royal lantern
#

meanwhile outlaw players: its the hardest dps spec in the game bro!!! APM APM APM!!!!

unique sentinel
#

Yeah just need or two ambush. And its outlaw you’ll always have energy to spam that shit

#

Yeah it spreads

misty holly
#

Ahh okay, back in legion Im pretty sure it didnt

unique sentinel

Check "LEs group"

Has rupture and garrote empowering tracking

#

You can just rip the auras out, don't need the whole group

#

Mby it's on the profile as a standalone as well

fallow canopy
#

ah so this is how it feels

#

people that did this shit completely unnerfed are some gigachads

gusty mirage

subtle tundra
#

how do people level alts

#

60-70

#

except boosts

#

i will not pay

fallow canopy
#

if you are willing to sacrifice your sanity you can spam TW when its up

subtle tundra
#

fast thistle
#

hey guys, i'm trying play with assassination on m+, actually doing 140k on keys lv 18-20, and i'm doing the rotation for aoe : Garrote >Garrote > Rupture> Mutilate > slice and dice > Mutilate > Deathmark > Shiv > Shadow dance > Kingsbane > Garrote / Ambush > Envenom ... And the question is, what i'm missing, what is wrong?

misty holly
#

Pay a mage to pull Scarlet Monastary and AoE it down.

#

good xp

subtle tundra
#

I JUST SAID I DONT WANT BOOST

fallow canopy
#

questing is the fastest I guess, haven't tried with the dreamwalking buff thingy

thorn fjord
subtle tundra
#

HOW CAN I DO TIMEWALKING WHEN THERE IS NO TIMEWALKING

thorn fjord
#

You wait till there is

subtle tundra
#

WHAT( THEF CK

#

I WANT TO PLAY THIS WEEK

thorn fjord
#

Can run through the campaign

royal lantern
#

do some questing man

thorn fjord
#

It sucks but prob yields the best results

subtle tundra
#

ofc i can do quests but im asking since there's usually a clear faster way

earnest remnant
#

i just spammed dungeons

#

but i was tanking

subtle tundra
#

i dont want to spend 6 hours when i can do 3

earnest remnant
#

so made it quite fast

thorn fjord
#

Varas just being difficult now 🤣

subtle tundra
#

?!?

#

you guys are telling me to do timewalking

#

when there's none

#

how am i difficult

#

ive barely played the expac, idk what people do so im asking

fallow canopy
#

questing basically then

jaunty dew
#

Anyone knows why the Afenar whispyr edit is loading when playing other classes? :S

cloud goblet
#

If you already have dragonriding, questing through the campaign is decently quick

misty holly
cloud goblet
#

And even then you get dragon riding fairly quickly in the campaign so it doesn't make it such a slog

gusty mirage
jaunty dew

#

someone ran into some issues yesterday and he said he was going to reupload it

#

I'd just bother him until he does KEKW

jaunty dew
#

xD

thorn fjord
#

@subtle tundra suck but best bet is either questing.. normal dungeons till you can run heroic or waiting till TW

#

Think you can do BGs too but that would suck

runic hinge
#

You can do professions for a level too

stone forge
#

can anyone explain why we use deeper stratagem if we use finishers at 4?

balmy condor
#

5% more finisher damage and less cp overcap

stone forge
#

in case it happens?

#

like a safety net for lost CP

balmy condor
#

kind of I guess?

#

if you mutilate on 3cp

#

and you have a max of 5

#

any seal fate cp will go to waste

#

if you have a max of 6, you're gonna be able to get 1cp from seal fate with no issue

stone forge
#

aah yes

#

interesting

old halo
#

F in chat for our last pull last night

rotund oak
#

we had our last pull on 0.8%

thorn fjord
#

I'll show you sucks

strange trail
#

I just downloaded whispyr's plater, and a msg came up in chat to 'reset range check distance settings if necessary', these range settings are okay, right? or do i need to adjust

keen spruce
#

I think whispyr was gonna update somethin

#

iirc

strange trail
keen spruce
#

idk the patch broke a bunch of stuff. idk if he just has to like

#

republish his plater profile or somethin

#

@balmy condor

#

confirm plzz

strange trail
#

it broke my graphic settings . _ .

keen spruce
#

idk ApuShrug

balmy condor
#

I jus did

strange trail
balmy condor
#

the range checks shouldn't really matter tho

gaunt sigil
#

My guild is starting to see good prog with the tswift nerfs coming through, -20% in one night!

#

More like -15% but still big

#

We are extending for the first time next week though so hopefully we kill next week

strange trail
#

or even making it bigger idk

balmy condor
#

should all be in the general settings

balmy condor
#

we're so shit

#

I need the ego boost

thorn fjord
gaunt sigil
#

I’m so excited to get CE for the first time speedrave

thorn fjord
#

Think of it this way

#

The faster you get CE the faster you’ll have nothing to do in the game till WW

#

Enjoy the ride 🤣

balmy condor
#

the faster I get CE the faster I can enjoy not playing the game

thorn fjord
#

Amen

#

I can’t fucking wait

gaunt sigil
#

Our guild is extending next week, and if we don’t kill we are gonna continue full clearing or a couple weeks and try again

#

At least that’s what they said

thorn fjord
#

Prob level a mage alt for S4

gaunt sigil
#

I’m gonna farm parses as much as I can after CE

#

I’m a parse slut

#

For the 10.2 partition I was so close to top 150 for Assa and I feel like I can get it for sure this time

balmy condor
#

well yeah

#

now that there's only 147 people playing assa anymore

#

you're for sure making it to top 150

thorn fjord
#

Based

gaunt sigil
#

Wait has the pool died that much?

thorn fjord
#

Also the further you get in to mythic the easier it is to place higher

thorn fjord
balmy condor
#

idk depends on what the pool means

#

because yeh

#

all star points aren't weighted

#

so if you kill tindral for example that's just +100 points or whatever

#

that other people don't even have access to

gaunt sigil
#

Aight top 50 TR3_pout

balmy condor
#

so like if you killed fyrakk right now you'd be like top 25 all stars or something

#

just because you killed it

gaunt sigil
#

If I don’t get top 25 by the end of the season I cut my balls off

balmy condor
#

the bar is getting higher and higher

thorn fjord
#

Let’s see some cut balls people

#

Go and prog

keen spruce
#

we're not reclearing for all of .5

balmy condor
#

but yeh in 10.2.5 there's 52 assa kills on smold

keen spruce
#

so back to the gulag

balmy condor
#

in 10.2 it was 165

thorn fjord
#

I’ll try sin on smold during a reclear

keen spruce
#

I'm no longer a parse princess. I am only here to bring the vibes

#

and proc wep enchants

balmy condor
#

so top 150

#

doesn't sound that bad

keen spruce
thorn fjord
#

Yeah I’m sure it is

#

My muscle memory is just set to sub

gaunt sigil
#

Damn so I was actually just being carried by having a good guild and not being a good player

#

Cringe

balmy condor
#

kinda yeh

#

all star points are a fucking sham

gaunt sigil
#

I had all purples except smold suvidrAngry

thorn fjord
#

Still better than the average

runic hinge
#

I don’t even know what all star points mean

gaunt sigil
#

I wanted to play Assa S2 but my old guild said I needed to stay on war and also M+ was kinda cringe on Assa S2 imo

thorn fjord
#

Kinda?

keen spruce
#

all star points assign a point value from like 1-120

#

based on your prase %

#

so rank 1 is 120 points for that boss

#

or something idk if it's different this tier

#

it was 120 in abberus

balmy condor
#

and if that sounds dumb

#

it is

gaunt sigil
#

Idk I personally just enjoy Assa a lot so S2 M+ was still ok for me

#

They really just should make it 0-100 no?

keen spruce
#

i mean it doesn't matter

#

they all get added up to your all star score

#

not averaged

gaunt sigil
#

I mean yeah it’s still stupid but it’s be slightly less stupid

keen spruce
#

if they averaged all of your bosses then it would make sense to make it max 100

#

so that it kind of matched your average parse %

balmy condor
#

all star points in general are just real silly

keen spruce
#

but then there'd be no point to have all star points

balmy condor
#

it's like ilvl %

#

but worse

keen spruce
#

i mean there already isn't a point

gaunt sigil
#

But if it was average, If you just did 100 on first boss you’d have rank 1

keen spruce
#

but yeah

#

it's just to make them different

balmy condor
keen spruce
#

so it'd average to something bad

#

low 10's or somethin

gaunt sigil
#

Idk parsing in general is kinda cringe, especially with PI and Aug

#

Don’t get me wrong, I still wanna farm parses, but it’s also stupid

keen spruce
#

Augs*

storm forum
#

Shmeeps would you join up with all the other duck pfp lads from other class discords and beat up weirdos with duck pfp that give the duck pfp gang a bad rep?

runic hinge
gaunt sigil
#

Guess I need to do more keys

keen spruce
#

this is good season to push on assas

#

everyone has basically abandoned it

runic hinge
#

I can tell people I was a top 100 rogue in the world with zero context and it’s technically true

keen spruce
#

but it's still quite stronk

storm forum
#

Sorry, it was just a theoretical. I needed to know if the duck people are real.

runic hinge
#

Duck mafia

thorn fjord
runic hinge
#

Oh lol

plain moon
#

Ducks are clearly the !bis profile pic

dark token
#

Assa is quite good yes

#

Outlaw is better

#

But assa still dumps most of specs in game

#

It's kinda like BM hunter

#

Big damage but has some trouble living at highest key levels

#

But you can easily get title on it imo

subtle tundra
dark token
#

It feels stronger than sub was in s1/2 for example

subtle tundra
#

bm is kinda tanky brother

#

welcome to df

dark token
#

They have more hp than us sadly

#

Rogue needs more HP

#

For real

keen spruce
#

assas with 2m evasion and not stam buff in the tree

subtle tundra
#

not outlaw

#

fuck outlaw

keen spruce
#

and not stacking vers

dark token
#

It's pretty bad being 1shot by stuff 2 key levels below everyone else

keen spruce
#

makes us pretty fkin squish

dark token
#

The stam talent needs to be in the class tree

#

It's pretty absurd only outlaw gets it

subtle tundra
#

well this season just exarcebates the issue that we are squishier

dark token
#

Especially when it was 10%

keen spruce
#

I mean with feint we're still tankier than most specs in the game

#

just not tankier than the meta ones

dark token
#

Yes but also feint is predictive mitigation, there is some stuff that will just 1tap you unless you constantly pre feint it

#

And that is shit gameplay loop

keen spruce
#

not much

#

but yeah

#

we have no passive durability

dark token
#

Like brh last boss or WM thorns boss

keen spruce
#

last boss brh is semi predictable

#

it's on a timer at least

dark token
#

It's not that predictable, I watch his projectiles yes

#

But it's still aids

keen spruce
#

the timing is

#

like when a bolt is going to go out

dark token
#

Every 2s cast a random 1shot

#

How is this good design

keen spruce
#

it's not

#

but also that's just how infinitely scaling content works

shy pecan
keen spruce
#

we're doing the pooh thing again

#

i put a little duck bill on him tho

#

and a duck hat

shy pecan
runic hinge
midnight atlas
#

!wa

subtle tundra
keen spruce
#

yeah i agree

#

i think it's better if you the timer becomes the wall first

#

which makes you pull bigger and do more creative stuff

#

instead of "oh i better throw on the tank trinkets and pray"

LITEARLLY season1 again

or like

#

give ele shaman something OMEGAKEKW

Im pretty Sure you can revert all nerfs

#

And sub is still head to head

runic hinge
#

Ele sham too op on council

keen spruce
#

same as every tier

grim tangle
#

blizzard trying to atone for bfa

gusty mirage
#

But yeah pre nerf assassination without PI was kinda mid to begin with

#

Good balancing. Okay

quiet oar
#

Depends on how many bms and pis you have

#

Like we have 1 pi atm

gusty mirage
#

Pre nerf assassination smokes BM

quiet oar
gusty mirage
#

It’s not even debatable

keen spruce
#

post nerf BM better smoge

quiet oar
#

But Yeah

#

Like

#

It took them 4 years to nerf pi in wl and unholy

#

And for sin it took them 4 eeeks

gusty mirage
#

Took less, the last nerf was just uncalled for

#

Idk who thought it needed another nerf

spice spire
#

Me

gusty mirage
#

But I want whatever crack they’re smoking. It’d be a good time

keen spruce
#

same person that thinks they need the last nerf every patch

spice spire
#

It is

quiet oar
#

The same person who thought rets need a buff

quiet oar
#

And no more log reviews

Yeah and

#

I mean

gusty mirage
odd ingot
#

in weeks ago

keen spruce
#

but like

#

Ret ST was lacking a little bit

#

but they buffed their AoE

raven egret
#

ret didnt need THAT MUCH help 🤔

gusty mirage
#

Cause everything they do cleaves

odd ingot
#

what you mean ?

#

they decided to stop nerfing anything after sin's 2nd nerf

keen spruce
#

that's not how blizzzard balances

gusty mirage
#

Gotta do Volcross only as well

keen spruce
#

alledgedly

gusty mirage
#

Cause they fuck on add fights especially

keen spruce
#

okay heoric 50 volc

gusty mirage
#

Yeah I mean they’re strong in ST after the last round of buffs

#

Let them have it

keen spruce
#

i'm just sayin the buffs don't make that much sense

#

most are fine ig

#

#

i'm withdrawing my dooming

spice surge
raven egret
#

they missed nerfing sin again thought

dark token
#

Would actually be really funny if sin gets another nerf

lucid knoll

sin gonna be bottom 3, where we belong and thrive.

raven egret
#

imagine if we didnt get PI where we'd be on that chart XD

raven egret
#

nah it couldnt be lower tahn Survival hunter!!! Surely

keen spruce
#

well we're here and all of these got buffed

#

and many of us are still getting PI

#

they're a good pi target ye

#

idk if that's why

#

i know it was kinda slappin on tindral

dark token
#

That's demo

#

Aff?

keen spruce
#

aff yes

royal lantern
dark token
#

So assa rogue gets one

dark token
#

I play sub other guy plays assa

royal lantern
#

allright, thats different problems then kekdog

dark token
#

It's not like assa is a bad pi target now

#

It's still above most specs, just BM is very slightly better

keen spruce
#

uhdk and bm

#

assas still gonna be a good target in a lot of raid groups

#

depending on their comps

raven egret
#

I mean the issue is that without PI it feels kinda... well... yeah

#

progging Smoldy right now, and if I go Sub PI could go to the BM, which I dont really want to do mind you

balmy condor
#

tis how it be sadly

keen spruce
#

I played assas on every boss except kurog since season 1

#

just cuz we got nerfed doesn't mean i'm gonna stop now

#

and i'm still gettin a pi

gusty mirage
#

then your RL is an actual potato

keen spruce
#

we have 3 priests

#

1uhdk

I'm going back to my original guess

"LETS GIGA BUFF THEIR AOE"

but you can put bleeds on multiple targets, isnt that like aoe?

This explains a lot because outside of rh no one talks about sub rogue so it never got data to implement balancing

gusty mirage
#

that's what I'm saying

#

and if it scraped RH

spice spire
#

Assassination best and the world talks about it

gusty mirage
#

it'd see hacha talking about rotten or some other cursed shit

spice spire
#

Sub best? Community sleep

gusty mirage
#

and just throw it away

past forum
#

okay but the cursed hacha builds were the only time i enjoyed sub when i rerolled rogue so my raid group had one

the 25 step opener for the rotten dust every active build

im new to rogue. any tips on not draining energy in m+? i always feel like im at 0 energy

#

Apply more bleeds

#

On bosses/single target though where you can't do that though, you just got to live with it.

#

Part of how our spec is designed/balanced is energy drought outside of CDs

Read About Pooling
Video
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

#

Why does VAST majority play with improved ambush over tight spender, even though it sims worse?

#

In raids*

drifting cloud
#

theres no good reason, people just dont know it sims better

wild birch
#

There's no way top 100 rogues on their spec don't know that

waxen oyster

but yeah its just a combination of gear and blindside nerfs

oh sweet summer child

Fuck this, I give up thinking about it

I never seen improved ambush better on a sim on both of my fully geared rogs

Even with PI it's worse

Are you hoping for improved ambush to be better or something?

wild birch

sus

wild birch
waxen oyster
#

alergic to change

balmy condor
#

they saved off their builds at the start of the season

#

and then never changed it when blindside got nerfed

#

it's really that simple

waxen oyster
#

did the build in guide change

balmy condor
#

yes

#

all the builds use tight spender

waxen oyster
#

idk im stuck in late boss prison

balmy condor
#

there was a pin saying we're moving to tight spender and everything

waxen oyster
#

as sub

balmy condor
#

people just refused to change

wild birch
#

Except the one in Fuu spreadsheet

balmy condor
#

out of pure laziness, or out of ignorance

waxen oyster
#

but yeah

balmy condor
#

respectfully if you're looking at a spreadsheet for builds you're already fucking lost lmao

waxen oyster
#

top 100 logs arent always just skill

balmy condor
#

top 100 logs are most often not skill actually

#

I would say the vast majority aren't related to skill

wild birch
#

Well aware of that, but it's like 95% to 5% overall, not just top 100.

waxen oyster
#

be on a boss with sub 100 logs of your spec

#

the you can be top 100

waxen oyster
waxen oyster
#

are very real factors

runic hinge
#

What’s the variance on the top 100 logs? Is it more than 500 dps

blazing jewel
#

I followed my big cheats build off of Whispyr.gg and cant get a blue parse!!!!!! bad guide!!!!!!

runic hinge
#

!whispyr

balmy condor
#

top 100 on nymue ranges from 253k to 188k

#

like

#

the top 100 is a spread of almost 70k dps

#

and we're arguing over a talent difference worth 300 dps

#

it's so pointless

waxen oyster
#

are those just 10.2.5 logs

balmy condor
#

yes

waxen oyster
#

i cant imagine how cursed nymue timers are for sin now

#

with more gear

blazing jewel
#

did that fight get changed?

#

why would the timers be different

waxen oyster
#

no but we got more gear

#

so boss die faster

balmy condor
#

some taiwan guy did 253k on a 4:53 timer

#

bro is cracked lmao

waxen oyster

nah its cursed at like

when boss dies 5s into last kb

waxen oyster
#

500k shadow rupture tick

blazing jewel
#

thats like 9 minutes into the fight

#

and its at .9

balmy condor
#

I looked at a log of mine cause I thought I played it well

#

and shit did actually 2k dps

waxen oyster
#

i hate brand so much as a trinket

balmy condor
#

and then the next boss it did 10k

waxen oyster
#

kinda refuse to play it on non long bosses

balmy condor
#

and I'm sitting there like

#

huh

#

weird

blazing jewel
#

we inted our smold reclear so we actually got all the intermissions

balmy condor
#

8k dps swing from a trinket, throw a bad wafting on top, miss a couple crits on KB

blazing jewel
#

winning got to blast it was disgusting

balmy condor
#

boom you're down 15k

#

for no fucking reason

#

silly spec

waxen oyster
#

sub isnt much better

#

i love proccing shadow rupture

during all my amps

balmy condor

yeah

pre rework sin was great because the variance wasnt that high

i think on tindral i pre much accepted

Nah

that if i got over 1m shadow rupture in my opener

I swear I remember that

spice spire

only got 1.99m on kill throughout whole fight

Pass the blunt

which of the 3 specs now has the least variance

it says t30 scana

oh im blind

he doesn't know what tier it is

I so thought rogue was lower on that chart

balmy condor

for all he knows, t30 is this patch

I AM WRONG

waxen oyster

is there one for this tier

balmy condor

don't worry

this tier

sin is more rng than outlaw

I mean

what a time to be alive

slate crown
balmy condor
#

assassination is higher on that list by alphabetical order

#

so

#

you can bust out the pixel ruler though

#

(they're equal)

#

4.1 = 4.1 = 4.1

waxen oyster
#

tbh outlaw rng now primarily is crackshot

#

and ig if you roll 6

slate crown
#

Dunno looks equal

balmy condor
#

the pixel ruler was a joke

#

bruh

slate crown
#

BUT I HAVE ONE

earnest remnant
balmy condor
#

4.1 is 4.1

#

why do you think it would be different lengths

runic hinge
#

Are you trying to make me do math

balmy condor
#

frost, assa, and outlaw, are all 4.1, so they're exactly the same length

#

it's just death knight starts with D

#

and D comes before R

#

and then A comes before O

Hello, does anyone have a spreadsheet on the dps gained by an evoker augmentation for each specialization?

#

sorry if my sentence is wrong, English is not my first language

blissful forge
vestal wren
#

but the evoker discord would be the first place to look at as tiramil mentioned

toxic night
#

genuinely curious at some point all 3 rogue specs were dominating at the top so why did they decide to nerf assa 2 times and ignore the two other specs for the rest of the patch ?

#

i mean assa is pretty decent right so its ok but these balance decisions are sometimes weird

quiet oar
#

Yeah im suprised Sub didnt get nerfed

grizzled night
#

Hey guys, one quick question, which fight style is better for simulating AoE fights? Patchwerk, Dungeon slice or Hectic and cleave?

keen spruce
#

what sort of AoE fight

#

generally

#

patchwerk for ST

#

Dungeon slice for M+

#

which gives you a roughly simulated dungeon environment

#

mix of AoE and ST

muted tapir
#

Does anyone know off the top of their head what ilvl nick of time starts to overtake 486 crafted

#

(Not at my pc to sim these late night thoughts)

balmy condor
#

483

#

In mainhand at least

#

In offhand it’s probably like

#

185

#

Cause offhand item level is a fake stat with no meaning

#

(Probably closer to like 465 but same shit)

muted tapir
#

Copy ty

balmy condor
#

Np

tulip stratus
#

whats offhand item lvl fake stat mean

balmy condor
#

It means offhand weapon item level isn’t great

#

Usually good stats and timestrike easily wins

#

Cause the only thing that scales from offhand damage is autos and 1/3rd of mutilates damage

tulip stratus
#

interesting i thought they were just two main hands basically but they arent?

balmy condor
#

Correct

#

The mainhand (left slot in your character sheet) is much more important than your offhand

tulip stratus
#

thanks I have a 463 offhand and simmed a 486 which was only a 0.7% upgrade which confused me but i get it now

#

is sin the least played rogue spec

#

I got a "99"% parse for my item lvl but the sample size is so small

subtle tundra
#

ilvl parse is not a good metric for any spec

tulip stratus
#

how come?

subtle tundra
#

big rant

balmy condor
#

You’re comparing against a small sample size

#

And item level is just an all around awful metric

#

I could equip like a 460 wrist, drop 6 item level

#

And then stop the entire bracket

#

Cause I have 489 trinkets and weapons

#

Versus a bunch of 470 equipped people

#

And they’d get fucking cooked

tulip stratus
#

thanks for the explanation, ive never really taken it seriously only for cope

balmy condor
#

Item level just a funny number on the screen but doesn’t mean jack shit

#

You’d assume generally like a 470 will do less than a 480

subtle tundra
balmy condor
#

But even then just get better rng on the 470 and they could probably win

subtle tundra
#

considering people are ~8-10 ilvl higher

tulip stratus
#

:) thanks

#

its all thanks to this helpful discord

that's on the Kingsbane Damage part of the WA

#

Thank you!

pearl mauve
#

Hey, trying out Assa, doing some WA etc, is there any single scenario where i'd use Shadow Dance and Kingsbane separatly ? Or can I just macro them both and ignore tracking SD cd ?

grim tree
#

I have macro

#

Sd with kingsbane

past forum
#

I have SD bound separately as well as macro’d into kb. I just assumed that if you were gonna use dance to cleave bleeds you’d wanna kb later in the dance to make sure your envenom uptime during kb was high, but in that case do you still just wanna send kb first global anyway?

dark token
#

even if im ignoring the kb

#

for better alignment with deathmark

#

its usually a mistake to not use cooldowns on cd in keys

past forum
#

Yeah that’s pretty reasonable

#

I’ll keep it a buck, while I’ve always trusted when people say “just use cds on cd” it felt turbo bad to send a dm in a lower key just to have a dh eye beam the pack into non-existence. Now that I’m doing reasonably higher keys it feels more rewarding just sending.

dark token
#

what key level are you doing

#

play ap shock build below 25 in all keys, and play around ur bleeds more than kb if stuff wont live full duration

#

it helps a lot

dark token
#

it wont live so no point

#

you just send ur 1 mins in this case

#

and save deathmark for something big

#

or when other dps dont have cds

subtle gyro
#

Its safe to macro Branch with DM... I would assume so?

spice spire
#

Yes

subtle gyro
#

I have a decent WA for it, but is there one that makes the orbs more noticeable or something. Guild said...oh they come to you, and I know this...but i thought the point was to collect 2 and wait on the 3rd to extend the buff.

dark token
#

lisonna has a good branch WA

#

it plays tick sounds when you pick up an orb

#

and a water drop when its time to pick up 3rd orb

#

helps a lot

subtle gyro
#

i think i may actually have that exact one

dark token
#

there isnt really a better Wa

subtle gyro
#

nvm...i have one called Luckystrike...er made by. shrug

subtle gyro
#

So...you can a cheat death from mech using the dagger....so while using that dagger and spec for cheat death, do you can 2 then or could I switch? I hear Elusi is really good.

spice surge
#

Its not a cheat death

Its heal for 10% of your health once you drop below 20%
