if you use double on use

#

you don't macro

#

if you only use prism

#

just macro it to blades

dusk stone
#

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

haughty mural
#

Also in keys you want to be aggressive with your cds

dusk stone
#

yeah but ive had it happen at other times too

vale pine
#

you could use a modifier key if you want to optimize it more

dusk stone
#

like after deaths on bigger gathers it can do similiar thing

haughty mural
#

You ain’t sitting around for 180 seconds before something happens usually

#

But maybe I’m just bad this season

dusk stone
#

the sadge part of prism is its not a good pug trinket

vale pine
#

but you are not wrong, if you want the maximum control over the use, its always better to not use macros

dusk stone
#

you cannot plan 18 stack prism and sometimes you just die with it

#

karui chopper is top dps on purple drank man

#

When you have coup up when flag comes, its coup->sectec->coup?

vale pine
#

measuring performance relative to others in the key usually

dusk stone
#

im also in 12's

#

which makes it worse

vale pine
#

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

dusk stone
#

ideally, i just work super late half the week

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?

hazy breach
#

Yes if you dont have the cdr you cant sit

Thought so, thanks!

33.5% left on boss

oh, liquid did have a rly good pull

oblique fable
#

Curious what an average overall after a key look like for sub? Say 700+ ilvl and 12+ key level

shadow lance
#

Depends key

#

Flood 14 for exemple 706 ilvl

dusk stone
#

I had an Ara 12 where I basically broke a tiny bit over six

hidden jasper
#

Will also depend on if you're black powdering or opting to go for more ethical eviscerate usage

dusk stone
#

I didn't play bad or anything either

oblique fable
#

I feel like flood is THE meter to show lol

dusk stone
#

Yeah flood parses are kinda w/e atm we know sub is good

hidden jasper
#

Flood is a good sub dungeon

dusk stone
#

The old king has returned indeed

#

There are no bad sub dungeons, we are meta

The 60m on big momma pull Prayge

hidden jasper
#

Facts

dusk stone
#

Maybe ara but I think it's tank dependent

night sparrow
#

Do we know if the 4p unseen blade is not stackable after first coup a bug or is it intended ?

oblique fable
#

When you’re in big momma, is that an ethical evis moment or full send bp

night sparrow
#

like can we expect a fix 🥸

hazy breach
#

Its a biproduct of how coup is coded

#

Extremely unlikely to get fixed

night sparrow
#

alright ty

#

also it feels so weird to waste an unseen blade even 2 while dancing out of flag+sb window

dusk stone
#

You send bp

hazy breach
#

Well the other option is to waste your globals doing storm

dusk stone
#

You are dragging mobs ontop that need to die

hidden jasper

#

Coup to 8 stacks in 11.2.5 🥸

hazy breach
#

Ye sub needs more things it can prestack for hardmode

lucid jackal
dusk stone
#

At 18 stack prism you do that pull anyway you wish tbh

hazy breach
#

7 superchargers, disorienting strikes, 4 coup stacks, 14 sht stacks and 18 prism stacks just isnt enough

#

We need more juice

dusk stone
#

How about a third trinket that requires you to turn backwards after every gcd for 15% more damage

slate marlin
#

a trinkrt that backflips every gcd, no stats or active

hidden jasper
slate marlin
#

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

hidden jasper
#

So last tier?

dusk stone
#

Is it possible for liquid to 3 heal dimensius

slate marlin
dusk stone
#

Last tier was awful

hidden jasper
dusk stone
#

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

hidden jasper
#

Honestly think it's a week 3 angle if boss doesn't get nerfed

#

They still lusting on p1

dusk stone
#

We are 35% with 45 seconds on the clock atm

#

Is that enough

hidden jasper
#

Maybe if they shift lust to p3

dusk stone
#

Get another sub rogue

#

Karui popping

#

Perfecto better tho

hidden jasper
#

I miss Jpc

dusk stone
#

Who jpc I am new rogue

hidden jasper
#

Need him to return

calm haven
#

Would anyone know why the Vers enchant is suggested for m+ over the mastery one?

hidden jasper
dusk stone
#

Because vers is good for keys

calm haven
#

So would you also be going vers flask aswell?

dusk stone
#

I have 25% atm

misty umbra
#

Quick question about sub, is it better than assa since that week?

hidden jasper
#

I'd still recommend you Sim your character to see which enchant would be better

dusk stone
#

Sub seems better for keys and certain raid fights atm

#

I am convinced for all but halls and dB atm

calm haven
#

Lets just say I'm only intending on doing 7-12 range, still go vers?

dusk stone
#

Yes

#

Why would you want less vers

hidden jasper
mighty venture
#

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

What's wrong with sub logs in db?

dusk stone

!burst

wicked joltBOT
#

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%

covert apex

I really hope these apex talents are actually interesting

#

Any article about them?

hidden jasper
#

Return of invigorating shadowdust? 👀

#

Imagine

#

Can't wait for the return of the spreadsheet days

sullen hare
#

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

slate marlin
#

Each point thus, giving you 1 master

hidden jasper
#

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

dusk stone
#

Yes give us shadowdust DS best sub tier

hidden jasper
#

That actually does something

dusk stone
#

I mean there's nado'

slate marlin
#

I think apex is meant to empower your iconic spell or somethint not somethint new

hidden jasper
#

Why such love for deaths talker?

slate marlin
#

If thats the case then we wouod get fatty fat fat sectechs

dusk stone
#

Bro we do not want that

slate marlin
#

more clones

#

more dmg

#

More secret

dusk stone
#

They will give us super perforated veins

#

Or worse mega gloomblade

sullen hare
#

Apex that changes tornado to sectecnado

dusk stone
#

Where you have to stab the guy from step

slate marlin
#

Ngl sectecnado would be so stupidly fun and op

sullen hare
#

Just purple everywhere

dusk stone
#

Make all the clones use backstab

alpine wraith
#

rofl imagine they give us dust

#

and 2 more charges of vanish

bleak night
#

every second shadow clones hit your target

#

gg

hidden jasper
#

So with 3 new class tree talent points

sullen hare
hidden jasper
#

We just get tea + cb now

untold raptor
#

We sim Patchwerk for Aras/Soulbinder right? I wasnt able to find the answer in a search

alpine wraith
#

they gave us worse anticipation

#

so time for worse dust

bleak night
#

you might just get one per gate

hidden jasper
#

Would be cringe if it's per gate

dusk stone
#

Give us more difficult dust where we have the sheets but it's 50/50 if you're doing the right one

hidden jasper
#

Nah dust will never return if raid renown will stay a thing

#

Because every week or two you have to now adjust

cunning notch
#

is it best to funnel as sub rn ? or black powder spam ? ( m+ )

hidden jasper
#

Because bosses will be dying faster

hidden jasper
alpine wraith
#

it is fine to think

cunning notch
alpine wraith
#

about time to die

hidden jasper
cunning notch
#

copy that

alpine wraith
#

sneaking in some extra cds was quite fun

dusk stone
#

This is what ppl were up in arms about?

sullen hare
#

10 sec lol

cunning notch
#

was that talent ever even played

sullen hare
#

Let's talk 30

hidden jasper
#

Yes

#

30 second on Fyrakk tier

dusk stone
#

I see

untold raptor
#

Smolderon go brrrr

hidden jasper
#

Real

dusk stone
#

Why was that so bad

#

30s cd sounds cool

hidden jasper
#

It's nice in theory

#

But then like, the stronger your raid got as a whole, bosses started dying faster

#

Timings started to shift

alpine wraith
#

got nerfed 4 times there

#

from 20 to 10 to 30 to 20 to 10

hidden jasper
#

So people started creating spreadsheets of optimal cd usage with dust

dusk stone
#

What was it for pve

alpine wraith
#

for pve it got buffed from initial 20 to 30

hidden jasper
#

And every week or so it would change after boss netfs, etc.

alpine wraith
#

it was not people it was just 2 people stealthi and me

dusk stone
#

That sounds intuitive and fun wdym it was bad

alpine wraith
#

and i guess some people did do theirs in private i guess

#

the biggest problem was we had several cds that desynched quite easily

hidden jasper
alpine wraith
#

but the coolest thing is you could OMEGA send

#

if you wanted

#

completely destroy something

#

i did keys as dust

hidden jasper
#

Was fun in keys tbh

alpine wraith
#

i adjusted every key and pull

dusk stone
#

I see cd desync

alpine wraith
#

and it was very fun

#

even played it on sl

#

you could do a special tech with flag obedience and the cdr boi

hidden jasper
#

Will never forget the "just play darkbrew" moments when people were asking which build to play in m+ lol

alpine wraith
#

could get flag to stack again

dusk stone
#

No

#

People ask you what build and you send them the sheets

#

That is the way

alpine wraith
#

you send them the big boye

dusk stone
#

That's the good stuff

hidden jasper
#

But realistically dust will never return

sacred yarrow
#

In Midnight, It will be called Void Dust now

alpine wraith
#

very unlikely same as our cool super dances

sacred yarrow
#

trust

alpine wraith
#

best they can give us is super long dances

#

and several of them

sacred yarrow
#

a-void dance

dusk stone
#

Bro a talent that gives branching decision making

#

That sounds like it doesn't have a skill ceiling, it has a skill sky

alpine wraith
#

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

dusk stone
#

I am legit gonna make a ticket tonight and ask for that back

woeful roost
#

guys is it ok that my second dmg is st? or does it have to be bp in m+

alpine wraith
#

depends on dungeon

#

usually nimble is first now if you have 4p

#

then bp or sec tech

scarlet stump
#

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 ?

tepid trellis
#

4 or more

woeful roost
#

there is a wa that tells if u have to use bp or ev

scarlet stump
#

where can i find it

tepid trellis
#

!wa

tepid trellis
#

bottom one

#

but it tracks FW targ ets

hidden jasper
#

Gotta convert more people to ethical evisc enjoyers

tepid trellis
#

which is not really what you care about

#

its just 4 or more targets present = bp

scarlet stump
#

thank you guys

dusk stone
#

!guide

wicked joltBOT
alpine wraith
#

funnily enough even if you want to ethical evis 1 bp and that dm stack might give more dmg

#

so cant escape BP

dusk stone
#

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

hazy breach
#

Nop

void needle
#

How?

#

It's a terrible node to path through

opal basalt
#

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

dusk stone
#

What's going on

void needle
#

He's talking to himself. Pay him no mind

opal basalt
#

i thought i'd share my experiences with some fellow subtlety rogues

dusk stone
#

What is rough about it tho

opal basalt
#

idk variables in raid quality ig

void needle
#

Oh I see, not actually asking yourself wdym.

opal basalt
#

like people not putting adds under boss

#

stragglers not getting gripped

dusk stone
#

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

void needle
#

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

hollow turret
#

why are you talking about damage in a pug

opal basalt
#

shhhh

hollow turret
#

you'll never compete with a guild group

#

what kinda brain damage is this

opal basalt
#

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

dusk stone
#

Soulbinder you have total control over when your spending cds too

opal basalt
#

yeah on soulbinder i managed a bit better

dusk stone
#

So it was araz?

opal basalt
#

on araz i could have held cds better i think

dusk stone
#

His phases aren't variable

#

How you get there might be

opal basalt
#

its not the damage amp where the big number goes right?

#

its sniping adds with burst

dusk stone
#

You ofc send big cds at Amp you are sub rogue

#

That's your job

opal basalt
#

isnt the amp like 10s or so?

dusk stone
#

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

opal basalt
#

bro i do understand my class

#

and i'm not talking about playing the boss 100% properly

#

but about padding in the meters lol

jagged rover
#

it lines up with the amp anyway, and youll do the most during the amp

dusk stone
#

Top parses wouldn't be padding atm

#

You don't have room

jagged rover
#

last usage lines up with all the adds at the end with that timing

opal basalt
#

number one heroic log definitely used full burst for adds

dusk stone
#

I meant for mythic for heroic it's gonna be a mess of things

#

People actively sandbag

opal basalt
#

bro why would i be talking about mythic in a pug setting

dusk stone
#

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

opal basalt
#

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

dusk stone
#

I got a 99.7 on plexus last week with m+ talents lol

opal basalt
#

gamer

#

did that just now

#

fucked up like one burst i think

dusk stone
#

I really do enjoy raid this tier

opal basalt
#

because i didnt look for timer

dusk stone
#

Frac is cancer though

crystal oasis
#

!mistakes

wicked joltBOT
#

Here are some common mistakes and how to spot them in your logs:

  • Go into your log, press Timelines and Casts to the right like this
  • Every single Flagellation & Blades window should look like the opener in this picture. Coup, shadowstrikes and eviscerates can move around a bit depending on procs, but all the other spells should be used exactly like this.
  • Make sure you always get 8 globals off during your shadow dances. You can hover over your shadow dances to see the exact times they start, and then see if your 8th spell is within 8 seconds of that.
  • If your shadow dance and/or symbols wasnt ready in time to be used like in the picture above you used too many in between your burst.
opal basalt
#

and got the knockback in my face right after hitting 2nd dance

tepid trellis
#

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

dusk stone
#

I got like 6.7 or something

tepid trellis
#

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

jagged rover
#

I need a better heroic parse. No splits so everyone is just sending

tepid trellis
#

oh people pad

#

i just dont care for it

opal basalt
#

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

dusk stone
#

It was the dumbest thing I got awful parse for araz and then like 3rd on soul hunters in my group

tepid trellis
#

i just have the timers of the adds engrained into my brain

#

cuz of mythic prep

opal basalt
#

pug setting makes it very hard to pad on that boss

jagged rover
#

our evoker got his orange parse on our mythic soulbinder kill, killed my prog parse lol

tepid trellis
#

but im probably also a "BIT"

#

more geared

jagged rover
#

previous pull I was like 1 mil higher and then ranged figured out the timing

opal basalt
#

like 20m less

jagged rover
#

I was 701 on my last forgeweaver, 705 now, probably 706~ next week when we do farm

opal basalt
#

704 here

#

I'm missing gloves, need some to drop from M+ so I can push my last piece to 704

dusk stone

Veteran gloves

tepid trellis
#

wouldve been that aswell

#

but a feral druid stole my trinket

dusk stone
#

Why did a feral steal your trinket

jagged rover
#

im working on my scuffed as fuck feral druid right now because I can't grind for gloves anymore right now

tepid trellis
#

we got the same dmg from it

random hare
#

@tepid trellis

tepid trellis
#

so he got it

random hare
#

Did sub rota change?

#

This season

#

Like

#

Do u not vanissh on opener

#

Or

tepid trellis
#

you can

#

doesent really matter tho

jagged rover
#

I dont even know how to gear from scratch this season

tepid trellis
#

its a w/e sandwich

random hare
#

@leaden prairie bozo…ur missing the doesnt matter dps gain

tepid trellis
#

its neutral

random hare
tepid trellis
#

think the only time you could actually do it and gain something is if you do the pre sectech cheese

random hare
#

U still run cb in m+ or what’s goin on

opal basalt
#

actually tea now

random hare
#

Rly?

opal basalt
#

ya

tepid trellis
#

Tea for more AoE

#

CB for more boss dam

random hare
#

Ye i see

#

I guess i still run cb maybe

tepid trellis
#

tea is chill

random hare
#

Is it bigger boss dam by how much

tepid trellis
#

1%

dusk stone
#

Tea is good

random hare
#

Tea in boss dmg sim starts at 3 stacks

#

Which sucks to me

jagged rover
#

I am really enjoying sub in M+, bleed build boss damage is ass and I hate it

tepid trellis
#

cb is -1% aoe and tea is -1% boss dmg

#

so its like play what you vibe with tbh

random hare
opal basalt
#

i keep forgetting about cb sometimes in keys

#

so i just default to tea now

random hare
#

Then u just always cb ok ok

tepid trellis
#

its basically 1% for 1%

random hare
#

Ye

#

Boss dmg matters more

tepid trellis
#

just in AoE vs single target

random hare
#

And u lose more than 1% boss dmg if u start with 0 tea

#

Right?

#

So that probably omega sucks

#

In real runs

tepid trellis
#

not actually sure, depends where eleem gave me the numbers from

random hare
#

I might run tea in dungs like floodgates if i wont play sin will see

opal basalt
#

auto-tea should be a warcrime tbf

tepid trellis
#

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

errant ferry
#

Some dungeons are better for sub right? Which ones would those be?

tepid trellis
#

dawn and streets

errant ferry
#

Cool ty

jagged rover
random hare
#

Ye sin without playing around it is just sub angle to me

#

U can play sub in arakara maybe too

!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.
random hare
#

I think most tanks dont know how to tank arakara for sin

#

So u just sub there imo?

#

Idk

#

Didnt try tet

jagged rover
#

ara-kara has a lot of built in funnel on the bosses, so that at least helps

random hare
#

Yet*

dusk stone
#

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

jagged rover
#

like even on last boss you can at least get 5 target CT rolling on the boss

random hare
#

I wouldn’t look at sin logs atm

jagged rover
#

better than nothing, but still probably less dam than sub

random hare
#

We know how much it does at max ilvl

tepid trellis
#

sub in arakara is fine, only "bad" part is after first boss

random hare
#

And its omega crazy

tepid trellis

the big fuckers with AoE dr

yeah singular focus destroys in that area

I think

Sin’s job there is to just nuke it

#

And u just chain the whole area

tepid trellis
#

yeah

random hare
#

Cuz like

tepid trellis
#

Assa is really good for it, where as sub is kinda not

random hare
#

No way sin does good dmg there

#

I tried with restealths

#

@tepid trellis can you share your mini hp bar pls, I tryed to copy it, but cant replicate the look

random hare
#

Its not faster

#

In that area

#

Like

random hare
#

Rly rly bad for sin to restealth there

#

You talking right side 2nd split?

random hare
#

U talking to me zorn?

dusk stone
#

Asking in general

#

I had weird Ara Kara as sub

random hare
#

If u mean after 1st boss arakara

dusk stone
#

I got 5.7 overall and I thought I played well

random hare
#

That area up to 2nd boss

dusk stone
#

Yeah

tepid trellis
#

first one of the dr fuckers is on the end of the bridge after first boss

random hare
#

U never restealth there kinda

#

Unless its ez to do so

#

Cuz ur job will be to nuke the big guy

#

Thats it tbh

dusk stone
#

I was mad, I'm like I've been doing rly well on meters and I get this derp stuff that run idk

tepid trellis
#

but yeah i think its a chainpull angle as Assa and just nuke the DR fucker

#

and let the others deal with the shit

random hare
#

Ye

#

Its not a good restealth area

dusk stone
#

We did right side and I prio scarab I think right side is just bad for sub

Is hm tazavesh diff loot than the keys version

#

Because that loot table is awful

void needle

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

ripe flame
dusk stone
#

It's all haste, the myth thing at the end is also haste mostly?

void needle
#

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

dusk stone
#

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

void needle
#

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

hazy breach
#

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

!mistakes

wicked joltBOT
#

Here are some common mistakes and how to spot them in your logs:

  • Go into your log, press Timelines and Casts to the right like this
  • Every single Flagellation & Blades window should look like the opener in this picture. Coup, shadowstrikes and eviscerates can move around a bit depending on procs, but all the other spells should be used exactly like this.
  • Make sure you always get 8 globals off during your shadow dances. You can hover over your shadow dances to see the exact times they start, and then see if your 8th spell is within 8 seconds of that.
  • If your shadow dance and/or symbols wasnt ready in time to be used like in the picture above you used too many in between your burst.
dusk stone
#

The guide, it shows an opener and you check if you're doing it right

hazy breach
#

Ig i should update the picture to include double coup, but it doesnt matter much as its replacing an eviscerate

tepid trellis
#

i should get into photoshop again so i can make pretty pictures

#

instead of fancy words

dusk stone
#

As a newer sub rogue I wanted more visual information when I learned

#

Like different blocks of the rotation

tepid trellis
#

either that or i make short youtube clips

#

probably the 2nd

#

since thats gonna take shorter time

dusk stone
#

Pictures better I think

#

There are lots of videos

hazy breach
#

Cant really do a picture of the rotation since it varies depending on sht procs

dusk stone
#

Yeah idk how to square the circle

#

But it's missing somewhere

hazy breach
#

Like not in a good "without much text" type way

tepid trellis
#

Eleem btw, im planning on make sub specific boss stuff (after prog), so if you come across something neat, hmu

dusk stone
#

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

tepid trellis
#

i used to spend 100s of hours on dummies

#

i still do on beta for a new expansion

#

I am also not new to mmos

now im only gonna do it on ptr cycles if something is substantially changing from patch to patch

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

short radish
#

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?

!burst

wicked joltBOT
#

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

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.
short radish
#

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

slender totem
#

i guess its just if i dump 2 coup hits and it comes up again thats where i ss?

#

cuz thats prob the procc

hazy breach
#

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

slender totem

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

no wokkas

#

you got this

coup is quite interesting it can recoup cps from shadowcraft on any hit

so as you use it 0.4 and 1 sec in

its at 0 and 0,4 and 0.9

could be

#

also could be changing depending on fight i guess

chrome fern
#

to save me the time trial and error, what cd on flag are you guys using as a marker to not dance

proven plover
#

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

dreamy badger
#

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

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

chrome fern
#

probably more likely that fight timers get lower, so it naturalises sin to end the fight on good timings?

dusk stone
#

this is mine atm

fierce minnow
#

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

fierce minnow

no its not

#

its gimmicky at best

dusk stone

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

dusk stone
#

i mean were not talking about external factors atm tho

fierce minnow
#

annihilate in damage amps

dusk stone
#

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

fierce minnow
#

50% better at what exactly

dusk stone
#

more damage per point

fierce minnow
#

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

dusk stone
#

im not sure about gimmicky but not being reliable would be accurate

chrome fern
#

the only stat weight that matters is weapon dps

dusk stone
#

yeah his weapon dps scaling is better too by 10%

fierce minnow
#

so i guess demon hunter > rogue

dusk stone
#

the charts reflect that

#

correlation isnt causation though, and while that is a true thing i just wonder how related it is

haughty rose
#

chrome fern
#

oh i didnt read

#

stat weights between classes is uncomparable

fierce minnow
#

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

dusk stone
fierce minnow
#

but that has nothing to do with scaling

#

its called balancing

chrome fern
#

a spells damage is made up of combo's of stat weights and attack power, they change the coefficients to balance

dusk stone
#

are stat weights one thing they change when they do aura buffs?

chrome fern
#

so you could double the attack power on a class, but the balance team will just make that coefficient on the spell half

fierce minnow
chrome fern
#

not an actual example, but you can gather how the classes arent normalised to each other

fierce minnow
#

stop looking at it

#

look at real world data

chrome fern
#

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

fierce minnow
#

thats not really related to that "issue"

#

our friend just wants to compare apples to oranges

#

and wonders why apples scale better than oranges

dusk stone
#

i mean its quite rude to assume stuff

#

i was just asking questions to get information

fierce minnow
#

you asked if its relevant info, i told you its not.

dusk stone
#

an answer without context isnt really helpful

#

but i get it

fierce minnow
#

thats your context

tribal blade
#

this is the answer

#

no need to argue

fierce minnow
#

i could summon whispyr who would love to talk about scaling

#

but that would incinerate this channel

tepid trellis
#

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

fierce minnow
tepid trellis
#

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

fierce minnow
#

scaling would only exist if blizzard suddenly decides that there will be no more balancing whatsoever and just ups the itemlvl each month

fair anchor
#

Is the Tea/CB choice in keys pure preference ? or it depends if you want more AoE of ST ?

chrome fern
#

i wish they never downscaled haste on dh, just let me cdr my blade dance to 0

tepid trellis
#

thne you would have enhances lava lash

#

at certain haste levels

#

where you just spam lash

limpid sage

#

ok cheers

fierce minnow
#

but yes, if you take anecdotal evidence from mop remix... demon hunters scale pretty good with insane amounts of stats

tepid trellis
#

or locks

fierce minnow
#

especially their movement speed

limpid sage
tribal blade
#

100% crit goes insanely hard on dh

tepid trellis
#

when a class goes too crazy

limpid sage
#

oh that's what you mean

tepid trellis
#

it gets the nerf bat

fierce minnow
tepid trellis
#

so its better "stat scaling" did not matter

fierce minnow
#

it only does in miniscule amounts in our reality

limpid sage
#

yeah makes sense

fierce minnow
#

each patch has a very narrow range of itemlvl

chrome fern
#

how much unscaled haste would be needed to make rupture the best sub dps button

fierce minnow
#

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

tepid trellis
fierce minnow
#

the only thing that matters is how does a spec perform in this current moment in time

limpid sage
#

I do wish they'd implement some haste scaling to our kit though

limpid sage
#

as another tuning knob

#

same way they did with ww monk

fierce minnow
limpid sage
tepid trellis
#

cuz they will mess it up

fierce minnow
tepid trellis
#

and its gonna end up like outlaw

also, enjoy having versa as your go to stat... makes your life alot safer

ye tbf I don't miss needing PI for a 100 parse

#

feels good not caring about it

chrome fern
#

pi is the reason i dont get 100's. i promise

fierce minnow
#

100%

#

promise

limpid sage

chrome fern
#

PI is 7% right?
