i will just yolo 1st boss xD and pray for guidon then
I am sick of this feather trink
oh ye wtf 😄
skyreach has all good items for us holy shit
for tier and weapon pf
and u can also catalyst the gear from skyreach if u feel like
yes
i have 263 champ spo i need parts
for catalysting
will do
and the prism is good as well
World of Warcraft Mythic+ and Raid Loot Overview
Does it roll per boss I’d assume, whereas in m+ you roll the whole dungeon?
Yes
Loot-table wise
Fk yea
how does it work with the socket items?
What
like do you get 2 per week no matter what or do you need to spend the socket currency for the 2 rolls?
The vault one is uncapped
6 merit tokens for the 1 extra roll
From vault
Ye so 1
I do know that
if you picked tokens last week and did not spend wouldnt you get 2 rerolls?
Bonus roll shi is the higher ilv too ya?
since they are unique (12)
Or can stuff that wasn’t rolled be upgraded too
Probably
But tbf
It’s blizz we’re talking abt
No fun allowed, remember?
idk demon hunters seem to be having plenty of fun
But should function that way yes
New spec
New classes/specs are always special for a time
I am having a blast atm 
it is really quite shocking how fun it is considering how few buttons they have
it's a wonder what they can do with well designed systems and interactions
Oh I’m not playing devour
really makes you wonder why we're the way we are when they are capable of making something fun
I just wanted to say I’m having fun
happy for you friend
i'm having fun. it's almost like fun is an individual emotion
having cds out of gcd is the best thing , imo
It’s not, it’s a hivemind thing
Imagine having feelings as an individual & not a hivemind

hey, is it advised to get all of the grim jest pieces for sub?
i'm able to get the chest piece, but not sure if that's advised or to spend the material on another piece
if you are farming xmog, yes (which I am)
weird. and it's not like there isnt room for improvement. overall it's a nice vibe for what the game has turned into
Yea I like tww & current Sub
I enjoy them
Is this still the go to for Sub? - "For Subtlety Rogue, you want to focus getting your 2-set from Masquerade of the Grim Jest Icon Masquerade of the Grim Jest and Venom Casks of the Grim Jest. Because the stats are great, you will also get another tier piece, Blade Holsters of the Grim Jest."
I can’t wait for
to piss off the masses with its visual and maybe we finally get a way to turn down others spell effects.
Oh fr tho
So excited to terrorize the group w it every 90secs 
Also I been dying for Smoke Bomb back so this is like the next best thing flavor wise
I probably answer this my self but guessing sim my char. See where best drops are and roll my bonuses rolls there
I agree just one extra button push between blades. I wouldn’t complain
Cloud of smoke with silence circles spawning underneath. These old eyes suffer
Btw. If we have an item from the boss. Do we know if u still can get that item from bonus roll (item wasn't gained via bonus roll)
Yes, you’ve only get protection if you’ve looted it with the bonus rolls
ty
We have 2 bonus rolls next week and 1 extra if you dont pick item from vault i think
I believe
wait does it actually show for other people 😂
what is our damage profile like? i can sustain 220k dps on 5 targets as assass but cant get anywhere near as sub
sub and sustain in the same sentence 💔
Keep in mind you have execute as assa on those dummies
Which aint gonna be active at all times in practice
that is almost certainly it
thank you. one quick other question - since dance and blades are naturally unsynced - do i hold dance for 10s, or hold blades for 10s?
Yes there are ways, but you can also just wait
You always do sectec on cooldown immediately after dance, this can be macro'd, altho it's wise to also bind dance seperately
AoE or ST doesn't matter
btw how would the gameplay loop change with the upcoming changes?
does it stay roughly the same? (just no premed?)
Exactly the same besides no premed
I am ready for another week of vault disappointment
The only thing premed changes is the opener
how do you play the second boss in caverns with the adds you need to cross? just wait at the boss until it is near enough to the other one? run out and "steer" it? both feels weird for me
ik, but when blades is coming up ive got a choice to do dance+sectech, or hold both for blades in 10
do i send the dance+tech, or hold both for blades
obv if i send, blades is going to sit on cd for 10s - so its just what one
Hold
on reset it'll be even better to hold at that point
i thought this because of the power of smoke bomb
because we're gonna have much more dmg in blades
but obv im not a sim
Always sync cds.
Always double dance during blades
yeah im always double dancing
tbh very often u can (imo) send dance+stec even in those scenarios esp on end of packs because u will have everything up on the next ones due to normal downtime
- sending a couple more dance+stecs overall
Why does PTR sim tell me to run even lower haste than before? 
crit values more now, maybe you have enough haste to fit a 2nd sectec into blades? I think you dont need more haste if thats the case, but I can be wrong
nope, can't be it. I'm on 690ish right now
and it wants to cut 160 from my ring to the crit mastery ring. fucking weird
didnt check today but raidbots doesnt seem to be on par with the 700 haste stuff (with guidos and after oils for example). always suggest throw haste for mastery
that's because the sims never have 700 haste.
yeah so just dont mind those
yes i know, but now it seems to rate haste even lower
what does even lower mean
because the sims before .5 sims had haste at 616
and that's been there
the robot is also a robot who can hit buttons faster than a 32 year old dad of 3
that's correct
as the new blades buff a lot shadowstrike, would it be worse it to use vanish during blades between the 2 dances for one more shadowtrike ?
Happy Cloud Cover Day!
changing that ring for example would result in under 600
@hazy breach is it still going to be worth holding the second dance until 2 sec on sectec in blades
Surely we just send the dance right

never was
we were already sending the dance 8 sec before the end of blade to have its full duration under blade
Oh really
we've always sent second dance with 8 seconds left
I swear I remember reading some 2 sec sectec thing
I remember it was a thing in early TC yes
Ok well then it don’t matter tyty
wowhead and icy pages gonna be updated tomorrow with talents and other improtant info right?
i know it's pinned just asking
¯_(ツ)_/¯
!blades
Trickster Shadow Blades Optimization:
During Shadow Blades, line up your second Shadow Dance with the last 8 seconds of Shadow Blades instead of using them back-to-back. This allows you to fit another Secret Technique into Shadow Blades+Shadow Dance. It will not be supercharged but thats ok in this scenario.
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
The sectech thing was insanely hard to do well (as you also want to use the dance at the end of your guidon) whereas this sims the same but is infinitely easier
wowhead has cloud cover in rec talents so should be updated
same with IV
Ye think both of them have been updated already, or will be in time for the patch hitting NA
doesn't it also affect the vanish for free 7 cp ?
Well yeah
would we use vanish during blade but between the 2 dances then for 1 extra shadowtrike ?
oh nice so just strike into backstabs until full cp?
i appreciate your enthusiasm
tho its a small price to pay for 6% buff
i take it ngl
how come we don't take PV with the new Cloud Cover? Still not worth even with the ginormous strikes?
more burst also means
more egg dmg on beloren
less time spent on that horrible boss
i feel like my eyes are getting fried after progging 4 hours mythic beloren
is there a way to include the boes into the droptimizer, or is it only possible by manually adding?
Well you have to give up improved fw, which is like 8% on everything physical
Ye I'm stupid - just realized PV can't be traded for Veiltouched
so cooked how it's a bottom row talent
drop apex 4 for PV 
I actually looked at that and its like a 7% loss lol
Why does the macro use Shadow Dance first and then Shadow Blades?
because it doesnt matter as long as sectec is last
Number Go Up Day is a good day 
so how bad is sub now doing in the raid setup. with asa and outlaw becoming meta suddenly
Da Fuq
ah yes
the 3 outlaw players define the meta
alr i will concide the outlaw isnt right looking at logs. but assa is doing allot beter now.
sin has been doing well all season if you're looking at boss damage

Ye it is not good!
assa is bis on paladins and was on beloren, but with changes I think sub will be better on beloren at least
was curious about how it would look having clones on big strikes in cloud cover but alas they are not carrying the load lol
even with Rotten
hoping to see the classic wowhead "how much % you gain this patch" post and our 5-6% confuses people when our single target burst goes to the moon
"rOgUe Op PlEaSe NeRf" ~ a guy that got one shot by a sub in pvp
Ho man relax
and had to hold cd for it
It's just assa
i was calm for a second while writing that "b"
anyone else using M33kauras, do conditions just not work in combat or what
Most things can't work
ye kinda figured
It's all secrets
tried messing with it the other day and it worked for just basic cdm reskinning etc but any actual work was broken as soon as I got into combat
even escalating blade stacks on the aura went away as soon as they updated in combat, was annoying
was hoping to full swap off arc
could do sound alerts for all kinds of stuff but had to do it as an invisible text aura lol
Unless you code stuffs to hook onto the CDM you can't track auras with weak auras
oof
@warm marlin I need the feels for Paladin prog. Assa or Outlaw now? 
Outlaw is super fun
70 hours maintenance now, uhu!
Depends how NA beta test goes
8 more hours woo
so so
just wish KS did damage
Im just glad sub is going to have situational burst again, excited to see by how much
baby steps lmao
what does that have to do with killing spree
nothing
just gigachadding skill
If you can play outlaw it would be better after buff I think
For sure
But it's harder to play than assa especially on that boss
So idk kinda depends right
outlaw def theoretically better
if your strat has you doing the ranged soak like me maybe not
maybe mega cope but it kinda feels like assa is even more uptime dependent than sub
you don't really run out of energy ever on 3 targets so you're losing globals any time you're forced out of melee on that fight
Ye well
Don't have that many melees
That you need ranged soaks
Dk and paladins can do it also
i wasnt in first day so a healer stole my spot in the melee soak
we only played fury rogue as 2 melee
Gege
like 0.8% or something
have sims on raidbots been updated for the new changes?
its ok honestly, like 3 backstebs
when is NA reset? I dont see vault screenshots so I am assuming still not live ? 
8 hours from now
8 hours from now
😡
i was lowkey gonna skip school to play wow
imagine a game who makes 12 hours maintence every month
but
lolol
would like to see the droprate of the upgrade cores
is it bad or good? wasnt playing legion
well, then I am foked as last 11 runs I dropped no manaflux 
could just as easily be guaranteed, will find out later
Can play it decently well. Just have a heroic weapon. I figure I’m there for atrophic just rather get as much dps out as possible.
probably going to vault as outlaw this week
so this voidcore thing, do you need to kill a boss on mythic to roll on the myth quality bonus roll or any difficulty?
Mythic
so worthless if you don'treally raid mythic cool
don't need anything on hc
can also get 2 additional myth pieces from M+ per week
litterly just need mythic gear at this point, but i'm not on the mythic roster because... rogue lol
you can get good myth track loot from m+
Get two m+ pieces then
Quick lil 3 boss (4 if your group is decent) pug then?
i have hero track gaze/guidon and myth track puzzlebox
and crown/lura neck
Pug first boss mythic
so then you can get 3x myth track from vault and rolls
Ez clap
Sounds like you're pugging first boss and chimerus and rolling them then
with new system
how bad is pug chim myth?
Depends, if you start your own group and emphasise the correct things/take a bit of time to form, quite easy
We 1 pulled it this week in a pug, some guy invited who was "5/9 myth" but he kinda stunk, so I just told people not to kick essences, put markers down for where to stack in intermission start and then it was easy
Lets think a bit more carefully about our wording the next time
jeez my guild can't even kill it organized lol, our ranged don't know what an interrupt button is
Just invite people at 275+ who've killed it 1-2 times before and you're golden p much
DK/Warlock in each group, tell em what to do, ez
its ok
if u wanna carry on add part tell rl to put u on group 1 so u can soak the last one before the skips after intermission
adds have extra absorv
make sure have 2 dks , one each group, and use numb poison to delay cast from adds
i was being force to use attroph, kept saying i should use mind numb. since our lock always forgets tongues
use numb and thtats it
i'll have to see if i'm in raids this week, if not i'll go pug it and hopefully get lucky
rage raid leader and get aura
the dungeon rolls are really strong
the one night i was in on our chim pulls, our normal rl wasn't there so it was a bit of a cluster fk
numb + tongues
not numr or tongues
is sub still looking top for both m+ and raid?
better then assa , but not sure if better then outlaw
i think our only talent change is just the 1 hero talent right?
go for sub supremacy
so uh oh outlaw time?
´´just´´ but insanely damage increase
have another talents
check pins
.
i wonder if they are doing any tuneing we don't know about
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Why would they
They posted a massive itemized patch list, its just a .5 patch these usually run late
idk sometimes there is more tuneing in the official notes
can't wait for raid time to be delayed like 40 minutes because of elvui like it is every patch lol
where are all the class changes i don't see them on wowhead or on the browser
imagine they fixed deepening shadow for it to be instant...but I guess that is too much from indie company
or made it so you could macro guidon and it had no delay lol
no premed is gonna feel weird af
Wonder if sub is gonna leapfrog Sin again in keys
in ST for sure
why does this ST build have numbing poison instead of atrophic?
To numb us from these questions
xD
It's so you slow the attack and casting speed of your enemies so you can reply in the rogue discord while doing keys

is there any notification on how long maintenence is for EU
realm time
lol, n1, but fr, why, its a ST build
To numb us from these questions
Damn I guess you'll have to switch that one talent then
thank you
xD
with the changes right?
yeah thats after changing the apl as well because i got the same result
yeah
with updated cloud cover, no finality, +rotten+pv
3/4 apex
and you've checked the example rotation that it's not doing something funky? I remember playing without apex 4 completely messed with sims before
hi guys i wonder if 659 haste is enough i use my shadow dance twice befre shadowblade run out so i dont know need add bit more haste ?
Does the rotation really change with today's changes?
Are your Sectech clones in blades? That’s how you know
it went from -20% to -7% after fixing it up a bit
Wait, that sounds awful lol
apex 4 doesn't have any specific calls in updated apl
How does that look?
the example rotation looked normal to me
ye same
if you dont edit it at all it will just spam strike to activate aa4 when you arent talented into it
not very good
exactly that's what I remembered
oh ye I took that part out lol
It looks like backstabbing until 7 cp
in aoe you will just storm to max instead
ST
ye both wowhead and iv are updated for 12.0.5
Is there a summary of what changed? I'm not seeing a before and after

Dope ty
Are people mostly running puzzle box in keys?
I love the li'l guidon icon
Just snuck it's way on there
they should really double the chance of this in blades
Only poor people without guidon or Chinese gamers pulling the entire dungeon
im poor ppl
I have both, but had been using guidon so I didn't know
ty
its already 105% at max cp
If you’re running organized pulls, pb likely better. For the majority guidon better
ye but in blades it's only 3*15% for shadowstrike no?
Holding blades kinda bad
its effectively pulling max cp from stacks bc of apex4
ye x% chance to giga crit, 45% chance to proc an AA strike clone, 15% to proc a WM clone, and all those independently crit as well

!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Chat what should I do with the mastery flasks I bought 2 weeks ago
oh ye but if you wanna make it proc on strike
sell them to devourer dhs

ye if you wanna make it just proc on strike you gotta retool a bit
I'm actually not even made about BS until 7
maybe I sell my soul and go full crit/vers after 700 haste for unholy strikemaxxing
I can pop my haste trinket during that instead of before the fight
Can the voidforge be empowered pre-raid?
For them big upgrades
the shards are giga easy to get
Yeah I'm 5/5
just do delves or lfr for shards
Yeah you can just do bountiful delves
or quick m+
And for the big upgrade you don't do anything special?
Just that content and bam, bigger dagger?
No one knows that currency
they drop from the same stuff as manaflux apparently
but the rate is currently unknown
plus preys
but fuck those
I’ve gotten two manaflux charges 😂
rip
Have you tried playing the game?
I’ve done like 20 keys since I unlocked 4 set
drop rate kinda all over the place so you just gotta game
So no
Delves seem solid.
my main rogue has looted like 14 and another of our raiders has done 80 keys since 4p and gotten 3 total charges
Easy resources.
Oups, fixed
20 keys is nothing
ye early on one of our mages got 4-5 drops before I got 1 and we got 4pc the same time and were running the same amount of content
i hit the 8 cap the first week i got 4p
Will Sub be stronger than Assa?”
I think I've used 2x and am at 4/8 currently
2 1/2 weeks of vaults? W/e.
Do you delves, weekly world, preys, heroic, mythic, etc it all adds up
Yes I’ve also been maxing delve slots and doing raid
It’s like farming legendaries in legion. 
i've been sitting on the 8 cap for over a week, just nothing left to catalyst
I just think 10 delves, 12 keys and 4 raid bosses should have netted maybe one Manaflux core
Yes, this.
I like playing both so idc. Just wanna do more dmg in keys.
I've gotten maybe 1 manaflux from raid after multiple weeks, that's been the worst source for me
I’ve gotten 2 from special assignment weekly wq
by far
With stat prios looking like its all Crit/Haste now, we can pretty much play whatever for the most part, right? Just change weps and trinkets?
are catalysts the new valor stones? either you have 0 or you are capped
Is that just for ST?
they seem to have the same drop rate from arena matches as they do raid bosses and dungeons
they drop omega fast in there
yeah I've heard that pvp is crazy high drop rate
with the buff on sub is gonna do more dmg no?
!tricks
one thing i did notice, you get alot more of the catalyst charges if you gained IO
This seems like mad speculation to say confidently
You just get a fuckton of em from playing the game idk I'm sitting on so many and I catalyse all the time
Do you guys ever just sit and press backstab waiting on dance and ST to come off cd
I mean you do or your don't
I did 30 keys, only got 1
tons of people on either side of the spectrum
I don’t believe you
Any NA vaults? I wanna prime myself for tomorrow
Damn, well, I didn't miss any at least
check back in seven hours
sorry ur right, did 36 keys, only got 1
How long until delayed
yes
didnt start doing 10s till after i got 4pc
Sub buffs so large, they need an extra day 
curious to see what ds does to parses now that we'll have a mark to offset the bugs
idk with cata charges a lot of people think their experience/drop rate is the same as everyone elses when you can absolutely get rng hell'd on them
Nothing because it’s a pain in the ass to min max
1 cata drop
Considering trickster is going sicko mode idk if it'll be that much better
I think @dusky yacht ran over 42 nexus runs for one of the rings
Is deathstalker way better in raids now or just go trickster?
its already pretty marginal, but ds does squeak by in st
which is no fight this tier
Yep
Yes, and trickster is getting buffed
in aoe
So DS stinker as usual

No?
I got Occlusion Mythic in vault week one or two, then had to do 42 xenas runs for Omission.
It's getting buffed in everything

way bigger burst buff in st
bc strike crits
might even push it over ds
are orbital strikes like early alpha
and considering omega haste ds was only what, 4% ahead in pure st before cloud cover stuff
i don't do a ton of keys, I tend to only do keys if ima gain rating, and sitting on max charges. but nobody knows what the algorithm is for them, so i could be right, could be wrong, we'll never know lol
trickster > ds
p much, they even give us a dedicated button now and everything, rip lol
Hey, have you done any crafting to change your stats since we're going to play with crit, haste, and mastery?
I wish this DS icon would leave my name. I fixed my react on the original post and it’s still here
No one has yet, because the patch is not live anywhere yet.
@vale pine pls fix
dk enjoyer needs ds removal.
Yeah, but that will be the case tomorrow, so we'll have to do it anyway.

Can u give me the assa rogue icon and not whatever i have
Lemme just have sbs
what is the problem with NA server, should they not have the patch already live?
classic blizzard?
!fuu

Blizzard will look at this and say "Buff this man!"
wait where can i change my icon on the name
Hello am banned? Game not loading for me? Anyone else
Literally 8 hour scheduled maintenance
My goat. I promise to not troll in here for at least the next 30 minutes
This is how we tell who has read the pins
~1 hour early, on time, 1 hour extended, 2 hour extended... what are the odds? 😄
i dont scroll down on pins man
Your loss
Sneaky guess is 3 hours early
They’re there for a reason
well there is no bonespike icon anymore ^^
I had the sbs role it turned into robot
I don't know what to believe anymore
we just don't have it in the role selector anymore
still wanna go into dance with 0cp on trickster tmrrw?
but its in onboarding
doesnt even work grr
Per the #subtlety-faq
a yyy sry mixed up
only rotational change is to backstab before dance in the opener
maybe because i had the assa icon kekw
because no premed
the extra backstabs are there for the folks that miss flag and rupture globals
hold pbox till blades or js use 2s before pull and waste it on 2 backstabs?
also that p much kills the strike+Guidon macro doesn't it
hhmm, if only I knew how to be sneaky
for whoever was using that
The rollercoaster that is NA downtime on Tuesday. 
I'm waiting for the flood of people after they see big bongo burst from new cloud cover lol
do we still press vanish without premed ? maybe during blades for extra shadowtrike between dances ?
yeah, wow maintenance sucks, means i have to work instead
This is how we get turn off others spell effects added
yes, you vanish between dances in blades
I’ve never been so hopeful
So I’m pressing guidon on my first shadow strike and then I’m using blades and techniques?
We're starting our Belo prog tonight after my guild kills Crown, so I'll see what Sub intermission dam looks like from me today vs tomorrow lmao
it wasnt as strong as intended 😢
we get to play cloud cover for 1 day, then it gets hotfixed and nerfed prolly
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Not really after the changes
Since we're not using premed, you'll Strike, backstab, backstab (guidon) then continue as normal
Maybe they can nerf our cleave more
I really hope not though bc its really only 5-6% overall which is kinda necessary
potent powder removed
bp dmg reduced by 20%
backstab deals 5% more dmg
as compensation
can't be having rogues in top 10 on a boss fight now... thats a no no
In a vacuum sure, but our burst window getting 20% bigger is HUGE on a lot of fights lmao
doing this before cleave season was so annoying
Caverns boss and second boss in nxp gonna get shredded
bliz trolling rogue at its finest
well ye burst was kinda our only thing and that was taken away
and see where we landed after that
@vale pine does this mean i can get trickster removed from my tags
like aoe blind its just us getting our toys back
What should my opener look like instead? Am I no longer waiting a sec after guidon to dance?
I send a message 1 one message after this one you replied to explaining
Any of the sub giga brains can tell me I'm wrong but p sure that logic stands
you can always add/remove with a reaction in the pin
you still wait one second after guidon to dance
they didn't update Deepening
Yeah, you just won't do it right after your shadowstrike as you won't be at max CP then
and if they did and didn't tell us that would also be a classic blizzard move
dust was goated looking back at it
it is a deep-seated hatred for some I guess haha
You'll guidon on the global that gets you to full CP - then blades dance
where is this located?
how amazing would that be if they did tho,
Change this to
please
could change it to Cloud cover ^^
when on pc
The people want the Pepe cloud cover
test
dust was the biggest pos talent that ever existed and now it resides where it belongs
the rogues yearn for the smoke
dust was one of the most unique talents blizzard could have given us

i think i got it
the ability to pull cd timers to fit fight timers
vs just aligning them when they could naturally
esp when timers changed based on gearing/strat
youre hating the wrong thing here
just an insane power move
blades and flag being different cd timers when you want them to align were the problem
true, maybe the dust woudlnt be shit if we didnt have 6 spells with different cds
Fuu, in your professional feelycrafted opinion, how do you see these buffs today affecting mythic plus representation? With the last set of buffs, assassination seemed to become more popular. Do you think Sub will pull ahead in higher keys?
How long until slow mode?
dust was a solution to the problem
is the 700 haste breakpoint with or without buffs/consumables?
ye it just had the tangential benefit of being obscenely good
as soon as you could shift cd timers
Woth
i mean
With*
every fight had some kind of dmg amp
thanks
this "is the 700 haste breakpoint with or without buffs/consumables?" should be added to FAQ imo
sub/outlaw def. will see more play now
yea and ur every burst window was different to the point of having an excel charts of cd usage
which is exactly what i needed during all that hell on Smolderon
smolderon was one of the easier fights for this imo
since you just had to assign yourself vanish cds for the interm
we even had 2 vanish
this shit was broken as hell man
wdym you can just erase 1 min off your cds?
iirc sub was still worse than assa that season
Is our rotation exactly the same with this patch? What’s this smokebomb thing I’m hearing, we ain’t pressing distract are we
it was just played on Smold cause of timers
it was insanly nice for tmog runs as well
sprint, speed shroud, vanish, sprint for 36 sec of 100% movement speed buff
I know that the answer is to run personal Sims, but after swapping back to assassination I was prioritizing crit and haste with the sprinkling of mastery. Do you think that mythic plus stats will be still skewed towards mastery and crit after hitting a certain break point? Or will it mostly be crit focused? Would I enjoyed about assassination. Was using the same stats for single Target and AOE. Curious if it'll be more like that now with subtlety.
i played it on Nymue as well to practice for Smold
it was at the start
I just hate simming multiple sets of gear.
when ppl didnt know how to play dust
on overall sub was huge
suddenly sub was better
After assa nerfs you played sub. Also sub on tindral
And fyrakk
ye sin just looked really good at the outset bc it was strong post-rework
as it was the only finished spec post-rework lol
i think they were equal on tindral, just u picked sub if u wanted more dmg on roots innit
and was getting PI/wft
Sub was probably better/equal even before the nerfs
Assa just looked insane on logs because nothing was attributed to augs correctly
blizz pulled that classic double whammy on assa cause we were getting PI then u get nerfed then u lose PI xD
classic
Do we know with the coin system coming, if we are unable to get myth drops from dungeons/raids that we already owned before patch. E.g. if I roll Vorasius but already have the wrist at 6/6 myth, can I drop them from coin?
The only thing that matters for the coin is the items youve gotten from previous coins at that same difficulty
Thanks, this makes them a lot less of an instant send in raid for me then
just gotta get all the gear you already got out of the way
or highroll the item you want first try
Literally
no in between
!sim
that part is gonna be frustrating but hey comes with the territory
alleria is actually so nice to bonus roll on
would be nice if it included vault
With the coins, is any item guaranteed? Or can you still just get gold like with the old bonus rolls?
3/4 good items
You always get an item
how to sim as sub?
only gear from rolls
no gold
Oh that's pretty sick then.
People will complain, but it's a lot better than the jokes we all used to spam "Tee hee I rolled bonus gold"
don't get item from raid normally? not have it in your vault? roll
I'll be rolling pit and npx/aa
Me looking at Xalatath
you can still get a duplicate if you picked it up from the vault or got it as a drop, but eventually you can get all the items from a dungeon at myth if you give it enough weeks
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fJvxugW3ohWwy7J759KPjL
Obviously this doesn't have the new weights for crit we want in but yeah AA/Pit seems really good for me
going to need to figure out which dungeon makes the most sense to use the rolls on to get hte items you need.
Probably pit
Pit or skyreach makes the most sense for me via droptomizer
I'm pretty much just targeting rings, pit is nice for ring/dagger/neck/legs
Everything is crit haste in there
depending on your current gear
droptimizer doesn't really take haste breakpoint into consideration
Yeah, I have crafted belt but if I drop the crit/haste belt I can craft back instead
unless that's been updated
Nah it doesn't I'm always looking out for the haste BP tho
I personally don't really sim anymore for the most part bc I'm odd
I know how much haste I have and can get from which pieces or by swapping gems
once we start myth chim that'll be my raid roll
But obviously depends on what you have already
since we don't do myth alleria/lura
All my crafted gear is Crit+haste, should I switch them to Haste+Mastery? Is there any Crit/Master cap we need to get?
yeah, those 3 wer on the list, it's more just comparing it against my current items, and whatever the vault deigns to grace me with 🙂
surely today is the day i replace the renown trinket
START hmmmge?
but I'll be getting myth tier slots from vault, if I'm desperate for those I'll roll Seat since it has every tier slot
just finished aotc last week
i've only had one vault on the rogue since i just swapped over to it like 2 weeks ago ><
so lots of opportunities
I've gotten my hc guidon/gaze from vault bc they absolutely refuse to drop
this week I can finally start taking myth slots again lol
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
unironically im getting owned by being brought to prog bosses
my vault is filled with garbage
Higher ilvl though, saving crests
no because i missed 3 weeks in a row and had to take key vault anyway
once I get myth items I have almost I think 300 myth crests I can just full send

Maybe W if you didn’t spend currency on silly sockets
or this week I get hc alleria neck and I can swap even more gear to crit
i didnt actually have a good place to socket until this week
can you socket crafted belt with vault socket?
my very first vault early season i put it on crafted bracers
I've never actually tried
and yes
nice nice
dungeon dg slice and st patchwerk 5 min
take out buffs and keep only lust
though atm probs better to take bonus roll from vault than socket
right now go for trickster
ds is dead
I need to re-sim crafted bracers vs hc socketed vora
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i understand that but not what im askin about
guys remember 1100 haste Deathstalker? 
Well atleast we are the same stats as sin rogue now lmao.
and outlaw
if you go crit-heavy
That’s now your outlaw set
u was asking whats the past % before this changes?
3
now fk that lol, trickster gigachad
!guide
trickster is the best, i think people forget about the unlimited tricks of the trade. its so nice never having to worry about threat seemingly
the infinite tricks can backfire if the tank dies
and the entire dungeon is suddenly pulled
first pull algethar huehuehue

Sounds like a Fatebound outlaw enjoyer
true, that happens and everyone always get real confused lol
best is when a group doesn't understand why that happens
and you just get to sit quietly and say nothing
👀
Lol 2 days ago I decided to try assa from sub, so I recrafted into crit/haste - got puzzle box and straight after I tried it out I read sub is getting buffed tomorrow 🙁 lucky we enjoy crit
I don't hate outlaw it just feels off. I like pressing ambush/SS so i liked hidden opp but you just can't plat that now
TLDR is this huge aoe buff?
Trickster
Cloud Cover has been updated – Activating Shadow Blades creates a cloud of smoke for 10 seconds, allowing attacks from within the cloud to apply Fazed, stacking up to 2 additional times. Effect persists for 10 seconds after leaving the cloud.
TLDR 

Ranged specs continue to feast
this is the bigger meme
was just about to comment this
how the fuck they came to a conclusion that unh dk aoe needs a buff... i mean i dont mind cause im kinda maining it this season but... cmon
MM dead…. Just a 10% ST buff
I refuse to believe the MM changes are that much of a nerf
I'm in the same boat
why tf did they buff the hero spec of the expac again its literally top in almost every situation
Need to access paywall for real numbers.
@magic coral which?
Devourer
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
wtf
tuning seems like
a lot of things do more damage
but i don't think it rly considers how good a spec is

will the simcraft/raidbot be updated for new builds after launch?
its best to wait for reset to get the most accurate results
Roughly 5.5 hours from now
na beta tester can then check weather or not there are some last minute changes
checking crit dmg as soon as I can get on lol
We still need 700 haste right
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Btw if you use trink with shadow blades you will always be able to use 2x sectec
yes
So its ok xd
so how will it work? for example I've upgraded Vorasius myth dagger then got Beloren. Do I have to spend another upgrade item for a new dager? anyone got the info?
I guess haste is more for the talent that converts it to duration
you need a fully upgraded mythic or heroic weapon, and can upgrade it with the item then
you won't upgrade a heroic weapon
so either your crafted, or any mythic weapon you got (dagger ofc)
You can, in theory, just get an additional reroll token from vault
and then roll 3 times in e.g. skyreach
skyreach has a dagger
ye, which is the same as Beloren theoreticaly
what if i just craft both daggers
so you use the reroll in the dungeon?
Yes
Craft is 285
myth is 289 not much differance
Well sure but that's the answer to your question
raid would be way better nah
but raid roll is 2 coins and m+ is 1
i'm trying to figure out how we get the myth track reroll from dungeons
like how we use it, just end of an M+ ?
Have we figured out the cool upgrade item yet. Is it all solved. Is all knowledge known.
the loot pool is also small
ah okay, so prolly just use the reroll tokens all in sky reach till getting myth dagger
pit is another decent/good dungeon for loot
we are gonna beta test it when it comes up
and find out
or nexus point for rings?
damn, is it not up yet
smh, I went to work and everything.
nexus point is good too ye
ye I'm gonna try and run a pit asap after looking into cloud cover stuff
8 hour maintenance 
Are you guys just natty upgrading dagger with new patch? Even though outlaw might become a thing?
can the reroll hit a myth track item you already have?
damn
also would be kinda fun if you could spend multiple tokens per run
and just rapid fire them lol
but the dagger has vers ^^
pit dagger is haste/crit
that'd own
but I think it might even be one per dungeon per week? I don't know I might be making shit up
nexus point one is haste vers
lil krik's beetle stabber
Skyreachdagger
I'm hoping its like the old rolls where you get one chance per kill/dungoen clear
Is the best xd
you can't get a item twice
Same
once per dungeon per week would feel pretty bad
so you can basically get all items from a m+ dungeon
esp if the goal is targeted loot
Actually, I think you CAN once you've exhausted all other items.
we're effectively capped on crests right now so all these myth items are essentally heroic for quite a while
if you take one extra roll from vault
u do keys fuu?
and spend this and next week
so if i already have the haste ring on myth track, if i reroll in nexus i can't get that same ring correct
im thinking to use on aAA
i got mythic guidon, unsure tbh
with my luck i would end up getting the same fking ring i already have
we receive the rolls how?
just logging?
i know the upgrade need to the forge stuff
either gamble on gaze
Buying hem from Decimus in Voidstorm
for gold, marlvins or crests
we need to do something?
Yes, you probably need to do something
Hi Just a short question.
Sometimes after my opener i can Just Use one Eviscerate, sometimes Two. It should always be 2 Times or? Is it because of the Macro ST/SB/SD?
but what if I don't own a single bis item from raid table ?

It's most likely the Apex talent proccing due to Shadow Technique stacks
good table baby
So its just the Proc and not a 100% of casting 2 Finisher after Opener
You'll typically be able to cast a finisher twice on opener due to SHT stacking very fast with lust, etc. But that's most likely what it is, just the Apex working.
is sub still the top spec?
Thank you. Love u
Its the bottom spec
no that'd be a dom rogue, not a sub rogue.
nice.
I assume outlaw is pulling ahead now with like 13% buff today
Maybe!
Fun, I have to change my stat weights again.
why are we no longer taking Premed?
Not enjoying needing to change it.
Outlaw #1 now
Shadowstrike OP with rotten and the new changes, premed feels too good and blizz wanted to makle sure they made rogue a bit les enjoyable
You don't really need to change anything
Just get the haste breakpoint and stack Crit/Mastery
Lets see, what would be the best option for me:
I need: Weapon, shoulders, back, hands, legs, boots, rings and one trinket
hmm
It feels weird having to need little vers after so many years of vers/mastery priority.
skyreach sounds rly good
