wraith
#

the sec tech one is kinda silly

#

will check in the afternoon

mighty citrus
#

what was the name of our new 1.5m trinket again?

alpine wraith
#

but i think they wanted to add sec tech into the tier set reset

molten citrus
#

house of cards

mighty citrus
#

tyty

molten citrus
#

is the trinket

keen dome
#

so fast

alpine wraith
#

but forgot to trigger

molten citrus
alpine wraith
#

and document and send it

molten citrus
#

i assumed they were done without that bug

alpine wraith
#

yea that bug was never in sims

molten citrus
#

kk

#

have seen a couple people refer to sub as being "dead" since the perma stacks were fixed

#

and it seems very much not the case, just going off what we know thus far

molten citrus
#

yep

#

wow community does not handle ptr cycles very eloquently

leaden prairie
#

@vale pine why do you have that in your sims

#

i dont remmeber a bp tuning

vale pine
#

hmm

#

moment, ill check

leaden prairie
#

you are nerfing it btw with that override

#

but ye

#

mgiht be an old thing you forgot

vale pine
#

ye likely

sly shore
#

is sub dead now the stacks are fixed plz answer @molten citrus

molten citrus
gleaming imp
#

omega dead spec

leaden prairie
#

wait guys i just heard sub was dead

#

true or ??

molten citrus
#

John Blizzard told me that he did not want KPB touching sub ever again

gleaming imp
#

it's Joever Sadge

sly shore
#

nice

fringe palm
#

Can you tell your dad to work a bit more Madge

sly shore
#

He left before I was born, unfortunately

leaden prairie
#

Guys

#

I think I want a sub tier in m+

#

Can we get a sub tier in m+

#

I'm tired of assa

#

Someone get me out

alpine wraith
#

sub is quite strong because you enter most packs with good stacks of tier

molten citrus
#

i want the same NODDERS

brisk onyx
gleaming imp
#

sub season sounds fun

#

until they uncap outlaw

vestal escarp
gleaming imp
#

surely Copege

vestal escarp
#

Try playing it on live in high keys

#

And tell us your feedback

alpine wraith
#

it is quite fine but others do better

#

happens to a lot of specs really

vestal escarp
gleaming imp
#

i'd assume sub is also doing just fine in sub 10 keys no?

alpine wraith
#

that depends on the player mostly

#

i have seen things

gleaming imp
#

i mean, as a smooth brain Outlaw player, it can't be worse KEK

alpine wraith
#

if you mess up cds as sub

#

you do less than tank

#

not a joke btw

gleaming imp
#

ah so just like arcane i guess

leaden prairie
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
alpine wraith
#

kinda yea

leaden prairie
#

It's similar to outlaw kekw

#

It's probably better maybe but

vestal escarp
#

So doodoo?

leaden prairie
#

You are like

vestal escarp
#

I would never

gleaming imp
#

it's ok, i mained arcane during last tier of DF, can't be more suicidal than that KEK

leaden prairie
#

Kinda shit

gleaming imp
#

worst case, i'll go back to being a benched Feral

alpine wraith
#

sub is not hard at all

keen dome
#

It's always sub season if you are bad at the game as me. That's the secret.

alpine wraith
#

just punishing if you make mistakes

gleaming imp
#

but aren't most rogue specs sorta like that?

vestal escarp
#

No they vary in that regard

#

All three have different punish outcomes

alpine wraith
#

as outlaw you can make a lot more mistakes but each of them can be lower in impact

gleaming imp
#

i can see Outlaw be somewhat more forgiving

vestal escarp
#

On the single instance mistake yes

remote shuttle
#

Well sub in live is fun atm, touched a 12M dps peak on NW 1st pack, ended pack at 6M

#

was a NW 12 iirc

vestal escarp
#

Wake could very well be best key for sub this rotation

leaden prairie
#

But also similarly

vestal escarp
#

Routing cant be varied much and packs align well with flag

leaden prairie
#

While fucking up certain things as sub can be very bad

#

If you fuck them up you are a giga noob

#

Like ye sending a sec tech at 1 cp is bad

gleaming imp
#

am noob tho

#

no change there

molten citrus
#

the thing i think some people struggle with for sub is proper CD alignment/usage

vestal escarp
#

Ofc

leaden prairie
#

I think that's fine when you prog a fight

vestal escarp
#

Tc provides rules for that in a vacuum

leaden prairie
#

It's hard if you just go on to a boss randomly tho

#

Like on reclears first timing sub

#

Is a bit rough

keen dome
vestal escarp
#

Yes

vestal escarp
leaden prairie
molten citrus
keen dome
#

He was doing everything else right but just no shadow dance. It was very strange.

gleaming imp
#

I'm guessing sub still macro CB into secret tech no?, i'm guessing we don't send shadow blades without Flag??

vestal escarp
#

No macros

keen dome
#

There's an optimisation you can do to send CB on the second SecTec of your bust. Since it's more damage.

vestal escarp
#

Wait a sec

#

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

Subtlety Macros:
It is not recommended to macro most cooldowns, including Cold Blood+Secret Techniques and Dance+Symbols.
The following macros are an exception:

/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Thistle Tea```
```yaml
/cast Shadow Blades
/cast Blood Fury
/cast Ancestral Call
/use House of Cards```
When using diffrent macros, make sure to keep the cooldowns on a seperate key.
vestal escarp
#

Yeah no macros

keen dome
#

You can use the CB+SecTec though as I believe it's only a small increase that might make learning the spec more complex but. Ye, no macros

gleaming imp
#

ah, just wondering since wowhead had a few recommendations but looking into the rotation it didn't really click for me to have it

#

i don't think i've touched sub since it was busted in keys LUL

vestal escarp
#

Wowhead might recommend cb + sectech but as en easier entrypoint

gleaming imp
#

aye make sense

#

prob. better to no macro while i shake off the rust

leaden prairie
# vestal escarp No macros

i mean look, sub has very little buttons, i think its fine to macro some spells if you also have the standalone button aswell, I have cb st so i dont have to ever worry about pressing these 2 buttons at the same tmie, but i also have a standalone sec tech so i can do the cb second st mnimax

vestal escarp
#

Very little buttons is an overstatement but sure thats the point

keen dome
#

Ye, end of the day it's about making sure you can play it comfortably, and you don't need to minmax everything day 1 if you don't want too

leaden prairie
worn cape
#

so we will macro House of Cards to Shadowblades? Good to know. garf_sit

leaden prairie
#

Not sure why

keen dome
#

Playing it well even with Macro's is good damage. And then you can take it further once you are comfortable.

leaden prairie
#

But I do

keen dome
#

Huh yeah I guess KIR would have more buttons

leaden prairie
#

I think pressing 10 diff button off GCD at the same time

#

Is just not realistic

vestal escarp
#

I have my own set of binding, when i played kir in amirdrassil i could bind everything for OL

molten citrus
#

on otl

vestal escarp
#

In tww sub im out of binds because some macros have fallen apart

#

And that iteration of kir had shadowdance

#

If i were to swap to ol now i would have some free space

leaden prairie
#

So like br and ks for example

#

Otherwise it's hard to get used to changing builds

tepid trellis
#

mfw: me looking at my keybinds for sub and having 3 shadowstep ones

leaden prairie
#

Ye

tepid trellis
keen dome
#

Are those for Ansurek?

leaden prairie
#

I do indeed was able to remove all my steps

tepid trellis
#

1 of them is

leaden prairie
#

That's. True

tepid trellis
#

or well i have it all the time

#

right now its just set to our mage

leaden prairie
#

instead i added @ player grapple tho !

#

opop

tepid trellis
#

usually had it set to our BDK

vestal escarp
#

One is all you need git gud smug

tepid trellis
#

but i have 1 target/mouseover 1 focus and 1 @ player step

leaden prairie
#

i have target, mouseover, and focus

#

what is @ player

tepid trellis
#

specific person

leaden prairie
tepid trellis
#

used that since raszageth

#

for our DK

vestal escarp
tepid trellis
#

we didn't have a blood dk for prog

#

so i had to come up with something

keen dome
#

I just have one for mouseover coup_de_grace

vestal escarp
#

You can step a dractyr for ansurek they always cheese the wrest

tepid trellis
#

so does DKs

#

they just press DA

#

and ignore it

keen dome
#

Warriros can leap it too, I think? but that could end up funny.

tepid trellis
#

DK is the most BS class in this game

#

they can just ignore all of fucing mechanics

vestal escarp
#

Rog too with step bullshit

tepid trellis
#

well rogue most of the time uses other people

#

to ignore it

gleaming imp
#

Do we still play around Danse Macabre like back in Nathria? for juicy last stack finisher?

tepid trellis
#

nathria?

keen dome
#

Nope

gleaming imp
#

or is it just to have it running from BP and shuriken?

vestal escarp
#

Dont play around danse ever

#

Normal rotation is enough

gleaming imp
#

thank god

keen dome
#

Don't even need to track it.

tepid trellis
#

we have never really played around it

gleaming imp
#

i might be thinking of something else then hmm

tepid trellis
#

only reason we used to backstab was because it did a decent amount of dmg with gloomblade and we had CPS from TFD

#

back in the first two seasons of Dragonflight

#

with Vault and Arberrus

gleaming imp
#

might be that i'm thinking of

#

by the looks of it, sub seems a lot more simple compared to what i remember it to be

vestal escarp
#

Depends on the level

keen dome
#

It's lost some of it's weird complexity (I.e, Dust) but it's got a lot of quirks that can be strange to play around.

vestal escarp
#

Minmaxing rotation to play around both hero talents specifics has been bad as of lately

tepid trellis
pearl vine
#

what are those quirks

tepid trellis
#

Easier than late Dragonflight

leaden prairie
#

why you talking in sub channel

gleaming imp
#

the hard part seems to be looking at the different conditions, specially in multi target

pearl vine
#

just lookin'

leaden prairie
#

zeross clone in sub channel

#

!

pearl vine
#

sir do not arrest

vestal escarp
#

Zeross?

keen dome
# pearl vine what are those quirks

SecTec CDR + Coup, Symbols + SoD timings for maximum effectiveness, knowing when to hold Dance+SoD between burst so you have enough for the next one, etc.

void hound
#

any new hidden bugfixes?

tepid trellis
#

if you mean if they broke something

#

then yeh maybe

vestal escarp
#

Oh

tepid trellis
#

lil bird told me that sectech sometimes doesent work with the tier

molten citrus
#

just sec tech clones not gaining dmg from 4pc most of the time

#

ye

tepid trellis
#
  • clones may or may not yoink stacks
vestal escarp
#

Even in dance?

#

Lmao

tepid trellis
#

so not great

molten citrus
#

ya

#

pretty bad

molten citrus
#

i think they were still trying to pin point what was causing it

#

because sometimes it would work, but most of the time it wouldn't

pearl vine
#

oh

#

symbols nvm

#

lmao

tepid trellis
#

Symbols of death

keen dome
#

Yeah, Symbols haha

void hound
#

thats fine, they still have time, not like they would ship a major patch like that haha copium

pearl vine
#

w8 what does it mean symbols+symbols of death

#

or am i restarted

tepid trellis
#

just symbols of death

keen dome
#

No I meant to type Symbols + SecTec, that's my mistake

tepid trellis
#

symbols usage gets a bit more complicated

pearl vine
#

i mean u kinda wanna save 2 dances for cds

#

and then u have one symbols+sectec dry

#

outside dance

#

or no?

tepid trellis
#

sometimes

#

yes

void hound
tepid trellis
#

sometimes no

#

xD

pearl vine
#

idk if you wanna kinda save symbols but spec now looked fairly ez when i went onto dummies

#

(didnt play it since fyrakk)

tepid trellis
#

its easier than fyrakk sub

dry plank
#

it depends on fight and timings xD

keen dome
void hound
#

i think its harder than fyrakk sub

tepid trellis
#

comes down to how much cdr you generate

keen dome
#

And there's variance in what you'll generate as Trickster due to Coup, which makes it a little more frustrating to predict sometimes.

pearl vine
#

ok i guess you wanna save coups for dances yes?

tepid trellis
#

not really

keen dome
#

What was the command for Eleem's new thing..

#

!burst

pearl vine
#

haha okay i mean i dont wanna bore yall

keen dome
#

no..

pearl vine
#

is there any comprehensive fa

void hound
#

you can save it if its like one finisher away (use bp), otherwise just send

pearl vine
#

faq i went over wowhead one didnt find that much details

keen dome
#

!cds

wicked joltBOT
#

Cooldown Use:
Every 90 seconds you want to cast Flagellation and subsequently Shadow Blades. When these two are up you always want cast 2 Symbols of Death, 2 Shadow Dances and 2 Secret Techniques.
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.

keen dome
#

This might help clarify it concisely

pearl vine
#

i mean yeah you get the feel when u can send and get dance back

#

idk man like feel stuff aint that hard but unintuitive stuff like dust was hell for me

tepid trellis
keen dome
#

I don't think Sub is hard, but I do think it is confusing and like i said, has it's quirks. Once you learn them, and learn why we do stuff. It's just practice and the fights. Lotta room for improvement and optimisation too.

jolly pasture
#

Do we have ds vs trickster sims for 11.1 anywhere?

tepid trellis
#

no

pearl vine
#

yeye i mean but the philosophy is simillar

#

crank as much sectecs into cds u can

keen dome
#

Well, two

pearl vine
#

then send dance+symbols+sectec kinda

#

then see if in the fight u have

#

for sure downtime where u could send

#

symbols and sectec alone

#

etc

keen dome
#

Two dances+SoD+Secs in burst. Two outside. Two inside. One outside. Two inside, Two outside, etc.

pearl vine
#

whilst playin dust felt like

void hound
# tepid trellis very much depends on how well versed you are, this version of sub you can more o...

i consider myself versed in both
i find the difficulty of dust vastly overblown since it only made you think hard about one button (vanish)
whereas right now, in order to min max, you have to consider every sectec, dance, symbols and cb if you feel fancy (for the longer boss fights)
also the fact that for full mastery you need to learn both hero talents which come with their own quirks
ofc this is all highly subjective

pearl vine
#

me when shadowdust

keen dome
#

Dust was just looking at someone far better and smarter than me playing and copying them.

#

However I do miss 1Dust Brew for keys, that was fun

tepid trellis
#

tbf it was a headache

#

trying to do 40 different versions of cd line ups

vestal escarp
#

Praise be thr racoon

tepid trellis
#

to see if you could squeeze in something somewhere

keen dome
pearl vine
#

yeah exactly

jolly pasture
#

If they just made blades and flag line up... dust didnt have go go

void hound
tepid trellis
#

and having to redo them every week cuz people got stronger

void hound
#

however for 99% of people that problem was solved

pearl vine
#

yeah if you go and look at it

#

but if you are outlaw and lazy..

vestal escarp
#

The dust bullshit some tend to oversight is that in that tier we had to play around flag as always but with vanish being static 2 min and trinket too

vale pine
upper narwhal
#

Dust was spreadsheet simulator good riddance fuck that talent

tepid trellis
#

most people dont even know how to look at logs

pearl vine
#

then u missed out on at least a set and you enter p3 fyrakk and your flag is 50 sec cd and your sb is 5 min cd

#

and you have 3 vanish stacks

vale pine
#

i personally don't like doing spreadsheets which tell you cooldown use exactly

Dust was crippled by the misaligned cd timings of flag and blades. With both on 2min we wouldn't have any issues

lilac stag
leaden prairie
#

during reclears it was just annoying

vale pine
#

because fight strategies and kill times can easy invalidate them, also procs can impact it

upper narwhal
#

Like 5 people interacted with dust and everyone else looked at spreadsheets

tepid trellis
keen dome
#

I really like where Sub is right now. As trickster.

pearl vine
#

ill agree there it still kinda was

void hound
#

dust was definitely not "Pick up and play" friendly, but neither is the current iteration so i think its kinda moot

leaden prairie
#

like i loved doing my thing on tindral for example

pearl vine
#

im sad it went away

leaden prairie
#

i couldnt even check others cause i wasnt doing normal set of feather

vale pine
# pearl vine

I thought it was math at first view, then realized its some conspiricy stuff

leaden prairie
#

but it was just fun

pearl vine
#

same zac

leaden prairie
#

figuring out random timings

#

idk

pearl vine
#

like i went to look for

#

feathers or whatever

vale pine
#

i think even now

pearl vine
#

and jesus fuck noneone went up 2nd feathers

vale pine
#

we run into the problem of...

fallow nimbus
#

I rather have dust + 2min cds than what we have now

leaden prairie
#

2nd set was better anyway peeposmile

vestal escarp
#

The dust replacement made things more complicated

void hound
#

its probably better for the game that dust got removed, but it also removed a niche sub had
now sub is a way harder sell compared to assa because of it

vestal escarp
#

Not by much

#

But still

leaden prairie
#

so thats a niche

#

if you feel that way bout sub tho

#

imagine outlaw 💀

keen dome
#

pour one out for the pirates

void hound
#

isnt that a classic wow spec?

fallow nimbus
#

That sod charges and flag don't reset after a wipe is atrocious

leaden prairie
#

It's funny cause they made dance reset

#

But like idk they never learn

tepid trellis
#

Flag does no?

vestal escarp
#

No

fallow nimbus
#

No

leaden prairie
#

1min30 cd cuh

#

GS on outlaw is the same

keen dome
#

It's probably just missing the... flag.. for it.

leaden prairie
#

Very funny when you press GS and insta wipe

#

And you don't have it gg

vestal escarp
#

Hasnt happened to you that at court wipes at dipels you had to call for 1min prepull?

tepid trellis
#

Thought I read that they did fix that some time ago. Guess not

leaden prairie
vestal escarp
#

Cause you just sent flag

leaden prairie
#

Then the rest they do manually

tepid trellis
#

Nope

fringe palm
#

Best thing is the people that use transmitter prepull and then you cancel pull. Time to wait

leaden prairie
#

Like they did with dance

leaden prairie
keen dome
leaden prairie
#

Me when I roll 30 s before pull and we cancel it

#

💀

fringe palm
fallow nimbus
#

The total cd time must be >=2min

summer peak
#

Is there any sub video guide that people recommend from a high level rogue ?

tepid trellis
#

Eleem has a decent video on how the rotation functions

alpine wraith
#

i did so many

#

but also you might want to wait a bit for the new 11.1 things

haughty mural
#

🐐

tribal blade
#

i just started looking into the raid fights and the 1st boss is literally perfect for sub huh

vestal escarp
#

So it's perfect for fury

#

Nic3

#

More war nerfs

tribal blade
#

yeah but they don't have the ST burst we have for the dmg amp

#

or maybe they do now? i dunno what warr looks like with those mega buffs

vestal escarp
#

They have decent burst

tribal blade
#

i'm also curious on elusiveness vs feint for the keys next season

alpine wraith
#

they have toned down a lot of 1 taps but i would still run elu mostly

#

still very danger dots around

#

specially in ToP you have so much unavoidable dmg

#

that you can kinda predict

#

and well motherlode

tribal blade
#

yeah any time there's big dots elusiveness becomes really good

vestal escarp
#

Elu is op

barren wolf
#

well cheat death is op too

#

imagine being allowed to die

#

id say even more op

alpine wraith
#

well it depends usually you avoid at all costs dying and letting healer use less resources on you is always objectively better

#

but me bad player need cheat most of the time

#

or having a safeguard is so comfy

#

there are some places where cheat is whatever like places with lots of dots tho you just die next tick

barren wolf
#

depends a lot on the frequency

#

cause we still have evasion and cloak

umbral relic
#

I’ve try scrolling up to find info about sub for this page

#

But it’s divided into tons of small bits

#

Can we have a pinned/custom thread state of the art explaining what is fixed / changed?

alpine wraith
#

not much has changed

#

that is why there is no pin

umbral relic
#

Okk

alpine wraith
#

at most we are limit testing how long or worth it is to gamble on tier set

#

first initial find is to not use finishers that can krangle it if flag is around 20 secs off cd

#

everything else is in the air

umbral relic
#

That mean that at last the stacking system is working fine I guess

lilac stag
alpine wraith
#

there is a weird bug with tier and sec tech

#

but i think it is a change they will make maybe but it was not fully added yet

umbral relic
#

The clone doesn’t work on stacks?

#

Is it this ( or that, I failed English) you’re talking about?

alpine wraith
#

more like sometimes it does not get buffed by tier

#

randomly

alpine wraith
#

you dont spam rupture

#

you just build to full and likely use it on pandemic

#

you overstimate a lot our cp gen outside dance

vestal escarp
#

You have to farm dance cdr somehow

lilac stag
#

Oh the realization of people coming to the spec that this is the least intuitive dps spec to play in the game. pepe_chad

alpine wraith
#

you already did the other whole min

umbral relic
keen dome
#

How many Evis's do we actually send between Dances. I should count sometime

#

It's gotta be what, 3 at most?

alpine wraith
#

2 or 3

#

yea

keen dome
#

And like people have said it does no damage anyway

lilac stag
keen dome
#

So it's pretty whatever if it's a rupture instead

alpine wraith
#

well you would rupture anyway

keen dome
#

ye

alpine wraith
#

so you just pool kinda

keen dome
#

Perfect raid leading time

umbral relic
#

Oh by the way in the opener flag and SB are Delayed, do you wait for SB to come back after to cast them together or do you keep that delay ?

alpine wraith
#

you sec tech then blades before 1 sec is off

lilac stag
#

it’s always the same

alpine wraith
#

but sending them together is almost the same now

#

it should line up next time

umbral relic
#

Line up? Wdym?

umbral relic
#

So you wait a little more since you don’t have vanish / rupture anymore but you don’t exactly line up it

alpine wraith
#

no it is just because blades lasts 16 secs

#

and now it works on copies but the first hit of sec tech is not big so we dont really care about it

#

so if you use it a bit later you get more abilities affected by blades

#

you have around 0.6 secs or so to use blades after sec tech for it to affect the copies too

#

or just use it before

umbral relic
#

I’m feeling dumb and hope it’s not tiring for you 😦
Since flag is 12 sec, don’t you want to cast it after SB?
In the opener i get why, but after in the rotation i don’t get it

lilac stag
#

Flag is not 12 seconds

#

Your cd burst is exactly the same every 90 seconds

#

Wowhead guide has pictures of it helps

alpine wraith
#

flag lasts 12 secs then another 12 secs

#

so it lasts longer

tribal blade
#

full stopping everything 20 secs off from flag is not too bad

umbral relic
tribal blade
#

if it's found to be optimal to only press rupture outside dance.... degen gameplay inc

umbral relic
#

Okkkk thx

umbral relic
alpine wraith
#

well the dances outside cds are not that important lets say

lilac stag
barren wolf
#

yes please

alpine wraith
#

so likely you can gamble some evis in between

#

i wont but you can try

tribal blade
#

nightblade

#

when

alpine wraith
#

miss me with that gambling shiet

#

you dont want NB back bro

#

a 12 sec dot is not it

tribal blade
#

well update rupture and just call it nightblade haha

umbral relic
lilac stag
#

Instead they’re the Venom spec.

tribal blade
#

and make it shadow dmg

lilac stag
#

We don’t need nighblade 2.0

tribal blade
barren wolf
tribal blade
#

if i'm not wrong that's 3 chances of resetting tier in 1 hit

#

we're talking about next season though

#

not right now

umbral relic
#

Lol that tier set is truely a death kiss from blizzard

vestal escarp
#

It's cheap on purpose

keen dome
vestal escarp
#

They're on the "one can only have so many good ideas" road

lilac stag
#

Let me say it louder for those in the back. FUCK RUPTURE

keen dome
#

What could you put in place of it for Sub, though. maybe something like GS except more thematic? Less a DoT and more something you play around to amp damage even more

lilac stag
#

NOTHING. more evis dmg

keen dome
#

I support more evis damage

barren wolf
#

you know what

#

you should get garrote too

#

fuck you

keen dome
#

only if it's purple

barren wolf
#

deal

fallow nimbus
#

There once was a talent that refreshed rupture duration

lilac stag
#

Do we get shadow splatter too?

keen dome
#

Hahaha

barren wolf
#

you already have normal color spatter...

#

youre reaching

keen dome
#

give us both

#

shadow splatter and flurry

#

let's go, double AoE

lilac stag
#

Only 1/2 of sub had normal. Assa has it 24/7

#

Default shadow splatter it is

barren wolf
#

its crazy they gave spatter attached to the single target spender while already having an aoe spender

#

makes no sense

vestal escarp
#

You already nimble the shadow evis... As physical dmg garf_sit

lilac stag
#

what else is assa missing? Get them the final pieces of do everything puzzle

vale pine
#

having only one damage finisher sounds boring

lilac stag
#

I GOT IT. Assa needs NO PARRY

keen dome
#

honestly making no parry be the rogue raid buff kinda slaps though

barren wolf
#

like shaman does

keen dome
#

+2% haste and no parry

vale pine
#

also defensives

#

assassiantion needs to be as tanky as DK

lilac stag
#

assa now has PI when casting envenom

vale pine
#

(i am joking)

barren wolf
#

dont joke

#

its fine

keen dome
#

pi stands for poison infusion

barren wolf
#

we accept that

tribal blade
#

bring back smoke bomb?

keen dome
#

yes

#

also cannon barrage

tribal blade
#

probably not LOS but do something else

barren wolf
#

something like each envenom has a chance of proc'ing a kingsbane

#

and each time it doesnt proc, it gets a higher chance

#

ofc bad luck protection

keen dome
tribal blade
#

that sounds like rng crackshot

keen dome
#

it also moves the gather onto a DPS which would be interesting

lilac stag
barren wolf
tribal blade
#

they need to do stuff like replace tea

#

who actually likes tea

keen dome
#

the english

tribal blade
#

unironically likes it

lilac stag
#

Kush

tribal blade
#

it's so boring

keen dome
#

It's a relic of older design

tribal blade
#

it also makes no sense to tie a mast buff to an energy thing

keen dome
#

Yeah

vale pine
#

tea is design wise fine

tribal blade
#

is it a dmg buff or is it for energy

barren wolf
#

i like it when its only energy and energy is scarce 🙂

tribal blade
#

shouldn't be both

vale pine
#

its just boring

keen dome
#

I dunno. It feels like it's a relic retooled. Needless button bloat with multiple things shoved onto it.

fringe palm
#

Energy is an outdated concept, doesn't work for current class design

tribal blade
#

i like it how blizz looked at the whole history of rogue and decided to give us thistle tea lol

lilac stag
#

Why can’t tea be a choice node? Green tea (energy) Black Tea (Mastery)

tribal blade
fringe palm
lilac stag
#

Hire me blizz

#

Will save this fucking class

barren wolf
#

wdym remove energy???

#

do you hear yourself

granite river
#

If you think about it more energy is also a dam buff

barren wolf
#

go play one of the many specs that dont have energy

tribal blade
#

energy is fine, it's just the strange thing where baseline is 100 and then sin somehow has 300

lilac stag
#

Not if you get the energy when you don’t need it

keen dome
#

Is the black tea licorice flavour?

lilac stag
#

No

vale pine
#

petition to make outlaw chuck rum instead of tea

lilac stag
#

It’s grape ghost energy drink

fringe palm
#

It's either too much and basically doesn't exist, or too little. Current class design for other specs is basically always global capped, energy classes (and dk) feel slow or energy doesn't matter for them

keen dome
barren wolf
#

not with the concept

lilac stag
keen dome
#

I've never drunk an energy drink

lilac stag
#

And you call yourself a rogue

keen dome
#

Well I am old

lilac stag
#

So am I

fringe palm
lilac stag
tribal blade
#

we're not young enough to be the zoomer outlaws

keen dome
#

touché

vale pine
#

lol

oblique grove
#

I haven't looked at ptr is sub pog or dog

fringe palm
#

Idm energy classes it's all I played since legion

barren wolf
#

whats the problem with having slow specs though? like what if you want a fast spec theres like 30 out there that spam abilities

oblique grove
#

Please don't tell my it's another ass season

keen dome
#

sub rogue is always pog

tribal blade
#

everyone saw wox's stream finally and were like "of course he's barely an adult"

lilac stag
#

me trying to stay awake for the last hour of raid, while not putting myself into an insomnia state for working the next day.

keen dome
#

I just drink a lot of coffee which is probably why I can't sleep ever.

fringe palm
barren wolf
#

monk has energy too

fringe palm
#

Yes and monk is global capped for 3 expansions+

barren wolf
#

depends on build

#

and procs

#

and stats

lilac stag
#

Rogue is perma global capped. omegalul

vale pine
barren wolf
#

on assa

#

and sub isnt gcd capped

#

is it

fringe palm
lilac stag
#

Spinning 45s. The assa Dream

alpine wraith
#

think sub is kinda the only one that has this energy feel to it outside of cds

lilac stag
#

if energy was gone the entire design of sub would be null.

alpine wraith
#

assa also has some minigames too kinda

tribal blade
#

sin got given a new mini game to juggle not proccing tea lol

#

the change nobody asked for

fringe palm
#

Yeah envenom, but since 05 it's also just press buttons for the most part

lilac stag
#

new new mini game. Dry Shiv Lingering

tribal blade
#

they also need to remove the nature amp from shiv for sin

#

give it a new button

tulip gorge
#

if you want to use every single gcd, outlaw is for you

tribal blade
#

so we can have 10 second shiv back

fringe palm
#

@barren wolf do you consider assa dungeon spec st good gameplay?

tulip gorge
#

there is a reason why energy classes have 1 sec gcds instead of 1.5s

fringe palm
#

3min+ St bosses

lilac stag
#

Sub players want burst CDs and don’t give a shit about stuff out of CDs. That’s done with resources. The throttle for that is energy. So yes energy is still important and relevant.

oblique grove
#

I just don't want my raid lead to tell me to play ass again

tulip gorge
oblique grove
#

Please God

lilac stag
#

Why are you listening to your RL?

oblique grove
#

Well I don't

lilac stag
#

You realize how hard it is to replace a rogue?

oblique grove
#

I played sub on nippletwister

fringe palm
#

It's incredible boring and unfun for me

oblique grove
#

But they get pissy

lilac stag
#

I’ve tried to quit rogue 3 times.

#

I’m still here

oblique grove
#

I almost played dh because all the dhs are always heralding the end of all life or something

fringe palm
oblique grove
#

But I'm still the single only rogue we have

lilac stag
barren wolf
lilac stag
#

Assa is very chill. People find that fun.

fringe palm
oblique grove
#

I started playing rogue in s2 dragonflight so I've basically been playing sub the whole time til outlaw this tier

tulip gorge
lilac stag
#

every spec should feel the same?

oblique grove
#

I do not like assassin near as much

lilac stag
#

If you don’t like something. Don’t play it. The content you’re pushing in raid likely doesn’t give a fuck.

fringe palm
#

No, but if the spec does nothing 50% of the time it's not fun for me

barren wolf
#

then dont play it???/

tulip gorge
#

then go play outlaw lol

lilac stag
#

then don’t play it

fringe palm
#

Reading comprehension seems difficult it is what it is

barren wolf
#

game is big enough to have different specs for everyone

lilac stag
#

you’re complaining about assa in a sub channel that, checks initial complaint, cares about energy

#

wtf is your point here?

idle pilot
#

I like pineapple on pizza.

lilac stag
#

Back to assa channel

idle pilot
oblique grove
#

I just want to hit fat dingers or pull out the gyatt for as many times as God allows

lilac stag
#

Pineapple on pizza = .2% dps gain from 4pc tier.

idle pilot
#

That's a low blow right there :C

lilac stag
tribal blade
idle pilot
#

I think the ref should pull a red card right there.

tribal blade
granite river
tulip gorge
#

especially if you have to spend energy on feint too LULW

lilac stag
#

I figure in 2 hours streamer visit time to tell us sub is dead

#

That should cap off the day

alpine wraith
#

ahaha

hazy breach
#

Maybe we have a working tier set come .5

barren wolf
#

once again, my problem is the 7th cp on assa cause it means we build so much more than we spend

#

but alas

lilac stag
barren wolf
#

I WILL CONTINUE COMPLAINING

alpine wraith
#

complain every day and send a bug report

lilac stag
#

Deathstalker is shit

alpine wraith
#

fatal intent is peak design

lilac stag
#

and they don’t care

barren wolf
#

my favorite was 5cp assa cause we had to manage rupture more, envenom duration was lower

#

UWU

tribal blade
#

well we had a good run in ptr

barren wolf
#

i complain about assa in sub channel

tribal blade
#

better luck next time

barren wolf
#

ill stop sorry

lilac stag
#

I miss actually managing dots as assa

#

Nah you’re gucci. We like you.

barren wolf
#

my honest reaction when i press rupture and its 45 SECONDS

#

WHAT?

oblique burrow
#

Never tried sub, always liked the calm feeling of playing assa

lilac stag
#

there’s just no dot management with the dot spec. like wtf

oblique burrow
#

Except when its AOE, AOE we go crazy crazy in M+

tribal blade
#

sub right now is either high octane gogogo or sitting afk

#

no inbetween

jolly pasture
#

Inb4 tier set is fixed for the one week before we equip 11.2 set

oblique grove
#

Flaggleblades gives me some dopamine that only crackshot can match

oblique burrow
#

Assa waiting till the begining of the PTR to get their tier set fixed

lilac stag
#

You’ve come to the wrong channel to complain about broken tier.

tepid trellis
#

@vale pine what we complaining about in here now?

hazy breach
#

Assas tier just has low numbers

oblique grove
#

Just do some crack idk

vale pine
umbral relic
#

All my guild and friends are telling me to play assa

But I know how much they feel insecure once I reach burst window

oblique burrow
#

The ticks of rupture still cancels the buff

vale pine
#

but i think people are mostly mad because "bruh nerf"

tepid trellis
#

what nerfs?

#

ive been working

oblique grove
#

So you guys think I can strongarm my way through only playing sub and outlaw

lilac stag
#

Bugs

tribal blade
vale pine
#

tl;dr: they "fixed" things and introduced new bugs

tepid trellis
#

i do that every tier

vale pine
#

so sub went from opop to, less op

leaden prairie
lilac stag
tribal blade
#

my raid team has a mage who has a high guild ranking who only plays arcane

lilac stag
#

Don’t tell me what to play

tribal blade
#

so i'm safe

oblique grove
#

We had 3 rogues and they all rerolled to dk

#

Which I do not respect

lilac stag
#

frost is fun

oblique grove
#

Well 3 including myself so 2

leaden prairie
lilac stag
#

Good choices

lilac stag
leaden prairie
#

I don't think I ever did a guild where there wasn't another one trick rogue

#

No I join

oblique grove
#

The one trick rogue in my raid ended up going to ww pre expac

hazy breach
leaden prairie
#

I just always join guilds with one trick rogues for some reason

lilac stag
#

they see you’re outlaw and the other rogue goes oh fuck, stuck on this another tier.

leaden prairie
lilac stag
#

I legit forget are you pushing HoF?

oblique grove
#

I once rolled 5s twice in a row

lilac stag
#

I think CE outside of HoF struggles to find rogues.

oblique grove
#

Yo were snuggling rogues?

#

Oh darn

lilac stag
#

if I had a rogue to snuggle I would with my bombs

alpine wraith
#

tbh many rogues need snuggling

oblique burrow
#

My raid cant replace me, the other rogues dont like playing all 3 specs too 😎

oblique grove
#

I'm happy as can be if I don't have to play assassin

tepid trellis
#

ive basically been alone since Push quit the game

oblique burrow
#

Never played sub, compared to outlaw and assa where is it in terms of difficulty?

tepid trellis
#

we do have another guy that plays rogue

#

but he is more fotm

#

so he can more stuff and is currently playing ww

oblique grove
#

I'm terrible at describing things but basically sub is good 💯

lilac stag
tepid trellis
#

if i can force my guild to let me play it

#

then so can you

#

trust

vale pine
#

^

tepid trellis
#

more DR nodes

lilac stag
#

We stack vers

tepid trellis
#

and Vers

hazy breach
#

Because outlaw and sub has multiple defensive nodes

lilac stag
#

And more Dr nodes

hazy breach
#

Assa has none

tribal blade
#

it's very noticable

oblique burrow
#

Noted 🫡

tribal blade
#

i did the entire of ovi prog as sin

lilac stag
#

you can almost never fient on Ovi. lol

tribal blade
#

and then swapped to sub and things that would kill me stopped killing me

oblique burrow
#

I'll see with sub how its going 🫡

tepid trellis
oblique grove
#

I had to start assassin on nippletwister but eventually I just snuck in a quick spec change and we killed it after

hazy breach
#

10% damage reduction thats up roughly 50% of the time, 8% more healing taken and like 10% less damage taken from vers Surebud

oblique grove
#

Probably not coincidental

signal tangle
hazy breach
#

Whereas assa has 3% leech

tepid trellis
signal tangle
#

I just swapped to rogue for S2 cause my guild needs one

lilac stag
#

Sorry

signal tangle
#

But I'm still kinda trying to figure out what spec I'll play

tepid trellis
#

which was week 3 i think

#

i think that was when i got the trinket

lilac stag
#

Whatever you enjoy

#

Is what you should play

tepid trellis
#

only reason why i didn't play sub pre transmitter was because i did around 15% more dmg as Assa than i did as Sub

#

and im unfortunately not bad enough at assa

#

to make up that difference

signal tangle
#

Yeah I know but last time I've played Rogue was end of Shadowlands and it was just to play a couple of M+ with friends. And I only tried Outlaw at the time.
