Interesting
When I have dance sod and sec tec ready do I supercharge sec tec and first coup or do I dance coup sod sec tec and then coup so the big hit gets supercharged?
guys, i saw some good macro for shadow dance with backstab....it was like sequence macro where first push is dance, second backstab....how do i do it?
Backstab/Shadow Dance/Tea Macro:yaml #Showtooltip Shadow Dance /cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow Dance /castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, nullThis will cast Shadow Dance and Tea(if talented) on first key press and Backstab on second key press.
call me out all u want 
Up until undermine blades didnt work on sectech
I seee
#showtooltip
/castsequence [stance:2] reset=stance:2 Backstab, null
/cast [stance:0] Shadow Dance
Is good as well
but i should first cast SD or no?
Can only press backstab once in dance (if you forget if you pressed or not)
You press it twice in succession yes
thanks
Or SD->finisher->backstab if you’re already full cp
Just be mindful that the stance trigger resets 8 seconds in, so if you press the macro with The First Dance talented you’re able to use Backstab again for some reason
Do you guys play full ST on Nexusking or like fuu's cleave build?

- Why is the Cold Blood and Secret Technique macro not recommended anymore?
When you macro these two together you often end up using it outside of your shadow blades window rather than inside of it, and since Subtlety gets so many damage modifiers inside its cooldowns its actually more damage use it only in Shadow Blades
(yes, even if you end up losing casts of cold blood). Ideally you use it on your second Secret Technique as it will be buffed by more stacks of Flawless Form and have higher Flagellation stacks.
how do we fix the CB not usable bug from swapping spec? Is it really just relogging?

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.

can someone explain to me why it doesnt use cb at 1.43 instead of 1.55? surely the symbols there is in pandemic so its fine to recast it for supercharged
or is it because it doesnt have any symbols charges left maybe
!macro
Subtlety Macros:
It is not recommended to macro most cooldowns, including Cold Blood+Secret Techniques and Dance+Symbols.
The following macros are an exception:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Thistle Tea```
```yaml
/cast Shadow Blades
/cast Blood Fury
/cast Ancestral Call
/use Araz's Ritual Forge
/use Unyielding Netherprism
/use Lily of the Eternal Weave
When using diffrent macros, make sure to keep the cooldowns on a seperate key.
Yes, basically need to do my job without extra stuff that I’m going to mess up for tonight, busy so I can’t practice for long on dummies before
Raid
No idea ill look into it, but you should be using cb there along with symbols
!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.
The shuriken storm between CDG casts is that just for during shadow blades or for every dance even outside of our Big CDs?
can i ask some noob questions?
no questions are banned apart from asking if bananas are okay on pizza
so ask away
because the answer is obviously yes
pickles + doritos + iced honey bun on a pizza hits ngl
Bro just cant handle how avant garde swedes are about their pizza toppings
what if you hollow out a banana and treat it as if it were a pizza dough?
may zeus's judgement be swift
fwiw stealthi im actually on your side here against the swedes, i much prefer bougie wood oven type pizzas than the standard swedish ones

banana burrito
I cannot speak because I have cheeseless pizzas 
weak
Does the sim not model this correctly or something? I noticed when I sim my character it still just uses SS in between CDG.
sim needs to learn 2 play clearly
blades runs out there
in dance tho
before the shadowstrike
Well it doesnt have blades
he said dance on aoe
So it doesnt do the thing youre supposed to only do in blades
blades in general
oh I don't think I can read maybe I have been reading dance this whole time
In sims its neutral to do it inbetween coups on aoe
whoopsies
Sorry bad screenshot.
banana, curry and peanuts is very common to be an option at swedish pizzerias for some reason
So i havent added it
think it's called afrikana
and they should be publicly humiliated for it
this is making me reconsider my trip to ikea today
there it procs shadowcraft
nah just get the meatballs, the meatballs are good
so it doesent need to storm
thats because u get full combopoints refund
Okay I see.
Also i found out why, The check to make sure its used on the second sectech and not the first one is checking for the second flagellation buff, but with the coups sectech is ready when the previous one has 1s left.
Sorry for the dumb questions.
but how can i support a business from a nation that supports banana pizza
so what would be the proper play there, cb?
The fix doesnt seem to impact numbers much on ST, small gain on aoe
Yes
alright, thank you for checking 🙂
Is banana pizza considered a dessert?
I would guess so ?
bin it.
But I have no clue - we don’t do that here

yo guys can someone take a look at those logs 😬
Whichever your sims tells you is better
My rl wants me to use cds on pillars in 2nd intermission at forgeweaver
💀
Idk thats probably not that bad, the amp is really short anyway
As youll be pushing it into last phase like halfway into it and he cancels it
I actually beat one of my tanks!
On pillar damage
Are you out of feral gaming?
Ye cat is only for splits
Raid tuning cracks me up. We ran N on the weekend for trinkets and tier. It’s insane how fast everything falls over already.
Yeah, did it on wednesday and bosses were dead in 2 minutes.

hello all!
anyone can give me some tips about soulbinder Naazindhri Mythic?
im very lost abou timers and bursts
for a quick overview u can check out lorrgs: https://lorrgs.io/spec_ranking/rogue-subtlety/soulbinder-naazindhri

the 1x-2x-3x etc is number of dances between the actual timers
timers being you actual cooldowns
how is sub to play in mythic plus keys? wanted to give them a try but wasn't sure what to expect with either assa or sub - was asking in the assa channel about their spec and received mixed feedback
It's very good
ohhh nice
I did hear that assa is simpler though, given that im kinda a beginner it may be easier but maybe sub will be more interesting to try and get good at
perfect
ok ty very much!
i would say base sin is easier, but you have to play with deathstalker which is the worst hero tree in the game to play with
base sub is harder, but our hero tree is fun to play with
oh, right I was looking at assa - you're talking about the mark that you have to constanttly track. I could see that actually becoming quite difficult to manage in keys
Finding your death mark target after tabbing for maximized rupture 💀
yeah mouseover rupture is kinda mandatory as sin
Its a bit silly it works like that, but what can you do
or else you're gonna have a really hard time finding your marked target in mass aoe
True that, or zugzug dont tab and let carnage do the work
do you macro tea? in m+
Yes macro it to dance
on higher keys you have to refresh ruptures because packs live longer than rupture durations
but yeah on lower keys you can kinda just rely on IC
ok ty
My plater mod uses a bright pink exclusively for my dsm target
Everyday struggles
just play sub
Makes it pretty easy to find
problem solved
TRUE
is our trinket preference antenna + netherprism for raid? I see a lot of people running ritual forge + netherprism
Either of those combos
pls give it to us hahahaa
i have been having a hard time playing sub again in keys though because it's rough to play sub with ~200ms
minor diff between them?
Netherprism is by far the best trinket
sin is a lot easier to play with high ms
did you see the eco dome picture i sent earlier?
the one with all the nimble?
and the actual overall dmg
oh yeah you were hard gapping the other dps haha
imagine if it was an actual key
Generally if the fight is short (<4 min) double on-use is better, if you need to delay your cds a bit (so for example on the soulbinder the pad on adds) then passive+antenna is better
iirc something like 4mil more than the other 2
it’s custom edited version of another one, just use the spellid for dsm and set a color you like
yeah sub actually feels a lot better once you get to higher keys
cool, thanks!
because it's easier to use cds
And mythic dimensius specifically antenna seems kinda unplayable on in last phase
So thats why rwf were not using it
makes sense
craziness
fwiw divine is an mdi competitor
also yes fuck hitboxes
Dimensius p1 hitbox
Divine is a gamer

sham + warr buff is so nasty for us
ahh i see
Sham is a bit overrated for sub, its only like 3%ish in sims on aoe, closer to 5% (which is what warrior is) on pure ST
Ye
^
it's annoying
haha sub and nimble pad
just holding down W
was doing some 12s for 3k yesterday and 18stack prism just solo kills entire pack in blades
kind of funny
lol, yeah. 18 prism is so good
I helped a guildie with weeklies yesterday, he (the tank) died twice right as i popped 18+blades so we wiped
I sometimes forget to use it in the open world and then some rare mob just doesn't get to exist anymore.
I was not a happy camper
tragic
yeah losing prism to other people messing up is really rough
or do u guys know any streamer i can look up the twitch of
everyone is playing assa
most people swap between the two specs in raid
Assa for single target fights
sub for the cleave fights
loom also has the damage amp below 50% so the better st execute spec is a lot better
yea but i really hate playing assa and never did before anyway
outside of one fucked up key
One of my raiders complained i was doing no damage to the adds on loom as assa
lol
ye got the same thing
So the next pull i hardswapped to them everytime just to see how much it would be
all i did to them was rupture snipe
And it was still pathetic
tbf
prot warrior
if played right
will beat dps
execute cleave
is not okay
on them
I was also assigned to the pylon soak opposite the tangles 
same
and for some reason
we had a team that refused to soak
so i had to backup
all the time
so had to cloak my own debuff off
and go soak it -.-.
u see
@tepid trellis
i have
lets say 13 stacks
do i refresh rupture
or do i eviscerate
if u shadowstep the inner tangle, can u hit both tangles with nimble?
in this situation
any gamer can answer this
im just curious on how valuable rupture is
whether its shadow rupture or not
pls answer if its a sim ans or feelcrafting
unless rupture is literally falling off next global im eviscerating
you snapshot symbols as well
on rupture?
nothing better than sending 18 stack prism on a huge pull in priory (without footmen)
sorry snapshot bad word
you just get the eviscerate in symbols too
can refresh rupture later
so i assume there is just no sub gamers for this boss
whats more important to press here

eviscerate or refresh rupture
fuck it i ball
are you on a boss or in AoE?
boss
Id rupture if it isnt up
not like an evis outside of dance does much
ye whats the time left on rupture here
u still rupture on all those?

rupture ya
and what about flag then
like
if i have few sec left of flag
well thats omega rare but
if i do lose rupture
On the soulbinder i hold cds only for big adds right??
And is there any tech fir forge?
flag gives mastery
For
so it buffs all finishers
Yes
- should refresh rupture either right before flag or do flag rupture so it lasts for entire cds to avoid having to refresh
- dance/symbols/flag all dynamically buff rupture so you want it up
0:22, 2mins, and whenever the other big spawn is
are we unbinding SB and Netherprism for specific damage amps?
I figure that out after kill that I griefed myself
whats the question
Dw i did the same
Did you kill forge yet
Got a mythic prism too, big pump
What did you play on council
I see
Outlaw is defo the best for it but i just dont have the gear for it
Sub/assa i doubt makes a diff
Also true
Forge is like first adds, 2min adds, amp and than we hold for next amp?
Yup
Forge prism forge and prism
still need to find a strat as my team pulls the boss away instead of t he ghost at 0:30
so camp ramp up flag and stuff properly
but adds are almost gone there no?
Most send flag at like 22s
I saw alternative strategy where they did not hold for second amp and than send last adds
So before the adds even spawn
Yeah you hit them with second dance I think
mhh this leads to the question, does targetswapping has a downside? i mean if i have max stacks of flag it should be w/e?
Its whatever anyway
dont need to hit your flag target
You dont need to hit the target with flag up
for it to do something
It's like deathstalkers mark if it was good
then ghost it is i think

fully loaded prism on bosses in keys is quite comical
Do u have macro to when u pres sd your first global is backstab?

Backstab/Shadow Dance/Tea Macro:yaml #Showtooltip Shadow Dance /cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow Dance /castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, nullThis will cast Shadow Dance and Tea(if talented) on first key press and Backstab on second key press.

yep

was my link not good enough? 

do we know how much of a dps loss it is to bind prism to blades and not safe it for later stages on raidbosses?
i mean in terms of stacks what are we talking here
oh
if you have amp, priority adds or big adds it's a loss
you save for 3 mins for those
idk if that makes sense, it's early
i understand what you mean
its just iam old and i tend to forget that i have to extra press it
and that's kinda when the forge dbl on use shenanigans come into play
just macro and forget
i started playing bandits guile with my prism WA lol
lol that's what I'm gonna do when I get one
differnt sounds on 9 and 18
Finisher prio in dance is Sectec>coup>Bp>evis on 4+ adds?
Bp on 4 or more yes
prayge for hero track in vault or from reclear
Yo this might actually sound cool. Maybe i should get something like that
scath u wanted the coup warning bar i made or?
We got some dumb caster weapon and trinkets instead
Smh my head
pls
And Shuriken to not proc unseen blade if we have the tier bonus up? would we use Shuriken as that CP builder with the proc up in dance and out of dance as well?
Specifically when you have blades and the 4p yes
won't hit mythic for another couple weeks

What does it do?
ah ok so more so when we have blades, and in dance as opposed to if those conditions exist out of dance
got you covered
assuming thats what you've attached it to or?
I died on loom with prism stacks
Not bad, tanks refuse to pull boss out of shit and got cornered
yes
you know whats annoying is resetting bosses before pull clears prism stacks
can just remove the custom

Pulling the boss resets them too
So it doesnt matter
pretty green 
If you play double on use (forge + prism) and the boss fight is only like 4 minutes do you just send the second SB with no trinket, to preserve stacks, or is that a waste?
On specifically 4 minutes you would hold flag+blades for 2 minutes and use it with forge then use prism at 3:30
Since delaying isnt losing you any casts
In keys you guys are using prism at what 8-10 stacks?
forge+prism spreadsheet gaming 
You can but using it at 18 is more fun
Ahhh ok, so hold for 30 seconds just to get forge again and prism last, thanks!
NO
depends on the key / timings. nuking boss with 18 is very useful
So forge prism really is just op huh
Not really
Antenna is very strong too
The double on-use is good aswell, but its definitely getting overhyped relative to the other alternative
got a sac, have to mess with it. I dont feel like I get a ton of extra umph from forge, but it's also pug keys so having one more timing to worry about isn't ideal to me
Are we supposed to have 2 different macros for SD or can we just use the 2nd one
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Thistle Tea
/cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow Dance
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
just a visual representation of when the last hit of coup is compared to you being released from the global cooldown
Especially for aoe/keys, our regular dances are pretty strong so giving up like 15% damage on them by using a double on-use feels kinda bad
as to not get caught by the late refund
In ST more of our damage is tied to cds
Oh damn I was thinking of doing this but never got to it. Sick ty
got almost title with hekili so idk it felt good tbh one can play like this and another can play however he/ she wants
i just did another key and does it seem like some coups are refunding quicker or am i trippin
damn diggin up
coup does 3 hits
all 3 of them can proc it
so
ahhh
me stupido
even with removed custom options :-x
but thats prolly just my ui amirite
i think it's tied to his ace widgets. trying to figure out where it's calling it now
man i love it so much that u got just one vod on youtube on that one boss i gotta prep for 😂
just happened to be the only boss i recorded
so we use CB with the second sectech in the opener/ with big cds.. but just send it on the first sectech when just using symbles and shadow dance?
it helped me alot on undermine
or only use CB with the big cds?
u got rid of this yeh?
Only big cds
i have a coldblood/tech macro and i noticed on wowhead it says "When macroing Cold Blood and Secret Technique, make sure to put it on your stealth bar!", why is stealth bar needed?
Otherwise it wont be up for the big cds
so CB sits off cd for 45 seconds at a time?
You can get better procs sometimes so it would sit like 43-47 secs yes
if you drift at all its cooked
interesting okay thank you
cuz your stealhtbar = dance bar and you dont wanna use it outside

so we only use tech inside of dance?
sorry i'm incredibly new to rogue xD
Generally yes
afaik you should just use it with symbols and dance
Almost only inside dance
just did. tried to comment it out first and wasnt happy
ah ok that's good to know
if misplayed or in rare occasions it might happen that u can toss one without
You’ll learn when you can use it outside
yeah fully removing fixed it
yeh it just whats used to snap it into place so it auto adjusts to the lenght of my wa bar
Theres some situations where you can send sectech outside dance, BUT if you screw it up its really really bad and the upside is very very small
So unless youre insanely familiar with sub just dont bother with it
ah ok thanks ^^
also, i was watching a m+ video of sub and on the guy's bars, there was one button (no macro text) that was backstab out of dance/stealth but when he entered dance it turned into shadowstrike
anyone know what that is?

Backstab/Shadow Dance/Tea Macro:yaml #Showtooltip Shadow Dance /cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow Dance /castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, nullThis will cast Shadow Dance and Tea(if talented) on first key press and Backstab on second key press.
probably a stance macro for backstab/shadowstrike
or on his regular bar is backstab
and his stealth bar its strike
ah yeah ofcourse
all same buttons except for that one, just confused me that's my bad
is there some kind of concept or need to delay coups so that we get a huge bunch of flawless stacks in cds? just checkin stealthis vod and his 25 flawless peak 😂
you delay coup for 20 sec for flag
So if coup is up and your flag has 13s cd left as an example
You literally just backstab 
Exact same sequence as any other burst
Flag > rupture > dance+symbols > backstab > blades+sectech >
i saw that change as well, didnt we use blades after sectech recently cuz of the delayed impact?
kk thats what ive been doin
Well before s2 blades didnt work on sectech
@hazy breach if its possible to send second sectech during first dance window (opener)... should we send it?
In s2 they fixed it, so we can use blades before sectech
Yes
Send sectech asap
its really tight isnt it?
a bit yeah
who is a good youtuber to watch to help me out with sub
im used to whispyr but he doesnt make sub
Shindig is pretty good
kinda gotta get a bit lucky with sht/coups to fit it more comfortably
did sub change at all since 5 months ago?
Depends on how lucky you are
cz thats when his last guide was
He has an 11.2 changes guide too
nothings really changed since then
very minor stuff
You could just watch both
so it should still be pretty relevant
aight cool thanks
Sooo on paper i could macro forge trinket first and prism 2nd and i dont have to think about anything no? Since it has 2 min cd
If you never end up delaying your cds for 30s yes
not really, you wont always be cd'ing every 90 sec
you have times where you need to hold
Oh ye thats a factor :/
u should symbols again for the 2nd sectec in TFD, right?
yes
Yes sectech should always be supercharged
If he has the habit of pressing trinket before blades it should work
I dont wanna make 2 new binds
send help
Nvm misunderstood
Can have one trinket macroed with blades and one other bind
Since if you press your other bind with a trinket you cant use the trinket inside the blades macro
can do that too
im barely not able to fit a second secret tech in my FD what am i fucking up
You dont always get that
oh
is there a bug with tricks of the trade or am i just buggin?
You just send sectech when its ready
do you still send cold blood on the secont secret tech even if its in a new dance
Yes
i cast it and it doest give the hour buff
You need to trigger it'
Tricks is a 30s buff that when you attack starts a 6 second buff that redirects threat
Trickster makes the 6 second buff into 60 minutes
eleem, for taz hardmode, would u play CB for every boss?
ohh i thought we use blades later cuz it still applies and we get like 1 global more blades 😅 maybe ive screwed my whole dmg for quite some time now
Its fine to use it like 0.5-0.9s after sectech too
A lot still do because of muscle memory
But you dont need to, its neutral in sims to use it before
And using it before is way easier
Because the initial hit of sectech is about the same as the extra global of blades youd get
u might also lose out on a global
does the dmg breakdown look good? i only started playing sub yesterday
doing mechanics or whatever
for how long do I hold on araz?
flurry waay to low
692 ilvl on a +9 floodgate
thats mine from a +10 eco dome
Looks like too much BP spam
flurry very low, ss very low, storm suspiciously high
maybe not enough dance usage
You are right, but its hilarious how 2.4% is insanely high for storm 
hmm should i not be using storm as much?
In dance you should strike
banger spell
bro if it did damge
i remember when storm was top dmg in m+

blades is also very low
i might have auto piloted and used storm during dance instead
is that it?
yeah you don't wanna do that
im still practicing sub so ill take any criticism xd
would you storm in dance with rotten in aoe?
oh yeah i have a question about coupe
its always over bp regardless of target count right?
Yes
i still dont know what it does exactly but i just press it
Big damage and big buff
its an eviserate on crack
when i was learning from the wowhead guide it just says press coupe so i press coupe
Very wise

can never go wrong with that
thanks for the tips everyone
the only time i dont push coup is if im about to enter a dance window
then i push coup in the dance instead
spreading ruptures is one option
but if u have sectec and coup ready
in single target, sectec first then coup i believe
in aoe i think its coup then sectec then 2nd coup?
Can someone explain me why Салатикок play rotten and CB in m+
he prefers it
idk eleem can correct me there
im always doing secret first idk about the optimizations or if i should change anything
if you wanna 100% fw on full AoE
yea just sectec first
yes sir
then spend ur coups
Can someone explain what is the buff that stacks for??
Shadow techniques
If you play rotten doing some death symbol + dance > bs > sectech > fok is valid?
For macabre stack + fw
How do they work? Read the tooltip and is confusing
When you auto attack you get stacks
ur not alone there 
When you use a builder you get more cp based on how many stacks you have
And then during symbols if you have 7 or more stacks up when you press a finisher you get all 7 cp immediately so you can back to back finisher
Lets summon fuu to explain ShT again
So if I have 5 stacks and I use secret tech I will get 5 cb right after?
No
no
if u have coup up going into cds, do u sectech storm coup storm coup to not waste escalating stacks
You dont want to double storm no
you need 7 stacks when you press a finisher during symbols for it to refund anything
so u just take the l on the eb i guess
Only when on symbols is when I get some if i have 7+?
Ideally you should get one of them refunded
So you dont haveto take the L
But yes if you dont you just tank it
thats when a finisher can refund them yes
other than it its entirely passive and builders consume stacks
to give more combo points
realz please add 4 stacks to eb cap ong fr fr
aint happenin
It just looks complicated but in practice its very straight forward
shouting into the abyss
Poison toggle first
Shadowcraft refund is the complicated bit
are ppl switching to sub in m+ right now with bugs? i cant really tell how bad they are
in general is it better to ignore pooling sht stacks and just keep cdr rolling in a boss fight?
assa bugs i mean
my assas sims way higher but i cant really tell if its better
you'll pool sht going into flag sometimes
if your cdr is set for it
Some are, but really sub is just good regardless
yeah I'm getting invited to keys way easier as sub and I'm lovin it
i see thanks
i played sub for everything last season so i might try it out in m+ again
thought it would be fun to try sin tho
if coup up and dance up in 15~sec do you hold or send both coup outside of dance?
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet | Github Tracker
the only time you hold coup is for flag
🐛 
Otherwise you just send
good thx
20
ty
thats my reason for living when the people that reroll away from assa cuz of bugs, realize that sub is even more bugged

its like a sweet desert
They merely adopted the bugginess.
ong
We were born in it
any idea why ppl running season2 build still? is it still better for some keys i dont see any top sub rogues running the tea no cb build
People just play different shit
if you ignore DS entirely like Blizz is there's still almost 20 sub bugs
maybe we need a HOLY FUCK WE'RE BUGGED Whispyr video
i mean surely ppl that play 12 hrs a day would hear about a better build right
inc 3 hour sub bug video
time to tell shindig to make one
ong
cuz i wont xD

the two builds are so close it jsut comes down to personal pref
the tldr for all of is
sub talents all suck
so doesent fucking matter what you play
Tea more aoe, CB more ST
i mean having the extra energy is nice
with rotten you storm in dance to apply weakness right
i swear i heard u did that
i still do it 
Idk you dont need to when you have coups
i like the 100% fw on massive pulls
Since youre gonna be storming for that anyway
BIG weakness finder
I need to kill the muscle memory of strike sectech storm bp
i keep proccin craft on them
bro my coups always back to back no builder should i reroll?
we are not the same eleem
Well ye if you have 5 sht when you sectech you can just storm
I also enjoy proccing FW on everything it hits
so storm even at full cp b4 2nd coup?
time to whip out the shiv
No dont storm at full
but I also enjoy being able to play sub in keys and not sit in LFG for a hour
no
shiving for danse inc
toss
shuriken toss for the learned
so if shadow techniques or whetever procs just send it back to back
shuriken toss my beloved
like in main cd window
you only storm if you don't get a refund
otherwise there's no point and you're wasting cp
with blades up*
I’m messing around with sub is it normal to burst high and than drop let’s say I burst to 6Mil but drop to 1.7-2M (700ilvl) am I miss managing CD’s?
bro i might just go full 1 button assistant off that bro this shit too much smoke
!design
Subtlety is designed to be a spec with highs and lows. During your cooldowns you do immense burst and have plenty of buttons to spam but conversely outside of symbols and dance you do not do any damage whatsoever. This means that having some periods of "afk" downtime where you do not press a button because you're out of energy is the intended way the spec plays. As long as its not happening inside your cooldowns (flag/blades/dance/symbols) its not a problem at all, and especially nothing that having more haste would "fix".

Ok so that out of burst window feeling sluggish and nothing much to do is normal
Literally just do the opener listed in the guides every 90s and you'll be playing sub almost at like 90% efficiency
just play assa lol
the pacing of sub isn't for everyone if you wanna gogogo
i am unsure how to use coupe outside of dance in aoe situations. Do you just keep it for the next dance in that case? or just whatever as long as it cleaves trough nimble?
But Outlaw is GOGOGOGOX2
you just rip it
ty
as long as fazed is on the target
Highkey this whole class is just play for sec tec cdr
tab*
2 coup go pewpew
Wtb smokebomb
forgive me, wall of text.
is there some bug related to shadowcraft cp refund timing and the gcd and coup and the 4p tierset?
watching imexile rwf dimensius kill and there's a moment in the opener that I can't find an explanation for:
- he uses coup, with 5 stacks of Shadow Techniques, 5 cp stored currently (all cds running)
- he does not get a cp refund (because you'd need 7 stacks Shadow Techniques to get the refund)
- he continues mashing his coup button for the second coup from 4p tierset, no other inputs that I can see
- he gains 2 stacks of shadow techniques (total 7 now), does not use a builder, the 7 stacks disappear and become combo points, and he uses the second coup.
like he got the cp refunded from the first coup... super late
end result is coup -> coup even though he had only 5 stacks on the first cast
definitely no builder in between, or he would have stacks of Shadow Techniques left over and not burn all 7
yes coup can give delayed refunds
its a 3 part hit
at 0 then 0.3-4 and 0.9
and all of them can refund it
ok ty for explaining
The worst delayed refunds are the ones where youre st 9 sht but the refund never hit so u wait a half sec and it still doesnt hit and now youre scared to use a builder so u dont and then you never sht refund and you lost a global
storm last second of distract bomb
Any truers?
oh wait nvm it triples the cd
its why he has a WA bar show up under his buffs, that shows when the last hit of coup lands so he can prepare if he gets a late refund or not
does sub need restealths as much as assa?
nah
no
needs 0 restealths
ok, just didn't know when i was tanking if i had to think about them, ty
im new to the sub rogue world, what talents do i use in m+?
the only thing to really consider for sub as a tank is pulling around sub's cooldowns
now i need a fuckin coup wa brb
does secret tech do the same on the delayed hits or nah
no
coup is coded as 3 eviscerates so they each have a chance to refund
sectech clone hits are from a non-player entity that creates fuckery
on a professional level
I also create fuckery on a professional level
tfd can be nice to get in m+
if you do get a restealth maybe consider not insta jumping into next pack to proc it
!wa
ive noticed this means sectec clones dont benefit from the damage amp on streets menagerie boss btw
very sad
i want to see big sectec number
lovely
!guide
thanks Akaari
When i try to do anything with this buggy spec smh
kind of hope sub gets a redesign next xpac and secret tech goes away
I don’t
Just hope they do smth about all the multiple hits
We don’t need a full scale rework
I have a stupid question: if we get a refund during coup. Should we coup immediately after (4set) or still queue shuriken storm in between.
if they could finish the 10.1.5 one that would be great
idk man i feel like its been the cornerstone of our gameplay for long enough lol
What exactly
wat.
fucking hot take monday bois
secret tech
True friend
Depends if sec tech is up imo. But if u have cps for back to back coups id do it
maybe im just washed tho
sectech wasn't even that good until relatively recently
What instead of sectech tho ?
idk, i always sec tec before.
if you get a refund you coup again
you only storm if you need to build between coups in blades
With how cdr works u will have moments when ST will come back up after first coup. U only storm if u need the cps which u dont since it got refunded
Ok, i was following the message like a good boi saying to shuriken storm to free up unseen blade but i was like "Ye but it's so quick sometimes, does not make sense"
Also i just want to thanks everyone in this discord and the search function that answered so many questions for a new rogue. Whispyr as well even if he is not happy in his latest video about bugs.
Do you guys use timers on your screen for your dances on bosses like M forgeweaver or soulbinder or just try to memorize based on when you feel you need damage?
In general its "if adds are up press dance"
If adds arent up or coming up shortly, dont press
Okay this helps alot because the timers always confuse me.
Especially coming from outlaw where we just perma send lol.
ye some people just find the timer stuff easier to digest
As a new sub rogue, the one singular change I'd making dance and symbols together. Micro managing the CD differences between the two is probably the single most annoying thing to me.
melting bosses with a full stck of prism may be one of the best feelings in this game
But the gist of it is that you wanna send dance on adds
And on the damage amp (for araz)
could someone explain whats the correct target count for m+ in and out of dance? i feel like i dont do enough whenever i bp
4 targets or more bp
.
buds, reading Fuu's recommended enchants for raid/mythic+ if I want to do both, which enchant do I go with?
new member takes
I like sec tech. Feels good to hit a mega big crit sec. 😂
Current sub is the most fun i’ve had with sub. Just keep double coup in the new hero talent.
/macros
How often do you symbols without dance or dance without symbols up, in between your big bursts
Like kyveza’s lines
kyvezsa animations 
Yes current sub goes hard, to me the double coup is kinda whatever but i fucking love netherprism man
Being able to double it and give it to the next guy is peak
yeah its like
the nuclear button burst
netherprism is sick
idk double coup is cool but coup has so many wack problems with it
SoonTM
I got given a normal prism week 1 but i think they were trying to cuck me. Little did they know prism was op
On Loomithar when do u send it?
delayed refund, longer gcd feels bad, 6 hits instead of one big one, overcapping escalating thing
I was sending it at the 3 min mark and then should have it stack again during execute
For loom
if it was legit just a big slap eviscerate id like it more
yeah I'm really, really hoping the multi-hit thing goes away in midnight
for coup, sectech, shadowed finishers
I like the 3 hits the sound effect even the delayed st refunds are cool.
creates problems for us gameplay-wise and problems for them coding-wise
you can have the animation/sfx be whatever
that can be agnostic of the damage event
like rupture is a three part attack
animation-wise
Is there a wa That tracks when you are able to get another stack of prism? Sometimes i’m at 17 and i’m hoping i do hit the 18 before i press it.
Ye but when you go coup > coup > strike > evis > strike > coup
That double proc does feel nutty
Do you loose stacks on death (Ala spymaster) with prism?
ya but imagine the coups were just regular 1s gcd eviscerates that slapped
just set condition to Time Since Stack Gain
Yes but i am no wa maker or know how to start
Yes
Yes
Ye ofc
Thank you I was going to jump off the cliff to try. Saved me 20 gold.
The last time I played rogue we had nightblade (I think it was called) dot to maintain. When was that?
legion
and bfa
ye
kinda weird tbh
Turn flag into netherprism. 
that would be the absolute sickest talent addition known to man
Combine them both into one button.
and fits sub perfectly as a cooldown
get rid of flag. We don’t need it
Blades with an actual controllable CD to go along with it is peak sub
Put power back into dance
like unironically if they took out flag or goremaws and gave us a sub-coded netherprism talent
So yeah on the fights like soulbinder where we delay our main CDs and start with raw dance, we would dance every time adds spawn and then just send our main CDs again as soon as they come back around 2 mins?
lol if only
make it a choice node if need be
yeah
is this late refund from coup inconsistent? (testing on dummy + reviewing clips. pre-stacking 6 shadow techniques and I'll go to 8 immediately after coup and not get refunded. symbols active ofc)
if you delay flag on opener you'll have it for big add wave ~2mins
Ty
and can melt
I feel like combo has potential to come back
Devs have mentioned it won’t come back
And when Blizz says something won’t happen
It usually happens
can be very inconsistent yes
It refunds on each coup hit
Hi guys the rotation for this patch is the same of the last patch?
Actually though
its brilliant if you think about it
In my experience, I’ve never seen coup NOT refund within the 1 ish second window of it’s delayed attacks if I meet the sht
would be cool
Anyone here use luxthos weak aura?
!wa
have seen it a few times, but quite rare
like the 7 dungeons i did today it happened twice
Is it happening at the start of a dance
im strugelling with cdr in m+. If i get to much cdr on dance do i just send it without sod?
Like you dance sod coup
prism and soul cap talents would be the biggest windmill-dunk from half court this games ever seen
there is def some weird jank with casting coup very shortly after or before sod
happens to me a decent amount in flag blades
Hi, i have some question about coup whats on my mind. So I seen that raidbots quicksim is spending coup while out of blades on whatever combopoints, is that correct? Cuz it was what i was doing and it seemed right to me, but want to be sure bc i havent seen it nowhere writed down directly on guides
Because I know Shadowcraft has a weird bug where sometimes on repeat dance/symbols or if you finish too fast after sod you don’t get a refund
It’s not just coup
yeah its not
