No premed is the worst part

tribal blade
#

was thinking about just playing premed

#

but losing 1 strike apex every dance

#

oh wait no

#

only 2 during blades

#

solo dances don't matter

#

wonder what the % diff of running premed vs no premed is

keen dome
#

I would be curious to know and i imagine we shall know soon

short radish
#

i do not want to lose premed Sadge

tribal blade
#

i can imagine people will just run premed if it's that annoying

#

but it only really affects the opener

#

not running premed

potent summit
#

Is it a bug tho or does blizz want that Interaction with premade and apex?

#

Premed*

tribal blade
#

pretty sure it's a bug

#

premed has a few bugs going on

#

!bugs

wicked joltBOT

#

Sorry to be that guy, but does the trickster changes make outlaw/sub competitive in higher m+? I’m playing assa on 17+ right now

keen dome
#

I assume it'll make Sub a lot more competitive in higher M+, esp in very big pulls

tribal blade
#

maybe it's not a bug, don't see it on the list

keen dome
#

Since we're gaining a ton more damage and our burst profile back(ish)

keen dome
#

From Eleems pin:

tribal blade
#

and we gain burst niche back

#

so maybe

#

but sin has a much more ethical dmg profile

#

so hard to say

keen dome
#

Yeah

verbal kelp
#

Yeah, I’ve been enjoying sin a lot on high keys

#

Insane overall and great prio dmg

tribal blade
#

no matter what sub will be better in keys

keen dome
#

prio dmg my beloved...

tribal blade
#

just don't know if it'll overtake sin

grim wasp
#

To pad meters sub still better?

wraith sphinx
#

we're so back

keen dome
potent summit
#

Playing 18 at the Moment with 3610 rio and it might still not be enough. I mean you can argue if with the rotten you have enough prio dmg

tribal blade
keen dome
#

Well, yeah, but see the latter part

#

feeling i'm being mean!

tribal blade
potent summit
#

That is the plan

tribal blade
#

which could be a play for more prio

potent summit
#

When I Talk about that

copper ravine
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
tribal blade
#

it feels kinda bad striking in aoe over storm

#

unless you're proccing apex

potent summit
#

Yes it is. But it has to be done in high keys if I want to Play sub

keen dome
#

I'm going to ask a dumb question I should know the answer too but does pulling a boss in a raid reset our combies

#

Because I have a plan on how to get around the premed change in the opener

tribal blade
#

same with starting a key

keen dome
#

Damn

#

So we can't pre-game combies

tribal blade
#

because whenever i want to get snd up before a key starts with a turnip you have to snd before the dome ends

#

or else you lose the CP

keen dome
#

Yeah

tribal blade
#

i can forsee this being an issue if delaying cds on pull causes a cascading effect on the entire fight

keen dome
#

Yeah

#

Curious to see how it works out

tribal blade
#

but most bosses you lust on pull

#

so should work out

keen dome
#

Is there any you don't this tier / M+..

#

Alleria?

#

I guess

tribal blade
#

actually there's a bunch of raid bosses you don't lust on pull haha

#

nvm

keen dome
#

Alleria and uh.. Baloren and Lura?

tribal blade
#

yeah those for sure

keen dome
#

I can't think of any M+ bosses at my key level (14ish) though

#

Oh I guess, lmao

#

Lura again

tribal blade
#

i think it should be fine for M+ bosses because you'll have snd rolling

keen dome
#

Yeah

tribal blade
#

also you can sit on CP leftover from previous pulls

#

we now have a reason to not cast snd between pulls in keys

#

i'm 3 points off 3400 now

#

timed 17 caverns today

misty tinsel
#

Is there any bug on log for sub please ?

tribal blade
#

not bad for casually pushing

tribal blade
wicked joltBOT
misty tinsel

hollow spear
#

What's more likely? That they nerf the cloud because they didn't think through what the impact is going to be or that they fix premed?

tribal blade
#

and probably lose all faith in the devs

chrome palm
#

low key

#

wouldnt be surprised if they do something extremely cringe

#

like remove the stacking DR

#

and the crit

#

hope not

short radish
tribal blade
tribal blade
short radish
#

even if this does turn out to be good

short radish
#

the main problems of rogue still exist

#

okay sure we get our burst niche back

vale pine
#

you completel dismiss sht

short radish
#

but it's not like we're unique in "burst damage"

tribal blade
#

we do get the bandaid fix of gaining niche back

#

and more dmg

vale pine
#

5 backstabs is never reallistic

tribal blade
#

but the core problem still here

short radish
#

ye

#

entirely beholden to tuning

vale pine
#

i don't think much will be done

hollow spear
#

It fixes a problem that we have (low burst relative to where we come from) and doesn't buff us by too much, so it makes sense

#

The extra DR is quite strong tho, so that makes me think

vale pine
#

we arn't that good statistically

#

and our cleave is not insane after the buffs

tribal blade
#

i think it's more of an issue on outlaw

#

than sub

#

with their 60% uptime

hollow spear
#

We will sim 117k or so, while uhdk sims at 150k (?)

vale pine
#

ye

tribal blade
#

sub's uptime of cloud cover is like ~22%

chrome palm
#

this is where a 6% st buff to sub and 10% to outlaw look interesting

#

in terms of boss damage its a big shot upwards

short radish
#

yeah like in terms of acutal ST damage

chrome palm
#

which is very important on beloren/lura

short radish
#

we were never terrible

lilac stag
#

At this point it’s extremely good on an extremely mid (burst) spec. With some of the other class adjustments and burst, ~4% (what it was for me) in ST isn’t going to all of the sudden turn me into a meta god.

vale pine
#

still has bad timings

#

laura idk

#

could just play outlaw

#

the boss has no hard dps checks

chrome palm
#

lura sub is already very high boss damage

#

as ds

lilac stag
#

We’re still melee in ranged raid garf

chrome palm
#

i am excited to try outlaw on lura

#

i think outlaw could top lura st, if other classes arent being mega buffed

vale pine
#

possible ye

grand hemlock
#

we got anyone here who performs high parsing on 16s?

vale pine
#

we have some high key pushers in here iirc

#

but most of high keys currently switched to assasssination unless i missremember

short radish
#

i wonder if the buffs are enough to make a swap back to sub

vale pine
#

probably are

short radish
#

but its not like any of our damage profile is changed

#

except more damage

vale pine
#

the problem is

short radish
#

like its still no more prio than before right?

vale pine
#

we still suck on certain bosses

short radish
#

sorry

#

swap back to sub for m+

vale pine
#

ye

#

i mean e.g. seat

#

3 boss fight won't be good for sub

short radish
#

ye

#

but then last boss crank

#

the ol play half key as sin strat?

vale pine
#

last boss for sure

#

well

#

maybe just play outlaw

tribal blade
#

there's actual waiting before going to last boss

vale pine
tribal blade
#

so just end 3rd boss

#

TP out, swap sub

#

but i dunno where you enter when you rezone back in

#

if you have to run all the way back it's not worth

short radish
#

its like 50 seconds of RP

#

surely worth

vale pine
#

too bad you can't cheese it with acantina key anymore

tribal blade
#

is it 50? might be enough time

tribal blade
short radish
#

idk im making that number up

#

cant you do it with housing tp?

#

or that also fixed

tribal blade
#

no idea

grand hemlock
#

are there major changes between sub and assa gear? is the damage that different atm?

vale pine
tribal blade
vale pine
#

rest of the stats in mastery and crit

tribal blade
#

or more similar than before

grand hemlock
vale pine
#

so if you meet the haste requirements

grand hemlock
#

this is my current setup

vale pine
#

you should be fine

short radish
#

basically all the rogue specs will right?

#

what does outlaw want

#

haste to a certain point as well

#

then crit/vers?

vale pine
#

probably wants a lot more vers than sub

#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
tribal blade
#

outlaw is about to become invincible again

vale pine
#

not even that much

#

hmm

#

seems like they want crit

somber fog
vale pine
#

no

short radish
vale pine
#

its basically a breakpoint

#

to have shadow dance extension and secret cooldown line up well

#

which we basically have certain points

#

700 - 800 is the first

#

then we have the next one on 1100

#

next one somewhere around 1600+

#

the 1100 is worth it on deathstalker

#

tho we won't play deathstalker

somber fog
vale pine
#

so 700-800 is the mark to hit

candid pebble
#

i'm curious why people ask for this ilvl when it's the max u can get from NM?

vale pine
#

but ye

#

700 is perfect

lilac stag
barren haven
# vale pine 800 makes 2nd secret in blades better align, which is why its good if you don't ...

Regarding this topic:

I’m at 833 even (I don’t have guidon in this scenario) and it doesn’t fit well (at least on target dummies). It’s like in the last second of shadow blades.

Is it ok like this, because the clones won’t be within sb or do I have to stack more haste?

Other option is to go with 700ish haste and change myth track puzzle box with veteran track guidon (only version of guidon I have).

Sims say veteran guidon, but its sounds just ridiculous

vale pine
#

slightly above 800 is fine, just don't go way above

#

without guidon its roughly 800

somber fog
# vale pine 700 is perfect

maybe i'm too slow or i do something wrong, because with 712 haste i can't land the 2nd st, with 754 haste instead i can

vale pine
#

with or without guidon?

somber fog
#

without

barren haven
vale pine
#

without guidon 800 is better because you can land it more reliable

lilac stag
#

700 only works with guidon

barren haven
#

Ye, I mean with 833 haste still

vale pine
#

secret cooldown cdr is rly cool, right

#

not confusing at all

lilac stag
#

2 button spec

#

fyi

vale pine
#

I am joking, most long term subelty players don't rly like how haste is integrated in the spec

#

it feels not well worked out

barren haven
#

It’s just annoying tbh

lilac stag
#

I’ve spent more time explaining how a 2 button spec works than I did all of TWW

barren haven
#

But when everything works out it feels rly good

vale pine
#

If we go into detail, the haste breakpoints exist now because of the combination of dance extension and secret cdr

#

but whats even worse is the haste extension

#

which should be just round to the next natural number

#

so if its 6.3 sec dance

#

just make it 7 sec

lilac stag
#

If Sectech was 2 charges and no CDR, I don’t think anyone would have an issue with the dance extension

vale pine
#

having this incremental small .x values

#

just means we need to be super careful to not lose a gcd

#

and macro spells

#

just punishing for everyone

#

rounding it to the next natural number would give you a lot of extra time to fit the last global

lilac stag
#

but charges are confusing apparently

vale pine
#

so you would not need the problems

vale pine
#

let me secret every dance

lilac stag
#

My concern is it’s always there and less thinking.

vale pine
#

I mean, you would still need to manage the 2nd secret cast

lilac stag
#

If they go that route goremaws or a new ability needs to be addressed

vale pine
#

so can balance its cooldown

#

but in terms of thinking

#

what do you need to think atm

#

most things are just annoyances due to bugs or early deisgn problems

#

i don't think people are like

lilac stag
#

You’re still making sure you’ve got both ready for SC

vale pine
#

"oh right, i think using storm + dance in a macro is a greeat optimization"

#

"oh, i don't get my aa during dance at the start because of premed, surely feels great"

barren haven
#

I dunno for me the only thing that cause me headaches is that super crisp 2nd sechtech without guidon.

I can’t seem to make it work with pure haste all the time

vale pine
#

"oh ye, i missed my last gcd in dance because of lag, valuable design"

lilac stag
#

until they actually address stealth / dance code clusterfuck it’s going to be ugly

vale pine
#

"oh, i can't fit 2nd secret in blades because i miss 30 haste"

#

even the aa optimization

#

all of it comes from deisgn problems

#

e.g. premeditation can just give you sht stacks instead of cp

#

problems solved with aa

lilac stag
#

I’m surprised there’s no gain with changes to striking to keep AA rolling

vale pine
#

wdym

lilac stag
#

The AA optimization just being good during dance vs only the SC

#

Premed - no idea wtf they are doing with that. Doing think they have one either.

somber fog
#

the thing that with the new changes we need to backstab to 7 cp in the opener make me feel so bad lol

dark roost
dark roost
#

of course we do

#

thanks. just read it, "you cannot proc any shadow clones from a Shadowstrike with Premeditation up," this actually explains so much

#

i thought id be going nuts for about a month when i see the visual just disappear for shadow clones when i press dance

vale pine
#

so ye

vale pine
#

(backstabbing before the use of shadow dance)

somber fog
vale pine
#

should work on any incoming healing, but i am not 100% sure

#

always a chance of a bug somewhere

raw frost
#

They only change 1 hero talent xd

winter niche
#

Hi guys, been reading this thread and its very helpful so thank you. How much would u say your rogue sims on patchwerk? Like what would be a good number to strive for in sims with like 750 haste in order to have a good character to start trying to push parses?

raw frost
#

Why we should drop premediation

#

Nothing changes basically .

winter niche
#

and also is it okay to flask haste to get to that 700-800 range?

short radish
#

you do whatever you need to do to get to 700 or 800

short radish
#

parsing kinda not possible if your gear sucks

winter niche
#

im 275 and i sim 95k patchwork

#

should be pretty good right?

short radish
#

yeah

#

a good sense check of yourself

#

is doing a sim against the dummy

#

(not patchwerk)

#

and then doing the same fight time

#

and comparing

raw frost
#

compared to other classes

#

i think SUB ST is bad

short radish
#

if youre the same as the sim

raw frost
#

in raid at least

short radish
#

then youre playing fine

short radish
#

it's average/slightly above

#

the problem is that the raid is not ST

winter niche
#

Haven't been able to get my hands on a gaze or guidon, so im running puzzle box and the trinket from skyreach. Am i crazy or is guidon just INSANE because of the extension of SD and reduction on STECH>

short radish
#

and yeah guidon is really strong because of that

#

alas I too am a puzzle box gamer

winter niche
#

first week on heroic I had an average parse of 90 something and now im lucky if I get above 50 lol

#

and then I look at vods and logs and I don't really see much im doing wrong, but they have gaze and guidon

short radish
#

i mean you can still parse without guidon

#

im a pbox gamer and i still can get 99

raw frost
#

ye all people are padding like crazy

#

😄

short radish
#

granted i have m gaze though 🤡

winter niche
#

ye true i don't really pad

short radish
#

though padding is probably like

#

15 percentile points at most

#

you can play entirely full ST on all the "pad" bosses

#

and still purple parse

winter niche
#

up until today I had a 263 saptor paw trinket

#

that probably didn't help

short radish
#

yeah that's also shit

#

try out the crucible trinket in sims

#

make sure its fully upgraded

winter niche
#

that only works in the voidstorm area no?

short radish
#

negative

#

works everywhere

winter niche
#

hmm

raw frost
#

the chimera trinket is really god ;d

#

and really hard to get

winter niche
#

and you think 263 of that would be better than 276 Prism?

raw frost
#

and witohut it the dmg is really meh

short radish
#

(make sure it's fully upgraded)

lilac stag
#

Tuesday bump. Live is 98.5

winter niche
#

can u show ur gear?

tribal blade
#

the fun thing about it being bursty is it can net out to be even more dps

#

when applied in real world

lilac stag
winter niche
#

i need to get me one of those guidons

short radish
lilac stag
#

Gaze sends it close to 108

tribal blade
winter niche
#

whats ur ilvl?

lilac stag
#

278.3

raw frost
#

sims are not even close to real numbers

raw frost
#

in riad you are moving 24/7

#

doing mechs

#

sims is static doing only dmg

winter niche
#

how in the world are you 10k above me on sim withn 3 ilvl

raw frost
#

no t even close.

winter niche
#

man this game is breaking my brain

lilac stag
#

The img is ptr

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

Live like I said in 98.5

winter niche
#

ahh right

tribal blade
#

usually ends up being better than a flat profile in raid

raw frost
#

is this deathstalker ST ?

lilac stag
#

Fuck no

raw frost
#

trickster then

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

we're in a ranged tier though

lilac stag
#

rip acrobatic

tribal blade
#

I STILL MISS IT

lilac stag
#

everyday

short radish
# lilac stag rip acrobatic

i like how blizzard decided that having 80% of melee classes have minor extended range was bad game design

#

then made unholy a ranged class

tribal blade
#

"we recognize melee having extended range is an issue and are therefore removing it from all melee specs except not really, only the ones we don't actually like get fucked"

short radish
#

also DKs dont have a raid buff so we're going to compensate them with allowing them to ignore all movement mechanics, basically be as tanky as regular tanks passively, and also making at least one fight each tier require their unique ability of gripping mobs

tribal blade
#

while also being irreplacable in keys

#

at the same time

#

DK brings so much to keys it's not funny

short radish
#

yeah hybrid class still exist (DK as off tank in keys when your tank dies)

tribal blade
#

one thing a lot of people who don't push high keys don't get is bringing a dps DK buffs your entire party's healing

#

because the healer doesn't have to worry about healing the DK

raw frost
#

btw the premedaition talent drop is fine ;d

#

if before the pull you already have combo points in reserve :d

#

this way it will do the same job :d

lilac stag
#

Two backstabs in an opener is a trade off I’ll take for MORE BURST

raw frost
#

but arent you styarting with stealth + shadowblade

#

shadowstrike*

tribal blade
#

yes but you'll only gen 2 CP without premed

raw frost
#

only if you dont have secret techniques 5 +

#

if you have , you will be at 7 again froom the start

tribal blade
#

you won't have that when pulling a boss

raw frost
#

well for boss yes xD only in m+

tribal blade
#

M+ it doesn't matter

#

nearly as much

#

because you can gen full CP with 1 storm

raw frost
#

i got it now ,

tribal blade
#

also in keys you can preuse dance to have 2 supercharger ready to go

#

then strike>evis and with 2 CP you'll get snd duration as if you used 5 CP

#

(i really like getting snd up before going into cds in keys)

short radish
#

first hit usually procs all your enchants and shit

#

gaze

#

etc

#

so by getting snd up early

#

but then afking while the pull is being gathered

#

youre wasting your trinet/enchant procs

tribal blade
#

MMM i see

short radish
#

this is entirely feelycraft btw

tribal blade
#

i never noticed

short radish
#

but it makes sense

#

i think

tribal blade
#

i can try with target dummies

#

should be accurate right?

short radish
#

yeah

tribal blade
#

this becomes the question of does the dmg you do during gather matter enough to negate having enchants and gaze up immediately in cds

short radish
#

surely next week, cds matter even more

tribal blade
#

they will for sure

#

honestly dunno

raw frost
#

is this the right opener for dungeons

short radish
#

yeah like i said, its a bit feelycrafty

tribal blade
#

i've never heard that argument for not opening immediately in keys, it's interesting

raw frost
#

i usually go stealth > shadow strike + instant shaodw blades shadow dance SECTEC

#

and from the the usual 😄 powder + storm

tribal blade
#

unless you're afking or the tank is single pulling

raw frost
#

i am just waiting him to gather the mobs

#

basically

tribal blade
#

you wanna wait for the pull to be at least mostly gathered before sending everything

raw frost
#

and thgen going all in

tribal blade
#

i just get into combat asap

#

but who knows maybe fim has real tech

#

for waiting

short radish
#

maybe i'll hit some dummies later

short radish
#

so i might just be thinking abuot nothing

tribal blade
#

enough to notice

#

so you might be onto something

short radish
tribal blade
#

before raid came out and i had just crafted dagger was watching my buffs to see the hunt procs

short radish
#

there's 2 confirmation points

  1. does hitting a mob combat proc everything (probably true)
  2. does getting into combat proc anything (unknown)
tribal blade
#

and it would usually proc insta on getting into combat along with other stuff

tribal blade
shadow urchin
#
#

If you wanna read on procs

short radish
#

nah this isn't as deep as ppm/rppm

#

or maybe it is

#

and im feelycrafting that first hit has really high BLP

tribal blade
#

i tried to read that post but i'm too stupid

short radish
tribal blade
#

i think i unironically have math PTSD

#

courtesy of having an asian mother

shadow urchin
#

All procs are rppm nowadays p much

#

And ye. In outer world blp caps to 100% when you afk

olive canyon
#

I have been watching/looking at a lot of logs, some rogues, even at the higher end seem to not proc apex in dance, with supercharger up etc etc

#

is that amistake or a practical piece of play

short radish
#

okay tl;dr psudo random of 25% chance doesn't mean each hit has a 25% chance

each time the hit happens/dice rolls. It has an ever increasing chance to hit.
e.g. first hit will be 8.4% chance to crit, 2nd hit will be 16.94%

#

so it evens out the proc curve a bit

#

which also means you can kinda game it because every time you don't hit, the chance of your next hit is going to be higher

shadow urchin
#

Some procs are like that like sht(at least used to be, dno if changed)

short radish
#

wow doesn't really use this but the RPPM is similar in the fact that it kinda guarantees you a proc every x time

short radish
shadow urchin
#

Some healer procs were also using deck rng

short radish
#

50% on 3rd hit, 100% on 4th

shadow urchin
#

Not sure if deck rng is still here today

#

Yup

#

But trinks enchants are 99% just rppm

short radish
#

yeah pretty sure most of wow is just rppm these days

#

but that leads back to the whole

#

first hit you generally get the proc

#

because your chance is sitting at almost 100%

#

but because of that, you want to land your proc when youre about to do your damage

shadow urchin
#

Blp is reset on ecounter start and key start

short radish
#

so hitting a mob and pressing snd, getting your 15 second trinket proc but then waiting another 10 seconds for mob to group

shadow urchin
#

So youre not guaranteed on key start or raid boss pull

short radish
#

feels like it loses out to just sitting in stealth until mobs are grouped

#

hmmmm i see

small sleet
ivory leaf
#

is dungeon slice fine for simming m+? or do we do the patchwerk 5 targets thingo?

short radish
#

wait

#

is RPPM based on combat time

#

or just time

shadow urchin
#

Its time since last proc and time since last attempt

#

Then you apply the formula

short radish
#

but is it "combat time" or just "time"

#

because those are 2 different things right

shadow urchin
#

No just time

short radish
shadow urchin
#

With keystart and boss pull resetting it to 0

short radish
#

kk thanks

shadow urchin
#

Basically trinket like gaze has 1.66% to proc per attempt for first 180 seconds of combat iirc.

#

And attempts are you hitting enemies with spells

#

If no proc until 3 mins % goes up due to blp

short radish
#

and the proc chance is going up every second

#

even if you don't attack a mob

#

right?

olive canyon
#

do most of you use vanish in the opener or right after the double dance window ends

short radish
olive canyon
#

i mean use it right after first charge ends as a filler

short radish
#

half the time i treat it as an extra shadowstep tbh

shadow urchin
#

Not attacking does increase chance for the first attempt

#

Then it resets the time since last attempt again

short radish
#

proc_chance = unlucky_streak_prevention *

ON ENTERING RAID BOSS COMBAT:

SET time_since_last_proc_attempt = 0.0

looking at this it's constantly updating every second since Time_since_last_proc

shadow urchin

Yes

#

But in the blp is backed in a "timer" you have to surpass without proc before proc % goes up

tribal blade
short radish
#

yeah the amount of time i press step too many times

#

and look like a fool

shadow urchin
#

As with short enough time it just is lower than the

" So if 1+3*(time_since_last_proc * rppm /60 - 1.5) is higher than 1.0, then that is used as a multiplier, otherwise the multiplier is 1.0 (which changes nothing)."

short radish
#

ahhh right so there's two elements in there

shadow urchin
#

And the factor here is trinkets rppm, gaze being 1

short radish
#

there's the internal RPPM and then there's the BLP modifier

Blp is just part of it

u know why enh never gets nerfed? cos their discord is fucking DEAD and doesnt have 5 turboautists simming every single variable every single hour of the day, THEY FLY UNDER THE RADAR meanwhile our buff gets annoucned and 5 minutes later we got a full scientific paper detailing how its a 11.959185% buff with 0% margin of error u did this to yourselves.

the nerf is because of hubris.... you people were not satisfied with being a strong spec. You had to rub it in everyone's faces. You're autistic, period. HUMAN NATURE dictates that you will be jealous of your neighbour if he has more than you, so why do you RUB all those insane sims in other classes' faces? here and all over wowhead? What did you expect to happen? that shit ass warlocks would look on those numbers and be like "oh good for them"? so fucking dum

tl;dr i've never played with a group of people who push the tempo of a key more than the chinese lol

olive canyon

As a raid leader planning paladins and cosmos next week and wondering hw many melee to bring

#

is not fun

lilac stag
#

In LFG keys, losing casts of dance and blades bad. Very bad. In org big pull group the impact is less when you are holding CDs

hurts my soul every time @grim wasp

1st and 3rd set every intermission

yeah DKs are ranged melee anyway

the other rogue is really good, but not like we are some high end guild, probably will catch more nerfs next week

yeh i watched it

One of the non meme needs for the poison

tribal blade

it's not great, but passable

small sleet
#

i think sub is actually not as bad as logs say it is on that fight

tribal blade
#

uh

#

i dunno about that one

lilac stag
#

cloud cover gonna go hard

tribal blade
#

true cloud cover could change things, but to surpass sin there's no shot

small sleet
#

oh for sure

#

assa is just better

#

but sub is not as unplayable as it looks i think

lilac stag
#

subs advantage is durability.

#

Maybe outlaw shines now

small sleet
#

i think just no one has put up a good log of it

lilac stag
#

On that fight

karmic harbor
#

I'm playing sin and doing like 130k 6mins in

tribal blade
small sleet
#

yeah but like

#

hes doing things really wrong imo

#

like using lights potential pot

#

doesnt make sense

tribal blade
#

nah it's just not good

small sleet
#

thats just worse than reck

tribal blade
#

i'm not the best sub rogue

#

but on heroic i was doing 0 dam

#

and getting beat by everyone

#

while parsing 99

small sleet
#

i griefed the fuck out of our prog kill of paladins this week so unfortunately i cant prove anything

#

but maybe next week i can play like a human and put up a better log

tribal blade
#

it's just not possible for sub right now to be good at cleave

#

whatever dmg you do in burst gets completely negated by not being able to press buttons outside dance

lilac stag
#

There really is no secret sauce for that fight

tribal blade
#

there's nothing you can do yeah

#

fight is also made up of a lot of 2 target

#

which is even worse for sub

#

i dunno if they need to make a talent or change storm so it's 50 energy baseline but if you hit at least 2 targets get refunded 15 energy or something

rain swift
tribal blade
#

fuck it refund 30 energy

small sleet
#

lights potential is not as much dps as reck pot as soon as you hit 2 targets from what i can tell

#

at least for my character

rain swift
small sleet
#

i had a mage theorycrafter in my guild rewrite the rogue apl to use reck pot before guidon instead of after and it immediately became better at 2 targets according to those sims

#

yeah lights potential is better in single target

tribal blade
small sleet
#

no i agree, but like its a combination of things like the fact that the top log is having to single target one boss down for a significant amount of time

#

29 eviscerates on a fight where you'd prefer to use 0

tribal blade
#

could be yeah, but also maybe just because that's the only thing sub can really do that's useful on that fight

small sleet
#

haha dont get me wrong, i dont think we're good on that fight or anything

#

but i just mean its so underplayed on that fight that i dont think we have a good idea of the top end potential

tribal blade
#

no i get you, there could be more dmg there

#

but i think it wouldn't be super significant

#

but who knows

#

maybe we'll see one of the top dogs run it after cloud cover and change the game

rain swift
#

Yeah Im feeling a lot of issues with DPS on my part when Im fighting 2-3 bosses (in m+ u got derelict duo, then dragons and paladins in voidspire, my dps feels awful, every other boss its way better)

tribal blade
#

it would be hilarious if it was a respec to take vigor and tea angle

tribal blade
#

there's very little you can do to keep up with good cleave specs

rain swift
#

yeah, the diff is too big imo like im doing something completely wrong even for my spec, 29 parse on dragons this week, but i had a 95 parse on vorasius

tribal blade
#

dragons parsing is a slight meme

#

it's all about who can pad on the orbs the fastest

opal basalt
#

i think that tank singlehandedly ruined weeklies for me

rain swift
#

that is fair, so dragon parse really doesnt matter then?

opal basalt
#

like how tf am i supposed to not press w anymore

tribal blade
#

that would be impossible to run on higher keys

opal basalt
tribal blade
dry flame
short radish
#

when im tanking

tribal blade
#

i've seen top sub logs for that fight and it's a situation where they have a bunch of people doing 0 damage

opal basalt
#

i fucking LOVED it

tribal blade
#

therefore they can pad more

short radish
dry flame
#

Rights and Enjoyment are not opposite things tbf

rain swift
tribal blade
#

that's one fight where i was not annoyed at the 2 MM hunters in my guild gray/green parsing

#

because i looked at boss/orb/int add dmg

#

and they were topping boss and int add

#

and doing 0 orb

#

so i ain't mad at that

#

but every other fight they are not doing great

olive canyon
#

Im considering just going assassination for dragons too

opal basalt
#

just focus boss

olive canyon
#

the adds get blasted and its big boss dmg

opal basalt
#

could probs go DS sub no?

rain swift
#

MM hunters are either 99 parsers or 0 parsers from everytime Ive played with them, never in between

Hello, everyone, im mostly doing +10-13 keys for mounts and achievs so i was wondering if i should play sub or sin. Sin seems to be higher on lists, but its still kinda low keys and sub might perform better without ramp up time. What would you suggest? Thank you

sharp peak
#

either are fine, play what you like

wet robin
#

After 700 haste, with cloud cover change is crit just all out the best secondary? Or are there some kind of diminishing returns behind the scenes

lilac stag
#

Mastery still will have value, especially in aoe

#

the chances of you hitting DR on either crit or mastery are slim

maiden oar
#

but sins not terrible in low keys especially if ur friends are weak

#

so if u have a preference default to that one

leaden thorn
#

sup all? is this buff a copium and should just go assa or actually good? i dont raid so just from dungeons pov

final gulch

buff is really good

fossil forge
#

is anyone using the draught of rampant abandon

wet robin
#

IMO the cost of missing even one good global, let alone a few over a fight isn’t worth it. Especially in prog, i just go with light’s

#

I suck at seeing the silence circles so maybe some are better with it

you still want the haste breakpoints

keen dome

You still want Mastery for damage, it's just crit has gained value, esp in ST. So you wanna aim for the 700 breakpoint -> mastery + crit

leaden thorn
#

i get that part but i dont understand the more crit the better part as it comes at the cost of the mastery

keen dome
#

Like Eleem says here. in ST, Crit has gained priority over Mastery. So more is gooder, but you don't want to dump all your Mastery for Crit.

We the Bonus roll system coming out next week, and we getting the two rolls (or three if your great vault you take the 6 tokens to convert to third void core bonus roll):

What is the best initial M+10 dungeon to roll on for the Myth pieces, for Sub Rogue?

tidal solstice
#

depends on what slots you have to fill still

vale pine
#

there is no "best" rly

#

if you don't have a good use trinket

#

probably aa

tidal solstice
#

for me its probably nexus cause i need a ring, boots, dagger, chest at mythic still

vale pine
#

if you want in general upgrades

#

and have no mythic pieces

#

probably skyreach

tidal solstice
#

skyreach also good but no rings there

vale pine
#

ye

#

its very dynamic

#

there is no specific best dungeon

mortal snow
#

Mmmk, I'll still look into each dungeon but just was curious the general upgrades part.

shrewd lantern
#

xenas got 2 dead slots for me otherwise good

vale pine
#

because gear levels are not equal for everyone

shrewd lantern
#

dagger and gloves

sullen hare
#

Aa has a couple pieces but our bis list is quite fragmented across the content

tidal solstice
#

like winderunenr could be good but then the loot pool is bloated by 4 bad trinkets

shrewd lantern
#

no such thing as a bis list

#

besides trinkets

vale pine
#

skyreach has most items as useful

#

thats why i suggested it

shrewd lantern
#

for you probably

tidal solstice
#

for me its skyreach and nexus, and windrunner

shrewd lantern
#

it varies by toon

vale pine
#

getting 2 out of the pool, its very likely you kinda guaranteed one good loot

shrewd lantern
#

like skyreach is bad for me personally

#

im gonna roll for xenas rings

#

then maybe box

vale pine
#

i mean

#

for raid you probably want to roll for gaze

sullen hare
#

That's a choice you're welcome to make of course

vale pine

or guidon

im only dumping in raid on cosmos
