Enhance was the same

gusty mirage
#

sub is fine

marble hemlock
#

this scene

#

only for DF pve

dark token
#

Boomie was better

gusty mirage
raw raft
#

Performing as intended starege

vestal wren
#

copium but s3 and s4 don't count

dark token
#

I've never seen as unbalanced specs as destro and surv in s3/4

#

But they did nothing

vestal wren
#

i actually think it is mostly a lack of data

gusty mirage
#

they buffed destro 2 weeks into season 3

#

by 10%

thorny pond
raw raft
#

Don’t worry guys we are top dps in all the cringe dungeons no one likes to play starege

vestal wren
#

i don't think balance is easy to assume, so the buffs/nerfs are usually just reactive on either wcl or a similar statistic

thorny pond
#

Better drink my own piss and nerf sin

vestal wren
#

or based on meta/power level estimates from streamers/influencers

gusty mirage
#

meanwhile I'm looking at sub rogue teetering off in season 3

#

like mmkay

#

eons are still being used 3 months into the tier

#

this isn't problematic for anyone at blizzard ig

vestal wren
#

i mean

thorn fjord
#

I played sub in keys all of S2

vestal wren
#

lets be fair

marble hemlock
gusty mirage
#

assassination had like a 17% tier set

vestal wren
#

subtlery would have ended as the least played spec at the start of the tier

gusty mirage
#

and still did mediocre damage

dark token
#

S2 it was actually the best key spec tho

gusty mirage
marble hemlock
#

we wouldve used EoN in DF still kekdog

raw raft
#

Never forget when blizzard was bullied by the internet to take back the destro and dk nerfs in s3 starege

vestal wren
#

if eon did not exist

gusty mirage
#

if eon didn't exist, sub would've been dead like it was in bfa

#

I honest to god believe that

#

and I was so hype for sub coming back in SL

vestal wren
#

probably not wrong

gusty mirage
#

and then I played it the first month

#

and I was like bro

#

what

vestal wren
#

haha

thorny pond
vestal wren
#

i think a lot of ppl did get a reality check first 2 weeks

#

when subtlety did

gusty mirage
vestal wren
#

surprisingly perform as shit as in sims

gusty mirage
#

because it surely wasn't for damage

#

because outlaw didn't do damage either

thorny pond
vestal wren
#

outalw did aoe

#

keep in mind

#

subtlety bp did hit like week noodle in s1

thorn fjord
#

Yeah we forget it needed the buff towards the end of s2

vestal wren
#

they did buff it in s2

gusty mirage
#

you just brought a boomkin to compensate

#

for rogue damage

thorny pond
dark token
#

Actually so fun rotation

dark moth
#

@gusty mirage should I press puzzle pox after death mark?

gusty mirage
vestal wren
#

DF did at least bring sub up on par

gusty mirage
#

you still owe me a +20 jet

#

I didn't forget

vestal wren
#

i think the main problem in DF so far is that specs being bad often means they are rly bad

dark token
#

All 3 specs have a fun rotation rn except sin which has exang dogshit opener

vestal wren
#

like assassination in sustained aoe

dark token
#

Which is why I went sub

raw raft
#

You know guys they gotta buff warlock because all the warlock mains won’t play it if they don’t Kapp

vestal wren
#

i think exsang hate is a bit overshooting now

#

i mean, i have my reasons to not like the spell

#

but the 3 minute cooldown makes it far less of a problem

thorn fjord
#

Yeah its kind of a minor nuisance at this point

thorny pond
#

3min CD that has low impact though. 45 was too short but 3min is just clunky

sour hinge
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
thorn fjord
#

Should have just made it a minute

vestal wren
#

i do like it on a long cooldown

#

image

#

if it was a 5 minute cooldown

#

but twice the impact

signal badger
#

Make it a two min to line up with dm and maybe nerf it a bit since it’s lining up

thorn fjord
#

5m it increases dmg but doesnt reduce the time of the actual dot

raw raft
#

Exsang on a 2 min maybe peepoBlush

thorn fjord
#

that would be kinda cool

raw raft
#

HUH

thorny pond
#

Just make it all bleed damage within last x seconds is replicated at the target over y seconds

#

Makes it good for AoE

#

And an ST gain

candid slate
#

Sup everyone
I have a question
If I'm wearing grieftorch and puzzle box, fight is going to be around 3 minutes, so I can use box only once per fight
And we have a lot of people dying, especially in the start, so I can reset my grieftorch pretty often
Should I hold the box for exectute phase on deathmark + kb, since I feel like it's gonna do more dam
Or should I use it from start with exsang?

Sim does it from start, but it does not include people resetting grieftorch ofc
And also sim does box after exsang and kb, which is wrong(?)

thorny pond
#

Box before CDs

#

Why are so many people just eating shit so early?

ebon notch
#

yeah i was about to ask

#

if its early prog i wouldnt play around grieftorch being reset a lot

#

that will smoothen out over time

#

just follow the rules for puzzlebox

#

!puzzle

prisma monolithBOT
#

Algeth'ar Puzzle Box usage:
When playing Exsanguinate, use Puzzle Box just before pressing Exsanguinate. Otherwise always sync Puzzle Box with Deathmark.
Holding Puzzle Box and Exsanguinate for a minute to sync with the 4 minute Deathmark is generally beneficial. Using Puzzle Box on cooldown can be beneficial with very specific fight lengths.

shut owl
#

seeing parses with 4-5 grieftorch casts in a 2-3 min fight makes me sad inside

dark token
#

Where I hate it is the opener

#

Thus, CD on it doesn't matter

shut owl
#

honestly kinda wish it was back on the shorter cd but just less aggressive timing fuckery

thorn fjord
shut owl
#

having it as a free "get my dot value on this target" in dungeons felt really nice when I was leveling

winter vapor
#

is there an easy way to sim different talent builds using top gear or do i have to manually enter them to compare

shut owl
#

you can use the simc string in whispyrs spreadsheet to sim all of his at once

#

just copy-paste it to the end of your simc input

winter vapor
#

ah ty

#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
cerulean nest
#

howre those whelp shell sims coming

slim hamlet
#

From what I understand I doubt it will be done this week

candid slate
#

So it's kinda worth it playing around grieftorch

thorny pond
#

Ah paid actors

candid slate
#

When it does like 15-20% of your dps

thorny pond
#

Think the play is probably just bleeds torch and ride out a mini rotation to box that DM

#

long as your DM is before 40sec

#

you get two still

desert orchid
#

All these trinket talks and I just wish I could get any to drop at this point, sigh.

candid slate
#

Cause I was doing torch in opener, so I get like 2-3-4 bonus torches
And then just hold the box till execute phase with dm kb
Especially if the fight is like 2:20-30

thorny pond
#

Yea but you probably lose that last torch

#

napkin mathing you'd trade last torch for that held box

candid slate
candid slate
thorny pond
#

If you can drag some followers around for optimal die time

#

then yea, lob some torches

#

"carry 3, jump off now. a heroic trinket is doing more DPS than you"

candid slate
thorny pond
#

That's echo

#

with 60% raid coverage

#

so yea that's believable

dusty yacht
#

any suggesion on what should I craft with the 4th spark?
I have cowl, lariat and one dagger
as ring I have diurna's and cos so I don't think it's worth to craft a finger

desert orchid
thorny pond
#

Off-spec sword if you law, bracers/cloak/boots/belt lowest ilvl

candid slate
vapid sierra
#

just got puzzlebox on my second run

candid slate
#

because switching your vault to outlaw is just missing a chance to get 421 dagger

vapid sierra
#

pulled 53.1k on my first run as sin, kinda doodoo

dusty yacht
#

I don't do outlaw and I have kurog fist in case, but I'll see between off-set pieces thanks

#

are the engi bracers worth? even if they give one stat

thorny pond
#

You can run a droptimizer for crafteds

#

that's honestly what I'd do

dusty yacht
#

oh right, I forgot

#

thanks

subtle tundra
#

wtf is sub why does it do so much dps

thorny pond
#

yea but sub has short arms

#

so

#

point sin

subtle tundra
#

why do i do more dmg on sub than on assa in m+?????????????????????????? when i cant even fucking play it properly

#

no way this is balanced

soft glen
#

Off hand, does anyone know the caps for Assassination?

oak sky
#

Bp sectech bp bp bp bp rupture rupture rupture rupture

subtle tundra
#

its just the shadow dance

#

that you have to do correctly

#

which is a dance now

#

i like

gusty mirage
vapid sierra
#

because sub has the best aoe out of the three

oak sky
#

Literally dance is just sectech 2nd finisher no?

#

Do you try to enter with cp or anything even

strange python
subtle tundra
#

idk???????????

soft glen
#

Thank you Oxi

subtle tundra
#

I LITERALLY DONT KNOW

gusty mirage
strange python
#

Oxi has abandoned the 32% crit club

subtle tundra
#

i did my 2nd key as sub and did more than i ever did on assa in the dungeon

#

on a good assa dungeon

oak sky
#

Prolly like enter with 7 then dance bp storm sectech then spam bp

#

If i had to guess

strange python
#

Meanwhile I have 42% crit and just started simming above 80k

vestal wren
subtle tundra
#

fuck

#

he got me

#

i will improve with ic dtb

strange python
#

Huh

vapid sierra
#

im running sim now that i got puzzle box

subtle tundra
#

surely this change means assa will do better now

oak sky
#

They got me playing sub in s3 and i lost brain cells

vapid sierra
#

the issue with sin is that its intricate and doesnt ahve any indepth aoe guides

#

outlaw plently of guides and all you do is hit blade flurry

vestal wren
#

claw build for max dps

oak sky
#

Spam black powder was so crazy easy

vapid sierra
#

?

candid slate
#

Zerocool is mainly playing assa and does stream really often

#

You can check him out for M+

oak sky
#

💀

subtle tundra
#

yea why doesnt whispyr tell you every gcd of the dungeon

oak sky
#

Yeah varas learn from zerocool

#

Get it done

vestal wren
subtle tundra
#

im tired

#

dont joke

oak sky
#

Pick yourself up by your bootstraps

subtle tundra
#

and im mad

#

cause sub does this dps

#

while assa peepee

oak sky
#

Is it just always dark brew

strange python
#

Zerocool > varas at sin keys.

strange python
vestal wren
#

assassination just needs a filler

8 targets

vapid sierra
#

where can i find a good aoe guide?

oak sky
#

Faq or wowhead

vestal wren
#

bp for sub on 8

vapid sierra
#

could someone sim my droptimizer? i dont have raidbots premium

oak sky
#

Shouldnt we be simming the m+ build as opposed to a full aoe build because its more practical

vapid sierra
#

it says this on the wowhead guide

#

for sin

#

sin doesnt get crimson vial

subtle tundra
vapid sierra
#

unless im tripping

subtle tundra
#

wat

teal bloom
#

we have crimson vial

vapid sierra
#

where?

oak sky
#

Its default buddy

#

You just have it

vapid sierra
#

ah in the rogue tree

#

im stupid

random fossil
oak sky
#

Not in any tree

#

You just have the spell

vapid sierra
#

dude im stupid

oak sky
#

Nimble fingers just looks like crimson vial

vapid sierra
#

so do you guys play dtb or ic+kb for m+? im on the wowhead and ic+kb is only recommended on academy even tho it sims higher

trail tree
#

i prefer dtb but i play ic+kb on most dungeons for fort week

oak sky
#

Ic kb

indigo epoch
#

I like ic/kb better but only run 15's

The following is a general recommendation, but you will always get more accurate results through simming your gear through Top Gear.
Crit >= Mastery > Haste > Versatility
Note: In high mythic+ keys, you may want more Versatility to survive. While you may see this on high end players gear, this is generally worse DPS. For pure DPS, Versatility is mostly avoided.

woven frost
limpid ermine
#

Mass iron wire on pulls is nice with IC, but just what you are most comfortable with

lusty surge
#

I've really liked ic kb in keys, utility is very nice in most dungeons

#

That said I did a 20 NO last night where I just wished I was playing dtb or OL

#

Feels like way too many non silenceable mobs

#

Though vanish IC is clutch on the last boss

subtle tundra
#

wat

#

dtb?

#

no is the 2nd best ic dungeon

#

its extremely good

lusty surge
#

Hmm

#

Maybe I just misused it

#

I've felt like I get more value out of IC in vaults, academy, rlp

oak sky
#

Academy yeah

lusty surge
#

It's also possible it was just a comp issue and ic would've felt better

subtle tundra
#

if you mean the silence

#

you can just...

#

not get the silence

oak sky
#

5+ mobs ic is much much better for damage though

subtle tundra
#

but ic is the prime aoe

#

we have

#

its really strong on big pulls

#

which NO is full of

lusty surge
#

Yea true

#

I didn't have any issues with the damage

#

I just felt like I was not contributing and why bring sin lol

subtle tundra
#

also iron wire isnt only silence

#

its DR

lusty surge
#

I know that's contradictory

subtle tundra
#

aswell

lusty surge
#

Yea

shut owl
#

the DR is big

lusty surge
#

Our demo lock was still just getting 2 stacks of bleed and getting gibbed

subtle tundra
lusty surge
#

On trash around 1st boss

#

Right

#

When I am rogue with divine toll in some of those other dungeons

#

I feel more justified lol

subtle tundra
#

tbh i felt bad in these keys with sub

#

lol

#

no silences

#

shit prio without sacrificing

shut owl
#

it does damage. thats what it does

subtle tundra
#

sure fking does

shut owl
#

I sure don't understand it but its a thing. I still cant figure out why my damage is like 20% sectec

#

and some other sub rogue its like 5%

#

but we're the same damage

oak sky
#

Probably gear or other rotational things

#

Maybe you guys are both doing something wrong but theyre different things

shut owl
#

hopefully the latter

marble hemlock
#

azure vault EZ

shut owl
#

sexy

vestal wren
#

nice

shut owl
#

are we supposed to be double-tapping garrote in our vanish windows on st?

lusty surge
#

Wp, what keylevel

ebon notch

#

Nice

#

I hate azure vault

It's so long

Very nice

ebon notch
#

I haven't tried the frog skip route yet

scarlet sable
#

Damn

#

Sin rogues blasting in the azure vault 24

shut owl
#

been trying to parse through logs and I see a lot of vanish-garrote-garrote, and I don't know if the extra garrote is worth outside of some exsang angle maybe?

scarlet sable
#

how do I get like you

ebon notch
#

Play gooder

#

That's it

desert orchid
thorn fjord
#

Ive seen alot of Vanish Gar gar Rupture to DM also

#

Ive just been doing that

shut owl
#

only by 30%cuz pandemic, so I dunno if thats worth the cast in most cases... and if its in your opener you should be at pretty close to max cuz garrote pandemic dm window lines up like that right?

thorn fjord
#

Im not seeing it in opener... Seeing it during the fight

shut owl
#

like. if you just run up and doubletap garrote you get a 23 second garrote

desert orchid
#

Yea, not during the opener

#

But mid fight vanish I could see why

thorn fjord
#

and i think you would do the double gar after vanish if ER is still on CD

formal cliff
shut owl
#

yeah, like... I feel like theres probably a case to be made for your 2nd exsang window or something... but is the extra 6 seconds worth at your 2m mark?

lament warren
#

we could do the math

thorn fjord
#

Feels easier just doing it that way to get the bleeds up and DM out

#

Faster and less thought

shut owl
#

cuz 6 seconds of extra garrote is gonna be what... (198% x 1.5 /18) (6?

thorn fjord
#

I cant math

#

so you lost me

lament warren
#

it’s mostly the fact that it gives you more exsang ticks

#

on dm builds without exsang you just refresh the bleed in deathmark

shut owl
#

yeah, but your 2m isn't gonna be exsanged

thorn fjord
#

Seeing the double garrote being used w/o exsang also

#

yeah we're talking 2m DM

shut owl
#

I'm not talking about double garrote from opener

#

I'm talking about seeing it on every vanish

lament warren
#

we’re not disagreeing

shut owl
#

and seeing it in 8/9 logs that I've looked at this week... to include mine, and I'm wondering if its just a bad habit to curb

lament warren
#

it is probably fine

thorn fjord
#

Could be the dmg from the gar is better than just mutilating so you build the cp with both gar to get the rupture up

lament warren
#

ya

#

it’s equivalent cp to garrote from vanish

#

you only get two

#

putting it into pandemic is fine

shut owl
#

anyways... 297%/18s is an imp garrote's dps yeah?

lament warren
#

but i think if it pandemics on your first cast you might just want to slam an ambush

#

more or less

#

not accounting for 4pc

shut owl
#

not getting into the weeds of the .405

lament warren
#

and lethal dose

shut owl
#

yeah, I'm just gonna look at raw to start

#

and see if theres a discernable difference before I start looking for edge case

#

cuz if the diff is nothing then I don't need to bother

thorn fjord
#

@shut owl how far are you guys in to prog?

shut owl
#

H raz

thorn fjord
#

Ah

shut owl
#

this is an AOTC casual guild

thorn fjord
#

Gotcha

shut owl
#

I finally got 4p after crafting cowl, so now I dont have cowl again lol

#

damn near had to break an evoker's legs

#

cuz this man took 5 pieces of tier from me

#

in 2 weeks

thorn fjord
#

My heroic parses are pretty good but my Mythic ones are pretty bad currently

#

RIP

shut owl
#

after joining... two weeks ago

thorn fjord
#

Evoker took all of tier week 1 and one day of week 2

shut owl
#

and being bottom of the chart

thorn fjord
#

Then the GM took some too but i got lucky and got some in vault

shut owl
#

we've had almost all tier go to evokers

thorn fjord
#

they fed me Tuesday

#

and Sunday

shut owl
#

I rolled a 100 vs 5 evokers for pants last week

thorn fjord
#

Jesus

shut owl
#

and finally got shoulders off diurna this week

lament warren
#

yolked

thorn fjord
#

How many of those are healers?

shut owl
#

we have an average of 2 evokers during prog, but 7-8 in our loot pool farm night somehow

thorn fjord
#

Thats annoying

shut owl
#

yes

#

VERY

spice spire
#

I said the best 3 evokers make it

shut owl
#

looking at new guilds to actually do prog with atm

thorn fjord
#

we have 2 warriors 2 Evokers Me and 2 Monks

spice spire
#

We went from 8/3

shut owl
#

1 war, 1 rogue (me), 2 monks, and some floating number between 2 and 10 evokers

thorn fjord
#

Luckily the only people who had higher prio was 1 war and 1 evoker.. i was third in the list lol

spice spire
#

3 war, 3 rogues (for now)3 evokers, 0 monke despairge

thorn fjord
#

Evoker is a big dick dpser who's like top 20 and the warrior is the GM lol

thorn fjord
spice spire
#

Me and two outlaws

shut owl
#

back to mathing... 6 seconds of imp garrote is worth... almost 100% attack power

spice spire
thorn fjord
#

EZ have them paper rock scissors

#

What server you on @shut owl

lament warren
shut owl
#

IM ON YOURS

thorn fjord
#

Also can i just call you Jackie? lol if not then nm

spice spire
#

Literally hyjal

#

Brother

thorn fjord
shut owl
#

we are friends!

spice spire
#

There’s like 80 hyjal rogues here

thorn fjord
#

How do i not keep track of this

spice spire
#

Dieslow and I are friends too

#

And I’ve never ran a key with him (my own fault) smoge

shut owl
#

same

thorn fjord
#

My fault too tbh

lament warren
#

@weary dome ur my friend right

#

surely..

shut owl
#

anyways.

lament warren
thorn fjord
#

I think Leviathan might be recruiting... @fair current mentioned that they had fallen apart but are in the process of rebuilding

shut owl
#

6 seconds of imp garrote is definitely worth more than a mutilate

lament warren
#

ya

shut owl
#

probably less than an ambush but meh

#

worth less than a SbS for sure

thorn fjord
#

I think we'd rather cast Gar over Ambush tho

shut owl
#

and potentionally less than an envenom depending on your CP

marble pebble
#

question, how big is the difference between assassination and outlaw in the current meta? Just hit 70 and wondering how all the different rogue specs compete with one another

shut owl
#

if you've got 4p, then the imp gar is probably worth more than the envenom, but not more than the sbs

#

I can sleep at night now. ty for coming to my ted talk

thorn fjord
#

So are you going to Van gar gar rup now? 😛

shut owl
#

as a habit? probably if I'm in the zone

#

since I've got 4p now

#

well

#

not on the pull

thorn fjord
#

i was over thinking in turn tanking my dmg by trying to hold off for ER then ER vanish Gar rup Gar in to DM

shut owl
#

I dunno anything about that gar gar rup

thorn fjord
#

but that was fucking things up

#

So im erasing that whole interaction from my brain

shut owl
#

mash blue button when it lights up. thats my ER thonks

#

blue sword ready? hit it

#

blue bubble active? spend it

thorn fjord
#

Yeah i need to start just doing that too

#

My Terros log was AWFUL

shut owl
#

definitely an optimization to not lose CP on it, but even completely losing my mind on it and overcapping every single time still seemed better than holding and missing one or some dumbness

thorn fjord
#

i find my self playing better when im not constantly thinking of optimization and when i just flow with the vibe.. smashing buttons on cd lol

#

overcapping wasnt my issue it was trying to gain as much value so i would continue holding... which fucked my dmg lol

shut owl
#

oh, wait. I'm a derp. I can just get my 4p hands from inspiration catalyst. cool.

lusty surge
#

Doesn't garrote do an instant tick when you cast it too

#

Or are you accounting for that

thorn fjord
#

in two weeks tho

shut owl
#

yeah yeah. but I have no means of getting 4p this week unless I suddenly do mythic tier bosses out of the blue

#

so thats a problem for next week/2 week from now jackie

thorn fjord
#

if you guys are up to H Raz you should be able to down council and E on M

versed canopy
#

ive having to slow down button mashing since i came from outlaw

spice spire
shut owl
#

specifically the extra 6 seconds of garrote should be falling outside of dm

thorn fjord

#

Prog boss buddy

#

Kill is a kill is a kill

thorn fjord
#

Our DH got a 99 😦

spice spire
#

Later on? Yeah green bad

thorn fjord
#

Er DK*

#

yeah next week we getting them grape parses

shut owl
#

yeah... definitely reviewed a few logs and was like... "your damage is fine, your boss time was dogshit for your cd's and half the raid was dead, what do you expect"

#

I finally got my first purple heroic this week lol

#

go me. I can play council finally

spice spire
#

Council is pretty easy

thorn fjord
#

Minus 1-2 bosses im 90+ on heroic

shut owl
#

100k without 4p XD

#

next target is 120k

spice spire
#

Our diurna kill was painful.
4 people alive on kill.
Hate swapping tanks man

thorn fjord
#

Just 3 tank forehead

spice spire
#

Debated it

#

Our third outlaw is a tank swap

thorn fjord
#

Yeah we did too lol

#

Our Balance is ours

spice spire
#

Came from tank to rogue

#

Society man

shut owl
#

my wife was like "why am I not parsing well on diurna, all the other monks are doubling my dps"... and I'm like... "well... they did 1m damage to the boss, and you did 12m damage to the boss, so that should say a lot about how we do that fight"

thorn fjord
shut owl
#

we won't get diurna without vantus runes anytime soon, so we won't get raz for a hot minute lol

spice spire
#

I was also adds on our first diurna kill. Btw sin not great for it

shut owl
#

yeah nah

egg-tending actually hilariously great for sin from a raid-lead perspective... very little/no damage loss on boss

#

just eternal suffering

#

as your main dps loss is the energy funneling into feint/vial because your healer hates you

spice spire

Diurna is fine, people just aped out

one of the rougher pulls was a solid 20 feints/10 vials lol

dude remember when the spiteful had elastigirl arms

spice spire
cloud moat
#

Alternatively, spam Stealth after the mobs die and pray to god you enter it before the Spiteful cunts pull you into combat, so you may actually be able to do something as Assa this week

#

Or bribe the tank into patiently waiting in-between each pull until each ghostboi is finally dead OMEGAKEKW

normal olive
#

man idk how you guys do keys but my tanks 99% of the time already stand in the next pack before the current pack dies

cloud moat
#

Sub somehow feels so much more fluid too. Got facefucked by the spitefuls spawning next to me as Sin multiple times per dungeon, but as Sub haven't died once. That's probably just skill issue though

Does spiteful prio ranged btw?

Because I feel like I almost never get a spiteful

I just did a RLP+15 where we wiped 4 times at the last boss because the tank somehow kept losing aggro and the boss meleed us to death starege the things I do for weekly vault

slim hamlet
#

u mean lil guy?

#

He randomly sucks melees off

#

even with tank aggro

teal bloom
#

I got killed by both the dragon and guy in different pulls

cloud moat
#

Haven't seen that happening before

teal bloom
#

My strategy in getting into M+ groups is to find someone with the lowest mythic+ score

cloud moat
#

Could it have something to do with tank running out of range during https://www.wowhead.com/spell=381512/stormslam

#

So the boss slams the highest threat target in range instead

slim hamlet
#

Yea that is a thing

#

also when he jumps off drkae

#

he insta slams closest target

smh

magic vine
#

theres a couple optimizations available because of it, but its mostly just "there"

thorn fjord
#

Yeah but the idea of casting different shit each time for more gains hurts my mind

magic vine
#

nah just do evis as finisher 1 and sec tec as finisher 2, and the builders is just normal priority "don't overcap cp" stuff

thorn fjord
#

hmm

#

In that case maybe i was over thinking it

magic vine
#

yea its easy to look at and think its something you need to worry about maximizing, when in reality its not something you need to think about really

oak sky
#

its kinda cool

thorn fjord
#

That changes things then

#

I'll try sub again in keys and see how that goes

oak sky
#

it makes you want to use different finishers and use your strongest finisher last

#

and then you get to spam strong filler

thorn fjord
#

which would be sec tech with cb right?

oak sky
#

yeah

#

so you want to black powder first

#

or evisc

magic vine
#

its sort of like how you don't try to play around the envenom buff really

oak sky
#

then sectech 2nd finisher

magic vine
#

you want it up with kb, but you don't try to do super precise things with it

shut owl
#

I feel like half of playing sub atm is just making good macros kek

oak sky
cloud moat
magic vine
#

yup

#

like the stacks are strong, but most of the time the normal priority things you already do as a rogue are still more important than another stack

thorn fjord
#

This all makes alot of sense

#

And tornado would be cast before dance now right?

magic vine
#

ie build as many cp as possible in the lowest number of gcd without overcapping, follow your normal spend rules

#

yea if you're playing tornado you cast before dance because it doesn't trigger dm stacks.

storm forum
#

anyone know what's good dps for each dungeon? I did like 75k in an NO, but like 45k in the CoS right after.

thorn fjord
#

tbh i miss just hitting flag -> tornado lol

magic vine
#

all depends on how the tank is pulling, along with how much the other guys are doing sometimes

cloud moat
#

The stack isn't worth it? Just Powder into sectec with tornado active?

magic vine
#

honestly i just uh, don't play tornado. its better if you need the specific burst for like an add phase, but over the course of like a m+ its a minor loss to not take it

thorn fjord
#

Just so used to it

slim hamlet
#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
cloud moat
#

While you're here giving advice, is dance>SS>strike>evis>gloom>strike>sectec>vanish>strike anywhere near optimal for single target in M+

#

Been doing that one because it feels right

thorn fjord
#

Damn subbers hijacked the sin channel

#

Partly my fault tho lol

magic vine
#

well, after the first evis you should strike

#

then if you land on 4cp you can gloom

#

ngl i thought you were talking about the CoS trinket when y'all said tornado

been sitting on it because spending all my valor would be a really minor upgrade

vapid sierra

is it typically a gain to drop cttc?

iron charm
#

how high does keys need to be for assas to be good in keys ?

shut owl
#

honestly probably depends more on if you are overgeared for the key than anything. sin felt fine to me in any keys where I wasn't running with ilvl 400+ in a sub-10

magic vine
#

its still good in low level keys because stuff like iron wire will be up for larger amounts of the fight, but your damage numbers might not be as high as you'd like

shut owl

very dependent on the rest of the group in lower keys

so i always hold second puzzle for my 4th min dm?

after using it for opener

yeh

puzzle + exsang for 4min dm

fuck exsang i dont play with that shit

just don't play with either

so always hold trink for second dm, got it

Outlaw and sub can use a slow wep if it's like 50 ilvl higher

just use artefact skin
