we're up so giga

alpine wraith
#

same with cloak

#

any cloak works

keen dome
#

Ye

warm marlin
#

bracers are haste crit as well

alpine wraith
#

belt is sus sadly

keen dome
#

I need a charge 'cos I got a nice cloak today from M+

alpine wraith
#

but we will eventually craft there

keen dome
#

Belt feels like a craft slot for embellishment

#

get the comfy belt to hold up our damage

alpine wraith
#

i crafted pants because they are way better than belt

#

but eventually that will change

icy mulch
#

what are you guys crafting next week

alpine wraith
#

depends

lilac stag
#

I finally got 4pc last light. dead

chrome palm
#

I might be making pants ngl

#

Call me crazy

keen dome
#

A ring maybe? I legit don't know. I've not even made a belt yet.

warm marlin
#

are yall actually sending myth crests on crafts

alpine wraith
#

pants is a good craft or ring

warm marlin
#

other than dagg

chrome palm
#

Myth pants are kinda nice no?

keen dome
#

I will be but only after vault but I don't raid Mythic yet so the crests aren't as useful for me.

alpine wraith
#

depends i dont get many mythic items

chrome palm
#

Yeah lemme get the alleria pants real quick

keen dome
#

haha

alpine wraith
#

yea i dont think i kill alleria in like 1 or 2 weeks more

warm marlin
lilac stag
warm marlin
#

very sad!

warm marlin
#

we havent hit a damage check yet

icy mulch
tribal blade
#

not as sad as me ousting you from the group today

chrome palm
#

Not keen to put myth into that

keen dome
#

I'm still shocked I was 4th highest dps on my heroic Crown kill. But I think that's a statement on the quality of pugs more than anything else.

alpine wraith
#

yea my pvp engi wrist

icy mulch
#

are we getting a free heroic craft like previous tiers or was it not on beta?

alpine wraith
#

is like 100 dps ahea dof any 266

#

so yea

warm marlin
keen dome
warm marlin
#

i am prob not gonna craft anything

tribal blade
#

not amazing, but playable

keen dome
#

Since it's raw crests now.

chrome palm
#

Did you drop a dagger?

keen dome
#

But they COULD give us 80 uncapped hero crests

icy mulch
#

oh true

warm marlin
#

no

keen dome
warm marlin
#

im sandbagging for vault/reclear

chrome palm
#

Ah

tribal blade
#

sub would probably be going turbo mode on crown if we still had old nimble

warm marlin
#

hence why im playing outlaw on dragons for now since i did get myth fist weapon

#

so its giga sandbag value

keen dome
#

Man if we still had old nimble we'd be the best dps in the game on so many fights imo

chrome palm
#

I see

keen dome
#

IMagine old nimble on jellyfish fight in Magisters

warm marlin
#

we bridge to getting dagger by using the outlaw weapon 🧠

tribal blade
#

that too

#

and paladins

keen dome
#

And dragons in the final cycle

warm marlin
#

it also sims like 10k higher on 2 target

#

so that helps

lilac stag
#

Sorry the real dagger spec got buff

keen dome
#

Survival. SURVIVAL!!!!

Hunter has a raid buff that forces you to class stack on any council boss forever until the end of time garf

World of Warcraft Forums

The current state of rogue in raid is so down horrendous the race to world first teams are benching all of them. And yet we continue to receive either tuning that does almost nothing or are ignored entirely. Sub rogue went into the tier getting its aoe and cleave nerfed, the latter being confusing because rogue was already struggling on cleave....

#

be the change you wish to see in the world

#

like this post

#

view it

#

empathize with ti

#

feel it

keen dome
#

I should make a post about posion toggle and raid buff (stolen idea).

tribal blade
#

the arms warr in my guild spammed a forum post he made in the arms channel and that probably helped them get changes

alpine wraith
#

time to get the pastas ready NA people

tribal blade
#

lol

keen dome
#

``` lol that's a good point
#

and kinda funny

#

Why don't we have an Antitoxin

tribal blade
#

i would absolutely lose my mind out of joy if blizz actually addressed all this

warm marlin
#

rogue should have poison dispel and atro should be reverse druid buff

warm marlin
#

it would still be worse than druid by virtue of being a debuff

chrome palm
#

Crimson vial should have a poison dispel on it obviously

restive stream
#

what my second craft should be?

tribal blade
warm marlin
#

and by being dr

lilac stag
warm marlin
chrome palm
#

I would also like the idea of shiv being concentrated atro for 10s

tribal blade
#

he got 0 upvotes

#

get wrecked

#

idiot

keen dome
warm marlin
#

ye as a scuffed aura mastery

#

is a good idea

warm marlin
#

instead of druid's 3% damage 1.5%dr

keen dome
#

Oh, yeah

#

That's a fantastic idea

lilac stag
keen dome
#

Putting that idea right next to Fim's 3% crit. Either of those would be stellar

lilac stag
#

+crit dmg & reduced crit dmg taken.

warm marlin
#

poison dispel (targetable throw a vial at someone) + atro gets 1.5% damage + concentrated atro with shiv as a group dr like aura mastery + aoe kidney would make it a strong util class

chrome palm
#

DK not taken to last boss -> raids now redesigned to accommodate dk specific mechanic
Hunter not taken to last boss -> hunters mark reworked into being one of the strongest raid buffs
Rogue not taken to last boss -> ???

naive hemlock
#

imagine how the community would react if you would see 5 rogues like 5 mm hunters

#

the outrage

#

remember kj anyone

chrome palm
#

I am still losing my mind that cloak doesn’t work on half the mechanics in keys

alpine wraith
#

i actually dont remember last boss we had more than 3 rogues

lilac stag
#

Bfa

alpine wraith
#

was it really kj?

chrome palm
#

This fact about cloak in this rotation is driving me absolutely insane

alpine wraith
#

zul was not really a last boss but i guess it works yea

lilac stag
#

Shuriken combo 5 rogue stack

#

Vdh getting adds

naive hemlock
#

ah yes sub getting gutted like guts in beserk because of zul

#

a rogue doing some dmg? no it cant be

naive hemlock
#

moonking being low on dmg , lets make at least 10 clickbait videos

lilac stag
#

Just shut the discord down at this point.

keen dome
#

Nooooo way

lilac stag
#

We’re budget Ret’s anyways

Nah we're cooler than them

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.

the real question is , to fix a problem you must know it is a problem

#

does blizz know rogue needs tuning now

chrome palm
warm marlin
chrome palm
#

They did it

meager coyote
lilac stag
keen dome
#

Haha

naive hemlock
#

idk about rework but def needs tuning

lilac stag
#

Is that wrong?

short radish
#

damage does not fix us

#

or it is a bandaid fix

warm marlin
short radish
#

that will maybe last a season (it wont)

meager coyote
warm marlin
#

would suck to decimate it in one move

short radish
#

i've never wanted my class to be deleted more than this tier

naive hemlock
#

not just sub

#

all specs

meager coyote
#

idk how they looked at the outlaw haste scaling mechanic feedback and went "yep give it to sub as well" crazy it needs to be replaced for both specs

lilac stag
#

you know what sucks? An entire class to be dog shit to the point it’s not played at all

warm marlin
#

i can suffer the playstyle changes i just want my niches back

keen dome
#

Damage tuning is the worst thing Blizz could do to 'fix' this because it doesn't fix anything. We'll repeat this again and again. It has to be a substanial shift like Ryldd or Fim's raid buff ideas and utility.

#

That's how you solve this longer term by giving us actual utiltiy and group benefit.

warm marlin
#

being useless sucks

warm marlin
#

being tuning agnostic due to fundamental spec design was so nice

keen dome
#

Fim's idea was a +3% crit raid buff, and Ryldd's is the reverse mark of the wild on atro (So 3% DR 1.5% damage) as a buff. Both would go so, so far in fixing us and giving us a place and group benefit.

naive hemlock
#

"just slap them a 3% that will do "

#

whatever

lilac stag
#

We went from coping DS world get fixed to be usable in RWF, to being non-existent. OMEGAKEKW

keen dome
#

Because damage and being good in raid is so flexible. We were very good last season because the fights were so good fo rus. Now we're bad because the fights are very bad for how Sub (and arguably rogue) is designed. But if you add in an additional raid buff we're brought regardless because we bring group benefit. Which we currently don't. Atro is very good, but it isn't enough on it's own.

tribal blade
#

it's so bad my RL was messing with me saying he was gonna sit me

#

luckily i'm not in a super competitive guild

hazy walrus
#

hey guys thinking of swapping from outlaw to sub, am I making a good choice and is the rotation complext 1-10?

lilac stag
#

With our roster size, and how much range we have available, I’m assuming I’m sat when we actually start mythic.

hazy walrus
fading wedge
lilac stag
tribal blade
#

just took this RWF for rogue to be completely sat for the entire community to actually start noticing

#

good thing is people are noticing now

lilac stag
#

@hazy walrus large tank pull size favors sub. Outlaw just consistently goes and is better at cleave. Assa has more priority.

tall girder
#

bout to level a devourer dh

#

its so over

fading wedge

hollow spear
#

The upcoming raid will change everything

#

Two rogues at least

keen dome
#

sixteen rogues

tribal blade
hollow spear
#

I was being a tad facetious

lilac stag
fiery fog
hollow spear
#

True, 19 rogues dance and one doesn't

#

5head

tribal blade
hollow spear
#

But I have the hope that there will be one

tribal blade
#

i actually kind of hope there isn't

#

so the issue is still there

#

and blizz is more likely to address it

hollow spear
#

The top 3 will probably be so overgeared that it doesn't even matter what they bring

tribal blade
#

instead of "rogue on last boss, everything is fine"

fading wedge
#

maybe, we should close our discord, working for Ret rofl xD

tribal blade
#

max was saying normally they would have like 8 bosses worth of gear

#

and this time it's gonna be something like 100 bosses

hollow spear
#

If you unironically think that closing their discord helped I don't know what to tell you

tribal blade
#

of myth track gear

keen dome
tribal blade
hollow spear
tribal blade
#

they have to

#

and then massive nerfs after

hollow spear
#

Idk if they can

#

Tuning around 280 ilvl

#

That'd be so on the nose

tribal blade
#

this is actually kinda exciting

#

NOBODY knows what's gonna happen

keen dome
#

I'm very curious about how it'll be on heroic too

#

It's gonna be wild

fiery fog
tribal blade
lilac stag
#

At this point I don’t want to see a rogue on last 2

tribal blade
#

let this be a rogueless tier

#

then we get memed on

#

then blizz maybe does something

lilac stag
#

Let it be an exclamation point

tribal blade
#

i agree

short radish
#

how much do we have to pay max to not put any rogues in

#

can we crowd fund this?

lilac stag
#

Emergency tuning monday. 3% aura

tidal marsh
tribal blade
#

i think he'll inevitably talk about it if it happens

#

after the race is over

fading wedge
#

Emergency tuning

#

\o/

tribal blade
#

something along the lines of "damn rogues need something, because there was absolutely no reason to bring them this last race"

jaunty heath
#

Prophet are you dooming again

tribal blade
#

for good reason i think

lilac stag
#

I’d fucking break if I put all that work in since launch to literally not see a single fight

jaunty heath
#

But the problem is bigger than rogue, they literary play no melee beside grip and paladin aura

tribal blade
#

that's a good point

jaunty heath
#

We dont play melee either

#

We have six total in my guild

#

And we play 3 and all ranged

tribal blade
#

my guild is a mid range CE guild

short radish
#

whenever it's a melee tier, there's always a healthy mix of ranged

tribal blade
#

not race to world last type

short radish
#

wheneveer its a ranged tiere, theres never any fucking melee

tribal blade
#

but mid

#

so my RL actually wants atrophic

jaunty heath
#

We are top 200 guild

hollow spear
#

I'm not afraid of the bench

tribal blade
#

atrophic is good in a mid guild

hollow spear
#

Paladins maybe

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

we got people gray/green parsing heroic

jaunty heath
#

I prep 7 chars this season, I never put so much work and time in pre season and here im

tribal blade
#

so we need all the help we can get

jaunty heath
#

Just doing heroic

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

happy to see you got keys in though

#

tuning on 10s atm is good

#

very chill

lilac stag
#

I need to get more in tonight when I get home

tribal blade
#

very demure

jaunty heath
#

Keys are chill I like it

lilac stag
#

Hopefully not too tired

tribal blade
#

although the kick situation seems exactly the same as before

#

i think blizz lied

#

when they said they wanted to tone down kicks

jaunty heath
#

I really like that 10s are fairly easy and accessible.

tribal blade
#

yeah it's good

short radish
#

but then some packs

#

they didnt

lilac stag
#

I was having panic attacks with no kicks available in seat lol

tribal blade
jaunty heath
#

Kick situation is good aswell, it force you to pull less in unorganised groups. Push group can still pull whole room into boss

tribal blade
#

but yeah

#

some are just turbo aids

short radish
#

there's also a lot less casters

#

pit is a good example

#

there's like 1 maybe 2 casters

tribal blade
#

pit is good yeah

#

nexus point is weird

#

AA ofc is bad in some parts

jaunty heath
#

I was doing couple weekly keys with some of our guild tittle players and they can still pull everything they can and control the pack

lilac stag
#

AA seemed mostly fine, we didn’t have enough for all the books

tribal blade
#

yeah a lot of kicks in that pull

vagrant fulcrum
#

can we just do away with raid buffs

jaunty heath
#

Tbh AA is the hardest pug dungoen isn't it

tribal blade
vagrant fulcrum
#

so they can balance the game without mark / windfury just massively inflating certain classes

tribal blade
#

the last boss is crazy hard with bad players in AA

#

because you spawn so many of the things that shoot orbs

#

from people getting hit

vagrant fulcrum
#

because of rwf

vagrant fulcrum
#

they're still stacking like it was legion

#

all it does is just HEAVILY limit raid spots for any melee not bringing a real raidbuff

jaunty heath
#

I basically finish gear farm in 50 keys, which is pretty cool. I remember it took me once 40 runs of halls for that trinket back in df 😄

vagrant fulcrum
#

Im frequently told "justifying a melee spot is difficult, you can't get ranged mechanics"

#

and with like 14 spots or w/e locked in

#

why would you bring someone on melee when ranged do better dps, have better target swapping AND do mechanics better

jaunty heath
#

Bring player not the class is getting harder better your guild is.

tribal blade
#

this happened to me today, the ret got the ring i needed for the 2 set

vagrant fulcrum
tribal blade
vagrant fulcrum
#

for me the ring set vs same ilvl non rings was like 0.2%ish

tribal blade
#

he took it

vagrant fulcrum
#

the ret

#

kekw

tribal blade
#

bounced out of the group

#

but nah i didnt sim it

#

it's just free dmg

keen dome
#

so rude

vagrant fulcrum
#

idk why they don't take auto-wings

#

if they cant remember to press their 1 cd

tribal blade
#

the reason question is

jaunty heath
#

I was doing some key with guild dk and he said im first one to gap him, i was like 150k+ in pit when he was like 130

tribal blade
#

if you don't realize you weren't pressing your main cd the entire key

#

how do you realize it the moment the key is over

#

i don't understand

vagrant fulcrum
tribal blade
#

so i just don't get it

jaunty heath
#

Tbh im playing ret now too, and I was surprised they pressing wings manually again

short radish
#

@steel wyvern

#

😎

jaunty heath
#

They are going backwarda

tribal blade
#

and then watching this certified genius walk away with the ring i needed

#

after carrying his ass

dont look at boss damage

made me so angry

can u tell joel i say hi

tepid trellis
# short radish i dunno, what ar ethey doing?

just kinda looks like your guildies didn't actually look at what their classes need to do on that fight, MM, Fury, Devourer, should be able to just blow them sky high, but i guess it worked out in your favor. nice job

short radish
jaunty heath
#

Withnout gudion we are not getting second sectexh into blades withnout lust ?

short radish
#

idk no one was doing what thety should have been doing

short radish
#

and delaying 2nd dance

#

so i can sectech with 2nd combo points

fiery fog
short radish
#

it requires some weird half second delays

tepid trellis
#

even without guidon

#

you woul still delay it

fiery fog
#

you could send a sectec with like 1 second of blades left

#

it barely fits if you have like 700 haste

tepid trellis
#

and hey fim

#

atleast you get to be in the raid!

short radish
#

after vorasius "oh fimb pumps, okay guess he's in for saladbar"

hollow spear
#

I'm convinced I'm losing dps by using guidon dead

short radish

after saladbar "i guess we get fimb in for chimerus since he pumps"

can u level my devourer dh for me

#

Still not sure how i want to play my non bl blades

Only with bl everything lineup nice

i want to P*sh key but no invite on rogue

jaunty heath
#

Same

#

We are not cool kids

onyx flame
#

i just have a note "10k gold to leader if i am not top dps" they get baited so easy

fiery fog
#

because by dancing without a sectec you need to use a third dance after blades for the sectec supercharge and then desync your charges
what happens is you wont have 2 dances for upcoming blades

tall girder
fiery fog
#

but rogue doesnt bring any buffs for MY damage!

onyx flame

and its just padding

so much pad lmao

but theres a lot of trash

I think we will get another aoe nerf, people complain about rogue gapping them in 10s overall

as is tradition

Everyone hates rogues

it does feel that way lol

for sure

like actually god tier class

but it's been 20 years

are we sure about the shadow damage neck from crown being bis? the two socket neck sims way better for me

vale pine
tribal blade
#

i think a lot of newer players and rogues don't realize how incredibly strong stealth was in the game back then

vale pine
#

subtlety did get nerfed because it seemed to be good in m0

keen steppe
#

m0 the content that matters :>

vale pine
#

and its still decent/good in keys, key levels are not that extreme still

#

but the nerf targeted raid specifically

#

its very easy to see how a big part of the raid is cleave

tardy hornet
#

why does china play sub in m+ anybody knows ? 🙂

vale pine
#

by targeting cleave/aoe

#

you directly nerf a spec

tribal blade
vale pine
#

the dev team decided subtlety needed a substential nerf to cleave

tribal blade
vale pine
#

and hasn't walked back on this decision, so it seems they agree with the nerf still

tribal blade
#

you'll see chinese players doing things that are blatantly wrong

#

but still topping

tardy hornet
tribal blade
#

and then a lot of chinese players copy it

tribal blade
#

and i'm in the region technically

#

i live in hong kong

tepid trellis
#

i have too much free time now that im not in

vale pine
#

means this is the desired "competitive" cleave damage we are suposed to do

its fine i get to do 1st boss mythic and chimaerus

mythic splits batchest

its interessting

#

because we had discussions in this channel on why meta chasing exists

and my central point was that the "op" won't get nerfed

tribal blade
#

who knows why blizz lets some things stay OP

tepid trellis
#

tbf they just need to fix the "bug"

tribal blade
#

and quickly nerf others

short radish
#

more and more I feel justified in my theory of "blizzard devs hate rogue"

eager yoke
#

hey i've a question. i been watching some raid boss kill VODS, and they always happen to have 2 supercharged combo points before boss pull. but everytime i try to use shadow dance before boss is pulled to get the 2 combo points from supercharged talent it does not seem to work. any idea?

warm marlin
# tribal blade and quickly nerf others

it's very typical, they can nerf before race starts so the m0 heroic week specs get owned (outlaw, fury, sub, etc.), race starts and omg casters are op again! but you can't nerf anymore because it would int race a bit

#

it is very weird that they didn't buff more aggressively this week though

vale pine
#

rogue just seems to be handled like its one spec

#

not 3

warm marlin
#

revert nimble + sectec charges pls 🙂

vale pine
#

so most of the time, all specs are good

#

or all suck

#

which of the 2 happens depends on the tier

short radish
#

are there any other classes that are treated like that though?

vale pine
#

no

#

warlocks and mages are always good

hunter is the closest, but they got a lot of love lately

#

druid does not fall into the same category

#

of basically only filling one role

tidal solstice
#

ah pures

viral wharf
#

Sub get boring so fast now. Nothing to really track anymore

tidal solstice
#

yeah rogues only melee pure dps and shouldnt really be below the ranged pures

short radish
#

hate is perhaps a strong word

#

dont care is more accurate

tidal solstice
#

they dont hate, they dont feel at all. there is zero passion for rogue

short radish
#

we had a good time from DF s3 till end of TWW

tidal solstice
#

the only rogue love weve seen for a while is valeera 😄

eager yoke
#

ill try on default UI. can i try it in open world? or does it have to be in raid with boss reset?

river coral
#

can we go in both groups on mythic chimaerus like heroic?

short radish
#

like heroic?

river coral
#

yeh you soak first and cloak second, is there a reason not to do it on mythic?

vocal narwhal
#

anyone did tormented rise as sub here?
Struggle with valera taking aggro even tho i have her as healer

cosmic dust
#

If my dance/blades effect is about to expire, but damage from something like coup or sectec in the final instance doesn't "hit" until after it expires, is the damage that comes after the effect expires still amplified?

#

i hope this is understandable XD

tribal blade
#

press dance and you'll instantly lose all aggro and they'll start smacking her

vocal narwhal
#

Hmmmm, how would i do this then x(

vagrant sinew
#

you sit on a dance charge almost whole encounter and toggle aggro on valeera when you run out of heal orbs / evasion on cd

#

theres alot of rng to it well I depending how geared you are

vocal narwhal
#

Damn, im kinda new to the class but isnt that like alot of damage loss

#

im 265

vagrant sinew
#

and on the intermission you can just tricks her

steep raven
#

Keep CDs for each intermission

vagrant sinew
#

but if you keep her tricksed whole fight shell die alot it can work but I found it better if I didnt do it

tribal blade
#

i ended up stalling going into intermissions to get blades back

vocal narwhal
#

ill do my best! Thanks boys and girls!

i find this addon and ask claude to help me

jaunty heath

There still could be tunning tommorow

vale pine

there could be yes

jaunty heath
#

Probably not

brisk onyx
#

This addon can provide some enhancements to the sepll alert (but lacks rogue )

And there is cope rogue is decent in new raid

#

I was blasting first boss on ptr

There were some natty line up with adds

# tribal blade just storm and BP

im not quite sure i understand why we press storm here then instead of backstab, its just cuase its a 100% crit so its on average more damage?

open depot
#

This is why groups disband

#

Hi all, Should i be entering Shadow Dance with Max Combo Points?

open depot
tribal blade
leaden prairie
#

i know

tribal blade
#

using dance+storm macro is instant

leaden prairie
#

but dance backstab is also instant

#

isntit

tribal blade
#

storm does more dmg in dance than backstab

#

and yeah has silent storm buff too

#

100% crit

#

pretty sure +100% dmg on storm in dance but i can't find the spell anymore

brisk onyx
#

ye storm has lv2 that cause 100% more damage during dance

steep raven
#

@leaden prairie Not sure, but with crit and Clear the witnesses it might simply do more dam

leaden prairie
tribal blade
#

because the whole strike no matter how many targets thing was cooking people's brains in TWW

leaden prairie

is it a talent

fossil forge
#

Ts was peak

leaden prairie
#

i cant find it

tribal blade
#

i'm not in the game right now

brisk onyx
#

you change to other specs and watch the sub's spell book

rapid barn
#

guys should I use coup of grace on cooldown or wait till i'm in shadow dance??

tribal blade
#

i can't remember where the spell is now

brisk onyx
#

storm has a lv2 spell

tribal blade
#

ah that must be it

leaden prairie
#

ok i see

#

when i press dance storm damage goes up

#

but its not written anywhere or what

tribal blade
#

so backstab in dance now is turbo banned

leaden prairie
tribal blade
#

weird it doesn't show in game tooltip

alpine wraith
#

it is a hidden thing yea

#

like the WoD talents

tribal blade
#

that seems like an oversight

alpine wraith
#

evis got a rank 2 that increased dmg by 50%

brisk onyx

by

#

not writting it anywhere

tribal blade
#

TRUE lol

leaden prairie
tribal blade
#

can't be sub without things being hidden/unintuitive

leaden prairie

then storm tooltip goes up

#

but i mean

#

why is it not written anywehre

xd

this is silly

brisk onyx

There's no lvl2 talent for storm?
My storm damage changes as much as backstab

#

In trickster

brisk onyx
#

rogue is lack of care, this is just the tip of the iceberg garf

steep raven
#

wtf, never noticed the spelling mistake :D

leaden prairie
steep raven
#

How is this still in-game

leaden prairie
#

well idk the damage dont exactly line up i guess

#

but it doesnt seem to be a 100% increase in dance

#

more like 15%

#

anyway ty guys

#

shit spec you play here

brisk onyx
#

i mean

#

it is

steep raven
#

in and out of stealth on trickster, if it gave 100% more dmg, it would be way higher

brisk onyx
#

xd

leaden prairie
#

where did you find that tho

#

also the tooltip damage is not x2 in stealth so

brisk onyx
#

i told, first you cange to other specs and watch sub's spell book xd

leaden prairie
#

xd

brisk onyx
#

you cant see it when you are a subOMEGAKEKW

#

idk why

leaden prairie
#

ok but

#

are you sure it works tho

#

the tooltiup clearly doesnt go up by 100%

#

maybe the damage does

#

idk

#

im back to outlaw now

brisk onyx
#

idk maybe

#

but i am a ds hater

leaden prairie
#

i have to play ds

#

on salbazar

it seems relatively easy

im sure i can first time it

i made the macro so

#

its over

#

all minmaxes achieved

#

why do you have to play ds

leaden prairie

because its better st

#

and i will not swap to orbs

alpine wraith

you can also do it the other way the known unseen blade

leaden prairie
#

so why not

alpine wraith
#

secret tech storm

#

tbh didnt think about the DN angle

tribal blade
#

just play trickster like a chad

#

all the homies hate DS

leaden prairie
#

its 3% less st

#

and in pure st why would i care

#

legit same

Yo guys! I constantly get higher sims with less than 600-700 haste and higher sims with around 550 haste - is this a bug and should i just strive to go get 18% haste?

steep raven
#

Dam, this question asked a lot. Prob should make a command for it

brisk onyx
#

This is a bit complicated to explain, but I think you can trust the recommendation of 650-700

wicked joltBOT
#

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

open swan

on the opener; cds dance sec tec / shadow strike / evis 100% coz ullhave the 4 superchated cps?

steep raven
#

Just make sure to have AA up for any supercharged finisher

tribal blade
#

most people's sims right now want more crit

#

because a lot of people have hard stacked haste+mast

what if aa doesnt proc for couple secs too long, do i just send dance,sq?

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).

like you should cast ss on the boss from stealth. you don't need to ss to the boss since ss will teleport you. also don't open with ss unless you are playing DS

A question about haste on use optimization with 4set - macroing it was said to not be advised, but it seems to work when hitting the dummy? Also, do sims take into account this optimization because my lfr 250 trinket loses out against 2x 263 random proc trinkets which seems unlikely?

dusky yacht
#

So I wanna be using my cooldowns at the same time and it gives me this macro, so I wait for full combopoints then use Shadowdance, Shadowblades and secret technique all in one macro? And I showtooltip secret technique because otherwise I don't want to use dance?

red flame
#

I remember reading it here but idr exactly how

red flame
#

SBlades + Trinket + Pot is one macro
SDance + SecTec is one macro

At least for Trick

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.

dusky yacht
#

This is not what is recommended in the wowhead guide

red flame
#

Also if you have Puzzle Box you need to send that before SBlades macro

#

& 2min trinks get used like 3min trinks

dusky yacht
#

Okay so I keep shadow blades seperate and include potion for raids/high keys

#

I have puzzle box and the protocol one

So I have to do puzzle seperate anyway

#

Single target 5 min

#

ST 5 min

#

I think I'm making small mistakes cause the "free full combopoints" is so weird when you're coming from assas

#

Also haven't changed weapon enchants etc yet so that's prolly why my dps is lower than expected

#

I'm kinda already convinced this spec is way better than assas tho

#

Sure you're cooldown dependent but nowhere near as bad as assas

#

I'm only done dancing and feels like I'm already preparing to dance again
