You dance when dance is over

#

And you symbols when sectech has 10s or less left

#

Which does not happen at the same time

drowsy moon
#

ohh

#

okay I ll hit some dummies

#

thanks eleem

warped gust
#

!wa

drowsy moon
#

does use 14 work for trinkets

short radish
#

yes

#

13 is top

#

14 is bottom

drowsy moon
topaz venture
#

do you guys symbols sec outside of dance in m+?

#

i guess around the point of making sure u have 2 dances

short radish
#

maybe like once or twice a key

#

and i usually regret it

void hound
#

in fact, i found myself short on symbols charges sometimes

peak prawn
#

!loot

topaz venture
#

whats the timer we look at for when we stop sending symbols / dance to setup our next flag shadow blades window?

#

Was it 14 secs on symbols with 1 charge up?

#

and dance i guess its hard to know due to cdr

#

Maybe 1 dance up with 30 seconds on cd

swift tinsel
#

you want 1.5 dance charges and 1 symbols charge with ~10-12 sec left on 2nd charge cd

topaz venture
#

30 second downtime sounds rough, but makes sense

swift tinsel
#

you'll still be sending finishers and when you get closer to flag you'll stop using them to bank shadow techniques stacks for your burst window

#

just want to make sure to hold coup if you get it for ~20sec out from your next flag

graceful osprey
#

The downtime period isn’t that bad, it’s actually rather chill

swift tinsel
#

yeah its part of the ebb and flow of sub damage

halcyon pendant
#

some poeple get itchy at it, they cant resist sending that extra dance

shell bramble
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
cunning notch
#

i dont fully understand ' holding coup ' do you simply not evicerate and wait for 20 seconds ?

swift tinsel
#

yep

cunning notch
#

that feels awful

#

:/

swift tinsel
#

only if your dance/sectech are going to be ready for flag

#

I mean its that and a burstier cd window or send it and less bursty cd window

cunning notch
#

what do we optimally press then ? rupture and bp ?

hazy breach
#

Its not like were casting many spells to begin with anyway

swift tinsel
#

^

hazy breach
#

Nothing

cunning notch
#

for a whole 20 seconds

swift tinsel
#

become a humble shadow techniques farmer

cunning notch
#

that feels like eternity

hazy breach
#

I mean you backstab

swift tinsel
#

and then 20 seconds later blast to the moon

hazy breach
#

But its like every 4th second or something

swift tinsel
#

sounds like an easy choice

vale osprey
#

What kind of damage increase does the shadow techniques build-up represent?

flint parrot
#

!fuu

cunning notch
#

just overcap backstab till u can coup dance yada yada

wicked joltBOT
hazy breach
#

Even if you were to press buttons you get to hit like 1 extra eviscerate in those 20 seconds

swift tinsel
#

a stinky non-dance evisc

#

boo we hate them

cunning notch
#

mmm

swift tinsel
#

gets out-damaged by an UB hit

hazy breach
#

In aoe you wouldnt though, since you get to press way more buttons

hazy breach
#

Then you'd just bp

swift tinsel

His fault for selecting the talent.

drowsy moon
#

time to remove side wheels like learning wheels guys

swift tinsel
drowsy moon
#

I ll unbind my dance symbols macro

swift tinsel
#

deserves his fate

#

alright do I open rogue vault first to rip off the Not Getting Prism band-aid or last to let the anticipation build

steel jolt
#

Anticipation

graceful osprey
#

Wait until next Monday

swift tinsel
#

that is thematic

#

rip Anticipation

cunning notch
#

un macroing symbols and dance made me feel like i wasnt pressing symbols at all at some times

topaz venture
swift tinsel
graceful osprey
#

The thing that stores extra combo points

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

when you use a builder, it will pull from those stacks to add combo points up to 7

cunning notch
lilac stag
#

enjoy subpar dps

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

if you talent Shadowcraft, casting symbols increases the rate at which you gain them and if you cast a builder and have enough stacks, it will fill your combo point bar

drowsy moon
swift tinsel
#

so you can send back-to-back finishers

drowsy moon
#

did u use photoshop for it

swift tinsel
#

yeah I made one for each class discord

drowsy moon
#

wait no way

swift tinsel
#

this one has a version with a santa hat

drowsy moon
#

do u have a mage one

#

without the head

lilac stag
#

@swift tinsel why are they calling for your head?

swift tinsel
#

nah I don't think I made the mage one

swift tinsel
lilac stag
#

I guess

swift tinsel
#

none of them are headless

#

just layered

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

Sounds like you aren't really gaming it anymore

#

which I wasn't too surprised by

#

moment

swift tinsel
#

Eleem made a good point about it a bit ago

#

relative strenght of strike/ub and increased coups vs flat bp damage

#

which makes sense

lilac stag
#

Ok so BP needs a buff

swift tinsel
#

if they buff BP to take prio over coup in aoe I will burn down irvine

hollow spear
#

Coup needs a nerf

#

Clearly

lilac stag
#

won’t take much with the about of rain they get

swift tinsel
#

yeah nature will do it for me

#

manifesting

hollow spear
#

They should limit flawless stacks at 15

swift tinsel
#

shhhhhhhh

#

no

#

never

shush

Laughs in deathstalker

honest basin
#

O_O

swift tinsel
#

Deathstalker laughs at itself

lavish lodge
#

How is Deathstalker, leveling a sub alt and the gameplay appeals to me over trickster but I keep reading it’s markedly worse

lavish lodge
#

How much worse

lavish lodge
#

Rip

short radish
#

you will thank us later

swift tinsel
#

salt the earth around it worse

#

kicks puppies worse

lavish lodge
#

I don’t plan on mythic raiding or anything

swift tinsel
#

if you spec deathstalker your pc explodes

uneven scarab
#

they gotta completely redo ds if its gonna stay in the game imo

swift tinsel
#

out of shame

uneven scarab
#

real

short radish
#

do you plan on waking up one day and thinking "you know what I should love myself more and look after myself"

graceful osprey
#

12.0 for sure copium

short radish
#

because when you do

hazy breach
#

You can obviously spec into it but it feels bad to play and the numbers are far below trickster

lavish lodge
short radish
#

well you can start now

swift tinsel
#

lmao

short radish
#

look after yourself homie

swift tinsel
#

true and actually

short radish
#

treat yourself right

#

and play trickster

#

and also treat yourself right

lavish lodge
#

Lemme put it this way I played ret in tbc classic

swift tinsel
#

not speccing Deathstalker is the ultimate self-care move

hollow spear
#

I'm playing deathstalker sometimes, to be more appreciative of how bad things could be

swift tinsel
#

I wanted to see how bad it was the other day without shadowcraft

#

I had to take a cold shower and call my therapist after

bright briar
lavish lodge
#

I just like the class fantasy of shadow damage based sub woth gloomblade and such and it seems every aspect of that is p bad rn

short radish
#

you know how there's the age old arguement of who is in more pain, Man being kicked in the balls or Woman giving birth?

The answer is sub rogues playing deathstalker

swift tinsel
#

yeah it had the potential to be cool

hollow spear
#

If I knew what you did as your therapist I wouldn't have picked up

swift tinsel
#

fantasy-wise

#

but the implementation was very scuffed

#

would have offered sub a chance to be a funnel spec again which was a cool prospect

uneven scarab
#

Fantasy wise its my favorite, execution was terrible bruh

swift tinsel
#

it also doesn't help trickster is really good for sub as far as augmenting its base kit

#

so the comparison will always slant away from DS

short radish
#

i think maybe the ONLY content deathstalker could be good for

#

is open world

uneven scarab
#

Yeah haha, literally solves most the problems subs had in the past

night sparrow
#

Sham buff is ~5% more dmg in m+ right ? Or even ST ?

short radish
#

since you can consume DN stack a lot more

hollow spear
#

Ever since I told my wa to light up at 5 cp when I have coup, it won't refund me anymore

short radish
#

note thats open world not delves

hollow spear
#

The world is cruel

short radish
#

FUCK IT THATS IT IM COOKING UP A DS BUILD FOR OPEN WORLD

#

and theres nothing you can do to stop me

lavish lodge
#

I’d be ok with trickster if at least like brew/gloomblade/etc were good but all of those are bad too?

hollow spear
#

Take away him pc

Fimbulvintr clearly not normally

Just don’t use goremaw’s bite…I mean you “can” but yeah

holy shit this build is going to be so garbage

#

im not taking flag

#

Take goremaw

swift tinsel
#

iirc its fairly competetive in m+ (db build)

hollow spear
#

You cannot not play goremaw

night sparrow
hollow spear
#

Yes

lavish lodge
swift tinsel
#

good move

lavish lodge
#

I didn’t even need to look at a sheet

#

I was just like “but y tho”

swift tinsel
#

there was a world where it was relevant but it is not this one

lavish lodge
#

If econ was important rather just spec tea I feel like

swift tinsel
#

yeah it kinda solves a problem we don't have

graceful osprey
#

I mean it’s kinda cool for laughs and giggle and something different to press lol

swift tinsel
#

I think pvp used it at one point idk if they still do

#

that's not my jurisdiction

hazy breach
#

Highest simming aoe build for deathstalker skips death perception and sectech

At least while leveling, energy has not seemed to be a particularly large concern after shadow techniques

and it makes sense

#

I’ve got a question about trinkets. I currently have a Champion Netherprism and a heroic Lily and Sacbrood. Sim says that double onuse is about 45k higher dps is this the move or play one passive?

kind river
#

Do you change your gameplay at all for massive uncapped pulls? Like the murlocs in gambit

short radish
#

wait holy shit what if i also drop sectech

swift tinsel

!coup

wicked joltBOT
#

Coup de Grace Optimizations:

  • **Number 1: **You can stop using finishers ~10 seconds before your Flagellation comes up. This is to build up Shadow Techniques for your cooldowns.
  • Number 2: ONLY with the 4 set of the new tier! -- During Shadow Blades or with 4+ targets, if you have the 4 set buff active and need to build combo points 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.
honest basin
#

What the fuck is 🅱️ro cooking

graceful osprey
kind river
#

It could be because I have netherprism so I don't get a trinket on the opening pull but I felt underwhelming on the first big murloc pull of gambit

queen kraken
kind river
#

Rest of the key was fine, I didn't play any different

rancid verge
#

!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.
short radish
#

okay so hear me out right

#

in open world

graceful osprey
short radish
#

mobs die way too quickly

#

to get any dance cdr back

#

because of how sub works

#

and all the power in dance

#

without dance you hit like a wet noodle

honest basin
short radish
#

so we need to take power out of dance

#

and take advantage of subterfuge

#

think about it right

swift tinsel
#

yeah but if you don't take dance how do you use our goated Lingering talent

short radish
#

you strike a mob with 5 or 10 mill hp

#

then dance symbols sectech

#

it does

#

then what do you do for the next mob

#

thats 30 yards away

#

okay sure you can shadowstep to it

#

but then afterwards

#

youre danceless

#

and sectechless

honest basin
#

Man I'm going back to bed it's too early for this

rocky ocean
#

No bitches

short radish
#

okay so i haven't cooked up no sectech/dance yet

swift tinsel
#

mans cooking dingoes on the barbie

short radish
#

but basically you take subetrfuge

#

and master of shadows

#

so you can burst down a mob because you always have a DN stack

#

6 seconds of still being able to cast shadowstrike

lilac stag
short radish
#

and do another evis

rocky ocean
short radish
#

fuck

#

yes

#

thats my 2nd cook

#

this is only round 1

#

its good

#

im gonna use this on reset

#

when i do WQs

lilac stag
#

what about incorporating PvP talents ?

short radish
#

wait but then i cant take shadowfocus

short radish
#

that was the reason for sblade

scenic plover
short radish
#

then you take these

rocky ocean
patent lichen
#

Am i bleedmaxxing ??

short radish
#

15 seconds of blade + 30 seconds of 30% increased shadow damage

#

which is like 50% uptime

rocky ocean
short radish
#

ye hold up

#

back to the ovens

#

is there ever a world that lingering shadow can acutally do damage because of the 30% increased damage from lingering darkness

#

and then 10% from dark brew

#

thats 40% increased damage on gloomblade + lingering

kind river
#

You don't change anything about the standard opener on massive uncapped pulls do you? Aside from of course spending non-coup finishers on black powder

plush roost
short radish
#

just send black powder

plush roost
#

Step aside assa new king in town

kind river
#

Maybe I should run tornado for gambit? My opener felt a little weak

patent lichen
kind river
#

Also running a prism so that doesn't help

#

No trinket for first stacked pull

plush roost
#

First pull of gambit is fake pad anywau

kind river
#

Fair

plush roost
#

Its 2 big packs of 60m hp mobs and 2 actually important casters

#

Kill caster murlocs and chaingle every time

#

So if youre trying to be efficient, you burst the 2 caster mobs and then keep doing storm/powder and dance sequences

kind river
#

That's another question I have as well I guess

#

At any point during cds do you actually start using storm over shadowstrike?

plush roost
#

Only once between coups

kind river
#

Besides the filler to do 2nd coup

#

Ok yeah

patent lichen
plush roost
#

Strike > storm

plush roost

#

Lmao

with this, shouldnt there be a 2nd coup?

hazy breach
#

Well you keep ruptures up while out of dance yes

kind river
plush roost
#

Only at 6min when the third meta occurs and shes jumping around do u hold flag

Otherwise send on cd

well sub has to feel better than assassination on them

hazy breach
#

Ill just hold the 4:30 one for 5 min on reclear this week

plush roost
#

Thats what im thinking

short radish
#

Okay I have cooked. Basically the build takes all of the power out of dance and doesn't really do much with it BUT you weren't really doing much with it in open world anyway.

You basically press shadowblades off cooldown and pray to do enough damage through non amped eviscerates from consuming the DN and DSM stacks. This also takes goremaws bite for even more finishers.

For anyone who wants to try this after the reset the build is here - https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/rogue/subtlety/deathstalker/DANURFFRRRVVFkoFCVBPVUFUUFFFFEQSJRQBREFVVUCUABhWoJ

Note you must be warmode enabled for this build to reach maximum efficiency.

version 3 cook, I have removed alacrity because you don't keep uptime on it in open world (and DS by extent), and this way MoS energy recovery isn't wasted as much

Also how come on i lcyveins rotations guide it doesn’t suggest bleed right after flag

yo guys. i am currently playing sub on forgeweaver mythic. we are 2 subs in our rooster. we are sending BL on pull where i send my cds while the other sub is waiting for the first adds and is only sending symbols + dance at pull. i feel like i fall behind on damage because i get my cds lined up for the intermission and if i send them, i got non for the dmg amp. how are you guys handling that fight?

hazy breach
#

No reason to send on pull

short radish
#

and then save cds for amp

hazy breach
#

Just send at ~22s so your big hits happen on adds

hazy breach
#

You dont really lose any boss damage and you gain damage to the adds

alpine wraith
#

and bl on pull is demonic

#

da fuk

short radish
solemn hedge
young path
#

Dang… got excited there for a sec 🙁

short radish
#

but it's all about sustained open world damage

alpine wraith
#

you would bl first intermission then

short radish
#

it has one specific purpose

kind river
#

Man rogue sucks at the pylon intermission for forgeweaver, you either get non-functional hero talents as deathstalker assa or holding your burst as trickster sub

solemn hedge
short radish
#

do not play deathstalker

kind river
#

I said assa

slate lantern
short radish
#

oh

#

yeah doing damage during amp is your job

solemn hedge
short radish
#

it is not your job to do damage on pylons

alpine wraith
#

you know you can have dmg for pylons but it should be fine even if you dont do much

short radish
uneven fern
alpine wraith
#

just need to not send 1 dance earlier

uneven fern
#

just don’t play ds

#

there

dense swallow
#

Do you shadow blades right before first secret technique?

short radish
#

well eitehr you dont send it on the last add set

solemn hedge
short radish
#

or you dont send it on pylon

alpine wraith
#

yea it must be hard to think about sub cds

short radish
#

easier to not send on pylon

alpine wraith
#

as other specs

#

so i have this with 2 charges

#

and this other one with 3

#

i can also save this for 14

#

hmmm

solemn hedge
short radish
#

get them to send more

alpine wraith
#

it is your choice

short radish
#

or readjust who goes where

swift tinsel
#

we did it team

short radish
#

or hold your last dance/symbols on adds

alpine wraith
#

you send on adds or pylon

short radish
#

and save for pylon

alpine wraith
#

you can even dry sec tech

#

to have 2 unseens for pylon and use 4 coups there

#

suddenly you have dmg

#

but on that sets of adds you will do wang

#

ask the team you want to carry me in aoe last set or pylon

solemn hedge
#

so hold on pull, just symbols and dance. then send at around 22 seconds and then hold on pylons.

alpine wraith
#

checks out

short radish
#

look at the casts on this

alpine wraith
#

oh and also save 18 stack prism for intermission amp

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.

Anyone able to help with this:
Been doing an alt up got quite a good understanding on the burst windows and defensive spells but seem to be missing a big part.
With the research ive done (Trickster is hero talent this season) Nimble Flurry should be doing 30/35-40% of my DPS overall in dungeons. Im currently peaking at like 20% and i dont fully understand what im doing wrong, cant find a video that helps explain it fully either.

If anyone has a video / advise about it ill take any knowledge u may have. Ive read the WoWhead section but feel like i missed something explaining this particular thing.

the only time prism wont be at 18 stacks is your first usage of it

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 or with 4+ targets, if you have the 4 set buff active and need to build combo points 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.
