#assassination

Because the sigils far oversim and aren't as strong as they appear afaik
Don't trust the deck sims
The Shuffle mechanic is fairly overvalued on sims
Is that a full kill?
Then It's probably the splash dmg in baby elementals and p2 minions
So do you guys think I should use my 408 kurog trinket over the 418 deck
Totally
For pretty much every boss that isn’t full st, yes
But 418 deck with ember scale sigil is not bad at all
Is competitive, but It's probably on par or slightly behind your trinkets on sims
It's real value is if you haven't got the raid trinkets still
can i actually apply amplifying poison + deadly poison + atrophic poison at the same time?
during deathmark, can i refresh bleeds during pandemic? i used vanish-garrot-garrot before deathmark
Blind, arcane torrent
Idk do you have blind up often enoigh
what about after hitting exsanguinate, can i refresh garrot / rupture during pandemic
There are many classes that do aoe; so just hope for overlap

You should wait for it to fall off
With deathmark you can refresh rupture whenever
But try to let improved Garrote fall off
a fresh garrote lasts longer than deathmark, refresh after deathmark
Is it any good using Animacharged CP on ruptures since the dps from rupture is the same from 1 to 6 cp? Or should we always use them with envenoms?
thanks very much for clarifying for me
so pandemic refresh will go with the most recent application. that makes sense now, havent played sin rogue since the original SoD sylvanas kill
It's more like whatever then? Just press the finisher you need to press?
Ok ok thanks a lot, i always tried to use them on envenoms only and end up losing uptime on dots, so I was wondering if I was wrong or if I just do it bad
Never lose uptime on rupture
if anything, you would want to rupture with an animacharge because it's more damage per combo point, but you can't line it up like that most of the time
you will want to do it for exsanguinate though
Ok then I prioritize rupture with Animacharged CP if I have to refresh it, and for Exsang should I refresh with animacharged even if it's not pandemic window? Or delay a bit to hit it?
if you have ER up for when you're ready to exsanguinate -> deathmark, you would want to er->rupture right before hand, like you would in the opener
So during fights, when cd's line up at around 4min and maybe 8min if needed, we try to do a remake of our opener?
yes
normally however, refreshing rupture with animacharged cp is worth it, and you can refresh it earlier than a normal 5cp for example because it's a longer rupture, so longer pandemic. Can be kind nice when it lines up like that, but it's nothing you force. For most normal usage it's just "if blue cp -> finish with whatever you need to finish with"
pretty much
45 seconds doesn't QUITE line up with 4 min
the ER will come up a little earlier
and that's fine, you don't hold it
just send it
but it's something you want to keep in mind in case you're holding your deathmark a little for a mechanic or something like that
or if it comes up, and you still have animacharge points unused that you happen to land on
Another question that might sound dumb and that I maybe missed if FAQ, but we delay second Exsang for third deathmark, I guess we delay puzzle box as well?
yep
typically yes
exsang + puzzle box with nothing else attached is giga dogshit
they do nothing on their own
Oh yeah I see, useless to speed up dots if they aren't buffed
Thanks a lot for your time and the tips!
Hope I'll make them useful now x)
np
what is this arterial precision build i'm seeing on Eranog.
A dog shit one
ah probably old parse.
any IC builds on eranaog are just parse monkeys where their raid is letting them pad on adds
Does storm-eater boon negates the pull-in of dathea's cyclone?
it should, but why would you use it there and not on adds?
cause i'm staying down whole fight
then don't use boon
Just ust sprint, it covers whole pull-in
i don't even have boon, i'm just asking
Yes it would; but unless you're me and don't have an alternative trinket to use, then it isn't worth your time
right now using puzzle box and torch
Then i wouldn't use a boon
channel boi
he just likes spinning
he thinks its fun
strafing is for no-fun-havers like us I guess

Right i forgot to calculate for dopamine
Drop grieftorch for boon
And get ur spinning dopamine
tell me more about the strafe technique
I toggle my dpi up during cyclone

I just face with the boss to my 3 o'clock and tap q while sprinting
And dps
Btw weird thing
What is making our sprint reset and shiny
evokers
Is it an evoker thing or something
Gotcha
I gave in and started using exsang again today because i wanted double shadowstep for dathea
it's kinda nice having much higher burst but bleh
how does using exsang give you double step
shiv 

@velvet haven
so like this?
Basically
exan is ok, but I think a better nerf than just cooldown time like they did would be, cd time to 2min instead of 3, and reduce tick rate bonus a bit more as a compensation
and you can acttualy hit her while facing like that?
Yes
?
Why wouldnt you be able to notter 
Pre sure i just exported ur wowhead one
cause you're not facing towrads her? i dunno
Which is 1 point in poison app
breh
yeah, it puts that into exsang
if you don't want to run exsang
you just drop exsang for 2/2
where do you lose the step
I don't get it

6/8M btw

I think i pulled one of the older sim builds people were theorizing when we were trying to not play exsang
Before the dtb move
And i didn't grab a new build
@shrewd night wouldn't your hit-cone be like that?
Just slightly adjust it isn't perfect
if your hit cone was 30 degrees maybe, sure
Its wider than that, and you can still turn 10 degrees to the right for cone to hit
You dont have to run straight 90 degree angle away from boss yaknow
i was also using dathea trinket for ST until yesterday when i finally got a puzzlebox
so

(legit had no better option)
Id post a clip from stream, but wont be able to until Im home
can you link the replay then?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/area-52/penless yeah so this has been my raid build until this week
thanks

then this is what i used today for dathea kill
I mean i wasn't parsing awfully given how bad you make it sound
thought my mythic parses are currently pitiful
he means it like "yeha, ofc you use that build, its the normal build everyone is using"
5% is 5%

will 5% ruin your parse?
probably not
but seems real dumb to throw it away for no reason
Y'all also enjoying farming m+2? Being super cool lately 
I just really didn't enjoy exsang
Whispyr is a coward and he switched to pirate spec everyone out him he’s a versatility enjoyer now
dont need to do that
Lucky you 😦
that's fine, then just spec out of it
:lelw
And for my group at the time i was still Topping charts with it so i didn't feel a need to adapt and stagnated ig
where's my lelw
421 on all tier slots, 418 or vault items crafted on all non Tier slots 

I was about to say, that if you're angled, wouldn't you just be continuously moving forward around her
which I see that you do.
the way i do it allows for staying more-or-less in the same spot
but it's probably harder to execute and is a dps loss
You gigachad, I'm still chad
90 degree angle means you wont autoattack
And ig k never fully researched the new pathing
~70 means you can do everything and just turn around and go the other direction if you need to
Also didn't see we swapped our kyrian capstone buff
by the way i do it i mean spinning every GCD to face her
Does feel better this way
Spinning every gcd 
yeah
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/fjHpFGmzMA83xJv6#fight=25&view=replay
skip to 0:44 to see me spinning 
Ima be honest chief, that sounds like carpal tunnel and dumbfuckery for exactly the same result, but you do you ig
we never touched the "more dmg" talent lol
Maybe i swapped it on accident fking months ago and never realized it

seems on brand considering your spec tree was from december
Because it makes sense not to in hindsight idk man i just press buttons sometimes.
What else is absurdly wrong with my spec tree?
Blackjack path?
Nvm no answer to that is important
blackjack isn't on the spec tree
Yeah just ignore me... Idk why i read and wrote spec tree and continued to think about class tree
Er convo ig
Is it just me or is the ilvl parse just a big bait ?
ilvl is a significant factor, but there are other factors
a huge one is kill time.
being able to use an extra set of CDs, or a very short time can increase DPS
That is true
its quite useless because it lacks numbers of logs
Also there are some people clearing with alts while others are on the mains etc. right?
Can I see how many times I got parried on logs
I guess I should be satisfied with my performance as long as my WoWanylizer stuff looks good ?
yeh
you can hover over the miss tab
Thanks 🙏
hewwo, i'm a bit dumb and i keep getting hit by Fenryr, when am i supposed to vanish to avoid the ravenous leap?
When he's mid air on his way to you
Before
It's a bit fast
You can see the timer
also uuuh, where can i find the link to the book of shadow? i think it'll answer most of my questions tbf, since they're all oriented towards how to use my defensive cds
and i feel dumb because i know rogue does great against Fenryr to negate damage, and i always poorly time them
nvm, found it 
Halls of Valor guide on how to skip Fenryr's Raveneous Leap on Halls of Valor for Dragonflight Mythic+.

thanks 
tl;dr: pop it when he dashes at you
you can also alternatively use shadowstep
but its a less common way to do it, as it is slightly more difficult to time
(still approachable)
doesn't matter if i'm first target or not, as long as i vanish when he's dashing at me
yep
✍️
tbh
if you want to practice it, just go into a slightly lower key a 10 or 15
probably not too low because you want the boss to not die instantly
how do you do it with step?
with step you just outrange the ability i suppose?
this dude is so clickbait, but damn, he got good vids 🙏
his vids titles brought me back to a very dark place, but i'm glad to see that ||Infexious|| is dead

I kinda miss his magic numbers that you need to reach tho
If you have more than exactly 34,34% mastery, ur trolling
how does echoing reprimand work?
in practice I mean
never played kyrian rogue in SL
you get blue combo points, when you use a finisher on those it counts as max cp
but do I to be exactly on them?
ye
get a blue combo point, press a offensive finisher, it calculate the damage as if it was a 7 CP finisher
SnD/Kidney wont spend the blue CP
there are some opners on the faq if you use those they are designed to land most stuff on the echoing cps
on your normal rotation you just do what you humanly can to land on them without wastin gcds or resources
and the talent that gives you extra ones is just wiggle room
yeah, I had to double check cause I didnt remember what the other option on the capstone was xd
shocking indeed
so to be clear my finisher need to end on a blue one to be effective right
it's like Sepsis being on the same spot as SBS, it's just so we don't forget him
yes
hence my confusion
there is some dynamics outside of the opener because a rupture on a blue combo will simply last longer
If you envenom on a blue, it will do [(22% of Attack power) * 7], 7sec
which is still dps gain I guess its energy efficient
it is
if you have a rupture like that on refreshing it, it's a boon
you dont refresh a rupture because you are on a blue CP, you refresh rupture because it's in pandemic range, and you happen to be on a blue CP
if you get the difference
Maybe a dump question but i refresh a blue cp rupture with a normal one or i let running out the blue rupture before apply a normal one?
refresh
you never let a bleed run out, the only exception that can be argued is a empowered garrote
and exanguinate ones

exsanguinate ones are bound to drop due to the nature of the cooldown, and empowered garrote is reapplied at the last minute to milk to the very last drop this sweet Improved garrote damage
exsanguinates natural habitat, a field of dandelions
I was gonna say something witty but I'm not clever enough
why is this like, the peak of uncanny valley for the weirdge type of emotes

Idk but it makes me laugh way harder than it should
i use only locally sourced poisons

tbh I am not a fan of all these extra buttons, I liked the simple elegance that was assa before
some people puts them in a macro but we all agree they should be banned from the game
i miss vendetta 
Thank you
but vendatta is a bad word with mean implications!
I miss the concept of us getting a reworked cooldown that isn't just a press with a vanish somewhere in there
I prefer Benedetta, the verhoveen movie
astute observers of the assassination spec will notice that vendetta and deathmark are actually just the same fucking button gameplay wise
real disappointing
Nah, vanish a dps cooldown get fucked
atleast we don't need a 28% dmg buff before being somewhat viable
give it time
Just play evoker you only need like 4 buttons bound
dont try to take my buttons away I like em
eh I main a BM hunter I know all about the 3 button rotation
I don't like exsanguinate because my brain is too small to comprehend how it works, so i have to rely on @balmy condor big brain and programmer socks
Good day my beloved assassins, playing on my toon and having an absolute blast, but m+ is a bit confusing, was wondering if you can answer some of my quesions:
-
When do you extend your initial garrotes/ruptures on big packs? Is there some sort of condition, like you dont use another one when mob is at certain hp? Do you start applying new garrotes immediately when off opening cd, or keep them til the end for bonus dmg?
Or maybe you just apply initial and keep spending cps on CT or Envenom? -
Do you try to time every exang with mark of death or just use it on cooldown, while trying to time it to be available on bosses?

No, it has nothing to do with your brain size. You hate exsanguinate because it’s literally just an awful design
- If it doesn’t last the full duration and you don’t need the energy from the bleed, don’t apply it
- Exsang every 4 minutes with Deathmark, or just don’t run it
also true, i prefer kingsbane
Dumb question cuz I can't read. Was the original % diff of not playing exsang factoring in dropping puzzlebox too?
Actual trash tier ability 
wow, thank you so much ❤️
Like am I hard trolling if I don't takr pbox + exsang
Like 4%
Exsang reducing deathmark duration is mega stupid and should have been removed in testing lol
They’re each about 2%
puzzlebox ain't bad
what if kingsbane and exsang switched places
yum
Exsang reducing Deathmark duration is the single interesting thing our cooldowns do
It might be jank
But if it didn’t interact like that holy fuck you could play the spec blindfolded with your toes
It would actually be so braindead
so how does exang work in tadem wiht bonespike
Wait, i might be dumb/out of the loop, but Whispyr, didn't you said we should avoid using Deathmark and Exsanguinate at the same time?
Wait, you don’t?
Would be funny if bonespike did damage 80% faster every time you press exsang
You always exsang->deathmark, you Never deathmark->exsang
and after exang, deathmark doubles faster ticking bleeds, right?
also another dumb question, if I prolong my invis garrote with usual one, I miss bonus damage, right?
The 9.1 PTR died for this sin to never happen again
ok, thanks 
It did in ptr in shadowlands at one point and they stacked it up on a world boss until it ticked so fast the world server crashed
LOL
Save box for the 4 min mark too?
Yes
they shouldve kept it
Yes, yes
real raidboss enrage is your guild being so bad the sin rogues crash the fight
God ily bbgrl ty
I miss my WA telling me how many kingsbane stacks i had 
getting cyber-headpat from a WA because i did well
least played class,80% of rogues are m+ only andys that play outlaw for that (and are bad at m+)
Wish I wasn’t a guy so I can be a bbgrl fr fr
How’s it feel to be living my dream
U r a bbgrl to me tho
Swap exsang and sepsis actually
That way you never have to use exsang again and a spec actually plays sepsis
🥚 ?
Ong?
That's not very cis
On jah
Real
I am still having trouble finding a good way to play current assa but that is more a me thing than a class design thing
Oh honey..
@balmy condor you missed bonespike pulling bosses after a wipe of the rogue targeted the boss in season 4
🥚

Bind all your cooldowns to your f1-f5 keys, and then roll your knuckles across the keys every now and then
They took permanent very seriously
What?
Season 4?
Why is that the comparison
Yea
i only play with Exsang because i have 4P, otherwise i'd gladly take the L and play with MA 
Hunters mark did the same thing
Nvm it's just a dumb thing I'm thinking about
It was so dumb
When they tried “fixing” it in s4 it came back for like a month

Seli was malding so hard he literally became bald

I’m concerned for you
the menace
Great band name
Great song name for my new band
i like it
I'm considering speccing into cold blood so fan of knives actually generates more than 2 combo points against 500 enemies

cold blood>CT for scrapping some instant damage 
I’m considering going legs
@gusty mirage is the torso
@marble hemlock is the brain
@spice spire can be the skull
And then we all morph together like the power rangers

And that’s rude
Fine, I will need to call her by her full first name then, valedictorian
I didn’t want it to come to this

:(
then the disgust/discomfort quickly settles
One of my guild mates gets off on getting cat called im pretty sure
You can’t self report like that
She’s transfem, the ridiculously rude gender affirmation is so powerful
if you want E, just slide in those dms already, i can hook you up 🙄

There are plenty of people our (or well mine, you zoomer) stuck in that age

My cat is born male, but he got his balls removed and lately his meow sounds higher
He is transitioning
how bad is sin rn?
Its fine on ST
cats are gods, with or without balls
but overall is lackluster/bad?
depending on what you think is bad
If overall is your goal then sin most likely isnt what you want
It's good in raids at least
And the single target doesn’t really make up for it
Mid in dungeons
Take Kurog for example with perpetual 2 target cleave
I find the fight completely fine for sin, albeit a bit low
Dot specs smash that fight because theyre good at cleave
Right
2 target is maybe not "that" bad? but def will always be worse than outlaw which only needs to press them blade flurry
Your english sounds way too intellectual for this channel

I don't get why sin isn't allowed to deal 500k st
Ur maplestory skills tho? Choice
Nah. It should do a pinch more but overall it's more than fine
Real
Like getting assblasted by like 6k dps by someone 5 ilvls lower than you isn't necessarily cash money
But we're literally immortal so /shrug
Thats more like it
Immortal? Sistren I’m gonna ook ook my death

Yeah, habitually responding as that can actually be quite harmful and I’d never want that. Sorry about that
I screenshoted
Lmfao I'm definitely in the boat that brother, bro, dude, guys are neutral terms
jking :p
I appreciate the sentiment but we're bing chilling
Nah I know. And it may be for you, but it may not be for others. And the last thing I want to do is create harm from an innocent phrase I use. So the goal is to not autopilot responses
Slurs and all. I’m a gamer after all

Whispyr
What's your dream 10.0.7 landing spot for sin
What change would you make if you were realz rn
Nice.
Delete exsang and put some bullshit or whatever in the slot, buff ap, buff scent, buff kingsbane, redesign sepsis to not be some weird janky garrote enabler (see also flagellation), scrap the entire right side of the class tree and try again

Great ideas @balmy condor , but the devs will probably go with 'eff rogues'.
Based
i want to add to remove pb to the list it was dumb in legion it was dumb in sl and its still dumb xD 😛 but not the biggest problem atm
How do you feel about exsang being creeping death? 15% (tuning) increased tickrate of dots
Hey guys! Just switched to rogue 🙂 Liking it so far. only 65 though been spamming TW to get to 70 lol
welcome to rogue 🙂
Anything better than now
Did you prefer Exsang as a 45s ability?

this looks good but it would be so much valor to upgrade
My love for you is uncapped oxi
Don't tempt me
true around 10 +2 zerg would make it 13/13..
but I'll get mythic eranog ring soon anyways 

yeee i love assa mythic+
btw
for big packs I stiill dont get if it is better to spam CT or get a poison bomb with envenom and then spam CT
or just only spam CT
or spam envenom on the main target
it depends on the how big is pack if I recall the faq correctly
to get poison bomb procs
Well let's say its 8+
"In 6+ Target AoE, you can consider using Crimson Tempest as your combo point dump
Use Envenom to dump combo points otherwise" says faq
but i still mix some envenoms to keep my snd and poison bombs procs
but I do more damage if I manage to get a poison bomb and then spam CT
yea same
keep in mind I started this game 1.5 months ago 
having both up is the plan but wanted to know if crimson tempest is more optimal then the poison bomb proc chance

Rng damage 
It averages out to be about neutral
Unless you’re playing amp poison
Then you get a bit more value out of envenoming more
i doo alrighty then, ty
Where I can see some assa m+ footage?
as videos? have no clue kek
yeah videos,most pros play only sub and its boring af
yeah if you just search it on YouTube I guezz idk
im parsing purple rn so im fine
helped me realize that CT has to be spammed watching a 20+ assa mythic+ vid once and from there on was easy
I played tons of assa in SL ,always spammed CT ,but sadly it was behind a lot compared to outlaw
Like I feel assa is in a real good spot in mtyhic+, I played assa in legion for mythic and was utter trash lol
like I always get top dps chart on big pulls and great dps on bosses too
small packs of 3 or 2 you dont deal much damage
but its not as dangerous so you dont have to deal too much dmg
im having a blast anyways, always loved assa
that IC garrote rupture CT is deadly
I play pretty much only assa, poison bomb works fine toom just don't let CT fall off
Honestly it doesn't really matter what buttons you press as long as you follow normal finisher/gen rules
yep. and if you get lucky with poison bombs you can see crazy high numbers

feels good when I do more dmg then someone with more ilvl and ranking then me
ah
the good old
assa is good cause i top dps in my 15s
and i play with literal bots
I miss the old poison bomb 🤤
LOL
i count end of dung damage, idk how you count it :^)
hitting that big double poison bomb in CoS
not my point
Big numbers go nyoom
yes and then you dont proc good
and do 0 dmg
awesome design
go to enhancement discord
they will agree
with you
thats a hyperbola
back in legion it wasnt a hyperbole
well yeah true, assa was trash in mythics
it was true in raid aswell
you could play as well as you wanted
but if you got bad procs you did bad dmg
in raids? I remember being top dps also the world charts were the same
assa was on the first spot for raids
at least 1st and 2nd patch
yea but that doesnt mean it wasnt rng poison bomb
bro the rng posions are not the entire kit of damage assa has lol
what does being good have to do with rng dmg
yeah i dont like rng aswell
but I guess rng is a fun mechanic in any games, thats why it exists
dopamine goes brrr
not when
its litearlly
sometimes do omega damage
sometimes do bad damage
and nothing else
fake
what do you want to tell me I dont get it
rng bad
or assa bad?
or poison bomb bad?
bad except when it's good
legion bp is a love-hate relationship
Loved when my tanks would kite out of it
my doctor got a lot of Rxs for blood pressure meds that expac
i loved how one of our rogues got a r1 log on mythic
just because he had nice PB procs in execute
but also the same person cursed the shit out of it when he ha bad luck with procs
Boison pomb
I hate poison bomb for that reason. Perfect play should result in the exact same amount of damage. It's less bad now as compared to Legion but still.
this is me
R1 mythic guldan for like 3 weeks because I had the equivalent to 6 bones rolls for PB for nearly every envenom
nice
On the bright side we aren't like ele shaman where if you get no procs you just fall over
I think there was a variance chart posted in sub channel that showed all of the specs
I believe you're thinking of the enhancement gamba build
Whoops, if I said wrong spec mb. It was posted yesterday and I just saw blue at the top 
I've recently switched to Assassination from Subtlety as I'm progressing Broodkeeper on boss group. I've got some questions regarding Shiv and Tea.
Is it right to use Shiv at max cp? And I've been trying to sync Tea with Shiv and pool energy for Shiv windows, is that good or am I overthinking it?
Youre overthinking it. Pop tea when you are low energy. And shiv on cd.
If youre max cp..i would envenom then shiv so you dont overcap cp
I was the PB proc master back in legion
Hm... Pretty sure overcapping to fit in an extra full envenom is well worth the 1-2 cp you would get from Shiv..
If you happen to starve, even 1 GCD that's the third envenom off Shiv gone.
But they said they were already at max cp. So it would be full envenom already.
Its probably minimal in damage if you were to overcap in that situation though
Yeah but if you're next ability is Shiv, assuming you need 2 GCD's to build Envenom, ofcourse this isn't true if you have ER.. You're risking the last envenom off the shiv window if you energy starve a bit during those 400 something energy you need to pull it off.
That's true
starting shiv:
1 2 1 1 2 1 1 2
starting envenom:
2 1 1 2 1 1 2 1
Let's say 1 is combo point generator and 2 is finisher and you're in stage you need 2 gcd's for 5+
It's possible the first one, but risky if you starve a bit.
For me what I do is I use it cooldown, but Shiv only the last combo points, opening the first combo points with Shiv always ends up with me only fitting 2 envenoms.
I had to start doing it this way because I found out my Envenom damage was sucking balls 😄
I always kept missing the third cast because the GCD window was too tight on the shiv buff
is there an internal cd on poison bomb or can it procc like 5 times in a row if you're lucky?
There's no cd.
It has a fixed chance per CP on envenom
gzzz
!! thanks
Yes

I like grabbing haste but I’m also bad
In higher keys the dr from vers is also nice
Same got only 99% logs with PBS Back in Legion.
But you know if pb didnt proc during opener you welcome your purple log instead of yellow xD
Sadly i suck atm too much multispeccing
ravenholdt and people humblebraging, name a more iconic duo
Crying and druids ?
trust me bro, balance is like, GIGA weak rn, ussules, unplayable
(druids, every single patch, when balance druids only make up 40%of the raidrooster instead of the ussual 60%)
🙂
So is it more optimal to exsang on cooldown, or to hold it for every other deathmark
I've heard people say both
they line up it's 2 min and 1 min unless im missing something
No lol
Cd used to be shorter
That would be... strong
Exsang awful abillty
So awkward imo
It would be awkward at 2m too but definitely less awkward
basically reading the faq im assuming you dont hold cds unless it's not gonna make you miss a cast
3m is awk because it's prob correct to hold 2nd cast in a fight if it's short enough to not get 3rd.
I still don't understand the full opener
!pandemic
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
brand new level 10 rogue, classic player Which one would you say is the best to do and level up with?
I like sin or sub for leveling
can I swap it if I don't like one?
Alright, thank you
So do I get alternating points? like one level sublet talent than the next rogue*
You alternate between getting points in the class (left) tree and spec (right) tree every level
Is this still up to date minus the kingsbane?
Yes it is
RIP KB 😦
It was loved
I miss blindside and sbs
It may not have lived a long life but it lived a purposeful one
I legit havent even clicked that capstone once since its release
Yea same
Therefore AP sucks
Was a bad change for sure
same
would've been a fine change if they did literally anything to kingsbane
except just moving it
Bake in CDR. Make it gain applications from other target's poisons (new talent) etc
whoops
honestly
just buff its damage
I hate CDR on a design level
I was just taking that old sinister concotion talent
If it gained funnel value in cleave/aoe
then it'd be sick
I'd think kb needs to do a metric fuckton of damage to compete with the constant value of dtb
I just hate that they put the giga unplayable and boring capstone at the most interesting side of the tree
well, yes
but its also like
when DtB is ussules, it also somewhat sucks
i just think its weird that the nearly completely passive option is higher dps than the not passive button and I expect like a 20% buff or a cool tier set interaction or something next patch.
i sorta get the reasoning behind ap, i imagine they wanted a capstone that also somewhat buffed ttb since it was never used but the implementation i think is a pretty big step backwards for the tree as a whole
But hm, people want to play Kingsbane as sustained damage when it's a burst cooldown, then if they made it sustain viable people would complain we don't have a burst ability, lol.
i feel like if we went back to legion gameplay speed where maintaining envenom and pooling were actual considerations you had to make then you'd be able to craft more distinct identities for the three paths
but it's too late for that now that the expansion's already out
we're only going to get more stats lmao
Imo capstones should be like sun kings blessing or whatever it's called for mage
Super powerful thing that changes how you play
Pooling reaaaally isn't a thing anymore. Not like how it used to be.
Yeah kinda, but not always, not as before.
But still there's situations where if you know you're going to starve.. you pool like before so you can muti after you evenom to apply deadly.
yeah i mean sometimes you will energy starve and maintaining envenom might get harder but overall it's not as much of a thing
Well yeah sure, with Tea and regen you don't as much.
But did anyone actually had fun before pooling because you had no energy?
They added Tea because people were crying in BFA about how bad energy regen was.
i think i'd like it as an option, if say the left side was much more methodical, requiring planning to maximise burst windows
though of course the worry is if it's not fun and becomes mandatory on fights where it's advantageous
For me I want the highest damage with the smallest APM. It's why I picked Sin waaay back in the day. I loved the energy starved days.
(except you didnt pool in legion)

Didn't you? I recall keeping my eyes on my envenom buff weakaura. Might be misremembering though.
Dark brew is an example of a bad capstone imo.
people always say that pooling was a thing, it never was
has good synergy with deeper daggers
its strong, but jesus christ its litearlly a % dmg increase as a capstone lol
and ours is literally a QoL cooldown, and being able to use 4 poisons
and an aoe shiv
that's useless
I don't really miss anything of the old assassination, I think it's been the best it's been so far. Only thing I criticize is the Systemic Failure & Vicious Venoms being very boring designed and too close to each other.. Exsang not being fun and AP having no single target use.. Other than that I'm heppi.
I mean yeah if you compare them to other classes you're going to be disappointed
Because it doesn't change how you play. You probably won't even notice it without looking closely at details
I don't mean it's weak
bos? 🙂
what is bos
breath for frost dk
they got it as a capstone
if that's the case
I know
capstones don't have to be game changing
they just have to be impactful
which I think the rogue ones are done fine (we don't talk about AP)
outlaw had their ambush benefitting from the sinister strike garbage
yea i agree that they don't need to be game changing, just saying that some are
i actually think dark brew is good, because its got nice synergy with a bunch of the other parts of the kit
dark brew is probably the best capstone rogue has
tbh
and it's a lot more interesting than "you can have 4 poisons"
its got a nice synergy with the rest of the sub "convert things to shadow dmg"
because dark brew is far more than just a % based increase
lightweaver for holypriest isnt a full change, but actually made the spec WAY better and gives it a shitton of options
but 1 of the few capstones that actually does that tbh
and synergizes well with deeper daggers
if you wanna see a bad capstone
look at assassination
where does AP fit in
at all

it synergizes with tiny toxic blade
It fits in council
and adds a little oomph to your zoldycks
does it?
4 enemies, 4 shivs
or do we play it because it literally doesn't matter what we play on that fight
Math checks out
it's 4 extra shivs
Also true
Nah take the D man
ap giving shiv a boost to bleed is a nice boost, but the cleave thing feels weird
I'll be visiting your pops tomorrow dw
God bless
ya I'd rather it boost the bleed damage more
and they remove the cleave
ttb has to be someones pet idea they can't get rid of
completely
TTB 
like some producer plays it
Remember when it was the capstone there?
fucking loves it
i think if they gave left side sub tree some way to get vanish down to 1 min cd, the rotten would be fine
hey there, I'm starting my journey on rogue. I'm looking for some assassinations content creators and/or pov's to watch. Could someone give me a few recommendations of highs dps'ing rogues? sorry if this has been asked before.
because rotten+tfd+premed lets you have a real nice 6 second dance window
@marble hemlock streams sometimes
and if you had a 1 min cd vanish you could do a 1 minute cycle of flag->dance->vanish->dance
(never)
and shoot it
any youtube channel you guys favorite?
avoid youtube like the plague
i'm just looking for pov's as well
IMO they should have made AP scale down per up to 4 targets. So it would be usable in single target scenario.
twitch is nice for vods
tryan are you having a stroke
yea if ap was "+100% bleed dmg split between each target hit" it'd probably be good
Yeah something like that, with balanced maths
