i dont think you do that tbh
so in keys if you macro it to blades you waste a few charges and dont have 9 for next flag
Also in keys you want to be aggressive with your cds
you mean in the first pull?
yeah but ive had it happen at other times too
you could use a modifier key if you want to optimize it more
like after deaths on bigger gathers it can do similiar thing
You ain’t sitting around for 180 seconds before something happens usually
But maybe I’m just bad this season
the sadge part of prism is its not a good pug trinket
but you are not wrong, if you want the maximum control over the use, its always better to not use macros
you cannot plan 18 stack prism and sometimes you just die with it
karui chopper is top dps on purple drank man
karuichopper 
When you have coup up when flag comes, its coup->sectec->coup?
found it not too bad tbh, but i don't aim to have a perfect m+ run
measuring performance relative to others in the key usually
hmm think it matters once you go a bit higher
but you usually try to play with an organized group if you want to push
ideally, i just work super late half the week

!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.
Question regarding #1 to not use finishers. That only applies if the 2nd dance will also be ready, otherwise if that is not the case (e.g. flag 10s on CD, 2nd dance charge ~50s -> it will not be ready to cast back to back), we use finishers instead of holding until 2nd dance charge comes up?
Yes if you dont have the cdr you cant sit
Thought so, thanks!
33.5% left on boss
3% every 3h

Curious what an average overall after a key look like for sub? Say 700+ ilvl and 12+ key level
!wa
Depends on key + pull size, but here's a flood 12 from earlier today
I had an Ara 12 where I basically broke a tiny bit over six
Will also depend on if you're black powdering or opting to go for more ethical eviscerate usage
I didn't play bad or anything either
I feel like flood is THE meter to show lol
Yeah flood parses are kinda w/e atm we know sub is good
Flood is a good sub dungeon
The 60m on big momma pull 
Facts
Maybe ara but I think it's tank dependent
Do we know if the 4p unseen blade is not stackable after first coup a bug or is it intended ?
When you’re in big momma, is that an ethical evis moment or full send bp
like can we expect a fix 🥸
alright ty
also it feels so weird to waste an unseen blade even 2 while dancing out of flag+sb window
You send bp
Well the other option is to waste your globals doing storm
You are dragging mobs ontop that need to die
If you've got a group that does good add cleave, then can usually just evis boss, but gotta watch adds health to see if you'd rather bp instead
Coup to 8 stacks in 11.2.5 🥸
Ye sub needs more things it can prestack for hardmode

At 18 stack prism you do that pull anyway you wish tbh
7 superchargers, disorienting strikes, 4 coup stacks, 14 sht stacks and 18 prism stacks just isnt enough
We need more juice
How about a third trinket that requires you to turn backwards after every gcd for 15% more damage
a trinkrt that backflips every gcd, no stats or active
Okay but how funny and cool would that look if you think about it
I was not being sarcastic, i want that
Not on a tier sub is good
a tier where sub is ultra trash and we can be bad with style
So last tier?
Is it possible for liquid to 3 heal dimensius
yep
Last tier was awful
Would be interesting with how much passive damage they are all receiving
What made it worse was sub + 1 renown bug where you are just unplayable
Maybe they don't have enough damage with 4 healers
Salad man was like that
Honestly think it's a week 3 angle if boss doesn't get nerfed
They still lusting on p1
Maybe if they shift lust to p3
I miss Jpc
Who jpc I am new rogue
Need him to return
Bro just made me feel old
Because vers is good for keys
So would you also be going vers flask aswell?
I have 25% atm
Quick question about sub, is it better than assa since that week?
Vers is a good stat to have, especially when you start doing higher keys
I'd still recommend you Sim your character to see which enchant would be better
Sub seems better for keys and certain raid fights atm
I am convinced for all but halls and dB atm
Lets just say I'm only intending on doing 7-12 range, still go vers?
Yeah, but that's because I'm a tiny bit under the wanted vers value. Flask gives me just enough to not be
new to sub this xpac, do we stack flagellation as high a possible and then send our cd windows? or do we just send while also ramping the stacks
Check the guide
Nah, DB and Halls both good wdym
!guide
Wowhead guide covers it all
Db is suppose to be good sub key but check the logs

you use flag then finisher then enter dance
We are way down on db
you dont really stack it before dance it stacks fast
ty for useful info
follow subscribe smash that like button and idk
What's wrong with sub logs in db?
!burst
During your Flagellation and Shadow Blades you want your second Shadow Dance to be cast immediately after the first one ends. You do not
want to cast Symbols of Death at the same time as your second Shadow Dance, but rather 1 or 2 seconds later when Secret Technique has
10 seconds or less remaining. This is to make sure you supercharge the Secret Technique instead of an Eviscerate.
Because of this a Shadow Dance+Symbols of Death macro is not ideal.
Who's ready for that new Apex Talent we're getting that increases black powder damage by 24%
I want the one that makes DS meta
weapon master master
That talent

I'll take any talent over goremaw's bite at this point
Return of invigorating shadowdust? 👀
Imagine
Can't wait for the return of the spreadsheet days
Sub rogue will get a literal last week drop like ds again and it'll be just as broken and dysfunctional
All the dev time is on the new dh spec any other expectation is lunacy
its 4 points on apex talents, so it would technicaly be weaponmaster master master master master
Each point thus, giving you 1 master
Would be nice to see sub get like a 45 second cool down as one of the apex talents
To fill in downtime between blades and flag
Yes give us shadowdust DS best sub tier
That actually does something
I mean there's nado'
I think apex is meant to empower your iconic spell or somethint not somethint new
Why such love for deaths talker?
If thats the case then we wouod get fatty fat fat sectechs
Bro we do not want that
Apex that changes tornado to sectecnado
Where you have to stab the guy from step
Ngl sectecnado would be so stupidly fun and op
Just purple everywhere
Make all the clones use backstab
So with 3 new class tree talent points
Irony would dead
We just get tea + cb now
We sim Patchwerk for Aras/Soulbinder right? I wasnt able to find the answer in a search
we dont know if you can just spend them all wherever or if they're gated
you might just get one per gate
Would be cringe if it's per gate
Give us more difficult dust where we have the sheets but it's 50/50 if you're doing the right one
Nah dust will never return if raid renown will stay a thing
Because every week or two you have to now adjust
is it best to funnel as sub rn ? or black powder spam ? ( m+ )
Because bosses will be dying faster
Depends on if you want to be ethical
it is fine to think
biggest number
about time to die
Send BP on 4+ targets
copy that
sneaking in some extra cds was quite fun
This is what ppl were up in arms about?
Vanish reduces the remaining cooldown of your other Rogue abilities by 10.0 sec. In the Uncategorized Spells category. Added in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight.
10 sec lol
was that talent ever even played
Let's talk 30
I see
Smolderon go brrrr
Real
It's nice in theory
But then like, the stronger your raid got as a whole, bosses started dying faster
Timings started to shift
that is the pvp one
got nerfed 4 times there
from 20 to 10 to 30 to 20 to 10
So people started creating spreadsheets of optimal cd usage with dust
What was it for pve
for pve it got buffed from initial 20 to 30
And every week or so it would change after boss netfs, etc.
it was not people it was just 2 people stealthi and me
That sounds intuitive and fun wdym it was bad
and i guess some people did do theirs in private i guess
the biggest problem was we had several cds that desynched quite easily
It's intuitive and fun until you have to adjust ever single week
but the coolest thing is you could OMEGA send
if you wanted
completely destroy something
i did keys as dust
Was fun in keys tbh
i adjusted every key and pull
I see cd desync
and it was very fun
even played it on sl
you could do a special tech with flag obedience and the cdr boi
Will never forget the "just play darkbrew" moments when people were asking which build to play in m+ lol
could get flag to stack again
you send them the big boye
That's the good stuff
But realistically dust will never return
In Midnight, It will be called Void Dust now
very unlikely same as our cool super dances
trust
a-void dance
Bro a talent that gives branching decision making
That sounds like it doesn't have a skill ceiling, it has a skill sky
i would not mind some talents that gave cd to some finishers but would make things cooler
like evis with 10 or 5 secs cd
but you can buff it with other finishers or doing x diff builders or something
I am legit gonna make a ticket tonight and ask for that back
guys is it ok that my second dmg is st? or does it have to be bp in m+
depends on dungeon
usually nimble is first now if you have 4p
then bp or sec tech
Hi, new to sub rogue. Do we use black powder on 4+ or 7+ targets ? Some guides say different or is it because black powder buffed ?
4 or more
there is a wa that tells if u have to use bp or ev
where can i find it
!wa
Gotta convert more people to ethical evisc enjoyers
thank you guys
!guide
funnily enough even if you want to ethical evis 1 bp and that dm stack might give more dmg
so cant escape BP
Ideally on stuff like 1st pull flood you should evis a few times to prio the big guy and bp after
Are we playing gloomblade for fractillus because no backstab
Nop
just went into another hc pug for the lulz to test out how my damage feels and man is it hard to parse on those cleave fights
wdym best log on araz is 8.6m
What's going on
He's talking to himself. Pay him no mind
i thought i'd share my experiences with some fellow subtlety rogues
What is rough about it tho
idk variables in raid quality ig
Oh I see, not actually asking yourself wdym.
Araz has set phases where the damage Amp is, if raid is slow just send a dance Instead of flag window
You don't have to send stuff on cd
It seemed like back and forth between your own messages. (cleave fights are hard to parse), wdym cleave fights are hard on sub? Top parse is 8m
why are you talking about damage in a pug
shhhh
huh?
wdym brain damage
i'm just looking for some fun stuff to do and as my guild doesnt do alt raids yet i joined a pug with mostly experienced people in it
Soulbinder you have total control over when your spending cds too
yeah on soulbinder i managed a bit better
So it was araz?
on araz i could have held cds better i think
isnt the amp like 10s or so?
Doesn't matter
You send the later 10s of prism
You have almost best burst in game
Amps are your thing
It is why we are viable in raid at all
bro i do understand my class
and i'm not talking about playing the boss 100% properly
but about padding in the meters lol
it lines up with the amp anyway, and youll do the most during the amp
last usage lines up with all the adds at the end with that timing
number one heroic log definitely used full burst for adds
bro why would i be talking about mythic in a pug setting
I mean that I wouldn't worry, there were sub parses last tier where people had insane parses you can't get Because of cd timings
its funny to do some things
like rogue's my alt and probably never gonna step foot into mythic raid
so i have to find something else to do on it as a sort of season goal
last season on my dh alt that was avg 95s in heroic
i think i wanna push that a bit more on the rogue this ssn
I got a 99.7 on plexus last week with m+ talents lol
I really do enjoy raid this tier
because i didnt look for timer
Frac is cancer though
!mistakes
Here are some common mistakes and how to spot them in your logs:
- Go into your log, press Timelines and Casts to the right like this
- Every single Flagellation & Blades window should look like the opener in this picture. Coup, shadowstrikes and eviscerates can move around a bit depending on procs, but all the other spells should be used exactly like this.
- Make sure you always get 8 globals off during your shadow dances. You can hover over your shadow dances to see the exact times they start, and then see if your 8th spell is within 8 seconds of that.
- If your shadow dance and/or symbols wasnt ready in time to be used like in the picture above you used too many in between your burst.
and got the knockback in my face right after hitting 2nd dance
thats hc for me, dont even remember what i did, i think i just mostly ripped it on cd in p1, just timing dances to spawns
I got like 6.7 or something
but we also do it in a split so i dont really care about full on cranking it, i just want my loot and get out of hc and into mythic
I need a better heroic parse. No splits so everyone is just sending
idk i ended at like 4m or so, but tanks fucked up the echos twice and also we didnt really keep adds tidy so i shadowstepped into them for raid to not wipe
It was the dumbest thing I got awful parse for araz and then like 3rd on soul hunters in my group
pug setting makes it very hard to pad on that boss
our evoker got his orange parse on our mythic soulbinder kill, killed my prog parse lol
thats basically my boss dmg
but im probably also a "BIT"
more geared
previous pull I was like 1 mil higher and then ranged figured out the timing
damn i actually did almost the same boss dam as you
like 20m less
I was 701 on my last forgeweaver, 705 now, probably 706~ next week when we do farm
708.8
706
I'm missing gloves, need some to drop from M+ so I can push my last piece to 704
Veteran gloves
Why did a feral steal your trinket
im working on my scuffed as fuck feral druid right now because I can't grind for gloves anymore right now
we got the same dmg from it
@tepid trellis
so he got it
I dont even know how to gear from scratch this season
its a w/e sandwich
@leaden prairie bozo…ur missing the doesnt matter dps gain
its neutral

think the only time you could actually do it and gain something is if you do the pre sectech cheese
U still run cb in m+ or what’s goin on
actually tea now
Rly?
ya
tea is chill
Is it bigger boss dam by how much
1%
Tea is good
Ye but cb is like always there
Tea in boss dmg sim starts at 3 stacks
Which sucks to me
I am really enjoying sub in M+, bleed build boss damage is ass and I hate it
Sub is good enough in m+ yes its probably better than sin in all runs except premade groups where sin literally solo’s the entire dungeon
Oh thats like omega big
Then u just always cb ok ok
its basically 1% for 1%
just in AoE vs single target
And u lose more than 1% boss dmg if u start with 0 tea
Right?
So that probably omega sucks
In real runs
not actually sure, depends where eleem gave me the numbers from
I might run tea in dungs like floodgates if i wont play sin will see
auto-tea should be a warcrime tbf
if its boss dmg in dslice sim or a 5min sim
in dslice it wouldnt have 3 stacks
but i do not know where he gave me the 1% from
i just trust the raichu
Some dungeons are better for sub right? Which ones would those be?
dawn and streets
Cool ty
sin is great in the big pulls but even when I run with guildies we aren't pulling stuff onto boss. literal tank dam without funnel
Ye sin without playing around it is just sub angle to me
U can play sub in arakara maybe too

I think most tanks dont know how to tank arakara for sin
So u just sub there imo?
Idk
Didnt try tet
ara-kara has a lot of built in funnel on the bosses, so that at least helps
Yet*
Idk people say db is sub key but it's the one we don't have a top parse for
We have eco dome over db logs
Maybe ye
like even on last boss you can at least get 5 target CT rolling on the boss
I wouldn’t look at sin logs atm
better than nothing, but still probably less dam than sub
We know how much it does at max ilvl
sub in arakara is fine, only "bad" part is after first boss
And its omega crazy
yeah singular focus destroys in that area
Its annoying for sin cuz they die in 15 seconds
Which are the big fuckers with aoe dr
I check mdt it's not listed afaik
big scarabs with white aura around them
Ye ik ik
Why is it not in mdt
Ngl stealthi
I think
Sin’s job there is to just nuke it
And u just chain the whole area
yeah
Cuz like
Assa is really good for it, where as sub is kinda not
@tepid trellis can you share your mini hp bar pls, I tryed to copy it, but cant replicate the look
i yoinked it from zac lol
Rly rly bad for sin to restealth there
You talking right side 2nd split?
U talking to me zorn?
If u mean after 1st boss arakara
I got 5.7 overall and I thought I played well
That area up to 2nd boss
Yeah
first one of the dr fuckers is on the end of the bridge after first boss
U never restealth there kinda
Unless its ez to do so
Cuz ur job will be to nuke the big guy
Thats it tbh
I was mad, I'm like I've been doing rly well on meters and I get this derp stuff that run idk
but yeah i think its a chainpull angle as Assa and just nuke the DR fucker
and let the others deal with the shit
We did right side and I prio scarab I think right side is just bad for sub
Too many hp imbalances
ok ty, found it
Good rogue tier regardless we chilling
!up
ty kind sir
loot is the same as far as I know
Just distributed per boss on their specific table
You don't run taz for the dungeon loot, you run it for the mythic piece
loot is the same
It's all haste, the myth thing at the end is also haste mostly?
I'm ngl myth is myth
Especially if you're trying to catalyze tier gear
Most of the leather is haste though, yes. But I've been grinding the shoulders for hours
True
I did 20 dawns and got zero signet, teammate trolled me and got 2 b2b forced upgrades then 3rd b2b and I got it finally
I hate loot in this game
I don't honestly know why you can't trade "upgrades"
And the only factor in an "upgrade" is ilvl
If I loot a shitty sub trinket that is far worse than the lower ilvl ones I have, I should be able to trade it
The answer is toxicity
i need help with my rotation i want to pump as sub, where can i look to see what im doing wrong
It's at the end of a dungeon, if I get bullied into trading an upgrade that's my own problem
!guides are a good start, but likely youre fucking up your shadow blades windows
Check the guide but this place is also good
where can i look to maybe see what im doinjg wrong
Blades is the core. Master that rotation and you're immediately goated

The guide, it shows an opener and you check if you're doing it right
Ig i should update the picture to include double coup, but it doesnt matter much as its replacing an eviscerate
i should get into photoshop again so i can make pretty pictures
instead of fancy words
As a newer sub rogue I wanted more visual information when I learned
Like different blocks of the rotation
either that or i make short youtube clips
probably the 2nd
since thats gonna take shorter time
Cant really do a picture of the rotation since it varies depending on sht procs
Like not in a good "without much text" type way
Eleem btw, im planning on make sub specific boss stuff (after prog), so if you come across something neat, hmu
I read fuus guide right and read priority but for new people I feel like text info will not always stick, I remember going to dummy, doing opener and getting lost
I kinda just grinded heroics and learned what the abilities did
I am also not new to mmos
but i used to do it every ptr cycle
now im only gonna do it on ptr cycles if something is substantially changing from patch to patch
I usually end up doing it by proxy of trinket testing on ptr
kinda same

12 hoa
Maybe actually I'll go and check my logs later
Top log for halls 12 is nimble over bp
Reason is prob that strike also triggers it
One below that is bp over nimble
When are you doing evis vs bp
boss and prio
You can just bp regardless for not bosses it's fine if you want
Depends if the mob needs it ig
my damage was lower than I'd like, but this was my breakdown on a 12 hoa
had like 8m overall, dunno what others do in hoa
thanks
8 is good for halls

so when i have 4 piece i still do shadowstrikes incase i get more coup procs untill the 5 sec are out?
instead of ss
if youre in dance
you press shadow strike
to generate cp
if you have coup proc
you press coup
coup is like DN
you want to get rid of it
If you have 4p proc, does it take prio over sectech in dance ?
Am I trolling doing this? It saves so many binds
Do you send 2 coups with energized cp ?
do I just spam black powder after opener on pulls? I feel like this ability does negative damage and its better to push other buttons or its just dependant on build?
- Tea is 0% troll, thats optimal
- Symbols is 30% troll, during your shadow blades you ideally want to use them seperately
- Trinket is 100% troll, it should be macroed to Shadow Blades
Could you explain that second part please 😄
ohhh so never ss? even in big aoe?
!burst
During your Flagellation and Shadow Blades you want your second Shadow Dance to be cast immediately after the first one ends. You do not
want to cast Symbols of Death at the same time as your second Shadow Dance, but rather 1 or 2 seconds later when Secret Technique has
10 seconds or less remaining. This is to make sure you supercharge the Secret Technique instead of an Eviscerate.
Because of this a Shadow Dance+Symbols of Death macro is not ideal.
ahhh okay that makes sense

point 2 is the only time you really want to ss
my feelycraft also says pressing it first global in dance with TFD says its good
ahh okey thats so smart, idk if my WA tracks the 4 set procc
i guess its just if i dump 2 coup hits and it comes up again thats where i ss?
cuz thats prob the procc
If you press coup
And you can press coup again
Then you have the 4p, your WAs should show that since its the same thing as regular coup
i hear a sound
i think
okey ty
no wait the sound i hear is only if it doesnt consume cp
sry im new to rogue
i get it tho
coup is quite interesting it can recoup cps from shadowcraft on any hit

with should use prism with SB always?
No
playing 1 on-use you can macro it to blades
playing 2x on-use you wanna alternate so you can do 18 prism stack bursts
You 18 stack with 1 on use as well
Just have a macro for your sb stuff and a modifier for prism
not nearly as much of a reason
Unless you know you’ve got a reason to do so at 3 minutes
There are mobs I do not want to prism
Count too low but also needs flag
Prism is lossless
the default is to use it with every blades
the better way to use it is with 2on use?
and at some point you over hold it, lose casts and diminish its value.
cds in keys especially are more about quantity.
m+ 2x on-use is quite good, for raid unless certain timers 1x on-use is better
2x on-use being prism + forge
not anything else
There's like a 3 or 4 mob pack before boss 1 on db
k ty!!
and you keep holding it and waste it vs sending it every blades
I get the argument but it hasn't been more than an I was just bad type of thing
i take it back salad man was right again
Holding CDs is what makes for bad sub rogues
who is salad man
the russian sub otp
damn he just like me frfr
but russian
and not a raccoon
but other than that he just like me
frfr
spot the difference
its true I seent it
No way salad man is eating trash lettuce. Raccoon 100% eating trash lettuce

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
The secret forbidden sub dps rotation
Sorta a weird question, but what tanks have fellow rogues enjoyed playing? Want to get one going as an alt later in the week after my rogue is set
i like prot warrior
Nice, that's one ive frequented playing as well
probably worth checking out brewmaster too
!wa
does anyone have the WA that assigns your focus interrupt in keys to a marker
prot paladin is just an outlaw rogue that can tank
bear is also mindless
if you really like to spam gcds
and if you like to do BIG DAM
prot warr
this silly goobers doing 5-6m overalls
please blizzard...lets us stay good for this entire patch
ranged far too strong for blizzard to care about sub being good melee
guardian does big dam too. You just have to play druid of the claw instead of elunes chosen. Elunes chosen give you survivability for free, while dotc feels far more deliberate more like managing rage for defense/offense similar to warrior imo
i have never seen a druid do more than 4m overall as tank
but also druids are rare
i do know monk can also do crazy numbers but same almost never see them
Me still with two haste rings on
Saw prio ring drop 3 times "I dont need but cant trade sorry"
does Meld-> stealth spam not work if there are any bleeds up?
It does, sometimes
while melding it's a mixed of dmg taken, dmg done, healing received by your healer who's on fight, spaghetti code, worl hunger and Eipstein Files
so sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't
aight back to blood elf, this is too rng
not really useful on sub anyway. I'd say I get it 2/3 of the time as sin
always popping it before vanish because xdd
it never worked if DS mark is up for assa tho thats for sure
Can anyone sent a detailed overall dmg breakdown from a dung? (Key range 11 or higher)
cant you find this on wclogs yourself?
U got a point 😝

I don't think I've seen a druid of the claw guardian at all
But the dps difference between dotc and elunes is absolutely massive
They do about the same amount as prot warriors
More than even shadowpan monks
You can tell they're sweaty druid of the claw players because they constantly catweave XD
for 2x on use is there a good rule to follow lily/netherprism?
so how do we feel about that double on use in keys?
i was doing great dmg but sometimes its weird when cds are delayed
!wa
Why is sub so high in the Tier lists?
Because we paid the tier list makers off
ppl refuse to play sub
And crazy sustained
Sub got insane on demand burst/prio
if im in shadow dance i dont use Shuriken storm right?
Pretty much
and i only spend on Black powder and Secret technique on cd
2nd use being on next flag?
Coup over bp if it’s up
what is fw
Find weakness

I crafted a weapon + bracer for Assa, am I cooked if I wanna swap to sub?
not really
No
dagger users, sorta similar stat weights
If you have to ask that question 2nd stats is the last thing to worry about
Also 2nd are overrated
for sin maybe
Embelishments are overrated. Secondaries are kinda big atm
Assa wants some haste especially for m+ tho so not completely same weights. Personally i just swap rings & trinkets for haste on assa and versa on sub and leave the rest be
both specs are crit mastery tho
yes
I'm trying to make a WA to track the buff timer between first and second coup, but there seem to be an issue with the progress bar.
The text timer works but the progress bar never fills up all the way. Sometimes it fills up halfway and sometimes not at all. Anyone know why?
Not completely, its just fatebound assa that wants Lots of crit, deathstalker aoe wants haste mastery Mostly, while versa is not as great for both as for both sub aoe and st builds
Sub wants Lots of versa as Well as mastery
i just used a trigger -> aura -> name: escalating blade
Maybe i need to do something more than this?
i mean yeah, but also like if you are multi speccing, it's pretty much fatebound or sub
i've not began min maxing my gear, so crit is currently my lowest stat
just been chasing ilvl

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.
maybe lily on first and second and prism on 3 minutes is better, not sure about that
could be
also could be changing depending on fight i guess
to save me the time trial and error, what cd on flag are you guys using as a marker to not dance
imo stacking prism is only really benefitial if there is anything worth having more stacks for like an amp or higher mob count than on previous uses you'd have without holding
also having lily as 2nd on use to prism is not really a big upgrade since you could have just used prism anyway. it would maybe only be better on short fights where you'd have a lily on pullcds and prism on the others since prism wouldnt be stacked on pull
what makes having forge better is that you'd have more benefit from alternating between the 2 since forge is 2 mins and higher stats from the effect
so you can use prism on 2nd set while forge is still on cd
yea you lose massive lily value playing double on use
ye lily is only really good because its guaranteed up every flag, the stat bonus from the on use is pretty low
might as well play a passive trinket
sim said 2x on use is giga bis so wanna know timings
better than antenna?
well check the cast sequence if the bot wants you to use both, you'll see how it uses them
he probably means from the trinkets he currently has
i see
man it would be nice if embelishments would be swappable like a gem or the tinker slot
so when crafting you'd craft a slot for them on the item so that you'd be able to freely rotate them afterwards
agree, recrafting adds more friction
gz
no more pvp trinket
@vale pine is there any gain from holding unseen blade procs when holding coup for flag? or is that an overcook
doesn't lily kinda suck? or I guess its the best M+ option
better than pvp badge
I Agree. Would not be surprised at a crafting overhaul next expac in regards to how sparks and embellishments work
I got mine before season started, from m0 
hero track
why not fill vault
and i also didnt have a 701 trinket
2s are champ track as well
Do u myth raid?
6+ or you're trolling
yeah
Then why xd
..?
Isnt the main conensus to upgrade only to 704
Just get mythic prism 
i did a key with some of your guildies
So u dont waste gilded
True
then free ilvl upgrade
Having shit on hero track lets u upgrade it for when u run out of upgrades
also some trinkets r worth spending guilded on
^
Not any of the dungeons ones but
In previous seasons, and other specs its been the case
Prism and antenna are so OP which makes it hard to spend it on other dungeon trinkets but yeh
Yeah just get it 
yeah but everyone and their mother wants the trinket
snatched prism on normal week 1
rough
our guilds acutally so cursed for trinkets
We had 2 drop at the same time
we didnt get a single HoC until w5
In a normal
we've gotten only one forgeweaver trinket
Forgeweaver we got 1 nm and 1 hc i think
!up
we're yet to kill forgeweaver on hc, should get it monday, group was wiping at 4% on wednesday
could be worse, could still be progging loomi
i got forge, otherwise i would be forgeless 🙂
how?
i mean plexus was more of a challenge
just RWFL things
why is it a meme that as a patch goes on sub gets worse? does it have anything to do with stat weight scaling? i was looking at my dh friends stat weights and he gets more from stats and such as slightly less ilvl
probably more likely that fight timers get lower, so it naturalises sin to end the fight on good timings?
dont look at statweights...
that shit changes every patch and scaling doesnt exist
well i wasn't looking at them, i was asking if its relevent at all
is there any particular reason for that? it seems like it would have a lot to do with class performance
why does it matter that sub gains X dps per statpoint over 5 minutes when it gains XXXXX dps per statpoint over 20 seconds?
Sub does 1 thing the best of all classes and specs in the game
i mean were not talking about external factors atm tho
annihilate in damage amps
what im wondering is if we just straight up intitially dont scale as well as other classes before the other class variables come into play
i mean if my dh friends stat scaling is 50% better
50% better at what exactly
more damage per point
yeah i understand what you are saying, but i just told you that simming stat weights is gimmicky at best
how about you sim your characters for a specific piece of gear and change the ilvl by 50
im not sure about gimmicky but not being reliable would be accurate
the only stat weight that matters is weapon dps
yeah his weapon dps scaling is better too by 10%
so i guess demon hunter > rogue
the charts reflect that
correlation isnt causation though, and while that is a true thing i just wonder how related it is
!up
yeah well simcraft has demon hunter at 5,6-5,7m dps and sub at 5,2m
so its natural that the same gear yields higher sim values on dh
why specically though, are they completely unrelated or is it just because there are external factors
a spells damage is made up of combo's of stat weights and attack power, they change the coefficients to balance
are stat weights one thing they change when they do aura buffs?
so you could double the attack power on a class, but the balance team will just make that coefficient on the spell half
stat weights dont exist
not an actual example, but you can gather how the classes arent normalised to each other
on top of this, mastery is a good example, and you can look at it between specs even on rogue, sub just has a higher inherent mastery % compared to sin, even with the same total
thats not really related to that "issue"
our friend just wants to compare apples to oranges
and wonders why apples scale better than oranges
you asked if its relevant info, i told you its not.
i could summon whispyr who would love to talk about scaling
but that would incinerate this channel
some classes do have better "stat scaling" but it never matters cuz blizzard funnily enough balance the game semi regularly, if they never did then yeah the class would "scale" bad some classes just have internal factors that makes them like secondaries more

like certain talents the scale with haste etc.
there are just waaaaay to many factors in a game like wow for stat scaling to matter
scaling would only exist if blizzard suddenly decides that there will be no more balancing whatsoever and just ups the itemlvl each month
Is the Tea/CB choice in keys pure preference ? or it depends if you want more AoE of ST ?
i wish they never downscaled haste on dh, just let me cdr my blade dance to 0
thne you would have enhances lava lash
at certain haste levels
where you just spam lash
scaling is a part of balancing tbf
main thing is sectec is soft capped at 5, so getting the mast from tea during dances is more dps
CB more boss dmg Tea more AoE. its about 1% in each direction
balancing negates scaling, hence scaling doesnt exist for us in an isolated environment that we call "patch"
ok cheers
but yes, if you take anecdotal evidence from mop remix... demon hunters scale pretty good with insane amounts of stats
or locks
can you explain this - I don't quite get what you're saying
100% crit goes insanely hard on dh
coffee not activated yet
when a class goes too crazy
oh that's what you mean
it gets the nerf bat
since blizzard constantly rebalances as the time goes on, scaling doesnt exist in our world
so its better "stat scaling" did not matter
it only does in miniscule amounts in our reality
yeah makes sense
each patch has a very narrow range of itemlvl
how much unscaled haste would be needed to make rupture the best sub dps button
and within that itemlvl range
you dont scale
you just grow a bit stronger
and next patch you will be reigned in again
so its really just apples to oranges
not alot
the only thing that matters is how does a spec perform in this current moment in time
I do wish they'd implement some haste scaling to our kit though
and transmog
shadowtechnique says hello
i see, thank you
as the only thing in our kit ye xd
i really dont
cuz they will mess it up
well its a very powerful ability, ofc it doesnt scale better than finisher damage or versa
and its gonna end up like outlaw
rupture tick rate, very quietly says hello
ok i concede
also, enjoy having versa as your go to stat... makes your life alot safer
pi is the reason i dont get 100's. i promise
state of unholy dk
