#

dagger is real safe though yeah

tribal blade
#

you essentially double dip value when you craft wep with ascendance

sly shore
#

and if you wanna change embellish you can just griftah it

tribal blade
#

wep ilvl early on is big, upgrading embel early on is big

#

2 for 1

sly shore
#

idk embellishments are static value

#

they don't scale with ilvl

#

so it's basically ilvl only

tribal blade
#

oh does ascendance not gain value

#

damn

sly shore
#

no embellishment does

lilac stag
#

some of them scale slightly. Just not worth it

tribal blade
#

mmmm gotcha

#

i forgot they changed how embels scale now

sly shore
#

embellishments are really really bad

#

I suspect we get to a point where they aren't even worth 3ilvls ngl

#

šŸ’€

lilac stag
#

I think they’re done with the system but just keep it for crafting

#

It was near dead on release

tribal blade
#

i enjoyed whispyr's post about embels

tribal blade
#

where gaining raw ilvl outscaled embels early on into a new tier

mint swift
#

I want Uber power embellish

keen dome
#

Yeah, feels like they'll ditch them in Midnight, or do something different. At least we have semi-deterministic crafting

mint swift
#

That was fun

tribal blade
#

i forget which tier for me that happened

keen dome
#

Abberus, maybe?

#

Oh, no. Probably Amirdrasil with the iLevel jump?

mint swift
#

I remember those toxic thorn boots in S2

tribal blade
#

i vaguely remember being in uld

#

Does anyone have the symbols of death - null macro at the ready? Or is there a command for it? Didn't see it immediately in the wowhead guide

vestal escarp
#

!sod

wicked joltBOT
#

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

#

Thanks!

I thought that one didn't work?

That’s something I didn’t expect.

Knife is good

If we could get it on myth track it would be turbo bis

Those 2 trinkets are like bread and butter of sub

alpine wraith
#

lantern is better than knife but not by much

#

sad that it is crit but still quite decent

umbral relic
#
/castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null 
/cqs ```
#

doesn't work rly well

#

sometimes i can't cast at all

#

sometimes i can spam

alpine wraith
#

you never spam

#

what the macro does is just make you unable to use 2 in a row

#

you need to stop pressing

umbral relic
#

seems like cancelqueue is the same as classic

#

i'll dig in more

alpine wraith
#

it just resets if you dont press the button in 2 secs

umbral relic
#

yup i got same on classic spells, but sometimes it doesn't give a damn and let you spam like there was no reset

#

on classic*

#

and i just put 2 in a row right now 😮

swift tinsel
#

Did a tier test last night bc I saw there was a ptr update and evisc reset ~10% of all hits between phys and shadow so I’m gonna do a few more

#

Coup reset I think it was 12 times out of 22 casts (17 w FW) so I’m gonna try controlling for FW uptime better

haughty mural
#

Like flavor pocket

keen dome
#

Flavour pocket is redundant in TWW

#

It got baked into cooking itself which was actually good design by Blizz imo

haughty mural
#

For sure
What I meant was: they could add embellishments with some utility effects like flavor pocket was in df

vale pine
#

they baked flavor pocket into crafting

#

i think the change was smart

keen dome
#

It'd be cool if Embelishments were more just QoL designed like you say. Add one you can put in boots which allows 500% movespeed in legacy content haha

swift tinsel
#

My guild complained bc I would drop hearty feasts and then healers would have to heal people back up instead of using the mage food I’d drop..

#

After a wipe

haughty mural
lucid lily
#

just make everyone eat mage food

#

that's what we do

swift tinsel
#

That’s what I said to do, as the mage

lucid lily
#

got the healers to shut up so everyone wins

keen dome
#

Embelishmments being powerful QoL and stuff would be a real good direction for them to go

swift tinsel
#

Gimme finesse and perception embellishments

keen dome
#

I am really sad the Enginerting tinker is so bad because the idea of like, baking int a potion consumable into a piece of crafted gear is cool

#

And something they should do more of. An embelishment that's just a Rank 3 pot glued to the gear.

swift tinsel
#

Potion bombs were a super neat addition, I kinda wish they did a little more expanding on them

#

So few people know about them too it seems like

worn cape
#

Engineering always has the coolest stuff, but people either sleep on it or it is just worse than the alternative.

vale pine
#

the new engineering potion was used in the world first race

#

but nobody else wants to use it ^^

keen dome
#

It's drawback is so silly

alpine wraith
#

yea it is very useful to use

vale pine
#

its mroe

alpine wraith
#

it is a min max thing mostly

vale pine
#

people do like to think selfish

#

and the effect isn't that good for your hps/dps

#

but insane for your group

keen dome
#

I'm refering to the tinker potion, to be clear, which has a needless drawback

vale pine
#

oh

swift tinsel
keen dome
#

But I absolutely agree with the sentiment on the other stuff. It's really cool and interesting

worn cape
#

Do the potion bombs put your or the targets pot on cd?

keen dome
#

But specifically:

#

You heal for about a million more, but the burn is really dangeorus (and also never got scaled in any timewalking content lmao)

plush roost
alpine wraith
#

they were used by tanks some healers and other people's if their cds were not huge

plush roost
#

Aka healer throws potion bomb of power at dps and they all tempered = wowee secondaries

dim trail
#

Hi all, wich ones are the best trinkets for M+?

#

season 2

alpine wraith
#

rn transmitter/house of cards and eye of kezan or drink

#

there are many mid to not bad trinks like heart of azerokk

worn cape
alpine wraith
#

or some of the delve ones

valid sundial
#

can I macro flag and blades?

plush roost
#

Does shadow ritual knife return in season 2? And will it be on the new hero track?

#

Do maps carry over across seasons? Must i delve?

#

"must"

cloud rover
#

Im pretty sure

#

everything gets resetted

#

or has a Season 1 Tag on it

keen dome
#

You must Delve, yeah

remote shuttle
#

Not doing delves last weeks... I don't remember, loot is delve locked? Or can you find everything in every delve?

molten citrus
tulip gorge
#

you shouldn't macro them together

molten citrus
#

like you sync up CDs, but you don't cast many on the same GCD at all

#

other than like trinket/pot etc

molten citrus

sub is a cool spec

remote shuttle
#

Y hacha and subs are cool Gamerz

valid sundial
#

I like sub players in PVE

#

I need to emphasize the PVE part for Trickz

dreamy badger
#

Pvp doesnt exist

#

No need to specify

alpine wraith
#

pvp does exist but it is painful

#

also we are getting nerfed week 1(in pvp)

#

sec tech hits hard again

#

even after a 70% damage reduction

#

and works with blades

vestal escarp
#

Pvp spec

molten citrus
#

pvp been around longer than mplusser, surperior minigame of the 2 minigames

vestal escarp
#

Pvp is no minigame

#

It's a shitgame

molten citrus
#

nah

#

still going strong

sick jackal
#

for a while pvp has just been nerf what people cry about on forums

#

than actualy design or anything on it

molten citrus
#

idk i think they would stop buffing ret if that were the case

#

Hey guys, our 11.1 rotation gonna change at all?

alpine wraith
#

we will use dances a bit different likely but still nothing super in stone

#

only thing found fast is not using finishers that may reset tier set if flag is like 15-20 secs away

turbid depot
alpine wraith
#

np hope they help rogue can be tricky

shrewd grail
#

they made him reroling

vestal escarp
#

destro season?

tidal copper
#

With how many 90s windows this upcoming raid tier seems to have, what are the odds that Subtlety passes Assassination in raids?

turbid depot
hazy breach
#

Sub was better for the majority of nerubar despite no good 90s windows

tidal copper
#

it didnt look like the raid data supports that

hazy breach
#

Assa got some sizeable buffs

alpine wraith
#

also assa is a bit behind rn in season 2

#

bad tier and other things

#

might get some 3 or 4 buffs again

hazy breach
#

Assa is better on rashanan and ovinax for sure

#

But early on nobody played assa on court or queen

tidal copper
#

Gotcha, I just started playing rogue a few weeks ago since it does much better boss damage than Windwalker and Subtlety seems to be behind in that regard

hazy breach
#

But ye sub is looking good because the new tier set is really strong

#

Assas tierset is really bad

tidal copper
#

thats what it looks like to me too

#

I was just struggling on target dummies last night trying to learn Subtlety, it felt like the cooldowns almost never lined up

hazy breach
#

Not naturally no

#

You pretty much need guides, its really hard to wing it

#

Sub is just very unintuitive

tidal copper
#

Yeah, i was looking at the guides, but things never seemed to line up the way that the guides said they would

lilac stag
#

Don’t use macros

tidal copper
#

and checking out Hekili or HeroRotation seemed to avoid using Flagellation despite it clearly being in the APL

hazy breach
#

Well it doesnt line up, you hold stuff to force it to line up

leaden prairie
#

Guys

#

Is sub dead

lilac stag
#

yes

#

Very dead

leaden prairie
#

Ah ok

#

Unluck

lilac stag
#

Outlaw pumping

keen dome
#

I ate a real big burger and feel dead, so I'm going to go with: yep, sub dead atm

leaden prairie
#

Ye I heard

#

Ttyty

hazy breach
#

The dances outside flag+blades are not that huge

terse imp
#

Is macroing CDs for the initial SD + SoD + SS really that much of an issue if you're only that button in flag windows?

hazy breach
#

Esp next patch we are looking at like 75% of all of our damage being inside shadow blades, aka 16 seconds

hazy breach
#

In the middle of your burst you dont want them macroed

#

Like after your first dance fades, you want to dance immediately

lilac stag
#

just extra binds for no real reason

hazy breach
#

But if you symbols at the same time, you will not supercharge your sectech

#

So you need to hold symbols for a global or two to make sure sectech has less than 10s left on its cooldown so it can get supercharged

shrewd grail
#

sub rogue good for raiding next season tho ?

hazy breach
#

Why would it not be

vernal junco
#

I tried playing sub, and it felt really weird. There are long periods where I’m basically just AFKing, waiting for CDs and energy
just auto atk, there’s nothing else to do.

Is this how it’s supposed to be?

wicked joltBOT
#

Subtlety is designed to be a spec with highs and lows. During your cooldowns you do immense burst and have plenty of buttons to spam but conversely outside of symbols and dance you do not do any damage whatsoever. This means that having some periods of "afk" downtime where you do not press a button because you're out of energy is the intended way the spec plays. As long as its not happening inside your cooldowns (flag/blades/dance/symbols) its not a problem at all, and especially nothing that having more haste would "fix".

lilac stag
terse imp
tidal copper
#

yeah i only tried it on a few different dummies last night, but couldnt figure otu why it wasn't wanting to use Flagellation at all

#

so maybe it was the health thing or just dummies being dumb

lilac stag
#

I’m guessing you have CDs disabled or flag disabled

tidal copper
#

i checked all that, even played around with the APL to see if I could fix it. I may just have to see how it goes in raid tonight

sly shore
#

sub is rough to learn

#

psure this channel is going to be absolutely saturated in a few weeks

terse imp
#

Any guidance on where to send the odd Symbols? I find myself not utilizing the 'extra' one well and i'm not sure how much of a loss that really is

sly shore
#

once people realise that it does good damage but is equally a shit show to learn

lilac stag
tidal copper
lilac stag
#

There’s a reason no one plays this spec

sly shore
#

I know how to play it simply because I've played sub consistently for years

#

and I keep up with the changes

leaden prairie
#

i know how to play it cause kieron taught me everything i know

sly shore
#

so true actually

vernal junco
#

kind of missing invigorating shadowdust

sly shore
#

he ask question me answer

sly shore
lilac stag
leaden prairie
#

rip dust

fallow nimbus
#

"Why am i doing no dmg?" Uses everything on cd

leaden prairie
#

i know how to play sub dont mock me

sly shore
#

if sub is massively far ahead

leaden prairie
#

!

sly shore
#

kinda have to play it

leaden prairie
#

sub is more fun than assa !

lilac stag
sly shore
#

but

#

if assa is equal or slightly behind

#

might as well play that

#

cos it's easier for the same outcome

leaden prairie
#

no because its less fun !

keen dome
#

Less purple, too

lilac stag
#

if you’re a VE assa can be purple

keen dome
#

Not the cool purple.

leaden prairie
#

guys

#

ok hear me out

#

waht if

#

its an outlaw tier

#

toughts ?

leaden prairie
#

@sly shore

sly shore
#

Convince me

leaden prairie
#

big sword ?

#

ok wait

#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
keen dome
#

I support it being an outlaw tier. I'm not good enough nor do I play high enough for it to effect me. Ergo: CHAOS REIGNS

sly shore
#

100k ahead!!!

molten citrus
#

outlaw got +6% while the other specs got 0%

leaden prairie
#

sub tier is 30%

#

it wont stay 30%

molten citrus
#

outlaw tier!

leaden prairie
#

they will nerf it to be 20%

#

10%*

#

so sub get to do the same dps as sin

tulip gorge
#

they will buff assa instead

sly shore
#

then all 3 rogue specs in the bottom 25% for dps LFG

leaden prairie
#

and then outlaw is about 400k dps ahead of both specs

tulip gorge
#

since their tier is utter garbage

leaden prairie
#

toughts ?

vernal junco
leaden prairie
#

are you convinced ???

#

also secondly !

molten citrus
#

make it sim higher right now

#

maybe i believe you then

leaden prairie
#

sub and sin both relly on the same 2 op trinket than every other spec in the game

vernal junco
#

outlaw always sims higher

sly shore
#

yeah transmitter

leaden prairie
#

ye the new one

cinder steppe
#

is casual good or sub or both?

sly shore
#

no

#

transmitter is better

leaden prairie
#

wat

#

no wea

#

!

sly shore
#

yes

leaden prairie
#

sims !

leaden prairie
#

No wae dude

#

Does it sim higher than the new trinket

hazy breach
#

Maxxed out new trinket sims the same as transmitter

leaden prairie
#

It doesn't or

#

Bro why you trolling

hazy breach
#

But transmitter is also scuffed in sims

#

Because its got a +-3 second window to activate the buff

#

Which you cant turn off

leaden prairie
#

I mean I would litteraly give up half my DPS to not play transmitter tbf

#

I think this trinket make me play way worse

#

Just by existing

hollow snow
#

Eleem how impactful is the +- 3 seconds in sims

#

Roughly

hazy breach
lilac stag
#

@leaden prairie I legit think it could be with lack of ST bosses

solemn creek
#

sub tier is 30% on paper

#

its not in reality

#

with all the bug

hazy breach
lilac stag
#

sub tier is fighting with assa 4pc for 0 dps

hazy breach
leaden prairie
lilac stag
#

There’s a lot of low target cleave

#

From the looks of it

leaden prairie
#

Is it useful

#

Is it burst

vestal escarp
#

gl fighting that as ol with warr

lilac stag
#

hard to tell from what we’ve seen

#

Arms is giga pump right now

hazy breach
#

I mean i dont think it particularly matters for sub if theres cleave/st/aoe

lilac stag
#

fury in shambles

solemn creek
#

no way balance stays like this

hazy breach
#

All that matters is that theres burst requirements

lilac stag
#

Will the burst be needed is the question, or how badly will it be needed

vestal escarp
#

yeah and all that matters for sin is that bosses start with 60% hp

sly shore
#

if burst lines up with 2 mins or 1.5 mins

#

is what will matter

#

šŸ‘

#

like first boss the damage amp is at 2 mins

#

idk if it's worth playing sub for that

hazy breach
#

Sub does significantly more burst than assa

sly shore
#

yeah it's more about if it's worth holding for 30s

hazy breach
#

Yes for sure

sly shore
#

whereas assa will just send pogchamp

#

can easily test anyway

#

I have a mirror rogue

#

so it's no problem

#

Just need some crests to upgrade stuff

leaden prairie
#

And when you actually need to kill adds you get bursty specs

sly shore
#

there is no fight where sustained cleave ever mattered recently

#

if adds live that long they have to do basically nothing by extension

lilac stag
#

Outlaw funnel dmg. Duh

leaden prairie
#

We don't

sly shore
hazy breach
#

Funnel? Thats some assa shit

#

get that out of here

lilac stag
#

IM TRYING TO BE SUPPORTIVE OF breadblade

leaden prairie
#

Outlaw need st fights

#

With full uptime

#

Like kyveza

#

Style stuffs

#

Where the fact it's 500k sim DPS ahead is actually relevant

#

But then you don't have outlaw gear cause you are gearing sub and ass for every other boss

sly shore
#

yeah

#

it's like

#

why gear for 1/3

#

when you can for 2/3

#

you're just lowering odds basically

leaden prairie
#

The haste thing fucked us up even harder regarding that it's funny

sly shore
#

Yeah not adding that to sub or assa in a meaningful way

leaden prairie
#

Before outlaw could just use similar gear than sub at least

sly shore
#

fucked u

#

when sub was crit vers yeah

#

now it's vers mastery

leaden prairie
#

I wish we could use daggers main hand

sly shore
leaden prairie
#

Would help a lot

leaden prairie
#

Getting your 20% haste is so hard

#

It fucks up all your gearing

#

If the dev wanted to troll outlaw they wouldn't have found a better way tbh

vale pine
#

there was a haste neck this tier, should give quite a lot of it

sly shore
#

get one of these bad boys

leaden prairie
#

Ye cause rogue are getting this neck Omegalul

#

Also it has mystery it's terrible

vestal escarp
#

lets give one of the most sought rare items to the outlaw rogue

#

no loot council alive

sly shore
#

you'd have to be in a for fun guild for that

#

and even then it's not happening

lilac stag
#

Or your DH is always dead

hazy breach
vestal escarp
leaden prairie
#

I don't need that neck lol it's trash

#

I need kyveza trinket tho

#

Desperately

#

Help

#

Otherwise I can't play sub what will I do

my shaman got it in a timewalking chest ofc

leaden prairie

I mean I have it in hc

#

I meant mythic

twilit phoenix
leaden prairie
#

Imagine not having it in hc noob Point

leaden prairie
#

Never seen it drop from boss

crystal bone
#

i dont even have it on heroic

twilit phoenix
#

me neither

#

I've never seen a mythic contract or transmitter drop

crystal bone
#

i didnt start enjoying sub until like 2-3 weeks ago

twilit phoenix
#

sick game

leaden prairie
#

I hate loot in. This game

#

Imagine you spend 5 month fighting a boss

twilit phoenix
#

our guild has never seen a mythic spymasters either

leaden prairie
#

At the end of the tier

twilit phoenix
#

people only have it because of vault

leaden prairie
#

You still haven't dropped it's items

vestal escarp
leaden prairie
#

Funny or

leaden prairie
#

Never had it in vault

vestal escarp
#

weirdge

twilit phoenix
#

feels like they should let us bank those vault tokens

#

and purchase a piece for like 12 or 24

vestal escarp
#

susge

twilit phoenix
#

idk man

vestal escarp
#

then just loot cards zac

#

and play sin when it's buffed

twilit phoenix
#

i'll end up using signet of the priory because I'll never get cards

#

for sin at least

torn storm
#

no m transmitter in vault go next

vestal escarp
#

is that thing even usable? dont you go into gigaDR

twilit phoenix
#

i mean, it's an on use highest stat

#

so if you're mast, it should be the same amountish as cards

vestal escarp
#

mastery or crit for sin, ew

twilit phoenix
#

wouldn't mast be the best one?

#

your crit is probably omega dr'ed in opener with MA

vestal escarp
#

MA is flat

hazy breach
#

Only stats DR

#

But then again, its something the sims take into account anyway, so not really much to think about

mint swift
#

We all know speed is the best stat

#

Gotta go fast

vestal escarp
#

hm maybe because it's still s2 that trink on use wont go too much into dr

twilit phoenix
#

what's the huge advantage of cards over priory anyways? (for sin at least) the fact that you get more mast each time you use it?

hazy breach
#

It gives significantly more stats

#

Even if you get the lowest possible from house of cards

twilit phoenix
#

damn, I didn't know there was such a huge disparity

#

Is there a world where they do dungeon trinket tuning in the first few weeks?

#

Would be kind of lame if all the good shit was only from raid

#

Literally everyone seems to be pissing and shitting over cards

hazy breach
#

Like at 639 priory gives 6592 stats.
Cards give at worst 7120

#

So with 3 allies using priory at the same time you get the same amount as cards give you at worst

twilit phoenix
#

stop bro please I get it bro it's making me sad bro

vestal escarp
#

They always wanted trinkets and weapons from raid to be stronger

crystal bone
#

heroic house of cards week 1 Prayge

twilit phoenix
#

i for sure don't get it if it drops

#

but surely week 2 vault house of cards

crystal bone
#

oh shit thats right

#

i forgot other people want it

#

what class has highest prio on it i wonder

#

surely sub right

hazy breach
#

If they nerf transmitter sure

crystal bone
#

big tuning patch next week?

Is sub looking like the best rogue spec for s2 for m+ ? or are there still too many bugs to tell ?

You can since its a debuff, you can have it in the frames if you want

I know how to track debuff, but i wanna know when cd is off to press backstab

#

usually if everything is going right and the debuff falls off usually backstab will reapply it in my experience

man dh look so strong

its actually insane strong and fun at same time

So in aoe i just ignore Unseen blade and cast surikens if im not in shadow dance?

lilac stag
#

Don’t worry. Someday realz will remember us. Then a month later maybe have time to work on us.

vernal junco
#

Basically, I won’t use shuriken at all when I have no cooldowns;
I’ll just use backstab since it makes no difference anyway.

swift tinsel
#

Went out for milk mid-10.2 ptr and still waiting for him to come home

When I do have cooldowns, I’ll eventually use Backstab or Shadowstrike as builders somehow, so this isn’t an issue at all.

DS always wants to press it first finisher in flag windows to fit two of em

#

but in regular dances you can do it as 2nd with DS, just watch out for DN procs

jade urchin
#

and with trickster its always first?

tepid trellis
#

nope

#

its dynamic

#

changes with certain conditions

lilac stag
#

This gets me excited, then I remember there is another.

jade urchin
#

im sorry lmao

lilac stag
#

rip solo

tepid trellis
jade urchin
#

oh didnt know about the 4 stacks

#

but ye makes sense

#

tyvm

tepid trellis
#

basically if coup is ready and fazed is up

#

you send that first

#

then sectech

#

wont happen on pull, but can happen mid fight

jade urchin
#

but generally its sectech over eviscerate

tepid trellis
#

yeh, its just coup + fazed that is higher

jade urchin
#

alright tyvm

j/k

tulip gorge
#

Wait if you have coup you use it before sec tech?

#

Interesting

#

I wonder why, won’t you rather get the extra cdr for sec tech?

tepid trellis
#

firing coup into a Fazed target gives you 5 stacks of flawless form

#

which is 15% more finisher dmg

tulip gorge
#

Oh

#

Makes sense

lilac stag
#

To the PTR. New class fixes!

#

if only rogue was a recognized class by blizzard

clever delta

#

btw

#

cb for second sectech in cds we do even as DS?

#

with sod too

#

becasue im hiting second sectech so late in second dance

Whatever they add it won’t be implemented for sub until a week before beta ends

It's gonna be void-tainted hero talents.

One or two nodes per tree gets a void variant or something

""we""

hazy breach
#

Just dont play DS

steel zinc
hazy breach
#

DS has better sustained aoe

steel zinc
hazy breach
#

Yes

#

But idk, think tricksters still better

vale pine
#

you rarely need sustained aoe

#

stuff dies ^^

steel zinc
#

and at what point is aoe sustained? Like if a pack doesnt like in 30 seconds we have a problem in a key no matter what keylevel (ok apart from chaining)

vestal escarp
#

not if im pooling

hazy breach
#

Ye but DS doesnt really need to hold finishers for tier set

#

They just keep casting bp/evis

steel zinc
hazy breach
#

Yes

#

<25s left on flag

#

for both aoe and st

steel zinc
#

ohhh

vestal escarp
#

i think this difference in profile you're trying to describe is very minimal, or am i wrong?

steel zinc
#

So thats the new cook I guess

#

<25s we just rupture all the way I guess

vale pine
#

you stop using evis to not lose stacks

#

so you snd/rupture

steel zinc
vestal escarp
#

if you're at high stacks

steel zinc
#

I think if stacks are like +7 or?

vale pine
#

bp does lose stacks

hazy breach
#

Like on 8 targets trickster peak burst in my sims is ~34M

#

DS is at ~25m

steel zinc
vestal escarp
#

yes but it's behind on all fronts

hazy breach
#

Its ahead overall (DS that is)

#

On 8 targets sustained

vale pine
#

the tier set = burst
trickster empowers burst so its better

hazy breach
steel zinc
#

or?

hazy breach
#

It matters less if you have fewer stacks ofc

sick jackal
hazy breach
#

But you'd still want to have as much stacks as possible

steel zinc
#

DS in st we also do this?

hazy breach
#

No

steel zinc
#

so as DS we just play "normal" and ignore the tier bonus right?

hazy breach
#

From what i can tell from sims yes

steel zinc
#

how far behind is ds vs trickster?

hazy breach
#

Like 3-4%

steel zinc
#

ok thats enough to play trickster

hazy breach
#

But in practice probably more since burst is almost always better than sustained

steel zinc
#

yeah

hazy breach
#

DS is 3-4% behind trickster

#

Not the other way

steel zinc
#

yeah I got that

#

We also play transmitter well I guess until end of prog or? (assuming they dont nerf it)

hazy breach
#

639 transmitter sims the same as 678 house of cards

hazy breach
#

Do with that what you will

steel zinc
#

like 3%?

hazy breach
#

No lmao

#

way less

clever delta
#

So trickster is ahead in s2?

vale pine
#

yes

clever delta
#

That's good news to me

vale pine
#

trickster is ahead, and if you have a mythic transmitter you will likely not replace it any time soon

clever delta
#

Always liked it more

#

What i don't like is fuu saying that I only rupture for 25s before flag

vestal escarp
#

it's chill

clever delta
#

That will be so hilarious in logs

vestal escarp
#

once you have enough stuff to send flag comfortably you even stack up shtec

clever delta
#

Basically doing white dmg between last sod and next cds

twilit phoenix
#

sub rotation is based because you get to goon between cds

vestal escarp
#

until urgent fixes you have double chance of resetting tier at every evis

#

just chill and get to 14 sht and keep tier

clever delta
#

So cool

#

I have feeling blizzard do smg about it as they usually don't like this kind of gameplay

vestal escarp
#

yes but

#

not for sub garf_sit

vale pine
clever delta
#

I still remember when they stepped in when spamming ruptures was good as normal rotation

#

With tier set

#

So doing nothing for 25 instead doing rotation I assume won't like either

#

But who knows, season start very soon

vale pine
#

they migth nerf the tier set

hazy breach
#

They probably will

vale pine
#

so i wouldn't be too concerned yet

hazy breach
#

But even if they do and simc shows that holding is not worth it on average

#

We would probably still hold for certain mechanics coming up

vestal escarp
#

imagine nerfing tierset with not even 2M baseline

upper narwhal
#

If you hold and don't gamble your stacks, your average might be higher. But if you gamble like a degenerate your peaks can be so much better

#

keep gambling

10 stacks, sod/dance + cb

#

no dn fix either

Youre just setting yourself for anger expecting it to get fixed

Gotta fix real classes first

I mean they could fix it but just removing the tooltip of the tier saying it interacts with sectech

They will focus on rogue during lunch break 1day before season release

cant blame them really

#

imagine eating spaghetti all days all year

kind bluff
#

What exactly is the tier bug? That it doesn't effect sectech at all?

swift tinsel
#

4pc shadow amp

#

doesn't always amp

vestal escarp
#

there are a couple

#

shadow finishers contribute to resetting WS

hazy breach
#

I think that was fixed

#

Coup still counts multiple times though

#

But yes 4p doesnt amp sectech all the time

vestal escarp
#

i played ptr yesterday and finishing otuside dance was misery

lunar bluff
#

O O THE MISERY

swift tinsel
#

Did a test earlier this morning and evisc reset 24 times on 200 hits so its possible its fixed

vestal escarp
#

i got unforch garf_sit

#

all 200 were outside dance?

swift tinsel
#

yes, otherwise it would not reset

#

200 is both the phys and shadow hits

#

so 100 casts

vestal escarp
#

thats lower than tooltip tho

#

bro got lucky

man this tier is awesome

you start a coup in dance, the animation extends past dance, and you lose the buff

#

incredible

alpine wraith
#

24 out of 100 casts is still a bit sus

#

idk tier seems cooked

swift tinsel
#

yeah its 3% off both the right and wrong percents

alpine wraith
#

i mean i also did like 2 or 3 hours of sec techs and none came off split the other day

#

but it seems you can still get the bugged ones

swift tinsel
#

yeah I had one this morning

#

but its still either 2mil or like 3.8mil

alpine wraith
#

the split ones are just too rare

#

yea i meant doing one of 3.5 mil and 2 mil

swift tinsel
#

yeah I think I get like 1 every 20 or so casts

steel zinc
#

Like add 10000 casts

swift tinsel
#

if you wanna test that be our guest

#

lol

#

we did it

alpine wraith

yea everything borked still

Trickster chads stay winning I guess

alpine wraith
#

best one is they fixed it

#

then they borked it again

#

to help assa

vale pine
#

its a bit of a irony

#

because they continued to remove the part which was relevant for the fix on assa

#

neverless, lets hope for some fixes

alpine wraith

just hands up

dance dance

steel zinc

you can still use these to cope

#

pardon the newbie question. how long is it okay to sit on a secret technique to wait for a symbols of death to be up, or to wait for the next flagellation?

swift tinsel
#

typically ~20 seconds left on flag's cd is when you stop sending secret technique

tranquil garden
#

Alright, so definitely plenty of time to wait then, and be sure to always send it during a symbols?

#

(so wait for a symbols, rather than send a naked one)

hazy breach
#

Sectech should always be supercharged yes

#

And the vast majority of them should be in dance

tranquil garden
#

Thanks. This is new to me. I'm coming from Monk, where the rule is get rid of your CDs as soon as humanly possible.

hazy breach
#

Almost all classes work like that

#

But ye dont send anything when flag is about to be ready. You need to be able to cast 2 symbols, 2 dances and 2 sectechs every flag+blades window Surebud

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.
tranquil garden
#

Wait, what's the downside for macroing blood and technique? I wasn't aware there was a time you would want to use blood on anything else

hazy breach
#

You still always use it on sectech

#

Its just that if you macro it, you often end up using it outside blades and then it wont br ready for when youre in big cds

tranquil garden
#

ah, I see

hazy breach
#

Its better to exclusively use it in blades&flag

tranquil garden
#

same q as before then -- how long to hold it for? I guess 30 seconds, since that aligns it with blades and flagellation

#

damn, it's crazy for me to think of holding a cd for that long, but I guess that's the new paradigm I gotta get used to

hazy breach
#

Use it on your second sectech in blades

#

On ptr almost 75% of all of your damage is done during blades

#

Sub does almost nothing outside cds

fak, I guess I am having to figure out some more keybinds for cold blood and anything extra

#

the fuck were taking thistle tea?????????

minor aurora
#

no clue what that even is tbh, I just managed to unlock flagellation and cold blood today

twilit phoenix
#

nah we take thistle piss

swift tinsel

tea isn't good, people just think it is bc it gives energy at a time when it doesn't really matter

hybrid prism
#

i dont think ill ever take that shite talent unless its like huge gain

swift tinsel
#

its not

#

so you're clear

minor aurora
#

So for sub really, there aren’t any macros

swift tinsel
#

not really

minor aurora
#

alright, that’s more buttons to press for my high-APM brain to benefit from

swift tinsel
#

because of the way our spells and cooldowns work it doesn't really help

minor aurora
#

I can see that, yeah.

#

I’m only just now getting to the part where I have most of the spells and cooldowns to learn and use in order

#

dinged 52 before getting off for maintenance

swift tinsel
#

ah, be strong. rogue leveling is not that much fun lol

minor aurora
#

Maybe because it’s my first time EVER, and I’ve racked in 16hrs in barely 4 days (6 hours today)

#

but, I’ve been loving rogue tbh

swift tinsel
#

noice, more power to you!

minor aurora
#

I feel like getting more comfortable with my keybinds alone has made me enjoy the game so much more

swift tinsel
#

definitely a plus for sure

minor aurora
#

I’m focusing less on what to press and just paying attention to everything else

#

I’ve just been questing in legion and using the artifact weapons cause I was told it’s a decent idea

swift tinsel
#

legion is a pretty dope xpac to level through

minor aurora
#

honestly, it’s been pretty fun

swift tinsel
#

its a lot of peoples' favorite expansion

#

I took a break for most of it lol

minor aurora
#

fair enough

#

Kinda sucks I won’t be able to experience the dungeons / raids

#

because everyone is on TWW or maybe farming Dragonflight for cosmetics/mounts

swift tinsel
#

there's a Remix version of it on the horizon

#

so you'll get to experience the abridged version

minor aurora
#

huh, alright. Sounds good

swift tinsel
#

the raids are pretty awesome

hi guys i was wondering how many ruptures do we spread in a bigger pull for example in NW first pull only on prio target since we dont get any benefit like assa gets? thx

lilac stag
#

spread while tank pulls as long as they live 12 seconds. Just full send cds if everything is grouped.

random comet
#

i don't think there's a set number, it's a useful thing to do while tank is gathering so you get some damage rolling without big threat

jaunty heath
#

Yeah, like I send 1x rupture on the smallies, one on the big dude in the 3 pack and one on the gatekeeper
