#

Sub def isn't the most beginner-friendly, takes a fair bit of understanding and practice if you're just starting out

lucid jackal
#

Sub has like 3 things you need to learn

#
  • You need to learn your major cooldown sequence.
  • You need to learn how to use Symbols of Death and Shadow Dance
  • You need to learn when you can stray from default rules (But this is more advanced and really doesnt matter unless you are progging mythic)
shut ridge
#

I can’t believe I’m about to use transmitter for the entirety of prog hatspin

lucid jackal
#

The specs damage is absurdly loaded into flag/blades, so you need to understand the sequence I would say near perfectly

#

then you just need to learn simple rules about symbols/dance

swift tinsel
#

Yeah practice the burst window til you nail it

lucid jackal
#

You use symbols with every secret technique, when sectec is 10 or less seconds on cooldown

#

and you use dance in addition if you have it available

#

You stop using both when flag/blades are at 30 seconds remaining, to have enough resources to double dance with flag/blades

#

This is literally the entire spec, thats all

#

The rest is "press backstab, apply rupture, afk until next cds/microcds"

Neck or anything else better

i thought with nimble flurry you want to backstab instead of shurikan.. was that ever a thing?

cobalt vector
#

u always shadowstrike over shuriken. but backstab does so little dmg the cp is worth more out of cds

soft summit
#

k thanks

swift tinsel
#

You still storm with 2nd charge of rotten at 7+ in dance though

Ooh ye to apply fw.

swift tinsel

strike - sectech - storm - bp - strike - bp etc etc

cobalt vector
#

isnt it backstab -> sectech -> storm -> ...

shrewd wren
#

do we use shuriken storm to spread fw below 7 targets?

thorny rivet
#

What’s that thing where you hold onto a coup and BP until CDs up? Is it like 20 seconds on CD for flag/blade?

cobalt vector
#

only need it on ur primary target

oh really now

right on

#

the 2nd hit of secret tech always did less damage than the 3rd?

swift tinsel
#

and do you have s2 4pc

jaunty heath
#

the half of the 3rd and yea 4pc

swift tinsel
#

the bug must still exist then

#

sometimes the clones from sectech can independently drop the tier bonus stacks and do less shadow damage than intended, was a known bug on ptr

paper iron
swift tinsel
#

might have to look into that again after work, was under the assumption it was fixed

jaunty heath
#

sometimes i see i hit for 4m the 2nd and 7m the 3rd

swift tinsel
#

it was quite rare having the clones do different damage from each other but was def a thing

#

Do you have a log by chance

lost kite
#

In general are you supposed to fit 2 secret tech inside of 1 charge of shadow dance? I’m always ending my shadow dance with 2-4 secs cd on secret tech

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.

not really always

wicked joltBOT
#

Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs

paper iron
#

that s not what i meant to get

lost kite
#

Thought you always used your sod and shadow dance with secret tech

paper iron
#

because of this, u want always to have your sectech supercharged, so, with following the dance and all that stuff, you want sectech to be one of the 2 finishers following symbol

lost kite
#

For supercharger

paper iron
lost kite
#

Yeah generally I sod just before I enter shadow dance and secret tech first

paper iron
#

like here u can see, it delayed symbol because sectech was not ready (this is a sample from the 2nd dance during CDs

#

that s why we dont recommand to macro symbol and dance together, this kind of macro is a legacy from the past

lost kite
#

But why evis before secret tech

final holly
#

It's not off cooldown yet

#

In that example

lucid jackal
#

Because it's not up yet

paper iron
#

You can assume it wasnt ready by then, it pressed symbol when sectech was 10s off of cd to get it back

#

and this is something that happens a lot during your 2nd dance during CDs (and almost only there exceptions made), that s why you want always to sod in dance, yes, but you dont want to always cast them at the same time

distant plinth
#

During dance, is it not worth to use shustorm to get a dance macabre stack?

Not unless u plan on pressing bp

#

is it like max combo points + 3 or current combo points + 3

paper iron

current +3

weak hamlet

fk

IE if u have 6cp, it acts like a 9cp

weak hamlet
#

the whole time i was using it as if it was max combo points + 3 T_T

#

finishing at 1 suprcharged combo points,etc

paper iron
#

i might have missunderstood what u asked but if it s a thing : it goes past the 7cp limit, if u are at 7cp, it will act like a 10cp

paper iron
weak hamlet
#

so the finishing logic (# of combo points) doesnt change it all after pressing SoD correct?

paper iron
#

u still finish at 6+cp yes, supercharger is a "bonus", u dont finish at 3cp because supercharger makes it 6

!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".

Basically this

Should you macro the PvP agi trinket to Shadowblades or flagellation?

Shadowblades because that’s when your actual dmg typically begins

Is it important to get into stealth in m+ or is a tank who always chainpulls fine ?

alpine wraith
#

we get quite a bit of dmg from the first dance

#

but sometimes it is what it is

keen dome
alpine wraith
#

one thing you can do is vanish when mobs are low

#

to have tfd for the next one

worthy ginkgo
#

when do you vanish these days

#

Hello. Can anyone with a decent understanding of Sub message me so I can ask some specific questions. I have watched several guides on YouTube and read several guides and still feel confused on when to use what, how, and just general themes I don't understand.

lucid jackal
#

okl

#

just ask here

hoary lotus
#

Do I delay coup until fazed in st

hazy breach
#

You never coup without fazed up

keen dome
hallow yacht
#

So, when it comes to using Secret Technique. From my understanding, for optimal damage, you want it when Flag is near the end of its timer when it has accumulated the most stacks, right?

So, it's something like.. Shadow Dance, use a ST without CB. Then once its ST is off CD, dance again and use it as your second finisher with Cold Blood.

#

But only when Danse Mac has 4 stacks?

lucid jackal
#

Sounds like ur thinking about it the wrong way

hallow yacht
#

I am probably overthinking it. I had a good understanding of Outlaw/Sin.

lucid jackal
#

It's just "You use 2 shd/sod/sectec with flag/blades"

#

and yeah, you cold blood the 2nd one

hallow yacht
#

And also, SS with BP with 7+ targets, unless you have the AoE ability?

#

When theres a ton of trash present (think all the adds pulled in Mechagon before first boss), is it just spam SS and BP? Is that it?

lucid jackal
#

In dance, strike always, storm once to apply FW on 7 targets if you intend to black powder as ur finisher

#

Outside of dance, always storm on 2 or more targets

hoary lotus
#

2?

lucid jackal
#

yer

limpid sage
hoary lotus
#

In aoe 7+ do I send coup still or spam bp

lucid jackal
#

Cuz flag and blades = infinite damage cheat

hazy breach
limpid sage
#

Like the cold blood 2nd sectec

hallow yacht
#

I guess my issue here is just general confusion. When I pop all my CDs and pop dance, I am just spamming Shadowstrike to fill combo points, evic, SecTec as 2nd finishing and then Shadowstrike again and continuing to Evic

#

And obviously using CB if it's up

hazy breach
#

Sectech first finisher

hoary lotus
#

Sectec should be first

lucid jackal
#

in cds sectec has to be ur first finisher

maiden hamlet
#

Backstab first builder

lucid jackal
#

Otherwise you miss trinket buff

hallow yacht
hoary lotus
#

Danse mac stacks

maiden hamlet
#

Dance macabre

hallow yacht
vale pine
hazy breach
#

Should get the pvp trinket instead

#

Signet stinky

lucid jackal
#

Yeah you need a 1:30 or less trinket

versed swift
#

We finish at 6 cp right? I'm finding my SS regularly puts me at 5 and I have to use again or send short

lucid jackal
#

the spec is honestly not worth playing if you want to do damage without either the pvp trinket, or a house of cards, preferably

hallow yacht
#

I saw some video where some guy was doing like 7m AoE DPS. I Am lucky to break 4m, and even when I do, I'm scratching my head as to how.

arctic geyser
#

pvp trinket better than a 616 transmitter?

keen dome
#

Practice'll help.

lucid jackal
keen dome
#

No orb to go down the hole

hoary lotus
#

If you have cds you do big damage

#

No cds, no damage

arctic geyser
#

woohoo thats good news i hate transmitter

hallow yacht
#

That one?

keen dome
#

Hell yeah

#

Yep, that's the one.

arctic geyser
#

time to grind some conquest

lucid jackal
#

@hallow yacht

hallow yacht
#

So, when there's lot of trash, what should my general finishing be? BP always?

arctic geyser
#

im guessing you use the pvp trinket only every 1.5min?

lucid jackal
#

Yep macro to blades

hazy breach
#

Yes, macro it to blades

arctic geyser
#

sweet ty

keen dome
#

Pretend it's 1:30 instead of 1:00. And what they said

lucid jackal
#

Evis on 15 targets can still be correct

#

its just less damage

hallow yacht
#

So for single target .. Dance, Sympbols, backstab, CB, Sectec. Then just shadowstrike evic until everyhting is up again?

hoary lotus
#

Should I hold sod/sectec for dance?

maiden hamlet
#

CB is saved for 2nd sectec during cooldowns

arctic geyser
#

is it really a major difference to keep for 2nd?

maiden hamlet
#

Yea

lucid jackal
#

its like 1%? or 2%

hallow yacht
#

But use sectec as the first when stuff is on CD?

maiden hamlet
#

Around that

arctic geyser
#

then do you CB only on major cds and not mini?

#

to make sure its up

hazy breach
#

Yes

maiden hamlet
#

Correct

lucid jackal
#

If you send it the literal second it comes off cd, yes

hallow yacht
#

So, once flag and blades are popped, dance, SoD, SS > Evic > Backstab > CB > SecTec?

lucid jackal
#

If you are even half a second late, and you intend to send your CDs RIGHT as they come up, no

#

Dont bother

lucid jackal
#

You dont cold blood until your SECOND secret technique

arctic geyser
#

ok sounds good! ty

#

Do we think Sub going to be top rogue spec for raid?

lucid jackal
#

Baring having to make value judgements your shadow technique procs whether you cast Shadowstrike vs evis, this is how your opening sequence looks basically every single pull

keen dome
#

Sub's always really strong in the raid, imo. But it's only worth playing it if you enjoy it, rather than just because it's 'strong'

maiden hamlet
#

Prepull symbols -> strike -> flag -> rupture -> dance/symbols-> Bs -> trinket/pot/Blades-> sectec -> strike/evis spam based on refunds

hallow yacht
untold flare
#

is Deahstalker viable in m+?

lucid jackal
maiden hamlet
#

Dance again once it drops, but hold symbols until you use sectec/cb for supercharger

lucid jackal
#

sub is a very easy spec that people overthink

#

Look what I'm doing for half of the fight

keen dome
#

Complex rules. Weird logic. But not actually difficult. Just learning curve.

keen dome
lucid jackal
#

sub has 0 complex rules rn

#

THeres no dust

#

Theres no horseshit tier holding whatever else

#

Trickster gives u all the qol u need and the spec just functions

keen dome
#

It does have some complexities like the min/max on SecTec, the backstab, etc. It's constantly confusing or catching people out.

#

So I don't agree that it has zero complex rules.

lucid jackal
#

I personally wouldnt call "pressing backstab" a complex rule

keen dome
#

Also having to learn that, unlike most specs / classes, you can't just hit stuff on cooldown.

lucid jackal
#

It's just learning the shadow dance sequence

worthy relic
#

only important thing is to make sure u will have 2 dances and sod for flag

full wyvern
#

Honestly, this may be unpopular, but if you use Hekili it basically tells you your CD sequence perfectly. Everything outside of that is kinda bad

#

Then once you get the muscle memory you can turn it off

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

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.
karmic harbor

what are you guys crafting second?

keen dome
#

The item that simmed best, which for me, was a neck

#

I crafted bracers, can craft a neck, cape

#

whatever u want

strange saddle

lucid jackal
bleak night
wicked urchin
#

I crafted neck because I'm more likely to see upgrades in other slots in vault

#

And it was basically the best upgrade anyway

alpine wraith
#

neck was low upgrade for me vs head

#

that is why it is always better to sim

keen dome
alpine wraith
#

sub is complex

#

just not hard

bleak night
#

Yeah I agree with the main point

keen dome
#

It's also going to be subjective, too.

wet token
#

How much of a DPS loss would it be to macro Flag & Shadow Blades together? Is it a big big gain to flag before first rupture and then blades after first dance?

alpine wraith
#

now min maxing for specific fights with variable timers

#

that is when it gets hard

#

that is why lots of people struggle with sub in m+

#

because every dungeon is a world

#

every pull is anotyer

wicked urchin
#

I'm cringe and macrod Blades + Sectech

alpine wraith
#

someone dies pull takes longer

wicked urchin
#

on a different bind obviously

keen dome
#

Getting comfy with the timings at each key level, too, haha. And as people get better gear. It's funny.

maiden hamlet
hallow yacht
#

I have a generic WA question. How do I see all of my weakauras at once so I can move them around without overlapping other ones. When I pull up the WA menu, it only lets me move one at a time.

wet token

#

Do you see the little green 'eyeball' to the bottom right of each aura?

#

Click that

lucid jackal
#

If you use it with flag ur wasting like, 4 globals

alpine wraith

now that blades works with sec tech is even more important

#

the second sec tech hits like mike tyson

only thing that would change things a lot is if you take too long on mega coils

Pop CDs on pull then hold until right before ads basically on gally

alpine wraith
#

mug zee is just rude tho sometimes

#

you actually want to begin popping cds when 3 or 4 secs are left on adds

#

to get the first sec tech on their ass

#

just as they get gripped

you can just feint the aoe from the adds

#

and get on top of the dk

dawn hinge
# vague flame but i've legit had attempts where i walk in and die to melee in 3 seconds

pop evasion for first burst opener, then after that you'll learn his spell sequence and kite out the meleeing part, or pop a pot/bran potions (if he's even alive, not sure now with buffs to his survivability). never dps the adds, move the boss in circular motion so they mostly spawn in the same spot where you can do 3 bombs and kill them. you pretty much have a few burst windows for the whole fight, you do almost 20% of his hp in each, and they naturally happen during ability downtime. when you do last shield (those are at least easy as sub), just focus the boss and ignore the adds, they also tend to run out of non-bugged spawn spots so they spawn in the stands and you can't see their frontal markers, so just move around and kill

#

very cancer fight as sub, i've had a 7 min 6% wipe, and then because of bad spawns a 10m kill, which was some of the best gaming i've ever done

vague flame
#

yeah seems rough

#

what ilvl are you?

#

but ty for advice

dawn hinge
#

i did it at 653 or something with new 4set, but damage seemed the same as when i was 640 with old one. extra stamina does help with some leeway

in a perfect attempt, you can probably kill it faster than most specs, but that's with some really good rng

dawn hinge
paper iron
#

oh underpin ?? tier? I ve done it earlier with my shitty brann lvl 36 and grey spells. Heal brann is really mandatory, the fight is long but i found out i would just press flag on cd, and the rest of the time just focus on my football abilities. Spedning a dance only when he use his shield. Not the fastest at all but worked out for me. Also after a fail attempt, go out and reset it. Or else you might get weird robots spawns that makes no sens and make it way harder than needed (also bind interraction, op)

#

big proud of myself on that one, was not a stat check like zevkir or whatever his name 😒

paper iron
# tepid trellis should try and hit em more

i really tried to position myself the best and all, but since my guild decided to pump on them anyway, i didnt want to lose too much boss damage and make the fight randomely longer dead And yea i asked sometimes my tank to move the boss just a little bit but they stand their ground i guess dead
