We know how much people loved transmitter.

plush roost
#

How good are u at qte

swift tinsel
#

lemme play Bejeweled for a buff

#

the more matches the stronger the buff

shrewd lantern

I still never got

#

the toy from transmitter

grand wyvern
plush roost
#

Transmitter step aside

swift tinsel
#

that would be so on brand but so fun

uneven scarab
#

Sounds like the EB branch

#

good times

hazy breach
#

Besides, i dont think puzzlebox is gonna be something we'd use a lot now that theyve nerfed the potion

plush roost
#

It also sims like insane but is unplayable

#

The forbidden fruit

shrewd lantern
#

didnt branch move to you

#

I felt it was only a pita for dh

#

playing branch on havoc on the tree boss LMAO

plush roost

#

Outlaw literally outperformed WW week 1 of CN

plush roost
#

I really like pbox

uneven scarab
#

Idk if it moved to you or kinda just moved around

hazy breach
#

Yes

uneven scarab
#

I forgot

shrewd lantern
#

They progressively moved to you

plush roost
#

Nooooo

shrewd lantern
#

But people wanted to "max" the branch buff

#

by running from orb 3

plush roost
#

Back to my stinky ass fluxating feather...

hazy breach
#

Hopefully they do a tuning pass and buff the crit one

#

Otherwise we prob stuck with passives

plush roost
#

Ye crit flask is horribly understatted

hazy breach
#

Our 90s aint what they use to be anyway

I think thwyre both bad kekdog

hazy breach
#

Ye

#

In comparison to prism or araz everything seems bad

plush roost

March first boss feather ans alnseeker just seem to be the play

I think puzzle box still decent tho may have a niche

plush roost
#

Anything to take note of?

lilac stag
#

Sorry you couldn’t play outlaw at a higher %

plush roost
#

I cant get a read on fishhooks cause they dont show up on logs

ivory obsidian
#

lol

lucid jackal
#

Can u believe ppl told me sub was better?? LOLOL

#

Couldn't be me

chrome palm
hazy breach
#

Was more curious about the random ass items, like the set

#

A lot of them arent implemented in sims

shrewd lantern
#

CN probably one of the few actual outlaw tiers

plush roost
#

Mm no tbh i havent actually taken a good look at most

#

I probably should tho, i just think a turbo embellishment and trinket pass will come soon

hazy breach
#

Presumably if they were OP you wouldve heard of them though

plush roost
#

Ye for sure

hazy breach

hazy breach
plush roost
#

Hehe i do think that the arcano thread lining

#

Has big potential

#

Is a lot of stats

#

And it spreads out to your group

hazy breach
#

How much is it

plush roost
#

Tooltip says 44 and 11 to group

#

Mainstat

hazy breach
#

That seems like a lot indeed

plush roost
#

It does

#

Its a whole food buff

hazy breach
#

Oh wait its not always up

plush roost
#

And u can have 2 right so thats also kinda nuts

hazy breach
#

I thought it was like the old linings above 80% or whatever

plush roost
#

Idk the proc rate i gotta look

uneven scarab
#

Idk how people forget

hazy breach
#

First craft pretty much has to be a dagger anyway, so i could probably just recommend fishhook

You didn't have the macro on your stealth bar meme . jpg

Oh. Even with #showtooltip?

yh lol

hazy breach

Question why does ds like dance+Storm instead of dance+ST?

lilac stag
#

Answer: don’t play DS
DS not worried about flawless stacks

bright sundial
#

Damn so every season a tricky season OMEGAKEKW

lilac stag
#

If there’s a god we’re never touching DS unless it’s seriously reworked for gameplay

fallow glade
#

there's a simple way to never touch DS again. Laughge 👉 rootyTooty grab the pistol spec

bright sundial
#

Are we never playing ds cause of gameplay issues or tuning issues?

hazy breach
#

Both

bright sundial
#

Sadge deathstalker wish it got cool talents wasted name

#

Wait but I've just noticed since it took them 3 season to fix s1 bugs for ds means we won't get a rework til after last titan when there gone OMEGAKEKW

hazy breach
#

They havent really fix s1 bugs

bright sundial
#

Lmao

hazy breach
#

Unless you count making one of the bugs an intended effect

#

That technically removes a bug ig

bright sundial
#

Ig it doesn't help that we never play it so what's the point in fixing it?

#

The bugs i mean not the reworking part

astral axle
quick burrow
#

If deathstalkers mark was attached to the player instead of the mob everything would be so much better

vale pine
#

absolutely

dry plank
#

It took a while for them to attach FW to player may be after last titan they would do it

#

Don’t expect much rogue changes for next 1.5 years

flint parrot

!fuu

light imp
#

I havn't been active for quite a long time, someone please tell me that sub rogues seriously havn't been reduced to what very lightly boils down to a Shadow strike/backstab > Evicerate 2 button rotation

tulip light
#

yes

wraith zealot
#

somethimes u prees 3 or 4 for cd 🙂

wary flower
#

Sub has kinda been like that for a while IMO. It's just that the two buttons were macros of stuff that needed to all be pressed together anyway.

wraith zealot
#

yep

#

now we dont have debuffs for track really

jaunty heath
#

having fun levelling as sub, seems bursty. Been open world questing

#

I kind of just put talents everywhere, no idea if it's optimal

wary flower
#

Hard to go wrong when leveling, honestly. Just about everything works.

swift tinsel
#

scary thing is sub isn't the most simplified spec of the bunch too lol

#

arcane doesn't even cast missiles anymore just barrage blast and orbs lol

bleak night
#

tbf thats more a tuning issue than an intentional simplification

jaunty heath
vale pine
swift tinsel
#

I won't rest until they're Frostbolt bots

#

(they're icelance bots currently so its close)

bleak night
#

ye thats not new for frost though

#

every expac it goes through an icelance phase

#

they cant help it

swift tinsel
#

ye that's how tww s1 was in really bad fashion

#

right now you just get so many shatter stacks it feels like you can't spend them fast enough

obtuse relic
wary flower
#

I don't mind simple if its engaging. Plus if you want new players it just can't get exponentially more complex.
I'll main sub till I die cuz I like the mechs more than other classes.

swift tinsel
#

its pretty fun, just less cluttered than it was in tww

swift tinsel
#

as long as trickster doesn't get blown up I'll be happy

obtuse relic
#

There still should be some complex hard specs tho I feel

#

But more simpler specs

wary flower
#

I really want DS to be good. Maybe one day

swift tinsel
#

I don't mind it being easy to pick up, as long as there's some flair coming from tier sets or talent tweaks

obtuse relic
#

As a new plAyer learning some of the harder specs and learning weak auras and all the shit took so much time and almost made me quit gettin keybinds right etc lol

#

I came to tww and felt like I was gonna be dog ass at the game but I spent a bunch of hours learning all the new stuff now and I’d say I’m above average

#

But the new player experience was dreadful lol

#

I didn’t even know about the new tier set changes

swift tinsel
#

ye new player experience is pretty trash lol

obtuse relic
#

Being able to to turn armor into tier lol I started end of df and they l boosted me up and was like holy hell it’s so different how do I get tier

#

My mind was blown I could just change armor into tier lol

wary flower
#

I wish the new player experience included the old class trainers. And you could opt in to a class dojo like scenario before going into the story aspect. Feels like that would help a lot of new players.

bleak night
#

catalyst was a huge w

#

might be the single best thing to come from shadowlands

obtuse relic
#

Especially for people who don’t mythic raid lol

eager latch
#

LMAO

#

more sub nerfs

short radish
#

xaxaxaxa

eager latch
#

LMFAOOOOOOOOOO

#

were we overperforming chat?

astral axle
#

unseenblade damage nerf?

hazy breach
#

Subs ST has been middling while the aoe has been fairly strong (on beta that is)

#

I wouldve liked to see an eviscerate buff or something to up the ST a little bit, but aoe nerf is mostly fine

spice matrix
#

pack it up boys, see you in the assassination channel

bitter halo
#

Guys are we running DS or Trickster for ST?

hazy breach
spice matrix
glad cosmos
#

Why is rogue getting fucked lately, was it really that busted on beta?

astral axle
#

Im just confused why the nerf to unseen blade haha

hazy breach
#

296 not a very nice and round number, 280 better

#

Is my best guess

astral axle
#

This is why you're the best eleem

eager latch
#

it was a strong A tier spec

#

but plenty of other specs that were outperforming it by a good margin

hazy breach
#

If we get compensatory ST buffs then it would be absolutely fine

short radish
#

blizzard feeding my conspiracy theory that sub rogue isn't allowed to ever outperform in anything

hazy breach
#

Spec is very AoE skewed

short radish
#

we eating well today (we're not)

eager latch
#

it's a pad spec

#

0 prio

#

you do dogshit damage in 2 target

#

and very little utility

#

what's the niche again????

#

i'm just malding man

astral axle
#

the only spec which has the right to be real mad

#

is arms

#

that dogshit spec took more nerfs

bleak night
#

ww took a 10% aura nerf

hazy breach
#

I mean its not like were doing literally 0 prio, its just not higher than pure ST

bleak night
#

and i dont really know why

#

lmfao

astral axle
chrome palm
#

To be fair this nerf makes sense

eager latch
chrome palm
#

Mage and warlock were giga op so they kinda had to nerf rogue again

bleak night
#

yeah

#

i agree

hoary sun
#

Blizz better stop nerfing my spec on god

chrome palm
#

This feels like tww s2 again or something just getting nerfed every week before launch

hazy breach
#

I mean they nerfed arcane and demo heavily too

bleak night
#

and frost

hazy breach
#

I mean its still alright

eager latch
#

the arms nerfs are the craziest part ngl

hazy breach
#

If sub was like 5% behind, other specs get nerfed by 10% but sub only gets 3% were still coming out relatively ahead

eager latch
#

they were already legit so bad in keys

#

and arms caught more strays

#

what data are they even using?

bleak night
#

first thing i see going over to the warrior discord

torn tide
#

is it really a very bad nerf for trickster tho

chrome palm
#

Coup cleaves quite a bit less now

#

So your aoe burst gets hit more than anything

dull sierra
#

Sorry if I have a bad understanding, but is this just for prepatch or does it affect how sub will ship for midnight release

hazy breach
#

It will be applied to the prepatch, but its intended for the midnight release

dull sierra
#

Ahh okay got it

torn tide
#

man thays depressing

#

well atleast arms,mage and warlock got fucked too

hazy breach
#

From the guy thats played probably the most sub out of anybody on the beta

torn tide
#

sounds about right

#

the bigman charrend

warm depot
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
torn tide
#

its okay i still believe in apex talents saving sub

astral axle
#

yeah i dont want my sadness for arms over look the fact the ceiling was lowered big with the lock mage nerf

torn tide
#

that mage nerf looks so sad tho

#

but deserved, frost is nuts

#

if i was a mage main and i read that shit id consider changing classes

hazy breach
#

Its enormous nerfs for these classes btw

#

We mightve caught a -3.5%

#

But theyre tanking like -12%

#

Arcane, frost and demo

torn tide
#

oych

astral axle
#

I love it

#

No despair

cursive hamlet
#

they were op so its warranted they would receive massive nerfs

bleak night
astral axle
#

Eat the rich

bleak night
#

yoink

chrome palm
#

No aug nerf either. Idk if they are super strong but I’m seeing them in a lot of keys

hazy breach
#

Like i looked at a log from charrend with a demo lock and he would do 15% less damage with these nerfs

bleak night
#

wouldnt it be garfunism not garfumism

chrome palm
#

Maybe just because mage and lock were so insane

hazy breach
#

Im sure there will be optimizations to make it less severe, like playing the other hero talent or something

#

But still

astral axle
torn tide
hazy breach
#

If its complicated you implement it into simc

#

Otherwise you just look at logs

torn tide
#

oh cool

hazy breach
#

And do napkin math

#

Like if nimble is 25% of your damage and its nerfed by 20%, you would lose 25x0.2=5%

astral axle
#

:O

hazy breach
#

But its closer to 20%, and the nerf is 13% not 20%, just picked those numbers because its easier numbers for an example

plush roost
#

Erm

#

The agenda is being pushed?

hazy breach
#

Agenda? Hmm

#

Whos agenda we talking about

plush roost
#

Mine

plush roost
#

Nerf sub, buff assa agenda

torn tide
#

charrend please save sub

#

wait what

plush roost
#

All accorsing to keikaku

hazy breach
plush roost
maiden oar
#

buff outlaw agenda...?

plush roost
#

I predicted this 6 days ago

hazy breach
#

Tbf these assa buffs seem miniscule

astral axle
#

keikaku isn't that when someone is in the middle and a bunch of dudes are standing around in a circle and...

plush roost
#

I disagree tbh

hazy breach
#

But might be enough with all the sub nerfs

plush roost
#

Rupture is already ur number 1 boss and trash dps

#

5% is gud

#

Caustic buff is good

#

Ive been an avulsion believer for months now

torn tide
#

do u think sub is gonna get buffed back up before midnight?

plush roost
#

Idk maybe i think these nerfs are fine

#

Beats an 8% nerf

tepid bison
hazy breach
#

I dont think sub is gonna get any aoe buffs

plush roost
#

Ye i think they buff strike and evis

#

Maybe backstab

#

If they decide to buff sub

hazy breach
#

Evis probably sufficient, but well see

torn tide
plush roost
#

If they buff st its good for m+

#

Subs problem on beta rn is everything is dead and your prio target has 40% hp

torn tide
#

okay wtf

plush roost
#

Thats why im striking and throwing evis in my cds even if its bad for aoe

torn tide
sour horizon
#

ayo wtf is this assassination buffs and sub nerfs??

swift tinsel
#

nerfmaxxing

sour horizon
#

I dont wanna play assassination maaan

swift tinsel
#

then don't Surebud

plush roost
#

Im almost 100% sure sub is still the best of all 3 rogue specs in keys

#

And will have a niche in raid still

formal helm
#

if you're not in a rwf guild or top 100 you can really play w/e you want

#

whenever.

#

just play what you enjoy

#

that's it

grand wyvern
swift tinsel
sour horizon
#

yeah its a chill guild, theres 0 pressure, but when theres a wipe at low % its always in back of mind xD

formal helm
#

ye but this guy is saying he doesn't want to play assa

#

you could also just perform worse on a better spec

swift tinsel
#

^

formal helm
#

that's always a thing too

#

so it's really just a matter of what you enjoy more

sour horizon
#

I can do either at a decent level, cept outlaw havent touched it so ill be bad

formal helm
#

then play what you want 🙂

plush roost
#

Jsyk all know doing napkin math of an 18 i did last night, these nerfs equate to about 1.9m total key damage

#

Out of...

#

274m

#

Its fine

formal helm
#

it's jover.

#

it's so jover.

long sun
#

These nerfs lowk random

swift tinsel
#

ye we're fine big picture

astral axle
#

but bro i needed that 1.9 !!! RAGEY

mental saddle
#

charrend how's rogue specs on raid ? have u tested em ?

hazy breach
astral axle
#

I was gonna do something with it

hazy breach
#

But i do think it was weird that coup was basically aoe during blades

swift tinsel
#

plus I just venmo'd realz with a note asking for st buffs

#

so we're good

plush roost
sour horizon
#

what was the old roguecraft quote about never using cds in pvp so you can kill or somethingf xD

hazy breach
#

Like now nimble is 82% during blades instead of 95%

#

Its still an obscenely high cleave number imo

torn tide
formal helm
#

btw how is energy regen

hazy breach
#

Infinite during dance

#

Meh outside, but who cares

formal helm
#

so same old kinda

#

have to get some haste

#

but can't be arsed to optimise stats now

#

I'll do it in the season

swift tinsel
#

I just swapped some gems and a couple slots and got to 35% without much trouble

#

but ye it doesn't really matter since we level in a couple weeks and replace it all

formal helm
#

yeah

#

that's why I can't be arsed

swift tinsel
#

probs gonna level as outlaw anyways

swift tinsel
#

now that I don't have to worry about crackshot resetting shit

formal helm
#

nah, can't be seen switching to that unholy spec

torn tide
swift tinsel
#

its a vibe

astral axle
#

outlaw fun Gladge

sour horizon
#

sub leveling is kinda rough

formal helm
#

tried a few mins of assa on dummies

swift tinsel
#

its steadier damage so you don't feel as anemic outside dance for questing

astral axle
#

sub fun Gladge

formal helm
#

that seems kinda fun now

swift tinsel
#

with downtime tho its not bad

hazy breach
swift tinsel
#

its all whatever

hazy breach
#

You get more than 2x the dances you would get before

swift tinsel
#

ye I just want the change of pace

plush roost
#

Sub leveling sh9uld be thanos now lowkey

#

Pull a ton every 20 seconds

swift tinsel
#

if its kill quests yea

sour horizon
#

oh thats good then

astral axle
#

assa has whispyr ExcitedBlushette

sour horizon
#

i usually swap when leveling then swap back

swift tinsel
#

and you get to use strike teleport for more mobility as well

formal helm
#

at the end of the day it's leveling. who cares.

hazy breach
#

Like before dance had ~45s or so because you dont have enough uptime to farm cdr

#

Now dance is always 20s

swift tinsel
#

I've just been Mafic'ing and playing outlaw open-world and chillin

torn tide
formal helm
#

still feeling weird bc we're missing buttons tho

swift tinsel
#

eh I don't miss them tbh

formal helm
#

my keybinds for symbols and rupture are still empty

swift tinsel
#

and will miss them even less while questing/leveling

formal helm
#

idk what to put there

torn tide
#

it was so much more complicated

formal helm
#

yeah

#

oh well

swift tinsel
#

blades took over my symbols bind and rupture is now storm+dance

plush roost
#

I just dont have my w key bound anymore

formal helm
#

storm + dance huh

plush roost
#

Xd

formal helm
#

mby I steal that

plush roost
#

It was rupture

#

💔

swift tinsel
#

so if I wanna natty Dance+Blades+Sectech its really easy to hit all at once as Q+3+R

formal helm
#

why tf was w a rupture bind?

plush roost
#

Why not?

formal helm
#

fair enough.

swift tinsel
#

rupture was 5, still is for sin

formal helm
#

think I have smth bound on ž

astral axle
#

Becase its right there in the name

plush roost
#

Its a button u press frequently in your rotation so it takes a core rotation space on my keyboard

astral axle
#

wupture

formal helm
#

can't even recall waht

swift tinsel
#

if you mouse-move then W is a prime bind tbh

torn tide
#

im still laughing at the arms warrior gravestone picture

astral axle
swift tinsel
#

like I auto-run mostly instead of W

plush roost
swift tinsel
#

I just haven't bound it tho

#

that too yea

formal helm
#

and I mostly do that

swift tinsel
#

just have ASD as strafe walk strafe

torn tide
formal helm
#

but still would feel weird to have wasd binds

swift tinsel
#

like I have Q and E bound for stuff

formal helm
#

yeah same

plush roost
#

Nah ASD, mouse to turn camera

#

Qwerty123456+shift/ctrl varients

formal helm
#

also it feels so weird playing now

swift tinsel
#

tho having S for tanking is useful

formal helm
#

since I upgraded pc

swift tinsel
#

backpedal moving

#

etc

plush roost
#

X

#

Probelm solved

formal helm
#

I'm used to fucking lagging and fps drops

swift tinsel
#

No that's Teabag bind

astral axle
torn tide
astral axle
#

how can i sit on your face without x bound

formal helm
#

?

plush roost
torn tide
swift tinsel
#

using X feels very odd to me tho for movement

swift tinsel
formal helm
plush roost
#

I type /sit LOL

swift tinsel
#

you monster hahaha

formal helm
#

and I went from a 15'' laptop to a 24'' screen

plush roost
#

High apm gameplay

formal helm
#

so it's giga upgrade3

swift tinsel
formal helm
#

still feels giga weird

plush roost
#

I felt assa lacked apm in s2 so i made apm

swift tinsel
#

ye going up past 144hz is lifechanging

plush roost
#

/sit /sit /sit /sit

formal helm
#

could be a play later on haptics

swift tinsel
#

hey whatever works lol

formal helm
#

but for now I'm getting a 60hz one soon-ish from a friends company

#

for like 40€

#

which is basically free

torn tide
swift tinsel
#

I went from 60 to 75 and now at 180hz and the jump to 180 was insane

formal helm
#

I don't get what changes tho, I'm stupid in this sense

swift tinsel
#

the framerate

formal helm
#

yeah?

swift tinsel
#

well, potential framerate

formal helm
#

so on 60hz it's basically that there's no change after 60 fps right?

bitter halo
#

!guide

swift tinsel

bc your monitor can only refresh so fast

ah okay

formal helm
#

so I guess it becomes even more fluid

swift tinsel
#

essentially, so the higher your hz/refresh rate the more frames your monitor can show

astral axle
formal helm
#

yeah

swift tinsel
#

yeah it reallllllly smooths out the output

formal helm
#

well I went from 10 fps to 60 fps now

#

life changing

swift tinsel
#

lmao yea thats a nice upgrade

formal helm
#

well 60 bc I've capped it

formal helm
#

idk how much it goes to tho

#

can't be arsed trying it when there's no change anyway either

swift tinsel
#

if its 60hz then that's the effective cap

astral axle
formal helm
#

yeah

#

should cap on league too

#

league was also a game changer

plush roost
#

My m+ team legit just spammed that gif when it was time to play for like 4 months

#

So fucking good

formal helm
#

I just hate that midnight comes out

#

just as my semester starts

#

ffs

#

why couldn't it start a bit earlier

#

🙁

barren plume
#

dwarf best rogue race for alliance? or is it Nelf with the shadowmeld

bleak night
#

depends on if you need stoneform or meld more that season

#

but dwarf is ugly

#

and nelf is not

#

so

#

ez choice

sour horizon
#

and flips!

tulip light
#

just saw the pin about upcoming tuning. im not even mad idc anymore but can anyone explain what data this is based on?

it makes absolute 0 sense how are the coming up with those decisions

hazy breach

Beta

lucid jackal

our output gets reduced while we are not even close to an outlier / top performer

We are close to the top though

And they nerfed the top by like 15%

Lmao more nerfs and mage sits pretty every tier

hazy breach
#

As we only aoe nerfs

hazy breach
#

And frost also got huge nerfs

lucid jackal
#

Lol

tulip light
#

since i havent played beta i might not - but feel free to explain

shell willow
#

Looking forward to blasting

lucid jackal
#

There's not much to explain exactly haha

#

Sub was just quite powerful

tulip light
#

ok then i might just be confuse bc not a single review / stream shows it

lucid jackal
#

It was worse than Frost and arcane but Frost and arcane got as eleem said, like a 15-20% Nerf

lucid jackal
tulip light
#

im more than happy to find out about all that stuff once the raid opens, we get more tuning etc so im happy about all that

lucid jackal
#

And it's also the whole mentality of "if your not first your last" people have where if you aren't one of the 5 thanos God tier dps Ur dogshit

#

Like sub was very much low s or a tier for these types of tier lists for key damage

tulip light
#

for raid i dont bother being top or bottom but m+ is just god awful

lucid jackal
#

So getting. 3% Nerf while the big dps specs are getting a 20% Nerf puts us in a good spot

tulip light
#

that sound sweet

"if u cant go up, wait for higher ups to fall"

lucid jackal
#

No clue

vagrant finch
#

One more tuning pass and I can finally check out the assa channel. How are they in there? Are they as cool as us?

brisk onyx
#

Whatever, will this narrow the gap in aoe between DS and Trickster?

hazy breach
#

Yes, tricksters probably only like 15% ahead now

tribal blade
#

arms warr in my guild in shambles rn

#

he's pretty angry

Is fuus list updated with all the changes?

it's fun!

sour horizon
#

well not true, I had a undead in Cata I tanked with coz ravage or devastate, one of em did the flippy attack on fem UD

#

then I deleted years ago

karmic harbor
#

guys is it true, rogue is dead?

#

🤤

bleak night
#

yeah probably

sour horizon
#

thats why we were all undead in OG Vanilla

lilac stag
#

Something else change

#

nn. Just saw the aoe / cleave.

#

Was thinking ST kekdog

serene notch
#

look whoever is making blizzard think we need nerfs needs to stop -_-

lucid jackal
#

2% Nerf just reroll

#

(ignore the fact that mage got a 15-20% Nerf)

#

Just roll arcane

serene notch
#

lol

summer lynx
#

Why does it always seem like if sub is ahead of sin sub gets nerfed till assassination is ahead of it? do the devs just want people to play sin more lol?

serene notch
#

so funny you said that watch zorthas RN saying its still not enough atm

sour horizon
#

seeing sub doing well then nerfed before season start or just after

#

same old same old

serene notch
#

i was just talking some shit, really its still beta so whatever. lets see the real stats start rolling in a few weeks in.

serene notch
#

you 100 parse needs to be LESS then a green parse arcance mage hello?

lucid jackal

#

No

#

Untimed or unfinished keys get a parse and finished keys dont XD

#

Parse in beta fske anyway

south pelican
#

Are the nerfs that just came out bad for sub? Seems small

chrome palm
#

Yeah I’m just wondering because you’re playing at probably about the limit of what sub can do, but I don’t know if the same can be said of that mage

#

How was your priory damage against arcane?

sour horizon
south pelican
#

Ye seems kinda small I suppose

plush roost
#

My napkin math said we lost 1.9m damage out of 274m damage

#

In a key i did

#

But i probably misses something

#

What’s the state of sub atm in both pre patch and beta? Competitive or is it grim

chrome palm
#

Not worth logging onto sub for prepatch

#

The spec is fine or even good in beta

narrow shadow
#

Rogue is useless in prepatch in general

#

Hope it will be okay in midnight

#

I BELIEVE

brisk onyx
#

nobody care about prepatch, and actually, this prepatch was particularly boringdead

kind edge
#

this prepatch was about to config the new UI. thats it.

keen dome
#

Actually it's about planning your new idle spot in the expansion.

rain stratus
#

You guys reckon Sub will be the best solo leveling spec come midnight?

keen dome
#

Sure

sour horizon
#

this prepatch was for gearing farming alts and picking what alts to play xD

tribal blade
#

because they have such a massive amount on their plate for midnight

brisk onyx
#

true

keen dome
#

but it's w/e.

#

It's functional!

tribal blade
#

yeah they really did the bare minimum with it

#

feels like they put like 1 person on it

#

who had like half a day to do it

celest iron
#

I hate the new sub in keys that is all I have to say. My BM hunter requires more brain power. I am so sad

sour horizon
#

what?

#

bm is even more braindead then ever

stone light

Subtlety

Trickster: Nimble Flurry effect reduced to 65% of skill damage (was 75%)
Trickster: Clever Combatant crit chance for Shuriken Storm reduced to 15% (was 20%)

how?

I want to track Coup de Grace with the cooldown manager. But I have the feeling it's bugged. My Icon doesn't change from Escelating Blade to Coup de Grace when it's up. It only changes to Coup de Grace after I actually used the ability and then it changes to escelating blades when I get a stack again. Does anyone also have this problem or might it be my additional cooldown manager addons?

brisk onyx
#

That's how it works; you can only "see" 4 stacks of EB, and then you know that coup can be used now

blazing dawn
tribal blade
#

wait let me check, i haven't actually looked yet

#

mm nvm

#

yeah it's stupid

lethal pasture
#

hey new to rogue here, making some macros. Do you always want to Shuriken storm as you shadow dance?

finite crow
#

nah

tribal blade
#

if you're playing trickster you want to go into dance with high CP and insta sectec

lethal pasture
#

hmm do you ever shuriken then in ST? as trickster

hazy breach
lethal pasture
#

i know its not in the recommended macros, is it bad having a macro combining SB/SD/ST?

finite crow
#

should be fine you want to use st in dance anyway

surreal willow
#

It's been three weeks since I started playing wow, but I feel like I can't seem to get my DPS right, am I missing something big?

short radish
#

when balance doesnt exist because it's prepatch

#

wait a few more weeks then come back when its a whole new game

surreal willow
#

arcane mage and warlock meta DPS scored 10 points, while the sub rogue received 7.5 points thats not a 25% dpsdifference is it

short radish
#

who knows probably

#

balance can come at any time

#

when you least expect it

lilac stag
#

What the fuck is this shit sheet? garf_sit

hazy breach
#

What the hell is that sheet lmao

short radish
#

idk some dude makes it every tier

#

totally 0 bias

lilac stag
#

good lord it’s too early for this

short radish
#

and the fact that rogue is 2.5 and not 0.5

#

for utility

#

shows how much he knows about rogue

lilac stag
#

Go back to TBC everyone.

#

Oh wait they fixed armor values

lilac stag
#

how to chose your main in 1 easy step.

Step 1: Find something you have fun on.

hazy breach
#

All rogue specs have the same survivability despite sub having effectively 10% more hp and taking 10% less damage than the others is interesting

warm marlin
#

what did mm do to pekto for him to give it a 0 for fun omegalul

hazy breach
#

Clearly feral is tankier than sub garf_sit

lilac stag
#

too bad muachlebrah doesn’t have a sheet. We could compare and contrast. garf_sit

alpine wraith
#

the ancient magics

slate marlin
#

why is arms a 6.5 in st

lilac stag
#

Spreadsheet gaming? peepono
Spreadsheet Main Gaming? poggers

slate marlin
#

no a 7 in st

#

wtf

#

arms dealing less than tanks

warm marlin
#

sub also being in the bottom third prio from what i can tell is very interesting

#

i wonder if this has something to do with him playing deathstalker without using dn

#

and not having a hero tree

lilac stag
#

and only pressing 2 buttons

tribal blade
slate marlin
#

aug getting an 8 and a 9 respectively

azure thicket
#

spread doesn't quantify what the gearing situation iss

warm marlin
#

it's actually tied for 4th worst prio in the game in that sheet

#

insane

azure thicket
#

reeeeee

lilac stag
#

at least our tier list in here is supported by science and clearly defined organization

slate marlin
#

while being a spec that relies on other specs for its dmg

warm marlin
#

my goat charrend would disagree

slate marlin
#

ive seen how he deals with swirlies

warm marlin
slate marlin
#

we should do a tierlist tierlist

#

with fuu on top ofc

dusty quartz
#

Hey... just levelling my first rogue for a long time. As sub atm. My cheap shot opener is often immediately triggering a shadowstrike straight afterwards, but im 100% sure im not pressing shadowstrike. Is that... normal? I cant see it mentioned anywhere

dusty quartz
#

ah ok ty, ill have another look through

slate marlin
#

pretty sure is this one

dusty quartz
#

Got it - thanks! Deffo that one

#

It crits insanely hard for 50%.. pretty good

slate marlin
#

yeah its a way to use the stuns without losing too much finisher dmg or a shadowstrike dmg

dusty quartz
#

I was planning on going assassination eventually but im having too much fun as sub

slate marlin
#

just play what you enjoy

#

try stuff at max level tho, stuff changes from leveling

azure thicket
#

also when everyone is in m0 gear it looks like

#

we're gonna be in that baseline other classes are tuned against

dusty quartz
#

I havent played Rogue since TBC, complexity put me off tbh, now they are "pruned" im giving it another go

lilac stag
dusty quartz
#

xD

lilac stag
#

glad you’re enjoying it. much nice than seeing the typical 8 haven’t played tour in 4 years this is shit reaction we tend to attract. kekdog

dusty quartz
#

Ton of fun levelling so far but only at 60 so we'll see at max level

hazy breach
#

In prepatch,but not on the beta

dusty quartz
#

Thought so, seems to hit like a truck

lilac stag
dusty quartz
#

Haha.. yeah i am tbh. reminds me a lot of classic/TBC so probably a bit of nostalgia too

lilac stag
#

We maintain our crown of worst leveling experience in wow to this day.

surreal willow
#

any other buff I should be tracking that I don't know about? or all these enough

lilac stag
#

first goto talents and change deathstalker to trickster.

surreal willow
#

I went back to DS which I enjoy more

slate marlin
#

well its more purple

#

happy valentines day everyone

surreal willow
#

also, I can't figure out when Eviscrate will turn into Coup de Grace in Trickster

lilac stag
#

Look at your buffs to track

surreal willow
#

and should I wait for Shadow Dance to hit it?

lilac stag
#

4 stacks of unseen blades will change evis to coup

Storm is used in dance as first builder, but you want full CP going into dance with trickster so you dance + Sectech

tribal blade
#

useless button

#

i have to say this is the first time in a long time where it feels like there's a good balance between how our builders gen CP and deal damage

surreal willow
tribal blade
#

you can save it for defensive value

#

people tend to start combat in keys with strike from stealth because it ports you and you enter combat faster

#

but if you're following your tank in melee i don't see why not pressing storm from stealth

#

either way it's damage you're doing outside dance so it's not nearly as important as what you're doing in cds

surreal willow
#

you're right I was just thinking about the maximum damage I could deal before the burst so I was using SS to hit all the mobs in the area

#

I think it will deal more damage than Shadow Strike hitting with Shuriken Storm

#

is there something here that I don't know?

#

if there are around 8 mobs (or more) in the area, doesn't Shuriken Storm deal more damage than Shadow Strike?

tribal blade
#

you can do it on a case by case basis

slate marlin
#

out of dance and also as a one time the dmg difference is negligible

surreal willow
#

should I choose Shadow Strike to position myself and Shuriken Storm for damage?

hazy breach
#

It doesnt really matter

tribal blade
#

you're slightly overcomplicating it, your real damage will come from what you do in dance and blades windows

surreal willow
#

hoooow, even 0.1% isn't important to you? 🥺

#

I think I need treatment

wheat elk
#

@lilac stag still believe in tuning?

slate marlin
#

i dont think its even .1%

surreal willow
hazy breach
slate marlin
#

In comparation to the other specs who were above sub**

hazy breach
#

If you nerf the best specs by 15% and nerf sub by 2-3%

#

Thats a buff

slate marlin
#

its a nerf to the spec a buff to its relative position

tribal blade
#

yeah a bunch of other specs got taken out back and shot

#

it's nuts

slate marlin
#

honestly they didnt shoot arcane hard enough

tribal blade
#

sub got a very small nerf

wheat elk
tribal blade
#

what they did to arms is confusing

slate marlin
#

i think they are trying to reduce overall dmg

#

to their st/aoe goals

wheat elk
#

and we were not in s state that the nerf of the other specs will affect our spot in a comp regardless

slate marlin
#

but arms nerf make no sense even then

wheat elk
#

unholy and arcane still far better

tribal blade
#

yeah arms wasn't even dominating

wheat elk
#

even lock

#

and many more specs

hazy breach
slate marlin
tribal blade
wheat elk
proper eagle
#

Arms seriously?

tribal blade
#

that's just insane

#

they actually pulled a joker from TDK on arms

slate marlin
#

demo is 15-20%

#

idk about uh

tribal blade
#

i heard their cope in the arms disc is that there's some upcoming aura buff or something

#

which doesn't really make sense

#

adjusting the breakdown and then leveling off with an aura buff

#

but you would think they would do it all in 1 go

#

rank 1 warr barely beating the tank now

slate marlin
#

this is a magisters 18 in beta

#

with the nerfs and quick math demo ends up at 213k

#

arcane 173k

tribal blade
#

that's good

slate marlin
#

suub what 185k

#

or something

hollow spear
#

How can we sit here and say that spec X is still much better when stuff isn't even live

tribal blade
#

it doesn't equate to 3% in a key

#

because there's a lot of ST in keys

slate marlin
#

thats why i said quick math

tribal blade
#

unless you're pulling trash on every boss

lilac stag
slate marlin
#

im not to go all in depth

#

when theres 6 weeks left of tuning until m+

#

then more tunign after that

tribal blade
#

oh yeah this is still fake numbers

slate marlin
#

and while this changes arent even live

hollow spear
#

I say to you all

#

Stop the cope

slate marlin
#

what cope

hollow spear
#

Hang rogue on the wall

slate marlin
#

im playing rogue

hollow spear
#

Kiss it goodbye

#

It's literally over for us

slate marlin
#

at some point i had to accept im a rogue player

#

i love it

#

idc if its dogshit ill just make my own key

hollow spear
#

Uhdk and warlock are just way too good, our raid spots are gone

slate marlin
#

thats true

#

we wont see rogues anywhere

lilac stag
#

sweet I can AFK CE

slate marlin
#

even better

lilac stag
#

best tier ever

tribal blade
#

i'm playing rogue no matter what 😉

slate marlin
#

they need the atrophic but we deal 0 dmg

lilac stag
hollow spear
#

Won't even see rogue in my warband

slate marlin
#

so we can just apply poison and /dance

tribal blade
#

i have to say it feels nice going into this knowing i'm not gonna push title

#

so i don't need to worry about M+ tuning and meta bs

slate marlin
#

same

#

season starts same time as my midterms

#

or midexams however you call them

tribal blade
#

watching blizz's tuning when you're hard sweating in keys is mindblowingly awful

slate marlin
#

and a bit later my finals

#

idc about this season as much as i care about getting my degree

#

i dont want to spend another year at uni

#

im tired of studying

tribal blade
#

haha!

#

glgl

hollow spear
#

One tricking in combination with title push is masochism imo

slate marlin
#

the russian sub guy

#

full pugging

hollow spear
#

Peak masochism

slate marlin
#

that guy hates life

tribal blade
#

i did the same thing too

slate marlin
#

hes darth vader his pain fuels him

tribal blade
#

just not at his level

hollow spear
#

He's in it for the love of sub

slate marlin
#

yeah graham but you are not as cool as him

tribal blade
#

I'M NOT

#

for sure not

#

he's insane

lilac stag
#

Guess I should update this. Eh?

slate marlin
#

he makes russian accent sound cool af

tribal blade
#

i like listening to him rage when someone does something stupid

#

and gets him killed

slate marlin
#

sounds like a murloc when he does that

lilac stag
#

Do we want pre-patch or beta meme?

tribal blade
slate marlin
#

beta

tribal blade
#

everyone and their mother has been coming in here hard dooming because they play sub on the prepatch and think it's a dead spec

slate marlin
#

i refuse to think blue channel cares about prepatch

lilac stag
#

it’s going on right infront of you.

slate marlin
#

oh noo my subtlety rogue is 2 buttons!! 95% same rotation without irrelevant cds

tribal blade
#

i was saying wait for apex from the start

#

it's not a small thing we gain

slate marlin
#

apex sounds cool

#

i dont have beta so i havent tried it

tribal blade
#

it's kind of like it removed 1/3rd of the rotation baseline

#

w/o the min maxes

#

because no more refunds

lilac stag
#

I love that people are triggered enough to tag me over prepatch tuning

tribal blade
#

add the min maxes on top of it and it adds much more depth

slate marlin
#

yeah i think rogue is pretty well off after the pruning

#

i 100% get why outlaw mains are upset tho

tribal blade
#

as a sub main i love the outlaw changes

slate marlin
#

losing crakshot.....yikes

#

i like them too

tribal blade
#

but yeah i understand why they don't like it

#

it's WAY easier to understand now

slate marlin
#

i think its healthier to not rely on 100% ar uptime

tribal blade
#

that's healthy

#

it's also healthy for rtb to not need a degree to understand

slate marlin
#

rtb changes are great

#

i hate how ace is a 2 pointer tho

tribal blade
#

keeps rng on the spec while being very straightforward on reroll rules

slate marlin
#

and 2nd point is worthless

tribal blade
#

i thought the 2nd point gave more % chance so i was confused at first

#

until i realized it just gave more cp

slate marlin
#

ace refund should be followed by a Bte, not a builder

tribal blade
#

yeah would be cool

slate marlin
#

but overall its great

tribal blade
#

but it's a very nice feeling when you get like 5 ace procs back to back to back

slate marlin
#

im leaning towards assa more this expansion

tribal blade
#

i haven't even set up sin yet

slate marlin
#

i love dots

#

and sub doesnt have dots anymore

tribal blade
#

but if it plays like old sin there won't be much to learn

slate marlin
#

🙁

tribal blade
#

i find that an issue for pvp

#

and maybe some edge cases

#

but specs like outlaw don't have a dot and are fine

#

so who knows

slate marlin
#

oh yeah ofc

#

i just like dots

#

as a thing

#

to set them and track them

#

its my thing

tribal blade
#

i was thinking about them replacing backstab with hemo

#

and then hemo putting a dot on the target

#

not a big one

lilac stag
slate marlin
#

what i want is baseline goomblade bc its purple

#

make it the new backstab icon for what i care

lilac stag
#

Assuming you enjoy reactionary gameplay ye

slate marlin
#

what outlaw needs is a way to craft main hand early without fucking yourself up

#

pls blizzard normalize sht for swords (and skyfury)

tribal blade
#

would be nice to not be tied to skyfury to deal dmg

#

i think this new version of sub wants skyfury more than ever before

#

because more sht is big value with apex

iron whale
#

I wish sub clones looked like this.

plush roost
plush roost
plush roost
#

If anything skyfury just makes your inbetween dances a bit more consistent

#

Probably like, 1 extra apex proc

tribal blade
#

yeah when i was playing beta sub before the bug fixes and no skyfury energy felt completely fine

plush roost
#

Which is gud obv, but its not like tww where skyfury is like 3 extra finishers in cds

tribal blade
#

makes sense yeah

plush roost
#

I could see a world where u play PE over warning signs with skyfury tho...

#

Since skyfury is essentially a 20% atkspeed buff and warning signs is 25%

tribal blade
#

oh interesting

#

especially for heavy aoe i can see that yeah

plush roost
#

Havent tried it yet, PE just feels soooo bad

#

But it should be gud

tribal blade
#

yeah playing without warning signs feels REALLY bad

#

i gave it a try and was immediately like this is not it

#

in ST at least

plush roost
#

Ye i think next time i have a shaman im gonna try a crit heavier build with PE finality and 687 haste

#

See how it goes

hazy breach
#

Idk it's like 2% more damage compared to like 15% more combo points during dance

plush roost
#

I should give DB a try

#

No lashe just... idk seems bad

hazy breach
#

No prio type shit

#

Doesn't seem very good though

torpid snow
#

Does anyone have a reliable addon that shows my racials/trinkets/potions?

plush roost
#

Full send aoe no st no prio no bitches

plush roost
#

caps

slate marlin
#

Bosses are fun

#

So obviosuly 5 min m+ bosses is more fun

hazy breach
#

Like 2% more aoe at the cost of 9% st doesn't seem worthwhile

slate marlin
#

Win win

plush roost
#

Ye not really

torpid snow
plush roost
#

Cant u just disable everything and just use the trink racial pot tab?

tribal blade
#

i have a super clunky way to fix that without using an addon

#

you just move an action bar into your UI
