you get the point

#

use brain

#

leave me alone

subtle tundra
#

sorry babe

strange python
#

Knowing a fight will be 330 while you're in it can be tough

#

Random deaths n shit

limber lion
#

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.

grim jay
limber lion
#

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

strange python
#

Also you get 200% more damage during the shields so you're incentivized to sync up with it for selfish reasons too

limber lion
#

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.

subtle tundra
#

i will splurge kurog\

strange python
#

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

limber lion
#

Hold Exsang for Deathmark

limber lion
#

It's what makes it strong, using it once between cds just feels bad.

strange python
#

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

formal herald
#

Thanks a lot guys!

limber lion
#

Deathmark as a CD is much more impactful than Exsanguinate will ever be

formal herald
limber lion
#

So it's safe to just send Deathmark on cd always if you don't know timers by heart

strange python
#

Holding exsang sorta requires a 6 minute fight

#

Wait I worded wrong

limber lion
#

Then there's stuff like holding cds for execute, if you're talented into Zoldyck/Blindside

strange python
#

Sending exsang requires a 6 minute fight

grim jay
limber lion
#

but that's a thing of its own

limber lion
strange python
#

Alternatively

formal herald
#

That sounds so much complicated than Outlaw / Sub but thats interesting

strange python
#

Play sub, learn the scripted dance rotation, mash your CDs the second they come up

strange python
#

It's slower for sure, but there's more to manage, more to be aware of, more to adapt to

grim jay
#

Kinda dont think outlaw is complicated, but who am I to judge. I just play rogue. starege

steel ridge
#

does shiv count as a poison application for kingsbane?

balmy condor
#

No

#

But it can apply poisons

#

Which would count

#

:)

steel ridge
#

since shiv is a offhand attack that
may apply a poison tick

#

right?

balmy condor
#

I mean it doesn’t have to be an offhand attack specifically

#

Any ability you cast has a chance to apply poisons

dire lodge
#

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?

steel ridge
#

nah the value is execute

dire lodge
#

how so

brazen zodiac
dire lodge
#

it gets buffed by zoldck?

steel ridge
#

you can pick 3 points in zoldyck

#

which is bigger execute

dire lodge
#

oh i see

steel ridge
#

while still having pretty much the same overall

dire lodge
#

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?

royal lantern
#

what has KB to do with a "huge envenom burst window"

dire lodge
#

if u gotta pull away from boss during kingsbane window guessing giga dps loss

steel ridge
#

you wouldnt apply cds if you cannot stick to the boss for the next 16 seconds

dire lodge
#

it causes ur poisons to do more dmg

steel ridge
#

no

balmy condor
#

You are way over analyzing this

royal lantern
steel ridge
#

kingsbane DOES the damage

dire lodge
#

ohhh

#

ya i misread that

#

ability is simple as fk mb

steel ridge
#

it can easily crack 1 million damage per cast in execute

royal lantern
#

+like, nera said, if you use KB and have to walk away in the next couple seconds, its a big skill issue tbh

steel ridge
#

which is giga chunker

royal lantern
#

like, just Missplayed

dire lodge
#

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

steel ridge
#

cct is very powerful

dire lodge
#

now i just need grieftorch

#

and gg

steel ridge
#

puzzlebox tho...

#

big dick burst

dire lodge
#

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

steel ridge
#

yeah sub can extract massive aoe from puzzlebox

median mango
#

But yes

#

It's cursed

dire lodge
#

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

median mango
#

I had it drop last week and got it from weekly chest right after. Was fun. OMEGAKEKW

dire lodge
#

if i dont get grief torch tuesday im rerolling resto druid

median mango
#

Understandable

dire lodge
#

life could be so simple playing healer

dire lodge
#

ig if u want to talent into two steps

#

but having to switch talents around for a trinket

limber lion
#

"if you want to"

#

You literally always do

#

unless you only have 2p

steel ridge
#

this

dire lodge
#

i only have 2p

#

šŸ˜Ž

median mango
#

I pray for your 4p, bleed sin talents feel pretty good to me

dire lodge
#

u ever popped cloak during air elemental blowback on dathea when stranded on a platform

steel ridge
#

i need to unbind shiv for kingsbane, jesus

#

hitting it on cooldown is hard to get out of my system

dire lodge
#

sounds like u would enjoy ttb

balmy condor
twilit hollow
#

every boss is ST tunnel boss if ur sin GalaxyBrainPepe

royal lantern
#

i mean, yeha?

#

why tell an assa rogue to do its dogshit aoe

twilit hollow
#

no mechanics, no adds, only pipe

royal lantern
#

might aswell just bench them and get ANY other class

dire lodge
#

well ig if u need platforms

#

if u can go boss gg

dire lodge
#

now if u play sin on council

#

u are a different breed

median mango
#

I mean IC sin on council is pretty fun

balmy condor
#

Please don’t tell me you’re a pug andy

lament warren
#

i play sin on dathea and do boss damage

#

you cannot stop me

balmy condor
#

I bless you actually

#

Based

royal lantern
lament warren
#

no bc we have a warlock who gets to stay for some reason

median mango
#

I recently had a pug for dathea that wanted me to go IC so I can aoe silence platform on dathea

lament warren
median mango
#

Man did that tank my damage

royal lantern
dire lodge
#

my friends are boosted our guild is 8/8n 1/8h 🫔 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

lament warren
#

she’s destro..

dire lodge
#

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

lament warren
#

when i was really young i did that in a prog guild and got gkicked

royal lantern
#

i mean, its normal/hc dude, can do w/e you want and have 0struggles

lament warren
#

bc nobody told me u had to stay in discord

#

peak autism moment

royal lantern
#

there is a reason why a 20man druid raidteam exists lol

dire lodge
#

pugs are 2 centuries behind

royal lantern
#

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

dire lodge
#

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

grim jay
dire lodge
#

raid leader doing bottom3 healing or bottom3 damage

lament warren
#

tried to pug heroic they couldn’t clear primal council

#

heroic pugs are doomed

dire lodge
#

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

royal lantern
dire lodge
#

you can fish up the frog in lfr

#

kind of a gamer move

#

i thought they would disable the hornswog in that queue

grim jay
#

Gamer move is fishing him up on mythic

dire lodge
#

yeah somebody send the frog loot table

#

what if they put manic grieftorch on it too šŸ¤”

subtle tundra
#

Fart

dire lodge
#

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 5monkaW

royal lantern
#

eh sure

#

just take master assassin or shit like that instead, dunno

dire lodge
#

exsang raises by apm by 0.3 kind of a lot to ask for

#

see i was thinking dashing scoundrel

jade abyss
#

We are close to protoss apm monkaS

balmy condor
#

0.3 apm MONKAS

#

1 mutilate every 3 minutes lord have mercy MONKAS

grim jay
#

Sometimes it feels like most people wouldnt complain as much if it really was just a mut every 3 min

#

Because it isnt exsang

jade abyss
#

There is no mercy

light pumice
#

yo

#

whats the fastest way of farming primal chaos

balmy condor
#

Spam m+

#

Each level gives 1 primal

#

You do a +15, that’s 15 primal

light pumice
#

hmm

#

what ilvl do i need for m+

#

i only pvp so i have no IO to get invites

marble hemlock
#

@balmy condor Why can't I hit 2CP anymore

#

Multiple full ER windows without ever hitting 2 CP sad

royal lantern
#

34% crit?

#

SbS is ALWAYS a crit for me lol

dire lodge
#

@balmy condor imagine Exsanguinate is removed on tuesday. Where are you putting your 1 talent point?

marble hemlock
#

On ST its fine cuz sbs

#

but in m+ it sucks

royal lantern
#

i somewhat use SbS to get charged cp

#

but litearlly always crit wiht it

misty holly
#

Did you macro cold blood to sbs?

royal lantern
#

cold blood assa OMEGAKEKW

grim jay
#

Even with 37% crit

#

It just hates me

#

Or loves, depending on interpretation

jade abyss
#

Whats your ilvl?

grim jay
#

409 is the guess

royal lantern
#

i embraced the 34%

#

(translates into "i always end up with 34% for some reason")

marble hemlock
grim jay
#

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

jade abyss
#

Okay that explains a lot ^^

steel ridge
#

always seem to forget, but kingsbane damage itself is affected by zoldyck right?

royal lantern
#

yes

steel ridge
#

does that viscous venom bug still exist, that applied more poisons?

balmy condor
#

No

rancid nimbus
#

Anybody got a wa for the shiv duration? I tryed to find/creat. nothing works for me. would like a progress bar kinda thing šŸ™‚

dire lodge
balmy condor
#

Coming from you I think it might be even more horrifying

#

Let’s hear it

I’m on the edge of my seat

He was probably just going to tell whispyr how data works

balmy condor
#

50/50 chance

sterile jackal
#

I got a question, is it better to run this weeks m+ with ic build or to take dtb and use deadly + wound poison?

balmy condor
#

Sneaky sneakyt

#

Trying to pull a fast one on me

sterile jackal
#

^^

balmy condor
#

Good troll though

sterile jackal
#

I was dared to write this on sin channel

balmy condor
#

A little unoriginal

#

But ya know

#

Still a good 7/10

#

It’s a good meme

sterile jackal
#

Thank you sir

#

But apparently ppl are asking if its worth taking wound poison on sanguine week...

balmy condor
grim jay
#

Just tell everyone to do their job

balmy condor
#

Like sand in the desert

#

Problem is idiots also are the prime demographic for not knowing things

#

So they’re also the prime demographic for asking stupid questions

#

It’s like a snake eating its own tail

royal lantern
grim jay
#

I like your new year style of answering questions Whispyr. Its good fun

balmy condor
#

I haven’t changed a thing

dire lodge
grim jay
#

I felt like you were more passive beforestarege

balmy condor
grim jay
royal lantern
dire lodge
#

yes, was recovering from my hand injury from the increased apm i suffered while attacking the animated duelist :/

balmy condor
#

I could’ve told you that any day in the last 3 months while in a full coma

grim jay
#

Brother flipped the switch further to A

#

I like it

balmy condor
#

In fact there’s probably like a pin and 3 faq paragraphs and 2 guide pages that say it too

dire lodge
#

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

balmy condor
#

I think you got bigger humiliations to worry about right now

grim jay
dire lodge
#

put me on the sin rogue design team

#

tiny toxic blade damage increased to sim higher then exsangg. spec saved.

grim jay
#

I knew smth like that was coming and you didnt disappoint

dire lodge
#

np

balmy condor
#

Brother with how long it took you to design well known info

#

I have my doubts how you’ll perform in that position

nova kelp
#

next patch the devs might know that some players don't like exsang

grim jay
#

Its literally whatever

#

3 min cd

balmy condor
#

The gameplay is shit tho

dire lodge
#

" 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

balmy condor
#

Sure it’s 3 min

#

But like

#

If I told you that you have to puke every 3 minutes instead of every 45 seconds

#

It’s an upgrade for sure

#

But you should still see a doctor

grim jay
#

We should probably all see one anyways

#

So its whatever

balmy condor
#

I think the community is pretty 50/50 on exsang

#

They either like it or they don’t

grim jay
#

I dont like it but its not THAT bad

dire lodge
#

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...

grim jay
#

I mean still not outlaw

balmy condor
#

I use the fact that there’s like 60 builds right now to my advantage

#

To avoid exsang whenever possible

dire lodge
balmy condor
#

Amen god bless

dire lodge
balmy condor
dire lodge
#

heres another take

#

who else wishes sepsis was better then bone spike

#

ā˜¹ļø

storm onyx
#

It’s quite hard without making it op if you take in to account of sbs cp economy

nocturne current
#

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.

grim jay
#

I like the spike

nocturne current
#

Vampire abilities in a thief for whatever lord's reason.

grim jay
#

Tho I like Kingsbane the most of all

nocturne current
#

Yeah Kingsbane's nice

dire lodge
#

yeah i agree. the necromancer spike, exsanguinate, and the pixie disease should all go. they bring nothing to sin rogue

grim jay
#

It fits the build, fits the spec and isnt awkward

torn atlas
#

A serrated bone with disease and rot? Sounds like a pretty gnarly rogue weapon honestly.

nocturne current
#

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..

midnight atlas
#

sbs best spell in game, i really miss the leggo, shooting 3 spikes and having 5 charges

dire lodge
#

serrated bone spike renamed to throw poisoned knife, exsanguinate removed, mutilate dagger restriction removed

#

i fixed the spec or what

midnight atlas
#

also its a bleed, no disease or anything

grim jay
#

What mutilate dagger restriction removed

#

Its an assassin

#

A rogue spec

#

Not outlul

royal lantern
nocturne current
#

I grew up with classic RPG's, I have a hard time seeing a thief as a spellcaster

royal lantern
grim jay
#

Sub basically uses magic aswell

#

In some sense

dire lodge
#

ya sub literally has veiltouched

#

good flavor ability

royal lantern
midnight atlas
#

yeah, if you dont want to use magic just unbind cloak of shadows and shadowstep

dire lodge
#

5% magic dmg increase from all sources including trinkets ez

drifting cosmos
#

hmm

solid mica
dire lodge
#

this is haram

#

noooo danse macabre is so bad rogue is copying ww monk for 6 seconds

nocturne current
#

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

dire lodge
#

vs

#

šŸ¤“ šŸ¤“ my bleeds are ticking twice as fast on this target! this is so epic!

torn atlas
#

Pirate does sorta have the overloaded SnD thing right?

solid mica
dire lodge
#

they couldnt even develop a cool icon for exsang shit is from like wow classic alpha

trail tree
#

pirate big gun pew pew :D

dire lodge
#

lets not bring outlaw players into this they are toon busy trying to fit the square in the circle hole

solid mica
#

You just played outlaw in a 15 sir happy_holiday_pepe

nocturne current
#

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)

solid mica
#

Yea its nice, playing all specs is bis

nocturne current
#

Honor Among Thieves, that was an ability I really, really liked.

solid mica
#

If youre not living the double/triple life what are you even doing

dire lodge
#

does feral druid copy exsanguinate?

royal lantern
solid mica
dire lodge
#

survival hunter should be a rogue spec

if u know what i mean u get it

Fuck Honor among thief's, imagine we had even more group only buffs

sour grail
#

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?

vapid stone
#

what would u say is best dtb or kingsbane carnage for m+?

sour grail
#

@vapid stone in my experience, its been kb+ic so far

vapid stone
#

okay

sour grail
#

not tried dtb since Ive got 4 sets in m+

#

so not sure if tiers change it

vapid stone
#

i feel like kb is a bit stronger i do have a 2 set

sour grail
#

bleeds definitely kicks in harder after 4set so spreading bleeds and ct ticks harder

grim jay
sour grail
#

so kb + ic is still strong

vapid stone
#

ive been spamming academy for trinket so on academy it feels good with kb

royal lantern
vapid stone
#

im still new to assasination rogue and feel like i need a mentor

#

but this discord is good tough

royal lantern
#

cus that dungeon has 0big ic pulls after the First boss

grim jay
#

@balmy condor is THE mentor

royal lantern
#

i thought he is THE catmaid?

grim jay
#

Dunno why he wouldnt be both

sour grail
sour grail
#

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

shut imp
#

is there a way to proc poison bomb more often?

limber lion
#

Just a passive effect, it's not meant to be super interesting or good

shut imp
#

@limber lion oh i see, im just struggling with AoE

normal mist
#

It does feel good to proc PB in huge packs in m+ (I've been trying out Dtb)

shut imp
#

sub is boring and outlaw is weird to me

grim jay
#

Not only to you

#

Outlaws are weird in general

shut imp
#

lol

limber lion
shut imp
#

@limber lion i know its just so nice when it does

polar matrix
#

are the sims on flaring cowl right?

#

dont have the ring but flaring cowl huge gain for me over bronze grip

grim jay
#

Yes

maiden hollow
grim jay
#

Except if you added something wrong to the sim

grim jay
#

Seems about right

polar matrix
#

yeah pre sure is cos 418 head > 372 head

grim jay
#

Yeah thats a factor and did you sim a dagger without embellishment with the cowl?

#

Phone is poopoo

rigid comet
#

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

polar matrix
#

i simmed that same dagger but removed the embelishment

grim jay
polar matrix
#

yeah

#

time to recraft the dagger

grim jay
#

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

thorny pond
#

Ideally you won’t run helm when you have option for other 4 slots

grim jay
thorny pond
#

Re read what I posted

polar matrix
#

i have kinda commited myself to the chest t piece this way

#

thats if i get the ring

#

6% is kinda fat

grim jay
# thorny pond Re read what I posted

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

thorny pond
#

Yea the combo so pretty nuts

thorny pond
grim jay
thorny pond
#

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 don’t make the leap

polar matrix
#

yeah its still 3% for me w/o ring

#

but it locks me into needing the chest t piece

thorny pond
#

I’m 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

gusty mirage
#

Just get a tier chest from your first vault dunno

#

Just loot the item

grim jay
#

Ye

#

Its so easy

thorny pond
#

I have been passed over thrice for warrior tier so far

grim jay
#

Just do it

gusty mirage
thorny pond
gusty mirage
#

Your 2pc is worth the entire tier set for fury

thorny pond
#

But doesn’t matter

gusty mirage
#

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

vestal wren
thorn fjord
royal lantern
#

didnt they somewhat fix fury set by buffing it+warriors understanding that they are shit at TC and heavy undervalued it?

gusty mirage
thorny pond
#

They are fine

gusty mirage
thorny pond
#

Don’t let them guilt you

vestal wren
#

do they use it

#

even

gusty mirage
#

They equip higher ilvl over tier

vestal wren
#

that is what i assumed

thorny pond
#

Listen, they get two 2H weapons
They can F off

vestal wren
#

bis for them might not even play tier

#

XD

thorny pond
#

Execute crit is pogger bro

royal lantern
thorny pond
#

Crit chance*

royal lantern
gusty mirage
#

Another special from our fav item designer

thorny pond
royal lantern
#

because 2h weapons need double the resources of 1h stuff, cus normaly you only need 1 of them

gusty mirage
royal lantern
#

meanwhile fury would need 4 sparks for 2 weapons

#

and 4x the valor then everyone else to upgrade trought m+

thorny pond
lament warren
#

that’s the tax for playing fury

#

luckily offhand wdps for them still doesn’t matter

thorny pond
#

Single minded fury exists

#

Play that

lament warren
#

weird

thorny pond
#

If outlaw can do big damage with two 1H swords, why can’t they? Seems like a warrior skill issue

royal lantern
#

outlaw can do dmg cus its the rogue version of fire mage at this point

#

if its bad for once, buffs come

subtle tundra
#

outlaw can do big damage to their own brains

gusty mirage
royal lantern
#

How do you damage something that is entirely missing?

thorn fjord
#

😬

grim jay
#

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 starege

thorny pond
#

Didn’t know they had those

#

Every arms warrior went prot

#

Every fury warrior is still talking over everyone about how great fury is

royal lantern
#

OMG I SPAM 2 BUTTONS 2000x A MIN

grim jay

Fury warriors are the vegans of wow

thorny pond

Fury warriors are the boot wives of WoW. One guy played fury well so they all claim his rank and skill

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)

royal lantern
#

no

shut surge
#

Ok I am noob so pls explain

royal lantern
#

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

shut surge
#

What dot ??

garrote...?

Ok cool , yeah like I said I’m a noob to rogue

use static and pay priests and evokers to move you

Cheaper, more consistent, vers is good for prog

Gotcha

Just learned glacial... Gonna try making some gold

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

tawdry dust

#

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

tawdry dust

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

quasi ledge
#

With a non-improved Garrote, yes

stable vector
#

ye for example when you do your opener and vanish garrote...so you just let that one run out then you reapply

quasi ledge
#

Yeah always let improved DoT's fall off and reapply instantly after

Nah, you can pandemic with an improved one

Is there any situation where Vicious Venoms is better than Systemic Failure?

subtle tundra
#

"also varas isnt outlaw much better for this?" about kurog

#

sure it is buddy

oak sky
#

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

subtle tundra
#

assa is bad at 2t

oak sky
#

That said, assassination is fine on grimtotem but outlaw is also better

subtle tundra
#

and yes its 2 target + adds

#

outlaw is much better on kurog

oak sky
#

Im gonna play outlaw on it

subtle tundra
#

i cant play outlaw

#

even if i wanted

oak sky
#

Still a few weeks off

subtle tundra
#

i have no weapons

#

on hc its st and occasional 2t

#

well

#

bladeflurry 60% is bs

#

bad design

oak sky
#

Our bleeds do piss damage

#

So we suck at 2t

#

Done

subtle tundra
#

anyways

#

dont have a weapon

#

not my problem

solid mica
#

Tbh its p much a st fight

subtle tundra
#

it literally is not

solid mica
#

Thats what matters

subtle tundra
#

and outlaw outdps's assa on prio in 2t tho

solid mica
#

Just out rupture and garrote on it and crank st

subtle tundra
#

ok buddy

#

but outlaw still outdps on it

solid mica
#

Sure

#

Veras' is OL gaming when

subtle tundra
#

never

solid mica
#

I thought you loved pirates of the carribean

subtle tundra
#

those are cool

#

bladeflurry is not even close to cool

solid mica
#

How come

subtle tundra
#

seems pretty obvious

solid mica
#

Whats to hate

subtle tundra
#

whats to like

solid mica
#

Doing aoe dmg

subtle tundra
#

in the most boring way imaginable

solid mica
#

And your ST is mkre interesting than most specs

royal lantern
subtle tundra
#

outlaw has only the st rotation

solid mica
#

Aoe without IC is masochistic

subtle tundra
#

seems like you havent play assa before df

oak sky
#

Bleed flurry 😓

solid mica
#

I have, playing sin in keys prior to DF was for ppl that hate themselves pretty sure

#

šŸ‘€

oak sky
#

If the damage was high you would be raving about it

chrome holly
#

just pick up APB, with the cast time i assume you use it pre pull?

solid mica
#

I would never rave about skillshotting mouseover bleeds as my nameplates drift everywhere with 15 mobs

gusty mirage
solid mica
#

Plater is fine

gusty mirage
#

apparently not if you need to "skillshot mouseover bleeds"

#

also what kind of masochist uses mouseover bleeds?

solid mica
#

Are you tab targeting?

gusty mirage
#

are you not?

oak sky
#

You gotta click each target

#

Thats the move

gusty mirage
#

but I mean if your entire aoe rotation includes pressing one button to do damage to other targets

solid mica
#

Not if i need to garrote 3 casters from stealth

gusty mirage
#

it would make sense that you feel the need to mouseover

oak sky
solid mica
#

Trying to put up bleeds while those mobs leap around in theater of pain actually is the worst

#

How is that agreon

oak sky
#

Ic iron wires all the mobs man

#

Or are you back to old sin

solid mica
#

Im talking pre IC

#

I love ic

oak sky
#

Even back then man

#

Its a pretty low bar to click caster garrote click caster garrote click caster garrote

subtle tundra
#

i like dotting

#

the problem was

#

you dotted and dotted

#

and did no dmg

gusty mirage
#

but the "prio damage"

oak sky
#

I miss dotting a little

gusty mirage
#

what key levels are you doing where you don't have to reapply dots???

neon oxide
#

still no 2 set but got 408 technique + boon in 1 run

subtle tundra
#

12

neon oxide
#

kinda gaming

oak sky
#

I mean dotting frequently oxi

gusty mirage
#

you still can

#

just don't take IC

oak sky
#

šŸ’€

#

Not in the habit of doing less damage for no reason

#

Oh wait

#

Im already playing sin

gusty mirage
#

sin's damage is fine in keys

#

idk why people shit on it like it does zdps

indigo epoch
#

I just like the spec

#

Outlaw sucks. Miss me with that pirate shit

velvet ridge
#

You ever watch seli play keys, mans beating dhs and monks

oak sky
#

Its all about pull size

#

We give up a lot of low target damage to get big aoe

gusty mirage
#

people making it out to be like we're doing tank damage

#

sure we're not sub rogue

#

but uh

#

neither is outlaw

gentle roost
#

How do we get the kings and icon

oak sky
#

We do more than outlaw at high target counts

oak sky
gusty mirage
#

and doesn't have to sacrifice survivability for damage

#

but I still get declined from 16s for not being outlaw

#

weird eh

oak sky
#

With pull sizes outlaw might be stronger overall

#

But sin is easily the best rogue spec for pugs because of iron wire

brazen zodiac
gusty mirage
#

absolutely not

#

I did 3 of them last night for my 20

brazen zodiac
#

outlaws allowed

#

hehe

Yeah

IMAGINE

oak sky
#

I did

gusty mirage
#

cheating on assassination

#

for the lesser rogue m+ spec

oak sky
#

I need to work on it

gusty mirage
#

not even sub

oak sky
#

I want outlaw for grimtotem

#

A few people in my guild were bitching about me playing sin

solid mica
#

Sound like bottom fraggers to me

oak sky
#

Like

gusty mirage
#

didn't realize your guild was pushing for RWF

oak sky
#

Not for raid

subtle tundra
#

call them losers

gusty mirage
#

where what spec your rogue plays matters

oak sky
#

They dont care in raid

gusty mirage
#

????????

oak sky
#

They care about

subtle tundra
#

call them losers

gusty mirage
#

well I hope they all rerolled WW & DH

oak sky
#

What spec i play in our +18-+20 keys

gusty mirage
#

for the ultimate meta M+ comp

oak sky
gusty mirage
#

lmfao

#

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

oak sky
#

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

gusty mirage
#

tell him he plays priest

#

and should have 0 opinion on what other spec people play

oak sky
#

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

gusty mirage
#

learn sub

#

its better

oak sky
#

Ill try it

#

I dont think ill like it as much though

vestal wren
#

how come majority plays outlaw?

gusty mirage
#

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

oak sky
#

Isnt sub pretty easy rn

#

Like judt do your sequence snd send everything on cd

vestal wren
#

depends

oak sky
#

Or are you supposed to sync to dance in aoe

gusty mirage
#

I never said it was hard

#

I said it was punishing

vestal wren
#

subtlety might be more complex than assassination šŸ˜‰

gusty mirage
#

they're too busy worrying about the 0.1% crafted gear & SUPER DUPER global optimizations

vestal wren
#

to be fair, i think thats to a degree annoying

vestal wren
#

needing to actually care about your position to spread rupture efficiently sucks

oak sky
#

Hopefully it becomes smart rupture soon

oak sky
#

Im gonna be honest though i did really bad damage on terros

gusty mirage
#

do gymnastics to try to get CT on everything

oak sky
#

(My gear is bricked)

vestal wren
#

how did CT behave ?

oak sky
#

When it was 8 capped

gusty mirage
#

it would pick 8 random targets

#

so you'd try to game it by running around lmao

vestal wren
#

oh ye the target caps

#

nice memes

gusty mirage
#

its 2023 and outlaw is still capped

vestal wren
#

on a target count you rarely exceed, with extended BF range

earnest imp
#

so everyone in my grp nowadays has this Whispering Incarnate Icon, is it good for assa with full stack?

vestal wren
#

unplayable

#

it is good

gusty mirage
#

it's a high ilvl stat stick

earnest imp
#

Im referring kinda if its better then controlled destruction at same ilvl

vestal wren
#

just sim it

#

easiest way to find out

earnest imp
#

true, figured its hard to take into account the other ppl with trinkets

vestal wren
#

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)

gloomy knoll
gusty mirage

I will be too

Sin fun for raid for me I prefer sub or yarr in keys tho

Brain off fingers brrrr

subtle tundra

uncool opinion

#

but its ok

#

Just annoying to switch talents mid raid tho.

#

Shadowstep keeps bugging.

grim tangle
#

shadowstep is a crutch anyways

oak sky
#

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

Anyone know, are we going to be able to convert non tier pieces to tier eventually?

indigo epoch

Dope. I like m+ but dont raid much

Thanks

oak sky

Your vault can contain tier pieces as well

what are some good WA packages for rogue?

#

or let me ask differently

#

what are the cleanest UI / WA packages for mythic raids

limber lion
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
limber lion
#

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

grizzled moon
#

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

trim zinc
#

i use this, its jpc plater and a wa that i made based on endwyr's one

What is the best opener

:o

plain onyx

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

bleak eagle
#

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?

outer cairn
#

Should I upgrade Lariat to 418 or Shortblade first?

bleak eagle
#

Also will this lead to more boss dmg?

sharp zodiac
#

And probably help your raid as a whole

bleak eagle
#

ok thx

slim hamlet
#

at least for me

#

Pretty sure that doesnt change much

sick monolith
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
outer cairn
#

so it would get replaced

slim hamlet
#

At that point I sure hope you have enough infusion to make more

oak sky
#

You would keep the weapon until you have flaring cowl/diurna ring

slim hamlet
#

Still gonna keep the weapon after that

#

Just no embellish

oak sky
#

I mean

#

It would get replaced by diurna dagger

#

Pretty sure

slim hamlet
#

Yea

#

But how fast are you gonna get that

#

2nd last mythic boss

oak sky
#

Depends how fast you get the ring

slim hamlet
#

huh

#

how

#

what

#

Dagger rng relies on ring rng?

oak sky
#

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

slim hamlet
#

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

outer cairn
#

yeah I mean I was leaning towards dagger then getting lariat up to 418 after reset. need to hit 4 more 16s tonight

slim hamlet
#

That's the good thing about not having a life

#

Already have all 3 418

slim drift
#

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

dreamy elk
#

When do you guys puzzle box in the opener, and post-opener?

trim zinc
#

Before dm

strange python
#

exg is used on cd or sync with deathmark?

marble hemlock
#

depends on the fight duration

#

you use on cd unless you can sync them without losing a use

sonic spire
#

is it better to sync puzzle box with exsang or hold it for deathmark? (ps theres no shot we hold exsang for deathmark right?

weak horizon
#

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

fading rover
#

what is our best Phial?

weak horizon
#

It's on the wowhead consumables page

#

Or if you prefer better numbers I think whispyrs sim sheet gets into it too

#

weak horizon
#

Basically glacial fury for AOE and tepid vers for ST

And dont use the toxic ones unless you're insane

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

full coral
#

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

balmy condor
#

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

full coral
#

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

balmy condor
#

no

#

box before DM

#

not pull

full coral

wth

#

god my poor outlaw brain

bleak eagle
#

when we have two target cleave should i run SS for the double buffed garrote?

balmy condor
#

should be running it in single target

#

if you have 4 piece

bleak eagle
#

3pc

#

rn running ur posion dtb

balmy condor
#

then just play that

bleak eagle
#

Ok thx i wasnt sure if anything changed when we introduced a second target

jovial adder
#

whats embellishment do we put on our daggers?

oak sky
#

Fang adornments or bronzed grip wrappings

ebon notch
#

i mean if you're crafting lariat + helm then nothing

#

go put the food buff one on or smth

oak sky
#

Why assume people have the ring+helm?

ebon notch
#

i said

#

"if you're crafting"

#

as in planning to

oak sky
ebon notch
#

because otherwise they would have to recraft

#

and remove their embellishment off their weapon

#

and then craft the other items

oak sky
#

I'm gonna wait until later probably theres so many loot whores in my guild

#

Theyll all complain

ebon notch
#

what

oak sky
#

Ill just get it in farm idc

ebon notch
#

get what in farm

oak sky
#

The ring

ebon notch
#

whats that got to do with the helm and neck

#

helm is an upgrade over 421 tier head

oak sky
#

But a dagger embellish

#

Is an upgrade over a random offhand

#

Or a lower ilvl mainhand

ebon notch
#

wdym

oak sky
#

Like sure i can craft a no embellish helm

ebon notch
oak sky
#

Thats it

ebon notch
#

i dont understand

#

Wait

#

Isnt flaring cowl like

#

Weird in some way

in what way

#

agreon are you high today or smth

Like crafting

#

Isnt it locked stats

do any of our abilities have different rate of procing poisons beside Shiv?

balmy condor

no

#

yeh true

chilly viper
#

Can saving energy at max cp make a dps increase?

#

For elaborate planning windows ?

oak sky
#

pooling a little bit can be a small gain but elaborate planning is pretty much a pure passive damage increase

balmy condor
#

might take you from like 90% uptime to 90.5% uptime

#

so

#

yeah, huge gains

chilly viper
#

I need every gains I can have lmfao

strange trail
#

we use bronzed grip on weapon ?

balmy condor
#

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
