Kill him.

#

Dont get hit.

lean fossil

lmao

#

useful tips?

next arch
#

use deathmark on cooldown.

#

(no, nothing useful)

balmy condor

take a break so you don't get depression fighting the worst boss ever made

#

what spec do ya'll find easiest to use on mythic experiments? debating on assassing vs sub vs outlaw. I main sub but I feel like the mechanics require me to lose a lot of uptime

balmy condor
#

you'd lose just as much on the other specs

outer rune
#

im sorry if I missed a pin somewhere but whats recommended spec for pve noob?

balmy condor
#

raid or m+

balmy condor

#

@balmy condor what's the logic of the vanish sepsis rule on nelth?

#

You use a delayed vanish in opener and then don't have vanish for 2m DM? I don't understand it as worded

cold spoke
#

im actually glad sin is best now

#

dwarf doesnt seem that big anymore so can safely race change YEP

gusty mirage
#

but stinky dwarf

#

could be stinky hayde

#

and be a stinky dwarf

#

that's stinky^2

cold spoke
#

dwarf tho weird

balmy condor
strange python
balmy condor
#

No

strange python
#

Hmm

#

So sepsis garrote, sepsis garrote, vanish garrote in opener. Then at 2 mins you just don't vanish?

balmy condor
#

You don’t have it

#

Because you delayed

strange python
#

Wouldn't it just time out to be up at the same time relative to the 2 min DM that it was in the opener DM?

#

Since DM and vanish both have a 2minute CD?

balmy condor
#

What

#

You vanish at like 40 seconds in

strange python
#

Is that for 4set??

balmy condor
#

No

#

What

#

Okay

#

So you do your opener right

#

Normally you would hold vanish for 2 min

strange python
#

Yep

balmy condor
#

Okay

#

So now, when your second sepsis gar drops, you vanish gar instead

strange python
#

Right.

#

But why

balmy condor
#

When the sepsis comes up again at 1:30

#

You don’t send it

#

Because the boss is gonna run

#

So you hold it for a bit

#

And you send it then

strange python
#

Not better to just cloak and commit?

#

When I cloak nelth fractures I'm only losing a second of uptime with sprint and shadowstep.

balmy condor
#

Yeah but you’re losing a vanish

#

By sending it you get imp gar for every dm, first two from sepsis, then vanish

#

You sepsis the first adds

#

Vanish dm second

#

You get sepsis back for third add

#

And then vanish is synced with dm for 6 min

#

So you get the sepsis gar from the third add on the boss going into p3 as well

#

After the vanish dm at 6 min you get a sepsis in tier and boss dies

#

So now, seeing that, what would you suggest we hold that vanish for

#

You already have every add, every dm covered

#

Only thing left to do is just slam it for uptime

sand inlet
#

Am I wrong with how I think sepsis works, after I hit it shouldn't my next garotte, assuming I don't use any other stealth only ability, be empowered?

gusty mirage
#

you have a 10s window to consume the free stealth ability

#

if you garrote after that window expires, you'll apply a normal garrote

sand inlet
#

Ok, cause I was using it for the first time in a while tonight, but my wa want showing it as empowered, in wonder if I can saw ambush glow, and hit that first, using up the free stealth. I'll test that again.

gusty mirage
#

I highly recommend using a separate tracker for sepsis

sand inlet
#

Ya I was just thinking that

blazing jewel
#

if you have blindside and sepsis buff up you can ambush

#

and it wont eat the buff

sand inlet
#

But if blindside didn't proc naturally, then it would eat the buff I guess.

gusty mirage
#

yea

sand inlet
#

Thx all

spiral pasture
#

yo, do you guys think its the play to swap to assa on zskarn and maybe later bosses? kinda having a hard time deciding

balmy condor
#

It’s just as good as the other specs

blazing jewel
#

all of the rogue specs are fine on the later bosses

balmy condor
#

0 add damage

#

100% boss damage

blazing jewel
#

just pick a flavor of mid that you enjoy

balmy condor
#

Just make sure your guild leader gets that

#

Or you’ll end up like oxi

blazing jewel
#

oxi will end up playing outlaw by the time sark dies quote me now

balmy condor
#

Amen

#

Oxi will end up playing warlock by the time sark dies

#

And he’ll get PI’s

vestal wren
#

peepostudy best assassination spec is warlock

balmy condor
#

Hey hey

His warlock is like 430

So was the big rogue overhaul that was said a while ago just the aura buff or we got some rework coming still?

bruh the fact they changed sarkareth swirlies in P3 from purple to blue on a blue/purple floor really helps my eyes

blazing jewel

They also show clearly through black hole now which is a really big deal

And contrast with the hide lines

#

Guys call me cooked

But blindside procs have me bricked

#

is wowanalyzer for assa good?

it is decent for assa actually but kinda krangled for others

balmy condor

That’s why we don’t have !log in here

#

im kinda confused i got blue parse but wowanalyzer doesnt show any major mistakes

#

besides not potting cuz fuck pots in a pug hc xd

deft flicker
#

Bacon crits, sophic procs, externals, might be stuff like that

spiral pasture
#

didnt use beacon, but it could be very bad nelth trinket procs

deft flicker
#

Might very well be

blazing jewel
#

Also can’t forget gear

#

Or kill times

royal lantern
#

beacon if it crits

#

nelth if it procs in moments where it actually does something

spiral pasture
#

almost 4 min fight

#

those really are cringe procs arent they

deft flicker
#

Yeah

#

Also no 3rd dm during execute which is sad

spiral pasture
#

good point

#

should hold it next time

deft flicker
#

Yeah, second dm can line ip with third sepsis rather nicely

#

But if the fight lasts a bit longer you might lose a dm by holding

spiral pasture
#

still unsure if i should keep on going as sub for zskarn and later bosses, assa seems to be pulling ahead ST atm

royal lantern
#

doesnt matter

#

rogue sucks for them anyway kekman

spiral pasture
#

not really anymore

hollow dirge
#

assa a very miniscule better choice then 😄

spiral pasture
#

i barely touch them like send 1 sectec on 2nd and 3rd sets

#

honestly im tilted by lack of mobility on sub more than anything, like 1 min sprint and 2 steps you can get on assa seem so nice xd

hollow dirge
#

well, sub got rupture spread, assa got mobility, it's very logical move, considering specs themes and histories

spiral pasture
#

xdd

#

its so scuffed idk

#

class tree is such a pile of design mistakes

hollow dirge
#

we'll get a rework at some point when it does not matter, just gotta wait 😄

spiral pasture
#

love when ion goes and says we dont want to make a choice of throughput and utility cuz theres a right answer and then they send rogue tree being 80% dps

willow falcon
#

lack of mobility on sub? you can get double step and you have double vanish +ss

spiral pasture
#

not so sure about rework anymore, it could be that the tuning rogue is getting for annulet nerf and ghostly strike etc. is all that was planned

royal lantern

sub mobility in DF is abysall

hollow dirge
willow falcon
#

I mean it's something

hollow dirge
#

you know what else's something? shiv dmg buff

willow falcon
#

i more often find myself using vanish for mobility than dmg outside of the opener

spiral pasture
#

if beacon and class trinket are simming basically within margin, which one would you go with?

balmy condor
#

Beacon probably

#

Bacon is nice but I hate the casttime.

cerulean nest
#

is there a delay when it does it's damage after the cast? or is it immediately after the cast?

#

the visual effect psychs me out

balmy condor
#

Short delay yeah

sand sigil
#

what do we drop exsang for on st? just ma?

blazing jewel
#

Standard for most bosses

sand sigil
blazing jewel
#

It can vary slightly depending on kill times

#

Like some play 3pt zoldyck on rashok

#

Would drop shrouded for it

cerulean nest
blazing jewel
#

I’m on mobile so wcl is bad but I think that was a fairly common thing to do for that fight time

gusty mirage
blazing jewel
#

Still some taking it in rashok logs without exsang

gusty mirage
#

And vel got r1s playing master poisoner in sod

blazing jewel
#

Whispyr and notter caterm

#

I swear he was cooking and running sims specific for that fight time

gusty mirage
#

Oh

#

well you never played exsang on rashok

#

Sorry I’m stupid

blazing jewel
#

I found the message about the reasoning

#

“Timing suck execute good”

#

I’ll change my statement from most to some lol

gusty mirage
thorn fjord
#

Rashok is a straight up bitch

#

6% and still no fucking kill

blazing jewel
#

I wonder if the timing was bad for sepsis where 3rd zoldyck > ss because of less improved garrote uptime

#

Idk maybe I’m cooking

#

“You get 4min dm right when execute hits”

gusty mirage
blazing jewel
#

Oxi are you sure you can say that right now

blazing jewel
gaunt moat
#

@blazing jewel are you need getting the full 4th dm in?

blazing jewel
#

What

gaunt moat
#

Are we talking about rashok?

blazing jewel
#

Kinda

#

More so about kill times and dropping ss for 3pt zoldyck

Rashok is a great fkn fight

#

6.25 min of perfect execution

gusty mirage
#

Easily the best fight in the raid

#

Such a banger boss

blazing jewel
#

Why couldn’t they make magmorax good

#

Would have made this tier so much better

#

coms were more pumped killing it during enrage cast than raz kill xd

#

Why did they let Jonathan Newsham design Zskarn

blazing jewel

Why did he design zskarn

#

So many questions

#

Why does zskarn still exist

they gotta nerf it this week right?? right>???COPIUM

its actually awful

Like people didn’t cheese it because it was fun

#

They cheesed it because the fight was ass

blazing jewel

rain oyster
#

I think making it 1 random trap instead of two is a likely nerf

earnest remnant
#

dont really see a reason for me to play assa

#

so i wont

rain oyster
#

fight will be still ass

gusty mirage
#

Yep

#

They need to just turn it into a standard patchwerk sim

#

#

Let people move on

hey fellas I dont see that they mention but when should I use trinket in the opener?

#

or do I use it after im finished w opener?

tacit otter
#

depends what trinket youre talking about

rain hound
#

beacon

tacit otter
#

you can get your bleeds up -> beacon -> Dm, or if you play bomb + beacon you can use beacon after opener

subtle field
#

Hey guys, can anyone help me with this?

Following this priority, step 4 says to envenom for Poison bomb. would i be spamming envenom then basically all the time ( with cp ofc ) as its 4th priority and i can always gamble for poison bombs

gaunt moat
#

It's ambigous to a certain degree when to use envenom or CT.
Basically:
Are targets stacked on top of eachother? Envenom
Are targets Spread / is CT bleed about to run out? CT

#

The AoE for poison bomb is pretty small

subtle field
#

Yeah, sorry if i didnt phrase my question correctly. but its not about CT. Its basically anything after 4. Because this is not a list step by step this is a priority. So me being able to do Priority 4 Again and Again and Again would have me ignoring anything after 4

balmy condor
#

Due to the constraints of wowheads requests when making the rotations page, it’s impossible to list out things in a priority from top to bottom

subtle field
#

That makes sense. Thank you!

balmy condor
#

You’re correct that 4 is a “dump” for cp repeatedly, but the stuff below should be seen as more situational/cooldown related things while the above is rotational

#

Kinda how that’s laid out

#

I agree it’s confusing though

subtle field
#

Well you cleared up the confusion, thanks again 🙂

balmy condor
#

That entire page is kinda dogshit because of the tool if I’m being honest

#

Rotation page is a pain to maintain and has very little functionality

#

Kinda just is what it is

subtle field
#

Well you made the best of it probably

balmy condor
#

I try to

#

They don’t make it easy KEKL

normal otter
#

some additional questions to the rotation / priority. I just noticed that even in a heavy mutli target group fan of knives sometimes only generates 1 combo point. So when to use multilate and when use fan of knives?

Also for me it feels like youre using ambush really rarely because you optimaly want to use empowered garrote to as many targets as you can in the 3 secs after stealth when you dont have IC up.

balmy condor
#

Correct to all that

#

Fok on 2 if you’re not in Deathmark, 3 if you are

storm onyx
#

Fok at 2 targets?

#

I have missed that one

idle inlet
#

Is there a way to sim for target situations like sarkareth where sometimes there are adds and sometimes there isn't. If there isn't is there a way to know which trinket is best or just stick with the decent trinkets and you are fine

tacit otter
#

there is a way, but its not really easy if youre not really into simc stuff. for a normal person like myself just stick to the decent trinkets you would play anyway

balmy condor
#

And if you’re not a normal person you stick to the trinkets you would play anyway too

#

Because adds aren’t your problem

#

You play rogue

#

Not warrior

polar fiber
#

So toxic thorn>slimy boots? I thought toxic thorn was oversimming

tacit otter
#

not anymore, they sim correctly now

prisma carbon
#

Any reason the opener in the faq mutilates after SnD instead of using Echoing Reprimand?

tacit otter
#

both is fine, ER slighty better but not enough to edit faq pictures again

gusty mirage
#

like in the last 10 days new

prisma carbon
#

i see

#

is this also okay or is delaying trinket til after rupture bad?

tacit otter
#

this would be the optimal usage, get dots up -> beacon -> sepsis -> dm

#

some people use beacon on pull and vanish but not a gain, just a convenience

#

so the picture does is perfectly right

prisma carbon
#

okay perfect ty 🙂

Guys, is there a known bug with Leeching poison? My logs show 0 leech healing even though Im 100% sure I had leathal poisons on (dmg is in the logs) and Leeching Poison too (since I used tea) on a M Kazzara fight

runic hinge
#

You have to reapply poisons every time you zone in anywhere

thin scroll
#

pretty sure I did but its a known bug then?

runic hinge
#

Yes

also, previous pulls had the leech healing

just checked

#

Regarding echoing reprimand and anima charged combo points, is there a general ruleset for this, like we should or should not be using it for rupture

#

and is that just sent on CD after opener

spice spire
#

Rupture is fine to use

#

And yes

clever kindle
#

Thanks

thick sail
#

@quartz kraken if you type /wa, then click on Luxthos, the right side of the add on should reveal a bunch of tabs. I believe in the first tab there's a slider, try changing it to like 0.8 and see if you like it

#

And go from there

clever kindle
#

Also, for the sepsis opener, for the initial sepsis stealth garrote after hitting ER-> Envenom do we wait for that to hit pandemic

#

or do we just hit it right away and sac a few seconds

quartz kraken
#

is instant poison default lethal?

idle inlet
quartz kraken
pure comet
#

Insta poison? I only use it when trying sub

#

Never heard of this playing sin at all

tacit otter
#

you dont, its just the passive you get at lvl 1. at row 1 in the spec tree you get deathly and you use that always

#

you never use instant as an poison

quartz kraken
#

can you use 2 lethal poisons? thought its 1 lethal and 1 other one

spice spire
#

If you have DTB you use two lethal

#

You’d never use instant

tacit otter
#

its deathly (always) + amp if you use dtb

quartz kraken
#

whats dtb again?

spice spire
#

Deadly is instant + it ticks.
And amp if you talent into it

hey guys, i'm trying out sin this expansion and i've got a question concerning the aoe rotation, i read the guides but couldn't really find an answer for my question; i saw an assassin rogue simply spam crimson tempest like it was black powder, in aoe situations is that better than casting envenom over and over after applying the empowered garrote and rupture on everyone

#

now i know sin hasn't really been that good in aoe ever, but im simply curious how i can at least make it work in some dungeons

gusty mirage
#

short answer: doesn't matter, as long as your bleeds are rolling, you have slice and dice up, you can spam crimson tempest, or spam envenom to fish for poison bomb procs

barren fiber
#

that's something i need to get into the habit of, i'm so used to playing sub and never really worrying about reapplying my SnD

#

i find myself not activating it at all on sin since i dont get it passively

tacit otter
barren fiber

yeah, i should get into the habit of it

hasty vine
#

yeah you press S&D even less on sin than sub. and as mentioned it's not super important in AoE which finisher you use. if crimson tempest is already up on everything with enough duration, then i like using envenom for funnel and keeping up the envenom buff, and that helps with S&D

#

i think optimally it's been said envenom for poison bomb is better during 4 set buff

royal lantern
#

in most dungeons you press it once

#

except if you have 40sec+ downtimes bettwen fights cus people died and need to run

What are we using to sim right now, because last week when I ran a droptimizer it told me Nelth trinket was an upgrade. Now that I have it, it’s telling me not to use it.

And I mean are we using nightly or weekly

wa's working on echo?

#

thought you need to do some cringe macro shit for the private aura thingy

spice surge
#

Its some cringe WA shit

#

Where it wont tell you what to do, but give you a list where it shows all of the people with the debuff and you have to manually count which number in the list you are

#

Instead of the WA telling you what number you are

The sepsis buff is not consumed by blindside procs, but they will be consumed by regular ambush casts. If you're using a stealth bar (or some sort of macro) to turn your mutilate into ambush, you need to get rid of it. >> During my sepis I just can't click on my ambush that are blindsided...

#

so i use mutilate instead...

gaunt moat
#

I'm starting to think taking cloak from the vault wasn't worth it. The stamina loss is harsh starege

#

i'm dying when i shouldn't

blissful forge
#

i mean the cloak is like -30k hp

#

its not that big if you press defs. correct xD

mortal tusk
# balmy condor what?

When I can use a stealth abitlity from sepsis and I got a blindside proc, I just can't click on ambush, it won't let me, until I use garrot. (happens a lot when i wait for the 2nd empowered garrot). is it normal ?

#

so I use mutilate instead

balmy condor
#

no that's not nomral

#

why can't you click on ambush?

mortal tusk
#

nothing happen

you have a blindside proc

we still run toxic patch with it right?

we just swap out boots?

its not on simc

Why

Did you do this

balmy condor

Idk

#

Why is 952587837558128701 a thing

vapid sierra
#

so is shiv 1/2 cp generation random

#

and er 2/4?

balmy condor
#

They generate 1 cp and 2 cp respectively

#

Seal fate can proc, adding 1 cp to each

scenic horizon
#

im curious, is there a reason in the non exsang opener that we dont ER rupture into sepsis deathmark?

#

Guess I've played exsang so long now it feels weird not to

balmy condor
#

Doesn’t make a difference really

#

The er with shiv can give you an extra envenom sometimes

#

But it’s not really relevant

scenic horizon
#

I shall absorb this knowledge. Thank you.

balmy condor
#

Holy

#

What an art piece

scenic horizon
#

Ty. I made them for a friend.

balmy condor

My favorite is still the couple days where a sepsis garrote background change in the sims cause exsang openers to spam rupture for 30 seconds before casting exsang dm

#

And it only being -2.2%

I feel the same way playing my dumb shadow priest alt except I get to do 300% more damage in dungeons with less effort. Actually feels awful. I stay loyal to the rogue though.

vapid sierra
#

so how do i sin on sark in heroic? ive only ever cleared it on sub

#

feel like timmings would be weird

balmy condor
#

Depends how fast you’re clearing it

#

Usually holding sepsis is a good idea on dark

vapid sierra
#

sepsis for when he disappears after adds?

balmy condor
#

For after intermission

#

When he disappears it’s for like 3-4 seconds and you step back

#

No reason to care about that

vapid sierra
#

im holding sepsis for after the very first intermession

#

after glittering

#

we phase it quick there

#

and then i come out with dm and sepsis up

#

do i just do the opener sequence?

#

where would vanish fit into that

balmy condor
#

you would vanish in p1

vapid sierra
#

ah as pin says

#

and then since im already holding when i get up itll be up for second dm

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

the sepsis covers you for the 2 min

pure comet
#

I'm a happy rogue tonight

vapid sierra
#

sepsis garrote fade= when the second sepsis garrote is in pandemic right?

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

I like letting it expire and then double garroting

#

which is technically worse

#

but my brain has the feel good juice when I do it

vapid sierra
#

if rl wants me to run wound poison

balmy condor
#

and I'm an ape

vapid sierra

which posion do i drop

balmy condor

thats what i tried telling them

no way

yeah adds healing

does it even do something?

#

im having to play sub

loud light
#

well p3 they have the buff and you can't get rid of it, but still

vapid sierra
#

since it woud be too mcuh loss as sin

vapid sierra
balmy condor
#

as in you're playing a rogue

#

and you don't have anything to help

vapid sierra
#

but doesnt it reduce the healing they take?

#

and wouldn that help since they heal>/

balmy condor
#

they ain't fucking supposed to

vapid sierra
#

ahh its cause we carry the adds over in

#

p2 adds heal p3 ones dont?

blazing jewel
#

Is this mythic or heroic sark

vapid sierra
#

heroic

#

we get caught on this boss every week and its piss annoying

loud light
#

p3 adds heal and there are no blossom to remove the buff, you just dps through it

blazing jewel
#

Can have any sort of knockback to push them into the puddles

#

And they will get insta killed

gusty mirage
#

why is this a thing

blazing jewel
tall atlas
#

The problem isn’t the adds heal it’s probably your raid isn’t hitting them enough

#

I honestly didn’t even know they healed so just

#

Go sub and black powder them to death?

vapid sierra
#

got sark cloak

dark token

It's like 0.4% DPS loss

Oh noo

balmy condor

Oh sorry thought this was sub channel

#

Yeah on assa it blows

#

Sub my instant poison does like 500k dmg while wound poison does 300k

#

Oh noo

#

I actually take wound poison for p3 prog on mythic sark, maybe when people get better I drop it

#

Worth doing as assa as well until people get used to it

#

Just temporary for prog

earnest remnant

never once went wound

earnest remnant
#

p3 adds gets blown the fuck up

gusty mirage

you've said a lot of fried takes over the last 3 years

#

but I'm impressed

#

this one is actually outdoing the others

#

by a lot

dark token
#

Idk seemed worth on our prog to see more of p3

gusty mirage
#

its worth inting your damage to "see more of p3"?

dark token
#

You don't need the boss damage until you get used to it

#

Yeah

gusty mirage
#

brother

#

just go back to sub

balmy condor
#

I'm getting a headache

dark token
#

All the adds not dying due to losing people from p2-p3 transition, wound poison made it way more consistent and we got to 3rd black hole a couple times after starting running it

#

Losing some boss dam to reduce pullcount and then swapping at the end seems worth

gusty mirage
#

if they're not dying because you're losing people

#

and you need wound poison for them to die

#

what benefit are you getting from "seeing more of p3"

#

with half the raid alive

#

meaning half the raid isn't actually "seeing" more of the phase

dark token
#

Practicing and understanding mechanics

gusty mirage
#

if you're floor pov how are you practicing anything

dark token
#

True actually

#

Floor pov people the ones that need to learn

gusty mirage
#

esp on that boss when if someone gets too many stacks and goes down

#

you pretty much wiped the group

earnest remnant
#

even with like 5 people dying to p2-p3 transition the adds got blown up in just a few sec

dark token
#

Idk ur group pads way more than mine

#

I was also able to run black powder on neltharion as a result

earnest remnant
#

so many classes come out with cds

dark token
#

But on sark it's not working out

earnest remnant
#

and they do passive cleave

#

just went to check

#

first add set with everybody alive tho

#

lived for 11 sec

which is just enhance + 2x fury and evoker in cds

both boots are simming fine

I'm not entirely sure, I know leech didn't proc it

vapid sierra
#

if im dotting adds on zskarn for energy

#

do i just get a rupture out? or is garrote better

balmy condor
#

just throw a rupture out

#

they die real fast

#

no point hitting it with a garrote if its gonna die that quick

vapid sierra
#

ty

#

4cp would be fine rgiht/

balmy condor

yeh

vapid sierra

since its for energy and not dam

i always find myself finishing fights trying to waste tea since i horde it too much

need to be sending tea a bit more

I'd probably consider 3cp as well

dotting those adds is like a free tea

Hi, is anybody already replace onyx annulet with normal 447 ring? crit haste is used? I have 10%
Sim says that I should not replace it, better to craft crit/mastery ring to replace the other one.
Or even I want to replace onyx, better to craft Haste/Crit.

I wish I never knew what a sim is!!!!

Hi, I have a somewhat stupid question, is it worth to go tauren for sin rogue in raid? or it isn't that much net gain over blood elf? thanks in advance

next arch
#

Race difference is like a % at best.

#

Tauren look ugly af so no.

clever sapphire
#

Having cool transmog is the biggest % gain you can have. Changing race is worthless (unless you are like top 0.1% of the playerbase)

blazing jewel
#

Usually racial abilities are much more impactful in raid than the 1% dps at most

blazing jewel
#

Dwarf isn’t far behind and has stoneform which is usually more impactful than Tauren

deft flicker
#

The only races I’d consider worth rerolling to performance-wise are Dwarf (any of them), Nelf, Orc (mainly for PvP). Everything else is like less than 1% difference (easily negated by gear diff, procs, uptime, etc)

Its even less with light movement ... I wonder if its because of using 2x 'Shadowflame Tempered Armor Patch'.

Actually there is no dps gain ...because I'm comparing 428 boots vs 437 ... so its about the same damage to use 2x 'Shadowflame Tempered Armor Patch' than Boots+toxic patch according to this simulation
