BUT MY SIM DPS Smadge

#

Every boss is a five minute (ackshually averaged between 100000 4-6 minute pulls) patchwerk with zero mechanics

#

And everything you say otherwise is a lie

Just BM hunter bro

u can 420 any mechanic and pump

Surely reverse engineering in game mechanics is perfect and completely human error free

no clue where to ask this, can anyone help me where I can find Image of Kalec? (for Balance of Power questline to unlock legion artifact appearence), i looked up on wiki but can't figure it out, i just finished class hall campaign, i read on wowhead that "image of kalec spawns in your class order hall after a few days after finishing the campaign" but idk if that's still the case

limber lion
#

Hmm no clue. Can't remember as it's been years. Sorry. Maybe ask in #wow-general

modest spindle
#

ok ty

lusty mountain
#

bois, is it ok to go ashes+irideus for m+?

dark token
#

For sin? Not that good

#

Sim it

#

The idea about the on use trinket is to bolster our cds

modest spindle
spice surge
#

Irideus is fine, you just treat it like a 4 min trinket

normal mist
#

On solo dances

spice surge
#

Obviously ashes is better

#

Yo peeps, need an advice. Week 1, I crafted Toxic Footwraps, as I thought it would be better, shall I proceed with the patch, or just go with BSL now?

junior aurora
#

bsl

true condor
#

Brothers i have a question

#

could we macro Dance with beautiful kingsbane

clever sapphire
#

yap many people do it

#

just make sure kb is after danc

#

dance*

gusty mirage
#

what I'd personally do (if gold isn't an issue) is craft the patch until you can make your 2nd bsl item

#

then swap

#

then when you get third spark, craft a 2nd BSL item and recraft the patch to bsl

junior aurora
#

can also just sim it

gusty mirage
#

I'm iffy to tell people to sim embellished gear because it's kind of a pain in the ass w/o gear compare or adding items to top gear

junior aurora
#

fair

#

at the end of the day, either option you decide to go with will be within 1-2% of each other and not be super noticeable

gusty mirage
#

which btw it's been an entire expac

#

can we get a better interface for that shit on raidbots already?

junior aurora
#

yeah like an option in the droptimizer

silk dirge
#

When should I try to work in Ashes/Grief in my rotation?

gusty mirage
#

trying not to drop your envenom buff

royal lantern
gusty mirage
#

yeah it's fucked tbh

#

esp now that they put grief on the gcd

dark token
#

Or just use gear compare

cursive owl
#

Hello guys , 8 months abstinence of WOW , what are currently bis trinkets ?

#

Iridius fragment still broken ?

dark token
#

Ashes and grieftorch

cursive owl
#

ok O-o

#

no iridius fragment ?

normal mist
#

Irideus was never good

spice surge
#

3 min trinket not good on a 2 min spec

cursive owl
#

i seee

#

ok

spice surge
#

Its alright, but not great

cursive owl
#

Ashes and the stupid grieftorch UwU

normal mist
#

It's only stupid if you have good teammates

gusty mirage
cursive owl
#

i hate the torch

#

can i use the Branding signet ?

normal mist
#

You can move while casting

gusty mirage
#

I would not recommend signet in keys

#

but its fine in raid, it's better in longer kill timers in raid

#

but it's also sink or swim kinda damage

#

its either nutty or kinda dogshit

cursive owl
#

i see

normal mist
#

Just go grief and laugh as your teammates die and you keep using the trinket left and right

cursive owl
#

xD

#

ok

gusty mirage
#

or if you want a passive trinket, can always grab a whispering incarnate icon

#

I know healers want it

#

so in groups you'll always have crit and haste (I think healers give haste?)

normal mist
#

Brrrr

hardy dagger
gusty mirage
#

yeah with a lot of teammate deaths grieftorch is literally the best item in the game

gusty mirage
#

so you can turn brain off and macro it if you want now

#

it's still slightly more damage to hold it for 2ish seconds

hardy dagger
gusty mirage
#

dw the assa tier set is double dipping

#

so you're shitting out the damage

brave zenith
#

so i shouldnt hold it for 11 anymore?

hardy dagger
#

Yeah played Assa for our mythic clear

#

Not to bad

gusty mirage
#

@dark token that's why you were shitting out damage

gusty mirage
#

it is more damage

brave zenith
#

yeah im used to it

gusty mirage
#

just less important than it was before where it's just a micro optimization

hardy dagger
#

Aye so used to popping in at 11

dark token
#

But not like op

gusty mirage
#

yeah seli was sending me his stuff too

#

and I was like hmm

dark token
#

With the bug sin in actually a good place

gusty mirage
#

something's fishy

hardy dagger
#

Might aswell eh

gusty mirage
#

then I saw your log and I was like yeah

#

something's not quite right KEKW

dark token
#

Like only reason I topped volocross is I had a 25k DPS external

#

I SHOULD be top

brave zenith
#

yeah the only time i dont hold ashes is in keys

gusty mirage
#

ye the bug just makes assa competitive with the top dogs now

#

instead of middle of the pack

brave zenith
#

shit dies to fast

dark token
#

Ye

hardy dagger
#

I mean the bug is fix right2ez

dark token
#

It's a good spot

#

Strong not op

gusty mirage
#

but this one is beneficial

dark token
#

Keep it

gusty mirage
#

yeah honestly its fine

#

it's not like assa is doing 100k dps more than other people

dark token
#

We are actually balanced with this bug

gusty mirage
#

it unironically landed assassination in the perfect spot post buff

dark token
#

Assa is in a good spot rn

#

Yeah

spice surge
#

The double dipping isnt new

gusty mirage
#

didn't they update a flag with the fix?

dark token
#

Not op, middle of packish without pi, good with pi

#

That's a good spot

brave zenith
#

tbh in keys they feel like middle of the pack also

gusty mirage
#

or was it that it went unnoticed for so long @spice surge

#

eleem discovered it fwiw

brave zenith
#

definetely coolwdown based but feels good

gusty mirage
#

he's the smart one here

spice surge
gusty mirage
#

neat

#

maybe those nerfs were justified then

spice surge
#

Because it doesnt make sense

gusty mirage
spice surge
#

Its also not a very big change

dark token
#

So if they fix it they will give compensation buff since it was here for so long I guess

gusty mirage
#

yeah tbh I think they just leave it now

dark token
#

They left the warlock bug

spice surge
#

Like 4p doing 12% more damage is like 1% at most, more like 0.6-0.8%

dark token
#

Even tho it balanced em for keys KEKW

gusty mirage
#

rip destro btw

dark token
#

It was actually perfect nerf to destro

#

Can't believe they revert

brave zenith
#

all warlocks do is bitch

#

anyways

gusty mirage
#

you're not wrong

#

them and mages

brave zenith
#

could be top dps all expac and they want more

gusty mirage
#

the only wizards allowed to bitch are spriest, because every single time SPriests get used to the 18th rework of the expac

#

blizzard changes it on them again

brave zenith
#

tbh. spriest does get the worst end ur right.

gusty mirage
#

they change spriest, everyone bitches, they get used to the new playstyle, they start to enjoy it

#

"OH WE'RE REWORKING SHADOW AGAIN"

#

"THIS TIME WE GOT IT FOR SURE GUYS"

spice surge
#

This time they did get it

gusty mirage
#

I hope so

#

I feel bad for Publik

thorn fjord
#

Where shopping is a pleasure?

gusty mirage
#

the man's had to do more rewriting for his guides in the last 3 expacs than all other specs combined

#

lmfao

spice surge
#

Theyve been top tier for m+ all df seasons, kinda mid for raid most of the time though

brave zenith
#

tbh assa feels so cozy rn even before buffs like the spec generally feels good to play so im happy

gusty mirage
#

yeah assa's in a good spot, I just hope the war within changes with max kb stacks removes the impact of PI

#

because it feels pretty shitty to rely on externals to actually do damage

brave zenith
#

the bone spike thing is awesome

gusty mirage
#

I'm hype

#

maybe I don't quit the game after all

thorn fjord
#

Can you nutshell it for me @gusty mirage

gusty mirage
#

KB has max stacks

brave zenith
#

and i think it gives combo points and energy

gusty mirage
#

CP for each spike

#
  • the refund mechanic stays the same
#

it's super nice tbh

#

and less clunky

#

or at least in theory should be less clunky

brave zenith
#

yeah tbh it helps funnel for keys so much

thorn fjord
#

interesting

dark token
#

Kinda prefer current sin over the TWW sin so far tbh

#

I like the KB big burst

#

1 minute burst is the best dmg profile in the game

thorn fjord
#

Why did so many people hate on SD

gusty mirage
#

I think the KB burst will still be there, but the removal of snapshot + setting a max on KB stacks will lessen the reliance on PI

dark token
#

Ye I like SD more than sepsis for sure

subtle tundra
#

Not once has 1 min burst been useful to me

gusty mirage
#

mostly

dark token
#

It's macros to kingsbane

thorn fjord
#

meh

gusty mirage
#

now vanish functions the same as dance did for assa and outlaw

thorn fjord
brave zenith
#

the removal of snapshot in keys help u be more attentive in higher keys

gusty mirage
#

with 6s subterfuge

subtle tundra
#

Esp since it also requires prep time and takes 10 sec of ramp

thorn fjord
#

The vanish change will suffice

gusty mirage
#

yeah it's not a super big deal, except dance was 1 min and vanish is 2

thorn fjord
#

so then 1 dance per min

gusty mirage
#

so you'll def feel the difference a bit but it won't be glaringly oppressive to no longer have dance

thorn fjord
#

er vanish

gusty mirage
#

it's also a see what happens when you actually play it angle

#

ya know

thorn fjord
#

Just gotta break the last 2 years of playstyle is all... Welcome change though im about it

gusty mirage
#

patch notes are just words on a website until you get to actually play with it

slate crown
#

hi

brave zenith
#

are we losing the node for longer melee range next expac

gusty mirage
#

yeah it's swapping to inc melee damage

slate crown
brave zenith
#

nice

thorn fjord
#

T-Rex arms blows so much

gusty mirage
#

it's not t-rex arms though

#

it's the same melee as all other melee*

#

*except ret paladin and I think feral

#

because for some reason ret paladin is a melee with 25yd range on all of its abilities

brave zenith
#

if u have played ass for years its legit just a melee buff

thorn fjord
#

Pali's lose their leggo and theyre mortal again

gusty mirage
#

it'll be chill

#

things will work out

#

I believe

man, i thought im cooked

oh @thorn fjord also cttc for every spec now

No

brave zenith
#

in tww

slate crown
#

No explosion

royal lantern
brave zenith
#

damn

slate crown
#

Just chaining, env with env = more env damage, doesn't aoe, but does go through spatter still

gusty mirage
#

"friction" - ggg

thorn fjord
#

Not having SND was amazing lol

gusty mirage
#

"immersion" - blizzard

royal lantern
#

idk like i know im the "meme SnD bad" guy

#

but seriously, if you make it almost 99% passive, why not remove it then lol

thorn fjord
#

'Its not that its bad

slate crown
#

if I wanted immersion I'd go play one of hundreds of other games that aren't wow

gusty mirage
#

I'm still indifferent about snd

royal lantern
thorn fjord
#

BFA was nice not having to cast SND

gusty mirage
#

idc either way, I wasn't excited about it being reintroduced

royal lantern
#

im just really confused with it

thorn fjord
#

One less plate to spin

gusty mirage
#

I remember everyone being hype with SL returning old abilities

#

I saw shiv and snd

#

and I just laughed

royal lantern
#

meanwhile mage

slate crown
#

I'm similar, I don't mind it, my taking of it as a role icon was mostly to be contrarian

royal lantern
gusty mirage
#

like oh okay, cool ig

gusty mirage
#

I made the role icon to troll tryan

#

I wonder if outsiders peek in from time to time

#

and be like "these crazy people actually like snd"

slate crown
#

It's an o.k. ability I wouldn't mind it gone and I don't think cttc is like a huge massive giga deal for the other specs, it's nice but w/e

royal lantern
#

legit funny

thorn fjord
#

Hey OL got step

#

HUGE

brave zenith
#

the crackshot nerf to ol may be big

thorn fjord
#

I dont think they could do another expansion with the same Crackshot playstyle

royal lantern
#

mate, outlaws where shooting crack right into their brain if they thought the current playstyle will stay lol

thorn fjord
#

It was fun but its starting to get kinda zzzz now

#

They need to give OL an AK47

brave zenith
#

lmao

#

A MINIGUN

thorn fjord
#

Lets upgrade to Semali pirates

#

Fuck this old yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me pirate

#

Give me a modern version

#

if OL had an AK i'd only play that

brave zenith
#

LOOK AT ME im the captian now

#

imagine the aspects being like champion we need ur help as u walk into a raid battle with grenades on ur belt dual wielding aks.

Hello fellow rogues, how do you do? I played sin rogue back in shadowlands super casually and quit after like 6 months without doing any M+ or raiding. Came back halfway through DF season 3 and mostly tanked some raids and got KSM tanking but found a guild in need of a rogue. I have been practicing this spec for the last 3 weeks but my logs are showing me in grey parses (most of the time).

There are not a lot of runs logged for this spec and I kind of assume that the people playing it are well practiced on the spec. I was curious if I could post my log from heroic amirdrassil for review and get some recommendations for improvement?

dusky carbon
#

anyone have a good neatplates import for assa?

After using wowanalyzer it really seems like I have solid uptime on dots, I'm using my big cooldowns maximum number of times during most fights (sometimes skewed because I hold deathmark combo until phasing smolderon etc). I definitely see some small efficiency improvements like making sure I cast ambush during stealth windows over mutilate.

Could the small sample size of the spec just be very competitive that im grey parsing? Again, I've only been taking a serious look at sin for ~3-4 weeks lol

violet jackal
#

What’s your item level?

thorn fjord
#

Could be a gear issue

sterile cypress
#

500-501 throughout the raid, I'm specifically looking at ilvl% to try and get the best gaugue of things but maybe thats not actually a good number?

normal mist
#

Ilvl parses can be flawed

violet jackal
#

Never look at ILvl parse

split cipher
#

parses are a bit wonky as well with this 1 week rotation per raid at the moment too

#

smaller on smaller sample size

thorn fjord
#

yeah i grey parsed a fight last night (floor POV) and still got like 89th overall LOL

lyric vale
#

Assa seems so good on raid bought boost for my pally on fyrak he was dealing 400k persec on boss only

#

What the state distribution for single target;)

brave zenith
#

sim

#

always sim

sterile cypress
#

Okay, very much noted. I'm absolutely seeing improvements compared to week 1 in Vault. Final question for now - I've been using raidbot to sim gear and spending too much time logging in and out to update single target vs aoe builds with gear, but is there an ideal end game ratio for stat distribution? Like I was learning some frost mage in S3 and they specifically said to get ~33% crit to ~ensure~ their glacial lance crits.

brave zenith
#

not a frost mage. gotta sim buddy

thorn fjord
#

Wait why are you logging out for sims?

lyric vale
#

Hmm semms is telling me more haste how much haste do i need jesus i have 3k and seems like its still low

dusky carbon
#

maybe a stupid question, but anyone know how to move the power resource bar in the center down? trying all the y offsets in plater and nothing is working

thorn fjord
lyric vale
#

Ahhhhh imo bang my head into wall rotation is easy getting items is hard😫

violet jackal
#

Personally I only sim for single target, the most I’m changing from raid to m+ is a trinket slot

lyric vale
#

Unfortunately i domt have ashesh and i bought boon for outlaw this week so ashes will be delayed till next week

#

Guess should run doung this week for azure neck and fragment and haste mastery wrist

thorn fjord
#

I won’t be able to get double BSL till four weeks from now OMEGAKEKW

lyric vale
#

What is bsl ;)?

brave zenith
#

blue silken lining

lyric vale
#

Oh

#

Wait min that mean dieslow went for head and fingrr craft this week?

thorn fjord
#

I went boots

#

But I multi spec

violet jackal
#

Wrist and belt for me

dusky carbon
#

are there ideal slots for crafting blue silken lining to? i went wrist and trying to decide on 2nd

lyric vale
#

I went boot waist;)
Shadow flame both

thorn fjord
#

Wrist belt rings boots

lyric vale
#

But for outlaw

violet jackal
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
violet jackal
#

Fuu got it on a ring and wrist but whispyr has it on wrist and belt

thorn fjord
#

I’d swap the toxic patch off my wrists and plop bsl in it but I dunno

#

Prob just wait it out

lyric vale
#

Hfff i want to do raid and i cant pull out enough dmg out of outlaw in raid

#

RnG is hard to controll u know

thorn fjord
#

My mastery is so low right now in sin that my sims don’t even want my eggnog ring lol

brave zenith
#

outlaw is easier to play then assa in raid

violet jackal
#

Heroic?

gusty mirage
#

cause they have the least impact for ilvl loss for crafted gear

potent raven
#

the 3ilvls u lose on ur helm will cost u 10 billion dps

gusty mirage
#

but realistically it's whatever even if you go boots

#

because the variance in dps is way larger than the % loss of crafting on boots vs belt

thorn fjord
#

Sin is a flow chart OL is reactionary

brave zenith
#

for someone new to ass

lyric vale
#

Game seems broken tbh now

violet jackal
#

Funny enough some players gain i lvl from crafted gear PepeLaugh

potent raven
#

outlaw is ez af

#

sin is the real deal

brave zenith
#

if u fuck up the opener

#

and subsequent kb windows

#

u do no damage

potent raven
#

that goes for everyone pretty much

thorn fjord
#

direct all your OL questions to @gusty mirage

#

he's the expert Kappa

potent raven
#

im playing sin now its the ultimate spec for m+ because u have no acro

violet jackal

Isn’t zac the expert

#

id be playing sin but my gear kinda meh xd

brave zenith

both do different things

#

outlaw has consisten damage every pull ass bursts hard

clever sapphire
#

i love this guy, gets asked about assa compared to sub and he compares assa to outlaw dracthyr_kek

royal lantern
potent raven
#

nothing wrong with saying w/e he said

#

hes not wrong but like if the pulls last long enough u can top the meters

brave zenith
#

im working

royal lantern
#

hi working

brave zenith
#

sorry yeah i dont know sub

clever sapphire
#

didnt play sub yet this season, but imo sub is more aoe aoe burst and assa is gonna make 1 guy melt and do big aoe in the meantime

#

is the aoe bigger than subs? no idea

potent raven
#

sub has a lot of ramp from rupture

brave zenith
#

sub always felt weird to me all ur aoe is tied to rupture and sec teq

im gonna go with sin i just like poisoning things lol

whats the average you should be hitting with the kingbane WA thing with deathmark i'm useally around 3-4 mil without 1.5-2 mil

probably roughly that on average

should be able to peak more with rng

OMEGAKEKW why it could be like this

It's a big pain in the ass to update wowanalyzer for the hyper specific rules for like KB windows and stuff

gusty mirage

but I sure as shit am not going to reopen the auto thread opener command

true condor
#

i feel like i cant catch the moment when Dance->KB for Ambush

gusty mirage
#

quake's already gone mental

keen spruce
true condor
#

like i just cast KB then Dance over

keen spruce
#

@true condor if you just post a log normally someone will take a look at it eventually

#

sometimes not

keen spruce
#

but like

true condor
#

could i just put it here

keen spruce
#

also make sure you read the guide

gusty mirage
keen spruce
#

cuz it might also get flamed if you're doing goofy shit

wanton spear
#

i thought we only hit ambush if we get a bs proc is that not true anymore

keen spruce
#

well

#

mut just turns into ambush

#

now

#

with BS

gusty mirage
#

it's like slightly more damage to mutilate over ambush during lust/pi in dance w/ KB

keen spruce
#

I just hid the blindside visual indicator and let my mutilate cast whatever it wants to cast

gusty mirage
#

kinda based tbh

keen spruce
#

never even look at blindside

i was over complicating my M+ gameplay last night and doing dick all for damage so i completely changed how i was playing and now i'm at least 300k at end of dungeon

whats our ST raid spec? the M+ specs aren't updated to use caustic spatter in the faq is the st one updated?

spice spire
# proven jasper :3

Please DO NOT announce to the server when You are going to :3 in #1080572530554835072 .This has been a reoccurring issue, and I'm not sure why some people have such under developed social skills that they think that a server full of mostly male strangers would need to know that. No one is going to be impressed and give you a high five (especially considering what emotes you've been using). I don't want to add this to the rules, since it would be embarrassing for new users to see that we have a problem with this, but it is going to be enforced as a rule from now on.

Hey guys, new to Assa ( and rogue/melee dps in general) im really loving the class, seems rlly fun, but during opener i feel likeim jsut pressing random buttons, is there any good video guide of what to do during the kingsbane/deathmark opening :)?

clever sapphire
#

one is wowhead, other is check whispyrs channel

#

he has a few videos on assa basics

#

rotation

#

restealth

#

all the interesting things

dark token
ashen topaz
#

Thanks 🙂 i was checking wowhead i wanted something more visual! will check whispyrs channel 🙂

#

also, do you guys macro any important abilities together?

clever sapphire
#

i personally dont, but i think most assa rogues macro dance and kb

#

you always press them together so its a why not

#

i just like pressing it seperatly

obtuse cliff
#

not used to it since outlaw didnt want u to swap targets with ghostly strike

dark token
#

use mouseover garrote/rupture macros

#

sin doesnt want to swap targets either

clever sapphire
#

mousover in big pulls is a big oof

dark token
#

due to caustic spatter

clever sapphire
#

i just tab target

wanton spear
#

i stopped tab targetting for bleeds and it fixed my wet noodle dps

ashen topaz
#

noob question, how do u mouseover macro garrote/rapture :)?

obtuse cliff
wanton spear
#

caustic does significantly more damage

clever sapphire
#

5 targets i use it twice on the same, 6 i target the one without garrote, 6+ i try to garrote 2-3 important targets

#

rupture 3 times

#

and boom go ST on one guy

wanton spear
#

just make sure the one guy can survive for at least 30 sec

obtuse cliff
clever sapphire

like ur big burst abillities

are all on enemy

not on you

#

it feels so weird, u target wrong thing and u have 0 dps

#

XD

gusty mirage
#

ye its def different if you're not used to dot specs in general

clever sapphire
#

after doing the keys a few times you will know before a pull which one you want to target for your cooldowns

#

in pulls where you use your cooldowns there is usually a guy everyone hates

gusty mirage
#

the real answer is it never really matters cause chances are the spriest and devoker/fire mage are gonna kill everything before your dots do damage anyway

obtuse cliff
#

KEK

clever sapphire
gusty mirage
#

that's why you play sudden demise and pad

clever sapphire
#

fire mages are dumb and dont run flamestrike even in 10s, devokers are augs that got benched so they have to learn dev, spriests are brain afk

gusty mirage

#

i like watching how zerocool plays assa

runic hinge
#

Is spriest fotm? Am I just following the trends?

gusty mirage

of course

spriest absolutely fucks in keys

unless your monitor is off

#

then it doesn't

thorn fjord
#

@runic hinge dirty bandwagon man

runic hinge
#

Damn

clever sapphire
#

im pretty sure all high keys have an spriest in them

#

you can rotate the other 2 dps around

#

but you will have an spriest

obtuse cliff
#

spriest is broken unless u can't hit ur aoe spell or tank does a bit of trolling and pulls pack away KEK

wanton spear
#

anytime you beat an sp or evoker in damage, it just means they are bad

runic hinge
#

Yeah. I was looking at archon and it seems they are pretty meta

did you think all of these people wanted to learn a spec they'll have to relearn 8 times next expac too?

But I hope they don't go futher than removing vanish as a offensive cd

and maybe we get something else to press from new talent trees

#

i mean the one from tww

wanton spear

aren't they trying to reduce our button bloat

potent raven
#

as long as we do damage and it requires some effort and thought into it im fine with it

otherwise probably quit angle

i know this isnt outlaw section, but this as an example is straight up a nerf not sure how you can cope otherwise: "Adrenaline Rush has been updated:

Now increases global cooldown recovery rate equal to your Haste while active, up to 25%.
Now increases Energy regeneration by 50% (was 60%)."
