I like its visual effect tho

#

cosmic damage

balmy condor
#

what'

rotund oak
#

deathstalker is much more interesting to me,i like it more but fatebound is solid as well

#

does dmg

thorn crater
#

i dno deathstalker makes sense in my mind

waxen oyster
#

I guess you if you have downtime

#

and 5+ points to send on snd

#

you can snd to preserve high coin stacks

#

maybe?

thorn crater
#

its like reapplying poison/bleeds on a target to deal more dmg

tropic tundra
#

maybe(maybe)

balmy condor
tropic tundra
#

wait really, I saw that purple-blue-ish explosions

#

was it the new trinket

thorn crater
#

nerute sent here from DHcord to trigger whispyr im callling it noow

whole sand
#

they didn't have the budget for that

thorn crater
#

LUL

tropic tundra
#

that really sucks

brisk plank
#

so deathstalkers mark never completely disappears after the first application with ambush? you dont ever have to reapply it using ambush from stealth on next packs etc?

shy pecan
#

The voices were telling me that there were visuals for tails

balmy condor

Do I need to always be in stealth to apply a Deathstalker Mark?

  • Only the initial application. Darkest Night reapplies and will be the majority of your applications
    Echoing Reprimand....
  • Yes, Echoing Reprimand doesn't interact with the Mark / Darkest Night, this is one of the biggest bugs still plaguing Deathstalker as a whole
  • Until it is fixed, you would want to run 2/2 Lethality and still put 1 point into Echoing Reprimand
    But the 3rd cp or something?
  • Correct, there has been a newly found... bug? interaction? With the Mark and Echoing Reprimand. It requires you to have your 3rd combo point be animacharged, the Mark be applied from Darkest Night, and then consuming the animacharge with Envenom. Should all those conditions be met, it will consume a stack of the Mark as intended.
    Does Blizzard know?
  • There is no way they don't know. This has been mass reported, screamed from the rooftops, highlighted in every wowhead article, youtube video, forum post and stream since Deathstalker was revealed in alpha. The only thing we can do is keep reporting the bug through the in-game report, making noise on forums, and waiting.
waxen oyster
#

I mean you can track coin stacks

#

if you wanna get sad

#

when you have 8+ and flip the other

tropic tundra
#

something like fyralath drop chance tracker

waxen oyster
#

Like it doesnt impact your gameplay

#

it just makes your mood worse

whole sand
#

is it not worth tracking for double jeopardy? or is that a waste of a vanish

nimble tartan
#

when u say run 2/2 lethality does that mean just dropping resounding clarity..

balmy condor
#

so

#

idk

#

what would you get out of tracking double jeopardy

nimble tartan
#

tyy

whole sand
#

yeah, no you're right, its literally pointless

fresh coyote
#

Whispyr, sorry to bug you again (and if this is a stupid question), but in your non burst windows (M+), do you just have to keep rupture on 5+ targets, Crimson Tempest up and Envenom the extra cbs and that's virtually it?

whole sand
#

what a hero talent

tropic tundra
#

if you get that feeling, go check out wildstalker

grim jay
balmy condor
#

you wanna garrote at minimum your caustic target obviously

#

but yeh, you got it

fresh coyote
#

Garrote on one target for Caustic, yeah, but you odn't need to try garrote every target, 6 seconds at a time, no? Haha

balmy condor
#

no

fresh coyote
#

Okay, thank you!!

balmy condor
#

the unempowered garrotes

#

are pretty meh

#

you'd only cast them if you SUPER need the energy

#

but with 5 ruptures and your main target garrote

#

you shouldn't really need it

waxen oyster
#

at least ruptures give scent

balmy condor
#

yeh sims don't bother with rupture after scent cap

fresh coyote
#

Ah yeah, okay! So garrote on main with rupture on same target + 4 others and should be fine.

#

Crim is also prio, right?

balmy condor
#

with deathstalker I guess yeah

#

I haven't really looked into hyperoptimizing prio yet

#

was waiting on tuning to be done

fresh coyote
#

That's fair. It is very early in the expan. ๐Ÿ˜… What you've done so far has been super helpful, btw!

balmy condor
#

sanguine blades not working with singular focus for example is a bit rough

#

that'll potentially change priority damage values

#

also singular focus working with mastery and such

#

lots of variables in taht regard

fresh coyote
#

Sounds complex asf; ngl. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

To figure it all out, that is

balmy condor
#

it's a bit finnicky

fallen arch
#

Make sb great again

grim jay
sharp trellis
#

I know it's could be a little bit too early but any good weak aura recommendation with update tracking of kingsbane and capstone ?

spring socket
#

whispyrs pack is aight at the moment

balmy condor
#

just aight

spring socket
#

ive had better

#

had worse aswell

grim jay
#

Brother just woke up

#

And chose violence

spring socket
#

he he was catching up and reading about echo had me chuckling

grim jay
spring socket
#

i use it i need all help i can get

balmy condor
#

double the size of my wa

#

got it

grim jay
#

Even tho I stole liss's darkest night Cp thingy

cinder grotto
#

!wa

balmy condor
#

lis has some weird darkest night tech?

grim jay
balmy condor
#

hm

grim jay
#

Like anima charged, only purple

spring socket
#

hope they fix it soon

balmy condor
#

that's a reasonable idea

#

I could do that

spring socket
#

wish we had more visuals for the hero talents their a bit meh

grim jay
#

I think its pretty good, actually better than a separate buff symbol imo, because I personally look at my Cp anyways

royal lantern
shy pecan
#

Whoa

balmy condor
shy pecan
spring socket
#

got weird

balmy condor
#

tryan likes his femboys thick

royal lantern
#

its monday and i had ~4hours sleep, the takes will be more stupid then ussual

royal lantern
#

not really

shy pecan
royal lantern
grim jay
#

The takes will th ussual

#

That was cooked brother

manic coral
#

Whispyr do you know when will you have time to release the m+ guide on youtube? RHlove

balmy condor
#

tomorrow

manic coral
#

oh nice, thank you

spring socket
#

so we r dropping resounding Clarity for x2 lethality

#

?

balmy condor
#

ye

grim jay
#

So he can see some actual Art

rotund oak

๐Ÿ’€

balmy condor

sharp trellis
#

Just got Whispyr WA . How can i desactivate the deathstalker mark while Capstone is actif ?

grim jay
#

I got hit with some m+ andy takes yesterday and it wasnt fun

#

So I gotta give smth back to the community

rotund oak
#

else deactivate from spec specific display

grim jay
#

I mean its not wrong for it to show. It just means you need to apply marks

rotund oak
#

yeah 10/10 but the man asked..

#

whispyr plater is godmode btw

#

high value to just not use

sharp trellis
spring socket
#

it doesnt

balmy condor
#

my wa specifically hides the mark when capstone is active

rotund oak
#

u can create a condition

balmy condor
#

that's something I added

spring socket
#

yeah just checked it doesnt

#

just shows the cap

rotund oak
#

why is the man asking

sharp trellis
rotund oak
#

am i missing something

balmy condor
#

yes

grim jay
#

@balmy condor as an m+ andy take connoisseur, how cooked would you say is the take that BP on sub is padding and every sub was padding in every dungeon, so its really good that BP sucks for aoe? PogO

balmy condor
grim jay
#

Imagine, every class can do aoe, but if a rogue does it its padding. Guess why? Because we can funnel peepoguns

balmy condor
#

I mean look

#

I get that aoe sometimes is padding

#

like in raid fights with a boss and adds

full summit
#

which aoe is simming higher atm>

balmy condor
#

that often is pad

full summit
#

am i dumb theres only 1 aoe hahaha

balmy condor
#

but like, it's m+

full summit
#

(im losing my fucking mind)

balmy condor
#

1 aoe?

keen spruce
full summit
#

on wowhead the build

#

im losing my mind

#

ignore me

sharp trellis
spring socket
#

thats not his

#

!wa

balmy condor
#

yeh that is for sure not mine

grim jay
# balmy condor but like, it's m+

I think its that degeneracy that people think rogue = giga funnel and ever mob in a pack needs to die at the same time, which is the rogues job kekdog

balmy condor
#

the energy/combo point bar

#

looks nothing like that

#

that's edited

#

but regardless

#

you can add a condition if you don't want to see that

grim jay
#

Dont listen to Whispyr
You cant add conditions, you must use his WA

#

Jokes aside, I would if they are already similar

sharp trellis
grim jay
#

And whispyrs gets updated frequently

waxen oyster
#

oh @balmy condor the raid build on the talents page still has sanguine blades

#

compared to the "quick" one that has vicious venoms

hot fulcrum
#

Want to clarify small question.
I have a darkest night proc and I'm going into boss fight. So I have 2 options: Consume proc or just simply start with ambush since I have stealth available.
Both will apply mark (our main goal). But is there any difference? Should I consume proc for some reason as prio over just ambush?

spring socket
#

depends how many cps going into fight surely

grim jay
#

Also using a dead skill

#

(ambush)

hot fulcrum
cunning needle
spring socket
grim jay
#

If you have it

grim jay
#

More often than not its other people wanting to "pad"

#

So they dont want you to steal their dmg

hot fulcrum
#

Last but not least.
If I have a proc and apply marks with ambush will it remove proc buff? Or it will remain even I've already have marks applied from ambush?

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

Problem is

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

one streamer says it

#

and the sheep follow

#

Streaming is a terrible thing

grim jay
cunning needle
#

streamers suck

#

imagine streaming

#

wouldnt be anyone here

runic hinge
#

I won't imagine it

grim jay
#

The amount of bad takes from m+ streamers is wild

#

And people follow them religiously

cunning needle
#

itspushweek.mp4

waxen oyster
#

Well

#

streaming wow in general

#

is pretty cooked

tropic tundra
#

how about watching wow stream

waxen oyster
#

probably one of the worst games if you want to make a viewership streaming

tropic tundra
#

its my best way to fall asleep

waxen oyster
#

worse honestly

grim jay
#

One heal in my guild is so down bad, I wouldnt even be surprised if he had a Dorki pillow

waxen oyster
#

why dorki

tropic tundra
waxen oyster
#

thought healers jerked off automaticjak

cunning needle
#

like you try and watch some wow pvp championships

#

and youre just watching dudes run around with shitty animations happening

#

and running behind pillars

waxen oyster
#

pretty sure wow pvp

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

doesnt even get above 3 digits

#

in viewers

cunning needle
#

yeah

grim jay
cunning needle
#

pikaboo gets a few thousand but he's acutally entertaining

grim jay
#

On average it wont

waxen oyster
#

pika is a personality more than player

#

hes good but hes effectively dunking on people

#

at the bottom of the ladder

cunning needle
#

somehow made smurfing enjoyable to watch

rotund oak
#

i think only one class can do that now,its the mage

waxen oyster
#

i heard hes tried multiclassing lately

#

he used to get memed for being an otp where his team tries to play other classes

#

then proceed to get 3-0ed in 1 minute games.

rotund oak
#

thats the funnel

cunning needle
#

shadow focus?

rotund oak
#

what

grim jay
#

They literally mean stuff like

#

Fok/storm - > evis/env

#

Instead of bp

#

Or whatever one could rather invest in St

waxen oyster
#

The problem is the playerbase see niche scenarios that the top 1% players do

#

and think it applies to their

#

last month CE guild strat

grim jay
#

But its m+

#

There is no CE

waxen oyster
#

oh m+ is worse

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

because you know these mfs be doing weekly vaults

#

or at best 1-2 key levels above

keen spruce
grim jay
#

The issues usually come from those with high rio tho

#

(which they mainly have bcs of time investment in those cases)

waxen oyster
#

Here's the thing though

#

Is rio really an indicator of skill

#

or time spent

#

Because there's alot of good players who don't care for it.

cunning needle
#

both

grim jay
#

There are some that guaranteed are only as high as they are bcs they do 20 keys a day

cunning needle
#

honestly raiding is also a bit like that as well

waxen oyster
#

Raiding you can go by pull counts etc

cunning needle
#

just throw time against the wall

waxen oyster
#

But then it often comes with an officer core

cunning needle
#

and hope your raid team doesnt implode

waxen oyster
#

that preps alot outside

terse orchid
silver otter
cunning needle
#

yeah i take that back acutally

#

sometimes no amount of pull counts help

cerulean nest
#

yo that poison pact ring looks nuts

balmy condor
#

it's like 1.2% dps or something

#

basically copy paste eranog ring with a different coat of paint

cerulean nest
#

yo that poison pact ring looks alright

waxen oyster
#

I think that's the thing though

#

roster boss is usually an issue for mid tier guilds

#

While higher guilds typically dont have issues

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

It's kind of a catch 22 in guilds, if you don't have a proven record it's hard to reliably recruit good players.

grim jay
#

Some years ago everyone did just fine with 20-22

waxen oyster
#

Really?

#

I've seen guilds not allow more than 2-3 unannounced absences per tier.

grim jay
#

I mean thats pretty basic but

waxen oyster
#

I can see people overrecruit on expac launches

grim jay
#

What if people just announce they arent there and it happens often

cerulean nest
grim jay
#

Its still - 1

terse orchid
#

They should just remove mythic lockout

waxen oyster
#

due to people drop out in the first month due to new expac copium

balmy condor
cerulean nest
#

tight

waxen oyster
#

That's also a thing tbh, better guilds will often not have a shortage of recruits

#

or possible

spring socket
#

any 1 know on plater i like using the special buffs for my bleeds, is their a way i can get it highlighted to show improved garote ?

wanton depot
#

yo about to sub tomorrow for the first time in like 15 months. Quick question, best spec for m+ and raid?

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

Oh im talking moreso like

#

top 50/100

grim jay
#

Yeah alright, aint much of an issue there

waxen oyster
#

yeah like generally higher guilds its a non issue because

#

people value their spots

lapis coral
waxen oyster
#

i'd say its hard to run big rosters and keep very good players

#

since often those people want to see more playtime

cunning needle
grim jay
waxen oyster
#

oh for sure

cunning needle
waxen oyster
#

and accounting for if you have people quit due to irl

#

which often happens in longer standing guilds due to people getting older and more responsibilities

grim jay
#

What I personally found interesting is the player difference between a 2 day guild and a 3 day guild at roughly the same WR

waxen oyster
#

2 day usually requires better players because you have less hours

#

imo

grim jay
#

Which in turn also means you gotta be a "better" player if your schedule allows only 2 days and you wanna improve

cursive sparrow
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
cunning needle
#

2 day raiding is so comfy

#

fuck 3 day raiding. i could never go back

cursive sparrow
#

do we have fuu's chart this patch?

#

that is a super helpful source

waxen oyster
#

I feel the good teams that do that schedule are shrinking.

cunning needle
#

my guy the game is not even officially out yet

grim jay
#

Bcs of fixes etc

wanton depot
#

it matters though

balmy condor
#

but imagine

#

I could know what bis is

cursive sparrow
#

wait unstil everything settle?

balmy condor
#

so that I can never get bis

balmy condor
#

SUPER good

#

very helpful

waxen oyster
#

i mean if you slide whispyr some $$$ maybe he'll do some inaccurate in 2 weeks sims

#

/j

cunning needle
#

imagine if one of the guide writers said X crafting gear is BiS because that's the one they decided to specalise in

#

would be funny

waxen oyster
#

set up the EA sim patreon

grim jay
royal lantern
cunning needle
balmy condor
#

give me twitch prime and I'll give you some rancid bis profiles that you can stare at for hours and get nothing of value from

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

twitch prime sounds too cheap

#

esp with how some people charge that for their ui

#

which they took from someone else

cunning needle
#

gimmie garbage bis profiles pls

#

i need something to gaslamp people with

cerulean nest
#

sims want me keeping s4 2set but dropping 4set

#

interesting

cunning needle
#

i knew i should have played s4

#

its so jover

#

my parses are going to be ruined

grim jay
#

Yeah you are behind

#

For the m0 week

#

Deadge

cunning needle
#

may as well quit now

rotund oak
cerulean nest
#

burn your computer

rotund oak
#

just play diablo

waxen oyster
#

I like knowing that most of the people complaining theres nothing to do in EA

grim jay
#

I dont grind renown for the items, might aswell not do m0 at all with that loss

cunning needle
#

surely blizzard wouldnt disable tier sets on actual release

waxen oyster
#

quit in a month

cunning needle

right ๐Ÿ™‚

#

new combat potion going hard

cerulean nest
#

seeing shadowlands items in my droptomizer feels like trauma

grim jay
waxen oyster
#

"accidentally" do the sub sim with a sword offhand

#

then complain to blizz it needs buffs

cunning needle
#

taking a lesson from the warlock playbook

#

i see what you did there

grim jay
#

For your offhand

cerulean nest
#

shut your mouth

grim jay
#

And you will like it

waxen oyster
#

wont it only appear

#

if you have sl items in your bag

cerulean nest
#

what are the new combat pots called

waxen oyster
#

Money

#

Sink

grim jay
#

Hes just trying to think of something other than timewalking SL EoN

cerulean nest
#

lol I dont see them in my alchemy list unless im stupid

cunning needle
#

probably this?

cerulean nest
#

oh right

grim jay
cerulean nest
#

nah its there

#

so if you have a crit flask on, your pot gives you mast/haste/vers?

#

thats odd

waxen oyster
#

that benefits specs that like all stats

grim jay
#

Glad we do

cerulean nest
#

actually if youre using the chaos flask you'll get everything with the pot

waxen oyster
#

Oh wait that'd mean

#

outlaw gets 1/3 the pot ruined

#

nice mastery

modest gale
#

is it slow to level as assa

balmy condor
#

bout as slow as anything else I suppose

#

I was one shotting pretty much the entire way

rotund oak
slow tulip
#

hey, can i ask if someone have like a to-do / cheat sheet for what to do during the first 2 weeks - like crests etc ?

#

thx in advance

rotund oak
#

there isnt rly anything u can do bro,just farm renown,do some heroics/delves and lvl up profs

ripe carbon
slow tulip
#

thank you exs_uwu

cunning needle
#

for some actual useful info

slow tulip
cunning needle
#

there's no augment rune you need to farm

#

so renown is sorta whatever

#

you can maybe get t7 renown to buy these

#

but then also, shits so replacable its sorta who cares

rotund oak
#

u wont replace veteran gear that easily this early

#

even 3 weeks in or a month u will still have couple of veteran pieces on

balmy condor
#

that sounds not right

cunning needle
#

yeah you say that like im not gonna ultra degen m+ when it comes out on day 1

runic hinge
nova kelp
#

you can do what I did and degen your way to r9 with everyone for absolutely no raisin

rotund oak
cunning needle
#

yeah im doing all the side quests now that give rep

#

and leaving it for darkmoon faire

#

for that 10% gain

#

so i can get even more renown

#

because theres totally a ton of player power hiding behind it

runic hinge
#

Fuck the fair bro

nova kelp
#

can just do them all on side toons once the faire is up

#

warband baby

balmy condor
#

if I have veteran gear a month from now

#

I want you to shoot me in the face

cunning needle
#

yeah but if i do it now, i can just turn in next week

balmy condor
#

M+ 2-6

rotund oak

balmy condor

and any m+

#

if I have veteran gear after that

#

I'm inting

dire sparrow

#

I feel that

#

I think I'm going to be so bored of the dungeons by the time that M+ opens

rotund oak
#

u ultra degen dungeons aight?

raven egret
rotund oak
#

u craft?

raven egret
#

dungeons will be the absolute last thing I do this week, when I run out of everything else to do

cunning needle
#

dungeons give poop gear anyway right?

rotund oak
#

its not gear its VS

#

..

#

how do u climb that high

#

whats the secret

raven egret
# rotund oak how do u go that high then

3x Veteran pieces from Renown (used Weathered Crest to get those 4/8)
5x Aventurer pieces 4/8 (480)
Rest is 564 explorer until I find replacements

I am not spending any Carved crests, those will be useful in season. No use for weathered crests when season starts so, using those

rotund oak
raven egret
#

sadge in explorer daggers

rotund oak
#

u lucky mf ๐Ÿ˜„

raven egret
#

I'm not xmoging out of that, its a work of leveling beauty

rotund oak
#

that makes sense ye

#

cool stuff

grim jay
#

Like heroic dungeon spam next reset is easy gear without doing anything else (only slightly behind the annoying grind rn) , m0 daily ez gear once its open and if m+ is open and you arent nearly full heroic gear week 2 you are kinda trolling I imagine

raven egret
grim jay
#

And its pretty close then

raven egret
#

yeah my point is spending resource to upgrade explorer is kinda wasted, as opposed to waiting to get Adventurer

#

plus

#

Anyone can be kited in full explorer gear already

grim jay
#

I wouldnt upgrade anything other than stuff with whelpling until close to raid anyways, but just saying

There is no need to grind any gear rn

Read About Pooling
TLDR:Maintain max uptime on envenom

  • For Fatebound, sanguine blades is typically much better than Deathstalker. For this reason, if you can't maintain Envenom uptime anymore, you should build combo points, then reset your energy back to around 70% before maintaining again.
  • For Deathstalker, try to stay under 50% as much as possible while maxing out Envenom uptime. Single target builds play vicious venoms instead of sanguine blades as well.

The reason we do this is to maximize uptimes and use energy more efficiently for Deathstalker marks/cooldowns. Staying under 50% leads to more envenom casts, which is more Darkest Night Procs. For Fatebound, heads flips contribute damage regardless of if you're flipping or not, so this pressure to keep spending is lessened.

Do I need to always be in stealth to apply a Deathstalker Mark?

  • Only the initial application. Darkest Night reapplies and will be the majority of your applications
    Echoing Reprimand....
  • Yes, Echoing Reprimand doesn't interact with the Mark / Darkest Night, this is one of the biggest bugs still plaguing Deathstalker as a whole
  • Until it is fixed, you would want to run 2/2 Lethality and still put 1 point into Echoing Reprimand
    But the 3rd cp or something?
  • Correct, there has been a newly found... bug? interaction? With the Mark and Echoing Reprimand. It requires you to have your 3rd combo point be animacharged, the Mark be applied from Darkest Night, and then consuming the animacharge with Envenom. Should all those conditions be met, it will consume a stack of the Mark as intended.
    Does Blizzard know?
  • There is no way they don't know. This has been mass reported, screamed from the rooftops, highlighted in every wowhead article, youtube video, forum post and stream since Deathstalker was revealed in alpha. The only thing we can do is keep reporting the bug through the in-game report, making noise on forums, and waiting.

Thats what its about

somber fractal
#

yeah the bug was talked about in the video. i guess im mostly interested in scoundrel over shrouded or not

#

i dont like the opener without shrouded but the energy regen without scoundrel feels bad

normal mist
#

I don't think any build plays scoundrel

#

Let me check pc

grim jay
#

Dont think dashing scoundrel was that impactful either

normal mist
#

just checked

#

literally no build plays it

grim jay
#

And thats what he is referring to

normal mist
#

i checked wowhead

grim jay
#

Yeah that was the initial question

balmy condor
#

talents are a bit all over the place cause bugs

Bcs it seems to be different in the video and on wowhead

don't worry about it

this build with PI is 0.4% better than 2/2 vicious and no sanguine

balmy condor

and without PI, the above build is -0.5% behind this

grim jay
#

Unlucky

#

Doubt we will get PI tho

balmy condor
#

like all the bleed stuff is just barely good enough with haste steroids

#

doesn't have to be PI

#

I have skardyn's in this sim, but there's a delve trinket that gives haste

#

which has the same issue

#

mastery buffs vicious, haste does not

#

so like play whatever man idk

somber fractal
#

wait are we actual pi targets again?

balmy condor
#

all of it is actually balancing on a knife edge

somber fractal
#

ive been asleep for far too long

balmy condor
#

but I think especially in like smaller raids or scuffed rosters/multiple priests assa could reasonably get a PI

#

or you're using a haste trinket and all of this comes to pass anyway regardless of PI

#

or you're just really unlucky and have a fuck ton of haste gear

#

or blizzard fixes vicious venoms not working with shiv and none of this conversation matters

#

WHO FUCKING KNOWS

grim jay
balmy condor
#

legit could wake up tuesday and they're like hey yeah so the deathstalker mark doesn't buff mut by 50% anymore

#

and all of a sudden every vicious venom build collapses overnight

grim jay
#

Unholy might not be a PI target this time around either if the sanlayn tree is better

#

Bcs its a 1.5min spec then ive read

balmy condor
#

yeh idk man

#

there's

#

actually just way too much up in the air

#

I can't make sense of any of this

#

also like if ER gets fixed with the mark

#

you lose 1/2 lethality points

#

which buffs garrote

#

so small nerf to imp gar/sang/shrouded

#

which then compounds and makes vicious better

#

:3

I'm gonna mcfreakinglose it

Im still hoping vicious aint better

"better state" is a pretty vague term

WOW EPIC SUB GAMING

like feels better to play

#

and not this hot mess

#

i cant even restore my rogue, the restoration is disabled

balmy condor

I mean this hot mess is just talents being viable or not

#

the gameplay of assa is good regardless of if you're doing extra shiv damage with ttb or getting extra poison crits with dashing

ive played some arena with a sub rogue with deathstalker

#

like it looks pretty strong on sub rogue

i could be wrong but the damage sometimes goes crazy

haven't touched sin since start of s4 dragonflight

Guys (and girls), is it correct to use damaging finishers at 5+ CP? Unless you get into an animacharged point and you need it at 7 CP (hero talent).

spiral escarp
#

I was also wondering the same thing. E.g. we are at 6 CP currently: do we waste a combo point with mutilate to get to a 7 CP Envenom?

#

It feels very counterintuitive if we have to do it. Not to mention the energy starvation that comes with it.

crisp ridge
#

finish on 5+ unless cp is animacharged or you need to activate captone then at 7

spiral escarp
#

So to activate the capstone is higher priority than wasting a CP if we land on 6?

Press the dagger toss button

Real gangster stuff

#

FoK, yolo

arctic socket
#

Fok actually isnโ€™t a bad thing to press now with the hero talent

spiral escarp
#

So fok to get the 7th CP

arctic socket
#

But you would still waste a cp sometimes

spiral escarp
#

True

terse orchid
arctic socket
strange python
#

It's probably better to hit mutilate and waste a cp - as opposed to hitting a worse spell and not wasting a cp though

terse orchid
arctic socket
#

Hopefully tho the anima charged combo points get fixed to apply the mark (the anima powered envemons arenโ€™t even consuming a stack)

strange python
#

I mean the end result is the same - you get 1 cp. So you should probably just hit the spell that does the most damage for that 1 cp.

hazy horizon
#

Fok for extra style

arctic socket
#

Fok also does more damage with the proc

terse orchid
#

Style points translate directly to dps

#

It's why outluls are dooming

Not even style points it still does more damage ๐Ÿ˜‚ assuming you have the hero talent proc up

Hi peeps, new to using class discords. Seeing all of this has been great, something Iโ€™m having trouble finding (maybe because it doesnโ€™t exist here?) is a weak aura tracker I saw Whispyr using for deathstalker. Is that listed somewhere and I just canโ€™t find it?

In general, if I am in a pack of ~5 mobs and couldn't stealth because tank pulled too fast, should I spend time putting rupture on everyone ? is there a good limit (before switching back to main target) or should I rupture/garrot everyone in prio

grim jay
#

If you dot have IC you most likely skip garrote entirely on the offtargets

#

Rupture rule stays the same

#

Rupture them all until max stacks of scent

raven panther
#

Ok, shadowmeld is broken on assa for mm+ I guess. You get IC so much more

grim jay
#

No its bad

#

Because it doesnt work most of the time anyways

#

And even then, you wouldnt need it if the tank chainpulled correctly

marble hemlock
#

you need to manually restealth after shadowmeld, which means you have to run away from the mobs youre attacking as you will otherwise instantly be put back into combat by one of your many many dots ticking. ~10y usually does the trick, but that also means you lose about 3-4sec of uptime pressing buttons.

grim jay
#

And even that doesnt work that often

marble hemlock
#

and any pack that already has dots ticking, you wont get much value out of IC

#

meld/vanish are nice fallbacks if a chain happens and its not a good one/you didnt prepare for it properly, so theyre nice tools to have in those situations.

quiet oar
#

!meld

#

Damn

buoyant pewter
#

how do you prepare for a chain ?

marble hemlock
#

the better you play/the higher you get in content and the better the tank youre playing with, the lower the value of things like shadowmeld or vanish to get restealths for IC. but on the lower end, where things are chaotic and unpredictable, they can have good value for sure

buoyant pewter
#

like wait a bit so you dont get in combat to stealth ?

marble hemlock
grim jay
#

You sound way too positive

marble hemlock
#

the #1 goal in aoe is always to be able to spam abilities every GCD, and you need a certain amount of energy regen for that, the passive one doesnt cover that.

#

its all highly situational, unfortunately. there is no "guide" on how to play a chainpull correctly, as it largely depends on how many mobs are still alive from the previous pull, how high HP they are etc.

grim jay
#

@marble hemlock which race are you even playing btw? Dont tell me its dwarf feelscryman

marble hemlock
#

ive played belf since legion. ive bought a race change in vault to swap to nelf for m+, but had to stay belf for raszagussy and never used the racechange after cuz my m+ grp died

limber lion

I had to racechange to Tauren for Raszageth

limber lion
#

Awful

marble hemlock

but ye i think

limber lion
#

From Belf to Tauren, yuk

#

Belf is bis

marble hemlock
#

in an ideal world, you dont need meld or vanish cuz chainpulls work out great

grim jay
marble hemlock
#

then i think back to the times i felt the tank actually played around chaining properly, and i can count the amount of tanks capable of doing that on one hand. a hand that lost 3 fingers in a sawmill accident

#

so the "chainpulling > restealth" is just a very theoretical advice cause the vast majority of players wont be able to benefit from good chainpulls

quiet oar
#

Only race i would change my belf to would be nelf
