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?

cobalt sphinx
#

it doesn't give you damage

#

The stealth bug has screwed over my death marks a lot

cobalt sphinx
#

Yeah it's still useful for fixing mistakes but not optimal given perfect play

#

you're fine to run it anyway

vast patio

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.

# narrow girder is there any config file u can give me for these settings

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

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.

Are the new changes coming soon or are they coming in november with the 20th anni?

Should make it a choice node.

brave stump

#

i think realistically its just an indicator about what they want to do with the spec more than what they will be doing

gritty laurel
#

unbinding SnD is what gets me most hot and bothered for the upcoming changes

brave stump
#

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

gritty laurel

sigh, time to go make that a weakaura

#

When u auto proc tea2 a brit falls over and spills his cup

spice surge
#

You can still use tea

#

The button isnt removed

haughty flicker
#

i really dont get the hyper focus on the tea change

brave stump
#

ye i meant the auto proc

spice surge
#

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

haughty flicker
#

the bigger issue is the er icon is ugly

devout mist
#

True

Upside down coup icon

balmy condor

I love the er icon

tbh was hoping to see ER deathstalker bug fix but womp womp

hope it is not working as intended

brave stump
#

are you any energy starved on any time in a 5 minute dummy fight

#

im such a pepega on assa it unbelieveable

#

lol

hardy wind
#

assn can be pretty chill outside of CDs but last time i played was aberrus sop what do i know

ashen rover
brave stump
#

what was your dps

#

do you know?

#

oh pack

#

nvm

ashen rover
#

Yea on ST you're expected to be energy starved outside of CD, you're mainly chilling

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
novel star
#

assassination rogue is supposed to run out of energy

#

the rotation is based around uptime

#

you press envenom when the buff is in pandemic

pliant terrace
#

@balmy condor is your wago pack updated for all 3 specs or is it mostly just sin?

brave stump
#

ye my problem is

#

when to go for hero talent

#

and when just maintenance

ashen rover
#

!pooling

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.

brave stump
#

darkest night or w/e its called

novel star
#

mark back up is always prio

#

and on ds you take rapid injection

#

so even more reason to pool

brave stump
#

so i always go for darkest night?

novel star
#

yes

deft vault
#

can we use 2x dawnthread?

novel star
#

you choose to play deathstalker because of the mark

brave stump
#

ye

novel star
#

reapplying mark is prio over just uptime or you'd be better off not being deathstalker

novel star
deft vault
#

idk if mine is bugged but its nott giving me double the crit

gritty laurel
#

saw someone earlier say to drop below hp threshold and when you heal back up itll apply both

novel star
#

buff was also bugged (tooltip at least) when i first equipped it yea but at some point after actually playing it fixed

orchid cedar
#

monkahmm i'm trying some ST dps checks at the dummy

#

isn't our ST dmg like crap?

how muchare yall simming?

junior isle
#

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

does iron wire have DR

#

do silences have DR

deft vault
#

im simming for 725 and i feel like im pretty optimized lol

does atrophic poison stack with other rogues?

iron carbon
spice surge
#

Not sure if theyve fixed it, but it did stack before

snow kindle
#

Iron wire def has a DR

iron carbon
#

But it seems you can stack 2 cuz of bug

junior isle
#

shoukd we still be pooling envenoms with the 1 sec timer during the opener?

shy pecan
#

You don't pool during CDs

junior isle
#

didnt think so but I wasn't sure. Thanks for all the assistance I really appreciate it

true rapids
#

do you only take vicious venoms(if you dont wanna fok in st) on pure st fights or ones with add cleave as well?

balmy condor
#

cds are for doing damage

#

should be trying to do damage, not trying to conserve

junior isle
cobalt sphinx
#

that's a funny bug

#

if only 40 man raids were still a thing

#

turn up to with world boss with 100% atrophic

balmy condor
spice surge

It stacked/stacks multiplicatively

#

btw why is Maxroll not a good source for a guide?

spice surge
#

So it would never be 100%

orchid cedar
#

comparing it with the wowhead one

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

balmy condor
#

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

orchid cedar
#

i was looking at it couse it breaks down bosses

#

but i don't know how accurate it is

kindred cobalt
balmy condor
#

if you're just going for boss breakdowns it's probably fine

cobalt sphinx
balmy condor
#

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

iron carbon
#

Whispyr, what's your twitch?

balmy condor
#

linked in my profile

errant swallow
#

Twitch, what's your Whispyr?

balmy condor
#

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

iron carbon
#

Indeed, soz, back from party, I'm not really aware

balmy condor
#

the players writing them are just kinda stuck with it

orchid cedar
#

is that bad for Echo brand image?

balmy condor
#

idk if you've been online in the last couple weeks

#

but echo's brand image has bigger issues atm

iron carbon
#

How come?

#

I love gossiping

balmy condor
#

I mean first they had qiddiya plastered all over their race to world first race stuff

#

which ya know

balmy condor
#

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

prisma coral
#

am I dumb or is the inevitability/cold blood change saying the next two envenoms crit?

balmy condor
#

but yeh

#

it's been a rough week

silk bane
#

he has been terminated apparently

balmy condor

what is qiddya?

silk bane
#

oh

#

bsed

#

I heard there was a third accusation

silk bane
#

i wish i couldread

might have been today

#

and apparently he has been terminated

#

idk if you knew

#

no way man

silk bane
#

yeah

quick echo
#

Whispyr, did you know there was a 3rd accusation?

#

Idk if you know

midnight mist
#

ok thats actually insane stuffs

silk bane
#

he has been teminated

quick echo
#

But i wanted to tell you that

balmy condor
# keen tree what is qiddya?

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

quick echo
#

He was also terminated

balmy condor
#

kind of messy

midnight mist
#

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.

balmy condor
hexed tartan
#

thanks

orchid cedar
#

well all clear now

#

Will we see Rogues in the world frist race? 🙂

#

i hope so

balmy condor
#

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

grave ivy
#

you're big messy

balmy condor
#

I am big messy

orchid cedar
#

i don't think i will ever blame an org for taking money

#

they are there for the money

balmy condor
#

yeah but taking 100 dollars from a random guy is kinda different from taking 100 from like a serial killer right

orchid cedar
#

considering we are dealing with different world points of view

#

is not that simple

severe sparrow
#

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.

orchid cedar
#

for me it isn't the same but...

severe sparrow
#

hear me out

keen tree
#

i dont think saudi money is particularly bad tbh

severe sparrow
#

if you take money from the serial killer, the serial killer is now poorer

orchid cedar
#

all the right thingy is something debatable here

#

for them...

limber lion
#

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

balmy condor
#

that's wild

limber lion
#

A random wr25 or whatever guild

prisma coral
#

whispyr pardon being the 100th to ask but as you still recommending reprimand across the board for Deathstalker considering

limber lion
#

!dn

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

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

balmy condor
novel star
#

i mean im assuming role stuff will get figured out in the future

limber lion
#

Instead of adding 17 new roles, they just edited the existing roles that weren't relevant anymore

#

Like Sepsis

balmy condor
#

you guys are all bots designed to keep me trapped in an endless purgatory

I'm in a coma right now

was about to log in to do wax right now actually

I saw a screenshots of some guy with like 2500 wax and I almost threw up

mhm i see

severe sparrow
#

real question did they ever unfuck the weird ui shit that got introduced when they did all the ui stuff

clever perch
severe sparrow
#

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

balmy condor
#

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

whole sand
#

they're very inconsiderate

balmy condor
#

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

prisma coral
#

i appreciate how carefully you have been to not feelycraft in your videos though

#

everyone wants absolute answers

balmy condor
#

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

prisma coral
#

s1 dragonflight the neck was such an obvious choice

#

before you could craft it

tall jay
#

To make matters worse worse we are getting more changes again

balmy condor
#

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

prisma coral
#

weird game of chicken

balmy condor
#

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?

void mesa
#

They are waiting for guides to recommend something, and then they'll nerf

#

Just to bait and switch everyone

balmy condor
#

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

void mesa
#

Put 8Ball in the guide as a suggestion for crafts

balmy condor
#

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

now I got people asking me if the dagger is good cause they saw me say it's 2.6 in a video

spring prawn

man i cant decide on an alt... rogue is just way different than anything else xD

balmy condor

Im not :'D

balmy condor

prisma coral
#

am i crazy or was that not always the case when blindside came in

#

i was thinking about that earlier

balmy condor
#

can make a macro for like [stance:1] ambush

#

or something

spring prawn
#

my stealth bar is the exact same as my normal bar with the difference of ambush/mut on same button :D

severe sparrow
#

wait doesnt blizzard do this for us now

tough basalt
#

is the ara-kara trinket any good for sin m+?

cobalt bronze
#

yeah you can I was just wondering if there were cases where youd want to press Muti over Ambush

severe sparrow
#

ive had too much soju

#

there were things

#

where you didnt want ambush before

#

but i forgot what

balmy condor
#

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

supple pelican
#

Question about the nerubian "patch", I can't see to find any information about it as an enchant. Is it an embellishment for crafting? think_cat

onyx mesa

Yea you put it as an embellishment on a crafted item

Great, thanks!

craft dagger into nerf sounds disgusting

balmy condor

!stealth

!stealthbreak

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)

Suprised we havent received any tuning on our tier. I remember them being pretty crappy

bleak ledge
#

@balmy condor is there a rough idea of how much value ascendance loses with shorter fights? I know embellishment simming has been wonky

void mesa
#

What if I convince everyone here to craft dagger... and then I craft a belt.

#

Surely a good plan

real solar
#

!wa

balmy condor
#

fight would have to be like

REALLY short

any ideas on this? im loosing my mind

#

okay ty

balmy condor
#

also lowkey

magic dust
balmy condor
#

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

balmy condor
magic dust
#

so im not going insane

#

feels good

#

ty

novel star
#

i was under the impression heads was the good flip tbh Hmm

balmy condor
#

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

spice spire
novel star
#

yeah i mean i know both are good i worded it kinda bad but i assumed heads would be the slightly better one

orchid cedar
#

one question

balmy condor
#

you either get damage instantly on your meter, or everything else does a bit more damage

novel star
#

interesting though

golden matrix
#

Is there much overall difference in playstyle, difficulty, dps between fatebound and deathstalker for m+ content?

novel star
#

ty Okay

balmy condor
#

moms spaghetti

orchid cedar
#

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?

balmy condor
balmy condor
#

there's an intermission on the second to last

#

but shouldn't drop mark during it

deep sorrel
#

First boss starts charging no

#

Sounds like a perfect time for it to drop

balmy condor
#

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

spice spire
#

Playing around DN? Miss me w that

deep sorrel
#

Think the charge + adds is at like 2minutes ish anyway so vanish might be coming up

golden matrix
#

I've been playing deathstalker and finding it difficult to track things, maybe I'll try fatebound thanks

novel star
#

do any bosses have 30 straight seconds of downtime

golden matrix
#

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

placid adder
#

Pins

golden matrix
#

Sweet ty

novel star
#

so its a non issue

balmy condor
#

generally yes

deep sorrel
balmy condor
#

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

regal bluff
novel star
#

yeah true

novel star
#

more reason to play fatebound RIPBOZO jk

spice spire
#

(That’s going to happen to me multiple times I’m ready to be hurt)

cobalt sphinx
#

1st boss of mists you're gonna need to play it right

balmy condor
#

all the issues with the boss/mark are timed boss mechanics

#

you know when it's happening

regal bluff
balmy condor
#

and you just get used to it on prog

#

and it'll be fine

regal bluff
#

At least ur safe to reaply

balmy condor
#

at that point just play fatebound

novel star
#

yea if ur greeding vanish and not using it w ur deathmark u prolly lose damage over fb

balmy condor
#

like if we're going to be playing badly to try and make a marginally better hero talent work

orchid cedar
#

gonna get a big WA for the debuff and buff lol

balmy condor
#

just don't play the marginally better hero talent

#

it's that easy

novel star
#

literally simyoself

novel star
#

fb sims like 2% worse than ds for my character

#

and the playstyle is more enjoyable

#

Who Cares

regal bluff
#

Good to know, thanks

balmy condor
#

they're close enough to where playing like a cringelord to try and make sim numbers happen just ain't worth it

novel star
#

orchid cedar
#

i like big Envenoms 🙂

mystic osprey
#

I just want to poison

novel star
#

i like big envenoms (cb crits) more than big envenoms (overcapping for dn)

#

:3

deep sorrel
#

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

balmy condor
#

I think you're probably right but not because of that

#

it's far simpler than that

balmy condor
#

it's just fatebound can high roll

#

more than deathstalker

#

so top logs

deep sorrel
#

Ah ok, higher deviation?

balmy condor
#

will just have better rng

novel star
deep sorrel
#

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.

strange python
#

so then is it fatebound or stalker for keys

balmy condor
#

same as it's always been

#

similiar damage

#

but if you're salivating over prio damage

#

you play deathstalker

novel star
#

ya

#

isnt fb technically like better aoe damage

#

it just loses the prio so worse overall output

balmy condor
#

ye pretty much

novel star
#

cool thought so

#

kinda nice we have 2 options even if both options dont feel the best

#

some specs hero balance is so shit

strange python
#

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?

balmy condor
#

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

balmy condor

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

novel star
#

i was doing other things in 10.2 so im only just now experiencing the rework shit Okay

balmy condor
#

wasting my time over 0.2% that heroic raiders in the comments complain is too expensive to craft

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

balmy condor
#

yeah and then it was bugged

#

and then lariat

#

and gg

royal lantern
#

like, people throwing out 50k for 80 SIM DPS

#

and telling you "IT MATTERS!!!!"

balmy condor
#

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

hoary isle
#

aight hit me with it , whats the raid spec whats the m+ spec

fickle lotus
#

feels accurate 12 years later

royal lantern
#

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"

silk bane
#

^ sometimes theres valid reasons to be fair

slate crown
#

There's this mythology that came out of ye olden days of this game

royal lantern
silk bane
#

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

slate crown
#

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

royal lantern

all the needed stuff?

fickle lotus

Yeah and i'm saying that it feels like we need to track 100 diff things

balmy condor

that's what you get for playing a dot spec

#

you have to manage dots

junior aurora

aint there like

#

what else u trackin

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

gar/rup/ct
technically-not-a-dot-but-similar you have caustic/envenom

junior aurora
#

fair

#

i forgot the aoe stuff

balmy condor
#

idk, like there's a lot to track for sure

#

but that's like

#

the whole point

fickle lotus
#

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

wise plume
#

this thistle tea change makes me sad

balmy condor
#

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

fickle lotus
#

well that's unfortunate because i hate myself and will force myself to play this spec

junior aurora
#

self inflicted skill issue then ig

fickle lotus
#

i just hate weak auras even though they're fun to make

novel star
#

turbo minmax stuff

#

they should just be reworking or removing thistle tea instead but thats what the ptr is for

i mean i never said i was getting overwhelmed

just saying that there is a lot of things to keep track of with weakauras
