nah man
I only do 40+'s sorry
lol i'd probably be down with like 9-13 but i understand why you're only on 17
dungeon aint hard
nah i know
i just dont feel like dealing with bursting and such anymore this week or pugging or try-harding while pugging, etc.
yeah fair enough
Bursting is a healer affix anyways
Not your problem

so true king
thoughts on dropping CT in m+? the multi target gain of CT looks extremely low
rate my m+ build
whenw ill it drop for me
CT is the single best talent in AoE and it's not even close
You never ever drop CT in mythic+
U r trying to hard. Pretend it's a lover. You need to give it space.
Didnt you see musclebrah pump yesterday with his no ct no scent build??!? /S
I love forbidden tech, like the no snapshot KB build that people are doing

how do i stop getting wrist pain while playing now
how does thiw rok without CT?
How high do I have to get alchemy where corrupting rage does less damage to me
I bet I could spend 2 hours cleaning out my vault...and still have shit in there from 15 years ago that i'll never use or touch
its quite shrimple
Noticed I was taking more dmg in keys
By moving buttons to your other hand as well. I have majority of my buttons on my mouse nowadays
some galakrond fall 25/26 logs by zerocool runs this build
honestly - you gotta redo your keybinds dude
Like you're gonna suck for a week but
even my mouse hand wrist is sore 😦 my gaming must be coming to an end
you gotta do it
Tell you this - the lest you have to hit shift and alt - the better.
Zerocool is notorious for playing terrible feelcraft builds
AND get a PROPER size gaming mouse.
i don't use these, but i think if anything it's my ~ key
Wouldn't trust the man to change my lightbulb
its literally the council build
I switched to a logitech g203
and my right hand pain / wrist pain (my thumb basically up my wrist) went away
!up
I had major hand pain as well but I also work full time as a musician so kinda comes with the craft
But making sure to spam less and get a proper mouse helped a ton
Comfortable binds are hard to find
Yeah especially for most melees
I should make some wowhead guide for wrist pain or something
I was using wheelclick as a spender bind, and almost lost my right hand after playing fury

i swear, i've put so much thought, time, and experimentation into this over the years
I have gone to osteopaths, chiropractors and fysiotherapists a bunch as well lol
Honestly too, sometimes, you gotta make the changes, and literally take a week off too
like that stuff has to heal a bit
We all know at that point we’re just supposed to leave azeroth for a while
Yeah outlaw was giving me hand pain had to play sin to cool off

or is garrote supposed to be up there by a ton?
Gar kb ct rup spatter sang
Somethibg like that
Yes
And yes
yeah garrote should probably be top
Gar is king
Stealth garrote is our main damage
I feel like I don’t need to spam my buttons as hard as I do but I’m too use to it
You can get rid of it for sure
I used to be a big spammer
Oh that's a good point. Actually track/watch your global too. And understand your /spellqueuewindow - so you're hitting your spells once, instead of 8 times
I press the buttons like five times
Probably from league days
really? i only lost 0.6% on 5 target for dropping ct
Having to spam right click 10000 times a second
Huh? In sims or
sims
personally Im not only spamming the ability binds like 20 times before the gcd starts rolling but I also additionally press movement keys while doing it
and it fucks my wrist
And what did you take in place of it
I've tried f'in around with:
but gained like 3% st
no dice
A friend of mine also playing osu for decades
Yeah
i have been using this one, dropping ct for evenom 2sec
Yeah and with our class sitting at a fixed 1s gcd, you literally press buttons once or twice and you're good
no blindside, no care
CT for TTK?
Idk how you're getting 3% extra st damage from TTK
yeah it takes like a week
When you're forced to
to retrain
na its fine I also play other classes and there its sometimes useful
When you literally cannot game because of pain
get new keybinds if you have wrist pain - really THINK about the shit you're hitting OFTEN and the shit you're hitting infrequently.
Gotta make changes
Like 1 is a terrible bind for a generator, but everyone still uses it
I've even got my outlaw binds to the point where I can play it without pain
Spamming 1 with pinky ain't it
I always gen on 2
qerf gang
But most people never have issues anyway
yeah if I was smart, i woulda made my WAD keys ESF years ago (but that i can't get used to)
Yeah, I literally cannot play Outlaw
yeah my mut / ambush is on 2
yeah that's total left wrist pain dude
My mut is on my mouse
mut is that closest mouse button for me
and envenom is the one right infront of (above?) it
Mine is below
idk maybe I'm getting old but i cant get used to mouse binds
only thing i have on mouse are mounts
But yeah all generators and Env on mouse
I've yet to play a class that needs more than (shift/ctrl) qerf 1234 zxcv
Everything else on keyboard
I have like Cheapshot is alt+mut button
I rarely hit it
SND is shift+1 -
rarely hit it ya know
Wat
I've always been fine hitting shift though - it's the alt binds that get me
Anything 1234 and under feels good to press
i use shift and ctrl, alt is only for rare things like pot, shroud, buffs etc
ctrl modifier is mostly def/utility/cc
shift is dps cds and some spells
Also, a 10-key-less keyboard helped a lot. It keeps the keyboard more "centered" - cause i use my mouse directly to the right of it. Just keeps my whole arms, shoulders, and wrists in a better position.
Although I do miss the 10-key
do you guys run a different spec in Fall instead of zoldyck? dps is kinda bad on Iridikron
Yeh I use TKL as well
idk i need my numpad
Just run the non AP one
cant type numbers without it
And my keyboard has to be like exactly 1.5inches from the edge of the desk, etc. right where my left palm wrests.
Wat
so basically the fort version from last week
You can GET a 10-key that isn't attached if you need it for some stuff though
I mean i dont have issues, i like my fullsized kb
like work or entering codes / alt-codes, etc
Well there's no fort or tyrannical builds. Every build is more or less viable depending on the dungeons
basically the one that doesnt require execute to not lose the worth of 2points
You can take the DTB build and take VR instead for slightly better st feel
because iridikron = no execute
Or path down to blindside but not all the way down to ap
Yeah Venom Rush over Flying daggers even - in the arterial build doesn't seem like a terrible thing to swap
Can I check we cast finisher at 4 CP or more or Max CP -1?
4+
its not, its imo the better build and its also included in the builds of whispyr
VR is?
ok so my max CP is 6 so always at 5 or above ya?
hrmm
4+
ok
because u can overcap if u gen on 4 with a crit
Whispyr's doesn't take VR
yeah i'm not seeing any of whispyr's with it
If i was gonna change anything about arterial, it'd be that one point though - into VR. But probably not on fort weeks, i dunno.
now that is a breakdown!
wait.. So if my CP now is 4, do I cast the finisher or cast mutilate?
...
Whispyr's builds are on wowhead
These no crimson tempest people don't give up
Yes you can too
he submitted bloodmallet profiles
He did
and they have the vr version
I never talked about any guides
Bloodmallet has all sorts of shit for you to compare
I mean you said "whispyr's builds"
that's assumed to just mean his builds he puts in his guides for people to follow
yeah because he submitted those specific setups
wdym
not some random thing buried in a bloodmallet profile lol
ok lol
" I've also included the m+ hybrid build, as well as the arterial build with tiny toxic/flying daggers versus arterial with blindside/venom rush as a comparison. "
yeah he used it as a comparison
to make educated recomendations for the builds for people to play - that he publishes in his guides.
Those are not the builds he recommends
I'm sure it's a fine point to swap - it's just not in his builds
Just a bunch of builds for comparison sake
doesnt change the fact its his version of the "possible" builds
but alrighty
not gonna argue about that any further
The point of bloodmallet is to compare all possible variations
post builds to show that theyre not good
see theyre being posted about, that means theyre good
Literally cant win
Good and bad ones
I like to just take known good builds, and randomly change some points here and there, sim em, and find the least sucky thing to change - that just makes it suck a little bit more. Then I can say i'm playing my own build.
!up
same i just take blackjack instead of tricks and call it my own
Anyways
I do the same but i 100% take tricks everywhere i go
simming a build and including it for people to see are different things, especially if the message below literally says they all perform similar and you should choose on what you need. but yeah, its a good/bad comparison if they all perform similar
now that eleem has tuned in any discussion isnt useful anyways
idk tricks on outlaw yes but sin? not rly sold on it

but u can feel more useful if u dr 30% for 6 sec
ugh i know
I had the same thing but I grew to like the aoe blind with dr
especially on big pulls
I dunno how often i'm blinding or sapping shit though honestly
sapping rarely ig
AoE blind is insane
its a 1 min cd literally do it every other pull especially to interrupt shit
yeah it is
and the dr is a nice bonus
Can literally save a situatiom
im confused who isn't taking aoe blind
its not about aoe blind its about blackjack over tricks
so i mean i've messed with it
yeah, especially if many things are there to interrupt, like before second boss in fall
with the enervates
yeah like those choking vines too in EB
ahh, i take tricks, cause my tank is a bitch and pulls 3 mobs
so i "help" him
I guess i just got used to having tricks over the years i dunno
it's the sole reason i even have the clique addon lol
if you black jacked an entire pack with an ap shiv, bigge damage reduction
u mean wire?
nah
ahh
atrophic / numbing
i did mean arterial
dm me im a bit slow
does envenom chain with 4p mean you use env when envenom reaches its pandemic window of 2 seconds until you do not have any energy left or does it mean you just go from full energy down to low blasting env no matter the envbuff pandemic as long as it is up because you just want the dmg and 4p explosion?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Any1 have a WA to remind u to 2nd shiv asap when up during kingsbane and to use thistle tea last 6 seconds on our cd rotation? Really annoying weird mechanic that is very time sensitive
I use blind for DR or just AoE stop. Pretty strong.
I'm just using LE's kingsbane timeline. Think it's in the WA command?

anyone got the macro to use ambush over mutilate in Sdance?
i don't have the macro for you, but at the same time i have one from sub you can modify
#showtooltip
/cast [stance:2] Shadowstrike
/cast [stance:1] shadowstrike
/cast [stance:0] Backstab; Gloomblade
If I snapshot a improve garrote, then at 5 seconds left apply a new non-improved garrote, does the new garrote do 5 seconds of improved dmg or is it basically a missplay to reapply garrote during pandemic?
And the right play is to let the improved to simply run its course?
!up
If you cast regular at 5 sec left, it overwrites it...but it does pandemic (or last longer).
Correct. The right play is to let the improved expire.

Read About Pooling

TLDR:```- Outside of Cooldowns, you want to wait until your envenom is in pandemic/around 1 second in order to proc tier. This is the core concept of "chaining", where you clip envenoms back to back
- If it's getting uncomfortable to chain, or you have to let envenom drop, pool back up to around 80% energy, and then start another chain
- Always wait to envenom, never wait to mutilate/ambush. You want to generate your combo points as soon as possible, and then evaluate whether you should pool or use a finisher
- Without 4 piece, chaining envenoms has no benefit and you can try to be above 50% energy for sanguine
- With 4 piece, the chain takes priority over sanguine and you would play around the tier, not sanguine```The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and tier procs which is a more efficient energy use
lol
This doesn't seem accurate tbh
I love shit posting in RH while I pool
Favorite part of playing sin tbh
Lotta free time for memeing
Not even close to how good it was back in sl
Full on movie mode during mythic prog
You ignore it
yo why tf i just look at details and saw my sanguine blades got parried 3 times??
excuse me?!
I hate parry being a mechanic so much
Amen
i do too but i am giga confused
If they wanna keep parry, bring back spell resist ty
what do you mean ignore it?
as to how iridikron parried sanguine blades
you just don't play around sanguine blades
you do your rotation normally and it gives you free damage sometimes
It's especially jarring coming from FF14 where it's not a thing and I can spin my character any direction and still hit. Takes some definite getting used to swapping back and forth xD
Seems kind of horseshit we need to stand behind bosses when casters don’t have a positional requirement
If i snapshot rupture with nightstalker, do i let it completely fall of like garrote or refresh in pandemic ?
Also when there are bosses that just force you to be in front
or on a boss where you basically are in front of it 80% of the fight you just... get parried sometimes because fuck you
Let it fall off fully before refreshing
man fuck the parry chance
why does it exist
why cant casters just miss anymore
and we get parried
Most raid encounters like that don't parry
Ye if its the entire encounter (like volcoross)
and nymue
Yeah usually for bosses like they they remove parry completely. But for some reason that’s not consistent either
But then you have stuff like neltharion where you kinda need to stand infront of him a lot
But he can still parry
PRECISELY
so fun
great mechanic 10/10
(im dead inside help me)
I feel so immersed when I get parried
Yeah, moreso it's the inconsistency there
Everyone’s a master fucking swordsman apparently
It's just a frustrating and bad mechanic
ill feel real immersed when my kb gets parried
Especially when my kingsbane get parried. My first reaction is definitely immersion
Well it’s the bane of a king, and you are a king my friend 
holy shit


Oxi is a smooth mfer
I’m just an eleem simp
anyone else experiencing getting declined from pugs doing 17-19s when you're like almost 2800 or is it just me?
Nah fam. Everywhere you go…: 💦
See now you’re getting to the score where people are scared you’ll leave after one wipe
thats fair but also im a rogue signing up for fall, i wouldn't leave if we were 10 minutes over LMAO
i got all this shit timed idc bout io
Gotta pump the brakes or push 22s
im just out here tryna get my 1% damage 🥲
Makes you wonder how many assholes play this game lmao
Guildies do that lmao
People don’t understand that if I’m pugging keys I literally don’t have anything else to do
I ain’t leaving your key
My other option is farming genesis motes in zereth mortis
i wish you could like
make a perma status when you sign up for keys
bc that is such a mood lmao
if im pugging its like.. im not doing this to be competitive, im just bored and wanna hit things
It’s a fucking video game man
I wish you could sign up and have a no leaver status that if you leave before completion, you get key banned until reset
You can leave a key?
exactly lmao
Wait what
Yeah ask the tanks who pull 17s like MDIs and then alt f4 after they die lmao
They’ll show you the way
christ
i feel like that can be exploited, like some people troll the shit out of a no leaver key to force other people to leave and get key banned
I didnt know that cause nobody attempt that except before everyone agreed
had that happen too many times
All trash before first boss and first boss. Wipes
I’ll flame them and laugh when it’s 4 melee and a MW
everything can be exploited, there's no perfect system sadly. just ways to hopefully help stop some things
I did a 20 fall the other day with Nef healing @gray crest we wiped 3 times on 2nd boss and still +2’d the key
lmao
lmao
It’s such a free key compared to rise
On his 451 disc priest with no tier and no trinkets
i must confess a terrible sin oxi, something never done by the vatican... I played sub yesterday in some keys
i literally did throne 21 and +2'd it with 27 deaths
Why is that a sin
Sub is fun man
people leaving keys is WILD to me when shit like that happens
Dust just sucks
^^^^^^
Its literally just not a sin
it is. I have no idea what im doing but it was fun
Not a sin rogue

I was actually so hype to play sub this tier before I realized I’d be forced to play shadowdust

I like sub a lot
I still don't get why people hate shadowdust so much
and possibly fyrakk depending on what it looks like when we get there
Idk why people think I hate it
what's the issue? I checked with whispyr he said it was fine
True
why 1/3 of my alts are rogues

for me its like... idk. Shadowdust just FEELS wrong to me
i cant explain it but its like
its just incorrect
hrmm
I just hate CDR mechanics because I’m old and cranky
Ye
Now get off my lawn you damn kids
It's awk
and bc of that i dont like it and now i have my own meme
What about sl tier set
Vendetta cd
I think you just guessed my entire wifi password
REEEEEEEEEEEE
Forced exsang and duskwalkers was my absolute misery
I was about to download that dust meme but I realized I already saved it lmao
Outlaw was literally unplayable until fated, sub was rogue roulette and my other option was duskwalkers and forced exsang
9.2 was dark times

Sub just felt like punished so severely back then for mechanics or losing uptime
And flag was like a double punish
cause i think your flag sucked, and then you lost the CDR or something
@gray crest remembers my depression during sepulcher
I’ll never forget xymox prog, get sent to an island playing sub, tier set procs 6 times in a row and everything dies, next time 0 procs and I’m doing tank damage

i got to sit on boss as a fury warrior
how long is this zalarek cavern campaign questline
tryina knock out pathfinder, it's the last thing i have
You missed the jet banger on KT “my vendetta isn’t up yet”
“Figure it out”
Oh okay
i told my rl like i can just run bladestorm and erase the existence of any platform
but no
Couple hours at most
jeeezus
Were you on piping his corpse duty?
f'in ele was bangin on sylvanas, i remember that
I was dodging mortar shells in the beaches of Normandy while blinded by two spears of bastion
!dagger
Couldn’t see shit
Damn warriors man
One of those warriors had a banger for anduin prog
It took me a moment to remember who the other warrior was lol
holy shit that was funny
I’ll bang you
We brought him in, our RL: “do you have any questions before you leap in and kill everyone?”
“No”
First pull, he leaps into melee and kills us all

Youre forgetting the numerous times that he would pop all his cds and bladestorm the adds and bring everyone up early
Anduin made me question everything
There is not a fate worse than two quebecois dps warriors
I see you also raided with Archi
That was after he blew us all up with blasphemy
@strange python yo unironically I sat back in my chair and raised my chair's armrests to table height and i was vibing in the key i jsut did
10/10 posture check
hello guys I have a little question I'm new on wow and trying to pvp but I don't have gear so what talent should I use and if you have any suggestion pls tell me what should I do (sorry for bed england xd)

is it even worth taking splatter for the spears on igara? i lose like 1 mil st and am only doin like 1.7 mil to the spears
welp thats my sign to go to bed instead of try to do a dawn
like overall sure its technically a gain but iono
got into one where there were 2 warriors and one died on first leap, other smashing in at 45k dps
heals just left
lmao
On heroic I wouldn’t bother, but on mythic it’s worth the slight loss to boss damage cause sometimes those spears live a long ass time otherwise
christ
embrace the pad
perfect, thats what i was thinkin
jumpin into mythic today but heroic clear first
Yeah I found spatter outside of kb windows to be kind of whatever on heroic
Most of the time the DHs are too busy doing havoc things deleting everything off the face of the earth
@gusty mirage is the angel @cunning basin is the devil
just do one bad thing, its not that big of a deal, after all, why shouldn't you pad?
bro
And your screen locks up for a second
its unreal
holy fuck dude
literally locks up
its insane
Shit boss 
and hope its processing
any other gamers holding / not holding dm on things like ozumat so it's up in execute on the big ass tentacle
i was like 3rd on root damage vs 10 people in m+ spec and top boss damage by 12m on our first heroic tindral kill
shit was comical
me to my raidlead: "i told you so"
she didn't believe that any class would ever beat unholy dk in st
Isn't it just a free win once he spawns?
I try to get through that first phase as quick as possible, personally
Same
But when DM comes up for ozumat it feels amazing, shit skews your overall SO hard lmao
yeah
on that note earlier @gusty mirage do you run ic on council? were spread and i feel like i got basically zero value from that shit cept on pull
was thinkin just runnin st build until/if we ever group the bosses more
all natty i swear
Oh yeah me too lmao
This is the way tbh
Yea, I can send you the build I yoinked from stealthi
Throw on spatter if you're gonna have em decently stacked but fuck man idk. Feels like I always see other raids doing it have 2 bosses stacked constantly
But mine it's like, it just doesn't happen
does anyone have a raid timing compilation doc or something about fight timings
@timber meadow BMQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEJJhkEEAAAAAASJJSJJAAAAAAgmkESgkkWaREREJJJRSTJSAA
For opener wait until deer is about to jump, garrote pip, then step gar -> rupture deer and it should cleave to bear boy
And after that pray your group doesn’t grief the boss and kill it and watch 3 agi polearms drop

Damn the SIM is pumping the evenoms without having to pool and loosing uptime I don’t yet understand how
Im always 10-15 casts behind on 5 min
click spec on right, select difficulty
I mean... 10-15 casts behind is like.. you're doing mechanics lol
On a dummy i mean haha
Oh
On a dummy you’re missing windfury and lust
I sim without any raid buffs to compare
You can set sim to dummy
Both of those contribute to total envenoms
If you’re behind no raidbuffs are you pooling properly
Envenom uptime correlates weakly with energy income
Thing im confused about is that if I pool to be > 50% energy and have good uptime im really far behind on evenom casts
You don't worry about staying above 50 unless you don't have 4p

Toxic thorn boots and wrists with toxified armor patch
Oh I see
👍
perfect thx
But the more I wait the less casts I do right ?
Confuses the shit out of me sry guys 😂
I mean yeah kinda, but also during CDs you're dumping energy and not pooling at all
The sim afaik uses the same pooling logic
Im gonna log it see if i can spot a bad pattern on my side
Do you actually send into deer? Because urcos charge away in the last 5 sec of DM or so
Assassination is a relatively low APM spec, there's a good bit of downtime where you're literally just sitting there waiting for energy
So don't feel like you're not spamming enough. If you follow the guides on pooling and rotation properly you're doing it right
Ok thanks
Essentially it’s the only target you’ll get consistent uptime on
Plus bear gets absolutely ass blasted
Also my kingbane crit like crazy with hourglass trinket and crit being my highest stat 😂
no, because of how combo points and energy work, if you dont cap on energy and dont generate when at full cp, you will not lose casts
Makes sense
Ty
the art of pooling kind of squishes your apm inside your cooldowns, and stretches it between them
Yeah but if you send bear you get cleave on all 3
I did send on bear on kill but won't anymore as it's just sadge
Unless you hold until after the charge full sending and getting full value on bear just isn’t possible
So just maining utilitarian for m+ shouldn't be a problem with how good it performs now?
i am going to emulate whispyr:
do what ever, it doesn't matter
Play the one you like, it doesn't matter
Yeah, just don't like the wrong one and play that one
I believe in arterial superiority because blindside is BIS
The only wrong one is sub
You're under arrest
sub is my #2 tool for inting keys
How do you play Witherbark's Branch optimally ?
outlaw is my #1
Same
1/1/7
nah sub is good
Grab an orb, grab second orb, kite for ~7 seconds and grab third
why 7sec?
so that you are at 3 stacks for the last ticks of kingsbane
It's a 10 second buff and you want the full 3stack for the end of kb
so you pick them up as you deathmark?
you cast it when you deathmark
And pick up as you do your rotation
as long as that last ball hits you around your 2nd shiv, you're fine
oke
I'll have less burst than ashes of the embersoul but more sustained dmg right?
@gusty mirage 54 RUNS
ITS OVER
THE FIRST DAGGER
no upgrade materials for the week left

yo guys do you have any cool kingsbane macro?
any button with kingsbane attached to it is cool
!mcro
hi guys, after 40 runs i finally dropped Witherbark's Branch... now the question, how to use... do you use it while ramping with dots or at the end when all dots are on the targets ?
scroll up 10-15 messages
Congrats you're out of jail!!
just moved to the low security wing
yea the playstyle with 7 seconds daleay for the 3rd orb is fine, but i mean when to use it, at burst after deathmark/kingsbane is done ?
On deathmark
Macro that and pot into deathmark
GGEZ
aight so i can macro it with deathmark ggs

❤️
you got a macro for that ?
i am to dumb atm -.-
#showtooltip
/cast deathmark
/use 13
/use elemental Potion of power
^so i have to press 3 times ?
no
13 is top trinket slot Fyi. (Where on use should go)
Hi guys, was simming the Pip trinket but for me it shows a significant downgrade compared to the Accelerating Sandglass, not sure why. Even at 489 IL it sims like 900 dps less than a 483 glass, was curiouss since mallet sims show pip pretty high up i believe
yes
Playing arterial precision be like: Oh there are 5 mobs below 35%? Oh they all have my bleeds? shivs
Pepega DPS: where did the mobs go?
Healer: Rages from bursting
We love popping a full pack with shiv

My boy’s finally free :’)
Assass feels pretty good in dungs though, not just rotation but even build variety, you can run Sudden with DTB, Arterial with Sudden and Arterial DTB and all seem to be performing very nice
i will frame this. beautiful
54 x 20-30 min, was it worth it? I'm just gonna hope for a vault one lol
anyone got the food sim string
dont think they added something relevant since s1
Unfortunately all trinket options once you get branch and sandglass is shit. Even signet brand is dogshit on sub 6min fight's.
Hi! If i used the free wyrms crest week 1 on my first craft, should I use my aspects crest on my week 3 craft so I dont waste resources?
If your first craft was boots and your 2nd will be a toxified patch it's not really worth it to max that one out with Aspect's Crests right now
ah true hissing got added later
okay, so aspect the boots, then just buy wyrms with my currency and enchant it?
for my helm
okay thanks
and the food is 67 stat now i think
what do i have to do to have nick of time drop
idk fryane ive ran 20+ fall
Me nono either
im at 60
no one
just loot it lol
Should we be using the custom APL found in the Fuu's sim when running our own sims?
anyone have the simc string for racials?
ty
i prepped my loot because i didnt loot it once in prepatch

i think ive decided to just quit wow cause of it lmao
why quit
itsa unlimited farmable
unlike the weekly lockout shit last patch
way less toxic
life before death
because ive done it so many time slrready its ruined the game
but i got 6 sand glasss and 5 legs and chests with some boots and gloves
strength before weakness
I mean its better that it’s in m+ instead of raid and you’re just praying once a week for it ya know
At least there’s that

id rather raid cause then i dont have to torment myself 15 times a day to try and get it
dude my sims are all over the place with stats... changing 1 gear and i move from mas/crit gems to haste/mastery or haste/vers 
As nightelf, is shadowmeld then stealth a thing in m+ to go into stealth?
welcome too gem sims
thats why they are kinda w/e lol
damn that's harsh... i think i spent 50k gold on gems alone
ye unless there's like an aoe cast going off cause that keeps you in combat
but if you're fast enough you can meld->stealth on trash
^
like
do a gem sim when something bigger happens
trinket drops or shit like that
it's not 100~ diff, it's more like 2K diff
fast enough like even with my dots are on ?
yeah you can still do it w/ your dots rolling but the window is super tight
got trinket and had to change it all, got the last 4 set and again. got a belt and so on.. it's 2-3k diff every time
you'll get it down after a few tries tbh
macro and spam the key 

and sometimes you just accept that the aoe casts the DH isn't kicking are griefing you
and you just get sad
has anyone simmed how much of a gain it is to delay embersoul a bit into DM?
well im happy that its a thing at least
ideal use of ashes is 3s into your KB window
and i was happy abt not collecting orbs, still some catch to this one too
Is there anyone here familiar with elvui settings
I need to make it so my bar 1 dissapears when i enter stealth and another appears
yes @strange python
I had that when i took someones profile from the net, but now ium trying to make one of my own
pm me

hi, quick question. During Tyrannical week is it me who only struggling with energy or im doing something wrong?
!pooling

TLDR:```- Outside of Cooldowns, you want to wait until your envenom is in pandemic/around 1 second in order to proc tier. This is the core concept of "chaining", where you clip envenoms back to back
- If it's getting uncomfortable to chain, or you have to let envenom drop, pool back up to around 80% energy, and then start another chain
- Always wait to envenom, never wait to mutilate/ambush. You want to generate your combo points as soon as possible, and then evaluate whether you should pool or use a finisher
- Without 4 piece, chaining envenoms has no benefit and you can try to be above 50% energy for sanguine
- With 4 piece, the chain takes priority over sanguine and you would play around the tier, not sanguine```The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and tier procs which is a more efficient energy use
which build are you playing?
and run arterial maybe
yeah
i prefer the aterial shock build
cause it takes blindside
i think techncially that build does a bit more damage but you get energy starved
alright thank you will try the aterial shock build
i even go without CT because the aoe is not necessary at all, enough aoe from multi dot / 4P / caustic / pb blablabla
on 22 23 24
Don't listen to this guy
for overall sim (raid and M+) do you guys use dungeon slice or PATCHWERK with 5 targets and lower timer?
ive been told in this discord that dungeon slice is better to sim for rogues
I got a question guys, im 4p since some days, and i had to replace my legs for (which were crafted with toxified thing), I already got my boots with 486 with the thorns embellishment. So right now, this thorns buff isn't boosted by 100%. I still have to craft 1 item this week, but im not sure, i simmed it, and it shows me to craft lariat for Multitarget and alcritous alchemist stone for ST. But what about the 2nd toxified thing?
for m+
i saw whisper saying that setting PATCHWERK with 5 targets and 1.5 min is for AOE
listen to him then
i do. but i look for overall not just AOE
what do you mean overal?
raids and M+ stats
like good at aoe but not sacrificing too much ST (i take that as)
like in middle ground stats
any of our builds are good with that honestly
now sub gives up like barely any ST in their m+ build
to any build
eexactly but i only need the stats part
yeah i dunno what "the stats part" is honestly
gems + enchant
i mean
oh - you're looking to like optimize your gems for m+?
You are over thinking it
just optimize them for ST really
If you wanna get into the weeds, you need to just think about what sim-type most-closely reflects the types of encounters you want to excel in.
and then have at it but
when it comes to over 2-4k dmg diff it's not overthinking
that's too much caring for me
almost every specs stat weights change based on the encounter
Do you...
i wouldnt worry that much about balacing your stats for ST vs AoE
Do you think Sin is better than outlaw for keys (if the tank likes to chain pull)?
I think they're both good honestly...play what you enjoy most and are better at imo
depends on target counts
tell them you'll brick this bitch if they dont let you restealth - works every time
That's why we dont get invites
what does sin even do for high target counts? im coming from outlaw and my hands hurt : |
multi dots
Thank you 😄
They make a guide to tell you exactly this, in detail
and crimson tempest
mostly just shooting the shit here man. ill look it up in more detail later
You get 8 people here, will kinda tell you 8 different things, based on the same guide...so just read the guide

sub is gonna be better at truly high target counts
Quick question - do you pool for sanguine (last seasons tier) during trash packs or let it bottom out to get more bleeds out?
M+ build btw
you have excess energy in m+ packs
Sanguine Blades? You technically play like it doesn't exist (at least with new 4p)
you cant really pool
Whyspr has a video on his YouTube for this
Thank you for this tip I’ll go check it out.
Yeah honestly if your spreading bleeds correctly in aoe pooling isn’t even an option really as u physically just shouldn’t be able to spend the energy coming in 😂♥️

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
No, Fu D:
Can someone advice me?
I think most are doing toxified patch on wrist - at 476?
because the crests are better spent on other things.
boots at 486
because a higher ilvl waist is available (which has more stats)
np
why does sim use mutilate over ambush during sd? not always but usually
i think it's for poison application chance
it's like ~100 total dps difference, at the end of the day?
if memory serves me correct
Baited by what
someone say its as good as mythic one
How and where is that a bait though
and i have 470
are you able to farm the neck or is it just once a week?
you eventually got it
“With PI in order to give it the best possible chance, it's around equal to a 472”
Taken directly from the pin
I infact, never got it
I have 17 hours until raid, I need a nick of time still, I need to sleep, what are the chances
If you grind hard enough it might drop just in the nick of time
Do we run caustic splatter?
I know wowhead/icy doesnt but most logs show people do take it
sometiems we do
For any cleave yes.
Short answer, if spatter is gonna give more than IB, then you use it.
If PURE ST you take the IB talent
if there's anything to cleave ever i pretty much just swap that point
Alright appreciate it
I spammed for 2 days, and really fucking late one night i was gonna go to bed but said ‘’fuckit, one more key’’ and it dropped that key
damn
Moral of the story, dont sleep, spam doti lower
I'd be hard pressed to give up this 10% leech man
mine dropped in a key done bcs i was mad right after raid and just before reset
!dagger
is anyone analyzing logs? i see wowanalyzer is not updated, i switched to rogue couple days ago and i practiced but i feel i am doing something wrong on ST
I think there are folks that do - but it's SLOW in here rn?
maybe post and sometimes they make a thread for you
typical eu pug experience
maybe ping whispyr, or oxi, i dunno
Is there a BIS effect for the dagger?
it's leech or mv speed
@balmy condor is there a stand alone version of the glowing debuff plater mod?

sick tyvm
Now you can fly on the bee mount!
yeah now i can pick herbs properly lol
what poisons do i apply on m+ build? instant or deadly?
wow head build i imported doesnt have DTB so i guess only one
yeah deadly
thanks!
You did spec into deadly after all
I think it's all done by a machine now: it's wowanalyser.com
pop your logs in there and it'll break it down
This may be a dumb question, but i hold both my shiv charges so that it's up for kingsbane window, is this correct?
yessir
I do still have this dogshit
so do i
IT DROPPED
When i apply runes to my weapon it applies it to my mainhand first, then again in my mainhand and only then in my offhand
how do i preven tha
you dont spam click
you wait a second
I’ve learned that when you try to apply them too quickly, it’ll do MH MH OH. But if you take a 1 second break in between applying them, it’ll do MH OH
i've lost approximately 2000 gold to this
says it is not updated and only shows stuff about garrote and rupture
if you link your log here people can have a looksie

Really? For me it rather looks like - if I apply rune during ready check, it will always go only on mh. - Otherwise I can do it as fast as I want and it still applies to both w/o any macro.
In the long run is it best to craft bracers with crit/mastery?
I didnt want to go off a sim where my gear is likely to change so quickly this early in season
In the long run it depends on other pieces that you will aquire. You can always change stats on any crafted gear anyway.

for the witherbarks branch trinket, what does wowhead mean by 1/1/7 and 1/1/4?
u collect the first 2 orbs with 1 sec delay and the last with 4-7 sec
what do you think about this talent build?
Does my mate lose his famed title if he leaves his guild he got it on right now?
yes
Well the guild got HoF, he didn't
well its tied to the guild not to the player
do I use it with deathmark on? since its saying to macro it
deathmark + potion 😉
can i elemental chaos for the potion?

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
how long should i be pooling my energy when its depleted on sin rogue during st encounters, is it an amount of time or certain amount of energy im waiting to hit before i start rolling through again
80%ish
So should I never be dropping below 100 energy because I’m using sanguine blades?

thank you for the help!
I currently don’t have any 2p or 4p, just picked rogue back up and I’m loving the changes
Anyone have a working fix for increased camera zoom? It seems like after 19 years blizzard has finally patched it out of the game completely now?
Hello , i am trying to cast sequence the assa opener but i have some trouble when i proc and i have to press ambush instead of mutilate. How can tell my macro to press ambush if there is a proc here ?


Should I play assassination or Sub? Which is harder to play
I'm still lookin! Hopefully the flavour text is correct!
we can use 2x nick of time at same time ?
yes, it's very good
you can't
in a normal macro
/cast mutilate will auto-ambush because it gets replaced
but in a cast-sequence that doesn't work cause it looks for mutilate, can't find it, and the sequence breaks
no way around it
uh
ok, so need 1 more xd
np
what's considered difficult is different for everyone. General consensus atm is probably that they're about the same, but assassination is slightly easier in single target, and harder in aoe
but really if the rotation clicks with you
then it clickks
sim is saying to craft ring over life-bound bindings but it's not letting me put the toxic patch on the bindings for the sim.... do I just craft the bindings?
"not letting me put the toxic patch on the bindings"
what's that mean
should let you do that through the + menu
any good wa for nation?
