this sentence encapsulates so well the availability blizz was going after

lilac stag
#

little did I know I'd be able to use my BA in Art & Design for UI design to fix blizzards shit

void ocean
#

well bothsentences

jolly sleet
#

i'm using a forked NDUi (just for the skinning tbh) along with :

  • MSUF for player & target
  • Centered CDM
  • Sensei's resource bars

That's all for combat addons, but If I can replace Centered CDM & Sensei's by arc imma test it !

lilac stag
#

you need Sensei

jolly sleet
#

ok

lilac stag
#

arc is currently only cdm

jolly sleet
#

but if it has bar skinning that's neat, I havent seen that anywhere else

lilac stag
jolly sleet

#

anyone figure out how to make coup glow on 4 stacks with arc ui? is it possible?

tidal marsh
#

"why's his auto-attack damage so high compared to me"

#

"speed gem"

keen dome
#

I got to the boss two steps before you. That's an auto-attack. I'm winning.

steel horizon
#

yeah but only on 4 stacks. when coup is ready

#

so far i can only make it glow whenever the aura is active which is kind of pointless

lilac stag
#

yeah that’s a blizzard thing afaik

#

Somehow elv was able to pull the VE racial

steel horizon
#

i figured. other than that though arc has been good. thanks for recmmending that yesterday

lilac stag
#

this is the nice part

#

raw dog no addons, 0% usage

silver lining to the addon purge. lmao

arc maybe hits 4% with everything going

swift tinsel
#

holy shit lmao

keen dome
#

I will never uninstall this addon.

swift tinsel
#

I'm at like 25mb total

keen dome
#

Anyway I need more RAM.

bleak night
lilac stag
#

that'll be $4500

keen dome
#

(The peak CPU is when I refreshed ATT's haha)

swift tinsel
#

I have my menu set to hide using Tartan's so I can't ss without redoing it and I cba lol

keen dome
#

You can check in the addon menu itself

swift tinsel
#

ye it just doesn't show the per-addon breakdown

keen dome
#

Ah, fair

swift tinsel
#

whoa arcui pushed an update and now my forge and prism are just standalone

keen dome
#

Nice

swift tinsel
#

also all the borders got weird

keen dome
#

High5 best rogue set

swift tinsel
bleak night
#

im giving arcui some time to cook before i swap to it

#

because of stuff like that

#

lmao

#

Feature I want for the CDM: Trinket slots that let you put items into them to track, and are on a different positioning (like essential / utility, etc)

swift tinsel

it matches the base kingslayers hidden skin perfectly

#

Purple 4 life (until the next season 'cos I really like the new rogue tier)

swift tinsel
#

if this came in purple I'd rock it so hard

keen dome
#

Hopefully we get recolours

swift tinsel
#

or the Bloodknight dignitary's trappings

keen dome
#

The conq pvp set is purple in S1

#

I really like it

#

"I'm batman"

lilac stag
keen dome
#

Purple teeeeam

lilac stag
#

well 2 hours of testing Elv to see it's still shit was time well spent

swift tinsel
#

I need to make an updated purple set for midnight

swift tinsel
#

For some reason it doesn’t show in my appearance tab

keen dome
#

Yeah, S1 Elite

swift tinsel
#

Ah damn

#

Rip

keen dome
#

You better believe I got the purple ethereal set haha

#

Ain't no chance I'm missing it. (same reasonI got the S2 warrior set)

swift tinsel
#

I just cannot force myself to enjoy pvp enough to get elite sets

#

If it’s not available for marks of honor I don’t get it lol

keen dome
#

Yeee

#

THankfully Elite really isn't hard in Blitz late seaosn when rating inflation is huge but it's still PvP

swift tinsel
#

The most pvp I’ve done since like cataclysm or so is Comp Stomp dracthyr_kek

#

Besides farming Epic bg’s for honor kills for hidden appearances

fallow nimbus
swift tinsel
lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

It was also acting weird with trickster and would bug out and flicker a bunch every time I got an escalating blade stack

keen dome
#

So agreed. I like the poofy arms though haha

swift tinsel
#

I just don’t really vibe with the jester theme so it’s not for me

lilac stag
#

I need to make a gunslinger mog

fallow nimbus
#

Ngl when blizz adds more things to cdm like trinkets, items and allows skins then we would have a good system. When addons can do it why not the base one?

swift tinsel
#

One of the tan trench coats works well for a gunslinger mog

#

Wish there was a legitimate cowboy hat that isnt just a weak derivation

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

The Nathria one?

#

Or what one do you mean

lilac stag
#

yeah the pvp variant

swift tinsel
#

Ohhh

#

Yeah I think I tried using that one but the colors were a bit off from what I had to work with

#

Actually think I still have that mog saved

lilac stag
#

I’ll try to get something fallout ghoul going

#

Not sure it’s possible

swift tinsel
#

What the s2 mog could have been

#

Instead of pirate

lilac stag
#

yup

tulip light
#

hello friends - does the darkest night evis interact with supercharged compo points? do we want to tie them together whenever possible?

craggy star
#

Hello, quick question I am new to rogue. I am looking at the opener in the wowhead guide and was curious What the point of the Eviscerate before going into your first shadow dance/ secret window is for?

swift tinsel
#

Could change later

ye i contacted support and they said download the client just taking a shot in the dark :b

wheat cloak
#

are you supposed to not be able to consume deathstalkers mark stacks if you have a darkest night up?

vale pine
#

you ignore mark with multiple targets

#

or wdym?

swift tinsel
#

can't reduce mark when dn is up

wheat cloak
#

as in if you black powder when you have darkest night up, it wont consume a stack

vale pine
#

^ what haptic mentioned

wheat cloak
#

ahh okok

dry plank
#

Feels like a bug but may be designed who knows 🙂

vale pine
#

it is a bug

#

it was fixed

#

then re introduced when a bug for assassiantion was fixed

#

dracthyr_shrug and buggy ever since

vagrant fulcrum
#

since if we ignore marks to BP regardless of DN this just gives us extra singular focus dmg right?

dry plank
vagrant fulcrum
#

they won't do it, the spec would actually be playable fully blindfolded

is deathstalker better than trickster for M+

but then u look at this log

and its number 1 on first boss

this one is 3

#

the average hit is all over the place for it tho its really weird

#

ik target count effects it but first boss algethar doesnt really deviate from target counts

#

just how fast targets are dying

why does /cast Shadow Dance /cast Secret Technique work but /cast Shadow Dance /cast Shadowstrike doesnt?

fun thing it works with my background music i listen rn

sour granite
#

are we happy in pve about deathstalker's mark not moving to new targets if already applied?

#

because in pvp that is completely miserable to play around

lilac stag
#

No one is happy with mark

#

except the dev

sour granite
#

understandable :]

swift tinsel
#

if they did it because they didn't want us swapping marks to not trigger DN in aoe then just make DN a compelling buff to consume in aoe

#

simple as

vagrant fulcrum
swift tinsel
#

how did they try

vagrant fulcrum
#

they added that shit that makes you do aoe when you consume marks

swift tinsel
#

that's not DN

vagrant fulcrum
#

think for 10 seconds

#

if you ignore DN to spam BP that's what you're mainly giving up in regards to aoe dmg

swift tinsel
#

you actively avoid spending DN

vagrant fulcrum
#

yes

swift tinsel
#

that's...what we do

vagrant fulcrum
#

therefore

#

THE MARK CONSUMPTION AOE IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TUNINGWISE TO LEAD TO THE INTENDED GAMEPLAY OF NOT IGNORING DN

swift tinsel
#

or

vagrant fulcrum
#

aka they added a node to avoid this specific issue

#

and they didnt tune it

#

if you just say put bp on dn yes, we've been asking this shit since s1

#

tww

#

and they wont do it

swift tinsel
#

BP itself does more damage to justify just using that over considering Mass Casualty anyways, which, when considering the change to nimble they needed to make BP a compelling button in its own right

bleak night
#

deathstalker rework in the last titan

#

trust

swift tinsel
#

there's a few ways to make DN viable in aoe

#

they just refuse to do any of them

vagrant fulcrum
#

bro they couldnt have just made it a 10s dot when you press blades then make everything else a buff on you, could they

#

nah let's have some GARBAGE

swift tinsel
#

so baking damage into mark consumption with BP will be fucky

#

they need to address DN itself

vagrant fulcrum
#

fundamentally eviscerate is just too shit of a button

swift tinsel
#

well

vagrant fulcrum
#

if it was remotely good enough relative to bp dn should make it compelling

swift tinsel
#

initially it was whatever bc they didn't care how ds worked for sub

#

and they could just have it be envenom for sin bc they have spatter

#

but now that ds is comparable to trickster in aoe

#

sub only being able to use dn on evisc (and it being shit regardless) makes it even more apparent

vagrant fulcrum
#

it's funny, they're trying to dial back the aoe armsrace but it's causing them issues like this

#

they gave out too much free aoe to too many classes

warm marlin
#

should be much easier for them to tune sub st now

vagrant fulcrum
#

would be safer to buff generators than evisc, even if it's a lot less cool

warm marlin
#

ya but they could nerf coup

#

or trickster generally

#

w/ the opener is it a consideration to realign ur GCDs before entering the 2nd dance in blades? Like when I get the last GCD off barely in 1st dance do I wait a GCD before 2nd dance + next GCD or just insta send shadow dance in between GCDs? Or is there not even a difference

warm marlin
#

try to wait until your gcd is ready

#

dont want to waste dance time

void hound
#

yeah you never want to clip your dance

finite crow
#

im kinda clueless on the gear now how mutch haste should i look for for an allarounder

warm marlin
#

especially with haste making dance time not a strict integer you're probably going to lose a gcd if you clip it

warm marlin
#

35 ideally i think

finite crow
#

and what should i sacrifice the most for it?

#

vers or mastery?

void ocean
#

What do you guys think, what are the odds we will get more default UI settings before the release?

#

Like in terms of more options

bleak night
#

100%, since there are damage meter things on beta that arent on live

twin quartz
#

Do you guys know if logs can be trusted right now? The dps meter certainly can’t be

bleak night
#

technically correct is the best kind of correct

muted girder
#

are we wanting more mastery or vers right now? sims seem to be saying vers, but most of the top logs have higher mastery than vers

hazy breach
#

But the dps meter can be trusted, its just ass

twin quartz
#

It’s just weird. My dps meter doesn’t match anywhere near what the logs say on any fight in the raid so far

#

I thought I was doing 28k, but I was doing nearly double on the log

#

So it was odd and didn’t know which to trust or not trust

twin quartz
twin quartz
alpine wraith
#

you dont fit 2 sec techs in blades anyway

#

because it is better so supercharge it on 3rd dance

twin quartz
#

You get more pump with lingering darkness/supercharge I’m guessing

alpine wraith
#

think lingering is bugged with sec tech but yea

twin quartz
#

Ahh, gotcha

alpine wraith
#

but also numbers are not final so who knows

#

maybe it becomes worth somehow

fallow nimbus
#

guys, where is that 1% extra haste coming from then alacrity gives 3%?

alpine wraith
#

are you human gobling or NE

fallow nimbus
#

no

#

voidelf

alpine wraith
#

no idea

fallow nimbus
#

is the real stat haste the one for the 35%?

plain zephyr
#

Why do we Evis here, instead of just doing Shadow Strike -> Shadow Dance/Blades -> Secret Tech

alpine wraith
#

when you strike from stealth you get full cp

#

so you evis for snd

plain zephyr
#

ahhhhhh SnD thnaks

#

thanks*

#

No SnD off Secret Technique. Makes sense. Thank you

fallow nimbus
#

what's wierd is, i get only 3,63% haste in m+ gear with lower haste while i get 4.01% in the st setup

#

from somewhere, so alacrity seems to be not 3%

#

or wierd 3%

remote knot
#

If, theoretically, I wanted to go all in on Shadow Damage(mainly for thematic reasons), how would I fessibly shuffle the talents around so that i can get both Gloomblade and Dark Brew? (note, I do not do Mythic+ or Mythic raiding or any super bleeding edge content or anything like that. I'm a casual scrub that does heroics, delves, etc. My main use for Sub spec is as my primary Delve spec)

real ravine
#

I wonder what race be better now, with everything being on 1:30 and racial for Maghar at 2mins

sly shore
#

it multiplies of itself

#

it's a unique stat

warm marlin
#

so when you add 31.87% haste and 3% haste together, you do 31.87% + 3%, but also add 31.87% OF 3%, which gives you the extra 1%

fallow nimbus
#

that's like wierd and stupid

warm marlin
#

just means that haste, unlike other stats, benefits more from external/class buffs

fallow nimbus
#

it's funny that once tfd is active the dance duration in deepening shoots up

#

like everything wierdly scales with eachother

it's a wow season, so you'll probably play 1x sub in early prog and later prog it will be 1x assa

queen plinth
#

well unlucky so def 1 rogue not more yea?

red vortex
#

Man asks in pre patch

#

And says xD on coinflip answer

warm marlin
#

pretty much always going to play at least 1, 2 is rare and most guilds don't even have 2 good rogues to field

cursive vapor
#

pre patch = season garf_sit

warm marlin
#

cant say anything conclusive this early but i wouldnt expect 2

queen plinth
#

gg mage is doomed, rogue spot is prolly taken already. whjat do i play

red vortex
#

We got like a month of pre patch

#

With tuning to come

#

Won't know till we know

#

Which is start of season

bleak night
warm marlin
#

if you arent raiding at the level where you're going to hard play the rwf comp, i actually think double rogue is pretty good

#

tanky, cheat death, both assa/sub are bursty and can do prio damage/add killing jobs (sub better at adds obv)

red vortex
#

Just need 2 rogues to have competition

clever lintel
#

Honestly even after launch shits gunna get tunned. I just always have a class or two in my back pocket if rogue ends up being shit. But I haven't had much issues getting into mythic raids

But it will do less damage yes

why tf doesnt it proc dm

#

Oh

#

dumb

hazy breach
#

Coup doesnt either

uneven scarab
hazy breach

But apex procced eviscerate does

So if you have apex procced and use eviscerate you get 2 procs of DM

@alpine wraith regarding opener - why do we not skip the first evis and go ss dance sectech?

to get snd

otherwise you get 2 to 3 extra secs with no snd

god bless not having to press rupture anymore

fallow nimbus
#

worked for me too but i switched back to manually pressing cds

vale pine
#

i have secret/dance seperated atm

#

i need to see if i lose gcd's due to that

fallow nimbus
#

what about pressing secret then dance kekw you know spell queue and such

#

like we did with dfa before the big hit

vale pine
#

you lose ms

#

but its like this

#

you gain a certain amount of extra space from haste

#

the extra time save is relevant if the extra gcd barely fits

#

or if you play trickster i guess, because of the 1.2 sec gcd on coup

#

so the macro only rly helps you with consistency depending on your actual haste values

Blizzard really did good with this.. now im worried we'll be nerfed

swift tinsel
twin quartz
#

For now I have a regular dance macro, a dance+sectech macro, a dance+sectech+shadowblades macro, and a shadowblades+dance macro to see what feels best on reducing partial global loss. My dance duration is 8.1s with where my haste is now, so it’s pretty tight

swift tinsel
#

and in the options turn off notifications so you don't hear a little voice going "Fatality!" every few seconds

#

but that will keep lua errors from popping up in the middle of your screen

fucking great thank you very much

i just hear dingdingdingdingding in the middle of a m+ run

#

rotationally when you guys get back to shadow blades whats your amount of dances / sec tech lookin like? 2 full charges or 1+1/2 ish of dance? Is sec tech always in ur first dance in cds or is it sometimes in the 2nd dance?

hazy breach
#

2 full dances

#

Unless you get BL youre not getting 2 sectechs anyway

#

So as long as you supercharge it kinda doesnt matter

strange heath
#

does black powder not consume DS mark?

#

sometimes it consumes it sometimes it doesnt

sacred gull
#

it should consume, unless you have the Darkest Night buff already

strange heath
#

wdym?

sacred gull
#

I edited

#

sometimes you can have both the DS mark on target, and the buff Darkest night at the same time

strange heath
#

yeah i just noticed

#

is that intended?

hazy breach
#

Yes

sacred gull
#

when it happens, your next evi consumes Darkest night but don't consume a stack of DS mark

hazy breach
sacred gull
#

so I guess if you BP it does the same

hazy breach
#

It only mentions eviscerate, but its all finishers

strange heath
#

gotcha

#

so i should just dump the buff with evis in aoe

#

and then continue BP

sacred gull
#

yes

hazy breach
#

No

#

Strike once when darkest night is up

#

And then continue to bp, ignoring the mark

#

It does more damage

sacred gull
#

you mean to get full CP ?

hazy breach
#

Strike to apply the mark

sacred gull
#

and no evi ?

hazy breach
#

Correct

sacred gull
#

so better to hold your darkest night and block the DS mark ?

hazy breach
#

Yes

sacred gull
#

ok, I wil ltry to understand why ^^

hazy breach
#

Its been this way for almost all of tww too fwiw

#

BP does more damage than DN eviscerate+mark damage combined, even with mass casualty

sacred gull
#

didn't play DS zih sub until now

strange heath
#

i understand that

#

but my question

#

is with the hero talent

#

oh

#

i see the edit

#

so its not even worth it?

hazy breach
#

Not worth using DN in bigger aoe

#

On like 3 targets its fine

#

But 8 nah

sacred gull
#

ok

strange heath
#

confused still

#

oh

strange heath
hazy breach
#

Yes

strange heath
# hazy breach

and when you said it was intended, are we sure its actually intended if the tooltip only mentions evis?

hazy breach
#

Yes

#

It was a bug in tww, but they purposefully changed the tooltip to add that "bug"

#

Why? Who the fuck knows

#

hero talent has felt like ass the entire tww and they made it feel even worse for some reason

strange heath
#

okay but clearly theres a discrepancy here if its not acting in accordance to the tooltip, so really the text should be updated?

#

but agreed

hazy breach
#

Tooltips is wow are notoriously awful

strange heath
#

hate this hero tree lol

#

im just asking for my own sanity because it literally unintuitive as hell

sacred gull
#

yeah, I remember when I started sub, got so confused with the hero talent cleave system

#

in trickster

swift tinsel
#

to be fair, you'd think if a tooltip said X/Y/Z cleaves to 7 nearby enemies you'd continue using them to that threshold

#

instead of starting aoe at 4

strange heath
#

so realistically mass casualty is just ass?

hazy breach
#

No its really good

#

A pure ST eviscerate in aoe is ass

swift tinsel
#

give us combo back by having DN absorb % of mass casualty mark dmg

sacred gull
#

must be good in 3 targets, or when you have to prio target in AOE

strange heath
#

this hero spec is so broken lol

#

so they essentially coded an "intended" interaction that stops me from using my hero talent for an entire pull if i go into the pull with darkest night

hazy breach
#

What

#

No

#

Theyve decided to make darkest night not do anything in aoe

#

The talent functions, youre just purposefully ignoring it

strange heath
#

if you have darkest night buff up, you cant iterate on the DS mark

hazy breach
#

Correct

#

But you can apply it with strike

strange heath
#

ik but does mass casualty work even if your finishers are consuming a stack?

hazy breach
#

No

strange heath
#

thats what im saying

#

so if you go into a pull with darkest night up, then re-apply mark, you lose mass casualty for 30 seconds unless you evis right?

hazy breach
#

Yes

hazy breach
#

Its done that way to "force" us to use darkest night

#

Its just not worth it anyway

strange heath
#

so is that a tuning issue

#

or is it just dumb lol

hazy breach
#

I mean theyre not gonna buff darkest night to like 300%

#

Its just poorly designed

#

And thats not even mentioning being unable to move the mark

#

If you want to swap target? Sorry bud no can do, mark is stuck

strange heath
#

at what point do they just nuke deathstalker

#

its actually horrible

hazy breach
#

If you accidently let your mark be on the paladin bosses when they bubble

#

Your mark is gone for the entire fight, no possible way to reapply

strange heath
#

and the 30% shadow dmg buff after blades end, i mean thats cool, but why tf wouldnt they just bake it into my cds??

hazy breach
#

Same in pvp

hazy breach
strange heath
#

like why do i get the buff after i do a shit ton of shadow dmg, when ret pally hits 1 button and everythings baked into wings

#

genuinely jut feels terrible

#

singular focus is the only redeeming thing about that tree

hazy breach
#

You can select the talent that buffs the burst instead though

#

Thats a sensible choice

#

Like that choice node is genuinely fine

strange heath
#

remove all other hero talents in death stalker, but buff singular focus to 20%

#

would genuinely be better

hazy breach
#

The other choice node is just "bp+storm damage" vs "better bp+storm damage"

strange heath
#

im coming from sin rogue

#

and deathstalker is still ass

#

but it made some sense

hazy breach
#

Well yeah its clearly designed for assa

strange heath
#

whats the general opinion about them reducing sub to like 3 buttons?

shrewd lantern
#

i mean flag going was fine

#

since it was literally just a setup global

strange heath
#

flag was horrible agreed

shrewd lantern
#

well i didnt mind flag when it did damage

#

but when it was just a buff that had the same cd as sb

#

whats the point of it costing a global

strange heath
#

i feel like thistle tea is still a pain point

#

its even more useless without the mastery

shrewd lantern
#

Not really with how few times you take tea

#

as sub

strange heath
#

talking in general

hazy breach
#

Just dont track it or think about it Surebud

shrewd lantern
#

you guys overthink tea

#

its crazy

strange heath
#

im not overthinking, it just feels archaeic

#

like its an active ability at bottom of talent tree that i dont press?

#

feels weird

shrewd lantern
#

i have it macroed for both specs

#

people like to pretend the mastery matters

#

I feel it was made to appeal to nostalgia boomers

strange heath
#

that was my thinking too

shrewd lantern
#

like instant poison is also frankly useless

#

assa at least its lethal poisons have spec interaction

strange heath
#

they should just full send into the shadow theme

#

like why not make the poisons shadow in a way

#

doing nature dmg with instant poison when im out here making shadow clones lol

shrewd lantern
#

pretty sure the only complaints i saw about nightblade

#

were pvp pauls complaining other rogues could cloak it off but not rupture

#

when vanishing

strange heath
#

sin gets poison, outlaw gets sharpen blades, sub gets some shadow enhancement

#

thematically makes sense

#

cant convince me otherwise

shrewd lantern
#

well the "cool" outlaw ability got nipped in df beta

#

giving your party cdr

strange heath
#

welcome aug

shrewd lantern
#

I'm gonna be real

#

i see lizards as a priest mobility external

#

more than a class

finite crow
#

how neglectable is haste in m+

pale sequoia
#

Is it not possible to macro Shadow Dance, Shadow Blades and Secret Technique as a single button macro?

#

It seems like this use to be a thing, but it is just not casting Shadow Dance for me

hazy breach
#

It is

pale sequoia
#

Is it Subterfuge that is interfering?

hazy breach
#

Make sure you are not in stealth when pressing it

#

Yes

pale sequoia
#

Ahh ok

hazy breach
#

I would recommend to spec a talent that provides any form of damage instead of subterfuge

pale sequoia
#

Can macros do something if you have a certain talent?

#

This was for my delves build

#

but I do find it annoying

#

Much better

#

Should I always have a Shadow Dance on charge, or should I always wait for Secret Technique?

sterile aurora
#

im making sure i always have a charge for shadow blades

hazy breach
plush roost
#

maybe I changed his mind today ^_^

woeful wren
#

We have no AoE stops anymore, no buff for party. So unless shroud routes are insane or we have an actual buff to bring I can see why ppl rate rogue low if it's not ahead by a mile

thorny wagon
#

In the guide it says to use Dance with low cp. But can i also use it with 6+ cp so my first global inside Dance is a finisher ?

plush roost
thorny wagon
#

Aye thank you

plush roost
#

its less relevenat on trickster, DS for some reason really likes striking first according to sims

chrome palm
#

but tier list was below frost???

#

how could this be

alpine wraith
#

i mean we do decent dmg

#

problem is nowadays that is not enough

#

like rarely you brick a key because you lack dmg

chrome palm
#

no i feel thats fairly common

#

like if the class just does the most damage i think you just bring it

plush roost
#

entirety of s3 tww was, "sorry this class or you dont bring enough damage"

#

need BM hunter sry

#

need DH prio sorry

#

ele dam

chrome palm
#

also, funnel profiles were tuned down a lot

alpine wraith
#

depends if it is like surv or demo lock in s3 shadowlands yea

chrome palm
#

while sub is getting a better profile

alpine wraith
#

sub is doing decent in midnight trust

woeful wren
#

I mean it was only about prio dmg and/or needing lust/cr

alpine wraith
#

just be the group lead

#

and be the classist

#

only monk warr shaman and druid allowed

chrome palm
#

bro put monk up there 💀

plush roost
#

thoughts on prio damage gamers?

alpine wraith
#

and that is with lots of cp and general dmg bugs

woeful wren
#

SF feels way worse than it should

chrome palm
#

ig its aug key

#

so its just you and mage

woeful wren
#

But its better than nothing

plush roost
#

actual boss dam

chrome palm
#

skyfury is like 7.5% last time i asked lol

#

its by far the strongest raid buff for sub

plush roost
#

Not having skyfury is actually so insanely noticeable

#

now

#

like holy

woeful wren
#

I felt it in s3

#

Playing with dru vs sham

plush roost
#

25% attack speed and swift slasher just amplifies skyfuries autos so much

chrome palm
#

i just played thistle tea without rsham

#

but the whole apex is getting buffed by shaman

plush roost
#

yea

woeful wren
#

Too bad feral sucks atm

#

Or phys comp could be stonks

chrome palm
#

rdruid is strong

#

enh is strong(?)

#

there is a path for rogue in the meta, just needs to be tuned well

woeful wren
#

enh always been largely magic tho no?

chrome palm
#

doesnt matter

#

at all

#

monk is largely magic

#

sub is largely magic

#

sub doesnt play in "phys comp"

woeful wren
#

s3 monk debuff in m+ was like 3.5-4% overall increase?

#

wut

chrome palm
#

phys was like 65% of your dps in keys or something

#

also

alpine wraith
#

evis and bp do a ton of phys dmg monk buff is not bad

chrome palm
#

its not about the damage buff

alpine wraith
#

just not the best

woeful wren
#

no chance it was that low

chrome palm
#

phys comp is about small consistent pulls

alpine wraith
#

druid and shaman are better

chrome palm
#

which sub is not good at

#

you just play outlaw for that comp

#

which gets more benefit from monk buff

sterile aurora
#

is the DR poison rogues have just not worth using?

chrome palm
#

if you did a key with phys comp like a FG as sub, its miserable

#

because you never have cds for half the packs

chrome palm
woeful wren
#

wut

#

i was doing flood 21 with all cds every pack

sterile aurora
chrome palm
#

yes

chrome palm
woeful wren
#

why would u path for outlaw when ur with sub/feral?

chrome palm
#

thats why im saying sub isnt really fit for phys comp

#

because the routing is bad for it

woeful wren
#

it was our best comp

#

comp =/= route

#

what

alpine wraith
#

depends you can always talk it out

woeful wren
#

if ur playing 8 target route its for fury/outlaw. if ur sub ofc u play around the feral/sub

alpine wraith
#

it is never cut and dry

#

even diff people do diff routes with same comp

chrome palm
#

sub had a lot of comps it worked in

#

you didnt need feral or monk or anything

#

many top runs as sub dont have these

woeful wren
#

our best comp to shine in was monk/fury/sub/bm/dru. 2nd was feral/rsham and the "carry me pls" was war/bm/frost/rdru

#

if u played with a DH ur just actively griefing his funnel

chrome palm
#

plenty of subs played with dh

woeful wren
#

and they by default griefed the dh

#

cos all our shit cleaved

chrome palm
#

stand on the other side of the boss man

#

idk

#

dont hit powder

#

monk is not at all mandatory for sub and probably isnt even a top 3 buff in midnight

#

thats all im saying

woeful wren
#

right but u came making wild statements

chrome palm
#

i said sub doesnt work very well in phys comp

#

sub worked no better in phys comp than fdk would

woeful wren
#

we benefit way more than dk ever did last season

#

they had like 1 spell that scaled

chrome palm
#

you can do all the sub/phys comp keys you want

woeful wren
#

I probably will ye

plush roost
#

just brew rdruid enh sub arms

#

enh is your burst prio

#

arms is your cleave/aoe beater

#

and sub is your consistent prio

#

with DS

chrome palm
#

outlaw/ww in shambles

plush roost
#

yeah bear MW both uh

#

lackin

#

same with outlaw

#

poor banshers bro

#

survival kinda litty

chrome palm
#

thought outlaw was strongish

plush roost
#

idk it feels like

#

just a worse sub rogue idk

#

but my outlaw is least amount of playtime on beta

chrome palm
#

being made of glass doesnt help

woeful wren
#

btw @plush roost how many dungeons is aoe purge good? maybe we can bring that, being belf kek

plush roost
#

Uh if u go into maisara caverns and aoe purge the shield skeletons you can wipe your party!

#

thats about it

woeful wren

i may have had a belf dh moment

in one of my keys

woeful wren
#

they have a shield that deals dmg on break or what

harsh meadow
#

I do like 12s maybe 13s for vault and that’s it so sub is looking nice lol I don’t wanna think too hard

plush roost
woeful wren
#

I just dnt want to play dwarf

harsh meadow
#

I also really like I don’t have to do a bunch of bullshit set up to start doing AoE damage

woeful wren
#

So i need to find a logical reason to explain to ppl why im not u know

harsh meadow
#

I played enhance through TWW and it’s fixed now but Jesus Christ man just to start doing proper aoe damage it was like 4 globals first

plush roost
#

just go maghar, orc, dwarf smile

#

yo for m+ is sophic devotion + wafting devotion or artistry + tenacity better at the moment than 2x radiant power on weapon enchants?
all guides saying something different:D

tribal blade
#

by a large margin for me

#

isn't sophic devotion from last expac

daring shore
tribal blade
#

i heard things were fucky liek that

daring shore
#

yea but its working

tribal blade
#

ahhh i see

shrewd lantern
#

debated trying force multiplier since its always up

daring shore
shrewd lantern
#

idk check the actual numbers

#

of how much they give/uptime

#

force has a track record of always being up

tribal blade
#

so this works too

#

is there any danger of getting action against your account for using it

daring shore
#

that one doesnt procc it looks like

shrewd lantern
#

you can also toss an extra socket on your belt

chrome palm
#

it does 20 dps

shrewd lantern
#

unless it got patched

chrome palm
#

along with hidden satyr

tribal blade
#

i think it's righteous fire?

#

not a great deal

chrome palm
#

no its

tribal blade
#

oh wait

#

nah it's not even on here haha

#

i think

chrome palm
tribal blade
#

ok yeah

#

doesn't proc

chrome palm
#

i think righteous fire is the priory buff

shrewd lantern
#

no its the radiant flame world buff

#

thing

tribal blade

world buff

chrome palm
#

some

arathi dogshit

shrewd lantern
#

doesnt work in instances

it does more if you're renown 10 with them

you can also have an insane

These are my stats rn on prepatch ,what trinkets with dmg proc should I get ? kept hearding about that

plush roost
#

I mean you press storm

#

And then you press black powder lmao

upbeat garden
plush roost
tribal blade
#

yeah that sounds about right

plush roost
#

As u can see

#

This key has a lot of 2 target moments so i pressed strike more

upbeat garden
#

Wanted to ask for a while ,but why we dont get back a bar full of cp after we do a finisher anymore?

#

on prepatch I mean

plush roost
#

Its in our apex talent now

upbeat garden
#

oh..

plush roost
#

They took it out of shadowcraft

#

Yeee is lame

upbeat garden
#

I didnt understand why on beta works and here not

plush roost
#

You do get an insane amount of refunds now tho

#

With apex

upbeat garden
#

Ye , on beta the playstyle feels better

tribal blade
plush roost
#

Ive done sec tec strike coup evis strike evis evis strike coup evis strike evis evis strike evis evis in lust

#

Blender mode activated

tribal blade
#

that sounds awesome

plush roost
#

And each of those refunds does a clone that doubles the spell

#

An apex supercharged coup

#

Actually cranks so hard

tribal blade
#

there's no way they nerf it right

#

well maybe tuning nerf

plush roost
#

Not if warlock mage and dk are how they are

tribal blade
#

but not nerf the actual sht we generate

#

cool

plush roost
#

Nah i think thats the intended playstyle

tribal blade
#

awesome

plush roost
#

That can only really happen in lust or with sht pooled

#

But yeah the apex completely changes how sub works and adds a lot of fun to the spec imo

lilac stag
#

don’t let people know it’s fun

#

Going to destroy the 2 button narrative

daring shore
#

with those last 3 missing points in prepatch is deathstalker or trickster superior in mythic+?
and is umbral edge better than veiltouched?
kinda new to sub figuring stuff out

plush roost
#

I think tricksters better simply because it doesnt have the mark shenangians, u just skip the 2nd row

plush roost
shrewd lantern
#

i mean do people unironically play prepatch over beta

#

playing an incomplete game is wild

plush roost
#

Not everyone has a 110$ prepurchase

daring shore
#

im playing both

#

Or however much it is

wait is it not on ptr already

the graphics suck

Learned that you can mage invis the leaps on 3rd boss in windrunner but vanish doesnt work 🙂

bleak night
serene notch
#

would it be a gain to priortize coup if you are low on flawless form stacks before sexy tech?

plush roost
#

But sec tec cdr > all

#

Another small minmax that makes this spec not just a 2 button spec btw

shrewd lantern
#

just change all your ability icons to sectech or sb

#

then it looks like a 2 button spec

plush roost
serene notch
plush roost
#

Nah its good, its 3-12% more damage on sec tec

#

Assuming you do it correctly

#

Shit adds up

#

Id do it more in keys but storm just randomly applies unseen bladr

#

So sometimes i dont have a fazed main target and tab targetting/clicking plates in beta is uh not ez

tribal blade
#

so cool playing around a mechanic that technically they removed

bro what did they do to my spec

That’s a crazy pfp LOL

is haste our best stat now?

On prepatch it kinda is

Need a lot of it for st

Just recraft jewelry

true not a bad idea

A lil 5-9ish second window where u dont have 5 stacks

#

How much haste are u guys running for keys?

lilac stag
#

Whatever dslice suggests

soft summit
#

The pin says you want 35% haste in prepatch

lilac stag
#

It does not

#

35 is roughly ST target.

#

M+ is lower as stated.

#

Dslice still give best option for gear available.

red vortex
lilac stag
#

How is that 35 for keys

red vortex
#

Oh fk

soft summit
red vortex
#

Well i did wake up 5 min agogarf

lilac stag
#

again. Use dslice. If you wreck your crit for haste it’ll be bad

red vortex
#

My bad

lilac stag
#

Right now slice recommends 30% for me. Your mileage will vary.

supple pawn
#

how does sub feel atm?

#

i only played it in s2 and s3 briefly in keys and pvp

placid blade
#

Just trying it out my rogue feels awful now. Will it feel considerably better or just a little better if I recraft everything to haste?

lilac stag
#

It’s a vibe

supple pawn
#

would i enjoy it if i enjoyed deathstalker for those seasons?

lilac stag
#

you can certainly play DS right now. Moving mark is more difficult.

You’re weaving BP and Evis at this point

narrow shadow
#

I was asking how much are people running, not how much I need to run, just to clarify on my question

#

Curious on people's stat spreads

lilac stag
#

You should be able to see that data on WCL. General estimate would be between 20-30% in keys.

It’s also prepatch so nothing really matters. Experiment with whatever gear you have kinda thing.

#

recrafting and gems / enchants likely easiest approach, which takes you back to dslice. If you want more aoe focus a bit more on mastery than haste.

#

Haste is getting you an extra cast in dance and lowering Sectech cd. It’s not just a what feels good stat.
