I was hoping for a voidblade spec
voidreaver spec, would have hit so hard fml
YES
With the DS aoe buffs are we still running trickster for M+?
I'm forced to limit my voidreaver fantasy to Subtlety rogue, which just isn't ot
If your LC is giving a hunter a dagger over a rogue your guild is the problem. Ain’t no one giving a 1H sword to an outlaw rogue over a DH. 
Trickster always still
ty!
Shame we only shipped with one set of hero talents
Its wild isnt it
most other specs can atleast swap between like an aoe/st set
ds just kinda blows always lol
And not even good blow

It's all teeth
More like 1/2 of one of the two sets.
"I'm gonna make it so dry for you"
"Um no? Please don't do that Deathstalker"
Ds is that weird dude in the corner of the bar that you arent so sure about
what actually made sub atart doing tank damage btw? couldnt have been that 8% nerf
I'm still playing ds just for the aesthetic, thank god im just a filthy casual
gives me some extra purple void fantasy
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah comon we will have to play trickster for M+ to get a bit more dps now?...
you can play both
its rly no diffrence
i would suggest trickster
because you can macro bp and coup
so its easy to play
I find DS is more Sub vibe and also a bit more tricky sooooo
actually I think ill play DS until trickster become too important
they play the same
trickster doesn't have to deal with Mark, big check in the W category
imagine if the mark could get parried
they should redo undead racial and make it flesh crafting
that would be huge
what 2 combat racials? touch of the grave does less dmg than /spit
I choked on my coffee reading this thanks lol
Hol up are we playing trickster in ST on prepatch now over DS?
wouldnt be that bad to change cannibalize with fleshcraft
Which talents are we playing someone save me
Look #subtlety-faq
We're playing trickster then?
idk i copy what it says xd
Trickster yes
don't give them ideas
both are about on par now
Yo best race for rogue for mid igth is still NE ?
Hasnt been NE for a while
But if you want whats simming the highest its mechagnome, as it is for pretty much all other classes at the start of an expac
Humm so play whatever then
for aoe, do I use Coup the Grace if it's up? or only black powder and secret techniques?
always human
its personal decision, but i could not bring myself to play this abomination of a race starting with "mecha"
diaper baby
Does anyone know? ^^ cause atm in M+ I do Coup the Grace in aoe packs when it's up, but I wonder if it's better than black powder
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
i was undead then blood elf then human then blood elf then back to human
You always use coup yes
Thanks
coup does nimble so it is very strong
it just gives raw stats yea used to give more rep but they took that off
I’m still undead coping that blizzard will change undead racial to be good
underwater breathing now also works out of water.
Classic blizzard
it’s ok. You can be dead ass wrong.
Though velf getting a 50% discount is less big
nelf has a better elf model if you ignore the female nelf hand size
I mean do people stare at character hands.
velf just is too small in some mogs
Better race than belf in every way overall.

nah elves too dainty
I mean some rogue mogs look good as elf
but they're way too fking small for alot of mogs
human model looks better for transmog
also no weird shoulder floating
like nelf has
Bro wtf humans look like gorillas
weird way to type undead
second to no one u mean
me orc male
I think it just depends on race
Ya..
i would play a male tauren fury
wouldn't play male tauren anything
or tauren in general
not a fan of hooves
so draenei out too
one could say you love feet
My bdk swapped to tauren for a season and it threw me off so badly lmao
or troll feet, ick
dude was bigger than the mob packs he was pulling
You wouldn't play a female tauren rogue either 
I like male undead
With the onyx sunglasses
I think altogether my rogue has been undead, human, belf, nelf, worgen, orc, morc
Human undead and orc
The worst males are human and night elf
I’m still waiting for those massive bulky dragonoids
are all mine have ever been
Im playin male nelf even tho animations are bad but got used to it
their proportions are just wacky
They are supposed to be agile
and human male is too bulky
Yet look so stiff
who plays male
human male is cool
yeah thats it
but too basic for a mmo imo
Somehow i dont like male human running animation
if you could Slider body types that'd be sick
idk I like female belf stealth creepin and the crouch
Male Kul Tiran rogue

female undead animations are bis
there's like
agreed
female undead have THE best melee animations
sadly, the damge output of undead is everything else than bis
Dude the backflip or whatever when you finisher
PEAKKKKK
orc male shoulders are bigger than most character models in their entirety lol
the mogs look so bad
hunch is og
ye
straight back looks like they're trying to fool you that they're not orcs
not fooling anyone
Ok
even male velf is better
stances are worse
because you actually have a beard
peak is a good game, i haven't played in a while
I tried it, just not for me
peak is fun, i wanna try that other friendslop game where you like hide bodies in the icu or whatever
Hold on there's a great infographic for orcs.
sounds pretty cool
you can, just need to steal like 5 import codes instead of 1 lol
which reminds me I'm helping half the guild set them up this weekend
Male Belf are the most human looking proportional race
And have good standing pose for transmog
eh disagree, the offset leaning stance is a little extra for me lol
if anything female human is
ye
Yes, we are not all femboys these days 
Some of us still identify as males
ur not a femboy? wtf
you can identify however you want
idk male belves are pretty soy if you want to go down that path
Yo wtf
choosing to play female in a game for transmog is peak immersion
shots fired
Really can't talk "not a femboy" when male belf can barely grow a beard.
Like uhh.....
I don't play blood elf but I think they look okay
eh, I'd take female human over female orc
i think they both look real good in leather mogs
the exaggerated back arch, not a fan
yeah human is up there
but they're close
female human has the best overall mogs
the mage tower set on a human looks insanely good
Male orc looks real funny when i bust out the clownsuits
and chase someone down with the kobyss helmet
My Patreon
4.99 or 9.99 a month?

adjust the aspect ratio of your trinket 🔫
what's the best hero talent currently, guys? for single target.
trickster for everything
It’s about 12 revisions old now.

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
possible silly question but does anyone know off the top of their head how much gold a current-tier raid boss drops? Google does not have helpful relevant info
what made trickster the better option even for single target / raid now?
Precise killer in the deathstalker tree was fixed to be 20%
Instead of 40%
Which is like a 6% nerf
i see thx
Fwiw that happened like 10 days ago
my goat
outlaw best now no?

How much does sub play like the prepatch at 90?
same just bp spam and 0 st
90% i think
maybe 95% 99% lol
May have to bring the rogue back it’s so much fun

Just a quick question… does versatility bonus damage apply to all of our shadow clones?
hey yall, im gearing my sussy sub rogue and got this 141, whats the best perk for sub? until i get a replace
ty sir
np
your question is about as important as deciding what to have for lunch
so of minor importance in that specific moment, but ultimately fleeting in the grand scheme of things
poor Icarus potion
TO PIECES
also god bless killing valorstones
best change ever
also kills a bit of gold from circulation too
Soooooooo drugs? Yeah. Drugs for dinner.
someone in guild was complaining they can't afford to upgrade gear now just from raiding/m+

yeah people complaining that its expensive is weird
its a very tiny amount of gold
my issue is just why does it exist in the first place
we finally had one currency to upgrade shit like it shouldve been all along, then someone from blizzard got the shakes and had to add another
my guess is its a very common denominator gold sink
bc errbody wants to upgrade gear
you also get like 1.5k from doing one of the chest activities when earning spark fragments
enough for consumables and repairs yeah
so if you do 2 of the chest activities thats twice as much!
3 Awakening the Machine runs can cover all upgrades
no amount of gold is worth awakening the machine
but i simply disagree that this needs to be a gold sink
it is when you gotta get your spark fragment to craft
idk I don't see it as obtrusive
its perpetual vs one-time sinks like transmog or bank slots
they should add an actual gold sink like osrs
there are plenty of perpetual sionks
real
unironically
it should cost millions
bro i need thajt gold to buy more canmdles

Did they actually remove valor stones from beta before the gold change?
I’m just assuming it’s too much work to recode it one currency or there was an error and this was the fix
Intended gone or actually not needed for upgrades?
intended
they actually meant to change the upgrade currency to hearthsteel and accidentally made it gold 
lmao soon
Yeah so if it was intended I’m gonna assume this was way easier to implement
insane take
really? They’re fucking slop coding shit
I don't mind the change to gold tbh
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
find valor. replace gold. Code done. Next
^
Vs actually making sure a two currency system now works with just one
It’s like stealth abilities. 
If they actually cared it’s be more than 50g
macro not properly automating coup/black powder?
sometimes shows usually doesn't, is this normal?
That’s an interesting macro, can’t say I’ve tried something like that.
U should
Are you playing trickster?
Yes
If we got 4 stacks EB, still cast tech first in dance right?
Yes
If you put the name of the icon you want displayed after #showtooltip it should work
#showtooltip Black Powder
Also shift-f is a crazy keybind for a button you hit every other global in aoe 😂
my guildies are playing tbc
and someone just told them "go back to retail"
and they told me classic players think retail players are worse
which is hilarious
because tbc and classic are hardcore like mmos used to be
ignore the fact that they were successful because they were more casual friendly
also ignore the fact that retail bosses are probably x10 harder
what do you mean I need to press more than shadowbolt
insane
but to be fair, we are going there.
rotation wise yeah
yea, fair point
difficulty wise not sure
were far away from 15 second mana breaks every 6 mobs
I really hope the raids will be fun. I don't have much reason to be pessimistic there, but it would be a bummer if they missed on the first season after gutting rotational complexity
i mean you can also watch the beta tests, they don't look much simpler than before
The fights seem good but they might be undertuned as the Devs are gonna have to guestimate how good players are going to be with weaker ui reading tools
True, but I feel beta testing has never been a good indicator of how bosses will be in retail anyway. I think ppl thought Tindral would be easy and boring based on beta testing
guys whats making sub do so little damage?
them merging beta tuning to prepatch where we don't have the scaling/tools that made sub "ok" in beta
not much we can do here, just go play some other games until midnight launches
Prepatch doesn't have apex
Apex is gud, burst windows in raid exist, burst aoe still very strong
The spec still has its application
ohh so they tuned it to like true midnight except that they didnt give us apex so it feels really weak?
I wouldn't call it really weak rn, But yeah, apex will help it's damage
i guess theyre interesting in the way max looks at fights in terms of how you solve them as a raid
i really like fights like nexus king p1 where theres lots of dodging
yaeh i think he tells the absolute truth about fights
because they actually listen to him
most fights felt like it was a problem for the raid to solve without as much individual play
i liked kyveza
ah damn
kyveza was really good
i never got to prog kyveza 🙈 but it was fun on reclear
it was fun trying to kill the other rogue when they put us in the same section tho

it felt like a very clean boss design
visually looked great
and it felt just hard enough without being toxic
a lot of wiping to people dropping stuff in the wrong place
also a lot of wiping to people not being able to dodge
i thought i would be boned playing at 200ms and no cheat dodging lines
but i didn't die as much as other raiders on my team
"a lot of wiping due to people dropping stuff in the wrong place, and also people not being able to dodge"
oh definitely
and ps was far less pretty
you wanna talk about a boss that's hard to do with high ms
it was painsmith
holy shit
that was a terrible experience
Does DN on your cdm disappear with a delay? Since yesterday, I've often seen the DN disappear about a second after casting evis, which is a bit annoying
Resolved an issue that could cause players to unintentionally flag for PvP when casting spells such as Mage’s Ice Lance or Rogue’s Secret Technique.

FINAL
Yes same. I have 20-30ms ping and DN disappeare usually second late
Now imagine the pre nerf version of both
final boss voidspire
calling it right now
i wish i got to do kyveza and court and ansurek

bosses like uu nat or etraeus must have been crazy with high ping
That's the first time ive heard someone call star augur etraeus
That jadefire boss in bod was also ass with high ping
TRUE
i don't remember what prenerf painsmith was like, but prenerf kyveza was something
running 1 tank and saving a bres for when they inevitably die to have enough dps
crazy
!macro
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
Deathstalker likes to use this macro instead:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Shuriken Storm
This can be combines with trinkes and other cooldown use.
/cast Shadow Blades
/use 13
/use 14
/use Tempered Potion
/cast Ancestral Call
Trickster Rogues can combine Coup de Grace and Black Powder in one button:
/cast Coup de Grace
/cast Black Powder
You can find more macros and details in Guides like
WoWhead or
Icy Veins.
biggest change in 10 years
so annoying
ye
I remember during the diablo event
going into stormwind
and sectech
and getting fucking obliterated
This bug has existed since the birth of tech, and I'm glad they finally discovered it after so long 
Wait did they actually say they fixed it?
They probably fixed it because mages complained
they probably fixed it because it was a pita in the pre patch event
which even without this is a big dissapointment
Im just am not seeings notes. Where was this
not exactly the bug fixes i was hoping for, but it's better than nothing i guess
in before the devs are like "there we go, sub rogue worked on, onto the next"
It's also the prepatch where you could teleport people by clicking a portal. Don't know if you saw that one
Woah sectec fixes
i mean
little fuu does the event with his girlfriend
does world event in the mines
out of the sudden (without shadowstep/strike) falls through the floor
gets disconnect, and after multiple attempts needs to use the "unstuck" feature to fix
then decides, dragon riding is great, disconnects every few minutes because collisions in the event zone are stupid
the event is from a user perspective, even ignoring other issues, not ideal
damn thats a really nice way of putting it
imagine being a kid and you just fall through the floor
little prophet approves of your message
Would be lmaoing
i think that's actually the plot to home alone
lol
except it's the kid making adults fall through the floor
shit game this does not happen in roblox!
which one is shittier ? the game made by sa guys of the game filled with pedo ?
if you think there are no pedos in wow i have bad news
i mean all games have them idk why people want to focus what i find funny is the complete ignorance they show tho
0 will to make it better
guess that is the worse part
not what i think just the size of the problem is not the same imo
and your right about the worst part
but as customer except not paying i don't see how we can make it better
if corporate prefer to close it eyes to the problem
what you can do is acquire lots of shares and be in a shareholder meeting
to flame their asses
x)
very realistic
loan that to me ill happily flame them
until they want to adress the issue
Tanks are now upset that sub dps is to low in 13+ keys... And I was having a great time before patch day 😭
lol that's right, a friend (AFK around the end of SL) came back to play briefly because of free event, and then decided to go AFK again due to disconnection issues with dragon riding
Ironic with your discord tag
damn they caught us
I don't think most people care about Sub DPS in low keys, or enough to not invite them at this point.
It's prepatch lol
some people will
others just ignore you because you give shit all as buffs
some will tell you others just decline
This is what pre-patch keys look like
It basically doesn't matter what dps you do you 3 chest everything
Yeah
I had two DPS doing less than a tank buddy and we still timed a +12 at +2 without any issue
It's just the typical bad player weridos fixating on things they don't understand and can't control.
also if the tank is a bear
it is ok to do less dps than them
blizz put and extra 0 or two on some thin gs
mfrs doing 50k dps
Good one 🙂
Tried outlaw today and i have no clue which is better rn…
Dont like any tbh, rogue feels ass after pruning
outlaw has gun
therefore outlaw > the rest
Prepatch rogue does feel bad agree
Played the class for its required skill and now i press two buttons
@lilac stag
Another one
Theres a ton of nuance once u have apex talents dw
Became incel class along with the rest, just less dmg
midnight changes the games philosophy around class deisgn
so everything will play like what you discribed
the shift of the game is to satisfy what they assume is their (core) audience
Meh, people will still green parse on the 2 button spec and wonder why
if you disslike the direction, its likely that you are not part of the target group
Ye idk if wow had a new player in last 4 years
literally 50% of the people with green parse by definition 😮
it might grew because of china re-releases or other things
but going from account age
there is no significant growth
if anything, it shows quite stagnant at a low rate for the last 2 xpacs
with higher growth before that
statistic from: data of azeroth
whats green parsing again?
it's the percentile of your dps compared to players of the same spec recorded on warcraftlogs, if you are below 50% it gives you a green color, it is often seen as a proxy for performance and it depends on performance of course but also gear, kill time, mechanics and other shit
🤓 ummm actshually I am below 50% but it gave me a GREY number not green 😤🤚✍️
what's every apex optimization you're doing atm
playing assa. 
NAAAUUURRRRWWW
Actually outlaw last night hehe, is pretty good with 2x summarily and all the bte talents
how are you able to handle 3 buttons?
Isn’t apex talent just shadow craft
fkn mad skillz mate
I do miss the omega burst damage tho. Soulbinder was my favorite fight just because of numbers everywhere
It is what it is, were still bursty but more of it is focused around dance itself
Rather than 90s
Shadow strike at 5+ sht, shiv at 6+ sht in aoe, apex proccing coup, forgoing strike at 5+ last 2 gcd of dance
@plush roost remind me again, what did you want sht bar to show/work?
So we would generally be better at bursting down adds on a fight like araz/dimmyp2, but a bit worse on damage amps like nexus king
Having my sht stacks show how much cp they would fill as a backdrop to my cp bar like this
hmm. All you can likely do is a secondary bar to track how may you have. Not the calculation for fills
Ye thats why i say its somewhat blackboxed, tracking them isnt the hard part its tying it into my bar
why exactly did they blackbox it
Its more like the opposite, they purposefully didnt blackbox stuff like energy
But they change addon restrictions every day so who knows what else
"blackboxing" is like the entire point of the midnight addon changes, so we dont have another fractillus 
the inability to track my sht like i did with WAs is bothering me atm
Ye its like not the biggest deal
that's the 1 UI issue i'm having
I can see the stacks as an icon
Just not aesthetically pleasing to me is all
Like i had someone ask me how i have all these WAs on my beta UI lmao
LOL
Its just ui reskins idk good enough right.
max was saying the race is gonna be people in chat asking "i thought they nuked addons"
"are they cheating"
"what's going on"
why do you strike at 5 sht stacks?
Omg so many wa
reported to the higher authorities
okay thank you, kinda thought only finisher will proc apex
may god have mercy on your soul
Well you have to use a builder to activate it
Basically its builder to activate apex, finisher to consume it and refund cp
Then a finisher consumes it
Like shadowcraft of the past with extra steps
thank you for the explanation
In theory its good so that the refunds arent "random" as they were with shadowcraft
But obviously its a bit janky in practice since we have this optimization
i'm not gonna lie this apex is kinda confusing
Its just got confusing tooltip
i'm not smart so my brain has a bit of a hard time wrapping around it
its worded weird yes
but yeah i get it fully now
This is good to know. Just been doing mythic reclears for mount on prepatch so its mega boring. Excited to try the apex talents out
If you press a builder and you have more than 5 sht stacks left afterwards > You get a proc (with a big spell alert on your screen)
Proc makes it so your next Finisher refunds the sht
and then that refund is expending CPs so it procs apex 1
Yerp
very cool
Do we think it’s going to actually go live like that is still the question.
prophet been busy in housing brain haha
i honestly dunno, it seems like it would take not a short amount of dev time for them to adjust it
They can make it so it only procs if you actually generate combo points
Instead of being just using a builder
that would be good
ah ok
It would fix it yes
because it takes away agency?
But then when we want to pool sht
We would sit at 6 cp
With capped energy
Instead of spamming backstab at 7
mmm ok yeah
is that the move before dances, you spam backstab at 7 until you have 5 sht, go into dance, cancel aura apex on sectec then apex the next finisher?
Yes, but you also dont need to cancelaura it for sectech
Fingers crossed for the import for sub .)
oh shit ok
Since you supercharge sectech its kinda fine, and if cancelaura you sometimes end up with sht stacks leftover after dance
Which isnt great
ahh ok i see
But also if you have premed up when you finish it autocancels the apex (bug)
But it doesnt really matter much
iseewhatyoudidthere
iseedeadpeople
that movie traumatized me as a teenager
but still one of my favorite horror movies of all time
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
@plush roost so yea it would just be a second combo point bar and to me it looks wildly out of place
Instead of just a single icon for it
Thats what i had since amirdrassil
Cp bar for sht
They went purple when i had 7
Rip WAs

i just had a number over my CP bar
this is what ive got now. was trying to avoid moving tracked buff for each spec, but not a big deal if I need to
but the way it was positioned was much better than default UI right now
I just guess my cp and finish when I think they're high enough
Pretty clean, but why are the buffs not centered?
ui likely bugged
why would shiv work with ancient arts
So you have both the bar with slots and the icon with number for sht?
any cp gen works to proc apex
but Arts1 say abilities that expend shadow tech
arts4
i think you are mixing up 2 different effect of apex, first point is generating clones, last point is triggering sht
Im just asking about the thing on the bug page
it says Arts1 does not trigger on shiv
@plush roost that's would be closest I can get it where it would color change the first 5
@vestal escarp ^
Damaging attacks that expend Shadow Techniques to generate combo points have a 15% chance per stack expended to create a Shadow Clone that repeats the attack for 50% of normal damage as Shadow.
Shiv is a damaging attack that expends shadow techniques, but it cannot create a clone that repeats the attack
Is that not a bug?
@lilac stag I respect it, and I love what you have done
yaeh idk what we're storing ect.
more traditional CP maybe better with sht bar
But i hate arcui with a passion
only 2 buttons, use rest of brain on arcui learning
But I’m on battle shout duty
Does shiv expend? If I was 0 cp with 6sht stacks would it give me 7 if i shiv
i see ok
After what critcake posted I might aswell
Come into the raid, press shout and go afk
is that a good thing for us tho would we ever want to use shiv for that
oh no, what happened
I mean it largely doesnt matter
But it just does less damage
Like its still consuming the sht stacks
But you are not getting any clones from it
So its just strictly worse
St got so fkd
you should try orbit
Arcane mage does sim 64% above
you just drag abilities with charges onto it and it makes a bar
I’ll have a look thx (:
with charges
so ready for rotational shiv
What bugs u think are really bad rn? I havent played sub in awhile
The ones that are bolded in the sheet

But if we just ignore deathstalker theres not much
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
@vestal escarp 5cp, still counts stacks 
is this entirely done in arcui?
ArcUI + Sensei
Thats not too bad, but looks weird to me, i think having it fill to 7, backdropping last 2 and having the number directly inside the bar is probably good.
But maybe just a little icon is the play
Im a bit of wang enjoyer tho so yknow
Oh nice, time to sell your ui for big $$$
big dinocoin situation
You can swap out the resource to whatever.
nothing is really attached to anything else.
Raid Leader: so explain to me how your account got banned?
Me: well you see, I started selling a custom UI in the rogue discord and …
New to spec. So if I have 10 pts in sht and 2 in combo pts, if I slam an Evis will it be like a 7pt finisher?
Sht is a mechanic that will give you extra combo points when you use a builder
i think whats theyre asking is "how much does more points do i get from sht when i use builder while having sht stacks"
if im not wrong it just uses however many stacks it can right?
so if ur at 2 combo points and u have 5 stacks then it becomes 7 combo points?
If you use a builder, yes, but not if you just “slam Evis”
At 2cp
It will add however many stacks to the cp your builder would grant normally, up to a full cp bar
If you have 2 cp and 5 stacks and use backstab, it will grant 1 (from backstab) plus 4 from your stacks so you have 7 cp
wouldn't it make sense to put shiv into rotation during blades/dance just based off danse macabre
No, because strike does more damage than shiv+macabre
ill have to test that, macabre does 420% attack power as shadow damage and there's a bunch of shadow damage amp in the talent tree as well
strike is like 480something% iirc
shiv itself does 125%, plus the 420%+ from macabre
true
yep, and strike is big dam
Shiv does less damage than backstab or storm
And if you really want you can use one of those, but its not better than just using strike
So why bother
Yeah if macabre was good enough we would be using stab and storm in dance even in st
You can use BP on singletarget too if you want, when you dont have supercharger or apex activated and have already used eviscerate, but like, the sim doesnt differenciate the results because theyre so similar, so why bother
The sub rogue way. Try to take an effective and simple approach and krangle the fuck out of it.

oh so it would it be worth counting/tracking my sht then actually?
I mean you dont need to, maybe if you wanna pool some before dance its useful ig
Eh
but you dont HAVE to
If you don’t think you’re capable of reacting to the spell effect
or does it just use however many that it needs to full the combo points bar
^^
Yes
Yep
Yeah, can only use as many as it takes to fill your bar
great thanks ill probably just not track it then
You get so many stacks during dance/blades that you proc the apex all the time
the dps must be beyond insane then with apex
#showtooltip Shadow Blades
/use Unyielding Netherprism
/cast Shadow Blades
Anyone got any idea why this isnt working? Doesnt matter if I do /use 13 or if I put it after /cast Shadow Blades either : |
im excited to see the apex visuals if its proccing that much
honestly i didnt even know what was giving me shadow tech stacks, ive just been going like "oh hey i got a free full bar"
lots of purple farts
what actually gives shadow tech stacks?
Auto attacks
On beta right now you want 5 pooled before going into dance
well thats pretty simple lol, i dont even needa do anything
for every dance? Or just blades dance
Pretty sure every from charrend unless I misread it
Imo makes sense though
when i was playing you started to run dry a lil towards the end if you didnt pool
Hence me trying to sort this out
do you still go into dance at low cp with ds and high cp with trickster? in that case do you pool at low cp?
You just dont play DS
But you do not pool with ds
If we all avoid it like the plague MAYBE they’ll do something to it
Like we did TWW?
we avoided for entire seasons
Let a man dream
PvP will still play it and fuck us over from it ever getting fixed
Also yeah
Maybe they’ll nerf an undertuned DS tier set again
all 10 pvp players
blizz should be buffing rogue, nobody plays this class its like one of the lowest usage rate isnt it
WOW
gotta give people an incentive to play rogue
Hahahahaha
LOL dont play it
Perfect
gotta love friction ™

idk i think WW is lower actually
ds sounds like its getting destroyed cuz of that bug wtf
i thought they gave ww a good buff recently
yeah buff but iirc people are not happy playing it rn
I mean the reason pvp played it was because eviscerate does like 70% less damage in pvp
they don't press their main ability in ST
WW has 3x the population as sub iirc
popping up outta the air and stunning someone like nuts is kinda funny tho
Are all melee back to being angry at the same time? 
Its another caster patch brother
its a bit of an irony
back to mage it is
subtlety was too good in a combo with heavy hitting specs
warlock time perhaps
like mage
thats why it was reduced to only do cc more or less
but nobody cares that mage has a ton of cc too and does damage
it's always mage
paying for the sins of pvp as usual
not that i care, just saying, this feels inequal
thats funny
Should really just delete pvp as a game mode
pvp is already a small niche conent
Instead of perpetually neglecting it hoping the player base abandons it as well
let players have fun
It needs to be entirely separate if anything
abilities shouldn’t even be the same
we shouldn’t suffer because something is broken in pvp
i mean, buttons already do different amount of damage and duration of effects in pvp, it already is another game
Just make a tournament pvp realm server. No leveling. no questing. Just arcade mode PvP.
lmao some players need the thought of beating the shit out of another alive person rather than npcs
the thing is, there are better games than wow for that, wow unique thing is pve
oh yea i agree on that 100% lol
Pvp in wow is also unique though
for the most part
unique does not mean good
Right, but clearly some people enjoy wow pvp
sometimes its nice using the stuff i grinded for to go fight someone that has strategy and and actual brain but 90% of my gameplay is just dungeons
Wouldnt exist otherwise
i just play pvp whenever i have nothing better to do
pvp was a more central part of the game in the more classic xpacs
my brother, there are people enjoying obscure old games dead for decades still
the game just survived long enough to still have a community around it
i remember back then when rogues would camp the shit out of people and be an absolute bully
Yeah thats my point…?
i don't want to draw comparisons, because i know if i do it would be unfair to pvp players
but lets say they are a small minority with a lot of vocal individuals
pvp being part of wow's esport keeps it relevant
i don't think average gamer even knows wow could be esport outside of the race
the race is not an official wow event
technically, blizz always states they do no special treatments for the race
reality is, they do A LOT
yet it is more widely recognized than the events blizzard tries to push
esports always only worked when it comes from community grassroots, forcing titles to esports has been proven a bubble
Yall could always go play Fellowship if you have a problem with PvP
i was not understanding the hype around it
and it seems like i was correct on that
man i cant wait for midnight
surely apex will make rogue become a god if used correctly
id love the cool visuals
rn the only somewhat nice visuals are when i shadowstrike or coup
Something a bit more sinister looking
than the purple farts
Strike visual is really good imo
i love the like leap thing u do
releasing the void's gas
yea exactly its so clean looking
Is Rogue bad right now?
peak
On prepatch? Or in midnight?
midnight.
Think rogue is sleeper strong
Rogue always sleeper strong
It feels way too weak compared to Arcane and Frost Mage
Are u playing with a shaman
Yeah but theyll nerf arcane and demo soon enough
Subtlety feels dead in raids. Is Outlaw the best spec for raid right now?
prepatch doesn't matter, midnight nobody knows
Thx guys
Guy told me to not believe the noise and keep faith in my bone rolling
Well Frost arcane demon and DK are like, the best classes in the game
If your comparison for "how good is rogue" when comparing to the actual best specs in the game, then yeah it's ass. But balance patches are on the way still, and also, rogue is surprisingly close either way
And double dagger survival 8)
But I mean nobody thoght rogue was playable last raid and it ended up being a carry class
So like lol
Ppl are very wrong sometimes
Sub and damage amps
More like netherprism and damage amps
Going from prism to puzzy b gonna be sad
Dont think well be playing puzzlebox
I only know of puz and the haste on use
Not sure what trinkets are really looking like in midnight
Puzzy B makes me feel sick, I remember it the 2nd time round
Theres no strong stat on-uses
Or well, with their budget in the on-use
Like araz or prism, which provide almost nothing passively but massive stats on-use
All the ones in midnight have passive agi, and a minor stats on-use, like puzzlebox
mehh that kinda sucks
I guess all we can do is wait with anticipation lol
Can we tell by raid testing which spec is better for each raid boss or too early?
Raid testing was like 4 tuning passes ago
In fact, evaluating strength during beta is completely meaningless. Here's something you might not know: sub was incredibly op during some beta tests, then got nerfed in retail 
Yeah that’s definitely true, ill have to look at whats available for passives. I like the idea of our normal dances having more power
Gaze of the alnseer+whatever, until they nerf it
Thanks, that was helpful
Thing sounds pretty wild
Idk I have haunting memories of not judging specs during beta cycles.
Then CN opened and rogue and havoc were straight dog shit and I was full hopium they’d be fixed. Never happened. Had to crunch WW gear
ya cuz when the idiots in my raid inevitably die i get free damage
Ye because one has an animation that feels good to press (and looks cool), while the other requires you to be stationary and does the same thing as most trinkets without any animation
You can move with gt as well
Moreso that they technically could have made gt an instant cast
Also that
like the sire trinket
Bring back dreadfire vessel
Ofc, but by making it a channel it can do more damage
Wasn't there one point you couldn't move during gt
They should make puzzlebox flash a quick time event where u input a random code each time

You moved at like 1%
Could be instant could be 10 second cast
