Reload and try again?
Could also really be a debuff on target
But pretty sure it's a buff since it depends on ur 7cp
Out of curiosity when we talk about bleed being better for "low M+" and hybrid (and co) better for high end M+ , what is that roughly referring too?
someone just clocking in weekly 10's for vaults, for example
hybrid will just be better for m+
there is no real low and high on release that much
because noone is overgeared
are you stuck in shadowlands or do you mean smth different?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
abusing deathmark edge case, vanish and cold blood to force a ton of coins in opener can't be intended for Fatebound but it's very fun
if I only play with one charge of shiv, isn't better to use it when kings bane is 8s remaining, instead after mark of death and before kingsbane?
if i remember correctly sims were using Mark -> KB -> Shiv -> Tea
feel free to correct me im not as wise as you guys
Last 8s of KB
lol
check 1st pin
not the latest one but the last one
I seem to be pumping a lot harder on sin compared to my ‘supposed’ main of feral… lol
numbers aren't final, tuning still happening, sin is a bit too strong in dungeons
I guess it’s good that I got both ready to go
yeah
I still think sin my fav dps of all time, Druid just gives the role diversity I like
is anything worth crafting right now?
I'm saving my spark really, but i'll either craft boots or belt with embelishment
590 ilvl stuff
so things that dont use sparks
thought about crafting daggers
i crafted daggers
what profession?
1 590 dagger is fine
cuz those we will probably hold for a while since the daggers from raid will come later in raid. gonna take a little bit to beat it down.
2 is kinda useless
as which profession
blacksmith
no
you dont need to be any specific prof
you can just let others craft your stuff, crafting yourself requires investment anyways
alchemy is always good for longer flask duration
so basically buy one from AH?
no, crafting order
tyvm, i usually just play wow arena 2v2's and then stop so i dont really know anything outside of just playing
small money for people that play longer, but for new players its rather expensive ye
but you also can go the grindy route and upgrade the stuff yourself, will end up slightly lower on ilvl tho
but so is it not profitable to just craft ur own gear
no
aswell as "work" on the work order"
letting someone craft your gear through workorders is what you will end up doing most of the time
if you dont plan on doing much crafting in general
just getting professions to craft for yourself is a major waste
ah okay
guys, is 580 ilvl gonna be ok for the season start?
i have like 300 000 gold idk if thats alot? i never spend it lol
aren't the giga degen grinders like 587?
580 should be more than fine
its fine ig, but still gotta mind your spending. I spent like 500k already in tww
im 584 with barely much done
you're literally a degen
dunno haha
but ye 580 is plenty
just curious how do you "gain" gold anything specific you do
i've just seen a rogue with a craftable dagger and thought maybe i'm gonna do the same
ye if it aint going to make you go broke and you have the gold, go for it
Depends on what you do, for most general casual play 300k is probably fine. If you're seriously playing for raiding you likely have more as a result of sales. If you are actually gold making 300k is pennies
and the work order gear that we can buy are they BiS? or
imagine how cool it would be to have your name turn into a definition. I'd respect it, even if its related to smth negative
but all of that shit is gonna get replaced in no time
i have like 70k
I boost lazy asses
through m+
dumping a ton of gold to get to like 585+ seems kinda pointless unless you're like bleeding edge raiding
like sell items that drops?
xd ig u can do that
you're right
I craft. Play the AH. buy materials low, process/craft them, resell products when markets go up
i made like 20k gold by selling everything i gathered by leveling my alt purely from herbalism/mining from 70 to 72
Gathering works
ye you're gonna be in m+ prison soon 
there's tons you can do to make gold, all depend on what you like doing and what time you have to dedicate to it
no no i'm not an m+ person
oh then ye you're chilling, just take your time with it
i like raiding normal and heroic. that's all
no reason to rush to a giga high ilvl early
maybe mythic one day
ouff that sounds like it takes alot of time to learn haha, i just play the game and hope i gain some ig :p
bare minimum I'd probably get a 590 ring with embellishment, wrist/cloak with embellishment and just upgrade anything else with valor and crests. that would probably be like 40-50k spent all in all
honestly boosting is the easiest way to get gold in wow
legit prints gold
dont think im good enough for that :p
I think you are

you're here, so you're already ahead of 90%+ of the wow community
:o <3
That's fine. If you like playing your character and being in the world I'd recommend gathering just cause it's chill and doesn't take much to learn, but there's still depth to it with things to learn if you want to later, but you don't have to if you just want to mindlessly fly around and click stuff. It's low output but it's consistent
🙂
thanks i appreciate that haha
yeah but can you boost my satisfaction in life? HUH?
but is there any gear in the work order that we should buy thats BiS? or just get drops from dungeons lol
I'd get you addicted real quick 

i didnt even know work order existed until 10 minutes ago haha
Learning all this stuff is part of "playing" the game for me, but it doesn't have to be for you 
haha
ye like I can't stand AH flipping
can someone explain this to me? i have two backs but Pawn tells me that crit+vers is better, though practically in every guide it says that crit+master should be better. am i relying on addons too much or i am just dumb?
so I just kinda just boosted
you only really want to craft stuff with sparks in a few weeks. there is stuff you could do for slight boosts with minimal investment tho
first step towards a better life would be deleting pawn
the second one would be to forget about stat weights
ah so i have to provide all of the ingredients and stuff aswell? i have no clue how the work order works lol
and the third would be using topgear
the problem with Pawn is you have to constantly update the string it uses to value upgrades
and essentially when you do that you can just run a top gear sim on raidbots.com
yep you basically need to get the stuff that you require to craft and then pay someone else that can actually craft for a few k gold to craft it for you
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/topgear is all you'll ever really need for upgrades when you get past the "bigger ilvl" aspect of gearing
I like spreadsheet gaming 
gosh, the game starts to seem a second work with all these theories and everything haha

who hurt you
yeah like all of this is way above me hahah i just do dungeons and equip whatever drops
it aint, you can just start a sim inbetween dungeons if you get something new or just wait until you have a few items. starting the sim takes like 30s
ngl that mindset is literally 90% of the gearing aspect
and the more gear you have the less you sim

yeah yeah, but i had no idéa people use work order and stuff haha
what about me sitting at the crafting order guy for 45mins because noone can do leather stuff I need
i used to do pvp, "oh i won?" buy new gear
learn how to make friends idk

does he need help?
guys, am i right that these new "special assignments" are like twice a week? i saw one on the launch day and wonder if it appears tomorrow or on wednesday
there were like 3 or 4 already
iirc
dont think it has anything to do with weekly reset
i see all of my dots fairly well but it would be nicer to have a bigger font on kingsblade so its easier to time shiv when its 8 sec left
is there any easy way to fix that
or a count down, anything
plater is really nice
there's umm
if you target a dummy and open plater it'll show test debuffs so you can configure it
which talents and hero talents are good for ST?
but you might want a weak aura instead up to you
ty

Wait kingsbane 8 seconds left then shiv, Ive been doing it right after I kingsbane
Isn’t that with two charges?
I think you shiv pre kingsbane with one charge
Or am I cooked
With one charge you use it at the end of KB
no it's something different
special assignment was in hallowfall for me
So what does the opener look like?
Yo thinking of changing to assa from sub.. i only m+ so is it gonna be better?
What Darkmoon trink should i get to get some fast ilvls that is also good on rogue?
what trinkets are BiS for us?
maybe ara-kara sacbrood and crystall
someone told me that
tyty
So the echoing blue CP don’t count as ‚full CP‘ for the darkest night?
minecart bis but not bis
It's from Grim Batol IIRC, which is a season 1 dungeon, so not out yet.
Nope
Is that a ‚bug‘ or should it be like that?
you would want to use ara ara ballsack and signet of the priory for now
so out soon :D
Is DS and ER a bug? Or the intended interaction? Lol
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.
what should be my first craft?
pins
pins?
look at the pins
!tricks
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
Is this confirmed though? Sac doesn't Sim very high, at least for me anyway.
how does the hero talent Lingering Darkness work?
what does "expire" mean? i dont see the buff that often
aside from it being whatever bcs its preseason
its what whispyr is using aswell
iirc
That's good enough for me
why is everyone trying to get that ball
you mean
to receive his wrath

does it stack or something?
obviously
i mean with chain pulls that's probably really decent but ew
spiked counterweight meme trinket
the minute long delay before the egg hatches is about as meme tier as the damage cap on spiked
Why is kingsbane used so late in the rotation? Doesnt the damage stack more with more poison in the enemie?
???
you just get the buff
what are you saying
lol
noone cares for the hatched eggs
you wanna set up your stuff before, because of damage and energy, also need to maximize your DM (if up) for KB to deal more dmg
Hi i have question how do you make Sudden Demise proc ?
Ok thanks
it just procs as the talent says
with applied bleeds
Ah okey okey when you crimson so ?
all bleeds count
I've noticed that sometimes sudden demise just doesn't proc. Was playing with another assa rogue in rookery and i literally had 0 sudden demise damage when i checked recount after the run.
yeah if he does more damage with his bleeds than you
then his proccs
and yours doesnt
Makes sense, he was deathstalker and i was fatebound
hay guys is anywhere a prebis gear build for ilvl580 items?
no
(focus on sin rogue)
because its irrelevant and people refuse to do stuff that has no worth
i think its irrelevant if you dont want to minmax right, otherwise its just prep and there is nothing to do else (besides farming mats/lvling jobs)
no its irrelevant either way
super irrelevant
I'm a top WR guy and i say its irrelevant
(top winning in raids)
Ilvl > caring about minmax
@balmy condor can we get a bot command "!bis" so we can just post that whenever someone asks about bis lists for the nth time every day
580 + ilvl? you're good to go
!bis
I’m 583 at the moment
Nah fam
You need 4 sockets from pvp. JC ring & neck.
Anyone have a bis list for Northshire abbey before you go to goldshire?
less clothing the better
Just completed Kobold Camp cleanup
!bis
Currently doing the PvP farm for honor cap so sadge
guys, how can i disable the garrote silence icon on plater?
you can exclude it
Hey all! Returning player here.. Playing Assasin for Pve and PVP with a focus on PvP.. does the pact I chose matter? Is there a favorite for us? Thanks in advance!
nope
Perfect tysm
weaver gets a slight boost if you're doing a lot of professions, but eventually we'll all get all of the pacts
Great - and speaking of.. I've not chose professions yet. I'm assuming LW/JC or something like that? JC still boost some substats for pvp?
nop
Have plenty of gold on old mains
not a thing for many years
go with whatever pleases you more
in my case is LW and BS
can't be bothered paying hundreds of gold for crafts
so i said to myself:
If you're just thinking about professions for how you can benefit your power, and don't care about gold or doing crafts
Then you can just skip professions
Do them if you want to do them.
And any of them are good for many things, nothing really matters for power or long-term strategy unless you're looking to actually make gold in which case it's a whole other conversation/rabbit hole
So nothing benefits substats or stamina or anything like that .. and the crafts I can buy from people who can already craft them.. so to your point I can just not worry
nop
but if you're just passively doing them and want to, any of them are good, whatever you want to do and is interesting to you
yes
great - thank you guys
does anyoine have a plater that disables all dots etc on target except for ur own as assa rouge
I still have threat plates from prior.. I had to add the spells I wanted to see to the list and just blocked everything else

how does assass feel currently?
to play?
To touch 
Is double vanish better than ER for m+?
no
Assass feels pretty good on the hole
Heroics are piss easy but you will likely top every dungeon you do as assas
all i need to hear
no
tried it but it doesnt show kingsbane?
just add it, I added it aswell
adds a nice little bar that counts down
how do i do that hehe
ah really? how do i add that
I just use lisonna's WA package for rogue
/plater and then to buff tracking. the left list has KB somewhere, just gotta delete that. imo way better to just track it there aswell
or just make ur own WA's for ur own comfort
ive used lisonnas,Whispyrs and now slowly doing my own
for me only
its not even hard and u dont rly need fancy stuff
my first time really using these things so im getting used to it :p
but thnx adding kingsbane like u said really helped
Was hoping i could get some rotation help. I'm currently trying to figure out what i assume to be an easy rotation. However Caustic Splatter is almost never as high as it sims due to the mobs dieing so fast. Is that just an thing when everyone is doing millions of DPS? I've been getting better results with a bleed focused build, but it sims much worse.
if the mobs die rly fast u wont do dmg even with bleeds
coz they dont tick enough to account for
but fyi sin gets more value in higher keys
its a bleed spec
but thats a valuable lesson
not everything that sims higher is better
in your situation
how worth is it to use valorstones / weathered harbinger crests to upgrade rn
if u have any rotational questions we are here for u
the 1st ones wont be needed by season launch
might as well use them now
tyt y
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Basically vanish is only used to keep improved garrote up now?
Hell yeah brother
but like assa dps goes HARD in both single target and aoe
i feel like always always am an top
yeah me too
seems like only arcane is higher
ppl are bad
but i think arcane will be nerfed even more
!wa
there's still time for a bunch of tuning

don't take HC runs as proof of anything
just a fact nothing more xD
youll see the diff in dmg when you play with good people
frost dk gonna get nerfed tho
overall nerf is less than 3% of their dmg
ye they should still be on top
depends on the dungeon as well
am i the only one who thinks that blizz are making all these nerfs for us to level alts and play more? therefore pay more
haha
if the class is good in mythic and raid that's fine
pallys really shine in cinderbrew
Ye youre the only one
even if it's nto the best
Theyre doing it to balance the game, like they literally always do
yes but..
they don't do it to balance the game
if it was for pure balance you can tweak the numbers as you want
until everytuhing does exactly the same dps
they never do for some reason
?
that would be extremely difficult
keeping stuff rotating in the meta is just better for player retention
Lmaoooo
nerfs more often lead to people quitting tbh
Raid balancing has been expectional for a long ass time
never seen nerfs make people play more
nerfs + buffs
mostly cause they sacrifice m+ balancing for it
Not really
I'm gonna seppuku
Whatchu looking for?
the spriest compensation that turbobroke them in m+ was raid motivated iirc
god comps will always happen in M+
then again that spec has been broken for more than just dps
it's the nature of the format
Idk people vastly overestimate how important the meta comps are
yes but ppl also follow it
there you have the data, when a comp becomes a god comp, nothing else is played
gl getting invited being off meta, it's honestly a waste of tyime
despite the same people playing their mains to title season after season
thing is why would people take a gamble on off meta that needs relatively better play for the same result as aug xd
that's the thing, ppl don't wanna get chances
which is fine, you won't get rejected from a +10
going further is irrelevant really
yeah weeklies are chill
but it sucks becouse with some classes/specs even finding a +10 takes a while
what should i craft?
Its just wild to me that theres a huge amount of people playing this game without a guild or friends
Some people don't have friends
Wow is my escape
you won't always play with them tho
My character is my friend
They already have stuff in place that changes your spell/ability damage in pvp, idk why they don't just do that for when you instance into an M+ or Raid
They do
you change builds
That's what i'm talking about
I've never seen in a patch note "+10% damage (Only in raid)"
they don't have to ruin M+ to balance raid since they can target the specific talents for each content
Until it gets to the point that it's "too good" and it starts getting used in the other form of content that it wasn't intended for
Heres from the latest notes that drop on reset

Fair, forgot about healing, which does indeed say in numerous areas that it's either buffed/nerfed in raid groups
they can tweak a lot of things to balance M+ and raid
sadge
they just don't want to
not worth the effort
if frost DK ends up being perma played in keys for S1
it will be fine
Just buff ret paladin again 🤪
for S2 they will nerf it into irrelevance and another class will take the pot
Couldn't find this in the guide, but do we force a 7cp envenom to use darkest night if we landed on 5 or 6cp? Or wait until land on 7cp naturally?
Force
Frost dk definitely deserved some of that love, they were pretty underplayed for a while, but not as much love as they got. Hopefully the nerf makes them still hit hard but not be broken as shit
considering how the class plays
being mid should be enough for FDK
but that's another discussion
Hey guys, I'm playing rogue the first time this xpac. I've gone through the guides on wowhead and icyveins and have done only 3 heroics...I'm still practicing the rotations, but my question is for raiding in mythics, which of the 3 builds should i really be learning? I feel like hybrid is good for heroics but when raids and mythics start it seems like i'll be playing more of the single target/raid aoe builds with shivs being a bigger part of the rotation
Heroic dungeons die too fast for anything but bleed to be good
Sudden demise + fatebound is op build for heroics play that for now
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
- Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
Thanks, but i'm also trying to practice the raid specs too...looks like bleed has some of the elements of both and would help me practice a rotation close to what I will be using in raids
I have a question about talents. All the guides say I should take both the Stratagems from both trees, which means I have 7 max combo points. But the tooltips of my finishers only has the value of 6 combo points. (I tried on Sub and there is numbers for 7 but it's not the same for assass) So is it a tooltip bug or is 6 the max we can have? If that the case can I just take one of the Stratagem?
Tooltip bug
Ok thanks! Hope they fix it soon. It's been very confusing for me.
Is it not in his weak aura?

I’ve not
And won’t until heroic week likely
Extra week for tuning always scares me 🙂

Yep, but it doesnt

I did like 5 hours of dungeons last night and have a new hatred of darkest night 🙂
Technically, ER just functions as if 7 combo points were used, which isn't explicitly the same as "maximum" 🤓 🤓 🤓
but yeh it's dumb

Well did they say anythint about it, if its a bug or intended?
They’ve not
And using animacharged point that is on 4th or less spends mark on target?
I mean...just read the command up there.
Whats the deal with everyone doing pvp?

in the normal rotation are we using shiv when kingsbane is on cooldown or just saving it all for kb?
save
Is the lack of energy normal on longer fights? Or am I doing something wrong? Always gotta fill it with the tea
this shouldnt be to bad to pop between deathmark and KB
!pooling Yes, dealing with the fact that we don't have infinite energy is normal, and is part of the intended design of this spec
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.
Is assassination the go to for M+ and Raiding now? or am I tripping
Yeah I mean, that's fair lmao
Icy-veins have listed assasination rogue as 3rd on DPS tier list for seasion 1 of Mythic+... that's my source... I know it's hard to know right now...
tier lists are stupid
I don't know what to do lmao
Play the spec you don't normally play to get acquainted with it
now is the time to do that
I mostly play sin but I'm playing sub right now while I'm running around the world doing stuff
Yeah I've been playing outlaw the last couple weeks, kinda thought it was best to do that too
is there some kind of thing we should be aiming for so our DN / Mark has max uptime on trash mobs? Feels like Im spending 2nd half of trash packs with no mark etc

I’m brand new to rouge trying to learn assassin big aoe rotation any tips would be appreciated
Spread bleeds poison
Profit
4head
(Generally the icyveins and wowhewd rotation lists the aoe prio list so u can see it there)
Other than when you come out of stealth and the bleeds spread should I be spreading beyond that on big pulls
I’ve been looking at wowhead
I try to spread garrote as much as possible before going in to big cds, for rupture im fine with just having it on 3 on them (but that is likely a me problem and not maximizing)
i need uso all of these or nah?
just pick one that you like 
you dont need to use anything, i use my own
You can use one of those or one of your own, it's all up to you. The ones above are just meant as a quick jumping off point
the first 5 are HUD and the last 2 are for nameplates
What cooldowns are we using in aoe?
Wowhead good
.
Same as ST. You spread your bleeds, then pick your target and get caustic up, then use cooldowns like st on them
read the wowhead guide
I know we say "maintain garrote on the main target in aoe" but what about 2 or 3 target cleave? Do we want to use garrote on the non caustic target as well there or just rupture on the second / third target?
on single target: to get an improved garrote for deathmark
on multitarget: to refresh IC and spread ruptures and garrotes
alright cheers, when IC is enough to spread rupture garrotes to everything i guess u just vanish when theyre running out?
ye ofc
Feels like re-rupturing is a pain without vanish as it only applies to 1 target outside IC
you're normally going to use vanish with deathmark
even in AoE
unless you already have an imp garrote
keeping them sync'd up is way easier for most people
but you can use vanish to spread bleeds outside of CDs as long as you can get them sync'd back up for bosses and prio mobs n what not
Hmmm, alright, thanks
and yeah manually rupturing outside of IC is a pain
but it iz what it iz 
depending on the pull you can just keep like 3-5 ruptures out
How should overall dmg breakdown look like in M+?
depends on the tree your using
I play sudoku and tft now
and the key level
hello chat what class shoiuld i switch to when we get massively nerfed next week
we don't switch we just complain more

but next week is just the first nerf to "get us in line"
it's the next 2 nerfs
that will make people reroll 
because people see sudden demise pad in herioc dungeons and think the spec is broken or something idk

Is there a nice plater import for sin? I got one but it’s way to overwhelming to properly track the important poisons and debuffs for sin

so what I am wondering is, nobody is making the Authority of Depths weapon enchant yet. So like, what's a good secondary? Seem slike Artistry, for mastery, and/or Coiuncil's Guile for crit would be good?
since we're not running arterial right now, do we save shiv for darkest night envenom timing?
or maybe Radiant Power for primary stat?
You save shiv for kingsbane
ok wasn't sure since we only have 1 charge of shiv and it doesn't always line up with darkest night
i did try for memes to juice it up and it did do an absolutely absurd envenom lol
Heard that one's pretty good

Thanks I try a few
I’ll see which one I like
Another question, how can I ceep like lots of bleeeds up and still focusing on DN procks?
So we would shiv when kingsbane is active?
You have to keep track of your spells and procs.
I imagine you should be able to send on cd and with kingsbane
Since 1 charge
It’s so hard tbh 😭
It takes practice but it can be done. I just look at the buffs on the target. And when it expires I reapply my dots.
Well before they expire
What do I do when I applied my bleeds, used tempest? Am I using mutilate or fan of knives in the meanwhile? And finisher always envenom until I need to reapply bleeds and tempest?
Im just overwhelmed Tracking bleeds in a big group, when there’s 10 nameplates with all buffs 🤯
Mutilate only to reapply caustic spatter, other than that FOK
Even on single target?
On single target no you press multi
Okay thanks

Oi, random pinapple on Pizza-man here again
Assa still ahead of sub after changes? Or do I need to learn that fucking dance macabre again
@frail root just remove every debuff on plates aside from Deathstalker's Mark, Rupture and Kingsbane. Rest is just clutter, could maybe include Garrote too if you feel like it
which repu i target first?
2 Mutilate, 3+ FoK
ty!
From what I've seen there is most rep to be had with Hallowfall, if you care about the Crest at renown 24. You also get a quest at renown 11 for a 584 neck
np
There is 4 different things, like blacklist debuffs and buffs and stuff, which one is the right one I need to edit?
@frail root , also install the addon idTip if you haven't. Very useful for plater and weakauras
How much of an emphasis you guys putting into sanguine blades? I just watched whipyres m+ Video and it was much much higher than mine % damage wise. Idk why, I felt like I was always above half energy (clearly not)
How’s everyone enjoying rogue (death stalker or bust) so far?
And o gotta delete all the others from blacklist debuffs right?
if you are going on low energy in aoe you are probably not putting enough bleeds
I'm just testing at dummies and I am, idk if my damage is skewed so it appears lower
I'm bleeding all dummies on opener
and are you refreshing the ruptures and garrotes?
if yes you really shouldnt be on low energy
Can I ask what % damage it's doing for you?
sure let me login and hit some dummies
does assassination no longer have auto refresh of SnD?
Yeah just remove all passive stuff you don't play around. Should also remove stuff like Crimson tempest and just track it with a weakaura
I mean if you have poisons on, you Garrote and Rupture everything in sight
You will automatically get full value from Sang
Because you'll be at 100% energy at all times
It's baseline for all specs now
ah i see it now
but if im doing aoe and mass refreshing rupture and garrote i wont be envenoming much and wont be refreshing snd right?
You envenom a lot in aoe
Can you recommend a good WA for sin? Mine is usually for sub and I guess it doesn’t really track stuff for sin
You do Envenom enough
IC handles all the Garrote/Rupture spreading for most part

thats more or less my breakdown for a 40 sec pull
Oh that looks just above mine
you shuoldnt have to refresh bleeds for a pull like that
yeah need to get a bit used to timings for that
Hard to test Assass in heroics so I'm just messing about at dummies making up m+ scenarios and seeing what I'd need to do 🙂
yeah we still go hard with dps even in heroics
but u wont get many opportunitites to send cds properly in heroics
How can I deactivate a WA without deleting it?
that sounds about right, you shuoldnt be doing any major mistakes if you are hitting that dps on dummies
Load - never
Ah thanks
Hi, anyone knows a good Combo Point Weakaura?
Showing CP on plater is useful to me
But I'm not using ER
How is Fatebound for keys? As compared to poopstalker atleast
do we always send shiv beetwen mark and kingsbane ST and AOE? i see some ST openers that they dont recommend to use shiv first if u only have 1 charge
I think it's neat
!wa These packs have CP weakauras, you could look at them and pull out the CP aura you like best.

could someone kind enough plz explain the optimal usage for echoing reprimand and why if ran with serrated bone?
Press it on cooldown
just send it on cd
That's it
uhm ok thought it had more depth to it.. thx then I maybe dont need to understand it ^^
Shiv always has to cover the last 8 sec of kingsbane. So if you only run 1 charge then hold it for that and send 1 between kingsbanes I think?
any sources people are using for gearing?
ilvl
Heroic spams and renown rewards
Easy 584ish
g
Yeah I’m gonna make it today along with !best or something for all the people asking about OUTLAW SIM HIGH GOOD????
Just farm valor stones, get all pieces to 580. Get crafted gear if you want, not really needed. Farm rep for the 584 pieces. Farm and hold your Restored Coffer Keys for Season 1 start for 603 Gear from Delves
1)Echoing reprimand(ER) now that it doesnt interact with darkest night(DN-deathstalker's final capstone),it doesnt trigger it in short,is used on cd and we press it is as early as possible into our rotation(because it generates cps we use to normally refresh slice and dice after our opener).
2)SbS(serrated bonespike) is just passive dmg that gives cps in return,its a generally very good thing to have,there is no downside.You can spec out of it if u want but as a passive is generally very very good.
hell yeah, slay bestie
Don't let whispyr fool yall he said it cranks last night
Whispyr is usually cranking at night

I like this plan
make everyone play outlaw
"outlaw too strong!" nerfed
Assa numbers seem low compared to outlaw.... Buffed!
Whispyr playing 3D chess

someone have a double vanish build for M+?
Hey, I kinda struggle with my aoe rotation. If there are a lot of mobs, should I be hitting each one of them with rupture after using ambush- garrote- rupture - fan of knives - crimson tempest? or just spam fan of knives + envenom
You want to mainly maintain some targets ruptured (and garrote) for the scent of blood stacks and energy income. After that, just choose a target to caustic spatter and go ham
to make things easier you can ambush > garrote > rupture > rupture > garrote > fok > ct off the same mob and you'll have 5 targets with rupture/garrote and not need to worry about switching targets
Yep that works well
u press garx2=>rupturex2=>(2nd gar while IC is active preferably manually on different target to stack scent)=>proceed with the rotation by picking ur target etc
and another thing
dont hold ur cds
send them
if you go past 7 too fast in coin flip build do you not get lucky coin?
wdym past 7?
u triggered fateful ending then
didn't get the lucky coin buff tho
in ST deathstalker is it best to use envenom at 5 CP if i don't have DN? or is it better to mutilate to 7 then envenom?
okay ty
hellow fellow rogue lovers
are we able to stack x2 embelishments so we get twice the bonus?
e.g x2 dawnthread
normally thats the plan but embelishments dont work right now
ty sap
u r welcome fam
the minecart bit of darkflame cleft may be the worse thing they've ever made
Sorry if I'm late to the party but with Echoing Reprimand things are meant to act as if you have used 7 CP, but when I Envenom with charged CP it doesn't seem to trigger Darkest Night.
Is it cause one says 7 and one says 'Max' or is it just bugged or what? :/
Damn. Kinda feels like that interaction is the point of those things existing in the first place.
Also roger that. Thanks
HEY BOYS (:
two questions:
- do i spam envenom with cds and out of cds (KB and DM) i chain it?
- do you use the ambush procs of deathstalker even in AOE? 🙂
ty
love
1)U wanna spam as many finishers as humanly possible during ur cds and u wanna practice pooling while outside of them.There is a general guide/vid whispyr made explaining everything
2)Deathstalker doesnt play with blindside,should check the guide for an optimal build 🙂
but if u are still wanna play with it
there is nothing u can really do,blindside replaces mutilate anyway
u just press it
or u can ignore if there are 3+ targets which makes pressing fok ur main builder
wait but according to the wowhead guide you play blindside in raid
''even in aoe''
much love
ty 🙂 !
and i meant ambush/multilate
in aoe, since it consumes the stack, but im not sure at whoch target size in m+ i will consume
as a deathstalker u wanna apply the mark asap
mark is highest prio
pick one target and max cp envenom
b/c without mark you have no hero tree
what im asking is if i consme in large packs the stacks with multilate
no, ignore it and just use fan - unless you need to refresh caustic
bingo bongo
ty
grats
gz
is it just me or is deathstalker really annoying?
I might up it to higher than 580#
How many Ara-Kara’s did you abandon for that one? 
so I can waste crests
so i can handycap myself

shrinket
Real
i like everything being purple on my character sheet 
i’ll just do PvP slop to get conquest if i feel pressed for gear when the season starts
huh
Oh joy
why is that
our godking's wowhead guide recommends whetstone and weighstone each for consumables. the weightstone is likely an error, yeah, or am i missing something obvious?
You hear that @wheat nebula guess we’re going to get gladiator after all
assassination is good for pvp right? especially deathstalker i’m guessing
coz pvp gives free sockets
sub is light years ahead but sin still good ye
Whetstone sounds pog tho
fatebound sounds neat if you’re fighting any frost mage
100%,those coins will definitely kill him
chain shadowstep genius
smokebomb the second nova?
get knocked out of stealth randomly for no reason eight times
Does anyone know how i can use just the Combo points the energy and the envenom bar from luxthos? his WA is crazy
when he runs in blind
Just use sprint to break LoC
pet nova is aoe,same as the regular one

he will blizzard u cant reset
u die when bomb is gone
just go sub and murder his ass
be then he can't cast rank 1 frostbolt to do dmg
we need pvp trinket that makes you immune to frost damage
or just trinket that kills mages
anti-mage twelve gauge
mage>any melee that wants time to ramp
not only frost
fire or arcane
same sht
u die
Do you all use mouseover shadowstep?
people use fire or arcane in pvp?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
that’s it. eight new movement spells and ten more defensives for mage immediately
also 42% aura buff and cloth armor value tripled
mouseover pickpocket is useful sometimes
gurgling wax or whatever
gargle on
It’s definitely finicky
Might go back to regular
I find that 95% of the time when people are like oh my god you need mouseovers on step you need mouseovers on gar/rup or else you're bad and it's so much better
just
/targetenemy
/cast Pick Pocket
shadowstep may unironically be the best ability for having joy and whimsy in your heart
I have it macro'd to my sap macro, so I just spam that tbh
You need a mouseover step macro to murder your friends tho
I didnt have it either but got one during sark
Esp those boomkins
didnt play with mouseover sstep forever
I like a focus step/kick macro though
Because you couldnt step the boss because of spooky circles
only started doing it 1 year ago lol
you can murder a boomkin with a leveling trinket proc
Just waste cloak and move in the half second you have to realize where it put you
🫶

o/
murdering boomkins is always the ethical correct choice
in your openner garrote + rupture, u need re aply those after use deathmark ?
or the damage of the break and club already increases if I use deathmak after
Sin the top rogue but how far off is my outlaw pirate rogue?
rupture * garrote*
i don’t believe anything in game snapshots anymore
like at all
so it should be fine probably
I keep trying deathmark, but the fact that I never get a restealth in dungeons makes me dislike it alot
Huh
If they die/you consume the 3 stacks, your next 7cp envenom applies it
no need for restealth
I know you can get the buff to reapply it, but I lose it sometimes in the really big pulls
Is Fatal Intent already fixed? the Bug List shows as fixed, but it almost does no damage
that isn’t always the most reliable though, i get the frustration but it feels really nice when you do get it
I also don't think it works with echoing reprimand?
Its fixed, it just sucks ye
Before it did literally 0
Now it does almost zero 
echoing reprimand is my mortal enemy and i will never touch it
Yeah that one is very weird, no idea why its like that
Because its bugged 
makes 0 sense
I dunno, I just feel deathmark is more annoying than fun
Then play fatebound
what's higher prio with no restealth: gar/rupt targets or 7 combo point env to apply deathmark?
i just really like how the rupture thingy works in 2-3 targets with bone spikes
deathstalker's mark
thx boss
Them calling it deathstalkers mark
When we already have deathmark
Is such a silly move
oh yeah lol
I think it will be better when m+ comes out. Hc dungeons feels like a pretty bad benchmark for assass potential
people shorthanding it to deathmark is even worse
our talent tree also needs more spikes and green misty clouds
Ye
stalker stabby is my go to
Hows outlaw compared to sin in m+?
deathstalker's mark *
deathlog parsing
DM best abbreviation if you play subtlety
😕 Deathstalkers macabre? Danse Mark?
at least we get dn
I'm gonna have to givefatebound a try
yeh that's pretty awful
are you supposed to not finish with env if it's gonna kill a target and you lose deathstalker's mark? or just do it and hope vanish is up so you can get it going again
yes it’s called edgving
ignore whispyr answer
what gems are you guys using at tho moment?
anyone got a nice darkest night and mark weakaura?
none
de beers
the cheap ones
Simming how much worse?
is sub decent in M+? I haven't seen any of the sims
Ye I saw that in sims but does it feel like that? Cuz assa is Poppin with deathst
I guess this is the wrong channel for that
deathstalker isn't even better right now 
it's mostly sudden demise I'm gonna be honest
Real?
sudden demise doing like 15% of your damage in heroics
and then also being 10% bleed damage
it's just low content nonsense
assa aoe is good but it's not like insanely op
Ye but sims are made in high end content or right now?
its one of those specs that sims pretty high but no one rly plays it and there is a reason why.No dance,nerfed CS capstone,no acro.
So if I wanna raid
no reasonable person plays this outlaw
Is it good assa
it makes no sense
?
raid design allowed that on many fights in DF
just don't look at amirdrassil
probably the best out the 3 specs if u are new
I've been maining rogue sin wod
