I assume we have a steady flow of people getting invested in the spec for 2 months then saying screw this.
“how do you people live like this?!?!” 
I run assa bleeder for the trash with garrrote. Swap to sub for the bosses. Never need to slow down for CDs.
can just play with a tank
I just changed my macro icon to something different from the sec tec icon and never had this issue again
Hidden tech
stop playing rogue. Issue solves itself. 
Just stick it on action bar 13
with every other macro
hi can t we do a macro like this? , symbols still go through :
/cast Shadow Blades
/cast !Shadow Dance
/cast !Symbols of Death
/cast Secret Technique
No
Okay, so I actually did some testing and figured out what's happening, and it's a weird niche bug.
I had her switch to assassination to try it out, we're currently questing through pandaland and she's on a character locked to 67 while I'm on a lvl 39 evoker I started to level. I thought the change, especially without doing stealth things, would make the threat problem better.
Anyway, it didn't. We'd start a fight, she'd have aggro, she'd take a couple hits and as soon as I heal her I take all the threat. When I delt damage though, I didn't pull threat at all.
What's happening is that my healing scales to her much larger healthpool in chromie time, so when I would heal her my heals would tick for 45k vs my damage which was at only 1.8k per cast. This would mean that even with the .5x threat modifier, I'd pull threat with just my healing almost immediately.
This was all happening on top of the subtlety just droping threat when she played it as well.
Mayb cheeky buff this week ?,
Ohh is that why I seemed to be having the easiest time doing my tier 11 delves despite being very undergeared?
I was wondering why brann was always tanking the mobs
Shindig has an absolutely stellar video on YouTube if you aren't the reading type
fixed that for u
surely
whens the fuu article about how dumpster sub coming out
i actually need to make a macro like this
my sim as assa with subtlety gear
and my subtlety sim
i start believe the d/slice sim is dogshit
for M+
coz i do like 1mil more than subtlety every key
even on top / ws
assa does more how do i sim less than ? i need explanation
dslice dps results shouldnt be used as a "this is how much damage I will do in a key"
but only as a gearing option
dslice results also shouldnt be compared to different specs
what u saying does not make any sense to me
how do i know on paper which spec does more than
i just ran with a Instant Dollars officer tank in a pug queue and he missed percent LOL

it was a vault 10 ezpz run but it was funny
The article is already finished but wowhead needs to censor all the slurs fuu implenented and even developed 
Or they don't publish things only 10 guys will read 

!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
hey - is there an option in raidbot to check my gear in "new max ilevel" settings?
thanks!
Do you know is there a way to set kezan stacks on simulation? Let say I want to start a sim with 20 kezan stacks.
Augmentation Rogue when ?
not below Aug 
frost will be below aug next week
Every spec does more than sub, np
if you have a good run sure
I went through this a while back, basically you just can't use Sims to compare between specs, it's apples and oranges
If you're doing more damage on sin in real keys then trust that
do not need Rocketscience to figure out sub is ass
I tried and get smth like this with all upgraded gear
But I did smth wrong because my current sim = 2,480 not 2,411
But I think in average it will be ~ +170k dps
Try to do clearly after work from pc not smartphone
Is subtlety a spec that requires gear to feel good about DPS? Currently gearing an alt @ 620 ilvl and dps feels low. Doing the rotation from icy-vein
almost all specs require gear to feel good
also are you talking m+
or raid
Talking about m+. Played mage(frost and fire) before and their "dps floor" is a bit higher than with the same gear.
yeah
sub sorta requires
a bit of nuance when to press buttons and what not
because you do 0 damage outside of cds
so if tank pulls 3 mobs when you send all cds
you do no damage
I see, so it benefits from the "common" routes in high keys rather than in +2-+4 where its just random
yes and no and yes
I meant, pulls are random per run
in low keys everything dies too fast for it to matter
but in higher keys, assi is also just better than sub
sub just doesn’t output high enough or consistently enough if you’re not playing around it which No one does at that key level
sub is the definition of: high effort mediocre reward
All to be purple
you know
i wonder how parses would change
if it was % against every class/spec
instead of just your own spec
like what that would do to the game/parse mentality
Damn. Still feels good to play it since its the rogue spec that feels rogue the most. Is the subtlety set a game changer? For example for frost it does not change A LOT
the form chasing would go even harder I think
nothing really changes
end of the day play whats fun
if you enjoy sub
just play it
you dont play around it unless in m+ or to plan for some special things
like phase changes
or priority adds
but those are calculated decisions not for optimal dps
We are doing relatively the same dps we were doing w2 of the season. Get mh weapon, get 4 piece. Everything else minimal upgrades if coming from s1.
yeah
yea we are around 600 to 700k dps down from the big dogs
but sub feels good to play
If you’re new. Get PvP badge trinket
so who cares
about to get bigger
so just enjoy game
do delves they drop good gear
and next week you can also get more ilvl
And have the gap with other specs increase.
yea it will be fun
Thanks for the answers guys. Cheers
well now instead of 8m it will be 9 or a bit more
meanwhile some specs doing our burst but for 40 secs
brrrrr
Envenom gonna pop harder. 
big envenom
Sandbag Spec
If your team times a 14 with you they will be able to do a 15 with a real dps
@topaz agate noob
everyone here still playing this dogshit spec
i am
mental issues
yeah
it was supposed to be for me
yeah

its just undertuned, i am still playing it
sub 4 life
sub 4 lyfe
watching sub gradually go lower and lower whenever yoda makes a tier list
is chef's kiss
ehehe
sub started this season as #1
wait really?
now it's almost last place
yeah on most people's tier lists sub was the best dps
right when the season started
sub was REALLY good
and sub got no buffs and no scaling
haha yeah the only people who knew were in this channel
yeah the dooming was already happening then i remember
and everyone was right!
at the exact moment we got baseline buff + triple nerf
we knew it was joever
had a funny tier being benched
whole tier
except 1 boss
the one thing nobody knew was coming was blizz intentionally only ignoring sub on tuning
because it has to be intentional
yeah it's to save face
they cant nerf a class
to absolute oblivion
then suddenly buff it again
otherwise they'll just look foolish and stupid
sadge 😦
they did it with warrior tho
@tribal blade Ive realized something btw, DFC is a cheat death key
oooo tell me more
i know im just coping
The only thing that feint doesnt work on is the bleeds on first boss (and the random bolts obviously)
is elusiveness not good on candle king?
and arcane after everyone forgot
Well its +20% on evasion
does base feint work on the rot dmg?
Yes
doesnt the rot ramp quite a lot
OH SHIT
dam
ok that's so good to know
yeah i might just run cheat in dfc then
(if i can remember to run it)
What really
i'm dwarf as well so i can stoneform the bleeds on first boss
it's grim batol all over again
that is another option too, i'm just trying to avoid going horde
someone in the sin channel said it's not worth going nelf
you can't get enough extra stealths to proc IC
or it's not consistent enough
40% DR is crazy good on that boss
that is so funny
Pretty sure arakara was a cheat dungeon too, its pretty much only the stray bolts that dont get reduced by feint by itself
reduced without elusiveness
can't wait to talent cheat for dfc and then forget to swap back
and get absolutely destroyed in other keys
Ye
blizz and their weird coding
19s of these keys and I never knew
And then you have shit like cinderbrew where practically nothing gets reduced
and we are told about it 2 months after season ends
i guess hobgoblin charges
well some of us knew
Well no i did talk about it back then too 
but i tell people then kinda forget afterwards
can't think of anything else lol
didnt know about candle king th
ipa aoe right
ye ipa aoe, but not bee aoe, nor last boss aoe
can we talk about the criminally small hit box on bee boss
every time
it makes me want to throw my computer out my window
alright blizzard
You can say that about everything zac🤣
my favorite is watching zerocool do that boss and complain about the hitbox the entire time
Right
"bro blizzard has no idea what they are doing, look at this shit game, i cannot hit this fucking boss, this is most bullshit"
in russian accent
He is right tho
Its not russian accent tho
Acro was good for the game
its cig in mouth diff
Made the game not shit to play
Workshop is the only other one where cheat could be good
i liked clipping envenoms
With the 2x massdispell+cloak angle it could be fine
that pull is sub forte
And if you cheat there its still back up later on anyway
i want to DO damage
no sir have a dot that ticks for 3m
Why do you want aoe cc? You have too much utility already
that was the same expansion they introduced busted dragons
that let you cc mobs for 8 secs in aoe anyway
Maybe it comes back
But also kinda op
bruh i love this game
did my first +12 key in priory
beside 1 death from a dps the run was flawless. we pull last poss with 8 minutes left on the timer but the tank ninja pulled where everyone was still half health and hunter hit BL. we go to phase 2 and wiped shortly after because the healer couldnt keep up healing and adds were too much. the second hunter said "good job. ninja pull + BL on pull i'm out" and left the group
so those adds on either side of the boss will pull no matter what when you pull the boss 😉
so your tank did an oopsie and didn't clear them first
we actually do that intentionally on higher keys now to get some funnel for that boss
yeah no the adds on p2
the only oopsie he did was not letting everyone go full HP after that debuff mini boss right before last boss
does it actually mess anything up going into that boss with half hp
and BL on pull from the first hunter although idk if that matters TOO much
i suppose it matters more what your healer's mana was like
nope
also x2 hunters and 1 rogue adds should have been no issue
they can just kite and you can pop evasion
damn
that sucks 😦
people in low keys
are built different
u get to last boss with 17 minutes left but your healer asks for a stop for mana? better get out csnt time the key with those noobs
i helped a guildie of mine get a 13 top done today to help him get to 3k
he's a hunter
People def freak out over the strangest key issues
And then like, self-select out of pretty salvagable situations
as the key is starting he asks me about lust timings, and i realize i have no idea what it'll be like for a 13
so i just say "not sure, we'll see where we can use it, probably on cd"
and then he doesn't lust 1st boss
On a 13 top just send 1st, 3rd, last boss
🙂
Yeah, seems like Boss 1 is always a safe send
i think we use our first lust in the hallways going to xav
I THOUGHT SO TOO
but he thought not haha
U have to bl 1st boss tho
I've done multiple 10's where like, they won't lust boss 1 but'll lust the first gladiator add or something after boss 1
craziness
Lust timing on lower end is always hilarious and strange
Pug some of the cursed key ranges and you'll see the funniest stuff (So like, 8's or 5's)
that sounds horrible no ty
ever done the famed motherlode hold W strat
and get like 130% count?

I mean
Yes, it's hilarious

why would anyone care about count % on those keys
those tanks dont rly care about mob efficiency
Because they don't have perspective or understand the game. And their pinnacle content is probably a 7
They shouldnt either
Most people doing 5's or 8's don't have a clue what count is what
Some mobs are better to kill than ithers bc of hp/count
damn that sounds useful
hopogoblins are turbo inefficient
i think they give 1.7% 'count
this is the Way
@short radish The two ways of doing low keys
You either pull eveything
Or you skip and someone pulls everything
how is this possible
or try to emulate kira routes akd always fuck it up
what kind of psychopath did this
thats actually criminal lmao
it's insane
Do a +5 where the tank is trying to do an MDI route but doesn't have thrash on his bars.
Its the reason u skip as many of em as u can
And they used to spawn even more adds when they died
yeah that change was actually very impactful
Not only are they dangerous, have a lot of health and give no count
They also spawn in more mobs
a lot of tanks don't know the strat for where to put hobgoblins either
you can put them up against walls where there's los from barrels and shit
and then when they charge whoever gets the charge just los's
and they literally don't move
and melee keep uptime
everyone happy
the void diffusers in rookery also suck to fight, but atleast they give good count
same with lightspawn in priory
shit mob
good count
dunno why hobgoblin is so trash
i cant imagine what fighting the double diffuser is with no cloak
The War Within Season 2 MDI has begun and Wunderbar, with many former members of team Echo, returned with a dominating display in Group A. The team set 3 World Records during their first weekend. Dratnos breaks down their route in Cinderbrew Meadery.

here's the tech
it's a gamechanger
hobgoblin packs become WAY easier if you do this
my tank showed it to us and it's by far the best tech i've seen this season
Do a +11 with a liquid tank. 
i'm not sure why literally every tank when i was trying to time this on a 16 doesn't know that
esp as sin watching the hobgoblin just charge a mile away with your mark on it
is tragedy
when we did this for the first time we were all doing like at least 20-30% more dmg
in that pull
because noone had to move
at all
you mean you don’t like them running off at your hunter 40 yards away?
its even better when u skip corner pull
reeeeEEEEEEE
have you tried using shadowstep?
yeah then i got ran over
yeah i bricked a cinder to that lol
This was maybe 4-5 weeks ago. We were just looking for vault keys end of week. It was a bear with an 11 priory so they took our group of 4. I think we had 35 deaths and still timed it with 3 minutes to spare. 
Priest was having a panic attack 24/7
Haha, damn
i think trying to time 16 cinder was one of the hardest keys to get done i have ever tried in this game
i did so many of them
It was a lot of fun looking back at it. But it’s crazy to see just how built different they are.
Yeah
I've had the pleasure of doing key content with very good players on occasion and it's always startling. The skill gap is immense and I can only imagine how much bigger it is when you get a WR1 - 3 player in
We had a CE tank join one of my Heroic pugs a while back and seeing how they tanked certain bosses was so incredible, too. Just the difference in movement, precision and damage compared to a typical heroic pug level tank lmao
There’s def an art to tanking and positioning.
Stix with a really competent Mythic tank, haha
or just pissing off your melee
i would describe the skill bracket i'm in as good players who make a lot of mistakes
the barely making title cutoff crowd
I like to think of myself as Above Average and Competent, but then I play with really good players and I'm just pushing random keys lmao
i think so for sure!
you're definitely above average
It's also why I think the reverse is useful. Going into lower content (I.e., 5 / 8 keys. I use those as they're the unrewarding cutoff so it's the most cursed groups) can be really interesting and useful
My best OAB damage on Heroic is from me helping my very casual, not very good raid community try and kill him, 'cos I have to play so much better to support them.
(Also more add damage lmao)
I think Max said something similar on their podcast. Sometimes going into content that isn't as high level with worse players can be useful because you have to perform under far from optimal contexts
You can learn something at any level
What was the highest key ya'll pugged and timed as Sub in m+?
At every level you’re going to have this. RL trusts certain players not to fuck up important mechanics and then just prays when it’s a fight that involves everyone
Yeah, absolutely. I know. I'm just saying.
i did 14s as sub and then swapped to sin
i did do 1 15 workshop to test it out
That was the week bleed build
started if I’m remembering correctly.
YES
now i'm just bleed everywhere 😉
How do you remove those CPs? Below my char
think you need a weakaura to do that
might be personal resources or something in game settings
Bud you don't understand. Our defensives are so good that we have dodged any buffs for this long, it's like our cheat-death has no CD.
Untouchable.
Our defensives are really good, no meme there
We are really tanky yes
our cheat death has no cd because we're never brought to content
Search Personal resource display in the game options
Imagine this. Devs sit at a table and have small stuffed representations of each class. They grab a bunch of balls labeled buffs. They throw them at the stuffies.
We haven't gotten hit yet and it's surely do to our defensive ability to dodge everything agnostic of harm or benefit.
Do you rly think sub has a ball? lmao
here's a meme from 50 years ago
its still mostly relevant
Beautiful
Stuffies in this example
I’m just hoping for a few minor tweaks for the spec:
A change to TFD that allows it to activate upon returning to real stealth (via vanish)
Aura or set bonus buff would be nice but honestly, TFD change would probably make up for aura/set bonus buff
Make goremaws viable to be a giga priority target ability somehow
stupid question, i notice you get clear the witness if you shadowstrike different taget during shadow dance.
is it bad to change between target to keep reapplying deathstalker mark
Perhaps it could take cleave damage and auto funnel it back into your target
you shouldnt be playing deathstalker
I never got the fascination with goremaw, what’s the point? Just replace one button with another button? What problem does goremaw solve for you
just make TFD happen whenever you restealth in general and remove 6 seconds
Yup
Either way you shouldn't be prioritizing clear the witnesses over shadow strike damage anyway
on 5+ target wowhead guide say it's worth pressing
You get it whenever you reapply it with strike or darkest night
pissmaw
But deathstalker kinda weak rn
The ideal way to play the aoe rotation in dance for deathstalker is to strike > finish > storm > finish > strike a new target to proc ctw and prevent you from proccing darkest night > repeat
And if you happen to get a refund from shadowcraft so you do 2 finishers instead and proc darkest night
Cancelaura it

Absolute dogshit gameplay loop
ye, darkest night being pure ST kinda cringe. technically it's not, because it gives you clear the witness
Yes but a strike does the same thing
Deathstalker is just designed for assa and no effort went into making it usable or fun as sub
Id recommend just sticking with trickster since its numerically better and actually plays well
Or it has no cd because elusiveness is so good 
I mean feint is the strong button
But randomly the strong button doesnt work, and then elusiveness is fine as a replacement, but unless you specifically know that you need elusiveness to survive something (like the nokhud arrows for example last expansion) its usually better to go cheat
Since elusiveness only works when feint doesnt, its not 40+20
And when feint works and when it doesnt is fairly random, but most of the time it works, even on things you might not expect
Like i said earlier, in DFC its only the random fireballs and the bleed on the first boss that feint doesnt work on
also if anyone is curious you can still evasion soak mines in mug zee
yeah but you gotta face it correctly
did a funny in a wipe call yday and went flying three times
you will still get the magic dmg
so have cloak or cheat
In priory its the random smites/fireballs/potshots and the beam from lightspawns
The beam is usually dangerous enough to warrant it but still worth keeping in mind
hmm you can soak mine with evasion and not take damage?
ye
you take the magic part dmg
so cant soak 2 unless you have also cloak
at least i took a truckload of dmg
but didnt die on soaking 1
you also have to face it correctly
it just takes a long time to write that post because there are so many changes
I'm more concerned about the fact we had no class changes in 11.1.5 and we still have none on .7 ptr
yes its very weird
tere were reworks last .5
and theres been major chsnges in every patch
but this one
i hope they arent sacrificing class development for hekili and 1 bottom dps
how else will the ret paladins and bm hunters get their 99's?!
one would think good fantasy and tslent diversity appealed casuals
I mean
They are
theres like 5 weeks or so for .7
but god if the only thing coming this patch is thst
think how glorious it’ll be, eat your burrito and raid at the same time! Peak WoW efficiency. Nothing but purple parses on a full stomach from here on out.
purple lmfao
resubbing brb
more like green
peak content
You get a belt.
omg say less
belt and hekili
truly the most blessed timeline
will be so fun to play other games
I guarantee someone with 1 button will get a purple parse. Idk which spec, but someone will.
I'm gonna spend time outside getting rid of the sub-tuning depression weight gain
dont worry you too can enjoy
being last on dps
maybe invite another sub rogue so you can go neck and neck
like a disabled marathon
remember amirdrassil
if we had another max-level rogue in guild I'd try it lol
Ridicule everyone who does less dps than the sub rogue 
well, that
but hey at least we are almost at 9m secret tech
we may get to 10m
with coorruption etc
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
wish they would bring this back but for sectech
was nice yea
57
hey that's Fatal Intent damage!
sounds too strong; how about a 3% buff to perforated veins instead? 
When’s the sub article coming out so blizz can ignore it entirely like the rest of our spec 🙂
Just publish the DPS chart with Sub below aug and call it a day, imo
you can post many charts
why that one
better the one with subt below aug
we have many with sub below aug
idk if i wanna cry or laugh at this point
no need to post that one yea

next week we will get the 35k mastery power spike
gg go next
hey we're only bottom of the pile on 2 of the last 3 bosses
and on the last one we're 2nd from the bottom

its below aug now
check last week
not last 2 weeks
2 week ago aug was not buff
yea we already talked that one is for the time the buffs came out
Waiting for Sub one
would be funny if the sub one was just 3 lines
3rd line: burn after reading
"Play something else, we're deleting it soon"
We'll get a hodgepodge tank spec bc people liked it in Season of Discovery
Feels like that ))
I mean that infographic I linked from fuu is pretty telling
"we don't have a plan for sub so we're just gonna let it bottom out, cya later nerds"
likely devs were busy playing expedition 33 and poe2 and last epoch etc
understandable they dont look at sub
Sin bleed build is the new hotness so rogues are good for a while
no need to look at anything else with the class
let them play with the bleedy new toys
put up the dev blinders
coast until 11.2
come up with good tier set for sub on ptr then destroy it a week before patch
Augmentation > Sub
tier set was like someone actually though about the spec
then some middle manager came
and looked at the graph
and said
NO
@vale pine can you make the mid season review just a haiku?
lmao that honestly sounds right
i'm in
That’s too much work. Someone ctrl+c ctrl+v other class set and use randomizer to replace the ability. That was dev part. Then week 1 tuning team put tuning in place coz set can’t give 40%
to be fair, if they said "Yeah we didn't have time everyone was playing Expedtion 33"
I'd just go yeah that's fair it is the best game in recent memory
yea or if they were like wod demo locks
we'd rather you not play sub
we would be like ok sure
in bfa they did the sneak
sup, do yall unbind shadowstrike for sprocketmonger
what
you mean shadowstep
shadowstrike
ah it only does it on the pull and vanish
whatever then
forgot about that 
lol
did they release it?
guess it makes sense
tho i think last time, i got at least a message before
but i don't think its released yet or was it?
^ this one is in teh writeup
oh they havent released. even wowhead ignores sub existence
thats why i was confused
but i also posed it in discord
they have 36? specs to cover
so they won't release all at once
yea just funny how they choose their order
wait until all the pre patch work is done and sub is untouched before they release the sub article inc
blizz isn't planing more tuning to my knowlage
so its rly not like there is anything lost
is this sub final form then?
I'll be quite surprised if there is any for sub before 11.2 ptr
likely it of the season
if I had to guess
Yeah, I think it's likely
-get
-fucekd
-dumbass
-xd
woops that was 4
The season is, effectively, 'done' anyway I guess.
as of today here you go
Yeah probably
is it hard to do a 5% aura buff tho?
right, meta is all but solidified and there'll be the usual end of season title push for folks
but no tuning to upset that
The turbo boost will carry the rest of it since it's going to bring people up in power.
cant rly be cost intensive
i mean we just see their old balancing strategy come back
Yeah, and they're working on 11.1.7 so development is, I assume, fully on 11.2 and 11.2.5 so there's probably nothing much left.
C'est la via, is sad.
what you saw the last 3 seasons is basically how legion and bfa worked
i was turbo casual bsck then
already canceled my sub (rogue and subscription)
same
not coming back for a season buff just to get shit on again after week 1 of the new season
I had a guy in Dornogal come up to me today and ask for some Sub tips. Poor guy.
unless 11.2 is stellar idk if I'll play for a long while
even if it is stellar, they will bait and switch you for big nerfs and force you into sin again
visions are very low effort content sadly
don't know if i rly want to spam visions
they are essentially 1:1 what we had in bfa but a bit easier
i am not doing visions and the belt is stupid and doesnt solve any problem
I like the collectonism in WoW, achievement points, etc so it's just more of that fo rme.
I think the Belt is very stupid though. I don't think we need another circlet.
at least let me replace the stupid ring before i need the belt like ffs
Do you communicate with blizzard employees or what makes you think that this is the case? Just curious 😅
it never is dude
No not yet. I figure there is still time for edits. Haiku seems perfect.
they legit bait you every patch
one of the simc folks mentioned devs already working on the next patch
they get max to say some stupid shit like woah 11.1 best raid ever, we tried, super good, great patch
What if they give us playable ethereals in 11.2
well i hope they work on the hero talents that are trash
which makes me think they won't spend more time do tuning when their tuning patches are already out
then comes back on next blizz paycheck.
guys 11.2
prb best patch ever
then cycle repeats
I wish Blizz would pay me to say stuff in WoW is cool
This raid has been great for my level of CE.
Enjoying it tbh
glad youre having fun
It's really good at Heroic level, too
Didn’t they do a few small tuning tweaks late season 1?
it’s easy to shit on blizzard but the renown nerfs are at a good pace. The raid itself is enjoyable. Way better than season 1.
idk this is the point of the patch were i should be excited for .7, instead i am already bored of visions and cyrcle belt
I think the Renown system is overall a really good idea I hope becomes the norm (with refinement)
We get a pseudo-enchant damage proc this reset, which is interesting.
I don’t like having to go into lfr for renown when we’re extending
yeah at this point I'm pretty tired of chasing carrots
its funny i actually just had this argument with my friend
he said its good that the dinar thing or w/e they call it doesnt give u max gear
one sec
i agree
this was his argument
and it made me realize
people have been so braindwashed and gaslit by blizzard
that the game doesnt even need to give them anything good or meaningful
gatekeeping a 0.2% upgrade is a meaningful thing to them
actually gaslit the entire community
Honestly thats close to a revelation I had when I played a game that had a definitive ending
it’s a bad luck protection systems. They should have changed the currency name. Every MF went to give me free gear.
Blizz shouldn't have communicated it so poorly, but also who cares if someone doing LFR can get a Myth trinket
you get resolution and it feels good
It's a transient item
its like why make a fun game, why create a reason that makes people enjoy the game and want to come back, when we can gatekeep the addiction of getting 0.x% upgrade to forcing them do farm
guilds (litearlly in top 50) are dropping players every single patch because people cant take the farm anymore
and theyre slowly waking up to the carrot and stick
its insane how wow manages to mindfuck you like that
rogues of the world
did they ufuck the shroud bug that hunters keep bitching about
The actual system is a good one, if it was live with the launch of the season from the get-go. Really good idea. But the way they're doing it this season is hella stupid and a bad way to do it.
people aren’t waking up, it’s the cycle of growing up and having other responsibilities.
It's also done a really good job of demonstrating how little Blizz care about the heroic-tier playerbase who can't go onto Mythic lol
Yeah, or just shifting priorities in general
and coming to realize free time isn’t unlimited.
idk some people ive talked to have litearlly said the gear farm chase / weekly reclears / are basically why they quit
like consequence lost 2 people to that this tier
the problem with wow is, there is no similar universe and game to play instead
if you only care about HoF you could push for 3 weeks out of the season and be on vacation until next season
final fantasy is too diffrent to appeal to most wow players
not raelly, u gotta farm and get your characters ready
u gotta keep up shit for split
You don’t
u do
You could literally use all the catchup mechanics and have something ready in a week
if u get bis mythic gear from hc why go into mythic? 🤔
We had a BDK go from 70 to 665 in a week
To raid?
If you just want gear? Fucking buy it lmao
so don’t pull this you have to farm shit

when its 20 ilvls behind bis? so your splits next tier are fucked and slow? most guilds would rather make u keep up your characters, and your skillset.
look at liquid, they have 20 alts, why does each alt have to have a somewhat good amount of gear
good talk now someone tell me if shroud bug is fixed
665 is 20 ilvls behind?
idk what ilvl is now and idrc
So much of the system collapses because you can just use real money to buy a token to get a boost. There's no "Oh, only those deserving get the bet items"
Is your WW in liquid?
685 is on Tuesday so yes it’s 20
Someone in my guild bought a Ansurek CE boost. It's meaningless outside of you personally finding meaning in doing that content
Right now it’s not. Our avg ilvl is 671. Legit 6 ilvls behind in 1 week.
It’s uncapped tomorrow
So in 2 weeks you have a max ilvl toon
Can literally afk and come back at the end of the season
And it won’t fucking matter
unless you have to pay out for RWF in mounts
and do the farm, the thing they hate doing anyways LMFAO
I mean yeah I don’t understand why anyone would push keys rn. Just wait for the last week of the season and turbo run
Infinite power increase all the time
Who fucking cares what liquid and echo do. They’re going to degen no matter what
Your HoF guild doesn’t.
Farm the Mount. Quit
Resub.
crazy how theyre not donig that but okay
It’s hard to justify paying for this game when not raiding just puts you in a second class citizen tier. I’m not tryna deal with 20 degens on content that is easier than +18 dungeons but no one has brains or hands to clear this late in the season somehow
you think raiders would have great gear if they did no m+?
That’s by choice, not by need. Only thing that may actually matter next tier is Kezan and they can all buy it now.
parsings just been awful since season 1. this is a comment from a world 50 raider.
I guess you can quit and not farm
I’m still just mad that “bad luck protection” doesn’t extend to any useful m+ gear

I need a dagger for the gilded achievement
I already crafted one and I don’t want to craft another
well he aint wrong
it is fcking dumb
Why not? It’s free
its jarrod. idk people are kinda really pissed off
“Bad luck protection”
like we are doing the fast strat on Mug'zee
and we STILL HAVE TO HOLD DMG
like???????
just cuz gear every week and then every third week
3% dmg
-.-
Just go play lost ark. Come back two weeks prior to start of next season
not allowed unfortunately
“Allowed”
its a guild. there are rules, you cant say its okay stealthi u dont have to do this thing that all 20 people here hate doing
because youre a cute trash panda
thats not fair
either everyone does it
or no one
u cant just say fuck u guild im out, cya in 3 months
and everyone should do it if they’re miserable
then guild dies
yeh
Nah
k
farm is just a necessary evil
if it’s what push used to say. Guild does more outside of wow. Maybe that’s changed
send jastors if i have hoc hc and what lol... u guys sending pacemaker myth track? with dinars
likely going to get jastor
i learned today folks in belgium aren't allowed to play lost ark 💀
yeah
but it doesn't stop them from playing gacha games 
cs2 and lost ark? illegal.
genshin and LoL? legal.
😭
Is heroic actually higher than a crafted ring?
I haven’t fucked around with the extra ilvl sims yet
ah didn’t realize you were raiding
the fact they can play the fifa and madden games is funny
i was benched almost whole tier but didnt leave kinda
just was a rogue sucks unlucky
glad i went mage the start of this tier man 
subt sucks*
feel like the main character rn
now? the past 10 years lmfao
i played rogue those whole 10 years man
Ive lived in the shadows
not knowing what couldve been
When sub mid-expansion retrospective coming >
As soon as there’s a blue post with sub rogue changes.
So???? Never ?
lol
i explained it earlier, they will roll them out slowly
they'll probably do a few a day
They will throw us 1% dmg to all spells every week for the next 2 months
and we will be "happy"
lmao sure
i mean a 4% buff would be enoug
to be middle of the pack at least
if they want to be lazy
nah we get nothing
maybe a lil something with 11.2 but not as much as everyone else (again)
tasted true power on 11.1 ptr and it scared them
5% increased shadow strike damage at the cost of 3% eviscerate damage
don't give them ideasssss
Backstab buffed by 2%
oh, and another 10% buff to black powder, obviously
Lowest prio, not even mentioned in any meetings
since surv just got a pack leader rework that fits very well with their kit, I'd say they're more prio than sub
Removing the spec would be more attention for it than anything else
That was more a BM rework that SV got to enjoy
Hunters got a good amount of attention across the board. Basically what assa got and what outlaw and sub didn’t get.
It also helps being one of the most popular classes in the game.
Ya lets not compare class to specs
But I feel like sub is good for the first few months of patch
and then everything else gets buffed and sub is left in the dirt
sub was ok the first few weeks of patch
like first 3 weeks
its been below average since
and now its the worst spec in the game
fucking aug does more damage than us now... AUG
You had 2 upgrades this tier. Weapon and 4pc. Everything else minimal.
And you got those week 1 and two basically
Then you got ilvl scaling and then the only way ur dps goes up is by raid buffs on time gating
It was super fun watching my damage week over week increase but my position on meters drop from top 3, to top 5, to middle, to bottom third
My fav part is orange parsing to lose to green parses on other classes
When your spec discord is trying to rationalize how to get HoC when you have transmitter you know there are issues.
Oh 99 parse. Well enjoy 8th dps spot
I check my sub parses on HC 95/98
I spec ass. Do 90s 85s
300k more dps on ass than sub
NOICE
Ya and I refuse to go sin
Even have another sin rogue asking me when I’ll go sin so I can help him with his low parse issues
Like bro your green parses still more dps than my orange why care
What is there to help with? Hit envenom more
Idk I don’t play sin so I can’t help
Less
I looked at the rotation once and was like ya seems ez idk
as long as you keep bleeds up, and you do your 1-2 min burst windows correctly, there really isnt much you can do
the min max is making sure you dont use thistle tea outside of cds
WOWWWWWWW
SO HARD
couple more hours for them to release blue post
ass is so dumbed down now
That would be like .2 in the absolute best situations so you just macro to shiv and forget about it.
Sub is 56 apm. Assa 52 I believe.
Anyways what do I macro HOC to
I just did 2 binds for shiv, one with tea and one without
Shiv is during cds why would you not want tea then anyways
I’m still using lfr HoC bc rng hates me and I’m stuck
aaand the garbage bastard is dead, rejoice!!!!!!!!!
Because you want to overthink the spec. 
and shiv tea the second
Yeah i mean that isn’t gaining you any damage
yeah it does
its just minimal
since shiv gives you mastery
and you want that mastery to come at the end of kingsbane when its doing more dam
Kb is worth less than a darkest night envenom these days
That’s df stuff
Anyways what do I macro HOC to on sub
Blades
Kk ty
I bought HoC for 260k this week
and gonna replace it with mythic one in 2 days
260k gold? So you’re saying it dropped at least? I haven’t even seen it drop yet
No drop no vault
bruh if u killed Bandit M, u dont need any more gear 😄
I haven’t done that so either I have to buy the kill or get a heroic version with dinars which I honestly don’t even have a lot of interest in. Idk how that system works. I kind of checked out lately of the new stuff
@keen dome would you inv me to your mythic run with a note like that?
You have nothing better to buy
I mean I have to do something that involves playing the game that isn’t my 10s for the week or raid? Bc if so I’m out lol
Sub is expiring in like 2-3 weeks anyways
lmao yes that would absolutely make me laugh
😄
You can do 4 lfr bosses and get HoC on HC with dinars
and it worked. got an invite to a +10 within 2 or so minutes lmao
Hahaha
Are dinars just not out then? I did last 3 of hc and first 3 of mythic this week
It's not reset yet
next week
Tomorrow in the US, Weds for EU iirc
in 1/2 days (depends on region)
Oh okay so tomorrow I can afk 4 lfr bosses and then go buy hc hoc?
yea
You just need to afk 2 bosses if your really lazy
thats kinda... weird no?
