i loved doing the mage tower for this back in the day. mage tower actually taught me how to play the game
wish i got the outlaw one tho, only did assa and sub
if we have the mage tower weapon appearance unlocked can we still unlock the colors?
hi, im learning sin rogue for the first time, i played outlaw season 1 of DF. i was using Hekili to learnthe rotation initially, but now i feel like i sorta have a grasp on it. is there times where you are just energy starved or is that due to me being undergeared
Yes but also

TLDR:```- Outside of Cooldowns, you want to wait until your envenom is in pandemic/around 1 second in order to proc tier. This is the core concept of "chaining", where you clip envenoms back to back
- If it's getting uncomfortable to chain, or you have to let envenom drop, pool back up to around 80% energy, and then start another chain
- Always wait to envenom, never wait to mutilate/ambush. You want to generate your combo points as soon as possible, and then evaluate whether you should pool or use a finisher
- Without 4 piece, chaining envenoms has no benefit and you can try to be above 50% energy for sanguine
- With 4 piece, the chain takes priority over sanguine and you would play around the tier, not sanguine```The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and tier procs which is a more efficient energy use
Ur bis

mage tower - and that skin is from winning 10 rgb's, I think
gotta stop pressing buttons sometimes to chain envenoms later
i believe if u already unlocked the mage tower skin then you can get the others anytime
yup, correct
after googling it, im scared that i might have to unlock tints with the character i played when i unlocked the mage tower weaps
which means i wouldnt, cause that character is in other realm and other faction
mage tower weaps arent obtainable anymore
No, I didn't play rogue in legion
oh 😦
Cat main 
You can get this
cool enough
Jelly @spice spire ?????
??
I'm a cat of many faces
wish you could view that outside the legion hall thing
meow
yeah that was annoying
Where is it now?
there was always a BMAH vendor in the class hall, in DF they removed it
Valdrakken has one
the black market radio item from mechagon engineering thingy means you can access it anywhere
sounds expensive
nope


Thinking of swapping from Sub to Ass KB build, anyone got any pointers please - can’t wait to be an ass rogue 😂
!poison
Help help I’m being oppressed 
Tips are do damage, pray for PI.
Usually I just get beat up and called slurs

I get PI now I bribe the priests I get my own aug evoker too
Living on a prayer
???? What about the windfury?
Mf came from sub
The shaman usually dies 🤣
Surely he gets WFT
Aww shit I just realized I'm probably going to miss the smolderon kill
You can smolderon deez pal
I'm killing myself (in minecraft)
Sometimes I want to learn to play sub and then I read the chat in here and I’m like why would I ever leave
???????????
wdym?
I play sub, and I wrote a guide for it
and I'm still in here every day
lmao
Yeah all the good sub players are in here anyways
Oh I'm absolutely dogshit at this game

me too king
Me too king
Okay good. You can teach me when you move in

On dm
My macro for DM whispers "uwu" to my priest when its time, she's very responsive!
i gave my priest one of the audio queue pi reminders and changed it to a meow, he loves it
slowly but surely
ct build will rise
im playing hybrid build this week feels pretty good actually
with crimson tempest? 🤔
yes
I will copy you in my 23’s
You can't tell me what to do
I will cleave the shit out of the billion flowers in everbloom
i be simmin higher with toxic boot + blue silken > toxic boot + patch. anyone know if it meta?
honestly i like the ap shock build more in most lower keys
what are you doing when mobs live for well above the duration (guess they certanly do at your keys level) of rupture and garrote? you just reapply? or st one target?
yes reapply
feels like a lot of work reaplying all that stuff
nah I'm just playing cleave build 
cleave build ftw
idk it feels overwhelming when target count is above 4-6
although if I was gonna do lower keys that wouldnt work so, Shock for those
to reapply on all of them
does blue silken overperform in sims? even @ 60% it's simmin considerably higher than toxic booties?
im chilling in a +23-24 range 
yeah it feels good at those levels, got options for stuff that will live long enough and respect your KB duration
Silken is good for AoE
now im kinda tempted to try hybrid build ngl
it's simmin higher ST for me too
You guys are talking like swapping 5 talents is like installing a different game
tryna figure if it's bait or is gud
no one is saying that thought 🤔
it is 🙃
ok someone is saying that thought
any knowers knowing if blue silken is bait or outperformin booties
BSL is good if you get 60%+ uptime
by default we assume ~40% uptime
where it's better in AoE, but worse in ST
if you trust ur healers to crank and keep you at the threshold for most of the fight, you should use it
is 40% rly the average
but i dont
boots I find to be more versatile and reliable so, boots it is
i feel like 40% is unrealistic unless healers are super behind or it's like giga rot no?
in Mythic where damage is cranking all the time and every overlap is lethal
i dont think its that unrealistic
I mean if you are in a +10 that wont be an issue, +22 you might reconsider.
i do be in mythic, i still feel that super low
exxagerating here but in content where it matters, yeah 40% is pretty realistic when it matters
what's the most rot intensive fight in raid, im lookin nymue logs
idk our demon hunters are like 60% on that one
smolderon first kill had 35% uptime and 40% on reclear
other fights were a little bit higher
Keep in mind that if you dont have the uptime when it matters, it still doesnt help
whats the BSL threshold again? 90%?
doesnt take much to be below 90% hp
yep basically any mechanic would get you under
our demon hunters are like 65% on gnarlroot, which i assume is prob the healthiest, and 50% on smoldy
but they leech cheatin so hrmmm
but eh you do you, wanna use Silken? have at it
i want the best is all
embellishments are all close enough as to be insignificant difference
and tryna make best of playin all 3 specs >.< so silken lines up nice with sub
im tryna parse at this point not clear so :p
i care bout stupid %
and what about one lariat one silken
embelishments are like
if full gem
super not impactful
ooo didn't even look lariat
you can parse with either embellishment they wont affect that to a degree where it will make or break it
one lariat one silken sims higher than boots for me but idk how about uptimes same
like 1-2% between each other at best no? reckon it won't be a deal breaker unless you go full chef
of course, im tryna min max 
les
less
even better then :p
even if embellish is like 0.5% diff, the diff between top parse on a fight and 100th is like 10%, so every bit helps
we min maxin out here
can i be in the guild too 
i raid in another guild there
on grilled cheese
I hate running into guildies on this server
hey like I said you do you, some of the top parses dont even have embelishments, many have boots, some have silken, some might even have lariat, but you do you
I can't hide my stupid questions then
ik I also have to block out all of the names when i post screenshots that make me reee
in raid

for what reason would u blacklist me from ur guild
like 1/100, id rather be in the 99 xd
mayo is way too good fr
silken is kinda bait for prog fights
and end bosses
if you're good it can be useful in m+
i mean i wanna find what's best, but at the same time I just wanna be able to play my 3 specs without having some cringe crafted mastery helm in my outlaw set :}
do i just bind the augment into a skill
i do that for the most used abilities yerp
yeah on nymue, my guild's BSL uptime was 52% on our DH and 37-31% for everyone else
If you're really min maxing i feel like you're gonna want 2 sets anyway, no?
yerp. a man's only got so many aspect crests though 
it took me forever to remember what the name of the BSL buff .-.
did u have to focus
then minmax those crests 
that what im tryna figure out 
the most annoying part fo sho is just the 3 or 4 embellishments alongside outlaw disliking mastery
I was simming for a new belt and was trying to find the best middle ground for sin/outlaw stats wise
gotta be crit vers right
Ended up with some cursed vit/mastery abomination
maybe crit haste
🎉
oh damn is it tyran this week?
no
oh damn is it fort this week?
tyrannified

question, if im saving shadow dance and vanish for kings how do i do aoe?
can use dance and vanish on big tyran boss and save for restealth on adds
unless you're goin a period without needing the restealth for bleed cleave, you'll only have fan, spatter, and tempest. i like to save the dance and vanish for AoE restealths, especially if you're tank is chain pulling
In AoE opening with 3x gar 3x rup is usually more than enough and then let spatter + 4 set carry the rest
Usually use vanish to re DoT though in high enough keys
2xgar then ct then 2 rupture and I’m into kb times is how I’ve been playing
Snapshot that CT just for funsies
Hell yeah
I usually 3x gar when there is more than 5 targets, if less, then 2x
ye i skip envenom
unless its a huge mob that will live
The more targets there are the more I feel like snapshotting ct which is gonna hit all of them is more important. Maybe the math doesn’t work out but that’s just what I’ve been doing
if i kings on trash, do i still muti or jkust fan envome?
Mutilate to keep spatter up but otherwise fok
id save vanish for restealthing and my shadow dance macroed with KB
should i unmacro my dance from KB?
and i let empowered garrote fall off before putting a new one up yea?
Yeah
In m+, When you are in the opener and applying multiple ruptures/garrotte, you apply it to a target that doesn't have a rupture right? on or does IC make it not matter?
yes and no.
It has smart targeting, which means IC will target enemies that do not have that debuff applied to them.
But if you target a target that already has it, that target will get one of the debuffs, which means you spread to one less (given enough targets)
back to cheat death.
Thanks.
How much vers did u have ?
Elude this 
I might
My crit is bigger than yours
It ain’t the amount of the crit, it’s the amount of times it happens
So ive been opening on the dummy and im getting like 40ish stacks on kings but my sim shows me getting 72 am i doing something wrong here?
Are you simming with raid buffs?
1t3m 0 buffs
Oh shit I forgot to mention I had my kb parried for the first time this patch today
Truly a keyboard breaking moment when it happens
you're using my WA to see the stacks?
yea i ahve yours
dont judge how undergeared i am but i actually got an upgrade from world boss
RNG smiles
Yeah. Opener on last boss in fall. Barely did any damage
thought world boss was fake loot
yeah i dunno, even during raid i usually get like 50~ stacks, while sims shows 99.
i don't think my WA is wrong though, it tracks every possible deadly poison application.
does sim just assume you get 2 every attack?
not afaik
Do you mean every lethal application not just deadly?
yeah
I'm so sorry
Thank you. We still timed with 10 minutes left
Poggiewoggie
basically because every hit has a change to apply 2 poisons. and mutilate is two hits, right? so each mutilate has a chance to apply 4 stacks.
so me getting 40 might not actually be terrible then
from what i've noticed with my WA, that's around average. 50+ is good.
But i've never seen it go up to 99, so not sure where's the difference coming from
is the wa keeping deathmark doubling in mind?
How can you tell how many stack with the weak auar? I just see x500% or whatever
I thought with DM it would double the poison applied event.
@slate crown do you know something about this?
in latest version i changed it to show stacks instead of percentage.
I do not know anything specific about this beyond my opinions
That said
is the WA yall talking about this Notters KB Tracker?
If DM doubles lethal poison applications, it must double their damage events
In the combat log
I assume
The only options are it doubles the damage events, or it doubles the existing events damage, the latter seems very odd and unlikely to me
That said, if it's something like
Amp stacks
That might not have a doubled event count for aura_refresh
Because it might just double the stacks you get from it, with the same number of aura_refresh events, I'm not sure
Probably best to pull up a log to check
it's different spell id's
The duplicated deadly/amp?
yeah
Then the event counts should be independent
!dagger
I'll go test
now that i look at log, it does look that way
different amp poison during DM
never noticed it before
learned that one real quick when I was blacklisting auras from plater
plater just shown you every debuff on target?
well, most
but you press deathmark and all of sudden your target nameplate is full of new deadly poison, new amp, new garrote, new rupture, new deathmark
and you're like "ah"
"can't see a GODAMN THING"
well looks like i gotta do some adjustments to my WA
@upbeat needle I'll let you know when it's fixed, thanks for catching that, it's something that bothered me as well!
someone call my mom, i got pinged!
now the question is, do i do it the dumb way (if DM than make number * 2)
or actually track the events 
@slate crown got like 20 triggers almost as it is
@upbeat needle 
and the moments over lol

Ya could always look at consolidating some (not necessarily all) Combat Log triggers into a custom CLEU trigger, you can specify sub-event types in the Event field for CLEU
Don't have to use Watched Triggers for everything
If you're like me, if you go the *2 way, every time you look at the aura you're going to be thinking about it. Every time
😂😂
and without PI sheeesh
how hybrid in terms of boss damage?
Hi all, i'm question, during the fight should I maintain 150/300 for [Sanguines blades] ?

Ok, so I just have to stick with maintaining Envenom.
clipping envenom
should i be refreshing rupture before i start chainning?
You want to keep your bleeds up 100% of the time if they are gonna fall and it stops your chain to refresh you then pool back to 80% energy and start your envenom chain again
so i do that while i wait for kings to come back and when its up i should still have enough energy for that?
kinda like this
first envenom is not pooled, the other 2 are
you do that when you are out of cds, your bleeds are rolling
Every time I see this gif I am reminded of how much I need it but can't use it
Just join whispyrs discord
ty king
what is the advice on pooling 50% for sanguine blades.
scroll up slightly
I couldn't see where the gif was from to know which discord to join
I need to add more emotes to my own server but lately Whispyr is doing all the work for me so why start now
Ur sub
(no buffs)
I am all
Gigachad




crimson tempest damage is kinda bonkers ngl (wm +23)
CT good. Especially when it gets to tick
yes
embrace the CT

dont listen to no CT propoganda
problem with CT, i either forget to use it, or i use it too much.
why the fuck you pressing ct in single target big dog

i thought ct on st was dmg loss
why wouldnt i
you don't use CT until 4
it was only good on bugged bosses when u have dmg amp
with sanguine blades bug
now useless
i'll listen to the no ct propaganda because i like having 1 less button to press 
when Rupture 
snapshoting rupture in multi target = gae

then fok envenom and go into kb? im writing your opener down 

k, I kinda messed up my ct damage in that wm 23
I never shapshoted it kekw
and used it in st
now we know 
@dark token you go hybrid or arterial shock?
i go hybrid build
except where tank doesnt want slow poison
then i go ap shock
(on fort weeks)
ataldazar tank doesnt want slow poison for better juggernaut baits for example
or sanguiine weeks i would go AP shock
slow poison = crippling poison? im defaulting to mind numbing
ye
im really new at assa
11s for wyrms
hybrid build needs a big target to cleave from
yes
ap shock is actually more ST than hybrid build
cool i like big st
im gearing my assa specially for raiding
too many warriors in my guild already
and we gonna start a mythical core
I have heard conflicting information on using finishers at 4/6 combo points
is that okay or is it 5/6 and up
4cp+ with the 4pc
oh gotcha just for envenom
Which 4 set bonus would you want to become a talent assuming we could only pick one
i feel like that's the only choice, the other two 4pc bonuses aren't really interesting at all
Is there anything that’s talent-worthy aside from the current 4pc
s3 is gameplay and gameplay talents are good
The rest are just “does 20% more damage” lmao
ye talents should have nice gameplay
only reason im ok with s2 2pc is because we need more aoe talents
S2 4pc doesn't change gameplay much but it smooths out damage
smoothing out dmg is a bad thing
S2 4pc was also insanely hated
ye its really lame
Its hated but its not bad
Not bad in what way exactly
In that in gives DM aoe potential. It just comes after
Isn’t that just caustic spatter now
Spatter isn't a tier bonus
Im thinking of it from a perspective of the bonus would have to replace or share a talent node that already exists
Like we could get s3 4set as a talent but where would it go
open Assas, see soviet talking about CT, close assas 
Choice node with amp poison
ct is rising
Someone said CT out loud and his hair stood on end
It’s like a dog seeing a squirrel ya know
Goes bonkers
ct is life
Never feels like I can make use of CT. Maybe I just do keys too low
I like ct but I’m sure af not voting for s2
you ever get to the end of a pack and a captain mob is still alive. then the CT was a wasted global 
which is all of the fkin time

the key is you then envenom there
Yeah this
And if you envenom all the time why talent into CT
i like CT
dont @ me
goated button
nah
@thorn fjord
hybrid build is KING

of fort
I love the button. Just dont feel it has a place rn with dh and pally just shredding any mobs that give it use
this is not news
Just don’t invite pally or dh
you're playing a pad spec compared against everyone playing a prio spec
build*
no one is arguing it does more overall
I dont always do my own key
also i would probably play AP shock on ataldazar 100% of time now
because slow poison is an int on juggernauts
Debateable. I dont take it for everbloom which is arguably the one place it gets the most value on paper
there are lots of keys where the trash living past your cc chain is rly rly bad
like dht
Yeah but at the same time, I would say DHT is the best dungeon for CT
No mobs there really die quickly
CT or BRH if you are using SD mabe
It’s good times tho
yeah das true
Opinion deleted from my mind
but i still need to argue with soviet
if i won't do it who will
beside literally everyone else in the discord

Okay im playing ap shock for the rest of the week
Who is soviet someone ping him
You were literally just talking to him?? Scroll up bro 
As if I look at names i just shoot to shoot
very murican of you
i hear "CT" is dogshit in keys, whats that about?
👀

i play m+ for big dam fun
you can casually get title playing sin
if i wanted r1 optimal setup i would play outlaw

bsl
i mean i just play arterial if i want fat overalls
or cleave to brain afk on something big
I stopped concerning myself with fat overalls :/. Need to stop pugging
Pug tanks cant even respect me enough to let me stealth. Then its "interrupts"
Tell them if they want interrupts they need to let you get iron wire off.
No stealth no interrupt.
whats bsl

Hi, just came back to WoW after a break, highest keys I ran back in BFA was the low 20s, is DF much different, been doing some 18+ keys. Is this spec still good, back then I ran a haste build and i guess now it's not the go to? Mastery right?
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.
Back in bfa it was hard to pug groups, most have never seen a assassin rogue in higher keys and eveyrone wanted outlaw
Still the same here I guess lol
iirc BFA capped at 10's for vault, so 20's in BFA would be more like 25's-30's
I don't remember it ever being 10
Ahh I see, thank you
Difficulty wise so a +22 would be equal to like 28-29?
22+ in s4 bfa
Ehh people did +30 in BFA as well
idk about that much, it probs not linear, but they did stretch out the difficulty curve
Ahh ok
god damn man when do you sleep soviet
Not enough
Church of CT I like that
that's the answer to "how much"
Can we update the sin reacts to have CT and sudden demise @balmy condor
I need to know when
Highest timed I did was a 22, I refuse to go outlaw hah
also season 1 of BFA was deffs a 10 cap
need an egg timer for when I can safely come back
Considering everyone takes sanguine blades and snd now
No please
wild
Don’t feed the ptsd
We should get the reacts for Sudde demise and CT to see what builds people like
i started in legion pre patch and i recall the 10 being cap, unsure when it went back to 15
coulda been a later season or not til SL
I remember doing a +15 weekly key in season 1 of legion for the first week
And it was a 3 hrs long tyrannical vault of wardens
Gross
So there was some benefit to going 15 for sure
Unfortunate
and i remember being carried in 15's to get vault stuff
The real legion experience was farming upper for that damn trinket
Anyway a BFA 30 is probably equivilant to this season 30 but this season 20 is around the same as BFA 15
Cause of the scaling diff
Are we leveling to 80 in ww?
i hope so, i'm tired of seeing level 80 characters on my friends list, and they're in classsic
Macro ashes to KB
Mm
good idea
i was thinking deathmark because of equal cooldown, but youre right, tyty
kb technically has an equal cd
yep
Mine was macroed to deathmark 
pretty sure the start of BFA was +10

at least on launch of S1 m+
dunno how long it lasted
Imagine playing bfa
is there something wrong with the assass 2pc?
it says nature damage increased but its increasing all my damage, am i missing something

Nothing matters man
too real
You matter, man
in ap shock build do we still hold shiv charges for kb?
im having a hard time figuring out when to use kb in ap shock, i tend to want to refresh my bleeds instead of bursting an specific target, without spatter to cleave i feel like im sacrificing aoe and i end up pressing less kb and less shiv and focusing too much on getting ic + sudden demise value
In an ideal world, it's bleeds on all the targets you want > DM/SD/KB. But depends on how fast stuff is dying. Sometimes, you don't get that luxury and it's just spatter > DM/KB and go
yoooo
i wasnt specced into spatter
in my ap shock build
🫠
which is why i didnt want to go into kb

Hello strangers. New here and im just curious if theres an "ultimate" 2ndary stat-balance for raid / m+ (20+ keys) like 40/15/65/10 or something 😄 i guess its easier to determin that for lets day Volcaros. Any tips?
No there’s not
ur a king 
Because different trinkets and different races will move your stats in a certain direction
There’s a bis list but outside of that just focus on trinkets and weapons. Sim the rest
Alright. Just sim the hell out hej gear?

Do 2 blue silken lining stack?
Yes
Cool
So uhm Im a acrobatic strikes enjoyer. Is there anything non crucial to drop for me to talent it or is it impossible?
Some people drop thistle tea, I personally get anxious with a no tea build tho
wowhead has a no dance build you could try
takes ER + lethality over the dance branch
for M+ I think its recommended to drop tea cause we're energy flooded on packs (most of the dungeon)
But doesnt that feel ass in st with no Tea?
Yeah i guess. It feels so bad without it tho, personal preference
imo, it only feels like ass during non-DM KBs
cause running out of energy outside of DM happens anyways, regardless of tea
and i dont mind pooling
but it would feel pretty bad if env drops cause im out of energy during KB
would need to adjust my muscle memory to pool more before it
I feel like in AFK on some mechanics cus Im out of range to survive
Just drop deeper and not tea
Its not that i think its impossible without it just a quality of life thing
Thanks for the answers I’ll try some stuff out
gl
is there any weird interaction with tricks ? had an assassination try to tricks me some mobs (not aggroed) and he got meleed by them
it depends on the targe, some bosses do hit the closest target first, it is why you sometimes get smacked when attacking bosses too early in raid
What's the exact science behind wanting to envenom as close to the previous one dropping as possible? Is it just the envenom chaining/pooling to let energy regen and slow down the pace a bit to keep it going longer or is there like an actual "If you hit this within 1 second, it does X% more damage" just not in the tooltip?
Or am i just being silly
for 20 keys, is it advised to ever drop CT? I don't feel like I get the most out of it atm
depends on dungeon but drop it from 23-24 only imo
especially in fortified
no its to save energy and proc the 4set
that's what I meant - the damage increase isn't from proccing the set itself and it won't do more damage the better you chain, it's just energy management permitting us doing more?
4p
hey folks!
I have problem with regen energy, after opener or at a long fight i am struggling without energy at some point. Any ideas or advice for me?
thats assa
keep bleeds running
dont spam muti every gcd
i mean
thats wrong
you "spam" mut when possible
you dont spam finishers
GENERATE CP as soon as possible
but only spend when needed outside of cds
when possible isnt every gcd
I saw somewhere that there is a spreadsheet for rogue defensives in M+ made by Whispyr -- where is that exactly?
Nvm, it looks like "Book of Shadows" isn't available anymore. Is there anything like it that shows what can and cannot be mitigated using Rogue defensives??
use elusivness and its everything
it was flowers + elementalist + stinger in Everbloom.
could it have been a case of:
stealth > cast skill > get meleed before skill hits and redirects?
2 fast questions:
-it's a DPS loss if I use Envenom on 5-6CP instead of 4 in the Kingsbane window? (considering that I have my envenom buff always on)
-it's a huge DPS loss if I use rupture during my SD/KB window? (same case as above)
If you land on 4CP and you still use Mutilate to get to 6, yes it's a loss.
And no, you can refresh Rupture if it's in pandemic and your Envenom doesn't drop because of it
what cev said
If you notice your Rupture going low, you can try to force a 5-6CP Envenom instead of a 4CP one just to make sure it doesn't drop during the reapplication of Rupture
no, ofc no lost, 4+ cp means "at 4 cp its good to use a finisher" and not "if you do 5 or 6 its bad"
and rupture during KB is really just if you can keep envenom up or not, if envenom doesnt drop its w/e
Thanks
so it isn't troll to use mutilate at 4cp (outside of cds), so you have bigger window to refresh rupture and don't drop chain?
also it is impossible to refresh rupture without dropping chain at 5cp envenom? unless your next mutilate lands at 4cp
I am always trying to do 5-6CP envenom before refreshing rupture to not let the buff fall off
can you refresh it in 5cp envenom window tho? 🤔
ye ofc you do 4,5,6 when you don't need to refresh rupture
but when you do
you only need 6
Yeah, but I don't think you can refresh rupture without losing the envenom buff with just 4CP 😛
unless you get giga luck with Blindside 😄
it's just
or 5 and pray that next mutilate lands on 4
not worth worrying about
you drop envenom, you just pool back to 80% and go agane
there's no meaningful gain to trying to plan into a 5/6cp env before refreshing rupture
it just doesn't matter
it's also like.. not griefing or anything
so if you want to do that
sure
just seems like a waste of brain globals
it's not hard to do this prep
yeah i mean no single thing you do in wow is hard
but it also gains you nothing
so 
the tradeoff is like you either use mutilate at 4-5cp to refresh during chain, or lose like 5 sec of envenom uptime no?
you don't really "lose" the uptime
if you drop env a little early at higher energy
then it won't take as long to pool back up
so you make it up by starting a new chain sooner
if you were at super low energy when you drop it, then it was going to drop soon anyways
and you'd have been pooling back up in a few globals either way
yes, found out it don't track the extra stacks during deathmark

Turns out during DM, the "doubled" poisons have a different spell ID

and in the combat log i can see it's 394325 for deadly poison.
But it doesn't show up in any event in-game
makes sense I guess 🤔
oh nevermind, it does show in-game
EXCEPT NOT WHEN USING POISON KNIFE
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
TIL - poison knife doesn't double your Deadly Poison when you use Deathmark.
discord media server is fucked atm
Isnt everything kinda fucked atm
Youtube doesnt work properly for me
youtub works fine, twitter works fine, reddit loads fine, twitch too
it could be cloudflare related, but discors shows issues with their media server on the status website
!up
knife dream deadge, it's all over

OH it's because you're AU so you're upside down. now I get it

Maybe its just germany atm
Becuase some people have Problems
And had problems yesterday
Yes just do what the sim says
Is there any weakaura that creates distractions on screen to simulate raid distractions to practice rotation? I find that on dummy I don't make many mistakes but in raid I made some big mistakes in my rotation
Like something to click on screen so you have to multitask
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I can join discord with you and you can listen to my kids scream while you practice your rotation
Just do what I do and create auditory overstimulation via metal pipe sound effects
no cap i was in a guild where one of the ppl would afk at home with their mic open and we could randomly just hear their kids howling from time to time. it was equal parts hysterical and nerve-shattering
!up
I have very low healing from recuperator so that's why i'm asking
ofc its the entire time
ye cus the heal is a joke AND its bugged
like
the talent is just a placeholder
Oh ok
that would be more than 17k over 3 mins
like, the problem with healing talents/selfheal stuff is
it only really matters if it means a healer actually doesnt need to heal you or can help you sustain a bit longer trought heavy dmg (and then its really fucking OP)
aka things like warlock stronger healthsstones
99% of healing talents themself are not doing anything really, cus like, you take dmg from a group dmg mechanic->healer NEEDS to heal and top everyone anyway and will do it mostly with aoe heals or cd's, it doesnt matter if you are at 30% hp or at 36% cus of some meme selfheal thing
yea my thinking exactly. I'll just take aoe blind everywhere even when i wouldn't use it
just to save myself from having to retalent that
tbf, the aoe blind+blackjack is really strong and played almost everywhere anyway
cus like
what else do you wanna take there lmao
gouge?
tricks?
lol
I had blackjack for nothing basicly and recup so i took aoe blind
always irritant. tricks can be good though
especially on big pulls like in throne or EB
you can somtimes tag a mob that the tank has like 0 aggro on and get bonked
but blackjack is pretty okay too
Hey, just wanted to let you guys know I've released a new version of the kingsbane WA
Thanks to @upbeat needle to bringing to my attention it didn't track poison stacks amount correctly when using deathmark (at which point, every poison application is doubled)
(And as always thanks @slate crown for the help in implementing improvements to the code)
Now you should be seeing your poison stacks going as high as they should
upon reaching the cap (99) it will say "MAX"

(also opened a ko-fi haha 👉🏻 👈🏻 )


ayyyy maybe now i wont feel like shit compared to my sim
Thanks Notter! Is there an easy way of adding a timer to the kingsbane icon to show how much longer it’s active for?
thank you based notter
Does anyone have a go to video to watch for learning assa? I've only played outlaw and just got my head around it but would like to learn assa as going into mythic prog soon! It seems like 30 buttons are needed!
you can show the timer if you disable hiding it.
but i've done that because it continues showing a countdown after KB is over, showing the linger duration for the WA.
so i don't suggest doing it, but it's up to you.
Thank you so much!
Look up Whispyr on Youtube. All his videos about assassination are on there
Thank you!!!

Do you still FoK over mutiliate at 3+ targets even if you're in the single target build? even if blindside procced?
Wowhead guide seems to imply so but it feels bad in raid not sure if it's just feelscraft
eh
4+ tbh
like, when you can actually get more CP from using FoK then you get from using mut
and you are using mut/ambush sometimes anyway, cus like, gotta trigger splatter
is lariat still good when we have full sockets?
at 3 i fok and ambush with blindside
no idea if its correct
at 4 always fok
How would you get Blindside procs if you only use FoK?
Same goes for you @hardy wagon
apply caustic
So you don't always FoK then
the whole fok thing is
very cringe
technically the rule is 2+dtb
so like arterial shock in m+?
would fok on 2
always learning
yeh it's just
if you take that onto like a 2 target patchwerk fight
it looks kinda cringe
assassination AoE is always a very delicate balance
it is finnicky
the sim has basically 3 opportunities to decide what to use
it goes through its list, does all the cooldowns and whatever
if it sims well for you, then yes
and then it goes:
"do I need to maintain caustic"
and if yes, it obviously muts/ambushes
just fat finger cheap shot and not worry about it
"what is the better combo point builder"
which is the 2+dtb rule
and the last one is "do I need to spread poisons for bleed energy"
where it would choose to tab-mut on 2, or fok on 3
what the sim can't do very well on top of that
yeah issue is siming it with all the different gems before crafting it, but i have nothing else to craft so might as well try it
You can just add sockets to your gear and see if it sims better or not
but if you're just aoe'ing with no bother
You can do anything in sims
You don't need to have the item or the sockets to sim them
cause now deathmark and kingsbane and mutilate applying poisons, means you get aoe
while also getting single target
so is the goal "more damage"
or "more damage to X target"
is there a way to make your target clearer on the ground in aoe situations? sometimes when im aoe'in a big pack all them nameplates stack on top of each other and the screen is a mess and i press a button and im not facing towards targets or ive gone so much in for FoK that I passed my target already
But yes, it's possible for Lariat to sim the best at max sockets for some profiles.
uhhh i meant like how top gear can do the replace gems thing
Yes that's what you can do
without having the item
and the sockets
You just add the item to your inventory in the string
You don't actually need to have it
Easy way is to sim Gear Compare
And then you just copy the string from the Raw Input
I mean visually no, but that sounds like bad nameplates
You just scroll down and find it there.
Then you take the string, put it next to all the other items in your inventory, and then take the big simc string to Top Gear
will do thank you love you
Good luck
prob my plates arent stacking close enough to each other
i did change them to match my new ui
there's also options to highlight your target nameplate
