Bonespike is sad
!dagger
no IW is a massive oof yeah
the tww change is so good for bonespike
cannot wait for that for sure
sure its good, but how are you gonna talent into it 
like i dont see a way for the shock build to take it (crab or ap build or whatever you wanna call it)
heck i can only see a way for it in the hybrid build
like i legit dont know how to talent doomspike
not so bad for a 35%$ wipe
35% wipe is gonna be your time to shine
execute incoming
ye
@shy pecan this one is for you
faaaalse, declining all the aug players in your keys is fun
good point
tbh

i think i still put the Opener wrong
x)
i do shiv > Tea > DM > Ashes > SD+KB makro
wait O_O
do i even need tea ?
i mean more mastery = more dmg no ?
i mean you caaaan do that on opener, i jsut tea at the last 6 sec

Its literally a 0.1-0.2 difference
OK
I also just tea last 6 seconds
also its envenom - dm - shiv- dance/kb
Yeah ur shiv a little early
not shiv - dm
i put envenom as "general knowledge"
it was more targeted towards your shiv before dm
As long as shiv covers all of kb its fine
i go apply the bleeds, 1 snd 1 envenom and then start KB opener
yes yes
it does 😄
i have it tracking :>
aight then its fine
look my fancy KB bar OwO
What am i looking at
<< artistic , it changes every 2 months xD
That’s wild
same
O_O
I only find out until my screen is flashing red 
i press defensive when shit happens
how can it be all use Manic Grieftorch and Ashes of the Embersoul bot if i sim it Ashes of the Embersoul and Cataclysmic signet Brand sims better why do no ones play thes to ?

Brand is good but only really on 5+ minute fights because it requires stacking up
grieftorch better because ON USE , cata sim better cause better passive effect
signet is a trinket that gets better the longer a fight goes, grieftorch is always good and if even 1 guy dies its already better than signet
With greif and ashes ur always getting lots of value out of them
even on short fights

also signet can be a little biatch and proc so little it doesnt do anything
The Red snake Trinket
Truth
Is gigachad when u have high crit in M+
in 5+ enemy pulls i do like 15% of dmg with that trinket
Oh the snake idol thing
ye
well
is it really that good? i never used it 
im aiming crit cap
its a meh trinket w/o crit tho
but is it as good of a passive trinket as echo trinket that just randomly hugs you outside of your cooldowns?
i dont think so
Yeah with crit it gets alot better
yea
yeah no probably not
I love getting hugged by big void old god
That floats behind me
same, need to get the trinket for m+
even if grieftorch is big
i do enjoy just not having to think about trinkets
snake idol i can recommend of testing in m+ OwO
High rolling echo feels so good too
because snake idol does "procc" from Dot Crits from your poison and bleed
imagine echo/wafting/sark cloak/pi/bloodlust during smolderon intermission in execute, now that is a 100% log if i ever heard about one
I have a 98-99 or something parse from when it was current due to getting echo procs in legit all my dm windows
or gnarl
this is a pants changing moment
WAIT
theres a itemrestore option Owo
beastmode
did you delete your augury?
i have a clip of
1m opener on nymue
with fucked up vanish
and spatter
proccing wafting
i also had a 1m opener on sark last week, got 2 wafting procs in opener during bl/pi
probably used up all my luck there

my gear kinda good rn
kinda regret eranog ring
What will be best for me to use from Trinket which will probably progress 4 maybe 5 mythic bosses?
i dont multispec so tahts whatever
but it does like 0.2%-0.5%
could have gotten sark cape or hugging squid instead
ingore my cape
its for m+
using sark for raids
but ye i feel u
i think its good stats anyway
it looks nice, but also difficult to read
even for assa
simmed like 100dps increase for me
so if i simmed 2 more times it prob would have been a dps decrease

!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
cant craft shit so im not even combining
i dont have a use for crests, im capped 
im just done, wont even run sims anymore
either i take sark cloak and squid or nothing
there is a high chance for dps increase with recrafting and neck and whatnot
no nicholas..
not willing to go in that dungeon
i did it hahaha
i sat and waited for 3 hours
to make a proper grp
ppl were wiping and quitting
is it still that hard? 
for me its fine :> but i can edit it any time i want ^^
2nd boss is the same but with a frontal no? 
and no
yes
never had augury
but people are stupid
qwq
Dagger is still 3k dps for me
People have never known how to do that boss properly lmao
And Im pretty much bis geared lol
Everytime ive pugged it healer just runs around like a headless chicken
Same with most ranged
last season gave me ptsd from that whole megadungeon
iridikron parry, every boss in the other part
Fun with a group 
RiP
dragon skip on that bridge thingy
critmaxxxing
Serpentmaxxing
Ya quite a bit of suffering for 2.5k dps
sense

trinket is dealing 15% in trash pulls in m+
highest overall i had was 21%
in s3 at least
x)
just outlaw
assa for life OwO
sub subscribes in secret to assa players to learn how to play better OwO
wish i was that good rn
haha pink numbers
haha
pink is a girl color
you're a girl
haha
Owned
liberals shall never recover
Get sark cloak, catalyst it for M+, then get another sark cloak for raid
so all paladins are girls confirmed 
i'd kill for 0.8% dps in a senseless season
i like OwO
Brother sense is literally playing, see screenshot above
?
log in bestie it's doti time
i wouldnt care for .8% dps even if i was playing
do you know what sounding is? its similar to doing doti
basically the same
lolol
i think i will design a custom interface wa for me :3 just to make sure it looks beautiful OwO
youre not a masochist
you dont know me
yeah I've listened to the beatles before
I'm familiar with sound
i too like music and sound things.
YES OwO
Saw you're using them already but I love the blizzard progress bar textures they added for Maelstrom/Fury/Insanity etc, look very nice
I still like the solid texture for energy but I'll probably poke around with the other options when I revamp for tww
i need to make a wa that tracks procs
what kinda
@slate crown can you make weakauras work on alpha pls
weapon enchants/sark cloak etc.
my brain is exploding
no plater, no weakauras
just me and details
and having to track these fucking marks in aoe
separate from my caustic target
and also all my bleeds
opener is fine, after opener is tough, and then having to find a way to go back into openers actually splits my head in half I can't even conceptualize all the things I need to do
whispyr daddy, do we have a list of changes yet for sin ? in tww ? im blind
there's a couple of pins in #tww-assassination
Oki
have you tried pressing buttons?
yes
did u tried to reload ?
many times
it's hard to know how I'm supposed to play around these stupid fucking marks though
hes beyond the scope of modern medicine
cause what the fuck
am I supposed to do with this
I can't even tell what the intent is damage wise
O_O
sick singular focus dam
thank you
glad to see max was right with that B-Tier funnel damage assessment
that's 5 minutes on the 4 target dummies in boralus

HUAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW .8% DPS?!?!
AS MUCH AS A DAGGER FROM DOTI
ye i mean
fatebound stuff doesn't do shit for damage either
and like I get "numbers don't matter"
I agree
i think its safe to say that they threw deathstalker out there because they "needed" all hero trees to be available prior to moving to beta, but this definitely aint it
but they're like
not even close to a ballpark number
usually things go up with numbers that are semi-reasonable
and you get things that are way too strong and way too weak and then eventually it gets tuned
but it feels like they didn't even bother making an attempt to get close
possible due to datamining too
is it Difficult to add a "progress texture" in wa ?
not really
do we know a target they aim for?
weakaura discord also has great documentation
the trees as a whole should be around 25% worth of power
that sounds big
i see oki thanjks
yes, but some are more passive
so like, if the initial node, and the capstone are 10% combined, then we're looking at 15% for the other 7 nodes
2-3% per node
kinda adds up
!wa
Assassination Weakauras/Plater profiles:
Whispyr's Afenar Edit
Luxthos's Group
LE's Group
LE's Profile (lots of one-off weakauras)
Devlin's Group
Ceverion's Plater
Whispyr's Plater
Pooling Practice Tool
like the fatebound capstone is easy to estimate the impact
that's around 5%
and I assume tails/heads are going to be tuned similarly
math kinda adds up to make the coin and the capstone 10-12%
without any of the talents that augment them
THE FUNNEL
OMG THE FUNNEL
B TIER
THE FUNNEL IS SO INSANE


idk why but i just loved that part cus of how insane it sounded
sees a node that says "3% of your dmg to other targets is done to this single target with a mark, and you cant really juggle them marks fast anyway in aoe rn cus the desing is borderline not functional"
and just turns brain off and goes "YEHA THIS IS STRONG CUS IT SAYS FUNNEL"


Can only get better from here for deathstalker right 
yeah i really cannot either
don't jinx it
blizzard deciding to take delves literally
pulling out the pickaxe as we speak
they're gonna hit rock bottom and keep digging
That’s a lie king
You don’t pull out

throw in a quick Aul for a nice double proc neck and we talking
^ holy shit we're farming for adorned next expansion?
"we heared your concern regarding the marks beeing applied by ambush and shadowstrike causing problems, now its applied by using Fan of Knives and Shuriken Storm from stealth" followed by nothing else and a 4page fire mage update 
only if I can get oxi-touched luck
blue gems have double effect
I would riot
Why would you put this out in the universe 
This is how we ended up with outlaw rogues and lizards
hey
lizards are cool
just aug is too much BS at once
Imagine making lizards, putting those thick boi guards in valdrakken, and not giving them a tank spec

yes sure, give me the furry bait draknoids uwu
unironically, devestation is the first time i actually had fun playing a caster in wow
why are there so many mop news, i dont care about mop, gimme hero talent news
for more then 2hours
wowhead gonna wowhead and push out every single crumb that comes out
people keep clicking on them
Tbf nowadays blizzard usually batches everything on the same day as the alpha/beta patch
So wowhead news on weekends are usually kinda whatever
the funniest thing is that we all know that IF the funnel would be as good as people expect it to be, it'd get nerfed into oblivion within minutes anyway cuz blizz doesnt want that kind of funnel existing anymore
They have an alpha build available #1238532946571296860 message
Also the alpha version on Curseforge should work
well
That said, I can't test it myself to verify the chain of making it functional cause no alpha access
If I had alpha access I'd have put in the effort to make it work
alpha addons are still a disaster
yeah I'm not surprised
maybe I reinstall and try again
I couldn't even get the alpha details to work until I had someone zip their addon folder to me
disaster
i lived through the great funnel-bonk of Zul
yeah maybe try again :/
i still remember what it was like 
yeh I tried yesterday
think I probably wait until next alpha build
and hope it fixes something in the background
I'm going to be fervently trying to get it to work come next week but so will bajillions of other people I'm sure
Assuming I'm in the first wave
i still cant get over the fact that they did a fuck up
removed the problem
then NUKED the spec into obilivionfor the rest of the expansion for no reason at all
like, what the fuck
i can believe it. wasnt the first time, wont be the last
maybe dungeons can actually be queued
I made an hpal to help queue for it
Was the problem just lack of people?
you ever see me play hpal?
yes
why would I have seen you play hpal lol
Return of whispyr monk when
desparate times
its just
the problem was gone
why did they just keep kicking it down for the next 2 years after that lol
meanwhile bfa also had warlock/spriest and they did nothing
remember BoD/Crucible, where the best dps comp was more or less "1 dh, 1 mage, rest stack sspriest and warlocks" 
°^°
if i manage to make my WA fianly done , may i post it in here and u guys tell me if looks good :3 ?
don't trust im he is the bad guy from day of tentacles
(i am just joking)
I don't know the reference D:
If i play the aoe CLEAVE build from wowhead in filler rotation, do i change target to dot garrote and rupture or not?
Nokhud in elemental area. Which target to cleave off? Since totems seem immune to bleeds
NO kinda a banger for just having a big mob to cleave off every pull
Is there a pin anywhere on which assa streamers you can watch? I'd preferably like one, that has the addon/wa which displays which abilities are being pressed
We have a streamer channel #rogue-streamers
Other than that, no
Making a pin like that quickly leads to favoritism and “why am I not on there” and “why is XYZ higher on the list than me” etc etc
Understandable. Still, is there someone with the streamer wa/addon? I'm not very good at the game and tracking spells without that is very very hard for me and I'd really like to see what people actually do in practice compared to the theory
Something like that, only for oneself though. Details has that as well. Just something so I know what the streamer is pressing so I can better understand what cooldowns the person uses in which circumstances to get a feel for it. Just standard learning by watching
u can watch zerocool
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out!
Is rehkili reliable for assass?
Gonna assume hekili. No
Yup
there's no way to mog a sword onto daggers as a sin is there?
No
life is suffering indeed. thanks.
The haste only affect tick rates of dots isn't it ? It doesn't increase the damage done by the dots right ?
Well having more ticks means it does more damage overall, but yes it doesnt increase the damage of the ticks
Ah ok I misunderstood, I thought the total dmg was the same but only the frequency changed
No the duration remains the same, so increased frequence of ticks means youll get more ticks overall
(and theres no discreet breakpoints or anything, the last tick can be 1/3 of a tick, 1/2 of a tick, 1/6 of a tick etc)
Yes but I tough the ticks were adjusted to reach the same amount of total dmg
Oh ok
Thx Eleem 🙂
But for say rupture that says the amount of dmg it will do in X seconds, the tooltip shows the dmg adjusted with haste ?
Idk tooltips in wow are famously unreliable
Ye ..
I wouldnt put any weight on what the tooltip says, you just have to hit dummies to find out 
Ye it's more reliable ^^
Ok but the basic is that a dot as a base dmg per tick and the haste is adjusting the frequency
If I understand correctly
Yes
Ok thx ^^
Another thing why don't use 2 charges of Tea every 1 min ? To cover almost the entirety of KingsBane Dot and to empower Deathmark and the duplicated dots (every 2minutes) ?
You cannot use a spell with a 1 minute cd twice every minute
And while yes, it does have extra stacks, its more worth to use em for energy than empowering the meek start of kb
it might not be that worth if u have ur envenom chain broken coz no energy
we normally want 1 tea to cover those last KB ticks
its what eleem said^^
Yes ok
Ye I'm not contradicting Eleem, I'm just wondering ^^
Ok so we can't empower DM because envenom chain is hard to maintain
The main part of tea is the energy
If you use two of them during deathmark youll surely waste some it, which is not good
didnt say u do,just pointing out the obvious,sin needs energy to chain those envenom coz its good dmg
and what eleem said about wasting some of it^^
Ok but it's a waste energy wise in that context
trying to decipher the context
No I meant if the mastery is not worth
mastery is a flat thing gain when press tea
energy is more like the gas u dont have to continue
idk if that makes sense
Yes it does, but does the mastery from tea immediately empower all dots ?
Yes it does
at all times,everytime u press
thats what i meant by flat thing gain
i think u need a sim that compares the different tea use in terms of absolulte numbers to compare and understand
Yes ok but then I thought the mastery buff would be huge when you have DM with all the active dots
Ho yes I need this a lot ^^
@balmy condor lord whispyr sir sorry for the tag but is there a sim where there is a comparison between pressing tea twice on each KB+DM window(if im not mistaken its what its hypothesized)compared to using tea to extend the envenom chains
im out 
wish I could be too
Whispyr isn’t it better to use 2 teas during kingsbane? 
frankly if you're getting pi and the fight is omega short like it is now, probably not terrible
meme season
but god it hurts me
even mythic larodar these days has like 3:30 kill times
just slam teas whatever
its not going to affect your parse regardless
last time I simmed it with normal kill times it was -0.6%
I assume with fast kill times it's probably close to neutral or better
but even with sims it's kind of unrealistic to begin with
parsing in this season is insanely dependent on having good kill times, good proc rng, and the ability to pad on stuff like fyrakk
if you can get big procs during a caustic pad
double tea is probably going to be better
but in a vacuum it's hard to justify
if you're playing for the giga god roll
go for it I guess
My exact plan would be : 2 tea first DM then 1tea on KB then 2 tea on Dm and then 0tea on this KB and repeat. This way you have always 2 teas available on DM and you only have 1 KB without tea every 4 KB
I'm not after parsing ^^ I'm just wondering what's best ideally 😅
isn't that the same thing
I meant I'm just wondering after theory crafting but I don't care about kill times etc ...
yeah but your kill times inherently impact whether or not it's worth it
it's not worth it on longer fights
True
cause you're going to run out of energy more
But its dynamic
if you're in a 3 minute blaster fight
I'm more in a general way for start
Ah ye I understand
given how quick the kill times are this season
you should feel empowered to hit your teas during cds if you'd like
on short kill times, it's probably better
you're not going to run out of energy on short fights, and if you do, it's either at the very end, or you have a tea charge left
it's always better to end the fight with no tea charges
so using them early during cooldowns is better than not at all
yeah
Ok
3:30 probably works too
Ok
as you get to 4:30, 5 min you start running out of energy
Ok thx
np
Do you have the APL lines that you used to sim the teas on CD just to try to play with that on my own ?
Ah ok
busy with all the alpha stuff and merging in the last couple changes before refactoring for tww
I get to double check tea logic for tww again
this time with giga nerfed kb
and gear reset

Yes me too 😦
kb was kinda overwhelming for the spec in 10.2
I mean they tried to fix it with the poison application nerf on dtb
How do you do your rota in AOE in real situation where you have to send dm fast?
but it's so rough
should i be using crimson tempest in m+? because a streamer just said something that i didnt understand, Like on the first boss of ruby you dont want to use it on add phase can someone help me understand why please
agree but i hope they make up for the nerf
press gar press rupture press cds
there's builds that do and builds that dont talent into crimson tempest, if you're talented into it, you press it on 4+ target
hope were not a pi class anymore
I don't think we will be
none of the hero talents atm open up some haste-cooldown-stacking nonsense
cool
and the kb cap change + no nightstalker
No garr-garr-mutilate-evenom? Got a rotation helper, which say i should do garr-rup-mutilate or foK to 6 then evenom and them cds
takes a lot out of it already
what is new cap ?
rotation helpers are super stupid, they just try to follow their list
your question was trying to get out cds quickly
u have to rupture for caustic
And if i got time?
you just gar -> into cds and rupture during them
well if you got time then what's the problem
just do a normal opener
yeh
Ok but normal is not going to 6 cp and evenom and then cds?
it's always set up dots, pick a target, cooldowns
it's optimal to 6cp envenom into cooldowns yes
that's the setup
if you need it faster, you skip the envenom
if you need it faster than that, you don't spread as many dots
Whisp New to Assa, so I have like 2 basic questions: during KB should I let first shiv run out and reapply next global or refresh with the global before when it’s like <1 sec remaining. 2nd at times I have envenom running still outside of pandemic but close to capping on energy. Do I refresh preemptively or sit for a global on max energy?
- Refresh it
- You would want to avoid capping energy
TY highly appreciate it. Bad habits die slowly so don’t want to build them in the first place
Yep
ill be there to share the load
be ur samwise
actually super hyped for beta
I use deeper strategm generally for es we the 5% buff in M+ right? Im thinking how much real dps loss it will be ober acrobatic strike since life is easier and you can do perhaps better dmg cauze of higher range?
If you want to play acro you drop deeper + alacrity and go lethality + acro
But remember that acro doesn’t exist next expac
So probably worth getting used to it
+acro ws never that good for assa anyway
Acro is fine
It wont exist but range wouldnt be expended next exp?
good mornbing
My face when we didn’t have acro for like 15 years and then we got it for 1 expac and now everyone’s losing their shit that it’s gone
good mawning cxcx
It's better to never have it than to have it and lose it :'(
yes
its also like
idk
i used it in S1/S2, didnt use it in S3 and felt no real difference
The quote you’re referencing is literally the opposite 
Idk man
Change happens
Game would be stale without change
wait no
my quote is right
assa never had it and it was k, but it sucks having it for a brief time and losing it :3
Your quote is right, but the saying is “Tis better to have love and lost than to have never loved at all”
i think in this case he's saying it'd be better to never have acro at all
Oh, didn't know you were a poet
I’m not, it’s just a very famous quote
Yeah I just… couldn’t care

ic ic

again, the only thing that annoys me there (or more like, confuses) is their statement WHY they do it
aka the entire "we increased melee range across the game" thing
when if anything the melee range problem got worse over the last 2 expansions
Idk, melee have been really strong recently
It all led to rets being this stupid
I think it's better to gut all the range increases and just design the game around nobody having it imo
what has that to do with anything
like
do you even know what we talk about rn lol
It really hasn’t gotten worse though
You said that the melee range problem got worse
And i have no idea what you are refering to
I think it’s easy to forget how bad like bfa was for melee range
Remember dazaralor? Mechatorque or whatever his name is, having to kick the bombs and the robots chasing you? Get fucked bozo
yeah that was a nightmare
King rastakhan pushing you off of the boss for a whole phase
the extreme clutter and animation overload + bad visuals for enemys effects which makes it sometimes impossible to see ANYTHING in melee, atleast the range increase talents let you walk away a bit and see something at all
Literally all of jaina’s aoe
even the kingkong dude was weird in bod for melees
Okay, I can agree on that
Shrine of storms was swirlie hell
The clutter and unecessary ground effects and all these animations are awful
enjoy tww :)))))))))))))))
Crucible of storms was ranged stack
Like idk man
Melee range has gotten way friendlier compared to 5 years ago
Their whole thing of range increase is bullshit
But to say melee has gotten worse is insane
it comes down to one simple thing
game design got more aware of melee range, it is why we have less extremes in raid
if the design team does a good job, you barely notice it as a dissadvantage
but if they get it wrong it is immidiatly apperent
Yeah
it is (as with a lot of other things in the game) something more memorable because it stands out if done incorrect
(also we as human tend to remember negative emotions better, does not help here)
jokes on you, i dont

im always negative, so its not something i need to remember
I wouldn't even mind anti melee fights if blizzard didn't add so many melee classes to the game. Before evokers, every new class has been melee.
it doesnt matter how many classes lol
the game is balanced around having each class beeing in your raid 1x anyway
Yeah well when most of those classes are melee it does kind of matter.
there is just this really stupid exception with shaman, where the raid utility is bound to the melee spec only
there are 13 classes
6 are melee only
only 1 is DPS only (rogue)
^
You take similar amounts of melee and ranged
Like instead of 3 warriors you take 1 warrior 1 dh and a ret
But it’s 3 melee regardless
like, again
your normal raid will have by itself 13 spots reserved by default
6 minimum will be melee simply because you kinda want those classes
no amount of melee specs in the game will change that lol
6 is a lot when you need all 6 in your comp and there happens to be a shit fight like fetid devourer where it hurts having more than 4.
They nerfed fetid precisely because of groups taking no melee
and btw, the "more then 4 melee makes the fight unplayable" was once again people parroting world first teams that did the fight on week1 with no gear
like always
like yeha, you didnt want 70% of your dps comp beeing melee dps
but you dont want that regardless on any fight lol
But again, why does the composition of melee affect acro
Or the fight was unplayable with more than 4 because it was terribly designed and I actually progged it week 1 on mythic?
progged it, or pulled it for 1 hour and then was next reset
cus thats a kinda big difference
I don’t really think so
The fact that you get to mythic fetid week 1 is already impressive enough
But also if you’re progging that fast, you lowkey don’t get to complain
You signed up for degeneracy and it’s degenerate and you’re mad about it

No sympathy from me
just to talk about it historically, you could absolutely run ranged only raid combos.
And at least for most parts having more ranged dps than melees was benefitial
but raid buffs and less extreme melee unfriendly design now balances it out
before that we had:
ranged unfriendly fights - would be mildly annoying for ranged and give them slightly lower output
melee unfriendly figths - highly punishing for melees, to the point of the fighe becomming much easier if you just stack ranged dps
so "how much worse" each was on fights designed for the other one was noticable in favor of ranged
it also leads to things like blue posts mentioning raid design being always ranged favored, something i don't think still holds up today
they went a bit too far with it
but honestly, its a hard thing to solve
espacialy when many ranged dps give blizz the signals that they always want to cast with instant cast procs and shit, instead of standing still and hardcasting
so rn we have quiet a few fights where for often 50% of the melee dps its just "afk at boss and do dmg"

bm hunter is basically a melee in ranged position
but i agree
if you play classic servers, casters are more in line of mobility and often limited by mana
but its all design space, having lower differences between melee and ranged restrictions
is a philosophy we saw more in modern wow
The struggle as melee is more real in m+ though
Looking at you affixes like spiteful
rly comes back to this
affixes shouldn't punish you for spec or class choice, if they do its bad design
melee is pretty hard rn
esp with no acro
cant relax for a second in these dungeons lol
That makes no sense to me
wdym, lets make mandatory dispell affixes
what doesnt
i played other specs so
We need fun affixes
Im confused, you said you wanted fun affixes? 
The damage buff it gave was tons of fun
Until you got to like +25 and it was borderline unkillable in a reasonable amount of time
Or you ever deviated from your route in the slightest
I think at some point that shit was just skipped because it wasn’t worth the time or effort right
Just like the damage from thundering was fun? 
just ignore that the buff is the only thing that made killing bosses possible on some tyranical weeks + more or less only gave you a couple of seconds back that you wasted fighting the stupid miniboss
Ye exactly
less healer check
more "you have X seconds before the healer has no big cds anymore and you all just die"

like, the only could rotate their cds and hope you killed it before they where over
all affixes we labled as fun
had some benefit to them
so in terms of "lessons learned"
legit 1 of the worst ones we ever had, togheter with infested and the shity azhara one
affixes that reward you for the trade off > affixes only designed to slow you down
man, fuck affixes at this point
we legit only have "gets ignored cus they dont really do anything" and "GL getting into a group as warrior/dk/rogue lol"
season 2 bfa
you could completely skip the affix
or pad the damage meter
both positive outcomes
idk where people always get that
I legit never felt like it was an issue
and I play all 3
even tho 2 are tanks
WELL I WONDER WHY
I sure do aswell
bcs our rogues should be the same
I only ever notice a difference that comes down to tuning
no difference at all between weeks
Tell your basic pug piece of trash mage or priest groupleader that
Pugging is pretty aids as rogue ngl
im talking about pugs fam
Its obviously not something you notice with premades
unless you got weird ones

mates, should the seal be doing more damage? :/
It doesn’t do a lot
How much damage does your other big stat ring do tho?
Exactly

i just thought it would be doing a tad more
but every time i go check its super low
Maybe you can compare with your sim numbers?
I don’t think the fire ring does a lot of dmg unless your a class with actual fire spells in your rotation. Like mage, DH, Warlock, etc.
To me taking the fire embellishments and flaring cowl isn’t worth it for assassination.
I just went for stat rings.
Worth if your sim said its an upgrade(and better than the other options available)
no class actually take embellishments just for that since that's a marginal loss afaik
0.4% is very reasonable amount for a free proc 
guys do u recommend using this weak aura?
yes its fun maybe
its fun seeing big kb number
well im just lvl 38, i don't how kb works but i think it will help and like zomb said seeing the big number will feel good
ur plater should tell u for shiv envenom
im trying to track sad and others importants buffs
at high lvl keeping sad up is easy? cause at my lvl feels like a pain
what is sad sorry
slice and dice
keeping sad up is super easy when you have spriests and locks in the group
use a class weakaura
You press SnD and forget about it. Even in M+ the duration is long enough that you rarely press it.
I kept seeing ppl post screenshots of the kb weakaura and i was dumb compared the total damage number to my highest tic damage and i was like “why tf am i so bad”
To be fair, sometimes the final tick of a good KB during DM is more than a whole non-dm KB
Plater won’t tell you envenom, it’s a buff on your player
!wa several packs here for important buffs to keep up 🙂
The WA you posted is something many use to compare their current kingsbane to previous kingsbanes, which can sometimes be helpful.

I don’t use it but I’m biased as I use my own kb wa. But, to each their own
I don't use it because it would only ever make me mad
kinda hard to track it on plater was are a bit easier
y mine tells me 😆
but yeah its better to get used to play with wa
Do you use personal resource display or something?
How does it show you a player buff
Ah
Seems like too much work given platers an absolute pain in the ass to customize but if it works for you
yeah and im used to it now
but definitly annoying to set up
i juste hate class wa, covers too much of my screen
fan of knives should not give 1 combo point per target ?
#subtlety <- this way
subtlety has 1 cp per target hit with shuriken storm
when do we want pi? just on dm?
k just making sure we didnt need some weird timing
i mean priests are slow anyway itll cover ur kb i think LOL
well, they are finishing their casts first
Im leveling trough legion to get my mount class, that crow looks amazing. Im 41.
I like that rogues are so dead in M+ that they have to repeat same lvl keys from 2w ago, literally only one is a small boosted streamer with a single 20 AV (easiest key)
Are we that bad in m+?
We aren't
melee, target capped in any spec, low aoe cc, no useful utility for current dungeons, meh dmg, i can go on and on 
People's definition of what is bad in M+ is highly skewed by their play level
i’m just telling from playing other “meta” classes
Sure
If you're coming in with expectations of what it's like to be a shadow priest in high keys, you're going to be disappointed
yes u can be screwed by your own skill issues etc.
purely stats can confirm where rogues are
rogue is mega good in m+
Just trying to not communicate that rogues are trash to someone who is new and leveling. You aren't bricking your keys because you're playing a rogue
not being invited in pug =/= being bad class
Stats in this game are useful but are also easy to misinterpret and be used for the wrong points in the conversation about viability or potential, or how "good" a class is
legit one of the best classes for every key that is not top 0.1%
immortal + big dmg + insane prio dmg + very very decent cc
not invited anywhere cause of affix situation + no bl no cr
And it's fun 🙂 I have a lot of fun aoe managing for sin at least
you’re immortal at 14- when boss doesn’t one shot you with unavoidable dmg 
any1 knows why meld doesnt put me into stealth for imp garrote?
#showtooltip Shadowmeld
/stopattack
/stopattack
/cast [combat] Shadowmeld
/cast [nocombat] !Stealth
literally on a target dummy and it doesnt work
doesnt trigger subterfuge
you litteraly avoid unavoidable dmg
strongest node/talent across all rogue specs if u ask me
youre the best class in the game in unavoidable dmg situations
yeah its so crazy good
its extremely powerful with no conditions to meet or anything
simplicity's strength at its finest 👌
damn right you’re, probably every 2mins?
just press feint bro 
I think it is a fair point that rogue, especially sin, struggles with surviving high keys. That's a fair point.
faint evasion is rly clutch also + all 3 specs are fine with a lot of versa
I also don't care
kinda disagree
sin is def the squishiest of the rogue specs by far
its like not even close
outlaw is the tankiest rogue spec in m+,followed my sub,last is sin
is outlaw tankier than sub ?
yes
sub with the vanish shields is un killable
but didnt play new outlaw at decent level
Shields everytime you dance+vanish
That too
alot more mobility
same
Ye
but ye its main outlaw stat
Do u press stealth afterwards
Thats how u should do it
Press meld macro then stealth
Because meld is wonky and doesnt always drop your combat immediately, you sometimes have to wait like a second for it to go off 
And sometimes it doesnt work at all
im actually playing mast/vers,works like a charm
in m+
sin doesnt care all that much for stats so i kinda found my comfort zone there
tanky but not as sub,tankier than regular crit/mast
i was sub early szn and swaped at buffs
so i still have my sub crafts stats etc just swapped some pieces
but mostly sub gear so same
i was going back and forth between sub and sin for the entire expansion
same XD
played some outlaw but didnt rly like it
and im an outlaw main btw
this iteraiton is cringe
played sin until i died in a key then swap to sub until im bored
same but i didnt even touch outlaw in dragonflight
played it too much in sl ig
I liked it more in sl
kyrian outlaw was unreal fun
ye sub was god in sl
But i dont hate the current iteration
Just a die hard sin boy and we all know how sin was in sl 
even in aberrus
joined my guild playing sin in aberrus they were looking at me like an animal
