im sure most people here are positive about the nerf, but it doesnt change the opener
tru
and in the opener, exsang is fine
its a burst cd there
and its SUPPOSED to be a burst cd
the problem was everything after the opener, where you awkwardly used it on cd
i liked exsang
Sucks it’s 3 mins now if you won’t have it for bosses at 35% and below now if talented
on 45 sec
you also dont like dragonriding, your opinions are shit 50%of the time mate

i didnt like dragonriding without upgrades
IM EXSANG lover
make the system good from the start
they killed it 😭
ayo wtf
Oooooof, sorry that actually hit the jackpot prize of a ban
Only 7 am and y’all spitting fire already. Touch some grass
i found a new copypasta
!ban @verbal knot

imagine being that mad about replies after you come to talk shit in a spec that just got nerfed
"nerfed"
Roleplaying in a Discord for a MMORPG? Who does that?
Is alchemy working again?
i mean, it is a nerf, but the best nerf that could have happend
like
Yep
thats why i put quotations
they could also just say "assa 5%less dmg now"
Sweet!
yes u can go back to boom urself like me now,i got boom 5 times today

Unlucky, I wonder where he’ll get his rogue information now
saying "that vastly unpopular talent that is also overperforming gets changed, thats enough of a nerf and fixes some problems with the talent" is the best timeline
i think icyveins, ilike icyveins
Facebook posts
I boomed 6 times in a row, then they disabled it, they renabled, I passed 3, boomed, waited 4 hours, boomed
dude was a nitro booster too, spent money to get banned
Sorry I’m new. What is boomed?
Who got banned
I have no idea what this means, did I miss something 
you'll find out soon enough
Lol ok
my mental

you had a mental?
Someone called mods pdf files MonkaS, I personally identify as JPEG
Some greek dude who decided to follow in the footsteps of another person who got banned
i waste a lots of time and money to get the UPGRADE RESEACH,i thought it won't explode,but it Still and it blow me up in the first time i press the button
booming your table is a rite of passage for an alchemist
im supposed to not play dragonflight until m+ comes but i have to for profession
i dont like this

dont put ur point to it
Dude I dumped all my herbalism knowledge into botany by mistake
a big trap
BY MISTAKE? brother that's what you rush
put it to the right side
There's a joke to be made here but I'd rather not 
Bruh
Really?
Ye
you get to herb while mounted at 40
Well good thing I didn’t go bountiful haha
I paid money, what's booming? 
It’s so interesting to see how people have spec’d. I’m JC BS
professions are too complicated for me
Yup
and how tf do i craft?
It’s as simple as make this onyx loupe costing 200g, sell for thousands 😎
what do those things mean?
I’m similar to you in BS
its weird af that 30points small weapons is not really worth it lmao
idk how to get knowledge
Yeah I’m only going for the 2nd subspec for blades
and this whole profession system gives me anxiety
Same I don’t know how to get it
whis if u choose herb as ur second pro,how could u make the best quality drug
at the start you get it for first time crafts
after some time it slowly becomes weekly quests cus all first crafts are done
i choose jewel to make the HIGH QUALITY BOTTLE
how much does rep matter
for gathering? just gather, then also first timecrafts
i dont want to farm rep
Best part is you absolutely don’t need it for power gains, just put a crafting order up and someone will make stuff for you
some reps sell recipees, as an example, i went small weapons in blacksmith, that means agility and int daggers, but also includes fist weapons, when i want a fist weapon recipee i need the centaurs at renown 13
after that? nothing for rep anymore iirc
Your bottles are of the highest quality

idk what rep i need for leather wrists

thats what i told my gm i go for
ur rich now
is sin more viable in m+ than it was in shadowlands
I'm waiting for a useful alch recipe
yes
I'm so happy i was gifted my Sky golem
i have all recipe now except the potion

500k gold to reach
Sky golem in dragonflight yeah okay bud
What spec do I go into for alchemy ?
why am i punished like this
tbh
Potion?
decade old purchase at this point I think
whichever you want
Ok it doesn’t matter that much then
I went phial, my guildmate went potion, cause we're the 2 crafters getting funneled mats from the guild
same as me
I went Skinning to help the guild, pissed off a ton of people when the Mage is skinning birds in Neltharus 
u monster
Best part was the guy wasn't upset that I was taking his skins or something
You share skinning
He apparently was appalled at the concept of me skinning birds.
You didn’t take his skins dw
That's what I figured but I'm a huge asshole so I spam right-click
Blessed 
well i found jewel can learn alot today,so i buy alots of Ores to select
then i made the bottle to sell
Shame the reagent bag isn't bigger
10 times profit
Mine is just bursting with meats, skins, dust, shards, bones, and feathers
Yeah the fact that they thought 32 slots was gonna be enough is laughable
Every single material has 3 ranks
Takes a looooong time to fill bags
Nice I wonder how that’ll work out
The opener has me confused . We apply garrote and then vanish and reapply it while it hasn’t barely ticked yet?
I keep my Enchanting mats in my Enchanting bag but it still puts them into the Reagent bag 
there's a section talking about why
Ohh let me read more into it
Take a view
At the FAQ
Reading Rainbow
🌈
Ya I’m trying to understand it all . Sync desync, gonna make more coffee
I'm sure this has been discussed already after the nerf was announced but does Exs being a 3min change anything in our usage of ER ? or do we keep using it on CD and try to always have it every 3 mins for Exs ? @balmy condor
alrighty ty
before every exsang you want 7cp rupture + pandemic and garrote + pandemic, right?
I know many in the community do not enjoy Exsang, but the rotation felt nice (on target dummies at least). Between ER + Exsang, DeathMark + Vanish and KB + Shivx2 being on different timers, it always felt like we were using a CD
Should i macro exsang to deathmark?
Would it be too broken if they swap IC and exsang, and give IC 60 sec cd back?
Maybe shuffle the talents a little bit
the capstone is supposed to be aoe
Wow, that nerf was haaard
Exsang feels like a capstone talent
I unironically like that Humanzd
Maybe swap ic and ironwire or something to make it just a bit more hader to get
probably not
put IC where exang is and have old IC spot make CT stack
nice, the new dt build is the one i was running
feeling overwhelmed trying to learn rogue ahhh
I'm just glad that a nerf like that didn't really ruin the spec.
step 1: all the talents are fine, pick some
step 2: the buttons your hit are whatever, maintain the bleeds and use envenom or something
step 3: equip ilvl
step 4: cooldowns on cooldown
step 5: win
Thats why sin is awesome
although I think dtb is gonna be played like
a lot
the m+ and single target builds are pretty similar
It's less to manage with dtb I haven't tried it yet because I'm so used to having kingsbane anyway
exsang should get removed anywas, and get replaced with a talent that adds cleave to mut
😬
Hit 2 mobs with each blade 
you ready for DTB supremacy?
i mean, they ARE aware, and even said in the nerf "we gonna keep looking at the talent"
like
but 3min exsang is ok
thats so fucked
Don't judge me too much, but I prefer playing Kingsbane cause I like the icon very much...
Fr IC is Just too cool to Not use it imo
its not about cool
the biggest thing sin needs isnt even more single target, it needs some kind of baseline cleave even if its a little weak
dtb is the most boring shit
Enjoying assa in mythics, feelsgood to play
dtb is zero gameplay
it sure is more st now in m+
just pay whispyr enough money to make IC look like the best option for m+
it has the weakest st in m+ out of the 3 rogue specs
aint no way
that's single target 2 min
fake content

get outta gere
that's the trade varas
sub m+ it is
Top gear is dtb tree?
let's say I got indiscriminate carnage on cooldown. Is there a precise number of targets where i stop single bleeding them and just spam fan?
ill just run MA in m+ and hope there is enough burst
!wa
Rogue WA's:
https://wago.io/weakauras/classes/rogue (Wago Rogue)
if you're in big aoe you can spam CT as long as you have enough energy per second, which is 35
u should be using CT instead of FoK if u have combo points
Hi guys, i read about this a few days ago but i can't remember in what channel it was. Do you know a macro for tricks of the trade to redirect the aggro to the tank? I'm not looking for focus macro (setting the tank as the focus), just specifically the tank. Sorry in advance if this message is not suitable to be posted here 🙏 Thank you so much
yep, and what about garrote and rupture?
??
thats the way you get your 35 energy

sorry this might be really stupid but why doesn't shiv come before kingsbane?
Man it sure feels good to ask a question
You can make a macro to target a specific named player. Have to replace that name every time you get a different tank.

faq explains
ty
did I not answer gud
I guess i'm playing outlaw now.
whispyr you run the sub guide too right
you don't like single target?
I do not
ah ok
that's mr sub one trick, fuu
have you guys tried running subterfuge in m+?
Does our stat prior change?
not that I know of, let me double check
this might take a while tho
but why
the 3 ambush casts you get?
yeah with ma
Vanish, triple cheap shot can be good sometimes.
you did yes.
ma doesn't extend from subt
When you got time, may you answer in pm? 
I did that a lot on Grimrail to interrupt stupid orcs.
never, my pm's are sealed tighter than a mormon's legs pre-marriage
:(
yeah your getting 30% extra crit on those 3 ambush, and you can follow up with another 3 if you want to use vanush
That's what I'm trying to avoid. I just wonder if there is a command that recognises the tank role or sth like that
HE'S LYING
i usually only do 2 on the first pass
I have no idea what you're talking about I'm going to be honest, I was talking about 3 ambush casts on the whole dungeon
we don't ambush from stealth
that would be giga trolling
is there a way to get primal chaos slightly faster btw?
only trough dungeons seems slow af
im not up to m+ yet, and really im only gonna go to +5 anyways. ATM though nothing lives long enough to even bleed
just to make sure.. we're taking Exsag still Raid builds?
FaQ builds are updated
Ty Whispyr ❤️
Does this indirectly nerf our 4 piece since we are getting less procs of bleeds making the increase damage less valuable
I hope they change exasg
4 piece should have close to 100% uptime regardless
Yes
nvm i thought you meant less ticks = less uptime
But its effecting less total bleed damage
i'm dumb
do i suck or is the opener actually just super hard
So exsang is dead right?
Pins
Is DTT m+ talent build even good?
channel name
Or is it good only on tyra weeks
I swear to god
this must be a joke, and i thought this expan wont be like the last one. rip
whata re the best proffesions u guys think for rog ?
Sorry what?
Being S tier ST is a joke?

THe ones you enjoy!
that's a single target comparison between m+ builds
My man doesn't understand the picture yet he goes full doomsayer mode
EXPANSION IS RUINED EXASNG GOT NERFED
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
They are fine. All profs seems to be tied now
so just go what you feel 🙂
!fuu
Evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz
thats not what i was referring to chill out, just being mediocre in aoe + losing so much st to kb + ic doesnt feel good imo
"losing so much ST"?
like Exsng was literally broken
yet despite the nerf Assa is still the best among all specs
in ST
that's not the picutre he's referring to
is there a chart or sth somewhere for this
no
Doubt so
am i trash or is assass kinda overwhelming with the amount of cooldowns now
both
we are all trash, assa got a button bloat
Does DtB look better in St too now?
was only talking about dtb vs. kb+ic m+ single target dmg, not about the exang nerfs
i've been struggling on the opener, yeah.
still just as close
Give it some time, i'm loving this interaction with lots of CDs.
the overall capstone "meta" didnt change yet
not a lot of specs have 14 step openers every global. just been practicing a lot before raid.
Name of this chan
Good job Whispyr
the name would help, if people could read
For those willing to take the 1.5% loss, which talent could Exsang be swapped to?
hi i cant read
ttk i gues?
@ whispyr what do i do now exsanguinate is ded. Is sin playable? Should i reroll war or hunter? What is the best pet also?

oh really? Actually didn't think TTK was that strong
I have a rash...
GO play BM hunter thats what i did
ttk is peak ussules talent
they probably have to play mm now 

The other choices besides exsang is in the pins
Send audio, He cant read.
Honestly
im so glad about the devs we have
!pd
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
because they achieved close to perfect blaance
between all 3 rogue specs
and you're not " forced" into anything in any content
while some classes feel so.
Thank you for the update in faq Whisper ❤ I appriciate your work
y they're nerfing exsang 😦
Because it’s a dumb fucking talent that was 8x stronger than it should’ve been
As I thought M+ DTB is slightly better with MA, I will try this build out. Seems like a lazy build but its what I personally need atm 😕
do you have this sentence on Copy paste?

hahhahahaha
tell him
At least they're not blue
just slap this bad boy instead of exsang
and nerf crimson vial a bit, so we don't get too broken
Fight me
The difference between these 2 channels
1v1 me m8
U can see me im sub
Before exsang nerf that is

I hope they do something for pvp, looking a bit rough with 3 min exsang
Delete pvp
pvp is just here for cool transmog
isn't sub the pvp spec
Now it def is
Im sure all 3 rogues wh oplay pvp are madge
Sin looked very close before
Also they nerfed the omega broken ER dmg
Played some skirmishes yesterday, double sub in atleast 75% of the games
idk wtf that was
Well time to finally do my alchemy experiments
Hope for u
I got nothing
delete me
gently deletes
Wait which phials were we looking to go with again?
haste risers
corrupting red thing or if you're spooked you go generic ice boy
whatever the names are
oh
Got that on my first one
I mean it's probably the default pick
speed is the best tertiary according to @marble hemlock
Speed = super bis
15 in and still no boom
Can we get crimsom heal to affect party members? We hav ironbark why not some tank healing too
What is different?
Is the DTB build the higher haste build or lower?
some talent tweaks and haste gained a little
oh
dtb is faster
that doesn't really mean more haste
Your pin said something about haste % effecting the balance of those builds
That ur a great person a deserves better
yeah, more haste favors bleed builds generally
but it's not REALLLLYYYY a concern I think
it can be though since the builds are within like 0.2%
so outside of the opener, you should envenom > shiv > kingsbane, am i understanding the faq right?
can cause some flip-flopping so I'm just covering the bases
Back in the day I liked exang because you could fit longer duration bleeds into a short duration buff window.
An 18sec rupture cut in half, fit into a 10s stat trinket. Made for some beefy fun.
At 3min exang, we get some 1min pvp trinket alignment probably. Anyway good post.
yeh pretty much whatever order you'd like
Whispyr - do you ever sleep?
not when shitshows like this happen
but I think I'm done with most of the research I wanted to do
it's okay, all the fotm are gonna be back to DH soon
I would send you brownies if I could.
so it's naptime
you don't see exsang 20 min cd nerf every day...
set alarm for 3 hours from now
alchemy to boom
@balmy condor thoughts on the nerf to ur sleep pattern from 45 sec to 3min?
That's a buff
honestly about 2 min 15 sec less productive
kinda bad nerf
noted
so crit>master>haste~>= vers?
I think I wrote crit > mastery >= haste > vers
but I can't remember
it's in faq
here's single target and dslice stat plots starting from 0 all stat
So haste is garbage now?
Why garbage
Seems like it scales terribly.
yes it's tied for our second best stat, avoid it permanently or you will die
it's better
What about if I have 34% crit?
Then you win
also hi qtie @balmy condor
do i die if i have 35% crit?
the picture is from 0 stat to 5000, you realize that right
until next expansion
34% is when you start scaling
Don't read this whispyr ur gonna die;-;
If you wish
over the course of a 5000 stat increase, which is past the levels you could get in current patch, you are looking at a difference in scaling of 850dps over a spread of 15000
So in M+ when we go to do the ST opener w/o Exsang, if we aren't talented into SBS, what do we replace that with? Idk if I saw anything in the FAQ about that
it's literally a 5% spread between stats
for 5000 stat
that's not scaling that's accidentally veering 2 inches left while driving
nothing, you just skip it
And stats are not an island. Seal fate likes crit, and energy likes haste. That's why we get both.
Is the exsang nerf gonna change talents at all? Or is it just gonna kinda feel bad on long fights now
You can choose not to take it at a smaller hit to overall now
Those stat charts are neat but can confuse people. We used them to find break points where the slope would change up or down.
Is it really not worth using thistle tea in the opener for the last 6 seconds of kingsbane for the mastery?
!sims
Simulations:
Herodamage: https://www.herodamage.com/rogue/
Bloodmallet: https://bloodmallet.com/index.html
So can we use vers so we can play outlaw sub in secret with the same gear? Asking for a friend
Tea is good for the energy, the mastery is a small bonus
Man the ER + sin sync felt amazing tho, i guess you can just get like 3 or 4 reprimands off per exsang cd now?
Exsang*
You can use whatever your heart desires
How strong was exsang before the nerf? similar to last season bfa?
WW it is

Shit beat our capstones
It was in parity with Kingsbane
Yeah it was stupid strong and amplified by deathmark
Is this still used at the "non-haste" trinkets spot in the opener? A 2 second cast time trinket during deathmark seems very not good. My intuition wants me to either use it pre-pull or when we vanish
man first they nerfed sylv dagger for leveling and now this, and i didnt even touch my rogue yet
You werent exsanging mobs
xd? why wouldn't they nerf sylv dagger
While levelling
Use it after ER
Great stats terrible on use tbh
Yes we were
Bad I guess
Guardian druid is allowed too 
I hate that trinket, it’s dwarf horn/ shark or bust
I'm a DH rn
It always felt so bad to press
excited for blizz to bring back Pre-BfA assassination haste scaling
im gonna level as sin anyways cus im tired of highwayman spec
leveling as dot class hmmm
thought shadow was poo for all content
leveling is fine 
most important part of the game amirite? 
Leveling as ass is nice
I prefer having no CDs to worry about while leveling
making outlaw nice
u just hit stuff
im playing outlaw since s2 bfa kinda tired of it, and i miss sin
tsk tsk
I had a blast leveling as assassination
With evasion up I could giga pull and leeching and evasion would keep me alive
Disagree
I swapped to guardian druid once i hit 65 and yeah, still an unkillable god animal
Yeah guardian is nutty
Sub just kills stuff faster now tho
So much damage too
Every time I’d hit a wall with elite quests I’d call my bear friend

also guardian can proc the cobalt assembly ring plus it does like 40k non crit for me and heals me for 30% of the dam so if i get good procs my st is bonkas, had like 30-40k openers 
The wrathion quests went by so quick cause of my bear druid buddy
He’d pull 4 packs at a time
but yeah sin it is then, gonna be fun
even tho i kinda wished for the middle capstone for extra poisons to be meta
kinda sounds fun
The builds were pretty close, dtb is very much viable
hmm even for dungeons?
So in fact nothing will change next week to talent builds?
I’d hold tight for a few more sims cause I’m sure the exsang nerf will change some things in m+, but dtb wasn’t horrible in dungos
oh thats cool
if its within decent range id like to try it out
no clue if its actually fun but it does sound fun
havoc dh is absurd*
Havoc DH can't vanish when hes getting destroyed
fixed
guys, any specific talents i can macro just to ease up my rotation ? because with the add of Echoing Reprimaid and Exang it made it somehow difficult to do more keybinds.
But go off
Exsang is optional rn
Racial/on use trinket with deathmark
That’s about it sadly
Ye I'm not touching rogue until they fix button bloat
Sorry bb
Thats why i dun wanna play outlaw
Boomer wrists
felt weird in pre patch with 3 or 4 buttons more to press
!fuu
Evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz
Well then, just got teleported from top of waking shores to valdrakken
Yeah I've just gotten used to it now, but I still don't like it
suddenly i had to use vanish offensively in dungeons 
I feel like vanish offensively has always been a thing on sin ? I could be wrong tho
Yeah last time I played sin was legion
Bfa classic 
You had ss in bfa and ma in SL
And ma in legion
So yes vanish has been offensive for sin for what over a decade?
yeah pretty much
yep but not outlaw unless youve played in s1 sl and s3 sl i think
dunno about sanctum, didnt touch that abominaton of a patch
Sylvanas not give you daggers as well?
oh yeah outlaw offensive was in SL I guess
But I've only really ever started playing outlaw in S4 SL
Always hated the spec before that
!fuu
Evaluation Spreadsheet: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz
is it really necessary to use Ambush or it's optional ?
Think so yeah
hey, new to learning assa rog and just checking rotation. can we macro vanish and death mark on one button or is it shit?
Honestly I would not recommend it
You wouldnt want to do that
I see no point or benefit on that
You want to vanish garrote dm
you smart. can i do feast on my alt? it has renown 1
Renown unlocks are account wide, but idk if renown is
🧐
I honestly have zero idea
renown is not, but u get renown rate increase
@balmy condor may want to update the channel description still says “shadowlands” in pins, gave me ptsd
I think u can
Dang there is a ton of key binds lol
Does your Garrote also just don't apply to targets with IC at Nokhud Offensive (the dungeon) at The Raging Tempest Boss Area once a totem is near? It does apply my Rupture like normal, but garrote doesnt seem to work there. Just wanna know if thats a known bug
The first one from stealth doesn't for some reason but you can apply it after. I didnt know if it was a bug or a mob mechanic
I'll up your anty, I levelled as an Arcane Mage. I promptly decided to main my rogue after dinging 70.
Yea, it does consume my IC garrote tho, so I would have to apply it manually, so I go from 8 possible garrotes to like 3 possible ones in these fights
Yeah, it's only on the mobs surrounding the second boss from what I've experienced though
yea, me too.
something I haven't tried is garroting the primary target, then IC garroting the same target to see if it spreads or not.
Gonna try that the next time I am in there
It's bcs of the totems
exsanguinate is dead?
Cause they are immune
🙏
Immune to what? I can garrote them right after
Yea ive noticed that, but even if I attack another mob and garrote it, it just doesnt spread *with IC. Maybe because of the silence part of it?
on ST, why do we worry about casting sbs before an overcap when mut is recommended as the CP builder?
So its a known bug?
Man, how did I miss the patch notes. Sure glad I read the pins. Rip exang
because sbs is more energy efficient
SBS just does more dmg per energy
If you want to reduce your overall keybinds, sure
It all comes down to damage
i see how it is more energy efficient. does that mean we prioritize sbs over mut when we can?
Guess it's fight dependent right?
Just use your charges, you don't have that many
Good to use when you're low on energy
is there a good poison weakaura?
Like.. to remember to apply them?
Atrocityui has that
i thinking using sbs this way is pretty smart. 2 point steps vs muts 2-4 points rng
of course 2 pts could become 3 points with sf, so rng is still kinda there
are these expedition scout's packs one-time loot or they respawn?
is there a codeblock anywhere that we can replace in simc to update our sim's to more accuretly represent the rotation we use in the FAQ?
Sounds like a trap...
You get free dice
I have enough tyvm
!ambush
The set bonus is embellishments, no?
nice, go play with your dice in outlaw then
Who wants to place bets on if Blizz will actually rework exsang or just leave it on this 3 min cd for the rest of the expansion
What if they let you self cast exsanguinate
So wtf is an embellishment then
Balanced?
You could run neck and the 2set??
ye if you have enough of the materials I don't see why not
I can't find any Google able info on what embellishments are
I know they're unique2 and the neck is one automatically
lemme log in and screenshot it for you
I haven't bothered looking at it too much tbh
So theoretically a bis setup would be crafted neck, crafted 2 set, crafted boots.
Assuming boots+2 set aren't sim bait
problem is where would you put the tier set
Helm, shoulders, legs, chest
Or gloves
2set is bracers/belt/gloves, and boots are boots
gotcha
That's gonna be expensive and a pain
So they're finishing reagents or whatever
kind of yeah
I believe I've heard only the potion effect has any real damage impact
Hey, i'm a beginner assassination rogue, and I don't know if it was already asked, if so, i'm sorry but I would like to know which poison should I use for pve ? Thanks in advance and sorry for disturbing you
amp if talented into it otherwise deadly poison
Even in m+ ?
Well now I'm even more stressed about crafting
deadly would be better in aoe
The primary m+ build doesn't take amp iirc
Hm, I think I took it by mistake then
Always wait for garrote and rupture refresh before exseng or is ER buffed rupture the only thing to consider syncing?
What do you mean by wait for
You always want your two globals before exsang to be rupture and garrote even out of pandemic, to force maximum uptime
my question is, how can we run the lifebound items if we run the tier set
and also plan a 2/3 frost
A vanish garrote would be even better
y'all wilding about crafting 
Probably can't. Gut says you'd run tier+neck+2set+some other random piece for the potion embellishment
Idk. It's a wildly over complicated system with a lot of power potentially tied behind it that's not fully defined by wowhead or blizzard.
And I sure as shit don't wanna waste the weekly reagent on the wrong piece
Fang adornments too, idk whats the effect of "toxified armor patch"
Oh that counts? Ok
It doubles the effect of the decayed pieces. Idk if it does anything else
So whats best first item to craft rn?
!Fuu

@vestal wren 👁️
Damn, we are waaay above mage. Arcane sims 71k dps only
are there any world quest trinkets we should look out for? like last expac's bell?
anything higher ilvl untill you get mythic dungeon or raid trinket
the shark one is nice
There have been like 11 leather helms and a mace/sword. IDK what the other rewards are because we haven't seen them yet
I wouldn't waste ingenuity sparks at all until TCs figure out crafting
They're time gated in a big way, which is why I've been trying to figure this shit out
I mean if you're worried about wasting sparks
just wait until raid release
and see where your gear's at
Well sure. That's my plan
But I don't wanna go into mythic week 2 and still not have Sims on what to craft
and hope we figure that shit out 
Well, yeah lol
That's why I'm trying to bring attention to it so the TCs figure it out, Mr Oxi!
while you're at it
Uh oh
I know bdggs former warlock and have it on decent authority that the tinfoil hat shit is right - the warlocks have their sims but they don't publicize them other than for a small circle of players
Do they even have sims ready for Sepulcher? 

They just keep them private
The rwf and top 20 warlocks all have the Sims and apls.
Lore accurate warlock players
considering prepatch bricked it so hard that all their sims only simmed pet damage, safe to assume their seppy sims are still NYI too

It took four weeks into Nathria for the warlocks to tell me if it was a gain to delay dgl for hymnal ramp
Blizz should nerf em into the ground on the assumption that the class is 10-20% ahead until they show otherwise. Cause that's the baseline assumption for the last 15 goddamn years.
i hate nokhud offensive
I like that dungeon tbh
Well that's separate
because the game is good
Bracken is absolute cancer and I'm so glad it's not in rotation
i mean you just cant stealth in bracken idk why
but its not nearly as bad
as just casting garrote
and it not working
cause theres a totem there thats immune to garrote
so it fails on all the other mobs too
there's like
1 mob you can garrote
that actually applies it
its the caster mob
otherwise it doesn't spread lmao
yeah its really awkward
ive only noticed it in nokhud
same on last boss
when he spawns the 4 adds

whats our best flask
this dungeon single handedly made me rethink my main
just absolute horror show
Bracken is easy lol
is there a way i can change my raidbots sims to include the exang nerf?
hey im a new rogue player and trying out dragon tempered blades, which poisons should i use since ive looked around the web and find nothing about it
do i use amplifying with deadly or instant
deadly
deadly is just a better instant
ok thanks for clearing that up 🙂
what's the string for simming the exsang nerf in raidbots?
@sour wraith Fuu posted it in #tc-research
thanks
Does the upcoming 3min Exsanguinate change much about the rotation? Or will we just use it in the opener & every 3rd deathmark?
pins
based and otterpilled
has there been any discussion on whether the fire buff or the wind buff is better for the Primal Ritual Shell trinket?
I'm curious to try out the DTB build, but am super new to rogue. The opener images in assassination-faq are super helpful, is there anything similar for DTB?
Also wondering how best to handle multi-target with the loss of IC
similar opener, just manually spread ruptures after the crimson tempest cast
while keeping up the crimson tempest dot
whats the overall consensus on these nerfs? seems accurate as my single target was wayyyy too good
they were expected
yeah
assassination was outperforming every other spec in the game by 10k dps
in bis gear that is
single target was nutty
yea exsang was way too high of DPS for a talent being so low in our tree
it was comparable with our capstones
i wouldve just liked a drastic number nerf on it, i like pressing it often
so this reels (lol, a realz pun ig) back our ST DPS back down to earth and addresses an OP talent
how is sin doing in m+ compare to sub
Okay? All 3 are pretty competitive.
worse
It was always our lowest dslice wasn’t it? Or was it beating Sub but just barely?
Dslice isn't real
Outlaw Sims like 5k higher in dslice for me but sin actually feels very competitive in dungeons
!fuu

In pins it says it doesn't change anything
Exsang is still better than other options, but significantly closer than it was
Can someone explain to me how sophic devotion enchants work? I see the different level qualities on the AH, but don't see a stat difference for them, all 3 give the same 15 second buff for the same amount of stats
I'm assuming it's the ppm procs? but it just says "sometimes" on all of them for frequency
the tooltip is bugged I should say
i havent kept up with the profession things and holy fuck is it overcomplicated for nothing. Is there anywhere with a decent breakdown about what we should craft?
nah theres no reading on it anywhere
"Exsanguinate cooldown increased to 3 minutes (was 45 seconds) and bleed effect magnitude reduced to 80% (was 100%)."
apparently this was so overtuned that they did this drastic of a change but it also somehow went through beta without any changes whatsoever?
i dont think i remember any other ability in the game ever being changed this much in a patch
its not NEARLY as complicated as it sounds mate, trust me
you go for 1 specific kind of crafting stuff and fully invest into it, when you skilled all you go for the next one
Biggest nerf of an ability I can remember
The weird thing about professions is it doesn't feel like there's much incentive to max them
as well as 80% isntead of 100% now
I'm doing alchemy and everything sells below cost so what's the point ya know

Assa still viable but not the talent
it could also have been a 5%nerf to everything
instead they nerfed 1 ability
that is allready a controversial ability
its the best outcome lol
assa WAS overperforming in ST
Now between assa and outlaw
everyone saw a nerf comming, the nerf that happend now is the best solution possible
Assa still front ?
How far ahead is assa in st than Outlaw? Is it a lot?
I primarily play Outlaw but wanted to give Assa a shot
A lot?
Since its not stated in the channel name anymore
can i ask again without reading pins
ty a lot
comparing to what?

Thank you!
Have to say that if you really enjoy outlaw
the profiles are super close between all 3 specs
so you should play what you like
It seems that way. Especially since my Rogue is an alt, sticking with Outlaw might be the move
there's only 1 pure ST boss and outlaw is not like does 0 dmg st, its farily good too
I will play Sub all prog because I feel comfortable with it in a way that I don't do with the other specs
and despite in some situations other specs perform better, the % is so tight it doesn't matter at all
so just go with whatever makes you happy, honestly
Fair enough. I’ll likely stick with Outlaw. My comfort with the spec will likely outweigh any potential damage Assa would do
Much appreciated.
That doesn’t mean you can’t try and get better at assa
If you don’t enjoy it fair, but Id say don’t shy away from it because you are better at a different spec
can someone please share a good mythic/dungeon build with me please?
@lavish lichen thx
with the change to exsang, is there a specific optimal time to use thistle tea?
Use thistle for energy
and on the opener to keep charges rolling
thats it
I dont think Exsang change affects thistle by any means
does exsang change impact optimal build? like sepsis over exsang?
Not according to the pin Whispyr put. It still better over alternatives
poor ones
Exsang works on SbS
So what half are we in for m+compared to all the classes? Top or bottom? I’m thoroughly enjoying IC but I’m always against you know…pugs so it’s quite impossible to see how I measure up to the field.
I think I'm going to go TTB over Exsang, its close enough
hmm KB+IC build not takign double shiv?
Since when
werent u going out?
I am
Yuh
there was a bug back in SL that like sped up SBS or something if I recall but they fixed that real quick
!fuu

is there a way to add maxed out gear on raidbots to run a sim?
so what was the end result of re simming m+?
Yeah it was on ptr for about 3 full hours
Right. remember seeing a video on it
? We went over this
didnt you just send the st
IC+KB slightly higher overall, dtb more single target
Both builds good
FaQ updated
Dtb is competitive in raid and m+
Why no double shiv with KB+IC? More dmg from having the improved poison application?
All looks close enough that preference and ease of play will win out, just a hot take.
Ye
ok and is tehre a way to save the different talents im simming so i dont have to add them again for dungeonslicce?
wait raidbots shows exsang as a 45 sec cd
is it a tooltip error or am i somehow on the wrong site
First part of faq, I still see 'Exsanguinate is currently as strong as our Capstone Talents and is required in all content. The best options otherwise (TTB or IP) are ~7% behind. Sync Exsanguinate with Echoing Reprimand for a 7cp Rupture every 45 seconds.'
Which I guess is now outdated ?
they'd still sync up like on your 4th ER
true xD
I mean it isnt 3 min yet
if im running IP instead of exsang do i only put 1point into IP? or do i put both into it and take a point from somewhere else?
oh i thought it was implemented
After reset
is assass less chaotic than outlaw?
Only the 1, like the faq builds do
no 🤣
Guys i didn't play assa yet and i don't understand why did they nerfed exsanguinate that hard. Was it that powerful ?
ok thank you whispyr, sorry i must have overlooked them when i checked in the FAQ
Yes
It was a 9% talent that was beating kingsbane point for point
Does refreshed bleeds also bleed faster ?
