They did not fix in retail

#

It's a month or so

#

I got 2.3 weeks of bosses left to do

#

This drop buff is nonsensical.

Week before buff I got my second binding, first glaive and invincible in the same week. Week off buff I have pulled nothing so far.

cloud rover
#

Even in 25 player?

so true, sin's prio is nutty

Arcane Prio

oblique burrow
#

Are we horny for prio?

lilac stag
#

We were the prio spec

#

Then Zul happened.

cloud rover
#

We dont talk about the Zul Incident

lilac stag
#

now we just are beta testing spec/talent designs for assa

oblique burrow
#

I love ass

#

ass rogue*

haughty mural
#

Who knows - maybe they’ll like assa as 1.5 min spec so they can keep that niche

oblique burrow
#

and then we'll have no problem switching adds, as a 1.5 min spec

swift tinsel
#

meanwhile sin justspatters them into oblivion and funnels into boss

haughty mural
oblique burrow
#

that would be quite cool

haughty mural
#

Then delete sub

#

So I can move on

oblique burrow
reef walrus
#

they can still equip bows, it's useless and you can't use abilities, but you can equip it

cloud rover
#

Thats how i got the first Raszageth Bow for Transmog

#

Because i could equip it and we had no Hunter

pale spoke
#

i think i’m a bit confused about what to do in between goes. after our flag/blades/sectech go, i usually come out of it with no dances and 1 symbols

until my next go, am i just farming my cds back? and then id use that one symbols for the one sec tech i get inbetween goes?

cloud rover
#

I think usualy you can get 1 dance inbetween and one Symbol + Sectech

brittle plinth
#

Good time for coffee

swift tinsel
#

but the in-between times are basically for farming cdr

#

if you find yourself able to send symbols + sectech then that's fine as long as you have everything up for your next flag

cloud rover
#

It can happen that it works on 1:30 and 3 Min too, but you really need good procs for that

#

thats not reliable

swift tinsel
#

yeah gotta get omega lucky

cloud rover
swift tinsel
#

yeah aoe has much higher cp economy

pale spoke
#

awesome, thank you both— this is super helpful. just so i understand:

0:00-1:30 — 2 Sod/Dances (what we use during the go effectively, and holding until 1:30)

1:30-3:00 — 2 for the go, and then 1 in in-between goes?

and for procs, which proc are we referencing? thanks for answering q’s too. recently moving to sub haha

cloud rover
#

Most likely you only get 1 Dance after 1:30 inbetween,

#

We mean Shadow Technique Procs and Weaponmaster Procs

pale spoke
#

so between 0:00-1:30, it’s a total of 4 each? 2 sod/dances during flag, and then 2 in-between until 1:30?

swift tinsel
#

between flags you basically look at secret technique and if you can send sod and dance with it

cloud rover
#

ye kind off

swift tinsel
#

without scuffing your next flag

hazy breach
#

You ALWAYS want 2 dances, 2 sectechs and 2 symbols during flag&blades

#

I wouldnt really get hung up on "i need to use 2 inbetween here and 1 next time" etc because those can and will vary based on procs and how much uptime you have

swift tinsel
#

if not, then look at if you can send just sod with it, then if you can just send naked sectech

hazy breach
#

When you press flag you need atleast 1 charge and ~35 seconds left on your second charge of dance

#

If you get to flag and you dont have that, then you've sent too many before

pale spoke
#

this is super super helpful, thank y’all so much

hazy breach
#

Getting 2 during flag is by far the most important, accidently overcapping one dance outside, while bad, is significantly better than not being able to double dance during flag+blades

pale spoke
#

in terms of dance in between the go: do we rip it off CD so we can build/spend faster to get to sectech + symbols, or it would be dance + symbols together for the sec tech? (assuming we’d have it back in time for flag)

swift tinsel
#

you can dance/symbols when sectech has ~10sec left on its cd

#

as long as its supercharged

#

and if you have coup ready, you can do that when sectech has closer to 15sec left

#

but that's something to play with once you're more comfortable with the flow of it

cloud rover
#

Just press Buttons

swift tinsel
pale spoke
#

really really dope. thank you so much

#

haha yeah i love the min/max stuff. coming from mage to rogue next season

#

this discord is also way more organized and less stressful than altered time LOL

brittle plinth
#

Smaller player base

runic trail

Also mages are crazy I swear

vocal wolf
brittle plinth
#

TiL I was using profanity

#

Ohhhh I googled it, now I understand

haughty mural
#

Stop being rude

brittle plinth
#

I literally didn't draw the connection

haughty mural
#

Joke - now I’m highly interested in what you wrote

void ocean
#

what did u say

brittle plinth
#

I thought it was a word for like zerging in a dumb way

#

Not a derogatory slur for Asperger's

brittle plinth
runic trail
cloud rover
#

I literally dont know what you mean by the explanation, but its whatever anyways kekdog

brittle plinth
runic trail
#

I never viewed it as derogatory personally, but I'm also diagnosed autistic and love a bit of self-deprecation, so my perception is probably skewed. It's no big deal at least.

brittle plinth
#

I couldn't even distinguish it in that way since I was missing the connection. Anyway back to being sub rogues.

runic trail
#

So how about find weakness huh?

#

(that should get us going)

tribal blade
#

here

#

a little bit of blizz being blizz to tangent

brittle plinth
#

Hahahahaha

#

I feel like if the UI does it for you, it's fine.

#

You know what is underappreciated, the new eating skill.

#

I spam the fuck out of that

tribal blade
#

it's just funny

#

it's the same as them going "tracking all this stuff in raid is unacceptable, we're gonna start private auraing stuff"

#

and then make mechanics that are borderline impossible without weakauras

north schooner
#

I don't believe they will limit tracking friendly auras

#

but at the same point we know nothing because they've given 0 info

runic trail
#

Just let me have my little bar in the middle of my screen for my buffs/debuff trackers, I don't care about much else

#

Had to turn off the WA pack once and playing without it was miserable

brittle plinth
#

They specifically called out tracking other ppls CDs

#

For sure they will limit stuff like this

north schooner
#

CDs and auras are different though

#

and there is no way they block access to auras applied by the player to friendlies

hazy breach
#

Why wouldnt they

north schooner
#

they'd have to redesign all healer specs

hazy breach
#

No

#

Theyd just make it baseline

#

But not allow addons to see it

#

Thats their entire thing theyre talking about

vocal wolf
#

I'm curious how well wcl is gonna track stuff if they are planning on disabling log hooks

brittle plinth
#

Their long term goal is to have a version of the game that is mostly playable out of the box

#

so console/mobile become options

#

that means removing things the community thinks it has to add

north schooner
#

whatever they make baseline will be somewhat skinable by addons at least. Similar but hopefully more extensible than what they did with private auras (which failed as a concept)

brittle plinth
#

so if its essential, it becomes tracked natively, or they design around that

hazy breach
#

Im pretty sure its gonna suck ass for a while because their track record with stuff like this is not great

#

But as always, blizzard has good and solid goals but end up tripping on their execution to reach said goal

north schooner
#

but I don't trust that they will manage to keep a whitelist of auras that are visible up to date between patches. They failed to do that with the CD tracker already

vocal wolf
#

If I have a trial who's found out to be playing mobile I'd prolly fail them xd

north schooner
#

maybe they will have a better idea of what is being restricted when gamescom is happening and they announce midnight etc. For now any clarifications they've provided are very vague

#

and there is a lot of dooming happening due to that

swift tinsel
#

It soundsvery much like they want to eliminate the computational power of addons like weakauras, less so the ones that don't impact decision-making

#

or that trivialize parts of encounters

#

which is a good thing

#

now whether or not they implement that well, remains to be seen and they don't exactly have history on their side

vocal wolf
#

For me it's the idea they are planning for console/mobile but they keep having horribly optimized fights. I've seen good PCs freeze up on fights like Tindrial, Ovinax, (I hear OAB wasn't great either). Just trying to imagine someones phone trying to handle some of those bosses lol

runic trail
#

I'd have a bit more faith if the cooldown manager released in a more feature complete state. I know it's still a huge work in progress but, I think tensions would be relieved a bit if it was better out of the gate

vocal wolf
#

The lack of adjustability really killed it

swift tinsel
#

the cooldown manager is also competing with weakauras which as considerably more but also has 100x the incubation period/iterations

runic trail
#

I'm not saying it needed to be perfect, it just needed to be more functional than it is now

#

Because I tried it, realised I could barely do anything with it and then disabled the feature

swift tinsel
#

they should have waited to release it until it was more fleshed-out for sure

#

theydropped it like a week after first saying it was gonna be a thing lol

runic trail
#

Yeah, I fully accept it's still in an early state but releasing it as it is was... Very dumb

cloud rover
#

They half ass like every major feature they add

swift tinsel
#

yeah that's the blizz standard approach

north schooner
#

no the CD manager released in a tragic state. Some specs were missing vital things in their list. I have no idea why they didn't delay it, but that entire patch was a disaster tbh

cloud rover
#

of course people are really sceptical about the new UI restrictions

swift tinsel
#

*see every system ever added to the game ever

runic trail
#

11.1.5 was... One of the patches of all time though

north schooner
#

it was .5

runic trail
#

Idk what they were thinking with the duos mode but.... Just give us brawlers guild back instead

#

People liked the brawlers guild

swift tinsel
#

yes please

#

wasn't it some guys pet project and he's not with blizz anymore

runic trail
#

I tried duos once, noticed some of my talents didn't work, and had no clue wtf was going on

swift tinsel
#

and no one wanted to pick up the mantle

#

duos just kinda sounds like a thrown-together mess

cloud rover
#

THATS WHY MOP CLASSIC IS THE GOAT

#

YOU CAN RELIVE BRAWLER GUILD

# swift tinsel you can dance/symbols when sectech has ~10sec left on its cd

heya! when you have a second. could you further clarify here? if i dance/sod ~10s out (15s with coup-- would i be holding my combo points until sectech is back to ensure it gets used with supercharged points? or do i just spend on evis? is it better to wait right before sectech so it's charged? sorry just some confusion here

swift tinsel
#

when using symbols with the supercharger talent, you always want to make sure you're supercharging secret technique and since we currently orient our symbols and dance usage around secret technique, you use them in a way to always guarantee its the first or second finisher after casting symbols since supercharger affects two finishers

haughty mural
#

Ah nvm you clarified with the second message

pale spoke
#

ohh!! i think i see. so as i understand:

  • 15s out w/ coup de grace (because it'll act as a +5!)
  • 10s out w/o coup

Supercharger will charge 2 combo points. But damage finishing moves only consume 1 of these points (i had thought they consumed both)

  • because of this, that means 2 finishers in our SOD window are 'supercharged'
  • this then allows us that grace period in the 10-15s window to utilize it as our second finisher!

so how does this play off the capstone talent of Forced Induction? is that strictly a dmg increase, or does that count as like a '+1' combo point, which is a further second off SecTech's CDR?

swift tinsel
proper latch
#

No point in holding cds on mythic Gally, right?

swift tinsel
#

so during regular single target play you'll aim to cast evisc/coup and sectech as those two finishers

swift tinsel
chrome palm
#

It’s helpful to not send on opening because a lot of classes will have CDs back for first add spawn, but sub opens really hard

#

So you’ll burst the shield too fast and won’t have much damage for the technician

pale spoke
#

AHHH. so when we get to our flag go. there is a real world where when we hit our scond symbols/death, that we could mess it up because we could double evis off the symbols to farm back sec tech, and when we hit cold blood for that sec tech-- it won't be supercharged

#

if we mess up the sec tech CDR timing between flag goes

proper latch
#

At this point of the patch adds just melt

chrome palm
#

Yeah but, holding for first add spawn still is a gain

swift tinsel
#

!burst

wicked joltBOT
#

During your Flagellation and Shadow Blades you want your second Shadow Dance to be cast immediately after the first one ends. You do not
want to cast Symbols of Death at the same time as your second Shadow Dance, but rather 1 or 2 seconds later when Secret Technique has
10 seconds or less remaining. This is to make sure you supercharge the Secret Technique instead of an Eviscerate.
Because of this a Shadow Dance+Symbols of Death macro is not ideal.

chrome palm
#

Don’t need to if you don’t want to

#

And obviously you can hold for the other add spawns after that

pale spoke
#

@swift tinsel THANK YOU

chrome palm
#

Because the next two blades line up with add spawns if you hold the first one

swift tinsel
pale spoke
#

hahaha thanks dude. im 3500 on arcane rn, and so eager to for the swap to rogue. so all of these min/max questions are super helpful to have answered as i wrap my brain around this spec lol

swift tinsel
#

and they suggest you're putting things together on your own and just need a bit of help filling in some of the gaps

leaden prairie
#

@swift tinsel FUCK YOU

swift tinsel
#

but also, valid point

leaden prairie
#

mb

pale spoke
#

@swift tinsel you dont pvp as sub, do you? or is there another member of the cord that can answer pvp related q's?

swift tinsel
#

nah I don't, NoTrickz is the only one I know of who does here

pale spoke
#

awesome. i'll write up some q's to add here in #pvp later on

swift tinsel
#

might find what you're looking for there

#

ah nice lol

pale spoke
#

hahaha thank you

#

so technically, i can make a WA tracker that has a 20s CD for Unseen blade

#

to min/max coup de grace

chrome palm
#

It gets reset randomly by autos which you cannot fully track

#

Istarian has a good weak aura for it

#

It’s a lot of custom code to roughly guess when you should get the reset, and it also shows when you get disorienting strikes and when they’re consumed

hazy breach
#

Tracking it doesnt really change anything anyway so i wouldnt bother

chrome palm
#

It’s kinda nice

#

I just have it on the same icon as escalating blade

#

As the bottom text

swift tinsel
#

I use LE's on ptr but I don't bother tracking on live

pale spoke
#

could I get a link to that WA?

swift tinsel
#

I kinda wanna track it though so I know when I can guarantee fazed going into flag with coup ready

#

but I can just look at flag cd and go from there probably

chrome palm
#

It’s not very important to track

leaden prairie
#

for outlaw its more relevant

chrome palm
#

So don’t worry about it as long as you’re tracking escalating blade

leaden prairie
#

cause you have a bunch of builders

#

but not really as sub

pale spoke
#

totally -- thank you. that all makes a ton of sense

#

messer-- how did you add this to the bottom of your escalating blade WA?

#

that might be a more WA intense question so apologies if this isnt the place to ask

#

but that would be great to have. i like seeing that kind of 'BLP' information. i use it on intuition for barrage a lot and it's helpful

chrome palm
#

I added the trigger for escalating blade to this weak aura and some other conditions

#

I’ll upload it for you later when I’m at my pc

pale spoke
#

awesome. thank you so much-- that would be super helpful

brittle plinth
#

The trick is to really think about what tracking really matters

#

Are you really going to play differently cause of it or not

keen dome
#

You know what's worse than Sub not getting a lot of attention? Hellfire Citadel's raid skip being after Hellfire Assault.

#

Who decided that! Who sat there and went "You know what, they should have to always do hellfire assault"

rich stump
#

Does this look cursed for M+?
You trade overall damage, because you would always evisc on highest health target but in theory it does make keys go faster
You have perma 145%+ movement speed
Gloom balade which is ok
Can play around premed outside of blades by enetering dance with full CP
Only issue I see is if there are 2-3 high HP targets
Rotten replaced with Shuriken 100% crit node
Theoretically doesn't look bad

hazy breach
#

Gloomblade is really stinky, but outside of that its fine

#

2 symbols charges feels better in theory than in practice, having the third charge, especially in keys that has downtime, is very nice

rich stump
rich stump
hazy breach
#

But ye you can play something like that if you want to, but what ive found is that you lose quite a bit of ST for little to no aoe gain

rich stump
#

yea it's a niche build, probably good in some dungeons with a premade team, running it in pugs would raise some questions from their part when there is a 20 mob pull and tank is above you

charred sandal
hazy breach
#

I mean its still gonna be stinky in aoe

charred sandal
#

so u would take 5 talents to buff it and cancel aura ur blade and shadow dance in ST PogO

charred sandal
chrome palm
#

UB tracking is in the cooldown manager?

charred sandal
chrome palm
#

That’s just escalating blade

charred sandal
#

doesnt flawless form indicate unseen blade procced

chrome palm
#

The weak aura I posted is just the isarian unseen blade predictor with escalating blade also

hazy breach
#

Aka an attempt to showing the cooldown of unseen blade

charred sandal
#

ahhh i see

chrome palm
#

Funny that sentinels much simpler private aura gets changed to a debuff

#

But not subtlety’s

charred sandal
#

it tries to predict thousand cuts reset procs

chrome palm
#

That and disorienting strikes

#

Which I believe**** can both stack

swift tinsel
#

pretty sure it does

hazy breach
#

Wdym stack

swift tinsel
#

the reset one adds on to the 2 from disorienting instead of overwriting it

chrome palm
#

Or the natty one you get at beginning of pull

swift tinsel
#

so you technically get 3

#

yeah

#

since the 1k cuts resets guarantees a UB proc on your next backstab, it does so without 'stealing' one from disorienting

#

which is what i think realz was saying in that outlaw post before

hazy breach
#

My understanding is that it always uses the disorienting blades first

charred sandal
#

dave knows his shit

chrome palm
#

If you just sec tech a dummy and wait for the natty UB proc

swift tinsel
#

I can check in just a sec but I'm 95% sure

chrome palm
#

You should be able to reliably get 3

#

I think ***

hazy breach
#

Well ye, because it uses both of your disorienting strikes and then it uses the natty one

#

the natty ones dont conflict, because it uses the disorienting strike ones first

chrome palm
#

Well who can say if thousand cuts eats disorienting then

#

Because it can’t be tracked

hazy breach
#

It doesnt eat disorienting

swift tinsel
#

could be, I've always thought of them being in two different 'banks'

#

one for disorienting, one for natty procs/thousand cuts resets

hazy breach
#

Ye

chrome palm
#

Oh you just meant

#

That it consumes the regular/tc proc before disorienting

swift tinsel
#

I haven't looked too hard into which it takes from first

chrome palm
#

Ah ok

swift tinsel
#

that would make sense though if it pulled disorienting first

hazy breach
#

Like if i pop sectech and then backstab once it will use one disorienting strike, if i fly away and afk 20s

#

And then go open it will only proc 2 in a row

chrome palm
#

Yeah

hazy breach
#

Since it used one of the disorienting strikes before, even though the natty cd was ready

#

But likewise if the natty cd is not ready you'll still be able to proc unseen with disorienting

chrome palm
#

They really need to just make it a debuff

#

When you can’t UB without disorienting

hazy breach
#

Idk i dont think it matters

chrome palm
#

Maybe they think it would be confusing if thousand cuts makes you “lose” the debuff randomly or something

#

I mean it would let you track it at least

hazy breach
#

Ye but what would that do

swift tinsel
#

outlaw would def benefit

#

and it would add a bit of ease for us too

chrome palm
#

I mean it would be nice for when you are finishing on 3 EB stacks with like 16s on sec tech and you can refresh symbols

#

Because if you know you’re getting coup then you don’t need to wait for the ub to proc

#

Gives you more time

swift tinsel
#

I think of it like Reavers Glaive which has a glow on the icon when its ready

#

it may not be required for the spec to function, but would be a positive if it existed

hazy breach
#

Idk people just overload their UI with useless shit that you dont base any decision on, and this would just be another one of those

#

Like deeper daggers or alacrity

chrome palm
#

Idk I would use it

hazy breach
#

But it doesnrt do anything

chrome palm
#

What about the situation I just mentioned

hazy breach
#

Almost never happens and even if it does it doesnt really matter

#

Because youll end up holding sectech anyway later

#

So using it 4 seconds earlier doesnt matter much

charred sandal
#

man why they took away sprint walking on water thing

hazy breach
#

Its like tracking house of cards, your weapon enchant, the new belt proc or pacemaker. It might sound like you could play around any of them but in reality it just doesnt end up being worth it on average compared to just playing around your class timings

#

There obviously could be procs like that which would be strong enough to warrant it, but none of those are particularly powerful atm

warm marlin
#

Gotta track unseen blade so you can goremaw to prevent overcap obviously

chrome palm
#

The only difference for me is that in blades, I like to know if I can supercharge coup for a little more CDR to press sec tech next

#

Personal preference

hazy breach
#

But supercharging coup doesnt matter

chrome palm
#

I know

#

I’m saying

#

If you have like 17s or so on sec tech, if you supercharge coup you can sec tech after

warm marlin
#

I track unseen blade because my wa pack just shares the one I use on outlaw

chrome palm
#

I’m just talking about the cdr from supercharging

warm marlin
#

The only time it’s mildly useful is mentally preparing for coup before it’s procced

#

so you can react to the omega delayed refund

serene notch
#

Do you track FW applications @hazy breach ?

hazy breach
#

Not on my nameplates, but i have a number that tracks the number of FWs out

serene notch
#

I feel like I should be but I kind just hand wavy it away after pressing storm once after symbols

hazy breach
#

But ye its annoying

#

Would rather not

serene notch
#

I think it’s my currently most disliked part of our kit atm

pale spoke
#

went to work but going to download when i get home asap

lilac stag
#

@tribal blade the rogue ptr notes you were hoping for just landed

warm marlin
#

Class saved!

jaunty heath
#

Yes!!! Single Target rotation buff!!

alpine wraith
#

ahahaha

runic trail
#

I saw that and its just.... oh okay then.

#

There's still a month and a bit before the patch at least

jaunty heath
#

Yeah they needed more info on the rogue specs

#

Other classes had enough info

#

But all 3 rogue specs being bottom

#

Wasn't enough

#

Need another 4 weeks before they dare touch it!

runic trail
#

I don't wanna doom, dooming isn't healthy. But at the same time.

jaunty heath
#

Hire dedicated class devs ty.

lilac stag
#

Good thing you love rogue

runic trail
#

But I've mentioned before, first character I made, there's attachment there

bleak night
#

i play my rogue because ive done the most quests on it

lilac stag
#

what are quests? Like your rogue eats protein bars?

bleak night
#

fuck tons of them

runic trail
#

The fuck do you mean champion?

#

This character hasn't done shit

bleak night
#

i just have stockholm syndrome

alpine wraith
#

i miss my original chars sometimes

#

i had lots of cool shit

swift tinsel
#

tier set change

#

no longer reset, now strikes twice

runic trail
#

WHY NOT PUT THAT IN THE NOTES YOU FUCKS

runic trail
swift tinsel
#

4pc seems to function exactly the same

left ledge
#

Wow those notes are huge for us

#

Good thing they included the real important stuff

runic trail
warm marlin
#

I guess it sort of is for outlaw

hazy breach
#

Fairly sure its better

swift tinsel
#

will still waste stacks if you proc at 3 but should lead to less friction ig

warm marlin
#

If you have to shadowstrike once before consuming the 4p you lose 2 stacks instead of one

hazy breach
#

Since ye you waste stacks, but youll get more procs during CDs

sick jackal
#

in pvp

swift tinsel
#

yeah initial thought is it's a good change

#

gonna play around with it a bit

warm marlin
#

Probably even more important to consume both coups before sectec hmmge

left ledge
#

It is a good change because now you don’t have to attempt to track something meaningless and it also means you don’t play goremaw

#

Did I mention goremaw cope is dead

#

Remove that talent

swift tinsel
#

there does appear to be a slight delay in the 2nd strike when it procs

#

but that could be latency-related

#

and its very small

left ledge
#

Prob latency if you’re testing on dummies in ptr

swift tinsel
#

like I see the stack count go from 2-3-4

#

yeah

warm marlin
left ledge
#

You either proc once or twice

warm marlin
#

Most overcap occurred during disorienting

left ledge
#

You’re gonna have to press strike anyways

warm marlin
#

Ye but if it procced before you only lost 1 stack and instead got the 2p blade next time you strike

#

Now you’ll double proc while at 4 escalating

left ledge
#

Why would you double proc at 4

#

You strike at 3, if you proc it twice you’re shafted anyways

#

If you don’t then it’s just regular

#

I’m a bit confused by what you mean

warm marlin
#

The old 2p delayed the extra unseen blade

#

Potentially allowing you to coup before using it

left ledge
#

Yeah by forcing you to strike or stab again

#

It basically gave you an extra ub

#

But you had to choose when to use it

#

Goremaw was being used to avoid wasting that extra stack by replacing a strike essentially

spice matrix
#

Have I been going cuckoo and seen eviscerate not lower the CD of Sec tech sometimes?

But how can you use goremaw to avoid wasting a stack that’s automatically used

charred sandal
#

ppl using goremaw? PogO

swift tinsel
#

okay getting back to back double hits right after spending coup to get another 2 globals later feels amazing

#

our 5 Buff dream

left ledge
#

Goremaw will never see play

lilac stag
#

It will

alpine wraith
#

you can use goremaw

#

just dont use details either

keen dome
#

If goremaw sees play in S3 I will level a DH a sa joke.

swift tinsel
#

I'm noticing getting triple dance chain is way more reliable but need to check out more

fierce wigeon
charred sandal
keen dome
#

As a joke

keen dome
warm marlin
#

I don’t think goremaw is good

#

But new 2p makes the overcap problem worse

charred sandal
#

they just remove energy from SoD and make us depend on goremaw to not starve on burst

keen dome
lilac stag
keen dome
#

nuh-uh

left ledge
warm marlin
#

30% of the time you save 2 instead of one whereas before you always saved only one

left ledge
#

Yes but you also proc a UB without committing the gcd

#

I think gambling the 30% is just never going to be worth it to play goremaw

#

I mean I get what you’re saying but it’s not like a “I’m playing around it”

warm marlin
#

Goremaw is awful but the new 2p does make it gain slightly (to still awful)

left ledge
warm marlin
#

For my goremaw enjoyers out there though

#

Huge gains

swift tinsel
#

anyone else on ptr finding they're fitting 3 sectech in flag more often

bleak night
#

nope

#

i havent played ptr though so havent found anything

warm marlin
#

Escalating is still capped at 4 right

swift tinsel
#

yep

#

buff still behaves exactly the same as before and bricks stack gain for 5 sec

#

ooo looks like dungeon trinkets are on the tauren

hazy breach
#

Which is way better than proccing it an extra time later outside cds

swift tinsel
#

hmge no HoA trinket tho

warm marlin
#

We shall see cooking

swift tinsel
#

looks like they fucked up and put a few of them in twice lol

left ledge
#

Tier change is def big for us

swift tinsel
left ledge
#

Not as good as letting it stack above 4

#

But second best option

swift tinsel
#

honestly if they do nothing else and just change the 5sec brick I'd be fine with the set going live as-is

left ledge
#

What’s the 5 sec brick

#

I’ve done 0 testing

swift tinsel
#

like yeah ideal world they let escalate stack more than 4

left ledge
#

Does it just prevent you from stacking

swift tinsel
#

because it's just a 4stack EB with a buff duration instead of a unique buff

warm marlin
#

Escalating above 4 Madge

swift tinsel
#

I mean that would be ideal just baseline

warm marlin
#

Actually the new 2p makes predisorienting stronger too right?

swift tinsel
#

it's been feeling like it so far yeah

warm marlin
#

I don’t think the free procs really work with that

swift tinsel
#

I often have coup as first evisc

warm marlin
#

With the double strike you can feasibly coup first ya

warm marlin
#

I’m not entirely sure how they interact

#

You might overwrite them with your new sectec

swift tinsel
#

yeah idk if you can indefinitely stack disorienting

#

but they can definitely strike twice

#

so functionally the same as before, any UB has a chance to stack twice

#

imma try something

warm marlin
#

I meant with the old 2p I’m not sure it fully functioned

hazy breach
#

It did

warm marlin
#

it just seemed like you would have more ubs in opener from 2p after 4 straight disorienting ones in a row

swift tinsel
#

okay you can't stack disorienting past two

warm marlin
#

maybe I’m cooked

#

6 from disorienting, on average you should proc your 2nd set of coups right after 2nd sectec since 6 guaranteed + 30%*6

#

That was not my experience

#

doesn’t matter anymore anyway

#

new 2p good

left ledge
#

If only that’s how chances work

warm marlin
#

doing the full calculation too annoying

hazy breach
#

Im pretty sure old 2p is more escalating stacks overall

#

But i also think the new 2p is more damage

#

Because each proc is better

warm marlin
#

is there ever enough cdr to do coup coup sectec in blades outside opener?

#

and still get the 2nd one in blades

#

Less potential proc waste maybe

hazy breach
#

But like haptic said earlier i think the upside of being able to double proc and get 4 stacks from 2 strikes feels good enough to outweigh any downside

#

That the new version has compared to the old

swift tinsel
#

this one definitely feels like it has more upside like you're saying

#

at least so far

#

and with tfd you're chaining triple dance triple sectech quite often

warm marlin
#

I have hope that escalating max stacks get changed so most issues are just insta resolved

swift tinsel
#

pre-disorient does feel quite a bit stronger now too

delicate steeple
#

big changes today eh

swift tinsel
#

one impactful one

#

haven't gone through the full buglist but all the usual suspects appear to still be there

midnight ledge
#

Sorry trying to keep up. Following most everything except the disorienting strikes one. What do you mean by pre disorienting? Using secret tech before burst?

tepid trellis
#

sectech a critter or smth before a pull

#

cuz the buff for the 2 free unseen blade procs

#

lasts infinitely

#

and through death

swift tinsel
#

and with new 2pc its quite common to have coup for first evisc in blades

midnight ledge
#

So in m+ the only opportunity I can think of for that is sec tech at the end of a pull and then not using bs / ss till the next pull?

tepid trellis
#

yeh or on a dummy before key start

midnight ledge
#

Ohhh

#

Okay. Thanks for the explanation. Still new to rogue 🙂

warm marlin
#

Mostly a raid thing

midnight ledge
#

Gotcha

hollow spear
#

Yeah, wouldn't recommend that in m+

#

A pre key one sure

midnight ledge
#

Thanks. Trying to learn as much as possible. 🙂

sly shore
swift tinsel
#

Yeah its pretty cool, I'm liking it

sly shore
#

better than a reset

#

or a kick in the teeth

swift tinsel
#

I personally think it'll raise the ceiling a bit

#

still going to see EB waste tho bc it def procs when you're at 3/4 EB stacks

#

but that might just be a pill we swallow

#

was saying earlier though you can highroll and get 4 stacks in 2 globals

#

which is reallll nice

alpine wraith
#

yea this one feels better

#

way easier to react/plan around too

lapis dew
#

so with no 90sec next season will subt be okay later into the season

alpine wraith
#

we have two trinkets to use

#

1 dungeon 1 raid with that timer dont worry

lapis dew
#

okok

swift tinsel
#

technically 2 dungeon if they ever put that Echelon one in

#

forgot to put it in the game today instead we got 2 Ticking Sacks and 2 Solei's

#

will try logging some dummy stuff later tho

#

but overall happy with change, just need to address EB stuff if they feel like it and we're positioned pretty well

#

oh shit forgot to check if they did a full DS rework

alpine wraith
#

also a funny thing

#

now highroll resets from thousand are even gnarlier

#

as they can rng double hit too

#

always gamble

swift tinsel
#

yuuup

#

and predisorient can give coup for first evisc

alpine wraith
#

even worse losing shamans

swift tinsel
#

had a few times where I 2nd coup, strike strike coup

keen dome
#

Time to make friends with a few Shamans to gurantee you've got one.

swift tinsel
#

also every time I play DS set I hate it more and more

#

having to babysit mark even more bc of symbols consumption feels obtrusive

alpine wraith
#

need to be ready to do some equations

#

every time

hollow spear
#

I hate predisorienting as a concept, can't we get that baked in

#

If you can't get your sectec out before a wipe, it's not great

warm marlin
#

it was in my feedback post prayge

swift tinsel
#

I made another one asking for EB stacks lol

hollow spear
#

Inb4 they reset stacks on pull

I have to update with new tier set thing ig

glacial orbit
#

how is sub looking for s3

rich stump
#

(I know the answer is I should sim but I don't trust M+ sims)
My mastery is at 21k which is to the cap 10% dr threshold
If I am going to craft a piece should I still go mastery vers or would vers crit make more sense(is mastery that much stronger than crit even if it's DRd by 10%?)

left ledge
#

You know

#

This is gonna sound crazy

serene notch
#

Not sure how to answer this, if you don’t trust the sims are you looking for opinions that just align with yours?

left ledge
#

But you should just sim it

#

There is no possible way to answer the question without simming it, both of them have no interaction other than bigger damage number

swift tinsel
#

DR's are kinda whatever anyways

rich stump
left ledge
#

They were never inconsistent for rogue afaik

#

Dungeon slice is a good sim for rogues

serene notch
#

Fair, I think the prevailing wisdom is to sim as it’s the best imperfect solution we have.

rich stump
#

ok I'll try rn

swift tinsel
#

also blizz gaslighting with the 3% devastation buff

serene notch
#

Like the rich get richer?

swift tinsel

they're losing power from their s2 tier set getting nerfed

so I imagine its to mitigte some of that

warm marlin
swift tinsel
warm marlin

tbh kinda grossed out to see them get buffed too

maybe theyre giga beans on ptr

secondiaries are kinda whatever on crafted items

#

you're probably fine with mastery/vers/crit

#

its all essentially interchangeable between the three as long as you have an appreciable amount of mastery and vers

#

don't overthink it Surebud

charred sandal
#

U also get a shit ton from set in stone slots such as trinks, rings, belt and headpiece

swift tinsel
#

Default is mastery/vers craft, can do with crit if you really want

charred sandal
#

stacking vers increases value if u like stepping on evil circles of doom pepe_chad

rich stump
#

I even have 5% leech + 5% finisher leech and shield from node

#

during balades I can heal myself a noticibale amount

#

if only there were more sources of leech

warm marlin
#

well it looks like the new 2pc is significantly better huh

charred sandal
#

i love giving my healers ptsd by using cheat death to its full value

warm marlin
#

at least with predisorienting

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

saving vanish for the between-dance double coups feels nice

warm marlin
#

but my overcap man Madge

alpine wraith
#

it is very much better

warm marlin
#

highrolls in cds are gonna go crazy

#

4 coups in 5 eviscerates

swift tinsel
#

trading one gamba set for another

warm marlin
#

this iteration cast coup 6 times in 15 seconds garf

alpine wraith
#

this one is more gamba

#

the other one after all nerfs it was whatever

#

if you had 2 or 3 dances in a row you stacked it

swift tinsel
#

now we just gotta sandbag properly so no nerfs

#

dont even look at us

alpine wraith
#

nah dont worry we are like quite a bit behind the big bois still

#

but as always more tuning to come

heady shell
#

I haven't kept up with the changes, but with the 4 piece, do you not need to recast ss between Coups

swift tinsel
#

you need to build combo points to spend on the 2nd coup

heady shell
#

Oh i see

swift tinsel
#

I've been liking using vanish with premed on the ones you can't lean on shadowcraft

#

bc you're doing it for cdr anyways and I've been finding at least one time its useful between cd sets

alpine wraith
#

you can also vank some sht

#

remember sub is an old man spec outside cds

swift tinsel
#

yeah, its kinda hard to know exactly when you're gonna need to double coup outside

#

UB's be hittin'

alpine wraith
#

they have better wm

#

and they actually nimble

#

unless the second one doesnt because fuck you

#

but i cant try it

#

i go sleep zzz

swift tinsel
#

I think they do

alpine wraith
#

got mindcontrolled by horse girls

#

yea it should

swift tinsel
#

iirc from when I was checking nimble bugs

alpine wraith

like shadowstrike wm and goremaw

Testing out trinkets, whats it looking like we'll use in S3?

I Currently use signet over house since I don't have a myth one so it seems okay to take again

hazy breach
#

Netherprism

#

Signet is kinda terrible so i would suggest using almost anything else for sub

lilac stag
#

Heroic HoC > mythic signet

raven ginkgo
#

Just because of the stacking effect? or? Myth signet is giving me more mastery than HoC is

hazy breach
#

Well ye but signet has 2 min cd

#

So its effectively a 3 min cd

#

Whereas hoc is 90s and up for every burst

raven ginkgo
#

Fair point

lilac stag
#

We’re a 90 second spec. You’re giving up every other go

#

maybe in a 5 min sim they are close. Any m+ or different fight length HoC will be better

raven ginkgo

Roger that

I've been designated rogue for the main team whereas it was an alt before so just trying to get it nailed down

#

I can't figure out why or when I'd want to use vanish in sub rotation. I've seen people say it's for CDR but besides getting a 7pt shadow strike out of stealth what am I missing?

hazy breach

Its literally only the cp

#

Nothing else

#

Use it whenever you feel like that isnt during blades

quasi mantle

also useful as a stop or other mechanic avoider in mythic+

ah okay. I was driving myself crazy looking for some weird cdr interaction.

besides the typical spender

Our ptr notes today sum up how well development goes for the class

I enjoy current sub, just thought it needed the dmg dial turned a hair

I am swapping from lock though so being melee for more than M+ will be interesting

Oh there was one.

Just saw that

It wasnt mentioned in the notes but they did change our 2p

it is longer than the gcd

that other classes get gcd reduction from haste

like

no wonder we dont like haste

wtf

hazy breach

Well their gcds are 1.5s

#

Ours is 1s

chrome palm

right

charred sandal
#

if we cared about energy tics, rupture tics or gcd speed maybe we would like haste but the only thing that would maybe be good is the shadow tech gen

#

and we already got SnD for taht so

tepid trellis
#

Yeh well our gcd does not get lower with more haste

hazy breach
#

They could do a whole lot of stuff to make haste better, but im not so sure they want to

charred sandal
#

cuz i kinda feel faster ngl

tepid trellis
#

So more sht stacks

short radish

no patchnotes for rogues, this just means theyre really cooking something up right

charred sandal

makes sense, i thought it did reduce gcd but on hella dr compared to other classes

hazy breach

But idm much anyway

The idea is that were gated by our energy instead of by our globals

Hello, do you know how I can integrate this macro into my cut macro ?

/cast [stance:0] Kidney Shot; Cheap Shot

#showtooltip
/cast [@focus,exists,nodead,harm] "cut spell"
/stopmacro [@focus,exists,nodead,harm]
/focus target
/cleartarget
/targetenemy
/cast "cut spell"
/target focus
/clearfocus
/startattack

swift tinsel
#

hm, another build

north schooner
#

what are you even trying to achieve with this macro? it seems overengineered

icy pond
#

i want integrate the "stance:0" in

charred sandal
#

im guessing cheapshot on stealth kidney out of stealth... with extra steps to it?

north schooner
#

I mean what does you expect it to do. From a purpose pov

charred sandal
#

why u focusing and clearing target like 5 times tho

north schooner
#

that's why I am asking, I am fairly sure what they want can be achieved in 2-3 lines

charred sandal
#

ok i know what they want

#

they want a cheapshot on stealth, kidney out of stealth that can also focus kick...?

#

nvm idk OMEGAKEKW

north schooner
#

what I understood is that it KS/CS on focus if that exists, otherwise it uses the appropriate spell on a target which isn't the current target

#

but tbh I am trying to understand why you would KS/CS a random target if it's not your focus

charred sandal
#

u could have the stance conditional for stealth/nostealth on KS/CS and then use Modifier:shift for the kick on focus target maybe?

north schooner
#

"cut spell" is meant to be kick/interrupt then

icy pond
#

I currently have this macro for the kick.

I use another macro for my stuns, one that sends Kidney Shot when I'm out of stealth and Cheap Shot when I'm under dance/invis.

I'd like to import this into this cut macro

#

But I can't get the “stance” into it.

north schooner
#

so you want the KS/CS condition into your kick macro

icy pond
north schooner
#

/cast [@focus,nodead,harm, stance:0] Kidney Shot; [@focus,nodead,harm] Cheap Shot

icy pond
#

thank you i will test 🙂

charred sandal
#

/cast [stance:0] Kidney Shot ; Cheap Shot
/cast [@focus, modifier:shift] Kick

this one casts kidney shot outta stealth, cheapshot on stealth and focus kick if u press shift

north schooner
#

having exists in macro conditions like @focus isn't necessary fyi. It is implied

#

(nodead might also be overkill, I cannot remember if your focus remains on dead targets)

icy pond
#

I don't want a of modifier, not my goal, but u give me idea

north schooner
#

when you press the button and you don't have a focus, what do you want it to do? Because currently it will hit a random target around you in that case

icy pond
#

it's a comfort macro. when you tab you automatically target the cast target.

#

it works with the “kick”, I tested it with the kidney shoot it works.

I'd just like to include the notion of stance in it.

north schooner
#

instead of having this novel with focus to get your previous target back, you can do

/cast blabla
/targetlasttarget```
icy pond
charred sandal
#

or thats how i see it at least Surebud

north schooner
#

in any case if your goal is to adapt your kick macro to be used for KS/CS then just adding the extra stance conditional in the existing square brackets is enough (but you will need it for the "plain /cast in the middle of the macro too)

icy pond
north schooner
#

full thing would be this:

#showtooltip
/cast [@focus,nodead,harm, stance:0] Kidney Shot; [@focus,nodead,harm] Cheap Shot
/stopmacro [@focus,exists,nodead,harm]
/focus target
/cleartarget
/targetenemy
/cast [stance:0] Kidney Shot; Cheap Shot
/target focus
/clearfocus
/startattack```
icy pond
charred sandal

have u focused a target

which part doesn't work? CSing your focus?

So if you like it currently youll like it in s3

#

!wa

tribal blade
#

wait what

#

the 2pc sounds crazy now

#

so you legit need to proc UB half as much to give twice as many coups

#

wtf

hazy breach
#

Its on average the same amount of extra things (actually slightly less because youll end up wasting more of them as you can proc on 3 and overcap now)

tribal blade
#

yeah i just realized

hazy breach
#

But its concentrated into your CDs more

i'm stupid

Idk why people started the goremaw meme

damn this is actually a gamba set

I'm gonna try and run stuff this weekend to get a better feel for it

wish they couldve changed cold blood so i could try fb assa but

alas

hoping we see at least one or two changes to stuff like CB and EB in the next couple weeks

some very small QoL changes to those two especially would go a long way

yeah

#

its not worth holding coup with new tier right?

#

i find sometimes ill not have fazed up if i hold

tribal blade
#

mm interesting if you actually would just play sub as a capped class

chrome palm
#

i think part of it

#

is ptr tanks pulling very small

tribal blade
#

mm good point

#

sub most likely is gonna have the same issues as this season

#

since this tier set just makes you even more hard capped

tepid trellis
#

we are about to start bp'ing at 3 targets during blades

chrome palm
tribal blade
#

that's kinda fried

#

good thing we have nimble huh

tepid trellis
#

they could just u know

#

make it work with shit

#

and we wouldnt have this problem

chrome palm
#

watch them buff it to 75% instead of fixing blades/fazed interaction

#

we outlaw now

tribal blade
#

what if they softcapped nimble and removed the hard cap

#

all these spells getting big dmg buffs is worrying me

swift tinsel
#

If you don’t backstab for 20+ sec you’re guaranteed to have fazed when you build after flag+rupture

chrome palm
#

oh for flag yeah

#

in m+ feels like

#

cdr is kinda crazy

#

you can get away with sending some pretty late dances

#

and prism makes it al ittle less punishing

swift tinsel
#

Thats a fun prospect

# swift tinsel I tried holding with flag ~20-25 left on cd and it felt pretty good

i'm also experimenting with it.
I notice if i use one dance between flag, there's no issues with cds being up, but i also only use one dance.

if i use 2 dances the cooldown for the second charge of dance is around 40-50 seconds when flag comes off cooldown, so in order to not having to use 1 or 2 eviscerates outside of dance while in flag you have to wait for like 15 seconds to use flag the second time.

If we continue using dances between flag windows and having to wait all the time with flag off cooldown we can miss out on an entire flag+SB if not careful.

#

i guess it all depends on the length of the fight

#

i just noticed you were talking about coup, so my message might not be relevant at all lol...

I may have misread but that was my interpretation of it

hollow spear
#

Backstabbing is allowed imo

#

As Ryldd says, we have the sectec insurance

#

If you have the cdr in a good spot, it's better to start stacking sht for our flag window I guess

runic trail
#

Waiting for the tech where we're not allowed to auto attack 20 seconds before flag uglyassdog

hollow spear
#

It's pretty straightforward ig: as long as our cdr isn't good enough to consistently double dance between flags, any excess cdr will be used to hold and prepare for a juicy flag window

#

As long as there's no other new external factor that's incentivising or punishing

good morning, how are things?

runic trail
#

I had a nosebleed in the middle of my drive in to work so, yeah. It's one of those days garf

#

How goes it for you?

hollow spear
#

Ugh, nosebleeds are such a mess

#

From what I read here, people seem to be quite happy with the 2p change

#

There's still the problem with overcapping eb, but they'd have to fix that differently I guess

runic trail
#

I... Don't understand the trickster hero talent well enough to understand it so I'm just going with what they're saying.

hollow spear
#

I'd like a baseline capstone change

runic trail
#

But the change seems decent

hollow spear
#

Higher max stacks, like 6 or 8

#

Might be op though

bleak night
#

sounds good to me

warm marlin
#

If the escalating change happens the tier set will be very strong imo

haughty mural
#

Isn’t it already right now ?

#

2pc going from 6% to 13%

#

Or smth like that I remember eleem saying

warm marlin
#

ye but like nerf territory potentially

haughty mural
warm marlin
#

Looks like most of them are around 20% for full 4p atp

haughty mural
#

S2 flashbacks

warm marlin
#

I think ours should be around there as well

#

with current setup

haughty mural
#

If our 2p jumped to 13% how much is the 4p alone ?
