Especially on uptime

keen spruce
#

i mean most parsing at all is very much gear and rng dependent

cobalt hemlock
#

well yeah but you can impact your gear

keen spruce
#

and team

cobalt hemlock
#

yeah but to much less extent

keen spruce
#

like respectable gear, okay team, aim for >blue parses

#

as long as bosses are dying

cobalt hemlock
#

for mythic when you do all mechanics its cool yeah

clever sapphire
#

if im gonna ask for a log review in 1 week its gonna be like "ye you did everything well, sadly boss died at 5:50 so shit kill time, your bacon only crit once, your ring only procced enough to be 3% of your dmg, keep it up tho"

cobalt hemlock
#

thats how it can go

clever sapphire
#

and this is exactly why im only really interested in my logs the first 2 weeks

#

or 3

keen spruce
#

0/3 beacon crits and leap during my first 2 deathmarks dead

clever sapphire
#

damn you really had big impact on that log being only 75, should have vanished just before leap so you dont get it

bigbrain reddit takes going strong again:

Hunter is bad deffensive wise, because after you used all your deffensives, you have nothing against dmg anymore

cobalt hemlock
#

lmao

royal lantern
#

when all deffensives are on cd, you dont have them avaible

cobalt hemlock
#

hunter brain

royal lantern
#

i have been enlightend

#

and thats only a Hunter thing btw dracthyr_kek

clever sapphire
#

well obviously

#

have you ever seen a rogue die before a hunter?

cobalt hemlock
#

lot of factors if you die first or later

clever sapphire
#

of course not, hunters dont have defensives after they are on cooldown

#

but only hunters

cobalt hemlock
#

i love when i use your cloak and its back up again imidiately

clever sapphire
#

(im hella bored and tired, dont take me seriously)

cobalt hemlock
#

im bored too

clever sapphire
#

because hunter died

#

now my cloak reset

cobalt hemlock
#

have to do my stupid m+ run for the week at least

clever sapphire
#

i only opened wow this week to check if i can make a vulpera rogue named bladefurry, after that i closed it

cobalt hemlock
#

in full group can be fine but pugging sucks so much

clever sapphire
#

im pretty sure my vault is still full from last week and i havent done anything this week

cobalt hemlock
#

go open your vault and report what you got

clever sapphire
#

not even at home, so cant do that sadly

royal lantern
#

"hunter has no passive mitigation"

#

WHO HAS PASSIVE MITIGATION??

#

do other specs just always take 20% less dmg? OMEGAKEKW

stray sage
#

just play mastery survival hunter

cobalt hemlock
#

warlocks?

clever sapphire
#

its called having a brain so you dodge abilities so you take less dmg

#

thats passive for us

#

hunters gonna complain when they gotta move as a bm hunter

solid mica
#

"Rogue pumps" -every other class all the time

vestal wren
#

thats all bosses

clever sapphire
#

could this be inflated by assaults existence?

#

im not sure how hard you could pad on assault, but surely there is some shit where people farm logs on one side

keen spruce
#

from my experience, every not-rogue thinks that rogues are blasting

clever sapphire
#

just because rogues are good at their class and not rerolling every 2 weeks to the new fotm dracthyr_kek

#

and we have good TC so minmaxing is a lot easier with smart people

solid mica
#

Warlock tops meters-"youre insane!", rogue tops meters "rogues busted!" kekdog

clever sapphire
#

rogues should be praised more for topping the meters, its actually hard as a rogue with all these busted specs besad

#

how pugs think when rogue is on top: "damn rogue is busted and you guys suck so hard"
how pugs think when warlock is on top: "damn this warlock is a freaking gamer, imma simp for him"

spice surge
#

But specs that stack vers have a lot of passive damage reduction, my sub gear has almost 15% DR from vers OMEGAKEKW

royal lantern
#

bruh

#

BRUH

#

you just suck balls

clever sapphire
#

and are you still topping meters in your new guild?

royal lantern
#

🙂

spice surge
#

Yee but HP isnt as good as DR usually

#

But its good ye

royal lantern
#

but thats a given

clever sapphire
#

damn rogue is busted

spice surge
#

And its mostly BM, mm is still super squishy

royal lantern
#

long zoldyck phase

clever sapphire
#

ddoes rashok get some kind of dmg reduction in execute? Or how come execute is so good on him

#

i dont get it

#

im just a dumbo heroic raider

limber lion
#

More mechanics, harder to dps, people die more, overall dps thus lower

spice surge
#

The longer the fight goes the more mechanics you have to dodge and more healing required

royal lantern
clever sapphire
#

i love rashok instantly

#

feck them ranges

royal lantern
#

its the best fight this tier

clever sapphire
#

thats what i always hear, only reason i became interested in maybe raiding again

#

but then realised that i would have to find a guild for that

#

then get there

#

aaaand i got off the hype train

limber lion
#

"Get there" ain't much

#

It's pretty much the first wall of the raid

royal lantern
solar bramble
#

well. . . . magmorax is worse but for a different reason. . zskarn i just hate with a passion

#

and the 1st boss, i hate the first boss. . . rng on if you get lazer and the only one available is so far out in left field it'd be a home run

royal lantern
#

ranged is actually griefing you

#

aka 99% of ranged players dracthyr_kek

solar bramble
#

the fight is on farm to such a point i dont' think many of us even pay that much attention to it. . .

but ya most ranged :(. . the melee pools also get eaten by the ranged half the time.

#

if there were any to begin with (evokers mostly)

keen spruce
#

we had to make the ranged stand behind the far puddles

#

fkin griefers

solar bramble
#

oh what was the command for whispyrs spreadsheet

#

since we no longer use ensanguinate i'm guessing that was updated already?

clever sapphire
#

!whispyr

prisma monolithBOT
swift magnet
#

Does the Beacon receive any damage amps from the assa tree?

deft flicker
#

Nope

solar bramble
#

not even MA to my knowledge. . . even though symbols of death crit rate does boost it

#

pft a lot of haste in the sin bis lol. . . i has sub gear. . . my haste is negative

#

i'll need 2 haste high rings it looks like, to balance out the complete lack of haste in sub gear

keen spruce
#

it don't matter

clever sapphire
#

there are assa rogues with 0 haste

#

or some with 20%

solar bramble
#

my sin odly sims higher than my sub which is funny. . . 96k vs 99k

subtle tundra
#

In no way that is odd

solar bramble
#

assumed sub was over sin. though i guess they were close enough that last 5% flipped them

clever sapphire
#

my sin was always ahead of my sub

solar bramble
#

they were always close for me. a few times sin was ahead a few times sub was ahead at different points of gear

normal otter
#

Sin is always ahead of everything.

clever sapphire
#

actually imma leave it at that, dont wanna argue since i only started in SL

#

aaaaaactually i can argue with a few points. S3 an S4 of shadowlands was outlaw only pretty much, S1 of DF assa was good for the heroic week, since then it has been the worst rogue spec slooooowly climbing to finally beat sub in full on ST setting

#

we are ahead in the stages of grief regarding changes, thats true

#

i love my clumsy little assa rogue as he is

gusty mirage
#

S3 of SL was outlaw?

#

That’s news to me

clever sapphire
#

was it S4 only? 🤔

gusty mirage
#

It was for sure s4 only

#

Their tier set was barely working all of s3

clever sapphire
#

welp i started end of S2, S3 i was still meh, S4 was when i started lookin into rogue discord

gusty mirage
#

They got giga buffed in s4 and then stonked the fuck out

clever sapphire
#

ye i remember, still played my nightfae assa for the memes

#

i loved me some haste circle under my little feet

gusty mirage
#

They only needed 25% buffs to all their abilities and an aura buff

#

Poor pirates got neglected

clever sapphire
#

atleast they got to keep their pistol shot legendaries dracthyr_shrug

gusty mirage
#

We got to keep sepsis COPIUM

clever sapphire
#

where is my deathspike, or sepsis legendary, or the sepsis circle under my feet that was probably useless but felt good

#

or flag

#

oh wait sub has flag

gusty mirage
#

You know the saddest part about no deathspike?

#

Is that it was worth like 100 dps in ST

#

And made bonespike insane in m+/aoe

#

They could’ve legit made it just baseline

#

And it would’ve been fine

clever sapphire
#

iiiiiii dont care, i am the AP/IC/CB player here that whispyr hates, i love me my good old aoe even if its useless in ST

spice spire
#

ST deniers SCpuke

clever sapphire
#

i also enjoyed the deathspike outlaw gameplay in S4 even tho that wasnt bis

gusty mirage
#

Like there was legit 0 reason not to have it baseline

spice spire
#

I always enjoyed sbs gameplay

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

I’ve been playing it since 9.0 gigarat

clever sapphire
#

they could just replace sbs with deathspike and they wouldnt see much of a dmg change

#

but atleast it would feel good to use

gusty mirage
#

Yep

#

Would’ve changed nothing about it in ST

clever sapphire
#

its just smooth satisfying playstyle

gusty mirage
#

And been wonderful in cleave and aoe

clever sapphire
#

its coming in rogue changes, trust copium

clever sapphire
#

i remember someone saying it was busted

gusty mirage
#

It was in SL beta

#

It would do like a little aoe cleave on impact when you’d initially spike

#

Then that was removed starege

clever sapphire
#

baaaah that sounds even more fun

gusty mirage
#

Then we had the option of night fae and night fae

#

Until they giga buffed sbs and flag in 9.0.5

clever sapphire
#

i enjoyed me some nightfae gaming, you know, because it did dmg with vendetta and S3 tierset

#

i mean flag was still better

gusty mirage
#

They had to rework flag almost from the ground up

clever sapphire
#

only to now give it to 1 spec and without the legendary part

#

well done

vestal wren
gusty mirage
#

It used to do like no damage and cost 2 GCDs

vestal wren
#

i want sl beta sbs back besad

gusty mirage
#

And if you didn’t activate flag the 2nd time you didn’t get the haste buff

#

But the problem is

clever sapphire
#

wait what, that sounds scuffed as hell

gusty mirage
#

Using it was a dps loss

vestal wren
#

flag goa lot of value from scars too

#

if you look at subtlety now, flag is not good because of the damage it does

gusty mirage
#

SL was a very very scuffed time for rogues

clever sapphire
#

i really dont understand why the only legendarry they kept was ER

gusty mirage
#

Akaari’s got gutted in beta lol

#

So sub went from giga to meh

#

Assassination was unplayable

vestal wren
#

assassination s1 was wild

#

from being undertuned

#

to being the only rogue spec you could play

gusty mirage
#

51% in aura buffs kekdog

clever sapphire
#

damn so i missed the best part of SL

#

the assa meta

gusty mirage
#

2 covenant reworks

#

Added cttc

vestal wren
#

i think a lot of SL was considerd bad for assassination

#

when it wasn't bad at all

gusty mirage
#

This channel was legit Cev, whispyr, and quake

#

For the first 3 months of the expac

clever sapphire
drifting cloud
#

I mean it was deserved lets be true

spice spire
drifting cloud
#

it was so stupidly bad

spice spire
#

Do not forget the goat

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

Yeah

gusty mirage
#

All 3 specs were cranking

drifting cloud
#

has anything even come close to being as bad as start of sl assa

gusty mirage
#

Due to the domination shards

spice spire
#

Even m+ it was pretty nice

drifting cloud
#

maybe some guardian druid iteration

vestal wren
#

s2 was sub meta early on

solar bramble
#

ya flaggelation is only good for it's mastery boost

vestal wren
#

but then was split quite evenly between sub/assassination

clever sapphire
#

tbf it was probably only in my head, but the fact that you could only have 1 covenant at a time and they all played a bit differently made it more fun than having the covenants in the talent trees like currently

gusty mirage
spice spire
#

Nah it was full sub meta

#

Sin just didn’t feel 10x worse

#

Just like twice as bad

solar bramble
#

i only liked flaggelation covenant wise. but i never played with shards of domination

spice spire
#

But st it cranked

vestal wren
#

s2 ha equal spread between sub and sin in logs

#

s3 was just besad

#

and everything after was just outlaw

gusty mirage
#

We got actually ruined with dom shards getting disabled

spice spire
#

Unpopular, I liked the 4p s3.

gusty mirage
#

We went from all 3 being great in raid to pretty much shit

clever sapphire
#

i remember that i started with assa in SL and there was a rogue i looked up to in the guild who was always beating me. I looked back at the logs now and he was doing 30s and i was doing 5s OMEGAKEKW

vestal wren
#

s3 was weird to me

spice spire
#

I did not like some of the play styles it enabled tho

#

Sub 4p was dog

drifting cloud
#

s3 was better than start of this tier tbh

gusty mirage
vestal wren
#

assassiantion was basically not played even tho it performed on par with subtlety (or even better)

drifting cloud
#

its just everyone brought daggers forward so there was no need to go assa

gusty mirage
#

I remember playing sub on xymox

#

Getting sent to the platform

#

And proccing my life away

drifting cloud
#

and without the venthyr cev tech spec would have been big poopoo

gusty mirage
#

Then next pull 0 procs

#

0 dps

clever sapphire
#

but it was fun when you got the procs

gusty mirage
#

“What did you do different?”

vestal wren
#

i think every time you rely on rng

gusty mirage
#

“Idk man I rolled worse numbers”

vestal wren
#

you end up in a weird position

clever sapphire
#

same with outlaws pistol shot legendary, now its like baseline and you just assume you will have a billion pistol shots

vestal wren
#

last season legion was the problem

#

that your log depended on poison bomb procs

drifting cloud
#

poison bomb during MA in opener

vestal wren
#

pb procs during execute empowerment

#

also hope people die to slow down to get more procs during that phase

clever sapphire
#

dunno, those procs are what made it feel really fun imo. Even just the pistol shots, i made a wa and had it do a soundeffect when i got a proc

#

and that already felt good

solar bramble
#

i thnk i'm playing assass wrong even on a dummy. . . looking at logs for sin, even like a minute in their isn't much break between globals. . . I feel like i'm always energy starved lol

clever sapphire
#

or just spamming BP as sub because the tierset procced

clever sapphire
#

thistle tea

solar bramble
#

but thsoe should fade by a minute in.

vestal wren
#

assassination was stronger on lords

#

s3 was just weird

clever sapphire
#

but it was fun

#

now i dont even remember what my tierset does

gusty mirage
clever sapphire
#

or half of my talents

vestal wren
#

i am honest, the most fun xpac i played was legion

solar bramble
#

they do look to be spread out a little bit much after 1m. but nowhere near the same degree mine seem like. . . compared to sub i feel like a slug lol

gusty mirage
#

Then I remember lords of dread

vestal wren
#

SL was probably the worse

#

overall

gusty mirage
#

Idk who decided to have an among us phase in a boss and provide 0 in game interface for the voting

austere fulcrum
gusty mirage
#

But they’re brilliant

normal mist
#

Guys i need help with this banter I'm having on guild discord with a hunter:
"Yeah must be cool parsing well as assassination rogue, while there are only like 5k parses, meanwhile hunters have 20k, a lot harder to parse well".
Assassination bros i need a good comeback to this kekdog

gusty mirage
#

That’s your comeback

normal mist
#

Already used that one

vestal wren
#

tell them to play assassination rogue then

solar bramble
vestal wren
#

easy

gusty mirage
#

Also it’s harder to parse with less parses

vestal wren
#

it is harder to parse high

gusty mirage
#

Because chances are the people playing the spec are really good at it

#

The less popular it is

#

vs hunter

#

Which everyone plays and they play it poorly

normal mist
#

Thanks assa bros

gusty mirage
#

I don’t think I’ve ever met a hunter and was impressed

solar bramble
#

hunter isnt' even hard to play (bm that is). . . it has some neuanes regarding barbed shot timing but not a lot more

gusty mirage
#

The “good” hunters are actually just the least dumb

#

But they’re still dumb

#

Unlucky

normal mist
#

Well

#

This in particular is my gf

#

She mad

#

XDDDDD

solar bramble
#

i wouldn't say they're dumb. . maybe they just prefer a much slower spec lol

#

at least the better ones

#

if you do poorly on bm . . . you have physical restrictions, or mental restrictions

normal mist
#

She's like 95.x on normal aberrus overall

austere fulcrum
normal mist
#

Rank 600 something

gusty mirage
normal mist
#

And she mad I'm rank 21

gusty mirage
solar bramble
#

managing sin i can do. it's the pacing.

#

but i'm not overly worried. i'd like better energy regen on sin but it's fine to be a bit slower

#

hell sub ocne it loses the 2 piece next tier will feel weird

versed canopy
#

@balmy condor I was reading through your recent pinned note about the AoE build and it mentioned using Cold Blood. What would be dropped in order to get Cold Blood for AoE? I cannot find a reccomended build using it

clever sapphire
#

Oh thats a hot topic dracthyr_kek

#

Do you mean with also playing AP/IC

#

Or regular build but with CB

versed canopy
#

with AP/IC

brazen zodiac
clever sapphire
#

It should be hidden somewhere in tc

#

There isnt a recommended build because you lose 20% ST dmg

#

The build exists

#

I play it and whispyr likes me very much for my builds kekw

#

You probably shouldnt play it tho, there isnt enough gain in aoe where it would be worth the st loss

versed canopy
#

😦

clever sapphire
#

If you really want it

limber lion
#

If there is 19 Assa rogue parses and you want to get a orange parse or better, you need to get r1. Rank 2 is not even a 95

#

If there's 2000 hunter parses and you want to get an orange parse or better, you only need to get r20 or better.

shut owl
#

if theres 20 sin rogue parses, theres prolly about 20k hunter parses tho 😛

limber lion
#

I remember in SoD, I either got a r1 parse or a purple one. There was no orange/pink parses to be had because the pool was too small

#

Of course that all changes with time and the more people kill the bosses

normal mist
#

I'm about to roast that hunter to the ground (let's forget the fact i actually live with her and I'll sleep on the couch today)

vestal wren
#

you have less competiton tho

#

even tho not being rank 1 def. means a worse parse %tile wise

versed canopy
#

oh, you drop ER

limber lion
#

Have you not read anything I've said

#

lol

shut owl
normal mist
#

LOL

vestal wren
shut owl
#

then we check the logs and she's got 90% uptime on wings cuz folks are just falling off every 10 seconds

limber lion
#

But alright

#

All good

misty holly
#

I only started doing Mythic raid and higher keys during Shadowlands. S2/SoD was the best feeling season for this spec by far. Rest of Shadowlands was meh for us, and so far Dragonflight has been too.

limber lion
#

You're probably alone on that

clever sapphire
#

I liked sepsis/deathspike S4 the most

#

If we are doing hot takes

limber lion
#

The one season where the RNG was the highest out of any other season in the existence of Assassination Rogue, ever

clever sapphire
#

But i also didnt experience much besides that xD

limber lion
#

If you crit with frost, you did good

#

If you didn't, you did bad

#

Wouldn't call that pogchamp best feeling spec myself

vestal wren
#

assassination was still fairly popular in s2

limber lion
#

Sure was, doesn't mean it's bad even if the shard design was terrible

misty holly
#

S2 I at least would keep up with the other dps in my M+ groups. S3/S4 was Survival Huntera nd Demo doing literally double my dps. I think I was only in the group to stun and kick.

vestal wren
#

it is similar to sub in s3

#

you had a lot of rng, not sure how much worse / better it was

woeful meteor
#

Ain't no way someone calls sod sin which was a less engaging version of s3 sin most fun

limber lion
#

Lol

#

Too bad 1-3 is grouped up like that

#

But Assa was definitely not good in M+ during S2

#

Like at all

vestal wren
#

think it was played in s1

#

but don't think i would associate sin with m+ in SL

clever sapphire
#

I was there to execute scary mobs or the affix mobs in S4

#

And spread my spikes to feel good

woeful meteor
#

While Rain of Fire and Bombs dealt more dmg to your prio target good times

vestal wren
#

sv was wild in late SL

clever sapphire
#

Ssh let me cope atleast a little bit

vestal wren
#

just for S2 - 15+ :

#

subtlety/outlaw are the bigger lines

subtle tundra
#

i was like half of that 0.7%

brazen zodiac
#

lol

woeful meteor
#

and zero the other

vestal wren
#

i mean 25+ was kinda

woeful meteor
#

if he played

vestal wren
#

i am not saying it was mostly one group

#

but

#

a very small amount of players (tho people did run 30, so maybe i am worng)

limber lion
#

Wouldn't call this especially stronk

#

A HOA26

misty holly
#

multiple groups with multiple other ppl

#

wasnt behind at all

#

that did change drastically in S3

limber lion
#

8k dps?

subtle tundra
#

also seasons were very long

#

so not a lot of people pushed very very very high

vestal wren
#

sl 8 month seasons

subtle tundra
#

cause they'd get bored

#

and stop playing

#

(me)

vestal wren
#

did you play s2 a lot

subtle tundra
#

yes

vestal wren
#

nice

subtle tundra
#

but stopped like 2 months before season ended

#

so people kept pushing while i didnt

vestal wren
#

i think DF pacing is a lot better

#

hope it does not slow down

limber lion
#

Just because Assassination was in an OK spot in terms of DPS in Season 2 compared to other specs, doesn't mean that it was any better than in other seasons

#

Season 2 just didn't have too many dominant m+ figures

#

I personally wouldn't base my opinion on Assassination on how stupidly broken other specs are

gusty mirage

vestal wren
#

gearing is faster too

gusty mirage
#

we need a reverse this time though

#

bamfam & speed on rogue

spice spire
#

Ramzam :/

vestal wren
#

as much as people say gear does not matter, the gear chase is a reason to play

spice spire
#

The frost mage betrayer

gusty mirage
#

lol

vestal wren
#

the gear chase still exists if you want to "bis"

spice spire
#

Same

#

I miss streams while at work

vestal wren
#

but not chasing gear does not put you noticable behind

gusty mirage
#

chill vibes by the homie

vestal wren
#

so most ppl don't

clever sapphire
#

Ye i kinda just get high ilvl pieces and am fine with that

shut owl
#

forget gear chase; pursue meta-breaking io

vestal wren
#

there is only a very small subset of the playerbase

shut owl
#

I wish our plane hadn't been delayed nearly 20 hours for our return flight this week lol; I needed a lot of fort keys for spec io t-t

vestal wren
#

that likes to push super high

echo geyser
#

team disband so idk if i play again

limber lion
#

Good

gusty mirage
limber lion
#

No need to be sad

#

Ram is free

clever sapphire
#

I actually enjoyed keys the most where there was a seasonal affix to be interacted with and where i could change covenants depending on key (ik there were bis covenants but i felt impactfull no matter what i played)

limber lion
gusty mirage
#

but that means I spend less time talking to him

#

😦

spice spire
#

Exactly

gusty mirage
#

damn

spice spire
#

Don’t want ram to play wow if he doesn’t want to, he’s just a great lad

spice spire
#

Damn

echo geyser
#

we were gonna play great push but a player left just before trials

spice spire

#

he's kind of weird

but that's because he's british

tbf

#

it's a socket angle

#

very little from m+

#

not gonna grind out 8 20s for a 400 dps upgrade

woeful meteor
#

400 is less than a socket psure

keen spruce
#

socky about 5-600dps

#

but i'm in full sockets

#

so it's ilvl and catalyst

gusty mirage
#

GO TO WORK YOU FUCKS

vestal wren
#

nice

gusty mirage
#

I sense that a socket might be worth more than upgrading my crit/haste ring to a 447 haste/mastery ring lol

#

yep

vestal wren
#

alreay have 4 sockets

#

probably never use the 4th one

gusty mirage
#

nah nah trust

#

you will

vestal wren

ebon notch

gusty mirage
#

echo geyser
#

gusty mirage
#

ebon notch
#

woeful meteor
#

he plays with andy after they kicked canexx

ebon notch
#

#

yoink canexx then fuck it

echo geyser
#

sum like that

#

i only joined because someone left before me

#

as u know i started expac late etc

#

didnt have plans to play until they asked

echo geyser
ebon notch
#

nobody knows right?

#

at least thats what i heard

gusty mirage
vestal wren
#

maybe some internal conflict then

woeful meteor
#

idk only saw it on twitter and dont watch his stream if he talked about it there

echo geyser
#

new mushroom patch dropped so it is what it is

#

@keen spruce login

vestal wren
#

mashroom patch?

ebon notch
#

maplestory

#

wow is rams side hustle

vestal wren
#

oh, well have fun

echo geyser
#

i wanna play wow but im kinda over the phase of pugging keys

keen spruce
#

no mushroom

ebon notch
echo geyser
#

also not the best timeline when outlaw isnt juiced in keys

#

sub gets buffed in that patch right

woeful meteor
#

F
Northstar going on the Guilds that will surely not decline me list 🙂

#

ye 4%

echo geyser
#

why does everyone know about this guild

#

u aint the first one to mention it

ebon notch
#

4%

#

have you been trying to play outlaw in keys this season ram

#

sub is like miles ahead no?

echo geyser
#

at the start yes cause fun but in any sort of high keys no

solar bramble
#

curious. does potion absorbtion inhibitor take up an embellishment slot? or is it like the double food buff that doesn't count

woeful meteor
#

takes a slot

solar bramble
#

so not useful then. got it

#

would it even be useful if it cut potion cd down to 2m.

#

outside AoE

woeful meteor
#

HUH if you could pot every CD set it would be by far the best embelishment

gusty mirage
#

they could bring back pre-potting

#

just sayin

woeful meteor
#

Didn't play back then but the old pot CD System seems so giga cringe for raiding

gaunt moat
#

Only if you have to pay for the pots

gusty mirage
#

you'd always get 2 pots

#

per boss fight

#

doesn't seem too cringe

eager solstice
#

Corrupting rage flask on rashok Zscarn? 800 dps for me

gusty mirage
#

if your RL/healers are okay with it

woeful meteor
#

Sylvanas 15min fiesta same amount of pots as a HC mid tier boss that dies in 1:40 nice

gusty mirage
#

go for it

twilit python
#

if ur not dying then send it

gusty mirage
#

if you die because of it

#

then it's not really worth 800 dps

still epoch
#

anyone using irid frag over beacon>

#

?

woeful meteor
#

no

strange python
#

Changing to crit flask now sim wants me to swap all gems to mastery

gusty mirage
#

fragment is bad

woeful meteor
#

fragment bad

strange python
#

Hmm

gusty mirage
#

do not use fragment

#

unless you literally have no other option

still epoch
#

whats the justification

gusty mirage
#

it's oversimming

i se

gusty mirage

#

the class trinket is poggers tho right

gusty mirage
#

makes sense cause it'd DR your crit gems

still epoch

atleast from mythic ilvl

gusty mirage

class trinket is okay ye

#

mythic ilvl one is bis w/ bomb dispenser

woeful meteor

also the someone prepulled and you didnt pot yet get fucked hehe

this is why we hate hunters and boomkins

hollow vault
#

what have we become mrincredible

gusty mirage
#

abundance of secondaries will do that

limber lion
#

I can almost assure you that a different combo will give you more

hollow vault
#

it 200 higher than crit/mast or mast/haste

#

im not that big of a silly goose!

limber lion
#

If you're simming droptimizer with every single stat combo, does sound pretty silly goosy to me

hollow vault
#

😎 we all get there in the end...

gusty mirage
#

as a silly goose who has done that in an effort to replace annulet

#

I can confirm

#

mr. tubas is pretty goosey

woeful meteor
#

use Fuu's txt and put everything under weekly reward selection the replicate having only 1 spark B)

balmy condor
#

Or just use droptimizer like a sane person

gusty mirage
woeful meteor
#

Simming droptimizer for all stats just for diffrent bracers being better once you crafted it seems worse peeposhrug

#

I deleted all useless embelishments from it stopped raidbots from crashing aswell

balmy condor
#

Idk I just run 447 vault, haste/mast crafted, crit/mast crafted, crit/vers crafted, crit/haste crafted

#

And then I eat breakfast

#

And I come back

#

And compare

keen spruce
#

i just slap crit/mast on all of my crafted shit and adjust gems and rings accordingly shrugFreg

gusty mirage
#

one way to do it

#

don't tell me you're that guy

#

who sims "replace all"

#

every week

balmy condor
#

Shmeeps on demon shit again

keen spruce
#

no no

#

i mean yes

gusty mirage
#

I think he's up to 94% mastery now

keen spruce
#

but i don't replace gems

gusty mirage
#

he's ososhi's dream realized

shut owl
#

I just shrug and say "whats the likelihood that this .1% gain by recrafting all my shit is going to be noticable"

keen spruce
#

actually i'm down

#

to like uhhh

keen spruce
balmy condor

#

and "but will it mess up my m+ profile more than it helps my single target" when I look at my lack of haste

woeful meteor
gusty mirage
keen spruce
#

but i do run a replace all every week

#

then it always says it's like a 50dps difference

#

and i change nothing

#

i just don't select all of the gems

shut owl
#

cuz I don't forsee my guild going deep in mythic prog unless the 8 folks we recruited are masters of mechanics and some of the non-facerolling can rub off on our raid XD

gusty mirage
hollow vault
#

this was too tedious but i have confirmed my sadness

keen spruce
#

nonono i don't expect differnt

you sure sim a lot for someone who refused to use puzzlebox all of season 1

keep being you my friend

fuck the haters

i knew exactly how much i was losing leaving that box in the bank

hollow vault

just play sub so you didn't need to use puzzlebox dratnoCD

u never saw my season 1 talents tho sipCoffee

they were way more criminal than not using puzzlebox

#

does leeching poison show up as a buff on your character?

shut owl
#

niche question probably: are we maintaining CT on single target in m+ for DTB/IC? wasn't sure if tier made it more noticable than s1

cerulean nest
keen spruce
cerulean nest
#

im just looking at logs and dont see the buff anywhere

shut owl
#

you lose leeching buff sometimes when zoning into places

gusty mirage
#

every time*

keen spruce
cerulean nest
limber lion
#

Because I can tell you that you won't find Deadly/Amp on buffs either

gusty mirage
#

best way to check if they remembered to reapply poisons for leeching

#

look at their healing

cerulean nest
#

well you find those by looking at debuffs cast by friendly

#

which I do see

keen spruce
#

just look at healing PES_Think

#

for leechies

cerulean nest
#

I mean i do have leech on one piece of gear

#

but it wouldnt do that much

keen spruce
#

damn insane healing wow cool wow

cerulean nest
#

Im just making sure its not some bug lol

keen spruce
#

oh i'm not makin fun of you i was just complaining about rogue healing

spice spire
#

Green healing parse ICANT

shut owl
#

that alter time spam (I assume) making you look foolish there shmeeps

limber lion
cerulean nest
#

either way, do I just refresh poisons every time I zone in somewhere to make sure leeching didnt randomly get removed?

#

okay coo

shut owl
# balmy condor Nah

cool; saw some discussion in the TC about AP/IC build with it, and didnt know if any of it carried weight in general for dtb without zold/ap

balmy condor
#

I do it because I’m deranged

keen spruce
#

i normally wait until i notice that i'm nowhere to be found on the meters and have no energy mid pull

balmy condor
#

But you wouldn’t want to normally

keen spruce
#

then reapply them

shut owl
#

I mean... so do I... just didn't know if it was theoretically optimal or not during the post-DM buff

balmy condor
#

Yeh no

shut owl
#

my m+ boss damage been feeling really inconsistent lately, and not sure if it was just jetlag or poor cd lineup

balmy condor
#

Envenom buff good

white orchid
#

Can’t seem to get beacon or bomb to drop in runs or in vault. Only fragment drops taunting me at 447

keen spruce
#

fragment ain't that bad if you don't have the other prio trinkets

urban mantle
#

Guys. The Raidbots does change the priority of dungeon Slice sim for single and AoE when it's Tiranycal or Fortified? Cuz last week my Harlam Dice was better then Puzzle Box for Mythic plus and now is worst

gusty mirage
#

it does not

urban mantle
#

Thank you

fiery idol
#

Does Master Poisoner work for amplifying poision?

balmy condor
#

no

keen spruce
#

not even the amp poison dot?

balmy condor
#

"non-damaging"

keen spruce
#

oh

balmy condor
#

every part of amp poison is damaging

keen spruce
#

i was thinkin of fatal concoction

#

nvm

vocal oracle
#

simmed an Ominous Chromatic Essence trinket out of vault and its saying to take...not sure on which aspect though...it doesnt tell me that

keen spruce
#

it's gonna depend on who has what in your raid

#

but probably crit or mastery shrugFreg

storm forum
#

do sims default to all buffs?

#

for the essence*

vocal oracle
#

good question

keen spruce
#

there's a setting in the same section as comsumables

#

where you can pick which buff you want

vocal oracle
#

im holding out for a bomb

keen spruce

and just run it with a few different combos

gusty mirage

it does all

I’m surprised we’re not slow mode already with a patch release date and no changes

vocal oracle

whens the patch release?

#

i didn't see that memo

clever sapphire
#

Here it goes

#

11 july

vocal oracle
#

ahh, ok

#

ty

#

i have time to farm or collect sparks for new ring

clever sapphire
#

Yap

#

But tbf i dont think any channel is gonna go into slowmode

#

(Maybe outlaw, they are not all on the acceptance stage yet)

balmy condor
#

as long as people don't giga doom and spiral off each other like monkeys

#

we're vibing

clever sapphire
#

Yap, and assa channel doesnt seem to doom anymore

#

Or atleast i didnt see slow mode for a while now

spice spire
#

It never has doomed this tier, surely! Aware

clever sapphire
#

You know the reason could also be that all the assa rogues left, so even if everyone dooms there arent enough to make slowmode worth it dracthyr_kek

balmy condor
#

so they disappeared

clever sapphire
#

Im gonna hold the fort, lets see how long you can last with my cursed builds

#

(I dont have any)

balmy condor
#

I'm sure you can think of something

spice spire

#

You know the problem is, i would have to log into wow for that

balmy condor
#

hm

#

same tbh

clever sapphire
#

What if, we went sbs and mfd in dungeons monkahmm

balmy condor
#

maybe it's less that people aren't dooming, and more so that people just don't play anymore

but really the nerf is so big

you actually just replace it with anything

imo easiest way to sim it is just don't sim the ring

outside of deathmark

slap it on cd

If you played puzzlebox you could use it where you would have pressed box before

Thats how i would do it

IF I HAD ONE

what echoing blades changes

#

was there jank this week

I didn't see anything this week

also you guys ready for 10.1.5?

It hasnt felt the same since then

What if, hear me out. We take the warlock devs, and put them onto the rogues

#

Now we also get infinite dmg

Insane scaling with externals

#

And we can cry about anything to get buffed

strange python
#

I'm sorta curious about the behind the scenes with realz

#

He was super responsive and things seemed to actually get changed quickly in alpha and early beta

clever sapphire
#

And then people got toxic and he bailed, no single person can handle so much info unless its genuin nice talk

strange python
#

Curious if the broader dev team/game devs above him put the kibosh on tuning when live hit.

clever sapphire
#

If it was a smaller discord where only nice peeps like whispyr were with realz it probably would have gone better on the talking through the season part

balmy condor
#

the nicest

clever sapphire
#

But you gotta remember, his job isnt only to tune rogue, so a lot of stuff could happen

Only realz

what are your damages?

Nah that wont work

Wasnt in place to begin with

could he have foresaw people having a hissy fit over no changes?

and did he make any explicit promises?

Gives no time for feedback and iteration. Again.

clever sapphire
#

They probably just wont do anything this patch and post changes later for the patch after

strange python
#

Also when this keeps happening patch after patch people will eventually stop believing that they're in good hands/things will work out.

clever sapphire
#

Thatway there is enough time for feedback

balmy condor
#

I mean good thing this isn't the last patch of the game to ever exist

strange python

I'm fine with changes coming later. My issue is the pr team.

clever sapphire

My fate is in the hands of the TC guys and my feelcrafting

Blizzard comms have always been shit but still

clever sapphire
#

Sometimes i wonder what would happen if all the wow players were overwatch players. They killed the game for the second time, meanwhile people here are annoyed with bad comms

balmy condor
#

idk I think the worst thing is that my local jack in the box is out of curly fries

storm forum
#

i dont think you could convince most overwatch players to pay a subscription

#

so im guessing wow would insta die

#

and overwatch would make a shit ton of money

clever sapphire

Probably yep
