sorry babe
So when we give rotational advice, we generally base the theory behind a normal encounter where you hit the boss 24/7 without any special gizmos and thingamabobs. Raszageth as an encounter is a bit different because you most likely want to save your cds for the shields in p2 without blasting them during the first intermission on the adds, as well as holding cds between the shields to get the back up for the shields again.
Improvise. Adapt. Overcome. 
So holding rules and whatnot might not be applicable everywhere and Raszageth is an example of that.
Just do the fight a couple of times and be wary of your cooldowns and you'll find the best places to use them
Also you get 200% more damage during the shields so you're incentivized to sync up with it for selfish reasons too
Same goes for something like Kurog where he transitions every 2 minutes, so you probably don't want to splurge your deathmark on Kurog and have him go immune 2s after.
i will splurge kurog\
Thanks mate š and whats the rule if you donāt know the length of the fight or practice on the dummy? Do you holt Exsang for a minute or Deathmark/Vanish for a minute?
Just send on CD until you get the feel for the fight. Unless you know something specific, like an intermission, is a few seconds away
Generally if you don't know the length of the fight, you can probably just sync everything.
Hold Exsang for Deathmark
A fellow german I reckon
It's what makes it strong, using it once between cds just feels bad.
Only hold deathmark for exsang on fights between 3:15 and 4:15 duration, roughly
Otherwise you're losing a cast of deathmark
Which is a big no no
Thanks a lot guys!
Deathmark as a CD is much more impactful than Exsanguinate will ever be
Swiss but you are right š
So it's safe to just send Deathmark on cd always if you don't know timers by heart
Then there's stuff like holding cds for execute, if you're talented into Zoldyck/Blindside
Sending exsang requires a 6 minute fight
The holt/hold stuff happens often 
but that's a thing of its own
A 6+ minute fight, assuming you also use all cds on cd without interruption.
Alternatively
That sounds so much complicated than Outlaw / Sub but thats interesting
Play sub, learn the scripted dance rotation, mash your CDs the second they come up
The secret is that sin has been a more complicated spec than outlaw since outlaw went Kyrian/dust, and since sub lost it's awful 4set the spec has become simple
It's slower for sure, but there's more to manage, more to be aware of, more to adapt to
Kinda dont think outlaw is complicated, but who am I to judge. I just play rogue. 
does shiv count as a poison application for kingsbane?
I mean it doesnāt have to be an offhand attack specifically
Any ability you cast has a chance to apply poisons
im starting to see why kingsbane is suggested
dtb kind of caca shit if u cant auto boss with high uptime like dathea
or raz
should i think of kingsbane as just an envenom buff window?
nah the value is execute
how so
:)
it gets buffed by zoldck?
oh i see
while still having pretty much the same overall
ive looked at faq but still unsure of how i should treat kingsbane. how do u think it applies to sin's kit overall? the ability itself. seems to me after you set up your initial bleeds, ER, shiv, etc. kingsbane is used late to get a huge envenom burst window
so i should only use kingsbane if i know i can hit boss a lot in next 10-15 sec
sort of like shadow dance for sub ye?
what has KB to do with a "huge envenom burst window"
if u gotta pull away from boss during kingsbane window guessing giga dps loss
you wouldnt apply cds if you cannot stick to the boss for the next 16 seconds
it causes ur poisons to do more dmg
no
You are way over analyzing this
no???
kingsbane DOES the damage
it can easily crack 1 million damage per cast in execute
+like, nera said, if you use KB and have to walk away in the next couple seconds, its a big skill issue tbh
which is giga chunker
like, just Missplayed
ill try it out, kingsbane effect seems good with my trinket too. got a heroic controlled technique from grimtotem which buffs my auto speed like crazy.
this trinket overall is so busted for rogue
has insane synergy all 3 spec
cct is very powerful
true i been playing some sub with puzzle box on h dathea and during platform phase i go from bottom of charts to #1 in like 5 sec
burst is insane
but ive been using storm eaters boon most of the time since they r same ilvl for me
that trinket is doomed
self stun 10 sec has me fighting for my life
yeah sub can extract massive aoe from puzzlebox
Idk I feel like with cloak and shadowstep if anyone can stun themselves for 10 sec it's rogue
But yes
It's cursed
mix storm eater boon with that one phial that buffs u when u stand still gg
ye storm eaters feels nicer on sub since u have 2x vanish + shadowstrike and outlaw has hook. but sin just has nothing besides one shadowstep
i straight up be inting on sin with it
need a replacement
I had it drop last week and got it from weekly chest right after. Was fun. 
if i dont get grief torch tuesday im rerolling resto druid
Understandable
life could be so simple playing healer
sin has 2 steps aswell
ig if u want to talent into two steps
but having to switch talents around for a trinket
this
I pray for your 4p, bleed sin talents feel pretty good to me
u ever popped cloak during air elemental blowback on dathea when stranded on a platform
i need to unbind shiv for kingsbane, jesus
hitting it on cooldown is hard to get out of my system
sounds like u would enjoy ttb
No because my guild is smart enough to leave me on the boss
every boss is ST tunnel boss if ur sin 
no mechanics, no adds, only pipe
might aswell just bench them and get ANY other class
if u dont switch sub or outlaw for dathea ur lowkey a queue terrorist
well ig if u need platforms
if u can go boss gg
oh, step on lego
A what terrorist
I mean IC sin on council is pretty fun
Please donāt tell me youāre a pug andy
50% more boss dmg thant #2 dps feels great
no bc we have a warlock who gets to stay for some reason
I recently had a pug for dathea that wanted me to go IC so I can aoe silence platform on dathea

Man did that tank my damage
prob cus going up also sucks HARD for demolock
my friends are boosted our guild is 8/8n 1/8h š«” but to be fair for 3 of them its their first wow xpac. i have been pugging heroic vault sometimes queueing with my resto druid friend and its like the worst experience ever
sheās destro..
sometimesi just be leaving the discord and the pug
if my death is bad enough
like on dathea i accidentally shadowstepped to her phat hitbox when trying to reach this evoker and just insta died
just left the pug discord
when i was really young i did that in a prog guild and got gkicked
i mean, its normal/hc dude, can do w/e you want and have 0struggles
oh hell naw
there is a reason why a 20man druid raidteam exists lol
pugs are 2 centuries behind
only in mythic comps it starts to matter, and even there its only really for the very high end top20guys
but if you play there, you dont 1trick a spec anyway
i think u are vastly overestimating the average heroic pug
u can guarantee atleast 3 dps deaths for no real reason
1 20k dps warlock per group
Actually comps in nhc and hc matter aswell if you bigbrain gear your alt with starting a group and not inviting a single other guy thats on your token. 
raid leader doing bottom3 healing or bottom3 damage
i atleast did 4/8h in a 6 man of ppl who could play this week and pugged some randoms and was yes p easy. but once u go full pug dathea / broodkeeper / raz
it is a warzone out there
council is funny af, watching warriors and dh leap/dash trought the entire melee camp with circle

you can fish up the frog in lfr
kind of a gamer move
i thought they would disable the hornswog in that queue
Gamer move is fishing him up on mythic
yeah somebody send the frog loot table
what if they put manic grieftorch on it too š¤
Ribbit
Fart
oh hell no
what can u sub exsang out for
with kingsbane
way too many buttons in this talent build for my rogue brain. went from like 3 to 5
exsang raises by apm by 0.3 kind of a lot to ask for
see i was thinking dashing scoundrel
We are close to protoss apm 
Sometimes it feels like most people wouldnt complain as much if it really was just a mut every 3 min
Because it isnt exsang

There is no mercy
yes 
@balmy condor Why can't I hit 2CP anymore
Multiple full ER windows without ever hitting 2 CP 
@balmy condor imagine Exsanguinate is removed on tuesday. Where are you putting your 1 talent point?
Did you macro cold blood to sbs?
cold blood assa 
Ambush is my old trustworthy for 2cp
Even with 37% crit
It just hates me
Or loves, depending on interpretation
Whats your ilvl?
blasphemy
i embraced the 34%
(translates into "i always end up with 34% for some reason")
407
I have more vers and mastery
Bcs diurna ring and some mastery/crit instead of crit/mastery
And I always am at 36 or 37 crit for some weird reason
Okay that explains a lot ^^
always seem to forget, but kingsbane damage itself is affected by zoldyck right?
yes
does that viscous venom bug still exist, that applied more poisons?
No
Anybody got a wa for the shiv duration? I tryed to find/creat. nothing works for me. would like a progress bar kinda thing š
ive come to a horrifying realization about sin rogue

Iām on the edge of my seat
he bailed
He was probably just going to tell whispyr how data works
Itās either 0 or 1
50/50 chance
I got a question, is it better to run this weeks m+ with ic build or to take dtb and use deadly + wound poison?
You almost had me and then you said wound poison
Sneaky sneakyt
Trying to pull a fast one on me
^^
Good troll though
I was dared to write this on sin channel
Thank you sir
But apparently ppl are asking if its worth taking wound poison on sanguine week...
Yeah, itās common for idiots to ask stupid questions
Just tell everyone to do their job
Like sand in the desert
Problem is idiots also are the prime demographic for not knowing things
So theyāre also the prime demographic for asking stupid questions
Itās like a snake eating its own tail
the only good question there is "should i use criplling during sanguine weeks?"
I like your new year style of answering questions Whispyr. Its good fun
exsang sims best with kingsbane ā¹ļø
I felt like you were more passive before
Brother it took you a half hour of cooking to ping me with this?

he turned from Passive agressive into passive Agressive
yes, was recovering from my hand injury from the increased apm i suffered while attacking the animated duelist :/
I couldāve told you that any day in the last 3 months while in a full coma
In fact thereās probably like a pin and 3 faq paragraphs and 2 guide pages that say it too
does the sim factor in the humiliations of using exsang (unironically) after the 2 minute and 15 second cd nerf?
feel like that might lower my overall dps
I think you got bigger humiliations to worry about right now

put me on the sin rogue design team
tiny toxic blade damage increased to sim higher then exsangg. spec saved.
I knew smth like that was coming and you didnt disappoint
np
Brother with how long it took you to design well known info
I have my doubts how youāll perform in that position
next patch the devs might know that some players don't like exsang
The gameplay is shit tho
" Exsanguinate - Very divisive and misunderstood talent. Historically has been very weak" - wowhead guide. Tiny Toxic Blade - Another modifier to Shiv, cementing it as a strong rotational ability. Also makes it free. Seems the author is a fellow TTB enjoyer
Sure itās 3 min
But like
If I told you that you have to puke every 3 minutes instead of every 45 seconds
Itās an upgrade for sure
But you should still see a doctor
I think the community is pretty 50/50 on exsang
They either like it or they donāt

I dont like it but its not THAT bad
if i was puking every 45 sec it would remind me of 3 weeks ago when exsanguinate (very evil and badly designed talent) was simming 8% higher then every other option...
I mean still not outlaw
I use the fact that thereās like 60 builds right now to my advantage
To avoid exsang whenever possible

Do you mind if i see your TTB build?
Amen god bless

I donāt own one of those
Itās quite hard without making it op if you take in to account of sbs cp economy
I hope none of them existed. They bring 0 to rogue lore and make no sense. One is a random giant necromancer spike the other one is some pixie druid disease.
I like the spike
Vampire abilities in a thief for whatever lord's reason.
Tho I like Kingsbane the most of all
Yeah Kingsbane's nice
yeah i agree. the necromancer spike, exsanguinate, and the pixie disease should all go. they bring nothing to sin rogue
It fits the build, fits the spec and isnt awkward
A serrated bone with disease and rot? Sounds like a pretty gnarly rogue weapon honestly.
Couldn't it just be Throw Poisoned Knife instead or some enhancement to that, don't get the need of two ranged abilities.
But it is what it is..
sbs best spell in game, i really miss the leggo, shooting 3 spikes and having 5 charges
serrated bone spike renamed to throw poisoned knife, exsanguinate removed, mutilate dagger restriction removed
i fixed the spec or what
also its a bleed, no disease or anything
last time i checked that more or less is all unholy dk stuff you just described there
I grew up with classic RPG's, I have a hard time seeing a thief as a spellcaster
i mean pen&papper/tabletop is as classic rpg you can get, and arcane trickster is a really popular rogue subclass if you play dnd 
tbf, ALL classes in wow use some sort of magic, rogue/warrior/hunter are just "light" magic
yeah, if you dont want to use magic just unbind cloak of shadows and shadowstep
5% magic dmg increase from all sources including trinkets 
true, tank-able even
hmm
You cant hate exsanguinate if youre a macabre enjoyer, its illegal
Wish Rogue had more apothecary/alchemist abilities, like spread venom dust (instead of the boring poison bomb) and actually be able to throw a vial of poison or a way to overload slice and dice and make attack speed even faster
Pirate does sorta have the overloaded SnD thing right?
Not anything to do with monks, hit combo makes sense. Macabre is akin to the long drawn out speech villains give before they die while giving it. Just doesnt make sense
they couldnt even develop a cool icon for exsang shit is from like wow classic alpha
pirate big gun pew pew :D
lets not bring outlaw players into this they are toon busy trying to fit the square in the circle hole
You just played outlaw in a 15 sir 
Killing Spree is a cool ability, come from the shadows, slash a dude multiple times, but I don't know why it's in pirate tree instead of Assassination (or sub)
two set pumps
Yea its nice, playing all specs is bis
Honor Among Thieves, that was an ability I really, really liked.
If youre not living the double/triple life what are you even doing
does feral druid copy exsanguinate?
Prime RP
feral has the better exsang lol
Lets get whispyr in their disc 
Fuck Honor among thief's, imagine we had even more group only buffs
!neck
not sure if this is the right place for this question, but one of my logs is red (dathea to be exact) and i am not sure why
is there a way i can see why its invalidated?
what would u say is best dtb or kingsbane carnage for m+?
@vapid stone in my experience, its been kb+ic so far
okay
i feel like kb is a bit stronger i do have a 2 set
bleeds definitely kicks in harder after 4set so spreading bleeds and ct ticks harder
We already have a spec that only weird people enjoy

so kb + ic is still strong
ive been spamming academy for trinket so on academy it feels good with kb
only dungeon where i go dtb is CoS
im still new to assasination rogue and feel like i need a mentor
but this discord is good tough
cus that dungeon has 0big ic pulls after the First boss
@balmy condor is THE mentor
i thought he is THE catmaid?
Dunno why he wouldnt be both
thats reasonable choice
so the reason why one of my log is invalid is because the log says i got excessive external buffs like wtf
only received PI twice the whole fight tho
is there a way to proc poison bomb more often?
Envenom more often idk
Just a passive effect, it's not meant to be super interesting or good
@limber lion oh i see, im just struggling with AoE
It does feel good to proc PB in huge packs in m+ (I've been trying out Dtb)
sub is boring and outlaw is weird to me
lol
PB shouldn't be your go-to in AoE
@limber lion i know its just so nice when it does
are the sims on flaring cowl right?
dont have the ring but flaring cowl huge gain for me over bronze grip
Yes
hello fellow rogues, this is my first tier as a rogue main and i was wondering if you guys could review a diurna kill i just did and tell me what i can improve on ? i thought i did pretty good but i'm still a bit disappointed by my parse š¦
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/cwQbCqZXJHL6nWBA#fight=11&type=damage-done&source=141
Except if you added something wrong to the sim
Seems about right
yeah pre sure is cos 418 head > 372 head
Yeah thats a factor and did you sim a dagger without embellishment with the cowl?
Phone is poopoo
hi guys, since we can only equip 2 embelished items is it worth to drop the weapon for the fire helm? or do we just stick to weapon + lariat
i simmed that same dagger but removed the embelishment

K then its ilvl upgrade + cowl being better
Tho you dont have the ring and you still miss a t piece
If you recraft now and get tier head you need to recraft again
I'd sim the crit/mastery head on 398 for your headslot and see if its worth the recraft or maybe just farm the head until further gear
Ideally you wonāt run helm when you have option for other 4 slots
Ideally that is wrong since you will use the setup that sims better for you and cowl in fact sims higher than bronzed/fang
Re read what I posted
thats a good point
i have kinda commited myself to the chest t piece this way
thats if i get the ring
6% is kinda fat
If you meant that you ideally dont run head if you dont have 4p with but without, then you are right. Otherwise I dont know what you want to point out
Yea the combo so pretty nuts
Thatās the definition of the word āideallyā and āwhen you have access to the other 4 piecesā
Considering thats not exactly what your message said... š
Cowl ring is going to be a bigger net gain than dagger embellishment. If it sims bad at this time to drop the 4pc then no shit donāt make the leap
Iām in the same boat. Ring and cowl is close enough to tier that I was more than willing to upgrade cowl early and just fish chest later
I have been passed over thrice for warrior tier so far
Just do it

You what?
I can link all the sims I want
Your 2pc is worth the entire tier set for fury
But doesnāt matter
Their 2+4 is like 3.5% lmao
What on earth is your guild doing
Pretty sure your MW monks get more dps than fury warriors
poor fury warriors ^^
this gif lolol
didnt they somewhat fix fury set by buffing it+warriors understanding that they are shit at TC and heavy undervalued it?
Itās so bad lmao I feel awful for them
They are fine
Yeah itās probably a combined 5% now instead of 3.5

Donāt let them guilt you
They equip higher ilvl over tier
that is what i assumed
Listen, they get two 2H weapons
They can F off
Execute crit is pogger bro
you know that this is a GIANT provlem for fury right?
Crit chance*

Another special from our fav item designer
Yea two giant ones
because 2h weapons need double the resources of 1h stuff, cus normaly you only need 1 of them

meanwhile fury would need 4 sparks for 2 weapons
and 4x the valor then everyone else to upgrade trought m+

Im still salty from the original battle for mount hyjal when a fury warrior got fist of molten fury over my combat rogue
thatās the tax for playing fury
luckily offhand wdps for them still doesnāt matter
weird
If outlaw can do big damage with two 1H swords, why canāt they? Seems like a warrior skill issue
outlaw can do dmg cus its the rogue version of fire mage at this point

if its bad for once, buffs come
outlaw can do big damage to their own brains
How do you damage something already severely damaged?
How do you damage something that is entirely missing?
š¬
Friend told his fury mate to fuck off as he wanted prio in tier as fury bcs he wanted to swap to arms on 4p 
Didnāt know they had those
Every arms warrior went prot
Every fury warrior is still talking over everyone about how great fury is
Fury warriors are the vegans of wow
Fury warriors are the boot wives of WoW. One guy played fury well so they all claim his rank and skill
thats the BEST description i ever saw about the 3 bigbrain specs man 
how much percent dmg increase is the 2set and the 4 set
raid or m+?
for raid its roughly 4%/4%, m+ its lmao nothing/10%iirc

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
The sheets list all the combos
Guys is basic rotation for single target ambush - mutilate - rupture - spam mutilate till you can pop envenom and keep doing this till you need to reapply rupture - rinse and repeat ?
(Not including burst)
no
Ok I am noob so pls explain
well, ignoring 1 out of your 2 dots is not a good idea
espacily when that dot has multiple talents that make it better when used from stealth
For DTB with Exsang, just ignore KB
What dot ??

@shut surge there you go
Y'all using Glacial or Static emp? Read somewhere Static is sim bait
Tepid Vers
orly
use static and pay priests and evokers to move you
Cheaper, more consistent, vers is good for prog
The others just have too many conditions to meet for progress
Maybe farm
Glacial is M+ gold tho
in my server, nothing in alchemy is profitable
Does alchemy sell anything server specific besides trinkets?
phials and pots are still pretty taxed on mine

Guide to Simming yourself: https://www.wowhead.com/how-to-use-raidbots-sims-stat-weights
For more accurate results you should always sim yourself using Top Gear for gear you already have in your bags
or Droptimizer to see which content drops the biggest upgrade for you. Do not use Stat Weights sims to evaluate gear.
Is there ever a situation where you would use Instant Poison over Deadly Poison?
Its a gamble. Its what it is. Same with sophic devotion. If u only craft a few. U most likely will lose. But when u do a tons it ends up very profiting. A guildie of mine made a fortune out of procs. But he also put like 1million gold of material into it
What spec should i play for our heroic Kurog "prog"?
Rogue is worst class for PI, prove me wrong
if you give any rogue spec pi over dk/warlock/hunter/evoker/mage, what are you even doing
doesnt matter, it depends on the strat your comp etc, but pure st assa is fine, you only get one or two intermissions with 2 adds.
Turns out were doing Dathea first anyway and imma play outlaw for that. only heroic and our raid isnt the best
need to pull out whatever dps I can
At our first kill i played pure st in dathea cause "enrage" was tight. It depends also on your comp, if you got a lot of aoe padder, you can stay pure st.
But the best advice is to play what you are most comfortable with, it doesnt help if you play outlaw but does x% less dmg.
Yeah I agree, I'll figure out what the best damage profile is for our comp
I definitely prefer sin

a question - do you lose dmg if you refresh an improved garrote at 5.4 sec
With a non-improved Garrote, yes
ye for example when you do your opener and vanish garrote...so you just let that one run out then you reapply
Yeah always let improved DoT's fall off and reapply instantly after
evan if its with an improved one?
Nah, you can pandemic with an improved one
Is there any situation where Vicious Venoms is better than Systemic Failure?
Its pure 2 target
And you assume that assassination is always tuned to be good at 2-3 targets, which may or may not be the case depending on the raid tier
assa is bad at 2t
That said, assassination is fine on grimtotem but outlaw is also better
Im gonna play outlaw on it
Still a few weeks off
i have no weapons
on hc its st and occasional 2t
well
bladeflurry 60% is bs
bad design
Tbh its p much a st fight
it literally is not
Thats what matters
and outlaw outdps's assa on prio in 2t tho
Just out rupture and garrote on it and crank st
never
I thought you loved pirates of the carribean
How come
seems pretty obvious
Whats to hate
whats to like
Doing aoe dmg
in the most boring way imaginable
And your ST is mkre interesting than most specs
tfw sub rogues rupture does what feels like 20x the dmg assassination(the dot spec) rupture does

outlaw has only the st rotation
Aoe without IC is masochistic
seems like you havent play assa before df
Bleed flurry š“
I have, playing sin in keys prior to DF was for ppl that hate themselves pretty sure
š
If the damage was high you would be raving about it
just pick up APB, with the cast time i assume you use it pre pull?
I would never rave about skillshotting mouseover bleeds as my nameplates drift everywhere with 15 mobs
before deathmark
sounds like you have a shitty plater profile
Plater is fine
apparently not if you need to "skillshot mouseover bleeds"
also what kind of masochist uses mouseover bleeds?
Are you tab targeting?
are you not?
but I mean if your entire aoe rotation includes pressing one button to do damage to other targets
Not if i need to garrote 3 casters from stealth
it would make sense that you feel the need to mouseover
You actually dont know how sin works š
Trying to put up bleeds while those mobs leap around in theater of pain actually is the worst
How is that agreon
Even back then man
Its a pretty low bar to click caster garrote click caster garrote click caster garrote
I miss dotting a little
still no 2 set but got 408 technique + boon in 1 run
12
kinda gaming
I mean dotting frequently oxi
š
Not in the habit of doing less damage for no reason
Oh wait
Im already playing sin

You ever watch seli play keys, mans beating dhs and monks
people making it out to be like we're doing tank damage
sure we're not sub rogue
but uh
neither is outlaw
How do we get the kings and icon
We do more than outlaw at high target counts
Pins
assassination also brings way more utility
and doesn't have to sacrifice survivability for damage
but I still get declined from 16s for not being outlaw
weird eh
With pull sizes outlaw might be stronger overall
But sin is easily the best rogue spec for pugs because of iron wire
come do my 18 jade!!!
Lol day 1 of the week we got 18 cos into 20 shadowmoon
gg
have fun
also go to outlaw
I saw you playing outlaw in keys with minalba
traitor
Yeah
IMAGINE
I did
I need to work on it
Sound like bottom fraggers to me
lol
Like
didn't realize your guild was pushing for RWF
Not for raid
call them losers
where what spec your rogue plays matters
They dont care in raid
????????
They care about
call them losers
well I hope they all rerolled WW & DH
What spec i play in our +18-+20 keys
for the ultimate meta M+ comp
One of them is a shadow priest player
And me and dekai were fucking around joking about disc being shit
And he got so pissed
Like one of our guild members is too lazy to go holy for keys and we were just messing with him
And the shadow priest guy was all aggy
But like yeah im playing whatever spec i want
Im playing outlaw to learn the df version for fun
Im playing sin for fun when i play it
how come majority plays outlaw?
because they're dumb
and see the big boy streamers who are all one trick outlaw players playing it
so "it must be the best"
plus sub is significantly more punishing if you mess up
than outlaw
depends
Or are you supposed to sync to dance in aoe
subtlety might be more complex than assassination š
don't let the people in here hear you
they're too busy worrying about the 0.1% crafted gear & SUPER DUPER global optimizations
to be fair, i think thats to a degree annoying
Exsang :chatting:
needing to actually care about your position to spread rupture efficiently sucks
Hopefully it becomes smart rupture soon
old CT 
Im gonna be honest though i did really bad damage on terros
do gymnastics to try to get CT on everything
(My gear is bricked)
how did CT behave ?
When it was 8 capped
on a target count you rarely exceed, with extended BF range
so everyone in my grp nowadays has this Whispering Incarnate Icon, is it good for assa with full stack?
it's good for everyone regardless of group comp
it's a high ilvl stat stick
Im referring kinda if its better then controlled destruction at same ilvl
true, figured its hard to take into account the other ppl with trinkets
the default option assumes other players in the raid
but its easy to change
moment
dragonflight.whispering_incarnate_icon_roles=tank/heal/dps
just remove the role you want
e.g. dragonflight.whispering_incarnate_icon_roles=tank/dps
should work in custom apl (i assume seriallos did unlock dragonflight.x options)
Doesnāt sub do more aoe at 4+ targets or whenās it overtake it

Much respect brotherman
assassination viable = I play assa
idk im playing assa on kurog
real cool
shadowstep is a crutch anyways
Its not a bug if you go from 2 step to 1 for it to make you wait if thats what you mean
Shit with charges has worked like that forever
No, it just doesn't let you use it at all, the character will unlearn it, even with talent
Anyone know, are we going to be able to convert non tier pieces to tier eventually?
Interesting
Yes
I think they said 6 weeks in
Dope. I like m+ but dont raid much
Inspiration catalyst
Thanks
Your vault can contain tier pieces as well
Yeah the rng gods are brutal
My raid team is over half the same token as me
So yeah, can't wait until the catalyst releases
Supposed to be the 23rd
what are some good WA packages for rogue?
or let me ask differently
what are the cleanest UI / WA packages for mythic raids
!wa
Assassination WA's:
https://wago.io/SJLQKGjMM (Afenar's Group)
https://wago.io/LuxthosRogueDragonflight (Luxthos's Group)
https://wago.io/ByzCxPq-m (Devlin's Group)
I personally use a heavily modified Afenar's weak aura package
Atrocity's UI and his weak auras are very popular, although behind a paywall
Luxthos' has the most functionality over anything else
At the end of the day, it's just preference. Find one that looks good to you and modify it to your needs
i use infexious wa pack but lately it started to drop FPS for me
and i know it is that since if i shut it down i have no FPS issues
also want to get ride of elvui i guess
also tasks my FPS a lot i see
i use this, its jpc plater and a wa that i made based on endwyr's one
What is the best opener
:o
this looks great
i feel like i should be doing more dmg than i am as rouge based off my sims but i cant tell what im doing wrong
Quick question my guild tonight wants me to pump boss dmg on mythic kurog. Is it worth still rupturing and garroting the ad that is up for energy regen and a bit of dmg on it?
Should I upgrade Lariat to 418 or Shortblade first?
Also will this lead to more boss dmg?
The time you spend rupturing and garrotting the add would result in pretty minimal DPS loss
And probably help your raid as a whole
ok thx
Weapon gives a lot more dmg per ilvl compared to necklace
at least for me
Pretty sure that doesnt change much
!fuu

right true. i guess i'm thinking farther ahead with fenryr dagger and diurna dagger
so it would get replaced
At that point I sure hope you have enough infusion to make more
You would keep the weapon until you have flaring cowl/diurna ring
Depends how fast you get the ring
Like you might not need it for a while if you arent early on ring prio
Everything just depends on the overall pace of your gearing
I will prob be using my 418 weapon for quite a while even if it had no embellish is what I mean
Chance to get higher is rly low
only diurna mythic and vault
yeah I mean I was leaning towards dagger then getting lariat up to 418 after reset. need to hit 4 more 16s tonight
So I've been playing outlaw for dungeons, and I'm starting to wonder if there's a point where I'm gonna have so much mastery from assassination gear that either assas or sub start making more sense
When do you guys puzzle box in the opener, and post-opener?
Before dm
exg is used on cd or sync with deathmark?
depends on the fight duration
you use on cd unless you can sync them without losing a use
is it better to sync puzzle box with exsang or hold it for deathmark? (ps theres no shot we hold exsang for deathmark right?
Uhm
Hmm, probably depends on fight timer and whether or not holding it to sync loses you a cast
Probably same logic as exsang
So if you're in a 6ish minute fight then you'd get 3 casts if you send it on CD but only 2 if you sync
what is our best Phial?
It's on the wowhead consumables page
Or if you prefer better numbers I think whispyrs sim sheet gets into it too
!whispyr

Basically glacial fury for AOE and tepid vers for ST
And dont use the toxic ones unless you're insane
is that the same across specs
Elemental chaos is better than tepid I thought
hello guys, somewhere where I can see the rotation with exsanguinate
Faqs has the opener
ty
Damage is very close, but vers is more consistent and also provides defensive value so most people use it
at low gear levels ~375-380, how does assassination do vs. sub... I understand there are a lot of factors there, but overall does assassination need gear to really get going?
no
And it's 5x cheap
poured over pins and faq, didn't see smthn abt it but when is it ideal to send the grieftorch in opener? if I missed smthn, pls call me dumb and link it
you want to puzzle box before dm
and then grief when it comes up
if you don't have double on use, just grief before
yk what that makes sense, i forgot i swap for box as sin too
box before pull, send opener, grief when double on use icd is over
ok ok, ty
when we have two target cleave should i run SS for the double buffed garrote?
then just play that
Ok thx i wasnt sure if anything changed when we introduced a second target
whats embellishment do we put on our daggers?
Fang adornments or bronzed grip wrappings
i mean if you're crafting lariat + helm then nothing
go put the food buff one on or smth
Why assume people have the ring+helm?

because otherwise they would have to recraft
and remove their embellishment off their weapon
and then craft the other items
I'm gonna wait until later probably theres so many loot whores in my guild
Theyll all complain
what
Ill just get it in farm idc
get what in farm
The ring
wdym
Like sure i can craft a no embellish helm
more words
Thats it
i dont understand
do we clip envenom these days or not?
You don't need to play around envenom buff, just make sure it is up before you kingsbane (if you play that) and use it if your SnD is going to fall off (assuming you are using cut to the chase) .
And then as a dump, obviously.
tbh very unlikely you get it, just have to vault it
you kill terros yet? if yeah guild should probably rotate so everyone has 2 vault atleast
Yeah we killed terros
do any of our abilities have different rate of procing poisons beside Shiv?
pooling a little bit can be a small gain but elaborate planning is pretty much a pure passive damage increase
we use bronzed grip on weapon ?
if you have the sparks just skip it and go cowl
if you don't mind recrafting just go fang
is windscar whetstone a good trinket?
yes
ayeeee finally a good drop thenm
!neck
