Did the Artifact Traits priority change for Sub with the latest hotfix? I specifically curious about the Shuriken Storm trait.

#

It used to be last.

plush relic
#

Stjern's guide says to take shuriken storm trait in in 2nd path, it did before changes as well

summer finch
#

yes!^^

ember wigeon
#

it's funny cause they could have buffed shadow nova which is golden

#

I mean, if second shuriken ends up bringing more for aoe then a golden trait

#

it's kinda weird

guys need some help with simc

@here Spreadsheet updated, stats scaling not included since I won't do them anymore but instead Optimal Stats Distribution

What spreadsheet did you update, Aethys?

rich beacon
#

ty

boreal rune
#

@pseudo grove you mentioned Stats Distribution but I don't see anything about it? Or just not put in yet

pseudo grove
#

still generating

violet elm
#

great job aeth

#

do you think as far as heroic raiding goes sin/sub is the way to go or is it fight by fight basis

elfin remnant
#

is sim client update with recent changes?

ember wigeon
#

yes

versed thicket
#

I think it's outlaw/sub, but it's fight by fight

ember wigeon
#

hmm although sorry I don't know for windows

versed thicket
#

any combination is fine

violet elm
#

isnt outlaw a lil less predictable

elfin remnant
#

T19H - 855-860 right?

woeful beacon
#

@pseudo grove does insignia of ravenholdt still use player's crit in sims? it's showing to be base in logs

versed thicket
#

865

violet elm
#

i have had up to 6 rolls in a row not proc 2 or more

versed thicket
#

it can be but it's not exactly likely

#

and you can and should not reroll on certain phases and circumstances

#

like near the end of fights or on short to mid-lived adds

violet elm
#

yea im talking open'r/mid fight

#

sarm can you link your armory? i wanna see what youre rollin with as far as trinkets and chants

mighty plaza
#

Dear All, with the recent changes, do you still expect to see sub outscales hard other specs? should we start to put all AP into the sub artifacts,

rain lance
pseudo grove
#

@woeful beacon again, I fixed it.

woeful beacon
#

Sorry, didn't know if it was in. Appreciate all your work!

#

Hey

#

any simC for Sub stats ?

ember wigeon
#

it depends on your gear

#

if you got energetic stabbing relics than mastery /versa

#

otherwise haste

pulsar fiber
#

does the downloadable simcraft have the hotfix changes already?

pseudo grove
#

@ember wigeon better take vigor than taking haste ๐Ÿ˜„

ember wigeon
#

I got vigor (because I'm too lazy/bad to pool) and I still sim haste myself

#

I don't gear haste though ๐Ÿ˜„

summer finch
#

so, are we using finisher during shadow dance now or is this a dps loss?

versed thicket
#

it's not a dps loss because you get energy back

summer finch
#

but you cant do a fourth shadowstrike

ember wigeon
#

yes you can

versed thicket
#

you're more limited by energy in shadowdance than time in shadowdance

#

well if you are using subterfuge

#

which you should

ember wigeon
#

except if you run dfa, but then, don't

lament grotto
#

did they ever make artifact info available via api? can simc import yet or still use the add on?

versed thicket
#

MoS+subterfuge+DS+premed+MoS is so good

#

especially with the upcoming finisher buffs

ember wigeon
#

I use vigor but I'm a noob :p

versed thicket
#

DS is really good

#

fewer wasted cp and more finisher damage

ember wigeon
#

probably more wasted energy though

#

sometimes, in BL on pull in particular, I'm just overflowing energy

#

entering dance at max energy feelsbad ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

versed thicket
#

I mean energy capping during BL is nearly guarenteed

#

DS lets you deal more damage during it

summer finch
#

you could take MfD. less energy, but more shadow dances

versed thicket
#

nah MoS is so amazing outside of BL

#

MFD is a lot less impressive on sub, when more finishers doesn't add as much damage nad you don't have true bearing

ember wigeon
#

yeah

#

even for adds, if you're in a situation to chain MFD, you probably can just shuriken storm anyway

pseudo grove
#

DfA is good

#

but MfD is better

#

if you can get like 6 MfD per mins

ember wigeon
#

aethys do you know where to look for procrate for trinket in simc?

#

I can't find the procrate for terrorbound nexus

#

so I'm looking to find what simc uses to have an idea

#

it's really hard to test in game as it hits multiple time

pseudo grove
#

btw, I added the reports to

#

<@&224906552333697025> I think the img should be unpinned and maybe pin the spreadsheet for those that don't have it

#

or better, the thread

#

since I give some explanations there

rain lance
plush relic
#

ah

#

fiery beat me

rain lance
#

@pseudo grove in this channel you should be able to pin stuff

#

for future reference, if you can't I need to check some settings

pseudo grove
#

okay, thanks @rain lance

#

then

#

Spreadsheet is now updated with 9/24 hotfix, stats scaling are missing and will be replaced with optimal secondary stat distribution in a future update (those are still generating).

#

nice

frozen brook
#

thx aethys ๐Ÿ‘

#

stats value for ST is missing?

#

or for all i'd say

#

wow sub doing competitive dps even with 3+ targets. i hope wont get the nerf bat

pseudo grove
#

what Muxzo ?

#

I mean, I don't get it

#

yes I told u

#

sub is strong

#

way more AoE than HfC era

frozen brook
#

there's no stats value in the spreadsheet

#

it's blank

": Spreadsheet is now updated with 9/24 hotfix, stats scaling are missing and will be replaced with optimal secondary stat distribution in a future update (those are still generating)."

frozen brook
#

woops didnt notice that

pseudo grove
#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ

frozen brook
#

for sub with 2 targets do we keep up nightblade on both?

versed thicket
#

yea

pseudo grove
#
actions.finish+=/nightblade,target_if=max:target.time_to_die,if=target.time_to_die>10&((refreshable&(!finality|buff.finality_nightblade.up))|remains<tick_time)

#

no limit for nightblade

#

as much as you can maintain

#

on the mobs with highest TTD

#

oh

#

that's the old one

#

let me fix it

#

good

#

now you DfA on 6+ units over Nightblade

frozen brook
#

meaning?

versed thicket
#

if there's more than 6 targets just dfa

frozen brook
#

oh

versed thicket
#

6 or more

#

I should say

pseudo grove
#

no, it means you DfA, then you nightblade

#

while on 5-

versed thicket
#

oh

pseudo grove
#

you nightblade all units then DfA

white lantern
#

In this next hotfix is outlaw still the top dog or no?

versed thicket
#

yea OK that's what I though

frozen brook
#

scroll up soul

versed thicket
#

soul: depends on your gear level, and the fights

frozen brook
#

check the spreadsheet

versed thicket
#

and it's really close no matter what

frozen brook
#

it will answer all ur questions

pseudo grove
#

wish discord will force people to read pins before being able to post each time a new pin has been added

frozen brook
#

lol

rain lance
#

I wish I could do that

frozen brook
#

but is there any 6+ adds in EN/NH?

versed thicket
#

in EN? Spiders if things go badly?

distant gate
#

So it seems like these sims value going to shadow nova route after the first 19, rather than grabbing increase to NB and SS?

versed thicket
#

oozes on heart

frozen brook
#

yea but they didnt live long enough

#

to use nightblade

versed thicket
#

yea

rain lance
#

alright folks this is getting out of the realm of TC

versed thicket
#

fair

frozen brook
#

woops yeah

rain lance
#

thanks

frozen brook
#

one question of theorycrafting leading to another question lol

rain lance
#

yeah I get that

#

but once things moves out of a mostly numerical domain I'd like to move them back to other channels

distant gate
#

how far behind is the PURE st path that goes through the bottom of Sub,- it seems surprisng that those talents that increase NB and SS are behind the top path of SB and Shadow nova?

#

i can ask that elsewhere

#

sorry if that is not relavent to tc

rain lance
#

Nezarr your best bet is to sim it yourself, and yes please ask elsewhere

abstract skiff
#

Hey @pseudo grove Why Insignia of Ravenholdt has a negative value for % increase in the assa 3 target legendary sims ?

manic pulsar
#

Does insignia proc on fan of knives?

abstract skiff
#

can't test it but it should no ?

manic pulsar
#

Dunno ^^

pseudo grove
#

no it doesn't

#

proc on AoE

manic pulsar
#

So that's why, current APL doesn't use Mutilate with 3+ targets

pseudo grove
#

Yes, APL isn't updated btw

#

I should have said it

#

for Assassination

#

@manic pulsar work ๐Ÿ˜„

manic pulsar
#

It probably should with the ring to be fair

#

But I overlooked that case

abstract skiff
#

oh ok I didn't know that !

frozen brook
#

@pseudo grove on mythic gear weaponmaster pulls ahead of mos?

#

oh nvm that's just max dps ignore my question

pseudo grove
#

no but on AoE yes

#

because it procs on target

#

and not on cast

frozen brook
#

cool

pseudo grove
#

(it does a 6% roll for each unit hit by Shuriken Strom basically, if one of them succeed, then it cast again Shuriken Storm)

white trail
#

@manic pulsar doesn't work on FoK, Shuriken Storm, Poisoned Knife and Shuriken Toss

#

but works with Pistol Shot

#

which is weird

#

I can retest if you wish

#

oh and doesn't work with Goremaw's Bite

#

which is the weirdest thing since works with Mutilate

lament grotto
#

did they fix that random extra hit when using weaponmaster and goremaw?

manic pulsar
#

Ok ty

white trail
#

just retested. no changes

#

they only thing I cannot test is blunderbuss

pseudo grove
#

logs with blunderbuss @white trail

white trail
#

@pseudo grove Sub t19H sample profile doesn't have on-use trinket line

#

mythic one as well it seems

manic pulsar
#

Does it have a on-use trinket?

white trail
#

no but would it hurt to have that line?

manic pulsar
#

It's automatically generated

white trail
#

sorry then

pseudo grove
#

๐Ÿ˜„

plush relic
#

if i wanted to main outlaw and offspec sub for the patchwerk fights in mythic EN (nyth, ursroc), about how many points in sub weap is good?

#

im not sure what a good breakpoint is for AP invested/damage gained from it

#

i have 13 currently but should i rush a second dragon? etc

chrome sun
#

not appropriate for this channel; please take to general or SQ

#

(but a very interesting question none-the-less, just better suited there)

distant gate
#

How does Dreadlords Deciet work exactly?

chrome sun
#

ask @pseudo grove, I think he got one on live ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜‰

distant gate
#

It cant be as insane as it looks if it stacks to max and u hit FoK once?

chrome sun
#

yes, that's how it works

#

your first FoK or ShurStorm is very strong

distant gate
#

if its additive, would it not be like 1000%?

#

and then it would stack to that level every min?

chrome sun
#

indeed it would! ๐Ÿ˜„

#

imagine the combination with the 150% FoK pvp trait (on hitting three+targets)

distant gate
#

at Max stacks how hard would it be hitting?

manic bramble
#

I messed with it on beta and it was like 200k~ per target

chrome sun
#

i think it is additive, so.. 1050% ?

manic bramble
#

I forget what gear I had though

chrome sun
#

can't math early in the day

manic bramble
#

yeah it's 1050~

#

35*30

distant gate
#

i need to go see how hard fan hits for

#

so out of stealth as sub that would hit for 1mil ish, every min? so its like 5 mil damage over 5 mins? which is like an old war pot

icy mango
#

For sub, I've been doing some experimenting with the finality talent and using nb. Has anyone done Sims on procing finality: nightblade with 1-2 cp then building to a 6cp nb (similar to rupture exsang)?

vast bobcat
#

finality scales its amp based on the cp you use on the unbuffed one

icy mango
#

What's the % on that? I can't seem to find anything concrete about it.

#

%/cp rather

vast bobcat
#

4% per CP i believe

#

used to be 5

icy mango
#

Wonder if there's some breakpoint where it'd be efficient enough to build to a certain amount of cp to nb, then building up to max cp for a full duration empowered nb

#

Also, would refreshing an empowered nb with a normal nb cancel out the empowered nb damage? F

#

?*

vast bobcat
#

i think so? but i havent test it to be certain

torn flume

with legendary boots and 6/6 energetic stabbign relics

#

do you have enough energy to cast symbols of death with most of the shadow dances

#

i mean shadow strikes

#

since it auto crits and not on the gcd

civic tapir
#

Any updates for tomorrows tuning patch for aganizing poison vs exsang?

manic pulsar
#

What do you mean

civic tapir
#

like whats better for assn

#

come tomorrow

static totem
#

not the channel to ask

manic pulsar
#

You can sim it

#

That's the best answer I can give ^^

tame pulsar
#

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I've been simulating my character using simc and it's telling me that as outlaw, haste is number one stat, even with alacrity running. Every other source is saying it's a terrible stat.

torn flume
#

skasch could you see working in symbols of death with most shadow strike casts with leg boots and 6/6 energetic stabbings

#

or you still don't have enough energy

manic pulsar
#

Because every other source is wrong

tame pulsar
#

The only time haste starts to become less valuable is when I get around 20% haste, or something like 6-6.5K rating.

manic pulsar
#

Yeah, that sounds correc

#

t

tame pulsar
#

Okay so I am not going crazy.

manic pulsar
#

No you're not, and SYOC ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

civic tapir
#

okay thanks ...

tame pulsar
#

I was testing out all kinds of gear yesterday and different haste percentages.

#

Thanks for the quick response, I appreciate it!

manic pulsar
#

@torn flume not sure I got your question.

#

Like, SoD > SwS everytime?

torn flume
#

not everytime, jsut as much as energy allows

manic pulsar
#

Hum, that doesn't sound really efficient

torn flume
#

off the gcd and auto crit, not sure how energy is with 6/6 stabbings and leg boots

manic pulsar
#

May be interesting in some very niche situations

torn flume
#

how is energy regen with both of those things

manic pulsar
#

@pseudo grove do you use SoD when you are about to cap energy to dump it?

torn flume
#

like with bloodlust boots and those traits i don't see how capping energy won't happen

hexed stone
#

Hi all, so I've started simming my own character, and am currently using the default action priority list provided by simcraft's default, are there any resources for updated APLs, specifically for outlaw?

Also in general, are the defaults in simcraft genearlly good enough to a worthwhile comparison to current in game raid fights, or are there some settings I can tweak to get more "accurate" readings?

outer rapids
#

I believe the most recent APLs get pushed to newest updates of SimC

hexed stone
#

Oh, that's good to know

outer rapids
#

but of course there might be other people who are doing edits to APL and not posting them anywhere

#

Anything shared here in discord is probably updated in the APL if the right people hear of anything good to add.

hexed stone
#

Got it.

chrome sun
#

when skasch, aethys or I come across community-sourced APL changes that improve upon the default, we generally have them incorporated in the next nightly

#

the defaults are the current state-of-the-art

outer rapids
#

DFA right now is simming higher for me for ST ;_;

#

I dont want to play DfA

tacit lotus
#

Anyone know if the sims used on the 3 specs in Mythic and Heroic gear had Assass with Agonizing performing better in later gear?

#

Pretty sure the one listed as just Assassination is Agonizing

glacial whale
#

skasch so i actually should trust simc and regem haste?

acoustic lake
#

I wouldn't regem haste personally. You're much more likely to gain haste from gear upgrade than gain versatility

#

If haste is simming highest for you right now you should make choices on gear that increase your haste in lieu of other stats when you have the opportunity

#

(I assumed you were talking about outlaw)

glacial whale
#

(I was)

#

thanks!

toxic root
#

Whats the stat values for outlaw? i simd but its saying crit is ahead of versa?L ol

glacial whale
#

as far as I know those are the correct weights for your gear

#

they might just feel weird because everyones mentioning vers/crit as highest

acoustic lake
#

Stat weights are personal to your gear. When you have a lot of versatility but not much crit, a 1% increase in crit will give you more damage than a 1% increase in vers, so crit > vers

strong iris
#

wait is haste a good stat now?

lilac grove
#

Read what Kiwi said above

strong iris
#

but surely some will scale better than others?

split sun
#

for mythics+ is assassin still a viable choice?

#

or is outlaw AOE too good, and assassin mythic+ gets outshined hard?

frozen brook
split sun
#

sorry!

strong iris
#

this is probably too simple for theory crafting then, but how are stat weightings determined?

pseudo grove
#

basically @strong iris

#

it make the difference in your dps based on + - a delta

#

like, when you have X, Y, Z, A ratings

#

it will do, X+D, Y, Z, A sim

#

then, X, Y+D, Z, A sim

#

etc...

#

and shows you what seems to increase your dps

#

and weight it

#

this is why, it is very unstable and a short term approximation

strong iris
#

can i calculate that with simc?

manic bramble
#

Yeah, if you go into the options and enable scaling

I'll have to write some javascript code to make it efficient tho

boreal rune
#

Working for me on chrome

manic bramble
#

Yeah works for me just fine

pseudo grove
#

so :

#

what we can extract from this

#

is that Mastery is the best stat for Assn & Sub

#

with Sub you want to go Versa as 2nd stat

#

while with Assn you want Crit

manic bramble
#

So I want 0 haste as Assassination?

pseudo grove
#

then the complementary for each (Crit/Versa)

#

and haste is garbage for both ๐Ÿ˜„

#

altough, it's single target only

#

and with talents used on spreadsheet

#

sweet repartition is shown as the green point

#

but the important thing isn't this point

#

but the area around this point

manic bramble
#

it's cool

pseudo grove
#

I'm uploading 2 targets atm

#

acoustic lake
#

yeah looks the same

pseudo grove

ok fine then

#

do you think it's better to do :

or check dps with like a set of different items that i have in my bag

#

kk

torn flume
#

@pseudo grove

#

could you see sub using symbols of death just for the 100% crit on ss

#

with legendary boots, lust and 6/6 energetic stabbings i don't see energy being a problem, but yea haven't gotten to actually play that

pseudo grove
#

as a baseline rule no, but when near energy capping yes it might be

torn flume
#

would be pretty nice to have 100% crits on shadow strike

outer rapids
#

Is it realistic to include legendaries in the T19M sims? The Sub one is so powerful. The specs are a a lot closer if you remove them. It does not seem likely that you could reliably get that specific legendary to help the spec, i.e. sub and boot and ring for Outlaw and Assn.

pseudo grove
#

I know but that's the SimC Default Profile Rule

outer rapids
#

Ah yeah standard

pseudo grove
#

added 2T

#

should I split files by spec

#

or targets ?

#

because 12 graphs will be too much (file size)

open lantern
#

"spawn_of_serpentrix could not spawn a pet, increase the count" get this when simming, does it change anything?

open lantern

๐Ÿ˜ฎ

boreal rune
#

@pseudo grove just FYI I'm getting 500 Error trying to access the plotting graphs

pseudo grove
#

yeah

#

I split by specs

boreal rune
#

Ah ok thanks

strong iris
#

so are we saying sub is going to be viable now?

pseudo grove
#

@strong iris

vernal badge
#

Perhaps Symbols should be refreshed just prior to nightblades so it is not used during the duration of SB?

#

shadowblades*

rancid robin
#

Do we have numbers on how the Assasination changes are shifting the stat priority?

acoustic lake
#

If you go to http://simc.aethys.eu/ you can see some 4d plots for each spec with the hotfixes. These plots show ideal stat splits. For example, if you get 20k stats at t19m (I don't know how many stats you'll actually have), you'd want to have 8000 crit, 9000 mastery, 3000 vers and 0 haste to maximise your single target dps

#

Stat splits is the best sims can give you, stat priorities are personal to your own gear

#

If your gear has 0 crit and 5000 vers obviously crit > vers, where for someone else they might have 5k crit and 0 vers and therefore prefer vers

rancid robin
#

thanks!

#

is the assas plot there with exsang or ago?

acoustic lake
#

ago

pseudo grove
#

nice explanation @acoustic lake ๐Ÿ˜„

#

also keep in mind it's not as precise as it seems

#

I mean, it can be wrong up to 10% for the sweet point (mostly 5%)

#

and within those 5%, it can shift a lot

#

(like, it takes 5% more while it only need 1% to "reach a breakpoint" for example)

#

also, it's pretty tied to the gear used (trinkets, legs effect, set bonuses (but not the case here), ...)

#

since there is no addon channel

#

does someone have Finality Nightblade infos in combatlog ?

#

it looks like it is not triggered there

#

so no AURA_APPLIED, ...

fathom bramble
#

thought you reported it when you fixed simc?

finite lily
#

Is there a minimum haste I should be aiming for as outlaw rogue?

white trail
#

@pseudo grove I think the only way is to check buff when you cast nightblade

fathom bramble
#

you don't get the buff instantly

white trail
#

I dropped that idea to store dots when you said uptime shift doesn't do much

pseudo grove
#

@fathom bramble yes but it's not fixed XD

#

I did the handler

#

it's working

#

it's for my addon but I can make a self WA for this

#

#

Can someone please help me with outlaw stat weights, should i follow sim results 100%? because I have been hearing a lot about mastery being the worst, to skiip it altogether and having 10% haste or 16% haste.

my sim results are showing mastery as the ebst and versatility and criit as the worst

white trail
#

You should always trust your own sims because results are gear-dependant

sick estuary
#

so i shoukld stack amstery?

#

at the expense of vers and crit?

acoustic lake
#

How many points do you have in your weapon

sick estuary
#

21

acoustic lake
#

in that case

#

I wouldn't expect mastery to ever be better than another stat for outlaw

#

I would check the settings to make sure you've done the sim right

severe cradle
#

You think that maybe relics push mastery up?

main perch
#

better ilvl relics=more mastery ...

brazen tartan
#

so, based on recent sims it looks like subtlety is looking pretty strong at heroic to mythic gear levels, do you guys think it will perform well in practice or is it maybe worth sticking with outlaw?

pseudo grove
brazen tartan
#

why is that not valid for the theorycrafting channel?

bold fulcrum
#

theorycrafting is more about data than asking questions

#

try other channels first ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

brazen tartan
#

im just wondering if those results are to be trusted or if they only work with just the right gear

untold laurel
#

sub scales better, ilvl matters a lot more iirc

ember wigeon
#

it's just sub mastery

severe cradle
#

Combination of Sub mastery, weapon-damage scaling and no stat being superbad for sub. // Edit: Apparently haste is super bad. I learnt :x

acoustic lake
#

well haste is super bad

hybrid leaf
#

haste is awfull for sub ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

at least in my sims

severe cradle
#

is it now? my bad then

acoustic lake
#

ideally you would have 0% haste

#

But this is somewhat dependent on traits

#

If you have a lot of energetic stabbing relics haste is less valued

mystic wraith
#

seems like the gold traits make a lot of the damage sub does as well? those sims have a fully complete artifact

#

soul rip and finality must contribute a hefty amount

wanton sand
#

where can I find the single/two trinkets bis list?

ember wigeon
#

not sure why, but I have simmed haste as #1 in the past

#

as sub

#

at least last week

severe cradle
#

Was that on Shadowcraft? If so, Shadowcraft currently has a bug or something going, that bloats the value of haste for sub.

ember wigeon
#

no simc

#

using scale factors

severe cradle
#

hmm

#

Someone more adept with simc has to help here i guess. I can only guess. But that discussion is maybe better done in #228878985210101760

wicked lark
#

it's also the sub legendary boots

#

which are included in the mythic profile

#

biggest gain out of all legendaries for the 3 specs

ember wigeon
#

can't wait to drop them ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

acoustic lake
#

Well last week doesn't have much to do with this week post hotfixes

wicked lark
#

will it ever happen though ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

acoustic lake
#

and yes, the boots would change the value of haste as well

ember wigeon
#

can't wait for wednesday ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

zealous compass
#

So there are no haste breakpoints in Legion as there was in WoD for sub @acoustic lake ?

#

I am thinking about the ones affecting your swing-timer essentially making you enter / exit subterfuge at better / worse moments

untold laurel
#

Kiwi - question though, how do I see what trinkets/gear were used for sub?

#

Especially trinkets I'm curious, since ursoc trinket must suck for sub due to big haste

#

esp after this patch where haste goes down in value even more so

#

I know this is the TC channel, more math oriented. But I'd like to be able to figure out what input you guys used in order to get the results

mystic wraith
#

"Local Trinket1 Bloodthirsty Instinct
ilevel: 880, stats: { +1631 Agi }
Local Trinket2 Unstable Arcanocrystal
ilevel: 860, stats: { +807 Vers, +807 Mastery, +807 Crit, +807 Haste }"

#

thats the mythic from the one he posted

summer finch
#

The 4D plotting for outlaw values crit very low, with the best distributions at 25% haste, 5% crit and 60% versa Oo?

brazen tartan
slate swan
#

so outlaw has no legends to compensate?

brazen tartan
#

apparently none on the level of the boots for sub

untold laurel
#

I guess the boots make haste even more obsolete for sub

hybrid leaf
#

i'm wondering how the simc is calculating the % bonus on boots... all shadowstrikes on max distance?

brazen tartan
#

probably just max melee range, unless its bugged or something

hybrid leaf
#

wouldn't be that easy to "navigate" all of them on max distance in that short shadowdance window..

brazen tartan
#

true, but its only 1 extra energy per 2 yards with 10 base

#

so distance doesnt matter all that much

zealous compass
#

I assume that the distance used is the distance from "edge of hitbox to edge of hitbox"

#

and not "center of hitbox to center of hitbox"

manic pulsar
#

All SwS are giving 12 energy

#

In simc

#

If that did not change

ember wigeon
#

@manic pulsar do you know the procrate of terrorbound on simc?

manic pulsar
#

I really don't know

brazen tartan
#

so the legendary boots alone add like 40k dps compared to the "average" legendary

#

which means subtlety not terribly far ahead unless you happen to get the boots

ember wigeon
#

seems ok to me

brazen tartan
#

yeah im probably sticking with outlaw knowing that, I wanted to be sure subtlety was gonna be amazing before I committed to switching artifacts but its not worth the gamble at this point

slate swan
#

@brazen tartan what are the differences between the 2 sin specs?

brazen tartan
#

not completely sure other than "Exsg" uses exsanguinate and the other doesnt

unreal sapphire
#

hm okay, thanks

brazen tartan
#

not sure how that changes the rotation but thats the key difference

strong iris
#

how do I change potion in simc?

fathom bramble
#

you would need to change the APL

Subtlety I assume.

brazen tartan

yeah has to be

strong iris
#

can someone explain to me, why sub is now the best?

pseudo grove
#

lol @signal vortex ๐Ÿ˜„

#

yes ti's Sub

#

I'm still figuring

#

but it seems that SoD usage while being almost energy capped is good

#

but only when u're really near the cap

#

best results are

timetomax<0.25

#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

I'll test =0 to see

signal vortex
#

Interesting.

pseudo grove
#

I'll need to adjust to energic stabbing & leg btw

#

<0.25 is better

twin moth
#

How did you get so high?

#

How do you guys test your rotations? Is there an addon which records and then analyzes?

white trail
#

@brazen tartan how sub without legendary is higher than with?

#

Or t19m has boots equipped?

brazen tartan
#

which thing are you looking at?

tacit moss
#

Do we have a number of traits/gear where subtlety gets better than assass ST,

plush relic
#

dont need traits/gear to do that

white trail
#

With subtlety insignia and subtlety denial as 2nd and 3rd rows respectively

tacit moss
#

To go sub? Yes you do

plush relic
#

to beat mut? no

#

assuming they are both the same geared and around the same progress in artifact

tacit moss
#

How exactly? So no gear and no traits beats assassination at 21 traits and 860 gear?

plush relic
#

no ofc, but no specific

tacit moss
#

Well considering the fact that most people went outlaw, rest went assass, there's gonna be a drop of point that if you don't have it, it's pointless going sub yet

#

Changing over first week of mythic for me is a DPS loss

tough goblet
#

Guys how bad is haste for Outlaw? Is 0% the ideal?

plush relic
#

I had the feelings most people went outlaw/sub, I did

severe cradle
#

Outlaw / Sub ftw

tacit moss
#

I went all 3

severe cradle
#

@tough goblet Haste is good for outlaw. MAstery is bad

plush relic
#

yeah tbh I did that too, but my a bit more in those 2

severe cradle
#

well, good

wicked lark
#

I guess u need at least the second golden

severe cradle
#

to a certain point

tacit moss
#

Still doesn't answer the question though,

wicked lark
#

my sub is still simming ~35k below outlaw

#

and don't forget, sin will be quite high in current gear

#

hard to beat it right now I guess

tacit moss
#

My sub is 50k below assass lol

#

Assass beats sub heroic though

severe cradle
tacit moss
#

Right?

wicked lark
#

yes

brazen tartan
wicked lark
#

I would expect sub to take over with 2 golden and ~870 gear, earlier if u got lucky with the boots

brazen tartan
#

so sub goes from 10% ahead of outlaw and ~13% ahead of sin to 7.5% ahead of both when you avearge all legendaries instead of just taking the best ones

white trail
#

@tacit moss I think there is no universal answer to that. What you can do, I think, is to calculate for yourself how much AP you need to make sub > Assa. Because every point you will spend on Sub will be lost for Assassination and vice versa

wicked lark
#

I guess that's kinda the problem with assa right now - if u are sticking with outlaw u are not losing much because the later traits suck

brazen tartan
#

yeah good point

#

the other tricky thing is deciding what spec you want to gamble your legendary on.. I think I might set loot spec to sub and hope for either the boots or at least a shared legendary

Are there numbers that show the difference between going top route to Akaari vs going bottom route to Finality?

#

Not sure why it's suggested to go bottow if Sub is your OS, but top if it's your MS

pseudo grove
#

it all depends

#

if u want to be a feral

#

or a windwalker

#

and I already replied to that multiple times, I should pin it or add it somewhere

pseudo grove
#

the leg boot half the waiting time

it's impressive

it's relatively the same dps gain as Archi Trinket

for reference

#

but way more rare >-<

plush relic
#

just to be sure, you're talking about the energy reg thingy right?

pseudo grove
#

yeah

ember wigeon
#

how much energy gain is it ?

#

compared to say MoS

north flower
#

Is there a graph that shows damage scalining for Shadowstrike, Nightblade and Eviscerate with a linear stats increase?

#

I'm talking about the damage per cast, not damage distribution.

acoustic lake
#

I doubt something like that exists @north flower

north flower
#

I'd need need to know how Agility and secondaries scale with item level and than calcolate for various item levels with the formula of each of the three spells.

#

@acoustic lake Is there a page with the formulas of each Subtlety Rogue spell? Plus modifiers (like Master of Subtlety and Symbols of Death).

rain lance
#

Check the AMR theorycrafting wiki, it is a good resource

north flower
#

Nice. Thank you. Does it include a budget scaling for ilvl -> Primary/Secondary Stats?

rain lance
#

I'm not sure, I don't think so

acoustic lake
#

@north flower iirc there is an interesting way that secondary stat ratings work in legion that makes their contribution to percentage gains inversely scale with ilvl, let me see if I can find it real quick

rain lance
#

You can extract the table from the simc dbc

warped monolith
#

Hey i would really like to see the mythic gear dps across all three spec without BiS legendary... Can I just take the profiles atheys ran with, replace the legendary with other piece in the profiles and ran them in the most recent version of simc or I'm missing something. Not super good with simc. Thanks.

acoustic lake
#

This table here right?

rain lance
#

Yeah Keladar you should be able to do that

#

yeah that one

warped monolith
#

Thanks

idle hull
#

hello im looking at my outlaw apl in simc and i see that it chooses to use a ss at 5cp for 6 cp rt and i thought the consesnus was to not do that due to over vp generation

rain lance
#

feel free to sim it for yourself to check but simc apls in general reflect best known rotations

hardy flower
#

anyone know how differents bleeds affect a target ? do they tick at the same moment or not ? i'm asking this because of the passive energy regen from assassination, when you have a bleed that tick on poisoned target.

rain lance
#

Rupture ticks every 2 seconds, garotte ticks every 3

fathom bramble
#

but they won't all tick at the same time on multiple targets, because depends when you applied them

hardy flower
#

yes but I trust more this place

#

thank you very much ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

unreal badge
#

is the latest daily build of simc updated with the hotfix changes?

hybrid leaf
#

@pseudo grove Question related to Finalty. If i choose the Deeper Strategem Talent, do i need to Finish with 6 CPs? If i choose to play deeper strategem, does it pay out to always go for 6cp even if i waste a cp, just to get the finalty bonus?
5+ would be good, for deeper strategem
because, if i need to always aim for 6, i'll waste a few cps for sure? thx in advance

ember wigeon
#

5+ is good

hybrid leaf
#

"5+ is good" means, yes finalty procs with 5? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

ember wigeon
#

yes

hybrid leaf
#

well, i am at work, can't test myself atm

#

but i am just wondering

ember wigeon
#

the apl finish at 5+

hybrid leaf
#

thx @ember wigeon

ember wigeon
#

from what I remember

hybrid leaf
#

\o/

#

would make it more comfortable, too...playing with deeper strategem then

acoustic lake
#

The simc apl will do a 6 point finisher always

#

unless you either need to reroll the bones, in which case it will do 5 or 6 point

#

or you have broadsides or jolly roger, in which case it will do a 5 or 6 point

#

If you have both buffs, it will still do 5 or 6

hybrid leaf
#

@acoustic lake "finalty" is the sub golden trait.

acoustic lake
#

Oh

hybrid leaf
#

does it work the same there in the apl?

acoustic lake
#

sorry guess I'm too tired to read tonight

#

I can check, one sec

hybrid leaf
#

no worries m8

#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

thx ๐Ÿ˜„

acoustic lake
#

I haven't checked how finality works in game myself but I believe someone mentioned that it gives a % buff to your next finisher depending on how many combo points you used for the previous finisher

#

which would lead to favouring 6 cp finishers

hybrid leaf
#

yeah

#

that's what i was wondering

#

oh wait, my bad i guess

#

it doesn't seem to need full CPs

#

if i intepret the tooltip right

outer rapids
#

Kiwi idk if thats correct. APL says to use finisher if ss.variable is not available. ss.variable says that it will use ss if <4 CPs. Meaning that if its at 5 CPs it always uses a finisher.

#

err ss_useable*

fathom bramble
#

Finality gives you +4%dmg on next finisher per CP used

acoustic lake
#

Can you copy paste that line Kazkek

hybrid leaf
#

aaaaaah, thx riff... my bad...sorry for the confusion

acoustic lake
#

Might have changed since I last read it

outer rapids
#

variable,name=ss_useable,value=(talent.anticipation.enabled&combo_points<4)|(!talent.anticipation.enabled&((variable.rtb_reroll&combo_points<4+talent.deeper_stratagem.enabled)|(!variable.rtb_reroll&variable.ss_useable_noreroll)))

acoustic lake
#

anyway, looking at the APL for sub, it will use a finisher at 5+

fathom bramble
#

so 5CP finisher would give +20% dmg, 6 CP would give +24%

#

sub is always >=5

acoustic lake
#

actions+=/call_action_list,name=finish,if=combo_points>=5|(combo_points>=4&spell_targets.shuriken_storm>=3&spell_targets.shuriken_storm<=4)

#

Not sure the reasoning for the shuriken storm parts

fathom bramble
#

probably small NB's

#

as full NB's probably not worth it on many mobs

#

wait, that doesn't make sense

#

spell_targets >=3 & spell_targets <= 4

acoustic lake
#

mhm

fathom bramble
#

@pseudo grove ping

outer rapids
#

3 or 4

#

not 5?

acoustic lake
#

what does spell_targets.shuriken storm even return

outer rapids
#

How many tagets shuriken will hit if cast

acoustic lake
#

1 if theres targets to shuriken storm or number of targets

fathom bramble
#

the number of targets it would hit I think

acoustic lake
#

@outer rapids actions+=/variable,name=ss_useable_noreroll,value=(combo_points<5+talent.deeper_stratagem.enabled-(buff.broadsides.up|buff.jolly_roger.up)-(talent.alacrity.enabled&buff.alacrity.stack<=4))

#

you need this part as well to see when it will finish for outlaw

outer rapids
#

it only does finishers with the other variable

#

call_action_list,name=finish,if=!variable.ss_useable

acoustic lake
#

Ignoring the alacrity part because I couldn't actually work out the reasoning for this either, ss_useable_noreroll is 1 when combo_points is less than 6 if deeper strat and less than 5 if deeper strat and buff.broadsides and deeper strat

#

ss_useable uses ss_useable_noreroll

#

right at the end

#

the last or

outer rapids
#

ss_noreroll is only used for DfA

#

oh oh

#

I didnt see that at the end of the ss_useable

acoustic lake
#

yeah, that part at the end is the main condition really, thats the one you'd be evaluating when you are using run through

fathom bramble
#

@acoustic lake Aethys says it's a typo in that condition ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

pseudo grove
#

yes

#

I'll fix it

Is there a new relic spreadsheet up currently?

It looks like the wowhead tooltip for chrono shard is all kinds of or messed up it's listing impossible iterations such as 805 normal or 825 heroic and none of the different forms match the actual in-game values. Is there anyway to override the incorrect values?

#

I dont think those are incorrect its just the way items were designed in Legion.

#

Just use the proper bonus IDs for it

Looking at Aethys spreadsheet and for sin is agonizing poison better than exsanguinate

torn flume
#

In the t19 mythic profile with legendary boots how often does it cap on energy

#

Sub

high rapids
#

so in Shadow Dance, with the new buff to Shuriken Storm

#

is Shuriken Storm a dps increase over Shadow Strike on 2+ targets?

#

or does there need to be more than that

fathom bramble
#

yes

high rapids
#

yes to 2+ or yes to needing more than 2?

fathom bramble
#

let me check

high rapids
#

kk ty

fathom bramble
#

out of stealth/shadow dance

#

you use storm on >=2

#

and >=2 in stealth/shadow

high rapids
#

cool so storm is always a dps increase on 2+ targets in and out of stealth/dancE?

#

thansk

fathom bramble
#

yeh that's what the APL does

high rapids
#

that seems so weird to me

#

since storm crits for like, 150k on 2 targets, and strike crits for like 250k

#

(150k combined from the crits on both targets)

fathom bramble
#

but you get more CPs

high rapids
#

you get the samde

fathom bramble
#

and ShuStorm was buffed during ShD and Second Shuriken

high rapids
#

ah I don't have second shuriken yet

#

that could be the kicker

fathom bramble
#

yeh it also gets +200% dmg during ShD

high rapids
#

and Strike gives 2 CPs as well

#

with Premed talented

brisk saddle
#

what does that rtb_buffs<=1&!rtb_list.any.6 mean? less or equal 1 rtb buff and NOT any of the 6? Oo

high rapids
#

I think that means, <= 1 buff, and NOT all 6 buffs

#

i.e. telling you to reroll if you have 1 buff and NOT 6 buffs

#

but tht's just my guess ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

brisk saddle
#

well, that wouldnt make sense then...because <= 1 would take care of that, wopuldnt it? ๐Ÿ˜„

#

hence my confusion

acoustic lake
#

Not quite how that works

#

Basically what its saying is, reroll rtb if <= 1 buff and not shark + cds or not true bearing

#

Its just the APL code for reroll until 2 buffs or you have shark and cooldowns are available or you have true bearing by itself

#

But with lots of inverse statements to make it very confusing ๐Ÿ˜›

fathom bramble
#

APL wouldn't be an APL if it was readable

brisk saddle
#

but i still dont get this !rtb_list.any.6... ๐Ÿ˜„

acoustic lake
#

Additionally, you may use rtb_list expression to check for the presence of specific buffs on the actor. The expression takes the form rtb_list.OP.LIST, where OP is the operating mode and LIST is the list of buffs. The expression will return 0 if the evaluation fails, and 1 if it succeeds.

The OP accepts two values: any, meaning any of the buffs on LIST being up succeeds the evaluation, and all, meaning all of the buffs on LIST must be up to succeed the evaluation.
The LIST accepts a sequence of RTB buffs, represented by numerical values from 1 to 6. The numbers correspond to the six buffs in alphabetical order: 1: Broadsides, 2: Buried Treasure, 3: Grand Melee, 4: Jolly Roger, 5: Shark Infested Waters, 6: True Bearing

#

This is from the documentation

brisk saddle
#

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

alright

#

so you just put a number to each rtb buff and can just check if #6 up or not

#

that just seems uncessary coding xD not like a True_Bearing.down could have done it xD

acoustic lake
#

Although reading that it seems that the apl has a typo in it

#

its checking for true bearing and cds and using shark by itself instead of the other way around

#

unless ive confused myself with inverses

brisk saddle
#

xD

#

who wrote it?

acoustic lake
#

I think aethys is maintaining the outlaw apl

#

@pseudo grove

#

Maybe I'm wrong actually, will double check later

fathom bramble
#

either him or @manic pulsar

pseudo grove
#

@fathom bramble

#

you're wrong

#

we dont do Shuriken Storm like that during Shadow Dance

#

(or Stealth)

#

there is a + talent

#

and a + equipped

#

because the number of targets required increase if you have premed

#

and/or leg boots

manic pulsar
#

?

pseudo grove
#

and for outlaw

#

let me check

#

what you said

fathom bramble
#

I generalised, most people won't follow APL to the letter

manic pulsar
#

They should

pseudo grove
#

yes but that's a pretty big dps difference

#

for shuriken storm/shadowstrike

#

in aoe

manic pulsar
#

Because Aethys is always right

pseudo grove
#

this optimization is what made it "as nice" as otheres rogue specs there

#

lol skasch

manic pulsar
#

And I am always right unless Aethys says otherwise

tawny crown
#

when do you shuriken storm then? how many targets required?

fathom bramble
#

why is the premed check in the shuriken storm action?

pseudo grove
#

lol @manic pulsar XDDDDD

#

because premed give one more cp

#

making shadowstrike more worth than shuriken storm

fathom bramble
#

k

pseudo grove
#

if it's enabled

#

then it returns 1

fathom bramble
#

so with premed, >=3?

pseudo grove
#

then it add 1 enemy to prerequesite

stray forge
#

thats on 2 target?

fathom bramble
#

๐Ÿ‘

pseudo grove
#

yes

fathom bramble
#

and >=4 with boots too?

pseudo grove
#

or boot legs without premed is also >= 3

#

and both >= 4

#

yes

#

I tried energic stabbing & others traits

fathom bramble
#

or just yolo storm with cloak at >=29 stacks?

pseudo grove
#

but no combinations were as powerful as the talent or the boots

#

yes

#

I could add add events cd check

#

but that won't make a big difference

#

cloak since nerf is shitty

#

they should hav eleft it to 3k %

#

or make it stack faster

#

or less stacks

#

but more %

#

idk, there are 50 ways to improve it

cobalt torrent
#

only time u use shrikun storm single target is if you have leggy cloak with max stacks

pseudo grove
#

also cloack doesn't work on weaponmastered shuriken storm

#

yes @cobalt torrent

cobalt torrent
#

shit does 1.2 mil dmg single target for me right now

#

it's awesome lmao

pseudo grove
#

as good as nightblade

#

tbh

#

it's not as good as you think

#

in comparison to boots

#

or others

#

๐Ÿ˜‰

#

and for outlaw APL

#

yes I check the list

#

instead of the buff

#

even if there is only 1 buff in the list

cobalt torrent
#

well i have not been fortunate for the boots yet

pseudo grove
#

because it's way more flexible to do that

#

because atm it's like that, but when blizzard will yolo buff/nerf

#

it lets you adjust the APL easily

manic pulsar
#

MfD RT does almost as much damage

pseudo grove
#

MfD Evisc aswell

#

with enough mastery ๐Ÿ˜„

cobalt torrent
#

did simc update ?

manic pulsar
#

It isn't that impressive st

cobalt torrent

i mean to make a useless ability useful it is tbh

pseudo grove
#

this thing is like BtE tbh

#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

just 1 line in the APL but not really cool

cobalt torrent
#

1 max stack doing 1 mil dmg plus it's like have a trinket cd every min

pseudo grove
#

yes but in comparison to others legs it's shitty

#

that's my point

cobalt torrent
#

yeaaa but lets be honest who has more then 2 atm

acoustic lake
#

@pseudo grove Is this line functioning as it should

#

actions=variable,name=rtb_reroll,value=!talent.slice_and_dice.enabled&(rtb_buffs<=1&!rtb_list.any.6&((!buff.curse_of_the_dreadblades.up&!buff.adrenaline_rush.up)|!rtb_list.any.5))

#

because for me its a slight dps increase to remove the last part

#

&((!buff.curse_of_the_dreadblades.up&!buff.adrenaline_rush.up)|!rtb_list.any.5))

#

Can someone explain the "Blurred time" artifact trait from outlaws?

acoustic lake
#

thats just with the t19m outlaw profile

#

Blurred time is weird. The way it works is that all your cds have a shorter cd when you use adrenaline rush but they will go back to their longer cd afterwards. So mfd has 60 sec normally but during blurred time it will have a 51(?) second cd.

tough goblet
#

Does "Cooldowns recover 15% faster" mean during AR 1 second will be .75 milli seconds

torn flume
#

In the t19 mythic sub profile is it over capping energy or coming close

acoustic lake
#

So if mfd was at 60 seconds cd when you use AR it will be 51 seconds, then AR will last for 15 seconds giving you 36 seconds remaining on MFD. But after AR ends, it will adjust back to the usual 60 second cd and instead of 36 seconds remaining, you'll have 42 seconds remaining

#

So essentially all blurred time is doing for you is taking 3 seconds off your cds after 15 seconds of adrenaline rush

tough goblet
#

ok

#

that is

#

completely worthless

acoustic lake
#

Yes, its a 0.5% dps increase last I heard

tough goblet
#

Vs taking Fortun's boon which is 10 sec off adren rush

acoustic lake
#

Blurred time is more effective when something comes off cd during adrenaline rush because it doesn't experience the cd adjustment after adr ends

torn flume
#

Bring back assurance of consequence and put it there instead of bt

#

Maybe a little op

tough goblet
#

I argue this because every guide atm says take Black powder/blurred time before taking AR reduction fortune's boon

#

Which has to be incorrect. 3 points = 30 sec off AR is better than 3 points into Blackpower = 0 dps gain. Then 1 point into Blurred time

torn flume
#

@acoustic lake does the sub t19m profile cap energy during ki

#

Lust

acoustic lake
#

Not that I can see

torn flume
#

Even with boots 6/6 energetic stabbing

acoustic lake
#

Any excess energy can be spend on symbols if necessary, seeing as its off the gcd

torn flume
#

Yea that's what i was going to ask

acoustic lake
#

I think aethys said something like it was a dps increase to use symbols if in .25 seconds you're going to cap energy

torn flume
#

If you have enough energy to pair most ss with sod during lust

#

For 100% crit

acoustic lake
#

Sims are one thing practicality is another. In game I think you would be able to accurately judge whether you are going to cap energy

#

If you are, obviously its more ideal to spend energy on symbols rather than waste energy

torn flume
#

In dabs

#

Dance

#

Is only 5 globals anyway

#

You wing need to Cap to have excess energy will uou?

#

Wont

acoustic lake
#

mhm

#

sure you might not be able to spend all your energy in a dance

#

but that energy is better spent on more backstabs for more eviscerates so you can get back around to dancing rather than trying to spend as much energy as possible in a dance window by using symbols on cd

#

at least, as far as sims have shown thus far

#

perhaps something will come up that will change that idea

hybrid leaf
#

hmm... what does the "total 17" mean in the SIMC Results "Artifact Calculator (Wowhead.com)Purchased points: 13, total 17" ?

torn flume
#

Traits?

#

Even though it can't be 4

hybrid leaf
#

hmm

#

thats my sub result...@outlaw i get 19, total 21.

#

weird ๐Ÿ˜„

#

aaaaaaaah

#

i guess i get it, that's the bonus from relics

#

wait, no... i wouldn't get 13, total 17 then

#

is it possible to generate the "artifact= ..." string via wowhead artifact weapon calculator?

#

or any other tool

latent solstice
#

anyone have a link to trinket outlaw sim for multitarget (3+) fights?

oblique violet
#

Is Army just the better neck enchant now?

plucky birch
#

Problem with the messed up wowhead tooltips is that simc draws the info from those so in the sims it values the proc from a normal 840 mythic at ~ 6.5k+ haste where as the ingame proc is only ~4.4k haste

#

Kind of throws off any valuation

worldly nebula
#

@hybrid leaf, you can get the simc string from the "Link" menu on the wowhead calculator

digital sluice
#

What changed in last sims that outlow lost so much deps?

fair owl
#

Relics / trait nerfs

worldly crest
#

I am sorry,migth be a wrong channel,but simc seems not be able to sim March of the legion set

#

i cant set procs in damage done at all

plush relic
#

wait wtf

#

is this actually legit

hoary fable
#

almost never

unique carbon
#

MM cannot be lowest

#

It literally cannot >_>

lament grotto
#

You can run it yourself with default profiles and see.

unique carbon
#

Oh I can believe it'll be lowest on Simcraft

#

I won't believe that for some weird ass reason MM is down 80k DPS with a 20% nerf to Barrage

#

Or Blizz ninja nerfed them to oblivion

outer rapids
#

I dont get how in their previous rankings from yesterday outlway was about equal with exsang and now its so low. I go an sim myself with their newest build and Im literally the same dps as the build from sunday.

wild dune
#

Has anyone run assassination in mythics yet? Is the aoe better? or still trash.

outer rapids
#

Oh SimC's relic thing is broken

#

It doesnt have ranks for fatebringer or fate's thirst in those logs

#

from relic contributions

#

but it has the relics in their slots

bitter sonnet
#

When people are simcrafting, P stands for pre-raid. what ilvl is that looking at? also whta stats are they stacking?

outer rapids
#

840

#

They are stacking stats that are good for them at 840 in that gear

fair owl
#

@plush relic this is legit but the issue is that it isn't accounting for scaling

#

So while 840 exsang is high, it grows slower than others

chrome sun
#

@outer rapids - can you elaborate? "doesn't have ranks for fatebringer or fate's thirst in the logs" ?

#

so the profile has the relics in it?

outer rapids
#

Curse of the DreadbladesGreedHidden BladeBlade Dancer (Rank 3)Fate's Thirst (Rank 3)Gunslinger (Rank 1)Fatebringer (Rank 3)Fortune Strikes (Rank 3)Ghostly Shell (Rank 3)Cursed Edges

outer rapids
#

It doesnt have the 3+2 and the 3+1

chrome sun
#

huh.

outer rapids
#

Yeah its equipped

#

The gear has it

chrome sun
#

no, i see it now

outer rapids
#

I dont think its a bug though because its only on the default profile

#

When I sim myself its okay

chrome sun
#

that's a bug to me ๐Ÿ˜„

#

will investigate, thanks

#

๐Ÿ‘

outer rapids
#

Well I mean like I import myself and iit works correctly

#

Curse of the Dreadblades Greed Deception Hidden Blade Blade Dancer (Rank 3 + 1) Fate's Thirst (Rank 5) from imported gear

chrome sun
#

yep.

outer rapids
#

anyway thanks for looking into it ^^

pseudo grove
#

@everyone May someone make screenshot the Fatebringer et Fate's Thirst traits post hotfix (so US Only) and send it to me (or post it in here please ) ? Thanks in advance

#

looks like Blizzard fucked something for pirates !

torn flume
#

What was messed up

pseudo grove
#

well, until I got a screenshot it's hard to say

#

but client data says fatebringer & fate's thirst are set to 0%

#

which is weird

shrewd pasture
#

There seem to be a handful of hotfix related bugs

outer rapids
#

Im an unlucky sob who cant get a fatebringer relic to drop

pseudo grove
#

thanks @outer rapids

cobalt torrent
#

so is it safe to say for the progression of the xpac stick with outlaw and sub

static totem
#

idk, is this the right channel to ask?

#

wait, no its not

cobalt torrent

This is a more numbers and maths channel

What is 2 + 2

frozen brook
#

@pseudo grove just wondering if the latest nightly build pushes outlaw dps down further? i was simming like 10k higher with lesser gear with like 1-2 previous build. thought maybe i did something wrong somewhere

pseudo grove
#

yes

#

because

#

there is an issue with artifact

frozen brook
#

ah ok that explains it

shut agate
#

I got the Sephuz's Secret earlier today and was wondering, is it actually a dps gain to use BtE every 30 sec to proc it if there are stunnable adds in a fight?

strong surge
#

Gouge should be better

#

with dirty tricks

shut agate
#

oh yeah good idea, Prey on the Weak is pretty crap for outlaw anyways if it doesn't affect BtE

pure fable
#

Are there updated relic spreadsheets with hotfixes

glass dove
#

one quick question, is the talant vigor good?

#

or should i continue with stratagem?

slim river
#

@glass dove that's shown in the faq channel. Also, if it wasn't, this channel is about the mathematics. Your question is more likely answered in general or simple questions. However, the answer is in the guides and spreadsheets already posted

chrome sun
#

hey, just wanted to note

#

navv rolled back an .adb update

#

so simc's latest commit is working with outlaw artifact relics again
