ye that's the one
it has the broken/shattered blade look which is cool
I do genuinely think rogue is good in March
i dont like non dagger animations for sub
though its not as bad as sword animations on sin

I need to get to do more March, we've only done one normal clear while we wrap up voidspire
it seems fine
for chim only afaik
guess ill see next reset
there are only like 120 crown kills
gonna be a good amount of hof ones
isnt it top 100
no 200
o
Yeah, just Chim
Yeah, it wasn't a bad title
Unironically "fine" is good because atro is genuinely a good raid buff
nice that gaze is strong for how early a boss chim is
It's great for pugging, too.
'Cos you can get 2 strong trinkets without lockout issues
i thought we'd moved past the ragebaiting stage
Bro I'm srs
When rogue is "fine" atro is good
When rogue is complete dogshit ass like on last 2 voidspire, atro is bad
can only be applied to one boss in p3 lura
Don't care
gapped by devo aura yet again

lol saw those with the most recent buffs
wdym? we got our 1% 
one rework and new roles please, we'll never get solved
LMFAOOO what even was that context
who is “we”
I'm 99% sure it was you blasting people for dooming about something lol
Oh yeah for sure
I feel like
That was in undermine
When ppl were very upset sin was getting buffed and not sub
from Oct of last year
It could've been at multiple points of TWW.
so a bit of an oldie
You'll never find me dooming unless you do then it wasn't me.
how are you/gn feeling about these hot fresh lura nerfs
as someone who took a break from TWW, honestly, you could put that at amost any expansion at different points xD
some of them seem a little heavy handed
Only nerf that really matters is the HP
But the HP nerf is huge
What's considered a decent single Target dps for sub right now in a raid
Hi all. I'm more of an Outlaw guy... but for aoe in m+, is it like spam shruiken form and then black powder?
an entire reset + 3% buff + vantus + lol
yeah i just mean it's a little sad to see mechanic nerfs
like why does she not do memory game ccw now
was that genuinely a common wipe condition
our guild would probably wipe forever to that iteration of terminate though 
Its like
Idk if u remember queen but its like
an HP nerf just makes fights so easy
Cuz like
Ur gonna be dealing so much more damage
and "scary overlaps" some of the end of fight, scary overlaps just dont happen
Ye hp nerf is big I just usually don’t like big mechanic nerfs
Idrk if this fight specifically did have crazy overlaps at the end but
atro is garbage regardless of rogue tuning
Cope
bro we are not healers who the fucks wants to provide a 3.6 dr
give me some offensive buffs
that i can proivde the raid
not some devo shit
Atro has been the main reason every raid has been a 1 of rogue since its inception
i know
a true non-roguer 
Has someone found a CDM addon that lets the user color each combo point separately?
I think the HP nerf removes maybe 10-20 pulls. The other nerfs is like 100 pulls. Goes from a 500 pull boss to maybe 200-300 now
Still pretty insane
this is all i got - not sure if ur looking for more
Are those a thing or no?^^
I've usually been coloring 4-7, but that's a start. Which addon is that?
Twintop's Resource Bar - it lets you edit the colors per point too it looks like
maybe dumb question, saw some POVs where the Keybind of Backstab just changes to Shadowstrike, is that a stealth bar thing or am i missing something? im using a macro atm to have both as one keybind but theres always a delay when shadow dance is running out
I just use a stealthbar
The only 2in1 macro I know of is the Powder/Coup macro
but, you can use:
#showtooltip Shadowstrike
/cast [bonusbar:1] Shadowstrike; Backstab
!stats
The following is a general recommendation, but you will always get more accurate results through simming your gear through Top Gear.
Single Target / Mythic+: Mastery >= `Haste(~18%, roughly 650-700)` > `Critical Strike` > Versatility
thats what ive been using but i feel like i use a gcd with that macro when shadow dance is about to run out
i found the same thing, so i just use the stealthbar and set up basically a "mirror" of my non stealth bar - havnt noticed it since
based, gonna try that

you mean the jellyfish?
does the BC sharpening stone affect sub like it does sin?
or is it better to just use oil MH still
Also works on sub

i forgot about bubbling wax, do you know if its still good
around 18 % Haste should be a breakpoints right .. i see alot of ppl go with like 12 or 15 % haste..
did i miss sth?
what
aim for 650-700
can get it with mana oil/flask/gems
can usually lean on flask if you just can't get haste gear to drop
Percents don’t matter
iam rn on 602 haste without everything. I thought to craft boots with crit haste to hit
or just use a flask and oils
but then i dont know what to craft ^^
for like a 1% gain
Something with crit and mastery. 
why is this so difficult to understand for soooooooo many
thought the 650-700 should be like just gearwise without flask etc
by any means necessary
gear, oil, flask, gems
procs or on-use effects don't count towards that range
how many people are actually running deathstalker as opposed to trickster? seems like very few and it doesnt seem like enough of a dps increase to warrant the extra precautionary playstyle
No. You need a raw number between 684-700 from gear, weapon oils, gems, enchants and flask.
Nothing else matters
Njet
I pretty much stopped simming gear and just look at my total haste and see if I can still hit the range by shifting gems/flask
with respect to ilvl if its close to the range
weird question but anyone know of an addon that lets you change the red overlay when youre out of range on the cdm? like instead of the whole icon going red add a dot instead like the actionbars
Thanks for the answer ;)
surely that isn't real, is it?
it is
the scaling on the stones was not adjusted
or well they can still be used
which is why some classes use them for a little extra damage
blizz basically set themselves up for shananigans like this with level and stat squishes
@hazy breach Sent a DM as instructed 😁
we talking about right?
well sharpening stone for daggers
yeah
does rogue poison work on crown mythic?
am i hearing adamantite sharp stones > Thalassian Oil?
In mainhand yes
(its not that big of an increase, and can get fixed at any time, but who the fuck knows when that is)

eleem, whis, solo theorycrafat gods - love you guys
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/vc6BQCVbwKDGpMzd?fight=15&type=healing&options=49156 did like 11m on my kill
maybe once we get higher item levels

we sadly don't rly want vers anymore
Thank God I did splits because I straight up didn't listen and send my main to 32% verse.
do i get punished by the rogue gods if i craft sth with crit/haste ?^^ If my math isnt wrong the craft should fit perfect with my gear
Nah that’s fine
If it puts you in the range you wanna be in
Can go crit or mastery/haste
is this weightstone just a sub thing or would it be the same for assassin
yeah crit and mastery are both important this season
Thanks for the answers
but next week you might wanna lose some haste etc
the gear on !fuu for sub is updated?

Hi, is this accurate for a guide ?
https://bloodmallet.com/chart/rogue/assassination/trinkets/castingpatchwerk
last link is SUB
It is accurate for what trinket is the best if you only have one trinket yes
Is anyone actually using Ranger Captain’s
Its fine, but i wouldnt really recommend it
I tried it awhile back but it was really annoying as a second on use
Yeah and unless you have it on mythic it doesnt even sim better than the crucible
Used it for crest discount.

any reason my sim is saying haste/crit gems past 700 haste when raid buffed
Is it getting like 850 or so
am i high ? why people are using CN char ?
no, im at 724 (20%) with oils on
sim doesnt appear to count the oil
i get 32 haste from oil
724 without raid buffs, just gear and oil
700 is the reported breakpoint
32 haste from gems, and 32 from oil included in that
!haste
Secret Techniques cooldown gets reduced by all haste sources, while Shadow Dances duration only gets increased by Haste Rating from gear or consumables. When using an on-use haste trinket, make sure to use it a bit before Shadow Dance to get the extended duration.
The recommended ~700 haste gives you two additional globals in Shadow Dance and Guidon will grant one extra on top of that.

Just as an aside, I love how shit is available via this bot. Whoever set it up, you're doin a bang up job
sim is dogshit
it tries its best and we mortals cannot understand its workings
I didn't ask which is better I wanted public opinion
Sim is dogshit so i would rather hear what other people have simmed 
is it bad that i only get near 700 haste after pot?
just using flask of the blood knights everytime it runs out
im gonna use 1x acuity 1x arcane mastery though later though
not really
it is what it is
because think of it this way
cool
assuming you are at the same ilvl with your current gear
other people who have played both 
all it really is, is just swapping your stats around
if you have the 150 haste or w/e it is from flask and 150 more mastery on gear
or you have 150 less mastery on gear and 150 more haste so you pop the mastery flask
your stats haven't changed
np
All of it is just propaganda by Big Sim to get you to pay for Raidbots Premium
who have colluded with BIG ENCHANTS to get you reenchant things every time you acquire a piece of gear
wake up sheeples
cant you see it's all a scam

It’s a whole racketeering bit with Big Gem too
robot needs less haste than dad with 3 kids
any reason to ever be over 700 haste as trickster, fully buffed?
Didnt really answer why SIM is saying gem for haste/crit when im over 700
haste is mainly for getting more casts off during shadow dance
700+ gives you more breathing room
in case of fuckups
Show sim
does tricker's tricks of the trade interfere with tank swap mechanics for the hour duration its on a tank?
is the adamantite stone really better for us atm?
adamantite just on mainhand ?
a "use" trinket is bad enough but one that makes me wait for a cast time is crossing the line
Guidon basically has a cast time too 
use it with shadowstrike and it doesnt
can only really do that in opener
arent u forced to sit still for puzzle box
yep
a whole 2 seconds
you still have to wait one second after using guidon to use dance
Psede confirmed puzzle box apologist
yeah but
negative
thats like negligible compared to a whole 2 second CAST
50%. Very negligible. 
that's why I said basically, not literally
sub 5 dungeon trinket vs chad raid trinkets
Trying to talk sense in here while sub is remotely decent in m+. Good luck.
ok but u can move with guidon and its half the time, a whole second is a lot of time especially when ur forced to sit still
well, i mean
Sounds like a zoomer problem
I can in fact not move for 2 seconds
Play outlaw. No need for either trinket.
people complain
i do
is it normal to fit a second sectech in first shadow blades window duringlust without guidon
but the thing if you dont stop ad spam
I see blizz is adding tuning for 12.0.5 still
yes
it becomes alot worse than just one shadowstrike
we shall see none of that
okay nice, and without lust u just send 2nd dance during shadow blades without sectech
idk I like when there's a raid and m+ trinket that are within a couple tenths of a percent of each other
no guidon^^
i dont know i lowkey got guidon before 4 set
then I don't feel completely cucked if I don't get the raid one
how u know answer to other question hahaha
difference of opinion
i asked the same question way back
I like having the option
like week 1
anyone
M+ is the puzzle box 2 sec cast
yeah you press it while tank gatheres
though anyone playing rogue above vault keys
has issues
alright lets see if my rat 253 aug can get into a/4 +10's for vault
rogue is a joke
always has been
!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.
i’m on about no guidon
have you tried getting guidon?
yes
you send b!2b
Normal is there.
and normal
though idk
Guess you’re not really trying
i need a rework bad
i have lfr trink
its amazing how they can take probably the best iteration of sub and completely fuck it up
this sub mega chill idk
swear it feels kinda nice to play just bit too simple
too lazy to look gonna ask here anyways LOL
does guidon stack with BL haste? not like i'm going to use it outside of blades window anyways but jw
people
ye i agree it’s chill
that kick you from group after you use your port
It’s a vibe in raid. I like it.
should be shot
Wish it had cleave
just buff us chat
just give us back tww nimble flurry
I miss the burst cleave niche a lot
bring back DF sub with flagellation
yeah the lack of flexibility sucks donkey
I liked having a job that isn't just "cloak this"
like powering through a NK platform or Araz add set
made me feel special
WHat do you need to flex in the raid?
tuning and gameplay r diff things
I honestly don't know what I would do to improve gameplay from a global-to-global perspective
I think part one would be adding maybe another, slight-cd builder
Line your shit up on whatever needs to die. Sblades being meh gives you some flexibility
(that isn't goremaws)
add spawns 
also paladins returning back
genuine question, what do you feel rogue/sub's niche is in Midnight?
also amp damage phase on p1 alleria
being on the bench
i know m dreamrift is kind of a joke now but which group does sub prefer to be in? i would think 2nd for big pad?
idk it's a "we used to have it and i miss it"
Nothing rn cuz rogue is undertuned
ROgue is like, okay ST, and a raid buff
thats abt it
Tuning aside, how would you improve gameplay?
quick 1 second condensed burst damage
it feels bad to have forced movemnt
You’re playing assa on paladins, bench on crown.
I dont feel like the gameplay needs fixing
I think current sub is fun
so? it's still good to have
and part of the benching/not play can be attritubed to our lack of everything
That’s tuning, not 20 seconds CDs that people refuse to move on prog
idt having rupture, or flag, or goremaws would enhance my fun
agreed
flexibility is also nice to have in m+
you do?
I would much rather have this iteration than one with rupture. sod, flag, goremaws
I think the strength of flag built into blades would be dope
nymue sub was fun to me but maybe i'm just autistic
Hold Sblades for a full use. Send Sectech as often as possible, unless dance going to outlast pack.
literally 20 second cd spec. Use as often as you can when it mashes sense.
idk I would personally like an additional builder or effect into Dance so its not just strike->evisc for every global that isn't sectech
I find that loop a bit droll
Thats just tuning right
Which I would agree, rogue should do more dmg
Yeah yeah 100%
i feel like coup de grace is precisely the fun factor i wanted
You rather sit on a 40 second dance for flexibility?
I think mechanically I would re-add evisc and strike back into nimble
But it’s not the same as before
yes
Bullshit
so we aren't doodoobutt on low target cleave
like imagine Precise Cuts on nimble
holy
I played myth vorasius for the first time today and idk if I prefer sub or assa on it tbh. Feel like timings are cooler for a 90s spec
if i wanted to mongo bongo send everything off cooldown i'd play basically any other spec in the game
like my ret paladin
and fimbul plays a good ret paladin
😎
I've given both sin and outlaw a try in raid and in +10's and its rough
I can't really get behind either from a gameplay/fun perspective
I REAALLY enjoy sin rn in keys
there was a fun element of planning around sending omega burst by sandbagging auto attacking
lots of people probably didnt like that/ignored it
And when I tunnel boss too
I just finished leveling devourer and holy shit, it's so much more fun
idk maybe if I start doing 15's and up
but I really really don't like new CT in larger pulls
Nah even in my weeklies
Sin is def one of those classes that feels worse in lower keys
but i enjoyed being afk on saladbar for 30 seconds before the amp
I just really dislike bleed spread 2 at a time vs old IC
when CT costs what it does
You’re still plsying 40 second dance with mongo bingo on CD. Now you’re just dealing with longer and slower storm to BP with no energy regen. 
new CT is nice on low target bc you get coverage in one or two casts
well yes that's my point, it's mongo bongo dance every 20 seconds basically
i have no choice
it becomes really gated by energy
And it’ll be every 40 seconds with less flexibility. Just worse dps between dances
also I really really really dislike Implacable being a roadblock and having literally zero value if you have a ton of energy influx while at max stacks
bc you get 0 benefit from it for a very long time
im probably gonna swap sin for high keys if i p*sh on rogue
and 5 sec of benefit
Yeah I’ve felt that. Though my biggest problem is balls to the walls tanks just ignoring my need to maybe restealth tbf
idk put a charge on sectech or put sectech only castable in dance
and things change
r*gue
idk I never really feel like I need to stealth
lets not say slurs in here...
That’s not what we’re talking about

thats akin to the flexibility we had before
which is entirely what im talking about
The garrote from stealth is huuuge damage, like if you don’t get that on a new pack it’s huge loss
ig, I usually just lean on vanish
if my top gear sim puts me around 22% haste, should i manually get down as close to 700 as possible or just put my faith in the computers
only works if your tank is properly chain pulling
restealthing this tier feels like such a non issue witih amount of downtime
otherwise you NEED restealth on sin
so many dungeons give you restealth
To be honest I probably only enjoy sin rn because I’m new to it. And don’t have the bias with how much I liked pre-midnight sub.
ye
idk if I've ever really had a tank continuously pull to the point where I felt I wasn't able to get imp garrote value
don't let wh*spyr hear you say that
We didn’t have flexibility last season in keys. Every hold eventually cost you dps as you’d eventually miss a blades or dance cast
no snitching
using stars to bypass language filter smh
Its just whats occuring with your gear ath THAT moment, so I'd trust it until you get better gear
This spec in keys has been send early and send often for quite some time
get 700 haste and then acquire mast/crit
22% haste sounds high tbh
maybe i'm just stupid but how are you guys seeing the secondary stats the sim is putting you at with topgear?

idk I just count manually

Run a quick sim and look at html report
After getting the dagger off vorasius today (yay myth weapon) I need to look at gear again. Sim puts me at like 680 haste with consumes
Need to see if that’s playable

Hit the … on the right of the line with gear changes
doing my weekly 10s for vault is so fun
i get so many compliments
then i run keys for score with my group
and im just a super chud in comparison to my dev
hey how long after using guidon do i need to wait to use shadow dance?
1s
Up to 1 second
LMAO yea i already been dealing with that lol
cursed season for trinkets
jump 3 times
move up and left
pretty sure im mentally conditioned at this point
the season after that trinket
or 2 seasons
mate in VC said "jump 3 times"
and i jumped
twice.
crying
before realising
u shouldve downloaded the spanish woman saying it in ur ear
that weakaura was great~!

fimbul come do 16 seat w me
im working T_T

1 more silly question
sry key

fimbul my favorite ret main
acutally you know what's probably the most cursed timeline thats gonna happen?
i'm probably playing hpal
if i push keys
wtf
just fuck my chungus life
why
because im a brain dead monkey
ho ok
holy shock go brrr
that doesnt want to play druid
tl;dr rogue shit so was thinking of playing paladin
but then our group has no one that wants to heal
so its either i tank on paladin
ok, is it better to consume coup de grace with evisc or secret technique
or heal on paladin
damn
evisc becomes coup
so you can only consume with evisc
or is this black aura on my sides not even what I think it is and im just big stupid
that's from your apex talent
big stupid

lmao damn big stupid indeed
womp womp
side is apex
coup is evis
i have a rule to always go big, even if its stupid
consuming apex with sectech or coup/evis is the same
so mission accomplished
exactly
jesus christ
the more I read this the more im like, how bad are these others that im still getting purples doing this all wrong
Are you guys running potent powder on paladins?
people complain sub is a simple 2 button spec
haha
hey i never complained about that
but yea I feel ya, this stuff should be easy to incorporate
yeah but also just play sin
Fimbulvtr does that with spreading misinformation
looking at logs I see im doing double eviscerates all the time, whereas people doing good damage are rocking it back and forth with strike and evisc

sub is a relatively simple spec
afterwards you can do some minor min maxxing by saving cds for adds
but thats about it
yea
2 targets black powder got me really despressed
cuz we killed dragons this week lmao
during the opener, on the second shadow dance is it worth it to cast 2 shadow strikes back to back to get apex proc to send the secret teq?

Thx
guys, im abit confuse about SD usage inside SB window. do we use it back to back or only when ST is up?
Blades, but yes
Use first with blades on start
use 2nd last 8 seconds of blades
but i wont get supercharged st then, no?
thats fine
That's okay in this case
hmmkay
ty 🙂 ill try that
The macro is really good for it
btw, is it worth picking veiltouched > finality?
You can just #showtooltip Secret Technique with the icon of Sectec, use " " (space) for the name and it will look just like sectec
Does this only happen during second SD during SB? Aren’t supercharged cp always consumed by ST otherwise?
afaik veiltouched is always picked no?
Can happen at any time
no you always get 2 supercharger
and applies to every dance
The apex rule set is always
Oh does ST not consume both?
correct
does this apex rule also apply to aoe?
yer
ahh fuck, so... what does this do actually? i kinda do not get it 😄 is it explained somewhere?

Read it in your talent tree
you spawn a clone that repeats the attack
sub does big finisher dmg
therefore apexing finisher is better than builder
yeah not too big
oh dang
since you're overcapping CP
You mean 150k dps overall in a dungeon?
but it's good to do in aoe for more prio anyways
i mean i do everything correct, despite the 1% optimization. like, i tried both the sd usage u told me and only for st
wait a sec, lemme look if i find the MC 16 run
shiet details deleted it
i had 149k in the end, but full melee comp
monk, warr, feral
and sham
150k is good, but i'm not pushing atm so i have no idea what the standard is right now
im just wondering if the apex optimization is doing the trick, but if u say its 1%
then i.g. not
What trinkets are you using
dont hate me mate...
it won't bridge that gap no
Ah that explains it
apex is bigger gain for priority than st
yep, as i thought
I saw a vid on yt just earlier "you may think dev dh is a useless spec" and I almost spat out my water
People are playing a diff game or summin
😄
Shit he's got a point tho
checking your math on that
get back to you in 3 business days
You should be doing theoretical physics while eating breakfast tbh
rotation
Trigonometry
to the question with veiltouched > finality
this is what im running rn
for m+
im gonna sim that now
Both ST and m+ are running veil touched no
this is the best question i've ever seen in any spec channel
I think it was a statement
btw lads, as a good hint for MT if u should push. remove virulent poisons and put it into wound poison for voidcallers ❤️
switching poisons after 2nd boss is THE deal for them
OR play with an arms
and forget about it
sim bait inc
Dropping TFD and picking up VT likely better in most dungeons
It says best
In a dslice sim maybe?
I’m sure there’s an asterisk on the page or suggestions of swapping talents out
If you just want to copy paste go for it
This is for the sub raid build
I guess it can carry over to m+ in some sense
So Finality by this logic outperforms TFD in longer fights (higher keys)?
I should consider swapping that then
hmm
I mean I do like first dance but it does feel a bit weird with guidon
Tank pulls, dungeon layout/rp, etc all impact things. Most of the talents choices are extremely minimal. You’ll lose more dps by holding CDs too long than you ever will swapping TFD for finality or finality for TFD.
havent been using it for a while and havent missed it at all. i only swap pp to wm for st.
Pretty sure my dps is pretty good for the gear I got in m+, altho I should probably use puzzle instead of guidon, but I hate that trinket so much
im tryin it rn in a 15 skyreach. tfd sims 3k higher tho
nothing is going to take you from 150k to 180k. all our talents are very minimal.
incorrect. elusiveness takes me to 150k because i forget i have cheat death then i die to a feetal
It takes you to 125k


I switched TFD to finality cause fights are lasting longer now anyways
And I got puzzle out of my bank unfortunately

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.
is there any way (now that weakaura's are gone) to have an audio queue play when i reach max combo points?
VT + finality are good if your tank never let you leave combat 
Tbh it's often times not even tank's fault, I get hit by random shit while I'm miles away from the mobs sometimes and I have no idea why or how
Let me drag this single mob at 15% Health into the next pack
I've even had a mob walk up to me while I'm in stealth and hit me in the face with a melee

Or I have tricks up and I SS on a mob and it hits me before going on tank
Like excuse me
Let me tell you why:caster mob can automatically lock onto stealthy rogue

Another amazing design decision
I'm fairly certain this is a bug that only appeared in 12.0
My fav one was when I was super far away from the tank in stealth and randomly I get hit by a spell I didn't even see flying
Kinda crazy how this is basically a class concept breaking bug and they're not even mentioning it anywhere or anything in patch notes
It’s new with midnight. Basically as soon as you’re in combat, even if stealthed, you’re targetable.
they came for shroud, now they're finally coming after stealth
just delete this dog shit class already blizzard
Is the dungeon slice sim like actually good for simming puzzle box vs guidon you guys think? I'm trying to find a way to tell myself puzzle isn't just better in m+

Just tell yourself you're using Guidon for boss dmg
Do we know if bonus rolls in 12.0.5 will account for items you have already looted from the Boss/dungeon
Items that you have looted outside of the bonus rolls*
I have no idea but that would be kinda crazy no
Kind of counterintuitive to not work that way but
As they already have a knock out system implemented
I put puzzle back in the box bro 2.6k they can keep it LMAO
What if you looted an item already but then sold it or whatever because at the time you didn't want it, and then you can't bonus roll for it again, also how can you keep track of that
Idk why you would sell a mythic track item, but blizzard has a track record of what you have looted.
Oh it's only for mythic track?
No
I might have sold something as assas that I now want on sub
Why would you bonus roll for a hc item anyway
You mentioned dungeon
I wouldn't mind bonus rolling for omission so I'm done having to farm xenas all day every day
M+ 10 bonus rolls gives myth track equal to vault
I wish you luck rolling on that loot pool
Holy shit
the way the bonus rolls work is that you will eventually get it
If the knockout system works with current aquiered items ill snatch myself a Mythic Gaze first week
Wait shit yeah I got champ gaze but we've done mythic this week
So I kill the boss and I can just bonus roll for gaze?

lol most of the highest IO sub rogues are specced into sin on rio right now
@lilac stag about that time
i know it's my fault for going on reddit but holy shit, mage going "rogue utility is super underrated" really gets my gears grinding
This is a troll post right
BLACK POWDERRRR
idk
we're so back boys we got AoE dmg
we don't even have the best aoe
also blizz will see mage is not in the current meta
and buff them
goes without saying
as is tradition
the meta right now doesn't mean anything
This is DSlice sim, right?
Yeah it is, with my personal buffs only that I always have up
well buffs I mean consumables
i laughed
That's why i said, tell yourself you keep guidon for boss dmg 😄
then you just sim the ST xD
No need I've maximum coped already
Rubix cube back in the bank
Made my trinkets great again
We here at sub rogue rage cope central take pride in our ability to make others laugh
for some reason, Guidon + Raid Talents sim higher for me for DSlice than M+/Puzzlebox XD
Surely a bug tho, there's no way
I'm gonna be real I think the sims are hallucinating from time to time or something
My DPS estimate from dungeon slice also doesn't really make sense
I did 146k overall last m+ I did
I've been eye-balling Sub this whole tier
specific number isn't the indicator i follow, but usually gear-wise
but yeah, been eyeballing sub this tier
Yeah of course but like it's always about 130k-145kish overall so like at least 22ish minutes of a whole ass dungeon
And then I sim 6 min dslice and it's 109k
I don't think random party buffs are gonna give me 21k dps
But maybe I'm just bad at math idk
it is what it is
I found a ring that's a bigger upgrade for me than hero omission
Quick pug in and out before reset what do you guys think
Yeah, don't look at the actual number, its more for gear (altho even that is not as reliable this tier imo),
this is my Assa sim for DSlice (self buffs only):
And this is a +16 MT
its has so many factors for M+, how tank pulls, mechanics etc.
i didn't play it on anything under a +14 tho
prio dmg is just really good
Eh I just didn't like assa, cooldowns are so long, at least on sub I feel alive
Also helps that i've reached 40% crit with the M+ setup (40% crit with oils/flask)
Sick
I just got 13s resilient and tried assa it’s pretty fun but I need new gear 🙁
But for sub, sims are totally out of wack for me
Yeah my itemisation would make it kinda loco for me to go back to assas
And I'm mainly into raiding I guess
Also I hate puzzle too much
And this is my eye-balled Sub with flask/oils
But on assa it's just too good
i also have 289 puzzlebox, so im probably using that on sub too if i play it xD
Ya I hate puzzle too
My puzzle is only champ and so is my guidon/gaze so yeah
They're actually my lowest ilvl items lol
no luck in the weekly?
Cuz i got Myth Guidon in vault, and then weekly quest gave me HC Guidon 
Weekly hasn't given me much of anything good
I got myth helm (that I catalysted) and myth occlusion (my curse) from my vaults
And prolly like hero gloves before that I can't remember
I need omission so bad like it's actually ridiculous, because I'm also not at haste breakpoint
gearing wasn't as big of an issue for me, even though im a solo player that only pugs
i feel like i just kept 90% of the drops i got
and could eventually balance out and shuffle items
i was rolling with the 2-set rings, but now i've swapped void for the MT one
Ignore the boots the sim is just telling me to get more haste basically
i don't trust anything for sub anymore
that's why i just try to be as close to 700 haste as possible and the rest as much mastery as i can
I've also been running PoS for the belt but also no luck there
Ye I might look through item restore
I'm thinking of crafting 285 haste/mastery belt on reset
I think I do a ring
I don't wanna craft ring because it's so cringe to have myth occlusion and then crafted ring
also target farm - i farmed Nexus/MT/AA for a while to get all the rings
for context, i have 3 crafts
- Dagger (haste/mastery)
- Boots (crit/haste)
- Neck (crit/haste)
but i did that because i wana use them in all 3 specs
so if you're really missing some stats and you wanna swap specs for certain stuff, maybe recraft some if it won't brick your characters
offhand since I got hungering victory mythic mainhand
I had already crafted the bracers cause I was assas a few weeks back
i know, but i mean if you wanna swap to assa at some point
especially if u get to Paladins with your guild and you're not benched
Yeah ofc
I mean I'm prolly not gonna get benched I'm pretty high up on our dps meters every time
Think I'm doing pretty good
But I need haste so bad man it's so ridiculous
without oils
I knew i'd be playing all 3 specs, so i did general crafts (crit/haste), which WAS a disadvantage for the first weeks, but now i've accumiliated enough gear
Bro I am telling you this myth occlusion thing screwed me
better continue the Nexus farm my guy
if you're on EU, i can trade rings, if you wanna get into some +10s to blast 'em
Please kill me
The rest of the runs except PoS is literally my guildies/friends begging me to do anything else
I've done runs where EVERYONE in the party was PREPARED AND WILLING to trade me the ring on drop
not everyone 
At this point I feel like they're as desperate as I am for it to drop
You're lucky you're so hairy man I'd spa- nvm
I am yeah
But I should prolly sleep soon I've been telling myself to go sleep since 3:30 am
And was farming m+ all day
LOL
You know how it says this reset right
Well I only got back in my country from a trip to croatia ON SATURDAY
11 XENAS RUNS THIS RESET
i can do a quick one right now, up to you
I appreciate it but I'll pass I just can't
My brain fried

Luck is a skill
I think I used it all up when I played league
I did the gacha thing once for the luls
First try I got Spirit Blossom Morgana
