to make coup not just light up when ready

vale pine
#

you could ask mapko as he has more experience with the addon api

#

he might know whats possible or not via addons

#

blizz changes the functionality frequently and enables small things

exotic steeple
#

cant u macro until u get AA proc and then just evis instead and then continue until next AA with macro

shrewd lantern
#

I also miss how my energybar with bettercdm

#

doesnt physically get smaller with less energy

#

i could have sworn the stock ui playerframe ui even does this

lilac stag
#

the player frame is fixed width in default ui

frail bone
# exotic steeple cant u macro until u get AA proc and then just evis instead and then continue un...

I was doing this during my m0 runs and I was finding with the macro I was still holding onto the buff for some reason. even on the next AA It would still hold. Im not sure of that is because the delay of coup and server lag response.

im no pro at this stuff, but it isnt working completely correctly. I found I was using the macro and just using in evis once it came up anyways so just debating the relevance of it at this point.

exotic steeple
#

ah so you did so already

#

then you found a workaround

astral axle
#

Messerknecht outlaw main now? HOLY Congrats

chrome palm
#

for m0 week

#

then back to prison

#

not really just more or less a hang up in the macro. I get it's nice to have it on one key. But it isnt reliable enough when you exactly want to have coup over bp. If your just hammer the macro and not worried about the loss of the coup in a AA window then it doesnt matter. it's likely trivial at best in a pull at lower end keys.

shrewd lantern
#

I'd experiment but then i'd have to set up ui

#

I mean nothing is stopping someone from just not macroing them

#

you know a coup is coming shortly after sectech due to disorienting

hazy breach
#

You can track the stacks, called escalating blades

exotic steeple
#

more dps from macro because less brain ms on cdg proc

shrewd lantern
#

Yeah like coup is VERY predictable

#

you see it coming

#

ig if you proc the double hit after first one sometimes lucky

#

and get another in your cds

hazy breach
#

But yeah, while there really ain't any reason in simc/dummy scenarios to not macro. In practice there could be scenarios where you would rather hold onto the coup (like 2 mobs at 5% hp before a big pull)

shrewd lantern
#

our new trickster talent is basically a nerfed 2p aint it

#

well ig unseen can trigger once per 15 instead of 20

frail bone
#

I understand the tracking aspect. It has nothing to do with the part, more so the deployment of the macro. it simply doesnt work as written like you think it would. might be worth while to note so don't keep seeing the question arise.

#

Ive played around it already so no biggie just seen a couple people talking about it already and just sharing what I went through with it. For a while I thought I was messing things up (like miss spelt the macro or something rotationally).

#

Literally read coup

hazy breach
#

When you have 4 stacks

#

Next evis goes boom

static fjord
#

you cant track first dance in cdm?

hazy breach
#

You cannot idd

static fjord
#

thats annoying

hazy breach
#

Yep

static fjord
#

cdm would be so epic if it didnt limit us on what to track

bleak night
#

Its ok blizzard knows best

hazy breach
#

Yeah like weakauras used to do garf_sit

You don't want to track first dance you just think you do

wtf i would never.

#

also what was the misinformation

idle aurora
#

I find that if I don’t have to macro Bp coup together if I never use black powder super big 🧠

i love misinformation

bleak night

Ok sweet lol

hazy breach
#

Dw about it

#

Best by far is haste on-use and the 1 boss raid trinket anyway

patent lichen
#

That's what I thought and makes the most sense

I love not worrying about things

Maybe he meant nightmare pray?

I mean I think you can get nightmare prey this week. Not sure if it would be worth the grind, I don't think it drops anything different than hard prey.

maybe the real nightmare is the discord chatters we met along the way

stuck arrow
#

Ah. Well. Makes sense.

No idea why someone would bother doing 30 preys. 4 is bad enough. And like 8 caps your crests.

#

Realistically even if you could - would probably be reduced ilvl drops regardless.

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 WoWhead or IV Icy Veins.

Apex talent optimization (Trickster):

  • Is shadow dance up? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
  • Do you have 5 or more stacks of shadow techniques? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
  • Is ancient arts up? - :x: No
    Use Shadowstrike (even if on full cp).
    Note: Only up to 3 targets.

!premed

wicked joltBOT
#

There is a bug that makes it so while Premeditation is active you cannot get a refund nor spawn the clone from Ancient Arts. This is not something you need to play around, as using Ancient Arts of Secret Technique is about the same value as using it on a regular Eviscerate.

stoic sphinx
#

might be missing something, but looks like we dont actually care about silent storm in pure ST right?

#

im guessing its only in the raid build for adds and such?

hazy breach
#

Realistically it doesnt matter anywhere

#

Its such a miniscule amount of extra damage

#

Since storm already has like 75% crit chance, and doesnt do much damage anyway

#

But yeah its not relevant at all on ST

stoic sphinx
#

wondering in that case if we just take this then

hazy breach
#

You definitely can

#

Even in m+

#

Its still within margin to drop silent storm on huge aoe sims

stoic sphinx
#

gotcha, ty!

hazy breach
#

For trickster* i should clarify, deathstalkers storm does a bit more damage, but you deathstalker itself is not very good

stoic sphinx
#

yeye that makes sense

#

its partially triggering me i should honestly stop tracking it

hazy breach
#

Yep no reason to track.

#

If you want to storm, you'd do it anyway

stoic sphinx
#

right right

hazy breach

Regardless of whether or not silent is up

Ttk really ruined that spec

plush roost

Yuhp

And honestly ER was fun on assa

plush roost
#

Clipping envenoms being optimal has a certain enjoyment to it idk

maiden oar
#

100%

chrome palm
#

Or even 200% garf_sit

plush roost
#

If it was optimal for ttk to be about pooling to chain over and over

#

It coulda been good

#

But it just ended up being ungabunga press mut envenom no energy

chrome palm
#

It’s still kinda that right

plush roost
#

Yea midnight is

#

Should be optimal to clip but ig not

#

Design wise

chrome palm
#

I’m sure they’ll iterate on it

maiden oar
#

make poison bomb only happen when u clip and tune the dmg accordingly? so cool?

plush roost
#

Just increase envenom cost and damage, increase base poison damage

chrome palm
#

Pb at 5 implacable ..

maiden oar
#

visual feedback for doing it right?

plush roost
#

Make maintaining envenom something u play for

#

Not a given

Rn its like 95% uptime lmfao

and they have Unseen Blade

but cats that bleed

plush roost

Ye the apex right?

That seemed cool

astral axle
swift tinsel

its frustrating bc their cat clones are more visible than ours

but like you can see the full cat model

maiden oar

maybe i level meowch

they always spawn across the area tho lol

#

i love that guy

#

shame ferals like alwways bad or something

like they look like they're clawing from the shadows and then disappearing back into them

#

and the ancient arts clones are trying to mimic it but aren't quite there

#

physically lol

astral axle
#

why are they simming so well in st is it bait?

#

or is it that like they either do st or aoe and no inbetween

swift tinsel

feral was great st in MFO

#

they're one of the tradeoff specs

astral axle

ahhh yeh

#

why you're putting pasta sauce on your hotdogs

oh

i understand now

ketchup is shit

plush roost
#

Oh u mean actual tomato sauce alright

short radish

no

#

well

#

i dont mean pasta sauce

swift tinsel
#

ketchup is indeed shit though

#

literal just sugar squeeze bottle

short radish
#

yah

plush roost
#

Waiting for you to say "catsup on the other hand..."

short radish
#

but yeah TIL that tomato sauce means pasta sauce in europe

swift tinsel
#

catsup sounds like old-people sauce that's just watery worse ketchup

plush roost
#

In canada too

swift tinsel
#

and America

short radish
#

@teal coral another thing to add to your "weird shit australia does" list

plush roost
#

We refer to all thickened tomato based sauces as kethup, and tomato sauce for pasta dishes and such

#

Weirdge

swift tinsel
#

ours is just the bottled burger sauce

#

we call the tomato sauce used for pasta, pasta sauce

swift tinsel

tomato sauce is pretty much exclusively the italian variety

Whispyr is Australian /

swift tinsel
#

build testing going well

#

for some reason his buff bar was pulling the unholy and frost dk spec aura spellID's instead of actual ability buff id's

#

but now that things are fixed its so nice

#

legit cannot wait to drop all my extra addons

short radish
#

i heard a bit about vibe coding from it

zenith egret
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
swift tinsel
#

Idk how much if any is vibe coded but it’s been very heavily iterated on and tons of fixes per day

#

As features get rolled out it’s becoming one cohesive suite

#

Kiss/curse bc you get everything in one place and don’t have to jump from addon to addon but if it breaks then everything is bricked til it’s fixed

short radish
#

mmhm

#

tbh thats kinda why i avoided elvui

swift tinsel
#

Yeah, I’m slowly adopting it and dropping an addon at a time as I get their replacements set up in EUI but keeping their folders in case I need to go back to them

#

But not having to use arc anymore is nice

short radish
#

when i try use it

#

icons just jumping around

#

or that i cant have a default "genral" set up

#

and have to recreate it every time i play a new class

swift tinsel
#

Yeah that’s one of the big reasons I jumped to EUI as soon as I heard about it

swift tinsel
short radish
#

tbh even new spec

swift tinsel
#

Even if you imported a profile from a different spec you had to redo tonnnns

short radish
#

yah

#

it's really fucky for when i was playing druid

swift tinsel
#

So it felt very What’s The Point

short radish
#

having the energy/rage bar differ

#

end of the day though it's not arcui devs fault

#

its blizzards fault

swift tinsel
#

Yeah it’s annoying

chrome palm
#

i just wish there was a cdm addon with drop shadows so i can run default ui scale and not have tiny ui elements in order to get pixel perfect

swift tinsel
#

Also very funny seeing ellesmere pump out tons of fixes and improvements all by himself when blizz ui stuff is literal butt soup with a team of devs

short radish
#

based ellesmere

#

okay you've convinced me to try set it up

#

fuck you making me waste 4 hours of my time tonight

#

i hate you

swift tinsel
#

Lmfao

chrome palm
#

its a bit of an eyesore imo

#

can you customize icon glows in his cdm

swift tinsel
#

It’s worth at least looking into if you’re interested

#

Umm I think he’s working on that kind of stuff

#

Mostly just getting everything functional first

short radish
#

if i can make a default general look that i can apply between classes

#

so i dont need to recreate my ui

#

for every single spec

#

thats all i ask

swift tinsel
#

Yeah he just added profiles today

#

It’s all still in beta atm but I think he said he’s shooting for Sunday full release

short radish
#

ahh cool

swift tinsel
#

But the base CDM is problematic so was having issues with it

#

And getting pixel perfect to work

#

But he said his background is really heavy on UX/UI design so it all is very easy to work with

short radish
#

cool

#

hellow, sorry about this dumb question, but what this mean? (Cast Combo Point builder with the following priority)

asking it because the Shadow Techniques passive, during shadowdance have some time i need cast backstab for example?

shrewd lantern
#

You're not backstabbing in dance.

proper eagle
#

Only when stealthed, you are able to SS. So when stealthed-status better SS than backstabbing

lyric iris
#

I understand, I thought that because of the passive we would at some point need to use backstab to avoid overcap. Thanks for the tips.

Hey guys, I understood the conditions to use the trickster optimisation but I don't really understand why. Is it about consuming shadow techniques with a finisher instead of a builder due to

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 WoWhead or IV Icy Veins.

short radish
#

is my understanding

#

someone correct me if im spreading misinformation though

sullen nova

so basically we just shadow dance SS and evis

i mean we open with SS SD then Sectech

I’ve been having this issue for awhile, when i purchase a wow token off the AH it will revert my ui to a older or default ui layout and makes maybe a dozen ui layout copies ( more then possible ) then swaping to or editing one and saving every thing gets jammed into a conner. I have to then /reload and i can then pick my normal ui layout but h...

but yeah ss -> evis (to start slice and dice) -> sdance+blade -> ss -> sectech

Is there a guide on defensives i.e. what attacks feint does and doesn’t cover? Like if im targeted by a boss mechanic w/ rot damage and CoS is on cooldown idk what “defensive” would be used if the mechanic isn’t really “area of effect”

I ran two simcs. One is don't care about AA rule. Another is follow AA rule.(Only in shadow dance). Second one is actually 1.2% better dps but I don't know why. SS->SS->Evis->Evis versus SS->Evis->SS->Evis. Two are both in 4 gcd. What makes diff?

fallow nimbus

vale pine
#

we need to keep an eye on it

#

its still worth it on deathstalker

#

bugfixes and simc implementation updates can shift things

#

but for now, it seems very neutral to do the apex optimization on trickster

tribal blade
vale pine
#

it is 100% worth it on deathstalker

where you basically do so to get apex on DN

olive canyon
#

Is outlaw really that much better....seems like a yikes. I have to find a damn one hander

vale pine
#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
olive canyon
#

Thats what im looking at

vale pine
#

"that much better"

#

we are at ~97k dps

#

while outlaw is on 104k

fallow nimbus
#

Flat profile will never be better

vale pine
#

so roughly 7%

shrewd lantern
#

Outlaw has simmed higher every tier

#

Like this isnt news

vale pine
#

but outlaw still has a worse damage profile

olive canyon
#

ok lets remove the "that" but 7% amongst those that value 1.5% increases as large is at the very least significant

#

but fair points

shrewd lantern
#

Its 2026

#

and people still think patchwerk sims mean anything

#

for raid performance

vale pine
#

don't get me wrong

proper eagle
#

Outlaw is better in only hitting dummy

tribal blade
#

we start every single tier where outlaw is simming way ahead

proper eagle
#

In raid or m0 you can not hit mobs always

vale pine
#

but it only matters if the boss is fairly patchwerk-y

#

having adds

#

or burst phases

#

shields

olive canyon
#

Doesnt seem to be any pure patchwork esque fight

#

this tier

vale pine
#

all can easy shift the focus to sub or sin

shrewd lantern

when has there been a patchwerk boss

of any real difficulty

that has mattered

i mean in the mould of a fractillus

shrewd lantern
#

i said hard bosses

olive canyon
#

it happens every tier, you get usually one ST pure burn

shrewd lantern
#

frac is a pulse check

#

at best

olive canyon
#

dude that is a niche requirement

hollow spear
#

Fractillus was such a joke

olive canyon
#

its just a staple of the raid scene to have one pumper ST boss and there really isnt on this tier - that is all im saying

wheat edge
olive canyon
#

they all seem like constant cleave or burst cleave

shrewd lantern
#

yeah every raid needs their loot pinata boss

#

i agree

chrome palm
#

did you test the last boss of voidspire

#

or the last boss of march of qualdanas

#

st could be extremely important there

shrewd lantern

yeah but its not the

Has anyone reached enough haste in pre season currently to be able to send 2 ST during blades?

shrewd lantern

"sit here for 5 mins and smack a boss"

#

type

olive canyon
#

All end game fights have big burns to meet a dps requirement - and what monkey said

#

im simply stating this raid tier seems to be devoid of that type of boss

shrewd lantern
#

Also big burns tend to be only relevant

#

for guilds that kill before a gorillion nerfs

olive canyon
#

are there comparative sims for 2t, 3t or burst cleave events?

hollow spear
#

Don't think so

shrewd lantern
chrome palm
#

you can sim it pretty easily

#

except for burst cleave

shrewd lantern
#

burst cleave devolves into who pads first

#

by 2nd month of a tier

chrome palm
#

i dont think the sim knows to hold secret technique for an add spawn

hollow spear
#

That used to be us

shrewd lantern

yeah

Holding sectec

playing assa on gallywix with a sub rogue and 3 ele shamans in the same raid garf

for gally

well they took spatter out back

wheat edge
shrewd lantern
#

so now sub better at burst aoe me thinks

hollow spear
#

I think that's not far enough

chrome palm
#

sub was always better at burst aoe

hollow spear
#

They took it to a different country to torture it

shrewd lantern
#

nah just get an add spawn in exe

#

during dm kb set

hollow spear
#

What kind of burst aoe does assa even have?

shrewd lantern
#

it was spatter

#

in tww

hollow spear
#

Yeah that I know

#

Played it for a while

shrewd lantern
#

mugzee was fun

#

if i got last jail my parse went down the drain

hollow spear
#

Was kinda big on the King Kong boss in undermine

chrome palm
#

assa seems to be more bursty than sub overall

shrewd lantern
#

or me when the tank doesnt position

#

the boss to spatter both goons

wheat edge
#

problem with add spawns for assa is that you need to ramp

chrome palm
#

yeah the ramp takes a while

shrewd lantern
#

yeah sub rn feels nice when shit dies

#

in your blades

chrome palm
#

in fact it takes about 7 bosses before assa ramps in the new raid

hollow spear

Slow burn

when you get to the bosses that dont put adds far from them

Which is why shadow priest can never be good at single target this tier

Is tset allready possible First Vault ?

brisk raptor

When we shadowblades we send back to back dances per the guide right? So what do you do as secret technique comes off cooldown from the first use? Do you send it with no dance or you let it sit on cooldown for a couple seconds and combine it with 3rd dance?

hello friends i wasnt quite ablte to follow it along but was catching that we are at a poitn where the apex min max is currently not realy worth it or did i missunderstand anything?

short radish
#

whether thats worth it for you is personal

tulip light
#

still 1,5 ok. then i read that wrong - thanks

ornate lake
#

Broskis if you have slower reaction time then just blindly shadowstrike once more if the previous shadowstrike doesn't proc apex talent. It's not ideal ofc but in 9/10 cases you'll proc it.

#

why do we need verteran crests to craft an item? Larias’ guide suggests to hold 80 / 160 for early crafts

meager coyote
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
placid tendon
#

can someone explain this rule?
so if we are at full cps with 5+ shadow techniques stacks, if we dont follow the rule, we would do evis -> shadowstrike -> evis. If we follow it we would do shadowstrike -> evis -> evis. Its seems to be the same damage but the first option saves your shadow techniques stacks.

willow knoll
#

If I craft now with spark, hunt farstriders

#

I can throw it in my offhand eventually anyways and upgrade later so it's pretty fine right?

tulip light
#

@willow knoll exactly. a crafted wep will be bis for the entire season as you will upgrade it later as well

willow knoll

aight aight

I figured, I'm just new and interacting with all these new systems

#

So I needed to alleviate my anxiety on it by hearing someone say it. D

#

😄

tepid trellis
#

id say the only reason to really hold on doing it is if you play in world rank where every little bit of performance matters

#

which isnt true for 99.9% of players

#

so crafting it is perfectly fine

willow knoll

For sure, this season I'm really just focused on getting better

#

But you know, still wanna do what's right

Almost got baited by fishhook

tulip light
#

@tepid trellis mayeb u can help - why do guides recomment to save vet crests for crafting? eg larias "For veteran crests, you’ll want to save at least 160 of them to craft embellishment items before raid." how are they used?

tepid trellis

no clue, ive not looked into it at all

whats a good tip?

tulip light

equip it and become the most intelligent rogue.

reef walrus
#

you'd put the second embellishment on wrists, and you don't really want to spend your high tier crests on crafting wrists early on, so that's why they're recommending vet crests for that

#

it's fine if your wrists are low ilvl for a while, and then you have your good crests to spend on more impactful slots

dry zodiac
#

It’s also because vet crest crafts don’t use a spark, while higher ones do. Just a cheap way to get embellishments in low value slots without spending “important” resources

willow knoll
#

idk how this stuff works, I can just post in trade chat asking for max level craft right and then what?

#

Do I need to meet that person in person?

#

lmao

tulip light
dry zodiac
#

No, you send them a crafting order

reef walrus
willow knoll
#

Oh righttt

dry zodiac
#

Through the NPC

willow knoll
#

I can select them from the dropdown under personal orders

tulip light
#

do the items not using sparks have a different name or something? - nvm i found it. all makes sense now. GG

lilac stag
tulip light
#

i just didnt look at the lower ilvl items w/o spark req like a dumb dumb

lilac stag
#

Or you craft your 259 dagger and use the crest to fill out missing items and add an embellishment.

#

On reset Basically run your 8 m0. Do your weekly quest chests & prey chests. Then craft whatever is still adventurer or low ilvl.
