ye

oak tangle
#

yes but make sure one of them has spatter on them, and envenom that

static hedge
#

so if crimson tempest debuff is on them, and one has spatter, then basically fok and envenom and repeat

#

right?

oak tangle
#

pre much

static hedge
#

tyty

hexed willow
static hedge
#

yeah lol

hexed willow
#

Just making sure! Folks don’t always value how important it is

static hedge
#

makes sense

oak tangle
#

if theres one thing i suck at it's maximising garottes

oak lagoon
#

question

true flame
#

Any reason not to just macro ambush and mutilate into the same button?

strange python
oak lagoon
#

on first boss and / council

#

do you ST with splatter

#

?

strange python
#

One is a stealth ability, one is non-stealth. Blindside switches Mut to Ambush automatically.

oak lagoon
#

or you go m+ kind of build

elder torrent
#

St splatter

oak lagoon
#

oki

true flame
#

So no reason to even put ambush on my bars?

strange python
#

Right where Mutilate is on my regular non-stealth bar

true flame

Thanks!

do you need to do the anniv questline for kazzak or can you just join a group and kill him?

#

but we keep going in the prision, even tho its a 200dps gain

earnest remnant
#

ive done 12 runs and ive got 5

restive falcon
#

youre a chad tho

#

unironically

glass fulcrum
#

#

whats the trick to this 4 set

restive falcon
#

do your rotation

split veldt
#

then how do other rogues have more 4pc damage than me

proper tapir
#

Maybe also your rotation.....

lucid rain
#

better gear? better rotation?

#

higher uptime on boss?

Another everbloom shoulders in the bags

haughty flicker
#

ive stopped doing everbloom this week

#

i'll get my hero track branch next week lmao

#

bursting too cursed

slim hamlet
#

This is such a bad pug dungeon on tyran

#

holy

rugged wadi
#

That branch is so hard to manage in raid

#

it's like adding a mechanic on top of other mechanics

slim hamlet
#

But as long as it is 14 FUCKING THOUSAND MORE DPS

rugged wadi
#

That's sim

#

Computer againts dummy

slim hamlet
#

I usually don't find this kind of stuff hard

#

But we will see when I get it

gusty mirage
#

no it has to go on a LWing item

odd flax
#

in which cases I use the arterial precision over DTB on m+? still got only 2p

#

Sims show that playing the branch completely wrong

oak tangle
#

i took a break from glakrond prison, to smash out a random DHT, #worth

balmy condor
#

Is still best trinket

oak tangle
slim hamlet
#

after 13 runs u are unlucky to not have gotten branch right

#

so how unlucky is 30 runs

hexed willow
balmy condor
slim hamlet
#

I thought it would be at least like 1.5%

balmy condor
#

Trinket is crazy

drifting cloud
slim hamlet
#

So how about kiting it all the way until right before they go away

balmy condor
#

It’s not even difficult to play around

slim hamlet
balmy condor
#

If you move like

slim hamlet
#

Worst possible use

balmy condor
#

4 inches to the left

#

The orbs hit you at the right time anyway

slim hamlet
#

sorry can you do that in non-freedom units?

oak tangle
#

this is just the advanced strat

balmy condor
#

Like if you actually complain about branch

#

Shut up and don’t be a shitter

#

Idk

balmy condor
#

Shit is free as hell

#

Get good

slim hamlet
#

I am getting declined for 17 everblooms at 4 am at 472 ilvl, 4pc, ++20EB done

balmy condor
oak tangle
slim hamlet
#

But that makes no sense

#

Just because I have the loot pool for the trinket doesn't mean they have lower drop chance

oak tangle
#

yeah but they want some shitter who doesn't want it to drop it and trade them

slim hamlet
oak tangle
#

i don't bother queuing for any falls with a rogue in the group

hexed willow
#

So @slim hamlet even if you’re an idiot, it’s a 13000 dps increase

olive veldt
#

How normal is it to run out of all thistle tea charges and be waiting on cd's doing almost nothing, in a single target m+ boss while in aoe spec.

slim hamlet
hexed willow
olive veldt
#

am I just bad at managing my energy... keeps happening to me

oak tangle
hexed willow
#

So I’d rather have a rogue in my group and hope they’re going for the trinket

slim hamlet
#

Blindside AP build pepe_chad

balmy condor

Spec is slow

#

It’s just like that

#

You gotta pool

lucid rain
slim hamlet
#

Only problem I have had so far is 3rd boss

#

and having to explain zerg strat for 2nd boss 10 times a day

lucid rain
#

I'm going to ask you very politely

slim hamlet
#

That alone is rough enough

lucid rain
#

to do it an 11th time for me

slim hamlet
lucid rain
slim hamlet
#

I legit look like that

#

right now

lucid rain
#

LOL

slim hamlet
#

Zerg strat is just to absolutely omega nuke right add

#

and just interrupt revitalise

lucid rain
#

oh okay nothing whacky

slim hamlet
#

But you would be suprised how confuisng that is for pugs

lucid rain
#

lol

#

it's too bad the initial heal on revitalize is kinda big

#

could just purge it otherwise

sick abyss
#

where is that from?

sick abyss
slim hamlet
lucid rain

where is kazzak anyway?

slim hamlet

#

But i got donkey kong 437 ilvl neck right now

vale lantern

slim hamlet

#

for me

sick abyss
#

slim hamlet
#

gusty mirage

sick abyss
#

kk ty so much

slim hamlet
#

How come when we kill council

#

They don't die

#

they go "unconscious"

#

Like instead of dead it says unconscious

#

any lore nerds?

gusty mirage
slim hamlet
#

I want to go unconscious too then

gusty mirage
#

fair

#

but tldr lore

#

they're just the guards of the tree

#

and attack anyone for any reason

#

so we don't kill them

slim hamlet
#

So they attack the dudes that are defending the place but not the dudes destroying the place

#

it is legit burning in the other hallway and they just chilling making our life hard

gusty mirage
#

there's flavor text from green dragon lady

#

that explains it

#

but you understandably didn't read it because who actually does

slim hamlet
#

idek who green dragon lady is

#

minethra

#

or something maybe

gusty mirage
#

the one that lets us dragon ride in the fire vajayjay to fight fyrakk

!stealth

#

hm

slim hamlet
#

lol

slim hamlet
#

gusty mirage
#

what was the command

slim hamlet
#

!stealthbreak

prisma monolithBOT
#

Stealth can break from:

  • evoker leggo buff (Unbound Surge) dropping
  • Essence trinket on buff gain
  • Voice of the Silent Star (Sark cape)
  • some mistweaver thing related to their statue
slim hamlet
#

slim hamlet

#

!stealth

prisma monolithBOT

Stealth can break from:

  • evoker leggo buff (Unbound Surge) dropping
  • Essence trinket on buff gain
  • Voice of the Silent Star (Sark cape)

Best way to learn the right answer online is to say something wrong.

slim hamlet
#

the earth is round

gusty mirage
#

I'm a big fan of the fact that we keep adding commands, and no one knows to type !help to see them

oak tangle

the earth isn't round

in m+, do you keep up crimson tempest on ST like bosses?

slim hamlet
#

it's an oval

lucid rain
#

I'm just having a laugh dw

#

I really don't care

oak tangle
#

oval is 2d though

fast phoenix
#

When fighting 5+ mobs, after the burst is over, should I try to maintain all dots on all of the mobs or just focus on one target with caustic spatter?

slim hamlet
#

Can be 3d too

#

the name is not restricting it to 2d

slow needle
slim hamlet
#

does it?

#

oh apparently a 3d oval is an ovoid

#

fucking nerd names

slow needle
#

Ye, shapes get super specific names.

slim hamlet
#

I have never not just used the 2d name for 3d objects

#

nor ever heard anyone use them

#

besides sphere I suppose

slow needle
#

Not even cube?

lucid rain
#

cone?

#

cylinder?

slow needle

Pyramid.

slim hamlet

ALright I take it back

legit why

#

why is it not consistant in any way

torn atlas
#

Do we just send Ashes every deathmark, or a bit later due to the way it degrades?

balmy condor
#

I have collected screenshots for the next time someone asks if branch bad please ping me if it happens

Double on use sucks

Because double use

lucid rain
#

your silence buddy just looking at you like wtf

slim hamlet
#

That's more or less the only fight where I wish I had acrobatic strikes

torn atlas
#

There's some mobs, think maybe mini dragon in doti that have weirdly small hit boxes which mess with me for melee range.

slim hamlet
#

Yea they are annoying, standing right in the middle of them but IC doesn't hit

#

But acro doesn't work with IC anyways

torn atlas
#

Otherwise I haven't had as much trouble as I thought I would have without it.

I would love it if they just had gear vendors.

#

Let me slam M+ for like a week on a pre-geared char in S3. Try the broken shit I didn't have time to at the time.

But I dunno, not into any more than that.

Going to make a whole dime this week

And there's only like 2 pure ST bosses in the raid

#

And I trust my healers to give me the juice

haughty flicker
#

i wasted the free wyrm craft so i just recrafted toxic patch to 463

#

too many actual useful things to spend crests on this week

lucid silo
#

i have CSB, counterweight, mirror, and bandolier. but still no branch or hourglass

storm forum
#

Mirror and bandolier probably crank in m+ at least

lucid silo

yea but 2 on use feels kinda bleh

If I craft BSL, do cloak for damage?

having a hard time keeping dots up plus chaing envenom

balmy condor

Good, it should be hard

That’s the gameplay

Why is it wrong

balmy condor

Because it’s a dogshit addon

It doesn’t play properly

Well shit. Rip belt or bracers then probably

Whispr then what do you suggest for a noob that just started assass

hexed willow
#

Sin is very much a practice makes perfect spec

bleak eagle

hexed willow

And learning the why to u do things makes it really smooth

magic sapphire
#

Wowhead guides are basically hekili on paper

haughty flicker
#

yeah fuck guides

#

guides are for fucking losers

hexed willow
#

Like quick you have 6s left on improved garrote, 2s left on rupture, and you have 1s on subterfuge. What do you press?

jade iron
#

sir i didnt study for a test

hexed willow
#

But Jordan what would you do

jade iron
#

garrote probably

#

might depend on cp? in reality id panic

charred mango
#

Rupture if you have cp?

jade iron
#

id definitely garrote

hexed willow
#

always garrote. pandemic and subterfuge gives it big damage

bleak eagle
#

its garrote

hexed willow
#

But its concepts like that of understanding your tree is how you adapt

charred mango
#

Do we care about overwriting an improved garrote?

hexed willow
#

Cause there’s so many plates spinning and helkili can only do so much

hexed willow
#

But you only want to do that with another imp garrote, since the time gets added but not the damage

bleak eagle
#

with an improved garrote only

charred mango
#

I was thinking the new garrote would be non improved but I guess that’s not the case

bleak eagle
#

subterfuge gives it

hexed willow
#

Yup as long as it’s from stealth/subterfuge, it’s improved

#

It’s actually fun to do a imp garrote from a normal garrote

#

Because then you have a pandemic’d imp garrote

bleak eagle
#

i actually have a question if u want to do a quick opener can i double garrote not pandemic window or is that trollign just do 1

our second go around with dm doesnt have an improved garrote on press right?

storm forum
#

Then feel craft it out

#

Sometimes you feel like you can NS rup without dropping env, sometimes you can't idk

hexed willow
#

You should have an improved garrote every KB

slate crown
bleak eagle
#

yea

#

its a second late tho

#

right

slate crown
#

It is after you have danced, correct

#

This is fine

bleak eagle
#

ok

hexed willow
#

and I’m pretty sure it’s still a dps gain to imp garrote over your opener garrote (non pandemic)

bleak eagle
#

ok

hexed willow
#

But not sure gonna have to test

#

Yeah no I meant delaying it to the 2nd or 3rd gcd

#

Instead of the 1st

slate crown
#

doesn't matter

hexed willow
#

Damn

slate crown
#

we garrote during the vanish anyways

#

like it'll get extended as much as possible regardless

solid void
#

One thing I don't fully understand about the aoe rotation: do we swap out envenom for crimson tempest entirely after 4+ targets? Or do we still aim to keep up envenom?

hexed willow
#

Do y’all rupture in vanish?

slate crown
solid void
#

That's clear, thank you

slim pebble
#

No Nick or branch tonight 😪

slate crown
#

but otherwise I just envenom

hexed willow
#

It feels so minor 😦

#

Compared to garrote in stealth

tall jay
#

In raid - how do we do the aoe stuff or cleave? Do priority target and FoKs

oak tangle
storm forum
#

I've found that in the opener, if I don't NS rup inside DM, rup is usually right in the pandemic window during the last global of vanish window, so I press it if I notice.

tall jay
oak tangle
#

i'd argue fok is pad on nearly all cleave fights

#

but, i guess it's ok for the cp

slate crown
storm forum
#

If I think I'll generate more CP with fan than mut, I'll fan. Which is basically just penultimate boss

#

Cause like 15 roots in melee

#

Maybe a bit on Fyrak in p2

oak tangle
#

i don't think i'd fok in a kb window

slate crown
#

But if there are adds alive

tall jay
#

So we just ST

#

Straight up

slate crown
#

I use fok outside of kingsbane, I prio during kingsbane

oak tangle
#

you can put in spatter, but it's kinda padding, but ethical

hexed willow
#

^ FoN for more envenom, not to pad

storm forum
#

That's fair, but not every root set is in a kb window

hexed willow
#

Otherwise it’s just spatter or IC during council

oak tangle
#

yeah but fok is less poison procs on main target, hence notinside kb

storm forum
#

I love spattering all over them

tall jay
#

Ok. I will try it thanks

hexed willow
oak tangle
#

yeah but potentially 16 poson applications

#

vs 4

hexed willow
#

What?

#

Those are to other targets

oak tangle
#

dm, muti, dtb

#

4 x 2 x 2

gusty mirage
#

you don't mutilate during KB windows

#

so

#

there goes that math ig

oak tangle
#

que?

hexed willow
storm forum
#

We ambush

gusty mirage
#

you press ambush

#

because you're in shadowdance

hexed willow
#

You can mutilate though

gusty mirage
#

yes

slate crown
#

(Or you can mutilate)

#

The difference is very minor

gusty mirage
#

you can

slate crown
#

like very minor

#

like inconsequentially minor

gusty mirage
#

but you should be ambushing

storm forum
#

(Mut for that +.03% dps increase)

hexed willow
#

Tbh that aspect is regardless cause the poison application argument is the one I don’t agree with

slate crown
oak tangle
#

i am confused

gusty mirage
#

if you wanna mutilate go for it

oak tangle
#

there is at least 5 seconds in kb window where you cannot ambush (pending blindside)

blazing totem
#

what if you need to reapply spatter?

hexed willow
#

You reapply splatter?

ruby birch
#

ambush reapplies caustic splatter

hexed willow
#

Ambush and multi both apply it

ruby birch
#

i swear my sim was mutilating

gusty mirage
#

you ambush whenever you can

hexed willow
#

Oxi if I answer questions so people don’t @ whispyr, is that good for the channel

blazing totem
#

that makes sense

gusty mirage
#

so if you're pushing mutilate during dance

#

you're doing it wrong

oak tangle
#

my setup wont let me press mut if ambush is ready

gusty mirage
#

then you're good to go

storm forum
#

I'm like 99% sure there's a time to press mut instead of ambush inside SD for an inconsequential dps increase but I don't remember if it was just like during PI and/or execute or something else.

ruby birch
#

the sims lied

oak tangle
#

but im still confised about those 5 seconds where mut is the only thing available

gusty mirage
ruby birch
#

that mut is inside dance

hexed willow
#

^

ruby birch
#

for why

storm forum
#

Both those mut are inside dance yeah

gusty mirage
#

that sample is from one iteration

hexed willow
#

Sims want you to muti in dance!

ruby birch
#

i resim, that sim is a couple day old

oak tangle
#

it is a minor optimisation, to do with big poison stacks, cause ambush only hits once

hexed willow
#

But regardless

storm forum
#

Can you check later in the sim too? To see if it's just inside DM or just with hero?

hexed willow
#

Where’s the 16 coming from memz

storm forum
#

Ty

charred mango
#

Doesn’t mut potentially proc poisons more than an ambush?

oak tangle
#

dm = 2 x poison, dtb = 4 poisons, mut = 2 hits = 2x4x2 = 16

ruby birch
#

new in lust

#

its a lust thing?

#

maybe

slate crown
#

(It is a deathmark thing)

ruby birch
gusty mirage
#

also during DM

#

you have more energy

ruby birch
#

its a deathmark thing

#

dude wait that makes so much sense

storm forum
#

Nice we're making sense

hexed willow
#

Why?

storm forum
#

I hate sense

#

Mut is double the poison chance than ambush, so during dm+kb it makes sense

ruby birch
#

im guessing the double hit from mut is only worth with the double from DM

#

but without the 2x from DM its just worse than ambush

gusty mirage
storm forum
#

So the sim/apl finds it outweighs the other advantages of ambush

ruby birch
gusty mirage
#

you're guaranteed 3cp with ambush

slate crown
#

Just to be clear, this is a very minor change in terms of impact

gusty mirage
#

vs 2,3, or 4 with mutilate depending on crits

hexed willow
gusty mirage
#

like we're talking the smallest of energy optimizations here right

#

it's 1 cp

hexed willow
#

Always mutilate besides blindside or always ambush? 0.002%

ruby birch
#

yeah thats giga small

gusty mirage
#

for bad rolls on mut

storm forum
#

Yeah fractions of % of dps increase that I don't care enough for

#

But it's fun to think about

oak tangle
#

kinda deviating from the original question, which was whether to fok or mut/amb on cleave raid bosses

storm forum
#

Cause I'm deranged

hexed willow
#

I just made a macro

ruby birch
#

but now i will begin ambushing in non DM windows

hexed willow
#

It’s super easy to always mutilate or always ambush

gusty mirage
#

obviously mutilate/ambush to keep up spatter

hexed willow
ruby birch
#

also not to be a nuisance, but super short answer to why dont we refresh rupture in dance every time? why is it only in non DM windows? is it just trying to maximize KB within DM

oak tangle
#

yeah, but inside a kb window is the curious part, because fok will give cp, but lower poison applications, just curious as to which tops in terms of prio damage

gusty mirage
storm forum
#

Afaik, NS rup is more minor than guaranteed env uptime

gusty mirage
#

essentially we gain more from ensuring envenom uptime during KB than we would snapshotting nightstalker into the rupture

hexed willow
#

They explained it so much better damn

#

I tried to kept it short

slate crown
#

Like honestly

#

I kind of regret making my snapshot rupture wa

#

Not really, I still track it

#

but it's so minor

#

garrote is the important one

gusty mirage
#

it's more of a QoL thing, because you want as much nightstalker damage caked into all our dots, but dropping envenom hurts more than reapplying a non-NS'd rupture

hexed willow
ruby birch
#

okay i think i get it, im assuming DM just amplifies that and its moreso a non problem outside of DM hence why the sim is always refreshing rupture in non DM dances

#

that or my ashes is making it do that

slate crown
#

Also like, even on the damage itself, envenom critting due to MA = entire envenom damage is a crit, instead of a rupture application NS which is only 10% on the entire dot, the damage of envenom is compressed and if MA crits with it, it's more overall damage. It's a gamble but like, it's also way simpler

#

And sims point to the differences being minor so like

#

So, do the simpler option, make your brain think less

gusty mirage
#

yeah so it's essentially tossing out the NS'd rupture every now and then for less for the brain to process

ruby birch
#

yeah ive never really ruptured in dances, always thought envenom was more worth but saw the sim be a lil weird outside DM

half moss

I don't think stance 2 is wrong

so stance2 should work

woeful hollow
#

Oh i didnt have it put on my stealth bar

gusty mirage

ya, should ambush when in stealth/dance and should mutilate outside of those situations

woeful hollow
#

it works now thanks

gusty mirage
hexed willow
#

As opposed to ambush elsewhere

slate crown
#

how does that work

#

I don't think macros can distinguish dance from other types of stealth

#

can they?

hexed willow
#

It can

#

Stealth is 1

#

Subterfuge/SD is 2

#

So theeefore you can always ambush from stealth/blindside but mutilate from SD/subterfuge

The number in % is just amount of poisons applied * 20
so 1360 = 68 stacks of poisons.
it's not actually multiplied, it's additive damage to each tick.
The damage might be low because you just didn't crit is my guess.

oak tangle
#

true, could also be how early into the window the stacks applied

gaunt moat
#

It had to be pretty late. you can't add stacks 68 in 3 seconds hah.
I'm wondering if it's better to just write the amount of stacks instead of how much bonus damage.

slate crown
# past forum So to touch in an earlier convo about ns ruptures….is it worth refreshing ruptur...

It's going to be a sliding scale, if you literally just ruptured before dance with full CP, rupturing again is going to essentially waste a bunch of the energy/cp you spent on that first rupture, even though it snaps it to higher damage for the next rupture (and carries forward 30% via pandemic). There will be a point based on how close to the previous rupture between where it is better value to rupture, or better value to envenom.

Do you want to do that math/time comparison every time you dance rupture? I do not. -> Envenom. It's not much of a gain anyways. If your rupture is in pandemic anyways, rupture. If not, envenom, is how I think about it.

solid mica
