I mean im sure theres some balance issue swith just slapping a dmg split on all blood dk shields apart from AMS
But they can figure that out with some DS nerfs or something
I'd prefer if they had bone shield contribute something to that
or have that be the vehicle for the splitting
removing tombstone and bonestorm made bone shield feel pretty shit
Hoping for apex procs to up your charges
I hate blood, and veng apex
On deathbringer it kinda doesnt matter at least
On sanlayn getting the proc RIGHT after your 7 stacks drop is horrible
Ive been prespamming heart strike sometimes to try and catch a proc
the proc ones interact weirdly
remember what they took from you
I don't wanna think about that lmao
An ability you press before your cds and a mini game that makes you press all your generators?
you wouldnt get it
No i actually dont
maybe I level enh sham next
I do agree that this version is too simple, maybe not to the same degree tho
I gotta get a monk up to see if i enjoy WW/Brew
Or druid
Even tho feral is kinda ass
I just want a class where i enjoy dps and tank
flag was much more than just an ability you pressed before cds
flag and a few other things prevented the spec from being "macro that does everything at once"
i never forget what they took from me
this was peak btw
i acutally miss it
the saladbar v1 pre ramp
tbh that was the biggest enjoyment in beloran
doing all the absolute degen preramp stuff for like 5% more dps
If we’re not doing degen things are we even playing sub rogue?
💯
At least rn i spam backstab for like 4gcds before every dance
i don't because if i spam, it means i might not be able to go into dance+sectech straight away
our ele is out today so i'm about to do beloren prog with no skyfury
ooooft
the robot wants me to farm AA for the ring after getting both from npx
I will not be doing that
Blizzard has taken control of the robot in order to keep you engaged by showing you non existent upgrades
can drop 40 from belt or dagger
off hand is 40 usually
Yeah was gonna say, just one recraft
Yeah belt kinda big
but ye just gonna recraft oh
ye just do OH
haven't honestly looked at belt slot in like a month lol
now to return to the pit for neck roll
H aleria neck is better 😛 lol
but then u drop a lot of stat lol
I'm using the seat neck rn 
or need to drop a lot of haster
not for my gear its not
myth pit beats hero alleria
otherwise I have to swap a lot of other slots
What about crafted haste/mastery
current gear probably but i think overall its a bit better
285 ilvl and if i swap rings and get H alleria neck i get like 1.2% dps
Sounds wrong
its basically just a haste injection that I don't need because of my other gear
and yes that sounds wrong
at equal ilvl maybe
Mmm
It's not even close to 1.2% at ilvl parity
The crafted mythic one outdoes its proc dps for me
Something else is wrong
If you ignore secondaries and just assume you can reach the same outcome by shuffling around gear, I think the proc was worth 0.4%
in pure st
yeah we're comparing vastly different gear sets lol
a hero neck to hero neck
vs hero to myth
was talking about other dude linking sim
I crafted neck after embellishments just to have the haste
I'm at 118.5k just need to get a socket for bracers and a couple last slots
im using pvp neck
and npx rings
I was lazy and didnt get that
ye I wasn't gonna pvp for that lol
lucked into a champ crown neck early and rode that out til I got hero choker
I was but i wanted to do it all in one week
Which wasnt possible and i had the sparks laying around before finishing the 4 weeklies
would be kinda nice if Dungeon Journal loot pool showed what you can still roll on
actually skyreach is the play for boots and cloak
Yeah i cleaned skyreach
idk if I've rolled there at all yet so it'd be a crapshoot
I got most of pit and npx cleared
and rolled for myth gaze so lots 2x there
Annoyingly still missing a helmet so i rolled first boss last week
Got cloak as the only miss
praying for socketed vora bracers in upcoming vault, or cloak/boots
Next week 50/50 between boots/helmet
Or i just get helmet in vault and im literally done apart from getting AA ring and one more roll in skyreach for guaranteed boots
puzzle box simming higher than guidon?
prog kill BIG

probably no degen holding sc anymore
OOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!
!stats
No but might be better
might not have enough haste without haste flask
how long of a remaining CD should i have on Shadow blades before i start holding dance/sectec
with or wihtout consumes
Even with all the changes that sim is making?
Cause youre simming A LOT more than what flask to use
? 17?
Depends on situation but for ST you dont wanna delay it at all unless youd get downtime during blades
i think adding everything in that gear set you have like 500 haste
you want 700 no consumes or sumn
700 with consumes
i mean like haste flask mb
700 with everything wasnt it?
Yep
700 without haste flask
like oil which i didnt sim
You can use a haste flask
just wondering why on 3 target haste flask
dungeon slice tells me mastery flask
1 target tells me crit flask
xD
The annoying thing with this haste requirement is that all u can sim is swaps where you wouldnt drop haste
Cause dungeon slice is prettt trash
If at 700/800 use mastery/crit flask
If nit use haste
simming rog is so annoying ngl xD
I do crit flask for ST, mastery flask for m+ and any fight id run potent powder on
So dragons, paladins
Idk if crown and march are PP, i dont think they are
and how about how long of a CD on sec tec before i stop evis and just keep backstabbing for shadow techniques stacks
5ish?
Yeah something like that
kk ty
Shadow tech only comes from autos doesn’t it
Yep
You get so many stacks of shadow tech from shadow dance anyways it never seems to be a issue to line up the overcharge
you stop sending dance/sectech when blades cd is <10sec
@warm marlin help! how to do get manaflux quickly. 4/5 mythic tier slots with best non-tier shoulders from pit. 
erm
i mean arena seems to be good but i mostly just keep grinding whatever i need for crests and hope to highroll
no hunter btw
just to save crests right
ye
but tbh
you dont really need to save crests like that if you have myth achieve
its hard to even waste an amount of myth that would make you run out
you can do it to save time farming more myth though
i'm trying to inflate ilvl for pugging hahah
i've got nothing to spend the shards on. made a heroic weapon and sharded that. got the shit trinekt from aa and have 2+ void shards
was changing few sockets and gear after few sims, and suddenlty heard the "like a glove" from the ace ventura movie
is there a functional difference between this and 700 ? I can swap gems if 700 is genuinely important just curious if it is
miss jim carrey so much, prime era of humor movies.
that is perfectly fine

!stats
684 is the ideal breakpoint anyway
!FUU
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
1.100 is the ideal breakpoint

pretty much a little bit more leeway for human error or something
if you run deathstalker it's 1100 tho yeah
you'll be fine with that haste

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.
!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 or
Icy Veins.

is it weird that Mythic Trap still doesnt have mythic Lura guide written?
maybe the person who keeps it updated hasn't started progging lura yet, who knows
good morning lovely people. Do we still play trickster, or did the deathstalker hype start
people will riot before they see the DS darkness
I'm not getting 1100 haste so hope that answers your question
what changed that we would switch?
nothing, its just ahead in pure single target
and given that people now have higher gear levels and more access to gear
some might try to min/max around that
u scared the shit out of me, went to wowhead...
haha

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
is there any pure ST fight?
Ds will probably outperform on alleria and lura
I still have my 3 keybind unbound from the sub changes. Maybe I bind that to the ability that lets you move your mark lmao
any fight is ST if you don't care enough 😂
going under in first grp on chima, u say? i aint moving from boss untill the burst is over 😄
aln
guidon hc to mythic doesnt make too much dif, mostly coming from agi upgrade
haste is already enough from hc one
i just wanna be once again sure u understood that u should upgrade Gaze first 😄
guidon should give more than off hand
dunno exactly bout that one, i wouldnt personally
Quite sure it does
All 3 are kinda shit.
the only trinket really worth upgrading is box
otherwise only MH, and all other 3 are kinda close
order of upgrades recommended in pinned message
humilating dks
I think they might be doing it to themselves
3.8 IO score
298 box is insane for m+
not really tho
just upgrade whatever you want
the voidcores are infinitely acquirable
literally doesn't matter
whats the ww doing
His best
paid 42k for a boost
ww obv needs a buff
i think it has to be a bountiful t11 delve to be guaranteed
you are correct.
t11 delves good
heroic raid is real fast too
and the nightmare prey boxes are 2 per week
that takes 10 mins total
so it's good too
full heroic clear literally took me 40 mins
and most of that was travel time between bosses
Ill just afk lfr later today as well
my last chimaerus kill i accidentally went in the otherside three times in a row 😂
doesnt that kill you
second one procced cheat death
I know but on holidays so easier to run it as well + delves
the dungeon? 😄
third one i used CoS because well, if i didn't we'e have lacked a dps 😂
I was backstabbing boss wiped out the whole melee
Backstab mechanics not my fault
besides a warrior and the two tanks i'm the only melee in my raid lmao
they are keeping me in just for racial diversity, i'm the mechagnome mascot i think ./s
no grips has to be pretty rough on some bosses
Everyone from other group rushed behind chim and i was busy backstabbing
The good part about chimmy is that you dont need to do it after a certain point
if you have enough DKs, DH and boomies, every fight this tier are ST fights lmao
Bc ppl should have gaze with the bonus rolls quite quickly
i dont need to raid on my dk at all anymore, have both guidon and gaze
rolled 94 on guidon in pugs, saved myself a roll
i think most people are almost fully geared by now, and the few missing pieces can just be vaulted anyways
p sure this week would've been last bonus roll on gaze if I didn't get it before
Same for me on rogue, only thing i 'need' is alleria neck
bonus rolled twice on gaze to get it in vault after all that
Need to kill her first tho
i mean on pugs thats gonna be tough
yeah pretty surei won't see alleria mythic any time soon
only got to dragons two days ago
need a few more items on my rogue and then back to classic i guess 😄
i'm a filthy casual
We got to dragons last week ago but failed roster boss this week
Also only 1 day a week
3h

Hope we skip chimmy at least
3 hours per week is pretty rough
Should start extending lockout soon
!buffs
yeha i think we will extend lockout after this week too
what was the command again to see how much we gain from like skyfury etc?
since most of us have what we need from the first bosses
Yeah but what do ppl need from raid from vault

ty
well some still needed guidon and gaze
but i think we all got it last week now
How, this is gonna be the 5th reset for rerolls
but we got many new members that don't know north to south or see signs
so i guess reclearing is practice
Oh new members okay
i'm just glad we still get 20 people to go raid
I still need helmet and boots but they dont need to be from first boss voidspire
i need boots legs and shoulders, but i'll just
Can just roll em from vault or m+ reroll
bonus roll them from a dungeon or vault
Yeah i got guaranteed boots sitting in skyreach, plus qn outlaw weapon if i wanna play forbidden 1300 mastery outlaw
i think NPX ring set is a slight upgrade too, missing the void one
last time i simmed it was like 0.5% dps
over the crafted ring i have
The dmg proc alone is ~0.4%
i'd just need to replace my haste gems for mastery ones to compensate
I should start thinking about what to bonus roll next week
nvm it's 1.5%
still have heroic head, wrist and rings
I hope i get helmet from vault so i can try to grab a puzzle box and start throwing together an assa set
Wanna at least try it to have a bit of variation
i've had a puzzle box mythic sitting in my bags for a month now
Esp in m+
haven't used it since
I still don't know how to properly play assa and I still did +20k dps on vanguard compared to my sub kill 
Yeah thats also something im looking at, its gonna be horrible on sub
Esp since we kinda vibed through every boss so far and will vibe through dragons too im pretty sure
very funny when we first cleared that
i hope i vibe through dragons
All bosses including dragons kinda felt like hc bosses idk
We got to like 35% first time getting there
one could say theres not much to know
dragons is very rough for the tanks
I just lack experience with it I feel
for dragons we had our unholy dk swap to blood as third tank just to mass grip orbs
also nice during prog he could take over when a tank died
our roster for first dragon prog
14 pulls to get a best at 36%
i think if we had another hour and started with dragons somehow we coulda killed it
I've seen ppl make insane orb spreads diagrams and shit
all u gotta do is not stand on ppl
it's nice to have people stack as close to eachother as possible every time
yeah so far all we had to do is yell at our DKs to grip in the tank orbs
boomie, BM, Dev Evoker and Havoc DH have been almost soloing them
probably a lot less of a problem now with the higher iL
i only press BP as well
what r those numbers in bracket
age?
it would explain hpala
and mages 😄
we clear = blue parse
we wipe = 100 parse
Is it usual that robot wants me to go Mastery wep enchants? Have always been main stat, I assume my mastery is a bit low then compared to the rest
This is just regular pw 5m
And everyone knows if you can choose between a single target enchant and a pad enchant you choose the pad enchant
yeah but how much of an upgrade would it even be
Like 400
Ye, hence the "either is fine" bit before
So not end of the World just got suprised
I’ve had one mastery enchant and one main stat enchant since the start of the season and at no point has it really shown as a major change to switch either of them

But yeah generally the better gear you get (and the more tuning buffs you get) the more useful secondary stats are gonna be relative to primary stats
Its all minor differences either way
i would get a massive 0.8% with mastery enchants
Diff between 119 and 120k so mental gain online

why is this
We are still paying the price for zul funnel
Blizzard had a look at this and said, "Never again"
Then they made devourer
fixed
Auction house geared but top dps is where I think we should be as a class
So much yellow i like it
true
keep in mind nobody was allowed to touch the adds
so damage numbers are fake
Sounds so cool 
well it was like this
you had a lot of small adds
but only subtlety was allowed to damage it passively while funneling
everyone else was forced to pure st
due to funnel
I was only a heroic raider in bfa and was playing sin
So that's why this time around they decided to screw our cleave and force us into basically ST only LMAO
which makes the gap look even wirder than it actually was
people would have done more overall damage
if they would be allowed to pad on adds
but due to how the fight was designed
you would not be allowed to do that
mythic geared is actually an exreggeration
the gap between alt and raider was low
which was why you could bring your alt even if it wasn't perfectly geared
it was also the first tier
and very early in it
I hated ghuun
this does not take away from the fact that the priority damage output was ahead of other classes
but the time frame before the nerf
was not long
so "mythic geared" was not rly a thing
so its just "my main who did heroic with guild and got equipment"
vs.
!stats
"my alt who did normal with guild and potentially pugged heroic"
If both equal in ST but mastery >crit in aoe why would i want crit over mastery?
I just switch flasks for M+ and raid and thats fine
I play with mastery flask in m+ when my other gear is crit oriented works fine
:3
Dayum h4 was faster
That is what i was thinking about but you already aaid a mix of both for st.
I was thinking why not mastery>crit
I like puzzlebox so much more than guildon sadly i got the myth guildon
No one's forcing you to play guidon
rly? you like to chill around for 2s and get unstealthed? thats crazy 😄
We can trade
Pbox grew on me. It's a fun trinket. Flasking haste in m+ and solving puzzles. Output seems just as good as guidon, 99% parsed a key last night (just a 14, but still
You give me your myth gideon and you my pbox
Guidon delay just as annoying as casting box imo
problem with box is you often have the situation where you might wanna pop blades but your box aint ready, then next pull is a small one u got everything ready but on 3 mobs idk
To be fair opening from stealth hardly matters at all for sub
The channel will forever be cringe tho
with guidson u are just always ready
Standing still for 2s unable to move ain’t it
but i like box on first pulls with BL
but after that I struggel to find proper execution
can you port to housing and switch equip like you can do with talents? 😄
It’s not bad I tried a puzzle box and tfd setup today
Guidon easier to use pbox you need the route from your tank
it's more so a rough guideline for how to stat
800 haste?
Ya 800 haste and tfd
ok
Can probably play it with lower haste tbh
if they only would fix the delay from our talent so we could bind guidon to the rest 😄
sometimes iam still a bit too fast pressing it and then follow by dance and stuff
so i lose my extra second
i was doing that a lot before too
i started to just watch my guidon cd and when it goes from 1:30>1:29
i pop everything
it's sometimes tough when there's a lot of stuff going on, but it's mostly chill
Doing a backstab/shuriken storm and guidon and letting the gcd timer is a easy way to do it too
yeah that works too, only issue there is you run the risk of not having enough energy for sectec
What you mean unstealthed i pop it after shadowstrike
man the hoops we have to jump through using trinkets every single season lol
Ya it do be like that doing the most to get it to work 😂
bring back ashes
i mean we all find our way around, but why on earth we must do those shenanigans
just fix this shit 😄
I wonder what’s it’s gonna be like without 4 set next season
i'm very curious what's gonna happen next season
i have a nagging suspicion we're getting sectec charges
you can literally see it in the CDM which is funny
like how?
if you set an alert for sectec
it has an option for charges for some reason
you can see it in game, i'm not in game so i can't post a screenshot
but surely that's there for a reason
mhhh not too sure cause
the cdm in itself feels very static
and not very tailored to specs
but sure, we will know when we will know
thing is i don't think any other sub spell has that option on it
except stuff that has charges like dance
oh thats interesting
so it's weird
Ooh like simplified version of last with st for every sd
they might literally be implementing @vale pine 's idea
i wouldn't be surprised if that happened
it makes sense with how little dmg sectec is doing right now
Fuu is the secret rogue dev confirmed. dog pile him!

fuu wants sectec to have charges like shot in the dark talent
so it would work where we have baseline sectec on static cd
Ozzy osbourne mentioned ? ⁉️
and then when you go in dance you get a shots charge of sectec in addition
so it would create this way of being able to kind of maneuver that static sectec cd around where you want
Sectec is doing as much dmg as evis on my lura progress
yeah it's so sad
WHAT DID THEY DO TO MY BOY
remember when sectec was our top dmging ability
lol i just listened to this song 5 mins ago
i remember
HELL yeah
cant wait to hear it live in a few months, by Rob Halford tho
At least sub is one of the better specs on lura
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12141112/ on that topic this is a fun movie
actually made by the guys who made GOT
Shii this some advance tec sounds fun
pass then
it does! would make things much more interesting
LOL fair enough
You know what they should do aswell put flag into sb
im actively boycottin anything from those idiots
more power in blades would be good too yeah
havent also watched anything from GoT spinoffs evn tho ppl say they r good
I've been hurt once, wont go there again
i only watched a knight of the seven kingdoms
it was pretty good
surprisingly very comedic
Ya cloud gave us a taste of it have it ramp into big sec tec again
it's strange for sub to go from being such a powerhouse in burst to the opposite
Give us a raid/party buff.. 3% haste… make the people want us
i dominated lura hc last night
gotta even say i like the fight
shame i probably wont prog it mythic
Tbf sub still does almost zero damage outside dance, they just shifted more of the power of the spec from blades into Dance. So its still quite bursty
Wouldnt really say we are the opposite of burst when were like top 5 burst specs
that's true yeha
oh are we actually still?
that's good to know
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/rogue-needs-to-bring-a-real-raid-buff/2304579 good segway to say hit this with a like and comment if you can
Hi! I’m Prophet and I’m a 4 time 0.1% M+ title holder (retired now though) and CE raider. I’m also a die hard rogue and very active in the sub rogue channel of the rogue discord. I’m not going to create a long wishlist here because I believe 80% of the issues rogues are facing currently can be solved with 1 simple thing- a real raid buf...
Idk maybe like #7 or something, but definitely nowhere near the bottom
awesome
For ST that is, aoe is a bit different ofc since some specs randomly are allowed to not be softcapped
yeah you can really see that diff in 1st pull of AA
casually getting outdpsed by a UDK by 300k on that pull
Exactlyyyy… would change the quality of life on simply getting in a group
ye unh dk with guidon
cause activating box in thet pull is dodgy
it would be a huge fix for rogue in general yeah
frost is weird
like frosts highest high doesnt feel that high but u catch up on other packs cause fdk 45 sec cd is nice
and boss dmg is yuge
so u might be far behind on some first pack lust pull but u catch up till the end
unh 45 sec cd feels a bit meh
CLIMBING
i need 2 more keys for 8 vaults options. seeing if I can hit 2k in lfg.
i hit 900k on tree trash with the aug
silliness
what do u mean if
i got 14 resi with pugs 😄
on my dk
10s are struggle buss with people farming voids. i dont have a key
270 ilvl kinda sus
i'm about to farm bloody tokens just to get legs to cata
can't put on mythic shoulders due to
god that reminds me i still have champ legs on my 283 rogue
i wish i had half the luck with loot on my rogue as i had on dk
dk got both myth gaze and guidon without spending rolls
rogue cant catch a break
not even delve pants
only gettin those shit trinkets from delves
Ive Seen some frosts do more than these metahopping uhdks
if you needed a sign, there it is
Frost is very good, but it’s like playing outlaw in keys. Why am I doing more work for the same or at times less dps
hmm i dont think frost 90sec burst can beat army
Dw my other rogue still has 1/6 champ helm

dk got me helm discount for rogue. now just need a helm. 
the the invites start rolling in 
like fdk could outdps unhdk in 90sec burst only if the pack is super tightly packed
as soon as u start moving a bit and/or mobs get a bit more spread, unh is gonna dominate
cause breath and FS are a bit weird
frost is just way more fun than unholy 
audio/visual design and feel of the spec is just so much better..
frost is a blast for sure.
aye, i also alway preferred frost as soon as its remotely viable
the army is finally finished
(dh is 287 but not updated)
just love those big numbers poping on the screen
unh even when it does big dps u dont see it on the screen
I hecking love looking at damage breakdown and seeing shadowbolt from magus being top dam

have u seen what happens on nexus point for unholy dk aswell 
one of the pets can just aoe stun or smthing when last boss goes into intermission and just nukes the group
now that is gaming
turn off auto-cast on all of them, then make macros
how many hands to u have xd
there's plenty of keyboard space for them without needing extra
id rather risk wiping here and there
So just turn leap off?
its rather easy
yeah im just gonna stick to frost and have the only group wiping be when I send the dragon without thinking and pull 10 packs from narnia 
should have it be like Pack Leader chimera thing
but ye just have macros like this for their stuns/leaps and its never an issue
but does it have any other purpose than avoiding NPX last boss premature interrupt
it lets you kick/stun
can add targeting parameters if you want
gives extra cc to their already funny kit
Is potion of recklessness better than life's potential depending on pull size?
Lights*
Just better overall? Even at like 17 or 18s?
I should be getting mastery from it once I recraft my gear to have less crit
for sub rogur potrion of reckless simed better for aoe 10 targets by 3%
mastery is better in aoe yes
Is it pretty common for people to use recklessness on trash and then lights potential on bosses?
can technically use it depending on where you use potions
but in one target sim light potential simm better by 1 %
true that might be the play depending when my pot come off cd in the dungeon
Because I don't want to run endless simulations, are our stat weights pretty much the same for AOE and single Target?
its like this
Assuming you have the 700 or more haste
you want a more balances stat distribution on single target
I just use it on both actually in m+ since most fights will have soem kinda cleave anyway
but in mythic+ you rly go mastery over the other options
its not an exact science, as there are many combinations of stats which sim close
But I guess since very few fights are pure single Target, most mythic plus setups will probably do fine in raid?
but as you see from the images, mastery gets noticably more valuable in multi target heavy situations like mythic+
ye like in m plus my sim has my haste low like 14% and master like 71%
think the single target stat distribution is good for most raid figths, as you still have more priority/single target than aoe
and mastery is ahead of other stats
compared to that
crit like 27
I have some ring options to swap around and you can min max by using different flasks
deathstalker
is noticably more haste heavy
as you go to 1100 haste
doing so takes mor aways from crit/mastery
is14% haste too low for m plus?
Currently without buffs my crit is like 900 something and mastery is 752. I was going to swap around the crafted pieces to have mastery instead of crit.
Could I just find simulating hard because of the whole haste issue.
you typically would want the 700 haste
I just find*
Unless there is a way to hard code raidbots to not mess with going under 700 haste.
750 mastery seems low even for raids but idk - I am at cap and I love it xD
i wonder why my sim has my haste so low but master like 71%
!bugs
Rogue Bug tracker: Spreadsheet
That's what I'm saying, it's quite low. I was going to swap over all the crit on my pieces to mastery.
haste basically gives you more dance time and secret cdr
but going all in on mastery and potentially using puzzle box, gives a higher immidiate burst
which is why some chinese prefere doing that
Fuu, is there a way to lock a secondary stat in raidbots (like haste to 700) so I can then run AOE and single Target setups without worrying about it dipping beneath or messing with other other variables
I really do love frost but unholy grew on me a bit and frost is just so so bad in comparison in keys
It’s good fun in raid though
there is no way sadly
Why is it that people use shurken with shadowdance dont we apply the debuff with shadowstrike already ?
they do if they play deathstalker
the reaosn is, they want to avoid input/stance lag to be sure to hit all gcd's in shadow dance
Easy way sim ur gear with all rings u have + haste/mastery gems
When Result is finish Switch out the haste mastery ring for one with more haste to reach 680+
raidbots having something like a subset sum function would have insane iteration counts lol
which is done by macroing storm + dance
I’m on 699 by doing that with Both weapon oils
thats fine
been gone for a couple weeks, what are the chances premed is fixed lol
one more thing sorry if i am being bothersome can someone tell me why every single one of his sd st's are so much higher than mine ?
the key is to just do weekly keys 
They have not reworked premed without dropping a patch no
fantastic...
We both have same casts of evisicrate same crit % just his are dealing 115k avg whist mine are doing 47k
How do you simulate for single target versus AOE then if it's always trying to lower your haste? Do you just take its suggestions and then ensure the haste is at that 700 benchmark?
Sub Sims for m+ are rly weird since last Patch for aoe
Whenever I let default (somehow crit) Flask sim it’s worse then when I pick manually all 3 and it shows me to pick mastery as Best
I only let it make swaps that dont lower my haste
Not sure what you mean by always trying to lower your haste? Its just ending up at ~650 instead of 700
Which is playable, but if you prefer a bit more leeway you can swap something out for that last bit of haste or sim without oils like recommended here #subtlety-faq message

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).
ive been using numbing poison for mythics this is still correct right ?
yep that's valid
thats perfect
this should count for just 10 crest upgrade for 6/6 myth right?
a few caveats with that, but sure
Is the crest cost based on your highest trinket, or lowest?
i do have my 2nd trinket at 298
if thats the caveat you meant :D
lowest
i think u need to have 2 trinkets on alt 289 or above and 285 achievement for upgrade to only cost 10 crests
otherwise it will be 20
what is stance lag?
well basically
if you use shadow dance, the game takes a moment to realize that you changed stance
I have to farm 25 voidcores can i get that in one sitting? I am on holidays and did not want to play (did not sync my addons and will have to use trackpad)
on laptop
so e.g. if you use dance + strike on a macro
it is a game issue then, fuck blizaard
I see that is why some macros i cant put 2 skills together
you need to use the button two times
"one sitting" varies as a time measure significantly from person to person 😄
because the server will not cast strike if you use the macro
and the 2nd press, and with it the strike cast
will be delayed
so you lose 0.1 sec (or higher if your ping is higher)
by using dance + strike
do we play cloud cover in m plus or no scruples?
which is, in part, why we use dance + storm as macro on deathstalker
nope, we go no scruples
The cloud vanished just as quickly as it appeared
so no ore cloud cover?
nope
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/uYa6qFEsjLwYZNRVVqqQKF with nexus rings in M+ .https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/mdFEL8oYTocERJCAAoFBNQ with bifurification band instead of occlusion of void . i want to run nexus rings bc i know i dont play perfect and at least the nexus rings are free damage regaurdless of how i perform @vale pine thoughts ?
they made it too good then nerfed it noticable
nexus set is good, can def. play
thank you , you are the best!!!
also is it worth farming cosmos neck: eternal voidsong chain, i was planning on rolling for it on tuesday
hero btw
i wouldnt go that far, it was ok, good
why warning signs over planned execution in m+?
too good in comparison what we usually get, which is nothing 😄
!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 or
Icy Veins.
it took a quite noticable buff to now end up evenly without the talent
so would argue it was a lot better than the alternative
anyone good with plater and can tell me how to make friendly names bigger? i tried using slider on "Player Name Text" but they dont get bigger at all
As DS is there anything I need to play around? Or something I have to think about more than macro ss to dance
turn the module off and reload, then turn it back on and reload and it should work
Should I make sure to get as many Darkest night evises as possible in dance or ?
what was the addon for tricks lads?

Hey guys, do you still need to activate Guidon before CD so that the server tick update with our haste ? Asking because i saw some people use it at pretty much the same time
yes, you still need to use guidon one sec before dancce
!sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
What DS need to be useful in m+?
bigger number
i mean trickster is just too good
Idk why anyone would want to play DS its just boring
it's something different
Do I not plan anything around the darkenst night evi?
You always want apex on darkest night
Is the same talent build for every boss in the raid ?
Nah, u have some more ss oriented builds for dragons etc
lemme try that out in a second
turn the module off - reload -> then switch size -> reload - turn it back on and reload and it should work
?
guys, we did skip (palladins and allerie), and now we wanna clear rest but first boss not spawning, any idea?
nope names dont get biggerr
usually doing the raid skip despawns the previous bosses
I already think Trickster is boring.
thats usually not case
i think it was the case in manaforge omega if i remember right? i vaguely remember skipping to nexus king, and then not being able to go back and do fractillus/soul hunters
play a different spec
will change gameplay much more than playing DS
nah
anyone else can figure out how to make player friendly names bigger on plater
That's every spec in midnight
is just "let's w8 passives and press that button"
I could be wrong, but from what I’ve seen so far in Midnight, that’s how it feels.
these void cores, what would i be better off upgrading here ?
crafteed and put it in your mh
sweet is 285 max for crafted ? or do i need to recraft higher then use voidcore ?
thanks for the advice
there is also no limit on cores
you will get more in there future for all the weapons/trinkets u could ever want to upgrade
1 per 10+ key guaranteed, 1 per heroic or higher boss guaranteed
1 per bountfiful delve chest at 11
Yuh
the 900 haste is so that we can have 2 st's in one shadowblade?

red rogue gaming
i thought it was 720 to get x2 St in SB now
I can get it in with 690 but its very tight im holding a gcd for it to be just right
!stats
Without guidon you need like 800+ yes
Because you need to hit sectech with ~1.5 left of blades
ah ok, cheers good to know
this is enough with myth guidon
wthelly gaming
😄
plater friendly size doesnt change even after reopening cliennt
aren't you limited still with what you can change for friendly names
my rogue sims almost the same while 7 ilvls up.

seems accurate
im not sure about that this seems rly small no? i saw biggerr on other streams
that looks normal to me in raid
Can the big adds at the end of seat see stealth?
!stats
its time.
#TeamRedRogue
Ye
ók ty for ur help
i dont think there's any controller to enlarge it in raid, but maybe check accessibility options in game
im in the p1 factory
is that like the willy wonka chocolate factory?
anyone got a sheet to see how much dp[s each raid buff gives?
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
if you are ~15 seconds before blade and sec tech comes off cd do you send and just delay blades slightly or hold for blades? I know you for sure hold at 10 seconds but was unsure about before that
Usually you hold. Anything less than 20/19 seconds you hold. But if there is dmg amp or something like this send SecTec
I would think though if you know you won't have another shadow blades after that one due to fight ending, you could just send it and delay blades a little bit no?
that's almost a full sectech cd worth of waiting
I honestly would send sec tech and delay blades a bit in his scenario
are there any sims showing how much aug helps and skyfury helps for sub?
lmao thanks
you get 3% crit from prescience and random vers procs
plus a variable amount of main stat so good luck simming that
i thought it gave mastery
nope its crit
If they coach you with that trinket 😄
unless you're talking about skyfury then that is mastery, but aug gives crit with pres
throwing out temp buffs like parade candy
do we sim d slice
kicker xd
is puzzlebox simming a lot higher than pinion in dslice for everyone else too? (both myth track)
I hate the box so much but its like ~>1% gain
box is so good
dslice leaves a lot to be desired in current version of sub rogue gearing
We trained people to trust a clanker. Now the clanker isn’t as trustworthy.
im just tryna figure out what more ppl use for M+ sim, slice or patch 5 targ
who tf sims 5 target
its quite close tbh
not that far off
when it gives haste a negative -14 value idk about that
it's also not needed. get the haste break point, put on ilvl with master>crit>>>>vers gear
kind of impossible to sim m+ accurately when every tank pulls diff

Have you looked at any of the resources in here?
how do we sim for pug tank that pulls 2-3 mobs
afks for 2 business days
then pulls another 2
because thats the average pug tank
or my favorite
the tank that waits till 2-3 mobs are sub 5%
then drags them to another 2 mobs

🦮 
because they get flamed incessantly if they die and brick the run lol
yeah
you can time a 16 easy with baby pulls
from failing kicks
you're at the mercy of your dps/heals being awake
17+ it gets rly hard
its just extremely annoying for subtlety to get baby pulls
you essentially play to your weakness the entire key
which just does not feel good
if you're not making your healer's cortisol levels spike
you arent pulling big enough
Our Dk that is swapping to warrior ran a 12 pit. We took along a 270 MW main. I told him I have so much faith in your healing I’m taking my defensives off my bars and using the spell book.
I don’t think they ever healed a key with a tank mitigating properly and the dps not standing in shit. We actually made their day with a +3
How bad are we on Paladins ? 
literal worst
A wooden bench does more dmg
i mean isnt prot warrior literally mitigating
so swapping to sin would be better ?
in your passive rotation
ooo actually ele is below us now lol
removing rogue from raid would be better
like genuinely, if you arent putting your mitigation up as prot warr
you are overcapping rage
so hard
I am a valuable member of the raid group so I will not get removed 
we ended up dead last before the last patch
