is there a complete stunlock guide out there?

Recommended Posts

i've pretty excessively rogue in vanilla and i pulled off some great stunts but it was never perfect. perfect would be to never get hit, if all your attacks land/miss from their mechanic and not from not being yet fully aware of what to do. this type of perfection. and i have read it exists.

in this video for example from payo, a fellow nost/ely rogue player

in which's comments you can read a player replying the following:

"if only rogue wanted to - he could`ve taken 0 damage, just 10 times restealth till paladin have 0 mana and no bubble. Just run out before stunlock fades - restealth - come back"

What did he mean by "run out before stunlock fades" ? run where out?

Is there a guide that you know of shows such an example that one can then reproduce of how never to get hit, when the RNGods are kind and nothing misses?

I remember my 1v1s in duels or open world to be in times super tight in timing. No clue back then (noobness) if it was due to gear (had partially or almost full MC, cant quite recall, just have set a foot in BWL yet) or failure on my end

Isnt there a rogue spec you can basicly play naked?

And which spec would this be? I ran sub and assa, for backstab and ambushes and didnt went into hemo

I think by run.. he means kite long enough to drop combat and re-stealth. That only really works against classes w/o range abilities. Paladins are easily kite-able. I have also seen (I've done it once or twice myself) rogues kite warriors out of melee range and just inside of charge/intercept range, pretty hard but doable. You can also use LOS to drop combat as well. 

If my memory services right, after 6 secs you can drop combat.

The movie "world of roguecraft" has some of what you're looking for. It's not a guide but you could learn from just watching.

I feel like the time it takes to get out of combat is longer here for some reason. So you can't imp gouge > restealth in time, there is like half a second after the gouge expires before you run out of combat.

Makes it more annoying to pull of these perfect stunlocks.
