mom im about to be rich

molten citrus
#

A buff?

hazy breach
#

Well ye but 7% is completely irrelevant KEKW

molten citrus
#

Oh you were asking about the stiletto

true fable
#

so its worse to have 2x depts?

alpine wraith
#

you forgot this one

molten citrus
alpine wraith
#

ENGI POG

#

oh wait

molten citrus
hazy breach
#

Not a huge fan of the depths thing either as it likely makes depths better on pure ST, while radiant is still better on aoe

#

But it makes sense

molten citrus
#

Yeah that’s a bit annoying

#

No one wants to swap enchants

alpine wraith
#

i dont like depths either

#

it has 2 layers of rng

#

at least radiant just proics

#

this one has to stack at least every x secs

#

and downtime fucks it

#

then it can crit too

#

also radiant power dmg increased 23% pog

balmy thorn
#

I'm using a macro for shadow blades, shadow dance, and symbols all in one. I do also have a separate keybind for symbols. Is this fine to do? Or should I be always separating them?

alpine wraith
#

ideally you have all those 3 separate

#

you dont really use them together

molten citrus
alpine wraith
#

not that i found

balmy thorn
#

I thought you always use shadow blades and dance together?

alpine wraith
#

you use blades after sec tech or just before

balmy thorn
#

Really? Oh ok

#

Damn I'm going to have to think of a spot for some extra binds

#

Is it ok to macro any of them together?

hazy breach
#

!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.
balmy thorn
#

Hmm even cold blood? Oh boy I'm not sure if I can play this spec if I have to relearn all this muscle memory 😭

median geode
#

For simplicity, I'd just macro cold blood in with secret technique, but you'll definitely waste a cold blood use on an eviscerate or something at some point

#

Definitely have different keybinds for dance, symbols, flag, and shadow blades though

tepid trellis
#

you can still macro it to sectech, ideally you just have 2 sectech binds

#

one with CB and one without

balmy thorn
molten citrus
median geode
#

Yeah you'd do something like
#showtooltip Secret Technique
/cast Cold Blood
/cast Secret Technique

molten citrus
#

CB is an off gcd so it’ll fire off whether your sec tech gcd does or not

median geode
#

That's the downside ^

molten citrus
#

Not a common issue usually

tepid trellis
#

mostly happens with Shuriken Tornado

hazy breach

holy shit

notes

#

they nerfed 4p :(

#

but aura buffs xd

kind edge
#

OMG

#

Go check the tunning

#

Big good news

spice matrix
#

looks like a sub tier

kind edge
#

This just made my day

tidal copper
#

Wasn’t it already a Sub tier?

open vortex
#

We were mentioned in patch notes

#

We take that as a win

hazy breach
lucid jackal
#

10% BUFF

kind edge
hazy breach
#

Ye but the tier set got gutted

lucid jackal
#

We used to pray for times like this

spice matrix
#

as expected

kind edge
hazy breach
#

Ye it makes sense

#

Probably a slight gain overall

#

But massive nerf to our burst

open vortex
#

Hopefully this means less playing around the stacks?

kind edge
#

Overall > burst. Imo

hazy breach
spice matrix
open vortex
#

I would take the burst 10/10 times

hazy breach
#

Not sure why rupture got a 6% dmg buff

#

seems random as hell

worthy pulsar
#

does this means, less feeling bad if stacks gone, but overall better dps?

open vortex
#

They saw we were spamming it so much

kind edge
#

Because in low keys, the burst will be good. In high keys when the mobs got much more hp, burst stills good but then we want consistence.

solar geode
#

i think this is probably a good change in terms of design

spice matrix
solar geode
#

because not pressing evicerate for 25 seconds or whatever it was sounds and probably feels stupid

tribal blade
#

YO trickster buffs???

hazy breach
balmy thorn
#

Does the nimble flurry change mean that we won't be pressing black powder in aoe? Or is the target count just changed?

hazy breach
#

Prob just moves the target count up a bit

balmy thorn
#

What is it currently?

spice matrix
#

Blizz saw the Bellular vid and clapped back

radiant hedge
#

Gutting tierset = not spamming snd for 25s

hazy breach
tribal blade
hazy breach
#

If an add spawns you need to burst down or you wipe

#

You would hold

#

If youre fighting a mob in m+ with 5% health left right before a big pack

#

You would hold

worthy pulsar
#

damn this edging playstyle

radiant hedge
#

Sure, but doing it rotationaly for 1/3rd of your rotation is just bad class design. Having it be a niche use case thing is interesting.

spice matrix
#

tempest sham kinda just did the same thing Shrugeg

#

edged to the sun

hazy breach
limber folio
#

so

tribal blade
#

so more nimble damage and more UB hits= more cdr means sub is gonna be banging in aoe

limber folio
#

sub lost a lot on the 4P right

tribal blade
#

i'm down for these kinds of changes, makes it healthier

hazy breach
#

Expected and healthier overall, but im still a bit sad

#

I wanted enormous bonks Sadge

#

Now we only get large bonks

tribal blade
#

yeah it's a bit less sexy

knotty mango
#

yeah they were never letting a tier set with that much value go live

#

spriest got the same treatment

rose pond
#

So is this a big nerf or a buff in the end for Sub?

solar geode
#

buff methinks

bleak night
#

rip bonk

hazy breach
#

My comments that is

solar geode
#

its not about the tier... its about sending a message....

tepid trellis

Unsure why udk got buffed PogO

But I was vibing pressing rupture for 30 sec

I would be surprised if its a nerf

tepid trellis

Pretty sure it’s either equal or buff

swift tinsel

10% aura buff

hazy breach
#

But i dont think its a huge buff

swift tinsel
#

Nice

tepid trellis

Trickster got some good buffs

Hopefully it makes trickster still playable

ds so much more fun and awesome

solar geode

the passive cleave is pretty cool i think :D

the surprising strikes buff is.. surprising

fickle mason

is it overall nerf?

tribal blade

that's a big number

strong drift

DS can suck a fart

tepid trellis
solemn creek
#

they took away power from the 4p. so its a gain OMEGAKEKW

#

they couldnt fix secret technique 4p bug,

fickle mason
#

i thought 4p was like 27% so wouldnt 6 to 2 percent be huge?

hazy breach
hazy breach
#

Not all of it is the shadow amp

frigid latch
#

hey, just saw the changes, tldr? seems like this changes gravitate towards trickster being even better pure st now? since 4p big nerf seems like and trickster overall buffs?

#

anyone ran the numbers?

solar geode

numbers are being ran currently i think

mm so rotten is def better than 1 finality now right

as long as it's not an outlaw tier so i don't need to unsub

an outlaw tier would be beautiful but

so sub is dead ?

#

never be S tier...

molten citrus
#

sub is never dead

pliant topaz
#

just saw the changes, kinda what i expected. probably revert back to same build we run now, same exact playstyle. since burst is kinda turbo nerfed, probably transmitter slightly weaker too is my guess. gg have fun lads!

tepid trellis
#

Dead. Gone. Erased

pliant topaz
#

so is it joever? or are we barak

#

my guess is sligh overall nerf

tepid trellis
#

Idfk OMEGAKEKW

worn ivy
#

They should immedietly delete LFG groups for M+ or capped it to +15,

broken shadow
#

i just say "its over" or somethign to that effect in literally every class discord

#

its pretty fun actually

pliant topaz
#

would be curious how 2x finality db does. rupture damage a lot higher, damage in cds a lot lower

ok fury catching 5% overall is actually hilarious

the suspense is killing me

tepid trellis

Think with some APL tinkering I think it should about break even

tribal blade
#

waiting for "hold up, this ends up being an overall buff"

pliant topaz
#

just napkin mth says its a tiny tiny nerf

#

probbly revert to old apl and its almost just flattening the burst

Waiting for the gif Eleem posted to be bait

Changes for 25/2

https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/additional-class-updates-for-undermined/562776/1
A massive nerf to our tierset (which was overtuned so it was expected) and baseline buffs to compensate. However going of initial sims it seems like these buffs are not enough. After some tinkering with the sim we are roughly back to the same simdps we had before these changes. Its worth noting though that part of this is due to enchants being buffed, so we wouldve had slightly more dps had these changes not gone through.

  • Singletarget: -1% overall simdps
    • Peak burst down about 15%
    • Trickster still ahead of deathstalker by like +3%.
  • Aoe: ~+1%
    • Both hero talents seem solid, would recommend trickster though.

Overall: Numbers look roughly the same, but burst is smaller, which is understandable but a shame. Based on sims alone sub seems to currently be solidly middle of the pack, but sims do not necessarily represent real boss fights

i dont understand how people enjoying assa

errant tinsel

its like 2x finality db was like what 3.5% behind? 6% more ruptuure damage is a pretty big deal, considering tier further buffs rupture in dance too if db

Poor Dave never stood a chance

ive legit 0 respect people playing assa

wtf

swift tinsel

Will wait to full doom until I get home

they should remove assassination rogue and replace it with something fun like ranged or 2h

alpine wraith

they really increased builder dmg

#

and unseen

#

ahahaha

tribal blade
#

finisher spec needs more builder damage

#

frfr ong

#

but i guess this means trickster gains more prio damage

alpine wraith
#

the absolute clownage

swift tinsel
#

Increased rupture damage even though we’re probably not doing that anymore lol

alpine wraith
#

also thx blizz

#

thx for all the info

fallow nimbus
#

Where buff indicator?

tepid trellis
#

Probably just 1 more rppm

alpine wraith
#

reset happened? who knows

tepid trellis
#

So now it lines up out of dance more

alpine wraith
#

now enjoy wasting even more coups

uneven scarab
#

man this is so mid

worn ivy
#

Surprising Strikes critical damage bonus increased to 50% (was 25%).

fallow nimbus

Storm should proc unseen if we can't have a buff that unseen is ready

Cya guys in a week when they realized their math wasn’t matching and they buff our dog ass baseline again

next patch: rogue gets an aura buff; all rogue within party does 10% more damage

hazy breach
#

Realistically were still gonna be doing some of the highest burst in the game

tepid trellis
#

Nah just nerf us again

hazy breach
#

But i wouldve liked the nuclear cooldowns

tepid trellis
#

We clearly do too much

rugged condor
#

is this looking like a raid buff tier. all the specs dont seem happy lol

tepid trellis
#

Nerf a spec that sims 25% less than bm

kind edge
tepid trellis
#

And somehow we almost get the same nerf they did

hazy breach
#

On the ptr

#

But also i prefer that

hazy breach
#

Thats what sub is about to me, stacking cooldowns for big burst

#

Not doing more damage with backstab procs out of dance

probably they were trying to balance out tier set i believe another buff would come

hazy breach

#

oh, duh haha

#

ty

heady dragon
rocky mortar
#

and trickster also AoE splashes it anyway

heady dragon
# hazy breach What?

"i should do more dmg cus NO UTILITY if you ignore my utility skills"

the normal m+ utility brainrot lol

rocky mortar
hazy breach
#

By that logic rogue has no utility either

heady dragon
#

^

brisk onyx
#

Fuck you BZ

paper iron
#

what is utility nowadays?

rocky mortar
#

rogues utility is fairly limited outside keys. and even then it kind of needs some odd pathing to enable it.

paper iron
#

A strong raid buff and ton of aoe cc?

heady dragon
#

i wanna know it now

rocky mortar
#

now days, it's a lot of AoE cc's and highly valuable raid buffs. so aug evoker, mark of the wild, high amounts of interrupts and party survivability tools

#

nothing rogue has

#

blind even AoE is a pain to use well

rocky mortar
#

without shroud being an impactful thing. and even then that's usually not defining

#

assass with iron wire is probably the most valuable utility of rogue specs (imo).

paper iron
#

u guys have cheapshot, dont u like spamming it ? Kappa

hazy breach
#

Speed shroud def undervalued

paper iron
#

rogue is king of crowd control am i right? Kappa

charred ivy
#

yea like 8 gcd in every dance cuz its cheap

paper iron
rocky mortar
paper iron
#

to be dead honest, clutch distracts are our utility

rocky mortar
hazy breach
#

In a dungeon like grim batol the amount of time saved by speed shroud is very noticeable

#

Not using it for any form of stealth, just purely for the speed

rocky mortar
#

and can offset some of the more dangerous casts early on in a pull with a few back to back silences on core targets while the pull gets settled

this aint about balance tuning

only times you will see me mad abl

about* tuning changes is when they change stuff back to builder BS dmg

#

fuck that shit

rocky mortar
#

yaa. bs dmg isn't so much sub i agree. though I also wouldn't be happy waiting 30s and casting ruptures while waiting for my 1.5m sequence either so theirs that

heady dragon
#

TWW is just WILD with patchnotes

like, remember raid launch, fury warrior strong and they blanket nerf stuff for arms aswell for no reason

#

like, what the hell

hazy breach
tepid trellis
#

its an issue of spec direction, nobody that actively plays sub wants it to be builder dmg

hazy breach
#

And youre still gonna end up doing it a lot of the time

tepid trellis
#

so why the fuck dos that keep happening?

hazy breach
#

Because when an important add is spawning

#

That needs to be bursted down

#

Youre gonna want to have full stacks

#

Same in m+ at the end of a pack

#

It doesnt really change

#

In fact its still net neutral to do the holding in simc even after the tier nerfs

charred ivy
#

i mean " Very silly high number, expecting a nerf but otherwise this is an absolute requirement to get as soon as humanly possible." this comment is also overrated damage should come somewhere its either the tier or the giga trinket like transmitter only concern can be leaving other token classes in shadow but i dont think so getting 4p is a big deal these days anyway

sad...

jaunty heath
#

our tier set on paper just looks bad.

who gets excited about "2%"

very uninspiring to play

rocky mortar
#

but at least it's pretty clear where sub is likely to land for the season. if a 10% buff is all we got to offset that large of a nerf.

A gameplay change away from pressing nothing but evis for the first time in 20 years? Nooo Cryge

Lmao true

uneven scarab
#

Pretty much already did that anyway

jaunty heath
#

it didnt FEEL good, but the dmg was actually worth it

rocky mortar
# edgy zenith this is a net nerf?

the 4 piece was a massive tier set. of like 30% or something of the like on it's own. cutting that by 2/3 in addition to other nerfs. is far more than a 10% aura buff

uneven scarab
tribal blade
#

spamming rupture before flag sounds bad on paper until you realize how little we do outside of cds

and you can think of it like investing in your big burst

wait, trickster was simming higher than DS on ST?

well now your random ass unseens will do more dmg

also double goremaw buff

now if only it cleaved actually havent checked let me see

thought it was only coup

maybe they fixed

idk if i should be concerned or not going into this season

do i really do this to myself, get out of bed test tier bugs

is there a rotation guide anywhere that's updated to what its gonna look like next patch?

oh, okay

so still trickster and same priority and everything?

by the looks of it

okay thanks ^^

#

Is the rupture buff good for us too?

hazy breach
#

It works for us yes

#

Not as bad as I anticipated. I assume more changes will come over the next few weeks like always

brisk onyx
#

4p bug seem fixed

#

maybe

hazy breach
#

Ye probably

#

Coup still not

haughty mural
#

finally nerfed us -

#

I just wish we had some gameplay changes

haughty mural
edgy zenith
#

wait what is coup bug?

acoustic lodge
#

Sucks, to play the same thing for another six-eight months

edgy zenith
#

ew coup bug is rough

hazy breach
#

Love it when you press coup last gcd of the first dance in blades

#

And since you cant spellqueue dances

#

Youre gonna leave a small little gap

#

And thats when the last tick of coup is gonna come in

#

And make you lose your stacks

brisk onyx
#

Surprising Strikes critical damage bonus increased to 50% (was 25%).

#

Will this make us choose rotten again?

hazy breach
#

Eviscerates doing 30% less damage from tier is the more likely culprit

#

But yes probably

alpine wraith

well actually if you rupture more

#

maybe

unseen does count as a builder somewhat

so it gets the crit dmg

then it cleaves

Does anyone know what spec I should grief withplay in week 1 M+ spam

alpine wraith
#

but yea i mean they might still run 1

tepid trellis
alpine wraith
#

for prog atro is decent

#

but oh boi are we behind in dam

hazy breach
#

And same thing when a pack is low in m+ right before a big pull

#

Practically nothing changed, the design of the tier is the same

lilac stag
#

Why can’t we have nice things?

hazy breach
#

Now its just +-0% on ST instead of a slight gain to hold in simc

lilac stag
#

Who did we actually piss off?

sick jackal
#

did we get any bugfixes?

lilac stag
#

Don’t need to fix it if you gut it

tepid trellis
#

sectech seems fixed

#

coup munching not

swift tinsel
#

doing 2.8mil instead of 2.2?

Still punish us

tepid trellis
#

anyways bedge time, see you guys on tuesday when they will buff shadowstrike and backstacb by 20%

alpine wraith
#

take care

lilac stag
#

I willed the CT buff into existence for assa. Didn’t get the BP buff for us. Sorry I failed.

alpine wraith
#

man imagine dropping one video and just next morning this comes on and shakes things now we gotta do one with an ukele crying

alpine wraith
#

hey assa rupture also got buffed

hazy breach
tepid trellis
#

those numbers are too big

#

they would never be that nice to us

alpine wraith
#

you mean little

#

plague damage increased by 130%

#

evis nerfed 20%

2.6-3.3mil sectechs, oof

tepid trellis

couldve been 5mil

#

dont forget what they have taken away from you

swift tinsel
#

just the shadow hits

tepid trellis
#

gone before it even had a chance to bloom

hazy breach
#

Now assa's peak envenom crits are gonna do more damage than our peak sectechs

honest saddle
#

I had 7 mill sec tech on ptr I think I recall

lilac stag
#

I guess the fotm will clear out by Sunday.

lilac stag

#

Should still be solid in m+

swift tinsel
lilac stag
#

do you have it uploaded someplace with a link?

swift tinsel
#

umm I probably can

lilac stag
#

Can we sticker it @hazy breach

swift tinsel
#

I'll make a giphy acct quick

#

or can you right-click and save the link from the one that's here

hazy breach
#

All my overrides looked correct but clearly something was missing because now that the PTR data is in simc its more like a 2.5-3% nerf rather than 5%. Ill update the pin, but we'll probably find some extra percentages somewhere so its not gonna end up being that bad. Just burst 📉

Incase you didnt sleep yet

Damn wtf you got chatgpt plus or something that's way better

hazy breach
#

And we havent pushed any APL for ptr yet so for example your previous sim wasnt holding the stacks etc

sly shore
honest saddle
#

is holding stacks even a thing anymore

#

i'll leave that up to you

#

but I doubt

sly shore
#

This class is just a bit of a laugh isn't it

swift tinsel
#

the Ion Cannon was aimed at us but they pulled the trigger a bit too hard

brisk onyx
honest saddle
#

RIP Finality

#

we knew ye not

honest saddle
swift tinsel
#

just a casual 66% nerf to our 4pc

#

def not kneejerk

swift tinsel
#

surely 6% rupture damage will make up for it

lilac stag
#

Why they gotta pee on the Dave’s rug?

swift tinsel
#

since we were gonna cast 2 extra every 1.5mins

#

He must have done something to John Blizzard's couch

honest saddle
#

I mean with tier nerfed 66%, the chances that we rupture spam to keep stacks is probably gone

#

I wonder if they saw that gameplay loop and said NOPE

lilac stag
#

They’re just throwing darts at the wall

swift tinsel
#

Really hope for a pullback on monday

sly shore
#

Gl

swift tinsel

or with tuesday patch notes

#

I have zero faith they actually will

BP buffs

if I see BP buffs I will drive to Irvine

sly shore

It's just confusing

honest saddle
#

you wont have to. I will fucking fly you myself

swift tinsel
#

its only 3/4 of the way across the country

sly shore
#

It really is confusing

swift tinsel
#

it is

#

its extremely out of touch

#

comically so

sly shore
#

This class really is being kicked whilst it's down, isn't it

honest saddle
#

I think for the first time in a long time, sub rogues were really excited about this tier

swift tinsel
#

They saw we had one hand reaching up

honest saddle
#

with burst

swift tinsel
#

and had to chop it off

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

We're a finisher spec.

#

Our mastery exclusively buffs finishers.

#

we do all of our damage with finishers in cooldowns.

brisk onyx

More like finished spec.

#

my favorite part about playing subtlety is being 5 minutes late back after break and then saying "kept you waiting huh"

swift tinsel
#

my legacy is secured

#

End of the day I'm still gonna play sub but man, this is annoying

#

maybe draw up a lengthy "but why God why?" post on the forums

sly shore
#

The assa changes are even stranger than the sub rogue ones

brisk onyx
#

what? are you kidding me

honest saddle
#

I mean I think the assassin changes make sense IF the idea is to make sin weak st and make sin the aoe spec

sly shore
#

Na that spec is also being bullied

#

It's just as bad

swift tinsel
#

just give them 40% agi from Scent

honest saddle
#

whispyr on sin changes

brisk onyx
#

aimless

#

i like this

swift tinsel
#

yeah after actually reading sin changes I'm genuinely confused too

#

its like they blind picked talents

tribal blade
#

i read the sin changes and was genuinely confused

swift tinsel
#

and said "what if we did something that no one asked for and makes no sense as far as the spec is concerned"

honest saddle
#

ok ok ok, let me cope

swift tinsel
#

what the fuck is happening to our class lmfao

lilac stag
honest saddle
#

if were still really good on logs compared to other classes

#

are we happy?

sly shore

No

They buff pirate flurry even though the core of the hero tree is butt

I mean I dont think any of us thought a 4pc that did 33% of our damage was gonna make it

#

but to go 66% nerf

#

WHAT THE FUCK

With ion hazzikostas

#

there's some supper clubs here that have incredible fish n chips

#

or like a friday night all you can eat fish fry

#

Wisconsin has some gems

spark tusk

#

i'm guessing they're trying to make sin have more ST dam in keys

sly shore
#

Yeah by buffing their aor

#

Aoe

swift tinsel
#

My brain is too fried from sending sectech's hoping against hope that I won't have any split damage events of buffed and unbuffed from the same cast

sly shore
tribal blade
#

so increasing areterial precision makes them able to go down more ST path?

#

i dunno

sly shore
#

Then buffing sudden demise

#

Batchest

lol right

also I'm pretty sure I've checked over a thousand FW eviscerates trying to see if they've fixed SF reset

I literally do all my own prospecting and crushing bc I haven't built the goblin base

Reading the first sentence of rogue tuning was great

I should have stopped there

swift tinsel

I go mining for therapy so I only ever prospect the r3 ores I gather myself

started in Scholazar Basin farming saronite in wotlk and never looked back

swift tinsel
#

sometimes cobalt in Zuldrak

swift tinsel
#

elementium in twilight highlands, obsidian ore in hyjal

spark tusk
#

They're sometimes ok to buy to prospect too

swift tinsel

Did some herb farming in Vashjir the other night for the first time in like 12 years

Sometimes not

#

am i seeing this correctly on the pin that we lost dps even with the flat % buff omE

chrome palm
#

What’s worse, it’s a loss to peak burst which is the primary reason for bringing sub in the first place pepehands

alpine wraith
#

we lost quite a bit of burst

chrome palm
#

It also makes transmitter less valuable in comparison to house of cards

#

This is our punishment for complaining about doing the transmitter mini game

swift tinsel
#

This season is shaping up to feel pretty forgettable

#

As in I’m going to mentally block it out

#

Watching Whispyr’s recent vid and the only gist I’m getting across the board is that everything from trinkets to gear and tuning is just thrown together

pliant topaz
#

🙂

swift tinsel
#

Like I wanna hear the reasoning lol

pliant topaz
#

🔮

swift tinsel
#

That’s honestly probably how they made these decisions

kind bluff
#

i was so hyped to

swift tinsel
#

Hopped on ptr to play with the changes and they feel like absolute whole ass

celest iron
#

are we back

swift tinsel
#

Gonna put in just enough effort to keep my raid spot and play with friends

chrome palm
#

currently over check again next week

swift tinsel
#

Idk maybe it’s my last season lol

plain zodiac
#

if rogue is as ass as your saying u might be best of finding some warriors for dps buff lmao

sick jackal
#

the design is bad atm

plain zodiac
#

tbf i dont even agree

sick jackal
#

reward players for not pressing evis just to not drop tier stacks is just bad design atm

plain zodiac
#

oh on ptr u mean

#

mb

sick jackal
plain zodiac
#

what do you press instead?

#

bp?

sick jackal
#

rupture

#

for 25 secs just cdr

#

or snd

#

or how deathstalker works trying to avoid our capstone talent

plain zodiac
#

O_ o no gusta

molten citrus
sick jackal
#

idc how much dmg we do the playstyle feels bad atm

sick jackal
molten citrus
#

if you say so

sick jackal
#

imo at least

steel horizon
#

After these set of tuning thats probably not a thing yeah. They nerfed tier big time

molten citrus
#

the nerf makes it not a thing anymore

#

unless you're in a nuanced situation where you want to sace stacks, then you can still do it

plain zodiac
#

The last time i saw casualaddict play sub on ptr i cant remember he pressed snd / rupture over evis tho and his dmg was really goo

#

good*

molten citrus
#

like before a damage amp phase or end of a pack

tribal blade
#

so he had perma 10 stacks

#

wouldn't read too much into that

plain zodiac
#

oh thats why ty

molten citrus
#

not everyone testing on ptr was doing everything correctly either

tribal blade
#

yeah sub was hard gapping everyone when tier wasn't resetting

molten citrus
#

running wrong talents, using a rotation that wasn't necessarily min maxed etc

fathom gazelle
#

is it RiP for sub?

plain zodiac
#

but pls tell me whether shuriken storm is a thing now or not

molten citrus
#

wdym

tribal blade
#

you mean nado?

plain zodiac
#

he played it

molten citrus
#

no

tribal blade
#

i wouldn't

#

no need to

plain zodiac
#

me personally im no big fan of that

molten citrus
#

nado is ass

plain zodiac
#

on low key maybe

steel horizon
#

Well at least RS bug is being fixed 🙃

tribal blade
#

nah you just pick up TFD

plain zodiac
#

when i have -1 rupture value

tribal blade
#

or premed, i forget which talent they're dropping for nado

plain zodiac
#

Replicating Shadows ig

tribal blade
#

nah dropping that really bad in M+

#

and they fixed the bug with that talent

plain zodiac
#

if mobs dont live very longi dont see much value in rupture being 20% stronger etc.

swift tinsel
#

Veiltouched for Nado iirc

tribal blade
#

that's not it's value, it's value comes from spreading rupture

plain zodiac
#

to a dead target ?

tribal blade
#

and rupture spreading gains value the higher in key level you go

#

you also lose a bunch of cleave damage

honest saddle
#

most packs in 12-13-14 keys live a full rupture

plain zodiac
#

true dat but in low keys im not running that im playing nado having the time of my life

honest saddle
#

it gets value

tribal blade
#

i would still run RS in lower keys

plain zodiac
#

Rn im playing 14 and rupture is a big gain

honest saddle
#

yeah?

tribal blade
#

TFD better in M+

honest saddle
#

yeah good shout

plain zodiac
#

what are wm and tfd?

honest saddle
#

the first dance

swift tinsel
#

Weaponmaster and the first dance

clever delta
#

Are we outlaw now

swift tinsel
#

Tfd also beats wm in st lol

#

At certain fight lengths

plain zodiac
#

I didnt wanna take it bcs i tell mytanks i dont need restealth lmao

tribal blade
#

iirc eleem said WM overtakes TFD at like 3:50 or higher ST fight length

plain zodiac
#

1 reason i stopped assa and now i have to do it again ?= :/

tribal blade
#

i can't remember the exact number

molten citrus
#

even on assa

honest saddle
#

its 4 seconds on one dance

molten citrus
#

proper chain pulling is better for damage and timing the key

swift tinsel
plain zodiac
swift tinsel
#

Sounds right, tfd is .4% ahead at 3min

tribal blade
swift tinsel
#

And .6% behind at 5

#

Even like four or five tfd in a whole dungeon is a gain

tribal blade
#

having TFD active on a pull is such a big gain over having WM in big M+ pulls

plain zodiac
#

But when you drop weaponmaster doesnt that affext aoe prio ? with what you want to generate combo points?

swift tinsel
#

Nah wm is kinda ass

tribal blade
#

well not huge gain, but bigger than what WM gives

swift tinsel
#

You still pretty much only strike and storm

#

And bs for flawless

tribal blade
#

hits from WM don't apply to nimble iirc

swift tinsel
#

And wm doesn’t flurry

tribal blade
#

which is why WM sucks in aoe

plain zodiac
#

I was thinking shuriken storm bcs worth it to press even on below 5 targets because of macabre buff

swift tinsel
#

Nope that bug atill exists even on ptr

plain zodiac
swift tinsel
#

You don’t play around macabre

swift tinsel
#

Not worth

tribal blade
#

on trickster

plain zodiac
#

ill try TFD now ty for your guys input

swift tinsel
#

Wm is just another talent that found its way into our tree without having a good reason to be there

plain zodiac
#

lmao

swift tinsel
#

Which describes like 60% of our spec tree

plain zodiac
#

i thought they wanted sub to be better thats why we got trickster in the first place lmao

#

bcs now we can evis in aoe so we are way better

swift tinsel
#

BP is tuned high enough where evisc isn’t that great

#

In aoe

tribal blade
#

if you think about it you're extending your first dance in cds with TFD by 50%

swift tinsel
#

Even for trickster

plain zodiac
#

but you still dont play around macabre even if your SD is longer from TFD?

tribal blade
#

that's an extra 4 seconds of a fully ramped dance

#

which is a lot

plain zodiac
#

not always about the dps tho sometimes i still press evis for prio dps

plain zodiac
#

cuz you keep that macabre buff longer its maybe worth to sac a global

swift tinsel
#

Nah not really

molten citrus
#

?

plain zodiac
#

are there sims for that or just a trust me bro kind of thing

molten citrus
#

you do storm once for danse

tribal blade
#

the 1 storm you cast is purely to apply FW to all targets

plain zodiac
tribal blade
#

that's the problem with trickster that rotten fixes

swift tinsel
#

^

tribal blade
swift tinsel
#

Yeah it’s more a byproduct

molten citrus
#

the wowhead guide is a wee bit scuffed then or

tribal blade
#

might be yeah

#

not sure, i haven't looked at it in a while haha

plain zodiac
swift tinsel
#

P sure it’s also why BS in dance isn’t a thing anymore too

molten citrus
#

it says to take WM and to storm once for DM on 5+

molten citrus
#

mostly on miniscule shit

#

that wouldn't matter either way
