thanks I found that Prayge

#

so are you telling me I've been playing sub wrong the whole time kekw

#

i've been using eviscerate at almost all target counts in m+

#

for prio damage

#

i only use BP when no prio mobs are left in the pack

vale pine
#

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).
vale pine
#

you will always use coup

#

you can continue using evis in aoe for prio damage

#

doing so trades off aoe for prio damage

#

you lose both in roughly equal parts

#

so e.g. roughly 5% aoe for 5% more st on 5 targets

cursive tundra
#

okay, thank you mohihug

vale pine
#

it rly depends on the key level you do tho

cursive tundra
#

i feel like in higher keys getting prio targets down fast is what gets keys timed

#

15-16 currently

vale pine
#

the diffrence usually does not matter, so playing it wrong is difficult

cursive tundra
#

that's a socket right?

sly shore
#

ye

hazy breach
#

Evis instead of bp is around 5% more prio damage at the cost of 5% overall

#

So not massively impactful overall

fleet acorn
#

whats like the reason when i copy a ert timer for announcment to put in my name there or not?

#

does it not work without name

#

?

latent finch
#

When you put your name in it will autofill it in all rows from the below. Thats all. Otherwise you have the timings of the spells but you will not get a popup sound if you use stuff like kaze timers

fleet acorn
#

i see so name is needed ty

astral axle
#

i got "no the dk needs it"

sullen hare
#

I've gotten to sit by and watch you guys talk about autumn like it's a thing that exists the whole expansion so I feel you

astral axle
#

i mean we finally got our salad ~~tossed ~~ kill last night and not only was it my worst pull it died as cooldowns came up so i guess not even autumn would save aware

alpine wraith
#

it would have helped if you are the only one getting autumn used on

#

as you get it 4 times

#

maybe 3 if kill is not super long

#

actually most of the time 3

Guys why does nelf sim higher than human? its the shadowmeld into stealth for "master of sublety" buff or something else?

hazy breach
#

Im fairly sure it doesnt, are you talking about MoP?

#

In that case i wouldnt recommend this discord as its focused on retail tww/midnight

#

do we have any info if aug works negatively with sub, I can't really prove it but from a month+ of playing with aug I feel like it just takes too much damage

alpine wraith
#

aug just does not do a lot dmg not because of sub tbh

#

but i dont remember if they ever fixed sec tech with it

hazy breach
#

I dont think it takes anything for sub specifically

warm marlin
bleak wind
#

I haven't seen a single top log where a sub is being auged

warm marlin
#

But sub is a vers spec so it’s naturally gonna benefit a bit less

bleak wind
#

feels like its taking more

#

can't really prove it

maiden oar
#

is scalecommander innocent

bleak wind
#

not even sure what you need to look at

maiden oar
#

or is that guy evil too

#

i assume theres no way its the hero talent too right

#

(idk how evoker works)

bleak wind
#

no idea what hero spec they play

warm marlin
#

I think most of the aug bugs are positive for the non aug as well right

hazy breach
#

What about other specs

#

Because from what i call tell there shouldnt be anything, unless the underlying calculations are incorrect

#

In which case it should affect other specs too

bleak wind
#

I might just be getting way too washed, but all my good logs recently are when the aug is benched

#

and it would be a crazy coinsidence

warm marlin
#

There’s def crazy variance this tier

hazy breach
#

Maybe they do the armor calculations incorrectly with find weakness or something idk shrugeg

bleak wind
#

I don't even know how to check if its correct or not

shrewd lantern
#

this tier feels logs are infinitely better

#

with a buyer

#

than without

maiden oar
shrewd lantern
#

at least this late

warm marlin
#

It’s all troll

shrewd lantern
#

Just crit every global of your sb windows

warm marlin
#

40s variance on artoshion push time yesterday 🙂 in 4 pulls

shrewd lantern
#

Also am i the only person who logic alpha sims a loss for

#

i swear

maiden oar
#

yea sometimes i feel like how well i personally play has nothing to do with the outocme

warm marlin
#

It’s mostly dimmy nexus tbf

maiden oar
#

and once i had the item it was good on droptimizer

#

i dont know why thats the csse

shrewd lantern
#

also @maiden oar theres a log in the top 5 iirc for nk that got no autumn and just ripped on cd

#

but he also did like 500m to reapers

shrewd lantern
maiden oar
#

but idk how much 500m to reapers is

#

is that good i never look @ that stuff

shrewd lantern
#

well the kill time is arguably not "good"

#

since his next flag should have came up

#

as boss died

maiden oar
#

i did not play well

#

and i went INSANE nonetheless

#

i think theres a slot machine mechanic for sure

maiden oar
maiden oar
#

tbh its fine if that happens though

shrewd lantern
#

look at his kill time and cd sends

#

Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:

/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
maiden oar
#

think its correct w no autumn

shrewd lantern
#

actually wait you had more

#

but idk

maiden oar
#

slow kt if its most recent onr

shrewd lantern
#

sending on cd would be good

#

if his kt was like 15-20s longer

maiden oar
shrewd lantern
#

but you miss having cds for like the first 10s of dragon burn

#

how long is the dragon burn btw

maiden oar
#

to answer ur earlier question

#

idk but if he doesnt die u can do 3 dances still

#

depends on if u hit the tiny man or the dragon during p2

shrewd lantern
#

yeah you mean skip the 1:30 set and wait for platform

maiden oar
#

no

#

i mean just auto him for the first part of the amp until flags back

#

or rupture vanish strike flag bp

shrewd lantern
#

oh you meant just afking for the early part yeah

alpine wraith
#

you can dance 4 times on dragon

shrewd lantern
#

we pushed dimmy so fast once we didnt even have gate cd

#

for artosh's platform

alpine wraith
#

1 before flag then 2 on flag and then once again in nk

#

but dimmy is a bit diff

shrewd lantern
#

i played the p3 burn wrong this week

#

didnt get my second sectec off

#

bleh

#

feels i can only send one dance on pargoth safely then go into prep mode for the burn

maiden oar
#

are u waiting for widns to go to p3

shrewd lantern
#

how many supercharged spenders can you hold btw?

maiden oar
#

theoretically a ton but i wouldnt do more than 2

shrewd lantern
#

we gate to dodge 2nd meteor on pargoth's

maiden oar
#

unless ur insane holding

#

oh ok

#

i go like

warm marlin
maiden oar
#

land -> bs spam him and make sure i have coup if i dont -> cloak dance cb sectech coup the adds -> dance again for 2nd add set

shrewd lantern
#

we defo got some padbois

#

considering titan was last mob alive on it

maiden oar
#

if i pushed artoshion so fast

#

then i can land and immediately dance

#

then prep for add dance

#

but usually im not full of charges

#

so it depends

shrewd lantern
#

yeah im not sure if waiting for adds to spawn to send cb sectec in dance on pargoth's

maiden oar
#

if ur not waiting for winds honestly just send 2nd dance earlier probably

shrewd lantern
#

is the best call

#

as opposed to secreting pargoth solo

maiden oar
#

but for first conq cross absolutely

warm marlin
#

This week I had 2 fdks send pot and 18 stack prism

#

Ethical play for certain

maiden oar
#

so evil

shrewd lantern
#

on platform?

warm marlin
#

Yes

shrewd lantern
#

i did that once on nk in prog

#

it was funny

#

i also didnt have forge yet so i also had

warm marlin
#

The reapers died at 3:08

shrewd lantern
#

antenna agi

warm marlin
#

🙂

shrewd lantern
#

i feel the biggest offender padder spec

#

is ret

#

@maiden oar ngl our push is way too fast now i dont think i can even cd a second time on p1 anymore

maiden oar
#

get buyers

#

more buyer more stronger

shrewd lantern
#

and i think i gotta hold my prism

#

i tried sending on p1 and i only had 14 stacks

#

going into platform 3 burn

#

😭

maiden oar
shrewd lantern
#

yeah the amount of downtime on this boss

#

pranks you into thinking you'll have prism stacks back

maiden oar
#

i think

#

if they nerf p1 health even more

shrewd lantern
#

💀

#

AINT NO WAY THEY NERF THIS MF MORE

warm marlin
#

They are not tuning shit

maiden oar
#

then SURELY u can just flag 1 p1 flag 2 p2.1

warm marlin
#

They’re gone

maiden oar
#

flag 3 p3

#

slammer done wahoo easy

#

yeah...

shrewd lantern
#

yeah blizz add more housing limits

#

i need another cuck chair

maiden oar
#

why did they nerf dimmy hp btw that was so evil

#

and araz orb hp

shrewd lantern
#

idk if they wanted to nerf p1

#

they should have nerfed living mass hp

#

never heard a guild struggle on the hp of the boss

warm marlin
#

There are prob more devs working on whatever is after tlt than tww

maiden oar
#

hehe

shrewd lantern
#

i cant wait for another assa season

maiden oar
#

tbh with midnight assa i dont care as much

#

i just dont wanna play assa right now because of the 4pc bug and because the st rotation is insane boring

shrewd lantern
#

wdym it hasnt changed

#

for the last

#

god knows how long

maiden oar
#

i dunno

#

my first season raiding in this game was lou

#

i have 0 historical context

#

but rn i think assa st is very boring so i dont like it BUT in midnight it looks like itll be more interesting so its ok

shrewd lantern
#

im just logging in fo farm now

#

and a little bit of pvp for mogs

maiden oar
#

me too but i like farm bc i like sub rogue

shrewd lantern
maiden oar
#

the pvp tier sets for rogue this season are nice

#

but ive nbever pvped in my life so idk if its worth the attempt

shrewd lantern
#

i killed some evoker from 80% in 2 gcds because i got 4 tail coin flips

maiden oar
#

and i wear clown anyway

shrewd lantern
#

that hit for over 1.5m per

maiden oar
shrewd lantern
#

well the forced flips from dm

shrewd lantern
#

maybe tabard

maiden oar
#

hehe

#

i think the white color tier set is pretty neat

shrewd lantern
#

maybe for the reddish mfo weapons

#

of elite

maiden oar
#

and the other one is too but that one is too hard if ive never pvped

shrewd lantern
#

s2 elite weapons were so butt

#

they picked purple colors of the lou weapons

#

💀

#

s1 was white but barely different from the black/grey of mythic of s1

maiden oar
#

evil guys

shrewd lantern
#

its just alot of the playerbase doesnt understand how rogue works

#

they dont understand the coinflips are more dangerous than deathmark kekw

maiden oar
#

i wouldnt have guessed that either

shrewd lantern
#

applies everywhere, people kind of dont know how rogue works

#

besides feint and cloak are goodge buttons

#

just mouseover

#

Mouseover step, and if no valid mouseover steps to current target

jade oasis
#

wait why is sub going vers now

plush roost
#

Subs gone versa forever

#

Crit was really good when we had seal fate but that was df s2

mystic ether
#

A second 730 dagger is useless because of the ascendance embellishment, right?

shrewd lantern
#

alot of people opt for double duskthread or double lens by now

mystic ether
#

Is that purely for ST or does it work in dungeons too ?

shrewd lantern
#

threads is technically better for aoe

#

pretty sure the difference is minor either way

#

lens benefits from the fact you can put it on any crafted item too

#

the tldr is the difference is incredibly insignificant

jade oasis
maiden oar
#

but some of that is probably bc i have never seen a single one of the good m+ rings in my vault so having my crafted slots be ring + neck is nice

#

Is there a specific reason some top logs use their trinkets like this in p3 dimensius? Is it just to get max trinket usage within p3? Or something more specific?

warm marlin
#

you only get 2 casts of blades anyway, better to use prism again on the second one and hold blades a little since a 10 stack prism > forge, if you forge the dance there you still have pot/lust running etc

jade oasis
#

is there any target count where it’s more worth to cast bp over just eviscerating prio targets?

hazy breach
#

Read the message right above yours

jade oasis
#

i’m confused

hazy breach
#

At 4 targets BP does more damage overall than eviscerate

plain void
#

just depends on if the elite is living longer than the rest of the mobs

hazy breach
#

Fwiw theres not a huge difference in prio between eviscerating and BPing

#

Its like 5% more prio at the cost of 5% overall

#

Obviously could still be worthwhile, but not as often as people might expect

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.

what poisions do iuse in m+?

narrow night
vale pine
#

you might switch to wound poison temporarely for certain dungeon passages, like the first part of gambit

#

for utility poisons, both atrophic and number are fine

#

evry high keys, you likely want to use atrophic because damage numbers get absurd

#

for your 10-15 key, numbing might actually be slightly better

#

you can't go wrong, so don't overthink it

You probably should have an amp for the sundara. It’s about equal loudness to a sennheiser hd600 at the same volume setting

if u dont have autumn yea its fine

#

the only way to line it up with the beginning of kings hunger without autumn is to hold ur 2nd set of cds until platforms

u can

nah i meant like the season itself lol

!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 bad would it be trying sub with dagger mainhand and sword offhand incase i dont like it more than outlaw?

#

still got barely any gear and trying to see which of the specs i like the most and what would be most versatile for dungeons / delves / raids

#

Outlaw seems kinda rough to play and seems to do terribly in raids

wicked joltBOT
#

Shadow Techniques is not normalized and this makes a slow weapon (axe/sword/mace/fist) in offhand significantly weaker and almost never worth equiping.

I'm not sure on how to use cloak in dimi p3 aside from ignoring lines. Is there a better use for it? like can I ignore the 4th inverse gravity and pull to have more uptime with cloak?

warm marlin
#

i was just saving it in case i messed up or one of the inverse people messed up

#

it will immune inverse gravity if you're outside the circle

shrewd lantern
warm marlin
#

no

vale pine
#

you still need to keep your distance ^^

shrewd lantern
#

does it immune the tank pull at least

distant sage
#

how undertuned is ds on the live patch compared to trickster

chrome palm
#

ds probably gets beat by tanks

#

trickster is already some of the worst st in the game, ds is going to be worse

#

and aoe which is what trickster is good at, is a sore spot for ds

distant sage
#

like if it isnt too too garbadge i would be down limit testing it in a +17

shrewd lantern
#

Well the entire reason sub is ok rn

#

is held up by trickster

#

ds gotta be one of the most boring hero trees of all time

distant sage
#

damn

#

thats too tuff ngl

chrome palm
#

yeah its abandonware

shrewd lantern
#

its probably worse than outlaw

#

grim

distant sage
#

is it at least good in pvp

#

didnt play sub at at all in pvp

chrome palm
#

last i checked outlaw and assa are better but im not a pvper

distant sage
#

ye same only did assa pvp for the elite mog

shrewd lantern
#

Pretty sure its worse

#

especially since assa can rando clap people with coinflips

shrewd lantern
#

I think my sub dslice was 10.5

distant sage
#

it didnt have to go this hard ngl

shrewd lantern
#

last i checked

#

or 10 something idr

distant sage
#

man this is just too grim

shrewd lantern
#

why would you want to play ds

#

horrid tree

#

no fazed parry buff

distant sage
#

mental prep for midnight

shrewd lantern
#

Its basically a different class

distant sage
#

ye i know but it kinda plays the same

#

no flag and dance and symbols are just one button

shrewd lantern
#

I mean ds itself doesnt change playstyle much

#

you finish at max every 4th always

#

ig

distant sage
#

im praying sims find out some tech for sub

#

to make it somewhat stimulating to play

shrewd lantern
#

im fully expecting to be in assa jail

#

the first tier

distant sage
#

if not preparation outlaw it is

shrewd lantern
#

unless sub gets wild tuning

distant sage
#

ill make it stimulating myself

chrome palm
shrewd lantern
#

Because assa baseline is the most complete spec

#

imo

chrome palm
#

most bosses in the raid require you to leave the boss to hit adds

shrewd lantern
#

without tiersets etc

#

unless hardswaps to adds are required

#

which feels like the only downside to assa

chrome palm
#

its required on many fights

distant sage
#

i think there isnt any pure st boss

shrewd lantern
#

yeah depends how long the mobs live

#

if its a rik/loom situation doesnt count

chrome palm
#

that depends on when youre progging it

shrewd lantern
#

idk im jaded and feel blizz just gives assa a perma reacharound

#

most seasons

#

XD

chrome palm
#

if you progged as assa early, assa was useless on rik

#

and doing barrel damage was like the one thing sub was good at in that raid

shrewd lantern
#

Yeah you could only spatter barrels near you

#

so depended how much comp needed barrel damage

chrome palm
#

its the same every tier, assa is more competitve when adds dont live

shrewd lantern
#

I guess sub was decent at oab assistants?

chrome palm
#

it was better than assa

shrewd lantern
#

its really a question of if a hardswap is required

#

or if spatter carries

#

imo

chrome palm
#

but unless assa is VERY overtuned you wont see it until like half way through the raid

#

unless adds are just a non issue but they seem like the main mechanic of most fights

shrewd lantern
#

spatter is just a wildly powerful single point i feel

distant sage
#

tbh i didnt really raid last season i started playing in it but this season it felt nice to prog as assa or sub(we dont talk about outlaw)

shrewd lantern
#

I mean sub was very good early prog for last 2

#

became less of a thing once we stacked aura buffs and more ilvl

chrome palm
#

it was good on early prog for soulbinder and araz as well

cursive tundra
#

quick question about the coup the grace optimization...
let's say I go into a pack with Coup de Grace ready, with trinket + flag + sb also all ready. in what order do I press buttons as to not "eat" unseen blade stacks/procs?

do I just follow the normal Flag + Rupture + SD + Backstab + SB into rotation? doesn't feel quite right

also, who are some good sub streamers who I could watch on twitch or youtube to analyze some pulls and learn stuff?

shrewd lantern
#

Yeah araz early prog

#

vs now

#

holy misery

#

i havent done araz in like 2 months

#

i suspect gonna have a shit time as sub this late

#

I might have gotten closer to ryldd if we didnt get a second intermission

#

on the good farm week

distant sage
#

in our two measly kills on araz i got the add spawn in 2 of my cds so that felt disgusting

shrewd lantern
#

Yeah early prog you got it on most sets

#

was kind of peak

chrome palm

#

so you can strike and spread ruptures and backstab in dance before casting secret technique

shrewd lantern
#

I didnt have double on use though so idk how much better that was

#

did prism on burn only

cursive tundra
#

yeah so i just go into normal "opener" and then shuriken between the two coups from 4pc

shrewd lantern
#

get a disorient before pull

#

if you really want to minmax

cursive tundra
#

huhh? kekw

hazy breach
#

Press tornado and use sectech > coup > coup Surebud

#

Unpopular take

shrewd lantern
#

Cast sectec before a wipe

#

dont do anything else

#

You keep the 2 disorienting stacks through death

cursive tundra
#

uh yeah so this is about m+ if it wasn't clear kekw

shrewd lantern
#

oh idk if it works in minigame

#

4 coups in your tfd dance is so juice

distant sage
#

how far were you guys pushing ur m+ keys this season

shrewd lantern
#

whatever gives highest vault because its a waste of time if not going for title

cursive tundra
#

i just started playing sub like 3 weeks ago

#

currently at resi 15

cursive tundra
shrewd lantern
#

If they gave actual rewards for doing keys past 3k i might

#

its basically useless if not going for title though

dry plank
#

Playing the game is useless. Copium. That’s why queue is so dead I guess

shrewd lantern
#

I mean at high range why would you ever pug

#

thats where you network and make friends

dry plank
#

What is high range? What network? It is very miserable to be not meta class. No one wants to play with you. People around you want rio and do not apply into easy keys

shrewd lantern
#

20/21s

#

title range

#

stop pugging then

#

playing a multiplayer to be antisocial is a choice

#

title needs to stop being account wide

distant sage
#

after 17 its really hard finding keys

#

even if you are a meta spec

#

at this point of the season

dry plank
#

Why should i stop? I like playing. You just don’t know what you are talking about

shrewd lantern
#

Im talking finding people to make a group with not treating the game like a solo queue experience

#

I think its a societal problem where people think its ok to just queue up for something and never talk to other people

distant sage
#

ye but there is something special pugging with randoms and everyone doing what they are supposed to do

shrewd lantern
#

is there though

#

I just am not disappointed

distant sage
#

pug psf 17 in time trust me

shrewd lantern
#

its always felt more rewarding pushing a goal with people you genuinely like imo

distant sage
#

when ppl get in the flow it really is special

#

thats true as well

#

but its a big investment for wow

shrewd lantern
#

I have a long list of games i’d rather play if i was going for an individualistic goal

#

Wow was really never meant to be a solo experience and psf has always been a shit dungeon

#

why people voted it back is beyond braindead

distant sage
#

ye but im at the position where im the only one in the guild pushing these type of keys

#

so i cant turn to my guild for a group my irls play until 3.2k at max a can only find ppl while pugging

shrewd lantern
#

At that point you have to start meeting people outside of guildies tbh

#

idk crazy to me m+ has even less reward brackets than pvp

distant sage
#

and navigating when we can all play is really a clusterfuck

distant sage
shrewd lantern
#

I dont even understand why title is acc wide

#

pvp r1 is still singular character tied

distant sage
#

is CE acc wide

shrewd lantern
#

Yeah but CE is just an fos

distant sage
#

maybe cuz of gearing req

#

gearing for pvp is far easier than for M+ or Raid

shrewd lantern
#

wasnt always

#

bfa you had to do m+ vault

#

XD

distant sage
#

didnt play back than i didnt know about that

#

lol wtf

shrewd lantern
#

Idk gearing isnt hard

distant sage
#

trust most players are boosted by gear

#

i had a FDK die 7 times to magic damage in psf

shrewd lantern
#

Some players delude themselves into thinking they’re only stopped by gear from doing the keys people who win tgp have

#

disregarding the skill canyon

distant sage
#

my biggest problem with m+ is the burnout

shrewd lantern
#

ill respect someone in title range on feral infinitely more than a dk

#

its why i hate title being acc wide

shrewd lantern
#

both get the same title

#

at the end

distant sage
#

it would be cool to have class titles

shrewd lantern
#

like thats the thing i can see a pvp title and respect it more when they play something

#

that was genuinely hard to reach that from that season

distant sage
#

in 7 out of 8 +17 ive had a bm hunter

#

thats pretty wild ngl

shrewd lantern
#

0 downside to playing fotm

distant sage
#

but we will always have those

#

specs that are just better tuned than others

shrewd lantern

class/spec locked titles would partly prevent it idk

Hello, I’m new to Sub Rogue.
The part I struggle with the most is getting back to 2 stacks of Dance and 3 stacks of Symbols for my Shadowblades, outside of the first pack.
Everything feels so desynced that I end up trying to hold cooldowns, and I think that actually makes things worse.
Could you point me toward a good resource to learn this properly?

vale pine
#

the best way to think of it is in this rythm

hazy breach
#

You do not need 3 stacks of symbols, only 2

vale pine
#

cooldowns usually follow the pattern:

  • Dance Dance (during blades/flagellation), Dance, Dance
  • Dance Dance (during blades/flagellation), Dance
    This repeats after.
    Every Dance is with one Secret technique and one symbols of death in the sequence.
#

If you want a mark to aim for before your major cooldowns come off cd.

  • You want to have ONE stack of Shadow Dance and 30 seconds or less remaining on the second charge
  • You want to have close to 2 stacks of Symbols of Death.

For you title gamers, do any of you purely pug? I can’t remember who said it, but there does seem to be a wall of about 2 below max keys for pure pugging.

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.

!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.

!design

wicked joltBOT
#

Subtlety is designed to be a spec with highs and lows. During your cooldowns you do immense burst and have plenty of buttons to spam but conversely outside of symbols and dance you do not do any damage whatsoever. This means that having some periods of "afk" downtime where you do not press a button because you're out of energy is the intended way the spec plays. As long as its not happening inside your cooldowns (flag/blades/dance/symbols) its not a problem at all, and especially nothing that having more haste would "fix".

Do you backstab after every shadow dance / symbols combo?

#

I have been that in the logs

alpine wraith
#

you can do it once to get a stack of DM

#

you dont always do it but it is a thing to think about

twin quartz
#

Yeah plus it’s a super efficient use of premeditation

pallid jackal
#

What is like the best dps wise?

tidal marsh
#

Backstabbing there is a DPS loss, the top logs just do it 'cause uhhhh they want the challenge of parsing while playing suboptimally

warm marlin
vale pine
#

less than 1%

#

somewhere around 0.5-0.7% iirc

#

so, i would not worry too much

hollow spear
#

Doing that might get you from a 92 parse to a 93 parse if you're lucky. It won't turn a 54 into a 99 tho 😄

doing so turns a 92 parse into a 92 parse

is the coup grace tracker important so u dont interrupt it or smt``?

chrome palm
#

no, it cant be interrupted because its not a channel, it just has 0.2s longer gcd

normal sundial
#

ah okey ty

chrome palm
#

the hits are delayed though, so if youre casting it at the last gcd of dance 1 in blades, make sure you hit dance again before the last hit

#

(the last hit is also the strongest hit)

normal sundial
#

fair enough. does it ever refund CP or is that the other proc

chrome palm
#

its a (bug?), any of the hits can refund with shadowcraft if you hit 7 shadow techniques between casting it and last hit

normal sundial
#

ahh that makes sense ty

chrome palm
#

i like to spam evis really fast and a builder slightly less fast if i am expecting a refund

#

idk if its foolproof but i imagine it spell queues the builder and overrides it with a finisher if you get the refund, could be wrong but its worked for me so far

but who knows

sub in prepatch is just a far worse spec than on live

Idk what we are gonna do with haste, sure you get longer dance

But the extra sht you generate aint gonna do shit

i mean shadow techniques dont really matter without the apex

i wonder what energy is like at zero haste in prepatch

hazy breach
#

I mean its fine on live, so why wouldnt it be in prepatch

#

Attack speed going up

chrome palm
#

no instantaneous energy from symbols, increased builder cost

#

you can already run out of energy in dance in m+

hazy breach
#

Well MoS pretty much counteracts the symbols energy

yeah i think you still will need to pool 1-2s maybe

Shadow Techniques is not normalized and this makes a slow weapon (axe/sword/mace/fist) in offhand significantly weaker and almost never worth equiping.

You want to use a dagger in both hands.

basically, a green dagger from the auction house is better than any 1h weapon

#

How often are you pressing unyielding netherprism in a fight?

#

do you just macro it with shadow blades?

wet echo
#

!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.
pallid jackal
#

And do you use unyielding netherprism on the platform on nexus king even though shadow blades might not be up?

chrome palm
#

Only use with shadow blades or if boss is about to die

fallow nimbus
#

Always use trinkets with cds. An 18 stack prism for a dmg amp is big

chrome palm
#

Takes 180s to fully stack so you can hold that amount depending on where you would do the most damage or be the most useful

#

You can fully stack it to 18 for the platform on nexus king but you’re losing 18 stacks on the boss to do this

pallid jackal
#

how long does it take to typically stack it?

#

yeah true, but in case cds don't align with shadow blades and you want to maximize add damage

warm marlin
#

if its your only trinket on NK I would probably hold it for the amp

#

you can send at 90s and 4:30 on mythic

double on use generally refers to prism+forge exclusively, with some niche timers like 3:30 kill times maybe favoring lily to lily lily prism your cd sets

it also values crit very highly

also im pretty sure if you were to not lust on pull

i was just more curious why prism sims so piss for their burst spec

tepid trellis
#

ive done 0 research into how to actually play havoc

#

i just press buttons and it shows xD

shrewd lantern
#

allegedly according to logs

#

but i can play fs fine

vale pine
tepid trellis
#

dont really care tbh

#

im doing it cuz i have to

#

not because i want to

sour horizon
#

I like DH :3

#

it gets my need to just spam abilites sated

They likely need the DH raid buff

#

so rogue is not an option

shrewd lantern
#

yeah i assumed their dh would play one for splits

#

rogue is likely the only class you dont need on farm

#

ig hunter but mechanic bitch

warm marlin
#

also easy to drop pala

#

unless ppal doing specific mechanics like mugzee

shrewd lantern
#

nah you need spell bop for that one healer who refuses to move

warm marlin
#

Hunter mark getting biggie buff in midnight too

shrewd lantern
#

its kind of funny how we went from years of aura mastery being mandatory in prog

#

to "its not bad"

#

i definitely heard healers complain alot about how 2 healer slots on prog were always hpal/priest

#

then adjust rest of healing comp on tuning

shrewd lantern
#

then get bored and become bomb boy entire expac

#

Will it still be 2 dances and 2 sectech during blades in midnight given the CD and haste changes?

#

question, for high-ish keys, do you prefer netherprism + antenna/pacemaker or netherprism + araz?

#

i feel so limited let's say with netherprism + passive when all the big baller bloodlust pulls are usually the first pack

#

and I have nothing for it

#

I killed araz on myth recently and I still have 1 more dinar to spend, I could pick that up

#

currently I have
717 netherprism with no realistic chance of killing fracti on myth
730 antenna
730 pacemaker

#

Fractilus is pretty puggable rn.
I play only in dawnbreaker prism plus araz in all other keys i play with antenna.
But im only doing 19/20s

tidal marsh
#

Yeah don't listen to him, he's only doing 19/20s

#

Only listen to resi 21 sub rogues

#

and nobody else

vale pine
#

fractilus is very easy, the main problem would be to get to him in pugs

spiral sierra
#

this might be a general rogue question but ill post it here, if i run out of energy, (mainly as sub rogue) do i just sit on my hands for like 1-3 seconds or do i keep pounding my face on the keyboard? (comeing back to rogue after a good 2-4 months)

uneven scarab
#

its different for all specs tbh, sub you can kinda just keep slamming for the most part, because when we need energy we have an overflow of it

spiral sierra
#

awsome, ty

Prism is insane for keys

chrome palm
#

You could use forge in dawnbreaker, but in all keys I would use antenna

shrewd lantern
#

Honestly hc to myth prism is a larger gain than debating myth antenna or forge for the second slot

cursive tundra
#

really?

#

fract is a really easy boss

#

it's not about that, it's my alt and we are not going to reclear for the rest of the season cause we are still progging

#

i might just buy a fracti dinar boost then

#

will have to sim

shrewd lantern
#

dont people pug 5/8 atp

latent finch
#

They do

frigid depot
#

So what stats are sub potentially looking for next season?

tidal marsh
#

Definitely agi

#

Definitely some crit, mastery and versatility

#

Probably some haste too

vale pine
#

if its for pre patch, likely similar to what we have now

#

if its for midnight, make sure to book the next free slot from your fortune teller of choice

#

Mfw the one resi 21 sub is a chinese buyer oof

chrome palm
#

Is it really lol

#

I guess any non meta spec is doomed to being dominated by buyers

#

It wouldn’t be the first time the rank 1 for sub was a buyer

latent finch
#

Wasnt there also some drama with him in here?

chrome palm
#

He was banned a while back but he lurks on his alt still

left ledge
#

He’s like black sperm from one punch man

#

Just keeps multiplying his accounts

alpine wraith
#

well he did have an argument with zac

#

and it did not go well

#

but i think the ban was after some other things

#

we will never know what was his endgame

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

yea now i member

#

i guess if you have those opinions they can stay in your head instead of public places

wild hornet
#

Mentioning bannable opinions

#

For anyone that has fiddled with sub in the beta - does the difference in how sub works with the CDs and the lack of flag/symbol hurt sub a lot, does the new gameplay feel like shit?

hazy breach
#

#midnight-subtlety But it definitely doesnt feel like shit, it plays roughly the same except you're not thinking about "can i send this dance or will it grief my blades?"

#

Peaking

alpine wraith
#

it will feel interesting for sure

#

maybe we beat the 3 messages per hour

#

If they fix all the ancient art bugs and we arent losing like 30% energy and cp gen

#

Could be cooool
