there is no pace where sin was a better spec on queen

#

Other than "Me check WCL, me see sin more overall, sin better"

acoustic lodge
#

even with PI?

alpine wraith
#

you just went with another class like many guilds that did not have rogue

#

but having sub in queen was a +

#

vs not having it

#

you also had good dmg on 1st platform

#

when not everyone could move things without losing casts

#

thx to dust

vale pine
#

^

alpine wraith
#

now we are just worse ww

#

or even worse mm

whole lichen
#

dust pepehands

lucid jackal
#

Sub and MM are nothing comparable what are you talking about

alpine wraith
#

it was divisive and hard to balance around

lucid jackal
#

How are they related at all

alpine wraith
#

MM has burst and also can do burst cleave

lucid jackal
#

Okay hach do u want to look at the MM damage curve

#

This is the same thing to you?

#

Bursting for 6m on 2nd cd sets vs 3.7?

alpine wraith
#

sadly that is now how it goes in raid most of the time they are also kinda swingy sadly

#

so they burst 7m+ but keep that one for like 30secs then maybe the other ones they only get to like 4m if unlucky

#

and they only do around 300k more dps than sub on average well lets say 200k

#

wonder how arcane does now

vale pine
young mural
#

MM

vale pine
#

both hero talents

paper iron
#

did we mentionned arcane?

alpine wraith
#

arcane is very fun

young mural
#

hey fuu what tips would you give if i said i wanted to join liquid as main rogue

vale pine
#

i mean the bm/mm comparison is kinda weird

alpine wraith
#

im seeing they do blast lvls of dmg

vale pine
#

the entire argument, because its not that simple

haughty mural
#

arcane mages when they get buffed 2 times in a row:

alpine wraith
#

bm/mm is a bit weird right now from what i see

haughty mural
#

(they needed one for sure)

vale pine
#

better would be to use specs where specs work very similar and damage is a bigger contributing fator to play

alpine wraith
#

seems like mm does dmg at the right times

#

but also very rng

vale pine
#

else we could just compare feral to balance druids

lucid jackal
#

Oh so you are saying there is more to "what spec is most popular" and "which spec is actually the best"

vale pine
#

to make the argument

lucid jackal
#

Glad we have come to the same conclusion

alpine wraith
#

but i guess sub is more of a comparison to like arcane ww and uhdk

vale pine
#

i mean lets go down the rabbit hole then

alpine wraith
#

as for sub ever being popular it will be interesting

vale pine
#

why do people not play feral if its most of the time better

young mural
lucid jackal
#

actual 9/11 vault

alpine wraith
#

DAMN big jastor

vale pine
#

its a similar comparison

lucid jackal
#

Not exactly because ranged vs melee is a consideration

vale pine
#

because feral has a diffrent position

young mural
#

yo kezan is so ass

lucid jackal
#

Most ppl aren't defaulting to BM because "they can be a mechanics bitch" they default to BM because BM is the casual player spec

vale pine
#

and as such you will usually play balance to fill a ranged positon which is more dynamic

lucid jackal
#

Even on mythic, there are a lot of casuals

#

this raid has no mechanics for a BM to do, other than coins on oab

supple verge
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

i mean is feral the better raiding spec

#

as you mention it

#

because its not clear to me

#

why feral would be the better between feral/balance

#

so my point remains

alpine wraith
#

our hunter played MM on oab

vale pine
#

i think its hard to compare if they fill very diffrent niches

alpine wraith
#

was kinda better for the important parts

lucid jackal
#

Your point doesn't remain because even in amidrasil where feral was better it was still unpopular

alpine wraith
#

yea feral was blasting but it has same problem as surv

#

melee stinky

vale pine
#

^

#

my point hold very well

lucid jackal
#

Except in amidrasil being melee was an upside

#

U played like 9 melee that tier

alpine wraith
#

some guilds did take feral tho because heal and balance and guardian were even more stinky

#

we had 2 ferals

#

LUL

#

sometimes with class buffs you just take the lesser L

lucid jackal
alpine wraith
#

same with rogue you kinda play the one that does better for the atro

#

or just dont

drifting fable
lucid jackal
#

1500 ferals vs 3500 balance

drifting fable
#

what is wrong with ur vault

alpine wraith
#

he got some sloppy toppy

young mural
lucid jackal
#

Wait thats prepatch

#

Hold on

young mural
#

thats 3 times more btw

lucid jackal
#

33k balance

#

vs 8k feral

#

Feral was the better spec by far

young mural
#

wow

#

thats 4x almost

alpine wraith
#

look how many rets kekw

young mural
#

a bit more than 4x btw

vale pine
#

but to get back to my point

#

i think balance plays a central role in what is played and as such

#

its not that people avoid subtlety because its difficult

#

you had tiers subtlety was better and you saw spreads like this

lucid jackal
#

I'm unsure what your point even is

vale pine
fallow nimbus
#

smolderon says hi

vale pine
#

just highlights how important tuning is

haughty mural
#

Maybe too many sub incidents in the past - they are scared

#

*in prog

#

When sub is tuned good it is really really good in prog

lucid jackal
#

It was good last tier

#

Theres no grand conspiracy

haughty mural
#

Not a conspiracy thinking

#

Just an observation

potent relic
#

trying the cooldown manager, doesn't seem to track rupture for sub :/

@vale pine New dungeon build with Darkbrew? or just for sims?

gritty knot
#

Bruh ...the fk is this new patch. Every 2 minutes I am getting new info by Wowhead about bugs

#

Seems they fked up tons of shit

dire jolt
#

Lowkey kinda shocked the buff tracker doesn't track flagellation or symbols of death

hazy breach
#

What is it even tracking

dire jolt
#

I think for rogues it may only track subterfuge

haughty mural
#

Good feature

dire jolt
#

oh nope, Outlaw gets Adrenaline Rush and Blade Flurry

#

I'm guessing no one tested it on sub and said "hey, these are kinda important buff windows." 😄

upper narwhal
#

CD manager does not track several of our CDs? Dw base UI will replace addons by 2030

vale pine
dire jolt
#

So, for most classes the buff tracker seems to track important stuff, it's only rogue so far that tracks the most random thing in subterfuge only.

proven plover
#

So they dont waste their time

#

It makes perfect sense

dire jolt
#

Yeah, so far only rogue feels like it's missing everything.

#

Like Arcane Mage gets a freaking talent buff tracked

coarse hound
worn ivy
#

i hate every single blizz employee

#

for not taking any action about subtlety

#

fucking losers

haughty mural
#

Huh

#

That’s a bit drastic

dire jolt
#

Subs fun I thought?

lucid jackal
#

It is

#

It's just undertuned atm

haughty mural
candid raven
#

Idk why they even bother with features like this cd manager. At some point they just gotta admit that their UI is trash and give up.

lucid jackal
#

?

candid raven
#

Rather spend time fixing those bugs that spread out, whenever they patch something

shy ermine
#

It will get better

dire jolt
#

I think the CD manager has good parts, the buff trackers are nice, but they relied way too much on players telling them what to track

lucid jackal
#

I mean edit mode has been great

#

I moved off all the addons in DF

dire jolt
#

Oh I love the DF UI so much

lucid jackal
#

"Why bother the UI is just so shit" ICANT

candid raven
#

But this half baked stuff like the cd manager just makes no sense. Half of the cds I wanna track seem to be untrackable anyway, so I still need to get weakauras for it regardless

shy ermine
#

Can use weakauras until it gets better then

#

Better that than suggesting they give up because it’s not perfect on release

candid raven
#

It's just that the baseline will never measure up anyway, so might aswell call it quits since everything can be done with addons and weakauras. It seems like they try to fix a problem that doesn't exist rather than fixing those that do.

lucid jackal
#

Edit mode also will never measure up to addons that do the asme

#

That's not their point tho

paper iron
#

i swear df edit mode is a big W

#

bliizard have big L's but also big W's

north schooner
#

had they followed that logic we'd still have classic ui

bleak night
#

df edit mode is goated

#

i use one addon to let me hide bars unless i hover over them and thats it

candid raven
north schooner
#

if everyone replaced everything they wouldn't waste resources on it

#

having a good baseline UI is a good feature

#

even if it doesn't affect everyone

alpine wraith
#

it also helps player retention for sure

#

we want more people playing the game

north schooner
#

accessibility features affect just a few people as well, yet it's important to have them

candid raven
#

It just feels so unsatisfying that they dedicate their resources towards features that are basically in the game in the form of addons instead of fixing existing issues.

bleak night
#

Having to rely on addons for things that should be in the base game is an existing issue

candid raven
#

But it's not fixed by implementing this feature either

bleak night
#

It’s a start

#

If something mitigates an issue but doesn’t 100% solve it that doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing

candid raven
#

That may be, I still think the priorities are wrong.

bleak night
#

This is just big “ i don’t use it so it’s a waste of time” energy

candid raven
#

So for me it's more of a "You are fixing a non-existant problem so it's a waste of time"

strange chasm
#

Anyone see the rep bug?

lucid jackal
strange chasm
#

Did they patch

lucid jackal
#

not yet it seems

bleak night
north schooner
#

it's also easier for them to get feedback on it by releasing it first even if it's half-baked

candid raven
bleak night
#

“It’s not a problem for me so it’s a waste of time”

#

But you do you

#

I go play oblivion

candid raven
#

Alright, does the cd manager track your cds automatically or do you still have to look it up and configure it?

#

Coz if it needs to run you through a tutorial anyway, might aswell rewrite the tutorial for addons.

lucid jackal
#

What are u talking about

candid raven
#

What is the cd tracker supposed to fix. Bel says it won't fix anything for me, suggesting it fixes a problem for somebody else. I'm asking what that problem is.

north schooner
#

it's supposed to provide a decent default alternative to hundreds of WAs which may or may not be written horribly

dire jolt
#

People who want something that tracks certain important buffs without having to use Addons

#

Yeah it's not working for rogues yet, but on some other specs it tracks very useful things

#

without seeing every short term buff

#

It's just a matter of they likely didn't get any rogue feedback, they asked what should be tracked.

#

The CD tracker is of more questionable utility to me.

#

Buffs though, a+ when they finally add more useful ones than subterfuge on rogue

candid raven
dire jolt
#

they're third party for a reason

candid raven
#

What reason?

lucid jackal
#

addons cause performance issues

candid raven
#

Argueably I've had more performance issues from Blizzard than from addons

lucid jackal
#

?

candid raven
#

What was the worm boss in last tier called again? With the eggs

lucid jackal
#

ovinax

candid raven
#

I had performance issues like crazy on that boss. Ppl kept telling me it was addons. I played Vanilla UI on it, the issues persisted. In the end I played with ElvUI again, coz it seemed smoother.

lucid jackal
#

okay

candid raven
#

Or the weird ressource tracking thing they introduced last patch. Something that you have to turn off with a weakaura to improve performance.

#

Because disabling it somehow doesn't stick.

lucid jackal
#

idk what you want me to respond with

bleak night
#

People kept telling you it was addons because for the majority of people it was addons

#

Nothing you are saying is disproving any point

#

Baseline ui should be good

#

Investing in baseline ui is a good thing

#

Will it replace weakauras? No, because it’s not designed to entirely replace them

#

That doesn’t mean it’s not worth doing

candid raven
#

I just don't understand their priorities.

lucid jackal
#

Their priority is to make the base UI better

candid raven
#

But why isn't their priority on testing stuff higher, so they avoid bugs or fix the ones that are in the game?

north schooner
#

you can always apply to blizzard and improve their process

lucid jackal
#

Just fix bugs

#

Why didn't they think of that

candid raven
candid raven
glacial orbit
#

that's all

#

so blizz doesn't care

honest brook
#

sorry between your discussion anyone know someone sub skilled playing sub in m+ this season youtube?

exotic kelp
#

Specifically Mythic plus

So when doing cooldowns on sub, I run into an issue, when my second sec tec is ready, to send with cold blood, the first shadow dance's remaining duration has like 1 second to go.

Is that normal?
Do I send the sectech cold blood and just reapply sdance when its good which I think lands between first and second hit
Or is it just a rotational error that needs fixing earlier on

candid raven
#

Every new patch I just see a wave of new bugs that seem obvious or happened before. Things that could've been prevented if properly tested or listened to feedback. I just get the feeling that their quality control is going down the drain and instead we get stuff like a cd manager...

exotic kelp
#

Ye

#

Do i just drop it?

candid raven
#

In Raid you don't play First Dance, but in M+ it makes sense. However in M+ I just yolo everything and don't really care, so I can't tell you. Need more qualified personell for that

exotic kelp
#

Oh fwiw im talking mythic plus

oh, I totally didn't see the buff bar originally, tracking Shadow Techniques is neat.

hybrid prism

so with the junkmaestro's mega magnet, how often do you use it? do you wait until 30 stacks to cast it?

sharp lake
#

Not sure if anyone was like me, but after this update the personal resource display isn't showing durations for shadow dance and symbols of death. Is there any way to turn this functionality back on or am I just screwed for a little while?

Oof and I was so excited for the better flawless form / secret technique tracking

dire jolt
#

flawless form is on the cd manager

sharp lake
#

yeah that's what I mean it's a good change, I just really don't like tracking SD / Symbols on the new CD manager

dire jolt
#

you can hide the parts you don't want to use.

#

I am confused why the hell eviscerate is on the "essential cooldowns" bar for example.

it's a great first step but hmm

nah

young mural

a few auras had double progress text

i just updated elvui and it fixed it for me

if you use elvui try updating

i'm not using elvui atm

must be something else

bruh can foreverguy explain i cant type

wide kernel
#

Let's say I can just use symbols without dance just fine. What are the other use cases where it's bad to use both at the same time

young mural
#

when going into 2nd shadow dance during your cooldown sequence

#

you generally dont want to symbols with dance

#

you dance without symbols

#

and delay the symbols a bit because secret technique is in cooldown

#

i explained it badly

wide kernel
#

You're basically trying to supercharge sectec

young mural
#

yhea

#

exactly

wide kernel
#

Isn't that a really marginal dps or is it worth it

young mural
#

worth it

#

sectech is your biggest/2nd biggest damage

#

if you start making compromises to its damage youll probably find yourself doing less than ideal dmg

#

and those extra CPs for sec tech are very important

is jastor diamond a dps loss for sub? its simming at -17,000 compared to circes circlet

fallow nimbus
#

You use both

wide kernel
#

its simming 8k worse than my myth track ring that's 675

fallow nimbus
#

It's mythic jastor + another 678 ring that beats circle

alpine wraith
#

jastor is a raid dps increase

#

more than a personal one

wide kernel
#

its like 800 mastery

#

sub is already at the point with most builds where mastery < vers/crit

alpine wraith
#

not really

#

i have 25k mastery

#

and it is still fine

#

as long as you have circe and the right gems

wide kernel
#

22,664 according to stat weights vers/crit is simming better

alpine wraith
#

ignore stat weights

fallow nimbus
#

22202 mastery here feelskek

wide kernel
#

i have the wowheads gems

alpine wraith
#

just do top gears

#

usually you will still want mastery gear anyway

wide kernel
#

i did, and jastor simmed worse

#

is this with the ritual brand ring only that it sims better or something?

alpine wraith
#

ye but the raid or party dps increase is worth

#

trust

wide kernel
#

this would be for m+

alpine wraith
#

you dont really take circe off for m+

#

mastery too good

fallow nimbus
#

You can spend hours simming gems, enchants and such. With every sim I got a different result. Then i just said fuck it and went for 20% crit (25% with pacemaker proc) and rest mast/vers for the agi gem

#

Got 3 colors for the agi gem, 20% crit and a lot of mastery/vers

#

I wish we could sim 3 colors in topgear instead of mandatory 4

alpine wraith
#

you can do it on advanced

#

just make gearsets

#

it is a bit of a pita tho

#

wish simpermut still worked

#

maybe someone one day will remake it

fallow nimbus
#

I just wing it. My other method is simming just without the 4 colors, taking the top sim and replacing 2 gems kekw

Don’t forget you green gem

alpine wraith
#

gems are less impactful now that we have way more total stats

#

they are like 0.1 to 0.2 now

#

0.15 crit dmg kinda sameish

haughty mural

I know

#

Just memeing

you guys also have 2 countdowns on your weakauras with the new patch?

Yep

#

Had to disable OmniCC cooldown text for now

ye that helped, ty!

Blue gems then epic gems pepehands

alpine wraith
#

it would take time to make extra gems

cant have that wastage of big money

They clearly wanted enchants/embellishments/gems to have a smaller impact for this expansion

Is there a specific window when to send the stix magnet trinket like there is on Assa or just send it whenever?

well we dont have the bug so, id say whenever

But no you just send it whenever

#

why do people take the first dance instead of weapon master in m+? i'm never out of combat more than 2sec in most keys, am i missing something?

lilac stag
#

WM is absolutely useless

#

you are likely out of combat before bosses

#

and you can sit back while tank gathers

#

You’re choosing to not be out of combat

#

and TFD is extremely good when you learn to play with it and its bugs

real panther
#

ok ok

#

i'll try

hazy breach
#

For a pure ST fight the fight needs to be around 4-5 minutes for wm to start being better than tfd (ie +4 extra seconds in the opener), and since WM does practically nothing on aoe (the extra procs does not cleave with nimble) it takes roughly a 16 minute sim for WM to start catching up to tfd

#

And like scath says, you are out of combat enough to proc it a handful of times each dungeon, even if you chain as much as possible theres almost always downtime after bosses or during RP

worn ivy
#

Any new noticible tirnket for is ?

final holly
#

not to mention my wallet; blacksmithing crafts are expensive

worn ivy

Into crit versa

real panther
#

kekw

hazy breach
#

?

alpine wraith
#

use vanish for tfd it is worth

hazy breach
#

Did you just respond without reading

crystal bone
#

u still want your CB sectec to happen in 2nd dance right?

#

with TFD talented

#

dungeon slice must not sim TFD properly, it shows its nearly even with WM

hazy breach
#

Ye it doesnt get any TFD resets

#

Its only the initial +4s

crystal bone
#

ahh

#

how much of a gain do u think TFD is if u were to ballpark it?

hazy breach
#

It should be getting ~6 more tfd procs on average

hazy breach
#

WM is a complete dogshit talent

crystal bone
#

ive been using WM this whole time fml

vale pine
#

the reason we go tfd is that competing talents are weak

crystal bone
#

every boss in raid is WM though right?

#

even if the fight is 2 min

hazy breach
#

No

#

if the fight is short tfd

vale pine
#

in heroic can use tfd

hazy breach
#

Doesnt matter that much though

crystal bone
#

ye ok

vale pine
#

mythic idk if you get the kill timer down significant enough

crystal bone
#

if only u could vanish and wait 6s for every flag window

vale pine
#

haha

hazy breach
#

It should just proc on restealth instead of the janky 6s

crystal bone
#

damn

#

vanish would be massive cd then

hazy breach
#

Still weaker than the other specs

#

But mostly the timer is just completely bugged and feels awful

#

You leave combat, enter stealth

#

Timer starts 5 seconds later

alpine wraith
#

then you enter combat

#

and it resets again to 6 secs

#

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

crystal bone
hazy breach
#

Sim prefers to use it when its ready

slate marlin
#

Timer about to pop but your tank pulls boss and timer resets 😦

hazy breach
#

But if youre not fast with the second dancing you could sometimes end up with the sectechs outside dance, which would be really bad

crystal bone
#

hmmm ok

is sub in the bin?

bleak wind
#

so is the removal of the buffs on the personal resource display a feature or a bug

molten citrus
#

i'm surprised to see so many were using the resource display ngl

bleak wind
#

Im surprised with every patch they do they manage to break the game in so many ways

#

like at this point you would think they have tests that would detect it

lilac stag
#

jr devs not understanding old spaghetti code or having the time to test it. DOGE developing wow these days.

keen dome
molten citrus
#

even the devs thought the display was a dead setting 💀

lilac stag
#

I mean. It didn’t on launch

#

NA got that part sorted

#

Here’s 3x of the same cloak in your vault.

slate marlin
#

Well, that solved people posting their screenshots instead of simming

#

Cant doubt when theres no choice

bleak wind
#

I am not a fan of the weakaura abilities that most people use, I've been using the personal resource display for a long time (with some extra weakauras that I find useful)

#

but they've bricked it now and I can't tell if its intended or not

keen dome
#

I love it as an anchor point

bleak wind
#

same

keen dome
#

Very comfy

bleak wind
#

oh mine is a bit different but ye, I have some bleed tracking WA and stuff like that to the side of it

keen dome
#

Nice

#

I love how it scales on zoom, but remains static. And also fades out when you drop combat

#

The PRD is honestly a great element of wow that if they let you customize fully, would be very strong

bleak wind
#

yea, I just hope its a bug as a result of the cooldown manager and it gets fixed soon

paper iron
#

give funnel back to sub now

bleak wind

otherwise gonna have to start anchoring WAs to it

#

Doesn't the profiling thing exist so that the Devs can optimize the game

#

Or am I misunderstanding it's purpose

sly shore
#

no it's so addon developers can optimise their addons

#

by reducing cpu usage

#

or so blizzard can push blame to addon developers

#

both probably correct

slate marlin
#

As long as it eats my fps, i just want to be able to disable it

sly shore
#

it very likely doesn't

#

and if it does you're on a cpu from 2012

molten citrus
#

it messes with different people's set ups differently

paper iron
molten citrus
#

but even on a 9800x3d it can drop your frames a bit

sly shore
#

reading the data is what takes the resources

#

and presenting it

#

in a readable format

#

rather than it being on

#

I have zero fps difference on or off CAUGHT

slate marlin
#

Ive had 0 disconnects or performance issues since disabling it

#

i got a low end pc tho

sly shore
#

if ur pc is that bad

#

probably a bad idea to blame blizzard when you're struggling already

#

if that minor performance hit is problematic for you

slate marlin
#

No, not rly

#

if i have around 50 fps in m+

#

and aroynd 30-40 on raid which im used to

sly shore
#

that's insanely terrible in m+ especially

slate marlin
#

With profiling on i get way more spikes and whitescreen issues

#

have had 0 since disabling it

hazy breach
#

Addons really take up way too much nowadays, so blizzard ends up getting shit for stuff lagging, when its usually plater/liquidpack/dbm thats causing the lags

#

Like the difference between playing with baseline UI and what most people use on something like ovinax was insane

sly shore
#

and there is so many different setups it's very difficult to accurately diagnose as well

tulip gorge
#

next season I will be moving to an UI with less addons for sure

sly shore
#

but 100% if your PC is THAT bad then kinda need to look at that rather than blame the game

lilac stag
hazy breach
#

Then its just filled with absolute junk

#

Thats a pain to clean out because if you ever have to update it will all be back

lilac stag
sly shore
#

if u use auraupdater ofc

slate marlin
sly shore
#

because your pc is so shit

hazy breach
#

Well even having then not loaded still makes a difference compared to not having them

sly shore
#

profiling pushed it to suicide

slate marlin
#

then you can bet i am going to blame profiling

lilac stag
#

remember how no one wanted touch the AH rework because of how much shit fucked with that had nothing to do with the AH? omegalul

sly shore
#

was broken for like 2 weeks start of xpac

#

😏

lilac stag
#

it was ignore for expansions

paper iron
lilac stag
#

Becuse of it

paper iron
#

i blame that on people not blizzard

lilac stag
#

who do you blame without plater?

sly shore
#

people will always blame an external source either way

#

there is no winning

lilac stag
#

let’s not be white knighting blizzards code. stealth is amazing. Sectech is amazing. omegalul

ember gate
#

The ammount of times I vanish and it doesn't let me Shadow Strike..

sly shore
#

stealth bar poggers

lilac stag
#

It could be that, and I know this is shocking, both can be causing issues.

leaden prairie
#

Easy to blame plater when in game plates are litteraly unusable

#
  • if it was any other game it wouldn't be as laggy it's just wow being shit
hazy breach
#

Well im blaming them for making the things plater are using laggy

sly shore
#

a good example is skyrim mods and load order etc

#

apply how fucked that is

#

to addons in wow

#

and you begin to see just why shit lags

paper iron
#

cant be worse than playing giga modded minecraft

#

taking up 80go ram

hazy breach
#

Atleast the new cooldown stuff is fine

#

Doesnt have everything and some questionmarks, but its way better than nothing before

#

Id imagine the addon profiling thing is for blizzard to get data on whats causing people to lag

#

Its obviously useful for addon devs too, but there was already plenty of options to profile your addons if you knew hpw to

paper iron
#

they just mining cryptos on our pc fr fr fr

hazy breach
leaden prairie

and you cant add/remove spells from it

#

Theres an addon that lets you easily do those things garf_sit

leaden prairie
#

ye of course

#

#

It's such a good idea. But it's missing a lot of the modularity it needs.

Which is also like

It's like they didn't finish it on purpose or smth

Maybe it was one guys pet project and he didn't have time to finish it

You can tell they’re perfectly fine with addons fixing their lazy design

keen dome
#

I do think the UI overhal in DF was really good as a starting point

#

It's just.. do more?? more??? please?

sly shore
#

I'd hope after midnight is done

#

they take a good hard look at this shit

#

cos it's a mounting issue

#

that people are by 9800x3d just to run a 20yr old game

keen dome
#

The new player experience, the UI / UX. The bloat of information that isn't easily accessible or trackible in-game.

#

And yeah, the continual technical issues and FPS drops and shit

#

Fucking 30-man raid groups on high settings

#

impossible

sly shore
#

wow's performance is very very much a sinking ship atm due to age

keen dome
#

"Good news we've added DLSS"

leaden prairie
#

and the devs that are making the game couldnt do that ?

#

when it was like the most asked thing during ptr cycle

keen dome
#

It's weird and I dunno, I wish they'd talk about it?

leaden prairie
#

when they asked for feedback

#

so confusing ot me

#

how is a random in his room doing a better job thna you on your own game

keen dome
#

Less management constraints, resource priority, code reviews and whatever else middle management bullshit exists.

serene notch
#

its a gift and a curse, exposing the UI for external mods for a game like this is such an artifact of the era it was launched. I bet if blizzard made wow 2 they would lock it down like a more modern game.

leaden prairie
#

more work for them tho

serene notch
#

its too intertwined now i dont think they have a choice, other then to do what they are which is slowly pay down this technical debt by adding features like CD tracker , or the patch that let us move around ui components

am i correct in understanding that symbols provides 2 supercharged points and finishers will only consume 1 supercharged point?

swift tinsel
#

correct

#

so you get two supercharged finishers per cast of symbols

wide kernel
#

so as long as sectec is within 2 finishers it doesn't matter, thats what the 9 second rule is about?

swift tinsel
#

outside of your first dance in flag, it doesn't matter if its first or second. you'll see people cast sod/dance when sectech has 10sec left on cd bc your evisc/coup will pull the cd of sectech and make it useable for 2nd supercharged cp

#

unless you have coup outside that first flag dance, then you always wanna coup first then sectech
