only if you don't care about add damage or wanna give whispyr an aneurism (IC)

balmy condor
#

this channel is more than capable of the second without scana playing IC on sark

woeful meteor
#

Considering Sub doesnt run Powder on that fight going sin isnt an issue im sure

blazing jewel
#

I feel like I already did the whispyr aneurism part on sin round 1

balmy condor
#

they don't need powder when they have sectec

woeful meteor
#

but more AOE pad

storm forum
#

i didnt even know sub could talent out of powder

blazing jewel
#

Whispyr told he’s playing AP on sark

weak plover
#

IC sark sounds cursed

woeful meteor

Big true

#

Meta defining

shut owl
#

I miss when 2p CT boost made us eye it in st

somber fractal
#

I will go full single target on sark

#

adds are for padders

blazing jewel
#

Prio add on mythic is not for padders deadge

young briar
#

You wanna see some padding?

misty comet
#

Nah. Got Instagram for that.

storm forum
#

KB AP for the prio add

young briar
#

Tbf the Boss damage parse is still a 99

shut owl
#

thats actually amazing

blazing jewel
#

Parsing on heroic nelth is impossible when he goes immune to damage at the first add spawn OMEGAKEKW

shut owl
#

big mood

#

I enjoy seeing 2M+ in friendly fire from beacon to beyond during corruption

silk bane
#

@balmy condor its been brought to my attention that sin somehow has a larger variance that the ring rng + beacon crit rng + embel rng spec that is sub. why is sins damage variance larger than sub?

young briar
#

Stats most likely

silk bane
blazing jewel
#

Wouldn’t sub having higher crit chance make the variance for beacon smaller

young briar
#

Yes

blazing jewel
#

For the majority of encounters you can delay it to be in symbols crit windows which would be like 65% crit

young briar
#

thats the point armin is making

#

Sin has larger variance

blazing jewel
#

Compared to sins what 35%?

young briar
#

What would happen if we ran cold blood + beacon

silk bane
young briar
#

as sin

silk bane
#

but it def could be a factor

#

also not kidding about paddding on the homies

blazing jewel
#

I’m more so getting at sin critting three beacons in an encounter is possible

blazing jewel
#

But not as hard on sub

#

So the logs of sin having those crits will exist

silk bane
blazing jewel
balmy condor
#

yeah and if you get 2/4 to crit you have an extra cp

#

and if you get 4/4 to crit and shiv that's also a finish

#

and if you use garrote instead of shiv that's also a finish

silk bane
#

but 4/4 is actually 2 wasted cps

#

that gives u 8 cp u cap out at 6

#

so it doesnt matter

#

your best case is 2

#

i was thinking maybe youre more reliant on good sophic procs during DM

#

vs flat sbu

balmy condor
#

I mean 4/4 cp on 1 mut

#

but like is this really important

#

there's like 35 different things that are rng

#

how much more rng is assa over sub

silk bane
#

honestly I wast just tired of playing rng roulette with sub

#

like our last rashok reclear just killed my will to play the spec

#

2 anvil procs in 6:15 min

#

800k forzen stone damage in 6:15 min

#

i wanted a spec that my damage is mine not bs procs

#

but somehow sin was worse

balmy condor
#

bruh I checked sims

#

the confidence interval difference is under 2k

silk bane
#

eh thats nothign i thought it would be more based off of what eleem said. but either way theyre both rng heavy

blazing jewel
#

Yo purple name

#

Is there a cap on how much haste effects tick rate for our dots

balmy condor
#

I ain't going hunting for why one spec has a swing that's 900 dps bigger on either side

main vessel
#

Congrats Whispyr on being promoted to Shadow of my heart

balmy condor
#

that's a complete waste of my time

silk bane
#

yeah thats fair I thought it would be more but 2k is nothign

balmy condor
#

the formula for the tick rate is 1 tick every 2 / (1+haste) seconds

blazing jewel
#

My smooth brain was checking logs

#

And comparing tick rate from lust

#

To sark haste buff dm ticks

balmy condor
#

it's this

#

where Y axis is tick every Y seconds

#

and X axis is in haste %

silk bane
#

okay based. so we get 450% haste then we run KB

#

stonks

#

as fuck

young briar
balmy condor
#

it's just an exponential graph

blazing jewel
#

Yo btw

#

Can we get an explanation of “reading the outlaw faq while doing a key”

#

Is that a whispyr special

balmy condor
#

I almost got beat by a fucking tank during a key

#

so I was like fuck it we play outlaw

#

and I have not played outlaw since it's been called outlaw

silk bane
balmy condor
#

aside from like

#

5 pulls on painsmith

#

because tilt

#

so I tilted here as well

#

and I'm like fuck you I have a biletusk

#

lets do this shit

#

and my bars weren't set up

#

I hit shadow dance and it was spamming sinister strike

#

was a good time

balmy condor
#

our guilds havoc player can do vdh in keys for fun

#

bro did 107k in a freehold

silk bane
#

join me in mage gaming whispyr

balmy condor
#

a tank

#

over 100k

#

in a dungeon

oak sky
#

Mage is gonna be lit next patch

balmy condor
#

I get people dm'ing me still going "my first 100k woo!"

#

and In the back of my head

#

I'm like

#

bruh

#

my tank does that

#

wtf are tanks

blazing jewel
balmy condor
#

they're insano

silk bane
#

my rat 404 mage with no tier and trinkets on a 12 treeboss in brackenhide

blazing jewel
#

During the first week

silk bane
#

u kill boss in 40 seconds u do stonks dps

balmy condor
#

it's actually fucking stupid to me that prot pal exists in the game

blazing jewel
#

Our guilds uh dk soloed so many bosses as blood on 20s

balmy condor
#

like as a spec

#

who decided to give a tank infinite healing

#

and also infinite survivability

#

and also infinite interrupts

silk bane
#

^ vdh is even better than ppal right now though

balmy condor
#

and also infinite damage

silk bane
#

more damage and tankier

#

and with how good casters are

blazing jewel
#

Give them ashen hollow again

silk bane
#

its just flat 5% too

#

and u dont NEED ppal util to live keys like u did last tier

balmy condor
#

vdh is more damage and tankier sure

#

but prot pal has way more utility

#

prot pal does enough group healing to drop the healer entirely in 20's

#

we ran bdk, prot pal, 3 dps

#

and it was fine

#

that's how fucking dumb prot pal is

woeful meteor
#

For Pugging avengers shield/divine toll is way to good

balmy condor
#

that shit is ridiculous

#

idc if vdh does 10% more damage and takes 10% less damage

silk bane
#

oh yeah the interupts is just stupid

#

like so good its not even rela

balmy condor
#

the fact that prot pal can off-heal the entire party and also interrupt everything 24/7

#

is just so crazy dumb

gusty mirage
#

Seems fine to me

balmy condor
#

when I run with a prot pal

#

there's been dungeons

gusty mirage
#

I think they need to buff prot pala tbh

balmy condor
#

where it does more group healing

#

than the healer

#

and also 5x the damage

#

and I'm sitting there like okay

#

why the fuck do healers exist

blazing jewel
#

Cosmetic role

balmy condor
#

the only thing prot paladin is missing is a big healer cooldown

#

and it could legitmatelly do all 3 roles at once

young briar
#

cough lay on hands

balmy condor
#

I mean wog is just lay on hands

gusty mirage
#

That’s not a healer cd tho

balmy condor
#

I'm talking a big aoe cooldown

#

like if they had ashen hallow still

#

prot pal could run laps around everyone

gaunt moat
#

Don't forget to mention they can do all of that with like 10+ilvls lower

young briar
#

Moment of Silence for Ashen Hallow

dont worry theyll get a new ability in 10.1.5 : divine intervention; 2 min cd. basically gives everyone in your group spellwarding absorbing up to 900k damage.

#

trust

#

its balanced

balmy condor
#

but yeh they don't need lay on hands

#

they just have wog

#

for 3 holy power

#

with no cd

#

does the same thing

So you could rez and go again

it would make them immune and out of combat

they used to be so creative

like some casual that sleeps at 3am

I was you before you were you starege

balmy condor

but I was me are you were me

#

and I became me

#

without you being me

gaunt moat
#

exactly
so i need to sim

gaunt moat
#

haha perfect

balmy condor

but then we would just become each other

gaunt moat

man that movie gave me nightmares as a kid

and confused me about the amount of boobs ladies do or should have

been a hectic month

#

you know duskwalkers right? the sl lego that gave you more vendetta uptime?

#

okay

#

prison shiv: your shiv debuff duration is extended by .5 seconds per every application of your poisons and bleeds

#

to introduce a new form of playstyle, instead of wating for yoru bleeds and poisons to complete finish like a virgin, you can just spam shiv empowered nature poisons and bleeds like a chad

balmy condor
#

the lightweight shiv buff that could've been

#

+1 charge I guess

bronze pike
#

ya but my fix, if properly played :) means you never have to press hiv again

#

so its just as good

tacit otter
#

i played couple keys and still play really bad but in aoe the build feels really nice. did 160 on a 21 freehold, st feels absolutely dogshit but same as before tbh

proper tapir
tacit otter
#

but thats not a big deal for me, st dmg is low anyways i rather pull 20-50k more each pack than 5-10k more in st

azure grail
#

hello, maybe dumb question. I noticed that dropping the 1 point in resounding clarity and taking 2/2 lethality is a consistent dps gain for the venom rush build, putting it only -0.2% behind exsang instead of -0.7%. Here's a sim using the profiles in the Whispyr sheet as of a few minutes ago: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/rMGyZXDtk6gTse6XL4Hzdx (but it's true for my character on live also)

did I mess up the sim somehow? or is this something that's just known and ignored?

strange python
#

Well sin in farm is my definite play now

tacit otter
balmy condor
azure grail
#

okay, figured something like that might be the case, also a quality of life thing like CttC I guess. thanks

balmy condor
#

just playing ER without resounding makes for...... awkward gameplay

kindred rapids
#

Sin sims well but that doesn't seem to translate to logs

balmy condor
#

ER -> finisher for example is guaranteed every time atm

#

wouldn't be with that

kindred rapids
#

Sin is at least 4% behind sub on Rashok and mag in logs last time I checked

#

Is that just because no one is playing it?

blazing jewel
#

bad kill time for sin

slow needle
#

2 things, the buff isn't in yet and by comparison fewer people are playing it yeah.

blazing jewel
#

when people get full bis and blast magmorax I think sin kill time could be good

slow needle
#

Is 6:30 really that bad for Sin?

#

The just sub 6 min kills would be bad yeah. But most kills are 6:15-6:30 at a glance.

woeful meteor
#

you loose 4pc value

kindred rapids
#

Yeah most early kills should allow 4 vendettas

blazing jewel
#

and your first dm is like 5 seconds in

keen spruce
#

you basically just want a full deathmark and 4pc burn in execute

#

for maximum pamp

balmy condor
#

yeh rashok time is ass

#

you barely finish your 6min deathmark when it dies

#

essentially just lose your entire 4pc value on that dm

gilded seal
#

Can we still do log reviews here or do we have another channel for that?

balmy condor

we have wowanalyzer for that

#

Has their been any more update to the toxic vs slimy boots debate? Or are they still neck and neck?

#

Does the 5% buff impact one more than the other?

balmy condor
#

I give myself a project

#

but then other shit comes up

#

I have like

#

some of it working

#

like sepsis tracking works

#

empowered sepsis garrotes work

#

but I need to add a check for the vanish usage, as well as a check for timing the second garrote

#

which are not easy things to do

tacit otter
#

i can imagine making it work in opener with the multiple emp garrote application is huge dispair

balmy condor
#

topple's been great though

#

he's given me the tools

#

without giving me the answer

#

he's like "yeah you can find what you need here"

#

and then I have to go and like

#

figure out what the code should be

#

and then he looks at it and goes "you're a fucking idiot"

tacit otter
#

sounds like me at uni tbh

balmy condor

Just pvp stuff for sub tho

#

Is that a change that’s accepted? 5% damage increase?

#

I don’t know if that’s a really huge game changer or not

tacit otter
#

its more than we've had the last few months

#

Well I’m glad you guys are getting something

tacit otter

but of course its not changing any major gameplay problems

it was at first raid of sepsis things were weird

balmy condor

excellent

but i came back strong no? haha

yeah sure

that's a sepsis ambush

it was before i had a sepsis wa

so i had to look at buff bar

do people just not sim rings or is there that much variation with other people's gear sets

!pandemic

prisma monolithBOT

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

balmy condor
#

I can't get rid of it no matter how hard I try

#

can't even drop eranog ring reliably

weird

yeeted them around the same time

maybe like a week later for eggnog but i was forgetting to sim against double sophic

Where are our ptr changes tho

#

any information about when raidbots is up to date for the 5% buff?

clever sapphire
wispy iris
#

so we hold dm with exang at 3 min for a 4 min kill, hold exang for dm at 4 min for a 5 min kill right

spiral pasture
#

is assa gonna be the best ST spec after the buff?

next arch
#

Probs not.

balmy condor
simple niche
balmy condor
#

Or just sim yourself normally

#

And add like 4k to whatever it spits out

#

I like the second option

honest path
#

Funny… decided yesterday to drop sub and come back to my beloved Assa spec. Then 5% flat buff for Assa. Must be destiny.

hoary remnant
balmy condor
#

afaik it tracks the sepsis buff

#

You want to use the first buff normally to empower garrote

#

The second one you hold as long as possible

vestal wren
#

nice pin 👍

hoary remnant
#

Ok sorry for asking I read the pins but I don't get sepsis yet. So we press sepsis and immediately want to empower our garrote and wait until sepsis buff runs out on target so 10 seconds + 5 seconds where we can use empowered spells from stealth is that correct?

pseudo nimbus
#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
keen spruce
#

press sepsis

#

u get to use an empowered garrote

#

10s later

#

you have a chance to use another empowered garrote

#

but your first one is still runnin

#

so wait until the latest part to use that 2nd empowered garrote

#

or until the first one is in pandemic

#

like if you use that WA and spesis a target dummy

#

blue shit comes up but starts counting down

#

the first one you garrote right after sepsis in your opener

#

10s later blue pops up again and counting down

#

try to use garrote right before blue shit goes away

#

i think it turns red now actually

#

in the last few seconds

bro we already do 0 st with DTB

currently you cant be good in m+ without doing good st

even sub st is "low" compared to the meta

this was the build i had simming top

so its not AP

also, fucking HATE 4pc

would be this, but maybe changed with apl updates

i mean, the 4pc is really fking boring

oh wait, you mean for m+ varas

if it were boring it would be fine

#

2pc is boring

#

4pc is annoying

vestal wren
#

ironically

#

outlaw is the only spec that got a exciting tier

royal lantern
#

ye, for raid its just a passive dmg increase and in m+ it starts some degen gameplay

#

fuck tiersets

#

🙂

deft flicker
subtle tundra
#

also, both tiers so far have had our mediocre aoe be carried by the tier sets being so powerful in aoe
6 points into pure aoe talents just to not even be good aoe

What he said exactly was:
"I think that rogue and hunter needs a more deep-dive into their talents to see where their damage is coming from."

vestal wren
#

tbh rogue in general needs some attention

oh wow, fuu is alive

has anyone tested CT for single target lately ?

royal lantern
#

dont

#

🙂

#

@gaunt moat I just imported your wa for Sepsis. I did make it narrower

#

Somehow it dissapears, cancel itself

#

Can that adjustment be the reason?

gaunt moat
#

I need some more info
When does it dissapear

winter gale
#

Both 1st and 2nd image

#

1st right after garrote but that can be intentional I guess

#

2nd just shows up and insta dissapera

#

dissapear

gaunt moat
#

Yes, it's gone when you consume your self buff

winter gale
#

I used it on 2 bosses so far, maybe I am just figuring things wrongly

gaunt moat
#

Test it on a dummy

#

positioning should not have an impact if you made it narrower.
It's either you insta-garroted or insta-ambushed when it popped up.

#

Since that would consume your Sepsis buff.

craggy oak
winter gale
#

Works well, pardon me @gaunt moat

#

I narrowed it into other animation so it was less visible 😄

fallen charm
#

I've made a sepsis WA but I had to make 2 because I didn't manage to track the self buff and the enemy debuff at the same time

royal lantern
#

when its dot based

fallen charm
#

works like this

#

the blue border is the self buff

clear granite
#

so, do we use iridius frag or bomb+beacon is the go

balmy condor
#

pins

royal lantern
#

its just

#

we went from "bomb+beacon is bis"

#

to "bomb+beacon or nelth trinket is bis"

fallen charm
#

we dropped a nelth trinket on thursday, thank god it wasn't for my group, i'd kill myself if I passed on it

clear granite
#

my next question would be , we use bomb i assume b4 we rapture after echoing rep ?

vestal wren
fallen charm
#

bomb is on cd if you don't have another on-use trinket

vestal wren
#

if you get all buffs

limber lion
#

Depends if you use double on use

clear granite
#

on the bomb beacon scenario

fallen charm
#

bacon first, than spam bombs forever

royal lantern
#

no

#

bombs first

#

beacon after DM is over

clear granite
#

im reffering to the opener part

#

since faq still plays with fragment

#

and its pretty default the way it uses it

royal lantern
#

yeha, i refer to the opener aswell

#

you apply bomb on pull

#

and apply another bomb before DM

#

and then beacon when DM is over

clear granite
#

sounds legit

limber lion
#

It depends on fight length honestly, but doing that works for most things

royal lantern
#

you use bomb pre-DM on fights where the lenght means 1 less beacon cast

clear granite
#

ye obv but as a general rule

royal lantern
#

aka magma

ornate dawn
#

Simming rings to replace annulet

+23 dps . . . soon

clear granite
#

for exampl, if no matter what we fit 2 beacons in a fight, we double bomb pull and beacon after dfm

#

dm

royal lantern
#

yes

#

if the fight is like 5:20 lenght, you use beacon pre dm

#

as an example

clear granite
#

ye

royal lantern
#

on rashok as an example, 1 of the few fights where dps actually matters, you can just do beacon after DM cus of the killtimer

#

(and accept that the killtimer is giga cursed anyway)

shell osprey
#

nice i can feel less bad about not using exsang now!

#

only .5% behind!

ruby rover
#

when analyzer is looking at envenom usage and it's complaining about the absence of rupture on the target is it looking deep enough to say 'and that target lived long enough that rupture would have been the right call' or is it just flagging any envenom with low/absent rupture?

balmy condor
#

It’s flagging any

#

got it, ok, less worrisome then. thanks.

What is the stat weight for raid

#

6000 crit 1000 haste 3000 mastery 2000 vers ?

vestal wren
#

if you mean stat distribution, crit is still the most important stat

#

(but also distribution is limited by gear, so you should rly sim for your gear)

lavish hazel
#

3000 haste oof

#

Yes I will sim was just asking for any indicator and how far I am rn

royal lantern
#

stat weights dont exist

#

fuu

#

dont make it more complicated then it is notlikethis

vestal wren
#

i didn't talk about stat weights

cursive smelt
#

5% all ability ?

vestal wren
#

the buff is a 4% damage increase

misty holly
#

I find stat weights useful for quickly identifying if an item is worth bothering with.

#

When something drops in a dungeon and you need to know do I ask them for it, or if they asked me do I need to keep it for myself you need an idea of what stats are what.

#

No time to run a 3 minute sim when you are busy playing and things come up.

cursive smelt
#

just go simu after the dungeon

misty holly
#

I mean sure and by the time it's done the group is disbanded and you missed the chance to trade loot efficiently

cursive smelt
#

you call your intention to your mate before the end of the dungeon like the appointments after school in primary lol

#

don't worry that when it's for loot people stay x)

vestal wren
#

top gear is the best way to find gear, stat weights are mostly useless

amber stream
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
pure moth
austere fulcrum
#

or near

vestal wren
#

i don't, it is just one profile that happens to end up the top simming one

#

stats are not fixed in that you need a specific amount, some are better, others are worse and they interact with each other

#

so it is possible that different stat distributions reach similar dps or get close

cosmic prism
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
vestal wren
#

this is also why we always tell people to sim their options, gear differs and there are other factors like race choice too

#

reaching absolute bis might be a goal for some, but it is typically more realistic to get close-ish to that

#

(even players who play a lot at high levels rarely manage to get absolute bis)

#

tho the new gearing system has their advantages now too

#

crafted gear can reach rly close to bis, so you usually can get very strong even without being at the very top in raiding

#justwingit

😂 naw I kid, I still run sims but am pretty casual aside from being a raidbots enjoyer....make me think how stacked whoever came up with raidbots is

vestal wren
#

raidbots is a brilliant idea, basically made it easy for everyone to use simc

#

you would either need to run it locally (pre compiled) or compile it yourself when i started theorycrafting

#

people newer to it, never experienced this ^^

stiff geode
#

I think I ran it locally during BfA days
and yes it is very brilliant and much props to the team behind it

#

tbh i am lucky that the majority that does contribute to apl atm never had to jump through those loops

#

for me it was mostly a problem of accessibility

#

my pc, as most know, is not very powerful, so even running few apl comparisons with low target error took me hours to complete on my laptop

#

raidbots allows to iterate a lot faster and the interface allows a lot more people to contribute

delicate hemlock
#

the noise my pc fans use to make when i ran simc 😂

vestal wren
#

e.g. when i put out sth like the text files with gear, everyone can just put in a profile from the spreadsheet in top gear and potentially find a better gear combination

#

most of those who can do that now, would not be able to contribute with a local client just simply because of how complicated it is to find gear and compare it compared to a graphical interface

spice surge
#

My only gripe with raidbots is that you cant get the full html results when doing stuff like topgear, but i understand that it allows them to run a lot faster

spice surge
#

Very easy to spot user errors that way

vestal wren
#

oh yes absolutely

vestal wren
#

and share stuff easier/faster

delicate hemlock
#

im wondering if misunderstood deathmark, does it just duplicate DoTs you apply while its up, or does it just make your dots do double damage while its running? my UI isnt set up well to see what it actually does

#

the bit in FAQ about having improved garotte up before deathmark makes me think i dont understand the spell

limber lion
#

Meaning that all bleeds applied before DM and any bleeds applied during it are duplicated

halcyon arch
#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
limber lion
#

Once DM drops, the duplicated bleeds also drop

delicate hemlock
#

ahh okay, so its basically double dot damage but with any benefit you get from the extra ticks

limber lion
#

Yeah, double energy via Venomous Wounds for example

#

It's just 2 identical garrotes and 2 identical ruptures

delicate hemlock
#

banger, i defo misunderstood it haha peepothanks

limber lion
#

So you want to have a giga garrote before deathmark so you'll have 2 giga garrotes when you press the button :)

potent python
#

quick question for the bomb dispensair, did you guys macro it onto one of your spells ?

gaunt moat
#

I macro'd it to envenom.
is it a great idea? ehhh.

potent python
#

idk but in subtelty you can just bind it on one of your spells and forget about it

gaunt moat
#

sometimes it blocks my other trinket and then i'm a bit upset

potent python
#

i did the same for my outlaw spec

#

yeah ik thats why i was asking for the beacon

delicate hemlock
#

no macro for me although im gunna guess most people have it macrod

#

i really dont wanna mess up my bacon by accidentally sending a bomb and getting ICD though so never really even thought about macro'ing it

potent python
#

ye

storm forum
#

I'll macro my trinkets when i replace puzzle box but that doesnt seem to be happening ever

supple snow
gaunt moat
#

no because you use garrote less often

supple snow
#

probably no difference there though

gaunt moat
#

and you might have it ready and not use it

supple snow
#

does it proc more than once every 18 sec? damn

#

don't have it yet. thought it procs less. damn

woeful meteor
#

just dont macro it, is having a bind for each trinket so uncommon?

gaunt moat
#

it might be ready in 2 seconds, but you just used garrote, that's what i mean

#

you're not gonna press garrote again anytime soon

supple snow
#

but soon it will be replaced. so it's fine

#

we will be using Suffering and Dispenser

should be fine

Yeh I know but I just had a botton for both trinkets since I started, so everyone asking where can I macro this button I press every 15 sec makes me think they didnt have a designated trinket button before

gusty mirage

I actually can’t fit a bind for it unless I add a brand new bind shrug_idk

I like macroing my trinkets as much as possible. I don't macro this one for fear of interrupting flow on a bigger on use though

But I probably have more binds than the average person anyway lol
