Question do we always run Wafting Devotion or just Sim it in case Sophic Devotion is better?

KK thank you

south olive
#

do you bother upkeeping crimson tempest on m+ bosses?

tall basalt
#

not on st

#

but if there's a bunch of adds maybe

south olive
#

thank you! sorry for such a noob qn HAHA

#

was feeling energy starved on some fights (prob rotational issue) but if i dont need that thats some back

tall basalt
#

ct doesnt give back energy i dont think

#

only rupture and garr

south olive
#

ya ! was just applying it to have all dots rolling sdifohsd silly mistake

taking my 40 energy back and running

#

Should you always try to keep 2 shivs for kingsbane?

#

Or just one is enough?

runic hinge

so 2 charges?

Yeah

glacial lantern
#

Allright, thanks

#

Why do we feel so weak now in M+ ?
I’ve been running 25s and dmg isnt looking great, at least on adds, compared to DH, Hunters, Outlaw etc…
Is it because I am not running Tempest or what?

#

If I run Tempest I’ll lose lots of boss dmg.

People complaining about low overall dam using a single target build

limpid moth
#

im an out law running 25s and i never get to see what other sins dmg is like in this level because im the rogue in the key xD

clever sapphire
#

Also comparing yourself with a dh and hunter in geoup on a tyra week

#

Trash dies before your non aoe build could ramp up

dark token
#

This is why u should run ct

#

Garr garr CT ur gonna keep up on every pack

dark token
#

This is why I don't advocate for cleave build being run by most people

#

Almost everyone should be using hybrid

waxen oyster
#

why do people act like they “need” more st damage

#

when half the time bosses are a mechanics check

#

not numbers

dark token
#

That's the other thing

#

U should do the omega boss dam build when in keys that bosses scale multiplicatively off ur st dam

#

E g. Rise/fall have Tyr and iridikron

#

If you have low dam you get more shield phases

#

Making the boss even longer

#

But on brh or ataldazar? Doesn't really matter

waxen oyster
#

well i guess it goes back to a point someone mentioned once

dark token
#

Go for max overall dam in those keys

waxen oyster
#

that alot of pug m+ players

#

only succeed by bruteforcing

and not understanding dungeon mechanics

hey sorry the tl;dr on talents is CT/sudden demise for fort and arterial precision on tyrannical right? is my understanding of things

waxen oyster

dark token
#

If you are asking this question

#

Run hybrid build every key

#

95% of players should do this

#

Then on tough tyrannical keys like 27+ consider running CT cleave build or regular cleave build, especially where bosses scale with st damage like rise or fall

#

Or if you run with a premade 5 and your role is more st

obtuse quiver
#

the hybrid build being arterial precision?

royal tree
#

do yall run sudden demise talent build or arterial for DHT

you take any of the first 3 builds in the picture above

#

the first 2 feels roughly identical in all cases

royal lantern
#

:3

keen spruce
#

the 3rd one is more st

#

but it doesn't matter

#

just pick one

#

and use it

#

if you don't like it pick a different one, you probably won't like it either

#

cuz they're all basically the same

#

I pug a lot, so I don't run cleave build cuz it makes your overall look bad and around 3300 people start to remember who you are

#

but it's not high enough for people to understand how prio damage works

what do you guys do for gold? i'm at my wit's end for gear, i'm ready to just buy crafted shit

#

over 30 key clears and i haven't even gotten a piece of gear, let alone one that i can actually use

pure moth
#

Can buy wow tokens for gold. But wqs give a fair amount of gold if you keep doing them.

#

Weeklies give a chunk

no consistent method?

Tis the season

storm monolith

man i don't even care about the gear being worse at this point, i just want SOMETHING

spice spire
#

Guess you were naughty this year

storm monolith
#

40 keys and i haven't seen ANYTHING

limber lion
#

Sus

#

It was 30 an hour ago

#

Now it's 40

storm monolith
#

that's what i said

#

50

limber lion
#

Man's probably done 4 keys

storm monolith
#

for real though let me check

#

i've been doing keys all day, starting at like 8 this morning

limber lion
#

Yeh around 7 keys then

#

Not 40

spice spire
#

Maybe if they’re 10s

storm monolith
#

lmao no it's been way more than 7

spice spire
#

I ain’t judging

storm monolith
spice spire
#

Yeah you can kinda pound those out

#

I believe at least 15

storm monolith
#

mostly because yesterday when i tried to get into anything higher i was shot down each and every time (except the 14 we didn't time that wasn't my fault)

limber lion
#

That's the level he plays at Quake

spice spire
#

If you’re North American

#

Oh

#

Again

limber lion
#

It's not because he chooses to

#

Or well, I guess he does

spice spire
#

You can still pound them out

limber lion
#

But not timing 14's

#

Idk

storm monolith
#

i have to go 12s and 10s cause i'm not accepted into anything else

#

tried for 3 straight hours yesterday to get into 14s and i didn't get in once

#

finally gave up and just started doing 12s

slate crown
#

Can’t you push your own key?

storm monolith
#

i

#

i'll be back

spice spire
#

Be safe friend

#

Good luck

slate crown
#

Honestly, don’t grind yourself to dust grinding keys if it’s grueling

storm monolith
#

i'm chill doing it, but not seeing ANYTHING in my personal chest is fucking ridiculous

slate crown
#

Well

#

That is a kind of mental grind

storm monolith
#

in all actuality, i think i've done upwards of 20 or so keys today

slate crown
#

So stay careful, don’t destroy yourself

limber lion
#

What did you check

#

20 keys is a lot

#

Like

#

Giga a lot

#

No one does 20 keys a day

storm monolith
#

yeah i've been doing about 2 every hour

#

12s and 10s accept me fast

limber lion
#

You deplete 14's but do 2 12's an hour?

#

Hm alright

storm monolith
#

THE 14 WASN'T MY FUALT

#

there were 32 deaths in that Throne of Tides run and i only died twice

proven jasper

bruh that's insane

storm monolith
#

but yeah it's been a long day

#

gonna get longer too cause i'm not stopping till i get at least ONE gear upgrade

slate crown
#

It might be better to take a break. Promise you

limber lion
#

I still don't buy it

#

But gl

proven jasper
#

It’s definitely not worth it lmao

storm monolith
#

slightly related note: i hate galakrond's fall

#

or rise or whatever

#

the one with that chromie knockoff

proven jasper
#

Fall is easy af

storm monolith
#

the hat mechanic is so visibly obfuscated

limber lion
#

What's your rogue called

slate crown
#

That’s rise

proven jasper
#

theres a weakaura that makes chromie 10x easier

slate crown
#

And yeah, for me plater kind of obscures the hat

storm monolith
#

please

#

i love you long time

But I can usually still find it in time and step

What ilvl are you?

storm monolith
#

hang on

#

459

limber lion
#

Yup

slate crown
#

Yeah this late in season that’s pretty low to join heroic pugs

proven jasper
#

Normal gear sounds like an upgrade for you at 459

storm monolith
#

i'd buy crafted gear if i had any money

#

it'd at least make me feel somewhat better

proven jasper
#

its not alot

limber lion
#

Easiest way to get gear

storm monolith
#

a lot to you is different than a lot to me

limber lion
#

Do 17's

#

Ez

proven jasper
#

its like maybe a few thousand for two pieces

#

and thats probably overestimating

storm monolith
#

for 463's?

proven jasper
#

You can get the mats for like a couple hundred

#

easily

slate crown
#

Ngl at this point crafters are not necessarily clambering for profits imo

storm monolith
#

i've got 2k to my name

proven jasper
#

yeah man

slate crown
#

You can almost certainly haggle down

proven jasper
#

thats enough lol

limber lion
#

Aspect crest is like 10k tbf

proven jasper
#

Man dont even need the crest

limber lion
#

If you only get the normal gear then sure

proven jasper
#

It would still be an upgrade

limber lion
#

Yeh

frozen iris
#

!dagger

storm monolith
#

all my stuff is at least 450, but there's a bit of variation amongst the pieces beyond that

proven jasper
#

I think a crafted piece with no crest is like 463?

storm monolith
#

mainhand is 476 and offhand is 463, shoulders and hands are 463

proven jasper
#

At max rank

storm monolith
#

waist is 476

proven jasper
#

Get some crafted gear brother

#

do you have ur embellishments?

storm monolith
#

i wonder how much a lariat goes for

proven jasper
#

dont even bother

#

I promise

storm monolith
#

i've got a leg embellishment

proven jasper
#

The recipe is like 4 million on zul’jin last i checked

storm monolith
#

and i got the head enchant from raid

balmy condor
#

First game sucked

#

Should’ve been like a 750 series

#

Would’ve been lit

devout karma
#

is outlaw better in m+ after the latest nerf

#

😄

limber lion
#

Always has been

storm monolith
#

i need to go look up what embellishments i should even be using

#

oh i need those boots for nature damage

limber lion
#

For damage

storm monolith
#

OOOOOOOOO

#

GOT INTO ATAL 15

#

please god i've been good

#

i swear

#

wait no i don't swear that's bad

limber lion
#

Dungeon number 63

#

Gl

storm monolith
#

yeah number 107. getting tired man

proven jasper
storm monolith
#

582 runs really tires a guy out

limber lion
proven jasper
#

yeah 849 runs is alot

#

LMAO

storm monolith
#

speaking of, how does the rating even work? cause i have a better score on a key that's lower than my highest key

#

is it a time thing?

limber lion
#

If you deplete

#

No score

#

If you time

#

Yes score

#

Bigger key

storm monolith
#

ok so better time means better score

limber lion
#

Bigger score

#

Bigger timed key

storm monolith
#

and bigger key means bigger score

limber lion
#

Bigger yes score

storm monolith
#

thank you for your words of wisdom cev

storm monolith
#

FINALLY

#

that 15 was actually fun

#

it felt challenging, even when everyone was doing their mechs right

#

AND i got a pants upgrade

#

so question

#

do 16's begin the level where hero gear starts dropping? better yet, does anyone have the command to bring up the ilvl table?

slate crown
#

!up

storm monolith
#

thank you friend

slate crown
#

Grats on the key and pants

storm monolith
#

oh it's on 17

#

tskkkkkkkkkkk idk if i'm ready for 17 man

slate crown
#

Yup

storm monolith
#

15 was tough enough as it was, and i don't think i'll have the damage numbers to keep up in there with my current gear

#

what's a max quality craft with enchanted wyrm crest?

drifting cloud
#

476

storm monolith
#

for WYRM?

slate crown
#

It’s on the graphic, and yes

storm monolith
#

surely that's baseline

#

cause i crafted 476 with whelpling enchanted crest

#

nvm that's a lie

#

wow how did i never notice i used the wyrm crest

#

ok so aspect crests start dropping at 16, hero gear starts being looted at 17, and myth gear comes from vault at 18+

slate crown
#

Correct.

storm monolith
#

oh i see. 489 is only attainable from last two bosses of mythic raid

#

seems fair

slate crown
#

I mean you can upgrade any Myth track piece to 489

storm monolith
#

oh yeah that's my bad, was looking at loot pickup

#

oh good lord enchanted crests are expensive

#

i'm gonna throw up

#

why are dracothysts 5k

storm monolith
#

nvm i now know why

#

that shit is so tedious why does that exist

keen spruce
#

Actually 5k is on the cheaper side

storm monolith
#

AH right now is selling them for like 4800

keen spruce
#

I think the cheapest I ever saw them with 3k

storm monolith
#

4300, my bad

keen spruce
#

And that was late last season

storm monolith
#

welp, back to figuring out how to make money

keen spruce
#

Crime

#

Oh u mean in game

#

Uhh boosts

storm monolith
#

how can i boost people if i don't have the gear to do so

keen spruce
#

Idk fair point

slate crown
#

I don’t have advice at the moment, I’ve been Mia from the crafting game since mid 10.1 and just craft for guild, and my initial surge was riding the diamond printing bubble till it popped at the start of the xpac.

spice spire
#

(He’s a boosted animal)

slate crown
#

Honestly gathering works

#

Without initial KP it can be rough but I really enjoy the gathering loop because now it involves dragonriding

#

Which is actually really fun to have the gathering goal attached to it.

spice spire
#

fun

keen spruce
slate crown
#

Kind of like how in Outer Wilds the ship piloting mechanics are nice and fun but them be tied to the goals of traversing the world and exploring the story makes it perfect

misty holly
#

There are multiple reasons why, but probably the consistently most frustrating is because you now fly too fast to easily check what nodes you are zooming past before they disappear

#

and there is no way to stop or slow down without losing your ability to go fast at all

#

as that is a limited resource

slate crown
#

That is an improvement they could make

#

To the minimap Ui

#

But it didn’t really bother me that much, my gathering alt has a full UI for gathering which centers my minimap and makes it not that hard to mouse over

misty holly
#

if each herb has a different icon so I could just SEE which ones were popping on the map rather than having to mouse over each icon it would be so much better

slate crown
#

Yeah that’s a criticism of the gathering minimap icons but I would hardly use that as a reason to hate dragonriding

#

Like the solution there has nothing to do with dragonriding, just make the minimap show detailed icons, that’s it

fallen forge
slate crown
#

Also my alt is both herb and mining, and in the caverns while trying to keep up the 4-5 various buffs and CDR on overloads (which, btw, is also fun imo) often you just gather everything. Not always, I definitely skip some and have to mouse over to see, but it’s not something I do on every single node

#

I haven’t done gathering in the dream yet so I don’t know what the new gimmick is

fallen forge
slate crown
#

Oh yeah WQ gold, won’t get you good gear but like

#

If you only have 2k to your name

storm monolith
#

yeah i've been doing WQ stuff

slate crown
#

It’s significant

storm monolith
#

spent about 30 minutes just doing races and some quests and i've got 5k

fallen forge
#

like if ur on not-full-repair tier broke

storm monolith
#

i had 1k to my name

fallen forge
#

ye especially if you have multiple characters the gold adds up

slate crown
#

Idn also good to just vary your gameplay to not burn yourself out

storm monolith
#

wait DUH i've got like 8 alts from shadowlands that i haven't gotten to 70

#

i can just do that, do world quests with them, then funnel

slate crown
#

Questing gold from leveling is good too

ye i get that pvp itch every once in a while and then i realize im even more dogshit at pvp than i am at pve

why do i have to do this stupid authenticator thing

LMAO why do i have to download a dumb app

storm monolith
#

i'm getting pissed off this is DUMB

slate crown
#

and have not opened it

storm monolith
#

i do not want this shit on my phone

slate crown
#

And I launch the game through the launcher

#

and never ever ever think about it

#

Just do what it says and it'll be done soon

storm monolith
#

bro what fucking authenticator code

#

my blood is boiling

#

why did they implement this dogshit

slate crown
#

It's literally 2fa

misty holly
#

you install the app, then battle.net will ask for the code to verifty it's you

slate crown
#

That every company

#

in the entire world

#

does

misty holly
#

it only asks if you change computers

storm monolith
#

why is it asking me EVERY TIME I LOG IN

misty holly
#

its to stop someone from guessing your password and logging in

#

because they will need the code from your phone also

slate crown
#

Do you play the game from your launcher?

storm monolith
slate crown
#

Like are you typing your credentials at the login screen every time you log in?

#

ok

storm monolith
#

used to be i just put in email and password

slate crown
#

then I don't know why it's asking you

storm monolith
#

but now i have to do stupid authenticator code each time

misty holly
storm monolith
#

i'm gonna have to go mess with settings now there's GOT to be a way to stop this

slate crown
#

And it has done that for over 5 years for me

#

or whatever

#

Are you signed into bnet in the bnet launcher?

storm monolith
#

i see what the issue was now

#

it had me listed as offline

#

yep that worked

#

that was so dum

storm monolith
#

ok so that's EZ money

slate crown
#

Ok for once I'm asking a technical question here first if anyone knows, because i don't know about plater much

#

When playing DPS, I want an extra option that is a separate color for when the mob is attacking my pet

#

as opposed to someone else

#

How do I do

#

I assume it needs a separate script because the built in options here don't specifically have that

shy pecan
#

Yeah, sounds right

storm monolith
#

getting profession knowledge is such a pain dude

Oh herbs suck

Damn treants kinda lame

professions are pain x.x

storm monolith
#

ok maybe i don't pug heroics anymore

holy goddamn do people not know how to do mechs

left tulip
#

if you are refreshing rup and garrote, would you envenom with less than 4 combo points to keep chain going?

#

like you couldnt get another mutilate off to hit 4 or more CB

#

without envenmom running out of uptime

keen spruce
#

it's because we don't want to waste CP generated from seal fate

#

or we want to minimize it

#

it's pretty marginal though compared to finishing on 5+ cp

left tulip
#

okay but i mean if i have .5 seconds left to continue envenom chain but also only had 3 CP, would you envenom to keep chain going or start over with more CP

with witherbark branch bound to deathmark do i want to grab all 3 orbs and then garrote/rupture?

lime parrot
#

My logs are shit

distant plinth
#

You arent getting any good logs with that ilvl anyways

lime parrot

I know I know

But I got a rogue yesterday in the raid

#

His burst was like 50k more

#

And his ilvl was eqaul with mine

Farm daggers+trinkets

#

besides weapons/trinkets yeah you're gonna wanna make sure your thistle tea/vanish times are right on kingsbane

lime parrot
#

Im so sad 😦

south olive
#

for the biggest differences

#

bc even if its like 6.5 3.5 you'll lose alot

lime parrot
#

Vanish 4 sec before kingsbane finish?

south olive
#

3

lime parrot
#

And how I use distel

#

1 for bane

#

And the other 2 stacks?

south olive
#

when ur low energy

#

as long as you keep one for bane mastery buff

#

the others are just for energy

lime parrot
#

And when bane is up

#

I use it only in shadowdance?

south olive
#

shiv -> deathmark -> shadowdance/kingsbane -> build and spend envenom to 6s left -> shiv/thistle -> mutilate/envenom -> 3s left vanish/reapply garrote/rupture

#

i think

#

then u get mastery buff & nightstalker 10% dam on ur kingsbane last tick

#

u cant say that you do the opener from guide if your opener looks like this

I'm asking because I've seen multiple people over multiple days use sass when I'm pretty sure from context they were referring to assassination

#

what should be my overall dps ina 20 key as a 476?

#

i only get around 140-150 this week

#

and im pretty sure its crap

limber lion
#

depends on dungeon, key level, route, build and so on

#

but 150k is definitely a bit on the low side for any combination of dungeons

pallid kite
#

i used to play poison bomb on S2 and now im with this

limber lion
#

that's fine

obsidian ridge
#

Sounds suboptimal. You are doing low keys as sin on tyrannical though. Difficult to perform well there. I would go for a st centered build and kill bosses at least. Basically raid st build with spatter and ic, do st on the biggest guy in a pack, don't worry about spreading dots outside of ic

#

That's what I did at least

pallid kite
#

idk but i think my rotation is a big factor in that dmg even in raids

#

in raids i get around 130-160k dps

limber lion
#

personally I'm not the biggest fan of the cleave build in tyrannical keys because packs just feel pretty bad when there's never any big boys to send your cds on

#

It def helps in ST, but I don't really optimize for the best possible damage and fastest key for 20's

#

I just play whatever is fun

obsidian ridge
limber lion
#

You can time any +20 dungeon with 476 ilvl with basically any build

#

I prefer having fun when grinding out gear and 20's instead of tryharding keys which you will time anyways

#

Just try different builds out and play whatever is fun to you

#

But yeah, rotation is pretty critical with any build

pallid kite
#

idk how to time my branch with deathmark and bane

limber lion
#

on bosses you use it with deathmark

#

in aoe you can kinda send it on cd

#

even if you don't deathmark

#

pick up 2 orbs, wait 6s for the 3rd one

pallid kite
#

i still do garrote ambush rupture mutilate slice shiv dm shadowdance bane

#

that's my opener for bosses

limber lion
#

Yeah that's wrong to begin with

#

Would def recommend checking out a guide or going through Whispyr's videos like aDDi suggested.

pallid kite
#

do you know a video which is the main subject aoe/st for m+?

sullen quest
#

Best advise I can give you is just rack up time played

#

Lot of muscle memory to unlearn and learn

#

Just spam some keys while keeping in mind the essentials

static glacier
pallid kite
#

in legion was a lot better

pallid kite
#

i really don't know what build should i try for 18-20

#

to sustain some dmg on aoe pulls and bosses

#

i've never tried a build without crimson yet

sullen quest
#

I'm doing 200-250k overal in 18s with 469

#

feel like I'm finally doing it right after struggling with prio on big pulls all day yday

pallid kite
#

i'll do 200k on bloom maybe =))) with the last boss dmg buff

dark token
#

People being baited by this cleave build when they are doing weekly 20s...

pallid kite
#

suggest me a build i could go then

dark token
#

Everyone should run hybrid build until they know better

#

And are doing coordinated 5 mans in like 27+ keys pushing for title

#

Then u can check out cleave build and see if it helps ur group

still stirrup
#

I don't think sin is going to shine unless you are in high keys or its fort/bolstering, everything just dies too fast

dark token
#

Aka why you should take a build with CT

#

In low enough keys the AP/sudden demise build will also be better

sullen quest
#

its not baited if wowhead literally recommends it

#

but good to know

dark token
#

Sudden demise is required for low keys

#

Nah ur baited

#

That build is a specific optimization for high end keys for their 5man premade

#

It doesn't work till every pack can live ur deathmark

#

If you read the section

#

It says that

#

But no one reads

sullen quest
#

OH wait I'm using arterial shock

fallen forge
#

why read when u can complain about low damage here

sullen quest
#

not cleave

dark token
#

Arterial shock is good

#

Hybrid is good

sullen quest
#

because i read

dark token
#

No one should use cleave unless ur pushing for title

pallid kite
#

mine is arterial

limber lion
#

if you hate ct or whatever, go ahead and play cleave

dark token
#

Yeah but cleave is gonna int their overall

limber lion
#

doesn't matter

#

you can time 20's with 440 ilvl

#

with any build

#

just play whatever is more fun to you

dark token
#

I'm sure I can time a 20 with 0 talent points

#

But doesn't mean it's optimal

limber lion
#

it's not

#

no one's saying it is

dark token
#

They care about being optimal for their keys

#

Why not recommend them the best build for a 20

limber lion
#

did you not read what I literally just said

dark token
#

Yeah it's prob only a few % diff

#

I read what you said I just don't like this fallacy people often say like "it doesn't matter till ur in the top 1% of content"

#

Everyone wants to optimize

sullen quest
#

And everyone benefits from it too

dark token
#

People copy the 1% because they want to play better

limber lion
#

that's not true

#

a lot of people ended up playing the cleave build because it gets rid of ct

#

and it's 100 times easier to play

#

literally just play whatever is the most fun to you

#

doesn't matter

#

they're all so close in output

#

literally does not matter

#

if we were to suggest the most optimal builds

#

then we would have to do that for every affix combo

#

and dungeon

#

because you wouldn't play one build in every dungeon

pallid kite
#

i started a war

limber lion
#

nah

fleet pagoda
#

I only play cleave because it's a functional middle ground for tyrannical. I'd rather play CT but it's an incredibly moot global in most keys, even on fortified weeks under 20

limber lion
#

CT is my #2 dps in every key that I do

#

around 15% or something

#

seems like a pretty good button to me

fleet pagoda
#

it is a good button, that's why I like it. but if things are dying so fast that rupture is out dpsing it, it's not worth taking for me

fallen forge
limber lion
#

How would Rupture ever outdps CT?

#

That's not a thing

pallid kite
#

that's my last dungeon

limber lion
#

CT by design does much more damage than Rupture will ever do in AoE

dark token
#

Btw

#

So if you garrote garrote CT a pack and it instantly dies

#

U will prob be top dmg

limber lion
#

Also CT plays into Sudden Demise more than Rupture

fallen forge
pallid kite
#

yes

#

i spread garrote then rupture

fallen forge
#

if i were running ct i would prio that first imo

dark token
#

All these people in lower keys or tyrannical weeks who think trash dies too fast should be playing a build with sudden demise

fallen forge
#

and then rupture the kingsbane target

pallid kite
#

i do rupture after garrote to get 5 targets for 20% agil

fleet pagoda
#

if he's playing SD then's playing SoB

#

yeah

dark token
fallen forge
#

i honestly skip it sometimes

dark token
#

Without kingsbane you are gonna want garrote garrote (garrote if 8t+) ct

fallen forge
#

shit dies too quick in a 20 anyway just send unoptimized kingsbane

dark token
#

Then do some fok rupture after

dark token
#

Like AP shock

pallid kite
#

so in a big pack for example i do as 3 garrotes for ex 9 targets than ct?

fallen forge
pallid kite
#

i guess ct once to get the bleed from it

dark token
#

Make sure u garrote a target without garrote on it to spread x3 rather than x2

#

Garrote garrote garrote on same target will only give you 7t, garrote garrote garrote on diff targets gives you 9t

#

If you are 6t or below just send CT rather than 3rd garrote to get a nightstalkered CT on whole pack

#

Big dam

#

You can amp the agility after with some fok rupture

#

Then shiv, start your caustic envenom spam and watch the pack explode (in low keys)

pallid kite
#

what does low keys means for you

#

under 20

dark token
#

Like weekly 20s or lower

pallid kite
#

?

dark token
#

Since it's the minimum key level I need for my vault

#

Hence low key

pallid kite
#

so short story big pack 3x garrote CT caustic shiv kingsbane and envenom

dark token
#

Nah don't bother with kingsbane unless you have something that can live it long enough

#

Or I guess you can send it if you aren't gonna use it for a minute anyway

pallid kite
dark token
#

Generally like something over 10m HP I will choose to dm/kingsbane it otherwise I hold

pallid kite
#

im not used to use death mark on big mobs too

dark token
#

Depends on other people's cooldowns as well

pallid kite
#

for ex in dht on 1st pull

dark token
#

In DHT you should deathmark the bear on first pull

pallid kite
#

i use on bear

dark token
#

Then kingsbane gryphons in pull 2

#

If it's back up

#

Probably won't be

#

Then the spiders are ok in fortified weeks

pallid kite
#

what's the diff between garrote garrote rupture rupture then CT and garrote garrote garrote CT

#

what's the big dmg between them

#

doesn't ruputre regenerate energy too?

dark token
#

You do the rupture before CT when you plan to be kingsbaning or dming a pack

#

Because you want that amped by scent of blood.the whole time

#

And it shortens ur opener before kingsbane

#

If you don't have kingsbane you just use a CT to get it's high dmg rolling

#

And then you can amp it with agi after with the fok rupture

#

Since it's a normal dot you don't need to maintain envenom or amp it more etc

#

6-9x garrote will give you enough energy

#

The ruptures are just for agility from scent of blood

pallid kite
#

should i apply caustic before i CT?

#

or after

dark token
#

No

#

After you finish CT and finish rupturing

#

Then you apply caustic and begin envenom spam

#

Until you need to refresh dots

river nexus
#

hi guys! I simmed my trinkets i got 489 pip and 483 accelerating sandglass. In mythic logs lots of people using sandglass but sim say different. Which one should i equip?

dark token
#

Most people are using sandglass cause it's easier to get

#

And pip is only a small improvement (in st)

#

Pip is also ur best aoe trinket

#

So just take that

river nexus
#

Okey thx a lot guys ^^

fleet pagoda
#

it's simming at a 400 dps difference so if you really want to have the sandglass equipped, send it man

#

it is all well and such

dark token
#

Nah pip is better for aoe so might as well equip it in st too

#

Also sim rings/enchants/gems again

#

Pip causes u to want more haste since it doesn't give it and sandglass does

#

If you regem both trinket setups pips will be a higher gain

#

Like .4-.5%

river nexus
#

okey got it

#

thx again

pallid kite
#

3x garrote CT rupture caustic shiv envenom this i s good for packs?

arctic hare
sullen quest
#

when do you CT anyway, 4+ like it says on wowhead?

dark token
#

Yes

sullen quest
#

Gotta scroll back and read a bunch of stuff when I have time later

dark token
pallid kite
#

then i should do 3x garrote CT and 2x Rupt

dark token
#

And 3 garrote only necessary if it's >7t pull

#

Yes

sullen quest
#

So overcapping CP so you can cast 3 garrotes back to back over using a rupture in between?

dark token
#

(this is for AP shock build btw)

sullen quest
#

if you can CT the pack

dark token
sullen quest
#

ic

#

and then the single rupture is there purely for caustic?

dark token
#

Rupture is for scent of blood stacks

#

And I advocate 2x rupturing not once

#

So you get 6 out, 5 stacks is max scent of blood

sullen quest
#

yeah so just always optimise carnage windows

dark token
#

Ye

pallid kite
#

and after that i guess shiv and caustic

dark token
#

Envenom spam is after you got all your bleeds out

#

Yup

pallid kite
#

in case of big pack i should kings after rupt

#

and then envenom

#

and when i slice n dice then

limber lion
#

You maintain Slice throughout the entire dungeon

#

from the very first pack of the dungeon

dark token
#

I mean slice and dice is maintained from previous pulls

sullen quest
#

yeah that's only relevant on the fisrt pull

dark token
#

Ye

sullen quest
#

or if you die

dark token
#

And first pull ur not doing this

#

Cause ur deathmarking

limber lion
#

always end packs with excess cp if you have long ways to run

#

but usually even that doesn't matter with cttc

dark token
#

In general I like to end with excess cp to do a CT or rupture right at start

#

Speeds up opener

limber lion
#

assuming <7 mobs that is

dark token
#

Ye

#

On first pull don't bother with ct

pallid kite
#

can i write a whole rotation to tell me if it's okay

dark token
#

Put slice n dice where CT is

#

And do dm/stuff after rupturing once

limber lion
#

I wouldn't

pallid kite
#

on bigger packs, 3x garrote- CT - rupture- shiv caustic - kingsbane - envenom and maintain then bleeds( rupture/garrote/CT)

limber lion
#

I would still prio CT > initial Rupture > Slice

#

This is a quick 8t sim that does CT first

dark token
#

It depends if the pack can live long enough or not

limber lion
#

Envenom second

#

Rupture third

#

Slice fourth

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
static glacier
dark token
#

I like to do a accelerated opener on first pull as everyone is popping CD and lust and usually it dies very quick

limber lion
#

It's true

dark token
#

Ye your way is more dmg

limber lion
#

which is when you would skip SND

#

not CT

#

And then you start 2nd pack with the excess cp

#

and use snd there

dark token
#

Haven't tried that but it makes sense with enough bleeds you don't need it

limber lion
#

Yeah you do most of your damage with bleeds in the first pack

#

and sd

limber lion
#

4+

sullen quest
#

7+?

#

How old

limber lion
#

4+ you start using CT actively

pallid kite
#

im lost jesus

sullen quest
#

below 4 you dont use it at all though?

limber lion
#

and that's also when you start introducing CT as your first finisher in 4+ target packs

#

Correct

dark token
#

CT is the highest priority finisher yes

sullen quest
#

I use carnage to garrote/rupture everything, then mutilate into CT

limber lion
#

Yeah that's not good

#

Gar gar gar ct then ruptures

dark token
#

People think it sucks because they don't use it till 25s into pull

#

It's omega damage

limber lion
#

Yeah of course it's gonna do 3% overall damage when you put up all ruptures, slice, maintain envenom AND then you CT

#

For me it's around 15% overall every dungeon

sullen quest
#

Wowhead says to optimise carnage windows with both garrote and rupture, but I suppose you can CT first and still do that

limber lion
#

and I do gar (gar (gar)) ct every pull

fleet pagoda
grim jay
sullen quest
#

yeah makes sense

dark token
#

And nightstalkered CT is way more dmg

#

Than nightstalkered rupture

#

I like to reapply CT in my shadow dance too

#

During dm window

#

As long as envenom won't drop

dark token
#

I also like to refresh early CT when mobs are low

#

Because sudden demise will proc it instantly

limber lion
#

yep

sullen quest
#

that's what I do to pad spitefuls

limber lion
#

Sudden Demise does not work in the sims so it's impossible to put value on that

dark token
#

Yeah wish we had an estimate for it

limber lion
#

But I also heavily emphasize bleed uptimes, especially IG and CT uptime whenever I play SD

#

Pretty much always shows that you should CT before Rupture

dark token
#

I assume you are playing AP shock tho

sullen quest
limber lion
#

The sim isn't

sullen quest
#

even on 4-6 pulls CT before ruptures

#

So what is it

#

😅

limber lion
#

You always CT before you press Rupture in 4+ targets

#

No matter how long the encounter

#

If there's 4 targets, you get garrotes up asap

#

then you get CT up asap

dark token
#

I would trust cev considering how much he kicks ass each time he actively plays the game

fleet pagoda
#

so in what context is the guide that says to rupture into CT?

limber lion
#

then you move into envenom/slice/ruptures

limber lion
#

We're simming it currently

sullen quest
#

I only called it into question

limber lion
#

but initial sims are showing that CT is better as the first finisher

dark token
#

Whispyr said there was prob a gain to CT early but he didn't sim it yet at start of patch when I asked

limber lion
dark token
#

Which is when guide was written

sullen quest
#

cool

limber lion
#

But yeah

#

4+ targets always ct first

#

3+ targets never press ct

#

If there's any ideas for sims, let me know and I can give them a shot as well

dark token
#

I need to sim if CT is worth on less targets if you have pad targets like spiteful

left sundial
#

you guys pooling until 200 energy?

dark token
#

Like if you have 2 real mobs and 3 spitefuls

#

Still worth to CT for the dmg on the 2 real ones?

static glacier
limber lion
#

what

sullen quest
dark token
#

Yes

limber lion
#

ct has a pretty large range

sullen quest
#

would be curious to know

limber lion
#

you can always get it off

#

it's much bigger and easier than IC ruptures

dark token
#

I think it's prob worth considering dmg amp

#

CT used to be 2+
