restive falcon

gonna wait till timewalking chest and heroic raid to take

#

beacon is 1400 gain and essence with max which my guild has is 1500

balmy condor

restive falcon
#

yea

balmy condor
#

#

you must have some dogass trinket

green pier
#

because i've been baited into trinkets on other characters by sims only to find out they are "simbait" - figured people might just have more hands on advice.

#

plus i can ugprade my essence to 441

Every on use trinket is sim bait cause I don't press my trinkets

Dude the number of times I catch my zskarn trinket at 3 stacks is nuts

#

Like my puzzlebox is about to come up, what have I been doing for the past 3 minutes?

Good news, you get to craft a patch there next week.

fuck fragment

any of the other 7 trinkets

#

that are better

i killed the elder with 10 different alts and couldn't get a single piece of loot, are they bugged? Do you have to kill them without a raid?

#

@balmy condor what remaining fight duration is acceptable for me to use exsang after deathmark

gray horizon
#

Thanks for all your work lately btw bby. Gonna try out sepsis finally without tier and see how it goes. Cranks a bit of dps for me

balmy condor
lapis osprey
balmy condor
#

never

lapis osprey
#

even if the fight would end without the bleeds running out

strange python
#

Cause I planned to stay sub and it's meh for sub. Until rotten ruined it

lapis osprey
#

reminds me I need to restore my tentacle trinket

balmy condor
#

exsanguinating your deathmark

#

is troll

lapis osprey
#

Don't you get more burst in half the time

balmy condor
#

you also lose your doubled bleeds

#

in half the time

So it’s good if the boss only lives for 7 more seconds

Uhhh umm welll uhhh

I don’t play exsang

Thoughts on Ragnaros Trinket from timewalking, upgraded to 437?

balmy condor
#

probably mid

#

how do you even use the Trinket from Kazzara...? I got it from the weekly.

#

ye but the boss wont live full DM duration

woeful socket
balmy condor
#

you're arguing that deathmark->exsang would be better than exsang->deathmark in the case where the boss won't live full dm duration

gusty mirage
marble hemlock
#

yes

#

cuz the deathmark dmg itself

#

would be a gain

#

cuz you get more ticks from it

balmy condor
#

and you think that's better than getting the extra gcd on exsang

#

or

#

hear me out

marble hemlock
#

hey

balmy condor
#

exsanguinating

marble hemlock
#

you asked for an example

balmy condor
#

a couple of gcds

#

before deathmark

marble hemlock
#

im just providing the goods, dont shoot the messenger

balmy condor
#

your example doesn't meet the second criteria

runic hinge

#

yeah well i stopped reading halfway through

#

im doing lost ark stuff okay

gusty mirage

just buy your booba skins already

#

In the sepsis opener, do you also wait until sepsis is at 8 seconds before shiving in order to get the shiv bonus on the damage at the end of sepsis?

keen spruce
#

on the 2nd one?

#

ig you could shrugFreg

storm forum
#

it kind of naturally happens that way anyways

#

in the opener you go sepsis -> vendetta -> shiv

#

and that shiv happens after 2 seconds after sepsis is cast

limber lion
storm forum
#

and outside of the opener, you go sepsis -> garotte -> shiv

limber lion
#

Only kinda matters for single shiv, but only for the first shiv. You just send it on cd regardless

hoary kernel
#

I'm talented for single shiv

keen spruce
#

2 shiv gang Shivergers

hoary kernel
#

(//////////)

limber lion
#

Also matters whether you play Exsang or not

hoary kernel
#

using Sepsis + Exsang and in the opener visual it says to shive right after Sepsis. That's why it confused me if I should hold shiv 2 seconds after sepsis

#

unless maybe exsang shortens sepsis?

runic hinge
#

Oh snap the visual opener is up. Maybe I’ll try playing exsang now

#

Bless

wide ridge
#

wait, what talent do we drop for exsang on sepsis build?

#

cut to the chase? idk

prisma monolithBOT
jovial adder
#

is rogue getting a rework for 10.1.5?

oak sky
#

supposedly

lapis osprey
lapis osprey
royal lantern
#

that probably doesnt make any difference anyway

lapis osprey
#

Well it makes it so shiv bonus nature damage clips the last tick of sepsis no?

#

Sepsis is 10 sec & shiv is 8, there's 1 gcd in between

sweet dawn
#

Yeah but the tick in that GCD is missed right? So you either get the last tick with shiv or you get the one that happens while you garrote

#

Doesn't really matter afaik

limber lion
#

Get what while you garrote?

strange python
#

As is typical for rogues, were being left to last in the patch cycle.

silk bane
#

idk man its hard to fix rogue i guess.

#

with fire and arcane there was a clear direction of what was wrong

#

and they could fix it

#

if you dont know what youre evern trying to fix then its really hard to fix it

sweet dawn
#

The idea is if you Sepsis > Shiv > Garrote you miss the last tick of sepsis with the shiv buff. So the proposed solution is Sepsis > Garrote > Shiv so the shiv debuff lasts til the last tick of sepsis. But I'm saying I don't think it matters because you miss covering a tick of sepsis regardless of whether you do it as 2nd or 3rd in the sequence

#

Unless I'm just being stupid

royal lantern
limber lion
silk bane
limber lion
#

It's not that you're buffing up the DoT damage, delaying Shiv allows you to have the Shiv buff for the explosion at the end

silk bane
#

but they dont know what tjhey want these specs to do

#

is my gues

limber lion
#

"... they suffer an additional 25k damage"

#

That's what you're aiming to buff by delaying Shiv by one gcd.

sweet dawn
#

Yes but is it NATURE damage?

limber lion
#

Lol

#

It is.

sweet dawn
#

Which would make it buffed by shiv

#

ah oke

#

well fair enough then my b

limber lion
#

Yes

#

That's why it's a thing to consider

frigid kestrel
#

Im dying

lyric cave
#

timewalk trinkets anygood?

limber lion
#

Pretty mid

frigid kestrel
#

the first sentence linked says

sweet dawn
#

Yeah but I take things very literally and read the explosion as just "damage"

#

and assumed it was just daamge

#

and not nature

#

soryr

storm belfry
sweet dawn
#

sorry*

frigid kestrel
#

Its all good , thats a fair point

limber lion

Nothing's just "damage"

#

yo guys, is there anyone who does not use Onyx annulet ? / my 2 stat rings simming higher atm

#

ı m just surprisd

somber fractal
#

am i crazy or do i remember them calling our rogues as getting a bunch of changes for 10.1.5?

flint tusk
#

It was bait. We got too excited so are back on the naughty step for another 3 months.

#

Explains why rogue pop is so low.
Giganerfed at the start of expacs then left to rot. Besides a few shining moments by happenstance.

#

Yes i’m dooming.

grim jay
#

Rogue Pop always is low

#

And stop dooming, patch is way in the distance

somber fractal
#

i think it's a joke around the blizz office at this point. "hey lets name them along with mages and paladins as getting big balance changes then go radio silent again and push out more warlock stuff"

grim jay
#

Fire mage changes are pretty good so I'm interested in the other stuff they have in store

pulsar dirge
#

But sub has been stable from Shadow lands and onwards . It's just us who are left to rot.

vale shore
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
wind condor
#

is our second stealth cast after sepsis empowered like the garrote? or do we rip an ambush

sweet dawn
#

Increased damage, no extra combo points

wind condor
#

okay so its good to use both on garrotes then?

west swallow

!whispyr

we still going sophic devotion on both weapons?

balmy condor
#

yes

gray hazel
#

is the Firelands TW raid worth running for anything?

balmy condor
#

not that we think right now

wind condor
#

do we hold sepsis for every DM window?

balmy condor
#

no

wind condor
#

i luv u whispyr

balmy condor

<#

restive falcon
#

seeing no rogues use essence is good sight i think?

#

even tho its a 2k gain for me rn

gaunt moat
balmy condor
#

I am really stupid

strange python
#

If you want quick changes be a paladin or warrior or warlock or druid

gaunt moat
#

At best it'll be minor % changes if anything even.

storm belfry
#

Classic WoW players on suicide watch

strange python
#

I mean. I expect something a little more than that given the wording. But yeah, it's frustrating that for six years now we've been consistently the last class to be touched

gaunt moat
#

When they made sin changes for 10.0.5 they didn't wait for last second.
Nor have they in any other spec.
Thet don't do surprise last second big changes. They test on PTR.

restive falcon
strange python
#

Well idk if it'll be last second. But yeah it's always the last class to get attention

balmy condor
#

and it's not the best

restive falcon
#

it just feels bad to take essence

balmy condor
#

good placeholder

restive falcon
#

yea thats what i told them, i;d run bomb + frag/beacon

#

and essence will be filler over torch

gaunt moat
#

I've already removed any expactations once we didn't show up on ptr patch notes after rogue tuning was announced.

At least the research being done spiced up the rotation, so that'a fun.

But then whispyr researched too much and de-spiced it again with exsang exsangery

wind condor
#

week 3 of not seeing a single bomb drop in normal or heroic lol

#

hopefully we get 3 from mythic tn lol

strange python
#

I'm the resident doomer. I do think big changes can come later in the cycle than week 2. But I do hope we see something in the next few weeks.

#

It was very jarring to me when realz made fun of doomers two weeks before the patch when we hadn't had tuning or changes in 7 months.

gaunt moat
#

I read it a few days later.
Now you'll have to excuse me, but realz's takes were really bad and out of touch with the community.

A very small community.
Because not many play sin on mythic.
And the tuning and design are a big part of it.

#

But he's a dev and not a community manager.
so he's not great at interacting with the community.
maybe that's why he left.

hi guys , does anyone have the muti / ambush macro with the GSE

#

🥹

gaunt moat
#

GSE?

main monolith
#

yes, they had pinned it a long time ago but i accidentally deleted it

honest mantle
#

when does one press iridius fragment?

gaunt moat

sorry i'm meant to ask what does GSE mean

gaunt moat
restive falcon
#

am i really gonna take essence over beacon man

tranquil imp
balmy condor
#

yeh but all timewalking stuff is max 437

tranquil imp
#

Just depends on how bad you need the ring lol I assume not everyone has a 437 ring even

#

But I feel like this tier really brings to light the importance of Stat weights when you can get a similar piece with different stats and upgrade it so easily.

timber pawn
#

can you just macro the Dragonfire bomb dispenser to mutilate so it throws everytime its on CD?

marsh crystal
#

Is the matrix stabilizer trinket from firelands not implemented on raidbots or is it just that bad?

timber pawn
#

seems like itd be optimal

#

its off GCD and completely passiver

balmy condor
#

it would also brick your opener if you run double on use

#

but yes

#

optimal

timber pawn
#

would be no combo you'd want to run double on use this tier

balmy condor
#

bomb dispenser + beacon doesn't exist I guess

#

fragment doesn't exist

dark token
#

Or even anything plus old grief or puzzle box

#

Lots of double on use

timber pawn
#

eh thats right beacon is on use

#

I thought was passive, much sadge

strange python
#

Double on use is fine. You just send it when the sim says. Or you run nelth trink

timber pawn
#

Nelth Trink / Bomb Dispensor is BiS

split grail
#

There's no reason not to spam the bomb dispenser on raid bosses, right?

balmy condor

correct

blazing jewel
#

yes

strange python
#

Hmm

#

We had like four people over 120 and barely beat enrage. Our low-end must be bad

hexed basin
#

what do we macro Anvil trink to?

blazing jewel
#

probably didnt soak enough and caused the enrage early

marsh crystal
#

Hmm 411 CoS ring is simming higher then a 424 ring from firelands with the same stats

balmy condor
#

yeah that makes sense

#

cos ring has an effect

#

the firelands ring doesn't

bitter cargo
#

where would we use beacon in our rotation

balmy condor
#

whenever you're feeling fruity

strange python
#

Depends on your other trinket

marsh crystal
#

I just would have thought that the cos ring wouldn’t have been as good still

strange python
#

Do you have fragment? Then after CDs. Don't have fragment? Send it.

balmy condor
#

things with effects real good

How is it that sin wound up less cancer than the others

What black magic curse did you put on sub and outlaw

This sepsis build fucks

Feels really nice

i have beacon and bomb

im just trying to use it as early as possible i guess

#

no fragment yet

somber fractal
#

sorry if this has been asked a million times but does sepsis not get consumed by ambush anymore?

balmy condor
#

it does

#

it doesn't get consumed from blindside though

@balmy condor do you make the visual openers for the faq

@balmy condor ooohhhhhhh

so close...

#

i went exsang lmfao

#

the timings were so tight omfg

balmy condor
#

I think exsang on that kill time

#

Is actually just bad

strange bronze
#

is assasination in a better place than the other 2 rogue specs in S2?

hollow vault
#

fairrr sending a natty 3m exsang feels v awk

hollow vault
#

and had to send dm > exsang on the last one

strange bronze
#

im playing sub and the 4 set is kind of subpar and not really simming better than running 2 and 2

#

what would be your opinion on best spec?

hollow vault
#

sub imo

balmy condor
strange bronze
#

sorry kind of asking around

balmy condor
#

Sub is for sure the best spec atm

hollow vault
#

i will not abandon my beloved

#

ive just been hearing and seeing tier lists putting sub last

#

and I dont understand

#

they're silly gooses

what are you doing with your second portion of sepsis on the opener?

I don't know if I am supposed to let my exsang garrote fall completely off before I use the second part, or just send

clever sapphire
#

Let it fall

#

Then garrote

ionic matrix
#

thx

balmy condor
#

Should line up very naturally as well

#

It actually doesn’t feel like shit

#

Kinda odd

signal badger
#

lol sad, was any other embellishment simming close enough to make boots not bis?

balmy condor
#

Yeah it should mean the toxic thorn boots are better, but those are over-simming as well

#

So

#

Kind of a lose lose

signal badger
#

sounds like Sin, tyvm!

balmy condor
#

Ye

bold lintel
#

is Seal of Diurna's Chosen going to remain bis ring for us entire patch? 20 ilvls upgrades with bis stats are a dps loss in sims

balmy condor
#

No

#

I already replaced mine today

bold lintel
#

yeah my vault kicked me in the nuts 20ilvl upgrades on head and ring both are worse cause the fire ring

balmy condor
#

Yeh I replaced my cowl week… 1 I think

#

Idk it’s kinda all mushing together

bold lintel
#

did you go for decay infusion on head piece or normal piece

balmy condor
#

I got my fire ring procced from bomb dispenser which I got on first kill

#

So must’ve been week 1

#

And then replaced cowl with tier

#

Crafted my toxic patch

bold lintel
#

got bomb dispenser as well but raidbots still say its not enough to replace cowl

balmy condor
#

And then got a 441 haste/crit ring, and that was the final nail in the coffin

bold lintel
#

also cherry on top my alt with 1 option got Irideus Fragment

balmy condor
glad vapor
#

Another PTR patch and zero changes for us.

balmy condor
#

That’s a factual statement

fleet pagoda
#

ngl the sepsis changes and fragment lining up with exsang/being instant is making this tier a lot more fun to play with

#

like exsang feels better to push with sepsis

balmy condor
#

Why does it sound like you’re pressing exsang at 3 min

steel ridge
#

because it lines with sepsis!

balmy condor
#

I’m concerned

#

Every time someone starts talking about exsang

fleet pagoda
#

ahhh whoops haha

balmy condor
#

My brain scans like one of those terminator robots

fleet pagoda
#

i expressed that in the inverse way i should ahve

balmy condor
#

For signs of 3 min exsang usage

#

I’m like skynet

fleet pagoda
#

i'm not i promise! i'm a 4 minute enjoyer

balmy condor
#

Good good

#

You will be spared when the robots take over

And set to hard manual labor

ornate dawn

But shiny button glow must press

balmy condor

Change your wa to make it only glow when the cooldown of Deathmark is <5 seconds remaining

#

That way you can train yourself like Pavlov’s dog

Are slimy boots over simming in general on ST or is that just other classes?

#

Caught him offguardbasegcat

bold lintel
cursive dagger
#

Just for other classes*

balmy condor
balmy condor
cursive dagger
#

Ahhh so for classes that are haste enjoyers they are a little worse?

balmy condor
#

God bless

balmy condor
#

Might be a toxic thorn angle

cursive dagger
#

I’m guessing that didn’t affect like sub/sin to much?

balmy condor
#

But it’s super minimal

cursive dagger
#

Ahh

balmy condor
#

Well sin likes haste

#

And sub doesn’t

sick aspen
#

re the above question about the slimy boots, if both are simming incorrectly do we just avoid crafting boots at the moment?

balmy condor
#

If you want a consistent boot that could be slightly worse, craft slimy

#

If you’re trying to min-max but at the risk that it might be worse with some rng, craft toxic

#

They’re both fine

#

You’re never going to notice a difference either way

cursive dagger
#

Fantastic

balmy condor
#

Only difference you’ll ever notice is the simdps being like 300 lower or whatever

sick aspen
#

ah ok, wasn't sure if like, shoulders were going to come out left field or something

balmy condor
#

In which case stop comparing them

#

And just be happy

#

we are playing wow my guy

bold lintel
#

we are not meant to be happy

It’s def between boots

#

i dont like the dragon mount

#

flying is annoying

bold lintel
#

fair but counter argument

#

my vault is shit

clever sapphire
#

i wanna press autowalk and go take a toilet break

royal lantern
#

@clever sapphire ita ok, everyone can have some objectively shit takes once in a while

clever sapphire
#

i like how they look tho 🤔

bold lintel
#

remind me of a druid post on wow forums saying that dragon flying is unplayable for druids cause they cannot shape shift into their travel forms

clever sapphire
#

druids are the only spec that can mount in vortex

#

they should just enjoy that

grim jay
#

If you dont like the sarkareth dragon skin you are down bad

#

Objectively perfect visuals

clever sapphire
#

never looked at it

#

cause im not getting it

clever sapphire
#

cause that way its just like the old mount flight

royal lantern
#

i mean

#

every dungeon except HoI has a flightpoint

#

use them lol

clever sapphire
#

nah that costs gold

royal lantern
#

they where always faster than normal flying anyway

clever sapphire
#

you think i have gold to spare

bold lintel
#

pickpocket some gold of mobs so you can afford public transport

royal lantern
bold lintel
#

yeah but killing is illegal man

clever sapphire
#

i havent done a single world quest since the expansion started

royal lantern
#

we loot 20-30gold from every enemy, worldquest reward 1k+ and people talk about flightmasters cost kekman

bold lintel
#

in blood elf voice "That would be stealing"

clever sapphire
#

i get my money from selling plants, when im so bored that i fly around collecting them

bold lintel
#

and Dragonflight being so fun you are never bored so you don't have gold

#

i get that

clever sapphire
#

i dont even know where my gold went tbf XD

#

btw can i upgrade rings cheaper if i had one 447 ring?

bold lintel
#

i was right

#

it does feel good

clever sapphire
#

or do i have to have 2 447 rings for that

bold lintel
#

Mr Whispering sir if irideus fragment is fake inflated are our to go trinkets bomb dispenser and beacon?

raven merlin
clever sapphire
balmy condor
#

doesn't mean frag is bad

#

just means it's not giga bis op omega donger like it might seem atm

clever sapphire
#

but its still bis from dungeons correct?

bold lintel
#

if its inflated dice might be better?

clever sapphire
#

well imma just wait for the final statement about it, probably gonna be pinned anyways

#

not like i get any trinket besides the brackenhide oe

#

one

balmy condor
#

might be a little worse than dice

#

but I would probably say they're about equal

#

and I just replaced my 447 vault dice with a 441 heroic beacon

#

so

clever sapphire
#

pog

balmy condor
#

if that gives you some indication of trinket values

clever sapphire
#

i already know that raid is op

#

and m+ is meh

clever sapphire
#

wouldnt it be fun if their solution to assa rogue being "bad" in M+ be that IC now hits 10 targets instead of 8 and AP hits 6 extra targets instead of 4

vestal wren
#

think a easy solution would be to just put more power in the bleeds

steel ridge
clever sapphire
#

ye i remember that

#

imagine academy tree room with uncapped IC

steel ridge
#

unholy dk sends its regards

clever sapphire
#

probably ye

steel ridge
#

i mean, fixing assassination is not hard, you just have to take some risks

#

we talked about that at length, but yeah i am tired of it tbh

#

just playing the spec as is and thats fine for me

clever sapphire
#

oh im just bored waiting for patchnotes so im thinking what they would change that they actually would

steel ridge
#

and i am well past that point already 😄

clever sapphire
#

understandable

#

gimme deathspike and im a happy man

steel ridge
#

i lack a comfortable bind for that, CT and SBS are on the same button for me kekman

#

cause usually you dont have both

clever sapphire
#

how did you play assa on council O.o

steel ridge
#

i played AP/IC on council, theres no sbs in that build is it?

clever sapphire
#

i think there is 🤔

steel ridge
#

my 99 mythic parse tells me i did it okish

clever sapphire
#

or i played a wrong build i dunno, but i remember having sbs there

#

so i had to move CT to a different bind cause i also use sbs and CT on same bind xD

steel ridge
#

i tried that and couldnt find anything that wouldnt blow up my muscle memory

#

its kinda fucked up with all the new options we got for DF

clever sapphire
#

i like it, the only hard part was figuring out where to put my covenant abilities when i have 2

#

cause i always used the same keybind for all of them

#

F was for the covenant abilities, now its for ER and all the others go to 5

clever sapphire
#

and on council i had to put CT on T cause sbs was on 5 already xD

steel ridge
#

if they remove SnD i can free up a good bind

#

dont ask why i have snd on a good bind xD

clever sapphire
#

oh that would mess with my brain sooooo hard

#

i have it on shift 1

#

so also an easy bind xD

steel ridge
#

when i am on my fury warrior i laugh in less binds

#

while still having a perfect rotational flow

clever sapphire
#

i touched my mage again yesterday, arcane had 20 buttons, i switched to fire and i was like "okay 6 buttons and rest is utility?"

steel ridge
#

😄

#

firemage doesnt have many buttons, but its hecking annoying to play

#

the changes on PTR are sounding very very good

#

especially that SKB is going to be 30 seconds instead of 15

clever sapphire
#

only thing i know is that i hate waiting for fireball or pyroblast to land to know if it critted or not

steel ridge
#

need to gear up my mage a bit for 10.1.5

royal lantern
#

class traitor

steel ridge
#

i am an altaholic

royal lantern
#

mate, i can understand that, but a RANGED DPS??

clever sapphire
#

i play arcane when i play mage so its kinda the same as assa, usually good in heroic weeks than falls off

steel ridge
#

but i have more hours on rogue than all of them combined, by a mile

clever sapphire
#

also the hate child of mages

steel ridge
#

since alts are only for flavour, i only like fire and dont care about arcane at all

clever sapphire
steel ridge
#

all the melees have shit short arms

#

thats the main culprit

grim jay
#

I found a gate to Altered Time monkaS

clever sapphire
#

isnt that the mage discord

steel ridge
#

mage discord is garbo

clever sapphire
#

its not that mage discord is garbo, its that pretty much every other classes discord is worse compared to rogue

#

cause rogue discord is poggers

turbid heath
tawny chasm
steel ridge
#

yeah true, ravenholdt is like magnitudes better in terms of TC/FAQ Quality than the other discords

turbid heath
#

simmed to take the trinket, probs gonna wait til after raid tmr 😄

steel ridge
#

and we have whispyr, our catgirl overlord.

clever sapphire
blazing jewel
#

I feel like the sim sheets the tcs put out is better than the entirety of most class discords

clever sapphire
#

cause as far as i know the raid trinket is similiar to council trinket, the best when you have all buffs

turbid heath
clever sapphire
turbid heath
#

lmaoo

clever sapphire
#

they dont have to know all your secrets

clever sapphire
royal lantern
blazing jewel
#

meanwhile in rogue discord the tcs will stare at apls for 4 hours on 800mg of caffeine to get .01 gain

#

and explain in detail how they got that gain

clever sapphire
#

patch notes arrive, there is a pin 10 seconds later how much of a gain/lose it is, what new talents to take/not take, new bis trinkets

steel ridge
blazing jewel
#

and the best part of it all they tolerate us shitposting them kekman

royal lantern
clever sapphire
#

was there a slowmode when they posted latest patch notes without rogue changes? Im not sure if i overslept it or if we evolved

royal lantern
#

nah

#

cus nobody plays assa anymore anyway

clever sapphire
#

i guess 5 people cant type enough to result in slowmode nerdge

shell osprey
#

hey! i play assassin still

#

even in high keys, still love its playstyle over either specs

clever sapphire
#

relatable

#

my group forced me to play sub for a few keys cause i really wanted that second 20 vault slot. Guess what, my hand was hurting because i was only spamming like 2 buttons xD

#

i know its more, but aoe felt like im spamming 2 buttons

normal mist
#

Because it is that xD

#

And a occasional sectec

shell osprey
#

i just wish they would give sin more love, like lower IC cd...or give some more energy regen

clever sapphire
#

hmmm lover IC cd would just make ap even less relevant

#

also you probably would never have a problem with having dots up

shell osprey
#

feel like sin's resource usage is so high on ST , feels fine with tons of bleeds on of course

#

lower ic cd would make pulling in m+ SOO much nicer

clever sapphire
#

well chain pulls would feel nicer sure

balmy condor
#

lower ic cd would also completely demolish any multi-dotting whatsoever

#

it's like saying you're taking cocaine to get off of heroine

clever sapphire
#

i like IC as it is tbh

#

i can put up all the initial dots

#

and if pull goes on longer i will have to refresh a few

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

IC should be like a 2 min cooldown

royal lantern
#

its so braindead, it actually hurts

balmy condor
#

bleeds need buffing in aoe

clever sapphire
balmy condor
#

the balance is sorta okay in single target

#

but gotta be stronger in aoe

clever sapphire
balmy condor
#

and then you nerf ic cd to compensate

#

so it's not actually just all your aoe

#

it's just a cooldown

grim jay
clever sapphire
#

ye IC would be nice as an actual cooldown, so you would have to think about which pull to use it on

#

and not just always use it on cooldown

royal lantern
balmy condor
royal lantern
#

(ye fuck IC)

royal lantern
clever sapphire
balmy condor
clever sapphire
#

well actually it already feels more funnel than sub

royal lantern
#

doesnt assa allready "funnel" better then sub anyway lol

balmy condor
#

it would actually hurt the funnel

#

since it wouldn't buff envenom like it does now

clever sapphire
#

ah brain afk, i read it as overall dmg boost, not dmg boost to the bleeds

grim jay
royal lantern
#

overall dmg boost is what it does rn lmao

clever sapphire
#

its still early here, thats my excuse

clever sapphire
#

like freehold first pull

royal lantern
#

evisc doesnt really do big dmg

grim jay
royal lantern
#

storm>evisc is not really a st gain

clever sapphire
grim jay
#

And imo funnel is only if you gain damage to that target through other targets, which you dont

royal lantern
#

if you really need a single add to die in a Pack as sub, you do your normal st, and not "funnel" with storm>evisc

shell osprey
#

yeah i guess ic lower cd would make it too easy or braindead, but something needs to be done about aoe imo

#

its like, to me, sin is so close to being perfect

#

its just missing a lil something to me

#

balance aside

clever sapphire
#

make rupture/garrote dmg more relevant the more you have up, give ic 2 min cooldown, that does sound good imo

clever sapphire
#

but the new rotten sub build was fun to play around with, still sticking to assa but it was a nice changeup

shell osprey
#

hopin half patch brings some meaningful changes

clever sapphire
#

buff bleed dmg

#

probably the easiest solution if they dont wanna think much

balmy condor
#

exsang change

#

to buff aoe bleed

#

yep

#

exsang dead

#

and from the ashes

#

new buff

deft flicker
clever sapphire
#

and now whispyr has another sleepless night, or 2, or 3 cause he has to do all the sims from the bottom

clever sapphire
balmy condor
#

ripping all the exsang logic out of the APL

#

will be the happiest I have been

#

doing APL work

in many years

thats all we need

#

a happy whispyr is a good whispyr

dense lantern
#

does the talents build changes for tyrannic weeks in m+?

balmy condor
#

no

shell osprey
#

i dont want exsang to come back in any form simular to what it is now lol

clever sapphire
#

i sometimes run the full on sbs ST build if i know my group has big aoe

shell osprey
#

i dislike that playstyle so much lol

trail mica
#

btw, what is going on with rogue developers? we didn't get any kind of talent/ability changes in a long while...

balmy condor
#

do we look like blizzard

buoyant pilot
clever sapphire
#

implement all the changes the rogue discord cooked up, lets see if we can get on the level of warlocks

balmy condor
#

rogue developers probably got stuck in line for the new spiderman movie preorders bro idk

trail mica
#

wasn't there a rogue developer somewhere around here?

clever sapphire
#

ye he left

deft flicker
balmy condor
#

perhaps the devs had to go to the DMV to renew their license

#

and got stuck

sure seems like it

I could come up with other dumb aimless dawdles if it makes you feel better

i want your dumbest one

the dumbest one I could come up with is that they spent too much time sunbathing in cancun over the spring

blazing jewel

When does sin get tigers fury kekman

royal lantern
#

we can get tigers furry dracthyr_blush

clever sapphire
#

give rogue windfury totem instead of SnD

buoyant pilot
#

Give us a tank spec

clever sapphire
#

you are already a tank for 10 seconds

balmy condor
#

idk

#

it's

#

so fucking weird to me

#

when people come in and go "where is the rogue dev"

#

as if it's just a normal thing to ask random strangers on the internet what someone does at their 9-5

#

like hey bro @clever sapphire, what's @blazing jewel been up to

blazing jewel
#

👀

balmy condor
#

tell me about his job

clever sapphire
#

cookin up shit about combining assa and feral

balmy condor

what's he been doing

#

is he doing work?:

deft flicker
blazing jewel
#

Nope Notok

balmy condor
#

you see how fucking psycho that sounds

clever sapphire
#

doing gods work

balmy condor
#

when you do that with normal people

#

but for some reason it's okay to do that with a dev

#

because..... what

blazing jewel
#

Did I just get called a normie AINTNOWAY

balmy condor
#

people assume they don't do anything?

clever sapphire
#

isnt that the reason why realz left? I wasnt really lookin much here at the time

buoyant pilot
balmy condor
#

blizzard pays them to do nothing?

#

fucking lmao

blazing jewel
#

Also people assume devs have free reign as to what they can change

clever sapphire
#

but like you can assume lookin at how shit went when he was here

balmy condor
#

there's no management

#

no projects

#

they just work on whatever they think is fun that day

royal lantern

I heard pinging him in RH makes him work faster though kekman

the team just walks in on a monday and goes "hmmmm perhaps we make survival melee"

and bam

by friday it's done

clever sapphire
#

jokes on you, thats how shadowpriest rework goes

#

they toss up a coin every monday, if it lands on heads they rework SP

if its tails warlock gets buffed

if its neither rogue gets changes

no other reason behind jt

surv hunter chance made me so sad back in the day, that was my class i fell in love with wow on

royal lantern
#

essence is not great for assa iirc

blazing jewel
#

For how much the devs get flamed. It’s a miracle that rogue sims ended up nearly equal after removing damage amps a day before the tier and sending a compensation buff

balmy condor
#

I frankly can't imagine that it works any other way

clever sapphire
#

see told you, if you agree with me than it must be correct

#

but ye its still better than them canceling ow2 pve

#

now its ow 0.9

royal lantern
#

i installed a modpack for mincecraft once, that means i know excatly why blizz didnt fix bug X yet

its because they are lazy

nothing else

Akkkshually they are super lazy

Bug X is crucial for client’s stability

btw how did we land here from comparing assa funnel to sub funnel

wat da hell

that's probably the best vault I've seen this patch

but you should probably wait with taking gear until you did raid this week

whats everyones opinion on the call to nelth trinket, got one today and its avg uptime seems pretty rough

clever sapphire

with that vault atleast

balmy condor

only thing i could take is the shoulders for ilvl

and i lose the parasyte from the other's i have

clever sapphire

but literally all my tier parts are 424

But ye its better

clever sapphire
#

im not in a guild anymore, maybe thats one of the reasons why 🤣

Do you just pug everything then

well i still dont have endboss dead on hc

balmy condor

I'd rather quit honestly

that sounds terrible

well yes but no

#

i can actually do what i want, when i want

#

cause i dont have to be online at exact times

blazing jewel
#

Go app to guilds

balmy condor
#

yeah but you also can't do mythic

blazing jewel
#

Rogues are high demand OMEGAKEKW

clever sapphire

well ye only sad part is not doing mythic

grim jay

#

im just gonna do the same i did last season

languid pier

Tbh

#

Is better to join your guild

balmy condor

pugging mythic is a shit show

languid pier

than a group of pug for mythic

#

is gonna be a clown fiesta

clever sapphire
#

join a guild thats 7/8 reclearing, then leave cause they are acctually shit but they had a whole season to get there xD

#

thats how i got my 7 kills last season

blazing jewel

Then you respond with it was a miss input before pull

Comfy pick

Mine is just "Wow bro assassination is huge this season they gonna get nerfed for sure"

What guild rank cares if you only play sin tf

i dont even Play only assa lol, i swap when fights really need it, like dathea did

there is only 1 boss aoe i think?

blazing jewel

Just 1 platform dathea ez

but turns out, my assa is good enough that in 99% of cases im told "you do great, stay and do dmg"

but log andys cant grasp that

isnt it better then iridius now ? since we can macro it with every DM ( same ilvl 437 )

balmy condor

doubt it

blazing jewel

I thought they were going away with crazy strong trinkets and then they drop griefy t and beacon back to back

balmy condor
#

like

#

just because a trinket says 2 minutes

#

doesn't mean it's instantly good

#

it's not like blizzard forgot that cooldowns happen every 2 minutes

#

and just made a trinket

Tried it with the build whispyr has

why you didnt put 437 ?

languid pier
#

you can't get that trinket in 437+

balmy condor

that is, if its even simming as it should

languid pier
#

is a Timewalking trinket

balmy condor

basically all the timewalking stuff the first time around has a high chance to simply be incorrect

then why on bloodmallet its shows also as 437 ?

yeah bomb and sark trinket on paper seemed good, i wanna get dice cause rogue trinket haha
