the top utility weakaura has a sound queue for the refunds

full viper
#

can someone explain trickster gameplay in aoe in simple terms for me? or tell me if this is correct:
backstab/shadowstrike until target is fazed
then use ST builder and evis as spender?
until fazed is gone, then back to ST builder and black powder as spender?

hazy breach
#

If theres 7 or more mobs, your dances should be backstab>sectech>storm>BP> continue with strike/BP

#

(always use coup if its up)

full viper
#

outside dance, i do storm+evis? why / how to i activate nimble furry?

#

or is nimble flurry only relevant during dance?

leaden prairie
#

this sounds like padding

#

nice one stealthi

rustic mortar
#

i hope there will be a rogue buff 😮

ornate heron
#

Is the new 4p bugged ?

#

I just swapped over to it today and it seems weaker than old 4p?

rustic mortar
#

this will change

keen dome
#

I got a new personal best in a key today. Sub needs buffs. I need to do MORE damage.

#

It is not enough to do 33% of the entire keys damage. I need to be doing 50% of it

#

More big crits.

rustic mortar
#

i mean dont get me wrong st is fine but aoe feels kinda low wihout having flag up

#

either im doing something wrong but i couldnt pass 15m dps atm whle our dk / wl / ele are going for 20 / 25 (in aoe ofc)

#

Sim WM vs TFD in 2 mins and see how giga your boss dmg is. Boss fights are typically the easiest to get TFD up for.

tribal blade
#

TFD is pretty awesome in keys

shy ermine
#

Say you have 5 targets, why does backstab sectec strike evisc make more sense than strike sectec storm evisc?

lilac stag
#

We did a 10 top and it was crazy how often you could get the TFD buff up

shy ermine
#

To me the second sequence is strictly better

#

Am I missing something?

tribal blade
#

strike nimbling does a lot of damage

#

storm does very little damage

shy ermine
#

Both have 1 strike

#

The replacement is backstab for storm

#

Which applies fw on all targets and should be better in my mind

vestal escarp
#

The memest of the memelist

tribal blade
royal whale
#

is shadowcraft refunding points on a delay with coupdegrace intended

haughty mural
#

the spell itself is delayed

vale pine
haughty mural
#

so the refund will come after the last hit

royal whale
shy ermine
#

So it doesn’t eat extra rotten stacks

vale pine
#

exactly

#

the reason we use storm is BP tho

#

but we can take a quick look, because i assume with backstab we can question again "is it worth for a DM stack?"

shy ermine
#

If we’re using either backstab or storm for 1 DM charge on 5 targets, why wouldn’t it be storm instead?

#

Find weakness helps nimble damage too

hazy breach
#

Because storm doesnt proc unseen blades

#

Also backstab does more damage than storm

#

And since premed gives full cp anyway

#

The cp generation difference is irrelevant

shy ermine
#

That makes sense and could certainly be the reason why, would still surprise me if that outweighed the value of find weakness on targets for nimble flurry

haughty mural
#

you might overvalue fw

tepid trellis
#

what do you take me for?

vale pine
tepid trellis
#

a non dps goblin?

leaden prairie
#

I would never do that ngl

#

Actually

#

You know stealthi

#

Sometimes idk if I should be using bp or not

#

Like

#

Say I have 20 targets

#

But only 3 relevant target

tepid trellis
#

in high keys

leaden prairie
#

If I don't bp I risk nimble to go on the shitters

#

Instead of the prio

tepid trellis
#

yeh

vestal escarp
#

Put details vs ethical dps on the scale

leaden prairie
#

So would it be better to then bp so they die fast

tepid trellis
#

like BP does so close to Evis dmg

leaden prairie
#

And then I can nimble

tepid trellis
#

that i think BP is the way ngl

leaden prairie
#

Idk

#

I see

wild hornet
#

If i have sectec ready and flag on boss, but the boss gets moved away from freshly spawned adds, is it better to send cds for the adds or extend on boss off of flag

tepid trellis
#

only thing to note is

leaden prairie
#

But bp doesn't nimble

tepid trellis
#

BP as square root scaling

#

so with enough mobs

leaden prairie
#

Ye

tepid trellis
#

it doesent do alot per target

leaden prairie
#

It's 6 or 8

tepid trellis
#

where as evis does not

leaden prairie
#

8 right

tepid trellis
#

8

leaden prairie
#

Ye

#

Do you know how nimble works also

#

I assume it's the same as bf

#

It's around target

tepid trellis
#

yeh

leaden prairie
#

But then it's closest to the targets like bf right

#

The cleave part

tepid trellis
#

id think so yeh

vestal escarp
#

Around you

leaden prairie
#

It not being around you make it less reliable tho

#

As outlaw I can target a guy and stand on another

#

And I know for certain I will damage that guy

leaden prairie
#

Nimble is target

vestal escarp
#

Not sure at this point

tepid trellis
#

nimble is

#

like BF

#

its exactly like BF

leaden prairie
#

Around you?

tepid trellis
#

reskinned BF

#

yeh

vestal escarp
#

We've been telling eachother thats its around you since tww release

leaden prairie
#

Oh what

vestal escarp
#

You do you

leaden prairie
#

I thought it was around target

tepid trellis
#

thats only spatter

leaden prairie
#

Ye

#

Ok

vestal escarp
#

Nah thats the sin stuff

leaden prairie
#

That changes stuffa

#

I might have been trolling

#

I was using sin brain when I should have been using outlaw brain

#

Eta gg

tepid trellis
#

its very important to actually play around it

#

on stuff like Rik riverb

#

for example

plush roost
#

Rika-rika-rik reverb to you bud

tepid trellis
#

that boss pisses me off

wild hornet
#

I had a bit more optimism for my parses

stiff stirrup
#

guys quick question for big AOE packs in the opener do we not care about find weakness on all targets before we SecTec?

tepid trellis
#

sectech is like 75% shadow dmg

#

so not really

stiff stirrup
#

we dont care about FW for black powder or nimble flurry either?

#

I mean do we ever shuriken storm other than CP generation?

hazy breach
#

Which is neat

hazy breach
#

Not that much for nimble no

stiff stirrup
#

ok gotcha

tepid trellis
hazy breach
#

Or well, for nimble you really need your target to have fw up

rustic mortar
#

we we playing arround the new tierset or dont give a fuck

hazy breach
#

But the other targets doesnt matter that much

tepid trellis
#

to annihilate barrels

hazy breach
#

Did you guys kill him

tepid trellis
#

nah

#

saw end of p2

#

it can very much die tmrw tho

hazy breach
#

We still have gallly & second boss left so probably not gonna get much time on rik, but maybe, who knows

native zodiac
#

We might kill him tonight

#

Dagger Prayge

tepid trellis
#

that boss is a fcking joke

#

the "enrage" doesent even fcking exist

hazy breach
#

Ye probably gonna take longer to clear trash to it

tame stone
#

is there any way to boost just a WA sound?

alpine wraith
#

cauldron of carnage?

hazy breach
tepid trellis
#

cauldrop of we forgot to add dmg to the enrage effect

hazy breach
#

Since its 90s between each cleave phase

#

But the first one is at 60s, so its a bit cringe

tepid trellis
rustic mortar
#

we we playing arround the new tierset or dont give a fuck

tepid trellis

  • i dont really wanna stand inbetween the two bosses

*are we

tribal blade

#

what i did is save the dance i would send at 30 secs or so after first sets of cds

#

and send 2 there

tribal blade

@vale pine following up from yesterday about 1 handers and crafts. I sent my dagger craft. I did a craft with different missive, different ilvl (rank 4 & rank 5) and different embellishment. None of it worked to skip crests on a second dagger. The ring still worked as of last night.

native zodiac
tepid trellis
#

timers arent really that good for it

#

they are gonna dip midway your burst

leaden prairie
native zodiac
#

I guess but you also wont lose a set by doing it

alpine wraith
#

yea no idea how M changes things

tepid trellis
#

they hit the center at
1:15
2:49
4:24
5:59
7:34

alpine wraith
#

remember you have to be looking at rik

#

for evasion to work

tribal blade
#

it looks like the #1 parse on cauldron the dude is doing absolutely nothing to play around the clash

subtle jay
#

pretty much so

alpine wraith
#

well sub is very rng

#

so just proc

subtle jay
#

also you can use cloak to remove stacking debuffs and just keep dmging same boss

void ocean
#

yea, if u have another rogue on the other side who does the same

#

otherwise ur balance might be fcked up

tepid trellis
#

who has more than 1 rogue in the roster

#

lol

void ocean
#

fair

tribal blade
#

rogues are so rare these days

lilac stag
#

we’re so back though!

native zodiac
#

Are we Cluegi

alpine wraith
#

we have 3

#

well not for long

void ocean
#

I dont think i've ever enjoyed more playing sub

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

my sarcasm tag didn’t trigger.

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

yeah we're now the sin chat

alpine wraith
#

nah sub is back to rigor mortis

#

now that people found out dh/ww/war/ret are better in raid/m+

#

and lots of people will play assa anyway

lilac stag
#

duh

tribal blade
#

yeah i have very little expectations that sub will stay on top

#

BUT

#

we're used to it

alpine wraith
#

we already get rinsed in mid hc to m entry lvls

#

yea it is what it is

#

wait until we get 4p they say

tribal blade
#

liquid literally sat their rogue

alpine wraith
#

oh wait they also get theirs

#

well stix does dmg but you just use cds

vestal escarp
#

garf_sit sin buffs waiting room garf_sit

lilac stag
#

trickster is fun, but it’s still just cute compared to what others can rip.

tribal blade
#

they need to do something about how atrophic works

#

it's kinda bullshit

#

that it straight up doesn't work on some fights

lilac stag
#

what happens first, assa buffs or mythic boss nerfs?

rain stratus
#

Assa buffs unfortunately, followed by another SecTech nerf

#

🙂

alpine wraith
#

they already did the round of pvp nerfs i expected too

#

to it all comes a full circle

lilac stag
tribal blade
alpine wraith
#

it was written in the stars

tulip gorge
#

damn First Dance is actually quite sick

ornate heron
#

It's the new 4p currently bugged ?

lilac stag
#

can you be specific?

real rain
#

!craft

lilac stag
keen dome
ornate heron
#

Just wondering if there are any known bugs? I swapped from my old 4p to new 4p today and it doesn't seem like it does more damage?

keen dome
#

Hell yeah, got hero pants off Stix.

#

Now to sit on those until reset

clever delta
#

Every time I press evis outside the dance i stare at my tier set stacks and praying to not consume... it really drive me crazy

tulip gorge
ornate heron
#

Not really. Just happy when I get to dance with high stacks and sad when I don't

tulip gorge
#

well there's your problem kekdog

ornate heron
#

So I have to hold CDs until my stacks get higher?

civic forge
#

rupture instead of evis before cds to not consume it

tulip gorge
#

no, as far as I'm aware you should try to keep your stacks at max if you are close to flag window

molten citrus
#

I thought that wasn’t a gain anymore

alpine wraith
#

overall it is whatever

tulip gorge
#

for m+ it's definitely worth doing the rupture thing

alpine wraith
#

but i aint doing 100000 pulls on a boss to get lucky or unlucky

#

so if i see high stacks and cds come

#

evis/sec tech takes a backseat

tulip gorge
#

but I wouldn't know, I still don't have 4p Aggy

#

the joys of being a trial

alpine wraith
#

i have 0p dont worry too ahaha

tulip gorge
#

funny thing is I still outperform people with 4p

clever delta
#

I was lucky with many zenith drops

tulip gorge
#

and I am still not a prio for tier

ornate heron
#

So in m+ when we go into pulls I just spread ruptures until 8 and then pop CDs?

tribal blade
#

no don't wait for tier

#

just send when pull is gathered

tulip gorge
#

so you basically just do your dance windows as normal

#

by the end of it you have a high number of stacks, right

tepid trellis
tribal blade
#

if you're not unlucky yes

tulip gorge
#

if you know you're going to fight a new pack soon, it's worth just rupturing

#

so you don't lose your stacks

#

and you can start your new dance window with 8 stacks

#

which is a lot of burst

tepid trellis
#

regular dances dont really matter

#

its more important for the flag window

clever delta
#

If you played enha it's same basically as holding tempest

ornate heron
#

Ah ok sounds good.. just try to get 8 stacks for the flag window in the previous pack but if I can't then just send it anyways got it .

tribal blade
#

to me it seems like using rupture 1-2 finishers from cd set is the sweet spot in ST

tulip gorge
#

so how bad are we getting nerfed boys

hazy breach
#

Probably not at all if i had to guess

ornate heron
#

Also for the guys that do sims. Have we looked into why pacemaker and priory trinket combo simming super weird and low?

keen dome
tribal blade
#

sub is performing well but it's not a huge outlier

gleaming plank
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
ornate heron
#

It's popping priory trinket around 26 seconds after blades and flag fall off

tulip gorge
hazy breach
#

But its because pacemaker is bugged in sims and counts as an on-use for certain things

ornate heron
#

Priory is all I have 😭

hazy breach
#

I mean

#

It doesnt matter ingame

tribal blade
#

watching the tier stacks has been anxiety inducing in some ways

tulip gorge
ornate heron
#

I played assa last season so Im upgrading my skardyns grace to that

tribal blade
ornate heron
#

But for some reason my 639 skardyns grace sims higher than 655 priory

hazy breach
#

Well, and i qoute "WW does what rogue does except better in every way" kek

ornate heron
#

Even when numbers tell me that it shouldn't?

tulip gorge
#

this reworked version of sub is just so much fun

hazy breach
#

Or go and get the pvp trinket

keen dome
#

give us ring of peace but it works inversely

#

Shadowtrap

ornate heron
#

What ilvl is pvp trinket?

hazy breach
#

Upto 658

keen dome
#

yeah

leaden prairie
#

It guarantee us a spot

#

Right guys

twin surge
keen dome
#

Actually our raid buff is the no parry

#

Just convince all the warriors that we are integral

leaden prairie
#

No way you ever bench your atro guy right

#

Guys

hazy breach
#

But the hotline is decent

keen dome
#

I want the goon squad...

tulip gorge
#

doesn't RWF use rogue for atro? LOLW

shy scarab
molten citrus
#

depends on the fight

shy scarab
#

Haha

alpine wraith
#

dont worry with how much dmg gally vomits every 20 secs

#

we are safe for him

#

other bosses?

#

well

molten citrus
#

so far they only benched rogue for stix

clever delta
#

Man I passed on hotline trinket because pacemaker was sommimg the same. Did I grief myself ?

alpine wraith
#

stix is the only one where you just cd it

tulip gorge
#

I honestly expected them to run double sub rogues

alpine wraith
#

also a lot of dmg comes from the adds that are spread too

keen dome
#

Stix feels fucking nightmareish as a melee with windows

tulip gorge
#

and I'm happy they didn't

native zodiac
brisk onyx
#

a little question, is it still worth the spam rupture to keep the stack until the flag/blade arrives in ST?

alpine wraith
#

sprocked is same as stix kinda

#

you just use healing cds

#

so your -200k dps rogue

#

is just waiting on the bench for one armed

molten citrus
native zodiac
molten citrus
#

not unless your next flag/blades lines up with a damage amp or adds afaik

native zodiac
#

Rogue will defo be played in slot machine, mugzee and gally imo

molten citrus
alpine wraith
#

we dont really know

molten citrus
#

so thats somethin

keen dome
#

I think they are going to play ten Sub rogues on gallywix

shy scarab
#

Feint to op

molten citrus
keen dome
#

oh damn, true

clever delta

ture

molten citrus

So they killed trash boss?

#

Cool

leaden prairie
alpine wraith
#

healers very stron this tier

clever delta
#

The same day sims

alpine wraith
#

so they can just muscle through

#

but dps important

tulip gorge
alpine wraith
#

so you cant muscle through rogue inting

shy crown
#

is it worth playing sub even without transmitter for m+

clever delta
#

You can play it as 2m class and be fine

#

If it's worth or not I don't know

tulip gorge
onyx parcel
#

!wax

wicked joltBOT
shy crown
#

yeah maybe.. assa feels nice too with funnel

tulip gorge
#

if only assa in ST wasn't complete garbage

vestal escarp
#

It isnt, really

shy crown
#

yeah pure st boss its bad

#

but not horrible

tulip gorge
#

it's awful to play LOLW

molten citrus
shy crown
#

outlaw is amazing st but huge packs does tank damage

#

havent tried ks build yet tho

molten citrus
#

there's a few people playing trickster outlaw that def never do tank damage

tulip gorge
#

in huge pulls yeah you do tank damage

#

but pugs almost never do those

shy crown
#

yeah need to try trickster

tulip gorge
#

so outlaw is still very good

#

trickster is great, you just have to be careful with killing spree

tribal blade
#

sub right now is doing amazing ST and amazing aoe in keys

shy crown
tribal blade
#

perfectly balanced

hazy breach
#

I mean sub absolutely crushes dungeon ST

shy crown
#

with damage amp bet its nuts

hazy breach
#

Even without

tribal blade
#

you can gap people by a huge margin

#

it's actually hilarious

shy crown
#

probably getting nerfed soon so i dont wanna craft anything yet

tribal blade
#

it's like enhance gapping people last season

vestal escarp
#

Yeah current kill timers for 11s and 12s really favor 90s cds

pliant sigil
#

Can someone explain me please this part in aoe rotation? Why are we using shuriken storm when flawless form is up. Aren't we suppose to use backstab so it can cleave with nimble flurry. Is it because we know for certain that unseen blade is on cd during 1 stack of flawless form so we spam shuriken storm instead to gain many cp?

molten citrus
#

already caught a couple nerfs

tribal blade
#

the last time i did a 11 cinderbrew i did ~500k more ST damage on the 1st boss than my enhance and fire mage

tulip gorge
vestal escarp
#

Sub got it's tuning already

molten citrus
#

if it isn't insane in raid we are fine

vestal escarp
#

Nothing new coming unless it's doing silly things in raid

#

Imo

tulip gorge
#

remember in DF season 3 where they nerfed assa like 3 weeks in a row

molten citrus
#

and raid seems quite balanced atm

hazy breach
vestal escarp
#

It all changes when you try to push and timers get to 3:00 3:30

vale pine
#

flawless form procs from unseen blades

#

and unseen blades does not proc from shuriken storm

tribal blade
#

my final wishlist for trickster is they add UB to storm

pliant sigil
vale pine
#

you have flawless form up most of the time

#

so even if you don't do the backstab its fine

#

its a very small optimization

tribal blade
#

i started letting nimble drop in aoe outside cds no matter the target count and just storm>bping in keys

vale pine
#

also most of your damage is in cooldowns, you also have it up ^^

tribal blade
#

to see what it was like

rugged condor
#

Fuu is there any optimization for holding coup? I've been holding it if cds are up in like 10s or so

tribal blade
#

seems much better for cdr

vale pine
frozen lichen
#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

but its worth like 0.2% dps

#

you would do the BP trick again basically

#

so ~20 secounds before flag comes off cd not use evis

rugged condor
#

Pog

broken ermine
#

Has anyone been doing delves as sub and have brann completely take threat as healer but only when they shadow dance? I think there's a bug that the game is treating stealth from shadow dance as actual stealth and you just completely lose threat and healer Brann gets pounded and you're basically solo

tribal blade
broken ermine
#

Is it a talent?

tribal blade
#

nah it's just built into dance

broken ermine
#

So sub is just bad for delves

tribal blade
#

sub is great for delves

#

it's just turbo annoying to chase mobs around while they're aggroed to him

#

you can swap him to tank

lilac stag
#

Sub is great in delves for a non pet dps class

tribal blade
#

then he'll stand still

broken ermine
#

He doesnt heal himself as tank though

lilac stag
#

you do kinda need to use your toolkit and not just press and hold W

tribal blade
#

brann is just an asshole

#

who'll point at you when he fucks up a pull

#

most toxic wow player

hollow spear
leaden prairie
broken ermine
#

It's kinda mad that this is just the way it is and sub has to play delves differently or not at all considering they made changes so healers could do delves easier

tulip gorge
tribal blade
#

i think most people find it w/e because delves aren't "real" content

#

i find it infurtiating too, but i don't lose much sleep over it

real rain
#

what embelishment is the best on dagger?

tribal blade
#

so ascendance or focusing lens or dusk lining

#

ascendance is the best for overall all content and multispeccing

hollow spear
#

I just use the sin bleed build in delves

#

And swap to sub on boss

#

I heard hof rogues switch to ww in delves

#

The trick is to then never swap back to rogue at all

slate lantern
#

ww is fun

#

kinda itches that "hittin buttons" vibe that i miss from outlaw

How long does farming 10k honor take?

Anyone have any good WA’s made for tracking the S2 tier set? I was going to tinker around with one and wanted to see if anybody has done any of the legwork first

hollow spear
#

If you don't have hands

vestal escarp
#

Not for sub

vocal lantern
#

is our 4p a big enough difference though? iirc its a very small percentage of gain

haughty mural
#

11%

hazy breach
#

Its a fine set

haughty mural
#

yes

molten citrus
#

almost 1k honor per win

brisk raptor
wild vine
#

Basically the same

molten citrus
#

if you already have the neck

#

prolly 2-3hrs if you don't lose too many of the BGs

#

it sucks they didn't give us a Comp Stomp brawl at the beginning of this season KEKL makes it easy to farm honor vs NPCs

tribal blade
#

wtf i didn't realize we literally don't have a single good neck available this tier

molten citrus
#

can prob craft a neck with sparks later right

hazy breach
#

yep

fallow nimbus
#

Since lens can be put on neck maybe a crafted one isn't that bad

hazy breach
#

But it also doesnt matter that much, some crit is good

#

And there the crit+vers neck

tribal blade
#

true yeah

#

i passed up rolling on that neck because i thought i could get a better one elsewhere

vale pine
tribal blade
#

the mugzee neck is actually ok

#

+0.7% at base ilvl for me

wild vine
#

Unless raidloot/crafting

lilac stag
#

the raid options are good. No one else wants them

tribal blade
#

yeah literally noone else wants vers/mast

#

i never ever have competition over vers mast gear in raid

fallow nimbus
#

In hc and normal we dropped 3 leather pieces kekw

#

All with haste

We dropped none so far

#

And 1 specific tierpiece

you might need to wait a bit to see some sub gameplay

maybe one armed bandit will ahve some

so use lense

Sub on team , assa on pug

the pb of sub on M+ atm is u have hight CD , if tank don't play arounde your cd

fallen fable

u gonna do 0 dps

if tank play for you , you zerg the key

you wont but that's ok

I literally did a few +10s yesterday with different pugs. None of them played around my CD's or gave any shits. Many pulls were fked up and I was First in DPS in every single Key. Idk about that 😂 sub is in a good spot right now

trust me when u start to deal with some 12-13 u need tank to play for ur cd

or its over

molten citrus
#

i mean are we talking about right now or end of season bis

#

ah

lilac stag
#

in 10s you can manage your cds it's more than fine

and boss dmg destroys assa

but just blame tank

that's fine

most of pull is

But thats pretty much only cinderbrew

fallen fable

w/e its all about tank anyway

lilac stag
#

2-3 you can blast

#

nimble do work

gritty knot
#

It's literally about u and not tanks. U need to check the route, react to new situations and decide if it's worth to use cd's for 3 mobs or maybe wait for next packt or Boss. Cant blame anyone else for that. U can play Sub mid and just do whatever and still do good DMG. Or u start thinking while doing Keys and adapt to different situations and do really good DMG. I would never blame Tanks for that 😂

fallen fable
#

when u have ur 1.5 CD

#

and tank pull 3 mob

#

then 3 mob

then again 3

lilac stag

some places like in rookery you kinda need to do those pulls tho

you cant pull 6 void guys

that is a death sentence

Just send cds tho

and if you're pulling 3, those still need to die, and rotate your cds so someone else has next pull

When are you supposed to stop putting up rupture on targets? I am thinking about a pull like workshop first pull

Pro Tip: Check and track other peoples CDs

u only rupture

without cd

!design

wicked joltBOT
#

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

Guides seem a little bit split on when to storm instead of shadowstrike. When does storm take prio?

#

Both inside and outside of dance

its not perfect, specifically simming TFD but its good enough for gearing

good enough is good enough :p

has rogue ever had a season where some thing wasnt bugged lol? kinda nutty, like even with shuriken storm, we have to use it on the second combo point gen from symbols bc it takes all your stacks of rotten? gotta give so much credit to the people who figure all this shit out lol

!tfd when? @hazy breach

so i can go back and read abiut every thing and still not really understand it lmao

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.

anything to track or consider for coup the grace? or just forget and send?

i've read up some guides now. do we actually use technique outside of dance when a sod is up? im ass confused

so we get rupture up before we evis and get SnD up huh

oh wow so we dont have snd up until after we use our first Secert tech

lilac stag
void ocean

did snd ever matter in so many targets

lilac stag

you'll literally have snd rolling

#

and no it doesnt matter

signal heath
#

ah that is true, yea your right but when i was reading it im just thinking as if it was a prepull with no snd up

#

but makes sense

#

but even the single target one that involves a 20 sec prepull timer

#

your not evis until after ST anyway, so this is mindful of not havig snd already up

tepid trellis
#

the 7 seconds without SnD dont really matter

signal heath
#

yea id imagine it doesnt matter, since this is what they are saying to do. im just so use to getting snd up asap historically on rogue

tepid trellis
#

for what its worth

#

the old opener

swift tinsel

this is the only point it would really matter and it doesn't

tepid trellis

is neutral to this

swift tinsel

ye

tidal copper
#

I’m having a hard time in situations where I have to hold CDs to line up with some kind of mechanic or phase. Is it just backstab to not energy cap and evis at max CP? Seems like everything else is tied to a CD

void ocean
#

i wanted to ask, didnt we evis after flag in the opener

swift tinsel
#

you did, but its entirely dps neutral to skip the vanish-rupture and just rupture instead

proven plover
#

I like saving the vanish tbh

signal heath
#

oh yea, i swore some thing changed since the last time i read the rota

swift tinsel
#

if you pull all snd logic out of the apl it just plays normally and you lose nothing

proven plover

in some cases it could even result in a gain if u can use it for movement or to fully build cps in some edge cases

below 655 and you arent even playing the game

does anyone know what this chart represents on simulationcraft?

is it how much damage it does in relation to the number of times its cast?

random hare

Idk haven’t logged in since yesterday

is there any thing that extends the rupture dot? i think it said reapply if its >9 secs?

if you cast before that 9 second mark, you will essentially waste resources casting rupture
