red vortex
#

in pre-patch

#

instead of finding more %

steep raven
#

I went overboard

haughty mural
#

im desperately craving for any haste i can get before raid today

#

gimme some

red vortex
#

is that natty haste?

#

or with buffs

#

like manaoil, flasks, food

steep raven
#

Algari mana oil is the only buff active

red vortex
#

damn, i can only reach 36% with haste food,flask,manaoil

steep raven
#

Without it

red vortex
#

then dont use manaoil

#

cus that is enough

haughty mural
#

wax 'em

steep raven
#

But what's the point in those 0.61s? This ain't giving you a GCD

alpine wraith
#

it scales with haste

#

also it can give you a gcd depending

#

globals have some leeway

steep raven
#

yeah, lag etc, but not .61s

alpine wraith
#

and there is also coup that takes 1.2 instead of 1

#

you would be surprised the amount of people that lose gcds by 0.2 not even 0.6

steep raven
#

Well, I'm planning to run mana oil, so I'll cut it a bit so mana oil compensates

alpine wraith
#

it will be a funny thing to calculate

#

and the worst thing is after doing the math you have to try and see if you can do it consistently

#

otherwise you lose value xd

steep raven
#

I'll just change a couple of gems drop it maybe by 1%

lilac stag
alpine wraith
#

the extender

stable mulch
#

do we still do backstab as first generator during shadow dance?

alpine wraith
#

nope

lilac stag

#

It would be funny and interesting to see later in midnight how long we can extend shadow dance. I’d like to see a 20+ second shadow dance for the lols

steep raven
#

There's prob a DR at some point

hazy breach
#

But yes secondary stats have diminishing returns on them when you stack too much

reef walrus
#

we'll have to wait until the last patch of midnight before we'd be able to reach this amount of stats again, if it's even possible

lilac stag
reef walrus
#

that was with only mana oils on

#

I have the heavy haste neck & ring from hardmode, the haste ring from dimmy mythic & then threw haste on every single piece, including a sacbrood etc

#

completely useless for actually doing damage, but I wanted to see if I could get my dance to last longer than it's cooldown

lilac stag
#

gotcha.

#

Yeah I just care if you can get Sectech to sync with supercharged cp

hazy breach
#

Fwiw i realized this is slightly wrong for all the values above 1320, as i forgot to account for the dminishing returns

lilac stag
#

you should be able to

#

At least on prepatch

haughty mural
#

how would i know. i got 15% right now kekdog

lilac stag
#

play your priest? kekdog

haughty mural
lilac stag
#

Apparently I was the smart one stashing away haste gear for outlaw

haughty mural
#

as soon as i'll come, I'll try to get squeeze every single point of haste from everywhere

#

(now that i know i can start recraft orders without acuity) (:

haughty mural
steel spindle
#

its so mean to keep it there

#

like what am i gonna do. use symbols?

chrome palm
#

which vanish do you like

lilac stag
chrome palm
#

essential cooldown vanish or utility cooldown vanish

chrome palm
#

you also have to appreciate the two coup de grace trackers

chrome palm
#

instead of making an escalating blade tracker that changes icon to coup de grace, they opted to have an escalating blade tracker and a separate eviscerate icon that changes to coup de grace Cheesin

steel spindle
#

i gotta let go of the ego

chrome palm
#

has anyone figured out what backstab is supposed to be in the cd manager

#

is that old perf veins

steel spindle
#

i am not my abilities my abilities are not me

haughty mural
#

as long as we get FW any day now

chrome palm
#

if we get backstab in dance then yes fw would be nice

#

or even storm in dance

hazy breach
chrome palm
#

im guessing theyll do another wave of cdm data soon™

lilac stag
kind river
#

is there a "known bugs" list somewhere

swift tinsel
#

!bugs

wicked joltBOT
kind river
#

I'm trying to figure out how I did an entire gallywix kill with no hero talents working

#

as deathstalker

#

mind you, this content is old shit so it didn't matter

#

just curious

swift tinsel
#

there is a bug with mark just disappearing

kind river
#

oh yep, bug spotted on the list

#

gg

swift tinsel
#

ye we're spoiled for choice

#

lmao

bright sundial
#

I need apex to come now I want my clones now

#

Also the other half of shadowcraft OMEGAKEKW

swift tinsel
#

can't wait to send strikes with full cp with apex

hazy breach
#

Id be surprised if that doesnt get nuked

#

Ngl

swift tinsel
#

ye same

#

will find some way to brick that

#

same with cancelauraing the buff like with dn

#

friction

steel spindle
#

i wont miss flag though

warm marlin
#

so many flag haters

#

rip my beloved

swift tinsel
#

sounds like a false flag operation my guy

#

no one's ever called it their beloved

steel spindle
#

This man is spitting facts

lilac stag
#

Ain’t no one got time for 14 minute YouTube that can be summed up in a paragraph. gg

lilac stag
steel spindle
#

your short attention span deserves those 4 buttons.

lilac stag
#

you counting skills are something kindergartners would laugh at.

steel spindle
#

sorry I'm not use to counting that high:(

lilac stag
#

2 builder + 2 spenders + 3 baseline CDs + 1 optional CD is a little more than 4

#

if you don’t like the spec, or the game, shop around.

steel spindle
#

I know I'm just still processing my loss wobblypensive

#

I just resubbed after a year and its all stripped and also the addons

#

But I'm not gonna give up

swift tinsel
#

I think I'm in my 12th UI iteration as of last night lol

#

since prepatch

lilac stag
#

Fun fact. Most non-regulars in here drop sub as soon as assa is even remotely close in damage tuning, and it’s still the less brains needed to play spec.

steel spindle
#

its like a lost parts of me but maybe those parts were never really a part of me . apart from the parts.

steel spindle
lilac stag
#

do what everyone else does. Try another class, then come back and realize sub is just a vibe going into MN

steel spindle
#

I know I will. it happens everytime lol

#

I though about it for an hour though.

#

I've played these games before!

vale pine
#

i am not 100% sure the sin/sub discussion is super accurate

lilac stag
#

So let’s just cut to the ending.
🤝

vale pine
#

because when i looked at play rate, it very much went 100% tuning dependent

#

over one xpac

swift tinsel
#

you'd have to pay me to play midnight assassination

lilac stag
#

People hop off sub as soon as it’s close

opal basalt
#

Don’t rogue players usually have one spec of the three that they don’t wanna touch?

steel spindle
#

I just wish they would give us more roguey abilities

opal basalt
#

For me it’s assa for sure

vale pine
#

problem is

#

it was never close ^^

opal basalt
steel spindle
swift tinsel
#

I'd actually take outlaw over assassination going into the next xpac

opal basalt
#

Before and after prepatch

shrewd lantern
#

i mean assa is technically easier

#

but it also has execute

#

so if sin and sub are on paper the same performance wise

steel spindle
#

if sub is 4 buttons ass is 2

#

ratio wise

swift tinsel
#

the envenom simulator train continues

vale pine
#

it was historically true that people would switch away to sin because you have lower skill expression and high floor, so just keeping up bleeds was enough to be competitive

steel spindle
#

mutmutenvmutmutenv

shrewd lantern
#

envenom train sim is actually more important now

vale pine
#

i don't think this will be true in midnight tho

shrewd lantern
#

the apex rewards you for chaining several envs in a short window

vale pine
#

because lets not sugar coat it, all specs/classes are now playable for casual players

steel spindle
#

no gouge and now no rupture:(

#

I might play on my monk for a bit though.

#

I know I'll be back though tomorrow

swift tinsel
#

I'm still alt shopping lol

steel spindle
#

I'm thinking of boosting a warrior or dk

opal basalt
#

I’m gonna stick to rogue because outlaw and sub are definitely cool still and we didn’t have a rogue in guild yet

swift tinsel
#

uhdk is on the shortlist bc its thematically awesome

#

havoc is also quite fun with inertia builds

shrewd lantern
#

i mean you can still take gouge

sour horizon
#

Enhance sham is also really enjoyable

shrewd lantern
#

dont you just drop nightstalker movespeed

steel spindle
#

that 20% does feel hot 🥵

lilac stag
hazy breach
#

Theres a fuckton of talents you can remove for it

#

Not just movespeed in stealth

steel spindle
#

Sorry, I must have missed it

hazy breach
#

But as of now blind is still aoe with Airborne, so no point taking gouge really

shrewd lantern
#

i liked how i saw someone link a "class cooldowns sheet"

#

and i see

swift tinsel
#

also back to tweaksui lol

lilac stag
#

I’m genuinely excited for short rapid dance burst.

shrewd lantern
swift tinsel
#

tried better cdm but can't adjust icon x/y independently so thats a no-go for me

shrewd lantern
#

its a bit funny how much the general playerbase has no idea how rogue works

hazy breach
#

Nothing changed in the CD department though

swift tinsel
hazy breach
#

Its the same as its been since 10.2

shrewd lantern
#

do you actually run double vanish in raid

#

as sin now

graceful rock
#

No

hazy breach
#

Well vanish isnt even a cooldown anyway

#

But yea

shrewd lantern
#

its just funny a "general class cds" list has it

#

not realizing double vanish is a class talent

#

not spec

lilac stag
vale pine
#

2x vanish was exclusive to sub

steel spindle
#

da crit from the legendary

vale pine
#

tho like many other things, was given to everyone^^

shrewd lantern
#

yeah it would help ma and if double improve garroting was a thing

#

but nope

steel spindle
#

I miss that

shrewd lantern
#

i feel more often than not assa has moved to env spam

#

for raid in most tiers

steel spindle
#

it feels like nothing has changed since legion lmfao

shrewd lantern
#

you get one season where rupture and garrote contribute meaningfully

#

then they just exist for vw

lilac stag
shrewd lantern
#

i mean yeah

#

outside of exsang tiers bleeds just exist as damage procs for energy

reef walrus
lilac stag
#

they got a taste of 90 seconds last season. GTFO. Sit on your 2 minutes.

steel spindle
#

that was dope

ripe flame
#

Bleeds seem to be slightly decent on beta, not op but their damage is not irrelevant

shrewd lantern
#

i mean first seasons bleeds have always done the most imo

steel spindle
#

I'll play around on outlaw soon

shrewd lantern
#

then env powercreeps it

#

like its a bit weird to me when sub rupture was doing more

#

often

ripe flame
#

Well no more of that at least (?

shrewd lantern
#

i still press my rupture bind on sub

#

out of habit

#

way too often

ripe flame
#

Phantom pains frfr

lilac stag
#

@swift tinsel did you try cooldown manager centered yet?

swift tinsel
#

I did in the very early days of beta but it was conflicting a lot with other addons so I haven't come back to it since then

lilac stag
#

I’ll try that one today. Maybe one more.

#

I still hate elvui lol

vestal escarp
swift tinsel
#

I'm in the very annoying zone of finding one or two things with each of the cdm addons that don't quite meet what I'm looking for, and those things are all different across addons lol

lilac stag
vestal escarp
#

Not bad

lilac stag
#

Can you remove icon from bars?

vestal escarp
#

The thing about that addon is

vestal escarp
swift tinsel
#

like BCDM is very nice and easy, but I can't make the icons shorter. arc ui is flexible and useful, but bugs out frequently and doesn't display text/cds, tweaksui is very simple and effective but reorders my cds that take several /reloads to fix

vestal escarp
#

I think you can do that in cdm by default

lilac stag
#

maybe I missed it.

#

The bars were not editable in base for me

swift tinsel
#

plus some don't work with masque

#

so I'm 90% sure I'm gonna have to just pick one and deal with whatever negative quirks are associated with it

vestal escarp
#

The good thing about cdm centered is managing profiles

lilac stag
#

My biggest headache with arc is the groups just not flowing from spec to spec

swift tinsel
#

yep

#

or if you copy a profile to a different spec/class each slot still has the icon from the previous

lilac stag
#

Hell even hero to hero

swift tinsel
#

so you see little 2's or 3's on all of them

#

and have to clear out that clutter on literally every single icon that shares a space with another from a different spec/class

#

and sometimes if you click and drag the icons to reorder them in the bar they just jump around to wherever they want anyways

#

or don't line up where you set the x/y

swift tinsel
#

arc ui can do SO much but it can also fuck up SO much

lilac stag
#

assuming its the way its coded

swift tinsel
#

yeah I'm basically just version checking to see what bugs get fixed whenever arc/tweak/bcdm push updates at this point

#

which will probably be the case all the way up to midnight proper

#

if not after

vale pine
#

it will take a while for addons to stabalize

#

expected

swift tinsel
#

yeah

lilac stag
#

like sensei is great, but if you dont turn off smooth animations on the CPs it looks awful

#

theyre so lagged

swift tinsel
#

so right now I'm pretty much just shopping around to see what all of them have to offer

#

yeah that's why I wanted to try out awang's cp/energy one which seems to update faster

#

but its still brand new

#

tried editing the lua to reduce the space between the cp and energy bar but to no avail

warm marlin
#

wangbar HOLY

swift tinsel
#

I like it

#

it actually allows cp color editing

#

conditional*

#

unlike sensei

#

it is funny though when you want to edit it in the Addons menu and it just fucking disappears lol

astral axle
#

Sensei has been making some improvements, so I wouldn't rule it out just yet. Just added a whirlwind stacks tracker base for fury which is very pog

heady dragon
#

wait, do you still need a /cancleaura Shadow Dance macro if you wanna stealth with dance active?

eager latch
#

are we going to run double murder row fishook?

#

that shit goes kinda crazy on beta

swift tinsel
astral axle
#

also I use cdmcentered and with it (and base UI) you can remove icons from buff bars mhm

heady dragon
#

or am i just stuck in combat for 9 years

#

probs that

lilac stag
#

youre in combat

#

hit dance hit stealth, enjoy supercharged cps

heady dragon
#

no i mean

#

going into stealth while dance is running

lilac stag
#

i just said that

#

literal precombat. 1. Hit dance. 2. While dance is active I hit stealth. 3. profit

swift tinsel
#

I think they mean you can't stealth while dance is active

eager latch
#

this shit seems strong in cleave as well

#

that's x2 fishook

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

hm then they must have changed it

uneven scarab
#

definitely have not been able to enter stealth during dance ever, that would be big news if they changed that

swift tinsel
#

that's why I'm skeptical

lilac stag
#

dracthyr_shrug maybe all my haste makes it possiblepepe_chad

lilac stag
#

or between all my ui swaps an old macro ended up on stealth kb lol who knows

steel spindle

man i was scrolled really far up wow

Just got shared media going again

#

Need to get skulllfloerr textures

tender dust
swift tinsel
#

yeah

#

I like it a lot though, like I mentioned though just the gap between cp and energy not being shrinkable my only complaint

slate lantern
#

All my homies exclusively use wangbar

didn't his psu die like right after uploading it too lol

how are you allowed the name Diddyplug but my guildie gets 24 hr ban for Thepeepeeman

any details wizards know how to get a transparent title bar?

#

I tried turning the opacity to 0 and the standard one was showing

haughty mural
lilac stag
haughty mural
#

oh sorry, yeah ofc bars

#

btw: how do i turn acuity off ?

kind bluff
#

So im confused. I finally logged on rogue. Do we still force sectec with the empowered combo points? Or can we use at the end of the second dance during shadow blades?

#

Or do we pop the 3rd dance for the empowered sectec?

uneven scarab
runic verge
#

Anyone else afraid you're gonna get bored of this spec in prog?

kind bluff
#

But is it worth waiting just a second for the third dance to sectech or squeeze in the last second of the secind dance in shadowblades

#

Guess I can go pillage through logs

uneven scarab
#

would just wait till third dance

#

better to supercharge ur sectech

jolly sleet
#

would it be right to say that :

  • sometimes i dance without sec tech (typically during shadow blades)
  • all my sec tech happen during dance?
#

wasn't clear corrected it

lilac stag
#

Only time you dance without Sectech is second cast in blades

torn tide
#

only sectec during dance

lilac stag
#

Sectech is first finisher (or second) in every dance

jolly sleet
#

okay thats what I understood from faq yup

#

so my macro end up being :

#showtooltip
/use [mod:alt] 13
/use [mod:alt] Potion
/cast Danse de l’ombre
/cast [mod:alt] Lames de l’ombre
/cast [mod] Technique secrète

  • when pressing alt I go all out
  • when pressing ctrl/shift (mouse modifiers) I just sec tech dance
  • when not pressing any modifier I only dance
lilac stag

my brain just melted

ist that buggy ?

it does say i dont have enough

scarlet heath

yes it requires crests even if it says it doesnt

oh that what scath meant

and even if it says it needs like 10

it actually eats 15

haughty mural

i just wanted to prep for tonight

i fear i dont have time for that

lilac stag

convert old crests

haughty mural
#

im poor

haughty mural
#

the only thing i have is gold..

#

thats why i last minuted an entropy

lilac stag
#

i didnt try fixing it, but maybe take all your gear off. do a naked lap around Dorm, re-equip and see if it registers the discount

haughty mural
#

on it

lilac stag
#

ima fall over if it works

haughty mural
#

it didnt

lilac stag
#

A for effort

haughty mural
#

was so close

lilac stag
#

did you do gems and enchants?

haughty mural
#

did

#

maybe haste flask

lilac stag
#

ye

haughty mural
#

and wearing the ring on 157

lilac stag
#

you could do the extra haste rings that cut down another stat

uneven scarab
#

Im at 25% haste and i feel like i need way more ngl

lilac stag
#

33 felt like the minimum

#

40 feels like overkill

uneven scarab
#

i gotta get a haste neck

#

thats what im missing tbh

tough solar
#

How big of a DPS increase is a night elf over human? in %

lilac stag
uneven scarab
#

human is more stats no

lilac stag
#

alchemical boosts it up to 44 lol

uneven scarab
#

even though it doesnt matter rofl

hazy breach
#

But generally racials are within 1 - 1.5% of each other. Nelf is typically on the lower end and human tends to be on the higher end during the last season of the expac

lilac stag
#

i didn't try troll racial

#

i should do that on beta

uneven scarab
#

nelf is 1% haste or crit and human is 2% more all secondary

dry plank
#

troll power

lilac stag
#

the lack of footware for the dogs is a turnoff

uneven scarab
#

i believe

hazy breach
#

well human is 2% more stats

uneven scarab
#

yeah

#

Human bis anyways

#

best mogs

dry plank
#

orcs?

#

maghars?

uneven scarab
#

close second

lilac stag
#

orcs getting that pet dmg

dry plank
#

its 1%

lilac stag
#

does the pet dmg work on the clones?

dry plank
#

was 5

uneven scarab

bc they did have some tag

haughty mural

@lilac stag

#

Sectech yes

#

Clones no

uneven scarab
#

makes perfect sense

uneven scarab
haughty mural
#

without the entropy i bought

dry plank
#

what are these stats omg is it with flask and oil?

uneven scarab
#

Are we running secondary wep enchants now or is radiant power still best

lilac stag
#

i did depths

#

tempted to run a 118 OH with Gale

uneven scarab
#

I have one depths one radiant just cuz its what i have

#

i was also tempted to try gale

lilac stag
#

but i got distracted playing UI Dev

haughty mural
#

thats with entropy ring

#

not worth it i think

uneven scarab
#

Think i need to get that haste crit neck

if only DM wasnt a pain in the ass to move

In prepatch no

lilac stag

#

In midnight ye

uneven scarab
#

ye its not really that relevant till midnight

lilac stag
#

on dimy target the adds in p1 and land before the tank so you just delete all of them

haughty mural
#

this crest bug thing really bugs me out extremely

lilac stag
#

you should have forge back for burn

#

and depending on dps you'll get a lily in with a dance

haughty mural
#

well on dimy i could also play prism

#

all the other bosses will rough

shrewd lantern
#

screams seems insanely gamba

#

lmao

lilac stag
#

projector is the way

shrewd lantern
#

yeah never got that one

lilac stag
#

since i was on warrior, i didnt spend any rogue chips

#

was going to buy projector and got it in vault dracthyr_kek

shrewd lantern
#

i got screams since only bought 1 dinar item

#

in season

lilac stag
#

i should buy mythic boots

uneven scarab
#

oh shit lmfao

#

My rogue doesn’t even have boots still

shrewd lantern
#

maybe i get projector in vault

uneven scarab
shrewd lantern
#

some weirdo wanted to buy 6/8

#

so we cleared the whole raid

lilac stag
uneven scarab
#

I completely forgot ngl

#

been playing too much ww/arcane

me thinks thats what im gonna use most of the night

lilac stag

hope you have crests

haughty mural

and just pray for a use of lily

celest mulch
#

So i guess now the hardest part of playing rogue or even sub is finding something to do to keep you entertained during you 123 rotation

hazy breach
#

Theres still some stuff to do

#

You just arent completely fucked if you dont, like in tww

radiant swift
#

what are these things u speak off

shrewd lantern
#

pace is probably decent with these short kill times

celest mulch
#

being positive and optimistic it is going to be nice to focus fully on mechanics

hazy breach
celest mulch
#

like not having to worry about rotational things at all

hazy breach
#

Has a section about it

uneven scarab
#

like i said i hope that last raid is hard as fuck

#

in midnight

celest mulch
uneven scarab
#

otherwise its a zzzz tier

radiant swift
#

oh shit is that new

shrewd lantern
#

Idk what happened but coup doesnt glow when its ready to use

lilac stag
#

worry more about which builder / spender in dance now more than you did in tww peeposhrug

shrewd lantern
#

like it did in tww

lilac stag
shrewd lantern
#

so just spaghetti?

celest mulch
shrewd lantern
#

if i go on something like warrior my rampage still glows

#

if its useable

torn tide
lilac stag
haughty mural
#

i could also do 170

shrewd lantern

170 is no embellish

#

which likely isnt ideal

uneven scarab
torn tide
shrewd lantern
#

I really like how they readded lingering bug

though i mostly been using screams+SH trinket

Helm enchant works as well

shrewd lantern

lilac stag

and cata the belt

sullen hare
#

Yep belt and shoulder cata was free haste

haughty mural
#

dont even need to cata the shoulders poggers

can someone help me on how to get my Reshi Wraps

sullen hare
#

First time or an alt

subtle urchin
#

first time, brand new to the game '

#

someone told me it was from the book in Valdraken. I did some recap thing that skipped me to chapter 14 in the War Within campaign

sullen hare
#

Just on the right as you enter the dornogal main hall with the portals you should see vereesa I think with khadgar etc

#

Absolutely not valdrakken it's in dornogal

There’s about 5 puppets that all need to go

haughty mural
#

thats true.. and i hope they will follow asap

sullen hare
#

Thought crime isn't illegal yet thankfully

lilac stag
#

I wish someone would just leak all the Epstein shit.

sullen hare
#

Burn the shit down

lilac stag
#

like wtf is in there

haughty mural
#

but i doubt we get all the freshest news over here

lilac stag
#

they basically seized tiktok in the states

sullen hare
#

Nothing that is gonna hurt the public is in there outside of scarring them from reading it

#

Are people migrating off of it to rednote or whatever again?

lilac stag
#

I think most are trying to goto substack

sullen hare
#

Isn't substack a paid content platform like patreon and OF?

safe tundra
#

learning sub, is it worth it to just put shadowstrike and backstab on the same button and the only difference is you use one or the other depending on if ur stealthed or not

sullen hare
#

I've never interacted with it

safe tundra
#

or is there a reason to cast backstab while in stealth

sullen hare
#

Yes that's fine

#

You never backstab in SD right now

lilac stag
safe tundra
#

what about eviscerate and shadowstrike?

lilac stag
#

I haven’t messed with it.

safe tundra
#

is it worth it to ever cast eviscerate in stealth

sullen hare
#

Evisc and shadowstrike are fundamentally different spells

uneven scarab
#

thats ur stealth builder yes

safe tundra
#

oh wait im getting mixed up in the names

sullen hare
#

Evisc and coup work that way though

lilac stag
#

be kind to the kitty garf_sit

uneven scarab
#

backstab is only used in 1 target outside of dance to build cp

#

its never used otherwise

safe tundra
#

i meant evis and coup

haughty mural
#

!macro

wicked joltBOT

Subtlety Macros:
Here is a macro to make it easier to fit all of your globals into your Shadow Dances

/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Secret Technique

This can be combines with trinkes and other cooldown use.

/cast Shadow Blades
/cast Blood Fury
/cast Ancestral Call
/use Araz's Ritual Forge
/use Unyielding Netherprism
/use Lily of the Eternal Weave
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Secret Technique
sullen hare
#

Then yes evisc and coup share a button

safe tundra
sullen hare
#

Well you picked one of the easier ones to learn

swift tinsel
#

swapping off feral right as they get trickster passives, bold move dracthyr_kek

uneven scarab
swift tinsel
#

their apex is a literal "copy my homework but don't make it too obvious" lol

uneven scarab
#

oh i saw

safe tundra
uneven scarab
#

and im pissed

#

but its okay

sullen hare
#

As much as I appreciate my feral mains for sharing a cell next to us in suffering prison, anyone improving their mental is always good

safe tundra
#

but im playing rogue in raid since people need the buff

#

well debuff

swift tinsel
#

I was messing around with it a little bit the other day and its not insanely different

#

pretty fun

safe tundra
#

i played sin in s1

#

so its not too big of a jump for me, im just trying to learn sub as well

swift tinsel
#

getting locked into 5cp feels so unnatural though lol

uneven scarab
#

sin is definitely alot closer, sub you have essentially 0 to track now

#

like 0 maintenance buffs

safe tundra
#

lowkey tho sub feels weird because during my "burst" window i just spam finishers half the time, am i playing wrong or is it like that

uneven scarab
#

nope thats the spec

swift tinsel
#

nah that's pretty much the vibe

sullen hare
#

That's pretty typical

swift tinsel
#

you get flooded with cp/shadow techniques stacks

uneven scarab
#

sub’s all about making the most of that window though

swift tinsel
#

so you can effectively just build-spend til dance/blades is over

sullen hare
#

Then it's a little bit of backstab soup but not nearly as bad as tww s3

safe tundra
#

and in this situation id wait for secret technique to be up to use the dance again?

swift tinsel
#

ye with higher dance uptime the soup isn't as watery

safe tundra
#

and then for my bigger burst id align secret technique and blades

#

as well as 2x dances?

uneven scarab
#

yep

safe tundra
#

wow ok

swift tinsel
#

well, you can use dance with it still having a little bit of cd left as long as you supercharge the cast of secret technique

uneven scarab
#

it’s quite simple now

uneven scarab
#

yeah you can go dance->evis->tech

swift tinsel
#

but ye as long as you supercharge secret technique you're stylin

uneven scarab
#

just make sure to always supercharge tech

lilac stag

#

if we get 35% haste for tonight we are vibing ye

swift tinsel
#

me vibing with 20% haste and a dream

lilac stag
#

just wait til you have WF

haughty mural
uneven scarab
#

man…. Thats what ive been missing

#

no wf in keys

#

my shaman hasnt been playing

lilac stag
#

@swift tinsel not being able to hide buff until it’s active on CDC kinda pants

swift tinsel
#

can you at least desaturate them?

#

otherwise that's gross and I hate it

lilac stag
#

Only the utility ones

safe tundra
#

hmm is there a macro i can make that switches the backstab and shadowstrike depending if my dance is up?

swift tinsel
#

ew that sucks

lilac stag
#

Unless I’m missing something.

safe tundra
#

if i use vanish my bar switches so its easy

#

but the dance doesnt change out that button

swift tinsel
#

I have dance/sht/mark always shown but desaturated then DN pops up when it procs

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

since most of them don't have grow from center capabilities

sullen hare
# subtle urchin no f'ing way lmfao

When you're placing a public or personal work order for your pure fiber to put in the cloak buy the cheapest (but not necessarily lowest-quality) versions of the materials you need. There's no quality ranks on the thread item so you just buy whatever is cheapest

swift tinsel
#

^^

safe tundra
#

oh yeah i se

#

see

#

mb

swift tinsel
#

tons of people went for r3 mats and I got so much free shit from Resourcefulness lol

sullen hare
#

I'm still getting hella r3 mats from work orders

swift tinsel
#

idk the last things I've crafted lol

#

think I did a jc ring a few weeks ago

lilac stag
# safe tundra oh yeah i se

There’s a slight delay of backstab to strike, so you can’t effectively macro those together.

You can do stuff like dance + sectech, as we’re trying to make sure we get every cast off possible in dance.

swift tinsel
#

hit 2.5mil gold and haven't done a bit of goblin mode since

sullen hare
#

Shit, someone went out of their way to do a 15k r5 work order for like a belt yesterday

swift tinsel
#

got my profession spreadsheet mostly set for Midnight

#

still debating if i want the AH pricing auto-pull script

sullen hare
#

I'm at 1.3, maybe 1.4. I spent a good bit of it on the cash shop bruto

swift tinsel
#

made close to a million reselling inky black potions lol

#

people will gladly list them for like

#

2.5 gold when they cost 3.3 from the vendor

sullen hare
#

That's a great little bit of money because people are always looking for em

swift tinsel
#

so I've been scooping up tens of thousands for them for pennies lol

#

my bank alt has so many tabs just full of them lol

#

got kinda spoiled with nexus king and eco dome

#

since they're pretty choice there

safe tundra
#

im getting some weird overlap, not sure what this is im ngl

swift tinsel
#

duration

sullen hare
#

It's stack count and duration

safe tundra
#

looks like deathstalkers mark but idk how to fix it

swift tinsel
#

are you using an addon for cooldown manager?

#

most should allow stack text moving

sullen hare
#

What addon are you using? If unhalted you can config those

safe tundra
#

yeah im using better cooldown maanger

#

manager

#

might switch tho im ngl

swift tinsel
#

ah yeah should be able to move the stack text to where you want, and/or shrink duration text

safe tundra
#

i dont rlly like it

sullen hare
#

I don't know bcdm settings but look for Auras settings

swift tinsel
#

bcdm is pretty stripped-down which is convenient but lacks a lot of the features of others like tweaksUI:cd or arc ui

#

they all have their share of bugs or quirks though, which are hopefully getting ironed out in the weeks leading up to midnight

#

Arc UI is arguably able to do the most, but is more tedious to set up, TweaksUI:Cooldowns is less complicated but will sometimes re-order your cooldowns which can be fixed by /reload-ing a few times usually

rare sedge
#

is there a bug atm that shadowstrike is not applying deathstalker? had it twice in a row on bosses now

safe tundra
#

for sub in raid , if we're on a hybrid fight, how does our builder/spenders work?

#

is it rlly shuriken storm? i feel like in 3+ targets shadowstrike generates more combo points for me

subtle urchin
# subtle urchin Ty king

do you have to continue the questline to upgrade, im as hashim and theres nothing there to upgrade

#

but he has a bar under him now that says "ethereal strands owned: 0/15"

uneven scarab
valid turtle
#

Shadow blades before dance/tech? Or does it not really matter

hazy breach
#

Before sectech

#

Dance + blades order is irrelevant

#

But anything that gives haste wants to be used before dance

meager coyote
#

the ss at full cp optimisaion seems kinda cringe

hazy breach
#

Its likely getting nuked

west tide
#

my guild will never full clear again guys

meager coyote
#

there's pretty much no more going into dance without full cp is there?

#

due to the dance+sectech macro

vale pine
#

i am fairly certain its changed too

#

blizz does not like gameplay thats not obviouse

hazy breach
meager coyote
hazy breach
#

You dont

meager coyote
#

would be cool if that minmax wasn't good anymore

#

so that's nice news

hazy breach
#

Its probably storm+dance macro then instead

meager coyote
hazy breach
#

So even though it might be worse, not having the delay is probably better

warm marlin
#

the real question is when is fazed getting made into a self buff too

meager coyote
hazy breach
#

In sims its slightly worse to use storm instead of strike

#

But the sim can use dance+strike immediately, ingame we cant do that

#

And every 0.1s delay inbetween dance and your next spell is worth like -0.3% dps

#

And anything below 0.2 is insanely hard to do manually

#

So the dance+storm macro might be better anyway, despite simming lower

vale pine
meager coyote
chrome palm
hazy breach
#

Obviously depends exactly on your haste

#

If your dance is 6.8 seconds long then theres no rush

warm marlin
#

long hail buffs

hazy breach
#

But ideally it should be 6.2 (or 6.4 as trickster)

chrome palm
#

or make fazed the rogue parry raid buff 🫃

meager coyote
#

I might be doing something wrong

#

or do u mean on next xpac? kekw

hazy breach
#

Well thats with first dance

meager coyote
#

o ye tru

warm marlin
uneven scarab
#

dude yes

#

RESIST IS GONE JUST REMOVE PARRY

hazy breach
#

I didnt mean it must be 6.2, i meant it more as X.2

warm marlin
#

@hazy breach the usage of blades and dance in these sims deeply upsets me btw

hazy breach
#

and x.4 etc

warm marlin
#

i know its a loss to make the check longer than 7s but im getting a headache seeing the robot dance at 1:20 and delay blades by 13s

#

wthelly

strange cedar
#

Is there some helpful stuff about the opener for sub plebs like me?

hazy breach
#

Ye ik

meager coyote
hazy breach
#

But it didnt seem better to force it at 1:30

warm marlin
#

idk its weird because realistically are people going to hold blades for 1:44 like that

#

even in patchwerk

#

average joe is not gonna know his killtime to the tee to know to send the dance at 1:20

hazy breach
#

Well the delay is better even without factoring in kill times right

#

On average

warm marlin
#

yes on a 20% variance around 5mins

#

presumably the gain from the extra dance value on longer (or shorter) fights outweighs the loss of a blades usage on some iterations but its still cursed me no like

hazy breach
#

Yep

#

What if we go puzzlebox and delay it to 2 min

#

(that seems not worth, but who knows)

warm marlin
#

it's already in the oven buddy

swift tinsel
#

dying inside just reading that

warm marlin
#

maghar gang abusing the 2min timer once again

hazy breach
#

the profile i linked is dwarf i think

warm marlin
#

ye

swift tinsel
#

can't make a Maki transmog so I'm sticking with morc for now

hazy breach
#

Dwarf was very strong in aoe

warm marlin
#

im thinking maghar could be doomed

#

if you roll haste it seems bad

hazy breach
#

Regular orc is fine

meager coyote
#

just pick a roleplay race guys it's an rpg :(

warm marlin
#

unless you get to a point where haste is your 3rd highest stat

#

maghar seems really really doomed

#

like you're not gonna gear around hitting an extra gcd breakpoint 50% of the time on 50% of your blades usages

hazy breach
#

I dont think its that hard to have it be your third stat

warm marlin
#

you can manipulate it with the haste trinket obv

#

hopefully macroing in the right order will work

hazy breach
#

But during progress it might be rougher as youll have lower ilvl

#

Anyway can just go regular orc

#

Is probably better first tier either way

distant sage
#

how do you guys like the lobotomy of the spec, i was really doom and gloom about it but its not that awful tbh

warm marlin
#

I am trying to avoid a race change but i suppose it could be inevitable

#

especially since i think it will go back to maghar

Feels the same (when refunds come back)

Or something else

Double coup was kinda the saving grace ngl yeah

#

Felt good

hazy breach
#

Like velfing out of mugzee cages

empty plume
#

subtlety is a 2 button baby spec

#

feels like garbage

#

bring back rupture, or something idk

warm marlin
#

they missed grip like once on me

#

easy peasy

left ledge
#

There’s one thing I absolutely don’t understand though about the trimming of the spec

hazy breach
#

Ye i didnt go velf either

#

But a lot did

left ledge
#

Why is goremaw still there

hazy breach
#

Was just an example of "needing" a racial

left ledge
#

Like actually

#

How the fuck did goremaw make it

uneven scarab
#

ive been saying the same shit man

#

Unreal

warm marlin
#

i assume thats why

uneven scarab
#

aint no way

#

Spell sucks

distant sage
#

ye thats just dead idk why they dont just make a into a buffed up evis

hazy breach
#

Make it so you can use a sectech independently of its cooldown after goremaw garf

left ledge
#

We need some capstone doing something with clones

swift tinsel
#

ngl that'd be pretty banger

winter moon
#

i need a poison weak aura...i keep forgetting to apply!

left ledge
#

None of them do any clone stuff no?

uneven scarab
#

about 100x better than current goremaw for sure

#

Yeah agreed

#

Capstone relating to clones would be cool

warm marlin
#

make goremaw make your next 3 finishers cost no combo points so you can sit at full cp anyway and proc your apex talent

hazy breach
#

And goremaw has 100% chance to proc weaponmaster

left ledge
empty plume
#

I think sub needs 1 more gameplay element to be fun, this version is not fun

left ledge
#

The return

hazy breach
void nebula
#

Why do we go into Dance with low CP? Wouldn't we want the first GCD in Dance to be a max CP finisher?

left ledge
#

I’m thinking of the combo points

empty plume
#

also haste dance duration is cringe

left ledge
#

Haste dance is whatever

hazy breach
#

In what way was what i said in any way related to marked for death

left ledge
#

On a cd

hazy breach
#

Wat

left ledge
#

If it procs wm always

#

It always gives 6 cp

distant sage
#

like the timings still need to be on point for the spec to work i feel like, the somewhat real skill expesion is in saving coupe if you can for blades so you can get it twice in blades and for ds chessing mark with vanish or dance(cuz to my knowledge there is no point in popping it in aoe)

hazy breach
#

Wm doesnt give more cp

left ledge
#

Oh

hazy breach
#

Bro get on with the times

left ledge
#

They changed it

hazy breach
#

It spawns a clone

left ledge
#

Right

swift tinsel
left ledge
#

Sry bro I just react

#

I press button

#

If condition is met

#

I press the other button

uneven scarab
#

tbh i like this version of wm better but it doesnt seem super good

hazy breach
#

It is

uneven scarab
#

Oh okay dope

hazy breach
#

Especially during prepatch for some reason

#

Its doing like 2-3x the damage it should

#

No clue why

#

Its not doing that on beta

uneven scarab
left ledge
#

Hmmm

#

Sounds like we should nerf sub rogue

distant sage
#

yes make sec tec 45s and give it +5%dmg

uneven scarab
#

i would cry

lilac stag
warm marlin
#

btw @hazy breach the robot can send dance without enough energy to finish and just waste a gcd omegalul , this shouldnt be related to anything I did

Are most of playing trickster? I’ve been playing DS lately and I’ve been loving it. If you prefer trickster over DS I’d love to know why

hazy breach
#

Mark stinky

vale pine
#

for single target, deathstalker is better tho

soft summit
#

I hear that about mark but it’s actually not that hard. Every 3 finishers you can swap targets.

While I got you here im just wondering do I stop using mark after a certain amount of mobs?

misty compass
#

Guys, has anyone notice that sometimes while shd Shadow Strike the UI of CP show not 6 instantly but 2 and only 0,5–1 sec after 6 or am I tripping?

plush roost
#

I noticed on beta that happens as well, i wonder if it has to do with sensei resource bars

#

I had it take half a second to update my cp like 6 times in a row during cds

#

That was quite the underwhelming burst

vale pine
#

could be a bug too

plush roost
#

Yeah with sht

vale pine
#

we had delayed cp gain in the past

plush roost
#

Im not sure

#

Hard to tell when everything can get chalked up to beta lag

warm marlin
#

yall need wangbar

swift tinsel
#

anecdotally felt more noticeable when I was using sensei

#

with and without the smoothing

warm marlin
#

sensei has cp lag, was mostly confirmed in outlaw channel

swift tinsel
#

ye

#

seeing sensei vs wangbar vs bcm or whatever else he was comparing to was kinda funny

vale pine
#

i use better cooldown maanger

#

i haven't noticed a lag

warm marlin
#

or this one

#

(this is after spending)

swift tinsel
# warm marlin

were you able to bring the cp bar and energy bar closer together or is that just bc they're both taller than the setting I'm using

warm marlin
#

thats from awang

swift tinsel
#

yeah

warm marlin
#

i havent done any ui work

swift tinsel
#

there's a notable gap between them for me

and can't adjust that in settings
