yea i mean without elusiveneess
you have to try really hard on fyrak to die
as a rogue
Guess who's got another dagger but still no Sandglass 
thanks friends ;3
yoooo
gz man
we are SLOWLY getting tindral p1 done 
tindral is such a banger boss, if only 1 person making a mistake wouldnt wipe the whole raid
so you could actually progress
I want someone at blizzard to attempt to run 10 feet in a random direction to touch a button in under 3 seconds
We love tindral seeds
Yeah, those seeds are annoying, just killed Heroic last night
I don't even wanna imagine mythic
do you know the twist from mythic?
you cant soak 2 seeds
heroic is ez i just sprint and soak 10
it worked once, 2nd time the healers gave up on me
my group got to do 3 seeds a person
ofc, we had 26 people, it was GREAT lmao
is it just insta kill?
Hmm, it seems that even while you've got cloak up you still end up with the dot.
at least I think thats what I saw.
on wowanalyzer website its always saying im not ever using my indiscriminate carnage, is it just bugged that way?
oh god.
thanks for the clarification lol
np!
I do wish it was updated, would love to use it for my own logs, but oh well
tis true
I'll have to do it later for sure, got to take doggies to boarding school for christmas lmao
they're... proooobably not gonna be overly happy, but oh well, mom n dad don't want them around for when our family visits, too much of a hassle.
its a reddit post, drawing in a drawing
On the third boss on BRH: which attack can we cc? Smashspite
Im using notters kingsbane tracker aura. How much kingsbane damage are people doing during opener? I can only muster about 1.3 million
Any good sin rogue streamers/youtubers you guys can recommend to watch some m+ gameplay?
@desert inlet
@balmy condor for guides and basics
@subtle tundra you’re washed on the YouTube game yeah?
That’s for YouTube
Streams, Ik whispyr does.
I think @keen spruce @blazing jewel occasionally
Unsure if notter is these days 
yay more time to play WoW OwO
And oxi betrayed us for sub 
very much washed
did you just ping like 5 people that didn't need to be pinged lol
Unfortunate
Yeah and?
Bro thinks I play sin 
Bro I’ve seen the logs doesn’t matter what you play hawwwkdh been carrying your ass
Also fwiw 3 of these people were questions.
I only know for a fact that endwyr does YouTube (and her YouTube is on her profile) and whispyr as well.
scana play no sin O-o ?
azh
i heard rouges true sub spec is called submissive
Nah that’s just rogues that play sub, they’re very submissive. Right @earnest remnant ?
Is there any decent play for sin in keys this week or is it just swap specs
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
Ok at least I got this in my depleted key 
I got the utgard drake the last time 
Hmm ok ig in keys it’s not that bad to use stealth and vanish on trash outside of cds
I think sub actually loses the least from no restealths but that requires playing sub in keys 
Yeah
BIG aoe
Mf a sub OTP bitching about playing sub

Im a feral player buddy
Its good if you actually wanna use your brainpower, which most people (including me most of the time) dont wanna do
Damn did my goat actually leave the server
Yea
Was about to narc on a fraudulent catboy
Damn
He saw me on an @ing spree and knew it was only time
Smart
They are I’ve seen the logs
I refuse to call this plink
I want to ping all of the rh yappers with that gif in a random voice channel chat
Mfs will be searching for their phantom ping only to find sleepy plink waiting for them in Four-Person-1
kinda fricked up

Just like your shower orange
wtf
I had to google it
and why would someone do it

oranges good
smells nice
plus u can peel by hand without getting all sticky since in shower

Mf gonna clown me so hard after this I already know
But oranges smell nice
Maybe it is a high key goat move

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

Is this a controversial take youre ready to get clowned for? 
When sin the only specc again ?
Yes
The only one who smells nice in here is
(the joke is that nobody smells good in here)
Idk man works at a bowling alley
Dux
so i got more time to play wow
yeah
the company i was employed at didnt theat me like a human. they were way to disrespective so i just fked them

imagine, your chef dont care about your opinion and take private things to workplace so u just look like the complete idiot
well I learned graphics programming and set up a shader patreon for vrchat
O_O
just take something you enjoy, get good at it, and sell whatever you make doing it
i do creative stuff, like substance painter etc. but im not good enought to live from it
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
can we switch to PM ? i dont think its a good topic here 😄
honestly I've said all I really can on the topic, there's better resources for learnign than me, we can drop it here
ok
i wanna study 3D design in animation. but it do cost some stuff. but yeha i will figure things out
good luck my fren

Wholesome chat 
log review 

I’m gonna hit filter
why hit filter when you could just hit me
thats a crazy pickup line
Outside of sport I don’t hit people big dog.
Well not historically I guess
Not to say I wouldn’t
I generally don’t like hurting people
Nah I’m definitely a protector.
Social worker for the underserved, the whole 9.
@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

Will lariat ever be relevant? I'm full sockets and it still sims kinda bad
not really
wait what is this? Is it some kind of setting?
Taking a look now
I can't handle ur frogs they're too good
i worked HR when employed at a call centre on a call centre worker contract. meant that they could at anypoint "drop"me from HR back to phone work, when they did that i quit immediately
It was an add on
it also meant whenever i took annual leave or sick days, i was paid at call worker rates
some dog policy
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
oh
I dont see that option anywhere
does that have an effect on off gcd spells?
Why is there an anime girl moaning?
i wont say
What does the Vulpera icon with the "uwu" do
darn
Please stop asking questions
I don’t want to know the answer
But I’ll read it 
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

snd is easy to make in wa O-o ? or is it a preset wa from Lisonna ?
Preset WA from LE is what I’m gathering 
quake, those cast timer settings are not base game
Sent in dms
It's just part of my pack, so this matches my visual style and such if using the rest of my pack
ah !
but yeah doesn't have anything fancy in it
thank you king
np
Theres an UwU emote?
it is an emote itsself
God I fucking hate outlaw rogues
KEKW

i dunno
exactly
@lime cryptI need answers
No big dog

The macro's text
/run PlaySoundFile("Interface\CustomSounds\UwUTouchMeThereSenpai.ogg", "Master")
LOL
Idk how to say this
i wanna have this
How much for the file
It's just a preference thing
Uh this case
It actually did matter
thats a lie
it makes sounds whenever i get Ace proc
HOWEVER
i wont discuss why it makes such a noise
Nej
how does lag tolerance help us
The UwU Macro does that?
no
So he’s been missing his final ticks the entire time
its just custom audio file
Because the kb window was that tight
ok another blocklist candidate
And he didn’t shiv before
That's not how lag tolerance works
What does the uwu macro do
Just means he didn't press it early enough
dont ask why
holy fuck
Gonna have to erase this from my memory
lag tolerance is just spell queuing, not sure how it would help
Just means the man literally stopped pressing buttons and presses kb .015s too late
Why are you using a vulpera Icon for that
He shived after which is what the apl does.
But tiniest lag pushed him out. He replicated it on dummies
i have to balance not playing vulpera somehow
It fixed it 
the only point where lag tolerance would matter, is on outlaw with it's .5s gcd
Also missing out on .015s of DM does not change anything (actually nvm ld gg)
Lowers the LP gain on final tick of KB
because its macro from BfA and back then, i used to play outlaw vulpera

so cute cat OwO
But yeh what fixes it is pressing the button during the GCD and setting up spellqueue properly
But fair enough
stop asking questions now i feel embarassed the more you ask
Yeah this is like a edge wall 0.0000001% weird ass case
99% of the time it won’t matter
With a lotta 9s
You wanna go for drinks?
i mean my spells that are even macrod together (dance/kb) with no gcd lock are sometimes out 50-100 ms
some horse shit
Just wanna put that out there : had 1st Volcoross down yesterday, kill timer was 4:10
Feelsbadman
Krill issue truly
4:10 < never
Yeah typical networking stuff with wow
Ofc true but man the parse was looking awful
Maybe for you but I’m different
I don't have nitro 😦

LE is a good lass and I appreciate all of the work she does with weak auras 
It helps a lot of the homies out
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?
I think they are talking about spellqueuewindow setting or there is a setting actually called lag tolerance
by the way just a general question, how do I make that whenever i put two weakauras over eachother, i make one that I want cover over the one that I dont want
if that makes sense
No they are not
There is
That's what frame strata is for
Low vs high etc
thats something in weakaura?
Yeah
There is a setting on display called frame strata
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
@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

Go for it
(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
Can verify. LE very helpful and very open to DMs 🫡
so whats the dps loss from having to open with vanish cuz tank wait to clear shades
dynamic group is automatically sorting things under eachother
is there a way to make it sort to the side?
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
thank you king
You do your normal opener but making sure you rupture in dance
And use garrote rather than ambush
You always garrote once during dance
No extra garrotes needed

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
In multi target I garrote more since IC can apply it to more targets
Like 5t you want to garrote more
Below 3t it's the same prob
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
We went through this already
But the extra empowered garrote uptime on secondary targets might be worth a tradeoff of less dam from ambush anyway
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
ye
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
You’re the one in a krillion they speak of
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
🫡
so I feel like I paid it forward
in kb/dance do we always use ambush? or throw in some mutis
thanks to your immense skills and vast knowledge of weakauras, i made this frankenstein, BEHOLD
Ambush slight gain iirc
Alexa play “I hate everything about you” by three days grace

He's literally talking about the 2nd boss of everbloom. Pls soviet for once read what the convo is about
Yeah I think I misunderstood.
What is the point of lag tolerance?
Only you can do this to yourself, don't implicate me in your crimes.
it feels 'responsive' and I can be OKAY if you're not a global locked spec
I am what you helped me become
I can understand messing around with spellqueue to change how often or how early you can press stuff
But I don't see a world where delaying all gcds by any amount is worth it
I was using it for Sub because it was energy starved so often, and you could fit 8 globals into a dance even with a small gap
What function does lag tolerance have there?
Still energy starved
it just shortens the spell queue window
Still 8 gcds
so you can change your next global dynamically
That's not true according to what you said
it is, it's the same as spell queue window
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
what build is everyone running this week?
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
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
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
it is, all this does is change the spell queue window
Exactly
So
What I said earlier stands
And yoy changing that number CHANGES NOTHING
yes it does
Spell queue is like pandemic
it was set to 150ms
What number did you set it to?
I was gapping globals
You do not understand spell queue
jfc yes I do
Read what I just said
it was too short a window
yes to 400
That's odd
I play at 100
And I have never missed a gcd in my life
How much is your ping exactly
Do you shiv before dm or after dm Cev?
around 40
I didn’t mean to respond
yeah
I do now
that's just not how anything works
I'm guessing you literally press each button literally once
and never spam
400 is literally the default since 7.2
After makes window tight
Spellqueuewindow is a setting that depends upon how fast u personally press keys
dont spell queue
It sure does
i mean mby for assa it doesnt really matter
But "lag tolerance" does not make you lose gcds
as its not super reactive
that's not how anything works
I measured my key presses and it's around 5 per second so I use a spell queue window of 200 + my ping
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
It also depends how close to the gcd you press keys
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
If you do 1 press per second but it's rhythmically 50ms before the gcd ur fine
This is a common correlation I’ve been seeing In a lot of log review
If that was the case, it would be the case for every single gcd
what is pandemic rupture? i dont see anythign in tree
If it’s not on the singular correct push it’s real tight
no it would be true for button presses that didn't register within the spell queue window, it would happen on some globals and not others
30% of duration ie. 24s makes it 7.2s
what
buttons that didn't register?
that's not a thing
You press a button, something happens
sorry im new to rogue/ass i dont understand
if you set your spell queue to 0, and press a button during a global, what happens after the global
nothing
Explain this
exactly
so if it's set to 150, plus 40, if I don't press 190ms before the global ends... a gap!
Which means that you weren't pressing your buttons enough
Which is the exact thing here
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
no I'm not
That's exactly what I was saying previously
this has been my very fixed narrative since I realised I had it set too low
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
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
Yes
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
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
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
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
But you are not spamming buttons if that's the case though
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
Yes
you showed sometimes there are not and sometimes there are
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
fair
but yeah as long as it works for you, it's all good
spare a thought for the Warrior in my guild who had it set to 40ms though
that really would make a difference
400 is personally too big of a window for me, but then again I know someone who plays with like 600
Yeah that's definitely a wrist killer
Mine still might be on 40
I might experiment with 300, Outlaw is literally unplayable

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
since it has a 400ms GCD under AR
and now I never get any pain and I never miss gcds
I should increase
Boomer hands will do you in every time
Yes lol
This dispatch is from the crackshot talent
My ping like doubled since I moved too
oh wait

Yes I agree
Ceveriontwo would have never. You changed man
I play with 250 generally
It's enough for sub outlaw proc reactions for me
With higher settings I sometimes flub a proc last minute
loss prevention?
League points
Sorry lethal dose
Literal ape
Yeh all good, just saw you say it a few times so I figured I was missing something
but good point yeh
Nope. I’m just an idiot
That forgets the names of talents 🙂
Yeah that shit was a wild catch
I’ll dm you rq convo
I usually just look at the kb damage and if I see it go up with every tick, then I'm chill
time to take an in-depth look
Its really interesting to see the difference in statting for Ashes vs Branch
How do you change the window time?
Whats the norm with spell que?
Play with it off or just lower the timing?
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)
Play with spellqueuewindow 1200
You need to predict abilities 1 gcd before they happen
5head gameplay
Assuming this is client based?
It's preference
I played with 100 spell queue back in the day because I was a spammer
I mean the values... if i set it on my laptop i'll have to set it on my pc too?
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
gonna try turning it off
then make my way back to 400
Never messed around with this
Never turn it off fully
100 is like the minimum I would ever recommend for anyone
0.1s leeway
Some cvars are character specific
You simply cannot press gcd's the same fraction of a second that the gcd is ready
But I think they save account wide
and you introduce ms and lag to it and that introduces gaps
Holy shit
I think there's some ms + 50 rule or something that people follow
or was it ms + 150
can't remember
There’s probably different save rules
100 already feels way better for OL lol
Is there any Hekili addon rotation string that I can use to help me practise Assassination?
Hekilli really bad for rogue
I know it's obviously not perfect but just to get an idea of what buttons I need to press and how I should order them.
Yeah I know, but this is more for like helping arrange my action buttons etc. and dummy practise obviously.
Its going to have you doing some silly shit
That's not the point.
It's tuned to PvE unfortunately.
ima be real man, just keep rupture + garotte up, slice and dice up
then its mut > envenom
thats the general gist of the spec
cd usage has some intricacy
Do you think god is silent for fear of what they have created
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
Oh
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
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
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
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
I’m sorry you had to do that
I don’t wish it upon my worst enemy
like not a single message in hunter disc
and they criticise this guy who's been doing this shit for years, multiple r1 allstars for hunter specs
with results based analysis of "1 of these 4 random people did this"
I initially asked "why are you telling me this instead of talking to someone who plays mm"
!dagger
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. 🙂
to get back to it yes it was +150
tho I usually recommend just starting at 200 and testing from there
I'm at 175 for ages
because I'm a spammy guy having a history of high apm games
and thats like the highest that still feels good
Can someone take a quick glance and tell me why I couldnt hit 99 here?
dagger does not exist

top prio is spread gar while in improved garotte > spread rupture while IC is up til you've atleast 4-5 out if not on the whole pack. outside of that it depends on stuff, one thing is get CT out early if the pull has A LOT of low hp mobs instead of rupturing them (dragon pulls in galakrond's fall for example)
outside of that make sure your target has spatter on them and pump envenoms with 4pc
ty
there's a science in rushing your opener to get cds out faster
You wasted too much CP, and you missed a tea. Didn’t pad enough?
This is a weird one ngl
Why is weird? Can you go into more detail? I missed a Tea during KB or?
No I mean
It’s 2:40 fight yeah?
We start with 3 charges
You gain one a minute
But used 4 charges total
Gnarlroot parsing on heroic just a weird concept
Because it’s not a straight st and kinda relies on a team effort to funnel you dam to some level
But also turbo fuck the boss
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
you didn't FoK once
I've been meaning to ask about that
Do you even care about FoK of you have spatter?
Exactly, it wasnt even in my mind at the time.
I only FoK on Tindral roots
FoK is super energy efficient compared to mut on aoe for cp generation. in 3+ you mut for spatter and otherwise FoK
and gnarlroot isnt' a fight where we have infinite energy (no time to dot secondary targets)
yea fok normally gets me to 6 cp in 1 cast
^^Being able to crank out more envenoms if 3+ targets (assuming you mutilated for splatter already)
What's spatter duration?
10s iirc
Ok nvm that makes sense
that sounds kinda weird
you keep spatter up anyways
and fok on 3+ while its up
yes, thats what I said
yeah kinda saw it after reading it multiple times
it came across differently the first few times
sorry
my wording is cooked xd

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
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
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
I’m struggling in some keys this week, like tott 24 my overall was pretty bad and even if my boss dmg is good people are still bashing
depends entirely if aoe is judged during cds or outside
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
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. ..
yes, exactly my experience
Lye
thats kinda weird considering sin got nerfed by 3% while dh had like 5% iirc
multiple classes, but rogue is main and saw the most change*
Let's say I was doing 230k overall before the nerfs, if I take off 3% its 6,900 dps so I'd be doing 223.1k overall???? Do you guys honest notice?
BM still blasting with the 2 button rotation
If I was doing 180k overall before the nerfs now I take off 5,400 dps
3*
Ah yeah forgot about feign death
Like sin in keys is good only if Aug and PI
I'd be doing 174.5
I even felt like my burst got bigger
but then I woke up
I mean it shouldnt be too noticeable overall in keys
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%.
considering you got swings anyways
whats the smartest way to use CDs on smolderon?
send everything on cd or keep deathmark for burst phase?
Okay but it was literally 3%, if you're playing worse that doesnt mean the nerf was bigger
A Website to compare top parses in World of Warcaft.
Your mileage may vary
thx man
Which is why I've tried to come to my conclusion only until after multiple (20) runs. Maybe too early to come to a conclusion.
Does anyone have time for a quick chat by chance?
Spiteful affix doesn't help for overall dps on assa
It’s free damage
The heck
Much pad
if ur tank chain pull all time, u can't play around ur stealth
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
We have like 2 ways to restealth.
The only troll is that small pull chain pull
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.
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
On the final mob of a pack you can often even stealth between a mob dying and the spiteful spawning
ye but only when no other spiteful is alive
pretty annoying
i generally enjoy sin more in m+ than sub but this week really makes me want to play sub more even tho its "playable"
its just a very annoying affix
Not to be able to restealth is very annoying
Wish I could restealth all the posts about restealths
litearlly people saying "it doesnt really matter"
and somone comming in 2 sec later
wtf no stealth so bad
repeat
endless circle
no restealth is really annoying
is annoying really stealth no
welp
I had that one guy
that made me really proud
he said "not being able to restealth feels bad, but its whatever"
@balmy condor How accurate are branch sims?
Depends what accuracy means
I guess I was mostly wondering if it over/under sims, does it pick up the orbs like you should or?
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.
-
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?
-
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!
its using 1-1-7
- it doubles the bleeds currently on the target dynamically. both existing and the ones you apply
honestly, you can do whatever you want in the opener as long as envenom and shiv have 100% uptime under kingsbane
is the opener
is what comes afterwards
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
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
It does pick up orbs as intended yes
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?
Subterfuge makes it 3 seconds
once you are vanishing, rupture should be down quite a few seconds from the original duration
so they just refresh the NS rupture basically
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
Like inside the dance window?
yeah thats weird
Okay good thankyou! I'll ignore this then xD
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
You basically ignore the fact that rupture can snapshot
Rupture is very simple
As your dance window
And just play it normally
If in pandemic, reapply
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
Cheers you've all been rly helpful!
hey guys, what % haste are u running keys? currently 36-21-69-7
is my question a bad question
Stats don't matter that much, just do what the sims tell you.
If it's m+, dslice is fine
what io are u
Alright I'm out
He said good rogues 
io check ⁉️
your discord should have your io and parses linked at all times otherwise I cannot trust you 
Lol, guys I asked a friendly question and look at these responses. You guys just trolls? have a great day 😄
what is ur epeen size
Do you know where you are? This discord has incredibly helpful information, but some of the nastiest, sweat-lord people I've ever seen.
only >99 cm allowed to answer my question
was just a silly reply to a silly question no ?
I mean you got the answer
simming ur character isnt the end all for rogue dps
yes it is
lol whatever
i follow raidbots religiously
(for keys)
raid is a different matter because of how bosses can differ from sim structure
i wish
?XD
friendlier by the minute
no idea if u ask for io ppl get big mad haha
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Mast = Crit = Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs like Witherbark's Branch and Wafting Devotion can often de-value the stat in question. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
maybe ur robotically great
there you go
@prisma monolith io check
asking about sims nah
THANK YOU
raidbots is our teacher
no it doesnt lol, asking about imaginary breakpoints then refuting sims gets people upset
if you provided a sim and asked " why is it favoring X stat over X" you would get a proper explanation
will not be reading further llol
my stats u happy?
Don’t down urself bozo
This aint it
No im not happy
92 fps time to crank that up son, how will you get title with that fps?
Whats ur io
whats the addon for the character menu for all the extra info?
looks like dejacharacterstats
Yeah chungess-sargeras what’s your io bozo
what io are you?
what io are you?
0 I havent geared my rogue this expac lmao
Oh shit he found me
What io do you need to be to be allowed to post in here?
At least 3
Ask shantiana
IO is a cringe minigame !!!!
this channel has too many green name+
That’s true, I’ll leave you to it solo
🫡
M+ers are fine. Its the new M+ers that have gotten a high io for the first time in the first 2 months of a season that get massive egos
That everyone despises
Friendly bfa lanille would have engaged there and gotten called slur after only being 1700 io

they are still better than the raiders whose every other word is parse
I used to be an early clout andy. Now im a last 2 weeks title pushing andy.
Aren’t you still in prog?
Idk bout that. Ive seen many M+ers shit the bed in raid lmfao
Me?
Yeah
where are the stats?
Pushing during prog sounds awful ngl
not skill wise, annoyance levels
Was the whole point. I ain’t an ego checker 
Yeah we have fyrakk at like 13%. Hopefully dies tonight so christmas is saved.
(Its not dying tonight and im hotel raiding next week)
