toxic crypt
#

let me check it now

split sorrel
#

I think it's 1+2

split narwhal
#

Yes that was the 4 minute vanish, on 2 minute it had no garrote

split sorrel
#

but it's weird

toxic crypt
#

thanks aethys so i would assume that Nightstalker is the go to option now?

split sorrel
#

garrote recast during vanish

#

is worth only if you don't have to delay vanish

#

but

#

it depends on what garrote cd is

#

it's hard to optimize

split narwhal
#

Okay

split sorrel
#

you can play both

#

they are very close tbh

#

depends on ur skill

toxic crypt
#

okay confirmed its 3 CP

#

you want me to stream for a while to check it

#

?

split sorrel
#

no I just checked it

#

but it's weird since

#

ok muti is MH + OH

#

but both generate CP

#

KBs generate CP on the MH strike only

#

that's why

#

but guess what

#

another bug

toxic crypt
#

shhh πŸ˜›

#

it was like this from way before

split sorrel
#

way before ?

#

maybe, I play Assa just since some days

#

it's probably here since 7.1

#

when they added CP to KB

toxic crypt
#

when the shoulders was out i mean

#

yeh

split sorrel
#

it works even without shoulders

split narwhal
#

So how do we get 3CP from KB if it only crits with one Weapon

split sorrel
#

it's just seal fate working on both hit

#

while only the first gives cp normally

toxic crypt
#

ah i see

#

its 2 + 1

#

with mantle buff

split narwhal
#

Oh i see

split sorrel
#

no

#

it's 1 + 1 + 1

#

1 from KB

toxic crypt
#

is it?

split sorrel
#

1 from Seal fate on MH

#

1 from Seal fate on OH

toxic crypt
#

oh ok

split sorrel
#

πŸ˜‰

toxic crypt
#

πŸ‘

split narwhal
#

So aethys the Apl is currently using vanish as close to CD as possible Not worrying for Garrote CD?

#

As long as we have enough Energy

split sorrel
#

mantle or not ?

#

actions.cds+=/vanish,if=talent.subterfuge.enabled&equipped.mantle_of_the_master_assassin&(debuff.vendetta.up|target.time_to_die<10)&mantle_duration=0

#

this is with mantle

#

so it just sync with vendetta, doesn't matter what the state of garrote is

north parrot
#

Should it sync with last 6 of KB?

split sorrel
#

not a gain according to simc

#

but

#

APL isn't perfect yet

#

just better

#

I'll need more time on the addon to see what it does on live

#

to see how I can improve it

#

πŸ˜ƒ

#

When you see something weird, just mention me and I'll take a look πŸ˜‰

ember radish
#

Is shoulders still bis for assa rogues?

rotund nest
#

yes

#

with boots

crimson pawn
#

but with the new golden trait bracers become better then boots, dont they?

wind lotus
#

Funny: bracers/boots - new golden trait, between alacrity and ap the ST difference is only 20k dps for me (favouring ap of course). according to simc

dark obsidian
#

@split sorrel Do you have any APL changes that arent in the nightly from last night? Can I just go to ur github page every day to get the most fresh/recent updates?

split sorrel
#

yes

#

I just updated it

#

aha

#

the github page isn't mine, it's the one from simc

dark obsidian
#

but the updates u just did is on there?

split sorrel
#

I pushed it

#

there is the feed on simcminmax discord

#

if u want to see live update

dark obsidian
#

ok, so it should be this one right?

#

says updated 9mins ago

split sorrel
#

y

radiant dust
#

is it just me or amr didnt update for the shoulders nerf?

maiden cargo
#

Hey ! Im curious with HIGH ILVL PROCS , Should I GET ARCWAY Boenus 3k mastery

  • 4 set from nighthold for sin
pure condor
#

@split sorrel im not sure if youve fixed it already but using the latest nightly (not github) the apl casts the first vanish at 39s (without shoulders and running ns)

split sorrel
#

@pure condor

#

this is what I have

#

for no leggo profile with ns

#

gimme ur profile pls

pure condor
#

how`:D

split sorrel
#

save the report

#

in html

#

and put it here

pure condor
#

how do i do that

#

nvm found

split sorrel
#

interesting

#

hmm

#

it's because it waits a rupture refresh

pure condor
#

in that log it actually doesnt really matter since it still casts vanish 3 times in 6 minutes

split sorrel
#

maybe I should force the rupture override here

#

or just let envenom with 4pc

pure condor
#

but when i set it to 5 minutes the last vanish gets cast at 4:40 so it loses some duratiuon

strong path
#

Is simc/pawn accurate now?

split sorrel
#

idk about pawn

#

simc is getting better yes.

strong path
#

How would you suggest right now getting correct stat weight @split sorrel

#

Got gear upgrades

pure condor
#

aethys why isnt it doing garrote rupt mut mut vanish rupt ? since that was what the old apl was doing

strong path
#

For*

split sorrel
#

I don't use stat weight

#

I sim gear directly

#

stat weight isn't accurate at all

#

@pure condor I'm changing it right now

pure condor
#

kk thx alot

split sorrel
#

I force a rupture duration override if there is vendetta

#

which is the case on pull πŸ˜„

#

because it's more flexible than just time<x

pure condor
#

is that first mut worth it ?

split sorrel
#

to make it last longer yes

#

since it's a 3cp+ one

pure condor
#

ye but when its 5 cp and you instantly vanish refresh is feels like a waste

#

feelycraft tho

split sorrel
#

yes

#

that's why

#

you do a 3cp into a 5cp

pure condor
#

well garrote mut can be 5cp into 5cp

split sorrel
#

yes

#

but my condition is >= 3

#

and 1cp rupture isn't worth

strong quest
#

@split sorrel in the APL for subterfuge, it doesnt reapply garrote after vanish?

split sorrel
#

can't predict the 2 or 4cp muti

strong quest
#

or did I read wrong

split sorrel
#

it will in next update @strong quest

#

part of my optimization today

strong quest
#

okay

#

but mine still sims 6k higher

#

than NS

pure condor
#

have you tried 2>= ? when the opener garrote crits

strong quest
#

does that mean it would sim even higher u think?

north parrot
#

Garrote can't crit for 2cp

pure condor
#

yea just remembered

split sorrel
north parrot
#

lol

split sorrel
#

this is opener for mantle with subter

#

@strong quest

#

@pure condor garrote cannot generate 2cp

#

@strong quest yes it'll probably sim even higher πŸ˜›

north parrot
#

So now we're to garrote kb again, but it's right this time

#

Interesting

split sorrel
#

it's with Sinister

#

ofc

#

the golden

#

without it's not the same opener

#

tbh APL is gonna be really good

#

just see the sample sequence

#

I'm trying to optimize all possible openers

#

(depending on talents & artifact traits)

strong quest
#

@split sorrel yeah i know, im simming 6k higher with subterfuge than with NS with shoulders and boots, and im curious of which one to go, but if u say it will sim even higher with new apl i guess its a no brainer

split sorrel
#

NS was bugged in simc until some days ago

#

that's why

#

subterfuge is good after all πŸ˜„

#

remember, vanish is a 2min cd

#

so you empower a GCD each 2mins

pure condor
#

aethys just a minor thing but why isnt it using the gnawed thumb ring for dos? (or as soon as kingsbane has 12s left) ?

split sorrel
#

not the biggest deal ever

errant tinsel
#

so its garrote into kingsbane now with the golden?

strong quest
#

@split sorrel still 6k πŸ˜ƒ

#

@split sorrel also, it doesnt reaply garrote after first vanish

#

is that intented or not?

split sorrel
#

it'll @strong quest

#

in next update

strong quest
#

yeah i mean the first vanish

#

not the 2nd

split sorrel
#

@pure condor gnawed thumb ring not really optimized

strong quest
#

idk if its optimal to refresh it

#

in the first vanish

split sorrel
#

yes it is

#

on the 3rd gcd

strong quest
#

3rd?

#

i think im speaking about the 2nd

urban wasp
#

he said 3rd gcd, not vanish

pure condor
#

is it intended to only use the pandemic for vanish rupture if first rupture wasnt 5cp ?

#

in opener

strong quest
#

so this is optiaml?

#

using garrote right after

split sorrel
#

yes

#

it is

strong quest
#

kk

split sorrel
#

garrote as 3rd gcd

#

since subter is 3s

strong quest
#

idk what that means

#

tbh

#

xD

#

im noob

split sorrel
#

you vanish

#

you use 2 gcd

#

and the 3rd one

#

you garrote

strong quest
#

ah ok

#

so 1st gcd=evn, 2nc=muti

#

3rd garrote

split sorrel
#

in ur screen y

strong quest
#

yy gotcha

#

also

#

lets say vanish is of cooldown

#

but garrote has 10 sec left

#

is it worth waiting+

#

?

#

i guess yeah

split sorrel
#

you don't delay vanish for garrote

pure condor
#

aethys was your "yes it is" for my question or for bqts "this is optimal?" ?

split sorrel
#

and you can override your garrote if it got less than 10 or 11s

#

with subterfuge

#

no was for BQT

#

and yes it is

#

for you also

pure condor
#

kk

split sorrel
#

duration is decided by your cast

#

not the rupture ongoing

#

let me show you :

#
RuptureThreshold = (4 + Player:ComboPoints() * 4) * 0.3;```
#

this is what I do in my addon to define Rupture Pandemic Threshold

pure condor
#

no i meant

split sorrel
#

as you can see, it depends on your current CP

autumn jungle
#

Now is that opener for shoulders/boots/dos?

split sorrel
#

not the one used for the ongoing rupture

pure condor
#

opener is gar mut rup mut mut rupt (for instance)

split sorrel
#

@autumn jungle just do the simc one if you're unsure

#

with latest APL

pure condor
#

or it is gar mut vanish rup if you are already at 5 cp

#

with the apl

split sorrel
#

always the first

autumn jungle
#

Currently using old opener pre 7.2 with boots/bracers/dos/cof

#

Seems like I'm energy starved a lot even with pooling can only keep sot up for two envenoms

pure condor
#

but apl still also does gar mut vanish rupt

split sorrel
#

yes

pure condor
#

if you already have 5 cp from gar mut

split sorrel
#

that is true

#

I'll test both

pure condor
#

k

split sorrel
#

well

#

looks like it's better to use vanish rupture

#

if you get 5cp early

pure condor
#

more cp effective i guess

split sorrel
#

yup

strong quest
#

yeah u would suggest overriding garrote yes?

#

when vanishing

#

point is always beeing able to refresh garrote

#

when vanishing

#

cd is 15 sec

pure condor
#

if its worth prob gonna depend if you are gonna miss out on a cast because of holding it

#

in the longrun

strong quest
#

lets say my garrote has 10 sec cd

#

would u wait vanish

viscid sonnet
#

no

strong quest
#

well why not? lets say its a fight where u vanish 1 time

#

i guess u want to maximaze the dmg from vanish

#

also what does vanish do with kb?

#

does it try to sync it

#

in simc

#

like cast it 6 secs before it ends

split sorrel
#

no

#

you don't delay vanish

#

but you can override a garrote up to 10s

#

so in fact it's up to 13s at the moment you vanish

pure condor
#

garrote only has 15s cd so you might actually want to hold garrote for vanish and not the other way around

strong quest
#

@split sorrel 13s what?

#

@pure condor yeah that seems logical

pure condor
#

13s of garrote debuff left

strong quest
#

subt doenst decrease cd on garrote?

#

only empowers it right

pure condor
#

ye

strong quest
#

so if u vanisha and its 13 s left u can override it

#

but if u dont u can only if its 10sec left

#

y?

pure condor
#

if you dont vanish?

strong quest
#

no
you don't delay vanish
but you can override a garrote up to 10s
so in fact it's up to 13s at the moment you vanish

#

I did not understand this

#

100%

pure condor
#

you only rrefresh garrote when it has 10s uptime left

#

so you can vanish when its at 13 s since you will spend 2 gcds between vanish and garrote

#

so its vanish at 13, envenom at 12, muti at 11, gar at 10 for instance

strong quest
#

i get it

#

but

#

garrote has 18s duration and 15s cd

#

how can u override it?

#

if its at 10s

#

u still have 5sec cd

pure condor
#

ugh that actually makes sense lol

strong quest
#

yeah im curretnly testing at dummy

#

thats why all the silly questions

wind lotus
#

pandemic.

pure condor
#

then its 23,4s duration so at 10s garrote still hast 1,6s cd

strong quest
#

y

#

8,4 sec

#

u can refresh

wind lotus
#

not in the opener tho, when you vanish after first one

strong quest
#

with pandemic

#

opener is fine

#

im talking late fight

#

midfight

#

well whatver, no point to overcomplicate this

#

its obvious that its good to vanish garrote midfight

#

and you should if u can

stark moon
#

vanish Gr over vanish rupture?

strong quest
#

?

#

oh

#

depends

#

πŸ˜ƒ

pure condor
#

hes talking subt

rotund forum
#

simc isnt updated for 7.2 yet, should we still be simming every peice of gear through it to be sure? its not simming the new traits and stuff im assuming but it should still be accurate right?

odd sedge
#

is simc waiting just 8 secs for vanish with draught of souls? isnt it better to synch them? With mantle

pure condor
#

does someone know the enchant_id for trained soldier?

odd sedge
#

wowhead

#

or you can put enchant=600mastery

regal agate
#

you can just use trained_soldier instead of the id

#

enchant=name_of_enchant

pure condor
#

ah thx

dark inlet
#

Just want to make sure I haven't overlooked it. @split sorrel You hadn't done outlaw T20 sims yet had u.

odd sedge
#

there is only one condition for vendetta on latest apl?

#

IΒ΄m trying to understand what timers simc is using for spells, from what I see it doesnt calculate anything for vendetta? just on cd?

split sorrel
#

yes @odd sedge

#

was the most optimal one

#

but maybe you got more ideas

#

πŸ˜„

#

@dark inlet no

#

but considering the 7.2.5 changes

#

you can forgot T20 tbh

odd sedge
#

Not yet aethis, just got mantle (ofc it was my 10th)and trying to understand whats optimal atm

#

its also waiting 5 secs with KB if vendetta is up soon right?

split sorrel
#

depends if golden or not

#

you don' want to delay with golden

dark obsidian
#

I sim 3k higher with the nightly instead of your github one aethys

#

the garrote into mut sims higher than garrote into kb

#

with golden

#

with subt

#

and shoulders + bracers

split sorrel
#

interesting

#

wasn't the case for me

#

drop the profile

#

I'll check after raid

dark obsidian
#

how?

#

but i only did 10k iterations so that might also be why

split sorrel
#

save html, put it here

dark obsidian
#

Do you want both of them or just 1?

#

Like this?

glad leaf
#

Does anyone knwo which legendary is best after getting Sinister Circulation ? Bracers or Shoulders ? I asume Boots are still BIS, maybe even more so after the trait.

dark obsidian
#

Not a question for the simulation channel I think Andruz, but I belive it is boots+shoulders

glad leaf
#

I was unsure where to ask tbh, first time posting in this discord hehe, and I cant post on the theorycrafting channel so...

split sorrel
#

yes, post both actor in same html @dark obsidian

#

or both report

split sorrel
#

cool ty

dark obsidian
#

dunno how to combine them, so ill just do like that

split sorrel
#

it's bad to do that btw

#

not the same rng seed πŸ˜›

#

and since iterations is rather low

#

it changes the output

#

but I'll compare them properly after the raid

dark obsidian
#

ah alright, I dont know how to sim 2 profiles at the same time when 1 of them has a custom APL

stoic raven
#

how is the new golden for sin btw?

#

properly modeled in sims yet?

split sorrel
#

yes.

autumn jungle
#

11131111 (NS/DS) Simming higher than 1133111 (NS/Vigor) f or anyone?

stiff agate
#

3x MA Relics still the wayto go with CoF and Boots?

civic cradle
novel lava
#

if i'm simming 3 different profiles, with different talents and gear, and have different names for the "rogue" line for each, do i need the name=Base line in front of the gear?

pure condor
#

@split sorrel is there a reason that you already removed the "hold kb if vendetta comes up in 10s" line from the apl? or just in anticipation that people are gonna unlock the new golden trait anyways and then its cast on cd

#

because its still a 10k damage increase with my current gear profile

split sorrel
#

show

#

me

late willow
#

That sounds like something that would vary with your fight length

pure condor
late willow
#

That doesn't sound right.

#

Kb cd is 45s

pure condor
#

6 min fight

#

well i maybe wrote that wrong

#

"hold kb if vendetta comes up in 10s" should be "ONLY hold kb if vendetta comes up in 10s"

split sorrel
#

yes u're right πŸ˜ƒ

#

in fact it depends on MA

#

(and cof and boots)

pure condor
#

isnt that why the line existed? if you get good cof procs or have boots or whatever and vendetta cd is <=55 you hold kb and if youre unlucky or dont have boots its gonna cast kb without vendetta

split sorrel
#

I thought the same tonight while playing with the addon

proven orbit
#

did they already fix the infinite stacking bug thing?

#

or did it never hit live

pure condor
#

both prob

split sorrel
#

first I would say

willow pecan
#

i heard that foci proc chance has changed on live. is there any change in sim too?

golden pewter
#

do angerboda and foci have similar ppm?

split sorrel
#

yes it's a big gain when you don't have CoF @pure condor

#

or can't hit the boss πŸ˜„

robust marten
#

whats the command line for 600 mastery enchant

#

enchant=600mastery?

#

latest nightly still putting kingsbane at 30 second cd with agonizing, is that with the 0.5 second icd?

Hrm think deadly poison > ag when we get KB trait?

Oh thought I ewas in simple questions

pulsar canyon
#

Aethys, do u believe pb dmg sims correctly with ds?

hard hull
#

is AP still the way to go w/ gold triat?

rigid monolith

#

@hard hull yes it is

#

why not @pulsar canyon ?

#

% chance scale with current cp

#

@novel lava yes

mellow elbow
#

Nightblooming fond is still simming too high? I guess so if I get 4,5-5% dmg done in sims :I

viscid sonnet
#

Thats an average over usually 10000 iterations

swift lynx
#

do u people do like 1 boss with frond equipped and then come here complaining that it sims too high

#

like u have to have actually no brainpower

#

whatsoever

viscid sonnet
#

one time my frond didnt proc on normal krosus during 1 minute fight, useless trinket?

mellow elbow
#

I actually did whole nh clear 2 days ago

#

And it was way lower

#

But dank memes, I appreciate them

viscid sonnet
#

one nh clear isnt statistically significant 😌

#

but yes, it can be very streaky

#

consider that it has 2k agility though

mellow elbow
#

I was just worried, considering it was pretty bad before

#

Or people have been reporting it to be bad

viscid sonnet
#

people say a lot of shit

mellow elbow
#

Yeah, agility makes it so much better

#

Well, so I guess I'll just trust sims in this matter, if it doesn't "sim too high"

#

Math can't be wrong after all

#

Thank you for your input

viscid sonnet
#

sorry for being rude but im sure someone comes on the discord every hour and asks the same question

mellow elbow
#

Yeah, I'm here a couple of hours and I see those questions all the time

#

And I asked one myself

#

Also that site raidbots.com is literally just "sim online", right?

viscid sonnet
#

yes, it uses the latest nightly builds, so its nice

mellow elbow
#

Exactly so, especially now since everything's changing every day

warm lake
#

Don't know where to put this but... 22% crit. 135% mastery. ST build. legendary boots. Ilevel 891 equipped. 880 frond. Only simming 450k DPS. Does this seem off or logical due to no tier pieces yet/no cof/no dos

viscid sonnet
#

maybe a bit low if you have full traits (or atleast the 5 + 10)

split sorrel
#

@mellow elbow and some day every hours πŸ˜„

mellow elbow
#

Yeah, sadly πŸ˜„

dire lichen
#

@split sorrel You did some changes yesterday that corrected the NS/SF numbers for assa?

split sorrel
#

?

dire lichen
#

well yesterday SF was still siming like 20k higher

#

now both are within 5k with NS ahead

split sorrel
#

version ?

#

reports ?

#

can't help without informations

dire lichen
#

wow build level 23826, git build 8cdf3fd

#

lemme share report

#

todays log is with NBF

shell depot
#

so whats the go-to route for artifact traits now?

patent vector
#

@dire lichen : my reports showing SF 1k ahead of NS.

dire lichen
#

well, I mean that might be right. I was just curious b/c all weekend long people where reporting (incl. myself) that SF was like 5-20k higher than NS and the common opinion was that NS should be ahead

#

from my today's sim it seems reasonable

#

OK did another run on my notebook with yesterdays build (8885511dc), SF 806k NS 798k with exactly same sim profile

#

so I guess there were changes in todays build

#

(and again, that doesn't mean it's bad)

split sorrel
#

yes

#

ns was patched some days ago

#

and I did change the APL to improve garrote subterfuge

#

also there might me somme little improvement for NS

#

but I'm not even sure it's worth

#

like when at 4 (or 5 if DS) cp

#

worth or not to mut vanish

#

instead of just vanish ?

dire lichen
#

hm but still sims for today went down by ~75k that's what made me curious

split sorrel
#

what build ?

#
[   ]    simc-720-01-win64-8cdf3fd.7z    2017-04-03 05:08    47M     ```
#

one of those ?

#

try those and do not use any APL, it'll auto generate the latest

Could you elaborate/clarify on this comment in the default APL? Thanks!

Sinister Circulation makes it worth to cast Kingsbane on CD, although you shouldn't cast it if you're [stealthed w/ Nighstalker and have Mantle & T19_4PC to Envenom].

viscid sonnet
#

you shouldnt kingsbane out of vanish

#

even if it comes up just that second

#

like you should in any other situation

lunar trout
#

"out of vanish"? As in, we shouldn't cast Kingsbane while under the effect of Mantle and save it until after?

viscid sonnet
#

you shouldnt cast it out of stealth, you should still cast it during mantle

#

oyu dont want to NS empower kingsbane but envenom

#

is the point

split sorrel
#

if you have mantle & t19

#

else kb seems better than rupture

#

rather, not worth to delay for the rupture

#

but I need to double test that

rustic abyss
#

i noticed im simming a bit better with the trained soldier enchantment instead of satyr, so im curious if its a thing now. maybe after hitting a specific mastery value, soldier becomes better than satyr?

viscid sonnet
#

yes @rustic abyss others have reported and use it

#

at high high mastery levels

lunar trout
#

Surely we still want to cast it out of stealth given that it's a 2 minute CD on Vanish. To be clear then, what you're saying is that we don't cast KB after leaving stealth until after Envenom has benefited from NS, using it after that while still under the affect of Mantle.

rustic abyss
#

thanks @viscid sonnet

viscid sonnet
#

im not sure what you mean vercadium, youre supposed to use kingsbane the exact global it comes up in ALL cases EXCEPT if it comes up as soon as youre about to vanish, then you should vanish envenom kingsbane instead

lunar trout
#

That makes sense! Perhaps it's just me, but both the comment and your previous explanation didn't read that way to me.

#

Thanks for explaining πŸ™‚

viscid sonnet
#

yeah, sorry :^P

lunar trout
#

While we're on the subject I guess, presumably there's a threshold where it's better to use vs wait. At the moment I'd guess that would be <5 seconds before Vanish wait, otherwise blow it, but I have no data to know one way or the other.

viscid sonnet
#

@lunar trout for kingsbane? I think aethys worked out that you should never wait with using it (with that one vanish NS exception)

lunar trout
#

Yeah, I'm talking about that exception. Not sure what the wait/use point is in that case.

#

Like it would seem wrong to hold it for more than 5 seconds for vanish at a guess.

viscid sonnet
#

@lunar trout if KB is up 5 secs before vanish, just use it immediately

#

yolo

lunar trout
#

Aye, that's what I'm guessing, just wondering if it's still correct to blow KB before Vanish at, say, 4 seconds, 3 seconds? Just wondering if someone has done the maths πŸ˜‚

@split sorrel i simmed using latest nightly with sinister trait, imported armory and the APL did 2 mutilate with mantle buff on opener

distant marsh
#

im sorry but what is APL?

civic cradle
#

action priority list

split sorrel
#

@lofty lily

#

yes an issue I have to fix

#

the builder at 4 cp

#

in fact it does it

lofty lily
#

ok just thought i should let u know in case u didnt notice it

split sorrel
#

I guess

#

for the envenom/rupture at 5cp

#

but I'm not even sure it's worth

#

at this point

lofty lily
#

well the thing is it doesnt rupture after that

split sorrel
#

because it's vanish evenom I guesss

#

mantle & 4pc ?

lofty lily
#

yeah

split sorrel
#

yes so vanish env

lofty lily
#

but with subter it behaves the same

split sorrel
#

but I don't think it's worth going to 5 cp when u're at 4 for that

lofty lily
#

which vanish>env doesnt benefit

split sorrel
#

do u have a report.html where it does that ?

#

with subter

#

with ns it's "intended" in the sense I didn't changed it yet

lofty lily
#

at the opener same as NS. didnt look at the later part yet

#

i guess from looking at the next vanish it doesnt do that anymore

split sorrel
#

would like to have the report

#

it's way better for me to understand what's going on compared to a screenshot

lofty lily
#

how do i make the report?

#

lol

charred stone
#

Bottom right, button sav!

novel lava
#

@cerulean junco insignia was worse than the top 3 before and didn't get any better since the addition of gold trait and 7th MA, whereas the others do. Wrists improve the most with the new kingsbane damage making a larger percentage of our damage done be by bleeds and poisons, boots bring vendetta closer to lining up for every kingsbane meaning you get a larger percentage of your kingsbane under vendetta and mantle syncs easier with kingsbane as it's on a 30sec cd instead of 45 now so you don't have to hold your vanish for aslong. Insignia also has horrible stats, crit loses a lot of value with shoulders (which are still the strongest legendary) and haste sucks all the time. Insignia is competitive if you're fighting 2 targets permanently, but that almost never happens.

lofty lily
#

oh. that save button is the report. ok then lol

split sorrel

I am just asking about pb with ds cause our other rogue using this setup is getting constantly more than double pb dmg than me, which is not reflected on our sims. On our last guldan fight he got 54mil while I got 25 for example @split sorrel

you can see it as a 2nd frond if you prefer

btw aethys besides the 2 mutilates can we consider the rest of the opener is good to go?

split sorrel
#

how many procs did he have ? @pulsar canyon

#

link me the logs and I'll explain to you what exactly are the differences

#

@lofty lily looks good tbh, probably something little thing here and here

#

but overall, it looks ok

lofty lily
#

aight πŸ‘

split sorrel
#

I still have to double check the DoS ones

winter wraith
#

Also have a question on openers, I'm simming using no mantle, DOS, and subterfuge. The opener seems to prioritize DOS usage above SOT clipping with ENV during the KB window. Don't have the screenshot but the opening rotation went like this:

Gar-Mut-Rup-Mut-Vend-Mut-Env-KB-Mut-Mut-Env-DOS-Mut-Vanish-Gar-Env

I was using the opener and noticed my KB stacks severely lacking on opening specifically. Seems that after the first env, it doesn't clip in preference of DOS going into the vanish gar. Depending on seal fate of the first mut for rupture duration, you may also have to reapply rupture after the vanish gar sacrificing another env. Does that seem normal?

split sorrel
#

should be Env Gar in ur example

#

but I think I know why

#

garrote is higher than env

#

so πŸ˜’

winter wraith
#

the vanish timing worked with the garrote timer, to pandemic the subterfuge garrote

split sorrel
#

yes but you could have done vanish env garrote

winter wraith
#

it was just the DOS early without shoulders that seemed out of plave

#

the chances of that 1 mut going to 4 cp is low though isn't it?

split sorrel
#

hmm

winter wraith
#

DOS-Vanish-Env-Gar

split sorrel
#

do you have mantle or not ?

winter wraith
#

no

split sorrel
#

dos makes no diff then if it's before or after the vanish, no ?

winter wraith
#

it looked very similar when I did NS too, opened the same way except did a vanish rupture

#

nope

#

just best to use during a pool window

split sorrel
#

so what is worrying you ?

winter wraith
#

the early DOS is causing SOT to drop during KB isn't it?

split sorrel
#

if it did vanish env garrote, no

#

and in fact, it's more env buff that is important for KB than SoT (well, SoT is aswell, but in between 2 ticks it's env buff that is important)

winter wraith
#

do you just hope for a SF proc then? odds of that 4cp mut seems low

#

yeah, the env buff lasts a tad longer which held

split sorrel
#

but I would have to see the whole report

odd sedge
#

during KB its not sot thats important its envenom buff

#

and that is longer

split sorrel
#

because I'm not good enough to know all timers πŸ˜„

#

yes @odd sedge

winter wraith
#

OK. I'll see what I can get later when I'm home

odd sedge
#

also envenom pandemics unlike sot

split sorrel
#

ideally you want SoT up on each tick (every 2s * 7)

#

and env buff pandemic

winter wraith
#

I just wanted to confirm but having that vanish-env-gar already seems better in my head

split sorrel
#

yup exactly @odd sedge

#

I think vanish env gar would have been better

#

but on your thing

#

considering no pooling, SoT still up when he env

#

after the vanish garrote

winter wraith
#

that may be the time to pop arcane torrent as well incase of SF procs

split sorrel
#

so diff is probably very small

winter wraith
#

DOS-MUT-MUT-vanish-ENV would be rough in that small window

split sorrel
#

depends on energy

winter wraith
#

but i will play with it, thank you

pure condor
#

@winter wraith prob gonna depend if you need the 2 mut before dos or if 1 is enough to get to 4cp. if 1 is enough sot shouldnt drop, if you need 2 then the mut after dos needs to be 4cp or sot is most likely gonna drop

winter wraith
#

yeah, no guarantee to hit 4 cp with 1 mut

pure condor
#

well the mut before dos just needs to be 3 cp to scrap 1 mut from the list you posted

winter wraith
#

mut before dos?

pure condor
#

Gar-Mut-Rup-Mut-Vend-Mut-Env-KB-Mut-Mut-Env-DOS-Mut-Vanish-Gar-Env

#

KB-Mut-Mut-Env-DOS

#

might just need 1 mut if the first gives 3 cp

winter wraith
#

oh in that case yes, that's always up in the air depending how procs go

pure condor
#

yea and then you should have enough energy to do dos mut mut vanish env

#

so you need to be unlucky twice to let sot fall off

glad lance
#

Hello. AMR tells me to skip 4-piece in favour of one item with +30 ilvl and one with +5. Is that for real?? And when I sim it it comes out a bit lower than with 4-pieces... wierd.

neon jasper
#

does amr even take set bonuses into consideration properly?

errant tinsel
#

if its simming lower, its propably worse

#

trust the sims i would say

glad lance
#

Ok thx

lunar trout
#

Not saying it's better or worse, but run SimulationCraft instead and see if you get the same results, then return here. @glad lance

rustic abyss
#

Does the apl consider delaying vanish for either dos+mantle or vendetta?

glad lance
#

I run simcraft ahead and then I put those values into AMR. Isn't that the way to go if I wanna use both? @lunar trout

lunar trout
#

Possibly, I haven't used AMR. I'm just saying that if you run a comparison on Simulationcraft and it confirms the result you found on AMR then it's probably correct. If it is different, then it points to a discrepancy.

glad lance
#

Yes ofc. Well thanks for the advice I'll keep simin πŸ˜ƒ

lunar trout
#

If you don't usually use SimulationCraft, there's a web UI @ raidbots.com that might make it a bit quicker for you πŸ™‚

#

Just make sure to set it to "nightly" mode to get the 7.2 changes.

glad lance
#

Yes I've been using that too to solve this question but no luck so far. Will continue to compare the results and hopefully find an answer to my own question πŸ˜ƒ

bleak sky
#

@rustic abyss We've simulated delaying vanish for many scenarios and it was always a dps loss. It was a loss to wait for later portion of KB and to wait for Dos. You'd wait for vend but you shouldn't really need too as Vend should overlap. Same with KB anyway. CD are getting pretty short.

#

With 7/7MA CoF and Boots Vend should have a 40s cd and a 50% uptime.

rustic abyss
#

thanks for the insight, @bleak sky . i thought there might be a rule like "wait if vendetta cd <= 10sec" or something similar

pure condor
#

just noticed that wowprogress updated the version of simcraft they use πŸ˜ƒ

bleak sky
#

We are still testing. There might be. Found some evidence that you should not hold KB in some circumstances if you have 7/7MA + CoF + Boots. Was a 7.5k dps boost.

#

I sent it to Aethys to look over.

peak lynx
#

Does that mean people with mantle should use dos on cd?

mossy loom
split sorrel
#

issue is

#

CoF is random πŸ˜›

#

so when you have disconnect

#

hmm

#

hard to find a good thing

#

but I'll figure

#

and also I have some other things to improve the APL further

bleak sky
#

@split sorrel Basically if Vendetta cd >=10s use KB

#

Vendetta CD<=6s use KB

#

Between those two points delay

split sorrel
#

the condition I've put yesterday no ?

bleak sky
#

Yes

#

With slight tweak. Changed 5.2 to 6s

split sorrel
#

just have to add a 7/7 & cof & boots restriction for the on cd one

bleak sky
#

Yes

stark sentinel
#

i only get +34k with the 42 trait ? is that about right ? feels low 😦

bleak sky
#

About what I got

stark sentinel
#

hm kk

rose salmon
#

@bleak sky Why not delaying when Vend CD under 6sec then?

#

πŸ€”

sullen dagger
#

where can one find the cast sequence for openers and whatnot in simc result?

#

can't seem to find that

bleak sky
#

@split sorrel Hold on. Looks like even with 6/6MA you shouldn't use KB on cd.

#

10k dps gain. Ah I had NS enabled. Hang on.

#

@rose salmon Most likely it causes you to delay usage of KB too much and you ultimately get less uses.

radiant dust
#

has anyone tried simming deeper stratagem?

#

its seem higher for me right now

#

thats only until i take sinister circulation tho

bleak sky
#

Additionally the important part of KB is towards the end which is what Vendetta will be effecting. It's not very important that Vend covers the beginning portion of KB.

radiant dust
#

but even there sims about the same then vigor

rose salmon
#

@bleak sky So basically you created like an average solution between losing KB uses & gain from Vend+KB?

bleak sky
#

It's Aethys's solution. I was just modifying some conditions and number values.

#

But yes

split sorrel
#

πŸ˜›

#

I'll look at after raid prolly

#

or while eating

#

doing ap daily grind atm ^^

rose salmon
#

bois pythagore should be proud of u πŸ‘Œ

bleak sky
#

@split sorrel Yea. It was a dps gain to delay KB under certain conditions for both NS and SUBT with 6+/7MA +COF + Boots. Not just 7/7MA

rare trail
#

just got the trait

split sorrel
#

kk but in reality it depends mostly on cof

bleak sky
#

Yea that is true. It might work all the way down the rabbit hole. Since it is only delaying KB when Vend CD is less than 10 and greater than 6.

split sorrel
#

yes it's gonna be okay

Thats definitely wrong. More than likely the APL doesnt account for lower CD KB or They havent implemented that trait yet

late willow
#

yeah

reef canyon
#

what is your character's realm? I'll take a look.

rare trail
#

@vague olive i am about trait in dreadblades not talent

vague olive
#

Oh yeah what about the trait

bleak sky
#

No you didn't. AMR is wrong.

#

Did some quick sims with the golden on relic choice and traits to choose.

reef canyon
#

I loaded ashkev's character, it looks like the AMR path vs the other path are within 1% of each other. The other patch is the higher one, so I'll see if we can drop the margin of error on that for you.

bleak sky
#

4/4MA = 5.9k with 3/3MA relics
4/4TB = 5k with 3/3MA relics
4/4 GW = 3.5k with 3/3MA relics

871.9k = 3MA
869.1k = 2MA 1TB
864.3k = 2MA 1GW

2.7k dps per ilvl

#

@reef canyon Most likely the simulator isn't taking advantage of the golden properly. Golden was over a 30+k increase for me.

reef canyon
#

i'm running another sim that should finish in 5 min. Then I can test that out. Sim with it, and sim without it, that should tell us if it is working

grave wharf
#

There is no way that picking up all the utility traits in the main tree is "within 1%" of picking up the new golden trait, even if it is gated behind a utility trait of its own

split sorrel
#

First thing to test is if everything is implemented correctly

#

then the APL

reef canyon
#

Did the APL have a lot of changes after 7.2? (Not a rogue expert)

split sorrel
#

kinda y

#

they changed a lot of stuff for assa

#

also bugfixes

reef canyon
#

what are those? I'll check with swol on what he's done for that rotation after 7.2

split sorrel
#

well, make a git diff with the APL from 1month and the one from today if you want to see

#

but I also changed some things in the core that was bugged

#

and also removed some other bugs

#

that no longer exists

reef canyon
#

oh you mean simc's bugs?

split sorrel
#

no

#

both

#

in game bugs & simc bugs

reef canyon
#

oh, right, yeah. I was just looking at the stuff on AMR for now, since we were able to match our sims to logs pre7.2.

#

like, super super close.

split sorrel
#

logs means nothing considering how rng the spec is

reef canyon
#

So now with 7.2, I am going through that process again.

split sorrel
#

but whatever, don't want a debate on that πŸ˜„

#

since AMR doesn't care about implementing things that is in <1%, when you miss several things in <1% it makes a big diff

reef canyon
#

huh?

split sorrel
#

leggos makes a big difference for rogues

#

and that's not the only thing

reef canyon
#

@bleak sky Looks like the golden trait is accounting for 10k dps increase. I will do some digging and check int othat. Thanks.

#

We sim legendaries? Not sure what you mean sorry

split sorrel
#

it's the guideline of AMR and Swol claims, not bothering with things that seems to be < 1%

#

but rogues have plenty of that

#

so when you chain them, it makes a big differences

#

whatever it is, artifact trait, ingame bug, legendaries, etc...

bleak sky
#

@reef canyon The rotation changes with Shoulder leggo.

reef canyon
#

Is that referring to the feral article, or that macrologia discussion? That is not what <1% means.

#

@bleak sky ahh, got it. Will ask swol about that really quickly.

split sorrel
#

if you don't know what I mean, just check the latest thread about RtB that was opened by Swol on MMO-C.

#

You have to considers everything, and I "lost" a lot of time by tinking on things that are <1% because after all it makes a pretty big difference.

#

And yeah, it's something that has been discussed with Feral, Rogue has some sort of same mechanic. Anyway, we're going off topic πŸ˜ƒ

reef canyon
#

Hmm, not sure I know what you mean. When we compared AMR's pre7.2 apl to simc's, AMR's did more. I am not trying to be argumentative, just trying to understand.

split sorrel
#

because AMR is missing key things

#

either APL either Core

#

I don't check daily since that's not my job

#

and you never wanted to exchange on that so I don't lost my time on that

#

Rogues are filled by bugs or weird behavior, so it's not simple I agree

reef canyon
#

I still don't follow. I never said I didn't want to work with you 😦

#

Anyway, we have been able to prove accuracy (pre 7.2). And now I'm on the lookout for post 7.2 stuff. Thanks for helping @bleak sky ! I haven't confirmed it's a bug yet or wrongly impelmented, but it does seem like that's likely the case.

#

And I'll double check on that shoulder legendary rotation with swol too

grave wharf
#

@split sorrel Echoing what @rare trail said up above, it looks like the Nightly might not be getting the benefit of "Dreadblade's Vigor" for Outlaw- getting a very minor/almost no increase with it , when I'd expect it to be more like a 2-3% total damage increase

#

based on how much damage gets packed into the Curse phases

So I finally got CoF last night, right around the same time I got my 42 trait. Before swapping I simmed all combinations of boots/shoulders/wrists. Shockingly after the 42 trait wrists were coming out ahead of boots, even with CoF + 2MA relics, by about 13k. Anyone else tested this, I was pretty surprised, would love a second opinion.

#

I never would have thought the additional KB uptime in execute would push them past boots.

#

just realized this should prob go in theorycrafting, sorry

bleak sky
#

I'm lazy so just link me your char so I can import it

#

and I'll play around

stable zinc
#

Relics in my bag are both 905 shadow/iron MA relics, CoF is 865 + socket

bleak sky
#

Interesting

#

Basically comes down to the fact you don't have CoF equipped

#

But they simmed within 2-3k of each other

#

Huh. No it isn't CoF. Was actually better to use 885DoS and 890NBF over a 905 cof....

stable zinc
#

Right... I didn't expect boots to fall behind, literally been sitting on them for 3 weeks waiting for a dang CoF to drop, and once it did, the new gold trait may not make it as strong.

#

My next question is, with adding 4/4 to other bleed/poison traits, could that potentially push bracers further ahead?

bleak sky
#

No boots still won

#

Maybe it's your mastery.

I mean, my mastery is at 152% unbuffed, I don't see how that could be an issue.

i only need to download this one SimcSetup-720-01-Win64.exe right the 2 one down from the top

heavy moon
#

yeah

mortal yew
#

is the addon PAWN any good to help with gear for rogues?

finite thunder
#

of course

#

just sim yourself to get your pawn value

#

pawn is just a multiplier addon

#

you need to use sim yourself to get your own weights

I am siming 744 dps w my 900 gs Outlaw Rogue (Greenskins and Cinidara) - my real output is nowhere near that.

What are your ST outputs compared to your sim dps?
is 744 dps good or bad? Is there a site where i can compare my results to other outlaw rogues?

viscid sonnet
#

you can look at specific fights and filter by class and spec AND ilvl

dusty marlin
#

Guessing its been asked and answered before, but how much dmg increase is sinister circulation in % roughly

tough dirge
#

744 @900 ilvl should be an average estimate on patchwork with your legys. But it is very well possible that you don't reach those numbers regularly because A outlaw variation and B with 4pc and cof it gets increasingly difficult to perform perfect spell queuing. Add boss mechanics and you are problby looking at your dps.

tropic plinth
#

outlaw has been oversimming the whole expansion as far as i can tell

#

but the only answer i've gotten from the simcraft guys is that "latency and player skill" are causing lower than sim values

#

while as the assa sim values are very much reachable

#

this is coming from someone who had multiple 100/99+ outlaw parses pre-7.1.5

split sorrel
#

debate is, should we make the APL worst ?

tropic plinth
#

just concerned some lazy blizzard employees might be glancing at sim values to say "outlaw is in a good spot, people are just bad at it"

#

but personally idc very much anymore cuz i switched to assa to be competitive

regal agate
#

why do we want a worse apl?(sry for offtopic)

tropic plinth
#

we want a more accurate apl, b/c there is no way 900k outlaw sim values on wowprogress are accurate

split sorrel
#

wowprogress sims πŸ€”

civic cradle
#

900k seems fine for outlaw if you're 910+ with shoulders / greenskins and itemized for versatility

haughty escarp
#

What are the rules for kingsbane with the new golden trait? Haven't been keeping up on discord much lately

civic cradle
muted rapids
#

if i'm looking to sim my character for expected dps for FoK'ng at 4 combo points instead of doing an extra mutilate, do i just add |combo_points=4 to the end of the fan of knives builder string

#

or is that just so bad that you shouldn't ever fok for the 5th point πŸ€”

dusty marlin
#

you will never have a good SoT uptime if u go for a 5cp env everytime and waste energy on fok and u will lose alot of dps

wispy jasper
#

any sub guide with 7.2 traits ? (mostly how to use goremaw with last dragon trait )

#

and is simcraft 7.1.5 relevant since 7.2 is alive

viscid sonnet
wispy jasper
#

thanks

viscid sonnet
#

aethys has done so much work lately that you kinda need to update simcraft every day for accurate results

#

or rather, before doing any sims

split sorrel
#

and it's not finished yet, just slowed because not #weekend πŸ˜›

late willow
#

Updated to last night's nightly. I think it may be holding vanish for too long. The current rule states that it has to have max combo points to cast vanish then envenom. Which is mostly true but if you don't get 5cp in the opener it just holds it in the Sims till upwards of 16s

#

Also I'm not too sure about that draught line because it casts draught with nearly 0 stacks of AP in the opener. I haven't tested it much but wouldn't holding draught for vanish in the opener always net you ~50% more damage without any downside?

split sorrel
#

for the first part

#

yes I think I'll allow max cp - 1

#

for the second, yeah I need to improve DoS

#

tbh since I don't wear it I didn't spend much time on it, but it's in my todo list πŸ˜„

late willow
#

Yeah max cp - 1 is what I think it should be. Last night I just hard coded a 4 in there and saw an increase

#

Yeah not having it makes it feel like less of an issue when fixing stuff

pulsar canyon
#

@dusty marlin the thing he is trying to sim with fok might not be so easy to answer with the increased pb proc chance

#

I would actually like to see a sim with 4cp finishers vs 5 with a bit less sot uptime for the pb %

dark obsidian
#

Is there any way to sim which trait is the best as the 43rd trait in assa? Like is MA still better than GW as 43rd if u dont have boots?

willow pecan
#

yes, use wowhead artifact calculator to generate an artifact string with the traits you want, and copy it to:
artifact=

dark obsidian
#

thanks!

bleak sky
#

@split sorrel I tried allowing that and it simmed as a loss

#

maybe you'll get diff results

patent vector
#

People always say to trust the sims. here is a situation : My combination Eye of Guam 875+ Nightblooming Frond 890 sims higher than Any combination with Convergence of fate. But CoF is supposed to be BIS right?

sullen dagger
#

how many MA relics do you have? do you have boots?

heavy moon
#

read the pinned message

patent vector
#

3 MA relics, but no boots

#

(only mantle + bracers)

gleaming fern
#

Is the Sinister Circulation inner-CD nerf already accounted for in the latest simc? Having issues with the simulated KB CD reduction vs the one I get on live.

late willow
#

Yeah it is. I'm getting about 28 to 32 second kb on live. And sim is similar.

fervent inlet
#

am i allowed to ask in this chat where the statweights on simcraft are shown on the results?

split narwhal
#

Make sure to have Scaling turned on and it will Be under the subsection Results, Spec and Gear @fervent inlet

fervent inlet
#

yeah thanks @split narwhal googled it actually and found a post somewhere saying the same πŸ˜ƒ

vale spindle
#

Hey guys, quick question, is there something wonky about Convergence of Fate's simming? Because I have a 900ilvl CoF that's simming 25k dps lower than my 880ilvl Bloodthirsty Instinct along with several other trinket combinations I have tried. Is this something wrong with the sims/how I'm simming or is it accurate?

#

I've also tried Ask Mr. Robot's sim and got similar results

sullen dagger
#

you're asking in the wrong channel i think

#

but you don't have MA relics or boots, so CoF is not ideal

finite thunder
#

@vale spindle 703-02? you are using a ancient version

#

just get the new nightly build if you want to sim youself, always update your stuff...

vale spindle
#

@finite thunder thanks for the heads up fam

#

I hadn't realized my version was so out of date

finite thunder
#

np πŸ˜„

#

that version is before NH , that why your second damage is arcanogolem

sharp tartan
#

so I just got eye of command trinket 890+ and I have drought 905 and COF 895 what should I do?
should I use it or nah?

wicked ivy
#

ANyone know if the new Sin gold trait is simming properly?

finite thunder
#

@wicked ivy yes it is

wicked ivy
#

wow ok. my stat wieghts are Mast > Agi > Vers now >.<

ivory widget
#

not understanding why AMR is asking me to replace bracer/boots combo with bracer/belt legendary combo

split narwhal
#

@ivory widget I would Test on Simc and see if you get the same result (assuming you won't though)

reef canyon
#

@ivory widget IS that with a custom gearing strategy or a default one? If you haven't run a custom one yet, I have a quick tutorial. The custom one will sim every legendary and trinket and use those results in the gear optimizer. http://i.imgur.com/r2gpuBW.jpg

#

(AFK for about 30-45 min, so ping me or pm me if you have questions. Thought I'd drop that tutorial before I had to run tho!)

raven dune
#

Is there a mastery cap for assasin rogues ? cause simcraft is telling me to go with crit gems

pure condor
#

is it intended that the apl opens with kb ?

whole siren
#

so basically with simcraft, I just sim different gear/talent/relic setups and see which one outputs the highest dps, and then go with that setup? is that the idea?

sterile jolt
#

Pretty much.

robust marten
#

how is vanish being used with NS. on cd?

#

not NS rather subterfuge

limpid finch
#

is the simulation craft 715-01 still viable

#

coz theres no new one yet except some builds

#

but idk if theyre legit

novel pier
#

all legit

limpid finch
#

thanks man

novel pier

fallen raptor
#

so is there not a 7.2 update for SimC yet?

paper matrix
#

Question. With mantle of master assassin I'm simming 20k DPS lower with subterfuge than nightstalker. Can anyone confirm that that is true now?

paper matrix
#

I just got shoulders tonight. Was part of the subterfuge change with them that it doesn't extend the duration anymore?

obsidian gate
#

20k lower sounds like a lot to me but yes, that is accurate

finite thunder
#

@fallen raptor its already live for a couple days

fallen raptor
#

I must be blind

#

the program? not just the addon?

stark bolt
#

hey guys i just got the 42 trait for assa and simmed it. My stat rankings went from the usual agi>mast>crit~=vers to mast~=agi~=haste>crit>vers

#

is that normal?

willow pecan
#

doesn't seem right, are you using latest build?

stark bolt
#

yeah im using the 7.2 one. The simmed dps went from 740k to 899k which already got me doubting it

#

I didn't do anything different from my usual sims though so I'm not sure what's wrong

willow pecan
#

and are you using latest nightly?

#

maybe they introdocued a bug

stark bolt
#

using the 720-01 one

willow pecan
#

try the latest nightly

#

it might be you have a version before the nerf to golden trait

stark bolt
#

ahh i see i will try again

stark bolt
#

@willow pecan thanks for your help! simming 810k with stat weights that seem normal now

willow pecan
#

the reason you had so high, was because it was possible to make KB last until the next time you apply KB, which was kinda inifnite damage stacking sort of deal

viscid sonnet
#

@fallen raptor no offical release, but those are useless

#

always download nightly builds

#

the latest win64 exe is generally what you want

split sorrel
#

Yes, tbh until a patch is "stable", you should always use nightly

#

During the next weeks, I'll continue to make a lot of changes to rogues, so be sure to always download at least the latest nightly. (Best would be you install VS and QT, and you build yourself πŸ˜‰ )

round canyon
#

Is the new outlaw gold implemented in simc yet?

split sorrel
#

Yes

round canyon
#

thanks

viscid sonnet
#

@split sorrel was the from the shadows bug implemented in simc? might it change the subter/ns balance?

inland ledge
#

sorry @split sorrel for stupid question but I am a begginer in simc - when I try to simulate my char using last nightly I got every time error : "SimulationCraft encountered an error!
Option parsing error:
Unexpected parameter 'if'. Expected format: name=value"

split sorrel
#

@viscid sonnet not really but I think it's something from 7.2

#

never heard before

#

only from the shadows bug is the AP multiplier ignores

#

@inland ledge delete the whole APL

boreal zenith
#

Hey, I am playing an assassin rogue (110 ilvl801) and simulationcraft says my statweights are: agi > crit > vers > mast > haste. Is this true or am I doing something wrong? Because I thought Mastery is the way to go and at the moment I got only 65%. (I am using the newest vers. of simc.) Thanks

mellow elbow
#

You are low ilvl, mastery starts to shine in nh gear, when you have a fuckload of it to make AP really strong

#

And even worth it in general

boreal zenith
#

ah okay, thats good to know. Thanks

unique reef
#

Hello. Is it normal that my SUB rogue has stat weights like this? Agility=14.38, CritRating=5.36, HasteRating=6.86, MasteryRating=9.03, Versatility=9.77 so its Agi>Versa>mastery>haste>crit... Im 869 with Legendary shoulders + my stats are: Crit 24%, Haste 8%, Versa 6% mastery 85%. Thanks

#

Also, itΒ΄s for light movement

proud locust
#

how do i properly use vanish in my rotation with the talent subterfuge and legendary shoulders as assa i really cant find the answer to this

normal slate
#

Hmm, where can i see what trait each of these numbers is? "artifact=17:0:0:0:0:851:1s:852:3:853:3:854:3:855:3:856:3:857:3:858:3:859:3:860:3:861:1:862:1:863:1:864:1:865:1:866:1:1349:1:1386:1:1585:4:1586:1:1587:1:1653:1"

#

Would like to sim myself with all traits that can go to 4, at 4.

viscid sonnet
#

@normal slate easiest is to use the artifact calculator on wowhead, theres a link button that can give you a Simcraft string

solemn plaza
#

Hey guys, I did some simming after being out for a while and I got this in return:

It says 860 EoC (socket) > 875 Elemental Foci > 885 Draught of Souls

Any chance any of these trinkets are under/oversimming, or should I ditch my DoS now? (25 ilvls seems quite steep)

buoyant pendant
#

Are you using the nightly build?

solemn plaza
#

Yes, I added the BTI I had as well this time and this is what I got (I downloaded a nightly yesterday)

#

I'm more than wanting to ditch DoS really but just don't want to be shooting myself in the foot πŸ˜„

normal slate
#

@viscid sonnet Thank you!

hard hull
#

Does the APL for gold trait spam kingsbane on cd ? Or does it hold for vendetta if it's within 5s

pulsar kraken
#

wtf is the APL using as opener

#

its so weird

#

it opens with KB?

robust marten
#

can any1 check if Sub is simming higher than NS for them aswell without shoulders. using latest nightly.

weary parcel
#

it was simming very slightly higher for me last time i checked

#

within 1k

robust marten
#

im still seeing people using NS in warcraftlogs. wanna make sure im not running subter thinking i should be getting higher dps.

weary parcel
#

just see what sims best for you tho

#

but keep in mind playstyle plays a role too

#

if you play NS better than Subt, ofc NS is gonna be better

robust marten
#

yea i dont know how to play subt and i cant find anybody else doing it so not really sure where to look for opener/vanish usage. if its a dmg upgrade i want to learn how to use it

#

also somebody in the guild forgot to log our heroic clear so i cant compare krosus/trill

cunning pebble
#

subterfuge is a major gain over nightstalker as of last night's sims

#

for me

proven orbit
#

what changed about subterfuge?

cunning pebble
#

well, of course the new garrote traits

#

i wasn't expecting that to be enough to tip the balance or create as wide of a performance gap as simc is indicating 🀷

thorny fog
#

does anyone know if bloodstained hankerchief is simming right? it does 2-3% of my dmg on bosses but on sims it's only like 1% or 0.7

fallen raptor
#

my sim was at 610k with the 715 one and now with the nightly 7.2 it's at 752k, wtf?

robust marten
#

are u still running NS @cunning pebble or have you switched over to sub

cunning pebble
#

subterfuge, because simulated and actual results are measurably better
