#

But that one has to be omission and 100% I get myth occlusion first which I already have

swift tinsel
#

we're finishing hc lura then its back to mythic for the rest of the season

#

will probs kill tonight

#

kinda bouncing around between raids and hc/mythic

#

not a big fan

grim wasp
#

gonna do some hc then benched after going to a party

fallow nimbus
#

When all m+ upgrades left are rings and 1 pants

swift tinsel
#

I have to hope for spire pants from vault bc nfw I'm rolling there

#

minefield of bad gear

dusky yacht
#

I can get shoulders and belt from there too at least

#

But yeah

#

It's not fun rolls

swift tinsel
#

it has a huge loot pool

dusky yacht
#

I also got myth chest in vault with leech and one of my rolls today on windrunner was chest

swift tinsel
#

4 trinkets

#

all bad

grim wasp
#

i dont know where to go got 2 rolls

swift tinsel
#

look at dungeon journal

#

and see what has what you're looking for

fallow nimbus
#

I have 1 nexus ring from vault when haste/mast was still good from before the changes

swift tinsel
#

or roll for myth gaze

dusky yacht
swift tinsel
#

I wanna go pit for neck but can still get shit cloak or duplicate legs

grim wasp
#

i got heroic gaze guess ill go for myth helm and shoulder where i have a chance to get something else too

swift tinsel
#

so its npx for safety

#

ring and outlaw mace plus maybe one or two other things

#

I forget if npx has chest slot

#

oh I can get boots from there to cata too

grim wasp
#

Maisara but risk of rolling bad makes it not worth it

swift tinsel
#

skyreach has shoulders and dagger

#

plus a few other good slots for sub

grim wasp
#

I have daggers

swift tinsel
#

way better than mc

fallow nimbus
#

All my items are like 1-2/x kekw

grim wasp
#

everything feels like a gamble at this point i guess pit of saron

#

i can avoid dagger by putting outlaw, i got ring already

swift tinsel
#

they are random rolls so PeepoShrug

#

its a gamble by design

vocal torrent
#

it is a gamble but the reality is youll probably end up with more mythic pieces then you could even upgrade anyways

grim wasp
#

neck wrist belt would be good at worst i get legs and cloak

vocal torrent
#

I havent even rolled in dungeons and after last night I have 2 pieces I cant even upgrade until next week

fallow nimbus
#

I am already at this point with 2 first boss rolls

grim wasp
vocal torrent
#

is the pit ring good Hmmm

grim wasp
#

had 2 cores refunded last weak

vocal torrent
#

Nice

grim wasp
#

pit of sauron i can avoid dagger will put outlaw let me report back in an hour hope group is not shit

fallow nimbus
#

Me too then i got the head again

somber sun
#

you can literally roll everything from pit and it would still be worth

#

except cloak maybe

fallow nimbus
#

Catalyst cloak for big mastery

vocal torrent
#

I got the saladbar neck last night from bonus roll

swift tinsel
#

ring, dagger, neck, belt, legs, bracers, all well-itemized for sub

#

plus ye can cata cloak if you need

vocal torrent
#

crit over decent haste is pretty solid

somber sun
#

do vault items count towards the roll drop table ?

swift tinsel
#

supposedly not

#

which is a little stinky but means you can just take roll from vault instead if its a m+ item you're after

#

raid a little trickier bc it takes 2x rolls

somber sun
#

yeah, wont use roll on raids for a long time. Waiting for that point where I can find a guild that does prog M raids kekw

swift tinsel
#

you can definitely game the raid rolls if you're trying for trinkets, can kill myth chim and imperator

#

but confounded if you're regularly raiding mythic

#

at least for vault cheesing

#

otherwise just pug myth chim/imperator

#

and realistically if you have hc guidon you're better off rolling on chim

#

bc hc->myth guidon is a small increase

#

bc the haste doesn't really do much going up an upgrade track

somber sun
dusky yacht
#

Tbh I prefer the way loot worked way in the past, felt like gear meant something back then. I mean I do understand the reasons for the changes but it almost feels like wellfare at this point.

somber sun
#

you already have enough at some point

swift tinsel
#

bc you still have to roll the item you actually want

#

this is a version of an old way, just without the shitty gold rolls

dusky yacht
swift tinsel

@vale pine

dusky yacht
#

How many of these cringelords we gonna get lmao

warm marlin
#

nah but how do so many people fall for this stuff

dusky yacht

It's wild

it seems like q plaque lately

dusky yacht
vale pine
#

reminder

#

don't click on links people send you

abstract cosmos
#

FINALLY

swift tinsel
#

I've seen some other discords have auto-ban channels that can catch them if a message is posted in it

vale pine
#

especially if they are sus. (don't click the link, you will regret it)

dusky yacht
#

I had a person some time ago they added me out of nowhere and then they were like "I'm really looking for people to try this new game with me uwu" lmao instant block

swift tinsel
#

but that requires them to talk in that channel which they don't always message

shrewd lantern
#

I just post thugshakers

vale pine
shrewd lantern
#

to people asking about commission art

#

yet never watermark

#

or reply with nudebarber content

vale pine
#

to be fair

#

its harmless

dusky yacht
shrewd lantern
#

i used to just link scammers

#

to screamer links

vale pine
#

the problem is, these scammers do upload the images

dusky yacht
#

I love those videos of that hacker that hacks scammers and then lets them know he's watching them on their own webcams/video cameras

vale pine
#

so all i could do is check how many pictures someone attaches

#

and remove messages with a certain amount automatically

#

sounds like it could easily get false positive stho

dusky yacht
#

trying to help someone, posts 4 screenshots
it gets deleted
Damn you, fuu, damn you..

vale pine
#

haha exactly

azure thicket
#

yeah if you're way off the bis setup sim will give odd results

#

but dps gains is gains

dusky yacht
azure thicket
#

just y'know

dusky yacht
#

I've seen some high parsers actually use some versa gear

#

It's been confusing me

azure thicket
#

vers is good in pvp sub rogue it makes sense with high uptime

swift tinsel
dusky yacht
azure thicket
#

a few seasons ago outlaw the vers/crit/haste enjoyer

#

was using house of cards in title keys

#

cause they were always fighting and benefited from main gauche procs lol

shrewd lantern
#

and crits are only 150% in pvp

#

rather than 200

swift tinsel
#

outlaw mastery is...so eh

shrewd lantern
#

if anything your uptime in pvp is low

#

because people will spam cc you

vale osprey
limber folio
#

first boss AA pad

somber sun
#

bro why are evokers so low on dps everytime

limber folio
swift tinsel
#

sometimes a lil energy from fatal flourish

#

and its named after a defensive weapon

foggy estuary
#

Im parsing great when i changed guidon for pbox, but im resi 14 casul as well

dusky yacht
foggy estuary
#

It depends on how many pulls on the dung ur tank makes and if they bring adds to bosses.

dusky yacht
#

Well yeah but they will do a bit more dps there then the people using it, sure, but at what cost

#

There are also downsides to it

foggy estuary
#

Personally i have both and perform miles and leaps better with pbox. But i guess it depends on alot of other vars 🙂

foggy estuary
dusky yacht
#

I mean in that one fight maybe yeah, but it doesn't line up with blades, you might miss kicking a cast or whatever while casting it, ...

void ocean
#

whats the value of Singular Focus raid buff for this week

foggy estuary
fair cedar
#

Best races for sub pve raid ?

dusky yacht
foggy estuary
#

Im joking, i know what u mean bruv. But without premade group i just wanna blast and have fun

dusky yacht
raw frost
#

are there expected tunings this week

foggy estuary
#

Im not doing 20s, max i get i think is 3.4 without premade. Im 3.2 now

#

Guild is playing diablo now🥲

#

Any min max tips for myth vorasius and chim?

swift tinsel
azure thicket
#

in bg blitz mastery is played for the burst

void ocean
swift tinsel
#

Singular Focus isn't a raid buff

#

also we don't play deathstalker

void ocean
#

dude its that qyest u pick up

#

at the enterance

swift tinsel
#

the raid buff is 3%

void ocean
#

alright thats whan i wanted to know tnx

#

its also called singular focus

#

at leadt the vs one

swift tinsel
#

lmao thats so troll to name a raid buff after a rogue talent

#

hahahahahahahahahahaha

#

holy shit

#

thats like

#

legit cinema

sage pond
#

Can someone please tell me what race is simming highest for them? I know it’s miniscule but I’m curious and don’t have time to even get to the pc and sim it myself for the next hours. Thanks in advance

grim wasp
#

Pit wrist 1 roll left

somber sun
grim wasp
somber sun
#

I told him vorasius

#

Chim is kinda same

#

Just get assigned to the second soak group

grim wasp
#

chim generally if i have some secs off for sd sectech or blades comming im shadow stepping on a range dps and back on to chim aint got time to down add

#

leaving that for mages

somber sun
#

Yeah

buoyant umbra
#

anyone know how i can make the black bars darker so they are easier to see

grim wasp
#

its like on some bosses i hear raid leader say interupt but i dont even know what was being cast

swift tinsel
#

can search for it in the menu and adjust to whatever % you'd like it

somber sun
#

Atleast 5 interrupts are cast when needed on the same unit kekw

#

Bro btw

#

There is a trick on crown

#

For p2 when you are getting pulled in

#

If you use a toy that makes you sit/force position you ignore all cc OMEGAKEKW

grim wasp
#

700 haste is with haste flask right?

somber sun
#

Nah

#

If you lack yeah

#

But you want to get that point naturally

grim wasp
#

ah i was trying to reduce my haste to 550 and then use a haste flask

#

it is not good to do this? reduce it to 550 pumping crit and mastery then use haste flask?

somber sun
#

You can yeah

limpid jacinth
#

is it just me or does sub rogue perform worse in m+ after the .5 patch?

grim wasp
dense geode
#

Feelsgood early without gear feels bad late vs things like sin rogue

#

idk if true or not but i def feel that way too lol

swift tinsel
#

it happens often

somber sun
#

It's not thaaat bad, but it's def true

swift tinsel
#

there's typically still fights that prefer sub but it has a tendency to fall off as others get gear or timers shift

#

and keys sin is often good as mobs live longer

#

in higher keys

vale osprey
swift tinsel
#

and outlaw is tuned quite well so its pulling ahead too

somber sun
#

Thankfully we can easily swap between specs with current gear

vale osprey
somber sun
#

And atleast one spec is performing contrary to having all 3 specs bottom tier

dense geode
#

yea really enjoy the crit/haste changed made I do wish vcersatility can become something else or better in the future

grand summit
#

Do the sims calculate for haste right

#

im like way below haste but if I sim haste belt over my crt belt it just says straight DPS loss

somber sun
#

What's your belt currently?

#

Also it takes into account yeah

fiery fog
#

do i buy boe legs guys

#

they are pretty good ngl

timid rose
vale osprey
fiery fog
#

1m

vale osprey
#

Oh that's not horrible

#

But no

#

Surely you're not able to spend all your myth crests anyway rn

fiery fog
#

i still have 100 crests
the only legs that are comparable are alleria and WS

dense geode
#

sim crafted

vale osprey
#

Also true, crafted Vs 1m gold

timid rose
#

i'll probably end up with crafted while i fish for the ones from pit

swift tinsel
#

idk if I'd use crests on crafted legs if you're hunting for them

#

bc you can get hero version which are still quite good

#

with how much myth gear you can get now from rolls using 80 on a slot you're looking to replace seems a bit troll

somber sun
#

Getting all pos myth track gear after rolling for trinket would be the optimal play right ?

#

Say all, cause I will surely get the cloak kekw

grand summit
#

vs Myth Pit Belt

lusty narwhal
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
somber sun
edgy imp
#

anyone gonna farm boe Power Stance Breechers in mythic to get BIS myth legs ?

swift tinsel
#

since they're random stat rolls that sounds like a nightmare to farm

edgy imp
shrewd lantern
#

most people would farm them for gold

#

especially since you can get 2 pairs of decently statted pant from bonus rolls now

cold trellis
#

A question, is sim correct. I sim 2k more with 500~ haste(with 1100 crit) instead of 677 haste (889 crit) I thought untill 700 I should have more haste? idk :d

#

Is crit so much better now? 🤔

shrewd lantern
#

sim drops below recommended haste

#

since it can hit the 0.1s gcd

#

unlike humans often

cold trellis
#

So I should not care and go for 700 haste anyway?

silent sphinx
#

how should i be using puzzle box and emberwing? not ideal combo but my best gear rn

shrewd lantern
#

get the renown trinket from voidstorm

#

and use pb

sweet moss
#

hasve u guys recrafted for crit/haste instead

#

?

timid rose
silent sphinx
#

or can you get this renown trinket higher than champ?

swift tinsel
shrewd lantern
#

renown trinket is better

#

than most

#

besides plume and gaze

silent sphinx
#

ill sim it (and im new so im still learning) but it seems wild that a 13 ilvl loss is dps gain

shrewd lantern
#

maybe solarflare is better

#

than the crucible

swift tinsel
#

it might be now

fiery fog
#

im pretty sure hero flare is 0.0% (against crucible)

swift tinsel
#

it was a full 1% behind equal track gaze

#

so prism is a very solid alternative if you can get a myth one while seeking a myth gaze

dusky yacht
#

I'm curious, would it be a good idea to switch finality for rotten for raid?

swift tinsel
#

why are you wanting to?

#

rotten buffs strikes during cloud which are contingent on crit to do really big dam, but still do solid dam when it doesn't crit

dusky yacht
#

Well since it's not really like pure AoE constantly and you end up back on boss etc

lilac stag
#

There’s maybe 2 fights worth keeping finality on, if you go pp

dusky yacht
#

Yeah

lilac stag
#

just embrace boss dmg parses

dusky yacht
#

I guess I'll switch it see how it goes

#

Actually I just copied the tree, gave it diff name, now I can switch depending on the boss fight

toxic igloo
#

What % behind is Deathstalker over Trickster?

dusky yacht
toxic igloo
#

So it's probably ok to run if you doing chill keys

dusky yacht
rich spade
#

Is deathstalker’s funnel worth it though?

grim wasp
#

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

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 WoWhead or IV Icy Veins.

grim wasp
#

worth putting a shadowstrike vanish shadowstrike macro?

#

lazy to press vanish

warm marlin
#

I got my voidcore refund Cinema Cinema

#

W blizzard support

vale pine
#

nice

warm marlin
#

(we do not tell them that i rolled mythic gaze with said tokens and giga profited even if they didnt refund them)

vale pine
vale pine
#

its like this

#

if you macro vanish + strike

#

you press it

#

you vanish, but don't strike

#

so need to press it a 2nd time to use shadowstrike

#

it is the same behaviour dance has (now, but did not have in the past)

grim wasp
#

I tried blackpower and coup de grace macro prefer to press them manual

shrewd lantern
#

sub isnt a funnel spec

vale pine
#

you don't need seperate presses

quaint lodge
vale pine
#

its just sometimes annoying, when you want to use BP

quaint lodge
red flame
vale pine
#

but fail to do so because coup is up and you are out of range

red flame
#

But works great tho

vale pine
#

it works well

#

if you make sure to stay in melee

#

and tab target/click to keep focusing the closest target

grim wasp
shrewd lantern
vale pine
#

it does use coup de grace if its up

shrewd lantern
#

play a real funnel hero tree like AR havoc

quaint lodge
timid rose
shrewd lantern
#

might as well not

#

esp since sub if anything is anti funnel

#

sectech yeeting shitter mobs

#

until some wannabe tank that watches yoda or kira 5h a day claims some cope about prioing evis

young path
#

So progging paladins and feeling the 3 target slump….

Started messing with simc and builds into raid bots and goremaws bite sims substantially higher when combined w/mastery flask…

2 questions

Am I crazy?

And…

How in the world does one properly weave goremaws bite into the rotation?

quaint lodge
#

Also
A: maybe
b: you can go down to the bottom and see when the sim is usng goremaws to figure it out

young path
#

Unfortunately not at the moment because I’m at the office

#

It doesn’t show it even being casted

warm marlin
#

goremaw's doesnt cleave at all

young path
#

Will throw it up when I get back

#

It’s the energy it free’s is what I’m thinking

#

(Next 3 finishers free)

graceful rock
#

Energy isn’t really a bottle neck unless outside of dance

young path
graceful rock
#

What did you remove for goremaws?

young path
#

Finality

#

If I remember correctly

graceful rock
#

I mean PP with mastery flask might just be carrying the sim

young path
#

Sim went from patchwerk 3 target at 166k to 173k

#

I probably should have waited to be at the house before bringing this up

somber sun
shrewd lantern
#

Yeah then they nerf dance

somber sun
#

Nah they won't, rogue is not that good..right ?

shrewd lantern
#

if anything dance uptime is too high rn

Kind of annoying

warm marlin
#

myth crest achieve means you need infinite pieces to upgrade

graceful rock
#

They gave me the beloren ring

plush roost
#

Ring belt neck and legs i need to upgrade

graceful rock
#

And I was like “I actually don’t need this”

warm marlin
#

i have 4 slots that are hero track left, + my 2 crafts

#

i need 3 of those for next week

swift tinsel
#

Next time they gotta remove crest cap with core release

warm marlin
#

or else i need to send myth on craft which is shite

I think I’m sending my bonus rolls on the nxp rings

Yeah we had the weakaura office hours post belo kill on Tuesday

Ah tuff

#

Best advice i can give

#

Just do mech

#

And win

warm marlin
#

we have 4 days next week

legally allotted extra day on the final/penultimate raid week of the tier

#

maybe dies? idk how p3 prog looks

plush roost
#

Its a choke check imo

#

We had so many wipes to people panicing on memory game

graceful rock
#

I think I’m being forced on sub

plush roost
#

You could legit take a shower during memory game

graceful rock
#

There’s not enough data for my case

plush roost
#

And come back and clear

warm marlin
#

its a bit nice, usually our guild are mechanic gods and struggle with damage stuff

#

some depressing wipes on paladins/alleria/beloren was looking a bit grim

vale pine
warm marlin
#

lura looking hopeful

plush roost
#

Damage check is still kindof there

warm marlin
plush roost
#

If u dont wanna play 2nd last memory game

i am guessing we just play that one out

plush roost

Which is 1 light memory game

#

Yeah we played it

warm marlin
#

and all live p4

plush roost
#

On our .4% pull

#

And then found about 5% boss hp on our kill

#

And skipped

#

Im so pisses btw

#

My entire p3 lura

#

Shadowstrike crit on only weapon masters and apex hits

strong shoal
#

@vale pine Is alleria neck anything special (heroic)?

plush roost
#

So just negative dps

strong shoal
#

i dont raid mythic

vale pine
#

but its not that huge

strong shoal
#

its like "cool" to have

#

i see

#

ty!

vale pine
#

so its esssentially a regular neck with like 0.2-0.3% worth of extra dps from the effect

#

it is also very haste heavy

#

which makes it easy to hit your haste target

#

of roughly 700

plush roost
vale pine
#

e.g. even a normal version has ~200 haste (when fully upgraded)

warm marlin
#

one of my beloren burns was 1/13

#

with 35% crit (plus all the bonuses to builder crit chance)

shrewd lantern
#

i love 13% strike crit burns

plush roost
warm marlin
#

ye who doesnt love omega crit damage right

#

the variance of going from a no crit, no wm proc, no AA proc hit of 60k to a crit, wm proc, aa proc literally 1M+ damage strike is very cool!

vale pine
#

just crit more

#

good rogues crit more often than others

lilac stag
#

@strong shoal it’s good. But to sum it you likely have to drop hate elsewhere and redraft pieces to crit mastery

#

It’s close to a 2k upgrade fin my current heroic neck with redrafts

it's a gamble

over time it evens out to be high dmg

what to u mean with over time

this is a 4:30 fight

or rather 5

swift tinsel

that's how averages and rng work

sometimes the dmg is lower, sometimes higher

but as n increases it evens out over time

sometimes your rotten strikes and/or their apex clones crit, sometimes not

that the one which im missing

quick question for second shadow dance window when popping blades when do u know u can pop another dance with it being the same cd as tech

swift tinsel
#

!blades

wicked joltBOT
#

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.

swift tinsel
#

if you have guidon it helps shorten the cd of sectech

#

bc of the haste infusion further reducing its hasted cd

im just saying like

above that percentile wise

not your picture specifically

But the part that's bs is he's higher dps than me but 5% less percentile like what

Not saying he played badly it's just like why

dense geode

ye well theres like a billion ret logs

and because when players die the ret gets to "pad" more damage

The class is very strong tho rn none the less

I think we're just weak af rn tbh

We def aint strong but I wouldnt say weak

we just dont do anything outside of damage

guidon is still our bis trinket

Where do people get their info sometimes I wonder

left ledge
#

puzzle is good for m+

#

i prefer to use it over guidon for big aoe dungeons

#

but outside of that and generally guidon is insanely good for sub

#

enables your rotation, literally

hexed wave
#

so i got both guidon and puzzle hero pieces, unfortunately not in mythic and it kills me in sadness, but puzzle u recommend for more m+ situations right? as sub? thankful to still have it even as heroic tho case i roll assa too

alpine wraith
#

you kinda need to know which dungeons

small sleet
#

I still think you just run guidon in every dungeon

#

It’s not worth giving up single target just to pad a bit harder in aoe

hazy breach
#

Highest possible aoe sims i could conjure was with guidon as well shrugeg

hexed wave

ok cool that does make me feel better

i do like simplicity

i enjoy watching pika and while i know im not as good as him lol i enjoy learning and he likes puzzle

is this a big sim diff with and without premed ?

Because obviously puzzlebox is better on a 20s fight as it has a longer cd and gives more stats

you guys sim aoe or st? what do u click on to sim when choosing in top gear

AoE is just super weird to sim it's very inaccurate at best imo

Lol u right🤣

dusky yacht
#

I hope they change premed or whatever tho like on bloodlust pulls it felt so bad tonight

abstract cosmos
#

so whats the issue with premed

#

is it bugged

#

?

dusky yacht
#

For me it's 0.9% DPS loss

rain swift
#

!premed

wicked joltBOT
#
  • The first Ancient Arts clone 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)
abstract cosmos
#

damn they need to fix that shit

#

let me see how much of a dmg loss it is for me smile

shrewd lantern

they realistically aren't

its been bugged entire expac

thats mission impossible from blizz

I get this feeling cloudcover was only fixed

due to surge of pvp complaints

i mean if they fix it holy sub would feel so much cleaner for combo procs

shrewd lantern

its just your opener is like sandpaper

TRUE

Ive started liking it somewhat, its only like 4-5 sec of the start right?

#

I've been playing sub the entire xpac and I still dont know this:
Do the supercharged cps act like theyre over 7 cp if at 7 cp when casted?

dusky yacht
#

It's just shitty to me that it feels like RNG somehow

outer orchid
#

Like if at 7 cp with supercharge does it act like 9 cp?

dusky yacht
#

Some pulls I'm taking one more GCD to start dmg

abstract cosmos
#

i also been popping a dance before pull for extra combo points

#

it was v fun

dusky yacht
#

I keep forgetting that optimisation

#

I really need to start doing it

abstract cosmos
#

i mean it kinda makes a diff

#

but not much

outer orchid
hazy breach
#

But yes

#

And if its a coup its effectively a 15 cp finisher

#

Which is why our 2p is so good

this is new info for me

i been playing premed on the first boss of mythic and got a 93 which isnt bad say its bugged no ?

rain swift
#

amazing

outer orchid
abstract cosmos
#

@rain swift what info

rain swift
#

what eleem said

abstract cosmos
#

i know this is a rlly silly question but do we use blades then dance ?

rain swift
#

yeah blades first I'd assume to hit harder with sectech and not need to spend an extra half a sec in dance to click and additional button

dusky yacht
#

.

#

@abstract cosmos

(With guidon)

(And 700 haste)

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).

#

should we always use SD + SECTEC macro or just for that opener

dusky yacht
#

But it's better to have stuff bound seperately

#

!macro

wicked joltBOT
#

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 WoWhead or IV Icy Veins.

dusky yacht
#

You can use the first one there

#

If you want it to look like sectec and have it's cooldown:

#

Can even replace the "2" as name with space " " so it looks exactly like sectec would

#

I have it as 2 because it's bound to 2 for me and this way I can tell if it's the macro

left ledge
#

but yeah guidon is still bis

#

you can make a case for puzzle box in m+

#

or for beloren if you're holding for 2 mins

hexed wave
#

ok cool ill use those bp+coup macro and always use sd+sectec thanks

abstract cosmos
#

rq i wanna change my weapon to haste does this matter for a loss ?

dusky yacht
#

I prefer having it bound seperately mainly to track the cooldown of dance because I don't track it in my ui's CDM

hexed wave
#

yea sometimes i like using it separate too

dusky yacht
#

Get ~700 haste (at least 684+, but 700 is more comfy)

#

Then put the rest into crit/mastery. Leaning more towards crit for raids/ST, mastery for AoE/M+

shrewd lantern
#

equip highest ilvl while retaining haste

#

who tf has multiple myth pieces in every slot to make signficant change

dusky yacht
#

For example, I'm mainly mythic raiding but I do some keys on the side for fun: 907 crit, 687 haste, 750 mastery
I would want a bit more haste and am aiming for it

#

I just prefer leaning towards crit instead of stacking it and being purely crit

#

Plus this way, if I use a mastery flask for m+ I am still having decent mastery and pretty high crit %

#

If I use crit flask I'm pretty high on crit

abstract cosmos
#

this is mine rn

dusky yacht
#

What number is your haste rating

#

The %s are weird

abstract cosmos
#

580 but thats with a ring which is a 1.1% increase

#

compared to my other ring

dusky yacht
#

Ideally you need 104 more haste at the bare minimum, 700 haste rating, but this is WITH oils since you will always use oils, altho if you would get a li'l more you can drop the MH oil for adamantite sharpening stone which is like a nifty li'l thing to do for more weap damage

swift tinsel
dusky yacht
#

I am not using these yet until I get my haste up a li'l more through rolls

swift tinsel
#

If you’re ~540-550 haste then flask will put you at or a little over 700

abstract cosmos
#

true

#

35% crit is good then no ?

#

to leave out crit flask

swift tinsel
#

Ye that’s good

dusky yacht
#

I prefer getting the haste breakpoint with gear so I have control over my flasks situationally but yeah it's personal preference I guess

swift tinsel
#

Having 35-40% crit doesn’t guarantee your rotten strikes or clones will crit

#

Well personal preference and available gear

#

Not exactly a choice if you don’t presently have the gear to hit rating

hexed wave
#

most people using crit flask now? think im using potential

swift tinsel
abstract cosmos
#

i mean if i equip haste apprently its a 1.1 decrease

#

does that matter

fossil forge
wheat edge
swift tinsel
#

Breakpoints make simming a little precarious

hexed wave
#

my bad didnt mean potential lol, magisters im using

swift tinsel
#

Bc the robot is better than most people at hitting globals quickly

lilac stag
#

Robot didn’t have 3 kids

swift tinsel
#

Crit for more st dmg/burst, mastery for more aoe

#

Not like either will crater your dps

abstract cosmos
#

also when using a second dance i noticed without blades u can do it again without putting blades on 19 seconds cd for example what causes that idk if i explained it wrong

hexed wave
#

thanks

dusky yacht
#

I don't really understand fully what you're saying because something doesn't make sense, but I think this answers it

#

It also decreases the cooldown of sectec

abstract cosmos
#

ye my explaing is a bit cooked

dusky yacht
#

But you're also using blades then

#

Which is prolly why you think it has something to do with blades

#

It doesn't, it's guidon, sectec and dance interacting

dusky yacht
#

Until I came here and asked a stupid amount of questions myself

abstract cosmos
#

this is my first ssn as rogue so getting as much info as possible

abstract cosmos
#

its just rlly hard to fit in 700 haste without losing dmg output

dusky yacht
swift tinsel
#

By enabling two sectechs in blades

dusky yacht
#

And more globals iirc

#

Like I remember when I first got the haste breakpoint and I was like "damn what is this"

abstract cosmos
#

this is me with haste pot now 😄

dusky yacht
abstract cosmos
#

might change the gems around then

glass copper
#

sims say its less dps to have 700 haste, because sim only needs ~600 haste to fit max gcd's in sb/sd window. human input delay+latency makes it safer to get a little more. you can self experiment to find your comfort number, or just use 700

dusky yacht
#

This is me with only oils, no flask, but I'm 282 with myth gaze

#

Yeah like the bare minimum was like 684, I have 687 with oils and it's a bit sweaty tbh

#

I would prefer about 700ish

#

My next legs will give me a li'l more

swift tinsel
#

I really wouldn’t overthink secondaries too much beyond just getting 684-700 haste

abstract cosmos
#

this is my gear rn

#

i think its okay

dusky yacht
#

It is

abstract cosmos
#

its just hard getting used to no premed now

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.
