how do you get knowledge points?
crafting orders, which show up in droves
you get 3 catchup points a day
patron orders right?
yeah
those cost money to make right?
which is enough in a couple weeks to make a single craft you're interested in 5star
barely
lol
literally everything in the game costs money
unless you farm it yourself
which isn't hard
You can actually (for a few professions) hit R5 day 1 with them off the back of the world profession knowledge, first crafts and books.
because there's shit everywhere
Of course that's with like, super narrow focusing and prior knowledge.
I can get hundreds of herbs in just a couple loops around ringing deeps which is maybe 30mins
engineering is an interesting one because stuff is guaranteed 5star but unless you capped out on knowledge you can't use the important finishing reagents, so you can still charge a premium for the craft
of course, the flip side of that is that nobody wants anything engineering has to offer, so, lol
see a couple gun requests every once in a while
gotta get the mount parts
That's a really good point, yeah
but yeah they're kinda lacking for stuff outside potion bombs
I think I've made 1 gun, and 2 bracers lmao
the bracers and helm are interesting but only a couple specs would use those
hang on
This is from the start of DF (FInished that with like, 5k crafts or something? combined)
But the difference is very funny
I made an ultimate support aug with r3 potion bomb of power as the only thing I specced into deliberatelo lol
you guys are insane. I came back to TWW a few months back, and I've maxxed engineering on 2 chars and tailoring/leatherworking. it costs quite A LOT of time and a significant amount of gold to max the professions.
You people are saying all that effort is worthless because you dont need to spend conc for a r5 craft and its "just a button"?
actually bracers and helm are infuriating because they don't use the regular embellishments, only the extra-shitty engineering ones
Right?? AND the potion Engineering tinker is BAD
It makes me sad.
man idk I just charge like between 1 to 5k depending on what I feel like and if somebody doesn't want to pay that they can find somebody else
Also like 400 of those Engineering orders are just Aug's in S2/S3 wanting rez bracers.
Nobody is saying it's worthless. I'm just saying that all you are ultimately doing is pushing a button and I personally think demanding high gold cost to that is silly when most people now just go "tip whatever you want"
i dont even do crafting orders, i did professions mostly for myself and friends. idc about tips, but what i disagree with is these dudes saying "you just press a button"
well yeah if someone tells me that I tell them they can push the button themselves
people are gonna say whatever, that's the internet
yhea
Yea, on dalaran you can charge a good fee and people will pay it cuz the server is dead
on area52, you ask me for 10k im juist gonna ask one of the other 10 people who dm'd after say lf craft
same with farming mats, which I do when I'm bored which is often
same on my server, suramar
5k isn't exactly outrageous anyway
or at least it wasn't
might be a bit much now and I'll cut it some
You can probably get away with it week 1 tbh
Malfurion usually has them for 1k a lot of the time
surprised to hear that dalaran is dead I thought that was one of the busier ones
Yeah, AD is effectively "tip whatever" and anybody trying to charge a fixed price gets laughed at.
stormrage is filled with crafters
suramar/draka/windrunner/darrowmere are quiet but not dead, it's nice
Let’s be real, the tip for crafting isn’t the real issue. It’s the price of consumables. Worse than inflation in America.
I miss R3 mats being so expensive because resourcefulness procs ruled
I just have an alchemist that has infinite coreway catalysts that brings a potion cauldron to raid night
hearty feasts are fuckoff expensive tho
so is thug hotline sim bait? I see it outperforming eye of kezan not sure what to put on my bis list besides house of cards
btw you shouldnt be eating those as sub
secondary stat is better
I provide feasts for the raid 99% of the time and unless I go get my own slum sharks I'm throwing away gold
Eye did get a slight nerf
hearty beledar's bounty is better for sub
not when I sim
It's going to depend on your own statting iirc.
true
sim yoself, as the kids say

Masq is a whole percent better than beledar for me
I just don't care and use Bounty 'cos I made like 500 at launch and am sitll going through them.
I'll sim when I run out.
somebody else brings the flasks I bring the pots
Oh yeah I have a ton for myself when I do keys
!guide
it's only like 2k for me to make a pot cauldron lol
I've been prepping to have 4 feasts a week for 8 weeks for prog
bc that's about how long we go before people get really bored
i thought "you should be eating secondary stat food at all times" meant I didnt have to sim
but i guess not
if you're ever gearing ever you should
It's also within, what, crit variance? Who cares. Use whatever, it's a buff regardless.
because blanket statements don't always hold true
primary stat is better now that we have more secondaries
maybe you can tell fuu to update that part
nice
Do you really need to sim which of the +470 highest secondary stat foods sim the highest
no, im talking about the difference between secondary stat food and primary stat food
r there dslice sims anywhere? im lookin at the sheet rn and the link to the sims on the sheet are unclickable. unless im bugged
and i know its irrelevant, but i like to know which one is better
nah they aren't there for me either
slice ones are not done yet
as for sub it is likely to be stronger because how dungeons work than expected
huh?
but gear wont change much
thats not from wowhead
oh my bad lmao
stop stealing eleem's guide fuu
i meant @hazy breach's guide
gonna have a turf war
but as eleem mentiond, its whatever
just dont talk about food like me
try to have a food
ez
if I don't feed the babies they get cranky
YES
but if you want good food, i would try ramen
Don't raid on an empty stomach 
whatever you tell me to order ill order tonight
what food am i eating tonight guys?
for well fed buff S2 start
pizza
burger
when in doubt always pizza
I'm going with a fat fuckin burrito
gimme, damn. that's good ramen
had to google that
never heard of it, japanese pancake lmao
there's a place like 20mins from here that has killer black garlic chashu ramen
i might go with pizza, had burgers yesterday
Potentially annoying question but which spec is going to be meta for m+ this season? I love m+ and need to start practicing.
likely arms and enhance
totemic enh turbo fun
actually dh
both for higher keys
My fault I meant of the rogue specs sorry
I do like fire mage tho so that’s good to know
Assasination is kinda decent tbh
I'm gonna list my own keys and decline everyone
IMO if your play is perfect, its going to go Sub > assass > outlaw
except for feral druids and survival hunters
if higher keys i feel like assass will be better
but for real the 3 specs will be doing mid to high fine
in higher keys you wont take rogues IN THEORY but as we always know
Roll the dice and pick the one you like. That's the best way.
personality diff
Purple -> meta
I have almost zero experience with sub hoping to learn soon but I have got to 90-97 parses consistently on outlaw and assass so I’m comfortable on those.
I honestly think Assasination is just a straight tier ahead of sub, especially on high keys
sub is not hard just complicated
it uses the same skills in the same order
just in different situations
could be true
If I found outlaw easy to understand and learn will I struggle to learn sub? Or is it harder?
assass is insane
sub is more of a planning problem specially in m+
I made both at home, see:
[Oknonmijaki](#1203397195588435999 message)
[Ramen](#1203397195588435999 message)
YES YOU WILL STRUGGLE INSANELY HARD IN MY OPINION I CANT PLAY IT CORRECTLY
you have to CHOOSE what you use and how effective they will be
it is not like assa use cd on cd
Uh oh
You'll be fine. Just practice, read the guides, practice some more.
looks great, youre a good cook dude
you can look at my videos for midcore content or the high key pushers maybe zac zeross casual etc will play sub
It's all about learnign the why we do stuff and not just push button.
I can cook stuff thats good, but its never that presentable nice work
dang these look reallllly good
Also agreed they look stellar
So when y’all try to learn a new spec you spend a lot of time watching videos? With outlaw I watched someone’s breakdown I forget who and the explained all conditions etc and with assass I tried something different I watched. High key players and watched the rotation they did and then read abilities to understand why that is the rotation
I will try ur vids hachadino
I put my weakauras together while reading the guides so I know what to watch for and why
helps me see where the pieces fit together
thats what i was going to say, hacha's videos are quite good for that. he plays well
I read a guide. I practice on a dummy. I am the dummy. I practice in dungeons and ask questions. Donezo. It's just takign the time to practice and to ask questions.
we need M+ content from @tribal blade tbh
big blaster
Good advice
You'll make mistakes. Stuff won't make sense. That's a natural part of learning. Just got to keep going and applying it until it's comfortable. If something doesn't make sense or is confusing: asking about it is good. Someone can explain it, or recontextualise it to be more easily grasped.
I have another question for y’all gamers. I currently use naowhs rogue weak aura as my main thing. Am I lacking anything thing I should be tracking or seeing?
Yeah I really fought against learning assass. I LOVE outlaw so I was like maybe I’ll just one trick outlaw but I pushed through and finally got to a point I almost love assass more
unsure what his tracks
I use it too, albeit a very edited version. you're not missing out on anything important
Honestly, if youre new and wanna play Sub, I would strongly recommend LE's WA package
everything you need is there
make sure you track symbols, dance, sectech, flag, blades, escalating blade
Ok good I think it has all that
know when you do or don't have fazed on the target
it has unseen blades ICD tracker, escalating blade, everything
flawless form etc etc
yhea i'd add that @silent rapids it doesnt track it
This will likely be hard sometimes it’s super easier to lose my death stalkers mark on assass and idk who has it sometimes. I’m usually pretty good about it cuz of my player profile but sometimes I’ll lose it
the nice thing for fazed vs mark is that fazed can be on any number of targets, not locked to one
Ah ok good to know, I have never edited a weakaura before where can I go to learn how to add something like that to itv
damn
Uh oh
idk where to go
Damn how’d u learn it?
!Fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i just clicked a bunch of shit until it worked tbh
Lmao I can do that
then i started learning what each thing did with time lol
if you want you can just add an aura that tracks the debuff Fazed on your target
Worst comes to worst I can delete and reinstall I suppose . Been wanting to add my engineering belt sprint and cloak glider to the aux bar anyway
just edit the deathstalker's mark aura on aura bars, go into triggers and change the Spell id to fazed
I'd duplicated the aura vs editing mark
duplicate the deathstalker's mark aura and edit it
so that you still have both and don't have to start over
Ok that doesn’t sound bad I can do that
its pretty easy, just right-click the mark aura, duplicate, then under Triggers change the spell name to Fazed
1 sec ill send it to you
might need to look under the Load tab and make sure its enabled for Trickster
I’m in class right now so I can’t appt what ur saying at this moment but will def try as soon as I head home
Maybe I missed it but I was in here other day looking for a list of helpful rogue macros is that something that exists somewhere? I have some great ones but sometimes you don’t know what your missing until you see it and I wanted to explore for more
I made the aura for ya, sent it in DMs
Tysm? Much appreciated
(and for myself too lol)
Y’all have def been extremely helpful ty for all the advice
outside of dance do we storm on 2+ or 3+?
8 yards

sc?
supercharger
ah
this clip isnt working on sec
so he pressed sod at full cp with 8s left on sec tech, should be 7s of cdr + 3s from sc
yet sec tech is still on cd
Its just sectech cdr being weird
I come back from a ass season and im confused. Can someone tell me for dummys hownoften i should use dance between major cd-dances? I dont get the timing
Its the same if you have 7s left and use a regular eviscerate
so it works fine as long as you arent overcapping cdr basicallyt ?
Its reduced to 1, not to 0 for some reason
ok so you get full cdr but never get to 0
Ye
the symbols was sent after the evis, no? so it didn't spend a supercharged point
Is it just me or does House of Card trinket sim fairly low? currently doing some Droptimizer HC upgrades and HC HoC is only 1,1k dps upgrade.... Is that correct? or is the sims currently kinda wonky?
Its correct
it shows the symbols after the evis in the gcd tracker and you can even see that sectec goes to 1s before symbols was sent
Fair enough, but the main upgrade is getting rid of Transmitter...
Unfortunately we only get mid trinkets this expac
those BM hunters know what they did
ye true it looks like symbols came after the evis here
Is the new balance note another 5% sectec nerf AND another hunter buff? Or is it a revision of the previous one?
Yeah, it's def Dave.
Its just the old nerf
But they changed the hunter buff from 10% to 5%
(aka its nerfed)
Any thoughts of why every guide says Pyrotechnic Needle-Dropper is listed as bis on every site, but when simming, Random Number Perforator sims higher?
Thank god
Dunno if you can see these numbers aswell, but it seems quite odd atm
you're not simming them at same ilvl for one and pyrotechnic is bis stats
Well its 3 ilvls higher unupgraded
But it also doesnt really matter much
8k dps for 3 ilvl?
Its just different stats
melee dps really likes weapon ilvl lol
Run the droptimizer at max upgraded level instead of as it drops
I'll run it now with max upgrades, just seemed odd so had to ask around 😛
really confused they didn't revert the sectech nerf
I'm skeptical theres going to be as much downtime as apparently they expect?
I expect it's gonna be down longer than they expect lol
how come it's recommended to send the trinket with Shadowstrike rather than Sectech?
actually crazy, when they now are same ilvl it sims 1,6k dps more (PND that is) xD Trinkets still seems fucked, but I guess HoC still stays bis even tho the sims are completly fucked with trinkets xD
there just aren't good trinkets 
they had to change house just so we'd have a 1.5min that wasn't 99% useless
look at what they'd replace
top trinkets replace a passive
vs house which I'm assuming is replacing transmitter
That Sim shows u using 2 on use
does not matter much, its easier to just send it with cds
True
p sure its transmitter and contract
Ye theres also like 3 from dungeons, 2 from delves and the crafted ones
That sim pretty much identical

How do I get it to show with correct setup? cuz when i unhide the variations it shows basically the same
Wdym correct setup
So if cp rules are 6+ everytime but ur in dance u got 5 cp and one finisher left u still clicking shadowstrike?
nvm, too much on my mind.... ofc it's replacing 1 on use and one passive
xD
mbmb
You basically want HoC if you’re tired of playing trinket games
yy, 100%, i just didn't understand the sims with the initial numbers that showed, but makes sense that it would just sim the swaps vs your current on use/passive
well, ty for the replies ❤️
Transmitter will surely cop another nerf soon
you are probably better off using top gear, therea re text files you can copy and paste from #tc-research
ty, i'll do that aswell!
shadow-binding ritual knife, can it drop from all delves?
yep
alright cool
so spam r8 bountifuls, hope it drops from vault or a map
yep that's pretty much the play
Only one map a week 
I need to burn 100 keys next season to get the 250 bountiful achiev
Same..
the only delve achievement I didn't get last season lol
What does the golden key do
what golden key
There's an achievement reward for some Do A Lot of Delves one
he asked about dungeon sims earlier, you missed it
Which gives a Golden Key item
no way
Oh, the cosmetic one
h o l y
Dunno what it'll be used for. Might be a transmog?
So you can be Kingdom Hearts in woW
Yeah it's a back cosmetic piece
Haha that rules
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
gotcha, assuming I wouldn't mind sending it like that. What's the benefit of doing so?
Guys u use symbols when the last just finish?
Hello boys, i've been practising on dummies for the last day and i can't get my cds back on time reliably, is there any RNG involved or just git gud?
Currently i'm doing:
Flag Blades 2 Dances 2 SoD 2 SecTec cds
1 Dance 1 SoD 1 SecTec
1 Dance 1 SoD 1 SecTec
Flag Blades 2 Dances 2 SoD 2 SecTec cds
1 Dance 1 SoD 1 SecTec
And repeating that
I took symbols off my bar
I only press shuriken throw
Which guide suggests that?
ty
you dont have skyfury buff on dummies
which helps a lot
2 dances with major cooldowns, then 2 dances without major cooldowns, then wait for 2minute trinket to come back to go 2 major cd dances again!?
Sub doesn't want to be using a 2 minute trinket, ideally. Our cooldowns are 1:30, so we want a on use trinket to line up with that.
the problem is, you can't align them well to 90 secs
but a 2 minute damage trinket is perfectly fine as 2nd trinket
its just transmitter/house of cards + X
The cursed imp telephone...
!up

!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
probably should put a season 2 upgrade list there
That'd be rad
comin from ass, only have skardyn qq
"as for sub it is likely to be stronger because how dungeons work than expected" what does that mean exactly? what makes it stronger?
rip^
you should be using actual bis trinkets like me
I'd guess: more downtime, more RP moments, more time for us to get dance / symbols / SecTec up. Good packs, etc.
@tepid trellis me booting up sub rogue for this upcoming raid
But the rotarion 2x wirh cds, 2x wirhout cds and then wait till cds are rdy is right yeah?
I’m using skardyns regardless over transmitter just too lazy
Yeah. 2x Dance in CD's (With a SecTec Each). Two between in the first non-burst. Then 2x again. Then I believe it's just one. and it cycles.
Thanks mate
It's all about packing in the damage as much as possible.
in aoe, is it not worth it to get more stacks for Danse before you sec tec?
i see its the first finisher you press after all your cds
but that would send it with the least amount of danse stacks? just wondering! thanks guys
Any cheatsheet as to when we swap our old tier set (639) or we just sim as we get new pieces?
what is unseen blades? sorry im noob
Any place i can go to get some macros for Sub. I just want to see if my macros make sense and what everone else is doing
We don’t use macros as sub
This is it:
!macro
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.
ah ok thats not what i am doing lol
Can use a Sectech CB macro for second cast of Sectech in flag window but you need Sectech bound separately
!sod
Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
Trickster passive
Or well, the unseen blades from disorienting strikes
Anyhow danse macabre is not something we care about or play around anymore
are there any bugs we're aware of with shadowblades randomly doing giga damage
ive only had it happen twice that ive noticed and only in open world or old content
so it might be a scaling thing
Yep scaling thing
I've seen it happening in old content on and off the whole expansion. It's very sporadic though.
one was in undermine though which is weird
I am doing this which seems fine i still have Symbols of death on a keybind tho
Maybe it clipped a critter or something and did something weird
rip that rat
it is tho lol
Putting symbols in there is a little weird if you wanna precast it before sec tec
its off the GD so figure cant hurt right. saves me a button press. I get what you mean tho if you want to get the CD rolling
I might take it off if i get more comf. with it
Did you play Fatebound assa?
nope
Didn’t realize we don’t recommend macro cold blood secret tech anymore. Why is that ,if someone has time to explain to me.
!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.
You can still have it macrod but, you’d need a naked sectec on your bar somewhere too or using modifiers, whatever your preference is
Yeah it was the experience I had like cold blood wasn’t being used at the right time
If you delay it at the opener for the second sechtech, does it always realign correctly after that?
ye cause you can just hold it
So you'd just use a naked sechtech bind once and then the normal macroed one?
Like it says in the cb command, you lose out on casts overall but, you get more damage for always having it for second cast
like you don't even have to get a usage in between CDs iirc from what Stealthi told me
sometimes you can squeeze in a use between flags but afaik you don't have to
yeah unless you can guarantee consistently that you don't mess it up between flags its not worth it
if that's what you wanna do sure
S*** I need to get some bling transmog before our first rain on Thursday
Been focusing on gear but I forgot what was truly important
mariachi
I guess it's better to just train to not use any macro at all...
Some people use 2 sec tech binds
just personal preference, I have a naked sectec and a cb sectec macro
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it
It's a simplification that doesn't really have a downside as long as you use it correctly
Do some people use a bind with sd/symbols together as well? (While keeping a single sd and symbols bind for the second sechtech during flag burst)
There is no point in that
Genuinly the only macro u should have is a sectec CB macro
Every other macro is bad
Roger
Oh yeah those are fine
Like any 16 second trinket I’m adding to blades unless its a mini game one
Do you macro pot+ trinket with sb? Or keep it separate? Or another spell?
I racial with Sb but not sure about trinket/pot
Pot I had with flag bc it’s a 30 second buff but I might move it
I think I will macro pot with SB
might be able to squeeze my dance after the opener into pot
how over is it for me if my rogue does not have transmitter and i cannot guarantee a house of cards, should i just play a different spec instead?
just go s3
Is symbols prepull the new standard?
if you have enough time yes
might as well uninstall
just symbols right after you res
to at least guarantee the supercharger stacks
no...
no......
you'll be a few % behind, just depends on the content you're doing
mostly concerned about raid performance
in shadowdance & symbol, after supercharge ends, if you shadowstrike and get 5cp, you gonna press shadowstrike again for last 2cp? thats wierd
if its sub 5% i can tolerate it probably
the running theme this season seems to be "all the trinkets suck" so i doubt its 5% to use a different one
maybe its a farm priory and play sin or craft 1h and play outlaw until dinar / i join a guild angle
i see
if you aren't in a guild and raiding mythic you'll prolly be fine without it for now
Not as bad as sylvanas dagger I hope?
yeah i wanna parse heroic to get into mythic since im other mmo refugee and i used to do their mythic equiv
so its a recruitment issue hehe
good luck parsing on sub
even if you get one you can't upgrade it anymore 🙂
ty
even with transmitter 😄
i don't even remember how much % sylv daggers were
i got fed hard with sylv daggers
around 10% or so for both
You can parse heroic with no hands bro
pretty sure i got mythic sylv dagger on my first kill
oh ok
ok i wont worry so much then
Strange how they destroyed spymaster but not treacherous
Sylv daggers 
iirc sub is a bit of an outlier with transmitter
not sure about other classes, but I'd wager a guess that they would replace their mythic transmitter with a different heroic trinket
One less piece of gear to worry about
Myth track dagger in vault week one
Or heroic shadow knife
i want funny weapon again
do we need to do like 8 delves and all that bs this week? like are the vault rewards tomorrow scaled?
I want sub to be go to raid spec, unfortunately assa will overtake again
hey guys, rather new to the spec, is it normal for the rotation to have these moments of downtime where I seem to have no resources coming in?
Probably on the execute fights
outside of cds you go afk
!design
good to know, is this unique to rogue? Ive played many classes and specs but i either do 5 mil or I do 400k
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".

If the execution fights are the important ones. Why even bother with sub
Just kill the spec already
because dratnos said so
Assa in execute bearly does more than sub

im watching the dratnos vid rn
in a full 5min execute sim
he's saying sub
There is value in playing both and learning both
Nah it will be like last season, 2-3 weeks on sub then assa gets 3 buffs
And we go back to assa
No, I refuse to learn sub. Very hard spec
It is
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
do NOT let guy see this
Tag guy with the word dust
Gotta finish tier before 3rd sub nerf and 4th assa buff
So 2 weeks?
sub sims under 2.5mil now, it would be kinda funny if sub gets another nerf
below 3m it s unplayable ngl
With assa slightly underperforming atm, i expect em to buff it like crazy after rwf
True
If I don’t step into the raid and blink and kill the boss what’s the point
cant wait for a 40% aura buff on outlaw 🥺
Outlaw is waiting for another rework, where KS becomes an actual CD and the spec is finally viable
Is there any reason to delay crafting a dagger this week with gilded crests? Seems safe to do asap
Outlaw the most ethical damage spec wym
actually cant be more ethical than outlaw
Im still waiting for that outlaw prog tier 
You can’t cheese burst, your aoe is 100% reliant on your st
outlaw will be a prog spec after the next rework where it will have 2mn bursts and downtime
aka
every class in the game
Assa with guns
This should have been outlaws patch
is fuu sheet updated?
Make a 1.15 min spec
With the gamba and tierset and fatebound
make outlaw burst every 17 seconds but their keyboards turn off outside of that
No that’s Dave
U rtd, dont hit 5 buffs, wipe the raid
Just make outlaw coup bug baseline
Cant wait to have 0 haste gear again
Then have to swap assa
It was great last time so ill do it again 
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
fair enough
figured maybe that first dagger thing from the first boss
could be good
What
is it actually best one anything more than 1 target
Seems like writhing + ascension isn't even a thing anymore, at least in my sim
Might go straight for focusing lens
Does anyone know how to work with plater scripting stuff. Can't figure out why my rupture tracker for sub isn't working, just duplicated my working one for assassination and changed the spell ID to the sub rupture and it still won't work
In dslice yes, could probably cook up something 0.05% better for mass aoe if you really wanted to
But like, i cant overstate how useless the embellishments are
check that you don't have it set to only load for assassination in the plater script load conditions
Most dont scale with ilvl
Were talking about the embellishments being worth 10-15 ilvls on your bracers
Its like 1/6 of the value it had in dragonflight
Yeah actually disgusting
it isn't
We need buff and a working tier set
Just revert the nerfs
I would be incredibly surprised if sub gets a buff
Way more likely it goes the other way
We are dead after nerfs only in raid for the buff
Wdym all melee look better then rogue
Warrior looking like minimum 2
Can't say with certainty why you're having issues then - is it a script or a mod? Difference matters
I am probably to dumb but how do you come to that conclusion?
In raid sub is very basic rn I think
have u not seen sub dps week 1 if u get a weapon
sometimes like 20+% ahead of the rest
We fall off week 3
That Spell ID underneath definitely isn't 1943 lol
I know, I deleted the wrong one before the screenshot. I tried it out by just typing in Rupture in the add trigger box
just swap to assa in week 3, will have two more 4% buffs by then
But put it back to 1943 afterwards
Havoc prob close to sub first 2 weeks
Haha we are doomed with warrior being so strong
Also ret looking insane first weeks

no one actually plays rogue so gz on your raid spot
sent you a dm so we don't talk plater script stuff here
oh man im setting up my bars
and it seems i've ran out of keybinds
anything i can macro?
🐢 huh
I might be doomed, my CE guild asked me last second to switch to rogue. Sub being my spec of choice. Its over boys we're cooked
I like it a lot but my brain isn't putting the puzzle fully together yet
I think the main thing i get tripped up on is CD usage mid fight
sub has a lot of rules but once you learn them it isnt over difficult
i might dump a couple quick questions
me too, why am i shit
2nd question, how does one go from being shit to not being shit
- Should i be trying to hit a Symbols of death for every ST, or if i have ST up but no Shadowdance or Symbols do i just send it
just say ill play rogue on the condition its assa spec
i jsut went assa and i literally did 0 dmg, im sort of ok with sub, how does that work
felt like I had no weapons equipped
look at logs and copy what they do
true. theres no going back after these 4mil+ openers on sub
right? what went wrong, is assa supposed to built up its dmg ? longer uptime?
poison creep?
it did everything better s1 i think not sure
the rule is you will always ST with every symbols but you dont just wanna send symbols because you always need 2 sod 2 symbols 2 st with cds
In aoe inside dance do you always build with SS?
Try putting poisons on your weapons
was there a sim with all the trinkets?
Yes shadowstrike does significantly more damage than shuriken storm (as trickster that is, but im assuming you are)
Yes I am trickster thank you
OUTSIDE of dance do you build with shuriken storm or do you try to get flawless form up with backstab so you can aoe evis?
At 7+ targets when you ideally want to BP you want to have every aoe dance be strike > sectech > shuriken storm > bp > continue to strike/bp
Just spam storm outside of dance
TFD is better
WM does less on boss fights than TFD in keys as well
So you take TFD and learn to stealth
stealthi has his guide going WM on the method guide so was just wondering
i havent updated the string
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Sleep schedule back to normal?
neither ||no clue||
Rotten
kk
You could also sim it
nah I have rogue geniuses to do that for me
gonna try and sleep in 3 or so hours
Good luck! 
most important things you wish you thought about when learning sub?
Curious about to see if Gally is going to be harder or easier than Ansurek week 1
For that sweet vault
that i picked a hero class and not a rogue
be like that some times.
That I should have rerolled classes
the thumbnail is fire
why sub rogue not good this season?
To one that actually gets dev attention.
We’re one BP buff away from straight up misery
all things ebb and flow my friend
i usually play outlaw lol
im learning sub again bc outlaw tits
I’m shocked
Join the other degens invading 
i didnt play S1, DF3 was the last season i played, outlaw was bonkers.
was sin bis S1 M+ TWW?
week 3 lol?
It will be again
i dont mind sin
outlaw>sin>sub for me lol
but i usually just play whats strongest, love rogue lol
think as a base spec
Sin is the best designed.

11.0.5 was when blizz decided "yeah envenom go brrr"
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Not really sin it was just a 1min cd you pressed with kb.
And outlaw it was basically a worse 2nd vanish.
I mean it didnt really add much complexity it was just shit thematically and wasnt necessary
my brain is still trying to comprehend how to unmacro cold blood without my fingers exploding
u make 2 macros
1 for with 1 without
U only use without in the cooldown cycles
it's more that my keybinds have been inefficient so i have to rewire my brain to make it less awkward
i'll figure it out it'll just be a rough first few weeks
valid
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I feel thats every season i play sub
my binds were fine some time a while ago but fall apart with added button bloat
because some new interaction with sod/dance/blades changes
the spec doesnt have that many buttons atm tho
my binds are semi-cursed
Yeah sub doesnt have much bloat
especially since we lost needing to press snd ever
i think it'll feel better for me when transmitters gone
Don't think you get rid of transmitter until mythic House of Cards
man i wish there is a button to reset your cds so you can practice easier
Hey guys, so i sustained 600k at ilvl 621 no tier, is that decent? im pretty new to sub
imagine not having a proper testing room after 20 years 
my pain rn
how big of a dps lost is it to cast blades with dance+SoD before the first sectech?
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet | Github Tracker
am i tripping or why does BP just feel terrible
even a ton of targets
is it always just ST rotation perma?
At 7 and more target bp does more damage
does or doesnt
Sry typo 😅
even while in dance?
Yes. The difference is u ss in dance
And shuriken outside of dance
wats bis m+ embellishment the vers over 80% hp thing or this rando ST damage thing
Shadowstrike*
i have a disease
cuz i thought it was the vers thing but now im seeing some conflicting information
How much dps should one be doing with 621 ilvl and no tier??
42
420
420k??
okay macro question
ST im doing around 600-700k, last mythic i did over all i did 1.2mil over all
could I do something like
#showtooltip
/cast Shadow Dance
/castsequence reset=10 Symbols of Death, null
assuming i have symbols on its own
that way it'll cast both for the first cast of cds but wont cast symbols for the second usage
feels like you're doing too much
it's more that I had them macroed together before
and also symbols is kinda situational after ur first dance i think so kinda hard to line up a timer
i did too
but learned it in a day, not too hard
symbols has a dedicated key
embellishments this expansion are insanely weak
the vers one is fine
i'm looking at logs and i haven't seen any scenarios this wouldn't work (yet)
do we have any good sub guide here for a quick look?
There's no number to shoot for, different dungeons and different comps will do different damage. Better to see how your cd windows were done/if you were holding on to them incorrectly
!guide
We have 3!
@slate lantern thanks my good sir
augment rune was insanely weak and yet everyone still put one on 
if i can have .05% more dps ima take it 
ye i know 
you'd probably have to sim with your gear to be sure, but the Dawnthread/Duskthread Linings are likely your best bet for m+
Hey guys pardon if this is somewhere in the wowhead guide I couldnt find it, how many Sec Tecs can we get off in our opener within the flagellation buff window, I've been getting two but cant seem to get a third on a target dummy
as trickster
I think 2 is the limit atm, saw something about squeezing a third but involved a trick
for sure I may be misrembering I thought we were getting 3 at the beginning of the xpac, and right no skyfury could be a big contribution as to why im not getting close
!cds
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.
2
Ty I appreciate it
they all kinda suck, but id wager the vers will be slightly better for AoE
waiting for cds to reset on dummies is slowly ruining my life
!fuu

!pandemic
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
I use Luxthos WA package for sub but I feel like there should be something tracking faze other than on your target, is there a WA that shows when it's off cd and will be applied?
Are the tier %s in the pin correct following the nerf?
Still 3% for 2p and 11% for 4p?
Ok, yeah im kind of new. And i was opening wrong, i was going all CDs instead of the subsequent, slice n dice, vanish. rupture then go into CDs
yeah its just a practice and learn kind of spec, need to get that muscle memory up for the piano-esque opener
yeah, i didnt realize had to get shadow blades first, then go into vanish and rupture, then into symbols, flang, dance, then reg rotation
Which i went on target dummy from around 650k-700k to 750k on a 6 minute timer
okay, sooooo what's the final verdict on rotation changes? send ruptures instead of evis with 25s left on flag?
any rotation changes going into the season?
and is that only with 4set, or 2set as well?
oh its in pins nvm
we aren't gaming tier set anymore after the nerfs? @molten citrus
Anyone able to help with this? I found something but it doesn't track resets from auto attacks.
nope
that plan has been dead for a while now
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
yeah I stopped keeping up to date with rotation stuff bc shit was changing so much
ty
Is the wowhead page up to date for rotation stuff?
correct, no way to track unseen blade reset with Thousand Cuts.
ye, make sure you also check out the Optimization section etc
only way you can for sure know you will apply fazed is if you sectech, or next 2 backstabs/shadowstrikes after sectech
transmitter nerf
?
let's fucking go
oh shit
rip bozo
Is it not just effectivly nerfing sub with respect to other classes tho untill we all get hero track house of cards

sub will still be fine with a new weapon early on
I mean, sure, but this is one nerf I can live with
now you just actually want a heroic HoC
is it looking like you will still use transmitter until mythic cards even if you only ever got hero track transmitter?
I agree was super cringe that if u did not get 639 u would be super behind
it was just nerfed again
no
!SIMS
Simulations:
Bloodmallet: https://bloodmallet.com/index.html
its never been more over
i now feel good to never have dropped it

!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet | Github Tracker
good bye sweet transmitter
funniest thing is
we prob still use transmitter until last 2 mythic
so this is just another nerf to sub

finally no shit mini game, looking for your task in 20 ppl with a giant boss and 100m spells
Wait till they realize buffing new trinkets is the solution
Not the other way around

i dont even think they realize our tier is bugged
actually idek what they're aware of
pretty sure they just spin a wheel
whats still bugged about tier?
Dropping stacks when it shouldn’t and something else idr

Ya
devs probably looked in here for 0.5 seconds
saw people who looked new to the channel
U basically have more than double the chances of removing all ur stacks
hit us with a nerf

nah but fr this transmitter nerf is just stupid
new trinkets need to be stronger, not old trinkets made weaker
idk why blizz always does this dumb shit
instead of making you feel more powerful
they just make you weaker
The devs responsible for season 2
Are the dumbest people on the planet
Literally every season 2 is fucking bad
Holy fuck like why do we keep giving them things that they should do but they end up doing the opposite
Fuck blizzard dude they are full of monkeys it was exactly the same in dragonflight s2
Can someone tell me why after vanishing into shadowstrike doesnt work on opener?
tell us how you really feel
Trinkets that don’t even kill a critter
no u
What do u want blue name guy
huh
hate is real
It happens every expansion
Idk what to tell you
Like
I reported it on ptr that all the trinkets suck balls
And they end up buffing useless trinkets from being extremely useless to useless
So they aren’t gonna do shit in both cases
what is the reason we dont macro symbols to shadowdance ?
!sod
Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
!macro
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.
U kinda want ur symbols to align with ur secret technique
you dont symbols right as you use your 2nd dance in opener, you want to symbols only when sectech is on <10 sec
LOOOL
so sectech is empowered by supercharge
Yea
your s2 tierset has a chance to delete winning streaks on finisher casts, you dont want to lose these stacks in ur cds. if you're in dance you dont lose stacks ever, so you chain dances 0.1 in cds, meaning you'll likely do dance-finish-build-finish-symbols+build @hard trellis
U want ur first sectec and last sectec to be empowered by supercharger
And they don’t usually align with that
GOTTEM
I am trying to add few buffs I want to track for my sub rogue. Is there a list with all spells and buffs I can check. Cba pressing spell remembering the correct name and what it does and then adding it to plater
What do I want to farm to replace transmitter now? Or is it still not nerfed enough?
Delves
what is the buffed called that supercharges finsiher
its been 10 minutes man
it isn't a buff
all it took for sub to die
you can, but its a little pointless
!wa
i believe some of these have an indicator for it
?????
think we need another 5-10% nerf
another 5-10% nerf and we play bench
Doubt transmitter nerf will "kill" us

I just hope that somehow sub won't be good in rwf so we can get the buff we deserved
they realized we cant have big pps and big numbers, so they fixed one of those
