arent most of them playing either outlaw or sin now?
i mean rank 1 as in top tier players
there are a bunch of very high level sub players out there
https://raider.io/characters/eu/howling-fjord/Салатисос?season=season-mn-1 can check out this guy
he's rank 1 sub right now and he's die hard sub
ever since i've been following him he never switches off sub
i think someone corrected me he's not russian or something
but i have no idea haha
but yeah he's cool
well many languages can use those kinda letters but sadly i only know russian
ME TOO
he is ru, trust me
oh he is? ok
nash slavyanin
someone got upset at me one time over that in here before
as if i'm supposed to be able to pick all those languages apart
hes at least speaking russian 😄
he just changing his nick with cute russian enders of salad
does sec tech macro'd with blades not work anymore? I always have to use it again because of cloud cover(?)
!cc
Shadow Blades / Cloud Cover bug:
Talenting into cloud cover gives Shadow Blades a 30 energy cost; this is not intentional and seems to come from the implementation of the talent. It seems to just cast Distract, which costs 30 energy. Make sure to have enough energy before using Shadow Blades.
work, just prepare 60 energy
i like the cat pfp
Dark iron dwarf 
All credit to @keen dome
lol yeah

as the kids say, he has the rizz
!aa
Apex talent optimization:
- Is shadow dance up? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
- Do you have 5 or more stacks of shadow techniques? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
- Do you have Darkest Night up OR A supercharged combo point? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
- Is ancient arts up? - :x: No
If all of the above are true, use cast a Shadowstrike / Shuriken Storm (even if on full cp).
that kinda feels like sub's strong point in keys is having really good ST
Idk the aoe is kinda alright too ig
Do we use this apex optimisation also in aoe/m+?
it's not bad
but it's not great
i dunno i see what real specs are doing in dungeons like AA
and i'm like nah
also just casually started playing sin in keys now and did this in a 16 MT
Cloud Cover also kinda doesnt help with messy pulls like academy 1st
but u will pump boss 10 mins
Ye sin is really good rn
- sub is so "good tank" addict
yeah i think sin the play in most dungeons
if your tank alltime chain pull etc
u will be the worst
Sin is also good in pit tho
but i legit started playing sin because trying to use cloud cover with pug tanks is a nightmare
What about Outlaw? Is it worth to gamble for 1h or we still hate the pirate thing?
I kinda felt like I had to cloak on saladhar aswell
outlaw is very good
With the beams
Still hate
Haha
but yeah i'm not gonna play outlaw
outlaw has too many tracks for me atm
I played so much sub m+ now that my muscle memory fks up the sin rotation-.-
the last time i mained outlaw i would have constant pain in my left arm
from button mashing
taht what im stuggling right now
I've tried a bit of sin last week and while in big pulls I did okay damage I just felt so useless on bosses
But from sub my thumb also hurts from stretching it out while smashing e and 3 haha
i cant be fucked playin with my cdm to add their extra 5 buttons
Sin dmg isnt low on bosses tbf

sin is going beyond okay dmg in big pulls
Gotta step up your health game fam
and the ST is not that bad tbh
(I hadn't played it ever before so I really just played it horribly)
haha i have a special physical issue
had lots of reconstructive surgery
Sorry to hear, but atleast you got a real excuse to not play outlaw then
Which is a plus
HAHA true i actually never thought about it that way
Since discord is popping. Can someone answer this.
Blades not on pull or lust
20 seconds
Sectec dance.
Do you still use second dance at 8 seconds to line up ? Even with the next sectec coming around 2 seconds left in blades?
And if so do you send the sectec then because next dance is 10 seconds away
What does the new opener look like since we aren't taking premed anymore? backstab until full combo points and then start the normal opener?
Yes, as per guide and the faq
Still weird somehow
I feel like it is better to dance immediately to spend more time in the cloud ... but it's just my feeling
Maybe Shadowstrike - Vanish - Shadowstrike instead of just backstabbing?
Well that sounds like your talking about the opener. The opener lines up great to me usually because most lust on pull
that sounds like a good idea, ill have to test on a dummy and see
!open
The following opener is recommended without Premeditation:
Shadowstrike-> Vanish +Shadowstrike -> Backstab until 7 cp + Guidon -> Cooldowns
With all the items I have in my bags, my best sim for single target is to be at 628 haste, 1200 crit, 700 mastery, 78 vers
(with crit flask, simming better than mastery flask)
Didn't know this was a thing thank you! I actually just ran a sim and see this was what it did also.
!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.
shadowstrike > vanish > shadowstrike > NE vanish > shadowstrike > boom
Yea I checked that. Opener works great. But sectec at like 2 seconds remaining didn’t make sense at the subsequent blades after first (no lust)
But I guess it means send it anyway with 2 seconds left
Is vanish not on the gcd? Could I macro shadowstrike to it? On sim it shows they are both used at the same exact time
nah does not work
I didnt think so, but wasnt sure
it will make you do a backstab instead of strike if you press it too fast after vanish
I was wondering :
If I send sectech with like 1 sec left on dance, will the 2nd hit of sectech be boosted by the dance that just ended ? Like is the boost applying when you press the sectech button or does dance need to be active for every hit of sectech ?
You need to cast Sectech before dance duration is at 1.2sec
So if you cast at 1.0 sec the 2nd clone hit is not buffed
Sectec is in 2 parts or 3 parts nowadays ?
ok thats what I was expecting even tho it sucks
Is there a way to force raidbots to sim me at a specific haste floor? It keeps telling me to drop to like 500 haste which afaik is not the move
I’m on team Make Sectech One Big Shadow Hit
Can have the same animation just for frills
If they so choose
@tribal blade do you know if wound poison works on shrieking mini boss in WR?
what's the highest people are simming these days?
WS*
im at 110k
not sure sorry
i'm a filthy casual key pusher now 😉
wthelly
kinda normal nah ?
Apologies for potentially stupid question. In opener, why do we shadow dance before shadow blades?
Pretty sure we dont
Does sectec clones "move" with us or are they stuck where cast. Unless it's just a debuff thingy
That’s why I was really confused
I think since they are off gcd you are really pressing them at the same time
Along with the sectec
It doesnt matter which order theyre put in
As long as both dance+blades are before secret technique youre good
Why wouldnt sectech at the end make any sense? Ye sure its not supercharged but if you wait and send a dance afterwards you have to send a sectech without dance later as theyre desynced
During the opener with lust you'd want to supercharge the sectech as its cooldown is like 12s or so, but the timing is pretty much the same as other blades windows
Ty
Well someone else pointed it out that sectec is still boosted by blades.
I was just under the impression you wanted dance and sectec to be lined up perfectly to get the most out of them. I reckon with blades it doesn’t matter as much
are we super bugged? I just watched a video claiming that rogues are the most bugged class this patch
We didnt get many new bugs with this patch unlike some other specs (like DKs
) but theres plenty of bugs from before yes
However most of them do not impact the rotation much and is just "x does slightly less damage because its not boosted by Y"
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
Or blades now costs 30 energy because the game thinks you are distracting:(
@hazy breach thinking about it. Maybe ive been wrong for a while.
Outside of dance, do secret techniques have to be lined up with shadow dance at start of dance, or just need to be done in the dance window at some point
Well supercharger is only on the first 2 finishers
I got Pit legs last night from my extra roll. Marked safe from getting another belt for right now
So it should be in one of those 2 (ideally the first one) all the time. The second dance during blades is the exception to the rule
do we have any log divers that can help me out?
!guidon
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.
is it fine to say it's only true while blood lust ?
If it was only true during bloodlust it would say so
so even without bloodlust with guidon u can fit a second sec tech in the blades ?
Because during bloodlust your sectech naturally lines up so you can supercharge it anyway
Yes
Well my new question now is talking about completely outside of blades. Does sectec have to be on the dot with dance cast or just sometime within it
Outside of blade
So it should be in one of those 2 (ideally the first one) all the time.
Ty
i've got a group now
good comp as well
but im probably going to have to do assi sooner or later
our prio sucks
well when i paire my second shadow dance in the blades + guidon section
my second sec tech is throwed when there only 1 sec of shadow dance and blades , that's correct ?
Is going sub for keys purely by preference or is there a strategic choice ?
ok thanks!
its most likely preference as sub is not great in keys
anyone knows how to decrease memory game frame size from nsrt ?
I'm assuming this varies by key level
Well done then 
its so big
if stuff dies quickly, sub is better I suspect, higher burst than assa
your aoe is mid and your cleave is ass

your ST is ok
Should be like 2s but yes
assa def benefits at higher key levels though
though honestly if you dont like assa just play outlaw
outlaw is super annoying to play. way more crap to keep track of.
luckily to swap from sub to sin u only need 1 item
and that is box
stats are basically the same
i mean
its the same from sub to outlaw basically
or from sin to outlaw
they're all crit > haste
Several classes got bugfixed, but nothinf for us again? Lol
I get some people really like complex rotations/lots of stuff to track, but I dont. Sub is nice cause I just zug zug
I played shaman for years, I'm used to it.
i find outlaw to be less aggravating in tracking than sin purely because of implacable
outlaw the sleeper that spec is actually nice to play rn
Sub is still giga mastery stacking in aoe
oh yeah true i guess
Its only pure ST where crit is good
I'm probably not micromanaging some stuff for sub. I just dislike that Outlaw has a lot more stuff I have to track when to use (prep, AR, RTB, Keep it rolling, etc) whereas I dont have to do that with sub or assa.
well crit is still good in aoe at least according to my sims
though im running PE in the aoe sims
Well yeah its still good, i meant that mastery is just insano with PP
yeah for sure i shouldve mentioned that
but eh since you're hitting 700 haste and we're in early expac
we really dont have much stats to play with ngl
Gotta make sure you get mastery from your pot though
are you using reckless?
For aoe ye
im still just using light's potential on everything
ye when i need to play sub aoe i just recraft my stuff to mastery lmao
ring/belt/wep call it gg
thats basically ~300 mastery
some gem swaps
flask
call it a day
sim doesnt even agree to more than that, picks a crit/haste ring over crit/mastery at that point
thats the one nice thing about rogue right now i guess though
can swap between all 3 specs quite easily
well something's wrong cuz my second sech tech comeback on cd when there's less than 1s on the timer for blades
unless you're in some demon full mastery haste build on sub
are you using guidon
and do you have ~700 haste
Then you either dont have ~700 haste or you are not pressing your buttons fast enough
yeah idk then like eleem said
lemme throw a vid of my openner
if you guidon ~1 sec before cds then just go into your cds with sectec being pressed instantly it should work
ye vid will help
is a macro with blade/guidon problematic ?
Log would prob help more, but vid works
yes
you want to guidon 1 sec before cds
wait , i throw the guidon 1s before my cds ?
mh
dance duration scales with your haste stat (the flat number) and it takes like a sec to update
cuz in the sim raidbot he throw it a the same time than other cds
so you guidon, then 1 sec later press your cd macro
Oh so even if guidon is with blades (and so before danceà it still sucks ?
the sim is not realistic
Ohhhh
are they the same? I thought assa wanted more crit and haste? I was looking at items and I thought I'd have to recraft my items to crit/haste stats
well... you barely have time to squeeze everything in blades
Felt like something was wrong with py burst setup that was it
so using blades before dance is quite bad
The bug isnt implemented in simc because it does not have any impact on the sim besides making all the logic a lot more complicated and annoying
is it a bug though 
And numerically it does not matter
Yeah
yea pika mentioned that in his latest videos he pops guid then waits a second then cooldowns
sorry i might have misunderstood something so the opener should be guidon and 1 sec later blande > dance > sectech ?
now i got those 2s
I don’t even feel like swapping to the other specs, sub seems so good
yes
if you guidon with cds, dance wont be updated in duration
so guidon open to get to the max cb for burst is the thing ?
!opener
The following opener is recommended without Premeditation:
Shadowstrike-> Vanish +Shadowstrike -> Backstab until 7 cp + Guidon -> Cooldowns
Okok i see now
well my burst phase is fixed , ty boiz
thanks a lot man
also guys, after first SD, when you hit Shadow strike, and you don’t proc black bars, you SS again right, how often do we need to SS at full combos to get black bars, sometimes I catch myself doing it and black bars don’t activate
i’m sure i’m missing something small
LOVE sub btw im casual
Apex talent optimization:
- Is shadow dance up? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
- Do you have 5 or more stacks of shadow techniques? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
- Do you have Darkest Night up OR A supercharged combo point? - :ballot_box_with_check: Yes
- Is ancient arts up? - :x: No
If all of the above are true, use cast a Shadowstrike / Shuriken Storm (even if on full cp).
never
ye this optimization mostly plays itself
if you pool sht
unless you're deathstalker in which case good luck
Not as much without premed, but yes
oh I guess I gotta know if I won’t proc the bars
guess that’s my issue not knowing if ima proc, ok cool
you proc them if you have 5 or more sht AFTER you use a builder
Don't just blindly ss twice to proc apex. Look at the shadow technique stacks. If it's more than 5, then strike twice, else finish
perfect!!
sorry english is not my first language but when it says "is dance up" it means like activated ? or just "not on cd"
Yes
activated
When coming up to a dance+sectec (not in Blades) how long is a reasonable time before sectec is ready to stop casting and charge up Shadow Techniques? I've been stopping at around 5 seconds but find myself capping energy
you usually stop using finishers for a few secounds before secret comes up
roughly 3, but 5 should be fine too
Ok cool thanks, was a bit unsure what a "few" meant 😄
Few means 3 
For the 2nd sectec in dance quick question : when I use my second dance right after tthe first one, I manage to cast sectec in blades but i'm no longer in dance : should i delay a bit my 2nd dance ?
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.
(assuming you use guidon)
Subtlety Macros:
Here is a macro to make it easier to fit all of your globals into your Shadow Dances:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Secret Technique
Deathstalker likes to use this macro instead:
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Shuriken Storm
This can be combines with trinkes and other cooldown use.
/cast Shadow Blades
/use 13
/use 14
/use Light's Potential
/cast Ancestral Call
Trickster Rogues can combine Coup de Grace and Black Powder in one button:
/cast Coup de Grace
/cast Black Powder
You can find more macros and details in Guides like
WoWhead or
Icy Veins.
You have Coup de Grace, and Sec Tec cd is 6 seconds, do you dance at that timing to consume Coup de Grace, or consume Coup as it is, and then Dance Sec Tec
Do nothing. Save shadow technique stacks and then dance when sectech is ready and get an apex proc on coup
so even if im full CP, i just spam backstab for 6 seconds?
Blizz needs to fix the bug of premed not giving full cp. opener feels terrible now
Just swap back to premed if it bothers you
premed is bugged? lol
Not really
Isn’t it suppose to give full points out of stealth?
it does
u imported new talents
- The first Ancient Arts cannot proc while Premeditation is up, which is why it is a DPS loss to talent into it as the Shadowstrike clones with rotten up can crit insanely hard.
- There is also a bug that makes it so while Premeditation is active you cannot get a refund nor spawn the clone from Ancient Arts 3. (This does not matter much numerically, but feels weird)
It didn’t last night in raid for me. I’ll go back and look at my stuff to make sure I didn’t do something stupid and swap out believing I still had it.
Idk if spamming bs is better than capping energy, cause you might lose coup stacks doing so. Probably doesn't matter either way but feels bad to cap energy
just take a point of ephermal bond and skill premed, i did that too
I did
yea the new opener is without premed
I thought I swapped but will look
but u can take premed like many people did because it feels bad without it
very little % dmg loss but very comfy
Yo, Eleem, just wanted to say big up and thank you for the sub pins etc
Eleem is my favourite pin-up
Alright, I’m stupid. Disregard previous complaint lol
Guess I changed then imported over the change
Stats are still Haste until breakpoint (700) > Fill the rest with Crit/Mastery. Crit is worth slightly more than before but that does not mean mastery is garbage, especially once theres more than 1 target. Can start using Crit Flask instead of Mastery.
is that break point wit/without guidon
Do I do the AA thing if I’m pooling 5 super chargers for egg?
I’d assume yes but I’m not sure if any of the rotten/premed stuff change that
Do you guys save shadowblades until first egg phase on beloren?
If the breakpoint is 700–800 haste without Guidon, why do all the logs I see from +19 keys (april 23-24) in Mythic+ show Sub Rogues using mastery flasks and going full mastery/crit with only 400–500 haste? Why is that?
because they’re sacrificing a strength of the spec to go more aoe and people copy paste instead of thinking for themselves
I probably should have read the previous post…
yea you get more overall but at what cost(big st rip)
although maybe that is what their team needs
so dont try to copy blindly
Yeah just like you could run rotten in m+ over finality if your group needs more prio dmg
Why doesn't shadow blades say it has an energy cost on it?
I always forget to pre charge combo points before fights.
Shadow Blades / Cloud Cover bug:
Talenting into cloud cover gives Shadow Blades a 30 energy cost; this is not intentional and seems to come from the implementation of the talent. It seems to just cast Distract, which costs 30 energy. Make sure to have enough energy before using Shadow Blades.
Does it feel like you have to press SD more than once for it to take a effect from server lag? Especially in macros
if you are on eu there is a little big of a clown situation rn
with routing
basically MS decided to introduce AI routing
making your packets do a worldwide tour
you can use a vpn or route yourself through something open like openvpn if you know some networking
fuckin ai
just make some traceroutes with a free one or a limited subscription
then use those and maybe get some backup for the telia ones as they go rabid sometimes
so that jump does not kill the connections
The other classes can get bug fixed though.
We got out stealth sound bug fixed 💪 
yes
swapping to the darkside
Outlaw has been much fun. Trickster has been wonky and awkward.
Have they fixed our shadow blades energy to cast fart gas thing yet
no
imagine rogue bugs getting fixes
lmao
I swear im wiping my team in m+ cause my fart gas covers the ground
And no one can see shit
Why the heck does this not work on the M+ orbs that needs to be interrupted?
it works when u have a non orb in target
just not when u target orb
What's been wonky about trickster? Especially in terms of OL?
Don't target an orb. It kills the orb before it can spread
You land on 5cp alot.
But dont spend on 5
So hit another builder
It's also energy starved. But that's a problem for the outlaw channel.
That is so god damn dumb.
i go the prem way i guess xD just chill
Ask how those bug fixes are going for DKs
How high should I increase my crit rating to avoid over-capping?
!FUU
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Get your haste to the appropriate level specific to the on use trinket you have then just start adding crit/mastery gear. More mastery for keys / fights you use potent powder on. More crit for most raid fights.
they fixed a goooood bug(almost 10% increase) and hold 6 bad bugs 
Maybe it’s out there somewhere… But could Blizzard just formally acknowledge the bugs they are tracking for each class? It would be a little less frustrating as a player to atleast have them confirm they are aware…
they're fixing them
and have tweeted about it
so pretty well id say
@Litendave Hello Litendave,
I can confirm we have several fixes for Unholy DK issues currently in the works.
Please keep an eye on the hotfix blog over here for more details in the near future:
https://t.co/A2fc7bakEC
Thanks!
yeah class not playable for 2 days
Amazing
Not giving them a pat on the back recognizing shit is wrong.
They’ll just call cloud cover intended and move on
nope
i guess sub doesnt have problems with it but
assa and outlaw
holy shit
literal aids
They were ahead of schedule an expansion
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I feel it on sub
Now they let it rot
can I get my gdamn tts back to main channel so I can actually hear it? Being blind was bad enough. Now 1/2 deaf.

Hey guys, I need some advise on gearing. This week I got mythic Edge of the Bruning Sun and I am not sure if I should take it, since most high level rogues I looked up on raider.io are using different daggers. But then again, I guess the only diffrence are secondary stats and I could chose other items accordingly. Or am I missing something?
You want a max level dagger main hand. Stats are not as important as the extra ilvl
stop copying others gear choices
They’re using what they got
which is what you should be doing as well
They're now very tight-lipped about somethings, afraid to admit certain those, like the recraft bug
Yup. Does it sim higher than what you have?
doesnt vanish work to drop?
is that skyreach "tech" with running between two beams at second boss a real thing or a meme?
vanish and meld works both (for the circles in triumvirate too)
most necessery bug they fixed on rogue kekw (from the recent patch notes for 22th april)
I should know this since human but I don't because I forget to push it
Probably a very easy and quick fix
really work
audio related bugs are very noticable, so nice to have that fixed
many players rely on audio queues
I imagine it was a very very quick fix too
tbh I felt weird without the stealth sound... like something was not working properly
I play with sound and it made me question my sanity
it was the first thing I noticed
Agree it needed to be fixed (the audio cue) but when compared to other bugs, low prio.
warning sign or planned execution?
I have music or dnd on and game sound usually interferes with the mood lol
sub is viable on 19+ keys?
I mean at least nothing 
Execution
did a 18 yesterday, but didn't see any sub going +19 higher
saw some early 19s as sub
but yeah that was like 2 weeks ago
with the changes i would assume its 100% viable
it already was and it should be even more now
I think we can def do a 19 with the right comp
Issue would probably be finding a group unless you run with people
I need them to fix premed this shit feels so awful to play rn
oh regarding that for sure lmao
you wont find pug groups
But at least its the same for sin and outlaw lmao
yeah its garbage without it
but what can we do
been trying outlaw since wednesday
they have huge energy issues
i'm happy at least this isnt the case with sub
tryed sin and outlaw, but SUB feels better tbh
I found not vanishing instantly after opening strike and getting a few autos off granted a sht stack often enough to make no-premed opener feel pretty fine
when ur not on a boss lol
which is the true bis gear list ?
yeah at least we can get unseen blades more quickly
tried strike->bs->vanish+strike-> bs (if needed) into guidon was decent
raid opening without coup de grace was so lame
I've been trying to avoid switching spec but tbh after seeing that the stat prio went from mastery to crit with that patch, I'm just like... Man I don't even know I was really loving sub before the patch
I think it depends on what you've gotten so far, better to optimise for your personal stats
Its reccomended not to look at the BiS lists
both are within 0.1% difference i believe
just need to sim urself to see which item feats more with the rest of ur gear
so treat it as alternative bis options but always sim
Sim your self and go with what makes sense
Obviously there are certain trinkets you will want regardless
neither because BiS isn't real and it requires every single piece at that iLevel.
just sim even with bonus rolls now getting the perfect setup is just pure luck
slice and patch
yeah seems legit
should be fairly identical
Where'd you get this second list btw? The blue one
It's almost exactly my gear I'm flattered
You realized nothing really changed right? Crit was better before in low target. Mastery better as soon as you take pp
ty
Is there a line I can add to my Sims that keeps a min haste? Trying to figure out what gear to go for but it keeps wanting me to go below 700
nope. You can take off weapon oils and that should help. Big swing items like the neck from crown you have to do some maths
i didnt even notice
no stealth sound
:D
perma blasting techno
I was losing my mind when I first got Gaze
The procs made me think an addon was tripping
No, been playing for like 6 weeks, following the wowhead guide and now all my gear is "wrong" and my skills got fucked up
Lawls did I get
in a filtered message? 
i looked at beloren loot drops and everything is bis so i might roll that instead of light co. guidon or nah
You don't really need to swap the stat priority. Crit is better ST, mastery is better AoE. More crit more damage, etc. Just naturally gear to 700 haste then get mast/crit gear.
It's not really worth rolling on a heroic raid boss, if you are also able to do mythic raid bosses. And if you aren't, M+ is going to be vastly better value.
I wish the “there is no wrong gear” was in big caution tape.
This spec is quite easy to gear. Get Mythic MH dagger. get guidon, get 700 haste. Everything else is near frivolous.

Pretty much.
Don't just follow a BiS list. That's not what they are for. You can eyeball most gearing choices outside of trinkets.
Either way you'll be fine. Raid or M+
!sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I'm pretty frivolous myself
^ these sims should have the highest simming combinations
imagine all the outlaw players Seli trolled with his outlaw guide that had ranger general trinket as BiS. 
so if you want a "bis" to aim for, thats probably the closest you get
yeah
(wowhead should have the same items as the single target sim)
I assume the caveat is it requires ever piece so it's still just, like. Kinda whatever? (I value the sim work though, it's great)
How can it be BiS when Eleem has a different BiS on IV?
yeah
so you can shift pieces around and it will be still within margins or low %
Absolutely

I think the real question is what's the BiS speed build
what's the mathmatically optimal and maximum amount of speed I can gain
ranger general is really good tho
Can somebody explain to me like i'm 5 and possibly with an IQ below average how upgrading weapon work...
I have a dagger crafted 285, got a Myth track dagger from vault, why do i have to pay again to upgrade?
Will i have to pay AGAIN for outlaw MH?
@warm marlin outlaw and prog on paladins was an emotional rollercoaster. Roll 3/4 buffs. We call wipe 30 seconds in. Roll 1/2 buffs. We make it 3+ minutes. 
You need 2 weapons upgraded before you get free upgrades
ye
Just like rings and trinkets
my rng on lura adds is insane
sometimes im full jackpot ar just coming up
bte reset
and i do half a devourer dh's damage
sometimes i dont proc have no ar
and i do 5% of a dev dh damage
I couldn’t find AR timings to go when all three stacked. Holding felt awful
I went and farmed a puzzle box for assa. Maybe give that a go. Even with my dmg, we still were ahead of check so it doesn’t matter until healers sort it out.
dropping smoke bomb on paladins can also suck
Yeah I was just firing shit off
if its timed poorly
we have 3 melee total. 
no skyfury didn’t add to my outlaw fun
something something no resto shaman
is crit flask the play now with the new build?
if you get to 700 haste without haste flask, it should be
in m+ maybe still mastery flask
Do you have potent powder? Yes = mastery. No = crit.
what is the options without guidon ? 800 haste ?
idk what is happening, but mplus is harder now, im glad i got 15 resi before patch 12.0.5
neither of the lists is bis, somehow none of the pieces have avoidence on it
true bis = every piece with avoidence
what is this speed slander
ur new hero talent is killing everyone
😛
haha true
we need a fight club to decide which is better, speed, leech or avoidence
Since i started using ephe
I leech like crazy
Like 2 extra healthbars on a big pull type crazy
Agreed
this would go hard
zoomies is bis
!fuu

And got nerfed
Indeed
Hey, quick question.
I was reviewing a log from an EU player named Shadowdager and it appears they used SecTec at 5.5s and 18.7s; only a 13.2s gap. I thought it had a 19s CD so how does that happen, or am I reading it wrong?

Deepening Shadows
Wait nvm I'm stupid
what do u mean?
bloodlust and lots of haste
from guidon presumably
its around 13s
Indestructible Dagger and Blacksmith as a profession.
True BiS
leech is my fave makes me want to pump harder when im dying
Leech is best for rogue and its not close
During Shadow Dance, is it worth spamming Shadowstrike to proc Black Bars before casting Secret Technique with Supercharger, or is it a DPS loss compared to just Eviscerating and using Secret Technique without the proc?
i feel like feint is avoidance enough and we can use evasion if we really need
I'm jking obviously
Leech all the way… midnight s1 is the season of bleeds and dots… help your healer out 🙂
pumpthrough damage , use cds as defensives and pumpppp
imagine if cloud cover healed teammates lol
ive gone a bit back on leech this tier
at least for sub
u already have EE and fade
u need more healing in cds?
what if it was speed all along..
guys is there a fix for the apex not showing in cd manager bug?
speed on top of dance/stealth speedyboots
i am the fast
Isnt avoidance way better than leech
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
not for rogue
what do u need avoidance for
feint that aoe cuh
ive been playing leech since start of lou
I mean does it even matter not like you'll have much of a choice
it makes it easier for my healers during raidwide dmg phases so i use avoidance
leech also gives like twice as much % as avoidance does after the nerfs in tww1
you just get more value
is cloud cover costing 30 energy also making it use a GCD? I've had a few times where my macro doesnt cast ST but a global is still triggered
guys no premed is bait - all top logs are with premed
Rogue has so much speed baseline it's pointless
it was a joke, everyone on the wow forums is complaining that cloud cover obscures swirlies and everyone who brings a rogue is trolling/killing their group
yo, someone tried these build on dungeons? simulated better for me
"all"
I'm not seeing it
We already have leech 
?? i am slow
get mechanic no step target
gg
No step + sprint on cd ? Gg
My autocorrect is buggin
!fuu

NO MORE GREEN, I'M SAVED
!TALENTS
a little pinch of old schoolness i like it
When is blizz fixing premed and cloud cover energy… it’s been a few days already for what should be a 1 minute code review…
Take a peek at wangs video in #outlaw
lmao first guy cooking with other trinket
Yeah the logs can be really funny sometimes
Especially the chinese guys

woah they rly not lettin this go
Whenever i think i parsed huge i get baited by blizzard's damage meter
Uhm so im completely new to rogue and am confused on on thing. Leveling sub rn and as far as i could see there are a few talents interacting with slice and dice. If im not completely mistaken you actually dont press it though. So do we have a few talentpoints we just dumb in there but actually dont use it or am i missing something entirely
any way to check in logs total/avg CP per finisher?
yup you don't even bind slice and dice later on
!cc
Shadow Blades / Cloud Cover bug:
Talenting into cloud cover gives Shadow Blades a 30 energy cost; this is not intentional and seems to come from the implementation of the talent. It seems to just cast Distract, which costs 30 energy. Make sure to have enough energy before using Shadow Blades.
so i have the swift slasher talent and the one from trickster but its not worth pressing still
dude they need to rework the daggers sheath on sides
it feels so off
i like it, outside of the daggers
mb mb had a stroke
the SNEAKY EDIT
i was also reading what you worte
Yo why’d you ask for xmog while I’m at work, I’m so fuckin proud of my rogue xmog

I'm a highmountain tauren.. I'll spare you the screenshot
tauren rogue is still insane to me
Link your armoury then
whyd they do that lmao
armory doesn't show xmog rn
shit's still broken
you go on talents ui and see you can only play outlaw

but yeah, tauren sub or assa is weird
I’ll post it a couple hrs from now when I’m home and everyone has forgotten about this conversation.
Any known sub rogues who are streaming 18's+ for mythics?
Did 12.0.5 changes make DS playable?
nothing fancy. Just a vibe.
Trickster got mongo buffed so probably not
Casual will play it sometimes, and then theres the russian sub rogue player, but I forget his twitch
Can check thru this channel though
preesh bro
The 285->289 dps increase is very minimal right?
I’m manifesting a pit dagger from my next extra roll drop and I only have enough myth crests for one more full upgrade this week
Well how much are you playing now til reset?
My OH is also only 263 so I’m wondering if it’s ideal to full send a myth dagger or save
Myth Dagger is 99% of the time your main focus, especially if you have haste / guidon
I have hero track guidon and gaze and my path to a mythic one is non existent
then yes my mythic is your priority
has anyone been refunded a bonus roll yet
Not me, though a photoshoped patch not was circulated as ragebait.
That was fun, it implied Blizzard was going to take your rolled items and only then refund bonus rolls.
that would be nice (for me)
they will just refund the bonus rolls and let players keep whatever they rolled.
I got boots from skyreach--or whatever it's called--and now I may get them again. Or not. I probably will since everything but shoulders (which I rolled after patch) is good for me except the boots (which are not scratched off).
which is stupid cuz if you didnt roll you get nothing. I can tell u alot more people got items they wanted then didnt, If id known we were getting refudned id a burned all 3 rolls
sure.
Hard to make the whole thing fair, but again--I might get 3 rolls but I will probably end up getting 2 pairs of boots before I clean out skyreach.
i rolled waist (embellishment) and a cloak (meh). worst part is that they were from pit and i would like to roll there again next week so i may get those items again
Theres no way to be PERFECTLY fair, but allowing some people 6 rolls in a single week is obnoxious to people that actually read the post in the first few hours n sat on their rolls like good little boys n girls
Complaining about free myth gear is wild ngl you'll get refunded
I wish I abused it, I rolled 4 times this week on my main. Could've gotten 8 myth pieces 😂
we do have a #transmog channel as well where the mega roleplayers hangout
And ofc my 4 rolls were garbage no puzzlebox in sight
thats what im saying! just give everyone 2-3 rolls n call it a day dont make it just a refund
how you roll times
then the people who got bugged duplicates are just as behind as they were before
But they're atleast removed from the pool so it's 100% next week
are they behind? cuz if you got the items u wanted your actually ahead
most will still be behind
So 2x extra plus the 2 you get
only people who got the item they wanted and dont need to roll in that smae place again will be ahead

Greetings! We are aware of this bug and it is being worked on. Thanks for the report. ^JH
u think the 8 people in my raid group that got gaze are going to REROLL chimarus again for what? shits and giggles?
a very small amount of people actually get ahead from this
and for every one of those people, 3-4 didnt get that and have to roll again
and can just roll the same shit item
no doubt by "top men."
Have they said how we are getting the cores back?
your right but thats a risk you take when you dont wait for an OBVIOUSLY buggy patch to be fleshed out and all the people that spent AFTER tuesday when it was fairly known there was an issue they did it anyway.
terrible argument
Like if they said hey anyone that spent on tuesday will be refunded ok fairly fair, but its just if you spent in general
most people didnt spend cuz blizzards typical fashion is sucks to suck we wont intervene but of course they decide to now.
@left ledge we’re DKs now
nicuu
you also need to use fixvx.com
oh its bluesky
They likely cant differenciate that fact
not twitter
I think everybody should just be given another 2
It was pretty obvious they did know about it and were working on it, but on the off chance, I wanted to ask anyway so I can link it to people being annoying about it.
The fact that people who "got fucked" are now ahead is kinda..... not right
Yeah, I agree. Just give everyone 2 extra.
+1 this
the people who actually got fucked are not ahead
EXACLTY this is no different than sparks last expansion instead of pulling them away they just gave everyone an extra done done
its only the people who didnt actually get fucked and got what they wanted
some of them are ahead, some are not!
that will be ahead from this
Getting any item would be an advantage
I got fucked and am now behind. I still think everyone should get 2 regardless.
But yeah
And those people ahead will smile and say crest capped. 
Like the issue is
and the people who actually got fucked dont get an item
If you spent you are either
Neutral, or ahead
People who didn't spend are now
behind
How so?
well there is one exception
if you spend in mythic
and only need 1 specific mythic piece
then you are behind
literally every single person who spent in a spot, got the same dupe, then has to go back to that spot
can still get that same dupe
guys who spent in mythic raid and missed are behind
and be the exact same as you
the ONLY way the people that spent end up behind is if they end up pulling ANOTHER duplicate if they dont and move on, there not bheind.
Our DK had 2 items as upgrades from Chim. Got the one item he couldn’t use. Now he’s back to 0/3 off the drop table.
Meeee
in guy's framing the people who didn't spend should also be "neutral"
guys who spent in mythic raid and hit are giga ahead
hmmmmm
I rolled Myth belt on Chimmy M. It did not get logged onto the thing, so I can roll it again. I am still 1/4 after a week of it, instead of 1/3.
the way they are doing it ends up with the most parity between the playerbase overall
it does suck
but the entire situation sucks
also most people who spent in mythic raid will have missed
I also cannot roll again on the boss this week, so I am now forever a week behind on getting gaze at a maximum potential rolls
so most are behind
neutral at best or behind, cuz if you managed even 1 item from your rolls, and then u get refunded your ahead, if you didnt spend ur misisng out on pontentially 3 rolls
Instead of it being 4 weeks max, it's now 5 weeks max
clearly Blizzard needs to cross reference all of the BIS lists on wowhead and adjust according. Let the rest of the game burn instead of just giving everyone another 2.
if you spent, got a refund, and get a new item with the refund: ahead
if you spent, got a refund, get the same item: neutral
if you spent on a mythic boss, didn't get what you wanted, and can't roll again this week: behind
if you didn't spend: neutral
and again like idk what other people's situations look like
also yes, every person who rolled and got a refund are now just a week behind rolling in raids
i spent on mythic raid and got ahead
but i dont have crests to spend on items these new tokens will give me
wayyy too many crests
literally only people who got the one thing they wanted from a boss and dont have to go back there are ahead
i dont even have crests to spend on the items i already have
I plan to spend in Nexus with my refund but I won't have crests for anything I get for potentially 2 weeks.
let alone new items
you forgot, spend and got something you want for mythic
the rolled item(s) during the bug are not in blizz database, so they can still be rolled with new rolls, but only once
I still think they should just give it to everyone because fuck it.
Oh I see
+1
Clearly the solution is to just roll gaze in vault.
The best way to solve this system is to have a time machine and fix it before it happens. No other option will make everybody happy so just make the most people happy.
not around these parts pal
wouldnt have happened
the best fix is to give everyone a roll, so everyone gets a benefit
Yeah
we already pointed out how that doesnt benefit everyone
then the people who didnt roll are giga ahead though
the 2nd best is to give only those who got duplicates the roll back
like every single one will be ahead
that just puts the people who actually got bugged behind even more
Thats the thing it actually is simple! Just give out 3 extra rolls n GG it. People who spent get their rolls back, people who didnt spend dont feel absolutely cheated by blizz.
Yes, if you gave everybody 2 extra rolls, the ones most punished would be the original people who didn't get something since they would have only 2 tiems scratched off while everyone else got 4.
there are no "real" fair solution to this situation
why would it be 3?
the 3rd best is to give everyone who did roll before the fix a refund
that doesnt work though
say i rolled once on a boss and got an item
cuz i think at the highest % other than 2 people could of spent 3 unless uw ere saving extra coins
well it depends where you rolled and if you get lucky
Should give out one to everyone. The worst case is you got a single dupe
but its not the item i needed so i go to that boss next week
and now i roll that same item again bc it wasnt properly removed during the bug
this is going to be me on reset
anyone who rolled in raid can roll that same item next week
Hey all are the rogue bugs fixed already or is cloud cover still better?
cloud cover is still better it is very strong
Blizz now about the energy bug and are working on a fix
if you rolled raid your fucked regardless so its a sum 0
fancy a second undreaming god's oozing vestige by chance 🍷
nah, it's going to give me another belt
I'm going to become an FF character
well except you're less fucked the way they did it than any other way thats being suggested
its just people the bug didnt effect mad that a very small number of people will benefit
while for most people its just helping them not be fucked
I didn’t roll raid since we’re gonna start extending. I rolled on pit and got 2 useless items.
Give me more rolls blizz
I'm gonna use both my refund runs in Nexus and get both rings and be winning
kthx
if you got your rolls back or everyone got 2 rolls back IT DOESNT matter you still got your rolls, but half the people get extra rolls while the other half dont get any extra
imagine you rolled raid and missed, then they gave everyone 2 tokens, you watched other people who rolled after the fix go into dungeons and get new items since their dupe pool is filled, then you go into raid next week and get the same shit item again with your 2 refunded tokens
you understand
that if you get everyone 2
the people who are currently -2
are still -2
2 + 2 = 4, -2 + 2 = 0
thats only in the Specific scenari if they manage a DUPLICATE item again
2 + 2 = potato
ye, they would need to add everyone to the list retroactively
its just not feasable
thats why they used the 3rd
how does that even make sense if you spent 2 rolls and got 2 rolls back and spend 4 your still up 2 on the week and had 4 chances at loot.
Well, I'm currently -2 so if I roll another belt do I become -4. Because I would've lost a 25% chance twice.
Which is highly likely based on duplicate loot issues already plaguing this season
the only way this doesnt play out is if you SPECIFICALLY spent in raid which in that case you are screwed anyway gg
Chim has 4 items. I have a 25% chance to get an identical item on my roll on reset.
you understand this will be most people correct
like
and this is just raid
not even including people who rolled keys
in keys you have an even LESS chance to get a dupe since most keys have several items
you're also using more rolls in that key
i already got a dupe from my key
i rolled twice while it was bugged, got shoulders both times
rolled again after it was fixed, got shoulders again
Did you actually get the refund or use vault currency?
vault

i had tokens i hadnt spent on a socket yet
triple shoulders roll is devious
That's awful
I love hearing fatality before clearing the login screen
so you had 3 attempts at loot, now you'll get another loot and if you hit on all 3 or even 2 you basicly ahead. i could use all 3 of mine and get nohting but i dont get the added benefit of 3 more rolls
A few lucky people will be up; most will end up gtting an item they rolled earlier because it wasn't crossed off.
i literally cant be ahead
Did you see my reply from CS.
if i get two unique items on both of my next rolls
no, what happened?
im 3/3
That’s like shadow priest azerite shoulders bfa diabolical
your specific situation isnt everyone im talking about an entire population of people you arent even a sample
you quite literally said "you"
The other you
the royal you
Keep up
But that legit sucks, Bel. Absolutely bullshit rng
its like this:
- If you spend your bonus roll on a mythic boss, and won't be able to spend another roll ❌ You are behind
✅ Everyone else is getting extra loot from the bonus roll resets!
ofc if you only need 1 item in mythic, you are behind 1 week because of the missing database entry.
but its just not the one that helps the most people
no i want a solution that benefits the MOST people
its the one that helps you
giving everyone MORE rolls benefits EVERYONE. Refunding rolls only benefits the people that spent!
giving everyone rolls doesnt benefit the people who actually need to benefit
its just you wanting to profit off the situation lmao
Arguably the solution that benefits the most people is impossible, so the next best solution is the one that remedies the impacted parties the best. Which would be what Blizz are doing.
what do you think is actually higher? people who spent in the first 3 hours or people who heard there was a problem and havent spent their tokens?
it was a bug for like a full 24hrs
it was bugged an entire day
not 3 hours
also not all of us had a choice
my guild reclears on reset day
if i dont roll in mythic raid then i dont get the chance
I spent mine the morning on Wednesday btw, in the EU. It was fixed, uh.. 8PM UK time or something I think?
ye it wasn't fixed until almost 30 hours later
the solution benefits everyone that spend it early
it was around for ages
kinda
but the info on the bugged rolls was out well before 24s we knew about it DURING raid and we raid 30m after servers come up
We forced 16 people to roll on Chim. 1 g o t gaze
I spent one right away and didn't find another m+ group so I saved the other then found out about the bug.
ok but like are you just going to skip a week on rolls because it's bugged?
servers came up 5pm tuesday my time, bug was fixed by 10pm wednesday my time
you still delay yourself a week on getting gaze
I only had time to do ChimM on Wednesday so I guess I should just not raid at all
we aren't going to hold our chimaerus reclear until after the bug is fixed
so you spend it elsewhere?
When did Blizzard acknowledge the bug?
thursday lol
cool you spent it knowing there was a bug sounds like its on you
Thank you.
Actually it's on Blizzard, not me.
There was literally reddit most within the first 2 hours of server launch saying there was problems we heard about it during raid and advised nayone not rolling in raid to not spend
