unless the community is brainrotted thinking shroud is mandatory
like in bfa
for even lower keys
heard that one lol
with them adding truesight everywhere shroud value is wayyyyy down
Well bfa dungeon counts were fucked too
tbh shroud was really nice to have in early days of m+
You never used it in legion
also many pug tanks aren't gonna wanna learn 2 routes for rogue vs non-rogue comp
mostly bfa
whats a route
my pug route is hold w

my pug route is I hold S.

ye routes are literally lust lust lust time it
idk boss before trash has never been attempted yet
as far as i can tell 
i hate m+ streamers
guarantee when some pug tank does some cooked ass pull
it was because some streamer did it
that's not the streamers fault
well big momma is right there i guess
that's the pugs fault for being an idiot
Thinking back to.. uh. DF S2? When we had Underrot. And the MDI happened. And people did INSANE pulls up to first boss, right?
💀
And then every pug I joined, even like, +5's, were trying to do it
Pugs are just stupid
It was really funny
How often did someone get frontaled by the boss
They never made it to the boss
Do you know how many times I had a brain dead pug tank do some dogshit Ele route because “they timed it on 22 with this”?
You'd wipe way before that
With no Ele in group
Big fan of a +3 trying to do the candle king stair skip, too
And losing more time failing it than they would've just fighting the trash
idk the gap between a 16 and an 18 felt pretty good except on priory
lmao every group insisted tht stair jump was mandatory
then i watch someone fail it
and bodypull the pack
something about the healer check after a boss fight was diabalical lmao
Shock, shame
A big thing you find at lower key levels, esp with newer or inexperinced players, is that. Or they bodypull and run away.
Instead of running to the tank
my 13th reason
running all across god's green earth
they don't stack on kill targets without coms too
You do a huge pull. Everyone is on the stack. Except the mage. Who is standing at MAXIMUM RANGE.
its not so bad if its just one but if its a pack its rip
And then the pack charges.
yeah I wish I had tank lifegrip I stg
tirna scythe ranged getting munched on that first pull
lol
aha
ye unless there's a reason not to be stacked or even nearby its kinda wild
yeah
the mage terrorist blink
ahaha
nah watching ranged in siege of boralus flub the first boss wasn't nearly as funny though
omg
having to wait 5-8 minutes to see if that why your key depleted was cringe
marble brained kiting
ye troll ranged early lol
Didnt saw the channel earlier
No worries
Big question, I was using the weakauras for Tricks to tank automatically is there something like that or may I create a macro like it was done before?
you can macro it
if you have your party frames sorted by role
like /cast [@party1] Tricks
Like @party1 and those commands?
I actually do have one for our holy paladin lol
ye exactly
Tricks the mage. They have no defensives.
Always the mages, got it
why does DS want to SD at low CP but Trickster want to SD at high?
trickster wants to use sec tech as soon as possible to get stacks of flawless from unseens
in DS it is whatever
but there may be other reasons
i wouldnt worry about what is good for ds you wont be playing it in midnight
and doing low-cp dances isnt going to make a world of different in prepatch content
Just don’t play deathstalker
Kekw
i dont think its clear why they prefer different things
Shall we come back to trickster?
yea ds was ahead because there was a bugged talent kinda
i mean do you wanna get gapped by 50% or by 48% from a DDH in prepatch
We never left
thats the choice you have, one of them is just significantly more annoying to play
now they are almost the same everywhere or trickster is better in midnight
That hits hard tho xD
and after the storm for unseen fix
they have almost the same prio too
now if they buff deathstalker we are donezo tho
If you want to int and play deathstalker with idk tea. Have fun.
maybe they do the tww thing where they keep DS bad on purpose
because they wont rework it
just in case before a dungeon duel a paladin and make them bubble
so you can enjoy not having mark
until you log off and then in again
My dream is zero DS play by both sub & assa
assa will probably fuck it up
sub and assa have diff numbers in ds for a while i think
for assa/outlaw its really funny
dont think even blizz keeps track
your choice in hero talent is: one that gives you extra resources and more movement vs janky annoying hero talent thats starved for energy/cp and cant target swap well
on both specs
Even for ST are we goin to use Trickster? I mean there's lots of rogues using DS
Yes. They’re close enough
it was like 10% when i simmed it last so thats interesting
deathstalker is preferred in raid but the 1st best trinket determines where you end up on meters tbh
Not aiming for prepatch when we doin freaking love fool's event tho xD
yeah I didn’t deep dive into it but tried the two and FI vs CB
Do u guys have the talents code of ST and M+s of trickster tho?
black powder is still kinda jank since you need 3 in cds to justify it
it's a weird and goofy thing to get hung up on
buh
@chrome palm I’ll leak the DMs 
its not a secret
its !sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I know. It just sounds funny to me.
the before after patch sims
just don't assume its a perfect sim, i just re-simmed for the talent change
needed the 8% aura nerf krappa
we still have rly good cooldown alignment on the last 2 fights
too bad, nerfs might make this irrelevant
pirate time lfg
wont ever catch me playing pirate my hands are too slow for that
yeah we are gutter for rest of prepatch just log in for your participation trophy and get carried to victory
if you ask in outlaw
theyll tell you its slower than sin now
ye i became unc status 3 years ago
anyone have beta numbers with apex talents?
🧢
You know the ApM for sub and gunslinger are relatively close.
gunslinger hahaha
are some dungeons bugged rn?
stop ruining my predetermined ideas
i have to send a 20 floodgate now
Numbers for what
priory's last boss seems to not give a shit if i look away from blinding light or not
It makes it sound more fun. Again for my own entertainment purposes.

just cloak it 4head
wait until you find out what cloak does on beta in half the dungeons
lmfao fair but i think she does it more frequently than my cloak's cd
is it nothing? or everything lmao
xdd
you press cloak and still take ticking shadow damage rlly cool
but its okay guys rogues fine
they bugfix surely
"I mean how does a cloak just protect you from everything?" - Blizzard, 2026
xD
Ain't no way
i have tried cloak on 2 different heal absorbs and it did nothing both times
Yeah
Very common for cloak to be bugged as hell in keys
well it does nothing on the paladin boss in raid too from when it ested
That was kinda op for normal people
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
cloak on flood would miss the boss mines occasionally
that might be a 1s thing
sheetcret
but it seemed like netcode issue
wee still kinda stacked on bugs
Cloak almost never works against ground effects in keys for some reason
Sub guide says "We shift to a multi-target priority at 3 targets," but then unde AOE it says "Start using Aoe spells with 2 or more targets."
So do we AOE spells in 2 or 3 targets? lol
they need to whitelist many things now
They'll be fixing bugs till Last Titan, of course the last one would be the cloak one
remember several situations cloak gets funny
i've swapped my bp button from shift+z to 2 
and it is like my wrist pain has gone away
bp will always be alt 4 for me
immune to magic > removes debuff > 
what do you press alt with your thumb or ring fingy or something else
thumb
ring finger wtf
how have u been playing it with shift+z
mine is T
id like to think i have regular keybinds but then my friends tell me im psycho for using alt+shift as a modifier for some things
tbh I use them too
Being able to comfortably press shift + z is a sign of utmost discernment
Control/Shift/Alt as modifiers tho
far beyond that of the layman
i dont think i'd use alt+shift as a modifier itself
maybe for something i rarely pressed if i absolutely needed a bind maybe
my kick used to be alt shift 1 and blind was alt shift 2
ok well
then i moved it to m5
Yoink
thats a little cursed
F is my mouseover set focus
my kick is alt+2 which is not exactly ideal but ive done it for too long to change now
My alt-2 it's our beloved Cloak
The one who does nothing in Midnight, that's it
big hands i guess i can reach 7 np
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Oh ma gawd
I can barely reach 5
So I play around 1 2 3
Also playing on a Blackwidow hits hard tho
i cant stand razer stuff
The only alt keybind you need is alt-f4 when you realize blizzard just fucking with us

true
some of us are just here for the love of the game to see how it ends
or playing valve games just press f10 lol
Gimme arc StarCraft now please
didnt they say theyre working wit hnexon
there are still starcraft tornies
for a starcraft shooter
They are.
that sounds cursed
monsterous fingers
theyre getting there
I think you know how it ends
the cinematic was so cool and then i got on to so many bugs lmfao
so uhhh is anyone elses sim way more than an 8% loss after patch? i was simming 34k and some change and am now simming 28100 lol
Either your old sim was from before they did bugfixes or the bugfixes was never applied to prepatch raidbots
Either way its kinda whatever as the expanions is coming out in 2 weeks
Ya lost 3 talent points essentially as well
surely the stuff gets fixed before that
yeah i know we lost the talent points. but its like 19% loss lmao.
34k sim was from sunday also. just seems wild
Probably not
yea i should probably start accepting that fact
but hey atleast we'll be able to play with apexes
I'm surprised they didn't brick the whole Strike with Full CP for Apex thing yet
8% from nerf, ~6% from precise killer fix, ~4% from no CB
Makes sense
Its a minor thing, there was a bug in simc that made it look insane
But its like +0.5% or something
I think stat scaling with ilvl adjusted as well
oh that's not so bad then
Ye maybe, because the precise killer thing shouldve been in a while ago
But idk
i lost like 10 haste and am not on 35% anymore 
thats like one gem
I have to look at logs to see what I was at last week
yeah, but where is it gone to?
For some reason it seems like weaponmaster strikes are still bugged and doing way more than they should on the prepatch, despite that not being the case on beta

Pretty much starting to look like rogue for raid and dk for m+ pushing lol.
Just dk both
wait, didn't mana oil give 15 haste per application?
Im the only dude in my guild that rogues. so Im stuck in it zzzz
Go recruit someone from assa
Subs gonna be fine in keys too, as long as you play with a shaman
Its not like theyre gonna stop and never do any more tuning now
wasnt rogue some comp with rsham, war, monk etc anyways? like the meele comp
ok, log from yesterday says i had 370 haste, now its 356
Yeah, but trying to push rank 1 as a pug rogue is already insanely hard... let alone when they kinda bricked
nah, the one pos of playing rogue in my guild is ill never get sat because im the only one
o push rank 1 as a non-meta pug rogue is already insanely hard... let alone when they kinda bricked
If you want to pug title you have to either be very stubborn or reroll to fotm
Thats just how it is, and how its always been
are we still using vers flask or haste flask
every log i looked at showed at least 330 haste and 100 extra agi which i figured was a trinket
lmao trust me i know, i go through it every season. Last season i got title was season 1 dragonflight when outlaw was super strong in pugs
But idk rogue was good throughout tww
Both s1 and s2 rogue was like the 4th best spec, slightly worse in s3 though
idk gear is just whatever they decided to roll need on before prepatch
The weapon embellishment on beta is just the dagger right? No 1h?
Yes
yeah i pushed 3200 s1 and 3450 s2. it just gets to a point you stop getting invited if you arent meta spec.. and sitting in lfg for hours gets old for a single inv then so dummy bricking the key 1st pull
i mean after a point you should really be networking
I pugged s1 and most of s2
adding people who are good
@tribal blade found you a new friend
yea remember when people are classist
you can always become the classist
me when i only invite shaman warriors druids and dhs/monks
But like, theres no way of knowing what spec is gonna be the best right now
Because theyll just do some random tuning and flip everything on its head anyway
mages? never heard of em
DS Assa 
Haha for sure. I have a ton of people on the friends list... but sadly most rank 1s look and like oh you playing rogue again. we dont want that 🤣
What still has defensives? DK, Sub Rogue, …?
mages get to enjoy only having block like god intended
the graphs will look funny first raid
hacha implying most pressed anything else
ignore the code of conduct reminder make calls from the chest
99% of the time
I’ll be enjoying life if tanky DPS ends up as 1% meta
it's definitely there this season because they're worried about raging from discerning players
DHs are still fairly tanky, just no immunity
Hunter should be decent still
If they play dark ranger for sure
was nether even that strong
do they still have turtle and 2x sotf
i always felt havoc was better at rot damage than big hits
well kinda hard for sv to play ranger
I mean sometimes
Better to have options than to not have options
need to have blade dance grant iframes for skill
the missed count* ele sham is worth 3 of us in a 21 at 30m and you're sending 5 paladins and a caster after a boss
we're in a 17 ;y
we had multiple seasons you could push title on rogue, it was just way worse for the last xpac
Surv is pretty tanky atm
Did you figure it what you’re playing?
Rogue main dh alt
As great as unholy looks and sounds the gameplay itself isn’t enough to carry the fantasy for me
I’ve just been really enjoying Inertia havoc
peak combo
And getting Bigger Beam and double blade dance has been quite fun on beta
Devourer is my shit now
With the small buffs for Deathstalker and the small nerfs for Trickster, is Trickster still better for Aoe? or do you need to go deathstalker all the time for M+?
that was my combo too but i have too little time to go learn new dh stuff
What if we can do double non lethal poisons again and buff poisons and/or add some new ones?
devourer is very fun. intertia on the other hand... this man a psycho that shit is awful
When i do the double dance-blades opener with 35% haste and chain the two dances directly togheter, the second sectec will be my 3rd finisher in dance, because it has like 5 seconds left on its cd. Is that just normal or do you wait a little bit with the second dance charge?
even tho its probably mind numbing 3 buttons
What can I say I like burst damage windows
same i love a good burst. but inertia feels so awful gameplay wise imo for a burst window
i was wondering the same thing
What’s inertia
Havoc mover build
Momentum?
Idk other one I haven’t looked at havoc dh talents in a LONG time
i like how devour does with suffering. getting the buff after void rey
a while ago they split it up
Does anyone know this?
yeah
Trickster apparently is best in all scenarios other than prio damage
But you lose a lot of overall for the prio
they also basically turned Essence Break into Lash so its just damage when you Chaos Strike or Blade Dance
We never went DS EVER
Oh wow
Like perma?
Or you put it on still
where the fuck is the DS stuff coming from?
pvpers prob
they always play ds
its still a 40sec cd
What asshat YouTuber put out some shit short
Ooh ok
also people might be asking bc they buffed DS aoe
Better defensives
ye
0 + 0 still 0
Hey DS had potential for like
yeah but not everyone knows that lol
One patch
Sounds like outlaw
Hotfix nerf DS by -6% without any notes
Hey lads heres a +1% buff, surely its good now right?

in classic blizz fashion 
Also curious to this
unironically black powder should be an outlaw/gunslinger spell
Nothing more subtle than throwing gunpowder in a circle
For me by the way, it is that at some point I use the second or third sectec in the dance, and not with the blue empowered combo points - is that normal?
That is what we call in the biz, a mistake.
is there any good cdm looks like we used to have for WA's?
turns out it was Arc UI itself that was turning off the CDM cooldown text, did a fresh install and fixed it
I may actually release mine if I stick with it
gonna wait til I have more time to get all 3 done
I'm sticking with it until the WA replacement eventually comes around
right now it just blows everything else away
ye
and also has a lot of features in the Options that just aren't implemented yet which clutters the space
the center fill stuff is there now too
yeah, the Dynamic Group options were a really nice addition
having specific spaces saved for certain spells that you may or may not have specced into for st vs aoe for example would make things kinda weird
you can still do that as well
ye the centering just makes it look not bad finally
I need to sort out where I want defensives and movement if I’m doing a release. Folks won’t nec like where I’ve got it haha
would DS be goated if you could trigger DN with BP?
(DN as in Darkest Night, not Deez Nuts. Just to clarify)
deez nutz > anything deathstalker mark in current game
just ignore it
Like blizzard
I have them below Essential but kinda want to put defensives by HP and stuns/sprint/etc stay below
idk
there is no saving it
I’ve got one idea but I have to play with it.
thanks for the reply king
nah keep DS in the dirt
needs like a full rework for sub no cap
ever since the nimble change, our 2 target just feels so fucking bad man
for it to even be enjoyable
Sadly our best thematic hero talents is god fucking awful
I also need to configure my Better Ability Timeline setup
I just went with DBM since the beta has audible cues
I had the WA exactly perfect so I gotta see how close I can get to that again lol
also need to adjust Target Cast Bar in UUF
that’s easy enough
The ability to have colored friendly names in an instance was a bliz 🇼
have non-target alpha down a bit, and casting alpha cranks it up and increases size a bit
I’ve been lazy and just using Jundies
i haven't changed my jundies in 5 days
I used Jundies as the foundation and have been tweaking as I see fit
is that bad, chat?
very happy with how they've turned out
its just so fucking easy to configure
with the live preview Designer tab
He released an update yesterday
enemy healthbar turns purple when they cast at me, else i don't care 
One of the few discords I have notifications on for. lol
ah ye I have the cast bar itself change color lol
maybe purple isn't a good idea with midnight being purple too
castbar just changes if it is interruptable or not
ye I have that too
had some mages with pvp on at the prepatch event and i get pvp flagged when i use sectec, wierd that i can't see buffs/debuffs/cc on ther plate like on normal mobs
jundies plates are kinda goated
that poor mage was my testsubject, but i couldn't get it to work for enemyplayers, maybe i need to activate the blizz default shit for friendly players?
hello guys , wowhead build talents updated with today patch ?
Yes
Hello there, witch talent for mono plz ? (some build of wowhead is old and doesnt work)
In raid 🙂
what did we take with the talent point ? (thank you)
Whatever you wnat
ty
If you want to make zero decisions
best plan thank you
I mean the utility point doesnt matter
Since you already probably take the "useful" utility nodes of stealth movespeed and iron stomach
I didn’t take iron before
no one did i think?
I’m sure someone did
the stock build had it iirc
does dance+stec not work for deathstalker? the macro
It does
It works just fine
Its just better to start dances at low cp as deathstalker
But might aswell start playing trickster
yeah its just fake mythic reclears so im running full st setup but i wonder just now since u want to start low cp
u dont want to dance + stec anyway no>?
not that it realy matters in prepatch
even in st?

it wasn't Maaaaaaasque my guy
I know. Just a fyi
thats sick anyway to import that?
Is sub dead with current tuning?
!FUU
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
but in line with other specs
that while still being good on the last 2 fights
tho a 8%+ nerf means
subtlety will be more towards the middle, instead of the top now
it already was at the lower end of the top performers
balance wise, the change makes not much sense for level 80
but 
it honestly didn't even make much sense for 90
in no way was sub overpeforming in keys
i can get behind the logic
they fixed dps bugs
and then implemented nerfs
so it keeps the power level to the one before
however, question is, if the "before" level is a good place to be in
got a question for macro setup on sub, so if i use deathstalker i use a dance + fok macro and if i use trickster i use another macro for dance + sectech?
Isn’t sub one of the worst st performers now?
There's more to this video game than Sim st patchwork dps
wow really? 🤦🏻♂️
Yes theres also sim st patchwerk 4 minute!
Cmon fellas lets login to classic and simulate ourselves against patchwerk!
Patchwerk Live-minute
as sub vs soulhunter i spend with BP ?
im always down to simulate myself

oh simulate
Well if you look at the Tier we just had, sub had "terrible single target" but was one of the hard carry specs especially on the later encounters, both for its high aoe burst and its st damage
The game has a lot more complexity than "who sims the best"
!ui
Subs profile has changed a little bit, the 90s is a bit weaker than in s3 but every individual dance is stronger
lost 4k dps from yesterday to today with sim xd
Hey guys! Can someone explain the coming apex talents like I have 0 IQ?
it is a Forbidden Jutsu
1st One: When you spent Shadow Techniques stacks, you have a % chance per stack consumed to spawn a clone that replicates that attack for 50% dmg
2nd One: Increases shadow damage, clones (should) grant energy and ShT stack
3rd One: If, when consuming Shadow Techniques stacks with a builder, you have 5 or more left over, your next finisher will refund combo points to allow another finisher (similar to how Shadowcraft refunds worked in TWW)
Thanks
if it works on sth spent so on builders how is it possible to force it to replicate a finisher?
and we get a neato spell alert now to tell you when your next finisher
or is that a diffrent mechanic?
sub was nerfed today?
because it takes the stacks and 'expends' them
or is spent ment spent spent and not filled
which triggers the first apex
i see
you can strike/bs/storm at max cp with 5+ stacks to force the finisher clone proc
so it doesn't require your cp to be spent and then refilled to trigger
i was about to say 50% per cp
means always forceable?
thats just a fuxked mechanic ngl
you get a metric fuckton of stacks in cooldowns
so u permaforce?
you can if you want, supposedly its +0.5% gain
cant wait to press a builder on max cp
strike-evisc-strike-evisc etc instead of strike-evisc-evisc
then you have more stacks
doesnt point 3 mean i cant fall below bcs it refills me all the time?
you pretty much get so many stacks you can't spend them fast enough
hope there will be an explain section
lol
I mean you replace them fast enough that you effectively don't
uh so i just came back and now we cant even use any weak auras i guess? Is there any way to see combo points central to the screen / way to add an indicator that im in dance/sub windows
bad Moroes
ty
can use Wangbar or SenseiClassResourceBar for cp addon
Wangbar is for the people though
use the command in outlaw channel
recommend it
and there are some
ah nice
wangbar op
was messing around on outlaw the other day and saw I still have Dreadblades on my action bar lol

Sorry, Not Pre-Midnight Shadow Blades
Do you guys track stacks of Shadow technique? Is that going to be a thing at 90?
Yeah that's what I thought, no no Im good lol.

At this state of the pre patch. If you had to make a tier list difficulty for every spec and class since the rework, where would you put the new sub for « gameplay » and « mastery » ?
I remember a lot of people were saying rogue in general and mainly sub was in a S tier difficulty (maybe it was also for PvP) but now what is your opinion ^^
i think putting it into a tier is a bit reductive, its hard
sub is definitely easier to master but still very fun and retains what made it cool
That was before they removed all the things that made it hard xd
but at the very least, sub is very easy to understand now
the majority of the complexity behind sub was removed
Almost the entirety of it was muscle memory though I feel
Besides understanding the opener
As soon as you understood the opener you understood sub I feel
the optimazation do be a fuckery tho
would be nice if it gets fixed (if it can)
yeah the difficulty floor was high
but once you got it, it was so chill
sub has basically no optimizations in prepatch so it is extremely easy
Sub wasn't difficult, imo. Sub was complex and requiered learning a few rules and quirks.
Once you did, it wasn't difficult at all and was pretty rote, esp once you then learned boss timings on top of it
in beta the gameplay remains easy but the optimizations are extremely unintuitive and rather impactful
ngl playing with prism doesnt make it better either
i feel like it does line at all
like im always waiting on smth
Legit. In the very end I felt like fury was harder purely due to the amount of buttons you had to press + it’s way more reactive
I completely zoned out on sub
yeah exactly
peak 20 seconds of just afk auto attacking
then do your damage
then back to chilling
Also didn’t feel like committing warcrimes when losing uptime on sub like I do on fury
(Except on Stix but that’s because his of his ball timers)
Guess it was mostly because of pvp
Hiiiii fimb
did tww3 sub have much less uptime on dance?
didnt u guys have some sort of cds rolling all the time?
slightly less than beta i guess
you were in dance for like 45s or something in opener
Dance uptime is similar to s3
i feel like im constantly atleast in dance
But since its shorter you are casting it more often
Dance cd was like 22.5-23
it was more condensed though
you mean waiting on dance for blades?
waiting on cds was basically what made sub difficult in terms of dps specs
the difference was you had a lot more flexibility in when you used dance and secret technique
you wouldnt lose damage by holding them for some time
so it was simple to line them up to blades
you would only use dance like 3-4 times per every cast of blades
even when sending on cd it doesnt feel like stuff is lining up well
and you used symbols and secret technique with every dance
for blades you would basically just want to make sure you had like 1 charge and ~30-35s on recharge of dance, and 1 charge and ~10-12s on recharge of symbols, and secret technique at ~9s before using flagellation (other 90s cd before blades)
but the idea keeps being the same? stack as many stuff as possible
in blades you would rapidly get dance and secret back up because of combo point cdr
hold as little as possible
you could hold more
yeah this - is ofc missing now
so secret used to have like a 55s cd
lets say in m+
you have blades at 20s but everything else is up
if you used dance/symbols/secret to finish off a pack, you could have everything back up by the time blades was back up
because you would have a lot of cdr in dance
a better example would be like soulbinder for raid
you would use dance on every set of cage pops
it didnt matter if you held secret technique for 10s or so
but how do i know this
you get told it here
theres so many variatons
and stuff happening
or do you run so many constant groups u get to figure it out by trying?
most people raid in a guild, and during mythic prog youre basically following a script until you get it right
you have a general idea of how often you can use dance, and you would be able to adjust it to some degree based on the fight
that was part of subtlety's strength
or you just go on lorrgs and copy what someone else is doing
intresting
the way i thought about it is that a regular flag+blades on a single target is 1 dollar
you get 1 every 90s
especialy the degree because when thinking of it, the general idea is always as much as possible when possible
yeah exactly
delaying for trinkets like forge
the thing you are holding
so sometimes if u wait u get more value
but sometimes u lose the entire thing if u wait
has to varrant the time holding + the usage
so u just have to get the most dollar
seems like a lot of testing
easiest way is after a pull just ask if there were any chances to get more value than single target blades on cd every time
figuring out which combination when
they are usually pretty obvious (adds/amps)
the combination is always the same
but sometimes it can be because of a 2 min trinket or killtime or bosses being stacked
but basically never lose a usage of blades unless the value of the blades you gain by doing so is at least worth 2 dollars (some dimensius push times are an example of this being true)
youre not doing something totally different for each fight
also examples in fights like soulbinder
doing flag blades and hitting all the monsters when all the canisters open is worth way more than 2 dollars in this example
\o
no def makes sense - i always think of m+ because raid seems way more straightforward
its kinda whatever in m+ tbh because theres always something to do damage to its not like youre waiting for an add spawn
sometimes its very sensitive (difference between 3:30 and 3:55 killtime last season meant entirely different cd timings and trinket loadouts)

3:30 you go
opener w/ lily -> 90s w/ lily -> 3m with 18 stack prism
3:55 you go
opener w/ ritual forge -> 2min with ritual forge -> 3:30 with 18 stack prism
prob fun part figuring all that out
so you can guess wrong on killtime and get punished
im a coward and chose to not gamble if i was ever unsure hehe
but some people choose to risk it and try and win big
is prob more fun when it works
i always find myself in a situation where it doesnt feel right to send
esp m+
stuff is somehow always half dead
but you can come to this conclusion from first principles by trying to just maximize the usage number and the value (in terms of trinkets/adds/amps/etc) of your blades casts
its fun in prog because its always consistent
unless someone giga procs or something
thats basically it theres no other secret
you know when you get to burst
yeah raid is largly a dance that you repeat over and over again
are you supposed to always holding shadow dance for when sectec is off CD?
will def be fun to prog mythic
and u can always look on lorrgs for refrences
but i wanna be that good that i can figure it out myself
you can

if you copy someone just ask yourself why theyre doing what theyre doing
if you can figure that out then you can learn to figure it out on your own
well idk if its that easy
but no shame in copying to learn its what i did
but ill def try\
it can be if you have the right mindset/attitude and put enough effort in

oh def
but that was a good call with the dollar
i can basicaly check how far apart are for instance a certain spawn and just how much i get from holding for that - easy enough
also depending on fights sometimes stuff just naturaly aligns
yes it was 
and now its kinda cooked with sectec cd
pray that we get charges in .5
so beta is super similar to prepatch now?
havent played it just heard that recent changes from beta were pushed to prepatch - were that all of them?
i havent played prepatch either but you're still missing apex talents
not that it adds a huge amount but its a decent chunk of potential optimizations
Just did an 18 and holy shit single target damage is just inexistant as of today
or is it just me?
ngl always have to laugh a bit thinking of the apex optimazation
that stuff is so cooked
is it atleast worth it
feels good to do it?
ya its not a mega op 7% gain anymore but like 1.5 or something iirc
thats somenthing
is it akward to play?
i didnt do much actual testing yet and it was all with base ui
probably a bit weird building at max cp
have to ask charrend or someone whos been grinding beta
mister eleem
A bit ye
anyone else having trouble with single target damage as of today's patch?
well u got smacked with like a 10% dmg loss
8% aura and gated moved in the class tree
Aoe feels mostly the same, but ST feels like it's doing half what it did yesterday
maybe I'm tripping
how can i like get the idea quickly for new raids to perform well? i guess mostly is expierence and watching a video of the boss and making a plan?
watching what other people do and ask yourself why that is
do i have any more options
Watching others + recording myself and watching my own vods is by far the best thing I ever did to start getting better
actualy
im guessing most top guilds are logging hidden at start?
does lorrgs still show me when they use cds? just with a hidden name?
You can see beta stuff for bosses to get a feel for them
this - especialy mistakes u dont realise
they will not show up
shit
but just tuned into RWF streamers
and watch them clear the raids
best way to really do it
Exile gigachad
Unless youre like very very high end youre gonna have a absolute ton of logs and videos to look at
majority of guilds just copy what they do anyway
nope they raid same time as you
Nah its on same as everyone else
they just clear it insanely fast
makes sense
are timers heavy diffrent between heroic and mythic
like extreme?
iirc this tier it didnt seem like it
timers usually stay somewhat the same
shit just does more dmg and has more hp + a few added mechanics
true
will be fun
also despite mybe not having access to rwf
Unless you are currently in echo or liquid you should have plenty of resources to look at to plan your prog
theres plenty good people that copy them that u can copy
do we have any weaknesses
high burst profile
@naive zodiac soz for ping bud, but how many charrs you prepping for splits this time around?

but something like swaping bad for arcane
idk if i can say exact # but over 15


u do what

this is crazy timing btw cause i was just reading the discord 
lmfao
wdym ur prepping 15 chars
The racoon could sense you
go back to your PoE
but like not all rogues right
majority rogues ya
most rogues and some DH's
surely thats not fucked
welcome to whats known as split hell
i remember its usual to have like multiple and split and then take the best geared one
but 15?
Thats why you dont play in a rwf guild 
So why did we get slapped in prepatch? Feel so much weaker.
that is crazy
No outlaw rogues this time!!! or i will haunt you
disgustinnnn
do yall think there'll be a maintenance today?
Sub was borderline broken, the 8% nerf was blitz desperate attempt to bring us in line with weaker dps @summer lynx /s
shit is so bugged rn
isnt it that super hard to like perfect all 3 specs
its an arms race to do as many splits as possible as efficiently as you can without your raiders committing suicide
to hope for better gear on average than the other guild
who in the right mind doesnt with 15
lets say u get lucky and get gear
u still have to help
right?
yes
and at what point do you not shoot yourself
rwf is not for the mentally weak
to alleviate some pain, some people get paid to play
I would have been rage baited by this if it werent for the /s ty
neither is RFWL
RWL
i heard its terrible
poor rwl gamers
you would hae to deal with
is that even fun
i know someone who is prepping 25
like
We did 2 and it was Misery
i suppose winning 3 RWF in a row makes funding splits easier though
are most rwf mostly one tricks?
is that even possible
i know most have alts or secondaries
but do u get to play your "main"mostly
at that level most can play mutiple specs
just depends what the raid needs that tier
some of them end up playing the same classes more than tohers
like firedup can play a bunch of stuff but i dont remember the last time i saw him not playing mage in race
so being excellent at one is less worthy than being able to flex
well they are excellent
well ofc not taking anything away
it was more between playing 3 specs and 1
surely the one is ever slightly better at that specific one
is sub at a bad spot rn with the bugs and that loss of damage which feels alot more than 8% for some reason
the gap is just prob not releveant
some people are there just to pretty much play one class, some cover a few more
it very much just depends on who
damn
oh so you can be that excellent
its usually 1-2 classes but some cover more
i mean thats not to bad
yeah i didnt mean earlier they all play every class
if u didnt have to have 15 of them
just a couple that they're really good at
no i got that
tanks and healers tend to play most though afaik (within their role)
at a certain level it becomes quite easy to pick up another class
wow is not that hard a game
unfort
all classes become easier 

ah so you enter a flow state after 12pm
well yes but how much can u get out of it - or is that just that easy too
well when you play at a certain level its just about applying the class, same way as you do any other class
just about effort more than anything reall
