Got them from 0 key level to 10s done well if they understand the strats, if not, we brick tf out of the key and say nothing
A tank did that in a 10. A 10 and he was pulling each pack separately. He has 270ilvl
I started ninja pulling non stop and saying it was the lock pet
Bro I was doing 10s day 1 of the higher key release day

I did a SEAT 12 on the first day
Timed it
I mean I get it if they're new though but like holy
I had a tank leave cause I kept pulling more
Then nobody wanted to do keys with me for a few weeks lol
It was a 10 key 2 weeks ago
The warlock was nice tho
Honestly very easy
Ilvl is so high that even if you pull pack by pack they die so fast
It's just that instead of +3 you get a +1 on the key
yeah probably this
Feel like if you don’t throw 10 deaths u can time shit easy even going slow
The ol pet gaslight supreme🥷
I did a WS 10 last week, took a mage and DH with 2k rio
They didn't know any mechanics
They got hit by every single fear on third boss
Saw the heal run after them to try to stack and they kept running away
In the end he gave up and came melee
2k rio and no knowledge of a dungeon
Many such cases, sadly. Even on 3k even.
In TWW 2k rio was decent. Midnight 3k rio and you can see things that'd give you nightmares
Heck even 3.5k
My fav was the 3.6kferal saying he couldn't dispel curses, only poisons
🌝
we timed a 16 skyreach yesterday and I got blamed for 1 death at first boss from the druid healer and when he died at the wind platform even though hes a fkn cat I lol'd at him and then he stopped healing me at last boss kek
Top 1% is resi 19 right ?
!log
I think what you're doing wrong is that you're using puzzlebox 
with all the upgrades now how was the "rule about 700 haste with trinket again? do i need to have 700 flat or is it fine to count 32haste from oils so i just need 668 flat?
Its not a hard cap
Its just a number that makes it achievable for us to get the extra gcds inside dance
The less you have the harder it is, the more the easier
So yes 668 with oils will do the trick too, but if you notice youre missing a gcd at the end then you might want to consider slightly moreh aste
i see
cause sims ofc go lower haste, as it is a robot, so its quite tricky to find my optimal gear, as i have a few rings etc
yep
for example
Is there a max amount of crit i need
in this sim it says take 1000 mastery and only 700 crit and still use mastery flask btw
no
just equal crit and mastery ish
Crit and mast are roughly equal with mastery being better for aoe and crit for st
and i could change the ring with a crit heavy one, ending up below 800 mastery and 800 crit
!stats
You can sim for crit vs mastery if you want
Finished gearing perfectly balanced?
i would rather keep it simple though
3% vers too much (i have that vers as well)
dont make a masters degree out of it 😄
im at 796 haste and it feels so much better then having 700 haste
then get 700 haste before guidon
and acquire crit/mastery
I actually took it, i dont mind it for m+
It simmed similar to other stats
my crit is 546 and my mastery is 1090
yeah same. vers my beloved
it will feel nicer, but if you have guidon then youre wasting dps
i dont run guidion i run gaze and pbox
Then thats fine
!macros
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.
if you have pbox then you want 800
796 is fine though
but definitely dont go 795
then this sims 1k below the other
but it has the 700 haste
900 crit, 800 mastery
yeah thats what im saying but do i need more crit cause i have like 500 more mastery then crit
if youre doing m+
then you kinda want more mastery than crit anyway
Haste is a pretty useless stat once you can get the desired gcds inside dance
That's why its a hard falloff in sims for a bot
yeah copy i seem to be doing good dps
!talents
hahah some times i get flustered too many buttons to press lol
anyone able to share some Raid ST talent build 😄
!guide
Can i ask a non subtlety macro question in here
yo guys, dagger can be recrafted after its been upgraded to 295, right?
yep did it yesterday
no idea haven't tried but probably
no additional costs or other things?
nope was just the normal recraft costs
I assume ur sending it out max rank, idk what happens if you like, drop its quality level
!haste
Secret Techniques cooldown gets reduced by all haste sources, while Shadow Dances duration only gets increased by Haste Rating from gear or consumables. When using an on-use haste trinket, make sure to use it a bit before Shadow Dance to get the extended duration.
The recommended ~700 haste gives you two additional globals in Shadow Dance and Guidon will grant one extra on top of that.
aye, cool, tnx
For Belo’ren mythic egg phase I sim higher with puzzlebox than guidon, but why everybody is using guidon on this fight ?
I’m not a fan of puzzlebox but it’s just much more higher in sim
I also generally sim better with box than guidon, at equivalent ilvl, whatever the duration of the fight
like ~0.3% better
and i'm almost full stuff (just need to change a hero ring into the mythic one)
Can we macro sec tech info dance/blades?
Like
/cast blades
/Cast dance
/Cast sec tec
i use this
hey, does our haste breakpoint get lower with 298 guidon?
not sure if its ok though
I belive our haste breakpoint is unrelated to guidon
The 700~ haste is 7.5 sec per dance so you get 7 globals in
With guidon og goes to 8.9
So you would need a lot more haste to make guidon give you an extra global
but more haste from guidon we get longer shadow dance and shorter sectec cd no?
Make sure to sim guidon with 700 haste and puzzlebox with 800 haste, otherwise the results will not match our haste requirement
haste does not change
But then you start hitting DR on haste
What is the reason for this?
you're not sending blades immediately on pull on beloren usually
which means you can't use box on pull
puzzlebox is probably the better prog trinket for beloren, but the top parses will be reclears where they probably pad on adds with 3rd cds
You also dont want to stand afk during egg burn
Yup, and I don’t use it on pull
Idc about logs, I just want to maximize my dmg during egg phase
you can just cast it right before the dive
then gate in
Yeah i thought he was also using on pull
Which then he would need to afk no?
then its prob puzzle box, and dont use at 20s
prob yeah
you can precast puzzlebox
yeah you can use puzzlebox
it's fine
Yeah that’s what I figured
How low do you guys get belo during first egg?
all the dmg in non egg phases is kinda "pointless"
Lowkey add damage in p2 is more important than egg at this point
except dmg on adds is actually important
And casting it before gate I don’t like, I prefer to gate vanish shadowstrike and then pbox
My guild just hit it and have had an evening of prog, so far our best is 36% i think
I played full cleave talents as assa yesterday on it 
pAdDiNg
Egg was 29% after first burn anyways 
We haven’t seen a full p2 yet but that’s what I fear
Only ele shaman beat me on egg dam anyways 
we pushing beloran at 1:30 now
lol nice
fight is basically over when you get through p2, second egg burn is guaranteed kill unless some tragic shit happened
we killed it the first time we made it through p2, and had like 20s left on 2nd burn or somethin
we killed it today finally, we got through P2 for the first time then killed it seeing 2nd egg phase for the first time
But it felt like the hardest part of the fight was p2 adds cause its a bit hecitc and they werent cleaved as well as in p1
it's super free
p2 ads are defo the hardest bit
yeah we were having that issue too
Do you guys have sec tec macroed into your blade/dance macro?
Thanks for the feebacks I’ll warn my clan
yep
Alright ill start doing that then
#showtooltip Shadow Blades
/cast Shadow Dance
/cast Shadow Blades
/cast Secret Technique
beloren is not really a dps fight anymore
For the belo fight I have like three macro for dance/sec tec
it's a mechanics check
Which was a dumb way to nerf it imo but it is what it is
beloren is just about how good can you deal with the balls
its bugged so much
agreed it was a bit weird
annoying
yeah there was something cool about the dps check being a very real thing
now you're just running down the boss face first with 0 thought into what you're doing cds wise
Did feel better than killing crown tho cause we killed that 2nd pull after reset last week 
Just fell over..
yeah i feel like they overnerfed crown too a bit
but my guild was still struggling to rekill it
so it's prob good nerfs
easier is generally better
i dont mind easier, its just really unsatisfying when dps optimization is completely thrown out the window
Yeah im just sad that p2/p3 are the fun parts of crown and it just is weirdly anti-climactic now
it was really cool looking into beloren and seeing how to optimize egg dmg
I wanted the feeling of killing it as the platform was closing in..
now it's just unga bunga
Crown was a struggle for us because we kept missing the adds with obelisks
Soon tho.. 1 phase time
I thought something was bugged on our kill becuase the boss just disappeared, turns out we accidentally killed it
haha yeah possibly
was extremely unsatisfying
lmao
Because people still (100 pulls in) cant bait the obelisk positioning
But personally i felt it was a cool fight
they royally fucked it for melee
I guess that may just be because of the level ny guild is at
they should have nerfed the fight to make it better for melee
story of this entire tier
except maybe lura
Only annoying part is droplets in p1 i feel like the rest of the mechanics are cool
Droplets as in the floor shit they drop after dying
yeah they should have nerfed the puddle debuff so it was much more likely to go on the adds
if not not able to go on melee
So is there much difference between guidon and feather?
guidon is infinitely better
Most difference is that guidon is useable every time blades is ready, feather is not since its 2min
ah that is fair, no prob, thanks lol
So feather is either on pull and at 3 min with 3rd blades
Or on pull and at 2 min with 2nd bladed
I don't do much of any raiding, only reason why I asked, I currently have puzzle and feather lol
use puzzle
In that case i would use puzzle on pull and on 3
Yeah that's what I have been doing
Btw do you guys save pot on salhadar for damage amp or just on pull with lust
I see 2 bis list, one has nxp rings and the other doesnt. Is the nxp ring set bonus decent?
just rip it on pull, you will very likely not get a 2nd use if you don't
it's roughly +0.5% of free dmg
so if you can accomodate that set with your other gear stats wise
it's good
Great thanks!
Sorry, one last question. Mythic Beloren is a long way off for my guild, should I go for the dagger off Vor or dagger from Skyreach for my mythic dagger until then?
Yes
damn
so 30% chance for Gaze xD
well 33% + w/e is the chance to drop and me highroll it
Skyreach is only 1 core to roll for though
and u cant get the same item with roll
And the pool is similar
Thanks! I lost the Vor dagger tonight to a hunter so fingers crossed next week
i know, i only rolled once so far, last week and got that other trinket
so 3 items left in the pool, hence 33%
so u will get belt next dont worry
😄
i mean i have 285 gaze so its not gonna be some super huge upgrade anyway
its like ~700 dps prolly
tho im still not fully attuned to these new numbers
my brain still operates in millions
700 of anything is alot even chopsticks
its fine
u are not gonna get it
now u r just increasing my chances 😄
i think aug is pretty noticeable
Yes I think we dont scale Good with Aug
aug gives main stat, we scale fine with main stat lol
i m doing pretty much the same dmg its more than usuall but not huge
you are looking for lura/alleria neck piece ? 
Same Max 20-30 k more dps on 18-19 keys
All keys with Aug was Not intime 🥲
i ve done 204k overall in MT 19 without aug with aug on 18 it was 212
we had 3 min extra on the 19 but in 18 we were so behind
i dont know how aug works maybe its their gamplay problem
you can see augs effect in pure single target pretty easily
!ss
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Ok I Think class phys. comp Its better
Of course
yeah phys comp is better for us, im just saying we scale fine with aug
But that's not "sub is bad with Aug"
Ok ok
if i dont gain as much as warlock with Aug its bad 😄
There's no difference in "how much classes gain" from aug
everyone gets the same amount of main stat lol
yea but the stat scale is diffrent from each other
No
in most logs im looking at, i do around 30% more damage while i have an aug in my group
which is very sizeable
while we're both in cds i should say
on my xp everytime with aug i felt less pressure on mechanics but more pressure on timer
also depends on if the aug is actually playing well or not
Aug is just another dps spec
and its hard to know if he plays good or not
maybe its for me only
but i cant understand it
congratulations
how much single target do we gain from funnel? i know its nothing gamechanging but it definitely feels nice to be able to shuriken storm for full combo points
Hahaha ty teacher
Would be a better comp for sub monk shaman devourer rogue + druid? Bcs of phys buff from monk and magic from dev?
youd prefer warrior buff over dh or monk buff
does anyone here have time to check my sim out, idk why im simming so low, can also barely get any upgrades from droptimizer (mythic head ofc)
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/iDdES7dBz6jyLHAetAAdPh
All my logic is gone 
that sim number seems decently reasonable, what were you expecting? also you might be able to get a bit more dps by using mastery flask on sim over crit
Skill issue
gained 50 😭
what we simming highest anyway
130k as trickster
how
i did a top gear with the alleria neck, recrafts and rings and i gained like 500
idk how its possible to reach 130k
the 130k sim has vantus on
the 130k sim also has the prepull supercharger combo points added in i beileve
if you took your sim, changed yourself to panda, added in vantus and supercharged combo points, you'd be quite a bit closer to the 130k number
yeah okay i had no idea about that stuff
me too today huge
Ayy lets goo
got a shit parse
but i don't give a fuck lol
i'm just happy it's dead
AND happy i don't need to be running around cloaking orbs anymore
Bruh you dont wanna see my alleria one
I died to p3 explosion
But im pretty happy we got em killed
tbf to play for the fight you get a shit one
haha that's fair
i feel like it's only gonna get worse with more gear until you don't care about how fast you phase to egg
managed to snag an 80 on alleria, i'm now 1 of 2 people on my raid team who have parsed a purple on that fight from 3 kills
egg damage is all that matters
yeah parsing beloren kinda a huge meme
lura stinks
I look like i got a alleria boost
we havent got passed kicks yet
lol nah alleria is also kind of a meme parsing boss
wtf
with proper prep, you should wipe once or twice to kicks before everyone has it down consistently
I thought we would but not that fast hahahah
o LOL
we have had like 4 pulls HAHAHA
we didn't even go for lura after killing belo, just went to rekill crown and then do a group sesh setting up addons
My first ce is coming lads
u already got 2
oh huge
chim and crown
xddd
Hahaha
this will be my first CE that isnt on rogue
tragic
Its okay im the yellow in here
i have never played anything but rogue for my guild
One off resil 20 after my work in keys today
ive been rogue prison since s4 bfa
WTF IS THIS GOOD NEWS DAY TODAY
EVERYBODY IS KILLING BELO
EVERYBODY IS KILLING KEYS
i timed nothing today gg
Its a good day for the sub discord 🤣
unfortunately that just becomes the norm once you're high enough in IO
Reldo at least u have a team
and then the adrenaline and dopmine you get from finally timing a key
goes off the charts
or i should say getting IO
TRUE
like half my io keys rn are timed without my team though lmao
double tragic
i miss having a team, it was so chill pushing keys
never sitting in lfg
never any confusion about route
Since i started doing some keys i somehow made a team so i can play rogue hahaha
Even when I’m with my title friends we don’t really have a subtlety comp and we don’t have a shaman at all
thats how pugging goes
Ya 100%
u jam enough pug keys and eventually start getting people who consistently sign up
then u bnet them and move on
thats how i made my team aside from fj and zuzap
i just push with guildies
i actually very rarely add people to my bnet, i let them add me
thats what happened to me
but i know my guild has a disproportionate amount of high m+ players
i got alot of bnets
so then whenever someone on my bnet doesn't take me to a key
it's even more confusing
i have a bunch of people in this channel on my bnet
can i have u on bnet
yea
holy shit that was so fast
i would of dm'd it to me
yours got nothing on mine
i said i wasnt playin rogue
are you guys still private logging
yees
no he's just 0/9m still :/
are u on rogue stealthi
fwiw parses prove nothing
yes
BASED
im the only one mentally ill enough to play it in my guild
that seems to be the norm with rogues
u play dh sometimes yea
my split alt is DH
can't wait till they give us a raid buff and some other cool stuff
i dont actively play it
and then we got a buttload of fotm hoppers
go veng and tank my keys
how bout no
I tried
doe we hold box always for shadow blades ? bothers me that the cd isnt sync like guidon ^^
box? yes you use every other shadow blades like its a 3m cooldown
Is there a link for known bugs?

For those short on myth crests, like myself.. With the cap gone, am I assuming correctly that farming ritual sites and converting the hero crests is faster than doing +12s?
Or reliably close at least
depends how fast are you
skyreach can be like 14 mins or so
but you also need to find a group etc

some blasters over here
Any hopes of our poisons doing some extra dam on rotmire to bring at least something in raid?👀
you can have hope it just wont be much
What
And fire mage would just instant kill it with fire ?
this seems like a extreme overcook, you want bonus dmg to the guy cause he's a plant or whats the logic here?
if anything, poisons should do less damage to plants 
I posted this earlier but didn't get a clear answer so trying again.
I was farming pit legs and in the process got the pit neck. I ran a couple of sims and it says ST the pit neck is better but the crafted one with haste mastery is better for multiple targets, whiles the hero track pvp neck is better for dungeon slice...
What should I do? Commit to the pit neck and maybe change flask from crit to mastery (sim tells me to drink crit rn) or just go crafted neck since there's not a whole lot of ST fights?
Can post Sims again if necessary
I dont understand the question
Same as always. Get 700/800 haste. Favor mastery for m+
What do you mean "commit"? You already have the neck?
You already have the answer laid out for you, the crit one for more ST and the mastery one for more aoe
yes, but I don't have the crafted one and was wondering if I could get away without crafting it xD
but I guess I could stop being lazy and get both LOL
good point, didn't think about that, ty
oh if i craft both engineer boots and bracers with haste i can get 1100
maybe i'll try to get them done for my raid tomorrow
If you use the pit neck you can get mastery from somewhere else
instead of making them with mastery
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/6WKqPTwdc2L4BVQz?fight=25&type=damage-done
would anyone mind helping me out with a log review on Mythic Paladins? im doing pretty shit currently and would love anotehr set of eyes
Use !log please
Excuse my ignorance, for mythic dragons is it better to just shadow strike instead of storm during dance windows ( except when adds spawn ) ?
storm if more than 3
Is it not 3 or more?
You still shadowstrike at 3 targets in dance
WElp
Just got a 95 on Mythic vanguards using storm when 3 targets
guess i could've got higher
sadly cannot get M alleria neck until l'ura is dead kekw
📈
y'all breaking 290... i'll be happy when i cap at 288 when i finally get my 2nd ring

Cannot switch my neckless i will lose my haste breakpoint
it's only minor stat changes now tbh
just craft one for the moment ngl
or i dont remember how many haste give the saladar one
I can swap my neck and then use non-tier legs to keep haste
unless you got guaranteed ring from roll
78 haste from neck
There is no heavy haste neck other then alleria one right ?
If I don't have access to myth Beloren which mainhand should I use instead? the one from sr??
that or pit
crafted wouldn't be better, i have heroic Omission, just fishing for the mythic one
alleria/lura neck are low haste so can just swap my legs to higher haste and not lose anything

ohh if you gonna get the mythic one its fine ig
had h omission too
literally any myth track dagger
so close to being done with crests
yeah i crafted 285 pants until i can go roll in the pit 😄
i think my next 3 weeks are just going to be taking sockets
same
yeah full socket gear looks 
they're annoyingly good this season
not sure if my raid group is going to bother with doing the 12.0.7 raid on myth
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
we'll probably do it once on hc/myth
it's free 298 gear
i'm the raid leader, and we're a 10 person raiding group 😄
so you don't raid mythic anyway then
we do not.
makes more sense now then that you won't be doing it on mythic haha
interest is already waning hard for us
but will wait and see what people think come august
this is the most interested most people have been in a hot minute for us 
we love raiding 
Most of my group is just happy to hit AOTC and then go smash keys
we're just starting myth dragons tonight
we are doing 2 runs 
we only raid 3 hours a week
different strokes for different guilds
we do 8 hours (2 days)
and that already feels like a bit much 😄
we did 8/9 and 5/9 in a night last week
and mostly because we spent 1.5hrs on paladins on the alts only raid
mostly a dad guild
our average age is like 30
we're mostly mid-late 30's
yeah i think the average age of my raid group is mid 40s
couple of late 20's and a younger guy
When it comes down to it, it's mostly about the effort that people put in irregardless of age
i'm an old man lol
I'm half way to 40
which dungeons should we use wound poison
not necessarily age but time commitment
can use it if you pull berserkers in the first part of caverns, else there is no need
if no one else has heal reduction in their kit
MT
can use it too
on the big ones that deal AoE while healing themselves
otherwise you can just ignore it
What consumable creates buff Sharpened VII? Is it Refulgent whetstone?
Adamantite sharpening stone
Its tbc no? U can use it?
Yes
wonder when they're gonna fix that
was just gonna say, surprised that hasn't been fixed yet
considering they mdi ban people for less
Wow my logs gonna be blue again.
lol probably waiting for next season to see if its still better
or they genuinely don't care
if it gave significantly more dps blizz would prob know about it and fix it by now
ye
Claude hasn't approved it for a fix yet
!stats
speaking of that if anyone can give this a like/comment to get it more traction would be huge https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/rogue-needs-to-bring-a-real-raid-buff/2304579
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...
4 times 0,1% and CE Raider sorry graham i love you but your not experienced enough for things like that 
hahaa trueeee
you're right i should have written 3 time HoF raider too
damn
Sounds better but even that would not be enough
i am a smol lil rogue begging for scraps from the master
Give us crit buff back
Anyone have a good EnhancedQoL profile for rogue?
nah we're 'good enough' without a raid buff to warrant getting one
would be pleasantly surprised, but blizz's probably already forgotten rogue was sat for 3 of the last 4 bosses
am I missing something here? there was a rogue on dimensius and a rogue on l'ura for the world first kill no?
I use it for the bars
as in, energy and combo points
it's really easy to setup yourself though
Don’t mind the rogue coming in here and stating they should have brought another dk over the rogue.
Dimensius was a lifetime ago. 
he still counts as one of the 4 last bosses though!
did it get nerf after the 2 weeks ? 
or people figured out how to play their new specs
timings changed which meant 1.5m wasn't as good
TIL swapping from human to panda was 800 dps for me lol
at the start you could send cd's on pull, at the end of p1, on first platform, on second platform and then on the damage amp
but damage kept increasing so you had to start holding cooldowns and skip uses

my last kills I think I just danced once or maybe twice on the second platform and just sat on blades for a minute
very fun
ye but dk is also a 1.5m
grip good
atrophic mid
wdym, they rioted because grip is not a real raid buff
sub was still insane on that fight when I killed it
they also don’t have any m+ utility
i think watching even wr500 guilds they were still holding for timings
Someone living in the past.
certainly wasnt only the first 2 weeks
apart from being able to tank mechanics just by using their face
also very bad mobility. 
How much should I really hold finishers until 5+ shadow tech stacks in m+? I assume no on trash, but maybe ST bosses?
couldn't imagine only having 2 charges of a 10 second 100% movement speed increase that makes me immune to knockback 😄
you don't?
dont worry guys we were very good in mother shahraz!
idk where you got that from
totally not living in the past
you play around how many stacks you have at the time under very specific conditions
but not waiting
and hey even on kael thas they needed someone to take the mc off!

you're living in the future, ssc has only just been released!
seems so
Did you know laura on p4 has melee range and that you just can't hit wherever? Well I didn't
had a tragic first kill
yes
Sorry referring to this portion of rotation
Try to not finish a few seconds before you're gonna enter Shadow Dance to save up some extra Shadow Techniques stacks.
i noticed our first time getting there that my spells were not castable!
a few seconds is like 3s
so just don't spend before you dance
that's all
you're not holding for a specific amount of stacks
just dance when you should
is there a general guideline re: pots? my ST sim wants reckless abandon but M+ sim wants recklessness... ive just been use light's potential
#subtlety-faq has a pot part
ok thx
I would not use reckless abandon
Sad part is I didn't I think in our movement we went too into the back of the room and was tiptoeing the melee range the whole time 
At least it died but fuck
Was on track for a banger parse
Ye reckless abandon is not the play, even though it sims higher, because the sim doesnt take into account the silence pools it spawns 
And at this point if you have some decent gear its fine (ie within margin) to use recklessness even on ST, as long as you dont get haste from it
soft inting runs 
this tier
and exile said he should have been sat for another unholy dk
so realistically 4/4
oh you mean the final 4 bosses in this tier
that was not how I read that at all, sorry
in on chim and vorasius and then sat until beloren (resat because "sub didnt have enough burst") then in on lura (should have played another dk instead)
yeah I mean rogue was just not in a good spot at the start of this tier
its good damage now, but that doesn't address the core issue
being the raid buff situation
wdym atrophic poison is a fantastic raid buff /s
worked on every fight this tier
they should bring back atrophic poison stacking
and make it additive instead of multiplicative this time!
You can always put your thoughts in this forum post that blizzard will completely ignore definitely is monitoring
for both raid and m+, dps-increasing buff > atro
we’re a dps spec. idgaf about dmg reduction as raid utility (nor does anyone else)
exactly
i want my presence to help everybody master their class better... and maybe encourage other melee to hit more often... perhaps call it Sky Flurry.
to go from having a raid buff that was crit to a damage reduction is just weird
as a former feral main, when they too lotp away it felt so bad, why is there no crit chance buff anymore
idk its odd
no crit or haste raid buff
meanwhile sham gets mastery and auto attack proc
Rogue used to give crit as a raid buff, didn't we?
yes
Yeah in like wod lol
SWIFTBLADE'S CUNNING
my non meme suggestion for raid buffs would be to just have extra availability of all existing damage buffs (and maybe reduce the amount of buffs), so just give rogue a 3% magic damage taken debuff or something as well
and then add some very small (smaller than atrophic) damage reductions or utility to every class
give dk's horn of winter as an alternative for battle shout for example
there should be a way to sim in raidbots with the requirement of having at least 700 haste 😛
its so annoying having to fiddle around and do some guess work
HaT used to give crit at one point
change war / monk to be phys damage dealt, dh / mage to be magic damage dealt, give rogues a grip to compete with dk
Just dont let the sim swap pieced with haste
oddly enough Swiftblade's gave haste too
and multistrike
so we had both the missing secondary buffs at one point lol
now no one gets either
I dont think thats possible with the gems right, like I need to know if crit or mastery sims best. To my knowledge its not possible to do that without letting it exclude haste right
DKs get haste next tier, we get crit easy
dk gets nothing
sub giving a haste % buff right now would be a pretty cruel joke though
they've been babied too long
True
so very on brand for blizz
Dont let it swap gem either then
But having enforced grips on every fight is gonna get old real fast
But from me simming crit vs mastery rings its the same
if they give dk a legitimate traditional raid buff they'd need to prune some of their ridiculous utility
All i do is run crit flask for raid apart from Dragons and Vanguard(when i get there) and mastery everywhere else
am I better off just tunneling boss on dragons, assuming ranged is awake for adds
Is Sub much easier to play now?
we're starting mythic tonight
or i mean how much easier is it to play now?
yes
Havent played rogue in awhile so was curious lol
if i can do sub now, it's def easy enough 🙂
pretty much all specs got simplified across the board going into midnight, sub is definitely one that was simplified more than others
by virute of being perceived as more complicated than a lot of others pre-midnight reworks
Sub got its complexity taken out back and made to suck downa shotgun
I miss being an all-in on burst spec
i feel like WW got more complex, or something about it I just didn't like the change of from TWW, which is why i was fishing around for a new main this season
lust-agnostic burst cleave machine
Good to know ty
Back in Cata, Assassination rogue was 8% magic damage taken debuff on mobs poisoned. Sub rogues gave 5% crit with Honor among Thieves.
Combat was combat and didnt provide a debuff.
good old days when blizz did not hate us
No idea where we lost our group buff/debuffs but not having fuck all now except DR poison feels SO bad
Is there a reason that Shiv doesn’t apply a concentrated Atrophic Poison?
< Coming from classic to retail. Retail is omega fun probably wont go back. But Cata Rogue was
Sub was a lil chalked, but still fun to play.
should i use voidcore on crafted offhand too?
yes, but it's lowest prio
Well yes but off hand is at the very end
thanks
No
Guidon is actually lower. They’re very close.
should update the pin then
it was within a margin of error guidon vs offhand with guidon being slightly higher for me when I did it
none of it really matters
that's 230 gold you have sitting there 😄
Maybe I get 1H for dw frost
because shiv is a low cooldown and empowering a DR effect would make it an overpowered raid cd
you would just have 2-3 rogues rotating shivs with atrophic
permanently
wouldnt be fun
for puzzle box, assuming m+ pulls, in stealth. Do you A: shadowstrike, cast puzzle or do you B: cast puzzlebox, restealth(if possible/if not shadowstep) shadowstrike?
LOL
Any DS enjoyer here? Wanted to know if you send second sec tech in SB or not
@swift tinsel plate belts do not exist.
crafting time
so we got nothing to do until august except this filler raid?
seems like... i'll get some POE2 time in 😄
Cuz sim doesn't and prefer hold for next dance
yeah all I'm waiting for at this point
like another week of rolling in AA and i should have the ring
then it's raid log only
I just need omission of light and i'm done gearing my rogue, not gunna bother chasing pit pants over the ones i crafted because i'm lazy
and they're good enough 😄
You're probably building and spending on pull until everything is grouped.
Hey guys im a returning player.. Which sub guide should i read out of the 3?
Then Cast puzzlebox > CDs
i could try and grab that too
Been trying to avoid. Oh well. We craft.
already have light on mythic and void on hero
if i recraft weapon and wrists i could fit it
yeah i got void from vault a while ago, and then got another one from bonus roll... love it 😄
Playing m+ for gear so you can raid log when you could be playing raid for gear so you can m+ log 
i got 3.4k, if I get the itch to do more i will
3550 def possible
huge 0.6% if i grab the set
on full ST
@warm marlin foreverfist at 273 going crazy in these 13s
I have a question: I have the mythic Vorasius dagger, the mythic Pit dagger, and the mythic Celestial Reach dagger. Which one do you recommend spending to get 298?
you inspired me to probably level a ww
the one that helps you hit the haste cap
that spec does randomly get stacked every few tiers huh
how fun is monk these days
idk wasnt it perma channeling fists as of recent
it has a really nice flow minus the long FoF channel
hmm might try that as a dps/tank alt
ye that's still a thing
FOF is literally all of ur damage
and its like a sub 15 second cooldown
so I mean
If you hate killing spree
ye true its very ks-esque that way
Imagine if KS did damage, but it was literally all of your damage
thats what WW is
This is my overall
Flurry strikes is also FOF btw

better than double aoe tod
monk plays literally the same build in M+ and raid 
over fof
i mean so does sub
like I want Skyfire Heel to be what nimble was
swapping a finality pt for pp is barely a change
no i swap one point ok
big banger cleave
it's very different
I’ve been alting stormbringer enh shaman. Nice change of pace from sub since it is so reactive. Very fun right now imo and damage in keys is good. Hitting 160-170 overall in ~14’s
if they clipped like 1.5sec off the usual channel duration I'd be a big fan
I mean WW would need like a massive energy fix then if FOF was a lower channel
but now its just a button you press during zenith that does a stomp
Ud be more AFK than you already are sometimes
I think that'd be fine, to give a bit higher energy regen or lower tp cost a lil bit
The only good monk cov ability
that didnt make it to the main tree
was weapons of order
but yeah
WW is fun
its also randomly broken and doesn't get nerfed
And our entire guild has like, 1 WW player, who also is a ranged DPS main so we'd rather he stays the broken position yk
I also just want to say, the more I play other classes the more I realize rogue players need to get a fucking grip
Bro
You can't kick, or use any defensive during FOF
and FOF is literally your entire DPS
At least if you cancel KS its doing 2 damage
I would agree if dk didnt exist though
Like bro
And also, WW IS FUCKING PAPER
BRO I HAVE KARMA AND BREW AND THATS IT
VIVIFY HEALS ME FOR 10K
ye we have a ww otp but it seems like it does become a multiple of decently often
lol vivify healing
hasn't been good since torghast power that made it scale and do big dmg
I mean sub can be tanky at the same time that dk is
enhance is also like that
what does rogue have against obelisk dot on alleria huh guy?
just not as tanky bc nothing is
"oh i actually cant stand in shit"
riddle me this
Crimson vial
Unequip cheat death
unequip cheat death
Just look the dot in the face and tell it "I'm stronger than you"
the fastest way to get an external in comms
@lucid jackal I see you
the classic "im dead" comm
LOLOL
fuckin blasted
if you really think about it, 3 vivifies takes about the same time as vial to heal and should be about the same hp 
lmao
I'm actually getting juiced
I'm not sure if dk has been mentioned in this conversation, just wanted to sure
3 globals vs 1 global
What’s ww like in raid ?
strong
They should let us vanish the dot
just lose 90 energy bruh
big burst bois
nbd
If it wasn't a 0 melee tier then WW would be god
IT was probs the best DPS on beloren for melee DPS anyway
But who had a WW preped lol
I can't convert crests yet since I dont have a heroic ring or bracers 
Imagine playing melee
Yeah i mean rogue's biggest downside is conventionally
You're playing a melee
with a non mandatory buff
That's really it
I mean not conventionally
Melee has been stronger than ranged for like 6 years
This is the first time melee has been this bad
I think you can argue sub was better
IF you knew all the juice
this was the first tier in awhile where melee was really fucked at times
yes
Which lke, maybe 1% of sub players knew
even if you didnt having an immune and being able to do all the soaks is nice
even if ww was still a bit higher damage
Yeah thats probs true
did you know dk can also do every soak easily
i learned this on our reclear this week
when they made me do it
anti mechanic shell
i need a redrogue pov from your reclear
is a hell of a button
i may actually be in on DK lol
im legit still the mechanic guy on beloren
but im just tankier
which is what i'll be
oh ye i did do that
hm
i was afraid it would break my ams and im saving it for soaks
i didnt look at the timers too closely
idk or we can just soaks the orbs
someone dies during convergence
oh well
egg has 20 more seconds than prog and we have 10 more ilvl anyway
nbd
mostly meant the post egg groups

egg will mega die anyway
Having 2 charges of ur CD is fun tho
wtb 2 charges of ar
gearing mega fast
I have plenty of warbound gear in vault plus champ gamble from marl
