#assassination
1 messages · Page 443 of 1
I tried some cold blood AP on council a few times last tier
I tried playing Sub
And forgot to put coldblood on my bars
So I did the boss fight with my spell book open

hahahahaha
Hopefully the overhaul they promised fixes a lot of our tree issues
Tackling assassination aoe is gonna require new expac vibes IMO
Yea I’m hopeful
Sin needs a design overhaul to work in AoE
I dunno 1-2 talents could easily fix sin aoe or at the least make it manageable
I don't see how they make this iteration ever do good AoE and be balanced
But who knows how much time they’re gonna spend on rogue
It’s been the same shit more or less over a decade
Either we have shit single or shit AoE
make Poison Bomb Aoe Finisher and CT burst the dots like a reopen a fresh wound or poison it something like that
Literally an aoe finisher would solve at least half the problems
I mean we have one
Honestly if CT procced Poison Bomb it would be a nice bandaid
Does it solve half the problem?
Non dot aoe finisher sorry
or a knive bomb a like if it explodes poison knives flying around or so
We have that too, it’s called press N swap to Sub and press black powder

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
You press BP to cycle to your next dance window where you can play the game
I don’t mind bp
Macabre makes dance fairly interesting
Yeah DM make dance windows feel more engaging
Black powder is boring but having an aoe spender is good
But I would like less spammy outlaw play style and more dance is a tactical nuke slower play
like fw only useful for outlaw not for us
Until you realize sub lost probably the coolest niche in the game in bfa
And they got black powder in return
actual funnel damage
Through big eviscerates
Felt amazing
Sub became unplayable for the rest of the expansion. They didn't get bp till shadow lands
Yea we really should be good at funnel and it’s so weird that we’re not
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
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
Yeah man it was insane
Legit fell in love with sub watching that lol
Just slamming fat eviscerates
is there a day that balance usually comes out for ptr? those mentioned rogue changes got me possibly coming back if its anything good
Assassination was “poison” damage, combat was hard hitting generators, and sub was hard hitting finishers
P sure wednesdays or Thursdays is when we get ptr stuff
I could be wrong tho
Yeah look it up
thanks king ill be keeping my eye on it for sure

Wish we still had that then
its mindblowing that the ability is still looking like a pre-alpha effect lol
like litearlly
you spread arms and enemys glow purple for 1sec
thats the animation
Oh yea the visual animation for it is so bad
Mastery Passive Talent Tree Bonuses
Assassination
Melee damage
Melee critical damage
Poison damage
Combat
Melee damage
Melee Haste
Harder-hitting combo-point generators
Subtlety
Melee damage
Armor Penetration
Harder-hitting finishers
Assassination was supposed to be the burst spec apparently
burst to the bottom babyyy
I’d be cool with that
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
Combat outlaw “without needing to rely on stealth and evasion mechanics” literally vanishes to get more procs going 👁️👄👁️
Warlock has the same style of problem we do
Except all 3 specs do damage
Mage as well
What problem
No real identity between the 3
I dunno it feels like there is between destro and demo
Destro can aoe cleave demo can nuke st
warlock's identity is literally just the visuals on how they do the damage
destro and demo do insane aoe and insane ST
lol
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
Lariat still BiS ???
WiS 
boots(slimy) + toxic patch
is 2.6k dps significant, sbs/exang sims that much more for me than sepsis or is sepsis implemented in sims yet?
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.
venom rush?
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
dat was one long pinned ted talk. good talk c: @balmy condor
Youre right, i dont have venom rush, dint see how i missed that from the build >_>
now sbs/exang is only 720dps ahead and I like Sepsis much more, so i think ill stick with that, ty
do the both of the sepsis stealth ability gives improved garrote?
TY.
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
should i craft a 447 slimy boots now? surely won't there be a better item later right 
i miss echoing fok thing from bfa. that was fun
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
Boots are strong with and without Patch ye?
I mean obviously imma get patch, but ill have to wait two more weeks for that

Yes
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?
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
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?
Whispyr did in his runs
Plays like shit
It was more than fine, but you aim for low pull runs atm
If you pull a ton you’ll hemorrhage damage
Ah so my puglife would not do so well with that build lol
No
It is very inflexible
Brother that’s me wdym
when you use sepsis, you get the ability to use a stealth ability, as far as i was aware. garrote becomes empowered from sepsis's stealtg ability
you ever get a tank chaining when the mob is at 4%
for absolutely no fucking reason
Yeah
yeah bro I'm good
Yeah :^)
but you tech get two charges, one when you press the button and the second one after 10 seconds or so
I'll just play sub
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 🙂
At high keys, it has viability in certain dungeons. You’ll be catastrophically behind in others
Rework will come and make carnage do imp garrote.
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
it does negative ST
you already do bad ST with dtb, and you'd do even less
Whisp is the best
i finish most bosses with ~80k st on sub, i'd be lucky with 70k on assa
I meant from Blizz I guess. I know Whispyr is super vocal which is fantastic, but does Blizz listen and make changes?
We will know soon
Realz is a good lad who does listen
i mean, we expect some sort of blue note soonish
Blizzard announced rogue change in class talent on 10.1.5. Theres hope!
If thats a bust, all hope is gone 
lmfao
Its not a rework most likely
more like little node shuffles
Don’t expect any new stuff
I would expect more. Little bit like what druid got
maybe an exsang change?
lmao
exsang can suck an elefants dong, get rid of it entirely and build it up from the ground anew
when is the last time an assass was played in Mdi
I mean. Mdi shouldnt be your breakpoint for viability in n+
Never probably cause it doesnt have the kit for it, but neither do many others
Mdi is a specific type of m+
check the pins
is sepsis garrote actually worse? I thought its just to max uptime
they should deal equal dmg
sin rogue was definitely played in mdi back in bfa, probably never played since
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
yeah thats what i thought
are you playing shrouded
if so
they are not equal
Shrouded not working for sepsis?
But improved garrote reads as stealth aswell doesn’t it?
Technically not
Sepsis allows you to use a stealth ability
Does not provide the stealth buff
But yeah well, thats why you may cut shrouded for zoldyck
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
Thats clear
Yeah youre right. It’s all over the place
blizzard and tooltips
name a more iconic duo
Sometimes the spores will immediately decay and inflict 1990 Nature damage to you.```
I assume simc takes that into account right?
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
p sure it does ye, but that's a koji, fuu, or whispyr question
yes its taken into account
Thanks Fu Manchu
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
Me too
sad that all 3 would probably like a 5% buff ^^
Outlaw being ahead of sin is weird
id be ok with it if sin had solid m+ like the other 2
sin needs a solid 140k
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
havoc simming 145k after buff
i think the main probelm is that sin is not the one ahead
think would be fine if sin is 133-134k, sub 132k, outlaw 130,5k
Fights are heavy ST, but then sudden periods of heavy adds where black powder is too nice to pass up
Yeah that’s what I’m trying to get at
the problem rly is that assassiantion is mostly a single target focused spec
what is completely fine with me btw.
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
just needs to be tuned accordingly
i also feel liek assa could be nice on the last boss
due to haste buff
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
sub outlaw both can easier get multi target talents
Yeah
Sin being ST is absolutely fine, but blizzard ftl of god, let it blast
^ exactly
yeah assassination being really good at ST would be fine
considering its aoe is pathetic
I am fine playing sub or outlaw for dungeons
I'll pass up black powder anytime. Lol
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
But let me fucking annihilate bosses
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+
This
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
also why isn't outlaw the top dog for 5-8T cleave
considering it's the only capped spec in the game still
lol
i think all 3 are too similar
yeah I agree
let sub be the burst spec
In lighter news, I got a 30~ parse on magmorax last night 😃
ST execute, thats what sin should be
sectech-cb is giga burst
just increase the peaks of the burst
and cut down on the gloomblade damage lol
make dance matter more
Zoldyks baseline 👀
make someone be like hmm maybe wasting 2 points for 5% FW uptime is worth a 2nd dance charge
yes it has:
Earlier in tree
even if in reality it'll never be the play
Deal
I can get behind that compromise
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?
haven't gotten beacon yet
Versa stacking
but like
Had a brew in a key yesterday who absolutely turbo pumped damage it was unreal
other vers stacking specs don't get brew damage
here lemme show you our wowaudit for droptimizers
idk our brew turbo scales of most trinkets aswell
(mine is averaged between sin/sub)
brew/veil/dd nerfs rly lowered the damge of it
Fragment is ass idk
fragment was oversimming though
hate that its 3 min
slight oversim
still is?
I’m getting HC bomb or Beacon in vault on Wednesday guarenteed
but oversim none the less
fair
Oh? I’m so glad I ran 13 HOIs this week for it
heroic beacon is 0.4% more dps than my 441 fragment
seems kinda meh
tbh
like it's a solid trinket
but nowhere near omegabis
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 
Sepsis or Exs?
its gonna take a while for me to get trinkets
stepsis
lets just say i hate masterloot
Exsang still sims 1.2k more* for me
Meant more sorry. But still not playing that shit
Hello everyone ! I have a question will the new set help the spec to rise in m+?
no
I’m stuck with Frag and Dice atm
RIP
Will the spec still be playable for 20+ keys? or only good for raid :/
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
Playable yes
There was a dude who got KSH last tier with Sin
Because I love the spec and I'm really less of a fan of the others haha
1 question guys, regarding m+ bis gear, why are many of them vers/haste stats?
does it rly sim higher than mast/crit?
Every spec is able to do 20’s
They have to be
That’s how tuning works
Zerocool reached 3500 rio as sin
If a spec can’t do 20’s it’s actually just buff city
Agreege
Zerocool is the best rogue sin too
Ehhhhh……
even I was able to get to 2600 at assassination. I didn't try to push higher
No thats whispyr
God no

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
Wasn’t Sin the only spec that only had 1 person at Hero? I think even bear drood had a few right?
Zero cool is best sin at least in mplus, no question about that
wdym i saw you wipe in uldaman like a god
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+
@subtle tundra is #1 in my heart
Stop being modest hunny you know you’re him
I don’t think people realize that m+ is more time investment than anything
i play 13 hours per day actually

at a certain point 13 hours per day ends up being like
5 keys
cause you spend 90% of your time in LFG
what about me
he said best, not cutest

If you ever have any advice for the spec, whether it's macros or other, I'm interested
^^
@gray crest remembers our guildie legit sitting in LFG for 3-4 hours and getting 1 key done
lol
or internally dying
I find it intriguing how the first things people get stuck on are stats and macros, both equally useless
Raenz?
I'm also equally useless
yep
his title push that last weekend he played like 18 hours a day and managed to get 4 keys done
to secure it
Yeah lol
ppl always focus on secondaries over gameplay in any spec or role. its wild to me
Last night I had a good time playing Sepsis/Kingsbane in normal alt night. Life is good.
that sounds horrible
Kisses you intensely
and the titles arent even that cool imo lmao
calm down humanity
Only thing to macro are 2 min trinkets to Deathmark
calming
Imagine getting obsessed over statprio n shit
hey, can you give me a macro for shadowstrike and dance and tea and gloomblade and shadowblade??
can you just make it yourself? you just typed half the macro
go into any healer chat
while i have never touched exsang all season and scored the 3rd highest all star on german servers
had to tell ppl everyday that it literally doesnt affect you as much as you think it does

I obsess over haste on my disc priest
wait, you are german
?
haste for the haste gods
Yes
i wanna do 30 man ramps in norm/heroic
lol opfer
i mean i tell them ilvl > haste and whatever else comes
I had an argument with the DH from my old guild
who insisted he could feel the difference in 200 secondary stat
ppl asking streamers "why stop at 37.8976% haste?"
like dude
they are still gearing
I was like you're telling me you can feel the difference between a 424 crit/haste cloak and a 424 vers/mastery cloak?
no one is chasing stats except players who arent actually actively trying to get better
LOL
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
as a copium feelycrafter myself, I know a couple hundred rating doesnt rly feel different. But you can definitely feel the difference between 1k+.
depends
imo
oh for dps sure
yeah sure
sorry was in healer mindset
Trust me, I feel it 
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
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
did he spell it rouge?
how do you find 14y olds playing wow 
The fucker just hit me up randomly because he found me on wcl
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
nope, probs SCHURKE
does raidbots account properly for diurna ring? Keep telling me current rings are a huge upgrade over annulet and diurna.
this has happened to me as rdruid
Actually i think he did 
Do you have a cowl too?
like the one from broodkeeper?
I have toxic patch
Imagine you want shroud soooo desperately that you hit up random dudes you find on wcl
cause the haste/mastery absorb shield one would be replaced pretty easily
cause it's just a stat stick
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 
nah bro ask quake
nothing fishy about blindside at all
I'm a crazy person

dude this happened to me twice last night on nelth
from eranog

yeah if you don't have a way to proc it, you said you're not playing cowl
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?
I thought/heard toxic embellishment procced it?
toxic embellishment doesn't do fire damage
so it wouldn't proc it
that's why we played cowl, to proc the ring
Last vault gave me the 431 ring with the shield 🙈
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
gotcha
Probably a thing to compensate for additional sources
Just not „BiS“ 
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?
You never had to play it at all. Sepsis is now better for some profiles since it got fixed to work with mastery
would you be able to link a import string for the build you are using? @steel ridge

ty all
it says fragments earned 150/150 that means i cant get anymore this week?
how much do they increase next reset in this case?
that's a sim question, but honestly it doesn't matter either way. It's swapping a bit of crit for a bit of mastery
150 next reset
so each reset +150?
yeppers
Thnx Thnx
each week we can get 10 crests
yep
also its not guaranteed to get 15 fragments everytime on a timed key right?
it was 12-15 or smth i think
12 for a timed key, 5 for an untimed key I thought
ya
oh so u never get 15 ??
12 for timed, 5 for untimed
or in raids i think it was
raid you get 10 for the first 7 bosses and 15 for the last 2
aah right
thanks!
anyways it will be easy to farm the fragments anyways
so nothing to worry about 😂
Is wowanalyzer any good still? Trying to figure out my 36 parse on Hc magmorax 
zerg runs n shit 😄
and know the dungeons
ya our good friend @main vessel fixed it up for assassination
🙂
Did they tell us which week they will remove fragment cap?
prob after a few months as usual
I'd imagine 10.1.5
At the earliest
last season they didn’t remove it with .5

shortly after tho
absolutely
10.1.5. Probably in 6-8 weeks or something
What a Chad. Although it says everything was fine 😬 I’ll do more investigation I thinks. Thank you
i assume the idea is to make 6 month cycles
going away from the SL 8 month ones
thank god
if there are more things that I can update on WoWA, please let me know 🙂
it'll go in my backlog
Any sin updates you have mister topple (to fix the spec)
Appreciate your work. Always a useful tool. I will say it used to give a bit more of a run down of the “basics” of a rotation and where you compared to that. I noticed it was still like that for some other specs - but the layout was different for Assa. Not sure if that’s a new intended thing or if I just need to look around a bit! Thanks again pal
you're beautiful and ily
how's that for your backlog

Damn and they got a beacon drop
it's a new approach we're calling the Guide (old version was the Checklist); it's better in multiple ways but is missing some of the functionality of the old style. if there are particular things you'd want called out in a similar manner, I can definitely look into it
the old way was frequently just "you could have pressed X 34 times but you only pressed it 24 times, git gud" and couldn't do additional context like "you cast Envenom at 2 CP but it was Animacharged so it was fine"
I see, it’s definitely better in that sense. Was a bit concerned at a 32 log (18 bracket) and it says I did everything great lol
ST build for HC Sark?
Talents are a crutch
Is it best to wait until we ghet aspect crests to make our slimy boots? Or can we make it at 424 ish?
Mythic +
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?
Gonna cost you the same amount of crests - provided you don’t do upgrade with Wyrm first
Sim it but probs still good
i did and its a 3k increase
People keep telling me to wait and i dont understand why
i'd assume the reason for waiting is the finite availability of crests right now
Fomo in case of balance changes maybe but I can’t see it happening. And even if it does if you’re farming 10 a week you’re not gonna be far behind enough to notice
oh, maybe. didn't expect we'd still be concerned about tuning changes
What do I put my toxic armor patch? is there a best item
the slimy expulsion bois
assuming you made that
You can do anything it doesn’t matter
you see, spreadsheet said you can get X ilvl by week3 if you upgrade this very specific way!!!!!! (just ignore that you need item drops in all slots, tier items on all slots and perfect trinkets) so you should not use them at all
As long as it doesn’t interrupt your tier 

🙂
You can't put an embellishment on an embellishment item
i was trold u can add the patch to boots cuz its already embellished.
Are we crafting a chest pice since tier stats are ass?
i was thinkn bracers but the chest stats are doo doo
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
So what about the chest craft tho @balmy condor
Sorry I was legitimately confused lmao
what, no
ok im just trying to figure out best craft. My brain says bracers
also whats ur thoughts on waiting to craft the boots?
yes im going boots first but im being told to wait for aspect crests form 16s
i'm in shambles trying to figure out the proc rate of call to suffering. it seems to proc only when it wants to, qualifying events be damned
My sims say its a 3k increase now even
Yoo, sepsis icon
Thank you Whispyr
hoping that outlaw gets Dreadblades icon some day
everyday i pray for outlaws downfall
i'd say nothing personal
but it is 100% personal bias

But the real threat is sub, sin and outlaw should join forces to dunk on sub players

how does it feel to be the significantly worse version of fury warrior
at least assassination is uniquely dogshit
unlike outlaw
My friend who plays fury warrior would be offended
he probably can't read anyway
it's fine
outlaw rogue is for fury enjoyers who have working brains

He's actually working on a PhD in chemical engineering no joke lmao
yeah and I'm a lawyer
and I'm dumb as fuck
I still play wow
there's zero chance I'm intelligent
same actually
Good thing you got sin to play then :)
Hell yea brother
can't get any weapons to drop from keys
and the 1handers in raid are reserved for the real ST melee classes
like DH and enhance
havoc simming for 145k ST
don't believe their lies anymore
I never did
blessed
I played DH in BFA, I know they are secretly OP every tier
is this really a thing?
sure is
i got from hc sakreth or whatever his name is Pog
sakaka
now you can craft your slimy boots
theyve been crafted already i knew i'd drop them from hc
Im the reason your boots are slimy 
i am Jesus
this is why you're #1 rouge in my heart
Zenith tier is cursed for me
rogue bois can someone suggest me nice addon for group finder like if someone decline me I dont wanna apply agane

Premade group filter
QQ guys... I'd need to use gear compare to check sims on Toxic patch before having it?
hmm I had premade group FINDER I was like this is shit
How do i sim embellishments wtf i cant figure it out lol
do you have any crafted gear in your bags
No... Would i have to add the life binder wrist line of code to my bag in order to sim it?
yes
waist=,id=193407,gem_id=192922,bonus_id=8836/8840/8902/9405/8846/8791/9365/9436,crafted_stats=32/49,crafting_quality=5
here
have my belt
Then i can add embellishment via top gear?
can i soak the shrapnel bombs on Zskarn?
Evasion does not work no
ok that explain the 500k i took 
To say you can’t would be lying; you absolutely can. And feint does work.
But it absolutely will pop cheat
everything can be soaked once...
True
but like it'll pop cheat and healers will have to pump healing to manage the dot
hello guys, i drop Dragonfire Bomb Dispenser in NM, did i up iLVL instant ?
sure
you'll be drowning in crests in a week or two
very good trinket
ideally you get 2 trinkets from m+
so its just flight stones to upgrade
but it is what it is
Ok thank u
do i get the dmg buff on garrote after using sepsis?
yes
thank you
i think whenever adds get involved (like Zsarn) sbs gains a lot of value
not so fast sepsis enthusiast
in what way
the bonus combo point?
because those adds should melt
if they live long enough for the sbs dot to matter
you're not killing it on mythic
Im not killing it on mythic right now for sure
maybe my team doesnt focus them enough
crimson tempest or nah on forgotten experiments?
crimson tempest on forgotten experiments
big chunk of the fight is at least 2T cleave
zskarn is hard to pug...
yes, point being?
people play less than ideal talents all the time
i got 4pc ;3
I just copy pasted the rank 1 talent build for experiments, worked okay
ok someone just told me i bought "pvp item"
i dont know what that is
oh no
oh no
yes
i didnt know it was a thing

ok what if i open a ticket?
I would
the gm will laugh at you
im losing the lambent armor kit
just in case
i beg him i tell him i will also lose 10k gold and i accept it
(big sum of moneys)
its ok im benched for next 2 bosses anyways
i see why
poisoned edge is the 2P spellname, right?
yeppers
What tier slot should i avoid out of all 5?
none
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....
@gusty mirage is this good? youre a lawyer you know this kind of shit
@balmy condor why sepsis suck for me ? XD
looks great, bench time
oh yea im getting my fish to eat and chill
maybe watch barry
only watched 2 episodes
pins?
i know bro was a joke

Is Mythic Icon just OP? With all three it still sims almost equal compared to Nelth trinket.
I guess once people start swapping it out it loses a lot of value
Tanks and heals drop icon p quickly.
bossie down
assa seemed pretty good tbh
no
assuming you hit 2k now
if you hit 2k before they fixed it you havent gotten it

so the bis crafted is the wrist ? then
Thank god i didnt
So i can only get 1 omni token from the 3 alternetives?
Or can i get 3 of them by doing all 3 alternatives?
(2k + hc clear + challenger ll )
1 omni for whatever you do first
also my guildies that did 2k pre fix just had their token in the mail
Noob question: what should we put the tox patch on?
2k
Thanks dad
Wish we would have seen assa in at least 1 fight by top 5 teams unless I missed it
we stacking haste gems for sin?
no
Generally crit / mastery
sim it my dude

Did you play cheat or elusiveness
cheat
I’m starting rashok tonight 
^^ gl
Quick question for all, I saw that sepsis is now good. when do we slot it in our opener/rotation?
So uh like... sin ST damage pretty good right now on heroic (sarkerath heroic. boss damage)
the opener is in the pins
thanks
if you can kill experiments...
You can dodge a wrench?
Let's see the parses
If you tunneling and not doing bombs, sure
of course
rogues don't do bombs, come on 😄
If you're parsing a 99 and the mage is getting a green 31, it doesn't say too much
mage died and had 70% uptime 

so why is there a sepsis icon but not an sbs one
Amen
its the exsang one

take it or leave it
why isn't there an AP icon
add one
I literally can't fuu's asleep
role reacts have to be parsed into the bot
he'd have to change the code
hey, my WA isn't triggering the emporewed garrote thing after sepsis
is it a bug ?
are you asking why your wa isn't tracking empowered garrote
or why sepsis isn't triggering empowered garrote
that didn't actually clarify
anything
you just repeated yourself
is it a weakaura question
or is it a game
pick one
Is sepsis triggering empowered garrote ?
yes
well my WA isn't triggering the green bubble (turns green when emporewed garrote)
sorry to hear that
but it does when i use classic methods
I have found it nvm
dont know why it doesn't act normal on sepsis proc
I would assume cause your WA doesn't track sepsis in the list of sources for empowered garrote
but at least it is working so thanks :p
Guessing he using Luxthos WA. It doesnt track sepsis garrotes unless that changed earlier today

I would be surprised if he even touched any of the sin stuff
so much sarcasm here
I’m not being sarcastic
I’m just suggesting it so you can check back every now and then to see if he updated it
whispyr be sarcastic to me
stop flirting with whispyr in front of me, it makes me jealous
Stop lusting for whispyr in front of me, it makes me jealous
listing?
Bro autocorrect 
Gross
I’m going to turn off the lights and say sepsis at the bathroom mirror three times to see if whispyr shows up
best you're gonna get is seli doing a disappointed glare
which may just be his regular face as he's german
I literally just posted the changelog
showing that it isn't
think someone posted the workaround here before
its just not in the actual pack
maybe notter
i thought someone last night was fkin around with it and mentioned it was up to date. they confused ig
always did
cus i was alliance for 70% of my wow time
heroism>bloodlust

That was mean
But also kinda true
Du Schlingel
Yes notter posted how to get it working
using Luxthos pack

Question, does every character gets the free token for the tier?
or just the first character?
I've also made a WA to show Sepsis is active
https://wago.io/Lgy47ma7G
I should probably adapt it to Outlaw's ambush proc as well.
This was a blessing in my raid last night thank you.
Happy to hear that 🙂
i'm at 38% crit surely I can swap to howing runes right? right?
what was the opener for sepsis again
Garrote - SND - Sepsis - Ambush - 5cp rupture- then is it shiv - DM- then echoing repair or no
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 ?
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
- to use early + combopoints for env:)
Good point, okay so it is not part of the main opener but little 2nd opener 😛
Thanks again
does CoS work on Zskarn bombs?
if you're down cataclysmic
you can possibly feint survive with cheat up
otherwise 💀

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?
large data
Thanks, that's what I was thinking

You’re also incomparable 
c:
according to my logs I'm very comparable
average in fact
gonna miss running sepsis in m+ next week
you're ill
I may be ill; but its keeping me on top of the boards and cranking on bosses >;3
you don't play with a shadow priest and it show
I'm usually the shadow :/
topping the meters is primarily due to other dps licking the floor from learning how the fights work this week.
man you do not need sepsis to crank bosses in m+ lol
its +2.5% ST, -1% aoe, -0.5% dslice sim for me, and it seems to be working better for me with pugs than standard.
over shrouded?
take doomblade/sepsis over shrouded. yep
disgusting
oh for sure
yeah i just am still running m+ build
Experiments feels pretty good as sin tbh, the 3 execute windows comes in handy
lusting on 2 makes it the only one without a deathmark which is kinda tragic tbh if you deathmark in execute tho
still lots of fights with good targets for execute that have high hp and high prio
Has anyone else noticed that they can re-stealth on Experiments in between the bosses?
Yes
how important is windfury for your damage
You can check bloodmallet I think for sims but WF is pretty good for rogues
it's like 2500 dps or something
is dropping exsang to take up the first FoK talent worth it for Sark? or is it group dependant?
It's doing about 3-4% of my damage wiping at 20%ish
if fok is doing 3-4% of your damage
you would have to double your fok damage by talenting into pk
or whatever it is
the first fok talent
I'm not sure 5% crit and 15% damage is going to double your fok damage
probably not 🙂 ty

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
If you're playing sin, you gotta so sin things and stick to boss.
Adds will be dealt with by more aoe capable specs.
