if you dont wanna read its the best source
i just read the icy veins guide
if you wanna read, its still the best source
check the rota/opener page once more
only looked at volcoross
yeah, i'll have to read up on everything again lol
but you are doin gar-ambush-gar-shiv-rupture-mut-kb
your kb is almost over by the time you press deathmark
hello when is the next pooling video 
so ye in short, check up on the general rota/opener from whispyr
practice on a dummy
just hitting everything in order is gonna be a big help
and also check your build before going into a fight
you fixed it by tindral
i thought i had it down since i burst fine, but then I lose dps like crazy over time
IM REALLY struggling to
than you slow down, then you go bit high with only kb, than you go high again with dm kb
are there any abilities that can be macro together?
Deathmark and trinket i guess
kb and dance
the only ones i know of are kb and shadow dance
ok so /cast sd /cast kb
U’ll end up using shadow dance and not kb cuz its on gcd
as long as kb is not before dance its good
ok
you can also put pot/branch into deathmark
i have this weakk aura timeline thing im tryin to follow
anyone know if thats good for learning
Yeah thats good
But the most important is to understand why you do it
Helps with learning
no idea what the wa is, but if it tells you to do the same rota as its on wowhead than i assume its good
this can also be of some help
you should have 100% uptime on both shiv and envenom during kingsbane
oh
is this no CT build viable?
glows yellow on tea cast, glows blue on vanish cast
all builds are viable
play what you like
go wild
go crazy
and i go sleep
Oh! I havn't been double shiving, that's probably why my parses are so low. So is there a spot between KB when its safe to shiv or are you pretty much just saving both for the KB?
Save both for KB
If primary stat>secondaries then why don't we use sopic writ on our weapons?
Because 1400 haste > 800 agi
Also KBs last tick is right when it falls off so make sure you're covering it until the very end
Yup, I have weakauras for tea and vanishing at the right times
Why when i was lower in ilvl my raidbot used to tell me for example that 1 agi = 7dps ( i know its not really like that but im vulgarizing) and now with more ilvl its more around 11, do you know the logic behind it ?
So we use 2 wafting devos?
Actually I did have a question about vanishing at 3 seconds. THe wowhead says to use it for an improved garrote or master assassin if you have it. I do use MA so should I just ambush again or something?
so i downloaded one of the plater profiles and this might sound dumb it shows the time left on my dots when thay are about to run out thay wil glow up i shoude renew at that time right? (like in the pic)

Video at timestamp
he explains what exactly to do
What are these mutilate + ambush lines in the WCL? does it mean i had blindside and used mutilate, and it got automatically changed to ambush?
But then, how did I ambush on second ~6? Is this just a display bug?
Which runes are we supposed to use? Hissing?
Yes
Roger, so jsut dump if I'm at 4 or more otherwise garrote first
If it sims higher, sure
Runes are kinda whatever, would generally recommend just going crit or haste runes whatever those are called
Yeah always sim. It has me still using Sophic on my crafted dagger for whatever reason
Hi guys,
I started playing rogue and I am under ilvl for the Normal raid (on main I did heroic curve).
I checked Warcraft logs to see my “parse score”. It’s = 6.
I checked Warcraft Analyzer and it says that I did everything very good and that I should work on small things, nothing critical.
Warcraft logs screenshot: Imgur: The magic of the Internet
Wowanalyzer link for that fight: WoWAnalyzer 1
I really do not understand why my score is that low (parse=6). What does the parse actually mean?(I read the definition online but still not clear).
Again, I was under ilvl at 435 when everyone else was 450+ and stuff like that.
We 1shot the raid, but I want to know what I did that wrong that I got 6 out of 100…
Yes. The character is fairly new, items are basic stuff on it, nothing micromanaged.
I am doing my best with the rotation and I am doing the opener well in my opinion.
Stealth->Garrote->Slice and dice->Mutilate/Ambush until 4+ CP->Rupture->Mutilate/Ambush until 5+ CP->Envenom->Deathmark->Shiv->Shadowdance->Kingsbane->Thistletea->Mutilate x2->Envenom, when Kingsbane has <8 sec left I use Shiv again->When it’s <6 sec left on Kingsbane I use another Thistletea->When it’s >3/2 sec left I use Vanish. Meanwhile I mentain Rupture and Garrote and I do Mutilate + Envenoms.
Is there anything wrong with my opener?
Then I try to use Shiv on CD or keep one if Kingsbane is coming of CD soon and I try to keep Rupture+Garrote up+ hitting with Mutillate into Envenom on 4/5 CP.
Thanks!
P.S: How is the parse calculated? Does it matter for example if you do not use your defensives well or the parses are only about DPS? Thanks!
soo why isnt Anzoh's corroded carapace better than tier? for chest idk how the f u link stuff here lol its the drop from mythic fall chest piece
Our god descends from the heavens and delivers to us mortals the fruits of higher powers (Whispyr uploaded)
https://imgur.com/a/y5ECKjn This is the picture for the above post
I would really appreciate the help
And I will invite you to my birthday party maybe :))
did you die early?
No
Maybe 
Was alive the whole fight
https://www.wowhead.com/item=207836/ahnzons-corroded-carapace dont we want the crit and mastery? Looks better than chest tier piece.
This epic leather armor of item level 382 goes in the "Chest" slot. It is looted from Blight of Galakrond. Added in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight.
and what about legs?
they are vers crit also
with more vers than chest
God damn brother that’s about as long as one of Whispyr’s pins after he’s had one too many drinks

So a parse is the percent of logged fights your log is better than in terms of DPS
Higher number = more people you're better than, so a 95 parse puts you in the top 5% of overall logs for your spec, because you are low ilvl and maybe don't have the right trinkets or weapons your damage overall compared to others is lower.
Yes, my character has everything random on it. But is that enough to make it parse 6 while I was very active in the fight and used everything in my opinion ok? Check wowanalyzer link above
Also you can see my rotation
Anything I can improve there?
you did not attach the wownalyzer link
Sorry
Not using Caustic on Gnarlroot
i'd say the lack of any tier set bonus and trinkets are the issue
Not in row
One at the beginning of Kingsbane and one when it's <8 sec left of it's effect
I'd recommend not just saving 1 shiv for KB and instead having 2 shivs for your KB window
seems 'in a row' to me :d
There is a chance I pressed it 2 times once, not sure
You're probably doing fine it'll just be lack of gear that drags you down
Are those enough for a 20% parse compared to other Assassination Rogues on my ilvl?
the ilvl parse is 20
definitely
trinkters can be like 5% dmg upgrade each
- tier set even more
best weapon enchants are about +2% dps upgrade each iirc
Overal, is the rotation the I presented correct? The one I wrote
Besides the advice of saving 2 shivs for kingsbane
anything else you can advice?
Also, does using the defensives in a bad way affect your parse score? or it's just DPS based?
or the fact that you got hit by a pool or something
What is your regular parse Lil Loon? Just curious
Nothing to brag about tbh
@analog path
about the trinkets i mentioned
just the Witherbark's Branch trinket is a 6,8% dps upgrade for you
is there a way to see what rune is best for me? i select the 'simc default' weapon rune but it doesnt say after that
only the pot, flask and food
Copy the stuff in that message and paste it after your SIMC in an advanced sim
and it sims all the consumables
Ahh nice, thank you
Using the Arterial build, if the packs aren't living long enough, is it more important to get all dots out or like dot 6 and make sure we get full kingsbane tick? Is it a prio dmg vs aoe choice?
idk if anyone answered you, but whenever the bleed starts to glow, it means that its in pandemic, which means that refresh it and get extra seconds to new bleed
lemme try
!pandemic
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
there we go
things that are pandemic and we care about is garrote, rupture and envenom
It’s not updated
But it’ll show basics and stuff
And some people can read it easier
ayt
Crafting the life bound bracers right now, seeing long term I should just craft crit/mastery right?
Me fr (I can’t read)
are you crafting lifebound for decay embellishment?
i see
wanted to recommend to craft engi wrists if you do m+
for cres
but if u dont have that embellishment, then do what u gotta do
i'm only playing m+ right now yeah
crit mastery it is ye
like
what i did, given i was unlucky on tier
is i crafted it on belt
and used wrists as cr
How does indiscriminate carnage chose its targets? Is it the 2 closeset to you? Or to your target?
only thing you care about is
Youre a dog, so it's not expected of you
that garrote and rupture doesnt target the ones that are garroted/ruptured
M+ question:
You are in the middle of the dungeon, you cannot Stealth or Vanish as it's on cd. The tank pulls 5-6 mobs. What do you do?
- Apply garrote on each when off cd and apply rupture on each after getting 4+ CP.
- Pick the most tanky target, apply Garrote and Rupture, mutilate for splash dmg buff and use envenom only on that target.
- Something else?
P.S: You are not talented the aoe speder ability (forgot it's name)
Vanish or dance to apply your bleeds
But I cannot garrot mobs that are not in my range? How about mobs behind me?
You dont need to vanish at 3 seconds left of kb all the time in m+, its better to use it to spread bleeds
if you garrote on target that is infront of you and other targetts are behind you
then garrote goes on those targets aswell
i dont know exactly what the range of carnage is tho
so im not gonna even guess
Are you guys able to get garrot on all 3 council bosses with one usage?
Or do you need 2 casts
Thanks, thats good to know 👍
Anyone? I am new to rogue, trying to learn
eleem replied
so
if you are low energy - spread dots, if you can swing it just treat it single target and splash
assuming you cant SD and spread
then kb
id mby even ask what talents is he running
The cleave build
if you run this, then get as many bleeds as you can
if not, then just send garrote rupture rupture lock in spatter and send kb
even without thirst there is value in spreading bleeds for energy if they live long enough
but yeah thats a cursed scenario and you are taking a L one way or the other
if you have cooldowns, but no vanish
i could be wrong, but its what i usually did last week and i wasnt as behind on dps
i think on tyr weeks, that scenario just pick something bulky and st it and splash off of it
And with no cds? Just garrote, fan of knives + rupture with 4+ cp on all targets?
and spatter on one
with no cd's pick a beefy target, garrote, rupture, muti and st/envenom on one
just use fan to build but keep spatter up
you can spatter on one target just for the sake of deadlypoison tick dmg
while you put ruptures on other targets
you wil lget more value from poison bomb and spatter than swapping and multidotting
but like, i think i usually lost damage, if i did too many ruptures
in that scenario id just say fuck it after 3rd rupture and lock on one and cleave off that mob
Cool. Ty
on cleave you mostly rupture for spatter to be applicable and energy so you can spam FoK > envenom
I didn't know if it's better to dot every enemy or just dot one and spatter
i dont think you are listening, if there is 1 big target or everything is going to die real fast, you just st and splash
you are talking about a pretty niche scenario since we have stuff pretty often, hang back mroe to get out of combat, you have sd every 1 min, vanish ever 2
adjust your playstyle and you will get out of combat more often and this is a non ussue
and if you cant
its no big deal
just adjust
All good I understand
you will do slightly less damage but your cd's will be up soon
I was just curious what you guys do in that scenario
make the most out of a suboptimal situation
i straight up change how i played each dungeon this week depending on what the other dps were like but any tyrannical week is just going to kinda suck on trash
but like if there was a DH or hunter in my grp, id actually just not cd the first pull and just cd the 2nd pull, play 1 off of the cadence
unless i thought i was needed to burn it down fast
fortified it wont be an issue, you will have cd's up or be able to stealth every pull
i just dont play sin in those comps
nah outlaw in keys if tank is dumb
i dont like my gear or outlaw enough to play it lol
Outlaw for me breaks the fantasy of a Rogue
ive got a myth track 1hander but id rather just farm 2 more nick's for sophic and be able to swap between sub/ass
farming more nicks sounds like pain
i just want more haste in my sin gear so i can double sophic always
though have to share one wep at least because 489 dreamcarver
is better than 483 nick
in mh at least
F
Okay for Single target it seems pretty easy to maintain the envenom buff for quite a long time outside of CDs... at what point do you ignore the tier set bonus and start pooling energy for your next Kingsbane? How much energy should you enter a KB window with?
idk if double sophic actually sims better for anyone as sin
you always chain. live by the chain, die by the chain
is it not grief to go into kb with fck all energy?
as long as you keep envenom up and get an imp garrote up
you will have a tea for the last 6 seconds
could also slam anothee tea if its the non dm kb
Yeah usually this is where I spend my extra tea charges if I have them so i can be gcd cap in CDs
some1 say sin rotation
plz
I am yoloing sin rn cuz outlaw dmg was low
and all this mastery gear in my bags
no Yolo fun?
maaan
i swear, if dh didnt exist
would would be better place
make this good
yes
wasnt even good in legion
mydas also wasnt good if i remember correctly
now its really good for some specs
yeah mydas was bin
ive been finishing at 4+ CP right or wrong ?
right and wrong
mmmm spicy
as opener, you envenom on 5cp+
right right
rest 4 cp
thats the last envenom before we blow it all right
Garrote Ambush Rupture Mutilate SnD 5CP Enven Mutilate
CD sequence
nah probably not
Really not insane in keys and other specs beating it now in raid on top of potentially losing PI to bm hunter now
just a great spec but nothing out of line imo
should just buff some of the weaker specs atp
assa just a bit awkward in keys, your main dm kb target usually dies too fast on tyr, and when packs start taking longer your damage falls off aswell
Been getting a bit annoyed recently with tyr weeks having mobs that die halfway through kb and forti week being spiteful, gotta wait 4 weeks to play the class properly in m+

Think we are safe for now from more nerfs?
never
when i do get funnel off on important target though
I coom
abomination pulls in everbloom
my beloved brother in M+ high keys u cant optimize everything at that intermession when u have a shield and every tick u getting 500k spaming mutliates into envenom to get leech with feint & crimson vail (iron stomache) just to live i would minmax the talent during opener with cds or in a damage amp boss (where it will matter) this normal garrot and rapture to get SB will not save my life to do 0.1% more damage
the man's dedicated to his craft
also that's a point everyone seems to ignore when they watch streamers
ay gotta respect it tbf
they watch someone playing suboptimally in a niche situation in like a +27
and then go WHY THEY NO DO THIS
i got whisper in discord alot is being cooked xD

could never get me to be anything outside of a shitposter in this discord or rogue community
Giving out the occassional helpful tip is enough
It’s a simple life
That’s what I said too
And here I am

xd
Mfs think it’s a war.
My name has never meant a damn thing I s2g
You questing?
@balmy condor thanks for your log review video.. I discovered that I had mutilate on my stealth bar not ambush after looking at your combo point waste vs mine and being like... wtf why do i only have 1 ambush
How come it was never @shmeep no. 1 fan then??
sudden demise is sick for quests
Worth going more ST focused on tyran then?
i run the non tempest ap build yeah
I’ve only played art precision
Unless its everbloom or smth
Do the builds differ that much? Or just in damage profile
Overall will probably be nearly the same, just trading st for aoe and vice versa
Yeah interesting
yeah I’m lucky to get a full KB in
Deathmark? Forget about it
I suppose once I know the big prio targets in a key I’ll be even more impactful
any advice in targeting? I’ve always been a tab and click idk if I need mouseover macros
Off the top of my head theres really only a few really good ones
Grats
what is this disguised @
u think I wouldn't see

Bears and keepers in darkheart, abominations and pyros in everbloom, the time elementals in fall, big dragon and keepers in rise, etch witches in waycrest, anything in mid pack and the totem regen mobs in ataldazar, and sentinels in throne
and the bat goons in brh
quake never shmeeps fan
Yeah, i especially added the tag so it wouldn't tag you on purpose
Never seen quake put a bunny costume either
Can we make our faq prettier
it looks great
imagine whispyr is spending his time making educatial videos and writing guides when the faq could be prettier. Guy needs his priorities in check
you mean aug
That too
Noob question, how does kingsbane work? Do I need to continually cast envenom on target for the poison stacks to ramp up?
I don't like dh more tho
Envenom increases ur chance to proc poisons you applied to your weapons
Each lethal poison you apply on kb target, DMG increases
So you wanna proc as many lethal poisons as you can and buff it with trinket, tea shiv and other stuff
Well you always do envenom
Right
There's the envenom buff right? So if I envenom on cd or just envenom to refresh buff should it be around the same KB DMG after?
In kingsbane
for reference. if anyone was wondering what a non-accelerated opener looks like for treant damage vs the accelerated one on larodar
Outside of your kingsbane, you chain envenoms on last second
That comparison is a bit scuffed cause you're competing against different people/specs
the lower damage one has a lot of DHs and an MM
And once you break chain, you pool
In or outside of kingsbane?
If your KB is on CD, and you already have envenom buff on you, you build to 4cp+ and wait for last second of envenom buff, to refresh duration
so you legit just stop
So you literally sit and watch ur char stabbing with autoattacks
Lmao
And you just keep up your garrote and rupture
Whack
Once I get to pc I'll send u vid
let’s you keep an eye on the other things
Whispyr made one today and he explains it perfectly
This chain is the tier set or the envenom duration?
My dude be stabbing
Guys, um lost in time, is the affix, raging, not giving the dmg portion anymore? Only the immune to cc's?
You want to use envenom inside envenom that's already active, but not fast, else you lose a lot of energy and then u'll die of starvation
So you use it ideally when envenom buff goes into decimals
At some point you won't have enough energy to do this anymore, so you literally give up and wait till you get like 80% of ur energy back and start again
Ofc you always want to have bleeds up no matter ehat
Damn why they giving us downtime
You're the best Christmas gift ever! Thank you!
pooling is good imo don’t have to be a mongo dps constantly spamming and can check timers whatever for a sec and it’s not like you wait forever
I’m literally his banner
That’s false
Check a timer God forbid I have proactive planning
actually think I’ll appreciate the downtime can take a second see wtf is going on around me

that shit cracked me up
“Me do prio damage, me do single target, ooka booka” -words to live by
God he’s so real for that
Honestly solved a HUGE issue for me. I’m running the 20-21 key range with a very good lock and an aug, and things just melt before KB even has a time to start rolling. Going to try the cleave build and accelerate that opener and see how it feels
Also the guides have been wonderful from the start- we just are still learning to make our fingers hit the buttons.

what build should i run for tyrannical? raid build but with spatter?
Mutilate causes caustic right?
Yo can some1 help me analyze why this parse % is so low? The only thing, I can see, wow analyzer complaining about is miss using blindside procs but I thought mutilate automatically changed to ambush on prods, https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/2HyrzJWxgwPkZTt3#type=damage-done&fight=36
You have rotation problems, you are using shiv incorrectly for a start
And garroting too often
I do not know how to use shiv outside of dance windows
You dont
Kk good stuff
Shiv just before dance and halfway through kb to keep it's uptime
Also council is probably not the best fight to analyze your logs
I saw a "quack" so assumed it was council
Updated the link, my b
Yea biggest thing I see is your shiv usage
I'm sure there is more, that is just obvious one to start with
Appreciate the tips, still have to watch whyspers new vids probably learn some more from those too

using a standard m+ build for sin I find myself really struggling specifically in single target (note I have no tier set pieces neither season 2 or 3) my ilvl is around 440ish and I get 50-75k dps single target (depending on if im bad or not kekw)
try to sim urself
for singletarget
and see how much dmg u lose
if i have to guess its prolly gonna be cuz you keep messing up your kingsbane skill sequence
like this
well considering I didnt even realize there was a skill sequence during kingbane, that most probably is the case
theres weakaura that helps a lot with visualizing what to press at what time
sec
after importing it, go into custom settings and tick this on
so you see the icons
By Tuesday you should have enough catalyst charges for full 4pc tier at your ilvl, it's a good place to start without reviewing logs. If you're willing to be coached, I think Whispyr still does his deals, it ain't free, but look at the dude's workload, I think everyone here owes him at least a beer.
this is basically what you wanna do on your opener
everytime
(sometimes you speed it up, but you can look into it once you learn general opener)
oh wow yea I htink for the most part my opener was lookin good, but defintely after kingsbane is where I was "throwing"
appreciate the help yall <33
no worries
how much damage are you guys getting off your non DM kingsbane? i feel like i'm doing somethign fundamentally wrong. I'm getting 2.5 ish on DM kingsbanes and like not even 1M on non DM
That seems pretty reasonable
i looked at top parses and it looks like ppl are getting like 3m per cast and i did not understand
Top parses have more rng
if i wanna make a weakaura that shows me to pop my pot at 1:15 on smolderon do i use offset timer?

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Bought a bmah yesterday pulled a wooly white rhino
Bought one earlier
Pulled a swift spectral tiger cub

you mean the pet? the mount isnt on bmah
When 7+ targets is it worth doing the kings bane ramp or do you just fan of knives envenom spam?
What
Of course you’d kingsbane
Kingsbane is your big button
Caustic damage is good
Hekili might be fukt cuz sometimes it just says to spam fan during large pulls
gross
Yeah the cub
But isn’t the cub tanked in value?
Hekili 
Why didn’t you start with that
Yeah a dogshit addon
Will spit out dogshit
Cuz this makes sense
Hekili actually pulls from a shit ton of data and if the APL is good can work really well
So you really rupture here three times?
Yeah well hekili “actually” has been the worst thing on this earth for the last like 4 years
It’s never worked for assassination
Not once
It’s been legit the most misleading shit ass thing
I have ever seen
he said assassination
Ill get rid of it if its no good for assasination
but why the three ruptures above in that 7+ aoe chart?
To get rupture on the 7 targets
So you can get 9 ruptures out
What is better frost mage or warlock
Ass rogue
Blindly following rotation addon with no understanding of why is the general problem
never ever use it pls
YEP
lock if you play demo
otherwise probably frost mage
Does hekili ever tell you to pool
hekili probably tells you to press between the eyes
Yes it tells you to pool
I'm Finally FREEEEE
Got 2 Hero track Nick's and a hero track Branch
Been so damn unlucky in M+ drops
TRU
well they are generally really good no
I mean still worse than a craft
I have the BRH ring and the Tindrall neck soooo
like, some combination of them is what you will prolly have
and the other ring I crafted
Yeah, just like any other ring and neck is really good
i'll take any ring at this point
Reason I crafted one this week right there
I had BRH ring and noting else
i like doing dht
i did too but i still need 1 more kek
many people want to get accessories from there
you drop one and sell it to them for 30-50k
LOL
@balmy condor Is Pips the recommended just for non-single target? I have a Signet brand and a Sandglass to go with Branch so just want to be sure I can not be hated in Raid for wanting it LOL

Pips is m+
Gotcha. Well atleast I have sandglass to use until Pips drops
gaslight them that its good for st
so you have good m+ trinket
I mean sandlglass is ok for M+ so
I wont screw over someone who its better for... I like killing things LOL
Also the Raid leaders we have are blood mallet fiends so they will know
Would it be cheaper to buy t3 from bmah or craft it
crafting cost is pretty fixed, so just depends if you get lucky that it goes for less than that on bmah
Bmah if u can supply the gold urself i believe
But if u go through communities then ofcourse crafting
Cuz communities charge alot
For no reason
Well profit but u get the point
I been buying pieces for a bit and it’s definitely cheaper than crafting depending on your server
half the pieces are pretty cheap (non visual ones like ring, bracers) but the shoulders/helm can go for a lot
so... <5% spatter damage on mythic igira... do I just take the L, accept my raid can't stack to save their lives with spear placements and go outlaw + acro or what XD
Mine is pretty mid/low so I’m paying like 100k if it’s contested
annoying that you can't see the set in your collections until you have it all
addons
Doesn’t matter, spears just implode
not ours lol
we've had heartstopper be cleansed before spears all dead a few times
its... rough
combo of "I'm scared to be overlapped on" + "but what if I move at the last possible milisecond" make for some really dodgey spears
So let me get this right. Just watched the new video on pooling. Whispyr say we don’t pool for cooldowns.
I'm bottom spear damage because spatter just aint reaching them :/
Not much you can do if spears are not in range
Correct.
its 100% an execution issue. but for the sake of not hitting prog wall on boss 2, I'm afraid I might need to load up some buckshot
No you dont
I haven't watched the newest vid but Whispyr has tested various pooling conditions prior to cooldowns and they were all losses compared to just sending based on normal rules
I have 4m is that enough?
So we go into kb potentially with low energy?
if your guild sucks that bad, going outlaw wont save it 😂
thats more than you need for everything if you craft it lol
So potentially we can run out of energy during kb?
Or close to it.
are you making it your goal to be on 20energy 1 global before kb?
I usually just chill and let chain drop before KB
more noticable after opener cuz lust+pi isn't just overflowing my energy reserves through an entire cycle
With the new video out, that doesn’t seem like the play though. We only pool to maintain envenom chains
like 1-2 blindside procs and youll be fine even if you somehow manage to get in that scenario, or you can just pop another tea charge
but if youve somehow gotten in a situation where you dont have energy and also no tea charges you should think how you got to that point instead
even just pooling 3s before on 4+cp is more than enough
I’m in the same boat. I went ahead and made the swap. I don’t mind switching it up here and there and I already had some pretty good law pieces, just need a better weapy tho. Using a h/m one right now :/
I'll have to murder 3 dh's and 2 enhance shamans for the fancy on-hit weapon from council or something 
but regarding igira it really shouldnt be a hard problem to fix
because if youre struggling with that you will probably also struggle with boss dmg
and trust me you really want to kill the boss before 6:30
hardest overlap is at that point
alot of people will likely die to it
Ii have no idea how to craft it
Is it a lot of farming?
you can buy/work order everything
but it has a prequest to unlock that probably takes like
I dunno 2-3h?
every fist user in my guild already has a thorncallers, so i'm first dibs for the next one that drops. unfortunately we didn't get one the last couple weeks
Oh so I don’t have to have any materials just do work orders?
Ooo
I hope the helm shoulders chest pants aren’t too crazy
oh when I meant 4mil is enough, I may have undersold it a little, like its enough
but .. barely
but thats for the full set
I am not trying to get any of it crafted because I’m poor
I just want the helm chest shoulder and pants
Eventually the rest
Well I probably don’t even have to have the helm@
well theyre obviously the most expensive pieces to craft aswell :d
True
helm costs same as shoulders to craft essentially
like 700k each
and then 600 for chest and legs
Well imma go unlock old max
You got it?
yeah but im not NA
I got offered 500k for the DHT ring the other day
Probably shoulda taken it
yo jw why am i instant losing all of my energy ion raid when i m+ its fine but i did a raid and just coudlnt do anything
watch the pooling videos from whispyr. you've got infinite energy in aoe.
Since yesterday i noticed that my kingsbane damage is low on comparison to the days before… and ideas?
Of course I did
Good
15% nerf on Tuesday/wednesday
my too
Hey do you guys change what m+ build you use dependent on the dungeon or do you just stick with one?
Assa getting nerfed this reset?
Y i Knew that But i feel that my kb on raid on friday was More powerful than my kbs yesterday… And I tried it on dummy yesterday and the st kb was very low i feel…

Unlucky
xd
Yeah just got done watching your video. My friend uses hybrid. I was just curious on what everybody likes
What’s considered high end? 24+?
15% kingsbane last Tuesday/wednesday
Oh last
I’ve liked AP in dungeons where packs are relatively equal health totals
ayo quick question, how bad is it to instead of Ashes 2-3 into KB i macro it to DM
percentage-wise
Well seeing as though you asked, not that much
apparently not even a loss after the nerfs
Macro it to kb and it's like .4 i think
but macro to dm is bad
You wish
What's that suposed to mean?
thx
So is hybrid build without CT good?
Or arterial without CT
Cuz often CT doesnt even last full duration
yeah its fine
You said my name 🙂
Fellas, you ppl use SD+KB on cooldown in nymue fight?
you use it on adds
If I'm not mistaken she phrases right on a bad time
Sheesh, feels bad
The add doesn't even live long enough
☹☹
oh, heroic
might just be worth holding there
That's what I do, but I feel like I lose a cast
would just depends how fast you kill the boss yeah
If it's a good fight, might last enough to count 3 good casts
how much overall should i be happy about in m+ with 4p at 461ilvl, feel like im not preforming well at all
I lose about 2m dmg
In this week its normal to feel that way
I'd say 120k
Also depends on your comp
hm okay, not doing that high keys either, with my 482 havoc friend so maybe its kinda hard to do dmg, end up at 100-110k maximum in keys we do
And pulls etc
Not too shabby
Whispyr got some vids out few hours ago
Try and check it out
He got to cover the aoe part real nice
If you are struggling to ramp
Or if you have doubts on what to press and y to press it
This is one
oo nice will do ty:) while here, is it okay to macro shadow dance and kingsbane together? just 1 button i need and dont have more keybinds xd
Yup
Just be sure to put SD before
And KB after
And very sure to get the kb to cast
I don't hold because I think it feels worse
we ended probably right on a DM KB tonight
and it wasn't terrible
You get to use it on the boss or add?
I send Kb into the add because she phases and it lines up
add dies really quick but w/e
Do accelerated opener
Basically I'll save combo points off her, run over slap envenom>shiv>Kb>gar>amb>rupture
And add dies with 2 seconds left but hey i got a decent amount of value
Thought of that
But it bothers me that I will not be able to get the last tick
I saved for add and this is what our kill looked like tonight
dark red is DM
So idk, kinda got cut off
Any videos with a guide for macros for pve
The only macro you might want is DM + branch
Other than that you don't really need anything
Morning all, I read on a post from a few years ago that all energy users have a flat 1 sec GCD that is not modified by haste, is this (still) true?
you can macro King's Bane + Shadow Dance
Oh I totally forgot that one, yeah, thx Venjah
I also macro my racial and pot to DM
yes
Idk, I wouldn't recommend pot, because there might be fights where you wanna pot later with bl
I personally wouldn't bind pot idd
Is there a list of preferred Augvoker targets? Ours prefer to buff BM, but I think that Assa is as good as a target, if not better.
Good luck
I'm still fighting to get PI off the DHs
No, PI is in fact not a problem 😁
dh is no good pi target lol
Ty
do people think high dmg = strong pi?????
Try telling the priests in my guild that
yeha, copy paste it
They also just PI their mates/family
casualy throwing a couple thousand raid dps away
It doesn't help that the rest of the guildies don't realise
When I mention it they're like eh...who cares
I care I wanna kill bosses
as aug main, i constantly buff my 2 assa rogues and bm if both assa's have prescience up, so assas 1st and bm 2nd choice
They're much longer established in the guild than I am, I only joined a few months ago and they've been going years. I don't wanna annoy/upset people and don't think it would be conducive to me getting the PI and a nicer raiding environment
Office politics in wow...what fun
Talk to your raidleader I guess
if you are raiding mythic then your raidlead does not have a clue if he didnt even try it out on you in the first place
I think I will tonight now we're starting to wipe on low % and it could actually be the difference maker
on 1hand, you are an abomination for playing that mistake of a spec that should be deleted asap cus it ruins the game
but, you are allready smarter then 99,99999% of augs out there lmao, that spec attracts that absolute biggest braindead apes in the world too get a free carry 
Yeah, that what I was thinking. How many targets can an Augvoker buff? Only 2 right?
if it is mythic raiding and they dont play all cards, they are just either stupid or bad, sorry too say it so blunt
like
aug can decide 4 people to buff (only at a small 2-3 second window) but constantly 3 at least, so my go-to is 2 assa and 1 bm
last tier we got a warlock trial and he instantly got pi lol
cus it was the best target then
who the fuck gives raid externals (delete them all btw) based on "you are so long here"
im very aware xd, im rerolling from aug after CE this tier cus i just hate the spec so much, still tho buffing 2 assa in raid has given me literally the most free rank 10 logs ever
same as PI on Assa. If you cant manage to pull off your opener with PI bcs of Skill,encounter etc. then PI is not good placed on you. Have seen so many UH DKs crying for PI but even with cant outburst some other classes in opener
always comes down to the player at last
Delete externals
YES
if you ask any aug. they will always tell you they buff rogues 1000 times more likely. Bcs fucking hunters arre all over the place standing in timbuktu . Rogues always stationary in melee where aug has range
@bronze echo Augvoker buff on me would mean Ebon Might in WC Logs, right?
would mean around 60-75 % ebon might uptime on you yeah
you would neither gain or lose anything on them buffing you, in details you'll see your uptime on ebon might yea, and feel good cus you're topping by 100k+ more xd, currently on smolderon progress and our rouges are consistantly at 350k dps while the rest is 100k+ less, kinda funny
so its only bad for the aug to not buff assa
Our Augvokers buff 2 BM, Lock, then 1st Assa, then Mage, 2nd Lock and then me O_o
thats trolling xd
especially assa on pull is insane for aug, MEGA with pi too, i almost burst highest on pull because of the 2 assas
this reclear we only had one of the rogues, and can see he's almost giving me all the dmg i do myself
YEP this is my burst on mythic council
1m dps, 30% of it is assa
nah this is like the first 20 sec idk
the top logs are around 350k
elem sham and balance
like the first council back in vaults, balance are kings in spread aoe
Do I prio keeping envenom chain alive or stay above 50% energy?
You need to get in touch with that guy who was trying to macro Arcane Torrent. Tell him how you did it.
With 4 set
you prio chaining evnenom
I feel like thats what im doing, but then sanguine blades feel abit wasted
It still does good dmg
alright thx
guys i must be doing seomthign very wrong iam doing a good amount of dps in ss and i stil lose round either cause my healer cant heal me or they healer just insta heal them back too full hp what am i doing wrong cause i cant be with such a bad healer all the time it must be me right?
Pvp channel will help
is pip or sandglass better? at equal ilvl for raid i mean
Then pip's is real nice
But I think they're both real good for Sin so it's a sim angle I guess
I don't know if it sims properly but for me sandglass/branch is the best combination all around
st sandglass, multitarget pip
most of the time
but ye, sim for accurate answers

Just started on my rogue and my sims have an LFR Brand and Champ Branch as highest ST, Brand over Hero Pip’s 
You never want to use 2 on use trinkets
Not with that attitude
You could try 5 mins DPS in the dummies in valdrakken with both combination of trinkets and check it out
guys, how to not get energy starved on bosses in m+ ? its disgusting
not possible. we're playing around our energy 😄
should i always prioritize do keep above 50% ?
prio 4set first
Also depends on the build. Arterial / cleave builds have the free ambushes procs
Which help a lot on the energy aspect
And help the rotation feel more smooth
you should see the above 50% more as a passive which is nice to have.
I wouldn't say broken
i wouldn't say broken. It is what makes sin viable tbh
I just seem to be wildly out-damaging other people
on pulls where I dont pop any cds
I felt like I was keeping up normally without it
now I'm just shitting on everyone lol
!plater
though I dont think I've ever played for a time where a 4set was my 2nd highest in damage
A quick example I had yesterday from a guildie:
He was tanking a 22 as a vdh and he did more DPS overall than a BM, even thought BM was really well geared. When he checked logs, he saw stuff like the hunter casting multishot .... 5 times in a row.
Or casting arcane shot
and to think I can barely even get invited to 17s
Oh it's below 17s?
i mean other sets just made your existing dmg sources stronger
Yeah people have no idea what they are pressing
I did too, got this season portals and I'm done
ima go for aotc and after that probably call it
unfortunate
Fyrakk is really simple for a last boss in hc
my guild died after s1 and I just picked up a new one today to raid with
boutta see how it goes
🙏🏼
The bosses rarely arent simple on hc.
Some are just overtuned for a short time considering the difficulty of the rest of the raid
I think I'm doing something wrong because mines is so much lower than you.
Build diff
Maybe
I mean you have way more garrote damage than me
It's not tho, looks like we're both hybrid
my build
(buzzing runes on rn)
I dont spam apply garrote, I just open with a single application for that and rupture
stat questions incoming in 3...2...1...xD
That's prob it, I spend more time putting up garrotes (obviously)
you spend more doing envenom
Honestly true. They become hard when people can't add a +1 mechanic on an already simple fight
Yeah you kinda play differently then. 
I'm curious what other people's spread looks like
maybe I'm doing it very wrong lol
I dislike hybrid build now
Played it for a bit, then tried arterial and cleave and I can't go back
I usually only run cleave or AP VR BS
Exactly
But did you try them?
real
i mean there are logs 😄
Its mostly about how it feels. They perform pretty similar
what do you say to a RL who wants you to swap off M Igira during CDs to target spears instead
true, guess I should look
I find hybrid feels really satisfying
I dont even have words tbf
stacking up all that shit then spamming envenom and watching a bajillion aoe numbers blast
so many it lags the shit out of my game
mmmm
Tbf if you play the boss right
As in place the spears where they should be
You shouldnt need to switch in the slightest
bruh they are not placing spears anywhere near close enough for me to be able to cleave them down lol Q.Q
And still do top dmg
Our caustic spatter is.. 6 yards right?
kk
Cause
the spears are close enough that our demo lock, fury warrior, ret pally and enh shammy can all cleave onto them but my caustic spatter does basically nothing lol
lol
Its 10 yards
are you sure it's 10 yards?
it feels like it tbh
Pretty
it would make sense for it to match fok and ct
not necessarily
cause those are AoEs around you the player, but caustic is off the target..
well we're melee so pretty often those things aren't far off from each other
