What

swift tinsel
#

that's like saying you're happy with a raw steak bc the chef won't cook it bc at least you got something

hazy breach
#

Shadowed finishers do get cleaved, they just get reduced by armor when they shouldnt

void ocean
swift tinsel
#

ignore the filet on the other tables

#

if they leave ours out in the sun long enough maybe it will cook before too many people notice the smell

void ocean
#

u dont go further than medium rare anyway so

#

(i hope)

lilac stag
void ocean
#

oooh

#

i tho bbq is a republican thing

lilac stag
#

an inlaw went from enjoying med rare to all of the sudden wanting well done. re: the dufus in chief

void ocean
#

good lord

#

why would someone eat charcoal

lilac stag
#

dressed with katsup

#

🤮

steel zinc
#

What gear the mob has?

hazy breach
#

Mobs have 30% damage reduction from armor

steel zinc
#

like every mob no matter what type?

hazy breach
#

So lets assume no fazed and no fw.
Phys evis does 100 damage and cleaves 65 damage
Shadow evis does 100 damage cleaves 45.5 damage, because its reduced by 30%

hazy breach
steel zinc
#

ohhh

swift tinsel
#

yep, stellar design

steel zinc
#

imagine explaining that to someone who plays the spec brand new

swift tinsel
#

imagine armor still being a factor in pve

void ocean
#

bring back arp

hazy breach
#

You can also just say that it does less damage than it should

swift tinsel
#

warriors sundering again, we get expose armor, arp bis stat

steel zinc
tepid trellis
void ocean
#

make dismantle pve

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

too big to fail

hazy breach
#

And make for more satsifying numbers

alpine wraith
#

maybe they will nightstalker it

#

yea i hate it so much

#

maybe we need to do some omegarant

alpine wraith
#

that makes me have an idea today i will rant like no one does

swift tinsel
#

I might hop back on ptr and file individual bug reports for each bug again

tepid trellis
tepid trellis
#

once a fcking again

keen dome
#

Nooo, this season will be good. We'll be strong, noooo

upper narwhal
#

🏄‍♂️ 🏄‍♀️

steel zinc
tepid trellis
#

no

#

it was with SL

alpine wraith
swift tinsel
#

its problematic baseline

steel zinc
#

really?

#

SL?

tepid trellis
#

yes

swift tinsel
#

yar

alpine wraith
#

shadowed began in SL yes

#

the scourge

steel zinc
#

finality was then legion or?

alpine wraith
#

yea

steel zinc
#

ok

alpine wraith
#

legion was big DFA numba

steel zinc
#

mixed them up

#

yeah best spell dfa

alpine wraith
#

BFA was omegabit crit

swift tinsel
#

then sl was finality leggo

alpine wraith
#

let me link the clip it is my moment

swift tinsel
#

df put it in the tree

alpine wraith
#

jk

tepid trellis
#

shadowed was just called Evis rank 2 and blackpowder rank 2

alpine wraith
#

man draenor was such a good exp

#

ahead of its time

#

making all finishers useful imagine

#

now we dont even press snd and rupture is so boring

lilac stag
#

imagine having a dev

#

or one that actually has time for the specs

alpine wraith
#

we didnt deserve sephuz

swift tinsel
#

ours went to fel hammer for milk and cigarettes and never made it there

graceful osprey
#

Rogue dev? Never heard of them

swift tinsel
#

dh neglected too lol

lilac stag
alpine wraith
#

but also legion was a crackpipe of changes

swift tinsel
#

is that old rogue dev?

alpine wraith
#

i really disliked many iterations inside that expansion

shut jay
#

when the next wave of blizzard job cuts come we'll lose our dev and nothing will change

alpine wraith
#

there were no class devs kinda i think it was always teams

lilac stag
#

sephuz got cred for a lot of the ideas

hazy breach
#

Shadowed finisher themselves are also weird because if you compare it to the physical part its not actually doing 30%, its doing around 43%

alpine wraith
#

i only remember sephuz because we talked about sinister calling

#

more than once

hazy breach
#

But thats because of armor garf_sit

swift tinsel
#

why tf does armor still exist

#

spell res gone

lilac stag
#

PVP

#

kekw

tepid trellis
#

cuz reasons

shut jay
#

so we can find it's weakness

alpine wraith
#

to make you feel horrible vs plate

swift tinsel
#

all armor mitigation abilities gone besides fw

alpine wraith
#

as if a 40%+ nerf to evis was not enough

swift tinsel
#

keep it in pvp for the sweatlords

alpine wraith
#

or vs shield specs

lilac stag
#

i think pvp maybe one of the few things more ignored than rogue

hazy breach
#

Phys evis does 100 > get reduced by 23% by armor (since you have find weakness up) > it does 77 damage
Shadow evis does 30% of 100, aka 30 damage, and then with deeper daggers and veiltouched it gets to around 34, aka 43-44% of 77

steel zinc
#

Like they are always chasing their own tail

lilac stag
#

i can't imagine any dev sits there and goes what can I ignore or completly fuck over today

#

maybe theyre all angry who knows

warm marlin
brittle plinth
#

WoD was amazing

#

hmm!!

#

well shit, the convo changed after I hit enter

now I look foolish

tepid trellis

point and laugh at this guy

swift tinsel

hazy breach
#

Its like how two negatives makes positive, two bugs combine to make something sort of right

vestal escarp
#

Where is it written that doing less dmg is a right?

brittle plinth
#

Rogue Handbook, Page 2

#

Sadly we cant prove it, because in order to be a rogue means we cant read

vale pine
#

think thats not how things work

lilac stag
#

the key is for nothing to work

#

then it all works together

spice matrix
#

!log

alpine wraith
#

i still find funny how coup manages to introduce more bugs

#

hero talents oh boi

#

lets not talk about the DS bugs too

swift tinsel
#

you mean only sod consuming marks while dn is up

#

or that the 2pc buff completely ignores sod duration

alpine wraith
#

think they made that a feature to F us over

swift tinsel
#

hey want your tree to work with plague damage? too bad

alpine wraith
#

remember they also had to buff all plague dmg for sub by like 40%+

#

and it is still horrible

swift tinsel
#

Beedrill look ahh spec

alpine wraith
#

or they could buff fatal intent by 1000%

#

and it would still be mid as f

swift tinsel
#

fix fundamentally broken talent tree or slap aimless buffs on stuff that break other things

#

sweatbuttonmeme.jpeg

#

except there's no button on the fix pic

alpine wraith
#

i mean if you look at deathstalker's mark dmg

#

across the expansion

#

it is silly

#

how many times it has been buffed here or there

#

shit will almost do 2m crits now

swift tinsel
#

hey thats one UB

alpine wraith
#

yea that too for some reason our builders and ub got turbo buffed

#

instead of finishers

#

we have like 70% crit dmg

#

on builders

#

da fuq

hazy breach
#

You strike a target for 100 damage, it cleaves 56 damage with nimble
You strike crit a target for 270 damage, but since the extra crit damage doesnt get cleaved you cleave 112 damage instead of 151

steel zinc
#

Imo this is some overdesign

#

that leads then to bugs

#

its like in football you would make different corners of the goal give extra 0.1 goal count xD

hazy breach
#

No theyve just coded it in a way where they need to manually add and change everything so sometimes they forget things

steel zinc
hazy breach
#

Like instead of shadowed finishers literally just doing 30% of the damage of the physical part of eviscerate

#

Its its own seperate spell, with its own seperate modifiers and stuff, which they then forget about as they only add the main phys evisc part to new sets and bonuses

mighty citrus
#

is it important in todays wow that styles do mixed type of dmg?

#

why cant they just do this is a and that is b

alpine wraith
#

they would need to change the framework

mighty citrus
#

but in terms of lowering complexity, this could be a step no?

#

but i guess as always

#

too much effort with no big outcome

alpine wraith
#

yea but cleaning shit up does not help shareholder value short term

#

so unluck

#

we ran out of time

#

more luck next expansion

vale pine
#

all comes back to the problem of complicating design

alpine wraith
#

oh wait no we are behind the 12th shadow rework

#

sorry rogues

#

you already work fine right?

vale pine
#

devs basically get to eat their own food

alpine wraith
#

making coup 3 hits could only lead to problems

swift tinsel
alpine wraith
#

having nimble being so weird also could only lead to problems

mighty citrus
#

i mean its kinda of a vicious circle right. number of rogueplayers are so low, so we have prio z

#

maybe more guys playing priest 😄

alpine wraith
#

having shadowed as separate instances of dmg could only lead

#

to

#

problems

#

aAAAAaAAaaAaAa

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

or adding a dash to coup

vale pine
#

or

#

you know

#

they can just not fix it

alpine wraith
#

so we can kill ourselves more effectively

vale pine
#

and ignore it

swift tinsel
#

the blizz motto

alpine wraith
#

like this season's tier set

vale pine
#

because these decisions happened in bfa already

mighty citrus
alpine wraith
#

wont ever get fixed

north schooner
#

I could see how surprising strikes wouldn't be intended to cleave its crit damage, but lethality makes 0 sense since it applies always

vale pine
#

its just more of the same was added on top

alpine wraith
#

because as eleem said they have to manually add all the things

#

and cba

swift tinsel
#

man imagine if you could just

alpine wraith
#

remember the nightstalker situation

swift tinsel
#

not do your job

vale pine
#

it is probably also a tooling issue

alpine wraith
#

or when they took goremaw off nimble

swift tinsel
#

or skip parts of it at zero consequence

alpine wraith
#

and just forgot the whole expansion

#

that it exists

vale pine
#

usually you should have your build system automatically update dependencies

alpine wraith
#

i mean we already saw their version control

brisk onyx
#

Maybe they can refer to ret, change shadowed to "shadow strike" and shadow strike + XX% damage, everything will become more intuitive

vale pine
#

but for wow it seems like everything is done manually

#

which leads to all this problems

runic trail
#

I still think we really need a wow 2.0, rebuild from the ground up at this point

ripe flame
#

idk that doesnt sound plausible

vale pine
#

wow 2 won't happen

#

simply because of cost/benefit

runic trail
#

Yeah, but I can dream can't I uglyassdog

vale pine
#

the company wants to make money with least effort

alpine wraith
#

you wont ever convince investors to do wow 2

ripe flame
alpine wraith
#

wow rn is on the path like fuu said least effort most money

vale pine
#

why would they spend money and lower profits

alpine wraith
#

if they were intelligent they would reinvest a lot like gachas do

vestal escarp
#

we get wow 2

runic trail
#

Why must line go up, why not line stay the same for a bit HOLY

rotund pawn
#

in ff14 community i believe "spaghetti code" and "old engine" is a meme at this point as an excuse not to implement newer and better features

vestal escarp
#

and rog still has shadowed finishers

north schooner
swift tinsel
runic trail
vale pine
alpine wraith
#

without the changes from ptr

#

and broke everything

#

more than once

north schooner
#

ah ok in that sense

alpine wraith
#

wow might have an spaghetti code but also a big parallel terminal manual imput problem too

#

where people need to manually punch shit in the punchcards for shit to work

#

every

#

single

#

time

#

they do a change

north schooner
#

I thought there were some details on what they are using and how when they are breaking things like that

alpine wraith
#

maybe microsoft with AI will finally do some code cleaning

#

after firing some more people

north schooner
#

I can't wait for AI devs to perfectly balance the game Okay

fathom adder
#

you can use 8 gcds inside of dance, right?

alpine wraith
#

yes

fathom adder
#

thank you

alpine wraith
#

oh no

astral axle
#

im baffled by this ngl

keen dome
#

same

astral axle
#

ig they just want the fish sticks to be something we deal with guaranteed

#

sociopath behavior fr

fathom adder
#

i am still unsure when to use sectec outside of dance. For example if i just did the 2 dances with cds and aim to do 2 dances between cds i do not use it outside most of time to save symbols charges - if i only do the one dance in between i tend to use one symbol with it outside of dance. Wowhead just says symbols with sectec outside of dance but do you do it always when you have them or how do you decide it.

alpine wraith
#

with new tier you kinda use sec tech on cd

#

if you can dance cool

fathom adder
#

thought its always 2 with cs - 2 between - 2 in cds - 1 between repeat

#

right now

alpine wraith
#

you do want to have it up for flag but for other things it is more important to keep the train going

astral axle
#

you can dance... if you want to Cheesin

fathom adder
alpine wraith
#

not always because of uptime

#

but you can sometimes triple dance cds

#

other times you cant

fathom adder
#

ok thank you

#

why do you use sectec on cd with new tier?

alpine wraith
#

the 1 dance in between will happen but sooner or later

alpine wraith
#

then 4 set makes coup more impactful and give extra cdr

#

for ex a funny thing is now you can even dance with sec tech on 20 secs cd if you have fazed+fw up with coup

#

and do coup SoD coup sec tech

fathom adder
#

because of the extra sd reduction with coup?

alpine wraith
#

with the builders needed in between etc

#

then you get 2 more unseens

#

and maybe even proc another coup in that dance

#

if you rng a double hit

fathom adder
#

sounds nice

alpine wraith
#

dances outside cds are not huge but it can be very highrolly

#

esp you can get to 20+ flawless stacks

#

if you begin to go super saiyan 3 mode

fathom adder
#

thank you

#

good to know

alpine wraith
#

you can try things in ptr even with high ping to get an idea

Any good nameplate presets out there? Using quazii's for a while now and looking for a changeup

Surely is tea

OP capstone for sub

swift tinsel
#

its on the table for m+ next season

alpine wraith
#

as we get more crit cb is not that important

#

but still idk

clever delta
#

he said need vigor for keys

#

but idk

alpine wraith
#

hmm vigor can help to not overcap energy as much on dance

#

maybe that has some value coming out of it to get ruptures out etc

haughty mural
clever delta
#

true 😄

void hound
#

any cool new tech for the next patch?

#

or is it a nothing burger

vestal escarp
#

Nothing changed

tepid trellis
#

"sub is unplayable without vigor + tea" procceeds to play non tea vigor builds

#

cuz its shown as better

#

for the 3rd season

#

in a row

#

🙀

vestal escarp
#

It's just his bit in stream

tepid trellis
#

he isnt the only one that does this

vestal escarp
#

Like having to always try the db build

anyone else feel like the 4pc is 90% instead of 15% to drop stacks lol

nope

hazy breach
#

Tea seems fine to play in aoe now according to sims, still quite a bit behind in ST though

clever delta
#

eleem idk if you did any keys recently

hazy breach
#

As sectech does less damage relative to what it did before in s2

clever delta
#

but sometimes im energy starved in non cds dance

hazy breach
#

Ye

#

Tea wont really fix that

clever delta
#

but vigor would?

#

you playing with big energy pool

hazy breach
#

It doesnt really

clever delta
#

which fill between pulls

haughty mural
#

Maybe when we’ll get a gloomblade season back

clever delta
#

im not saying its better or not

hazy breach
#

Ive played with tea, you still miss globals in dances sometimes

clever delta
#

almost never

hazy breach
#

But ye, since cold blood is pretty much locked to sectech any change that buffs non-sectech finisher damage buffs tea relative to cb

haughty mural
#

But wouldn’t that be the mastery and not the energy in this case ?

I don’t want to go into another tier with a broken tier set lol

north schooner
#

clearly they know that 4p is broken and they have a fix already for their internal build. BlizZard never releases broken things 👍 🏄‍♀️ 🏄‍♂️

swift tinsel
#

Tell that to Sectech clones rolling their own Winning Streak dice all tiergarf_sit

swift tinsel
#

They knew that was broken the whole time too lol

hollow spear
#

They should buff backstab and fix our energy regeneration. Sub's biggest issue is that too much of our power is in our burst window.

bleak night
swift tinsel
#

Then they gotta give us another niche

north schooner
#

I don't see them touching the balance of dance and out of dance windows before midnight

bleak night
#

they could turn sectec into a channel

swift tinsel
#

If you take the spec that only has burst and take power out of their burst, why

bleak night
#

and make it give you combo points over time

swift tinsel

Oh man Chef

how many targets we BP as trickster?? 🙂

hazy breach
#

When you have 5+ find weaknesses up in total, or 7 targets on average if youre not tracking fw

vale pine
#

7+ targets or 5+ applications of find weakness

viral phoenix
#

if you're in say 10 targets or whatever how important is it to keep Flawless up outside of dance if you're just storm BP'ing

#

still wanna cycle through EB stacks?

lean cradle
#

anyone would be able to help me out? i dont know, i thought i know sub kind off well, that i execute rotation propely and hold my cds where they will pop off most, but ending gally and mugze with fucking super grey logs just proves im doing worse than shit but i have no clue what i am doing wrong

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 off 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.
hazy breach
#

Try starting with these

swift tinsel
lean cradle
#

yeah i did those, the only thing i didnt check tbh are 8globals in shadow dance

#

Oh they were memeing about current tier

#

Vacation brain can’t detect sarcasm and memes besad

hollow spear
#

I'll only start dooming if I can't beat bums that play stronger classes

serene notch
#

Don’t doom just play classic apparently Kek

#

I did not play in this time period is sub dramatically different in mop?

sullen hare
#

All I remember about sub in dragon soul was that you had to keep up recuperate, slice and dice, and rupture in addition to doing shadow dances

#

It's been a long long time though

serene notch
#

Frequent burst windows due to low cooldowns.

#

That’s pretty much the opposite of what we are today

hazy breach
#

Is it

alpine wraith
#

biggest diff on sub on mop is burst was 5 secs

#

not 24

#

but it also because there was a super op trink

#

called assurance of consecuence

#

so dance was like 40 to 30 secs instead of 60

is that like b tier in your mind?

steel zinc
plush roost
#

For raid yeah, for m+ itll still be good

plush roost
#

That spec is jesus on all content rn

fleet wharf
#

I feel assa will pick up some buffs either before tier launch or soon after tier launch like this tier

steel zinc
#

like you can play it but its the same like this tier

fleet wharf
#

I feel that's not a bad place for assa and sub to be in

steel zinc
#

if a fight really has an execute race not before then yes you play assa. Or if caustic does like on mugzee weird stuff

fleet wharf
#

the only thing I'm salty about is assa getting all the fun tools

#

they get the funnel and execute

#

even though it's kind of cursed, they also get to mess around with cd based on talents

steel zinc
#

the issue is that subs funnel never got changed really and just added for example a fake blade flurry on top, its just other specs gottan way better

#

so sub perse has still funnel just other classes like DH or Arcane now are insane

#

like litterly insane

fleet wharf
#

they should just rename blade flurry to rogue bullshit since all 3 spec has it now

plush roost
#

Idk with current ptr tuning to me theres no point in evaluating specs

#

Some things are very clearly waaaay better than others

#

Like fdk, arcane

#

Hunter

#

Demo lock

fleet wharf
#

I thought fdk's breath got fixed? they're still op?

steel zinc
#

they are op since they have no weakness

#

they have insane st insane aoe insane funnel and cant die

fleet wharf
#

I legit wanted to play fdk, but now don't want to because of how the community reacted to proposed changes

shrewd lantern
#

are fdk players complaining about db rng still

#

or is the spec back to rider

steel zinc
#

it barely matters

warm marlin
#

The witch is dead btw

plush roost
#

damn

#

23k to 7k

warm marlin
#

peepoRiot down with cursed idol

plush roost
#

Down this the monster

warm marlin
#

Now we have 2 shitty under budget on uses (1 a channel), an overtuned 2 minute, and a shitty spymaster poggies

fleet wharf
#

I thought spymasters was good

warm marlin
#

It’s okay

#

it gives about the same amount of primary as a nerfed transmitter upscaled in ilvl

#

But you miss having stat for your first flag of the fight

fleet wharf
#

oh, so they tuned the numbers down from when they started testing huh

warm marlin
#

so it’s not omega op like spymaster was, it’s just good

fleet wharf
#

would it be viable to run two on use or not?

warm marlin
warm marlin
#

More likely you pretend to be a 2 min spec on some shorter kill timers and play the overtuned 2 minute trinket and play spymaster otherwise

chrome palm
warm marlin
#

ye it might be worse than lily

#

probably for the best who wants to press blades and then rip a 1 second channel garf

fleet wharf
#

But if the 2 min is overtuned now, isn't there a decent chance they nerf it before 11.2 launch?

warm marlin
#

the hope is that the 2min gets nerfed a bit and spymaster gets buffed to be able to stack for 3 mins so you can at least do some interesting stack holding stuff but also it’s blizzard

chrome palm
#

Forge is way stronger than signet (I say without seeing any sims) so maybe they nerf it

warm marlin
steel zinc
#

At the same itemlevel the prism is 1% better then a hoc

fleet wharf
#

on how long of a sim?

steel zinc
#

5 min

#

standard sim

#

I tested some trinkets a few days ago

#

double on use isnt bad but its worse then for example pacemaker and prism

#

I didnt sim the halls one since that was obvs overtuned

warm marlin
#

Spymaster is very nice if you ever end up holding flag for damage amps or adds or anything too

steel zinc
#

from what I seen sub is also the only class that really wants the prism as bis trinket

warm marlin
#

It’s a good trinket

steel zinc
#

you already depending on raid dps hold cds for 2nd boss burn phase with a 25% damage amp after 50% hp

#

like you hold now on vexxie

warm marlin
#

It’s just that the int version in nerubar was like 5% better than the second best on use

#

It’s nowhere near that good

steel zinc
steel zinc
warm marlin
#

perhaps

#

It’s nice to have it uncontested

steel zinc
#

like its obvs an upgrade from some specs but most do not want it really

alpine wraith
#

the cool thing about prism

#

is that you can pair it with forge kinda

#

sad thing is stacks are quite few

#

would be nicer if it had like a 5 min top end

steel zinc
#

but also sim needs some updates

alpine wraith
#

that is fine for more control but if you have a full uptime fight you can use pacemaker or antenna

steel zinc
#

if we use forge might be worth using it on our 2nd sectech cb

alpine wraith
#

also i do want to try to change some things for forge

#

delay blades a bit so it covers 2nd and 3rd sec tech both of them

#

with forge

steel zinc
#

thats so scuffed tbh

alpine wraith
#

problem is having it be able to get 3 dances on the other ones is a headache

#

not really flag lasts 24 secs

#

blades 16

#

we ramp up and get more flawless

#

no reason to use blades early

#

after premed

steel zinc
#

and at the end of a mythic endboss fight that goes 8 min all your cds are screwed

alpine wraith
#

you still sync cds

#

they have the same cd

steel zinc
#

that might work in a sim but I doubt ingame

alpine wraith
#

it works better ingame actually i just cant make it work on a sim ahaha

steel zinc
#

ya I know just saying its really rough and highly fight dependend

alpine wraith
#

well that is the cool thing

#

imagine we can be fight dependant

#

instead of

#

2 MIN ON 2 MIN

steel zinc
#

we are anyways

alpine wraith
#

AAAAaaA

steel zinc
#

like to log gally you do all sorts of funky stuff with cds

warm marlin
#

You can very easily force triple dance every flag in game but making robot do it is very hard

alpine wraith
#

yea idk i tried

#

but my brain is too small

#

the forge thing is kinda like ashes

#

so that one im more confident but also a passive one will be more overall dps

warm marlin
#

I have an APL that does it but it’s like an egregious amount of wrangling and the whole thing is just disgusting

alpine wraith
#

we are just talking utility burst kinda

#

maybe this weekend i do some clips or videos explaining as a brainstorm

#

or do some logs too

#

i do expect antenna/pacemaker to be better overall but the idea of big burst and also prism snapper is kinda cool

#

specially the 4:30 one that has an almost fully stacked prism

#

without losing dmg on the 3 min a lot

warm marlin
#

You also don’t actually overcap that much waiting for 3 minutes I feel

#

You’re just so energy starved outside cds that sometimes you aren’t insta proccing it every 10s

alpine wraith
#

you can do some things to cheat it a little

warm marlin
#

Was often like 12-13s

alpine wraith
#

like using blind

#

or other things

#

actually i have to try and see if kick works too

#

but im at work

steel zinc
#

No was dmg spells or?

alpine wraith
#

we are talking about prism

steel zinc
#

ehehe

leaden prairie
#

that would make the most sense i guess?

#

or do you start from 0

#

and add one

vale pine
#

for dungeon slice i did start with no bufs

#

for raid i removed them

#

you probaly need to add wft=0

leaden prairie
#

its skyfury now

vale pine
#

nvm its skyfury so its whatever

#

i have both in the list ^^

#

thats why

#

(confused myelf)

leaden prairie
#

if warrior is 5% alone, and monk is 5% alone

#

are both 10% or mroe cause it kinda double dip

#

know what i mean

vale pine
#

i mean it makes sense this way because you usually "miss" a buff in raid

#

and you usually only have a small part of the buffs in m+

leaden prairie
#

ye i get you

#

i think its fine this way

alpine wraith
#

they gotta make raid dungeons agains

#

just to make it fun

leaden prairie

I got curious Okay

#

Hey guys a quick question like vexie and dmg amp fights when the fight drags too long(the intermission) and we get there like in 2 mins should I hold SB/Flag for 30 sec ? And just use dance/SB ?

warm marlin
#

Depends on the amp amount and how long ur holding for, absolutely worth holding on vexie

lyric cargo
#

Thanks Comfy I was doing so but just making sure if that was correct couse 30 sec felt a lot 😄

warm marlin
#

it’s a bit unfortunate but you’re trading 1/3 of a cooldown timer to make a use 100% stronger

#

Even if you miss a use as a result you get to overlap flag blades with lust, get to save pot for the amp, get some melee cleave sometimes, etc

lyric cargo
#

So when there is down time like this I can freely use dance/SoD and ST there ? And then wait for amp

void ocean
#

or respec to assa and double everyones dps 😄

lyric cargo
#

Well played assa for 7 years kekdog

#

And wanted to have a little change okay

#

Also hate D. mark so much that playing sub is like going out of prision after 1 year

It’s mildly risky since if your guild members decide to be silly goofy and start the burn early you are very sad

I like stormbringer enh but totemic is so cringe to play

lilac stag

good news is totemic tier doesn’t work

warm marlin
#

i had enough fun moving windfury totem around all the time whose positioning didnt super matter

#

moving the quaking totem in splits this tier was no bueno

lilac stag
#

I just added it to attacks.

#

can’t be arsed

warm marlin
#

ya and then the boss runs all over the place and projection is on cd RAGEY

#

looking at u oab

Blame the tanks. 2ez

warm marlin
#

so true

lilac stag
#

storm looks to be stronger right now

#

but you may end up playing one button without activating it. lol

warm marlin

i like storm but totemic did feel more like df enh (minus the totem stuff)

#

ignoring lava lash entirely feels wrong

#

also @chrome palm care to explain? SUS

lilac stag

Just spamming wind strike in ascension in s3 I think.

warm marlin

I did think about a second rogue for outlaw, maybe

because your big target you're touching is dying in 5 seconds flat

even on 19-20s if you don't have a big enough target to DM+KB it'll die in the middle of your cds

like 1st pull of workshop

1st room of dfc you have the big dude

all those big boys

like "oh cool, aoe" and before u say cheese its single target

dunno their names, the ones that shoot the other mobs everywhere
