Why doesn't my Premade Groups Filter work

:'(

ebon notch

is it up to date?

#

cause blizz added their own version of it

#

maybe it bricked iut

#

if you click filter it actually has options now

limber lion
#

Oh that's interesting, CurseForge doesn't even recognize it

#

It says that I don't have it installed

#

Maybe that's why it hasn't updated, I see

From WR2 to getting declined from +4

Yeah, gonna have to do that

blissful cosmos
#

while playing sanguine blades on single target do i always wants to be above 50 energy even if my evenom buff sometimes drop and im not hitting as many envenoms because of it

blazing jewel
#

Play around envenom chaining with tier set not sanguine blades

#

Think this is the command

blissful cosmos
#

i guess my main question is does staying above 50 energy outdamage spaming evenom like a mad man

blazing jewel
#

!pooling

prisma monolithBOT
#

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
blazing jewel
#

Don’t spam envenom just chain the buff before it times out

blissful cosmos
#

yea that makes sense

#

just try to chain the buff

limber lion
#

You chain Envenom, if it drops, then you go back to full-ish energy

#

Then you start it again

#

In TWW it's gonna change where you chain Envenoms up to 50% but probs never wanna go below 50%

#

The effect is so miniscule there

blissful cosmos
#

how about kingsbane tho does spaming evenom into kingbane outdamage staying above 50 energy?

limber lion
#

Cooldown rules stay the same

#

During cds you still spam

blissful cosmos
#

well with 4 piece it says dont care about pooling

#

right?

#

says dont play for sanguine just tier set

#

i think the 4 set explosion does more dmamage then sanguine

#

based one what that says up there

blazing jewel
#

It does but the idea is you only env to keep the buff up

#

So try to refresh it right before it falls off

#

Unless you’re in kb then you dump because shiv is active

limber lion
#

But just like the past 10 years, during cooldowns you do not pool and you just spam

#

But outside of cooldowns, you would pool - and in this instance it means keeping up the Envenom chain without wasting Envenom uptime by slamming Envenom too early

blissful cosmos
#

so if you do it to early the 4 set dont work?

#

says envenom at the last second of the buff to make it work?

limber lion
#

No

#

It does work, but it's not efficient to do so

#

Because you waste Envenom uptime and thus you get less procs before you run out of energy

#

So you want to do it at the last second to maximize energy and uptime

#

If you spam, you get less chains and thus less damage

blissful cosmos
#

oh ok so spaming makes the buff drop

#

edventually

limber lion
#

...

#

No

blissful cosmos
#

like when i rupture

#

it might drop

limber lion
#

The buff will drop eventually by itself

blissful cosmos
#

i know

limber lion
#

Because of energy costs and whatever

blissful cosmos
#

i have to evenom to keep it up

#

only time i seen it drop for me is if i have to rupture

limber lion
#

Like if you know you want to Rupture soon, you might want to Envenom a bit early to get a longer Envenom

#

To allow you to keep up the chain

limber lion
#

In an ideal situation it only drops when you physically don't have enough energy to press Envenom

#

When you literally cannot afford to press Mutilate/Envenom

blissful cosmos
#

so basically playing like this might even give us more sanguien damage with the tier set i feel like

#

if we pool so much

limber lion
#

Huh?

#

No

#

You do not care about Sanguine damage whatsoever

blissful cosmos
#

i know

limber lion
#

By doing this, it's the same as spamming in terms of Sanguine

#

It's the exact same uptime

#

What matters for Sanguine, is not going below 50% to begin with

blissful cosmos
#

i just feel like if waiting to evnomum for the last second so much it would naturally give us more sanguine damage

limber lion
#

No, because chaining Envenoms will slow down both parts of Sang

#

You will spend more time inside Sang in the 50% window

#

But you will also spend more time outside of the 50% window because you chain Envenoms even under 50% energy

#

You would get more Sang damage by pooling back to 100% after getting to 50%

#

But you don't do that

#

You continue the chain until you're 0 energy

blissful cosmos
#

oh ok

limber lion
#

It's kinda the same idea as some people have with Zoldyck

blissful cosmos
#

alright so il just only care about evnomom last second of the buff

limber lion
#

As in "the more hp a mob has, the better effect Zoldyck is"

#

But it's the same effect and same %

blissful cosmos
#

along is i do that im playing rioght?

#

right

limber lion
#

In the next expansion we'll do much more Sang damage because we pool back to 100% after hitting 50%

#

But currently we do not care about it at all

blissful cosmos
#

and druing cooldowns not care about shit

limber lion
#

Yes

blissful cosmos
#

spaming like a mad man

limber lion
#

You chain Envenoms outside of cds

#

and spam during cds

blissful cosmos
#

ok thank you bro

limber lion
#

Glgl

raven night
#

since its easy to type out a few premade filters like 15-15 for av nok uld and 16-16 for the other 5, whereas the blizzard one is a pita to filter for multiple sets

ebon notch
#

Yeah i know

#

That’s why I still use it

glass hemlock
#

Is it worth keeping CT up even on ST bosses?

shy pecan
glass hemlock
#

bless, thanks mate

#

also christ, TLDR of all the messages above: chain envenom at 1 sec outside cd's, spam during cd's xD

glass hemlock
#

!wa

restive marsh
glass hemlock
#

@slate crown hiya! just looking at your WA pack, do you track your defensive cooldowns in a seperate WA or just look at your action bars?

slate crown
misty holly
#

Watching that first pull, how do you track bleeds on targets? Im not seeing an easy way to tell which targets are dotted yet (or if any of them are)

restive marsh
#

it was 493 I just kinda tab and randomally apply stuff I think

glass hemlock
#

i really like how compact it is

restive marsh
#

Is there a good tool to use that helps with that?

limber lion
glass hemlock
limber lion
#

You don't even have poisons

misty holly
restive marsh
#

haha yeah i realized that a few pulls in

slate crown
# glass hemlock i really like how compact it is

Hiding the information when they are off CD is a deliberate choice and something I prefer, many prefer to just show them at all times, which is a fine decision as well. That's just one of the design decisions/flavors of my pack, and I can understand if someone prefers them to always be shown.

Thanks, appreciate it.

restive marsh
#

and applied them

limber lion
#

Right

#

First things first

#

!wa

limber lion
#

Grab my or Whispyr's Plater profile from here

#

Then

#

!guide

limber lion
#

Read the Wowhead guide and go into the rotation section

#

You always start pulls from stealth and with Garrotes

#

It's not worth it for us to go over what is good and what is bad

glass hemlock
#

This is exactly what I did, grabbed the proper WA's/platers, read the guides, then hit the dummy for 4 hours, then ran m0s

limber lion
#

Because all the basics are completely missing

#

You need to spend some time looking into the basics first

restive marsh
#

Gotcha, I tried to learn rotations and stuff but clearly haven't spent enough time on it haha, but that's a totally fair point

limber lion
#

This is a good place to start

#

Like not having poisons and not spreading bleeds is a massive rotational error that you need to fix immediately

misty holly
#

its tough, the rotation page can be a bit overwhelming, especially for an aoe pull. You dont have to get it all correct to do a +2 key.

limber lion
#

It's what the spec revolves around entirely

glass hemlock
limber lion
#

Would highly recommend going through the videos and spending time hitting dummies

#

Everyone starts somewhere, so no worries!

restive marsh
#

WHat kinda damage should I be putting on the dummys before I jump into dungeons?

glass hemlock
#

Also make sure you are running arterial shock build in low keys instead of DTB seems to be the general advice!

limber lion
#

What you need from dummies is to know what buttons to press and when

#

If you're confident you know each button press is the correct one for multiple minutes straight, you're doing good

#

But just looking at the opener and seeing you run out of stealth and spamming Fan of Knives

#

Is not it

#

Just get confident hitting dummies

#

Maintaining bleeds on them

#

Getting good weak auras to make sure your poisons don't drop

#

And you're on your way

restive marsh
#

Dope, thanks this all very helpful

glass hemlock
#

i'm nearly 510 ilvl, it's taken me about 3 weeks to get consistent 250k-300k overall damage in anything from a +2 to a +8

limber lion
#

It'll take a few hours to get the basic stuff down but with practice you will get better and better

#

Mythic+ is an amazing place to practice rotation in, especially lower keys

#

But I'm sure you'll enjoy it much more as well if you got the basics down first :P

restive marsh
#

Yeah I was kinda hoping I would pick it up in these lower keys but progress is slow lmaoo

glass hemlock
#

theres 2 builds, one is for Raid or 15+ keys

restive marsh
#

thanks!

#

Ohh is it the one with the aoe finisher?

glass hemlock
#

this is the recommended for lower keys 🙂

restive marsh
#

nice and the main adjustment to the rotation is that in aoe pulls i use crimson tempest instead of envenom but I should still rupture things right?

glass hemlock
#

you still use envenom

limber lion
#

You maintain Rupture to maintain Scent of Blood stacks

#

You Garrote on cooldown, focusing on IC Empowered Garrotes

#

You Envenom to take advantage of Spatter + 4p

#

You go full ham on one big prio target with all cds to Spatter the damage to everything else

#

And so on

restive marsh
#

gotchaaaa yeah that makes a ton of sense

limber lion
#

But it's all pretty basic stuff

glass hemlock
#

can my work day end so i can play? all this talk makes me want to play hahaha

limber lion
#

You IC Garrote everything in the opener, then you Rupture if IC is remaining, then you CT

#

Then you blast one target or spread Ruptures still if you have IC or don't have 5 of them yet

restive marsh
#

sorry what's IC?

limber lion
#

Indiscriminate Carnage

#

Essential talent for AoE

glass hemlock
#

good to note as well, out of stealth you can garrote the same target twice to get it to spread to targets that don't already have it. not sure if that works with rupture as well?

restive marsh
#

ohhhhhh which also helps a lot with energy regen having garrote and rupture on all the guys

#

oh that is a nice tip

#

less tabbing around lol

glass hemlock
#

yep! ideal amount for rupture is 5 for scent of blood, which is another talent

restive marsh
#

yeah i think the most things i ever had ruptured in that video was like 3

glass hemlock
#

depending on amount of targets i try to garrote x 2, rupture up to 5, fan, CT, mutilate then fan and spam envenom/keep up bleeds

#

mutilate every 9 seconds for spatter

#

and kingsbane etc for big targets

#

at low keys you kind of have to hold your death mark/shadow dance/kingsbane combo for bosses. but you can use it if you know it'll be 2 minutes or more until boss

restive marsh
#

Yeah i think i held onto those too much for bosses tbh

#

could have used them on pulls more for sure

#

also this whispyr vid is really good

limber lion
restive marsh
#

gotcha

limber lion
#

As well as the other "Everything you need to know" videos

restive marsh
#

Nice! Yeah definitely binging all of these

thin estuary
limber lion
#

More like it depends on what you're trying to achieve

#

But there's more things to consider for higher keys

thin estuary
#

Like?

limber lion
#

Do you want more prio damage, do you want more aoe damage, what dungeon is it, what route does the tank take, what comp do you have

#

and so on

#

Where as for lower keys everything dies quickly regardless so playing stuff that leans towards prio/st/kingsbane is a bit of a waste

#

when you can never get a full KB off

restive marsh
#

Something I've always been confused about is all the things that are buffed by stealth like the extra benefits for Garrote: does that apply to shadow dance as well or just the initial stealth and vanish?

thin estuary
#

And if I want to lean into prio/st? What talents do I take?

silk bane
# restive marsh Something I've always been confused about is all the things that are buffed by s...

oh boy, this is a really difficult question to answer. there are essentially multiple types of stealths and they mostly behave differently than each other. this link is fuu's feedback on EU forums, it kinda goes over a few different types of stealths, their behaviour and what they impact. https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/feedback-rogues/517032/10

World of Warcraft Forums

The remaining posts will go into more detail about gameplay and design problems. The tragedy around Stealth All three specs have Stealth as part of their combat design but there are a lot of inconsistencies. For start, there are two types of stealth: Real Stealth - Players can enter real Stealth outside of combat. Vanish applies a variation...

#

its a bit hard to go over everything now because you have true stealth, improved stealth, subterfuge, shadow dance, and things like meld/sepsis etc. hope this helps

restive marsh
#

wowwwwwww that's wild lmao thanks i'll look into it

silk bane
#

i think in this one fuu kinda goes over what stealth kinda impacts on each of the specs and what it kinda does in terms of rotation/combat. but he doesnt fully cover and differentiate them. if you have questions later on, feel free to ask

restive marsh
#

Will do, thanks!

silk bane
restive marsh
#

Oh thanks! That's very helpful

glass hemlock
#

restealth is probably the most frustrating part about assa imo, sometimes tank chain pulls to hard, meld -> stealth doesn't work properly etc

limber lion
#

Not that it matters that much

#

!restealth

glass hemlock
#

i hope something loads when you do that because i am interested in reading it

#

haha

limber lion
#

Moroes is sleeping

#

!restealth

prisma monolithBOT
#

Explanation of why restealths aren't as important as you might think:

  • 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
  • You can add in some sanguine/rupture value from carnage, but chaining allows for higher uptime and smoother energy overall, eliminating a lot of ramp at the start of a pull
  • This is compounded by the fact that you simply do not lose that many restealths (chain heavy spiteful weeks are only about -30% on stealths)
  • You still have vanish and shadow dance, which gives you MANY options to get your stealth effects
  • This has been supported by logs and by simulations, for many years
limber lion
#

There you go

glass hemlock
#

yeah i think my issue is i'm so used to being in stealth for opener, using vanish/dance when i'm not doing my big CD's feels awkward for my brain

restive marsh
#

When I'm focusing on just a single boss do I still use crimson tempest as an extra bleed to upkeep? or is there some reason not to?

limber lion
#

No

#

You only use CT on 4+ targets

glass hemlock
#

CT is 4+ i think

#

:>

#

ST is just chaining envenom at 1 second remaining outside of CD's. and spamming envenom during CD's.

restive marsh
#

makes sense

glass hemlock
#

only if you have 4 set obviously.

thin estuary
#

I am guessing the serated blades for 15+ keys right?

glass hemlock
#

as far as i know, arterial shock build for under 15ish. and the dragon tempered blades build for over

#

the DTB build that lets you have 4 poisons

thin estuary
#

Oh yah not sure where I got the serated blades from

#

Alright then, thanks!

misty holly
#

Was real surprised to look through my details after shuffle rounds and see CT as my top damaging ability once I got comfortable using it

limber lion
#

A 4p Spatter Envenom simply just does more damage

misty holly
#

That could be the difference, no 4p, and envenom isn't a priority move

silk bane
#

in pvp

restive marsh
#

Thanks for all the tips gamers everything is already feeling a lot better 😁

robust jasper
#

if nightstalker snapshots, does getting a rupture off during your shadow dance matter at all? Or is ruptures damage too low for it to matter and is just getting more envenoms worth more?

ocean oyster
#

Why do i see zerocool constantly go for 6cp envenoms when he has 4cp already?

tacit charm
#

6cp does more damage kekdog

tacit charm
ocean oyster
#

So we shud be going for 6cp envenoms?

tacit charm
#

Over 4cp yes

ocean oyster
#

wtf

robust jasper
#

the guide def says envenom at 4+ so idk

ocean oyster
#

yeah

robust jasper
#

and the sim def envenoms at 4

ocean oyster
#

Unless i am reading it wrong

#

Like only 4+ when refreshing poison

tacit charm
#

I think it’s 4+ in stealth? Not sure :/

ocean oyster
#

but otherwise 6

robust jasper
#

its 4+ always

#

^

ocean oyster
#

but zerocool constantly goes for 6 idk

tacit charm
#

It’s not always 4+ I know that

ocean oyster
#

its 5+ before kingsbane

#

But otherwise 4+ is what ive been doing

tacit charm
#

I’m pretty sure you only go for 4 when you are trying to refresh tier piece is the main thing,

tacit charm
ocean oyster
#

thats the only way i can make sense of this

#

He does it for ST

robust jasper
#

everywhere else its 4+

tacit charm
#

Idk I’ve never finished kn 4, always 5 or 6

robust jasper
#

I think youre losing a lot of 4 set value by holding until 5 or 6

noble hawk
#

How is zerocool even doing so much dmg dracthyr_blob_sweat

disclaimer: never played assa before

tacit charm
robust jasper
#

and the 4 set proc damage doesnt scale off cps afaik

#

only reason you do 5+ before deathmark/kingsbane is for increased buff duration

ocean oyster
#

idk i think ill just ask him when hes on

robust jasper
#

since youre spending other globals doing stuff

#

outside of that for envenom chains which lean into value of 4 set, its just optimizing number of envenoms/value

tacit charm
#

Ngl I didn’t know that

robust jasper
#

I mean dont quote me but it doesnt read that it does

#

and that would make sense why the sim/guide says 4+

shy pecan
#

You finish on 4+.

tacit charm
#

That would make total sense then yea, just so that you get more procs

glass hemlock
#

!wa

ocean oyster
#

yeah actually i see him finish 4+ sometimes I think hes just looking at something else and does 2 mutilates

shy pecan
#

What a streamer does doesn't necessarily mean always it's the correct play.

ocean oyster
#

Yeah was just wondering if I could be doing something wrong

tacit charm
#

Like o was doing a +8 trying out sin and stuff was dying too fast for me to actually ramp

noble hawk
#

But damn, outdps'ing priests and shit kekdog

robust jasper
#

lot of bad sps out there lol

tacit charm
#

Ye it’s still insane

glass hemlock
#

^

robust jasper
#

also consider hes probably getting the SPs PI

tacit charm
#

He def is

robust jasper
#

but yeah sp should def still beat assa

ocean oyster
#

He does get beat by good SPs

robust jasper
#

nothing really competes with SPs in big pulls

#

they have linear scaling aoe dps

#

and above a certain target count your void form is effectively infinite

#

I regularly get 1 and a half minute void forms lol

#

its comically broken

noble hawk
#

Is sin target capped?

robust jasper
#

soft capped

noble hawk
#

Damn, what a life Surebud

robust jasper
#

p much every spec is soft capped

noble hawk
#

Time to actually keep off-gear to fuck around and find out

robust jasper
#

be glad you arent outlaw

noble hawk
#

I am outlaw

robust jasper
#

same

#

lol

noble hawk
robust jasper
#

lololol

#

assa refuge for pvp purposes

noble hawk
#

Never been a friend of DoTs so never bothered, time to actually think about assa

#

As long as I dont need to play sub Surebud

robust jasper
#

its reasonably compelling

#

rotation is pretty formulaic but its rewarding to do right and kingsbane is just a fun button to juice up

noble hawk
#

Completely different stats & weapons, nvm, gotta wait a while that idea xD

shy pecan
#

Stats don't matter for sin

noble hawk
#

Kinda surprised, but nice I figure

shy pecan
#

If you want to use your outlaw gear for it, it's fine. It won't make as big of a deal as you might thing.

noble hawk
#

Murloc was saying 81% Mastery, was faaar off xD

shy pecan
#

Don't use data aggregation sites to determine your gear and stats. Use sims.

noble hawk
#

Since I am at work, I used it to get a rough overview about the average itemization of the specc

shy pecan
#

Even then, that can be deceiving.

#

Like the only two things that you might be able to get out of it are the embellishments (double BSL) and likely trinkets (Ashes with whatever on-use). Everything else is depending on what gear you can get.

noble hawk

but then you wouldnt get into groups for 15's unless you were already 527+

now, i know when we are outside CD's we use envenom when time remaining is at 1 second. do you guys use the time in between envenoms to keep bleeds up on enemies etc?

slate crown
#

You can if bleeds are falling, yes

#

during the in between you are applying bleeds when appropriate, building up combo points for your next envenom

#

Then when more time is remaining before 1 sec, you just wait

yeah okay thats what i am doing so just wanted to make sure i wans't missing something fundamental

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

At this point I’m concerned that like

#

Talents won’t even function

primal jolt
#

i mean maybe they delay it? hero talents are a big deal

#

or disable hero talents for the first month of the game?

balmy condor
#

Too late to delay it im pretty sure

#

Disabling would be too drastic

#

It’s just gonna be Dragonflight again

#

Release some whack shit and then “after listening to feedback we’re bringing some changes…” 4 months in

#

Think about all the class trees that were just horrid on release

#

They recognized 3 point nodes sucked at the end of beta

#

And it took until 10.2 to get rid of them

#

They just have this self-fulfilling prophecy of making something, realizing it’s kinda problematic, and then not having enough time to fix it

#

So then we limp into a patch

#

And its problematic

#

So 2-3 gets fixed every patch

#

And some class gets stuck with the short stick and has to wait

normal mist
primal jolt
#

the harsh truth is, we are irelevant least played class

#

paladin is ready to go

#

and so are other popular classes

#

I'll be greatful if they don't delay the fixes too long for rogue

balmy condor
#

Ye I can’t really blame them for it either but it’s just a feedback loop

primal jolt
#

im honestly tired of complaining

balmy condor
#

Me too man

primal jolt
#

idk if they even read any of the forums or anything

balmy condor
#

Deathstalker drained me

primal jolt
#

i mean makes me happy to see the changes

#

yeah same here

balmy condor
#

Flensing knives deleted and the only thing I feel is relief

#

And then dread cause there’s like 5 other talents that need help

primal jolt
#

i was literally rerolling for two weeks trying to find peace but im back again since i dont enjoy anything else

#

nothing left but to keep complaining and praying someone reads something

#

and it doesn't help that theres like 3k rogues complaining vs thousands of others

#

even if they read shit we're just overshadowed anyway

balmy condor
#

Ye

#

Just small community

primal jolt
#

i mean theres a reason elemental shaman is like the biggest piece of shit ever

#

no one plays it unless its fotm

#

and that's extremely rare to begin with

#

i played elemental most of my life and just gave up

balmy condor
#

Corrigan foaming at the mouth cause he knows it’s true

#

But yeah at some point it’s a self fulfilling prophecy

#

Like you push the smallest communities to the bottom so you’re stuck keeping them at the bottom and they lose players cause it’s always underplayed and mid

#

Cycle over and over

primal jolt
#

like its just so infuriating to me, dont they ever look at the rogue player base numbers

#

and be like

#

damn

#

that's 0.001 of the players

#

i wonder why

#

like the class is impossible to pick up for new players, and there's a reason casuals don't play it

balmy condor
#

It’s insanely confusing for new players but the work needed to untangle the whole thing is just insurmountable at this point

primal jolt
#

with the current state of hero talents i wouldn't be surprised if rouge would just leak whatever its left of it

#

of the players

grim jay
primal jolt
#

that's how it feels

grim jay
#

They just take the feedback good vs bad and adjust time how they see fit

#

And especially only towards stuff they feel like it could be different

primal jolt
#

but like how can paladin get literally protagonist tier changes

#

every week

#

quality of life changes one after another

#

and my fucking kingsbane gets parried by razageth

#

like ????

#

i will never stop being mad at parry in fucking 2024

#

its not fucking classic wow

grim jay
primal jolt
#

last time i checked there isn't any other class that can get a big cd parried like rogue

grim jay

#

But parry is mostly a skill issue tbf

#

As you can just position yourself correctly if you know its there

primal jolt
#

it makes you sound like you're defending blizzard

grim jay

primal jolt
#

also another hot take i think tea should have never been a thing

royal lantern
#

its also why the class has so many wrong understandings/opinions

when you see a class that has quiet a few stealth based talents and many of them are played, can you really blame them for thinking that stealth is giga important and everyone that says "yeha its good but not THAT big overall" is trolling a bit?

primal jolt
#

its a stupid concept

lavish pine
#

Rogue are confusing indeed but if you always played rogue then it's super hard changing. I've been searching for a Alt and no other class feels for fun me...

royal lantern
grim jay
royal lantern
#

like, look at Outlaw

you cant tell me that somebody can pick up outlaw and knows how to play it properly by themself

grim jay
#

But they even managed to tangle a low button spec like fire up with talents where you dont intuitively know how to do stuff

primal jolt
#

any class that requires you to have weakauras to play optimally is a shit class and bad game design

royal lantern
#

eeeeeeehhhh

#

thats a take

primal jolt
#

it shouldn't be a thing

#

exactly

royal lantern
#

cus like, any class with more then 1 dot and 1 buff window is that

grim jay
#

But you dont REQUIRE them tho

#

Its just easier

primal jolt
#

i mean you dont

#

but it makes your life 10 times easier

grim jay
#

Which is what WAs are for in the first place tho

primal jolt
#

and i find that honestly insane

#

that the game is in such a state at all

grim jay
#

Only having specs where WAs do nothing will bring forth even more bm hunters

#

Or rets

#

Or furys

primal jolt
#

i don't understand how can you call shit game design skill issue to begin with

grim jay
#

At this point

grim jay
primal jolt
#

i honestly dont care, it requires barely any effort to fix aswell:)

grim jay
#

Should it be a thing? No. Is it big enough to get worked up? No. Can you avoid it? Yes.

grim jay
#

They said they want to keep it

primal jolt
#

because they dont care

grim jay
#

No they said its part of what they wanna have

#

Thats not the same as not caring

primal jolt
#

as if anyone even played this class

#

at blizzard

grim jay
#

Its still not exclusively rogue getting parried

primal jolt
#

you know what you're right.

#

we dont deserve anything anyway

grim jay
#

A realist

#

Its their game, if they want it to be a part for whatever reason (despite everything) and I can avoid it without much effort, why get worked up?

#

You cant change it anyways if they actively said they wanna keep it even with all the feedback

grim jay
#

So I dont get the difficulty discussion

#

Most of the time

#

Take mage for example as a popular class, arcane is an abomination if it comes to buttons and getting what do, frost isnt really intuitive (f.e. Shatter) albeit being easy and fire is also weird with many things basically since skb is a talent

#

And people suck

#

There is not one other class that people suck as much on and still play it

#

There are 3.4k+ rio fire mages that literally do tankdamage

Otherwise he would surely press it

#

Link

#

A video or something

steady owl
#

Personally i feel like blizzard allowing addons and wa's is why the gameplay is as fun and interesting as it is. I feel like without out it, it would still be closer to vanilla wow. Us being able to create ways to track all kinds of debuffs, procs and buffs in the game has given them way more room to make fun interractions between spells and its a better product for it. If you look at the ffxiv ui all the stuff they added to it recently has been things that players were already using addons for anyway but against the tos, cus the players know what they want and could be improved but the devs are way less people and dont think of it, but in wow were all kinda influencing the development of the game with what we do with addons.

nimble zinc
subtle tundra
limber lion
# undone tinsel he does

Alright just looked at his most recent AA video and he fails to put CT up with the first adds until all the adds are almost dead, which is just a missplay.

#

He should definitely put CT up much earlier

#

This is when he applies CT the first time which is just incorrect play.

vestal wren
spice surge
#

Its just the "We dont need damage to adds, rather have more damage to the boss"

limber lion
#

He probably just goes full single target dam on boss

#

Yeh

spice surge
#

For max personal damage you would 100% ct

#

Not sure how big the difference is in pure singletarget ct at 5+ vs envenom

nimble zinc
#

Yeah I always CT the adds right away and then caustic splatter

undone tinsel
#

ah okay

#

yea i was watching his tyra week

#

makes sense if he is prio boss then

limber lion
#

He's probably playing the cleave build without CT

undone tinsel
#

ooo okay. yea prob not here. ok nvm then ty

limber lion
#

Instead of destroying them, they embrace them and accept them as part of their game now.

Private Auras vomitpepe

limber lion

Sometimes they still (try to) make encounters and abilities not trackable with WeakAuras and sometimes they do a good job at it, sometimes not so much

#

Like the Among Us mechanic on Lords of Dread

vestal wren
#

the among us mechanic was poorly designed to begin with

slate crown
# steady owl Personally i feel like blizzard allowing addons and wa's is why the gameplay is ...

It's a forever back and forth etc etc, you know the song and dance. It's also not a strict allow/not allow, it has a gradient.

I think overall this game is better off for it. There some things that are removed from this game because of them existing (tighter UI control and design from the game developers rather than players, and how that can play into the overall game experience) but those are things I don't need in this game for myself, there are other games to get that experience.

It's also hard to separate the personal benefit for me, the amount of learning / growth / energy I've been able to gather for myself by being able to make WA stuff is huge, this is less of an overall playerbase benefit but for addon / WA authors it is a great outlet. It's almost more of the "gameplay" for me at different phases of the game's seasonal cycle

nimble zinc
#

I think i might be attending a mythic raid again later this week. What's the best build for Primal Council? Cleave w/ IC and CT (but no iron wire) ?

grim jay
#

The shock one

#

But that not the best option

#

Wait a sec

nimble zinc
grim jay
#

That without iw

#

Which you should probably move to increased weapon poison dmg

nimble zinc
#

wait, you're taking tiny toxic blade?

limber lion
#

Definitely instead of Blindside because you're not using Mutilate ever so it's a completely dead talent

#

Also should probably take the Fan of Knives talent for the increased range if you care about that

#

Venom Rush ain't doing much at all either

#

Both pretty much dead talents, Venom Rush gains like 2s of use when the other bosses die and you have to Mutilate once or twice lol

grim jay
#

Well for applying caustic

#

But I didnt see much value in the other choice either

#

Which is why I didnt change

#

But I also forgot to swap off of iw

#

Because im a goofball

nimble zinc
#

so this

grim jay
#

Yeah

limber lion
#

No

#

Improved Poisons instead of Fatal Concoction

grim jay
limber lion
#

Otherwise looks fine

limber lion
# grim jay Hu really?

Improved Poisons is a lot better because it directly contributes to how much damage your Kingsbane + Spatter does

#

Fatal Conc only increases the damage of Deadly/Amp poison

#

We pretty much only take Fatal Conc if we have to path to Amp Poison

#

Otherwise you never really want to take it

#

But the robot is always correct, so if it tells you to take it for some ungodly reason, then you take it

#

But it probably won't. Or it's marginal.

grim jay
#

Mh yeah I guess. I dont have any sims on that since I usually dont take that boss serious anyways

#

But he should sim then

limber lion
#

Nah

#

No need
