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
bro at least 200 apm ngl haha
So if you've got max CPs- you just send a Rupture, then Ambush, Garrote- and hit'em with the Envenom- i learnt that the most important thing to get in your re-stealth windows was just to get a emp garrote off.
What’s the command for the pooling graphic
oh ok So is empowered rupture just ass then? Just not worry about empowering it and essentially focus on garrote/envenom
I like looking at pictures more than I do reading
!guide Whispyr has a mention on it in the rotation section under Nightstalker, after the openers
Assassination Guides:
Wowhead: https://www.wowhead.com/assassination-rogue-guide
IV: https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/assassination-rogue-pve-dps-guide
Method: https://www.method.gg/guides/assassination-rogue
But ultimately, it's fine to rupture if you want. Envenom is always good. Rupture may lead to wasted energy if you clip a non-pandemic rupture
They're close enough
Personally I just rupture if it's in pandemic
otherwise envenom
i.e., treat it like normal
is artierial shock the go to M+ build now? rip my dragon-tempered blades 😦
If it gains the NS bonus, great. If not, oh well nbd
I was curous about this. Sorry if the answer is obvious here but I just want to triple check. In M+ with like 4+ targets and or 7+ target rotations. Should I try to get garrote/rupture on all mobs before even starting DM/KB? Will the bleeds overall net me more dmg than getting my CDs out?
Both works
i like playing with AP- but DTB might pull better due to the nerfs to Blindside.
Gonna try running sin in keys this week
also what about when I lose the stealth window? Do I still try to get garrotes/ruptes?
anyone figured out yet what's the deal with sudden demise literally not proccing at all sometimes?
soundsgood
Just follow wowhead
It's accurate
can it be that any bleeds applied after the mob hits 35% do not trigger sudden demise at all?
I dont fully understand wowhead thats why im asking
ha
It also doesnt mention if I lose my stealth buff
like do I try to single apply rupture/garrote still
i mean you have two target counts slected, i don't know how much it changes, but it will change the garrotes and ruptures at the start
or go into CDs
U lose ur stealth buff after 3 globals
What does wowhead say
both suggest garrote/rupture all targets if im understanding it. 7+ just adds more instances of it
this like 3 globals already
yes
You have IC to spread ruptures to more targets after this falls
also the stealth is 10seconds (Like the ability to apply to multiple)
no
ya but once IC falls off
That's why u don't garrote after those 3 globals
Until dance
No more shrouded
Then you don't rupture once IC is gone
No more IC
10 seconds
select only the 7+ target count on wowhead, it will show you what to do in any situation of 7 or more targets
Spreading bleeds before deathmark is good for few things:
- scent of blood buff for 20% agi from rupture spread
- energy
- garrote shrouded suffocation dam and iron wire
So you do this first
if it lists only 3 garrotes, then you garrote 3 times
for 7, can I fit all this in IC window?
If the window falls off before because I need to use defensive or something
Yes IC lasts 13s
do I swap to KB
where's whispyr at? he handing out vault blessings this week
or keep trying to single target rpture
If your IC falls
Rupture to 5 targwts
Then DM
You want minimum 5
Because of scent of blood
Ya this is the part I was confused about sorry.
should have been more clear
The 6+ target one is because u still have IC buff so it's worth
ya
It's not worth it you don't have, beyond 5t
oh baby that is some garbage
The happy path I get it more so when I dont have the happy path.
I lied, both rings have sockets, so that isnt as bad
bless my vault someone
Sub mirror 
Also if im going to only get like half a KB on a target, I assume its still worth sending?
wait vault is open? I thought not until 11
Apparently its at reset now
U will be blessed with 483 timestrike dagger
Wdym half
Like they are low HP?
Oxi! vault blessing pls
what about me
do I get anything cool
you get 4 cloaks sorry
bracers have a socket too but I already have crafted bracers
ya, even in like 20s by the time I get all the garrotes and ruptures out things are like half dead
I usually still send DM/KB
It depends
and get like half its vlaue
- is there another big pull or boss right after
- do you have DM coming up in <30s
- are your teammates cooldowning this pack
If they are cooldowning this pack and no high hp targwts
or myth tier
justice for the 67 runs
Rip
Usually this happens on like the first pull big lust packs
maybe I save my CDs for next pull
Yes well your tank should always have a big HP target in there
or just send and get as much value as possiblke
Crazy took me 42 runs in my shaman for crab I still need to farm Nick on my rogue ;_;
ya even that target is usually like dead thougho n 20s
!branch
once I get to like 22+ though
whats % drop rate for nick ? or its same like other items?
shouldnt be an issue
It's fine
no nick of time in vault REEEEE
Send dm
do we get another catalyst charge this week?
kk
Isn’t it still myth track?
15 aspects tho, madge
This is why you 8x20 tsk tsk
Aren't you EU anyway
Was off by like 3
Oh yah I only saw you on ptr
guys on raid do i go for sophic or wafting?
wowhead says wafting method say sophic 😄
My vault sucked lmao
I need to remember how to have multiple vault options to check possibilities
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/vvcsuxd3gxySWAaPbchiaA
Believe and achieve
Jesus Christ. I sim so much lower
If you expect socket
Hrm raging week now feeling incentive to aoe shiv for dispel sadge
You can only be pleasantly surprised
Actually I guess it doesn't matter. My belt has a socket, so I won't replace that with a crafted anyway
cant be dissapointed if youre expecting a socket
What are affixes this week
As long as you have a irreplaceable piece to put it on
Am I gonna hate myself
but imagine a nick of time myth track
Im quite suprised that sims value chest over ring when I have 2 champion rings that are both haste heavy.
rings have no main stat
Dw I don't get close to that :^)
ahh true
all the same ilvl slots?
i always sim my great vault gear upgraded to the max in it's tier also
does the vault give you gear you already have? I got all my tier pieces wondering if it ups my chances of nick
existing rings are 463, new ring would be 489. Current chest is 473, oh I didnt compare it against an upgraded chest actually
let me do that
is the cataclysmic signet still recomended in M+ overall? With it dropping combat and whatnot
it's random, unrelated to current gear or slot's ilvl
Been pooling up Aspect crests
Should I spend my aspect crests on crafted crests first?
well, based on bosses and dungeons rather than random but from that pool
(If I can't push my weapons and trinkets higher, which I can't atm)
unsure of what level of gear your going for, i personally iteratively upgrade my lowest item. or max out a BiS item or rather a vault mythic piece

I was planning on crafting a ring this week but I could keep trying to farm Archdruid and run it with this athena and then craft engi bracers
This week we should craft rings?
Choice between Augury and Ashes trinket OS OTL sims are saying Ashes
get your flavor packet, engi bracers, or that missing dagger
I have a pick between signet and upgrading my head tier from champion to hero, and I play mostly m+. Is the signet worth it?
ya I was doing ring or engi
basically flavor or brez
I'm not sure how dungeonslice sim handles signet to make a call
Which do yall think?
Rings are good.
Rings get free socket
Which makes up a bit for the ilvl loss over a 4/4 myth piece
Question for the sim expects here, any reason why the world boss necklace is simming over my 476?
If play assa and outlaw whats stats?
Obviously you'd eventually be able to get a 4/4 myth piece + socket but may take some time
It’s in the pins, third to be exact

hate vault day, like a million 20-23 Falls and no dagger. I hope everyone else has better luck!

is this a catalyst week, i forget
Isn’t every week after the first week a catalyst week
Augury not worth?
And ever other week a spark
every 2 weeks and no not this one
why god
Is porcelain crab not worth it?
thx
Then we got an answer
Gratz on the trinket
🦀
hourglass and branch better ig
ive already got hourglass and embersoul, ive got 2 crafted rings still
idk if i should take
🦀 Crab Bis 🦀
🦀 40% uptime🦀
I have low mastery but the sims seem to keep valuing other stats over mastery. Curious why
Any good for assass? sounds like a 100k shield could be nice for prog/keys but bad stats
and ive got branch for anything I don't feel like using embersoul on so cata band lowkey feels bait af
🦀 avoidance 🦀
Crab p good for Sin
🦀 Crab Bis 🦀
🦀 40% uptime🦀
did 35 this week and 1 dropped 🙂
I have crab and branch and they crank
You have branch already??
I need all the crests 😦
champion branch because i'm a commoner
exactly ❤️
myth branch much rarer
we did it bois
xD
4pc or ashes of the embersoul
Any idea when nerfs will be reflecting in Raidbots?
ashes 🙂
Is the icy veins website for best assasination gear accurate
Raidbots doesn't have our nerfs included in simming yet, right?
Dont think so
do your weekly heroic first
I’d assume we’ll see then by the afternoon
maybe you get an embersoul there
Tyranical Raging, what are you all thinking for the week?
no spiteful
"That one" build?, or standard shock BS?
Hmm... myth track sandglass or hero track pips from vault?
shivshivshivshivshiv
Sandglass imo
Blindside nerf kinda nerfs that one build
Embersoul or augur primal? Os Is otl
Maybe can take ttb instead
DTB or SD?
its.... so pretty
wow devastating being that I already have branch
I landed a myth NoT in vault today too
myth + leech double upgrade
It would be cool if we could use tokens to add tertiarys
ok wish lucks
Good luck on Nicholas
oh buddy
+speed on every item
you grab that branch
now
Ashes is decent
If you don’t take that branch I’m deleting your rogue

What’s ur skill rotation in pve aoe fight
Looks like u need to swap outlaw and take ring. Unlucky
i mean
thoughts on 3rd spark? Ring?
my sim wants me to take vers
now
so that ring is pretty good imo
Its all stat values
dont just throw away something since it has vers
Ashes trinket sims pretty bad for me
i dont even know what i take
like -4k vs branch+sandglass
My profile desperately needs mastery. All my jewelry is crit haste
ez choices
i guess waycrest ring, because i need a ring and might want to try outlaw in the future
im jelly, grats
I wish I could get a weapon of any kinda, still rocking all Champion weapons can't find a heroic track one to save my life
craft one
i have 1 champ and 1 hero nick of time, i suppose it was selfish to pray for a mythic track as well
Hoooray
I have 1 hero 1 champ nick as well and I should probably spam more falls for another hero but I tell myself it's a waste of time when surely the myth will be in my next vault
im on vacation for the next 3 weeks, so this was my last vault for a while
such a let down
opened my mistweaver's vault first - he got mythic BIS weapon. i knew i should've opened rogue first, woulda been a Nick!
Yeah but our kb nerf!
Specs dead
actually
reroll
We still blasting
windwalker are on the rise
Oh wait, we dooming?
back to sub
dont listen
Thoughts? I'm thinking trinket and upgrade it to 489 (currently using pip and branch)
omg no more fucking spiteful
yessss
agreed
How much was the nerf exactly in raid? looks like sub 4%?
ok, ring and shoulders are both a 30 ilvl upgrade, and are relatively similar in terms of DPS gain. i have 4 piece with legs instead of shoulders. unsure of which tbh
If you can replace legs with good stats the catalyzed shoulder would prolly be better
another catalyst today? 😮
i got myth track legs last vault, i figured they won't be replaced for a while
i could.. just make hero track shoulders
do we have another cata today?
Next week I think
damn 🥲
Its spark reset
i did pick up these, so i could theoretically replace the legs with shoulders
Legs are our offset piece for assassination
got my'das trinket in the vault, would I use that at any particular time? Just on cd? Wait for kb? anything like that?
whats the build we run this week for Tyran? sorry if posted somewhere
does monk/dh buff work on our dots and etc ?
yeah - i just did what i could with what the vault has been giving me haha
No no I know- I feel it. Just good to think about the long term
anyone can recommend a good plater with spatter
ask him to tank
Ask him to heal because he’s already good at ruining your life
is it the hybrid AOE ST build?
Just run arterial precision if you’re not doing 25+ keys
should i take the myth dagger even though i have 2 hero track nick of times
Sim it
Seems like you got your answer!
this look right?
kinda weird answer
since on 25+ there is no real reason to swap off of it either
How is it weird? If you’re not running rank 1 keys it literally doesn’t matter what talents you run
Truth
it doesnt matter in the grand scheme of things anyways
Damage doesn't brick your keys
since they all perform similar
Surviving does
I just wanna look at tiny pixels and be happy tbh
Okay, just wasnt sure if there was a better choice or anything for more boss dam without losing a ton of AOE. Thank you all
arterial with bs and vr should have the best st
I started dropping deeper strat for acro lately, real handy for uncoordinated stuff to just have extra tea sitting around rather than the CP cap
is mythic track nightmare egg sim bait?
there are no simbaits
The whole outlaw specialization be like:

Outlaw is the DH of rogue specs
what's ya'lls haste sitting at?

Mine was a juicy 7.3k last night XD finally got some items swapped around tho
thats what my shit looks like... what is ideal haste?
Which assa spec it better to start? Im testing some bit Im always lacking energy
believe me, it cant feel a certain way. you wont feel any different having more haste
whatever sims highest
ideal haste is when robot says "yep, this is ideal"
all hail the robot
They all have energy management as a feature. Check out the videos/guides on pooling and energy efficiency
Thanks
i think the energy management for assa feels pretty intuitive to me and the payoff for doing it right is very easily discernable
but that could just be personal preference
Sometimes is just a pain to wait energy to come back
It definitely takes a minute to get used to. I think I only really got the hang of it this weekend
Looks very hard to play
we are blessed to have whispyr because his guides are fucking MINT
Or pet your loaf of a cat
the ideal rotation is to go check out cats and dogs of assassination while you're pooling energy for envenom
It doesn't matter when your downtime is outside of cds, so you can kinda put it wherever you want
I just realized that I haven’t gotten a weapon the vault since I passed on a 421 fenryrs fang in season 1
Wait where is that?
Do the Sims already have the nerfs accounted for? Or will that come this week?
it's a thread in this channel
God bless you sir
o7
nerfs are in on raidbots
Is witherbark that much better over ashes?
i like ashes better but i hate the orbs
that isnt even the tooltip for caustic splatter?
thats like a mix of caustic and your tier
i feel like you are trolling lol
Is envenom poison damage
There’s plenty of nuance to it tho
Depends on what’s asking
You can kind of anticipate the lul
Oh wait that’s been fixed iirc
Yeah, something finally clicked and it felt like I wasn't fighting with my flow anymore
Might have also been having 7k haste without wafting proc tho
i don't think so
Nah we have consistency finally this tier
Had a funny throne run with God comp-ish (havoc/sin/Aug) I dunked super hard the whole way through until the ink hallway. Havoc boy kept spawning more adds until he hit 110Mil of nonsense damage on extra adds
Envenom works with mastery and Zoldyck’s fr
!up
40% of this mans damage done was just that hallway on the debuff adds
A DH would never do that
ty
NEVER
What build are people running in high end keys? i have seen soo many different things. even non crimson builds. Anyone upthere running high keys have any thoughts.
What's a high key to ya?
26+
turn the tides and hold deathmark for ozumat with damage amp 
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
If you are running 26s you probably never need to ask that question
Our healer and tank died so I didn't feel safe holding for that phase lol
If you aren't running 26s that question shouldn't inform any decision you make
Just sent evasion and prayed for the ink to die
but he asked so like, if you want to answer you can, this response doesnt help anything
this has to be the dumbest answer to any question on the internet. if you dont have an answer to my question than dont answer it instead of this highhorse BS you are trying to say.
this ^
It's based mostly on what your comp is gonna do. It's hard to answer cuz my team is gonna do it way A, your team might go way B
But they are honestly close enough to not matter
raidbot seems to be updated btw
if your rupture and garrote are about to drop you should you delay death mark and reapply them first before deathmarking?
But if your squad is double havoc or some shit, you probably can send it on the no fan/ct build
206k sim down to 201k 😦
is my 463 NoT really better than 483 Cruel in OH slot or is my Sim fucked lol
it is most likely better yes
wild
Offhand damage doesn't mean a lot compared to a proc
I was bumming with a 450 rare mob drop for a while lol
Can anyone point me to the pandemic configuration on Whispyr's plater profile? Been through all the modding/scripting options but can't seem to find it.
Fire damage proc was netting me .8% lol
@storm belfry This you king?
yeah, just seems crazy how the proc is so valueable 
Cloak ilvl upgrade on the myth track or CSB on the champ track?
i've decided that if i get a nick from this vault i'm just gonna give up farming fall and just use the m0 one i have in my off hand, my sanity isnt worth it
ive decided im never seeing nick
I got Nick and hourglass last night, finally freeing me from s2 gear hell
i got 489 NoT today, still need to farm hero one sadge
And then got back to back socketed rings, so I'm set until I get vault rng
I still haven't seen it 😦
Dawn weapons must have insane low drop rates, have all pieces 3 trinkets 2 boots 2 chest never even saw the glaive
Does anyone have a cute Envenom Weak Aura for me? I just want to track the timer tbh
A cute one?

I gotta relearn sub still... Are we still able to macro the hell outta it?
Sweet
And Dust refreshes
I dmd you mate.
heyas - is the archdruids seal not a good ring for assa? Asking for rat alt so simming doesn't do anything. I see on mplus sub creation lots of top keyers using, but it's not recommended in any bis list? I have it myth in vault with avoidance so
I tried learning it on smolderon prog and my UI just kept screaming at me XD
oops didn't mean to reply :/ sry
No idea
I don't know that ring off top of my head
If it's Uber vers statted it's probably a survival kinda thing
In which case, having one with avoidance seems real good?
yeah tahts me!
Ur so big
Any new adjustments on our talent tree after nerf?
No
3 weeks of running DHT, no ring. Means crafting a ring today
First DHT
gets ring
sadge
it was warranted tho
i mean some bosses last week i was doin like 200k on
but i can def feel the nerf
raidbots include nerfs now?
How come it’s December and the discord icon hasn’t been updated
Yes
What are you crafting as a third item?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Bring back the two Christmas tree or riot!
Ring or neck 
Ring is a nice craft because you can add a flavor pocket to it
so how bad of a loss is today for us? i read that sits about an overall 5 percen dps loss
@balmy condor Is there an advantage to farming a 2nd NoT? What does the extra timestrike stat give?
Should I bind the Branch trinket with Deathmark? 
extra damage

Or time that into KB?
Bind it to dm
Thank you 
And kite orbs so it covers all of dm and kb
The increased damage of the echoed ability?
Ohhh
ty boys
Don't need to ping whispyr for such questions, we are all here
. Timestrike is extra damage. If you have a Myth track 4/4 weapon in the main hand it will be better than NoT heroic. NoT heroic will always be worth for the offhand.
Was wondering what would matter more ilvl by say like 10 or so or the equip bonus on some crafted gear like the 2 different boots you can make. like Toxic and Slimy's
hey what's the rule on rolling for items in raids? some items (tier being a good example) i can technically use but im not able to roll on them in raid. Is it because I already have a substantial amount of tier or something?
Yes this is how having two of them works
So, if you don't have a myth track main hand, you should farm for 2 NoTs. If you do have a myth track mainhand, you should only farm 1
Sweet, good to know.
heroic as in heroic raid or heroic dungeon?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
yeah for sure. i simmed my m0 nick and it beats my current OH for single target XD
you probably saw a non rogue tier piece
no im certain that I couldnt' roll Need on tier
but I'm already 4 piece so I figure that has something to do with it
You most probably have already tired
Then you can't roll on another one
It's an protection against ninja looters
I didn't receive any tier loot in the raid beforehand
just the week prior
for example if I wanted to roll on tier to get the tier legs for Outlaw
Are we using shiv for raging this week at all or is it better to just hold for cd's?
Can use it if it's necessary to avoid death, don't troll a key just for a little bit more damage
so just build a group that can deal with it without you having to do it
because its sucky
It is preferable if someone else can do it, yes
What’s the crafted ring called?
Titanic something or other
But if you're the only soothe, it's your job now to use on high prio mobs that need to be cc'd
with the nerf to blindside is it worth going back to the traditional ST build over the bonespike one
Generally just bring a hunter, druid, or evoker friend to do it if possible though
Signet of titanic might or Ring-Bound Hourglass
Is it worth playing around Witherbark's Branch trinket? Like waiting 9 secs to pick up orbs, or just pick up the 3rd in the last 9s duration of Kingsbane. Or its just not worth at all?
Yes it’s worth playing around it
And should i pick up every 9 secs or just play around KB's last 9s?
tysm
Can someone share the pooling picture
Well I mean you’re not wrong
Does anyone have a weak aura that specifically only shows each kingsbane damage tick floating next to my target?
Does feint work on smolderon’s lava waves ?
Would anyone be able recommend a vault item for me? I guess Necklace or Trinket (Porcelain Crab)
nerf doesnt feel so bad, would even say dont feel it at all
id say branch
Branch for sure
Sorry - I have branch, ember and egg
!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
thank
is it wrong to follow the pooling practice tool roughly in real fights when outside of CDs? I started turning it back on just to more so no when I should just not press buttons
!fuu

Bro you should be hyped as for that crab
Beauty! I was a bit disappointed. Thanks!
is it still a small dps increase to reapply rupture during our shadow dance window as long as we dont allow envenom debuff to drop?
SPITEFUL WEEK OVER, I FEEL FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Fuck spiteful, me and all my homies hate spiteful
it feels like im hacking now
But it's tyrannical now
was just told in a raid that the nerfs are like 33% overall lol
okay lowkey, spiteful kinda slaps, it makes you feel low, so you can feel high the next week
Just ss the pinned post and send it to them and hit em with the "?"
how many PI's are legal for logs?
One priest worth
ty
Yeah because 15% of 30% of our damage is 33% lmao some people bro
Yooo gammers hear me out. I was in a heroic alt raid and we pugged a priest to get me PI. We told him to Pi me and he said "a rogue?"
i was broken with 2 words.
If you don’t care about loot m0 ruby takes like 5 minutes
here's an example
🤣
Is it a heroic piece this week?
Yes
Nice
atal prob
does arterial shiv sooth 5 targets?
aoe shiv does
It also has a really fun hitbox that pulled a bear from 15 yards away in DHT the other day, range on it was really really long
you have to open with Meowdy
I always say Meowdy
im a simple Yo guy
I joined one once, dropped a meowdy and the tank insta left

tbf I'm almost completely silent for the whole run unless I have to say something.
smolderon sucks when you have 2-3 people that dont know what a 90 degree angle is
what is mh ?
you could say they're a bit obtuse
main hand
I'll give you a main hand @gusty mirage 
RL just sended us this after 3 hours of wiping on smoldy 
👀

ok im surprised, when i sim timereaping is huge
I'd like a myth track dagger instead
if you got one of those
lets see the depressing vault
not more huge than ilevel on weapon.
idk what's so hard about getting myth nick, just open the vault and pick it from there.
^
My vault is abysmally bad
sadge
Bleh. Last week of pugging raid though as i got a trial now
there will be good shit tomorrow right
holy fuck this is miserable to look at
my karma for getting
Nick of Time in Left Slot
For sure
Quick question, is the kingsbane nerf huge? how much raw % we losing?
Like 4%
oof, that nerf took over 6K dps from my single target build
worst case = +1 socket
i guess i cheer on a slight ilevel increase on tier
@gusty mirage my vault was shit too... Got a mythic track Sandglass
i dont want the worst case
Already have a 483 one tho
i want a mythic track dagger
like, just any
So council spec for Keys this week right?
man i just cant wait to get a second myth nick tomorrow
crying
i have them already at heroic track. they are upgrades just could be so much better
oh man i can't wait to get my first myth nick of time
maybe next week 💃
Got Nick of Time in vault... day after i farmed all day for my se3cond one. 🥲
Just checked how worthwhile it is to hope for a second nick in vault compared to just farming
So low I might even just go outlaw spec just to try it with a real weapon
if I got a socket on an item from m+, can I add another socket to that item using the vault reward?
nah
No
No KB no Blindside build when? 
I’m going to hit filter
I already asked about that and it was a "likely not"
It usually says in green at the top something like "5th of december hotfixed is in"
or the likes
Yes
and it doesn't right now so doubt
They are live
Weird it doesn't show
Can confirm
Simmed early this morning and after servers went live
Math checked out
Should we only use crimson tempest to apply and maintain the dot? never to spam and do dmg?
Never spam
it doesnt do initial dmg
And dont use below 4 targets
It's just a dot now, so just to maintain yes
gottcha ty
4
4
was the assa nerf to big of a deal or nay?
Sub life is creeping ahead
can check with bis
Hi everyone, forgive me my noob question but, does ambush procc caustic splatter in any way?
yes
think its in the tooltip
Tooltip still not fixed
oh nvm
nah its unfixed
Ahh mistery solved! 🙂 Thanks alot!
ty for nfo
Tight spender worse on BIS
But better for my gear which is low haste, so guessing it's that
What's the secondary stat of the assassination rough?
mastery = crit = haste > vers
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Oh thanks!
!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.
and depending on trinkets some stats gain more
raidbots is hurting my brain today. its telling me a witherbarks is a dps decrease =/
Over ashes?
over 2 season 2 trinkets
link sim
not sim, just the vault selection thing
Wait don't tell me it is fragment again
I mean isnt it normal that a season 3 is better than season 2
Or did i read wrong
Oh yeah
I did
Decrease
no its bomb dispenser and dragonscale i have equiped
Branch needs to be in first slot
that's still a sim tho 
BIS ring with avoidance pog? https://gyazo.com/afdf80e7c3a99da485841b75b35b9784
the rotation feels so bad when no energy
haste wont help u much
Barely matters for any uptime
what u gamers craftin this week, just some jewelry?
they also tweak outlaw im getting energy starv too
is the best build for raid single the same I assume? is it pinned
ring with food thing for me prob
outlaw is only energy starved if rly unlucky or skill issued
In every guide
well im just coming back from S1 so prob skill issue 😛
Is there any way to make my char less squishy? Just did a 21 ataldazr and had a really tough time trying to stay alive when cheat death is on cd and I’m guessing on higher keys I’m just going to get squished
yea but I just noticed my gear sims better with tight spender
replace mastery with versa
my two best options are both rings, and both within 40 dps of each other in topgear, even though one is myth 1/4 and the other is hero 3/6. Tough call, but either one replaces a 456 ring lol
take elusivness for tyran higher keys
Trust me it's a world of difference if you are confident u know mechanics
you will feel unkillable
still trying to get a crafter for my boots and lifebound item. my server is dead cant find one
i'd just take the mythic one if its 40 dps dif, might as well get easier upgrades and ability to trade rings with friends
aintnoway professions is still realm locked
💀
Will give it a try thanks
all my mains are alliance on Illidan, shits a headache
It is
I am suprised if all item wise isn't realm unlocked next expansion
Would be the only thing still locked if not
Things is
they just need to make it possible to put up ilvl requests on public orders
You would have spamy chat again
consumables are already
having to put in private orders for it is stupid
yea public orders are an absolute mess
again? still is
imagine not using addons + a different chatbox to control the lack of sanity in trade chat 🙂
no one with any wow knowledge uses it for actual items
I mean it was more spammy when boost Ing was a Thing in trade Chat
Imagine u still can't pick minimum quality for public orders
and every crafting station is just filled with 2000 random 1 gold orders with no own items
They just have to check the action house prices
The build doesnt change with the nerfs does it?
So you cant put an order up with less Gold than mats cost
not for bis, but depending on your gear tight spender can be better

try and sim it, but other than that no
Aight ty
witherbark! witherbark!
ayo grats on branch
sims love to give me haste
if you have the embellished toxic patch on another piece it has 100% increased effects
im saying it's not simming the healing it's supposed to be 50/50 but it's only simming every proc as nature damage
Iirc this has been a thing since S1
Hell yeah my boss just left for the day
LETS FUCKING GO
Was the case in S1 or S2, but it got fixed since
stuck in a dilema i have a 483 ashes branch and hourglass not a fan of 2 on use trinkets which should i use sims obv telling me go branch but alot of logs showing ashes
Ash with branch is a dps loss
You want to choose one over the other
My sims had ashes at like 3k less dps than branch
Sim it and see the difference then choose based on your pref
I ran my sim on my vault today, it suggested a trinket as a 1.4 percent upgrade.
There was no trinket in my vault. ghosts I tell you
Ashes glass or branch glass will sim best.
Double on use isn't the play for assa.
Ashes vs Branch is personal preference. Branch is theoretically better and it's not giga hard to play properly/get used to.
But ashes is more comfy, especially on some fights. Your call.
That you see more ashes is down to some people not liking branch, and ig it's also easier to get 489 ashes.
And the more people see "top rogues" use X, the more they think Y is simbait and also use X. Self fulfilling prophecy
well well well

!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
would expect higher yeah hmmm
ilvl?
nm I see it
hmm ya I sim for like 217k 476 ilvl
that seems wildly high lol
raid buffs off?
yeah
Good morning @balmy condor
morning
Hello
Pretty sure I can skip most of it with time travel/sleep
Then why are you doing a 5m pw sim
but we do get like bazilion shits from windfury, right


my dslice is still simming
whats the dooming
People realising they deal 4.5% less dmg in raid tonight
ahh
How much would not getting pi affect my ilvl parses?
The people dooming wont even notice it tbh @slim hamlet lol
ilvl parses are fake with and without PI
No one cares about ilvl parse 😎
That’s assuming they played at 100% perfection to begin with
Wouldn’t ilvl parse be a more accurate representation of how you are preforming? Or am I misunderstanding
Plus, buttons still feel fun. Dooming not needed
are ilvl parses even useful. I never know whether to trust them or not. Random people will be like "well my ilvl parse is good" but then when their ilvl parse is bad theyll be like "while my regular parse is good"
my ilvl 100 parses from castle nathria are gigachad okay
Not necessarily.
If you have a 486 Nick of time but see 445 ur parse gonna be GIGA inflated for ilvl
any knowers if logs will make a partition or if we will all parse grey?
Because certain things just matter a lot more
Ilvl parse only shows how well you did vs others in your ilvl range
I only care about total parse vs all
ppl can cheese the living shit out of ilvl parses
Which is why I assumed it would be a more accurate representation vs a parse compared to people with much worse gear
bro wtf did I just watch
Nah
not mine
That poor lad
what do you mean? 
wtf they have everything
You're comparing vs a smaller pool of people
the choice would be so hard
It doesn't matter
Almost like choosing which supermodel to bang
Compare yourself vs all the sin rogues
legit every choice you could think off
Sin on council
