coped too much in sl, no more copium nowadays

spice spire
#

Real

keen spruce
#

blizz don't give af about m+ OMEGAKEKW

#

although now that HoF is closed and MDI starting

#

they probably buff fire mage next week

subtle tundra
#

the only m+ buff for assa i remember was fok 30% dmg increase

#

and fok was...2-3% overall...

sour rose
#

does the ambush from blindside apply spatter?

fleet pagoda
uneven bronze
#

Does everyone have to remove their thorns on tindral at the same time to spawn the treants or is it done in batches?

rotund oak
#

what acceerated opener do u boys use on laro?garote=>snd into DM=>shiv=>kb=>garrote=>rupture?

quiet oar
#

Where we used freedoms and Cloak and stuff

uneven bronze
quiet oar
#

Ye

uneven bronze
#

damn it hurts like freakin hell

quiet oar
#

Can skill Blackjack

#

and Aoe blind

#

to reduce their dmg

#

But that dmg shouldnt be a problem

uneven bronze
#

yeah we're still early in prog, so its probably that until we get it right. One of the hardest parts in the fight or nah?

plain moon
#

Like I think there’s parts later that are objectively harder but by the time you get there everybody knows how to do beams and roots by then so you won’t wipe to it too much

rotund oak

!opener

gaunt sigil
#

The only fights I do accelerated opener on personally are nymue and Tswift

keen spruce
#

you don't need accelerated for nymue

#

cuz you're holding your KB for add anyways

#

Larodar you do gar-rup-bush-snd-DM

#

same with swifty

plain moon
#

^what shmeeps said

#

although idk how i feel about calling it "bush"

gaunt sigil
#

I never KBd add lol

#

I always use accelerated opener and send CDs again before add

#

You have enough time for it to tick fully

#

Maybe I am supposed to but I never did

#

We never had add issues so I assumed it was fine

plain moon
#

I think add spawns at 1:17 specifically

#

so i guess you CAN do that, but seems weird

#

but you would have to do some sort of giga accelerated opener

#

skip rup and ambush in the opener i guess if u wanted to do that

gaunt sigil
#

Idk if I will do accelerated on reclear after fyrakk, I just know I was doing it for prog

#

I honestly don’t remember exact reasoning

#

On why I did it

plain moon
#

its not like holding KB for add feels good anyways, i'd bet most are like that just doing whatever were used to on it

#

at least in my guild kill times change up on that boss so much that it would also be hard to be sure you'll get an extra cast or not if ur not holding

rain mortar
#

does aoe blind still work on tindral adds?

gaunt sigil
#

Unless something changed recently, yes

balmy condor
#

yah

#

aoe blind/blackjack on the trees

#

doesn't work on roots

balmy condor
gaunt sigil
#

I did ok still tho TR3_pout

#

Ok nvm

#

It was only an 86

blazing jewel
#

The clip of blazon flying into all the tindral orbs at full speed was one of the best clips this tier

#

His monitor lit up his face orange

gaunt sigil
#

I shoulda clipped when I flew into not one but two beams starting first intermission

shy pecan

#

Secret

#

( idk )

plain moon
#

Fair lol

#

Is the SS of him offering ppl money to stay in his guild real?

balmy condor
#

Yes

plain moon
#

That’s crazy

#

Shows he cares a lot at least

spice spire
#

Real

shy pecan
runic hinge
#

Is this dude a bad person or something? Idk the lore

balmy condor
dark token
#

Most of his audience watches to make fun of him

balmy condor
#

And he streams the whole thing but plays like shit and his heart rate monitor never drops below like 125

#

So it’s pretty funny

runic hinge
#

My heart rate only ever goes up when we’re close to the last boss kill. Maybe he should get his health checked

spice spire
#

Someone has the sticker

#

Who was it

woeful meteor
#

oxi, guy or skip

#

if not all 3

spice spire
#

I wanna say remy actually

#

But ur probably right

woeful meteor
#

his health improved tho didnt even hit 170 in Tindral

spice spire
#

Respect that

#

Unironically

plain moon
#

Late CE level got to be the craziest raid bracket. You got some people who are way overly invested and make it their whole life, meanwhile some in this bracket cba to even read class/boss guides

woeful meteor
# balmy condor

just rewatched some clips kinda forgot this wasn't even the kill xdd

shy pecan
#

I think it was the AMA about raid leading he tried to do that got to me

feral mason
thorn fjord
#

lol why tho it’s funny

rotund oak
blazing jewel
#

what

rotund oak
#

nothing baby

#

😅

runic hinge
woeful meteor
#

But that's how you raid lead Shrug

@blazing jewel nend sudes

!guide

uneven summit
#

anyone using a WA for kingsbane timings/performance?

#

that they can recommend

rotund oak
#

the first on wago

slate crown
thin portal
#

which one is the icon timers

balmy condor
#

would be LE's

thin portal
#

k

#

ooo

#

LE pack is pretty cool

royal lantern
runic hinge
#

Reported for self promotion

uneven summit
rotund oak
#

the accelerated opener is gar=>rupt=>ambush=>snd=>DM etc right?

royal lantern
#

yes

cedar yew
#

Do any of you pro sinners macro stuff together?

midnight atlas
#

dance + kingsbane

#

with dance before kingsbane in the macro

cedar yew
#

Yea I have that one already. Can you put deathmark in there aswell? Or is that a terrible idea/not possible?

quiet oar
#

Is deathmark offgcd

#

But i dont think its a good idea

#

Have a sepereate binding for it

oak tangle
#

I have vanish and garrotte bound, and before people get Madge at it, if you don’t wanna garrotte make sure you vanish inside a gcd

limber lion
limber lion
#

You have a separate bind for Garrote anyways, right?

balmy condor
#

dance+kingsbane is perfectly fine

#

but

#

vanish gar?

#

that's wild

raven flower
#

hidden tech

#

hidden for a reason

quiet oar
#

That sounds so cursed

#

ngl

cedar yew
#

Dammit

#

I want a 1 button rotation

limber lion
#

Just sounds completely unnecessary

balmy condor
#

why are you playing wow

#

it's not even like

#

wrong spec

#

or wrong class

#

it's just entirely the wrong game

cedar yew
#

For the friendships

balmy condor
cedar yew
#

The true endgame reward

#

Isn't that why we all play?

balmy condor
#

..n...no?

raven flower
#

thought I was in the wrong discord for a second

limber lion
balmy condor
#

most people play for the raid/m+ content cause it's challenging and the combat is engaging

#

but I guess I've now met someone who plays for the opposite of that

#

goes to show you how different humans are idk

cedar yew
#

Nah I'm just lazy 😂

balmy condor
cedar yew
#

If I can macro stuff in I will. Saves me energy, being a dad

midnight atlas
#

Classic era mage raiding is for you

#

You already picked the most chill rogue spec so if you want to pool energy irl i dont have a better answer

balmy condor
#

I mean in theory you could macro everything into one cast sequence that just goes mut shiv garrote rupture mut ambush envenom deathmark kingsbane

#

and then make a keyboard macro on a numpad key or something

#

that then spams that key every second

#

and you just toggle it on

#

and then right click

#

you CAN do that

#

the question is are you okay with only doing 10% of your damage

midnight atlas
#

Until boss moves out of melee range for 2 ms and your macro is gone

balmy condor
raven flower
#

isn't there an option that keeps pressing an ability as long as you hold the key button down? just plop some weight on there and enjoy your dad beer (tm)

balmy condor
#

I don't think so

#

there's trigger on key press or key release

#

but not on key hold

midnight atlas
#

Or raise your kid to do your rotation for you

raven flower
#

or am I wrong

balmy condor
#

oh wow

#

that must be new

midnight atlas
#

Thats for casters

balmy condor
#

I mean yeah

#

but that'll work

misty holly
royal lantern
#

since evoker came out with their charge spells

midnight atlas
#

Last time i tested press and hold casting didnt work for rogue abilities

balmy condor
#

idk what to do with this information

#

but thank you

misty holly
#

Me and Holy are kindred spirits.

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

then play everquest

#

we're not talking about everquest

#

what

#

my whole point was that if that's the gameplay you want, you should play a different game

#

and then I get hit with the "a different game has gameplay like that"

#

yeah no shit

royal lantern
balmy condor
midnight atlas
#

And its not like rotations are hard to do in this game, you just need to understand how a spec deals its dmg and have comfortable binds. Then you can do any rotation for hours

rotund oak
#

it does yes d3 has that

#

can confirm

oak tangle
balmy condor
oak tangle
#

Yup, I learnt to play in BFA so it’s all I knew

balmy condor
#

makes sense

drifting cloud
#

wonder what xpac will I learn to play in PogO

clever sapphire
#

and mains a ranged like frost mage

quiet oar
#

Press 1 button until you cant

#

then press the 2nd button

#

till you can press button 1

#

(thats how an aug described it to me)

arctic socket
#

Sure he wasn’t bm?

clever sapphire
#

maybe a ret pala

spice spire
quiet oar
#

Kill command, Barbed shot and cobra shot

quiet oar
# spice spire Real

And send you Breath of Eons at any time, except when CDs are running on your DPS

#

I saw some Augs pressing Breath right after KB expired

spice spire
#

They’re real for that

oak tangle
spice surge
#

Aug in keys is payphone
Aug in raids is plugging in your logs into the augvoker website to get an mrt note on who to buff and then mald at the fact that your ranged is 40 yards from the boss so you cant really buff ranged and melee at the same time because of your tiny range fucking it all up

quiet oar
#

I love the halondurs meme with that

#

Because it was fucking real

spice spire
#

Same with echoes of nelth

#

As melee

quiet oar
#

True

#

Except you are lucky as me

spice surge
#

During fyrakk one of our augs said "please kill this boss so i can delete this cursed fucking character"

quiet oar
#

And get almost every big explosion

spice surge
#

Then once we killed it the entire guild spammed his mailbox with bananas

#

So he couldnt delete kekman

spice spire
#

Yeah but you just go to the exact same spot every time

#

0 thoughts head empty

quiet oar
#

But i really like the tindral melee mechanics

#

The flying is a cool idea

quiet oar
#

Like so much negativity, or its the bubble im in

spice surge
#

ye the flying on tindral is actually surprisingly cool

quiet oar
#

But even Aug players dont want to play aug

spice surge
#

Cant believe they managed to make the gimmick dragonflying boss one of the best bosses

quiet oar
#

Ye

#

Most of the times gimmicks are a bit

#

meh

spice surge
#

Very out of character for blizz, but well take it

quiet oar
#

Like fatescribe

#

was meh

#

Kealthas in Nathria

oak tangle
#

I mean was Taragrue not liked? That was kinda expansion gimmick

quiet oar
#

Tarragrue despairge

spice spire
#

Spent more time rerolling powers than killing boss

quiet oar
#

Yes

#

I loved Elisande

#

Was also Gimmick fight

#

But cool gimmick

rotund oak
#

Carapace of Nzoth

#

me liked

#

alot

spice surge
#

Aint no way

rotund oak
#

why 😦

#

i liked that u slapped the thing,then went to the other room and then slapped it again

spice surge
#

Guess im biased because i played bm hunter

quiet oar
#

Is that the Football thingy

spice surge
#

And its like the worst fight ive ever done

rotund oak
#

no,carapace was before nzoth

#

football was azshara torture

quiet oar
spice spire
spice surge
#

Ye but that was mostly aoe pad

quiet oar
#

What was the goblin

#

Blackfuse?

rotund oak
#

yup

spice surge
#

Carapace consisted of me needing to keybind all of my pet movement stuff

quiet oar
#

WHere someone had to run the treadmill

rotund oak
#

yeah

quiet oar
#

and kill a weapon

rotund oak
#

and the pipes

quiet oar
#

that was cool too

rotund oak
#

for the bombs

#

i liked carapace more

spice surge
#

Blackfuse is a banger boss

quiet oar
#

Star augur

#

In Nighthold

spice spire
#

The best fight was actually lei shen in current content

quiet oar
#

Star Augur was so nice

spice surge
#

Imagine if backhand p2 wasnt mid

quiet oar
#

Ok

#

BRF

spice surge
#

P1 and p3 backhand is crisp

quiet oar
#

Had so many cool fights

#

ngl

#

Like that is prob one of the unqiue fights

#

raids*

spice surge
#

P1 of sark this expansion is probably among my favourites too ngl

#

A shame the rest of the fight wasnt as good

quiet oar
#

Ye P1 was really intense

#

P2 was payphone

#

and P3 was just hit boss

royal lantern
#

i really really liked painsmith tbh

rotund oak
#

i also liked the deaf dragon

#

in cata

#

how was she called

#

sinessa or something

#

it was like 1st boss on CN but harder

quiet oar
#

@spice spire But you call me a boomer

spice spire
#

You are

#

I knew sap was a boomer

quiet oar
#

If im a boomer+

#

You are ancient

spice spire
#

Stay mad

quiet oar
#

Im 26

#

Still zoomin

#

(With knee and back pain)

spice spire
#

Already migrated to sin from outlaw

#

Checkmate pal

quiet oar
#

So Knee and Back pain

#

is a sin trait

spice spire
#

Ye

viscid flare
#

Damn im fitting right in then

spice spire
#

Amen

quiet oar
#

But

#

It got better

#

Or is wearing a knee compression cheating

#

and this still makes you a sin

spice spire
#

Correct

raven flower
#

smh can't even walk pain free without addons

quiet oar
#

Damn Retail livers

#

cant live without weakauras ICANT

royal lantern
#

i dont have that

subtle kiln
#

so your nervous system is fucked, even worse

#

one step closer to Assa > BM hunter

royal lantern
#

nah, im just Insomniac

rotund oak
#

but hunter discord says bm hunter is hard

lament shoal
#

Hello guys, im a new player and i need some help with my PVP gear.. is there any site/ guide/ for stats or items i should buy with my Honor?

thorn fjord
royal lantern
#

its wow

#

they all are made to be intuitive to play and somewhat more complicated to minmax

quiet oar
#

wdym

#

Rogue hardest class

#

by far

royal lantern
#

and litearlly every single "what spec is hard/easy????" turns into "thing I play is hard, the others are easy"

#

cus people need to stroke their ego or smth like that

quiet oar
#

I mean

#

I dont know about Rogue being intuitive

royal lantern
#

why not, on a base level they are

#

assa: put bleeds up and then dump cp into envenom

#

sub: do dmg during shadowdance by using bigger hits

#

outlaw: press glowly buttons

quiet oar
#

Yeah ok base level

#

While there are no glowy buttons

#

If Bte would glow in stealth

#

would probably be very intuitive

royal lantern
quiet oar
#

I mean yeah on a base level is everything easy

uneven summit
#

!wa

thorn fjord
#

QQ is raid bots crazy or is there an actual difference between the two crafted rings?

#

One is showing .4% upgrade and the other .2% same stats

clever sapphire
#

sim it again

thorn fjord
#

Yeah just did and now they’re both .2

#

Weird

clever sapphire
#

difference probably so smol that each sim gonna give another result

thorn fjord
#

Flavor pocket inc tho

Just going to upgrade that

#

If I go double on-use (WItherbark, Ashes) how blursed am I?

spice spire
#

Very cursed

green apex
#

I've got a M pips that I could use over the H ashes anyway, just wondering if the Sims just blast the Ashes on CD or if it would line up w/ my 2nd KB

woeful meteor
green apex
#

Thanks all.

grim tree
#

Id viable play assa in raid or sub is better?

thorn fjord
#

It’s more than viable

grim tree
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
thorn fjord
#

Follow your dreams

vestal wren
#

outlaw is overall the most played spec in raiding and m+

#

subtlety is the most played in mythic raiding

grim tree
#

I'm going to start clearing mythical but I want to play more so that sub will I get fewer numbers than others?

bright turret
#

if you are just starting mythic it really isn't going to matter what you play

thorn fjord
#

Also boils down to your proficiency with the spec

bright turret
#

sub is bis, but sin/outlaw are still strong

thorn fjord
#

If you can play sin better play it… you won’t be sandbagging

#

Sin has execute fwiw

#

🤷‍♂️

keen spruce
#

did yall watch the most recent poddy c

#

they were talking about abilities feeling good to press and how it kind of started in BFA when blizz tried putting big button on GCD to make them more impactful

#

and max said

#

"yeah like vendetta they put on GCD and it felt bad but they turned it into deathmark, this upfront hitting ability"

vestal wren
#

lol

#

i only got one clip linked from it

#

when they discussed mdi

#

it seems most clipping or doing bosses out of order will be banned

thorn fjord
#

Clipping I get but boss order?

vestal wren
#

you could clip bosses on each other too

runic hinge
brazen zodiac
#

sorry what does clipping mean fuu?

vestal wren
#

so i kinda get it

#

if you e.g. jump on a table

#

and the mobs don't find a way to reach you

#

and the game teleports them to you

brazen zodiac
#

oh i see.

#

ty. cx

vestal wren
#

i think thats a easy example to explain it

brazen zodiac
#

yeye

thorn fjord
#

Shadowland dungeons had some crazy clipping

vestal wren
#

basically any technique to make a mob teleport to a specific position

#

i did like the discussion tho

#

because max did end up saying, they should allow every exploit/etc

#

tho i asusme there is a problem with this, it is very hard to keep competitive integrity

#

we had in the past events like the great push, where bug abuse did lead to advantages that did decide between win and lose

keen spruce
#

the mdi talks were good

#

just that comment made me lol

vestal wren
#

so my idea would be

#

just like

#

!bug

prisma monolithBOT
vestal wren
#

its just an example, maybe less technical

#

but just like we collect bugs on a central source on the tracker

#

maybe it would be beneficial to do the same for mythic+

#

so you had one central place to report and also look up stuff

#

and it would help with several things

#

blizz could say, anything on the tracker up to date X is fair play

#

this way, you would have "everything goes"

#

but also competitive integrity, bcause everybody has the same information

Any tips for an Assa rogue heading into Mythic Fyrakk?

i need abit help here for some reason when i spread my bleed on opener i do less dps i c sim Dont spread bleed alot
is sim working fine ?

shy pecan
#

Sims are fine. The question is whether your opener is fine enough for the content you're doing.

#

(Unless you're talking about dslice, to which, you shouldn't be comparing your numbers to that)

shy pecan
#

Okay, so the question is whether or not the opener is fine enough for the content you're doing

#

If things are dying by the time you start doing your opener, then that value from your sims won't matter

silver escarp
#

!dagger

narrow eagle
#

i know but im testing on dummy 🙂

is [Zoldyck Recipe] count on sim is active all time ?

#

Question for Raid cleave situations - like gnarlroot, tindral, council, etc. -- Is the only difference in talents that you take is Caustic splatter instead of Internal Bleeding? Do you take IC at all? And if you do what do you get rid of to pick it up?

#

Also I kinda wish they'd either REALLY buff poison bomb, or just get rid of it and give us the 2 points back.

plain moon
balmy condor
balmy condor
#

Can’t make it a gateway to that much power and have it also be super strong on its own

#

Like doomblade into sepsis/bone spike

nimble zinc
#

true i guess 😐

#

yeah rip shadowlands abilities

balmy condor
#

If doomblade was worth even half as much as a normal talent we would never not be playing bone spike or sepsis

#

So it got slaughtered

#

And now it’s worth like barely a quarter

clever sapphire
#

besad bonespike, will always miss him

nimble zinc
#

sounds like unnecessary gatekeeping

#

why not just get rid of doomblade and make sepsis/bone spike one node closer?

runic hinge
#

Tuning

balmy condor
#

Cause then we would always play sepsis/bone spike

#

It would be a required point in all content

#

It’s just the kingsbane problem on a smaller scale

nimble zinc
runic hinge
#

I wouldn’t mind sbs coming back tbh

#

More dots ya know?

balmy condor
#

Kingsbane is like an 11-12% talent

#

If you make it 11-12% and also free to take

#

You always take it

#

Because you would be actually braindead not to

#

So then you either gotta nerf kingsbane into the ground

nimble zinc
#

God i hope they never do that

balmy condor
#

Or you leave it as is, which creates rigidity in the tree, for example like Deathmark and other 2 min cds

#

And then people bitch that the tree is so rigid

#

Or, you have to buffer kingsbane with talents that spread out the value

#

Poison bomb being one of those where it’s not a crazy strong talent by itself

#

But it has to dampen kingsbane being crazy

#

You could do the same steps with sepsis or bone spike

#
  1. Nerf into the ground
  2. Leave it and make it required
  3. Dampen previous points
#

And we saw that happen over and over again

#

Exsanguinate

#

Was a crazy crazy talent

#

Very high in the tree

#

So we go to the 1,2,3

#

2 isn’t the design intent of exsang

#

3 would require a lot of points moving around, and the expansion was already releasing

#

Neither of those options work

#

So 1, and exsang got obliterated

nimble zinc
#

dang

balmy condor
#

45 second to 3 minute, 100% to 80%

clever sapphire
#

man i wish that assa had also a way of playing where its completly centered around dot management, and it would do better dmg on prolonged fights if your dots never drop. But kingsbane build would still exist if a more bursty option is needed (or for m+)

nimble zinc
#

Yeah i just think its dumb that Assassin isnt top dawg in raid rn

#

they were freaking designed for it

runic hinge
#

There was a good 3 weeks

balmy condor
#

Was originally designed as an exsang buff

slate crown
#

There was an idea in the general channel a bit ago. I would have liked to see a more sustained option where you nurture your dots overtime where their damage slowly increases (with safeguards in place to not turbo fuck your damage by downtime)

balmy condor
#

But it’s actually really hard to make that work without cancer gameplay

clever sapphire
#

ye i can imagine it being pretty hard to properly execute

balmy condor
clever sapphire
#

the thing that popped into my mind is S1, where if you played assa on council it was completly about dot management and your cooldowns were all secondary dmg

#

i enjoyed that a ton

nimble zinc
clever sapphire
#

they probably had a build like that in mind with the sudden demise side of the tree

balmy condor
#

Not really

#

Sudden demise side of the tree is encouraging multi dotting but just by the way sudden demise is designed it’s never going to be a corner stone of a build

slate crown
#

Like conceptually, lore-wise, I like the idea of assassination being damage that slowly builds up without the victim noticing at all, while they are distracted by other damage, and by the time they do realize because the damage has ramped so high, it's too late. Contrasting that with the upfront mega burst of KB+DM. This is kind of zoldyck I guess though.

balmy condor
#

Kb is that

slate crown
#

That's true

#

in a shorter window

#

I just meant over the course of like, multiple minute fights, not over the course of 14 seconds

spice spire
#

I will not make the joke.

  1. No Windfury, no monk, no PI
  2. wrong Talents
  3. Opener completely wrong DM at 21sec HUH
  4. Didn't use 1 trinket
  5. same dm mistake at 2 min
  6. wrong phial

tamaran probably gonna give you a better review, but why did you press fok on nymue monkahmm

We get yelled at for using Rage

tepid vers is better than elemental as well

waxen oyster
#

why its not alot of damage

#

unless you're on fyrak

thorn fjord
#

Tepid is the play usually for prog if your guild minds you running Corrupting

waxen oyster
#

yeah i mean i think fyrak is the only fight my hp has felt ever in danger

runic hinge

Tell your healers they’ll parse better if you run corrupting

also your pooling energy badly missing tier set procs, but I havent looked at Sin logs in some time so I dont know how much you hit when done right but missing 35% isn't it

We have a guidie who did phial and pot cauldrons all expack

Not entirely sure on how/what pooling is and how it works for the set

thorn fjord
#

Because he was bad and got benched

woeful meteor

phial cauldron was a gold loss when they came out at least on EU

waxen oyster

our gold goblin is an officer

so we just phial from gbank

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
clever sapphire
#

pooling in short is turning off the outlaw fingers and waiting before using a finisher dracthyr_kek

cedar yew
#

Ah thank you! I seen something about pandemic but wasent sure what that was

prisma monolithBOT
#

Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs

if you have those down the rest is gonna be easy

But I'll just practice the opener, assuming it's always that order?

clever sapphire
#

mut to 5cp > envenom > dm > shiv > dance > kb

#

make sure you dance before kb

cedar yew
#

Does it matter if it's king dance or dance king?

clever sapphire
#

ya it matters

#

always dance before kb

cedar yew
#

Macro's together a no go?

clever sapphire
#

you can do it

#

just remember that kb is on gcd and dance isnt

cedar yew
#

Yea ok perfect 🔥

clever sapphire
#

(meaning you will have to press the macro more often if you pressed it during a gcd)

#

but aslong as you dance before kb its gonna be fine

cedar yew
#

Perfect

#

I'll give all of that a practice tomorrow.

Hey everyone. Outlaw main here but wanting to pump more on Iridikron tyran weeks. Is sin solid for that? Many have mentioned sub but that it's punishing if you mess it up. I was thinking maybe sin is a better choice for me.

thorn fjord
#

They both work really… depends on what you’re already better at

#

M+ sub is running DB build iirc

#

So if you played sub in the previous tiers it’ll feel familiar

#

Sin works well too tho

#

Also gear set between OL and Sub are much more similar

silk bane
#

theyre both fine, sin doesnt get execute ont hat boss so probably less good. also sins a lot squishier than sub so theres that too

#

but also u get 10% haste on shields so a bit more buff for sin i guess? idk sin just squishy

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

No way I ran CT on fyrakk kekw

It kinda got killed in raid with the change to scale up to 4t

Wish it was good enough to use on 2t then it would still be useful

Imo they need to revert that change

Or do a halfway change like it scales up 50% per target beyond the first (caps at 2)

Rather than 25% (caps at 4)

i'd understand the frustration if it were like the 2h legendary

I'm not stressing but the mechanic makes the game less enjoyable for me 🤷‍♂️ and others as well

subtle tundra

i dont see the problem

that 1k dps wont make or break anything

i mean, if the game is less enjoyable for somebody because they do 600less SIM DPS and virtualy 0in reality

idk man

thats some weird shit at that stage

noone said anything about it being related to damage output? some people just want to get the cool items

i care less about the dagger and more so that i have min maxxed my gear from the content i do, and i can either try and join a mythic prog team or wait each week for 1 item to possibly show up as an ilvl upgrade

spice spire
real pike
spice spire
#

I’m still 445 and I’ll meme on everyone

real pike
#

and that's ok

#

I'm personally somewhere between the two

subtle tundra
#

honestly, i think its good that there's m+ loot thats bis
gives an incentive to play every week

#

not for me, but for others

real pike
#

I'm very old school, I think all the best items should come from raids period. But I know that's not a common opinion

oak tangle
#

so as im SoL of joining a mythic prog team, i'm dependant on vault myth track items showing up. one of the reasons I have made a second rogue. I know it's mostly self imposed (the not doing myth raid thing) but i feel if you are going to lock myth track m+ loot behind a weekly vault there needs to be some luck mitigation to get what you need

subtle tundra
#

(i literally have ilvl upgrades in my inventory that needs to get upgraded and enchanted but im too lazy to do it for 6 ilvls)

allright, thats some Peak varas shit

man i want burger now

but uh, i struggled to fit into my pants yesterday so that was rough

so you can improve gear from it but it's not more powerful than raid rewards themselves

real pike
brave gazelle
subtle tundra
#

not really :/

royal lantern
#

and m+ is allready waaaaaaay to gear efficent

#

like

#

0effort at all for max lvl stuff

#

everyone gets tier sets from spamming shit+ and catalyst

#

how many pieces your character uses are actually raid drops

#

and not m+ drops/m+ vault items/m+ items you used catalyst on/crafted gear

subtle tundra
#

idk man but folyr needs some fucking trinkets from those M+

real pike
royal lantern
#

why the fuck should it do that

#

??

real pike
royal lantern
#

just delete raids at that point lol

real pike
#

Just said that's not the catalyst

#

I'm just thinking out loud of ways that raiding leads gear improvement with m+ following rather than the other way round

brave gazelle
#

If you where just handed everything without a grind pve would be almost pointless, I get not getting a drop for ages I'd frustrating but it really isn't as big a problem as your making it out to be when there are many alternatives, aye

fleet pagoda
#

i'm surprised people are finding gear acquisition too slow. i'm even leaning it towards being way too easy(fast?)

brave gazelle
#

I went 60 dry on the witherbark, but I enjoyed the process init

brave gazelle
royal lantern
#

aquisition itself? yeha, m+ needs a nuke in that regard

#

its just

#

bruh

#

not timing a +18 giving the same reward as mythic smolderon

#

like, you dont even need to "win" for the max lvl gear in m+

#

can overtime it by 9hours

#

doesnt matter, its a vault slot

fleet pagoda
#

i'd be down for a more deterministic way of getting myth track m+ loot if they moved the goalposts, sure. i feel like the issue is more, for example, witherbark's giga dick benefit compared to other trinkets in our loot pool than the drop rate of the thing itself

brave gazelle
#

18s feel like 14s in shadowlands too, they're way to easy for the gear you get outta them

#

13s*

royal lantern
#

10.1.5 made m+ very very easy ye

#

like, at df launch, a +20 was quiet a challange for the first 1-2 weeks

#

same for 10.1

#

now? LOL

oak tangle
#

i'd appreciate a vault system where you can pick the keystone you wish and it drops an item from that key. and i think yeah you should have to time a 20 to get a myth track item

#

the good / bad part about vault is how it incetivises people to feel entitled to certain loot for content, and any 18 giving myth track loot is a problem of that

clever sapphire
#

i have no idea what you mean (only doing 18s for the last few weeks cause i cant be bothered to go higher dracthyr_kek )
