This pathetic thread reminds me of the prot warriors tears before the patch about how blizzard "killed the spec viability"...
sure they did
Spec sucks anyway. It's so stupid, like it's an improvement over "Combat." The third rogue spec needs to become Bard.
Totally different, Warrior was the best tank in mitigation while also being able to outdamage dps classes. Now they're still the best mitigation tank that just do regular tank damage. Their ability to tank was unchanged in the patch. Take DKs for instance they took a survivability nerf now they're one of the worst tanks for raid and M+ they just can't survive against tyrannical bosses above 19-20.
Oh and Warriors were not sucker punched with a tuesday hotfix, they knew that was coming for what 3 months?

yep. i agree to that.
also i will never realize why there is always a FULL raid tier supporting heavily one specific niche, i.e. multi dot specs like affli, boomie or shadow and then another tier focusing heavily on mass aoe snap dmg for massive adds, for elementals, fire, or melee aoe. why they not mix all those encounters in 1 raid tier, so every class can shine the same way and overall all classes are more balanced, inside 1 tier, is out of my head.
They've been nerfing outlaw consistently for awhile and I'd argue that beguiling was designed 100% with rogues in mind.
This nerf is one of the biggest single patch nerfs I can remember and wish that blizz had a better approach to things, smaller and more frequent nerfs to bring things in line and equally small and frequent buffs to other classes that are under performing.
Does this nerf to outlaw do anything to get more Sub rogues in? If rogues fall behind they just get replaced by whatever else is doing really good, it'd be nice to see blizz try and balance RDPS and MDPS better so that raids aren't favouring RDPS and m+ isn't favouring MDPS.
I hope that's a joke. Rogues have more utility than Warriors and Shamans put together, the best PvE survivability in the game, and Outlaw will still have top-tier AoE damage on top of decent-to-good ST damage. They won't completely and utterly dominate the M+ ladder anymore, but that's a good thing, and will remain top picks.
As for raids, Outlaw right now is in the top third of most fights in the game. They can very well handle a small ST nerf.
Blizzard is afraid of embarrassing themselves by promoting a rogue only MDI. Double rogue is bad enough as lacking class variety diminishes viewers count. After a triple rogue MDI the MDI itself would be dead.
stop being delusional, it was needed
Give subtlety its glory back thanks. when blizzard first started out they were really good company. today they have turned into the globalist assholes they are today.. the best decision is simply stop doing business with blizzard. they need to suffer and loose money because no one there now knows how to make good games anymore. Chris Metzen was one of their best talent and hes gone. there's no one left that honestly wants to make good product.. STOP DOING BUSINESS WITH BLIZZARD. who ever decided to break subtlety for legions stupid artifact should be fired. end of story.

If rogues were bottom of the pack for a few m+ seasons that would've been fine.
