why're toxic thorn boots so much better than expulsion for sin?
RORO all over again man
What is the bug with irideus btw ?
Seems like a levelheaded and reasonable reaction tbh m
Because reducing haste is a lot worse for assa than sub
Mutilate isn’t taking stacks off of it properly in sims
Is it a big deal or just minor ?
Pretty big deal 18% is a bit
Imagine if you caught 18% more fish
Then I’d be having a good morning
Did you know percentages are reversible, so 0% of 18 is the same. Much easier
🤯
10.2 news tonight??????

@burnt latch Said so yesterday, surely he isnt wrong
But time is running out for his 24h prophecy
Donny is out of his element
Technically true
Pick a repeating 3-digit number, add it up, divide your number by the sum, it's always 37
I leave math for the tc’s
Frusterated about not getting invited to keys? Just quit
I get the feeling he lied

Herb would never do us like that
Pick a number between 1 and 10. Now add your age, multiply by 2, and then subtract your age again. The new number your age plus twice your original number
That's why you purple
Yes
There’s a date tag on it 
hey sinbros do u have any advive for m sark?
Sync sepsis with Deathmark going into each phase, with vanish on cooldown to extend imp gar
I found a log from you and compared. Tried the vanish and spreading imp garrote. Noticeable difference i think. Dying in phase 2 with adds, so overall doesnt look impressive though
Yeh you won’t reach happiness until deep p3 pulls when you look at boss damage and realize you’re cranking
Yeah. Im waiting for phase 3 so i can go from top 5 boss damage to top
They still dont want me to cloak glittering, but im doing it anyways
We keep dying after the first big cricle in P3
?????? Tf do they want you to cloak
Just sort of started making it consistently
With how life Do you enter p3
We need add dmg so im still playing sub till reclear
%
imagine getting 2 dm's in p3
34 pulls only 8 times in P3 last night... but we had a few call outs
Hate you
@blazing jewel did you run Stilleto on prog?
cant hate me more than i already hate my self
Imagine not rekilling sarka for the 3rd time in 2 1/2 hours
Iirc its Not worth it, because blade will come up when you go down
Imagine not being able to kill 12 sarks an hour
yeah im using basic BP/DB build atm but i know Scana likes running SS
scana is stupid tho
Hoping that once we get farther into P3 i can maybe swap back to sin
Prog yea but that’s before the better build was mainstream
makes sense

i called scana washed to hawk
Scana is the Dade county brethren
hawk then just said "can he really be washed if he wasent good to begin with"
I got the homies back
I have been relentlessly shit on by the guild for 3 days straight man

Feel like thats a rogue thing because i'm always getting picked on too
The second I had a 99 or something on sark but it was between two green parsing augs
i dont
The flame started
our wft is the one getting all the shit
Not totem man
Ours moved so he wont be back till next tier
if he even comes back
Be strong. 
ironically enough he was a rogue main before swapping ench
midway through this tier he messaged me saying he fucked up lmao
I opened his stream while I was out for mag and I just see MUTE JARROD and then 5 messages of rogue flame 
had a new trial join us today, he got a quick rundown of the rules
rule number 1
its a DH

imagine playing DH 
Not enough alt codes in the name to be a dh
Either a breath or disintegrate.. and im baffled cuz glittering is worse
I don't cloak I let the healers parse
ive got cloak assigned on the last debuff clear just before glittering surge
They didn't assign cloak anywhere. They just suggested not using it on glittering because they think we're all safe there.
tbf if you cloak the disint clear right before you are definitely safe for glittering
p1 damage isn't even that high right now so you're probably just safe everywhere no cloak needed
Yeah plus feint. Everything is pretty safe

is your pfp zed99?
no
His pfp is my cat
nice cat
Thanks
can racoons be cats?
Same thing

cat with a bandana
Does our mastery affect the bleed on Deathmark?
yep
Sweet
yeh
God, I miss vendetta
Why
too bad they didn't make it slightly weaker and added it in as like, a talent choice
Because it was a cool ability
just, not really CD level
dm is cool though
on rashok this week the actual deathmark bleed itself barely beat out my echoing reprimand
It was just a damage amp 
Thats depressing, honestly
Yeah, but make it into like, its own ability again, and put it somewhere in the talent tree
with a smaller cd and weaker strength
would be kinda cool.
How is 30% more damage cooler than deathmark
Wait, aren't we getting a rework?
no no, I'm not really saying it IS though, I just kinda miss it
my DM bleed was 140k more than my ER 
cause deathmark doesn't give that SWEET SWEET burst damage anymore
huh
Well,
What
aren't you just describing shiv
i mean it def does
Touche.
It gives more?
no no, not what I mean LMAO
I suck at explaining myself
I feel like it should have been a shorter mini cd like so many classes have these days, instead of our main CD
KB
i just want it to be comparable to dtb atleast
what about dtb feels nice, it has 0 impact?
feel like dtb shoulda been the aoe talent
lmao
lmao, you're welcome :p
Wait
Do you want vendetta
Or the 4p from sofo?
lol
Cuz vendetta 1000% provided zero burst damage profile flat as the earth ong
Maybe the tiniest hill known to man
hey quick question please is this talent ever worth picking ? like lets say i cast a garrote from stealth is it empowered for the duration of its effect or nah ? i saw some high rated player taking it in pvp and dont know why xd
DM is probably the best thing they have done to assa this expansion
DM is my precious
Lol
I believe in Realz
DM cranks
DM is fucking awesome though

^ i think its one of the most fitting assa abilities dude
I can't remember what the SoFo tier set did
Its empowered for the entire effect yes
DM is a cranker fr
are we actually asking for more buttons?
daamn that slaps !
you can easily tell when its pressed
not sure about pvp but it's like +100 dps to take is in pve, you'd have to drop sprint cd and stuff
dm in aoe feels so wack
okkay thank you !

Yep
then again so did vendetta
kb is the only extra button i need 
What did SoFo tier set do again?
Oh YEAHHHHHHHHHH
exsang removal on the cards prayge
most miserable tierset ive played with
I'm glad its not being used right now
Reworked for sure
Nah ur wild for that one king
Sub tier was 💀
into something unrecognizable sure
I STILL can't find any tier sets for that era
They said so back in januray, surely they keep their promises
That was gonna be the first tier I was gonna play rogue but I couldn’t do the tierset thing so I stayed feral
idc if it has the same name and the same icon

imo assa one just felt worse to play with
as long as it's fucking gone
I felt the opposite
I’m also a worse player and sin OTP 
Idk if it helps but the set bonus was called “grudge match”
We also used duskwalker
So the cd was getting 
2-Set - Grudge Match - Shiv causes enemies within 15 yards to take 40% increased damage from your Poisons and Bleeds for 9 seconds. Was kinda cool actually
the 4 set wasn't, as cool
2-Set - Immortal Technique - Shadowstrike has a 15% chance to grant Shadow Blades for 5 sec.
4-Set - Immortal Technique - Your finishing moves have a 3% chance per combo point to cast Shadowstrike at up to 5 enemies within 15 yards. Ahh, yeah, that thing
I remember playing sub back then and feeling pretty good when it procced, and relatively bad when it didn't
I'll let you in on a little secret, it's just arterial precision
SHIT, YOU"RE RIGHT
yeah don't tell anyone though
okay lol
At least it wasn't limited to a number of enemies though
So, in this game I play, called Warframe, theres this ability called Marked For Death, ignore the name, but what it did was make the target chosen with it replicate the damage to all enemies around it
That seems like it'd be fun to mess with
So ToTM
ToTM, uhhhh
I would rather take sub back then over sub rn too tbh
It lookin grim
better to be a gloomblade enthusiast than a lingering enthusiast
Yeah as ironic as it may be, gloomblade is a beautiful ability (same with a sectec), but the current state of sub is kinda sad
Also yeah I’m not a fan of lingering
Gloomblade was just much better thematically and gameplay wise than backstab
Anyways though no sub talk in the alchemist channel
Bring back KB
Rework exsang to a 1:30 min cd that puts a 10 sec debuff that gives you cp every time a bleed ticks 
IC is getting nerfed most likely
wait really? damn
I mean if they add talents and things for assassination's aoe as we expect they will, then it stands to reason that IC is getting nerfed to make room for it
nerfed cause assa is dominating the m+ scene rn
no, I don't mean that
or else I would've said that
poison bomb and crimson tempest do a large part of our damage, IC is just an engine to get there quicker and give some damage on top
Hmm, thats true
I keep thinking CT still isn't all that good and we just use it for the dot lol
Really gotta stop that honestly.
who knows whats gonna happen with the rework, we'll see in a couple weeks I guess
but my money is that new aoe things means IC gotta get nerfed
Shiv buffs for ap stonks
Lol, true
45s cd is awful anyway, not short enough to have it up constantly and too short to feel like you have some downtime inbetween the cast
Instead it just feels like a nuisance the parts of a fight where you dont have IC dots up
yeah the 45s cd makes me wish that it just wasnt there period
Did they fix Exsang?
LOL no
The Single target sepsis build in Sin-Faq says to use exsang
nvm
same icon
wrong spell
Were you thinking of Doomblade?
dumb low $ company
black powder poison dust
Yeah I just saw them use the same icon instead of spending 5 seconds to create a new one
the next time you'll hear about exsang, it'll be gone
And it'd automatically proc a tick of your poisons on all enemies hit by it
the bug on exsang is the send off that dogshit fucking ability deserved
diseased and worthless in a ditch off the side of the road
Whats the bug again?
deathmark doesn't duplicate the exsang tick rate
yeah that's whatever
idc bout the name or the icon
Since like December
who gives a shit
Wait, since DECEMBER? good god.
so basically, its never worked properly in all the time that we DID use it?
Ahh, okay
I'm more confused about how it broke in the first place?
Background code jank idk
you would usually not expect something to suddenly break ^^
It wasn’t listed anywhere in the notes
Like not even anything related
Like a Deathmark change
Or a garrote change or something
Just woke up one day and it was dead
Yeah means I don’t have to rip my hair out every raid day in a futile attempt at keeping my sanity knowing I’d have to hit the button for 3 hours
yeah accidently fucking that button up was a serious hit to my mental
Truth
Pretty sure there’s a clip of me floating around where I dm->exsang instead of exsang->dm on diurna and just let out a primal scream
6 years of tyranny from exsang end soon
on open mic?
oh ive definitely done that one dude
PLEASE tell me it was open mic
I’m open mic on stream push to talk for discord
Idk if it’s still around
I’ll have to see
Diurna into raz into required to play sub on raz
Was just a non stop mental breakdown
nerfed? as in cd goes up? or damage goes down? cuz one is good other one is sus
what the orb say
Yeah idk it told me that it doesn’t know either
damn not even the orb knows
Could even hit less targets
Could hit... different targets?

Like a trillion things they could do with it
okay if it were to hit that target, and the idea was to promote AP, then its interesting, as long as its st doesnt become similar to IC/AP right now.
it would be very interesting to have a rogue spec that does very powerful 3-5 target cleave or somethign
but if was htiting fewer targets just to give u enough regen for u to go back to spamming CT
then its cursed
Cries in outlaw
Ye maybe if you had an ability that made your singletarget spells apply to 5 nearby targets for 40% of the damage
that sounds interesting eleem
care to elaborate?
it would be cool if it had something to do with a blade
and a fl;urry of attacks
If they make assa capped at 5 instead of 8, it’s easier to tune the cleave up
Cause it’s not supposed to do big aoe, it’s made for cleave
So the single target and cleave would be higher as well
In theory at least
but then I'd have to get a new sub alert
"outlaw is capped omegalul stay mad nerds" wouldn't hit right
Mofos better give me uncapped BF if they do that
You're just filled with hatred

theory can only take u so far. 
it's a clip of whispyr saying it
foor i have become death
the padder of sark ads
I just assume all Sin players are filled with hate tbh

I'm confused by that statment.
Thats what I still do when I play rogue
You changed
I miss the dog pfp lanille.
He was a wholesome lad
Disc has changed Blud
man
does anyone remember
when i wan an anime pfp lad?
everyone only remembers me after i put on the (dog) mask
good times 🥲
Now I’m top 2 on the server for assa instead of 3
the guy server transferred?
what server
just a friendly reminder that this week is indeed pusssshs week https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7G-spy2vtqg&pp=ygUNZ3JvbW5hayBjbGlwcw%3D%3D&ab_channel=WorldofWarcraftHuskyBoost

Whisperwind NA, and I just wanna note this is just for io
oh yeah my rogue is
in the dumpster this tier
shadow was just doing everything i wanted my rogue to do
dang you can take #1 ez
also im going to believe you're there cause it has whisper in the name
isn't it bolstering?
!affix
Affixes: Tyrannical, Afflicted, Bolstering

every week is push week if you believe
tru
I could if my friends who are good at keys hadn’t stopped playing and my guildies were a bit better/less casual
whats whats bolstering gonna do against that strong sub rogue funnel? 
so i think this week is pretty ok for pushing
We get aotc raiding 3 hours a week and then the guild is empty
bolstering is also like, giga carried by disc cause they just PS the tank for the last 10 seconds of the big pulls and its like bolstering never happened
so, we went to a 28 freehold wednesday night bolstered the first officer or w/e to like 9 stacks, then he autod our tank for 3 mil and killed him, then yelled and everyone died. but we timed the 27
so.... yea its push weeek
i think thats the only mob that really sucks. it hurts on like reg tyran weeks half the time
it was funny af actually. like we were just laughin and talking and didnt realize how badly we fucked up until he was about to cast.
i think caster packs are the worst with bolstering
then he yelled, and me being an ethical gamer, I feinted. wasnt enough soemhow 
cause people arent expecting to get 1 shot
when it normally does like 20% of their hp
yo you can only do vault of archavon if you control WG right?
srs assassination question fr fr
what the hell is a vault of archavon or a WG?
There’s a way to glitch inside
is that part of the new 10.2 changes?
pog
Yee it’s on YouTube

it's a pvp thing from wrath
I didnt get boots im going to riot 
unluck
I joined here in prepatch of sl.
You had the same pfp the entire time iirc.
I was a lurker but really just read pins I’m sorry
wow they just give green to anyone then huh?
wtf I wanna be a lettuce boi too

I just returned after a long break
class fantasy

they give anyone orange
smh my head
smh my head
Smdh my head brother
Shien only joined this year @gusty mirage
This server is madness
The great banana incident
They must hate you


same
i used to have a yumekui merry pfp but no one took me seriously so i changed it to dogs are good and suddenly people pretended they liked me or something
:>

healing changes a man

healers are alcoholics "I need to drink" all they say
dude i am so happy to be out of that los bullshit
Reminds me of the removed dwarf joke
It’s mega free
"I'm a social drinker! When someone says 'I'll have a drink', I say 'So shall I!"
Also no real path to green. I just got messaged one day and asked if I wanted to be one and just said “if you think so, but I disagree.” And here I am
what if i wait for ptr to decide if i play priest or rogue
if the raid has 1 or more los mechanics i play rogue
“If I have to move one time while healing I’m going back to rogue”
cap
Stop crumbling my narrative
fuck that
Wtf
like 60% of disc casts are instant or channelable while moving
and holy has like 50%
Well 99% of rogue casts are instant, 1% of it is beacon.
and all of their important casts are instant
im a big fan of the pre-pull bacon -> vanish tech
so its even less than 1%

man can you imagine the horror of KB or sepsis being a channeled ability
Lil bro ain’t cooking fr
If realz sees this idea we're all screwed
Channeling sepsis for 4s like it's KS but instead you just feel worse
I have full faith in Realz. Also think he has his own ideas for the rework unsure he’s scouring the discord looking for sauce
just based on the shit I read in here I know for sure he's not crowdsourcing any ideas
My man is sleeping on @bronze pike frfr
Do not come up with a new idea I will delete it
I am not but I wish I was sleeping when he talks

The ideas floating around these chats make me feel like whenever a rogue applies rupture, they've actually applied it to their own neurons.
Destroying our own braincells fr
mod abuse
rooooooooooooooood
saving my ammo when people flood this chat when c hanges happen

ya know
when it gets so degen and people make up bad takes and gthink its actually good
i just come in and hit em with a banger and make em feelsheepish
what if there was a new resource bar instead of energy, like a poison meter
and every time you attacked, your poison meter ran down
cause the poison on your daggers was wearing off
can it fill up instead and give free poison bomb when full
so you would have to channel a poison to refill it every now and then
but like legion PB
ty ty
That sounds pog
it took all 1/3rd of my braincells to come up with that one
no no no
you channel your poison BUT you hp gets drained to regenerate said poison
its skill expression
where you as a player need to find the right time to do it or you'll fall over
And there's a talent that instead makes it a dot that applies after the poison is recovered
So it's like stagger instead of flat damage for regen
Also the channel is 6s for full poison regen
How do you use that many brain cells at the same time? I’m jealous
just built differently
Meanwhile we're trying to turn the idea into a monstrosity
That’d solve the haste issue
no
and if they say they do
they're lying to themselves
and you
Whenever I log in on rogue, my braincells go on vacation
i had a few left but whispyr stole them
me blasting on my mage, not having to move on mechanics
rogue waiting for beacon crit
definition of insanity
writing pins over and over again
knowing that most people will just ask anyway
^
What spec do you think he would write guides for??
outlaw
arms warrior
i feel like sisyphus was a shaman or druid player
or would have been?
they probably have wow in hell right?
Sisyphus was an @sshole.He married his brother's daughter named Tyrw and had 2 sons with her.Tyrw killed her sons and Zeus tried to kill him twice but he deceived him.Zeus punished him to carry a rock to the top of a mountain over and over again(actual mythology)
Definitely a druid player
totally
He carries a rock to the top, then flaps down to start all over again
Yeah but half of all the conflicts in Greek mythology could have been avoided if Zeus just kept it in his pants
The horny bastard
True but he envied his brother Salmineas for being the king of Efyria(ancient Corinth) which he established according to mythology.Went to ask for advice how to kill him,thats when he married Tyrw.. The dude was a criminal
Zeus was an abusive bastard 100%
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
What's the general consensus for sim patchwerk numbers in comparison to personal training dummy numbers? I'm looking at a 5min patchwerk minus raid buffs at 107k simmed but 95k reality. Is that a tad bit low?
Why not just sim target dummy?
Fair. Doing that. Forgot about that bit
Okay. Simmed 92, reality 95
what's the difference between target dummy and patchwerk then?
raidbuffs / consumables
@balmy condor what's the logic behind no more double garrote opener? is it just sepsis giving an extra garotte or has something shifted the value of shs garotte vs mut?
or was it all about exsang before
/ old tier set bleed dmg
Dummy stays at 100%, and disables raid buffs and consumables, patchwerk has consumables and raid buffs by default, with the health going 100->0
Double gar was an exsang thing for max garrote time to prep for exsang
No exsang no double gar
Ah, got it. But if you just remove all of the raidbuffs manually then I guess it's similar just without execute phase
Yeah if you turn everything off you would essentially have a target dummy that goes from 100% hp to 0% like a normal fight would
That was the issue I guess. I did that and the sim went to 107 versus 95 reality
pure target dummy at a 92
They do, but they also heal back I think 5% of their health every 2 seconds
Not entirely sure on the healing mechanics of a target dummy tbh I’ve never cared enough
But point is unless you got like 4-5 people hitting that shit the health won’t move
Execute good 
For sin?
tbh a better metric than damage is casts / uptimes and cp + energy waste minimisation, log your dummy hitting and compare to a sim
One of the best execute specs in the game yeh
Hm?
No
shit
Good execute doesn’t mean good haste scaling during execute
:P
If pi was 20% damage increase instead of 20% haste

Then yeah probably would be a good option to send it on the sin rogue
But it isn’t
So
Shit out of luck on that
So sins just not generally a good target for pis
dev / mm are both prime targets after lock and uh
Its fine, but its not unholy or demo
Demo and unholy are huge for it
Hey. If I'm outdamaging my locks and my DKs on Magmorax I think I deserve it.
that's not exactly how it works
No I just need new locks
but perhaps
Are you doing twice the demo locks damage?
yknow uh without pi is one of the weakest st sims
More along the lines of 20-30
Cause demo lock with pi is like nearing +15k
When sin is like maybe 7
You’d gotta be outcranking that warlock real hard
spriest sends on cd at 2 min healer can hold for 3
Spriest uses their pi rotationally yeah
Yep
That's a conversation point
But the 2 minute on cooldown option is the unholy dk
Is it?
So you kinda still get fucked over
They have cdr
yes
unholy is 3 tho no?
Idk then
yeah uh is 3 im pretty sure
I thought my unholy was getting spriest pi
We have 3 priests in my raid fuck me if I know who’s doing what
Think affliction is on 2 as well
Ye
But they changed aff like 15 times
I thought aff was 90 sec not sure actually
Yeah it’s a weird one where it’s like really good but no one plays it
Affli is not a meme, but most still play demo
Ret?
idk if its aug bug but aff is deleteing sark right now
Post rework rets 2 min pretty sure
Well 1 min is 2 min
so potential PI target as well
I'm just going down the list
for spriest
since we have both healers and dps priest
I’ve never seen an ele shaman in my life don’t ask me anything
I've had one in raid. He was cracked 99s on ele and 99s on resto on prog
Barely can see an enhance shaman these days
Funnily enough, got that guy as well
Enhance also is an aoe pad spec atm
I don’t see enhance on the meter and then adds spawn and they leapfrog me instantly
It's like beacon as sub. Parse good or bad based on beacon crits
yeah, that's also true. Take enh for assault I guess
and then bench
x)
u should watch stealthis enhance on their 5:51 sark kill
it was 4 augs but enhance did i think 330k p1 sark
Respectfully I don’t care really care what stealthi’s guild does
Because all their shit is so ridiculous
Stealthi links me like a fucking 2:25 kazzara kill when my guild on our 9th kill is doing it in 3:40
And I actually want to kill myself
ingame
theyve mastered the 4 aug tech tbh
its litealrly breaking the game
unironically breaking the game
agreed, i played aug for sark prog, we had 4 too
going from aug to dev for a few pulls lost us like 2-3% boss hp
instead of 65/64% at end of p1 it was 68 lmao
i mean they might get a 5:10 - 5:15 sark kill next reset
Shit is actually so dumb
out of aug prison now though, thank god
I’m lowkey sick of it at this point
pretty sure once tha thappens they need to look into aug one more time
Stealthi’s like yeah skipping second adds on sark
its far too broken even when played like a clown
Why not just kill it in p1
Fuck it
Just split the raid in half and kill 2 bosses at the same time
Why not
theyre gonna get to p3 at 2:50.
ah yes the true sec tech
snap rashok onto sark
for some cleave
it's actually wild
blizz intended for aug to be competitive with other dps
making it sound like it would struggle
xd
I absolutely hate aug with a passion. Less so for raids but more so what they did to m+
in raid it's still broken, what reasoning is there to ever bring dev
It’s like watching a flock of birds pass by, the only thing you can do is look up and squint a little and go “yeah those are birds alright”
My guilds not bad
litterall can buff the best class for any particular part of a fight
I was sat for 2 weeks in m+ queue without a single key in the 26 range.
We were contemplating hall of fame this tier
Killed zskarn with cheese
Pretty early, fast group
Seeing the shit stealthi’s guild does is just so unreal
its kinda inspiring to me tbh.
but also makes me sad cuz I cant do anything like that anytime soon
colour are renowned for speedkills though
they are
summoning in the entire raid for aug buffs is giga cringe
LOL
to me its inspring but just depressing
cuz i wanna do stuff like that
and then i look at my guild and we cant get to sark p3 without 4 people dying to not ocmign up in time every pull to greed haste buff 
it is extremly cringy how it works yeah like look at this.. to summon half the raid and have everyone pixel stack and the 4 augs to go around the locks and enahnces...
It went from like cut healers, can we one tank, everyone play well and we skip the mechanic
To “is it possible to abuse Aug here?”
And that’s just
Not exciting or fun
It’s just degenerate
well it kinda is the same. it wetn from can we cut a healer to yeah ofcourse, just drop healers for augs, they make u tanky anyways fuck it full send 2 heal it
Yeah but that’s not the main thing anymore
The main thing is fuck it augvoker time
And cutting healers is just an excuse for +80k dps running another dps
Im just worried about whats gonna happen next tier with aug in RWF. theyre probably gonna bring 4 augs and then you get half the populataion try to pug and then you see people want 4 augs for their heroic clear
similar to how now people require aug for 11s
it kinda just ruined the game
RWF atm will be the same degenerate Aug abuse but less setup beforehand
Like they won’t be summoning the whole raid every pull
all our 4 augs agreed
the spec is cringe
the amount of rng involved is so gross if you dont sum people in
But you’re for sure gonna see positioning nonsense and Aug stacking and all the usual degeneracy
On pull at the minimum
And the problem is if they can pull it off, the damage increase you get from it is so insane, the fights would have to be buffed, but then it would be ridiculously hard for the normal guilds
It’s such a mess
its a really really bad hole they put themselves into
if the spec is good it ruins a lot of the game
and the fact that its bear levels of simplicity makes it worse
Problem is, the spec isn’t good right now
my issue is right now, we are pugging augs for 28-29s
and i swear the god
thee guys coudlnt time 20s sometimes if they werent aug
they are dying to everything, they dont kick, they dont cc, they do nothing but die.
If you look at heroic logs Aug fucking blows from a dps perspective
They’re still really tanky and have a ton of utility
But just dps wise Aug is giga shit outside of mythic
I cant trust io anymore, i dont even wanna push anymore because every key is a coin flip of ah yes this 3500 aug has hands vs ah yes its a monkey that accidentally made an aug
its kinda haard to judge aug in those cases i think, like if u play with a bad group, youre not parsing.
but if you look at mythic, then augs suddenly the best spec pretty much
Doesn’t matter though
Getting 1 Mythic kill is like already the top 3% or something
Heroic is where the vast majority of the playerbase lives
bro 300 messages what are you guys cooking
Complaining about stealthi and augs
hmm, well the that circles back to what max initially said about it, if its good for average people, it breaks top gameplay, if its average for top gameplay its unplayable for average players
his augs are cute though
Yes, and right now it’s both 
Cause Aug is like fine for the average mythic CE guild
Not too broken but like, generally good
For big abusers like stealthi it’s insane
And for anyone worse than a decently good mythic guild, Aug is pretty disappointing
basically the worst case scenario lol
idk, coudlnt find a solution. im also pretty sure its actually not solvable in M+
they need to rein in the top end while buffing baseline performance
aug is the most binary class imaginable for keys
if it brings enough damgea u 100% bring it
if it doesnt bring enough damage u 100% dont bring it
one easy way they can narrow the skill ceiling and floor is by making prescience longterm buff on 2 people
Unless there’s a big change in how Augs works and they re-think how buff targeting functions
It’s just not happening
and nerf EM / fate mirror more
so based on tuning its basically 100% brought to every comp or never brought. such a terrible position to be in.
issue is they've balanced it as if you're pressing all spells off cd without planning around stuff
the moment you begin optimising presience targets, planning ebon might right on 3m as the UH dk comes up from bombs
the spec breaks
i mean that cant work though. becuase then your spec is litearlly 1 apm
Nerfing it isn’t the answer either btw
u just buff 2 people and go take a nap
LF / eruption filler still exists
Maybe make it super complex instead of it’s current zzzz state
I mean the “easy” option is buff the fuck out of augs personal dps and nerf the buffs into a ground so it’s like a bad dps with extra support, rather than tank dps with another dps worth of damage in support
But that’s the nuclear option
and they could add another instant spell that you press on cd but without such big margins for error / success as pres currently is
Aug has multiple issues someone which can be fixed by changing hooks and what it effects
For example aug should have never effected tanks
thats basically admitting that support role doenst work, and basically turning aug into a dps with extra utility then
Exactly
But that fixes one main issue
which i dont think theyre ready to give up on it yet
thing is as it stands it's either a very good dps with far too much utility
or a support with more damage than most dps
the fact that dev is comparatively a meme doesn't help
The other big issue that no one talks about is how auggie is the only support spec, uses a dps spot, was released hamfisted in the middle of a season
They should have just gave Hpal blessings to Aug and leave it at that lol.
in what world does a spec that needs pi to do less damage than aug, lacks perma mini-rally, cheat death with aoe healing going to see play
Auggie should have released next expansion with more support specs and a support role
all im saying is, my friend leveld an aug, got it to 438 ilvl in like 2 days. brought it to a 26 freehold with us. when we looked at details he did 165k overall
heck, dev dmg is fake at times too due to reverse execute
playing the spec for qiute litearlly 2 days
Augmentation is the simp specc,let it be xD
With content balanced about 6 people
not details i mean wclogs
Imagine
aug being supportive is fine, the tuning on it atm is not
least hot take ever, get rid of pi
thats wrong in so many ways
like who tf enjoys it, even the people getting it don't enjoy it
disco is the ''pvp'' side of priest
since if they ever lose it it's like heroin addicts suffering withdrawal
just as sub is for rogue
Eh I don’t think any class has a pvp side anymore
true
Disc is cracked In pve more than anything
Like a good disc is unironically cracked
Idk if this is the option either, it would just have the same issues but now you’re doing it alongside a billion other meta shifts, and you have 3 Aug specs all causing the same issues. I feel like that would take the kitchen fire we have now and just multiply it into a whole ass wildfire. If you release like that you’re actually just too deep in the hole and nothing will get you out
oh and it just ruins logs for people, like having aug vs not having aug actually changes your damage. idc how much they say their hooks are accurate to take aug damage, how do u account for extra CP from extra crit that aug gives u? the extra finishers, extra dances , extra energy that comes off of that crit? youre not acconting for those, and overall, it matters
It just people don’t know how to play it at a level
holy is better in pvp now as well
pres evo fills the niche that disc had
Cause hptiwst is easier
yeah
symbol is too good regarding holy
giving raid defensive cd usage is cracked, reason they brought holy to wf iirc
that would kidna solve the M+ problem not raid. because then M+ would become tank,healer, 2dps, 1 support then u had choices for support specs and build comps around different support specs.
That’s true, I just think anything is a more realistic answer than “turn auggie into a true dps spec”
instead of right now with aug wher eu want a class that has 2 min cds for aug to bring
would not solve the raid abuse problem tho
Hpal def is bloated utility wise
holy goes like PW Salvation==>summon naaru and pukes the F out of healing
yknow, thematically aug feels super lame
Yep
if you guys ever tried thinking of black dragonflight magic you thought of throwing rock spikes and shit
While disc can surpass hpriest
It requires a lot more mastery of the spec AND dungeon knowledge
i think disco is more sophisticated in dungeons
coz its 5 ppl that can control and prevent dmg
You play with a actual good disc priest you wonder if they even did anything
Oh def
Utility wise anyways
That’s why the only thing hpal mains complain about with recent nerfs is the damage output
Who needs healing when you can have one glimmer active on a guy and they get max glimmer dr and glimmer absorb shield
u want blessings,fine
u want healing,fine
u want burst healing,fine
u wanna be tanky,fine
u want immunity,fine
u want dmg,fine
😄
Exactly
The amount of things made irrelevant with bop, freedom, sac,
Not to mention mage is best target for all externals
yup
Autumn doing a lot
And spring is fucking a deathknights vampire aura but as a external
idk man,i rly think that aug is special tbh
Summer does dam ohhhh big wow, let’s forget about spring which can make a tank immortal
