i am 60 crests behind
SHEEEEESH
i think we have 15 slots roght? im at work 😄
Since we are clowning hunters
Fury is fun in keys. Very big chill
yeah i hear it's very unga bunga
versa becoming good is nice as well
idk, 60 crests is like 0.7 ilvl?
and the good pieces are probably already upgraded anyways
@vale pine this nightly https://github.com/simulationcraft/simc-publish/actions/runs/17704473164 (#1868 2 days) doesn't have the flag bug, and neither does https://github.com/simulationcraft/simc-publish/actions/runs/17719413094 (#1869 1 day ago). That limits the bug to commits of yesterday and 11 hours ago. So the top commit remains sus
!aoe
General Gist of the Aoe rotation
- At ALL target counts cast Coup de Grace when it is ready.
- At ALL target counts cast Shadowstrike during Shadow Dance, not Shuriken Storm. (unless coup is ready, !coup)
- Cast Black powder instead of regular Eviscerate at 4 or more targets (there is no other secret rule).
lets say you got a 714 myth track item. you need 45 crests to upgrade it to 723 right?
It could be more than 60 im not sure atm slowly getting it back because vault drops higher ilvl items
eleem said that weekly has the flag bug
weekly runs on monday
oic
so it already includes the top commit
what ilvl is the rank 5 myth track?
aah 4
0,8 ilvl should be the overall deficit. I hope it was good weed at least 😄
but could be worse. in dragonflight a mate crafted a int weapon instead of str
wasted one spark and crests with it xD
yea
U can completly avoid this
If u just recraft old items
always keep all crafted items 
or smoke less dude
i almost threw up in my mouth a little looking at workshop again
have to say this season's dungeon pool is much less ass than last season
minus the fact that FG and priory came back
priory is fine minus the footmen

priory becomes a bit of a nightmare the higher in key level you go
the entire 2nd half of the dungeon it's REALLY easy to die
I like those adds last boss p2 with random aggro
not really an issue for rogues
you just pop evasion
and can plant
you mean the padding fodder? 
you might want to feint their aoe too
You didnt enjoy running first pull 80 times ?

ABHHHHH
lol yeah, enjoyed the fact they were immune to blind even more
@tribal blade halp!
Forbidden word
honestly the strat everyone used at the end was pretty chill, you just let 1 go off and defensived it
freed up kicks
the worse thing is, when your group keeps complaining you cant use blind to cc all the xalaffixe orbs

when ive showed and told them 100 times
hunter and shaman are now duoing first boss since tank is mush brain
haha just go into 12s and won't have that issue 😉
idk if its gear at this point
hate affixes
how much u guys simming now
well its always like this the first week of the season, they still complain
atleast now im doing 17s wihu
Like 4.7
HELL yeah
i'm stuck on trying to get 17 priory and ara timed
17 priory hell nah
wdym
been playing a lot with guildies recently
kinda feel like i'm getting sick of key grinding
BRO every single ara run is cursed
sick of key grinding until the key withdrawals come
false 
you mean minus the CATS
ppl die so randomly on these shitters
"HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PLAY AROUND THIS SLOW EXCEPT REROLL TO A DIFFERENT CLASS FUCK YOU BLIZZ"
he was playing prot warr and died to the slow
before last boss
You guys ever burst adds on second boss in halls so they boom Exactly at the same time
idk
And wipe everyone
yes you're missing like 4ish ilvl on most people atm i think
i'm 713 atm and that's not very impressive ilvl
i could be one of those guys if i got raid loot smile
actually would prob be more like 714-15 maybe
oh yeah, i might be fucked on that end since i do not raid mythic
stuck on 1 myth track item per week
it's very easy to do 2/8M this season
there's 0 danger pugging it
because the 1st boss is harder than soulbinder
ill try this reset
so if the group can kill 1st boss then you're guaranteed 2nd
soulbinder is 2nd in mythic?
I saw some pugs going 4/8
Those were full of stacked people though
stupid easy
why skip loom though
You get loot from him If you kill soulbinder
loom is much harder than soulbinder
oh rly?
yeah loom has specific assignments and stuff
its so free on hc i though it was as well in myth
soulbinder is just use half your brain and boss dies
the main mythic change on loom is you have to soak these beams shooting to the boss
you need to do some immune soaking too
which i do with cloak
U can solosoak
it takes some coordination
chilling
also much easier to die on loom than soulbinder
Dimmy is more frustrating to play
stealthi, record more povs for your youtube channel
I enjoy sending cds into my guildies
people are begging for it
There would have been a Nexus King one but my file Got corrupted
Dim is a goated boss tbh
Is charrend cooking
Nah this was a cook by someone else im pretty sure
Finna run some keys with ur talents when i get home
I tried it with brew but shadowcraft goes brrr
Banned. Thats illegal to say about a boss with multiple dmg stops
Simply have your guild not do enough damage 5head
hey that's my guild
My guilds going into it with a full vault and vantus next week. Got to p2 in 40 pulls last thursday
The damage stops are going to be real...
Platforms
ahhh
U dont wanna go too fast because everyones cds will desync
mmm makes sense
you go into the next one with nothing up
and then go into burn phase with nothing up
i'm assuming
Yep
gotcha
Really wanna phase to p3 after the push
Honestly liked the dmg stops
Ladies and gentlemen, good luck on vault today
Free sht stacks + coup prep
Na people 
that
is
unreal
I wish my vault was today
32 deaths is madness
Aussies
also nice sneaky lil 1:18am kill
gz tho

No splits wr 50 though
Anyone peeping the nepal situation
???????????
im not taking oce slander
after the americans ive just played with

someone dropped heroic tier hands on soulbinder; but he has champ track. i have 675 hands and he said he cant trade.
is he lying or is it because its a token that he has champ track for and he won the loot for a heroic?
champ track and its heroic
for fucks sake
it was a 50-50 i made a raid and i was like "ok the tank has champ track.."
"surely i can win 1 person"

apparently not
literally the one item he has champ btw
he bamboozled you
I'm doing hard mode taz for the first time ever as rogue in general today (especially sub), any tips for me to not grief my group completely?
use cheat death
you can kidney many casters
roger that
Vanish cloak evasion and heartstone every boss
U wont be reliable for death
dont forget feint
You can stack up prism before bosses if your team let's you
fuu
can hold on coup too
the command you want is !log
u can always ask @tepid trellis
omg i want any good rogue to give me a hand i have no money for cosching
he helps as often as he can
and i have raid tonifht on a 6/8 guild
that im going as sub
u alredy mentioned him so im not gonna bother hope he see this
Youre better off just asking what you want to know here, im sure someone will give you an answer
i dont have like actual questions i have some basics and i dont know what to ask
i just wanna send a log i sented on hc testing rotation
!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.
start there. if you have more specific questions, use !log
I can take a glance at it in a bit if you want
man i am really struggling to get to grips with sub. plz somebody tell me it is harder to understand than assa and that im not just dumb 🤣
I think the initial barrier to entry may be higher than assa, but I do think sub is pretty straightforward once you finally understand how the cd phases come together
ill have a lot of mistakes i started playing sub 3 days ago
never played it
i know in that logged i missed de backstab
i shoulda used bacjstab without shadow blades
i did know it before, so i save someone telling me
you shouldn't send CB with the first sectech
so the 2nd
review the !mistakes bit up there first
we got mythic plexus today, kept wasting a dance charge going into shadowblades tho
Just took a quick peek at it, cb first st is bad, you also only had 1 dance for your 1:30 cds set bc you sent 3 dances between your cooldowns
Thats a big problem
is there a rule of thumb for not dancing? sometimes i do it at 40 sec and get away with it but ye is there like a wa timer or something

tokin
do u hace a reminder
or a cd u will se before thinking about sending a shadow dance
see*
Just a rule of thumb for you as someone new
Only 2 dances between cds
Anything more then that i would skip for now
so after using 2 shadow dances i just backstab
we did get mythic plexus doe
until my next set of cds
some WA packs come with estimators too for how many dance and symbols you'll have up by flag comes off cd
Yes
1 question im
could you explain the skip for now bit? it sounds like there's some extra thing that could be said there
is this reliable, i mean if good rogues are doing this or is just a suggestion that is better than what in doing
when Flag comes off cd, you want to at the very minimum have 1 charge of dance up and at most 40 sec of cd left on your 2nd dance charge
that guarantees you can have 2 dances up for your flag window. sometimes you may want to save up more so you can triple dance with flag
i just want a set up a tank 50 parse atleast i know i can do it just wanna get stuff the best way
thank you
that was what i needed
Mostly dependant on the fight, but you can often send a naked symbol between cds aswell
i should have 1 dance and 40 sec of the other one
atkeast for my next set of cds
1 question i see everytime before sending flag u build full combo points it is that only on opener?
or i do the same at my 2’nd set
you want to activate flag with full combo points saved up
read what it does. it gets stronger the more cps you spend
rupture should i reapply at 8 seconds
yes i jnew that
There is nothing special about the opener
i just wanted to know if its the same
Every single burst should look exactly like the opener
so its everytime backstab first global in dqnce
(besides the first shadow strike, but you should be at full cp when you flag)
never shadowstrike
o i can shadowstrike and the backstab after i secret tech
or is something behin the use od that backstab
you should reread the guides first, I think there's a lot of gaps in your knowledge atm
do we have any videos
shidigw has one
ok
would i be worth macroing flagellation and shadow blades together or are there situations you would use one without the other? (brand new to sub sorry)
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.
flag and sb have diff buff durations, so if you press them together, you're losing valuable uptime on your cds, and that's really bad because like 70% of our damage happens in that cd phase
the guide is from 5 months ago
ahh i see. good to know
ty
oooh so you are using flag then SD for premed and then shadow blades
is that correct?
well you want to build up flag as quickly as possible because it's the biggest damage amp we have, Shadowblades is nice, but premed basically gives you a "free" refill which is what SB does too. Think of it more as we're using premed to delay pressing SB as much as possible so the damage overlap lasts as long as possible
You will take it and enjoy it… mate!
We had more deaths in a 7 DB than I’ve had I think the entire season in DB. 
try healing those 💀
tank blamed the healer. I asked him 1. Please hold aggro. 2. MF shaman isn’t going to be able to heal the lock and hunter when they’ve decided to stand at opposite ends of the gdamn boat at 40 yards from him.
healer why are you oom again?
Tank: can you press stagger?
I love hunters that never press defensives and don't stand in healing rain or other similar abilities
But seriously though, hunter io don't mean shit
dude though he was SV on last boss. Couldn’t be bothered to get bombs
oh yea, that's fun too lmao. did you finish that key?
6 crests later….
just do that 10 more times and you can craft your first weapon
figured I may as well gear something else as the inevitable raid nerfs and other spec tunings make subs usefulness dwindle
already filled vault and weapon. Have 150 crests.
had a mage blink in to melee to pick up a bomb on my DK alt, i decided that the one in ranged was not getting picked up
couldn’t see the other bombs… out in ranged area of the ship
low keys are insane, you never know what you might end up with
i havnt seen low keys this bad in 10 years
9 flood gate. Thoughts and prayers please.
then i saw some graphj where 70% of runs were +10 or above
even weekly 12s felt like a complete gamble this week
I wonder what route we’re doing.
did a 10 dawnbreaker and someone didnt know what to do with the green wave
just kept hitting the whole group
idk if he was trolling or what
is it bad to macro tea with sectec ?
Thistle tea use:
It is recommended to macro Thistle Tea with Shadow Dance like this:
/cast Shadow Dance
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null```
I unmacro’d my tea as it allows for greater situational control
In keys..
You want that extra mastery on big pulls with cds and if you macro to tea you won’t have two charges in your cd windows, just something to consider
Have to be careful not to autoproc as well inbetween bursts
Here’s something I’m doing wrong.. at the start of a big pull with full cds, are people building flagellation stacks before sending cds and if so how long/how many stacks? Usually I spread 4 ruptures and the send but I could be missing out on a lot of damage
I macro my tea to my shadow dance backstab for ultimate control 
For ease you mean 🙂
I did that for awhile too. But in keys your playing around big bursts and if your sending a 4th tea on your 4th dance, that’s a tea you won’t have in your CD’s when the tank goes and does the giga chad pull.
Tea is a meme, people like the vigor part and think the mastery is the big gain
You’ll have charges for your opener then a few dances here and there
Hello friends, is there anything specific to watch out for in the raid on sub? I've only played it in m+ and I'm going to have my first trial raid in a decade tomorrow 
It’s like tfd
Yeah just a situational thing, if your struggling with binds you can macro and fire and forget but if you want to optimise to the route.. you should go manual
You won’t have it all the time but you can game it a bit
Eh manual tea sounds like not worth the squeeze
You don’t gain anything playing around not proccing
+16% mastery with cds is kinda big though
Holding your globals outside to make sure you dont proc it kinda offsets the extra damage you'd get from using it with cds
Not when you already have a fuckton of mastery from gear and flag
So its really whatever
Disagree
Its like 6% more finisher damage or so
You can but the numbers don’t really agree with that sentiment
Procing outside of cds.. outside of dance

whilst there is a few mobs leftover
Turns out youre also inside dance
Is wasteful
I mean ofc proccing it right as the mobs dies is silly
Yeah realistically you should be prepping for the next pull at that point
@plush roost did you try the talents but with cb
who would have though wasting resources would be bad
so if im not giving a single look at tea and actually waste the charges without preping, going cb would be better?
No it doesnt matter
cause im shuriken storming bping the shit out of packs even on low energy
Yeah I feel like vigor is what people actually like about the tea build but don’t realize it
Yes and the extra cdr you get from being able to do that more with tea is also fine
yeah tbh i do miss the extra energy a bit
people tend to focus on the wrong things
for the free feints

watch me shiv and cheapshot for that juicy 12% more dam
Giga-Zap!
Bro if you don’t end dance with 12 DM stacks what are you even doing
What if I only have FW on 8 of the 11 mobs?!?! Clearly rotten is better.

how are people bursting 40-50 mil tho? 🙂 im bursting like 28 maybe 30 in pull after priory first boss with 18 stacks of prism 🙂
get mythic prism
cuz they got more aura than you
pressed burst correctly
@queen plinth let me know bro!
I feel its flag stacks before cds
BP more
proc more coups
Burst ≠ the number at the end of a pull
And pre farm shadowy technique stacks by going afk and not pressing finishes 9 seconds prior to flag
Press black arrow more
To allow free refunds pewpewpew in cds
bursting 60 or so mil just comes down to getting a bit lucky with coups while playing properly
need to do a cheap shot for that extra DM stack
thats all there really is too it
someone post the hidden fuu opener
Love me some rng mixed into backstab soup
Its true on mythic forgeweaver rekill last night on one pull i had coup for like every set of adds and was doing 9.5m by the end of first intermission
it also like if you are doing shitter keys (weekly keys)
its just about sniping all of the useless adds first
yeah
need opinions
finna go try it out
im running 15s 🙁 and my overall sucks ass
Take goremaws, trust 💯
i mean atleast the 15 halls i was kinda even with that shit meta bm moron
bro LIKE HOW
doing dmg is ethical
im leaving priory with 8 mil max
not schizo
when do you walk out to keep prism stacks?
key gets put in
They key is to delete the mobs before other Dps can Dps
yep
atleast you could 6 days ago when i tried it
im doing that from now on
still works
ty
press 1-2-3 correctly and be 717 with mythic trinkets
Guys how good is sub prio dmg? Cause i see ppl say they pump evis but when i do it and check details its kinda… mid
Its fine
how do you guys deal with short dances and your coup proqs do you send coup inside dance and 4 set coup outside?
i think they removed the storm -> evi funnel end of bfa, maybe SL. Not so sure anymore
cause thats what happens for me a lot
start of BFA
arcane basically has shuriken combo
fuck mages
Zul is the answer
amen
get better coup procs to pump evis(priority)
anyone playing rogue is stuck in 2018
shuriken combo my beloved
¯_(ツ)_/¯
my guy my brain has no room for that useless of information
dratnos spire of ascension pug routes 
does any dungeon actaully need more than W?
No
gonna be real with you chief
well it depends
priort has some weird left and right shit
are you talking weekly 10s
anytime someone linked a dratnos route in a pug key
or high keys
that was an instant leave
i wish I was high running keys. would be more enjoyable
it's not
maybe need crack then
I’ve been running mostly guild keys and being high for those would be a blast
https://www.twitch.tv/krystalbella/clip/BetterDeterminedEndiveMVGame-y3uUBROct9v1fYOX
my healer last night sitting at 67% health
dying to the beam
and then not timing it by 12 seconds
694 warlock complaining in the 9 for tank to either pull more or not. 
Healers when you tell them to do their job:
can't even heal themselves
The funny ones don’t have their own unit frame in party and forget to heal themselves

usually if you're first, it's not coming towards you 
you still get damaged by it
mmhm
as evidenced by the dead shaman
which is the funny part
ok, which is the real one?
ankh is the best defensive
until you didn't math the death cost into the timer
^
i mean
we had other scuffed moments in there
like 3 people dying at dragon boss on 3% health
and then people being bolted
that's frustrating, but it's like the kid playing goalie. everyone else fucked up, but you're still screwed
play perfect after everyone else screwed up
yeah
idk im just still salty about 3 keys being bricked in a row
warcraft recorder isnt doing good things for me
being able to review makes me madder and more toxic
have you thought about going outside and playing RL borderlands?
guns illegal in australia
in my keys yes
it's like prophet's feral
look at my FDKs overall in this
what lua error?
fdk is so braindead easy idk how you can not do damage on it
he died 5 seconds into 3/5 pulls
“Fatality” is bug sack going off
Bug sack has me trained
i mean i probably do have lua errors
To twitch when that goes off
my entire UI and WAs is an absolute and utter dumpster
WHERE ARE MY FRAMES GOING?!!!
im surprised no one has given me shit for having my raidframes on the right
You’re upside down so they’re actually left

been ages since I played rogue, we still want shadowstrike and backstab on separate buttons?
kinda yeah but also if you dont want to it's fine
!bs
Backstab/Shadow Dance/Tea Macro:yaml #Showtooltip Shadow Dance /cast [bonusbar:1] Backstab; Shadow Dance /castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, nullThis will cast Shadow Dance and Tea(if talented) on first key press and Backstab on second key press.
can also have that
if youre used to it th en keep doing it
i have them on separate binds
the optimisation is there for dance -> backstab (to consume premed) -> sectech
likely just need dance+bs separate and leave bs/strike as an auto switch

healers are ill
they whine and complain when their jobs are easy because they never get to heal
never trust a tank + healer combo in key
oh no absolutely not
that's how you get into a cursed throuple
yeah i just learnt that the hard way
😭 🫂
Can’t wait for them to add leaver penalty to raid
And needing 19 votes to go through
hate watched the vod to hear the tank going "its not all your fault, it's also the rest of the partys fault. all melee comp is terrible and i also hate rogues because i need to wait for them to stealth. i'm never playing with a rogue again"
which hes kinda right it being also everyone elses fault because of the other wipes before
but also
never again

If someone has 20 more ub procs than me in a 5 min fight am i unlucky with tierset procs or Wrong rotation
20 Sounds like alot
yeah delete rogue
and remake it
you rolled a bad rng seed on that char
yeah just proc more
And i cant pinpoint anything else then gg go next no luck
on big packs (like the first pull in FG) how many ruptures am i wanting to chuck out roughly? and do i apply them all before going in to burst window?
They casted 2 more sectech
Which is 4 more procs
But ye the remianing 16 are just luck
generally with any big pull
Ye i figured
i do 1 rupture
max 2
before flag -> rupture
because everything is gatherd by then
Once it’s gathered, u best be blasting
@short radish what are you needing from vault?
mythic prism but that's not going to drop since we extended
so i'll take mythic taz shoulders
or a ring

extended after one night of saladbar
because RL didnt trust us to reclear (hes kinda right)
I think it’s either heroic forge or shoulders/antenna mythic
maybe alpha
It’s a weird vault this week
lowkey i want my guild to extend too
We should have had 3 more bosses on loot table, but dumb shit happens
if you're a borderline hall of fame (shame) guild
but idk we have a big roster so ig a lot of ppl just wouldnt play for 2 weeks or smn
Our roster is too big
bro thinks hes gonna slide in the dms



passenger princesses man.
but yeah about 40 pulls of these are prenerf
and even still
after 1-2 nights of prog post nerf
guilds still struggling
because looking at ghosts are hard
Ghosts do be lethal
arcane mages and not channeling arcane missles during ghosts
difficulty: extremely hard

hurr durr ranged gets all the mechanics melee have it easy
yeah because ranged do nothing for 95% of the fight
so they get forced to acutally press a movement ability key
???
new tech
i lost 100k dps
yeah its bugged or something
new bug fix just dropped
!guides
Okay hear me out. I think we've been thinking about the number of ruptures to apply on opener before CDs in the wrong way. Because if we look at rupture (7 letters) and cooldown (8 letters) we get 15 letters. 1+5 = 6. Six is the number of secret preparation. But what's the sacred midpoint of 6? 3. And what's 3? a trinity.
QED, you apply the trinity of ruptures in order to open the Waygate of Optimal Damage. One rupture for the body (physical, representing the damage of the bleed); one rupture for the mind (mental, the path needed to execute the opener); one rupture for the unseen (spiritual, representing the sloth, the tank who is still gathering).
Then -- and only then -- you burst. 😤

Is it optimal to save a cupdegra proc if my SB is coming up in 15-20seconds?
!coup
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.
Should have done kyveza ??
If you cannot defeat Kyveza, do not bother showing up to raid. This boss is a baseline mechanics check. If you cannot handle mechanics while maintaining a strong DPS or HPS rotation, you will only drag the group down on the harder fights ahead.
This is not optional. This is not "just a warm-up boss." This is the fight that tells us whether you can balance your gameplay fundamentals aka: awareness, movement, uptime, and performance but all at once. If you fail here, you will fail later.
If you can't be bothered to put in the hours to grind this fight, you are disrespecting the other 25 players on this roster who are putting in the work. This is a preparatory fight for a multi-week raid, and it requires commitment. If you can't commit now, you won't commit later.
You all said you wanted to improve as a raid and get a better ranking. That doesn't start with someone else carrying you, it starts with you improving your own gameplay. If you can't do that, you're dead weight. And yes, I'm talking to you, you slug.
And before anyone even thinks about saying, "my class isn't designed for this encounter" fucking save it. I've seen hundreds of Chinese VODs of Kyveza beaten on every single spec and every single hero talent combination possible. The fight is beatable. The capability exists. The only difference between them and you is execution and effort.
So here's the bottom line: Beat Kyveza before raid night, or don't show up.
dropped that again before the boss
i half meant it as a joke
but also kinda serious
Swap to tank spec. Enable 1 button rotation and good to go.
collecting them like candy
(yes it was rolled back)
honestly not a terrible vault considering it's only m+ options
i could take the ring or dagger
kinda sick to get the ring
yeah
but dagger is acutally useful for prog
i think im holding until nexus king dies tonight 
what's the deal with playing Thistle vs Cold Blood
and if dagger doesnt drop from there
i take dagger
because 3 ilvl on dagger is still like 1% dps upgrade or something
i think
yeah that's what it was for me. a lil over 1%
Not a bad vault 
I forgot to turn on my computer so I could remote in to check my vault while at work

Tea = slightly more aoe, cb = slightly more st
woooo reset
cheers
and i'm still hating myself b/c last week I passed on mythic tier legs because I got an outlaw weapon and I thought "sure how bad could outlaw feel rn?"
Ye I mean, if people had done the fight
The ghost mechanic on Nexus king is piss easy compared to kyveza
took like 2 or 300+ pulls though
yeah 1.2
still feels like a hold angle since we're not reclearing
not bad
Wtf am I watching?
we love mega medalion (probably sims still running)
gzgz
why are you running bugged sims? 
i wanna stop extending i miss raid vault
@leaden prairie How you so high mate?
Just get loot
Splits funnel i guess
imagone doing spl*ts
Bro spent extra gilded upgrading an outlaw weapon and still that high 
Skill diff frfr
sadge
I should be higher I got unlucky this week..

Stop flex
But yeah just kill raid bosses
weirdo
Get 717 loot from vault
But ye
Saves lots of crests
That's that
Indeed
It make sense
I got 3 vaults 717 already
You can't imagine how much crests that is
It's crazy
slightly hot take but i dislike they made this c hange
Surely mythic prism will be waiting for me when I get home
So I get it before dimmy dies
the rng variance between people is even further because of it
Harvesters Edict the GOAT???

Okay, it helps
Maybe ye
Rng is wild
like im out here 713 ilvl
Yes, with the crest cap, it's even more rng to get high ilvl fast
I'm here with my 713
and didnt reclear or something
Cuz only good stuff was M+ vault and not M raid
I’ve taken raid vault every single week and only 715
4 ilvl diff same week is kinda huge this early
It is what it is
Good players get good loots
Real

Ye that's unlucky
I just got lucky
I barely got anything from raid
just crit
Vaults are just op
Yes, but you need to kill higher tier bosses for high ilvl loot
So you need to be good
You see what I mean?
also true
does it matter if stonebound is on mh or oh?
no
Noob
I'll be full stuff on tournament realm
WE HAD 2 HOURS TO KILL IT
EZ
O hell nah bro how u progress backwards
OCE things
He didn't
nah sorted by boss %
it's ordered by %
thats by date
It's just order by %
Oh
one more guy to say it
It's order just % by
we confirmed he was stupid
same
too much finger apm from fury
i raise you, forgeweaver reclear
(after this we switched to putting adds behind puddles)
us when we do the lust on pull strat except this time we dont have vantus from vers and half the raid taking sockets from vault
yes that 15% wipe was 15.1%
not the brainless wa boss smh
genuinely this shit would be easier to pug than loomithar
yeah
well
people still need to not die
and healers need to stay awake to heal
so its kinda hard ig
¯_(ツ)_/¯
might be socket week unironically 

The ring though 
i hope you step on a puddle while you're wearing socks
already 2x myth ring, not using antenna on dimmy, and could craft neck
yeah but thats minus 3 ilvl
Are the head/boots not free crest upgrades either?
Anyone have thoughts on double on use trinkets? Have hero NP currently and Araz myth in vault. Lot of top parses are using both., but any reasons not to take?
got crest save from hm taz for hero boots 🙈
Bro juiced
good for last 2 bosses
nvm neck is juiced
kinda fun as well because you can stack prism even more
and bigger numbers active even more neurons in brian
ty mr australian man
I need this for dimmy p3 so I can do 60% of the damage of a bm hunter
are you on dimmy?
same situation
i feel like getting the myth m+ belt is better future proofing rather than getting a myth head, they both drop off plexus anyway
what a 😐 vault
Did something change with raidbots and Sims? Cause i would swear I was simming 200k higher as sub yesterday 
me? we are on demon hunters, but we recleared and got fract. so fract loot table includes demon hunters
so i have 2 slots
extending on soul hunters thats crazy
probably true
i asked my rl and we arent extending till nexus king dies, we got to him last week
!addons
a lot but also getting buff today/tommorow and in 3 weeks takes care of that
and whatever nerfs blizzard do
they just did nerfs on last 2 bosses so doubt we are seeing more of those
maybe soulhunters are gonna get some small nerf dont know how lower ranked guilds handle that boss
its definitely the meme boss
the raid comp we have to bring consists of 3 melee
i dont mind it since im one of the 3 melee
our only mechanic is that pickup green soaks thing
rest is just dodge
or stick to ur tether buddy
I already have a hero crystal, should I take the myth one?
how does it work to keep prism stacks
he puts key in while pulltimer i go out and then join after wall is gone?
yes
kk
same actually
and then you reenter when bubble is gone
"put in" as in he oput the key in the thig but didnt start yet?
so he starts i go out and reenter when wall is down?
yes
kk
anyone else having the problem only in gambit that it takes ages to get rif of that "white mist" after transitioning to the next station (after titandude and pirate drake)
i can walk and attack but only see the white stuff for like 30 seconds
at least i'm not the only one, i thought i was going crazy
yea latest sim is 200k less for some reason
The robot has developed a love for rupture spamming
!wa
Yes not the best blades window I’ve ever seen
question:
if i dont have shadow blades active, but i have shadow dance active, should i use use coup during dance window or best to wave shadowstrike > black powder and just use coup outside dance?
they are aware of that bug btw
coup in dance
so coup is prio always?
!aoe
General Gist of the Aoe rotation
- At ALL target counts cast Coup de Grace when it is ready.
- At ALL target counts cast Shadowstrike during Shadow Dance, not Shuriken Storm. (unless coup is ready, !coup)
- Cast Black powder instead of regular Eviscerate at 4 or more targets (there is no other secret rule).
sectec prio over coup
if it's outlaw that confuses you, sub doesn't follow outlaw rules for coup. You do most of your damage in dances, so you coup in dances if you can't sectec. You even save coup if your CDs are approaching
what else are you considering in that vault
Im trying to sim my vault drops, and its my first time. I'm a little lost, does anybody have a link to a guide or something so I could teach myself how to do this>
tysm!
!macro
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.
So we only coup outside of a dance if it would otherwise expire, right?
can i check, what do you do if you proc a coup with no dance charges availabe, do you send it or bp until you can dance & symbol
!coup
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.

You do not hold coup in any scenario except the one above
you don't want to never coup outside of dances because then you lose cdr on dances
Makes perfect sense
you just said conflicting things though
What is conflicting
don't want to never
you said dont hold coup and ninja said dont coup outside of dance
Easier way to read it is you only DO hold if your CDs are imminent (sub-10 seconds away)
I got a dagger and two off meta trinkets in the vault this week lol
Otherwise the CDR alone is worth the relatively weaker coups outside dance
ok ty
Actually just to be sure -- by CDs here do we mean any dance (including non-flag) or just flag? Like if you have a coup up, Dance up in 9 seconds and Flag is still a minute away
Flag
Cool ty
You can stop using finishers
does this include rupture
rupture if its falling off
so what if i proq coup and have no dance or symbol i just press nothing in st?
even when i have literally no cds coming up soon
yes you press it
coup up = press unless cds close
Overall it seems like the answer is usually "if you have coup, hit it"
you only ever hold coup when your flag is a few seconds away
you always press coup unless youre 10s away from flag
Can someone tell me how people are using flag at 0:01 and 1:23 on nexus king according to Lorrgs?
How are they using it 8 seconds early?

Question on nimble flurry. If your overall damage breakdown has similar coup cast numbers to a higher parse but lower damage AND your flurry damage is way lower, it's likely those are the same issue right, or at least connected? Misusing/mismanaging coups, basically?
seen some logs with sus coup dmg tbh
I would not make a general statement around that cuz any number of things would change what thats abt
well pull size matters, amount of shadowstrike casts matters
and if you have good Coup rng during blades
flawless form stacks too
I'm really struggling to achieve the appropriate flurry damage that higher logs get, the recurring cast issues are way too many backstabs and too few shadowstrikes but I'm not really sure how I'm overusing BS to this degree
well you at most backstab once
per dance on AoE
other than that you dont really press it
I must be mashing it by mistake or something because I'm baffled at how high my BS numbers are, like I'll have over 300 hits in some keys
is that in dances or in general? If you don't get enough dances you will have a different BS:SS ratio too
thats my breakdown from a random priory i did
In general. I don't think I've ever had flurry be over 30% of my overall ever and that's consistently how good logs look
I'm sure I'm making mistakes in the burst window, I've been working on this spec for like a week but this is pretty consistently where I'm falling short on the damage breakdowns
not gonna deep dive into the log, but you are pressing storm too much during dances
that will also lower your flurry dmg
you also miss globals in dances, by activating shadow dance mid global and or not pressing anything for like half a sec after dancing
^
I think it is likely that I just don't have a good enough grasp of the burst sequence and my brain kinda defaults to the filler buttons when I get mentally jammed, which is obviously bad but it's fixable
Yeah theres a lot going on here thats wrong, but I would start with fixing your rotation from the very get go
Your understanding of teh cooldown window seems to be a bit off
By this do you mean like hitting the premed backstab (1 sec), dance mid-global (1.5) and not getting to the next button fast eneough (2 sec)
You want to chain dances inside flag windows
you're not leading to your largest damage loss
So not hitting the second dance quickly enough during flag basically
Yes, you're also hitting symbols randomly it appears
Dance -0.5 delay backstab
Is what i mean
The premed backstab comes after dance, which also seems to be a consistent issue
You only ever hit symbols inside of shadow dance, and at most two gcds before sectec
A lot of your flags have backstab dance backstab
Yeah I've been doing this on purpose, easy fix. Was misremembering the guide I suppose
Anyone got thoughts on maybe putting BS on the Dance button so you can go tap tap and get both
Dance + BS?
