Yeah I got nothing lads

#

AP fucking sucks

winged quail
#

AP is a spell that exists

#

that I have never talented once

gusty mirage
#

I tried some cold blood AP on council a few times last tier

winged quail
#

I tried playing Sub

gusty mirage
#

And forgot to put coldblood on my bars

#

So I did the boss fight with my spell book open

winged quail
#

hahahahaha

gusty mirage
#

Hopefully the overhaul they promised fixes a lot of our tree issues

#

Tackling assassination aoe is gonna require new expac vibes IMO

gloomy knoll
#

Yea I’m hopeful

winged quail
#

Sin needs a design overhaul to work in AoE

gloomy knoll
#

I dunno 1-2 talents could easily fix sin aoe or at the least make it manageable

gusty mirage
#

I agree

#

Could also use a design overhaul in general

winged quail
#

I don't see how they make this iteration ever do good AoE and be balanced

gloomy knoll
#

But who knows how much time they’re gonna spend on rogue

gusty mirage
#

It’s been the same shit more or less over a decade

winged quail
#

Either we have shit single or shit AoE

rocky ruin
#

make Poison Bomb Aoe Finisher and CT burst the dots like a reopen a fresh wound or poison it something like that

gloomy knoll
#

Literally an aoe finisher would solve at least half the problems

gusty mirage
#

I mean we have one

winged quail
#

Honestly if CT procced Poison Bomb it would be a nice bandaid

gusty mirage
#

Does it solve half the problem?

gloomy knoll
#

Non dot aoe finisher sorry

rocky ruin
#

or a knive bomb a like if it explodes poison knives flying around or so

gusty mirage
gloomy knoll
gusty mirage
#

Then we can deal with people bitching about that the way sub players bitch about black powder

#

No one likes pressing black powder, you do it because it does damage

#

Sub used to be about maximizing dance windows and rewarded good planning/gcd use

winged quail
#

You press BP to cycle to your next dance window where you can play the game

gloomy knoll
#

I don’t mind bp

gusty mirage
#

Putting dance in the class tree was a mistake

#

Black powder was a mistake

gloomy knoll
#

Macabre makes dance fairly interesting

rocky ruin
#

cause dance was for sub, but don't play it

#

the one in the class tree

winged quail
#

Yeah DM make dance windows feel more engaging

gray crest
#

Black powder is boring but having an aoe spender is good

gloomy knoll
#

But I would like less spammy outlaw play style and more dance is a tactical nuke slower play

rocky ruin
#

like fw only useful for outlaw not for us

gusty mirage
#

And they got black powder in return

#

actual funnel damage

#

Through big eviscerates

#

Felt amazing

gray crest
#

Sub became unplayable for the rest of the expansion. They didn't get bp till shadow lands

gusty mirage
#

Then one boss and poof, gone

#

Correct

gloomy knoll
#

Yea we really should be good at funnel and it’s so weird that we’re not

gusty mirage
#

But that aoe to ST funnel is what a lot of people loved about sub

#

Shuriken combo was insanely cool

#

While black powder is for sure an ability that makes purple smoke

gloomy knoll
#

Yea I would trade those any day

#

I remember watching the Chinese mdi team in legion play sub rogues and just pull mad trash onto m+ bosses when nobody else was and just nuking them

#

Was the coolest shit ever

gusty mirage
#

Yeah man it was insane

gloomy knoll
#

Legit fell in love with sub watching that lol

gusty mirage
#

Just slamming fat eviscerates

gloomy knoll
#

I wish they just nuked our builder damage and made evis slap

#

Fuck gloomblade kekdog

gusty mirage
#

Funny enough if you go back to cata

#

When they categorized the specs

wind dune
#

is there a day that balance usually comes out for ptr? those mentioned rogue changes got me possibly coming back if its anything good

gusty mirage
#

Assassination was “poison” damage, combat was hard hitting generators, and sub was hard hitting finishers

gloomy knoll
#

Wait really

#

OMEGAKEKW the fuck

gusty mirage
#

I could be wrong tho

gusty mirage
wind dune
#

thanks king ill be keeping my eye on it for sure

gloomy knoll
#

Wish we still had that then

royal lantern
#

like litearlly

#

you spread arms and enemys glow purple for 1sec

#

thats the animation

gloomy knoll
#

Oh yea the visual animation for it is so bad

Mastery Passive Talent Tree Bonuses

Assassination

#

Assassination was supposed to be the burst spec apparently

wind dune
#

burst to the bottom babyyy

gloomy knoll
#

I’d be cool with that

gusty mirage
#

Granted this was like 13 years ago

gloomy knoll
#

Yea I mean it’d be nice if we had different niches to cover but it always just ends up as 1 rogue spec is playable and the other two aren’t

#

Or they just do kinda the same thing

#

Compared to warlock which has multi dotting funnel st aoe two target cleave each spec feels like it’s just good for something

gusty mirage
#

I mean

#

Except for aff

serene fossil
# gusty mirage

Combat outlaw “without needing to rely on stealth and evasion mechanics” literally vanishes to get more procs going 👁️👄👁️

gusty mirage
#

Warlock has the same style of problem we do

#

Except all 3 specs do damage

#

Mage as well

gloomy knoll
#

What problem

gusty mirage
#

No real identity between the 3

gloomy knoll
#

I dunno it feels like there is between destro and demo

#

Destro can aoe cleave demo can nuke st

gusty mirage
#

warlock's identity is literally just the visuals on how they do the damage

#

destro and demo do insane aoe and insane ST

#

lol

gloomy knoll
#

And aff can multidot when it’s not dogshit

#

Fair it does feel like most of the time stuffs tuned to be relatively similar

#

Which is good for people who wanna one trick I guess but sucks for the class as a whole

kind jacinth
#

Lariat still BiS ???

wide ridge
vestal wren
manic quartz
#

is 2.6k dps significant, sbs/exang sims that much more for me than sepsis or is sepsis implemented in sims yet?

flat kiln
#

In your sepsis sim you're probably not taking the talent on left side of tree that refunds energy. You drop the 1/2 in middle tree poison for that.

manic quartz
#

venom rush?

flat kiln
#

I think that's right. Sry can't check names atm. If you're taking that and still seeing -2.6k that's kinda crazy

brazen zodiac
#

dat was one long pinned ted talk. good talk c: @balmy condor

manic quartz
#

Youre right, i dont have venom rush, dint see how i missed that from the build >_>

manic quartz
runic gorge
#

do the both of the sepsis stealth ability gives improved garrote?

runic gorge
#

TY.

unborn sierra
#

!whispyr

wide ridge
#

should i craft a 447 slimy boots now? surely won't there be a better item later right copium

sturdy valve
#

i miss echoing fok thing from bfa. that was fun

vestal wren
#

probably not

#

slime boots look like the best craft

#

but also weapons are incredibly strong crafts always

#

and for the price of waiting 2 days, you can now have both

frigid kestrel
#

Boots are strong with and without Patch ye?

#

I mean obviously imma get patch, but ill have to wait two more weeks for that

wide ridge
lean fossil
#

for the stealth abilities from sepsis, should you always garrote both of them for max uptime on the empowered garrote, or is ambushing one better?

gilded oasis
#

You don't want to overwrite stealthed garrotes so its ambush in opener and garrote any time you don't have a vanish/stealth garrote one I believe

unborn sierra
#

Looking at Whispyrs spreadsheet, it looks like the Arterial Precision/DTB build has some competing potential in M+. However, I can't see *anybody *on the r.io charts running it. Has anyone tried it out?

spice spire
#

Whispyr did in his runs

steel ridge
#

Plays like shit

spice spire
#

It was more than fine, but you aim for low pull runs atm

#

If you pull a ton you’ll hemorrhage damage

unborn sierra
#

Ah so my puglife would not do so well with that build lol

spice spire
#

No

gusty mirage
#

puglife as assassination

spice spire
#

It is very inflexible

spice spire
lean fossil
gusty mirage
#

for absolutely no fucking reason

spice spire
#

Yeah

gusty mirage
#

yeah bro I'm good

spice spire
#

Yeah :^)

lean fossil
#

but you tech get two charges, one when you press the button and the second one after 10 seconds or so

gusty mirage
#

I'll just play sub

spice spire
#

My favorite play this season is in brackenhide

#

The tank pulling all the mobs for a mile

#

And you’re just like

#

A mile behind everyone else

#

Because you want to be stealthed 🙂

steel ridge
#

Rework will come and make carnage do imp garrote.

unborn sierra
#

does Assassination have good representation? I'm newer to the class and wondering if they get attention when needed? Watching interviews with Whispyr is depressing lol

subtle tundra
#

you already do bad ST with dtb, and you'd do even less

subtle tundra
#

i finish most bosses with ~80k st on sub, i'd be lucky with 70k on assa

steel ridge
#

Sub is OP from a ST/AoE Ratio

#

only fury is better kekw

#

Sub changes 1 point, fury 0

unborn sierra
steel ridge
#

Realz is a good lad who does listen

#

i mean, we expect some sort of blue note soonish

burnt star
#

Blizzard announced rogue change in class talent on 10.1.5. Theres hope!

steel ridge
#

If thats a bust, all hope is gone kekw

burnt star
#

Imagine

#

Rogue vanish from rework

weak horizon
#

lmfao

steel ridge
#

Its not a rework most likely

#

more like little node shuffles

#

Don’t expect any new stuff

burnt star
#

I would expect more. Little bit like what druid got

weak horizon
#

maybe an exsang change?

steel ridge
#

lmao

burnt star
#

Not a ret lvl of change

#

But surely more then just node swapping

steel ridge
#

exsang can suck an elefants dong, get rid of it entirely and build it up from the ground anew

dull cloak
#

when is the last time an assass was played in Mdi

burnt star
#

I mean. Mdi shouldnt be your breakpoint for viability in n+

steel ridge
#

Never probably cause it doesnt have the kit for it, but neither do many others

burnt star
#

Mdi is a specific type of m+

dull cloak
#

it's not but I'm just curious

#

if it's every been played even once lol

steel ridge
#

is sepsis garrote actually worse? I thought its just to max uptime

#

they should deal equal dmg

grim tangle
#

sin rogue was definitely played in mdi back in bfa, probably never played since

lean fossil
#

they are all equal dmg because they are empowered, you just dont get the cps, but from the last part that i missed you garrote the second stealth charge from sepsis

steel ridge
#

yeah thats what i thought

gusty mirage
#

if so

#

they are not equal

steel ridge
#

Shrouded not working for sepsis?

gusty mirage
#

why would it

#

you're not in stealth

steel ridge
#

But improved garrote reads as stealth aswell doesn’t it?

keen radish
#

Technically not

#

Sepsis allows you to use a stealth ability

#

Does not provide the stealth buff

steel ridge
#

But yeah well, thats why you may cut shrouded for zoldyck

frigid kestrel
#

Fragment drrops, Priests says he doesnt need it, tries to trade it with me but cant because he forgot to place his big boy trinkey in both slots

steel ridge
gusty mirage
#

they made it work for imp garrote

#

but not shrouded

#

for reasons

steel ridge
#

So its not clear for improved, it just works

keen radish
#

Yeah youre right. It’s all over the place

gusty mirage
#

blizzard and tooltips

#

name a more iconic duo

#

Sometimes the spores will immediately decay and inflict 1990 Nature damage to you.```
keen radish
#

I assume simc takes that into account right?

gusty mirage
#

nowhere in that tooltip does it indicate that you're unable to apply more stacks until the dot is done

#

but it is what it is

gusty mirage
vestal wren
#

yes its taken into account

keen radish
#

Thanks Fu Manchu

vestal wren
#

it was one of the reasons it went from "bis" to "mediocre"

#

btw. i rly like how all 3 specs are so close this tier

#

130,5k on sin
132k on sub
133k on outlaw

keen radish
#

Me too

vestal wren
#

sad that all 3 would probably like a 5% buff ^^

steel ridge
#

Outlaw being ahead of sin is weird

weak horizon
#

id be ok with it if sin had solid m+ like the other 2

steel ridge
#

sin needs a solid 140k

keen radish
#

I feel like Sin still gets turbo cucked given the fights though. We were doing Sark HC last night and just obviously just no reason to play Sin over Sub

grim tangle
#

havoc simming 145k after buff

vestal wren
#

think would be fine if sin is 133-134k, sub 132k, outlaw 130,5k

keen radish
#

Fights are heavy ST, but then sudden periods of heavy adds where black powder is too nice to pass up

keen radish
vestal wren
#

the problem rly is that assassiantion is mostly a single target focused spec

#

what is completely fine with me btw.

grim tangle
#

adds werent really a problem for us and sin actually benefits from the haste buff, so I think it's pretty close which is better on that fight

vestal wren
#

just needs to be tuned accordingly

#

i also feel liek assa could be nice on the last boss

#

due to haste buff

keen radish
#

If we can’t pull ahead on ST, then there’s no reason to play it. Because as soon as there’s adds - if you’re just “even” with sub - then suddenly you’re behind

vestal wren
#

sub outlaw both can easier get multi target talents

steel ridge
#

Yeah

vestal wren
#

that is a hot take

#

but i think bp should deal more damage

steel ridge
#

Sin being ST is absolutely fine, but blizzard ftl of god, let it blast

vestal wren
#

^ exactly

gusty mirage
#

considering its aoe is pathetic

steel ridge
#

I am fine playing sub or outlaw for dungeons

pure moth
keen radish
#

Only done Sark on HC at the moment but the haste buff feels awkward for Sin. Lining up cds for the haste felt kinda cucky

steel ridge
#

But let me fucking annihilate bosses

gusty mirage
#

yeah I mean if they try to make all 3 specs good at everything

#

all 3 will feel the same

#

and that's less fun than having to swap specs for aoe-centric fights or m+

steel ridge
#

This

keen radish
#

It’s the BM syndrome I think. Like I was happy when BM did great single target and dog on aoe. And if you wanted AOE you played MM. Felt nice to me

gusty mirage
#

also why isn't outlaw the top dog for 5-8T cleave

#

considering it's the only capped spec in the game still

#

lol

vestal wren
#

i think all 3 are too similar

gusty mirage
#

yeah I agree

vestal wren
#

let sub be the burst spec

gusty mirage
#

right now all 3 specs play very similar

#

and I don't like it

vestal wren
#

sin be the sustained execute st spec

#

and outlaw the casino spec

gusty mirage
#

yep

#

plus sub already has the tools for being burst

keen radish
#

In lighter news, I got a 30~ parse on magmorax last night 😃

steel ridge
#

ST execute, thats what sin should be

gusty mirage
#

sectech-cb is giga burst

#

just increase the peaks of the burst

#

and cut down on the gloomblade damage lol

#

make dance matter more

keen radish
gusty mirage
#

make someone be like hmm maybe wasting 2 points for 5% FW uptime is worth a 2nd dance charge

vestal wren
steel ridge
gusty mirage
#

even if in reality it'll never be the play

keen radish
gusty mirage
#

sadly

keen radish
#

I can get behind that compromise

gusty mirage
#

not as good as brew's burst with that trinket

#

can someone explain to me

#

how brew gets like 6k dps from a heroic beacon?

vestal wren
#

haven't gotten beacon yet

steel ridge
#

Versa stacking

vestal wren
#

besad but heroic 2p

#

ethical 2p2p gamer

gusty mirage
keen radish
#

Had a brew in a key yesterday who absolutely turbo pumped damage it was unreal

gusty mirage
#

other vers stacking specs don't get brew damage

#

here lemme show you our wowaudit for droptimizers

steel ridge
#

idk our brew turbo scales of most trinkets aswell

gusty mirage
#

(mine is averaged between sin/sub)

vestal wren
#

brew/veil/dd nerfs rly lowered the damge of it

gusty mirage
#

5k dps bro

vestal wren
#

i mean sin just goes iredius + 💣

#

or nelth + 💣

gusty mirage
#

beacon > fragment

#

fragment is actually kind of mediocre

steel ridge
#

Fragment is ass idk

vestal wren
#

fragment sims higher

#

slightly

gusty mirage
#

fragment was oversimming though

steel ridge
#

hate that its 3 min

gusty mirage
#

slight oversim

vestal wren
#

still is?

keen radish
#

I’m getting HC bomb or Beacon in vault on Wednesday guarenteed

gusty mirage
#

but oversim none the less

vestal wren
#

fair

keen radish
gusty mirage
#

seems kinda meh

#

tbh

#

like it's a solid trinket

#

but nowhere near omegabis

flint tusk
#

Wish we’d got heroic sark down so i could vault the beacon.
#i’ve has shit rolls so far so maybe my vault is where my luck is this season copium

subtle tundra
#

oh

#

so im not farming fragment

#

its not bis

#

COOL

#

thanks

gusty mirage
#

now when it comes to my mythic icon

#

it's a bit more than 0.4% dps

keen radish
gusty mirage
subtle tundra
#

its gonna take a while for me to get trinkets

gusty mirage
subtle tundra
#

lets just say i hate masterloot

gusty mirage
#

I'm not playing exsang ever again if I can help it

#

idc if its slightly worse

keen radish
#

Exsang still sims 1.2k more* for me

gusty mirage
#

yeah if you replace puzzle box

#

it'll be lower

keen radish
#

Meant more sorry. But still not playing that shit

gusty mirage
#

sepsis build was like

#

0.2% worse for me with puzzlebox

#

Hello everyone ! I have a question will the new set help the spec to rise in m+?

gusty mirage
#

no

keen radish
#

I’m stuck with Frag and Dice atm

paper haven
#

RIP

gusty mirage
#

frag and dice are gud trinkets

#

until you can get your beacon + bomb

paper haven
#

Will the spec still be playable for 20+ keys? or only good for raid :/

keen radish
#

My frag is like dog though cus the one time it dropped was with a guildies alt so it’s 411 and guess who doesn’t have any Drakes left this week

keen radish
#

There was a dude who got KSH last tier with Sin

paper haven
#

Because I love the spec and I'm really less of a fan of the others haha

undone eagle
#

1 question guys, regarding m+ bis gear, why are many of them vers/haste stats?

#

does it rly sim higher than mast/crit?

balmy condor
#

They have to be

#

That’s how tuning works

steel ridge
balmy condor
#

If a spec can’t do 20’s it’s actually just buff city

keen radish
#

Agreege

paper haven
#

Zerocool is the best rogue sin too

balmy condor
#

Ehhhhh……

somber sparrow
steel ridge
#

No thats whispyr

balmy condor
#

God no

steel ridge
paper haven
#

Because I'm starting as a rogue, (I've been playing the rogue for 1 month) and I'm up to 2k3 at the end of s1 and I'd like to rush the 3k on s2 haha

keen radish
#

Wasn’t Sin the only spec that only had 1 person at Hero? I think even bear drood had a few right?

eager solstice
#

Zero cool is best sin at least in mplus, no question about that

steel ridge
#

wdym i saw you wipe in uldaman like a god

balmy condor
#

There’s plenty of good sin rogues I just don’t like when people are like “oh X is the best for sure” because that’s not really how it works

#

Especially in m+

gusty mirage
#

@subtle tundra is #1 in my heart

keen radish
balmy condor
#

I don’t think people realize that m+ is more time investment than anything

paper haven
#

i play 13 hours per day actually

steel ridge
gusty mirage
#

at a certain point 13 hours per day ends up being like

#

5 keys

#

cause you spend 90% of your time in LFG

gusty mirage
royal lantern
paper haven
#

If you ever have any advice for the spec, whether it's macros or other, I'm interested

#

^^

gusty mirage
#

@gray crest remembers our guildie legit sitting in LFG for 3-4 hours and getting 1 key done

#

lol

storm belfry

#

I find it intriguing how the first things people get stuck on are stats and macros, both equally useless

gray crest
#

Raenz?

gusty mirage
#

his title push that last weekend he played like 18 hours a day and managed to get 4 keys done

#

to secure it

who insisted he could feel the difference in 200 secondary stat

storm belfry
#

ppl asking streamers "why stop at 37.8976% haste?"

#

like dude

#

they are still gearing

gusty mirage
#

I was like you're telling me you can feel the difference between a 424 crit/haste cloak and a 424 vers/mastery cloak?

storm belfry
#

no one is chasing stats except players who arent actually actively trying to get better

gusty mirage
#

"yes"

#

like oh okay man

#

whatever you say

storm belfry
#

thats fucking straight copium feelycraft

#

someone asked the other day "how fucked am i for having 11% mastery?> should i drop 100 to get 250 vers?"

#

secondaries are just so minimal man idk

gusty mirage
#

like yeah if you completely neglect a certain stat

#

you'll feel the difference

storm forum
#

as a copium feelycrafter myself, I know a couple hundred rating doesnt rly feel different. But you can definitely feel the difference between 1k+.

gusty mirage
#

like if you're playing with seal fate

#

and you neglect crit

#

yeah you'll feel that

storm belfry
#

imo

#

oh for dps sure

#

yeah sure

#

sorry was in healer mindset

Wanna know how i knew? A random 14 year old kid asked me to join his m+ team. I asked him how/why me. “I just looked up wcl leaderboards for a rogue” lmao

storm belfry
#

ppl ask about how much vers they should have for a 20 "is 16% too low?" its like dude, vers doesnt matter that much unless you are seveerely udner geared and are doing WF keys

royal lantern
steel ridge
#

The fucker just hit me up randomly because he found me on wcl

storm forum
#

for disc and resto (only healers I play), it's the same. there have been times where a change in ring or neck has 800-1000 rating change in haste and it feels so much better/worse

royal lantern

#

does raidbots account properly for diurna ring? Keep telling me current rings are a huge upgrade over annulet and diurna.

storm belfry
steel ridge
gusty mirage
dense thorn
steel ridge
#

Imagine you want shroud soooo desperately that you hit up random dudes you find on wcl

gusty mirage
#

cause the haste/mastery absorb shield one would be replaced pretty easily

#

cause it's just a stat stick

steel ridge
#

Next lvl LFG

#

btw, i had that weird moment yesterday where i could not consume the 2nd sepsis ambush on pull because i got so many blindside procs kekman

gusty mirage
#

nothing fishy about blindside at all

#

I'm a crazy person

storm forum
spice spire
#

But

#

I’ve even said something is up pal

dense thorn
spice spire
gusty mirage
#

any ring would replace the eranog ring

#

try simming it with the shadowflame enchant on one of your daggers

#

also is it a 421 ring?

#

or 408?

dense thorn
gusty mirage
#

toxic embellishment doesn't do fire damage

#

so it wouldn't proc it

#

that's why we played cowl, to proc the ring

steel ridge
#

Last vault gave me the 431 ring with the shield 🙈

storm forum
#

we can swap to the toxic embellishments from cowl because now there are additional ways to proc fire damage, like the raid trinket and new shadowflame enchant

#

I was surprised we dont put a fire gem in our onyx rings too

dense thorn
#

gotcha

steel ridge
#

Just not „BiS“ beare

manic igloo
#

whats the alternative to exsang? or do you kind of have to play with it in ST?

#

Isn't Parrotfeather Cloak (crit/mastery) > Mammoth-Trainer's Drape (mastery/crit) ? or they are very similar?

Thnx Thnx

gusty mirage
#

each week we can get 10 crests

undone eagle
#

yep

#

also its not guaranteed to get 15 fragments everytime on a timed key right?

#

it was 12-15 or smth i think

storm forum
#

12 for a timed key, 5 for an untimed key I thought

gusty mirage
#

ya

undone eagle
#

oh so u never get 15 ??

gusty mirage
#

12 for timed, 5 for untimed

undone eagle
#

or in raids i think it was

gusty mirage
#

raid you get 10 for the first 7 bosses and 15 for the last 2

undone eagle
#

aah right

#

thanks!

anyways it will be easy to farm the fragments anyways

so nothing to worry about 😂

what's the expected uptime of call to suffering? I acquired one and so far it seems to be up for anywhere between 10%-30%. i'm also never seeing it proc during deathmark. and i know i'm baiting myself with this but it seems to proc a lot more without sbs - at best i'm paranoid at worst maybe sbs isn't contributing to the proc rate?

subtle tundra

Ok so i was really hyped to get 4pc on my character since its a really cool effect on assassination rogue, and i had to do it fast since my guild was starting mythic raid and i didnt want to make them wait for me(i was panicked)
I bought Hands with the omni token and then the Legs using the Draconic Mark of Mastery. Only during the encounter Assault of The Zaqali a guild mate has noticed me i bought the wrong Legs, being the pvp variant which can't be upgrade any further. It is an honest mistake made in the heat of battle(my guild master screaming at me for slowing the raid). Please if you could revert my transaction of the token, or rather change them to the PvE version, i beg. If the rest of my guild finds out, they will make fun of me. They gave me the last Omni token we had so i could get 4pc and i buy the wrong thing....

what was the opener for sepsis again

Garrote - SND - Sepsis - Ambush - 5cp rupture- then is it shiv - DM- then echoing repair or no

austere fulcrum

Is it better to keep vanish for after opener atm ? So we do opener ( sepsis ) / stealth- improved grt-snd-sepsis-shiv-rapture and so on. Or we vanish-garrote- dm for max value as before ?

tacit otter
#

you use vanish for the first refresh of the emp garrote:)

#

while dm is active

#

Thank u paul, so basically we kee it for after opener, to have longer time on emp garrote, correct ?

you use it there to get it up for 2nd dm to lineup

Just catching up on all of Whispyr's conclusions from the Sepsis data, but I'm confused on something and I'm hoping someone here can help me understand. In summarizing the results, it says the main reason for Sepsis underperforming is because people were sending in Exsang logs with SBS and non-exsang logs with Sepsis. But on the simulation sheet, it seems to clearly set Sepsis (no exsang) as the standard, and SBS (with exsang) as performing lower - which is why I think many of us submitted logs in that way.

Is this a situation that only occurs reliably with 4/4 T30?

if fok is doing 3-4% of your damage

you would have to double your fok damage by talenting into pk

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
