24 does give a hc crest
you mean the thing you can get in ~1 week anyway....?
and you have 2 sparks?
Crafting x2 619 and spend crest on myth track items instead?
is it safe/smart to upgrade trinkets? (i have only upgraded MH weapon and spent crests on 2x embelish)
I saved every rep thing until DMF just for them to disable the Rep hidden treasure things
fml
Guess it depends, whats your odds on getting a m0 BiS trinket? I would say pretty high if its the egg sack thingy, it has a 30% drop rate and I believe drops all specs, with m0 on daily lockout, shouldn't be hard
hmm i have the heroic sacblood
use up all your weathered crests, m0 and 8 delves make them useless anyways
only thing you are wasting really is gold (crafting 590) + valorstones (or whatever they are called now on upgrades)
no
but m+ will literally give the same ilvl lol
and at the same week we get m+ we also get the 2nd Spark
so people could make 2 max lvl crafted items there

i mean sure, if people wanna do some kinda pointless rep grinds for ilvl number going up temporaly, do it, not my choice
but the "gain" is literally not existing
The gain of telling my guildies "Oh you don't have max rep, you even play the game?" is worth it though
well you gonna spend aspect crests to craft your items while you could get two free hc crafts
nah, you mount up on one of the grind mounts and act as if it was worth it
(it kinda was)
Faaaaaaiiiirrrrrr
honey buzzer can crit. it's growing on me.
and you would make those crafts max lvl anyway
soooo.....?
i mean thats such a dumb arguement, you would make anything max item lvl anyways at some point so why do anything
it is effiecient to craft x2 hc for free
sure long term you would have to recraft
but we literally get the endless HC gear source in 1 week anyway 
Why do anything ever
What do we think about earthen? A good race for sin?
?
and?
you will still be limited upgrading to pieces by crests
which you will use for your craft while others craft for free
As good as everything else
Nothing special
what is rc
Unless there’s a pin saying that it’s fixed, yes
Resounding Clarity
merci
Because we play Lethality instead of RC but still play ER
Deserved tbh
You asked
cant sleep aswell
we should both probably put the phone away
what about 3 white monsters
you will not regret chugging 3 white monsters
There’s better energy drinks.
whispyr about to smite you
wrong
based
specifically cause of that comment right there yes
im gonna be nerfing assa by 20%
no problem
pls sir 😢
At the moment is it better to run the bleed talent build or the hybrid one in hc dungeons?
they're both fine
I know we were on the topic earlier, was there a decision if it was worth tab targeting/mouseover the IC garrot at 6+ targets?
Peach and white monster best energy drinks
lol icy-veins
yes
Also 5 hour energy shots
how about you nerf assa by 4% so that all the fotm chasers leave out of fear and we can have some peace and quiet
at 5 targets it doesnt matter, 6 you mouseover, 7 basically doesnt matter and 8+ always mouseover i think?
or just 6+ if you wanna be normal
Okay, 6 plus i just garrot main target then second garrot another target?
fair
time to jerk off for a week
does this same rule apply for rupture?
yeah
they work the same way
if you dont change target you only get 2 extra ruptures and your target is just refreshed to max duration
3% is fine be generous
whatever gets the clowns out
well fuck ive been doing that wrong, thank you

its not a terribly big deal
as long as you have a long rupture on 5 targets for scent of blood and energy income you'll be fine
but yeah its better to get free damage than not get it
I for sure get that part right
Deathstalker's marks
you need to ambush from stealth to activate it
its your Hero tree Base starting point
okay gotcha ty
thats like 6-7 ilvl lower than normal
not raid, avg ilvl i mean
580+ is more than enough to start m0 and normal raid
If 580 is trolling heroic dungeons, m0 isnt much of a challenge
yea, but why would u not craft few 590s up to 585 or higher, crests are there anyway
M0 should be a bump in difficulty
Probably gold
MB for all the questions. So in AOE its garrot, garrot, rup, rup, CT, Slice and dice, then spat?
That should do it yes, the important part is spreading the garrotes and ruptures and then CT
After that pick a loser and blow him up
feel free to read your prev message
AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
581? That's barely good enough for probably some content idk

@normal mist 800k for jc recipe off theater event
One that I did on an alt in like 2minutes because i caught the tail end.
ive never been so fucking owned i was tabbed out and this guy just rolled up to me on a bigger bee
im quitting dude
hes just 582
AAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAA
binding of binding
did they fix the echoing reprimand bug?
the weird ring craft that gives someone else stats
no
when it procs
what would that do
change a color maybe
If Im in an AOE pack, and I deathstalker marks a target and it dies while still 2 stacks left, does it transfer to my new target, or is it gone for good until next stealth?
you get the capstone
capstone?
btw is capstone dissapearing completely if that 7cp envenom did fatal dmg to a mob a bug?
ohh, so no matter how many stacks, when target dies i get darkest night thats very nice
very nice indeed
that's how the game works
very "cool"
fatebound is super fun... feels a tiny bit like outlaw w/ seeing the coins get thrown around lol
hope that barely happens in m+
doesnt give you stats
gives your bind
okay and
unless wowhead tooltip is wrong its only like 40 secondaries
it's wrong
dw
ascension on wowhead is like 12,000 stat
blizzard fucking item level scaling on all of the embellishments
Whats the best way to approach 12+ pack?
Depends on the pack
spread a bunch of bleeds during carnage, apply CT, pick a target and caustic spatter away
Get in a higher level key lol
yea the opener is pretty much always the same like conceptually
you just stop bleeds earlier if the pack isnt big enough
i think the images on wowhead go over dis
Whispyr how many coffer keys is it we are meant to have this week
from quest
s
6?
I got 6 and 75 so one more wq and got 7 + what we get on reset
you can only get loot from 4 bountiful delves a day right ?
Oh really that’s not to bad anyways gota do 12 for the week at 8 plus the 5 to get to t8
this is probably a dumb question... in raidbots, when you do a sim, if you mouseover some of the buffs in uptime, it shows the tooltip for a lower ilvl version. is that a display bug? or is raidbots not actually simming with the correct ilvl buff?
Does garrote and rupture cleaving smart target? Or do I have to run around the pack to find mobs without bleed and stand in particular spots?
Yo guys. is pooling the same on long fights as it was in dragonflight?
gameplay is generally the same but you don't want to pool all the way back up to 80%
typically staying under 50%
yes, carnage smart targets
why is that. what changed?
an expansion worth of changes came out
So I can just pick 1 target and spam my garrotes off it?
you'd still lose the garrote you're casting on the target but otherwise yes
there was a kind of "pooling helper" weakaura. is it worth using for learning?
no and I've deleted it
Because sometimes I lose my marked target in a pack but maybe I’ll focus it
I have 8
Rnged 2 keys from wq fragments
But 6 base
you can also get keys from renown if u degen hard enough
reason why i specified from quests xD
Yo whispyr what did you do to your plater I can’t barely see the other mobs that isn’t my target 😦
I added priority mob scaling
Ok hold up, if there’s 4 garrotes in the stealthed opener, then cleaving off 1 target I can do
12/11/10 targets 4 garrotes
9/8/7 targets 3 garrotes
6/5/4 targets 2 garrotes
Or without changing main target
9/8 4 garrotes
7/6 3 garrotes
5/4 2 garrotes
So for 6 targets or 8+ I want to swap targets
Otherwise I’m still pressing the same number of globals to apply my bleeds
lots of math for a lot of doesn't matter
If there's 10 mobs in a pull, and everything is dead down to 3, no stealth, no vanish, no bleeds up but they'll be dead in let's say 10-15 seconds, do I bother rupturing them or just spam envenom?
is saturn in retrograde
So swap targets if I want, if not just cleave off main target?
And it doesn’t really matter either way?
but like idk rupture them for energy I guess
yeh pretty much

no
whispyr is your plater set up for pvp too?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
whats the last map for campaign?
no, I haven't pvp'd since wod, dead gamemode
How much ilvl u need for m0?
dead game. pvp is ok
i dont think there is a requirement for M0 beacuse you dont use the dungen browser
it doesent have an item level requirement
is heroic going to become M0 like it was at the end of dragonflight?
whats a good dps on a boss? single target? 1m?
probs 580+ to be honest
Thanks !
How can you compare your dps ? I’m curious if I’m doing good or not in dungeons
Yea
damn thank god i chose assas rogue as my alt...feels sooo good
did it always feel this goodto play? or did they make some good changes this Xpack?
rogue does feel pretty dam fun tho
just hopiing teh dev's don't decide to swing the nerfbat to hard in our direction once they get around to it... lol

df tempest rework and spatter did a lot to make the spec way more satisfying
i’d still say sin has always been the most fun melee but there’s bias considering ur in the sin channel ofc

either im playing assasination wrong, or most classes feel like they just beat me in ST :/
@balmy condor Curious what you meant by patch in the pin regarding embellishments? I couldn't find any info other than ascencion on dagger
im not sure what you mean
Ascension on dagger + Patch is technically bis right now but it's way stronger than legit anything else and bis for basically every spec in the game so nerfs are kinda expected, do with that what you'd like
yes
ahh gotcha, ty
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
I should probably start making
actual statements though
I can't keep waiting for blizzard
to figure out what they want their fucking game to be
u still have like 2 weeks left tbh
no need to rush
hey whispyr what part under plater changes the color of the bars for deathstalker mark im trying to add it to a profile and cant figure it out
wow i feel stupid thank you so much!
np
sin st isnt great right now but you might also be playing it wrong, no way to know
watch the whispyr raid guide 🫡
i think m+ guide goes over st too but
Im doing 40k/50k less than what im simming
just sim seems kinda low compared to most classes in ST
make sure your sim consumables and raid buffs match your actual consumables, default includes flask/weapon stones/etc
Hey all am I crazy or is the deathstalker capstone still buggy? max point envenoms dont do anything and I just cry as I see the buff tick off 😦 It seems to work once or twice, then nothing for the next 10 minutes.
it is quite buggy but it shouldnt be that consistent
if you use envenoms on mobs right before they die you wont refresh mark but thats unfixable
cause of how the games ticks work or some shit
Thanks, Ill keep an eye out on that.

for m+ ye
may i ask what would be the option for raid? i just got back to rogues, trying to see what to pick for specs lol
wait like 2 weeks see what liquid/echo run. or play the one you like
okays
There is a WA you can just import and it will change health bar of target to show which target has deathstalker mark on them
Does some1 have a tracker for the amount of ruptures that r up currently ? I have big trouble in big aoe pulls tracking ruptures
oh shit, i gotta bring out the meme
whispyrs wa does it
And raid?
ty will get it from there
kinda meh
it's on my phone, i didnt feel like looking
nice try buddy
what's the thing that keeps making my combo points fill after i cast rupture
bone spike
SBS
Its not recommended keeping thistle tea up in kingsbane window for mastery but instead only use it if starving energy?
same
blizz locking down on dev communication made us not lose a dev

i blame outlaw

i blame zac


I can not find a word about FoK in ST in the guide though in quick sims the robot is using it regulary, why's that
im #1 zac hater

dude anyone else has died to the mining stones that throw bombs around?
I have died 4 times this expac so far, 4 times to this fucker
I dont believe you have 0 deaths to fall dmg
(I need to get better too)
im shrimply too good
but im not good enough to not die to this fucking rock
no
does this reset if we refresh rupture withing pandemic window or will it stay on 10 stacks
alright what build be the highest simming
vicious
say less
im holding around 550k on 5mins+ dummy "shrug" idk if that horrible or good lmao but thats what im at
what do you sim on a target dummy
well that would be where you'd find out if that's good or horrible
very cool and epic

If sub is better for raid ST, I am going to cry, I was told to go sub for season 3... never forgetti
If asss is close enough, we golden
my first death this expack was to fall damage
the second was to the mining node
Can u share if possible any rogue sim spreadsheet?

Does anyone know what I should do on raidbots to find out which gear piece I should upgrade optimally?
for stuff you have now? not really, I would just try to get the best trinkets you can incase you get shit luck in m0 and don't get them there
I have the best trinkets
I have 45 crests, just not sure which gear slot I should max out
That's why I'm asking
what crests?
weathered
Yea just use them, you can sim to find the best upgrade, nothing else to do till the 10th
Yeah that's what I'm asking
what do I have to do to sim them to find the best upgrade
Ohhhh right sorry, raidbots and in the main gear section you can select how many valorstones + crests you have
ok thanks!
rule of thumb though is normally, weps, trinkets, shoulders/chest then other I think.
!best
All Specs are good and have niches and strengths that they play to. All three specs are looking viable with Assassination/Subtlety being preferred in raids. Mythic+ meta has not solidified yet but Assassination looked promising during beta.
Be aware that Simulations are a tool to be used to compare things like talents/gear/rotations, they are not the definite answer to what is meta or not meta. While outlaw is ahead in sims right now, especially dungeonslice, you have to take a step back and realize these are synthetic/generic situations that we use as a baseline. Dungeonslice has always been a great showing for outlaw simply due to the fight style matching well with the spec. This is not unusual or unheard of.
You can view logs of the raid when it comes out Here, or view the mythic+ run leaderboard Here.
echoing reprimand sim lower than double vanish on m+ build for anyone else?
lemme see the sim
what kind of sim is 10 target dummy 1:30 lol
okay what sim do you recommend
dslice
Yeah ofc getting 2 vanish in 90 is good
It’s the like
30 minutes following
That’s a laugher
a talent that gives 2-3 extra casts over 40 minutes
versus simming a giga aoe situation where you get 1 in 90 seconds

Bro said
hahahaha
why do you have this on quick paste from phone you a menace
why am i getting shit on, i just asked a question? im new and trying to learn
Yea don't dumpster on Hisao damn
Oh I was trying to clarify, that’s not to you specific
I wasn't trying to be mean
I’m a bit diabolical rn (12 day wow streak)
is it cause bonespike is back
Ye
I'm 576, get rekt nerd
Nah sin feels good in dungeons and stuff
wym overestimate? can you explain the reason
554 pants and 558 bracers
Yea so Dslice is the best do go with and even still it aint amazing to paint the entire picture of the dungeon, there is a heap of discussion around double vanish and how amazing it is, when infact if you look over an entire m+ dungeon you get 2 - 3 casts of it, making it really not worth the effort. Lord Whispyr did a video on it
without a trace gives you +1 charge, so in dungeonslice, which is a 6 minute simulation, you're getting 1 extra use in 6 minutes. Based on logs you most of the time get 2 extra uses in 40 minutes
so dungeonslice will overestimate the impact of without a trace
pretty heavily
its the same reason why your sim was pointless in that regard
Yea hence the 1:30 being a bit wild because it is such a small window, can blow all your load
90 seconds is just insanely unrealistic to what the talent is actually doing
i guess i should count the amount of times im using it. ive been saving 1 for deathmark and using the other mid aoe for garrote resets
we have sims to see how much dmg tier is giving us?
it's gonna be like 2-3
2%
Wtf
im 23% crit 40% mast currently. Im having energy problems in ST. Any tips?
@balmy condor
Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.
- No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
- 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
- You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target
unfortunate, subterfuge is so qol xd
in what way
Just like me fr
for indiscriminate carnage, just easy to mass apply everything quickly
oh wait i cant read
so nvm
remember when resounding clarity was a real talent? i member
Quick question, during CDs should we be spamming envenom? My hunch is yes but wanted to double check given the pooling that exists outside of CDs
Does envenom itself count towards KB too?
envenom does not count towards kb damage, but the buff is important, you should aim to mantain 100% uptime of envenom's buff during kb
Guys not really good with plater and weakaura. Is there a way i can bigger up that 1 icon of deadstalker we have to keep track up sometimes hard to see on what target it went with all the dots on big pulls
!bis
BiS lists are not helpful towards gearing yourself. In order for BiS items to truly be BiS, all items in the list have to be obtained at that level exactly, or else it doesn't make sense. Missing a socket for example would shift your stats slightly. You should always compare your gear through top gear or droptimizer instead.
Pre-raid or Pre-season BiS is especially not helpful, and we do not have any of them. These are absolute meaningless bait for gear that you will be replacing the moment the season comes out. The recommendation is simply to get all your heroic gear to 580 and then craft 590 slots (wrist/belt/rings are good)
Double garroting ST adds to max time still right and buffing it? I forget the term for it. Snapshotting maybe? I haven’t rogued since SL haven’t even played since SL
Double garroting in single target will extend garrote's duration because of pandemic, and it will remain buffed if you are doing it within the imp garrote window, yes.
That is how it mechanically works
It isn't worth doing it though
Really? What changed that

should I level up my off hand with crest?
I kinda miss old Luxthos WA
I mean a lot changes over the course of an expansion with reworks and talent trees
Not like a specific mechanic changed that I know of, just how the APL shakes out
Yea that tracks
Some1 please
No
No
Off hand is the worst investment of all slots
okay thanks. I thought the damage scales if leveled
So i have 3 renown items HEAD SHOULDER CHEST should I use crest on them?
U can
And why would you need a guide for that?
I’m confused
This hasn’t been worth it since 8.3 for the record
can someone take a look at my aoe rotation does this look correct
Watch aoe and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
To know whats worth it to use crests on
With the way the crafting system works, ideally you'd use crests on pieces where you're less likely to see a better item drop. It can be very hard to determine what that will be, so that won't always answer your question, but remember that getting an item at a higher item level means that every other item for that specific slot (Chest, boots, etc) can be upgraded to match that higher item level free of charge. So if you use a crest on a pair of boots and raise it to, say, 580, then you get a pair of boots from a dungeon that are 583, those crests are effectively wasted because the boots you just got fully replace them, and you could have spent the crests on another slot instead
but as stated, you can't really predict what items you'll loot so
it can be hard to plan it out
At this time, with this level of crests, I wouldn't sweat the decision too much
Just pick items with higher item budgets and do those first
(Mainhand weapon, chest/helm/legs, trinkets if they're strong)
Where do I figure out what secondary stats start to cap out at and give back diminishing returns because of the soft/hard cap on them
!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
Yea but at some point stats start to have a soft cap and don’t give full value of the stat anymore and it becomes more valuable to build another stat until all are at that threshold then bump up into soft cap right
and the robot will tell you to wear something else
It depends on the class, but generally you wont have that issue in the first tier of an xpac much
Don’t trust robots, I watched the terminator
Can basically ignore the soft caps entirely
They reduce the value for sure but in the situation where you have 1 really good stat, it’ll still be really good
are we ghonna play echoing reprimand with deathstalker even if they dont fix the bug?
And if you have all good stats like we do, they’re all hitting the cap at roughly the same time
Yes
dont know hwo to play around the mark
Wdym
You play as normal and when you get darkest night you cast a 7cp envenom
Rinse repeat
Most likely a dumb question, but with Deathstalker's mark, am I missing some we reapply this in raid fights, since we use vanish to reapply garrote
darkest night reapplies it
Okay I am dumb LOL
but if u use your blue combo points you dont work towards getting your mark back
no?
on a finisher
thats the supposed bug yes
surely thats bad
It is what it is, i'm even wondering if it is a bug at this point since its not been fixed already. D:
are the sims accounting for this bug?
Yes
Generally all "bugs" are in the sims for all the classes. I think atleast. Thats generally how they do it.
Yeh
idk i have a strong dislike for echoing reprimend because of this issue
Generally if theyre impactful they get added
i stopped playing it in duengons atleast
Whispyr, do you know if blizzard actually acknowlaged that the ER is a bug or not? D:
huh
caustic spatter is always by far my highest overall
its not even close
They haven’t officially said something on forums, no
Bleed execute for me, only time I even get spatter damage is rock boss and boss with the minecarts
So it might just be a "feature" and we're just huffing paint.
u are probably slow then u need to be quick on getting the stuff rolling:p i generally have time to get 2-3 envenoms off in a pack
unless u have someone sending mega cds
like fury warrior
I just carrots rupture until carnage wears off then tempest and everything is about dead
Garrote*
Depends on the group to be fair. In pugs you can get off some envenoms.
When i do it with a static i barly have time to put all the dots up
Maybe reprimand bug will be fixed by raid release 🤔
Will smooth out rotation bit especially if running the mutilate talent
If you’re dooming I guess yeah

Highly doubt it's a feature, would make 0 sense... but then again it is blizzard
ye sometimes i even skip crimson tempest cause its better to rush caustic spatter
I mean its been like 2 weeks since EA. It should have been fixed by this point, but maybe its just overly complicated to sort out. 😄
but u really need to be quick when doing heroic xd
I don't think you ever want to skip CT in AoE. Even for caustic.
if its either getting one gcd of envenom caustic or one crimson tempest tick
i mean im talking if the mob is about to die in 2 seconds
You can 7 point tempest like 2 GCDs from opening with bones pike proc on big pack
There’s no way that’s correct
anyone got weakauras for fatebound coins?
Crimson tempest is an insanely huge button that’s frankly real overtuned atm

Yea tempest is wild asf rn lol
!trinkets
i dont think u guys get the context of what i mean i'm talking
Like 2m dmg per target with 5 stacks of rupture and 5 mobs
sub 3 targets target is about to die in 2 globals
its better for me to caustic envenom over applying CT
Tempest wins everytime over getting a non KB caustic spatter imo
Oh 2 globals
What are the best trinkets if I cant get the egg?
thats the whole point of my argument
Yeah sure, dot not doing anything in 2 seconds makes sense
if u dont have time to get the damage off
But applying caustic over ct ain’t the move
If you’re applying caustic it’s alive long enough
Then the CT damage just goes straight to execute If they are low
ineffiecient tho
Caustic does almost nothing until we get to 7+ keys
Yeah you don’t want to do that
this just feels cooked though?
my caustic is topping my damage in every key in heroiuc duengons
Well I won't say nothing. But just can't go full caustic build until higher keys really
I do hate playing CT fr thi
If CT is tuned the way it is right now you will never ever go a full caustic build
Extra button to press 😂
Yea but now thay I think about it since all passives in deathstalker tree cleave with caustic KB is not as bad if you fk up the splash on lower hp target
CT is even stronger for deathstalker though
For fatal intent?
is that the cleave build?

6 people on that?
That breakdown looks
broken
Very wrong
Kinda sus
You aren't running sudden demise
i am
you're not
?
I mean fuck all the sudden demise, that caustic is 2x what it should be even in a reasonable key
yes?
no
In priory too?
How is your caustic that high and your kb isn’t even on the meter
b ruh its a duengon
you can't be running SD and its doing les than 6% of your damage, unless you're literally not bleeding at all
kingsbane?
Do you know about indiscriminate carnage big dawg? That damage break down is littery impossible if you are garrote and rupture out of stealth
post a ss of your build
Yeah. Kb is like where most of your caustic comes from
There are six people on that damage meter
ye the rogue left after the first pull
one prolly left and got replaced
the other rogue
Aha
I litterly can't think of a single pull in that dungeon in Heroic to get that much spatter damage unless your entire group is afk
i mean
the duengon after
i was playing with a fury warrior
my dmg breakdown was alot different
Bout to get on my rogue and see if I have one saved lol
Where is kingsbane?!!!
10th
No point using KB on packs in Heroic
ye i only use it on bosses
Okay but how is your caustic that high without kb. That doesn’t even make sense
i just
hit alot of envenoms
with caustic?
on aoe?
Watch test and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
A lot more things splash with caustic so that's not too surprising
Obviously KB would be more but there are like 4-5 extra sources for splash damage from hero talents for caustic
Infact litterly every ability in deathstalker tree splashes with caustic
i think caustic is pretty strong on big pull sizes when things die quickly
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
just get your garrotes rupture and a CT up then u just spam highest hp target with envenoms
Because it doesent rely on KB as much it is always strong, but like last season low keys will always benefit more from CT and SD over big KB splatters
i would be curious to see someone else hit the dummy and compare the dmg breakdown
i am sustaining 2.3million dps on the 5 target dummies
this was 2minutes
Yea i don't think people realize how cracked assass desthstalker is gonna scale
Hey guys, im currently at 582ilvl and thinking of crafting my 606ilvl boots, since it shows that Boots and Bracers are BiS to craft on WoW Head, but, not sure if I should hold off? Any advice? Are our slots going to change at all? Or Embelishments?
sim it 
this is what i said the other day
Im holding all sparks for first myth cache
assasination is omega broken people dont realize it yet
for mythic+
our damage profile is just crazy
easily the best out of all specs in the game
I thought it was a bug when I saw every single dmg talent in hero tree splashed 😂
What do you mean people dont realize it? Like 99% of all the m+'ers are saying how broken sin is lol
What sparks? I dont even know if I have one
Sparks for crafting 606 gear
By the time myth cache comes out you should have 2 full sparks
2.5 unless they put one in weekly I think
I just dont know if boots/wrist is going to change for our crafted slots.
i don't know community perception rogue the second least played class i would assume fotm players would go rogue if people thought it was OP but it seems like no one is
I wouldn't craft double spark ring for sure tho
as well as the Dawnthread embelish
Nobody fotm any rogue spec from what I see
I mean even in s3 after sin rework we didn't have a massive surge of new rogues coming in.
Rather go mage/hunter/dk/warrior
i mean i started playing rogue just 5 days ago
I rolled frost dk and that shit is so boring ong
Going back to rogue and monk
mostly everyone just going fdk and fury warrior
Yea all these frost DKs gonna get cucked when they aren't top dps and nobody gives a fk about a grip for a single fight
i am hopeful that because we are underrepresented we will fly under the radar for m+
i was googling around for raid testing videos of assas rogue and cant find much, how do they look in raid? is assas the way to go? still trying to decide on my main luckily blizz gave us a month to figure it out lul
Survival hunter is feeling pretty fun ATM as well
kind of how like enhance shaman was really broken for a long time in dragonflight but no one played it so it was fine
Sub is still strong afaik, outlaw ass, assassing prolly best
pretty competitive in raid?
at least from what has been shown so far
I mean raid isent out and already plenty of changes since beta with more otw. Sub looks fine and assass looks like it will be top for rogue afaik
I'm usually too inebriated to play sub well because I miss my ST window, but it's pretty fun
is there a bug or reason mouseover bleeding isn't working? i have the option enabled and i've even replaced buttons with new ones, garrote and rupture, and the mouseovering still won't work
it worked before the new xpac
Like mouse over macro to apply bleeds?
yes but no reason to have a macro i thought, if you have the option enabled in blizz settings, mouseover should automatically work
which i've had for dragonflight
but it's not working now
I've never used the IG mouse over, I would just try with macros and see if it works
I use the mouseover setting and it has not had any problems for me, it still works.
Have used it since early DF
yeah i've been doing it in dragonflight, it only "broke" with the new xpac
Maybe it’s conflicting with an addon like clique or something?
Not sure what would cause it to break like that
yeah i haven't changed any addons or anything. i can't think of any addons i use that affect my mouseovers. plater? but it's the same
idk what clique is haha
For click casting but blizzard made their own click casting so I don’t know if it’s used much anymore
do you have a log for this
the last time I saw caustic that high it was a scaling bug
espacialy when the Other poison dmg sources are not that high
Does singular focus form a closed loop?
Maybe some interaction with corrupt the blood and singular focus ?
log? but i recorded it xd
no log
Watch aoe and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.

if I'm hunting a bug watching an mp4 doesn't really help much
well why would it be abug xD
are we thinking that raid builds will work similarly to s3 where we're literally swapping caustic in and out for cleave but otherwise sticking to one build?
i'm always doing the same amout of damage on these dummies so guess i'm always bugged then
Because your caustic damage is insane compared to the amount of poison damage you did
because we saw similar happen in dragonflgiht when they added it
and considering things like dawnthread have the same bugs that blue silk did
hold on let me see fi i can log and play again
are we playing Fatebound or Deathstalker in m+/raid?
so its just preferences
going in at level 70 
I think your name is included with your clip btw
for right now mostly yes, in super high end keys singular focus probably makes deathstalker go to
but we're far from that atm
Did you shiv KB I couldn't tell
I'm telling you there is def some splatter bug we haven't found with all these new sources
I'm mostly concerned with the old stuff not the new stuff
new stuff is broken in like 900 ways
Haha
I see thanks
thats okay homie

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.
!deeznuts
how can i even log target dumies?

You can upload your combat log
the txt file works too
but you need to have advanced logging on
in the game settings
@balmy condor what do you think the dps gain will be when echoing reprimand actually triggers the deathstalker stuff? seems like it'll be big, no?
like 2-3%
nooice
it feels SO bad rn
i assume you you prio darkest night finisher over echoing points right?
yeh
and just let the 5 points happen naturally but still finish on the echoing points?
yep
word, thanks (:

What do we drop for this?
did you close and reopen your game
might have to /combatlog
yes and yes
did you delete your log before enabling it like it said 
resounding clarity, the talent after ER
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/qx6hnDNRykzv7Vwr#fight=last&type=damage-done&source=18 okay so the damage numbers are lower cause it kept me in combat for awhile but u should abel to see dmg breakdown
yep thank you
nah that works

Save sprint for running away
it was a s hit pull anyway
i only did 2mil
i normally do 2.3
also why is combat starting here ???
stupid log
Hi guys, is there a Rule of Thumb for Stat distribution?
!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
Did u find anything odd?
Maybe u didnt talent it 
Did u apply it 🤔
Maybe there is no target near (your st) the
How does haste affect my gameplay as a rogue?
did u actualy mut to apply it?
poison went off half-way
haven't looked yet, need to finish some stuff up
Ah
@balmy condor Does anything we have count as ranged
to proc the nerubian venom dart
bone spike
does it proc it
looks like a weird trinket, like what agi specs even have ranged attacks
hunters
some trinket off a rare
i guess enhance too maybe?
So, since we only have 1 shiv in Dungeons now. Do we still use shiv before kingsbane or a few seconds before kingsbane falls off? I cant get my head around it (still learning)
before it falls off, and then on CD
You have 2 if you play bleed
With 8 seconds left if you have 1 charge
Easy solution
just talent out of iron wire
Dont play bleed


I find bleed better for trivial content

Ah well i’m not thinking on spending money on that
Im a "dont care for trivial things" type of guy
So I just run hybrid everywhere
I hate myself slightly less
Even if my less geared alt warrior is better at world content
hey, looking at the WoWhead assass guide its telling me to make my crafted gear stats itemized into mastery and haste instead of crit and mastery. any idea why? would it be because the rest of the gear in the bis list balances out the crit and its no longer worth as much?
if im still gearing should i prioritize crit over haste before im like fully raid and mythic tier jacked?
since our stats are all pretty balanced I don't want people to full send anything
so I hide little shit like that all over the guide
to make sure people don't blindly craft crit mast everywhere
sprinkle a bit of haste here, bit of vers there
and it kinda evens out
ohh okay so the top 3 stats are just like get a lot of each of them and avoid vers?
yeah pretty much
the funny thing is liking every stat should simplify gearing
yet people still complicate it
😂
hahahahh
oh it's insanely braindead yeah
it's basically just equip item level
even if it's vers heavy
and unless you have like a billion of any stat
big number go bigger
you're good to go
man imagine if wow had this ability where you could change the secondary stat on your gear to another secondary stat
is there any target dummies in Dornogal?
yes
not all of it, but like 60% of one stat
yes by the gates
front entrance
cheers ty
reforging is pointless in modern wow tbh
I dont want to because its a dogshit System
pvp zone
Yeah reforging was dumb as hell
any imbalance you might have from gear
I guess you always want bleeds reapplied before going into KB windows on AoE?
you end up just fixing with enchants and gems
ye
well
"reapplied" is a strong word
there's no like duration needed
so if im crafting my first 590 whispyr should i opt for bracers over belt since belt option is better from the guy in raid even tho my current belt is like 5-10% better than my current bracer
probly yea?
but you want to go into it with rup/gar up
Yea I just dont like reapplying the duration while in KB
you'd craft whatever you don't craft this week, next week
I might just be bad tho
so it's whatever
Why would Hekili want me to keep applying garrote after first improved Garrote? Singel target
oh true
reforging only existed cus of expertise back then anyway lol
Bcs hekili sucks

and I didn't even do all the crest side quest stuff or anything
I'm kinda running out of slots to craft
That is true, works for some classes tho
we are not one of them
are those daggers crafted?
wait i might be dumb af
i should craft daggers first huh
the one of the right is yeah
the one on the left is just world quest drop I got week 1
Do we just run double Dawnthread?
Can i call you daddy
is 593 adventurer track or higher
Beause your gear looks like it
sorry for question spamming but u the goat with the responses
I think it's a safe option, but unless they do another big tuning pass probably should go ascension/writhing
fully upgraded adventurer track yes

i should just full upgrade this then no?
Doesnt look like critcap 
you can
i havent crafted gear yet
no reason not to I guess
upgrading costs more weathered crests than crafting
i just Upgraded all gear to 480 and called it a day, wont be throwing out gold for crafted shit 
yeh but I think it's fine for a main hand to upgrade
15 crests more for 3 mh ilvl

For fatebound, do we play CB and Inevitability?
not like any of this matters
yes
i dont think 5-10k for a piece is expensive though
but yeah irrelevant
ill probably make some purely because raiding tuesday sucks
Spec out of Deeper Stratagem or what?
lowkey think I'm crafting for mog next week
heavens no
tbh, you pay for it later cus the gear is "tainted" with low rank materials
which is a real thing

Don’t know I just wait the 15 delves and 8 mm0 to upgrade something I don’t care for 590
wdym
tea and deeper are hard required
Oh are we goign CB over ER? nicee
fatebound
heard Deathstalkers is bugged, so ill try FB and see
not deathstalker, deathstalker still runs er
fatebound you basically play like prepatch
except now you have a coin proc in your details
if you used rank1-2 materials for a craft, and then want to re-craft it later to a higher ilvl (which means higher crafted difficulty)
the low rank materials used will make the craft harder, and its possible that it first needs a recraft with t3 mats to be a "t3 material item" and then amother one for the actual recraft
totally well thought out system with obvious things going on
Ah I see. I guess FB is the play until they fix Deathstalker then

just use t3 materials the first time 
t3 mats for a fucking item that is not even normal raid level
or just make with fresh mats
get help
sick burst if you get lucky as Fatebound

next time
realistically you could just do fresh crafts when prices drop
for real ilvl pieces
ill say it again btw
crafted items is not the Problem this time
ita consumables
consumables are always a problem
