# keen spruce this is shocking news to me ngl

How? Rogue’s always been unfavorable since back in Vanilla (unless talking pvp bcuz lul evis in vanilla); people just don’t like the energy managing, the odd resource, and back in those days there was a shitton of complaining on EJ and the blizz forums. It’s also one-dimensional in that you can only dps unlike other classes with odd resources who can fulfill multiple roles.

hi guys, i know kingsbane isn't recommended atm, is this rotation still relevant for dtb+IC mythic + pulls though?(minus the kingsbane obv)

balmy condor
#

yup

mental flower
#

Thank you, where you would ideally puzzlebox in that if you were to use?

balmy condor
#

whenever it's comfortable

mental flower
#

appreciated, that takes some pressure off 🙂

#

i like saving puzzle box for next xpac in my keys apparently :D

#

one day ill press it on the lust pull for hov

balmy condor
#

I just don't use it in m+

royal lantern
#

i mean, the general rule of thmb in m+ is

#

dont really hold stuff

#

holding a cd/trinket for 2min cus you want it for a boss is probs less gain then just using it for trash and then a bit later in the bossfight again peeposhrug

normal mist
#

So my raid group finally started progging raz HC, in a night we managed to get to the 3rd platform. But only the tanks actually landed there XD

#

Our groups got smaller and our dps is still... Bad

#

I had to switch to m+ talents so my group could be able to clean adds in 2nd platform

#

Which is, obviously, not optimal

#

Aight rant over

timber basalt
#

Have someone else spec for aoe, some hunter or smth

#

Or go sub

#

Mister Whispyr, you know some times i come to rant about my raiding group, and boy it got worse

#

I just swap to CCT for m+ personally

#

Puzzle is annoying for m+

normal mist
timber basalt
#

yea so you should just sit full st and get carried on aoe

normal mist
#

Well yes, but actually no xD

#

It's fine, copium they will learn how to properly okay their class soon copium so it isn't a problem

timber basalt
#

i don't think it's your problem to solve

#

so there's no reason to gimp yourself

balmy condor
#

Bros playing a council fight every boss

#

His raid is just more mini bosses

if they can't kill adds there is a bigger problem

I'm sure your raid team will figure out how to aoe eventually

distant meteor
#

Hey all I've been having trouble missing some of my anima cp sometimes when im at say 3 and need to get to 4 and hit shiv ill get to 5. IM guessing this is because of seal fate. any way I can avoid this from happening?

shut owl
#

if you're not in opener/vanish windows you can use garrote for a 1 pointer; otherwise its rng

distant meteor
#

so the pandemic window is less important than hitting the anima point

shut owl
#

I didn't say that. I also don't know the math on that.

#

but if you anima charge is 45 seconds, and your garrote is 18, you're prolly gonna use garrote in the anima charge times no?

distant meteor
#

yeah that makes sense

#

thanks 🙂

shut owl
#

2+2 is 4 minus 1 thats 3

Yw

#

No need to thank me

#

There is meaning in nothingness

balmy condor
#

You do not play around the animacharges more than “I am on an animacharge point, therefore I will finish”

#

That’s the only thing that you do with them

#

If blue = finish

#

Otherwise ER every 45 seconds and play as you would

If my crit's boosted and I refresh normal garrote I usually use poison knife to get the 2nd blue if I know anima will expire.

#

Do you guys think assa needs a buff or a „rework“ for aoe or burst aoe or whatever. For pure st we are Fine i think but add Fights idk i feel lost 😩

#

I mean in warcraftlogs all fights we are Bad only terros seems fine

#

@subtle tundra What trinkets were you using in that 99 council?

subtle tundra

You mean 100

#

Ohh I just saw... Boon

Yea

#

Hc boon

pseudo hamlet
tacit otter
#

imagine having hc boon, sadge. still running only 99s with hungering + puzzle

subtle tundra
#

Buddy it has been 2 months

#

Since raid release

#

It's not like having a hc item from the 4yh boss is rare

oak tangle
#

i think that we should not be buffing classes so that they can do aoe and st in all situation, we should be nerfing all the classes that CAN do that, game is more fun when you have to change build around for different content because it makes you have some thought

tacit otter
subtle tundra
#

I doubt

pseudo hamlet
subtle tundra
#

It barely matters what trinket you havr

#

There's like 5 good trinkets

#

Get 2

tacit otter
#

i've seen couple icons on heroic + mythic. but the rest nop

subtle tundra
#

I severely doubt

tacit otter
#

my best 2nd st trinket was the world boss trinket before i got hc grieftorch from vault this week

oak tangle
#

i am geared to the teeth from heroic, but what is troll is killing broodkeeper, dropping 2 evoker staves. and not having an evoker in your group

#

I think the Tea on AP actually makes quite a diff to lethality

grim jay
#

I might be wrong, how did we lose ST with M+ build compared to before (KB + IC) if DTB was the prefered ST m+ variant even before

wind dune
grim jay
wind dune
#

Yees

#

No

#

I mean

nocturne current
#

I think, for sure, I can't imagine DTB without blindside, except if you're talented IC

#

The old DTB m+ build was just the normal raid with crimson variant I think

grim jay
#

I really cant remember tbf

nocturne current
#

But I think the ST difference isn't really that huge

#

maybe a bit in tyranical if the boss has high execution uptime

wind dune
#

Oh shit yea that abomination build it was suggested before for tyran yea

#

The no ic build is what it was lmao

We got mythic terros (yay). My log was horrific, but my WowAnalyzer insights don't match up on how garbo my log was. I did fat finger and not Exsang my last Deathmark, but I'm really shitting the bed still.

Any tips for common areas to look for improvement? Just tryna get better

tacit otter
#

most common areas are: dont waste cp, dont overcap energy, use cooldowns on cd, use exsang with brain

#

but these are things wowanalyzer probably already told you:)

subtle tundra
#

well i cant anyways i cant read

brazen zodiac
#

but u can press buttons rly well

#

:D

scenic kelp
royal lantern
#

but blizz showed that they dont want that

#

cus some specs always do everything good

#

aka when fire does good st, its also a aoe monster

#

when dh is strong, its automaticaly a aoe monster

#

when fury is strong, it does great aoe aswell cus it has auto cleave, same with outlaw usw.....

#

"you need to chose bettwen ST or AoE, cant do both" doesnt work cus there are many specs that dont have those restrictions

#

and other have them and tend to be mediocre cus of it quiet often

#

honestly, every single "your Singletarget dmg translates into AoE" mechanic is flawed as hell and a huge balance painpoint imo

where dem varas mythic logs lul

green apex
#

How much impact do log lengths have? Our Mythic terros kill was .... 6:30 lol

nocturne current
#

A would say a bit depending on the phases, but I was looking into some averages anyway

subtle tundra
#

I don't think i have a single public log on mythic since nyotha

nocturne current
#

Ah, no worries then 🙂

subtle tundra
#

Nobody knows if I'm good or not

#

I just type

nocturne current
#

I just wanted to check a lethality build output

gaunt moat
#

quite a lot.
You usually have very high DPS burst at the start of combat, which falls off gradually, so very short fight durations will have higher DPS

other than that, it would depend how the fight length aligned with you CDs
if it's 2 minutes fight, your CDs won't be available yet.
if it's 2:40~ fight, you're right after using CDs, so you'll have higher DPS

we don't play around EP at all

#

don't you double garrote?

gaunt moat
#

Correct. but you didn't raise your hand, so i'm sending you to the principle.

limpid ermine
#

im sorry I disappointed you and just blurted my answer out in front of the class 😔

green apex
#

ty matthew i was going to fail

#

didnt realize that was during the vanish as well

gaunt moat
#

@green apex
Optimally, you don't need to mutilate twice and rupture before those CDs, it's enough to have some rupture in pandemic
then vanish -> Garrote X 2 -> rupture

green apex
#

derp derp

scenic kelp
#

I dream about a Talent That gives us Instant garrote and rupture on 3 targets without a cooldown (only the garrote cd) what do you think about?

gaunt moat
#

giving sin a proper cleave??
not in my dragonflight!

limpid ermine
#

A talent like replicating shadows in sub would be very cool 🙂

scenic kelp
#

Y but not like this if we have IC not on a cd i think we dont do that much dmg like other classes in aoe or?

#

Idk im pissed about the state of assa Atm no fun to Play and no fun to Play sub or outlaw ☹️

gaunt moat

I disagree that it's not fun to play
i really like the gameplay
the damage though...

default sims assume you have all raid buffs

if you're simming for target dummy, are you doing it for exactly 5 min or "sustaining" for much longer/shorter?

#

Just do 9% of your damage from a trinket classic

sudden canyon
#

how does exang work? is it a buff on us (like how dk's plague bringer works) or does it actually modify the dots we have on the target

gaunt moat
#

it makes bleed go BRR
(tick twice as fast)

keen spruce
#

it's more like a buff on the currently applied bleeds

Any log reviewers

keen spruce

#

yes

keen spruce
#

no clipping exang bleeds

gaunt moat
#

also, Deathmark is a bleed. don't use exsang AFTER or it will shorten it. use before.

sudden canyon
keen spruce
#

yeah so does boomkin

sudden canyon
#

we should get that

keen spruce
#

yeah we should Madge

#

but we don't so we don't clip

nah, we should have a 3 min cooldown.

#

Exsang on 3 min cd is so weird

#

Like why does it have a longer cooldown than deathmark

because it would be broken if it sync'd with every deathmark

And that was kinda it

gaunt moat

this is the new opener


Pull: Start the encounter by using your Stealth ability (e.g. Stealth) and immediately use your Ambush ability to deal a large amount of initial damage.

Rotation: After the Ambush, continue to use your abilities in the following priority:
a. Keep Rupture (or Garrote) up at all times for its damage over time effect.
b. Use Mutilate or Dispatch when they are off cooldown and the target is below 35% health.
c. Use Envenom when it's available and you have 3 or more combo points.
d. Use Vendetta for increased damage and increased energy regeneration.

Cooldowns: Use your cooldowns (e.g. Vendetta, Shadow Blades) to increase your damage output and reduce the amount of damage you take.

Repeat: Repeat the rotation until the target is defeated.```

Knowledge of Discord: Moderators should have a strong understanding of how Discord works, including its features and limitations.

Communication skills: Moderators should be able to communicate clearly and effectively, both in writing and in voice chat.

Conflict resolution: Moderators should be able to handle difficult situations and conflicts in a calm and professional manner.

Familiarity with the server's rules and community: Moderators should have a good understanding of the server's rules and the community's culture, and be able to enforce them fairly and consistently.

Availability: Moderators should be available to devote a significant amount of time to the role, including monitoring the server and responding to issues as they arise.

Trustworthiness: Moderators should be trusted members of the community who have demonstrated a commitment to the server's goals and values.

Additionally, some servers may require moderators to have specific experience or expertise related to the server's focus or theme. For example, a server focused on a specific game may require moderators to have extensive knowledge of that game.

I'm sure it's been posted but what's the opener for dtb when you have box and grieftorch...I assume box is still after exang?

#

After 64 runs of AA finally got my box

balmy condor
#

Yep box with CDs

delicate berry
#

Just wasn't sure where to use the torch? I assume after DM?

royal lantern
#

yes

#

torch after DM and then on CD

#

never during DM

#

you want to use the GCD's during DM on other stuff

What if your raiders are bad and reliably die within the first 20 seconds

no

Some Sin rogue in the guild I joined who's a sin rogue main. I defaulted to him because I played Sub almost exclusively

Never default to him again

everyone freakin out about positioning and fulminating and grip blasts and winds

#

we just ignore every mechanic with like 2 buttons KEKPog

#

how do you guys practice consistency? as i review my logs and compare them to others the biggest thing i see that shows up in play style is they are more consistent and clean and as im looking at analyzer i may have 10ish "bad" envenoms and most top performers have maybe 3 or 4. so how do i practice outside of our raid nights i find myself overwhelmed sometimes and will drop the ball in terms of my rotation and i know experience and comfort in times of stress comes from familiarity and doing over and over again, but has anyone found any habits the help build the comfort in ur rotation so you dont have to think about it and can just keep rolling and focus ur brain on the mechanics coming in not the abiltys ur pushing out?

keen spruce
#

I mean it's mostly repetition

#

it's a combination of getting your rotation down to second nature

#

and getting very comfortable with the encounters

#

you can always just sit on a target dummy while talking to your friends in discord or something

#

try to add some distractions

#

or target swap to a different dummy for like 5 seconds randomly with like an alarm clock or something

#

and make sure it doesn't screw up your rotation on the original target

#

but that can all be very brain melting and boring

#

i think for most people it's just playing a lot. go do raid pugs if you want more practice with the bosses

#

try to find places to stand during a fight that will minimize it's affect on your rotation. like on sennarth for example I always stand in the exact same place for each ability if i'm able to

#

also you can record yourself with like OBS or something even if you don't stream

#

so you can review your fights. or you the replay system in warcraftlogs if you don't wanna do that

acoustic chasm
#

At least Im doing more dmg on ST than Sub

oak pulsar
#

oh i didnt know about the replay thing in logs that is super useful i have been thinking about reviewing my gameplay to notice exactly where my problem areas are llike ill get overwhelmed at this point so need to learn to anticipate and have a plan etc, i think my first goal is making sure my rotation is second nature and every rule is hammered in at this point

keen spruce
#

yeah replay tool very helpful. it's just a top down view with little icons for everyone

#

so it takes some getting used to

#

it's a balance tho

#

fight knowledge and comfort level helps my parses way more at this point. takes a bit of both

digital onyx
#

It's great in showing the FOV for a selected player too

gaunt moat
#

@oak pulsar
even very skilled players fuck up, everyone's human
the nature of seeing the top log, is that you get to see the time they were at their best
but it's mostly repetition.

let's take the opener for example
when you just start, you may fuck it up 7 out of 10 times.
but eventually, doing it over and over, you'll remember the sequence because it's always the same.

the same goes to for raid encounters.
usually the harder bosses can take from 50 to 150+ pulls to kill.
eventually you learn exactly when to do, you stop panicking, and it becomes auto-pilot.

oak tangle

A good tip if you don’t have it, is to have the 5th and 6th combo points a different colour with a uni or weakaura. Helps let you know when to finish and not. Also for the most part pressing buttons isn’t all that time sensitive. If you’re not overcapping on energy you can wait that second to check if you are in cp finisher range

keen spruce
#

often better to press nothing than press wrong thing

oak tangle
#

It mostly comes down to familiarity and planning. “My garrotte is at 7 seconds left, I’m at 5 cp” you can preempt you’ll be able to get that 6th cp from a garrotte refresh

keen spruce
#

this is very common too

#

comes down to reps and comfy levels

thx this is all helping alot i think i have been putting a lot of stress on myself cause im in my first mythic guild and there is another sin rogue who has been playing a lot longer then me and has mythic raided before and im not improving at the same rate as i did so it has felt a little bit like spinning my wheels

the only reason i did good on him today is because of

Unless you're talking just heroic

I think less adds in heroic so def less pad

keen spruce

don't think the fight is long enough in heroic

to hit 90k

balmy condor
#

ye

keen spruce
#

long enough in execute

balmy condor
#

90k on mythic is doable though

#

90k heroic is rough

gaunt moat

there's only 10 players in the world who got above 90k on heroic kurog

i wouldn't call that very doable

At what point would stacking shamans and routinely sacking them to ankh for grief spam is a strat

impossible to get good log without WF 🥴

depends on what u mean by good

u can get big orange w/o windfury

ebon notch

you can get 99s without windfury

less realistic tho

#

do you want me to get over all top 100 logs?

that was my goal

but lolae keeps fucking me

we had a shaman join raid today
we told him to talent WF

he left.

lmao

keen spruce

I just did some quick mafs. If you had a group with 20 shams. Each popping 250k grief torches and sacking every 30s to ankh, you’d do 100mil in grief damage.

Over 10 mins

maybe 1 tank

18 sham

#

1 juicer

that wants to parse

you gotta have every single person with a grieftorch

and you gotta make sure that you kill the boss with said grieftorches

very similar imo

no other two specs are more alike than those

what

steel ridge
#

if you want to argue for the sake of arguing, i am not in the mood

#

mut = shred

#

rake = garrote

#

rip = rupture

#

swipe = fok

#

bite = envenom

#

primal wrath = ct

#

do i need to continue?

#

feral charge = step

#

maim = kidney shot

#

tigers fury = shiv

strange python
#

im playing alt feral after this

steel ridge
#

its basically the same template of a spec, it plays basically the same but with more QoL like smart rake and reliable bite aoe

tacit oracle
#

There's some differences, but it'd be pepega if one were to say they aren't similar.

balmy condor
#

yeah feral is just sin rogue in cat form 90% of the time

#

but it makes sense

steel ridge
#

see

balmy condor
#

unlike this god forsaken spec

steel ridge
#

did tryan just choke?

tacit oracle
#

When I play a lot of Asn I usually have a Feral I play a lot and vice versa. I always really like having similar abilities for hotkey reasons, but the talents usually give them some playstyle differences.

steel ridge
#

you can just use the same hotkeys, its true

tacit oracle
#

Hell, Bloodtalons is one of the biggest talents for playstyle change within the Feral spec, let alone comparing it to another spec.

steel ridge
#

blood talons is advanced tech, you can just go the other option and be more than fine

#

the biggest advantage feral has over sin is that berserker is an actual cd

#

that does really well on aoe

tacit oracle
#

I'm used to using it more often than not. 😸

steel ridge
#

while deathmark does nothing on aoe

and feral doesnt need carnage to do big aoe bleed pump

it just does it

is 1 garrote 1 rupture the bare minimum for energy

the bare minimum in aoe is around 4

#

and you're saturated at 6

opal elm

so you would actually put 4 bleeds up before crimson tempest

thats why the opener is like that, yes
