TWW: Outlaw rogue being thrown out and forgotten

What is going on at blizz? Why are they doing nothing about how horrible and underperforming outlaw is in TWW. Rogues already have a hard time getting into keys. We don’t have a brez or lust. We are a second option. We don’t need a rework. I love the play style just help us out with damage at least. I’m not even asking to be put in S or A tier…just something competitive. This is absolutely crazy.

Rogues will be hands down the worst class in TWW. 0 good changes. The only changes were nerfs. All 3 hero specs are awful and make no sense.

It sure does feel like a repeat of MoP. Just have to hold on for the mid expansion rework.

I mean that is how it is unfolding. No crying, no tears just facing the facts.

And by nerfs, we can completely exclude aura tuning or raw dps numbers because the gameplay results from nerfing ace and haste requirements on AR have objectively slowed down the spec (killing its niche) and have increased its dmg variance (already high).

I can say that most outlaw enjoyers would happily take a smack to the face in the form of an aura nerf rather than taking the gameplay nerfs.

Honestly, it’s okay to not play The War Within and miss this expansion. That’s how I view it. Imagine the time and money you will save, not that Blizzard has a lot of cool stuff to buy in the store. Maybe they will get it right next expansion, a few years from now. I’m definitely not the type of guy to sit around and wait, and if I miss out on any part of T1, which Rogues will absolutely not get to enjoy. I can’t even enjoy pre-patch. It’s embarrassing to see my DPS below or just above the tank in a mythic, or, to see my DPS way at the bottom in raid. No thanks.

I’ve been unsubbed for just a few days and it’s already the most productive I’ve ever been for a couple of years.
Screw giving that up and coming back for just for an absolute neglected mess of a class.

That is why I do not preorder or play early on. This way we are not rewarding such very unprofessional game design.

I predict by the first major patch that they might fix some Rogue mechanics.

good, no version of wow is ever good with rogues going around killing people in stun

Classic, BC, WotLK, Cata probs mop. DF.

Been killing people in stuns for all the good ones.

Could even 1 hit people in open world on a rogue in legion for a good portion of it
