it's leaning that way

#

gonna try for an outlaw wep

#

but may get baited again

lilac stag
#

between people trying to force macro everything , or worse cast sequencing shit... I really wonder what is the draw to play sub, vers playing a spec that it is typically easier for people to play and perform well on

copper horizon
#

Anyone know why my friends log got this red line on it ?

lilac stag
#

it's christmas in March

pure jay
#

is my mental

#

but if i cant play it like it should then obv its not

lilac stag
#

up until this coming reset. all 3 are mid. outlaw likely the best of the 3, but people are gun shy to play it

#

sub got play because of ptr hype and shittiny looking assa sims

gritty summit
#

how important is getting back into stealth during keys? most tanks in pugs chain

hazy breach
#

Not important at all for sub

#

Close to completely irrelevant actually

lilac stag
#

do it when you can for TFD, dont lose sleep over it

gritty summit
#

thanks ❤️

lilac stag
#

if I dont have cds up I ususally try to sit back and get TFD

#

otl > sub > sin

#

mugzee = sin

#

Playing smthing like sin on oab is legit just hard trolling fex

#

Even post buff

pure jay
#

i liked sub on heroic mug

lucid jackal
#

Mythic is a diff fight is the issue

#

where nothing in p1 matters

#

and only p2 matters

#

so execute 2 cds 1 with lust = gg

pure jay
#

fair

short radish
#

i mean this in the kindest way, if you are grey parsing then it is a skill issue not a stat issue

#

and you are likely missing a key part of the rotation

pure jay
#

but looking at logs when other rogues have 7k+ mastery its rough

short radish
#

as long as you are primarily stacking vers and mastery

#

and have't gotten high haste on everything

#

the stats are not as big of an issue as you think

#

outside tier there's just

neck/wrists/belt/rings

both wrists and belt can be gotten from raid as vers/mast

#

ring is farmable from top (since you use circes)

#

and just craft a neck

lilac stag
short radish
#

that should solve any potnetial stat issue

#

also yeah thats definitely not the issue

#

i fucked up on a heroic rix kill

#

where i didnt pop transmitter on pull

lilac stag
#

look at rotational issues and timing issues

short radish
#

so i was missing 7k main stat or something

lilac stag
#

dont look at anything else

short radish
#

still got 95

lilac stag
#

and focus on your play

short radish
#

💯

lilac stag
#

you';re just wasting time trying to sort out stats

short radish
#

looking over stats is just unhealthy meaningless coping

short radish
#

jinx.

pure jay
#

my comment about the stats wasn't meant to be that heavy

short radish
pure jay
#

its something I look at when timelines and cast counts show similar

lilac stag
#

this would be the equivalent of me looking at solo's outlaw logs and going well he's got 10% more haste than me, clearly it's not me being mid at a spec that triggers my fibromyalgia. lol

pure jay
#

yet abilities hit 2x harder

short radish
#

it is not a stat issue

pure jay
#

i never said my performance is because of stats

short radish
#

it's also a knee-jerk reflex for us whenever someone mentions stats

pure jay
#

apparently

short radish
#

to tell them how meaningless it is

#

so dont take it personally

pure jay
#

i am surprised I should be using wax and mastery flask still

#

but yea

#

my issue is not because of stats

short radish
#

ye

#

chances are

#

youre not doing the burst sequence correctly

lilac stag
#

Well you’ve been going on about your stats and gear for a good amount of time

lilac stag
#

Asked you to use !log. Got ignored.

pure jay
#

which I said

lilac stag
#

so now it be what it be. Good luck

pure jay
#

i can do it again if you'd like, it didnt sound like YOU were interested in it

I rather have spent my free time helping you with a log vs memeing on your missing mystery and bis list. Now it’s back to work.

pure jay

didnt ignore you on it :/

twilit phoenix

it's not about player skill tbh

#

it's entirely about your stat spread

I say from the comfort of my 800 dollar gaming chair

shrewd shadow
#

Is there a major dps difference from manually clicking each button vs keybinds? I’ve been reluctant to try binds

short radish
#

nah not really

#

clickers vs pressers vs typers

#

is like 2% dps difference between them

shrewd shadow
#

Couldn’t imagine there being a big difference, I just can’t rewire my brain for it

#

Like watching shindigw play stresses me out with half his bars hidden

short radish
#

oh wait

#

youre being serious

shrewd shadow
rustic geyser
#

I've met insanely proficient clickers before to be fair

but without a doubt it limits your skill ceiling, quicker than you'd realise

short radish
#

also depends how accurate you are at clicking

#

i suppose you get used to it

#

but it also means

#

you cant move your camera at teh same time

#

(unless you press keyboard to turn)

#

and if thats the case

#

it also means you cant turn as fast

rustic geyser
#

and your ability to on the fly read all the external information that you MIGHT have to engage with - depending on what level you play at

short radish
#

so yeah either way you are skill capped at some point

#

that being said

#

play however you feel comfortable

#

for the level of play that you are doing

#

like this guy

shrewd shadow
#

I mean I’m pushing keys and trying to myth raid lol nothing like top 100 guilds

rustic geyser
#

I fucking... we have people who keyboard turn in our raid

#

I had no idea right

#

till they had that "spinning issue" on the frost spider boss

#

in VOTI or whatever it was

#

and I'm like "wtf? spinning issue?"

#

and they're like "yeah if you're turning with your keyboard and get hit by this you just start infinitely spinning"

#

I'm like FUCKING TURNING WITH YOUR WHAT?\

shrewd shadow
#

Guess I’ll start rewiring my brain

#

I don’t move with my keyboard I use my mouse but that being said I’m losing dps

#

I have my whole rotation in order on my bar chungus

#

And just click across it lol

rustic geyser
#

unironically there's a hidden ultra giga meta if you can stomach being a fucking heretic and have an mmo mouse

#

you put your movement keys on your mouse... and just put all your attack keybinds on your keyboard

shrewd shadow
twilit phoenix
#

only pvp sweats do that really

rustic geyser
#

it is actually unironically better

#

but also

#

yeah heresy

shrewd shadow
#

Cursed

shrewd shadow
#

So

rustic geyser
#

you know what though...

IFFFFFF I didn't have 20 years of muscle memory fighting my every thought of this movement / bind layout

IFFFFFFF I was looking at struggling through the rewiring process as is

#

Id just bite the bullet and do it

pure jay

its def because of my stats /s

can do more damage by just playing the spec properly

ok i feel like

#

i just lost brain cells

#

watching that

#

oh i just ran a 10 floodgate trying to get a pacemaker

#

and realized my WAs don't update properly according to the cdr from the affix

#

so i sometimes sent symbols>evis on second dance and then was at 3 seconds left on sectec cd

#

when my sectec WA was showing it had ~10 secs left on cd

grand flame
#

Does anyone have a WA that only show shadow dances cooldown, not the atual duration. Why is SD implemented differently, than SoD....

#

I can only make it show cooldown when I use last stack, bet first stack always shows SD duration instead of cooldown. 😦

vale pine
#

alchemic chasos and versa are about the same, most players use versa because its more consistent

desyncing is so much fun

That one button macro is cursed beyond everything

#

If it was atleast a little bit right with the rotation but everything is just so wrong

I can see how a macro would benefit norman normal who just wants to have a bit of fun after 9 hours getting yelled at from his boss in his underpaid office job

But not like this

Went from skardyn 339 too cards 665, was 3,6% ST 😍

vale pine

but the pvp trinket is the

best option you can reliably get

clever delta
#

Playing pvp trinket on sprocket is bless

#

Killing that boss tonight and than bye bye sub

#

Will be remembered

vale pine
#

but subtlety is the best on all fights except mugzee

#

according to guy

clever delta
#

What can guy possible know

vale pine
#

boss timers and required damage ^^

dry plank
#

@clever delta outlul time?

clever delta
#

I saw that one public log with sub rogue on bandit and wasn't impressed

#

Our cd timers do not sync with adds

alpine wraith
#

maybe he messed up because they do syn

#

with the bombs

#

@lucid jackal and @tepid trellis can confirm better as they are there i think

clever delta
#

Isn't add timer spawn 1min

#

Idk I will pull that boss later today

native zodiac
#

Our 2nd cd timer perfectly lines up with the fixate adds

#

I havent gotten further so dunno further timers

#

Theres defo sets of assistant spawns where you just sit there and do nothing

clever delta
#

Yeah

#

Nukzz have dmg on only one set of them

native zodiac
#

P much

#

The fight in general is pretty whack for melee imo atleast

#

Having to bait the coins so you cant move to adds properly constantly

clever delta
#

We did not do any prep for bandit as we did not think sprocket will die in on night

#

With our 9h a week raid time

native zodiac
#

Yea sprocket got murdered

#

Kinda annoying when you progressed the fights and then it just flops over in 1 pull after reset Shrug

clever delta
#

Same as stixx

#

We progressed before last nerf and killed right after

native zodiac
#

@clever delta how far into bandit did you get

wraith solstice
#

Hello fellow Gamers, i just picked up Sub and i was wondering. is it correct that we have close to 0 haste and outside of Cooldowns we just chill very hard?

alpine wraith
#

yea 0 haste outside cds

#

and also low energy

vale pine
#

I did state it on purpose on wowhead because people starting to play subtlety often think they do something wrong if the pacing is so slow between cooldowns.

tribal blade
#

it took me a long time to get used to the downtime of sub after the rework

#

it really was practicing woo-sah to stay calm and not get omega tilted

keen dome
#

It was a pretty big change, haha

tribal blade
#

one of my guildies was going to play sub as his alt when sub was looking broken before this season, and he gave up because he couldn't take the downtime

oak idol
#

Do you weave in nimble flurry strikes alongside bp at 7+ targets?

fringe palm
#

Started taking adhd meds before raid instead of in the morning so I can play sub

tribal blade
#

with coup and strikes

short radish
#

just looting boxes that fly around?

tribal blade
#

iirc the weekly pvp quests

short radish
#

ahhh

boreal umbra
#

hey if we talent first dance do we do more then 8 globals or do we delay to secure full combo points at start of second dance ?

short radish
#

@waxen matrix do that

tribal blade
#

but i got HoC in my first vault so didn't need to do pvp stuff 😉

autumn glade
short radish
#

depending on how our sprocket prog continues i mgiht need to farm one so i dont have to use transmitter

#

its so aids with magnet

fringe palm
#

You could swap assa next week for it

short radish
#

i'd rather drag my balls through 10 km of broken glass thank you

tribal blade
#

sub is also just so much tankier

fringe palm
keen dome
#

So much tankier. It rules with this weeks affix

tribal blade
#

not a little tankier, much tankier

fringe palm
#

What

keen dome
#

Such ludicrous survivability

short radish
#

????

tribal blade
#

are you serious?

short radish
#

how is that cap

tribal blade
#

bro

stray rivet
#

How much you guys hit the highest for ur secret tech on ST?

keen dome
#

You should read your talents if you don't think Sub is tankier

tribal blade
#

sub has like triple the defensive talents and stacks vers

short radish
#

assi is most "fragile" rogue spec

#

sub you run around with passive 10% DR

#

and 140% movespeed

tribal blade
oak idol
#

I find outlaw the most tanky but thats problem because I dont know the sub rotation well

keen dome
#

And either 8% more incoming healing, or a 10% shield

tribal blade
fringe palm
#

Yeah not beeing able to press feint most of the fight without huge dmg loss is tanky, depends on the fight but sub feels giga bad in some encounters

autumn glade
#

we also stack vers on sub lol

fringe palm
#

If it's just rotting dmg sure

tribal blade
#

you also have like ~25-30% vers in raid depending on your gear

oak idol
#

I can have 100% uptime on feint if i wanted to on outlaw and like 10% evassion uptime

#

it feels really strong

short radish
keen dome
#

Feint is OGCD now too, so like. The only time you are pushing it with a huge damage loss is if something has gone really wrong

short radish
#

and its also like

#

in sblades you have infinite energy

#

so you can feint whatever

#

and when youre out of cds, your damage is poop so just press it anyway

keen dome
#

And outside it doesn't matter 'cos you do no damage

short radish
#

unless youre in normal sdance without blades

#

and if so

#

healers heal

tribal blade
#

you kinda dont even need to feint in cds because you're in dance with fade to nothing up

#

for most things

keen dome
#

Yeah

tribal blade
#

but yeah you don't lose much throwing feint in

fringe palm
#

I'll let my healers know their bad and I need to learn how rogue works o7

stray rivet
#

Is there soft cap on mastery?

short radish
short radish
tribal blade
#

i checked my damage taken on the first few fights of raid on mythic, i'm taking less damage than people who died early on in the fight

keen dome
# stray rivet Is there soft cap on mastery?

There's DR at 25,000 I think? But like, you don't care about it and don't need to think about it. Also % gain (So Flag) doesn't get diminishing returns, only raw mast does, as I understand it.

oak idol
short radish
keen dome
#

So you can just turn brain off stack mastery to the sky

short radish
#

healers aren't people

#

please do not dignify them like that

tribal blade
#

being able to stack vers is such a massive blessing

tribal blade
#

i feel like blizz needs to do something about that tbh

short radish
#

i can stand in more shit

tribal blade
#

haha fair enough 😉

short radish
#

dont look at my vexie damage taken

keen dome
tribal blade
#

oh i didn't look at vexie tbh because it's not really a boss

Deathstalker assa, it's about the same even

Freedom of feint and evasion is good

okay okay okay redemption for cauldron. bottom of meters except the warrior who died

Also it's really hard to do good damage in Vexie pugs 'cos it's so chaotic and impossible to organize proper bike usage 😦

fringe palm
#

The game is not about rot dmg, Noone cars if you on average take 10% less dmg

#

Cares

#

In fights that are, yes sub is tanky

#

But that's not most fights

short radish
#

yeah but

#

DR is DR

somber ether
#

That's crazy

short radish
#

you having a perma 20% DR

sly shore
#

Like pre nerf queen for example

short radish
#

is not just "oh who cares about rot damage"

sly shore
#

Having the deathstalker evasion at the 01.40 overlap

#

Was INSANE

somber ether
#

Our passive DR is the same as other classes' defensive cooldowns

short radish
#

^

fringe palm
#

Evasion hard carries

short radish
#

paladins have a 1min 20% DR (and some shitty shield)

#

and bubble i guess

#

we have a perma 20% dr

#

just by existing

somber ether
#

And then feint literally any time you want it

#

For no loss at all

tribal blade
#

i dunno i feel way safer whenever i play sub

short radish
#

same

keen dome
#

The only time the Sub rogue should be dying is if the raid has fully wiped.

sly shore
#

Lmao we're playing entirely different games then

keen dome
#

Or if they fell down the hole after an orb

tribal blade
#

i noticed it when i swapped from sin to sub on ovi

#

i could just live everything that would have killed me as sin

#

natty

fringe palm
#

Not to be elitist but at what level are you playing the game? That might explain a difference in opinion

somber ether
sly shore
#

Then your defensive usage as assa was terrible

tribal blade
#

maybe

short radish
#

acutally no thats a lie

tribal blade
#

but it was more so getting hit by things i didn't intend to get hit by

short radish
#

i did press it on pain points

sly shore
#

The only thing that did damage on ovinax was the swirlies so I ate them like breakfast

tribal blade
#

suddenly on sub i was chilling

short radish
#

but i dunno howanyone can argue assi is more tanky than sub rogue

sly shore
#

Who's arguing that

short radish
#

@fringe palm

#

this guy

sly shore
#

Equivalence is a wonderful thing

short radish
#

crucify him

#

burn him at the stake

keen dome
#

Make him 1 v 1 a Sub rogue

sly shore
#

Assa is flat out better at dealing with singular hit mechanics

#

It's not even close

fringe palm
#

I disagreed with someone saying sub is way tankier

short radish
#

and for that you have chosen death

#

i hope you have enough DRs as assi

sly shore
#

You literally do

short radish
#

what DRs does assi have

#

that sub doesnt

sly shore
#

Evasion and far more freedom to feint

short radish
#

sub has evasion though?

sly shore
#

Sub cannot feint outside cds without pooling

somber ether
#

I love pressing feint on sin and drinking a fucking tea

short radish
#

or is this some deathstalker thing

sly shore
#

You act like you run elu

somber ether
#

It's great!

fringe palm
#

Deathstalker evasion

short radish
#

wait

sly shore
#

Then ur bad rofl

short radish
#

leme look at the tree lmao

#

i havent seen deathstalker tree in a few months

keen dome
#

Evasion gives magic DR and Cloak gives phys DR on nightstalker iirc?

somber ether
#

I mean if you can't press feint outside CDs as sub you're trolling too big guy

fringe palm
#

Bro why are we even arguing ICANT

short radish
sly shore
#

At least they say it with their chest

keen dome
#

Because we're on the internet in a class discord with fierce opinions.

#

1v1 me in the gallywix hole

short radish
#

my opinion = based
all other opinions = cringe

somber ether
#

^

#

I'm a special snowflake and I'm always right.

short radish
#

my mother tells me im right

keen dome
#

i think we can all agree that Rogue is really tanky though

short aurora
#

!wa

wicked joltBOT
short radish
#

but i dont wanna agree 😦

keen dome
#

So why don't we have a tank spec?

somber ether
#

That would mean agreeing with other people

#

I think sin rogue is very squishy.

#

Literally squishier than hunter

short radish
#

i dunno i'll still die on the hill that sub rogue is tankier than sin rogue

keen dome
#

So do I but I get their point that it has way more freedom, esp with DS, for purposeful defensive usage. Whereas Sub is just naturally more tanky via passive DR's and stuff.

#

So the whole big hit v rot

short radish
#
  • vers is basically the DR bait and switch
keen dome
#

But as my brain is rotted I require more tankiness against it

tribal blade
#

don't forget this too

short radish
#

wait what

#

okay so we hvae 15% DR

tribal blade
#

from trickster

short radish
tribal blade
#

it all adds up

#

to a lot

short radish
#

no wonder

keen dome
#

Does it apply to the whole raid though

#

that's the real question

short radish
#

no but who cares

#

i'm the hero of the story

somber ether
#

5% from trickster, 10% from talent, 15% from versa

short radish
#

theres 0 shot youre arguing that assi is tankier

somber ether
#

Nah bro

#

You don't get it

#

They have bait and switch

short radish
#

that passive 19.5% DR

somber ether
#

Put a nice little feint on top of that

short radish
#

i guess you can also proc fade to nothing by using vanish as a defensive

#

also running around at 164% movement speed

#

makes it so much easier to dodge shit

somber ether
#

The virgin sin "I have to press evasion for 20% DR"

#

Vs the CHAD sub "my passive DR is 30%"

short radish
sly shore
#

No one is saying assa is tankier

#

You're the ones saying that we said that

#

We are saying assa is just as tanky

keen dome

But then you have to play outlaw

i dunno if i would hate to play assi or outlaw more

on one hand assi bores me to death

on the otherhand i dont want to get carpal tunnel

It's fine just put 5 different keybinds for sinister strike and dispatch so you can change what fingers you're destroying mid fight

i think blizz needs to do something about DR on vers

#

it's kind of unfair that some specs get to be tankier just by the sole fact vers is a better stat for them

#

can't believe i'm even saying it as we benefit from it a lot

short radish
#

no

#

delete this

#

realz still reads this channel

young trench
#

Just use a hotkey for max camera zoom
I have 3 zoom options bound to my numpad

tribal blade
#

(hey realz if you're reading this we need a faster way to apply rupture so we can keep up in mass aoe, please and ty)

short radish
#

Perhaps an aoe rupture, some form of ability where it is a tempest of bleeds

#

Perhaps a crimson tempest

proven plover
#

What about sec tec spreading it

#

As a talent

sly shore
#

Thats what i did

short radish
#

That sounds smart

#

But i think my muscle memory will fuck with it

keen dome
#

Yeah, ctrl+mwd / up is super comfy

#

It's what I have sb / flag on

alpine wraith
#

my camera zoom and unzoom are .-

#

my mouse is super binded with wheels up and down

keen dome
fringe palm
#

If vers is a good stat the spec has other issues with "good" stats just beeing dogshit, we take the dr as compensation for class design

tribal blade
keen dome
#

So we go back to haste/mastery/crit as the three stats

tribal blade
#

that is true, vers being good just means you don't have other stats that are good

keen dome
#

And every single item has Versa on it too. So you just naturally do more damage / take less as you gear. As a soft 'boost' to ALL player power over time

tribal blade
#

could be a cool idea

keen dome
#

So an item would be Crit / Mastery and then have like, 100 versatility on it

#

And at max ilevel it might have 300 or something I dunno

tribal blade
#

sounds a bit like old school pvp gear resilience

keen dome
#

Yeah basically

#

But for PvE and on everything

fringe palm
#

Maybe you could change vers to just give hp then if every item has it

#

And maybe rename

keen dome
#

I think Damage% done and damage reduction% makes the most sense

#

If you are doing pure Hp you'd just roll more stamina into gear

#

Two issues I forsee are: damage differential between those who have full Myth and those that don't being even wider (but this is pretty whatever anyway and may be a positive for people who are more casual, or play less competently)

#

And the other being swapping to new season gear being weird if they don't scale or increase Versatility on new pieces. I.e., you have 25% in full S1 Myth. Then swap to new season stuff and suddenly drop to 10%

#

You could keep it as a seasonal buff though where it's only active on the gear during the season. As an incentive to swap to new stuff sooner for this passive dr/dam stat.

#

because in my mind Versa is a very dumb stat that doesn't really do anything useful, but it has the potential to be really effective as a soft 'power++' to players over time in a season.

proven plover
#

I know its probably not the best reference, but on a pserver they introduced new stats called pve- and pvp power, which increased your dmg and reduced dmg taken in the given scenario. Each pve piece had a set amound of pve power, values dependant on gear slots, while there was also a cap you could reach by having all slots filled with pve gear.. but it would kinda destroy the possibility of wearing pvp gear for pve and vice versa which would be weird on retail

sly shore
#

I usually have 10-12k vers as assa anyway

#

I'm stacking no way!

alpine wraith
#

i will end the tier with 30k+ mastery trust

#

the finishers will be glorious i tell you!

keen dome
keen dome
sly shore
#

what is the max

#

with current gear

#

if you have big mastery

#

on every piece of gear

short radish
alpine wraith
#

ideally i also want vers on the gear so that makes things harder

sly shore
#

crafted gear

#

entirely crafted gear

alpine wraith
#

jastor is a 1/6 spread

#

so that is quite important

#

circe gives a truckload when you have high mastery anyway

sly shore
#

yeah

alpine wraith
#

engi helm+wrist is also a lot

alpine wraith
#

other things may be harder but belt there are quite some with big mastery even if second stat is crit

#

it is fine

keen dome
#

If only there was a trashmaster for mastery

alpine wraith
#

we will get ashkra mash anyway

#

so cloak is whatever

@keen dome my guild started stix prog earlier today

#

and i'm sorry to say i don't think it's puggable

keen dome
#

Absolutely isn't, yeah

#

I think Mythic is going to be sqaurely Vexie and eventually Cauldron

tribal blade
#

requires all 20 people in the raid to be able to ball roll

keen dome
#

Yep

#

MAYBE Rik'll be puggable eventually

tribal blade
#

rik isn't too bad

keen dome
#

But I think it'll just be the first two this season.

tribal blade
#

rik will be definitely puggable with more gear and the raid buff

#

when you can blow up adds fast

keen dome
#

The biggest issue is that nobody will join a Cauldron group though, if you've killed Vexie. So you either kill it in a few pulls or the raid collapses.

frail swift
tribal blade
alpine wraith
#

rik will be killable kinda

#

eventually

keen dome
#

But Vexie is extremely free in pugs atm, which is nice. I got myth boots yesterday from her.

tribal blade
#

rik isn't too complicated

#

the hardest part about rik atm is people getting mc'd during intermissions and killing the adds fast enough

keen dome
#

My heroic feeling is that the first 5 are free now, OAB is a huge pain point, then Mug'zee and Gally die if you get to them and people stick around for 2 - 3 pulls.

tribal blade
#

it's funny because i didn't find bandit hard at all, but i've only done it with my super organized guild group

#

so i'm literally just running around pressing dps buttons ahha

keen dome
#

Yeah

#

Pugs will wipe to OAB in two ways

tribal blade
#

interesting i found mugzee much harder than bandit

#

although it did get nerfed

keen dome
#
  1. Someone will pick up a coin and not dunk it / nobody will pick up a coin / someone will panic dunk the wrong coin = wipe
  2. Someone will run into the fixated boxes on the second roulette spin and wipe the group.
tribal blade
#

ahhh i see

keen dome
#

Mug'zee is suuuper solved for pugs, and you can immediately see who isn't paying attentio and replace them. You just do 1/3 and 2/4 for gaols on two marks (left / right) on all 3 fo them. Same groups alternating the big soak. And at the end of the fight you swap sides with the big bomb spawn.

#

There's no real thought needed for it since you can just RW all mechanics

#

And one or two people can carry the harder bits

#

Bandit wouldn't be an issue if you had to click to pick up the coin.

tribal blade
#

mmm good points

keen dome
#

Almost all my pug wipes have stemmed from someone picking up a coin and not noticing.

#

And if you hit P2 in a pug then it's almost always a kill because P2 is super easy

clever delta
sly shore
#

just find a guild ffs

clever delta
#

But you can give me some pro tips if you have

sly shore
#

pugging is literally self mutilation

keen dome
#

haha

alpine wraith
#

find a guild then get benched like the rest of us

keen dome
#

I have a guild! I've been with them for 15 years. They're terrible. I love them.

clever delta
#

Kpb how was bandit

alpine wraith
#

then have to find a guild again

sly shore
alpine wraith
#

it will be fun

sly shore
#

sprocket was a good fight

keen dome
#

Hell yeah, blast

sly shore
#

really good fight actually

keen dome
#

I like him a lot on heroic

sly shore
#

kinda crazy going from the worst mythic boss I've ever progged to a really good one

i think nerfed stix is alright

clever delta
#

I loved stixx after nerf

#

Was so chill

sly shore

overall kind of a stinker tier in terms of gameplay tho

#

not looking forward to mug zee

clever delta
#

Ass we go

vale pine
clever delta
#

Sprocket Is so fun

#

But ranged probably not so much

tribal blade
#

i agree, stix is just a visual clusterfuck of a fight

sly shore
#

it's not even that

#

it's that the gimmick of the fight is bad

#

in combination with the other mechanics

tribal blade
#

ball rolling? yea

sly shore
#

the rng factor of spawns

#

healers should not get balls

#

it just should not be a thing

tribal blade
#

sometimes your pathing feels so free and chill

#

sometimes it's something out of hell

#

it feels a bit too pass/fail in that regard

#

and every single melee on my raid team is not having fun atm haha

#

our enhance suggested to our RL going ele

#

i told him he should go ele the other night and he was like "nah, i'll just play well as enhance"

#

1 night on stix and immediately wants to go ele

Haven't played since s1, coming back heard sub was in a good place but saw there were some changes, r sub still in a good place or back to mediocrity

Sub is real good right now

we're doing pretty well

#

sub is not a troll spec to play right now

keen dome
#

We aren't the best. But we are strong and comfy and tanky and purple and do good damage.

Alright great, missed playing sub since forever

i want it to die in a fire

with me peeing over it's corpse

#

it's actually insulting blizz thinks they made something cool and engaging to play with

keen dome
#

Why couldn't they have done one hero tree for each spec instead of the weird dual thing

#

so annyoing

clever delta
#

What is this cope Monday m

#

Everyone saying how sub is good

vagrant fulcrum
#

no amp poison, no spatter to make darkest night function in aoe, lingering is extra wack

sly shore
#

it's just terribly designed

#

for both specs

#

the fact it's tied to an ambush from stealth

#

is ridiculous

keen dome
#

It's absurd

sly shore
#

just remove the stealth conditional

keen dome
#

Yeah

sly shore
#

make it applied with mut or ambush

#

the only downside is moving mark in aoe, but skill issue if you overwrite it

the raid profile fits outlaw just fine and it’s the highest tuned of the specs currently.

#

Hello everyone, it seems some things changed in the opener of sub rogue, we don't vanish/strike/evi before going into dance ?

lilac stag
#

It’s a simplified opener. No loss in dps. Been like that for a few weeks now.

feral barn
#

Why there would be a simplified opener if the dps is the same ?

winter python
solemn creek
#

U go into cd faster.

#

So its a win

feral barn
#

So basically we donnt vanish right ?

tribal blade
#

it gifts you a vanish to use however you see fit

feral barn
#

Yes i like it, just want to be sure i'm doing the best rotation i can do

tribal blade
#

yeah it's good, everyone is doing it dw

feral barn
#

Alright intresting, i see that we also backstab now at start of the burst

#

Day 1 i asked and got replied that it wasn't worth anymore

tribal blade
#

it hasn't been worth in a while, but it's changed now with the new tier

feral barn
#

Oh okay ! Noted, thanks

#

One last, on the second dance during burst, since we Evi / Symbols-evi / SecTec, i guess it's a loss to backstab after that ?

solemn creek
#

Its not

feral barn
#

My guess is that we only want to backstab in dance when it's low stacked ?

#

Ah okay

solemn creek
#

U bs at 0 cp with premed up

#

In your exemple u still have premed

feral barn
#

Ok so i always fit a bs once in my dances

How long does it take to get the legendary daggers?

Hey guys! New to sub rogue - I seem to be having a lot of downtime where my energy is just gigafucked… is that just the nature of the spec cos I can’t really see where I’d be going wrong here. It seems like I just have to wait for symbols or shadow dance or etc to come back up

#

Any ideas?

alpine wraith
#

yea we go like that

valid yoke
#

Okay so do I just use symbols etc on cd at that point?

#

Or do I want for them to fully stack charges?

lost kite
#

You need to make sure you have enough symbols for flag and always symbol with sectec

valid yoke
#

Gotcha

#

I assume you mean all through the flag 12 sec buff after as well?

alpine wraith
#

you need to be able to dance 2 times and use 2 symbols

#

so have at least 1 charge of dance and at most 20 secs left for next

#

and 1 stack of symbols and at most 10 secs for next

paper iron
#

🥺

#

highly miss you both

opaque crypt
#

just came back after stopping in DF. is there ever a time where you would hold Coup de Grace if the target is not fazed? i can see maybe if youre not in a dance/symbols timeframe, but not sure. kinda seems like you just let it ride otherwise

valid yoke
patent crystal
# paper iron

When will there be a dagger with funny effect again

#

feel like it should be time soon

tribal blade
#

which will be most of the time because of how coup procs your target will have fazed by default

#

there isn't really a need to hold coup for dance

opaque crypt
#

gotcha. so the natural flow of things should managed it passively, but something to keep an eye on just in case

tribal blade
#

yeah if you ever do something like hold coup for upcoming cds you'll want to make sure your target has fazed

#

which you can guarantee by sectecing 1st finisher

keen steppe
#

Its time for a new rogue legendary

tribal blade
#

then you can coup 2nd finisher since your target will guaranteed have fazed from sectec

#

many of us still play the "fun" simon says inspired trinket

#

isn't thta peak of design for "fun"

alpine wraith
#

fun is looking at embellish from a past expansion and seeing they give more stats

crystal bone
#

u guys are nuts, why play simon says when u can just wear house of cards 4HEad

tribal blade
#

bring back banshee's blight and put it in our talent tree

alpine wraith
#

give back prep let us limit break

#

reset everything

hazy breach
tribal blade
#

haha bring back prep and stealthi has to make the spreadsheet again

void hound
#

playing transmitter during beams + rockets on sprocket just to feel something

hazy breach
#

(its not that simple as the tww one has slightly higher uptime, but still, it should be noticeably better)

tribal blade
#

in a way it's nice that embels aren't as strong because it's a lot easier to swap between specs now

#

but now it's kind of like why do they even exist then

void hound
#

i think its lame, another one of those fake choices

#

then again, gearing is by all accounts really cringe in this game so its kinda whatever

tribal blade
#

i think embels should be swapped out for another system

alpine wraith
#

this patch gearing is so dull

#

i basically spammed m+ for 1 week

#

now my only looking forward is crafted items

#

oh and vault

#

because M raid is perma bench

twilit phoenix
#

Yeah it’s lame

#

Was kinda fun to pvp for some pieces

tribal blade
#

weekly vault is my favorite time of the week

#

i'd like to play with something like artifact weapons again

potent summit
tribal blade
viscid rune
#

wicked joltBOT
potent summit
#

It’s shadow dmg aswell and goes with the class fantasy

tribal blade
#

because sin is supposed to be the execute spec of rogue and apparently only sin can have everything all the other rogue specs have

#

but yeah it goes very well with the class fantasy

#

brings back sub funnel in a way (which used to be our thing)

potent summit
#

Take away rotten and give banshees blight

tribal blade
#

rotten right now actually works very well with how sub plays

#

i would say replace goremaw's

#

that spell is worthless

potent summit
#

Ya but you won’t take rotten

#

If banshees is there on the menu for goremaws

#

I guess

tribal blade
#

i think overall sub needs quite a bit of talent tree overhaul

#

there's a lot of spells that do basically nothing

potent summit
#

Ya but too few people playing it

tribal blade
#

we're kinda locked into 1 build

potent summit
#

So Blizz doesn’t care

tribal blade
#

my hope is we get given the shammy treatment

#

where they went from being mostly ignored to being one of the most iterated on specs this expac

potent summit
#

The problem is Blizz needs people assigned for every spec. But they don’t have enough people for it

tribal blade
#

it's truly a mess on their end

potent summit
#

Now I want banshees so hard 😞😞😞

#

Shouldn’t have read discord 😂

tribal blade
#

hahaha we had this discussion way back, i think during the big DF rework

#

it would be a slam dunk on blizz's end, everyone loves it

#

all the design work has been done for the spell

#

fits the class theme

void hound
#

wow midnight is gonna be our expansion

think about it, its on brand with the name

is there an add on / wa that track when Coup de grace is enabled ? i just want to add this to my setup not an complete wa ui

or how to create it in wa if someone know

When i played sub season 1 thats what i did

Just made a big glowing sign that screamed if it was up

Did the same thing for Clear the witness

#

yep thats what im looking for

tribal blade
#

i made my own WA for coup like that too

mint swift
#

I aint logged in rn but

#

You just

#

Uhh
It's like
Pre existing spell or smth

rustic pond
#

but i dont really know how to setup it in wa

mint swift
#

Look for coup

#

Bang

rustic pond
#

by myself

tribal blade
#

they have these pretty simple template ones that guide you through them

#

you can just tinker around with it and eventually figure it out

rustic pond
#

ok

#

ill dig it

tribal blade
#

if an imbecile like me could figure it out you can too

rustic pond
#

thanks

tribal blade
#

another way is to just find an existing WA that screams you have a spell up

#

and then edit the spell to be coup instead of whatever it was before

#

that was actually how i taught myself to do WAs

#

was looking at what people did for existing WAs

#

and tinkering with them to mold them into what i wanted

Btw

Rate my sleepy rat

like mage damage abilities and rotation is really easy, i would say defensive / utility wise it s probably the hardest

#

but damage wise

lethal yew
#

Yeah I was looking at lorrgs to get an idea. That fight was a pita, our comp is/was lacking in spread cleave so we would nuke the stacked barrels but 2 or 3 would spawn in Narnia and it felt so bad to hard swap as sin

paper iron

idk how some mages are just so bad
