yes
Also do we save Vanish incase we lose deathstalker marker?
oh right it was 2/2 with bug
its the only ability im not really sure how to use correctly.
some people saying vanish during your KB window to reapply garrote?
when the bug gets fixed, you would want to vanish ambush while having darkest night
ahhh
holy shit did echoing reprimand get stealth fixed?????
or getting the mark up earlier by vanish->ambush with darkest night up
or if you're playing fatebound, you vanish for edge case
those are the 3 conditions
Thx!
np
edge case procs off deathmark
it indeed does
yeah but the way coins stack
what sim do I run for 5 targets again?
makes it kinda fine
it's only ever patchwerk or dungeonslice
if assumed the bug wouldnt be .. if at 0 combo points what exaclty does vanish ambush give when DN is up? i mean it doesnt proc it does it ?
I'm assuming you're not trying to sim a dungeon
there was a broken interaction with ER nodes and internal bleeding a while ago, that got fixed right?
I just want to work on my rotation at the 5 target dummies
you would get the mark up and be 1 stack quicker to your next mark
no
or is that the bug
then sim 5 target dummies
yes that's been fixed
ty big papi. thanks for all those sims checkin out the hotfixed stuff last night too 

is scroll of momentum playable?
lol
whispyr your raid and m+ vids go wild bro. could you do a vid on how to min/max ST damage
is gar gar rup gar gar rup with SBS not up , a edge case? in what category does that fall? vanishing in a chainpull while the initial targets still living ?
that is in the raid video
i dont get the question
if you dont' have sbs talented
you would need to change your opener
guys what embellishments we go for?
!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
If you have a big dagger in your main hand already read the above and pick whatever you prefer
when is this the case ? Like how would the pull have to look like?
SBS is up as soon as something dies that has it applied. On every pull i would theortically have it up no? so what would have to happen for this to be applicable
a chainpull? like am i stupid 😦 ?
rupture then slice?
i cant solo 8s is this because im bad and stupid and impatient? or is it just hard for rogues
bs
is this also like this in deathstalker AOE situation? sounds strange with sanguine bleeds talented
Hi, Pin checker/Lurker here. What do we craft if we're strictly m+ gamer and not gonna touch raid at all? Is it weaps?
if you don't have bone spike talented
I just said it
if you don't have bone spike, you would need to generate after your rupture
since rupture won't fill your cp
Ahhh
pooling is irrelevant in aoe because you're drowning in energy from all the dots you have out
i wonder how this will function. will we be able to add another full duration ontop of the buff we get ?
and how do u manage, in general terms, a pull of average 4-8 mobs without being able to restealth? bleeds in main target and focus on caustic spatter for AOE? or u try manually rupture/garrote some mobs
and when it says up to two times. does that mean that we can reapply once the former buff is out ?
Yes. Every cast has its own independent duration.
And when there is overlap, the effect is increased per stack
dang, that sounds juicy
but when you say its own duration, does that mean that both effects are ticking down at the same time ?
Yes
bleeds for energy and ct followed by caustic envenoms
ah, i was hoping it would extend it
Their individual timers are ticking down at the same time.
It functions like Ironfur or Flawless Form
then we would just have 100% envenom duration but with double the buff :P
fair point
its basically identical to ironfur
yeah, makes sense
Does dawnthread not stack....????
!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.
is sbs on trainings dummys bugged ? i dont get the combo points from the second one
bleeds in 1 mob or bleeds in 4-5 mobs applied manually (i mean, not indiscriminate carnage)
!missive
what's the bug? I was just hitting a dummy and didn't notice anything bad with ER 🙂
so i see wowhead says Haste/mastery. If i'm solely M+ guy is its haste mastery b/c we get so much crit elsewhere?
depends on how long they're alive I guess, if you need the energy you would spread
Gotcha. Thanks. Got worried for a sec
for missive*
if you're solely an m+ guy you would crit/mast everything
!vanish
Vanish->Ambush during cooldowns with Darkest Night up has two main benefits:
- Getting more mark uptime by reapplying when it's down
- Consuming Darkest Night then puts you from 3 stacks of the mark down to 2 since the mark is already applied
As of September 13th with the Echoing Reprimand Fix, that second part is broken. Blizzard inadvertantly added a bug where you cannot consume mark stacks while darkest night is active. This will hopefully get resolved quickly as it is quite impactful. Until that time, you might want to consider taking improved garrote in your single target build (instead of 1 point of vicious venoms, or instead of improved poison). You do not have to do this, and if you would like to continue to play without improved garrote, you would simply hold onto your vanish in case you drop the mark. Once the bug is fixed you would go back to vanish->ambush.
Could someone please check this sim??
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/ai9JAPd7mCHirxHBfQowcY
check the trinkets i have, for m+
is telling me to take the candel?
stat proc trinkets are better on aoe for assa than direct damage trinket
more news at 11
Anyone have a ST rotation video 3-5min? I'm having trouble keeping good dps after opener/burst
burst spec does burst then does bad damage outside of burst
as long as you're close-ish to your target dummy sim
like is candel better than spyglass?
you're doing aight
https://gyazo.com/6c86da6992804c17081758f937be0446
boys we are improving! thanks to this discord.
Hey guys, quick question before going to bed : When you got DN up and you start a pack stealthed, prio spread dots with IC then apply marks ? Or Apply marks as first CP spender?
at equal ilvl for your character, apparently so
yeah im not doing good 
the first
outside of cooldowns you just maintain gar/rup/envenom and wait for the next set of cooldowns idk
there is literally 0 going on rotationally
they're okay
That's what I thought... But it should be proc when? Between Rupture/Garrote and CT or after Caustic?
whenever you feel like it
wowhead openers have it after CT/caustic
but if you really want to apply it before that
who am I to stop you
world isn't gonna explode because you envenom'd instead of Ct'd
btw, candle from my game tooltip it says around 2600 crit and the one from raidbots gives 5k, would be that??
mine will
or is bug the one from the game?
Bring back my ct flair
our opener is so ass
silken court go caustic spatter?
i feel like i have to do 10 things before even dmg

wowhead tooltips on delve trinkets kinda whack
Okay, mb, forgot that part of the guide, my apologies
it's in the name of the spec
it's a fight with adds
so
idk
do you want to do aoe damage to adds?
ohh ill try a sim without it
play caustic
no 🙂
yessss!
also is that you in your pfp? 😮
yes

ur kinda yummy...



that's your opener?
first time, kinda nervous
needs work
lol
Need to sim that opener some ma boy

i heard someone saying we should save runed crests. am i fine upgrading a hero track dagger, or do i miss out on something by doing so?
Hero dagger, go on
ok sounds good im sending it then
To optimize crest, you should upgrade only stuff 2/6 Hero or higher
and if you want to optimize crest you should hold your toothbrush at a 45 degree angle
and make small circular motions

Many such cases
lots of people are saying this
People ultra minmaxxing their gearing and crest usage and then they go into the raid without pots or forget to use deathmark on cd and end up missing casts

Ive been spending crests like a champ
i swear raidbot is gonna get rich off muti rogues this season
Fuck the noise

but if assa rogues sim more, doesn't that mean raidbots needs to pay servers more so they're actually getting poor?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i know a few that already paid the 3€
and im at the verge of it, the amount of talents and gems variation is insane
i do aswell, im leeching his raidbots acc

just 300k iterations not enought
I'm gonna be real with you, if you're not already subscribed and simming yourself vigorously before the pin
you should save the money and ignore the pin
ain't relevant to you
well you don't have to sim for m+
there's 2 builds
3 technically I guess if you're weird
zerocool angry noises
the talent nonsense is single target raid bullshit
m+ is so stable it's crazy
you always play deathstalker
and you always play iron wire
and then you're either cringe and play without a trace because you have no concept of reality
or you play resounding clarity
and then you play either of the 2 builds
it's a very straight forward flowchart
like, gotta remember
yes, there are techincally 2000000options cus you can do with any form of combination bettwen imp.garrote/imp.poisons/VV etc....
the only patch note I want to see is something to the effect of "In combat, if you have no Deathstalker's mark up, gain Darkest Night every 15 seconds."
I would like another 45 minute videos from Whispyr about why without a trace is questionable as a choice

I think Shadowheart will be meta soon
is it me or is bleed build m0 ways smoother they hybrid
I will offer it as an option like I did in the pins
and if people want to play legit one of the most troll talents assa has ever had
then that's their decision to make
pretty likely considering things die in under 15 seconds
make shadowheart 7 million percent leech from stealth

but if i dont take without a trace then what am i supposed to do? come here and yell that the tank wouldnt let me restealth and thats why my dps dropped 80%?
Shadowheart is bae.
It's like whole Blood vs. Iris arguments 
would fit in with the rest of the clueless M+ players
thats a skill issue
could collect them all
that would turn vanish into a great heal if you have a lot of dots out!
I'm fairly certain shadowheart doesn't work with vanish
😛
wow, its ONE conceivable function does not actually work?

last day a tank was chain pulling i said to him bro if you dont let me stealth i dont do dmg guy made a macro stealth now i pull XD
vanish gives you stealth though?
yes and no
no soup for you
from the player perspective yeah
vanish gives stealth
from the code perspective
vanish is not stealth
but you get both buffs
that's what you think
in boss fights you don't get the same stealth as when you're stealthing out of combat
imagin we are able to get auto stealth when out of combat that wud be so smooth tbh
and vanish technically grants its own version
you just dont drop combat, but its still stealth, isnt it?
!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+

im gonna be real
it's a different stealth
8.3 i played outlaw
so what, exactly, was the design goal of Shadowheart? Other than to invoke the name of our girlfriend who goes to a different game, in canada
pretty sure
crit builds didn't care for 8.3
every key
but haste loved it
It does work with vanish, but not subterfuge or dance
placeholder I guess

reaping flame mfd outlaw snipes
thats even more jank
whispyr whe need bfa corupption back full haste build xd
Blizzard straightup janking it, and by it i mean rogue talents and spells
someone else can have the guides
I will never play that fucking abomination of a spec again
yes
CT singletarget 
im pretty sure outlaw was still better in keys
itw was fun common wasnt that bad
in 8.3
it was awful
Dire straights
300% haste, bring it back
snapshoting exsang with the shrine trinket

if monks can Spinning Crane Kick to the top of the single target DPS meters, why cant I crimson tempest in single target!?
either double slappers
8.3 is unequivocally the worst designed iteration of assassination there has ever been
or slapper+folly
and it is not close
7.1
probably because there's no proc to make ct 300% more damage
agonizing poison
Anyone know if they changed embelishment this Xpac? Do the ranks not matter for how much Crit / stats etc. they give? its just difference in recipe difficulty
I'm offended you would even compare the two
correct
just recipe diff
real reason people care about st in m+
kill boss before it does mechanics
because most of them dont know what they’re doing
i hated agonizing more, but thats because i just ignored the 8.3 haste BS and went full crit/mastery corruptions for fun lol
I understand the agonizing hate for aoe but also you just didn't play it in aoe?
agonizing in single target was legit just ramp during your opener and then do insane giga deeps
it was just boring
it was just kingsbane squared
tbf, its a long time ago, most people just remeber not liking it, not in greater details why
also gave you a reason to sit on boss
and people fucking love kingsbane
and never leave
aka every dps
where is SoB in sergeant bainbridge
So first time rogue this season, but I gotta say, being able to blast in kingsbane window, and then chill, and hope the fight ends up being divisible by 2 minutes in length, is its own kind of gamba rogue.
reason to sit on boss and never leave
okay so then weapon poisons, caustic spatter, deathstalkers mark, envenom uptime 
huh
idk all i remember about bfa
was it was kinda trolling to not play outlaw
in 5 mans
yep raid leader told me go adds i said go youre self aint dropping my stuff for 10 sec trash fight
thats just called a bad rl
that's why you play assa
if they dont know boss mechanics
ermm damage profiles of specs
Although which adds
you're not doing your raid any favors sitting on the boss doing 25% more than the tank

yeah but running a marathon for adds that die from ranged in max 10-15 sec i aint gone waste time running
it is a better outlaw fight
if my guild forces me to craft now whats the play dagger darmoon and armor patch? or wrist waist
?
That chat with seli last night just made my dps infinitly better <.<
The play is a new guild
Dude, been hearing like AOTC guilds asking their members for like 585+ ilvl for normal 

People being weird
ours was 580 for normal 😛
The entire Raid has to craft with Sparks kek
we had a hunter at 570 for heroic

Yeah, but you'ore going straight into like heroic and mythic next week so...
These guys barely got normal done this week
got 2 bosses left for heroic... Hopefully AOTC tomorrow
I'm not seeing Bubbling Wax anywhere in damage breakdowns, details, logs, or otherwise. Anyone been able to confirm this works at all?
(Including looking at damage taken)
We ran normal splits with everyone's alt mains were at 580 and all the alts were atl ike 560ish lmao there was no issue with dps ;s
Add fights with outlaw and fury in the group are miserable in h raid
Did wax get fixed or is it still not working?
“Crimson tempest” -> 0 ticks, mobs dead
And yee, it's like whatever. Just be good and none of this matters
Good question. Since they stealth fixed RC they might have stealth fixed the wax 😮
We couldnt kill mini ghuun without down sizing group to 25 from 30
Why would they "fix it" if it's a quest that lets you put it on your weapon? 
Brood is not an easy fight
It didn't work on offhand before.
Least favorite fight is the second one
has to be on mainhand
I mean, fix it as in like "Oh, it shouldn't work in combat"
Probably just bugged out atm
Relogging made it now proc and show up, lol
if you wanna know the REAL shitshow
tanks died on normal Princes
our boomkin went bear form and tanked the last 40%
so yeah, borken

fucking CHAD
lolol
No comment
(I died tanking because I wasn't paying attention to the portal)
So i guess wax works on offhand now?
Thats for monks obviously
monks?
i mean you can apply it but idk if it add's a proc chance
I only have it on offhand, and its proccing just fine.
windwalker blade bro
today?
I’m not crazy about first 4, but last 4 are pretty good. I think court is a little disappointing, but have no doubt mythic will be ridiculous.
Court is for sure going to suck on mythic
I'll sit here and auto attack this dummy for 10min and i'll let you know after another 10min lmao
I applied wax to main hand on h ansurek pulls for about 4 hours today, 0 profs
Procs*
There was also something screwy going on with void contract trinket profs — I had a heroic, outlaw rogue had a normal, but his was routinely doing 4-6m more on pulls.
Tuesday 
man i do not remember that
Acording to the TC channel a few days ago Solo said wax wasen't even able to proc on offhand at all. So i dunno D;
rip
Yeah partly the reason for the wipe 
smh
outlaw stacks versa
i only remember wiping on silken court tbh lol
and bte buff affects trinket crits
that spec always does more with direct damage procs
than the other two
Does anybody have a WA that will allow me to move my CP into the middle of the screen?
I wanna keep them exactly how they look/work, just move them
Yeah, we did it this morning and wiped once haha
Do we even use vanish for anything in the Dashing Scoundrel build now?
!raid
Someone asked for this a bit ago so I made this janky thing https://wago.io/1o9w_iuw0
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
HUGE! ty bro
It's janky so use at your own risk, i'm not really committed to supporting it or making sure it works/continues to work
was just a quick throw together
It def is proccing now though 😄
on offhand that is.
@balmy condor you activated all raids buffs on your dungeon slice sims
hey question, should we be timing kingsbane around the lingering darkness hero talent? obviously were not gonna hold it super long but is it worth doing?
isn't it more realistic to desactivate all apart from BL like fuu does ?
When we have DN buff - we dont dont wait out the whole chain right? just proc it as soon as?
We use KB on CD
without marks on the target your hero tree doesnt exist
sac still bis?
Sim
remove like 10% of the damage from the sims in your head
With recent/upcoming changes are there any big talent choice changes?
classic
I got 4 cloaks in a row from the stupid bountiful delves then rage quit
its actually 16%, i did the sim : https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/9Zo6ivazhfzSWTW4yGz2qc
sounds good
Im not sure i follow - i was asking if we have the DN buff would we wait for instance the whole 6-8 second envenom chain? or just build to 7 CP and proc instantly?
it is more realistic numbers
I mean
who gives a shit though
dungeonslice inherently is an unrealistic number
it's a synthetic situation
and?
link dungeon slice sim to get invited to my +4 lil bro
its handy
for what
comparisons
???????
comparing what
specs
fuck no llmao
comparing irrelevant content
Proc asap
are coming from an m+ pov
Ty
I've been getting the mark up asap, but surely @balmy condor can confirm better what's the best case scenario
we gotta start taking away sim priveledges from mplussers
real
you always rush to get the mark back up

I keep coming back this quote I found somewhere.
xc'
you okay?
possibly dumb question but looking for confirmation. I was told ascension embelli is over-simming. trying to figure out my plan for next week is and I was leaning towards the dagger/writhing but wanted to check.
bro i paniced
it's simming fine
Thanks, lastly if i may - I know we aim to chain for max envenom uptime but if we have high energy, i.e early on in the fight or for whatever reason would we still wait out the envenom buff and refresh as close as possible or can we cast more envenoms in that time, aslong as we dont starve ourself
you're chaining out of cooldowns mainly
but yeah
you would slam envenoms
instead of overcapping energy
you want to maintain as best you can
but if you're getting to like 270
and getting nervous
just go for it
So aslong as we arent hindering our future self on chain uptime we can slam a few extra if we are in excess of energy, ty for the help
np
but why would fuu make this sheet if the DS sims have no values ?
i know it has caveats
and mutliple DR are better
DS sims have value
comparing specs is braindead though
sims were never made to support that
and they never will
what do you mean
like if you want to compare outlaw to assa or mage to warlock
sims don't do that
like they are simply not made
to do that
but why can't you compare outlaw to assa on a DS for exemple ?
Hey im new here but not so new to Rogue. IM like super struggling with my DPS in Raid so far. Can anyone like look at my log? See what im doing wrong maybe? im just so confused and getting frustrated
because the specs are optimized to different levels, dungeonslice is a synthetic situation that doesn't replace a real dungeon, timing on burst specs like assa versus sustained specs like outlaw are valued completely differently, etc etc
go for it
even just playing the two is completely different
players inherently do not play at the level of sims
Do i post the log in this chat?
some specs are easier to get close than others
yes

However it stops working if you die and you have to reapply it.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/avcpQVWgXqGKRtM7 In game name is Talatheseus. I was only present for Queen kill and the heroic kill

your mark exploded on both of these kills
47 hits of hunt them down on the first, 77 on the second
you're just playing without a hero talent
You prob dropped your mark at some point and didn't reapply it.
Okay IM probably just really dumb, but like the only way to apply it is with stealth right? and I used vanish as much as I could
Only way to reapply mark is to vanish right?
Hey guys quick question. What is the best use of shadowmeld in dungoens? Right now I'm using it to reapply dots in aoe if things are still alive after the dots from the opener end, but idk if there are better uses for it
After the intermission on the first HC boss you dropped the mark and you never reapplied it.
you lost your mark 1:40 in
So im missing an ambush out of vanish?
and then never got it back
then
hello, perhaps a dumb question but most openers are ambush into garrote ~ etc, how do you do that without subterfuge? because the guides dont usually talent that
pretty sure you applied the mark to the boss right before intermission
and then the boss disappeared
and you just forgot the mark afterwards
darkest night
Yeah, but if he dropped it during intermisson when it goes immune he wont get it back unless he vanishes.
generally to cheese mechanics
charges and targeted stuff
Darkest night?
The last capstone in your hero tree.

Right well isnt that only if you consume the totality of the first mark?
So basically time vanishes better
yes, that's how you reapply the mark
no
time your reapplication better
So i dont lose it in an intermission
I don't get the question
ambush from stealth
stealth breaks
then garrote
So what happend is that you prob thought you had mark up, but you actually lost it when the boss went away and went immune and you ahd to run around and grab meat. You want to try to get a DN proc from the adds so you have it ready when he appears again.
^
Or just become a coin flipper 
Okay I think im starting to understand.
Bahaha is Fatebound as good or equal to DS
yes
Yes
Yes sure but the variance in size of packs and time to live should make it general enough to let the assa spec for exemple burst with different size of packs for each iterations so it makes it general enough normaly to generalize between specs no ? The little pack, big pack (with overlaps that makes bigger packs) isn't general enough to at least compare in a very simple situation ?
of course for more relistics sims you would need multiples Routes instead
It plays slightly different and you want to focus more on mastery then crit but other than that its pretty much the same.
So if DS mark drops because of intermission. try to vanish or stealth to apply it on something else like an add and try and proc it. So i can apply with an envenom on the boss when it comes back?
Yes
i see now, i've been using garrote off stealth for so long that i forgot you can use it without lol
You aren't applying garrote
So would that mean if i fully proc and have Darkest night ready I need to not envenom until i can apply it on the boss?
The whole fight?
it always alternates the same, boss into small adds into big adds, then small/big/small/big
assa cooldowns come up basically perfectly after the boss because of the timing
As long as you ahve a mark on the last add, DN will proc when it dies
then you just grab some meat and run to the boss.
Also is there a WA to monitor DS mark im sure there is but just wanted to know if u had anything specific

my gf says the same
Just to be sure, you also cast garrote during the fight without vanish... Right?
rip lover
You both had the same time. Her bad for being slow
exactly

Hey I had a question about this rotation. I was curious why Deathmark isn't immediately after Rupture to have the duplicated bleeds be longer? Unless the duplicated ones include the full damage of the Rupture/Garrote just shortened? Hopefully that makes sense
deathmark duplicated bleeds drop when deathmark drops
Or in live 😂
ah ok i see so the problem is that the burst go into small adds ?
truuuuuuuuuuu
i don't...i've been using the talents that let you cast things 3 secs after stealth and double vanish, this changes everything, i was still pumping tho
I mean that is one of the "problems" if you want to call it that
Read through the hero talents again and it will make more sense to you, but try to keep a mark on the last add so when it dies you get a DN proc, then you have 30s to go to the boss and envenom it. If that dosen't work then you just pray vanish is back up. 😄
The wrong talents
like with any dungeon sim, there are specific timings to adhere to, and you can optimize or not optimize around each timing
ok but it should burst into big one after, at 4min no ?
@indigo mulch Thank you. I appreciate the help. Ill try and figure it out
we could in theory spend all of our time optimizing a mists of tirna scithe route
yeah i couldnt figure out how people were using garrote and ambush without them, im just dumb my bad
and then assa would OMEGA CRANK POGGERS LETS GO
If i can get a tracker for both Darkest Night and DS mark then i should be fine
but it would hurt the integrity of every other sim in the process
because you're overfitting the model
hmm it still confuses me a bit, I know Deathmark lasts 16 seconds but looking at the duplicated bleeds they look like they don't last that full 16 seconds, I assumed they lasted the length of the garrote/rupture on it before
Grab whispyrs WA, it works just fine. Grab the platter aswell. @tawdry basalt
sorry im not wording it too well lol
No worries... Be sure to, if you have the time, read the wowhead guide
depending on the timing of that iteration, sure
well you refresh garrote/rupture during deathmark
ohhh
so if rupture falls off and I reapply it, if its during that 16 sec period it will duplicate it automatically
yes
thank you
np
!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.
Spend spend spend
so i dont see why the burst side of assa is an issue with dungeon slice
ok
Honestly, after applying the "only cast envenom if envenom has 1s or less" rule i feel like my dps and energy management went up by so much D;
I didn't expect it to do that much
Yeah
So with the DN change, if you’re playing impless garrote then is vanish still part of the dps rotation?
!vanish
Vanish->Ambush during cooldowns with Darkest Night up has two main benefits:
- Getting more mark uptime by reapplying when it's down
- Consuming Darkest Night then puts you from 3 stacks of the mark down to 2 since the mark is already applied
As of September 13th with the Echoing Reprimand Fix, that second part is broken. Blizzard inadvertantly added a bug where you cannot consume mark stacks while darkest night is active. This will hopefully get resolved quickly as it is quite impactful. Until that time, you might want to consider taking improved garrote in your single target build (instead of 1 point of vicious venoms, or instead of improved poison). You do not have to do this, and if you would like to continue to play without improved garrote, you would simply hold onto your vanish in case you drop the mark. Once the bug is fixed you would go back to vanish->ambush.
Thanks big dog
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
But it also depend on what your playing. Haste dosen't has "low" value for FB for example
but for DS its actually pretty good
The various temporary builds we can play, would they potentially sim higher based on your gear or is it just pick your poison kinda thing?
Like, one higher than the other i mean
gear can shift it back and forth technically, especially with haste
but not in a meaningful way
like maybe you get something thats 0.15% higher than another build that bis says is within margin
very cool
but do whatever ya know
No sims, only pumps
In my personal opinion, DS is just easier to gear towards cause all the stats are just good for them lol
I think i like having vanish in my back pocket to fix a tragic blunder, so i’ll probably just stay the course with no imp
It's because their profiles are different. You have three specs that have different profiles, even if they all have a BF effect now. Where they do damage all varies and thus why you can't compare them solely based on a number. Like if you need burst damage on an priority add, you're not gonna get that with outlaw. But if you need sustain, you won't get that with sub.
?


And stats aren't as impactful as you might think they are Shiio
All the stats are pretty good for DS.
You can basically just equip the highest ilvl of your gear and you'll be more than fine
which is really nice when you multispec
can someone explain what it means by vanishing to apply a mark? doesnt the target already have one
But if you compare it to like FB that actually have more gains from crit due to deal fate while DS has lower gain from crit due to Darkest Night.
The only annoying part about multispec is how outlaw and sub have a polar opposite relation with mastery.

do we take resounding clarity now?
(what is BF ? ^^). Yes i understand that totally and it is how the specs are truly played but for a starting point isn't it useful to just see how they do in a general situation ? it can be a starting point to reasoning on how it would be in reality with proper gameplay
Yes.

!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.
multiple Dungeon Routes would be more accurate tho of course
Blade Flurry. Sin's version is Caustlic Spatter and Sub's is Nimble Flurry. And it's not. Because there's a lot of different situations that happen in dungeons that you can't just assume that highest number = good. In a dungeon, if you kill all the small adds but keep the big one up for 2x as long as if you were able to focus/burst down the big guy while using the smaller adds as a resource, you're wasting time in the dungeon.
You can use it for a way to compare potential talents or gear within a spec. But not spec vs. spec.
It's like how we don't take 5 minute patchwork fights as bible for how a spec performs in raid. Because it's not always going to be 100% truth. There's downtime, there's important burst phases, there's adds that you might have to deal with.
Select more items to resolve possible constraints comes up when i try and sim rune branded armband with dawnthread embelishment on it. I have rune branded waistband w a dawnthread on it already. Would this be conflicting somehow?
foook yea i have it on my boots. thank u
just opening yourself up for new argument of "but everyone sims 5 target patchwerk, look at this simulationcraft chart"

yes ok i understand, but the funnel is not implemented in the APL of the specs ?
round and round we go
Is caustic splatter damaging from the enemies radius or your radius?
And is it just 8 yd range same as bf?
enemy
Owned
promise?
Whospyr
ofc babe
I know a really nice spreadsheet with some nice builds from a famous TCer in the rogue community all super well done Dslice builds.
i love whospyr

so much cooler than that whispyr guy
how is my rupture in details showing 7% but raidbots showing 11% while uptime is 98% for both? my garrote shows normal for both though, so i don't think it's deathmark. is there something i'm missing that buffs our rupture damage?
mama mia


Ds feels so much smoother to play now
yeh
it does yeh
Whispyr or one of the TCs can answer it, but has ways it deals with AoE and what not. Not sure about funnel for dslice, but.
you can put a priority target=1 sometims it needs some tweak
it is for dungeon route i suppose tho ?
priority_target is a bit finnicky
blizzard pls let me play coinflipper 😦 I'm just not getting the gear i need to make the swap to fatebound 😦
doesn't do anything for assa atm cause I ripped it out of the APL during 10.2
with caustic spatter a lot of the funnel is just like
do what you normally do
but also deathstalker

okay i'm fully ready to get clowned on, i'm brand new to rogue this expansion and my damage is low, we're doing prog on H Queen
i think i understand pooling, and i'm not convinced i fully understand it
rogue isn't my main but i was asked to play it cause we're full on heals
doing more pulls so if i don't respond i'm sorry
I'm talking to the raidbots guy and a simc dev about adding support for simming priority dps just like
baseline
but that'll take a bit
Gekko rogue for lyfe

i feel like this is close enough that it’s not worth that much worry honestly
the chosen onE!
RISE UP COIN FLIPPERS!
This also kinda hurts a bit during your DM window...
the more logs I see the more I just want to just like
change all the recommended builds to fatebound
cause this shit ain't it
lmao
I have seen horrors this week
Yeah, probably better for folks new to sin
the sub ones are also cool with the if you use 2 finishers before DN for some reason it just goes away
ADIOS

I'm not even sure why more people aren't playing Fatebound
they dont like tails
I don't think i've seen a single Fatebound sin rogue since i started lol
also it bugs out other specs
Because they see bigger number from DS and/or see RNG and think "Not playing fatebound!"
chad coin flipping Two Face class fantasy vs virgin buff micromanager
coin flipping cringe or whatever and ds simming better for most people
I was the only fatebound rogue on heroic logs when we were doing our run on tuesday
when i first played sin i used fatebound cause its just passive damage, you don’t gotta do nothing lol
legit 1/250
LMAO
also presence bias insanely
the truly chosen one
Wait did you swap to FB on queen?
nah
Boo
I played fb on the first 3-4
people look at logs and see fatebound like 100k lower cause there’s 3 fb players

and many other specs in the game have only one viable hero tree so it’s fair to just assume sin would be the same if u aren’t reading tbf
no one reads
Just not having to bother with intermissions and losing your mark because you fuck something up i just very comfy ;s
"oh noes i didn't have DS up for queen intermission" bye mr mark.
just play vv 
While that sure is a skill issue. Its something that will happen to a lot of people progging that fight. :S
just play dn
damn
play with my bauls
but my beautiful opener graphic
like 0.7 or 0.9 or something
what's dn? 
kk
dunkin nonuts
yeh i’m def losing the .7 for safety vanish lmao fuck that dude
Dankest Nuts
just play without a trace 
safety vanish obtained
very based
playing without a trace 

of course
i talent into 2nd vanish and only press one on cd
LMAO
So, i need a project to do. Anyone have any ideas what i should code? I have this itch to create something but i honestly don't know what i should create D:
create some bitches
damn
Easily done with ChatGPT 😄

4o is supprisingly good at tricking people ;X
Create code that will create an APL that's reasonable for any specs
uh
we already tried that
and by we
I mean not me
and by tried
I mean it was awful
and gave me great pain
Like simulating whats the best button to press?
!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
If you have a big dagger in your main hand already read the above and pick whatever you prefer
I mean to be fair, that sounds horrible to do. You would need to code half a neural network to get that working correctly. Even if i got it to work it would still prob be sub optimal.
well make it sin optimal instead haha
You could simply not.
make a neural network to code weakauras
haha
and then lisonna gets replaced
_>

Noone can replace lisonna though. 😒
lisonna can replace lisonna
Shhh I wasn't gonna say anything about that project 
I have no object permanence
not that lisonna is an object
that's just the term
for the thing
I would never say that
Wow now.
weird vibes…
Imma play some Green Hell.
don't objectify the mods

Ur kinda yummy...

or too late

are you.. good??
You know what, i'm going to play some leauge of legends, its been years since i played.

even worse illness ngl
damn
RAN THROUGH 300 pots
this seems like the single worst idea known to man
But maybe its all good now. Maybe people have turn a leaf.
@indigo mulch how about a boss APL creator from the logs of the boss ?
to create custom fights
keo is cooking sims but all the ingredients are molded
I wont touch anything regarding any APL's. Whispyr will most likley be able to do it 1000% better than any code i'll be able to create.
is having more than 6 combo points useful? i lvl boosted out of the last xpac and i have 7 now but ability tooltips dont say anything about 7 combo points
pots looking like a fucking resident evil monster
Whispyr, did u already crafted or still waiting?
i meant custom raid events
yes, they scale just fine
Hey whispyr can you explain to me why necortic wake trinket sims 10k higher for me over signet
(with eggsac)
to recreate real boss fights
yes, that doesn't work
😮
you'd need to also have a custom APL for each one of those custom fights
we've been over this
I haven't crafted, no
gonna wait on vault at this point
I should've probably crafted
but cba
Overfitting is bad
unless it's clothes
True
ho damn ok, thats a shame 😢
I created a knife and a belt, but only cause i didn't get any drops -_-" I still haven't seen a belt drop so far.


can i complain about not getting any bracer drops?
no, you don't get to complain
😦
whispyr can you come bail me out with 100g so i can repair my rings
I got this one earlier. Actually pretty legit cloak.
13 hours wtf?
man i get the "class fantasy" of applying poisons but with all the other QoL stuff they've given everyone else, poisons should just be a toggle now
i have been progging herioc queen since 10am est
rings don't have durability you shall not tempt me with your lies siren
having to click lmb 4 times per hour is not a big deal idk

it's not and i have a weak aura in case i don't remember but it's just annoying


like if they made it one time toggle or whatever i don't think anyone would complain
"i miss re=applying the same poisons! waaah!"
what type of feet are those
Oh right
dracthyr feet
oh wow…
didn't i say i would post feet when er got fixed
step on me dragon
orc

no shot
step on me orc!!!!
how did you think those were dragon feet
@balmy condor
whispyr fake feet fan
sorry I'm not a fucking world of warcraft foot inspector
well
i expected better from you
@balmy condor that's not what it says on reddit...
I wouldn't be surprised tbh
reddit has said some outrageous things about me in the past
that wouldn't even register in the top 5
@balmy condor can i keep my promise?
stop
i think some would ngl
but why
most people just don’t care already
and it would feel bad for those who do care
so meh
yo wtf imma have to fight myself
I feel so vindicated seeing those outlaw nerfs
it's like a 2% nerf
Was almost considering swapping 
Hit the monsters infront of you.
it’s like 2%
literal slap on the wrist
D:
outlaw nerfed 5% without tier, 2% with
