The shadow clones dont clone themselves for damage but u still get your sht and all other benefits afaik
Currently a gain to not cancel aura it in big aoe
Since the phys part will spawn a clone
So u get 6sht with apex sec tec
Good deal
If premed bug wasnt in itd be way better
I see
Thanks for clarifying. I missed that
or my brain is getting dull over there 
huge buffs
getting all these bug fixes is kinda mind blowing
maybe they're actually going in a new direction dev wise
Ye, that's been my positive outlook on the whole situation. I overall like the changes, but the real core is that it should be easier to build up and improve versus the spaghetti before.
Hopefully.
Is 2 sectech in blades supposed to be consistent on beta ?
how does the dance/Sb function with CdG? does all attacks get the buff if sent 0.1 s before they fade? or does it have to be up for the full attack?
huh?
Up for full attack
alacrity
aa i see
it feels like sub is missing a button atm to me
but i agree with you i think this is a strong base to work on
Ye, I agree.
it just means now they can add more to sub and it won't be in danger of being convoluted
I think it needs one more button to do something like a "Every dance you get 1 stack and can consume it to get x stacks" or like, a Symbols or something
I have zero idea what would really work and am just speculating.
But I do think it could use additional button or mechanic.
yeah there's a billion different directions you can take it
last one i heard was something to do outside dance that makes you lead up to a stronger dance
My favourite dumb idea is a Netherprism button. Every Sectec or Dance or something is +1 stack that gives Mainstat. It goes to say, 8. And you can consume it anytime via a button.
i would be down for it if it didn't reset on death
So you can build up to it, or pop it early if needed. Giving Sub it's on demand explosion
I feel like it would have too, but at the same time it'd be independant of trinkets, etc.
But just something to play around.
the only thing i didn't like about prism was losing all the stacks
felt way too punishing at times
Yeah.
I don't think it'd hurt as much if it wasn't a trinket. Since it'd be in addition to everything else.
yeah true
i had the idea of nightblade coming back as a ST dot only applicable to 1 target
but then it would created the DS issue
unless the dot didn't require you to attack that target
another was bringing back flag or something like it except it only deals lash dmg
Don't bring anything back, rework goremaw for it
Like every goremaw use adds 1 stack of the sylv dagger effect
thing is goremaw wouldn't add a button baseline
but yeah they definitely need to do something about goremaw
Yeah
we kinda don't need energy anymore
Banshes Bane should be a thing, the sylv dagger proc
We never really did
think th problemw ith sylvanas effect was the combo point integration
Nod probably
blizz moves away from complicated things
at least to some degree
sht/shadowcraft/apex is a big mess if you consider that
and can be designed easier, but there was no attempt to do so
It's not sub rogue if SHT / Shadowcraft / Shadowed Finishers isn't broken or weird or janky in some way
yeah the entire apex is very confusing to figure out
I like it's Clones. I like them going hard into shadow clones
That's what we've said for ages. It's a really good pick to focus on. It's cool and thematic and ties it closer to our queen
im new on the spec eny advice for energy management¿
you don't need to think about it, really. outside of cooldowns you do minimal damage and don't need enrgy anyway.
And in cooldowns you've got plenty.
you can play sub without an energy bar currently
if you find a way to starve yourself you're doing something very wrong
there'll be moments where you can't press a gcd
which is perfectly normal
so long as you're doing the rotation correctly your energy will play itself
then i need to chill and dont spam to much
you can spam
you'll just not be able to fill every gcd
outside dance that is, inside dance you should be able to fill every gcd
yeah that's normal dw
the funny thing is this is the best we've been able to press gcds outside dance in a LONG time
last time must have been DF with vigor and tea talented
i need to set up sin some time soon
my goal is to have all 3 specs fully set up going into midnight
outlaw took quite a bit of tinkering to get everything right, sin should be much easier
Yeah, same
questions out side of sd / inside of sd - on two targets am i always use bp feels kinda bad
if they continue with that pace, i have a feeling that midnight will be a really great subtlety expansion
they made things simpler but also they can add things now
maybe we get more clone things
Strip it down to 1 then build it back to 10
can i get an ai clone to play keys for me if i don't feel motivated?
yes only those two
thanks 
and for outlaw nothing 0
for sin only deathmark
not KB
basically any major cd
wait a second
holy fucking shit
i was testing sin without poisons on
holy
mother
of
god
i had that happen quite a bit
NO WONDER
its easy to forget poisons
i did that so many times while pushing during S2 of TWW haha
as sin
till i got a huge WA to remind me
ok this is way better
sin feels pretty fucking good on aoe, the CT change is banger
tbh would not even be mad if reflection came back
Are you pressing envenom or just spamming CT until everything has dots first? Cuz one of those is way more fun than the other imo
they keep talking about just spamming CT, even if all are dotted
ang ignoring CPs
(in high target count)
but it probably gonna get patched
Gameplay ✨
POSION TOGGLE
my demand is vindicated once again
i was just testing on 5 target dummies so spreading till all has bleeds
only 2 CT casts for that
but after pushing as sin for the entire of S2 this feels pretty chill to me
half the brain power required for sin in aoe now
but more required than sub i think
yeah it's annoying at this point
there should also be a warning when you don't have poisons on
actually i dunno, there are points at which specs like sin actually take off crippling to not fuck gathering in keys
ai made the dream work 😄
oh shit nice
would need to adjust the prompts for assasination, but iam sure its feasable
every hour isnt so bad
bring back poison charges!
of it was anything below 30mins then id be annoyed
i think if sin is tuned high enough
this spec is gonna be the meta rogue spec
at least in keys
seems like prio is very good
me thinks someone does not want to hear that word so often
Especially not when someone is testing assa checks notes WITHOUT POISONS
Old man is washed up like the rest of us

hey hey hey normally when i swap to sin i get a big ass WA in my face yelling at me to put them on 😉
despite some inconveniences i'm so happy they're gone
The cpu load reduction factor is the only upside I’m experiencing
Really wish they wouldn’t have destroyed the ui aspect of WA
that one made a big difference for me
Idk I’m very frustrated with both blizzard and WA for the rug-pull
And with available addons I can only get my ui into Uncanny Valley territory of my old setup
Where it’s close-ish but far enough away to be annoying or permanently look off
I’m of the mind where if they’d have gone with a staggered approach vs scorched earth secret value and slow walk back WA would have been less inclined to just drop the project entirely
Esp since Blizz said they were going to use a staggered approach
Idk seems like the point was to have WA drop their project
Whole point was blizzard controlling buffs/debuffs in combat.
Just use enhanced quality of life or any other addon that tracks this sorta stuff
but for me its fun to play around so. sure somebody will have done it better already, but i just like doing those small things for myself
how does it change rotation
I think its performance
a lot of the new stuff controlls how addons implement things, making it more difficult to waste a lot of cpu cycles
even some of the worse offenders like elvui are now fairly harmless in terms of fps impact
its like 1/3 of what it was before if even
Probably still gonna have fps issues in raid 
main thing is it reintroduces the refund system back to sub
gives you something to react to
probably, the engine rly needs some work
many implementations are far from ideal
And some janky shit like strike at full cp to trigger it
And canceling it in aoe for deathstalker 
i have yet to try doing that on the beta
it feels dirty
oh lol that's right
just wait till they remove the ability to cancleaura the buff
Probably will
And then you are gonna feel great using your 7 sht stacks on eviscerate in a 10 mob pull
Instead of on BP

well wait till expac after midnight for DS fixes
at this rate DS will be playable in 2030

!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet

Hey, did AI create this WA??
!sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
addon, but yes
I hope they fix things. Having to cancelaura doesn’t feel good
You dont have to cancelaura anything 
trickster gang 
hello, just curious about patches for midnight, was the latest update the last for midnight or will there be more in time?
ah ok tysm
yall think sub still going to be meta raid spec?
i mean for sure 1 of the 3 specs has to be
i pray
dont want to not get taken into hc raids because people think we not meta and we cant clear bcs of that
You’re not getting into heroic raids due to ilvl more than anything else
You’re taking a rogue unless tuning is absolute dog shit across the board.
nothing to see
I used to bind backstab/shadowstrike to 1 and evis to 3. Since I would like to start a heated exchange about keybinds that will end up with someone posting jpc's binds:
What's your take on binding stab to Q and evis to E?
well Jetpack Cat needs her binds closer because her paws are tiny
Asd strafe forward strafe, q backstab w rupture (rip) e sec tec r evis
W is such a core rotation spot i dont even know what to put there anymore
Oh wow, you're a W binder
Maybe goremaw if its ever good...
I think my brain wouldn't be able to process W not being forward
I redid my binds in cata so i could play pvp (i was 8 and didnt understand ctrl or shift binds)
So i wanted qwerty to be binds for rotation
I have shuriken/powder on Q E
XD
mine is shuriken/powder on R T
kick on q, rest on the 12 mousebuttons 
Q blades E kick
Shift w storm, ctrl w powder xd
that sounds like pain
I couldn‘t play on those 4kg MMOs mice 😄
Nah its super chill because my brain says aoe button w, and that lets me not have to move fingers outside of my pinky
Ct is ctrl w and fok shift w as well
Kick has to be F
Shift w blade rush, ctrl w blade flurry
My kick is t, shift t focus kick
My hands are not meant for ctrl or alt as modifiers
tendonitis incoming 😄
I only use ctrl or alt for binds I don't really use rotationally
Idk i played piano as a kid im used to moving my fingers weird
I'm unironically thinking of a pedal modifier
Very flexible
like I use alt+E for health pot
Okay thats demonic bro
You must die a lot
nope
Im left-handed so its very easy for me to hit combos
Alt is such a weird place for me, i dont like moving my thumb off spacebar haha
I don't really jump much lol
and my thumb rests close to the left edge of my spacebar when I'm gaming
I jump a lot when im backstabbing just to feel some apm
Yeah still unhealthy to spread them this much for an ability you press that often.
Mine where like this too for almost 20years, but i recently changed them for more ergonomic binds and after i got used to it my hand feels way less tired
I have alt and ctrl mwu and mwd for stuff but its usually like...buffs or some shit
I have feint on mwu
but I zoom in and out for things and shift I use for action bar paging for professions
I have feint on shift+mb4
Since my hand rests on asd and not qwe idk if im even stretching my fingers out. Its essentially already resting my pinky on shift and i just shift my entire hand to the upperright to move my pink down rather than shifting the finger so idm
But maybe im young and dont feel.anything yet
If it ever starts hurting then id know im in trouble haha
I am totally convinced that this would be enough to play midnight subrogue
can you send me your talents for m+ beta and trinkets your running?
Stop derailing mapko
testing now some stuff would be much appriciated Charrend
Aoe
To go st its crazy but u swap potent for wm and thats it
Coldblood forced induct deeper obv
You now have to give us your three spiciest keybinds now Mapko
Class tree is mosy utility
Or they'll prune sub even more
shadwo focus better then tornado?
Gaze of the alnseeker + puzzlebox/feather/critflask/passive
your running vigor?
Mostly this i guess 
and playing as 2min spec or jsut sending?
since we play 2min trinket
U play as a 2min with pbox
I have suffered an Event. A pantomime in a library. Nothing in WoW can touch that experience of chaos.
k
But idk if pbox is worth it anymore
Just something i was fiddling with
Most importantly you want 200ish haste, 578 or 687 haste
This number matters
Not the %
Its ur dance breakpoints
Also youll feel like shit without windfury on lowhaste but it be what it be
ya noticed that without shaman
The flag? Eh
We really just want the haste breakpoint anything after is excessive
Were so sht and energy saturated from our apex talent
[Freightrunner's Flask] 90 sec on use crit also good
Just thinking if 2min trinket is worth you know
In theory ye
That if it werent for dance length we probably wouldnt play any haste at all
Ye crit flask will be good when its not 467 crit
true true
yeah not used to the numbers yet your right
Ye w.e the math works to
I always forget 1.5 are understatted a bit since cd ans blah blah
Any betters on a 1.5 mastery trinket in the 12.0.7 raid btw?
I feel it in my bones
i think there will be 1 or 2 trinket pass tuning
But tbf I expect lots of trinket tuning to be done
some of the numbers dont make sense
big geniuses in town
you saw the new filter hachadino?
what filter?
i saw there were some cool updates to the addon but havent really checked
you can use now important filter to track with player auras for sub these two buffs and get rid of idk cataclym event buff
yeah but the arrow explains well
you have player auras with important filter on and you just see these two buffs and get rid of all the bullshit
like idk its event xyz buff
I’m actually about to play trickster again because I don’t want to manage cancelaura for DS lol
trickster is quite ahead in aoe in midnight
even after all the fixes for DS krangles iirc
for st they were sameish i think?
Deathstalker should only pull ahead on large count ae
unlikely flawless is quite strong
it is a perma 20% or so mastery steroid+fazed
at lvl 90 sec tech applies it again
and coup flurries are very strong
And funnle
you won't use evis in aoe, so would not call it funnel
Meh...
It doesn't though
The more targets you add the worse it gets

Whelp fazed is just much too strong still lol
At least i like the trickster sound design.
Bring back double coup
Sometimes I wish things weren’t so proc reliant
i will never forgive blizz by killing icd things
Sub is very non proc based though
Very little in the rotation is actually random
And sht, which is a bit random, still uses a system that makes it not have much outliers
deathstalker assa better at that
well probably not as much now without spatter as strong as it used to be
sub doesnt really have procs
unless you want to reach and say crits are
I am trying to find an energy bar/combo point set up i can use and be able to move around freely and position where i want but i do not want my health bar attached to it like the blizz default one. anyone have any suggestions for an add on or something that has it?
all addons i was looking at seemed to be only the combo points
sensei has a cool simple one but there are many ui addon things
you can try and choose
ty ill take a look at that one
guarantee you 95% of people who say prio damage
how many dance macros do you guys have atp?
dont know what they're talking of
just 2 for now
and just say it because some streamer did
but 1 is storm+dance so effectively 1
But max said it and I sub to his twitch
2 buttons = 2 macros
don't think I'm making a swifty macro for dance+sectech+blades since I can hit them all pretty easy
idk honestly i can still hit dance strike within 0.2
probs gonna macro trinket to blades with potion or keep natty pot bind
and the delay makes dance strike macro not doable
so meh
just have fast hands

yeah, but you're kinda capped on how fast you can hit dance strike
so even with fast hands, you have to get extra haste to account for it
I'm dancing with full cp so dance strike is kinda w/e
Get that juicy Sectech coup supercharged combo
0.2 secs yeah
You’re going to make me look at logs. Pretty sure I had setech into coup a few dances on Tuesday.
you can sec tech coup if you used premed first
but entering dance with apex or back when shadowcraft it didnt work
im already missing the big boom of sectech double coup
it will take years to recover like when going from wod->legion
or bfa->shadowlands
what about strike?
to get some EB proccs
storm gives EB tho
and its been fixed to no longer random target
Can still just dance/bs macro if you’re at low cp for the macabre. Not the worst thing on earth. Other than that just dance at full cp
there is no reason to use backstab anymore
Still procs a macabre event no?
So you’d just manually dance strike at low and sac a finisher at the end of your dance because you’re too slow and call that a dps gain over just dance stabbing
Low cp, or you’d bs to full cp then dance first
realistically you'd prep your dance to avoid that
Yeh, I’m just saying. Sims don’t always equal what’s actually doable on a 95% + replicable basis
and I'm also saying that scenario is entirely avoidable
shouldn't ever really happen on opener, and you're prepping each dance after that
so its not really a question of simming
They could also just fix the bug and let you macro dance coup and strike
hehehe
☠️
it's always in the chamber whenever I get the chance, its such a funny video
its a top 10 for sure
just the coldest no fucks given
one of the best gino quotes ever said
fwiw it is one of the things we try and make doable, to make them as real world playtime accurate, which is why sometimes alot of small optimizations arent added cuz they arent realistic to pull off alot of the times
Fair
which is why we even added the Shadow dance + strike delay into sims
So what’s optimal now for when you proc a coup directly before dance window. Two separate macros? A dance coup macro and dance strike macro?
Yeah imma just play assa
its not a bug its a feature
kek
if you are big brain you pool some sht
and cancelaura premed as you enter dance
so you can sec tech coup
and still proc apex on next strike
but that is forbidden magic
as you only super overcap sht with blades up
or bl
I dunno, this is some diff between a 95 and 99 parse stuff.
Both will get the job done unless you’re literally in liquid or echo
how much speed should i have
dont worry your coups didnt crit and your unseens didnt double
idk enchant speed
avoidance is a healer issue
I need a NUMBER!!!
tbh after all the fixes to apex and shadowcraft
depends on how much it costs around your parts
we may just natty gear low haste
and just become dinos of mastery
or just change 1 jewelry between st and m+
I haven’t checked in on it in a bit, can you use apex on sec tech or is that still forbidden
Yeah
apex on sec tech is almost neutral
no thiughts
because now we have more sht
"I've gotta ask the boys a question"
"The boys told me this is best"
If you get that ring with giga haste on it
yea my idea was engi helmet or wrist with haste on it
then just change between raid and m+
or that ring
I do like how much people use stats to scapegoat
What’s the single haste stat ring drop off of?
not playing well in this game
Niceu
most of it is practically irrelevant
yea optimizations sometimes are just kinda on the lower end but we are rabid finders of bigger number
95 and 99 is realistically bigger diff made by how fast your guild kills
and crit rng
Need to invent a fake stat called "Skill" or something
The majority of people aren’t going to be able to use the extra .2 sec on dance to fit in a finisher, so yeah pretty moot
For those people being mastery Andy’s would be more beneficial
well it is the other way around sometimes majority of people would lose that gcd
so gear a bit more haste
yep
But but but, ain’t gon have dat much haste friend
you can dance strike natty in 0.2 secs
tbh i will try and make a video about how to limit test your dance usage with haste brain
i can usually do it on 0.1
they do not let you do this unlucky
but also even if you send it faster
Brother have you raided with a non HoF guild? Some of these people mean well, but goodness gracious.
if you don't want premed you need to untalent it
sometimes it does not register after some ms after
rip
and fwiw 0.2s is barely enough for most to fit all their dance gcds in assuming their first gcd is perfect
yeah i would need to check but i’ve had instances where my strike still went off
I reviewed a lot of logs in tww2/3 and ppl be dropping micro gcds all the time
despite my dance buff expired
maybe it had some ms left
you definitely dont want to lose 0.2s with your strike
it has some leeway
for example, second sectec in tfd (including both clone hits) was possible essentially every single pull in raid if you dropped less than 0.1 gcds over the whole dance and had predisorient/presupercharge, no lust required
but i never saw anyone say
i would always err on the side of caution tho
i went over a raid night once and hit it on dimmy 21 times in a row or something
Just join a parsing guild my friend
well double sec tech was a bit of a cheat because you could always dance after and only lose the macabre %
This week it’s your turn for 3 PI’s and we reset if you’re not on pace for a benji
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
which is a big chunk of damage on that hit at least
but mostly an example of how most are dropping micro gcds, it happens a lot more than i think people realize
trickster never helped too
i would recommend more than 0.2s leeway for most prob
im not counting the coup one
it is also not a lot of haste more
so like more than 0.4s leeway counting coup
maybe not so bad now that macro is gonna be standardized but i saw a lot of poor guys dropping gcds in dance 
can you explain this to me, but slower
Is it better for a mid player like myself to focus on Haste or Mastery for general use with a mixture of raid and m+ content? Been confused on stats for a bit
does not work ryldd explained why
we will see how much haste you want for st and aoe/m+
I do wish we could cancel premed!
then just change 1 or 2 items depending
that would be interesting
as it stands around 700 haste for st
and like 200 for m+ seem to be the numbers
but anything can change
from bug fixes to buffs
to nerfs?¿!
I see atm its just kinda swapping gear around to fit the content
yea we got lots of bug fixes that helped sht generation
so now we only really care about the dance duration and to an extend
Sht is certainly an abbreviation of all times
Sod is gone
Combies is better than combo points, imo
good riddance
Sod off I say
rest in piss
Hey i have a question about tricks of the trade. The tooltip says it transfers all my threat to the tank/targetet player.
But when i firsthit a Boss in an M+, i still receive the first hit from him?
First use gives you a 30sec buff then your next hit triggers the threat redirection
bosses often hit the closest target when engaged
no, it was already running
ah yes, makes sense
also the first treat redirection can sometimes be slow
if you want to be sure to not get hit, you can use storm as opening as it allows you to stand outside melee range
Yeah, wait until the boss moves
The amount of times I've prematurely Shadowstriked a boss and been insta-gibbed thinking Tricks would save me....
i mean idk if people remember the previouse raids
just cheat death lil gup
dont need that anyway just dont die
but i had a lot of discussions with our tanks to stand in melee
you just changed my life
on certain fights the boss 100% attacks the closest target first when engaged
np got you
turns out
that's what cheat death was made for
people rather flame you and say skill issue while playing tanks
and stand the furthest away from the boss when engaging
cheat saved me from pulling on both fractillus and oab
oh ryldd already said that 
🤣 tank players are special people
they don't got hands like that
i mostly use it for limit testing
It's the CTE
i was mostly joking
but its true that i had to fight with the tanks tanks to actually move to melee in my raid team
which they then did ~33-50% of the time
glad to hear its not just me that feels like pulling teeth to get tanks to move intuitively
its interesting they're melee but don't understand how to accommodate melee
as a melee, you depend on tank movement a lot
so inherently, you will complain if the positioning or movemet is bad
we have 2x pwar and when they hear movement their choice is to then heroic leap as far as humanly possible away
Play with a wheelchair bdk and you’ll be fine :3
but some boss fights need a lot of good positioning and planing
because bosses have casts too or are not movable at certain parts
for a lot of bosses its whatever bc movespeed but some like Rik are literal speed demons
tanks are usually reactive
their role i mean
so they are used to "this happens -> i need to spot/use defensive"
their job is normally pretty boring so I'd think they'd jump at the chance for something to do lol
the game just does a very poor job to explain or highlight the impact on others
for sure
and don't rly gives rewards for ahead of time planing
I've had more success with tanks that are very m+ active
and certain specs can attack off target for a bit
bc they seem to understand positioning and movement a lot more
which means, not all melee dps are impacted equally
The bottom line is still that if ur a melee player and can’t sit on the boss ur just bad
It’s part of the skill kit of being a good melee player
Optimizing uptime to every ms
yes
ill give you one example of what i talk about
even tho that was agreed on after a short depate
ye that's why I lean on step often when they decide to get erratic
So it doesn’t matter if ur ”good at downtime” cus if the fight has downtime you can’t control ur just benching most melee regardless
amirdrassil lerodar
there is this phase pulsing aoe comes in, you need to stand in an cycle, the position is controlled by the tank
so the tank did not move the boss close to this zone
melee dps can't do damage
You talk to the tank
thats my point
one of the reasons I absolutely hated larodar
ye the convo started talking about tanks being obstinate about movement
Ye well why does it matter if x spec does 10% more dmg from range then?
Cus that’s just not how you should play the fight and is a raid leader/strat issue
Tanks are slaves to the strat sometimes
It’s on the melee to speak up if something is shit tho, ive had amazing tanks and they could still have a blind spot in some melee situations
Just gotta communicate
exactly
that's what we're saying lol
you just repeated the gist of the discussion ^^
me and you constantly asking if we can move the boss another way 
I just hate this opinion
I quit for the tier when my guild turned our smolderon strat from the standard to a more ranged-friendly approach while completely sacrificing melee uptime 300 pulls into prog
Triggers me
oh, did not intend to hit a nerve ^^
Not a single melee is happy shooting offbrand lightning bolts in range group
Ye gotta optimize every second
umm I think so
Like every spec in the game
ret has like..vestiges of it
So nothing lost relatively
depends on your definition, but yes every melee lost the 3yds on "melee" spells
some like ret and udk can just cast most of their repertoire from 30yds anyway
I think uhdk lost theirs with the clawing shadows change
Poor bastards
for midnight
i thought someone told me they had exactly 1 button that was true melee left
i could be cooked
oh nvm they baked the 30 yard range into base scourge strike
I don’t think any melee should be able to do good dmg from distance, like ranged dps levels. Kinda defeats the purpose
ye
crazy btw
Hopefully tuned thereafter

thematically I kinda get it bc they're effectively a necromancer
which is often a caster vibe
I like being in the middle of chaos
same, ranged is lowkey boring
Having to move perfectly, it’s satisfying
played mage for one tier and it was the least exciting tier I've raided
So many fights in the first tier of df were melee movement fights and it was fun
Love it
god I hated that fight
It was kinda annoying but also funny
watching people get yoinked off a ramp and fly off was pretty choice lol
Few bosses that made me hate ranged dps more than on sennarth
I just hate the skating interia movement bit
You also had the wind fight
dathria
Even the shaman totem shit had movement
And ofc last boss with the waves and what not
Kurog
Lowkey best intro tier ever
Most of them are dull and shit
first 2 sub rogues to kill it baby 
Hah ye
Fuck outlaw
Aint falling for that trap
Kinda nostalgic for me too cus it was the last tier I actually enjoyed the game and cared enough to plan and strat. Miss that part the most
must be nice when your tanks are receptive to feedback
every tier is a sub tier
In colour every tier was a sub tier
At least as long as I played
Stealthi was quick to turn to the darkness (ass rogue) after I left
It was genuinely better for prog I think. So no blameo, but i would have played sub at least
single dps is low or not ?
i played Assa until it was nerfed in amirdrassil
then i played sub
was waaay too overtuned at the start to not play it
unpopular opinion^^

it did a lil too much dmg
PI hoarder
i remember igira week 1 was so sillt
i could snipe all the spears perfectly
and still get gapped
i only had 2 out of 3 iirc
jahrl had the lust one on pull
5 ilvls up on most of your raid 
Yeah bro kush and company heliumbagged sin so hard that tier they went medieval on its ass
heliumbagged 
the glory days
im a no lifer on launch

Given the gap id say it was a gnarlroot kill
slacking raid smh
think igira was more op as assa than gnarl
everyone kinda had dmg on that boss
but in igira you stole everyones
or maybe it is gnarl hmm
igira
igira mythic
Huh, possible changes to crests on beta? 20 per level or something.
I only saw the 50% cost for alts thing
A buddy mentioned it might've been hotfixed just now.
20 per step, 80 for a weapon craft or somehting
I don't have beta installed to check, though
i knew i was a genius
How does one know
i worked with other people
hi, can anyone help me with a question regarding secret technique, are there any circumstances there i would want to use it outside of shadow dance?
since if there arent i could use the same keybind for both abilities since shadow dance would switch me into my stealth keybinds
Crafted pieces now require 80 Crests (was 60)```
Yeee
Crests now cost 20 per upgrade (was 15)
Crafted gear now costs 80 crests (was 60)
Each gear track now only accepts a singular type of Crest (Champion Gear accepts Champion Crests the entire time)
Each track has been standarized with 6 total tiers```
always during dance
interessting, think this makes a lot more sense for turbo boost too
Yeah.
20 per step is pretty comfy, 100 per week so a full upgrade a week. Crafted more in line, too.
No huge final step
!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.
i knew this shit was not gonna last
like poisons..
you use it sometimes without dance on like third rotation of cds
to have 2 dances for blades
amen
poisons are the betrayal
they removed them in legion
just to be "surprise, we add them back" later
content
i never recovered from not having fall damage
aight checked out the macro:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Secret Technique
but one thing i dont really understand is that this macro would immediately use secret technique regardless of how many combo point i currently have wouldnt it be better to delay it by one global cool down to be able to fit in a shadowstrike for max combo points?
you can enter dance with full combo points
can and should
so i should optimally delay using shadow dance until i have full combo points?
No you should have full cp before ur dance is ready
- Generally Trickster wants to enter
at full cp and deathstalker with low cp.
Per #subtlety-faq and the guides
@vale pine did rules for some hero trees going into dance with low points get invalidated?
Xd
Fuu what do you do in aoe btw? Still strike for UB and BP?
Or just storm BP?
midnight^^
Storm
Storm procs it
Don’t we shadow strike in dance at 2-3t? Or no
ok ty wanted to check myself there
its more strict in midnight because of apex
its less so in pre patch
apex give more power to dance
why is that?
Because it allows you to spender sht faster, instead of it just piling up and getting more combo points after dance
So as of this moment trickster is the only move¿
Stop trying to make DS a thing. 
Careful, they might hear you and illegally buff bp so DS is the only choice
This isn’t Max’s stream. No devs to be found here.
Otherwise goremaws would have been fixed
I feel like they just forgot
I read it was good for single target and committed to getting set up and comfy with it, ill just say it was a passing hobby
About goremaws / all the HO shit for outlaw
Tbf I’m happy with them fixing so much ahead of launch
Or did they think giving sub infinite energy wouldn’t impact a button that mainly generates energy xd
What are we settling for here, come on they can’t just have multiple specs with absolutely unpickable capstone level talents
sub is way ahead of typical new expansion completion. We’re eating good
Rogue hero talents is a class issue
Which are still directionless
Everything is 2 buttons
Have you even looked at anything on beta?
Nah, atleast other specs have something to track or react to
Your tracking Sectech
😭😭😭😭
Bro it’s 1 macro every 20s cmon surely spriest having like a low cd nuke etc
Ngl im coping
It’s all brain dead
Is there depth? Not really. Nothing has it. Pacing is good. Vibe is good. I like big dam every 25 seconds
I’ll enjoy people coming in here and completely fucking up the 2 button spec.
Its actually quite a conundrum for blozzard because bp is 40% of tricksters overall
They cant just buff bp anymore
Sure they can
Just nerf trickster cleave at the same time
Coup now has a 1.6 second gcd 
Spell is just super strong bc of that potent powders talent, if they do keep buffing it I’m fairly sure ds abuses that more, they have more bp amps bc no cleave like nimble
I mean they can adjust other things if they want to
But idk if they dont fix the mark does it even matter? 
Its just that they would have to buff bp so much for that threshhold to be met with ds > trickster that the class would be batshit op
Since ds is just that behind
Hence, they cant just buff bp to "solve" this "issue"
DS has less BP buffs than trickster does now anyway
When buff eviscerate
Why are they allergic to buffing evis
They’re gonna hit us with like 20% more backstab damage or something
And more melee damage prob

Cant theyd buff aoe
Oh nooo, what would I ever do if they buffed bp another 12%...
they should buff bp enough to be better than evis on st
the dream
your next 3 BP deal 50% more damage and reduce goremaw's cd by 1s per cp spent
I think it should have some effect on sectech, either by allowing an extra sectech without triggering the cd or somehow empowering the next sectech
6 akaari clones 
or Army of the Goats. You summon 3 akaari clones and she copies your next 5 finishers with all 3 clones
10 trees died for this
probably.
DON'T PUT THAT OUT IN THE UNIVERSE
sorry but do any of you know of an addon that can make icons popp up when a spell is offcd or say i can show just numbers of stacks i have of something (buff) as a huge ass number on my screen? something like poweraura
Afaik you can't do that
That's precisely the type of functionality that was intended to be removed
what, to have a big icon show (instead of the spells own icon) or stripping away the icon and only show the number?
!wa
- Can be pickpocketed from kobolds in e.g. The Ringing Deeps. (needs The Final Candle questline completed.)
- Only use it on one weapon. (does not stack)
Both I think
sounds to me like the thing they want to still allow since it has no underlying smart logic
hm that might be ye, meh
Yeah but removing the smart logic stuff unfortunately collaterals into removing a bunch of qol and customization
It is what it is
so ur saying addons cant see if a spell is avail or not?
ehh, on/off cd
dont need no countdown
Might be able to, but you def can't see how long left the cd has
yeah im just having a hard time looking at ingame icons, need big-ass icons that i can distinguish by their shape for when key things are usable and hidden when not 🙁
Welcome to midnight
nah someones gonna make
Must have seen us puzzling about why they don’t list fixes and threw one in lol
I will have to check how that works tomorrow, but that should be a noticeable buff
Curious as to why they didn't touch sectech clones too, but 
A buff for trickster is a win for the good guys
Either they made coup its own clone from apex or regular eviscerate clones now also cleave
step by step who knows
Its true that the thing about the cancel stuff with the sectech and apex talents was shadow fixed?
Is there a link? I couldn't find this post.
Ye just for DN in aoe
Inb4 they make Apex uncancelaura-able
It wasn't fixed, just turns out it wasn't worthwhile anymore
wahoo
It's +-0
good bug fix now give eviscerate 20% buff 
Shrimply not possible
