BRING BACK THE COINS

vale pine
#

but delays means other classes/specs realize that its good

haughty mural
vale pine
#

so i won't get it guaranteed

haughty mural
#

Yes true

compact violet
#

you can if u put forge first, bcs it will be on cd for the next burst, but only if u burst before 2mn

vale pine
#

true

compact violet
#

it work pretty well on king : araz ==> prism ==> araz platform ==> prism 18stack amp

fossil forge
#

i wonder What will people buy with dinars now

#

Trinkets are much more accesible since they drop from earlier bosses

short radish
#

prism -> forge -> boots

#

maybe antenna

#

what If i have all of those garf

#

suffering from success ?

#

yeah

#

dinars arent made for people like you

#

How we determine whether to send evis or sectec as 1st finisher? Single target

fallow nimbus
#

If sectec has 10sec cd and you are not in cds then you can eviscerate first

#

Else you sectec as first finisher

turbid edge
#

Even if in cds, u can still evis first, right? Then u get sectech up for 2nd finisher

hazy breach
#

If sectech is ready, press sectech

#

Making sure you get the unseen blades from disorienting strikes off earlier is way more important than an extra macabre stack for sectech

The following is a general recommendation, but you will always get more accurate results through simming your gear through Top Gear.
Mastery >= Versatility >= Critical Strike >>> Haste

hello i wanna craft gear for one of my tier set slot. which tier set slot has the worst stat for sub?

Struggling with logs on sub a bit, running antenna and netherprism. I have a question, currently prism is macro'd to use whenever i press Shadow blades, meaning whenever i have very low stacks at pull (usually just 1) it gets pressed. I was thinking if its better to not use trinket at start and let it build stacks for the next SB (1min 30 into the fight, so you do not have the 20 sec downtime of missing out on stacks at the start.

!prism

wicked joltBOT
#

Unyielding Netherprism
Use the trinket at the same time as Shadow Blades. What stacks you should use it on depends on your trinket combination:

  • If its your only on-use trinket: Using it on 9 or 18 stacks is the same on a target dummy but in practice thing like big pulls, damage amps or timings often end up favoring the big 18 stack.
  • If youre using Prism+Forge: Rotate between them each Shadow Blades regardless of stacks (so forge on pull, prism on 1:30, forge on 3:00)
  • If youre using Prism+Lily: Use Lily with Blades until you have 16+ stacks of Prism, then use prism and hold Lily for next Blades.

!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.

How much does a mythic one boss kill cost? Want to get mythic fractalis for trinket

#

do i have a chance to get invited into mythic pug with those logs? how can i increase my chance or is it really just a hit or miss?

#

sucks that assa is so much better on sentinel

Yeah but my patchwork sims about 4,6 mil and i did loomithar yesterday (felt pretty decent) and did 4,55 mil dps, log is 84 but my ilvl parse is 22 (ilvl 712)

i decided to stay with 2 on use in keys

#

Guys are we going to use eco dome trink lily?

tight monolith
#

did it on my dk alt and it was an experience to say it at least but got it done. prob in average better tank movement on lfr soulbinder than what I got in my grp in that pug

tight monolith

#

i dont have prism and also dont have forge but if im going to change lily to forge later im not gonna take it from vault

tight monolith
#

hmmmm

#

I would prob take it from vault if its mythic

#

whats the rest of your vault like

#

and do you raid mythic?

scenic plover
#

Was sth changed with the disc belt? Suddenly 707 mythc from first boss gives me 50k dps gain over it?

tight monolith
#

what effect do you got on it

#

the changes shouldnt be implemented yet but getting nerfed in next patch or some shit

#

I guess you have fat fingered or changed the effect on the belt if its suddenly simming like dogwater

sick jolt
#

i got myth shoulder and neck with lily

sick jolt
tight monolith
# sick jolt yes im on 4th boss

fair fair, then follow your gut but picking lily mythic wouldnt be the worst choice imo even doe its not locked in bis but decent other options

#

if I had no prism or forge rn, I would prob have sent that lily personally

hazy breach
#

Yeah

#

Belt is bugged and sims as default (charged bolts) if you use armory

but a fight to fight prefernce imo

#

last 2 antenna is just unplayable

#

ive seen some logs with a 50% miss chance

compact violet
#

im playin it on king atm

#

and its really ok

#

ur loosing some only on p1

#

but who acre about p1

hazy breach
#

Ye 50% is extreme, thats like purposefully running away from them at all times

#

I had 10% on our kill of nexus king

Its obviously a lot easier as melee than non-mage/bm ranged

Helo guys.

I have these 3 trinkets:

  • Myth track (714) Araz's Ritual Forge
  • Myth track (714) Astral Antenna
  • Heroic track (710) Unyielding Netherprism

Based on sims for ST the Prism + Antenna suits the best, however I see ppl using the Araz's Ritual Forge and Unyielding Netherprism together.

What do you think?

compact violet
#

depend where for what but prism and antenna is gonna be huge for most of the situation

limpid sage
#

but besides that you're well above the avg pug

compact violet
#

i was wondering on king, but the platform nerf means i dont want anymore burst here

manic niche
#

But yeah, stick to the sims I guess then.

compact violet
#

and ye araz is very dependant of the time kill

manic niche
#

I was just curious, because most ppl use double use trinkets.

compact violet
#

ye there is a lot of reason to it

lilac stag
compact violet
#

if ur looking at top log, ur gonna see a lot of double use cuz araz was way more accessible than antenna for most top rogue

karmic harbor
compact violet
#

and bcs araz + prism is banger on king and dimensius MM

#

but i bet the more u go into the patch, the more antenna ur gonna see on top log for the 6 first

manic niche
compact violet
#

we just need to wait for every dk / lock / mage get it

lilac stag
#

You’ll see more antenna or pacemaker on the last two as it goes on

compact violet
#

or drop it on vault

karmic harbor

#

There would be a lot of loss prolly.

#

Thank you guys

queen plinth
#

is forge like an upgrade your overall boosts a lot?

vale pine
#

the only fight you probably have a lower % chance is dimensius

#

people rly overestimate how much they miss

compact violet
#

we did a few pull yesterday and one where we got to p3 on king and i missed a lot
but i'm also rling so i'm really not looking at it

#

pretty sure if ur focusing a bit on it u can just go for 20-25% misses at max

#

and most of them in p1 i guess

#

p2/p3 ur not mooving a lot

glossy turtle
#

could someone perhaps look at my loomithar kill. im doing like a mil lower dmg then the highest parsers, and I jsut dont know what im doing wrong. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

finite sequoia
#

is it optimal to pop your third dance right after the first two (from opener) to take advantage of flawless form? same during minis when you dont have flag/blades but have 2 dances to spare, two dances in a row better than spacing them out?

# limpid sage might need to increase the dimensius one

yeah had only one kill so far which wos clutched by the last man standing DH tank for 30 seconds or so. should be pretty high if i survive till end but honestly, pugging dimensius HC is still a pain. i usually leave if i see puddles in p1 are all over the place for 3 pulls in a row. cba

Whats the benefit to that macro?

you can use the same key for backstab in shadow dance

Oh I just have my stealth and non stealth bar setup exactly the same

#

A lot of people (me included) have a tendancy to miss their last global in dance now, especially if you get good procs and get 2x coups

shadow lance
#

Yes, last dance gobal is sometimes weird

hazy breach
#

Since coup is 1.2s instead of 1s

#

If you have used 4 coups during your blades dances

#

You have 0.2s leeway across 16 (or 20) seconds

At times 8 globals is dracthyr_blob_sweat

Oh wait thats not the one

youre right

lilac stag

We’re back to needing dance + strike macro and dance +bs

Well you cant macro dance+strike

oh shit that’s right

Because of the stance thing

#showtooltip /cast Shadow Dance /castsequence reset=2 Symbols of Death,null /cqs /cast Backstab
This was the one i was referring to, my bad

#

Only really used for the blades dance

native hawk
#

is there any reason for coup to be a bit longer than 1s or is it just clunk

lilac stag
#

They used dfa as a base code and had an animation lock

maybe outlaw AR hasted gdc stuff or something idk

Coup de Grace Optimizations:

  • **Number 1: **You can stop using finishers ~10 seconds before your Flagellation comes up on Single Target. 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.

Oh, no, sod double casting/ overlapping early is being taken care off because of the castsequence macro suggested here for Tea.

I use the same for SoD in the blades macro

does anyone know if its optimal to pop your third dance right after the first two (from opener) to take advantage of flawless form? same during minis when you dont have flag/blades but have 2 dances to spare, two dances in a row better than spacing them out?

How bad is it to actually not get autumn on nexus king

hazy breach
#

Not that big of a deal

#

The main difference is that you get to send your cooldowns with some sht stacked

feels stinky though

hazy breach
#

And/or with a guaranteed coup, depends a little bit on how you do it

fringe mauve
#

hello new to sub i got the basics and rotation down but the dps feel so low

#

idk why

hazy breach
#

Are you sending 2x dances, 2 symbols and 2 sectechs every single shadow blades without any downtime inbetween dances?

fringe mauve
#

yea mostly

vale pine
#

if you do this correct, your damage should be good on most fights

specially in st in m+ im doing tank dps

ofc some figths are more specific

sure ill check ty

Would you guys use

Araz normal +prism lfr trinket combo for nexus king mythix?

#

My other options are champ antena and hero lily

antenna + prism

#

or well

#

maybe araz + prism works too

#

having prism lfr is kinda oof, i hope you can get a normal/heroic one soon

ive been enjoying the Araz + Prism combo

#

on like everything, im weird.

vale pine
#

the combo is good

#

but its not always the best

spiral sierra
#

true

vale pine
#

you can use prism on 18 stacks

#

even if its your ownly on use

#

so you don't need forge to get the same flexibility

#

it just is easier to play around if you have

#

If I wanted netherprism on my 3rd set of cds how would I play araz+prism?
Araz-nothing-prism?

#

I guess practically (mythic araz prog) i just pop on pull instead of first add set with araz, then hold 30s for 3rd add set with araz, then prism the damage amp

Or would you do araz prism araz?

Unyielding Netherprism
Use the trinket at the same time as Shadow Blades. What stacks you should use it on depends on your trinket combination:

  • If its your only on-use trinket: Using it on 9 or 18 stacks is the same on a target dummy but in practice thing like big pulls, damage amps or timings often end up favoring the big 18 stack.
  • If youre using Prism+Forge: Rotate between them each Shadow Blades regardless of stacks (so forge on pull, prism on 1:30, forge on 3:00)
  • If youre using Prism+Lily: Use Lily with Blades until you have 16+ stacks of Prism, then use prism and hold Lily for next Blades.

so who cares

priory+other onuse is very bad

I've seen a lot of streamers and top parsers do two sectecs in 1 dance, i've been practicing it for a bit but i wanted to know the benefit out of this and also how to manage later dances as when i have my second set of cd's my dance isn't back uptil my shadow daggers are out of duration

lilac stag
#

you're 100% better off with lily or forge for 2nd on use. it's not trash you all are making it out to be. lol

dusty totem
#

instead of this bs

#

Gear is not linear

lilac stag
#

yes cause everything is proper sim in m+ setups for gearing with trinkets

weak hamlet
#

!craft

lilac stag
#

2x sucks in m+ in sims

#

yet oddly many run it in some form

dusty totem
#

Okay?

#

Does not really change the fact that bloodmallet sims are not really a good resource for small differences between trinkets

short radish
#

lily + prism > signet + prism

dusty totem
#

See ^

lilac stag
haughty rose
lilac stag
#

but your sims even show its not that far off lol

dusty totem
#

Why would it be

short radish
#

well yeah because they're essentially the same trinket except signet gives less stats

short radish
#

so of course they'd be close

#

no

lilac stag
#

go eat your vegamite

short radish
#

i hate signet

dusty totem
#

Yeah but my point is if u just look at bloodmallet they are suposed to be very different

#

cause bloodmallet is only 1 onuse

short radish
#

i will not sit here and let people say signet is a good trinket when lily exists

graceful crown
dusty totem
lilac stag
#

and clearly dont get the relationship @short radish and I have of love, memes and sarcasm

lilac stag
#

but you decided to help, so welcome to the fun

#

lack of lily drops, a lfr froge and a heroic priory led me to fucking around with it

#

i should just farm the pvp crates

#

been lazy

short radish
#

you should

#

takes an hour

#

lfr 🐸 🇪

lilac stag
#

maybe I do that today

I'm acutally surprised signet sims that high on bloodmallet being a 2 min jobber

#

pacemaker is snooze and i really dont care that much

god said hc lily is a dps loss from mythic claw thing :/

Is shuriken storm a major increase in dps in m+?

The extra talent we don’t always take

lilac stag
#

we avoid it like the plauge

short radish
#

maybe but who cares it's so shit to play with

short radish
#

its not that mcuh more

lilac stag
#

it doesnt do what you think it does

wide maple
#

That’s what I thought and can’t be bothered pressing 1 more cd

lilac stag
#

and it's just not fun

short radish
#

based

#

pressing tornado sucks

#

woooooooo i can spread ruptures slightly faster once every minute

#

who cares

#

youre not dancing anyway

wide maple
#

But also pressing 4 buttons for your cooldowns to start is already way too many

lilac stag
#

I'm gonna take torando and pop off in my CDs.
reality: used outside of cds to spread rupture and get cdr
kekw

wide maple
#

Could have legit combined 2

short radish
#

damn prism + pvp trinket is really far behind @lilac stag

lilac stag
#

priory gaming it is

#

hahaha

short radish
#

wait

lilac stag
#

maybe lily in vault

short radish
#

should i sim 710

#

or 704

#

are you a gilded crest holder?

#

to generate interest

wide maple
#

I’d rather use shuriken than use double on use

lilac stag
#

i am a scrooge with crests

#

prism is 710

short radish
#

everything else 704?

lilac stag
#

trinkets, ye

i've raid logged for 2 weeks now, cause of poe, i'm nota scrooge with crests, but i dont have any kekdog

Subtlety Macros:
We do not recommend macroing your cooldowns together because most of them result in performance losses compared to using them manually.
The following macros are an exception:

/cast Shadow Dance
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null```
```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 as well.

I pugged with a warrior who was doing basically no damage, and every two minutes he would /s “#showtooltip”

chrome fern

unlucky

lilac stag
#

@short radish i think pacemaker ultimately better in pug keys. but I like getting tilted by mediocre pulls when I have cds up

#

2x adds to that tilt

short radish

do be like that

the ultimate enemy is always yourself

dry zodiac
short radish
#

so there's a scenario for prism + pvp trinket

#

excellent

dry zodiac
high eagle
#

Would it be PvP Trinket > PvP Trinket > Prism > ... over and over each CD set?

hazy breach
#

Double on-use with pvp trinket rather

short radish
#

but dont use pvp + prism anyway

hazy breach
#

Because theres like a super niche specific sequence

graceful crown
hazy breach
#

Generally yes

dry zodiac
#

Yeah you can get a bunch of extra pvp trinket uses on dances while still having it for every other flag. But sim doesn’t do it

hazy breach
#

Its like a massive amount of headache for very little

queen plinth
#

whats the avg dmg u kinda deal in an ara kara?

hollow spear
#

avg damage is super route and key level dependent

queen plinth
#

i had like a good 14 ara run(felt good for me) and i elft with 7.7 mil. i just dont know if this is good performacne or no. we barely timed the key but my druid was awful

#

tank wasnt doing anything special. are tanks pulling for your 18 stack prism windows so u pump a shit ton?

#

i mostly kill important pats with my big bursts.

hollow spear
#

I've seen better, I've seen worse

queen plinth
#

whats the best u saw in an ara

hollow spear
#

Can't say much about a details screenshot

slow gorge
#

I do worse on 10/12

short radish
#

and compare like that

queen plinth
#

i can send the log

short radish
#

i wont look at it

queen plinth
#

how would u compare dungeon logs with others

hollow spear
#

M+ log reviews are a pain in the butt

short radish
#

i would log myself

#

and compare the log

#

like this

lilac stag
short radish
#

and then pat myself on the back

#

and stroke my ego

slow gorge
warm marlin
#

The key% stat is the best thing you can get as a damage comparison but dungeon dps is very dependent on routing and group comp and it’s near impossible to compare yourself

short radish
#

^

#

if you time the key and didnt come last on dps

#

you win

warm marlin
#

Well I shouldn’t say best

short radish
#

if you dont time the key

warm marlin
#

Best statistical measure

short radish
#

then you blame everyone including yourself

queen plinth
#

okay, so is 7.7 mil a kinda valid dmg number for a 14?

short radish
#

if its pugs though who cares

lilac stag
#

@warm marlin are you still pirating keys? or ninjaing now

slow gorge
#

Can you be m'y teacher pls i can pay in nature

queen plinth
#

or is this low compared to sub rogues dmg outpout

short radish
#

no

hollow spear
#

7.7 mio on details != 7.7 mio in wcl

short radish
#

i dont do push keys

#

i just vibe

slow gorge
#

I never do more than 10/12

warm marlin
#

It’s either gonna be ninja or the arcane mage I’m gearing this week

hollow spear
#

I get declined for weekly keys

slow gorge
#

Feel useless for me

short radish
#

based

hollow spear
#

we are not the same

warm marlin
#

Arcane is kind of fun

short radish
#

p*shing is cringe

lilac stag
#

i need a weapon to try outlaw

swift tinsel
#

Arcane is quite chill

lilac stag
#

but overall sub vibe is good

warm marlin
#

It’s like sub but with less cd flexibility and not having to think about meeting cdr breakpoints

hollow spear
#

arcane sucks if people are padding your funnel away

covert meteor
#

Just get 3000 for mount pepe_nice

Also, 12s are easier than 10

warm marlin
#

U just press things and if you get downtime ah well

swift tinsel
#

And you get to be ranged

#

Which is its own QoL

short radish
#

and also not ever have to press the W key

swift tinsel
#

And utility

queen plinth
#

i play rogue since 5 days, and i kinda feel like this gonna be my all time alt or im gonna reroll even

lilac stag
#

LUST

warm marlin
#

Oh yeah and you have infinite defensives and are ranged so naturally have way less to think about in keys and lust and better stops

#

But you know

short radish
#

party defensive

#

FUCK

#

MAGES

warm marlin
#

And decurse

short radish
#

HOLY SHIT I HATE THEM SO MUCH

swift tinsel
#

Lust, supernova, blast wave, frost nova, sheep (kinda)

queen plinth
#

stfu

swift tinsel
#

Mass barrier

plush roost
#

Yeah thats cool and all

queen plinth
#

mages are goat

hazy breach
#

More stops, buff, lust and mass barrier garf_sit

warm marlin
#

And funnel

hazy breach
#

Compared to, uh, uh, kidney shot?

short radish
#

and execute

lilac stag
#

hahah

hazy breach
#

And atrophic/numbing

warm marlin
#

Aoe blind HOLY

plush roost
#

But do they go "whooooooo" everytime they go invisible? Didnt think so

lilac stag
#

SHIV

swift tinsel
#

Hey we love our dual-resource single target stun

lilac stag
#

dont forget

#

SHIV

swift tinsel
warm marlin
#

You know it’s funny even how supernova is power creep

short radish
#

yeah when the fuck did mages get aoe stun

warm marlin
#

A 3s aoe stop that doesn’t stun dr

short radish
#

is this a tww thing

swift tinsel
#

Nova was kinda ass in s1

lilac stag
#

speed shroud goated though

swift tinsel
#

Idr ever taking it

hazy breach
short radish
#

fuck mages man

ripe flame
#

truly the main character of the game

swift tinsel
#

Like they literally have everything

queen plinth
#

well 7.2 actually sounds like its low for a 14

swift tinsel
#

It’s insane

short radish
swift tinsel
#

Cables

short radish
#

true, but everyone has that

swift tinsel
#

Which is much better than drums in a brez vs lust alternative

short radish
#

why the fuck is drums so shit

swift tinsel
#

So they have the edge

short radish
#

can they not make drums absolute garbage

swift tinsel
#

And can literally have everything lmao

hazy breach
#

Casual back on DK antennaglorp

short radish
#

I FUCKING HATE MAGES HOLY SHIT

swift tinsel
#

Kekw ofc

#

It pumps too hard

queen plinth
#

actually being mad about other classes is kinda cringe ngl

swift tinsel
#

Should eat another 3-5% aura

short radish
#

and augvokers

#

especially augvokers

#

delete aug

#

at least mages do their own thing

#

aug steals my damage

queen plinth
#

yea im main mage, but still actually being mad about other specs when u can freely reroll is cringe. like we can meme and shit but ACTUALLY crying is wild

#

giving me ret energy here atm

short radish
#

im somewhat memeing but

#

i dont want to reroll

#

i want to play rogue

#

and be useful

#

because i enjoy playing rogue

queen plinth
#

sub ropgue hella busted atm

#

you play the most fun spec

short radish
#

i understand classes need to have "uniqueness" or something

swift tinsel
short radish
#

but like

#

what the fuck does rogue have

#

other than its uniqlely dogshit in utility

queen plinth
#

ngl havent died once in a key yet as sub

#

defensives are so good

lilac stag
slow gorge
swift tinsel
#

Yeah kind of an ivory tower approach

slow gorge
#

And mobility

swift tinsel
#

Pretty disingenuous take

short radish
queen plinth
#

caue your dev is absolutly stupid

short radish
#

MEANWHILE ROGUE POISON STACKS ON ITSELF

#

AND STILL NO ONE TAKES MORE THAN ONE

slow gorge
#

Drop?????

short radish
#

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

slow gorge
#

Who dafuq drop poison

short radish
#

its a shittier paladin DR aura

#

that doesnt work on half the stuff

swift tinsel
#

Supposedly atro doesn’t stack

short radish
#

sometimes

#

oh did they randomly patch it?

#

even though no one was abusing it

#

sounds about right

swift tinsel
#

Per realz in exile’s chat during race

#

Said was patched six months ago

#

But why that wasn’t communicated

#

Is par for the course lmao

short radish
#

because no one was using it anyway

#

so who cares

short radish
#

its not realz fault

#

its the wankers in charge of KPIs

#

and need RoI

queen plinth
#

well the majority of community are hard shitters

#

how do you want them to play complex specs like sub rogue

short radish
#

why put in dev time for a class that 2% of the players play

queen plinth
#

when they struggle to press 3 buttons as ret or bm

frigid prawn
short radish
#

vs a class that 20% of the players play

jaunty island
#

how many flawless stacks are good on second secret technique?

short radish
#

doesnt mattert

#

its not like sub rogue is the only "complex" class

#

and its not even complex

queen plinth
#

its way harder than other classes

lilac stag
queen plinth
#

and since there is a big skillrange in this game people wont play rogue when its this hard to paly

short radish
#

everyone keeps saying that, yet why do i suck at every spec except sub (and ret paladin i guess)

queen plinth
#

sub is not even easy to play hard to amster

#

its just hard to play from start

#

so many buttons to go into your burts

short radish
#

it sounds like that

#

but not really

#

its just

Shadow strike as generator
evis/sectech as spender

queen plinth
#

imagine someone struggling to press hammer of light and spend some holy power decides to play rogue

wheat sentinel
#

I find that aspect of that appealing. I genuinely can't play a bm hunter for more than 5m before getting bored.

short radish
#

its literally the same as ret paladin opener

queen plinth
#

no

short radish
#

you sectech instead of hammer of light

queen plinth
#

brother u press 200 buttons in the opener

karmic harbor
#

is warcraftlogs down

short radish
#

then you spam evis instead of templars verdict

dusk tusk
#

can u tell me how to use suriken? is it just spam on 7+ targets or smth proc for it?

swift tinsel
#

Ret also gets infinite spenders and free resources constantly

queen plinth
#

as ret u press 2

#

3 max

karmic harbor
#

but ye this meme "sub is so hard" thing idgi

swift tinsel
#

So it’s drastically different conceptually

wheat sentinel
#

Not really while bursting

#

It's pretty simple

queen plinth
#

while bursting yea

#

then there is cd management

karmic harbor
#

sub is like learn opener and dance combo and you can play the class

#

arguably more forgiving cause u have so much downtime

swift tinsel
#

Like base kit no optimizations sub is not hard

iron plover
#

Isn’t it less about the actual combo but moreso the CD management that’s hard?

queen plinth
#

casuals wont stand playing this harder spec when they can play easy ass specs

#

so yea rework rogue to a lil easier and boom u get more players its simple

wheat sentinel
#

Well also the devs blatantly favoring ret also helps.

karmic harbor
queen plinth
#

why do you think arcane mage got so many new players in tww s1

#

cause all this double dipping shit was fun and easy to play

swift tinsel
#

Because it was tuned high af

karmic harbor
#

i got 74 avg playing warlock s1, im at 79 rn on sub rogue

wheat sentinel
#

They nuked the fuck out if arcane in s1 though

queen plinth
#

yea it was overtuned

short radish
# queen plinth as ret u press 2

BoJ (1) -> DT (2) -> DH (3) -> ES (4) -> Wake (5) -> HoL (6) -> Judgement (7) -> HoL (7) -> other generator (7) -> templars verdict (8)

vs

Shadowstrike (1) -> flag (2) -> rupture (3) -> backstab/dance/symbols macro (4) -> sectech (5) -> shadowstrike (5) -> evis (6)

wheat sentinel
#

And it wasn't even that strong really

queen plinth
#

but still it was super clean and easy to play

wheat sentinel
#

Compared to like dk

short radish
#

ret confirmed harder than sub

queen plinth
#

no

short radish
#

you heard it first

iron plover
queen plinth
#

there is a difference of pressing some keys or pressing 3 to 4 buttons in 1 second

#

people dont want to put the time in to learn that

short radish
#

i dunno the hard part about sub isn't the rotation

#

its the downtime

queen plinth
#

esepcially if its the casual side of the game who are crying that nobody wants them in their group when they play one buttona ssist

short radish
#

the rotation is so chill man

#

you press like 8 buttons in small burst

#

and then afk for 30 seconds

karmic harbor
#

that's what im saying dude

short radish
#

its just people dont understand you have to sit on your cooldowns

iron plover
#

The top %ers are the loudest no?

queen plinth
#

no

short radish
#

and then they go into flag and only have 1 dance and half a symbols with 0 sectech

#

and go why i do no damage

swift tinsel
#

You should see forums

queen plinth
#

the top whiners are the people wo struggle to clear 10-12s

karmic harbor
swift tinsel
#

Def not top %ers complaining there the most

queen plinth
#

whoa re cryin over meta specs when they cant finish 10s

swift tinsel
iron plover
#

that’s crazy

#

All the ppl that can’t finish +10s at this point understand that they booty cheeks and accept it

#

from my exp

swift tinsel
#

I mean a majority of players don’t see 10’s

#

Discords are sampling bias that way

iron plover
#

dats true

short radish
swift tinsel
#

And become an echo chamber

#

Which a lot of folks don’t realize

#

But it’s important context

queen plinth
#

still i hope u get me, for me sub is not that hard to play aswell , im just trying to optimzie my dmg and master it.
its clearly obvious that casuals and people who play the game for fun dont want to play a spec when its that complicated or when tehre is so many buttons to press in such a small amount of time. when they can play a paladin or the "hey look im a casual and look at my cool kitty cat pet"

#

or even frost mage

swift tinsel
#

That’s fine

#

There should be specs like that

#

You need a spectrum of difficulty

queen plinth
#

which leads to not many people playing the spec which leads to blizzard not giving a f

short radish
#

that's fine, my stance is just that sub is misunderstood of how hard it is

#

because they approach it from the wrong way

queen plinth
#

thats why i like sub

#

but when its difficult less people will play it

#

so blizzard wont give a f

swift tinsel
#

And difficulty can be either mechanical execution or conceptual uniqueness

short radish
#

sub is one of the only classes (i assume) that you actively sit on your cooldowns for more than 10 or 20 seconds

#

but the acutal sub rotation is not hard

#

you build combo points and then you spend combo points

#

you have 1 builder that matters

queen plinth
#

so if blizzard would rework rogue and make it less difficult more people would play it and you would get more changes

short radish
#

and 2 spenders you decide between after you press sectech

swift tinsel
#

Sub is also interesting bc it can very easily make small changes that would lower the perceived barrier of entry without alienating people who like it’s current design

short radish
#

now are there QoL things that they could do for sub sure.

strong shoal
queen plinth
#

im sorry

#

😄

short radish
#

merge sdance + symbols
make sectech only castable in dance
merge blades + flag

#

boom sub is like 50% easier

swift tinsel
rotund urchin
#

What should I do when Cold Blood bugs when I switch to FB?

swift tinsel
#

I think dance needs a bit more cdr to make double dance between each flag the norm

short radish
#

???? MOROES

swift tinsel
#

Instead of alternating

short radish
#

!fuu

queen plinth
#

yea thats what im thinking, just reduce the buttons kinda

rotund urchin
#

!cbbug

swift tinsel
#

Flag and blades absolutely should be merged though

#

Into blades, remove flag

Make all damage shadow either all the time or always in dance/blades

strong shoal
# queen plinth im sorry

All good, just be a bit more respectful and complain about the company instead of the developer. Most of the time they don't really have a say in things

short radish
#

hate the ceo not the dev

swift tinsel
#

Ye it’s 100% the higher ups that make things the way they are

short radish
#

you think devs have any choice on what they work on

vale pine
#

!cbug

red raven
#

so just come back from my hols and seeing that sub is the way to go in keys now?

queen plinth
swift tinsel
#

If devs had unlimited time and resources to work with wow would be in a significantly better state

strong shoal
#

Never was

swift tinsel
#

It’s three devs in a trench coat

#

Mwahaha

red raven
queen plinth
#

imo sub feels good in its state, blizzard should fix all these bugs tho

short radish
strong shoal
#

Same with assa

short radish
#

sub is fine

swift tinsel
#

Ye I think that’s mostly what people want to see

short radish
#

and really fun

#

probably the best state we've been in this expansion

strong shoal
#

Assa is fine but if bugs were fixed, it would feel better

short radish
#

it is semi reliant on prism but even without it we're still fine

swift tinsel
#

Reduce bugs to bring rogue to a more baseline-state so they aren’t confounding tuning and other changes

queen plinth
#

assa boring af

#

sub the goat

short radish
#

yeah agreed

strong shoal
#

Personal opinion

short radish
#

i never want to play assi again in raid

strong shoal
#

But yeah

short radish
#

assi has fake downtime

red raven
#

awesome, ty for that

swift tinsel
#

I played it for one plexus and one loom kill and that was it, rest has been all sub this whole season lol

short radish
#

sub has real downtime

hazy breach

💯

graceful osprey
swift tinsel

I also run logs so I cba to switch off sub bc I’d have to relog

queen plinth

i wish

And that screws with logging. Lol

red raven
#

awesome. sub is much more fun, 1005

mighty citrus
red raven

100%

mighty citrus
#

i always thought prisim is ahead

short radish
#

also you dont need to swap specs as sub all raid

#

except maybe soulhunters

swift tinsel
#

Nope

short radish
#

you just play same build

#

all day erry day

swift tinsel
#

I even play it on fract lol

How much dmg are poisons in our dmg breakdown?

red raven

Give sub rogue some Kyvesa animation and we chilling

The shorter the fight the worse prism is

I literally cannot be bothered to change specs

Instant is like 1.7%ish iirc for me

#

Maybe a bit less

short radish
#

if you are fighting anything that heals

swift tinsel
#

Haven’t looked in a bit

short radish
#

woundpoison is way more value

swift tinsel

Ye

short radish

i think first pull eco dome

#

last pull halls

i dunno what else heals

Ye I go wound on first part dome and halls miniboss

short radish

(i also forgot when i ran ecodome)

Last pull of halls wound goes hard

but so many classes have mortal wounds anyway

i think

limpid sage
short radish

#

okay maybe not that many classes

Esp since we have shadowstep
