go with whatever's cheaper, cuz you'll eventually remove it

strange python
#

Yeah I tried simming them all together but couldn’t really figure it out. I suppose I could do it just one at a time

gusty mirage
#

I think r3 fangs are cheap af rn too

strange python
#

ya on us-thrall they were like 6k ish

#

dirt cheap

dreamy gull
#

did i do this right
(ik this is low stakes im just trying to make sure my rotation is more or less correct)

gusty mirage
#

it's just 8% for both

#

so each is roughly 4%

#

2pc affect is 4ish% and 4pc is a bit stronger

strange python

#

if you save each tree loadout in game, when you import into raidbots you can just select each tree at the bottom and then run it

dreamy gull
#

would u ever use cheap shot in dungeons btw

#

or is it just a pvp thing mostly

strange python
#

eh you have to use vanish for it

magic vine
#

theres some edge case stuff technically where some mobs can be stunned out of a cast but not interrupted, but sin uses vanish for big damage so the chances of your stealth lining up with that are really small

strange python
#

yeah

#

i just have a macro with kick n kidney shot for stuff

royal lantern
#

imagine moving as a rogue

#

and not just shadowstep

strange python
#

and torrent too

gusty mirage
#

super helpful as the boss is going UP stairs

#

to the LEFT

royal lantern
#

shadowstep the mage

gusty mirage
#

unlucky they're arcane and in melee range

#

what now

magic vine
#

figure out the most responsible member of your raid, and make an extra shadowstep button targeting them

gusty mirage
#

I trust none of them

royal lantern
# gusty mirage what now

shadowstep the healer priest, cus for some reason they have the lowest mobility ingame but still managed to do movment mechanics, meanwhile your mages have no blink charges and die

#

🙂

ebon notch
#

you fought dathea yet?

gusty mirage
ebon notch
#

yes

#

it was very erotic

gusty mirage
#

who won

ebon notch
#

we both did

viscid spear
gusty mirage
#

also trusting a mage

#

is never a good idea

ebon notch
#

true

"ye sry had to 360 no scope blink alter time ice block jump off the platform then get gripped back on mb"

gusty mirage
#

evoker may have gotten the DH rotation for ranged, but mages got DH brain for ranged

that gives them SOME awarness

How are you guys doing Dathea? Just full ST or CT+FoK for the adds on the platforms?

royal lantern
#

heroic or mythic?

turbid heath
#

guys

#

4 set - but only way of getting it is from the helm slot - do I drop cowl for 4 set?

gusty mirage
#

yes

#

without a doubt

spice spire
#

4% > 1.2% monkaScheme

turbid heath
#

rogeridoodily

shut owl
slow marsh
#

so i'm assuming i should wait until i get tier before i get a cowl crafted then

turbid heath
#

tytytyty

gusty mirage
#

less problematic with catalyst coming out next week

#

but yeah

shut owl
#

you might as well craft cowl since you can make tier next week?

gusty mirage
#

friendly reminder that you can't catalyze crafted gear

#

gl hf out there

shut owl
#

I meant you make cowl, catalyze whatever m+ gear for the other tier slots

#

thats where I'm at anyways

strange python
#

for our heroic dathea kill we only had 1 dk so i had to scuff it up and go iron wire to silence all the little fucks lMFAO

#

peak goonery going on in that kill

cursive frost

Toxic

royal lantern
#

why are you up there

#

as assa

#

like, you should not even do platforms

gusty mirage
#

you think we're raiding with bdgg or liquid bro?

#

lmao

royal lantern
#

dathea platforms as assa kekdog

#

just gaslight your RL to stay on boss

#

ez

spice spire
#

Brother I had to do diurna adds week one

pseudo hamlet
gusty mirage
#

but no I wouldn't play CT

#

once other dps figure their shit out

#

its not worth

pseudo hamlet
#

Understandable

gusty mirage
#

early prog I can see it working out

#

just to see more of the fight

keen spruce
#

I started rebelling like 3 weeks ago and just quit going to the platforms regardless of group assignment

strange python
#

sometiems groups just need to adjust and u get cucked

#

wcyd

keen spruce
#

dps went up by like 9k

strange python
#

prog > logs

#

the real cuck mentality 4HEad

keen spruce
#

what do you mean no other way

#

u got 25 boomkins not running beam?

strange python
#

idr what the discussion around our boomy was

#

they just decided to cuck me

#

was very sad

keen spruce
#

we don't even send out only UH dk up

#

just melee kicks and kill everything

strange python
#

i think its cuz some of our dps dont like kicking

#

so we use scuffed ways to group em together 4HEad

keen spruce
strange python
#

at one point we had shammies tornadoing some in to stack

#

LMFAo

velvet haven
#

doing platforms with dathea

#

u just need to be with the dk

#

and fish for PB

#

but yea on farm u shouldn't be up top at least

strange python
#

SHRUGGERS i do what my rl says

#

and then grumble when they say my dps is low

velvet haven
#

tell him the rogue discord says fix it or we fix it ourselves

jaunty gulch
#

so im in a weird spot where I have the Heroiv fire proc ring but no way to proc fire damage

gusty mirage
royal lantern
#

or 90%

#

or even 140%

jaunty gulch
#

I will get flaring cowl with next weeks spark

#

but the question I wanna ask is if I should be farming the whelping trinket

royal lantern
#

the "how much dmg does balance druid lose for running solar beam" numbers just gets higher each week

jaunty gulch
#

current gear (Trinkets are 408 boon/ 402 box)

gusty mirage
#

crazy

#

it was originally 15%

#

man what the dif 2 weeks makes

strange python
#

i thought they went from losing 420% dps to 690%

cursive frost
#

I told my boomkin he isn’t invited to keys without it lol

strange python
#

i remember now our boomy said he lost a fuck ton for taking solar beam and they made me talent into iron wire for it

#

LMAO

#

so i was stuck with a shit ass build

gusty mirage
#

I asked for a #

#

and they gave me "a shit ton"

#

I'm like oh okay

#

sounds good

strange python
#

force them to sim it

gusty mirage
#

no its fine

#

I told them they don't need to take beam

#

just like I don't need to kick

#

or take tricks

strange python
cursive frost
#

Feint is also a dps loss, take it off the bar

royal lantern
#

the words of our balance druid that skilled beam, to the balance druid that didnt skill it because ITS A 8% DPS LOST: "just do it, 8% of nothing is still nothing" prayge

gusty mirage
#

ripped aggro off the tank?

#

unlucky

spice spire
#

Amen

gusty mirage
#

better hope he has taunt

strange python
#

amen

gusty mirage
#

I had to drop tricks for nimble fingers so I can get 11 dps

#

by saving energy on vial & feint

lament warren
#

it is a ridiculous amount of dps for boomkin tbf

royal lantern
#

you lose a SHIT TON of dmg

lament warren
#

they’re fixing it in .0.5

dry dagger
#

Best spec for Rasz HC?

gusty mirage
#

kingsbane

#

until tuesday

lament warren
#

sub

gusty mirage
#

then not kingsbane

strange python
#

is hould really learn sub at some point

dry dagger
#

I should too

gusty mirage
#

yea usually a good idea to get comfy with 2 of the 3 specs

#

just in case they try repeating old mistakes

dry dagger
#

I'm comfy with Sin and Outlaw

gusty mirage
#

and deleting one because of a boss fight

#

then you're fine

dry dagger
#

You reckon Outlaw or Kingsbane on Rasz?

lament warren
#

kingsbane and sub

gusty mirage
#

whatever you enjoy the most tbh

lament warren
#

i know not relevant but we’ve talked abt it a bit recently

#

i think after nerfs just solidifies sub as the best spec for m

#

ig not nerfs

#

but kingsbane dtb was really fucking good

#

and atm p1 damage doesn’t matter nearly as much

#

you hold anyway

royal lantern
#

10pulls in terros

#

and i noticed

#

i didnt put atrophic on my weapons

#

:)))

gusty mirage
#

yeah?

#

5 pulls of kurog

#

I realized I was running deadly and not amp

royal lantern
#

wait

lament warren
#

in my friends guild 15 pulls of terros

royal lantern
#

i said atrohpic

#

i mean amp

marble hemlock
#

instead of amp

lament warren
#

i was wondering why i was going 2-3k below other rogue

marble hemlock
#

and played TTK instead of amp

lament warren
#

no amp

gusty mirage
marble hemlock
#

yeah we needed add dmg so

gusty mirage
#

I honest to god didn't see any parts of the fight change

marble hemlock
#

DP was better

#

think if youre fine on add dam

#

you just go amp

gusty mirage
#

our last add

#

was at like 40%

#

just by natural cleave

#

lol

marble hemlock
#

ye

gusty mirage
#

honestly all speccing CT did

#

was clean up the small adds a little faster

#

so now I ST tunnel the boss

#

and hope everyone else does their job

#

should die tonight though

primal hound
#

how much extra DR is shiv with atrophic?

strange python
#

are the adds in m kurog that much worse?

gusty mirage
gusty mirage
#

that interaction was removed

primal hound
#

oh okay thanks

green apex
#

I didnt see any mention of the sepsis changes in the pins (sorry if I missed it) - this looking potentially hot or doa?

gusty mirage
#

all sepsis gives you is an improved garrote, vs sbs which is a cheap builder & gives a lethal dose stack

#

so it's mostly a "meh" change

#

because sepsis is an awful ability

green apex
#

Word. Thanks!

storm forum
#

on spiteful fort weeks or when playing with a tank that likes to chain pull or any other circumstance you dont think you can get restealths, sepsis could be a consideration so you can get more iron wire spread with IC

magic eagle
#

I’ve been getting higher results in sims and irl using the top dtb build Puu has on his spreadsheet vs what is listed in the faq. Anyone else seeing that? It’s an exsang build.

#

Fuu^^

gusty mirage
#

think of the faq builds like "starter" builds

#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
gusty mirage
#

kingsbane + exsang w/ puzzle box is top dog rn

storm forum
#

the builds are very close and having different trinkets or stat spreads could affect them to be slightly better or worse for you

gusty mirage
#

if you don't have puzzle box, dtb bleed + exsang will be better

royal lantern
#

man

magic eagle
#

I do have puzzle box

royal lantern
#

going from #6 dps to #1 dps

#

cus i actually put amp poison on

#

hidden strat

storm forum
magic vine
#

2p with box made the dtb bleed build best for me on sin

gusty mirage
#

sim this talent string

magic eagle
#

But just curious as to why they are different. Perhaps just outdated. Will do.

gusty mirage
#

well the faq graphics and such are a little oldish

lament warren
#

i sandbag by not farming puzzle box to justify playing sub

magic vine
#

its just tons of slight gear differences can make different setups swing one way or the other

gusty mirage
#

and the most up to date builds, etc are usually in the spreadsheets

storm forum
#

thanks for reminding me to upgrade my puzzle box

gusty mirage
#

cause its easier to just slap them in a google doc than update the graphics, etc

magic vine
#

easier to just remind people to sim a small pile of builds than try to setup all the situations where one build is better/worse

#

also more accurate

slow marsh
#

i have to admit i enjoy the kb exsang opener way more than dtb

#

im sad to see it go

limber lion
#

Yep

#

Enjoy it while you still can

slow marsh
#

i am

#

hopefully they can bring it back somehow later

strange python
#

oh i also wanted to ask, since exsang snapshots, what haste buffs do we have to consider

#

pi/lust? anything else?

slow marsh
#

its mostly mastery stuff

#

not haste this go around

tall atlas
#

so cam o KB after DM

#

can i

slow marsh
#

ye

tall atlas
#

cool cool

#

thats fine

#

ruup and garrote cool after too?

oak sky
slow marsh
#

ino

oak sky
#

Haste is still pretty good

slow marsh
#

i mean we have mastery stuff to play around this time not really any haste toys like flag n such

oak sky
#

Like if you were getting pi/lust you would prefer to press exsang after getting the buff

lament warren
#

i don’t think he was talking to that guy

#

i think he was finishing his statement

#

and that guy just happened to speak in the middle

dry dagger
#

For Rasz do you go Kingsbane with Indiscriminate Carnage or just reg Kingsbane?

lament warren
#

ic is banned

#

just kb

dry dagger
#

Kk

strange python
#

or as @lament warren would say, go sub 4HEad

Does anyone have a more fight specific list of assa builds? For example for council, kurog and rasz. Or even different kinds of m+ builds

i think there's a spcific IC council build, but idk the others

i would say that

It's only 1 min. Even if you are gonna pull with it on CD it's not that long to wait 30s

Go for it

limber lion

It's only wasted if you don't get full value out of it

Honestly holding is a bigger waste most of the time anyways

I trained it specifically to use in dungeons, hoping it would be decent aoe

frigid pilot
#

some giga brain scientists wanna explain why outlaw is better on terros than sin, when sin sims way higher

balmy condor
#

Lot of Outlaw one tricks

slow marsh
#

uhhh cuz outlaw is easier idk

misty holly
#

Lob actually hit less than shot according to details, which seems wrong. Unless they all proced on single target. Guess I retrain it to shot.

frigid pilot
#

ok so its more about their choice of spec as opposed to sins having to do mechanics mid burst or sumth right

royal lantern
#

and can only play yahtzee pirate

misty holly
#

69k lobs, 79k shots.

slow marsh

sims and real performance are very different things. I guess it'd be more alarming if sin was way underperforming but its just under so that's fine

cus i sim 4k higher as sin rn but wondering if i should outlaw

4min 25 good

#

4min bad

#

1 min good

#

2 min bad

#

10 min good

#

11 min bad

#

etc

#

your dps is highest at cd peaks

#

and your dps is lowest at the furthest point away from your cd

frigid pilot
#

this is mostly a sin issue right

lament warren
#

and lust

frigid pilot
#

outlaw/sub suffer less

lament warren
#

yeah

frigid pilot
#

mhmm

lament warren
#

so if it takes about 10 seconds to get deathmark running on pull

#

and it takes 4 minutes for exsang to line up with dk

#

dm

#

and the entire burst window lasts about 20 seconds

#

adding them all together 4:30 can be an insanely good kill time

#

8 mins 30 can also be good

#

but we take into account that it is 4 minutes further from lust

#

so it’s worse than 4:30

frigid pilot
#

also, if its a low% wipe is it worth to use the compare tool anyways?

lament warren
#

yeah just segment both logs before everyone died

#

with the zoom feature

glass root
#

Guys , I want to make my 418 dagger which embelishment do i aim for , Fang or Wrapping ( i hear bronze wrapping is kinda useless )

lament warren
#

none

balmy condor
#

Neither

lament warren
#

lariat and something else

#

put alchemical food thing on weapon

#

since you play it all specs

glass root
#

so like we can only use 3 embelishment one is lariat , other one is food , whats the last one

balmy condor
#

You can only use 2, those would be lariat and flaring cowl

#

The food one doesn’t count as an embellishment

Just realized that even though I pumped in our HTerros ( I know, heroic means nothing now) kill last night, it could have looked much better if the team wasn't sloppy. fight ended at 3:58 Don't know what happened there, but our ranged and several melee dropped the ball with gray parses despite being hella geared. ._.

tough gorge

Class Tree design is just odd. Think it would be more logical to just let rogues go KB + DtB ST, and KB + IC, or DtB + IC for AoE. They think the ST would be too high so you can't pair both, but it's not too difficult to slightly nerf some auras to compensate (KB slightly weaker, Poisons slightly weaker, etc)

slow otter
#

Is Assassination easier to play than Outlaw for a new rogue player? (Not new to WoW just the class)

tough gorge
#

Outlaw is a reactive style, press whats on cooldown as a simple way (there's a bit more to it), assassination requires more maintenance.

spice surge

So just keeping them separated allows kingsbane to stay cool and not depend 100% on another talent

Currently sims from ptr show the leftside of the tree is not optimal for ST, cleave or big AoE, not great design.

ap is literally better on 4t and 8t

#

with no apl changing

slow marsh
#

yeah

#

and apl should change a bit

tough gorge
#

You know what... my mistake lol. I looked at only the dungeonslice

slow marsh
#

so probably more gains

tough gorge
#

didnt scroll to the bottom

slow marsh
#

to be fair i doubt it'll be better than our current kb exsang option but oh well

#

the homies did help me to realize that at least an attempted change is better than nothing

tough gorge
#

Seems like on packs AP pulls ahead, but is so far behind on ST, that overall dungeons slice has it behind the optimal build. 0.59% is quite negligible also.

slow marsh
#

well here's kind of the thing that i've come to realize

#

sin is never going to realistically compete at high aoe pulls, and idk if it ever should

#

the best we should probably hope for is to have an advantage in 3-5 target

#

which this is an attempt at

tough gorge
#

That's fair. I suspect the assass will do very well on any mythics that have that often, anything like AA then sub should go further ahead.

crisp badger
#

if i post a log can someone take a loot at my dmg and tell me how i can be better, dont look at previous pulls i was literally googling how to play sin

slow marsh
#

we still don't have any real way to compete with sub funnel or outlaw blanket damage so there's still something to be desired as far as payoff in 3-5t goes but yeah

#

i almost suspect something like taking AP and skipping IC but we'll see what happens

#

seems counter intuitive but have to figure out some way to make AP work for bosses if we're gonna take it in m+

tough gorge
#

Give it a % dmg reduction for every target it doesn't hit. Outlaw BF has something on a smaller %

spice surge
#

Sub funnel OMEGAKEKW

tough gorge
#

AP hits 5 targets for 100%, or 4 targets for 120%, 3 targets for 140% etc

slow marsh
#

yeah i'd like to see something like that on sin too. we'll see what happens

tough gorge
#

Basically would make every build take AP as it fixes the ST

slow marsh
#

problem is that with that specific iteration it means CT in ST which is pretty generally hated

tough gorge
#

Why would you CT on ST?

slow marsh
#

because ap increases bleed damage

#

and ct is bleed

tough gorge
#

Well, just do it once, and get the extra 2% bleed bonus

slow marsh
#

and if it was 1 target it'd scale up to whatever

tough gorge
#

not a big deal

#

dont need to spam it

#

atleast like aoe rotations

slow marsh
#

well yeah ofc but people still hate that concept

crisp badger
tough gorge
#

Whole point of assass is managing bleeds tho lol

lean fossil
#

i like ct in st more than exsang 🙂

slow marsh
#

they view CT as an aoe only ability and should only be taken in aoe / cleave situations and having to use it for ST is cursed

storm forum
#

I like CT in ST

tough gorge
#

You can also just not take it. the % bleed dmg to it from AP might not be worth it if you take something else.

i thought they were moving DTB and KB to the same node next reset, i meant those changes, does anyone know what that tree looks like

#

CT is okay in ST, just don’t make me play CT, mfd, with exsanguinated bleeds again

slow marsh
#

idk if mfd ever has a chance anymore with BS + DS being so prominent

#

Maybe if envenom got some kind of omega damage amp it could come back

dense herald
#

Man CT in ST is enough for me to not want to play assa

#

Just adds more unnecessary globals imo, already have sbs which is an unnecessary and boring global

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.

#

for using the kingsbane exsang build for ST, does mastery value drop off alot?

slow marsh
#

how would it

scenic marlin
#

well just wondered cos mastery seems to have very little value for me but that could also just be puzzle box

#

just wondered if there was a specific reason

#

or if its just the way my gear might be

slow marsh
#

like for sims you mean ?

scenic marlin
#

e.g

#

i looked at what gems to use

#

its telling me to use crit vers

#

after simming every single gem

#

where as when i sim as DTB

#

its telling me mastery

#

so just wondered if there was something that maybe caused that, just curiosity reasons really

slow marsh
#

I mean I suppose it could be puzzle box but yeah idk, i'd say link sim and hopefully someone smarter than me can answer

Question for the chads: From my vault, the best simming item is the current tech HC trinket, followed by a 415 NO trinket and 415 crit mastery ring.
Even tho the trinket sims higher, it can always drop from the grimtotem boss and no one else in my raid team want it, meanwhile i could change my 408 ring for a 415.
I do need some help deciding this xD

#

Or even the NO trinket.

Whats your 408 ring

normal mist
#

You can check the link i posted above to top tier raid bots

earnest citrus
#

Well, whats your rating? With 2.4k RIO you can get it to 415 for 500 valor I think... or is that kinda out of reach?

normal mist
#

2.2k rn

#

It isnt out or reach but im not really pushing rating rn, just doing weekly 16's for crafted gear improvements

earnest citrus
#

That should be 411 at least. Maybe reevaluate. On phone now so I'd like to avoid simming.

normal mist
#

i can show you then:

earnest citrus
#

Yeah, that would be optimal

normal mist
#

thats DTB ST raid build

#

but thats pretty much what im going for

#

I would go for trinket. How is the trinket for cleave? I actually don't know for sin.

#

I mean, of course you can get it mext week in your raid.

#

But you always take that risk.

#

ring is only +194, even less whem you make your ring to 411

#

and probably the same if you push some rating and go for 415

#

furthermore, arent ""unlimited"" sparks coming soon?

earnest citrus
#

Then you can get yourself a 418

normal mist
earnest citrus
#

But trinket has to drop

#

I mean it can and you will be sad, but it is more unlikely to get the trinket before you get an equal/better ring

#

The trinket is quite good for sin?

#

Comparison to other raid/m+ trinkets?

normal mist
#

I mean, from raid i obv want grieftorch, but i'm rolling against a bunch of people so that might not happen soon

#

Meanwhile the 415 trinket in m+ actually sims okay

earnest citrus
#

Yeah, but still, +194 for ring is nothing imo

#

I'd feel worse taking that regardless

normal mist
#

yeah im not thinking the ring rn, would be the trinket

earnest citrus

then again, feel free to wait for some more expertise tomorrow

Hey guys! Thanks so much to Whisypr's and all's work on theorycrafting.

My question: I'm noticing that Raidbots is simming a slightly different opener than what's recommended in the FAQ when talented into DTB and Exang. See the indicated area of the screenshot.

Do I follow Raidbots or the FAQ?
