its prolly the best way to learn something = visual explanation from our lord and saviour whispyr

clever sapphire
#

if you dont wanna read its the best source

zinc rover
#

i just read the icy veins guide

clever sapphire
#

if you wanna read, its still the best source

clever sapphire
#

only looked at volcoross

zinc rover
#

yeah, i'll have to read up on everything again lol

clever sapphire
#

but you are doin gar-ambush-gar-shiv-rupture-mut-kb

#

your kb is almost over by the time you press deathmark

pastel onyx
#

hello when is the next pooling video MeowShake

clever sapphire
#

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

zinc rover
#

i thought i had it down since i burst fine, but then I lose dps like crazy over time

clever sapphire
#

assa is like a rollercoaster

#

you go big

inland nexus
#

IM REALLY struggling to

clever sapphire
#

than you slow down, then you go bit high with only kb, than you go high again with dm kb

zinc rover
#

makes sense, thanks

#

i'll read up again

inland nexus
#

are there any abilities that can be macro together?

turbid nymph
#

Deathmark and trinket i guess

clever sapphire
#

kb and dance

zinc rover
#

the only ones i know of are kb and shadow dance

clever sapphire
#

just make sure dance is cast before kb

#

but ye thats it

inland nexus
#

ok so /cast sd /cast kb

turbid nymph
#

U’ll end up using shadow dance and not kb cuz its on gcd

clever sapphire
#

not sure, not using it

#

thats fine, he can just spam it

turbid nymph
#

Yeah

#

Remember to spam it

clever sapphire
#

as long as kb is not before dance its good

inland nexus
#

ok

clever sapphire
#

you can also put pot/branch into deathmark

inland nexus
#

i have this weakk aura timeline thing im tryin to follow

#

anyone know if thats good for learning

turbid nymph
#

Yeah thats good

#

But the most important is to understand why you do it

#

Helps with learning

clever sapphire
#

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

clever sapphire
#

this can also be of some help

#

you should have 100% uptime on both shiv and envenom during kingsbane

inland nexus
#

oh

low quartz
#

is this no CT build viable?

can someone hop in discord for like 5 minutes and help me with my ui

#

and stuff

#

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?

fervent jasper
#

Save both for KB

#

If primary stat>secondaries then why don't we use sopic writ on our weapons?

balmy condor
#

Because 1400 haste > 800 agi

fervent jasper
balmy condor
#

1 agi > 1 haste

#

But they aren’t equal proc amounts

split grail
turbid nymph
#

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 ?

fervent jasper
split grail
#

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?

undone flame
#

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)

upbeat needle
#

!wa

split grail
#

This line here is what I'm confused about

balmy condor
#

TLDR you do both

#

You vanish at that time for MA

#

But you will want to garrote

icy whale
#

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?

fervent jasper
#

Which runes are we supposed to use? Hissing?

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

I would really appreciate the help

And I will invite you to my birthday party maybe :))

No

they are vers crit also

#

God damn brother that’s about as long as one of Whispyr’s pins after he’s had one too many drinks

sweet dawn
#

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.

analog path
#

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?

quiet forge
#

you did not attach the wownalyzer link

analog path
#

Sorry

cerulean walrus
#

Not using Caustic on Gnarlroot

quiet forge
#

i'd say the lack of any tier set bonus and trinkets are the issue

cerulean walrus
#

Caustic Spatter is a banger on that fight

quiet forge
#

also i believe there is no point for using 2x shiv in a row

#

it doesnt stack

analog path
#

Not in row

quiet forge
analog path
#

One at the beginning of Kingsbane and one when it's <8 sec left of it's effect

quiet forge
sweet dawn
#

I'd recommend not just saving 1 shiv for KB and instead having 2 shivs for your KB window

quiet forge
analog path
#

There is a chance I pressed it 2 times once, not sure

quiet forge
#

also no consumables and enchants

#

little things add up

sweet dawn
#

You're probably doing fine it'll just be lack of gear that drags you down

analog path
#

Are those enough for a 20% parse compared to other Assassination Rogues on my ilvl?

#

the ilvl parse is 20

quiet forge
#

definitely

#

trinkters can be like 5% dmg upgrade each

#
  • tier set even more
#

best weapon enchants are about +2% dps upgrade each iirc

analog path
#

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

sweet dawn
#

I don't think you need to use the 1st thistle tea in the opener

#

Just DPS

analog path
#

What is your regular parse Lil Loon? Just curious

quiet forge
#

you only dealt single target dmg while others did AoE

#

thats a huge thing as well

quiet forge
#

@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

sweet dawn
#

Shit sorry

#

wrong message

sweet dawn
#

Copy the stuff in that message and paste it after your SIMC in an advanced sim

#

and it sims all the consumables

quiet forge
#

Ahh nice, thank you

woven bloom
#

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?

lime crypt
#

lemme try

#

!pandemic

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

lime crypt
#

there we go

#

things that are pandemic and we care about is garrote, rupture and envenom

balmy condor
#

It’s not updated

#

But it’ll show basics and stuff

#

And some people can read it easier

#

Crafting the life bound bracers right now, seeing long term I should just craft crit/mastery right?

spice spire

Me fr (I can’t read)

#

yes

#

got toxic boots

lime crypt
#

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

dim estuary
#

i'm only playing m+ right now yeah

lime crypt
#

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?

lime crypt
#

only thing you care about is

runic hinge
lime crypt
#

that garrote and rupture doesnt target the ones that are garroted/ruptured

analog path
#

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?

  1. Apply garrote on each when off cd and apply rupture on each after getting 4+ CP.
  2. Pick the most tanky target, apply Garrote and Rupture, mutilate for splash dmg buff and use envenom only on that target.
  3. Something else?
    P.S: You are not talented the aoe speder ability (forgot it's name)
spice surge
#

Vanish or dance to apply your bleeds

icy whale
spice surge
#

You dont need to vanish at 3 seconds left of kb all the time in m+, its better to use it to spread bleeds

lime crypt
#

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

icy whale
#

Are you guys able to get garrot on all 3 council bosses with one usage?

#

Or do you need 2 casts

icy whale

spice sentinel
#

eleem replied

lime crypt
#

he didnt

#

he asked if you didnt have vanish

spice sentinel
#

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

lime crypt
#

id mby even ask what talents is he running

analog path
#

The cleave build

lime crypt
#

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

spice sentinel
#

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

lime crypt
#

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

spice sentinel
#

i think on tyr weeks, that scenario just pick something bulky and st it and splash off of it

analog path
#

And with no cds? Just garrote, fan of knives + rupture with 4+ cp on all targets?

lime crypt
#

and spatter on one

spice sentinel
#

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

lime crypt
#

you can spatter on one target just for the sake of deadlypoison tick dmg

#

while you put ruptures on other targets

spice sentinel
#

you wil lget more value from poison bomb and spatter than swapping and multidotting

lime crypt
#

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

analog path
#

Cool. Ty

lime crypt
#

on cleave you mostly rupture for spatter to be applicable and energy so you can spam FoK > envenom

analog path
#

I didn't know if it's better to dot every enemy or just dot one and spatter

lime crypt
#

i mean you are not very specced into bleed

#

you CAN

#

just depends what you like more

spice sentinel
#

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

analog path
#

All good I understand

spice sentinel
#

you will do slightly less damage but your cd's will be up soon

analog path
#

I was just curious what you guys do in that scenario

spice sentinel
#

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

waxen oyster
#

i just dont play sin in those comps

spice sentinel
#

im actually learning sub for this reason

#

i feel better abotu sub in raid than m+

waxen oyster
#

nah outlaw in keys if tank is dumb

spice sentinel
#

i dont like my gear or outlaw enough to play it lol

analog path
#

Outlaw for me breaks the fantasy of a Rogue

spice sentinel
#

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

waxen oyster
#

farming more nicks sounds like pain

#

i just want more haste in my sin gear so i can double sophic always

spice sentinel
#

tbh i should just play around with that

#

instead

waxen oyster
#

though have to share one wep at least because 489 dreamcarver

#

is better than 483 nick

#

in mh at least

spice sentinel
#

F

arctic current
#

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?

waxen oyster
#

idk if double sophic actually sims better for anyone as sin

plain moon
arctic current
#

is it not grief to go into kb with fck all energy?

spice sentinel
#

as long as you keep envenom up and get an imp garrote up

#

you will have a tea for the last 6 seconds

waxen oyster
#

could also slam anothee tea if its the non dm kb

plain moon
#

Yeah usually this is where I spend my extra tea charges if I have them so i can be gcd cap in CDs

right right

if you go into KB

then you dont wanna do that last mutilate

more nerfs inc? who cares dont live in fear right?

feral mason
#

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

scarlet sable
#

word

#

i continue the learning grind

feral mason
#

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?

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

That too

desert heart
#

Noob question, how does kingsbane work? Do I need to continually cast envenom on target for the poison stacks to ramp up?

lime crypt
#

I don't like dh more tho

lime crypt
#

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

scarlet sable
#

Once you’re on the 2nd shiv to tea

#

You’re just building to envenom right?

lime crypt
#

Well you always do envenom

scarlet sable
#

Right

desert heart
#

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?

lime crypt
#

In kingsbane

keen spruce
#

for reference. if anyone was wondering what a non-accelerated opener looks like for treant damage vs the accelerated one on larodarMONKAS

lime crypt
#

Envenom on every 4cp

#

Because your 4 set

scarlet sable
#

I forget the streamer who made a google doc on all this

#

Was very helpful

lime crypt
#

Outside of your kingsbane, you chain envenoms on last second

gaunt moat
lime crypt
#

And once you break chain, you pool

scarlet sable
#

so if you’re at 4cp with envenom buff up you hold?

#

If let’s say 3 s remain

lime crypt
#

In or outside of kingsbane?

scarlet sable
#

Outside

#

Ehhh both?

#

I only started today so

#

V ignorant

lime crypt
#

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

scarlet sable
#

so you legit just stop

lime crypt
#

So you literally sit and watch ur char stabbing with autoattacks

scarlet sable
#

Lmao

lime crypt
#

And you just keep up your garrote and rupture

scarlet sable
#

Whack

lime crypt
#

Once I get to pc I'll send u vid

scarlet sable
#

let’s you keep an eye on the other things

lime crypt
#

Whispyr made one today and he explains it perfectly

scarlet sable
#

good thing I have S1 AA damage ring

scarlet sable
#

My dude be stabbing

serene basin
#

Guys, um lost in time, is the affix, raging, not giving the dmg portion anymore? Only the immune to cc's?

lime crypt
# desert heart This chain is the tier set or the envenom duration?

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

scarlet sable
#

Damn why they giving us downtime

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?

lean portal
#

depends

#

if youre in high key yes

#

spatter + bleed spread

scarlet sable
#

Mutilate causes caustic right?

And garroting too often

#

I do not know how to use shiv outside of dance windows

still stirrup
#

You dont

gentle rover
#

Kk good stuff

still stirrup
#

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

gentle rover
#

I thought I linked volc

#

That was first pulls council those no good

still stirrup
#

I saw a "quack" so assumed it was council

gentle rover
still stirrup
#

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)

lime crypt
#

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

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

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

lime crypt

no worries

tranquil flint
#

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

balmy condor
#

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

When 7+ targets is it worth doing the kings bane ramp or do you just fan of knives envenom spam?

#

Of course you’d kingsbane

Kingsbane is your big button

Caustic damage is good

mental sapphire

Hekili might be fukt cuz sometimes it just says to spam fan during large pulls

balmy condor

Why didn’t you start with that

#

Yeah a dogshit addon

#

Will spit out dogshit

mental sapphire

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?

he said assassination

mental sapphire
#

Ill get rid of it if its no good for assasination

#

but why the three ruptures above in that 7+ aoe chart?

arctic socket
#

To get rupture on the 7 targets

runic hinge
#

So you can get 9 ruptures out

Because you have a talent that spreads rupture?

@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+

potent dawn

Gotcha. Well atleast I have sandglass to use until Pips drops

I mean sandlglass is ok for M+ so

#

Also the Raid leaders we have are blood mallet fiends so they will know

arctic socket
#

Would it be cheaper to buy t3 from bmah or craft it

drifting cloud
#

crafting cost is pretty fixed, so just depends if you get lucky that it goes for less than that on bmah

winged sun
#

But if u go through communities then ofcourse crafting

#

Cuz communities charge alot

#

For no reason

#

Well profit but u get the point

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

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

frozen iris
#

So let me get this right. Just watched the new video on pooling. Whispyr say we don’t pool for cooldowns.

shut owl
#

I'm bottom spear damage because spatter just aint reaching them :/

steel ridge
#

Not much you can do if spears are not in range

drifting cloud
#

sounds like a strat issue

#

stacking in camps of 2 shouldnt be big of an issue

steel ridge
#

if its a wipe issue, your raid had to fix positions

#

If not, ignore it

shut owl
#

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

steel ridge
#

No you dont

slate crown
#

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

frozen iris
#

So we go into kb potentially with low energy?

steel ridge
#

if your guild sucks that bad, going outlaw wont save it 😂

drifting cloud
frozen iris
#

Or close to it.

drifting cloud
#

are you making it your goal to be on 20energy 1 global before kb?

shut owl
#

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

frozen iris
#

With the new video out, that doesn’t seem like the play though. We only pool to maintain envenom chains

drifting cloud
#

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

past forum
shut owl
#

I'll have to murder 3 dh's and 2 enhance shamans for the fancy on-hit weapon from council or something kek

drifting cloud
#

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

arctic socket
#

Is it a lot of farming?

drifting cloud
#

you can buy/work order everything

#

but it has a prequest to unlock that probably takes like

I am not trying to get any of it crafted because I’m poor

arctic socket

I just want the helm chest shoulder and pants

Eventually the rest

#

Well I probably don’t even have to have the helm@

drifting cloud
#

well theyre obviously the most expensive pieces to craft aswell :d

arctic socket
#

True

drifting cloud
#

helm costs same as shoulders to craft essentially

#

like 700k each

#

and then 600 for chest and legs

arctic socket

Well imma go unlock old max

you need this somewhere in the chain

most of the time

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.

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
