depends on how much ilvl and possibly even stats
Though if i cared enough about keys i wouldnt be playing rogue

and play something actually good
like you wouldnt equip a high vers neck regardless
i've heard others do Patchwerk with 5boss targets for M+ instead of Slice
well jewelry is an outlier
but idk..so i ask
m+ might have the tech of running only 200 haste
guys for mythic, finality or weaponmaster?
it isnt
Hunters do something different, for us it really doesn’t matter. Especially this season rework where most damage your doing has a two button rotation
in pugs youd want haste to be somewhat near st values (~600 maybe) id say from feelcrafting
since pugs usually dont pull big enough
do u guys play with the first dance on m+?
Yeah all depends on what the tank does, either gungho or 3 mob packs lol
all i want is a focus indicator like in fellowship where you can see who has that target in focus and if their kick is ready and how much cd it has
would make some keys so much easier
Well we had that with WAs
That might be the best small innovation I saw in fellowship
I like how the last boss in MS is the same as that skeleton boss in harbor too
legit 10/10 feature
There’s an add on for kicks.
For 12s and under though, I just cheap shot, blind, kick and kidney any important mob because I don’t trust anyone to do things correctly
only thing he doesnt revive xd
fellowship is actually such a good game if you are playing in a group
but big problems with solo playing
It's just M+ simulator, even down to needing a full group
The guy who pulled generating a decent chunk of threat is another
but seeing group kicks would be nice
Make face pulling matter in 2026
So a tank can gather things while on mount without losing aggro because 1 rejuv tick pulled aggro
Idk if my tank last night was just an opp, but I started to cast my puzzle box after the bubble popped in a seat last night and got agro from that first pack lol
I could have sworn he ran through them
HE IS OPENING A BOX, DESTROY HIM
pray for your guardian druids on pull
well it doesnt matter if he ran through them
sit on hands for 5 sec
Literally
I didn't think opening the box generated threat, but I learned then lol. At least I didn't miss lust.
having burst prepped as ddh and having to wait for the bear to get aggro 
"Atleast i didnt miss lust" 
slow lust is my new 13th reason
opener ruined, in shambles even, but at least I go fast
Box is worth like 5x the value of lust
I stg
Ah
They literally just walked over and punched me in the face
Funnily enough, unless it's changed in the last decade. Generating any resource gives a small amount of threat. Including energy
But yeah lust is actually worse this expac than the last one 
I don't know if it's 100% true yet, but for some reason they (fixed)broke getting tricks on the tank by hitting a critter too
Is Crucible of Erratic energies simming really well for yall? I've got Heart, Prism, and Vestige at the same ilvl or slightly above.
I mean lust gets you a second secret technique and more auto attack damage
is the cp waste that bad compared to the attack speed gain
In tww you atleast got more combo points and rupture damage
Cant spend sht stacks fast enough now with the shadowcraft change
Yes its better than practically everything on hero besides gaze and plume
Was a point in DF where in AoE you literally only got autoattack damage from BL in AoE
And AA was very poor
yes it is very good
well you would always get a tiny bit of rupture dmg
haste breakpoints and sectech cdr friction just bc they wanted to force us to want haste
but in SL you only got Auto attack dmg on mass AoE
and massive sht overcapping
since we did not rupture on AoE in SL
Maybe was SL yeah Stealthi. Expansions bleed together :p
13.1.5 they finally fix it trust
Any tips for a fellow stabber on dragons boss? We start prog tonight
Based on previous tiers when a class was not in for most rwf bosses blizzard went in and quite heavy handedly forced them in with a stronger raid buff
So i would not be surprised if that happened to us now
Oh man I can't wait to see what gets cooked up for that bandaid
Numbing goes from -18% autoattack damage to -20
We used to have automatic application of expose armor as a raid buff at some point right
iirc
Shaman wasnt in > Skyfury
DK wasnt in > Now you need grips on every single endboss
Hunter wasnt in > Hunters mark is now perma 3% instead of only 5% above 80%
rogue wasnt in > no changes
if that happens I will laugh so hard it might actually kill me
Exile was about to cry after getting sat 🙁
I don't blame him
yeah right
time for blizzard to add a talent that converts haste % into bonus mastery or crit dmg bonus
Improved Expose Armor returning in 12.0.5 but tracking the buff in cdm and nameplates will be broken have fun!!
this raid sucks for rwf rogue
so we actually get something from lust
Realz explicitly said thats lazy and they dont want to do that when asked about it back in the day
So im not expecting anything
I mean we are the ball of bandaids spec so lazy would fit
When do we shut down the discord 
we don't
protest in silvermoon
Gg
We post more
shutting down a discord does nothing
we're gonna storm the royal exchange
ret delusion makes them think it did
We will rogue tank spec and poison toggle into existance
it literally didn't do anything but make everyone think they were stupid
We are rogues… everyone already thinks we are stupid
just stop with the tank
They can’t get 3 dps specs right. We don’t need another fuck up
They think we are stupid because we are, otherwise we wouldn't still be playing rogue
we're not stupid, we're insane
doing the same thing over again expecting different results
Its alright, next boss we will be needed for sure. Boss in invulnerable except for 8 second windows every 20 seconds or so
meanwhile rets conflating correlation with causation is literal stupidity
What you mean - liquid used a rogue on 20 pulls. 👀
A lot of people have this problem though
too many
Having cloak on that boss is really strong
But unfortunately you need to be able to outburst the guardian druid on the egg phase


wish they brought back flagellation so i can use it on myself irl
wdym we are the burst spec 
Waiting for another 3% Tuesday
This one will do it trust
hey siri play flatline by periphery
im going to double my 3% and give it to the next guy
@warm marlin this aged well
its gonna go to assa 😂
yep
Do you guys have alts? If so, which other class could play similar to sub rogue?
lol they swapped him out? gg
it is once again, over
It's not over until the chandalier dies
Hopium gone
i dm'd him already to do a new tweet
my hope and optimism is gone
I've got like 5 rogues at various levels.
Used to need to reroll to change guilds. 😂
make him file an official retraction and apology video
I’m not sure what’s funnier. Guys vault and the state of rogue, or just the state or rwf memeing on exile and perfecto
Midnight Falls is gonna be the 16 rogue boss.
what did they swap him for? ww?
goop
3rd aug
inb4 Guy's "I pledge to do better" video
another Aug
lol 3 aug wtf
aug hunter merchants
5th mm hunter
Somebody that can outburst the guardian druid
Hunter doing all that dmg while not doing any dps during turtle
It's all G - Exile will be in for Lura for sure. He already has like 1000 pulls on memory game.
im cool with aug cranking but how did we lose our burst after last tier 🤦♂️
ive seen enough ill flag aand rupture again
bc it was too complicated to do apparently
They gave it to guardian druid
Butchered cleave damage while every fight is cleave
and last tier we had boss amps that mattered
Forgot that one
Then multiple straight aura nerfs in ptr.
sub rogue bursty dmg profile is bad because...
because its not that bursty anymore
!aa
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).
is puzzlebox in m+ better for subrogue even though we just use it half as often? or did them chinese ppl just not get guidon yet
aint no way the gdruid is outbursting us
i mean in alpha people were defending making the class less bursty 🥴
There’s no other profile otherwise lol
TBH if you zoom out after haste - our damage profile pretty close to OL. 😂
Just less unforgiving of down time.
yeah, our class sucks ass
for aa optimization we want all those check marks or jsut one is ok ?
All
Anyone mind looking through a log and seeing what i'm fucking up? a 12 parse is pretty fucking sad.
Rogue stocks down for sure
Post it.
burst too often and you just aren't bursting anymore
guys vault for sure
30 sec cd, 6 sec duration
Too much crit not enough haste mast, mast should be high.
Trinkets and gearing needs some work.
Your opener seems ok but then you don’t use dance with sectec on second, and then seems like the trend continues throughout the fight.
You should be able to get two danced sectecs in blades, not dancing on a sectec is going to make it hit like a noodle
I’d read the wowhead rotation and get that memorized or close to.
aite, I think it was just that first one i fucked up, the rest look all the same time. Gear is a pita but i'm trying, cannot buy a fucking ring drop it's triggering me, i just keep getting shoulders
id use finality over potent powder
I can always get the one Sectec in dance with blades, but i don't seem to be able to get 2
if you don't have guidon+4pc+700 haste you'll struggle to fit 2x sectech in blades
outside lust you won't likely be able to
getting the appropriate haste, plus guidon will add damage
then just making sure to fit 2x in blades
hit every global in dance etc
I’d agree but 4pc gives blades 24seconds, so even with low haste and a 20s sectec should always save face there, there’s more wiggle time. And haste increasing dance helps
no it makes blades 20 sec
Atleast makes the rotation feel better
which is the likely cd on sectech
Oh I’m dumb then lol I might have just had 4pc anyways
wasnt the talent swap always weaponmaster and pp
dont recall finality ever being dropped
how bad is plume? st sim is like 800 dps ahead compared to renown trink but the hardest ST content is prey
But then yeah you have no second to try and get second danced sectec as you’ll want 18% to bring it to 19s
depends on target count. lower target count favors wpn master
aite so 700~ ish haste, 4pc, get better trinkets and more mastery.
650 haste is also ok. 700 buffed with oils is fine
i dont recall logs dropping finality ever
also if you wanna pad on that fight you can save blades til 2mins when the adds spawn
will bump your number up too lol
Ah i'm fine with not padding, just wanting to kill the boss and not be a dead weight. wondered if i was fucking something up
and make sure to get 2 dances in blades, missed that a few times
Yeah because i can't get 2 sectecs in blades i never know if i should be dancing twice straighta way in a row and not having sectec in dance, or holding dance for the second sectec
i just tend to wing it
at 1:33 and 3:14
can send dance without sectech in blades, just not the other way around
Dear god what
so send dance without sectec in blades, and then wait for dance for sectec outside of blades
Please leave the spec alone I am finally having fun
p much
aite sounds good
you want to supercharge every sectech outside blades
I mean.
There's a lot in there you can do better. You should basically never be sitting idle for 3+ seconds then waste a gcd in dance immediately for feint, for example.
Your uptime is really low. Try to use your mobility to stay in melee range. You are late on adds, and don't have dance up for the adds.
In 5:30 you could have cast 17 dance+SecTec, and you cast 14. You have the same amount of auto attacks as I did in a 3:17 kill.
No pot.
Etc.
hopefully i can get some half decent gear to drop. I fucking swear loot is bugged or some shit all i get is shoulders
Is sub seeming like a viable m+ title pushing spec with how things are looking at this point? I've been playing devour past 3200 because of how sad I was with tuning but I miss my yellow guy
no
I doubt title will be good for rogue in any spec
Sad times fr
If you have a group its probably good enough
Unfortunately we bring nothing but pad in keys lol
might not be easily puggable but ye if you have a group it should be def doable
But pugs generally dont want rogues unless were turbo OP, and while we do good damage, we arent that OP
just swap to resto druid man
its what i did for keys
insta invite to every single key
it's always been too high
tww they got it right
well thats any healer
Definitely not any healer for 15 and up
If I'm low on energy and blades/dance is coming in ~3s, do I send evisc or keep my combo points for burst?
otherwise you spend 99% of the game getting declined lol
aite thanks for the help
hold
I’d hold
Thanks
I usually notice that if I send dance+sectec between 10 and 20s remaining of blades, I don't get the second dance immediatly after the first
I assume that's a haste issue + lacking 4 set, at that point, do I stop sending dance+sectec at 20s left of blades?
you'd hold dance+sectech with <10 on blades, then hold blades til you can fit 2x dance
blades isn't as strong anymore so sometimes you hold
perma dance 
feelin like sepulcher's blades uptime but now its dance
perma dance is a great way to feel like dances do nothing
also perpetually screws you if yo have downtime
at that point its just a toggled aura
dances do something but look what they did to poor blades
rn sometimes it feels like
send the sectech stat
or you brick your alignment
later
Dance only does something, because without out it were noodles
as it should be
I mean sub should be a noodle outside dance
thats the point
But rn you're rarely in noodle mode.
I’d atleast wanna be a spicy ramen though
and they did raise the floor of the spec damage outside dance, but the ceiling was lowered disproportionately
how can i do dmg to salhadar and orb ? we cant cleave anymore no? or do i just dance + bp?
kk so i ignore big ones
if the big orb isnt dying u should hit it
ye your frost mages will destroy them without even targetting them even easier
Honestly
I already got gearfed baboons at 277
Which other melees don't lose that much dmg when switching between ST and M+?
in my raid
Most cleave better than us (dk/war)
Ceiling is absurdly low. Far cry from the old days where Sub was the lowest floor and one of the highest ceiling classes in MoP.
far cry from last season

not even mop
Lol fair.
well they wanted to "simplify" things
Do they lose dmg on bosses when using AoE talents?
which for some reason means make sub not bursty
revert nimble nerfs and give it Precise Cuts treatment
A lot of specs literally have the same rotation. 😂
then add at least half the damage amp from flag into blades
Give it the chimera shot treatment. 👀
Honestly don’t know. My 1 brain cell is used for rogue
typically they trade off st for aoe and vice versa
What I meant is their st natural cleave is better than ours
well yeah uhdk naturally cleaves by doing its st rotation
I always say "I'll play X in this season" and then I always go back to sub rogue because nothing else gives me the same satisfaction...
think last time i watched he was double passive
ok itss dead 3 pulls
arms gets free sweeping strikes from hitting cs
swear on prog i didnt see him puzzlebox i could just miss it
Bruh like
Your arguments don't make any sense guys just saying
We are hardly top DPS or anywhere near top tier
constant burst means no burst
because that's just your baseline damage at that point
Lots of burst means falling asleep half the fight
I don't wanna look at my 8k backstabs for 2 minutes thanks
and I want my damage spikes to be spikes not bumps
I do want to do that
They are spikes
Not if the spec is designed well. Lots of thinking involved in pooling on a well designed burst spec.
Yes
yes
Yes
Thats literally what we are asking for
And your DPS will be shit that whole time
Yes that sounds great thanks
Why are you asking for that
because it makes the burst more impactful
More fun that way. Make the burst matter more.
its pretty basic
that’s what sub excelled and and was fun
the concept of Disparity
Dopamine rush when big numbers
Go play another flat ass spec if you don’t like it
Bro I am not failing to understand your "amazing concepts"
Sub is not a flat ass spec
I like big burst and i cannot lie
Yes. It is
I liked being an orbital cannon
waxmaxxing
If that's the way you wanna go then we will be shit in keys
not a lil stick poker
Out 90 seconds is flat as a pancake
Well no
what is this mount everest
Spikemaxxing
historically untrue
this design is literally 10x worse in raid
sub burst carried phases
than the old version
its joever, rogue benched
ugh give me this back please
Tww sub wouldve been #1 spec on bird
Usually more spiky damage profiles better in raid.
Midnight sub is on the bench
yep
Show me all the rogues in the world first guilds please
We're doing so good with our amazing sustained dps
who's got the exile ss from dimmy
How are people this blind to what’s actually good
yep
you may notice they are benched this tier with new static design and they would have played multiple in mfo if they had them
!guidon
Light Company Guidon (haste on use) Optimization:
When? - Only with the Season 1 4-set bonus and Guidon.
How? - During Shadow Blades, line up your second Shadow Dance with the last 8 seconds of Shadow Blades instead of using them back-to-back.
Why? - This allows you to fit another Secret Technique into Shadow Blades+Shadow Dance. It will not be supercharged but thats ok in this scenario.
Liquid literally wished they had two rogues prepped last tier
Bruh I came from assas
Assas DPS with cooldowns is amazing
Without cooldowns you are just standing there doing fuck all
It's boring af
sin is consistently boring af
Lol dude you're just trolling at this point. They on the bench to make raid spots for specs with burstier profiles.
Just got gutted, and now we miss cdr on sectec lol
and now forced to be even more boring with Implacable literally stopping your rotation to use

That’s the spec identify. 40 apm boomer spec
And you wanna turn sub into that
With sub I am feeling like I am always preparing to do something big or doing something big
Yet it is never big
while poking with toothpicks
i can confidentally say, i did not fall for the gaslighting of "everything stays the same"
where it was quite big
Sin been boring before specs even existed as we know it today. I refused to play mutilate. 😂
I will no longer be ragebaited 🧘♂️
How the hell is turning it back to higher highs and whatever lows a 40 apm boomer spec?!?
time to go buy cat food
Bro if you are sitting around waiting on a 1min or 2 min cooldown then you are playing the 40 apm boomer spec
How are you guys missing this
Midnight? No burst? Apex talents? You must’ve hit your head pretty hard brother, get up, netherprism dropped
I think they talking about sin.
if it had a 30 sec cd you wait 30 sec
not 1 or 2 mins
that's how time works

Dumbass didn’t understand 30 second dance isn’t KB or DM
if only netherprism came back
Actually take me back to tww s3
I can’t
in place of goremaw's please thanks
30sec dance for 6 secs, you wanna press 4 buttons in one dance and you're telling me I'm the 40 apm boomer kek
I said 30 sec cd, 6 sec duration
that's not waiting 1 min
I mean hell. I'd take symbols & flag.
lil bro
Li'l bro you are confusing one thing with the other
Are you actually this ignorant or trolling?
Goremaw needs to be removed, it’s counter intuitive that “Next x abilities cost no energy” when we get energy for finishing.
if you press 4 buttons in 6 sec you gotta work on that
GCD?
its a 1 sec gcd
Sub in tww: Big burst, flexibile damage cooldowns that can be assigned wherever theyre needed, big cleave while doing full ST.
Sub in midnight: Good on constant big aoe cleave
wow he's getting it
Which profile is preferred in raid? 
...
He’s not.
My god what the hell lmao okay continue on with your silly suggestions then
I don't wanna get called softly offensive so I'm trying here
Netherpirsm apex talent....
I do get it, but you guys are not making any sense
pressing more buttons = / = more engaging gameplay
and i’m 100% sure youre relying in your group to cc mobs instead of using the apm you desire to do all the stops yourself so ur just arguing for the sake of it
Go full asshole
Alright so I've got this idea: rogue tank.
Pull a scath
.
If you guys want longer cooldowns and more burst
Then YOU are pressing LESS buttons

Not necessarily
Rosvall typing
Can we atleast keep tricks and put it on a dps we don’t like ?
Yes, 100%
Idk why APM is brought up, its not super relevant to the discussion
I can't I have errands to run
It transfers all aggro to them.
they did this in SOD and it was really bad
100% tricks
Obviously … lol
SoD isn't retail and isn't representative of anything modern
I offended someone saying assa is 40 apm boomer spec
I didn't even bring it up
You didn't offend me my guy
the people who designed rogue tank would undoubtedly be consulted on it again lol
Just like the past few seasons assa will likely be better in more gear. But the gameplay around apex (which doesn’t provide unless you drop envenom) is weird af (but hey it may be bis for paladins.
games are really not that different also
Classic rogue is incredibly different to modern retail rogue
not really press button do dam press button do cc press button not die
Stop pressing button and get no number
80085 spec
I guess Sub is like classic rogue in that we are pushing backstab and doing no damage.
Not 8008135?
we aren’t pushing backstab, and still not doing damage
Except it was sinister strike back then lil gup
Same difference
!log
Hey there, would anyone be willing to give some feedback to my Rogue friend? His name is Esdain.
What classes are being sought out on M+ and raids?
what is the best ring combo i should get out of m+/raid - heroic? or just go for crafted ones?
Anything not rogue
That's sad
I guess the only good thing is that sub is dominating in pvp
Getting some huge mixed info for sub and haste. The two "top" raider.io sub rogues have less than 18% haste. Is 18% haste not a requirement?
About that…
actually true. got an invite last night, group absolutely blasted and lead told me at end his main is rogue so when he plays alts he alwasy tries to invite rogues
m+ is not raidd
What level of the game? Pugging, Heroic? Mythic? +12 keys, Just weekly?
!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.
Im not talking about raid.
then haste doesnt matter
I'm talking about raider.io M+ score, the top M+ sub rogues have less than 18% haste. I thought we needed 18%
Pugging
Either you get ~700 haste or you get ~200, never something inbetween. For big aoe getting those 500 stat points into mastery is better
But its at the cost of a lot of ST
k but would that hurt your ST
nvm
so 700 haste is a good middle ground between ST and AOE?
What level of pugging? Are you looking to push high keys or just general play? 'Cos rogue is fine for general play.
then you want 18%
Oh come on :c
Alright, ty. So these top M+ sub rogues are going more mast/less haste purely for gigachad AOE pulls?
yes
I guess +12 or higher?
Probably fine atm. But the 'meta' perspective will form and Rogue'll naturally be a less desireable pick. But, who knows.
ty, i'll figure out a good point for myself. Might drop a bit below 18% purely for bigger AOE
The MM hunters can handle the ST
i'm a litlte under, but the thalassian oils bring me up to 17.7 which is close enuf. then my trinkets for haste pull me up over for shadow blades anyways
That's a good point, I forgot about oils.
Where are you guys getting haste? None of my gear drops have haste, I'm barely scratching 13%
dont worry guys when i organize a protest in silvermoon youll have as much mastery as you guys want
crafting it and then rings and shit yeah
Gear with haste. Rings from Nexus are good for it. Crafts. Alleria neck, tier sets, etc.
you can enchant haste on rings too
i have haste/mastery on all 3 of my crafted gear
haste is an azeroth government psyop
I'm having a hard time NOT getting haste on my items
if u sim urself vs the best rogues ur prob only like 5-10k dif and its moreso ilvl gap than stat optimization
I keep getting versa gear
ya i'm having hard time not gettin ghaste
IL gap yea, and 4 piece. Ran LFR/Norm/Heroic and couldnt get my last piece D:
i had to craft crit/mastery fora while cause i had too much
And haste flask+food if you that low
Is that more important than the crit ring enchant?
ideally, no
you want to get to 650-700 haste
its jsut if u need to add more haste an du can't get it somewhere else
Run six hundred Nexus-Points for the rings.
You will only mildly regret running six hundred Nexus-points for the rings.
Is that the next gcd?
i've ran magister's terrace 25+ times and i've seen the mount 3x and never have seen the ring, not once even for someone else
I ran 100 dawnbreakers last expansion for the ring, it never dropped
But you could make it worse
i just crafted the ring and done with it lol
And run 100 Nexus point where it's two rings you want
You'll get one and then, darn, you've gotta get the other to finish the set.
Real af
Keep watching everybody else get Omission 
Does anyone know if I can add a sound when coup de grace is ready using blizz cdm?
BiS is pretty whatever.
It's just very well statted for us and the proc isn't terrible (It's like 0.5% or something?)
Nothing
well thankfully managed to snipe this off a bloody frost mage who rolled a 96
It does nothing?
here is it's total damage from a +10 Nexus I ran earlier
make a macro with /coup de grace /black powder and it will case coup first when its ready instead of black powder, u dont need to look for it really
it doesnt even seem to be that high in logs
Neck is sim bait. .5 generous
its bait!
Idk i checked a couple and saw 0.4s and 0.5s
I’ve seen neck .15-.4% in logs, usually .3%
L’ura double socket neck mogs that neck 10/10 times by the way
Yeah probably
ye for sure
But Ring set + Neck is so much haste that it's gonna let you use other pieces for more mastery
Which is why I'm bothering to grind the other ring
I mean
But it's veeery whatever long-term
I’m telling you the lura neck is cortisol maxxing
I’m not recrafting my haste mastery pieces thank you
Haha
Basically
L ur a neck is asu frat leader
ya but everyone wants lura neck too
And the alleria neck is clavicular
pug life
Fuck everyone there’s only one me bro
I only have Alleria neck 'cos it was in my vault and saved me 60 crests
true, only one me too
everyone getting mad about the proc but blind to the haste lol
i'm so greedy my guild knows that i will buy gear from them for gold so they all roll against me to sell it to me
I literally said the proc is whatever, it's the mondo stats!
trying to get enough haste has sucked so far
that will get better kil. i have to recraft my gear to get rid of haste i have so much
It comes and goes
Tier pieces contribute a good amount too
I'm tempted to craft haste/mastery pants
my gear is pretty insane, i'm 273 with alnseer and guido
272 with guidon and snot trinket
yeh atm i've got that shitty world boss trinket >.< least this is 'sort' of a constant for a bit
which is terrible btw
I had sims saying to put back on vet gear for haste i was like bruh...
oh dear lol
Fuckin' DO SOMETHING TRINKET.
did u craft for haste, you can have 3 mythic crafted items by now
this tier i've been cursed that's for sure xD
choose a ring and u should be fine for haste
definitely holding crests over 3rd crafted item
just working that all out now
surely something good drops right guys!
surely!
big prizes on wednesday
I'm gonna loot a mythic chest
or a dagger
I would also settle for Mythic Nexus ring
i guess i just want any mythic i can turn into tier or a dagger yeah
Lol imagine going 3-heal and still not needing athro poison
I’m having trouble understanding Dance+Sec Tec CDs.
On opener we pop everything, but once that first Dance ends, Blades are still running and Sec Tec is around 6 sec before it comes off cooldown.
We press Dance without SecTec and spam Evisc? But do I then click SecTec during that Dance or wait for next Dance?
I kinda always keep SecTec for Dance windows and never click it without.
You know what, I hope you get those and also even something like a tiny porcelain elephant which you can add to a menagerie of little oddities and trinkets
that'd own
I'd 100% take a tiny procelin elephant over an item
Makes you wonder if it was ever needed at all
i just full send double dance on shadowblades and dont save for the 2nd sectec, but i'm not sure if that's right or not. it feels way better than waiting tho
i just send sec tech when its ready inside dance
Just make everyone buy avoidance enchants and you get the same effect. 👀
Yeah im in same boat. Idk whats correct.
Ig it depends on situation?
i think what i'm doin is right, getting lots of 99 parses
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Mind sharing your logs in dm or here? I’d like to check the sequence
You ideally supercharge both secrets
By holding dance for a bit in blades
You use dance before guidon expires
It’s just kinda awful
When new class tunning?
What are people using to make buff bars for trinkets?
maybe we see notes tomorrow
Anyone have some free time to check? 
Maybe after 3 hours
how come ayjie cdm is the only one i found where u can add trinkets/pots to buff tracker and extra bars for defensive buffs?

Evis back on nimble. +3% crit raid buff. What else? 2% to BP?
Idk arc and better cdm can both do those things
Im sure most of the other options can
better cdm cant
It definitely can
thats what i was writing
is matrix trinket from FL TW anygood?
do i need to setup from 0 on one of these 2 or can import my bcdm profile for icons?
yea think people were asking for the guidon duration specifically
I'm not sure if it can do buff icons
ye that's what I ended up making
They don't really track the duration. Just start a timer with a predefined duration and animation
For 99.9% of the cases for something like CoS it'll be correct
But if there's some time dilution or similar that it's not accurate
It's pretty ridiculous the in-game CDM can't track Trinkets at all.
is there a specific log command or can i post a log for analyse in here?
You can do !log to do a log
with the link ? or only !log ?
what about centered cdm addon?
It'll open a thread and you can post it in it.
Wait what causes guidon and blades to desync?
The affix in keys
M+ affix
ah
Which affix?
emissary
Still no rogue in RTWF?
wait, you CAN macro Guidon to SB? i thought it doesnt work
You can, just not SD
Cant macro it with dance
Which makes it kinda redundant to macro it to blades
I have SD/Guidon macro'ed and never get a desync
ah ok
eh, i never had dance macro with sblades cus im a weirdo
!guidon
Light Company Guidon (haste on use) Optimization:
When? - Only with the Season 1 4-set bonus and Guidon.
How? - During Shadow Blades, line up your second Shadow Dance with the last 8 seconds of Shadow Blades instead of using them back-to-back.
Why? - This allows you to fit another Secret Technique into Shadow Blades+Shadow Dance. It will not be supercharged but thats ok in this scenario.
But how you do that ?
Wait, they removed evisc from nimble?
That's why we don't evisc on aoe anymore?
ye, a while ago
if wow analyzer updated for sub ?
How can you cast 2 supercharged sectecs during one blade?
set bonus extend duration from blades
yeah but sectec cd still around 19~20sec
lust+guidon
yeah i only really get it supercharged with lust
so you cast the 1st at start of blades, the 2nd at the end, but if you used the dance like 7~8sec before and it's also the end of dance, you cant have the supercharged
!guidon Do this instead ecologue

so its fine to macro guidon with sb ?
Take me back...
lust does not affect sh*t
since when ?
you lose a second of blades uptime but if you really want to you can make that tradeoff
The dream
!haste
Secret Technique cooldown gets reduced by all haste sources, while Shadow Dance only from haste which increases your baseline haste. When using a haste trinket, make sure to use it before Shadow Dance to get the extended duraiton.
The recommended ~700 haste gives you two additional globals in Shadow Dance and Guidon will grant one extra on top of that.
because shadowdance has more duration based on haste?
yeas but not with lust
lust doesn't work on SD, I think it only works on SecTech
Yeah
IF ONLY THERE WAS A COMMAND
thats such a blizz thing man
im not reading if it doesnt include funny cat gifs
tbf, I just got here. LOL
@hazy breach I just dont get how your 2nd sectec can be supercharged, is it because you use a 3rd dance at the end of blades ?
Funny enough though Sub was considered super troll in raid. 😂
Hidden op for like an expansion from that point forward.
Adding a funny cat gif to all commands so when people use them we get to see a funny cat, too. That smart

You delay the dance a short moment and because of haste, sectec has a shorter cooldown
And because you delayed you can dance sectec

Because blades is 20s with tier set
ok so with 650 haste it seems that the recover of sectec is way too long even with a bl
Which is why it stipulates that
Hey all, just a quick question to clarify something because I swapped to sub not too long ago, in any situation involving 2 adds (like first boss of Windrunner Spire), do we still use shuriken storm and black powder as our main abilities or does it switch to shadowstrike and evisc?
so anyone wants to share his raidbot premium with me so i can sim all dungeons? or anyone want to create ann acc and ill send him paypal? 😄

Finisher is Evisc 1-2 target, BP if 3 or more. Unless you're talented into "Potent Powder". You can Black Powder at 2 targets then
does the cast animation of sectec have to finish during blades or is it just if i get the button pressed before blades ends the damage amp will be applied?
And for building :
In dance : Shadowstrike 1-3 targets, more you press Shuriken Storm
Out of dance : backstab 1 target, 2 and more, shuriken storm
Ok so since we use potent powder in general for m+ it would always be powder as finished, and for our generator is it shadowstrike for 1-2 targets and BP for 3+?
It does not snapshot at all
So blades needs to be up when they hit
oh you answered it 😄
Aka 1.2s after you press the button for the second one
Yep, hope it's clear
no guidon is kinda frustrating right now
if it makes u feel better using it doesnt feel like anything
like when u press puzzle box, u can see the number go brrr but guidon is legit background noise
it's just that having the sectec back JUST after the end of blades...

so
If I'm at O CP but all my cds are available with trickster, it better to build with backstab to 6+ cp then send blades+dance+ST or just use the dance + shuriken to build or would i build with strike?
weve lost the rogue on bird XD
Ideally you shouldnt have eviscerated to end up at 0 cp to begin with
But yes then you'd send dance+shuriken
Ok but that means I messed up got it, so i should've planned better
Dont finish when sectech is about to come up (or blades)
Even if I overcap energy obviously?
Cool thanks
is it normal during SB that my second sectec doesnt fit into the second dance? or should i delay the second dance to fit sectec into it
read above xd
its funny that guy just said that
😢
oh fr lol myb i just woke up HAHA
bros dat pvp dummy that let you in fight for lightyears
i have 200 fps in all content and on the last boss (midnight falls hc) i have like 3fps when we pull
any ideas what could be causing this?
disabling all addons is the simple fix rn
u just solved all ur problems congrats
Its just baseline
ok
Indicated by the green tooltip of the cd
but not even written in the spellbook in other way
I'm trying to have enough haste without guidon to get a 18second sectec cd
858, not enough
If you find me somebody that likes it i would be surprised
yea it is also krangled as f
yeah thats what I thought lmfao
I wanted BL to not be useless
and now it is even less useful than in tww
Instead BL got worse and we got haste breakpoints
Has there been any other tips for sub rogue on paladins fight. I saw some top logs use ST with evis.instead of BP
ya bloodlust being worse is pretty dumb i rather just go back to no haste
what specs want vers currently?
outlaw
i miss vers mast
Not really. Evis VS BP on 2 target is about the same with PP specced
Sin is also ass
Sin is bad but its better than sub at that fight lol
everything is
for chimaerus what's the best for us ? 1st grp or 2nd ?
i felt 1st group was better
yeah other classes do that better too
meanwhile warrior just presses wrecking throw
You'd think that rogues as an archetype would have a way to deal damage through shields or something. Like find weakness but for absorbs
Turns out you want a dps that can do more damage during the 30 second window than the guardian druid
yeah got puzzle box so squeezing in the second sectec is very close, prob need to switch to haste flask to make sure i can hit it better
What if we called it Expose Armor?
So a class without any burst aint doing that much
And you had to use it as a finisher
wait
the guardian druid was doing more than the rogue in the intermission?
because thats very believable
ive seen bears do illegal things in m+
echo kills it tomorrow replacing perfecto with 3rd ele sham watch
Anyone that would be willing to give my friend some feedback? 
whats his ilvl
264 i think
=yes
what is the haste breakpoint for fitting the 2nd sectec into blades with 4pc?
700 or so with guidon
it is a bit less tight
but otherwise like a bit more than 700 should be fine
rogue seems miserable outside the egg phase, best you can do is soaks and/or sprint+cloak the orbs
we can go bonkers with puzzlebox or similar in egg phase though
if hes doing 200-300K dam during SB/puzzlebox aoe, 100-180K outside of puzzlebox aoe and 80-110K dps ST (bar mechanics) hes probably not doing anything wrong, its just rogue/gear
the thing is even in the egg phase
we are very mid
like really
like surely not the worst but also
idk if thats true
Bonkers seems a bit much haha
nah assa might be able to almost do the same as bear
we dont have super high burst
xd
this fight just looks like another nightmare for rogues
do we not want to use ancient arts on sec tec?
no rogue spec has st, no rogue spec has cleave, no rogue spec has burst
apex 3 is whatever on sec tech
we dont actively avoid it
but also dont look for it
Who is doing 2-300k during SB/puzzle?
That seems low
The ST isnt too bad, but no boss tier has been even close to being ST
the thing is im pretty sure an unholy dk or an ele shaman with hands will GAP you in st
like those are the real st specs i think
ele shaman is also not crazy
cleave really hurts in certain dungeon bosses
uh dk is tho
for 264? undefined stats ?
u might peak higher but by end of pull thats a p normal number for that ilvl i think
well yeah
ur not hitting the 500K marks until like 270 and hella mastery stacked
even with a lot of mastery getting that high will be hard i guess
i have around 1k mastery and this was voraius around 273 ilvl
maybe with M puzzle you can get to around 300k
the whole dance + stec hold < 10 sec to blades is if second dance is less than 10 sec of the blades cd right? otherwhise u have to wait for 1 + 2/3 of the other one?
big dam big freakin dam
you can send blades dance + sec with with 10 secs on the second chage yea
as you exit first you need to wait 3 or 4 seconds anyway
so the other charge gets back
yeah thats what i ment with the 2/3 on the second one
its without tfd so its another 6 sec
i believe
what about stats
With 700 Haste and light trink i'm finding that I have another secret tech at the end of Shadowblades. Is it worth holding that for the next supercharger or just sending it with blades and having the CD up with a dance charge?

superb idea
Raidbots droptimizer?
Doesnt really work for sub
oh
As it fucks with your haste breakpoint
haste break points woooo
Like if you have 700 haste its gonna show any haste item as bad
Likewise if you have no haste its gonna show haste items as +++
why do people shuriken storm in the opener on 1 target?
Its just cursed
679 haste okay with guidon and 4pc?
