Opening with it
It’s ridiculous how strong assa st is lol
if you're talented into shrouded and opening with garrote it should give 3cp
you're the first I'm hearing not getting 3cp
back to the good ol days 
maybe he isnt talented in it
and thinks he is

happens sometimes
I never had that bug
hello guys, this trinket good? sim ~100 better than bottle
the UI also breaks if you try and change talents and it doesn't go through
I'll double check it again.
yeh it can be good
Where’s that from?
This good?
just a little bit
Why was exsanguinate so strong in DF compared to previous patches?
because it wasn't competing with 10% haste when haste was our best stat, bleeds got buffed, deathmark exists, ER is played
ya my cp ui is so weird, like when i gain combo points with ambush it makes them all light up like im about to get 7 combo points but then i get 3-4 
Whispyr I'm looking at the rotation guide if I'm reading this correctly we garotte twice in single target on opener?
yes
We garrote 3 times, technically
Man alacrity nerf sucks

heya ive read the pins but this "No change really. If you know it's the last cast of the fight, sync with Deathmark the same way you would in opener.".... i though you never use Exang with Deathmark

Can you explain the competing with 10% haste point?
exsang -> dm
Alacrity
Was 10% haste
u can exsang with dm just has to be cast before dm
Oh, the talent, thanks
right ty
Is it to maximize the amount of enhanced garotte time + get 6 combo points from doing so?
quest i guess, i dont remember
So pandemic garotte slice and end up with 3
Thank you.
i havent played sin since nighthold, i cannot fucking wait to play it in raid again
to the layman <- me things seem simpler now that its an old fashioned CD right?
Well if it’s quest then it won’t be that I’ll
Ilvl
Nope, I have it selected, opening correctly and only getting 1 combo point
It got nerfed bruther
this 3 min change to exsang is gonna make er feel strange, it was neat to have them synergize with eachother every 45 sec
no it got quality of life buffed and is still good 
I am legit plagued by decision anxiety about where to put my LW knowledge based on which crafted epics are strong 😦 early xpacs putting so much simming on TCs that I have limited info is traumatizing
What’s ER
Echoing reprimand
emergency room
Exsang nerf good
Should have known
could also be exsang removed
Waking up to exsa nerf
idm exsang nerf, but its gonna make er feel less cool to press
Still hoping this happens for christmas
Not a bad day
im rebranding exsang nerf as a quality of life buff 
Is there a place where such logic about the spec is all consolidated? I would like to read more theorycrafting.
Time for a name change mate

what i want more than exsang removed is thistle tea, ER, and shadowdance replaced 
Year it’s a joke, an early April fools joke
no but I'm planning on moving a lot of the FaQ explanations into the wowhead guide when things get finalized
You've been shit posting the same thing for like 3 hours
This lunar inspiration but worse...
how did thistle tea even go through
The same fucking thing that made me move from feral to sin

thistle tea is good
Reeeeeeeeeeeee
Because it’s pog
I haven't been shit posting.....
its os boring
Nothing wrong with it
So is outlaw gonna outperform in ST now?
No
thistle tea is such a nice button
Am I the only one struggling in dungeons? Packs fall over before I can set up properly
isnt sub even higher than outlaw on ST?
i didnt like echoing reprimand either so i was pretty underwhelmed

welcome to m0
It is
and now sub and assa are like within 0.5%?
So its not me?
kinda seems like sin is undersimming in dslice
no

I felt so bad last night
Care to explain?
That’s not what wowhead had in the tier list last time I checked
I’m not sure, I think so
My mates were like dude, where dam
I dare you to try and tell me why
Playing dh and ww 
I'm simming 31k in dslice but hit >30k easily
Lmfao nice name@change for the channel
oh
dont tell me that outlaws are gonna outdps me in raids now
playing very suboptimally
you are a perfect gamer 
you're just an ape that looks at the number at the end of dslice like gospel
They are, only you though
got it

Btw can we get your plating linked to the faq or in the wa command? @balmy condor not sure if it’s there but I haven’t seen it :p

LMAO
yeh once I get it updated
im just doing my part to stop further assa nerfs
planning on it
Oxi rubbing off on you
no idea what that even means
it means the number dslice spits out shouldn't be an indication of actual dungeon damage
a serious answer is dungeon slice is a really complex sim
if you are not doing exactly what dungeon slice is simming, you are not going to get something equivalent to dungeon slice
dungeonslice is an averaging of situations similar to a dungeon that gives reasonable approximations of what is better or worse
it's not "you should do 31k dps"
yeah, except we were pulling small and it was heroic so mobs were falling over wasting a lot of ic value
I mean dungeons have varying pull sizes, routes, downtimes (allowing for CDs to come back), etc etc etc. They're horribly unreliable to judge actual damage, they're only useful to compare specs at a very surface level
you shouldnt really use dungeon slice fora nything other than telling you what is better gear
Plz read before responding if you're confused.
idk how new talents work with it but it was fine with old talents
We've answered your confusion and you've just repeated it
this is literally what I just explained
meaning it would be decent for tellling yo best talent in m+
when talents werent as complex
thats an old article but pretty relevant
Comparing dslice to actual dungeons is like comparing patchwork Sims to tarragrue damage.
I simmed 23k but did 105k. Literal goated rogue
lol
I understand roughly how dslice works, I was saying I expected the pull sizes and durations in that dungeon to be less ideal than what dslice simulates
Apparently not
That's much different than what you said, and it's a safe assumption that your instinct was wrong.
those numbers have changed a little btw
dungeon slice isnt going to be that accurate
that makes sense considering the article is pretty old but same applies
if you are pulling a standard deviation above what d slice sims
its gonna be different
!fuu
Evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz
that's why I said from the beginning we pulled small
idk what you want, you seem to fundamentally not understand how a sim works
i gotta sit down and re-setup plater, elvui makes dot tracking 
think of it this way, when you do research and 1 out of 100 samples is much different, you don't make assumptions based on that sample or say the other 99 are mistaken
so were dead spec again, well time to practise outlaw again 😄
huh
yes assa dead, go back to outlaw channel
did this today, but normally is like 32k
yeh still like 5% ahead of outlaw or something, completely dead spec
have fun
don't come back please
enough bad opinions in this channel already

im just mad
about what though
dont care, still blasting in dungeons
I didn't realize exsang was this crazy, guess I'll just use something else now and make my opener less complicated, plenty of nice talents left in that tree
it is a quality of life buff 
sin is like waaaaay more fun
i played outlaw on prepatch and its like sadge
yeh when a random talent is stronger than kingsbane and dragon-tempered, it's bound to get nerfed :P
Still think exsang is the better option, despite being on a 3 min cd. Should tell you enough
yeah but for the complexity it adds, im not that interested anymore over a passive
idk man, those frequent exsa make the build interesting as it wasnt that slow with it
idk i thought i would hate shadowdance ambush memes but im really enjoying it
That's fair
though, i still think too many cds to keep up
ye idk, i never liked exsang the last time it was good which was like emerald nightmare
if they keep up the current path for rogue you will get something that makes it faster cuz its a lot harder to play than it was then
the thing is, if exsang is now within margin of error of MA in dungeon slice, it means MA is gonna be better for me because sims assume flawless execution which I won't have
I need to make a personalised sim that incorporates about a 70% accurate rotation.
old school simc had that
exactly
why dont you just take the number and multiply it by 0.7 
because 70% accuracy doesnt result in 70% dmg done 😄
thats true for individual fights but on average it should
that's absolutely not true lol
Nice #
his point is some rotations are more forgiving of mistakes
its technically still in there
just gotta dig deep
tbh, I understand the nerf but its kinda sad how different classes get different treatments when they are a bit overperforming
Elaborate
depending on how you define a rotational mistake, it also wouldn't translate to 70% damage
but hey, its fine, as long as we are still viable
yes it should or else accuracy is not the word you are looking for, if you are making the same mistake every time then you are not being inaccurate, you are making a mistake
we're still the best single target spec in the game
nothing important, just me casually crying
aka playing wrong
@balmy condor MAKE MY DAY tell me some exsanguinate stuff plz
Might need to throw in a 50% chance I die during pull to the sims too.
dude what?
really? didnt realized that, damn
there's a giga pin
yes, we were that far ahead
even with the m+ builds?
idk, I don't really compare specs single target based on their m+ builds
there's a pin explaining why it isn't
I love when opinions are data driven as opposed to feel driven 😄
No I read it, but in term of St we aren't that over preforming compared to other classes and specs are we?
lmao
I just said we were
i just found the single target damage in m0s a bit underwhelming compared to outlaw but I am probably just bad
This sub is going to slowly turn whispyr into Oxi
This looks so tiring man, stay strong Whispyr 
oxi learned from me buddy
That’s normal. I only play outlaw in dungeons
You're at least twice as patient and nice as Oxi
behind every joke is me screaming at my screen
See. Oxi just screams at the people
Shame outlaws has all the fun again but yeah tis 5 % still fun
Wait isent shamans doing similar number to what sin used to do though? 😒
you know who has the patience of a literal god, fuu has been doing this for years
Outlaw fun? Current outlaw is omega boring.
they are not
not true
Outlaw is a three button spec lol. Ambush>dispatch>pistol shot>dispatch>ambush, repeat.
wish they rather focus on fixing exsa destryoing deathmark when used incorrocetly...
I if you say so then it's probably true.
Outlaws trying to convince themselves that spec is difficult or complex just because it's fast lol
!fuu
Evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz
sure bud
dont fall for the bait
Getting top 5 ranks on outlaw in season 3 was the easiest of ant spec I've ever played.
So we are on par with sub in term of St but sub has better aoe.
spec difficulty: outlaw>>>sub>sin

Seams fair.
Honestly, didnt ask
no one said its complex or difficult
i got #35 sin cn #40 sub and 110+ outlaw for mythic… cause me boomer 🤭
This is what your brain becomes on outlaw.
why are we talking about outlaw in here again
wait
Because outlaws came here to stir shit up again
ok my bad on mobile
sin is also massively better in fights with downtime
??????????????
trolling or.....
apologies
i mean like
i was watchin my bro
fights where you have to leave to do mechanics
yeah I know what downtime means
i would never have said what i said
Cause of the exsanguinate whispyr you know it damm Well the bleed is kill us
outlaw/sub get fucked by restless blades/envelopening shadows
they need uptime
sin kinda doesnt
yeah okay
yw
can you just leave for an xpac again liavre
okay first off, I left for two
We feel you bro
Sin also requires more ramp time to set itself up, which is hampered by downtime. The downtime argument has been dismissed for years.
jesus one nerf and the trolls come out blazing
guys if you are unhappy just play DH surely it wont get nerfed again 

the 3 things I will have to fight while rolling in my grave in 80 years:
- stat scaling
- sin downtime dps is GIGA
- restealths matter
Restealths sorta matter now with IC!
few things bigger than that my man

Stat scaling as in phase 2 sin can still be the best?
nah cause you can just vanish them 
then get a restealth on the other packs

maybe restealths can climb to 2nd place
I'm just saying. Getting a restealth matters more than it used to.
:chatting:
Man I remember back in bfa when tanks chain pulled.
i think that is my favorite emote ever made
Never restealth
stat scaling as in the circus clowns rolling in every expansion to talk about how assassination is bad early in the expansion/patch and great late in the expansion/patch because ilvl and stats and assassination stonks are so high diamond hands we go to the moon

reminds me of fire mage discord 

HOW MUCH HASTE DO WE NEED UNTIL WE BEAT OUTLAW BOYS
corruption vendor amounts
beating outlaw 
and then if you tell them that they're fucking idiots they go "oh but look at 8.3, that was stat scaling"

and you reach out to strangle them through the screen but are disappointed when you can't
99% im dumb but even with SS and IC, restealth isnt super helpfull? for dmg
?
SS is just combo points
big whoop
for IC you usually have it up every pack, and you can vanish if you can't get a restealth
but missing like 2-3 restealths in a 30 pull dungeon
oh no
the horror
It's moreso just frustrating to have a tank who pulls a new pack when the current one has 0.01% health instead of waiting the 0 seconds.
or you just play outlaw because you will get kicked if you are sin 
just like outlaw always needing more buffs than toher classes cause it scales badly. and windwalker.
5% of my garrote uptime is going to be about a third weaker
what shall I do
my key is ruined
/shrug feels bad to not get the silences and DR out because someone thought pulling 0.01 seconds faster saved time
Not making a big difference doesn't make it feel good
my dungeon parses 
How does Mrs whispyr feel about this
man i cannot fucking wait to game some m+
thats good to know
cuz sometimes im like "my tank just chain pull wanna kill myself"
should i stop it??
mrs whispyr feels great because musicians got a lot of individual finger control
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
yeh
I'm a little sad it got put o on the a 3min CD tho
It was a gun button to press
Fun*
is it worth getting a crafted wrist or belt when our crafter wont be able to make necks until s1 week
Maybe
being honest im dumb
i saw that and like "OMG I NEED RESTEALTH" cuz garrote was like alot of my dmg in the dgs
Exsang do be polarising of a talent daum. Reminds me of when we first got it at 400%
Yeah you and every rogue in the last 10 years since that was a talent
Question for you @balmy condor why is this the best nerf we could have asked for? I don't think I ever seen blizzard put a 45s ability on a 3min CD plus nerf the ability it self.
I noticed that Shuriken storm generates full combo points much earlier than FoK
Why is that?
Oh target counts
please dont
Neck seems bad compared to the leather pieces but whispyr ain't simmed yet so TBD.
those were dark days
This talent will never get its peace
just kill it and let it rest in peace
:D
wish they make the change live so i cant test it out in real world atleast
since when is neck bad? thought it was the best craft we could get
What part of the paragraph is confusing
does garrote no longer silence from stealth?
Maybe I can reword it
Iron wire
Yes
ah ty
I've tried crafting it in many different setups and have yet to find it competitive with the leather boots or the leather 2set a single time.
It was gone during prepatch yea
yeah that is really the best part about restealth garrote
I think everyone thinks the neck is strong because everyone says the neck is strong.
No, I'm just curious. What would have been worse? A 5% aura nerf?
jesus fuck that silence is insane now lmao
just runs contrary to what Ive heard in here so far, guess ill wait for more simming
Me too. But I never saw any Sims back it up, tried myself, couldn't make it outperform any 421 neck. But again, this is the whispyr/Koji/seli domain and they haven't done the deep Sims on this yet.
i wonder what the ret paladin discord is like
oh well outperforming a 421 neck is different than thinking about buying one at the beginning of the season for a boost lol
if this is what happens when exsang gets nerfed, what happens when you are one of the worst raid specs for multiple years
My simming showed necklace at -0.4% compared to 421 neck, but 418 wrists+gloves outperforming 421 pieces by 900-1400.
Anything really, dot nerf, aura nerf, other nerfs to talents that aren’t stronger than capstones
There's a lot of "ifs" with crafting tho. The 2set might be a bait because it has an "or heal" effect and TBD how that's decided. The boots might be good with the "100% stronger with toxified patch" effect.
Now i can play secret tech MA. If i get some daggers before raid that is.
For now, we wait till whispyr figures it out
I had this simming neck last week
Hmm.
More than mine showed but I wasn't using beta sim But a lot less than 2set still.
Maybe neck+toxified patch boots? Idk, I get anxiety about it
!fuu

Morning friends
Can you send me your bonus id’s? I’ll check when I get home
Dafuqs a bonus id
Uhhh where find
If you open the profile of your sim at the very bottom
I don't have the Sims anymore would have to re-run, but I believe they have static stats
Raidbots has a history
Uwot
I’m mostly interested in the bonus id’s for the effects
Less so the stats
The stats I can do myself
But the bonus id’s I was using didn’t work
Where's this history
Top right
I get out of work at 12:30 every Friday and Saturday for the last 6 years
I would hope I’m not home
the history only works if you have an actual account I guess but you probably do?
Presumably on full html report page. Which subtab/what number am I looking for
Ive no clue what individual string of numbers is what. Just the item that has the effect whispyr is looking for
That whole line
Could look like
neck=wolfstride_pendant,id=133633,bonus_id=1808,ilevel=421,gem_id=192958/192958/192958,crafted_stats=32/49```
Interesting. I see bonus IDs for every item in the sim except the boots
That’s usually not a good sign
But the boots simmed ahead of non crafted anyways
So that would indicate a bad sign yes :D
At lower ilvl
That would mean the boots are hardcoded at their item id
Which is uhhhh
Not how crafted items work
Ot would be weird for 418 crit/haste boots to be outsimming 421 crit/mastery boots unless it's the effect
The damage effect from the boots is in the breakdown of the Sims damage profile
But I ran Sims on my computer and discord is on my phone fuuuuuuuuuuk
But I'd have to get out of bed
I didn't run it on my phone
Feels like I’m fairly average in this conversation but thank you
Hey
lol
😦 rude
i was getting used to exsang and they do this 
Youre still getting familiar with it
thats even worse because now you are getting fucked still just get worse reward like wtf
Individually those are all English words
I’ve never seen them put together like that though
you are still forced to play bad talent but you dont get rewarded less for doing so
I’m confused
You get rewarded by doing damage
Isn't a higher dps than not playing it a reward?
Perf thanks
okay i guess i didnt know how op the thing was lmao
Magic snowball - 1.6%
88.6 wtf
what was it before then if its 2% now
Retail raidbots doesn't have DF consumables
What we’re they cooking
It’s 9% now it’s 3%
Afaik
Well, 3.5% now but who’s really counting
I want steak
Idk, I tried a few times. It's set to optimal raid buffs and consumables and it's using shadowlands ones
I tried to use the string for DF ones and it gave errors
Think so, but computer speak is above my pay grade so you might want to confirm for yourself in a beta sim
At this point since the expansion mimiron and normal raidbots are identical
I'm also not sure how the boots stack up because of the 100% bonus effect based on crafting mats - not a good damn clue how to add that in
I Just like the red and my Browser auto completes to mimiron
Well. Ticking optimal raid buffs uses spectral agi pot and flask
it seems that cobalt ring proc isnt working in sims, its been fixed in game and seems to do good damage, I think i'll use that over my other blue ring ;O
It was fixed in game yes
It’s pretty good but will get replaced soon I think
The stats on that thing are pretty terrible
Sims might have it updated tomorrow but really any gear you get at this point will be replaced within a week of mythic+ going live
Your neck Sims would make it seem neck+boots > 2set but again, above my simming ability/knowledge
We will find the answers
Also fire helm+first boss ring is kind of hilarious, but only showed real value for pirate
Damn. Miss the old whispyr pfp
I got the dinner reservation tho. So I did something right
Menhera goated
Idk what that is but go off king
What a weeb
Im proud
anyone know if Fuu's spreadsheet is updated with the Exsang nerf? I'd assume not but
I just can’t accept the lifestyle man
It is not
10-4, thanks buddy
Nah but pins are 
yeah I saw pins
Need to get around updating my sheet
figured it would have been bigger than 6%.. not bad all things considered tbh
It’s been a day. You never know. You’re one of the better ones mister rek

6% on a single talent and you expected more
Not saying it should have been a bigger nerf.. I just figured up'ing it to 3min and reducing effect by 20% would have been larger than 6% overall
but my napkin maths are terrible
I expected buffs.
I mean the talents gotta be more than 6% to get nerfed by 6%
6% is huge
When capstones are around 9%
I mean yeah 6% is a big nerf
especially since sub was right behind on ST anyway
not far behind anyway
I have seen the future and next week this time we’re getting buffs
Pass the crack
anyways I'm off to bed. Thanks for the answers lads. Have a good one
I'm new to wow, why does no one take %15 poison dmg node or poison chance nodes on DTB builds where our main damage comes from poison?
is he really on crack tho? arent we like what over 20% in dungeon slice behind the other 2 specs and now 1% behind sub in pure ST? copium for buffs xD
Less damage
Based of those sims and Fuu's sheet, this still has us just over sub, so im okay with that. I hated exsang anyways, so if anything got nerfed, im happy its that to make it more reasonable to choose something else
Could change. Feels like every patch there's some weird shit that pops up a few weeks into the raid
Yeah for sure
We’re ahead still I’m pretty sure unless sub gained like 2% since yesterday
R we behind tho?
idk i was going based off of Fuu's numbers sub was 91k we were 95, lost 6% so should be like 89.5 ish? idk
There was better apl optimization for tea. Post nerf our sim is 92 (pins)
Weird that I’m simming 97 pre nerf then
At this point, it'll come down to damage profiles based on fights
Did assa go over 100k sims pre exsa nerf and pi
At first glance a bunch of the fights look like they'd be strong candidates for outlaw and sub. But, who knows. Also, sin has gigantic execute damage
yeah youd probably take assa over sub even if it was like 1-2% behind cuz of execute but eh
will we still take exsang now that the CD is quadrupled lol
Rest in Peace Exsanguinate
It’s still the best talent
Bro I will commit a hate crime if one more person comes in here with their bullshit
Pls don't;-;
I more interested in the dev not attached this this change is looked at as a temporary measure. What the timeline looks like etc.
exsang is dead????
Thank you for all the hard work you do Theorycrafting for all of us!

You’re very welcome
@balmy condor is sin DEAD now that exsang is TRASH?
times r rough but u will get through
Probably looking at 10.1 or 10.2
is it time to reroll?
Exsanguinate is your meowing, whisp
I don’t think they would emergency nerf and leave it the whole expac
Is Sin still looking to be thee best raid spec?
It’s more arguable now but generally yeah
Oh I 100% agree it wont be all xpac. Im hoping for 10.1, but will temper expectations as a redesign or an entire new talent wont be the easiest to implement I imagine
I tried to Sin in Dungeons but i just do so much more overall damage as outlaw are you guys experiencing the same thing or do i just need more practice?
Yeah I think it’s healthy to expect 10.2 and be happy if it arrives 10.1
Right now things are just dying too fast, sin should be competitive when dungeons slow down a bit more
Sin might be good in high keys just not academy
And who knows, maybe ill hate the ability less with not needing to hit it as much
That sounds about right thank you!
I think sin is going to be great in academy actually
That’s where iron wire cranks the hardest
Use outlaw to farm daggers from mythics and get ready for raid release
It’s what I’m doing
I see academy as a black powder angle
is sub dece?
Sub is good yes
wait so all 3 specs are gaming this patch?
bUT IF iDrOP irON wIRe for MoRE dMG
Yes
Just joking
nice
Then cry when the aff lock beats you with one talent
Fuu’s sheet takes doomblade vicious venom in place of double shiv and iron wire GO GO GO
@balmy condor wouldn't something similar to aff lock's Rapid Contagion be more interesting? easier to get peoples head around how it works, easier to balance and all that stuff? or am I on crack?
Sure
idk maybe that would be a better replacement
That’s like one of the 95 different exsanguinate replacements people have suggested over the last 6 years
Highly unlikely that exsang gets replaced/reworked before the first major patch.
Just be glad they made it less overbearing for now
Well they actually said it’s not
So
0 chance actually
what vendor sells the chestpiece ive heard about thats got a decent ilvl for it
for rogues
Oeh exang's getting targetted. Good
was just wondering
if anyone knew
was told a vendor sells a chestpiece somewherre
that has a good beginning item lvl
for rogue
me black powder
me big dam
me no kidney shot
me let healer die
me proud
me 1st on details
is it outside of Nok
I'm kind of sad exsang got destroyed considering it's been a useless talent for years now and now will, once again, be a useless talent
Still the best talent we have lmao
Is it? It seems unbelievably weak now, considering it'll see almost no use outside of boss fights
once, too
Pins
or does no one know what im asking about
Cant believe its still bis talent after a nerf this huge xd
Idk tbh sorry;-;
about the vendor who sells the good chestpiece for coin
do you want to death mark than exang or exang than death mark
Exsg>dm
You’re the demons I see when I close my eyes
I hoped id be a dead talent now kinda hate it

this was always going to be the outcome
so like ideally you garrote > rupture > puzzle box > exang > death mark >kingsbane ?
Who doesnt hate it
I mean, guess with it being 1% or smthg better is reasonable not to play it? Idk
does this mean going TTB would only be a 0.4% dps loss
@trim zinc Thank you!
what do you guys think of my new sign that I'm putting on my fence gate
Loved it
lol
Being honest on the last season of SL I stopped playing wow cuz irl reasons
And sometimes I just came here to read pins just to know what was going on lol
So exsanguinate can be used as well even with this nerf?
Pandemic
Pins
as long as it doesn't lose you a cast, sure
it honestly still feels like its a 4 min nerf... since youd wanna use it again with Death mark
that's basically what this is
not true
there's no sims currently showing that hard-syncing the two is a gain
I haven't looked too much into it though
but like
I wouldn't blanket statement that
wouldnt that be the reason it was a 3 min nerf instead of a 2 minute tho?
yea exactly
I don't understand
It would still be oppressively strong if it’s 2min
i feel like it being 3 is just weird since i feel like id wanna use it with DM still unless it was a 3-4 min boss fight
there's a fundamental difference between a 3 min cooldown you hold for a minute and a 4 minute cooldown
in one situation, you are actively sacrificing casts
It being 3mins, is probably best for it.
No

I like the sound effect of the poison bomb
It's cool
this nerf will it affect the way we build secondaries? or is it still gunna be crit mastery
rly sad nerf 😦
3 min isnt too much? XD
really happy nerf
i mean im not gunna lie i thought exang was broken
i was macro that and thistle tea for the mastery gain and nuking mobs every 45 seconds it felt way too strong
xd
it felt good for the opener id be low on energy and than be full for the gburst window
plus i use puzzle box so i would usually have tons during a boss opener
idk felt good
Just use it for energy;-;
I can be wrong on that but u can use it for mastery at the end of a fight if ur gonna finish the fight with charges
But whispyr said to use it for energy
But I don't actually know
I just trust him
i mean i just did it mainly for the burst windows
i would usually starve myself before i exang and because it was macrod id be back to full during a burst window with shiv after exang
6 seconds of mastery during an exang window everytime felt nice
you use for mastery if you're overcapping, otherwise for energy
Isn't like all charges of shiv for kb??
yes
well yea so in an opener when ur at 3 i use it with exang and dm than kb 2 chargers of shiv 1 more tea and than i wait for DM again ideally
thats how i was doing it atleast
okay that's fine
I thought you were legit macroing it to exsang
and just slamming
cause that's not fine
U rly love exsg 2 keybinds for it;-;
What about PB in m+?
Hehe
what about it?
i honestly thought it was a busted CD
Why isnt it used
ive never played sin rogue this is my first tier
ive been sub rogue and outlaw before only
because we play double capstone and that requires 10 points after the 20 point gate which is all of our points
It's way cooler
And waaay more fun
For me at least
And we have whispyr
So i know puzzle box is good. But question do we precast it and hope we can get back into stealth? Or do it right after the initial opener and cds?
you would have to drop either IC or KB to get 1 point of poison bomb
and that sounds real bad
do it after ER
Whispyr is mvr (most valued rogue)
so rup ER box rup vanish gar exsang
I dropped 2 points from the leftside to pick 2 points in pb and honestly i love it
That is actually great will slow the opener down a touch which is nice.
hello, sorry im new to this discord, but where are the sheets people were referring too for rogue damage 🙂
Less single target for way more cleave
that's great, but I assure you dropping kingsbane and 1 point of zold is not worth the damage
!fuu

I assume this one
troll sheet
that's maintained by the sub theorycrafter
thank you!
Zold is like insane for dgs isn't it..
??*
it's pretty good yeah
why would you ever drop KB lmao
its too good
i just wish we could KB and DTB but the right side is way too good
Other day u said that on dtb builds we "kinda" slam shiv on CD whats the other scenario?
I wanted to ask it but I forgot
I wonder why exsang is a burst talent now but it wasn't considered a burst talent before
Imagine Exang. having a longer cd than Shadowblades. What a world we live in 🙂
dafuq
there have been plenty of times where exsang was used in burst scenarios tho
I woke up to exsang giga nerfed wat
Well PB is the difference between 40k and 90k pulls for me, while losing kingsbane is difference between like 25 and 29 on single target
Maybe im doing something wrong idk
I also don't play xsanfg
are you surprised
it had to happen
@night delta Giga nerf is like .... doesn't even cover it.
more surprised on the timing of it

that's not how PB works
I expected it to be at s1 launch
good news innit
i expect them to do balance changes any time between now and the raid release
well finally it's not an autopick

They have a chance to balance the damage with another tuning pass now though.
They’re doing another class tuning next week
imagine it stayed 45 seconds when we got tier 4 lol
imagine seeing your spec dmg getting nerfed pretty rough and being glad about it - assassination rogue 2k22
Why not though?
Being strong =good. Being broken=bad
You understand it was broken right
Yes im happy too matey
no one man should have all that power - exsang haters probably
If anyone didn't expected a change it wad delusional

Better delete that
tbf was the best solution
because PB isn't going to do 60% of your aoe damage
someone on this server basically said i'm * super dumb * for thinking it's a burst cd because it increases your dps. i still don't understand why (at least in their view) it isnt
!fuu
Evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz
this is the dumbest shit I've read today
his argument was basically "it's not a burst cd because we found out you don't use it as a burst cd"
Well depends... If your class is purple or light blue there is no problem with it..
so far*
i'm all for them reworking the ability later down the line tbf
preference maybe. imo currently the way exsang is setup, it's a burst cd. exsang in itself is bursty. it doubles the speed on your bleeds.
there was a time I think in legion where your entire build revolved around exsang and it was incredibly broken.
damn i thought i was special
Same
one ability causing 90% of the discourse in a spec
you mustve missed hataro's take on therapy
is shiv a burst cooldown?
?
Oh for fuck sake
do i wanna know?
no
cause if you think shiv is burst cooldown, then sure, exsang is also a burst cooldown
but neither shiv, nor exsang on 45 second cooldown, really made a spike in your damage like a burst cooldown would
Its no combust
^
Thats a burst cd
i didn't say it is, i said I don't understand why it isn't
its not symbols
I'm using it as a hypothetical
I don't consider symbols a burst cooldown either to be fair
afaik symbols isn't even that important anymore
it isn't
Isn’t symbols only 10%
symbols is basically tea with half the cooldown
symbols used to be good
So…no exsang anymore? Are we freed from this curse?
i hate having to micro manage symbols
Pins
fely like it was a decent burst window in shadow lands when you have cov points in it tbh
Ahh mb
Whisp
As i saw this news i started to think about trying sin
Do you ever sleep?
I do, but not for long
He exsangs his sleep duration
Burst sleep windows
real gamer hours
I think my phone says I average about 4 hours of sleep a night

That sounds healthy
i wish i could function on 4 hours
it's either i sleep for 10 or i don't sleep at all
no inbetween
hey, I've been doing it for years and I'm only fat, depressed, ugly, and my acne is awful
can't be that bad
Wish i could do the whole sleep twice for 4 hours. Less time around humans.
I sleep like 5 6 hours and once a week I sleep like 12hours
i see myself in this message and im not liking it lmao
I'm sure my peak physical health has nothing to do with my regular intake of raw garbage and 0 exercise while also not sleeping
I'll just drink a glass of water and it'll be fine

I blame it on the unhealthy level of simming exsang damage.
Eat a veggie every fortnight
Sadness has entered the chat
leave these sacred chambers, outlaw player
classic is ----> that way
I fucking lost it
feral and sin in shambles
they will reconsider 
best option
Yay, bb exsang
Ok now buff our aoe
what aoe?

poison bomb IC 
envenom now hits 8 nearby enemies and can trigger poison bomb on each one
ye sure
What's our st in m+ build @balmy condor
11k
You're a fucking
that's a giga button right there
12,5
I'm not an ape why do you think I'm simming single target in m+ builds

Cause it's an important part of the m+
And the st you do with aoe build matters a lot
Compare to outlaw
what does that help you
can't compare to the best
And ask for buffs or outlaw nerfs

You know who you're dealing with
Dagger rogue is the only rogue. Sin or sub never outlaw.

yes
joker moment from varas
I'm dealing with an ape
Sub is giga fun
holy shit, they fixed alchemy 
true
Sub in m0 was fun af
yeah, I experimented 3 times, boomed, then boomed on cooldown
black powder is actually a pretty nice button to spam
skill issue bozo
is alchemy still broken?
idk what boom is, but im about to find out
same 
when you experiment you have "a chance" to fail, explode the bench, and have it go on a 4 hour cooldown
Everything is still broken 😂
true
LETS GO WE ARENT GUTTED YET
the "a chance" is like 50/50 or 2/3 from my experience
im still abusing reputation gains that shouldnt be possible
it's the worst fucking thing about dragonflight so far
makes sense why a single phial is like 500 gold on my server
i thought i was going crazy about how unlucky i am lmao
sry did i say 500?
all mats are inflated af
Any %number on dps on the exsan Nerf?
pins
most popular oceanic server btw kekw
peck the chins
people are just cruel sometimes
what psychos don't make their main alchemy
me
psychos that are mining/herb and pulling bank per hour
people who don't want to triple RNG for recipes
i make my inscription and make pokemon cards
trade u a charizrd for ur bulbasaur kid
Thanks.
Anyone else do the artisans rep shit ?
you get fucked by bench explosions
you get fucked by chance to learn a recipe
you get fucked by the recipe you learned being useless
holy poggers login
alchemy so sick
3 layers of rng and all of them ass fuck you
still is the only profession that'll stay relevant
can someone remove all pointy objects from whispyrs house
get fucked is the true lesson of alchemy
feel like this man gonna have a bad time soon
i mean dont they want crafting profesions to keep up with mythic gear?
This is rpg, what role am i playing, a fucking victim?
so whats the verdict on Exsang nerf, are we still taking it now in our builds?
will you be my alchemy?
I managed to not get explosions on my second try (or well, I got one early explosion but lucked into the potion of luck right before it.. fortuitous)
read a god damn pin before I shove it down your throat
pins hombre
But I still discovered jack shit after like
12 experiments?
This profession is so frustrating
I literally can't make anything useful lol
holy s... 😄
i'm praying u can soon
alright, alright...
I can make potions that don't level me up
can't be dealing with these phial prices
