wdym we have new proto drakes there! It's so cool, random trash mobs have more polygons on their ass than bosses wooooo
that talent is ass
damn fr?
what about veiltouched over weaponmaster
Weaponmaster is way better now, but its still just pure ST
that's good at least
Use finality and potent powder on aoe, ignore weaponmaster and first dance
At least that's what im doing on aoe
tfd is good in m+
Might need to reconsider my m+ talents then
dances are strong
So you tfd instead of finality?
are you speccing 2/2 finality?
1/2
It's just so I have something better than weaponmaster for aoe
But I guess tfd could work
Just need to tell my tank to wait 6sec after each pack 
it happens naturally often
I mean yeah, on spire you can get almost constant tfd bcs you pull each room together
And you pull the hallways with the rooms
So you can get consistend tfd procs
do yall generally think maisara trink isnt worth the headache
nope it sucks
fuck vessel
You can't see it
Purple orbs in purple raid?
Tyvm blizzard
or at least I think they're purple
Tbf I only tried it once
Then vendored it
this trinket might be okay
theyre more greenish
it hink
i also only used it once
I just don't like that dungeon in general
Still better than row or den so im happy its here instead of those 2
I'm gonna get my portal for caverns and never touch it again
I think all dungeons this tier are at least okay
Are you guys fully upgrading both spark items this week? Or only weapon, and then crafting another myth piece?
I'm just doing wep this week
Then just leaving rest of the 170 myth crests for items you might get in raid?
Wouldn’t you be able to both upgrade a vault item, and craft, at that rate?
feel like with how fast people got that first boss down, and it dropping our bis trinket, guilds should try it. its probably not as hard as the journal makes it out too
probs
that's not how our guild works
we don't touch mythic until we're at least 2/3 of the way through hc
i love rogue :)
mine either, ima prolly try to pug it i'm sure there will be some chad pug groups out near the end of the week.
I might look at it this weekend
idk
would like to get 2x myth down for a vault slot at least for chance at guidon or tier
having our bis on use be from the first boss, makes it 100% worth trying to get it
10's are free this week so thats 3x myth vault chances too
I need to get these cata charges dropping so I can bump my ilvl back up after saccing it for lfr tier
done a handful of m+ and delves after getting feat of str and none yet
they're free this week with our low iLevel
imagine how free they are gonna be in 2 weeks
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
We were just shy of timing 10’s on our first yolo foray into them at 250 with no tier, have since crafted myth wep and got 4pc so they’re gonna literally explode lol
yeah keys are breezy
so far the loot luck in m+ is not going too well
Had literal hand of god luck in lfr last night to get it lol
i was expecting some more resistance as you get higher but things just kinda fall over. you have to really donk up to not time
Went from 0-4pc by getting the exact two pieces I needed
After rolling sub-20 on literally every drop in raid tonight on a full clear of void and rift
The most insane turnaround luck I’ve ever had haha
I'm still annoyed that my vault only gave me 2 heroic items when it said I had 3 slots unlocked (and 6 bosses dead)
That’s super weird
I imagine it's because I had 5/6 Voidspire and 1/1 Dreamrift and it just didn't work properly
Ah yeah maybe
we still just shadowstrike in dance or do we shuriken storm?
A very blizzard bug
That was something I was wondering about since there’s gonna be three raids worth of bosses contributing to vault
Yeah
And if wires were going to get crossed
it didn't matter much since the item it rolled was bunk but it woudl've been infurating if it was the trinket or tier
We also had a couple of people win rolls and just not get the gear from raid too
Nor did it show up in their mail
geez
Oh yeah that would tilt me off the planet
oh yeah, the weekly delve quest can drop raid gear
A guildie got the Voidspire very rare neck from it and it dropped at 6/6 Champ
Yep! Got champ alleria neck
Wild
Yeah was very surprised it was in their pool
Good change though
But def not mad lol
Yeah agreed, afaik it’s just tier that’s blacklisted from the raid boxes
Having that stuff award raid items is a good shift from the normal junk
Yeah
Also legit jumped out of my chair seeing you can get 20 myth crests weekly from 11 delves on top of the gilded ones
So 40
Nice lil buffer
Which makes me think labyrinths will drop myth natty or in vault
God that'd be so good
Yeah the weekly Cracked Keysyone quest drops in 11’s and gives 20 myths crests and 20 hero crests from finishing a +2 lmao
more loot accessibility (which this season is doing realy well with the crest changes!) is so good for the game imo
It's weekly??
Yeah agreed
Sadly not. It's the intro into keystones since a Delve 11 is a little less difficult than a +2 (kinda)
I might just be thinking it was bc I ran delves on so many alts lol
So it's to push people from that into other content with a powerful incentive
And got the quest a ton
Yeah makes sense contextually
Getting 40% of your weekly myth crests from delves would’ve been kinda nutty
Considering they don’t grant the gear to spend them on
Yeah
quick question
i use sd only with secrett
and the second charge only while shadowblades right ?
Hey team, i've got 3p and i have the following dilemma to choose from vault.
Do I choose the Guidon 266 hc trinket, or do I go for 4p?
4pc 200%
yea i have 2 p now, 1 cata charge, and pending 1 tier from vault
go for 4pc
Yeah 4pc biggest gear prio
Giant dps increase
And allows charges to drop from pve
Hey, the light trinket is still bugged? i mean do activate it juste before SD?
Today’s plan is grind m+ lockdown hero tier slots and cata before raid tomorrow lol
Dude
how many charges can drop? and how often?
Don’t get me started lmao
Can hold up to 8
Drops aren’t terribly common at least for me
A buddy got their set week 1 and had 4 drop while grinding to 1.8k in arenas
I’m at 0/5 from the content I’ve done that can drop them
wtf
Gimme that luck lmao
Not sure how weighted they are
I lost like 3 or 4 ilvl taking tier from lfr and wanna claw that back lol
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
worth using hero to upgrade off hand dagger, or better spent on upgrading tier pieces?
I wonder if it’s bc I was running non-bountiful delves
Not dagger
or trinkets
Once it’s in your offhand you don’t care about it
Very weak spot dps-wise
Basically a placeholder for your embellishment
Yeah
Prio trinkets jewelry and tier
Least important slot to take up comparative to others and can just become your OH crafted dagger once you get a better MH
Or bigger stat budget slots like legs
chest, etc yeah
Then fill out wrists, belt, boots with craft if you need
MH -> Trinkets - big mainstat -> little mainstat -> jewellery -> OH is my normal formula
Yeah largely same
After we craft weapon do we just send second spark craft with mythic crest? 🙂
What are your guys thoughts on guidon + puzzle box. Sim used puzzle on sb and guidon as mini burst for sd https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/4KHWgJqN5u1ULTPh2VEv4q
Also getting the right haste finally and extra 4 sec on blades feels so good
Was trapped in 500 haste deadzone lol
Everyone here has their 4pc apparently holy moly
I just got extraordinarily lucky lol
No please don’t
I'm still 1/4 lol
Jokes on you I don’t have tier hat 
Guild funnelled me a tier piece, bis neck and guidon
Still rocking rep one from silvermoon lol
does enchant weapon slot matter or did i fuck up by putting acuity on offhand
Nice. I have to pug everything lol
Does not matter
Alright time to grind morning lfg keys
All six of them listed in the range I want lol
Pugs are alright I went in a pug halleria and they were better than my guild 😂
2nd craft a waist?
It’s a safe choice
ty ty
why is the emberweave trinket not that great when it feels like a 2min version of the flag trinket
i figured it might be better than puzzle box but it sims lower
The sectech cd gets missaligned if its every other cds
Does anyone have a way to track Coup procs better? Or an addon they may use? Currently I just use a buff that I happen to have to see is at 4 stacks
Instead of every other
Ah fair. Back to hoping for the regular trinket then
Do you guys still use guidon outside of macro because of the " bug"?
Does Sapling of the Dawnroot trinket sim weirdly? or is it actaully quite good until a higher ilvl trinket replaces it?
It sims weirdly high so I’m suspicious of it
Relative to how much it was actually contributing
Was a very small contribution to my st/overall compared to sim
!craft
Hmm, thanks for info!
are you guys just sending cata charges on cd after 4p ?
can't send cata charges if no rogue tier drops
I will be
is getting 4 set with vet gear worth since we get a charge next week?
yes bc you can loot more charges after
you get 4p asap no matter the quality of pieces
Is there a particular reason you want to? You just send it anyway
got hc guidon and chance of 4 set in the vault i assume its a wait till raid angle
I just want to know that I have it. The current addon I use just stacks the icon to 4 and doesnt change the icon or anything so when I'm in AoE sometimes I just don't notice I have a Coup I should use.
I just use the black power macro with it. No issues and out of sight out of mind
the only problem with the bp macro is when u don't notice and your max distance aoe'ing and suddenly just stop doing dmg because your not in range for coup lol
you do have to pop it before shadow dance afaiu though
12 second dances with 2 set are lmao
I mean if you don’t notice your combo points go down after a global you’re asleep.
I just wish the CDM manager wasn't dogshit I wouldn't even need to worry about that
But yeah I just bound bp alone as well
also you can track eviscerate unless you mean ub procs
it will turn into coup icon when its ready
CDM doesn't allow Evisc so my addon wont put it on my bar
Unless Im stupid
I wanted to do that at first
im using default, second tab put it in essential cooldowns afair
I am online
yeah. entire regions are down. EU DDOSing the servers 
wierd keeps only letting me in ofline
@hazy breach Would it be adviseable to craft a 3rd piece this week btw?
one min
I owe you an apology, Valeera. I wasn't familiar with your game.
you can't craft a 3rd piece as you could only have 5 sparks. It takes 2 to craft something
What are your thoughts on guidon + puzzle box, it sims well until gaze or plume
someone mentioned to pair it with the rep trinket
and it worked well on the pulls we did today on heroic dragons
what do we craft as 2nd item with myth crests?
we just hoardin crests or?
we spend them on more useful stuff than a mythic belt or wrist
honestly crafted neck seems like a good idea
might be able to get platinum star band without overdoing it
naw, you get a good haste mastery hero one next week from the 4 week "pvp" quest
ye but our bis is a rare drop off crown of the cosmos
gonna be holding that for a long time
might get the neck for assa and craft for sub imo
it's your crests and your specific situation
ddos is real lol i was getting crazy bad world ping since this afternoon tbh
Any gamers sent weap recraft even tho we have dagger from 2nd? I think I still want it because it's a good off-hand for us anyway if we luck out on the 2nd boss dagger right?
Also on that note - anyone had it bug out and take their crests
?
!up
yep, bc I don't have myth dagger yet
and I'll get myth crests faster than I can spend them on gear
Do enchant order on offhand/mainhand matter
nope
Thanks that saves a lot of gold!
In lower keys where stuff only lives for our cooldowns we should be pretty dang strong
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
puzzle box is noticabe better in m+
tieeeeeeer
both hero tract aswell
Are we kinda ass at 3 target or am I just washed?
We’re all just washed

But for real I think 3 targets is weird for us
Doing the seat trio boss really does something to make you feel worthless
blizz specificually nerfed our cleave damage to be in line with others
they just have a diffrent definition with what "in line" means
That makes me feel a little better
I’m playing without tier at 245 ilvl so I understand
I think my new fixation is coup buff updating when double procs happen
bc its slow enough to bother me lol
I would go beyond thermonuclear if that happened to me
if its just recrafting I'm glad I waited
are we still crafting belt or is it legs ive heard there was something with legs scaling
11 other dps ahead of me in a normal vanguard fight today :)c
you guys reckon it's worth upgrading belt with M crests going into Mythic
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I don't think so
Other pieces are way more worth upgrading
Yeah was thinking that but idk i like ilvl 
myth crafted belt with arcanoweave was ~3% over my champ belt
may be different for you
Hell yea was the #69 parse on heroic averzian
Sooo… 2nd myth craft after big slots like chest etc? What if I’m not raiding mythic anyway ? I’ll just get my mythic items through weekly vault
is paying 160k for lfr guidon worth it 🤔
not ideal to craft in a tier slot
Yeah, my question is also, if I should hold my crests for next week or build belt
if you want, you can always top gear sim to see how much of a gain it is to craft
🙂 true, I’ll do that brother
I'm personally not in a huge rush to craft 2nd piece atm
Hey,how does veiltouched compare to a point in finality? or is it valid to also take weaponmaster instead für m+?
Dito
Chillin with dem boys in +10s
I got 4 set last night after we cleared all of normal and 4/6 heroic. Wasnt tired yet so i ran a +8.I was pulling out numbers. Its insane
4set is cheats. 😂
But yeah, atleast early keys feel good.
Got an lfr peice, 2 normal pieces and used my cata charge. Immediately got two more cata charges to fix my ilvl back up. Let me assure it trucks
not me having 4set on thursday last week

we ran chimaerus just now with 11 leather, no token
and in lfr, 3x shamy, evo , hunter token dropped even though there were only 3
just get lucky smh
i saw 1 single token for leather entire last week and now from lfr and normal
ofc i rolled an insane 8 on it
ye makes me wanna alt f4 tbh
Just do loot council ez pz
not true i haven't washed all week
had lots of showers banked

!Macro
Subtlety Macros:
Here is a macro to make it easier to fit all of your globals into your Shadow Dances:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Secret Technique
Deathstalker likes to use this macro instead:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Shuriken Storm
This can be combines with trinkes and other cooldown use.
/cast Shadow Blades
/use 13
/use 14
/use Tempered Potion
/cast Ancestral Call
Trickster Rogues can combine Coup de Grace and Black Powder in one button:
/cast Coup de Grace
/cast Black Powder
You can find more macros and details in Guides like
WoWhead or
Icy Veins.
Are we sending any any Shadow dances outside of our Shadow blades window or do we just hold those charges?
align with secret technique outside shadow blades
ensure you supercharge it
Gotcha
Dont worry, me with 99 parses today on this fight same dps as brewmaster tank so ye we are strong
easiest to just macro dance+sectech together and cast at full combo points
Ye they made us "in line" with tank
!aa

how much sparks do we get this reset 1 or 2?
18% Haste on guides, when i sim it seems way too much ? i'm i missunderstanding somthing ?
It let's you get an additional gcd in burst
It’s so over 
But ye let's revert unholy nerfs and give sub 3% buff 🤡
Maybe blizzard is preparing us for the tank rogue spec.
where is my 2nd spark...
Catalyst sparks are one every two weeks unless you do and acheivement to get an extra one, 16oo pvp, 2000 Mythic+ rating or defeat mythic raid bosses
until you get your 4 piece, then they drop everywhere (allegedly)
Banger
i have 4 set i want a spark not catalyt charge
what's that fight?
Paladins
is atro enough for rogue not to get sat on paladins 
yesnt
hey folks sorry for asking but its still worth 650-700haste if you have Light Company Guidon trinket?
is there any point in doing t11 delves or just stick to 8s?
doing +11 academy and theyre saying that stuff is living too long even tho we're all doing like 100k dps
we have strong burst aoe so if stuff is living a long time burst isn't as effective
soo all of us padding was bad then
Sub feels good in high keys
cuz i think it was probably 100k dps per but all padding
just blasting
ahh ty
high is relative, seems fine - tier is just insane
yep
wym all of us padding
idk thats what the tank was spouting about before he started throwing
well it also depends on your comp too
sub can do good prio
other specs can carry too
it was pres evoker, sub and balance druid
balance the ultimate aoe pad spec
then everytime the tank random died he said "things are living forever and yall are padding too much" even tho we all had like 100k dps
should i use ss for aoe?
pres evoker
as first generator on dance
that's a healer
oh wait it is?
okay my bad i think i meant devestation
ah
i get it mixed up alot
I have had multiple dumb as bricks tanks so far. I specifically went to my guild tanks and was like I'll wait til you are free to run keys
he kept on magically just dying instantly
what class was tank
Optimizing around latency
yikes
so in other words the guy was complaining that we werent killing everything within 5seconds
since he cant live for long
The problem is yall were only doing 100k, he wanted to see 400k from yall 
the life of pugging
i think he was expecting 1mil
Guys, theres some explanation about the 4p buffs of sub? i should play anything diferent than usual?
I mean realistically you can be bursting a few hundred thousand in aoe
prot pally is kinda bad rn
also, depend on the pull you guys could've cranked harder
my bursts went to like 250k if it was big pull
we were doing 400k on the first pull there
if not it was just 115k kinda
theres a few beefy mobs
Damage is damage. There's some mobs that you need to kill as a priority, but other than that - if you're kicking it's kinda on the tank to live.
is there an WA alternative out?
Idk. If he pulling too much he pulling too much. Outside of maybe scary kicks.
Also could be a healer thing. Hard to say.
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Hi, how much crit %, haste%, mastery% we want as sub rogue? 🙂
How we looking in keys
do we craft second myth embelish item this week ? or do we wait ?
Feel like the profile is pretty good for it and with the buff and 4pc should be blasting
M+ seems to be fairly balanced in terms of throughput.
TBH dungeon performance seems to be the main metric they balanced on over everything else.
This graph kinda tells an interesting story there.
Practically a rectangle.
aug op
If we got 4% instead of 3% we'd be in front. QQ
I request all of y'alls
for my vault tyvm
sitting at around 2k now, pugging is a pain
Hey, are the builds in subtlety faq still up to date or has somethings changed since ?
am i scamming myself or is it worth getting 2pc super fast
like i have a veteran set shoulders and can catalyse 1 more item
catalyst what track
is worth 4p super fast
u can fuck urself over depending on ur vault
best to wait
Do we still need to use guidon 0.5 second before dance?
4 piece is what u want, doesnt matter what track
2p for dps gain is worth
Yes.
no metter track
yeah but 2p worth is crazy worth no
but yeha idk
I mean I'd still probably wait to have atleast champ track.
idk
what content are u doing
when u it 4 p u have unlimited cata
It's relatively rare, TBH.
so you wait for vault
if u cata lets say shoulders, then get tier shoulders in ur vault on tuesday
u fucked urself over
its better to wait unless u particularly need the 7% dps increase for something rn
other than wanting to
my RL hit it monday, yesterday he drope 2 cata in a single dg, it is RNG at some point u will have it faster than 1 cata charge ever 2 weeks
champ gaze or hero tier shoulder?
That's fair.
my current passive trinket
I'd tend towards Gaze personally. Everyone kinda wants it. Might be hard to get.
Plume is close to Gaze in terms of passive trinket value, which u can farm
u need to sim, gaze champ simed 0,8 over the reputation one, not worth for me
hero tier u cannot
Are we crafting dagger and belt this week?
gaze is a 2% buff
i always follow the simc, even when is a bad call... at least u can blame the machine
how do you wanna farm plume
its not even out
if hero shoulders is bigger i take shoulders
u have 2p or 4p?
it will not be higher i think
ye hero shoulders are 0.2% xd
Idk man. You've got like 15 changes a week at tier.
mb ur right for some reason im htinking plume is the feather from wi ndrunner not march @wild vine
^^
Wdym unlimited? They drop but u still have max 8 limit per character no?
vessel kinda annoying imo tho
You get 1 chance at BiS trinkets.
And drop rate on trinkets from M+ is kinda garbage. 1/16 and then you might not even get the drop.
u can hold 8 at one time
there is an addon that atleast plays asound
but ye still gotta locate it
If you delay tier you get it next week for sure with 3 catalysts. If you delay trinket, who knows when the fuck you'll get it.
Particularly as everyone else in your raid gets tier. You'll get tier eventually it's literally guaranteed. Trinkets... Guidon and Gaze literally everyone wants might take two months.
vessel is sim bait, withou WA is dogshit track the souls in a raid or m+
yea i think it sims assuming u get it 100% of the time
for my dh it sims like 6% abouve other trinkets at logs its like 10% downgrade haha
It doesnt anymore
whitch is never
Sim on latest
Idk if its on nightly, but probably
thats good news
Yes but raidbots havent implemented a UI element for it
ah okay, this is good info ty
midnight.vessel_of_tortured_souls_miss_chance=1
If you put that in the bottom expert mode box it will change it
1 = 100%
0 = 0%
I dont do much with expert mode, so to get like 50% i just change it to =.5?
thats not by definition a simbait. it calculates missed charges in and it just shows expected value
its still very much playable to the reduced simvalue
atleast with the addon
wtich one?
the one that plays a sound if an orb spawns
do u have the name? hahaha i will look into it
blizzard disable WA to creat some 300 others addons
stonks
ty vm friend!
guys do i craft the purple farstriders mercy now or is it too late since mythic + started
like do icraft items to farm for the myths so i can craft the myths version ,or do i wait until i get some myths thingies if u know what i mean
leg craft is looking good
we don't want tier legs and mythic legs only drop from raid last boss
i think everyone wants a weapon as first craft
i know but someone told me to wait until i get myths
instead of the 259 one now since its "late"
depends how long it'll take you to get the myth crests
not "late" you will spend more mats to craft it, but nothing to worry about
and on your current weapons
if helps u go 9+ is ok
alright cuz im doing low dmg , idek how i will get the myths u know
is there anything i need to do pre key
any1 know if i can get catalyst both from 1600 pvp and 2k mythic plus?
its a single atchiev 1600pvp OR 2k m+ OR aotc
to 1 single cata charge
But like by next week you'll have 3, so.
did anyone here got a paladin hc 99 log with -> shadowstrike + bp as the guide says on 3 targets ? I only see logs with shuriken tornado + bp ?
ty
yea i need to get 1 piece somehow
didnt even upgrade any item to set yet
LFR drops. Normal drops.
Heroic pretty pug-able
yea, no luck lol ,did lfr already
It'll come. Eventually everyone else will have and will stop rolling. 😂
🙁
I mean I know it feels bad. I'm in same boat.
does acuity of rendorei stack ? like if u have it on both weapons?
Yes.
Yes
yo eleem i gotta question abt what the guide is saying
so when we pop our second dance in blades
technique comes up like a few seconds after (i don’t have tier) should i hold technique for the dance coming up after that so i can supercharge it
or just send it in the second dance in blades anyway
same question applies for once i have tier, would i wanna prioritize supercharging technique in blades or being in dance during blades?
!up
does it matter on which weapon I have the different enchants on ?
sim shows me use ss in dance as first generator for aoe 8 targets
should i use ss in dance for aoe?
Is it worth using 6/6 puzzlebox over heroic flag trinket?
Or is the flag better at all ilvls
but i still see the buff only for 85
with 4p, whats the best time to pull of your second dance in blades? when st has 6 secs cd?
and there is no chance of having supercharged st in the second dance correct
What is this loot
only possible with the hast use trinket
yeah i have it. just doing dummy dmg and feel like if i want to line the last 8 secs of blades with 8s of dance (with my gear) st has 6s cd at that time
but i dont want to waste gcds, so i evis still i can st
can i have one
which then means no supercharged
I think you need 4pc too.
Welp, after doing 6/6N and 5/6H, I finally got something lol
How to track weakness? there is no weakness buff in blizzard cdm
should i craft belt anyway as second craft? (got hero track with socket already)
Craft w/e you have lowest ilvl
any know ca how much dps difference st build is from aoe build on st ?
!up
Don't bother, it's literally always up
wait are people using vers flask now?
I’m using haste atm cos my haste is only like 530 lol
sometimes not
Its up like 99% of the time
And the times when its not up, youre just autoattacking anyway
Theres literally no reason to bother tracking it
should I swap to tier set regardless of substats?
Im not even exaggerating with 99%
i mean the stats on the tier r better
bro, it's not the answer for my question, if i care about tracking, it means that it's not 100% uptime and i want to control this
isn't versatility low prio?
You dont care about tracking
Its literally useless info'
Outside of like an intermission phase or something. It's up.
If you play properly it'll always be up when you need it.
i literally asked if anybody know how to track weakness or not
guidon from 5 delves weekly
the tier piece isn’t the one with vers
I have a tracker for my find weakness, it’s up 99% of the time
what tracker?

lmfao
yo im wondering if the sim doesnt want 700 haste but we do why is the api set to recommend us less than 700 haste, doesnt that fuck up the whole point of simming and u have to start feely crafting ways to get 700 haste in game?
Someone mentioned it had to do someting about margin for error/human error iirc
that's in the faq yea
yeah i know
but that just leads to confusion
why not force the sim to give us 700 haste
when i do pull
but not with raidfinder or normal i guess
And its not only human errors, but also just the server ticks being fucky
Everything is just insanely ass when you need to optimize all the milliseconds instead of all the seconds
do i always go for aa for the supercharged cp's or just for 2?
so far at 700 haste and champ trinket i wasnt able to do it once
probably need a higher one ye
do what
i either go into cds too early so i lose guidon on first dance or have to sit a gcd inside dance waiting for tech
to clip 2nd dance in blades with guidon AND sectech 2nd supercharged AND not sit a gcd
cause i got normal and it doesnt work xd
2s off
like i feel like im forced to lose one
has any of you tried it yet? fuu or eleem?
to see how lenient it is at 700 haste or am i jsut dogwater
any advice for Vanguards ? Should i just spam shuriken BP when they are stack and backstab evis when they do the split ? it feels so bad
Its not lenient at all
Its insanely tight becuase of the bugs
my biggest issue is the tech cooldown bounce
like guidon is 16 so it pushes tech down
Is SnD not even worth casting? Since no guides or anything mention SnD.
BUT if i clip dance on guidon and tech is 2 sec and guidon expires tech bounces back to 3 sec
cos it loses the hasted cooldown reduction
im new to sub xD
so then im forced to either supercharge a normal finisher or sit a global waiting for tech
i geniuenly wonder if its physically doable with the guidon 1 sec update delay
You can use the AA tech to force that too
well "assuming" it ends up being 1 sec
Yo @hazy breach , don’t tell Whispyr, but teach me some sub real quick. How long until SB do I hold SD and SecTec for?
But yes its cursed
this is the WORST
wdym?
yea at this point i legit dont bother clipping 2nd dance with guidon
But over dramatic
Strike twice to proc the AA if its not up already
dont make it complicated this double strike doesnt change your log i got 99 logs without that stuff
idk dude do u recon its physically doable at 700 haste? can u test it on the api with guidon being used 1 sec before cds
Yes its definitely doable
I have 2 98s on normal and a 96 on a heroic boss. Understanding the spec and when to use your abilities vs hold them and understanding the fight is gonna get you more than this one tech will
even with delaying cds 1 sec after guidon?
fuck i might need alot more practice to get it going
Does the 700 haste breakpoint become relevant only with tier? I'm simming all my gear and I have enough pieces with varying stats to have 700 haste with the right choices/gems yet the sim result always picks crit mastery gems and items without haste on them actively avoiding reaching that haste breakpoint 😒
i think? try simming with tier on same ilvl and see if it still tells u to do that
another week of double fist weapon on NK 
the tier situation is so weird. 1 token between 20 people is just annoying.
Do different races sim notable different for sub rogue?
How much worse is a non-supercharged eviscerate vs. a shadowstrike during dance?
Sometimes when it's too tight during my second dance, I just press another strike despite AA already being up to save the supercharged cp for sectec
There's a pin in tc research with the string to put into sim craft if you're curious.
sim only hits 600 haste breakpoint because computer doesn't have lag like humans do

it's telling me to have 570 haste equipped
Shoot seeing 1 tier in a 26 man group for heroic……
At least next week people will have up to 3 charges. So you just need 1 tier slot for a 4 set
for m+ puzzle or guidon?
lol that they have to create a button for a heroic tree to make it functional
@lucid jackal are we back cuh
any addons or sum that will yell at me for poisons missing?
The cost is intended to be affordable, but meaningful.
i guess this is just copy/paste from the assa section as usual but this still is gibberish for sub
is nice though

it is
ds up good?
About god damn time they make this change
if it also had noparry i probably would officially be completely happy/fine playing ds
It still sucks on cleave/aoe
and theres still an opportunity cost with swapping
even if energy is worthless
a move in the right direction
near 0 opportunity cost for sub anyway
if this means they're looking at the hero tree as a whole, W
I just want trickster buffs, the only way I’m playing DS is if it’s like 10% better
(probs not but we'll see)
I'm not playing ds on anything other than pure st anyways
if I play it at all
!sb
imagine a world they make DN cleave to 2 extra targets and make us thanos at 2-3 target cleave
at this point replicating shadows should just cleave eviscerate to another target at 50% or something
just give sub hydra idk
ye
realistically trickster should be the low cleave specialist and ds the mass aoe
#revertnimble
big boom blastin bp's with mass casualty
Oh fuck yeah.
id prefer it if they just let your generators generate combo points instead of it being like 75% sht
then youd have more reason to storm in aoe
shadowcraft needs a sht nerf
keep the energy portion
apex 2 can keep proccing it but remove the double stack gen from the talent
the part about apex 2 i dont like is when your secret clones randomly hit at like .6s and 1.3s so you only get one sht refund
Replicate the clones, since you know it replicates the shadows
and then you miss the AA proc
Do we know if there's still a recraft bug out there?
this would be kinda sweet ngl
Also im just getting more and more convinced they should axe unironically like 50% of our sht procs
Wasting stacks feels so ass
yeppers
And it makes haste useless besides the duration and setech cdr
I've been pro-removing double stacks for a while after seeing how many get wasted
i think its really funny that haste past the cap is like 1/6 or 1/8 as good as it was in tww
and it was already bad in tww
while their stated goal was to make haste good
idk I still think they need to revisit haste for the spec in general and not trying so hard to force it in
rather dislike how it ended up
like this just cannot be a real image
So TLDR with no haste tricket : During SB send second dance to have 1.2+ second dance buff remaining to buff second sectec clones. During BL, you simply supercharge it ?
very much against haste breakpoints as well as reducing sectech cd

in the way they chose to implement it
any addons or sum that will yell at me for poisons missing?
plus ww gets cdr from bok and xb
why do you haste on cd that is always aligned with another cd (which isnt hasted)?
and also are disjointed from your 'big' cd
even increment of 10sec vs odd
unsure how that was overlooked
do you always want to send 2 dance in each shadowblades?
is the ring 2set from nexus point simming correctly?
i feel like it doesnt affect it at all, or is it just really weak
It's like 1% damage. It's not terrible.
ty
it is mostly for st
I mean free damage is free damage.

does anyone know if the myth crest recraft stuff is still bugged or did they fix it?

Apex talent optimization:
- 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
- Is ancient arts up? - :x: No
Use Shadowstrike (even if on full cp).
Hey question in your opener I have read the thing but do you use shadow strike evis then shadow strike again or you do hit evis a second time
@tribal blade 
is crucible of erratic energies just sim bait? or is it actually better than a 263 puzzle box, 263 emberwing feather and 263 light company guidon?
Can we talk about erratic energies?
DO I spend coup de grace procs on big AoE packs? or keep spamming black powder?
wtb cata charge drop
you always spend coup
have done 10 m+/delves and zero so far
are charges timegate?
not after you get 4pc
nope ive gotten 3 already from the 4 set farm
I got a helm token from normal, so I guess it's all down to heroic now..
nice!
Plus two charges, so if I get 1 more piece I'm set
Almost tempted to cata for 2p before heroic pugging but seems bad
been trying to grind hero track and charges but the luck just isn't there rn
ye probably not the best call but I know the feeling lol
What is the next haste breakpoint to fit another GCD is it like 2500 or something?
I get 4-set on reset at least with the +1 charge
I mean might not be terrible terrible.
You get another catalyst next week. So worst case you have 4 PC next week.
Been thinking about that myself.
Yeah
should i spend another 80 myth crests upgrading my 2nd embel?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Wrists and Belt are shit upgrades and embellishments for the most part don’t scale with ilvl.
so no haha
Entirely up to you
where would i find if we craft mythic dagger this week or not?
Craft m dagger asap
next question? 
where's the tier hiding
It’ll drop after all the mail wearers are rolling for tertiary
and definetly not worth crafting 2 yeah?
Hell no
ty
don’t be in a hurry to spend other sparks / mythic crests.
Farm heroic gear this week for 3/6
so you can spend heroic creates
it worth converting heroic legs to tier for 2 pc or just wait until next week to hope for a better piece?
only worth if you’ need 2pc to get you past a boss
so i have a macro where I press SD + SecTec and another macro where I press SD + Shuriken Storm.
Is there a way to enable one or the other in a specific hero spec or do I manually have to move it around?
Turn off use default action bar on deathstalker
then you can adjust that one to as you see fit
Is that in bartender or something or base ui has that?
weapon dps is a rly good scaling factor
so we always want mythic weapon
Recraft still broken though
Can some1 explain to me why we optimise Apex talent the way we do? I know how to do it, but im curious why
i mean i ripped cata charges on vet gear to get 4 pc. once you get 4pc as long as you play the game you have unlimited charges basically once i started running m+ i had heroic 4 pc within 2 hours. and ive only killed one heroic boss
Back with another dumb question for you all. When we're in SD and the Apex talent is proc'd. Do we go Finisher -> Shadowstrike -> finisher - Shadowstrike? Or would it go Finisher -> Finisher -> Shadowstrike -> finisher -> finisher?
I guess I'm confused on if I should be expending all the combo points before rebuilding or just trying to keep the bonus points stored as well. The more I type this out, I'm like 99% sure I'm just reading too much into the guide and it's more or less 'Expend your combos points' before Shadowstriking.
Hey all I have a random question about some dagger ilvl’s vs enchants. I crafted Mercy and it’s at 259 cap. I put the main hand enchant on it and then immediately got hungering victory on normal, which is at 263. Because it was my offhand I put that enchant on it, but I’ve always been told highest ilvl goes in the main hand. However, I don’t want to spend 40,000 gold on enchant swapping.
What’s more viable? The enchants being in the appropriate hand or the ilvl….thanks all!

!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
You want both main hand and off hand enchanted.
You can not enchant if you want, but will cost you a ton of dps.
No he’s saying he don’t want to swap them
Yeah, I don’t want to swap them since they’re different enchants
Oh, handedness of enchants don't matter
Ok so go with ilvl rule…got it
Also likely at this ilvl is optimal for both to be acuity of rendorei
But sim it yourself
I was wondering if both should be the same because that’s going to get frustrating lol
what should we use hero crests on rn
I think arcane mastery better at higher ilvl, and arcane mastery better in AoE.
I was in the same boat and just rocked the „suboptimal“ enchant order till i recrafted to myth
But ST, rendorei usually stronger.
So no tier drops is a universal problem
Well, damn. We’re just gonna have to have a ST enchant weapons and AoE enchant weapons lol
Nah. Pick one. Also the margins slim.
Word. Thanks @stuck arrow!
hello, i have pvp champion shoulders and legs. I got heroic shoulders and champion head in weekly chest. what to take? I do not raiding and spent 2x "change to set" to pvp items already.
3/4 set or champion->heroic shoulders
is vessel worth using or is the fact that you gotta pick stuff up just not worth it?
just got one from a +10 lol
are sub rogues changing to deathstalker with the new changes?
you only play deathstalker on 2 fights
the rest is trickster
what bosses?
you can also choose to just play trickster on those fights and barely lose dps 
vorasius and nexus king
wall boss and the one after
both are very single target heavy
and mark can't rly bug out like on others
ok thx
!up
@vale pine go for 3/4 set from weekly with champion gear or take heroic shoulders and keep 2/4 set
blizz removin buttons
guys, what are best passive trinkets, what would you suggest
straightup returning them as clunky mark stuff
from personal experience
If you have 6+ use your finisher it’s not super deep brotha
What’s actually the best 2 mythic trinkets? Icy veins telling me emberwing feather and solarflame prism?
Thanks
but mostly bis trnks are from raid the guidon and the gaze of alnseerç
Can I get them only doing mythic+?
any advice for the ?? - i feel like i just die too quickly
Perfect thankyou
Do it in a group.
Or buckle down and juggle aggro while playing perfectly and getting lucky.
If HoF was closed when I did it, I'd have just done it in a group. Turns what's otherwise incredibly sketchy in the kinda a walk in the park.
what in the world
Keep your Valeera hot rolling and trade aggro using Shadow Dance. Line up your CDs with add spawns. Use drums on third add. Thats how I did it
Try again with a blue arcano weave.
looks pretty normal
Dont die sub 1% 5 times because the boss decides to hit you twice for 200k each in a span of .04 seconds
belt craft isn't huge
Embellishments are strong.
but belt craft is better than weapon craft?
3% over champ track belt
2nd craft isn't that impactful
this is upgrading either craft
Yes because you don't have the second embellishment.
I currently have crafted belt/weapon, this sim was to upgrade one of them
did you sim with crafted dagger in mainhand
or just offhand
you didn't upgrade the mainhand
o oop
lmao
hold please 
should fix it haha
yeah it did, I was like wtf theres no way this is right
any have sim for full biss items
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
in the sheet you can find the sim
So wait. They brought back marked for death? Lame
yerr
I don't understand why they some just redo the whole tree
ty
Shit is so ass
https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/character/us/stormrage/niannas/ this is my toon im currently at capped 150myth crests left and spent my hero/champ crests for week, should i just send 80more myth crests on my crafted bracers or just hold for next week, seems bit odd to dump into bracers this early
send it 
idk if i hold for vault cuz bracers not a huge gain
theres some things they can keep that are neat like mass
and singular if tuned well
anyone know any clean m+ timer/obj tracker addon
hey guys fast question, does it makes sence to craft this week my mythic weapon and next week again, or is it waste oy mythic crests ?
guys do i need to do 8x bountiful on t11 this week or how much t11?

is everyone just sending myth crests on second embell craft already as well or keeping them?
you only craft one weapon
Can I ask for some advice when do i use ALgathers in opener? is it after ss and before shadowblades?
after strike before blades
How simple is sub to learn? I’m committing to a rogue as my 1st alt
Can you press 2 buttons a lot?
You know I just might be able to
Then youre golden
!tricks
pretty neat to see deathstalker getting a "redirect 2.0" 
Original Mfd was redirect 2.0, this is like 3.0 now 🤣
Pretty sure shitty mfd is the signal to give up hope
I mean I wouldn't play ds in any scenario where I'm switching targets lol
wait MFD is coming back? like the actual ability?
They're really trying to piecemeal ds to be acceptable when it should've just gotten aborted
for deathstalker to move mark
Yes. The actual ability.
its fucked up bastard inbred child
yeah, it really just needs to be taken back to the drawing board
instead of getting frankensteined
i legit thought the guy who told me was fucking with me at first
Mfd with an energy cost

i can get set items in the vault only from the raid section right?
im still not 100% convinced yall arent fucking w me (obv kidding)
wait didn't see you said only
@swift tinsel can u check dms pls
you can get them in any slot
never trust a shaman
