Hey i had this issue at the start of the season - i used to have /startattack macros for all my core skills, since it used to be recommended - these were my autoattack culprit. just delete the line

#

is it bad to have embelishment on cloak? because of rasha naan avoidance cloak?

ambush --> garrote --> rupture --> more rupture --> more garrote to reapply silence/spread dots --> FoK to generate points --> CT --> go ham on spatter/marked target

Having trouble finding an answer via wowhead or the handful of guides that ive sought out. When we don't have Darkest Night proc, am I only caring about finishers at 5-7 just to proc the mark? or should i still to go 6-7cp finishers.

oh wow i was doing the pooling wrong, i thought you were supposed to pool while you have the capstone and then spam envenoms when you have the mark applied to fully consume it

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.

#

same, i'm spreading garrotes in IC, getting 5 ruptures out, crimson tempesting, CSing then DM->KB and shoving envenoms into the CS target. i win on several pulls but lose overall by a % point or 2. i'm 619 and the ret pally i run with is 622 but its close enough

yea i just had it backwards

i thought you wanted to consume the 3 stacks asap

regardless of envenom timer

i feel like my envenom dmg is probably low

no I dont have any logs of dungeons either

#

I pretty much only do what whispyr has in his m+ guide either way tho

But yeah

haughty lantern

With dungeons changing seasonally

#

Way too much work

haughty lantern

allows you to stand in dumb shit while still doing dps

spice spire
#

He didn’t say otherwise

stable hamlet
#

i didnt used any buffs on that sim,if u used optimal raid buffs thats smth else

spice spire
#

I did not

#

0 buff

stable hamlet
#

so with 5 ilvl lower u had +20 k dps

#

=))

#

interesting

spice spire
#

Yeah.
Flask and feast tho because like you’ll use those

#

Idr if you had it

stable hamlet
#

i did had them yes

But also rarely will a boss fight be 5m

It’s just a metric and I get that

How to play Mandate trinket correctly in opener?
Pre pull or what? Or during Envenom pandemic pooling when we have nothing else to do?

spice spire
#

What’s your other trinket

tawny geyser
#

Spyglass/Sacbrood.
Still farming Skardyn

spice spire
#

Ahh you just cast it whenever

#

It’s worth as a second on cast

#

Because it’s agnostic

#

It doesn’t get gains or anything

#

It just does a ruck ton or damage

#

So you skardyns on dm window

tawny geyser
#

yeah figured, so far I use it after I pop all cds and then during pooling i send the trinket

haughty lantern
#

mfw sin rogue’s ranged attack (knife throw) has more range than outlaw’s ranged attack (pistol shot/between the eyes)

and the reasoning is because “flintlocks were inaccurate”

as if we don’t have the goblin/gnomish technology to add a bore to our guns

!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

Do you guys use specidic Plater elements to help track bleeds in aoe?

#

For Ceverion's plater profile, is there a way to make the pandemic timer for rupture and garrote highlight the icon with a thicker border or something?

i have all debuffs except my bleeds blacklisted on plater, and i have ghost auras or whatever the hell plater calls em for those

#

If im playing sanguine in raid, do i want to try and stay around 200 energy unless shiv window?

Under 150

i havent used cev's plater but if it has a border already you can find it in the uhhh, scripts? and change the thickness in there

Stay under 50%

Yes, if you use vv

severe sparrow
limber lion
#

No

spice spire
#

No

#

Why would it matter for VV

#

Please read sanguine

#

It literally says ST play vv not sanguine

#

Yeah anecdotally

Am I trippin

spice spire
#

The under 150

#

Is for sanguine

#

Please read sanguine

grim vigil

#

I beg

limber lion
#

As Deathstalker you always stay below 50%

safe shale
#

Lemme re read ahha

limber lion
#

regardless of what talents you play

grim vigil
limber lion
#

It just emphasizes that it uses VV on ST

severe sparrow
#

i think belt and wrists are the suggested craft?

#

im at work and too lazy to double cnfirm that

keen spruce
prisma monolithBOT
#

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

Anyways, yes in an ideal world you would try to stay above 50% but that is not how the game works

safe shale
#

It says above 50%?

spice spire
#

above 50

limber lion
#

We currently avoid Sanguine Blades interaction outside of cooldowns

spice spire
#

It takes energy

hollow pier
#

Yea u don't want it to take energy

limber lion
#

And only get the effect during cds when we go above 50%

severe sparrow
spice spire
#

And means less envenom

safe shale
#

50%%%%%%%%%

limber lion
#

We want to stay under 50% because it eats your energy

safe shale
limber lion
#

And it's not worth it for Sang to eat our energy outside of cds

#

Even with only getting value during cds, it still performs better than some other talents

#

especially when you introduce multiple targets

safe shale
#

Thats what i wasnt understanding, as SG suggests to play above 50%

hard river
limber lion
hard river
#

that's why i hesitated yea

safe shale
#

So how come higher sims are playing SG on ST and not VV?

limber lion
#

What tilts me however are the uncapitalized spell names

#

like sanguine blades and envenom

#

Fatebound and Deathstalker are capitalized

#

but Envenom and Sang aren't

hard river
#

ah yes unforgivable

limber lion
#

Nevermind

#

It sometimes is

it eats energy above 50% to do a lil more damage but the lil more damage is sometimes the best option but sometimes youd be better off spending it on envenoms, but that's probs gonna depend on the fight and the pull and

#

hey yall. When should you start popping thistle? I see logs for some top parsers popping thistle just shortly after popping kingsbane

brazen cave
#

hows assa to play? fun? never tried it but considering testing out rouge but dunno what spec

vital ermine
#

i know for outlaw, the soft rule was if your energy is at 50 or lower, you pop thistle

limber lion
vital ermine
#

ah interesting

limber lion
#

After that you follow 3 rules:

  1. You don't have tea up already
  2. You're in Shiv
  3. You get maximum energy from it,.
#

So you want a 100 energy deficit and you want to use it during cds

vital ermine
#

is there a weakaura that helps with timing on thistle?

#

or i should just git gud?

balmy condor
#

really shouldn't need one

#

are you at like 150 or below and in a shiv window? tea

severe sparrow
#

Is it still on lisonna's kb bar thing?

#

I like looking at that

#

I can't read numbers

balmy condor
#

no

#

because it's not attached to kb at all

vital ermine
#

when you say shiv window, you mean during kingsbane?

limber lion
#

No

#

During Shiv

#

But yes, if you play double shiv with KB, those would line up naturally

vital ermine
#

there's a shiv window? lol

limber lion
#

but the rule applies even without Kingsbane

#

You pressing Shiv

balmy condor
#

brother

limber lion
#

is the shiv window

balmy condor
#

shiv is an 8 second debuff

severe sparrow
#

I was gonna say it doesn't interact w kb these days but I'm usually shivving in kb dogeKek

meowmeowmeow

shy pecan

#

Fair enough tho you are correct

balmy condor
#

cause in m+ you shiv without kb for example

#

stop thinking about kingsbane

i downloaded a weakaura for kb progress tracking and saw a ticker to shiv at a certain time in kb window. i thought you were referrign to that

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.

uhh

to maintain envenom and not clip the buff yes

if you’re playing sanguine blades + deathstalker energy is the opposite though

you wanna avoid 150 so you get more envenoms

Yall quick question. In low keys, when I have a bursty other dps such as frost dk or warrior or something and my cds wouldnt last long enough to ramp. Is it worth it to just save cds for next pull, or send them and cry when my prio target dies with 5 seconds left on deathmark and kingsbane still. And yes, I know this is fixed in higher keys, but pugs do not like me in higher keys so I get to suffer for now

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
