because they arent if they are being punched into a sim

keen spruce
#

the answer you want is: 40% crit is a soft cap and you need to go into mastery until 23% then put the rest into haste

The answer that is correct: ^ that shit is not a thing anymore, just get crit/mast/haste and play better

im trying to avoid simming AT THIS TIME not saying i wont. but its not happening until i know if my stats are actually weighed correctly which i did give or if yall want look me up. shadowsbein dalaran

keen spruce
#

if you don't want to sim, then don't sim. just get crit and mastery and haste and avoid vers

oak sky

If you arent worried about simming just equip highest ilvl

because you do. if your secondaries are fucked up your not climbing the charts. it was a reason why i walked away last xpac and came back the last little bit to just pvp

Only rogues need dagger a lot of classes need ring

Okay, so the thing is right, every top player, theorycrafter, guide writer, even casual player uses simulations to determine their stats, and it works great for them. I’m sorry you have this adversity against sims for some reason, but saying like “I have 30% crit and 25% mastery and 3% haste is it good?” Just doesn’t help you. There’s no magic ratio between stats, no breakpoints, no weird amounts you want to be at. It’s a balance and a back and forth between the gear you have and the gear you get. We use simulations to determine if that’s better or worse. The best advice then would just get ilvl>crit>mast>haste. If you don’t have a shit ton of versatility, and haste isn’t your highest stat, heyo you’re doing good!

if you are asking about stats you're not climbing the charts anyways so who cares just shut up about it already and game

This is not actually how engineering works, you design in a virtual environment based on the desired characteristics / properties. Then you build test articles and verify that each part meets the predefined acceptance criteria (based on your virtual environment predictions), after that you put it together and verify it all works like you expected. So what I'm trying to say is, you can simulate a car.

I respect the stubbornness, but opening up to better ways is a way of growth.
I feel there’s stubbornness to an admirable degree and stubbornness to an almost idiotic degree.

Having fundamental understanding of how stats work is an important knowledge to have, and learning priorities is important; however, attempting to do computing work by hand is simply a fool’s errand. You have a very smart calculator that can do most of the guesswork for you if you know how to use it.

That’s my recommendation, your priority will always change and for continued improvement, it’s important to discern what’s the best, and I know the spec fairly well. I’m often incorrect in my conjecture.

I hope you’ll reconsider to a better answer, with a lot less trolling, but understand given your initial responses from most (not shmeeps he did a very earnest answer) like whispyr said, good luck!

ok think about it like this, you came in asking terminal lance questions (which are totally valid), CWO4 Whispyr gave you the scuttlebutt and then you got salty and took it to the LT behind his back. you got the asschewing you deserved, but thats it. we're all good now and you have the right answers. and you can go out and drag your sims through the mud to the chowhall

ebon notch
#

gearing can be fully ignored and let decided by the machine

oak sky
#

I dont think its that complicated

ebon notch
#

the gameplay can be worked on and iterated with full focus by the player

spending so much effort on trying to figure out what items to equip is hampering your ability to improve because you arent focusing on whats important

Okay, just as a thought experiment though right. Simulations can’t sim the exact fight, I agree. It’s a downside of sims but something in statistics that we want to avoid called overfitting the model. If you make something too accurate to one situation, it actually ends up skewing the results far more. Simulations are generalized for a reason, to provide “close enough” results. They get you 99% of the way there because of the variances built in and the situations that are built for it, that allow it to evaluate things like stats to that degree.

On the flipside of that, there’s you. You might be a very smart guy, a genius even. But you can’t sit there are tell me you can do it better by hand right? Surely you can recognize that the same fallacy of simulations not being accurate applies ten-fold to your own abilities.

What can you do that a simulation can’t? It already takes into account a near perfect rotation every time, it runs the tests tens of thousands of times to eliminate randomness, it know where the stat diminishing returns are and how to evaluate them, including stat procs from things like lariat, trinkets. It can evaluate the difference in your burst versus your sustained damage. It does all of these things, automatically, in a blink of an eye. You can’t hope you ever possibly compete with it. When we sim things, and get weird results, we have to verify that. There’s intuition and knowledge, but it only takes you so far. If I said versatility was our best stat, people would be justifiably confused, because the intuition is that there’s no way that’s possible. But there’s limits to that obviously. Could you tell me what’s better between 10% crit 40% haste and 40% crit 10% haste? You probably could. What about 30% crit 20% haste and 35% crit 15% haste? It’s a little more difficult now. And that’s just the same amount of stats, comparing between two. Now compare it between 5 stats of agi/crit/mast/haste/vers, and apply them all between each other. It’s just simply not reasonable for someone to do by hand. I have dedicated more hours than I care to count educating rogues and making sure the simulations are as accurate as they can be. I’ve helped everyone from world first raiders to just yesterday a grandfather who clicks his abilities and didn’t know the difference between combo points and energy. I truly am sorry you have had a bad experience with simulations in the past. I get it, really. But it’s the best we got, and hopefully you can recognize that

also if you're trying to avoid vers but can't always get exactly crit/mast on your drops. then you end up with plenty of crit/haste and mast/haste gear

Openers kind of get ignored in sims a lot of a time cause moving that one shiv 2 gcds later isn’t going to change anything realistically and having to rewrite the logic to eliminate an edge case of 20 dps is just not worth anyone’s time. There’s openers in the faq that I took the time to optimize though because people wouldn’t stop asking despairge

i could send you how i already done so for pvp if you dont believe me and i didnt sim once. only issue is i fucked up at the start and had to back track but because i did what i did i was able to figure out my fuck up. fix it and now just be behind in gear for multiple reasons. the main one being life. but thats also the thing. near perfect rotation. we are humans thats already going to get fucked up. i get it. thats like saying a human can shift faster then a transmission. you cant. not in todays car industry anyways. however it doesnt make it fun for me, it doesnt allow me to figure it out. now if this is something that really is a thing of the past then ill just keep going the way im going. but sims not going to tell me if the way im stacked is correct to how i should be stacked. sims just takes what you give it and "makes it better" it doesnt consider other things like secondaries possibly being fucked up. i found this out by the end of bfa. i do recognize that what was upsetting me was that it wasnt being understood based off a short xplain that really gave all the details needed as to why i dont want to sim at this time. i do see how thats all we got. but something tells me that blizz wouldnt just completely say fuck secondaries like that especially not how weird sin rogue is atm.

#

not once and i could be wrong or just didnt pay attention like i did this xpac. but not once have i pvp with sin rogue or even combat rogue (sorry didnt do outlaw once it got changed, didnt like the play style) have i see rogues stack so hard in pvp for verse. but see that made it really easy to find an understanding that i know have for secondaries. then also give the bad xperiance with that. i just want to make sure that the % are where they need to be. regardless if there is a cap or not. like even tho it says cs/m im sitting cs 27/ mast 30 is that do to the values of those 2 stats = different things like i know they used too or am i sitting correctly. thats the type of thing i want. if sims will do that then sure ill go do that. but im nearly certain sims only improves, not fully corrects, unless that was fixed or changed and i didnt know it then sorry. but otherwise im sure its generally the same as ive already been getting simmed by guildies just because they want too and im not paring up fully. getting there. learning the rotation did help. but im not there. i dont want just just slap gear on because im being told too or a computer is telling me too.

I don’t want to make another novel, but just a couple quick things:

  • pvp gearing is very different because there are no pvp sims. The tuning is different, and you’re not always optimizing for most dps like you are in pve. Different situations
  • you mentioned being so wrong in your stats sims can’t fix it, but if they only improve, won’t that mean you’ll eventually correct it? There’s things like droptimizer now, which will compare your character to all drops from an area, say +15 dungeons or mythic raid, and list off all the upgrades. Those should be able to show you very quickly what it wants from you stat wise. Should be able to see a trend with “oh every stat it wants crit/mast”

pawn and stat weights are inaccurate and have been phased out by the community because it's literal dogshit

the sims themselves behind it are good

#

it just spits out really inaccurate stuff

#

so that I understand

vague coral

yes and i took away pawn and tried to sim and use raidbots but noone would even xplain to me how that even worked well or long enough for me to care to keep using it so i went back to doing it like i did when i was top 10 world pvp on daggerspine back between 06-09 (wasnt a twink, wasnt max yet either and yes they did keep track of that stuff then too)

keen spruce
# vague coral but again they cant be if sim is supposedly taking some type of accountability f...

okay the example I'll use is this:

Say that the sim says that crit is best. and 1 point of crit = 2.6dps or whatever and 1 point of mastery is 2.3dps

so you equip your new bracers because they have higher crit

but now the sim says that 1 point of crit = 2.4 dps and mastery is 2.5dps

this might be completely accurate and true and it might match up exactly with what you mathed out on your paper. but it's still completely insignificant.

there is no breakpoint where you hit 4500 crit and it goes from being your best stat to being completely garbage.

The "stat weights" technically exist in a vaccum but change constantly and in such tiny increments that there is no meaningful value in measuring them or tracking them because the actual impact on your performance is negligible.

That's what I meant by insignificant

and the reason people spec into massive vers in PVP is

  1. pvp gear comes with a shit ton of vers
  2. vers keeps you alive so it's way more important than maximising damage

you should look at the first message you wrote me, was very cute

Is AP at least better than kingsbane

should probs stick with 411 grief over 421 cct for resets right? 🤔

balmy condor
#

I wouldn't

#

but I also am not a grieftorch believer

technically one extra reset on grief would make up for that on a 6 minute fight peepoplot

how is Sin looking after the patch? I see they we arent looking to pickup arterial precision and instead drop KB and go for D-TB?

keen spruce

525 dps = 189000 damage in 6 min.

Heroic guzzle = 202000 damage

it might not be right, but it looks right enough to me

i just need something to outsim this puzzle box..

sick of it

keen spruce

#

What, you don't like a trinket with 3 min cooldown that's hard to align with your other CDs?
crazzyyyyyyy

balmy condor

it ain't that bad

95% of the time you just hold it for 4 min

but so much verse ugh

gaunt moat

i wouldn't

if you can play outlaw

Sin is not in a great position in this raid tier or in m+

keen spruce

but we won't get buffs cuz we're rampaging through pvp

damn, that sucks to hear

i fully expect sin to be last place in wowhead's dps table this week

but you know what that means...

WE MIGHT GET 5%! copium copium copium copium copium

nah

they'd have to pvp nerf with it

@oak sky popeyes sold out of chicken sandwich NOOOO

LOL

gaunt moat
#

just.. remove pvp from wow.
no one pvps anyway

unkempt geyser
#

dumb question, for the aoe opener, are the 3 garrotes on the same target or spread

gaunt moat
#

Depends if you use IC

keen spruce
#

who would have thought all of those heavy handed sub nerfs in pvp at the start of the patch would lead us to assa getting left in the dust in raid KEK

gaunt moat
#

if not IC, then you spread your empowered garrotes, so 3 different targets

#

if yes, then i double garrote main target, then rupture (assuming SnD is up)

okay but mythic eggnog with no puzzle box or exang tho

Did you see that poll in WCL?
they're asking if they should not allow logs that use externals like PI

Assa should be nice on reclear and just pump ST

very payphone on reclears

lament warren

i voted yes

i’m trying to make the homies bank

i voted to not allow, make it PURE AND HONEST

(also because i will never get PI)

balmy condor
#

@keen spruce DESPAIR

#

slightly faster

#

and then we can ignore adds

#

and then the parse will come in

#

we're like 10 seconds off of just being able to ignore intermission

keen spruce

ooo that'd be spicy

step over the adds

to the boss

and keep blasting him

i tired that last week

I got yelled at

yeh

when the wall didn't die

that’s not your fault

when you attack it it dies before rupture

because of one person?

'yo am i waiting for exang to fall off then dm?

idk why that one torch is so baby dick SusNotes

so literally exang combo then dm after?

#

yaps

gusty mirage

tf is that

keen spruce
#

no they're just not good at staying alive

#

also letting an assas rogue do this

gaunt moat
#

DM will copy all your dots. which are currently ticking at twice the rate

gusty mirage
#

blessed

keen spruce
#

is kinda ridiculous

#

oh wait

those aren't from my good parse

gdi

okay only one free guzzle

but even more small add dmg

gusty mirage
#

@gray crest

distant tapir
#

but dont they fall off faster?

gray crest
#

what

keen spruce
#

so you double your exang bleeds with deathmark, then just reapply when they run out

gray crest
#

oh i got a 96 on that fight and kinda stopped caring lmao.

gusty mirage
keen spruce
#

and those new ones will still get duplicated during DM

distant tapir

ohhhh

thats why ok ty

keen spruce

I wasnt reapplying fast enough

sturdy crater
#

question maybe stupid but as assassination which poisons should i be using on terros?

gusty mirage
sturdy crater
#

i see it lets me use amplifying and lethal, but i dont think that acutally works?

balmy condor
#

as many as you can use

sturdy crater
#

thought we couldnt have 2 lethals

keen spruce
#

assuming you're running dragon tempered blades

gusty mirage
#

I mean its a safe assumption

#

we run it everywhere outside of council

keen spruce
#

dis

sturdy crater
#

ah so i should do amp+lethal for terros im assuming?

keen spruce
#

amp+deadly

#

for basically everything

sturdy crater
#

thought deadly was for +2 targets

keen spruce
gusty mirage
#

if you're talented into amp

#

you use amp

you mean the one without exsang or which one?

balmy condor
woeful meteor

or once you can use it again if you are running double on use with box

distant mesa
keen spruce
#

just get stuff rolling and lay into it. I normally leave a little early right before the chilling blast goes out to give the rest of melee more space and let bleeds to the work

#

and try to make sure dots won't run out on the boss

during the swap GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

@balmy condor
btw, since you're young, i've been meaning to ask you (this goes out to anyone else who's around 18-25)
what got you into playing WoW?
it's usually not a game that many young people are excited about

burnt prism
gaunt moat
#

That's the one thing i suspected is most reasonable
older family members who play or played

balmy condor
woeful meteor
burnt prism
#

he still forces me to level them

gaunt moat
#

20 alts? what

woeful meteor
burnt prism
#

he has like 2 accs but those 2 accs go to my brothers, both are older they hate leveling i liked the quests before SL so it was more of like a way for me to have fun i only started in SL

#

only started SL with my acc*

gaunt moat
#

I'm asking because wow isn't considered a very "cool" game to play these days.
it's not valorant or fortnight or even mmos like arc
so it's very rare for new people to get into it

#

personally i've also played mmos my whole life.
the first one i was really really into was ragnarok online
and i've been playing wow since open beta (i was 17)

real notch
#

alright i need everybodies opinion... Heroic Terros and Heroic Brood daggers or crafted daggers

gaunt moat
#

higher ilvl.
but.. raibots is the answer

keen spruce
#

you will do less the more your team does tho

#

but if you're progging then that's probably not the case

#

I normally land about middle of the pack GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

#

but like WAY behind a few classes

narrow pelican
#

Hey guys other than wowanalyzer, log reviews aren't done right?

keen spruce
#

but it's pretty well functional now

#

just a few bugs here and there

real notch
narrow pelican
#

Ok np! Trying to find where I'm going wrong on my mythic brood kill but I can't see anything super wrong. Looking thru my logs I'm catching small errors but there isn't anything MAJOR as far as I can tell

gaunt moat
#

you can choose "compare"
and then manually input which gear to test

keen spruce
#

it's kind of a target dummy no?

narrow pelican
#

Yeah just boss - I swap to adds for the last 2 waves to help but I don't think that'll have major impact

#

I waste some CP but it seems like my sequencing and uptime is all there

keen spruce
#

i mean it could if you've got downtime running between boss and adds. GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

#

what are you comparing your performanc against?

#

just parse numbers?

narrow pelican
#

yeah solely top parse numbers

gaunt moat
#

check that those parses are actually only dpsing brood and not AoEing

keen spruce
#

if you're doin anything out of the ordinary with assignments then it's normally gonna be hard to compare to ranking numbers from reclearers

#

also what notter said

narrow pelican
#

Yeah they're not moving from boss from what I could tell

distant mesa
#

progging it rn

balmy condor
burnt prism
keen spruce
# balmy condor like what

i said that just based off of the original post in pins you made. I haven't used it in a bit. maybe they're all fixed now

#

don't hurt me

distant mesa
#

boss dmg tho 👀

#

32%

balmy condor
woeful meteor
keen spruce
slow marsh
distant mesa
#

and tornadoes

keen spruce
#

i'd sort by individual adds

#

not all 3

#

cuz you're gonna get all of your damage sniped on the first one

distant mesa
#

cant in details

keen spruce
#

in logs you can see it

distant mesa
#

I dont do any damage to first add

#

its all boss

keen spruce
#

yeah me neither

#

but that's why your overall add damage is low

narrow pelican
keen spruce
#

if you're doing 2m add damage that's gonna be like a mill to add 2 and a mil to add 3

gaunt moat
keen spruce
#

like this is my 3rd add with no trinket procs

#

but htis is my overall add

#

dmg

real notch
keen spruce
#

just tell your raid lead to learn how to read logs and keep doin what you're doin

#

lol

gaunt moat
#

heh, you gotta do it right, try again 🙂

balmy condor
keen spruce
#

3rd add isn't a rogue problem

distant mesa
#

yeah its like >.<

#

we end raid in 20m

#

I'ma look

keen spruce
#

this is my add 1

#

and add 2 with a CCT proc

#

if your RL is just lookin at overall add dmg then they don't know how assas works

gaunt moat
#

the fact you're even doing ANY damage on first add is admirable XD
i don't even do that

keen spruce
#

i give em an empowered garrote and a bone spike lol

woeful meteor
#

on gar for the logs 🙂

keen spruce
#

doesn't mess up my opener cuz i'm not running exang peepoplot

gaunt moat
#

padders be padding

keen spruce
#

then probably don't touch the first add GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

#

lol

distant mesa
#

I dont

#

its the plague

gaunt moat
#

i wouldn't even know how to continue the opener if i'd first garrote add starege

distant mesa
#

if you wanna look at my add dmg

#

lol

keen spruce
#

I think it would be cursed

distant mesa
#

we still pulling on this log

keen spruce

with exang

standby

gaunt moat
#

so what are you taking, IP?

keen spruce
gaunt moat
#

you know i'm technically orange 🐰

keen spruce
#

that's your add 2 and 3

#

you're doin plenty of dmg to them

#

and there's some classes in there

#

that hsould be doing a LOT more

lament warren
#

(enhancement shaman)

#

(windwalker monk)

woeful meteor
#

I run exsang and just do the normal opener without maxing gar on sennarth, since I doubt maxing it would result in >400k dmg

lament warren
#

it won't

#

just send cds on cd

#

send a shiv on the spider unless you have deathmark on the boss

#

then you shiv the boss and just envenom spider etc

#

if you want to be ethical

#

oh

#

that monk isnt windwalker

#

wtf

keen spruce
#

actually @distant mesa with your gear you're probably overperforming a bit on add damage a little bit. I don't see anything wrong with those numbers at a glance

lament warren
#

hes fucking slamming

distant mesa
#

.<

#

then why am I being slapped at

keen spruce
#

i mean you guys also had 3 dead on that 3rd spider

#

so your'e never gonna beat the chilling blast

#

have you tried m+ with brewmasters?
sometimes they do more dps then me 🥲

dear god

keen spruce

and losing like 2200 dps vs a 405 puzzlebox

#

and exang

#

but i can also play the game with no brain

gaunt moat
#

tbh
exsang fucking sucks and i hate it and it sucks

balmy condor
#

out of all the builds, taht's one of them

gaunt moat
#

so it's understandable

keen spruce
#

to be fair

#

it's the highest simming for me if I don't use exang or puzzle

#

vs like tiny toxic or bleed -exang

gaunt moat
#

this puzzle box and exsang simming highest has truly cursed us.

keen spruce
#

not me OH_happyJump

#

maybe if my raid was better I'd feel the pressure to switch tho

distant mesa
#

simming 82k and pulling 70k before execute phase is sadge

keen spruce
#

and once valor is uncapped and I have nothing better to do but upgrade my puzzle

#

then i'll probably have to switch

lament warren
#

that's cuz sims account for execute

gaunt moat
#

what's your box lvl?

lament warren

GIVE ME YOUR PANTS

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.

gaunt moat

i just macrod exsang and then box

distant mesa

^ that just means sync them up if you won't lose a cast i'm assuming
