thats not bad
I think it's 6? 10 gilded per, iirc.
Could be
I only saw the old list which started gilded at +8
And that had 12 for +8
Maybe they scaled +7 to 10, yeah
I think that's what I recall when I worked it out. It's like 5 10's or 6 7's for a Mythic craft
They scaled everything up, but also made non vault keys more attractive to run
Yeah
A 7 is a current 9
7's seem like they'll be a sweet spot
Yes, 90
@alpine wraith what do you think? When will be the maintenance window for EU?
But still 60 for the craft?
what would you do in the folling situation during aoe in m+. You use your 2 dances on pull + blades and flag. Use 2 charges of dance in between your blades. Now i am there with like 30/40 seconds left on blades/flag and building back dance charges with just storm -> bp (or rupture if it lives that long), but my sectec gets off cd. Do you let it sit for the big burst or use only a symbol + sectec?
thats weathered
Its 60 for the mythic craft
I mean you're supposed to be using it as soon as you can so it fits into transmitter
k
So yeah
Yeah
last time it was up at like 7 am but who knows
we could get the NA treatment
We could, but hopefully not
I want to roll outta bed, do dailies, slam the raid, have a despair session, win prizes.
unless you need the player power I wouldnt craft first week
I would just wait for my vault
I would pretend in the first week there is nothing and just send it then after your first raid 2nd week
Yeah, that's a very individualised topic
If your guild doesn't even go for mythic first week
Might as well craft the dagger imo, but even that is very subjective
if you're on a raid team i would ask your RL what the best thing to do is
(i'm taking for granted you have a RL with a brain)
can you piut a emebel on a non crafted weapon
or is focus lens confirmed bis
Crafting the hc dagger makes the most sense
Can always use as oh and u get a quick boost for m+ and raid
I think
I mean most of us can just recraft our old dagger
Its embellishments, they cant possibly be important
they didnt get buffed?
No
noticed my focus lens was doing nothjin
Theyre worth like 10 ilvl on bracers
Do you guys just send cooldowns?
for world content
On quest mobs
i did all of new zone shit in outlaw and it made it not so bad
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
yes
subs gunna feel aids everywhere but raid prog i think (rogue noob)
well it's a good thing world content isn't that important 😉
if you really wanna have a better sub experience in open world can swap to DS
i mean
i always just use one sod
and its enough to kill the mobs
to be completely fair i never tried outlaw for random outdoor content
yeah doesnt sound like a bad idea
as a little refreshener
after my friend was torturing me with teaching me assa rotation
Sin is good in world- outlaw u have to change weeps
will be for abit
delves and such
i still have some 1h heroics for outlaw
a good month then its m+ and raid loggin
from s1
oh delves are instanced content
and stuff doesn't die instantly in delves
Do we thi k they will nerf transmitter again soon. Then what do we do?
switch to sub for bosses def
but i think outlaw will gap sub in delves up until final boss
Maybe we gets a little buffy to compensate
Lol
Sub feels great in delves
how
I liked it now that the dwarf can be a tank
hook is so fast
why delete when u can hook and vanish and stealth around
maybe this is a gear thing, i just literally walk through delves and delete everything
iv done 2 of the new zone delves at level 11 in outlaw and it seemed fine
but theyre getting buffed next week so idk
0 issues
With sub u can hit 5m aoe just round up and delete 4 packs at any lvl
Then get a sandwich come back
More experience I have no idea what to do once I’m outside of opener rotation
this is cool
Just stand there
kinda
endless apm with outlaw, shit dps but fun for delve awefulness
and the world questing we prob have to do
Dps isnt the issue with outlaw - its ks uptime and mob cap
I just use the assassination bleed build for open world stuff
what is ks
Killing spree
kil lspree
yo king can u dm me this wa also
Is there a world in which we don't craft a dagger day 1?
no
Do you use your gigacrests to max that?
you could farm m+ like a madman or maybe get a mythic one
just 1?
I mean you can make 2 but you need 2 sparks
but then you would need to use crests to upgrade the hc one
instead of using those crests for other items
idk 100 or 200
It's not that many
i meant if theres different dagger options
or ifts just 1 "everforged dagger" type thing
this season
but keep in mind
even if you drop the dagger you need to use crests on it
instead of other gear
You need to do like 6x+7
so same thing
Yeah that's my plan
wait abit and see whaty u get
Craft a dagger when I get the crest
There are 3 daggers: One baseline with agility that you can put embellishments on, one baseline with intellect (which is obviously horrid for rogues) and one thats a special embellished item that sucks real bad
Don't want to waste m+ time running campaign
I think craft the hc dagger don’t upgrade it, craft myth dagger and upgrade it
Cant upgrade crafted items
finishing the campaign gives hc crest?
Yessir
Jk just craft hc then myth
Crafted items are set ilevels.
do that morning of the 2nd day maybe
But that's 658 if I'm not mistaken
Yea I’m forget
It has in the past yes, but were not entirely sure if we'll be able to finish all of the campaign next week
It was weird with Ansurek, after all
Hopefully it’s kill gallywiz in scenario
Yes, that's typically where the free crest comes form. It is meant to have a solo mode but it's up in the air if that'll be live on reset, or if the kill raid boss will be even active. Ansurek took a week to show up.
ah yes
Someone linked the and it’s in wow head font so it must be true
i aint wakin up and loiggin in for some campaign
depends when my tank gets on ig
so craft dagger and what else
or wait and see
daggger and x
!oh
Shadow Techniques is not normalized and this makes a slow weapon (axe/sword/mace/fist) in offhand significantly weaker and almost never worth equiping.
you always want to use a dagger
i need to read the wowhead guide
*2 daggers
craft 2 daggers first?
OH doesn't do much for damage. It's more of a statstick. so not really that important.
no
You also can't craft another item for two weeks after the first spark anyway
no you craft one at rank 4 then craft r5 and can upgrade the offhand with 0 crests
So better to just wait and see.
oh yes
gotta remeber how easy it is now compared to early s1
with crests and stuff
It's more or less the same.
no transmitter how cooked am i 💀
Live in a happy world of not having to experince the dumb minigame and get better trinkets happily in S2.
The blessed existence.
i thought sub feels easiest cause u have downtime waiting for cds
different for other melee who always have to be hard pressing boss
Now u have to come crawling back
we can spend a few seconds finding a ball amonst the chaos
better trinkets in question
Some people like high apm. It’s like playing ranged u fall asleep

Kezan got nerfed iirc, and if you don't have transmitter you've probably got a lot of options
there is no other 1.5 min
i WILL be getting the goon squad
apart from hoc
Blessed.
eye isnt bis anymore
real?
But yeah, I'll never get a myth house of cards so I'll kind of have to evaluate trinkets as i go
as someone without a transmitter
goon squad is bis
they called me the goon squad in high school
knife?
Best news all day
was my daily driver all s1 in m+ cos the db trinket never myth track dropped from vaullt
i'm running myth sac + hero anub'ikkaj rn
this has seen some shit
How is skarydn not good is my question
2min
Hate
xd
That's basically it,r eally
dont line up
It becomes a 3min trinket basically
cti capping
for what
for 2 min boss fights
ah
and m+
We can only play for a myth track ritual knife
Has wow said anything about upgrading old items ?
You cant
you can't and it's intended
dude I saw that ritual knife 10000 times in vault no problem
youl be dong 8 delves a week until it drops
you can't get myth items from delves no?
i got it early thank god
Nope
Realistically theres like 8 trinkets that are all "bis"
BEST NEWS. ALL DAY
and then house of cards
it was 2nd bis to mytch track db crytal
Most trinkets sim pretty much the same
Hell yeah
So nothing really matters
That rules.
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
the real BiS is the friends we made along the way
Don't forget the change to Maps in S2 means you can, realistically, only have one chance at a hero knife drop in a Delve a week. And then it's vault praying.
what change to maps
oh ffs
One a week.
Ah
They could drop in a non-bountiful too. Just rare.
But it’s still only hero track
But I assume this means they are more likely to drop for people, but also one a week maximum.
the knife is quite competitive, even on heroic track
Some people didn't get any. Some got +10
Are there any great m+ trinkets for sub?
bomb from floodgate is good
Am I blind or is it really not an option to add a glow to your element in conditions? I only find the option to glow an external element.
It's a very good static trinket, yep.
cloaking the debuff is kinda int imo
ye. It's pretty w/e.
esp as it can roll haste. who cares.
altho with assa and if the trinket debuffed ur vers and ur vers was 2k
u had negative verse and couild easily die
might not bbe as bad with sub
I like to think that there's better uses for my defensive than getting rid of the knive debuff for < 30% of its duration
Yeah I don't think it remotely matters.
At higher key levels you'd want the defensive and at lower it's not going to matter imo.
big dam is fun
@alpine wraith thank you for your updated shorter video guide! Looking forward to your longer video release soon!
!macros
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.
hello quick question.
when i use vanish in my opener, it is not ready when flag comes up again, should i wait for vanish or still flag without vanish?
Skip the vanish and the eviscerate
np tbh not much changes from last season si
the longer one is for also gearing etc from 0 so likely you can skip it if you already know the spec
sry to butt in but quick QoL question, is anyone macroing symbols into their shadow blades, or symbols into their dance or are yall just playin the piano frfr?
It’s a dps loss to macro them together
I macro trinket to blades, other than that it's full piano mode
even though rotationally were always putting symbols with dance?
we are not
But need a dry sec tec to do before the cb sec tec
second dance in cds does not use symbols together
that... actually explains a lot
About how much is theoretical max mastery from flag assumin perfect execution??
It caps at 30 stacks, which is really easy and fast to get
Thanks! Never paid attention to how it works tbh
I'm a simple man, i press buttons
If I assume mastery from flag ignores DR, am I correct in my assumption?
still don't get how DR would apply differently?
a stat gets relatively worse the more you get of it
Theres mastery per point
there's nothing like a "hard cap" if you're not talking about something like haste for outlaw
At some amount of points it gives less stat per point
so something like logistic growth?
It doesnt really matter, but +2000 crit from gear can get DR:ed
+10% crit from a buff wont
Sim already takes it into account
Interesting
I'd personally call that a soft cap, if they actually stop (gear) stats from scaling linearly when hitting a certain threshold
diminishing returns should just happen naturally due to stats competing with each other
but I guess that's nitpicking (or wrong 😅)
guys, assa will be better than sub in m+?
doubt
no idea
DR's help stats not become insane at higher/end gear levels
imagine if vers didn't DR and you could have like 20-25% damage reduction and 40-50% damage
at the end of an xpac
Were we swaping a gem in the circle ring with the change or we keeping everything the same
on our opener we slam CB/sectec or hold cb for the 2nd sectec? i read it's a minor gain but just wondering if that's after our opener or our other rounds of big cds like flag, etc.
holding for 2nd is a gain in any flag/blades window, not just opener or afterwards
ok thanks
Look at pins, 1st message
My bad didnt pres the pin msg on mobile thx
NP 🙂 TLDR: we swap Legendary to Windsinger
Right now i got 16k-16k Mas-Vers should i use windsinger to get more mas or vers or is this best
is there a way to fix shadow dance being pressed somehow after vanish instead of shadowstrike? i have them on the same bind, shadowstrike is there when stealth is active, but for w/e reason sometimes dance is activating when i press it after vanish in opener
you can always sim and find out if its worth to switch for you
sims will tell you what's best for your gear
you don't look for "X mastery and Y vers and Z crit" etc etc
stat caps are a thing of the past for most specs
Would sim c pick up on windsinger changing to vers or mast if I move some stats around?
it should
Aight ty king
!cyrce
damn I'm like 4k vers ahead of mast
!wa
basically locked in
not bad
I am also like 3.5k ahead with mastery
but my sims like mastery better still
the longer a fight takes and the more cleave you get, the better it likes mastery
at least based on my current gear
does the rotten increase unseen blade damage?
tooltip says "backstab and shadowstrike now also strike with an unseen blade", so it sounds like its part of the builder
It is, buit its a separate hit, that isn't a builder
Nothing I hate more than rogue having multiple fun specs to play
too bad if it doesnt work. was thinking that you could delay symbols until after first shadowstrike, and then get the rotten on the two "free" unseen blades after secret tech
the only thing with that would be you'd strike to proc unseen blade, so even if it did affect it you'd only get it on one
but strike does a ton of damage so boosting that with Rotten is very nice


i think if you symbols at the same time as shadow blades, it would unseen blade on the next two shadow strikes, where you have the rotten.
why did it start showing node and entry id again smh
what makes the shaman buff so important for sub? do the extra hits procc shadow techs and give us energy or whats the reason?
it's a unique damage hit so it would consume both stacks per strike+UB
more shadow technique procs
hey chaps, during the opener after the rupture, do you guys use a macro to cast all cds at once? or do you go piano mode as well there?
Piano gang
convenient binding to access multiple presses comfortably > needing a bunch of situational macros
I do the same keyboard/mouse button splitting
I see, guess I need a bit more finger practice
Tifa needs fingering practice haha
What shaman buff?
skyfury
grants us extra auto swings which can proc shadow techniques
plus the mastery is a bonus
but mostly the AA thing
tldr never play sub without one
thank you
did the recommended m+ build change a little from first dance to weaponmaster on wowhead? when i did copy it it had first dance
first dance is better
i think i saw a sim with all the difference of the trinkets in here at some point, mby im tripping but if someone has a link for that would be greatly appreciated
!guides
Fwiw on 8 target cleave the fight needs to be 12 minutes long to for weaponmaster to catch up to TFD (as in a single use of tfd)
Weaponmaster does nothing on aoe
good to know
12 minutes LOL
wow
so not really any dungeon where you would realistically swap lmao
Yeah wm some POOP
not unless it flurried and did 500% damage
hey guys, I have kind of a unusual question
when playing with the hero talent "so tricky" so Tricks lasts 1 hour, is there any way to not show the visual indicator for tricks over my character? I mean this red thingy and the ever so often showing of the tricks icon
By default
god damn
hi so im using whysper's WA is there an important buffs i need to track?
you might want to track unseen blade stacks to know when to use evis in aoe for coup
you might want to track flawless form stacks, its not that important because you will have it up the majority of time tho
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
!wa
weakauras companion is immensely frustrating, feels like there's always a user visible bug
for the unseenblade its called escalating blade right?
WA companian is data mining
can you elaborate? is it just collecting download stats, or something a little more sinister?
for the unseen blade talent and in the last raw it says occurs once every 20s , does it apply for the fazed target row? or for the coupa de grace stacks?
yes, the spell id if you need it
Is there a reason not to macro shadow dance and symbols together?
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.
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.
basically you don't always use them together
But why not since there doesn’t seem to be a time when you’d cast dance without symbols?
or if you used a macro, doing so would screw up having 2x sod/dance in flag
there are cases where you dont
almost all macros for sub would create more issues than they'd solve
take your second dance in flag
dance it up, sectech has >10sec left on its cooldown
but casting dance+sod would mean you supercharge 2x evisc instead of evisc+sectech
which you don't want
So are you dancing on cd during cd window?
yes, during flag you dance again as soon as the first ends
and then symbols when sectech cd is =<10
so that you supercharge it
idk if there are any full 25second pictures of abilities outside of looking at logs
!burst
During your Flagellation and Shadow Blades you want your second Shadow Dance to be cast immediately after the first one ends. You do not
want to cast Symbols of Death at the same time as your second Shadow Dance, but rather 1 or 2 seconds later when Secret Technique has
10 seconds or less remaining. This is to make sure you supercharge the Secret Technique instead of an Eviscerate.
Because of this a Shadow Dance+Symbols of Death macro is not ideal.
Lmao
Good call
Thank you
hey can you follow up on this? I don't want to use it if it's doing something shitty, so if you could explain what it's doing I'd really appreciate that
why am I doing more st dmg in m+ build than in raid st 😄
are you using TFD and fighting for less than four minutes?
yes and maybe... will try more
tfd is awesome
it tends to outperform wm in shorter fights
i wont go into detail because people have vested interests but ill just say i like a clean pc
Pretty sure it's fine to use and I wouldn't worry. You could try searching online to see if anybody actually does go into details but I imagine it would've been pretty known by now if it was actually mining data or w/e.
is it worth tracking flawless form stacks or does it not change decision making at all?
My WAs don't, but it's easy enough to add if it's worth it, and it's noise if it's not
I track it just to see if it's up or not.
how good do you guys think sub rogue will be in s2 m+?
🔮
Yes
I concur
it will be terrible. worst class in the history of the game. panic and flee now.
Extremely purple. Probably the most purple spec.

so.... am i looking at this all wrong or.... does not getting 6 globals after you blow your cds before your next shadow step just.... throw the whole opener off ?
rogue is dead just unsub man
Not. For. Long.
You should probably look up the opener in general
tysm
I've been consuming auras for a while and I have to say Le is a really great designer. layout is perfect for what I need to know and the disappearing icons when things aren't relevant anymore are chef's kiss
hope he or she reads this eventually to know they're appreciated
Tag her in your first msg
Agreed, Lisonna's WA is absolutely stellar.
designing ux really requires an artistic touch and they have it
only if blizzard could do the same

ill read it again but ..... ive noticed if you get any less than like 4 finishers off during the beginning of that burst window then you wont get enough cd reduction on secteq to be able to have it available .... and if you only get 5 globals off then it always messes you up so you cant supercharge your next two finishers properly....
hey now vanilla ux has come a long way
so is house of cards mostly used with sblades or can it also be used with flag?
they operate with some more constraints too because they have to actually worry about performance
use it with sblades! you don't want to waste time on it
Gcds in that window are very important
If you do it right, you will get your 2nd SecTech off with 3-4 seconds left on Shadowblades in your 2nd dance
right thats what i was tryign to ask/point out.... i feel liek if you DONT get 6 globals off before the second dance you mess everything up
I think there is a fundamental misunderstanding of the opener in general
if shadowblades + flag has like 42s before its off cd , and i got x1 charge of sd , do i send it? or keep
You should be able to get every global no problem
aha kk ty
you might get lucky and make it sometimes, but other times you wont make it
But yes its very important to play the blades/flag window properly
Otherwise its all cursed
I always end up missing the last global and i notiticed its dictated by how fast i press the first set of damage cd's and how fast i go into my builders and spenders after i punch all the initial damage cd buttons.... as in ill always feel like ill literally have JUST enough time to get that 6th gcd off
i was reading the method guide and it's telling me to stop sending dances and symbols when flagellation reaches below 30 seconds (so that i have 2 charges for cd's rdy). what am i doing when sectec gets rdy during this downtime? hold it for the whole time?
yes hold it
Looking the the breakdown you sent, your sequence of spells is all over the place
it's more valuable to hold it so you get it during your burst window, than to get the extra cast and possibly miss it
Its really important to pay attention to sht refunds in the window as well, as thats were alot of the fast paced cdr comes from
You can send a naked SecTech with 30sec left on flag, anything under 25sec gets hard to make tho
I think I explained it relatively well actually to mention my concern
yes but i suppose what im asking is , is it normal to feel like you have just enoughf time to get 6 globals in before the first shadow dance you do runs out ? or shoudl that not be happenning ?
Let me reiterate for you. If you do NOT do your entire CD windows with Sblades up the entire time right, you WONT get enough finishers in. Hence you should take a look at your opener
how would you play in this situation, aoe pull in m+. I open with the normal 2sd 2 symbol + sb/flag opener. inbetween the Sb/flag i aim to use 2 sd + symbol. ~ 30 seconds before blades come back i am just using storm + bp getting that sd cd down, but sectec is off cd. Do you just hold it with like 20 seconds on your cds or do you do only symbol + sectec and the big cds as they come?
press and hold casting is hella unreliable. I have some trouble getting the cadence right with gcd; is there a WA for GCD timing flashes? I wish press and hold was more reliable...
I can't really spam click for a11y reasons
better to hold sectech to ensure you can do your burst window correctly
but if flag is 30 seconds out you should be safe in aoe
With 30sec you are fine even in ST scenarios
hi guys i was wondering which spec loses more when there is uptime loss assa or sub?
can always send a naked sectech
hmmm, there are gcd weak auras out there. But you also might want to fiddle with the spell que window to see if there is something there that might be more comfortable for you
is macroing symbol to sec wrong? since u always allign them for the supercharge?
thanks! didn't even realize you could mess with that window~!
but as long as you have 1x sod ready when flag is 30 seconds on cd you're fine bc its cd is 25
you just want to ensure sectech is supercharged, you'll likely lose damage if you do that because you do wanna press sectech independently to get that sweet damage buff
Yep, dont macro Symbol to anything
ive already analyzed exactly how many globals i need to do it correctly thats what im trying to say im literally like a step ahead of you in your response..... my question is me asking if its normal to barely have enough time to get those finishers sent out to ge the cd reduction you need before the second shadow dance..... i dont know how much more easily i can explain it
I give up
so like why is macroing cold blood to sec wrong now
!cb
- Why is the Cold Blood and Secret Technique macro not recommended anymore?
When you macro these two together you often end up using it outside of your shadow blades window rather than inside of it, and since Subtlety gets so many damage modifiers inside its cooldowns its actually more damage use it only in Shadow Blades
(yes, even if you end up losing casts of cold blood). Ideally you use it on your second Secret Technique as it will be buffed by more stacks of Flawless Form and have higher Flagellation stacks.
it's not, so long as you can do it unmacroed
o
what do you mean before the second shadow dance?
you dont have tech up before the second dance
i wish there was a list of bot commands somewhere xd
let me screen shot one sec
something like
/cast [mod:ctrl] Cold Blood; Secret Technique
/cast Secret Technique```
would be fine
the issue with tech and symbols being macrod together
is that in non cd windows
you want to sec tech second
and evisc first for macabre stacks
small optimization, but its there
sub rogue outside of cds is so not-busy that I can finally drop my weakaura that blares a foghorn at me when my cooldown's about to come up. my gameplay is now significantly less nautical.
I would blow your mind if you watched me play
I have a wa that cash registers every time I am at 6+ combo points
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
hmm, I can't find this window in the game options -- is there somewhere else I should be looking or am I just blind
ok so here is the example .... do you see how there is 6 globals between my first secteq and the second shadow dance ?.... ive always noticed for me to be able to do the opener correctly and for it to work fluently to get the amount of cd reduction i need for the next secteq to line up perfectly with everythign i need to get 6 globals off after that first secteq and before the second dance... but somtimes or orften time i BARELY have enough time befoer the first shadow dance runs out... is that normal ? in this example i missed it by 1 gcd...
who were saying that there not good leather feet
this look pretty ok to me
and stats so bad for others than they wont be that expensive
macro spell que console command
you have to type it in
oh, console command! thank you
Man I love seasons with good boes
+1 slot I don’t have to wait in vault for

yeah we don't get a vers/mastery neck so you can either go with flickering glowtorc or craft one if you really want
@dense coyote you have to be doing something wrong later on in the sequence
because that doesnt matter
Are you doing this on dummies without skyfury
we have so much mastery with s2 gear that getting heavy vers and some crit is pretty solid
it doesnt matter if he has skyfury or not or lust, you still have time to symbols and get tech out in the flag blades window
skyfury ?
I'm just gonna craft mine, I think. -3 ilevels so it's pretty whatever.
Probably same, unless it shows up in my vault as the best option randomly
cba farming DFC
skyfury can change how your cdr lines up quite a bit
and possibly
not having skyfury wouldnt change whether or not you can get your second tech in the flag blades window
yeah
yeah unless you totally scuff your opener skyfury is going to make or break it
how are you feeling exile? excited for race?
first spark is dagger tho, then probably cloak or boots for me unless something surprising shows up in sims
High5, same.
or I snag boe boots and recraft lens to wrists
but that's a gold and robot question lol
I also need to stop playing totemic enh bc I'm having too much fun with it lol
lmao
its still like 25ilvls behind my rogue but blasts so hard
and you get the instant gratification whenever sunderings go out and you feel like youre trucking stuff
i get excited once splits end 
but ya bosses look neat
well c
thats me whenever i play ret tbh
but splits are the true endgame content
pop wings, summon a giant hammer from the sky, feel like you're doing massive damage
how many rogues you got prepped?
even if you might not be
19
10 i think
Noob question from returning player here: when do i use shurriken storm with trickster? do i really only use it in dance as second builder once?
once in dance at 7+ targets
That's a lotta rogue. May you have good loot rng and many houses of cards.
with 2nd charge of Rotten
oh only at 7 targets +?

transmitter >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
JUMP 3X
Hahaha
so outside of dance i wont use it?
outside dance you use it instead of backstab
I am going to be so happy to get rid of that stupid trinket
bc its better cp gen
Rogues aren’t seeing house of cards unless transmitter gets nuked
me when i never got transmitter to begin with
I'm not bound by loot council, owned
does sus drink come from a wq? or did you get it from a chest
I am 100% using house of cards because fuck transmitter. Thankfully I live in the wonderful realm of Heroic AotC chasing and not Mythic. I am blessed.
i got it warbound from a rare iirc
I'm replacing a 626 transmitter so I can ditch it early
I also never got a heroic one so lmao
lmfao true freedom
Maybe we revisit this in five months and I'm still using the normal transmitter 'cos hoC never dropped for me.
!remindme
I just know I'm the only res on Zee's so its mine if it drops in heroic ever
GOON SQUAD RISE UP
im trialing for this guild so uh
plus I get 100% of daggers
slacker.
im looking at m+ trinkets lmao
every kyveza kill we've ever had has dropped at least 1 Regicide so I think I had 5 in my bags at one time
Yeah, haha
I always invited a low iLevel rogue to my heroic pugs so daggers didn't get wasted
Same as a hunter

My guild are transmog heavy so I think I only took 1 regicide
Pretty sure I'm still the only 80 rogue in the guild that isn't an alt someone leveled and never played. 3 80 rogues total lol
we went from zero hunters last tier to 3 this tier I think
but we have I think three or four paladins, four warriors
two windwalkers and a mistweaver
no dh I'm pretty sure because both of ours quit
all four specs of druid too
might ask for Innervates just so they don't go to waste
!wa
also headpiece for catalyst
!wa
Is black powder more damage +7 mobs then eviscerate is even though it’s capped? Thought still would do more damage or I’m bugging
Hello guys, just quick question.. Why is every rogue now playing maghar orcs? is something broken about that or what?
you basically get a free 2min trinket that gives mastery or vers
so we can use it for every other blades window
Heya, i just came back to play rogue, we just use SoD and Dance when Sec Tech is ready right?
outside of flag/blades, yes
aah makes sense.. so its great for almost every spec of rog i guess
!wa
especially so for sub because we condense so much of our damage into those burst windows
it doesnt matter what race you play
like really
its within 1% or less
black powder is soft capped vs nimble flurry which is hard capped
yes, you are right, not gonna argue.. i was just curious why almost every player i know switched 😄
also current deal in the shop
people like to rance change and look whats "best"
holy fuck neck decent too???
I for one could never play Tauren Rogue that is a total meme for me
Lets go stealth as a cow
Vibing vibing vibing
ist crit mastery
i mean im playing classic orc and really not gonna switch to brown orc XD
That’s okay
crit vers
Allows to flex sin too
from bis list, unless you're talking about boe
Talking about boe
ah I never look at those normally lol
I figure crafting one at slightly lower ilvl is a lot cheaper
Guys, do we use coldblood only during big cds? 
you can if you have very good timing use it between too, but its extremely tight and its better to just use it during big cd's
yea that i got, but just watching quick sims it does use it only during big cds
yea i can see that fuu, okay
It’s cheaper but the faster I can raidlog the better my mental
So it’s worth the gold for me personally
lmao fair point

I think the last BoE I bought was Apparatus of Khaz'goroth
later in the season you can pick them up cheap for alts but
gotta be $$$ to buy them when it matters
the sim only uses it during big cd's
that neck is gonna be crazy pricey
it is super fucked to change apl to use in the middle then use it right after
i could not manage
to make it more than neutral
because it krangled things sometimes
thx a lot

easy buy
So with orc/maghar racials showing as best, those are 2min but flag/blades are 1.5min, do you just macro it and let it lineup when it does?
neck is quite good
Trickster likes some crit so neck is ok
I love some neck
yeah its up for every other blades
Makes sense ty
whats our best m+ trinket? kezan is probably ass right
How much of a dps loss is it to enter shadowblades with one shadow dance available for the duration?
there's a few that are pretty decent
give me the top 3
no
yeah that's a lot of work

heart of azerokk remnant of darkness and pacemaker are the easy ones to farm
magnet
are they all m+?
although maybe you can play proccing it at low stacks it does some aoe
it wasn't doing much aoe when I was trying it out a bit ago
at least not worth writing home about
yea they are from motherlode darkflame and liberation
it has agi main stat i think so the dmg will be low anyway
yeah and stacking takes like 2mins+
I just remember it showing up in sims but those might have been the st ones and I forgot
I did trinket sims for a bunch of fight lengths starting with 2mins so they're a blur
when you use it it does like a little dot on aoe
so maybe on aoe you just use on low stacks
yeah and just go for quantity hits
ahh okay thank you so big pulls like necrotic wake start for example better to use black powder
as the aoe thingy does not care about stacks
tbh will need some testing
will be quite good for the bosses that have phases where you can stack at least
I wish the ratfang one did damage outside of the 1 damage hit bc it stacks instantly but does literally nothing until you press it every 1.5mins
like you can take the dmg from a non important part to another
yeah that might not be a bad idea to check out
probably not making it bis but an interesting alternative
kinda like Scythemaxing as DS
hello, new to sub here, might be a dumb question - does Rupture snapshot the % damage increases from Danse Macabre and SoD?
rupture doesn't snapshot, no
the only damage increase it specifically gets is from Finality
we tend to avoid casting rupture in shadow dance
ahh kk, ty
if your starting out yes
another dumb question - can we just essentially macro Shadow dance and SoD together - from what i see there's zero reason to ever use them apart
no
!burst
During your Flagellation and Shadow Blades you want your second Shadow Dance to be cast immediately after the first one ends. You do not
want to cast Symbols of Death at the same time as your second Shadow Dance, but rather 1 or 2 seconds later when Secret Technique has
10 seconds or less remaining. This is to make sure you supercharge the Secret Technique instead of an Eviscerate.
Because of this a Shadow Dance+Symbols of Death macro is not ideal.
not a dumb question, actually very common
Yeah we try to stack 2nd SecTech with CB, Rotten and Supercharger
thank you very much , that makes sense
Moroes works hard
!fuu

!sub
why do you press sectec in cds as first finisher and outside of cds as 2n finisher? Because of cdr in burst window? and outside cause dance macabre stacks?
easier to fit 2x in flag, plus grants 2 unseen blade hits
which enables coup before 2nd sectech for bigger flawless form stacks which = bigger 2nd sectech with cold blood
outside big cds it doesn't matter as much
so you can cast dance/sod when sectech has 10sec left on its cooldown

Na just first all the time
do you ever hold sec tech ? like if I have it ready but my CDs are coming back in 20 sec do I just send with a Symbols ?
U only sectec with symbols up
You generally dont send anything when flagellation has like 20s left
hmm okay, when i test on dummies pretty sure its wrong my 2nd sectec is always rdy before i press second dance
so nothing with 10 secs left
What
in flag?
y in flag
Your second dance should be immediately after the first one
y
Your second sectech is absolutely not ready before the first dance ends
unless its your 2nd flag and you messed up earlier
hmm maybe with this sit in stealth and you dance lasts longer stuff? dunno will take a look again
would your 2nd dance not be ready to send right after first
do we have kind of a graphic which shows me, how far my trickster aoe evis hits around me (or target) not sure
For that to happen you would have to have spent 47 combo point in 7 seconds of dance
its ~8yards around you
okidoki
ah i guess thats the point i imported aoe talents with the first dance or how its called so my dance is what 11 seconds?
12, ye

You don’t want flag and symbols macro’d. Almost all of the CDs have timing variable though out the length of the fight and macros just don’t work.
read below (optimizations)
its explained in the image below or/and the explenation tab
I use a Secret Tech and Cold Blood Macro, is that worth as they line up nicely for each other
!cb
- Why is the Cold Blood and Secret Technique macro not recommended anymore?
When you macro these two together you often end up using it outside of your shadow blades window rather than inside of it, and since Subtlety gets so many damage modifiers inside its cooldowns its actually more damage use it only in Shadow Blades
(yes, even if you end up losing casts of cold blood). Ideally you use it on your second Secret Technique as it will be buffed by more stacks of Flawless Form and have higher Flagellation stacks.
Basically you keep that macro, but have SecTech separate. Use the macro on the second cast of ST.
weaponmaster for ST?
yes
If it’s 4 mins or less swap TFD with weaponmaster.
the other way around
would you hold vanish to get TFD up, if there is downtime in a fight?
does that even work?
ok
its a weird condition sadly ^^
only talent in the game with this specific requirements
With my current gear, I have to go to like 2 minutes to make TFD equal
Does TFD scale better with gear to make the 4 minute statement become reality?
Idk its just what i found with the new profile
But thats also for pure ST
for anything aoe its almost always better to be first dance
replace WM with SL tier bonus and then promptly delete it
You’d have to sim where that breakpoint is I think
He already had WM. Short fights take TFD.
Potato Potato
My current gear 4 mins is break even give or take 10 Seconds.
Are you guys higher on vers than mastery?
yeah
No. 22ish vers, 88 mastery
vers 18k mastery 9k
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I have a few vers/crit pieces so my mastery is lower
WM just meh
@alpine wraith tyf or new video gonna watch and learn!! u are one of the sub goats like fuu ❤️
got WM 22 strikes and 37 backstabs from it from the entire reclear we did on tuesday
Juicy stabs I’m sure
granted ran w/o it on a fight ortwo iirc

dont look at wm vs replicating
they cant hurt us!
hey at least replicating works now!
man our talents suck
wm still no flurry
I was looking at our tree again just now and the pathing crosses my eyes
I’d drop WM before Replicating
is fuu streaming ?
sub tree is just legit weird
@lilac stag you dont like sepsis??????
I need some official comments on S e P s I s
tell me
IS IT GOOD?
a good CAPSTONE???
Sepsis was fine
it was good, no idea why was removed, as well as dust xD
One less knucklehead in here. Perfect. 
is it true that the bosses favor our 1:30 cds or was it a meme that it is especially good to have that
never forget, RIP sepsis
a lot of the fights in new raid are decent for the 90 second window, that is true.
People would enjoy goremaws more if we actually needed energy.
I think they use it in pvp?
yeah
based on what I've seen when playing around with stats today
it also makes that warning signs kind of insane that it exists
I would wager the guess that TFD likes vers more
Or both

it's a warning sign that they don't understand our spec
iirc, Realz said that because snd scaled with haste, he wanted a haste scaler in the tree
I don't think it really matters

Hey, I'm just coming back and not ready to drop my rogue main. Is sub still performing well or is it back to assass?
back to outlaw baybeee
😂
this is really good. I just noticed this Haptics
Outlaw sims highest so it's the best spec 🙂
Wait is this facts or bait
it often sims highest
One statement is a fact, the other is up for interpretation

but its damage profile is mostly flat
so sub? 😄
sub is the most fun
alr sub it is ty 😄
SUB IT IS
!wa
Been playing assa my whole life, did learn theory through Fuu's guide + training on target dummy for a couple of hours .. bro sub is so cool to play
still making mistakes but omfg that's orgasmic
Nothing feels as good as a big sectec it’s true
keep practicing its worth 🔥
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
yep. u guys delay SecTech when there's like ~15sec before 1mn30 burst and obv no Symbols overcap right ? (even tho you're never supposed to be able to overcap Symbols at least on target dummy)
!guide
You can use secret technique with >= 20 seconds on your burst, if it means you’ll still have symbols with 1 charge and 14 seconds on recharge for the burst. You generally don’t actively need to think about not capping on symbols since you’ll be using it before that happens anyways. You can of course use symbols and secret technique without shadow dance if you need to hold shadow dance for the burst
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
so if I understood correctly, at 7+ targets we dont care about ctg?
You still want to consume CTG if you have fazed up for more flawless form stacks
did they already patch the super charger opener?
The Vanish > Shadowstrike is getting annoying as fk
You always coup
You just dont eviscerate
wait why are people abbreviating coup as ctg
just press Nightblade bro
!fuu

how is it annoying
