ds is feaky

meager coyote
#

do I lose any damage from having AA up when I press sectech?

vagrant sinew
#

yes but you dont play around it

#

delaying st is worse

meager coyote
#

yeah but I've been pressing backstab at max cp before pressing my cds to activate aa...

#

I've been "minmaxing" a fucking damage loss gg

craggy quail
#

anyone do raid with deathstalker today?

hazy breach
#

Because of a bug

#

So

placid gazelle
#

yo team
Is it me or we are currently the squishiest spec in the game ? since we play without versa, I get obliterated by anything in 18's. Even though I use feint, vial, vanish, cloak and all that stuff corretly, I sometimes get in situations where i get fucked hard. I just did a terrasse 18, a single death, but oh man I was holding my breath the entire time
should I put some versa on gems/enchant ?

#

I currently run this

#

its u

what is a terrasse?

#

magisters?

vagrant sinew
#

mt between 1st and 2nd boss is vietnam

but sub is the tankiest rogue spec

placid gazelle
placid gazelle
warm marlin
#

are you playing cheat

placid gazelle
#

yeah, should i swap to enhanced feint ?

vagrant sinew
#

its alot of rng aswell and if you are NE or not, or if others are

warm marlin
#

yeah you cant play cheat past a certain key level

#

you will just die

placid gazelle
#

I play BE

#

ok i'll swap that ty

vagrant sinew
#

but yeah 18s prob time to ditch cheat

hazy breach
#

Also your mileage is gonna vary a lot based on how good your healer is

vagrant sinew
#

especially with pug healers

short radish
#

yeah

#

the glaive

hazy breach
#

But yes elusiveness is the goto for high keys

short radish
#

hurts so fucking much

#

also if you get a glaive being casted on you

#

vanish it

lucid jackal
#

Is arcanoweave really the best embellishment

short radish
#

2nd best

#

next to hunt

#

though i wonder how the ring is

placid gazelle
short radish
#

idk everything hurts there

#

take feint, press it and pray harder

placid gazelle

#

With new Deathstalker build are we supposed to line up 2nd DN in Shadowblades with supercharged points too? Timing seems a little funky.

Have the gear/haste breakpoint (1,103)

Pissen me off

#

I gotta go get actual bis bracers

short radish
lucid jackal
#

cuz no pants exist in the game

short radish
#

even when it procs haste it's supposedly not shit

lucid jackal
#

I thought beloren dagger + double arcanoweave would be good

#

But no

#

I just need to drop bracer ig

#

i went down a 30 min (maybe longer) rabbit hole of setting this up

#

and yeah just turns out the worst option sims better than 2x arcanoweave

short radish

It does lose value

brisk onyx

But again, the numbers on hunt is just higher

lilac stag
lucid jackal
#

Its like -400 for me

lilac stag
#

but my sims want mastery / vers now lol

lucid jackal
#

I just need to get actual bracers

#

Ig

#

If I want an upgrade

swift tinsel
#

just so I have a better understanding for DS, are we waiting to send dances for when DN and sectech can be supercharged, or just DN and if sectech happens to be the 2nd finisher that's cool, on account of it being weaker for DS

lilac stag
#

what does the belt cata into?

hmm

south moss
#

sim saying i dont need 700 haste anymore and to prioritize crit/mastery over it, this accurate or is it buggin?

south moss
#

sry!

short radish
#

no wukkas

south moss
#

another probably dumb question (sry in advance) assuming you have enough haste is there ever a point where you take something else instead of phoenix oil?

on your mainhand

that one isnt in the faq kek

#

Do I want to go over 1100 haste a little or try to be as close as I can?

lilac stag
#

no reason to go over

hazy breach
#

Anywhere around 1100 is fine

#

-+25

young path
lilac stag
#

i may start swapping gems depending on how pulls deel

hazy breach
#

As long as you can hit all of your globals in dance without issue youre good

barren hull
#

im at 1123 but I can drop to 1102 with gem switches for crit

shy ferry
#

i've done it guys, i have so little vers that droptimizer really wants me to get more vers

outer orchid
abstract vapor
#

we take mastery in algethar?

eager latch

is that just from tier

shy ferry
cosmic viper
#

DS lowkey feels clean with the 1100 haste

eager latch
#

holy

cosmic viper
#

only used it on first 2 tho lol

outer orchid
shy ferry
#

yeah mines only tier helmet

#

apparently my top drop is catalyst belt xD

#

with haste vers

#

literally less haste than i have now too, and im not quite at 1100, i assume the sim wants more liek 1k right? like how before the sim wanted like 650 or whatever

cosmic viper
#

anyone else when they sim a droptimizer the cosmos neck is -1000 dps as trickster no idea why its doing that

outer orchid
#

yeah my droptimizer is suggesting to take vers over crit/mast lol
i stopped doing droptimizers ever since i got 288

#

interesting to see

calm fable
#

is sub bugged right now? my shadow dance isnt benefiting from haste at all

outer orchid
#

only meaningful upgrade is replacing my hero light ring with a myth one

#

maybe npx will be nice to me this week

shy ferry
#

droptimizer is kinda broken for sub because it only considers 1 piece at a time, so if you are slightly above the breakpoint it thinks haste is dogshit and if you are slightly below it it thinks haste is god tier

cosmic viper
#

yeah ima bonus roll and get it tonight 🙏 and jut fix everything to have 700 again

outer orchid
#

i mean i've been seeing consistent results as long as i dont put an oil

shy ferry

most spec just get to go "these things have mastery, i should get them all"

How ds now

Is it now better than fate?

dire ravine
#

Are yall just blasting through the interrupt portion of P1 L'ura and sending on CD, or holding until after first set?

lucid jackal
#

You never hold CDs on that fight, other than the end of P3if the boss is low enough

dire ravine
#

Im in my cooldowns during the interrupts though- isnt she DR'd the whole time?

outer orchid
#

guys what do i do when i'm getting my darkest night with 10 seconds before blades

outer orchid
#

do i just sit and build SHT or do i just send

it increases her damage instead

She doesnt take reduced damage in her interrupt phase?

i tried on averzian played like shit did 30k more boss damage than everyone else

#

I borked like 3 dances

swift tinsel

they feel awkward with the different stipulations vs trickster

ripe flame
#

yea my smol brain had a lot of brainfarts

swift tinsel
#

I need to finish rewiring my brain after hundreds of trickster pulls

#

the muscle memory does not like this lol

jagged hamlet
#

if you arent exactly at 1100 haste you dont have that mamba mentality

#

now hold my beer while i grey parse

swift tinsel
#

I'm 19 haste off from that which is fine

#

I'm not gonna swap a gem from my regular trickster set to get closer

outer orchid
#

what do i do in this situation if i instead have 2 stacks of DSM?

#

or if i have DN

swift tinsel
#

I can regularly hit my 2x DN's in blades and the Sit on One Stack then Evisc Dance+Storm thing

#

so I feel decent

#

need to play with it a lot more before I can give any advice lol

I have a question for you guys, im noticing with lust i can fit in 2 ST inside blades window, but i can only get 1 with supercharged. Should i send both or save ST for next dance and have it supercharged?

wait is it in the faq

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.

hello for m+ what's better to play now Deathstalker or Trickster ? As sub

Never DS in keys

even with change they did?

lilac stag

why would a ST buff be good for keys?

#

Its a ST buff

lilac stag
#

you weren’t playing deathstalkermark in keys when it was 5% ahead in ST. Another 1% ain’t changing that. OMEGAKEKW

its a baby aoe buff too

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).

Is stealth track able in cdm?

tribal blade

i'm testing DS on the dummies and it's a lot more chill when you stop trying to force 1 mark and pooling 5 sht before every dance

#

and panicking when it doesn't happen

#

i looked at logs and people aren't doing it every time too

#

you just kinda go with what you have

vale pine
#

The main diffrence is:

  • You start dance with low cp, and storm first gcd -> new dance + storm macro.
  • You need to get your haste value higher to get full benefits from the hero talent, the diffrence in output is minimal without stat changes.
  • The AA optimization changes, you optimize around DN too now, so strike for apex if needed before evis.
  • On encounters, you will need to pay attention to deathstalkers mark, and use marked for death if it either bugs out or you need to target swap.

copper frigate
#

hello rogue, im new on discord, deathstalkers and tricster are similar , or one is highter ?

keen dome
#

Deathstalker is stronger in single target but more annoying to play. Trickster is fine for all content.

#

You also need to aim for considerably different haste amounts (Trickster = 700 with guidon, 800 w/o. 1100 for DS)

copper frigate
#

ho ok 1100 😮 !

tribal blade
#

learn trickster first

#

you will be using trickster on way more stuff than DS

#

also trickster still won't be "bad" on DS bosses

vale pine
#

set it to max

keen dome
#

I'm not sure there's any content that requires DS at this point. I imagine you can just play trickster on everything, esp with the %increase in raid groups atm. @tribal blade Would DS be better in high keys? I kinda assume not

vale pine
#

Trickster will also be the probably prefered spec in the 12.0.7 raid

#

a lot of adds/aoe

#

Yeah

#

I wonder how AoE / Cleave heavy 12.1's raid is gonna be

tribal blade

nah i just wanna see how much damage it gives compared to the oils

#

Yeah not happening

native zodiac
#

I did 13m crystal dmg last week

tribal blade
nova cairn
#

I saw Dmg used blades at around 2 secs in

tribal blade
#

so guild not full of blasters=trickster kinda better on lura

nova cairn
#

Our WW blows adds up

native zodiac
tribal blade
nova cairn
tribal blade
#

our WW is usually a blaster though so maybe once he's more comfortable he'll start doing mega dam

#

and then i can think about swapping DS possibly

nova cairn
#

Is WW cds 1:30?

#

Or 2 mins

tribal blade
#

1:30 iirc

#

but their cd has 2 charges

#

so they can move it around

nova cairn
#

@native zodiac Do you have a WW or Naa

tribal blade
#

hope i have that right

nova cairn
#

Cus ngl

#

Everytime I have cds

#

They fucking evaporate

tribal blade
#

yeah people were saying taht

nova cairn
#

And it ain’t me

tribal blade
#

but i'm able to have full dance coverage on crystals

nova cairn
#

Yeah same

tribal blade
#

which means they're not getting blowed up fast haha

nova cairn
#

Also @native zodiac What was your log last week on it

#

Shame you private log sad

tribal blade
#

sorry if that was confusing, i meant the crystals are alive over my entire dance duration

nova cairn
#

Ohhh

#

Yeah I don’t have that

tribal blade
#

yeah the later ones

nova cairn
#

Maybe 5 secs of it

tribal blade
#

not dying fast

#

it might be slightly longer than that for me too, it's hard to know exactly

nova cairn
#

I was outlaw for every boss

#

Until last 2

#

I get like this every season tho

#

Play first bosses on outlaw then get bored ICANT

I think next tier I’ll just play w/e is meta

i started doing that with each end boss

World of Warcraft Forums

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...

#

the crusade continues

upbeat cradle
#

my desk isn't like that tho

tribal blade
#

also i'm gonna murder mafic

tribal blade
short radish
#

can you just

#

block people from wow forums

#

so you cant see their posts

tribal blade
#

i don't think so lemme see

#

i'm not gonna ignore him

#

because i like hate watching sometimes

vale pine
#

if you are always tuned strong, you don't need a raid buff

#

DK is a good example of it, even tho they technically have a lot of things they bring else

solid lotus
vale pine
#

thats perspective

solid lotus
#

But you’ve got good banter so you’re in anyway

scarlet heath
#

raid buff is not always a win

tribal blade
scarlet heath
#

look at Evoker "buff"

vale pine
#

it depends on the person you talk to, how this discussion ends up

#

e.g. at the start of the beta, subtlety was unplayable

#

one side did say

tribal blade
#

but i still think it would be far better if rogue had a raid buff because blizz clearly doesn't tune around that

tribal blade
solid lotus
#

Just change the DR to some kind of damage amp and it’s fine

vale pine
#

"You are not allwed to complain, because its clearly not the final version"

#

the other side

solid lotus
#

“This target has 3% chance to be crit”

vale pine
#

"Please complain, to make the problem visible, we can't trust in its visibility without"

#

which one is better, is discussable

#

if you want to have a mainly positive discussion, the earlier

solid lotus
#

I don’t disagree but I think that’s too meta, go one step deeper and just ask do you think rogue is in a good spot / do you think a few small changes could improve rogue gameplay

vale pine
#

And in the end a middle path is the best

#

It is, in my opinion, not good to shut down discussions and complains simply to have a positive feedback

short radish
#

yes but also mafic should be shut down and shut off

vale pine
#

but its also not good to always complain

#

haha ye

#

It is in the end a trust problem

short radish
#

you dont want to know

vale pine
#

and people have diffrent amounts of trust in blizz

#

e.g. you see this often in discussion

#

where my trust level is not as high as e.g. guys

solid lotus

Bro got ganked in 2005 and been plotting on rogues ever since

tribal blade
#

it's very frustrating reading everything he posts

keen dome
#

Damage knob tuning is never a long-term solution as it will shift every season. Raid buff or fundamental changes are far better longer term solutions 'cos they exist outside the scale of damage tuning. It's why a raid buff is the logical solution to the current problems

peak ice
#

What happens when it turns out that prophet was Mafic all along

keen dome
#

Which is why we should give the raid +10% speed

vale pine
#

you always have the guy complaining about w/e

I was trying to make a joke but you got in before the punchline

dusky yacht
#

I’ll never forget that reddit post saying rogues are op and then he went on to mention black powder like aoe is this amazing new ability for us to have (don’t get me wrong, I like bp for big aoe obviously, but like cmon it’s hardly unique lmao)

vale pine
keen dome
#

we all know the real content is idling in towns though

vale pine
dusky yacht
#

True I lowkey enjoy when the game calms down

vale pine
#

for what its worth

keen dome
#

I need more HP

#

444 is annoying me for some reason

vale pine
#

the initial version of black powder, called shadow vault

#

did shortly lock you up in the animation

dusky yacht
#

Oof

vale pine
#

and had a visual knock up effect

solid lotus
#

I remember that, like DFA

vale pine
#

which did negate fall damage

solid lotus
#

Remember when DFA was a thing

vale pine
#

a popular streamer back then, who tested it

dusky yacht
#

Yeah no I much prefer our bp as it is, it’s amazing but it just feels terrible in low numbers

vale pine
#

got excited about

#

how overpowered the ability was

#

because you could

#

IF you had enough combo points

#

jump down and use shadow vault to not die

#

completely broken, right

scarlet heath
#

stonks

vale pine
#

especially if almost all classes can negate fall damage without extra conditions

scarlet heath
#

just play panda rogue

vale pine
#

the point i am trying to make is

#

perspective matters a LOT

lusty solar
#

I played a theater of pain in beta with shadow vault and died 3 times cause of it

scarlet heath
#

but ngl it was kinda nice playing outlaw for that one expansion cuz of hook to negate fall dmg

#

you can still do it with shadowstep but need convinient target

vale pine
#

for me, the main issue with it was:

  • The positional lock
  • The low damage
wheat edge
#

I do really hate raid buffs tho, like it feels awful playing any melee atm without a shaman in the group

vale pine
#

you spamming an ability every 2nd gcd that locks you in place shortly

#

is not interessting

scarlet heath
#

shaman buff should just give mastery

#

the windfury was a mistake

#

too polarizing for a raid buff

vale pine
#

but for somoene who looks at it from a diffrent scope, its exciting

#

"look i can negate fall damage"

#

and the concerns of damage and gcd lock are dismissable

lusty solar
#

3% haste or 3% crit and we in every fight

vale pine
#

Ye

#

I think we now have a good point to ask for a better raid buff

#

because i could see

#

the development team seeing a rogue in play in the wfr

#

and assuming its perfectly fine as is

peak ice
#

did he complain

#

didnt*

lusty solar
#

Even exile said that it was way better if they brought another udk

dusky yacht
#

Didn’t exile say himself that he shouldn’t have been there

lusty solar
#

No reason for a rogue there

vale pine
#

the last world first race

lusty solar
#

Ye

vale pine
#

made it very obviouse that rogue was not bringing enough to justify a raid spot

#

and if something is this obviouse

native zodiac
vale pine
#

everyone can pick it up

#

so you saw it come up in talks during/after a lot more

#

we still need to see if 12.1 rly does something

native zodiac
#

If you are still in prog you can try it out, the only thing that you will have to adjust is that your lust burst is slightly delayed but it fits into lust still

fallow nimbus
#

2% crit & haste raid buff aura to call it day and fuck off with atrophic

native zodiac
#
  • its kinda during the move so you need to get uptime while running
lusty solar
#

I think 3% crit would fit the class very well

fallow nimbus
#

We had that in the past too

vale pine
#

I don't rly know what the best raid buff would be

#

i also wonder how raid buffs get handled if flex raiding mythic becomes a thing

peak ice
#

1 shot bosses

fallow nimbus
#

Crit haste are the last remaining

#

Druid is vers and sham mastery

vale pine
#

we could bring crit damage buffs

wheat edge
#

I wonder what would happen if they just remove all raid buffs and maybe add utility spells onto classes that make them unique enough, I think stuff like 3% vers, 5% int or whatever is soooo boring

vale pine
#

without raid buffs

wheat edge
#

yeah but that also happens now kekw

vale pine
#

why bring something thats not op

lusty solar
#

5 rogue kil Jaeden 🫪

vale pine
#

well you still have all raid buffs covered

wheat edge
#

like max said that they would've played 7 hunters on paladins if they had a few more prepped

vale pine
#

so "it still happens now"

#

basically means the current framework allows for a certain flexibility, which is used

brisk onyx
#

3% crit -- something we should have always had (along with physical amp

lusty solar
#

Class stack still happens but, the only raid buff that is ignored is rogue, and that says a lot imo

wheat edge
#

but also currenlty if your guild only has 1 warrior and that guy suddenly is away

#

you lose so much

short radish
vale pine
#

i mean warrior would not be playing

wheat edge
#

so I feel like everyone having a raid buff is actually less flexible

short radish
#

but there's a tank and heal spec for it

vale pine
#

if the raid buff was not there

#

and neither of their specs was meta

#

same with many classes

#

but e.g. DH you will always have 1

scarlet heath
#

what if we just make it that your raid gets a dmg%/heal% for each unique class used

wheat edge
#

yeah but classes are also balanced around raid buffs currently

scarlet heath
#

promotes you to have each once

vale pine
#

even if it isn't the best

lusty solar
#

Rogue needs to be good to be in, not even okay is enough

wheat edge
#

like warrior cant be turbo op on its own, cause it also brings 5% AP

native zodiac
#

Meanwhile hunters raidbuff is so good now you will be bringing 2 as soon as theres an meaningful add on any fight

wheat edge
#

remove the raid buff -> you have more room to actually tune the class it self

short radish
vale pine
#

like rogue is middle of the pack, with the least impactful raid buff

short radish
vale pine
#

while dh is upper 3rd with the most impactful one

peak ice
#

3% magic is fucked

wheat edge
#

I guess yeah, I guess the classes are balanced around having every raid buff aswell? idk tho maybe im just saying shit

peak ice
#

are they?

vale pine
#

like

#

before nerfs

#

DH was #1 or #2 on wcl

#

with the strongest raid buff

peak ice
#

hows arcane mage doing

vale pine
#

which make the theory of "tuning around raid buffs" not work out

crude vapor
vale pine
#

also for m+

peak ice
#

druid makes my m+ easy

short radish
#

i'm 90% sure all the top comps for m+ have had a druid

vale pine
#

m+ might be the best measurement for it

short radish
#

for the last 10 seasons or something

vale pine
#

because in m+, you have only limited access to raid buffs

peak ice
#

mark is really strong

short radish
#

i fucking hate mark

vale pine
#

means, if m+ is balanced

peak ice
#

and they are like, strong as a class too

short radish
#

that guys a dick

vale pine
#

you see a good spread of classes

#

if raid buffs are even designed/tuned around raiding

#

you would see non raid buff classes dominate m+

#

if we look at the top logs

#

Unholy is the only spec that does not bring a raid buff that sees a lot of play

wheat edge
vale pine
#

DK is maybe a bad example

#

as they are unkillable

#

bring grip

short radish
#

because you can also point to warlocks who don't have a raid buff

vale pine
#

and are tuned very high for a long time now

wheat edge
#

yeah they have intersting utility

short radish
#

yet i haven't heard a single warlock go "we dont have a raid buff"

peak ice
#

they got like 3

short radish
#

and dk's have 2 (grips) Pepegrin

wheat edge
#

like I think grip/gate/even healthstones are 100 times more interesting than I clicked my button now everyone has 3% vers

vale pine
#

warlocks have gate and stones ^^

peak ice
#

Yea, they might be, but what u gonna give a rogue thats similar

vale pine
#

its difficult

wheat edge
#

or like if the 3% magic damage that chaos brand brings, if that had to be applied/maintained in any interesting way I would find that cool

old quiver
#

does Atrophic work on both sides in P3 Lu're?

wheat edge
#

what im really saying is, bring back expose armor garf

vale pine
#

btw.

#

rogue had smoke bomb

warm marlin
vale pine
#

which is now darkness ^^

tribal blade
#

left boss is the real boss

warm marlin
#

All the damage originates from the left Lura

wheat edge
#

20% DR 8 second smokebomb pog

short radish
peak ice
#

we sure do bring this up a lot

short radish
#

yeah

#

it's a dead horse

#

but we will continue to beat it up

sage ivy
#

I want dmg taken increase in execute poison so bad man

upbeat cradle
#

I mean, classes either have utility or raid buffs. Our utility is shroud which is borderline useless nowadays and our raid buff is 3% damage reduction

#

💀

short radish
#

becuase what else is there to do when we bring 0 effective raid buff, 0 utility

#

pure dps class with 0 offensive raid buff, a singular aoe interrupt that doesnt work on some mobs

#

our only unique utility that blizzard actively works to make sure it's not useful in any meaningful content

upbeat cradle
#

And our immune is on a 2min cd unlike DK's 45cd that is functionally the same

vale pine
#

we also had raid wide no parry

upbeat cradle
#

Cept for some stuff you can't face tank with

vale pine
#

even tho not intentional

short radish
#

an immune that works most of the time

#

except on random shit

#

like skyreach last boss

sage ivy
#

Rogue almost had restless crew xdd

vale pine
#

shroud was op in m+

#

which is why its now mostly useless

peak ice
#

was

short radish
#

and grips are op in m+

warm marlin
upbeat cradle
#

Emphasis on was

#

I think it was for two expacs

short radish
warm marlin
vale pine
#

e.g. if you remember

#

priest mc was as good as shroud before they put vision on every mob

short radish
#

better than shroud tbh

vale pine
#

and got changed after, because it was too easy to exploit

short radish
#

shroud on 0 cooldown

vale pine
#

ye

#

so it depends, how exploitable something is

short radish
#

also unrelated but reeeeeee why do i have so much crit (don't answer that i know why)

#

just need the stupid neck from lura kill tonight

oh yeah forgot i swapped that out

i was gonna use the capybara ring

Hey guys, quick Sub Rogue question: I’m playing with Puzzle Box, and Shadow Blades has a 90 sec cooldown while Puzzle Box is 2 min. How should I line them up? Should I use Puzzle Box with every 3rd Shadow Blades and use the 2nd Shadow Blades without it, or should I delay Shadow Blades by 30 seconds each time to sync it with Puzzle Box?
