#

Theres representation because of raid buffs

#

Good is where dh sits

#

Really good is where ww sits

#

Mid is fine

lilac stag
#

Above prot warrior dps at least. omegalul

sterile kiln
#

rogues when they're not top 3 in the meter

lilac stag
clever delta
#

Rogue is crazy low mid - can be fine for some

vale pine
#

Rogue is a class you can not have in raid and it won't make a big diffrence

#

does not mean we are bad

jaunty heath
#

People omegaluling dh are cooked btw

#

Dh is definitely good idk what you watched but it also has chaos brand on top of doing good Surebud

#

Atrophic in comparison to chaos brand is eh

oak rune
#

Good is a class able to sustain aoe and st damage without relying on gimmkcks like 1:30 timers, splatter distance or constant uptime on boss

lilac stag
#

Havoc if not number 1 is shit. Duh

oak rune
#

Basically why rogue is mid is because it can only be optimized for certain things while other classes can flex better

#

All specs

jaunty heath
#

We just needs a slap and then we are in the good club too

halcyon coral
#

That's why I "main" 3 classes every season šŸ˜‚

jaunty heath
#

Sub still bursts adds very well

hazy breach
#

Tfw we are the boomy discord now sadgesipjammies

jaunty heath
#

And adds are important this raid

lilac stag
#

what needs to be bursted down that ww and mages didn’t cook?

halcyon coral
#

The adds that are separated

#

Slot machine boss ..dot classes can hit all 3

#

In reference to WW

jaunty heath
#

Rik has stacked adds, stix does even tho obviously there’s a bigger nieche to fill there, bandit yes dot classes can hit all of them but they don’t die to that

#

Fire mages and wws cleave very well yes

oak rune
#

Basically being told to switch to outlaw for mugsy and coin machine because I can’t switch as sin

jaunty heath
#

But burst on them is still good

oak rune
#

Let me collect another full set of hero

halcyon coral
jaunty heath
#

To outlaw

oak rune
#

Yea suspect

jaunty heath
#

That makes no sense idk

#

You want the adds to die fast

#

So sub does that miles better than outlaw

hazy breach
#

Compared to the world first kills

jaunty heath
#

That’s huge

hazy breach
#

So just melee meatgrinder is fine

jaunty heath
#

Sub should be good then

#

Timers aren’t too bad either for stix iirc

oak rune
#

Yea sub is overall the best but sin is too reliant on boss positioning and add positioning

lilac stag
#

o said it during ptr. When you’re 400k behind in ST sims at higher gear levels, it’s not going to be a good time.

clever delta
#

Rogue will be even worse post rwf as we have half of scaling other classes

lilac stag
#

our need isn’t really there

#

So we’re ā€œfineā€ as bottom 1/3 dps

#

trickster feels great at least. garf_sit

oak rune
#

Death stalker honestly the worst hero talent

clever delta
#

Dw it will be assa meta shortly

oak rune
#

They should just allow you to recraft any secondaries for 500g

#

Then it wouldn’t matter so much

young trench
#

missive as socket slot thingy

lilac stag
#

Your secondaries won’t mate that much swapping to assa

young trench
#

yes but i wont half ass stuff like that when i know recrafts exist

#

thats why itwould be cool to swap on the fly šŸ˜›

so 7+ targets I use powder even in SD?

paper iron
#

Yes

swift tinsel
#

Yeah

paper iron
#

But coup de grâce being prio

grand galleon
#

ah okay, so storm only once in SD, but outside SD use even on 3+ correct?

molten citrus
paper iron
#

that s for aoe

#

so yea if flawless form activ, press storm on 3+ OUTSIDE of shadow dance
If flawless not activ, press backstab to activate it

median python
#

hi all is there any pref ons econd spark item? wasnt sure if i go second dagger or somethign else

paper iron
#

u should sim but i can tell u, from anything u could craft, dont do off hand

#

it s the worst upgrade slot possible

#

we went for neck / glove / head / cloak / wrist depending on what u already got. Assuming u did main hand first Surebud simming will tell u

median python
#

thank you bro, ill sim now!

proper beacon
#

!fuu

neck will give you the most stats, thats what i went with

Hello guys

#

Could u tell me pls, is it correct marcos?
#showtooltip
/use Shadow Dance;
/use Symbols of Death;
/use Shadow Blades;
/use Tempered Potion;

#showtooltip
/use Cold Blood;
/use Secret Technique;

paper iron
#

are the macro correct? Yes. Are they usable? Not really u dont wanna do that

pulsar gate
#

so the 1min pvp badge is what we buy right?

#

lowkey can buy a pvp ring too

ancient whale
#

So I'm using Quazii ui and don't seem to have a tracker for Supercharger combo points. Anyone know how to track them?

paper iron

#

@ancient whale either steal one from these OR check on wagoio. Cant be that hard to find

molten citrus
pulsar gate
#

im doing crate farming how long will 700 conquest take me

#

i mean badge seems worth since i have poopy 2nd trink

molten citrus
#

badge is good sure

molten citrus
pulsar gate
#

is it good or sarcasm

molten citrus
#

it is good

#

its like

#

the 3rd best on use or so

pulsar gate
#

and i upgrade it with valorstones or need more conquest?

molten citrus
#

you upgrade the pve ilvl with pve currency

pulsar gate
#

beautiful

eternal hawk
#

So, it's much better to press these buttons manually rather than using a macro?

pulsar gate
#

so its worth going max champ ilvl i imagine then

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.
hazy breach
#

Yes badge is better than most other trinkets.

#

Transmitter and house of cards are better, but those are not easy to get

#

The neck is solid too, theres 2 good rings from m+ but you could buy the pvp ring too if you really wanted

paper iron
#

u dont really want to cast them all at once in a macro, it s suboptimal, and u dont want to cold blood sectech macro cuz u actually wanna use it on your 2nd sectech in your burst, not your first

pulsar gate
#

i crafted a neck so once i get badge im gucci

#

so dont macro badge?

molten citrus
#

you can

#

just like any other trinket

#

macro it to blades

pseudo fiber
#

is badge better than signet of priory?'

#

cause it sims worse

molten citrus
#

kinda depends on your other trinket

pseudo fiber
#

pacemaker

molten citrus
#

might be the pacemaker fucking up the sim

#

link the sim

eternal hawk
#

Thank you guys!

#

Now I understand

pseudo fiber
#

have to do a new one, sec

molten citrus
#

i'm pretty sure pacemaker+priory don't outsim badge

was something changed in raidbots? house of cards suddenly simming quite a bit more

vale pine

nope

alpine wraith

some things were added the other day maybe it just went in weekly

he is right though, it sims like 10k more than earlier today

drifting quest
#

hi, I just read the wowhead guide and have a question. Is there a reason why I wouldn't macro my backstab with my shadow dance? I tested the macro and it seems to work without any issues, ensuring that I always get the danse macabre stack when I press SD

wicked joltBOT
#

Backstab/Shadow Dance Macro:yaml #Showtooltip Shadow Dance /cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow DanceThis will cast Shadow Dance on first key press and Backstab on second key press.

alpine wraith
#

sometimes you dance with full cp

#

so you dont want to backstab there

#

when on cds doing 2 dances back to back

drifting quest
#

oh that's right, ty

vale pine
#

you can use the macro valthan posted

#

it allows you to fine control the use

I miss zeross yapp

drifting quest
#

yeah that one seems perfect, thanks guys

undone mesa
#

Hey all! do we use this as second oil

#

?

proven plover
#

it does sim higher than double whetstone (for me)

#

bubble + whetstone is like 0.2% higher than 2x whetstone

vale pine
#

thats correct

undone mesa
#

st or aoe?

proven plover
#

both

vale pine
#

bubbling wax sims marginal higher

undone mesa
#

k ty

vale pine
#

it is higher variance tho

#

and wax needs to be farmed, the cheapest weapon oil combo is bubbling + mana oil

bleak night
#

mana oil is like twice the price of a whetstone on na

paper iron
#

NA market price since elon musk, if i speak i m in big trouble

#

how much is the wow token currently on NA?

proven plover
#

biggest shocker for me was alchemical chaos simming higher than other flasks

vale pine
bleak night
#

129g

paper iron
#

chaos gives more stats, so if u get mastery / vers during ur cds it s just a giant W i think

bleak night
#

mana oil is up to 393 actually so over 3x the price

vale pine
#

okay, thats cheaper then

paper iron
vale pine
#

ill check eu prices

round latch
#

they are dirt cheap

paper iron
#

crazy cuz in S1 i was buying mana oil since it was cheaper

vale pine
#

ye, they dropped in price more than mana oil

round latch
#

yeah since then they are like

#

barely worth crafting

bleak night
#

ironclaw market crashed harder than us economy

vale pine
#

guess mana oil is not a good alternative then, just wax + stone

round latch

i was selling on mass production on s1

"woah they added a rogue specific thing"

weary shard
#

if i already have a ascension dagger from playing sin, should i put writhing armor banding on the boots then?

vale pine
#

sure, whatever slot you have bad items in

#

embellishments are low enough in impact to have little impact overall

weary shard
vale pine
#

offhand dagger is probably the worse slot in the game

#

but mainhand dagger is one of the best, it is why its suggested as first craft slot

#

you essentially try to optimize your current power level with crafting rather than chase absolute bis

night rampart
#

if a damage amp buff wears off right after I press sectech, do the extra hits still profit from the buff?

still anvil
#

I'm pretty sure that secret technique does not snapshot, so the answer would be no?

correct it wont be buffed

MH dagger i did when i still played sin so thats taken care off

thats the current state of the gear. my plan was getting the boots and putting the writhing armor banding on it like its stated in the sin guide

or should i like the droptimizer suggest, craft OH dagger? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/cmda2XEiaaV3mEnd43xPNK

lucid jackal

its not suggesting offhand dagger

Its suggesting mainhand dagger

#

😠

river coral

has anyone here done underpin ?? as sub?

weary shard
bleak night
#

no its saying to recraft your current dagger

#

if you craft a second dagger thats just you crafting an offhand

weary shard
bleak night
#

literally anything other than another dagger

unborn igloo
bleak night
#

like thats actually the only wrong option

unborn igloo
#

need second lens :>

bleak night
#

you have ascendance on your dagger, so craft a writhing armor patch on some other slot and call it a day

#

or recraft dagger with lens and make a neck with a second lens on it

unborn igloo
#

i have in bag depths

bleak night
#

anything other than making another dagger

U can craft bracers for a short term upgrade

go pvp

#

Takes like 10 wins maybe

plush roost
#

Ahhhh but i hate pvp

weary shard
#

then why is the guide combo dagger+boots instead of dagger+neck?

lucid jackal
#

If u do brawl, ebg, and normal bg first win of the day, u get 363 conquest

plush roost
#

Where do u get the hero neck for pvp

lucid jackal
#

Which means u need 2 pvp 2s wins to get the neck

plush roost
#

The vendor only sells champ

lucid jackal
#

Its only champ track

chrome palm
#

it took me way longer to get the 10k honor than the conquest

#

PvP neck is too good

lucid jackal
#

But its the best neck u can get

bleak night
chrome palm
#

the pvp hands are also really good while youre at it

Really huh, over, crafted?

Ig ill sim it when im home

What are some shiv targets in m+ and how does it fit into the rotation? I haven't ever really ran shiv except with sin.

PvP neck and boots embellishments is what my sims tell me

sand monolith
lucid jackal
#

Long term, in full bis, when u can get the raid vers/mastery bracers, and cloak, neck is ognna be better

plush roost
#

Yeah I'll run some combinations when im home for sure.

#

Rn im kinda blessed with versa mast belt bracers boots. Cloak is an angle tho

unborn igloo
#

im really confused

#

crafted boots for me is like 2,2%

bleak night
#

the "full bis" profile doesnt even use the crafted neck so i wouldnt be making crafting decisions week 2 based on it

#

make whatever is the largest upgrade at the moment

alpine wraith

yesw please people

think critically

and make your own decisions

look at your gearing possibilities

kk. as to not having to sim every single piece with 16 stat combinations.

just chose the ebst droptimizer result with vers+mastery stat combination, which isn't a dagger?

bleak night
#

theres a string somewhere you can use to just do crafts in topgear

#

idr where though, maybe fuu or someone can help

#

or you can just manually add them in topgear

when taking thistle tea in m+ do we just macro it to symbols or something and forget about it?

Hey @vale pine in your wowhead guide you write that we drop the cyrce circlet at arround ilvl 665. Is this because haste and crit are not that desired stats ? Because with the ammount of mastery i have the ring gives me a ton of raw stats

macro badge to SB or Flag?

ring is usually better for a long time

#

even if your other ring is 665 or 670 becasue of fathomdweller

#

best is to just sim

also when you get mastery procs like drink ring also gains stats

#

or things like symbiosis or blessed grip

Do any of the WA packs track the Fazed ICD or when it's refunded by Thousand Cuts? Is it even worth tracking?

I'm learning the rotation and I am seeing a situation where between CD windows if I get Unseen Blade, and Fazed is not on the target, Im kinda just sending backstabs at 7 cp's.. Thoughts?

alpine wraith
#

a funny thing too is when you pop house of cards and get like 10k mastery

vale pine

le i think tries to track unseen blades

sour void
#

yes that is why i am wondering that a 665 ring outperforms it

wispy jasper
#

Yours tracks unseen blades too, I just mean the enemy debuff

molten citrus
#

you can add it to your plater

#

or did you specifically want it shown in the WA pack

wispy jasper
#

Idk what I'm askign haha, just tryign to figure this out

#

My second half of my question was more the important piece..
If i'm between cooldowns with a Coup de Grace proc'd, and fazed isn't on the target, but I'm at 7cp. Do I continue backstabbing and wasting CP's to proc fazed?

#

assuming my only option atm would be backstab/evisc

tardy panther
#

have a question, is it normal to have secret technique up and not having a dance to use it? or i am doing somethign wrong, i only use dance when sec tech is up and tech is the 1st finisher i do

alpine wraith
#

yes it happens quite a bit

#

dance has literally half the cdr of sec tech

molten citrus
#

typically you can send a naked sod+tech and be fine

#

not sure if it can krangle things depending on uptime though

#

Should i send 675 neck? i have 655 boots on bag
making neck i can use double lens

alpine wraith
#

you might want to sim

#

neck is kinda safe

#

but for me it was not a big win vs pvp necl

tardy panther
empty oyster
#

i did a couple, sending 655 neck is only worth if i have mythic chest legs or head to upgrade, if i am using crests to upgrade mythic belt its dps loss compared to send max ilvl neck

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.

man does rogue tokens even exist?? 20 tokens for our raid this week, only 2 being rogue šŸ¤”

tulip gorge
#

you have more than 1 rogue?

vale pine
#

we had 1 rogue token drop so far

#

so ye, rogue token's don't exist

#

i have the theory that token drops depend on how many of the specific class are in the raid but can't confirm it

west tide
#

@lucid jackal u makin the boots or wrists bro

lucid jackal
#

I made wrist

#

gonna buy boe for now

west tide
#

omggg

#

ok ill go boots im broke as shit

pulsar gate
#

would u guys say our jobs as rogue is to lock down a dangerous caster

#

as best i can

west tide
#

in like dungeons?

pulsar gate
#

yes

lucid jackal
#

kick kidney kick

#

thats all u can do

west tide
#

i mean i wouldny say its our job but we have lots of tools

pulsar gate
#

right

#

well we got blind

tranquil garden
west tide
#

if a cast is about to go off u can use atool to stop it but i wouldnt call it a job

pulsar gate
#

cheap shot isnt as readily availble

west tide
#

just make the right play if u need to

pulsar gate
#

yeah i mean when theres 3 casters i can only really focus one

#

unless i go dummy and just focus on cc

tranquil garden
#

vanish cheap shot

pulsar gate
#

true

#

like those mobs beginning of DFC

#

casting

#

i should lock one up

#

How big is eye of kezan for sub?

tranquil garden
#

bout the size of a human eyeball

#

maybe slightly larger

paper surge
#

is sub dps in keys on trash pull dependant or am i there to just go brr on bosses?

tranquil garden
#

strangely it's about the same size for every other spec too

versed hazel
#

my sims say it's not an upgrade over mythic spare keys and heroic priory trinket

vale pine
#

because it becomes stronger with fight time

#

heroic/normal its kinda whatever

#

and for mythic+ you have too much downtime, so not recommended to use

versed hazel
#

gotcha, similar to signet from amirdrassil in that sense then

#

guess it just sims like shit for some reason

vale pine
#

change figth lengh to 8 mins

versed hazel
#

will give it a go

weary shard
#

!wa

wicked joltBOT
leaden prairie
#

i would say the opposite

#

kezan becomes much better in m+

#

the stacks dont go down that fast

#

and you are able to keep it up with insane uptimes

#

in some dungeons *

#

i think the meta will evolve toward tanks running it prolly

versed hazel
#

so if I have it only queue with tanks that also have it 5Head

#

Damn eye of kezussy goes crazy

kevin's eye really putting out the gaze attacks

alpine wraith
#

yea sub will be sad lots of people running house of cards and kezan in the future

vale pine
twilit phoenix
#

Just the raw stats you get from it is crazy

#

It’s like 6-7k agi at full stacks?

alpine wraith
#

yea it is a bit diff from signet

#

where after some secs it just lots all charges

twilit phoenix
#

I’m a hero track sussy drink enjoyer

leaden prairie
#

well mine gives me 7 k

#

at like 658

#

i think

leaden prairie
twilit phoenix
#

678 eyeball gonna go crazy

leaden prairie
#

a trinket that is just stats

#

you are going to want to run it

#

even signet sometimes you would run in high tyranical keys

#

in some keys

alpine wraith
#

the reason it was super busted if you perma pulled

#

the st power was also not bad of course but imo if you did the leave 1 shitter ccd somewhere on some dugeons for perma combat

#

it was stellar

spark valley
#

how often do we use shuriken storm in aoe? i'm kinda confused about it

leaden prairie
#

idk about doing aoe

alpine wraith
#

st was giga but the aoe part when fully stacked was quite strong

#

of course you only did the perma combat on coordinated groups and not all dungeons

#

because it broke vehicles and other things you cant click inside of combat

#

same thing as you can do now on floodgate with 1 person having to drop combat to click bombs/pistol etc

limpid sage
paper iron
#

i hated signet

#

most uselss trinket ever 😠

#

reclear fights were like 4mn long at most

#

😠

#

and the rng of stacking it was so weird, could be full stacked in a minute, or not full at 6mn

molten citrus
#

at 7+ you do 1 storm in dance to spread FW, and you spend on BP

pulsar gate
#

what do u guys enjoy about sub

molten citrus
#

outside of dance at 3+ you storm with FF up

hazy breach
#

When i press cds things die Surebud

pulsar gate
#

rotation is lacking a bit for me but what can u do

molten citrus
#

burst is thematically sick Surebud

pulsar gate
#

lowkey a 2 button spec

paper iron
#

and outside of cd i can alttab and play some candy crush on facebook

molten citrus
#

pre planning CDs is fun

paper iron
#

wow is 2 buttons nowadays

#

it s not just sub

pulsar gate
#

WW is bussing rn

paper iron
#

yea it s 3 buttons, not so bad

pulsar gate
#

lmao no

paper iron
#

but 30 apm

#

looks very much like sub kinda

pulsar gate
#

yeah maybe im thinking too much into it

#

just kinda boring idk but its meta

paper iron
#

my point is, all classes in modern wow is the same shit

#

2 buttons to generate

pulsar gate
#

yeah u right

paper iron
#

2 buttons to spend

#

2 or 3 cd button to empower yourself

undone mesa
paper iron
#

10 buttons are for utility / defensives

proven plover
molten citrus
#

it makes a thread

pulsar gate
#

i just started i dint know what i was getting into

#

sin and outlaw were very fun

proven plover
#

Sub is about cd management

pulsar gate
#

yeah thats what im seeing

proven plover
#

Just go sin if you enjoy it, the specs are very close

paper iron
#

all 3 rogue specs have great gameplay currently (well since outlaw is playing killing spree maybe not lol)

#

and they go different

paper iron
#

assa is about ramping damage, tracking dots, doing cd stuff. Outlaw about reacting to proc and smashing keyboard. Sub is about preplanning any combat, aligning CDs

half quest
#

Are the Wowhead/Veins guides wrong when it comes to eviserate in the opener? They have rupture and sectech as the first two spenders where the APL has eviserate and rupture.

hollow aspen
#

guys how on earth are you playing without the energy talents, when i run CB i feel like i never have enough energy for anything

thorny rivet
#

!MD

hazy breach
#

You have more than enough energy during your cds

#

And you dont do any damage outside cds anyway

#

The best way of using tea is to macro it with dance anyway

hollow aspen
#

ill keep at it then

hazy breach
#

And its just simpler to not have the vanish there

#

Because you can say "do this everytime your cds are up"

#

Also the simc apl should be updated soon enough

pulsar gate
#

numbing in M+ over atrophic>

#

?

hazy breach
#

Numbing makes the tank takes less melee damage and increases the time of casts

#

Whereas atrophic is overall a dps decrease for the enemies

pulsar gate
#

see i thought atrophic would help tank more

#

so if i know i have a lit tank maybe go atrophic

hazy breach
#

Well atrophic is -3.6% damage

pulsar gate
#

but the slower casts is good too i imagine

hazy breach
#

Numbing is -18% dmg from melee hits

pulsar gate
#

i see

tranquil garden
#

Slower casts means easier kicks.

pulsar gate
#

yes

half quest
upper narwhal
#

Numbing poison was lowkey carrying 1st room in meadery before the nerfs

hazy breach
#

Your first sectech is supercharged either way

#

The only difference is less slice and dice uptime

half quest
hazy breach
#

What

#

No

#

But you dont use symbols until before sectech

half quest
#

Okay I’ve been using symbols pre pull because it covers the first sectech

half quest
hazy breach
#

The "prepull" is 30 seconds or longer before pull

#

Not right before pull

autumn glade
#

that's not why you use it prepull, first sectec should always be supercharged if you're doing the opener right

hazy breach
#

Using it right before pull would be really bad

autumn glade
#

even if you don't use symbols prepull at all, sectec should always be supercharged with proper play

hazy breach
#

Yes

half quest
#

Okay I thought symbols covering the opening gcds was part of why it was pre pull whoops

autumn glade
#

If it's not, you're doing something wrong

half quest
#

Especially if you do evis rupture opener you barely miss symbols charge with the cd reduction

hazy breach
#

What

autumn glade
#

what

molten citrus
autumn glade
#

symbols doesn't get cooldown reduction on combo points spent, that's shadow dance

swift tinsel
#

you get a full symbols charge worth of cd duration from your flag window

#

or 1 second short if it

#

24 sec buff

#

so you shouldn't be missing symbols charges

molten citrus
autumn glade
#

I'm confused on what's going on now lol

half quest
#

I thought symbols got cdr and have been playing wrong

#

That’s all lol

i call that playing properly

i m watching my guild on it rn, it just looks like the shittiest gimmick mecanic fight ever

brazen hare
#

ty, so in between CDs am i using Symbols and Shadow Dance at that time with Secret Technique? so it says on wowhead. but at the same time im saving 2 charges of both for when CDs come back up right. basically what am i doing vs not doing in between CDs. because atm my dmg is extremely low when im on CD.

sage pivot

Is it better to cast symbols>shadow dance or dance and shadow dance on the 3/4th dance macabre so i hit the empowered combo poits with Shadow Tecniques and Evis(4 macabre stacks) ?

It’s VERY low

okay

You do damage in cds

Outside of them you’ll do damage in a dance but it’s really not much

brazen hare

so just cry and refresh rupture in the meantime

During shadowblades when we do the back to back SDs, if the 2nd one happens to come up while we're already full combo points do we just send it and skip the backstab or do we do 1 finisher with no SD and then SD -> backstab?

4 piece for sub is very good

#

for assa not that much

#

Sub: 2pc meh, 4pc gigagood
Ass: 2pc gigagood, 4pc meh

#

(For ass, specifically 2pc + 2pc is what makes it super good)

#

oh, okay dope

smoky vault

Yeah but expect some tuning

#

Can't stay like this

alpine wraith
#

you think they are going to nerf ww warr etc?

#

who knows

smoky vault
#

ww for sure

hazy breach
#

Ww and mage for sure

#

Unless they do only buffs

alpine wraith
#

yea fire mage is weird

#

didnt seem that op until you saw 3 or 4 on a boss

#

and were ah

#

so this like a full mechanics class and still does almost top dmg

smoky vault
#

They will bring 4 PC for everyone around 10 / 13% max I guess

tranquil garden
#

really hate how modern fire mage is such high apm

smoky vault
#

Some are 7- 10 and other 18%

#

That's no sense

alpine wraith
#

i was actually quite happy with sub burst bursta

#

but ehehe

#

we just got tier nerfed and baseline buffed

smoky vault
#

Tricky to tune sub

alpine wraith
#

a bit sad they decided to buff builders again

tranquil garden
smoky vault
#

They must stop to play with damage on BIG skill but rather make it funnier with CD reduction (like fire mage) or just rise baseline backstab / shadowstrike damage for better ST sustain for both spec. Cause rising damage on DoTs and other things that make AoE will be too OP for M+

alpine wraith
#

nono sustain dps is contraty to sub

#

like anthitesis demon

#

it already resurged once and got vanished to the nether

#

like it shoudl

smoky vault
#

Yeah but currently it's too bad to me

#

Too much difference between burst and outside

brisk raptor
#

@tepid trellis any particular reason you crafted your neck with runed crest?

lucid jackal
#

That is just the way the spec works and kinda has worked most of the time

smoky vault
#

Spec should be a niche to play when timers are great (i.e Rik) and Assa be the goto for sustain but heh... waiting for tuning

lucid jackal
hazy breach
#

Not with crests

brisk raptor

Ahh makes sense. I wonder why no craft with gilded. Just saving those crests for more important items I suppose

not slands, dragonflight

It randomly becomes worth, and not worth

#

Right now its randomly better to do it

ebon oyster

They should make backstab turn into shadowstrike automatically so its never worth
