balmy condor

where if a party member enters combat within like 30 yards you get put in as well

It's just positioning and a matter of practice

brother I spend like 1000 dollars a year to fly halfway across the planet away from my gf and my friends and my hobbies so that I can get called slurs and hurt myself doing physical labor the once a year

if you cant get restealths between pulls in m+, just stand in shit. you either die, getting a free restealth, or youll die and the group has to stop to rez you, or the healer has to pump all his mana into you, at which point the tank is going to stop pulling for healer mana. or he doesnt, you wipe, and you get a restealth.

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 which gives you plenty of options to get your stealth effects
  • This has been supported by logs and by simulations, for many years

@balmy condor Do you have anywhere written why the second vanish is not picked for any talent build ?
Or is it just worse by sims?

literally 4 points that provide nothing

It's not double vanishes

Nothing else

#

This is useless

limber lion
#

It sure is

normal mist
#

you understand 1+1

marble hemlock
#

id argue that theres some value to the vanish node, because you sometimes didnt vanish on CD for one reason or another, so it ends up being more than 1 gain (and potentially double boss-mechanic-avoidance on shit like rezan fixate, which has high value too), but its still not worth for 3 points

I put a point into soothing darkness, I am one step closer to death
I put a point into subterfuge, it does nothing, I am at peace
I put a point into subterfuge, it still does nothing, the weight of the universe bears upon me
I put a point into without a trace, and like it, my existence is meaningless amongst the cosmos as my soul is ground to dust and returned to whence it came

with IC, not using vanish on CD was also just value to still get IC during chains, but sometimes that meant sitting on it for 15+ seconds. it adds up, but its not a big gain either way

i basically didnt consider vanish a DPS CD since, like, early SL

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 which gives you plenty of options to get your stealth effects
  • This has been supported by logs and by simulations, for many years

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

god damn Moroes nyan is getting a workout today 🫡

i have to admit im impressed by the number of pin readers

perhaps my expectations were too low

heavy sentinel
#

Random question. I’d guess no but does atrophic stack with two rogues hitting a boss?

haughty flicker
#

actually apparently it does

heavy sentinel
#

Sick is it gunna be worth to prog with two rogues then?

limber lion
#

It shouldn't stack, no

#

But yeh

#

Go ham

#

Or maybe it should

#

You never know with Blizz

haughty flicker

whispyr said earlier it does

#

thats all i know of it though

limber lion

Yeye it does

#

But just saying it probably shouldn't

haughty flicker
#

oh you mean it does but shouldnt ye

limber lion
#

It's the only raid buff that does

#

Windfury is raid wide as well now

haughty flicker
#

yeah i never wouldve thought it stacked, definitely feels like a bug

Boss does no dam and then suddenly oneshots everyone

Because Atrophic doesn't reduce environmental damage

does anyone kno if the prepatch even next ween will let us get catchup gear for alots and also level fast for toons thta arent 70 ?

runic helm

Are datamined changed actually changing garrote/rupture? Doesn't show what the % used to be

#

wait mousing over it makes it look like they jsut made us get rupture at level 13 instead of 17 lol

glass hemlock

#

Lmao garrote 11 rupture 13, honestly very good changes for leveling but not what 90% of people care about

98%

so its just changes for lvlup?

ya at least from the datamining

Yay. Tuning. Shadowheart is still a thing

thats something

I mean tuning was always going to be a thing, nothing to be surprised or anything about

does anyone kno if prepatche ven will give faster leveling for alts that arent 70 yet or is it just for gear a few expansions ago u leveled fast for prepatch events ?

tuning means that no more big changes though typically right?

not sure if this is true tho

i haventplayed beta

But we'll live, we are far from perfect, but we'll be fine

We do need iteration down the line hopefully

also what is the fastest way to level besides remx, cause remix is only fast if u did first play through with i never did

fleet pagoda

#

at least middle of the pack right?

nbd ?

i mean im used to being lower, and im not a high end pushing CE guild, just getting CE is sufficient

peeposhrug still tuning to be done. wouldn't fret about the numbers right now

None of what I was saying was about DPS numbers

fair, i just prefer sin rogue to the other two, and just kind of curious if sin is trolling in that regard or not

fleet pagoda

#

does anyone kno the fastest way to level my alts to get them rdy for the new expansion. i have toons i wanna play at level 60 i need to get them to 70 fast

#

i never played remix. so that wont be an option for me since first play threw is slow

raven egret

just doing the DF main story is pretty quick, if they're at 60

Rogue is not new player friendly at the very least

okay thank you for the info, and ive consistently played rogue every tier but as an alt/for fun so i understand the rotation but will read up more

I like rogue but i dont wanna invest more time if we are going to be shit

#

i could be wrong but even this expansion season 4 i felt so many dps were way ahead of us

#

maybe just because they were rnaged and pallys

odnt think we'll be 'shit' its just uninspired

will our dmg be competative tho

idk about we, but you're asking questions that have no answer

also depends on what content

You are asking an impossible question you know, all we can tell you is we're still fully functional, no reason to believe we can't be good. Rest hinges on tuning

No idea how you're getting gapped

I tested something like 15 specs today and was surprised at how fluid and pleasant it was to play assassination without Shadow dance. I'm a big fan of ER and am happy to see it back in the rotation. The addition of spike is great too.

I thought I was going to main elemental but I feel pulled to assassination because it's just plainfun.

If you pug a lot its important cause if ppl think ur class sucks ur gonna waste a ton of time looking for grp

Also shadow dance was awkward af for sin

Because you and 100 other dps are vying for that spot

i hate pugging with aug if i dont know for sure the other dps player is good

because if he sucks

I think I summed up shadowheart very well here

Yeah

#

also i hate pug mages

The worst

waxen oyster

95% of them do tank damage

I've literally never been putting together a group and thought "we really need a mage"
