Double crafted simmed better for me so it's gonna depend on your gear.

alpine wraith
#

depends on gear

keen dome
#

high5 hacha

alpine wraith
#

so always sim and if it says 7k increase it is

steady dune
#

sweet, thank yall. Think ill just bang it out and get the extra ilvl increase too lol

keen dome
#

The stamina is nice

steady dune
#

2 rings and cloak is the only thing thats not myth track

sharp kernel
#

Is there a Dark brew build?

lilac stag
#

We have 1 build.

#

and a bunch of useless spec tree talents

vale pine
#

you can vary slightly but it makes little diffrence

sharp kernel
#

Just having a friend test the build with a vdh in group so most of the damage is being enhanced further by the magic debuff

tribal blade
#

oh i know that tank haha

#

he plays with zimbita

#

he really lives up to his name, i remember he once had a key listed with "it's resil, but my patience is not"

lilac stag
#

you’re giving up 2-3 other points for generally worse talents to get more rupture and nature dmg.

sharp kernel
#

He was tied basically between that and the normal build, his spike was a little higher in aoe and single but you just don't do shit outside cds lol

lilac stag
#

I’m going to assume he’s not playing the spec correctly in keys

tribal blade
#

i honestly find it kinda funny a lot of people keep trying to reinvent sub talents

lilac stag
#

and refer you back to sims for actual math

tribal blade
#

unfortunately we don't have a tree that supports that

lilac stag
#

Vs antidotal data from 2 keys

#

and a shit ton of testing by this discord

#

If they enjoy it, by all means play it

#

just play DS Darkbrew and go full tilt kekw

tribal blade
#

DS darkbrew discount knockoff sin

#

that's way worse

#

teehee

lilac stag
#

idk if you even give it that much praise

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

would be really cool if we were able to actually experiment with talent builds

#

instead of being full locked to 1 build varying by 1-2 points

lilac stag
#

sorry that’s the other spec

sharp kernel
#

He did like 3.6M overall in both keys, one was just a 13 and the other was a 15

lilac stag
#

and?

tribal blade
#

3.6 is quite low sorry to say

#

depending on the key actually

sharp kernel
#

Rookery

tribal blade
#

i haven't done a full run of rook as sub in a very long time, so honestly not sure what numbers sub does in there

#

but most specs are breaking 4 mil in rookery

lilac stag
#

I’d expect to see 4-4.3 from what gets posted in here

tribal blade
#

yeah the last time i did 18 rookery i did 4.26 mil, and that was with me afk 1 pull to go swap to sub for last boss

lilac stag
#

but I also don’t expect people to manage CDs in keys properly. garf_sit

tribal blade
#

i had to ask the group to link details because it gets reset if you hearth out haha

#

honestly kinda funny i kept up with the other 2 people in the key being afk an entire pull

lilac stag
#

on a side note, I think I’m outta jail 4 Tuesday

tribal blade
#

nice!

lilac stag
#

back to assa Pepegrin Cring

warm marlin
tribal blade
#

(it's pretty chill)

lilac stag
#

we’re so close. I can muster the strength and courage for one night of assa

keen dome
#

Hell yeah

#

I believe in you killing it

tribal blade
#

just make sure you hold DM for execute

lilac stag
#

well do the 3 min ish lust

tribal blade
#

iirc DM came up for me around the 43%ish point

lilac stag
#

It’ll either be sent KB at 4 or send em both depending leaving now health.

#

3 heal I’m assuming we’re at execute at 4 mins

#

Maybe not.

tribal blade
#

honestly no idea

#

i just stabby boss

warm marlin
#

doing 3min strat we're holding lust for 4mins

lilac stag
#

which to me makes sense

#

but idk. They’ll figure out the maths

tribal blade
#

we do the hold so we can break out 2 adds with finger guns

lilac stag
#

Of what they want to do

tribal blade
#

/dead

warm marlin
#

i swear

tribal blade
#

eh we don't really have much problems killing mugzee

lilac stag
#

I just said take me out of a jail in execute. Let me cleave and funnel.

tribal blade
#

so i don't think we needed to change anything

warm marlin
#

yea i mean its not gonna be the difference between killing or not

#

but leaving the adds up and pushing at 3mins is both less annoying and reduces raid damage in p2

#

compared to holding to break them out and killing them

tribal blade
#

true true

lilac stag
#

the dmg is what we need to avoid. Missing our disc on Tuesday

tribal blade
#

i think my RL doesn't want to change anything for reclears

tribal blade
#

bandit we did change

#

but bandit we also had a WAY harder time progging than mugzee

warm marlin
#

in the span of 3 weeks we went from the original 4 heal 5min push to the 4 heal 4min push to the 3 heal 3 min push

lilac stag
#

are your logs public?

#

Can you send me a link?

tribal blade
#

so next the 2 heal 2 min push

warm marlin
#

yea but i been playing sub reclears recently

tribal blade
#

and then 1 heal 1 min push

#

and then 0 heal 0 min push

lilac stag
#

I’ll go In jail 1 to RP warlock pet

lilac stag
#

Thanks

tribal blade
warm marlin
#

lol i mean im pretty sure i got double stunned during blades in the intermission

#

pig behaviour

tribal blade
#

having cheat on mugzee so good

#

i thoroughly enjoyed watching people get shot in the face by him spinning while stunned

hazy breach
#

Btw the extra 5% buff is still active on ptr so when 1.7 launches its probably gonna be active for a bit until they fix it

warm marlin
#

extra buffed logs sitting all of 11.7 omegalul

hazy breach
#

@tribal blade After some rough sessions we finally got some score last night Prayge Only need ToP now for resi 19

#

We gamin

lilac stag
#

emotional damage

hollow spear
#

Inb4 they use the PTR damage to adjust balance

hazy breach
#

Nah they just forgor

lilac stag
#

I’m also going to need you to delete the message about ptr

hazy breach
#

Version controll aint their strong suite lately

hollow spear
#

US will pump out parses

hazy breach
#

Also the belt is still kinda stinky

#

So its gonna get buffed

hollow spear
#

Then they'll fix it and EU can suck a phat one 😄

hazy breach
#

And in a completely shocking turn of events the best procs on the belt are the mastery and vers ones

#

Who wouldve thought

lilac stag
#

damn. I so was hoping for haste

#

change things up a bit

tribal blade
#

it has been a shitty few days for keys for me

#

came very close to timing 18 workshop but the healer died at the end of last boss

#

and then only bres dies immediately after

#

then mage dies trying to bres

#

then i die trying to bres

#

🙂

hazy breach
#

Oof

tribal blade
#

that was the run too, we got to P2 of last boss with like 4:52 on the timer

#

0 deaths on 3rd boss

#

i've been running all my pug keys as cleave hybrid

#

only running bleed with my group if they request it

#

i can imagine 19 top is a shitty key to time

hazy breach
#

Im playing as much sub as i can, so probably gonna play sub in the ToP ez

tribal blade
#

oooo

hazy breach
#

DFC, Workshop and ToP

tribal blade
#

i have yet to try sub in DFC

hazy breach
#

But i dont think its actually better for overall in DFC

#

Its just that 60% of the key is candelking

#

And its better there

tribal blade
#

yeah candle king is a crazy fight, the hps check is nuts

#

oh for DFC how do you do 1st pull as sub

#

since it's a long ass walk followed by the knock circle

hazy breach
#

I dont start my burst until after the knock usually

#

Send a kidney on a caster or the stoneguy

tribal blade
#

ok gotcha

hazy breach
#

Feels kinda ass anyway

#

Ngl

tribal blade
#

yeah massive feels bad lol

#

don't get to pad on the shitters

hazy breach
#

Atleast its easy to kill the minecarts

tribal blade
#

i swear i can't stand small shitters mobs in M+

#

true, playing sin on that boss feels so bad

#

for target swapping

#

are you BPing the adds on that boss

#

or just full prio evising

hazy breach
#

Na the adds dont matter

#

Theyll die to the cart or the roof falling anyway

rocky ocean
#

details dps is the most important stat

hazy breach
#

Not relevant for this boss, but you can also just not apply caustic to make your funnel targets live longer

hazy breach
#

On like swampface with divers in floodgate or something

#

IPA/Kultharok type shit

tribal blade
#

i'm honestly not sure if i'd be able to, the urge to press mut to apply spatter has been so deeply engrained

#

after doing stuff like going into burst and realizing halfway through i never applied spatter

brittle plinth
#

When did sub learn mutilate?!

vale pine

Hello people so quick question, i am new to sub rogue started this monday, at 3k rio and so on, my jastor ring is only 671 cause its hero should i switch it out with a crafte 681 on with versa mastery, maybe crit? (my stats atm are 106% Mastery, 21% Versa, 3% Tempo annnnd 18% crit)

fleet wharf
#

question about OAB. We don't pad on adds as sub right (like we never target away from oab right)? On a related note, exactly how does blade flurry work? is it in aoe around you?

lilac stag
#

Typically at this point you just cleave off boss unless your range sucks.

fleet wharf
hollow spear
#

I'm losing 9k sim dps if I switch from the crit blasphemite to the speed one. I think that's unironically good garf_sit

hazy breach
#

Turns out 0.15% crit dps is not very relevant

fleet wharf
#

!improvement

#

!improve

#

what's the command again?

hollow spear
#

Yeah, 9k is nothing in the greater scheme of things

hazy breach
#

!mistakes

wicked joltBOT
#

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.
fleet wharf
#

I dunno, coming from spriest, I feel speed is better than a miniscule increase to crit damage isn't it?

bleak night
#

realistically rogue is already fast enough without it

#

but we can be faster

fleet wharf
#

no such thing as too much mobility

#

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

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.
fleet wharf
#

Quick question about macros and whatnot. I have two separate binds for sec tech, one without anything else bound to it, another with CB bound to it. Would it be a bad idea to have symbols bound to the CB macro?

hollow spear
#

Yes

fleet wharf
#

I know that's the common wisdom, but I'm not seeing it. Wouldn't I always want the CB'd sec tech to also benefit from symbols?

hollow spear
#

Yes, but sometimes (or often), we press symbols in our second dance during blades and use evis before we use sectec

#

(because of the cdr required to get sectec back up)

fleet wharf
#

I was just doing a log analysis of some kills today and doing some comparison to the !mistakes screenshot, but couldn't the 2nd symbosl move to where CB is though?

hollow spear
#

Not impossible

#

But I wouldn't bother

#

Just use symbols separately

fleet wharf
#

Yea, I think that's the next thing I'm trying to wean myself off of is to stop using the dance+symbols macro altogether

#

It is nice to press once in the opening though, haha.

#

(I have symbols and dance bound separately, I'm not just pressing the macro all the time)

hollow spear
#

That should be a goal for sure

fleet wharf
#

It was kind of odd how long it took my brain to use a separate bind for CB, but i only started working on that because apparently it was a decent bit of dps loss to just have CB bound to sec tech

hollow spear
#

Yeah, our cds are just so important

fleet wharf
#

I did a quick check on lorrgs, but it seems like CB basically is a 1.5 min cd for us?

hollow spear
#

Yeah, the gain of using it on a mini burst vs the loss of messing it up for your flag burst is not worth

short radish
#

and make a new one for the CB sectech bind

fleet wharf
#

Yup, that's what I ended up doing. I'm still thinking I want to add symbols to the CB sectech bind

short radish
#

do not

fleet wharf
#

Could you elaborate a bit more though? I'm looking at the !mistakes screenshot and I don't see why it's bad to move the symbols from after the backstab to sstrike

hazy breach
#

If you have rotten sure you get slightly more damage from critting with strike

#

But you lose 0.5s uptime from inev

#

Which you are going to overcap by using your next symbols before pandemic anyway if you delay

fleet wharf
#

oh I see. So the way it's posted on the !mistakes screenshot, that maximizes the Symbols uptime including pandemic buff right?

hazy breach
#

Its also just way easier to use them at the same time

fleet wharf
#

by "them" you mean sdance and symbols?

hazy breach
#

Or wait, are you talking about the second symbols

fleet wharf
#

yes, 2nd symbols. Because right now I have 2 binds for dance

hazy breach
#

Ok ye its to supercharge sectech

fleet wharf
#

that shouldn't cause issues to bind cb and symbols together right?

short radish
#

sometimes you may need to press it earlier

#

rarely

#

and usually if you fuck up

#

but it happens

hazy breach
#

What

fleet wharf
#

well I was thinking about adding symbols to the bind because I was fucking up my symbols usage, lol

hazy breach
#

You wouldnt CB symbols no

fleet wharf
#

so I have a sec tech bind, another one for sec tech+ cb

hazy breach
#

Ye

fleet wharf
#

I'm thinking about adding symbols to the 2nd one, so I don't have the fuckups I made today where I don't benefit from the super charger on my juiced sec tech

hazy breach
#

Would not recommend

#

Delays your sectech

#

The reason youre using symbols like in that picture is because the cooldown of sectech is ~10 seconds

#

So you can use it next global

#

If you dont, youll have 2-3s left on it

#

So you have to strike > evis before you can use it again

fleet wharf
#

Right, but my symbols and cb wouldn't be bound to dance, so I don't think I'd be losing sec tech uptime or usage from doing this

hazy breach
#

?

#

It has nothing to do with dance

lucid jackal
#

Just don't do it

#

It's bad, trust us

hazy breach
#

The reason were not recommending a bunch of macros isnt because were elitist and hate macros

#

Its because theyre losing you dps

fleet wharf
#

alright, you guys are the experts. I do feel I am getting more used to the sub cd rotations with more practice these days though

short radish
#

attalad

#

just keep hitting d ummies

#

it should be largly muscle memory

hazy breach
#

Like CB should absolutely be redesigned so that its passive and you dont need to press it the way you do right now

#

But alas, thats not how the spec works rn

bleak night
#

cb tied to symbols and effects your next two finishers

#

huge

fleet wharf
#

I do like that we can play it in raid without feeling like you're griefing other people's time now though

short radish
#

never was

#

just had to play better 🙃

bleak night
#

or play so badly it doesnt matter what spec you're on

#

thats my trick

fleet wharf
#

I am legit not getting how to play assassination, it's kind of troubling lmao

short radish
#

press enveom

#

keep up bleeds

#

????

#

profit

fleet wharf
#

so you only fill your gcds with button presses during your burst phases

#

and when you don't have kingsbane up, you just press 3 button every 5 seconds or so?

short radish
#

uhhh

#

but yeah

#

outside burst

#

you just maintain bleeds

fleet wharf
#

yea, I'll prolly do that, but I'd rather play sub

bleak night
#

i mean you just press buttons when you have the energy to press them'

#

and watch something on your second monitor

fleet wharf
#

but then you burn through your tea and are sad in the next burst phase when you have nothing to press

short radish
#

pool before you send

bleak night
#

you dont play around tea whatsoever

#

and you pool to about 150 energy before your kingsbane anyway

fleet wharf
#

don't you also need to go into burst with some tea charges?

hazy breach
#

Nop

short radish
#

no

#

tea doesnt matter

fleet wharf
#

hm, might explain something lmao

short radish
#

but also fuck playing that stinky spec

fleet wharf
#

don't you kind of have to play sin for progging mugzee tho?

short radish
#

no

#

you dont have to play anything

#

you can play whatever you enjoy

#

unless you are like

#

top 20 or something

#

whatever is the best spec that you play

#

is fine

fleet wharf
#

I see. so at this point of gear inflation, just do whatever the fuck you want and it should be fine is what I'm taking away from this?

short radish
#

yes

#

assi had the niche of having really good excute damage

#

but it also kinda doesnt really matter anymore

#

your wiping because of a lack of damage

#

is not because you didnt play assi

fleet wharf
#

!symbols

short radish
#

but because your raid had 3 people dead

#

blah blah but you should min/max whatever you can

fleet wharf
#

I'm about to trial for a guild next week on the rogue, will see how it goes

short radish
#

yeah but youre in a WR 1k+ guild so theres way more things to min max than swapping specs

#

half the ppl in the raid at that level

fleet wharf
#

Insightful

short radish
#

probably dont press buttons correctly

#

or have never hit a target dummy once in their life

fleet wharf
#

lol, harsh but prolly true

short radish
#

i'll doom a lot about sub

#

on how its pretty shit atm

#

and guy will come in here and say sub is fine

bleak night
#

or your guild might make you go into gaols and make playing assa pointless anyway

short radish
#

and he's largely correct

bleak night
short radish
#

we may be "bottom" on damage

#

at least i think we still are

#

but the variance is so whatever

#

it doesnt matter

#

and if your RL says "why aren't you playing assi?"

#

tell him ravenholdt said you could play sub and its fine

#

people also need to remember that parsing is only against the spec theyre playing

#

so if they play a spec that does slightly more damage, but theyre very more shit at it

#

theyre gonna perform the same except now they are a green parser

we can be deathstalker too no?

#

as sub I mean

warm marlin
#

if you somehow get 2 cages within 2 mins and don't have vanish back up

#

it is OVER

short radish
#

yeah but just because we can

fleet wharf
#

not that you'd want to now i guess

short radish
#

doesnt mean we should

short radish
#

and go my bad

fleet wharf
#

is it still like 5% behind trickster?

short radish
#

its 500000% behind trickster dont even think about it

lucid jackal
#

Both sub and sin are spectators

warm marlin
#

back when we were doing the 4min push you could hold a dance for it reasonably (i was hard assigned)

#

my damage wasn't so bad to the goons then

lucid jackal
#

Rather kill myself than save a dance for that mechanic

warm marlin
#

Shrug didn't end up delaying flag

lucid jackal

its the principal of it

so it double made sense to dance the goon

idk not the end of the world imo

i am happier now with 3min push and being outside the cages

short radish
#

yeah

#

3min push is comfy

#

last flag can line up with adds as well

lucid jackal
#

Yeah we hold damage right for my 3rd flag It's awful

if i get the 430 cage i just sit there and stack sht auto attacking away

the fact that there's like 3 seperate 1 shot things on the fight all overlapping each other is nuts

tribal blade
alpine wraith
#

speedshroud stonks

tribal blade
#

i suppose yeah

#

BUT also the fact that every single M+ mob has truesight now haha

lilac stag
#

excuse me, it’s just the elites. garf_sit

alpine wraith
#

some mobs that have truesight you can sap tho

#

it is a bit funny

lilac stag
#

I swear the true sight in visions is nearly doubled in range.

light marlin
#

any advice for getting into m+ sug? my ST on bosses is insane but i cant figure out how to do damn in packs that flag isnt up for

lilac stag
#

Sug?

#

number one mistake is not using CDs aggressively enough. Outside of that the spec is just “good” in keys. Too much work for most people when you can typically do much better as assa or outlaw as CD management is near non-existent comparatively.

#

Think of the dungeon as one boss encounter instead of each pack being a separate encounter.

vestal escarp
#

Ah yes shroud

#

Weaker mindsoothe

vale pine
#

good morning beautiful people, how is the game treating you?

keen dome
#

I stepped on a rock and it disconnected me

#

So a solid 6/10 today.

tribal blade
#

timed an 18 flood today

#

1 step closer to 18 resil

keen dome
#

Hell yeah!

jade urchin
#

im doin myth gally tonight, whats the reason for the ~35 second delay of first cds? is it still worth to do that?

warm marlin
#

well "pad" on adds, it is helpful to have technicians/wrenchmongers die within a reasonable amount of time

limpid sage
#

You can also do on pull

#

Should give you cds for the 2x ogre fellas that the tank can pull while he does the tank mechanic

jade urchin
#

theres some logs that just send on cds, i guess thats not good for prog

warm marlin
#

i sent on cd on prog and think its probably better

#

it depends on what you're wiping to

jade urchin
#

aight will find out and fuck around

#

tyvm

hollow spear
#

I've reduced it down from two to one dance before flag and send that around 23-25 seconds in

#

We kick early and I cannot get the required cdr to actually get much of my flag window overlapping with the adds

jade urchin
#

mind sending me your log so i can check dance timings?

hollow spear
#

The same as Ryldd, just one less before flag and one more after

#

On my phone rn, don't have my logs ready

jade urchin
#

no worries, i just see like 20 logs playing cds differently

#

i feel like it wont matter at this point

hollow spear
#

@warm marlin are you pooling your dance stacks to 2 for your second flag to get the back to back dance at the 3min add spawn?

warm marlin
#

and one symbol sectec

#

if you're only dancing once at the starting shield you can probably just dance with that symbols instead

jade urchin
#

im seeing 2 dance on shield -> 36 sec cds + 2dances -> 1 dance -> 2dance cds -> 2dance 3min adds

#

i think ill try that mostly

hollow spear
#

It's really hard to stay at 2 stacks for a little. My monkey brain wants to hit that button so bad garf_sit

warm marlin
#

i also dont think i overcapped before 2nd flag

#

i was like 2s off

short radish
#

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

#

2nd adds came out too slow

#

almost had ya

#

got like 0 damage on 2nd lot of adds

#

the holding cds 30 seconds works so fucking well though

#

actually insane

#

(to do damge to adds)

warm marlin
#

noob!

short radish
#

next week

warm marlin
#

youll get it next week fs

#

im playing boss dmg

#
  • extra 3%
short radish
#

oh true

#

but then adds die faster

warm marlin
#

if you time flag properly i think you just beat every other spec in the game no

short radish
#

yeah

#

(with pad)

#

i defs beat r1 assi

#

like if i had delayed my flag by 5 more seconds

warm marlin
#

i did mine too late

short radish
#

still lost to ret though

warm marlin
#

we deposit the bomb super early

short radish
#

RIP

warm marlin
#

also once we get full raid buff + delve belt etc we're just going to skip the 7min add set

#

itll be so joever

#

i haven't spoken to him in ages

warm marlin
#

Not atm

tribal blade
#

damn

#

out of everyone i've met on wow, that guy had the most perfect youtube voice i've ever heard

#

swear on my life he could narrate YT videos as a job

warm marlin
#

haven’t been there super long so I’m not a big lore master but I don’t think he’s playing wow atm

tribal blade
#

ahhh gotcha

wicked urchin
#

until it’s higher ilvl ofc

warm marlin
#

idk after circlet I’m kind of expecting them to buff it by 200% 1 day before .7 drops

tribal blade
#

i really hope it's not a big power bump, i'm getting tired of reprogging key levels

warm marlin
#

No way they keep the big borrowed power of the patch so weak that it isn’t equippable week 1

tribal blade
#

i honestly think blizz needs to chill out with randomly giving us big power bumps throughout key seasons

#

it's exhausting

lilac stag
#

simple solution, stop pushing keys

tribal blade
keen dome
#

We don't need a Belt and boost

lilac stag
keen dome
#

Ye

lilac stag
#

turbo boost bumped m+ engagement. I’m sure there are accountants that are happy to have playrate going up

vestal escarp

You will play the gated content and you will like it

skull skull get back into lfg

#

Dont make me pull out the belt

tribal blade
#

although the members of my group are burning out 1 by 1 right now haha

#

we'll see what happens

lilac stag
#

I give it 2 more resets

please stop spreading false news

Big stonks for Prophet

i broke the 3600 mark so hopefully it'll be easier to get into groups

#

...until i need to start doing 19s

lethal thorn
#

so the new belt seems like a dud from the early sim ?

alpine wraith
#

most of the power will come from the ramping ilvl yes

lethal thorn
#

i wonder if will see the defensiv option used to push highier keys ?

keen dome
#

It'll probably get a buff just before it launches like circlet did.

brittle plinth
void ocean
#

i mean, how are we gonna finish the season without that extra dps

#

tho if it enables 17ppl mythic raiding, that would mean i might get CE 😄

trail furnace
#

How often should I be backstabbing? I normally only do it during shadow dance to get 1 Danse macabre stack but during flag should I be backstabbing instead of shadowstriking always?

void ocean
#

once per dance is just fine

trail furnace
#

Alright

#

Saw a video of a guy doing like 3-4 backstabs in a row during combo and I was questioning

brittle plinth
#

I feel personally attacked

#

Jk

hazy breach
#

Only use if premed is up, otherwise no Surebud

#

If you accidently strike first gcd so you dont have premed any more you wouldnt backstab

alpine wraith
#

what a trooper helping us stay down

#

so we get buffed again

graceful osprey
#

Maybe we should use that auto dps rotation button so that blizzard will see that we are underperforming so that they’ll give us a massive buff

brittle plinth
#

Unironically, that one button rotation may work well on bleed.

vale pine
#

the one button rotation probably works well on some other specs/classes

#

its just not that good for us

alpine wraith
#

energy specs are krangled because of 1.0 gcd

#

but maybe for some casters it is ok

keen dome
#

At least it's a % now and scales properly.

hollow spear
#

The way our cooldowns play out, it just can't really be competitive

#

But that's not the point of it anyway

dry plank
vale pine
#

I don't think they will, but maybe i am wrong

keen dome
#

It might cause them to look at how some classes behave and go "..damn." and refine them. but ye I doubt it.

#

it's not a system meant for everyone, but a system meant to replace people who use stuff like hekili, etc, eventually.

#

Also accessibilit

clever delta
#

There is still less sub parses than outlaw

#

How im suppose to compete in this environment

dry plank
#

Compete with your shadow (past you)

Maybe they're running the comp zac has been running?

Solar beam too op

just thankful im getting invtes TBH, just a funny specifc request

chrome palm
#

Feral is really good in Phys comp when a boomkin doesn’t have arcane int and chaos brand

hazy breach
#

Feral is just really good in general

serene notch
#

do they gain as much as we do with skyfury?

hazy breach
#

Idk probably

chrome palm

They have a really good auto attack proc iirc

brittle plinth

Feral looks like a blast too

I was actually wondering if running elusiveness would make sense to get the soaks before the 3rd soak on mugzee

alpine wraith
#

elu is always good but only if you are consistently never making mistakes

#

otherwise cheat saves you

wild hornet
#

well i did soak a bomb only once today so

where was the raid sheet for feint?

i dont remember if the soaks were mitigated by feint

they are

it is donezo forever unless they take adds off

#

we are killing before second set almost

#

at 7 mins

#

i only had time to sec tech once

#

and not even the second one

#

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

sly shore
#

We killed before they spawned today

#

People are killing in like 6.20-6.50 now

alpine wraith
#

my condolences

sly shore
#

Its only going to get funnier as we go

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

we dont have many 2 min specs

sly shore
#

I was evoker today

#

And i didn't realise how fast we kill

#

And did the hold for 3m cd usage to line up with 7m

#

And uhhhhh

alpine wraith
#

ah rip

sly shore
#

Lost an entire cd

alpine wraith
#

what do you even do

#

dragon rage at 6

sly shore
#

You just on cd

alpine wraith
#

i mean you already line up with adds at 4 right

sly shore
#

They are dead

hazy breach
#

Boss dps maxxing just sending on cd garf

sly shore
#

Before you can 4m

#

I was doing 3.55M on mugzee

alpine wraith
#

i dont even do the holding flag to 30 secs because we insta interrupt

sly shore
#

We had some accidents and 4 of us died

#

Including me 😦

alpine wraith
#

i got killed by ray add

#

tbh i could have vanished

#

just didnt expect that much dmg

sly shore
#

Nothing does damage now

alpine wraith
#

at like last 5%

sly shore
#

Have 90-95% uptime on the embellish buff

alpine wraith
#

yea same

clever delta
#

like 9:30

sly shore
#

Idk not even playing rogue this week

#

Would rather play evoker in raid because it has tangible upgrades

alpine wraith
#

and actually does dmg

#

crazy

sly shore
#

Its also fun

#

I decided ill stick to dev evoker main alt

#

Rather than flip flopping and undecided

graceful crown
#

how evoker is fun

#

atleast in ST are 2 skills

#

haha

bleak night
#

flameshaper is fun

#

big engulfs

sly shore
#

Cos its more in depth than you think

#

And min max movement is fun

#

And the clipping is interesting

graceful crown
#

feels like a retri to me

sly shore
#

Fun is fortunately subjective

graceful crown
#

true

bleak night
#

ret is fun

graceful crown
#

more than evoker to me ye, apm haste playtime and 30s windows are cool

sly shore
#

That's basically evoker

graceful crown
#

unghh

bleak night
sly shore
#

Its cd duration is 38s every 2 mins

graceful crown
#

but you are a caster KEKW

sly shore
#

And like I said, more in depth than you think

graceful crown
#

neh

#

i have one at 670 and feels clunky

#

never touched it again

sly shore
#

Maybe youre just bad at it

#

Like I am

graceful crown
#

again KEKW

sly shore
#

Im good enough to do 8/8 on farm

#

Splits will be different

#

And i will plan better defensive than I do now

trail furnace
#

made an insanely braindead simple WA that will glow + beep sound when Coup de Grace is active since I've always had a hard time seeing it sometimes and I like to make sure I symbols it, anyway, its here if anyone has similar issues seeing coup https://wago.io/AkaKq8Pk7

Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements

hazy breach
#

You do not need to supercharge it

#

Supercharging a coup and supercharging a regular evis gives the same amount of damage

trail furnace
#

oh shiet

#

well ill still keep it

#

so I know when to NOT symbols 😄

hazy breach
#

You dont need to not symbols it

#

Like it just doesnt matter

#

Its +3 cp either way, 7 to 10 is the same as 12 to 15

trail furnace
#

well then I will keep it as a general qol

#

but good to know

#

ive always symbol'd it cause I thought it was goated

#

but turns out I was the fool all along

tribal blade
#

@hazy breach just timed an 18 workshop with a lock doing the skip tech right after the 4 pack after 2nd boss

#

the amount of time you save is incredible

steel jolt
#

have you seen the spider skip after first boss?

tribal blade
#

nah i haven't

steel jolt
tribal blade
#

not sure i've even seen a pov of that one yet

#

oh yes this is what we did, just with gate

#

i think you meant to say 2nd boss 😉

steel jolt
#

yeah i guess i thought it was somewhere else

tribal blade
#

not needing the do the spider is a huge thing

#

and yeah doing the last pack is scary, they also chained it into the boss

steel jolt
#

that is nuts

tribal blade
#

and i got overlapped, but luckily had cloak up

#

so i lived

steel jolt
tribal blade
#

yeah not so sure about chaining 2 of those bots into last boss haha

#

but these guys were big gamers

steel jolt
#

sounds like it

heady shell
#

why is it so hard to get into a M+ group as subtlety rogue 😦

steel jolt
#

i think it's hard for everyone. there's always someone better

heady shell
#

Give rogue lust or brez plz

brisk onyx
lilac stag
#

Rogues have battle res points at the AH

shrewd lantern
tribal blade
#

we don't have lust/bres

#

so immediately it's hard to take a rogue

heady shell
#

sadge

shrewd lantern
#

Hard for any spec

#

dont pug

tribal blade
#

whenever you're forming a group your first consideration is getting a lust and a bres

#

so the meta healer is disc, which has no lust or bres

#

meta tank is vdh, no lust or bres

#

and then you'll always have like a dk or boomy or mage

#

and if it's the dk+boomy or some other bres class

#

you can't join

shrewd lantern
#

theres been an uptick of rsham

#

lately

short radish
#

rogue poison needs to be a 2% damage amp instead

heady shell
#

I agree

#

I've gotten into a couple phys groups which feel amazing

haughty rose
#

how tf is murlok deciding who shows up and who don't? my m+ rating is higher than the lowest sub rogue but i don't show up. also why are there only 42 sub rogues?

alpine wraith
#

it does not update every day iirc

#

i was there for a while then not

pastel rampart
#

it excludes "inactive" characters

haughty rose
alpine wraith
#

smh if not 3.6k not enough

#

but tbh i never use murloc

tribal blade
#

you apply atrophic to any mob, and it gives everyone the DR aura

#

but also yeah it giving a dmg amp would be cool

short radish
#

Yeah even hunters have one now (for the last expansion or 2)

#

the only other ones that have a non defensive is

priest which has 5% hp
paladin which has same as us but all 3 specs
warlock which is one of the most essential raidbuffs

#

and evoker i guess

#

but fuck evokers

#

they arent people

tribal blade
#

TRUE

short radish
#

also evokers have a healing spec

#

and a spec that should be deleted

#

why does blizzard hate rogues so much

#

holy shit

lilac stag
#

People would realize how much rogue is hated if 10 man mythic ever returns.

keen dome
#

I counter-balance it by loving rogue

lilac stag
#

You wouldn’t get invited to your own 10 man kekw

keen dome
#

That's true

ancient whale
#

!wa

tidal chasm
#

We have to have the worst util for M+ at the moment right? Can't skip 50% of packs now and atrophic is mega useless

hollow spear
#

It's pretty decent in raid, unfortunately quite inconsistent

#

Could maybe make it a 1% dmg buff and a 2% dr

#

Or we could just remove all raid buffs

tidal chasm
#

I think it's important for classes to have distinguishing features but they need to promote combinations and compositions with other classes, like on sub you want War/Sham for their buffs etc. Things should synergise with other classes. X% damage reduction that sometimes works sometimes doesn't apply is boring af

lilac stag
#

You’re mistaking want shaman/warrior with NEED shaman/warrior

#

no spec should be as reliant as sub is on skyfury and/or battle shout

short radish
#

i had to reclear sprocket 3 times without battleshout Despairge

formal helm
#

chat, is there any sims of the delve belt so far? How good / bad is it for sub?

#

it'll be buffed so its usable and required

#

dont worry

remote shuttle
#

Let it get 700 ilvl and also free extra versa for us with the proc

ashen dock
#

crazy, a belt gets more love than a whole spec

#

make it make sense

alpine wraith
#

likely mastery is better

#

but all effects are very mid

#

also will get buffed

warm marlin
#

the cycling thing doesnt line up super well with flag iirc

alpine wraith
#

did you use circe?

#

it was like 0.8% for me

#

and it lines up very well for flag

#

you are getting most of the mastery just as you do the second sec tech

hollow spear
#

I think your profile is quite unique Hacha

alpine wraith
#

i mean i have a lot of mastery so mastery should be worse

#

not better than for others

#

so makes no sense

hollow spear
#

Idk, I have 14k mastery and my sim still prefers crit and vers

alpine wraith
#

although the vers one can highroll too

warm marlin
warm marlin
shrewd cairn
#

i have a question

#

lets say i use hekili to play sub rogue, how much dps am i realistically losing? i just might be stupid and dont understand how to play this class

#

when i read about the rotation and stuff it sounds so easy, but in practice i just fumble around and do nothing at all

iron roost
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
alpine wraith
#

no idea but also depends on your skill to actually hit the dances

#

a lot of people dont even use the 8 dance globals well

#

while learning

tribal blade
#

a lot of streamers have addons so you can follow along with what buttons they're pressing on their UI

shrewd cairn
#

hmm

remote shuttle
iron roost
#

Helllo new here

sly shore
#

and they nerfed mystic touch

iron roost
#

Any good subtlety rogue streamer i can watch ?

sly shore
#

no

warm marlin
#

when did they nerf mystic touch

remote shuttle
#

I uploaded some 15s (brew operation priory and mechagon) runs i did in the weekend on my twitch, u can check my disc profile to find link @iron roost (im not good btw, i just try to improve)

sly shore
#

no one plays it

sly shore
#

from 5% to 3%

remote shuttle
warm marlin
#

no its still 5%

#

only dh got hit

sly shore
#

it needs a buff then cos it's DOG SHIT

warm marlin
#

the price of having shadow damage i suppose

sly shore
#

Maybe me thinking it's like 2% increase or w/e

#

compared to battle shout being giga mongo increase

warm marlin
lilac stag
hazy breach
#

No point until they buff it

sacred yarrow
alpine wraith
#

it is unlikely to be more than 0.6 or so for sub for most profiles

#

at 700

#

so after patch drops

#

4 weeks

lilac stag
hazy breach
#

#

Also its gonna seem confusing since the ptr sims are 5% higher than live sims Classic

tribal blade
warm marlin

#

they didn’t hotfix ptr

ahhhhh

#

But we don’t know this

So stfu

ok i'll shutup

so anyways how is weather? hehe

tribal blade
#

it's pretty hot over here

warm marlin
#

5% chance of rain

tribal blade
vale pine
hazy breach
#

Just like circlet or the dragonflight ring

#

Its quite bad until a couple of days before release

#

Where they realise they need to buff it

alpine wraith
#

yea that is when the real dev comes back from vacation

#

rn we only have ernesto ermenegildo

#

he did fix sub overbuff fast tho

#

or maybe it is already buffed in their internal realm

#

and they are just working on next raid

fallow nimbus
#

Imagine we get another accidental 5% buff when next ptr build hits live because they never fixed ptr kekw

#

Because it was 10% all along feelskek

keen dome
#

Would be funny if we end up sitting at 15%

vale pine
#

unlikely

#

but it will be 2-5% i assume

#

after buffs

tidal chasm
#

idk how I guess war is less important for us than I thought

hazy breach
#

You dont need sham either

#

Its about the same dps as warrior

tidal chasm
#

it just feels so much better with the cp tho

hazy breach
#

In pure ST ye, but in aoe it doesnt matter that much

not for the group

kinda insane what lust does

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

instead of lust some classes should have masterful cry

#

40% increase mastery for 30 secs

hazy breach

#

so we can have civil wars on which to use

or keening shout or whatever 30% crit

Ye but its also using some cooked talents

what talents should it be using

tidal chasm
#

eleem is right it is using some cooked talents lmao

lilac stag
hollow spear
#

Kinda embarrassing really. First, they mess up and accidentally buff us twice by 5%. Then they fix it, but not the ptr.

#

They'll then release it, people parse for a day and they scramble to release a hotfix.

lilac stag
#

it was a hotfix deployment. For all we know it’s fixed internally and wasn’t deployed to the ptr. Which is extremely common during their dev cycles between beta and ptr

#

end of the day it won’t matter.

hollow spear
#

It will mess up the perception. Again.

lilac stag
#

who cares

hollow spear
#

The 95th percentile in wowhead's article was cooked

I do

wcl doesn’t care. player base doesn’t care. 10 people in discord may care. omegalul
