Even with 394

#

Maybe I just lack mastery only 32%

autumn frost
#

What's your ilvl?

next herald
#

394

autumn frost
#

I"m 399 and pulling 50-60k in mythic/raid

next herald
#

Single target

#

I’ve got no op trinkets

autumn frost
#

What do your sims put you at?

shut owl
#

bear in mind if you are testing on dummy you should sim dummy as well

next herald
#

How do you sim that?

shut owl
#

choose target dummy instead of patchwerk on raidbots

#

if theres a huge disparity between that sim and your personal test its probably a user error

next herald
#

Okay nice so I should be able to match the bot or very close

autumn frost
#

Did they update the armor on the dummy?

balmy condor
#

unless you're hitting a dummy from like wrath

#

yes

broken ibex
#

shut owl
#

reset overall before starting and then look at overall

#

I dunno what would be huge disparity tbh lol

#

if you're simming 42k and landing 40k thats probably decent enough? how pefect do ya wanna play

#

I'm not an expert 😛

I'm of the general opinion that if you're hitting 90% of your sim on a dummy you probably need practice during mechanical nonsense and aiming for consistency more than aiming for that last 5% in a clean room environment

#

got to learn eggs on diurna today and that just threw my everything offkilter for a few pulls lol

#

especially trying to work storm boon in XD

gusty mirage
#

hey guys

#

I have an idea for raid

#

why don't we put ice everywhere

#

so it's slippery

#

they could call it Winter Wonderland instead of Fated this time around

hot chasm
#

Grappling hook spec

#

wouldn't it be FUN?

shut owl
#

just for you oxi, I'm gonna go message blizzard and ask that the second raid be an entire wing of ice, with each downed boss adding a stacking 50% of "grip reduction"

#

is it worth holding DM for the minute waiting for Music box?

#

or do you naked DM without it

drifting cloud
#

it is if you wont lose casts because of it

KB on Heroic Raz?

#

there's no shield, right?

#

It's there an optimal graphics setting to see storming in M+? I find that with character+mob clutter (vault puddles) combined with storming puddles I can't see crap half the time on default ultra. I've tried tinkering a bit, but I don't really know what to tinker...

ebon notch
#

@bleak sky DEAD ON SPIDER AS DH

vapid sierra
#

any talents swap to make when going into a aoe boss?

#

or do i just run a m+ biuild

#

like for eranog/kurog

gusty mirage
#

eranog is not an aoe boss

bleak sky
#

if eranog adds are living long enough for an assa rogue to touch it you have issues

oak sky
#

Free garrote on big add and toss a boner

#

Gg

vapid sierra
oak sky
vapid sierra
#

or like sennarth or raz

oak sky
#

Kurog isnt an aoe boss either its a 2 target boss

#

Sennarth is an st boss

gusty mirage
#

if you're playing assassination on raz or sennarth your job is boss damage

#

you help with adds in between cds

oak sky
#

Raz only st really matters

gusty mirage
#

as for kurog

#

same thing

#

if your group needs help with adds

#

then you'd be better off playing outlaw

oak sky
#

Dtb bleed prayge

gusty mirage
oak sky
#

No

#

Kurog

#

And sennarth

gusty mirage
#

wahoo

#

an extra 5% cleave damage

oak sky
#

Makes your garrotes BANG

gusty mirage
#

you're really making a difference

oak sky
#

30% buff to your entire 2t damage

#
  • shrouded suff
vapid sierra
#

so i just run the raid build and make sure i got all dots up on both targets for someone like kurog?

gusty mirage
#

yeppers

oak sky
#

Poison still sims higher for me in pure st but no shot i ever go poison on an add boss

gusty mirage
#

if there's constant 2+ target cleave

#

you could justify taking crimson tempest

oak sky
#

I think i was hearing ct might not be worth?

#

For kurog

#

Not positive though

gusty mirage
#

dunno

#

I don't look up fights

oak sky
#

I just sim the bosses usually

#

And use the build that has a good sim

gusty mirage
#

you sim the bosses?

oak sky
#

I mean

#

Council yes

gusty mirage
#

so you build a custom raid event

oak sky
#

4t patchwerk

gusty mirage
#

to mimic the bosses?

oak sky
#

Kurog

#

2t patchwerk

#

No i just have a shred of critical thinking

gusty mirage
#

so you don't sim the bosses

#

got it

#

you sim the targets you expect for that boss fight

oak sky
#

I mean sure

gusty mirage
#

I mean words matter

oak sky
#

Thats so different

gusty mirage
#

it's not a "sure" moment

#

"Simming the bosses" != "simming the number of targets"

oak sky
#

Not sure why youre on me but

#

Yeah

#

Youre right

#

As always

gusty mirage
#

I'm not trying to be on you

#

I want people to clear with their words because judging by the amount of questions we get

#

and people saying "I thought I read"

#

we need to be better about it

#

all of us do

#

not just you

oak sky
#

Yeah yeah i sim the boss targets and use my brain to say if bleed sims = to poison then bleed is better when you add targets

gusty mirage
#

anyway

oak sky
#

Thats the actual correct statement

gusty mirage
#

sennarth is a dogshit boss

#

and whoever designed it

oak sky
#

Agree

gusty mirage
#

needs to be fired

#

like

#

as of yesterday

#

it's not even hard

#

it's just awful

oak sky
#

We moved our prog to monday because we had dcs every pull

#

Might die

#

Hope it does

gusty mirage
#

we missed out chance

#

maybe tuesday

#

oh well

#

no 2 mythic boxes

I heard you didn't know to shadowstep the pull

#

so shut the fuck up

oak sky
#

Bro you just

ebon notch
#

Yeah then I learnt it

oak sky
#

Fall off the edge then step

ebon notch
#

So?

#

I didn't know it wouldn't just no path found me

#

And kill me

oak sky
#

But stepping is bad at some points because it puts you in a bad spot

ebon notch
#

But oxi in a mood today so w,e

ebon notch
gusty mirage
#

you legit came in

oak sky
#

Or you can just get off the boss and hit the rock

ebon notch
#

Looks like it bud

gusty mirage
#

and just go "lol its free"

#

daps

ebon notch
#

Yeah it's not a particularly hard boss

gusty mirage
#

go back to outlaw bro

drifting cloud
#

anvil killed terros!!

oak sky

ebon notch
#

Lmao

#

Haven't gotten dced yet

#

How did it happen to you

oak sky
#

We had multiple every pull last night

drifting cloud
#

they had alot of issues might be server based or some shit

gusty mirage
drifting cloud
#

because we had 0 again today on rekill

oak sky
#

It might have just been tich?

#

Im not sure

gusty mirage
#

nah

ebon notch
#

Probs server based

gusty mirage
#

happened to a friend on ZJ

#

and on illidan

ebon notch
#

Even our DHs flying across the platform didn't DC

#

So

oak sky
#

Well

#

We had multiple different people dc every pull

ebon notch
#

Did you see that bug? Where you just fly across the room

gusty mirage
#

then he teleported inside the platform

#

lol

#

like under the boss

ebon notch
#

Not vibes

oak sky
#

I dced like 3 times

#

But like people were fucking up anyways so like

#

We couldve done prog anyways

ebon notch
#

We found a bug where if someone tries to trade you an item and your inventory is full you DC both people

oak sky
#

We moved because everyone was still available

what the best assassination spec for raz? seems maybe double capstone?

oak sky

#

yeah i just got the normal off the weekly and it sims lower than what I have, but i figure its value is probably more than that in a real situation

For the ST KB build do I use Deadly or Amp poison?

velvet bison
#

amp

balmy condor
#

amp > deadly

balmy condor

instant and wound are not poisons

I figured since if we didn't want amp we'd just take twist the knife

vapid sierra
#

so lets say theres two targets, and your running full st build, do you maintain all dots on both (garrote, rupture, envonem, sbs, shiv, etc)

echo geyser
#

shiv and envenom are not rly dots or am i missing something new in DF

vapid sierra
#

idk

#

first time

tender juniper
#

Hello , if I refresh my bleed during buff on me or debuff on boss. My new bleed will be boost during all the Time of bleed ? Or boost fade when my buff or debuff’s boss fade ?
Ty for your help

velvet bison
#

env buffed u

echo geyser
#

sbs garrote rupture for sure anyways

#

having more dots on multiple targets gives u more energy to play with

velvet bison
vapid sierra
#

kk ty

#

if i send a vid of me doing my rotation could you correct it?

tender juniper
velvet bison
#

idk, never played feral)

oak sky
#

the only thing that snapshots like that is haste when you press exsanguinate

grim jay
#

Logs generally are easier to review for most people

vapid sierra
#

ah

#

can it be a pic of details?

#

or does it have to be a combatlog

grim jay
#

An actual log

shell pollen
#

you missed amp on weapon in this video

vapid sierra
#

amp on weapon?

shell pollen
#

put deadly and amp on weapon (poisons) with this talent build you can have both

vapid sierra
#

ah oopsies

#

apart that rotation fine?

#

idk why im parcing bad, must just be gear since im geared for outlaw

shell pollen
#

I would keep shiv for time when you have more energy not ~30, then you can spam more env. You have to manage energy

trim zinc
#

and save 1 charge for dm

#

dont care about pooling

shell pollen
#

👍

trim zinc
#

thats suuuuper bad

#

u vanish and didnt garrote here

surreal spear
#

Whats the like go to stats to go for as assassination? Thinking m+ and i wanna go between sub and sin, would crit vers/mastery work for sin aswell? Vers goes instead of mastery due to higher keys mitigation

oak sky
#

crit mast is bis stats on sin for all content

#

haste is pretty good for single target but loses value in aoe

#

vers is sort of ok but mostly you would only take it for some damage reduction

surreal spear
#

Okay so same stats as sub, perfect thanks

oak sky
#

haste is definitely less bad compared to sub though

surreal spear
#

Ah yeah well some haste has Found its way due to certain rings and such Anyways Since i havent gotten the raid ones yet

#

Im at 3,8k crit, 3,2k mastery 1k vers and 1,5k haste

#

Crit usually at 4,4K with buzzing Runes

vestal wren
#

assassinaion does decide between haste and mastery as secondary

#

what stat you dip into depends on your talent build

#

also on your trinkets

#

e.g. puzzle box is soo strong that it can shift your stats slightly away from mastery

#

esp. when playing with exsang

#

so as a general rule, always go for crit and agi, mastery and haste both are good as 2nd investment

rocky sluice
#

is the puzzle box actually good?

#

when d you want to use it on the opener

balmy condor
#

it's our bis

Thank you 🙂

deep meteor
#

Hi, when you are playing DTB Bleed w/ exsang build, with puzzle box, do you strictly use it with deathmark? or after opener your sync it with exsang?

balmy condor
#

you sync both puzzle box and exsang together with deathmark

tender cedar
#

Okay then I have to focus more on my uptimes

deep meteor
balmy condor
#

it's about the same either way

#

but it's just easier to sync everything together

elfin forge
#

Would anyone know how I'd set up Amp poison to show stacks like this?

strange python
#

Is it even worth playing around amp poison?

balmy condor
#

but like

#

why

#

you don't play around it at all

#

you just want a weakaura that shows pretty numbers?

#

there's plenty of those

elfin forge
#

Was just curious if its even possible to make such a WA. You are right though, if we don't play around it, then I probs don't even need to know the stack count at all.

balmy condor
#

of course it's possible to make a weakaura like that

marble hemlock
#

Even though it's completely meaningless info EZ

Only as meaningless as you make it seem. 2ez

but ye i mean

#

you know its a good day

timber basalt
#

what build would you guys recommend for +16 academy

balmy condor
#

kbic

timber basalt
#

do i need to take carnage for tree

balmy condor
#

you take kbic

marble hemlock
#

just like you wanna go back to bed when you fok 4times and CT 4 times and half the pack still doesnt have DP up despite you having envenom active

#

also, since when did garrote and rupture casts have a chance to proc poisons WeirdDude

balmy condor
#

since forever

#

but then it was bugged

marble hemlock
#

no sir

balmy condor
#

and then they fixed it

marble hemlock
#

definitely not

balmy condor
#

seli we had !poisonbug

#

for like

marble hemlock
#

mouseover rupture/garrote never procced poisons

balmy condor
#

an expansion

marble hemlock
#

yeah

#

so

#

if its bugged for 2+ years

#

its not a bug, its a feature

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

sub being shit all of bfa was a feature I guess

strange python
#

Hey

marble hemlock
#

yes

strange python
#

It was also shit in Nathria

whispyr

strange python
#

I've already gone on my "blizzard nerfs rogues for being moderately strong and ignores warlocks" rant in sub channel tho

timber basalt
marble hemlock
#

what do you think of this

marble hemlock
#

scent of blood - in addition to its current effect, allows you to apply a second stack of rupture. this is a buff.

timber basalt
#

so i assume hold for 2nd/4th germinate then

marble hemlock
#

that way youd get 6% agi on st instead of 3

marble hemlock
#

and the dmg from a 2nd rupture

#

and itd be cool on 2-3t cleave

balmy condor
marble hemlock
#

too

#

you think itd be too op?

balmy condor
#

I think it's not good gameplay

limber lion
#

It would have the issue of one single point giving ultimate power and the 2nd and 3rd points giving next to none

marble hemlock
#

well

limber lion
#

So you'd play Scent of Blood in single target as well with one point

marble hemlock
#

make the 2nd rupture deal damage at 33/66/100% efficiency

balmy condor
#

I mean, we're ignoring the fact that seli literally just invented deathmark but only for rupture and somehow even clunkier

#

so you're telling me I get deathmark passively on rupture

#

but I also have to track two ruptures at the same time?

#

and which does it refresh? the lowest duration one?

marble hemlock
#

yes

#

yes

balmy condor
#

that's stupid

marble hemlock
#

no u

#

i just want assa to be good at 2-3t cleave again

#

dont judge me

marble hemlock
#

dot class sucking ass at multitarget

balmy condor
#

that wouldn't even help

marble hemlock
#

is a human rights violation

limber lion
balmy condor
#

in 3 target you already have your hands full with CT and 3 ruptures

#

how are you going to get 3 more ruptures out

marble hemlock
#

with a positive mental attitude

balmy condor
balmy condor

figure that one out and come back to me with a 25 step opener I want it on my desk by monday morning thanks

seli respectfully I haven't gone to bed but this conversation is making me feel like I just woke up

strange python
#

Can I go back to being upset that sin got nerfed in week 1 of vault for being 2% ahead but aff never got nerfed in Nathria and destro was 16% ahead of the pack in sepulcher?

marble hemlock
#

the only thing i want you to do to me respectfully isnt legal in 34 states

limber lion
marble hemlock
#

we should be happy that theyre taking a faster tuning approach

#

as long as its consistent

#

for the rest of the expac

strange python
marble hemlock
#

who gives a fuck about sub

#

pvp spec

oak meadow
#

So i guess there should be a class tuning this week ?

balmy condor
#

doubtful

marble hemlock
#

blizzard maximum confirmed shadow changes, at least

strange python
#

😦 it's always "good we have more reactive tuning now" when rogue nerfed. And always silence when warlocks buffed/left OP

balmy condor
#

oh

#

well yeah the shadow stuff

#

idk if it's much bigger though

marble hemlock
#

doubt it

strange python
#

I'm dreading/expecting rogue nerfs.

oak meadow
#

What shadow stuff ? 🤔

strange python
#

Because of general community sentiment

lucid birch
#

they should buff ele i think but I’m a casual

limber lion
strange python
limber lion
#

Good

strange python
#

It also spent 3 years as the unmitigated worst spec in the game

limber lion
#

Yeah? Well Assa was bad for one patch so yeah that's nothing

strange python
#

Fires like, the 8th worst spec for four days and gets hotfix buffed.

balmy condor
strange python
#

I'm just tired of rogues being nerfed for some explained criteria that never seems to apply to mages and warlocks.

#

And no, I don't want to play a warlock then.

subtle tundra
#

Hmm? Did rogue get more nerfs?

marble hemlock
#

thats fair, im tired of people whining about warlock/mage/boomy tuning compared to rogue

subtle tundra
#

Other than the 3%

#

No I'm still salty about week 1 sin nerfs because sin was 2% ahead of the pack on week 1/heroic week

I’m tired of being so bad at the game I can’t enjoy being one of the strongest dps in the game

subtle tundra
#

It's fine Ill come back stronger

limber lion
#

I'm only #2 in boss dps now, it's actually tragic

viscid spear
strange python
#

Except...yes. Warlocks ran 23% ahead of the pack in Nathria and 16% ahead in sepulcher and go untouched. Sin is 2% ahead for a week and gets a nerf.

subtle tundra
#

Also outlaw 2t being stronger than assa is stupid.

Those sound like made up numbers

I think my outlaw sim is almost 80k

I'm gonna pass

I'm so scared to look at other people's gear

Cuz mr streamer said outlaw is better

subtle tundra

I'm still 405

burnt latch
#

415 gang here

subtle tundra
marble hemlock
#

in what world is outlaw better

#

best m+ spec is sub, not outlaw

#

that fucking myth needs to die

#

on a pyre

strange python
#

No

oak meadow
#

Idk ask them

sonic spindle
#

Just like outlaw

marble hemlock
#

true

#

burn outlaw

oak meadow

Maybe cuz its easier i guess

burnt latch

Tell them outlaw is best. Let outlaw be our scapegoat. Get outlaw nerfed.

marble hemlock
balmy condor

#

Many people also say subs the best. Both people are dumb

wispy summit
balmy condor
#

also my herb despawned typing that can someone please fucking stop

marble hemlock
#

but

#

its not

#

why are people still saying sub is hard

#

that myth also needs to die

burnt latch
#

Subs easier tbh

sonic spindle
#

Before I came back to wow it did seem like all the “guides” and rogue reviews said outlaw was gonna still be the M+ go-to

wispy summit
#

I'm not saying sub is hard

marble hemlock
#

it was true in like

#

legion

#

but HO outlaw is actually not easy

oak meadow
#

Literally all these content creator just blast m+ tierlists and people blindly follows them

wispy summit
#

I'm saying toggling BF is by far easier

strange python
#

HO outlaw isn't hard, either.

subtle tundra
#

The only places outlaw can outdps me is dungeons on Tyra with many pulls with low HP mobs like temple

strange python
#

It's medium.

burnt latch
#

Whoevers claiming current sub is harder than current outlaw hasnt played both specs

dark token
#

sub is the easiest rn

balmy condor
#

outlaw is harder than sub

dark token
#

by a significant margin

#

outlaw is the hardest

strange python
#

Hardest part of HO outlaw is getting familiar with reroll logic and finishing rules around procs.

#

But current sub is extremely simple

vestal wren
#

hard and easy is difficult to quantify

burnt latch
dark token
#

i quantify it by how much do i have to stare at my rotation bars and think about my rotation to do optimal dps

vestal wren
#

outlaw is "hard" in that it can happen that you need to do qucik decisions

burnt latch
#

Different folks different strokes

strange python
#

Sin is genuinely the most complicated of the three specs atm

dark token
#

sub is literally chilling the whole time, repeat cycles of single dance

#

sin has a 20 key piano opener

vestal wren
#

what can be the case on subtlety with shuriken tornado or outlaw with 0.8 sec gcd

dark token
#

outlaw i have to focus a lot more to react to procs and weird stuff like vanish/SD rules

vestal wren
#

but hard can also just refer to button count

#

having a lot of buttons can alone make a spec hard

dark token
#

sub by FAR the easiest spec because it requires least attention to rotation and u can focus on m+/boss mechanics

burnt latch
vestal wren
#

idk

oak meadow
#

U guys think sub is better than assa in lower keys we talking 14 16s still gearing

vestal wren
#

assassination has a fairly strict "game plan"

strange python
limber lion
dark token
#

i have no idea how anyone says sin is harder than outlaw rn, doing outlaw keys and reacting to procs optimally while doing mechanics is actually quite difficult compared to sin if you dont wanna do garbage dps

strange python
#

Well keys aren't real content

subtle tundra
viscid spear
burnt latch
strange python
#

Diablo is the other game blizzard makes.

vestal wren
#

if anything you can say they all can be learned easy

dark token
#

they are harder than raid mechanics imo

#

keys

vestal wren
#

and if you want to min/max you have room to do so

strange python
#

If I wanted to do rifts, I'd do rifts.

limber lion
#

Difficulty is pretty subjective honestly. Some people have major issues with Assa on 2+ targets but find single target super duper easy, whilst some people think Outlaw is super easy and just whack-a-mole and some think it's super difficult because it's so fast

subtle tundra
limber lion
#

different things for different folk

vestal wren
#

subtlety min/max is positioning and knowlage mostly

dark token
#

rupture spreading optimally on sub really

#

is the only "skillful" thing imo

vestal wren
#

only exception is rly the aoe opener for subtlety

#

anyone who think subtlety is easy, just should blindly do it

dark token
#

u can do it with 1 button macro and get a 99% on primal council

vestal wren
#

if he can't get it right first try

#

subtlety is not easy

dark token
#

sure if you dont macro anything

#

i legit macro everything on sub and its pretty braindead

#

but i like it, chilling and big dmg

limber lion
oak meadow
#

What kinda macro we talking about @dark token

dark token
#
/cast Shuriken Tornado
/cast [stance:0] Shadow Dance
/cast Thistle Tea
/cast Shadow Blades
/cast Symbols of Death
#

u lose 1 global in dance on opener but it doesnt matter cause u probably lose 1 global (and ur sanity) pressing all buttons seperately anyway

strange python
#

That's...not a good macro.

vestal wren
#

parses have to many influence factors to be a good metric for skill

dark token
strange python
#

Getting every cast out of a dance is basically the only skill expression that matters for sub

vestal wren
#

but yes, people with good gear, practice and knowlage do parse better than those who lack in one or multiple areas

limber lion
#

Outlaw to me is the hardest spec because that shit literally hurts my hands so much that I have to stop playing after an hour.

dark token
#

yes that too

strange python
#

You're basically just admitting you can't do it and saying "easy spec" with that macro

dark token
#

it hurts hands and requires more staring at weakauras and focus

agile geode
#

assa with ex is very hard to master for me

#

im having a lot of problems

dark token
oak meadow
#

Toxic isnt it bed time already bud ?

dark token
#

when i can hit 1 button

vestal wren
#

exsanguinate now has a fairly high cooldown

dark token
#

yeah but opener i still mess up after 50 pulls

strange python
#

Losing 15% of your shadow dance casts isn't trivial lol

dark token
#

sometimes

vestal wren
#

so even tho i disslike exsang

dark token
#

how is it losing 15% of ur sd casts

#

its once a minute

vestal wren
#

i think a lot of issues with it got solved

#

by the long cooldown

dark token
#

actually once on pull

#

you dont use this macro otherwise

#

1 global in a fight is trivial

strange python
#

Exsang isn't that complicated tbh. It has a relatively scripted setup

#

It's just...unfun and clunky

dark token
#

anyway if i wanted to just hit shuriken tornado and then hit the "all cds" button

#

its fixable i just really CBA to optimize it

#

split it into 2 macros

subtle tundra
#

Pretty sure we all agree that once you get the grasp of how this game works no spec is hard

strange python
#

Hardest part of exsang is doing the math in the moment on whether or not to delay for DM

dark token
#

can you do a cast sequence with multiple abilities

strange python
limber lion
#

Yeh

strange python
#

Hmm

dark token
#

on spider boss

#

which is 7 mins for us

limber lion
#

You just do what you think is right for the encounter

strange python
#

Idk. We tried a few pulls on kurog as sin before kill last week and I definitely had to hold my last exsang. But that's an intermission/enrage thing

#

Not a pure overall DPS optimization thing

limber lion
#

You hold it everytime

#

On Kurog especially

#

You send DM on cooldown and hold Exsang for p2 and p3

#

Literally pointless to send it during intermission on adds without deathmark

#

instead of sending on boss with all cds in p2 and p3 where it matters

strange python
#

We had issues with earth ele dying in time

#

But I only played it two pulls

#

Outlaw prison

dark token
#

ye kurog prog is hurting my hand

vagrant mauve
#

i need one

dark token
#

wish i can go back to sin/sub but its just too good and we need me for intermission dmg

#

im top by like 10% in intermission

limber lion
#

padding on small adds

#

smh

dark token
#

they do matter, casts can kill people

strange python
#

Tbh the public kurog logs right now are pretty strong

dark token
#

is it just me or a lot more guilds private log now

limber lion
#

We're still very early into the tier

dark token
#

yeah fair enough

vestal wren
#

private logging has a lot of benefits

limber lion
#

Literally 10 guilds have killed Raszageth

vestal wren
#

so it is understandable

limber lion
#

And every other guild is still at 50%+ prog on it lol

vestal wren
#

most guilds are not further than 4-5

strange python
#

Private logging makes me feel less bad about having dogshit trinkets and seeing all the public logs with good CCT or grieftorch

dark token
#

i dont see any

vestal wren
#

wcl statistic iirc does only show first 4 bosses, this means there are not even 50 public logs

strange python
#

Try convincing your public logging outlaw rogues to not waste globals using blade flurry in P3 of kurog with the enrage staring you down.

marble hemlock
#

ez

#

bench them

strange python
#

Much easier to do with private logs

marble hemlock
#

if they pad

dark token
#

oh nooo people can see your strats! they can do the same with vod

strange python
#

It's less about strats. More about human nature.

#

People pad like apes for public logs

dark token
#

its my assumption people in good guilds arent mongoloid padders with only private logs holding them back

#

aka the guilds that people private log

strange python
#

I mean

subtle tundra
dark token
#

kick dps that wont hold dmg and do dumb padding over mechs

strange python
#

Look at the top outlaw logs on kurog right now. They're blade flurrying P3 and they're only seconds away from enrage.

#

And those are players in good guilds

dark token
#

might even be habit tbh

strange python
#

Not to name names but they're public and super clear

dark token
#

2t = bf

strange python
#

I mean sure. And a few casts of BF isn't making the difference between enrage and not

#

It was just the example first to mind

dark token
#

my WA for example glows if more than 1 target in range so ihit that asap whenever it glows

strange python
#

People do degenerate shit for logs when it's public

vestal wren
# dark token i dont see any

depends on the wold rank, but in general i hear a lot say they are afraid of poaching and privat loging gives you more incentive to play for the kill rather than logs in lower progression guilds

subtle tundra
#

It did feel bad to be 405 ilvl on kurog while my guildies were 410+ and we were wiping to enrage

#

But fuck master looter

It's honestly good because it's a safe thing to socket when you inevitably get a bad vault

Still a free 300 dps or whatever

so eranog ring is bis if u can procc it with cowl etc?

and my 2nd ring i guess is the signet from cos? 😄

wind ingot
#

2 questions, first, is DTB a significant dps loss? It feels substantially more simple.
Second, on KB opener, it says to never use death with exsanguinate, but I can still use it immediately after the cast as long as it doesn’t actually affect my death duration?

thorny pond

Exsang before DM

dbt is easier to play so it is recommended

Afternoon all ....... Anyone got any good options for when using Kb , Ic build to gain a point maybe in spike ... any options to change a point here and there to not lose the aoe but gaine little single as feel can do better slight single as DTB

balmy condor
#

Nope

#

You need all 10 points below the gate to get kb and ic

#

Best you could do it trying to reroute the fok points into venom rush

hexed narwhal
#

Is there any clever macroing for sin especially with KB/IC to pack a few buttons together? thinking in the style of sub having multple CD's in one key

so with DTB in keys i ned to spread all garrotes and ruptures manualy ?

ill need to try it

Guys. How critical strike directly affect my poisons and bleed?

normal mist
#

Depends

#

If you going dtb route, your poison crits give you energy if I'm not mistaken

urban mantle
#

Yes. But, i mean. How it critically affects them directly. What is a poison/bleed dots with crits

normal mist
#

Hit a dummie

urban mantle
#

I know that envenom crits its chance to double dmg. But how is that affect my Dots? its good to have more dmg with poison and bleed while im focusing crit stats

normal mist
#

?

#

Aren't you overthinking it?

urban mantle
#

maybe. But i wanna understand what happened with Dots when u have crits. Like, its good? they do more dmg or not

#

They double dmg like a hit or dmg overtime those not have same effect

grim jay
#

They crit

normal mist
#

Hit a dummie and you'll see poisons and bleed crit

grim jay
#

The question is kinda dunno

#

What happens if a spell crits?

It hurts... More!

#

G’day folks, anyone have a player profile for tracking ruptures / garrotte? Had one in SL but lost it after taking a break

#

Plater*

urban mantle
#

yeah, i know. But dmg over time its not a direct hit, so was thinking that maybe have different mechanics

grim jay
#

Each damage instance of a spell can crit, so if a dot crits, that damageinstance that crits deals more dmg

#

Same with multihit spells

Hey yall, could you please provide some resources for me to read up/watch for assasination rogue in pvp? I played wotlk last and at the moment assasination rogue feels like a totally new spec and I'm hard struggling at 1400 playing really bad OMEGAKEKW .
