I’m almost ready for 1100 haste Trashpandascheme

dusky yacht
#

It's only because they have no idea what is even going on with our class

#

I don't even really understand the nerf to smoke bomb, the aura buff I get, but why the nerf, what was going wrong in their minds

lilac stag
#

Outlaw turned into Icarus and flew too close to the sun.

dusky yacht
#

Somebody stop these madmen

#

These outlaws are out of control

#

Call the sheriff

lilac stag
#

12.0.5 is year of the daggers.

#

just on Hunter instead of rogue.

#

no clue how they didn’t get adjusted

neon frigate
#

do you guys think that with the next 7% buff sub rogues get more stronger? they nerf the cloud skill to 6 secs

#

!pins

#

how do you check pins haha

rough granite
#

top right corner, looks like a thumb tack

dusky yacht
#

You mean like a pin

neon frigate
#

thank you so much I see it now

lilac stag
#

on mobile, click the header that says #subtlety >

#

Has raidbots been updated, or due to some things being a bit hazy will it be updated on tuesday when full patch drops?

lilac stag
#

raidbots usually gets update with spell data hitting live.

#

pretty sure everything spell overrides

#

Which I don’t think are posted anywhere

neon frigate
#

but its kinda wild that they make cloud cover like that and then reverse it in 1 week no?

tribal blade
molten citrus
#

seemed pretty obvious that it was unintentionally interacting with other talents

tribal blade
#

also outlaw scaled crazy hard with it

#

it was way too much power in 1 talent

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

lol i can only imagine what pvp was like with that talented

#

rogues must have been DOMINATING

molten citrus
tribal blade
#

although crit chance is lower in pvp gear in general

lilac stag
molten citrus
#

this tuning post has fully doomspiraled me

tribal blade
#

is it gutting sub and outlaw?

lilac stag
neon frigate
#

and demon hunters are getting nerfed too :D?

molten citrus
#

and sub didn't even need a nerf

#

even with cloud cover it wasn't good

#

...

tribal blade
#

oh

#

that's tough

#

yeah this is literally every single pvp season with sub

neon frigate
#

but sub isnt getting hit as hard as outlaw. Outlaw can apply 2 stacks, sub still 3 stacks.

tribal blade
#

sub is really really good then blizz hammers it with nerfs over and over again

molten citrus
#

they buffed outlaw 3 times in a row (4 counting cloud cover) in pvp and now they're nerfing it back to below where the 3rd buff put them

#

its genuinely abysmal idfk what they're thinking

short radish
#

rogues never allowed to do damage in pvp kek

tribal blade
#

hence them nerfing the stack amount

#

but you are right, outlaw is getting hit with a nerf and sub is not

#

at least in PVE

molten citrus
#

ye the compensation buffs are not for pvp

#

which is insane to me

tribal blade
#

ok that's really bad

rough granite
#

I'm genuinely convinced that there's no solid rogue dev, so we get bounced around to several people trying their best/implementing ideas they like before it's hot potato'd and quickly rebalanced to the new person's liking.

tribal blade
#

yeah

hazy breach
rough granite
#

That seems like a poor choice in the long play of things.

tribal blade
#

blizz has gone on a train of trying to increase profits since like legion

#

which naturally meant cutting costs of things like customer service

neon frigate
#

I still cannot get the same damage as my wifes beast mastery hunter and that rotation is so easy

tribal blade
#

and GMs

#

and devs i imagine

tribal blade
#

that's a tough one

#

maybe press buttons harder

neon frigate
tribal blade
#

i dunno what BM does in keys

neon frigate
#

a lot 😄

tribal blade
#

but it's not tuned well right now it seems

neon frigate
#

insane AOE dmg

tribal blade
#

it doesn't look like it

obsidian crag
tribal blade
#

in fact it appears BM and sub is doing very similar overall in keys

#

from very limited data i'm looking at

lilac stag
drifting ether
obsidian crag
#

this was a BM hunter

#

also, do not die during the dg, helps

neon frigate
#

but in big packs i rarely get above 400k dps doing a lot of shuriken storm and BP and sec tec when I can when SD is up

#

400k is in burst

#

my wife does 500 + in AOE groups :S

small sleet
#

in big packs i regularly reach 800k+

tribal blade
#

i can do 500k burst

small sleet
#

so it might be a rotation/priority thing

tribal blade
#

sub is definitely capable of those numbers

neon frigate
#

i really hope im doing something wrong

obsidian crag
#

i burst to 650-700 most of the times on first pack

neon frigate
#

wth

#

this is not good for the marriage ofcourse

torpid echo
#

Yeah same. I did a pit 10 yesterday and I almost got to 1M first pack

#

I wish my wife played wow and kicked my butt tbh x)

somber sun
small sleet
#

yeah pot + lust is what im talking about there

#

like first pull pit and such

tribal blade
#

i never look at meters during a pull so i have no idea what my burst is peaking at

#

but yeah it's strong right now

limber folio
#

will this overcap, or will i just lose the vault currency if i buy the voidcore..?

obsidian crag
#

pot, lust, flasks, everything, u cant really expect much with un-enchanted gear and not using consumables

tribal blade
somber sun
#

just that 800k seems crazy

#

I only hit 400k ish

small sleet
#

you wont end the pull at 800k

tribal blade
#

yeah they're talking about peak

torpid echo
#

Not to mention that pot is massive this expansion.

small sleet
#

unless its a low key and it dies insanely fast

tribal blade
#

i was talking about what i end a pull at

somber sun
tribal blade
#

i did a 10 nexus helping guidies today and ended the first pull around 500k

#

and then the healer who's key we pugged into said "holy shit"

#

and then continued to keep saying "holy shit" as i DESTROYED taht key

dusky yacht
#

yo hold up I need a better pc so I can start logging my keys

tribal blade
#

literally blew 1 boss up in like 60 seconds or something

limber folio
neon frigate
#

mastery flask and then light potion?

limber folio
#

you just /combatlog and then upload the file

tribal blade
limber folio
#

theres no reason to livelog

tribal blade
#

not using pots is a massive dps loss right now

torpid echo
somber sun
tribal blade
#

it's 500-600 main stat

somber sun
#

just better internet

tribal blade
#

which is like 1/3rd of your base agi or something

limber folio
#

why better internet

#

the upload just takes a wee bit longer

tribal blade
#

just buy the rank 1 pots, they're cheap and give 500 agi

#

rank 2 if you can swing the gold for 600 agi

dusky yacht
neon frigate
#

hmm i will try with pot, but to be honest the hunter wasnt using pots too ^^

somber sun
#

also use tier two flasks and pots for raids

neon frigate
#

which enchants do I miss?

somber sun
#

idk if its just me, are the legs enchanted ?

#

also those are not that good on sub

lilac stag
tribal blade
somber sun
#

and last try to get gaze

neon frigate
#

gaze?

somber sun
#

chim trinket

neon frigate
#

ah yea

lilac stag
# tribal blade WOOOO

I wish you were killing paladins before us on Tuesday. Need a report on how sub went.

fossil forge
#

Guys alleria ded today any prayers

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

psure we’re extending so I may just do a pull or two as sub

tribal blade
#

because sub is now doing similar numbers to sin from weeks back kinda

#

plus sub is much tankier than sin

fossil forge
tribal blade
#

and i can play sub in my sleep

#

so i might just play sub and say fuck it

lilac stag
tribal blade
#

oh also sub is up +2.5% this week

#

so even more dmg

fossil forge
#

thats why i need to enjoy it this raid

#

real quick

lilac stag
#

Let me find the link. One sec

fossil forge
tribal blade
#

also not needing to cast puzzle on paladins

#

will be A+

tribal blade
#

casting puzzle and praying i don't get hit by shit

fossil forge
#

Cast puzzle b into cast 2sec prayer irl

tribal blade
#

paladins not a dps check at all, just a live check

dusky yacht
#

Guys wtf is dis

#

Do I need this to log

lilac stag
fossil forge
#

Yea the classic

lilac stag
#

I’m over the RTB experiment

#

pressing a buff ability should not trigger manic depression

tribal blade
#

YUP

#

literally my reaction when outlaw dropped in legion

lilac stag
#

here’s a 1 or 2 roll, enjoy your debuff.

tribal blade
#

at least 2 is playable

#

1 is unplayable

fossil forge
#

I love gambling

tribal blade
#

RtB is the whole reason i can't get behind outlaw

#

which is coincidentally why so many people love it

lilac stag
#

I input lagged a jackpot KiR by .5 seconds too late since it still wasn’t up. KiR went off. Didn’t get the extend. Rolled to get buffs. Single. Hahaha

tribal blade
#

so it's just not for me

fossil forge
#

technically speaking u never 1 buff If you play correctly

#

(I managed to have a 5min 1buff uptime on my first run)

tribal blade
#

i can't remember from my testing but i think it can happen

lilac stag
#

there can be some weird timing disconnects in keys, especially with a wipe

#

not often but man when it happens. fml

neon frigate
#

little question: i have 811 crit, 502 haste, and 657 mastery (without pots). Would it be good to ditch some crit and go for haste?

lilac stag
#

The hallway in PIT I had jackpot + kir to pull aggro off the slightly undergeard brm. Went splat.

#

never saw more than a 2 after that until last 10 seconds of boss

lilac stag
#

you’ll be fine with flask + oils

neon frigate
#

what does haste do? you notice difference between 500 haste and 700 haste?

tribal blade
#

yes big difference

lilac stag
#

!guidon

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.

lilac stag
#

!haste

wicked joltBOT
#

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.

neon frigate
#

of i will use haste flask, and some1 said oil? what oil?

tribal blade
neon frigate
#

thank you so much

tribal blade
#

not using consumables is quite a big dps loss

#

ofc!

neon frigate
#

gonna try now

tribal blade
#

if you're strapped for gold just buy rank 1

azure thicket
#

or just roll a 5 buff depending on the season

tribal blade
#

i found HO way more fun to play than KIR

#

probably because it played less into RTB lol

azure thicket
#

had this one ho mechagon where i legit rolled 2 buffs until the last minutes fwiw and then it was just 5 buff 5 buff 5 buff

#

i think lights potential adds 10k dps to a dslice sim forgot to add it when i was checking outlaw gear stuff

#

really likes solarflare prism over ranger trinket on hero for some reason

modern matrix
#

hey, i havent seen in the pins, with next patch coming, the stats are now around 700 haste still then crit right ?

tribal blade
#

well not pain for me

#

i'm over gold cap heehee

fossil forge
#

im kinda broke

#

rn

#

we start mythic boosts soon so thank god

tribal blade
#

damn that blows

azure thicket
#

i figure purchasing power is gonna go up after the turbo boost fully rolls out

fossil forge
#

only reason im broke is because we have 3 raids a week

#

and i recraft like

#

9 times a week

#

because my other rogue has shit items

#

so i played law on my main

azure thicket
#

cause yeah m+ boosts are gonna go large ppl wanting 3.4k and whatnot

tribal blade
#

jesus

azure thicket
#

yeah double jesus

fossil forge
#

soon gaze on other rogue.

tribal blade
#

oh i could easily sell 4k to people

#

i have 16 resil

#

wait not 4k

#

3.4k

#

numbers

azure thicket
#

just call zac

tribal blade
#

LOL nah

azure thicket
#

nah just kidding but yeah

fossil forge
#

m+ boosts so pisseasy rn

tribal blade
#

he will try to razzle dazzle me with his smelly french pirate words

azure thicket
#

dude's hiding in a baguette fr

tribal blade
#

with a stick of butter

fossil forge
#

BAGUETTES MENTIONED?

tribal blade
#

i've been to france once for my sister's wedding

fossil forge
tribal blade
#

it's actually crazy how decadent they eat

#

like super calorie dense food

azure thicket
#

enhance

tribal blade
#

but they eat so little of it

#

so it balances itself out

fossil forge
tribal blade
#

it's fascinating

azure thicket
#

i've had brazillian food twice which more than i've had french food

dusky yacht
tribal blade
#

i've never seen better food discipline than with the french

dusky yacht
azure thicket
#

you guys have cities to walk around

tribal blade
#

i'm half chinese

azure thicket
#

and bike paths

tribal blade
#

so it's in my genes to be naturally lean

dusky yacht
#

And to disappoint your parents

tribal blade
#

AND disappoint my chinese mom

azure thicket
#

house slippers

tribal blade
#

asian parents are scary

dusky yacht
#

They're like "asian schools are doing really well" and I'm like no shit I wonder why scared of asian moms as somebody trained in self defense

azure thicket
#

yeah my asian mom is pretty americanized

#

no house slippers except me and hamburger

#

peepohappy 🍔

tribal blade
tribal blade
azure thicket
#

figure in 2 hours ppl will be up doing keys again idk what to do

thin sinew
#

well i'm ready for going assassination on paladins 💀

lilac stag
dusky yacht
thin sinew
azure thicket
#

buddy i got sent to spensive schools but also valid cause our area's public schools had metal detectors and cops in vests out front at 2:30 every day xD

dusky yacht
lilac stag
tribal blade
#

unless people are gray parsing 🙂

brisk onyx
#

It is true, because in reality, whether you use sin or sub is insignificant (in this combat)

thin sinew
dusky yacht
tribal blade
#

with how much dmg we're doing now

#

and sub is gaining more dmg on reset

#

it doesn't matter what you play on paladins anymore

dusky yacht
#

We are equal in shit

thin sinew
dusky yacht
#

Other classes: sneezes for 160k dps on vanguards

azure thicket
#

we have 2 sub rogues in our raid it's the weirdest thing

tribal blade
#

so sub is now closing in on doing the top end of what sin was doing weeks ago

azure thicket
#

hopefully i have an outlaw set for vanguard we gotta do dragons next reset

tribal blade
#

obv sin is still much better

#

but i don't think it really matters anymore

thin sinew
#

Well no, but it's nice to have the option depending on how things go

tribal blade
#

sub also has the benefit of being much tankier than sin

lilac stag
thin sinew
#

I usually find i do pretty well on paladins but that's heroic so really not a fair comparison

lilac stag
#

you're not there to do dmg on the fight

tribal blade
#

playing sin on paladins kinda kills my mental ngl

brisk onyx
#

If you happen to have a suitable gear, then you can use sin; if not, it's okay, because you'll be at the bottom anyway, and using sin won't change that fact kekw

tribal blade
#

because bricking my energy with CT feels horrible

lilac stag
#

if you enjoy assa, by all means play it. it is our best cleave spec. sub is servicable enough for progging. that fight is all on your healers and tanks

tribal blade
#

the funny thing is TWW sub would be absolutely blasting paladins

#

so hard

brisk onyx
lilac stag
tribal blade
#

being almost double the energy cost of FoK is insane

tribal blade
#

i would top that fight all the time

lilac stag
#

that last blade timing was soooo bad

tribal blade
#

i honestly don't remember but yeah

lilac stag
#

you either clipped it with intermission or waited to after for basically no dmg

tribal blade
#

TWW outlaw would also be blasting paladins

azure thicket
#

do they go into the last intermission before enrage right around when it goes up

lilac stag
#

fury was fun on demonhunters

#

that's where I got class swapped lol

azure thicket
#

our one kill we dropped one of em as they phased and then just kinda damaged the other two

tribal blade
#

i guess we're just living with sloppy council fights now

#

i realized

#

1 in every raid

lilac stag
#

we get monks next

tribal blade
#

which is a ton of mechanics vomit on the ground

#

LOL true

azure thicket
#

i wouldn't mind timewalking df raids tbh

#

probs monks yeah lol

fossil forge
#

last szn council was goated

lilac stag
#

@tribal blade recrafted for neck drop. we cooking

tribal blade
#

i don't really need to change any gear i don't think

#

just use mast flask and i'm good

#

might drop some crit to reduce variance

lilac stag
#

i had to drop haste with neck

tribal blade
#

but also doesn't really matter

stoic anchor
#

When are the 7% buffs comming in , wednesday, right?

tribal blade
#

i have alleria neck and nexus ring set so i'm very good on haste

stoic anchor
#

And do we change back to no scrupules and mastery?

tribal blade
lilac stag
#

right i had the heroic rings, and didnt have neck so neck put we way over

stoic anchor
#

Yes

fossil forge
#

@tribal blade alleria neck+ nexus rings + alleria pants ?

#

cook

tribal blade
#

because of a bad vault

stoic anchor
fossil forge
#

anlaki but u can get them haste mastery

#

and its 100haste i think

real panther
#

how much crit do we want for next patch?

tribal blade
#

i'm so good on haste i'm chilling

#

it's really easy for me to add more haste with all the gear i have

#

i could hit 1100 for DS right now

stoic anchor
#

there's a saying in my country which means: get undressed i'm going to f u , get dressed i'm not going to f u anymore. That's how blizz treats sub xd

#

Updates so bad i'm 99% sure they got no idea what they want to do with the spec. Also deathstalker sits like that meme on the bottom of the ocean

fossil forge
#

i have this vision

#

alleria neck+ lura ring+the pants would go crazy

real panther
hazy breach
tribal blade
#

since strike isn't gonna be doing ridiculous crit dmg anymore

lilac stag

back to focusing on finishers

#

broke 110 with neck PepeFull

so does than change our funnel rotation

#

The famous funnel

#

How good is the nexus rings for us in general?

void ocean
#

well the one i got is about to become very good

#

i got the haste mastery one after 3 rolls and was sad

hazy breach
void ocean
#

then tunning happened

plush roost
#

Oh u mean gear for tokens

lilac stag
#

@hazy breach are the spell overrides for raidbots posted anyplace, or can you share?

plush roost
#

Nexus ring gud ye

void ocean
#

i got 698 haste now with cheaper oils, i aint paying 10x the price for extra 3 crit n haste

rustic mortar
#

!stats

wicked joltBOT
#

The following is a general recommendation, but you will always get more accurate results through simming your gear through Top Gear.
Single Target / Mythic+: Critical Strike > Haste(roughly 700) >= Mastery > Versatility
Mythic+: Mastery >Haste(roughly 700) >= Critical Strike > Versatility

rustic mortar
#

with 1006 crit 705 haste 482 mastery i should just go for mastery flask i guess ?

limber folio
#

probably, but you can also sim flasks now

tight fjord
#

I have no idea how this even works

#

If you purposely over cap is it like guaranteeing double finisher

rustic mortar
tight fjord
#

I gotta read it again

tribal blade
#

so storm>all those conditions are true>strike>BP>BP

#

but it's kinda super sweaty prio stuff, not really useful for anyone not doing high keys

dusky yacht
#

Just push buttons

tribal blade
#

true just push buttons

#

i dunno if any of the high IO sub rogues even do this

#

charrend definitely did

tight fjord
#

Yea lmao, I mean I have some nasty parses on stuff here and there but I have no idea how to manipulate that part

#

So I have to track that buff too

dusky yacht
#

I mean I only do AA procs on supercharge even while bping but I'm not sure I know wtf you guys are on about

tight fjord
#

It's just how to sneak a little more prio without big sacrifice

#

Manipulating the apex

fervent socket
#

have a question about SIM numbers Vs actual DPS, what impact on the numbers I would see on a training dummy should I expect to see with / without buffs and food?

swift tinsel
#

you can do a target dummy sim

#

or just turn off buffs

azure thicket
#

it's weird with the changes to the rotation guidon causes

tribal blade
vale pine
azure thicket
#

you end up without enough shadow technique points stored up to hit the optimization most of the time

#

in blades at least

vale pine
dusky yacht
vale pine
#

nicu

#

already well geared for reset

dusky yacht
fervent socket
#

Ah I did not know that, running a basic one now. Since the default sim was saying I should be hitting 90Kdps approx but I can barely achieve 60k on the dummy (without food etc)

vale pine
#

you will perform even worse if you don't use consumables

#

especially combat potions have a high impact

dusky yacht
#

I'm 282 and my sims are way lower on ST

#

Unbuffed I mean

#

Except with oils but I include those in my ST sims

fervent socket
#

yeah thats a conclusion I was making, like either A) I am sucking hard during rotation practice or B) Ive messed up the SIM

#

spoilers... after running the sim correctly Im getting 60.7K dps

azure thicket
#

depending on the length of the fight you'll see variance in that number

fervent socket
#

I'm just relieved that I'm not to far off, was going mental thinking i couldn't play the class

dusky yacht
#

My God 14 keys are so washed, first tank is so careful we are taking 5 min every pack to kill random non-prio or caster mobs, next tank doesn't know where to go and the healer thinks we should wait for him to eat after every pack LMAO

#

(Eat irl, not in game btw)

tight fjord
#

in m+ what% magic dmg are we

#

like 65% magic?

I should've stayed shit at the game and not learned anything, maybe I would've been happy and eating in keys too

maybe this is them learning

yep

but go off in a discord. kekdog

ive been asked to soak on beloran (the stacked birds dive), im being told i can live with just feint, it seems all logs are running cheat death, is it correct i can live with just feint ? seems crazy when other people need all sorts of externals

there is a disconnect here

I didn't say 3k was big, but I knew what to do when I was 3k so idk man

lilac stag
#

you’re a dps. Just don’t stand in shit.

And maybe don't eat in a key while "learning"

see how the going off makes me feel better?

I'm happy it did

# shrewd lantern yeah only 2 people isnt enough for just feint

yeah thats what i was thinking too, thanks ill have a look at some logs and a talk to RL 😄

  1. Roloff Cloak, 2x Externals, Aug Zephyr
  2. Mage Block, Roloff Feint, 1x External, 2x Hunter sac, aug Zephyr
    p2:
  3. mage Block, Roloff Feint, 2x Externals, aug Zephyr
  4. Roloff Feint, 2x Aug Cheat, aug Zephyr, 1x External, 2x Hunter sac

this is the plan, im gonna look at some logs and see if they have simulair setup

lilac stag

they’re learning and you’re learning. Likely neither will actually learn anything from any of this. kekdog

our purple guy got the veteran of the dawn achievement shortly after our first 19

Yeah u could say that

warm marlin
#

and our healer also has shaman at 275 waiting to swap if we end up needing lust omegalul

woeful dome
#

What do we reckon lads, are we taking back over from outlaw again?

hexed wave
#

yea im trying to set upmy talents for reset, wont be on till then

plush roost
#

Meh

#

Outlaw will be gud in raid still its just 6% on a class that can highroll 140k st

woeful dome
#

Putrid tuning tbh i can’t understand why 3 specs of a pure dps class were in the bottom half til last patch, which they’re reverting

night sluice
#

how much buff is the tuning in m+?

#

it only says one number so I assumed that's ST

plush roost
#

Its similar in aoe

#

2.5-4% probably

#

Depending on pulls/key

#

Being able to play even more mastery is only a net gain for aoe

vale pine
#

the buffs are roughly 2.5-3%

#

if you switch to deathstalker on single target can add another 2% on top

#

burst damage is lower, as we switch off cloud cover

#

(tho we do more damage overall, means this effect is diminished)

hexed wave
#

just stick to trickster guys

abstract cosmos
#

yup

vale pine
#

diffrence is small enough for you to not care

#

so ye

last marten
#

can we shadowstep cast down from last boss sky reach ?

swift tinsel
#

the duality of subtlety, we'll play funny optimizations for 0.5% gain but skip a hero tree thats 2% ahead

#

(bc said hero tree sucks)

vale pine
#

you can vanish it

#

step does not work

last marten
#

oohh

#

does meld work aswell ?

vale pine
#

tho we will see

#

towards the "optimization" thing

#

remember that people lose their mind over 0.5% higher dps for a trinket

#

meanwhile everyone will tell you how race does not matter

#

me playing undead is a 1.5% or higher dps loss

swift tinsel
#

lmao yep 100%

vale pine
#

which is more than most optimizations or trinkets offer

#

its a weird dynamic

warm marlin
dense coyote
#

what are diminishing returns when it comes to stats ? like can one have TOO much of a stat ?

vale pine
#

i mean, bloodmallet even normalizes the race chart so every race looks the same

#

streamers will always tell you it does not matter

#

outside of maybe high m+, where racials like dwarf can be valuable

vale pine
#

but the simulations take these into account

dusky yacht
#

I'm trying to figure out logging but this is weird, does it take time for the upload to get accurately parsed or something? It's telling me 131k dps in one and 139 in the other but in game DPS meters said 141k lmao

pastel rampart
#

insane human rogue value.... 2% more haste gained...

vale pine
#

in game damage meters are not super accurate

vale pine
#

often show wrong values

dense coyote
dusky yacht
dense coyote
#

this number

dusky yacht
vale pine
dusky yacht
pastel rampart
#

ive seen some discussion about races w crit dmg bonus getting higher value from the crit enchants because they stack in a weird way, are they already reflected in sims? havent really kept up

hazy breach
dense coyote
#

my stat ratings are really low then ?

#

it seems like it owuld be really hard to hit those

#

or get above those

pastel rampart
#

if ur really curious there are addons like truestatvalues that show it but you need to give it 0 thought and afk follow sim so theres not much point

vale pine
#

stat amount goes up over time

shrewd lantern
#

or you can just run the sim

#

and let it do the thinking

vale pine
#

so stat dr becomes more relevant for later tiers of a xpac

dense coyote
#

yeah i suppose so

vale pine
#

always was like this

#

but as eleem mentioned, i wouldn't concern myself over it

pastel rampart
#

^

vale pine
#

the simualtions include the dr, so gear evaluation is correct either way

shrewd lantern
#

imo dwarf is the safest option

#

for a race that is always good

vale pine
#

and balance tuning, or how much damage each spec does

#

is usually decided by damage tuning, so buffs and nerfs

#

rather than pure stats

#

stats play a overall very small part in your output

dusky yacht
#

Same log, different number

#

da heckers

vale pine
dusky yacht
#

I must be doing something wrong

#

Does method raid tool auto log actually work properly?

warm marlin
#

key logs are sometimes a little bit off on rankings page vs. the log itself

#

im honestly not even sure why

vale pine
#

BUT

sick karma
#

premeditation stil bug?

warm marlin
#

but it is a consistent thing

vale pine
#

make sure you have advanced logging enabled in the networking settings

dry surge
#

I'm assuming trick haste BP stays the same

warm marlin
#

anyone happen to know if you can wear a second crafted ring

#

i assume not

#

have to mix loa worship/masterwork sindorei if you want 2x crafted?

dry surge
#

Is it unique or unique (2)

Just 1 then I think

Hello !! quick question, I keep running into the situation at end of SB ; my ST is up but i'm not in SD. My next SD is coming 1s too late to be in my SB window. So my question is, should I send ST during SB or keep it and use it on max CP with SD ?

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.

tight fjord
#

i mean

#

the rank 4 guy did the same thing, pumping evisc into this boss

and rank 5

and rank 6

lol back to “funnel” on the first AA boss. love it.

Oh ok I'm on a road trip so time is relative

#

Do we need a meme for this?

tight fjord
#

I just didn't get the satisfaction from chat so I had to check logs

lilac stag
#

Meanwhile the rogue pressing BP in the 20 finished the 20 a minute faster than the 18 pressing evic

tight fjord
#

Ok ok

sullen hare
#

For good measure I'll just repeat what I said before

#

Always remember that if the adds have to die, it's not padding

lilac stag
#

Did 56k more dps overall.

tight fjord
#

His devourer has the real funnel carrying there

#

That Chinese guy or whatever did less than the monk tank to the boss

lilac stag
#

he could have used strike more over Storm

warm marlin
#

if your tank isnt going to die its literally just correct to do funnel rotation on that boss

#

when u play law in that key u cancel bladeflurry if you have a funnel guy

lilac stag
#

just because someone plays a key a certain way doesn’t mean it’s correct. Slam strike. Hit BP if you need the adds dead. Hit evis if the adds are obliterated.

#

just realize we ain’t funneling shit.

#

We can prio some dmg

fast dome
#

just do keys as assa. be a man.

tight fjord
#

I guess it only really matters if it's stressing out the tank or not, for those adds to die slower, and that's all

lilac stag
vale pine
lilac stag
#

pressing storm out of dance to funnel evic is such minimal shit with how poor our out of dmg is (which is a good thing)

and tell your ret to fuck off and press their utility more in a key

Hey people. I did (tried) a 17 today and it felt like packs are living too long to have nice uptime on my cooldowns. is it time to go sin at that level, or group damage was just too low?

for some reason we did the bird first, today we start crown. any tips from my fellow rogues, who have progged it?

tight fjord
warm marlin
#

if you can do this well as a group you will not lose much uptime at all

dreamy wedge
warm marlin
#

also if you eat the little add swirls in p1 you steal the damage taken increase from the big add which is bad

mighty citrus
tight fjord
warm marlin
#
  1. bait obelisks (stand where you want to aim them, especially in p2)
  2. dont get hit by little add swirls in p1
  3. cloak doesnt work on the obelisk dot, can still press it to stop rot damage but you probably want to crimson vial/consider healthstone etc. when you get it
  4. careful with step on the jumps in p3 because if you click it on boss/players you can just fall into the void
mighty citrus

yeah iam 100% sure i will die to step later in the fight 😄

hollow elk
#

Yop might be a stupid question but this never happened to me before
If we have 2 rogues should one of them use the "less damage" non-lethal and the other rogue use the "cast speed slow" non-lethal poison?
Or do we not care, or do they stack effect?

dreamy wedge
#

They do not stack. Mind numbing poison doesn't work on bosses.

hollow elk
#

Thanks

pseudo fiber
#

guys, do we recon law > sub in highkeys still after nerfs pop?

tight fjord
#

On chimareus mythic, prioritize having the numbing poison effect via atleast one warlock or rogue on each side, otherwise use atrophic

hazy breach
vale osprey
hazy breach
#

Also the attack speed slow is kinda whatever as most tanks arent afraid of the melee hits, its some tank buster that kills them

raw frost
#

btw

#

why do we switch the talent for 10 % crit damage in dance for 25 % attack speed , with 12 % crit chance our crit is high so isn't the crit damage better XD

#

but for overall have no idea

#

if we hgave like 45 % crit chance on finsihers crit damage is heavy xd

hazy breach
#

Theyre about the same

vale osprey
#

And we like more stacks of em

hazy breach
#

But warning signs = more finishers

#

PE = more damage on everything, including shadowstrike

stable dock
#

at how many mobs in sub rogue do you do single target rotation and when do you do multi? like is it 2 mobs you do single target rotation / build with back stab or what?

left ledge
#

with potent powder you black powder at 2+

#

you strike up to 3 targets in dance, storm at 4+ in dance, stab at 1 outside, storm at 2+ outside

stable dock
#

Do you still build with shuriken storm or what ever it's called or build with backstab form stealth?

left ledge
#

you dont ever want to backstab from stealth

stable dock
#

Sorry what's the one called that's not backstab when you go stealth lol sorry

left ledge
#

shadowstrike

stable dock
#

I mean do you build points with shadowstrike in 2 mobs but use black powder as spender or always build with shuriken storm on more than 1 mob?

left ledge
#

it is more detailed in here

stable dock
#

Ah okay thank you!

#

Hope you have a good day!

Hey guys, I’ve been seeing that in the new patch it’s going to perform better to use Deathstalker instead of Trickster. If that’s the case, should I change my gear/stats? I was just about to enchant and gem everything 🙁

^ you can look at simulations, the single target part of the sheet is updated with overwrites for the change

oh huh

it does by a bit

#

if these are 100% correct, we can't tell before the patch is live

warped stirrup
#

right

runic gulch
#

The stats don’t seem to vary much between the two, right?

vale pine
#

between deathstalker and trickster?

#

they do quite a bit

#

one goes for 700 haste

the other for 1100

i see it right we got a new talent for a week with that cloud and then after a week it get so hard nerfed that we dont skill it anymotre?

dreamy wedge
craggy fractal
# vernal drum

are your neck/pants myth ? If not i'd say roll on pit for pants /dagger/neck and possibly ring if we still want that after the nerfs

dreamy wedge
#

We might want to cut a bit on crit (depends on your gear) so IDK if pit is such a clear go-to

indigo wraith
#

With the 7% buff minus the talent back to normal what are the approximate upgrade ?

#

Only 2.5 , rip

craggy fractal
dreamy wedge
#

I got all the good stuff from pit on my rolls and with coming tunnig I struggle to cut crit for mastery now.

warped stirrup
#

so i might be missing something here.
if shadowstrike tends to generate a lot of combo points and does a truck load of damage compared to shuriken storm, if we can hit max CP regardless why would be still shuriken storm during shadow dance on aoe?

#

is it just the find weakness?

@plush roost when you are min maxing gem/enchantes and raid + push keys, do you go with dslice . patch work or something custom?

Ill probably do patchwerk 10 targets if i end up playing sub lowkey

And then a patchwerk 1 4 min

And then dslice

Maybe Im misreading.

AGI pot and yeah using after Guidon

plush roost

still gazelle

Usually it's like trinket count to one pot and then macro

If its agi pot doesnt matter

Secondary would give haste is why i was asking

not 5

When does the leveling process of rogue get better

cuz im currently 20 and this energy consumption is insane

lilac stag

When you buy an 80 boost

leveling on rogue is sadly not fun

it gets better once you get higher levels, but rogue solo content is never outstanding in terms of quality

# brisk wind When does the leveling process of rogue get better

Ok let me teach you young one. Step 1) Make an Earthen, you start at level 10. Use Delver's mana gate or the like to leave Earthen Starting Zone. Get the addon 'Dystinct Earthen Skyriding', fly around to level to 90 in 5 hours. Then race change if you like

#

Zero combat, quests, or dungeons needed to 10-90 (and you START at 10)

its like an hour of flying around following the path the addon says to

is there a way to check which quests youve done up to for the achievement?

Is it true to say you never hit secret technique out of stealth?

basically yes

#

use it during shadowdance only iirc

we can hit secret technique on shadowdance without bonus cp ?

like on the end of shadowdance or we should avoid

lilac stag

Only time you do that is during blades without lust

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.
