Slope is different from flat. I don’t think a lot of manufacturers put a slope spec in their instructions but the ones that I have seen are something along the lines of 1” over 10’. I suppose you could have more but what will happen is your floor will walk its way down the slope until it comes to an obstruction. Could be a wall, could be a door jamb, something. If you’re only doing a single room and the slope isn’t too crazy, you’ll be alright.
 
Thanks!

That's good to know. This room is a bedroom so it will have furniture holding the floor in place.
My worse case hump to dip is 2.6" but filling and grinding will improve that.

I do need to add some overall height so I will add some underlayment, plywood or osb.
