why do we delay the first garrote in sepsis
doesn't that extra time just get picked up on the 2nd one
now I get to press garrote and rupture slightly faster?
when do you deathmark and shiv
right after that

sepsis > DM > shiv
fits all of shiv into the sepsis window
you're wasting a global smh
but we have 2 shivs
whatever will you do without that like 8 dps

I can't believe you wouldn't press every single global perfectly like the robot that's programmed to do so
just delete your rogue tbh

hol up we have two shivs? did I miss something
didnt check talents since we added sepsis to it
ye you play lightweight shiv and venom rush in the non-exsang build
you missed the exsanguinate fiasco
mhm
also i've now run quicksim like 30 times each with bomb and beacon in swapped slots
if beacon in 13 it crits twice in 5m sim
if beacon in 14 it crits once

hey at least you have beacon
lucky number 13 i guess
and dice still sims higher for me no matter which one i put it in 
I only have this
im so glad i got rid of fragment yesterday
BECAUSE I NEVER GET LOOT FROM A 17 OR ABOVE
yeah your shits cursed bro
idk
441 nelth trink 
the real curse is that if beacon doesn't crit twice then anvil sims higher too

sims lower than fragment 
anvil gud trinket tho
fragment oversimming tho
yeah fragment bait fr
hey im all for managing one less active
nelth trink sims 6k higher than frag for me lmfao
I'm holding out hope that when fragment sims are fixed it wasn't as bad as we thought
whispyr's pin is like a super rough estimate
and it might actually be worse
lol
maybe whispyr spreadsheet estimate had a mistake 
also yeah having two actives made me want to kms
tbf bomb dispenser isn't an active
true but it still puts ur other trink on a 10 sec cd
I agree it's not the most exciting button, but saying that it doesn't change the rotation is not true
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
Exsang heavily changed the rotation and the rules of the core spec
....once every 4 min and all it did was speed up your bleeds
hehe xd
We had that already, no more
Is wowanalyzer working for assa or should I not bother any insight?
Yeah but you had to play differently prio to pressing the button and you had to track exsanguinated bleeds completely independently
You had to force reapplications and you had to make sure to let the exsanguinated bleeds drop entirely before reapplying
yeah @main vessel made it work for assassination
and we love him for it
Like saying that it doesn't change rotation or how you play is just bs
Yep
Thanks yeah guess I was looking to see if it did cd analysis but not really https://wowanalyzer.com/report/aFgdJBPp9cXqtwkn/2-Normal+Kazzara,+the+Hellforged+-+Kill+(3:08)/Hanazono/standard
which CD are you looking for
or by cd analysis do you mean analysis of whether or not the usage of the cd was good
I guess this is like a wishlist but if each deathmark showed the length of rupture and garrote they captured and if you used other cds in that same window
I guess I should start recrafting everything out of vers for crit and mastery
@main vessel u did the wowanalyzer update? you beautiful creature 
new wowanalyzer makes me moist
Sure if you care about 0.1%
Also its impossible to be 100% efficient on vanish usage right as your pull it isnt used? or should I use it earlier
yea
the efficiency is legitimately "did you use every possible cast"
I've talked to Whispyr about how he wants it to start counting from like 15s into a pull
given we hold first vanish you'll probably never get a good % on vanish
I haven't had the time to fully dig into how
That's all i needed to NOT do it, thank you @limber lion
might not be worth the effort tbh, might just be easier for all parties if you put a disclaimer somewhere for the vanish efficiency regarding the sepsis build
Aight makes sense if you want some inspo the mistweaver one for the ramp cd is nice 🙂
Don't have toxic crafted either, but should be a small difference with slimy
Just one of those things when I'm re learning the spec going into normal getting 95-100 bracket parse and green analyzer not sure what to look at next
SAME
I might just make a neck
was considering cloak but eventually want sark cloak
seems not worth
or maybe a ring

toxic upgrade is biggest by a huge margin for me 
MAYBE THATS HOW I DROP ANNULET?

fuck i guess it does make sense to craft crit mast for sub m+ and assas st
Why not assa m+??
i dont want raid lead flaming me 
Does anyone have an easy WA method to know if a Garrote has been empowered or is it easier to reverse engineer another WA like Luxthos'?

Not easy, but you can define a global variable that triggers when you have a qualifying buff and also resets when duration==null
i just take the module out of luxthos
and plop it into w/e ui you're using

he also just didn't cast kb for over a min in p3
those are some banger icons
bro can we get these dank icons
When ur reality is meme

whats the peepo cry one

why do i feel like blizz is taking care of most talent trees but rogues lol
not playing exang feels so good
Hey i saw the class tuning post last night. Rogue spot empty but was the blue post out? I hear people talks about the rogue rewok for 10.1.5 but no find the change. Sry if asked already

the buffs are in im feeling it
gotta update that details name
I'll stab you in the face with my mouth
i'll miss it... 😔
is this the secret of your logs ???

Thats amazing
@keen spruce time to upload your weakaura package with icons for everyone
You’d have to download all the icons separately is the issue

why does the homeland raid horn sims higher than the irideus fragment on my friend ? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/anu6AxbuJQL5XXJafPiXWc
Probably because it's a 7 min sim and because horn is decent.
Even if Fragment did sim higher, it would still probably be worse than horn
because it oversims
so my friend should keep horn? fuu's list frag higher
Read the pins
thx
homeland is the most dogshit trinket in the game like no joke
i dont even know why its good lol
Just cloak it... Jk, that feel terrible
which one should I advise him to have?
if he dont have the option for raid trinkets harlan from freehold is prolly a better choice

are we using beacon after DM?
after first garrote
Typically before so you don’t wait like 25 seconds and waste a cast
ah okay thank you
use it prepull than insta vanish and do opener normally 
Stop

Finally an use for Vanish before 2nd DM 
Go Master Assassin to guarantee crit
whispyr gonna hate me for bringing up his secret technique
look we're not usin our vanish anyways 
he already has it with the horn
they'd have to add another 0 to the damage of raid horn to get me to use it 
Silence dice enjoyer

This Melandrus ring… still simming higher than any 424 I have.
Just got my 4p last night. Had to bench my socketed helm (right after I put in a new main stat gem) QQ, I know.
it's raidbots not me
both beacons critting
one beacon crit

someone has a WA to track if current garrote is empowered? at best one i can copy into my own WA setup. i know luxxthos has that logic but i m not smart enough to copy and edit it...
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
you don't need to edit it
then drag the copy wherever you want
cuz shadowflame by itself is terrble
and erranog ring does not that much damage
and you still have flaring cowl on
which is perma procing it
i simnmed that one without cowl
check the sim
i dropped cowl for toxic patch
i already have boots
yea i know that but i dont like everything else about this WA. like glows/text etc and im kinda scared to try and change thing to my liking but maybe i give it a shot
you have your base sim as cowl + eggnog
you have no cowl + double shadowflame
and you have no cowl no eggnog + double sophic
oh just delete everything else
my luxthos is completely empty
yeah i wnated to see the diff between dropping a ring and sophic for eggnog ring+shadow
i don't even think i need to keep any of htis tbh
is empowered rupture a different spell id or nah?
suprised me it simmed worse but it is what it is
what empowered rupture 
do a sim with eggnog, no cowl, shadowflame on your mainhand sophic on offhand
cause if so it should be easy to just make from scratch no?
uh no but i think he has some logic in there to glow when empowered or something
idk how it works that's why i copied it


doing it
If I am getting full combo points or 5 combo points, what finisher should I be using if all the bleeds are running?
Envenom?
yeah that looks about what i'd expect
shadowflame just kinda ass
and you only run it to enable eggnog
which also doesn't do that much dmg
skyshard is well statted and much higher ilvl
stats better
My fellow rogue brethren. I present the best macro known to mankind.
/run if IsStealthed() ~= (GetSheathState() == 1) then ToggleSheath() end
/cast Stealth
You ain't try the macro have ya
if this crashes my game i'm gonna be angy
I would never troll
if you spam it if fucks it up
it'll pull your shit out during the GCD
or put it away
0% celerity is ok for assa? xD
0% of any retired outlaw spell is ok for assas
did someone got the new PI value after the buffs ?
its ok that was i guessed ty i just did today top 11 top 6 top 9 world in some hc bosses with 0% celerity xD
can i get the toxified armor patch on boots aswell or does it need to be on wrists for some reason? 🙂
tf is celerity 
cele
can't be on boots
oh my god i mean haste XDDDDDD
wrist, belt, or hat
oh LOL
i mean yeah sims will probably want you to get some once you have a good amount of crit/mast
but it's fine to have low haste
still bad
compared to our competition
?????
i just main subtetly, maybe switching to assa someday, but i'll still main subt until i get some gear
you need the embellishment toxic thorns or slimy to even make use of that patch
oh ofc lmao
theres no real reason to put it on boots
im dumb
okay someone else answered lol
i need the slimy boots there
well, slimy expulsion boots, correct? 😅
assa st toxic are better, but if you multi spec you can consider using slimy
but also make sure to just sim aswell
slimmy better so u can multispec
I only play assa, so no need 🙂
u share stats with subtetly, no need to main one thing 😄
I know, still don't play sub 😛
yeah i would craft toxic then aswell, but i crafted slimy on week1 like most of us
Oh shit! Thanks for the reminder for 3 gems on the neck
which trinkets should my assa friend use for raiding if he does not have beacon/bomb/neltha ?? (like trinkets coming from m+)
rocks and mark of dargul for epic memes

Isn't vers worst stat for assassination?
if u get ambush proc during sepsis buff does it take it away
blindside will always be consumed first
you still have the sepsis buff up
your good 👍🏾
Thorns everywhere
oh damn just crafted slimy 😄
That’s fine
Anyone have a good weak aura for tracking empowered sepsis garrotes vs regular ones
The only way you’ll notice that slimy is worse
Is if you sim

You’ll never notice in game
luxthos rogue hud
tracks empowered garrotes
yeah i did that too, i'll replace the slimy with thorns when i have nothing else to replace with crafted
dunno about the other common UIs
Nah I feel the haste loss, sorry.
if anything, knowing you have less haste will be enough to make you feel it
placebo effect
as a haste feel enjoyer
i didn't even know slimy's lowered you haste
until they said the sims were bugged to not account for it
slimy lowers your haste and has no haste, compared to thorns
that's double the haste loss
This mf ain’t read a tooltip a day in his life
you're goddamn right
BUT MY 0.5% DPS
I just do what yall tell me

then complain later
why you holding me back bruh
I was gonna craft shoulders
then yall said toxic boots untrustworthy
and shoulders are cringe
so i made slimey's
never even looked at what they did

With exang dead at moment is bone spike over sepsis still viable?
I toxic patched a headpiece
The forbidden one
cuz guide says crit / mast > haste / vers
They’re both viable, but none spike is worse than sepsis
!whyspyr
the head is the only set piece with haste / vers

do it pussy you won't

anyone got the big data brain and can tell me how many new assa players came this week? in terms of mythic parses or w/e

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light: http://tiny.cc/2bq0vz / Dark: http://tiny.cc/xdu1vz
Would we use ambush then when we have sepsis procing the stealthed ability?
you'll always use garrote with the sepsis buff
mostly always
the only time i consume a sepsis buff with ambush is when the boss is about to die and i still have emp garrote the rest of the fight applied
so uh, where are the 10.1.5 changes for rogue
but yes, unless mob is dead or you've got better (vanish / exsang'd) garrote up, you go garrote
or was that announcement a meme
normally there shouldnt be a moment where you have vanish emp garrote applied and you use sepsis or? only if you fuck up something
last time I checked we were told to just fire on cooldown sepsis, which could align with an emp'd garrote on 6+min fights
it might have changed though
afaik you just repeat opener on min 6 no? theres barely any boss that surv that long anyways
well that all depends on your raid team 
just checked the guide, it is indeed more in-depth that when I last checked it
let me consult my magic crystal ball
🔮: ask again later
sorry
I got nothing
bruh we've been scammed
Believe it or not, unexpected things may occasionally happen. Like a work force getting dwindled by getting a decision to come back to the office, among other things.
Patience friends
There’s been no scam yet
I like to keep an optimistic outlook and genuinely believe in the dev team
but bruh they said we'd get changes this coming patch, nothing yet
they announced it
this spec has been a meme forever
litterally the last "archaic" style aoe dot spec in existence
all other dot specs actually do aoe and it's not just apply dots and wait
the modern game is different to how it used to be
I just liked spamming FoK with echoing blades
last time we were good in keys was end of bfa and it was due to FoK azerite trait being busted
(I know, sacrilege, bruh, L take etc)
there's something appealing to fillling out your screen with CRIT numbers
and instant feedback of your dps going to the stratosphere on big pulls
(and then being out-stratosphered by a fire mage combustin')
Probably very dumb question incoming:
Do I need to upgrade the weakauras themselves, or does simply updating the Weakaura addon via curseforge update the weakauras contained within?\
grats

you still would have to update the individual weakauras
but wago has a WA companion app that kind of automates it for you in game
I'd look into that for keeping WAs up to date
Is there a link that explains how to do that, or do you have an explanation for an old boomer?
ye I gotchu
unrelated: do you have the sim of yours showing that nelth is better than essence?
good man
I will try with my profile and see if I can find something for you, at best it was a slight downgrade from 441 beacon/bomba
https://weakauras.wtf/ - Click the link at the bottom, that's for the companion app.
https://www.wowhead.com/news/weakauras-companion-program-spotlight-289996 this post kinda summarizes all the features, but essentially all you have to do is get it to locate your WAs, click fetch updates, then in game you'll see an icon next to your WAs in the addon that lets you update it with a click
the icon looks like this:
so you'd open up WA click that and it'll let you update with like 2-3 clicks
Very cool, I'm installing the companion now, we'll see what happens
vs going to each WA individual page and manually importing
I'm assuming you have way more than just afenars
This is what I see; does "Up to date" mean it's good? Or could it mean my WA simply hasn't seen any updates since I installed it back in like... Shadowlands
or do you just have afenar's pack
I think that's all I have
yea then you're good to go
it's up to date
what I do is every 2-3 weeks I launch the app and check if any of my WA's are out of date
Oh, very cool; I've seen people talking about being able to see their Sepsis procs and their empowered Garrotes which I don't think this WA does
So I thought maybe mine was out of date
So either mine doesn't track those, or I'm an idiot and just not seeing that it does
Maybe I should look into that one; got a link?
it's paywalled behind his twitch stream
so if you have a twitch prime you could toss it his way, and then it's a channel on his discord where he hosts it
Oh, understood
I don't have Twitch; as stated above, boomer status
But! If I get fed up with this addon, I'll think about paying him
the luxthos one is updated afaik
might be worth checking that out instead of dumping cash on a whole UI overhaul
cause it comes with elvui and a bunch of other stuff
that you may or may not be looking for
pretty sure only luxthos is updated for sepsis
Looks like this is all I have, I'm assuming this is just the one WA, right?
but if you have any customization on your WAs then the companion app will overwrite them when they update
like frogs
if you like how that one looks, I might be able to interest you in mine https://wago.io/a4RNXiGN8
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
it's the same thing
but I took the empowered garrote guts out of luxthos thing
and shoved it into that package
Oh, that's great news
whipsyr pack very fancy
Whisp, let me show you my (very basic and shitty) UI and you let me know if swapping to yours will dramatically change how this looks
sure
should be fine
the sepsis markers might be a bit big
but it fits in the same space
big is good, my eyes are old
my cursor size is maxed
gf makes fun of me for it
so to use yours, would I just delete this WA entirely, copy yours, then paste it in and import? or does it somehow combine with this one
always a good idea to save your old one, just export it and save the thing so you can still swap back:)
Okay, I'm checking on how to "shut off" the Aefnar one, but I'm right clicking and reading elsewhere on the WA addon, I'm not seeing how to get it into the "Not Loaded" section without just deleting it
theres a "load" tab where you can select "never" that should do it
that worked perfectly, thanks
Gonna give Whispyr's a try!
Looking good so far, thanks @balmy condor

Very cool. And to be clear: nothing has changed, right? Exsanguinate still <<< Master Assassin for M+?
I guess I will begrudgingly spec out of it D:
No more exsa
exsangs dead
Don’t touch that until further changes
Big yikes
On experiments Mythic, we Bl at 1:18 after 2nd boss comes down, would u guys suggest keeping Mark for that or hit at start
I was hitting at start, usual opener was fine but giving a second thought now
kinda depends on how slow your raid group is
cause there's like 4:30 kill times and 6:30 kill times
if you're around 5 minutes, 5:30
holding would lose you a cast
if you're at like 5:50, 6 min
you could hold for that minute
if you're like 4:45, you could also hold
but at no point do you ever want to lose a cast
I think our kill will be between 5:30 to 6:15 ish. Best try %7 5.52 min
So it is better to use it at start
And dont mind Bl
Thank u @balmy condor
Does echo of nelth trinket have good uptime?
It does sim higher than my 437 dice but for only 300dps
for me its between 15-30%, its really wonky and not consistent
When i won the roll i was like, holy damn, this must be an huge upgrade, since i didn't even have 441 trinkets yet
But we'll, 300dps, we take those xD
It’s giga rng
One pull you’ll be at 7
Next you’ll be at 37
Very cool
my nelth trinket is significantly lower than 441 essence, so be glad its an upgrade^^
Would you recommend it vs a dice437 @balmy condor ? Or just trust the sim process and not even think much about it
Trust the sims 🙏
Idk is recommend is the right word

Tbh, altough i like to parse and do well and not rely on random stuff (like 2/3 crits from beacon), i think I'll just use it. Might get lucky on some kills and absolutely improve my previous parses
I'm yet to kill sark tho, haven't even tried him in heroic
i'd also plop neth trinket into the "random stuff" category
Yeah ik ik, I'll try it tomorrow on our prog on sark
!whispyr
Whispyr's Simulation Spreadsheet: https://tinyurl.com/292m89ev
Is the current build kinda sustain slash rot esque? Or more of and execute
Excellent
You do good burst on pull
Then you’re really sad for 4 minutes
And then you’re blasting again
Just like irl
Lowkey surprised that there's not more sin on sark
It seems better to me. But it's all just sub.
Most rogue players played sub, since it outperformed sin.
so they're geared and practiced for sub
no real point for them to go sin at this point
I'm not convinced that's true either.
It sims similarly on single target but gets actual value from haste.
It kinda sucks at prioing a target I guess
Not really worth for someone who is geared/practiced on Sub to switch Sin at this point because it maybe performs on par or 1% better
They would probably lose any potential "sim" benefit by way of not being as good at the rotation for a while
not really, sin is pretty straight forward, takes less than 10min to understand it completely
I just said that 
I don't buy that. there's a lot of little niche stuff.
sin has a decently high floor for a wow spec
not a crazy high ceiling though
if you've seen some of the logs i've seen
maybe Im a biased +6yr sin 1trick and thats why I dont look at it like you do
to me it is the easiest if not 1 of the 3 easiest dps specs
they say sub is easy, but i can't play it.
yeah i mean i've played sin forever and it feels very ez and straight forward. but for new people to the spec they tend to struggle a bit to figure out some of the knick nacs
but it is low apm
and pretty forgiving to most mistakes
low apm, few things to think about/track and very easy execution
new players are bad at dot management generally
I think today out of like 20 pulls, i got the opener right maybe 40% of the time.
Somehow when i get it wrong i do more DPS 
true, only seasoned vets like me can be bad at everything

I mean there is a reason why I chose sin over sub in legion when I started playing
it was much easier to understand
and very simple gameplay
echo gotta be the least fun fight ever
i been hearin this
not looking forwad to it
our best pull is 8% 🥲
we had to cancel raid last sunday cuz servers were taking a fat dump
our warlocks and DKs were only hitting like 120k in their openers
cuz they were losing like half of their globals

you guys have any class trinkets on the locks?
i think we had a couple pulls close to single digits
we had our 2nd drop today
before they took a shit tho
we have 1
2 locks 1 trinket
we've seen like 3 paladin trinkets
I'm dying to replace my fragment too. done like 5 freeholds today. nothing.

bruh I swear that fight doesnt die before locks have their trinkets
no rogue/boomkin/dk
same 
we have circus comp tho
freehold gulag
Yeah, what kinda idiot would have done that for a whole week 
I was like, do I farm fragment and suffer before I get beacon or do I settle with a dice and have fun instead
atleast that feels good
I farmed fragment
then i got a 447 fragment
then i got a beacon this week
and now i have to farm dice

but now class trinket looks like its worth getting (at mythic) and 441 dice is like 200 sim dps lower than hc beacon so I will prob just pray for class trinket from vault when nelth dies
Idk who the person you're replying to is so don't wanna make assumptions, but I often see the "lol sin is easy takes no skill" takes from people who blue parse heroic as sub
we're not sayin sin is some giga brain genius spec
but i have noticed new players seems to struggle on it from an understanding angle
Im saying its the smol brain spec
Unironically sin is the most complex of the three rogue specs.
no shot
sub and outlaw are just a little faster
lol
outlaw is very simple, but hard to execute
Have you played sub at all this expansion?
outlaw is adhd wrist killer
yes
more piano fingers, but also pressing the wrong button on outlaw hurts your dps like 0%
Unless you're playing rotten, which is a bit overstated in how complex it is, sub is maybe the easiest spec in the entire game across all classes.
It's melee BM right now.
And outlaw is super straight forward, it's just fast.
I find sub impossible to play. somehting's wrong with my brain.
same
sub has some hinkey mechanics now
too many buttons for me
I see 1-2 too many binds and say fuck it and go back to sin every tier
it's like.. i hate the shadow dance windows.
i get stressed by them.
I slam the keys during dance
prob just better for keyboard if I play sin
dance=huge dam=gotta slam those buttons
hah yeah something like that.
sin is calmer, you vanish.. you garrote, you DM... back to rotation.
nah but Im pretty hapy with sin now
escept for the cringe 6.30 timer on rashok
like, let me x a bit more
yeah, that';s a bit stressful cause you kinda send DMs the moment they're up
yea but I do like that it makes the rotation a little more interactive
(for the first 10 pulls ofc)
btw any thoughts on sin in m+?
Im not getting invited so cant really tell
garbage and boring
atm ic jsut makes sin sub 2.o but does less dmg
and st is boring af with that build
been cooking on basically going full st build during tyrann
idk rogue in gutter sin supper cope hanging onto the 10.1.5 changes dream, even sub kinda ass atm jsut tuned quite nicely, both specs need looking at, sin more so, outlaw seems fine
basically a greif, even tyrancial aoe matters alot, but if you not doing high keys then its fine
well sub can at least do both aoe and st in the aoe build
ye but dance not mattering because lingering shadows is a thing
ah ye ofc
idk maybe outlaw is the play for now until sin feels better in m+
something just feels off
doing no dmg and a dot spec not caring about dots after ic, sumin off there
guess it feels better in higher keys where you get better line ups for ic
just timing wise
^^
Wild
Gotta wait and see how and if that will change. It just lacks some stuff to really feel good in m+
Isnt even much that would be needed to feel decently enjoyable
whats wild about it
THEY HEARD MY CRIES
LETS FUCKING GOO9OOOOOOOOO
the "space spot" isnt the size of a penny now
hella room
thats a big nerf this early
Yes
so we just go crit=mastery>vers?
or how do we fill the stats then
crit mastery haste vers
im ~17% rn on howling runes
but do what robot tells you
yhh
Ye
there is no magic number
no i thought some nieche came up in a talk be4
unless you are bis geared
17% haste is a ton tbh
people in dsic can not possible say what stats are best for you
even whispyr with his nerd powers and magic crystal ball
take it
compared to like 3/4% of someone else
bomb is nutty
people roll on items they have in pugs
the issue is the second highest roll is my friend
Oh, shadow!
i already have call to suffering and beacon
ok? then give him the trinket why you asking us
is current sim updated with the buff?
yes
thanks
finally checked out analyzer for sin; this is juicy o-o
haste was actually big for me
seal of unquestionalble loyalties was a 900dps gain over eggnog ring
because i was at like 2% lol
Sepsis no exsang back?
check the pins, but yes
more like exsang gone
yeah once you have a lot of crit and mast
sims like haste
but like not 18% normally
its also eggnog ring, probably loses to any 441 ring, maybe not some 1k vers one
Post aura buff Shadowflame wreathe is basically dead tbh
It was very minor for people beforehand
Probably next to nothing now
No point in getting it
What enchant are we using now
is there a WA to track the sephsis buffs?
Sophic?
Yep still sophic
do mutilates use the buff?

Lot of people use https://wago.io/Lgy47ma7G
Another week another echo kill
Another shammy class trinket
At least I can now make the armour patch
so youre saying i can use sap?? 
lol i thought i saw mutilate using the buff and was confused. ty for the WA
Yea, you could
should pick pocket actually
can snag up those crimson vial buffs
boss got neutered

25 yards of space outta nowhere
more
with this change you might be able to do every set without double stacking
@balmy condor your WA is great. Huge thumbs up
@balmy condor I'm pretty sure mutilate is using the sephsis buff
unless the WA is just wrong
Is ambush on your mutilate button i stealth bar?
are you sure you dont have ambush on your stealth bar and when it swaps over you are thinking you are using mutilate but you are actually using ambush
oof
actual insanity
did you see the changes to the shatter
Fixed an issue where Neltharion immediately melee his target after casting Calamitous Strike on all difficulties.
Added a slight delay before the same player can trigger an additional stack of Shatter after destroying Twisted Earth on all difficulties.
Volcanic Heart’s radius reduced from 25 yards to 20 yards on Mythic difficulty.```
o well boss been dead for us
we in p3 sark now

soon freedom
@gusty mirage they nerfed echo so grey could kill it
prove me wrong
qwik was feeling sorry for tmsean
well qwik's guild is also on echo
used to be ion now its qwik
can he feel sorry for me
they are now!
I guarantee you it’s not
as per usual the timing big suck for my guild
gonna lose even more wrs even tho we kill boss under 100 pulls prenerf unluck
unless we kill sark in 3 raids

Do we hold one of our shivs for sepsis?
you want at least one yeah
i normally just float one stack
don't hit 2
and dump both in sepsis as long as i'll have one for deathmark
Yeah I’d never overcap that’s cring
when do you normally use stepsis in rotation? been thinking about actually learning it
in the opener after gar->snd->mut->mut->rupture
then on cooldown
after that
oh ok so just like bonespike?
slightly more nuanced than bonespike; but yes, send it
also makes for a juicy button to slam on fortified week for having empowered garrotes on every IC no matter how cursed your tank's pulling style is 
is it optimal for m+? no; but its fun
honestly i was thinking about trying the ap/ic build anyway since most of my keys are just 10-15s with friends messing around
cant be that much worse can it?
I'd imagine its probably in whispyrs sims somewhere
Don’t make the mistake I made and make sure to have mutilate on your stealth bar 
yeah... had to do a lot of reconfiguring of my bars to add mutilate for raid and fok/ct for m+ stealth bars lol
oh you wouldnt just use ambush or something? thought it was just filler, easy change though
when I swapped off of sepsis-exsang I failed to realize I still had garrote where my mut was in my stealth bar. completely overwrote my emp gar like 3 times on prog attempts before realizing wtf was going on

pins/faq have a good how-to/why
You want to refresh your improved garrotes so when the sepsis buff comes up youll still want to continue as usual to try and get pand on imp gar
yep i should really go over them again, and im also realizing im probably overwriting my empowered garrote by garroting again out of stealth in opener
notter's and zugthug's sepsis WA's are super handy for it
added zug's bars on top of seli's bars for buff timers; then just used the color coding of notter's since it helps me make sure that I use blindside without accidently using the sepsis proc
whispyr's afenar edit w/e pack has a sepsis tracker and empowered garrote tracker
oh so just to be clear, garroting from stealth in opener and then immediately garroting again out of stealth isnt screwing it over?
i should probably just read the opener in pins honestly
yes
if we weren't using sepsis it would be close enough to not matter
w/o sepsis you'd vanish in the opener anyways
yeah
and probably still wouldn't need to double garrote
you don't need to
basically the 6 extra seconds from double garroting isn't worth the gobal being used on something else
but it made the exsang opener slightly more chill
but it's not that big of a deal
either way
yeah with exang you did cuz exang is cringe
and those 6 seconds do mater lol
yeah
well; if you cared about the vanish reset post-DM lineup
but thats old tech now
may it lie in the ground
huh
What takes prio if you’re in a situation where sepsis and vanish are available?
Assuming the sepsis
sepsis
so you only double garrote and rupture if your using exang?
they should never overlap
except on mythic sark if you hold after p1
cuz sepsis comes up right as he phases and it's cringe
well yeah i know its bugged but thats where i saw it initially when i orginally joined before everyone knew it was bugged
I’ve had some instances where I’ve fucked up and I’m in that situation
i'd just sepsis then yeah
cuz if you're already desync'd
then you can just keep vanish in your back pocket as a defensive or somethin
or just use it near when the boss is dying for some extra emp garrote time

sark is a cursed boss for me. I wind up spending 99% of my time just running bombs on repeat because people fuck it up and I have to scramble
I don't think I've parsed higher than a 20 =.=
ive seen ranged just stare at bombs and have to run over to them as melee
i think theyre scared of doing them or have no idea or just to lazy to
I think next week I'm just gonna see if anyone notices me going down nonstop to float the 50% haste. just see what happens 😛
i ignore them
if i die i die
if i'm not parsin, no one parsin

pretty sure goin down intentionally isn't worth
just too much downtime
for rogue
yeah; but you don't need to gather 10 each time if you just stand in bad the entire fight and never lose your buff 
I floated the buff for 4 bombs in a row and was surprisingly doing damage

ohh i see you used to double/triple garrote rupture to extend duration for exsang, i just did it out of habit and forgot why
just grab orb, go down, immediately come back up after grabbing one orb and the circles
every time i go down for bombs on sark i just mentally prepare myself to get flung of the edge or watch another bomb go off
still a fun fight compared to the normal stuff, but it feels scuffed
please, I don't wanna hear it. actually I do apparently
I just wanna know how some dude dropped like 149k on heroic magma. I felt like I played super clean and I ended in the 130s
hey thats me:))
also another question i have, is having 50% mastery and only 30% crit screwing me?
isn't 2:30 like... damn near optimal killtime?
it was yeah, got really lucky on that + pi lol
Regardless of pi nice pull dude
I was enviously combing your log and the best I came up with is I need to crit more

skill issue. hit your keys harder, it makes you crit more
i played sepsis since it was first named on the 15th or smth, so i got the rotation down quite okey
if you aren't critting enough, your keyboard doesn't fear you enough
Yeah tbh I think I’m wasting uptime on empowered garrotes. Do you end up refreshing 3 times from the opener? As in g1 from stealth, g2 first part of sepsis, g3 last part of sepsis while g2 in pandemic?
Or am I overthinking this?
yeah you wanna use both sepsis buffs, you can look in the log to see my opener. i dont even remember anymore if it was clean (but must've been i guess)
yeah, you're thinking it right mook
its just getting used to dragging that sepsis buff for the last one as long as possible that makes a big diff
i reapplied my first normal garrote at 47 secs
Wild. Sepsis is actually so much fun to play around.
Just really gotta pay attention to not refreshing the spicy garrotes with mild garrotes
its why I've got an m+ sepsis build XD ignore the sin of losing IW/SS for doom+sepsis tho
Couldn’t pay me to do this in keys when I got black powder around the corner
Ass is a thinking man’s spec
I’m mentally a fury warrior
yo, we've moved up from F to bottom of D tier on subcreation. we're totally meta now
I just hope something next tier will outclass boon
I’m tired of saving defensives for that trinket
i have it on mythic and i cant be bothered to play with it
f that trinket, the sooner its gone the better
as long as i do enough dmg for my weeklies 21/22 i wont tortue myself playing that
and when its time to push keys theres other trinkets getting close so easy
I thought boon was replaceable by BiS this season 😛
is boon actually a good option over current tier trinkets for m+? i have a hero ilvl one just sitting in my inv
Yes
on mythic its like - 0.3% (dont quote me on that) worse than bis
damn i guess time to use it again then, assuming itd prob take puzzle boxes place over dice
it does depend on the keys you're running though
It’s also depends on how the tank pulls
if you're overkilling small pulls on it its not worth the hassle imo
^
but if you're cranking with your friends and lusting on a mega-pull trash openers, sure
I don’t think it really needs to be mega. Correct me if I’m wrong but against 5+ targets mythic boon is ahead
So semi regular double pulls and it would theoretically be worth
ig one of the bugged keys from yesterday slipped through the cracks
they don't give score
but still upgraded
lol
Does the damage scaling still exist in those keys?
not push week if you don't get io lol
It begs the ultimate question
“Whatcha pushin’ bud?”

pushin sin to the top of D tier on subcreation thats what
My dice just prevented me from getting a beacon
my dice will be replacing beacon 
I went 5 weeks without trinkets at all lol
I think my guild legit forgot I could do damage if I finally get tier/trinkets, rather than having everyone's alts come and snipe every trinket and tier piece in pugs lol
oh nelth still ahead by like 400dps for me
Dice enthusiasts rejoice
Luckily I did snag 447 dice early though
phat
i'm waiting until the fragment sims are fixed so i can hope that they're not as bad as we thought
I'm running incarn icon still t-t

I should probably do my rep this week so I can get rid of my slimy boots
And I’m cooking
Dito 😅
all my friends have ditched theirs though, so its... not so hot anymore XD
