got chest hc piece and legs hc piece do i get the legs from vault or chest coz like chest is haste versa

stoic valve
#

is sub not looking great rn? everything i saw had it at a decent spot but i just saw that wowhead post with tier set and power infusion dps numbers and the spec is looking underwhelming to me from the outside

tepid trellis
#

our tierset is very strong

#

our baseline

#

is very not strong

stleathi why do i not see any subtlety rogues in hc logs

!wa

tepid trellis
tight sparrow
#

even for mythic progress?

stoic valve
#

on paper thats how I felt, the 4set especially seemed very massive, but ive been relearning the spec and i feel like im doing jack shit without it

tepid trellis
#

very likely yes

tight arch
#

can anyone link the WA that highlights Mark target?

tepid trellis
stoic valve
#

in the past when i played sub i never felt like a detriment to my team, i just had huge peaks and valleys but would always stay consistent to them

tepid trellis
#

ah that you can still do, after you get tier

stoic valve
#

now i feel like an anchor in these keys

tepid trellis
#

pre 4set you arent a class

stoic valve
#

i assumed

#

so sad

#

also whats up with the pull timers

#

idk if its me

#

or the game

lucid jackal
#

I don't feel like an anchor in keys at all idk

#

I've been doing 8-10s all day and been keeping up easily with fdk warlock shit

stoic valve
#

if 20s dont pass between packs i feel like im not online

#

some of that is relearning

#

but it feels off

lucid jackal
#

Felt fine today for me garf_sit

tight sparrow
#

its just sad we gonna play assa for m progress

tepid trellis
#

never know blizz usually throws in a tuning patch week 1

strange chasm
#

Brain off sin bleed goes crazy in keys

#

Sub defs needs a slight ST boost tho

stoic valve
#

that was gonna be my next comment

#

surely they get a decent buff

lucid jackal
#

But it's fun

tepid trellis
#

sub is like 15% behind the "good" classses

strange chasm
#

Me at 696 ilvl I sim what the top classes sim at 684 no 4 set lmao

stoic valve
#

so brutal

lucid jackal
#

Not like Sin sims much better garf

tepid trellis
#

almost 5.8

#

in bis

lucid jackal
#

Too many broken casters and fdk

#

It's insane

stoic valve
#

is that st stealth?

strange chasm
#

Yeah it's pretty insane. Warlock simming 4.2 without any gear

#

I'm 4.1 at 696

tepid trellis
#

yes its st

lucid jackal
#

Fatebound st sims r fake tho

tepid trellis
#

what

lucid jackal
#

Adds make u lose boss damage

tepid trellis
#

okay but that doesent matter on a boss like dimensus

strange chasm
#

Sub might go kinda hard on nexus tho

#

And dimensus

lucid jackal
#

Talking like forge weaver

strange chasm
#

Cds work kinda well

fickle mason
#

!sheet

lucid jackal
#

There's a handful of really heavy multitarget fights where fatebound st isn't really real

spice matrix
#

sub is very fun on Saladzar

strange chasm
#

Sin defs gaps with caustic spatter on all the ad fights tho

#

You go sicko mode on forge and soul

tepid trellis
#

then the dmg phase comes on forge

#

and assa sky rockets again

rapid oasis
#

yea, seems like sin is better than sub on forge which was really sad

strange chasm
#

Sin is probably better on all the bosses potentially

tepid trellis
#

fb assa is a vibe tho

#

feels good to be able to Mut-env-mut-env-mut-env

#

soulbinder

rapid oasis
#

oh oops, but yea, sin just destroyed me on soulbinder, kind of sad

strange chasm
#

Same with the DH bosses sin goes crazy

#

So does outlaw as well

rapid oasis
#

sadge

young mural
#

well, we've know for a week that sub was pretty bad lol

#

not really a surprise for me at least

#

its a sad reality out here

mental dune
#

is it not a fight length issue?
i ran normal and hero with the same sin rogue and i got beat in 6 minute fights n topped 3 minute

tepid trellis
#

not when assa becomes 90sec as well

rapid oasis
#

i know its the wrong chat, but is the play for sin to play FB on everything after 4p?

tepid trellis
#

prolly not soulhunters

strange chasm
#

The burst you do with fb sin

#

Is pretty good

warm marlin
#

the st leaves something to be desired i think

#

its probably bad enough to get buffed though

#

guess we'll see with stats, maybe prism/4p recovers it enough

lucid jackal
#

I mean subs 4 piece is legit absurd right

#

isn't it one of the best in the game

hollow spear
#

among them for sure

warm marlin
#

it is very strong but its not an outlier

hollow spear
#

20% from 2p to 4p

fallow nimbus
#

!wa

warm marlin
#

assa 4p with fb is like 26-27% to our 29%

alpine wraith
#

yea after 4p you will only do 300k less instead of 600k

#

or maybe even beat people on amps/add fights

#

the diff is super big

hollow spear
#

I think fb 2p is super strong

#

like 15-18% or so

warm marlin
#

ya

hollow spear
#

I think we catch up a bit with 4p

#

but we're still getting spanked by all the op shit

rapid oasis
#

8% aura buff on friday prayge

hollow spear
#

Kush on dh the whole raid aware

#

Was there any important tech to delves?

alpine wraith
#

do 1 at least

weary saffron
#

do you auto get that when doing one or

#

is there a pick up spot

hollow spear
alpine wraith
#

yes

#

Nice, thanks!

alpine wraith
#

you get that from one of the chests

#

i did a 11 but i think any works

has to be bountiful i think

oh truee

lucid jackal

But yeah, crafted gear exists as well

carmine portal
#

Shoulders it is

dry zodiac
#

so i've got a question about the optimal cooldown sequence if you go into it w/ coup ready(this is with new 4 pc and SB active). do you Coup > storm > coup > strike > ST? or would you squeeze the sectech in between (coup storm ST storm(?) 2ndCoup). or is it something else entirely and my brain is just rotting cuz its 3am.

warm marlin
#

first finisher of shadow blades is always sectec

short radish
#

is it me or is our ST kinda not that amazing in m+ anymore

warm marlin
#

disc belt comes with gem slot right

alpine wraith

ye

dusk stone
#

circes is like 7.4k stat right

hoary orchid
#

Delves give tier now?

alpine wraith
#

yes

dusk stone
#

i think the rates for delve tier was boosted with how many people got it this week

turbid saddle
#

the rate seems to be on the higher side

vale pine
#

tho maps are now hard to come by

#

think someone did mention how many delves you need to do before you can get maps

turbid saddle
#

the maps were realy good ngl

#

very quick way of getting guilded

vale pine
#

maps ended up rly nice ye

Morning guys ❤️ iv noticed that my second ST is back before my dance ends! Should I SOD and do inside they dance or wait for second dance ?

alpine wraith
#

yea you can

haughty mural
#

but slam your dance key to chain them and not let the clones hit outside of dance

tribal blade
#

gonna be honest, you guys should take advantage of sin being omega busted atm

#

you can time keys with a million fuck ups because sin is just doing crazy overall

haughty mural
#

It’s still the s2 bleed build right ?

tribal blade
#

yeah bleed build

haughty mural
#

And nothing changed I guess

tribal blade
#

not really i don't think

haughty mural
#

I’ve got raid before m+ anyway after work - but yeah I already got asked to sin in keys

and its a faceroll premade

#

we wiped 2 times in fg on swamp and still timed a 10

tribal blade
#

yeah same here

#

stick a sin rogue in any key and you can carry the entire thing

#

it's a shame because sub with 4pc is really fun

#

i did a streets and really enjoyed it

vestal escarp
#

the power of deathstalker......

steel zinc
#

Looked like sub is good on very short fights and sin in pure st

tribal blade
#

learning the fights and playing sub again after a long time playing sin

limpid sage
tribal blade
bleak night
#

assa might be a tad bit strong in keys

#

just a tiny bit

limpid sage
#

s1 frost dk levels?

bleak night
#

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

tribal blade
#

i'm not sure if it's a low key OP thing because sudden demise is doing absurd numbers

#

but yeah sin is super strong atm

limpid sage
#

might have to set up WAs for assa then ig

#

is it faster to learn than sub?

tribal blade
#

oh hell yes

#

bleed build is quite easy

bleak night
#

skill floor very low

tribal blade
#

the only difficulty of playing bleed is playing deathstalker

#

and honestly playing around IC

#

it's rough to learn at first

limpid sage
#

what'd you say the gap is between sub and assa rn? because I love playing sub but I might just abuse early season assa if it's too stronk

tribal blade
#

it's not even the gap between sub and sin, it's the gap between sin and everyone else

#

this was from a 10 FG where we had wipes and lots of inting

#

but still timed

limpid sage
tribal blade
#

it's prob not even that impressive numbers tbh

#

i could do much more with tanks pulling better routes

limpid sage
#

and your mates are equal gearwise?

bleak night
#

better than mine

#

but i also had a ww acting as a hidden affix

#

still timed though

tribal blade
bleak night
#

assa just solo carries

chrome palm
#

Sin can go into a full magic comp and still beat mages and also op warlocks

tribal blade
#

bleed is so strong atm that even in ST you can keep up

#

which is kinda weird

chrome palm
#

Yeah its pretty sorry until you reach execute

#

But after execute you aren’t THAT far behind

tribal blade
#

haha yeah big executie

chrome palm
#

Also think sin in raid on st is pretty strong

tribal blade
#

yeah i'm prob gonna test FB sin on heroic fractilus

#

i realized on fractilus you can't apply FW

#

with backstabs

#

which is turbo cringe

limpid sage
#

storm angle

tribal blade
#

or maybe i need to stand on the side of him

bleak night
#

idk if it was just me but his hitbox kinda felt weird

chrome palm
#

At least we take imp storm in st now

tribal blade
#

yeah true

chrome palm
#

He has a very strange hitbox

limpid sage
#

I wonder if it's worth doing storm with premed over shadowstrike if boss is facing you

#

and no FW is up

chrome palm
#

I don’t think so

tribal blade
#

i think you just strike

#

then

chrome palm
#

Also like

#

Strike gives fw :)

limpid sage
#

truth

tribal blade
#

pull a stealthi and ignore backstab in dance minmax

limpid sage
#

you could also reroll night elf for a shadowstrike every 2 min

chrome palm
#

Not on bosses

limpid sage
#

ye it's weird

chrome palm
#

You can’t leave combat on a boss

limpid sage
#

it doesn't do a stealthed shadowstrike, but you can do 1

chrome palm
#

There are a few assa rogues as some of the highest damage on fractillus

#

I think you can just highroll really crazy

bleak night
#

ye just flip tails 300 times in a row

bleak night
chrome palm
#

Oh that’s 27 heads

limpid sage
chrome palm
#

27 heads is not despairge LOL

tribal blade
#

lol 1:30 of heads in a row

#

that's some high rolling for sure

chrome palm
#

This was my alt kill on fractillus

#

I don’t know what they’re gonna do with sin

#

Some sorta nerfs ig

tribal blade
#

this could be giga doom for sin

#

because over compensation nerfs are a thing in wow

#

it would be funny if they let it ride for sin

#

when they fixed it real quick for sub

chrome palm
#

I dunno they’ve been super modest with nerfs recently

#

Like 3% nerf to the strongest passive trinket in the game changing nothing

bleak night
#

i mean it depends how well assa actually ends up doing in raid no

tribal blade
#

sin stays like this until after the race right

limpid sage
tribal blade
#

they don't do spec nerfs beforehand

#

is that right?

bleak night
#

normally they try not to nerf during raid

#

race

#

unless its like a serious outlier

chrome palm
#

It’s kinda hard to imagine them touching sin at least for st considering it probably isn’t played a ton or stacked in rwf

bleak night
#

which assa probably is in m+ but its m+

chrome palm
#

Like why nerf sin when the other specs are also just much better

tribal blade
#

yeah they give 0 shits about M+ tuning right now

chrome palm
#

It’s just funny to see sin keeping up in st with the other specs are known to be disgustingly broken

bleak night
#

they did a few tuning passes last season specifically targetted at m+ early on

wet idol
#

In st yes, surely it will get aoe nerf after race tbh

bleak night
#

so i wouldnt be surprised if it does happen

wet idol
#

It wont be insane nerf but its gonna happen

chrome palm
#

Yeah something is gonna happen

rose vault
#

question when should i swap to finailty build in key

#

keys *

chrome palm
#

But even if it’s damage is in line it’s still got insane prio

chrome palm
bleak night
#

yeah i mean deathstalker with tier is such an insane damage profile

chrome palm
#

You can use the build on wowhead right now

bleak night
#

even if its overall gets nerfed its still gonna be great

fossil imp
#

is outlaw like way better until you get s3 set or am i just insanely piss on sub

rose vault
chrome palm
#

Don’t need to worry about tier or whatever for that

heady dragon
#

making a tree based on RNG streaks

#

is maybe not a good idea

#

cus insane RNG streaks will result in dumb stuff

#

who could have seen that comming

tribal blade
heady dragon
#

ngl, fatebound will go down as one of the dumbest thing blizz desinged in a long long time

#

its insane how insane stupid everything around it is

haughty mural
#

Happy coinflipping

heady dragon
#

reminder that they had to buff it into high heavens AND make a tierset that removes the capstone RNG so people even think about playing it

#

and it still loses dmg on more then 1 target

#

such a design failure is impressive

#

cant wait for next expansion without the tierset and it drops to 0 playrate again because the capstone is RNG again

oh ffs

Wait shit

Meant to copy the link

void ocean
#

just wasted one summon

runic trail
#

There we go

slate lantern
#

damn idk if its even worth grinding that out this week

median coral
#

Does anyone know why all my sims tell me to put haste/mastery gems in all my gear?

void ocean
#

gotta love that every season I have to watch/read 5 hours of tutorials to figure out all the dos and donts

median coral
#

I generally sim patchwerk 5 bosses 3 minutes for M+ gearing I assume it wants to up the tick rate of rupture as high as possible?

runic trail
#

But yeah I'd look through the sim but the site is a pain to navigate on mobile, sorry

median coral
#

Decent results sub simming for dungeon slice has been iffy in the past

runic trail
#

I thought it'd be more manageable , it was not

no dramas appreciate the look in

vale pine
#

alright, think this helps with the tier set questions

swift tinsel
#

Def can’t wait to get my hands on tier bc was feeling pretty noodley in raid last night

keen dome
#

Dimensius normal in pugs, man.

#

i'm dying

swift tinsel
#

Yeah I cannot imagine that

#

We got two or three pulls in last night

keen dome
#

It's been smooth until here

#

And like. This is NOT a hard fight on normal

#

But people just can't do it

slender tangle
#

Heroic Tier in Vault and Netherprism from Timewalking, good season start boys

swift tinsel
#

Yeah the gravity thing is cool but people be scuffin it even in a guild group lol

keen dome
#

I won the boots on the DH boss though

#

the only loot i got so far

swift tinsel
#

Nice!

peak jetty
swift tinsel
#

We had doodoo loot and I lost on the two tier pieces and prism lol

#

Imma try and pug heroic this weekend though

#

Even just up through fractillus

keen dome
#

Ye

vale pine
swift tinsel
#

Have y’all gotten to check out the raid yet besides iGestalt bashing his head against Dimensius?

keen dome
#

Yeah, man. Fuck pug leading Dimensius normal

swift tinsel
#

Interested to hear other impressions of how sub feels

keen dome
#

Absolutely impossible

vale pine
#

we will raid today evening

random hare
swift tinsel
#

Was having display driver issues so I got consistent freezes/client shutdowns

random hare
swift tinsel
tribal blade
swift tinsel
#

May the loot gods smile upon you

tribal blade
#

doubling arms warr dps is madness

swift tinsel
keen dome
#

We got to the second half of P2. Most of the issues are P1. People just not paying any attention to what they're being told and I spell it out.

tribal blade
#

haha yeah we're back to having a hard end boss

keen dome
#

So many devour deaths because people just do not want to do the one singular mechanic

swift tinsel
#

Yep sounds familiar lol

vale pine
swift tinsel
#

Yeah, normal kinda fell over but the fights are still pretty cool

#

We skipped the whole last phase on salhadaar

#

But that fight is gonna be dope on heroic

vale pine
#

normal is for loot

#

heroic after, we only raid 2.5h so unsure how far we get

#

but will be fun

keen dome
#

Yeah, normal is really good.

#

Veyr chill

#

DImensius is the only hard fight 'cos it has instant wipes and people have to pay attention for 5 seconds (challenge imposisble)

swift tinsel
#

I think we maybe had five tier tokens drop total, and the rest of the drops were pretty meh

vale pine
#

hmm

#

i mean trinkets and tier

#

the rest is whatever

swift tinsel
#

Lol we wiped to the first push bc the gravity people were running around with their heads cut off

keen dome
#

Yeah

void ocean
keen dome
#

We had two DPS who, even after being told repeatedly what to do, would stand in his hitbox for the mechanic

swift tinsel
#

Then not pulling the floating people down

vale pine
keen dome
#

Like it killed them and they went and did it again

swift tinsel
#

Then not coming together in the split gravity part

keen dome
#

Also the people who ask "What killed us" when it's so obvious

swift tinsel
#

Or taking airborne to the front of the platform instead of the back so they got insta-killed

void ocean
#

P2 of Dimensius - De Other Side

runic trail
swift tinsel
#

That looks like Uncanny Valley Michael Scott

#

I think today is 2k io for charge

keen dome
#

Ye, I wanna try to get my 60 gilded

#

Raid was so smooth, 1:30ish for getting to Nexus King

#

then almost an hour solid of wiping on dimensius

swift tinsel
#

Dang that’s cruisin

#

I think we got to Dimensius with 10mins left of our raid night so I’m looking forward to actually seeing more of it

keen dome
#

I legit don't think Dimensius is a hard or complex boss on normal and it's shocking unwilling most people are to make a token effort in pugs

swift tinsel
#

Yeah I’m a bit worried bc of the personal responsibility thing

vale pine
#

i did lfr quick in the morning

swift tinsel
#

We struggle with that

vale pine
#

and it was funny

#

you think tanks would know how to pull stuff out of void zones or run out if dbm/bigwigs tells them

keen dome
#

We had 5 classes that could hero on the first boss. I make it clear we want it on pull.

#

We get hero at 17%

vale pine
#

perfect for assassination tho

#

^^

runic trail
keen dome
#

lol i should

#

But juggling sub's opener, RW's, etc is already so much

runic trail
#

If you don't behave you get a weaker lust

swift tinsel
#

My favorite is tanks spinning the frontals so no one can get in them when it goes off

#

Like loomithar, salhadaar

keen dome
#

Yeah

swift tinsel
#

Plant, and let people get in

keen dome
#

We had a tank who just refused to move Loom'ithar from the middle and rotated the frontal away every time

swift tinsel
keen dome
#

I just kicked him. That's the perk of pugging lol

swift tinsel
#

Ours tried aiming them at the ranged stack and I told him they’re literal space cadets don’t make decisions based on them

keen dome
#

Hahaha

#

Just rotate the groups in!

#

Worst part of Dimensius is not being able to put markers down before you pull

swift tinsel
#

That’s what the plan was but apparently he had other ideas kekdog

#

Oh yeah 100%

#

We have a guy that’s usually pretty good about markers but just..didn’t do it for some reason

valid yoke
#

W

#

Dunno which of these is best to take though? Obv one of the hero ones

#

I guess just wait until I have other pieces?

swift tinsel
#

Ye you can always hold onto it until later in the week to see what drops you get

void ocean
#

i got 5 items in my vault this morning, 1 head, 1 legs, 1 gloves and 2xshoulders... none of it was a set piece

swift tinsel
#

F

void ocean
#

yup

#

i already had chest, shoulders and head waiting for a catalyst

#

hoped for a direct set piece for an early 2p but nooo

alpine wraith
#

yea im also socket gamer

#

funny thing is my second rogue got tier pants

void ocean
#

2nd rogue?

#

u in a race, Hacha?

keen dome
#

Move over Xal'atath

#

I'm the cool void now

alpine wraith
#

that i was gearing as a mirror

void ocean
#

here breakfast replacing with rogue 😄

crystal bone
#

well i played many keys last night as both sin and sub and i gotta say, sub is way more enjoyable, but sin is fucking blasting atm

#

looking foward to 4 pc for sub

alpine wraith
#

i at least know i can get 2 pc

#

but oh boi

crystal bone
#

4 pc for sub is where they catch back up im guessing

#

big gains

alpine wraith
#

it is very very good

fallen crescent
#

Nice

crystal bone
#

coup storm coups

fallen crescent
#

Is double on use the play for sub? I got a prism and i’m trying to see where i fit it

crystal bone
#

according to sims it is viable but i don't like the idea of double on-use

#

not sure how to play it

fallen crescent
#

Prob using it on ur second set of cds

swift tinsel
#

Macro it to blades probs

#

Unless you want it on its own bind for flex

#

Or both

#

You play it like a 1.5min trinket anyways

haughty rose
#

would be recrafting crafted bis gear like amulet or armband with runed crests be any wasteful or is it better to safe sparks for when i have enough gilded to get max rank already?

swift tinsel
#

If you’re doing 7’s or higher just use gilded imo

crystal bone
#

u could argue runed crests are more valuable for upgrades than gilded atm

#

i'd just craft mythic

swift tinsel
#

^

crystal bone
#

im thinking dagger craft first for myself

swift tinsel
#

I’m sitting on all mine except for the 60 gilded to craft dagger

crystal bone
#

ye

haughty rose
#

ok thanks. and recraft or completely new craft?

strange chasm
tribal blade
crystal bone
#

either way i think ur using a season 3 spark so

tribal blade
#

you use less mats to recraft, it's cheaper

crystal bone
#

save gold on the recraft

#

yea

tribal blade
#

max rank dagger with ascendance will be your best craft atm

#

big power spike on week 1 is very good

crystal bone
#

oh really? i thought it was lens

vale pine
#

lense is fine too

#

you can also easily switch with a recraft

tribal blade
#

can you put lense on daggers?

#

i didn't even check

vale pine
#

yes

tribal blade
#

ah ok

vale pine
#

for most it might be easiest to just do lense

#

and then put dagger in offhand

tribal blade
#

embels mean so little now i didn't care to sim haha

vale pine
#

and craft sth like bracer/neck/ring

vale pine
#

so later

crystal bone
#

i got the floodgate neck with leech last night 😄

vale pine
#

nicu

crystal bone
#

so im looking at bracer or ring angle for 2nd

#

craft

vale pine
#

i added !tier earlier and tier set sims to the sheet

#

!tier

wicked joltBOT
#

Tier set:
Best Slots: Head, Chest, Hands, Legs
Strength: 2p (~10% dps) | 4p (~20% dps) -> Combined: ~30%.
Note: Try to get the 4set asap.

vale pine
#

because i saw the question pop up a lot

#

last 24h

crystal bone
#

nice!

strange chasm
#

So what's the logic now with storm and 4 set

runic kraken
#

Switch to 2pc 2pc asap as well, Fuu?

vale pine
wicked joltBOT
#

Coup de Grace Optimizations:

  • **Number 1: **You can stop using finishers ~10 seconds before your Flagellation comes up. This is to build up Shadow Techniques for your cooldowns.
  • Number 2: ONLY with the 4 set of the new tier! -- During Shadow Blades, if you get the 4 set buff, you can use Shuriken Storm to not proc Unseen Blade before using your 2nd Coup.
  • Explanation: The Tier Set buff does not allow new applications of the Unseen Blades stacks, so any Unseen Blades procs between the 2 Coup casts would be wasted, this small adjustment prevents that from happening.

#

Gotcha thank you.

vale pine
#

if you follow the link

#

i did put in old and new tier bonus

crystal bone
#

is this all at equiv ilvl?

vale pine
#

and i did change all tier pieces to be old season max ilevel

#

so its fair

crystal bone
#

ah nice

#

so big gains even without including ilvl

vale pine
#

yes

#

its basically just how much the bonus gives

#

ilevel comes on top

#

you might use old mythic levels too

#

so its a good comparison i hope

runic kraken
#

I hate s2 tier.

crystal bone
#

yea s3 tier looking more fun for sure

tribal blade
#

the new 4pc is way better

#

feels insanely good to play with compared to S2 set

crystal bone
#

i've got hero tier helm and 2 cata charges now im so close

#

i can taste it

tribal blade
#

mm ok focusing lens is like 0.3% better than ascendance in pure ST

#

very small

slate lantern
solid elm
#

!wa

strange chasm
#

Sub st is poop

crystal bone
#

they balanced around max s3 ilvl

#

so sub will catch up a bit with new tier but yea fatebound still pulls ahead a bit

#

sin got like 2 buffs?

#

or 3

vale pine
#

which is typically less than 5, most of the times within 2-3%

slate lantern
#

Good thing assa got buffed at the end there, would've been unplayable!

vale pine
#

it got buffed twice

#

once directly

#

then the tierset buff was fixed, adding another 200k dps

#

blizz did rush this patch, it is why tuning is so bad

crystal bone
#

but thats why sin is looking so insane right now, they got 2 buffs

#

so thats showing

vale pine
#

tho guy probably will still call it a sub tier

crystal bone
#

without everyone's new tier taken into account

vale pine
#

so dracthyr_shrug i hope i am wrong

#

subtlety can still target swap better and has better burst aoe

keen dome
#

Guy is irght, it's a sub tier. I base this on nothing but me playing Sub and wanting it to be true.

vale pine
#

less trade offs from talent decisions

keen dome
#

Purple tier, let's go

#

(I think you are right though, Fuu. but. Sub tier)

#

raid is purple so it's purple spec

strange chasm
keen dome
#

Yeah it's wild

strange chasm
#

And just tunnels the boss lmao

vale pine
#

ye

strange chasm
#

I have sub 4 set now so only time will tell but I was cranking as sin

vale pine
#

i think it will be hard to justify

crystal bone
#

damn 4 pc in 24 hours

#

not even

vale pine
#

because fatebound is essentially

#

1:1 sub damage profile

#

but you do more baselne damage

strange chasm
#

Yup fatebound sin is crazy too

#

Exact same timings as sub too

keen dome
#

I could get 2p right now but urgh, what to pick

#

I should pug heroic before picking a piece..

#

Can the timewalking box drop tier?

wraith sphinx
#

the champion box can, i dont think the heroic box can

keen dome
#

Ye, the champ one

plush roost
#

Yeah fb sin is probably being played on plexus, loomithar, ds sin on soulbinder, forgeweaver and soul hunters, fb on fractillus, and maybe sub on last 2

#

Idk if u can justify ds sin on dimensious since you lose your mark too much

keen dome
#

I wonder how well Dimensius lines up with burst.

#

'Cos having cooldowns for the platforms is nice

dusk stone
strange chasm
#

Sub cds does work really well for platforms on nexus

vale pine
#

i hope we see sub played on all bosses in mythic

#

but i think thats copium

plush roost
dusk stone
#

numbers mean not much but i got a 5mil parse on halls earlier half paying attention without new 2pc, it feels good even without tier, after the buffs

plush roost
#

Obv no idea if they change things

dusk stone
#

raid feels like ass parse wise

crystal bone
dusk stone
#

but this is without 17% aura buff

keen dome
plush roost
#

Ik we wont be playing fb sin for sure

#

Too many adds

dusk stone
#

its hard to say but my inner pessimist says its not a sub tier. i'm seeing way too many people play basically only sin for prog raiding

vale pine
#

most of us can care less

#

i still wish classes/specs would be closer together

#

but i keep repeating this line every tier

dusk stone
#

did you see the classes played vs classes with highest IO chart?

#

ret is literally twice as high as anything else lol

vale pine
#

they reworked ret

strange chasm
#

Sub just needs some more ST tuning

vale pine
#

and always tune it in a way to do incredibly well for 80% of the players

#

means the top end is like "nah not good"

dusk stone
#

i mean in that if that's what they want their game to be about, i dont hold out much hope for things being balanced very well

vale pine
#

but the average joe does more damage than everyone else in his raid

#

and thats appealing to a lot of players

#

besides the "ritter"/"holy knight" fantasy

dusk stone
#

i understand why they do it and why its popular

#

its a god awful design philosophy in my book

#

just a pure race to the bottom

#

but thats how they tune things

vale pine
#

i don't understand their philosophy

#

because there is no consistency at all

#

then more you look at data then more you get confused

#

but then again, its a new tier

#

sub has a rly strong tier set

dusk stone
#

specs are designed for people

vale pine
#

so guess lets just be happy we have a new raid, and don't care about number tuning

dusk stone
#

sub is designed for us, but the amount of time put into it is proportional to the people playing it, or thats what i see

vale pine
#

well

#

for me, it looks like time put into a spec has a lot of positive effects

#

which means, if one spec/class gets less time, it suffers from the consequences

#

tho tuning is still the biggest factor for play rate

dusk stone
#

thats what im saying yes

vale pine
#

when sub was good, people played it

dusk stone
#

when was this?

#

season 1 df?

vale pine
#

dragonflight s1/3

short radish
#

amir

vale pine
#

s2 nobody played rogue ^^

short radish
#

though wasnt it still relatively even between assi and sub?

dusk stone
#

i thought i looked through logs and only s1 looked good

valid ocean
#

S3 had some insane sub niche bosses

toxic zephyr
#

we sub rogues are a myth

dusk stone
#

but the actual consistent theme there is that noone plays rogue since the game launched

#

or so i hear

vale pine
short radish
#

i see

vale pine
#

compare it to tiers tuning was not in our favor

#

you see what i mean

short radish
#

ye

#

though it still sorta shows

#

even when sub is strong

#

it sstill not played nearly as much

#

"strong"

lusty ibex
#

!gear

vale pine
#

people don't start playing now

#

they saw the same pattern happen time over time

dusk stone
#

sub was A tier in m+ last season on yoda's list in a worse state than it is now comparatively, and it got a B this time

#

takes time for people to not doubt

vale pine
#

also one thing not mentioned on the metric

#

i tried to convince realz when he was in here

#

is how some mechanics of sub are just hard to understand

#

and also punishing

#

e.g. shadowcraft is something 90% of people only understand when i explain it to them

dusk stone
#

sub is legitimately hard to learn and easy to master

vale pine
#

it could be anticipation

short radish
#

yeah

#

once sub clicks

#

its so comfy

dusk stone
#

idk how you do that, cause that's backward, but they did it

vale pine
#

i did not have to explain anticipation in legion, was easy to grasp

dusk stone
#

it took me 1/2 a key to shake the rust off this season

vale pine
#

i mean fundermentals did not change much

#

so if you palyed s1/2

#

its smooth sailing

hollow spear
#

people rather switch classes than play sub dracthyr_kek

timid slate
#

Should sub feel like a piano when i do opener? I only have macro for STec/cblood/trinket looped in, finding shadow blades, symbol, flag all that alot to get used to making cohesive

runic trail
#

I still don't get how shadowcraft works I just hit another finisher when the WA plays the sound uglyassdog

dusk stone
#

i mean if it were me, i would just make a cheat sheet of the optimizations

#

like we have to explain all the time that you always symbols a sectec

#

and thats buried in the wowhead guide

#

there's like 15 of those things

hollow spear
#

Won't change anything

#

People come here asking questions that would be answered if they just looked at the guide for twenty seconds

dusk stone
#

we kinda do it here with the mistakes command and we all explain of course

runic trail
valid ocean
#

At least it's not the spreadsheet timing class with 2charges of CDR vanish like it was for fyrakk

dusk stone
#

i actually had to read the guide more than 10 times to get all of the information, over a series of days

hollow spear
#

That's how it usually works

valid ocean
#

(That's all classes)

hollow spear
#

You just won't get all the intricacies of a spec in a readthrough

#

You have to play and then go back to it

vale pine
dusk stone
#

i mean kinda, but a lot of time things i was reading was dead info to me a lot

hollow spear
#

You aren't going to get the basics and all the minmaxes right at the same time

vale pine
#

because the baseline of sub is not compicated

#

fair

#

hmm

dusk stone
#

its a good guide

#

dont get me wrong

vale pine
#

i mean its kind of a trade off

hollow spear
#

if only people read it omegalul

dusk stone
#

like 8.9/10

hollow spear
#

"Is there a good rogue streamer?"

vale pine
#

if you put things all into the baseline information

hollow spear
#

Proceeds to go to their chat and ask them the same questions

vale pine
#

you overwhelm new users even more

dusk stone
#

for sure

toxic zephyr
vale pine
#

i think about it, maybe there is a good solution

dusk stone
#

careful tho

hollow spear
#

Just become a streamer fuu

vale pine
hollow spear
#

Then you can live react to "will sub be meta this season?"

dusk stone
#

ill reread it actually and make sure i'm not full of crap

hollow spear
#

And melt down

dusk stone
#

anything that isn't the rotation was really good

hollow spear
#

the major damage comes from playing the opener right

#

so I think the placement is okay

vale pine
#

the major damage comes from playing your 90 sec cooldowns correct

hollow spear
#

which are the opener

#

basically

vale pine
#

kinda yes

dusk stone
#

i am more hopeful for sub this tier for sure

#

i have a 17% aura buff before i can whine

hollow spear
#

tier set feels very nice

#

so it's mostly about the numbers

#

which can easily be changed

haughty mural
#

Prism is unlucky for your opener

dusk stone
#

do i care about which trinkets for m+ is it the raid ones

#

or is it like seaforium and something else

vale pine
#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

double on use sims highest for slice

#

think we will see that played a lot

vale pine
#

having control over your damage like with double on use was always prefered in higher keys

#

tho i would say

#

prism + passive

#

is what i will go for if i get prism

dusk stone
#

seaforium is highest passive or do i go look

vale pine
#

well you see above

#

antenna is kinda above

#

also swirlie is not bad

#

(the last boss trinket)

crystal bone
#

i got the trinket named secret technique last night
