Kinda easy as long as you have a plan
Was it overtuned?
The dot damage is wild
I was pushing and we had assigned cds
Spotter?
let him keep fighting the good fight or smth like that
I hardly know er!
I’m sad how they completely destroyed the necrotic wake weapons
Bring back og spear
Ok so it wasn’t just me
You can’t lose them if you die though
The first time I saw that boss

I was like I guess I forgot the second bit?
That's why guilds exist
Death
i could have sworn he only did one wave in bfa

The smoke in the air is so thick I can't see the sky
only do 7 if needed to get rid of darknest night, otherwise 5+ is fine, ofc ER will let you do 3 or wahtever to proc darkest, too
5 or more. Or blue combo point if you land on one.
If you have darkest night up with deathstalker, always always 7
🫘
Is there a cheaper alternative to whetstones?
Mana oil
is there a way to make my fan of knives glow when I got the clear the witnesess buff?
You can make a weakaura for tht
@ Vaughn
but for the actual button of fan wich is my Q not a giant shit on my screen?
lay the WA over your action bar
woops, obvi wrong reply
kekw ty
Listen if a giant shit is on yours screen idn sounds like a you problem
sounds like youre playing outlaw


You Could get cheeky with it and make the weakaura glow external element and actually add the glow to your fan action button
But yada yada it’s complicated and bad and annoying just make a WA and drag it over your button

Are ctw procs really that important to be worried about?
gross I assa for life
Quick question, was the death stalker echoing bug ever fixed?
with time you will notice that CTW procs is second nature after stealth
I mean it’s more damage. I don’t know how much more damage but it is more if not playing vv
Is it worth dedicating your brain cells to? Maybe 
IDN
no cap?
What fight are we not playing vv
Guys, wax still doesn’t work?!
No cap on a flapjack Mac
oh shit, thats nice
2nd pinned message in all bold letters
Use mana oil
Guys would anyone please be kind enough to explain me why dont I get clear the witnesses buff after applying deathstalkers mark? I didn't see it on bug list.
Every fight cause I don’t like VV and all builds are close 
Pin messages are a meme
dont get too used to it tho if ER is going away in 11.0.5
Ur lit for that big dog
thanks
Im running out of energy on boss fights in dungeons what am i doing wrong
Respect it tho
!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
the pin needs to be 10x the size and exploding with colors when theres a new pin 
I'd say nothing.. it happens, just wait a bit
I just took the raid build and moved VV to sanguine and imp garrote
True

make a weakaura for pin messages?
Quake
Hello
No I don’t
Bis response

He yearns for the logs
Go give George some cheese
Thank you im coming from playing outlaw and it felt like i was doing it wrong
Showing up with your helmet and pickaxe to the miner’s convention only to find it’s a room full of stinky people talking about crypto currency 

!fuu

i would do horrible things
🙂
crypto bros dont count as humans
idk, put a piss plate in the room
Based
quick question: This is a scenario where we have 8 secs left on envenom buff. Suppose we are running very low on energy and we hit a anima charged combo point (say the third one), do we use envenom immediately, use mutilate and continue building combo points or just wait for energy pooling and use envenom with 1 sec remaining to the keep uptime of enevenom?\
logic doesnt change
So outlaw apparently is beating assassination do you think it’s cause of them only needing 2 piece where we need 4 ?
its not related to tier at all, outlaw was already beating us in logs day 1 of the raid when their tier still gave them like 0.2% or whatever
assassination is just middle of the pack in single target atm
all expected
Ahh ty for the response
make sub great again! i dont want to learn assasination 😢
isnt sub doing fine tho
I think assasination is still the better one in m+
Outlaw is easier than Sin, yeah?
i think the overall opinion is that outlaw is harder to play than sin, strictly because it is much higher apm
if higher apm is not an issue, than it may be easier than sin for u
yo guys, quick question, how much haste should i have as assa?
!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

!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
!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
quick stupid question but why isnt the sim using fok to use the hero talent when simming mono?
Hey, new here and new to rogue. Ive been looking through the pinned posts, and it seems like deathstalker and fatebound are not that far apart in single target. Any thoughts about both hero talents in m+ tho? wasnt able to find much info about
vicous venoms make mutilate more valuable than buffed FoK
M+ isnt open yet
It does less damage with VV
Than just not using it

I assume there is no reason to really track the 2 set... Just let it ride kinda thing
thx for the answer
Fatebound has felt better for me in M0s, just less micro managing, but I feel like as stuff lives longer deathstalker will be better
Yea that's the exact feeling so far
did they fix ER/darkest night interaction? not seeing anything in the hotfix notes, but it was reapplying for me when on an charged combo point on the dummy just now
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
why was it a stealth fix though lol, kind of a big deal
could've forgotten to add to notes, maybe it was an easy fix
Does the ascension embellishments can stack each stack 10 times independently ?
it might not translate to much more dps, but it feels so much better now
It is not a big deal damage wise but it is a big deal feels wise imo
this(tm)
I ain’t felt a thing in my life bud
big uff
what are we crafting for m+ and raid
a frost DK
!pandemic
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
rookie mistake

Does anyone know if blizzard are planning to change the interaction with reprimand and deathstalkers mark?
its already fixed as of like 2/3 days ago
Oh
yeh
I haven't been logged in for 2 days
its in pins
it's in the pins, i got scolded, but it was a stealth nerf, nothing aobut it in the hotfix patch notes that day

The only thing I scolded is dn bud

Don't read blue posts
Hey guys, was wondering is there any "bis" items to craft for the 610 pvp items as assa? im low gear so dont wanna mess that up
Pins?
depends what you already have
Weapon if you need. They won’t be bis in the end, but assume you’re talking about right now
And then it’s just whatever you need
Barely know er
sorry if asked before but what missive for weapon craft
Whatever you need in the moment.
We like all stats. Mastery crit is probably safe

Doesn’t work, get off the stage 
thanks

Get off the stage? I barely knew her-
Oh
Oh no
Guys how many mobs count as AOE? for how many mobs do we use aoe rotation?
Over 1 since our aoe rotation is a lot of variables
For 2 you’ll still bleed both, CT and use caustic
Man, I really wanna craft myself some gear but I don't have runed crests
what about crimson tempest? we use it for 2 targets?
CT is Crimson Tempest, brother
Yes
ok thanks!
The crit gained from my dawnthread lining isnt showing in my character stats, is this a known issue or am I missing something?
They were right and I was wrong
2 ways to fix this
Equip and unequip
Yeah tried that
a few times I had 2 items equipt but the buff was only showing stats as if I had 1 equipt
Or get in a flying mount and dismount to damage yourself
To try and reset the buff after healing
Still didn't fix it, when I equip my previous belt (ilvl 600) it increases my crit chance vs my new belt (ilvl606) with dawnthread lining on it. I assume its just a visual bug?
yeah you might have to drop below 80 to fix it
bubbling wax fixed or still doesnt work offhand ?

it looks like anima charged CPs working with deathstalkers mark fuolly now - resounding clarity worth running in ST ?
hey all, sorry if this was posted somewhere already, but is there a benefit of running 2 different non-lethal poisons if there's 2 rogues in a raid comp?
no, but it costs you nothing to put em on
I saw that the general tip is numbing for M+ and Atrophic for raid, but if we have 2 rogues does it actually give us benefit for one to go atrophic and one to go numbing? idk if numbing even works on many bosses if at all?
true
deadly or amplyfi poison? which one
!poison
You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:
Lethals:
- Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
Non-Lethals: - Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB
Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used
cold blood only working on envenom feels like i should just use it on cd, right?
Pins
If you cb yeah
Hi, I'm quite new with assassination, for AOE using caustic splatter, do I need to apply rupture for multiple targets ?
on cd, after the opener
hello
anyone got talents for silken court? 🙂
it's the most clear-cut case of macroing something. If it only works with envenom, there is no reason NOT to macro them
just wondering about crafts , i have enough to craft 2 636 items
normal or hc?
What do you mean after the opener?
hc
wich ones should i craft
probably going just caustic is fine
and can you craft items then turn them into set items?

u use it specifically here, then on cd after
so i have 2 envenom keybinds for example
one with no macro, one with CB macro
why?
Why 'not' have it on the first envenom
because of the edge case talent in fatebound hero tree
OH duh....
any chance to kill zev kir?
im thinkg DS, but we dont use it there. It's monday
Hello! A question! Does it make a huge difference to use higher ilvl dagger in mainhand rather than offhand?
yes, it makes all the difference
yes
I see, how does it affect? Any math behind it? Just curious
abilities scale from the MH dmg
mainhand weapon dps is the highest multiplier for doing more damage
you can simply swap high ilvl to low ilvl in the main hand and check the numbers diference
First image, 606 MH dagger // Second image, 571 MH dagger
This is just an example
i was playing ct on court but apparently you can’t stack em on mythic? so like
when talents start really mattering ct isn’t viable anymore

late ass reply to a dead convo btw
classic
you're not supposed to run stat weights to determine gear or what gems/enchants, or at all really. But it will show you the value of mainhand weapon dps over everything else

anyone have some beautiful wa for dn? and dont !wa me xD
guides are updated my dood

oh that's a good question; I guess I meant for the non-spec-specific case, so the lethal poison would be instant?
well the different builds have descriptions for what they’re good at
I mean it is m0, there's not really gonna be like a designated talent build for content that will barely last a week
i already replied to that with !poison
one of which is the bleed build that says it’s good at low level content with squishy mobs

for fate bound rouge on silken court hc . rapid injection or master assassin ?
master assassin isnt really good
Does it ever make sense in ST to basically just sit during maintenance and keep re-applying envenom for rapid injection at 1 second? Sometimes I feel like in ST I spend a lot of time basically “chilling” (assuming all appropriate bleeds/poisons are active & we’re outside of our burst window)
thats what i thought ^^
That sounds correct
yes that should be correct except if ur over 50%
Yall got any trinket drops
If over 50 do we want to mix in some mutilates I assume?
So.. with deathstalker, do you get a in-game sound almost lika a starwars-lightsaber?
NOP!
Since when has Reprimand interacted with Deathstalker?
This is BiS
if you going over yea, get some early envenoms
This is a weakaura
anyone know why 593 skardyn sims less for me?
i have 593 honeybuzz and 603 fang
You got that from wago.io and when the buff is active you get a lightsaber "woosh" sound that can be changed for other things
Yes, that one
he probably added a custom sound to it
I find it too invasive, so mine doesnt have all the shinny stuff and just a soft beep when the mark is up
Maybe because 593 is enough to make a difference. Also, if you want to be sure, you can scale Skardyn to 603/606 in raidbots before simming
honeybuzzer is also likely overtuned tbh
something tells me a 593 on use shouldnt be critting for 3.2m
593
If you want to make sure, use this feature to scale and copy the trinket you want to sim to the same ilevel as the ones you have
Bubbling wax a M+ thing or good for raids aswell?
thx

they all spam need then leave dung
what should i do for my 2nd spark?

ye
I’ll never tell someone wat to do with their spark
bet

Real
uhm anyone that knows things about whispyr's WA?
Dig your own grave I mean make your own decision big dog
what ab it
im using it on 2 different PCs and for some reason on one
thinking too hard for me 😭
it tracks all trinkets while in the other it does not
Unless i'm selling gear
updated them both to be sure but still the same
btw are we getting spark next week?
hey guys, a question... I think I already know the answer, but... is it intentional to keep the tricks talent from sub as an assa after respec?
So basically I skill sub... then I do tricks on Brann, attack any enemy.. and then spec again to assa... and it still works...
For court do we just accept that cds usage doesn’t really overlap the vuln phases
Or do we hold for the vuln
I have a terrible delve trinket and a 577 dark moon one
I mean im just playing outlaw until there's more tuning.
having more mobility is fun
i have arakara on two chars though
606 spyglass sims - for me against any combination of 593skardyns/606sikran/606sacbrood
in patchwerk and dslice
so i’m not even bothering with siege today

cringe dungeon
afaik its a bug
upgrade the skardyn
is clear the witness with deathstalk mark bugged?
no?
i just havent bothered farming
what’s the issue ur having
I dont get clear the witness after aplying deathstalk mark
have never experienced that
by the time im playing again where skardyn is needed m+ will be out
someone else said the same thing
i wonder if it's a bug
huh
I don’t track ctw
deathstalk mark

where are you looking to see ctw
Buff bar I assume
weakaura and buff bar
ah kk
was gonna say if it’s whispyr wa u might just have vv talented but if it’s actually not giving u the buff then idk

game sucks
ye a shit ton of bugs
Is there a subreddit for log analyzing?
Subreddit?
must be super rare or a ping thing tho cause that’s never happened to me ever
Err, sorry, channel hahaha
Just rawdog it
And I’ll get a green name to thread

Usually I do them
But who knows maybe someone else will beat me to it 
freakin nerd
huh you can spec sub to get the 1h tricks on bran and then just go back to sin and keep the buff
thats no tech thats a bug
does running 8 t8 delves non bountiful fill your vault with 616
tech is stay trickster
just t8
that’s insane then
New to rogue pve, give it to me straight. Looking for the 2-3 big things I'm messing up. Either lacking in gear or rotation. I know buffs are shit and it's just LFR, but still. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/khH9rZn7GMQxwfNj#fight=3&type=damage-done&source=201

Rhyl Log review
That way they can just have a place to reference and not go back to check a ton of messages
!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.
a quake log analysis would fix me man

Tristan Log Review
lmfaoooo
youre gonna be hella busy today lol
Wdym you struggle. Just go grab a coffee or quick bio while energy fills upto 80% 
Stabbycatto log review
Or 70%
with deathstalker/no sb, you're more playing to chain envenoms than pool
so about 240 energy?
Yeah
I know
it depends on your build.
I’m getting to them as I can ofc
imp garrote build
deathstalker with sanguine doesn’t want to go above 50%
Gonna log review > work > log review > work etc
because you get less envenoms so less mark cycles
Moritz Log review
my king. youre the best of us 
if you’re fatebound you pool to 70% or whatever but ds wants to avoid dipping into sanguine territory
!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.
what about for Kingsbane (Not DM). We pool to about full right?
just kinda hard
mini burn
not really
you had 85% uptime on a boss with an dodge intermission 
pool a bit but not to full, burst window energy is what your teas are for
is that bad?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
yeah i was comparing logs for kyveza, i was getting 80 vs top players getting 90
no?
seems like you're doing what you should be doing, just don't worry about pooling with deathstalker, really, and carry along merrily
especially on that two target fight, you'll probably always have energy to send more muts+envenoms in a raid environment
How important is none imp garrote uptime?
does shiv on main target increase caustic splash onto other targets
100%
all bleed uptime is good, bleed = energy
i felt like i was zooming in that boss fight to get garrote up perma

i've been sending another imp garrote instead of clear the witnesses to get full duration on that in deathmark in the opener and holding vanish for after intermission
imp garrote and vv build currently sim like pretty much exactly tied in overall
imp gar just shifts the damage more to deathmark burst
which isn’t like necessary on those bosses
cause they don’t have any dps check iirc

vv qol clears
doesn't that take a ton of value out of vv since you spend a lot of time runnin around waiting for cd's to return?
what
wut
well if we're saying imp garrote vs vv is about imp garrote value in deathmark
you smack the boss and then you soak the frontal and smack the adds there’s no waiting
yeah cooldown specs should be favored with downtime unless they are horribly aligned
stacks dawnthread?
yes dawnthread
no waiting is hyperbole, there's absolutely downtime 
taking vv for hitting adds feels cursed
for ulgrax ye
but are your cds even aligning with after the feed phase ends
?
or are you holding them which is just bad
yah, you can send DM pretty much right away
Question. I was able to get the head from the raid last night. Should I go ahead and use the catalyst to make a second piece to get the (2) set bonus or should I wait for tomorrow to see what the vault gives?
Also, which piece should I make into the tier and is Champion good enough for the item or wait for Hero?
yeah he's down for 1 minute so he comes back up at 2:30
I'd wait, no reason not to
wait for vault
should prob only prio hero tier pieces at this point
That’s single target in general
it has no vv though
how much worse is stiletto exactly vs ascension combo
you swap to Caustic for a cleave fight
someone in guild tryna get siphoning stiletto crafted and i cant allow this
need a scary number
‼️
let him craft it and use him as a live test 
lmfao
606 siphoning is only a .2% loss vs ascendance 606
nah i already searched history and yapped about it
ups, sry i want to ask in this build is iron wire skilled. i know for grp this is a good choice but dmg wise will lightweight shiv a better option?
0.2% loss and worse aoe but you have to damage yourself
cant be ever worth lol
unless ur REALLY poor
yeah it's clearly worse in every scenario but what about the flavor
true
well actually it might be better on short fights before ascendance stacks, i did 5 min patchwerk
the number is probably up very slightly with the extra shiv but iron wire is one of the best nodes in our tree, don't be tempted to forsake it
what if I wanna die tho
i mean we’re gonna be doing hc/mythic so 
if homie was just a filler for normals or something i wouldn’t yap at em ab it but
Is it worth crafting the 636 dagger next week with the free crest w/embellishment? Or is there more tuning coming
it's runed
!kingsbane
you need a gilded crest for 636
90 of them
What are you looking for?
if i shall only spend cp in envenom during KB, no matter what happens with bleed ending (if im noob and run out of bleed)
Keep your bleeds up
that should never happen
Shit it is, misread that. I guess question still applies since it’s 10? 15? Per daily reset for m+? For 9+ so 90 should take a few days of +9
Is the embellishment and cost still worth it or just save for the belt/wrist
!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
daily reset.. m+..
Is it weekly? Haven’t played since shadowlands and M0 was daily lol
m+ you can run whenever as long as you have a key
you can get 90 gilded crests tomorrow if you are a legendary gamer
Ah I’m dumb lol 😂
farming +9's week one
if you think you're up to it, go ahead
you don't even necessarily need the embellishment, you can make a dagger without one
it's gonna be expensive regardless
they can always be recrafted
should be me

but nobody want me
aaaaaaa NA players...
Yea I just read the pins for ascension and didn’t know if it was still technically bis or not
AAAAAAAA
Sorry
i havent even finished raid...
nothings changed, dawnthread better in aoe and often tied in st
i mean i’m entering hc first time in 6 hrs so

Yo did the echoing reprimand bug preventing it from working correctly with death stalker get fixed?
yes
Yes

quake get outta here get back to ur threads
growls and snarls and barks
Brother idk what a pin even is
Im working fuck off
sorry
what are people doing for ulgrax parses for add phase? vanish spread a couple garotte's and ruptures then caustic a KB?
i’ll go…. sighhhhh

!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.
tucks my tail between my legs in sadness
Click channel name at top, look for the text that says pine and click it
It shows a lot of important messages of the channel
It’s a good tool specifically in this discord to have
Ah, tytyty
This doesn't make sense? Knife is a passive
am I going crazy, does clear the witness buff pop-up if you reapply deathstalker mark due to darkest night?
No worries homie best of luck if you have any question -
Yes
TY
Yeah grace also doesn’t take ur stats during the dm window
(Found that in a log today)
he's talkin' about the text under saying it's on-use
Yeah but guide shouldn't be comparing it to grace, but another passive
Oh think he means
Am i mistaken or does that tip tell us to stay under 50% energy for deathstalker? i thought pooling around 200 and keeping envenom uptime was ideal
different talents different playstyles
bud

Trinket is good until it fucks you and ruins ur parse
what talent makes staying under 50% energy a good thing
deathstalker wants to keep pressing finishers to cycle the mark. going above 50% means sanguine blades means less energy means less mark consumptions

Sanguine blades
!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
good luck quake
playing vicious venoms anyways though
then it doesn’t matter rly
you still care more about cycling mark than having a perfect huge envenom chain tho
Hey was wondering, if i want to focus only MM+ as assa, what wep enchant should i use on my weapons (rank 2 cauz 3 is too expensive) i've seen blodmallets sim but i would love ur takes on this
better to pool higher that way we have more envenoms during shiv windows etc. yeah ?
i mean before cds sure
copy that ty
i think it's radiant for m+, depths for st raid
^
Arent we not using shiv at all outside of kb ?
yep
if you're playing one-shiv you can use it every 30s, just try to not send it late and desync your cd's
Can i cloak Queen Anusrek pull in intermission?

I don't think so, you can tempt fate with a well timed shadowstep if you call it too close though
one more question. do you guys double tea your kingsbane if close to being charge-capped, and then only use tea for the last 6 seconds if you're not capped?

!pi
tea and kingsbane are kinda unrelated now
you just tea for energy to mash in shiv which happens to always be aligned with kb
ah okay
is there any sort of spreadsheet for how much we benefit from PI?
i tea whenever i'm close to breaking envenom chain, and if i won't cap during shivved kb
if your envenom uptime breaks outside of cds you should just pool and start again
don’t use tea outside of cds cause it’s a waste of the mastery
Sim with PI enabled
So what's the consensus with Shadow Binding Ritual Knife trinket? Paired good with Sacbrood if we don't have Skardyn's Grace yet?
rapid injection is good but not good enough to sacrifice kb windows afaik
in execute PI on sin rogue is pretty good
it's a good trinket regardless of having grace or not
whispyrs typed messages about all this you could prolly find
well it also lets you keep pressing your buttons instead of having to repool
sure but what does that really mean
skardyn’s isn’t even all that
do you want to press more inefficient buttons or more efficient buttons
one of the priests in my guild was asking me if it was still good to put on assa like in df, I had no idea
i dont know enough to say one way or the other 
grace, knife, sac, toxin all top tier trinkies outside of the obvious contract
its only good because its a 2min on use attainable at higher ilvls
like if you could get myth/hero of the candlestick on use it’d be good too
well in both situations you have the 10% rapid injection buff but only in one situation do you have that + 30% nature taken debuff from shiv + a faster stacking kingsbane because you can mash harder
kingsbane max cap on how strong it could get was much higher in DF so you could PI to go super saiyan
honestly during m0 week if you have alot of mastery from gear
and it’s kinda clear which one would benefit more from mastery too as a result
now its capped at a much more attainable level
skardyn’s is likely weaker than a haste on use
What's the general feel / consensus of fatebound vs deathstalker? For sin in dungeons / in raid?
ahh true I forgot about that, ngl kinda happy to not have to be PI slave anymore
fatebound seems better if you don't wanna deal with the mechanics of deathstalkers mark
both good.
ds is definitely a little better now that ER is fixed, but they're not so far apart that you're being dumb for running one over the other
completely preference, they sim shockingly close together compared to what other specs/classes are dealing with.
play what you like
Are delve trinkets currently overvalued during raid bot sims? Asking to make sure before I trust what droptimizer is spitting out for me
FB still sims only ~1.5%worse than ds for my character using the new apl
some strong delve trinkets right now, they'll end up losing to ilvl of season stuff
would be like over 2 if they fixed ambush, i guess
Okay so even Ilvl they are pretty comparable to what’s considered bis?
but that’s still not enough to sacrifice fun
i know SeConDaRy StAts but that's probably why. at least in my case. but i also don't have any tier so
sim it for yourself big dawg. it may be different from character to character
it is stats yeah
fatebound gets more crit value than ds
but mostly yeah, if not bis at low/similar ilvl then competitive with it
but fatebound does also get more from tier (i don’t think ds mechanics get anything at all? idk)
I have been 😂 that’s why I’m asking if this can be trust
got hero shadow binding knife 
you can trust the robot, he's a top lad
ignore weakaura that put ilvl, its out of date
i wish people understood why bis is bis
I got a champion shadow-binding knife when it was F tier and almost tossed it but kept it just incase. Glad I kept it
and not just repeat garbage found on some lists
Can you explain it so me and my fellow stupids understand it?
i mean this is even worse than a bis list cus it’s legit just a tier list
People just like living in the stone age of Wow sometimes
BiS lists are not helpful towards gearing yourself. In order for BiS items to truly be BiS, all items in the list have to be obtained at that level exactly, or else it doesn't make sense. Missing a socket for example would shift your stats slightly. You should always compare your gear through top gear or droptimizer instead.
Pre-raid or Pre-season BiS is especially not helpful, and we do not have any of them. These are absolute meaningless bait for gear that you will be replacing the moment the season comes out. Use Top Gear/Droptimizer to compare against your character
Exactly this
❤️
Like ritual knife is pretty obvious
its good because it gives a fuckton of mainstat
they're more about "teach a man to fish" here 
Hacha was saying like once every 15 mins, but some people were saying they've gotten multiple procs in a boss fight. So seems very RNG
I’m good with that so long as it’s not an ancient proverb I’m meant to decipher 😂
across my 9 kills, it procced 17 times
and people act like a 5% hit to that will dethrone it
fewer times than my bubbling wax 
it’s so fucked up man
seems like maybe no ICD either
i do love me some sac
i love stirring my sack for agi
at least it isn't branch and having to play find the orbs
really?
transmitter is not bait (Transmitter lover here)
delver map
mini game just gets annoying
Should I aim to maintain thistle teas in stealth primarily ?
i've been told to tea in late KB
When you need the energy and during shiv windows.
there is one of those

the threads trinket
time to queue arakara
got it my 2nd m0
Mmm okie curious thank you
just one more
return of my branch weakaura? say less
i mean, my only slot below 606 is my gloves
Dog you did not have to find the branch orbs
They found you
You could do it with your eyes closed because they home onto you
AFAIK transmitter doesn’t do that, so you do actually have to find them
I don’t have it yet tho, lost the roll

just letting orbs come to you was bad, or at least not the good way to do that
Seems like they fixed Echoing Reprimand for Darkest Night
I just tried it again and it works, was this a long time ago?
a bit
just a cuople days ago i think
I’m not saying just letting them come to you. You side step twice, then to other direction, then stay still, that was optimal.
And if you were off by like 1ft, the orbs would correct for that fact because they were homing
Well thats great, does Resounding Clarity worth it now?
pins have more info for you ❤️
Oh great, thanks
anyone have a potion macro
balls bird
i used quality 2 potions before now i use 3 and i cant get it to wrk
balls bird
yes balls bird

dont worry, i completely missed it too, i just saw it on a training dummy and was mildly confused
is there a way to not get pulled to queen ansurek during transition?
is that for dslice?
cant cloak,need to run away
i just stepped a guy
only done it on normal still but
same 
warr's get to bladestorm it like wtf
LMAO
hello someone have a macro for tricks or trade? 😮
i can't wait to not touch delves ever again next week
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
@plucky fable
.4% gain on dslice over 610 gnashing fang garbage @rotund oak
thxx 😄
so pretty good on dslice
you are welcome fam
yeah arakara trinket is basicly a solid m+ trinket
but ild still pick skandryns and spyglass
like grimbatol trinket is idk
too good
eveyrthing else pales
coz its shadowdmg and it amps from the sub tree
Ara Ara trinket goes hard
there are quite a few usable trinkets out there
Hey i think im doing something wrong pls help 😦
Sometimes during boss fights my deathstalker mark just disappear and i dont have the buff that reapplies it. How am i supposed to do if vanish is on CD ? 😦 And why is it going away ?
xd
The fayedwing trinket sims higher than my spyglass but I refuse to use it
Over eyeglass
u cant reapply it if u have no vanish
but just a FYI
there is a rare bug that consumes the mark when u kill a marked target with ur DN proc
why
you just click it every hour with ur poisons
I grinded like since Tuesday for that spyglass
nah it was during Silken HM
I’m like not
or macro it to kb and forget it exists lol
Not gonna use it
spyglass sucks buddy 
Graze sucks
spyglass too high value
The grim batol one

So if the mark disappear its a buggy interaction, not a mistake from me ?
with the build that has only one charge of shiv - when do I use it? before kingsbane? during?
when kingsbane has 8s duration left
i haven't had it happen but i wouldn't be surprised if there was a rare interaction
and with the ER-DN interaction u can pretty much chain it

i can assure u it did. i'm on Silken HM i think its because sometimes 1 boss leaves

isn't that just you marking the wrong target then?
you can play around that by marking the target that isn't about to burrow out
Is there a way to analyze a parse somehow website or something and check what can be improved
group finder is reminding me how pugging m+ is going to go after reset
i cant even get into an m0
at 598

Yeah if u mark the wrong target and the marked boss leave the fight
the mark is gone when he's back
I’ve had 0 issues
and im fucked until my next vanish
im happy for you
Are you queueing at weird times for your region?
Best embellishments for assa rogue aoe?
