is there any config file u can give me for these settings
i just think q and e are closer and less strain than 1, 3, and 4 so preference aside they make the most sense for "spam" buttons from a purely logical standpoint

Question: how come sin doesn't run subterfuge in the deathmark delve spec?
it doesn't give you damage
Improved garrote exists
The stealth bug has screwed over my death marks a lot
Yeah it's still useful for fixing mistakes but not optimal given perfect play
you're fine to run it anyway
What would you drop for it? I see why you don't but it's so annoying when you don't get the restealth, or some nonsense just knocks you out.
for the UI? its elvui mostly and i don't think i can share it because i'm a cuck and pay atrocity to do all of that for me
for the bindings as far as i'm aware you can't export them, but it wouldn't do much good anyway, you can copy from the screenshot but, as you can tell from everyone else's madness, you really come to your keybinds on your own, just stick to the same principles of what button does what and mess around until it feels right
!craft
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.
hey guys, how do u guys deal with dungeon mobs breaking stealth before u get ur ambush off for assa deathstalker? am i doing something wrong? tank pulls and sometimes mobs break my stealth before i can come close and ambush
Timing
Are the new changes coming soon or are they coming in november with the 20th anni?
Chronicles of a death foretold part 2 lol
i assume reprimand but you can really do anything you want with your talents for delve, it's not a single target patchwerk encounter so there's not really an ideal simulation scenario
you can tailor your build to your playstyle for them
You could just run fatebound
that too
Nothing like the double tails proc from stealth with your sbs critting just one tapping a mob for you
I only saw the sub stuff, how bad is sin getting hit?
Besides the thistle thing

if we stopped dooming about tea its actually a pretty neat buff
im yellow name
the double envenoms during burst will be nice
i only know dooming
Should make it a choice node.
i think realistically its just an indicator about what they want to do with the spec more than what they will be doing
unbinding SnD is what gets me most hot and bothered for the upcoming changes
Each time tea will proc due to being under threshhold you will hear the SnD audio que, so we know what we gained for that loss
sigh, time to go make that a weakaura
When u auto proc
a brit falls over and spills his cup
i really dont get the hyper focus on the tea change
ye i meant the auto proc
Well it doesnt matter. The absolute majority of teas value is in the energy anyway, so even if you "waste" a proc its real not that relevant
the bigger issue is the er icon is ugly
i was just memeing
I love the er icon

Mr Whispyr am i allowed to ask you a degen question

tbh was hoping to see ER deathstalker bug fix but womp womp
hope it is not working as intended
are you any energy starved on any time in a 5 minute dummy fight
im such a pepega on assa it unbelieveable
lol
assn can be pretty chill outside of CDs but last time i played was aberrus sop what do i know
The other day I did a like 45 min dummy fight (pack) (don't ask me why) so no 
Yea on ST you're expected to be energy starved outside of CD, you're mainly chilling
!design
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
assassination rogue is supposed to run out of energy
the rotation is based around uptime
you press envenom when the buff is in pandemic
@balmy condor is your wago pack updated for all 3 specs or is it mostly just sin?
!pooling
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.
darkest night or w/e its called
mark back up is always prio
and on ds you take rapid injection
so even more reason to pool
so i always go for darkest night?
yes
can we use 2x dawnthread?
you choose to play deathstalker because of the mark
ye
reapplying mark is prio over just uptime or you'd be better off not being deathstalker
yes
idk if mine is bugged but its nott giving me double the crit
saw someone earlier say to drop below hp threshold and when you heal back up itll apply both
buff was also bugged (tooltip at least) when i first equipped it yea but at some point after actually playing it fixed
oh yeah that worked
its fine
not the best, not the worst
It has support for trickster and stuff but outside of the base tracking and cleanup I haven’t done anything specifically for the other two specs
whispyr, no more 2nd er talent and double lethality?
other rogue in guild saying this is what does more
Ye
wprd
i noticed in my sims running the 2nd lethality was a massive dps gain i was shocked
Yeah, bugged er will do that
no chance that it is working as intended.. right? 
Im finding myself running out of energy and not sure why c.c

how muchare yall simming?
damn. Okay I felt like I was doing something wrong, and felt like I should be doing something different cuz after I have completed my opener im just sitting there auto attacking the dummy waiting for my envenoim to hit 1 second
It’s like you’re playing classic 
On patchwork im simming 808, but i suck so i prolly cant hit 808k
wtf
im simming for 725 and i feel like im pretty optimized lol
wha
im like 590 with mostly full enchants 30% crit 42% mastery 43k agilli
can u dm your sim
No Dr
does atrophic poison stack with other rogues?
It should not
Not sure if theyve fixed it, but it did stack before
Iron wire def has a DR
But it seems you can stack 2 cuz of bug
did
shoukd we still be pooling envenoms with the 1 sec timer during the opener?
You don't pool during CDs
didnt think so but I wasn't sure. Thanks for all the assistance I really appreciate it
do you only take vicious venoms(if you dont wanna fok in st) on pure st fights or ones with add cleave as well?
Ive watched all your videos and read the guides, Ive been gone from wow since SL and only have ever played mage since BC. So its alot diff than I am used to
lol what the fuck
that's a funny bug
if only 40 man raids were still a thing
turn up to with world boss with 100% atrophic
it's fine in add cleave as well
It stacked/stacks multiplicatively
well they're not additive so that's fine
btw why is Maxroll not a good source for a guide?
So it would never be 100%
comparing it with the wowhead one

!roll
Maxroll's guides are currently facing large scale accusations of plagiarism, are clearly written with AI, and have questionable accuracy. They are not currently suggested as guides; hopefully this will change in the future
well
maybe that's out of date
they admitted to the AI
and then took it out

maybe there's still more AI
maybe there's not
who knows
i was looking at it couse it breaks down bosses
but i don't know how accurate it is
I was seeing your stream, when you checked their rotation guide 😂
if you're just going for boss breakdowns it's probably fine
You could get pretty close with a couple hundred rogues though
but maxroll as a company itself is basically just in the business of signing big names to drive their SEO
their other game guides are pretty much just slop
but they partner with streamers
or echo in this case
for the name recognition
and that's their whole shtick
quality control over there is..... less than ideal
but what can you do
it's meant to get clicks
and slapping a name on a mystery box is good enough
Whispyr, what's your twitch?
linked in my profile
Twitch, what's your Whispyr?
and for the record, I don't have anything against the echo people writing the actual guides
it's a problem with the companies themselves
Indeed, soz, back from party, I'm not really aware
the players writing them are just kinda stuck with it
is that bad for Echo brand image?
idk if you've been online in the last couple weeks
but echo's brand image has bigger issues atm

How come?

dramaaaaa
I love gossiping
I mean first they had qiddiya plastered all over their race to world first race stuff
which ya know
saudi money
is kind of touchy
then one of their raiders had a second accusation of like not really assault but aggression and being weird and shit with an ex gf
and then he responded
and it kinda blew over and was okay
and just seemed like a nasty breakup whatever
and then echo earlier today said there was a THIRD accusation and they got rid of him
they also have since removed all the qiddiya stuff
am I dumb or is the inevitability/cold blood change saying the next two envenoms crit?
i thibk there was a third today
he has been terminated apparently
yes, just like now
can you keep reading please
what is qiddya?
whispyr
I heard there was a third accusation
i wish i couldread
there was a third one today
idk if you knew
yeah
ok thats actually insane stuffs
he has been teminated
But i wanted to tell you that
it's a huge mega-city thing in saudi arabia that's been wrapped up in a lot of worker's rights issues and general saudi-human-rights-womens-rights-other-rights-everyones-rights-nonsense
He was also terminated
kind of messy
terminated ? !
T E R M I N A T E D dude
But is it crafted in the image of a geometric shape?
you guys don't accept their culture 
Did you guys hear he got terminated
Anyone knows if the rings from Queen Ansurek works with Caustic Spatter?
Im deaf. So no I didnt hear it. But I did read he was terminated. Pretty sure.
ah ok thx
items do not interact with class mechanics
thanks
also depends how much you separate the org from the guild as well, like team liquid the organization has also taken saudi money and all that, but team liquid the guild hasn't
but echo is just like
echo
idk exactly what the split is organizationally between like team liquid dota/csgo
and team liquid world of warcraft
but yeah
big messy
you're big messy
I am big messy
i don't think i will ever blame an org for taking money
they are there for the money
yeah but taking 100 dollars from a random guy is kinda different from taking 100 from like a serial killer right
i had a guy who claimed to be a saudi prince offer me money once to teach him how to grow shrooms. highly confusing. if youre a saudi prince im sure you can procure those.
for me it isn't the same but...
hear me out
i dont think saudi money is particularly bad tbh
if you take money from the serial killer, the serial killer is now poorer
We had something similar akin to a saudi oil prince in a guild I was in
Everyone got sent free graphics cards at the end of the tier
Was pretty dank
that's wild
A random wr25 or whatever guild
whispyr pardon being the 100th to ask but as you still recommending reprimand across the board for Deathstalker considering
!dn
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.
There's a command for it
thats crazy @limber lion
point #2
ER good, RC bad

So fast
thats a big command
i also think that one guy doing bad shit shouldn't ruin an org image if they act in consecuence
we have many big commands
but that's copium i guess
Still using the graphics card 
sorry I am in and out
Jealousy?
i feel bad sometimes when i see how long our commands are in outlaw
but then
i just come here
and i feel good again
yeah I legit don't care how long the command is in here
I'll take a free 4070 TI Super any day of the week
I'm just happy I have a command don't need to answer the same fucking question over and over
very valid mister whisperer
Yeah, Assa went from being off-topic to being bot-spam
again sorry figured just had not seen that
you're good
somehow
appreciate everything you guys do, havnt had another rogue in my group for years to bounce shit off of
can't relate, every time I have another rogue in my group it just ends up being the same thing 
"am i crazy" as I am trying to reset combat at the target dummies
Thats right people, the biggest commands, they dont have em, they dont have em as big over in #outlaw do they? No they dont, we have the biggest
i remember the days before discord where it was just the website
seems like we are much more efficient at that since we dont have huge wall of texts ! !
So are we raiding with Dawnthread Lining x2 for now?
outlaw is for zoomers who need icons to keep their attention cuz you cant put procs in text 
we don't make commands for the eye candy zac sorry I don't got 2 emotes in my name to try and be special
fuu added the banana
us boomers far prefer sin
think at this point I'd probably craft a dagger and if you have to recraft to get rid of the embellishment you take the L
i wish i didnt suck horse cock at sin in keys though
but kinda just fucking doomed no matter what you do
cause you already know the moment you craft something
blizzard is gonna come out and go
i wish i did
lol
i kinda miss the tomb of sargaras DfA sub build, and outlaw S1 dragonflight before they made it "less consistant"
im
they change the broken shit
potentially stupid question, but does anyone know if the ring from Ansurek that poison ring, would it work with Caustic Spatter
items don't interact with class mechanics
i just used x2 on cloak and Wrist
nej
Sub in s1 was fun af tbh
and daggers have no embellishment
unlocko, ty kings
me and my embellished dagger reading this

sub is tainted too hard for me for trying to pick it up for smoldy
and then the guild taking 20394820 years to get a kill on him
which embellishment u have in dagger
ascension
I haven't crafted anything or using any embellishments
Can you make the elemental lens enchant proc nature damage so it gets buffed by lingering? 
I'm casual carl
it me
like the thing I said
Yeah I will also wait for crafting
Or is it only a sub thing because shadow
it's a sin thing too I think
I think waiting for M+ to open to get big crafts x2 is gonna be the play
but like fuck if I know or care, too many bugs to keep track of
As in is there a gem that makes it do nature
And hopefully blizz is done tuning by that point
Idk
oh idk maybe emerald?
they're never done
yeah generally agree
you're never safe
and that bug is not even a blip on my radar

I wish I had the time in my day to worry about lingering darkness buffing trinkets
Ye its more impactful on sub because theres a "beacon" type trinket that does shadow
And just a lot more shadow damage in general
Some of my guildies are going ultra tryhard this week and I'm just, unbothered. Who cares about the first week of N/H raid anyways, just gonna play it like it's story mode 
based
Damn instead of telling people to read pins, the man just goes to the pins himself to screenshot the pin he made
based

I think the ultimate bm would be getting like a screenshot application thing that people use in 2024 for some fucking reason
like what's that one
giphy
or some shit
puush?
Gyazo
gyazo
gyazo 🤮
keep saving it as a jpg and get it real deep fried
pin a screen shot of the pin, link to that pin
guys i have news
congratulations
we have again survived another tuning week
could you link pls & ty
why is my launcher blurry
i tho we were getting real news smh
wtf is this blue post o.o
they just killed some tiers
Nerfing tiers and buffing baseline when all tier sets are bad o.o
bro, won't blizzard please think about the poor spreadsheet aggregators
Can't kill what's dead
now they have to re-compile all their useless information
bUT mY SImS!!11!!
it's a bad day to be a google sheets andy
a sheet samuel
a google garret
a google sheet gisela
idk
I'll think of something
you'll get it
2 pc "some of the things you are doing passively get better" 4pc "the thing that got better passively makes this other stuff you do better"
Guys, hear me out. We all need to underperform during heroic week. This will ensure we get buffed too much and we can slam on mythic.
what if i'm using my 2pc %increase as an excuse to funnel all loot towards myself
and now it's bad

they had to make the tiers boring so we could focus on the dramatic changes introduced with hero talents, such as flipping a coin
won't blizzard please just consider the poor spreadsheet aggregators, as well as the poor heroic week loot funnels
F to heroic week loot funnelers
innocent lambs in the slaughter of blizzard tuning
my boy Kaipo with the big brain
I could only dream of seeing a coin flip I have been on the ds train this whole time
just serving the community one idea at a time
I have no idea how to change it
yellow name take
can't reach the role change without acro 
I got the New Member tag from clicking "Ok!"
scuffed
gg

why do i have subtlety trickster role, how did i even get that
i hadn't looked at this discord in ages and when i came back for the expansion i was apparently a streamer
there
roles are kinda broken
someone get rid of sub trickster role from me plz save me
sepsis changed to fate tails automatically and its not removeable
wait, even from there, I can't remove Assassination - Fatebound Tails D:
you probably had a role I edited into trickster
I think you can figure out the reason why that is
Hey guys can u recommend any Assa player that has a good guide out ? just started today with rogue and want to get into it real quick
Hint: there's nothing broken about it
?

Np
Wait, did we get role of shame'd for Sepsis? XD
I don't know a single player
i mean im assuming role stuff will get figured out in the future
Instead of adding 17 new roles, they just edited the existing roles that weren't relevant anymore
Like Sepsis
you guys are all bots designed to keep me trapped in an endless purgatory
I'm in a coma right now
can't wake up
this is my hell
Whats fastest way to get valorstones?
farm wax
kind of a bummer they changed that pet from wax
make your window small and watch a podcast or something
is that the dirt thing?
I saw a screenshots of some guy with like 2500 wax and I almost threw up
that's psychotic
i want capped valorstones but im not getting extra
jesus christ
do you get wax from digging the dirt things?
a ton of it up by the farms in hallowfall
yea
word thanks
a bunch in north east dorn too
i see
real question did they ever unfuck the weird ui shit that got introduced when they did all the ui stuff
I feel baited by the wowhead post tho kekw
the scaling on everything is totally fucked on my rogue vs my monk and ive imported every single profile and hand combed through all the addons trying to figure out why theyre fucked
sorry to hear that I guess
I feel baited because blizzard refuses to release things in a state that let me write guides and theorycraft effectively
but such is life
they're very inconsiderate
if I had a nickel for every bug and oddly unbalanced and underworked thing
I'd have enough money to hire a dev to fix it
i appreciate how carefully you have been to not feelycraft in your videos though
everyone wants absolute answers
yeah I mean I do too
I open my gear page on wowhead and look at embellishments and I'm like
what the fuck are we doing
this expac has been such a fucking mess
it's actually insane
To make matters worse worse we are getting more changes again
yeah I mean it's similar right now with ascension on dagger, but they also said like before the expansion released that they don't want to give a must-play embellishment to a profession
they want them to be competitive
and they nerfed all the embellishments to like dogshit levels
0.5% each or something roughly
weird game of chicken
but then they just leave random embellishments up
that are just clearly giga bis must play
for every spec in the game
and I'm sitting here waiting for them to nerf it
and every blue post just comes and goes
with no changes
so I'm like ???????
do I just
write the guide assuming ER gets fixed? Ascension gets nerfed?
They are waiting for guides to recommend something, and then they'll nerf
Just to bait and switch everyone
do I write the guide on the current game state and just end up fucking changing the guide every other day
like none of these options are any fucking good
Put 8Ball in the guide as a suggestion for crafts
in my m+ video I made the absolute dumbass mistake of pointing out that the stiletto dagger is 2.6 attack speed and has been since it was added in alpha with the first round of professions
and legit the next day after that video
it got changed to 1.8 speed
stupid whispyr

I barely know any rogue players
why would I say something
not many play it in TWW i feel
there are dozens of us
now I got people asking me if the dagger is good cause they saw me say it's 2.6 in a video
man i cant decide on an alt... rogue is just way different than anything else xD
and now it's not 2.6
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Shaman
enhancer?
enahnce and ele are cool atm
i was thinking mage but sitting there hardcasting stuff feels so odd xD
got so hype for a sec
i cant handle cast times
so with next spark we should craft en dagger(so wahat they say now xD)?
how do i always enter the hole in dorn facing the wrong way
So, do we not hit Slice and Dice after the anniversary stuff? lol
at least you enter the right hole
correct
Don't mind -1 button lol

Oh yeah, -2 buttons
You’ve been playing for long enough you don’t need weak auras
bold statement
muscle mammaries
don't say this too loud, you'll attract the doomers screaming about tea change
btw, looks like embelishments are not getting touched?
snd never needed to come back
-# we gotta whisper about the tea change. It's not actually that bad, don't worry. I'm hiding from the raging mob with their pitchforks about how this is apparently the worst thing ever to happen
not yet it seems
I'm sorry, what did I miss here? No SND?
damn nerfs to some tier sets
newest pin
kk ty
and its a couple months off
Can I macro Ambush and Mutilate together or is there a reason to keep them seperate?
Damn blizz really gotta fix deathstalker ER bug, its tilting me
you don't need to
i mean as long as you use a stealth bar, i guess
Im not :'D
rough
am i crazy or was that not always the case when blindside came in
i was thinking about that earlier
my stealth bar is the exact same as my normal bar with the difference of ambush/mut on same button :D
wait doesnt blizzard do this for us now
is the ara-kara trinket any good for sin m+?
yeah you can I was just wondering if there were cases where youd want to press Muti over Ambush
ive had too much soju
there were things
where you didnt want ambush before
but i forgot what
basically always
you want to press ambush to apply deathstalkers mark
and other than that.....
not really a reason to
you can't avoid blindside procs anyway
so nothing to be done there
Question about the nerubian "patch", I can't see to find any information about it as an enchant. Is it an embellishment for crafting? 
Yea you put it as an embellishment on a crafted item
writhing binding
Great, thanks!
when I farm wax do I just turn it in to middles?
Pretty sure blizzard wants us to craft dagger s1
my uncle said that it's intended yah
did they come to you in a dream
craft dagger into nerf sounds disgusting
Stealth can break from:
- Evoker legendary buff expiring and bouncing back to the Evoker.
- Ominous Chromatic Essence trinket on buff gain
- Voice of the Silent Star when wearing it yourself
- Misterweaver soothing mist when talented into Unison
- Blossom of Amirdrassil (trinket) initial hot dropping/spreading
- Vicious brand (Signet trinket self damage)
craft the dagger 
if everyone crafts their dagger itll get nerfed in heroic week
Suprised we havent received any tuning on our tier. I remember them being pretty crappy
@balmy condor is there a rough idea of how much value ascendance loses with shorter fights? I know embellishment simming has been wonky
What if I convince everyone here to craft dagger... and then I craft a belt.
Surely a good plan
not enough to be bad

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
you procced the capstone late and had a very heavily skewed heads flip
am i tabbing around to maintain rupture for aoe/scent of blood?
yes
Yes

Shit
okay ty
also lowkey
so just bad rng or is there any way i can avoid that?
I think you might've lost your delivered doom
at least a couple times
idk what dummy you were hitting, but it's proximity based
so if there's nearby dummies you probably didn't get delivered doom benefit as much as you should
the rng was fine, your damage is close to your sim, it just came from heads flips instead of tails flips
i was under the impression heads was the good flip tbh 
I mean if we're entirely technicl, tails is the better flip
but it's kinda whatever
cause heads isn't a "losing" flip
heads is still really good
Too late I’ve seen it ur fucking done kid
yeah i mean i know both are good i worded it kinda bad but i assumed heads would be the slightly better one
one question
you either get damage instantly on your meter, or everything else does a bit more damage
interesting though
Is there much overall difference in playstyle, difficulty, dps between fatebound and deathstalker for m+ content?
ty 
if a raid boss has some downtime where you can miss the DS mark
will we go fatebound?
or vanish and reapply it is good enough?
fatebound is real easy, deathstalker is also real easy but you gotta juggle the mark a bit and it can be finnicky
idk if that's an issue on any of these
there's an intermission on the second to last
but shouldn't drop mark during it
I mean yeh but it's timed and he does a big cast
you just get the capstone and then apply it to a mob
it's whatever
Playing around DN? Miss me w that
Think the charge + adds is at like 2minutes ish anyway so vanish might be coming up
I've been playing deathstalker and finding it difficult to track things, maybe I'll try fatebound thanks
Is there somewhere I can find info about crafting daggers/bracers and what ascendant means, I have no clue about it but it sounds important
Pins
Sweet ty
no
generally yes
Only way it is an issue is if you have like 1 stack left on the mark and then the boss fucks off and starts zooming around
if you kinda fuck it up you can run into a situation on second to last where you're stuck with the mark on the wrong boss for the intermission
but it's avoidable
Not worth to craft right now, you can get a better one doing heroics. It’s too expansive
yeah true
You shrug and say skill issue
more reason to play fatebound
jk
(That’s going to happen to me multiple times I’m ready to be hurt)
1st boss of mists you're gonna need to play it right
all the issues with the boss/mark are timed boss mechanics
you know when it's happening
Maybe save Vanish instead of using during first Kingsbane?
At least ur safe to reaply
at that point just play fatebound
yea if ur greeding vanish and not using it w ur deathmark u prolly lose damage over fb
like if we're going to be playing badly to try and make a marginally better hero talent work
gonna get a big WA for the debuff and buff lol
literally 
Really? Holy crap
fb sims like 2% worse than ds for my character
and the playstyle is more enjoyable
Who Cares
Good to know, thanks
they're close enough to where playing like a cringelord to try and make sim numbers happen just ain't worth it
^
i like big Envenoms 🙂
I just want to poison
Ngl I think upper quartile of parses will be fatebound over deathstalker, just because it doesn’t have weird gimmicks like mark rn
I get sim is higher, but more I think about this mark the more issues I am seeing lol
Ah ok, higher deviation?
will just have better rng
Ye think I will send prog in fatebound tbh, more fun and I don’t have to think about some stupid mark
Plus that tail flip dmg is no fkn joke honestly
!pooling
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.
so then is it fatebound or stalker for keys
same as it's always been
similiar damage
but if you're salivating over prio damage
you play deathstalker
ya
isnt fb technically like better aoe damage
it just loses the prio so worse overall output

ye pretty much
cool thought so
kinda nice we have 2 options even if both options dont feel the best
some specs hero balance is so shit
ahh ok prio dmg will definetly have its place in some keys im sure. why does all the sims builds use resounding clairty talent if its bugged?
cause I don't want to have to update the guide 3 times a week
and I'm coping that they fix it
cause it's a big fucking problem
thats fair LOL
i really wanna see the dmg breakdown of the #1 parse on some fights that rolled tails 30x in a row or shit like that
the joys of being a rogue
didnt the visual openers also just assume edge case would be fixed when it was bugged
or no
if I updated the gear page with every embellishment hotfix and trinket fix that's happened since early access release
I would've had to edit it
17 times

I just can't be fucked with this expac man
lol war within broke whispyr
the game is
I can't care
It’s gonna be me
I’m high rolling this expack. I called it
fella like me just having a good time playing my favourite spec the assassination rogue
like I just don't have the mental energy to give a shit about embellishments anymore
I'll update the page for heroic week
and then it's whatever
if they nerf the thing I recommend I'll change it
and otherwise who fucking cares
i was doing other things in 10.2 so im only just now experiencing the rework shit 
wasting my time over 0.2% that heroic raiders in the comments complain is too expensive to craft
this is good enough
yeah i just wanna send my sparks lol
anyone who cares is either bad and wont check to see if tuning changed stuff or is actually good and already knows

then do weapon 
Heroic raider diss out of left field
i did my embelishemnts without spark
and who knows if sub gonna end up better for raiding im hoping it doesnt
it would be kinda funny if there was a note on wowhead mentioning how tiny the rank 3 shit is now
for those ppl
not worth tho
mate, you are new to how stupid wow players are
it could be 0,0001%
you would still see endless complaints how its mandatory
I mean it is the target demographic
like, remember DF launch, when we had 2weapon embelishments
top 100 rogues aren't reading wowhead guides
I don’t complain. I’m too rich for that
the teth dmg proc and the bronze wrapings?
the warppings where fucking expensive for a good time, where like 80dps "better" yet people went crazy for them and how its 200% mandatory lol
that's always the thing that gets me is like every race you have some version of the "why did XYZ rogue do ABC thing, I thought it's worse"
and I'm like, yeah
that is worse
but it doesn't matter
WHAT BUT THEYRE THE BEST MOST BIGGEST
and it's just that shit but embellishments
and then same shit for trinkets
it's just exhausting
aight hit me with it , whats the raid spec whats the m+ spec
No matter how often I answer this question, it's still the question I'm asked more than any other. Often I'm asked it right after answering it. I hope this answer is more complete.
feels accurate 12 years later
mate, i know
just the endless barrage of "why are they using vanish and dance different?????" during amidrasill as the most recent one
and trinkets is funny aswell
because "its what they have avaible" is apperantly not a real answer
they must ALWAYS be some giga deep meaning behind stuff
and not just "yeha, they dropped that one and its good/has high ilvl, so they use it"
^ sometimes theres valid reasons to be fair
There's this mythology that came out of ye olden days of this game
ofc, but quiet often there isnt at all
for example, sometimes in race they do things taht are less damage for the rogue, but more damage for the raid due to aug
but yea
that the best of the best players got there from honing in on some intricate incredibly smart workaround and near-exploitive leveraging of game mechanics to be the very ebst because they're the best
that I don't think was ever really true
Players are just players
I see myself in that brown bear and I don't like it
heavy on the "are you a girl in real life"
just cause I like cute emotes

Does any one have a could visual key binds layout that they use?
born to uwu forced to pog
I get two kinds of hate comments
either this
or a philosophical debate on the morals and ethics of gaming in 2024
rogue dev used vanish and dipped
"ass master but not the rogue kind" will forever be a classic
the modern shakespeare
Wtf lmfao
why is one in light mode and the other in dark mode 
cause I'm too lazy to find the comments themselves
ok fair
and I just pulled them from old chats
good ol ricknasty42069yolo got me good with this one too
this is still
bitches hate that I'm cute fr
yeah it's gonna be hard to top
so what's the over under on the ER charged combo points interaction with DN being intentional and the one combo point that works is actually the bug
I believe in the internet though
there is no way it's intentional
to get even worse
when betting on the internet, always aim lower
and then whatever you think is rock bottom
go under that
if in doubt, just check yt comments or twitter
also I have a cut on the inside of my lip cause a pin hit me in the face
and it hurts to drink
and that sucks
so fucking bad
I hate it
go put baking soda on it
cursed is the flesh that binds me
like a paste
it's doomed
liquid contact cement
is this a safe place? cause i low key love the smell of that stuff
depends on what you mean by safe
Fatebound is cool. You can comeback flying around the map with shadowstep
my condolences
the fuck
did you
and got smacked in the face?
you can just play the dracthyr rogue if you wanna fly around 
no I had to like put a belt back on a beltwheel cause it jumped out
no need for the shadowstep hindrance
but there was a bunch of pins
That would be actually cool
so I had to get the pins out of the way
and while I was doing that it like
did a mini-avalanche
i kiss it make it go away?
and they bounced off each other weird
well

and one hit me in the face
they were plotting their revenge ever since that perfect game
well have I got news for you! 11.0.5 🫡
true
I'd kiss you if you were a can of monster energy zero ultra
are you a can of monster energy zero ultra
after a face to face combat with the pins, you need to recover. Apply Vaseline jelly on lips. Lube it

I'm gonna smash my face into a second pin so it's symmetrical

hi heard u were looking for me?







or eat something spicy and let the emotions begin
man why does assa feel like i'm having to manage 100 diff things with weakauras feels so bad man looks so cluttered 😭
!opener
idk, i have a wa package and thats it?
its in wowhead
Yeah but how much is that package tracking/managing
all the needed stuff?
Yeah and i'm saying that it feels like we need to track 100 diff things
if this chat showed me 1thing in the last couple weeks, its that most people hate the dot part of dot specs
gar/rup/ct
technically-not-a-dot-but-similar you have caustic/envenom
Caustic, garrote, rupture, crimson tempest, kingsbane, sorta tea, envenom buff, darkest night buff, technically slice and dice to make sure i have it between packs, if I have PI, shiv charges
this thistle tea change makes me sad
if you don't wanna track dots and buffs and stuff then you play like warrior and press rampage when it glows
or outlaw
and press between the eyes in stealth
and then whatever glows
or ret
and press whatever glows
like there's a ton of options for specs where you just hit the shiny button and don't manage things
so it's nice that assa exists as something where you get to manage things
well that's unfortunate because i hate myself and will force myself to play this spec
self inflicted skill issue then ig
ayo
just like me fr
i just hate weak auras even though they're fun to make
why
yea it sucks but its like whatever
turbo minmax stuff
they should just be reworking or removing thistle tea instead but thats what the ptr is for
experimentation and feedback
surely 🙃
I’m excited for Tuesday. I’m really enjoying assassination 😊 anyone else ?
because it's easier to play during progression
is it really easier if ur getting overwhelmed by its fundamentals
what does easier mean
i mean i never said i was getting overwhelmed
just saying that there is a lot of things to keep track of with weakauras
mm
i mean thats true but thats why you just get a pack idk
i wasnt a wa pack believer until recently but it really is just better than trying to do shit manually lol
whispyr's is really really good
If you just got the weakauras your muscle mind connection isn’t there yet. Wait a week and it’s gonna be second nature to you
I'm super particular about my weakauras so I just make my own
Just kinda how it goes
In DF i used that one kingsbane timing WA though which banged
