Wait that was implemented

smoky venture
#

i cant swap these 2 in my rotation my brain wont let me

spice spire
#

Gonna keep myself safe

oblique jackal
#

Did anyone else lose all their talent profiles?

muted ridge
sand elm
#

what trinkets are u guys running for m+?

spice spire
#

Boon + whetstone

#

Because fuck the police

muted ridge
#

Puzzle + Current Technique

sand elm
#

look out we got a badass over here

brazen zodiac
#

^

#

same

sand elm
#

been trying out different combinations to see what works best but cant settle on anything

spice spire
#

I only like boon in like.
Academy, and RLP.

#

Maybe vaults?

#

Oh and NO

muted ridge
#

Boon is unethical on Tree packs in Academy

sand elm
#

ive got boon, whetstone, manic, puzzle and ct

spice spire
#

It’s been a hot second since I’ve done a nokhud

coarse bear
#

what embelishment do we go before eranog ring?

muted ridge
#

cowl + lariat? i dont really get the question

sand elm
#

is ct better to take than whetstone?

coarse bear
#

I meant eranog

spice spire
#

CT is probably better to not juggle if you’re having issues with offsetting trinkets

muted ridge
#

Cowl is good even without Eranog ring

deft aurora
#

what piece should i craft after the lariat and dagger?

smoky venture
#

is eggnog ring > court ring?

spice spire
#

Took me a second to parse through what CT was

sand elm
#

well offsetting isnt really an issue in m+ so

shut owl
#

I love boon in all kindsa places kek makes my healers panic until I shadowstep

sand elm
#

im sick of using boon in dungeons tho cos tanks keep fucking moving mobs out of it

spice spire
sand elm
#

fair

spice spire
#

Boon is also good for cheesing some pushbacks and pulls.
Ie sennarth, dathea

muted ridge
spice spire
#

But can be kinda sus

smoky venture
#

so the crafted ring is just a placeholder till eggnog+court

sand elm
#

well im talking more in m+ setting

muted ridge
#

Sorta

#

honestly, just sim it

sand elm
#

i have puzzle box + hc manic for raids

#

trying to decide on a good combo of trinkets between those 5

muted ridge
#

Like for me Eranog ring replaces crafted 418

#

and keeps COS one

smoky venture
#

fancy aight coolbeans

sand elm
muted ridge
#

It's pretty good ye

#

honestly all trinkets work, I kinda see it as personal preference whether you go CT + puzzle or with Boon and whetstone or any other combo of those

balmy condor
sand elm
#

theyre all good, i just cant decide on which combo to use

muted ridge
#

which ever suits you

#

or Sim it

sand elm
#

ct i like cos it has passive use even on trash throughout the whole dungeon

smoky venture
#

but muh fast bleeds feelscryman

balmy condor
#

but if you're not capable of doing that, would be better to not cut your main cooldown in half

smoky venture
#

ill keep workin on it for now

DTB only 1000 less in sims over kb exsang

balmy condor

you'll get there

#

DTB it is baby

balmy condor
cerulean nest
#

well dtb exsang I guess

balmy condor
#

that's bleed dtb yepge

cerulean nest
#

its gross but slightly less gross

#

also jk only 300 difference

#

on M terros would i hold exsang ever or just send

#

for the 4min DM I guess would be the only time to do it

#

I’m gonna start logging my keys. Would posting review logs for dungeons be accepted here?

#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
spice spire
#

But they take a ton of time

#

So I’d message someone here before hand

#

I’d still post compared to dm because others may want to share perspective

#

But it’s not always a guarantee

#

Because it’s about an hour or so review and that’s a ton of time

#

my tummy hurt dead

stray mural
#

It mostly stems from insecurity and I need somebody to tell me what I’m doing right and what I’m doing wrong.

#

Feels like no matter what key I run I can’t break 60k dps overall with my current gear

shut owl
#

have you watched seli run some keys?

stray mural
#

No

#

I should

#

Like every single pack plays out the same. IC, Garrote, ER, Rupture, Mutilate/Envenom until I hit the cp for an empowered CT. Always rotating shiv, always using Kingsbane, vanishing on bigger packs and using DM appropriately.

spice spire
#

Any key log reviewers in chat?

stray mural
#

If it sounds like I’m doing it fine I’m not going to burden the fine people here

brazen zodiac
#

well uh

#

when u say mutilate in aoe

spice spire
#

Nah If you want help, you want help

r u talking about 2 targets lol

I need so much practice with KB/IC 😦 it sims 2-3% higher than DTB but I suck so I do less damage

spice spire
#

AG: it’s just a large undertaking, just a heads up is nice is all

balmy condor
#

better yet, how many log reviews not in ehre do you think come through my dm's first

spice spire
#

More than I’ve done this tier

#

And I’ve done a few kekdog

shut owl
#

I send whispyr at least 30 review requests a day. they aren't even mine, I just send em.

teal bloom
#

I want to slide into Whispyrs dms 😏

spice spire

You can send them to other people, it’s okay

100 dps diff between kingsbane and dtb hmm do i want to be cringe or no

balmy condor
# spice spire Too damn many

my brain is so mush I thought I've ordered food 3 times now but every time I open my uber eats I see this again because I didn't actually order anything my eyes just glazed over and I did other things instead

spice spire

I really do try to do as many log reviews as possible, guild stuff has been painful

spice spire

I have so many things to put in

brazen zodiac

ofc her music was gonna become shit LMAO

spice spire

I “met” her in the late 00s I got an opinion of her that stuck for life SMH

brazen zodiac

she do kinda be rude now those interviews arent very nice

spice spire

And now I have to listen to it every day man

are there any situations where you would let your rupture/garrote fall off before reapplying them in single target? like during exsanguinate?

0 water enjoyer?

Is there a preferred fight style for simming council fights, or just sort of winging it?

teal bloom

you can 4 target patchwerk sim for council

Oh, lovely as well.

#

okay cool

#

the FAQ mentions syncing ER and exsang. is ER worth holding for non-exsang deathmarks? or do i only hold it for 4min in when exsang and deathmark are sync'd again?

balmy condor
#

you hold puzzle box and exsang for the 4 min deathmark usually

flat garden
#

yep

#

but echoing reprimand. is that worth holding for anything other than the 4min deathmark?

balmy condor
#

you always ER on cooldown, and ER before exsang

#

ER -> rup -> exsang

#

is just a permanent combo

cloud moat
flat garden
#

okay great. don't hold ER except for when exsang is about to sync up for the 4min deathmark. got it

pulsar apex
#

Is DTB + Carnage ever a thing? Maybe a thing in 10.0.5?

balmy condor
cloud moat
#

But potentially a 0,01% DPS gain? 2ez

balmy condor
pulsar apex
#

ooooo

cloud moat
#

That's the shit I'm doing and it just feels right

balmy condor
pulsar apex
#

KB dead because it needed Zoldyk etc?

fading mason
#

has anyone simmed tiny toxic blade with the aoe shiv for plus

balmy condor
#

gut feeling says it might actually be worse

balmy condor
cloud moat
balmy condor
#

I mean okay

#

that's probably very minor gains

#

but you're still overcapping a billion cp

#

so

#

doubt it

cloud moat
balmy condor
#

like deathmark vanish gar is already 5 cp

cloud moat
#

Gotta pop those ambushes

balmy condor
#

so you always gar finish gar

#

5cp env is slightly more than an ambush

#

so

#

I think it's actually worse

cloud moat
#

I don't sync dm and vanish

arctic hare
#

so with the ruby whelp shell, you can only train it in one thing alone?

balmy condor
cloud moat
#

If anything I sync it once vanish is about to come off cd if it feels right for the fight

balmy condor
strange python
#

Whispyr's taking my job

arctic hare
#

I meant max it out, but hopefully you can replace it, cause i've got it trained in two areas at once with one point respectively

cloud moat
#

Isn't desyncing vanish with DM a potential DPS increase tho

arctic hare
#

nope, combining that buffed garrote and doubling it would be much stronger would it not?

cloud moat
#

DTB no exsang

#

Because for some reason that shit Sims the highest for me rn

sly elk
#

I heard we are getting buffed

arctic hare
#

we are

sly elk
#

Wonderful

balmy condor

Whispyr I’m a big fan of your guides

arctic hare
#

we get a few changes, which are nice lol

cloud moat
sly elk
#

You’ve made me a better rogue

arctic hare
#

Therefore, would it not be indirectly a buff?

cloud moat
#

Additional options =/= Buffs

balmy condor
#

our best builds in 10.0.5 right now are the fucking same as we play now

#

bro

#

what

arctic hare
#

Right, but shivvvvvvvvv spreadddddd

balmy condor
sly elk
#

Oh okay. So we didn’t get buffs?

balmy condor
#

we got a new capstone that's like fine at best and terrible at worst

sly elk
#

I heard the point allocation thing changed our build but I trust the rogue heads

balmy condor
#

our best single target build is the same as now

#

and our best dungeonslice build is exactly the same damage as right now, but we take DTB

arctic hare
#

Really? well thats slightly depressing

balmy condor
#

didn't I tell you to read pins

#

like 2 minutes ago

cloud moat
sly elk
#

That’s not depressing, I’m glad we are performing so well

arctic hare
#

Yes. (personal coping mechanism...)

craggy oak

the king is dead - long live DTB

balmy condor
arctic hare
#

Lol

balmy condor
#

"Desyncing" vanish and deathmark is like this

#

you still vanish in deathmark though

#

you don't full desync

#

in fact, most people just hold deathmark for vanish at 2 min anyway

#

and if you play with exsang you would be HARD trolling to not vanish gar exsang DM

cloud moat
#

The initial imp garrote drops during DM right? that's how I do it

balmy condor
cloud moat
#

On the opener

#

Sorry if I was unclear

sly elk
#

So I’m confused on that and it’s part of why I came here. After the opener is it just maintaining DoTs and also do I weave in bone spikes between mutilate dots or just hit it and forget it?

balmy condor
#

we aren't talking bout opener brother man

cloud moat
balmy condor
#

the convo was ambushing on every vanish that is not opener

#

was it not?

cloud moat
#

Too many words make my pea brain confused

mystic gate
#

k im just stupid af but why not do 2 gar in opener ?

#

it does extend

Are yall using Exsang as 4poison build?

balmy condor
# cloud moat Too many words make my pea brain confused

okay, papi whispyr explain for pea brain

you pea brain press vanish ambush gar gar. You do that during deathmark. gar give 5cp during deathmark. you overcap 5cp because ambush 2 + gar 5 + gar 5

me big brain press vanish gar env gar. Me do that during deathmark. gar give 5cp during deathmark. me no overcap 5cp because gar 5 -> env + gar 5

5cp env > ambush

But don’t overwrite a improved garrote with a normal one

#

Could be wrong

teal bloom
#

@balmy condor if you are energy capped so the smaller energy cost doesn't matter, is SBS still better builder than mutilate?

sly elk
sly elk
#

I might be wrong

balmy condor
#

the 5.4 second thing

#

when you refresh

#

it adds to the new one

sly elk
#

I see

balmy condor
#

so when you gar->gar

#

you actually get a 24 second garrote

#

which is great

#

cause if you exsang a 24 second garrote

raw raft
#

Yo Kingsbane doa on 10.0.5 LETSGOO

balmy condor
#

it's better than an 18 second garrote

#

cause math

sly elk
#

Wait so you garrote 2 times in a row?

vapid sierra
#

Depends on build

balmy condor
#

yeh most openers go gar -> snd -> gar

#

but it's only worth with shrouded suffocation

#

because the combo points drive the value up

sly elk
#

I see

#

So if I deathblow, does it make 2 24 second garrotes

balmy condor
#

ya

sly elk
#

Oh that’s neat

balmy condor
#

but the duplication drops when deathmark is finished

#

so you don't really get the full 24 seconds

desert gate
#

I'm oblivious, but I couldn't find it in the FAQ sheets, what are sins stat prio? - moving from outlaw to sin/sub for more ST ❤️

pulsar apex
#

im a dumbo pea brain too. because why does 2x gar give 23 second total gar. doesnt pandemic only kick in under 5.4 seconds?

balmy condor

#

wait dtb exsang takes one shiv

desert gate

#

thats spicy

raw raft
pulsar apex
#

i think i dont understand pandemic. why is 5 seconds being added on? i thought it only added the 5 seconds if you pressed again when its < 5 seconds.

balmy condor
#

it adds the remaining time

sly elk
#

That’s what I used to think too

balmy condor
#

if you garrote at 5.2, it adds 5.2

#

if you garrote at 2, it adds 2

sly elk
#

That it only worked at the end of duration

#

I was wrong

#

I think

vapid sierra
#

If i refresh before pandemic do i stil get the extra 5.4 seconds? I know it wastes time and ressources since that can be used for a envenom but just curious

balmy condor
#

yes

#

!pd

prisma monolithBOT
#

Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs

balmy condor
#

maybe this helps

sly elk
#

Okay I see

balmy condor
#

the max is 30%

#

but any time under that also works

sly elk
#

So when I refresh it I should also do it to where I get 5.2 seconds added on

pulsar apex
#

oh yes. gar at 2 is only adding 2

#

i really didnt understand pandemic

unborn mason
#

I really don't like the opener for DTB without SS, is it that much of a drop if I take out a point in Zoldyck for it?

unborn mason
#

will do

#

queue's a bit long, figured I'd ask here if someone already knew it

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

I mean if you play poison dtb

#

it's gonna be worse

#

if you play bleed dtb, you're already taking it

#

any variance from that is going to be worse

#

idk how much worse though

vapid sierra
#

at what time do you hold dm and trinkets for a lust?

pulsar apex
#

How much of a dps loss (and is it measurable/simmable/demonstratable) to refresh a dot (say Gar);

Before Pandemic range.
In Pandemic range
X time after dropping

?

vapid sierra
#

and at what point do you hold a trinket for dm?

vapid sierra
#

IG gets casted from stealth, so if that one is falling out, wait for it to be at like 1 second and then refresh

#

if its a normal garrote, just refresh in pandemic

#

if you have a imporved garrote, you can vanish then garrote during pandemic to extend the improved garrote

#

thats the way i do it atleast

#

and dont forget dm before vanish

keen spruce
#

assuming non-imp-garrote. refreshing early essentially wastes a global

#

any time in pandemic good

#

and the dps you lose dropping garrote is the damage that garrote is doing

#

I dunno why you'd sim doing something wrong

#

just refresh in pandemic. if it's improved then refresh on the global that it runs out

#

ty all.

kingsbane just doing 1 mil per cast, 400k dps burst on opener

#

nearly 10% buff over current single target builds

#

yeah

#

seems fine

sly elk
#

I see this as an absolute win

balmy condor
#

it would be the only viable build to exist

#

which goes against the design of the talent trees

#

so then what

#

you would have to nerf kingsbane, it's the outlier

#

but that means kingsbane would suck without dtb

#

so instead of having a viable kingsbane build and a viable dtb build

#

now you just made kingsbane ONLY viable when running dtb

#

and unplayable otherwise

#

and you caused balancing issues for the entire tree, in pve and pvp

#

and at best, you would be able to play a kingsbane build with 2 poisons instead of 1

#

EARTHSHATTERING GAMEPLAY HOLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYY

#

I'm pogging

sly elk
#

Nah just buff everything else to also give us 400k dps openers

#

Ez 5head

balmy condor
#

it's just so much work

#

for nothing

and the only thing it does is kill build diversity and make a required combo that eats legit 15/30 points on the spot in order to execute

#

doesn't even make a difference gameplay wise

oak sky
#

i like them as a choice node its just unfortunate that kb ends up losing the priority position by blindside and zoldyck

balmy condor
#

KB+DTB is just actually such a stupid idea

#

if you think about it

sly elk
#

Make them both tier 1 talents

balmy condor
#

for more than 3 second

soft sigil
#

do I save spenders to maximize envenom and EP for ST?

sand elm
#

any1 else really fucking loathe spiteful

balmy condor
soft sigil
balmy condor
#

yeah

#

if env and ep are both up and you're just sitting there at 5cp and 20 energy

#

wait for a second or two

#

and then go

#

it won't give you a dps bump that you will never notice, but at least you can feel better about yourself knowing you're doing the right thing

#

and that's what really matters

regal nymph
#

does wowhead have the 10.0.5 patch talent trees?

soft sigil
#

thank you for the clear response

sly elk
#

So what embellishments do you guys like? I imagine fang but what else

visual moth
#

Like full on items?

#

If you have the ring from Eranog, then the Head is really strong.

#

It's a ridicolous amount of dmg tbh

sly elk
#

I don’t think I’ve ever seen it drop ever

visual moth
#

Well I got it haha but it can also come from vault

#

but its a "very rare"

#

Lariat is also very strong

#

Thats the two that i personally run at least 🙂

sly elk
#

I see

#

So not fang adornments? I heard it was a big bump

#

I guess lariat is also probably decently substantial

hollow dirge
balmy condor
balmy condor
#

your solution actually just kills the talent entirely

hollow dirge
#

How much stronger do you think would they have to tune it to be even considered?

balmy condor
#

looks like 5%

oak sky
#

is arterial+ a point in zoldyck better than shrouded and sbs

vapid sierra
#

can someone take a look at my log?

#

cant tell what im doing wrong

oak sky
#

smoge

hollow dirge
# balmy condor

Interesting. Would assume it’s further behind.
Either way fun stuff.. hopefully they tune it so that we have good few options on st too.

#

This patch was actually super fun so far regarding the new talent trees, playing like 4 different assa single target builds, not many classes had this many viable options at the same point in time.

regal nymph
#

was assassination's tree really in need of change?

hollow dirge
balmy condor
#

our aoe/cleave design needs some looking at

#

right now we're spreading dots in cleave for not really impressive damage, and in aoe we're shackled to to crimson tempest

flint tusk
#

In before exsang becomes an aoe

balmy condor
#

I think the bigger issue is the class tree though

runic hinge
sly elk
#

So does exsang have a duration?

#

Or like if I use it in bone spikes will it just always be 80% faster forever

visual moth
#

So I said this basically earlier before the change

#

if you werent an assassination onetrick

#

then might aswell just Sub or Outlaw in m+ lol

regal nymph
#

sub seems pretty easy to just enter into

visual moth
#

And no Exsang doesnt work like that Doom

#

It basically takes your CD and cuts it in half and makes it tick double as fast

#

thats why Echoing Reprimand -> Exang is super good

#

So imagine it as a buff to your CURRENT debuff

#

bleed*

#

I would say sub is decently easy to enter

#

just need to get used to it

#

THe whole secret tech thing

glad marsh
#

The PTR talent changes makes me sad, I was enjoying using KB + IC in dungeons 😦

sly elk
#

Okay so if I have a bone spike and I exanguinate, it won’t make it 80% faster

visual moth
#

Bone spike is not affected

sly elk
#

I see

#

That’s a shame

visual moth
#

Otherwise that would be broken af haha

#

imagine it back when it had the 45 sec 100%

#

holy moly

#

85% of my dmg would just be bone spike

glad marsh
#

Infinitely scaling bonespike

sly elk
#

I guess that’s true

glad marsh
#

Thatd be hilarious

visual moth
#

It would be what we rogue specialists would call "very cash money"

it's fine

but not great

you think they tune before .5? especially kb?

I hope KB builds get better, a lot more interactive honestly

So with the DTB+IC build for 10.0.5, does it make sense to go fishing for poison bombs at 4+ targets or continue hitting CT?

vapid sierra

we already play PB + IC on council

the logic there is essentially maintain envenom, otherwise CT

Hey yall I just found out that I have been using deathmark wrong, but even now I am still not sure how to properly do my opener. Am I supposed to drop both an enhanced garrote and an anima charged rupture during deathmark or am I saving my anima combo points for envenom? I am playing DTB build

shy meteor
#

do u ever refresh garrote or rupture during a shrouded suffocation garrote / exagnuinated rupter / garrote?

balmy condor

would check there

it has full openers

how do you analyse Envenom Buff uptime?

should be in threads

Hey frens, does iron wire + IC silence work on the Dathea adds on the islands? It doesn't feel like they're getting silenced for the whole duration but IDK

should u try to save a thistle tea for shivs on raid fights? or just use on CD when low?

With the 0.5 changes is the AP/IC a nerf or buff to M+? It looks kinda meh. I kinda liked having some form of single target damage on bosses. Feels like all of the eggs are in CD based aoe now? If the group doesn't pull around your cds could be worse, if they do it might be a buff?

royal lantern
#

and the new talent gives us a 25sec aoe soothe, can be handy

Is the .5 change final? Or we still discussing about it?

topaz bluff
royal lantern

and you gain the middle

I still don't think zoldyck should be on the left.

topaz bluff

I get pb and dashing and amp, and give up blindside, systemic, and zoldyck. I don't like that trade at all 😂

#

Namely zold

royal lantern

lets not act as if blindside is some sick gain for m+ when you are pressing FoK most of the time

odd dew
#

Anyone working on Assassination for Wowanalyzer?

drifting cloud
#

doubtful

topaz bluff
#

It's ok for boss damage. I agree not amazing, but zoldyck is the biggest issue.

Guess maybe go dtb+zold and don't have IC now? That doesn't seem good either though lol.

Maybe I'll poke around and find something.

regal nymph
#

why can't they just not have ic be a capstone

#

😦

balmy condor
#

and you didn't craft a dagger?

#

pain

smoky venture
#

i wasnt sold on combat or ass at the time

topaz bluff
#

IC and Ex just need to swap places lol. Adjust Ex cooldown to compensate and increase it's strength back up. IC leading into IW kinda makes more sense too

smoky venture
#

and now im just waiting till i kill terros

drifting cloud
#

waiting for what, crafted dagger is still higher ilvl than terros

#

with better stats

balmy condor

outlaw uses a dagger too

upbeat needle
#

with exang should you be refreshing rupture before you press?

topaz bluff

Crafted dagger is 418ilvl with just farming a few 16s. You going to need mythic 421 dagger or a +20 vault dagger to beat a crafted handily, no?

shut owl

At least the very few I saw. I'm sure the majority are fine, but most bears and dks etc. you see there learned their defensives by 16s lol. Moreso than warriors.

stray mural
#

this is gonna sound a little silly but do we always spend er cp on envenom when playing dtb

#

or is a rupture okay before sang

vapid sierra
#

dont you wanna rupture before exsang?

#

er>rup>sang?

stray mural
#

oh

vapid sierra
#

idk, new to this shit

stray mural
#

me too

vapid sierra
#

since the cds sync together

#

sang hurt my head, i dropped it

stray mural
#

what did you drop it for

#

improved poisons?

topaz bluff
#

I think Ex feels more awkward for players learn now than before. You don't use it very often that when it does come up you have to check all the boxes before hitting it. At least before you pressed it often enough you "got it" quicker.

vapid sierra
#

dropping it is a 1% loss

#

using it inccorectly is like 10%

#

heres what im using rn

#

since i have 4set im running a bleed build

#

wait

#

thats outlaw

#

oopsies

#

forget im not on sin rn

topaz bluff
#

The truth comes out

teal bloom
#

outlaw exsangery

vapid sierra
#

i love outlaw for keys

#

sin for raid

#

i cant give up one or the other

#

gearing both aint hard either

#

just gotta horde gear

stray mural
#

i took the build from the simulations page

topaz bluff
#

I can't do outlaw personally. I'll either assassination for keys or sub if we're being a little more serious on the push at least until assassination gets a few tweaks.

stray mural
#

i dont know how its possible to play outlaw badly in keys but i manage to do it every time i touch the spec

#

press bf and hit the st keys

#

thats it

vapid sierra

probably just prio/proc reaction

#

thats all outlaw is

you can just st the big guy on platform anyways its w hatever

oak sky

yeah ik

#

unless we end up needing more aoe

#

then i just go outlaw probably

drifting cloud
#

fight is just about exectuion, you get past 4th platform with like 18 alive

#

hard to wipe from there unless your dmg is real dookie

oak sky

theres no 5th add right

or do the thingys respawn

drifting cloud

there is but you just burn boss

oak sky

why do people hate dathea

i gotta know

drifting cloud

shes pretty hard

#

you duplicate marks its a wipe real fast

oak sky
#

duplicating is a heroic mechanic though

drifting cloud
#

yes but on heroic they expire

#

on mythic they dont

#

so you have to dunk them for raid dmg to get rid of them

#

and you can have multiple of them so not like you can afk with it whole fight

oak sky

ye

dunk

If you get hit with PI and have windfury, you're going to be hard pressed to spend all your energy, right?

grim jay
#

Windfury totem effect only affects auto attacks

#

And you never wanna cap energy anyways

subtle tundra
#

Pi is in deathmark where you're capped anyways

#

So those two things don't change anything

vestal wren
#

so neither is wrong, profiels are just a bit diffrent

#

that's also why they have slightly different output
(also, you should sim for your gear to find out whats stronger)

grim jay
#

@vestal wren you switched up the ring sources on accident at sin

#

If I didnt read wrong

winter gale
#

Is there a macro for Vanish only when in combat?

Like a command or something

vestal wren

And how stupid is that ? 😄

vestal wren

but moment

winter gale
vestal wren
#

[nocombat]

#

you can, if you want

#

/cast [combat] Vanish; Stealth

winter gale
#

Ty for multitasking!

vestal wren
#

it will cast vaish in combat and stealth else

#

but you need to be aware when you are in combat to not waste vanish

winter gale
#

I want to make Vanish and Shroud not interfere due to them being on same bind

winter gale
#

So Vanish combat and Shroud out of Combat*

vestal wren
#

you will need to wait for the sim to finish

#

but 2 target ring comparison

winter gale
#

Same bind but Shroud is on 'Stealth' bar

vestal wren
winter gale
#

Due to me being spammer I sometimes cast Shroud right after Vanish but thats something that wont be easily fixed as shroud is out of combat and vanish puts me out of combat for a second I guess 😄

vestal wren
#

vanish does not put you in combat

#

and shroud can be used in combat

vestal wren
winter gale
#

No no, I had a command that uses vanish in combat and shroud can be casted only out of combat but when I, during the fight, use vanish i get out of combat for a second and I am then able to use Shroud. Just imagine the faces of ppl when I shroud on some pack in a dung 😄

#

And bar is filled, dunno what I dont need, Poisoned Knife maybe? 😄

earnest imp
#

After all these class changes, rogues have fallen down in DPS meters in our guild pretty roughly, you guys have the same experience?

#

Even on Terros we are not topping anymore

grim jay
#

No

#

But depends on fightlength aswell

earnest imp
#

Think Terros the execution time has an impact in reclears

vestal wren
#

assassination has a rly strong execute

earnest imp
#

On progress I'm still oneyish, but we are on kurog right now and I'm not excelling in that fight

#

Okeyish#

vestal wren
#

wait thats wrong

#

moment

subtle tundra
#

Kurog is not a good assa fight

rigid tartan
#

Meaning you ease the tight parts of adds and one of the highest boss dps

#

Whereas with outlaw you do decent dmg to all of the adds and also boss but bossdps is lower

grim jay
rigid tartan
#

However I noticed that we started to kill frozen destroyer add so quick I don’t get full deathmark value on it

earnest imp
#

I'm also wondering as our other Assa rogue plays 1pt in execute (the "bleed build") and I play 2 pts, how much higher should he be before execute phase

rigid tartan
#

So I dropped on that add and for reclears you put 4th deathmark on boss with a little delay

earnest imp
#

He's doing quite a bit more on bosses and then usually on execute I go past him or at least get closer

sleek shale
#

!gems

vestal wren
#

e.g. kingsbane has the bigger execute

#

!neck

prisma monolithBOT
vestal wren
#

so you do ~30% more damage during execute than before it

#

and then longer execute lasts then better ofc

winter gale
#

Is it normal that bleed and poison builds are the same for me?

#

410ilvl

earnest imp
#

Thanks Fuu

#

For progress I think this is far superior

#

@rigid tartan how do you handle the Kurogg right with adds, keep bleeds on add and sit on Kurog and swap when needed?

#

ofc it rly comes down to what talent combi you play
