They're intentionally playing bad sometimes so they don't get nerfed
mages been downplaying since vanilla
Guys
firemage is not top3 for 2weeks?
ignite dmg increased by 20%
fireball dmg increased by 15%
flamestrike dmg increased by 10%
pyroblast dmg increased by 10%
EVERY.SINGLE.TIME
its like a clockwork
In Whispyr ST opener video I saw him using mutilate in opener when ambush already gave him 4CP. Also, never saw him using 4CP, he always buid for more. Am I missing something here?
in opener you want 5+ cp for envenom
That one BEFORE DM+KB or during entire opener sequence?
It's a super super super minor thing to do the opener slightly differently (i.e. using ambush vs mutilate during dance), and you want to ensure your first envenom is 5+, otherwise you might lose a tiny bit of env uptime during kb.
Wait, we do 5+ Envenom before the DM+Shiv+SD+KB?
yeah so you have the buff up pre kb
Ideally you want to envenom first for the buff
and long enough for you to refresh it before it falls off
yeah, i also only realized that yesterday lol
Oki doki, thanks! Didn't know about that
Yeah, I think that is even said transparently in wowhead guide. I just dont know should I finish with more than 4CP during entire opening sequence, so both envenoms before and during DM+KB sequence
i think only during DM sequence
Or just that Envenom before DM+KB
once you have the kb running you can follow the 4+ rule
Ok
because you dm - shiv - kb - garrote - mutilate - envenom
And we do Envenom at 4 or more CP? š®
and without dm 4cp timing should suffice
yeah, that thing
yes
4 is sliiiiightly better
But that's only in the KB window or we use that rule even outside of it?
the first 5+ envenom is just to make sure it doesn't fall off when you DM + shiv + kb
but again... dont focus too much on it, its not like youre suddenly gonna drop 5k dps by using an accidental 5cp one
that too
always 4+
(except the first one in opener)
but even that
if you use a 4+ instead

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
its a barely noticeable difference
Damn, thanks guys. It seems I was using outdated rotation during the raids 
On his video he is pushing for more during DM
if you did 5+ instead, you probably did a whole 500dps less because of it
btw with "uncomforable to chain" does it mean "i barely have enough energy to barely hold the chain last second"?
its more like...
4cp envenom into having to refresh garrote into 2cp mutilate
technically you can still hit that new envenom after another mutilate in the initial envenom's window, but its better to just pool at that point
the situation you described is the same. basically, whenever youd have to refresh the envenom during the last 0.2sec or so, you may wanna just hold and start fresh after taking a shower
pooling is actually really fun
just take your hands off the keyboard and mouse for like 15 sec
technically it was always a gain, its just the first time since bfa that we do it for more than just a miniscule dps increase
how do you use witherbark's branch? does kb do some weird mastery snapshot so get all 3 orbs before kb or do you get your 3rd orb refresh during the last 10s of kb?
thats pretty much what i have been doing, thanks
dagger didnt fucking drop

Does it ever? š¦
It was actually a fun ass boss
imagine blizzard also putting in sanctum of domination for fated s4 in DF
just so we can get that JUICY dagger
as you can see i have a lot of copium in my blood
yes for shooting cockroaches in dungeons, waiting for people to insert key
8/9H
any1 have an idea how to make it last forever? it turns off all the time and im not a plater expert
V
ach well ye ty
yea i do it but still man its pain š
Been a painful two weeks
ye I forgot what stealthing between packs feel like this week
at least spiteful is hella energy refunds from rupture
I ran a few 18's with that non-CT build. It's surprisingly not terrible. Boss damage is insane. But I still think the actual m+ builds are probably just better.
I thought about trying to do something with poison bomb
Yeah it has poison bomb
I mean it sims better in dslice but i dunno
marginally better
All the homies hate the shades
Any decent tank i had - and the pulls are big enough that the shades are just dealt with - and i've been getting restealths anyway
I think having a BM in the group helps or something
yeah so shades probably aren't really a thing to you
But hey at least like I still do boss damage
I always either kidney mine, or evasion tank like 2-3 of them if the situation calls for that.
if I was running with bm and dh I'd definitely just focus on boss damage tbh
Oh no they still are because the tanks I get with like to chain pull
Like council in everbloom, we were able to kill telu or whatever before the first revitalize even
I think I was at like 550k and the BM was at 450k dps on it
That was in an 18
Is there a BIS items sim like 10.1?
I think the bloodmallet profile probably has BIS?
My sim for st seems high
what's it at
lol yeah that's up there
I just think there's something to be said for sin's boss dmg with the non-CT build, even on fort weeks.
Anyone got a like to notters kb wa?
Appreciate you
The different weeks dont really shift what you need as much as people think. Also the non ct build doesnt run scent or demise iirc, which is pretty awkward
yeah definitely no demise.
I could have some cooked version of it though, i dunno. I just looked up people's builds on io to try it
I think it's the opposite
Although technically the hybrid build should result in more st
I just feel energy starved in the hybrid build (or at least I did)
Oh ye, its from the #1 key spaming rogue 
The AP VR BS build has more ST, the other one more aoe iirc
yeah - but the other one should have bigger KB's (with DTB and more poison application)
right?
guys am i doing something wrong? I make 80-90k dps in 2-3 min fights in m+..i have 2364mastery.. :l
DTB feels bad if your tank goes monkey mode and does dog pulls
lol what's your ilvl
Though I do miss having slow poison in the AP build
Iāve hot-swapped to it sometimes instead of numbing
Probably. But you got execute and more amped DMs on the AP one
460
š sorry
I was gonna say you should be doing the main story campaign
yeah 460 is getting up there.
yeah 460 š
Our dmg in kingsbane/opener is huge so make sure you're getting that right
seems to start fading after that until the next KB at 1 min then picks back up a little
Is there a wa that highlights shiv or thistle tea during kingsblade so I donāt have to look at a timer 
I'd just look at your numbers compared to the people you're in the keys with
I feel like LE's probably does

search notter in wago
fire and dh overperfom me
look at his one-off ones
as always
Well dh is just going to do that in aoe
Anyways
but in singletarget too
I'd say against DH - you should be like 20-30% under them on big packs.
On bosses you should be like 30% above them
rough estimates
assuming same ilvls
he is in 475
oh yeah no chance
and what do you think on this week how many % off bcs we cant stealth enough bcs the shades?
Only 20-30%? Man we fully pull everything up to the first boss in fall⦠itās definitely a lot more then that 
oh that pull is huge huh
we put some big numbers up on that too though
like 900k-1M right
i dunno what a good dh is at on that
dont know who dont nerf these fcking dhs or soft caps the auras or ragefire..
Why complain about that when we are absolutely busted st? By a mile
Any pull that is big - and we have a target that can live our DM/KB - we're probably top on that pull
so in keys i have to be top single target dmg?
Guess you didnt read up why
You will or should be top boss damage
And in m+ we arent really
You could explain
What stats are you guys going for? my sims tells me to stack vers+haste T_T like x2 haste+vers rings
I have 49% crit in my m+ build lol. I literally can't run out of energy - i think it's cause mut is like pretty much always 4 cp
Only 49%
assa logs are inflated rn cus they eat aug buffs in them
its vers strong yeha, but not nearly as insane as it looks on logs
Yāall get a Aug buff?
And in m+ build sin loses mucho st
dang that fire mage is pumpin
I mean, dh are getting Aug buffed too
yeha, but assa eats a big chunk of aug dmg on logs
Assa especially gets PI
Tbf the overall is pretty low on all of em
how are there lusts like 4 mins apart
I think WCL overall is different from what details shows though
Mages can bl for themself every 5min
can they do a "single lust" at pull - like if main lust is 5 mins in?
or do they HAVE to get lust on CD first
That's why they cry when they have to lust for the grp
ahh
they can personal lust - when they have debuff, but their lust isn't on cd
that makes sense
Iirc it doesnt go on CD as long as you dont have the debuff while using it
Oh thats sweet qol
I think itās because they accidentally double lust themselves in raid
Like if someone else presses it right before they do
Oh yeah
Feels so good to be "done with raiding" already this tier
Do we want 2 nick of times? I just got one and hoped the suffering ended
It's free real estate. And by real estate I mean damage.
Probably sim depending on ilvl, to be safe.
but yeah assuming equal ilvl nick is always just gonna be better i would imagine
It's like 0.7 to 1.1% per
If you're like me and have 1 hero nick and myth ad dagger, forget that place, besides ilvl beats it in that case (unless it's myth as well)
definitely offhand, for sure though - like ilvl probably has to be 20 higher for anything else to even remotely come close
MH lower iLvl Nick of Time can be beaten by higher iLvl other daggers. Offhand this is true too, but would be a more extreme iLvl diff.
Avih beat me to it. I need more coffee
Ahh ty
After 30x that dungeon I'm kinda done with it
yeah my oh is 476 i think - and i'm only replacing it if i random into a higher one, or get one in vault
I have 2 myth daggers, one of them is nick of time. A 2nd hero nick is still ~1300 dps gain for me 
Exactly. NoT in OH is pretty much a requirement. Reasonable iLvl be damned.
Probably the same for Outlaw too.
yeah i use my 476 oh as outlaw over a 486 dagger
but that 1.1% doesn't do much for me as outlaw
anyway
@blazing jewel send help
i'd need like 40%
I'm just holding my breath for the Dec 5th buff/nerf announcements
I'm playing Havoc main and Assassination as my primary alt. So I'm expecting a bad time.
I'm fairly new to the game is it possible blizzard will just completely ruin the class I'm investing in now?
I don't believe it will be completely ruined. They have been much better with that this expansion
the possibility always exists, but it's fairly unlikely. I give you like a 99.9% chance it's still absolutely playable lol
I don't even know honestly "how much of an outlier" assassination is honestly.
With PI, and aug stuff
nah
fotm andys just love to doom over everything as if its dead when its now 2% from beeing the best lol
DH is a more standout in keys, and maybe even BM.
I just hope they're not too heavy handed nerfing a spec due to it's imba interactions with PI, Aug, and broken Aug hooks
Because that's a PI and Aug problem and not an Assassination one.
blizz doesnt care about the broken aug hooks, they have the real numbers lol
Tried outlaw and I feel the carpal tunnel already
Sounds good
I'm going really hard into this game rn and that would bum me out pretty hard lol
they dont rely on a 3rd party tool for numbers
Havoc could use some tuning for AOE, but probably a buff to ST to go with it
sub is strong af, just all "the best" players are try-harding sin rn
If sin gets hit hard I'm playing outlaw
gross
ever played league (if the answer is yes, im sorry for you and hope you get over it) and how they always say X champ is TROLLING cus its not 54% winrate rn?
thats how fotm players in wow react too small nerfs that bring something in line 
@royal lantern ahh I get you lol
actually...
I'd quite like that
Outlaw should be a hunter
Imagine having a ranged rogue spec
Marksmanship rogue
Yeah, that was the tradeoff I wanted back when they made the Survival change to melee. A soul for a soul.
I play outlaw to but I feel sin is just so much more consistent on a intermediate lvl of play
if assa gets a hit, sub and outlaw need 1 aswell, espacialy outlaw which argurably allready pulls higher numbers
and yeha, if you just nuke assa/havoc/bm, you have enh/sub/outlaw doing almost the same numbers, people just somewhat "sleep" on those 3 rn
fight is sh*t for melee, just go ranged for that one - or something
oh yeah enh is no joke i agree 100
you never want too play melee rogue again huh? 
adding a ranged spec would instantly kill all melee options rogue has
its sich a horrible idea
remember how OP they had to make surv - just for people to play it
idl why people still bring it up
a man can dream, can't he
I played survival in 2004 but nobody knew wtf they were doing lmao
I'm ngl, my hunter surv spec - is still ranged.
It's like completely fine for world content and stuff
At least in 9.x
Quick question, do i need to spam mutilate or just chill?
I've played hunter for about 8 minutes this xpac (only cause i had a boost)...and 7 of those minutes were dragging spells to my bar and setting up my ui.
you understand the basics - that you build to enough CP then spend them right?
Survival has been really consistent since Shadowlands fated season. It's fun. It just gets a lot of hate because A. Hunter and B. Melee hunter

Mongoose Bite spam at 5 stacks and your Kul Tiran leaping into the air and screaming like a madman whilst swinging a spear was peak entertainment.
what does it mean to wait one second in order to proc tier, wouldn't you be spamming envenoms and not thinking about it being in pandemic?
What buff do I get from chaining ? Thereās literally nothing what shows me I chained right
If you are in KB/cds yes - but not outside of cd's no.
ah right
read the 4p
Envenomous Explosion
You don't "get a buff" from chaining - you get "Envenom buff" from Envenoming - and then Envenoming (while that buff is present) procs the 4p.
When is next class tuning coming ?
wowhead says the Fyrakk trinket is not that good but when doing mythic it does decent damage?
It doesnt have main stat tho
im 455 item lvl so not that high yet but still was wondering because it sometimes doe less sometimes way more
because it s fully crit dependant and rng depednant if i understood the trinket well
i just think it s another DH trinket, once again 15% of their dps is a passiv equipped slot

Remind me of xymox cache as sub in gambit, spamming bp and having trinket 1st source of dmg. Good old times
yeah that augury pumps in m+ in my experience lol
Dh 3 button + passive trinket half of the their damage what a good class š
Omg am I an idiot for thinking envenom was a dot?
This skill text tricked the hell out of me
I feel slightly embarrassed
40 to 60% of their dps is just passivs link to their buttons

Wording or wow spells can be confusing sometimes, we all fell idiot at some point reading something wrong
It's cos of the time after it but obviously that's the buff time
Like what is considered poisons is sometimes tricky
I feel most of the dmg is bleed?
to all branch enjoyers, how do you guys see/track the orb when it's so hectic especially in m+?
I basically run to the first one....and then I either ignore it alltogether, or I just make sure the third one hits me around the time I'm shiv'ing
just go front right then strafe left and just wait the last orb hit you
Wait, is this right? the AP build plays without crimson tempest? I took the build from zerocool and it doesnt have it
It is right
that's literally ST build with IC over Dashing
arterial shock is build from wowhead guide in m+ section
What 
it s a more ST focus build that does well in aoe as well (we dont need aoe as long as dh aint nerfed)
in 24 25 i sometimes dont find time to press CT anyway, i just put dots, try to start CD / envenom chain. And the pack is already dead within the 5 next seconds

we started our pull count at 1000 and are counting down
Thatās good tech
Should we be holding our second dm/kb for burn phase on gnarlroot? Or always on cd?
We did the seeds correctly in p2 and one of our officers was like HOLY SHIT WE ACTUALLY DID IT
Should line up normally
We still don't know what makes slice and dice useless?
It legit healing 8k on a 5.5 min fight
it took us like 20 pulls to stop being blinded by all the fucking moonfires
Youāll learn all of his voice lines really quick
I feel like I need to wear sun glasses or something
because I literally can see a fucking thing man
I don't play with dialogue on
unlucky
There was a good moment last night
Where I asked someone smash or pass tindral sageswift
They responded with āwhat formā
It s what made me able to watch jpc, without this i just wouldnt have watched a single pull
they need to do something about the visuals
like if they just took the texture for the moonfires
and deleted the file
that'd be great
Or you know the other 10000 things that lag that fight
Have you flown through the trees going to platform two yet
I had to turn my raid settings to 1
It zooms your camera in a bit
and that stopped me from freezing up
And you drop to a slideshow
my 7950x, 32GB of DRR5 RAM and 3070 aren't good enough ig
The boss doesnāt stand still in place for 2s every pull because of the lag either
Only 32gb in 2023 
@bleak sky fuck tindral sageswift you feel me
As long as it looks like this in logs, you're doing good:
How do you keep 40 chrome tabs and discord and wow and a secret second game all running at once
i'd fuck tswift

yeah so wait like 7 or so secs before grabbing the 3rd orb right?
says the guy prolly using ddr 4 still

Hell nah

yeah you just wanna make sure you have 3 for the end of the KB
Thanks!
so im very confused, im not sure if im doing something wrong, but my caustic spatter dmg is INSANLY low compared to like the top logs and other stuff, im Sulfinrng
and then this is just one of the top logs that I found
Hi guys, pretty bad dadgamer rogue looking to see if I have any obvious flailings and failings from my guild's first step into heroic last night, got thru smolderon down. Volocross has so little going on I was sure it would go better, but I got dunked by our other assa rogue, who had like dozens more mut casts than me somehow? Could anyone give me a look on this and see if I'm missing something big? (I'm stabspacho) https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/bnMRFcydHGXwJTKf#fight=23&type=damage-done
He also has me by 9 ilvl which is prob a lot of it
Does IC consider nearby enemies to be the ones closest to me or my target when it's choosing new rup/garr targets?
I assume your stabspacho in logs?
Just at a quick glance I see you aren't envenoming before deathmark, also dance before kingsbane
bless u both

and you tea when kingsbane is at 5 seconds
Check out whispyrs video on the opener and whack the dummy for a bit it will come easier and increase damage a lot
the short answer? both, it checks range around the target and you 
that's why its a little fucky sometimes

i wanted to ask, you have to vanish + garrote 3 sec before kigsbane ends and i understand that, but do i need to refresh my garrote 3 sec before kingsbane end even when vanish is in cd? or doesnt matter?
Thanks
Yeah it's OK to garrote first global of that vanish unless you need to keep envenom up first
Makes more sense now, I thought I was going fucking crazy.

But once you get this + pooling down you will have significantly better damage
I noticed it a few weeks ago, and I was like I swear part of this is working like blade flurry and part of it is working like replicating
then it was confirmed
I thought I was imagining shit too
hybrid or arterial for rise?
Quick question, what's a good mastery % goal?
Whatever the robot says
zerowho? 
Donāt aim for specific breakpoint to
Hi, I was raiding heroic 1st time, and I am not sure what am I doing wrong or maybe I am lacking gear soo much, but I cannot parse more then grey xdd
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/id/78130198
Can someone take a look and give me some advice or tips?
Don't have time for a deep dive but you should look into when you use Caustic Spatter over internal bleeding
it's a good amount of damage for cleave
that has to be like the very bottom of a long check list of advice to give when someone is gray parsing
apologies friend
My man, what are you doing all fight long with a 92% uptime
Looking at Gnarl in specific
First hit of advice is to make sure you read the guide. Your opener is way off. Youāre missing a major step on the process of it all. Your uptime is low in general so you gotta sim to be as close as possible
Youāre also wasting a lot of CP in general
Is it safe to macro on use trinket to kingsbane?
That seems aggressive, itās not meant to be
safe'ish - prolly best is DM
Since you do SD too, probably better to dm
Ok
I did the last boss in a 22 WM without an offhand weapon and we still timed itā¦. It was broken because it was the most cursed run ever. Is this the easiest season yet?
Fort is always free with those affixes
Ah yes
like bruh - i get you're a warrior but
The tank I had yesterday had the glorious idea to pull the entire room before 1st boss
you just got one shot like the last 3 times you pulled that
you think you wanna keep doing it
we still only missed the timer by probably 30 sec
it was that pack with the dot and the patting pack before the bosses
our dmg was so garbage too
I like not having restealth all dungeon long
crimson tempest be damned
9/10 times I forget that I have crimson lmao
lol
You get a dot! And you get a dot! And Caustic fun begins - looks at WA and see's Crimson midway through the pack 
the rogue toolkit in general is just so versatile
like i never have to really run from a spiteful
i'm either shotting it in the kidney, or evasion tanking like 3 of them or whatever
Which build?

Rip fury 
It's just ST spatter build but with IC instead of Dashing really
Annhil build 
Probably only effective on high keys yeah?
I dunno really...but i've been pumping with it...and having a lot of fun.
Spear 
Spear into Aggro into Death 
Im a spear hater
Right
Spear Macrod with Rek and Tierset was a fun gamble to press
The warrior way, ripping agro, dying, blaming tank
Either you die due to tank not having aggro or you rip
So you put a bunch of eggs in the KB basket
It'd be nice to have CT i guess, but dont have two points to get it
Which is great if trash mobs live long enough
I swear now I watch warriors leap and OF before I even touched half the mobs in a pack and get the entire pack of agro
I pretty much run tricks everywhere
Idk I dont see any wars outside of raids 
I've seen some slapper fury in keys
Arms is unplayable, fury is a horrendous build, and the only redeeming factor about prot is Spell Reflect
The only redeeming factor about fury - is 2 2 handers
i shoulda boosted a warrior instead of a hunter
Cause holy flightstones
2 2hs is the only reason why Fury is even played
at least i'd probably do world stuff every week on a warrior
Classfantasy stronk
I started getting my fury up, it was my main in 10.1 for the first half
And I don't have the new set yet
And tbh 2x Tae is just 
can you buy another 70 boost? and does it come with 424?
and I'm still enjoying myself because I enjoy AM/Rav
My warrior is just there to boost plate alts to 450 now 
so I'm not looking forward to the new set
Once I get the new set
i'm going to sim AM/Rav/OF vs the new build
Also, would you get the back-dated charges from catalyst?
Do I play my vulp hunter or do I level a new one 
because if it's like 2-3% I'm just going to say fuck it and play old style
with OF added
Yes, charges are global
Oh no š¦
roll a vulp rogue
Blizz usually releases the changes late afternoon on Fridays correct?

Ola all to be sure you only use twice Garrot in the shadow bain window if you have vanish (one use after first envenum and before the rupture and then the second one just after vanish) if not you just spam envenum ?

guys are we obliged to envenom on 4cp ? or it doesnt matter as long as it's either on 4 or full cp ?
does shadow dance enable indiscriminate carnage
somone got the KB Training WA ?
4cp or more
thanks
yes thank u
Yes while shadow dance is up IC is active
is there any reason to bind Ambush sepretly from mut? or let me say, is thewre any point when u have an Blindside proc and u dont wanna use it ?
No
You cant use mutilate with blindside procced
Just put ambush where mut is on your stealth bar
ye i have
mutilate converts automatically to ambush when Blindside proccs
i know i know i just remember that at some point whysper said something like that
it was probably about mutilating during dance or something
cause before blizzard changed the button system u had an extra button for ambush

Mythic track upgrades to 496?
489
Heroic goes to 483 right?
Yes
That's not THAT BIG of a difference
I'm getting 2 pieces of mythic track this week so far so we'll see what i get
yeah enough to matter (on the collective whole), but not enough that like 1 slot really matters
well maybe wep matters
6ilvl in every slot definitely adds up
yeah
so it depends on your definition of not much :p
i guess like if my chest was 489 or my chest was 483 - i don't think i'd do any markable amount of damage difference lol
does anyone else feel extremely energy starved with the m+ hybrid build?
i used to til i shelved that build
arterial m+ is a lot better (make sure newer build with venom rush and blindside)
ah

i have question for which i think i know the answer but ill ask anyway, You have your bleeds up and youre used your CD's but still high on energy because what ever factors, and you chain your envenoms, its ok to chain your envenom at 1sec left remaining OR if you are about to come energy capped then just slam it right?
if you are overcapping u press it no matter the timer
yeah thats what i thought
otherwise u are pooling for nuffing
hey question was probably asked a million times but if i cant get a Pi in my raid is it worth switching from outlaw to assa still? mind you not just straight sim dps but its a big switch in gear, trinkets crafts etc, is there a significant benefit? RL is looking at logs and its all assa but i dont know if this is valid without PI
If you go over 240 energy - send your envenom regardless of how much time you have left.
just play what you find the most fun imo, if your raid leader is worth their shit you should get PI granted it does not go waste when thrown on you š
yo guys, is the bis list for sin on wowhead still up to date?
Is this your opinion or is there a general consensus that the arterial build is better?
they are very similiar, just play one you want imo, not huge difference in dps at all what i head from here
i mean i like rogue regardless so i dont mind playing either but dont really wanna do that switch just to find out it was uselss and just took a PI from someone that their PI dps + my outlaw would be more essnetially. Also its more that we dont have consistent priests
i play arterial tho. š
I've never run a poll - but I don't much care what "a majority" thinks. I'm guessing if someone enjoys blindside - they will have a smiliar opinion that it's better - just based on feel alone.
Just act like PI doesnt exist
fok?
you mean double feint into crimson vial
doesnt even break stealth

I basically run ST build in m+ anyway - but if i had to choose between arterial and hybrid - i'm running arterial every time.
Fort week or not, the bosses still have to die.
i also think arterial shiv doesnt go waste as much if you KB target dies early because there is still mobs with shiv effects on them so they get increased bleed/nature dmg taken
if i run into a problem with this build (i dont think I will) I'll switch to arterial. But my goal is only everything on 20-21 this season so.
TTK and not iron wire? 
oh yeah i troll there
always ironwire in m+
prolly swap that one hah
so good
Iron wire is the main reason why people take me in groups I think
Pugs dont know what iron wire does
yeah i swapped that a while ago and forgot i did
All pugs see is huge dps bar
prolly for hitting dummies
Wait what you're not playing sudden demise? That's a flat 10% bleed damage buff
5Head
You donāt take sudden demise? Or scent
Gonna use this to go from grey logging to greylogging
Dos that build preform decent?
your 10 will be an 11
You basic let caustic splat do work
yeah i smash
if you like 500k openers on bosses, etc
seems aight
it might be troll though, i duno
Yeah that looks kinda sus
A 13 is too low to do any testing as assass
Everything will die before your dots can tick
i've only run it on like 17's and up
you gotta be good with KB usage and DM too
you can't just play it and zug zug
Nah that build is super good for all keys on tyra week and also on fort with dungeons like Fall, DHT, AD, ToT, (dungeons with small pulls)

it slaps in big pulls too though
like cuastic and poison bomb, envenoms, it's ridiculous the numbers with no cooldown
s
like those swell mobs in TOTT - those pulls are ridiculous
Not sure
obviously we failed it cause of rogue dmg right
not cause we had 28 deaths

unironically you probably did
Did a 22 DHT the other night with the cleave build
unironically, what is your problem with me?
Destroyed on boss damage
Do you use shiv outside of kb and dm? If so when?
How about window when kb is up but dm isnāt?
Thx
Shiv has 30seconds cd, kb 1 min, dm 2min
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/wERGi4tBSwSvu3g3KLwCBi my dslice is telling me don't take sudden demise

The executes arent included in the sims
you shiv twice with KB
Because they cant be accurately simmed
I thought they were added at some point when the sim DPS jumped up but I never checked
It's kinda low on my hybrid build setup anyway
dslice will also tell you this ST/IC build without CT is better.
hey everyone, how come that the wowhead/whispyr talents, the fuu spreadsheet and the mplus.subcreation.com talent builds all differ? which one do you play in m+ (with 4p)?
huh i always thought you could shiv during the KB cd window and be fine, i guess i'll sit on shiv until there's two charges for KB from now on
I play shock
If you always shiv before KB - and shiv with 8 sec remaining in KB - you always have both shivs FOR kb
ie. no waiting/sitting
yup
Yeah i'm saying i've been doing it wrong and shiving 30 seconds before kb came up, so i knew i would have one during the KB
Just play whatever you want. Bloodmallet has comparisons for many of the popular builds
I don't play super high keys tho - I've only done 20/21's
any idea why subcreation has lots of people playing this? https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/rogue/assassination/DAOFVVFRRFURQmJBQCURNVUVVVQZEAUKFUBE
worth it for aoe also I dont feel so much lack of st
I think some people swap to hybrid on like 24+?
What's the cleave build?
Subcreation is shit
Just takr VR/Blindside with the AP build
Same as raid build but you take IC
and spatter
And caustic of course
for splatting
if you wanna spat
waft the splat
What's wrong with this
splat the spat
Standard hybrid build?
Also I think sandglass is over simming literally
I'm currently a crab enjoyer

After you typed 5 Minutes straight 
@twilit hollow @runic hinge
Kingsbane timer updated with custom sound support. You can now enter a custom file path to play custom sounds.
https://wago.io/8WWlvpYa9
I was typing other things
Nice
Then I saw the crab mention and had to go back

did you sim with all raidbuffs? because changing to no raidbuffs changed what simmed highest to me
Where can I look at the BISes and the stas? because according to the page and different wologs players they change
This seems to conflict either the WoWhead rotation guide which says to shiv and dance before pressing kingsbane
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
It doesn't conflict
You Dance before kingsbane. The Dance Tick is for when dance ends not when you cast dance
The Shiv tick is your second shiv. You cast 2 of them
The dance tick is to tell you "After this point, switch from ambush to mutilate" if you're someone who uses them on two different buttons. If you aren't, you can disable the tick
Or, "Don't garrote after this tick"
Apart from Kingsbane/SD macro is there any other one to use in Sin ? Went to IV & wowhead guide but, it's just to be sure :p
I mean useful dps only macro, not trick one or others
Ya getting parried sucks !
My entire kingsbane cast got parried yesterday during council mythic fight š„²
is kingsbane confirmed getting nerfed or are mfs in my group talking out their asses
nothing confirmed
Why is kb able to be parried
just why
Dunno
is there a version of this macro /cast [known: Hidden Opportunity, stance:1/2/3] Ambush ; Sinister Strike for Assassination?
don't u love it getting m+ loot on slots where u ahve already crafted gear....
infinite boots and belts yea

dang the belt craft
anyone have issues with garrote tracking on plater? I add it to my debuff tracking list, but it wont show up
the simplest solution would be to just use cevs or whispyrs awesome plater profile
and go from there
It happened to me 2 times on iridkron š
but i very much like my nameplates
Does Improved Garrote get it's own debuff? never looked.
mine tracks fine
you can change the visuals on them aswell, they just have all the tracking stuff done
and the removal of unnecessary stuff
maybe same debuff name, different spellid even? no clue
i use a very customized m+ plater with kicks and timers and stuff
very customized plater that can't track Garrote 
Cause fuck you thatās why

What count as "Poison Damage" for Caustic Spatter ? Our lethal poison obviously, anything else ?
all nature damage
A little damage ability called Kingsbane š
do we just macro branch to deathmark?
What buffs does evoker align with our burst rotation?
I just think it's better in every way
also, is there like a branch weakaura?
Many
Itāll just me saying get good
yeah and it should include memz picture

care to elaborate?
how are new peopel suposed to get it without memz diagram
Anyone know how to turn off plater for specific mobs or something
Internet gone while rise tyr fight .....
Saw someone talk about doing it for the roots on tindral
theres a few scripts that can do it
i need to butcher the Morchie one someday for roots
unless someone beat me to it
but looking at literally anything written in LUA makes me hate existing
I posted it
More of desired stat early + stamina and whatever + Engineering wrists
It might be a .01% worse in bis
I am fine with that

this is why you gotta make an empty ass discord server just to dump random neat shit to yourself
Thanks gigachad
Seriously⦠I wish disc worked like slack where I can message myself
So simply this way ?
#showtooltip Deathmark
/use 13
/use Elemental Potion of Ultimate Power
/cast Deathmark
(13 is branch)
You can
@slate crown
i really should macro pot to my DM
Yup
Haha I was actually considering doing that but didnāt wanna bother you @slate crown
but i hate using pot on non-important pulls
Then in search do "from:lisonna mentions:lisonna
Youre gonna go through like 20 pots a dungeon
Donāt use the macro in your m+ set
Ez
I macroed the cauldron ones to cds
i was up 200k last night in raid gambling
Maybe I do that with [instance:raid] modifier and never deathmark trash
Also my aura has sounds and stuff, don't know if the Lowii's does, Sounds for pickups are essential imo https://wago.io/q7bHLuILp
it does a little water drop sound iirc
the circle marks are SUPER goated
yeah just plant feet and wait for bloop
Game already sounds like a slot machine during encounters. lol
HAHAH same
i will say
I got horns and bells going offf
Horns bells whistles gun shots dings
if i have to step from boss-to-boss and forget about my orbs one more time on Council im going to scream
i said it last night but FUCK that boss
Can the orbs dissipate if you donāt grab them?
Council is just chaos
its so little fun
i cant fucking wait for Larodar/Smolderon prog
Yes, 20sec. The bar in my aura lasts until they are gone
my sanity broke yesterday and every wipe i just started spamming "quack" in saychat
You gotta do it before hand
You can't when you are ducked
cloak exists solely to dispel myself or survive a few early ticks from the DoT from the grass shit
also hearing our two evokers talking about ducking eachother was funny for about the first 15 mins
then it was brain damaging
Fucking quackers

so to my understanding Crit mastery and haste are all relatively equal for sin rogues with vers be least desired, is there a recommended amount or crit that i should stay under i.e. 33% 35% or something ? in terms of anythign more isnt really be benificial? and please dont say sim your character

Iām a philanthropist now btw⦠keep getting other people loot in fall
Itās a simple life
Do I need to put both ambush and mutilate in classic & stealth bar or only ambush in stealth mode and mutilate in classic bar as it switch to ambush when blindside proc ?
its build, gear, and skill dependent
the second DM where you have to do it on the move is hilarious
literally jumping back into fire to grab third branch orb and stepping back lol
Bro im literallt cloaking so i can dps during my cds there LMAO
and this reminds me why discord is useless for questions
so i can just run through the fire
i am sorry that the correct answer is not one you like
unfortunately
Itās only useless because you didnāt like the answer
there is nothing we can do about that
any question that anyone ever has all you do is scapegoat it and say sim yourself thats not answerign the question im not askign to min max im asking a general qusetion
he lookin to fight bros
that IS the answer
one could be like 12 dps higher than the other.
At different times
there is no "simple answer", stats are near the same and unless you care about minmaxing the stats dont matter anyway
simming does nothign when i dotn ahve multiple sets of gear
so no simming does nothing
all 4 stats are good. what gear you have changes the order. math figures that out. robot does the math.
droptomizer exists
But like
Our stats fluctuate on priority based on the here you are everywhere else. The only way to maximize your character is to sim yourself.
There are no breakpoints where z becomes garbage. No time where you rush x% or y stat
droptimizer, gear compare, or you can paste the string into top gear even
Simming only helps you if you are picking your stats somehow. If you have a piece of gear and it is an item level upgrade, you should just take it
And its all dependent on your particular gear set
I refuse
i dotn care about min maxing im never goign to do mythic raid yet alone hardly heroic or anything higher than 15s on rogue simply putting why i asked if there was a point in which crit is goign to be far less valuable at aWhat % just liek frost mages crit is main stat but pretty but useless after 33-35% becuase of shatter
the only time i think ive ever gone for % breakpoints is pvp healing so that my casts feel less booty
Answer is no
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Mast = Crit = Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs like Witherbark's Branch and Wafting Devotion can often de-value the stat in question. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
No there isnāt
Mastery craters If you have branch, but you still want mastery
yeah but how much crit
Branch fucked up my whole gear set tbh
34% crit. stop lying you bastards.
was kind of annoying
So it Involves mastery
Old meme boomer
i just take the stuff with more agi ngl
If you don't care about min maxing. Take Ilvl upgrades, pick the stat you like most for your gems/enchants, and you will do just fine.
That was almost 4 years ago
i dotn care about min maxing
if there was a point in which crit is goign to be far less valuable at aWhat %
that's it, make it easy

my sims are vers perverts now
I have 49% crit lol and it feels fine to me. I didn't sim it once.
Same kindof
hanging out in a game you donāt play spec channel boomer meme
time for everyone to drop their stat weights 
spec is too meta for Wuake. 
Brother Iāve log reviewed
Iām beyond help
@cerulean nest look at my OL M+ stat distro's lol
have Rokley ban you.
I might 

guys what is the absolute perfect amount of crit and mastery i need to get a rank 1 on every raid fight while i tie my hands behind my back pls answer me oh and don't say sim yourself
jeez 5% leech?
about 5
we dont need no leech
Wait, yeah no, it's 5
0
you only need access to OT. with the amount of time you waste in here you may as well raid
leech goes brrrrt
Don't leave meeeeee
how do recover energy on sudden demise + dragon-tempered blades build?
i feel like blindside proc helps so much on energy š¦

Havenāt seen my computer in over a month
Y'all got a ton of crit
i'm a critting machine
be in AoE or cry and !pooling
!pooling
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
every fok is like full CP's
Must feel soo good
restrict access to discord on the phone
my sin stats arent as good looking as my OL
dang yeah you drop a lot of vers
god i need to farm a hero track nick and branch still
pft
i do not like this
my vaults have been such mega ass
We're literally done raiding so - we'll do like however many mythic bosses we can put on farm friday nights, and that's it.
and that's beer night so
my guild is the best
part of me misses mythic and part of me doesn't
Tbh I much prefer this raid over last two
yeah i dunno if the tuning is "lower" on heroic - than previous xpacs?
S1 wasnāt bad but this tier is great
This tier has been really easy as far as heroic is concerned
