This man felt heavier. Like glued to the floor.

On that note, when is next SAYONARA + MAI TAI stream
living life like a cutscene
we are npcs anyway
We’re 5 healing kurog now I was gonna get hammered on Monday cause we were gonna wipe to earth 75 more times but now we might actually kill
true that

Imagine that
Tell Omni that the bribe to let us catch up was a nice feature
Lets do the same on Diurna
u got one guyd
why did you 4heal him in the first Place
Dude never came back to give me wisdom man
Uh, healer was on vacation apparently and a bad call was made
I have sennarth tomorrow
Monday sorry. Think it’s gonna be an outlaw situation
Which idm
Man, Ill be happy as long as I never have to do council again
Melee brain lightning circles

Council fun :(
The smaller the balls, the easier they fit in your mouth. -Unknown
we doing sennarth monday too 🙂
That is good wisdom
VENGEFULL RETREAT FELRUSH CHARGE HEROIC LEAP
🙂
Half the time I literally just cloak to escape the fucking hassle
Thank u sir
Funny
you make it sound like you wont get it back the moment you get back into range
Our guild finally figured it out
I also fuck off with my long arms
we stand afk as melee and ranged kill the boss
usually no one goes and get me there
I can now sleep easy, thinking about balls
bench all dh and warriors?

think it was a dk problem we had going
dont ask me how
blessed be the rogue noodle arms
Thats how i get the best sleep too
saves so much trouble everywhere
Do you play sin on council

I Play sin on Everything
Cause I’m built different
Thought Whispyr was outlaw main?
based and assa pilled
Even on the bench, whisp built diffy
Built diffy son
I’m an assa otp
Until I play sub for 1 patch
Then I’m a sub otp
And then I play it for 2 patches
And then it’s like I’ve never played assa in my life
dk spreading circles to juice out more free rp from shields 🙂
Do you never play Outlaw
Correct
UNWORTHY, why is a sub main making the sin guide kappa
Damn
True believer
Real shit
Delete the guides
Boycott them
(It’s fine I don’t get paid by ad revenue it’s invoiced for work done I already made my money)
1-3-5 is a weird keybind for fok/ct/ic
Indeed it is
wait what
Who plays like that
What's easier to play at the moment, sin or sub?
Sub
i wanna run the council build on hov once and pull all 4 kings
wait how is sub easier
always going sub for council cause i cannot be bothered 
I want a reason to come back to Sin but I'm not seeing it lately
two button two button two button ALKJSHFDIUGEIUBEGH SEC TECH two button two button two button
well i cant do that 2 button thing for some god forsaken reason
Sub is generate spend CDs on cd, not really anything to manage outside of that
at least not correctly
I feel like that’s supposed to come before like some big reveal
Because it’s changing
But I’m struggling to find the continuation
what rotation is that?
aoe?
i mean, aoe is like
press ic
then spamm ct
for assassination
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
i asked you what rotation you are describing?
acsshually u need to press garrote and rupture as well
I would like to defend my FoK on 1, IC on 5 brothers
i just think it is funny to complain about the aoe rotation on sub
Mut on 1 for single target
when it is very similar to assassination
I feel like my AoE buttons are in the wrong place listening to you guys haha
As long as it's reachable and comfortable
And you're not going to accidentally press it on st
Probably something I can fix considering how spam it is
Thinking about this again, and ur right except assa cries when/if the DoTs fall
If you want to do 0 dps compared to what you could do, sure
subtlety in a sense has more depth
as you keep using shadow strike on 4 tagrtes
you also need to position correctly for rupture spread
Oh is replicating rupture based on proximity?
Yes
and given that rupture does more damage on sub, you cry if it falls off too
Not smart
isnt that fixed come next reset?
Can't just spam it sadly
as much as i like the meme of "2 buttons and cds on cd"
Unless koffing was memeing
it is a bit dishonest
A bit more than "a bit" tbh
Totally not memeing. Absolutely serious. Yep.
When I played sub a bit in sl*, definitely felt like reality
I wish to hear more about ABCDEFUTF SEC TEC
haha^^
You can't tell these days 
"at some point" is the projection
sad
Fixed next expac let's go
nah they know about nightstalker, but expect that fixing that will be a big enough increase that they'd need to nerf something, afaik
boo
Shadowlands, when rupture on assassiantion did more damage than on subtlety 
Wasn't rupture on sub like, a different shadow dot? Or was that legion?
yes
the dance side did sim worse than the others even with NS bugged to 50%
they should make the ap node just flat buff bleeds in addition to the on-use with shiv, like how warriors get with their talent
idk how to revive it without changing talents (or replacing them with new ones?)
probably change fw node
Hostile take over of blizz
Sub didnt have rupture in bfa
The entire side must be purged
Yeah but didn't have a shadow ability that applied a DoT?
Nightblade
funny thing is
you would have spreads nightblade to all enemies
in bfa
same in legion
Garbo gameplay
the only xpac you did drop rupture/nightblade of the recent ones was SL
CT was on the talent tree
No AoE finisher baseline
@vestal wren assa and sub should stop fighting over their aoe rotation, and start asking: why the fuck can outlaw just press 1 button and then do more aoe dmg by default without changing anything

i just think the memes get odd
like i get it, it is fun to poke subtlety
but its the same line for 2+ years now
it gets a bit boring to read or even slightly annoying
welcome to the internet, repeat the same few things until its more stupid then my father on christmas
exsang bad btw
well soothing is fine (each main branches has 1 "regen" type node), fw is what, only good for outlaw? dance feels fine as an idea to me since it potentially enables more things for all specs
it always felt like knowing when to use CT and using it correct /positioning correct was a bit of a skill expression
im not a huge fan of CT spam either, but its like, better than not doing any aoe cus your dots dont do real aoe dmg .__.
I mean we can to…………IC 
Why did I just read all of that
I was literally thinking the same ahah


I should have stopped
But I just didn’t
i can clear your mind of all of that with two words oxi

Delete exsang
arcane mage
God damnit
If I got the flame ring with g.torch but no flame cap is that still better?

lol
Thanks
🤔

flame ring doesnt add a whole lot of damage to grief torch. maybe double digit dps increase over a fight. the flaring cowl is what makes it good
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/6vJziQ7iHf6Q4aLEqGdot8 thoughts on what to change?
if you don't already have pants then the pants lets you turn chest into tier and frees your head slot if you get the fire ring
I have all 5p of tier
Vault this week was a necklace, but I bought lariat instead
And took chest
Quick question about the catalyst; when you finish the weekly and get your revival charge, is it one charge PER character that gets it or a single charge that can you decide which character will benefit from?
Character based Im sure
i'd probably go with the legs since you have tertiary on gloves, and there are a lot of chances to get capes i feel
unless you've got some good ilvl non-tier around that you're thinking about turning into tier when you can
If you click the sim again page you can see my bags full of gear haha
I hoard a bit to much
yea i saw a lot when i tried to look so wasn't sure if i just clicked something wrong lol
No that's all in my bags
@shrewd night That's dope, thanks.
Let me elaborate. One charge per character that does the weekly. If that wasnt clear.
It's so full the disconnect bug trying to trade gear broke my raid leads UI
i guess if you have a chance to get heroic pants in raid try for those
Aight cool, ty
Gotcha. That's still awesome that you can potentially get a tier piece a week for a new character + your main.
other people might have better opinions than me, thats just my thought proccess there
3pc Gang wya 
Ye, I've just been at a stand still because I have lariat and weapon embellished. Was trying to see where to go
yea its sort of awkward trying to juggle short/long term setup planning
With the catalyst coming next week depending on what my 19 vault gives I might do chest
Or see if an off piece from raid is better
Pain. Nothing but pain and sadness.
One more reclear with my beloved one, then it's F's in the chat after that.
pretty sure it's account wide
Account wide? What does that mean?
you do the quest once and every character gets 1 catalyst charge
and i think i read somewhere that the quest progress is also account wide but i wouldn't trust me on that
just be a CEO and always go for short term 
suckers who dont already have 2400 and have 415 upgraded pieces (me)

IF i have cowl and ring Which embelishment do i remove
Weapon or Neck
Weapon right?
Thankyou :)
does pooling for shiv+envenom windows play a huge role? or do you just go after the guide and use shiv whenever youd cap on stacks otherwise?
wait which part increases grieftorch
So, Ruby Shell has 6 talents total?
I did all 6 into Fire Shot (ST)
Is there a way to sim it as that but 415 so I can see is it an upgrade
Pins
Found it, thank you !
Has a string to paste in Subtility pins
It's added into Top Gear options in RaidBots
O neat

hey guys! quick question; for ur 2nd rotation of exang cd's is this what i should be looking for? i understood this from the FaQ atleast
ya puzzle box after the echoing reprimand
is there a good resource for current shroud skips?
so u dont puzzelbox after the vanish garrote? i was doing that in opener too, since the !puzzle said, use it before exang
but if its better to use it before vanish, i wil do that instead!
You get a longer garrote in exsang if you puzzle earlier 🙂
oh thats a trick i didnt know yet! that explains the order then! thank you 😄

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
well i try to use it (without cooldown) 3 seconds after i come out of stealth yet it keeps applying to same target
Hey lads, if I was looking for a log review, what fight would I need to link? I'm 410 ilvl and in just an AotC guild.. my ilvl parses are complete ass the last couple weeks. Wondering if it has something to do with my guilds kill times? I'm parsing decent overall, but my ilvl parses are embarrassing. Any thoughts?
are you sure you're mousing over correctly
were they always so bad?
i vaguely remember them being a better metric back in bfa but i could be wrong
never have been
why do you say that, out of curiosity?
Disregard them, parses depend on so many things that can affect it
I've always been under the impression ilvl is better to look at because it compares you to everyone on your level.. sure I'll parse well overall but if that's against someone 10-15 ilvl below me.. that's not saying much
Hmm, okay. I'm not doubting you guys. I appreciate it, I just always thought I needed to be looking at ilvl parses first
We can be same ilvl with me 405 dagger you 428, parse is burned
im a dumbass i figured it out had the macro only on stealth bar, when i left stealth, had regular garrote
extremely easy to manipulate, same overall ilvl doesnt equal same gear, very low sample sizes
that's fair I guess yeah

For example I got a 100 ilvl parse on m rastakhan back in bfa
On frost mage
Because I was using titanforged wq trinkets
Just doesn't say anything about skill
another question is there a way to force the same button for ambush, when its "up" as opposed to it switching it when in stealth/out of stealth? like a line in a macro
Is there a way to sim embelisments before getting them? on like raidbots?
!lariat
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/316923750073499648/1055055765980844093/image.png Lariat can proc ANY gem you have equipped, in any slot.
No.
You can do that in Gear Compare
My bad, Top gear lets you swap them if you click the items
The H Kurog was a bust, no token drop 
Are we reapplying rupture at the end of deathmark to prolong the effect? And, do we let it run out completely before reapplying, or refreshing in pandemic?
!stats
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.
DM is dynamic, it doesn't register in to bleeds itself. We only let Empovered bleeds drop, this includes; Garrotes from stealth and Bleeds thats affected by Exsan.
Okey, so it applies to the bleeds already on the target when I use it? And when the duration ends it stops? Thought it worked a bit like the 4-set bonus Vendetta from selpucher..
When to channel puzzle trinket in carnage build opening, after first rupture?
Yes, it effects only the duration its active, there are no snap-shots
assa mains, what do you do for m+:
🅰️: play assa
🅱️: play offspec outlaw
🇨 :play offspec sub
Tfw no sub option
I play 
wheres the "reroll DH/mage"option?
Where's the "just play outlaw until sin buffs are in the pipeline" option
You silly goose, sin only gets nerfs, not buffs
cap
i got complimented in a PUG for playing sin the other day it was great
been waiting for that one since bfa bro
assa not allowed to be good in aoe/cleave
it just isnt
and obviously were not allowed to be top st dog either
so this spec is doomed
we are destined to be mid
until someone somewhere decides that assa is allowed to do good cleave
wanna enjoy the game? play a class that has good utility and good cleave/aoe, cuz if your ST is ever bad you get buffed into relevance on ST
Yeah I don't even want to do aoe damage tbh. I just want to be able to excel in 2-4t cleave like we're supposed to
only good at ST and nothing else? sucks to be you, see you in 4 expansions when you maybe get a rework
True words. I don't get why Blizz shits so much in one spec.
the sucky part is that when the talents were first released people were borderline 'sin is saved'
"Sin sucks at aoe, they're a St only spec." Okay then. Then let us be at the absolute top for ST fights then. "Wait no. Nerf sin for having too much ST."
-_-
And here we are in pretty much the same position as last xpac
I don't think I've ever played this spec in a "This is alright now" for more than 2-3 months until some shit nerf arrives.
love doing a triple shrouded garrote into rupture, hitting fok on 3t for 1 CP into 2CP mutilate and 15 seconds into the pull i finally have all my damage rolling while the DH presses 1234567 in order and does twice my dps anyway
Pffft. Where are my fellow Nelfs at for the Triple garrote, CT, Shadowmeld->stealth, triple garrote setup? Oh, the adds are already dead.
I used to play outlaw/sub in M+ but I tried Sin in DF M+ and it's pretty good. Sure it is FoK / CT spam sometimes but you get huge numbers with it.
More like average numbers 
Oh have you tried anything 15+?
Lol.
But, but... Hear me out. The Fok+CT spam on tree boss' adds in AA. <>_<>
Where's the huge numbers.
You peak at 200k in a AA/Nok fat pull and that's pretty much it.
I mean, yeah, but then everyone else drops to 100k and ur still up 150+k
Excluding the monk of course because of that ToD
Monks aren't real they can't hurt me
You gotta coordinate with the group, tell your tank and healer to keep up the mob count and pull huge when you got box off CD
I wanna do some bear pulls in 2 weeks
It's like spiteful/quaking or something
This week I stg I press kb and 20 explosives spawn
you can easily hit 300k on AA pulls tho
Stream it.
Ooooh. I didn't have my 4p prior to Tuesday. Can't wait to try it out on fortified next week.
Because I pull AA with the three pulls with Box and you don't get higher than 180-2XXK before the first boss.
pot + boon gets me over 500k in burst and 300k after pull. but im no streamer
Yeah but that's a trinket and an item doing the job for you not the spec
were just talking about numbers in dungeons? why would i exclude tools everybody has?
Because that way any spec can pull it lol. Hell Shaman pulls you half a million easily.
I feel like this is a bait to get a dungeon log review quick
Potion, sure. But boon it's irrelevant what spec you have.
If that's the case, also take the boon/ puzzlebox away from everyone else while we're at it (sorry, monks). And let's not bother syncing up our CDs with each other in large pulls.
No, Puzzlebox damage comes from your abilities.
No, no. That puzzlebox is a trinket that's making you do extra work. Don't include that in your data.
Just your base skills only. Don't even use other class' buffs.
Trying to say sin does good damage in m+ is cope. We have iron wire and can play our minds out to do comparable damage to a 123 spec but that doesn't seem like 'good'
I'd rather play my heart out than play faceroll outlaw, at least that's how outlaw felt to me, faceroll high apm feeling shit is exhausting to me
Ive done 600k peak on trees as sub (no pot)
But I've seen unholy do 900k
Unholy is insane spec in AA
Absurd
If you play with a good one they are top and and top st on bosses
So am I getting this right?
In ST DTB will be nerfed slightly, KB will be useless again and without execute.
In MT (carnage+shiv) can be better with few targets and ST will be even worse (plus even harder to skill into iron wire?).
wow, why.... assa isn't even really better than outlaw and sub, while much worse in aoe
I mean, thats not ALWAYS the case tho 😄
i personally dont get how sub was allowed to get blackpowder just given to them last xpac but we still gotta talent into our aoe 🙂
no
please god just give us ct baseline or some shit
blackpowder is a talent now tho
dtb is going up, kb is like -5% from the new dtb, ap+ic is ~.5-2% below dtb
okay, thank you!
as someone who raids with KB built, I am very sad tbh
if you look at the spreedsheets in faq there is a ptr tab
only good thing for me is that I'm at least looking forward to try the new talent together with ic, sounds pretty fun at council
best st is going from kb+exsang (89k) to dtb (90k)
the ap build for st is simming slightly above current dtb
you can enjoy the game if youre bad at st but do good aoe. you cant enjoy the game if you do good st (cuz youll never do INSANE st), but shit aoe/cleave
ww was fine to play all throughout SoD even though it had dogshit st
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
yeah sure but you wont necessarily get a ST buff thats makes your relevant on ST
just maybe relevant overall
you might, and even if you dont, youre still gonna be relevant on 3/4th of all raid encounters cuz blizz doesnt know how to design st bosses anymore
and WW as an example has many people asking for ST buffs
but ye, its easier to play around bad ST than bad AoE
Isn't this mostly because they basically only balance around raid stuff?
they balance around ST damage
which is stupid
cuz very few fights, if any, especially during the later parts of a raid, are pure ST
so boomies can gaslight everybody all of alpha and beta about how theyre the worst spec in the history of teh game, ever, and then be omega valuable on 3 of the last 4 fights because they do good aoe/cleave
Yep, this.
pls dont

dont wanna do a mercy killing
Boomies are bros.
all 3 of you
I mean, any dude that decides to play as a chicken has my respect.
you act as if they dont all go astralform lol
Ok I rephrase to a dude that doesn't use astralform.
birdform is bisform
Flap is the best spell ingame.

wait does this new talent let you shiv 5 dudes and deal 20% more boon damage to them
So at reset we dont play KB build anymore? Is there a link to new build ?
shiv doesnt increase boon damage
why not
Why should it?

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
cause it's nature damage wdym
for m+ IC + kb is the way to go?
Blizz fixed abilities/talents not affecting trinkets since like 2 years ago if im not mistaken
Because of rogues i ghink
rogues and warriors
class abilitys more or less NEVER interact with item effects
and then they forgot about firemages in antorus, but yeah
frost dk also could do funny stuff cus they increase frost dmg
both bte and gs work on trinket 
outlaw is a mix of all desing flaws you can imagine, it just fits the spec wdym
it actually doesnt work
cucked spec
read improved shiv 
cant spec sin
i think i can peak 400k with boon
i mean you can peak 400k without boon but like

grats, you can pad on small shitters that dont matter
seli all the new kids only care about details
ye
and score
cuz clearly
the guy with 3105 score is more skilled than the guy with 3102

has nothing to do with who they play with or how often or if they got some lucky keys, that 3105 guy is just better at the game

That’s just factual


I blinded the monster too fast to the point he spawns as neutral orange but hadn't had enough time to turn into agressive red so it bugged out.
Blizzard features.. what else to say.

We just stood there taking AoE with nothing to do.
Why am I even allowed to Blind it....
What did the group say?
they just laughed
I have seen this mob bug it probably wasnt because you blinded
last time I did this dungeon the same mob did that
for m+ its better to go KB + ic or DTB?
DTB on Tyran KB+IC on Fort starting next week its DTB+IC anyway
how can you go DTB + ic
❤️
Do we have talent setups ready?
@woeful meteor what about posioons instant or nature?
Deadly, the one from Sin tree
!whysper
got a question about improved garotte, does it always give 50% increased damage on garotte, or only when its from stealth ?

50% from stealth
can you shadowstep sennarth if you fall from the pull in?
yes
Where can i see the recommended craftings for rogue?
im pretty sure there was a thread on the discord but i cannot find it:c
Are we dont Play the new talent?
New talent is less boss damage, more trash damage + AoE soothe, so you can play it on some weeks if you want.
Foo's sheet has a breakdown of embellishments and a list of craft able stuff for each slot
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
In general though, it's lariat and helm, espcially with the ring. If you need helm slot for tier though, sim yourself, most of the other embellishments are about the same and less than half a % of dps increase for them.
is valor getting upcapped next week or nah?
I haven't seen any announcement of that being the case that atleast

How much haste do you guys normally have? My 382 Sin rogue has 12%(trash gear/ few conq pieces) is it normal to have times where you have an energy drought?
Yes. There will be periods of time when you get low on energy after burst+depleting tea charges. Those are pokey times while you pool energy.
Thanks, I was kind of worried when I was just sitting there AA
How much do you actually pool tho? Cause I usually just start to keep my CP up and only keep the envenom uptime + use amp stacks, rather than spamming mutilates + envenoms
I'm trying to figure the kb + exsang build out. FAQ says not to use deathmark with exsang but the opener rotation does that.
pooling is not a thing
for a long time now
I mean deathmark not kb
So what do you usually do when energy starved? Still spam away as soon as you get energy for mutilate/envenom?
yep
the thing is, in the dmg windows where dmg matters, you are not energy starved
like, during dm you have 4 bleeds and energy is no problem, for KB you want a tea charge and that means no energy problems etc....
You got me. I didn't mean pooling like getting back up to max. Just that his energy reserve will be in the dumpster for a bit until it gets back up. @_@
Do you also start DM with low energy or save just a little?
You just send
I see
dm gives you energy+its 2min, so you will get a tea charge a couple seconds in it 
Eh? It's saying not to use Deathmark before exsang. Deathmark is a bleed. If you pop it then exsang, you also lower the duration of deathmark as well. So you always want to pop exsang then use deathmark afterwards.
like, 1 charge every 1min, it somewhat allings with your bigger windows by default cus of it
Understood. Thanks a lot 😄
oh I thought it snapshots the durations, mb I misread
is there any way to make nameplates more steady
sometimes i try to do mouseover int/garrote or whatever and it just flies to the other side of my room
is there a mast or crit soft cap?
No
thank you
Just keep simming yourself
Will assassin be better for M+ on tuesday?
not really

for m+ I want to keep garrote on as many targets as possible
what about rupture? in dtb build
6bleeds in total
but like, you should rupture high priority targets anyway
cus dmg and stuff
NO PROOF OF APE 4 U
how does this make sence
what change makes ic not bad
1 extra point?
still wasting 4 points on nothing
The death of kb I guess? Yeah doesn't make a lot of sense
taking IC on raz is a weird feel
!log
i just play single target on rasz and let other people pump adds
like... if your group is struggle with adds, CT is probably enough to get you there rather than going deep aoe with IC
yeah fr the shield is usually a much bigger problem than the adds
at least for my guild
IC would be for padding if u gonna play sin
and i dont think u even pad with it
u lose so much ST and 90% of the fight is st
the 10% of the fight that isn't ST adds shouldn't be up long enough for mega IC value
pick a number
from my 11hours of wiping this week I'd say you'd get 2 on the first transition, and then some random pointless ones with the big storm ele's fragments later?
any number
74
pretty good number
good
IC after landing, its gonna come up when second pack is too low for big value; hit last pack with it
and afaik intermission on Mythic isnt even that much about aoe
assuming you're the aoe carry anyways, which would be a weird vibe
as it is killing the important mob fast
big numbies mo betta
yep
I've just been running sub on raz prog lately anyways for "good enough" shield burn + dealing with the intermission on heroic lol
hitting a 900k damage sectec on shield is kinda hilarious ngl
man I wish we had that sub talent
that spreads rupture
its so perfect for sin and yet no
lets give it to the clearly superior "bleed spec"
yes
but I dont enjoy number being low
make number big
do better
crit more
all i’m hearing is skill issue
I actually did over my sim dps last week
Simply better
We actually have quite a bit rng
with seal fate and blindside
at least we not yahtzee spec tho
or gamba enhance
rotation? hit glowy button until button stops glowy

Does the PTR DTB build have the trinket sim fixes (i.e. the puzzle box + grieftorch thing that Whispyr mentioned on 1/15) included in those sims?
yes
Ok, cool. So we get a small DPS gain to the DTB build come 10.0.5?
it doesnt make sense, i re thought about what i said and looked at tree again and realized im just full ape 
not noticeable
but yeah
on paper it's like 100 dps better or some shit
Negligible then.
Considering that’s one of our main things, would be nice but they probably like, but you have IC. Would be nice to have it somewhere mid tree though.
in algethar what buff do we go for
Crit
is it not vers
is seal fate value that big
it’s just a good stat
and the largest amount of stats
and has defensive value
Ok so tell me what puts you sub 50%
Crit good stat for damooj.
Not just sf
Eating frontal 🤣
Tree boss you feint, you get to 50%
Bird, you feint or cloak the screeches you never get below 50% either
so is vers
vers even sims higher than mastery for sub
marginally
Seal Fate just too good
2,5% less dmg 
isn't it 5% vers?
that will 100% turn this mechanic that does 89% of my hp into 30%
I mean
yes, and 1% vers is 0,5% less dmg taken
But the thing is that in Al'gethar there's nothing really that can kill you
ye
shit healers can kill you

Bigger key, higher value. But legit crit is bigly
Gaming
ok man
Should’ve leeched more
no I should've alt-f4'd when one of our healers brought his 399 evoker with 0pc to a 20

68 minutes btw
And when I found out today that Vexamus does no damage at all. Algathar became a meme
68 minutes of fun tho right
Ran a 16 with a 380 evoker earlier
if i need advice from the “one mistake and i leave” below title cutoff in preseason guy i’ll be sure to ping you
but from a pure damage standpoint i am not entirely sure crit is best
you sure it wasnt me 
Pretty sure that person was a better healer than 99% of the pugs I’ve seen
Would be better if it was 69
Nah it was Lauren
was the healer alive
i trashed this 16 on my healer evoker lmfaoo
no
class so hard
wait was it actually lauren
one of our guildies bringing a less than 400 ilvl character to a 20? i dont believe you
Yeah
then proceeding to queef about how people missed explosives
Lauren GIGA gamer. Hard carry
cause he can't "spare a global"
399 evoker is playable tbh
who was it?
Random pug of all things
oh
makes sense
Echo was pugging randoms today for the luls.
What's the right strat for the adds during dathea heroic? I feel like I'm not contributing much there.
you’re not
if you’re having a lot of trouble on ads you can run ic
the right strat unfortunately if you’re playing rogue is to either sit boss or not play sin
but if you’re deadset on sin and pugging or something
you can just grab ic and iron wire
So if the rest of the raid has the AoE to handle adds, I can feel better about not being as effective there? When I look at boss damage alone I'm at the top, but I'm garbage at adds.
correct
ok, cool.
optimally playing sin you just never go over
That would be my dream. XD
thats not a high bar mate
Is the CoS ring better than using two crit mast rings?
might be
for assa yes
sim
my 415 cos ring sims higher than all other rings sooooo...... idk if other can go higher than eranog+cos ring

got ruby 402 now, that vs 395 technique or 408 boon?
when the ruby is fully trained, probably that and the technique for single target
Dumb question but do we know for certain if any item changes are coming with 10.0.5 or is everything listed so far all we are getting. I want my razzyg trinket buffed
gota train it then 😛 I got stone tho, 415

yeh I mean whelp is unusable before it's trained
you probably still play KB
no shit??
I mean you play KB for the shield damage
and that's 200% damage increase on each KB in during shield
ah yeah that's true
hey gamers is this the right channel to create a thread for log a log review?
for assassination yeah
when playing kb and using amp poison i cant stack up KB right?
I'm not sure what you mean by that
it says " every time you poison a target hit by kb with deadly poison the damage of kb is upgraded by 20%
correct
but since i dont use deadly poison it doesnt work
or does amp poison also count?
amp poison counts
ah ok thanks
oh ok
i translated it from my language
i translated it
it says "tödliches gift" which is either lethal or deadly in german
lol
thanks lol
german names are cursed af
had to do a coaching session in german one time with a guy who played on german client
worst fucking thing I've ever done in my life
yeh
now that you say it the translation sucks
I'm fully convinced that the german client is actually just ran through google translate
the Tea is translated correctly tho
the dungeon names are all one word but it's 16 syllables
item names also suck
Schattenmondgrabstä...
I speak german and it just fucking hurts me to read

schwarzwasserschwimmershuppenveste
poggers
good item name
I'll definitely say that every time
crimson tempest is "blutroter sturm"
yeah
bro when I heard that I was dying of laughter
and elysian is Wiederhallender Tadel
the cd where bleed goes 80% faster is Ausbluten (bleed out)
gotta download 8 gb just so i can play in english
yeh, but you also lose 8 gb because it deletes the german
but if i dont download it i have to ask stupid translation error questions in chat
like the poison one
ok good
i was worried i would understand
btw are you NA? if yes are there also many m+ quitters
zoldyck says "bleeds and poisons"
mastery says "bleeds and poisons"
dashing scoundrel says "your poisons"
2 of those work on envenom, and I won't tell you which

yeh
m+ quitters are everywhere though
ugh not sure what dashing scoundrel is but that doesnt work on envenom pretty sure
the poison crit talent
it says "your poisons" which are applied ones
above dragon-tempered
oh that
and that works on envenom 
i mean wouldnt expect zoldyck to work with envenom
its mastery
oh man
that would giga busted no?
why doesnt wow just tell me that tho
because the tooltips suck
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
and honestly, they don't really need to be good
because knowing that mastery buffs envenom doesn't really change anything
anyone who cares about their damage will sim themselves
and the sims will just spit out whatever they spit out
now the thing with kingsbane, that's just a translation error, unlucky
is there a set phial sin uses or is it like..a situational thing..noob question..i know lol
vers
i lose 300 dps when playing dtb
yeh, happens
i lose braincells playing DTB
some people gain 300 dps
huh
there's like 6 viable builds for assassination in single target
and people sim higher or lower depending on their gear
well when i play kb i actually get to my simmed damage with dtb i actually play like 5k less
Idk about other languages, but in french DK tooltip are all legit non sense gibberish
that seems difficult to believe
getting to sim dps is already incredibly difficult doing it even once
I've only hit my simdps like 3 times in the last 4-5 years
i mean i got closer to sim dps like 4k below but on dtb im 10k below
yeah just gonna play what works best
yeh I think the chinese tooltips are okay, and the english tooltips are okay, and everything else is just a disaster
yep
in german it says natural damage < badly translated
this is the bad translation nature damage also works
natur-shaden I guess
unless they went with like naturlicher shaden
which
cringe
but what can you do
seeing the german translations compared now feels really bad
yeah
Can flaring cowl get a socket?
There a specific item or do you have to be lucky
vault sockets
Ah
this is why I don't do coaching sessions in german anymore
it indeed says lethal poison on kb now
Didnt realize the vault could get you crafted gear
it doesn't

what do you think vault sockets are
I'm talking about the coins
when you don't pick an item
you trade it in for a socket
Was not aware of that
yeh that would be important info that's missing 
quick question how am i supposed to get curve when no one takes me in raids because i do not have curved
join a guild
hm
keep pugging or start your own pug
or join a pug thats doing broodkeeper that goes onto raz
then you get boss % and you can tell the next pugyouve wiped at 10% or whatever
and theyll take you because you know the fight
good idea problem is no one will take im into brood > Rasz cause i dont have curve
im trying to get into dathea with 10% wipe
i mean idk you just have to keep trying
i just want my 6/8 for vault
i was a pugger in 9.0 and i got aotc and 2/10 M
its a grind
^
Look for a mythic /raid guild to join
install premade group filter and apply groups that actually need rogue
it might take a while or until later in the season but pugging it is doable
pugging the first few months of sod, spending 3 weeks straight trying for aotc 
dark, but fun times
kt was 
truth. I've gotten closer to pugging H raz than to lfr
Are the talent changes going to make assassination more competitive in m+?
talent changes don't change anything
you play dtb + ic instead of kb + ic
does the same damage
That's a bummer
Is assassination really the least apm rogue spec? I'm trying to figure out the one that's least likely to mess up if I push buttons out of rotation on accident but they all seem so complicated :/
Is one less punishing than the other for making mistakes?
sub is probs the least complicated rogue spec rn
Hmm alright thanks! Guess I'll spend more time at the dummy practicing 🙂
Hello, legion m+ is coming soon any idea if we should farm Faulty Countermeasure from Vault of the Wardens?
pls say no
