it is same duration kinda
just triple goremaw dmg as god intended
so now we can cleave a 20m dmg hit
finally got house of cards and macro'd it to shadow blades. did you notice some weird usage where cards dont go off and sometimes it does?
supercharge Goremaw somehow
No, do you have it on a bar thats swapping with stealth
(aka you havent put the macro on your stealth bar)
genius
actually i havent checked in like 1 month if goremaw cleaves
lets see before poe2 begins
nope still does not cleave
!macros
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.
!mistakes
Here are some common mistakes and how to spot them in your logs:
- Go into your log, press Timelines and Casts to the right like this
- Every single Flagellation & Blades window should look like the opener in this picture. Coup, shadowstrikes and eviscerates can move around a bit depending on procs, but all the other spells should be used exactly like this.
- Make sure you always get 8 globals of during your shadow dances. You can hover over your shadow dances to see the exact times they start, and then see if your 8th spell is within 8 seconds of that.
- If your shadow dance and/or symbols wasnt ready in time to be used like in the picture above you used too many in between your burst.
friends from last season stop playing?
they will play again end of season
i love when people like this dog still try to say something
what? you had friends I asked if theyre not playing. get off your high horse
!log
tbh i would wait until next patch at least to push
probably costs less more fun gearing options with corruption.
!wa

good dps boomkin 
hahaha, damn. That would've been the perfect comeback
which would be weird cuz mages prefer to not play fire but they keep making fire a bit ahead every patch
Well thats because mages have 2 specs besides their sub
Arcane is usually nerfed/the others are buffed whenever its the best
arcane is either not good enough at bursting, or too good and help rwf to cheese
good design
(same design as sub rn and it s not too good enough)
i feel like
meh arcane really felt like current sub when i played it early df (i think?)
spam buttons in correct order during cds
and just spend ressources outsid
but anyway, difficulty is different for everyone
Mages prefer frost so they can play ez mode
I feel like every mage just wants to play fire
!up
I'm thinking about making a fire mage alt
ive seen a few frost mages
i have to say again
but thats in weekly 10s not real keys
what does fire do
you just jump and press fire blast right
at 85 apm
the dps rotation is totally brainded, but then u have to rotate with 6 defensives and multiples cc and stuff in your toolkit
(which is not true in big teams cuz they got babysitted and they aint wasting a gcd in bust / hypotermia)
i really think
fire mage is absolutely trash in low key (as below 16) and in pug
like there is a difference at some point when u dont hold bust at any moment, meanwhile in 13 14 rn i just gotta hold bust every end of pack and yea, mage outside of bust does sub damage
For m+ sure
Our entire raid has 0 dks except our dk main guy 
our 2 dks rerolled ww this tier 
yea, those fuckin sub 16 peanut keys 😄
wasnt trying to be arrogant or anything, i havent timed a 16 myself. I just watch lot of hopefull / wildi / asuna cuz i like the mage pov, and i can see the diff between sending 3 bust in a pack, and having to hold your bust half the time
How are you guys tracking first dance? Is it in your packs?
Get it solved through a friend, nvm. 
Having to hold it in when you wanna bust sucks fr fr
You don’t deserve that Charlie Brown pfp
Is this enough mastery
does the APL handle the pvp burst trinket correctly?
fire mage is cool
arcane and frost on the left
fire on the right
It lines it up with flag and blades yes
ty
its a good start
!wa
is pacemaker more optimal for m+ than eye?
maybe
in terms of uptime if tank is not pulling either massive or without little breaks
yes infinitely better
eye will be better if you play around it perfectly
which is a huge ask
Quick question boyz, do we sit on coup in 7+ targets ?
no never
always send coup no matter the target count
That's what I thought
@vale pine Maybe put a little note in wowhead guide about it ?
looks like i'll be playing mostly sin in keys from now on
unless they buff sub
Broadcasted live on Twitch -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/zerocoolx
anyone know how killing 2 yes men at the same time works
oh nvm apparently it didn't work lol
guys whats more important mastery or vers?
Sim
Friendship
when using badge trinket, do we wait for 30 seconds for cds or send it every 1 minutes
cdS
You wait. Pretend it's a 1:30 trinket, not a 1:00.
You can macro it to blades and it'll take care of itself.
for them managing bust is pivotal to time the key,for the common pug firemage holding bust is kinda trolling
diff game^^
@random hare this is you ?
spaghetti code 🍝
it has nothing to do with QoL though and it only affects oulaw, rather negatively
wait i never heard of that, outlaw was able to cast coup back to back?
yes
with enough haste during AR since the gcd is 0.8
it was a big factor ye
gotcha
its not the same thing but I guess kinda same implications?
you could get extra flawless form stacks + extra cdr
i meant kind of like that situation where it gets fixed and it's essentially a nerf
oh yea
oh that's actually insane for outlaw yeah
its 5% nerf
well i'm happy with my decision to start playing sin in keys
even more now
just gonna use sub for some of the lower target count dungeons
I've been going with the no KB bleed build for 10s and it pumps, like 4.5-5mil in almost every key
we don't talk about that
HAHA
i thought so
unless you can convince your tank to pull mobs on top of every boss
its better than hybrid on single target
not that, that means anything
since they are both kinda shit
ct goes brrrt
sounds like generally the same, just you have x2 shiv charges now
and no KB
pretty much the same yes
yeah and no KB
your cooldowns feel weird though, kinda pointless 😄
full vibes
interesting might be worth trying in something like cinderbrew
it does ALOT of dmg
getting pi with bleed build in st
30% more bleed dmg during shiv
30% more during execute
my god
well capped 30% from shiv
kinda makes shiv with arterial previcion your cooldown I feel like
honestly sounds cool, gonna try it out
It does sound pretty fun just to do absurd damage on trash
It cranks and KB is basically useless in keys
not a fan of kingsbane in general tbh
i find it kind of toxic to play with
I think it's interesting with how you amp it with Shiv, but it jsut feels weird.
like a lot of things rogue. It’s got a fun concept and pisspoor development execution.
Haha, yeah
A parried kingsbane is a pain I’ll never forget.
can you still play iron wire with that build
Also that, yeah. The fact you can be parried is just some peak "lmao, why"
i think in general you can't really run iron wire anymore
you just lose a lot of dmg
no matter what you drop
This is the basic build: CMQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYMjZmxMAAAAAAAzixsNDAAAAAAttMzMYmxYmZWmlBjxMzMzMzMDbbLjZA2MLDMgFwywEYYZA
you can probably drop master assasin for it but ye you lose a lot
people were dropping sudden demise for it before
This might just be my lower key level self talking but it doesn't feel like there's remotely as many annoying casts this season where IW would be as useful?
but it got buffed to 15%
SD too strong now to drop
Still nice, don't get me wrong. It's a rad talent. But there doesn't seem to be as many packs with shit tons of casts
If your tank can chain pull with mobs at 40% you’re living your best life
Dafuq happened to outlaw
swap to improved ambush on the left
Is it dead yet
nah. It’s still pumping
i guess you do gain a few ST talents running this bleed build at least
Bleed build is outsimming Sub in my current Sub-focused gear. We might be cooked, fellas
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
darkbrew vs deeper daggers which one sims higher?
DB by a mile should be
i've kinda stopped caring what stuff sims at, i'm more concerned with the actual dps you can get out of it in real world scenarios
but yeah sin already is outperforming sub in the hybrid build in keys
i'm excited to try out this bleed build
No doubt. Personally, I'm just gonna swap between Sub and Sin depending on the fight or dungeon. Bleed build is a lot of fun. Your execute damage goes crazy and watching trash die to Sudden Demise is pretty entertaining. Still doesn't have the "oomph" that you get from pressing a fully buffed SecTech + Cold Blood during burst tho, so I'm for sure still gonna play Sub just for how fun that can be.
Also Sin boss damage is awful either way and I run w a Boomkin and BM Hunter most of the time, so having Sub for extra boss damage helps a lot
i feel like out of cd rota does zero dmg ._.
!design
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".
That's just how it is man. Use the downtime to farm CDR and CC trash mobs
but sometimes i end up below the tank xD
sometimes it do be like that
ye
Working as intended
Just trust in your CDs. As long as you're managing them well and using them at good moments, you'll still do respectable overall damage.
it's an issue with cd classes like sub, blizz is afraid to make you too strong in cds because then you become giga overpowered on a lot of boss fights
never doubted that, just feel awkward to get called out in a pug cause "you dont do any dmg" and burst with 17k in the next one
dw, i still love playing sub, its fun as hell
doesnt matter, what are they gonna do? kick you mid key?
well they did
Probably the ret pal talking
yeah wtf
yeah ..
was this an actual key?
Ya I've had that issue before with the Add Affix. Tank called me out for not damaging it enough throuhgout the run even though I did more to it than the Fire Mage. He was like "well the fire mage has to commit burst to kill it so he gets a pass" BRO SO DO I
or a random timewalking/heroic
12 priory
fire mages are the hero class of wow
People just have no idea how sub works
no fucking shot they kick someone mid key in a 12
"cant time with that rogue"
thats acutally wild
i mean if youre doing tank damage in overall
thats a different story
i mean, dont get me wrong, im a fairly good player, i have 3.1k on my main and the rogue is close to 3k, i know my stuff and the dungeons ^^
Maybe not vs unholy or balance
just form your own group with a MW healer, warrior tank, balance druid and ele shaman

all of the buffs
first pack after the first boss, had nothing up, so i just ST once,spread rupture on the palas and BP
(i just did that minus the warrior tank)
The only buff that counts is shaman
Even though I had to raid without monk and warrior last season
Actual pain
I’m raiding without shaman this season, I’m considering respec to outlul or even reroll
Idk I think it’s nice my weakaura actually updates when I press it now and not 1 sec later
Firemagus looks promising xD
i did some keys today without skyfury
it legit feels horrible
feels like you're playing your rotation wrong
that's no go for sub tbh
Yes completely different flow
sin also benefits quite a lot from skyfury, less than sub though
but you don't feel it when you don't have skyfury like with sub
plays the exact same way
Not really sure what you mean tbh, sub has other issues with it with shadowcraft but that fix is specifically targeted at outlaw and not as a QoL
I’m sick of playing assa s1. Don’t want to play it this season unless blizzard will buff it few times
honestly a bit part of losing skyfury for me is the mental anguish that happens alongside it
i get that. i really dont want to be forced to play assi again
rotation is so sleeper
it consumes the stacks immediately as you press it now, so if you have a weakaura that tracks 4x unseen blade procs it updates immediately now. I know the intention was to fix outlaw - it just happens to affect sub rogue in a positive way as well
Casually nerfing outlaw by 5% without compensation 
at least when you play sin in keys you don't have to do mental juggling of cds like you do with sub
Yep, killing spree unplayable after 4th boss but thats ok I guess 
yeah but you have to not lose your mark
Ks on locketsprocket 
fuck i hate deathstalker
I think assa in keys is different class and it actually fun to play
ME TOO
I like bleed build,
red buttons = good
Green buttons = bad
surely they just add a button thats applys deathstalkers mark
so youre not reliant on a 2min cd
if you fuck it up
they could call it something like
marked for deathstalking
Based
One thing when you fuked up, another thing when it’s fkibg bugged out
Assa being an envenom bot is just weird, which is why the bleed build is fun
Also hitting 35m demises is amusing as hell
Mob goes bop
which is the bleed build?
the one that says bleed?
🙃
nvm
ignore me
wait
no kingsbane?
Ya I kinda hated Sin until I tried the bleed build
okay im a bit intrigued
Ya and thank god for that
how does it work though? still spam envenom or CT in big aoe
i feel i should be asking this in assi
🐒
100%
Ya they’re kinda weird over there
whispyr cant even pronouce my name sober
Does bleed build even more pepega in ST?
It’s better than hybrid in ST but it’s Sin so overall still pepega
What's best for m+ Sub or assa, or is it the same? If so what's more fun do you guys think?
@hazy breach are you pushing keys this tier?
Fun is very personal thing
Assa tends to be bigger numbers overall so many find that more fun. Sub can slam bosses like no other. Sub is not nearly as fun for me since we don’t have a shaman in our group.
Shaman in group and sub way more enjoyable.
Oh how come shaman is important, is it because of their buff
mmhm. We’re pretty reliant on it.
it’s playable without… but meh it’s a different vibe
The dopamine hits during Sub Burst go crazy. But it’s the absolute pinnacle of High Highs and Low Lows in wow specs.
Sin is more consistent, especially at higher key levels.
But if your team lacks boss damage, Sub is a good fit since it’s AoE is still respectable.
Never spam CT, just keep it up aoe, envenom for spender with caustic up
so still same as old assi, just bleed damage stronger now
and no kingsbane
ez thanks mate
sin vs bosses in m+ is soo boring
Yeah gameplay never changed,kingsbane still good to have in my opnion but bleed build rocks atm
i'm guessing you want to have 2 shiv charges per deathmark
and kind of use whenever between DMs
fuck kingsbane
kingsbane is kind of like DS mark, the cd
one less things i have to worry about
If you play bleed build yes, if hybrid you play 1 shiv at the last 7 seconds of kingsbane then shiv off cd
yeah i'm good on hybrid, it's what i'm playing right now 😉
cool cools sounds good
Probably
I finally took the plunge and got away from cheat death in favor of improved feint on both the class and hero talent tree.
It is so good...
you don't need the 10% feint from the hero tree
it's kinda overkill
the static 5% DR from fazed is better
it's always a very rare circumstance that the 40% DR you get from feint is not enough to live something
When the pulls are just right in Flood Gate. This was a Flood 14
nice
Sub still strong. I wont go Assa !
Does m+ parsing even matter?
big number fun
In fuu's sim sheet, it says 2x Dusk in embelishments, but in sim it is 2x dawn?
Practically no difference between embellishments anyway, run whatever you feel like
Theyre all so incredibly weak that it doesnt really matter
our sims r from dusk till dawn
Okay dumb question, do you always want 2 shadow dances when your CD's come up after your opener?
1 shadow dance and less than 40 on the other one
Ty
how much do we care about flawless form on 7+ targets?
since we swap to mostly SS and BP
do we get a catalyst next week ?
No it was this week
anyone know the bis race for each rogue spec currently?
just swap spec from the drop down for spec
thank you

!sheet also has race sims^^
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
but i can spoiler you, it will tell you to be a friendly orc
unless you want to change every patch just go dwarf
else orc might fall off with later tiers
unless blizz makes orc racials % based or something instead of flat values
human is usually also good later
i don't think there is rly a "clear winner" for long term
worse you can do is play undead like me
female undead has the coolest finisher animation though
so at least you look cool

Hello there !
I've just started the game this week and I was wondering ab something :x
It seems like my macro aren't working but I can't find why
Something something stealth bar
that s my sub orange name
I see you re a demise type of guy now also fuu 
next tier outlaw progress tier for sure

and no multiples buff to sin to make it the go to spec again 
every season > forced to play sub > forced to recraft for assa > play outlaw for the funnies
Void dagger legendary
I'd be surprised if the current iteration of outlaw could ever be a progress spec
At least at the highest level
It would have to be insanely overtuned
i mean
give me one tier when outlaw was the go to prog spec, and give me the year of it
outlaw whatever iteration cant be a prog spec

castle nathria, 2021

the only reasons u might have played outlaw is because assa was unplayable until 9.0.5, and sub was a joke after ptr hotfix
yet it was not thaaaaat bad, u just didnt bring anything and u were a melee
anyone like how the first tier theres no dk in rwf
they just
make a wowhead article about it
it s the first tier
where grips are absolutely useless
and u anyway stack boomie / mage / lock / priest depending on teh boss
it s been a while we havent seen 4 of the same classs in a raid
yet they played 5 monk 4 fire 3 sp
that s half the raid already

Go night elf for shadowmeld shadow strike 🤣🤣🤣
Most of vault
Except rasz
And even on rasz u could play either sub or outlaw and it was fine
that s actually true for vault yea
i think u could play other specs with minor disadvantage, but i remember sennarth / kurog specifically being very outlaw
Yep
Anyone know any multispec freakazoid rogues?
I play sub/assassin fight depending
TIL you can supercharge 7 cp before entering m+
Can someone answer me please :x
What macro
Did you add them to stealth bar
dunno, im assa in raid atm
how is mug boi going
It was said you would destroy the assa, not join them. Bring balance to world of warcraft, not cast it in darkness
unfortunately my guild knows how to read logs, and they see how much dmg assa does in p2
so
it is what it is
curses!
Logs were a mistake
Jesus fuck assassin and outlaw sub feels wayyy better
Assa so broken on mugzee
!weakaura
Wdym stealth bar ?
depends on what the macro is supposed to do
there's a bunch of different macros
but for rogues action bar 1 turns into a different bar when you are in stealth
thats your stealth bar
often times when someone says their macro isn't working its because they forgot to add it to their stealth bar and only added it to their regular action bar
Ah no
I tried multiple macros on normal bar
And there isn't any working
Even "/use [skillName]" in chat isn't working
its supposed to be /cast
Or well it is working for 1 skill if this skill is called without space
Both are working for me
are you putting the skill name in brackets? "[ ]"?
would be a lot easier if you just pasted the macro
so i'm not trying to guess out of thin air 
#showtooltip
/cast [@focus][] Ficelles du métier
Tried this one
does the no parry part of fazed still apply to the whole raid?
But well now it working, is the '[]' before skill name mandatory ?
Before it wasn't working so idk
looks fine?
Yeah for now, guess my error was that I put the english name while my game is in french
I might change the game's lang
i need your input. I have 4 catalysts with 0 set piece. If i catalyst all my tier piece, I can get approx 200k to 300k more dps according to sims.
Now im trying to hold it off just incase i get a myth track item from vault since all my current tier piece are hero track
i think most people just catalyze hero track at the beginning of the season
if you're solely dependant opon m+ vault for myth track pieces, i don't think there's any point waiting and holding your cata charges for that
you'll get more cata charges as the season goes on
i think at this point some people even catalyze champ track gear on alts n shit
just to get the extra ~5% dmg bump
Anyone holding off on using finnishers outside of dance to not lose tier set stacks, is it worth?
You don’t hold all of your cata charges until end of season until you have full myth track + terts/sockets?????
Ngmi
Its a 1 week old rogue and about to get to a raiding guild next week after reset. So my sources for myth track will be vault and raid
Not really worth
Currently at 655 ilvl
Unless you know there’s add spawns coming or a dmg amp coming
I would just cata the hero gear
Kinda hindering your performance if you don’t ngl
I use my charges on whatever ngl but I gotta get more used to the crest system
I’m hella stingy with crests when I prolly don’t need to be
!sod
Macro to prevent accidental uses of extra charges: #showtooltip Symbols of Death /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs
it depends on what you want tbh
Super noob question, but I haven't played rogue in ages. My current gear is setup for outlaw, but I have a heroic dagger. Can I use dagger/sword as sub, or is dagger/dagger much better?
in m+ if it lines up are you doing both your sectechs in your first dance window?
1 per dance/sod
with first dance it feels a little weird
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
so subs got dig bick again?

!sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
as long as you dont party with others
Why rogue so shit is so sad
Dk and boomie doing infinite damage, rogue does peanuts 😦
does nimble furry work on cauldron when both boss go to the middle?
Yeah
i just changed the string from dwarf to the orc thingy to see the racial difference. its almost 20k dps for me? or is it bugged as i manipulated the string?
Maghar is bis dps wise. You can also use the racial sim string if you want to make sure everything is correct. #tc-research
Yeah gotta collect interest on my cata changes and crests
Guy in our raid was sitting on 210 crests lmao
What is blud saving for
The upcoming trade war I guess idk
Gilded crests about to get tarrifs
Oddly enough they lose value the longer you hold them assuming you have pieces you can upgrade.
is there a way to fix 1hr tricks not working?
@hazy breach i really like this sin bleed build
If i'm using the 60s cd pvp trinket, do I use it on cooldown or line it up with the burst cooldowns ?
With cds

CT and sudden demise go brrr

Some people say demise is only padding, but theres clips like this where that shit is clearly not pad
isnt caustic way too low tho
Probably, but depends on the dungeon ig
yea but people only see the exec damage of sd
they dont realise it also buff every bleed

people and their understanding of rogue
I meant as a response to saying the execute is only pad
it definitely seems like a rupture on a low health mob will kill it faster than an envenom sometimes
sudden demise kind of nice
i think that s just a feeling
Yesnt
your prio target kinda disappears
If you spatter more than 1 extra target (ie if theres 3 targets)
Then an envenom does more than rupture
Otherwise a rupture does more
Internal sucks ass unfortunately
non caustic 
time to remove spatter from my no dm build
Hey guys is there a way to track when Unseen Blade is off cd?

idk how accurate that is but i know some people use it
gaming
well this was rookery
so all the pulls after 2nd boss my arms warrior blew up the small shitter adds
but i dunno, feels like spreading rupture very important with this build
here was a 13 priory
oh does this build actually want haste
Its fine
depends on dungeon yes
ya sometimes it varies, ty
it'll usually end up being very high because it's just passively up all the time
hey is there a point where it is better to take gloomblade ST? still pretty new to sub rogue. haven't mained it in a current tier since wod
when deathstalker is better yeah we play gloomblade
haven't given deathstalker a try. been enjoying trickster atm
can you cheese the mugzee goons without being void elf?
nop
Very little I think. House of cards is still 1m30s cd
Also we get most of our CDs from consuming CPs
Getting the bleeds out and ideally chain pulling packs with mobs at 35-40% health.
i'm digging having execute with this build too
Hi im new here and im kinda new to sub rogue im trying to learn its rotation but i feel like im doing something wrong i kinda have my opener set but im falling behind in damage and i dont know why.
I do know that sub has windows that i wont have cds to burst down. I dont if i should pool my energy more or if i should space out my cds either.
AND having blindside feels great
yeah it’s enjoyable overall.
i like it more than the hybrid build
If you can pull mobs into boss it’s nice boss dmg as well
yeah for sure
Rock boss in ML is fun
speaking of ML aoe soothe is actually really good for the trash with that miniboss and enrages everything
I find I’ should probably be more aggressive with vanish
i had that issue too playing double vanish where i was holding onto charges too much "just in case"
Cart boss in DFC is Ovi flashbacks. 
that boss is annoying
So much funnel
true that's a good funnel boss
What is the problem with deathstalker and goomblade build ?
Trickster better
this is crazy
there's more havoc DH than all 3 rogue specs combined
Damn
its all wannabes going back on it
trully vile spec
i've been playing it a lot

has been fun ngl, first time ever playing it in pve
from what im getting its easy mode
just some outlaw apm here and there
less buttons

it's definitely a bit easier
but it isn't as brain dead as it used to be/as much as ret type shit
team does racechange imply problems with a raidid like servertrans or similar?
and if i do, i just bind my racial to my shadowblades?
2m vs 1:30 etc etc. logs seem to do it
doesent affect raid lockouts
but it can break vantus
and yes just bind it to blades
first time.jpg 
Its like 2% if youre using pvp trinket 
Since you can actually leverage the -10% to use flag earlier
(but its still better to have hoc overall ofc)
Can rogue use cloak on mugzee soak to immune?
Ye
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
whats ur experience with tfd in M+?
feels incredible on bosses but I cant take advantage of it in most dungeons, even tried sitting in stealth far away from tank when he's chaining quickly to try and having it up for cds
but most of the time I don't have enough time to proc it
Well you always proc it after bosses and during RP
And thats more than enough to make it better than the alternative
the good thing about TFD is you can very easily get many activations in the dungeons that sub excels in
like workshop and ToP
given how people pull ML in higher keys you get a lot of activations in there too
High keys u run out of energy
While dance / feint
This is big problem what can i sacrife to get more energy ?
Talent wise ?
it's so incredibly annoying that playing sub is so heavily dependent on having a shammy in the group
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i mean
check it this way
if uhdk wasnt here
it would be the 20th season in a row where playing mage without a priest in the group would be shit
Some stuff interract too good with eachother, it is what it is
Is mage even that good, feel like its overhyped
well
Most keys ive seen on streams the DK and boomy does way more
i ve many things to say
Fire mage is good only in team AND in 17+ where u dont have to cringly hold combust
But also
Ye im talking about those high keys specifically
some dungeons, ws / top / rookery / dfc are SHIT for fire mage
that s probably why we see asuna / hopeful trying arcane / frost in many keys last days
fire mage isnt here for it s overall damage, it s doing less ST than boomie, but it has a good frontload of damage and have a reall great profile, as well as an overdone toolkit as always
Ye but if prio is that important more people would play assa
Since it has like 40% more prio than fire
i see mage like ret rn, but with 40 yard range, int buff, and more high key players
thing is
as fire rn
u dont really prio damage
the build u play really desincentivise prio, it s jsut flamestrike
u bring lust in a comp that is not interchangeable
like if u ask me
Vdh / disco / boomi / uhdk are mandatory, which let one spot, for a lust class
Ele fit well, mage is excellent, devoker is average
vdh is just vdh not needed but so good, disco is broken with oracle rn it s busted, boomie is the best spec in the game rn and beam is just op 45s lmao, uhdk u know already
u can think about swapping dk for rogue, that would make the most sens. So you ll have less aoe damage by a while, no ams no amz, and a bit less ST damage. Nah u cant swap the dk by a rogue
I mean its not like unholy does noticeably more ST than assa
Especially not on bosses with adds
nah, it s a bit more, just a bit, but in aoe i never seen an assa at 40m first cinderbrew pull
i ve never seen a dk at 5m, it s 1.30 / 45 / 30s cds
Idk i think people (as usual) are way overhyping the difference between the best specs and the others
as i already stated in here, that s what we get for asking easier rerolling, now in 20h of /played you have a character that can push. So the meta is super closed
even if it s the meta by a inch
back in SL when u needed 2 month before having an alt that can push, u just played best players on their spec and you were happy, meta existed but it was not fotm land
and where i agree with the overhype thing, is that since aug is gone, way way more classes are close to eachother, but 1 inch is 1 inch
streamers show their comp and route, people follow braindeadly
sl not fotm land just a lot of destro players and survival hunters that definitely mained the spec before that point
the main issue i'm having is you can't do stuff like other teams who are running vdh+boomy
that’s how the game is, people see the top players and then they don’t want anything but those classes
if you're not running those 2 specs in your team
u talking about 1 season incident, whch happened, but it was a 1 season incident
yea vdh + boomie is just mandatory for streamer keys
trying to do some of the bigger pulls without those 2 is suicide
or close to suicide
But u can still do without it, again my best example is squish / wox
playing gdrood war outlaw hunt mw
Its fine with a prot warrior too
they just cook their capped target route and do well
yeah squish always makes it work
but that s a team, not a pug
s1 was full of vdh /boomy/fmage rerolls too tho
it was just all the season incidents.....
Like for most pulls the aoe kick from prot warrior is the same as silence sigil
yea
sl S1
is not what u think it was
compare that to
is delusionnal
imo
specially knowing that mage always had a big playerbase, boomie had a lot of rerollers early in SL cause it was fucking fitting NF which was put ahead and strong, but well
SV was rather easy to reroll to at that point as well. I swear 2/3 of our guild had one to play.
and you already had a large hunter playerbase
sl S3 started to include some reroll easier rules, it was still bit of a pain, but easier than before
catchup mecanics, catalyst, better way to get loot in raid in pug
probably needed like 3 weeks for an average player to get it ready to big keys
knowing that it got really rally buffed and we started to know about the numbers of the spec in a patch 2 or 3 weeks after season release, can see how long it took for them to get them all sv ready
and then u had df S1

and then, well, guess when aug was released season 
Yea. Compared to what we had, rerolling didn’t feel awful. Compared to now it 100% was.
yea now
like i said
20h of /played on my mage and he got from lvl 70 to 80 665 ilvl

no boost no buy no nothing
I think it took 1 clear in heroic and 2 vaults to be doing more dmg than my rogue.

(and u were broke buying legendaries on AH)
God, the legendaries
I know rerolling is easier because we have some folks that would never even think about a second toon to raid on, and now are trying to gear it for mythic where their spec sucks on certain fights
What an almost good idea that then veered straight into horrible
nooo
and that s just MA, i had gsw, ttb, celerity, and other stuff
you had a problem. 
i was playing all 3 specs, i was doing raid m+ arena rbg

i had to
i had all covenant renown 80, pikaboo still didnt have done a single campaign quest
Gearing right now is so incredibly chill though. It ruled.
it was so funny, he started the SL campaing in S3 because he needed to for double elgendary x)
Haha
"Take everything in moderation, even World of Warcraft!"
you must have missed that loading screen
i did that in BFA
Hell yeah, rang 1 rogue
and since then i just play for mecanics idc about parses at all 
🥖
this is one of the worst season ever for me actually
blessed
because i had to reinstall the game, and i reinstalled it in french
haha
and i cba swapping it so i had to rewrite EVERY SINGLE MACRO I HAD
and as a pvp boi
i had 3 times every button in my bar, it was a tough work
@paper iron are you playing rogue right now or?
which spec you enjoying the most?
but i also have my main alt which is holypriest, can play all priest spec tho
and since rerolling is easier i ve lot of alts like mage evoker hunter, i m gonna do dk tomorrow
my heart would answer outlaw is where the real fun is at, but this tier all 3 specs are clearly peak gameplay. I used to be a sub hater and this season i really enjoy it. Assa in aoe is so good since DF changes. And outlaw i sadly lack the haste tax to play it rn, but besides KS it s for sure a banger
You can disable default combopoints with a weakaura btw
Ye just wanted to say because I personally got annoyed at it xd
i just hide it behind consumable like a bad boy
Yeh KS is my pain point for outlaw. Assa bleed is enjoyable in keys. Sub gameplay is very enjoyable. The output for effort doesn’t always feel good.
On my ui that is

oh yea, numbers are not good rn for rogues, truth is said
but i think we wont see a rogue m+ meta as long as we dont get overloaded with utility in our toolkit
shroud became useless
we did one night of Rik prog. All felt bad. Hahah
swapping as assa or even sub for far spawns just meh
Not when you have to babysit range adds
I swear range has more fning tunnel vision than melee
Hello guys, i will start soon +12 / +13 its a good idea to stay in sub ?
You can, assa bleed likely to do more overall
oh i'm not gramhehe haha
that guy is way better than me
He’s Gramhaha
for the range of key you gonna play since u ask this question here, every rogue spec will do very fine
i think he's in the amazing zoo guild
t r u e
my char's name is prophethood
that’s how he comes off as an expert in here
😉
Coattails of gramhehe on wcl
🐏 ?
we were talking about meta earlier
see how dogshit are people
they play uhdk
in TOP
when frost dk is just 20% better damage
uhdk is dogshit in ToP
but they just pepega
it's kinda funny

@paper iron the pulls we did with me as pirate adds never got close to being an issue. The other two specs it was shitshow.
At one point I decided I’d KS with the soak beam. That was fun to hear range panic.
sub is pretty good in ToP too
It was a laser light show and fucking amazing
damn
well we just hope they rebuff sub's burst to warrant the downtime
and we'll be chilling
they won’t
it’s gonna be DS buffs
truth be told
if they buff DS i'm quitting
Theyre gonna buff bp
NO
I can feel it in my bones
the threshold for nimble is gonna keep falling
Aoe and non existent hero tree
KS when you can endager yourself with mechanics ❌
KS when you can endanger the rest of party with mechanics ✅
If the buff is large enough (like 25-35%) we just stop using other finishers in aoe too
No sectech or rupture, just bp

if we even skip sectech
You know KS goes active too often when other melee notice you constantly bolting around
that's disgusting
it really means
real bad design
like
real real bad
like
as bad as me as sub on last tier
Our tree is real real bad
when i didnt want to bother to learn it
and parsed 0 the whole progress

that kind of bad
our dedicated dev time
Is real real bad
Figure out path of least resistance to bring numbers up
i wish
zero was our dev

he would make every bug abuse a feature
(as if it s not alrezady the case)
if zero was our dev
What 2 things suck that are obvious? DS and AOE (BP).
"hey guys next reset sectec+evis dmg +30%"
Rogue population on keys is bad esp since i last played bfa
rogue is the least played class in the game
well
u have evoker that is less played
but it s too recent and aug is dead
outlaw was a meta spec during S3 DF
but you have less rogue 3 specs players THAN ret alone
not totally true
depends what u call meta
u had dungeons like TOTT
true, maybe not absolute meta
where we triple outlaw
lol yeah double outlaw and 1 fury warr
and dht
for throne
yeah fire was busted that season too
to be ever a fotm
damn ok so there were less outlaws than i remember
yea u probably just remember casual / jpc / zero / zac / me
