And you symbols when sectech has 10s or less left
Which does not happen at the same time
!wa
does use 14 work for trinkets

do you guys symbols sec outside of dance in m+?
i guess around the point of making sure u have 2 dances
usually not since you have so much more cdr you get more dances off
in fact, i found myself short on symbols charges sometimes
!loot
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
typically ~30sec left on flag cd you stop sending symbols and dance
you want 1.5 dance charges and 1 symbols charge with ~10-12 sec left on 2nd charge cd
30 second downtime sounds rough, but makes sense
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
The downtime period isn’t that bad, it’s actually rather chill
yeah its part of the ebb and flow of sub damage
some poeple get itchy at it, they cant resist sending that extra dance
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i dont fully understand ' holding coup ' do you simply not evicerate and wait for 20 seconds ?
yep
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
what do we optimally press then ? rupture and bp ?
Its not like were casting many spells to begin with anyway
^
Nothing
for a whole 20 seconds
become a humble shadow techniques farmer
that feels like eternity
I mean you backstab
and then 20 seconds later blast to the moon
But its like every 4th second or something
sounds like an easy choice
What kind of damage increase does the shadow techniques build-up represent?
!fuu
just overcap backstab till u can coup dance yada yada
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Even if you were to press buttons you get to hit like 1 extra eviscerate in those 20 seconds
mmm
gets out-damaged by an UB hit
In aoe you wouldnt though, since you get to press way more buttons
Then you'd just bp
mans caught in a shuriken tornado
His fault for selecting the talent.
what the fucky
time to remove side wheels like learning wheels guys
based af
I ll unbind my dance symbols macro
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
Anticipation
Wait until next Monday
un macroing symbols and dance made me feel like i wasnt pressing symbols at all at some times
can i ask, what is the shadow tech stacks?
as you auto-attack, you gain them and they act as stored combo points
The thing that stores extra combo points
Perhaps you should press the symbols bind
when you use a builder, it will pull from those stacks to add combo points up to 7
perhaps i shant
enjoy subpar dps
thats so cool

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
do u have ur profile picture but without the head
so you can send back-to-back finishers
did u use photoshop for it
yeah I made one for each class discord
wait no way
this one has a version with a santa hat
@swift tinsel why are they calling for your head?
nah I don't think I made the mage one
Head game OP I guess
I guess
I just photoshop my picture over the heads and add some extra elements to cover up parts like the original picture
none of them are headless
just layered
Did any headway get made on the rotten FW stuff from last week? I was gone since Friday.
Sounds like you aren't really gaming it anymore
which I wasn't too surprised by
moment
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
Ok so BP needs a buff
if they buff BP to take prio over coup in aoe I will burn down irvine
won’t take much with the about of rain they get
They should limit flawless stacks at 15
Laughs in deathstalker
O_O
Deathstalker laughs at itself
How is Deathstalker, leveling a sub alt and the gameplay appeals to me over trickster but I keep reading it’s markedly worse
it is
How much worse
its terrible
stop playing it
Rip
you will thank us later
I don’t plan on mythic raiding or anything
if you spec deathstalker your pc explodes
they gotta completely redo ds if its gonna stay in the game imo
out of shame
real
do you plan on waking up one day and thinking "you know what I should love myself more and look after myself"
12.0 for sure 
because when you do
You can obviously spec into it but it feels bad to play and the numbers are far below trickster
I ask myself that every day, answer so far had been no

well you can start now
lmao
look after yourself homie
true and actually
Lemme put it this way I played ret in tbc classic
not speccing Deathstalker is the ultimate self-care move
I'm playing deathstalker sometimes, to be more appreciative of how bad things could be
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
real shit i wish they would redo DS
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
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
yeah it had the potential to be cool
If I knew what you did as your therapist I wouldn't have picked up
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
Fantasy wise its my favorite, execution was terrible bruh
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
Yeah haha, literally solves most the problems subs had in the past
Sham buff is ~5% more dmg in m+ right ? Or even ST ?
since you can consume DN stack a lot more
Ever since I told my wa to light up at 5 cp when I have coup, it won't refund me anymore
note thats open world not delves
The world is cruel
FUCK IT THATS IT IM COOKING UP A DS BUILD FOR OPEN WORLD
and theres nothing you can do to stop me
I’d be ok with trickster if at least like brew/gloomblade/etc were good but all of those are bad too?
Take away him pc
there's a dark brew build floating around for trickster somewhere
Fimbulvintr clearly not normally
Just don’t use goremaw’s bite…I mean you “can” but yeah
Zdps build
Take goremaw
iirc its fairly competetive in m+ (db build)
You cannot not play goremaw
Floating around somewhere ? Is the dark brew build with us in this room ?
Yes
Yeah ngl that ability looked so bad I just immediately mentally no’d it
good move
there was a world where it was relevant but it is not this one
If econ was important rather just spec tea I feel like
yeah it kinda solves a problem we don't have
I mean it’s kinda cool for laughs and giggle and something different to press lol
At least while leveling, energy has not seemed to be a particularly large concern after shadow techniques
This is what happens when you’re upside down too long.
ew man this is a gross GIF
me eating pizza rolls right out the air fryer
Someone invent bleed build sub ty
specs RS and DB
Char about to bring back the Hemo build
nailed it
so do I craft a 1H for DH fight
Brew finality replicating ⚠️Warning Signs ⚠️ anythjnf else?
ew no
I want to machine gun down demons.

Haste with no shadow craft goes immensely hard
idk if we’ll even get there this week
plus extra rupture ticks
OPOP
bleedmaxxing sub
I think we start mythic this week, maybe next
I'm getting itchy
man i look away for 15 minutes and come back to yall degens bleedmaxxing?
Backstab causes a bleed dot, evis causes a bleed dot, secret tech causes a bleed dot, rupture causes another bleed dot, everything bleeds
what the fuck
how long and what do i hold for next shadowblades?
how bad is it if i also drop shadow dance
nonono
Seems fine man infact, drop sub all together and play classless rogue
this is good
The start of a new OP build, no SB and no secret tech
trust me
how much did he pay you to say that
Class talents only
we know that's his thing
🅱️oneless rogue
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?
Do you change your gameplay at all for massive uncapped pulls? Like the murlocs in gambit
wait holy shit what if i also drop sectech
ideally your passive trinket has passive agi, so if the robot says double on-use is better for you it likely is
!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 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.
What the fuck is 🅱️ro cooking
1 dance and another about 30 seconds left on cd, and then close to two symbols
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
Man completly off the Grid 🧐
Rest of the key was fine, I didn't play any different
!mistakes
Here are some common mistakes and how to spot them in your logs:
- Go into your log, press Timelines and Casts to the right like this
- Every single Flagellation & Blades window should look like the opener in this picture. Coup, shadowstrikes and eviscerates can move around a bit depending on procs, but all the other spells should be used exactly like this.
- Make sure you always get 8 globals off during your shadow dances. You can hover over your shadow dances to see the exact times they start, and then see if your 8th spell is within 8 seconds of that.
- If your shadow dance and/or symbols wasnt ready in time to be used like in the picture above you used too many in between your burst.
Now you’re cooking
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
so we need to take power out of dance
and take advantage of subterfuge
think about it right
yeah but if you don't take dance how do you use our goated Lingering talent
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
Man I'm going back to bed it's too early for this
No bitches
okay so i haven't cooked up no sectech/dance yet
mans cooking dingoes on the barbie
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
Think he’s trying to cook Vegemite on the barbie
and do another evis
Don’t need blades
fuck
yes
thats my 2nd cook
this is only round 1
its good
im gonna use this on reset
when i do WQs
what about incorporating PvP talents ?
wait but then i cant take shadowfocus
i thought about that
that was the reason for sblade
literally have no idea what you mean to say
then you take these
One has to make great sacrifices to achieve greatness
Am i bleedmaxxing ??
15 seconds of blade + 30 seconds of 30% increased shadow damage
which is like 50% uptime

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
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
Find a way to get tornado to bleed FASTER
4 mobs or 40 mobs
just send black powder
Step aside assa new king in town
Maybe I should run tornado for gambit? My opener felt a little weak
I have bleedminned, I apologize let me correct
First pull of gambit is fake pad anywau
Fair
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
That's another question I have as well I guess
At any point during cds do you actually start using storm over shadowstrike?
Only once between coups
God I love it when you talk dirty to me
Strike > storm
Ahem.. ahhhhrm rmhem hrm hem ahem.
Mud
Lmao
Thanks
with this, shouldnt there be a 2nd coup?
Sub keys have been pretty fun so far
Yeah but thats from s2
I'm doing keys exclusively as sub to prepare for later raid encounters
ok so 2nd coup in place of that evis, got it
Ye
also, how does sub feel on demon hunter bois
Fine
If your tanks are moving correctly it actually is good
I'm not looking forward to that encounter on mythic
does tagging the others with rupture matter?
!wa
They have all 3 dhs stacked for every cd set
I just learned sub I don't really want to mess with outlaw
Well you keep ruptures up while out of dance yes

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
Are yall able to open vaults ?
In 12 minutew
The servers arent down but everyone is by vault for some reason even tho it should be maintenance rn
Not for another 10m
ah ok

Our bosses were pretty much dead after the last intermission
Same xd i cant parse
So im just sitting there with my pot and 18 stacks with 15 seconds left when the boss died
:(((
Ill just hold the 4:30 one for 5 min on reclear this week
Thats what im thinking
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.
Probably after hunt lines
does nimble flurry behave like blade flurry? 8 yards around the player?
Ye its 8 yards around the player
someone give fimbul his meds please
this is going to be good
But it doesnt apply poisons like bladeflurry does
On the find weakness wa does that mean you should eviscirate over black powder when the wa has the icon of evis
BP at 4 or more targets
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
Was using wowhead mainly but took a look
No bleedmaxxing
It does
!wa
do we use strike as a builder regardless of the number of targets?
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?
No reason to send on pull
you enjoy your backstab soup in intermission and try and compete with the healers for damage
and then save cds for amp
Just send at ~22s so your big hits happen on adds
How’s this sim?
You dont really lose any boss damage and you gain damage to the adds
garbage
we are aiming on skipping the second intermission though
Dang… got excited there for a sec 🙁
but it's all about sustained open world damage
you would bl first intermission then
it has one specific purpose
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
yeah we need to optimize dmg then. we can hardly kill our pillar in time
do not play deathstalker
I said assa
pylons arent boss, we go next
thats helpful thank you
it is not your job to do damage on pylons
you know you can have dmg for pylons but it should be fine even if you dont do much
A Website to compare top parses in World of Warcaft.
this is also true on sin on that fight really.
just need to not send 1 dance earlier
Do you shadow blades right before first secret technique?
well eitehr you dont send it on the last add set
we got hunter, dh, warrior and me on this one pillar
or you dont send it on pylon
yea it must be hard to think about sub cds
easier to not send on pylon
as other specs
so i have this with 2 charges
and this other one with 3
i can also save this for 14
hmmm
yeah so not even dance + symbols
get them to send more
it is your choice
or readjust who goes where
we did it team
or hold your last dance/symbols on adds
you send on adds or pylon
and save for pylon
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
so hold on pull, just symbols and dance. then send at around 22 seconds and then hold on pylons.
checks out
A Website to compare top parses in World of Warcaft.
look at the casts on this
oh and also save 18 stack prism for intermission amp
which boss is the best to see ST rotation
fract
fractilus
plexus as well i guess
just step back 
kk thank you. we also do not really use black powder right?
i used it because im not ethical
you know what lorgs misses? a zoom button
bp is more dps but some people use evis more
yeah because i looked at some logs and most of the top logs dont BP
it also doesn't have forgeweaver trinket
is this a hidden tech
the vanish?
yes

did u get a lily last 2 weeks
or are u trolling
or do u just have full bis raid alrdy
Is there any good sub video guide?
myth track ofc
!wa

gg
yeah heroic prism > myth lily
socket on the helm. 
whats ur other
and i have myth pacemaker also
is it normal to not to get 2nd sectec in the opener or am I just a noob
noob
is it finally take a belt week
knew it
Holy coal
can I cheat and start the dance with full combo points?
instead of backstab
oh wait
I figured it out
because dance is not gcd
anyone need trinkets?
I know I sounded super stupid
Week 3 no Netherprism 🙂
fuck you
sincerly
i hope you step in a puddle
wearing only socks
🫃
is ritual forge + prism bis in all content or just specific bosses and m+
!fuu

You can farm heroic pieces. Can’t exactly farm trinkets. Forge is only good for 2x on use.
If you don’t have prism forge is pants
I hope i get a mythic forge because chasing orbs gets tedious real quick
Is double on-use good for sub? Have hero netherprism equipped and hero pacemaker but can take myth track Lily to replace pacemaker
we're a 90 sec spec. forge is 2mins
it's only used to off set getting prism stacks
what is the buff that stacks during flag/burst window that isnt the flag buff itself?
long term forge is likely better, but idk what this toon is for you
like i get his point , ican farm mythic+ 6's to get hero gear and convert
it's all shit low gear
i main mage, i'd like to have a second character and learn how to play melee
Flawless form? Its not tied to flag at all
so i want to focus on this, i'll have to pug raid
so won't have a group to funnel gear, so it'll just probably be m+ pugging
with the occasional raiding
farm up tier pieces or convert normal pieces unless you think you can roll / get trinkets
pugging 6/8H is not bad, obvs low chance of gear but
okay i kinda really cooked with this bullshit build but it's honestly working a lot better in open world than expected
oh yh i knew but its in that window
it feels reminiscent of the old levelling build
Is there difference for opening the vault as sub vs assa ?
where you could jump from mob to mob with shadow strike
unironically it's acutally a really good open world WQ build
i swear something is wrong.. i just did a rotation on 5 target dummy with evis as the finisher and got like 17m after a 1min.. but when i did the exactt same thing but swapped to bp as the finisher i got like 10m after 1min.. wtf is going on lol
Are we going to get catalyst charges this week?
bro i know how shit it sounds
but if you do any WQ content
give it a try
i swear this garbage somehow works

BIG MONEY
Meanwhile, 🥲
do we really bp on 4+ targets.. i am legit doing considerable less damage with it then envis lol.. there isnt something i have to do extra that i am missing that?
!aoe
- Always cast Coup de Grace when is ready, regardless of target count.
- Black powder instead of regular Eviscerate at 4 or more targets (theres no other secret rule).
- At *ALL target counts use Shadowstrike during Shadow Dance, not Shuriken Storm.
no we just like spouting off lies in this discord 
get gud
is my character cursed lol
antenna isnt bad
stop calling me out
this thing good?
the build works man
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.
(currently 0 set idk if set bonus is the difference maker but idk)
Set bonus is massive
do we still refresh SoD at pandemic during CD's ?
nah only thing you care about is supercharging sectech
So whats the reason not to macro sod to dance?
!tier
Tier set:
Best Slots: Head, Chest, Hands, Legs
Strength: 2p (~10% dps) | 4p (~20% dps) -> Combined: ~30%.
Note: Try to get the 4set asap.
That doesnt always line up with dance
(most of the time it doesnt in blades)
sub rogue have target cap guys?
ah, last played sub at smolderon, wanted to give it a try and im strugggling xD
do we just sim 1 boss patchwerk 5 mins fro st?
?
Do the burst sequence listed in the guides on the dummies tons of times until you can easily do it
And then you do that every 90s
and thats 85% of subs gameplay
Softcapped at 8 with BP, like most things
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
currently doing that 😄 my muscle memory is so fucked coz for the longest time i had sod macroed to dance so i forget it often, i also really need to fix my binds for sub i think thats also a problem
:((((
what is sod?
TIL if you kill Fractillus and not Soul Hunters you can still get loot from them in the vault
After a coup inside CDS, you guy's wait 1s in case of getting the CP refund late, or you insta SS and go into the 2nd coup ?
Yeeeep, same with soulbinder and loom
I believe you were asking what you needed to have for shadow blades correct?
belt angle?
frac trinket :(((
so many brothers getting M prism today
so with the aoe... im assuming when coup is available you just coup twice and ignore bp no matter if there are 50000 mobs?
U don't even want to open my vault
as that is prob why my damage sucks without it
Yes
After my vault I cant watch anymore
I was out for a day and missed entirety of frac prog so hes not even in my vault 
Ooooooft

That is big sad
Have any of yall replaced your delve belt yet>
double oathsworn
just do it ^^
Any of the secondary stat ones that isnt haste is gonna be fine
If your gear has no crit then maybe the crit ones are slightly better and vice versa for the other stats, but it largely doesnt matter much
too much mast ?
To much haste
not enough ilvl
is that true?
!aoe
- Always cast Coup de Grace when is ready, regardless of target count.
- Black powder instead of regular Eviscerate at 4 or more targets (there is no other secret rule).
- At ALL target counts use Shadowstrike during Shadow Dance, not Shuriken Storm.
Oh no minor grammar mistake
double on use just bis now or only specific bosses and m+?
Its good but overrated
Not double on-use in general, specifically forge and prism
actually so over
Idk who at blizzard I pissed off
is it simming correctly?
Idk how my vaults are this bad
Should be ~13.5% chance to get it in vault if youve killed fract so fairly high
bro how
Yes
ive hit bis 3 weeks in a row now on my rogue
will stick to seaforium then, sims like 20k less
huge belt
fk a delve belt
I already have the nexus king belt
huge free crests for a ring?
Ring is fine by itself
So my best simming trinket combo is netherprism and lily... Do I just hold netherprism till it's basically fully stacked before I use it in cd's?
But its obviously not a prism
Yes
And when you use prism you just dont use lily until next blades
Okay that makes sense

anyone have a coup de grace weakaura that just shows when its ready to use in text format? I need to shove that shit in front of my face lol, i think i saw someone in RWF have it but cant find it on wago
surely I take the dagger right?
sure, the fight does not seem to be a dps wall
Fight isnt anything really
My tier is over
I know that atrophic can stack, but how does it specifically stack? Is it just additive?
Multiplicative
Ok that was what I suspected ty
You should consider being luckier next tier
Its been dogshit every tier of my entire life 👍
it seems to be the #1 reaosn to fight auraupdater again ^^
Im assuming youre extending so youre not getting any reclear loot either
Raidbots is down and I can't make this decision by myself wheres my robot 🙁
Uh 50/50 I think
cursed stone is good for sub?
lily is better right?
I got the same dagger and tier legs and some shit haste neck
Last week I got that stupid haste mas neck out of HOA
Im leaning towards dagger cause I have champ nether and hero lily
Yeah that's the neck that's in mine
So annoying how much worse the M+ vault is compared to the raid vault
Tier seems decently balanced but its still a bit curious that they havent done any tuning, not this week nor the previous
it is a bit weird they made the ilvl change
it's about to be the 2nd time I've taken a dungeon track item
m+ vault loot feels like dog to take
2 dagger crafted, is a nice call ? my second dagger is champion
I mean I like the change but
It's really frustrating when u are a serial, never get any good vaults until 10 weeks into farm

When using diffrent macros, make sure to keep the cooldowns on a seperate key as well.
How do you use double on use trinkets like Prism and Araz?
Inb4 they change the m+ row to be able to give higher ilvl if you do higher keys 
Rotate them with blades
Yeah im just taking the dagger cause mines champ anyway, I just need a better passive trink
doubt
got myth chest from vault that I wanted. Only missing myth track tier legs now
Hello! I got myth lily, hero prism and hero antenna in my vault. Any ideas on what I should snatch up?
Do you hit prism between CD's or just let it sit for 3min
how come during shadow dance there are times when I shadow strike but I dont get the charge to use Coup De Grace?
You only press them with blades
Unclear, theyre all good, play whichever you prefer
Its not 100% on all strikes
Read the trickster tree
just play what you like, sub is a lot of fun
from experience assa is great at aoe but shit on pure st unless funnel on bosses, but sub okayish at aoe but better at pure st than assas bleed build
sub feels a little more equal on both types of fights which is nice
!guide
So the trinket is nice but the ring is BIS and may be my only chance at it. What you think?
i don't like lilly, so i would probably take the ring
Yes but i didnt understand what you are saying
but lilly is rly good if you don't have prism
Ya tough decision but am leaning ring myself thanks.
Ya
yes, especially because you can let it stack for big burst
At max stacks it gives 54000 primary stat, the burst is quite nuts
the proc damage is also pretty good
Ahh gotcha. For the shadow blades window, make sure you have at least one charge of Shadow dance and another charge about halfway. Then for symbols of death, have one charge ready and another charge close to being finished. And of course use it with Flagellation and trinkets

Wow, everyone is simming right now
At maxed mythic its even 66.5k. Shit goes crazy
Their servers are not having a good day
anyone able to look fast log to see if im making any major mistakes, other than forgetting to vanish and macroing sec + coldblood for comfort while im learning
Opening my vault soon. Hoping for prism but ready to endure the worst
never sim directly after reset ^^
Its nice that only dks and rogues use it, i got mine loot counciled because nobody else wanted it
We on that raidbots premium train
double crafted dagger is nice ? second dagger is champion
Nah
is there an accesible breakdown of how much dps value each of our talents give? Taking a look at survivability talents and can't discern how to read bloomallet talent scaling
Offhand is worth very little
You shouldnt have to sacrifice any DPS for survivability since all of the survivability talents are in the first gate
MM aswell I think
Ok but like i would need the info the other way round. Lets say i am in m+ going into a trash pull and i got dance and symbols ready, when do i not send them and what could i send?
I'm more just experimenting and curious than anything. I don't have issues living in raid.
Fade to nothing and exhilarating executing is all the survivability you get in the spec tree
ephemeral bond
exhilarating is the better of the two
was curious what relentless strikes provides
1 charge symbols with 2nd being ~7 sec away, 35 sec till next dance charge
offhand weapon is not that strong power level wise, so if you have a good mainhand its not that important
relentless strikes is probably the biggest dps you can lose lol you literally will only be able to use finishers one time
i know the bis setup, im just curious if there's a breakdown
If you don’t have that when cds come up, you either messed up by sending too much, or plan to hold cds for a bigger pull anyway
yeah ok that makes sense
Probably dont want to give up relentless strikes
yeah its hard bad move, also loses strategem
I think for M+ same rules still apply, when Flag is like close to 30s to being ready, just save your CDs. Could actually probably send 1 more shadow dance and symbols assuming the shuriken aoe generates max combo points but it’s probably too tight of a window
You need 1.5 dances and 1.4 symbols.
^ Ye you basically lose nothing by holding
Or just save with 30 on flag
If you get close to losing a charge of symbols/dance while holding, you can just send later
Like you can sim by just manually removing talents, but that gets kinda scuffed since a lot of the rotation is based on having those locked-in talents
Yeah I was thinking the same. nbd really
Cant get my CB/SecTech macro to work - Anyone else have that issue?

ring the move here?
I could use shoulders and hands but idk if I'll ever see this ring myth again
Can catalyst any armor piece so id say ring
Was the relog, thanks tho XD
Trash idea
dagger only sims about 40k higher technically the legs are the better option but not sure if I will ever see another myth track dagger
is there ever a reason to hold dance charges in st?
forge prepping
omg is raidbot being ddosed wtf is going on
dont take anything till reclear mythic/heroic prepping lmfao
yeah too many sims
LET ME SIIIIIIIMMM
also not wrong
i had helm with socket so it was ez take
Better than my vault 
tomorrow im gonna find mythic antenna in my vault and i wanna know now how much better it is
yeah its insane but I wanted to take something right away now i have to WAIT for reclear grrr
Does raid vault still only apply to bosses you've killed?
my DOPAMINE
do people have a macro to flaggelation and shadowblades together?
No
i heard if u kill 3rd boss u automatically get 2nd boss in loot table as well
you do
you get the loot from the latest boss in the journal you've killed. If you kill plexus and then fractillus, your first vault slot will have all loot available up to fractillus (including soul hunters even if you didn't kill it)
why not
so since my guild killed 1st and 3rd mythic boss, here comes antenna
Less damage
champ>hero prism vs hero>myth chest in vault as m+ only player...hmmm
fck chest
And since this patch all items are also based on the ilvl of the latest boss you killed, instead of their base ilvl
how come
also apparently ppl delay burst on Soulbinder for the adds
Oh wtf I didn't know that nice
ez forge
deathless tazavesh run can give any item on the tazavesh loot table?
Yes
yes
So for sub its largely just the tier pieces for catalysting youre after
Or maybe a crest save here and there
can anyone suggest which trinket i should replace with the vault drops?
is the Mythic Anub one better than the heroic Priory?

do we always delay dance + symbols till secret tech is back up? in st?
yeah i got the haste/mast dagger, which isnt terrible cuz of the ilvl.... but im going to do it again tonight and hoping for a tier cata slot
Priory is not good for Sub since it doesnt line up well with our cooldowns right?
Correct
Ty ! If you had to use a mythic track Anub trinket Vs heroic Lily which one would you prefer ?
If I already have a champ Prism and am using the 701 Delve belt
Should I take Hero Forgemasters and do double on use, or just take a myth Crit/Mast Belt

tyty
do i bp at 4 or 7 targets sorry
4
!aoe
- Always cast Coup de Grace when it is ready, regardless of target count.
- Black powder instead of regular Eviscerate at 4 or more targets (there is no other secret rule).
- At ALL target counts use Shadowstrike during Shadow Dance, not Shuriken Storm.
7 or more
?
Do the stat weapon enchants stack? Like double mastery
Only exception to Not using black powder in 4+ targets, is if we wanna use Evis to kill priority targets right ?
Yes, but it generally doesnt matter much
Black powder seems to do decent damage this time
Its not a huge prio difference either way, most of the prio damage comes from coup, sectech, and unseen blades
a lot of our priority damage is in coup/secret so you don't lose that much using evis instead of bp
Ahhhh right makes sense
If I have 2 combo points, with a coup proc. Do I build it to max before spending the coup ?
My feelycraft approach is to send the 2nd coup with whatever I got when I am outside of dances
(if I have unseen blade stacks)
Ya sometimes I do that too. Like 2 combo coup when it procs
My time spent in raidbots queue purgatory has led me to decide that I am going to quit wow and become a New World pvp streamer.
I believe this to be for the best.
!tea
Thistle tea use:
It is recommended to macro Thistle Tea with Shadow Dance like this:
/cast Shadow Dance
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null```
does this one cast tea by itself? it casts it on first press or second press (for backstab)?
#Showtooltip Shadow Dance
/cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow Dance
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
it uses it on the first press?
!fuu

!guide
is prism + antenna good for m+? or double on use
So I just started playing my alt rogue and its been a bit since Ive played sub and I have my dance macroed with backstab and can't remember why. Is that fine all the time and is it for dance macabre?
you use backstab as your first builder with premeditation in shadow ance
Ah makes sense thanks
it isn't that important in aoe
also its an optimization, so you can skip it initially and come back to it once familiar with the rotation
fuu how do i turn off the resizing of the plater frames when there are lots of targets? and why does the color change from green to purple somtimes?
does it have to be backstab? or is shadowstrike fine
Not like this
backstab
Can someone explain to me why this macro is not using cold blood?
#showtooltip Secret Technique
/cast Cold Blood
/cast Secret Technique
ohhhh it makes non-important target frames smaller

using storm inside dance once to proc fw on all targets for bp is only a thing with rotten right?
Its not good with rotten either now with tier
Its obviously not horrible, but couldnt make it be a positive thing to do anymore in sims compared to using strikes and only using storm to save unseen blade stacks (so inbetween coups)
Is Ritual Forge/Unyielding Netherprism way better than Lily/Netherprism, feel like im using 2 lily's in a row in keys alot to get my 18 stacks on 3rd blades. Worried I will have to do a naked blades on my 2nd of the key
yes forge is just better
the only time prism wont be at 18 stacks is your first usage of it
forge - prism (~9 stacks) - forge - prism (~18 stacks) repeating
ofc with downtime in m+ you might be at 16 stacks or w/e
but you get what i mean
yea i send over 15 eez what it eez

yall talkin about forge and nether im sittin here with pacemaker and lily 
waste 5 mins on dornogal dummies to get prism to 18 stacks
die on first pull of Floodgate with full CDs

@hazy breach thank you
Prism resets when you start a key anyway
what you guys crafting this week
No fucking way dude I think I saw prism at 18 stacks on first pull of floodgate

!wa
ring probs
Ring for sure
pain
within 3 seconds of a key opening its kinda funny
Even at hero level?
probably, lily just doesnt give much stats for your cds
Alright I will have to Sim again forgot I got forge last week
Do we use double on use with netherprism and Araz's ritual forge?
Is there a right way to sim dungeon slice for Sub?
there is only one way to sim dungeonslice
Is nightly better or weekly?
you can, both are pretty strong so it works
anyone have a netherprism tracker I can use?
do you lose netherprism stacks when the key starts?
nightly is typically updated faster with hotfixes/etc
Look at my vault bro

Hey so with sub I've seen some conflicting info. Wow head guide says send finisher 6+, I saw imexile was sending 5+ on his Dem kill, and some other sources say 5+. There is no major talent interaction that happens at 6 right? Like with DS it requires 5+ for mark to work in example.
It's just get as high as you can without wasting?
last weeks as well 
oh helll naurr
why trickester in raid instead of DS?
Cuz DS does less damages
i think deathstalker just sucks
can you play without rupture on this spec? new to this. and it is confusing.
Rupture is just free dmg, send it outside of dance windows
Why would you remove the best finisher CP/damages ?

!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 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.
