What haste are you at and did you SIM with haste flask holy
Link the sim
Oh it's dslice
lol
Yes and god bless it once you see those shadowstrike crits
anlaki..
do we actually go on all specs double prism enchant?
Is the trink good from skyreach
Have it on 276
To replace the void renown one
Sim says is better
if sim say is better then is better
Hope so xd
sims are a bit unreliable about haste
or maybe it knows something we don't
but other than that sims are good
Probably the plan. Will sim it later
Does this look bad? I dont have Guidon, its puzzle + solarflare atm
(thats without oils, without flasks)
debating if I should lower the haste (if possible), so i land on 800ish with haste flask+oils?
I understood 800 is the breakpoint w/o guidon, right? 🙂
if you can do this then do this
so rather 8xx instead of 770 or so
yup
got ya!
It's a good day to be a rogue
Whys that @keen dome ? 😄
i guess cause we picked up a few crumbles from blizz' table
which is more than we usually get
i was already mentally prepared to have 30 energy penalty till like 12.1.7
do you think well see more subs again on higher keys?
ohhh is the 30energy smoke bomb fixed?
no need to pool?! 😄
ye
Oh, just in general
no because our profile kinda sucks for high keys
I just got home from work and thought "man, rogue is cool"
so u got laid last night xD
but in weekly 10-15s it's still fine
nah
im currently finishing my 15s and starting to dip the toes into 16+s... so I guess should eyeball with Sin too then?
It just had a monster of a work day and it went extremely well and also rogue is good. It's all good.
It puts stuff in perspective
i'd highly advise learning how to play sin
yes
arent u like a psychologist or smth
because overall damage sub is fine
but it's either all ST or all AoE
and lots of mobs in M+ have a prio target you need to killl
so sub kinda just kills all the random moobs
but the main dude is still alive by itself
and then its not a fun time
yea thats a shit feel, riding high on dps and u look at the purple guy and he's like on 85%
But I do have an undergrad qualification in psychology which is very useful in my job as a librarian
@short radish without oils flasks, still:
also in law. Also in criminology. also in computer science. also in sociology.
Conan The Librarian
yah so as long as you are 800
I could swap my 16haste 7crit gems to 16crit 7haste, to lower a bit more, guess that should be better
youre good
being a bit over
is also fine
you dont need to be 800 exact
if youre 820
That's what I did. I swapped my mast/haste gems to mast/crit
its not the end of the world
wait why r we aiming at 800 now
Shuriken combo
800 without guidon aka puzzlebox gaming
700 with guidon aka the proper way to be
!haste
Secret Techniques cooldown gets reduced by all haste sources, while Shadow Dances duration only gets increased by Haste Rating from gear or consumables. When using an on-use haste trinket, make sure to use it a bit before Shadow Dance to get the extended duration.
The recommended ~700 haste gives you two additional globals in Shadow Dance and Guidon will grant one extra on top of that.
Puzzle Box (mastery on use, channel) Use:
Use Puzzle box after your initial Shadowstrike/Shuriken Storm in the opener, before your major cooldowns. This means using it as if it is a 3 minute trinket.
maybe we should just state whats the end value of haste cause ppl like me who use feather r a bit confused i guess 😄
which means I always pair it with the blades?

and were still Pandas, right? Cuz of most dmg.. LOL
for Sin I tend to swap to N-elf 😄
still paying for its sins

Sorry I'm an idiot but if I have guidon , do I want to aim for 700 haste with no buffs etc or buffed?
I got there eventually!
You can aim for 674 haste without oils (+26 from them!)
700 haste pre trinket
so oils/flask is okay
even food if you have to
but ideally not food
Yeah
so going 700+ haste without oils etc is a bit overkill?
In theory any point in haste over 700, if you have guidon, that isn't haste isn't as valuable as in crit/mast. So ideally you have the ideal amount. But reality doesn't really work that way so being over isn't bad.
Unreal tbh. They just gave that to arcane np but sub nah that would be blasphemous
It's being under that is.
We hit 700 for the breakpoint of comfy room for GCD's in dance. The next one is at 1100 iirc
But if you hit 720, it's really not the end of the world.
Get to 700 -> stack crit/mastery gear as much as possible.
and enhance
Trickster: Cloud Cover’s visual effect is now only visible to the caster in all circumstances.
Now only the rogue has to die 👍
and enhance
whoops supposed to be
but get 700 haste, if youre 710 haste it's fine
Dying in my fart
if youre 720 haste drop a haste gem
please dont overthink stats
you just get what you need to get 700 or a bit above
including oils
and flask if you must
then get crit/mastery

One of the best pieces of advice for anybody.
No,you need to be exactly 700,not 1 above
This sucks because now my tank just doesn't have any clue where my cloud is
celebrated bug fixes with return to void
don't you love bandaid fixes
like why the fuck couldnt this just be an aura applied to the rogue
LIKE
THEY
DID
FOR
UHDK
helll yeah
cause fuck you ig
WHY
ARE
YOU
STILL
PLAYING
ROGUE
AND
EXPECTING
ANYTHING
DIFFERENT
?!?!!?!?

THE UNDERLYING ISSUE IS STILL THERE BLIZZARD
FUCK
AHJOAHUSIDAKSJLDHSALKJDGBSAHKJLDGSAIJKDHLSAGDJSAGDSADSA
No, no.
BECAUSE IM AN ABSOLUTE BUFFOON
It's a different issue actually, see, the issue was it was killing non-rogue players.
duh
the underlying issue is no one wants to bring a rogue and ANY ground clutter is an excuse not to
Play rogue, get fucked
no one would give a shit if we're brining 3% crit dmg
Yeah..
like why can't this read as
Activating Shadow Blades allows the Rogue to enter a deeper state of cunning, allowing attacks to apply Fazed stacking to 3 times.
Even though I gotta say that sometimes that cloud feels kinda badass ngl
why the fuck are we limited to a cloud
yes please
how often is sub in the cloud?
90
wish the cloud gave 20% damage reduction to the raid aswell
20 sec every 90sec
every 1:30 for 10 seconds
aight
10 yes
Yesterday I watched Zac proc cheat a couple of times because he tried to dip back in for the extend 
10+10
tfw gargoyle pull u out of ur cloud in pos
not that kind of mad
That he already is
Mad librarian
almost me today
Almost
oof
if I ever need to get the wifey's blood boiling that is the meme I send 😄
salhadaar when u pop interrmission and half ur raid runs into beam
angry wife happy life,no wait
We had some teenagers in the library to 'study' and they were getting very obnoxious and loud, to the extent they were told to be quieter multiple times + a few customer complaints
they almost got told to leave
Libraries aren't always quiet, but there's a limit when it impacts other customers
the hvac is kinda messed up in the library, and we just started hitting warmer temps. the AC is keeping the library at 17C 🥶
Ya cloud cover is suicide idk why they are leaving the cloud in game but at least they aren’t punishing our team with it anymore
the visual clarity is 10/10
Hard enough to get groups
Me when I cannot hear a needle drop in the library
That tracks, lmao. Libraries here have two modes: too hot, impossibly cold
What are you using to change floating damage font?
I did figure out how to isolate TTS sounds from the rest of the game effects so that was a W
Nice
I feel like when I use cloud cover I’m basically closing my eyes and feinting hoping I don’t die during cooldowns
How?
Why the hell they non-stop fixing dks and don't fix sub rogue? Wtf is going on in this game?
i just changed the font in elvui for combat text
moment
Blizz fixed TTS
Hmge, I don't have elvui
Been away for two days. Still no Rogue Hot fix huh? WILD. Blizz is wild.
Imma look for a standalone, the standard font is just not it
is this in actualy or fake news ?
Missed this if real
Dunno where u seing this 😅
Yes, those are in
wowhead post XD who knows with this many bug wouldnt surprise me if fixing one rebug/bug something else
It's fixed.
we r now casting disarm trap instead of distract
@hollow spear red arrow is the spells and damage, green controls the alerts & TTS
I read the dk thing and did not notice, u're right is fixed.
Now, when the premed bug? 🤣🤣
Never
You should not be expecting them to rework Premed until atleast 0.7, but probably next season at best
@short radish when switching to assa for some keys and back to sub for raiding for example, are you switching weapon enchants from rendorei to berserks rage too?
maybe not the correct channel for this. But do you get 1 or 2 nebulous voidcores per week?
no
As they almost never do hotfixes that would require localization of the tooltip outside of patches
2
2
at most you swap rings/necks
to get more crit
since assi doesnt have haste cap
but your stats won't be your issue with doing less damage
it will be your understanding of the spec/timings
also gotta remember that at the end of the day timing the key is more important
you failing AA by 2 minutes because you pressed black powder every pull on sub but did 200k overall
is worse than timing the key and doing 160k on assi but you've done the damage to the right mobs
I miss when we used evis instead of black powder for prio and still did good on overall 😄
Have you tried just striking the mob that need to die with apex talent and still pressing bp? 
i hate you
@lilac stag and maybe coup de grace'ing it too? 😮
adding a strike for lashe as well doesn’t hurt
im like 80% sure that it's more ST to just full strike -> evis vs shuri storm -> evis
out of dance sure you shuri storm
but yeah ss -> evis is better than ss -> evis in dance, outside dance though you just ss
fuck i hate rogue
please stop using the word shadow and secret
for every fucking ability
Fuu did a sim at one point showing strike / bp with apex was a win for prio. Idk if still is.
That’s what I’m currently doing in 18s
With more dmg in strike, prob still is
Even if I’m doing less overall on certain pulls feels good to get those prio targets down quicker
based sub enjoyer
don't listen to me and especially don't do what @tribal blade does every tier
tfw pugs dont understand prio damage and wonder why my overall is below the pad dps
Pugs don't understand damage full stop
Hey guys, kinda new to sub (back from a long break) do we play normal guidon in MM+ or heroic box ? Feels hard to play with box but i guess it goes easier with more keys
I love pugging though, gives time to watch youtube while queueing for 1hour
just play guidon
!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.
!premed
- 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)
Im pretty sure assa prio is overglazed now when youre no longer playing deathstalker. Ofc yeah its stronger than subs prio, but the main reason assa is better than sub is that the numbers are just straightup better overall
Because sub tanked a -25% aoe nerf after m0s 


damn i didnt expect it to really be that much stronger overall
Still doesn’t make any sense lol
We TANKED that
true this is our fault for not sandbagging
I just don’t understand why demo locs are able to do 20% more then everyone else
because warlock is a class that only has pure dps options so it needs to have at least one spec that is miles ahead of everyone else
because they dont have to kick duh!
But they do
good that we have a TANk spec at least right, right?!
isnt demo playing kickless atm?
are we able to sim with dungeon slice or is it better to just do 5 target
Well now after the .5 patch they only have 1 kick yes. Before that they had 2
one day
but that doesnt show in meter so that doesnt count! -pugs
Demo lock is disgusting even the bad ones are good
They do though
Idk
having aoe blind back feels sooooo good btw
well then all locks im playing with just dont use it. But ive read multiple times that demo is currently playing kickless. Just stun/fear whatever they have
the stun is their kick

don't let them gaslamp you into theyre playing kickless
but stun doesnt show in meter no? Only actauall kicks do
"maybe" lol
Logs show them anyway as interrupts
in game meter is broken
details is the same shit data no?
just reskinned
yeah
yeah logs definitely show axe toss interrupt (stun)
i almost never check logs for m+ tbh. Just checking meter although i know it sucks
i think if you p*sh you should always log yourself
be it raiding or m+
good to review shit
Raid i look at them. But M+ i did 16 yesterday and i wont go higher
!up
Idk i think its still a prio specialist beating new UH with lust on prio is not an easy feat
rare havoc apppearance
Like 2nd/3rd best melee in keys type sleeper
Yeh
also i guess only a trinket swap to play either
and maybe pants since pant enchants are agi/str instead of mainstat
Me when im a prio specialist that also does more overall
I just dont think assa prio is overglazed
It pumps in 10s!
One thing is definitely beans: me on Outlaw
Sounds illegal
40k st pog
i think its doable
Toilet break during bosses
Dnt think SD works with singular focus being the issue
Hi all, new to here. Done a bit a search here and tried a few things but coming up empty.
But seems Eviscerate greyed out and doesn't show on CDM no matter what I do.
Tried changing specs and back to sub. Tried importing different talents but no dice. Anyone successfully resolve this issue? Cheers in advance.
can you post an image of it


actually weird

Have you tried /reload just to try the turn it off and back on again strat? 
many times
there's also the whole just "blow it up and start from scratch" strat
have you tried re-importing a new cdm setup
What if u turn off addons
talents just imported from wowhead
hmmm
I dont see the point in tracking either eviscerate or backstab, but you do you ig
personally I'd still do a full reset of the cdm and try reimporting
eviscerate changes to CDG wdym
on the bar
all addons off
Well thats why youre tracking escalating blade
HI
How Subb is atm after the patch ? still behind in 17-19 than outlaw ?.
ah yea true
if you weren't playing sub last patch there's no reason to start now
come back in six months and ask the same question

xD im atm but i works hard so i didnt have time to watch news and subb feel weird atm
sub feels like doodoo because our entire rotation is bug avoidance
will it be fixed in six months? eh who knows
blizzard managed to break a spec that only has three buttons and at this point I genuinely feel like help is simply just not coming
I just didnt understand why they nerf subb weeks 1.
neither did we bud, neither did we
M0 OP
Anyway hi everyone I made my first rogue because I looked at the stats and the least played class + race combo in the game is earthen rogue - don’t understand why nobody plays this class. It’s not that bad
If you aint this majectic beast.. It's a remake angle
Im even prettier so its ok
people play what they do for a huge variety of reasons and thankfully the difference between top and bottom race+class combo is so slight it fits comfortably in the margin of error. I play a worgen because none of the alliance races were anything I wanted to play when my guild went alliance for raiding population on proudmoore so I've been a worgen ever since
now my policy is "don't give blizzard more money than I absolutely have to" so why would I pay for a race change
I guess I could just pony up the 600k or whatever it costs in in-game currency
If you're not playing on the absolute top end, you shouldn't ruin your joy (if class fantasy or rp or whatever else your race selection brings you) by going for the meta
My joy comes from playing the least meta things and outclassing the meta specs (not super sweaty but fun to do at heroic raid / +13 level)
if i had to take a guess is probably the horrific lvling experience, the class is balanced around certain talents that enable ur energy to exist so up to max lvl it feels like ur playing classic, other than that... ppl tend to favor classes with versatility (like ones that can tank/heal) or chill at solo content (like delves n such)
Undead rogue is BiS
Only 0,6%, tf ?? 
compared to what, a 5/6 hero crafted offhand dagger?
offhand dagger is literally a stat stick and not even a very good one
hero 6/6 hungering victory
ah yeah that makes perfect sense
offhand dagger is literally just a warm holding spot for an embellishment
ohh its just for temporary usage
mb I thought it would be like
bis on the long term
Fancy caster offhand that gives agi
no, offhand being huge is a bit of a trap but at this point if you have crafts laying around it's fine to send it because offhand dagger with hunt embellishment and uhhhh acuity? is what we're doing
if no one fixed this already, you have to create a new profile at the bottom left. Some spells get hard locked until new profile is made.
They'll no doubt break it again on reset with the weekly gpt hotfix though
we had issues at the launch of 12.0 and the new CDM and that was pretty commonly a solution and since blizzard is slinging more and more spaghetti from the kitchen lately I assumed it could also share a root cause and fix
I wonder what their claude bill is compared to just hiring like
five senior devs
what would be a " decent " ST sim dps wise this patch ?
I feel like there is a big plateau at around 105k
mythic you’re hitting 109-110 right now depending on luck
Do you guys think we get another buff next class tuning?
Doomer take, sub isn't bad enough to get buffed, but the other two specs are climbing
that was mostly the intention to cover the marks dps loss but probably wasnt needed
Does cloud cover do any deffensive effects? ( untsrgetable.. or so..)?
that and the cloudcover 30 energy bug was stalling the opener anyway for a few seconds so
Can you do this with having 700 haste?
My brain forgot the 30 cloud clover energy bug and I was inting myself in keys last night
I am very curious next season what they will do when they take away the 4-set bonus. Not only its a huge bonus on our main CD, but also Cloud Cover last for 20 secs, exactly the same as the buffed Shadowblades
they dont think so much ahead i guess
Dpsing 400k in burst and 5k in nonburst is kinda firemage play= so fun for me, i can focus on tactisc and deffensives:D Firemage Legion nostalgia
Reduces damage you take from the target by 15% instead of the usual 5%
i have 684 so yeh
!bug
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
Also i find hard to fill 2x ST in SB bcs of this energy delay:/
without consumes?
with oils
beautiful
can i see ur stats
was doing first key with new sub and in MT under cloud walked into that cricle that stunned and ported me up 😄
fun stuf
yea pugging with smokebomb is gonna be aids i alr know
it rly is "jesus take the wheel" moment when we burst
You’re crazy mobile during cloud
well nobody else sees it now afaik
You get a huge speed burst from dance and fade to nothing
true but still doesnt help much if i dont se where im going 😄
that just means i might fck up faster
just don't 4Head
also damn stealthi outsims me by 1.8k
might be panda diffy
well only like 500 dps is maybe
+500 from alleria neck 
Place good clouds and use your speedyboots to maintain buff 
kinda jealous of people getting 2 additional voidcores while i dont because i waited 
Dont worry i rolled 2 items i already have anyways

Yeah people seem to forget that part about the granted rolls
My friend on the other hand completly robbed the dungeon
even people that didnt get dupes get the 2 cores
if you were lucky enough and got mythic gaze you basicly skipped at least a week
I am in insane crest debt
Im like 400 something too
I haven’t used my two remaining rolls yet but that will put me right about at cap
just get mythic gaze from vault
i have no reason to send in pit
Ye there’s 3x items there I don’t want/is dupe so it’s a gamble either way, just gonna high roll ring and dagger today though
i wanted the ring and neck
only 220 in debt atm but i have a fair few hero bits still
I would really like to get the pit dagger soon
I was over 110 as orc before I swapped all my gear
Was hoping our refunded tolls would be back before the weeks. Was over
We are in Aura debt rn 
I’ll roll xenas for crit ring once I’m done with pit
my guildies got them this morning
i want more mythic items!
I mostly want dagger from pit since we aren’t gonna do myth egg
Woo
what do you use
And vers mastery dagger sounds gross
to display your gear like that
ellesmere ui
thanks^^
yeah taht shit looks clean af
Nah I’d prefer crit haste dagger
Oh shit I’m gonna have to look
well already got it week 2
xenas rings supremacy
Eh

I picked the haste mastery ring from nexus in the vault before the cloud cover change and bonus rolls 
i hope when we kill beloren and the dagger drops i get it and not the hunter
Surv is the best spec rn so prayge
not on lura
Kricks dagger is the best 
i sent my bonus rolls on pit while in outlaw spec to not get that dagger kekw
I don't have crown neck and need all haste i can get
It is if its your first myth mh 
what is the shadow/cloud situation? still 30nrg?
its fixed
lol it lasted a fraction of a fraction of most of our bugs
Yes it was tied to distract which has an energy cost
It is if you also are upgrading an outlaw weapon
They should make auto attacks benefit from Surprising Strikes since they technically grant combo points via ShT
Nimble stonks 📈
Would actually be kinda funny
Granted that would require them to fix crit dmg not flurrying
i got the extra two rolls for some reason, i "wasted" first one in raid but now i first try the neck poggers
I cant seem to figure out if we do back to back finishers or not, when apex talent procs? Like do i evis evis or do i still shadowstrike evis with max cp inside of dance?
Can someone explain how premed is a dps loss when the alternative is just taking more heals?
!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).
/startattack work? Im stopping some aa switchimg kicks in pack:(
All abilities have startattack in them automatically
Ok
If youre not auto attacking its probably because you are out of range
now i gotta use all my brain power to figure out where to spend second roll
Im waiting 1,9s for ST doing nothing to get energy and not loose stacks sometimes im not aa in this state:/
How's your other jewelry looking @hallow mortar
Trickster: Cloud Cover’s visual effect is now only visible to the caster in all circumstances.
twas a fun troll for a little
i have crafted ring, i was thinking maybe i should focus dungeons with outlaw weapon just so i can have it
§
That's a cute ring for sure
becasue even if i get ring than i wont have crest to upgrade it any time soon
hey thats what i did
got a belt and cape
the only hope i have for alleria neck is vault
I sim pit neck better then voidrofge last boss, is it common result?
ye
because it has high haste and the sim doesnt like too much haste
youd need to change your gear to stay somewhere around 700
you can make that neck work but need some playing with stats
mainly recrafting and gems should probably do the trick
it was much better early on when mastery was our best stat and we werent that high on ilvl so haste could be issue
Crit mastery gems sim better now for sub damn
guys
what potion you use ?
the sim always shows that mastery potion is better than primary stat.
dont rely on sims too much
you just want to get 700 haste and put everything else into crit/mast
main stat personally
Cant macro light potential both- silver and gold quality:( isnt it in faq?:(
you need to use their item ID
is there a big difference between using the gold tier flasks/potions compared to the lower quality ones in raids ?
lmao
Probably just wants a giga blast run
Yeah some % dps, depends if you want blue or purple-gold logs results.
I pref gold for logs and silver for progres:D dont want ruin myself on 100 pulls :x
myth puzzle beating hero guidon thats crazy isnt it
barely above margin
You mastery starved or something
its year of crit
im just thinking where to send the second bonus roll, since i pulled neck from pit first try
They should Change item Drop in +15 or higher being mythic Track
and i will be rolling raid next week
it does want me to recraft my dagger/belt/legs to crit haste but all that for 800 dps in single target how much does that actually hurt my damage in raid with AoE etc
they said all refunds have been processed and i didnt get any 
naa just make the keys actually a challenge again they're far too easy this season
i did, got pit neck for free roll 😄
You got any cata charges? could always hint myth tier?
when did you use your original roll?
tuesday
oh
like 2 hrs after server came up
than i think you should get it
idk why i get it when i spend it in raid, cant complain tho
i wont be that upset if i dont because we rolled gaze
but i might as well try
your item wont be in dupe pool for next week
so you're behind a week
for sure, but im missing only head and chest and those im likely gettingh from raid too
thats not cool ryldd
i rolled boots on first boss
ya its very sad
i will ping you and call it on you
is it too late to bonus roll ur vault if you opened it before turning in quest
you just cursed me
I have 4 non myth slots
3 of them come from pit
we gonna eat good if we get a refund
nice
you wont have crests anyway
ye ik
off to a good start
but good thing is that you can keep rolling them
I used first bonus roll on myth Dreamrift, and bought 1 bonus roll for next try.
Next reset Am I able to 2x roll on Gaze? Is it even worth?🙈
i will have every slot myth like 2 weeks before im done with crests
no you can only kill mythic bosses once a week
so you cant roll twice
Cant roll twice 🥶saad
So we all going for crit now instead of mastery?
so where do i send my second roll team
im actually thinking about farming that box
I really wanted to fill in more of my slots with myth but i needed my gaze. so next weeks job is filling in the slots and getting further in crest debt 😄
I would do head item or chest
so NPX or something
Has puzzle box started simming lower for yall in DSlice after 12.0.5?
All of a sudden Guidon is simming higher in Dslice?
Is this with rings set dmg bonus? Quite sad when 1 of my rings is heroic.
? What when?
Hello,
Quick question, can we still use this macro?
#showtooltip
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Shadow Blades
/cast Secret Technique
/use Light's Potential
/use 13
/use 14
Found it on the wowhead guide, but i read somewhere that we shouldn't bind light company gideon
Depends on trinket definetly not guidon
Fuck
surely deepening shadows bug gets fixed on tuesday
I guess because it doesn't apply the haste buff to ST and SD?
Check mail
No bcs in this macro your shadow dance will be 6,5 s and not 8s.. bug of cooldown haste u have to wait after guidon
THAT'S on the wowhead guide??
So is it a bug, or a feature now?
@vale pine maybe a disclaimer here regarding Guidon?
I'll remove it then, and try to remember to press it before :p
also even without the bug trinket should be before dance
You spent one when bug was active and one after it was addressed?
Roger
you only got two if both rolls were spent during the bug period
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
Read bugtrack for it
Why we dont play premed? Bcs of some bug or only for 8% heal bonus??
good idea, not only guidon but also feather and puzzle box
any haste on use needs to be used 1 sec before
hi sorry if it's posted somewhere but how do i find the spread sheet of how much of a %increase are the raidbuffs
i think there was the increase of sub law and assa in that spreadsheet
alas, my second nexus roll was the cloak
but I want the crit 
i wish i was within 24 lmao
on mainhand
just eclipsed 1k crit
that one still has crit
actually
with Occlusion I might be able to do some magic
bc I'll actually have more than 24 extra crit when I max wedding ring
Nice
fun things abound
its also kinda fun to do without sims
actually nexus might be goated bc if I get chest/boots I can cata to myth, or I get either ring or a myth dagger
not ideal with vers but hey
!fuu

Q: Let's say I'm a minute into a fight, energy is tight and Dance/Secret are both like 6 seconds away from CD, what should I do leading up to hitting those
nothing
just autos
if energy is tight just chill
ight it FEELS wrong but good to know
press backstab if you're over 60 energy
plus you'll bank sht
or so
ye
and full cp
basically just to not overcap energy
you'll get Master of Shadows energy plus it'll start rolling in from ShT as soon as you hit dance
is it true that in every situation, I'm pressing ST on cooldown?
lining ST with Dance as much as possible
I rolled on nexus... got boots and catalyze them, and cloak not great but minor upgrade, next week also will roll on nexus hoping for dagger, rings or gloves for the catalyst. Finger crossed not to get the chest
and not pressing it if blades cd <10sec
I'm fumbling something because my Dance and ST aren't always on the same CD sometimes theres like a few seconds between
641
working on it xD
dance and sectech cd should be more or less synched even at 641
im fumbling something then I think, I've only done a few boss pulls on sub so far
ill figure it out
ye if they're a few seconds off it might just be a downstream thing from how you pressed them in blades
so outside of opener, im hitting Dance+ST, and I SHOULD be ensuring I have enough energy when they come off CD so it's fine to just auto attack to let that regen
not the end of the world
if you just don't press finishers when dance/sectech are 2-4 sec remaining cd you'll have plenty of energy
and you'll naturally pool a few shadow techniques stacks going into cooldowns which is good
im aware of the stacks and the apex for now but im lowkey kind of ignoring until I have the core rotation locked in
yeah that's totally fine, the optimization stuff can come later and its very easy to adopt
so when Blades is coming off CD, I vanish into Shadowstrike > Blades > Dance + ST for the 1.5m into the fight moment?
or is it vanish > blades> strike or what
ill ignore for now
if you're prepping for your 1.5min blades you'll be at full cp generally
i know this stuff is in the guide it just helps stick in my mind when I can actually say it correctly
vanish is a nice utility button for certain things like ignoring/evading targeted spells
so ignoring vanish 1.5m into a fight its Blades into Dance + ST and normal rotation
not yet
hey guys do yall recommend that wowhead sub m+ talent build? need some OP ST/M+ Builds. Murlok has so many diff ones...
gaze and undreamt lol
ah then ye you'll pretty much just jump into blades/dance/sectech then at 6+ cp
how much dps loss is it to not apex supecharge ST?
its kinda whatever since the clones don't proc any kind of clone and that's the big damage of secret technique
so its the 1% type shit
if that
and during dance im never wasting globals, im just rotating shadowstrike evis on CD and never waiting for anything?
hey guys, is there anyway to jump in skyreach last boss?
the phys hit still does damage, but apexing it or not is not really much of a notable benefit
yeah you want to be as gcd-efficient as possible in dance
Are we playing premed again?
appreciate you haptics thanks my guy
np np happ to help 🫡
heres an aura farm photo as payment for your help
how did u get the void wings
void elf racial set
yuh
they are part of the chest piece "Ren'dorei Mantle" so if you really wanted you could stack wings on wings on wings from the shoulder and back pieces
It's a loss of like .5% so it's up to you
think premed feels better for single target pulls, but in a m+ im opening with aoe almost every time. So maybe premed raid single target fights?
Is solarflare trinket better now with the crit?
Insanely high attack speed
aha
Not just of daggers but of rogue
Slice and dice, and multiple attack speed passives exist
!premed
- 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)
Plus the fact that we have like 20% haste now
incredibly stupid
!stats
The following is a general recommendation, but you will always get more accurate results through simming your gear through Top Gear.
Single Target / Mythic+: Haste(~18%, roughly 650-700) > Critical Strike = Mastery > Versatility`
if you forget to repair inbetween dungeons you're donezo
stocked up on auto-hammers now
it should be better now that we switch away from warning sign
So we go for crit now instead of mastery?
In raid, yes; in M+, no
crit single target, mastery aoe
yes, slightly more crit heavy on single target
and slightly more mastery heavy in dungeons
i've got a quick question for you since you're here, does the haste breakpoint of around 700 assume you have one of the haste trinkets to make use of the extra globals or is 700 haste the breakpoint and the haste on-use just icing on the cake?
Crit gemming still sims fairly similar for me, I guess it will matter on the items
you can use a haste flask if you are too low
i already am cause i cant get any haste gear 😭

is there any benefit to have it a little higher than 700 other than attack speed
i mean like does it give a little leeway to not fuck up
700 is the leeway point
@vale pine petitioning you to make a !puzzle command that just shows that gif 
for?
!box
Puzzle Box (mastery on use, channel) Use:
Use Puzzle box after your initial Shadowstrike/Shuriken Storm in the opener, before your major cooldowns. This means using it as if it is a 3 minute trinket.
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
So I was wondering, do I just need to be able tro press ST during Shadowblades or does it need to have a bit more time during the buff?
Because of the clones taking a bit to appear?
that woudl work too
Blizzard decided to be nice to me. I won Guidon trinket…now what? Just to test things I used it and it only reduces secret tech by 2 seconds?
It allows you to snapshot second both dances of Sblades allowing both sectechs to get in fairly easily
It simultaneously increases shadow dance length and lowers sec tech cd
You have to use it separately though because of yet another bug midnight "optimizations" in subtlety's arsenal
a bit of buff time should be remaining
bc of clones
Is sub good rn for m+ or is it worse than the other 2?
It’s good
Is there a graphic setting that reduces the cloud cover visual? They removed it for allies but what about our own noses
It's pretty easy to see through...
That said, I think there is a spell opacity setting or similar. Just set it to zero.
Im getting pissed off so hard Do you know how i can add a sound effect when this fucking coup de grace is ready to use ?
For default UI?
because the blizzard coldown tracking doesnt allow you to select every single spell of the classes
yupp
If so, I have no idea. I track it visually
Also, your evis automatically swaps to it.
ive put particle density to low
When it's ready. If you're looking to use it on BP...
Gotcha, it does seem to fit easier
yeah but during aoe situation. having to check how many stack you have to use it is terrible
There's a macro for it.
like if at least i could add eviscerate to the cooldown tracking
to see a logo at the middle of the screen
I just spam my evis macro until my CP are depleted
if it procs I press it twice, it it doesn’t (CP at 0) i’ll continue as usual
I’m struggling with green ground aoe markers like those in POS, it’s still unnecessarily harder to spot
mmh
Aaah. Then yeah, mess with the opacity
you do know its in your CDM
Like cloud cover has a faint green, and it makes me second guess whether it’s just the cloud cover or some other ability hiding
So, that dagger pointing downward? That's the counter. Once it hits 4 your next evis is a coup.
yes i know that
but i wanted to add a sound but it proc at 1 stack which is totally useless
not eviscerate (to have a big icon switching to coup de grace)
Try tracking your CP instead of the buff, that’s what works for me personally
im t alking about the stacking aura, its not hard to just see it hit 4 stacks, idk what to tell you
!opener
The following opener is recommended without Premeditation:
Shadowstrike-> Vanish +Shadowstrike -> Backstab until 7 cp + Guidon -> Cooldowns
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.
There we go, that BP and Coup macro. Use that so you always hit Coup with AoE.
it is not i agree, but missing one or two coup de grace is triggering me
reason why i wanted a sound to avoid that
Your evis auto swaps when ready so no need to worry about that.
yeah use the macro above and just spam it
yes but again it mostly for aoe situation in m+ ahah
Then the macro will help you.
but it’s the same for evis no?
obviously in single we dont pay attention cause you spamm it
ah, i misread. but yeah the coup/bp macro is what you’re looking for
u can spam that one
just like evis

seems like sub is absolutely cranking right now with the change
Yup.
is it worst rogue dps spec?
Depends on the player.
I know Outlaw is also hitting hard thanks to the ~13% buff across the board
only aoe damage, not much funnel damage
on dragons during dance are we striking or storming?
I won't ever play outlaw.
it doesnt feel good
Crap playstyle.
Do we still take cloud cover?
Pretty much.
strike on 3 or less targets
I'd say striking but, double check.
Cloud is the one to take. Cracked right now for pretty much everything
last time ive played was tbc and a little bit of bfa 
Felt. I only really came back in tww
But then I was tanking. Still am, making BDK.
But wanted an alt
@final agate messaged you
Opener makes sense to me. But after first shadow dance we pop the second one within sblades, Sectec still on cd. Then sectec comes up while sblades is still up: do you sectec naked or wait for shadow dance to come up after sblade is done?
Sub rogue was always a favorite
I’m alting a resto shaman and brew tank, i love multi roleing
I feel like the play it to send sectec naked, but ideally with dance while in blades.
ur 2nd shadow dance during SB should be activated with 8s remaining on SB
That's the goal anyway.
what u think about prepull box then vanish then storm in M+ ?
!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.
it works well thank you !
Shadow Blades (SB), Secret Tech (ST), Shadow dance (SD)
- SB up? Goal is to 2x shadow dance and 2 ST during the SB window (can be achieved with 800 haste or 700 + guidon)
SB/ST/SD -> strike evi -> with 8s remaining 2nd SD -> … -> 2nd ST -> SB ends - Outside of SB? Just single ST+SD when both are up. If SB is up in 10 seconds or less you’d just wait
@hallow night
how long does dance last with guidon?
and 800 haste accomplishes the same thing?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Yeah.
Ideally 700 haste with guidon 800 if you don't have it.
gotcha was mainly asking since guidon gives like 600 haste so I guess mentally I was confused how 100 extra haste baseline accomplished the same duration but I trust the people who know better
haste ratings is about 2 things:
-
- how long dance is
-
- if you can fit 2 secret techniques in blades
700 and 800 align things well for both
thats why they are the breakpoints
Anyone got tips on what to do, craft 285 ring or upgrade gloves 289 with crests. Set gloves that is, everything points towards ring but not sure if its worth it, gloves are 279 atm
Sim it
Ring trumps all
should i use voidcores on light guidon heroic or gaze ? or just run windrunners spire and use them there
or roll for crown for neck heroic ?
dumb question trying to learn sub rn, uh the first shadowstrike is always giving me 7 combo points so am I missing something?
I won't waste them on heroics tbh
You're playing pre med
It's a 0.3% buff to not play it due to a bug
Personally not playing it feels absolutely horrible
is that ur way of saying just play it?
until that 0.3% matters, yes
