the bs macro doesn't work with subterfuge

lucid jackal
#

Stats scale differently with raw value

gritty knot
#

guys, whats the fastest way to farm those conquest points for the trinket? i literally never play PvP at all

thick temple
#

Yeah how come on the screenshot the value is same but percentage not am I misunderstanding something

lucid jackal
#

Raw value doesn't convert 1-1 for each stat

Man in s1 I just stacked mastery

lucid jackal
#

Well it's the same as last season

fallow nimbus
#

will this work like the macro from the bot command?

lucid jackal
#

U just stack mastery and vers

thick temple
#

My Sims last season told me to spam vers onyx's but now I use mast sapphires

#

At least for current mid gear

fallow nimbus
#

since dance has its duration as gcd it should work fine

lucid jackal
fallow nimbus
#

dance and subterfuge are stance:2, interesting

hazy breach
#

It genuinely does not matter

pulsar gate
#

Okay sub Kinda easy

cobalt monolith
#

Hi the race on the sub rogue is important or not pls ?

paper iron
#

race arnt that much important in wow unless you do specific content where racials / 0.2% dps matters

#

since you re asking the question, i would assume you re not, so just pick for preference Surebud

#

well a bit more than 0.2% currently, here have the sim of races, on the bis profile

alpine wraith
#

racials do matter if you play one that sucks

#

but the upper ones are close

#

like undead and earthen are natty -2% dps

#

oh it seems it is only 1,6 there at least not as bad

blissful gale
#

!wa

paper iron
#

crazy to see undead rogue being so bad 😔

#

it s kinda the essence of OG roleplayer rogues

alpine wraith
#

and this was after a buff

#

used to be worse

cobalt monolith
#

ok thanks

small pagoda
#

What does vanish do in the opener

#

I see it used in a ton of logs

#

Is it just to cover the 1-2 presses before flang?

#

i tought it wasnt worth to hold the stacks for your cds

paper iron
#

holding stacks = 4.2b dps

#

secret has been leaked

broken dirge
#

New to sub and heard sub likes the shaman buff, what exactly does it do for us?

lucid jackal
#

Give combo points

swift tinsel
#

lmao 4.2bil dps

leaden prairie
#

ignore the number

#

uh

#

things happened

paper iron
#

ego energy in outlaw channel happened Surebud but yea the rupture thing is questionnable

#

but also what did u change zac, cant be just evis scaling

swift tinsel
#

Did you change the logic to rupture only at flag cd <35 or something?

leaden prairie
#

no i didnt touch the apl

#

thats why im asking lol

swift tinsel
#

hm

leaden prairie
#

ignore the number thats irreelvant

swift tinsel
#

No i'm looking at the timing of when it switches from evisc to rupture

#

2nd flag is up at 2:03 and it starts rupturing at 1:22

#

so almost 40sec of pure rupturing

paper iron
#

oh a non rigged sim i dont have that, i just have these 2 but why not

leaden prairie
#

well its a sample

paper iron
#

u werent even at 8 stacks where it could have acted weird

swift tinsel
#

p sure the old-old 4pc logic was to start rupturing at 40

paper iron
#

yea definitly looks like it

hazy breach
#

I have no idea why its doing more than like 10 seconds of rupture

#

And delaying flag by like 30 seconds

swift tinsel
#

You've also somehow enabled a crazy uptime on supercharger

paper iron
#

also go up your jobs zac wtf is that

#

loser

#

i asked him

#

alpine wraith
#

in theory he did not touch apl

swift tinsel
#

lmfao

paper iron
alpine wraith
#

if all finishers were charged

hazy breach
paper iron
#

yea that s the thing

#

i dont see what he changed kekdog

alpine wraith
#

1300 ivl might make things weird

paper iron
#

i m digging but i m just washed up at digging sims

#

yea idk

#

how could that have change the apl tho

swift tinsel
#

somehow able to bs-finish constantly

#

Having Supercharge as a Constant Buff might affect things lol

paper iron
#

yea idk i ve digged it s too hidden for me to figure out what happened, gg zac u won

#

back to spamming rupture to get this billions dps

fallow nimbus
#

don't forget your /startattack in the backstab macro

gritty knot
#

is that mugzee trinket any good for sub?

alpine wraith
#

it does dmg

#

decent

lucid jackal
#

The thug shaker hotline is p decent

gritty knot
#

nice, i am simming it rn. got azerrok on 662, eye of kezan on 658 and now this thug shaker on 658. still 400/500 in que in sims, lets see what it says ^^

alpine wraith
#

all passive trinkets are whatever really

#

amorphous relic had promise for M+ but people found out the 1 min timer does not reset on leaving combat

#

so DoA

#

sadly drink and amplifier are only delve

#

so they cap at hero track

paper iron
#

azerok might be bad because it s a random proc right? If it procs outside cds it s gg. Kezan will probably be better in mythic prog, the ramping part and stuff. I heard thug did good so i wouldnt be suprised it it was your top sim. That s my assumption feelcrafted, let s see what the sim says

#

kezan looks not so bad in keys either rn

#

surpisingly

alpine wraith
#

problem with azerokk is it is super rng

#

it is not a bad trink

gritty knot
#

it says azerrok is best, eye of kezan -1000 dps aroundish and thug 40k less 😄

alpine wraith
#

just you will rage when it procs just after you dance

paper iron
#

40k less? monkaW

alpine wraith
#

azerok is myth track

#

tbh it is a good trink

#

when it procs on cds you will feel it

paper iron
#

isnt azerok a mastery stat trinket tho? Shouldnt be a raelly big difference even if it s mythic 🤔

gritty knot
#

its not mythic its hero track but 662

paper iron
#

but that s feelcrafting, what do i do when i can just ask raidbot

alpine wraith
#

ah then yea it is good anyway

#

kezan is better on longer fights but tbh there are none this tier

#

unless you do later M bosses

gritty knot
#

which one would u use in m+? most sub rogues it seems use that crit trinket

#

idk the name

gritty knot
#

wait. sorry. I did a mistake idk why the fk it simmed dungeon slice. Now I did Patchwerk and Eye of Kezan 558 ilv is 5.570 dps better than my 662 azerrok and thug hotline 658 is only 3577 dps worse than 662 azerrok. sorry

tawdry shell
#

hello, i'm watching for cast sequences of better rogues to understand why do i suck at sub and i have issues to understand this kind of set up i see frequently, is backstab queued just before sending shadow dance ? and what is this for i cant firgure out the point

paper iron
#

that s a frequent question

#

u can dance backstab to generate one more dance macabre stack

paper iron
#

but u dont sod because it would rotten the backstab, and u rather having it on strike

#

hacha always here to carry

alpine wraith
#

likely it is also explained in many of the written guides

#

!guide

wicked joltBOT
pulsar gate
#

Any good videos on rotatio

paper iron
#

And stealthi if u want in raid fights

#

that would be my recommandation

tawdry shell
#

okok thx

pulsar gate
#

our rotation is easy right?

#

bc it feels easy

#

Opener then strike to evis

alpine wraith
#

well it is complicated but not hard

#

you need to do things in the right order and keep doing them

pulsar gate
#

Yeah after opener I just line up SD and symbols

hazy breach
#

Timing your dance+symbols is complicated

pulsar gate
#

Sec tech and build to evis

#

When dance runs out and I have 1 charge but symbols has 4 seconds left

#

Do I wait to refresh

hazy breach
#

You do not symbols unless sectech has less than 10 seconds cd left

#

Because then you would be wasting supercharger on non-sectech finishers

pulsar gate
#

how does supercharger work

alpine wraith
#

it makes the finisher act as if it had 3 extra combo points onto it

#

after using SoD

#

has 2 charges when used

pulsar gate
#

I think I’m missing a bunch of nuances

#

And hence why I think ez

#

so you don’t need to build all the way with it then?

obtuse phoenix
#

how long does a target need to live for rupture to be worth casting over evisc?

paper iron
#

as i always say, to me sub isnt hard to play, the hard stuff is to understand why we do what we do and how stuff synergise together. Most question in here are like "is sub even doign shadow damage outside of blades" and stuff like that

blissful gale
#

so

#

we craft neck

#

yeah?

muted frigate
#

what is the fastest way to gather enough honor for the pvp neck?

#

eh

#

conquest

alpine wraith
#

you can always sim depends on the people i crafted head for example because i got the pvp neck

#

as for conquest i just did epic bgs but someone said there are crate farming groups

#

every 15 mis a crate drops that gives some conq

muted frigate
#

i remember those

#

when does the "win" bonus reset?

#

daily or weekly?

pulsar gate
#

of knowing what to do when is the skill cap

#

?

paper iron
#

hacha, about the disorienting strike, do i have to sectech inside the dungeon or i can use it outside and i ll keep the buff when entering the dungeon?

alpine wraith
#

anywhere

#

i do it sometimes on the dornogal dummies

#

or just on a random mob after using the dungeon portal

#

just cheapshot sec tech

alpine wraith
#

arenas i dont remember

muted frigate
#

ty

vocal crypt
#

which trinkets for m+ ?

#

i got the Pacemaker, Honey Buzzer and the Sigil of Algari ... When i sim it on Dungeon Slice they are nearly the same .. But on wowhead the Sigil of Algari should be trash 😄

alpine wraith
#

well none of those are excepional

#

ideally you use a trinket like transmitter house of cards or the pvp trinket

#

then another passive one like pacemaker

vocal crypt
#

yeah i have to wait till 11.5 for house of cards

#

im not raiding at all 😄

slim chasm
alpine wraith
#

priory with pacemaker is a bit krangled

#

just believe priory is better

slim chasm
#

right

#

makes 0 sense

#

well there is a fix on #tc-research and maybe they have pushed to latest or try nightly

time to do some pvp 🙂

signal heath
#

damn 4 pc is a big dmg inc huh

#

going into your middle of fight burst, do we wait for full stacks from flag before sending every thing... i know conditions with rupture apply and timings, just wondering how much a different in dmg it is if you just send all together or let flag tick first

tepid trellis
#

no you dont stack flag before hand

#

it just happens as you go

#

doesent take alot to stack it

signal heath
#

got you thanks

#

yea i still dont fully understand every thing but a good enough idea to be pumping decent, hype for next lockout to see how much i improved

edgy zenith
#

do we still have the extra raid buff or did they fix that?

#

also what change made it so it is worth playing around danse macabre now?

#

seems kinda random that it's a gain now compared to last patch

tepid trellis
#

premed giving full cps

#

and us being more burst oriented

edgy zenith
#

ohhhhhh i forgot premed

#

forgot it wasnt' full CP last patch

tepid trellis
#

it got added after they took away shadowdust iirc

edgy zenith
#

wait so we did have it last patch

#

i guess just more bursty so the 6% is better?

#

weird

#

also, it is WILD to me that it's not a gain to play around your 4set

tepid trellis
#

it was before they nerfed it to hell

edgy zenith
#

like there ain't no way I'm sending an evis 15s before flag

#

even if it's a "loss"

#

I don't believe it

tepid trellis
#

on "avg" it doesent matter

hazy breach
#

I mean its only 15%

#

So the vast majority of the time that evis is just free damage

edgy zenith
#

like an unbuffed evis is like 1mil

#

there's no way the extra stacks don't add up to 1mil

alpine wraith
#

well it is a risk you take

hazy breach
#

Again, most of the time you dont lose them

alpine wraith
#

calculated lets say

edgy zenith
#

mmm

#

ye

tepid trellis
#

you also gain stacks quite fast in dance

#

if you arent horribly unlucky

hazy breach
#

Second sectech usually has 6 or so anyway ye

#

Even if you start at 0

tepid trellis
#

yeh usually i end up around 6

#

or 8

#

i have had a few where im only at 4 tho

edgy zenith
#

i don't have 4set yet, but sometimes I'm staring at my stacks at 8 right before my flag and I'm like do I REALLY want to risk this?

tepid trellis
#

its 16% dmg

#

at 8

#

and 16% shadow dmg ontop with 4set

edgy zenith
#

that's a fuckton, no?

#

assuming it don't bug on sectech

#

lmao

tepid trellis
#

well thats comparing it to 0 stacks

#

which dont happen

#

you will get stacks during it

edgy zenith
#

but your first sectech is like 8M

#

that's big dam going in with 8 stacks

rugged condor
#

If blades is ~20s from coming up we hold coup proc still yeah? And just bp

edgy zenith
edgy zenith
#

wait we're BPing ST?

tepid trellis
#

its for flag tho

edgy zenith
#

actually?

hazy breach
#

Not really no

tepid trellis
#

you can hold coup for flag windows

#

but thats the only time you can do it

edgy zenith
#

so it's a gain to hold coup for flag and BP instead if flag is coming up?

#

but not enouigh to put in the guides

alpine wraith
#

it is not a huge win either but it is something you can do

edgy zenith
#

?

#

super secret hidden tech?

alpine wraith
#

mostly neutral

keen trellis
#

It is in the guide, but its very minor optimization

tepid trellis
#

its like the same as backstab in dance

alpine wraith
#

0.2% a bit weaker iirc

edgy zenith
#

i mean, I'll take it.

alpine wraith
#

or 0.3 i dont remember but it does not happen that often

edgy zenith
#

i yearn for the small optimizations

swift tinsel
#

its in the wowhead guide

tepid trellis
#

double coup bursts feel nice tho

alpine wraith
#

havent done a side by side apl thingy for a while maybe with more gear now and tier set things are a bit more than 0.3

#

Does Slice and Dice dropping actually happen at all? or can I just not track it

hazy breach
#

You can just skip tracking it ye

tidal copper
#

is there a need to track the two empowered CP at all?

tepid trellis
#

not if you have mental note of when you pressed SoD compared to when you pressing sectech

hazy breach
#

Not really, besides the small opt of making sure you have 2 of them up prepull

tidal copper
#

yeah i have another WA to remind me to get them after a death so they're up pre-pull

#

used to have to do stuff like that for WW so its an easy adaptation

#

how do you guys time signet

#

since it has 30s+ more cd than flag/shadow blades

fallen crescent
alpine wraith
#

on pull then at 3 mins etc

full viper
#

do we spread find weakness in aoe?

#

because with opener we never shuriken storm, except after CDs?

#

also, do we spread rupture?

lucid jackal
#

spread ruptures while gathering or after cds

full viper
#

and do we finish on 5cp? or only 6+?

lucid jackal
#

spread fw on 7 targets with 1 storm after sod

full viper
#

even during SD?

lucid jackal
#

specifically on 7 or more targets yes

#

Rotten will apply it to all so

full viper
#

thanks

#

and finishing on 5? or only 6 7 ?

lucid jackal
#

6+

full viper
#

thank you!

#

doesnt that mean that CB/ST hits before we applied FW?

hazy breach
#

Like 80% of sectechs damage is shadow

#

So it doesnt matter

Can you seriously not post a ticket and get some GM support for this? This is legitimately the shit that would make someone unsub and quit for the season

#

You’re just permanently behind 20 weapon iLvLs in your main hand unless you get a myth track dagger this week

#

Gms arent there to protect you from yourself

#

In vault or raid somehow

vagrant sinew

the ingame UI helps with it plenty

yeah thats why you see a preview of what youre sending the crafting order out

and why you have to confirm when you buy stuff with currency from vendors

and that stuff doesnt get refunded

why are you here?? arent you supposed to be an outlaw?

lucid jackal

crafting a neck*

#

Neck is a good craft by endgame cuz theres really no alternative this tier

#

But just getting a pvp neck and crafting smthing like bracers/cape is a good idea

lucid jackal
#

Its 525 conquest for a very long term upgrade which takes like

#

Less than 10 2s wins

#

U can do like, 3 sets of daily wins in EBGs, BGs and the brawl and be done with it

#

but if u just dont even wanan do that then yeah probs craft a neck

how good is signet of the priory for sub rogue? i see its not listed under best trinkets but skardyns grace from last season is simming better than most trinkets on that list and its 30 ilvl down and basically the same as signet of the prioryh

#

Pvp trink simmed 65k higher for me than 658 priory and 639 skardyns

#

658 pvp trink^

brisk creek
#

which one is that?

fringe ruin
#

Hello. Very general question perhaps…. But looking into rogue. While I like the class, it also seems quite involved to actually play it well. So in that sense is subtlety difficult to pick up ? Or would perhaps assassination or outlaw better? Mainly looking for keys

brisk creek
#

sub is easiest by far (imo)

#

assass hardest

karmic hull
#

Prized Gladiators Badge of Ferocity

#

It costs 700 conquest

zenith hollow
#

do you swap to shuriken storm>bp over shadowstrike in dance on 7+ mobs otherwise its shadowstrike >evis?

spark tusk
#

During dance you use storm once for find weakness with the rotten, then always strike

#

bp takes over evis but you still strike

celest mulch

Hi, after reading the guide im a little confused about when to use secret technique during shadowdance. Is best as first or second finisher?

limpid sage
tribal blade
#

and then once i've timed all 13s it'll never deplete below 13

#

and so on and so forth

#

That’s pretty sick

tribal blade
#

not sure why they locked it behind IO that's unobtainable for the majority of players

warm marlin
#

does it prevent it from bricking at all at 12 or lower

tribal blade
#

i think it'll just stay at 10

#

not exactly sure, don't really want to test it right now haha

#

maybe before reset

#

i'll see what happens

but this system basically makes a lot less homework situations for push teams

and this is a godsend for pugging

limpid sage
#

Ye that’s a weird choice

#

Way more likely to get inted in lower keys

warm marlin
#

yea pugging its real good but I feel like in my experience in a group we very rarely bricked below a level where we already had all keys timed

tribal blade
#

the last 12 i timed was a cinderbrew, and then an npc at the chest gave me a quest

warm marlin
#

interesting to see if it will matter much

limpid sage
#

Will matter for people that push keys solo

#

Not so much for groups ig

warm marlin
#

ya for sure

how come we use strike over storm once find weakness has been applied on 7+?

because when you run your own key with lfg it gets inted all the time

Anyone know if it's best to send PvP trinket on shadow dance usage or always sync it with blades?

what crafts do people go for

other than weapon

jolly pasture
#

dagger neck atm i think is best

because other slots are a lot easier to fill with good items

#

cleft neck was simming as big downgrade for me, i guess you need more ver/mast from other pieces for that to become bis, and even then its a vault item bis so gl with that

My 658 crit vers neck is worse than 639 from last tier

jolly pasture
#

yes same

#

and im not gonna get a hoc anyway

shy ermine
#

We’ve seen 1 across all difficulties so far and I’m low down on the list

jolly pasture
#

every possible upgrade i have in raid

#

is bigger on someone

#

sub scaling with gear is trash

shy ermine
#

Yeah that’s been the case for years

jolly pasture
#

we cleared full hc norm twice and mythic first twice i have 0 raid items equiped

shy ermine
#

I got 2 heroic tier pieces and mythic shoulders to catalyse

jolly pasture
#

unorinically if i dont get hoc from vault im psure im getting my hoc when the dinar comes out

#

and by then sin will probably get buffed and we will play sin with signet for prog xd

shy ermine
#

I know talking about scaling is a bit of a meme but it does happen every tier

#

They could buff our mastery and give an aura nerf to compensate

jaunty heath

jolly pasture
#

plenty of other classes cant use 2 min either

monk dk for sure need hoc and cant use signet, and iirc some casters too

The loot itemisation this tier does seem a little kaka

jolly pasture
#

how long does it take to farm the pvp trinket?

#

its -2k for me but no -QOL of transmitter

fierce ivy
#

not that long. I farmed neck + an extra piece + two sockets for the neck in half a day just spamming BGs. Got the conquest from the ashran and thousand winter quests you get in the BG and the daily win bonus. Was done in a half-day

#

if it's just the trinket might be faster to queue arenas, if you have some PvP xp. Otherwise I would just vibe around in BGs

jolly pasture

i hate pvp and have no exp so no arenas

but i hate trashmitter more than pvp possibly

u guys think sin will pull ahead again?

lilac stag

It’s more ST dmg in m+ which is more than fine. The difference overall isn’t worth worrying about.

weary crag
#

i feel like sin will pull ahead on some bosses for sure

#

too much movement going on to perfect the rotation on some fights in this raid

lilac stag
#

Nothing new. Shine in heroic week. Mid in mythic.

#

wait for tuning.

clever delta
#

They already did tunning and nerfed us twice

#

And buffed assa twice

hoary sun
#

We ain't getting buffed lil pup

weary crag
#

blizzard for whatever reason

#

wants the most simple spec to be the best

#

assasination

jaunty heath
#

We do have a dk but

#

You’d rather give it to rogue atm probably

#

Even if his increase is bigger

#

Not very hot at the minute

lilac stag
# clever delta They already did tunning and nerfed us twice

The tuning was more moving dmg out of burst. Rogue Sims from ptr were all lower than other classes. Assa got brought up to the other two specs. The class is tuned low, if sub gets adjusted again who knows.

You can tell by the chatter in here many of the fotm chasers moved back to one of the others.

jolly pasture
#

why does it always feel like rogue is nerfed too early and then just stays undertuned

#

they seem to always forget we dont benefit as much from gear as others

tribal blade
#

blizz in recent years has not cared very much about sub as a spec

molten citrus
tribal blade
#

i'm starting to see myself get gapped in content now

weary crag
#

the gameplay is basically the same as the last time i played which was bfa first raid tier

#

with some more cds

#

etc

#

which I dont mind I love sub

lilac stag
weary crag
#

but it would be sad to see assas pull through as the better spec again

#

when its so simple

tribal blade
#

sub is not exactly down bad right now, it's just not that great

weary crag
#

tbh its fine

#

i think the fights are just really hard to play sub correctly on

#

and assasin pulls ahead in high keys m+

tribal blade
#

i was thinking about trying out sin in keys tbh

#

sub is really good at some things in M+, but when there's big aoe dam that's required we're not doing so hot

#

places like cinderbrew

#

where you want big aoe dam the entire key pretty much

jolly pasture
#

theres simple specs that are still kinda fun

lilac stag
#

It’s fun. It’s dmg in these fights isn’t exactly good. Where our burst would be useful it doesn’t necessarily seem to be the case.

Went in blind on H mugs. Assigned to prisons. Timings just feel bad. Tested assa twice and stuff lined up better.

jolly pasture
#

sin is just boring af

dusty totem
#

cindebrew first pull feels so bad when u have a warlock doing 2x ur dmg

tribal blade
#

the main issue once again is sub isn't doing enough damage in cds (in aoe most) to warrant the downtime

lilac stag
#

yup

tribal blade
#

sub can do on par aoe burst with other specs

dusty totem
#

Yeah we get gapped when the pack lives long

tribal blade
#

but then the huge problem is you go into downtime and you're doing less than tank damage

lilac stag
#

you also really want a shaman

tribal blade
#

so in reality they should not have nerfed sub's 4 set and sectec dmg

dusty totem
#

Yeah they should have kept the tier set as is but given the aura buff (coping hard here i know)

lilac stag
#

they would have after heroic clears

tribal blade
#

we could maybe see sub buffs who knows, but i doubt it

jolly pasture
#

nah they are gonna buff sin instead

lilac stag
#

CT & BP buffs for everyone

#

they’ll buff Assa & Sub DS. At that point I rather play Assa.

weary crag
#

subs onlyh issue in m+

#

is downtime

dusty totem
#

BP buff would be kinda nice tbh right now switching to BP does not feel very satisfiying

jolly pasture
#

honestly they should just uncap outlaw

weary crag
#

im down to play outlaw

#

much more than assas

tribal blade
#

looks like outlaw is very ahead in mythic

#

sin is ahead of sub

#

sub is actually the worst performing rogue raid spec atm looks like

jolly pasture
#

logs rn are scam tho

#

its 3 bosses

tribal blade
#

true it's very hard to say, we don't ahve much data

jolly pasture
#

but besides stix honestly tier doesnt look bad for outlaw

tribal blade
#

good for them

#

warranted

jolly pasture
#

need more data tho but maybe i get to prog on outlaw finally? copium prayge

Man, this season owns for M+

All the outlaw enjoyers outing themselves this morning. garf_sit

my blue name is only because is what i picked by accident when i joined RH

never could play outlaw seriously

the story of outlaw mains

Same, high5

nah i meant outlaw isnt viable

not that i cant perform

# jolly pasture outlaw isnt a problem

You’re fighting the wrong fight in this channel. Any actual sub mains want nothing to do with that abomination of a rogue spec.

If people enjoy it, great. We are not them. kekdog

jolly pasture
#

sub is close second to outlaw for me, just not sin, sin is the abomination

#

being benched is more fun than playing sin

tepid trellis
#

id rather play assa for 6 months straight than 10min as outlaw

tribal blade
#

so what are the chances blizz makes next tier's end boss turbo nuclear difficulty

#

to make up for this race

jolly pasture
keen dome
#

Final tier, too. So probably a solid 90%

lilac stag
jolly pasture
#

i guess the speed of it, since you like sin more and they are kinda polar opposites

keen dome
#

Getting summoned to the horde entrance of ML is a very "uuuuuh... oh no"

tribal blade
jolly pasture
#

ironically i kinda enjoyed sin before DF rework

keen dome
tepid trellis
jolly pasture
#

rework made is so much worse somehow

tribal blade
#

ironically outlaw is the spec that most people who don't main rogue seem to like the most

#

it's the spec everyone's always asking me about

void hound
#

outlaw is the rogue spec that plays the most like other classes

#

that makes it appealing to newcomer

jolly pasture
#

idk i dont have a set idea of what rogue supposed to feel like

wide rover
#

what do you craft with second spark?

blazing creek
jolly pasture
#

they changed the game so much no class is what it used to be back in the day

tepid trellis
tribal blade
#

or close to perfect

#

a lot of people gravitate to that

void hound
wide rover
#

i liked beginning SL sub

jolly pasture
#

you guys must have hated pre rework sub in abberus then because it legit was gcd locked

vague dragon
jolly pasture
#

no class plays like it did back then

#

they have classic for that type of playstyle

tribal blade
#

that was not a classic type rotation

tepid trellis
#

its sorta how sub is now

#

very slow between dances

#

fast in cds

#

as it should be

void hound
#

i agree

tribal blade
#

dance back then felt more impactful

#

since it was a set 1 min cd

void hound
#

the foundation we have is pretty good i think

tribal blade
#

and that's where you did all your damage

void hound
#

its a shame we have to deal with so many bugs all the time and most talents being unplayable

tribal blade
#

i'm now wishing they would fix rotten

hollow spear
#

Which bug? The one where storm consumes both stacks?

tribal blade
swift tinsel
#

Idk if I’d rather see them return dance to fixed cd or slightly increase the cdr from deepening

jolly pasture
#

bro i love outlaw but even for me cdr on sub doesnt fit

hollow spear
#

Would probably help people get into the spec

jolly pasture
#

maybe keep it on sectec so it doesnt have charges but dance 30 or 45 sec cd would be great

swift tinsel
#

If they go back to fixed cd I think reworking flag/blades/cb would help

hollow spear
#

Apart of not being able to execute flag burst, that's probably the biggest reason for low dps on sub

swift tinsel
#

45 sec dance cd might be nice

jolly pasture
#

yeah nice small burst between big bursts

swift tinsel
#

Have blades grant dance for duration

hollow spear
#

I see so many fumbled flag bursts in the log reviews, I refuse to accept that people have actually read the guides

tribal blade
#

feels like dance should be fixed cd and keep sectec the same

jolly pasture
#

ofc theres a risk of spec becoming too static like sin

wide rover
#

What do we craft after weapon?

tribal blade
#

you're just being inted by not being able to maintain uptime with dance cdr

swift tinsel
#

Yeah

void hound
#

id be strongly opposed a fixed dance cd

swift tinsel
#

Agreed

void hound
#

cause managing your resources is the fun part

#

since energy has been made obsolete as something that needs to be managed

#

i dread the day sub plays like assa pressing every button at the same time every pull

hollow spear
#

Just make sectec static and reset with dancd

swift tinsel
#

Only within burst windows

tribal blade
#

not sure that a spell you can't send on cd needs to work off cdr

swift tinsel
#

Outside you aren’t gcd locked

void hound
#

it was great

tribal blade
#

yeah sectec working off cdr is great i think

#

since it anchors the rotation

hollow spear
#

After you've learned when to send dances you're kind of playing almost a set cd rotation anyways, no?

tribal blade
#

but dance nah

void hound
hollow spear
#

Yeah true

tribal blade
#

it just punishes you when you can't have uptime

#

there's no upside

hollow spear
#

But I think that comes also from having stacks

tribal blade
#

usually a spell working off cdr is "if i play well i get more casts of this spell"

#

which is cool

hollow spear
#

Having 2 dance stacks gives you the flexibility, not the cdr

#

Imo

void hound
#

both do

hollow spear
#

I kinda disagree

#

Cdr mostly punishes you

#

If you get mechanics

#

There's no real reward

#

Besides mega storming on adds

lilac stag
#

CDR is punishment for losing uptime.

Stacks gives you choice. Players generally enjoy having charges on a cd. Many of the specs have had this added over time.

void hound
#

yeah cdr can be punishing i agree

#

i think cdr for sub is important cause otherwise you could literally afk outside of cds and it wouldnt matter

tribal blade
#

i think the difference is for other specs it's more like "it took me longer to get the spell off cd to fire again"

#

but for sub it's "i can't cdr fast enough and now my entire rotation is borked"

lilac stag
#

trying to fit cds on silken depending on uptime was fun

lilac stag
#

Sarcasm

void hound
#

oh 😔

tribal blade
#

it's the problem outlaw has 😉

#

it's not a fun problem

lilac stag
#

red side sub was misery trying to get CDR back

jaunty heath
#

Cdr needs to go

#

At least on dance

swift tinsel
#

Now merge flag and blades into one 1.5min 16 sec cd

#

That adds cb effect to Sectech

jaunty heath
#

I mean only issue with cb is it’s not a very cool spell

#

Besides that

#

Don’t mind secret tech

#

Cb*

wicked joltBOT

#

Surely we get a rework for 11.1.5 on May 20th. kekw

jaunty heath
#

I mean to be honest sub plays really good rn, I’m having a blast

swift tinsel
#

If it happens before 13.0 I’ll be amazed

jaunty heath
#

The cdr thing barely matters it’s just pointless

#

To even exist

lilac stag
#

it’s fun until you remove trickster

jaunty heath
#

Yeah

swift tinsel
#

Yep

lilac stag
#

which is a problem

jaunty heath
#

I wouldn’t mind DS if it wasn’t bugged honestly

swift tinsel
#

The moment we have to switch to ds everything falls apart

#

After playing so much trickster I don’t think I could enjoy deathstalker, even with bug fixes

#

The gameplay of trickster is what I want sub to be baseline

#

Or something close

glacial basin
#

Any one got nimble flurry weak aura

#

that how many targets are in range?

grand galleon
#

guys, can somebody give me TLDR when do I actually use black powder and shuriken? I understand shuriken 3+ targets when outside of shadow dance, but do we use any of those spells in shadowdance at all?

tough glacier
#

only use shuriken to apply weakness to multiple targets, after that use shadowstrike. black powder you use on 7+ targets as finisher

swift tinsel
#

100%, ds just feels so slow in cooldowns by comparison

stoic lark

part of me thinks there’s some underlining political joke with gally falling over so easily and the current president of the states. Could just be my own head cannon. garf

If you walk away from them they go "Wait, you are meant to debate me!"

slender trail

Yeah lmfao

#

Spent more time writing funny content than tuning the final boss xD

lilac stag
#

for the lulz. using sub gear and 658 thumb

vale pine
#

Realistically, it seemed like something was wrong with the encounter

#

blizz did tune a lot of background spells it seemed over the last days but neither rly does anything

#

makes it seem like the encounter should have had a phase or mechanics triggering that just never did

tribal blade
#

everyone was expecting something crazy to happen like the platform breaking away

#

but nothing happened

vale pine
#

It felt a bit anticlimatic, last boss just falling over with the many bugs both rwf teams had to deal with to kill other bosses

#

but could be just my personal position on it

tribal blade
#

my guild experienced this before getting HoF with jailer

slender trail
#

The conspiracy theories would FLOW

tribal blade
#

after they nerfed the boss we just speed ran P3 in a few pulls and killed it

lilac stag
#

I think they played extremely well. Maybe community set itself up with the secret phase copium

tribal blade
#

and nobody felt good about the kill lol

vale pine
#

so don't think we will see anything happen

lilac stag
#

not surprising after they could just watch liquid strat

vale pine
#

just is now about echo not tilting and it will fall soon

tribal blade
#

it's just more so the boss is way too easy for an end boss

vale pine
#

for them

tribal blade
#

so the victory feels hollow

#

"oh ok, i guess we won? cool"

lilac stag
slender trail
tribal blade
vale pine
#

mugzee also seemed

tribal blade
#

mugzee at least was somewhat hard

vale pine
#

to have a lot of bugs that could make you whipe

#

e.g. unsoakable bombs

lilac stag
#

I’m more disappointed that sub’s burst isn’t really a need in the tier

#

the raid is fun

vale pine
#

i did not watch much of the mugzee pulls, so can't say how much the pull count got inflated by bugs

hazy breach
#

A bit

slender trail
#

It was pretty rough.

lilac stag
#

Liquid had at least 30 wipes to the bomb bug

tribal blade
#

it was harder for my guild to prog mugzee than gally

#

we killed heroic gally tonight in half a night of prog

vale pine
#

gg

#

echo less than 50 pulls

tribal blade
#

nuts

lilac stag
#

We got mugz to 15 million health. At that point I wish I had swapped to assa.

tribal blade
#

should be 4 times the pull count

hazy breach
#

Idk should it

#

Maybe blizzards intent was for the raid to be easier, since people were talking about how nerubar was too hard

lilac stag
#

I think for most people this is a good thing

#

for the rwf it’s a disappointment.

vale pine
#

this would be true if the raid was not tuned around the rwf

#

but if it wasn't we would have each boss fall in less than 50 pulls

lilac stag
#

Huh?

#

Your avg CE guild isn’t dropping gally in 50 pulls

vale pine
#

i don't talk about gallywix only

#

but raid tuning

lilac stag
#

I still don’t understand your point fuu

vale pine
#

the point is

#

if blizz wants bosses in general to be easier so people would not get stuck

#

other fights in the raid would be easier too

#

not just the last boss

molten citrus
#

at least thats what i understood

young trench
#

i dont mind that at all tbh

tribal blade
#

this whole situation is good for the kind of guild i'm in

#

where we know we're not going to be in eternal suffering

lilac stag
#

There are two sticking points and one slightly undertuned boss (or are the stacked specs overtuned making the optics worse). Idk. Combo of both.

For my CE guild the optics are we have a carrot we can actually get without insane nerfs in 2 months.

#

For those that care, the race to HoF maybe a bit more interesting now.
