Mastery isn’t useless on law
its not as bad now
It's not useless at all tbbf
haste can be outlaws worst stat depending on build
I’ve gemmed crit mast just so I can flex between the two
what changed?
probably that too
the only reason why I wouldn't play assa in M+ right now as opposed to outlaw is that on the current average keys where everything dies within seconds everything is dead before you finish pressing your buttons
KB/IC sin feels very nice for being a walking silence-sigil. I don't see most things dead in a single garrote window unless you're like... below an 8 or so?
definitely a magnitude of order more work than sub, but very handy to have
it depends on the comp I guess
I've been mostly playing with a DH and WW monk and their damage is so much more instant than assa
I mean on bosses I absolutely destroy them
tbf I've been playing with some scuffed build regardless
no KB/IC
DtB is fine too, just different. I can't recommend IC enough for like... vaults/nokhud/academy if only to achieve clean pulls
I'm not too fussed about IC I think it's a satisfying button to press I just hate KB
kb big numbers though
aye but if I want a short cooldown big numbers playstyle I would play sub
it's all personal preference in the end I guess
play arcane mage instead

my buddy broke the second boss of CoS on a 9. never seen a boss die in 19 seconds from 90% one person
I didn't even line up my DM cuz the prev pull was scuffed and I had to burn it there XD
as arcane you mean?
yes
aye they pump like >200k dps for what feels like 2 minutes lmao
18M damage. I still don't understand wtf he was doing.
we shouldn't try to understand
meleebrains can't comprehend
anyways it's fucking 4:46 here and my alarm is going in about 4 hours, have a good one ya'll ❤️
I mean... dunked on him for boss 1 and 3 😛
driving myself insane atm trying to figure out what I'm doing so poorly on terros lol
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/imifhZiT5gZKoqmTyqxPTN this mastery trinket has caused Kingsbane to become better for me? did I sim something wrong
3 min trinket lines up with exsang
before exsang
np
can someone help me read/figure out a log comparison real quick?
I'm trying to figure out why my envenoms are missing a lot of damage somewhere
I'm more looking at a like... 2:1 difference... which is probably more than stats? but I could be wrong.
It's also a fluctuating thing that I can't figure out
because my lows are the same as JPC within a margin of gearing/buffs... but his highs are twice that of mine, and more frequent burst windows... and I feel like I must be missing something again for that to be the case?
Hey
i have a question
i never played assa on my life , i start the poutch 2 min ago
i can mainly save 40k dps
on poutch
with 396 ilvl
is it great or pussy ?
does anyone know if you can cloak off the debuff fron cct trink?
What should I spend my sparks/primal infusions on lariat then weapon? I swap between ass and outlaw
i had a few good pulls on heroic diurna and suddenly for the rest of the pulls i'm energy starved and can't figure out why
i don't normally play sin
very confused
i was looking at warcraftlogs and its only worth going outlaw for council
and m+ of course
vers being so weak as sin, switching between outlaw and sin isnt ideal unless your enchanting everything as crit I assume
want to switch between both myself
crit is still great for outlaw
yep true, so no vers chants for free switching between both
hard to choose what is BiS when doing so
probably dagger. primal molten shortblade
thats what im thinking, I could sim but thats alotta sims haha
I went 1H sword and dagger for my sparks, so I can use em for both sin and outlaw (got another dagger from raid)
nah spellblade blizz probably fucked up like they did with wrath classic and spell dmg is bugged or something
the fk, sub is doing more dmg than sin and outlaw now
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
honestly was looking at subt over sin, I aint mad if this becomes the case
Im kinda sad, i want sin to be BiS ST
Can some1 help me ?
I just want outlaw to be nerfed/dumped, I honestly just hate the playstyle
i mean i did some raidbot to know what spec pump more on ST OR NOT
My sub deal more dmg than my assa
wtf ?
isntt assa best for ST ?
yeah generally looking at the logs, sin is way up there
I dont understand why i only sim 48k on ST ASSA
when i do 50k as sub ?
why every top guilde play assa then ?
on ST
probably execute
?
Quick question: trying to optimize my cd usage and better understand proper play. Setup for DM is DM>Vanish>Garrote>Garrote, max CP Rupture?
And then I want to max both Garrote and Rupture before DM ends? Or should I leave the buffed garrote to fall off?
Sub is steady dps over a fight. Sin will creep up during execute because of Zoldyck Recipe buffing bleed/poison dmg below 35% by a large amount

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
i didnt get u @outer marten
Hmm?
i dont understand
During boss execute phase, assassin gets buffed by 30% minimum because of that talent. So they have large damage multipliers at the end parts of a fight or on adds. Tuning is fairly close currently between sub and sin, after reset sub may pull ahead slightly
I think you are going to see Sin start to do more damage as rogues start completing their tier sets. Sin seems to benefit more from it than the other specs according to the spreadsheet
I prefer the "ass" shortening myself 🤣
then our classes specs becomes "Sub, Out, Ass"
Ass-sub, out
which is almost a complete sentence
Lmao
Then you exit like soka
its zoldyk
itsnt get simed on the sim ?
its just before kingsbane on the spec tree
zoldyk ? can u link something or a pic ? im french , and got french game
im so sorry
thats okay
its just below Kingsbane, the capstone talent on the left side of the spec tree
execute talent
So, does DM duplicate your dots as it’s applied, or duplicate dots applied after it’s been used?
both
i simmed with that
It’s the 3 point node above Kingsbane
ideally you should have your empowered garrote and echoing repremanded rupture on the target before you death mark though
sims are not an exact science with numbers, bosses are very different and some of them might have a very long Execute phase where Assa can get alot of value and be stronger than lets say sub on ST, that doesent have said benefit
Ok, so it duplicates the dots already applied then
and the new ones 2
yes, but it will also duplicate subsequently applied dots
in the case of amplifying poison, you will have two separate stacks for your envenoms to draw from
with a boss who gonna die fast after 30% bcs Bloodlust or idk
better to sub
if boss alive longer after 30% , assa
better
you will be doing more damage during that bloodlust though
really dumb question- do you have much worse energy gains if you're in front of your target rather than behind
The pb is : Im a big main SUB / OUTLAW , i have never tuched assasin spec on my life
if you are in front, a lot of your attacks will be parried
hmm no lol
im on a good guild , i want the best for every boss
Ooooh, so it works both ways.
What’s the rule for reapplying as it’s falling off? Should I try to max them before it falls off, and then let them fall off before reapplying? Or do they just add the damage into new duration after refresh?
if i have to switch i do it
so should i learn assa , or i can just sub and fck off
bcs assa get nerfed soon
you should learn whichever you perform better as
^
but what the energy part of it?
why would u have to switch?
for sub, you get energy back from shadow techniques
Energy comes from bleed ticks, haste and base regen as sin
but he asked in sin channel so its a sin question isnt it?
haha yes sin question
we have been all over the place in the conversation
i just had a string of bad pulls with terrible energy regen and was wondering wtf was going on
okay so it does not affect energy regen, but there are many good reasons not to stand in front of bosses
trying sin for the first time in raid today
was too focused on my buttons and probably getting giga parried
sin can stall, if you dont have your garrote and rupture up
and your poisons arent applied
yeah that was the problem too, not having enough energy to reapply bleeds quickly
it was so bad
its super hard to not have em on your main target tho
dont let em expire
but i just had a few pulls where i made sure i was 100% behind boss and it was solved
use echoing repremend to get a 7 cp rupture for only 2 cp, and use your thistle tea charges judiciously
yeah saving tea for critical moments is a good idea
yes, of course
yes on cd on dtb builds
it turns vanish into one of your most important dps cooldowns
u dont have to let em expire, just pandemic em
yes good point
Katarie ?
pandemic means you can refresh them with 30% of their timer still up
its not that important if ur not with SS tho
?
theres not a stat breakpoint
theres not a cap
no magic number
HMMMM
how u sim is too low
So i still dont understand why every1 say ASSA IS BEST ST EVER and not sub
when i sim more with sub
cuz im like 392 and i sim 61k+
haste used to be a great stat for sin, its not our best stat in dragonflight
dont let an impending nerf turn you off sin, the other specs are getting the same 3% nerf
link your sim pls
kk
and they have not said which combo point is going away from echoing repremend
and NEVER use stats weights from raidbots ❤️
rng
now
so It can be either 2 or 4?
so u dont have any raid buff, THATS A HUUUUGE DIFFERENCE
You’re simming with no raid buffs
no raid buff for sub too
but it does change a lot of things
assassin gets a lot more benefit from raid buffs
like, look how much of your damage is magic, dont u think that DH debuff will help alot?
and a lot of other things
Okkkkkk
i understand now
im gonna activate all and sim again
saula u sim 64k
bcs u have 4p
too x)
i dont
I have 0 piece:
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/2bJk5zsv7M29Wzgsd81SnM
ho
only 2pc
No
huge trinket lol gratz
I dont know what that is...
way better isnt it
wait sub simming is coming
LMAO
I was like 
I wish this game had cursed items!
DUDE
Thats my sub
sim
still better than assa
so i should play sub ? bcs ik the spec ?
the only 1 way i should go assa its bcs its better like 10% 15% better than sub
u should pic what u like more and what waht u play better always
even 5%
if you play the better spec badly, you are going to do less damage
Holding hands on the leaderboards 
yeah assass is gonna be better on charts normally in the end because of zoldyck but that means nothing if you know sub and like it then play it and its good
its not like u need to play a certain spec
I also get PI for some reason despite never asking for it
play the game, not the meta
This tier has been so weird

I know you’re a gamer
If that makes it any better
to be honest
everything i know about the games is cuz this discord
u whispyr ceverion seli etc
i was like nothing before i came here, so im glad to "hold hands on leaderbords"
i do rly appreciate
better than the whetstone https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/8H7eayMZtVL2rkdimLsDb5
401 iilvl
kekw
wasn't on dropoptimizer but tank looted it
yeah i still can't figure out why my energy regen is dog shit
is it because alacrity is falling off..?
*sometimes dogshit
haste does almost nothing to energy regen
sin is a slower spec
kk super weird then
i think ebcause i'm sub/outlaw main
too used to button mashing?
sin is a game of chess, intricate and precise
sometimes we are like waiting and chilling cuz we are chad
you plant your dots and watch them grow, watering them with envenoms to keep slice and dice up
Fam I got seal of Diurna's Chosen in a heroic pug, do I change enchants or anything to try and get the proc?
the helm from lw
That the only thing? I know the one you mean
afiak yeah
ty
Okay
And?
Youre spamming envenom during Deathmark
Would be weird if you didnt overlap a bunch
Yeah you should just auto until it falls off so you can cast the next
how much are you all paying for lariat
Hey guys, anyone around to take a quick peek at my logs on a fight and see what I’m doing wrong? I feel like I understand the rotation and priorities, but it seems like I’m doing something wrong consistently based on my numbers
def something wrong im 10ilvl under you doing the same dps
you are missing out on KB off the bat thats rough dps loss for execute
KB?
Idk about “def better”
Im running DTB and assuming the main thing is my trinkets are dog water for that build
And son in general
Dtb is fine
i just am a sucker for Zol
Sin*
Rotation wise, is there anything major that you see? I’ve been a sub main for awhile, but trying to get better with sin
I know I miss the 1st thistle tea w/shiv sometimes but that’s about all I know I could improve on
Whispyr is def better at log reading than me by miles im sure others are too but ill look over it and see if anything sticks out
Garrote > sbs > SnD > mutilate to 5+ > death mark > shiv & thistle tea > ER > envenom
ouch
Vanish garrote at 5.4 sec and shiv on cd after that
Sorry, between mut and death mark is rupture
oh wow thats so different i just realized
so crazy how much that changes from the KB opener
well shit i clearly know dick about DTB LOL ill let someone step in, iv ran kingsbane entirely since the beginning
From there I just keep the dots up, pair shiv and ER if I can (but don’t force it) and pair the vanish garrote with deathmark. Keep all bleeds up etc
Is shiv into ER in opener just objectively better than ER shiv? I woulda thought after the shiv global you’d wanna start pumping envenoms asap
(I know it doesn’t matter 😂) just wanna know
I guess you want to shiv first so that you land on an animacharge cp
Shiv could push you over that
You end up at the same
Then idk lol
As after you hit DM you’re on 0 cb
And shiv and ER both generate
It’s probs dps neutral anyways
Might be better to er then shiv if you dont land on an animacharge post nerf
But its kinda whatever
Yeah fair
Couple hours me thinks
that kamehameha stronk
Yo, guys. In big m+ pulls (6+ targets) is it worth spreading garrote/rupture or do you just spam CT away? This is without IC
Spred garrote and rupt till u feel that u don't need more energy
are there any known bugs with leech from gear not working?
@balmy condor have you tried KB in vault at all with the kill windows on some adds? Or not worth
Stuff dies too quick in heroic imo
Not worth chasing the phantom of a whiff of a percent maybe if the timings are good
i was looking at my logs from tonight and noticed i was getting almost exactly 5% leech (including overheal) while i should be getting almost 7% due to the leech enchants on my gear
what's up with that
is there stuff that doesn't trigger leech?
the fact that it was like 5% on the dot suggested to me that there's a bug, but i hadn't heard anything about it

Yeah that's not it even if thats a thing then
it does not
if your damage gets absorbed you get fucked on leech
it's kinda cringe
is 70k lariat his mats good deal?
70k own mats is insane deal on eu
everyone goes for 250k no mats for 405 on eu
I got the best deal ever, 50k his mats
idek how he made gold
the diamond alone is 41k
yeah that's an insane deal
mgiht've been own diamond
was a nice lil influx
Been farming recipe since reset on at least 2 chars a day
Still havnt even seen one drop
That shit is cursed beyond belief
I'm convinced it doesn't exist, and we're all just imagining it
I should really sell my awakened decay before people realise how dumb they are
maybe I'm missing something in the talents, but why are we vanishing with DM? I knwo outlaw gets haste buff from stealth
but not seeing anythign similar in assa
Improved garrote talent
wdym, casualy spending 500-600k gold for t2 raid consumables, see no problem

and Shrouded Suffication or however its spelled
idk how im supposed to pay That tbh
i know that, but i guess i was just confused where the "haste buff" comes in lol
bro
its fucking nuts
Man I made 700k gold crafting daggers and gems the other day
Don't be poor
570k gold, bought 2x t2 enchant, 200flasks, 100buzzing runes, 50food, 100elemental power pots, down to 30k

what bit do you mean
Why haste buffs with Vanish:
this section
Making crit gem is actually secret tech
i get we vanish for super garrote
I swear not a single person on tarren mill has gone for epic crit gem
this is referring to the Openers that use exsang
the garrote there is the last window before pressing exsang > DM
we go crit mastery on all missives and gems for lariat yeah?
i gotta say man
coming from mainly doing assa in pvp
to pve
jfc feels like a lot to remember lol
jfc?
just free candy
"jesus fucking christ"
lol
can anyone else check out their own logs and see if they had the same issue with leech
i'm curious about this now
the hits just keep coming...bLIZZ.....
im guessing thats not including overheal?
how much leech do you have on your gear?

i saw the raid bot top gear sim. why do we not put the stat gem on the lariat and 2 substats gem?
Gear compare
Good morning 🙂 quick question: how does assa feel in m+ right now? thought about learning it for next week since my group lacks ST...
I think it’s the most fun. The higher you go you get IC for every pack and it feels like I blast.
Strong as mid-late Legion from the start of expansion, And we can adjust to grp comp
ok, how much dps do I lose compared to outlaw / sub? are there sims?
dont think it matters?
Wait does sub sim higher than sin now?
ye
I think they want to get agi proc from neck
But theyre also higher in aoe?
RC change hurt us , yea
best talents for riad?
TrollDespair
pick one of the builds from the faq
they perform similarly
and asssa is strongest spec in raid atm rigt?
theyre about the same
Depends on encounter and if your guild needs cleave or st
Strongest is the one youre best at 
I tried going outlaw for council and holy moly I didn’t know what I was doing
almost like you have to play a spec to be able to play it
Weird
Wtf sub is ahead in st now? Bummer, glad we're still close though
Kind of a bummer given how ahead they are in aoe but that's just how it goes I guess
noooool, fotm roll and all will be perfect
i will instantly know all the ins and outs+have muscle memory
idk what im doing wrong but i cant get sub to do as well as sin 
in pure st that is
nooo

@subtle tundra btw, why is everyone always blowing all aoe shit on the first add Spawns in academy tree boss, when they need like 20years to actually go active
so they never go active i assume
would it not be better to just cleave those, and go full aoe burst for the 2nd spawn
@balmy condor should I go crit/vers or crit/mas on my OH dagger Shortblade if I'm playing all 3 specs?
idk man crit vers I guess
What is "pandemic" i see this word used but i dont see an ability or talent
!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
it's just a game mechanic
oh ok ty i thought it was an actual ability
it actually was a warlock talent once iirc
am I missing something or does shadowmelding mid encounter not proc improved garrote? oversight or intended?
Is there anyone online right now that would be willing to look through a log to see if I’m making any obvious rotational errors?
intended
you can meld+stealth on trash packs, but in boss fights nope, would be to strong
ya
fw is also way way weaker than improved garrote
like, that would be a 2nd vanish lol
W why do you have fw 
i am nelf because of wod rogue
make night elf great again
i don't but for other specs
Did they talk about why they wanted to make rc rng?
Realz commented on it
something high risk high reward yadayada
aka
we want it, suck it up


Man I just wanna play m+ to see myself top dps
Finally as assa
After 2 years of pure pain
It feels good when you beat the outlaw players in m+
no
Df design is so good
wait did they add outlaw in legion or bfa
Too bad execute doesn't matter
For a lot of fights yeah
Even for raz
Legion I’m ps
Legion. Then they made it worse in bfa.
We don't know how tight the enrage will be on mythic though
That still doesn't matter cause if it's all timer based you want the highest overall dps
Platform was covered for us even in heroic
Not execute
Yeah, it's a tight timer from 35%, very good for sin
It's easier to play i think
yeah it looks like it
Soft enrage though you can live quite a while
don't have to line everything up
i was playing kingsbane on diurna
and kept getting the beam during kingsbane and having to run out
which is mega sad
But it might be the only fight this tier execute really matters for
Sin is quite decent at shield breaking too
I'm gonna see tonight on hc
GL
How much time between the shields?
Maybe kb goes hard
A little over a minute
huh, realz did like 200000great changes
for the ST opener for DTB why wouldn't you ER>rupture before deathmark? instead of using ER>envenom
I held deathmark through first intermission and went cds on 1st and 3rd shields
just because i dont agree with 4-5 of them, doesnt mean he is bad/doesnt know what he is doing lol
You can skip 3rd shield if your DPS is good though
im 380 rn man
Dang

Is 4pc that big?
Ye
oh w8, its 390
In m+
not 380
Oh well I've still been playing outlaw in m+
It's 20% bleed dmg, which is like 40-50% of our dmg
Honestly have no idea about assas changes going into legion because it was a dead spec during wod but going into legion and bfa I didn't like most of the sub and combat/outlaw changes. didn't main rogue in legion tho
We don't do splits but a lot of my raid is 400 ilvl already
rogue in bfa was aids because they nerfed and changed every azerite ability and you had to play 3 different specs depending on the day of nerfs/changes
for raid, 2 and 4set are more or less equal, for m+, 2set does almost nothing and 4set is great
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
I haven't been able to farm m+ as much as most ppl
with DT Build u play in raid Deadly, ampli and atrophic posion?
i mean, you also need to be lucky to actually drop something in m+ tbh
Not really
like, did around 20keys and got 3items in total
I at least got my weekly 20 done
Ouch
Actual raid night in a dungeon
just 8 heal the 2nd boss, wdym
Did a 20 nokhud, ended up switching to sin for st on the wind boss
Nokhund is so free
Very hard to live at that lvl
What embellishment do we use on the dagger?
can you go wind boss first?
There's a lot kicks you need to get in packs with large area denial
Chain lightning from the lizard thing one shot me as well
Don't think that one's stoppable
You play that pack with cds
You need cds for that and one more pack in the area
You can pull around your CDs with dragonflying around
only person at community feast 
all healing buffed by 5% btw
they saw resto and Buffed druid

ion back to making sure his spec isn’t op
Hello, what Assa build is easier to master for good M+ progression? The DTB or the KB+IC?
I've also seen a KB wit Poison Bomb build can that be used in M+?
??
Assa worse for M+?
U can play sin in m+
I can imagine when doing keys like +10 and more it will be a good option since the dots can ramp up
I'm playing ic kb like 99%of the time
I am mostly playing Outlaw in M+ now doing around +11/+12 keyas but I am tempted to learn Assa as I really like the type...
Unless ur pushing really really suuuper high keys 25+ u can play whatever u want
thats what I thought...what keys do you play? do you have IC for every trash pack? or at least most of the time ?
all the 3 specs are viable imo
Not every single pack
But most of em
I'm doin 14/16 I know it's not that much but I'm not the super m+ guy I just play with my friends
I rly wanted to try Subtlety but the spec just doesnt feel good to play to me...I am primary Assa but once I get 2x 390+ daggers I rly wanna go more Assa cuz it just seems fun to me 😄
TELL EM VARAS
Ofc you can play but why you want if assa dps on m+ is way worse cuz not good cleave/aoe and ppl wont inv assa on keys so he will get a lot of pain cuz it.
Re stealth doesn't matter
Lol
This is how you know people are clueless
@balmy condor is that normal that when I sim your M+ build (IC, ER), it seems that the sample log doesn't even use ER, like wtf

Not hating just be honest
Assa is monster on raid on most bosses but not m+
Not good aoe kekw
Sure but have you played with an assa
why he has bad AOE? the stealthy garrote through IC has to hit silly hard...
Seen any assa m+
Any idea guys ? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fSP7B8QPqw2PiM2y5JSN3W the sample rotation doesn't even use ER like ... wtf ?
normal single target tempered build.... whats this? buggy apl? multiple ambushes in a row? :/
Can you get a neck with 4 sockets now if you get a prismatic socket aswell? 🗡️
My tank friend didn't know that sin could silence
He hated sin
Now he doesn't even want any other spec LMAO
ambush can trigger Blindside
blindside can proc itself
so back to back ambush is possible
ah shit yeah just read it again -.- reading helps a lot...sorry^^

varas 
Assa is not BAD in M+, damage is just not as high as Outlaw/Sub, but it's much higher than a lot of other specs.
Especially this week we will be having Tyrannical, people may want to grab Assa. Rogues are not alone on M+ and you don't need to have all 3 dps be AoE master, you can spread out utility and damage profile
That said, Blizz should def. buff our AoE because we deserve it
Ic and CT spam is already good
Big dmg on huge aoe
Lol
What percent is sophic devotion?
It is, 45s CD is slightly high enough so we will still lose to Outlaw and Sub though. Lowering it might make us uber broken though
whenever i get stressed at work i just open this and chill watching the discussions
we dont need to be outlaw/sub
its always a) exsang b)m+ c)nerfs or d)BIS
Ur a doomer but our doomer ty varas
Just in general hehe
as bad as NS to proc garrote by a certain rogue 
Ns?
yes a certain russki rogue
went nightstalker
dont get baited
it does nothing
varas was losing his mind cause he wasnt using SND
then we saw his talents lul
still pumping 90-120k
but sin is bad m+ kek
He was playing full buffs group so his dps looked good
!whispyr

Where's a "Refresh All Poisons" RAP option when you need one?
which talent tree do u prefer for m+ ?
I like DTB, strong and easy. Not reliant on IC cooldown
Damage is competitive enough, although I think this week KB+IC might widen the gap due to KB Execute damage

i dont think assa will be played regardless what affix is in play, prob even less in tyra since mobs die faster leading to a lesser overall, and overall matters a lot
Unfortunately I kinda think the same.
For me, assa only feels good every 45secs WHEN THE TANK PULLS 6+ TARGETS
I've been struggling a lot in my 9/10 level keys because tanks refuse do take 2 packs
So I'm holding IC for 5 minutes
This might just be skill issue
Mainly randoms
holding that long def not the play
if you know he’s gna go slow
u just gotta send
feels bad but is what it is
And what's the point IC 3 targets with the high possibility of aggroing the remaining 5 (in 10 yards) resulting in a wipe?
Yesterday in... Azure? I agroed the birds with it
combat**
You bet shit went down fast xD
what are you holding a 45s cd for
The Tyra thing again. Mobs dying faster is better for us. Getting into execute with ic bleeds up is very good for us
just let it rip
Am I playing another game
Problem of playing with pugs mister glar
true but u gotta adjust to the tank
You never know when the tank gonna aggro 1 pack, 2 packs... Or even better, not letting you re before the next pack after he only pulled 1 pACK
REEEEEEEEE
and kinda prayge he adjusts halfway thru to u
lotta pug tanks see packs melt and start picking up the pace
I'm having awful experiences with tank pugs lately
Assa had never been a good spec for pugs
assa shines w coordination forsure
My tank friend is buried in irl work 😢
super slept on
Even my regular tank is like "LMAO SORRY ABOUT YOUR STEALTH"
it's not like you're waiting for an optimal army
think i’m full sending sin for most keys next week
My biggest problem was when I played with arcane and we both used cds on the same mob
5 seconds into kb it would die
Does ic gar with iron wire silence the whole group or Just the one directly hit?
Whole
Again, i see little gain to ic 3 targets when you could possibly pull 6/7.
ya but if you don’t
i see less gain in missing out on 6 uses of IC because you were holding it for 5 minutes
It's always a mystery "will he pull 6? Will he pull 8?! WILL HE NOT PULL?!?"
there’s nothing to gain
Again, I'm not telling I'm right, I've just been having bad experiences with tanks
thats why you just send on cd

good thing bc im telling you you're not right
will he just quit the key?!?! who knows?!?!!?
like i understand you'd rather nut on 8 mobs but
pug moment
who cares. 45s, send it, if it turned out to be wrong spend 45 seconds crying and then adjust
Most common shit that made me hold IC was popping ic in 3 targets and tank mid fight pulls 3 more.
You mean 20 minutes xDDD
i mean, later into season, there will be standard routes etc
Yeah for sure, it's just week one
so you will kinda know your regular weekly 15 tank pulling
and this usually can apply to maybe up to 20ish
All i need is my usual tank to actually play the game and I'll be farming 20s soon
How cringe is our opener after the rc nerfs
Are you playing assa m+ yet
Im not even 70 on my rogue yet
L
I'm having a mental breakdown over how much I hate dh
Get better
Sucks to suck
You could also answer my question
Is it ok to hold shiv for thistle tea or ER so long as it doesnt overcap?
I have a question... regarding the ST opener with KB
"At the end of the opener" we use Envenom, Kingsbane and then Shiv..:
Why not Envenom... Shiv... Kingsbane...? >> Shiv increases the damage of poisions... (+20% damage on nature damage) >> why are we "wasting" these 20% damage at the KB application?
@prisma creek
I can't cause I don't know the answer

It’s not
Well, it is slightly but it’s not a miserable experience. It really just pushes Exsang further down since there’s no guarantee
There’s alaways been some bit of rng due to seal fate. Now it’s just, uh. Yeah
actually playing exsang
wut
i thought everyone goes DTB
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
I mean some still prefer the KB build - and they’re both within 2% 
So real bestie
Occasionally fun
actually disgusting
Kb ic seems to be the go to in keys at the moment
very
fun
Anyone know the % Dmg tier set gives
for raid?

Welcome!
Hello and thank you for taking the time to check out my work! My name is Ulria and I am the GM/RL of Cursed Gifts on Tarren Mill. This idea all started because I wanted to make personal sheet for my guild to get an idea about the new raid and then I shared it in RLE discord as fun info ...
roughly 4%/4%

Guys do u have any good platter profile for sin rogues?
Gonna check it, thx
1 pot of shocking disclosure did 3 times what bronzed did the entire dung
and i like how it was a big debate what embelishments to use omg omg what is better and turn out all of them are a pile of shit
0.3 is still 0.3! 
that's why sometimes it's best to not focus on THE BEST and sometimes good enough is what most people want
In the DTB opener for m+, why is it that Crimson is a part of it on a boss fight thats ST?
Or am i missing something?

Like my GF yesterday considering dropping a higher ilevel piece for a lower one with haste... 
(as a lock)
"wItH mOre HaSte I cAn CaSt MoRe aNd fAsTer"
yes. that's for packs, not the boss. however, you can still throw up CT on the boss because it is extra damage
yeah. you could probably just garrote twice on the boss since you won't get the extra CP from SBS unless you've taken it to give you some snd time and then just follow the normal ST open
so you pretty much just go garrote garrote and then on with that?
Since no bone spike
yeah you could do that. the double garrote just extends the length of your empowered garrote on the boss
ty 😄
how viable is ass for m+? any strong opinions?
any key realy, just wanted to know if its considered terrible
Ofc not
its not
Yeah i like that
as you start to get up into higher keys, IC starts to work out more as far as timing because shit ain't just falling over.
I can’t press buttons fast enough on outlaw so I deal the same dmg as I deal on sin in m+
So I stick with what I know
Comfort matters
for sure
Btw on packs u stealth, IC, garrote, ER into rupture?
Outlol generates too much
but with a good size pack, you can rip IC and throw out 8 juicy garrotes and ruptures then CT spam and break 100k or more on packs
Yep
But then again outlaw can bte with a good roll
Flurry er vanish dispatch
And deal that 100k
yes, or gar>snd if snd is down then er rupture
:p
Great, ty
sounds good guys, thx 🙂
And after that dm prio target?
You should prolly get the CT up before the er rup
typically what i do if SnD is running
Tbh it also varies
For me I prefer the empowered CT over the empowered rup
Since one deals more dmg the other just lasts longer
If I get both great
yeah based on timing and when you're about to pull boss, you can slam DM and KB on prio targets
Is CT spamming worth on more than 7-8 targets?
I will try it. Thank you
its def nice to surprise people when you burst 100k on a pack. most don't expect that from sin
I'm not spamming currently. Just IC>Garrote>rupture and CT once then usually envenom.
Let me try that today. 😋
Just read the talent you will understand :p
Envenom just for snd reset, right?
Pretty much
more engaging
Not the end of the world if it falls off too you just reuse snd
than ss bp spam or just pressing bf
The only thing punishing it is low health pools
BF goes BRRRRRRRRRRR
apply BF to fok
Tier gloves dropped together with leather head yday
we still thinking ER meta after the patch?
I managed to convince council to give them to me over the head instead of giving evoker 2p
Next boss drops shoulders
Everyone on raid knows it’s going to me
Feelsgood
nice
no tier for me. but i do have a 405 shortblade and 402 terros dagger. need one more primal focus to make my lariat 405
Jumped 5 ilvls
evoker dps is gonna be dead tier after the patch, their buff doesnt matter and they're already low
Gonna push 16s today to hopefully get enough to@up dagger to 418
i ran 16 m+s this week and didnt get any gear 
i like how the one xpac i wanna main a rogue finally blizz nerfs them 3 weeks in a row 
blizz mad a only dps class is doing dps
Funny how rogues gets insta nerfed when on top while other classes stay there for an entire season
26 here and all I got was 5 chests and 6 heads
crit scaling for sin is just broken, they need to change soem of the crit talents if they want to fix it, otherwise they're just going to have to keep nerfing us
Both slots taken by tier pieces
unless new ones just got posted, we got 3% aura nerfs

lmao, yeah i got 2 of the same haste/vers hat
oh im not worried its just funny to me
sry
its still fun to play for sure
when nerfs got posted
They could atleast nerf something else that doesnt completely fuck our openers
the doomer flood
ER nerf too
was insane
dont know if the ER nerf matters, but its still there
er nerf makes things fucky feeling
