yeah I'm feelin the stonks rise
stop it now
i would if i had the outlaw guy prepped
unfortunately he is split rat
only for law
all 3 of my specs are equally geared rn on my main
so i can craft weapon and stuff
oh so you just never play law

repping the soulbinder kill (don't look at my second global please)
Hell yeah
i may have done a shadowstrike into sectech because my keybinds are fucking stupid
and flag is shift v, sectech is v
How good is sub rogue now in New season ?

you dont split or?
no spl*ts
Just checking, is Cursed Stone Idol really not worth it? Just sim bait?
it is fine if you dont have any other on use
it sims better than my doodoo 671 hoc
yea for sure
but I refuse to use the channel
might as well use the pvp trink
yeah I should farm for it but I cba
if I don't get prism from vault/raid next week I will
i got it to replace HoC
4 or more targets we default to just pressing BP
yea yday i went for the pvp route after not dropping idol or lilly
also got wrists
but i cant upgrade them to 701 yet
because havent dropped any
gotcha thanks
also love not being able to upgrade more than a couple hero pieces bc of runed cap

ye I just don't have enough crests to upgrade the handful of hero pieces I have currently
!tier
Tier set:
Best Slots: Head, Chest, Hands, Legs
Strength: 2p (~10% dps) | 4p (~20% dps) -> Combined: ~30%.
Note: Try to get the 4set asap.
most annoying part of the season is runed crests gating upgrades
only have hero track idol so far fortrinkets and don't wanna send runed on it if I can snag a lily
and i craft ring next week
ye got Momma neck so that's probs where I'm sending my last 30 runed lol
got a biggus dickus nack
dayum that avoidance
they know sub is for raiding
that's a fuckload too
recrafted my neck last night and next dungeon got hero track Mommas lol
lilly is pretty bad ngl.
only to swap stats bc been swapping back and forth between sub and sin
prism + other on use thats not 90 sec in aoe and prism + passive
yea only a bit better than badge
I know what gearto target
but not much
won't see hero track prism for a minute whereas I can farm lily
if u wait for 701 gear you can be done with runed crest next week
Should it Not be Assa raid and sub for m+ with the spreadsheet?
sub is for both
just get good gear dog
and crit everytime and proc everything in cds
sin absolutely cranks m+ esp if you can pull mobs into bosses
not necessarily represented in sims
Sub always competes with sin plus early tier you can grab a pvp main stat trinket really easily typically making it sim slightly better than sin, hard to plot that on the chart
sub can compete with sin on dungeons you have to standalone boss
Last season in played assa in m+ and sub in raids , but the sims in the sheet and the warcraftlogs Show a different picture? Why is the sim so different from real?
sims are done to educate on what gear to get
Sims are just us equipping bis and running raidbots, you can achieve way different scenarios in real time
not to sim real world situations
yeah that's why cross-spec comparisons via sims are a bit bait
Thanks, so i keep it as last season
that's not what they're intended for
yeah fuck it im doing it, im not swapping
Play what you have the most fun on
perfecto and kush are playing sub, for raid its better i guess
hmm better than assa? o:
adds die too fast
soo
assassiantion looks worse than ita ctually is
means you just play assassiantion everywhere, for the 3rd? or 4th season in a row now ^^
Sub does good in keys too
I would be happy to Play only 1 spec everywhere, to have easier gearing.
I dont play so much in total
you can pretty freely swap between sub and sin gear-wise
just play sub
plus you can craft 675 weathered crest gear while you're still gearing up early season
to make it even easier if you'reworried about stats (which you shouldn't be but its w/e)
Perfecto going to get sub annihilated lol
I will give sub a new chance in m+
mistakes were made

im loving sub
Sub is slammin in m+ for sure
yeah honestly having more fun as sub than sin in m+ rn
Sin is very clunky for sure
ye the mental bandwidth is super clear as sub by comparison which I'm down with lol
im def goin sub for the taz hardmode challenge
but i like it in most of the keys
also
think im attempting it today
and if your tank isn't reliably/able to pull mobs into bosses for you to funnel sub blasts off
you can swap specs in hardmode

and its just baseline way more fun
been playing the tea/rotten/1finality build since my crit was kinda low and its blasting
no nado tho f that s
perfecto is PUMPING on araz rn
priory neck sims better than medallion for me so sad
I hot the netherprism trinket and Put it in a macro with shadowdance, any other ideas how to optimize its useage?
i want to use medallion i have medlalion
dont macro it into shadow dance
dont macro it to dance
u dont want to do that
at most do it to blades
But it has only 20 sec CD ...
and it stacks
And i have already a on use trinket with 2 min cd
then u use it every other blades
and i just default to with prism unless i need to hold prism
the trinket stacks should use it as if its a 3m CD
Hmm, but the effect is linear why Not push every dance with +10% instead of every tenth by 100% ?
because 3k agi isnt alot and subs dmg is all about cooldowns

is ticking sack of terror a simbait trinket? i have it on hero and have warpclaw on hero as well but it keep telling me to use sack tho i dont see anyone use it so far (in combo with lily trink of eco dome)
!loot
if its simming better for you its not a sim bait
Sack is dog on aoe and barely decent on ST
anyone else benched in favour of the assa rogue of the raid based on week 1 heroic logs? 
nah but can't be benched because im the only rogue
also just play better than the assi rogue
ecks dee
assert dominance
i miss being the only one so i could just play the gigachad spec in peace
Can’t be benched if you’re the raid lead 
Hmmm, so it is simbait then, take warpclaw over crystal of anub?
thats the thing, his survivability is atrocious but bigger numbers hehe
so annoying

can i macro the cursed stone idol to sblades?
if you feel like channeling in your blades window sure
oh so its not one of those channels
but where would it be best used?
like before i cast blades?
Quick question guys, is it fine to pop Coup de Grace outside shadowdance?
Not simbait, just not a “wide” usecase
You can still use it on ST
yes
!coup
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.
so the number 2 is only in sblade right?
it's fine to munch unseen blade proc in regular dance
also i assume sending 1cp double coup is fine outside dance?
where would be the best place to actually channel the cursed idol?
my feelycraft doesnt make much sense
would it be like before flag or before blades
Comparing sims to actual live dps. Are you all able to remain close to sim dps or is it lower than sim?
if I'm just whacking away at a dummy usually within a percent or two
The sim takes the average (or well, median) result of thousands of iterations, so if youre hitting the dummy you should be able to beat it relatively often
Hmmm I’m wondering what I am doing wrong. I’m simmed at 3 mil dps and for sure I feel good during the opening nuke but during the downtime and to the 2nd nuke, it seems like I catch up to my sim dps and then drop
™
Are you simming with raidbuffs

Ahhh good point. I am assuming sims automatically add raid buffs
sometimes i see the sim do: flag symbols dance tech and then blades after why is that?
Ya if I’m gonna lose it anyway I do that as well
Also press storm over shadowstrike outside sblades if it brings me to at least 6 cp and I have coup up
But donno if that’s optimal
you can pretty much send 2nd coup with however many cp you have as long as you cast it before buff falls off

ideally if outside dance you bank sht
so that doe snot happen
so you can coup stab coup

and kush
nice, both seem to stream
https://www.twitch.tv/perfectogg
https://www.twitch.tv/kushlul
the boss felt good for sub in heroic/normals already
This is my call every fight with adds sub fight
So first 3 assa 4th sub if you play rogue on hunters outlaw fractilus assa and last 2 sub or last fatebound assa
most guilds if they have will want to have 2 rogues that blast the boss and do omega cleave onto the adds just are paid actors during the intermission 😄
Or just play Sub every boss fight 😎
yeah sure but if you want to play the class 😄

Pre Pull Cheeses:
Recommended - Supercharge - Using Symbols of Death before pull gives you 2 supercharger charges, this is easy to perform and can be done without any loss given the infinite timer on supercharger.
- Explanation: Only the first 2 stacks of Supercharger don't reset on a boss pull, and you can easily press symbols early enough to have full charges on pull.
NOT Recommended- Disoriented Strikes - Using Secret Technique gives you disoriented strikes, you can start bosses with the benefits when using Secret before a wipe or on Trash carefully. - Explanation: Disoriented does not reset on boss pull, but this trick requires a lot of attention and can't be done consistently, so is not recommended.
Damage Impact: Both Cheeses lead to a bit more than1% damagegain in a 5 minute Patchwerk simulation.
!wa
BP on 4+ targets ,so always if 4 of more target in Dance we BP? ( sry been a while on sub)
big rouge utility
he skilled the more slow
Unironically though
72% perma slow is a big deal on that fight lol
If you dont have a frost mage rogue is the best option
(but also rogues is bigger than frost mage)
Theirs is only 70%, ours is 72%

oh wait hes running crippling?
Ye
Bp on 4+ targets in dance or 3 with find weakness applied
interesting
Idk why rotten but
ty @cursive vapor
The small talents dont really matter
ah, is he bping the adds
yeah
they need to die asap
think of during farm gally padding first adds
you hold cds for 25sec after pull and then pop off
you also are a paid actor during the intermission
Did they even bother with sin at all, I feel like sin is probably just better on the fight still lol
i was long time gone how does Sub funnel now dmg?in dance u would stil Shadow Strike into evis or bp and out side Dance if more targets we would SS to get combo points for evis right?
It does not
Is the simple answer
It kinda doesnt matter
Sin is the funnel spec now

(technically you get some extra cdr but its not insanely impactful)
ok but what i typed is how we should play sub out side of dance if more targets right?
backstab only if 1 target i guess
sub 2+2pc is an interesting profile
Nah
Sin sucks on that fight
Deathstalkers janky asf pretty sure
Well doesn’t suck ofc
Its only an issue on pillars which U can reset with vanish when u swap back to boss
I think pillars are the least important part of the fight
So if pillars aren't important then it shouldnt matter?
Its the only part DSM tweaks out on
Unless 1:30 is just significantly better than 2s
cuz u cant play FB sin on that fight
Outside of dance its shuriken storm as builder and bp only if flawless form is not up or with 3+ targets if im correct now
Uh I think 1:30s should be better technically but I’m not sure if matters cuz you end up holding anyway
@cursive vapor ty
guys, when do we want to use black powder?
rick just anwserd me hehe look bit up
big
All the time, every day. In 12.0 BP will be our only finisher
i mean evicerate is prio beyond X targets, what is X?
!tricks
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
During dance: Bp on 4+ targets, 3+ with find weakness
Outside dance: evis is prio, bp only if flawless form is not up or if you have 3+ targets
does bp has prio even compared to coup de grace? on many targets?
If im correct then you should always use coup if the target is fazed
oki, thank you!
exile is big pissing
Caustic spatter hot fix
Otherwise I'd agree
4+ targets (3+ outside dance)
Does perfecto spread rupture in adds, or maybe a general question, should sub spread rupture when there are more Targets?
perfecto causing fomo
i m trying to justify rogue being low in sims and make my guild not being mad at me starting the spec + raid leading, and they all open perfecto or echo stream and see him top dmg !
I guess i ll need to play better
i m still bad at this, i like never play BP almost. Does a tracker that tell me to do it can help me ?
Anyone done kyveza yet as sub?
Just be better 4Head
what's better for raid Cursed Idol or Lily, e.g. heroic last 2 bosses?
!wa
The Find Weakness target tracker, shows if you should evis or bp
Guys is it worth it to get different colored gems for the diamond bonus?
nah
i think timing wise the fights just better for sub
I feel that just doesn't move the needle much with how much worse subs st is in general but
I mean its working for them ig
I mean you wouldnt play fatebound with how many adds there are
you dont care about funnel tho the adds need to die insta
Yeye but they kinda die too quick for the funnel to be massive gains
And the amp is way better for sub ofc
Its still good funnel ofc by sniping ruptures and singular focus from spatter
But nowhere near what you get with scent and stuff in keys
But idk might still be good
yeah sins still probably really good no doubt
Idk I feel like sub is just cope on the boss but I haven't really been watching
Theyre literally topping
nah this would be a really good sub fight if any
But the question is if sub is better than sin
plus massive damage amp that lines up with prism and cds
Im fairly sure sub does better add damage
And that seems to be the most important part
hmmm
thanks
just a qq, is the tier still bugged?
sub is probably better consistent add damage. Sin really would only do good add damage when kingsbane lines up

You would want to play DS sin on forge if this is about forge
But DS sin is buggy as fuck on forge
It’s a terrible experience
Your mark is complete aids to play around for intermissions
You’re extremely restricted in how well you can swap and do damage to pylons
Because for some reason DS just DROPS when they die
I mean its buggy but its consistent
Im sure if DS didn’t have issues on that fight you’d see DS sin
Yeah consistent in falling off
Neither sub, nor sin do any damage to pillars in that phase, and you can move the DS mark back to the boss after the phase with vanish anyway
Sub does considerably more than sin in intermission
Sub actually has decent damage in normal dance windows now
And also it’s hard to move the mark back when you go the whole intermission no mark you’re just useless basically
You’re kind of just waiting to be able to vanish for your mark
It’s just a bad mix for sin
If there wasn’t any mark dropping it would be fine imo
Would just be annoying to swap but very doable
Yeah current sub can make sure to have damage for a lot of scenarios
Hmm so it seems damage amp COPIUM was right

big dam
Fine just play outlaw
So i got the dagger from raid what do i craft now?
A dagger
another one?
Is your dagger mythic?
no
So craft a dagger
Main hand is biggest upgrade
Always dagger 'cos it's huge stonks
Unless you can get a big stonk dagger from Mythic right away
should i recraft? or does it not matter
What
can i not just get my crafted dagger from last season upgraded?
you can to save the missives/ench/etc. but you need this season's spark and crests
aight
I dont know if your watching perfecto, but he is putting on a master class on how to play sub. Just gapping second place. Amazing.
besides the fps loss forge def feels like a sub fight

I had trouble getting invited as tank healer duo

as sub is it still possible to reset the first dance?
not in combat
should you try to aim to fit your 2nd sected in the same sdance with TFD?
assuming high danse stacks
aug diff likely
think exile also didnt have forge+prism
!gear
he did
surely i can run this instead of forge...
LOL you trolling he had it obvs
holy im about to blast
well as you might expect i didnt know
we are good on soulbinder too for sure
assa obviously looked better when their aoe was 20% more than intended
do you think they geared outlaw
I don't think the caustic Nerf moves the needle much, it's more that you want to be able to move dances to add sets
Assassination is still going to deal a mountain of damage on the dh boss
perfecto on outlaw 
Outlaw is the play
you can use rupture outside of cd`s on targets living long enough (just on targets with highest health and that should be fine)
King is still prob a sin fight
Forge would be too if you didn’t have to contract 15 different terminal cancers playing DS sin on the fight
Really not sure why they don’t have a fail safe to where if mark is gonna just fucking vanish off something it doesn’t give you DN
Idek how I structured that sentence ngl but you should get DN back for your mark dipping
DS and being implemented poorly, name a more iconic duo

and outlaw and not being in rwf

But yeah honestly I like sub right now
ye sub owns
I just think it’s a little undertuned compared to sin
Well ud play FB on the fight
Or do u mean forge
Depends on adds
st is a bit yeah but can't complain too much. wouldn't be mad if they wanted to throw a mini aura buff or big evisc buff our way lol
Yeah def not an aoe buff
I think sub has some insane aoe and cleave rn
Or just fucking buff bp again

So called free thinkers when rwf plays a spec
It’s not an exclusive feature to sub
ye but hypercondensed burst specs benefit a lot more
Like why wasn’t sub on loomithar
Why is sub so bad there comparatively?
It depends how the amps are
Where they are
Just having amps doesn’t mean sub benefits greatly
For bosses like loomithar it’s actually quite bad for sub
Because sub doesn’t have great sustained damage
ds is just a pain
i mean its probably significantly less annoying on mythic since you are hard assigned one pylon
It doesn’t matter
so you arent actually going to lose your mark in intermission
Surely they fix the mark vanishing when a pylon dies issue now.
Surely
The pylon just poofs your mark
that matters a fuck ton
not unless it dies
you just save vanish at the end of intermission
Well you want to kill it
thats not hard at all
like swapped to echo using darkest night
then saving vanish for intermission
isnt hard
i love how sub is played on one boss and guy comes in the sub channel like "see subtlety best raid spec on every boss"
Well im behind the curve didnt everyone think itd be both specs on diff bosses this tier?
but ds assa wouldnt blast boss nearly as hard in amp as sub does
thats the reason it was played
fb mightve but perma adds up
!cbbug
Cold Blood bug:
A common issue when switching between Assassination Fatebound and Subtlety is that Cold Blood stops working, this problem is solvable with the following step:
- Relogging.
My money is on an outlaw tier
yes
this is so stupid
it is ^^
If we can't be stupid on the rogue discord, then where can we be stupid? I ask of you this.
You can choose to do this ofc but it doesn’t take away from how limited it makes sin on the fight
I need a place to offload my bad takes
lol my circular progress aura lets me know right away
You still need to ensure DN for pylon
paladin discord
You still need to use vanish to reapply mark
if I'm missing the green border on sectech I know its borked immediately
You need to do it twice
im willing to bet that world first raiders can figure out how to count to 3 and have mark for pylon
Yeah but I can't outstupid the mods there. They're masters of the game.
Lmao
it is def. a very annoying bug
like you are vastly overstating how hard ds is to manage, mark was not the reason it wasnt as good as sub for this fight
The one thing holding me back from being a rwf raider. That and the allure of the swirlies.
!up
Literally who said this

but we all know sub is the best rogue spec on every boss
just need to believe
big burst
it is in the hearts and minds of those who play it
we all know guy hates outlaw and loves sub and takes any moment to brag about it
i hear he played ret paladin once 🤔
infamous ret main foreverguy
!up
sub glazer extraordinaire
based
also sub is big on 2nd boss if your guild is bad and takes 8 mins
so you can get two 3 min flags into execute
with prism
what build are they playing on araz? any changes bc adds ?
some rotten gaming to get FW fast on adds
I think one guy was playing rotten
but no tornado
I think exile wasn't and was just pressing evis
I'm pretty sure he didn't bp at all but I only watched 10-15 pulls from his pov
maybe that was why he didnt top dmg ethical exile as always
based boss dam
oh right i forgot i needed to ask this
do i just send prism with cds always
ethical rogue gameplay
amen
Between rotten, finality, shit seems pretty similar
just evis
Just run random talents
perfecto is also BLASTing
i wonder if exile held prism till 3 mins
or held in some regard
they both ran double on use, so prism was always 3 min
It’s not about the difficulty of mark
It’s about how inefficient it is on the fight
For how it plays on the fight it simply isn’t worth it
if it was better than sub it would be worth it, the fact is its just not better than sub on this fight
regardless of mark
they brought the rogue to pump damage into the amp, sub does that better regardless of how efficient or inefficient you want to call mark
or like i said maybe fatebound but thats cursed
No youre wrong actually
Bro can’t read or what idk man
They brought sub because they like the color purple
your point is silly
Simpleas
actually real
case closed
you're saying its because mark is "inefficient"
What are you even trying to argue
that is not why its worse
Yes
Yes it is
That’s why sin is worse
Otherwise you’d play sin like on every other fight

sin does not do what rogue was brought to do as well as sub does on this fight
its that simple
Sin would do subs job better if intermission didn’t exist
Burst wouldn’t matter when sin does cosmic aoe and funnel in one button
I think with change of tier set your average envenom is less damage than it was last season (comparably) so your damage of pressing fok envenom on average will be lower (comparably)
Thats imo the actual reason even with singular focus dam going up during your shiv windows
FB is just shit on that fight and DS is borked
Sure but I guarantee if you run p1 boss dam between sub and sin, sin would gap sub by quite a bit
and then sub would double that gap on the amps
Maybe but honestly can’t tell since sin doesn’t function properly on the fight
Yeah probably to both of those things, sub also hits pylons way better
You’re forced to fuck your mark
Ye I brought this up earlier
Also sin has to re-setup on boss during the amp which sucks ass
your mark isnt fucked i dont understand why you keep thinking this
why do you think its so much more inefficient to swap mark to pylon
Yeah it’s pretty bad for limited time amp
with darkest night
Regarrote, rupture, kb being strong later into the amp after its over
Because clearly you haven’t done it
i have played deathstalker on that fight for fucks sake
it isnt hard to have mark up on first pylon
the problem is when you have to go to the next two without it

which doesnt happen on mythic
YOU PRESS VANISH
Big brainer
THATS WHAT ITS THERE FOR
That
DN typically lines up for pylons in my experience. Maybe im lucky
YOU ARNET USING IT FOR ANYTHING ELSE
Is the problem
yeah pretty much
Neither specs are doing literally anything to pillars
It'd be an issue if we were running MA/improved garrote
and its up for both amps
You also just pre setup on boss before he's actually awake
Like u setup bleeds while he's immune
Yeah but at least a single shadow dance is doing more than no tea ooe assa lmao
yeah you can run over and set up bleeds while hes immune
Shadow dance is absolutely not joke dps anymore
Agree tho
With coup up you can do quite a bit in dance
Yeah nobody said otherwise
Idk why people underestimate non cd damage
I think it's really overstated how bad sin is on that fight
I dont even think sin is bad lmfao
But somehow we have an argument that sin is fundamentally worse and it doesn’t have anything to do with DS
Which it absolutely does
you still havent explained how though
the real answer is its an outlaw fight, RWF raiders just dont see it
we've already proven swapping mark to pylon isnt an issue
True real based gigachad
The way you have to play your mark makes you lose dps
and we've already proven swapping it back isnt an issue
Outlaw
DS is all about expending mark
you dont lose dps
you are literally perma expending your mark
how long do you think you're holding your fucking dn to swap it
you are maybe missing a single fucking mark proc
not even a dn proc, just a single stack of mark
If intermission* is >5 seconds u just dont spend DN and pool no?
you just vanish and reapply to the boss for amp
That’s why DS shit stomps sub on every fight it is played that isn’t forge
you dont have to worry at all about that

every other fight that doesnt have two perfect damage amps for sub to slam into
amazing
not to mention assa was doing better on araz until we saw it in rwf
who knows what will turn out to be better on other fights
Sub and outlaw have both been better on heroic
Just spouting shit you can look up in 2 seconds
could be wrong
The amp helps sub more because sin has atrocious set up for it
Because the intermission is dogshit for sin
Idk why this is even an argument
But there's no setup
the setup of
U setup while he's immune

I’m playing Dark Brew all tier you can’t stop me
Just simply kill the boss with demise at 35% 5head
Bro you know what
Thats how it works on these tier 1 delve mobs,
!
This discussion is actually straight pointless
Our end points both reach sin being the worse spec
when you cant make an actual point other than "mark bad" and then cant prove why mark is bad yeah
It is because of the amp
I bet you if you look at the amp window sub is doing 30m dps
Or around that ballpark
And that in itself is mega value
first amp watching exile go from below 10 to first in dps
and perfecto apparently did even more damage
If adds are taken care of, pylons taken care of, whats left on that fight?
Boss damage
And if sub hits the boss harder case closed, no need to argue semantica
Sure, sub hits harder in damage amps than sin
This is true
So let’s play sub on all the amp fights ???
Probably will
Unfortunately they already didn’t
I imagine king and dimensious will be sub fights
And probably won’t on nexus king
And won’t on dimensius
Depends how those fights are set up ofc
But if heroic is a tell it won’t be sub
For what reason? Sub may solo a platform
nexus king and dimensius assa can play fatebound
so the amp might be closer
depends on platforms though
Maybe, I’m not saying 100%
But based off heroic and ptr we knew forge was sub anyways
Sub bursts a lot harder than fb sin
if platform adds are a hard check you almost certainly go sub
yeah i just said closer
Depends how important any individual phase is. If p3 is the most important, and it's pure st, you just play sin
We will see but again
Ye for sure
I just imagine the amp on dragon+king may be enough of a reason to be sub
But maybe fatebound is too turbo havent seen mythic obv
Again loomithar exists
Loom is extended amp
an amp for half the fight is not really what people are talking about when they say amp phase
That is true
Not the same thing and youre being disingenuous
that definitely doesnt work for sub
is sigil of the cosmic hunt trinket on hc any good for sub?
idc about raid, mostly playing m+ so ye
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I’m not being disingenuous
There are heroic logs that disprove your notions
?
i have no idea if the amps on salad bar and dimensius are enough to bring sub by themselves, maybe maybe not
araz does have two amps though so its literally twice the value
Sub might be needed for platform damage
sub does insane platform dam
yeah his argument was against it being brought specifically for the amp and nothing else which for those fights might be fair
for sure double sub rouge fight 🙂
This is my argument yes
I mean it COULD be brought
salad bar will be interesting
anyone knows? my sim doesnt work rn idk whats wrong
Your point isn’t invalid for forge
But I think DS is clunky and inefficient for forge anyways
i think platform adds are gonna fuck
Regardless of the amp
Its good st bad aoe so
Make a judgement call
Wdym Ur Sim doesn't work
/simc doesnt work
If platforms are big in mythic I can see sub for sure
i have a question how many targets should use black powder
and when i wanna do it manually it says my character has no selected talents xD
If there’s diff specs that can blow them up
liquid swapped to rogue too after seeing echo
can prism gather stacks while the on use is in effect?
poor exile likely always get ignored
god damn sandbags always picking sub last
its ok exile managed to convince them to bench the monk on soul hunters instead of him
hes gaming
R they still on outlaw or are they on sin
Yeah soul is def not sub fight
sub can be better than assa
which trinkts are we looking for, both for m+ and raid. Bloodmallet says cursed idol and netherprism but i assume we dont want 2 on use? I have netherprism, is there a best stat stick?
but maybe outlaw is just better
Can it? Idk
outlaw definitely better but doubt they have gear for it
Last I checked sin and outlaw were like 20% ahead
!up
and idk how much exile plays outlaw anyway
im sure he can play it but maybe better on assa
Is outlaw trick or fb
Perfecto will take any opportunity to play outlaw
Perfecto was fb
boss damage
Adds
bigly damage
Everything but the collectors
adds and amps
Sub is very good on the fight
i definetely feel more important this patch, it is nice
Yeah forge is a perfect sub fight basically
rogue is always op for prog
Don't stack rogues
sorry rogue isnt a caster
i was competing with our sin rogue in keys last night
so 1 only
Idk who didnt want rogues
he didnt have 4p but still
i mean people wont stack rogues but we are mighty useful
Most of the pulls on forge weaver were done with 0 rogues lol
tl;dr good cooldowns for damage amps
That fb buff was crazy
Yeah I saw
Idfk why
That's my point
holy sandbagging from liquid
oh theres a rogue for every fight going forward im sure
Good damage
Fract does a lot of damage so
Atrophic kinda hit or miss
i wonder if fract lasts a lot
I think Atro works there
Is fract environment
The walls might be
The whole environmental shit is so dumb
i think araz was the only fight with any noticable atro shenanigans
should work on most/all of fract
!atro
Atrophic /Feint in Raid: > Click to Open <
I checked every boss, the only boss where atro doesn't work is forge weaver
Yes
could definitely be a fb assa angle yeah
and the 5 min fight is a good timing for it
For pure st there's no reason to play sub atm
Sin just does more
Timers don't matter
Sin tuning is just higher
im talking about other classes
Well yeah esp with fb
It’s so much damage
its fun because you dont need to play deathstalker
The burst isn’t as high but
I like Deathstalker
You just stay up
Sin without deathstalker has nothing going on lol
U literally just drool on yourself
It's chill but it's extremely mindless
they took away every button they could manage since the rework
better than ds imo
me big dam me press envenom
Ds is fun
also this
I love ds
you just have all of your buttons macro'd together as assa
i absolutely hate ds especially with their new tier
feels so clunky
The only button they removed was tea from sin
i want DS sub rework
Sin has always been like, 3 buttons
vanish too
er, exsang, vanish as a dps button for kb
U press vanish on FB..?
you macro it and forget it
you macro it to kingsbane afaik
you used to actually vanish at certain times for kb
well you might not want to macro to kb
because then you wont have it for 3m
but you just press it at the same time
robot uses it with kingsbane it seems
Yeah for coins
It might be pedantic but there's a difference in removing a button like with exsang, or thistle tea, and "you don't play around this button this tier"
sure but it leads to the same thing
there is technically a difference though yes
Sure but these are a difference in kind
yeah that is fair, but you could argue that it is similar with tea
you could potentially see tea manually pressed if it was impactful enough
Vanish?
in the same way that vanish ma is just not impactful enough to do
and then have to avoid dropping below the point it auto procs 
so tea and vanish arent really "removed" they just arent impactful enough to use on their own
Well no, tea was removed
It’s still a button you press to achieve something in cds
Vanish was a byproduct of how the rotation has ended up solidifying as
cant you say the same about tea
well the tea button still exists, so it wasnt really removed
it used to be more important where you used tea
No because tea as a button auto procs
we just dont play around it and let it auto proc
you could play around it not proccing
fortunately we dont
Fwiw I think the current iteration of vanish is better than the previous ones where you had to vanish at the end of kb for the big crits
Tea was never an impactful button for sin is the thing tho, like yes, it was "slightly better" to use it with buttons, but when they made the change to auto proc, i don't even think it simmed worse
were people macroing tea to shiv in amirdrassil
it was impactful when kingsbane was good
Yeah I mean I just didn’t like that you needed that ending to be super clear of any mechs to maximize on it
kingsbane was nerfed into the ground before the auto proc change
i thought it was more common to manually press it during the last seconds of kingsbane
you'd save both tea and vanish to press at different times during kb yeah
