its not even that good. momentarily it feels good, but it also leads to having to refresh bleeds faster, which is really just exsanguinate in a different form
fair
Yeh exactly, just awful.
no
No

I’m gonna follow the green name here and say no.
That will end up loading to spam mentality
Spam CT = cringe!
class needs nothing other than maybe just some rupture buffs
as in, just make it deal more damage while other skills deal less to retain the same baseline in st but have stronger aoe
assa already plays amazingly well in aoe. the only
part is that its oversaturating energy with nothing to spend it on. but thats a small issue, ultimately
imagine choosing to make an evoker from the right side under the hideous goblins and for some reason it spawns u in as alliance that u only notice after u have finished the quests and u end up in front of stormwind
wtf
Doesn't sound sin related, scalie scum
Even worse
Loser
Shit take
Uh?
Varas noob
it's his love langurage
That one time in vc was the greatest 15 minutes of my life 
I'm literally the Break The Meta champion
Exusing people's shit behavior because
is dumb
My love language is holiday themed reeses candy
I don’t excuse it, I just ignore it unless it becomes full on flame
You and Val share the same love language then
And 2/3 the letters 
Warcieft mr polite never rude (except when sometimes)
subtely gang
Warcieft most wholesome rogues
No u 
No man
this reads like musclebrah wrote it
That guys is annoying af
You always engage me tho
That’s because I love you despite yourself
Cant wait to lvl as outlaw and play it at 70

I did setup my sin bars so thats a start
I'ma level my Hunter rn 
Dashing Scoundrel have a currently buggy?
the legendary?
Talent
it shouldn't no
dont worry I will moderate
In game only regenerates 1 energy

All I really need from this prepatch is that heirloom but I have plenty of time
Until then I'm just gonna level some alts
I'm sure they'll change but these early 70 builds look so wild from what anyone would've guessed in early beta
Tea, ER, Exsang
@strange python yeah just double checked it, it's for sure either bugged or a tooltip thing
loooks like a tooltip thing on wowhead
cause it says 1 energy in game
Pretty sure I always has been 1 energy
Wowhead wrong
Pretty sure realz confirmed it would be 1 at every level awhile back
Yeah
I vaguely remember some logic about 3 being too OP and not wanting the weird scaling of 1/1/2 for a 3 node talent
I've heard early Sims have sin competitive with outlaw in m+ and ST...plz be true. No more clown pirate enjoying
so, if i am understanding correctly we are taking echoing, and tea, and serrated, and exsang, and kingsbane. that seems like a lot of buttons
15 energy pog
i feel like that makes for a clunky ass rotation, has that sentiment not been the case?
this was a 33s log, 140 energy from dashing would be a crazy amount of energy
Idk if anyone has any opinions solidified until we play it, but a few people have been unhappy with exsang and ER coming back, yes.
I'm reformed on exsang
SBS is very popular here no matter how much I hate it
I'm cautiously skeptical of ButtonBloatSin, but we'll see.
i dont like serrated myself either
As far as I know, you don't do any real minmaxing with ER and Exsang other than send them on CD
"a few" and exsang
And SBS is just stay below stack cap
litearlly everyone except quakenhates it

stockholm got you
Exsang without requisite juicing honestly doesn't seem as bad to me
The worst part of exsang was the setup and holding
is there any difference between putting a point in ttb instead of ip?
just one gcd every 45s
I'm here
Loser
I also don’t necessarily enjoy it; but it’s just whatever.
Also I’d argue that varas is 1000000% more relevant than I
tea is just dump energy before using
Real? I remember at some point tea was for the mastery not the energy. That flipped?
im joking m8
Omg cutie
turns out it was always for the energy
and the mastery was just a nice bonus
go figure 
Yeah we were GCD capped then
Hmm
Now we’re not 
no, just all our capstones are not good lmao
like, we can grab2
dance sucks
woah woah woah
It feels thematically weird to get a mastery buff not sent during DM
tea and er are left over
bri*ish person detected
I have a question, on single target kingsbane or DTB is better?
You saying no one else can like tea?
they're about equal at level 70
literally within margin of error on the sims
That is in the pins my man - both builds for current best set up are there (it’s a pick your poison moment)
If you're gonna die before 35% dtb is better so I will reco mmend dtb

die and get ressed at 35
How does exsanguinate interact with SBS, if at all?
Is this with or without tier
the sims were done with tier
Interesting
It doesn’t
So KB build likely substantially better before tier
Time to redo all my keybinds to find room for all these CDs
In all reality since dtb is passive it'd be easier to use, ya?
ye you'd wait for the exsang'd bleeds to run out before reapplying
ok ty
I suppose, idk if the dtb exsang logic is still giga cursed or not
KB likely gains value on any fight with burst windows or notable downtime
Does Dtb do exsang juicing shit?
There's a difference in exsang usage between kb and dtb?
with dtb like nothing was synced ever

it probably changed because a lot has changed since
And with KB you just hold shiv
ye and send exsang on CD
So with KB
You rather hold that shivs for 10 sec
Than release without it
Interesting
Is there a bone spike/sepsis macro somewhere ?
you dont need one afaik
i guess if you want one, you can make one using the new [known] macro keyword
/cast [known:Serrated Bone Spike]Serrated Bone Spike;[known:Sepsis]Sepsis
this aint working
nah one or the other
life is an unknown...
That macro doesn’t look correct
using spell names won't work
but to save you the trouble, sepsis is trash tier and we don't take it
it works for sbs but doesnt work for sepsis
Acrobatic strikes feels so weird
Agreed
just forget you have it and stand inside the boss anyway

more leeway to my greed
like I did 
more time to hit the boss
haha
I was standing in my circle for rygelon
and I was still able to hit him
and I was like wtf
cry about it
It’s Definetly good just weird like when I did skolex I was able to step back from blue puddles and still hit him
I'll cry about it when I tuck you in tonight
i am not sure if sepsis is that actively used on any of the 3 specs
give sepsis unity
subtlety takes it with dark brew because it gets buffed quite a lot
I think sepsis's best chance was for sub
but also only if it does not go DM
stepsieee
which poison should we use ampfifying ?
yes, i think sub atm has the highest chance of taking it
if you're talented into amp you use amp
^
yeah for image 1 scenario
yeah then you'd use amp
ty

if you do aoe with that build you use dp
ok man ty
current outlaw apl takes sepsis, it doesnt want to waste any globals on br or keeping up ghostly in the ambush build
for m+ build
but that was days ago who knows what has been discovered sinse
oh correction not anymore

did hear that before, but it is not that obvious thats the best build for outlaw
How dare you have a delayed answer about outlaw outside of #outlaw 
outlaw zzzzzzz
outlaw 
utlaw
Yaarrr


Can anyone say what this is? I have no addons enabled and this comes everytime I try to use a mount in my bag and I had it earlier with another item, can't remember what it was though.
The tldr is that some add on is not up to date and is causing taint
Disable and figure out the cause
Is the solution
I have no addons, none, zero.
It could just be, add on not properly updated to round 2 of prepatch yet
Oh
Uh.
Close and reload 
Tried everything, just about to reinstall, but wanted to ask here first.

Question time. How does one track Improved Garrote with a weakaura? It's the same spell name and ID as just garrote
It'd be nice if I knew what garrote is on my target before my noob-ass starts reapplying normal garrotes during pandemic window
its very annoying and probably better to find one on wago
I literally couldn't find anything for the past few hours, that's why I'm desperate
It is not
381632
i alreay hate it and i only use like 12 addons
I tried it before and it wasn't working
Let me double check
It's not doing it
I also can't see the debuff ID on my target so I tried all debuff IDs present by WeakAura if I typed Garrote
None of them work, just 703
Take a SS real quick
is this new?
i had a huge custom coded WA i had to make for it in SL for knowing if it was subt garrote or not
ima go fix it now lol
I’m unsure if it’s a debuff here - I wish I were at my desk at home so I could test it 
Hoping some weak aura guru who’s more knowledgeable than my “test and see” method will answer soon 
If yours still works, could you share it please?
Did you try that spell ID too? It’s different from wowhead but could be not updated
Yeah I did, still nothing
1 sec testing now

nah its same debuff when "improved"
nah its standard lol
you have to use custom code
if you had the imp garrote buff when you casted garrote
aand you need to keep track of the targets you put it on
So I’m a dumas and didn’t realize it’s legit the same debuff - the buff is id’d and requires custom afaik
And I’m not versed enough for that one, sorry 
Yeah it’s annoying ngl
what language is the custom code written in?
I even had to ask an outlaw main
i think quazil assasination set had an improved garrote

luxthos has one too i think
could try making something
but it was a long time ago, can't say if it still works
Zac, you already saved me with the combo points
But my PC died rn i think, so I hope you guys find a solution
Zac is indeed a lad
Christmas miracle guy right there if you make it work xD
I'll definitely check
Thanks so much for the help everyone, really appreciated
Sorry I couldn’t do more.
Legitimately thought it would be easier
Could be easier honestly if it was a different debuff
I have them somewhere already
i remember that the garrote icon had a glow when it was improved
can't check it now, try it yourself 😄
to me glow means press it so i prefer text changing
Glow = Press it
Shine = Buff active / Debuff active on enemy

In the case of Improved garrote I too would change its color
toxic
I don't see it 😢
its a pvp talent
Vendetta is 

check the "deathmark" ability
still don't see it x)
can it still be applied via sepsis leggo?
so they changed vendetta for death mark ?
Well, I feel like its a downgrade, it is a verified feeling ?
Nah deathmark is major +++
Hum okey
But vendetta actually brought someting to the table in aoe, death mark don't ?
Ok it does bring extra energy to via Venomous Wounds
They function in a similiar way, but deathmark is a huge upgrade
wtf did vendetta bring
must be something i missed in 4 years
energy generation ?
energy regen is not something in aoe
stealth vision 
Well, it adds someting
no it didnt
I thought Death mark didn't bring NOTHINg, but Like I said, extra venomous wound some same all same all
also deathmark does give more energy
yep, you could see the targets if they stealthed with the debuff on
I figured since you say its an upgrade
but saying that vendetta gave energy and it mattered in aoe is completely false
regardless, we have IC now, and that is the gamechanger for me
In aoe situations, did you try it already? @strange python
it feels so good 
They should line up pretty fair
Cause if you engage a boss, you want to death mark since you have a improved Garrot available without Vanish
Since they’re both 2m
Starting from here, you have both spell non synchro
or you don't death mark on the pull, and wait for the stealth-garrot to fade to then vanish and death mark

You don’t deathmark automatically
hello guys!
Greetings
deahtmark like 4 seconds into the pull and then vanish is like 12 seconds after
Is it actually? Or is it weird? I had to close all background processes for mine to update last night
All battlenet**
It's on a "initializating" infinite lopp
and doesn't update
Closed everything too
still nothing
Yeah try closing all background processes rq. Even after you close battlenet, it “remains open”
Did that
and relaunch and wait
and nothing
or
there was a tweet about this last time it happened
there's like some prepatch download shit
from like
BFA


||Play Mage|| 
@next edge try closing bnet launcher and deleting all the indexes in this folder
it should redownload them
well the relevant ones
@next edge go into task manager and end Blizzard Updater (or something like that) after closing the bnet client. Usually works for me.
Just delete the folder?
Tried that but sadly doesnt work either
Doesn't work either

Scan and repair?
Everything, yeah

What poisons am I using? 
Amp > deadly > instant
Does Duskwalker works on Deathmark ?
nice

Since i deleted the files @gusty mirage
it still doesnt work
but now its downloading 1006 files
but the last 2 big patches scuffed something in battle net

Community figure? More like community menace
Fix it, Lamb?
I'm having the same issue. I'm tempted to copy my wtf/addons folder and just do a fresh install
It should be a hang up.
No cap. Last time that happened to me, simple restart works usually.
I restarted my computer, I tried to repair, none of it worked

I'm at 956/1006 though. So hopefully it will be fine after this.
As long as it moves to reclaiming space, you should be okay.
That’s the real fear of god moment.
Was there a new pin?
Ah.
Because the infamous legendary question was asked a few times in a row
Yes man
NF canceled.
📈
Friendship with NF ended, exsanguinate is my new best friend now
just
This mf swore I was gaslighting his ass
remove all talents
okay crazy person
back to the white padded room
Sepsis was fine, it was no sbs tho
Bone spike buddy
sepsis was trash
It's fire and forget big single target number
no
it always was
the bfa experience
Nah sepsis is cool
rupture garrote envenom toxic blade vendetta
everyone remembers sepsis + reworked conduit + toxic onslaught
it was literally trash
thats all i need
Cool is a stretch
It may suck but it's cool
45 apm
the only reason we ever played night fae was because the soulbinds were strong in 9.0
living the life
stop it
No I ran sepsis 9.0

I mean yeah
if you played night fae after 9.0.5 you were throwing
He said the thing
I didnt play rogue after 9.0.5
Necrolord supremacy 
:>
loser
Not again
Stinky.
Varas we're slowly losing homie status
=-=-=-=-=-=
Bro?
I was gonna show you my pen collection
youre not an actual rogue player? im betrayed.
I AM
Ahri tank main.
Wait no
and then you played... vdh
That means ahri is the most sane mf here
No, BDK s3 for keys
The quitting, not that part
Rogue raid
Sniff sniff….
Don’t bully guys wtf
Vdh for s1 df

Only time I quit Sin was 9.0…
Im playing sin in raid
Ur io says otherwise mister varas 🤨
But I'm vdh for title
Mine says 250 score for Sin
It says a lot of outlaw and sub in shadowlands buddy
it doesnt
🤨🤨
I healed more keys on alts than games play as Sin in M+
Please hold


stalker
This man has a family, stop!
get off my d**k
yeah man's fried
Ur telling me for three seasons assassination wasn’t your main and you’re clowning someone else for the same 🤨
it literally was
If you ain’t dick ridin’ your friends, are they really your friends?
?????
seems pretty good to me

yeah after a certain point you don't want to int key prog
Oxi is getting the Mr.Instigator award.
you want him to follow in the footsteps of Mr. Fan of Knives in ST himself?

Stop.
We dare not speak his name
Maybelukewarmx
Wait, who is that?
Literally the Voldemort of assassination 
Did he go Poison Katar?
stop bullying varas
PotentiallychillyZ
holy fuck i played a lot of outlaw in s1
no
You gotta run that logic by me.
his brain got poisoned katared
i guess thats what happens when assa is completely unplayable for half the season
How did you come to the conclusion….
I love varas tho 
No shot….
🫡 🥰
@oak sky help
S1 meant you had a brain.
No one should have ran assassination that season 
Dude, y’all are gonna make me kiss you on the lips.

Gonna make me say something bromosexual.
as soon as assassination got buffed & necro was nice
I played it
s2 was redemption though
I meant for the first half
Like he said 
It was literally peen and Deï in m+ and that was it
yea i stopped playing m+ later in the season
S2 sin was fun
"fun"
S3 affix 
S1 breakdown for me
Whatup

@timid cloud doesn't believe there was fan of knives usage in ST by mr. lukewarm
You’d have to dig for mine, I’m going back to work.
I mean I was asking what the mental illness was behind that?
Its actually good to fill your cp
????
Feelcraft
HUH
Anyway, don’t bully people for liking different things was the point 
OKAY, I’m logging out.
It just works
I gotta hear more of this later….
the blessed s3 cos drop
necrolord on guardian
L
Play NF one last time buddy
3 runs were for a friend
I will, for you. Promise it’ll get R1
Oh are we talking about verycold fok single target?
Sub in sofo L
cydone should love him
the man played night fae sin in keys in s2 and s3

Yes man
That’s how you know it’s a banger day
????
Indeed
even if they like balance druid?
"Sub in sofo L"
AHAHAHHAHA
LMFAO
Notice the operative word being people
Cydone didnt even believe it was real
Never underestimate the power of a chiller
what did the legacy quest even do
Dn
🤨 you’re not helping the case mister oxi
:oooobang:
I didn’t say it was better
Me pressing fok when out of range
i'm confused how sharing a quest leads to .1% M+ score
Amen
the quest gave you a buff
wait
what was the quest what was the buff?
is it the stamina / stat buff
yes
LMFAO
dunno tbh, just heard rumblings
this is the funniest thing ive ever heard
no, but i would do it probabaly if found out earlier, its literally for like grimrail etc
hm actually it was stamina its unrelated
If anything taught me the importance of voting it was our decision to put grimrail as a key this season 
2020 didn’t teach you anything about the importance of voting? 
A. Being facetious, obviously.
B. I was 8 
C. i fat fingered a digit.
get zenkiki'd
remember. old blind man
Same homie 
I did good today. worked with a guy from England. his kiddo is 15 and Type1. let him know of a better doctor than they’re seeing now
That is a good, we love to hear it 
hello
its like +10-20k hp tho
He recommended a better doctor for a kid that needed help, that’s the long short
And greetings
no i think the stamina is not from that quest, that one should be all stat or main stat
Have you tested evoker you filthy assassins
oh wonderful
No man
I knew something was odd when chat's flow changed
Then don't it's boring
I disagree

evoker kinda fun at 70
The heal spec is cool. But the dps spec is feeling empty
nothing I'd main, but it's cool
is there any assa rotaion guides out? for DF that is

Method: https://www.method.gg/guides/assassination-rogue
nothing's finalized for DF
we could see a nerf tomorrow for all we know
and it changes talents we take
@hearty junco opener then just keep sending cd is the basics.
Then there’s the answer 
ty, learned some stuff, but is there a DF opener or have one yet not been established?
Everything could change tomorrow
You’ll know close to launch. Remember you have 2 weeks from launch to raid to figure out your ideal opener
time will definitely change tomorrow
but I linked the basics of the opener for ST for you
also APLs are still being worked on and refined
might aswell learn 1 opener, havent played assa since BFA, i have double the amount of buttons now
It’s good to get practice, but guides aren’t due yet. There’s some stuff in here you can practice for now - but if Exsang gets nuked tomorrow, it changed
they will just remove Assa on launch and create a new spec
hopefully

no man. it’s called outlaw. sub already dead. remover daggers from loot table.


Welcome to the new rogue spec, poisonous

i honestly havent reflected on the color, im pretty sure i was red at one point
jokes on you, poisons do no damage

melee attacks ftw
kingsbane hard carrying the color green in our details breakdown
Poison is my favorite thing about rogues

Already bragged about double dipping daggers yesterday
I love POISONS
pepperidge farm remembers.
We should have 20 differents poisons
Super situational each
Just wait till you get tier and decent gear bud
i just want some red ink in my veins.
we should have to brew our own poisons again, and keep them in our bags
Or like a mini game where you create your own poison and choose herbs and stuff
also blinding powder for blind, and vanishing powder for vanish
And the effect depend on what you used in the brew
my dude, we were promised something similar for crimson vial in shadowlands
and we saw how well that worked out

They just gave it to kyrian phial
oh so I get to wait for the catalyst to open again to experience poison damage?
sick
Do people like amp poison?
Yes
Yes
amp poison's neat
I like big numbers
Wrong spec

Came from unholy so envenom got big numbers for me
I thought sub was dead in the water
every sub rogue is crying enough tears to replenish oceans
Our big numbers are hidden behind 35 seconds of dots
only number I'm interested in, is your cell phone number so I can send you feet pics
I mean wait what
why rup > ER > rup?
You have my phone number


true
Having a lot of numbers is pretty neat if you use the old display from vanilla where numbers stacks and flood the screen
Brother that was out of pocket
may I introduce you to a wonderful game that'll fill every desire to see big numbers?
Have you heard of my lord and savior MapleStory? 🍁
Poe ?
Ah got it wrong
Logic is essentially max pandemic for the Exsang
Diablo had pretty big numbers too
So big they just stop displaying
Because it means no freaking sense
no gona lie, I'm so path illiterate but big on books I was over here like "what does edgar allen poe have to do with rogues?"
our legion class mounts were ravens

He would have played undead rogue for sure
Every time I speak to oxi I have a tell tale heart
maybe spriest back when we used the whole floaty shadow orbs with a glyph that made them a raven
Oh yuss
I miss the whole glyph cosmetics thing tbh, wonder if it's ever in the pipline to create more, or to give us spec totems like a poison vials for sin
but that 2nd rupture will only be like 1 cp?
Is there Assa rogue on maple story
Read ER again 
I've always wanted to play MStory properly before - but these days it' feels like getting into eve. starting now? bruh you're so far behind just give up on arrival
I'd try if df wasn't in like 2 weeks
Nevermore
the reboot servers kinda fixed that
Class mounts were dope
also removed most of the pay 2 win shit, leaving the QoL stuff like pets to pick up your loot
I wasn't a believer
hmmmmmmmmmmm
There is no sub classes
then they took my traps, and I was like "yo, I fucking hate this... who can still do cheeky shit? rogues? awesome"
Everything is cool for someone atleast
are you saying i need to snipe rupture on ER charged CP?
Yes
Is this is a crime to play outlaw on mythic plus environment
isnt rup-er-rup garunteed to be on a charged cp?
I find like overwhelming to check rupture and garrote on more than 3 targets
Should be yeah @wary ice
Outlaw can just press blade dance and go pew
i really dont see how it is
Resounding clarity makes it charge 4 in total
and ER does 2 (or 3 w/SF) cp
i need that last point i ER upgrade
Or actually isnt there an RNG where you Do/Dont get your SF crit and the 3rd or 2nd respectively cp isnt charged and u feel like a loser?
it's always 2nd to 5th cps
i dont know why i thought it could be 6th as well
That is my plan. Outlaw for m+ and sin for raiding
my friend, I feel like a loser regardless of SF crits

you're a winner in my book oxi

how do I get the cute whispyr emotes
probably gota join his maplestory community
Awww, how do I do that?

Do you guys think Assa will be better in st ?
As of now yes
gib medicine for flu

Sin AoE being viable again is just 
People need to calm down. Sin will get hit with 30% aura nerf mythic week.

its true (my uncle works at blizzard)

Can't have
be #1. Not allowed. But to fully have proper impact... the nerf will be delayed until the last possible moment.
its true, his aunty told me
For exsang, does it speed up the dots for the rest of the duration of the dots?
yes
pog ty
you wait for them to fall off and reapply, or well last second works aswell
so do we still just send vanish/dm/exsang on cooldown without syncing?
yeah
vanish lines up with dm tho because you use it right before
ig with dusk in prepatch 2nd would line up
you use vanish before dm in the opener?

you can yeah
that feels weird, and i assume it's still double rupture before exsang in the opener as well
it's all so degenerate
You know I'm right.
Are you
No
When I use mutilate or something that gives combo points all them fill up then it goes back to like 2 or 3. Is this a bug or maybe a WA or addon causing this? Its really quick but messing me up
