its already out of date

#

you don't have this super long downtimes anymore

#

because dance cd was reduced

#

but the iteration just has many other problems

fossil forge
#

Watch shindigs vid

vale pine
#

blizz removed some core elements which made it work and seemingly

fossil forge
vale pine
#

did not plan to spend a lot of time to iterate after

#

tho probably realized after some early feedback

#

that they need to, but its hard to predict how much "extra time" they actually have

#

because the release shedule seems fairly tight

tulip folio
#

ill check shindig vid

#

thanks alot for help w community as always

#

❤️

tulip folio
#

there is no midnight vid from shindig

fossil forge
#

oooo i thought ur still talking bout rotation

#

Mybad twin

tribal blade
#

we gonna kill dim on reset

#

and our WW is out this week so no monk buff

#

🙂

tulip folio
#

just interest whats avg pull for guilds to beat it

tribal blade
#

it's gonna be easier for your guild to prog with turbo boost and full raid buff

#

but it's a complicated fight, there's a lot of different moving parts

latent finch
#

We started after turbo boost. And sadly we have just to few braincells over 20 people to get out of p1 consistently even after 170 pulls garf_sit

tribal blade
#

haha yeah i feel that

#

it doesn't take much to die in P1

humble rover
#

how much of a dps increase would an offhand weapon be compared to like a chest, i have a vague memory of offhand not doing too much with dps, unless it has a certain dmg affix on it

tribal blade
#

offhand

#

out of all slots

#

chest, legs and helm are the highest impact tier slots

latent finch
tribal blade
#

platforms are pretty cursed yeah

#

so much out of your control haha

tulip folio
tribal blade
#

just have to pray every pull the ranged kill the right add

tribal blade
#

very easily could have died last raid night

latent finch
#

How does it comes always back t owait for ranges to get their shit togheter xD

tulip folio
#

yeah i feel ya lots of pressure thoes type of times

tribal blade
#

playing sub on the fight feels like so much plate spinning

#

i experimented with a bunch of cd usage

#

my RL made the call for our spriest to start holding dps in P1 so me and our WW could get our 1.5 min cds back before plat 1

#

which was very nice

#

we were sometimes pushing so fast i would have like 15ish seconds left on flag on landing

#

even longer

lilac stag
#

I hope we kill NK today. My poor broken eyes can’t take another week of looking for ghosts.

tribal blade
#

and then will be on to wishing you could be back on NK again lol

lilac stag
#

Maybe we both celebrate kills tonight

tribal blade
#

when you're doing dim

lilac stag
#

nah. dim I can mostly see everything on

#

NK is the worst fight for my vision issues by far

tribal blade
#

depends on if we have to reprog with a new person

#

yeah it sucks, i also have bad vision

#

i got around it by completely stopping my rotation during ghosts

lilac stag
#

horse blinders looking for 3 ghosts. Weeeeee

tribal blade
#

and then using my peripherals to locate them

lilac stag
#

I don’t have peripheral kekdog

tribal blade
#

haha fair enough

lilac stag
#

depth perception also sus

#

Very good at hanging pictures though.

tribal blade
#

the ghosts are interesting on the fight

#

it's something completely in your own hands

#

nobody else can help you

lilac stag
#

What’s also fun. The strength trinket “visual spawn” looks very close to the ghost spawn.

tribal blade
#

oh that's cursed

lilac stag
#

the fight is fun, just visual disabilities not be fun and there’s no way to really help it

tribal blade
#

dim is kind of a lot to handle as a fight

#

but it's definitely easier to see things

#

WELL

#

actually no

#

his hands are really stupid in P1

#

you'll wipe a bunch to people not being able to see

#

trying to rescue people with him cockblocking with his hands is so bad

maiden oar
lilac stag
#

Unironically the best spot for me to see the ghosts I can’t go because it baits the tornados in a bad location.

maiden oar
#

but i was so happy to get the 2nd loom dagger

#

generally low prio

#

couldve also recrafted but the sim only really liked the embellishment swap after i got the 2nd gene splicer for some reason

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

yeah it's awful

#

and confusing

maiden oar
#

the hand is so evil

#

i had to learn a new camera angle to see the little puddles when the soak goes live because his fat fingers hid one once

#

disaster!

tribal blade
#

blizz keeps trying to make visual clarity better and then they do that

#

weird

lilac stag
#

I’m hopeful it will work, but also very cautious with it.

vale pine
#

don't think so

#

it seems like a boring but overall stable talent

#

i was so tilted with assa last reclear that i will play sub again on last two 😄

#

this random cdr drive me crazy

pale stream
#

Anyone know what talent we had on beta before this:

#

It looks like they changed the Deepening Shadows to prolong Shadow Dance instead of reducing its CD or was it like this too before? 🙂

#

One of em ended up being kill pull (NK)

#

I was fckin fuming

Skill issue not using sectech before dying garf_sit

Keeping disorienting strikes for the next pull

Now im ready to be even more pissed off with those damn Dimmy timers

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.

is assa better than sub on Dimmy now? thought it was the other way around but theyre higher on wcl rankings

edgy zenith
#

sin will always be better than sub at some point in the tier

#

it is written

chrome palm
#

almost 9 mil dimengy

#

if i had more than 2 coups in burn it surely wouldve been 9

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

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.

willow mantle
#

assuming we're not considering a movement heavy fight like dimmy, how close/far is using prism/antenna vs prism/ritual forge? the sim says double on use isn't accurate

bleak night
#

i believe they went in and made sure double on use was accurate for prism this patch

tulip folio
#

guys im playing with ascendance on my dagger and wrist that double effect for embelishments in case i get another myth track gene splicer what should i go as embelishments becouse we want to have 3 myth track loom daggers right

#

?

lilac stag
#

that’s a sim question

chrome palm
willow mantle
chrome palm
#

forge/prism is good, just make sure that you always use prism with your last blades

willow mantle
#

and alternate usage before yeah?

chrome palm
#

generally yes, but if you have a ~4:00 kill timing, you can do
0:00 - blades/forge/potion
0:20 - prism
2:00 - blades/forge
3:30 - blades/prism

!coup

wicked joltBOT
#

Coup de Grace Optimizations:

  • **Number 1: ** You can hold coup up to ~20 secounds and stop using finishers ~10 seconds before your Flagellation comes up on Single Target. The later is used 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.

#

how important is stacking stuff before p3 dimmy? Like pressing a raw symbols for supercharger / getting shadow technique stacks up at the end of pargoth, I find that it's hard to do any of that meaningfully and shadow dance the last ad set on pargoth. Is it one or the other?

#

assuming timer where you can send at beginning of pargoth / dimensius

fossil forge
#

Very actually

#

do ppl start skipping cds on second platform just to have it for burn?

fossil forge
#

Yes

clever delta
#

cool

#

i kinda struggle to do dmg on that boss .D

fossil forge
#

you can cd both with hpal ig

tulip folio
#

is there wa or some way to track Prism stacks better

#

?

probably alot of em on wago

dear lord what do i take

#

socket on ring is cheep i think nerub signet is da bis

iron obsidian
humble rover
iron obsidian
tepid trellis
#

707 so yeh

iron obsidian
#

then yeah sim it

humble rover
#

Still dont think sim matters for thr future when i have 695 itemlvl, according to "bis" list on wowhead i should take high nerubian signet

iron obsidian
#

its bs

#

sim it

#

please

humble rover
#

But bis lists are usually hard to attain anyways

iron obsidian
#

for the love of god

humble rover
#

But what will sim do when i replace 1/3 of my gear today

iron obsidian
#

youll sim the 2 rings

#

and take which one is better

tepid trellis
#

its likely an item you wont replace, thats why

iron obsidian
#

because both are myth you wont be replacing one of them

humble rover
#

I understand i wont replace the ring, but the sim result will be skewed since it might favor 1 ring now, but that ring might be worse later today

#

So again

#

What will a sim do in this situation

iron obsidian
#

it will tell you which one to take for the future

humble rover
#

Wat

tepid trellis
#

take the vers mast one if you only play sub, take the crit vers one if you also play assa

iron obsidian
#

theyre both vers mast

humble rover
#

Yeap

tepid trellis
#

tru its the neck from priory thats crit

#

take the one with the most mastery on then

#

for no perticular reason

humble rover

Hey guys !
Do someone can recommend me a good video guide to play sub this season ?

rest of the info is good

Aight, i will take a look at him. Thanks buddy, I really appreciate

Nvm bro is r1

rugged condor
maiden oar
#

yeah

rugged condor
#

Tell him i said hi :3 old guildie

maiden oar
#

ok i can

#

idk when he wakes up

#

but ill remember

rugged condor
#

Oh you used a lily on ur kill. Ig that's the new meta if the kill time is fast?

maiden oar
#

yeah

#

3 flag w forge prism is ideally
f1 - 0:00 w/ forge
f2 - 2:00 w/ forge
f3 - 3:30 w/ 18 stacker

#

but if u get 3:30 kt then lily is nice bc u get the 18 stacks still

#

idk how to sim top gear w specific exact killtime so i dunno what single on use is like

rugged condor
#

I had single on use and ppl would just use prism on cd pretty much

maiden oar
#

yea

#

im considering 1x for some bosses but idk

#

i need to learn how to sim better

fossil forge
#

Using the clanker to its max potentional

rugged condor
#

I just came back to raiding recently so im not terribly familiar with the new tech. You held finishers for 40s prior to your 2nd set of cds. Are the extra combo points that valuable. I thought the general advice was 20s prior if you had coup

maiden oar
#

there are alot of people more experienced and smarter than me who can just use raidbots to answer things i constantly wonder about

#

and im kinda jealous

#

bc im left to wonder and guess

#

i should lesrn

fossil forge
#

Blud held coup for 40 seconds ?

maiden oar
#

i dont think so

fossil forge
#

Coup + like 350 sht stacks

#

New meta

#

is there a cap to sht

maiden oar
#

14

#

i held for 20s

rugged condor
maiden oar
#

which is maybe 5s too long but

#

i didnt feel like gambling

fossil forge
#

20 is aight no

maiden oar
#

ppl say 10

#

but i feelycraft 15

#

idk why i did 20 i dont think thats good

#

but oh well worked out

rugged condor
#

I mean you did something right xd

maiden oar
#

theres some variance to this spec

rugged condor
#

Ya im not a fan of variance

fossil forge
#

there are lots of evil techniques

maiden oar
#

so its not like i did every decision perfect

#

im sure theres stuff i could improve on but sometimes u win big anyway

#

the vanish opener is for predisorient btw

limpid sage
maiden oar
#

dont copy that without it

#

oh ok

#

the ! command says 10

nvm im perfrct

it does?

coup 20 stop 10

#

i just stop 20

#

but i should bp or smth

limpid sage
#

ye I used to do that as well

#

bp and rupture I think

fossil forge
#

wym vanish opener

#

Did u cook some up

maiden oar
#

no i just did what ryldd in here said

#

strike evisc vanish strike fla

#

g

#

if u have predisorient

limpid sage
#

vanish opener is like 0.2% better iirc

#

with full prepull cheese

maiden oar
#

yea u need the cheese

fossil forge
#

U get snd insta + extra flag stacks

#

Grouch i was checking the annsie guy logs

limpid sage
#

I've started doing symbols pre-ss when I have prepull cheese

#

you get a lot of sht stacks

fossil forge
#

I think bro used cb sectech in the first dance on dimmy

#

Is this worth doing to do more add damage

maiden oar
#

i dont know

#

idk how sectech dmg falloff scales on 4 targets

#

and avg ff stacks / flag / danse / whatever amps on 2nd sectech

#

if i said something confident id be lying to u

fossil forge
#

Yep

maiden oar
#

yea no idea what the ev on that is

#

could be good could be bad but i think that guy is good so i trust him

fossil forge
#

There is a guy with the same name on the cord but im not sure If thats him

maiden oar
#

yea maybe but if he doesnt post here much im hesitant to bother him

fossil forge
#

You miss a 100 shots you dont take

#

@bleak wind brotherman broman

maiden oar
fossil forge
#

i just hope its actually him HAHA

rugged condor
#

Surely

fleet acorn
#

Isnt cb sectech only like 1% dmg difference when using in a macro instead of solo in Flag window on First Dance

#

Doesn’t rly make difference if u Play Rest fine still rocking 95+ Logs

tribal blade
#

thing is this tier is a lot of dmg amp fights

#

plus you're sending cds at pivotal moments

#

so the difference is prob bigger

#

like you can imagine having CB on cd going into a dmg amp window is a pretty substantial loss

bleak wind
fossil forge
#

I was wondering above why you cb stech in first dance

#

On dimmy

bleak wind
#

just feelycraft honestly, might not be actually better

fossil forge
#

I was thinking u just want to use cb more

#

aight broman ty for claryfying

real panther
#

does someone have an "already done" sim to compare all the embelish?

fossil forge
#

Its minimal dont think it matters

real panther
#

I know

fossil forge
#

Im running double lens

real panther
#

I've just run few of them. double lens stays top no matter what yes

#

I was wondering why some using ascendance but I think it's to double spec sin

#

Just nothing

quaint lodge
#

if it exists its in there

maiden oar
#

ive been doing just nothing for 20s

#

but bot command says -20s coup hold -10s do nothing (so i assume at -20s through -11s i should be bping or rupturing)

#

but i will continue doing nothing

#

we love backstab

#

and its feelycraft but more sht in flag = more fun

plush roost
#

And im the only one whi kniws how to play dh rn

tribal blade
#

dh funnel just too good right now

plush roost
#

Ye

tribal blade
#

i see good things in ara

plush roost
#

I mean sub is literally a worse fdk

#

Its unfort

tribal blade
#

yeah i feel that

#

sub actually feels like you int the dh lol

plush roost
#

Same niche, more boss dam more prio

tribal blade
#

my RL asked me today on dim if i could turn off my cleave

#

i was like NOPE

plush roost
#

Unlacky just buff strike and evis by 10% already smh

#

Why would u want cleave off

tribal blade
#

oh the ranged were being monkeys with killing the wrong add on platforms haha

#

and since push timings are wonky

#

if i land on plat 1 with flag on cd for like 15-20 secs

#

the tail end of cds carries over to the soaks

plush roost
#

Havent done dimmy for 5 weeks xd

tribal blade
#

and my cleave hits the wrong adds

plush roost
#

Timings are just omega cursed

tribal blade
#

dude it's so cursed right now lol

plush roost
#

Arent they

tribal blade
#

i don't have the best raid team and if dps is good flag is off by quite a bit for plat 1

#

i experimented with not sending 2nd cd set on P1 to have it up immediately for plat 1

#

but my raid team doesn't do enough dam for that to be good

#

if you have a raid of rank 1 parsers i think you could likely not send 2nd cd set

#

so my RL just asked our dh and spriest to stop doing damage halfway through P1

#

so we pushed right before the last knock

plush roost
#

It would literally be easier if people just didnt collect orbs

#

And just played normal

tribal blade
#

true yeah, i think some teams are doing that

#

we're doing that and skipping the cursed orb for plat 1

#

if we have 20/20 alive

#

oh we killed it today btw haha

fossil forge
#

Worse fdk without util

tribal blade
#

thank god

maiden oar
tribal blade
#

sub feels so good on soulbinder

maiden oar
#

its so funny

#

they hate it

#

they saw i wasnt sin this week and someone called me evil

#

maybe next week ill play sin

fossil forge
#

Dont do it grouch

#

Dont let them pad

tribal blade
#

haha it's a meme boss anyways

maiden oar
#

it is

fossil forge
#

be the evil rogue

tribal blade
#

i think the play is you have half the raid not do dmg 1 week and let everyone else parse

#

then swap it next week

maiden oar
tribal blade
#

this is a weird iteration of sub

#

where we're doing monster cleave but bad ST

fossil forge
#

Sub is peak atm

#

I wish blizzard didnt abandon the patch

#

we are not red class we cant do everything men

#

And just did some tuning

Just move a few knobs

this is all ive ever known

#

i prefer doing good boss dam if i have to pick

#

but subs fun so whatever

#

ill play to my guys strengths

i should just play sin but i hate the 4pc bug

@tribal blade did you stop at .3 or did you guys finish?

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

@tribal blade how many days of prog did you end up on in total?

tribal blade
#

not sure how many days

#

but i think it ended up being something like 330ish pulls

#

but a lot of those pulls are with not fully done turbo boost and raid buff

lilac stag
#

So likely 5 weeks ish

tribal blade
#

so you guys are gonna have a much easier time

#

because some of the big dmg events will be a lot easier to manage with turboboost ilvl

lilac stag
#

we shit the bed on NK

#

but too many swaps

#

Didn’t help at all

tribal blade
#

NK isn't a simple boss

#

dim the same way

lilac stag
#

nope but people just didn’t progress for extended periods of time

#

What was the spider boss with the raid split. We crushed that one.

#

apparently good dancers in groups.

#

Shit solo routines. Hahah

tribal blade
#

lol yeah NK is definitely a personal responsibility boss

lilac stag
#

I liked it overall. Would have enjoyed it more if I could turn off friendly visuals.

tribal blade
#

dim is interesting in the way where your raid's dmg is important

#

and where people put their dmg

lilac stag
#

Surely better in midnight. garf_sit

tribal blade
#

i just xfered over my rogue to the beta today

#

saw everything i had to set up, felt anxiety and logged out

#

i'll deal with it tomorrow

maiden oar
#

im waiting for sub changes before i mess w beta

#

any week now

tribal blade
#

i at the very minimum want to get a good UI going

maiden oar
#

yea i plan to do this before the years over

limpid sage
#

are you guys popping cds on pargoth

#

I'm not sure if I'm able to send both on pargoth and dimmy

lilac stag
#

@tribal blade did you pay for it or happen to get in?

maiden oar
#

and on one of our reclears i popped on pargoth and not artoshion and it felt fine

#

last reclear i popped on artoshion and it also felt fine

#

i think the way i decide as long as we are going to do the pargoth hold (assuming i can fly fast to pargoth platform / get autumn) is based on p1 push timing since we have buyers

#

if we push p1 fast enough to make it so my flag on artoshion would suck i will flag pargoth

limpid sage
maiden oar
#

but im confident in my dragonriding speed/autumn giver

limpid sage
#

we don't push p1 very fast

maiden oar
#

ah ok

#

thats probably fine then

limpid sage
#

but it seems like people send giga cds on pargoth and I'm first able to send cds on him at like 50%

maiden oar
#

ah

#

in that case ud hold for amp right

#

and just do dances on him

limpid sage
#

ya think so

tribal blade
#

paid for it with gold, not real money 😉

lilac stag
#

I see

maiden oar
#

yeah i paid w gold too

tribal blade
#

i now only have 7.5 mil gold

maiden oar
#

i got a boe

tribal blade
#

i'm a POOR

maiden oar
#

and i turned the boe into midnight beta

fossil forge
#

Lob me .5 for playtime rq

#

how much is it with gold?

maiden oar
#

it was 1.8m for me

#

but i paid tax out of pocket

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.

THE DILEMMA (for 8th week):

  • we dont reclear
  • got no araz trinket ever from vault even if we did
  • using mythic pacemaker+hc prism
  • having 1 dinar atm. (used the other for main dagger)
  • no mythic boots either..

I wanted the araz+prism combo for such a long time (especially for m+). but the mythic pacemaker siming better than any heroic combo.

Shall I use the dinar on:

  • mythic araz+hc prism
  • mythic pacemaker+mythic prism
  • go for the boots

?

what do you plan on doing with this gear

(it's probably just mythic prism)

hazy breach

Yeah if you dont have mythic prism its mythic prism in 99/100 cases

austere elm

#

If you're not progging 7 and 8, I wouldn't go for double on use

warm marlin
#

hope for araz on reclear in a while maybe but it's not that big

#

prism passive is fine

austere elm
#

yea, the sims are kinda suggesting the same. biggest upgrade is prism, then boots. but i wanted try out the trinket combo soo badly for m+..never really had the chance, since i got the mythic pacemaker like very early, which i was obviously happy about, but its kinda boring and the double on use better optimisation for keys, i assume. anyway, ty fellas!

warm marlin
#

could always just buy araz instead of boots, i just think boots are stronger for prog at this point and araz is mostly pad

#

especially on last 2

austere elm
#

true

#

i know eleem is a believer that double on use is bad in keys garf i dont push on rogue so cant comment too much

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.

vagrant fulcrum
#

then if for w/e reason you had to hold blades and you've got a situation with both araz off cd and prism with 16+ stacks then you need a separate prism bind to activate it before pressing blades macro

macro will always send araz if avaliable then prism on alternate uses assuming you've not held blades over 30s

#

Cant wait for midnight where if youre at a certain haste threshhold you can pixel perfect your gcds to squeeze in 1 extra gcd in dance

warm marlin
#

The robot is going to top gear everyone towards exactly the haste value that provides an extra gcd and we are going to spend the entire tier telling people they should probably get slightly more haste than their sim suggests to account for spellqueue errors

gotta have them play the reaction game before advising them on tresholds

what do you plan on using it for

eager latch
#

is one better than the other across different contexts?

#

like, is the gulf that wide?

warm marlin
#

lily can be good in raid sometimes, it should be universally not great in keys as a second on use. 13 ilvl is a lot though. if I had to guess heroic forge is probably better?

#

they're probably close

eager latch
#

idk, I still have a few weeks to decide what the last dinar should be

#

maybe I can just snipe a hero forge from raid or something

#

appreciate the insights

warm marlin
#

After the first few minutes of a key/raid, you're just alternating trinket usage, at which point forge's 2min primary boost is a lot stronger than lily's 90 second mastery boost. lily does have the passive agi though. if you're doing a key with a lot of consistent combat between your big goes M lily is probably better with the passive agi, if you're pulling big around 90s -> H forge probably better. a regular passive trinket would probably just be better than lily in the first scenario though.

eager latch
#

or, ideally, you're just alternating because forge will be down anyways?

@warm marlin are the timings for pacemaker fubar on Dimy? Just trying to avoid orbs if possible.

warm marlin
#

they were pretty good last i checked

warm marlin
#

it gets a little bit iffy if you are holding damage. you should get 3 procs in p1, proc right upon landing on artoshion/a little after, insta proc on pargoth. if you push pargoth fast enough/maybe hold gcd at the end a slight amount you should be able to avoid proccing it at the end of pargoth platform to have it up for the amp, but if you are holding this prob isn't possible. i havent tested it myself yet, but it is also possible it magically procs before the amp and griefs you (it can sometimes proc when nothing is happening, not entirely sure)

lilac stag
#

ok so antenna prob better than

#

we’re not holding

fury and the amp likely not that critical.

i dont even think i can safely have 18 prism stacks for amp

shrewd lantern

is heroic scream worse than myth other trinkets for them

Antenna sims slightly lower, but the overall always ends up better in practice. It’s not like prism heroic where you’re trying to line it up.

#

screams has variance iirc

lilac stag
#

It’s a heroic proc trinket that is rng

shrewd lantern
#

fury’s the only spec i see actively use it, even dh seemingly does less

since fury is so flat I think str at 730 > 719 proc

shrewd lantern
#

yeah most likely, i think i seen 90% use arcanocore myth

#

easy to get 730+decent proc

lilac stag
#

core is pretty much a given

#

It’s either mythic screams or antenna as alternate, but pacemaker is > antenna with 25% in sims at least

But if the timings are shit for pacemaker, it’s not worth

why does the wowhead rotation guide have the opener doing a 20s pre-pull symbols? is it to better align recharge cds later?

vale pine

it is explained in the guide

#

but

#

basically supercharger

#

the first 2 charged combo points don't reset

elder trout
#

ohh so you start with charged combos

vale pine
#

so you get 2 free supercharger charges if you use symbols pre pull

elder trout
#

ok i remember reading that, didnt realize it was involved

#

my b

vale pine
#

you can just use symbols once you get ressed after a whipe

#

it does not need to be 20 sec

elder trout
#

so just use it sometime before pull?

vale pine
#

because the combo points last forever

#

yes

#

its basically a pre pull optimization

#

!cheese

wicked joltBOT
#

Pre Pull Cheeses:
Recommended - Supercharge - Using Symbols of Death before pull gives you 2 supercharger charges, this is easy to perform and can be done without any loss given the infinite timer on supercharger.

  • Explanation: Only the first 2 stacks of Supercharger don't reset on a boss pull, and you can easily press symbols early enough to have full charges on pull.
    NOT Recommended - Disoriented Strikes - Using Secret Technique gives you disoriented strikes, you can start bosses with the benefits when using Secret before a wipe or on Trash carefully.
  • Explanation: Disoriented does not reset on boss pull, but this trick requires a lot of attention and can't be done consistently, so is not recommended.
    Damage Impact: Both Cheeses lead to a bit more than 1% damage gain in a 5 minute Patchwerk simulation.

Or whoever is trustworthy

void ocean
#

its rly weird to decide what to play on Dimmy, trying to figure out whether im more annoyed by assa burst setup + fatebound bug or sub gamba

fleet wharf
#

whats gamba about sub on dimmy?

void ocean
#

i mean general gamba

fleet wharf
#

like damage variance?

void ocean
#

yea, coup procs n shit, kinda gettin a bit tired after NK prog

fleet wharf
#

I think both are viable

#

i fucking hate the assa bugs though

void ocean
#

i mean it annoys me less than assa but judging by logs assa is better on dimmy on almost all percentiles

#

and ofc its easier to play 😄

fleet wharf
#

yea, it gets cucked less when your raid doesn't hold perfectly

#

also, would you be getting autumn? Like it's pretty hard to expect the team to hold on pargoth perfectly, so you're missing out a few gcd on dimmy amp as sub

void ocean
#

nope

#

i got it once on nk by mistake

#

was by far the best pull i had

fleet wharf
#

I just gave up on my 2nd flag on NK haha

#

but if you send the 18 stack prism on the platform, it wasn't that bad, but that was before turboboost

void ocean
#

naah, i just used cloak on platform 😄

fleet wharf
#

it prolly sucks now because I'd imagine the platform evaporates now

void ocean
#

still managed to fit the entire burst in amp phase

#

even tho like 5-10 sec late

fleet wharf
#

yea, that's the thing. you lose too much doing that

#

but simialr story with dimmy amp for whatever it's worth

void ocean
#

yea, still cant compare to fumble i did in p3 trying to hold for my dear life 😄

fleet wharf
#

well the nice thing about saladbar p3 as sub at least is when you don't have CDs up you can just take your hands off off your damage rotation, focus on not dying and then go back to doing dps without losing too much

void ocean
#

true

#

but when burst comes and overlaps with the lines

#

thats the fun part

fleet wharf
#

yea, you hold

void ocean
#

lost at least 1 global in that

fleet wharf
#

because you're not missing by holding 20 more sec

#

I only did my burst sequence when I knew there were no upcoming mechanics to fuck me

void ocean
#

in my mind i was like "good rogue would dps through this shit"

#

so i went for it 😄

fleet wharf
#

ehh i kind of see where you're coming from, but I'd argue you get to just hold as sub cuz you're not assa lmao

#

assa holding cds is grief, as sub, it's whatever imo

void ocean
#

tho after the lines u get starkillers so even that its not too safe, i tried to play it safe since it was prog, didnt want to risk to get clipped or smth

fleet wharf
#

starkillers are a lot less dangerous than the line overlaps though

#

there's only 3 things to dodge and less mental arithmatic required

void ocean
#

indeed tho they spawn sometimes in the way u gotta go around to dodge them

#

sometimes its fine and u get nice space to stand in undisturbed

fleet wharf
#

yea, but that's easier than trying to predict where all the line overlaps are going to be

void ocean
#

yea

fleet wharf
#

cuz if everyone does their drops perfectly, the pattern is good

#

but sometimes someone misplaces it or some shit

#

and it's hard to know

#

beforehand, at least taht was my exp

void ocean
#

i remember on the second set of stars i got one starkiller and the fckin ghost spawned exactly on the very edge of the star i was suppose to aim at 😄

#

squeezing in was an art

fleet wharf
#

I was kind of annoyed that you don't lead the starkillers at all. I expected some traveltime, but nope

  • 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.

cause i couldnt do jack shit to p1 living masses either as assa or sub

tepid trellis
#

Sub does good Living Mass dmg

#

Just time dances to Them

void ocean
#

but we have to hardswap to them?

#

like on pull i gotta pop flag on their asses

#

cause i tried cleaving off the boss and didnt do too much they die quickly

limpid sage
#

Because they will hog all add dmg

void ocean
#

yup, 2 of em

#

greedy basterds 😄

tepid trellis
rugged condor
#

They should die pretty fast

void ocean
#

yea, especially those on pull disappear before i even blink... i just tho i might be doing smth wrong

#

cause im like 200k dps on them

#

i did check some high parse logs and they r about the same

#

so i guess im just being dramatic 😛

rugged condor
#

Dh can also omega blast them on the opener

void ocean
#

yea, 2 ele 2 warlocks, dh

#

they r usually top

#

devo

rugged condor
#

Should have no worries with adds with that comp

fossil forge
#

Im throwing ss and evis usually too

#

The boss dies way too fast now anyways in p1

tepid trellis
#

well the sectech is the important bit

#

rest you can do w/e the fuck u want really

fossil forge
#

What would be the ideal burn damage

#

I didnt fit the cb stech this pull

#

we only been in p3 4 times though

rugged condor
#

Are you sure thats the destabilize duration. The total dmg is a bit high and the dps number is crazy low for a 15?s burn

#

I procced out of my mind and did like 650m total, 42.6m dps

#

If you send log i can take a look

fossil forge
#

Sent to dms broman

#

Not very good at reading logs

#

I am on the side with our elemental shaman, so I was wondering how exactly casting sectec on the masses works

#

Does it get krangled if the targeted add dies before the clones hit?

#

Or do they go through anyways and still hit the boss if the mass is dead?

tepid trellis
#

if you target the boss with sectech it wont hit the adds, if you target the adds with sectech it will hit both

#

thats about it

hollow spear
#

I get that

#

But sometimes I get off the initial sectec hit

#

but the add dies before the clones appear

tepid trellis
#

then it wont count

#

afaik

hollow spear
#

-.-

fossil forge
#

Report shamans

#

Broken!!

hollow spear
#

crazy work

tepid trellis
#

important to pre build to max cps

#

and insta sectech when they spawn

hollow spear
#

was wondering whether it was worth it to skip rupture

tepid trellis
#

i dont rupture on pull

fossil forge
#

Ever since i got crazy stech in first dance tech from grouch i manage to hit the adds with all casts

hollow spear
#

and go strike - flag - sectec

fossil forge
#

I rupture after cds too

tepid trellis
#

i just do flag-dance+stab->sectech

hollow spear
#

you skip the strike?

#

or how do you prebuild cp?

#

my opener was strike-flag-rupture-dance/sod/pot/-cb+sectec

#

too slow tho

#

adds peacing out thanks to ele

fossil forge
#

Its probably not worth cb first stech when the ads disappear

hollow spear
#

yeah it's not

#

but if I can get it out 2s sooner it would be

tepid trellis
hollow spear
#

dang

fossil forge
#

R1 log did cb stech first so i dont think it matters

tepid trellis
#

otherwise adds are dead before my esctech hits

#

R1 log accidentally cold blooded a shuriken toss

Annsie must have been so mad

#

Imagine a 9 minute fight

#

Where you fumbled your juicy sectec 3 seconds in

#

#

Still r1

hollow spear
#

Chapeau for still making r1

hollow spear
#

I would have missed my first shadowstep on knock after that

fossil forge
#

haha

hollow spear
#

Brainfry

hollow spear
fossil forge
#

Strike the add and that wont happen

#

Shroud prepull also nice u get extra ms when u arrive on platform

#

Speedyboy

hollow spear
#

That requires me striking the add, swapping to boss and then swapping back to add

#

You're overestimating my mental bandwidth

fossil forge
#

Strike the add while running and press tab when in boss range

hollow spear
fossil forge
#

Imma try skipping the strike though

#

Our ele will not like this tech

#

#

I am jealous of our other rogue no shamans on His side

#

I get autumn instead of him though

#

so i am winning

Anyone else enjoy delayed attacks on your big finisher?

dreamy badger
#

Its cool on sex tech, but ass on coup

warm marlin
limpid sage
#

even easier getting cb sectec in first dance

#

Anyone tried to sim: ss > flag > rupture > vanish > ss > cds + sectec?

#

The tradeoff being a premed for an extra second in first dance

warm marlin
#

it's probably fine ish

limpid sage
#

Tradeoff is vanish too ig

warm marlin
#

you lose a danse stack for the first sectec, you get trolled by the premed bug if you already stacked sht

hazy breach
#

Wasnt worthwhile last i checked

#

You lose a second of flag in dance later on as well
