Hard to learn the spec in a dungeon that insta dies

#

Unless using doomblade where does the extra damage from mutilate over ambush come from?

slim pebble
#

Best thing you can do is read your talents and try to do your rotation but shits gonna die so fast

oak tangle
#

don't look too much into the numbers, for instance, you see 8ish energy per second lost, but venemous wounds is 28 gain per second. best to just follow the guide šŸ™‚

the % chance of applying the poison?

Yeah thats kinda why I'm here. I'm trying to learn certain things.

Branch is our best trinket by a mile

FYI All if you were going to do timewalking for a chance at tier

wise gull
# oak tangle do you have 4 piece myth track

No, but there are two hands options + one shoulders from early mythic bosses. Much better chance of getting those from raid in the next few weeks but the neck wouldn't have a chance of being replaced until tindral

Today is the day when last boss in Dotl:Fall parried all 3 my KB.

And shiv

#

In a row

#

If you're playing with AP & cast Shiv on the same target, will it automatically spread to targets that don't already have the debuff?

look, maybe it is an easy push week, but you know what.. i dont have FUN playing spiteful, it just makes me sad

No re stealth is aids

!restealth

prisma monolithBOT
#

Long In-depth explanation of why restealths aren't as important as you might think:
https://youtu.be/DoZDPFk_Zog
The TLDW (I understand, it's LONG):

  • Garrote does roughly 14% of your damage overall in a key. This means from 100% improved garrote uptime to 0% improved garrote uptime, you would be losing 4.6% of your overall damage
  • This is compounded by the fact that you simply do not lose that many restealths
  • You still have vanish and in 10.2, shadow dance, which gives you MANY options to get your stealth effects
  • This has been supported by logs and by simulations, for many years
burnt venture
#

Have to dance to spread IC this week

velvet ridge
#

ok, does this factor in the GCDs lost from IC

heady drum
#

it really sounds like an old comment but i might be wrong

ONLY YOU DEGENERATES COULD COMPLAIN ABOUT A VOLCANIC SPITEFUL WEEK

i see top assa rogues using sophic devotion on their weapons but whispyr said in wowhead guide to use wrafting bla bla the haste buff

#

which one is better?

burnt venture
#

Why should we be erect?

slate crown

hexed willow

So they may be switching to sub and taking that into consideration

any ideas why LEs kingsbane visualiser isnt showing vanish at last 3 secs?

#

since updating it

hexed willow
runic hinge
#

It doesn't if you dont have vanish up

pulsar apex
#

i have vanish up

iron valve
#

Does 4pc change AoE priority at all? like more focus on envenoms into caustic, less focus on multibleeds?

finite echo
#

can you show screenshot of the vanish dropdown in config

bingo

"show without deathmark". ty ty

Short question, how i play the second kb and the second dm phase correctly? Or will it be explained in the vid from whisp?

slate crown
#

It's the same. It's the same buttons but you don't use DM or vanish

#

And you use it on cooldown

Is there an ideal piece of gear to change to tier? Like veteran/explorer/champ? What should I be aiming for.

frigid perch

#

Thank the robot

frigid perch
#

xD

gusty sleet
#

@waxen oyster Does that change if I don't have access to heroic raiding or higher end keys?

waxen oyster
#

whichever is highest ig?

finite echo
#

i mean if you cant do 17s then just put it on whatever you have

waxen oyster
#

hero track gear drops from 17s which isnt high idk

finite echo
#

because thats your only option

gusty sleet

Ohh okay, I'll have to look at a list of the order, but yeah, I'm lucky to get into 8s atm xD

champ is normal i think

i prob wouldnt even catalyze under champion unless

it sucks that my 2 highest ilvl weapons are both dreamcarvers, so i don't get free upgrades for other daggers

#

couple of questions for M+, if I am running non crimson tempest build without the fan talents, am I ever fanning or just mutilate for caustic?

oak tangle
#

there is literally only 4 daggers 2 of which are from raid. one of which is a unique equipped

storm ridge
#

!whispyr

waxen oyster
#

wait is tindral’s unique

slate crown
#

But still mutilate to get caustic up

placid snow
#

When playing AP do you just send Shiv on CD during aoe?

radiant garnet
#

Are people using hissing or buzzin runes?

finite echo
ionic matrix
sharp grove
waxen oyster
#

myth track sandglass and avoidance means i dont gotta deal with signet brand shenanigans

#

which is nice

ionic matrix
#

they run this

hexed willow
#

Because they have BM/boomie/havoc blowing up adds so they don’t need to. Any pugging or even a normal key group isn’t going to be doing that

burnt venture
ionic matrix
#

could be for sure

burnt venture
#

Don’t copy top .5% of rogues. They are running with dedicated group.

finite echo
#

this is correct @burnt venture

oak tangle
#

is my brain fried or is that legit the ST spec

hexed willow
#

Like not even runnnig IC is troll

oak tangle
#

it doesn't even have spatter

slim pebble
#

Zerocool always cooks up his own specs lol

hexed willow
#

It’s the ST build

#

Don’t follow the 0.5%

burnt venture
#

Or maybe they do run IB and just nuke bosses idk

slate crown
#

What you run with a dedicated coordinated group is different than what you'd run in lower pug keys

#

Especially for sin

#

our entire kit can be played around and managed by the group

burnt venture
#

Fuck following that build. 99.65% of keys you run, you want CT or AoE talents.

waxen oyster
#

theres also the possibility

#

of people logging out in raid spec

oak tangle
#

like i guess if you are pulling an entire room onto a boss, but there is no reason not to take spatter in that case

ionic matrix
finite echo
#

you dont iron wire in raid

oak tangle
#

the build he linked does not have iron wire

finite echo
#

also zerocool logs

ionic matrix
#

that wasnt zerocool, was the second assassination

finite echo
#

the one i posted was

hexed willow
#

In either case, copying what they do is kinda foolish

burnt venture
#

Either way. Don’t copy that build

#

It’s shit

ionic matrix
#

zerocool ran this

#

aoe but no crimson

limber lion
#

So what

burnt venture
#

A sin rogue running that build is there to nuke bosses and do lmfao shit AoE. He watches DH/BM huntard/Boomy nuke AoE. He carries boss. If your group isn’t that then don’t copy

ionic matrix
#

yeah makes sense

limber lion
#

Zerocool is dumb and doesn't follow sims or anything

#

he just does feelcraft

burnt venture
#

His name literally says

#

Zero

#

Cool

#

So like šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

limber lion
#

You can literally play almost any kind of build in m+ as long as you take IC, KB and Spatter

#

you just need to do 10000000 keys a season with a premade group

burnt venture
limber lion
#

you don't need to be good at the game or play the most optimal build

burnt venture
#

Exactly ^

manic rock
#

He was playing that last week

limber lion
#

you just need to play a shit ton

#

with a group

finite echo
manic rock
#

because no one gives a shit about trash on tyran

pulsar apex
#

why are we caring what zerocool does? genuine question. no idea who he is.

ionic matrix
#

ok, so if I do run crimson, are you spamming it over envenom, or just keeping the bleed up and then envenom spam

limber lion
wide ferry
#

For embellishments, i already have the toxic patch on my wrist for the thorn boots, and i am seeing blue silken lining as snother strong one. Is that only applicable to a crafted piece of gear? I am trying for all bis and looking to see what piece to craft and put it on

limber lion
#

Literally anyone can push high ranks if you play the game with a premade group for 20 hours a day like he does

#

and has done for 2 years

hexed willow
#

You apply it after your setup

So what you guys are saying is that you don't have any friends?

#

literally the worst covenant in the game

#

by far

burnt venture
#

I’ll hold judgment until I run into the lad

limber lion
#

he's just trolling because it literally doesn't matter

#

100 dps one way or the other

#

but then we have to deal with it in here

finite echo
#

how dare he play the game with a bit of nuance

#

i, personally, am making wow forum posts at this very minute

oak tangle
#

every time someone asks something about why zerocool does something, it should be forced tagged and he has to answer rather than people here trying to figure out why

limber lion
#

We had a similar thing for JPC back in 9.0

#

Because he kept saying that you shouldn't rupture targets in AoE because it's a damage loss

#

And it definitely wasn't

#

in any sense of the word

dark token
#

But he's a pro player

limber lion
#

So we had people come here asking about it several times a day

#

We just ended up filtering the name entirely

dark token
#

Skill at playing =/= skill at analysis or theorycrafting

limber lion
#

Now JPC is mad chilling and he comes to us and asks us what the best builds are and asks for sim help

#

He was washed, but now he's a homie

oak tangle
#

and there's still questions about branch, and why he's not using one

dark token
#

Pro teams have braniac analysts who tell em what to do for a reason

dark token
oak tangle
#

no i know, but that doesn't stop people asking

hexed willow
#

Which was

indigo sinew
#

does anyone know if its worth rupturing low hp mobs to get giga energy regen when they die?

limber lion
#

I think there's very very niche situations where Rupture sniping with Sudden Demise is fine

storm forum
#

I didn't hear the reasoning, was it just not wanting another thing to track in the hardest boss fights in the game?

dark token
# hexed willow Which was
  1. branch is more personal dmg for ur character but ashes is more burst dmg in an Aug buffed window which results in more dmg for the Aug/raid overall
  2. it's much easier and less aids to play on these mechanically challenging last 2-3 bosses
limber lion
#

But generally not really the play

indigo sinew
#

ah oke

dark token
#

He said "branch will be a good m+ or parse trinket but I wouldn't use it for RWF"

storm forum
#

Interesting

indigo sinew
#

ive been doing it because it feels good but ig i wont anymore

storm forum
#

I've been using ashes cause I just can't be asked to farm everbloom when I'm still trying to farm fall.

tall jay
#

Just got my 4pc today…looks like I might be able to do decent dps now lol

night copper
#

tried to search - couldn't find a clear answer. When doing rotation, obviously hit branch with deathmark, but should i forcefully pick up the orbs to get the mastery faster or should i just let them float in? the timing is weird with the last tick of kingsbane

limber lion
#

Then you stall the third one for 7+ seconds

hexed willow
storm forum
#

Pick up two orbs asap, wait 7 seconds for the 3rd

oak tangle

do lfr for the week

timber patrol

yes

oak tangle
#

before choosing

timber patrol
#

ohhh thats a really smart decision

runic hinge
#

Maybe do your 5 tw as well

timber patrol
#

in the case i dont loot any of those which one would be better?

runic hinge
#

sim angle

storm forum
#

Sim it, but I would expect the tier

oak tangle
#

i think tier, because a 4 piece gonna be big, and it'll let you play around with the latest tech

plain onyx
#

guys, is the Arterial M+ build ST rotation is somehow the same one for Raid (dance) one ?

manic rock
#

does the tier get you to 2pc or 4pc

timber patrol
#

would be 1st pc havent crated any

oak tangle
#

tier also looks sick, so mog angle

manic rock
#

I would go for the trinket

timber patrol
#

ty

manic rock
#

though if you're into it you'll be running a lot of fall anyways

storm forum
#

If you don't get tier from lfr or weekly box, I think tier set. Cause you can farm a trinket but you can't farm tier

manic rock
#

so trinket just might drop there

#

you can get 2pc tier from farming this week

blazing totem
#

got this while playing outlaw, do I switch now? KEKL

oak tangle
# timber patrol ty

if you get a tier token from raid this week, you'll have 4 piece if you take the tier from vault

#

and use your 2 catalyst charges

fervent sundial
#

My head hurts looking at this sim, can i get some advice on what to take for the vault

limber lion
#

Whatever is the highest

#

so the cloak

#

:)

#

Irideus Fragment does not sim correctly so you def wanna ditch that

fervent sundial
#

Ok

#

that's the part that's confusing

limber lion
#

Technically the biggest upgrade would be taking pip and using pip + sandglass

fervent sundial
#

I mean yeah i'm rring so it's just what i have till i run funnel heroic later with guild and then run m+ after

limber lion
#

but you can get a better trinket than that probs

manic rock
fervent sundial
#

It's a normal pip, versus 483 haste mastery cloak

#

yeah that's fair

limber lion
#

Just take the cloak and get a branch from mythic+

after deathmark

I’m trying to craft the toxic boots and I’m finding it to be a little expensive. How bad is using t2 scales ?

speaking of shiv do we use inbetween kbs at all or just hold both

You want to collect 2, then the third one when kb has less than 9 seconds

that’s incredibly useful to know, thank you

How is the rotation complexity for assassination, compared to Outlaw (for PvE)?

true rapids

its comparable but outlaw does more dmg

#

y'all gonna be the end of me, staying up till 6 am chatting in here

#

Before 4 set you would try to maintain above a certain amount of energy to maintain sanguine blades uptime. After 4 set you pool energy to maintain envenom uptime

short quarry
#

rogue discord is hoppin

loud brook
#

Since casting envenom while you have the buff makes it do more damage

it is 5:40 am on a rainy Wednesday

does it matter if you macro KB into SD or SD into KB? does it matter which one goes off first? Thinking I macro SD into KD being that SD doesn't have a GCD?

Sudden demise dmg doesn't matter tho, it just shows what you would've done anyways for a sim. It only matters for time safe in an actual key

This is sin

balmy condor
# hexed willow Valid point right there. Sometimes I feel like their analysis is magic

their analysis is very smart, because they are very smart people, but there's nothing data wise that they inherently see that we cant. It's always crazy to me when people are like "oh they have internal numbers for this kind of stuff". Do they? How? If they had ways to filter out power infusion or fix aug hooks, they would've just added it to the combat log. There's no reason for them to see the issue, come up with a fix for it, and then hold it internally while all the combat log data stays bad. Then they'd take all that bad combat log data.... and???? We assume it gets filtered then? But cleaning up the combat log AFTERWARDS is so much harder than just cleaning it up as it happens live, and you don't need to work with the data twice and it's less work. Idk, like any sensible programmer is having a seizure trying to have that argument make sense
