now my trickster sims 3% better than my deathstalker in single target

#

will not even talk about the multitarget Comfy

#

and finally realized trickster gameplay is actually easier than deathstalker

#

and more comfortable with cds

#

I don't know, maybe be able to apply the deathstalker mark to several targets at same time will be enough to balance the 2 hero talents

random hare
void ocean
#

i think the worst feeling in the world is when between cds u sit on 6 cp with no energy and have darkest night proc 😄

alpine wraith
#

you actually pool before popping the mark

#

so you can stab once and sht fills cps

#

then you evis and get the mark back

placid crown
#

Also, applying the mark with an evis with 7cp is cool, be able to apply the mark with 6cp would be really cool too, very frustrating to cast an other builder just to go from 6 to 7 cp to then apply mark

alpine wraith

on lowtime on dance you just take the L

#

deathstalker should heavily impact vanish with juicy cdr on it etc to make swapping marks around not such a pain in the ass

hazy breach
#

The mark swapping is not a big issue for sub

young trench
#

i only played it last tier on sin so idk

#

still hate the hero talent

hazy breach
#

Ye its terrible because it doesnt really do anything coherent for sub

#

For assa its a bit iffy, but atleast doing the nature/plaugue damage on the target cleaves, which then circles back to the main target through singular focus

young trench
#

for assa you have one tree buffing envenom and the other buffing envenom xdd

hazy breach
#

For sub its just +plague damage on a bunch of spells and bugged interactions thats supposed to be buffing BP and eviscerate by a lot more than they do

all hero talents feel like they ended up designed with a specific spec in mind

Is sub performing better than assa on any fight other than rik reverb?

hazy breach
#

Mythic bandit

#

Theres a set of cc immune adds that spawn around 1:50 that needs to die asap, so you need either monks or sub rogues to burst them down

placid crown
#

Where are the statistics leading to say this haha

brisk raptor
#

I see I see!

placid crown
#

just kidding on the fact that very few (not enough?) guilds ended this fight

short aurora
#

do i store the 2 unseen blade stacks after a secret technique when i already have coup up?

brisk raptor
#

I feel like on some fights as sub, such as rik reverb for example, I’m lacking major nimble flurry damage compared to other parses. Is that just tank positioning? It doesn’t seem like other logs are swapping to the adds but they are cleaving them heavily, about 250k more dps with nimble flurry than what I’m doing

should i delay CDS a bit for the barrels on rik?

ok guys, hear me out... now, keep in mind im probably the worse rogue in the game... my main has been subtlety rogue for several expansions now... my alt (who was my main during legion) is a DH.

so, I was playing with my DH and I did this Undermine quest where I had to kill 100% the mob gauge to complete it.
As Havoc, I pull 30-40 mobs (I'm not even kidding): chaos nova > meta > laser eyes and I finished the whole thing in 6 seconds top.

Then I was like: ok let's try the same quest with my main now.
I go in as sub rogue, let dagger in the dark stack on 2 isolated mobs, enter combat, a third mob gets pulled, pop my cds, crimson vial and then I had to vanish when the 4th mobs got pulled and I almost died.

#

4 mobs btw

#

and my dh and my rogue are the same ilvl btw

Guys, which guide is the "best" to follow? Since IV-Method-WowHead are kind of different slightly in terms of BiS gear-crafts-talents

#

The differences are so minor that makes them all relevant?

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.

why is crafted cloak considered bis when catalyst cloak also give vers mastery?

Anyone knows if Geargrinder's spare keys are acutally good? Or do they just sim well for us

Theres dozens of combinations that sim exactly the same as the top one, with stat differences that is

is it a dps loss to delay the first symbols 1 gcd in opener after the backstab?

Why would you do that?

#

I mean, why no sod your first sectec?

west tide
glass jasper
#

That would be a very minor dpsloss, your first backstab gets no sod

vale pine
#

delaying symbols like this is actually fine

hazy breach

its fine, but why would you

raven maple
#

Are my eyes tweaking or is assa performing generally better than Sub right now?

vale pine
#

so if you want to see full effects of the buffs is to lower the log timeframe to 1 day

#

so you will see assassination increase on the statistic over time when the pre buff logs start to face out

raven maple

Ahh I appreciate it, I'll check the logs again later on

do i have to much mastery or why is house of cards simming lower than last season transmitter?

hc is worse

small juniper
#

ye thats normal

#

u do have a lot of mastery tho

blissful shore
#

damn

#

cuz our other sub rogue gets 17k from hc house of cards

#

and i get -2k

#

i dont want to have transmitter

#

so annoying

#

should i try to lose some mastery?

Can we cloak the knockback effect on sprocketmonger?

we did a small experiment sim with stealthi a while ago

Cooldown Use:
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.

go from there

#

Sure, but the sims also include the result for just swapping the gloves, which confused me - one of them has it at -5400 dps, another at +500 without changing any other piece of gear. That's why I resimmed it a bunch of times with just the gloves and still got a difference of about ~3400 dps, which is 3x the margin of error of ~1092 dps

#

Almost 6k diffence in sim dps is pretty big when picking out upgrades and weird if it's the difference in simming the same item a bunch of times

Which btw has absolutey marginal differences to my already equipped gloves - same stats, just sligthly different spread

Hello rogue gamers, I'm pretty new to rogue and started playing it 2 days ago since I need to reroll it for myth prog for my guild. I'm kinda getting the hang of the opener now, but I still have two questions I cannot really seem to find an solution for:

During your burst window, you're using backstab after Dance + Symbols to prepare your ST, does it matter or change anything if I just use a shadowstrike instead?

Second thing I can't seem to get the hang off: When do I use Dance so I can (for example) Strike -> Evis --> Chargeback of CP --> Evis again? Sometiems I can, sometimes I can't so I guess that there has to bee a timing of when you should pop it, is that correct? Would like some advice PeepoLove

That one will always make it so when I cast Dance it will use backstab first and then strike, i guess, yeah?

The other thing you can do is track how many stacks of shadow techniques you have. >= 7 means the next spender will fully refund

I have this on Q and 1 is my backstab/shadowstrike macro

For example

#

Speaking of the macro, has anyone run into an issue where your first SD in blades is ending right at the end of a gcd and mashing the macro just queues up a backstab instead of going back into SD?

Or is this just a skill issue on my end

the burst is fun though

should i only be doing 2 dances with my cds or do 3 to take advantage of tierset stacks

alpine wraith

yea problem is reels are 3x so often

#

at least we are good on big adds

#

and also smalls becasue we can always vanish the fixate

#

so we dont ever need to run away

so not using vanish on pull is big possible value

bleak wind
#

so is the bike trinket from first boss not actually splitting the damage or is there some 'do more damage up to 5 targets' thing

hazy breach
#

I think they all have the "do more damage up to 5 targets"

#

But its still kind of a meme

#

It used to be 20% extra per target so it would be 80% more at 5, i vaguely remember them buffing this to 40% per but cant find a source

bleak wind
#

I always thought it was 100% extra at 5 targets

full wyvern
#

grey parsed rik because I was on solo bomb duty 🙂

hazy breach
#

Idk its usually worse than stats in aoe anyway

#

Split damage cringe

final holly
bleak wind
#

ye, but a mythic one sims a bit more than a hc thug line so using that one for the moment

hazy breach
#

Fairly sure it does the split and increase thing ye

bleak wind
#

ye looks like it

#

just thought that it didn't split but its actually the 5 target thing

hazy breach
#

Im playing pvp trinket because i cant be bothered with transmitter garf

#

I am very close to doing that as well

#

I had jump one time on sprocket, pressed W while jumping went into the other group kekw

hazy breach
#

Yeeee

#

Actually cursed

plush roost
#

pausechamp

hazy breach
#

Its a bit annoying with the chip baits on bandit too

#

So i just said fuckit and went pvp

bleak wind
#

ye I notice it more on pull

#

started pressing it pre pull

hazy breach
#

On pull and at the 1:50 burst

#

Its still playable, but i just cba

bleak wind
#

I know what you mean

hazy breach
#

Would recommend holding vanish for the 1:50 adds if youre not doing that already btw, its nice to not be focused

bleak wind
#

yea I am trying but I see it off cooldown and just press it, need to fight the urge

hazy breach
#

Fair enough

bleak wind
#

do you have to vanish after they start walking or as soon as they spawn is ok

lucid jackal
hazy breach
#

Or like, you can wait longer, but since they refixate, you risk baiting some other melee if you wait

where do we get spark this week?

Why are all the top logs on Rik delaying CDS on pull? when I wait till after the first amp goes down the 2nd CDs seem to overlap the intermission and I cant always get the 2nd SecTec off before he goes immune

iron obsidian
#

probably for the first set of barrels

bright elk
#

they dont seem to line up well either way

#

unless im messing up

iron obsidian
#

i always had a dance + symbols + sectec for barrels

hazy breach
#

You can get the entire blades out, youre probably delaying it a few globals

bright elk
#

anytime I get targeted with that blue circle and have to break open an amp i lose enough uptime to ruin that 2nd set of cds

hazy breach
#

Yes if you get that its fucked

bright elk
#

or bad barrel spawns

#

are you guys swapping off the boss for barrels or just cleaving off boss?

hazy breach
#

If the boss is close hit boss, if its far swap

#

Technically you get haste for main targetting the barrels, so you could do that but its kinda whatever for sub

jaunty heath
#

I targeted an add for secret tech in case of clone weirdness

#

Also im in that list for the first time lesgooo

hazy breach
#

I did the non-sub thing this week and only went for boss dps pretty much

jaunty heath
#

I don’t even know how they do it we only used 1 br on that fight

#

It’s prog n shit i get it

#

But holy

#

Theres a bit of a gap

hazy breach
#

Ye you need some padders for that

jaunty heath
#

Idk we have to have ALL our ranged on a far add literally ST or it doesn’t die

#

Boomkin is a private friend of mine he was fuming

#

He got to starfall 3 times on kill

#

Because solo adds wouldn’t die

jaunty heath

warped ferry
#

Okay figured

bright elk
jaunty heath
#

Well a lot of your damage is supposed to be on adds

#

So getting the adds in your cb secret tech does a lot of work

bright elk
#

true

jaunty heath
#

It’s not hard to not cd on pull I thought it’s annoying for like 5 pulls

#

But you get used to it

#

Make yourself a personal note on MRT

#

Copy lores

#

Lorgs*

bright elk
#

even when I delayed the cds it didnt seem like it lined up well

jaunty heath
#

And let Kaze shout at you

#

It does

#

You even have them up a bit earlier than needed

bright elk
#

most of prog I was delaying till right after the area denial amp drop thing

#

maybe I was just sending the dances too early

jaunty heath
#

I stayed in it and before he dropped is kinda when I flag

bright elk
#

doesnt it stun you? or can you cloak it

jaunty heath
#

Evasion

bright elk
#

dang wish i knew that lol

jaunty heath
#

Doesn’t make a huge diff tho you can flag after too

#

Like right after

bright elk
#

thats what I was doing, I guess ill try it again next week

jaunty heath
#

Personal MRT note makes life easy if you struggle with when to dance

#

But most of the fight is

#

Cds-dance after and next dance on adds

#

Cds again

#

You have 1 dance between cds and next add spawn

#

And then the adds after you have cds again

#

I found one add spawn that fit for sod + secret tech where I couldn’t dance

#

That’s it

bright elk
#

ok yeah that 2nd dance between cds I think I just kept doing too early, I wanted to make sure i had dances/sectec up for the next big cds

jaunty heath
#

Don’t have to worry about that

#

Generally speaking

#

Cds - 2 dances - CDs - 1 dance

#

Repeat

#

Makes sure you always have 2 dances for CDs

bright elk
#

well now I wish I could try that agian lol its Stix time now

terse knoll
#

/m

jaunty heath
#

Cba to prog that as melee

#

Also making sure my pirate friend stays in the raid Surebud

hazy breach
#

And continue dpsing instead of running out and pressing bp

iron obsidian
#

for the 1hr tricks

#

do i need to press it every 30 seconds still

#

or does it not matter

jaunty heath
#

Well if it’s 1hr you don’t have to press it every 30 seconds

iron obsidian
#

well idk how it works

#

first time playing trickster

jaunty heath
#

Just generate threat once

#

And ur good

iron obsidian
#

k thank you

bright elk
#

if you die you have to redo the tricks i believe

#

my guild's got too many melee, these spread circles fuck

Can you swap off a target with Flag and still get the mastery buff?

#

dude i was pulling around 3m overall on a 10 rookery as sub, and i was happy with 'i'm doing good boss dmg at least'

#

fuck sub, assa does 5m

#

:/

cloud kestrel
#

5m overall? Bleed build?

iron obsidian
#

sounds like it

hazy breach
#

People really do be exaggerating

tidal salmon
#

weird part is nope lol, hybrid

#

boomkin on the party was mindlost, doing healer dmg which affected it tho

#
  • monk and war in the comp
#

but still, i guess i'm never going back on sub unless top or workshop

#

arguably only top actually

lucid jackal
#

(1mst)

hazy breach
#

If youre doing 5M as assa and 3M as sub theres more to it than simply the spec difference shrugeg

iron obsidian

man im fucking ass at sub

#

but was forced into sub prison because my guild doesnt know how sin works

#

even when i try to tell them

small juniper
#

anyone else get mythic hoc today

lucid jackal
tidal salmon
#

but its not doing that bad single

#

not as bad as boomkin at least

hazy breach
#

Surely it drops

#

(and we kill it, which is not 100% either)

indigo steppe
#

I keep seeing on guides that race doesn't matter but is that for decent ones? I'm playing vulpera and I feel like I'm kinda trolling with how dogshit the racial is

#

Kinda hard telling how much it would actually increase DPS over a key since sims are usually just like 5m

#

I don't think there's a single other vulpera rogue over 3k Cring

still quartz
#

it doesnt really matter dps wise

#

probably 1% dps or maybe close to 1.5%

indigo steppe
#

I don't see how it's not higher though isn't orc/morc racial basically like free skardyns

hazy breach
#

Ye so like 1-1.5%

#

Them being 2 minutes is kinda cringe since it doesnt line up

#

But you just macro it to blades and pretend its 3 min

indigo steppe
#

I think that's assuming I actually press bag of tricks though xD

warm marlin
#

i was doing it early prog and it was kinda wild trying not to drop globals running over on that timer

lucid jackal
#

U cant

#

Cuz doesnt the boss move across the arena

#

Like u dont really have the ability to

warm marlin
#

with sprint and cloak it was kinda possible

#

obv ur saccing defensives

bleak night
#

what is the range of sectec

#

for the cleave i mean

hazy breach
#

Not sure, probably like 8 yards

#

If i had to guess

bleak night
#

ok i kinda just gotta get a feel for it i guess

#

playing sub on riccardo

#

and im doing like tank damage to the boss because im never sure if i can reach barrels with sectec

#

so i always just send into barrels

lucid jackal
#

I mean Ik u can

#

Just a li'l crazy lol

hazy breach
#

Thats so close to the reds

warm marlin
#

monkaSteer too much speed

bleak night

edgy zenith
#

bro get me OFF this boss

#

actually such a bad fight

swift tinsel
#

Is there a rhyme or reason to how the bombs drop in gally p1 hc? Some of them seem to drop in random places

#

One of them looks like the bomb box drops near people but the other will drop in no man’s land sometimes

edgy zenith
#

think they drop on pets

#

images, etc

#

but should be random target as far as I know

swift tinsel
#

We’re stacking on specific spots in the quadrant and they appear way off to the side sometime tho

#

So the big circles still kinda overlap each other

#

It’s very inconsistent

edgy zenith
#

yeah, idk how it works but someone always says "ranged bait" before the bombs come out

#

so

#

think it's baitable

swift tinsel
#

Yeah we tried that

edgy zenith
#

not a huge deal either way

swift tinsel
#

So they bait at alternating north and south but they’ll drop east and west

#

Idk our guild was getting torched by them

edgy zenith
#

really?

#

that's the onlym echanic happening lmao

#

just walk out

swift tinsel
#

Yeahhhh

#

They spent half the night trying to game the drops instead of just moving

edgy zenith
#

i kinda respect it honestly

swift tinsel
#

I think the idea was making the diffusing easier for the tanks but idk

#

I wasn’t paying that much attention to that part lol

#

Also our war tank was taking 100% of the trick shots when they swapped but our bear took zero damage from it

sturdy moat
#

How is sub feeling compared to other two specs ? Now that sin is buffed in keys and outlaw does crazy damage in raid i dont see what niche sub has

sand monolith
#

It's fun

jaunty heath
#

Blowing up adds

#

Which neither of them do

#

But there’s also not a lot of relevant fights for it

hazy breach
#

For most fights youll find atleast 2, but usually 3 of the rogue specs in the top 10 of rogue damage

jaunty heath
#

Not at OAB yet but I guess sub is the better prog choice there?

hazy breach
#

Its not like sub is getting gapped by the other specs, or the other way around shrugeg

jaunty heath
#

Yuh it really doesn’t matter atm

#

Rogue solid

#

Nothing special nothing terrible

#

But solid

bleak night
#

i mean its niche is quite useful on rik

edgy zenith
#

arguably it's getting gapped by Outlaw

bleak night
#

probably oab too if you dont have turbo comp

hazy breach
edgy zenith
#

but Outlaw turbo cringe

lucid jackal
jaunty heath
lucid jackal
#

WW, Ret, Sub are like, the sort of designated bomb killers

lucid jackal
#

If u dont have 2 ppl killing they live for a really long time

bleak night
#

but uh

#

down here its kicking my ass

jaunty heath
edgy zenith
#

@hazy breach

jaunty heath
#

But in reality it’s not a relevant boss

lucid jackal
#

Do you understand that WCL isn't the game

bleak night
#

yeah in the grand scheme of things

lucid jackal
#

more specifically, the WCL statistics page

hazy breach
#

Bro theres like 2 people playing outlaw

#

The stats are skewed as hell

#

And not usable

edgy zenith
#

yeah there are a lot of sub players

hazy breach
#

If you look at the top logs

jaunty heath
#

What’s the sample size of sprocket even in general

hazy breach
#

Theres literally 1 of each spec on pretty much every boss

edgy zenith
#

and they're gapping even the max sub log

#

Outlaw crank

#

Sub is still probably better for prog

hazy breach
#

Did you read what i wrote

lucid jackal
#

Here lets look at an individual fight

bleak night
#

the only one of those 4 fights its getting gapped on in top logs is cauldron

#

and thats the second boss lmao

jaunty heath
#

That boss sucks btw

#

Fuck cauldron

hazy breach
#

Ye and thats because if the person logging is on the other side sub loses 200k dps

lucid jackal
#

So keep in mind

#

Sub on average is going to log worse, because its a coin toss if you just dont deal damage

#

lets look at actual carnage logs

#

I wouldnt call this "gapping"

jaunty heath
edgy zenith
#

WCL isn't the game bro

lucid jackal
#

Are you fucking stupid

edgy zenith
#

cmon bro

jaunty heath
#

Im literally in the wrong group fuck me

lucid jackal
#

or are you stupid on purpose

#

Like were you born this way or do you just do this online to troll

edgy zenith
#

why we're really angry

bleak night
#

new meta ask to be in group with logger so akaari doesnt get you

hazy breach
#

You can also log yourself, but ye

bleak night
#

idk i gotta open the app

#

and click live log

lucid jackal
bleak night
#

thats a lot of work

#

or upload later

#

idk man

hazy breach
#

Im also like 99% sure holding cds for clash is better

#

So you get to cleave all of your uses

jaunty heath
bleak night
#

i saw that you were doing that

#

if i was playing sub on that boss i'd try it

#

probably pretty good

bleak night
jaunty heath
#

Fuck Noggen beating my soul btw

warm marlin
jaunty heath
#

What a trinket that was on outlaw

warm marlin
#

or the cleave range is much larger than it seemed

hazy breach
#

The bosses hitboxes are big, but yes you need to stand in the warzone

edgy zenith
hazy breach
#

Only thing is sectech wont ever cleave

jaunty heath
#

I thought about cauldron the other day too, I tried cding the clash for a few pulls while also actively being in the warzone

#

It didn’t seem to matter

#

Kinda same

#

Probably also heavily killtime dependent if it’s worth or no

edgy zenith
#

yeah, surely an extra flag is better than a cleaved one, no?

celest mulch
#

!wa

wicked joltBOT
edgy zenith
#

do you not lose a cast holding with standrad kill times?

hazy breach
#

3 cleaving vs 4 non cleaving

edgy zenith
#

hmm

jaunty heath
#

I mean if secret tech isn’t cleaving

#

I doubt it’s worth

edgy zenith
#

yeah, I don't know how much extra dam you'd get. has to be like 33% more to be equal

#

seems kinda hard without sectechs cleaving

#

nimble is what, 50%?

#

60?

jaunty heath
#

Especially if you only do 3 you don’t get a flag In pot right

bleak night
#

yeah thats rough

#

if you have a longer kill time its probably better to use in clash for sure, but if you have a longer kill time you arent parsing

jaunty heath
#

Tell me with my 08:30 kill timer

bleak night
#

well i say that but second highest parse is 7m

jaunty heath
#

Was amazing

bleak night
#

uh

lemme check what ours was

im sure it was not good

hi guys : D iam new to rogue. and i think Dathstalker plays more smooth. is it very far behind Trickster? Thx for your help ❤️

alpine wraith
#

it is a bit behind trickster on st

#

but i find interesting that it plays smoother for you

hazy trellis
#

it feels so wroing for me to use backstab in starting dance window u know what i mean? XD

wraith sphinx
#

u dont really have to do that on trickster tbf if thats whats keeping you from playing it

#

it's such a minimal increase in dps

hazy trellis
#

ok

#

i really didnt get

#

why people do this

#

xD

wraith sphinx
#

its just for the extra Danse Macabre stack, but it wont ruin your gameplay if you dont do it

hazy trellis
#

well. without this backstab i just can pop everything

#

and BAM

#

thats amazing ^^. i think i will first play like this and bind my backstab. thx m8

#

maybe i will learn it xD

tribal blade
#

the backstab in dance doesn't really change the flow of the spec at all

#

you're just pressing backstab instead of strike

#

trickster is much smoother for sub because you have far more cdr on secret technique

#

which makes the cd windows much better

hazy trellis
#

yeah. my problem is that i have the same keybinding for it. >.<

#

its on my transform bar. just need to find a good key for me i think

tribal blade
#

it would be worth having a seperate keybind for backstab

Hey. When playing with First Dance sometimes it finishes 6 sec Timer and then Starts a new 6sec Timer. Any idea?

alpine wraith
#

yea if you enter combat it can reset

#

why?

#

because fuck you

dry plank
#

And it did not start immediately after you leave combat

#

Great example in workshop before spider spawn after 3 robots you sometimes can wait till it resets and sometimes it start countdown few seconds after you in stealth

glass jasper
#

That's why I'm considering just running weaponmaster for m+ instead of TFD

#

Becaus TFD is just buggy and annoying

#

Sure, might be theoretically better. But its making me go mad

jaunty heath
#

Not sure, it probably needs to work once or twice only to beat weaponmaster

glass jasper
#

Thats true actually

#

Might be enough for it to work on opener

#

To be good

dry plank
#

Just ignore that

glass jasper
#

opener 1st pull*

jaunty heath
#

Better than weaponmaster at least kekw

#

God we do have some deadge stuff in our tree

glass jasper
#

Anyone in EU wanna T11 delve with my hunter?

alpine wraith
#

it is a lot better not theorically tho

dry plank
alpine wraith
#

just remember it takes like 10 mins for wm to beat tfd if there is almost any aoe

#

and even more in mass aoe

#

so even getting 2 or 3 USES across a whole key

#

is better than the wang that is wm

glass jasper
#

Alright I'm sold

#

I will keep it but i won't be happy about it

jaunty heath
#

Just ignore it exists

#

Be happy when you have long dance

#

Ignore if you don’t

alpine wraith
#

you can save vanishes to use it before a pull with cds

#

the diff between a tfd double dance and one that does not in cds in very noticeable

jaunty heath
#

Also one question for tfd while we are at it

#

Loads of times it ends right when tech cb would be

#

Wait nvm my question

#

Initial hit secret tech ain’t doing shit anyways

#

Doesn’t matter

alpine wraith
#

yea you just sec tech on the second dance

median nacelle
#

happy friday fellow yellows

glass jasper
#

That pulls me back into combat anyway

alpine wraith
#

as long as you dont get hit the timer continues

#

you entering combat just resets it but not more than once

#

so on some pulls before cds you can vanish and just go forward or backward

tribal blade
#
