i know this sounds bad but
when garrote drops off
ah ok
i didnt really sit right with me to wait till the first one drops off before applying a new one
Can just use it early on the opener
I use mine after it falls off too
Unless you're gonna get an extra cast it doesn't seem worth it to me just to avoid holding 2nd DM for 15s
just puzzle after vanish garrote and before exang
PB after the ER
or right after sbs
I would generally cast torch when DM dropped
it's not like super critical where you do it in there iirc
but the torch cast isnt as important as the PB
yeah just box before exang
Either way you're wasting a lot of the value of vanish to use it with opener DM
then torch on CD
^
It "Feels" right after the ER

i mean i only use puzzle exang on target dummies but it feels right after sbs to me 
truuuu
Using after er makes the most sense true
but it don't relaly matter
Cuz you let the rupture you're about to clip tick a bit
i'm glad i'm not the only one that has to post it now 
ur a baby
then i'll have to do serious rat sims
i dont LOVE it but it def doesnt feel as bad as it did at the start of the expansion
to justify my decisions
Its just there
But I’m Stockholm syndroming myself because I’ve never known the love of grieftorching
One more than me buddy
until it became clear that the unholy marraige of exang and puzzle box would rule my life
for the whole tier
then i threw 5 in the sea
and they just kept dropping
I get to grieftorch a lot

It's ok it's just a normie so it's not anything to covet
I think a normal is still an upgrade 
Probably isn’t unless your trinkets are complete hot dog water
Whetstone st is my second best
415 stone prob much better than norm torch
Better do the weekly then

cant decide if I take 421 cos ring or 421 tier chest from my vault
I already have the chest and the ring at 415

I’d take the ring
Easier to get that chest replaced if you’re smashing 20s and mythicnraiding
very easy to get 421 tier chest
very not easy
to get 421 cos ring
cance of geting 1 single item from m+ pool vs chance of getting any chest piece

Question, does autmn buff from Paladin work on us? I asked for it in raid and it didnt feel like it reduced any CDs
@marble hemlock it wouldnt work on DM right?
cause its not baseline?
if you didnt notice it on deathmark then its probably something more obscure
My pala told me my cd numbers were meant to turn green nvm thats wa lmao
none of them did lmao
Is there a plugin that automatically sends inflammatory messages to people who roll need on gear I want
Need it stat

i cannot find any information what what blessing of autumn actually does

goin to the pala discord standby
yes that reads at though it would affect all cooldowns
but ye, if anyone has experience with Autumn buff pls let me know. I know it works on many classes but never seen it work on Rogue
Does raptur get higher dmg with combo points or is it same dmg but longer duration?
longer
thinking if i need to have a Echo rapture going for deathmark
alright awesome
ty
then that shouldnt matter
right?
yep, it doesn't particularly matter
you could argue it's a small gain to not rupture during dm but it's probably within margin of error if simmed
only matters if you wanna use exsang
^
Awesome, thanks guys
im still boycotting exsang
unquestionably one of the shittest class discords
they seemed friendly 
Hello, i just tested a new opener by switching 1.Deathmark and 2. Exsang, I did way more single target dmg and I usually do with Exsang first and deathmark second. This was m+ scenario Ancient giant went form roughly 6 mil boss dmg to almost 8 mill
Exsanging your DM is a dps loss
they don't need knowledge they have faith in the light
Truuuu
Placebo
bruh every fukin paladin in valdrakken is afk
copypasta?
it shortens ur dm window
so less time you get double poison application = less amp'd envenoms
we're bringing back the 40 sec BA
got it
uh yeah blessing of autumn @muted ridge
doesn't do shit
used deathmark and evasion before it was cast on me, used vanish/cloak/blind/shiv/spike/tea/ER/sprint after it was cast
not a damn thing got reduced

what phials yall use for raiding? single target fights

Please save me from this torment
sennarth mythic and have to go on adds because my raid is bad >.<
"just nuke" they say
when they are wipe calling on mythic Terros last few% :'c
why didn't you just kill the boss? 5head
wipe call... :c
Oof
Had someone yelling over disc for me to kill raz for us at 3% left when it was just the tanks and me lol
ahh
The locks who clearly died way early were probably friends and didn't want grey kill parses logged 😂
prolly a dumb question and im still tryn to figure my way around this disc.. we use double sophic for weps yeah and not frozen devo? Feel like i messed something up
i figured. i screwed up lol
It was with the guild 😄
What adds
Lol
You mean the large spiders
Your whole raid including you should be swapping to them
It's easy for sin since you want to multidot boss anywau
Just change your envenom and mut target what's the deal lol
lol
don't fly of the handle there it's called sarcasm as everyone memes about sin being boss only.
sin however shouldn't be second highest big add damage
ill take ur spot 👍 i like spider boss
i honestly love the boss.
just frustrating when raid damage on ad switch is so low.
even with Speed lets go

How is prog going?
wait I have an answer to this
one of my officers sent this to me last night
that was after 2 people
died to the lightning strikes
so it's going pretty good

LMAO
we limped into p1 intermission with like 4 people alive
so ya know
boss almost dead

Boss just like me
What does pulls mean in that context
Less letters
i love puzzle box
A shitter with a kind soul
cute too
Is there a 418 belt to craft with spark?
Yep
Good
Life bound belt
^
what chart is that
One more , can that belt be socketed?
With the vaul socket probably
vault*
but to answer, it's 95% percentile over 1 week, overall damage.
but you know what that means?
we'll get a 5% buff!


Yeah so that’s not a kosher word
Except in some ways we're punished more now than previously cuz we can't just swap one talent and have cleave damage
sin still good on raz or just go sub at this point?
go sub
assassination is good on raz, but sub's just better
and unless you guys are hurting for boss damage, there's no substantial benefit of going assassination over sub
my fucking life man
it be what it be my dude
"Our fotms can't live, can you go sin and pump boss?"
if we need the boss dmg is it just a pure ST build or is there a little aoe in the talents for the add phases? Or just shit outta luck on the adds lmao
So is sin just a play for fun class then?
assassination is SOL for adds
you go blue side on raz
and you funnel the one add that needs to die
I mean its viable in all content
it's just for a lot of scenarios, sub outclasses it
seems to be that sin is good and solid, but sub is amazing and outlaw is great, so it's outshined by the other 2 specs
you mean, all but 1
(assa is slightly better on 2t)
then play it
unless you play it bad and perform poorly, no
Right now sub gives you best of both worlds.
it has good AoE, short CDs so it has bursts on demend, and very competetive ST
Sin was good at the start, but they kept taking away and giving to others.
Blizz a bunch of commies
love balancing around raid and ignoring m+
Well I think I been doing good for the stuff I have been doing
So if I swapped to sub do they use diff stats?
Just out of curiosity
honestly feels like they've balanced sin around PvP 😂
especially how destructive exsang was at pvp
ooh
yea
do they have 8t silence?
on a 45s cd(which it isnt cause vanish is 2min)
(make vanish 45s cd)
We’re dependent on the others in our group to be hot dog water to shine @gusty mirage @subtle tundra
any ideas why a 405 flaring cowl would be simming lower than a 385 raid finder tier helm? I figured flaring cowl would be pretty good for sin
Sim doesn't take deaths into consideration for torch right? so it should be more dps, right? 
Is there a specific amount of crit we want as assassination? like...40% or sum?
sims come in like 2k dps lower
Because you lose 4 set
You need both
Anything between 0-100%
very specific 😄
Sure
That's how much it matters
So there is never a point you don't prioritize crit stat on gear?
You do because it's generally the best stat
But that's not what you asked
There is no secret number to aim for
So just stack crit as main state as high as you can get it then
Well you would sim yourself and do what the robot tells you to do
I figured mathematically at some point crit rate would have diminishing returns
But yeah that's a good starting point
It does
Just like every other stat
But it's not that linear or something that you can figure out yourself
That's why we use sims
42% crit might be good for someone, 31% might be better for someone else
I guess I'm not understanding the nuance of that. Is it because of different builds?
no because we dont know what gear you have or have access to
if you dont have cowl+ring combo your stats are probably going to look quite a bit different than anyone else who does
same with icon trinket
then the rest is just whatever highest ilvl offpieces you have gotten so far
I get what your saying a bit better now. I was having trouble wrapping my brain around it but I think I get it now
Your juggling stats to maximize your dps, when your subbing items for BiS or your BiS is low iLvl
in most cases stats just arent that far apart right now for assa, so ilevel will just win a big majority of the time, ok maybe 418 vers haste would lose to a 415 crit mastery for example
but you never have to bother with that because the sim will just tell you in 1minute
thats why he says someone could have 40% crit and somebody could have 30%, because those just happen to be their stats with the best gear available to them right now
I honestly couldnt tell you how much of a stat I have because I dont even check
Not even 33.3%?
How much mastery
all
100% yep got it 
it reduces non direct damage
didn't sleep through raid 
only slept for 4 hours

After many comments asking me to bring the series back, including one in a late night stream, i impulsively decided to look for a group doing Heroic Raszageth that I could go undercover in... the results were much better than I could've ever expected - hope yo...
i'm famoose


I wish we didn't have DTB+KB on the same slot.... Are they planning on reworking sin at all?

theyre thinking of reworking exsang
well finally have unholy dk levels of st 
They just did...they took KB and DTB from being separate nodes and combined them into one node 😂
can someone explain this a bit. For single target your more then likely going to be invis for that first garrote opener gaining your 50% dmg buff to it. Why use that into Slice and Dice into using Garrote again? Wouldnt that just replace the barely tik'd empowered garrote? In other words, why use garrote to gain stacks for rupture instead of keeping the stronger garrote going and using like Mutilate for a couple stacks for that first rupture?
sry dont mean to butt in to the convo lol
#assassination-faq explains this
in the opener section^ explains the whole garrote thing
ohhh mbmb i missed it thank you!
atleast blizzard is helping my wow addiction by keeping sin this unfun to play in anything but patchwork single target fights!
either of the jc trinkets worth it? sparks arent really an issue
there a macro for buzzing rune to ensure it puts it on each weapon? idk how many times it reapplies to the first one and just waste them. kind of annoying
#showtooltip
/use [button:1] Buzzing Rune
/use [button:1] 16
/use [button:2] Buzzing Rune
/use [button:2] 17
right click, left click
lol sure fun spending 15 of my talent points to do subpar aoe damage 4 for ct and 11 on ic!
lets not forget the laughable single target with this m+ build too. 2800 as assa atm and its just tiring with current tuning lol
yeah i found one and that was it. thanks
This one is also really handy for poisons
/castsequence reset=10 Deadly Poison, Amplifying Poison, Crippling Poison, Atrophic Poison
i do have that already.
CT is 2 points, and IC is 4
Do we use our ST build on Dathea still if we are on platforms
no they'd want you to run ic for silence
whats the IC build is it on the spreadsheet?
just the m+ build
and then you weep openly
because you're playing assassination on platforms
BMQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIkIJRkElEAAAAAAAJAkkAAAAAAAQBJOQJJkkkkWKJCkEJRCA
how much dmg am i missing if i dont engage in the crafted/embelished gear
couple %
dont engage as in im broke in game and dont wanna buy gold via wow tokens coz it will only incentivize this gold-sink crafting system
what server are you on @sudden canyon
illidan. is it as bad as legendaries? in terms of gold cost
lariat is a huge up
other then that not a big deal imo
one lariat is less then a legendary I think. You can get someone to craft it for you for like 5k
when you say gold sink is it because of the mats and needing rerolls w/ t3s or because players are asking for commission
don't go for rank 5, use tier 2 mats and it's not that expensive.
lariats the one with the main stat proc
There are people on most servers that craft max rank for no commission
There’s no main stat proc
Just one and done. You could probably do a public order if you wanted and someone would fill it even if you put up 500 gold
anyone with the lariat recipe going to be specced into it too.
theyll also just fill it in general cause its like 3 level ups per craft
Cause it's their most in demand and profit craft
Some people may pay you or supply you to craft your items actually
you could offer to sell your sparks
so if you're not going for rank 5 and stuff it's not that expensive.
people like that first craft stuff
Recrafting is also cheap too if using tier 2 mats
these lariat crafters asking for 30k comm. so based
Do it the smart way
the way i did it, was to make a publich order for lariat
then asked for a recraft for 10k
If I use echoing reprimand and I have shiv up shortly, should I hold to use the animacharges for the shiv window?
some crazy french rogue was using the fall damage boots from shadowlands for his raz kill lol, did 150k damage.
damn I've never heard of anybody doing that
I'm surprised it worked, more power to him.
how's the Wow Analyzer for reviewing logs? Just got our first Mythic terros (yeee) but my log was GARBO (neeeee)
We’re doing that
Instantly kills first add shield
If you have the whole group doing it
Its kinda common that every engineer does that yea. It dont share cd with anything just free dmg
!fuu

I've just been doing heroic prog with some guild, wasn't aware it was the play lol.
are you looking at the damage of the deathmark dot itself?

that's so mentally ill
jesus
I mean they are french
I was just looking at what spec performs best, had a laugh when I found it.
Dratnos also recommends it in his rasza "guide"
and free dps is free dps so you take it
this iteration of sin in m+ is miles better than SL for example

it's insanely sweaty
i was talking about details but i guess details is just showing the damage of mark itself
and in sim its taking all the damage from the dots and combining it into mark
correct
i was also talking about that (or logs. same deal)
the damage from the Deathmark dot itself is insignificant
what you wanna look at is your bleeds and poisons being doubled at the time

our tank DCd with all brez up and everyone alive... 9% health on kurog
going into frost at like 27% hp

help i am being consumed by maplestory
we'll kill it sunday i'm sure 
did you ever play runescape?
seems like that was a big divide, then people moved onto wow
i was a runescaper, but after trying a bunch of different games i am very much not a fan of the click to move thing
Yeah I get that for sure. I just watch youtubers instead of playing.
compress 500 hours of gameplay into a 15 minute video nbd
if it's at 9% it's already dead
frost phase is easy mode
would probably share a CD w/ battle pot
yeah frost very cozy
but people panicing
running around gettin frozen
need a couple more good looks at it and it should be ez kill
we got into p1 intermission with boss at like 59% with no mage or druid buffs
so dmg no problemo
My RL wants me to not save CDs for add on 2nd platform on Dathea, and just use everything on Dathea
what do
I argued that it's better to kill that add. dathea will die.
but then he shown me this
bruh. what are mages even.
Has anyone experienced just not getting the shroud heal absorb on broodkeeper? Started progging today and I straight up just don't get the debuff
Figure it might have something to do with our new talent 'reducing' the duration
you're there for boss dam
you dont need to save cds for the big add
i'm confused cause i've been told here that i should go 2nd platform so i'll have CDs there
Send cds on boss
i go 2nd platform also
Never cd an add as sin
it should be around 3 mins in
so you shouldve fully finished your cds on boss by then
no you wont
you'll come down before 4 mins
which is when you'd send 2nd exsang
I guess you just get 2 casts that fight?
ye
Yeah +1 cast
that 3rd set of cds is scuffed
W
you dont even get all of it
so platform you just sit on big add FoK>envenom and
for PBs?
you are only aiming to do dam to the infuser
so do w.e you gotta do for that
you do get it
it just doesn't show on the logs under debuffs for rogue for some reason
if u look at damage taken it's there
Guys i am 405 and my buddy is 402 and he did way more than me at brood, can someone tell me what I did wrong?
He is strider
So i was kinda unlucky i think brood targeted me ligthning many times
Also had to go adds at some point and lose lil bit but thats all
start with learning your opener
your teammate lost a whole deathmark so you're messing a lot up yea
this is jsut a wowanalyzer angle
True i have to focus on there
merry christmas
also check the wrong guys opener your friend is also doing it wrong XD
Wow its so good
Yep need to learn basics first, like opener and combo point stuff
Like i shall use my finishers at max-1 like how faq says i generally go above for max
rip your friend, forgot to dm the first exsang
Basics are good
get your opener right first, i mean it's minor but always will be the same.
but more importantly is getting the dots maxxed for exsang timing, and also making sure vanished garrote is on for death mark every 2 mins
You cant waste too many cp if you always go max-1
Except for seal fate
Potentially
Yep I mean if i am at -1 i should use my finisher instead of trying max with mutilate which awards 2 points so i wasted 1
ye he's just saying it's usually even more than that
because seal fate
you can be at 5, hit a mut, and waste 3
True apparently i was mixing no exsang opener at exsang talent and mixing shit up
also i would try swap that order
puzzle before the vanish garotte or after the exsang
Is exsang also for aoe or st?
@balmy condor is the build for Kurog the same now these adds die much faster?
Your build for Kurog*
Yeah so seal fate is a special case if you review your log down the line. Having many wasted cp on seal fate isnt your fault in most cases
Having wasted cp on builders might be tho
I can see that, no need to build up fo snd, envenom gonna buff its duration
that order is fine
just single target
yep and because you are gonna reapply a anima charged rupture you also dont need max dur on first cast
@balmy condor exsang build?
whatever you play in single target
Mut hits twice (both hands)
And it may crit twice. With seal fatex each crit also gains you a CP.
So mut gives 2-4 CP.
Your sbs is wrong tho and I usually puzzle after ER before 7cp rup, but puzzle is whatever
Ok, smash kurog and dot big adds
ye
And you use potion after dm
yeah i never know whether to sbs, shiv anything there or not, and it doesn't matter too much so do it anyway
And with tea in opener?
Tea on shiv
potion with dm better acktuahlkllyl
Yeah actually. I have it macroed for the opener, true
Is the tea in opener just for the mastery buff?
I go garote-snd-garote-rup-echo-rupture-sbs-vanish-garrote-exsang-puzzlebox-dm-envenom?!-shiv-tea
And to not sit on cap
yeah, you're capped on charges so you might as well use it
sounds great (didn't read)
Whisp do you still drop exang for CT with the ST build if you just want CT for some cleave or burst aoe?
(Ie thinking of a dathea build)
I feel my problem is that i burn tea too fast so I sometimes sit on 0 for 10-20 seconds
but same concept
And never get back to 2 stacks
why is that a problem
Energy starving is no fun gived us rage xd
In 1st min or a bit more i burn all 3
Or maybe it’s the play to just go the non bleed ST build at that point if you’re dropping exang for CT?
would you not pb after dm or before vanish garrote so that you aren't just chilling on 2 seconds of exsang without dm
Do we replace our garrote/rupture at exsang dm period when they are at last 3-4 sec?
I dont know, it feels bad so that why I typed ‘i feel’ 😂
ok is it me or does every other class get buff and we've been left in the dust.
exsang'd dots you let tick to 0
I see
other classes got a buff because they were left in our dust
Is exsang also for aoe or only st?
were 
you play it everywhere if you're trying to be optimal
Alright thank you
Tea can also be used as opener right ?
If you wanna be optimal you need an exsang tattoo
it should be used in opener, yes
@balmy condor how about an Exsang Arschgeweih? 
Hahahahahahha
man I just want assassination to either have clear answers to questions so I can just say "faq"
that's my dream
"CT or Envenom in aoe"
doesn't matter
IMPOSSIBLE
sigh
"What stat breakpoints"
there are none, just get stats
IMPOSSIBLE
sigh
I mean lets be honest for real
Are there any classes
With real breakpoints you care for?
Frost has 1 iirc and they still tell people to sim
Dunno where people still pick up that concept
the last time there was a stat breakpoint was spriest during legion
cus you needed like 8million haste for the specs optimal dps rotiation to function cus of voidform worked
but thats it lol
I have a strong urge to play survival hunter somehow
People just seem to think there's some magical haste or crit number for assassination to enter exodia mode but they usually haven't played it since bfa
idk man, im somewhat sure assa is very strong with 100% crit and 100% haste
That reminds me of those wonderful times in Sanctum where I had 99% crit in MA window and still only got 2 cp from muti several times. Glorious
Having the urge to hurt yourself isnt good
Anyone doing log reviews
Yeah solving a puzzlebox while fighting 173882 years old ancient titan to become 5head for 20 sec
I cant remember people complaining that much about DoS which was in all honesty worse to use
Even using MA on it
Engine of eradication wasnt a banger either
People have just always not enjoyed channel trinkets for whatever reason
It's really not bad at all to me but whatevs
The only trinket I ever really enjoyed was soul capacitor, so I cant say I enjoy trinkets in general
They are just whatever
But DoS basically was a channel
Well tbh even worse since it actually locked you in place
I am not complaining but while attacking a huge entity pulling out an rubix cube and solving is funny to think xd
My favorite trinkets that I've gotten to play with so far in my wow career was razor coral + inkpod
But yeah trinkets are kinda whatever. They're nice but also I feel like they aren't as interesting as they could be
Zero hate pb kekw
I think channeled trinkets that have visual appeal make them satisfying to press,
I can’t stand stopping pressing my rogue abilities to solve a rubix cube for 2s mid combat feels clunky
People say grieftorch is fun to use not that I have one
It is actually fun
Dude, our rogues are real gigabrains, like, solving a rubix cube in 2seconds
gigachad
Grieftorch is fun to spam when people are dying
The channel has nothing to do with it
1s
Well I assume the channel doesn’t feel as bad when you’re shooting fire everywhere
The channel is irrelevant imo
its fun and despair at once, cus you know the wipe call comes 2sec later
Nobody would care if you stood and shot yellow piss lazers for 2s. If you get to do it more frequently people would like it
People just dont like pressing something that doesnt deal visible damage is probably the issue
What?
How does pressing a trinket more frequently make it fun?
....because it does?
So if you cast puzzle box every 30s you’d find it more fun?

Ah okay well my opinion on what’s fun isn’t damage go up but it’s subjective
If grieftorch didn't do damage nobody would think it was fun
Mines more on aesthetics and feedback when you hit the button
Sounds/animations/change in gameplay
I mean fair enough. People play lost ark so I get it
Did you find the benthic procs fun?
Lost ark 
Benthic procs were so annoying to get to that I think all fun was sucked out by the time people got them
I'm just saying the vast majority of people who play don't care as much about aesthetic as they do whether or not said thing does damage
Bigger number bigger fun ooga booga
I do care about aesthetics
But I accepted that they arent as good as they could be
Nor as good as in some other games

Yeah I should preface that this is all within reason
A certain amount of aesthetic is required for enjoyment
I like huge build ups with a satisfying crit.. feel like i am describing a warlock
Bro out here wanting 2 seconds channel on snd
I guess mythic cct and icon isn't great combo for assa right? I'm sub main and my DMG with assa is just not good as I though would be
Icon is very good and likely your third best trinket option after grieftorch
Nah, I'm just asking. I saw everyone running puzzle box on brood
But sin does rely on puzzle box a good bit
Puzzle box gives crazy value to your cooldown windows
loved it
Both cct and icon is great for sin, but as mentioned puzzle is a big step upwards. So I guess its just to limit your expectations?
Although unironically sub is fine for brood as well, if thats the main concern
My Sims are lower for assa than sub too, I'm running very low haste and some bit of versa
Yeah I know that, but my guild is kinda stubborn about assa= best single
And not having anything to press with death mark
weird management
Im having issues understanding the logic behind it, at some point the guild has to trust you to make the right decisions, especially if you can show sub does comparable bossdam as assa
Well see, thanks
you need a puzzle box
Do you guys play assa on every boss in Vault or do you swap to sub on some?
i play subtlety on every fight, but we have quite a lot that play assa on every fight
is atrophic poison stronger on assa compared to other specs?

Yo sin is fun af in keys
Didn't expect to do so well in trash packs
Do you tell ppl you are sin when getting in to keys, or do you keep it a secret
Is it bad mannered to be assassination in keys 🤔
No?
id say 9/10 groups won't give a shit
No rogue spec is bad in keys
at like +20/+21 level at least
there's always that one pug that goes "sin? weird"
and that's kinda the end of it
Dam I'm tryna do 22s, unlucky
then why you asking us lmao
I had someone tell me I was trolling there key after first pull when they seen I was playing sin and later apologized after the key when I had top dmg. All 3 specs are great
Idk I just feel guilty, I've been outlaw, but I enjoy sin more, was curious the perception on it
then play sin
yeh it just odd that someone close to 3k doesn't know the perception to begin with is all
maybe that's just me
but idk
living in a bubble like that is real weird
Ye, I'm ignorant as fuck
anyway yeh sin is good, just doesn't see a lot of play cause it eventually doesn't keep up and there's no high end streamer singing its praises for people to parrot
Yo can someone tell me why it says nelf as best race for alliance ass rogue ? for pvp
You know what your next job is
nah pushing keys just ain't fun
Oh missed that channel, cheers
there's also a brand new #pvp-faq channel, its real good
what weekly keys
thanks dude will have a suss

Ok so does shadowmeld into skills while in combat, benefeicial for pve too ?
only on dungeon trash
you look at that sim
and then tell me with a straight face to do keys
75% catalyst shit, daggers to be replaced with diurna, 0.4% from a puzzle box

trying to get me into a 20 nokhud so I can wipe on explosives for 40 minutes
for maybe something I can catalyst for 300 dps
that's despairge
Now you made me feel like a slave of the system
I could get 6 ilvl on 3 pieces + 3 on dagger
And I still grind
you don't want life advice from me
But we all do
but yeh dunno
blizzard goes
no endless grind
you can do your thing and then GG
and I'm like
great
I'll do that
the best part of dragonflight is that I don't have to play it as my only game
I'd prolly still do atleast 4, but thats no real investment
Early tier aside
😁
and I will enjoy doing it for the items I need
Im fine with the dungeons rn, not sure about brackenhide and uldaman tho 
the trinkets all look sus from the dungeons not in the m0 rotation
irideus fragment
well a low proc summon a gnoll from brackenhide
that has a chance to stun something
which could be bad
AoE on use stacking shard thing from halls
Fragment and angerboda kinda look good tho
maw
o yeah plenty of good old trinkets
I miss my dice
did they announce next m+ rotation? or just speculation
no announcement
Cant wait if they listen to the people that want dungeons from before m+ in the rotation
i mean they know which ones people like
Will surely be tuned nicely
i just hope they don't try to like... use seasonal affix to try to force us to like dungeons that we didn't used to like
just give us the bangers
seat of the triumvate, cathedral of the night(release version), shrine of the storms, siege of broalus(alliance version), siege of niuanzo temple brackenhide hollow, neltharus with its 900000000 party dmg and the shit titan water temple
bring it on blizzard
that's just eye of command
i dont rember that one
upper kara
i'm just window shoping in the dungeon journal
o 
egg shell from darkheart thicket probably gud
i honestly think it'd be interesting to have one of the wing dungeons get reworked into an m+ dungeon. though with our luck its just gonna be brd
do u want a chance to proc haste for 20 seconds. or just have more crit for the rest of the boss 
we already dont
that things shit
they don't
worse thing about it is
all the people comming to discord asking if "does the bleed work with X"
just another day in here
seems like a reasonable question that someone would have that would be easily answered in an FAQ section that people would definitely read

yeah
like puzzle box
that worked out great
I even have it marked in the openers
don't worry, it is the same for subtlety too
i could see them bringing out something from tbc for m+
please god no
stormstout brewery or riot
lol
it was pretty mediocre
the set bonus made it good
but you didn't play it
cause the neck is like 83209489080752348095 vers

did assassination recieve any changes as of late? just looking at logs and they seem to be doing good this week
mkay
no trinket or dagger in stormstout 
Just bring back CoF from NH 
yeh
everything around us gets buffed
and we get a week 1 nerf
and then a neutral dps change in 10.0.5
and then nothing
poggggggggggggggg
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/statistics/31#sample=7&difficulty=4
this is what I saw but yeah I agree with you
guess thats what happens when you get bonked 3 times to be the same as everybody else, then everybody else gets buffed 😄

"look guys it's good in heroic"
cant buff us after they nerfed us 3x
that would make it look like they dont know what theyre doing
or that some of the initial nerfs were too much
cause heroic gets blasted
why is there such a big difference
heroic is literally just boss damage
all the way through
and assassination is still pretty good at just afking on a boss for 2 minutes
mythic has more off-boss stuff yea
ST is still up there with the best no?
Adds dont really exist on Heroic so its more about bossdmg than everything else. I'll also reckon that the average rogue is better informed than the average mage or warlock on how to play their class, so they get more out of their total dps potential, thus looking better by comparison
also fight timers for some of the stuff don't line up great for sin
lol thats a stupid take
no it isn't
Is it?
rogue players are better than mage players?
better informed
so you're saying it's all whispyrs fault for theory crafting too well
and warlock?
We've had fully optimized sims with only minor APL and sim improvements since release, other classes stil dont have fully functional APLs
its not a skill thing
probably have people speccing aoe for fights with aoe in heroic then the adds die in 0.25 seconds
it's a knowledge diff
warlocks a great example actually
it's more than just the discord
i hung out in black harvest a lot in legion and there was plenty of knowledgable people
also a meme factory
idk about now
at least the affliction people were
since in SL their apl was straight broken for uh, venthyr? and turns out fixing that revealed it to be a great dps option that they just weren't using before because it looked bad
There you go. Why is that? Why are conversations on the rogue discord "higher level" than on others? We have 3 different websites with high profile players and very theorycrafted invested people writing guides and providing information. We don't gatekeep any of our sims or information.
they tell us everything so they can make fun of us for not knowing anything 
Why are the high-level players of other classes vastly outperforming the "regular" guy? Could have smth to do with them actually doing their own theorycrafting or being good enough players to figure out how to play optimally, while the regular joe doesnt.
All of that plays a part in how well informed the general playerbase for each spec is, and in our case that simply means that most rogues kinda know how to play the game and perform well
I think the skill level is quite evenly distributed amongst the classes
I remember wording of ”Assa getting a lot of attention, hence the nerf” I took it to block class stacking for wfr. But that sucks really
I fixed it for them and all those destro fucks still played fae
I think generally available class knowledge kind of gets rolled up into average skill level
not like wow is a mechanically intesive game compared to like a starcraft or FPS
so i'd still say if we have more good proven knowledge
then average skill of rogue probably higher
what socket i put in the lariat ?
Int

it's super hard playing sin wdym?
I first have to maintain everything
then I have to hit everything on cooldown
then I'm brain dead so I have to read the list again
I remember my guilds WL complaining about having to argue with the WL discord people how broken demo was towards the end of nathria already, but it didnt sim well so people were gaslighting him - despite warcraftlogs already showing that well-played demolock was absolutely insane.
Then some day they had an APL improvement that led to like a 15 or 20% DPS increase and suddenly "oh wow demo is good"
i remember the week they finally accepted demo was busted
Its almost as if
my GM swapped and acted like they cracked the code
Community perception always ducked
they being the warlock discord kek
Well yeah, but its also just an active effort to make the class look less good than it is
Bruh
Whispyr you alright?
@lapis mirage its not abkut the skill, its ablut the quality of information, and rogue is BY FAR the #1 in that
warlock apl behind a paywall btw
warlock apl not using venthyr ability in dungeons for aoe for ages btw

I just love ducks man
*hunter
i mean, both
yo same fam
this my discord
we have merch
u want beanie?
Warlocks adapted that way of handing out theorycrafting?
cant wait for the assa apl hidden behind a whisp onlyfans account
but then everyone has acces to it anyway
and by merch i mean i got like 12 beanies printed and gave them to my friends 
we should adopt the tettles approach I think
Bruh what, sir?
What. Complain on twitter and in podcasts, while having no tc or sims to back it up?
When boomies lot their cast while moving stuff, they became unplayable, dog shit
that the bird guy?
no that's step 2, step 1 is saying you're gonna theorycraft a spec, then you don't, and then you swap to a hunter
If Assa is anything but C tier or lower in any tierlist on wowhead or Blizzard Maximums stream ever again, I'll hold you personally responsible for the lack of buffs.
"there's some new build that spams wrath in lunar eclipse. let me pull up some sims." - proceeds to provide no information or follow up
All the ducks lagged my discord :D
hahahaha
this was all "discovered" a week before boomkin changes
can you tell dratnos to answer my dm next time he says a tier set is 100% damage during vendetta
instead of ghosting me
I have no power over the man
You got outchad'ed
Yeah but I don't use my power that way
yes, its mr"boomkin is ALWAYS weak, even if it is stacked 4x in a raid and top m+ option, i make twitter posts on a daily basis that all say boomkin is weak and all my braindead followers parrot me" 
cant you tell that guy to tell the other guy to tell dratnos to answer my dms
Just take the L whispyr
Also mby rogue gamers are better overall cause only chads plsy rogue
he rather takes the D
You're just jealous he has all the drip and clout, and you don't
thats what i heard lmao
Making it through leveling as a rogue definitely requires a bit of mental fortitude that classes like boomkin or warlock seem to lack
Pala hunter is like 2x our representation
apply garrote -> go to next mob
we are mostly memeing mate
rogues cant be smart or skilled cus outlaw drags the average down by a crazy amount
Once you've endured leveling as a rogue, you're already invested enough that you actually read up on stuff to make it work

you now do 900dmg every 2seconds to a mob, congratz
i feel like i'm cheating when i level other toons
I guess you could say they really anchor down the average 
I know this to be true cause 90% of r-word filter hits come from outlaw
I can kill 3 things at once 
Outlaw OTPs are a special breed
8.1 DH players that never left 🙂
I refuse to believe natural selection allowed such a breed
darwin was wrong
Life finds a way
