Rerolling to another spec doesnt help whatsoever

gaunt moat
#

Unfortunately i play perfect so i probably can't 😔

wicked zodiac
#

guys the nerf on sin is already on Fuu simulations ?

loud dome
#

Is pip's any good for us? every droptimizer sim i run ignores it

gaunt moat
#

It's okay.

#

a mythic pip's is about the same level as an heroic hourglass

dark token
#

Not true

#

You need to reorganize some stats around

#

But it's very slightly better on ST

gaunt moat
#

what wasn't true

dark token
#

More importantly it's our bis AOE/m+ passive trinket

loud dome
#

right now i have heroic ashes and hourglass

dark token
#

I suggest doing a great vault top gear sim to see how much the pips is an upgrade

#

For me It was like 800 st dps

#

But it was the bis m+ trinket

loud dome
#

should i sim my gems and enchants before of after?

dark token
#

Yes do a gem/enchant replace sim while doing it

#

Pips changes ur stats around a bit

#

If wasn't much of a gain until I regemmdd

mystic osprey
#

Doing mistweaver damage

#

Can barely beat prot warriors now

#

thank you both

spice spire
#

Maybe for you but I’m different

@spice spire thank you for your service doing log reviews, but since the spec is now omegadead unplayable meme spec, your services are no longer needed

@spice spire thank you for your service doing log reviews, but since the spec is now omegadead unplayable meme spec, your services are no longer needed

#

🫡

earnest remnant
#

you can do sub log reviews instead

#

cuz i wont Pepelaugh

spice spire
#

Fuck you

earnest remnant
#

would if i could

spice spire
#

Same

lucid scroll
#

do you guys still run crimson tempest on tyran week?

balmy condor
#

lot of people don't even run it on fort week

#

can play whatever you want

lucid scroll
#

using this atm, im seeing so many different builds for this week

#

no sudden demise but unsure on the value of it

wicked zodiac
#

guys the nerf on assassin is already incluide on Fuu simulations ?

earnest remnant
#

the recent 3% one?

#

nah

wicked zodiac
#

ye

#

s

#

ok

earnest remnant
#

hm maybe it is, it was ran 8 hours ago

#

any updated pi list since class tuning?

balmy condor
#

bloodmallet

balmy condor
#

that's one of the m+ builds

lucid scroll
#

alright cheers thanks for the help, feels good to me was just checking if there was anything better

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
torn atlas
balmy condor
#

unlucky

#

they need to get on that

#

-3% from that I guess

torn atlas
#

i dont get pi anyway so doesnt matter, but one of the first things I checked today out of curiosity

oak tangle
#

i'm gonna have to argue with my bm that im a better player

#

so if i lose that argument this is a 8.5% nerf

scarlet sable
#

How we coping today

scarlet sable
#

I thought sub was struggling was the sub hate all just a meme

slate scarab
#

It's frustrating to keep getting nerfed when multiple other specs are just as good.

past bobcat
#

If we traded in aspects for wyrms on accident, is there a way to get them back?

scarlet sable
#

We’re the #1 raid dps according to WCL

#

That weekly graphic thing

#

Big yellow up in that bitch

slate scarab
#

M+ we aren't.

scarlet sable
#

Outlaw

#

Tyran week you want big sin boy to delete boss

#

Assassinate them if you will

misty holly
# lucid scroll

Isn't that just the single target spec with a single point moved to IC? lol

hollow mantle
oak tangle
#

any particular fight?

hollow mantle
#

for ej volcoross

#

i cant figure out

#

what im doing wrong

oak tangle
#

you got an 85 for that one

hollow mantle
#

sorry igira*

remote grail
#

without any external buffs, does assassination still performs better on st than sub or outlaw?

boreal raven
#

so uh...poison bomb on larodar

#

is there something i can do about that lol

brittle pawn
#

die to fire you can't see

boreal raven
#

lol

#

trolly as fuck

oak tangle
hollow mantle
#

hm

#

kkkk

oak tangle
#

also

#

you didnt get pi

#

probs the major thing

#

you vs the dk, he got pi on his 2 minutes

#

what a waste

thin portal
#

does anyone run sin in M+

slow wadi
#

i do mainly atm

thin portal
#

oak tangle
#

2-22

slow wadi

I just got a double stat branch in vault wondering if i should try

another week, another socket starege

storm monolith
#

alright time to get back to the grind

#

100% on my first test of the semester

#

feeling confident

native flax
#

how big was the nerf in total?

oak tangle
#

3%

native flax
#

with the melee attacks too?

#

figured it would be aorund 4

oak tangle
#

huh

#

how does a 3% nerf to every type of damage, equal 4%

balmy condor
#

shows up
doesn't check pins
asks pinned question
3% = 4%

storm monolith
#

whispyr are you ready for more of my dumb questions?

balmy condor
#

born ready

storm monolith
#

damn that's too bad i don't have any

balmy condor
storm monolith
#

taking your advice and spending time actually playing the class

balmy condor
#

feels like a trap lowkey

storm monolith
#

looking over all the talents for each spec currently to see how stuff functions, but i won't be able to get a good assessment without watching some vods and actually playing them myself

oak tangle
#

for sin? i recommend not thinking too much on sanguine blades

#

but, you could fullfill your promise to whispyr and ask if we play around it

native flax
#

sorry, mid mythic larodar pulls and didnt think about checking the pins.. you guys are fuhqd

#

talking down to somoene for trying to attain knowledge is the way to be apparently

oak tangle
#

i don't know that there was really talking down, I was jsut trying to understand why you thought it was 4%

storm monolith
#

speaking of vods, i've been told several times to watch pro players' vods so i can see what to do, because a lot of them have ability timelines. personally, i'm still struggling with even telling what's going on in those vods, let alone the reasoning why certain abilities are used in specific situations. is there a way to check for an ability timeline on the logs of those players? i think being able to see it all at once and then pick it apart that way would be more beneficial to me

oak tangle
#

there is

storm monolith
#

oh hey

storm monolith
#

yeah babyyyyyyyy, TWO set pieces are in my vault

oak tangle
#

that is volcoross #1 parse cast order

storm monolith
#

thank you memz, super helpful

oak tangle
#

whether it's correct i can't tell you, but it did the most

storm monolith
#

i thought they removed death mark?

balmy condor
storm monolith
#

ok so i'm seeing he used rupture RIGHT after a singular ambush which was prefaced with snd. does that mean he crit the ambush, or do you just always get rupture out asap after snd?

#

yes i am aware of the prio list on wowhead

balmy condor
#

gar ambush rup

#

then the snd

storm monolith
#

nah he went garrote>snd>ambush>rupture

balmy condor
#

that's no gud

native flax
#

well naturally i seen "all ability damage, meaning i thought everything....then on top of that misunderstanding, i also thought melee attacks were added into the all ability

storm monolith
#

blame memz, he says this is the number one parse for volcoross

oak tangle
#

and make mistakes

storm monolith
#

crackpot theory: the parser knows more than the sim deviluwu

oak tangle
#

but their ilvl, fight timers, externals, carry them to #1

drifting cloud
#

actually its an example of how little the opener matters in general kekman

oak tangle
#

that too

#

but good luck doing a perfect rotation and getting #1 without high ilvl

storm monolith
#

oh oh speaking of that opening setup. so because you'll almost always have the talent that gives you 6 combo points, do you still use finishers at 5, or is wasting combo points worth the additional one combo point effect?

oak tangle
#

you sire should read the guide

#

!guide

drifting cloud
#

you need to go 3 steps back to basics instead of looking at cast sequences on logs

nova flax
balmy condor
drifting cloud
#

I want 0.3% from 2p whispyr

#

make it happen

#

that and 3 sockets and ill be stronger than before the nerf

storm monolith
#

oh god no

#

whispyr is the wowhead editor for ass rogue

#

it's painful that i didn't see this the past 40 times i've been on the page

drifting cloud
#

thats a different whispyr

#

all the similarities are purely coincidental

west swallow
#

Yeah they have completely different pictures

storm monolith
#

understood

#

also i was reading that evasion helps prevent certain charge mechanics. does that include razan?

oak tangle
#

you are reading a rollercoaster of topics

arctic socket
#

That whispyr is a girl

#

We are stuck with @balmy condor

hexed willow
#

how do I get Caustic Splatter to cleave better on Igira?

oak tangle
#

tell your team to stack

hexed willow
#

we're doing 3 groups with 2 in each, pretty close to the boss

balmy condor
hexed willow
#

like its basically on top of the boss, people have to run through

summer ether
#

How am I supposed to compensate for chain pulls because of spiteful?

hexed willow
#

yet it isn't cleaving ><

balmy condor
#

uptime on your damage is good

summer ether
#

pog

arctic socket
#

The token limit is 15

storm monolith
#

anyone have the link for the guide on how to sim? i've got raidbots pulled up but idk how to compare two pieces of individual gear, not entire gearsets

arctic socket
#

Btw

oak tangle
#

so if you add only 1 item to it, and one item to another gear set that's what you want

storm monolith
#

i've figured it out thanks for that

#

god damnit

#

i could get the set piece and increase damage by 3.3%

#

or the trinket for 6.2%

#

but my monkey brain wants the damn set piece T>T

#

.........

#

i can just do mythics and transform a piece into set right? riiiiight? i don't NEED it from the vault

#

surely

#

i mean it's 3.3% vs 6.2%, no brainer

oak tangle
#

idk if you mean my one but i have one

spiral talon
#

Any tips for what trinket is better I currently have both at normal ilvl, I currently have time glass and brand equipped

oak tangle
#

my only tip is:

windows key > "snipping tool"

#

but signet is more dps

harsh anchor
oak tangle
#

white is 483, blue is 489

frozen iris
#

How are ppl hitting 340k on g, mythic narlroot. Like what?

lyric solar
#

padding adds

keen spruce
#

spatter go brrr

gaunt moat
# oak tangle

When you need signet brand, but you're progressing on the boss that drops it starege

junior yoke
#

I'm so excited tto share with you my 3 gigashit loots of the vault

#

gona open it right noe

keen spruce
#

I had the best alt vaults

#

then just dookey on main

junior yoke
#

well I'm week after week having shit loot

oak tangle
#

vault is purely a means to get pieces to catalyse for me

junior yoke
#

AAfter 15 EB this week

gaunt moat
#

Let's crack this vault

junior yoke
#

what do you think my loot will be?

#

2 gloves 1 ring? smtth like that

gaunt moat
#

looking for hourglass 🙏🏻

oak tangle
#

why're people hype on hourglass?

#

what happened

frozen iris
#

Cause its a good trinket

oak tangle
#

yeah but why do people want it over others

thin portal
#

why does my vers ring sim higher than mastery ring lol

royal lantern
#

cus its good...?

junior yoke
frozen iris
#

its the best trinket outside of single target

oak tangle
#

:/

frozen iris
#

not everybody has signet and branch

junior yoke
#

i don't have any

frozen iris
#

or*

oak tangle
#

so why not hope for singet / branch in your vault

junior yoke
#

well it's normal I guess, I don't raid

oak tangle
#

instead of sandglass

thin portal
#

Cataclysmic?

frozen iris
#

because sandglass is a good trinket. Not much else.

thin portal
#

I just vendored my Cataclysmic

gaunt moat
oak tangle
#

right, but we're talking what you WANT from vault

thin portal
#

I mean DE'd it

junior yoke
#

guys I'm scared

oak tangle
#

so it's not that sandglass is all that good, just a stubborn desire to not use branch

gaunt moat
#

hard choices, good choices.
need both myth shoulders and chest.
ring is also pretty nice.
taking shoulders will require less aspect crests.

junior yoke
#

well u do raid stuff

#

I'll only have my 3 bottom

frozen iris
#

... I guess?

junior yoke
#

but your 3 bottom is... uf

keen spruce
gaunt moat
#

Maybe we're brothers

junior yoke
#

if I do loott tthat chest I quit playing

thin portal
#

What trinket would you choose?

junior yoke
#

branch XDD

thin portal
#

I currently have bandoliers and Hourglass

frozen iris
#

branch if you dont have it

#

then branch

junior yoke
#

and what after?

oak tangle
junior yoke
#

branch?

gaunt moat
#

which boss drops chest?

oak tangle
#

nymue

gaunt moat
#

ah. maybe i wait with vault then

#

see if they give me chest

keen spruce
#

yeah my 5 other choices were a mix of worse or identical gear to what i was already wearing

oak tangle
#

shoulder can also drop from council

clever perch
#

does someone here know how to sim like if you had another stats on ur crafted items?

keen spruce
#

DHs use the shoulders for off set

clever perch
#

im having some troubles

keen spruce
#

so we never get it

#

the council ones

keen spruce
#

well I'll never get it

#

cuz we have 4 DHs

gaunt moat
keen spruce
#

Off set shoulders

#

for catalyst

gaunt moat
#

ahh right

oak tangle
#

tier from smold, catalyse from council

gaunt moat
#

yeah but only 1 catlyst charge

junior yoke
#

I'll open my vaultt

#

u guys rdy?

keen spruce
gaunt moat
#

any other bosses drops off-set chest?

oak tangle
#

larodar

keen spruce
#

larry drops a leather dress

junior yoke
#

was worth itt 15 ebs I got it!

gaunt moat
#

yeah so defintely sit on vault angle until after raid

junior yoke
#

oh wait no, that's the necklace xd............

keen spruce
#

good neck tho

oak tangle
#

horrores infinitos

junior yoke
#

I already have it

keen spruce
#

basically just the dungeon version of the tindral neck

#

oh f

oak tangle
#

oh i didnt mean take the legs, i just read it as infinite horror

junior yoke
#

I already ttook the legs

#

u fooled me

#

nah I'm picking ttier

#

I already haave it but 463

oak tangle
#

myth track neck tho

junior yoke
#

tier is a higher upgrade for me

oak tangle
#

just drop a heroic shoulder and catalyse it

#

if you're like me and not touching mythic raid, you get 1 chance at a mythic track item a week

junior yoke
#

But we didn't have a charge today right?

#

or did we?

oak tangle
#

infinite shots at heroic

#

we didnt

junior yoke
#

yeah but what u say makes sense actually..

#

have looted this shit like 4 times

#

on my 1000000 EBs runs

#

ya okay I'll pick neck

uncut dragon
#

So I've been lucky with trinkets. I have a 483 witherbark and a 476 signet band. I just got a Pip'

uncut dragon
#

s friendship badge I can upgrade to 483, it sims pretty well in dungeon slice?

#

but not as well in single target

frozen iris
#

I have all 4 bis trinkets. 489 sandglass\

uncut dragon
#

BUt the signet band does a very respectable chunk of damage

cerulean nest
#

yo doing the dragons on tindral is sick af

gaunt moat
#

@oak tangle @keen spruce Sims shows even if i take the best piece (chest) it's like 800dps
socket would be worth more OMEGAKEKW

keen spruce
#

my logic is that

#

I can always get a socket

#

might as well get all of the myth track asap

gaunt moat
#

yeah, i would take those before socket, cause i'm noit guranteed to get chest in the future

#

and it also gives stamina

#

and bigger number for when applying to groups

keen spruce
#

when is someone gonna come out with a raidbots addon that puts out a 5m patchwerk sim

#

for people applying to your group

#

in lfg

empty lava
#

holy bonkers

#

dont ban me

keen spruce
#

ye but it got me thinkin

#

I woulda thought that something like that already exists

#

probably not very performant

keen spruce
cerulean nest
#

Is the play to pop Blind on the third root set in p1 on Tindral?

#

while second flying group is going up?

oak tangle
#

or rather you can sim them

#

i'm torn between the desire to not play the game right now, and to push my io cause im in realm 100

grim tangle
#

0.6% wipe on tindral on last night of raid before 2 weeks holiday break, I blame the 3% sin rogue nerf.

oak tangle
#

you'd be 0.4% off

naive yarrow
#

quick question - after reading the guides. If rupture drops off during Kingsbane, assuming caustic spatter not required, is it worth refreshing rupture during kingsbane, or is it better to get the extra envenoms in and refresh rupture after cds finish?

frozen iris
low quartz
#

!dagger

frozen iris
#

And should i ever look at ilvl?

#

parses

oak tangle
#

ilvl parses only mean so much in context

#

at high ilvl it can either be useful to know if you're performing significantly worse than peers (still getting oranges) or it can be fight variance in externals etc

strange fulcrum
#

does anyone have a good assassin build to take down the mage tower?

low quartz
#

how does pip's trinket work? Just got it - which stat should I go for and how do I get it

oak tangle
#

i think it just happens

torn atlas
oak tangle
#

true, it's more that i haven't tried, but now we've got aotc down and we're on a 2 week break over holidays i could push keys, or i could play SoD

#

or even poe

#

We only just hit hc fyrakk on Monday and I get the feeling we'll be there for quiet some time haha

oak tangle
#

it's actually suprisingly easy

#

formal juniper
#

At what point during the opener is ideal to pop witherbark's? I have been popping it the same time as deathmark but I feel like its possible to pop after the first garrote from stealth and maintain the mastery buff through the end of kb/dm. Unsure what timing is best

woeful wigeon
#

1/1/9

#

they changed the trink bro

torn atlas
spice spire
#

Ideal is actually 1/1/9 but that’s not realistic

oak tangle
#

1/hmmm/????

#

that's how i do

spice spire
woeful wigeon
#

sim 1/3/9 is not bad also

spice spire
#

It’s always been 1/x/9. But that’s not a realistic request, 1/1/7 has also been too hard for some

#

And that’s easy mode

#

i shat the bed and just did mechanics on our kill got a sadge 46 parse but a kill is a kill

#

some people dropping tornados in melee

torn atlas
#

we did have a healer away for the night and one of the dps filling in off spec so might make a bit of differnce with full team too

but that was me dodging tornados

it was about right here that my raid lead goes "what's happened to memz" with slight panic cause i've got the last seed

lucid rain
idle radish
#

this is giga bis breakdown for pig boss on waycrest ye?

lucid rain
#

gotta do tw black temple for that

storm forum
#

I actually have no idea how to answer this. Current Assassination is like the past 5 expansions crammed into one. I learned all of those pretty easily, but I don't feel like I learned how to play the current one, I just sort of know cause it's like the past ones, but more complicated cause its all together.

lucid rain
oak tangle
#

yeah, the spec can be boiled down to a series of checks for what to do next, there isn't really any proc based gameplay

storm forum
#

yeah our 1 proc doesnt change anything rotationally huh

oak tangle
#

maintain dots, follow the kb windows properly each minute

#

the "hardest" part is understanding pooling

#

but to simplify it, we do not have to press everything on the gcd. as energy and combo points are what caps our damage

void mesa
#

There's also CD management, like when to hold vs send in regards to lust timings, execute window, fight time

spice spire
#

Me no hold me just send

oak tangle
#

for the most part, all fights are send on rip

#

the nuance is do you shorten opener for (tindral / larodar)

#

but that's just pad damage

#

kinda

forest oasis
#

when u sim with a branch, does the sim pick up the orbs at perfect times?

oak tangle
#

yes

spice spire
#

No

#

But it does it at good enough times

storm forum
#

My point still stands. I feel like I learned how to pool in Legion. Learned how to do big openers in BFA. Learned about CD stacking/holding in SL. And now I'm just putting it all together.

oak tangle
#

it doesn't?

spice spire
#

No

oak tangle
#

or does it do it at human time

spice spire
#

It does it at realistic times

#

You absolutely can do ideal

forest oasis
#

just got ashes from vault that sims lower than my branch, gonna take it anyway i think cause i cant pick up orbs perfectly

spice spire
#

But it’s a tight squeeze

oak tangle
#

i'd call human time perfect XD

#

it's not

storm forum
#

1/1/9 is like <1% better iirc

spice spire
#

And the loss from@tucking it up is way worse than having a slightly less ideal time

#

Yeah

storm forum
#

but 0.X% is 0.X%

real stirrup
#

looks like monk is back

storm forum
#

if thats worth to you

oak tangle
spice spire
#

Yeah I’m 100% going 1/1/7 when I branch

#

i don't even care what you will or were gonna type, stabghetti is a great name

after getting next week's crests the only thing I need out of vault are max dagger/branch/neck

can i have like half your gear

open trade yeah

torpid sparrow
#

i came bk last friday after a 5 months break , if i m gonna do m+ mainly and some hm/early mm boss, what is the safest stats to get on the crafted gear? i had crit/vers on everything from s2 since i was sub.i was planing to go crit/mastery

oak tangle
#

how much of mythic is puggable

clever perch
#

Which talent would u say is most important in m+ scenario, improved poisons or dashing scoundrel?

forest oasis
#

the weekly timewalking thing doesnt give heroic loot right?

clever perch
#

ty ❤️

knotty vapor
#

there's no like... sandbox mode that lets me reset my cds to practice easier right

#

because that sure would be nice

clever perch
#

do you really think they care about us in that terms kekw

knotty vapor
#

does deathmark double up kingsbane as well

#

the wording makes it sound like it would

cunning geyser
#

how much oif a hassle is branch? just got 489 in vault but also got My'das and not hjaving to catch orbs seems nice

clever perch
#

my'das if u play outlaw, branch if u play assa

knotty vapor
#

catching the orbs is honestly super easy

#

they always follow you

clever perch
#

dont take my'das for assa

cunning geyser
#

cool cool. Will grab branch

eternal vortex
#

is there a way to sim embellishments?

clever perch
#

ye

#

gear compare

waxen oyster
#

branch is only mildly cursed

#

on tindral

knotty vapor
#

my alternative is porcelain crab and my'das sims higher for me

#

so I run that with branch

#

at least till I can get pips or something

waxen oyster
#

pips overhyped

knotty vapor
#

i like consistency and not having to remember another button

waxen oyster
#

good second trinket depends on stats

balmy condor
waxen oyster
#

if you had low vers robot would prob want ember from brh

knotty vapor
#

actually deathmark specifically says lethal poison

oak tangle
#

kb is called a lethal poison?

knotty vapor
#

yeah

balmy condor
#

Yeah

oak tangle
#

fair shout

balmy condor
#

Deathmarks wording should say weapon poison

knotty vapor
#

yeah it should

balmy condor
#

And not lethal poison

cunning geyser
#

the burst if that got doubled though

balmy condor
#

But the terminology of “lethal poison” is used as a subset of weapon poison

#

Weird wording

#

But world of Warcraft tooltips

#

What can you do

knotty vapor
#

I kinda assumed it wouldn't since the opener leaves virtually zero room for deathmark to be up during the final tick of kingsbane

oak tangle
#

nerf kb by another 25% but make it work like that

knotty vapor
#

and if it did that'd be prioritized

balmy condor
knotty vapor
#

I dont think we need even more damage loaded into our cd phase

#

it already feels like shit between bursts lol

waxen oyster
#

idk whats wrong with that

#

rogue being a burst spec is fine

oak tangle
#

i just want old sustain rogue back

#

i dont wanna rely on pi

knotty vapor
#

yeah...

waxen oyster
#

its called outlaw

oak tangle
#

outlaw is not a spec

knotty vapor
#

I hate watching my dps fall to nothing in the last 10 seconds before cds up

waxen oyster
#

should have seen wod sub

#

you did damage for 10secs

#

then waited another 50

#

for cds to be back

knotty vapor
#

thank god I quit wod lmao

waxen oyster
cunning geyser
#

wod sub was fun tbh

waxen oyster
#

it was

#

but that was definition of burst spec

neat plank
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
cunning geyser
#

and being NE was so broken as you could use meld to renew find weakness

waxen oyster
#

any other rogue spec besides outlaw being a sustained damage spec

#

feels weird

#

personally

oak tangle
#

idk i'd think the dot spec probably makes sense to be sustained

knotty vapor
#

I could never get into outlaw...

#

i miss having cool swords, but I dont like rtb

waxen oyster
#

its prob the hardest its ever been

#

due to fast reaction

#

but rtb isnt a big deal

knotty vapor
#

dont u need to spam reroll it to get the right buffs or something

#

idk I haven't read into it in a long time

waxen oyster
#

no

cunning geyser
#

you can't they cahnge d it

waxen oyster
#

it has a cd

knotty vapor
#

oh fr?

#

huh

cunning geyser
#

so you get a bad roll you just gotta stick with it

waxen oyster
#

and tierset gives you basically 3 buffs minimum

#

at start

knotty vapor
#

where does the difficulty come from? Not sure what you mean by fast reaction

cunning geyser
#

click the shiny buttons before you get another proc and waste it

waxen oyster
#

you have to press things almost ommediately

knotty vapor
#

damn...

#

thats my favorite way to play tbh

#

maybe I'll give it a shot

waxen oyster
#

its like 90% adrenaline rush uptime?

#

with playing proper

knotty vapor
#

wow

#

thats actually wild

cunning geyser
#

my wrists appreciate assa

waxen oyster
#

you’re screwed by downtime

#

same with sub tbh

knotty vapor
#

I find my dps super low as assass and I can't figure out why, I've been following the guide to a T and practicing a ton

cunning geyser
#

sub feels horrible this patch

knotty vapor
#

shit got me sad

cunning geyser
#

loved it in s1

waxen oyster
#

idk i found sub cringe in s1

strange bronze
#

I miss S2 sub

waxen oyster
#

so few qol

#

one step

#

i hate gloomblade spam

cunning geyser
#

oh I hate backstab xD

knotty vapor
#

double step is god tier, I dont think I can ever give it up

waxen oyster
#

sub cd timings are just

#

super variable now

#

with shadowdust

cunning geyser
#

the whole randomly having full cp for 3 finishers in a row screws with my brain

waxen oyster
#

that happened with sepulcher set too

#

actually that was worse since you had 0 control over it

Okay...Raidbots is busted.
I just simmed a 2 exactly the same chests, one is 483 other is 489.
However, it says that 483 is better.

I also just got a 489 Ring with Crit+Mastery and it's telling me that a 476 Haste+Verse ring is better.

oak tangle
#

link sim sir

balmy condor
#

I'm guessing enchant missing

#

I'd put money on it in fact

tawny geyser
#

Running a new one now and then I'll send here.

#

good morning Arnorasip

forest oasis
#

got a 483 branch rn, am i trolling if i replace it with ashes cause im too dumb to time branch orbs properly?

cursive owl
#

i thought so also

#

its realy easy to time them,

rain berry
#

is counterweight a decent trinket?

#

XD

cursive owl
#

dogsht :3

#

chestpiece or belt ?

tawny geyser
real stirrup
cursive owl
cursive owl
# real stirrup sim

we did , and bloodmallet did also , counterweight is far far behind from other trinkets u can get , whispyr, whispyr daddy, aot , and many others agreed :3

#

but in any case sim it is always an option yes

real stirrup
#

you said chestpiece or belt no?

simple niche
#

Does the bis gear from the spreadsheet change alot if i use ashes instead of Branch? Or anyone has a bis gear sim for ashes?

cursive owl
#

belt is better in that case, but chestpiece also has possibility of catalyst 😒

cursive owl
cursive owl
shy pecan
#

I mean, it's going to change if you're using ashes over branch. Don't worry about the bis list unless you're clearing mythic fyrakk and have full access to all the mythic pieces.

#

Just sim everything otherwise and trust that.

lucid rain
#

only thing to keep in mind is that if you run branch, the sim is going to dislike mastery gear due to dr

#

so if you're planning to use ashes

#

don't throw away mastery upgrades

simple niche
#

Alrdy noticed that mastery becomes way more desired

#

Just thought there maybe a bis list so i can Focus on specific items out of vault that would be extremly good in a specific combination with different items

lucid rain
#

when in doubt, take anything that doesn't have vers on it

simple niche
#

Not alot of clear Upgrades left except last 3 myth

lucid rain
#

though you should sim anyway

tawny geyser
#

Well I've got only two options and both options are not good based on sim..

oak tangle
#

i'm so confused

#

why do people sim like 10-15k lower than me with higher ilvl

balmy condor
#

I'm confused too

oak tangle
#

oh he simming with caustic

blazing jewel
#

how many hours until we can meme post again

balmy condor
oak tangle
#

i got one but it's french (i think) non

sweet shore
#

Bis list is based around the highest ilvl you can get everything at which is extremely unrealistic

simple niche
#

Why shouldnt i try to aquire the best combination of items? I mean top gear sim wont tell me which neck+ring+trinket combination will work best

shy pecan
#

Why won't it tell you what's best?

simple niche
#

Too much combinations, alrdy tried

tawny geyser
#

I'm also confused on why a 489 Ring is better than 476 ring, but okay I guess.

shy pecan
oak tangle
#

bis list is a house of cards type ordeal. where they all together are bis, but you replace one item at the bottom with something else and suddenly the entire house falls down and needs to be rebuilt with different parts

sweet shore
#

^ some people really don’t understand this

balmy condor
# simple niche Why shouldnt i try to aquire the best combination of items? I mean top gear sim ...

because the "best combination" you're looking at is only the "best" when you have all of the other pieces around it. Like every bis list made last patch had the 450 very rare ring from echo as #1 ring. But realistically no one ran it, and it simmed as a downgrade for plenty of people, because it just doesn't add up that way. If you could chase all the items at once like a tournament realm, bis lists work. But that's not how the game works. You're looking at a "Best" list of 14 items that only works as a complete picture of 14 items. And then trying to chase the items one at a time. The math just doesn't add up for that

#

Realistically you get as close as possible to bis within reason, and then gems/enchants can "fix" the stats as the final minmax

#

and the variability you can add through gems and enchants is more than enough to steer to near perfection

#

All of that to mean that trying to cherry pick items off a bis list

#

is actual stupidity

wild lion
#

after progress first vault :(

sweet shore
#

It’s even dumber when we utilize pretty much every stat well

balmy condor
oak tangle
#

not to mention this bis list is made up of some items for M+ which are not target farmable because you have to have them drop from the vault

sweet shore
#

Yup IE nick of time

#

It might be the best at 489 but if you have a mythic dagger from raid just use it instead

simple niche
#

Thats pure theory, because Most of the gear is alrdy fix by the fast we using set, weps and crafted items with fix valúes on them. The Rest of the items like rings neck trinkets have mostly completly different stat Budgets on them and wouldn‘t sim that differentes on 483 or 489. so why not aim for these items

oak tangle
#

timestrike and trinkets are the closest things to exceptions to the bis list crap we're talking about

balmy condor
#

do whatever you want

sweet shore
#

Well if you’re going off pure theory outlaw sims higher why don’t we all just play that cause in theory it’s BiS

balmy condor
#

if after a long explaination from multiple people and a theorycrafter who literally does this as a job

#

and you refuse to get it

blazing jewel
#

I thought bro was shitposting lmfao

balmy condor
#

I can lead a horse to water

#

but I can't drown it

#

dude is neck deep in a lake and refuses to drink

grim jay
#

You are our powerful leader

sweet shore
#

I’d rather just cheer it on in background

oak tangle
#

if i had raid bots premium i would link a sim where a 6 ilvl upgrade beats out secondary stats on an item, but i dont so i won't

sweet shore
#

Lmao

balmy condor
#

and whats the issue with this?

tawny geyser
#

Not a good one wait

#

Well check my rings. Vault dropped a 489 one, but it doesnt even count it as an option 🙂

#

I didnt use it in this sim tho

sharp lily
#

What are the stats on the ring?

tawny geyser
#

I'm not chasing any BiS bullshit btw...I just want to know why higher ilvl isn't simming higher. That's all.

sweet shore
#

For rings ilvl doesn’t matter as much

oak tangle
#

in ring's case it's a bit more nuanced as agility isnt a stat

grim jay
#

Did you add enchants to the sim?

sweet shore
#

Cause it’s all secondary stats

tawny geyser
sweet shore
#

So they’re yeah nuanced

balmy condor
#

you have a ton of crit and mast

#

so this thing isn't looking great

oak tangle
#

yo can you touch uo my sim

#

so i get bigger number

balmy condor
#

that might be with pi actually

#

hold on tho

#

we can fix this

tawny geyser
#

How did you get that DPS now on sim?

balmy condor
#

cause I added pi

#

cause I get pi

#

and so I sim with it

tawny geyser
#

Oh I see

balmy condor
#

I can turn it off

tawny geyser
#

Yeah but look now its again telling different gems on neck

balmy condor
#

yeah I got rid of it

#

cause I can't be fucked

#

simming 900000 gem combos

#

I'm simming vers combos though should show the ring as a slight gain

quick idol
#

For double on use trinkets, what's the CD when you press the first one on the second one? It used to be 30s but iirc it got changed to 20. Am i right?

tawny geyser
#

I still didnt take the item from Vault, but if rings shows to be better I'll go ring, if not I'll go with chest upgrade.

oak tangle
#

i thought so, but apparently still 30. unsure why i thought the same

quick idol
#

For what reason did i though it was 20

grim jay
oak tangle
#

i'm thinking it was a bomb dispenser tihng

quick idol
#

Bomb was 10?

tacit lintel
#

whats better from vault between Shoulders Mythic and Legs Mythic?

balmy condor
#

but it SHOULD be correct

#

I'll keep an eye on it

tawny geyser
#

Alright thanks! ❤️

drifting cloud
#

but did you click every neck in his bags

#

and every combo of crafted

balmy condor
#

I did a bunch of crafted combos and added gem sockets to the gv neck

#

since uh

#

that wasn't there

oak tangle
#

i'm gonna do a gear compare with 2 mythic nicks to make myself think of what could have been

sweet shore
#

We like the stats off the shoulders a little bit more but if you have like no vers then the results might change

lofty junco
tacit lintel
# sweet shore Sim it lol

i can do it for sure, but i can chase Legs from Larodar (already killed) or Shoulders from Council

tawny geyser
grim jay
lofty junco
#

but wouldn't i want to get the sim with ring enchants?

drifting cloud

oak tangle
#

i petty the fools who constantly swap gems / enchants

grim jay
tacit lintel
oak tangle
#

yooooo 2.6% bois

#

now what are my odds of getting 2 mythic nicks in the next 2 weeks

icy acorn
#

imo

#

or just get council shoulders and use catalyst idk

sharp lily
#

Gotta love a 483 Hourglass simming higher than a 489 pips or Brand

grim jay
tacit lintel
grim jay
tacit lintel
#

483 both

icy acorn
#

if not using a catalyst that is

#

if you got a spare one just take whatever and ask nicely for a catalyst item lol

#

or set token

tacit lintel
#

its 300 dps difference and i can go for the safe pick (shoulders) BUT Legs from vault are already tier and 486 (so i can use more aspects this week)

cursive owl
#

imagine a 467 ring is better than a 486 one, cause it has only less stamina but better stat value KEKW

grim jay
cursive owl
#

yeh

#

thats why i think bis list is just a showoff dogsht stuff

grim jay
#

They have their purpose

#

They just arent something you blindly chase

#

And you always gotta sim it for yourself

oak tangle
#

bis list is a relic from a time where gear pieces were such significant upgrades that it made sense

tawny geyser
grim jay
#

Well, I still use them for stuff where for example 2 rings sim within margin but one is better in the top profile

#

So I take that

tawny geyser
#

Thank you again, much appreciated. 🙏

anyone seen a noticeable difference in their dps? not too sure if it's because of my double sophic to double wafting but things suck

whispyr how do I compare imp. ambush vs tight spenders but I want the boss hp to start at 70

balmy condor
#

but you should sim yourself compared to your raid buddies

drifting cloud
#

😦 im stupid

balmy condor
#

how familiar are you with advanced sims

blazing roost
#

well my sim won't change a thing, raid leader sees bars on bloodmallet and puff no pi even if i top the meters

drifting cloud
#

yeah ofc

#

on a normal sim spenders is +1k for me

balmy condor
#

if you know how to do copies on your own

#

you can do a copy with the talent swap

#

enemy=fyrakk
enemy_initial_health_percentage=70

#

and then paste that

#

under

drifting cloud
#

yeah I got that, but unfort dont know how to copy the talent swap

balmy condor

copy="swap"
talent=XXXX

and you just slam the wowhead talent string export

I like improved ambush more

So I play it

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but on WoW head guide, shock build descriptor says that shiv can be used for "a little bit of extra AOE damage" along with deraging. Does that mean in M+ you don't sync 2 shivs with KB in aoe?

balmy condor
#

you can

#

it's kinda tricky to pull off

#

but generally don't want to overcap shiv charges

#

and make sure you always have one for end of kb

versed mica

Is that a "you can but you gotta pull a super gigachad gamer trick" or a "I mean it's possible"

balmy condor

yes

Hi guys! I'm a new rogue player, could you please help me with some questions:

  1. In m+ build (arterial precision) - should I use crimson tempest as a finisher always for 3+ targets or I should use it once and keep the dot uptime and use envenoms while single crimson tempest is up?
  2. Does night elf shadow meld work in pve for extra vanish? It works in PvP but I can't combat restealth in raid or m+.
grim jay
#

So you maintain, not spam

#

Shadow meld is wonky, as you need to manually restealth after it to get benefits

#

It has more defensive value than value in restealthing, unless you wanna drop spiteful or something

native patio
#

Thanks!

you can use a macro for meld into stealth. you have to press it twice tho

yo you got me tripping, I opened the addon and the weakaura page and the method guide and none of them mentioned the auto-tricks weakaura macro. HMMM I added it to wowhead but idk where you got it from when you say "from the guide" cause I legit could not find it even mentioned anywhere

#

what talents you guys running on tyrannical? default m+ arterial fine or nah?

balmy condor
#

this kingsbane was depressing cause you just didn't have uptime

#

you repeat all the same mistakes at 2 min, but arguably even worse somehow because you're also just not casting things

#

the 3 min kingsbane was almost acceptable except that tea is troll

#

behold, the void

random river

holding dps so he doesn't phase 😦

balmy condor
#

you basically were not on the boss from 4:00 until 4:40 aside from refreshing a rupture, garrote, and the odd envenom

#

that shit

#

is fucking awful for your damage

#

you basically died for 40 seconds

#

the 4 min cooldowns

#

still dogshit, all the same things, once again

#

this garrote causes me physical pain

#

aside from not doing the cooldown sequence correctly once, you're not getting PI and your procs didn't happen to line up very well

#

which all is adding up

random river

would say sin

yea sin is way more easier to learn from scratch

icy acorn

literally 3 things to know
how to kingsbane
how to pool
how to not run out of energy instantly

@balmy condor

#

I didn't rupture

dapper hound
#

on outlaw you need to know one thing, click procs

keen spruce
#

after the accelerated opener

frosty ocean
keen spruce
#

and t herefor didn't have caustic

plush tusk
#

outlaw is harder to learn because of the high apm. you have not much time to think about you next action 😄

keen spruce
#

for the first adds

icy acorn
#

more or less

#

you dont have to react on procs or anything
just bot down that rotation and youre good

plush tusk
#

and sub can be brainfuck with cooldownmanagemnt with a talent which makes vanish give you other skills a 30 sec cdr

Tell ur raid it’s because ur so ethical you refuse to pad on the first adds that insta die anyways

icy acorn
frosty ocean
#

okay so ass and i just learn the big opener Deadge

keen spruce
#

i thought the accelerated was gar-snd-ambush-mut-env-DM-etc.etc.

icy acorn
#

then you go into the standard dm+kb rotation
when you dont have dm, you do the same without dm

keen spruce
#

then rupture soon after that

#

but yknow

#

i'm not a smat man

#

smart

frosty ocean
#

icy acorn
#

afterwards keep 4p set active and bleeds up

#

Laro has a diff accelerator

frosty ocean
#

ass is good to learn in m+ yea? that's mostly what i do

#

you're asking a fairly biased audience

that question

icy acorn
#

big true but i have to admit

#

it gets quite hectic sometimes

frosty ocean
keen spruce
plain moon
#

Usually you can drop the early rupture, but for Larodar the whole point is is caustic so you drop the envenom instead of rupture

when a large group is being pulled and youre trying to tab to your main target xd

outlaw a little more popular at higher keys

frosty ocean
