mystic osprey
#

and our uptime

forest notch
#

ya

#

figured as much

fallen knoll
#

What the hell are you cooking

mystic osprey
#

because garrote is typically our #1 damage

#

@runic hinge the no scent build I sent earlier is bis apparently but it dont make sense to me

#

I tried tiny toxic instead of DTB but its not better

runic hinge
#

Because I like ap and dtb and wanna figure out them together. And since it’s keys you kinda need ic and obviously KB is goated

slate crown
#

Can you link the sim?

flint tusk
#

People need to bare in mind sudden demise proc isn’t calculated in sims.

runic hinge
#

Agreed. It’s hard to get things on the right when I want everything at the bottom on the left

mystic osprey
#

it should make this easier

#

do you want AMP>

#

I feel like no scent of blood should be a dps loss tho

#

idk why its not simming like that

runic hinge
#

No shrouded is definitely dps loss

mystic osprey
#

yeah

#

-20 percent on garrote dmg is massive

#

im gonna do some more simming

runic hinge
#

Listen I’d give it a shot but dtb without amp is so Weirdege

fallen knoll
#

Dslice sims are pretty weird so you should probably try it on dummies or sum, that build has to perform worse

mystic osprey
#

thats what I was thinking as well

#

and then I saw someone using it on a 22

#

doing 1.3m burst and doing 250k overall

#

im running another sim on a couple of builds

runic hinge
#

I might give it a shot

#

Because it doesn’t look terrible minus no amp lol

mystic osprey
#

no iron wire is pretty shit for the dungeon group but im gonna test a build without it

runic hinge
#

That’s the only thing

#

No scent too.

fallen knoll
#

Do you have the vod

mystic osprey
#

yeah

#

ill send it to you

forest notch
#

50-60 parses decent considering im like 10ivl below the norm? or should I be higher ideally

mystic osprey
#

heres a 240k overall tott

#

I hope this dont count as promotion

runic hinge
#

It’s not your video is it?

mystic osprey
#

nope

runic hinge
#

Probably not then

mystic osprey
#

well if I get muted we know why

runic hinge
#

😂

mystic osprey
#

the build that guys using is coming out on top of dslice everytime

runic hinge
#

I’ll try it tomorrow in my morning key

mystic osprey
#

im simming it one more time

#

yeah

#

im gonna try a key with this build

kind hare
#

Do I have to maintain 5 ruptures in envenom chains?

mystic osprey
kind hare
#

After IC?

mystic osprey
#

when bleeds fall of apply again

kind hare
#

Imo i deal more smg just chaining envenoms in aoe

#

Ok I will keep practicing this

#

And garrote only once right? I mean when all cds are down

whole mason
#

why put your faith in scent

mystic osprey
#

try spread garrote when you can

whole mason
#

scent imho not very strong

mystic osprey
willow barn
#

How man rupture do we aktually apply

mystic osprey
willow barn
#

I mean aoe m+ we rly dot all?

vestal wren
# mystic osprey

try to sim vs.
BMQAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEJJJhEEAAAAAASJJSLJAAAAAAgWSCSgkkSaJRERkEJRSTJSAA

whole mason
#

as a burst spec, 20% agi is probably ok on power level but very situational for a whole key unless you find a way to get 5ruptures all the time

#

that's perhaps why sim does not like it

mystic osprey
#

if you need to do damage quick get kb up as fast a possible

runic hinge
forest notch
#

CD timings feel bad on Nymue

#

I guess DM/KB on pull, KB on add?

whole mason
#

when you sim Dslice, there aren't that many combat we have that multiple targets surviving long enough

royal lantern
fallen knoll
royal lantern
#

like you said

dm+kb on nymue, solo KB on add

#

thats the entire fight for you cd wise

#

nymue is almost perfect for assa timings lol

runic hinge
#

I need to not get stunned on that fight. My brain just doesn’t see those things. Look too much like the floor

royal lantern
#

tbh

#

check colorblind setting

runic hinge
#

Probably should

jade abyss
#

How you play everbloom endboss? Sendind dm and all the stuff on add or only kb?

whole mason
royal lantern
#

reminder that 1 in 12 Men has some form of colorblindness/color weakness, most just dont know it

#

try out colorblind aids

fallen knoll
#

Only men?

royal lantern
#

yes

#

for women its 1 in 100

fallen knoll
royal lantern
#

its WAY more common in men

mystic osprey
#

I dont think im colour blind

whole mason
#

that's unfortunately true

runic hinge
jade abyss
#

Men are playong to much games in there childhood thats the reason starege

forest notch
#

but ya outside of that

mystic osprey
#

yo @vestal wren

#

your build simmed well

stable atlas
mystic osprey
#

it just doesnt have iron wire

#

idk why this sims good

#

but it sims good

royal lantern
# fallen knoll Only men?

if you wanna know why, tl:dr genetics time:

colorblindess/weakness is a genetic mutation in our X chromosomes

for men too have it, only the X chromosomes need too have it because men have 1 X and 1 Y

for women it needs too be on both X chromosomes, so its WAY more rare

jade abyss
vestal wren
mystic osprey
#

only problem

royal lantern
#

which is kinda cringe

mystic osprey
#

its pretty troll

runic hinge
royal lantern
#

no IW lol

vestal wren
#

it was the highest simming one i found

fallen knoll
mystic osprey
#

yeah

#

but you gotta help the team

neat plank
#

yeah those builds aren't meant to be "best builds", just highest simming ones

royal lantern
jade abyss
fallen knoll
#

Dmg = king?

#

In low keys maybe

vestal wren
runic hinge
# royal lantern check colorblind setting

I use colorblind settings on some games just to make things easy. I’m not sure I’m colorblind super bad but like light blue on green and it’s just not popping into my brain that I need to avoid that. Maybe I’m just too focused on WA

mystic osprey
vestal wren
#

e.g. not taking iron wire is kinda meh, it is as strong as stunning secret, if not even stronger

vestal wren
runic hinge
#

Iron wire is crazy strong.

fervent marsh
#

Guys anyone can send that picture about nerfs predictions?

#

about DH and assa single nerf

runic hinge
#

Silence and damage reduction on top. Gotta have it

runic hinge
#

I predict we don’t get touched because we’re perfectly balanced.

mystic osprey
#

this build has done a +26 and is the highest key

whole mason
#

not sure why ppl predict assa's nerf.

vestal wren
#

alright, picture of the nerfs, i put a lot of effort into making this

whole mason
#

lots of specs were top due to PI

runic hinge
mystic osprey
#

226 of the top 3k use it

whole mason
mystic osprey
#

im gonna sim it

vestal wren
#

interessting build tho

vestal wren
runic hinge
#

It does really good damage but you gotta be running with like a dh and stuff to kill trash for you

mystic osprey
#

DH

fallen knoll
#

If you got a strong aoe group sure you can go pretty much full st

mystic osprey
#

yeah only problem with sin is that if you got a high aoe group you got no dmg

#

it sucks

#

at least in low keys

#

even at high keys though when dh do 1m+ burst along with hunters instantly what can you do

fallen knoll
#

It's a mixed bag, in low keys shit just dies too fast before you ramp up yeah, but the initial dmg is there, and if you get a target to kb like the first packs in brh you're clappin

faint birch
#

hey guys, anyone can advice how to do an opener? also we apply shiv and envenom before or after the kingsbane cast?

neat plank
mystic osprey
#

no ct simmed above AP

runic hinge
#

I mean if shit is dying idc my overall. Also I just avoid sending cds into first pack cause everyone else does and then I can slam second pack solo

mystic osprey
faint birch
faint birch
#

Thank you hehe

mystic osprey
#

we go from stealth and spread garrote rupture, if you need more bleed send CT earlier, then we go slice and dice, envenom (sometimes I mutilate before bc of caustic spatter), deathmark, shiv, SD + KB, shiv at 7 seconds, thistle at 6 and vanish at 3 if youre doing straight st

#

apart from that its mainly just priority

#

honestly though im sort of looking into outlaw rogue because it does burst damage way quicker

#

and sin is probably gonna get nerfed hardcore like shadow priest

fallen knoll
#

Isn't outlaw giga dependent on rng or something

mystic osprey
#

sorta

#

its also how quickly you can click shit

fallen knoll
#

I've never played anything else besides sin and a bit of sub but heard that outlaw is like playing slots, mashing buttons and hoping for the best

frigid cedar
#

where can i find nice plater for assasination m+ keys?

#

its a bit hard to see ruptures on big packs

#

garrotes mroe importantly

Outlaw is 0.2% more rng than sin Okay

mystic osprey

I used to love dots but im sorta getting annoyed about dots

runic hinge
fallen knoll
#

Used to play a bit of fdk in s2 and obliteration was hella fun, I can definitely see your point

runic hinge
#

But people think it’s less because it’s just 2 seconds instead of RTB

how stupid are outlaw rogues

forest notch

if lusting first intermission on smold should I save DM and just use KB on pull ?

faint birch
#

do we somehow play around sanguine blades on single target?

fallen knoll
#

No

#

!pooling

prisma monolithBOT
#

Read About Pooling
Video
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

If you're 2+2 then yeah

#

Kinda miss poisoned edges that thing was clappin in m+

mystic osprey
#

yeah

faint birch
#

So with 4P i am just trying to keep envenom buff as much as possible while refreshing it with 1s or less remaining?

pls give heroic betrayers cinderblade

faint birch

how does chaining the envenom helps the 4p though

arctic tusk
#

can someone post the shitty image of witerbark branch

#

usage

simple ore
faint birch
#

ah, makes sense, thank you

simple ore
#

you keep chaining so you never drop the buff while also pooling energy

fallen knoll
faint birch
#

didnt notice the video was just reading, thanks

no its a paint image

and how to use it

Is there a way we can get the devs to remove Recuperator. I get they don't want us to take Acrobatic Strikes, but its just terrible.

To have acro in a worse plsce

It was on purpose

What’s the best sim time window currently for assin? Is it still 5 min?

Realz was asking if anyone knew the conditions for why it wasn’t healing and I said it stopped after you vanished but he wanted more info and maybe some logs

#

This was a few weeks ago

at least he knows about it, i guess

still just a piece of garbage

we are talking 200dps in a sim

when all our gameplay is around kb

it realyl doesent matter

bru don't bm 😉 ofc i did some other fails and my priest was dead for the last burst at 6mn, but still looking what i can improve for minmax

twilit hollow
#

200 dps is a rounding error. You can rng more dps than that in a good pull. Focus the basics

peak lake
#

was just wondering why i did 5m less on the same number of kb when im pressing same spells at same moment exept for mut / ambush (and ofc he got lucky with poison app on kb burst)

do you prefer defensives, do you wanna restealth more for iron wire/bleeds?

fallen knoll

Isn't the best horde version troll

#

Not sure

simple ore

for burst damage maybe, but I think tauren is better overall damage

forest notch
#

and with the bleeds this league

#

I will probably have to remain dwarf

simple ore
#

it sounds to me more like you're just finding any reason to swap off dwarf

so do it

Hello to the rogues - Venge DH tank main here. First tier tanking properly in keys and I've had a few assas rogues comment on not being able to 're-stealth' between packs and it being a net dps loss for the group over the course of a key.

This week is obviously a lot worse for re-stealth with spiteful, but how much/often (if at all) should I wait for combat to fully expire before pulling the next pack to accomodate a Sin rogues stealth? (for arguments sake lets say I'm playing with a Mage and a Lock who are ready to blast next pack immediately)

The fact that every other player in the group can blast the next pack, and not have time idle seems like a no brainer, but the assas rogues seem to think otherwise. Can anyone give a non bias view?

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

only reason I'd ever consider waiting for restealth is for more iron wires

as long as you dont chain pull when the last mob has like 10% hp left its fine imo

"gives your attacks/abilities/spells a chance to leave a debuff on your target that deals a portion of it's damage a 2nd time after 3 seconds."

When im in "Stealth" mod (Vanish, dance, leaving stealth etc) Should I always Ambush > Mutilate? (I guess outside of AOE situations if I want Splatter, unless ambush also triggers splatter)

Read About Pooling
Video
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

I played spatter on volcoross too

the difference between getting pi from healer and from shadow is like playing a different spec

guys dont forget to spam poisoned knife

We had on our realm some wanna be top 20 guild disbanded on smolderon

#

We milked their enha so I'm happy

royal lantern

allready getting sick of it

gaunt moat
#

Last volocross kill i had 13% wafting devotion proc.
Was 3rd on DPS.
IT WAS INSULTING.

#

But yeah, they said they wanna make sin be more skill expression.
Feels even more RNG expression.

#

The variance between pulls is immense.

icy acorn
#

how much skill does it take to send the same rotation of buttons every 1 and 2 mins

grand trail
#

A lot

icy acorn
#

a lot if KB doesnt crit kekdog

grand trail

When you play branch all skill in the world

royal lantern

take some dmg out of KB and put it somewhere else

do sanguine blades if you wanna jerk off the SkIlLeXpReSsIoN fanatics

like man

#

kb doing dmg? sure

the spec turning into kingsbane? fuck no

Assa players doing DMG = cry assay players not doing DMG = cry

Can someone explain why when i top Gear sim, ashes trinket is simming so low but simming so high on bloodmallet ?

gaunt moat
#

Pretty sure we got only until the 5th to do damage catPOG

the only thing i realized while playing assa is realizing that pi should be removed

Yeah pi is fuck up

#

We have one

royal lantern
grand trail
#

Idk I don't mind kb

royal lantern

and ye, fuck pi

grand trail

It feel like sectech use to for sub

#

the difference between pi and no pi is way too big imo

grand trail
#

One pi two rogues

gaunt moat
#

The difference is like 5.3% I think?

icy acorn
#

or with an unholy dk and one healer pi and one shadow pi

grand trail
#

Idk about % buts it's like 10k on normal fight

icy acorn
#

shadow pi = peophammer

grand trail
#

10k out of 240

#

Or 12k

#

This branch trinket is no joke, I popped it and than boss get moved and half way in opener I realize I pickup 0 orbs and had to sprint back

#

On larodar

icy acorn
#

my condolences F_

#

always feels bad having to actually move while branch orbs are active

grand trail
#

Yeah man fuck this trinket

#

But I have only normal ashes sadge

icy acorn
#

hc ashes is simming like 4k less than branch for me

#

but its just way easier to use

willow scroll
#

is there a damage modifier in fall that can cause unnatural dmg numbers?

#

in a pack or a boss fight

icy acorn
#

endboss at the end

#

has a dmg amp

#

i think

willow scroll
#

okey cause a rogue ticked 1.1mil kingsbane but wasnt that much geared more so wanted to check

fallen knoll

Iridikron haste amp, that's about it in fall

Just play branch better

just play perfectly?pepeclown

And I think it only matters to have 3 stacks most of kb

#

It's kinda easy to play on early bosses

#

But last 3 can be tricky

subtle tundra
#

Smolderon was easy to play

icy acorn
#

smolderon will be the only time im willing to play sub

subtle tundra
#

Tindral mythic is impossible to use on pull

icy acorn
#

after that i wont ever touch sub again

subtle tundra
#

Nah smolderon assa is pretty close to sub

grand trail
#

Smolderon I don't care about pick up timings for orbs at all

#

Yay playing Assa on smolderon and stealing pi from others

#

Big yay

faint path
#

They should nerf bm hunter before rogue and dh

subtle tundra
#

How is it stealing

icy acorn
#

yeah but you dont need pi

#

and thats always good

#

and sub basicly plays itself on smolderon

grand trail
#

I give pi to hunter on smolderon im ethical gamer

icy acorn
#

+100 credit score

subtle tundra
#

If you play sub on smolderon and you hate sub you're just a poser

#

Not a real assa

surreal citrus
#

I will never play sub 😩

icy acorn
#

i take any chance getting off of pi

grand trail
#

Where were those real assa last tier on progress

surreal citrus
#

i will however flip flop between ass and outlaw

grand trail

I saw none

subtle tundra

I enjoy playing all spec I don't care

subtle tundra
#

Well we are in assa channel, I'll call you a poser

grand trail
#

But my brain is kinda melted after playing Assa this tier so sub feel hard all sudden

icy acorn
#

wasnt assa actually better than sub last tier

fallen knoll
grand trail
#

It was

icy acorn
#

i just have some dmg graphs in memory that had sub as the second worst dps spec for the raid

#

idk

grand trail
#

I mean our RL don't give a fuck what spec you like you play what's better and thats how I like it too

icy acorn
#

you should always play what you like imo

#

its a game and most of us are not going for a rwf

#

so lets just have fun while playing it lmao

fallen knoll
#

Ever since legion I didn't switch from sin once, no matter how bottom of the barrel we were, I just enjoy playing it

icy acorn
#

i enjoyed sub until the rework
now assa feels like the pre rework sub with longer cooldowns + pooling

#

just send your cds and dont think about it too much Surebud

grand trail
#

That's fine too tho

#

I told our second rogue to play assa on smolderon if he can't handle sub

icy acorn
#

valid point but sub on smolderon is actually playable
send everything on pull with 1 vanish and then send on every intermission with vanish after first sectec in flag windows

grand trail
#

True

#

It's very simple

#

As you do no DMG outside opener and intermission

#

You can do mechanics very easy and you have acro and better defensive

#

Cloak for every intermission and so on

icy acorn
#

yeah, i wish sub would play every fight like that

#

sadly it doesnt

grand trail
#

Yeah

#

Hopefully will play sub on tindral too

icy acorn
#

what makes tindral so ass for assa

vestal wren
#

I don't remember but I think some of the rogues played sin on it in the wfr

icy acorn
#

didnt echo stick to assa and liquid went with sub or something like that?

#

on fyrakk as well

#

Opposite

Just looking at a higher parse log than my own and noticed this. When I start my KB + Dance I usually use that time to apply an empowered garrot and Rupture but it seems this guy for exmple jsut does Ambush + Envenom, repeat. Is this waht we should be doing?

does larodar have a damage amp phase

Also are these just blindside procs? Or does shadowstep give stealth? (I couldnt find anything that says it does)

Empowered rupture is not a huge dps increase worth playing around

I remember a number being thrown around, something like 100 dps?

love all this wowhdead comments about "nerf assa to the ground"

poor DH fanboys don't want to share the top spot

more like a 3-5% aura nerf

or kb/dmg nerf or something liike that

# fallen knoll

assa is really good, but it wouldnt outclass everything so hard if aug and pi wouldnt exist

cursive owl
#

do we refresh garrote and rupture in kb window with the dmg buff ? while at start, or do we do this at the end where u press vanish once, im currently stuck figuring out if spamming envenom during kb is more worth than refreshing garrot and rupture with extra buff

surreal citrus

iirc the rogue specs are p close without externals no?

icy acorn
#

to keep it simple

zenith hatch
#

Is whispyr around? dont want to @ him if he is sleepin

dw other classes stayed ahead of the curve thanks to pi/aug for months, so im sure we get nerfed after 3weeks smilemk

I feel like externals are probably just really hard to balance around

Make pi personal

make pi applyable to priest only

I'm primarily a shaman player who has long since accepted that it's usually only allowed one decent spec per expansion so it's always funny to see locks or mages complain that they're only top 5 instead of top 1/2
