@grim jay I got another report for you

spice spire
#

Idk man I’ve had marks just ripped from me and it’s pretty sick

#

One thing i’m trying to log is if I place mark on target with DN active and I use the final part of the mark on a full finisher envenom, I just end up with no deathstalker stacks

#

Pretty wicked stuff

#

:^)

cobalt sphinx
#

yeah apparently dn vs 1 stack will lose your mark

#

that one sucks

is the trinket list from wowhead good or just sim?

Always sim

But should be good pending sweeping changes

right now, fb is just objectively better, but when they fix DS, its another talk

ive got the sac, empowering crystal and the candle stick, sac+candle sims best but idk if i use it good enough to justify xd

is there a button shadowstep kick macro on mouseover?

#

the problem with mouseover on kick in the same line of the macro is that sometimes the cursor gets moved off target when u step

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.

wait is bugged deathstalker simming more than fate?

fair coyote
#

do the current sims available take into account DS bug or do they assume how it should work?

spice spire
#

Unlucky

zealous wolf
#

or do the sims not consider bugs?

tame nymph
#

I was just about to ask this. Do we know if sims are still bugged for sin or not? ran a sim for both sin and outlaw using highest parsing ST builds and the difference is...large.

which weapon enchant on dagger for assa bis enchant is not aviable at this point

deep wave
#

does this mean i should recast garrote etc to have 2 stacks on the enemy or just that garrotte now deals x2 damage

cobalt sphinx
#

it duplicates existing dots

#

and freshly applied ones

#

i think

marble hemlock
#

yep

#

the moment you cast it, your garrote and rupture will be duplicated, no need to re-apply

#

and itll also inherit any bonus damage effects aplying to it, i.e. the bonus damage from improved garrote will be active on both garrotes

guys, do we have a trinket tier list besides the bis ones?

It is possible...I'm too dumb for Rogue lol

What about Druid in feral stances?

#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

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
dim yacht
#

do we use crimson tempest on single target if talented into it? looks like it does more than rupture?

young dust
dim yacht
#

why is that? looks like it does around double the damage of rupture

#

according to tooltip, at least

slate crown
#

tooltips

ripe umbra
#

Is Echoing reprimend bugued with Crimson tempest? Its just giving 16 sec and not 23

slate crown
dim yacht
#

my tooltip says 6 cp rupture does 626k over 28 seconds, and that ct does 769k over 16 seconds

#

so is the tooltip just straight up wrong

spice surge
#

Yes, tooltips are very unreliable

#

And often miss out on a lot of effects

dim yacht
#

what a pain

young dust
dim yacht
#

so ct only on 2+ targets then?

young dust
#

lmao

iron carbon

#

forgot were still playing pre alpha

#

cheers

#

our hero talents will be fixed by release right?

iron carbon
dim yacht
#

...right?

young dust
#

might not be combo point efficient as well considering the low duration

dim yacht
#

it says it does triple the damage of my envenom

#

lol

#

love it

jolly holly
#

is the signet from priory a good farm before next week?

dim yacht
#

so what about 7 cp finishers? all the tooltips only tell us what happens at 6cp, but they still consume 7

#

so i assume they still count as 7cp finishers, and the tooltips are once again just not accurate?

spice spire
#

Yes

iron carbon
#

Yes

spice spire
#

Tooltips are pepelaff

Its not a new thing that tooltips suck btw

new to assa

But it's damages and duration per CP

I also didn't find in the guides if you guys macro tea with deathmark

also CT doesnt do any upfront damage anymore right? is the tooltip right on that part atleast?

!POISON

prisma monolithBOT

You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:

Lethals:

  • Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
    Non-Lethals:
  • Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB

Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used

dim yacht
#

so no reason to spam CT in aoe anymore

#

does Outlaw really going to be far superior to the 2 other specs like the fuu sheets shows or is it because of the bugs / simc not being accurate or fully up to date ?

iron carbon
#

Outlaw sim really high, yes

iron carbon
young dust
#

so from my understanding tea is when

shiv on deathmark
energy starved?

royal lantern
#

yes

#

not the deathmark part

#

tea when you use shiv and it gives 100energy

#

thats all

!craft

prisma monolithBOT
#

You can freely use weathered crests to craft any 590's you'd like. Preferences currently are wrist/belt/rings.

The current "best" embellishment is Ascension on a dagger with a nerubian patch on wrist. This is very overtuned compared to other embellishments and nerfs/buffs are expected.
The current "safe" embellishment to craft is dawnthread on wrist/belt, as this will most likely be generically good.
Blizzard has been tuning embellishments near daily since the expansion has come out. Because of this, IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO CHASE BIS EMBELLISHMENTS OR USE SPARKS CURRENTLY
Towards the start of raid release recommendations will update everywhere.

at any point during the 5 sec shiv window, right?

#

if we garrote from stealth, should we wait till it almost runs out instead of refreshing it on pandemic timer, or will the new application still benefit from the increased dmg

Wait until almost runs out

the other 50% is so they could launch the pally tier2 remake.

!hero

prisma monolithBOT
#

Both Hero Talents are viable in all content, and are within 2-5% of each other.
Fatebound: Instant damage, is easy to play, can remove some buttons from the rotation, little to no added gameplay
Deathstalker: Introduces gameplay, Singular focus adds big priority damage, suffers from bugs and marks being hard to juggle in easy content like heroic/m0 dungeons

amber blaze
#

so you always start from stealth with ambush playing Nightstalker ?

iron carbon
#

Correct if you don't have DN buff

balmy condor
#

Yeh the kind of part is the trouble

#

Why is it an issue?

balmy condor

I tried that too but there’s some auto-centering that happens

So you still get the stutters

Idk

I ripped that logic out of your plater and it stuttered

Do you also have the aura reorder?

Because by default it appears in its normal slot

distant moon

#

So you have to set use aura reorder script as well

#

to make sure it's the lowest in the order

#

So it never appears in front of the other debuffs

#

Hey guys

#

I see ytb video where people played with 2 vanish

#

On mm+

#

Was nerfed ? Why we prefered play with the kyrian spell

spice spire
#

2 vanishes equates to 2/4 extra casts across a 40 minute dungeon

#

It doesn’t have separate cooldowns

#

So If you use both in 45 seconds, your second charge comes back in 3:15 from the first

sour oasis
#

Hmm ok

spice spire
#

Not 2 minutes after the second cast

sour oasis
#

So not a good value

#

Thanks for your help

spice spire
#

Generally no

If you’re super coordinated and will need CDs after a large pull

#

Could see worth

Some fancypants use it for utility or whatever

But 99% of time

instead of damage

#

No

#

Yeah

but if you want maximum damage, don't play it

To get the mark rolling

As Deathstalker

If you play Fatebound, no

sour oasis

Yeah i understand

But you have to choose the good one

limber lion

Fatebound is the good one

because it's not a buggy mess

and you do maximum damage without the game fucking you up

opener is fine i just cant piece together the pieces to keep the dps rolling until the next window - so many questions, ie am i saving energy to roll a few envenoms, am i pooling a bit before kingsbane, do i just spend energy as i have it and then pool for kingsbane - watched the hour long video whyspyr chucked up but it seemed to focus mainly on the opener - highly likely i missed a few key points though

Both Hero Talents are viable in all content, and are within 2-5% of each other.
Fatebound: Instant damage, is easy to play, can remove some buttons from the rotation, little to no added gameplay
Deathstalker: Introduces gameplay, Singular focus adds big priority damage, suffers from bugs and marks being hard to juggle in easy content like heroic/m0 dungeons

Yo, just got myself pretty much pre bis, stats and all, currently wondering if its just me that feels slighty energy starved with the serious lack of haste my simcs are convincing me to get?

empty viper
#

what hero talent do we play in raid?

#

DS or Fate?

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

oh thx didnt know about that

Okay, so we are pooling a little more to extend evnenom, gotcha

empty viper

should have done it earlier

slate crown
prisma monolithBOT

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.

safe shale

Shit, thanks for that :D!

hushed marten

Can anyone tell me how much of each % I need to achieve?

empty viper
prisma monolithBOT
#

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

!craft

prisma monolithBOT
#

You can freely use weathered crests to craft any 590's you'd like. Preferences currently are wrist/belt/rings.

The current "best" embellishment is Ascension on a dagger with a nerubian patch on wrist. This is very overtuned compared to other embellishments and nerfs/buffs are expected.
The current "safe" embellishment to craft is dawnthread on wrist/belt, as this will most likely be generically good.
Blizzard has been tuning embellishments near daily since the expansion has come out. Because of this, IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO CHASE BIS EMBELLISHMENTS OR USE SPARKS CURRENTLY
Towards the start of raid release recommendations will update everywhere.

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.
