Melee was no mechanics

supple pawn
#

Its probably the confirmation bias of "argh this fight ranged just gap us so much"

Like it was painful to play Amirdrassil and just watch the boomy and Destro do 300k when the next highest dps does 120k

fleet wharf
#

I was thinking mroe about the ratio

supple pawn
#

Or not 120k

#

It can be very non-engaging at times, then you realize you needed to move 30ft ~2-3 seconds ago and you’re scrambling. Good casting involves a bit of preplanning and micro adjustments.

fleet wharf
#

I guess it's more tuning issue

supple pawn

Something silly

I do want to preface again I'm not upset with casters 😭

fleet wharf
#

I mean yea sub was great on those, but weren't there way more ranged compared to melees on the harder bosses?

supple pawn

I'm just interested in this as a discussion piece/to learn

right, that is the other side of the coin, I'm not saying all of them are anti melee, I just don't think manaforge was melee favored

supple pawn
#

We over performed so we had to be fucking shit next patch

#

S3 was better but still

fleet wharf
#

well to be honest, I feel surv (at least perception wise) has been shit forever and ever

supple pawn
#

I mean we did the top ST in the game! In a raid tier where that didn't mean that much

#

It was good for mugzee I guess

#

Absolutely horrible AOE

#

I hear from a key pusher in there that survival was probably one of the worst specs for keys in S2

fleet wharf
#

is there anyone who got title as a surv player in recent memory?

supple pawn

Raidwise at least

He plays survival

fleet wharf
#

I don't follow hunters that closely so I just legit duno

And I think he’s gotten title on all 3, as well

fleet wharf

#

TWW S3 title metrics

supple pawn
#

Yeah 0% survival sounds about right

#

But yeah like

#

Survival was pretty good in S1 TWW, definitely the best hunter for M+ that season

flint gust
#

Sooo for ass/sub should we be crafting the dagger this week or nah?

supple pawn
#

The notorious SL S4 ofc but S3 DF I think it was pretty good too, just worse than BM by a longshot because BM was stupid AF that tier

fleet wharf
#

if you want to play either spec, yea go craft your dagger

supple pawn
#

SV is looking to be about as good as MM last I checked

#

But, tuning inc so

fleet wharf
#

if you are 100% sure about sub, you can prolly do haste/mastery, I did crit/haste so i can swap if needed/preferred

flint gust
#

Tuning was announced, but sub seems to still be to go to right? No changes to ass or outlaw

hi,

Is this bug bellow is still happening on live ?

supple pawn
tepid trellis
#

you can get title on all specs

#

its not that difficult

fleet wharf
supple pawn
#

So I can get carried to hall of fame I just need to sell out my government to Echo

fleet wharf
#

i mean you dont need echo to carry tou to title lmao

#

like there are excel sheets circulating showing ppl who got carried to title last season and s2

grand wyvern
#

I don't understand why they don't make title a per spec top 0.1%, it would just be healthier

tepid trellis
#

ive gotten title on sub when it was considered "trash"

fleet wharf
supple pawn
#

Whereas for Solo Shuffle and Blitz R1 its spec based

fleet wharf
#

but with the system in place, it' becomes more about "buying" your way in or just ramming your head against the key until you luckily time it

supple pawn
#

Forgot about it lol

fleet wharf
#

like even if you have 3% chance to time a particular key, if it's resilient, you can just keep spamming it until you get that magical run

#

i think that's the biggest gripe title pushers have about the resilient system, which seems pretty fair tbh

You're only EVER using SecTec with SD right?

259 item goes hard

still gazelle
#

In Keys, do you always break stealth with Shadowstrike or Shuriken storm if there's more than two targets?

narrow shadow
#

Glad we're now the laughing stock of the community, at least I can finally wear the Harlequin transmog and make it accurate

#

when yall sim do yall do multiple targets or jus 1

#

which one matter more when deciding upgrades

#

what do you care about? m+ or raid?

bp spam on big pulls was kind of gross

is it worth crafting the 259 wep now or waiting for s1 for better crests?

And then devourer doing double the damage

shrewd lantern
#

that wasnt really the case in beta keys

unless the average dumb m+er who presses evis over bp

because "prio"

hey guys im new here what the rogue buffs lookin like what are we simming now ?

Anyone noticed a weird bug where if you dance into evis with the apex talent it just doesn't trigger ?

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.

K thx

frail kindle
#

good morning friends any fellow doomers

vale pine
#

no dooming

#

single target bufff is good

#

even tho i don't think the aoe nerfs ended up needed

arctic abyss
#

compared to other class aoes ... no its not

vale pine
#

single trget is relevant in raid, so we doing fine

heady garden
#

Kinda sad for the 3 target fight but eh

shrewd lantern
#

the nerf hit bp spam which was

frail kindle
#

i mean thats the main reason why im dooming, i didnt do testing personally so i cant say with certainty but i was under the impresion that there was a LOT of cleave/aoe in this raid tier

shrewd lantern
#

long extended aoe

#

that doesnt happen in raid

heady garden
#

Not as sad as the state of sin so we take those

brazen meadow
#

Is there an updated target count on using black powder?

grand wyvern
#

aren't we worse in 2-3 targets too since we finish with bp?

vale pine
#

i mean, other classes got nerfed too

vale pine
#

we will need to see the actual change

#

the real change many times looks diffrent in implementation

brazen meadow
#

I thought it may get bumped up to 4 or 5 considering it was sizeable nerf

shrewd lantern
#

honestly bigger st buff and not target nimble with a nerf

#

and things would have been ideal

heady garden
#

it's not that bad lol

shrewd lantern
#

though buffing backstab

#

is fucking funny

grand wyvern
#

as long as I don't have to go outlaw in raid it's alright

shrewd lantern
#

20% of 0

#

is still 0

heady garden
#

nimble probably stays similar damage due to buffs to all it's flurried components

#

but it means more ST also

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.

chrome palm
#

So nimble was reduced a good bit

heady garden
#

autos were also buffed 15%, and unseen blade by 20%

south sedge
#

think you would need a buff of 30% to offset the nimble nerf

#

none of the abilities were buffed that much so still a net nerf

chrome palm
heady garden
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
chrome palm
#

Also, even if we look at just auto attacks or just unseen blade, it’s less damage

onyx flame
# vale pine no dooming

I just like how calm you stay all the time while everybody here looses their mind. Sub will be fine

vale pine
#

Secret tech was not nerfed

#

and most of the adds in raid need to be blown up

#

nerfing bp hurts our sustained aoe more

#

which means, subtlety ideally becomes better for raid

#

for mthic+ its rly hard to predict

#

but from history, subtlety was always nerfed it if had competitive aoe

grand wyvern
#

our role is still big padder

olive canyon
vale pine
#

so i assume the dev team is again afraid that the aoe capacity is too good

chrome palm
vale pine
#

its a bit of a complicated topic

chrome palm
#

So I don’t think that sub has much chance in m+

vale pine
#

but ill try to explain it by giving some context

#

back in BfA/legion

#

you had evis rank 2

olive canyon
#

appreciate the attempt

vale pine
#

which was just "evis does more damage"

#

so every time you buffed evis

#

you had no other spells that would be impacted

#

it made it easy for the devs to not make any mistake

arctic abyss
#

me personally i dont care - as long as its competitive with all the other classes and not a big gap between it and others

vale pine
#

now, this changed in shadowlands, where diffrent people started working on the spec

#

so they removed evis rank 2

#

and added find weakness

#

and a new interaction

#

any target affected by find weakness would get extra shadow damage from evis

#

this now adds a dependency

hard trellis
olive canyon
#

would coup be a dependency now as well?

vale pine
#

because now you need find weakness to deal the same damage, which isn't always up but also how the shadow damage is calculated

#

now we have even more stuff like this with clone attacks

#

etc.

#

it just more or less got worse, because more and more spells get triggered/stacked

#

so to come to the point

#

any of this spells is part of the overall damage

heady garden
#

not sure why they dont just convert our fw damage to shadowstrike damage so we dont have this janky seperate damage instances

olive canyon
#

so the issue may be that when they say Evis is buffed by 15%, that doesnt necessarily mean all of it and certainly not anything that has its dmg linked or predicated to it

vale pine
#

and any of it might require manual updates or specific changes to get the 10% buff

#

so a 10% buff to evis

#

might not work on the clone attacks, or might not be included in the sahdow part

#

etc.

south pelican
#

Guys they buffed backstab, we are chillin 😎

tepid trellis
#

stab stab

vale pine
#

so we basically need to see what was changed, to figure out if its actually working as intended

#

or if we need to add a bug to the tracker

#

#

any time bs gets buffed these unshowered gloomblade enjoyers come creeping back in KEKW

Ohh, gotcha

#

How often should we actually try to proc the ancient arts apex talent nowadays? i read the FAQ but it still feels up in the air when it's worth to spend or do an extra generator before?

#

My hope is that they're consistent. If they messed up buffing the shadow part of evis, then hopefully they also messed up nerfing the shadow part of bp.

In that case you spin backwards into a cabbage patch and press yellow

#

How did they even climb up to the window

shrewd lantern
#

thought you meant the trade up crest system

#

idk if that got axed

tribal vortex
#

this also but it doesn't bypass cap

#

while this way you save some crests every week

shrewd lantern
#

true

tribal vortex
#

(most value would be hero for myth in practice)

shrewd lantern
#

that means its basically better to finish a lower track

#

technically

tribal vortex
#

I'd say yes but still if you have hero 1/6 it may not be worth it to take it to 6/6 to save 20 myth

#

but in most cases it seems to be the way

shrewd lantern
#

moreso this week

tribal vortex
#

yeah I think this week it will always be

#

these crests are ultra useless

shrewd lantern
#

although the sweaty option is to hoard honor for next week

but also champ crests are also kinda useless but a bit less

especially since bracer such a small slot

#

yy i agree about 2nd item yeah

vestal escarp
#

weird nerfs to bp

tribal vortex
#

i wanna wait check the drops the first days and then craft a slot i wasn't lucky

hollow spear
#

You basically don't mess things up by crafting a bracer. You got a low stat budget item and get the embellishment, which brings value.

tribal vortex
#

y I understand but if i get wrist from m+ and not belt for example i craft belt

#

also waiting for prices to drop a bit

In the end the difference kinda negligible at this point. Stuff gets way more important with heroic and mythic crests.

Interesting...I just was fucking around with talents and took the 1 point out of finality and put it into gloomblade and it outsims the finality build by 21 damage

21 damage is effectively equal btw

i know, but just wasnt aware, just saying it 🙂

But its because you have worse stats and no tier set

@quaint remnant ill show you

#

this drop down, you need to make minimum quality the 5/5. you made yours at 3/5. You need make level mats. If you look when you do this, every minimum quality you change, chnages the iLvl of the item.

vale pine
#

(but also less gain)

quaint remnant
#

Because when i send the request i didn't change anything it was like this.

quaint remnant
agile ingot
#

only in guild/private orders

rancid sierra
#

Not sure if its an ELVui thing, but mine just has it when i click on crafting order table.

#

top right

quaint remnant
#

Ohh i see, it's only if im in a guild?

rancid sierra
#

No

agile ingot
#

or private, like find someone from trade chat

lavish rose
#

is there an on use to be farming

#

havent been able to get one to drop

rancid sierra
#

It has to be private or guild maker

#

yes

#

you cant do public orders that require a level

quaint remnant
#

I see, im kinda new to the game

#

this is an alt and i was testing this craft system

#

so, using public orders i can never get a 259 item right?

rancid sierra
#

you need to find someone to make it - and then you type their name and make minimum requirement level

#

you can recraft your dagger

quaint remnant
#

i see now

rancid sierra
#

yup

quaint remnant
#

There's any easy way to find anyone that can craft?

quaint remnant
#

I don't want to bother you guys

rancid sierra
#

Just find someone that can make 259, give them best mats, and then you can click this

tribal vortex
#

When you talk to the guy, you press recraft order

#

What does our cooldown usage look like? Do we ever send SD if sectec is still on cooldown?
How many shadow dances are we expected to use while SB is on cooldown?

you dont need sparks, you just remake it

to 5/5

the stat proc for 12s you can adjust

idk how do you check that

12 sec kinda lowuptime

I've been reading up on the crafting/gearing discussion, but I find it super confusing. As a returning player from BFA last, what's the biggest change to pve gearing? Is pvp still just conquest-centered?

Hey guys, do we still storm on 0 cp when coup is ready?

sand flax
#

IDK if anyone else has ran the numbers but based on our AOE damage breakdown now, with the nerfs to AOE coming up it looks like will lose about 9.5% of our overall dmg in AOE for M+. Anyone else finding a similar result?

shrewd lantern
#

regardless

shrewd lantern
#

or i can play emberwing at 250 and pretend sub is a 2min spec

what do we think boys, is Sin the go-to now for raid/m+ now or what? I figure Sub is probably better for raid but that aoe nerf looks a bit hefty

jade urchin
#

why does it say 500 damage from shuriken storm on ST sim with 0 casts

#

what am i misisng

hazy breach
#

Its rounding it down, its probably like 0.2 casts or something

#

Its irrelevant, its just used as a fallback in the sim to make it not break sometimes, dw about it

jade urchin
#

makes sense

buff rogue?

pallid jackal
#

How do you guys sim for consumables / food?

#

Do you just take stat priority in raidbots?

warm marlin
#

it doesnt have new stuff yet after buffs btw

#

sub probably in top half

sweet moss
#

no

#

thtas after buffs

hazy breach
#

Yesnt

raw wadi
#

That without recent changes

hazy breach
#

The trickster one seems to be with some of the sub buffs, but again its impossible to know how much theyll buff sub by

sweet moss
#

no with new changes

plush roost
sweet moss
#

its 101k

#

mb

hazy breach
#

My guess is that its just using +8% on eviscerate

#

Not the clones or shadowed finishers

sweet moss
#

idk why all those updated except rogue

warm marlin
#

im sure some other specs have apl work to do as well

#

so its not entirely clear

hazy breach
#

But also, like i just said

#

Its literally impossible to know how much theyll buff us by

plush roost
#

Yeah surely feral is 120k 😉

raw wadi
#

For example

sweet moss
#

yeah....

hazy breach
#

Because theres almost no chance they remember to add all the buffs to all the clone attacks

inner prairie
#

Is this new based on coming tuning?

sweet moss
#

half are new half are old

hazy breach
#

As they have to do that manually

sweet moss
#

ignore it

do u go haste mastery or crit mastery for wep

hazy breach
chrome palm
#

apex secret would be a huge deal for aoe so a heavy handed nerf beforehand would make sense if it was getting fixed, not that i think it will be

paper trail
#

I assume haste for now

hazy breach
#

If you have your haste capped, dont go haste

paper trail
#

and mby swap later

hazy breach
#

If youdont, then you can go haste

paper trail
#

It's 18% ye?

hazy breach
#

~650-700

chrome palm
#

omega copium

hazy breach
#

Sorry to burst your bubble but i dont think they wouldve buffed our ST if they fixed that

plush roost
#

Ah but you see

chrome palm
#

theyre gonna let us have good st for once

plush roost
#

Thats why they only buffed it 6%!

#

Instead of 15%!

#

Surely...

hazy breach

ehehe

guys sub is gonna be below assa in heroic surely

#

then omega buff

alpine wraith

time to bet how many things are buffed too

for myth week

#

Messer i swear assa is undersimming

#

Like not a little bit

chrome palm
#

it must be if they didnt buff it lol

plush roost
#

A lotta bit

#

I was hitting a dummy for hrs today and consistenly was 4-5k above sim

hazy breach
#

Presumably not an execute dummy

plush roost
#

Yes

#

I didnt even hit execute

#

So its even more than one would think

vestal escarp
#

Sin undersimmed sine end of Sl maybe

#

It's the shit we've always been saying OMEGAKEKW

plush roost
#

I sim 27.5k on target dummy

vestal escarp
#

I cant say it's factually true or fals but i also belive that

chrome palm
#

i mean, sin SHOULD be a top tier ST dps, since the raid imo seems to heavily not favor it

plush roost
#

The sin sim seems to drop implacable too much and loses envenom casts me thinks

#

Like force drop it

#

Im still trying to figure it out

hazy breach
#

Do you have a raidbots sim of that i can compare it to

warm marlin
pallid jackal
#

I am under haste cap but mastery flasks simmed best for me

hard trellis
covert pine
#

🧢

alpine wraith
#

because overcapping haste is not that good

#

if you do a topgear with different items other flasks may sim more

pallid jackal
#

Yeah I just select flasks there and do it that way, that's the way right?

stone vessel
#

what's the haste cap?

alpine wraith
#

what i meant is you would also need to change some gear

alpine wraith
#

there is no cap but around 650-700 it begins losing value

faint quail
#

is outlaw so high up just bc broken sim?

#

the "simming high"

willow knoll
#

700 is where I stopped

alpine wraith
#

outlaw does fine dmg

pallid jackal
willow knoll
#

the percentiles are not super helpful

#

Look for the flat amount

alpine wraith
#

yea so haste flask is losing quite bit of value

pallid jackal
alpine wraith
#

you can just do the math kinda i would always use the mastery or crit one anyway

warm marlin
alpine wraith
#

it is better to think haste in numbers instead of %

#

because different races have different buffs that may affect it

pallid jackal
#

I am at 536 points now without enchants or stuff

alpine wraith
#

but those dont work on dance inc

#

yea so it is better for you to just gear more haste and use mastery flask

willow knoll
#

What's an alt that a rogue player might like

#

like alt class

pallid jackal
#

I think haste will only be at the beginning anyways since we're gearing up

willow knoll
#

yeah we're fine

#

I just realized I've been doing M0 without improved black powder on

#

because I had raid tree on

#

like the entire time

#

and I've still been pumping which makes me think that the AOE loss is kind of whatever

#

Like we'll probably still do strong AOE

wet anvil
#

nah just people are crazy "should i reroll" like they are going to push r1 keys

willow knoll

And now we have some ST

umbral bone
#

okay this is it, im good now right? i dont technically need 700?

willow knoll
#

like a feedback loop

I was at 680 something and it felt fine

I think anywhere between 650-700 is good from what I've been hearing

yea sub is more simple

#

thats the secondaries one

dont be so sure man

Havoc is looking REALLY good

i think like 90% of dev players will not play it very well at all

i can see them playing havoc on dragon boss and nexus king for example, since AR is strong and quarry is even stronger now

this is a very scentifically rigorous prediction

Hey, playing rogue again for the first time in 10 years. Giving sub a go. Can someone tell me:

  • What do blue combo points mean?
  • Why do we want to use shadow dance before secret technique? All i can see is stealth gives me shadowstrike over backstab.
  • Is crimson vial the only heal we have?

Thanks!

I use the following macro for the 2nd Shadow Dance during Shadow Blades.

#showtooltip Shadow Dance
/cast [nostealth] Shadow Dance
/cast [mod:shift] Eviscerate
/cast [nomod,stance:2] Shadowstrike

If I have combo points I use a shift modifier to cast Eviscerate.
If I don't have combo points I don't use a modifier and spam the button until it casts Shadowstrike.

I just found out about the Deathstalker Shadow Dance + Shuriken Storm macro so I'm wondering if I should replace the Shadowstrike in my macro with Shuriken Storm even for Trickster?

Strike has a delay in macros with dance

Not really a macro issue, you just cant use strike immediately after dancing. Theres like a 0.1-0.2s delay before you can use it

azure thicket
#

any plater users/enjoyers know what setting causes these dummy thick friendly player hp bars and how to adjust it without turning off blizz ui?

Trickster uses Dance+Sectech and because of the strike delay deathstalker prefers to Dance+Storm

Do we even want to use shadow dance if sec tec isn't up?

Still learning the nuances. I know this may be obvious. Is there even a situation where they wouldn't line up?

No

#

I mean to use a macro for strike inside with dance
