Holy shit man

👏

balmy condor
#

Better yet just add it to the pile on the dresser

#

that's cab fare sir

wheres the vault skip?

Uber black I hope

Or something

#

Idk

#

Why do we use Exsang over MA in the KB+ IC build now?

balmy condor
#

I’ve never popped it

#

Because we always have for prio damage

thorny pond
#

wtf is prio damage

#

we don't do aoe

#

it's just called "single target"

what gems are best for us on the lariat

thorny pond

past kettle
#

thanks

balmy condor
#

FaQ also has a gem section

thorny pond
#

How can I scuff the sims so that our UH DK does less ST dps

keen plaza
#

buzzing rune or Attack power?

strange python
thorny pond
#

Because nobody should burst that much

#

and zero is the player, it's all pet

strange python
#

I mean the player is making the pets go crazy

#

UH DK decently complicated atm

thorny pond
#

This spec channel is the pre-k of spec complexity

#

so I understand

strange python
#

If you want to beat a DK right now, play an arcane mage. UH DK is some of the highest ST there is, and is also the highest burst in the game

#

Uwot

#

Sin is the most complicated of the rogue specs right now by a country mile

thorny pond
#

"aSsAsSiNaTiOn Is HaRd"

tacit pebble
#

uh dk being best burst is like when fire mage was, shouldn't be top dmg just from pressing the ignite button or from just having pets out doing your work

strange python
#

Is this another lost outlaw player in the wrong channel thinking fast apm is hard?

thorny pond
#

hardest part of sin is making sure you have two offensive poisons on your weapons

strange python
#

Sure man

#

Good luck in your heroic kills I'm sure you'll do great

thorny pond
#

thanks bud! Need all the support we can get

next edge
#

I mean

#

DTB no exsang sin

#

is fairly easy

strange python
#

Even Dtb no exsang sin is more complex than sub or outlaw ATM.

thorny pond
#

Objective take, that's based

strange python
#

Only thing you have to do on sub is not waste a CD and not refresh finality rupture. Outlaw is just knowing when to reroll

#

I mean I've played all three specs over the last four years, play all three specs in raid right now.

thorny pond
#

🏅

strange python
#

If we public logged I'd be pretty high on all star for all three

dire flame
#

Yea me2

#

Logs are private because i cant let out my secret...

strange python
#

Dtb no exsang sin isn't "hard" but at least managing energy and envenom uptime and mismatched CDs is harder than "roll for SnC and don't sit on symbols"

#

And that's playing the suboptimal build

#

But one tricking and trying to cause drama in other channels seems...like a fun way to spend your time?

thorny pond
#

You are literally getting butt hurt over a meme

#

And yellow brings out my eyes

strange python
#

If I seem butthurt to you then okay I guess. Gl with the trolling. Sounds productive

You got turned around because I insinuated sin was free and you assumed I Otp outlul because of my name. G’day sir

Lol I said g’day. But thanks

rapid forum

when do we use puzzle box?

strange python
#

Before exsang or DM

rapid forum
#

ty

strange python
#

Np!

rapid forum
#

so in the opener, put up rupture channel trinket and go

strange python
#

You want it to be right before exsang/DM

So it lasts the duration

It is

dire flame
#

I googled the question in discord and it was said to be before Dm

slim hamlet
#

If it's the other build I think we ended up saying just before dm right?

ionic fox

It showing but not for DTB opener

Then after rupture before DM

it lasts less time

And is it ok to sit few seconds on exsanguinate or ER to combine them

man, just drop items, its so easy

afterall, thats what i did with CoS ring

you wanna er->rupture->exsang

Can someone summarize the difference in playstyle between DTB and KB? I'm a pvp sinner but I want to give pve a go.

balmy condor
#

kb presses kb and holds shiv

#

the other doesn't

Thank you! So slightly less things to do with DTB.

do and remember, that is.

is a bit shit that you lose a full DM for the interphase right?

for solo raid build is Echoing really mandatory?

yes

Thank you! Ill give that a go

Well first raid as kingsbane build after getting 4set. actually not the worst. defo not as simple but pretty simple with the syncing from kingsbane

slate knot
#

it is worth to craft these boots?

balmy condor
#

probably not

#

they would be temporary at best

slate knot
#

i must craft something

#

i have neck,dagger

#

need something else

balmy condor

?

#

why

#

you craft something else and then replace the dagger?

#

I mean you can do that I guess

delicate smelt

dagger is fine

balmy condor

okay well neck is bis

#

so what are you doing

slate knot
#

i have neck

#

#

XD

balmy condor
#

you can only wear two

slate knot
#

two crafts?

balmy condor

you want a helm eventually to replace your dagger

#

two embellishments

#

you see how that says 2?

#

that means 2

421 diurna ring or 411 grieftorch? Can’t use fire head yet without losing 4-set and trinket sims a lot higher ofc. The ring isn’t really that rare is it?

The one thing I hate about being a rogue is I just don't have the comfortable keybind space for tricks. Do you use a macro or addon for that?

Interesting ty. @balmy condor while I usually take your teachings to heart, I'm a southpaw so I can't replicate that.

But anyway I should probably just have some kind of keybind I can reach damn it.

Hey everyone, I am a completely new to rogue. Literally just boosted one 5 minutes ago, can someone please tell me what spec can i level to 70 with ?

@balmy condor Is there one easier than the others?

balmy condor

usually people prefer outlaw

is kingsbane not consuming CB intentional?

balmy condor
#

yeh

it's a lot of aoe

I play dtb pretty much everywhere else this week

So you're saying I have to learn both. Woiw.

thorny pond
#

Do you like Talon Toss, Whispyr, you soft skin?

silver quiver
#

Better go back to fury.

balmy condor
#

I mean if you wanna be optimal sure you learn both

#

but you could also just play dtb the whole way

#

and just chill

I kid. I'm actually one of the 7 destro mains.

Hello guyz, is ilvl parse important or just we don't care about it :o?

ionic matrix
#

Tell me if I am reading into this wrong, but if Garrote gets an extra 50% damage from being applied from stealth, and deathmark doubles the damage from bleeds while its up, then that means that not lining them up, and instead extending the duration of stealth garrote by delaying and offsyncing would only work if delaying it also meant you kept up at least 50% uptime of the stealthed garrote in deathmark.

Which means that if Deathmark lasts 16 seconds, that a vanished garrote must be applied with 8 seconds of casting Deathmark for any delay to have been worth the extension, and since you at best are extending from 16 seconds to 23.3, you just gained 7.3 seconds at max of a buffed garrote, that yields the exact same damage as just lining up garrote with Deathmark in the first place.

Basically, I see zero value in offsyncing vanish and deathmark (plus it's slightly harder to manage).

I guess the idea is that since your first garrote is already buffed, you gain the extension on the first garrote and get 100% uptime of buffed Garrote during the first Deathmark, which naturally offsets your vanish with it, but unless you lose a deathmark at the end of the fight, I would think that delaying your second deathmark with vanish would be the best way to handle the rest of them.

for most people realistically, yeah sync them

#

but if you don't know the kill time, it's better to just send it and not risk shit

thorn fjord
#

I’m having a hard time with the rotation during the second DM cast… should I just er to rupture then vanish garrote puzzlebox DM?

shut owl
#

new DM's always make me panic lol

ionic matrix
#

@balmy condor appreciate the feedback. I can normally logic my way into the right method, but still need confirmation once I get there.

thorn fjord
#

Or do I vanish garrote rupture er rupture then box then dm

balmy condor
#

and it just ended up not panning out ever

#

sims are hell bent on just firing it off on cooldown

#

would probably need some logic to hold if it's the last cast and then sync up or look at the time at the start of the pull and then sync depending on how the kill time matches up with the uptimes

#

but like

#

I hate that

frigid pilot
#

worth to upgrade these with valor or wait for raid ones/fish for higher base ilvl

#

same question

balmy condor
#

box is bis

#

upgrade it

echo geyser
#

if u think ur able to do higher level keys is rly good to get higher base ilvl early on when valor is still capped

#

if u want to upgrade multiple items at least

frigid pilot
#

hm

echo geyser
#

if u just have 1 trinket it prob dont matter

#

highest base is 405

So happy for the tree-boss nerfs so i can keep farming for that stupid trinket

will check it now thanks

balmy condor

so bleed builds won't be good

that makes sense

you're just straight up missing 20% bleed damage

just curious cause i feel starved quite a few times in a key

balmy condor

then cast more ruptures

assassination will starve

that's how the spec works

if you need more energy in aoe

if you need more energy in single target

can ambush and mutilate be bound together or I'll need to kms?

balmy condor
#

!bs

prisma monolithBOT
#

Ambush/Mutilate Macro:
This should be seen as a "lazy" option, and is not recommended. It can be hard to control and requires a third-party macro addon to expand the games base functionality. We recommend ALWAYS keybinding ambush (either with a modifier, or an entirely different key)
You can macro Ambush to Mutilate using a advanced macro addon.

Question: Shiv after for before kingsbane? FAQ picture shows after, but in opener section explain before.

dim yacht
#

id much rather have the last boss of court die faster and go through less maelstorms, or skip a phase on sha in temple

frigid python
#

Oh okay! Makes sense! Thank you

cunning surge
#

That's how I do mine, Shivving before let's me get the full duration in Kingsbane with the 2nd charge

Couple of sin playstyle questions:

  1. With rupture/garrote/sbs, is there a priority for bleeds you want to place first on target when multidotting?
  2. Is bleed logic similar to sub, where you want to basically apply your bleeds on anything that lasts 12+s regardless of most (reasonable) target count? Or is there a "cap" on the number of targets you dot up before you start dumping CP on envenom?
azure cloak
#

is there a "cap" on how much crit you want? currently got a 35% crit / 33% mastery split

cunning surge
#

Unsure on first, but on second I think the general consensus is just dot up 3 targets with Gar/Rup/CT and then go off with Envenom
Unless it's 6+ Targets in a pack in which case spamming FoK into CT is the general play

dim yacht
#

but otherwise pretty spot on

cunning surge
#

That's something I always forget dead

dreamy elk
#

Poison bomb makes all the difference I guess. Thanks for that.

dim yacht
#

a lot of people dont realise that envenom is a buff on you not a debuff on your target

cunning surge
#

Poison Bomb is still really good in big packs if it procs for sure

dim yacht
#

so when you envenom, youre improving your chance of applying poisons in aoe, even though envenom only hits a single target

cunning surge
#

Oh I know it's a buff, I just probably need a better timer to see to maintain the buff better

#

It is funny how it's like the only real buff in a sea of a ST debuffs lmao

strange python
#

what buildu ogoin this week?

balmy condor
cunning surge
balmy condor
#

There is no world where you would drop CT for like 1.5% dps in single target

#

Any gain you’re getting on bosses is just going to slow you down on aoe

shut owl
#

wouldn't you regain most of that loss from LD if you're ct'ing for adds anyways?

cunning surge
#

If add packs are surviving long enough yeah

balmy condor
#

They should be

cunning surge
#

Crimson Tempest overall is like 20%~ of my overall at LEAST

balmy condor
#

His argument was about optimizing for high keys

#

Where bosses are scary unhealable nightmares

#

So

#

Yeah

#

Don’t drop CT

#

That’s an awful idea

cunning surge
#

Honestly I just see them as asshole damage sponges

balmy condor
#

!neck

strange python

Third and fourth bosses nightmares

balmy condor

Can find a bunch here

night surge
#

Thoughts on M+ builds for the week? Would a more Single target build be better for Tryannical or just go IC+Kings?

balmy condor
#

People been playing both

#

Dtb is better single target

#

Would suggest the builds in the faq

sonic fossil
night surge
#

Was thinking the DTB build since bosses are more important and will be a pain

balmy condor
#

You can do that yeah

#

I personally run dtb In Most keys during tyrannical

#

Seli’s like 2750io or something obscene and he runs ickb

#

So they’re both definitely good

outer cairn
#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
night surge
#

Sounds good, not running super high keys so I feel like I might not get full value out of the IC spread of bleeds. Maybe I'm just stupid tho lol

balmy condor
#

Dtb is the easier build but you lose out on overall damage and especially aoe

shut owl
#

kb/ic very fun

balmy condor
#

If your group doesn’t pull big, it’s more than fine

cunning surge
#

I guess that is the determining factor, hm
Cause I haven't had as much luck with DTB over KB+IC, but everyone I group with does like 8+ target pulls constantly, so that makes sense

balmy condor
#

Yeh I mean in general dtb is less damage

#

By a noticeable amount

#

Like I’m starting to semi-consistently do 100k in academy now

#

But with dtb? No shot

night surge
balmy condor
#

Im at like 80k in Academy

#

With dtb

#

The aoe loss

#

Is huge

cunning surge
#

I mean, KB+IC is just too good to pass up on the Tree

#

Ended up doing like 125K at the end of that fight

shut owl
#

hilarious funnel on tree lol

last cobalt
#

how can we sim for phials?

dark token
#

Sub is like 120k in academy Copium

#

Also just did academy 21 earlier, tree boss nerfed so hard he is free boss now

#

Now crawth is the problem

balmy condor
#

Yeh

#

Crawth slaps

balmy condor

Nah been in puzzle box hell

And spamming cos for a guildie’s whetstone

Tomorrow probably

Hit 2300 though so it’s FREEEEE

#

Got a 20 azure waiting for me

#

My io boutta skyrocket

nocturne current
#

Thinking I also have to go puzzle box hell eventually now saddens me

balmy condor
#

At least academy is a pumper key

#

And not a snooze fest

#

Imagine if we had to spam shadowmoon forever

nocturne current
#

Yeah, you should try IC tho in Academy rly fun

balmy condor

It’s the only thing I play in academy :P

Any youtube videos walking through Assassination Single Target rotation? I feel like I'm doing okay, but I'm parsing low

How do you guys deal with chain pulls in your group?
Im doing 18-20s with my group and my Beast Mastery Hunter Mate wants chain pulls while i obviously want to restealth after packs, Im tempted to switch to sub/outlaw cause its so frustrating

somber fractal
#

did they do something to poison dam? mine are hitting a lot weaker tonight in raid

rocky sluice

F3

shut owl
ebon notch
gusty mirage
#

if they're doing that they're actually stupid

#

that's not even chaining at that point

#

that's just dumb

shut owl
#

thats 90% of the tanks I play with lol

gusty mirage
#

ideally they pull the last mob or two at 30%

shut owl
#

but I have to pug t-t

gusty mirage
#

into the new pull

#

so you still have bleeds rolling

#

and don't sit there afk

chilly viper
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
subtle lava
#

I will pay attention to that , is Night elve a game changer or is it overrated?

gusty mirage
#

overrated

#

unless you're playing outlaw

#

meld works with count the odds for whatever fucking reason

shut owl
#

funky

subtle lava
#

I was thinking for restealthing as sin

gusty mirage
#

yeah I mean on trash it has value

subtle lava
#

Not sure how it works always been horde

gusty mirage
#

yeah so on trash

#

you can meld -> stealth

#

and re-up garrotes and stuff

subtle lava
#

That sounds very strong in comparison to other races

gusty mirage
#

useful on some bosses cause you can meld some boss mechanics

#

dwarf ends up being better pretty sure

#

damage wise

#

2% crit damage bonus

subtle lava
#

Im talking m+ only

gusty mirage
#

and stoneform is literally the most busted racial

subtle lava
#

I dont raid mythic

gusty mirage
#

removes all poisons, curses, diseases, magic, and bleeds

#

and reduced phys damage taken by 10%

#

on a 2 minute cd

shut owl
#

stoneform still handy for m+

#

not being dead tends to be a big boon

subtle lava
#

It just Sounds like meld is insane if u can reapply improved garrotes with it

worn panther
#

Dwarf is the most op shit

#

Esp for pugs

balmy condor
midnight trellis

I prefer DID (mostly for pvp if not nelf) but dwarf is probably better for m+*

That was 2 weeks ago

probably been asked, but has anyone figured out most optimal opener with DTB and puzzle box

balmy condor
#

Man

#

Maybe I gotta fucking change the opener images again

dark token
#

Garrote snd garrote, sbs, rupture, er, puzzle box, rupture, vanish garrote, exang, deathmark, shiv, tea + envenom

gusty mirage
#

seems pretty straightforward to me

balmy condor
#

Idk

#

Gotta spell it out

#

Very exactly

Dtb changes shiv/envenom ordering since no kingsbane

balmy condor

Cannot transfer knowledge from one situation to another

Impossible

Can’t be done

brazen zodiac
dark token
#

And you want to put sbs earlier so you don't lose 1s of puzzle box in ur burst

balmy condor

Okay

#

But it’s still get dots up -> trinket -> deathmark

#

In every situation

north surge
#

Is anyone willing to take a look at my logs and tell me what I'm doing wrong?

marble hemlock
#

But that micro optimization matters cause everybody raids in a top 5 rwf guild where you wipe at 0.01% HP during prog, multiple times

I felt decently good about my last pull on Broodkeeper, but still only hit 16.

silver forum
#

guys what is the main damage mechanism of sin nowadays?? is it still pumping as much nature damage into shiv now?

balmy condor
#

It’s never really been that

#

The main mechanism is just maintaining dots and then dumping into envenom

silver forum
#

like kingsbane has become optioinal, i dont know what replaced it

#

all those poison ticks and pooling energy for kingsbane

#

last i played this spec was legion

balmy condor
#

Yeah that’s what it sounds like

#

Pooling is pretty much dead

#

And shiv is just an uptime buff

#

You basically just slam it on cooldown when you’re not playing kingsbane

#

It’s just maintain and the generate->spend

silver forum
#

for mythic plus playing DTB, how many targets do you rupture and garrote before you try for poison bombs?

balmy condor
#

You should be spamming CT on 4/5+

#

Anything lower than that you’re casting envenom for pb while maintaining ct

#

But you don’t really get that many envenoms in

#

Generally got your hands full maintaining ruptures and ct’s

#

You need like 6 bleeds to maintain enough energy

#

Maybe 7

silver forum
#

damn

#

so 3 targets?

balmy condor
#

Doesn’t have to be exactly 3 targets

#

You just want enough to not starve in aoe

silver forum
#

oh okay

balmy condor
#

It you’re starving, cast another rupture

#

If you’re good, don’t

silver forum
#

i see

balmy condor
#

In dungeons generally you don’t play around PB

#

If you’re gonna spam something, it’s CT

#

In lower target counts poison bomb is a nice bonus when you’re casting your envenoms

#

But it’s never a priority

silver forum
#

i see. once again, poison bomb was a huge factor in legion.

#

i played this game for a while with a lot of mistakes. now i'm just starting to climb the dps meters

outer cairn
#

bro. spiteful storm trinket is trash. go to sap a dude and the trinket procs

balmy condor
#

This is actually the most poison bomb has done since then by a large amount

#

And it’s about 6% in single target right now

silver forum
#

oh wow i didn't know that lol

balmy condor
#

Yeh

#

Since you’ve last played, we’ve actually played crimson tempest in single target a couple times

#

Just because poison bomb was that weak

cloud moat
#

I think you end up wasting around 10-15 seconds or so sitting on two charges of shiv if you save them for DM

ruby lotus
balmy condor
ruby lotus
#

just got 15% dmg buff and fixed the annoying out of combat issues it caused

balmy condor
#

15% buff to spiteful might make it a top 10 trinket now

#

It might compete with the tank trinkets

ruby lotus
#

🤣

balmy condor
#

That would be pretty sick

#

I Love how the whole gimmick of it is “long fight = damage”

#

But it doesn’t even come into top 3 on a 15 minute sim

cloud moat
balmy condor
#

What a fucking pathetic trinket

ruby lotus
#

i mean everytime you proc it , it becomes 1 stack higher so the longer the fight the higher the stacks and its procing less often youd think

balmy condor
#

Yeh but its also doing more damage

#

Idk

ruby lotus
#

true

cloud moat
#

How much more

balmy condor
#

Idk the number

#

I try to avoid thinking about spiteful storm as much as possible

#

I would rather think about anything else

#

Like if bees drink, how do they pee? Is it just a part of the honey? Do they have bladders?

#

These questions are far more important than spiteful storm

dim yacht
balmy condor

Yeah

dim yacht

probably still pretty bad in m+ though right?

cloud moat

Spiteful gonna be top 2 trinket by the end of the season, mark my words 2ez

balmy condor

It was worse than tank trinkets

i jsut have shitty trinkets lol

#

im using heroic spiteful, and a 418 alchemist stone

cloud moat

No m+ drops?

dim yacht
#

yeah i just dont get anything trinket wise

#

before that, i was using 382 bottle, and 375 turtle blessing thing

queen crest
#

I'm on 42 runs of CoS with no Trinket lol

dim yacht
#

so i decided a 418 alchemist stone is better than that

#

and despite spiteful being shit, it sims higher for me than any other trinket aside from the stone on both single and aoe

cloud moat
dim yacht
#

according to sims, yes

pure tide

im convinced the biggest thing holding back my m+ dps is just my trinkets

I liked gating through 3 tornadoes and dying after I land

that was kinda neat

I think they should add more tornadoes

best part of the fight

and make the ice 50% slippier

if that's even a word

they should just make the entire raid have that ice
