i have faith in mr fuu and his magic robot

hollow spear
#

You still always play tfd in m+

daring raptor
#

Ds??

hollow spear
#

It just doesn't work in dungeon slice sims

daring raptor
#

Hmm

steel zinc
#

its so bugged and also then undertuned we wont play it

daring raptor
#

Just seems weird for me with the talents this patch. Makes no sense to me

median nacelle
#

anyone here tried tfd on ptr and know if its less buggy on the timer start on combat drop?

hollow spear
#

It works well now

alpine wraith
#

the timer works very well

median nacelle
#

nice

alpine wraith
#

i did a video with a showcame someone sent me it is fire

daring raptor
#

For aoe no rotten seems super weird now that we have find weakness afterall

chrome palm
#

Those are the talents that sim highest not necessarily what you are gonna run

hollow spear
#

Rotten was on the chopping block this season already

alpine wraith
#

you still get some FW from storming in between coups

chrome palm
#

Also you don’t even play around the rotten they literally removed the rotten logic from apl

alpine wraith
#

get the FW tracker to know when to BP

#

we just storm more baseline and with high crit rate

chrome palm
#

And the rotten is bugged to not cleave the crit damage on shadow strike with nimble as well

hollow spear
#

Or wait until they buff bp again and just always press it

alpine wraith
#

so rotten is kinda whatever

runic trail
daring raptor
#

I’m just a bit of a skeptic

#

The guides the past seasons have been wrong on multiple sites

hollow spear
#

The st build is kinda gospel

alpine wraith
#

same reason cb is not that big anymore

#

when you run around with likely 40% crit

median nacelle
daring raptor
#

Remove evis. Nah never

hollow spear
#

Can't remember wowhead being wrong

hollow spear
#

Didn't really look at other guides, but I doubt Eleem and Co would publish wrong stuff

alpine wraith
#

it is completely buried

steel zinc
#

DS is like worst spec in the game rn

alpine wraith
#

guides still not posted

#

mainly because things can change but still

daring raptor
#

Bro that is so stupid.

hollow spear
#

We're talking about current and previous season Hacha

daring raptor
#

Have been taking a break the past month. So just catching up on everything before going into next season

alpine wraith
#

yea DS has shitty tier

#

and was already behind

#

so rip

#

unless they double and triple it like last times

daring raptor
#

Sad to see no finality on single target though

alpine wraith
#

remember it was funny

hollow spear
#

Finality is bugged with coup

alpine wraith
#

because finality bug with coup was introduced in simc

#

it was not such a big deal until now

#

like 30-40k dps at most but now it is lik e80+

daring raptor
#

Can’t believe we have this many bugs for so long without any fixes

alpine wraith
#

dont worry last tier set is still not fixed

daring raptor
#

And no changes for rogue mainly sub for this long aswell

alpine wraith
#

and it will just fade into the darkness

hollow spear
#

Yeah, coup bug was already noticeable and now they basically more than doubled its value OMEGAKEKW

runic trail
chrome palm
fringe palm
daring raptor
#

Like only change they really did this patch was a micro buff

chrome palm
#

Instead of bug fixing nimble they just buff it

alpine wraith
#

they more than doubled because now you use it twice with more ffect and also get way more unseens

#

kinda crazy

daring raptor
#

While most other classes gets tuned weekly

alpine wraith
#

sub is just quite unpopular and not been looked much for a bit

#

but still quite fun at least

daring raptor
#

It’s been my main spec for so many years

#

So far the most interesting and fun raid spec by far for me

#

Figuring out timers for bosses are so much more fun in this spec than others

steel zinc
hollow spear
#

I had a top 15 parse on sprocket and was purple, just all you have to know about why things don't get fixed or changed garf_sit

daring raptor
#

Got almost full 100 parses tjis tier

#

This*

hollow spear
#

Not on mythic if you're not Ryldds alt

alpine wraith
#

i always get like 97 or 98

#

unless it was gally or mug for some reason those were cursed

white siren
alpine wraith
#

nah assa was looked at quite a bit

#

but outlaw and sub are kinda hmm

#

and about min maxing dmg i cant talk because i dont really deep dive other specs

#

but at least for sub it is fun

#

btw you can also gamble this tier with some things

hollow spear
#

Assa is the baseline spec. If things go south for rogue, it's usually assa that gets buffed first/the most

alpine wraith
#

im kinda working on a thing

#

but it is not good for overall dps likely

daring raptor
alpine wraith
#

but big burst

hollow spear
#

Hacha taking his gamba addiction to wow

daring raptor
#

Mythic this tier was shit for me. No reclears..

chrome palm
#

People generally play in raid what they can play in m+, so when boomkin and unholy are popular in m+, you see them in raid a lot

white siren
#

assa is the easiest of the 3 specs so to keep rogue player ahead of a number to not make the class dead they work on it first

chrome palm
#

Like I wonder why arcane and assassination are their most popular spec respectively

daring raptor
#

Prob cuz assa use to be THE RAID spec back in the day. And sub was PvP focused

#

Like sub will always be good in PvP even though you have bad dmg

chrome palm
#

And this extends to the class as a whole, when rogue doesn’t check any of the usual boxes in your m+ pug checklist, and the single target cc is no longer a factor, people don’t like playing the class that doesn’t get invited as much

daring raptor
#

The amount of control you have for your team

chrome palm
#

Last tier rogue was a lot more popular, potentially because of iron wire being really good

chrome palm
#

Sub has been the raid spec for rogue for a long time now

white siren
#

at least blizzard gave us mass blind 😄

daring raptor
#

Cuz of history

#

Idk

white siren
#

currently and from the state of PTR, i'm like switching to assa for next tier as sub is kinda left on the road

chrome palm
#

Likes rogues damage in keys is the reason it gets invites, but outside of title keys, you can never count on someone doing the damage they should perform their class

daring raptor
#

Looks like sub is outperforming assa, no?

steel zinc
steel zinc
shut jay
#

sin sims lower than it performs. sin probably better than sub

chrome palm
#

Assa caught really big buffs though

steel zinc
#

tbf raid testing didnt have assa 8% aura buff, but that does not help assa

#

yeah still assa was battling the tanks during raid testing so you played sub

chrome palm
shut jay
#

dont worry, 2 weeks deep into the tier sub will get a random 4% aura buff and they wont touch us again garf_sit

#

Escaping the shackles of one spec one trick pony is hard

daring raptor
# steel zinc you should play w/e you want to play

Yeah exactly. Even though we complain right now. The game has never been as balanced as it is now. You can play all specs for raid and will kill bosses. Doesn’t really matter. And all specs can’t be seen on the dps meter. Nothing is gonna be crazy above you like back with warriors in classic. I know this is a mad comparison, but the point is you can just plate what you find fun and perform well aswell. No need to change

daring raptor
steel zinc
short radish
daring raptor
#

Like those 2-5% extra dmg for swapping spec will no be the reason you won’t kill the boss

#

Unless you are rwf which I doubt

steel zinc
runic trail
#

I'm in rfwl, as long as we don't eat glue before the raid we're fine garf

daring raptor
runic trail
#

(We're gonna eat so much glue)

steel zinc
shut jay
bleak night
#

overall damage wont be the reason you wont kill a boss, but damage in specific situations definitely will be if you're in a shitter guild

daring raptor
#

M+ isn’t that bad either. I have been doing close to the same overall as a lot of other specs and been able to climb a bit. Did a few 19’s do def doable. Ofcourse so much easier with meta but yeah.

chrome palm
#

You had it where the top run for a dungeon was not the meta comp for some time in this season which I think is rather rare

bleak night
#

my guild wouldve taken many more pulls to kill rik if i didnt swap to sub

chrome palm
#

Not only non meta but a totally different comp having the best key

daring raptor
runic trail
bleak night
#

95% of the time yes it doesnt matter

#

but there are definitely situations where it does

steel zinc
daring raptor
leaden prairie
#

hot take but raid tuning is irrelevant outside of inter classes between its specs

runic trail
bleak night
steel zinc
#

Sims should not be used to see what is the 2nd 3rd etc best, but more as a whole.

leaden prairie
#

game should be tuned around m+ basegcat

bleak night
daring raptor
#

I know I was like 2x over guildies on adds aswell on run aswell. But it’s easy to tell someone to save their cd for that window a make them a timer

#

Will take you litterly 5 min

#

For a boss like that

bleak night
#

its funny that you think that

steel zinc
chrome palm
#

At least for raid every class pretty much has a spot

daring raptor
chrome palm
#

It doesnt matter if dev does more in raid than rogue its not like it changes anything

short radish
#

delete m+

leaden prairie
#

Ye ok except they will never do that cause they are lazy

chrome palm
#

You still play rogue and do the same thing it’s just that there is one of you now

leaden prairie
#

so tune around m+ instead, raid tuning is irrelevant everyone gets a spot CAUGHT

steel zinc
chrome palm
#

Give me back prey on the weak and make kidney ignore dr

shut jay
#

Only reason rogue players play rogue anymore is because its a guaranteed spot on a raid roster. If you're the one rogue, you're comfy pepelafington

bleak night
#

gib aoe kidney

daring raptor
#

Like I play on a fairly good level in raid, m+ and PvP. And I can se the game is tuned so bad for everything imo. They should look at each thing more and tune the game in that zone for a spec differently. That would make the overall experience better imo.

chrome palm
#

OR

#

make it so that st stops prevent recasting

daring raptor
chrome palm
#

And aoe stops do not

leaden prairie
short radish
#

has blizzard given any explanation for why sub caps exist for 96% of specs/abilities

steel zinc
short radish
#

and the other 4% just go unga bunga damage

chrome palm
daring raptor
#

I understand what they were trying to do. With giving some specs to stand out in different aspects of the game like with furry. The problem is just they arent outperforming other specs in that target number. So it doesn’t work.

#

Like each spec and class are loosing more and more of their personality and uniqueness each expac and patch because of balance. But they need to make up their mind if they won’t everything to be completely balanced across the board or make it so certain specs are better at different things. You can’t have both

leaden prairie
daring raptor
#

It’s okay for me that one spec on rogue ex is better at aoe and another is better for st.

leaden prairie
#

Outlaw outlaw got it's AOE nerfed going into S3 just cause they decided we were too strong in our low target cleave niche

#

Which they put ourselves in

daring raptor
#

Like I think like a spec like outlaw with the target cap I get it. They have so good sustainable dmg. So they are not the guy on the team which will out shine. But the dmg will always be there and consistent.

leaden prairie
#

Except it's strong in raid and useless in m+

#

So you get that

daring raptor
#

But they are just not tuning it well enough

#

Also a damn hard job lets be honest. With the new talents from dragonflight. And now hero talents with vision legendary and all other externals. Like it’s a lot to think about

#

So many variables. They kinda made the job impossible for them self

chrome palm
leaden prairie
#

What is your definition of performing well

#

If I'm target capped I should crush the specs that are not target capped at my cap shouldn't I

#

Except that's never the case

chrome palm
#

That’s just what I mean

daring raptor
#

Like a spec like outlaw and furry war wil only be good for a team where you have two other big burst specs. Which honestly is fine for me.

#

They just need as zac just said to make them shine in target cap

chrome palm
#

Then it’s an issue of the damage being too low inside of the target cap and not the cap itself

daring raptor
#

And not be ran over by another big burst class which makes no sense

#

But well outlaw has a high target cap though compared to fury

leaden prairie
#

like they just dont

chrome palm
#

I mean it seems like now. Outlaw clearly seems to be doing well in the overall damage. Whether that be because of raid buffs or no

#

I don’t wanna go in circles or anything

median nacelle
#

target cap is lame, remove it for everyone

chrome palm
#

I’m just saying if outlaw does good damage with a cap, then removing the cap obviously it would do quite a bit more, so you’d just get nerfed in some way to compensate

short radish
#

nah it was kinda needed

#

just apply it to everyone

median nacelle
#

i mean aslong as its equal, doesnt have to be infinite

#

tune around same cap

bleak night
#

cap boomkin to 4

keen dome
#

delete soft caps. Except for boomkin. give them more.

leaden prairie
short radish
#

delete boomkin

keen dome
#

Wait, not soft caps. Hard caps.

runic trail
#

Give everyone 8 target hard capped passive cleave and leave it at that garf

bleak night
keen dome
#

damn

#

Vicious

chrome palm
leaden prairie
#

No actually I would prefer for them to tune around cap but they don't do that

#

And I think target capped spells should have smart targeting and always do damage to higher hp targets in priority

bleak night
#

best i can do is target dead enemies

chrome palm
#

Ah so you think removing the cap would make outlaw more consistent without relying on being overtuned/raid buffs/ whatever

leaden prairie
#

of course

chrome palm
#

I see

leaden prairie
#

i mean xd

chrome palm
#

I just often hear complaints about the cap itself

#

But it doesn’t exactly seem to be the real issue itself

leaden prairie
#

blizzard does not tune around target cap

#

so it is an issue

chrome palm
#

That is pretty obvious with subtlety

#

Uncapped ability doing more than capped ability inside of its cap

leaden prairie
#

But like how would you tune around target cap

#

In raid

#

All AOE damage

#

Is like 3 targets

#

So what

#

I'm a target capped spec

#

I will do infinite AOE in raid then

#

But in m+ it's the complete opposite

#

So what do you do

chrome palm
#

Make them play fatebound in raid ig

#

But I mean also

#

For outlaw specifically infinite aoe in raid isn’t unthinkable

#

Because that used to be what outlaw was brought for when it was brought

leaden prairie
#

Well they nerfed bf by 10% so apparently it was unthinkable

#

With pc being a thing it's impossible to tune outlaw AOE in raid

chrome palm
#

Could just be like a separate cap for PC

#

2 targets of higher damage rest is regular bf dam or something

leaden prairie
#

what

#

the issue of pc is how strong it becomes at low target

keen dome
#

My brain has stopped working: what is PC?

leaden prairie
#

im cleaving at 120% in 2 target

#

precise cut

keen dome
#

Oooh, right.

#

Got'cha

leaden prairie
#

so i cleave at 100% + in 2/3/4 targets scenarios

#

which is mega op in raid

#

but kinda irrelevant in m+

#

so you get tuned around that

chrome palm
#

It gets increased by the talent that increases bf cap right

leaden prairie
#

yes

chrome palm
#

Wouldn’t it be easy to cap pc then

#

Say instead of every target below 8 or whatever it’s every target below 5

leaden prairie
#

i dont think you understand

#

what im saying

carmine portal
#

@ashen ibex watching ur +18 vid atm, my gf is so confused at how you play with no sound

#

frost looks great tho

leaden prairie
#

I'm saying low target cleave has way more value in raid than m+, and that's an issue for tuning, and I think pc is a perfect example of that

alpine wraith
#

tell her sound makes the game worse

leaden prairie
#

So a spec that is target capped, and that is supposed to crush people at its target cap

#

Can never be that

#

Cause then it's op in raid aoe

#

While just being what it should be in m+ aoe

#

So they don't tune these target capped specs to be better at their target cap

#

Cause of raid

#

Which impact m+

#

Proven by the fact these target capped specs get fucked over basically every tier

#

Fury ww outlaw even sub whatever

keen dome
#

I stand by my "Just delete the hard caps" because it seems easier than trying to balance everything around hard caps which they can't do anyway.

short radish
#

no just keep it fucking consistent

#

if youre going to make a hard cap

#

apply that to every single spec

#

and every single ability

#

dont just let a few random ones through

keen dome
#

Sure, you could do that too.

carmine portal
#

i think your target cap should be randomly generated whenever you press the button tbh

keen dome
#

But they seem to be incapable of doing that

carmine portal
#

i want to press starfall during a 1000 mob pull and have it dropping one star at a time

#

(i hate boomkins)

short radish
carmine portal
#

haha

runic trail
#

Ulria even catching strays in here

short radish
#

(ulria is a boomkin)

keen dome
#

Hard AoE caps are against the good brain feeling of pushing a button and seeing a ton of damage numbers appear in a big pull. This is grounds enough to change it, imo.

#

Good brain feeling -> bad brain feeling

leaden prairie
#

meh

#

i think wow works better in low target count pulls

#

cause plates are trash

short radish
#

yeah

leaden prairie
#

and lag

#

and its messy

short radish
#

and remove this meta of the only way to control the pack is by chaining CC

leaden prairie
#

i cant see shit

#

like 8 is the perfect number imo

#

5 is low

#

10 is alright

#

above you cant select a plate

#

and you lag

carmine portal
#

I have the problem that I LOVE pack pull variety- There should be groups that do many small, fast pulls and others that do few huge attrition pulls but

keen dome
#

I really hope they overhaul plates. I don't really disagree with you, I just like seeing lots of big numbers.

leaden prairie
#

and no one understands anything

carmine portal
#

But the issue is the latter is just better

keen dome
#

5 / 8 is a good range, esp if the pulls are interesting or engaging.

leaden prairie
keen dome
#

And not just, say, Cindermead everything and also chewie is there.

leaden prairie
#

Because they refuse to "overtune" target capped specs at their target cap

#

So it never work

keen dome
#

ToP has some of my favourite pulls / flow and a lot of it is relatively 'small'

carmine portal
carmine portal
chrome palm
#

It’s bizarre they don’t tune around caps and then you have fights like cauldron where ranged dot specs just do 30% or whatever more

leaden prairie
#

i hate top type of dungeons

keen dome
#

Yeah

leaden prairie
#

the pacing is too slow

keen dome
#

Why, Zac? I'm curous

#

Ah, fair

leaden prairie
#

My favorites dungeons are the one you are Perma fighting

#

Priory

#

Halls

#

Cinderbrew

#

What was that dungeon in s1

#

I can't remember

#

The one indoors

#

With golems

keen dome
#

Yeah, uh

#

Stonecore

chrome palm
#

Stone vault

keen dome
#

I was close

leaden prairie
#

Stone shit ye

carmine portal
#

I like all the bosses on Cinderbrew but I hate the trash corridors, such an outdated dungeon style imo

leaden prairie
#

Ye sure

chrome palm
#

Streets will be so shit for outlaw and so good for sub

keen dome
#

I like the second half of priory more than the first.

leaden prairie
#

The pacing of the dungeon is perfect

#

Just the mobs suck ass

#

So

keen dome
#

Yeah I think the pacing is very good.

carmine portal
#

BUT i deserve public execution because I think my fave dung of all time is The Nokhud Offensive

chrome palm
#

Like the one boss in streets where you get downtime to just wait for flag and then a big damage amp too

keen dome
#

But it's pacing that a lot of people struggle with.

leaden prairie
#

its a speedrun

#

i dont wanna be afk running around or waiting for rp and shit

#

i jsut wanna chain packs perma

#

till end of key

carmine portal
keen dome
#

Absolutely, yeah. It's something I've noticed in the 10 - 13 range where I play, that stuff like priory is where a lot of people struggle because of it's constant demands.

carmine portal
#

Massively

keen dome
#

Whereas say, something like ToP tends to be a lot chiller because there's room to breath.

void ocean
#

oh no shit I mixed up NO and BRH

#

BRH was cancer

But chain pulling non-stop always fighting is extremely fun

Undermine raid music is extremely good (if you like jazz)

this shit gives me hella goosebumps

austere zodiac

i wonder how many outlaw players make it to 70 yr old with healthy hands

void ocean
#

lets not pretend that the apm is the only reason Outlaws have fcked up wrists

austere zodiac
#

jorking it crazy style is one too

chrome palm
#

Does anyone have the apm chart for all specs

void ocean
chrome palm
#

There’s a chart that gets posted with every spec in the game

austere zodiac
#

oh wait

void ocean
#

93 APM???

carmine portal
#

Haven't played prot pally in a decade, why tf is it so high APM atm?

chrome palm
#

A lot off gcd abilities a lot of haste

carmine portal
#

right-o

chrome palm
#

Shield of the righteous is off gcd and you spam that shit

keen dome
#

Yeah, off GCD abilities and procs

#

you absolutely blast, it's hilarious how intense it can feel

chrome palm
#

Sometimes shit you don’t cats counts in apm too

#

Idk about this chart but wcl counts crusader strike for ret

#

Even though they don’t cast it manually

austere zodiac
#

i mean its sims

runic trail
#

At least we're faster than the dev evokers

leaden prairie
#

havoc does it

in its sims

#

it count you picking up balls as an action

so its massively inflated

keen dome
#

Yeah

austere zodiac

chrome palm
#

Ah

leaden prairie
#

oultaw is accurate

keen dome
#

A better metric would be looking at the actual player button presses over an entire key and raid fight.

leaden prairie
#

cant say about the otherspecs

#

then again wtf is the 38 apm

That’s your best spec in raid

keen dome
#

Don't you charge something as Dev?

void ocean
#

like 30% than assa

sly shore
carmine portal
#

yeah it has charge spells

void ocean
#

and assa is snoozefest

keen dome
#

I imagine charge spells mess up APM measurements

leaden prairie
#

would you count them as 2 actions

sly shore
#

Yes

keen dome
#

Yeah

leaden prairie
#

ok say on monk

#

you insta release

sly shore
#

The time between them is large

#

If you full charge fire breath

keen dome
#

If the charge is 2 - 3 seconds (Which could be three button presses), and you always charged it to full? It's going to mess up APM measurements.

leaden prairie
#

you know what else is large kieron

sly shore
#

You dont always charge to full

keen dome
#

I don't know Dev enough to speak but I was just talking generally

Are we going to start talking about parallel dimensions uglyassdog

yes

well yeah I personally have 100+apm because I press spacebar lots

ahhh

The timer isn't real, I don't think I even timed above 15 street if even

oh jesus

do you just ranged the fishsticks

Ye

ah gotcha

You can kill them

I think the play depends on comp

And if you have cds running or not

But the alternative strat is to keep them cced and play them on boss

They only heal fishes

tribal blade
#

MMMM

leaden prairie
#

Depending on your comp you can cc like 4 of them

#

I think that's what I'm gonna do with my comp

One root, one sham hex, one sap, one paralyzed

Play 4 on boss

the question is, is the new system adding more or less choice?

keep in mind, many things you need to skill into would be just baseline in the old system

i dont prefer the new system

iam just realistic that i need to deal with whatever the game gives me

i liked the mop system plus having the right stuff baseline

I’m just saying you’re likely underestimating for most people in here that raid / m+

I’d love it if leveling was actually 1/100. means I’m spending less time playing the game and I’m just raiding. Hahah

Weaponmaster is an awful talent

1 empowered dance

So think of how bad weaponmaster is

keen dome

incredible, really

runic trail

Its a bit like sin and caustic spatter v IB, if you can get any spatter usage it comes out better

#

Because IB is barely anything

hazy breach

Like 15% more damage on your strike and backstab

#

When those spells make up less than 5% of your damage

#

Not good Classic

wicked joltBOT

bring back og weaponmaster

#

so we can RNG quad coup

although it might be too op even at 6%

lilac stag
lilac stag
hazy breach
#

To illustrate why weaponmaster isnt good, here is an example.
You have 4 shadow technique stacks and 0 combo points.
You hit a strike > you have 3 cp > you get +4 cp from ShT and have 7 cp > weaponmaster strikes and overcaps 3 cp

void ocean
#

bro 12 sec dance with lust, pot and all the other shit feels super right

hazy breach
#

That happens very often, so most of the time weaponmaster is just +15% strike and backstab damage on average, which is not good

lilac stag
#

you’re hard pressed to convince me that anyone could tell the game play difference of talenting into WM vs just running the spec with WM untalented and having an extra talent point unused.

# lilac stag Way to be an elitist.

it's just so funny watching people try to skip the pack before candle king and you end up spending more time skipping than actually just killing it

keen dome

It's insane how many people try to use

lilac stag
#

is that the jump down the ramp and accidentally pull the pack going up the stairs?

tribal blade
#

yup exactly

keen dome
#

yep

#

It's so stupid

#

So many people have seen it but they fail to understand why you'd want to do that kind of skip.

tribal blade
#

no need for it in a 10

keen dome
#

And they just internalize as it as being a skip you need to do because you need to do it

tribal blade
#

it is a big time save in high keys for sure

lilac stag

We did it when 12s were somewhat relevant

which feels like a lifetime ago

plush roost
#

Eleem i think i know the answer to this but just checking, with the no shadowcraft talents. When at high target counts, in non-cd dances, after youve used both disorienting strikes do you keep striking even tho its 3-4 cp or storm-bp? I imagine the strike with nimble > the saved global for powder but idk

hazy breach
#

Yes it doesnt change anything, youre very likely to have unseen blades up anyway

alpine wraith
#

it is likely you get a coup too

#

and you storm anyway in between

#

then you get another unseen maybe

plush roost
#

Okidoki, it just felt weird af striking for 3-4cp in dance lmao

hazy breach
#

Yep

plush roost
#

Normally its 5-6 with shadowcraft

hazy breach

Aoe is just a bit janky

alpine wraith
#

dont worry our tornado ruptures will save us

vale pine
#

rupture tornado

#

sounds like a funny talent idea

hazy breach
#

Without shadowcraft nado is atleast slightly less cringe

#

As it now only has 2 awkward interactions instead of 3

alpine wraith
#

well it does feel cool you can presnap coupt

#

and tornado dance sec tech coup coup

vale pine
#

idk if we want to play no shadowcraft

alpine wraith
#

but in other things it can get krangled

vale pine
#

it sounds weird to me

crystal bone

^

alpine wraith

with coup being so strong maybe you can supercharge the coups and chances of getting a shadowcraft proc is quite low
