outer flare
#

so we want from wanting mastery to crit back to mastery now haste, what a rollercoster

cloud barn
#

the 1100 haste you want to reach is + consumes right? and then guidon on top of that - it's not counting guidon activation?

vale pine
outer flare
#

ya

#

but it still

vale pine
#

was like a week

outer flare
#

was like a week or two

#

yha

vale pine
#

and even then, most did not care

#

deathstalker was/is slightly ahead of trickster, its just now a more noticable

#

(or well will be after the buff)

jagged hamlet
#

after 1100 haste is it crit > mastery, mastery > crit or crit = mastery?

vale pine
#

you just don't want vers

#

so whatever you have

fast dome
shadow lance
#

People here are like my users. Asking stuff that are in the manual

hollow spear
#

eh, for deathstalker you prioritze vers over crit

brisk raptor
#

any of y'all using crit flask for single target?

hollow spear
#

if you play trickster it probably doesnt matter

vale pine
fast dome
#

for both hero specs

hollow spear
#

in the end it's just simself

fast dome
#

not even sure if I can trust that anymore after the recent debacle with Alnseer and my poor Augvoker 🙁

#

😭

hollow spear
#

the only thing you cannot fully trust are the haste values

odd quartz
#

what is the strat for 2 target cleave fights .. i struggle so hard on it and im not fully sure what the optimal strat is

odd quartz
#

are yall doing like what backstab for combo build and spending on black powder?

shrewd lantern
#

barely matters sub sucks at sustained 2t

#

thankfully theres not many instances of it

spring basin
#

It's not like crits on non darkest night finishers are not worth it

shrewd lantern
#

you've got bosses like the last 2 of skyreach that have periodic 2nd target spawns

#

which you let sectech and coup cleave

odd quartz
#

that MC boss with bird just rips my overall LOL

shrewd lantern
#

Well yeah

#

sub is just bad at that

odd quartz
#

im trying to learn how to get anything out of it but struggling for sure

spring basin
tribal vortex
shrewd lantern
#

you still suck at 2t

#

regardless

#

and you still strike in dance to build

odd quartz
#

build shuriken on 2 target .. ill try that next time i was doing backstab build with 2 target on the high health one

shrewd lantern
#

no you're still going to be 3rd on dps

#

if your other 2 dps are awake

spring basin
hollow spear
fast dome
#

just do what the blizzard APL says to do, they have to know best /s

shrewd lantern
#

this is what happens when they gut nimble

#

sub is just back to shit at 2-3t

#

I'd probably just play outlaw in MC

#

personally

spring basin
bleak night
#

why are we playing outlaw in molten core

fast dome
#

I don't hate myself enough to run outlaw

shrewd lantern
#

sub rn is less interesting honestly

#

ss bp spam

fast dome
#

I feel this is fine. if you want tons of buttons and speed chaos outlaw is there for u

shrewd lantern
#

Though playing rogue in keys is kind of int

#

in general

fast dome
#

we should have 3 levels of playstyle in a pure dps class

shrewd lantern
#

dk is just better

#

at everything

fast dome
#

eh I have no issues in 10-15s. I dont bother going above that cuz why

shrewd lantern
#

well people in 15s are

#

kind of slow in the head

fast dome
#

I dont get anything for it, so dont bother.

shrewd lantern
spring basin
#

That reminds me, apparently when a sub rogue is in a m+ group with a demo lock, a demo talent starts pulling random mobs across the room for some reason

#

According to the warlock discord

shrewd lantern
#

if i hated myself i'd play aug

spring basin
#

Funny game

shrewd lantern
#

and get carried

fast dome
#

I do this. Well, as offspec. MS is Preservation

#

cuz I hate myself 😄

torn scarab
#

Is there actually a trinket from M+ that'll beat out an LFR Gaze (besides puzzlebox)?

#

(for m+)

alpine wraith
#

skyreach prism should be better

torn scarab
#

well howdy, that's where I'm at rn

#

lol

fossil forge
#

ive reached the point where my alt rogue does more damage than my main

#

it might be time to put the fries in the bag and drop sub for m+

tribal blade
#

LIKE THIS YES

#

hahaaa nice

dreamy needle
#

is this an addon

lilac stag
still depot
#

for m+ in aoe, when you have coup ready but like probably 6 seconds off from SD tech. is it a hold angle?

tribal blade
#

but i would say just send

frank drift
#

talent for raid is ST image ???

#

!t

lilac stag
alpine wraith
#

depends look if flawless is expiring in those 6 secs

#

if it has like 4 secs left send to refresh

#

before sec tech

dire jolt
#

How badly does it go if you tricks healer Valeera in ??

alpine wraith
#

she dies kinda fast after the fix

#

but some peole did it

dire jolt
#

Bleh, so not any better than tanking yourself

#

I wanted free myth crests

tribal blade
#

esp with how much gear we have now

dire jolt
#

Well I won't have that gear haha. Gonna be 245 after I craft a cloak

random mason
#

On a healer you can supposedly do it as soon as u hit max level

#

With valeera on dps

dire jolt
#

Yeah if they afk most of the fight

#

Boring 12-13 minutes but easy

swift tinsel
#

just set her as dps and its cake, unless you're mistweaver then you aggro immediately lol

dire jolt
#

Nah, I just only cast heals

#

Can't ancient teachings

swift tinsel
#

she was buggy for me though as dps when I was mw and was doing like 4-5k dps

#

so it took quite literally forever

half comet
#

what would you replace for TFD

#

#

17 Maisara, man I'm having a pretty good time playing sub rn

#

I even died on last boss

#

That mt dam was same as mine also in that same key yesterday

#

Duno Is that good dmg for us in 17 tho

#

I see ppl do some crazy numbers on 21, 22 but duno Can we compare dmg from 17 and 20+ 😂

random mason
random mason
cobalt tundra
plucky moon
#

Ye but i do rly good dmg in this Keys and when i pop some stream and see ppl finish 300k+ i fell like im npc lol

#

Duno why 😂

mild matrix
random mason
#

Different comp, so different raid buffs and dmg profiles, different player skill of ypur party member, different timings on pulls which means different times you use your CDs, different route and so on

random mason
#

But at a certain point it's getting lucky with pugs or just having a group to push with

lime vortex
#

Do we play guidon on top of the 1100 haste when going for ds ?

plucky moon
#

I didnt push anything From start but now ive got giga gear and just started like 2 days ago. Atm Is going rly nice ngl

random mason
#

Yeah i had all 10s in first week i think and got 3.4k last week

#

Sub has a pretty low mental load in m+ imo so it's easier to do well consistently

#

In raid too tbh

small sleet
plucky moon
#

Yeah thats true, my question Is does sub have what it takes to do rly high Keys like 20, 21 and if God permits some 22

small sleet
#

I have done 22 mt and mc as sub

plucky moon
#

Cuz everyone Is playing outlaw and sin atm

#

I mean most of the ppl

small sleet
#

All 3 rogue specs are good rn

random mason
small sleet
#

Not really, at this key level you kinda have to know people

plucky moon
bleak nexus
#

I'm ready

small sleet
#

Guidon and gaze, 700 haste, 1kish mastery and the rest crit

lime vortex
#

Still no gaze tho, i'm playing solarflame prisme

#

Just getting hero gaze would be a +8k dps on sim

plucky moon
#

290.81 ilvl, i humanly cant go more than this 😂

how do i do dmg on paladins

peak ice
#

Spam black powder

dusky yacht
quick sable
#

Does the tricks of the trade means for 30 minutes I don't need torecast it to the tank?"

dusky yacht
quick sable
#

then what's the point of that 30 second thing then? ahha

dusky yacht
#

You have to cast it, then within 30 sec damage mobs

#

You can use it on the countdown when dungeon starts

#

In almost all cases this is fine

quick sable
#

ive been spamming it every 30 sec :p

dusky yacht
#

Windrunner might be a bit weird but then just wait a bit

quick sable
#

so you mean to say i dont have to do that (spamming every 30 sec) moving forward on M+ for instance

dusky yacht
#

Just cast it within 30 sec before pull and hit any enemy with anything

#

Then for the next hour or until you die, it will give all threat to the tank

#

Remember to recast after death though this shit kills me sometimes

#

Or pops cheat death

#

Feels stupid when I don't remember

quick sable
#

if cheat death happens it cleanses it?

#

good to know

dusky yacht
#

After I die

#

I run back to the pack and then sometimes what will happen is I won't have tricks up anymore and have forgotten to recast it

#

And the very next pull I kill myself

quick sable
#

haha ah

dusky yacht
#

Or proc cheat death

quick sable
#

ty

dusky yacht

Np

dire jolt
#

I wish farming champ crests on a fresh char didn't suck

lilac stag
#

Ritual sites and run normal raid. You’ll have more than you need

dire jolt
#

eww, normal raid

subtle aspen
#

!fuu

wicked joltBOT
runic sinew
#

with this buffs, are we playing DS even in cleave fights?

dire jolt
#

so dps wise I don't think ?? is gonna feel hard, the big issue is bursting the adds phases down and more HP to live lol.

#

Is there a mod ping?

#

Whispyr busy with LoL

warm marlin
#

@teal coral im sure monster guy is around

peak ice
#

What is this Andrew Tate scam thijng

modern sentinel
#

damn,free money. Im gonna do it also

dire jolt
#

Getting pinged while carrying bot lane AP must suck.

keen dome
#

Damn, they've shifted from it being Mr. Beast to Tate? that's funny

peak ice
#

100% a scam

shadow snow
#

Fak this 1100 haste thing, i have to craft engineering and get the ring from march, aint no way i am gonna play that

keen dome
#

Do you really need to play it, though?

main rivet
#

!haste

wicked joltBOT
#

Secret Techniques cooldown gets reduced by all haste sources, while Shadow Dances duration only gets increased by Haste Rating from gear or consumables. When using an on-use haste trinket, make sure to use it a bit before Shadow Dance to get the extended duration.
The recommended ~700 haste gives you two additional globals in Shadow Dance and Guidon will grant one extra on top of that.

shadow snow
keen dome
#

Yeah, but do you actually need that for all the trouble it's worth?

shadow snow
#

Well tonight i will kill paladins and next week i am gonna prog aleria

#

I still see people go trickster on those fights but data could be outdated, next week maybe someone tries to do those bosses with ds ?

#

I dunno all these talent changes are confusing me

tribal blade
#

for both the adds and boss

#

so it's not a real dps check anymore

#

just mechanics check mostly, same as beloren

shadow snow
tribal blade
#

for either comfort or the inability to hit 1100 haste

#

but who knows

shadow snow

#

Been thinking about swapping from Sub to Outlaw tbh.
Feels like in higher keys you mostly see Outlaw rogues anyway, and we’re slowly getting into that range too.
Just kinda scared of having to completely regear/change stats since the stat prio is so different... what do you think?

keen dome
#

Sooner you start getting another gear set, the sooner it's done. Could just do it slowly and via crafts initialy?

#

But you should play what you enjoy the most first and foremost imo

wet atlas
#

yeah I do prefer sub over outlaw tbh

#

outlaw feels like a warrior 😄

small sleet
#

i mean sub works in high keys

#

if you prefer playing sub there's no reason to swap

wet atlas
#

Yeah but I rarely see Sub up there anymore… been getting some weird comments lately for playing it 😅
We timed the key anyway, and honestly I don’t really care about people complaining as long as my performance is good.

warm marlin
#

they are all mega similar in terms of performance

#

there are just some very dedicated outlaw otps who push very high keys every season

#

even when its bad

#

and then people are perma asking if outlaw is the best spec

wet atlas
#

Yeah...

tribal blade
tribal blade
#

don't listen to them

#

unless it's the diff between like TWW frost mage or arcane where there's an enormous difference in the dmg profile

#

it doesn't matter

bronze hatch
#

nobody cares about deathstalker buffs rite

#

we still tricksy

dreamy wedge
#

Good morning. I am thinking of replacing my belt and using engineering wrist - what embellishment I should put on it?

tribal blade
#

only eng specific stuff

#

go to the person to order crafts and test it out

keen dome
#

they're all bad, imo

#

but it's not like it matters 'cos embels are so minor

dreamy wedge
#

hmm if embels are so minor why do I use crafted gear at all? I thoght it's a big deal

tribal blade
keen dome
serene tapir
tribal blade
#

and not minor enough to not warrant having them

keen dome
#

Eeeh.

#

I think you could run without them and full 289 gear and it'd be minimal

vagrant fossil
tribal blade
#

it's pretty small

dreamy wedge
#

Thanks, I will go play with the simbot a bit and test it

keen dome
#

Yee

#

Crafting is really good for filling slots but if you have an actual 289 alternative it's gonna be (marginally) better

#

And then the two embel slots are bonuses on top of that, imo. But we always put them in weaker slots anyway (Belt/bracer)

#

@tribal blade should I pug heroic lura today

tribal blade
#

if you really want to kill it make everyone get in disc

keen dome
#

assuming I can get into any groups with zero prog for like 3 months lmao

tribal blade
#

and do memory game calls

keen dome
#

Nah, I'm allergic to voice chat in pugs

tribal blade
#

lol fair enough

keen dome
#

BAD experiences

#

not as bad as destiny 2, but bad

tribal blade
#

back when i was still pugging stuff in SL pugs would require you to join voice for sylv

#

because of how complicated that fight was

keen dome
#

Yeah, I can imagine

#

Hm, maybe 8am on a Sunday morning isn't prime pug time.

#

Wait that's set to mythic. I'M THE FOOL.

tribal blade
#

i dunno how pugs are doing lura w/o voice

keen dome
tribal blade
#

i assume they require addons to be set up

keen dome
#

Yeah, northern sky or pugra

tribal blade
#

or you just have to do it

keen dome
#

Which is a stellar addon name

tribal blade
#

i would say go for it

#

or make your own group

keen dome
#

god no I've gained enough grey hairs this season already

tribal blade
#

haha

keen dome
#

the fight looks very chill on heroic anyway if people do dam. Just the memory game, soak beams in P2, don't take cosmic damage if you are babysitting, and also soak stuff in P3/crystals

#

P1 doesn't have a hard HP% phase swap, right? I imagine with the DPS people have right now you'd be able to skip P3 entirely

tribal blade
#

there's a bunch of ways for people to fuck up

#

mainly memory game P1

keen dome
#

Ye

tribal blade
#

then putting the beams in the correct place in P2

#

that's a big one tbh

keen dome
#

I lead normal clears and it was hard and annoying enough with 3 symbols

tribal blade
#

if you know what you're doing in P2 it's easy

#

if you have people who don't

#

it's a nightmare

keen dome
#

the memory game is the thing I just hate and I think is a terrible mechanic to include

tribal blade
keen dome
#

neat

tribal blade
#

should be phasing on time

#

because i always cd int 1 at the same time

keen dome
#

Yeah

tribal blade
#

and yeah you can skip P3 entirely if you push boss fast enough in P2, but that won't happen in a pug prob

keen dome
#

Probably not, no.

#

Maybe if they hero in P2

#

although if there's no HP% shift then I wonder if pug's heroing in P1 is best

tribal blade
#

P3 is not super complicated anyways i think

keen dome
#

nah, on heroic it';s identical to normal but with the soaks

tribal blade
#

the main issue comes from crystals usually

modern sentinel
#

I have only killed it once on hc,cba to do again

keen dome
#

If it wasn't for the P1 memory mechanic I wouldn't feel so "meh" about it

#

it just feels insufferable to me, esp as I am Dyslexic and that shit is really aggrivating

weak glade
#

You do big damage on that boss tho

#

If you ignore EVERYTHING else

#

It’s great

keen dome
#

hell yeah

#

Maybe I wait until 12.0.7 and kill it then

#

just keep putting it off

#

I do think this is funny

modern sentinel
#

Gonna ass blast the boss with all the gear

keen dome
#

Even Ansurek I had like, 10+ kills by the end of the season lol

weak glade
#

Honestly tho the fight is easy as fuck

tribal blade
weak glade
#

The easiest AOTC in a long time

tribal blade
#

and the fucking triangle icon looks like a diamond to me

modern sentinel
#

Ye

keen dome
tribal blade
modern sentinel
#

The icons are dookie

keen dome
#

It's a lot of moving parts on five random people without the right length of time to resolve it imo

tribal blade
#

THIS IS A DIAMOND

#

LITERALLY THE "TRIANGLE" SHAPE

#

yeah that fucks me up so bad lol

keen dome
#

Assuming my casual heroic guild ever kills Baloren, I dunno if they'll ever kill Lura due to the memory game

tribal blade
#

i dunno if they'll ever kill heroic lura tbh

#

lura is way more mechanically intense than beloren on heroic

keen dome
#

Yep

tribal blade
#

heroic beloren is kind of a joke

keen dome
#

At least they're doing Baloren the 'properly' way and not doing the zerg tactic as someone suggested.. With most people doing 5 - 25 parse range.

#

And yeah, I consider Balo the easiest fight this tier on Heroic. It's insanely easy.

modern sentinel
#

Hc bird is loot pinata

keen dome
#

Pugs found the way to make it hard

#

Getting the egg to 20%. Boss respawns. "WIPE IT" with the whole raid alive.

#

Just kill the boss!! do the fight!!!!

#

Are there any other fights this season that pugs have found a way to make harder, hm.

dreamy wedge
keen dome
#

Like a 0.2% dif, right?

dreamy wedge
#

isn't that 2%?

#

ho nvm that's probaably just the puzzle box

keen dome
#

Yeah, there's a 1.5% gain with just the trinkets. Then 1.8% with the top config.

#

So it's around 0.2 - 0.4% dif I guess. Which to me is like, whatever range. Extreeemely minor and you can basically just go with what you personally prefer

dreamy wedge
#

Ye I agree. and I probably squeeze less then that when I play then what the bot sims

keen dome
#

Yeah

fallow thorn
peak ice
#

Sample size for key % probably weird due to the number of rogues

fallow thorn
#

So because there are a few parses, mostly with augs all the other parsea are lower? First time really looking into logs and trying to improve like this

peak ice
#

Left is all parses on all keys

#

Right is all parses on 19 seat

#

So like paladins there’s quite a few so say 1000 have gone through keys and you’re 80% parse, you’re better than 800/1000

there’s probably like 16 rogues that have done it

#

So the like grading curve is all fucked

vale pine
#

good morning lovely people

peak ice
#

Ello

keen dome
#

it's too hot to be a good morning.

zenith hollow
#

anyone have a weakaura or any cdm that would play a sound at 8 seconds left on shadowblades trying to offload some mental during lura

peak ice
#

Was an example

tribal blade
#

but sub has WAY less parses

peak ice
#

Ye

tribal blade
#

parsing is always wonky when you have so few people playing it

#

i remember when the arms in my guild was progging as arms at the start of the season when it was a dead spec

#

he got like a rank 2 but it wasn't even a 99%

#

something lower because of how few arms parses there were

#

just to show how funny the numbers are, there are 871% more ret parses than sub for 19 seat

peak ice
#

This probably isn’t helping the parse though

dreamy wedge
#

looks like an ho fuck moment

#

maybe he died there?

peak ice
#

Yeah

somber sun
#

use AyijeCDM and configure it to have SB buff that shows on your screen and disappear at the 8 sec mark

#

ohh wait nvm

#

1 sec

#

@zenith hollow

#

put whatever you want in " on hide " section as sound indicator

tribal blade
peak ice
#

Do you bind blades and guidon

tribal blade
#

because you're waiting 1 sec between guidon and dance+sectec

#

so if you do that

peak ice
#

Yea I thought that was the case

tribal blade
#

you make it far more likely you cannot fit 2nd sectec into dance during blades

peak ice
#

I’ve got blades bound with dance sec

tribal blade
#

better to have blades+dance+sectec

peak ice
#

And guidon by itself

#

Yep

#

Can you bind pot with guidon

#

Or do you want it to go off after

tribal blade
#

you can yeah, maybe not if you're using the stat one

#

but light's you can

#

prob better to just bind it to blades though

#

because you're sitting afk during guidon

peak ice
#

Right sick, I haven’t bound it because I wasn’t sure

#

But I also don’t want to pot every blades

tribal blade
#

i have it bound to blades in my general setups

#

and then for specific bosses i have seperate templates

#

with pot not bound

dreamy wedge
#

Don't you keep pots of bosses/huge pulls on m+?

#

for

peak ice
#

I feel like I end up potting at random times if it’s bound

tribal blade
peak ice
#

Yea I will pot on the first big pull

#

And then bosses

tribal blade
#

i'm not currently title pushing so it doesn't matter for me to have it bound

#

if i was pushing i would for sure not have it bound

vale pine
#

big pulls and bosses

#

also rank 1 pot is fine if you don't push super high

tribal blade
#

i can play sub optimal because i'm a filthy casual in keys now 🙂

peak ice
#

5min cd kinda harsh tbh

tribal blade
peak ice
#

In too cheap for the high quality pot that’s not an issue

vale pine
somber sun
tribal blade
vale pine
#

we don't do super high ones tho

tribal blade
#

i started using R2 because i'm a meter monkey lol

#

i like big numbers

vale pine
#

so more in the 15-17 range

#

unsure if we will even push 18

#

people seem to have lost motivation for the season

#

with the crest uncap

tribal blade
#

18s are pretty chill still

#

it was definitely the first big step in keys i felt

#

going from 17>18

peak ice
#

Idk

tribal blade
#

but still chill

peak ice
#

I’m feeling it at 17 atm

vale pine
#

keep in mind

#

we don't play optimal comp

#

but "whatever we have"

#

so might not have bl

peak ice
#

1/2 the keys are full of terrible players

vale pine
#

and need to use drums

tribal blade
peak ice
#

It’s not the difficulty it’s the like

modern sentinel
#

I wouldnt call 18s chill lol,thats like top 1%

peak ice
#

The key insta bricks with pubs

vale pine
#

^

tribal blade
vale pine
#

i mean

#

i think most who post here and say its easy

#

haven't done keys with very bad comps

tribal blade
#

i'm used to doing title range keys

keen dome
tribal blade
#

so 1% keys feel like kindergarten

keen dome
vale pine
#

if you play with exceptional players

#

and the right comp

modern sentinel
vale pine
#

19s are "easy"

#

but if you play with average players and "whatever is online"

#

its very diffrent

#

there is a reason almost all higher keys have druid or monk tanks

#

we most of the time play with paladin tank ^^

tribal blade
modern sentinel
#

also healers will say some keys are like satanic starting at like 16-18 already

tribal blade
#

for the majority of players 18s are tough

#

you're right

vale pine
#

paladin or evoker healer often

#

which also isn't that competitive to meta

#

not having the strong raid buffs is similar

tribal blade
#

yeah at this key range you're gonna get a lot of the super off meta specs

vale pine
#

when we do keys, you notice a HUGE diffrence when our comp is more meta heavy or good

tribal blade
#

rsham is not quite meta, but it's top tier

tribal blade
#

well worse than it could be

#

by quite a bit

dreamy wedge
#

I am doing 18's and just did a 19, and all my best runs were totally off metaa

vale pine
#

👍

peak ice
#

Evoker healer seems to struggle?

vale pine
#

my point is simply, playing meta makes keys easier. Having less organized (guild) groups makes 18/19 already hard

peak ice
#

Oh yea no doubt

vale pine
modern sentinel
#

logical

vale pine
#

thats also a problem for us

#

tanks also struggle, this could ofc be a skill issue

dreamy wedge
#

I don't have the understand to ever tell, if tank dies becaause healer or because of himself

vale pine
#

our guild isn't top world rank, but more "casual" (means as in low raid hours and no exteme skill or grind requirements)

modern sentinel
#

the 1 seat pull is good tester

vale pine
#

you mean first pull of the dungeon?

dreamy wedge
#

I think it's an healer test not a tank test

vale pine
#

the tanks we played with can't do the "big" first pull

modern sentinel
#

so much dmg in that hellhole I feel

vale pine
#

always die

vale pine
dreamy wedge
#

isn't the problem there the chains?

tribal blade
#

not just the chains, those mobs also put out a leech debuff that trucks

#

and heals the mobs

#

but you can cloak/vanish/meld it off

modern sentinel
#

I cant imagine seat at like 20, must be real shit time

vale pine
#

evoker is also from how i understand it very bad at healing damage spikes

dreamy wedge
#

fuck, I should have been using wound poison there all this time? I should really make a list.

tribal blade
#

with stasis

#

n shit

vale pine
#

its a skill based spec for sure

#

even if its core is easy

tribal blade
#

and it'll barely affect your overall

vale pine
#

thats kinda true

tribal blade
dreamy wedge
#

I don't care about the poison I care about the talent point

vale pine
#

instant poison does not do that insane amount of damage

tribal blade
#

my guild's rsham swapped to pres for midnight because she HATES how simple rsham got

#

and pres requires thinking to heal

vale pine
#

holy paladin got mindlessly simple

modern sentinel
tribal blade
tribal blade
#

but yes the dmg going out in there

#

is on average more than other dungeons

#

it's very easy to die in there

dreamy wedge
#

I think as melee player seat is very nice to play. just nightmare for healers.

modern sentinel
#

gotta have some cia agents for healers in seat ig

tribal blade
#

seat is in particular quite hard for healers yeah

hollow spear
#

Seat feels fast for weekly keys tho

tribal blade
#

timer is pretty free though yeah

modern sentinel
#

not looking forward to some of the s2 dungeons

tribal blade
#

makes sense

modern sentinel
#

is that timer list?

vale pine
#

is druid this bad now?

#

i thought druid was better

tribal blade
#

thing is MW was already looking to be better even without rdruid getting nerfed

vale pine
#

ohh, the classic

tribal blade
#

so rdruid nerfed>MW already very very good>bear becomes meta tank

#

so the entire thing shifts

vale pine
#

monk is rly good this season

#

in general

tribal blade
#

yeah either brew or MW is solid

dreamy wedge
#

I don't see many WW. they seem kinda squishy.

vale pine
#

its kinda funny

#

how all top r.io switched to druid

#

after it was nerfed

tribal blade
#

double stacking raid buffs not great

dreamy wedge
#

tbf I see many runs hving double monk

#

at 17-18

modern sentinel
#

WW aint bad

tribal blade
#

but go higher

modern sentinel
#

might die abit

tribal blade
#

much higher

dreamy wedge
#

will take me few weeks 😛

vagrant fulcrum
#

I think the issue is that WW isn't outstanding like the other two specs

tribal blade
modern sentinel
#

it is what it is momento

#

Academy feels bad idk

#

Ye but stil fun imo

#

”Fun” xD

hehe yeah it's fun until you add enough key level

somber sun
#

skyreach Chadge

serene tapir
#

Ye i am casual at 19s so prolly wont feel it 🫣

tribal blade
#

i really don't like skyreach

carmine portal
#

Skyreach visuals: great
Skyreach gameplay: poo

#

Fun as evoker bcus I can perma save people from mechanics but other than that

peak ice
#

academy just unforgiving with timer

#

skyreach you can just get booped and theres like 0 counter

#

i think npx and pit are my faves atm

tribal blade
modern sentinel
#

I like pit and nexus also

tribal blade
#

those become hella tight sometimes

peak ice
#

bruh the seat rp

#

can fuck off

modern sentinel
#

skyreach aint bad,done it a lot so prolly why

tribal blade
#

the worst ever was probably rise in DF

#

taht place SUCKED

carmine portal
#

NPX is the opposite, fun bosses but bland visuals

peak ice
#

the seat rp at the end where its like

#

u got 5min left

carmine portal
#

Everything is simply one of many shades of purple

peak ice
#

and theyre like

#

lets real slow open this door

tribal blade
#

the RP before last boss in seat is kinda good in some ways

#

because it allows you to zone out and respec ST

carmine portal
#

lol

peak ice
#

lol true

#

tbh i never do that

tribal blade
#

i did it for last boss of rookery

#

rookery was fucking crazy at title range

#

and last boss was tough

peak ice
#

do you have to run back through

modern sentinel
#

ptsd

tribal blade
#

for rookery not all the way, but quite a bit

#

but it was worth

peak ice
#

but for seat

tribal blade
#

because getting less phases on last boss

peak ice
#

u do right

tribal blade
#

was a huge time save

tribal blade
shadow snow
#

This season dungeons are really fun and intuitive i think. I fear next season is not gonna be like that.

#

Murder Row and Den of Nalorak seem like they will be alot of trouble

peak ice
#

The plant one

#

The one with the trex thing

modern sentinel
#

oh god

peak ice
#

Guaranteed that sucks

tribal blade
#

i think den is the worst dungeon blizz has designed in years

#

that place looks like complete ass

#

and feels like complete ass to do

peak ice
#

I don’t like the ice with the bears

tribal blade
#

first area is also like brackenhide

#

which gives me PTSD

tribal blade
dreamy wedge
#

You really spec ST for anything now? that one point? 😛

modern sentinel
#

brackenhide was scary,but had nice gear so I did it abit

@tribal blade Joined a L'ura pug. Lead is silent. People ask if we're using an addon. Silence. More silence. SOmeone asks a second time. BAM PULL TIMER. lmao

peak ice
#

Bail

modern sentinel
#

I cant imagine puggin that boss

keen dome
#

I fucked the first dirge. Then we did a second pull and someone fucked the second dirge and I left 'cos I was the only person doing higher than 100k DPS. with hero on pull.

carmine portal
#

"just do mechanics"

#

On Myth lura??

keen dome
#

Heroic

carmine portal
#

AH right

keen dome
#

Mythic L'ura is, I HOPE!!! not puggable

#

god could you imagine if it was

tribal blade
#

damn pugging mythic lura would be fucking crazy

#

that would mean you did mythic beloren

#

which is equally crazy

keen dome
#

I think myth birb is gonna be puggable soon

carmine portal
#

think I do more than 100k with hero as afflic in AOE spec on ST

keen dome
#

Yeah

#

I mean I spike to like 350k or something

modern sentinel
#

I have pugged dream and up to saladbar

tribal blade
carmine portal
#

Can't do anywhere close on ST with afflic

keen dome
#

Super chill

tribal blade
#

it's incredibly easy to wipe on bird

#

everything 1 shots

keen dome
#

Saladbar is def doable but effort and no real gain

#

Dwagons is also puggable but not by Typical Pugs.

modern sentinel
#

german guild got me in, and we killed shit and went to bed after

keen dome
#

nice

carmine portal
#

#beastmode

keen dome
#

L'ura def feels insanely easy if the mechanics are done.

carmine portal
#

Isn't that by definiton all bosses tho

keen dome
#

But I guess that's a pretty pointless statement

#

Yeah, haha

tribal blade
#

lura is not hard if you're coordinated

carmine portal
#

hjaha

keen dome
#

I was thinking that after i hit enter

#

"wait that's every fight"

tribal blade
carmine portal
#

"It's actually so easy if you get it to 0% hp"

tribal blade
#

than most bosses

keen dome
#

But you know what I mean. mechanically it's not a complex boss 'cos it has two hard mechanics

#

and then everything else is whatever

carmine portal
#

Yeahn ofc

tribal blade
#

i can imagine lura is an absolute nightmare if you're not coordinated

keen dome
#

It's like how Myth Chim is extremely easy if you can do the kicks 'cos not much else is hard

carmine portal
#

It's hard in two ways: Being coordinated is step 1

#

STAYING coordinated is step 2

keen dome
#

Yeah

3 fears went off, the same mob just pingponging around (ignore how they can't do this 'cos of the realms)

modern sentinel

had like 4-5 dks on kill

minor osprey
#

on DS should i send a second sectec in blades

keen dome
#

2 per group, so the adds were a non-issue in theory

#

But this was before 12.0.5

modern sentinel
#

I cant remember,I was wasted. Dont look at logs

keen dome
#

Haha

modern sentinel
#

then I got gaze on bonus

keen dome
#

Winning

modern sentinel

German beer and german guild,it was meant to be

Haven't touched M+ since vodiforge was activated oops

#

Hi in deathstalker build you want no crit right ?

dreamy wedge
golden coral
tribal blade
#

so crit loses value from that

#

if you factor how much of that evis dmg came from DN

#

on all that dmg crit was completely worthless

vale pine
#

crit is still fine tho

#

its not completely useless

tribal blade
#

true not completely useless

vale pine
#

!sheet

wicked joltBOT
vale pine
#

e.g. the profile still has some crit

#

ofc its more mastery and haste

keen dome
#

crit is just a 50/50

#

you either do, or you don't.

hazy breach
#

Fwiw DS also has the universal crit damage talent

#

Which makes crit quite a lot better, on anything that isn't dn

bitter halo
#

Can anyone recommend an effective interrupt addon for tracking kicks and alerts?

tribal blade
#

i completely forgot about that talent

#

and it's the "good" crit dmg

hazy breach

Its not

you can track your focus kick with this addon

Yo guys, i want to replace Cooldown Manager Centered that i'm using coupled with sensei since midnight release, I pretty much want the same look i just want to be able to track some extra buffs in the CDM, like bloodlust, trinket buff, trinket cd, etc that CMC don't do, any suggestion ?

wispy crystal
#

is deathstalker the play next reset after hotfix?

wild sapphire
#

Guys, sorry for the noob question but i just got to 90.
Im checking logs and povs and i see alot of people on m+ going with full combo points INTO dance, thecnique, then storn instead of black powder? Even tho they have full CP?

golden totem
#

not a noob question btw

#

you wanna boost ur finisher if its supercharged

#

as trickster

wild sapphire
#

Ohhhh! I think i need a new CDM to track that 😂

golden totem
#

blizzard does it if you want with thse 2 black bars

#

else you can also track this in the cdm

strong mulch
#

Hey guys, anyone theorycrafting the upcomming rogue changes?

golden totem
#

if you don't see the black bars you can change in hte blizzard settings this :

golden totem
strong mulch
#

Thanks

#

another question 😄

#

for how long do you hold Shadow dance to wait for Secret techic?

#

i 'm holding it for 5sec if ST is comming up

#

dk if it's right or not

golden totem
#

You pretty much always wanna hold dance to press it coupled with sectec

#

but you should not cap on dance charges if you play it right

#

unless you're waiting for blades too, can happen

strong mulch
#

ok i see

golden totem
#

you can delay up to 10sec to wait for blade cd

strong mulch
#

And.. when you go into SD with ST up do you try to proc appex or send ST straight away?

golden totem
#

nah you don't want to apex sectec, doesn't work well together

wild sapphire
wild sapphire
#

What about ST?

golden totem
#

huh

wild sapphire
#

Nvm, Im confused as shir

golden totem
#

the usual sequence is :
Dance + sectec - Storm - If you don't have apex proc you storm again - black powder

#

but if you pool some sht stacks before dancing you should proc apex automatically and not even have to play around it

#

same for singletarget

#

doesnt change the logic

wild sapphire
#

I see! Need to pit time on it!
In the fac it says 1% dps increase?

1100 haste ?!!! is it possible ?

Lura ring kinda good ngl

quite a bit of haste on it

is the tertiary random?

got avoidance

tepid trellis

ngl was from vault

so no clue

hollow spear

mine is heroic though, will enter the wipe factory next raid

gonna try DS on windchime in a bit when they kill Aleria + bird

kinda blasts ngl

time to mark snipe crystals on windchime

surely it wont bug out

So for strictly m+ around the 19-20 range, is DS worth swapping to? I really dont raid (wife and 11 month old zero time for that). Checked pins, looks like the prio might be worth it

tepid trellis

DS hell nah

#

not for m+

old lynx

its strictly for single target

if ur raid call can start hearing ur button presses u know its a 100 parse inc

I’m just very consistent about focusing on mechanics over getting another cast in or panicking over oh no I fucked up apex shit

marble sail
#

so ur just a good raider

lilac stag
#

and for our level of prog, Dps is rarely the block

marble sail
#

i mean dps is mostly irrelevant unless ur like in the top 50-100 maybe

lilac stag

I think our arms warrior did 110k on paladins garf

getting used to a fight will gain u tons of dps if u were to miss some

is DS good for belo ? Or I should stick with trickster?

Hi! I've been watching some logs, and I struggle to understand my damage output
In this screen, I'm on the left, better guy is on the right, we have similar Ilvl, similar stats, not enough imo to explain the damage difference. Not taking into account the dps since I took longer to time the key, would any of you, at first glance, have an explanation as to why my damage is noticeably lower? It's like that on lots of my keys. Thank you very much!

No

But if you can't hit it without, it's a good option

i have alleria neck so it seems possible, probably just need to regem and craft the single stat items with haste. thanks eleem

yeah with crafted engi item it is doable

Eleem, out of curiosity. Have you simed AA minmax on ds?

I feel like it's a bigger tradeoff on ds than it is on trickster, especially when it comes to the pre-pull dance.

3 quick questions:

  1. is it worth applying fazed to a pack before sending cds in m+?
  2. should i be going into every dance window with a apex proc for my dance/secret tech macro so it procs it?
  3. sometimes i notice on boss fights my find weakness falls off and is not active before cds, should i wait for it to reapply before sending cds?
