That is how it feels. I parsed super high on vorasius mythic by high rolling af and ever since, no high rolls or I have to do something that isn't DPS optimal and then somehow I feel like I'm doing "less"; because I'm looking at funny number on a website.

fast dome
#

i like cloud cover, still run in M+. Not raid tho.

vale pine
#

It's confusing ^^

warm marlin
#

ye i linked the wrong one too

#

xd

#

idk why wikipedia has it like that

vale pine
#

definitions basically say to deny historical events or data

warm marlin
#

luvchild is right that its basically just gaslighting

vale pine
#

which also feels very weird in the context

#

its just a very negative loaded terms from whatever i see in dictionaries

warm marlin
#

Guy was referring to people saying "it worked like x in the past, everything was better with the old talent system etc." when it just didnt work like that

#

suggestions that illusion of choice was any different with the old rows

lucid jackal
#

Yeh

vale pine
#

the illusion of choice is the same as before

void ocean
#

Cause there is progression and there r reclears, if u dont help the team win during progression, but focus on parse u r an idiot and gonna be benched prolly by any serious RL. But if its like god knows which reclear and u ignore mechanics a bit its probably not the worst thing

pastel geyser
#

remember the old talent system where you didnt actually have any choices and dead talents didnt get looked at for years

vale pine
#

the problem before was just that talents ended up neglected

#

you rarely had 3 choices

#

when all you had was these 3 choices per tier

lucid jackal
#

I also just really dislike the framing of illusion of choice

warm marlin
#

The new talents system has a lot more choice and perceived variety, idc if there is stuff like goremaw that will never be picked, maybe dark brew randomly synergizes super well with a talent set or storm becomes giga so we want tornado or gloomblade or something

warm marlin
#

you can say you'll play the same talent build 99% of the time anyway but idk

dusky yacht
#

But if it's like that then kind of what is the point of even having them anymore

warm marlin
#

at least there's things to think about that look cool in the tree

lucid jackal
#

I think the only game, genuinely that does a talent tree perfectly is poe, and that game is loaded with other issues

pastel geyser
#

the new talent system has more levers and knobs blizzard can tune than the old one

vale pine
#

i mean

warm marlin
#

I would love a poe talent tree in wow

#

but it would also cause tuning to explode permanently

lucid jackal
vale pine
#

i think the only diffrence is

#

the enw system has the oppotunity of offering more choice

lucid jackal
#

"you just take the suppress and live nodes illusion of choice"

vale pine
#

if thats the case, as we see here

#

depends on who you ask

tight fjord
#

It’ll probably be the next tier set that chooses new talents for us

dusky yacht
#

I mean the only thing talent trees and class tuning has led to for me so far is a bunch of recrafting and short-term playstyle adaptation which resulted in basically nothing

void ocean
#

There were dead choices when u had 3 per lvl, but u could always get all the best ones. We cant do the same now cause they r sometimes hidden behind a few bad ones so overall it doesnt pay off

warm marlin
#

yeah but if you could take the good ones you'd just be aura tuned to the same place anyway

lucid jackal
#

This is like the perfect example lmao

dusky yacht
#

Well yeah but it's also the perfect example of what's the point

lucid jackal
#

..?

chrome palm
#

whoops not intended, removed instantly

vale pine
#

think its not that good of an example

lucid jackal
#

The point is that new things open synergy spaces that change our talents?

vale pine
#

because if you reworked a old talent

#

and made it good

#

the old system also would be

dusky yacht
#

We switched back the moment it became irrelevant again and it led only to recrafts and changing playstyle for .. 2 weeks? I forgot

vale pine
#

"Oh look, people now play a completely diffrent setup suddenly"

warm marlin
#

well rn you could still play cloud cover on beloren for example maybe, idk what the sims show

#

thats an interesting choice point

vale pine
#

the end result is the same

lucid jackal
#

That's because they nerfed the talent

vale pine
#

reguardless of talent system

dusky yacht
#

To me it just felt like blizzard was using "class tuning" to cause recrafts and get more money lol

lucid jackal
#

?

#

You might be schizophrenic

chrome palm
#

damn they got me again

vale pine
#

think thats interpreting too much into them just simply updating a talent

dusky yacht
#

"felt like"

vale pine
#

and trying to make it good

tight fjord
#

I mean I’ll bet if you wanna build your character to do the maximum egg phase damage for a one phase group on heroic, it’s still cloud cover with crit rings and necks

vale pine
#

and overshooting

#

which is like

#

what happens i feel very frequently

dusky yacht
#

Psychosis is not anything like that, you are convinced of a certain delusion and won't accept counterargumentation.

#

And I'd prefer it if you didn't change the discussion to questioning my mental state, that's not only unfair but also insulting.

lucid jackal
#

You honestly think they buffed cloud cover so rogues would have to recraft gear and get gold?

dusky yacht
#

The thought crossed my mind is not equal to psychosis.

lucid jackal
#

You can keep saying feel but that doesn't change the question I'm asking

vale pine
#

most did not re-craft

tight fjord
#

It’s not an illusion if you’re building a spec for 30 seconds of damage, like I said

dusky yacht
#

Sounds like you lack education on an insult you just used.

lucid jackal
#

LOLOL

#

That's it yeah

lilac stag
#

You could recraft your equipment for the cost of 5 WQ

#

They don’t give a shit about that.

lucid jackal
#

If you don't recraft your gear for 20 dps your tier might be over

dusky yacht
#

30k tips on my server, every crafter.

warm marlin
#

damn ur getting scammed

tight fjord
#

Best 30 seconds burst is completely different from raid spec or m+ spec, correct?

dusky yacht
#

It's server economy. They all say the same thing.

spice matrix
#

You guys tip?

lilac stag
lucid jackal
#

Tip to guild 250 gold each time garf_sit

void ocean
warm marlin
#

if you a broke boy just say

#

so

dusky yacht
#

Why would my guildies craft it for me when they can earn 30k comissions lmao

lucid jackal
#

Bro I had to buy d4 cosmetics

#

I am broke

dusky yacht
#

I don't even blame them

lucid jackal
#

And the sales rn are sketchy as fuck

lilac stag
spice matrix
#

D4 rogue blood fang goes hard

lucid jackal
#

Did u see some guild got their bank wiped for sales this week

#

LOLOLO

void ocean
#

I have guild crafters for everything so like 500g tip

warm marlin
#

my friends tip me 1 silver for recrafting

#

it is truly a curse

#

im not even given the respect of a single gold

lilac stag
#

I tip 420g 69s with a note of Nice!

void ocean
#

Ppl betrayed Jesus for 30 silver, dafuq u want more for a recraft

tight fjord
#

I tip 10k for everything, if I need a wow token for gold that’s just part of the deal. What’s that a 2$tip for their concentration? Don’t be cheap

somber sun
#

I tip 50k personally

#

hard time to log in and press a button to craft and send it back to me

#

they must be rewarded

void ocean
#

U guys robbed a bank or smth

warm marlin
#

if it was that easy then do it yourself blud

#

🙂

lilac stag
#

Initial crafts I did 5k then just did 1k for a recraft.

somber sun
#

I receive 99% cut

keen dome
somber sun
#

I just dont have time

keen dome
#

or, if they want to inflict harm on me, they tip me 67 gold.

chrome palm
#

as an american it feels right to tip at least 5k on crafting, i mean you already tip the cashier at the grocery store / gas station like 5 bucks, is this that different?

somber sun
#

yeah that's fair

#

its around 7k here

keen dome
#

I typically tell people to tip whatever / whatever they think is fair. Most people tip between 2 or 5k gold. I personally just click button for whatever they tip, it's all income for me.

vale pine
#

tip should be at least 20-40% of the total costs

warm marlin
#

wait do americans tip cashiers

chrome palm
#

you dont?

warm marlin
#

..no

somber sun
#

crazy bro

#

and you speak to me like that

keen dome
#

Oh, I finally broke 10k. Hell yeah.

vale pine
lucid jackal
warm marlin
#

i might be cooked though

keen dome
vale pine
#

basically saying you need to tip 40%

chrome palm
#

just the other day the landlord changed the battery on the smoke alarm, had to give him a 10 to know i appreciate it

lucid jackal
#

LOLOL

warm marlin
#

the businesses pay them instead

#

easy solution

vale pine
#

We only tip in restaurants here, and even then its volunteerly. If the service is not nice, you don't tip

chrome palm
#

bingus im sorry we dont actually tip the cashier

#

i lied to u

vale pine
#

Also its typically not much, people will even look at you weirdly if you tip too much

warm marlin
#

crazy

#

you actually gaslighted me into looking up if ive been a scumbag this whole time

chrome palm
#

LOL

keen dome
#

I legit had american tourists try to tip me when I worked food retail (Upper class, expensive frozen ready meals)

#

It was surreal and big "uh, no, we don't do that here"

scarlet heath
#

peak comedy is when I use self-checkout station and it asks me for a tip

who am I tipping? the machine? I literally did all the work

dusky yacht
#

I mean sometimes people are "nicer" and only ask 5-10k I guess, but I've had days where I was asking like 4 crafters in a row and they're all like 20-30k, I mean it's whatever I got plenty gold at this point.

You guys were right, my "feelings" about blizzard doing class tuning to "cause" recrafts was obviously incorrect, but it was feelings.
Still don't see why an insult is therefore necessary tbh.

Somebody said it has something to do with it being a pvp server, but w/e I guess.

chrome palm
keen dome
#

Yep, absolutely

#

I have stories about that place lmao

warm marlin
keen dome
#

The old lady triplet's who stole frozen food. The grand mash potato heist. The guy who threw frozen christmas puddings at me..

warm marlin
#

other than start of new craft system in df every single craft on my servers has been tip what you want

#

and you make more money that way than requesting min tip

lilac stag
vale pine
#

Social media and reddit exposed a lot of bad actors

dusky yacht
keen dome
#

Nobody on my realm tries to demand a tip anymore. It's all just "tip what you want" 'cos it's all about volume now.

steel zinc
#

Sorry I am getting the pin correct we play now double finality and not wm anymore?

#

Trickster too?

vale pine
#

the worse thing we have here is the self checkout at mcdonalds asking you to put money into some welfare projects.

vale pine
#

replace it with finality or improved secret

keen dome
#

I'm glad I don't work for a profit industry anymore. We still have to deal with money but it's almost exclusively printing / fines now. It's great.

dusky yacht
vale pine
#

reason: apex 2 does not work on clone attacks from wm

steel zinc
#

Good to know kekw

vale pine
#

not on deathstalker

steel zinc
#

Ohh ok

#

But what on trickster?

#

I cba playing DS

vale pine
#

wm -> finality

#

on trickster

steel zinc
#

Ok 👍 how much loss?

vale pine
#

no loss

#

its actually better

#

wm just oversimmed

#

the big was not implemented

#

koji implemented it yesterday

#

so now we could re-evaluate talents

gilded ferry
#

its on nightly now?

vale pine
#

yes, its in latest

gilded ferry
#

gotcha

dusky yacht
#

This is so weird I actually looked at wm a few days ago and thought about trying double finality but decided against it lmao

vale pine
#

to be fair it is wm

#

and also tornado

#

but we never played tornado

#

it was even without the bug implemented worse

dusky yacht
#

Imagine the main theme of our spec is shadow clones and nothing works with it almost

vale pine
#

it is just a problem of design

steel zinc
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

yes

#

did re-run the single target sims

#

and update the talent strings

steel zinc
#

Ok gj ty fuu for your work

vale pine
#

need to thank koji and eleem too

dusky yacht
#

Imagine if we didn't have you guys figuring shit out for us we'd all be running around with questionably functioning talent builds

vale pine
#

it is actually interessting

#

not playing wm means we have even less diffrences between aoe and st

#

but thats subtlety ironically since df

#

we mostly have talent setups which work well in multiple situations

#

its just that certain talent changes tried to change that

#

e.g. danse macabre change

#

was aimed to make it only relevant on single target

warm marlin
#

from wm strike crit full gamba to blessed finality gaming

void ocean
#

If only we had rupture for that finality dracthyr_kek

gilded ferry
fossil forge
vale pine
#

i don't like the

#

"wait 1 sec for your haste to apply"

#

"use macros or lose gcd's with dance"

#

"optimize aa, because of design flaws"

void ocean
#

"not like" feels like an understatement

vale pine
#

and

#

"not having cleave, because auto cleave is apperntly 200iq"

sullen shell
#

Why are so many players still using wm on logs even after the bug was reported? Is it simply a lack of info on their part?

gilded ferry
#

are the logs recent?

#

check the dates

vale pine
#

we literally put out the information today

#

wait a week before logs adjust

sullen shell
#

Understood, thanks. I'll make the switch and drop wm for my raid tomorrow

astral mulch
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
surreal orbit
#

oh is there a new bug

vale pine
#

its not a new bug

#

but it wasn't implemented in simulationcraft

#

now it is

#

so simualtions correct now

#

and this means, we could re-evaluate a talent option

alpine wraith
#

basically just avoid all mines as the power lvl of talents gets lower

#

kekw imagine if new finality is the better points

#

how bad are the others

fair cloak
#

when we will get 298 weapons

vale pine
#

next reset

fair cloak
#

will it be better to use it on crafter dagger

vale pine
#

nope

fair cloak
#

k

#

thx

vale pine
#

best is to use on a mythic weapon

#

its like

quaint lodge
#

Fuu whats the possibility that gloomblade is bugged and its actually giga op

vale pine
#

mythic weapon > trinkers

alpine wraith
#

almost none

#

but maybe goremaw got its dmg 10x

quaint lodge
alpine wraith
#

and we dont know

vale pine
#

even if its 0.0000000001%

#

but ye, gloomblade is not good

quaint lodge
#

I wonder what the deal with deathstalker is

#

I wish I knew how to sim and I could read the APL myself, but it seems so daunting

#

Bleh

pulsar hemlock
#

How likely are we to get some real attention in 12.1

vale pine
#

deathstalker evis does more damage

tidal marsh
#

🔮

vale pine
#

so its slightly better on st

#

good enough to maybe justify playing on the single target fights

fair cloak
#

rogue feels so strong this week idk

#

im not orange parse and still first in dps

#

when they are purple

golden thunder
#

still nobody invites you to their m+

fair cloak
#

for me m+ is a choire

#

asf

surreal orbit
#

LF Meta comp MDI strat KWTD checking logs (competitive)

golden thunder
#

yeah... even for 15 now

fair cloak
#

imo its crazy how hard is getting to 10s

#

as 283 rogue

somber sun
#

yes

#

you need 290i

golden thunder
#

^^

somber sun
#

and then we start thinking

#

about getting an invite

quaint lodge
#

Ilvl doesn't really matter for invites, its Io generally speaking

#

I'm p sure everytime I've listed a 10 in the last week, I've been able to run them all with at least people 3400 the entire time

somber sun
#

guys would it be decent to reroll skyreach after getting all pos loot table ?

somber sun
quaint lodge
somber sun
#

I saw some ppl speaking about getting yeeted for a lower ilevel meta class

#

kinda rare here

golden thunder
#

yeah sure .io is... but if you dont get invites hard to push it

somber sun
#

they judge everything by ilevel

somber sun
#

and get shoulder and cloak

#

prob

#

for next 298 upgrade reset

fallow nimbus
#

I wait for vault but probably take the skyreach dagger for the 298 upgrade

#

Even if it costs me 20 crests

somber sun
#

yeah think ill full invest on that

#

crest cap sucks so much

iron imp
#

The pos>skyreach dagger is like 100 DPS or less depending on stats

#

Gotta be somewhere better to be using that reroll

fallow nimbus
#

No roll needed when you have all the items OMEGAKEKW

#

I rolled 1 m+ roll and got the 2nd nexus ring after I took the haste/mast one a week before cloudcover

iron imp
#

Better use of crests too. I bet upgrading pants or chest would be more DPS from agi

fallow nimbus
#

Yeah upgrading big slots first takes priority

#

But after that who cares about cloak or wrists

quaint lodge
#

the stats are fine on both

somber sun
#

yeaa

#

think Ill just see what vault has to offer and Ill look what to roll on after

steel zinc
#

guys, whats the better spec atm between assa and sub in m+? assuming mostly bis on each?

What brings the „First Dance Tracker“ did anyone use it ?

vale pine
#

it shows you a timer

#

for the first dance

#

which is a talent, that extends your dance duation after you are out of combat for a certain time

gilded thistle
#

somber sun
#

I dont know much kekw

#

I joined like 3 weeks ago

#

feels like sht to upgrade stuff

gilded thistle
#

yeah im behind on upgrades

shrewd lantern
#

waiting on crest cap every week to gain more ilvl like:

gilded thistle
#

i did pull myth gaze from vault tho

#

feelsgood

somber sun
#

I bet everyone was 285 ilevel by week 6

#

just remove the cap

gilded thistle
#

actually I guess I'm not really behind, i'm just not capped yet this week

shrewd lantern
#

nah the cap is fine

#

degening to 289 otherwise

#

first month in

gilded thistle
#

I think it lasts too long

#

at this point it feels like we should be uncapped

hazy breach
#

The bonus rolls were introduced too early

shrewd lantern
#

^

somber sun
#

trueee

hazy breach
#

So everybody has 10 mythic items

shrewd lantern
#

bonus rolls give infinite gear

hazy breach
#

That they cant upgrade

#

So either delay the bonus rolls or give more crests

gilded thistle
#

yeah i got like 4 pieces in my bags i cant use

shrewd lantern
#

im rolling AA for funnies

#

in the event they gigabuff assa

warm marlin
somber sun
#

reroll to still keep full 276 gear

warm marlin
#

then we got opposite problem

#

my alt guys have too many crests!

#

gg

lucid jackal
#

Ppl greed sickens me

hazy breach
#

When theyre useless

gilded thistle
#

picking up a gaze really fucked my plans

lucid jackal
#

Bonus roll raid then garf_sit

gilded thistle
#

now i gotta upgrade this instead of fixing all the pieces in my bags

#

feelsbad

lucid jackal
#

Raid = crest save

#

Idk how its greedy to say that they shouldve waited with the release of bonus rolls

warm marlin
lucid jackal

Yeah exactly

#

I know the feeling

shrewd lantern
#

#

why does that feel like a self report

hazy breach
#

Going by sims DS is worth like 6-8 race changes garf_sit

shrewd lantern
#

how many people actually went panda

#

because of how it looks

and not because it sims higher

thin sinew

there's an irony in that statement

#

with that pfp

somber sun
warm marlin
#

is it irony or knowledge?

somber sun
#

1-2%?

thin sinew
#

What actual is the deviation across races atm?

hazy breach
shrewd lantern
#

probably 1-2 over good races

#

maybe more compared to the dogshit races

#

idk

#

like panda compared to something worthless like vulpera or nightborne

#

might be bigger

hazy breach
#

Panda just have sick animations

somber sun
#

I heard eleem is playing rogue human garf

hazy breach
#

Especially feint

hallow mortar
#

are you guys going after nexus ring with coins now?

hazy breach
#

Yerp

hallow mortar
#

or they are not that good ?

shrewd lantern
#

did that first

#

even with cloudcover

#

so....

hallow mortar
#

well, i went for first boss trinket since we never dropped guidon on mythic this season

#

already spent two rolls there

hazy breach
#

The provide stats + a free damage proc, so why not

shrewd lantern
#

spent 4?

#

got a chest which i didnt have myth of which is nice

#

and an outlaw weapon

lucid jackal
somber sun
#

isnt the drop table kinda ehh on npx ?

hallow mortar
#

yeah i got chest there too

shrewd lantern
#

most of the loot is fine in npx

#

gloves are a bit bin since they drop off vora

hallow mortar
#

i think i have rings hands and outlaw wep left there to roll on

thin sinew
#

NPX blessed me with 2 items i needed out of it's whole pool in 2 rolls so i'm not complaining

golden thunder
#

i farmed everything from SR ^^

hallow mortar
#

i have crafted ring

golden thunder
#

trinkets, weapons, cloak, 2 set pieces ...

hallow mortar
#

but if i can travel in time i would not craft it

shrewd lantern
#

im just coining AA on the offchance assa gets buffed

hallow mortar
#

my only non myth slot is ring and one trinket

shrewd lantern
#

i mean i still got some hero pieces since crest cap

#

and have sockets on heroic items

hallow mortar
#

gotta fix trinket since it can get voidforged at some point

#

i wonder how the void forge will work

#

hopefully its time gated

shrewd lantern
#

think someone said its random drops from doing content

somber sun
#

yeah obv

#

would suck to see a full 298 uhdk

shrewd lantern
#

well they cant be full 298

#

since its only 4 slots

hallow mortar
#

its only weapons and trinkets

somber sun
#

yeah

#

on the available slots obv

shrewd lantern
#

send mh then gaze and guidon

hallow mortar
#

it will be akward if you can farm all slots first week tbh

swift tinsel
#

Wonder if it’ll apply to shields and offhand since they’re considered armor not weapons

#

Just lose on stat scaling

shrewd lantern
#

its not toxic to wish some tanks i get in pugs

#

go bald by 25 right

somber sun
#

no bro

#

natural

#

I mean

hallow mortar
#

i leved up my hunter like 2 or maybe 3 weeks ago and he will hit ilvl achiv first

#

sadge

somber sun
#

a lot of stress from pugging and tanking

#

evntually it will happen

thin sinew
#

Jokes on you bald is king

somber sun
#

btw the achiv makes you spend 40 instead of 80 for 6/6 myth ?

shrewd lantern
#

people acting like the vora dagger is bad

shrewd lantern
#

oh no 20 ish vers

#

its so bad guys!

lost sundial
calm wing

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
shrewd lantern
#

pretty sure sending the 20 gilded to upgrade another slot

#

is more dps

#

than changing one secondary on a wep

ripe flame
#

Maybe a silly question but is there a way to sim with hunt only giving vers?

shrewd lantern
#

is this a lura question

ripe flame
#

Maybe garf

shrewd lantern
#

i forger what the windchime counts as

ripe flame
#

Idk but you only get vers

shrewd lantern
#

i question its value too

warm marlin
#

gimme a moment to find it

ripe flame
warm marlin
#

midnight.darkmoon_hunt_race

#

i dont remember what lura is but mechanical will work

#

that one gives vers

ripe flame
#

Thanks a lot king 👑

warm marlin
#

so midnight.darkmoon_hunt_race=mechanical hmmge

ripe flame
#

Its mostly for funsies since I dont think the difference would be anything remotely significant but I need to kill the p1 boredom somehow

tidal solstice
#

i love how mages need to be told twice to lust and still takes 10 seconds into a fight to pop it

#

please blizz give us the job, they fucking suck at it

shrewd lantern
#

mages arent people

hazy breach
#

Back in the olden days you always had rogues do everything

warm marlin
#

now i grip stuff

somber sun
#

we save runs with our interrupts tho

#

ohhh

warm marlin
shrewd lantern
#

he swapped to dk to do almost as little

warm marlin
#

oh i am getting grippy with it

#

dw

mortal arch
hazy breach
tidal solstice
#

lowkey tired of relying on ranged to perform mechanics the melee got 10-20 pulls ago.

somber sun
shrewd lantern
#

in general

ripe flame
shrewd lantern
#

i saw a dk do 40k on bosses

#

at 278

warm marlin
#

or at least old sub

#

bit of ramp into biggie burst every 90s

somber sun
#

I think

#

they just apply their plagues

#

and afk

ripe flame
shrewd lantern
steady sail
#

Anyone got the secret tech for Saprish in Seat of the Triumvirate, getting chased down by the tank on the meter and the other 2 dps are just off on their own

hazy breach
#

Idk sub just sucks on 2-3 targets

gilded thistle
steady sail
#

So just make up for the time in the rest of it and accept that it'll be a long fight there

shrewd lantern
#

Well if tank is close that is user error

limber folio
steady sail
gilded thistle
shrewd lantern
#

yeah thats gonna happen

hazy breach
#

Well you are simming without most buffs and consumables

gilded thistle
#

oh

#

okay so the answer is yes

#

I am missing something

shrewd lantern
#

sub sucks at 3t

gilded thistle
#

thank you

tidal solstice
#

first boss in AA on a 14 and I knew the run was cooked

tidal solstice
hollow spear
#

At least the shaman was consistent with it

tidal solstice
#

was mostly a clean run and if we hadnt wiped on trash before veximus it wouldve been timed

#

the disparity in logs vs blizz meter is funny

#

this carried io site is friggin great lol

fiery fog
#

what was the thing called that we can use instead of oil? some tbc item

tidal solstice
#

adamantite weapon stone i think it was

fossil forge
#

inflating carried io kick score ✅

tribal blade
#

so your dps will always be lower in a key log

#

vs in game meters

hazy breach
#

It also takes deaths into account

drifting ether
#

We were blessed with sub rogue in the mdi 🥳

hazy breach
#

As it takes the entire timer of the key

tidal solstice
#

im doing my part!

tribal blade
#

bear is now becoming the meta tank

#

i have a 3900 MW buddy

#

who is probably very very happy about this

gilded thistle
#

is saladbar add damage filtered?

#

i see all the top parses skip pp

marble path
#

no the small balls just die insta

gilded thistle
#

I guess my guild just slow

marble path
#

idt u run pp on anything but dragons across all 9

marble path
#

and paladins but if ur sub on paladins ur trolling

tribal blade
#

naohw puts sub in A-tier for keys

#

tight

somber sun
#

trust

brisk wind
#

Does coup de grâce have aoe?

hazy breach
#

Nimble Flurry in the trickster tree

tribal blade
#

maybe outlaw actually deserved to get nerfed

#

they're one of the best dps in keys now

somber sun
#

I mean

#

High investment high reward

#

Not some brain dead spread plague and spam one button

tribal blade
#

that is not how blizz sees tuning

swift tinsel
#

Got the outlaw npx mainhand maybe we switch for keys

#

Yeah see current bear

tribal blade
#

yeah current bear is braindead

somber sun
tribal blade
#

and the best tank

tribal blade
#

but it's not how they see it

somber sun
#

How do they approach it ? I'm clueless regarding that

swift tinsel
#

That’s the great mystery

somber sun
swift tinsel
#

Bc sometimes it makes zero sense how they approach it

hazy breach
#

They typically aim to not upset the balance too hard by overnerfing stuff that people have fotm rerolled to

swift tinsel
#

Usually you’ll see some buffs/nerfs to the top and bottom 2-3 specs

#

^

tribal blade
hazy breach
#

But rather just try to minimize the difference between the outliers

tribal blade
#

i'm not mad though, sub is doing well

#

and that's all that matters to me

swift tinsel
#

Yeah it’s just a little bleh gameplay in keys

hazy breach
#

But also like, sometimes a spec looks bad because nobody is playing it well and/or theres another build that people havent discovered yet

tribal blade
#

very true yeah

hazy breach
#

Like right now if everybody was playing deathstalker sub on bosses i think we would move up quite a bit on the raid rankings

#

But the 1.1k haste is quite restrictive

swift tinsel
#

Maybe I’ll do that on reclear next week lol

#

Yeah that part makes it almost non-starter for a lot of people

hazy breach
#

And there is more to playing it as well, since you want pretty much all of your darkest nights to be apexed

swift tinsel
#

It feels very unnatural after playing trickster for so long

#

Bc you’re not just sending the macro Sectech+dance all the time you actually have to pay some attention to that

tribal blade
swift tinsel
#

Actually I think I can 1.1k haste so maybe I’ll give it a try in some throwaway keys

#

(Doubt)

#

Or raid

hazy breach
tribal blade
hazy breach
#

Ideally you sit on 1 stack of mark and build sht stacks so that your dance+storm procs apex for the DN

tribal blade
#

ok yeah

hazy breach
#

Ideally every single supercharger should be sectech+dn (apexed)

#

But its quite hard to do

#

Depends on your procs

#

sometimes you just have to give up one of them

tribal blade
#

so every dance would ideally be 1 mark>dance+storm>sectec>strike till apex>DN

hollow spear
#

So you go dance-storm-strike-sectec-strike-dn?

tribal blade
#

or if you have DN already DN>sectec

hollow spear
#

Or do you forego apexing sectec?

hazy breach
#

sectech dont need apex

swift tinsel
#

Sectech quite weak for ds

hazy breach
#

But you dance when you have either sectech or DN

tribal blade
#

tight

swift tinsel
#

Supercharged apexed DN goes hard

hazy breach
#

So sometimes you dont end up supercharging sectech

tribal blade
#

mmm ok interesting

hazy breach
#

But like, DN with apex does more damage than sectech

tribal blade
#

ok yeah that makes the conditions for going into dance more than trickster

hollow spear
hazy breach
hollow spear
#

Ok gotcha

hazy breach
#

But probably on most bosses ngl

hollow spear
#

I mean I don't mind a balance like that between hero talents

#

You play trickster for "cleave" (brings a tear to my eye to say this) and deathstalker for boss damage

#

The haste conditions are unfortunately cringe

tidal solstice
hollow spear
#

Technically, but meh

hazy breach
#

Yeah but unfortunately the BPs do like 20% less than they do as trickster

swift tinsel
#

Free us from this breakpoint/cdr hell

hollow spear
#

Isn't sin's funnel mostly about scent?

hazy breach
#

They dont play deathstalker rn

hollow spear
#

Also true

craggy quail
#

anyone notice pikaboo using this poisons in skyreach +17?

swift tinsel
#

Maybe just habit

craggy quail
#

i think this

swift tinsel
#

Lethal poison for sub is whatever

#

Does like no dmg

hazy breach
#

There can be some healing from the orbs if you dont kill them fast enough

#

But besides that theres nothing in skyreach, maissara and terrace have some great uses of wound though

craggy quail
#

have no min max with this poisons on sub?

hollow spear
#

Poisons on sub OMEGAKEKW

tidal solstice
#

for keys where tanks have to kite packs wouldnt it be better to run crippling instead of atrophic?

quaint lodge
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
hazy breach
#

Oh no, your poisons will do 0.1% of your damage instead of 0.2%

jade oasis
#

i don’t apply poisons

#

chemical warfare is a war crime

hollow spear
#

The green colour of instant poison goes against sub's class fantasy

hazy breach
jade oasis
#

poisons are a sin thing

hazy breach
#

Would generally recommend numbing poison for most keys though

jade oasis
#

since those guys r unethical

hollow spear
#

Checked their channel yesterday, first thing I see ends with -ussy

tidal solstice
hazy breach
#

What

mortal arch
tidal solstice
#

or maybe thats bosses

somber sun
hazy breach
#

It generally does not reduce the cast speed of bosses abilties

jade oasis
hollow spear
jade oasis
#

more shadow dmg stuff would be cool

craggy quail
#

we have a talent for shadow poison

#

if i remember correct

somber sun
#

Yeah imagine 2nd top damage after evisc is a shadow dot

craggy quail
#

but anyone use because is no good

hazy breach
#

But realistically its just +10% shadow damage

#

And that is actually very good

#

Just not good enough to warrant giving up macabre or shadowcraft for, as you have to path through finality (which isnt that great) to get it

jade oasis
#

it’d be cool if dark brew was good

#

especially with the alleria neck

hazy breach
#

The neck does the same damage regardless. Anything your class does thats +shadow/magic/whatever damage only works on spells from the class, not items

jade oasis
#

bc

#

it’s stronger than weapon master no?

hazy breach
#

Yes

grizzled bay
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
jade oasis
#

one more more talent point away.

#

from the dream.

mortal arch
#

I love when they just throw a "you also do x% more damage" on a talent

hazy breach
#

And if something from your class works on items, its generally considered a bug.

tribal blade
#

that poison thing on DB is laughable

craggy quail
tribal blade
#

would be cooler if DB affected our autos or something

jade oasis
#

put a dot on things

#

make the adds like

#

cough up smoke or something

tribal blade
swift tinsel
#

On top of something cool

#

Idk I still want to see our dmg be like 80/20 shadow to phys

surreal orbit
#

which raid buffs influence our shadow damage?

swift tinsel
#

Most of them

#

Either directly or indirectly

#

Probably Fort/evoker being the only ones that don’t

#

Also something they could have done when we still had rupture was have BP detonate it

#

So the tedium of spreading it felt more worth it

short radish
#

yeah even battle shout does since it's not coded directly for physical damage

swift tinsel
#

Just a nice juicy AP buff

#

Mastery buffs it via shadowed finishers and clones

short radish
swift tinsel
#

Chaos brand is obv

#

Ye

#

Figured that one went without saying bc we have no int scaling lol

short radish
#

look tell that to 11 year old me playing maple story and putting points in int for my thief because "i didn't want to be stupid"

swift tinsel
#

Wish they’d make us pure shadow dmg in dance and then shadowed finishers buffed clones that spawn from finishers

#

By adding +1 clone or something

#

Make that a capstone to replace gb

hollow spear
#

I mean failing int saving throws because you're a dumbass is a thing in some crpg

swift tinsel
#

Lmao true

#

If wow had ability scores you gained from a pre-test that’d be funny

hollow spear
#

Evasion failed because your character is a fatass panda bear

swift tinsel
#

Stealth checks failed bc hooves

hollow spear
#

Would be hilarious

swift tinsel
#

Every mob has truesight if you’re Tauren or space goat lmao

hollow spear
#

For a couple of minutes, then you'd lose your shit after missing sectec on your dwarf because the flying harpy was out of reach

swift tinsel
#

Omg attack range based on race

#

Nelf male can attack across the map

hollow spear
swift tinsel
#

Literal longest arms

hollow spear
#

Finally sub can be uhdk

#

Just have to pick the right race

white nova
#

any tips for dpsing double dragons?

swift tinsel
#

live the code, the code of the dragon

#

fight for right, the might of the dragon

#

have to think of the 90's animated series whenever I see Double Dragon

hollow spear
#

Looking good on the meters or boss damage?

white nova
#

boss damage lol

tribal blade
#

send everything on cd

#

don't hold for orbs

white nova
#

i know i could just spam powder, but that seems kind of shitty

hollow spear
#

Don't sectec the orbs

white nova
#

10-4

#

so just pepper the orbs

#

simple enough

tribal blade
#

if you want to do solely boss dmg you play as if the orbs don't exist kinda

hollow spear
#

Have to just see if your guild struggles with killing them or not

swift tinsel
#

me ignoring adds most of the time

white nova
#

i can do that, my guild is thirsty for aoeing. so i usually stay away from it

tribal blade
#

you can do decent boss dmg holding dances for orbs

shrewd lantern
#

this late into the tier

#

as long as you dont fear breath the raid

jade oasis
shrewd lantern
#

does it matter?

tribal blade
#

not really

shrewd lantern
#

yeah exactly

tribal blade
#

wasn't a serious dps check on dragons many weeks ago

white nova
#

my guild is casual bros, i just want to do good

tribal blade
#

definitely not now

jade oasis
#

they need to remove add dmg from logs already

tribal blade
#

you will look very good on the meters if you hold dances for orbs

jade oasis
#

i actually can’t beat my parses anymore bc adds die too quick now

tribal blade
#

yeah big reason why it got removed from all stars

jade oasis
#

like

#

dev dh sends one star and adds are gone

shrewd lantern
#

blizz be like

#

"yeah that class needs a another buff"

tidal solstice
#

meanwhile im just trying to convince the ranged to get their asses closer to the bosses and huddle and im sure its gonna be a solid 10 more pulls until they get it 😄

#

i drop my orb right on the bosses, closer in than eve the tanks, and somehow I'm still the first to break tether

#

and orbs are all over creation making nuking them down impossible

final gulch
#

wait until you find out they do it on purpose

final gulch
#

more cleave/funnel for them if they leave it out :D

#

me @ ranged players

#

and lust players that wait for their own cds in keys

ember hull
#

is there a way in logs to see how much damage my atrophic like prevented

unreal ledge
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT

In all of my guild runs, they're insanely far from each other

So you just go potent powder and blast ?

sturdy mesa
#

!stats

tribal blade
#

i did heroic dragons with x2 finality instead of PP for science

#

seems fine

serene notch
#

do i go with the haste recomendation for guidon or without if i have emberwing?............finally got a on use T_T

tribal blade
#

heroic paladins exCUSE ME?!

#

is sub doing dmg on paladins now???

#

@lilac stag you can play sub on paladins now i think

#

look at this

gilded ferry
short radish
#

its kinda insane that you did 25k more dps than me but we still both get 99

tribal blade
tribal blade
#

nice that was a rank 2 parse

#

the trick might have been i weaved in a lot of storms

old ravine
astral mulch
#

Wait how did you do that in sub lol

tribal blade
#

i'm just a GOD (no i'm not)

astral mulch
#

I gotta see a log

#

I’m impressed af

tribal blade
#

i honestly dunno

astral mulch
#

That’s insane though man

#

Grats

ember hull
#

yall running atrophic or numbing on high keys

tribal blade
#

1 thing i did was not only spamming strike in dance

#

i weaved in storms randomly

#

more DM hits i guess

acoustic lodge
#

is there a world where we ever take dark brew

ember hull
#

yea im trying to get 18 wr and i feel like mfs dying a lot and i could maybe help more with atroph

tribal blade
#

but dunno if it amounted to anything

#

might have been charrend

short radish
#

10% more sectech crits than me

tribal blade
#

just crit more 5head

acoustic lodge
short radish
tribal blade
tribal blade
#

hey uh

#

someone may have just realized

#

they didn't pick up the raid buff from march

#

some unnamed rogue

#

dunno who

#

need to investigate this matter

short radish
tribal blade
#

that explains why my march parses have been getting progressively worse every week

#

and i couldn't figure out why 🙂

shrewd lantern
#

didnt you only have to get it once

tribal blade
#

well someone may have not even realized

#

they didn't pick it up

#

from march only

#

and gotten it from the other 2 raids

shrewd lantern
#

what a silly someone

plush roost
tribal blade
plush roost
#

This in raid is similar ST to normal DS talents with slightly added aoe from DB

#

In m+ its just not possible unlucky

#

I need to try no lashe + finalityx2 at some point dor m+

#

I think brew is deadge tho

#

For keys

shrewd lantern
plush roost
#

Its good

#

Sims very close iirc

shrewd lantern
#

the nice part about shifting the st build to 2/2 finality

#

is we get some occasional extra bp pad value

plush roost
#

This was 3 weeks ago or so

shrewd lantern
plush roost
#

So before we switched off wm for ist

tribal blade
#

ok got a 98 on heroic lura

#

i'm not a shitter

#

raid buff makes a diff looks like

#

that's crazy

brisk wind
#

Should I bother making champion gear tier set or wait for hero?

odd sandal
#

What do we use besides Phoenix oils?

swift tinsel
#

since you can get more cata charges from doing m+raid/delves/pvp

brisk wind
#

So just turn 4 pieces asap ?

short radish
#

yes

brisk wind
#

mkay ty

shrewd lantern
dark mural
#

Anyone have any tips on the 2nd pit boss? Should I send cds on pull and finish using them on the adds?

tribal blade
slim bridge
#

Can someone help with my sims? They seem to be prioritizing haste a lot more than they should.

#

For example, haste flask is simming higher even though I have guidon and 700 haste

tribal blade
slim bridge
#

Guild has me simming 2 target patchwerk

tribal blade
#

oh ok yeah

#

seems like the sims will want you to get more haste if it's more than 1 target

#

i've seen 3 target patchwerk do the same thing

#

might be that

#

i would just build for 700

slim bridge
#

Okay, ty!

tribal blade
#

np!

!macro

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.

hollow spear
#

The 1 missing point of DP?

alpine wraith
#

it is missing potent powder

#

so it is donezo

#

but for st tis fine

plush roost
#

could drop lashe but in my experience its just too much damage

#

prio damage at that

gilded thistle
#

do you need to stay in melee range of the primary target for cdg to fully hit, or can I cast it and run off if I need to

#

same question about facing requirement too i guess

hollow spear
small sleet
#

potent powder is an absurdly strong talent for aoe, even if dungeon slice does not show it

#

potent powder is much stronger than another point in finality

hollow spear
#

It is in mass aoe

#

It's dead in st though

#

And I thought it performed much better than it actually did

tribal blade
#

it's interesting charrend was able to do big dmg running x2 finality in AA

#

i might mess around with it

steel zinc
#

more aoe

tribal blade
steel zinc
#

I think AA has so many big pulls might be worth

peak ice
#

I accidentally ran my raid build in a 14 yesterday

tribal blade
#

how much of a prio/st loss is it running brew over DM

#

lemme see

peak ice
#

You can defo feel like a little in packs, but u demolish the boss

earnest crane
#

i m currently at 762 haste should i change one weapon enchant to breserker rage ?

tribal blade
#

i think

peak ice
#

Idk if I’d give up flat agi

earnest crane
#

so hard to reach 800 hasste

tribal blade
#

current gear is DB, M+ is standard build w/ PP, dslice sim

#

patchwerk

#

10 targets

#

unfortunately i'm not sure how to check prio gain/loss

peak ice
#

Feel like I’m just going to stick with pp

dreamy wedge
#

What prio do you really have that is not just pure ST?

tribal blade
#

sub gets it's prio currently with unseen blade, coup and DM hits

#

those 3 things are enough to make sub's prio pretty decent

dusky yacht
#

Are you geared for crit or mastery though? Won’t crit or mast stacking strongly affect dps in this case? Since finality is crit related and pp mast? @tribal blade
