I was gonna say, this just adds to the duration of everything? Or was there something else
Nah def not

Darkmoon Sigil Ascension (dagger) + Writhing Banding (wrist) is generally "the best" in raid, but has ramp time and is worse in m+
2x Dawnthread (wrist/belt) is generally the best in m+ and not far behind of Ascencion/Banding for raids. Equal in single target at 80% uptime
Craft a dagger if you're unlucky and don't get one and are down bad and crying about your pathetic little 580 main hand dagger. Put Ascencion on it
If you have a big dagger in your main hand already read the above and pick whatever you prefer
12 seconds. I vanish. 12 more seconds. I’m taking second vanish charge. 12 more seconds. I’ve only pressed garrote for 36 globals.
You can’t stop me


Pocket Grenades proc, instantly turning the mobs into pink mist
I wipe them off my sunglasses and swallow the butt of my cigarette
Yoo, about the "dagger" why i dont see anyone talking about this dagger > https://www.wowhead.com/item=222463/siphoning-stiletto ? That have some issues or idk?
This epic dagger has an item level of 577. It is crafted. In the Daggers category. Added in World of Warcraft: The War Within. Always up to date.
its really bad
thats all
lol
"the stilletto dagger got changed from 2.6 speed to 1.8 speed. Maybe this makes it viable, not sure yet. (Edit: It's awful don't craft it)"
cool idea, but does no dmg
from pins
It also has self damage
since i got 603 wrist/belt from delves, and i have shit 580 daggers should i craft daggers?
Crafting a dagger isn’t a bad idea
Oh true
another big thing
so the subterfurge change is that it adds duration to things that already interact with breaking stealth? So Indiscriminate carnage would be 12 seconds total if you take 2 points of subterfurge, for example?
If I'm reading it right?
Sub finally, FINALLY gets some fixes
yeah
might be really good but it seems kinda like situational? idk
Yes
Pretty sure it's just 6s + 6s
6s for the actual effect like you would get now
And then the 6s from the lingering effect
kk
Yeah i think all algari competitor gear is 610 with purple crests
it makes it not literally do nothing for sin at the very least
Yeh
Is there an easy way to get the conq. for the crests?
Probs a Subterfuge angle for M+ at least
That's cool
Some use for it
0kewl was ahead of his game
Hello all, where does one get bubbling wax
playing Without a Trace
how much value is continued ic over starting caustic burst, i guess hella in m+ but depends pull size 
I got the quest to give 9 crests on my 5th skirmish win
also the echoring reprimend changes + new supercharged combo point stuff reads like "yo that talent is broke as hell and we can't figure out why, so we're making a new one that doesn't use the legacy code"
the siphoning stiletto is bad, right?
Anyone else can't see any groups in the group finder mythic 0
There's a quest in the inn in ringing deeps that lets you pickpocket it off a nerds
Yes
interesting subterfuge change
I swear Darkest Night somethings just vanish from existance upon appearing
if pull is 6 mobs or smaller you’re spending a lot of talents on subterfuge for no gain in that pack
scary!
Anybody know what embelishments we are crafting?
tyty I'll try that it sounds easy imo
also er changes
Ty can’t believe I didn’t see this quest
bigly patch notes
Yep

shiv giving you the ER points seems kinda bad though no?
Why
how does lightweight shiv interact with it
it's a question mark above a grate in gundrak or whatever that ringing deeps town is called
Just free anima cp right
Where are the new ones?
I mean we can't know for sure if it's a smart system and it targets slots that aren't anima'd
What if it was called anime charged and it put jpegs of anime girls on your screen when you consume them
Or if it's just rng
Who knows if we have to try to hit the animacharged points first before shiving again
All down to testing
I'm sure theres an addon for that already
is this any good? Or the pheromones trinket is better?
What if it was anime charged and you just got thrown in jail for liking anime
Personally not happy about
changes because I like the button myself, but this is a good way to keep the animacharged concept while reducing keybinds which is a noble goal.
ty!
This is also good
yeah im not opposed to it
i have too many free keybinds now though
what am i supposed to do
if they make it stackable i think it works fine
basically a 4p ER on 60s cd instead of 45
Puntable Marmot on CD
if the 2 charged are wasted on 2nd shiv every cd window
Anyone else can't see any groups in the group finder mythic 0

Do you have any filters set?
Just filters for tank
6s cheap shot duration + subterfuge looking actually useful means i might have to bind that button again
Double check it's not set to m+?
You can't LFG a M0. You have to make a group and walk in. Check the dungeon groups tab
based
But thanks, moment I removed filters groups appeared
Rogue should be able to pickpocket gold from players
How much gold to craft waist and dagger with spark ?
Funky!
are we going to have an insane IC window now?
i assume it'll be 12 seconds with subterfuge yeah
It's not gonna change too too much
tbf, how much bleeds do you wanna apply lol
You were already able to spread most bleeds with the previous one
how many bleeds do you need
bro I want everything bleeding
But the 12s MA + IG is dank
so is assass worst rogue spec for raid?
Actually making Subterfuge and MA useful in Mythic+
12s MA almost covers entire kb
Very cool
like, what pulls do you have where 2x garrote->2x rupture->maybe 1-2 garrote is NOT allready everything dotted full 
can you run two dawnthread embellish?
yes
yes
!dawnthread
Dawnthread has the same bug as Blue Silk Lining from Dragonflight where it fails to stack.
In order to fix it and trigger your second Dawnthread, take damage to drop under 80% health, then heal back up.
do you think the supercharged combo point will work with DN?
Probably
or is it still gonna have to be natty max
that seems to be the intention
Was anyone able to solo a 8 delve as assass?
Im to just craft next week when things settle out lol
it'd be tight if it was
Deez nuts????
Yes
I was strugglin harrrd at the last boss
Would be very weird if instead of changing the bug, they introduce new talents, that still share the same bug from before
Sounds like a fever dream
Do you have bran as healer or dps?
wouldn't put it past blizz tbh lol
So I missed the convos about it most likely, but subterfuge change doesnt seem like itll matter much to us
Ok Whispyr taking 20 mins to type out a pin again
I don't want to read the notes
the trickster changes for law are kinda pog
i want whispyr to tell me how to feel
Time to go to bed and read it when I wake up
Auto tea, auto ER, auto SND, what’s next
Tricks bran, figure out which casts do the most dmg and prio those, bran I've completed with both healer and DPS, run arrowhead
the anticipation i feel whenever i see whispyr typing a pin can not be matched
And just burst
its not auto tea by a long shot
Hey lads, i did raid tonigt and my overall max dps was 560 while DKs and DH/hunt did the double of it. Im alone struggling ?
tricks bran! i didnt even think of that! cheers!
warm and fuzzy
(it reads all positive)
also lol at thistle tea auto activating at 30 now
((i would still like a chose 1 node for tea auto activation))
is this thing decent at all (apparently it's not properly implemented in raidbots??)
i have to play the er changes
do we upgrade 593 gear from m0 or we save it?
It's a win win
[ASMR] Whispyr Reads You The Assassination Guide And Tucks You In
Idk because idk if im reading right LOL
im waiting for whispyr
:3
Supercharged is the new ER
We all are
eh, its a controversial ability, rogue has a stigma for beeing a bloated class, so its a kinda elegant change to not fully remove it but removing the button itself
stigma balls lmao
and still no echoing blades continues holding breath
Supercharged is adds 2 combo points
ER max combo points

ER adds 1 combo point
Says on the tooltip supercharged adds 2 combo points worth to finishers
Upgrade everything you got except runic crests
Shit don’t matter
ER anima charged combo points don’t treat the finisher as 7cp?
These changes sound cool
Supercharged combo points just add 2x so if It highlights 2nd combo point it hits like a 4cp finisher
Is ascension on dagger just as good if on an offhand?
yeah no way it's gonna supercharge 2nd or 3rd
That would be lame as all hell
so, hard doubt
That’s what the notes say
The only change that is weird to me, is changing how ER works entirely but still calling it ER.
That's literally what the notes say yeah
Echoing Reprimand Rework:
- You can read it as "shiv empowers your next (1/2) finisher(s), causing them to act as if they were cast with 2 additional combo points (3 with the talent).
- Instead of echoing reprimand, it's a two point talent for 1/2 finishers
- Instead of resounding clarity, the effect goes from 2 additional cp to 3 additional cp
- Instead of reverberation, mut will deal additional damage after consuming a supercharged cp
- No longer need to finish on specific combo points (no mini game)
- In general this is just full passive, bigger burst, bigger envenoms during shiv (hello twist the knife), and these are intended to count for deathstalker interactions as well as per the dev note very clearly stating "any ability that scales with combo points spent"
- No more minigame, no more button, same style
Cheap shot
- change is nothing, we won't press it most likely, gg.
- that being said, subterfuge makes it maybe possibly sometimes usable in some situations perhaps. Niche as hell
Subterfuge
- Now extends effects, instead of overlapping them
- 6 second base + 6 second subterfuge = 12 seconds on imp gar, iron wire, master assassin, carnage
- Can be REALLY good, or really meh
- Previously the 10 second carnage duration wasn't really used much, nerfing it to 6 didn't do anything negative. Can improve imp garrote uptime but is pretty minor for garrote damage on first glance. With how many mobs we pull and already garrote, most will end up being wasted probably anyways
- This can give a bit of control back though and allow for crazy iron wire silences (I'm frankly expecting more nerfs to iron wire)
- Without a trace maybe good now?

Fatebound Edge Case
- Fixes the lame cold blood interaction thing, you still want to use it after edge case but can maybe macro to kingsbane and be fine
Master Assassin/Iron Wire nerf
- Entirely expected with subterfuge changes
- Frankly the nerfs probably need a round two, iron wire especially is crazy

okay work time, video is recorded but not uploaded waiting on thumbnail
pog ty king
ty now i know what to think
@balmy condor which build for ST in raid?
check wowhead
oh yeah read that wrong then, it adds cp to the NEXT finisher(s), it doesnt supercharge specific CP like ER does now
if that is the correct interpretation, I'm happy
makes sense the way its written
is iron wire 6s unstealthed on live without subterfuge? i thought it was stealth only
Should i use catalyst with chapion with avoidance?
Subterfuge change however I feel is an attempt at making it relevant despite it just... not being relevant. I don,t think it'll change anything
is my reading comprehension off, or is master assassin a 12 sec buff with subterfuge?
Beautiful. Luv u 
It definitely will
It's not even a question
1step closer to 10CP baseline 
You will 100% take it in Mythic+
That much master assassin is so sick
Like what? we already have all the bleeds we want with the times we alread have
Rogue is mid on Raids or it is just me
that is a lot of masterful assassining
Idk if we take it but it’s definitely interesting
Yes, but we didn't have MA or Iron Wire previously
Guys, i got a question when you got your second death mark after 2 min on a mono boss, do you use improve garrote before the second death mark or right after ?
Iron Wire is so giga
even more ass master time
I mean if you only care about damage and nothing else, then yeah idk maybe
But I'm an Iron Wire simp in Mythic+
New Talent: Supercharger – Shiv/Roll the Bones/Symbols of Death supercharges [1/2] combo points. Damaging finishing moves consume a supercharged combo point to function as if they spent 2 additional combo points. 2-point talent.
How do you read this as your next two finishers?
You press shiv and it grants you 2 supercharges, your finishers then consume them for +2
There’s no trigger condition
It’s just finish -> +2
Whoa that's way nicer
shiv/symbols(and RtB? outlaw moment lol) are even more bursty now
the wording is atrocious in the blue post
Wording is fine what
the wording of "supercharges two combo points" makes it sound like old ER/RC
but it's not
I don't think it's bad, you just have to kick your old understand out
because it says "Consuming the supercharged" points grants it
if your 3rd point is charged
and you spend 5
you're consuming the third point
yeah, that part makes it sound like current ER, but if it literally worked like current ER and could pick the 3/4/5 combo point
that's that
do we prepull ascendancy serum or just use it and eat the 1.5s+
then well I guess it would still work? but eh
I have the stupid serum cause I literally haven't been able to grab anything better, I rip it right before deathmark and cry
same lmao
There is no charge
It’s just you have buff
is there anything that caused the sanguine blade build to pull back ahead?
You consume it
should i be using one of each radiant power and depths enchants? or double up on whether im doing raids/m+?
its simming 20k ahead of the vw build for me
Mini game doesn’t exist
Gear dependent
you basically have 2 combo points in your pocket that you pull out and add to your next two finishers
ight thanks
landing on 6 cp will feel 
What
? will count as 8 then
8 is his least favorite number
god i fucking hate 8
true
dude
Because 7 8 9
almost as much as i hate boomkins
So with your theory my 2 and 3 cp is “supercharged” if I use a 7 cp finisher that would consume both supercharged CP and give me an addition 6 CP to my finisher making my envenom act as if it had 13cp?
fuck 8
8 is literally the worst
can i use crest for 593 items or save it?
honestly, don't even know why it is a number...
There is no 2 and 3 cp supercharge
ewww 8
yep, you are officaly old now, go into the old people corner with seli

Is there a specific amount of haste we need for bleed ticks? i currently only have 3k (5%), i'm still simming every drop just to make sure. Just seems weird to be this low. New to rogue, just stopped my mage for so it's just weird.
I only really care about m+ if that makes any difference
What’s supercharged then? It says 1/2 cp are supercharged.
stat breakpoints dont exist
1 point in talent gives you 1 extra cp on your next 2 finishers, 2 points in talent give you 2 extra cp on your next 2 finishers
outlaw needs jesus in 30 different ways
my outlaw sims 150k above my sin
im a bit worried to check outlaw channel
Coming from mage that's a crazy statement, each spec for mage has at least one

haven't touched outlaw since the rework in DF
The wording makes it sound like ER
wizards are unethical
Its good
Changes are hype but imma miss my blue cp
Basing it on Whispyrs trinket tier list on the guide, lists it as F so idk haha
sims way higher than my arakara
Well it didnt work in sims until very recently (like yesterday)
Other way around
ahh
So im guessing whispyr just based it on how it simmed, which was awful
First point is Next 1 finisher is +2cp
Second point is next 2 finisher is +2cp
I tested it in game cause it wasn’t in sims
And it sucked
burst shenanigans with this and ttk do sound promising
I mean its just a mastery stat stick
Yeh
Thats well stated

Kk I’ll take your word for it, hopefully be able to test it soon
TTK getting the biggest glowup in wow history
Yeah idk wht to run now lol, arakara is a popular choice but sims like shit, this thing sims way higher aand so does ascension card
yolo i guess
Insane synergy with symbolic victory
4x bount T8 and 4x tinket drops -_-
what's up? i though sin was supposed to be the raid spec
true
They also nerfed the reduction at one point I believe
wtf is going on
looks like sub and outlaw are performing better
Yeah so as expected
ye sorry, my raid is tomorrow, could not boost assa numbers
Dont sweat bro just reroll before M+ launch and you good
imagine having a raid
Dont wanna play sub again REEEEEEEEEEE
Assa felt fine to me in raid
then dont
Sub has looked like assa but with more burst, outlaw has looked higher than assa/sub but with no burst
Outlaws worse
???
It's not like assassination is that far behind
outlaw feels weird without acrobatic
No logic allowed fere
It's playable
sin still the M+ spec at least?
If you'd have to pick an allrounder for 50/50 Raid/M+, would you go for Outlaw?
Assuming you couldn't switch specs back and forth hypothetically
no im pretty sure if you play sin in raid ion comes to your house and confiscates your pc
for trolling
Sin has a very nice damage profile in m+
im enjoying it in raid too 😄
Our AoE and bursts line up really well in most situations
I think sin is gonna perform best in all content where you like playing sin
Glad my raid is tomorrow and im fully specced out for sin
Dunking on idiots in trade chat, even? 🥺
outlaw players will all have carpal tunnel in a year and sub players all hate themselves
so sin is the only choice
hmmm i hate myself...maybe i should play sub
I like sub in pvp lol
i like sin always was beating our outlaw in basicly everyfight
pvpers all hate themselves too
you see, the problem is
you play PvP
so that makes sense
looks like outlaw only beets sub in cleave fights
Its not like you'd be doing 100% more damage
Just play assa if you like assa
It really is that simple
but you would think sin would beat outlaw in cleave and it just doesn't
It can
but that outlaw rogue could be bad
Hey, quick question. How much haste can be considered as "enough"? ty in advance
I will say Deathstalker feels like poo poo should you not have a darkest night buff that lasts intermissions on some fights…. Sucks to just have no way to get mark if you used Vanish in CDs and get shafted on a mechanic
Top assass rogues will beat 98% of all outlaw rogues
!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
yeah i know, play what you like, and that is why i started playing rogue but i also like pumping dmg and its weird seeing myself below fin ret paladins or other rogues i know i play better than

fatestalker
Fatebound CT is a bit rough
Fate stalker sounds metal
But yeh doable
whyspir, your raid aoe build, is that the expanded version post caustic? Or do you think if you're running caustic you should play that page over the ST page with swapped IB for CT
I was just curious, I don't really like deathstalker so Im gonna play fatebound and wasn't sure
does bubbling wax work as well as whetstone? or at least close enough for now?
Can do either
!wax
Bubbling Wax is roughly on par with whetstones and are free. Some caveats:
- Right now having wax applied to your offhand does nothing. Make sure you apply wax first, then apply your whetstone
- The quickest way to farm for wax is pickpocketing the kobolds in front of darkflame cleft
- If you have no idea what any of this is, you need to start the questline with "Brax's Brass Knuckles", then walk into the inn and talk to the vent to start "Go Take Candle". Once you complete the short questline, you can pickpocket wax from the kobolds
wax is reportedly having issues in raid
roger
not proccing reliably
so gg i guess
that info is from outlaw players though so take it with a grain of salt
should it show up in wcl if it did dmg? I assume so right
But feels like that might be a thing
sounds reasonable enough
Yes it’s a unique line on details/wcl
!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.
in that case it didn't proc a single time during my whole raid XD
I have it on a couple

im 100% sure it was on main hand also,
mine was too yeah

Yeah it’s having issues
i guess whetstone gaming?
What are the er changes
Pins
Off to pins
silken court pug 2nd day
Double the dawnthread is double the crit, correct?
Yes
no idea how people are doing less than ST in a 2 target fight >.>

they are dead or dying and you are living until the end of the pull
caustic goes crazy
Thank you
ive been playing mm
and this fight is so fucking annoying
anyone rocking the faramones trinket from rep?
id love for my phone to be that fast jesus
because i cant proc trick shots unless i have 3 targets
Does anybody know if whyspyrs pooling weak aura still works?
so i cant even take multishot and cleave
13 pro idk
ranged hunter omegalul
Fuck no with a capital fuck
i might actually try survival for this boss
i have a polearm i won offspec roll on
Should be deleted off wago
but if im not doing tethers apparently every pug is completely incapable of doing it
algari mana oil was better than wax on ST but slightly worse than whetstone right
Whats the discord ! thing for pooling?
i love pugging
by like .2%?
anyone try that faramones trinket from rep?
yeah they snap at 30 yd and do quite a bit of damage
one of the only hard mechanics in n raid

I am amazed how hard pugs have found the ansurek p1 pop up
Is that a fucking cat or a hamster
Rng gods gave me two heavy haste low mastery rings today. 20% haste pog
its a very disgruntled cat
I’m stuck with 2x vers rings and a vers neck
I’m playing outlaw life
I only did 5 normal bosses today tho,
Quick question, anyone else noticing the Shadowed Essence trinket out simming things way higher ilvl than it...?
Did 1 delve 8 that did not count for vault
rekt
For some reason
Sounds like you should equip it
also its bs i can't shadowstep ansurek's p3 ground junk
delve gaming
Got the delve 8 achiev and on vault got a max delve 7 (610 reward)
Imagine not having 10’s done
It’s cos you need two
i dont hate myself quite enough for that
and i have no friends
so no group
I do
You just made me feel pretty stupid and I thank you for that @open mountain
I hate myself enough to do it solo
Raid bots said the 571 version I have is better than the 597 scroll of momentum I have. I'm just wondering if it's accurate lol.
Made the same mistake today 😂
Yep
Imagine spending 40 minutes stealth and picking up items and waiting for vanish cd
that momentum scroll is also fucking garbage anyway
Do 10s give anything
8 times
so im not surprised
I don't think scroll is very good, but it at least has agi which Shadow doesnt'
Is ascension as good on an offhand? I can’t find definitive info anywhere.
epeen
Keep it in your bag for the bag ilvl
Word
This is what I assumed. Lol
if you do a 10 you can do the harder version of zekvir and get the void airship
but im too lazy for that just yet
will do it later with more gear
It’s just a buff, there’s nothing where the hand/slot matters
Same as with poisons
You just have them on your character
Hell yeah. Thanks.
They don’t actually go on daggers
Seems like they couldnt figure out how to fix the echoing reprimand bug and decided to change it lol. I doubt its for that reason but its my headcanon

QQ; i feel like im running out of energy a lot, happened since the TWW prepatch but now even more apparent. is it just a case of getting more haste in or am I missing something else?
Low haste happens early every exp I think?
did they fix the third stack ambush mob die DN proc?
it feels like now i dont have mark on targets or the buff only because im bad and didn't track what im doing with it
!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
would make sense I imagine; feels so bloody awkward jaysus
It's a rough way to start for sure, but it gets better
DPS rankings so far are kind of rough
cheers 😉

doing raid on night 2 makes your parses feel like you are a gigachad lmao
So with these new echoing reprimand changes, we need to spend one extra point, I’m guessing we would drop the single point in lethality?
Sick ty
what should I select for M+ sims? I have 4 trinkets I want to sim. Is dungeon slice the best or do I need to set up a target dummy style sim?
Is Sin still the premier m+ and ST rogue spec?
what are the two best crafted things to craft right now ? weapon and belt ?
!craft
Preferences currently are wrist/belt/dagger for embellishment depending on what you go for
Darkmoon Sigil Ascension (dagger) + Writhing Banding (wrist) is generally "the best" in raid, but has ramp time and is worse in m+
2x Dawnthread (wrist/belt) is generally the best in m+ and not far behind of Ascencion/Banding for raids. Equal in single target at 80% uptime
Craft a dagger if you're unlucky and don't get one and are down bad and crying about your pathetic little 580 main hand dagger. Put Ascencion on it

@prisma monolith thanks i plan on doing keys and raiding this season so Idk what i wanna do fully but thanks for the advice
did you just thank the bot, thats so kind
hahaha yea i jsut realized i did HAHHAAH
im such a noob
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.

Any idea why my Kingsbane damage is super low? I'm keeping Shiv up and getting full melee uptime
poisons on?
Yeah it's consistently around 5% of my damage
Other Rogue is getting much higher max hits
for raid, is best hero talent fatebound?
Is energy management a thing when it comes to playing assa?
I go energy starved quite often during boss pulls, no thistle tea charges left
kinda stuck in limbo
I don't think I run out of energy on the majority of bosses

Sample size issue
90th percentile of sin players and OL / sub are wildly different
unless something has changed drastically since last xpac you env at 5+ cp
iirc there's some case where you 7pt envenom now? idk someone that plays can tell you.
You do that before using envenom with darkest night when playing deathstalker
basically losing the CP from seal fate is worse than the 'inefficiency' of envenoming on lower cp
any tips on easiest delves for rogue? struggling to push past tier 8 
play OL or Sub 
Yes, just do them in a group
also is solo the strat or should i be in group ?
You can solo all the T8 delves pretty easily
this only
Why tf is my deathmark dropping on st
is there a bugged interaction with any classes that remove it
ty ty @wind falcon @empty viper
I think you can lose it if you're too far away when the mob it's on dies
Although prepare to die to insect swarm on some of the bosses cause people are derp
it happened during silken council and it was really annoying. Happens when a boss with the mark just "disappears" from the arena it eats your mark
so i swapped to FB
why does deathstalker still use echoing reprimand if it doesnt work together
Guys, there';s something in the raid causing me to lose stealth on pull, before being able to ambush and apply deathmark. Did anyone had that happen as well?
silken court as well
no , i always shroud for pull nothing happens
do you have any macros causing you to drink a pot or tea or something?
just press my keybind
is harvester edict trinket any good?
I might be missing something, but wouldn't we already have a new mark from Darkest Night before hitting vanish?
nope, some bosses it happened but some didnt..trying to figure out if its another class' skill or something
listed as kind of okay on the lists. sim it vs what you have currently
So weird, was ust hitting first boss of Siege, no phases or anything
just dropped off entirely after 1 envenom
i think it was on anub'arash burrow
not sure though
Hey guys question regarding ST rotation.
During death mark and Kingsbane… do I always refresh garrote at the end of the KB window even if I have more than say 10 seconds, and am I meant to be refreshing rupture at the end of that window aswell or nah
Is there any preference to which weak auras yall use, or one in the list that easily tracks kingsbane?
I downloaded a KB specific one Konspiiracy, I think it’s one of the last ones on the !wa list, it’s great
Anyone have a good texture like wa for bleeds and poisons? I was having lua errors and deleted something I didn't intend to
I had notter's form dragonflight but can't find it on wago again
LE’s kingsbane is really good. Even has the option to put shiv/tea ticks on it

applying mark with vanish when you have darkest night active makes it so when you envenom you end up with 2 stacks of marks
Is that the group or collection?
It’s in the group, but the collection has it individually if you want to use another

anyone i can whisper in game about trinkets? im US Alliance, my dungeon slice sim is looking sus
what's currently equipped?
spyglass and imperfect serum
what is sus?
i dont understand why double crit equip would be better than 1 crit / a 7k agiil on use with 800 secondary stat
How’s everyone going with tier 8 delves
Getting absolutely trucked solo

LF a group and dont stress yourself
Fair enough
1dd 1 tank 1 heal is nice
they feel like a breeze with just 2 people
so much for solo content lol
later on when we have more gear it ll be easy i guess
does queen ring's damage get increased by our talents?
T8 is pretty easy, just DoT and let Bran tank
As dps brann?
how does he get aggro from u
!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

very negligible

cause i still got the 593 signet from priory
sim it
i mean its a 19k gain but is the onuse like cringe af to use or
Will the changes matter that much? Some utility nerfs but not that bad on dmg
extremely indefensibly cringe
idk if youre trolling or not
like REALLY REALLY bad

Tricks, mostly. Or vanish/shadowmeld if you have it
lol
for me the decision is fairly simple, it's the kind of thing I use for farm, for prog if doing a minigame makes me take avoidable dmg or grief a mechanic even once in 100s of pulls it's not worth the extra 10k dps the raid gets from me using it
if it was always the triple jump it'd be fine
but the others are peak cringe
farm is when people play to pad / log
i mean true but also like
im sure some people will run it and get good results but imo i'd rather just chill
who care kinda
it's doable solo yea
idk 
branch had me suicide on volc last tier and I carry the shame with me still
tricks cheese or other stuf
didnt really need to use tricks cause bran at high enough lvl does so much dps he riped aggro from me
LMAO
even on his teir 11 delve version
aint no way
These Echoing Reprimand changes seem like a nerf to Sin. I was using them to more economically get through Deathmark charges
wdym
i mean er changes are a nerf but just because the effect is +2cp. wdym by the second part
lol
They will no longer charge combo points at 3-4-5, it just makes the next 2 finishers hit for max
!embelishment
no?
what changes did you read
oh ik what ur saying now nvm
whisp said mut deals additional damage
did he mean envenom?
errm i mean idk
ohhh I didn't get how that worked
you couldnt really rely on reprimand for ur energy economy anyway
so it's a bigger spender and then you get bonus builder
what embelishment to get?
sometimes it helped but it was unreliable like everything related to the talent in general
they finally let the rogue dev out of the goon cave

how is it next 2 finishers
the patch notes make it sound like it's just animacharged cps renamed to supercharged to get rid of shadowlands connection
youll still have rng crits where you cant use em no?
There’s no mini game
Dawnthread x2 enjoyers rise up! as soon as I get to45 runed crest that is
is that how it is on ptr or smth
like is it just saying combo points for flavour idgi 
ig i can just update and check
yes i understand
Supercharger activates on Shiv, spends on finisher
"supercharges 2 combo points" is the EXACT SAME wording as "animacharges 3 combo points"
No
Bruh
It’s “damaging finishing moves consume a point”
how come we vanish ambush without improved garrote in ST opener for deathstalker? doesnt it just ruin it by overriding our stacks back up to 3 from whatever they were at
Not “finishing on a supercharge point empowers the finish”
ah tru yeah
You can’t mark on top of a mark
So you just get bonus uptime and -1
ty
main line is trash but the rest makes it make sense
you are far from the only person to have been confused by the wording

I hope the changes push us to a point where we just end up not taking thistle tea 
are you guys running an aoe spec on broodtwister ovinax?
yo does this cooldown/charges thing mean what im reading it as in these changes
or am i being dumb
infinite tea pog
caustic spatter only
i shouldve just gone ptr instead of bothering asking questions 
Just go Raid AoE build on wowhead and take out bone spike for indiscriminate carnage
getting answers for shit i didnt even ask but would have
by just hitting a dummy for 30s
im dum
makes sense , would use both then
think there was something bout tea becoming a passive that auto procs at a certain amount of energy
so looks like they're removing the manual use of tea
I don't know what you're reading it as so I don't know.
They are not removing the manual usage of tea. In fact the changes updated the tooltip to make that even more clear.
Tea is the same as it is now. It just also automatically consumes a charge when you drop below 30 energy.
The only changes from today are it is now 30 energy, not 50
it was already 50
okay, that's all
and a tooltip rewording
datamined notes are unreliable
i was assuming the charge removal/cd removel meant it was now passive afterall
It is not.
ye im just dumb 
that probably means they were experimenting with making it passive overall
and datamined changes just include whatever even if its not actually a change (see ct in previous notes)
ah i see
are we still runnin low key bleed for m0s? err the wwow head m+

prolly not tbh
shit actually lives
wee, got my champion track regicide !

haste is not relevant thats just assassination
if you dont want to play around energy management/efficiency youre on the wrong spec
assuming you mean ST
Does a charged combo point from reprimand not count for darkest night envenom?
in aoe energy is a bleed uptime issue
No
!dn
Do I need to always be in stealth to apply a Deathstalker Mark?
- Only the initial application. Darkest Night reapplies with a max cp envenom and will be the majority of your applications
- Consuming a Darkest Night proc when a target has 1 stack of the mark will not give you a mark back
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
- Yes, you still want to finish on your animacharged combo points
"it's not a bug"* - Yes it is.
its a bug
😦 Thank You
So, is the intent to hit Envenom primarily during pandemic, and kinda chill otherwise (unless things like bleeds need refreshing?)
ya
I saw they changed all the wording for envenom to envenoms effect, does this make twisting blades work 3 times with rapid injection and dashing scoundrel?
if you have sanguine you wanna stay under 150 energy because reasons a command can explain better than i
