It was an example
I’m just saying if someone steps on the arrow you were going to step on, it can save you from the wind wave.
SAVE you.
I’m not suggest to do this as your first option…
In tazavesh, the last boss with the portals and quadrants? You can also velf blink across that line too, if you missed the portal.
I think that might be the most useful racial, other than shadowmeld
Dwarf?
They get laughed at on tinder. Not all that useful
the only guy in our guild that has a longterm relationship is a IRL shortking
he won man
Dwarf is probably the best PvE racial right now though, next to Nelf
human is good
Human does nothing afaik?
double hearth charges is really good
big paladin buff
Never run out of the city and gone "Darn, I forgot something" and HS'd back only to run out of the city forgetting a second time and DAMN, HS is on cooldown. Well, no issue with human. It's the best racial
Yeah, but he’s not a dwarf
Just arcantina key
In pvp is there a general addon ppl use to track DR on stuns cc etc ? sometimes i dont know when a target is immune etc wondering if there was something to track it
also on cooldown
human toons were the meta for skinning alts for quick runs
fly eversong -> zul aman -> hearth -> back -> harandar -> voidspire -> hearthback
I swapped to female panda from female human and the animation upgrade is too big to not feel that alone was worth the cost. Also biggest simming race rn was like 850 dps up
reminder you can just use gleeful glamours
and deviate delights
i say that as someone who has all their toons as human 
but i do that because i need a stunbreak
Anyone here use nsrt on lura and can give me a bit of a steer
If i am pushing the icons do i need to be raid lead?
Male looks cooler 
Male panda feint animation is unironically great
I played a panda rogue all of pandaria remix and I can't remember the feint animation. I do love their /lean and their /sleep and /dance
are you talking mythic or heroic
heroic
dont need to be raid lead
Is this a good chair for wow

i have no idea, im still using a PoS chair from best buy that is over 10 years old lmao
office chairs are typically cheaper
can't go wrong with herman miller
unless you do
I guess
White garden chair with a cushion is peak
I use a lawn chair
yo quick question, i got a focus makro
"/clearfocus
/focus [@Mouseover]"
how can i set a marker to the focus targets healthbar ?
"/rm 5"
/javier 3
yeah i have this
it's good support
you can get a headrest attachment for it as well
oh acutally wait i got the embody
not aeron
i didn't like the aeron curved base as much
because i sit cross legged
This is only good for Minecraft
You think I'm joking
/tm [@focus] !5```
This will focus your current target if you don't have a mouseover.
If you have a mouseover, it will focus your mouseover target.
After a focus is set, it will apply a moon
If anyone has ideas to prevent shadowsteping at my current target twice after the sequence if I'm spamming it would be appreciated.
/castsequence [@focus] reset=10 Shadowstep, Kick
/cast [@target] Shadowstep```
That makes me feel awesome thanks blizzard
by removing the 2nd line
?
Then I won't shadowstep back to my current target
the 2nd line triggers every time you press it
yes
eg
/castsequence [@target] reset=5 Shadowstep, null```
think the syntax was something like this
Nah that didn't work
try it without the first line
Maybe can't have 2 cast sequences in a single macro?
possible
you could
try this
/cast [@focus] Shadowstep
/cast [@focus] Kick
/castsequence reset=2 Shadowstep,null
tho i assume it would trigger on your focus again unless you clear your focus
what happens if you
Yeah just spams shadowstep
hmm
I'm thinking 2 keybinds is the way to go
very annoying
Just going to use this I think
/castsequence [@focus] reset=10 Shadowstep, Kick```
Know if there's a way to force the sequence to not reset before the 10 seconds?
i would need to wild guess as i don't know all macro rules by hard
oh ye
/castsequence [@focus] reset=10 Shadowstep, Kick, Null
So after I kick I can't accidently shadowstep my focus again
if I'm spamming in a panic
could do shift + F to step back
does cast sequence blocks sucessive casts?
Elaborate?
e.g. if you
/target focus
/castsequence [@focus] reset=10 Shadowstep, Kick, Null
/targetlasttarget
/cast Shadowstep
would this cast shadowstep on your last target if the cast sequence is not reset or not
Um
That's basically my original macro
It was pretty janky
I'll try that later, I'm not sure about that specifically
You can remove /target focus and /targetlasttarget
Since the sequence is already aimed [@focus]
I think that would hang on null for 10 seconds
personally
ye, i assume too
but it also wouldn't solve your problem
of potential multiple shadowsteps
when spamming
another janky thing would be
I gtg for now, ty for help
you could switch bars
and have a diffrent macro on the bar you switch to
but unsure if the bar switch delay or anything else would interfere
(you also would need to use multiple macros to make sure you would change back to the main bar always)
i remember trying that in old xpacs to solve issues of spells having no icd
it did not fully solve the problem iirc, but made it happen less
Does the DR from Elusiveness stack? If you use Evasion+feint
Allright, guess it can still quite reasonable to stack in some packs in m+
Gonna light up the sky and crash everyone’s games 😂
Pretty sure it's one of those toys only you can see
they came up lke 2 hours early
someone tell me im not tripping, do certain weapon illusions and armor mogs have more particles now?
NA?
...yea?
my graphic settings are the same but im seeing new particles and effects on my mogs
like this black smoke wasnt here before
Is ur particle density on the max setting?
its unchanged
i even changed it to see and it didnt affect the stuff im talkin about though
Is that from the void wings the smoke?
this is particles disabled, that black smokeshit wasnt there before I sweaaar
yeah its coming from the void elf chest
Maybe it’s new
i think im jus truppin
ok the smoke when moving has to be new, but the thing on the back has always been there
I set everything on high after building a new pc and saw effects I've never seen before
Like there is a blur effect when you mount up, or when mobs fire roar/shout casts
Rain ripple effects on water
my favorite was when i swapped to 4k and realized all my transmogs sucked
are there actually only 2 bosses that can drop cloaks that I can catalyst into tier pieces for the Amirdrassil dragonflight mythic tier?
Whoever says “rUn yOuR oWn kEyS” is just straight up cooing at this point. This whole premade system needs a rework
SOLO Q
SOLO Q
SOLO Q
282ilvl 2800 io and I can’t even get into a 10 today, tf is going on
That’s average??? Tf?
I would be too, if I could get a damn invite
When you Q to a 10-12, there are another 30 people waiting in line with you
Most of them are useful
Bro, I’m listing my own 12 too and nobody is applying
I have my group finder to filter groups with tank filled
The que isn’t flooded, they are all waiting for whatever is s tier right now and augs
Needs a rework
Solo Q its your only choice for s rework
I am queuing solo
I meant like solo shuffle
I can get mythic crests from that?
Idk, the system doesn't exist for m+
actually nobody? or just nobody good
like idk im firmly in the "run your own keys" side
i've had 0 issues making my groups even on some cursed alts
and im on oce with like 30% of the player base
Actually nobody. I had to tank it down from a 13 to a 10 to finally get applicants
In an hour I got like one warrior and he cancelled before I could even invite him
I think my shard is cursed
maybe
are you in warmode as well?
idk thats all i can think of
even if it's a single dps you still get other random solo dps applying to it
in the hopes they get invited
because tahts your best bet as a dps to get in
No, I’m not in war mode. I have this problem every mid season, and people don’t believe me when I tell them people just aren’t applying (which makes it even more frustrating that I’m not getting picked up for 10s). I’m on the shard with Stormscale and firetree, both are medium pop servers so I didn’t think it would be an issue, but idk. I gotta try something new. I’m falling behind again
10s are just flooded on reset with people trying to use their bonus rolls
i got declined from 5 in a row as a 3900 udk
it is what it is
13s tho?
no one is gonna do a 13
13-15 are probably the least played key levels above 10 atm
That’s good information
Seems like odd number keys fill slower in general
10s are for speed, 12s are for crests
maybe not 15, but 13-14 for sure
11s are caught in the 10-12 filter and are basically 10s but get a good bit less signups and 13+ are the dead zone
I can’t wait until next season when I have time to get full mythic gear lol
Maybe then, and the server change will be different. What server shard do yall recommend?
but yeah a 13 if you dont have a tank/heal I can see how it would take a while to fill
the shard shouldnt make a difference in lfg
Fek
drop to 12, 2-3 chest go from there would be my suggestion I guess
but ig depending on your io, ilvl lfg invites shouldnt be that insanely hard
because you can farm the crests outside of keys if invites are slow with faster pace


@flat vigil hi
hi
Hello @torpid harness @flat vigil
need some advices Rogue Assassination
i think kanye is one of the good assa rogues.
😭
let me know when you rerolled to Asssassination
@torpid harness @flat vigil
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
dont.
What is the easiest rogue spec to play?
Every spec will say the other specs are easier prolly
Apparently outlaw hard but idk haven’t tried it
Sub rogue is probably the easiest to pick up
What's up with the constant tagging?
Sub by far
kanye is my friend.
4 tags in a row, jfc
what advise do you need?



I forgot how toxic the wow subreddit is
Shame on you for forgetting
That's just reddit.
Not exclusive to wow
is it possible to cover crippling + atrophic application with another rogue in the group ?
if you have 2 rogues
one will likely use numbing, the other one atrophic
atrophic does not stack
w fuu ty
We sure that was fixed?
yes
Okay good to know, thanks fuu
can these be used in pve?
Yeah
Just bonus rolled this POS somehow for the second week in a row despite being in the same loot spec lol. RIP
^may actually be a bug, someone else in the raid bonus rolled the same piece of gear that they did last week too
This was a bug in previous patch iirc, it seems bugs are having a tendency of showing back up, make bug report I guess
Yeah but they’re quite bad
my RL was trying to cook up some shit for m chim lol

dps players press one interrupt button
mission level: impossible
just get your raid to all reroll undead instead 
i say this also after wiping to it 5 times on my attempt
working from home today was a good choice
Ooh, hell yeah
😂 😂 😂 nice luck
“Working” just like I do on my WFH days 😂
Aye, it was a rough meeting 
@flat vigil vvo
who me?
Yes
HUH

hey guys, i was curious, im getting into endgame stuff for the first time and its my first time playing rogue, first time doing m+, rading, being in a guild, but i wanna pull a shindiggs and go up in the world of raiding and im looking for another guild but i like all classes, i was curious what do you guys think is a class that alot of guilds would want? cause from what ive applied to they dont really want rogues xD
dk, lock, mage, hunter
Rogue
I see I see I see 🙂↕️
monk
xD
fair xD
rogue is trash for raid sometimes
dk will always be useful i feel with amz and grip

Yo I’ve been doing keys with some friends - nothing super serious but I’m wondering if I should be playing a certain spec bc of the group comp
I play with fury/demo/rsham
We are getting into 20s - I normally just play sub for boss dam
If that fine or should I be playing assa for prio/funnel? Outlaw is obviously great but does it matter that I don’t have monk buff? Maybe I’m overthinking this but figured I’d ask
gotcha - ty Eleem! Appreciate u
also find it amusing that 20s are "nothing super serious" 😄
Which Rogue spec is the hardest of the 3 to fuck up as a mid player?
Like, I'm pretty bad at DPS. I probably SHOULD be playing BM Hunter.
That level of skill
BM also lost buttons in midnight
But also i still think sub is fairly punishing if you do mess up
I'm really bad at ABC/Movement on ranged with cast times
Not nearly as bad as before ofc, and the things you need to do arent as complicated
What'd they lose? Chakram?
I can't think of many other buttons to prune from that poor spec Lmao
Frenzy charges
Oh right, the only skill expression they had
Also the bite that made the enemy take more damage from pets
idk what it was called
If u don’t hit dances right in sub your dps bottoms though so like
Assassination then? Because about all there is to mess up for them is dm window
All I know is that if you fail at outlaw you end up with low dps and sand for wrists
lol
yeh I assume it's between sub and assa
isnt assa aoe just... get up rupture/garrote and crimson tempest that target a time or two to spread it?
I think so? Idk I struggle to see who’s got the bleed on them
Might just be a me thing though
Hey mods we got a spammer here
no idea what the mod role IS here to ping em lol
@shell hill you look vaguely mod-flavoured, ping.
ty!
is there a way to make cds display a certain format only?
like mm:ss
or just only seconds
is there a way to setup like scroll up macro to focus and set a mark
yo
does anyone know if you can skip the midnight endgame campaign?
this one that is
What's the consencus right now between the 3 specs? Does one of them falls behind too much or one of them shine?
All 3 are good
Assa maybe a bit worse than the others in raids, but not by a huge margin so if you prefer assa play that
can any1 on EU craft engi googles ? 🙃
Many people probably, but this isn't trade chat
Join your /3 or /4 and ask there
You can't
...how?
/tm 1```
just make a macro of that, change the number to the mark you want, then put the macro on your bars and keybind it
but can i bind that to scroll wheel up?
sure why not
Yes but make sure you have a set of key binds to adjust your camera. I changed mine to home / end keys on the keyboard because I also use mouse wheel binds
i'd go crazy if my camera zoom wasn't on my mouse wheel, i'm constantly shifting it
99% of the time I have it at max distance
Hello ya'll
Which discord covers Death Knights?
And did ya'll remember there was an NPC that sold PvP consumables for honor/marks of honor?
Where could I find him in Silvermoon
https://discord.gg/acherus (dk broadly) https://discord.gg/qnFAGcgECn (blood-specific)
idk about pvp 
We need a US version of titan forge this is cool asf
Yeah good luck buddy
!up
My key group comp is a brewmaster/restodruid/survival hunt/ret paladin/ me rogue, what spec fits this comp best for keys 18+ assuming im ok at all 3 spec? Dont really have buffs for cleave.... (no sham/war)
I have keys where assas feels like the play for some prio, some keys outlaw feels banging, sub is always average but never terrible. I just cant decide what spec to focus on for pushing a bit.
:/
It's alt + scrollwheel for me so it's ez to use anytime but I still have my free binds
As someone thats not a current rogue player, can someone expalin the damage profiles of these specs to me. Sorta the Pro/Cons of the 3 in group comp setups please.
All 3 are viable for pretty much anything
Sub falls short on anything that stays in the 2-3 target range though
Could you give more detail? Like is Sub funnel? or are they all? Like why do most rogues play Outlaw but yet there is still a few assa rogues up there in M+? And it seems they are playing similar comps so why the diff in spec choice? Just overall feels?
the funnel niche was more or less removed from subtlety, even prio damage niche got a back seat
Funnel hasn't existed for a while
Your question was just kinda vague and I didn't feel like typing up a novel 
Its vague because i don't know enough about the specs to ask specifics
A quick breeze through the faq channels is a great place to start but all the wowhead guides have pretty much what you're asking for
Outlaw is theoretically the highest dps in keys of the 3, but sub and assa are both not far off. Assa has very good prio damage and has the ability to funnel, but has the worst single target of the 3. Sub has the best single target of the 3, but has the lowest prio. Outlaw shines in lower target counts, and has solid single target, and prio, and is arguably the most balanced of the 3, but it can’t do damage past 8 targets
Basically it all boils down to: play what you find most fun they all work well
The reason i ask here @novel cipher is cause now 2 people have told me sub has either bad or low prio but the wowhead guide says it has strong prio
Well they're wrong
reminder that 99% of the time when people tell you something about rogue, they have no clue what they talk about

Is justice part of this 99% or is he the 1% that is right?
Sub single target and m+ talents are not too dissimilar so they're always doing fantastic boss damage whole also doing good aoe
Little column a, little column b. I've been playing rogue for 20 years so I hope I'd at least have an inkling
Fair enough
DS got some big tuning recently but it's still DS and therefore shit from an ass. Trickster is all around pretty good and if you want to see a mediocre but decently geared rogue in action I can give you a demonstration on something low-ish like a 12
prio damage can be good if you play deathstalker
but for trickster, its not insane anymore
so ye
If you’re comparing to outlaw or assa, sub has lower prio, but it’s not like it’s the worst prio spec in the game or anything
probably should remove that point from wowhead
Also people probably got that impression because sub may be easier than it was but it's still a weird black box that most don't understand
So if you were playing a Phyz comp you would have a greater chance of success with outlaw?
By enough of a margin you should play it?
Which means sub rogues will either be good or terrible
or Ass and Sub are good enough?
All 3 are good, you really can play whatever you find most enjoyable
If you're new to rogue you can try outlaw but sub and ass are easier to get a grip on
All 3 specs are capable of timing any key level right now
Ok then i think the sub rogue implaying with must just be doing somthing wrong
And if you like getting yelled at, all whispyr how he feels about restealths 
How come?
If your sub rogue isn't breaking 100k dps literally every key something is wrong
But I don't know what you mean by 'wrong'
hes always like 20+% behind the other dps and doesnt seem to be ahead in any part of the key, St/Aoe/Prio
He should be top single target
Not many specs can beat us in single target right now
In m+ anyway
If 100K is the bar, then this is bad imo lol
Even in raid not many specs compete with us in single target
I mean i normally do 150s in m+ and I barely know how to play sub
Again, I have no idea what you're looking for. What key level do you run? What kind of raiding are you doing?
Dont care about raid, M+ only, 20+
For 20+ keys sub should be doing 200k overall in pretty much every key
Yeah hes doing like 140-160.
Oh yeah he’s probably making quite a few mistakes
Then he's doing something wrong like being told to funnel or something dumb like just never hitting black powder
Funneling isn't real for rogues and hasn't been for a while but the community is oddly stuck to the idea for some reason
It’s also dungeon dependent. Aa and skyreach are going to be lower overalls, while pit and mc will be higher, but 140-160 is definitely on the low side for even skyreach
Seat sucks ass for sub too in my experience, but I'm not exactly a key title pusher
It’s not too bad, once you get to higher key levels your cds line up better in there
I think it's just the pug life because I've ended up too many times in the situation where you end up in a no leaver jail key that gets pulled 4 mobs at a time 
Yeah that’ll do it lmao
Question regarding Progress as a Player; I'm 4/9m and would like to get deeper into mythic raiding.. how bad are the chances getting into a decent prog grp/ guild this far into the season when most grps don't even want Rogues for the later kills? and what would be the best way to move forward (besides switching to red)?
People definitely want rogues for later bosses
You mustve just read what some ultra doomer around here has said
We do have those (I'm one of them)
I'd say it's more that guilds are not likely to stack multiple rogues compared to say mages or warlocks or something like that
but if you're at 4/9m you're not in the range where guilds are like perfectly tuning their raid comps
Stacking rogues: no
Stacking ret pals: 
hm guess my problem is im in a guild that is struggling with drakes cause people put in low effort and dont show up and im afraid joining another 4/9 or 5/9 guild would be high chance of having similar issues, so i would have to gamble and join a guild that is 6/9 or higher and i dont really see them taking a random 4/9 rogue that just joined back for midnight, i have decent logs but could use some practice soe being benched on a lets say 7/9 guild would suck
Idk if it matters much if you’re not like top whatever
i guess im just a bit late to the party
unless the guild has zero rogues and is looking to check that raid buff box, getting benched is kind of par for the course if you're new and they're deep in prog still
youre overestimating some of those guilds, this tiers curve is pretty funny, a guild that got 8/9m lets say this week is closer to your prog than they are to killing lura for example
yeah thats what im afraid of how likely is it getting some pplayitme in these scenarios
If you’re doing enough damage some 7/9 guild isn’t gonna bench you
maybe i should just pull a shindig and start spamming top100 guilds 
it's all hypotheticals, depends on the circumstances of the guild
wr 1500-2500 type guilds have tons of inconsistent attendance so if you find one the big thing is just showing up and knowing the fights even if you're not in every night
I forget what lura numbers are now, it's probably still terrible
so best way is to start looking for some decent guilds that run low on rogues and start spamming applications?
Just apply to whatever looks good
oof
wait a month --> join a guild hardstuck on lura --> do 1k+ tries until disband or season ends --> profit?
well the reality in wow is the stable guilds usually dont recruit mid tier, its a thing for after prog is done
ofc you can always find a good guild but if theyre a few hundred pulls in on lura for example youre probably not getting subbed in
yeah that's what I was getting at. your best bet is finding a guild whose wr is improving over time, join as a backup/farm guy, and hope to be in for prog next tier
a guild that is on lura now and putting in brand new trials is probably in rough shape to begin with
You can defo find a better guild than one that’s hardstuck on dragons due to shitty attendance though
You’re probably not getting into a Lura prog group but one like cleaning up spire and starting in bel maybe
yeah true so its just a matter of trying to find the sweetspot for me where i still might see some play this season in a stable pretty good guild or picking a guild thats improving but not as far in prog where im getting more playtime
If you show up and arent the worst player in the guild youll be absolutely fine in practically every guild up until like top 100
problem in wow is just if you dont have previous xp people dont give you a chance to prove yourself
but yeah ig if I were you Id look for a guild that has killed paladins by now if you have CE aspirations
atleast paladins*
Recently returned to the game after a long break and cant decide between sub and outlaw rogue
Both seems like a good choice
you should play the spec you enjoy the mostr
I like both and can play relatively well on both, was wondering why outlaw is a lot more popular in high keys than sub despite inconsistency on bones rolls that can screw you up on some packs

i dont think smoke bomb is used anymore
it was nerfed
i mean you're outlaw idk
ask in #outlaw
yeah, i said stuff after that
particle density > low
doesn't this also reduce the visuals of enemy puddles effects etc?
not really
couldnt find bosses or trahs where it was an issue this season
last boss skyreach looks a bit weird thats all
new to rogue, which spec should i start with that wont kill my hand?
sub
Not outlaw
so sub in general? what about assassination?
okay gotcha
Hi all, how is it to play rogue without friends ? (No tank/heal spec for easy tag)
its a dps without a CR/BL and no bigger group utility or buff
soooooooooo.............. not really that great
Random ass question, had there ever been a dungeon where a boss was the first literal pull?
Don't think so
Oh, the maldraxus arena dungeon had like skip pull with 1 mob into boss i think

Can we discuss tricks of the trade and it not lasting an hour… or working at all? I guess I heard something about it working if the tank is in combat first?
Never had an issue with it
You have to hit something before you get the 1hour buff
You gotta proc it within the time of the cast but other than that it's worked perfectly for me every time
Also your tank has to not have a neural silencer on
It even works when tank dies and instant releases
Neural silencer make me madge 
My favorite and most comical interaction
Watch the group die and mobs snapping to their spawn 
what spec is topping atm?
No fight is pure ST this season, so every spec has strong points in the raid

which addon removes the vanilla healthbar and portait and just shows a bar?
any unit frame addons can do that
any suggestions?
Does not matter as much rly, any of them which was updated for midnigth works.
I personally use:
- Unhalted Unit frames
If you just want to modify the default, you can also use Better Blizz Frames. I personally tested it but found the configuration difficult. - Better Blizz Frames
Midnight Simple Unitframes

oh ye, unhalted uses sliders for position

unsure how its handled in midnight unit frames

Guys can any pro ass rogue give some tips, I think I am doing my rotations perfectly my ilvl is 265 yet I constantly get told I deal low dps hovering around 45k when on garrote +rupture and jumping to 80k with kingsbane on 50 and deathsmark. I have watched every youtube video on the matter. I played Deathstalker in the beginning but switched to fatebound which I find does more damage and is less stressful overall.
Have you read the text guides? The pins in #assassination also are super helpful
I've always been more of a text guide guy than a video walkthrough guy personally. It just won't click for me unless I read it sometimes
Your low dps because you're low ilvl
