  • Is shadow dance up? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
  • Do you have 5 or more stacks of shadow techniques? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
  • Do you have Darkest Night up OR A supercharged combo point? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes

if that s your actual macro your potion is written correctly, and you should ctrl left click it into the macro

it's not called fleeting light's potential xd

Again the sim aint optimized for 16-24 second fights

#

i guess that was the mistake then, thanks πŸ™‚

daring pike
hazy breach
#

The sim delays its second dance a bit to supercharge the sectech with 4p+guidon, because if you dont then your sectech timing gets screwed later

#

But yeah on a 16 second fight its not ideal to do that

frosty sinew
#

sim does it even without 4p

#

hey guys, quick question, as deathstalker during SD, do we optimize the apex only for darkest nigh, or optimize it with every evisc ?

frosty sinew

just guidon

Yeah

@vale pine do you have the string for custom simc for the vessel trinket? (buff uptime) or is there any way to sim it below 80% uptime

Anyone willing to look over my logs? I’m new to sub rogue myself and just want to get better

main flower
minor finch
#

Anyone know if the shadow damage triggers the magic vuln from Demon Hunters ? Got one as my tank and just interested

hazy breach
#

Yes shadow damage gets increased by the DH debuff

minor finch
#

In general does anything that is not strictly physical get buffed ? Like Nature damage from Ass poisons ?

azure mauve
#

yes

#

anything that is not physical aka magic dmg gets buffed by dh buff

stuck arrow
#

Puzzle box probably not.

#

Other trinkets fine unless it's a haste buff then you want to have that go before you send dance.

subtle jay
fading saffron
#

i thought the idea is to NOT macro haste trinkets with dance/sectec, because of how long it takes for the game to do the check for deepening shadows? since it takes like a full 1 sec to do so

stuck arrow
#

Correct.

tribal vortex
#

you can macro to blades though

#

and press dance one sec after

Do we have Sims with the rogue buffs?

@fuu in-game it says mythic crests on M+10 not +7. Do we know which is right?

frosty sinew

it's +9

unless it was changed the past few days

why are the blizzard sound alerts all so long or weird/noisy

ill trust that over random people

wouldn't surprise me if they've changed it

Hey quick question, ran sims before raid last week and Alnseer was only showing as a 1k dps increase. Ran sims today in prep for tomorrow and it's now showing a 7.2k increase. I had 2 pc during the first sim as well as the same embellishments, but clearly between my other upgrades and now it's gained a ton of a value. Is that the general sentiment for the trinket or am I missing something?

!fuu

frosty sinew

gaze is bugged in game to do more dmg and sim now reflects that is the tldr

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.

gritty gate
#

guys If it's for single target, why would I want to use Black Powder after Coup de Grace?

frosty sinew

ye it is supposed to have an icd on proccing the trinket

but it doesn't

#

in game

do i insta send heroic crests on end boss pants (heroic)

I want to ask something. Should I use Secret Technique right after Shadow Dance, or should I use Shadow Dance + Shadow Blades before Secret Technique?

random mason
#

30 shadow dances 23 sectecs

stuck tulip
#

We recraft dagger with myth crests this reset right?

onyx flame
tulip light
# frosty sinew if following larias guide atleast

yeah seems like no bad scenario. no way to get higher track heroic items and if u get a mythic piece from vauilt at some point you want to max out with heroic crests anyways to save 20 mythic etc. also if not lucky in vault the only upgrade is from mythic endboss so

onyx flame
#

That hurt

clever shale
#

there is a bug with ancient art or am i trippin ? whenever i get the proc and enter shadow dance and press secret techeniqe or evicerate i dont regan my proc

random mason
#

Doesnt work with sectec

bleak wind
#

it does work with sectec, doesn't work when premed is up

clever shale
#

so this is a bug or what ?

hazy breach
#

Yep

#

!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.

hazy breach
#

And if youre wondering how Sectech, which hits way harder than eviscerate, has its clone doing roughly the same damage as eviscerate, well thats another bug

clever shale

Anyone using UUF and can see Alleria P1 amp dmg debuff ?

Well theres nothing you can do about it in that situation

Like ye you could BP, but thats worse

yeah thats exactly what i thought lol

damn that sucks

But I mean before it was 100% over simming.

I have the pvp one, was thinking of the one that is guaranteed every two weeks. Forgot when we got the first one. If it's this reset (tomorrow), I'll send my 3 piece now (since I'm guaranteed 4set on reset). But if it's next week, I'll hold off

You should already have the first one.

but i'd hold until you can guarantee 4p

You should have got one baseline, then if you have one from pvp that's two. But yeah next one on the 31st iirc.

short radish
#

you should also be waiting to see what comes out of vault next week

#

if you get a piece of tier there

#

you can make 4 by catalysing the other pieces

shrewd lantern

yeah why i havent sent any cata

haughty drum
#

Is there a spot in the discord channels that show the bis trinket ranks currently instead of looking at wowhead (assuming they outdate)

"Bis trinket ranks" are irrelevant

how to find your best setup

haughty drum
shrewd lantern
#

literally just use raidbots

dense geode
#

How come when I sim with less than ideal haste it still wants me using Crit/mast. Is it because the sim doesnt calculate ping/1.2coup/etc?

shrewd lantern
#

bot plays perfect i think

stuck arrow
#

There's some factor in there for ping iirc.

verbal kelp
#

should we use coup de grace with supercharge in aoe or use BP?

Coup pretty much always more damage than BP.

fallow nimbus

It's so bad that first boss drops wrists. How can i justify crafting wrists now garf_sit

#

It was always the best slot

stuck arrow
#

Could just craft without spark.

fallow nimbus
#

Will probably do that for m+ spam

stuck arrow
#

It's what I did. TBH might not even craft second slot next week. See how it goes.

#

I've got a ring with Iris on it, seems to sim really well. I don't think it scales as well as arcano, but seems not worth it for now to actually craft.

lilac stag
#

Iris is just ST

shrewd lantern
#

I have pvp wrists

fallow nimbus
#

Also a 2nd mythic craft is like so far in the future that a wrist with just spark+embellishment is the most gain/less stats lost compared belt or boots, cloak would work too

#

Also a socket from this week could go right onto it

lilac stag
#

Crests are a big limiter

stuck arrow
#

Might change my mind once I start pulling m+.

lilac stag
#

embellishment ain’t gonna make that up

fallow nimbus
#

Yeah but running around with like 259 wrists vs 259 boots/belt hurt less

The smoke cloud thing is unironically pretty good, especially if we get an actual on-use

short radish
#

this is probably going to be misinformation so correct me on the first part if i'm wrong about it

Sub rogue didn't "scale" as well in stats as other classes (typically haste enjoyers)

you think that profile has changed at all?

hazy breach
#

Well we arent stacking vers

#

So yes, but it also doesnt matter that much

#

Theres not enough stat gains within a tier for that to really be impactful

west tide
#

we have dr poison

But yes exiles got it

short radish
# west tide we have dr poison

im sure blizzard thought of a world where they'd bring 2 rogues so both poisons would be applied when they first thought of this

hazy breach
#

As long as you dont lose ilvl

#

Just get slightly more haste

jaunty heath
#

That's the way, but than loot sim like shit and I get none

short radish
light finch
#

give rogue 3% crit buff and all is good

uncut scarab
short radish
#

shaman give mast
druid give vers
nothing gives crit/haste yet

pretty sure we used to have crit buff

#

once upon a time

jaunty heath
#

There is still time for little outlaw buff

short radish
#

honor amongst thieves or somethjing

light finch
#

before rogue gets anything, they will give DK haste or crit buff, because they only have grip, can ignore 70% of raid mechanics, why not a buff on top of that for one of their favorite classes

short radish
#

trueeeee

lofty horizon
#

Wasn't honor among thieves the combo point per crit in the raid.. good times.

agile kernel
#

Frankly if the %dr poison or mind numbing stacked with diminishing returns you would at least see 2-3 rogues instead of 1.

short radish
#

nobody tell him

light finch
#

but only for cutting edge progress, for > 200 World Guilds Damage Inc is not a Problem anymore because of Gear.

agile kernel
#

but raid viability has slightly different issues than m+ viability. The lack of utility outside shroud, which is countered by mob requirements, is the biggest issue.

hazy breach
#

It definitely is

#

Shroud isnt really countered by mob requirement

#

Its countered by every mob you want to skip having truesight

agile kernel
#

that and its usefulness greatly varies dungeon to dungeon

#

I think if the AoE blind was a 30 second cd and not 1 minute, then blackjack would bring enough utility be enough

Utility is fucking cope

its about damage

fuck pit is going to be so cancer

tribal blade
#

pit seemed fine on 10s at least

#

but with less gear prob not

ripe flame

lost rampart
#

So I made the stupid mistake of Hero crafting Farstrider’s Mercy. Given that, would it still be optimal to Myth upgrade it immediately or should I use those crests on another crafted item?

Just a ton of massive pulls

short radish

every key is going to be 130% route or something

tribal blade
#

i'm hoping they feel as chill as they did on beta

#

but likely not

short radish
#

i say this without playing a single beta key

#

and only doing m0s this week

shrewd lantern
#

how many myth crests did we get this week

#

just 30 right

strange chasm
#

3 5

shrewd lantern
#

null gave me 30

#

huh

strange chasm
#

i mean 45 if you killed crown

shrewd lantern
#

so crown's 15

strange chasm
#

?? gives 35 and crown 10 for 45

shrewd lantern
#

i only got 10

#

30

#

wtf

#

even google says null should be 30

#

first time a season

plush roost
#

He also drops 5

#

30 and 5

#

And 60 and 10 hero

shrewd lantern
#

he didnt have 5 on him when i looted him

#

though

chrome palm
#

It’s random afaik

plush roost
#

Get scammed nerd

chrome palm
#

Have fun with your 5 gilded crest xd

plush roost
#

Some people got double 30

chrome palm
#

Saw that

#

Demonic

plush roost
shrewd lantern
#

prob did it day 1

plush roost
#

Implying im not doing like 100

#

XD

shrewd lantern
#

yeah only the null first time ones dont count to cap right

shrewd lantern
#

what the actual helly

#

i only got 180

plush roost
#

Should be 60 from null and 20 from the 1 thing i cant remembwr

shrewd lantern
#

the housing shit?

#

i thought those count towards cap

plush roost
#

No something elae

tribal blade
#

what's the best curios for ??

plush roost
#

Voidspire

#

And the unseen blade icon one

tribal blade
#

ool

#

cool

plush roost
#

10% crit and 18% damage

#

Gl bro shit was so annoying to solo

shrewd lantern
#

oh the prey shit

#

btw the larias guide says null only drops 30 hero so idk

tribal blade
#

and was like fuck this lol

shrewd lantern
#

says you should be at 180 hero so im good ig

dreamy root
ripe flame
#

yep

shrewd lantern
#

yeah ig

#

i have 180 hero so i guess i got them all

swift tinsel
#

60 total that dont count towards cap

#

plus 20 from prey quest

#

the one that gives a map beacon too

shrewd lantern
#

says only 30 myth not to cap so idk how people got 35

swift tinsel
#

yeah idk how some got 5 extra from ??

icy silo
swift tinsel
#

but you can get 20 from delve 11's from gilded

#

I'm at 50 myth atm

shrewd lantern
#

you leveled them preseason?

kind edge
#

!bugs

wicked joltBOT
swift tinsel
#

did a bunch of 8's on alts

shrewd lantern
#

thought you need multiple chars

#

to level yeah

swift tinsel
#

opened a bunch of chests

#

yeah its hands down the fastest way

#

bc you get 430 journey rep per if you open the chest on an 8

shrewd lantern
#

i thought it was from killing the nemesis guys

#

or rather the chest is from killing them

#

at the end

swift tinsel
#

you get 80 from nemesis chest, 150 from it being bountiful 8, 200 from opening chest

#

additional 300 if you open map chest

#

you can get the 80 from killing I think just 1 group, that doesn't scale just the contents of the nemesis chest

#

potentially still get 80 from not killing any

#

idqr

#

I vibe hard with delves I just love doing them

valeera sucks though

#

compared to bran

short radish
#

she does more damage though

native parrot
#

And she’s not a dwarf

shrewd lantern
#

hatarang bran did more

oblique stream
#

I'd rather Valeera than have bran call me champion for another 2 years

tribal blade
#

holy shit i got him down to like 4% and he got a lucky crit melee on me

#

for 200k

lilac stag
#

ok all the preseason stuff done

spiral pewter
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
tribal blade
#

is there a trick for the last 20% of the boss

#

he's absolutely trucking at that point

#

and then during dances in cds he didn't swap to valeera

#

for some reason

lilac stag
#

I had 2 wipes at 1%. I finally said fuck it and killed the add

#

take both

#

i used numbling. seemed better than atroph

#

evasion tank after an interrupt

#

i legit sent everything into last add, then it was just interrupt and do the basic mechanics

#

Have interact bound so you can res her if need be. Evasion after an interrupt then res

torpid lance

hey guys, stepping over here after they embarrassed arms warrior. hope to have good things in store!

#

i shoulda put gwb_uwu in there to fuck with ya

tribal blade
#

LOL

lilac stag
#

I didn't wait for blades. I just made sure i had a sectech ready for each add spawn then launched blades while the adds were engaged

#

you can also stack supercharged if you really want to push the first phase

#

4 chrages seemed to get everything to line up for me

lilac stag
swift tinsel
#

was watching Biz crank as arms too

tribal blade

ok nice killed it

swift tinsel

I should give it a go on the dh

now that he's not babby anymore

tribal blade
swift tinsel

hellll yeah

#

big gratz!~

tribal blade
#

ty!

#

only did it for the myth crests

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

wasn't that bad tbh

lilac stag
#

The frustrating part is the ping pong of health.

tribal blade

yeah just randomly dying

Fight is a joke compared to Kyveza, but the mount is way cooler

lilac stag
white tapir
#

when you do that ?? fight, what did you have valeera as, healer, tank, and what curios?

pulsar hemlock
#

Healer, the damage curio that procs 25sec into combat and the utility one that is the shield at 40% hp

#

My valeera is lvl23

swift tinsel
#

alright two toons about to have the most blessed vaults imaginable

#

dh almost up to same ilvl as rogue lol

sacred reef
#

why does ancient arts sometimes be consumed and not grant full combo points? bug or am i regarded

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.

#

Do we BP on 2+ targets even for prio dmg? e.g. I don't care about adds health

tribal blade
#

evis on 2 targets will do more prio

#

BP on 2t will do more overall if you're talented into potent powder

spare totem
#

Why do I feel like a wet noodle in raid compared to some other classes.

spare totem
#

Holy Christ all mighty

tribal blade
#

yeah all 3 rogue specs down bad in raid atm

#

but 3/4% buffs incoming

#

quite conservative, but still a buff

#

also most sub rogues don't have 4pc yet which is a huge power bump

spare totem
#

Running with my guild I gap people but pugging I get gapped so fucking hard.

tribal blade
#

for reference demo which is the top spec gains basically nothing from their 4pc

crystal quiver
#

is it more efficient to use myth crests on crafted embel wep or w8 till 2nd boss dies

spare totem
#

Just shows my guild dps is utter dog shit

tribal blade
#

and i think they're getting nerfed too can't remember

tribal blade
#

you just put the embel dagger in your offhand

#

so it's safe to send it to myth

crystal quiver
#

well im kinda an idiot an upgraded my heroic dagger drop so idk what the most optimal thing is now XD

#

still just mythic embel dagger?

tribal blade
#

oh that wasn't a good use of hero crests lol

#

but yeah pretty safe to send it on embel dagger

#

you get a big power bump early and don't screw yourself

crystal quiver
#

so then question is

#

if i get dagger drop on mythic

#

is it worth upgrading that vs a dif piece of mythic

#

or crafting

#

etc

tribal blade
#

that i'm not sure about

#

i would probably just keep the embel dagger in your main hand and put the myth dagger in OH

swift tinsel
#

Imma spend the next 12 hours manifesting 4pc for this week

tribal blade
#

and sit on the crests till it's more clear what to do

crystal quiver
#

ye well thing is my heroic dagger is base lvl myth dag

#

so XD

rain meadow
#

do we embelish wep?

swift tinsel
#

Hero track vault, lfr tier normal tier cata champ or delve hero piece

#

Plus contingency ksm cata charge

tribal blade
spare totem
#

I feel so down bad. I hate not parsing on some boss encounters. Dreamrift feels like hell and so does dragons.

tribal blade
onyx flame
spare totem
#

I wanna know how there are sub rogues parsing 100s. So insane and don’t even understand or how comprehen wtf I’m doing wrong

#

Probably beating myself up to much since this is my first time ever playing sub

shrewd lantern
#

you pad adds

#

on dragons

shrewd lantern
#

really not that complex

crystal quiver
#

my guild has insane aoe

#

ads die before i can black powder twice

#

XD

shrewd lantern
#

thats why you hold sectech and coup

#

and rip on spawns

spare totem
#

Ya the pug grp I was in were just blowing up the adds

tribal blade
#

well there's literally nothing you can do if the rest of the raid is doing mondo aoe

crystal quiver
tribal blade
#

so i woudln't worry about it

spare totem
#

I see now. If I’m in a heavy aoe comp I’m just gonna get super fucking gaped i guess

crystal quiver
#

the ads die before then XD

onyx flame
#

And i think our logs on dreamrift dont really work, i miss 10% active time on normal and hc while alot other have 99%+
I am constantly attacking something. I should log myself next reset

tribal blade
#

all you can do is hold dance+sectec and hope you get enough casts off

shrewd lantern
#

me as someone who killed tuesday

#

so stuff actually lived

tribal blade
#

i killed it later in the week

#

but i guess my guild just was doing no aoe lol

#

so i got a 95

spare totem
#

I see so where I’m at finally getting to it. I’m gonna have a hard time now.

shrewd lantern
#

join a pug

#

with shit geared chars

#

although hc logs

tribal blade
#

yeah that's a pretty easy way to get a good parse

#

but true nobody looks at heroic logs

#

only mythic

shrewd lantern
#

join your guilds alt run

#

is prob the best way

#

ngl

tribal blade
#

YO do a sale with your guild

#

get a bunch of carries

#

tell them to die

spare totem
#

Fair enough. Well that’s for talking me through it. I feel a bit better now

tribal blade
#

on every fight

#

pad aoe

#

win

spare totem
#

Thanks*

shrewd lantern
#

you join the alt run where 3 people brought a "i just hit 90 an hour ago" toons

#

to

tribal blade
#

parsing is a meme

#

and this tier on heroic is even more of a meme

#

because of pad aoe

onyx flame
#

I am afraid of mythic, it will be my first season of mythic raiding ever.

shrewd lantern
#

yeah only mythic logs matter

swift tinsel
#

Mythic is fun until you start progging the roster boss

tribal blade
#

pre turbo boost mythic adds will live a while guaranteed

#

this early on

#

unless tuning is wack

shrewd lantern
#

me playing araz

#

pre and post turbo

tribal blade
#

lol post turbo boost is rough

swift tinsel
#

I skipped turbo and my mental thanks me

tribal blade
#

that's when shit starts dying in 5 seconds

shrewd lantern
#

no i just played sin on araz

#

post turbo

#

cba

tribal blade
#

ooo full ethical dam

#

i'm considering going sin for crown

shrewd lantern
#

full ethical spatter dam

tribal blade
#

i dont' think sin has pad spatter dam anymore

shrewd lantern
#

not anymore

swift tinsel
#

I wish I didn’t dislike implacable gameplay as much as I do to keep me from playing sin

tribal blade
#

when i did the raid on normal the dmg is very ethical

#

overall

#

as sin

tribal blade
shrewd lantern
#

tuning will see

tribal blade
#

but the last apex node is so good

#

so much fun

shrewd lantern
#

i already set up cdm for prepatch sin

swift tinsel
#

I hate playing around the stack

tribal blade
#

makes kingsbane feel like a nuclear button

swift tinsel
#

Megastab kingsbane is def fun though ye

shrewd lantern
#

well kb felt mid

tribal blade
#

i used sin to hit 1600 in solo shuffle

shrewd lantern
#

prior

tribal blade
#

and KB is a big burst button

swift tinsel
#

Idk it feels whack bc there’s times you just don’t feel like you need the energy from implacable until you do and then you need it and it’s annoying vs rewarding

tribal blade
#

followed by a ramping dot

shrewd lantern
#

i just played sub

tribal blade
#

kinda fun

shrewd lantern
#

because you can prep 4 supercharger points in the starting room

tribal blade
#

i was playing sub then decided to just no think win my way through it

shrewd lantern
#

and kill someone in the opener half the time

tribal blade
#

i didn't know that

#

damn i wish i had played sub now

shrewd lantern
#

oh yeah that monk got cooked

#

trinketed cheap in smoke only to die in a half cheap

tribal blade
#

umbral edge is the best thing they've added to sub in a while

#

definitely fits teh theme

#

very well

warm marlin
#

u can def do 6 consistently in arena if you're fast enough

shrewd lantern
#

only 40s

warm marlin
#

ah

shrewd lantern
#

after round 1

warm marlin
#

yeah starting with 6 sc cp is a bit dumb

tribal blade
#

i keep forgetting to stack supercharger before pulls in raid

shrewd lantern
tribal blade
#

not a huge loss but it's free dmg

shrewd lantern
#

and kill a dh in 4 seconds

#

idk if holding my coups is worth

#

prob

tribal blade
#

probably yes

#

dmg outside dance doesn't matter even more in pvp

shrewd lantern
#

yeah

#

you look really good on details vs unholy

#

since nimble cleaves their goon army

tribal blade
#

lol true

#

sin was honestly a lot of fun too

#

because you do ridiculous overall every game

shrewd lantern
#

i used to do that vs dks last ssn

#

ct full bleed due to pet army

tribal blade
#

the pressure is crazy

shrewd lantern
#

and i played ds

#

to watch him get ticked by singular

tribal blade
#

haha nice

#

only issue with sin is you have way less gos than sub

#

you're stuck waiting on KB every time

shrewd lantern
#

yeah you have no free cheaps

#

with dance

tribal blade
#

yup that too

left ledge
#

W sub rogue

short radish
#

i need a weak aura for that

#

oh wait.

tribal blade
#

get wrecked idiot

short radish
#

bro i forget to pot sometimes

#

im so washed

warm marlin
#

track that thing's cooldown right next to blades

#

cant forget then

tribal blade
#

i'm being lazy and just macroing in pot with guidon right now lol

jaunty heath
#

I had to unmacro pot cos of last boss again

fiery fog
#

Cant you pot on pull and on p3?

jaunty heath
#

Yes

#

You bl p3

#

And i keep forgetting pressing dance before pull too

#

So doom3d withnout WAs

fiery fog
short radish
#

im slowly building muscle memory to press dance every time i release

graceful perch
#

Why dance before p3?

fiery fog
#

You can use dance in the intermissions too to get free supercharger stacks

graceful perch
#

Ahhh i see

jaunty heath
#

And this trinket blades super charged sectech in last sec, I feel really trolled not being in dance this big part of blades

warm marlin
#

its a bit strange

#

with 4p you just cant cover all of blades anyway

jaunty heath
#

I would love to see difference between doing this thing and just sending second dance In last 7-8s of blades

#

Yeah I know but this way second half of dance is outside blades

#

Its not issue with bl

hazy lichen
#

for cosmos fight

#

should we be eviscerating the big adds on p1

#

or cleaving with black powder

hazy lichen
#

on h

warm marlin
#

i did not cast a single black powder on that fight

hazy lichen
#

did u do big dam

warm marlin
#

not really

jaunty heath
#

I had pulls when I was pressing and pulls when not

warm marlin
#

but the adds dont matter

#

like they will explode to fury/dev/dev/other stuff anyway

#

and there's some point in the amp where its more damage to evis the big guy taking 300% extra damage or whatever

open swan
#

Only padding important don't forget

jaunty heath
#

I will get some practice on that boss tonight, doing 3x heroic boost as we can't afford enchants

short radish
#

i dont think people understand how little void droplet damage matters in p1 on logs

jaunty heath
#

Fight is cool, just wish they fixed visibility of arrows in p2

native zodiac
#

It will be much better in a 20man

#

Big problem of that fight is 30 plonkers in 1 spot so you cant see shit

jaunty heath
#

Yeah

warm marlin
tribal blade
#

that boss is gonna be splits city

native zodiac
#

Who would have seen this coming Clueless

hazy lichen
#

and should i be waiting to use sectec for when he takes more

#

or send on cd

native zodiac
#

Send on cd unless your raid phases the boss faster then 1:30

warm marlin
tribal blade
#

yeah i was trying to figure out how to track it on nameplates

#

couldn't see shit

#

good to know

warm marlin
#

there is a way to track it because our spriest was gooning over it

tribal blade
#

mmm ok

warm marlin
#

i just dont have it setup

#

or its buried in 18 debuffs

tribal blade
#

might have something on platynator

hazy lichen
#

ok its tracking for me

#

on default ui

#

under target frame

tribal blade
#

can you link what it looks like

#

or screenshot

hazy lichen
#

ye

fiery fog
hazy lichen
tribal blade
#

i might have missed it while progging

#

ah ok

hazy lichen
tribal blade
#

need to figure out if i can get that on nameplates

fiery fog
#

Never use backstab if there are blobs

tribal blade
#

backstab is only for 1 target

hazy lichen
#

but use strike

#

when its up

#

over storm?

fiery fog
#

Mhm i think strike might be better most of the time because of the amp

tribal blade
#

hard to say ngl because storm gens more CP if there's like 4+

hazy lichen
#

yea

#

also

#

gives u more stacks if u storm

#

cause less cp usage

tribal blade
#

you get more finisher apex if you storm

hazy lichen
#

which means double

#

ye

tribal blade
#

but maybe strike is fine

#

i'm looking at the number 1 log for crown

#

he's almost exclusively pressing stirke in dance on the P1 mobs

#

looks like he'll weave in a storm sometimes

#

prob for DM

warm marlin
tribal blade
#

tf number 2 log is sus af

#

either his raid group is destroying the adds insta

#

or he's pressing backstab way too much

#

hard to say

warm marlin
#

yeah it's a chinese boost log

short radish
tribal blade
#

oh shit zac has a sub log

hazy lichen
#

rank 1 opener

#

wtf

tribal blade
#

yeah everyone is exclusively striking the big mobs during dance P1

#

which makes it actually much simpler

golden totem
#

Strike in dance, storm outside is usually what I did

tribal blade
#

less brain think

#

yeah looks like that's the move

oak sorrel
#

hey i have a 276 weapon why my logs suck

fiery fog
#

Press buttons correctly

hazy lichen
#

wait

wheat edge
#

Alleria complete cinema boss

tribal blade
#

gear isn't going to help if you do rotation wrong or send cds wrong

hazy lichen
#

does he delay his cds a bit

#

for the damage amp

wheat edge
#

We killed it right as we exploded

hazy lichen
#

on that opener

golden totem
#

Only time I would storm over strike in this fight is when I am not in melee range for 1gcd of target in p2

short radish
tribal blade
short radish
#

updated ytd

#

with why

tribal blade
#

if you wait like ~2-3 seconds that's when they spawn

oak sorrel
#

week 1 heroic alleria is gonna have a ton of killing it while the floor is purple and there’s like 5 ppl alive

tribal blade
#

some people wait like 2 seconds on pull

#

some wait ~10 secs on pull

oak sorrel
#

my log was probably ass bc i never pressed bp more than like once or twice lol

short radish
#

bp does not matter

wheat edge
frosty sinew
#

you really aren't using bp anyways

tribal blade
#

yeah dmg to those droplets means nothing

#

absolutely nothing

oak sorrel
#

means nothing for parse?

short radish
#

correct

frosty sinew
#

ye the big adds have huge damage amps

oak sorrel
#

oh i meant the p2 adds

tribal blade
#

i predict logs removes the droplets at some point

frosty sinew
#

those die so fast

wheat edge
#

Ethical breakdown? garf

tribal blade
#

exactly

golden totem
#

I got assassinated in p3 on Alleria kill yesterday Sadge

frosty sinew
#

and you're not specced into potent powder so it's not that much more dps than just sending evis

tribal blade
#

any time there's adds like that on any fight where they both explode and mean nothing

oak sorrel
#

like i would fully expect parselords to be spamming early p1 and all p2 adds

hazy lichen
tribal blade
#

wcl will remove them

golden totem
short radish
hazy lichen
#

but does that explain what hes doing?

frosty sinew
#

i mean whats he doing weird

golden totem
frosty sinew
#

other than delaying the cds for adds

warm marlin
tribal blade
#

it's not wrong

sour horizon
frosty sinew
#

binding baldes to trinket is not optimal but doesnt really matter

tribal blade
#

casting blades before trinket is a bit weird

#

but overall it's fine

#

or yeah it's macro'd together

golden totem
#

Im in puzzle prison but when I get the real trinket I'll macro it to blades too NODDERS

tribal blade
#

right now since you need to wait ~1 sec for guidon

#

i do guidon>blades while waiting>dance+sectec

golden totem
frosty sinew
#

at worst it will take 1 second to register the haste

tribal blade
golden totem
#

Fck

tribal blade
#

worst case scenario it's up to 1 sec

golden totem
#

Might not macro then

frosty sinew
#

and you have no way of knowing how long it will take

tribal blade
#

if you're lucky shorter

frosty sinew
#

if you want to be safe have to do 1 second every time

tribal blade
#

so the only way to guarantee it is wait 1 sec

fallow nimbus
#

That's why it felt so inconsequent

wheat edge
#

I also knew it was the kill pull when I smashed my head on the keyboard in the opener

frosty sinew
#

ye i completely trolled my crown kill

#

happens

short radish
#

none of you can beat my crown kill opener

frosty sinew
#

gaming

#

honestly without 4 set

and just baby crafted weapon
