If u run crit/mast yep, useless out of cds

plush roost
#

Backstab because its more damage than not pressing any buttons whatsoever. The 3 dry eviscerates you'd do in that 15 second window coming up to flag don't do a lot of damage compared to cds and losing tier set before cds is a significant loss.The sht stacks are just a bonus.

maiden oar
#

was more comparing backstab to rupture spam

#

since i figure sht stacks > rupture right

#

oh also is rupture > evisc for this same reason if you need the cdr?

chrome palm
#

You can overcap on rupture by casting it after flag

#

Shouldnt conflict with sht

#

You also shouldn’t need the cdr if you’re holding dance properly, unless you’re talking about keys where you might send dance really late for a certain event

runic trail
#

I'm waiting on the tech where we hit nothing for 20seconds before flag

#

Back to the boss, no abilities

vestal escarp
#

peak tbh

runic trail
#

Charging our spirit bomb

chrome palm
#

This is as close to that as it’ll come lol

runic trail
#

Just need Eleem to cook some meth

chrome palm
#

Have you done high rookeries as sub

#

Legit afk

#

For longer than 20s just backstab

#

Peak

plush roost
#

Did we ever confirm if its a gain on ptr for 7+ shadowtech stacks into cds with coup ready?

runic trail
vestal escarp
#

you've done your job if you do 0 dmg on shield

plush roost
#

So you're not wasting escalating blades

#

Or just L escalating

runic trail
#

I just do weekly 10s if I need vault and that's as far as I go m+ wise

chrome palm
#

To be fair you can probably mega hold even then if you’ll have flag

#

For fun

plush roost
#

Someones gotta hear me out, 4 seconds before cds, symbols and get some sht stacks before cds and send with enough time on symbols to maintain the entire cd set am i fried or am i gigabrain 🤔

#

*on ptr

chrome palm
#

You lose more uptime than 4s because of inevitability

#

Unless you mean at max cp

plush roost
#

Ye at max keep playing backstab soup for 3-4 globals

maiden oar
#

my thought process was rupture spam means i lose sht because i have to generate more cp

chrome palm
#

Nah just keep rupture up and always use it after flag

maiden oar
#

ok ty

chrome palm
#

And yes it does make you lose sht so you have the right idea

maiden oar
#

i will try backstab / sht farm 20s before flag and see how it is

#

swapping off sin to familiarize myself w sub for next season now that the spec i play really doesnt matter

chrome palm
#

As long as you can double dance and have sec tech <~10s you don’t need to worry about cdr

maiden oar
#

ty

chrome palm
#

For flag that is

maiden oar
chrome palm
#

20s too long though I think

#

That was a meme

maiden oar
#

ah ok

chrome palm
#

This is kinda feelycraft but

#

I do 15s

#

Or

#

If you have vanish and winning streak stacks and 2x eb you can just purely auto at 0 cp

vestal escarp
chrome palm
#

And vanish premed before flag

#

That is ryldd tech

maiden oar
#

that makes sense

#

im just aggressively vanishing for cdr but i probably have enough cdr anyway

chrome palm
#

I don’t think it’s supposed to make a big difference though

#

Doing that is perfectly fine too

runic trail
chrome palm
#

Vanish is not a bad defensive outside of dance too

#

Vanish for cdr is also good

#

Helps keep fw too

#

If you’re eviscing

maiden oar
#

yeah i was using it for fw before flag in situations where i have to look the boss in the eye due to mechanics

chrome palm
#

Sprocketmonger starege

maiden oar
#

or is it like actually pointless to worry about

chrome palm
#

Probably pointless

maiden oar
#

ah ok

chrome palm
#

I just look at it as

maiden oar
#

i gotta get used to pre disorienting also its really annoying

chrome palm
#

If I have vanish and ws and eb

#

Might as well get the extra sht stacks

#

Yeah it is

#

If you play the first dance in raid

#

It’s even better

maiden oar
#

i was going to look into that

chrome palm
#

Anything <5 min

#

Also

maiden oar
chrome palm
#

Pacemaker outperforms hotline with tfd I noticed

maiden oar
#

oh ok i dont have hotline

#

first season raiding in wow so i killed mugger late and just extended til ce

chrome palm
#

W

maiden oar
#

maybe i can get it soon

chrome palm
#

Just get pacemaker tbh

maiden oar
#

yeah i have that

chrome palm
#

Oh nice

maiden oar
#

next season i will frag out of my mind for sure

chrome palm
#

Ce on first season is good work

maiden oar
#

ty ty

#

im ffxiv refugee so im kind of cheating

#

not authentic noob guy

chrome palm
#

I got my first ce last season, and I started raiding in || 7.3 ||

maiden oar
#

well i guess

#

it depends on how serious you took it alot of my friends who played xiv just casually raided and when they randomly decided to tryhard they were insane gamers

chrome palm
#

Turns out if you actually apply to guilds, you can do things

runic trail
#

First CE this season but I only got dragged kicking and screaming into mythic raiding last season

chrome palm
#

Went from never pulling a last boss on mythic to just getting it on reclear with a new guild lol

maiden oar
#

for mugzee do you think its worth overcapping rupture on the boss to rupture rocketeers

#

or does that not matter

chrome palm
#

Nah

#

But you can hold dance

#

After he does his jump

maiden oar
#

i progged that fight on havoc for raid buff reasons and i tried to reclear on sin and i could not spatter the goons through the wall for some reason

#

so i think its a sub angle

#

oh ok

chrome palm
#

That’s a tank diff

maiden oar
#

ok yeah definitely a sub angle then

chrome palm
#

Sub can sec tech goons apparently

maiden oar
#

no way...

chrome palm
#

So I’ve heard

#

I keep

#

Getting sent into the cage

chrome palm
#

To just auto attack the goon

#

Because I’m not sending cds on it lol

maiden oar
#

hehe

#

is it bad to send a non flag dance on the goon

#

i feel like its fine if it doesnt mess with cdr right

chrome palm
#

For my timings yes

maiden oar
#

oh ok

chrome palm
#

It never lines up like that for me

maiden oar
#

i see i should look at timings then

chrome palm
#

Well if you push at 3 min

#

You would never dance without blades for cages

#

You get flag after 1st cage

#

Skip 2nd and get flag at the beginning of 3rd cage

maiden oar
#

i see

chrome palm
#

Last week I had to dance a goon beside it was me and a brew master alone

#

Feelsbadman

maiden oar
#

in my head i was last flag w 5m potion because slow killtime

#

so maybe i get to dance a goon

chrome palm
#

Yeah I’ve been doing that but I’m gonna stop

#

I’m just gonna send early and pot mid flag I think

#

Pray for a sec tech cleave

maiden oar
#

idk what time exactly the last rocket guy hops over post gaols

#

but yeah maybe lining that up is gaming

chrome palm
#

Could be

#

He takes a minute though

maiden oar
#

yea hes shy

chrome palm
maiden oar
#

ty btw appreciate wisdom

#

Any pros/cons for sub vs assa for gally mythic?

Writing here because deathstalker assa makes me wanna puke (but i still play it for most content...)

runic trail
#

But at this point in the season the adds kind of fall over, I never really swapped mark off of boss for the most part.

maiden oar
#

sin is way better at boss damage but worse at killing adds

#

depends on what your group struggles with and what your tanks are doing

#

if gally isnt positioned well in p1 sub feels alot less impactful

#

and same goes for people exploding adds before you can finish bursting them

#

but if you have all boss damage guys then sub can go insane

hazy breach
#

Play what you find the most fun imo

tepid trellis
#

as long as it isnt outlaw

#

then yep

tribal blade
#

we have so much gear and raid buff at this point and gally isn't a dps check at all

#

so play w/e makes you happy

maiden oar
#

but i agree it doesnt matter too much in terms of clearing

tepid trellis
#

boss was a joke

tribal blade
#

watching liquid raw dog the final what, 20%?

maiden oar
#

i do think sub on gally is infinitely more fun if you get to blow up all the adds in p1

#

but if you dont then yea

lilac stag
#

new pain unlocked. Reclearing mugzee with 5 new people. Somehow raid dps went down in 3 weeks. garf_sit

runic trail
#

Its no longer a reclear at that point, its reprog

lilac stag
#

we had 2 missing, and our warrior quit. So yep. Reprog pain.

tribal blade
#

that's a lot of new people to put on mugzee

#

1/4 of your raid hasn't seen the fight yet OwO

tepid trellis
#

tbf at this point

#

mugzee dont really do a whole lot of mechanics xD

runic trail
lilac stag
#

soaks and mines and actually killing jail adds. More than enough for people that didn’t prog on it.

tribal blade
#

my raid team is like a big family so that never happens to us

maiden oar
lilac stag
#

also using defensives. Kekw

#

round 2 Thursday. kekdog

#

ended up back on assa. We needed the execute dmg.

tepid trellis
vale pine
#

lol

lilac stag
#

Stealthi needs to raid later tier CE just once.

vale pine
#

you overestimate peoples ability to follow instructions

runic trail
tepid trellis
#

i guess i just expect people to have above room temp

#

iq

#

EU temps

#

not NA

alpine wraith
#

likely they dont use liquid but maybe they could have a second screen with the map or tactics

hollow snow
#

get tariffed bozo

lilac stag
#

the IQ is there. It’s the multitasking of doing dmg, moving, using defensives and knowing where to go.

tepid trellis
#

then the IQ is not there

lilac stag
#

One a good day, you get 3/4

tepid trellis
#

if you cant follow a fcking map

#

u dont even have to press anything

#

just go the mark

runic trail
#

All I know is, I go to moon, life is easy

tepid trellis
#

stand still

#

jobs done

lilac stag
#

you need to watch Max do the RL stuff with a RWL guild.

#

will give you some perspective dracthyr_love

tepid trellis
#

i mean i run into people in wow that im surprised if they dont have to manually remind themselves to breath

#

so

runic trail
#

The RWL folk are in RWL for a reason. I say this as a RFWL player

#

We ain't the best but we try

tepid trellis
#

i think what i would count as trying, is not the same as you just put it

lilac stag
#

in general you’re putting you best team out on prog. The skill of your bench is going to not necessarily be the same. Be it overall skill, preparedness, whatever. You’re quite happy you’re not canceling raid for roster boss.

#

any fight that needs self preservation is usually a struggle garf_sit

tepid trellis
#

cuz to me trying actually means being fully prepared for a fight, so you dont get lost in a heart shaped room with a map telling you where to go

runic trail
tepid trellis
#

well yeah

runic trail
#

So you had people flapping and not knowing which one to follow

tepid trellis
#

it accounts for people getting the gaol spawns

runic trail
#

Which led to scuffed gaols

tepid trellis
#

its needs to correctly place 4 gaols, make sure all the assigned immune soakers are in 1-2

#

so yeah people will get shifted around

lilac stag
#

gaols work best when no one is dead. Got someone dead and all of the sudden the plan gets turned to chaos.

tepid trellis
#

you can have 2-4 people dead

lilac stag
#

adjusting on the fly is a struggle for many

tepid trellis
#

before it goes to full shit

runic trail
tepid trellis
#

im an react on the fly person

#

im fine with playing fully on reaction

runic trail
#

I can't do that, hence why I'm in a low rank guild

#

I know my limitation, that and panicking

lilac stag
#

most people can’t

#

Not at our rankings

tepid trellis
#

people in wr 50

#

cant either

lilac stag
#

Those that can are usually the ones insta assigned mechanics.

runic trail
#

Tbf our guild also had to resort to using a ret pally to throw bandit coins, you... Can't trust us to do things

lilac stag
#

I put r3 vantus runes in bank. Everyone was told to use them. Want to guess how many didn’t? kekw

so you can tell them to stop being idiots

runic trail
#

I wouldn't mind trying out a higher wr guild but the extra pressure might not be the best for me

At times you get told once and then figure it out approach backfires. Haha

50% of all comments on wowhead are locks

tribal blade

it's not a warlock problem, it's the fact that in a spell cleave comp there are a few mandatory specs like boomy and mage that have to go in there

in a way there's more pressure playing with limited time

Let’s manifest a rog dev first

For a nasty 75% buff to all damage

I want a "skip RP" button for all these old raids

Are you even transmog farming if you’re not rping the event?

#

Soon that’s all rogue will be, a rp class no dmg

If we buff black powder, smoke bomb is allowed in pve too

rich stump
#

low key smoke bomb would have some op usses in m+

swift tinsel

could be Mind Soothe but worse for your lungs

merry agate

would actually be kinda sick

No sub changes and watching game 5 of flyquest in the same week? This is my darkest timeline

I’m here to full doom until we are saved by the mages

I need a win man 😭

The last time Realz was typing in here, he didn't send and a couple minutes later, our accidental 10% buff got nuked

#

So be careful what you wish for

fierce wigeon
#

Need a new rogue dev

#

That plays the game and class smh

clever delta
#

doubt many of them play the game

#

in their free time

lilac stag
#

and if they did why would they play rogue, have you not seen the state the class is in?

#

smh my head

clever delta
#

true actually

carmine portal
#

Haven't played sub this Season, wondering if Goremaw's bite is ever useful?

swift tinsel
#

nope

carmine portal
#

Is it a case of: The talent itself is bad, Or: Other talents are simply better.

swift tinsel
#

its bad

dry plank
#

it conflicts with other talents and became useless

swift tinsel
#

tuned low and the energy for finishers doesn't really help much/at all

carmine portal
#

o7 cheers!

north schooner
hollow spear
#

Can't believe that Goremaw didn't turn out to be bis with the new tier set

#

Smh

north schooner
#

it will be next ptr patch

swift tinsel
#

I think I committed a bit to hard to that bit lol

lilac stag
bleak night
#

wtf

#

i was told goremaw was going to be meta

#

i cant believe this

warm marlin
#

#goremawbeliever

north schooner
#

it is meta if you make it meta

honest void
lilac stag
#

Goremaw just needs to show up in top 3 parses week 1 and it’s go time.

haughty mural
#

Im here for it

short radish
haughty mural
#

We just need to go over to the warlock discord and ask them how to do it properly sandbag

#

Or Altered Time

#

Since they made them give arcane 2 buffs in a row

vale pine
haughty mural
swift tinsel
#

make it affect sectech too

vale pine
#

oh true

#

actually thematical

slate marlin
#

Then u see storm energy cost

swift tinsel
#

we just completely ignore nimble at that point

#

unless they add that into the fold and change the name to Nimble Shuriken Combo

hazy breach
#

Which is why pretty much all energy talents (that arent shadowcraft, because thats the reason we have so much energy in the first place) are doomed to be bad

#

Tea seems pretty good for big aoe next tier, but its macroed with dance so the energy is pretty much almost wasted, its just used for the mastery.

lilac stag
glacial orbit
#

how is sub looking for s3

hazy breach
#

As Sectechs damage falls of at higher target count (because its softcapped at 5 targets instead of 8 like all the other effects)

lilac stag
hazy breach
glacial orbit
#

damn

hazy breach
#

Pretty good in raid, probably mid in keys

lilac stag
#

Goremaw gaming s3

#

Maybe

warm marlin
#

goremaw sucks unfortunately

hazy breach
#

Unless they kneecap shadowcraft its never going to be good

lilac stag
#

Blasphemy

glacial orbit
hazy breach
#

Well subs new tier is good

tight sparrow
#

No flag gaming

hazy breach
#

Assas tier is really bad

tight sparrow
#

Soon tm

hazy breach
#

Outlaw is unplayable as usual because downtime and damage amp phases

glacial orbit
lilac stag
#

assa tier will get the last week treatment.

glacial orbit
#

ye that's what i expect \

#

they will buff all sin numbers by 200% of something

#

a day before patch

lilac stag
#

Outlaw will complain muh uptime

#

Sub will get tier nerf

slate marlin
#

sub will be the go to, then assa will get a buff and everyone will swap to assa

lilac stag

#

All while 3 mage specs, fdk, 2 hunters and dev run wild

glacial orbit

didn't mm get nuked ?

lilac stag
#

never

hunters

bleak night
#

they tapped its aoe

#

with bleak powder

#

its aoe isnt what made it good in raid

glacial orbit
#

insane

graceful osprey
glacial orbit
#

another season of dev and mm being 20% ahead of every other spec in the game

hazy breach
lilac stag
#

FDK will be up there with them. Arcane as well. 🔮

hazy breach
#

Just like black powder does at more than 8

glacial orbit
#

fdk was meta in s1

#

why meta again

hazy breach
#

Rework

glacial orbit
lilac stag
#

rework

graceful osprey
swift tinsel
#

they got super streamlined too

glacial orbit
#

fdk s1
udk s2
fdk s3

#

tww = dk expac

swift tinsel
#

the cognitive dissonance will make their heads explode

lilac stag

Waiting for amz to be cracked

hazy breach
obtuse phoenix
#

how muich of subtlety's dam is phys?

hazy breach
#

But alas, no such luck

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

we get our aoe fixes in 11.2.5

graceful osprey
#

And think of the big numbers dopamine

hazy breach
#

Just raising it from 5 to 8 (which is what all of our other spells are capped at) would be roughly 25% more damage on it

#

Its weird how its so random what spells are capped at what target counts

hazy breach
#

Nimble - Hard 8
BP - Soft 8
Sectech - Soft 5

Crimson Tempest - Soft 8
Arterial Precision - Hard 8
Caustic Spatter - Soft 5
Poison Bomb - Completely uncapped

#

Like why

swift tinsel
#

dartboard

lilac stag
#

Assa ST spec. peophammer

swift tinsel
#

that's just where the darts landed

warm marlin

clearly a lot of thought went into it

Tooltips gonna Blizzard

hazy breach
#

From what ive heard its intended to be 8, but for some reason tooltip says 5

haughty mural
#

Tooltips wrong

hollow spear
#

Me playing sub even when sin is meta - Hard

haughty mural
#

Can’t be blizzard

clever delta
vale pine
hazy breach
#

Wait hol up

haughty mural
#

Nimble tooltip also still not showing every ability it works on right ?

hollow spear
#

Also true

ripe flame
hazy breach
#

But that got removed so problem fixed itself

slate marlin
clever delta
#

i have fun playing sub rn, only thing which fucking with my brain is current tier set

haughty mural
#

Thought gwb would also work

clever delta
#

cant wait for new

haughty mural
#

But true ER gonzo

hazy breach
hollow spear
#

Yeah, nothing makes me less hard than losing tier set before flag

haughty mural
hazy breach
#

But also even if it would work, it does shadow damage

#

So it would only do like 42% cleave

haughty mural
#

What a Spaghetti our spec is

hollow spear
#

I'm not unhappy with sub for sure

#

It definitely was worse in s1 gameplay wise

#

With rs bug and coup charge

hazy breach
#

I think sub plays really well in ST

#

Which is why its such a shame that the AoE is a bit jank, when it could just not be with very small adjustments

hollow spear
#

And since I don't push m+, the aoe is good enough

clever delta
#

i like the eleem effort

#

to push it as much as possible to be noticed by certain person

hollow spear
#

I'd still like aoe to be satisfying ofc

lilac stag
#

remove nimble for that

clever delta
#

let me press BP when its baseline finally

lilac stag
#

Bring back combo

hollow spear
#

Just copy paste Eleems cook

#

It's some pretty tame stuff

swift tinsel
#

even just bugfixes for nimble go a long way

hazy breach
lilac stag
#

make dance the actual cd

clever delta
#

they are always force to work on other things

#

thats not something new

lilac stag
#

pillow talk

hollow spear
#

He's forced to work in the salt mines

clever delta
#

im pretty sure he is pretty fast with fixing bugs, as you can see in past.. issue is they never have time for it

swift tinsel
#

the devs yearn for the mines

hollow spear
#

Maybe he'll listen to the guy on the forums

swift tinsel
lilac stag
north schooner
#

make mafic the rogue dev

hollow spear
#

I'm ready for a round of surfing

clever delta
#

nah

#

its just for them its too small issue

clever delta
#

its not affecting gameplay or anything

#

so they dont care

north schooner
lilac stag
#

rs was impacting gameplay

#

They don’t care unless it’s positive

swift tinsel
clever delta
#

but when you start spamming rupture as dps gain, than they step up quickly :D:D

north schooner
#

people have to pay normally

hazy breach
hollow spear
#

They do get to care half a day every three months

clever delta
#

most ppl dont even know about it

#

i would not know if im not here all the time

lilac stag
#

Or they care for outlaw and let the sub fox stay non-existent. garf

hollow spear
#

True

#

Ignorance is bliss, as usual

lilac stag
#

most people don’t know about it because no one plays the spec.

hazy breach
#

Well ye my point is that nimble reads like it would be the best to use until more than 8 targets

#

But its actually better to BP at 3 targets with blades, and 5 without

#

Assuming all of the targets have FW

swift tinsel
#

the fact that that isn't the case has bothered me all xpac

clever delta
#

what

lilac stag
#

and whatever QA department existed is now just run by copilot

clever delta
#

or you can play DS and BP all the time

#

just for fun

hazy breach
#

Well no

north schooner
hollow spear
#

Wait what

hazy breach
#

Because you'd want to strike a new target when you have 1 stack left of the mark

#

So to not proc darkest night

hollow spear
#

Where's the 3 targets with blades coming from

hazy breach
hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

blades doesn't nimble

clever delta
#

so now we BP from 5 targets ?

#

and 3 with blades?

hazy breach
#

Find weaknesses*

#

Not targets

hollow spear
#

I think I asked a couple days ago

clever delta
#

bro im confused

swift tinsel
#

I think imma code my plater mod to fw instead of rupture for sub

hollow spear
#

But does the target selection account for find weakness

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

ez to see w/o needing a weakaura that is super heavy

hollow spear
#

Because if there's ten targets and three have find weakness

#

How do I know that the ones with find weakness get hit

upper narwhal
#

It’s very silly that the cleaving Evis isn’t just better every time on 8 or less targets

swift tinsel
#

yep

warm marlin
clever delta
#

idk

#

i willl just wait for guide at this point

hollow spear
#

I could swear I had a thought that made sense a week ago

clever delta
#

to read what im suppoise to do

hazy breach
#

Nothing changed really

#

Only thing thats different is storming once inbetween your coups during blades

#

Which is also silly

hollow spear
#

0.7% gain from that, still cannot believe it

hazy breach
#

So most cooldown dances are gonna be 1 backstab, 1 storm and 1 strike

bleak night
#

based

swift tinsel
#

inc 12 danse stacks

north schooner
#

perfectly balanced

warm marlin
#

tfd stonks up

hazy breach
#

We're not beating the piano spec allegations boys

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

I'll need to do my warmups pre-raid

clever delta
#

what timer ?

warm marlin
#

i swear the vanish thing makes tfd crazy

hazy breach
#

Standard 5

clever delta
#

damn

#

thats sick

#

i actually love it

#

ngl

#

i dont hate on that storm

swift tinsel
#

is that natty pull or with pre-sod/pre-disorient

clever delta
#

i dont hate on backsteb either

warm marlin
#

has to be predisorient

hazy breach
#

But im kind of a prism hater now

hollow spear
#

Didn't you say vanish + pre dis was already making tfd better on live @warm marlin

hazy breach
#

Because it doesnt stack up enough to hold

#

So its just a 90s trinket you cant use on pull or after you've died

#

In most cases

swift tinsel
#

flexy for m+

warm marlin
#

i just sent it this week

hollow spear
#

Slacker

clever delta
#

btw

hazy breach
warm marlin
#

but look how early you get the cb sectec

#

this is first dance of the fight on cauldron

swift tinsel
#

need to see how hard they nerf halls trinket

hollow spear
#

That's crazy

swift tinsel
#

I'm kinda sold on sigil or antenna

#

for 2nd trinket/passive option

clever delta
#

whats the dance combo with new tier set? Sectech first into coup coup?

hazy breach
#

As it would be quite the clutter, but maybe

clever delta
#

or we sand coup first sectech coup?

hazy breach
#

Same as now, sectech first

hollow spear
#

I don't think most players will bother with pre disorient

warm marlin
clever delta
#

even with coup ready?

warm marlin
#

so probably not worth

hazy breach
#

Doable, but clutters up the APL

warm marlin
#

won't it never meet that condition unless you hard put it in the predisorient thing

#

at least on opener

hazy breach
#

Correct

#

But ye i didnt

swift tinsel
#

is the vanish thing just old opener?

hazy breach
#

Yes

#

But its not worth unless you have disorienting strikes up

swift tinsel
#

ah

#

makes sense

hazy breach
pliant topaz
hollow spear
#

I mean, he's playing with the nutgod

lilac stag
vestal escarp
#

Interesting that the 4p leads to a lot of coups casts that end outside dance

#

leading to effective dps loss over the evis

hollow spear
#

I mean, they wouldn't be there without the set, so it's kinda priced in

vestal escarp
#

can we ask if craft refunds at your sht count regardless when 4p is active

lilac stag
warm marlin
#

yep

#

that one is maybe a bit more sus though

lilac stag
#

I go back and forth in my head on it

#

I like the TFD opener

#

and trying to factor in movement and storm I bet it’s close

warm marlin
#

i didnt have predisorient for the kill since we had a cuff bomb blow up on our 1 wipe

lilac stag
#

but I’m also a TFD supporter

warm marlin
#

probably not worth without it

lilac stag
#

should put a turnip out

warm marlin
#

they took away our indoor dummies man

lilac stag
#

I hadn’t tried it there

warm marlin
#

i farmed the love fool just for them to fix it literally the next day

lilac stag
#

bummer

vestal escarp
#

yeah they took that out right after valentines

lilac stag
#

must have missed it with all the rogue blue posts.

rich stump
#

Is the 1 Hour tricks talent bugged? I've had awful aggro problems this season while pull is gathering

patent lichen
lilac stag
#

you can’t cast it and then attack something 2 minutes later

slate marlin
#

theres a slight delay between activating it and aggro being redirected

rich stump
#

so what's the point of the 1hour durations then?

slate marlin
#

that you don thave to press it for an hour

lilac stag
#

it works. You just have to start it like you normally would.

#

lol

#

It’s not a start before the key turn buff

rich stump
#

no I mean key starts, I cast on tank, buff is active, then mob is following tank and then cheat deaths procs

lilac stag
#

you waited too long to hit something more than likely.

#

Cast on tank. Wait a second. Hit storm

rich stump
#

i'll try that then

lilac stag
#

pretend you’re casting tricks as assa for the first go

#

then it should be good until you die

rich stump
#

I never noticed but does it need to be cast on tank again after he dies? I've had some whacky pulls where tank dies and I am the only one alive but mobs follow tank to spawn lol

inland galleon
#

!wa

haughty mural
#

Predesorient and vanish

#

Backstab > storm > strike

#

What a timeline

swift tinsel
#

collecting the degen Infinity Stones

shrewd lantern
#

pretty sure sometimes if tank is afk enough

warm marlin
#

I have also become aware that it wasn’t actually stance delay bricking my vanishes but the fact that if you press an ability during gcd in vanish your auto attack will break the stealth garf

shrewd lantern
#

you can get proximity aggro

#

which tricks does not redirect

north schooner
warm marlin
#

No

#

Melee abilities do it by default no?

bleak night
#

should do yeah

#

start attack is only for stuff like bte

#

at least afaik

warm marlin
#

It does seem to be doing it much less since I put stopattack in vanish but I’m pretty sure that’s baseline behaviour

north schooner
#

it stops attacking when you vanish by default ye

clever delta
#

what if we play that 2min decay trinket with prism?

swift tinsel
#

you can make it work

#

it's not ideal

#

if you're saving prism for 3min burst you just don't have a trinket for 1:30 flag

#

otherwise you just alternate and play forge like a 3min

hazy breach
#

I suspect people will play it despite it simming poorly

#

Just like in s3 of df

swift tinsel
#

if there's a fight where it makes sense (I haven't looked at any timers or anything yet) I can see it being an option but I don't anticipate it being the go-to

clever delta
#

i just hate not having opener trinket

#

im playing the new 90 trinket tonigh since they added it to vendor

hazy breach
#

With current tuning nothing is even remotely close to the cursed idol from Halls

clever delta
#

thats not on vendor isnt

swift tinsel
#

nope

hazy breach
clever delta
#

yeah

swift tinsel
#

at least not as of yesterday

#

the dungeon trinkets are doubled up on the vendor for some of them

#

so I'm assuming they scuffed adding them lol

bleak night
#

what

#

no

#

that doesnt sound like something blizzard would let slip by qa

swift tinsel
#

putting the Ass in Assurance

slate marlin
#

havent been paying too much attention to ptr, what trinkets are hot apart from idol?

hollow spear
#

Prism ig

#

Even tho Eleem is our resident prism hater

hazy breach
#

Mostly just pacemaker or the execute one

hollow spear
#

Prism will probably live or die by specific mythic fight timings if I had to guess

hazy breach
#

Nothing really important aside from the on-use

swift tinsel
#

pacemaker better than antenna?

hazy breach
slate marlin
#

oh floodgate is on rotation, forgot about it

hazy breach
#

But theyre all kinda the same

hollow spear
#

What was your problem with it? That it doesn't stack for 3 min?

hazy breach
#

Ye

swift tinsel
#

ah, I didn't dig into uptime on antenna too much but iirc it was more per 1 stack than pacemaker

hollow spear
#

That's true, but I believe there will be quite some cases were we hold flag for a bit

#

Which should make it more valuable than 90s trinkets at least

#

I personally dig the flexibility it gives us

swift tinsel
#

you just kinda have to do weird shit to get it to line up for your later burst window

#

if you don't want to be sitting on max stacks for about half a minute

#

so you're only getting the damage proc out of it for potentially over half the fight depending on timers

slate marlin
#

why cant i find cursed idol trinket

#

am i a boomer while on google now?

swift tinsel
#

cursed stone idol

#

might need to be in ptr section of wowhead

slate marlin
#

found it by name ty

#

didnt see it on wowhead post

swift tinsel
#

its not listed

slate marlin
#

oh ok i was losing my mind

swift tinsel
#

its in the dungeon journal on ptr but not on the trinket vendor

#

so idk if they just forgot to look at the journal or what

slate marlin
#

No clue, but i cant log in to ptr since i cancelled my sub

swift tinsel
#

they were probably busy scrambling for more void dh bait for another article

slate marlin
#

Lmao

#

i hope dh gets a void spec tho, would be cool
