it legit reminds me of working in illustrator or photoshop

tribal blade
#

haha maybe i won't be completely useless at setting it up then

#

since i have some experience using those programs

minor trout
#

Is the goal basically to have 10CP stored?

lilac stag
#

5

#

one less addon /delete Sensei

alpine wraith
#

you want to have like 3-4

#

sec tech gives 4

#

so you guarantee apex on next finisher

#

and next one if you do the krangle if needed

tribal blade
#

you know what, i think blizz needs to introduce something similar to what we're doing to pool for dances

alpine wraith
#

in my mind if you have 2-3 escalating it is worth to do the apexmaxxing in case you get coup

tribal blade
#

as an ability

#

that would be a good way to add more to the spec

alpine wraith
#

but i havent managed to make it work liek that in sims

#

brain too small

#

in blades you have lots of sht but in normal dances you dont necessarily

lilac stag
#

No one is going to like an idea of doing nothing as a talent to pool for something.

#

we’re legit hands off. Haha

tribal blade
#

just something to build up to dances

lilac stag
#

like flag garf

lilac stag

# lilac stag

The numbers you have there at the top right. is that your shadow techniques charges?
If so what addon did you use to get that?

daring raptor
#

ahr just want the number. so you use arcui?

lilac stag
#

you can do just the number

alpine wraith
lilac stag
#

yes. Arc is WAs for mindnight.

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

but the number isn’t the important part, 5 is

daring raptor
#

this is my ui atm and just want to add a number for the shadow technique next to my combo bar. if i could. but don't want a big addon like arc since i only want this feature. 🙂
don't mind the bottom bar not being aligned propperly. it has been fixed

daring raptor
lilac stag
#

Idk. Looks like a mix of elvui and better cdm? You can’t do it with either. You have to move your technique buff

alpine wraith
#

and we do still run like 200 to 700 haste depending on sims

#

nothing in stone

daring raptor
lilac stag
#

dino just has a hardon for mastery. Ignore Dino when talking stats. omegalul

daring raptor
topaz crow
#

are there any addons besides elvui to change like classic blizzard ui?

#

or only elvui atm

daring raptor
lilac stag
topaz crow
#

already using it

daring raptor
#

there are a bunch

#

of unitframes addons

#

i use enhaceqol for my unitframes

topaz crow
#

i meant like change minimap, quest text

daring raptor
#

and then i have made a texture around it

lilac stag
#

literally Google or search curse forge what you want to change and there’s likely an addon for it

daring raptor
#

minimap i again use enhanceqol

topaz crow
#

oke ill look them up thx

daring raptor
#

EnhanceQOL have so much good stuff if you want a bunch of QOL stuff and want to change stuff like unitframes etc.

lilac stag
#

There’s sooooooooo many options

short radish
#

this is worth a watch

topaz crow
#

oh shit

#

thx also

daring raptor
topaz crow
#

already stole all of ui from rogue streamer xd

tribal blade
#

i think it's worth moving off elvui, every time it breaks the people in my guild who use it are in shambles and can't play the game

lilac stag
topaz crow
#

just want to change where everything is left with blizz ui

short radish
sly shore
#

This is my UI and I use one addon for it smile

short radish
#

it's also a bit outdated

#

but it's good enough

lilac stag
#

elvui is still absolute shit and bloated.

sly shore
#

I don't use elvui

lilac stag
#

Download Quazii if you want an all in one

sly shore
#

Nope

lilac stag
#

They’ve done a good job with keeping it going

sly shore
#

The best addon

#

is Orbit

#

and it's not even close

short radish
#

tbh i think with all of the shitstorm with UIs

#

we need a general UI thread

tribal blade
sly shore
#

Yes

tribal blade
#

looks pretty good

sly shore
#

It's the easiest out of any addon to set up too

tribal blade
#

interesting

sly shore
#

with auto snapping and pixel sizing

lilac stag
#

orbit wasn’t it for me

#

You may like it prophet

topaz crow
#

mine currently looks like this sry bad crop

tribal blade
#

might be yeah if it's user friendly

topaz crow
#

too lazy to open wow

tribal blade
#

but i'm fine with my set up right now, the only issue i'm having is with sht

sly shore
maiden oar
tribal blade

has anyone tried this

#

kinda looks neat

topaz crow

just use bcm

#

its enough

#

imo

maiden oar
#

i am rn

tribal blade
maiden oar
#

probably

tribal blade
#

i assume it is

sly shore
#

all frames have a canvas mode

#

where you decide where everything is placed

lilac stag
sly shore
#

make health bar wider

tribal blade
# sly shore

ok yeah tthis is the kind of setup i like using

lilac stag
#

nah the action bar needs a tweak

sly shore
#

you also have

topaz crow
#

why not put buffs above bar?

sly shore
#

inconsistent border

topaz crow
#

is it preference?

sly shore

I am #1 orbit shill

It took me 45 mins to set up in it's entirety

haughty mural
#

might check it out this evening

#

i still want to get away from arcui

sly shore
#

the dev is super active in his discord too

#

it does everything

lilac stag
topaz crow
#

is arcui like elvui but better?

thin sinew
#

anything is better than elvui

sly shore
topaz crow
#

so elvui is like the bottom barrel?

sly shore
#

at original scale

lilac stag
#

ArcUI is just a cdm/resource setup

haughty mural
#

orbit does everything from cdm/ressource/unit frames ?

#

to your minimap ?

sly shore
haughty mural
#

sounds good

sly shore
#

and for all of those it has the canvas mode so you can choose where stuff is

tribal blade
#

platynator also has the setup with a canvas mode type edit thing

#

i love that

haughty mural
#

so i can be bottom of the meter in style

short radish
sly shore
#

this you just right click the frame in edit mode

#

and it opens the canvas

lilac stag
sly shore
short radish
lilac stag

#

you can set bars to turn a certain colour at certain percentages

nice text center

sly shore
#

he did it just to show colour change smhj

lilac stag
#

smh my head

tribal blade
#

now now boys you both have massive addons dongs

sly shore
soft summit
#

Can someone explain why deathstalker likes to use shadow dance into shuriken storm instead of into sec tech finisher?

lilac stag
tribal blade
# sly shore

oh that would have been tight when everyone was running sin in keys and trying not to proc tea

sly shore
#

I will shill for orbit all day just because the dev is really good and it's easy for anyone at any level to use and understand

#

unlike most addons that get confusing fast

tribal blade
#

i'm a very non-tech person so this looks perfect

haughty mural
#

sold it really good ngl

sly shore
#

like when you go to set it up, you'll see that it is genuinely the easiest

tribal blade
#

it took me years to learn how to make WAs

haughty mural
#

im a tech person but i also want something easy and intuitive in my free time yep

lilac stag
#

if I actually gave a shit about any positioning for group stuff it’s probably a good get. I legit don’t care about the raid frames outside of what blizzard gives. Uuf for player frames. And platy with Jundies for nameplate. Simple enough for my smol ui / brain.

sly shore
#

I got my own plater still

lilac stag
#

fuck plater

sly shore
#

The only reason I keep my plater is because of the cast bar lmao

#

and the dynamic border

tribal blade
#

and then use the addon for just that number

sly shore
tribal blade
#

so i can place it in my CPs

#

ok i might need that

sly shore
#

It automatically extends the white target border around the cast bar for me

soft summit
tribal blade
lilac stag
# soft summit Sorry what? Lol

Dance is how many casts can you get off. Because coup has a 1.2 second gcd we slam Sectech and then coup to get those off asap. DS is all 1 second gcd so you open with storm and just goto town

#

also don’t play DS

sly shore
#

FW probably matters more for it idfk

#

who plays that stink

tribal blade
#

yeah don't need to worry about DS (for now)

#

just hope blizz doesn't pull a TWW tuning cycle and mega buff DS because they see it's under represented

lilac stag
soft summit
lilac stag
#

No

tribal blade
#

btw has any figured out how to track FW

lilac stag
#

In prepatch it’s even ST with Tricky

lilac stag
#

Tricky is better in everything else

haughty mural
tribal blade
#

or does blizz think it's completely unneccessary for us to track our most important buff

lilac stag
#

and you have 3 days of prepatch so please just ignore everything lol

tribal blade
#

maybe

lilac stag
#

@tribal blade we’re playing apex-less deathstalker heroic week if you didn’t get the memo

tribal blade
tribal blade
#

to get buffs

#

i'm down

lilac stag
#

we just need to do more testing once spec goes live

soft summit
haughty mural
#

kinda rough to fix everything in heroic week

tribal blade
lilac stag
# soft summit

When was that page last updated. We’ve all moved on of prepatch like 2 weeks ago and that’s likely pre 8% nerf

tribal blade
#

for midnight it's going to be trickster in all content always

lilac stag
#

No one in here gives a shit about prepatch. Sorry not sorry. If fuu actually updated prepatch each tuning we’ve had I’d be disappointed.

you can always sim yourself

haughty mural
#

📠

lilac stag
#

And yes, I know raidbots says sims not accurate in general. They’re fine for sub.

tribal blade
#

the upcoming raid has a bunch of target swapping too

tribal blade
#

so you're just asking for pain and suffering playing DS

lilac stag
#

@tribal blade dm if you want help setting up sht or anything in arc

#

it’s not bad at all

short radish

blizard hire me ill fix deathstalker

Save DS Grouch please

once they hire me we are good

its also the hiring

haughty mural

they will hire you and put you on arcane mage

instantly

maiden oar
#

oh ok

lilac stag
#

nah they could hire any number of unemployed game devs

#

don’t even need to sell a new AH mount for $90 to do it

maiden oar
#

im not a game dev i am completely unqualified

#

hehe

lilac stag
#

Don’t worry. Neither are blizzard devs

haughty mural
#

besides DS, everything is pretty promising though

lilac stag
#

fearless leader was a lawyer and message board troll

#

you’re already ahead of that @maiden oar

maiden oar
#

i would replace the starting node on new ds with a brand new weapon poison

#

oh ok

#

that would be my genius innovation

haughty mural
#

that does not really help with target swapping, does it ?

maiden oar
#

and the last node would replace shiv

#

itd be kinda like hellcaller but for prio dmg

haughty mural

#

very good idea please blizard

short radish
lilac stag

he did. Rest is RH history.

short radish
#

Lmao what the fuck

haughty mural
lilac stag
#

@short radish you missed a lot after your Canadians warm in paper Australian houses

soft summit
#

Just want to confirm, blizzard did away with trickster using single target for aoe correct? It’s now 1 target = evis, 2 target = black powder except shuriken storm is 2 targets outside of shadow dance and 3 targets while in shadow dance

lilac stag
#

also

short radish
#

Ty

lilac stag
#

maybe better when you’re half asleep tbh

#

@plush roost when you tested keys as assa was there anything you wanted tracked outside of the normal cdm stuff?

plush roost
#

Everything else shows on cdm like dot timers

#

But no its pretty straightforward, apply bleeds, mut envenom, apply bleeds

lilac stag
#

hmm let me see if I can get the stacks going

#

I think sub ui finally done

#

until blizzard fucks something up

plush roost

You just know next tuesday everything randomly breaks

hello fellow rogues, every expansion I try to learn sub and give up because it's too hard, im a life long sin player, fairly handsome with around 5-6 IQ, do i have what it takes to master sub rogue this year or is it still hard?, i am fairly decent with assassin otherwise and usually parse at around 90+, thanks in advance

balmy pollen
#

Yeah you can learn it now, probably one of the most easy spec in the game

surreal glacier
#

that's crazy

#

im actually gonna try it tonight i dont have high hopes

maiden oar
#

if ur not on the beta u can probably figure it out in like 2 minutes

#

its very reliant on the apex talent which we dont have

#

w the apex its still not that hard though hehe

surreal glacier
#

ohhh okay

#

its joever

#

i already see myself rolling assassin another expansion

maiden oar
#

nah i think u can play both np

surreal glacier
#

it doesn't look too bad on wowhead i suppose

maiden oar
lilac stag
#

everything is just flat out less complex

vale pine
#

so any spec becomes approachable

void hound
surreal glacier
#

Ew don't say that

#

i hate ret

void hound
#

well maybe dont bother with sub then xd

#

there really is no point in playing this spec now unless for tuning reasons im gonna be honest

haughty mural
#

@lilac stag i may be free

surreal glacier

also daggers are cool

haughty mural

i suggest you try it out

I will

empty plume
#

midnight sub rogue is a pathetic 2-button spec, simplest mdps in the game

#

play the other specs, hope sub is not top rogue spec tuning-wise

empty plume
#

harsh truth, I love subtlety vibe but it is gimped

tulip silo
#

The hardest part of playing sub is keeping awake

haughty mural
#

you guys dont need to play it - all G

tulip silo
#

I mean, you don't need to be defensive about it, its a 2 button rotation, I don't think any spec should play like thi9s

empty plume
#

I will unfortunately play it if it is the best rogue spec

plush roost
swift tinsel
tulip silo
swift tinsel
#

after playing all of them, yeah

tulip silo
#

Okay then, if its your opinion

haughty mural
#

which spec is hyper complex in your opinion ?

swift tinsel
#

I mean most specs have almost the same number of rotational buttons

upbeat garden
#

nah ,warlock is more fun imho

astral axle
#

I was skeptical about the sub changes. Played it on beta the past few weeks and it really is basically the same. Just no more nuclear launch sequence for cd windows

upbeat garden
#

arcane has that dopamine idk ,rogue has no feeling

maiden oar
#

i think totemic enhance / inertia havoc / conduit ww are all fun

plush roost
#

Mfw my spec has 6-8 locked in globals every 20 seconds that if missed means -200k damage

slate marlin
#

tww sub difficulty was to make the correct judgment of when to send dances

maiden oar
#

not everything got sub pruned

slate marlin
#

it was still shs evis

empty plume
#

the entire rotation outside of that launch sequence opener was backstab-finisher, and now that is just also the opener

graceful osprey

I’ll tell you what sub does have…purple

Ok ,whats the problem with coup ?

u dont use it when u have it?

On a dummy you can just send it

But if you are on a boss with add spawns that you need to kill fast (which is the niche that sub fills really)

surreal glacier
#

i am a RWL raider

Then having sectech+coup is massive burst that you lose out on if you dont have coup up for it

someone said prio, everyone drink

You’d want to send coup before Sec tech if they’re both up for dance right?

#

So you’re not wasting an unseen proc

hazy breach
#

Doesnt really matter

lilac stag
#

it’s quite fine imo if we’re monster aoe every 25 seconds

swift tinsel
#

I'm busy counting unique button presses on opener across specs but I'll take one after

narrow shadow
#

I would send Sectech first

swift tinsel

(sub is right in the middle)

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

100%

lilac stag
#

and that’s ok

swift tinsel
#

like that argument makes zero sense if you look at the actual data

lilac stag
#

the argument is just angst at everything gettin easier more than anything else I think

swift tinsel
#

paradigm shifts do be making people ornery

lilac stag
#

I just hit a point where’s there so much other shit we’re dealing with on this side of the pond that I’m happy to just vibe in purple dances

#

hahaha first time activating assa with arc

swift tinsel
#

average opener unique presses is 6

#

if anyone was curious lol

haughty mural
hazy breach
#

Its actually so annoying that sub has so few things to track

#

Because the UI gets scuffed when swapping to assa

swift tinsel
#

max is 8, min 4 (technically 3 for fdk bc you macro pillar+DBM)

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

otherwise it would literally just be blades dance and sectech

hazy breach
#

I mean obviously theres ways to fix it

#

But like out of the box its just ass

swift tinsel
#

and can't really make them stretch to 200px without looking doofy as fuck

#

or match energy/cp to essential width and suddenly you have a 108px energy bar

graceful rock
#

Yeah like I could put cloak and step on my essential cooldowns for sub but then it’s not their for assa/law

#

Surely they’re adding trinkets/racials garf_sit

swift tinsel
#

I have trinkets from Arc Auras in my essential

lilac stag
#

my only gripe is right now with the extra trinket it's 6 icons. if go down to 5 I have to move the coup tracker, since I've yet to find a way to attach it to a specific CD spell

graceful rock
#

Yeah I have trinkets and pots from BCDM but I still thinks it’s blasphemy that it’s not something you can do baseline

swift tinsel
#

but ye its annoying bc outlaw and sin have enough actual justifiable cds to track

lilac stag
#

i have coup, sectec, dance, blades and vanish as my cds

swift tinsel
#

I have coup above my cp/sht bars

mighty citrus
#

is there actually a way to track trinkets with the ingame cdm?

lilac stag
#

rtb will replace sht bar

swift tinsel
#

I have opportunity replacing sht for me

#

blue at 3, red at 6

#

and the length is intuitive for 3 stack, if it extends past my current cp then its good to use

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

niceu

#

I think mine is finally in a spot I'm 95% okay with

#

its about as close as I can get to my old setup

lilac stag
#

sht is 5 bars behind the sblades bar

swift tinsel
#

yea I made a standalone bar for it above my cp that counts to 5

lilac stag
#

since i dont see a reason to see it duing blades

swift tinsel
#

and shows the total stack number jic

lilac stag
#

ye

swift tinsel
#

I just have blades being tracked via cooldown swipe on the essential cd but I think I'm gonna add it to my buff bar bc I'll want to know duration with 4pc

#

I'll throw a screenshot in after work, iirc I have a little bit of tidying up to do

#

I'm on the fence if i want to keep a 1px space between icons or have them snug

lilac stag
#

well just fgireud out you can load other spec group profile to make it easier

opal basalt
swift tinsel
#

I like the look of both

opal basalt
#

just works?

swift tinsel
# opal basalt wdym? i'm a little confused here

I like having an energy bar that's ~200-225 pixels wide depending on how many cds I have to track, and since sub doesn't really have anything to track dps cd-wise besides dance sectech and blades it would look really funny if the energy bar was scaled with just 3 icons

opal basalt
#

ah okay i thought you meant like dynamically adjusting to shorter or longer things

#

having backstab on that bar is kinda cringe too because it doesn't even swap to strike when i enter stealth/dance

swift tinsel
#

yeah, I did, but those things would be just 3 icons so in order to make the energy/cp bars not teeny tiny I'd have to stretch those 3 icon widths to make the energy bar as long as I'd like it to be

opal basalt
#

yeah makes sense

tracking sinister strike

alpine wraith
#

rip bp

surreal glacier
#

rip also that stupid fucking echo rampart button thing

#

that gives those stupid combo points

#

it will be missed

surreal glacier
#

im gonna cry theres holes in my keybinds

#

this is the happiest subrogue day of my life

lyric ridge
warm marlin
#

dont think anything is public yet

sly shore
#

2 will forever be empty

warm marlin
#

it looks like tww3 to me, st number seems a bit doomer but you still have all your aoe burst and whatnot

#

itll be fine

surreal glacier
#

based

#

so as far as my brain can understand if i dont have dance

#

i dont click secret tehnique even if its off cd?

#

i just wait for dance

alpine wraith
#

yea you will have sec tech off cd some seconds but dance not ready

#

so you wait

surreal glacier
#

tyvm

alpine wraith
#

same thing will hapen to blades sometimes

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

where you dont have enough to get 2 dances in blads

hazy breach
#

But yeah obv less now

alpine wraith
#

so you also wait a bit

#

now you track flawless and watch it refresh when it is at 0.3 of falling of a 5 stacker

#

to get hyped

#

LETS GOOO

#

but you have 0 control over it

hazy breach
#

But yeah short frequent burst aoe is gonna be subs wheelhouse

surreal glacier
#

so if im in ST build for deathstalker, at what mob count would i click black powder

warm marlin
#

yes yes

surreal glacier
#

xd

surreal glacier
#

oh damn okay didnt expect that

hazy breach
#

It doesnt change

#

Even if your trickster

opal basalt
surreal glacier
#

i was looking at faq but ig i missed it somehow

#

ty though

alpine wraith
#

only sec tech

astral axle
#

the only thing that gives me agita is I played fury warrior in tww s1. Fury was very good at the niche of murdering adds with burst CDs. And that didn't end well for fury that season. monkaS

#

So if sub is really good at this niche... eep

hazy breach
astral axle
#

Yeah that's fair

alpine wraith
#

well sub will have a big snapper but not like fury

#

that one was silly

opal basalt
surreal glacier
#

i remember sub rogue having like a really long aa period where you do nothing

#

is that still a thing

alpine wraith
#

dance uptime is very high so not really

surreal glacier
#

ye i figured ty

alpine wraith
#

like every 20 secs you have 7-8 secs of dance

#

sometimes it is funny because if you have a cool coup and some sht you just chill at full cp for a like 4 secs

surreal glacier
#

also i dont see it anywhere does pooling not exist?

alpine wraith
#

does not seem much but when you are out of dance 10 secs it is 40% of that time?

#

you dont need to pool because when you enter dance you get infinity cps and do finishers so much that you get lots of energy

warm marlin
# astral axle So if sub is really good at this niche... eep

as i understand it, fury's burst was mostly pressing odyns or whatever it was called at the time so it didn't require ramp or setup just make add explode. sub's burst for tww was much more ramp heavy so it kept it safe from heroic. obviously now it requires less setup, but i think that requiring coup prepped to really have insane 3gcd burst will hopefully keep it from getting nerfed

alpine wraith
#

fury had a triforce of cds

#

that all did big dmg

#

odyn+BS and another i forget

#

oh roar

surreal glacier
#

ngl sub seems pretty cool

#

looking forward learning it

alpine wraith
#

like any of those 3 already did dmg but 3 at the same time just vaporized any adds

warm marlin
#

also it might get buffed for st purposes

#

hopefully

alpine wraith
#

my dream is arms get a super buff

#

i hate fury

#

autoattack ass cbt

warm marlin
#

now that nimble got changed eviscerate is a way safer tuning knob for st

alpine wraith
#

although they have hated arms execute more and more since BfA ToM

warm marlin
#

obviously coup still benefits but

surreal glacier
#

struggling to memorise the opener rn

alpine wraith
#

hard eh

surreal glacier
#

yeh

hazy breach
#

because of the aforementioned aoe burst

alpine wraith
#

yea sub is kinda mid but that is fine

#

as it has strenghts that are not easy to get elsewhere

#

if they nerf surv more

warm marlin
alpine wraith
#

rn they outsnipe us

#

but not by a lot

#

thankfully hunters are allergic to surv

alpine wraith
#

the shadowcraft+apex changes

#

are huge

#

for sub

#

cp galore

hazy breach
#

I havent seen a recent outlaw one, but highest assa whispyr linked was like 88k

#

Subs is 94k

frigid prawn
#

/cast Coup de Grace
/cast Black Powder

How does that work?

full bobcat
#

if you have cdg, cast it, otherwise bp

warm marlin
#

obviously not compared to the outliers

#

also 20k below guardian omegalul but pretty good actually

warm marlin
#

my old profile must just be bricked

hazy breach
warm marlin
#

its still at 77k

alpine wraith
#

yea shadowcraft+apex changes and other fixes did big gains

shy ermine
#

We got bug fixes??

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

quite a few last weeks

#

wait did they krangle powder again

#

XD

shy ermine
#

Does our apex talent work with sec tec clones yet

hazy breach
#

I thought i was schizomaxxing and it wasnt ever fixed, but charrend found a log from the 17th where it was fixed

warm marlin
#

yeah i mean

hazy breach
warm marlin
#

doomed to happen with them just randomly pushing beta fixes to prepatch

alpine wraith
#

so they have versioning issues again

#

maybe they went back to an old one to push to release

#

lets pray

hazy breach
wicked joltBOT
warm marlin
#

im expecting clones to magically become thanos when game actually launches

#

100%

#

they will get the 5x bug back

alpine wraith
#

the random WM thanos

hazy breach
#

Idk the bug hasnt been fixed

#

Its still live

alpine wraith
#

just make it do 10x

#

randomly

hazy breach
#

Just not on the beta

warm marlin
#

ye it will survive the transition

alpine wraith
#

the goremaw WM ghost comes back

warm marlin
#

aa2 sht stacks will get doubled but wont work with sectec

full bobcat
#

cdg with ancient arts and flurry thing wasn't fixed last patch?

hazy breach
#

Until late last night

alpine wraith
#

rn you do get 4 with sec tech on dance

alpine wraith
#

or did they krangle that one too

hazy breach
#

And obviously i couldnt test how the apex works on live

alpine wraith
#

on beta

#

we will be able to test at 3 am on the 27th

#

just to get there and it does not work

#

i will inform you people

full bobcat
hazy breach
#

What

#

It doesnt really impact the rotation at all

#

Its just more damage

full bobcat
#

that's what I meant sorry

#

language barrier

surreal glacier
#

i have figured sub rogue my brain is massive right now

#

its like enormous

#

im feeling pretty happy that i can finally play some sub since I've wanted to play it for so long

#

but i was permastuck on assa

opal basalt
swift tinsel
#

classic simming highest but never seeing play

torn tide
warm marlin
#

gonna be interesting seeing the tuning after heroic week when demo goes live simming 150k

#

would not like to be those fellows right now

swift tinsel
#

they get a bit of burst too since it looks to play the 20% AR damage buff talent iirc

#

ye demo's gonna get the over-nerf and be a hollow shell come heroic week tuning

alpine wraith
swift tinsel
#

can't blame PI this time

opal basalt
#

am i weird for wanting a destro season for warlocks

swift tinsel
#

nah green fire spec looks cooler

#

as fun as it is to command a demon army

warm marlin
#

very interesting variance bar on those guys

#

im sure theyre gonna have fun

swift tinsel
#

can barely see but oof

warm marlin
#

ye quality is shit

#

blame my guildie

hazy breach
warm marlin
#

me neither

opal basalt
#

can bet your mortgage that devourer is just simply gonna be top 3 for season 1

#

and nerfs after

astral axle
#

Beare st dam garf_sit

hazy breach
#

Dont get me wrong, demo is probably the best, or among the best, specs anyway

warm marlin
#

warlock doesnt have any tc support really right

#

they're just toughing it out perma

swift tinsel
#

theirs always seem to be quite suspect

hazy breach
#

Kinda yeah

swift tinsel
#

so I could see it

warm marlin
#

demo lock, dev, guardian have 37 nuclear bombs dropped on them after heroic week, exactly 7 days later azor will discover a new hunter build

plush roost
grand wyvern
#

they wont do massive changes in heroic week, just some adjustment, warlock will stay top

swift tinsel
#

nah warlock will get nuked from orbit

#

goldeneye lasered

grand wyvern
#

and still be on top kek

warm marlin
#

yes those guys will get orbital railgunned

swift tinsel
#

we'll find ourselves on top of the pile

#

trust

astral axle
#

ot scuttlebutt but was that whole azor charging people for access to apl fr

warm marlin
#

destro will rise from the ashes to be best warlock spec

astral axle
#

or is that just bs rumor

plush roost
#

MonkaS

swift tinsel
#

I should also probably look into the fights to get an idea of what might be good where

warm marlin
#

nah with the tuning announced bro ICANT i would be rerolling already if i was a demo enjoyer

grand wyvern
#

don't get fooled by warlocks master sandbagging skills

swift tinsel
#

have seen exactly zero raid footage lol

warm marlin
#

unbelievably cooked

plush roost
#

Destro and aff are sleeper

#

They just arent turbo broken op

warm marlin
#

ye plus it being spread cleave tier

plush roost
#

Cant wait just like mages bro

swift tinsel
#

I don't have the attention span for spread cleave lol

opal basalt
#

it looked really fun on the duo boss in undermine

hazy breach
alpine wraith
#

think they need to drop 1 or 2 more boulders o arcane

#

i tried it

#

it is not fair

hazy breach
#

Or is it just ptr testing not grouping it up correctly

warm marlin
#

i didn't play thats just what people said to me

swift tinsel
#

arcane with the orb build is a bit silly

warm marlin
#

could be bad grouping

#

these were ranged players though

#

seems unlike them to overrepresent their strength

swift tinsel
#

they need to try and maintain their babygirl status

hollow spear
#

Sub will be the top melee spec for sure

warm marlin
#

im gonna miss rupture for pseudo spread cleave too Cryge

swift tinsel
#

like Guy says sub will probs be sleeper op again

warm marlin
#

it was cool to sprint and step around applying it to far guys

swift tinsel
#

at least for prog

warm marlin
swift tinsel
#

the fuck

#

!oh

wicked joltBOT
#

Shadow Techniques is not normalized and this makes a slow weapon (axe/sword/mace/fist) in offhand significantly weaker and almost never worth equiping.

opal basalt
#

i'll craft sword too

swift tinsel
#

does he not know

opal basalt
#

and regret it

grand wyvern
#

does he know you can mog it now?

hazy breach
#

Dagger with Darkmoon: Hunt seems to be the play

warm marlin
hollow spear
#

He just said that to be contrarian

#

100%

swift tinsel
#

saying outlaw will be prog spec

#

something is up

#

wellness check time

opal basalt
#

i also promised myself i'll just stick to outlaw for this tier

#

watch me crawl back when i have my 2nd craft

swift tinsel
#

I might play outlaw tonight

#

first raid in months lol

hollow spear
#

You won't catch me crafting a sword

opal basalt
#

do not play law in prepatch

grand wyvern
#

it's weird to me that people call it law, it's literally not that

warm marlin
surreal glacier
#

can I learn anywhere about the rotation stuff once i get my apex talents i don't really understand this very much

hazy breach
#

If you just play with it youll understand it really quickly

opal basalt
#

wait a little more until wowhead updates to midnight guide

warm marlin
hazy breach
#

The tooltips sound confusing but its insanely straightforward in practice

surreal glacier
hollow spear
#

You say that now Eleem

hollow spear
#

Then you come out of the bushes with some cursed shit before raid hits

swift tinsel
#

properly prepped on-demand burst cleave

hollow spear
#

Arguably our damage profile might be even better than last expansion

swift tinsel
#

can carry certain aspects of fights

#

now that more damage is loaded into dance yeah

plush roost
swift tinsel
#

and less into blades window

warm marlin
hollow spear
#

Rly?

#

How so?

warm marlin
#

even if sectec had charges id say worse

#

well sometimes you want really big mega burst

#

like an infrequent damage amp

hollow spear
#

I think our profile last season was carried by dmg amps

#

In raid

swift tinsel
#

amps and prism

warm marlin
#

or some very important adds you want to blow up insta

plush roost
#

Youd bring sub to nexus without dragon amp

lilac stag
#

I think we’re in a better spot

plush roost
#

And dimmy without amp

#

And soup hunters

lilac stag
#

especially without Amps

warm marlin
#

your dances are good but they're a lot worse than flag/blades/prism goes and even with blades you're doing a lot less relative in those windows

plush roost
#

Araz ye its for amps

warm marlin
#

not to mention delaying your dances feels real bad cuz no sectec charges (please fix)

lilac stag
#

No one has prism so drop that from the comparison

surreal glacier
#

ngl I feel like i have dance up all the time

#

pretty cool i guess

hollow spear
#

Sectec charges would be real good

#

Maybe too good for their taste

warm marlin
#

I also think you just have too many dances for most raid fights

plush roost
grand wyvern
warm marlin
#

rather have less frequent stronger dances

swift tinsel
plush roost
#

Rogue 1 at 200 haste vs rogue 2 at 700

swift tinsel
#

literal wild west timers for a bit

plush roost
#

A world where 700 haste holds sec tec and the 200 one aligns...

hollow spear
#

Aren't our dances already much stronger than last season

lilac stag
hollow spear
#

If you made them less frequent they'd be insane

plush roost
surreal glacier
#

ok im fresh subrogue and all but hear me out, why make dance a button when its permanently up, just make it a permanent passive instead and there you go

hollow spear
#

Get out

swift tinsel
#

then you don't have any burst

warm marlin
swift tinsel
#

which sucks

warm marlin
#

most high key routes are designed around them

#

obviously not having cdr is sick for downtime

lilac stag
#

for your avg LFG player doing what 10-16 it’s a better profile

warm marlin
#

yes i agree

surreal glacier
#

ye just max it out, fuck downtime

lilac stag
#

your 1% Will make the CDs work

surreal glacier
#

we blast it top dps

swift tinsel
surreal glacier
#

top of the world

lilac stag
#

*looks at @plush roost

hollow spear
#

Charrend will betray us and meta slave

swift tinsel
#

wound poison hidden tech?

#

(I know nothing about that fight)

graceful osprey
#

Perma stealth, perma shadow blades, perma find weakness, all poisons perma applied, perma cloak and perma evasion, perma everything, ship it blizz

plush roost
#

The logic is simple scath, the pack is >5m i pressa de blades,

surreal glacier
#

fuck yeah

hollow spear
#

Perma dead

surreal glacier
#

can we also combine black powder with secret technique so i can only click 2 buttons

plush roost
warm marlin
#

overall, you're better and stronger at covering frequent add sets that need to die quickly.
you lose more damage by holding cds than before
you're worse at damage amps where you were previously very motivated to sync cds
you're worse at exploding big add sets that are infrequent

hollow spear
#

How many damage amps are there?

plush roost
#

Fallen king has a 1:30 amp

lilac stag
hollow spear
plush roost
#

That fight is going to get sub nerfed btw

warm marlin
#

you sync big cds with big adds

#

and you only had the guys on platforms every like 50s or something

hollow spear
#

The padder strat?

swift tinsel
#

are we effectively saccing a dance to line up for 1:30

warm marlin
#

yes the pad strat garf

swift tinsel
#

hell yeah

warm marlin
#

okay different example, oab

hollow spear
#

I never played a different strat

warm marlin
#

you have less damage for the bomb guys at 90s

#

you have more reel assistant damage

#

new sub probably better at that fight

plush roost
#

Yeee

#

New sub would be turbo juice on oab

hollow spear
#

Our warrior flamed my in whispers for ruining his gally parse

#

Big win

warm marlin
#

araz worse, you could already cover all the add sets with dance and sync your 90s with them

#

but now you have less burst for amp

lilac stag
hollow spear
#

Araz amp was big bongo

#

Not sure we'll get that level again

warm marlin
#

SH worse i would say, they didn't group frequently enough where you would get good value from 20s dance

plush roost
#

I went for a boss damage parse on araz and was like 200m higher than the next person lmfao

#

Im gonna miss prism

hollow spear
#

Prism kinda goated

plush roost
#

Playing antenna on that fight and hearing orb. Orb. Orb just as the amp starys

hollow spear
#

Imagine if we had prism and an actual 1 second gcd on double coup

plush roost
#

🥜

astral axle
#

goremaw's bite rework into prism-like WAYTOOGLORP

vale pine
plush roost
#

I still think goremaws should give us 3 guaranteed apex procs

#

Would be sick flavor

surreal glacier
#

hello fuu i know you from wowhead, pretty cool meeting a celebrity like this

warm marlin
#

there is a 2s period in the amp im doing more damage than the entire rest of my raid combined (ok not actually but like 50% of the rest of the raid)

hollow spear
#

Kinda brazy that you checked for that

lilac stag
grand wyvern
#

yump 3 times

hollow spear
#

I hated antenna

surreal glacier
#

bro I've been a sin rogue for like 40 years

lilac stag
#

clearly not

surreal glacier
#

i don't think I've ever met a sub rogue

#

until now

lilac stag
#

You’d call it assa if you were that old

surreal glacier
#

i saw the cool kids do it in the assa channel

grand wyvern
#

or ass?

surreal glacier
#

no ass

#

i did call it ass when aug came out

#

the dark times were real

#

may another aug never come again

plush roost
surreal glacier
#

tbh sin did pretty good damage in df when aug came out if you had PI, AUG buffs, and windfury

#

so i take it back nvm

astral axle
plush roost
#

8^)

hollow spear
#

It doesn't matter how well sub and sin performed in the past

#

Next season will be outlaw season

warm marlin
surreal glacier
#

ass has been decent recently so i decided to settle on something more ass which is sub rogue

grand wyvern
hollow spear
#

Excuse me

#

That bait screams quality

plush roost
#

Im not at pc too annoying to navigate mobile logs and specific times

hollow spear
#

Ryldd, you gonna stream prog

warm marlin
plush roost
#

Beautiful

grand wyvern
surreal glacier
#

being in a community like this which is used to being dogshit its really heartwarming, I feel very wholesome and at home garf_sit

warm marlin
#

if you just zoom in far enough dps number get really big wow (rip prism)

hollow spear
#

Who's babe? Araz?

warm marlin
#

through the power of innovation we can use warcraftrecorder and obs at the same time

#

insane

hollow spear
#

Holy

swift tinsel
#

that's a good reminder to get recording stuff set up again

#

wcrecorder/obs

#

etc

warm marlin
#

it was indeed a gamehook issue

hollow spear
#

I'll have to try warcraftrecorder next season

#

Used nvidia until now
