azh

blazing jewel
cursive owl

i heard rouges true sub spec is called submissive

spice spire
#

Nah that’s just rogues that play sub, they’re very submissive. Right @earnest remnant ?

onyx swallow
#

Is there any decent play for sin in keys this week or is it just swap specs

spice spire
#

Yeah you can play whatever as sin this week

#

You have so many tools to use for restealths

#

And so much pad in spooky ghosts

grim jay

Play outlaw so not restealthing is actually bad

cursive owl

desert inlet

spice spire
#

Okay endwyr I gotta ask

Is this a bit or is it actually Deece? Or both?

desert inlet
#

#

u should try

spice spire

But I guess it’s time to try

#

Unlucky

desert inlet
spice spire

Maybe it is a high key goat move

cursive owl
spice spire
#

I ain’t taking a shower pic tho.
I don’t think whispyr can handle that smoge

spice surge
cursive owl
#

When sin the only specc again ?

limber lion
#

The only one who smells nice in here is

spice spire
#

The cliffhanger

knotty vapor
#

(the joke is that nobody smells good in here)

cursive owl
#

is it whispyr ?

spice spire
#

Idk man works at a bowling alley

cursive owl
#

oh he is ?

#

btw , i got the call today that im 50/50 fired on 4th january UwU

spice spire
#

Dux

cursive owl
#

so i got more time to play wow

spice spire
#

Sux*

#

Sorry to hear that dog

cursive owl
#

yeah

#

the company i was employed at didnt theat me like a human. they were way to disrespective so i just fked them

knotty vapor
#

just dont work for a company

#

create a product people want and sell it yourself

cursive owl
#

imagine, your chef dont care about your opinion and take private things to workplace so u just look like the complete idiot

knotty vapor
#

it's ez asf with stuff like patreon these days

#

i live off it

cursive owl
#

what should i do ?

knotty vapor
#

well I learned graphics programming and set up a shader patreon for vrchat

cursive owl
#

O_O

knotty vapor
#

just take something you enjoy, get good at it, and sell whatever you make doing it

cursive owl
#

i do creative stuff, like substance painter etc. but im not good enought to live from it

knotty vapor
#

that's not a bad start

#

I went to school for 3d environment art and learned the whole pipeline

#

there's lots of people who sell their substance materials for designer n stuff

#

you could totally do that if you're good at it

cursive owl
#

can we switch to PM ? i dont think its a good topic here 😄

knotty vapor
#

honestly I've said all I really can on the topic, there's better resources for learnign than me, we can drop it here

cursive owl
#

ok

#

i wanna study 3D design in animation. but it do cost some stuff. but yeha i will figure things out

knotty vapor
#

good luck my fren

I’m gonna hit filter

royal lantern
#

why hit filter when you could just hit me

cursive owl
#

thats a crazy pickup line

spice spire
#

Well not historically I guess

#

Not to say I wouldn’t

#

I generally don’t like hurting people

knotty vapor
#

least rogue attitude ever

#

commit terrible crimes immediately

spice spire
#

Nah I’m definitely a protector.

@balmy condor thank you, your advice about looking at my log review tugged at a thread that ended with me realising I've been playing with 150ms lag tolerance and gimping myself out of DPS on every character since SoD mythic progression

spice spire
oak ember
#

Will lariat ever be relevant? I'm full sockets and it still sims kinda bad

royal lantern
#

not really

knotty vapor
slate crown
#

Taking a look now

slate crown
oak tangle
spice spire
oak tangle
#

it also meant whenever i took annual leave or sick days, i was paid at call worker rates

#

some dog policy

knotty vapor
#

I play with pretty low latency, but I notice not being able to get off ambush in the last second or so of shadow dance

spice spire
#

No it wasn’t

#

Actually it’s a setting in game

knotty vapor
#

oh

spice spire
knotty vapor
#

I dont see that option anywhere

oak tangle
#

does that have an effect on off gcd spells?

crisp pine
lime crypt
slate crown
#

Oh I'm pretty sure I fixed that a while ago

#

What version of the WA do you have?

lime crypt
#

i just imported it today

#

lemme import copy

crisp pine
slate crown
#

Oh no I see it

#

I fixed that in the Sub version

spice spire
#

I don’t want to know the answer

spice spire
#

But I’ll read it despairge

slate crown
# lime crypt i just imported it today

New version just uploaded of the whole pack, let me know if you want the SnD import string standalone so you don't have to pull the whole pack in, I see you've modified it quite a bit

cursive owl
lime crypt
#

may i have only snd string

#

so i can just replace it

cursive owl
#

snd is easy to make in wa O-o ? or is it a preset wa from Lisonna ?

spice spire
#

Preset WA from LE is what I’m gathering Hmm

oak tangle
#

quake, those cast timer settings are not base game

crisp pine
#

I still can't get over this

#

What is its purpose

#

I need to know

slate crown
crisp pine
#

Is that a macro you bound on fucking "uwu"?

#

What is happening

slate crown
cursive owl
#

UwU

slate crown
#

but yeah doesn't have anything fancy in it

lime crypt
#

thank you king

slate crown
#

np

cursive owl
#

do you know that UwU is just an Emote and nothing else ?

#

maybe just a troll button

crisp pine
#

Theres an UwU emote?

cursive owl
#

it is an emote itsself

crisp pine
#

God I fucking hate outlaw rogues

cursive owl
#

U are closed Eyes and w is cat mouth

#

its like OwO with open eyes

crisp pine
#

Oh yea

#

That still doesn't tell me what the purpose of the UwU Button is

cursive owl
#

KEKW

spice spire
cursive owl
#

i dunno

cursive owl
crisp pine
#

@lime cryptI need answers

spice spire
#

No big dog

cursive owl
spice spire
#

No we don’t need answers

slate crown
#

The macro's text
/run PlaySoundFile("Interface\CustomSounds\UwUTouchMeThereSenpai.ogg", "Master")

cursive owl
#

LOL

cursive owl
#

i wanna have this

limber lion
#

But it legit does not matter

#

You can play with 1k ping and do the same dps

limber lion
#

It's just a preference thing

spice spire
slate crown
#

Idn I don't have the file

#

ask Sanko

spice spire
#

It actually did matter

cursive owl
lime crypt
limber lion
oak tangle
#

how does lag tolerance help us

spice spire
#

He was .015s off of final tick of kb matching with dm

#

Because of the lag tolerance

lime crypt
#

no

spice spire
#

So he’s been missing his final ticks the entire time

lime crypt
#

its just custom audio file

spice spire
#

Because the kb window was that tight

cursive owl
#

ok another blocklist candidate

spice spire
#

And he didn’t shiv before

limber lion
#

That's not how lag tolerance works

crisp pine
lime crypt
#

UwU macro does
/me twerks

#

again

limber lion
#

Just means he didn't press it early enough

lime crypt
#

dont ask why

crisp pine
#

holy fuck

lime crypt
#

i told you

#

ignorance is a bliss

spice spire
oak tangle
#

lag tolerance is just spell queuing, not sure how it would help

limber lion
#

Just means the man literally stopped pressing buttons and presses kb .015s too late

crisp pine
spice spire
lime crypt
#

i have to balance not playing vulpera somehow

spice spire
#

It fixed it Shruge

oak tangle
#

the only point where lag tolerance would matter, is on outlaw with it's .5s gcd

limber lion
#

Also missing out on .015s of DM does not change anything (actually nvm ld gg)

spice spire
lime crypt
limber lion
#

But yeh what fixes it is pressing the button during the GCD and setting up spellqueue properly

#

But fair enough

lime crypt
#

stop asking questions now i feel embarassed the more you ask

limber lion
#

If it fixes it and he does more dps

#

What do I know

spice spire
#

Yeah this is like a edge wall 0.0000001% weird ass case

#

99% of the time it won’t matter

#

With a lotta 9s

crisp pine
oak tangle
#

i mean my spells that are even macrod together (dance/kb) with no gcd lock are sometimes out 50-100 ms

#

some horse shit

night delta
#

Just wanna put that out there : had 1st Volcoross down yesterday, kill timer was 4:10

#

Feelsbadman

that's us now

Lisonna u can get all the cute frogs u want :3

spice spire

#

but ure cute tho Arnorasip

slate crown
spice spire
#

LE is a good lass and I appreciate all of the work she does with weak auras SoCute

#

It helps a lot of the homies out

limber lion
#

Actually come to think of it

#

What the fuck is lag tolerance

#

Does it just delay all gcds you press

#

What's the point of that?

dark token
#

I think they are talking about spellqueuewindow setting or there is a setting actually called lag tolerance

lime crypt
#

if that makes sense

dark token
#

Low vs high etc

lime crypt
#

thats something in weakaura?

dark token
#

Yeah

slate crown
#

It's a general concept in wow

#

but you can set it in a wa yes

#

Also

dark token
#

There is a setting on display called frame strata

slate crown
#

Afaik, two auras that share the same strata

#

Are layered by WA based on their order in the WA list

#

I am pretty sure

#

I haven't had to mess with that in a long time because of dynamic groups which I now use, but IIRC when I last checked WA let you manually order within the strata by the WA list

knotty vapor
#

@slate crown I have a quick question about a WA I'm trying to set up, do you mind if I dm you?

#

when you're free

slate crown
slate crown
#

(I'm also not the only one here who is proficient in WA, you're free to ask here as well, there are many people in this chat that are knowledgeable)

#

But my dms are open

spice spire
#

Can verify. LE very helpful and very open to DMs 🫡

weary badger
#

so whats the dps loss from having to open with vanish cuz tank wait to clear shades

spice spire
#

0,
Just pad on ghosts to make up

#

You can also dance

lime crypt
#

dynamic group is automatically sorting things under eachother

#

is there a way to make it sort to the side?

dark token
#

Ye there is a grow order

#

In group settings

weary badger
#

how do we do burst on EB 2nd boss?

#

KB one and just garrote with Indis Carnage and Rupture other then finish combo on main target

#

is that it

#

or dual / multi bosses in general

lime crypt
dark token
#

And use garrote rather than ambush

lime crypt
#

maaaaan

#

tinkering with weakauras

limber lion
#

You always garrote once during dance

lime crypt
#

and making them actually work

#

is the best feeling ever

limber lion
#

No extra garrotes needed

slate crown
lime crypt
#

now that everything works

#

im just slowly falling deeper and deeper into depression, because im starting to realize, that hte problem was me all along

dark token
#

Like 5t you want to garrote more

#

Below 3t it's the same prob

umbral summit
# limber lion You can play with 1k ping and do the same dps

incorrect. i was playing at 150ms, which means a gap between global ending and new global starting, which meant that every single Deathmark I pressed ended before the final tick of Kingsbane, gimping the damage, it also meant that I was using about 15% less GCDs than other Outlaw players since the GCD is 0.4sec during AR

spice spire
#

We went through this already

dark token
#

But the extra empowered garrote uptime on secondary targets might be worth a tradeoff of less dam from ambush anyway

spice spire
#

You were a really weird case

#

For 99.9999999999% of people that setting means nothing

#

But you had it twitched up and it was a really slim window

umbral summit
#

ye

spice spire
#

So it mattered

#

It offset, it fixed

#

We did it

#

Bless up

umbral summit
#

it's an old setting which I forgot about, it's really bad if you're playing OL though just FYI

#

it also made me realise my brain is too old to play OL

spice spire
#

You’re the one in a krillion they speak of

umbral summit
#

also just for my autism to add to the discussion spell queue window and lag tolerance are the same thing

#

but it shouldn't matter for anyone because you need to go out of your way to mess with it

#

although I did bring it up in my guild discord and there's a fury warrior who's had it set to 40ms without knowing for years

spice spire
#

🫡

umbral summit
#

so I feel like I paid it forward

weary badger
#

in kb/dance do we always use ambush? or throw in some mutis

spice spire
spice spire
lime crypt
#

and now im off to reroll on DH

spice spire
limber lion
limber lion
#

What is the point of lag tolerance?

slate crown
limber lion
#

Why would you ever use that

#

What's the point of not wanting to use gcds b2b

umbral summit
#

it feels 'responsive' and I can be OKAY if you're not a global locked spec

lime crypt
limber lion
#

I can understand messing around with spellqueue to change how often or how early you can press stuff

lime crypt
#

better

#

XD

limber lion
#

But I don't see a world where delaying all gcds by any amount is worth it

umbral summit
limber lion
#

Still energy starved

umbral summit
limber lion
#

Still 8 gcds

umbral summit
#

so you can change your next global dynamically

limber lion
#

That's not true according to what you said

umbral summit
#

it is, it's the same as spell queue window

limber lion
#

Spell queue and lag tolerance are completely different things

#

Spell queue refers to queueing abilities beforehand during a gcd

#

Lag tolerance according to this convo refers to delaying gcds by a fixed amount

#

You can have a high spell queue and a low lag tolerance

#

Or vice versa

#

If you had a spell queue of 500, you would be able to press your next gcd 0.5s early

native heron
#

what build is everyone running this week?

limber lion
#

And lag tolerance would thus send it 0.65s after

#

And always the 0.15s late

#

I see no world where that would ever be of value ever

umbral summit
#

idk what to tell you, all the UI addons that have an interface to change the spell queue window call it lag tolerance

#

I didn't develop the addon

limber lion
#

So

#

This is exactly what I was saying earlier

#

If you think spell queue and whatever this is is the same

#

Aight let me look at the log

umbral summit
#

it is, all this does is change the spell queue window

limber lion
#

Exactly

#

So

#

What I said earlier stands

#

And yoy changing that number CHANGES NOTHING

umbral summit
#

yes it does

limber lion
#

Spell queue is like pandemic

umbral summit
#

it was set to 150ms

limber lion
#

What number did you set it to?

umbral summit
#

I was gapping globals

limber lion
#

You do not understand spell queue

umbral summit
#

jfc yes I do

limber lion
#

Read what I just said

umbral summit
#

it was too short a window

limber lion
#

Too short a window?

#

So you increased the number?

umbral summit
#

yes to 400

limber lion
#

That's odd

#

I play at 100

#

And I have never missed a gcd in my life

#

How much is your ping exactly

spice spire
umbral summit
#

around 40

limber lion
#

after

#

40 ping?

spice spire
#

I didn’t mean to respond

umbral summit
#

yeah

limber lion
#

and you use 400 spell queue

#

what

umbral summit
#

I do now

limber lion
#

that's just not how anything works

#

I'm guessing you literally press each button literally once

#

and never spam

umbral summit
#

400 is literally the default since 7.2

spice spire
#

After makes window tight

dark token
#

Spellqueuewindow is a setting that depends upon how fast u personally press keys

lime crypt
#

dont spell queue

limber lion
lime crypt
#

i mean mby for assa it doesnt really matter

limber lion
#

But "lag tolerance" does not make you lose gcds

lime crypt
#

as its not super reactive

limber lion
#

that's not how anything works

dark token
#

I measured my key presses and it's around 5 per second so I use a spell queue window of 200 + my ping

umbral summit
#

I press about 4 times per second

#

every 250ms

#
  • 40ms
limber lion
#

I'm sitting at 60 ms myself

#

And I never lose gcd's

spice spire
#

Sux

#

In this case it wasn’t gcds it was the dm expiring literal ms before final tick of kb. Unlucky crit rng but damage on final is less than penultimate

#

That’s kinda what pointed this one

dark token
#

It also depends how close to the gcd you press keys

limber lion
#

Yeah that just means that the man literally just didn't press the button early enough

#

Look at the other gcds

#

There's no gaps between ambush and rupture

#

but there is gaps right there

#

there's no correlation

dark token
#

If you do 1 press per second but it's rhythmically 50ms before the gcd ur fine

spice spire
#

This is a common correlation I’ve been seeing In a lot of log review

limber lion
#

If that was the case, it would be the case for every single gcd

twilit star
#

what is pandemic rupture? i dont see anythign in tree

spice spire
#

If it’s not on the singular correct push it’s real tight

umbral summit
spice spire
limber lion
#

buttons that didn't register?

#

that's not a thing

#

You press a button, something happens

twilit star
umbral summit
#

if you set your spell queue to 0, and press a button during a global, what happens after the global

#

nothing

limber lion
#

Explain this

umbral summit
#

so if it's set to 150, plus 40, if I don't press 190ms before the global ends... a gap!

limber lion
#

Which means that you weren't pressing your buttons enough

#

Which is the exact thing here

umbral summit
#

or instead of working on fitting more button mashes into a second, I can... extend the spell queue window and not have to worry about leaving gaps

limber lion
#

Exactly that's how it works

#

Now you're changing the narrative a bit

umbral summit
#

no I'm not

limber lion
#

That's exactly what I was saying previously

umbral summit
#

this has been my very fixed narrative since I realised I had it set too low

limber lion
#

Literally means that you weren't pressing your buttons enough

#

and the reason you lost gcd's

#

is not because of "lag"

#

it's because that's when you pressed the button

umbral summit
#

I didn't say it was because of lag

#

I said the spell queue window in addons is called lag tolerance

#

I sent a screenshot, you saw it

limber lion
#

Yes

umbral summit
#

and I am pressing the buttons 'enough', I'm pressing 4-5 times per second, I just wasn't pressing enough for the legacy setting I forgot I'd set

#

now that I am back at default, there are no gaps

limber lion
#

You saying that "I missed out on KB + DM by 0.015s" and then noticing that spell queue is set to 150

#

is not a thing

#

just happens to be the same number by chance I guess unlucky

#

But yeah anyways

#

As long as it works now, doesn't matter

umbral summit
#

I've checked my other logs, despite spamming my buttons and following the correct priority of DM > Shiv > Dance > KB, my DM always expired prior to Kingbane's last tick

#

and now I've done some testing and it doesn't

#

and I am very pleased

limber lion
#

I personally play with 200 spell queue nowadays to ease my hands a bit, but I used to play with 100 back in the day

limber lion
#

We went over this

#

Also, you don't even have to spam

#

just press the button just before the gcd ends

#

Anyways, as long as it works, it's fine

we talked about this, I am, 4-5 times per second with 190ms spell queue window means there is gap potential

limber lion
#

Yes

umbral summit
#

you showed sometimes there are not and sometimes there are

limber lion
#

maybe we categorize spamming a bit differently

#

consistently pressing buttons 4 times a second is not spamming to me

#

spamming it during the gcd and especially towards the latter half of it

#

is

#

to me

umbral summit
#

fair

limber lion
#

but yeah as long as it works for you, it's all good

umbral summit
#

spare a thought for the Warrior in my guild who had it set to 40ms though

#

that really would make a difference

limber lion
#

400 is personally too big of a window for me, but then again I know someone who plays with like 600

limber lion
desert inlet
#

Mine still might be on 40

umbral summit
#

I might experiment with 300, Outlaw is literally unplayable

desert inlet
limber lion
#

I was playing at 100 for the longest time, but I changed it to 200 a year or 2 ago because I had finger issues

umbral summit
#

since it has a 400ms GCD under AR

limber lion
#

and now I never get any pain and I never miss gcds

desert inlet
#

I should increase

dark token

It's 800

#

Fyi

Nope. I’m just an idiot

thorn fjord
#

Play with it off or just lower the timing?

earnest remnant
#

people play with a lot of different stuff, all it does it change the window of registering your next ability (how long before you can queue it)

dark token
#

Play with spellqueuewindow 1200

#

You need to predict abilities 1 gcd before they happen

#

5head gameplay

thorn fjord
#

Assuming this is client based?

limber lion
#

It's preference

#

I played with 100 spell queue back in the day because I was a spammer

thorn fjord
#

I mean the values... if i set it on my laptop i'll have to set it on my pc too?

limber lion
#

Now I've raised it up to 200 to lessen the spamming a bit, but still allowing reactive gameplay

#

Yes

#

maybe

#

actually now

#

no

#

I think it's account-bound

thorn fjord
#

gonna try turning it off

#

then make my way back to 400

#

Never messed around with this

limber lion
#

Never turn it off fully

#

100 is like the minimum I would ever recommend for anyone

#

0.1s leeway

balmy condor
#

Some cvars are character specific

limber lion
#

You simply cannot press gcd's the same fraction of a second that the gcd is ready

balmy condor
#

But I think they save account wide

limber lion
#

and you introduce ms and lag to it and that introduces gaps

thorn fjord
#

Holy shit

limber lion
#

I think there's some ms + 50 rule or something that people follow

#

or was it ms + 150

#

can't remember

balmy condor
#

There’s probably different save rules

thorn fjord
#

100 already feels way better for OL lol

limber lion
#

Yeh law definitely needs a lower queue

#

#

idk bro

#

i lost it yesterday when a friend of mine started saying hunter guides / tcs are wrong

#

and I asked why, their reasoning was like

#

4 mm logs on smodleron mythic, and 2 of them or something changed 1 spell in opener sequence

balmy condor
#

Oh

static glacier
#

I asked, why not message the guide writer

#

"no point, they're just wrong"

#

I fucking lost it

#

as a previous wow guidewriter

#

they have NO idea

#

how much time is spent

balmy condor
#

I thought they were going to have a well thought out position about how much of a piece of shit said person is

#

And I would’ve been forced to agree

#

But that’s pretty bad

static glacier
#

nah, was litterally criticising the guide saying to not open with harpoon on volcross (it puts you in narnia, bit like teros)

#

and then pretending mm opener was wrong cus some logs switched the order of rapid fire

#

with 1 spell

#

and it just doesn't matter

pulsar leaf
#

the SIn guide is crazy indepth showing every known talent build and why

#

Ret was just pick this

litterally went to azor directly and asked, his response was this kinda thing doesn't matter in opener

#

thing is a guide doesn't have to give theoretical exp

balmy condor
#

I don’t wish it upon my worst enemy

like not a single message in hunter disc

Quick question, how should i approch M+ pack to pack as Sin? I feel like in many smaller pulls or pulls without a clear prio target my damage is quite poor. If i can get my opening off and my cooldowns down with most of its value my damage is great but pack to pack this happens quite seldom. How do you approach a pack of 4-9 targets to get your damage off? i feel like most of the time the pack is near dead when my setup is done and my aoe can "start". Would appriciate help. 🙂

Someone got a WA to see how many stacks of branch u have ?

tho I usually recommend just starting at 200 and testing from there

I have done lots of research, and tried many different things, and am working on setting up logging as well, but just wondering if any expereinced rogues would mind chatting for a few brief min with me about ass / sub. I have watched / read many guides, and feel like I understand the spec decently well, but am having a very hard time. I have some medical conditions that make it pretty rough to focus / play, and my nerve dmg is pretty rough, but I really want to improve and put in the effort. If anyone is willing please hop in gen 1 chat if you have a few min. Thanks so much, hope everyone is having a great holiday seasson so far

What's spatter duration?

plucky sparrow

10s iirc

storm monolith
#

Ok nvm that makes sense

grim jay
#

you keep spatter up anyways

#

and fok on 3+ while its up

static glacier
#

yes, thats what I said

grim jay
#

yeah kinda saw it after reading it multiple times

#

it came across differently the first few times

#

sorry

static glacier
#

my wording is cooked xd

grim jay
#

same

static glacier
storm monolith
#

Well think of it this way:
Which does more damage? Mutilate a couple times then envenom for cleave, or envenom every other gcd due to FoK?

#

Only other combo spenders are rupture and tempest, and tempest lasts a good while along with rupture being considered part of maintenance with garrote

plucky sparrow
#

Changing subject. Anyone else feeling the nerfs, more so on the cleave/AoE side? I feel like ST is balanced now (maybe a tad too conservative) but I feel like AoE/Cleave is now subpar

storm monolith
#

Wouldn't be able to say, sadly. I'm still green when it comes to the class. Highest key ive cleared is a 10. Everything just kinda blows up

in cds aoe is still very potent, outside depends on a few factors

I personally think if you want higher m+ outlaw is better with more survival and consistant damage to kill things like swarm, thorns, etc

plucky sparrow

I do 18-25 keys on multiple classes mostly. Overall damage saw a significant decrease compared to last week. In fact. a DH I run with saw his overall damage take a hit also (rightfully so) but the gap between I feel has widened. ..

You guys cannot be feel crafting losing 5,400 dps in here

grim jay
#

I mean it shouldnt be too noticeable overall in keys

plucky sparrow
#

while on paper it's 3%, there are still some variables both known and unknown that play a factor. Mileage may vary from case to case, but in my experience with my mid 20 keys I have personally noticed a larger decrease than 3%.

!spiteful

#

!restealth

prisma monolithBOT
#

Long In-depth explanation of why restealths aren't as important as you might think:
https://youtu.be/DoZDPFk_Zog
The TLDW (I understand, it's LONG):

  • Garrote does roughly 14% of your damage overall in a key. This means from 100% improved garrote uptime to 0% improved garrote uptime, you would be losing 4.6% of your overall damage
  • This is compounded by the fact that you simply do not lose that many restealths
  • You still have vanish and in 10.2, shadow dance, which gives you MANY options to get your stealth effects
  • This has been supported by logs and by simulations, for many years
spice spire
#

The only troll is that small pull chain pull

eternal nymph
# willow grotto if ur tank chain pull all time, u can't play around ur stealth

I agree that spiteful is annoying, and some tanks are giga dumb and chain the next thing even if there's only 1 spiteful left and that one is at 100k hp (that's just griefing).
But it doesn't make or break your damage.

If they chain properly that's also just better for time than killing off spitefuls just so that you can get stealth. If there's 8 full health shades then it's simply giga time waste to kill them off. Your small damage gain doesn't offset the time lost on killing those.

limber lion
#

And a lot of times you can still get stealths off even if tanks chainpull during Spiteful's

#

as long as you don't engage in the new combat yourself

#

You'll drop combat after the last spiteful is dead, even if the group is slamming on a new pack at that time

balmy condor
#

On the final mob of a pack you can often even stealth between a mob dying and the spiteful spawning

spice spire

The tools are limitless

The pad undeniable

@balmy condor How accurate are branch sims?

grim jay
#

oh brother

#

here we go

balmy condor
gaunt sigil
#

I guess I was mostly wondering if it over/under sims, does it pick up the orbs like you should or?

plain hazel
#

Hey all Im sorry if this is annoying but I've a couple of questions.. Not played rogue since MoP & have some questions about Assassination.

  1. Does Deathmark double the bleeds existing on the target already? Or does it double the bleeds you will put on the target after you cast it?

  2. In the opener I see conflicting information from many sources. You have the standard Garrote, Ambush, Rupture, Mutilate, SnD, Mutilate X2, Envenom set up. Then popping CDs Deathmark, Shiv, Shadow Dance, Kingsbane... Then I see some say to refresh Garrote & spam Envenoms until the last 3 sec vanish where you refresh bleeds again...
    Others hit them with a cheeky little Envenom after Kingsbane, then refresh Garrote & Hit them with a rupture before continuing the same and refreshing that rupture AGAIN during that vanish which seems weird to me..
    So what I'm askin is which one is more optimal & I do t understand why Rupture needs refreshing so aggressively in that situation esp since that last rupture probably isn't under the influence of Deathmark anymore if it works like that.
    Would really appreciate any info on this!

grim jay
lucid rain
#

honestly, you can do whatever you want in the opener as long as envenom and shiv have 100% uptime under kingsbane

grim jay
#

is what comes afterwards

plain hazel
#

Hmm well if that's the case then I really don't see the point of that interim Rupture. Way out of pandemic range & there's no gain. Thanks for clearing up Deathmark though that's actually ideal

grim jay
#

refreshing rupture in dance or vanish for the nightstalker snapshot is a thing you can do

#

but the difference between using an envenom instead and refreshing the rupture normally

#

and using the NS snapshot rupture is marginal

balmy condor
plain hazel
#

Yeah that second part of the opener is what I see & do. The only difference is after Kingsbane hitting Garrote then Rupture. Or hitting Garrote then Envenom. But they both refresh Rupture during that Vanish.

#

Does Nightstalker not count for the first 3 sec after stealth then? Is it only that first attack?

balmy condor
#

Subterfuge makes it 3 seconds

grim jay
#

once you are vanishing, rupture should be down quite a few seconds from the original duration

#

so they just refresh the NS rupture basically

plain hazel
#

Yeah I understand that! But I've seen people do a refresh just after the Kingsbane, Envenom, Garrote

#

So they basically cast it a 3rd time in the middle

storm forum
#

Like inside the dance window?

plain hazel
#

Yes!

#

It seems pointless to me I don't get it

grim jay
#

yeah thats weird

plain hazel
#

Okay good thankyou! I'll ignore this then xD

storm forum
#

I do it if rupture duration is low

#

But I wouldn't do it in a normal opener

#

Maybe an accelerated opener, with gar, rup, amb, snd, dm.

#

You wanna go dance/kb amb env gar amb rup

balmy condor
#

You basically ignore the fact that rupture can snapshot

limber lion
#

Rupture is very simple

storm forum
#

As your dance window

balmy condor
#

And just play it normally

limber lion
#

If in pandemic, reapply

spice spire
#

Ur so real for that

#

No thoughts just maintain.
The true rupture experience

plain hazel
#

Alright that's fair I was about to ask how you'd go about it for your second window cause you wouldn't have the stealth intro to snapshot a rupture & I assume you want it to double down from Deathmark buff again. But that's fair just reapply as and when

#

#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Mast = Crit = Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs like Witherbark's Branch and Wafting Devotion can often de-value the stat in question. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
