so weapon + 1 piece with dawn is fine also?

Last I checked the line for Tea ties it’s logic to Shiv and not kingsbane.

They happen to line up as well, and if it is easier for you to track on kingsbane for using it with shiv, that is fine, the timeline aura still has a tick for tea available, it’s just disabled by default, but I didn’t delete the tick.

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

Stat

fickle lotus

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

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 This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec.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

im just simming 2 races i already know arent going to be close to the best dps because im Curious and i like Information

Aintnoway the like only 2 races im interested in visually are also right next to eachother in sims

#

what a coincidence

Does Arterial Precision not work or I fuck something up?
Edit: does it only give 1 CP retardless of how many target it hits?

obsidian burrow
#

super dumb question, since the price of weapon oils are high and bubbling wax only works on main hand, isnt Buzzing Rune still a good alternative to the whetstone or am I missing something?

Is outlaw the play since the buffs or still assa?

novel star

what buffs

#

outlaw was already the play and got nerfs not buffs

#

its probably still "the play" if you just look at overall dps

#

but they dont have burst

and are targetcapped

nothing has changed Okay

ive heard insanely good players talk about routing around target caps

so i just assume its real

cus i dont play at that level

and then i move on

but whatever u say boss sorry

#

Okay I've returned after the stroke I got from reading that top players use double vanish

#

How's it going

cunning needle
glacial crypt
#

to your question

maiden gust
#

what are most people crafting the double crit embellish or the wep/double effect combo?

subtle tundra
#

Anywhere else is a fucking joke

novel star
#

"most people" would do dawnthread because most people do raid and m+

maiden gust
novel star
#

the downside of dawnthread in raid is a lot smaller (often nonexistent) vs the downside of ascendance in m+

glacial crypt
#

for raid it's the best choice, for dungeons if you're an m+ gamer then dawnthread is technically better

#

but tbh both are good in both content

subtle tundra
novel star
#

yeh mayb i have no idea what theyre doin tbh

glacial crypt
#

that's a comment :^)

subtle tundra
#

And I mean doing brood this week

cunning needle
#

im just running focusing lens because embelishments are trash anyway

novel star
#

exile and kush have ascendance combo i think

#

but theyre also both playing with insane frost dk fury stacking

#

so

subtle tundra
#

I mistyped

novel star
#

just in the comp for boss dam

#

ohh

#

yeh

glacial crypt
#

^^

novel star
#

makes sense now

glacial crypt
#

makes more sense

novel star
#

yeh for sure

#

in mythic ur hp is just cooked

glacial crypt
#

9 minute boss fight ascendance will be stacking

#

you'll get far more value

novel star
#

well the stacks r capped

glacial crypt
#

on our mythic brood that's what I'm running anyway

novel star
#

its just about not being above hp threshold for dawn

cunning needle
#

also in m+ how much are peoples kingsbane hitting for?

novel star
#

you have to be above 80% hp for 80% of the fight

#

for dawnthread to be equal to ascendance

novel star
#

i think it was 80 uptime anyway

#

mayb 70 or smt

glacial crypt
#

I don't use it a whole lot but there's mine from last key

#

1.7mil overall

cunning needle
#

cheers mate

novel star
#

kingsbane value is kinda hidden cus its all in spatter

cunning needle
#

yeah i use the kingsbane counter tracker thing

#

and im hitting like 3-4m

#

but i cant tell if thats shit or not

glacial crypt
#

it's not something i focus on this tier

#

mostly playing around marks instead of big KB

#

not to say you shouldn't still play KB correctly

cunning needle
#

ye fair

novel star
#

idk i just do low shitter keys

cunning needle
#

also last question before bedge

novel star
#

kingsbane the highest hp mob and smile

glacial crypt
cunning needle
#

say i have DM up and i'm going into a pack stealthed

when do i cast envenom?

#

do i still get my garrotes off and rupture

#

or do i just force max cp asap

novel star
#

depends how long the buff is

#

you want to do your full opener

#

and max out IC value

#

but you can cut it short

#

if necessary

cunning needle
#

okay so applying bleeds > using DM buff

novel star
#

like replace the gar gar ct with gar gar mut envenom or smt

cunning needle
#

yeah i've sorta been getting my garrotes and ruptures

novel star
cunning needle
#

before envenoming

#

garrote -> rupture -> rupture -> garrote -> garrote - > muti -> envenom

#

or something

rare pecan
#

is it worth making 636 weapon + 619 bracers this week? feel like itll be some time before I get a good wep if im not mythic raiding

cunning needle

also embelishments are shit

novel star

go double dawnthread on armor then

cunning needle

do like 1% of your damage or something

novel star
#

and craft an unembellished dagger i guess or just whatever good drop u got

covert schooner
#

for a dagg3er

#

oh dont embelish daggers?

novel star
#

the only good dagger embellish is ascension but its only better in raid

#

worse in m+ compared to dawnthread

#

and unless ur raiding mythic dawnthread will often be roughly equal in raid anyway

covert schooner
#

Dont see dawnthread, forget how this works, is it called that in AH?

dawnthread lining yeh

should you only be spreading rupture with 5+ CPs or is more efficient to just fan rupture fan rupture if you had a no-stealth opener

My current opener is ambush -> garrote -> garrote (to silence everything) -> rapture -> rapture -> tempest -> muti -> fans -> env

whats the thing that prompts the vanish tip? !vanish

#

?

dense kernel
#

!vanish

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

i dont know if there are classes that can use those rotation addons effectively tbh, but assassination is not going to be one for sure

# hasty moat ST?

Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong but taking exsanguinate in ST is kind of counter productive

#

Since you want to be below 50 percent energy most of the time

glacial crypt

#

For more envenom uptime

hasty moat
#

Could u recommend the best talent build for a single target

tough basalt
#

Yeah that’s the point. You want to be energy starved
You want to pool just enough to keep envenom buff applied, but not so much that you’re wasting possible envenom usage with 200 energy

spice surge
#

And then you'll be above 50%

tough basalt
#

Oh so it’s still ran just for that 20s window?

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.

prisma monolithBOT

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.

  • No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
  • 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
  • You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target

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

Hi, should I watch out for the increased duration time on Rupture when I want to keep it on the target? So due to the deathstalker talent its duration is increased by 3 sec. So on 7 combo point its duration is 35 sec. Is this mean its new pandemic is 10.5 sec?

Curious question on how you guys manage AoE in keys. I seem to be having difficulty juggling it all.

  1. 5 active ruptures (20% dex, and energy regeneration)
  2. Crimson tempest active and running
  3. burst windows with Envenom/mutilate through caustic splatter.

The issue i'm mostly running into is globals. 2-3 (sometimes 4) globals per rupture reapplication, and/or crimston tempest application. so if we average that at 3 each. that's about 15 seconds to apply the ruptures, and 2 crimson tempests around that. so 21 seconds. with a 5 point rupture only being 27 seconds. . . fitting in those mutilates > envenoms. or a kingsbane somewhere seems . . . tight

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.

needing several globals for caustic spatter on top is what kind of makes it overloaded. .. if spatter was gone and CT did more, or if IC didn't require stealth etc. . . . it's the needing both, and both taking setup. that makes it feel like it's too much

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

if you dont have improved garrote you wouldnt vanish for garrote no

#

Because then it doesnt do anything

Did they fix the combo points thing for DS so you can run full echoing repimand talents now ? I saw it was fixed for Sub but it didnt say anything about Sin

if theirs no master assassin or improved garrote, then i don't know why you'd vanish in burst.

or i guess its worth for the +2 combo points

vanish ambush is bugged to not give an extra stack

slate crown

(Except that marks got broken with ambush ^)

spice surge

#

i only recall DF when i watched whyper break down the entire t hing. and it was MA mostly for why you vanished in the last 2-3 seconds of kingsbane. and last 5 seconds for shiv and thistle tea

novel star
#

so without it being used for the extra deathstalker mark its just worse than mutilating

!fuu

If you dont have imp garrote vanish doesnt do anyhting, you dont need to cast it

Mutilate and ambush does the same damag

solar bramble
#

master assassin as well

novel star
#

ambushing for extra mark was like +0.7%dmg patchwerk sim

#

before it was bugged

#

now it does nothing

#

so you just hold vanish for adds or bugs

if taken

ya vanish for marks and adds i like a lot more than needing it for the 2m window

gar just better burst windows

#

but idgaf

solar bramble

more flexible

vanish qol is insane

fallow sonnet

ohhhh i should vanish for ambush from stealth to apply deathstalkers mark

solar bramble
#

ya now make it a 1m cd outside pvp

fallow sonnet

right?

solar bramble

for non outlaws

spice surge

if you already have the mark or darkest night it doesnt matter

slate crown

#

cause i want it for those chain pull tanks lol. . . not because it isn't duable. but my sanity would rather apply faster

Without imp garrote, you dont need to vanish

Question for my fellow rogues
Does anyone else experience issues with trick on Brann? It often feel like none of my threat is redirected to him

# spice surge No

Interesting, Whispyr has you vanishing on the single target rotation anyway

spice surge
#

Yes

#

But its bugged right now

#

so it doesnt matter

novel star

that assumes the bug gets fixed

he doesnt want to update the shit back and forth every hotfix

please guys tell me, during kingsbane buff, IF you did not refreshed bleeds before, do you refresh it during KB or you just spam envenom? and depending on your answer, is it the same rule during DM + KB ?

normal mist
#

you need bleeds in order to get energy

west crown
#

Easy answer is refresh bleeds before

normal mist
#

if you need to bleed, bleed

gentle badger
#

Do we still try to use our thistle tea the last 6 seconds of kingsbane? Even if near full energy?

west crown
#

Overcapping energy with Tea during KB isn’t worth the mastery buff

gentle badger
#

Okay good to know, thanks! So just use it last 6 seconds of KB if the energy won't go to waste, and otherwise just when needed?

foggy quarry
west crown
#

Yeah I personally use it sub 220 but that’s from me not any guide

foggy quarry
#

but ok

#

thanks

crisp shard
#

I could be wrong because I'm dumb, but I usually dump energy and envenom > Tea > KB rotation

#

then tea like halfway through

do you need to recraft another spark ?

gentle badger

Sorry one more question, im coming back from amirdrassil tier to sin. without improved garrote/master assassin/shrouded suffocation in the ST build, what is vanish used for? just a slightly stronger builder for one global? Deathstalker's mark will continue to be reapplied when Darkest Night is consumed right?

west crown
#

The reason for vanishing is currently bugged in ST, don’t use it for now

You can save it in case you lose your mark for rn

pvp gear uses different "sparks"
