May I ask a question about pi on smolderon mythic there is a debate about to whom to give the pi (assa rogue,unholy,BM) and was wondering if there is a definite answer.

I saw assa was pretty dominant earlier in 10.2; coming back to the game now. Sub seems the way to go now from logs. Accurate or no? How does assa feel in m+/raid?

gaunt sigil
#

Assa is ok in raid and mid at best in M+

#

Revert 3% nerf blizz suvidrAngry

timber kelp
#

so not great in either?

gaunt sigil
#

I’d say it’s worth playing in raid if you like it. But if you’re looking purely for throughput, Sub and Outlaw both outperform it in all scenarios

timber kelp
#

Thanks for the tip

#

I played a mix of assa and sub in 10.1, and sub always just seemed/felt better

gaunt sigil
#

I only really like Assa so I play Assa always. I flex outlaw for higher keys though

#

My brain just doesn’t function when I go sub so I don’t play it at all.

#

I have a huge lack of understanding of sub.

Hello all. Coming back from a longer break (6 years) and was wondering anyone here know a place to get a good listing what addons are required for doing high end mythic content on retail WoW? 🙂 going for sin rogue

royal lantern
#

well

#

DbM or bigwigs, whatever one you like more

#

and weakauras

#

are the 2 absolutely essential ones

dark token
#

I would go bigwigs, most high end raiders stopped using dbm

#

It's more configurable and better updated

royal lantern
#

i swear if somone now shows up and starts with either DBM or bigwigs beeing better i will kill them

Thanks guy. I really regret I quit years ago but now descided to come back after thinking about it some years. Its just bit frightening again specialy with the add-ons, this helped me a bit.Thanks. 🙂

can we reset bosses as assa ? Used to do it as mage (fireball > invi during travel time), tried with Poisoned Knife > Instant vanish but didn't work

Another day spent in front of dummy switching between sin and sub to try and find out which one I like more

#

@pearl mauve why would you waste your vanish ?

dapper moat

# dapper moat never tried sub myself. Which you think have easier rotation?

I think you can do some big brained stuff with assa and dot management is always hard to most people. Even in ST you cant forget to reapply the dots.
Sub has a lot going on in burst windows, but at the end of the day its mostly using gloomblade into eviscerate with hadow technique and rupture sprinkled in.
So assassin maybe harder on planning level and sub on quick decision making?
Just my opinion

#

oh and assa has snapshotting so higher skill ceilling

dapper moat
#

yeah remember being sometimes stressed out when doing harder content as assa. Hmm might actually now try sub instead for the first time

raw moon
#

I actually like the extra challenge. Especially in AoE tracking the dots. Feels rewarding when you do stuff right

#

might go with assa now that I talked about it lol

@raw moon do you have any bleed dot add-ons to track them?

i mean no real clean pulls

but like 3-5 people dead

ye, reaching p2 is not THAT hard

#

the hard part is reaching p2 with 20people

and maybe no CR used

I was only counting "p2" pulls as ones that we broke the shield lol

cuz sure you can get to the platform with 4 people

random p1 beam deaths will haunt you forever on this boss, dont worry man

or tanks fucking up the mushrooms

yeah we have very good tanks

but suspicious amounts of mushroom deaths

today

#

normally we just forget about our tanks and they never makes mistakes

#

or very few

royal lantern

tbf, the timing is very tight

#

+movment is happening

keen spruce
#

yeah especially for the diagonal ones

royal lantern
#

i was an expert of getting pushed into beams when the winds at the end of p1 came

keen spruce
#

i think

#

this will just be a lot of stupid p1 deaths

#

and p2 prog won't take too long

#

the 12 seeds and no doubles

#

makes it very ez

#

just getting clean p2 reps

will be the time sink

p3 looks very scary

keen spruce

yeah p3 still pretty nasty

and getting enough damage on the boss going into p3

funny enough, if you get past p2, p3 is not such a big problem anymore

think the rumor comes from the season name

if the raid is re-visited, it could be that dungeons are too

steel ridge

so in my book its absolutely going to happen

#

why wouldnt you send off the expansion with the actual dungeons for the expansion 😄

It was the same in SL, wasn't it?

static atlas
#

Only doing +20s right now, but sometimes the tank pulls the next pack before we finish the current one so no chance to go back into stealth, I'm a NE and was curious how much of a difference does shadowmeld make damage wise being able to go back into stealth mid pull?

royal lantern
#

none

static atlas
#

even with Indiscriminate Carnage?

royal lantern
#

yes

#

never made a difference

#

cus stealth doesnt matter

static atlas
#

I see I would have expected stealth was more important since you can use multiple garrote and it applies to multiple enemies

royal lantern
#

now check how much dmg garrote does over an entire dungeon

spice surge
#

Its more like this, getting restealth for you might increase your personal overall slightly but its not gonna make the key faster because the time you lost by not chaining the packs together is greater than the gain from your damage

royal lantern
#

and the gain is just not really there aswell

spice surge
#

Whispyr (one of the assa theorycrafters) made a video about it if you want the absolute full details

royal lantern
#

like, you dont go from 0 dmg to giga dmg cus of stealth

spice surge
#

!restealth

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

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

I'll take a look thank you

#

Anyone tried swapping lightweight shiv for doomblade?

#

Consdering all the bleed dmg increase you get at bottom of the tree, wouldnt it do more dmg than having 2 charges of shiv?

pseudo hamlet
#

Not sure about that. The KB damage is really high and having +30% dmg for the full duration of it may be better than another bleed. 🤔

#

Nah, it's like >20k DPS less according to raidbot FeelsWeird

royal lantern
misty holly
#

Yeah but the first ticks of kingsbane do a lot less than the last ticks. So second shiv has like double or triple the value of first shiv

#

I wonder if raid bots adjusts play to work with only 1 shiv.

#

If it uses the regular rotation of shiv then pop kingsbane that is wrong with only 1 charge

royal lantern
#

ofc it will

#

like

#

never think you are the first guy that thought about that

#

and also in his example there

#

doomblade just doesnt really do anything

#

a bit bonus dmg on mut that sometimes gives a stack of lethal dose

Isn't humanoid only 3% nature dr? Or is the tooltip wrong? Its supposed to change but everytime I tried humanoid it was the exact same tooltip

royal lantern
#

you know how hybrid dmg works right?

woeful meteor
#

AINTNOWAY cause it's shadowflame so fire+shadow it doesnt reduce Deadge

royal lantern
#

if you take reduced dmg from 1 half of it, it just means you take full dmg from the other half instead

#

yes

#

aka

#

you reduce shadow dmg by 6%?

#

cool, so the full dmg is just fire against you now

#

aka it doesnt change how much dmg you take

balmy condor
#

Well it should be reducing half of it for 3%

#

That’s the intended result

royal lantern
#

winning once again

balmy condor
#

But behind the scenes, hybrid elements are just 3 bowls of spaghetti in a trench coat

So

Oh

balmy condor

Does it buff it:

  • half
  • fully
gaunt sigil
#

My guess would be half

#

But I doubt that’s right knowing blizz starege

balmy condor
#

Ah see, that’s where they getcha

#

Cause when you’re dealing the damage, it should be half, but it’s full

#

And when you’re taking the damage it should be half, but it’s nothing

assa quite literally has a higher key timed than outlaw though

its a shame cause assa is legit so broken in keys

under 200 for fyrakk 😎

#

thursday was a wonderful night

subtle tundra
#

we absolutely GAMED p3

#

the prog on that was insane

gusty mirage
#

took us 200 pulls to even see p3

#

I'm taking a break after this boss dies

#

no shot I'm jumping right in to reclear after we kill

sweet dawn
#

!track

subtle tundra
#

our p3 pulls were 27% -35% -19 -29 -21 -33 -17- 26 -15 -16 -45 -28 -18 -1.3 - 0.8 - kill

gusty mirage
subtle tundra
#

shouldnt even count as p3 smh

#

also that 1,3%

#

was extremely deep into p3

#

like so deep

#

would've been a kill if we had ok dps

gusty mirage

#

i love pilav

stop damage NaniThonk

#

for CDs? Despairge

subtle tundra
#

dont forget, STOP DAMAGE is the only reason assa was good on fyrakk

#

cause if p1 dmg mattered, sub would be strictly superior

gusty mirage
#

p1 damage is so worthless

#

lmao

subtle tundra
#

exactly

#

so zoldyck is active 50% of the important fight time

idk if assa is still the play after the last nerf ngl

Ok so is tight spender really the play? I seem to do more damage with imp amb but sim higher with TS

subtle tundra
#

you do NOT notice 1k dps difference bud

gaunt sigil
#

Like energy isn’t an issue, my sims got me at like 28% haste, assuming mostly due to signet brand

clever sapphire
#

so you are telling me you are noticing haste monkahmm

gaunt sigil
#

Well my energy rarely drops below 140

#

Improved ambush has felt better for me keeping Envenom chains through refreshing Rupture

#

Maybe I’m just bad though ngl

#

Skill issue at that point

clever sapphire
#

i mean i have no idea how your energy rarely drops below 140

gaunt sigil
#

It just doesn’t, idk what to tell you. That’s what 28% haste does to a fucker?

balmy condor
#

damn

#

the triple whammy

gaunt sigil
#

Aug + wft doesn’t boost energy gen that much does it?

balmy condor
#

wft through dashing

#

but it's minor

#

but like do whatever you want

#

haste doesn't fucking matter

gaunt sigil
#

Yeah, sims got me running double haste runes n shizz so

balmy condor
#

tight spender is better

#

90% of people still don't play it

#

cause they're idiots

#

it is what it is

#

400 dps difference will never be noticeable

gaunt sigil
#

I’ll have to experiment with it more, it just has felt worse to play in my experience

balmy condor
#

shouldn't really feel like anything

#

the only thing that should change is your ambush generates 1 less cp

gaunt sigil
#

I’m not saying I’m right, but I just like the more CP from amb

balmy condor
#

yeah I mean that's something you'll notice

#

you'll never notice tight spender

gaunt sigil
#

For sure

#

I mean what it’s only 10% less on spenders?

balmy condor
#

ye

gaunt sigil
#

Does it just attribute to more sang uptime and that’s why its better and sims higher?

balmy condor
#

sure

#

it's not really that deep, the energy it saves is worth more than the couple cp ambush would give in a fight

gaunt sigil
#

I see, I will have to try it more honestly, I just denied it cause I liked the cp more.

#

It makes sense

I know it sims better zerotwoheartlove

#

Could someone explain to me why the ambersoul trinket is used much more often than the branch? Is the main reason for this is ease of use? What do you prefer and why?

gaunt sigil
#

Mostly just movement heavy fights and ease of use

#

I only ever use Tea during CDs regardless of if I am running out of energy outside of CDs

balmy condor
#

so you just don't use 2 charges?

gaunt sigil
#

I use 2 Every DM window and 1 on every other normal KB window. I make sure to end fights with none left

balmy condor
#

ah

#

so you're trolling

nimble zinc
#

Question: my current 2 trinkets are Ashes and Mirror. I typically pop one of them on pull before I start my rotation from stealth. Then the other one when it’s available.

Is there a better time to pop these trinkets? Like right before DM/KB? Or during the last 6 sec of KB?

gaunt sigil
#

Am I? cursed_flushed

balmy condor
#

well you're making a conscious decision to play incorrectly

#

so idk

#

sounds like trolling to me

gaunt sigil
#

I’m usually not wasting energy with them if thats what you mean, is it just bad use scenarios

#

I thought it was kinda big to use them in CDs for the mastery if you can help it

#

I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time!? TR3_cry

Is the mastery just that minuscule?

nimble zinc
#

Yeah I want sandglass

balmy condor
#

the mastery isn't really small, it's just the energy is really good

nimble zinc
#

Would I benefit from a giga haste or mastery buff like during my KB window?

arctic socket
gaunt sigil
#

I’ll have to double check my self but I don’t really know of a time that I so desperately needed energy outside of windows. Cause in windows I am just dumping out Envenoms as opposed to chaining

storm forum
balmy condor
nimble zinc
gaunt sigil
#

I haven’t really been running out though, I’ll have to double check my logs by I’m usually pretty good on energy

balmy condor
#

would be the first assassination rogue to do that

gaunt sigil
#

I always have WFT, Aug and I have high haste if that makes that big of a difference

#

But I doubt it does

balmy condor
#

unless high haste means like 115%

gaunt sigil
#

So I’m starting to question my sanity

storm forum
#

Do you have 120% haste? Cause I think you need over 100% haste to not run out of energy

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

it's 112%

gaunt sigil
#

Nah just around 30% usually since I got signet brand haste sims much much better

#

30% buffed not base

balmy condor
#

yeah that's not gonna do it

arctic socket
#

Signet brand is a sim bait if you have fast kills

storm forum
#

Do you have tea macro'd into something?

nimble zinc
#

I think I’m only around 22-24% haste ATM. would having at least 30% prevent me from running out of energy quickly during envenom chains?

balmy condor
#

it's only simbait if you're stupid enough to sim 5 minutes and then ignore the fact that you're killing it in 2

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.

im struggling mid fight at the moment, burst i can compete with other but my damage falls off in the middle a bit more than normal trying out different things to change that 😅

bright cipher
# balmy condor Elemental damage could be such a cool concept this expansion

I also think its a bit of a shame that damage types/spell schools are kind of a forgotten element of the game.

There is a lot of mechanics on it like Damage mitigation and damage amplification, but even effects who are like "+X% damage to Fire" many times end up just being a whitelist with preselected spells that its allowed to affect or not.

balmy condor
#

yeh

arctic socket
bright cipher
#

True chaos damage for exemple, is a spell who is capable of ignore most forms of mitigation because the damage calculation always use the lowest resistance to mitigate the damage ( so if you are immune to physical yo uget damage as magical attack, if you are immune to magic it gets taken as physical damage)

arctic socket
#

Best thing to help your damage over the course of the fight is having good energy / chain management

bright cipher
#

its also why, almost no spell is true chaos damage anymore =x

hollow mango
#

yeah i know, its just that other rogues with less gear sometimes can hold more damage, im probably screwing up energy and rotation

bright cipher
#

chaos bolt nowdays is actually prismatic (all magic schools except holy)

royal lantern
#

can we agree that dmg types just dont matter 90% of the time?

bright cipher
#

but at the same time, i also not sure if we should go back to something like classic-cata era where you had resistances and in some fights you had to use specific gears to meet some amount of elemental resistance to X to survive the fight

royal lantern
#

ofc they wont go back

#

cus it was bad

#

lol

#

thats a really dumb asumption

gusty mirage
#

I mean it's not inherently good or bad

runic hinge

Yeah, bring back resist pots instead of flasks

royal lantern

it was bad enough that they remove it druing the "good old wotlk time" allright

runic hinge

They should delete parry since they deleted expertise

I don't remember what was the boss who did a cool thing where he summoned some elementals and they were immune to damage outside of specific elements

and you had to kill them before they reached the boss

shred was still positional

as was backstab

it was bad times

First boss in BFD right now is an elemental, so you take off poison runes and flip to using daggers instead of bleeds from saber slash, and ignore envenom

bright cipher

#

yah

#

I thought that in MC too

#

Like you had to play frost

gusty mirage
#

tbf that was actually useful back in the day

#

the immune to bleed thing

cause of the debuff limits

bright cipher
#

but yeah, going to that point is bad

#

but i swear, i don't remember what was the boss but i know it was in legion

runic hinge

and that basically you separated the raid in positions according to their damage types to kill the enemies

not really

#

thats bullshit

cus you realise how dmg is spread in classes now?

lol

#

there is almost none "Pure phsyiscal" or "pure magical" class

like, how is assa supposed to work

#

when bleeds are physical

#

and poisons are magical

#

and thats for almost all classes in this game

stop with this weird "make dmg types matter" nonsese mate

they stopped it during frking classic cus it was stupid

if you have an attack who deals physical+shadow for exemple

i know that

its get taken like physical

storm forum
#

It was fine on Argus cause the timer to kill stuff was pretty generous and the adds were a minor part of the fight. But yeah, a whole boss with that would be sus.

royal lantern
#

like

#

on mythic where stuff matters? didnt exist

bright cipher
#

but i agree that in case of classes who deal like physical and magical separated it would be a problem

#

one who i didn't consider

royal lantern
#

the problem is that only 3 or 4 SPECS do only physical dmg type

#

fury/arms/outlaw/mm

#

everyone else does mixed dmg

#

to various degrees

#

its why the DH debuff is such a giant raid dps gain

storm forum
#

Like we're constantly talking about how raid spots are too restrictive. Adding a boss that further restricts spots based on damage type would be pretty silly.

royal lantern
#

almost all classes gain something from it

why is wft not raid wide

its so weird that its not that way

And we always talk about how unintuitive and difficult to understand some boss mechanics are. So if there was some under the hood shit that gave certain specs damage Amp to phys or magical parts of their kit for that fight, it would also be really silly.
