if you're getting CE, then everyone is kind of on board with just getting CE
unless you have m+ players in the raid team that are way better than everyone else
then they're fkin vibe terrorists
like i cant ever be mad when dh gets something over me most of the time
since they’re in all the time for buff
nah, its wr 400-700 where you have 60% of the raid beeing guild hoppers, and they are angry that they dont get their best item setup asap (and then leave for 40wr higher at 4am in the morning)
NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR TITLE PUSH 10 WEEKS FROM NOW KEVIN, TIMMY THE WARLOCK IS GETTING THE TRINKET
God damnit Kevin
but its push week
someone link
ITS PUSH WEEK
gromnak push week clip
GET PUSHED OUT OF THE FUCKING GUILD

Maybe I’m just blind to it I haven’t been in a guild that isn’t entirely focused on prog for a bit and my last guild that was less serious was very chill
I still don't think that 400-700 is even that bad
I saw the most guild hopping from new-mythic raiders / guilds
and people abandoning ship trying to get carried to CE
honestly
so many 5/8 guilds just crumble after their best tier
trying to get into the CE scene if you’re not an absolute god gamer
cuz their rosters just get gutted
by late CE guilds replacing roster
I basically tripped and fell into all of my mythic and CE experience
for me its like
current guild is WR 800-1100 with 2days, and its 0 loot drama cus everyone is focused on just getting CE fast, cus only 2raid days a week means you need to play a good bunch cleaner/progress and learn faster then most
then i was in guilds that where WR200-300, and it was just endless bitching about caster staffs and trinkets 24/7, and half the raidrooster was replaced at the last boss cus so many people left quietly during the tier
ye, trying to "climb" and stuff
the stupid Part is when they dont stop at some point and realise "im happy here" and instead keep trying to climb without the skill to show for the higher level
Maybe I get time to do some top 1k raid guild in 10+ years. But then my reaction time is probably too slow anyway 😅
Yeah I think this is more of a problem on NA when I just did keys and raided to vibe with the boys in a 500-600 wr guild no one really cared aslong as prog was going fine and now in a wr 50 guild it’s not even an argument it’s just going to the best player to put it on I haven’t ever really had any loot drama in my guilds but I could just be lucky or oce are just blessed
Simply join a guild in OG BC that carries on to becoming a CE guild a decade later and always stay in that community
idn not that hard
Bro this is so unfair...
Isnt oce community like
like shmeeps said, its also established guild VS new one tbh
established guilds with a strong core roster have less drama by default
Oce is pretty small yeah
at the higher end
We just can’t catch a break man
I was getting free +15 carry give aways from a streamer in BFA s1
got so many carries that I had enough gear to help them do carries
they invited me to come raid with their CE guild
joined on jaina prog cuz some people had left. first time pulling a mythic boss that wasn't the frist 2 of a raid
first CE they didn't get
didn't play the rest of BFA
GM whispered me while I was playing diablo at SL launch and bought me the xpac so I could come RL their 2nd team
all 3 raid teams disbanded on SLG and guild died
same GM made me buy DF the day before launch to raid with new guild that he was trialing for
he got kicked the first week
we didn't get CE
chicken from original guild told me to come play with skyhold
got first CE

Sorry for you or congrats
I remember asking someone in honestly and he was just like
This is also probably a big part to why I haven’t experienced much loot drama
that had me choke for a second
Sorry you had to go through that experience
this is big true
Depends on the class aswell like genuinely good warriors do not exist oce they are very rare so honestly would probably know every good pick it they needed one
low CE guilds keep big tabs on gamers on their server
No i meant they kept tabs on whos good
Eroka?
Eroka is the warrior yeah
rip thorchas
and their best players
Nukkz returned looking at ethical logs
there's servers that track guild disbands
Sry good warriors exist there’s just not that many right eroka obv a god there’s a few other giga gamers
the problem is
warriors get collectively dumber based on the strenght of the class
warrior strong? well, they gonna be the dumbest mf's you have ever seen
And friends have kind of agreed, most long time havoc mains that are good at what they do.
TRUE (I had to play warrior as a split char and my brain was definitely off when pressing blade storm) oook
Often have questionable personalties
can someone tell me whats breaking my stealth?
Watch ? and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
i shadowstep > ambush but stealth breaks so its presses CT instead (same bind)
no idea
Warrior in my old guild
got told by gromnak he belongs in his own ape enclosure
in the zoo
our warrior died on the first mechanin on sikran
the first 3 pulls
idk how that even works
like, what is doing dmg there that kills you??
i watched a warrior in sanctum charge into boss
while he had chain pull
he got rezzed
and did it again
in the same 20 secs
looks like u right clicked and auto'd but not sure
3times the charm
is there any benefit to macroing thistle tea with shiv ?
average warrior player doesnt know you can just d stance
but he very good
on mechanics you run out with
no, its bad
you waste many many tea charges into nothing
same thing about kings bane i guess
why would you ever
just keybind it
There was a conversation about this earlier tldr it’s not the worst thing to do in the world but if you care about your damage don’t do it just learn to correct timings it doesn’t make your cd window harder

ngl start of sepulcher
i got asked if i wanted to play warrior that tier
in case the warrior trial was too big of a bonobo
I'm pretty sure shadowstep has some startattack logic built into it if the rest of your group is in combat or something to the effect, you're not the only one who this happens to
there any useful macros for assa tho?
We dont have any buttons really
There must be billions of rogue players to have, on one hand, this many people wanting to macro tea at all costs and on the other hand, thinking that the tea change is 2nd cataclysm of azeroth
I think it’s fine on transmitter too if your not Insta proccing the buff
deathmark+trinket and maybe pot i gues
transmitter should be cast before deathmark so you can finish the minigame when you press kingsbane
but that's a tough thing to do
I tend to prefer to press transmitter earlier in cds (flag on sub) so it’s easier to get for the entire dmg window
This
people wo use transmitter
trinket, pot, deathmark
focus kick
focus kidney
"/e pickpockets you for 1g"
I've considered nerfing transmitter in sims because right now it's perfectly completing the minigame at +1 seconds into deathmark to last the last 15 seconds of your burst
having it just cast the trinket with dm and getting the buff asap was one of my ideas for nerfing it
but idk
it's always a very touchy thing
I mean you kinda have to on sub cause if you ever get jump 3x you WILL miss your first ST in your window (as trickster) but imo just play skardyns instead on sin
thanks for the /e pickpocket idea
Skardyns is also better for execute damage im pretty sure and usually that’s what’s important
Yeah dont remind me
stuck in gb jail
like I nerfed witherbark branch in sims as well to pick up the second and third orbs later than was ideal to make it more "human" in that regard
but idk
it doesn't really work anymore cuz it's been around since classic, but maybe some new players will still get got idk
"/e spits on you" also good
AoE spit
🙂 I was lucky and just got one without farming so on brood I didn’t have to think about tiny orb inside big slug
witherbark had like a window of orb 1/2 then extend 3
stagger 3rd
could be worse i had to prog early amir bosses
with igira trinket and snake trinket
fucking painful
Lmfao true that sounds rough
but it was difficult to hold the last orb for the stagger as long as sims
so I made it pick it up a bit earlier
the little wiggle shuffle to edge the last orb
made me both giggle and drove me crazy
yeah idr what igira trinket was called anymore
I’m very glad I was able to play sub for last 3 amir tbh could play ashes not branch
i got nicholas in 3 runs though
I think transmitter is less cringe to use than branch
bandolier?
lol my last vault before extend prison in amir
was choosing between mythic ashes and brand
yeah that
same tier they made mydas not contemplate yeeting your pc out the window
I think later the meta was ashes branch for sub but I never did it cause I don’t care about logs in farm
if you saw it in your chest
Oh yeah ashes branch on tindral was superior pad
that was a go-outside angle
you’d branch vines
and ashes boss
i think i ran it since my other trinket option was at best sandglass
should have seen me loot prydaz in legion
instant logged off
told guildies im not playing wow today

mydas in bfa
unironically I loved prydaz/valeera pants in legion
was comparable to looting a haste neck in legion
valeera’s was ok
saved my ass doing world content
one of my fondest memories in the game is running prydaz/valeera in first boss eye of azshara and taking 0 external healing because I was just spamming feint and shielding the damage
more than i care to admit
and the healer going "wtf rogue"
I think I was 13 in legion playing havoc dh gg I have very little memory but I was told people wanted to die when it took forever to get bis leggo
Gear acquisition was heavey rng?
yeah basically legendaries dropped randomly from content, higher content was a higher chance
but you could spam m+ for weeks and see nothing
and then walk into an LFR wing and see a guy get 2 in a row
and it was just horrid
i got vendetta cdr boots
I don't remember ever getting a legendary
when I played on launch
I quit very quickly

same votw the other 2 dps from azralon got knocked off the ledge
loot drops did me so dirty I came back as an affliction warlock in Antorus
Sounds very rewarding and enjoyable
I remember getting my first legendary from heroic elerethe renferal
Idk, I was a lot more casual in legion but I have a lot of good memories from the legendary system and titanforging
even though I would hate it now
I have heavy rose glasses
nothin like the dopamine hit
i think i was trying to pull mantle
from a fat titan forge
from relinquished vendor
as bad as it was
pretty sure it was on it
that was some good sauce when the slot machine hit
I remember spamming maw of souls and being happy
and that one trinket that was okay
happy
angerboda or whatever
doing maw of souls?
it titanforged like 40 ilvl
and everyone pogged in voice
and I wore it the rest of the tier
it was so sick
funny flavor effect where it procced extra
on deaths
fast, simple, blast
50% chance he got oneshot
how m+ shoudl be
by helya tendies

yeah
wdym make every dung
simple but punishing bosses
as long as dos
the only reason maw of souls is remembered less than fondly
I mean maw is probs my favorite key
peak blaster pov
yeh
I also loved darkheart because the route planning was so interesting cause that place had like 400% trash in legion
and you could skip like 25 packs and still get the count
but blizzard didn't like that apparently when it came back
:3
they brought back dht
Now we have NW
but added no new mechanics
:3
Where u have to pull close to everything
I will never understand why blizzard insists on this
Me neither
like actually one of the most illogical things in the game imo
hey hey hey, you can chose bettwen "do we pull the 4caster pack before the bridge" and "do we pull the 3 portal masters"
Ye I guess
insane choice
adding packs to choose routes and if you can double pull stuff together or if you run a different way there's a more efficient pack later that lines up better with cds
like that's so cool
but blizzard went down the path of hold W and pull everything
which is just
????
i do like going into nw pugs as this spec
Keys are always more fun when there’s a lot of room for creativity with a route
even waycrest manor had that with the different paths you could run
and healer asks where the minibosses hp went
King’s rest
THATS IT
waycrest was such a cool key
JUST HAVE ALL DOORS OPEN
yeah
IMMEDIATELY GOOD
and they just decided not to
and make the witches always spawn in the same place
cuz like
why add the tax of having to walk into m0
just to go look where the fkin witches are
once a week

but honestly, I think encounter design in general has gotten worse over the years lowkey
like even outside of m+
raid fights are getting worse
there used to be like 1 meh fight every raid
what you dont like every endboss having an entire textbook
but now it's like at least 1 bad fight and 1 meh fight
of mechs?
I think this raid is pretty good but yeah I agree for the most part current m+ pool is miserable
to try to be novel
if they just did the basics well
and add in like 1 flavor thing
The worst
Hi guys i havent played since BFA, can someone recommend me an updated guide for the talents and rotation
!builds
!build
!guide
!builds
Brood is the only boss I think is objectively bad this raid im not sure how I feel about silken probably pull that this week and hate it or love it

Despair
for dps it's pretty okay but like ovi'nax??????? Silken court????? and like don't look at tank gameplay, cause that's miserable
tanks are actually full agony
cause their tank mechanic design
is so giga shit
Yeah tanks are gg
at least they're trying to make raid tanking interesting
they're just not doin a good job

Is silken that bad? I didn’t mind the look but I haven’t done much prep only watched vods
at least ovinax is going to be a meme next reset, so only court remains
Ovi’nax will be a meme for people who have killed or done a bit of prog I think guilds getting to it just now it will still be a real boss
the same color as the floor
this is a 15 second window on rasha'nan
W for visibility
and it's legit just a dot
because lmao you didn't immune it
monk on that fight is miserable
All I know for rash and brood
because they're a damage smoothing tank, not an "immune everything" tank
was getting absolutely farmed
stagger not working again?
on that boss
That is unreal tank dmg for 4th boss
me when i get asked if i tricks tank on add spawns
yeah but my instant aoe is nothing compared to a warrior’s
gl
idk the exact details but the tank mechanic is that it does a dot based on the unmitigated damage from the tank buster, and something something something mitigate 80% but still get obliterated
I think it's a monk thing with stagger but I'm not sure if it's just monk bad
or actual bug
fixing warr's threat gen with tricks is hilarious
that screenshot is 2 stacks lmao
BDK and prot war could float 3 stacks with defensives
i mean even as outlaw you cant
so brutal
i was actually called out today cuz cba trixing on ovi, not playing ct
im asking cus like
stagger doesnt work on a bunch kf things this expansion for some reason lol
do a mist key, the dragon inside the maze? its tank buster ignores stagger and just 1hit kills a brewmaster unless they stack every singke deffensive cd they have
dont do enough threat
monk bugged? impossible

wanna know how we did that on a +11?
our warrior taunted and ran away and then melded

so the tank doesnt die
cus brewmaster has no deffensives on that enemy
10/10 blizz
grm batol endboss is also a fun one
oh you get a tank buster that 1hit kills you from full hp unless ylu have a STRONG deffensive up
and it knockbacks
oh and also adds spawn wide spread out that kill ylur teammates in 2hits
I had to make a WA to remind me not the our tricks does much we still had to play MM
absolute unit
they got nerfed
by 66%
and
no longer crit



the perfect shoulder-to-head ratio for a warrior
since im starting to do +10s should i use hybrid build or stick with bleed build
hybrid gud
hybrid is already better way below 10s imo
hybrid gud for everything
it really depends on your group
does it actually have good single target cause the bleed build does not
how much difference is the hybrid compared to bleed for single target
atleast threefiddy
not much probably
considering
once again
rogue st is just dogshit no matter what you do
dont build around it
hybrid just a better build
just play hybrid
i run wiht a affliction lock and a demon hunter and all 3 of us suck at single target
if mobs die slower than like 15 seconds
hybrid is just better
and yes
for the 3rd time
do not adjust your build for st
it wont matter
hybrid is around 10% behind full raid spec
we are dogshit in st even with raid talents
it's not relevant to the decision of what build to play
u play hybrid
cuz hybrid is a better buid

okay ty
its not gonna break your dungeon if a boss lives 10 seconds longer
Did i play hybrid in my keys 

so my issue might be the comp and classes i run with
probably
I mean u can do 10s with any comp
^
i dont think lock and demon hunter is good for me
but yeah eventually
In regards to tea during shiv when it doesn’t overcap energy, do we do this when we have enough energy to last the whole shiv duration? I’m mainly asking in regards to m+ st if raid talents affect things
that comp will hit a ceiling
ideally are we wearing 5p or replacing chest with the one from M+
very eventually
u replace chest
if your sim tells you to
ye, thought so
I mean i have chest lined up already, just no set gloves, so it's one of those small min/max things
Hybrid 
fair
but once you're in full myth track and dialing things in
it will likely be the one you drop
Are you guys talking about the crit mast chest from dg?
i'm just talkin about gearing in general
how often do u guys use tea only during shiv or do u press it outside of shiv as well ?
supposed to only press it during shiv
i press it outside cause im stuck in df and as long as you're getting the 100 energy it's like 80% efficient
but you should aim to only press inside shiv
sometimes the boss is just at 3% and you dont wanna pool
if the boss is under 5% im hitting every button i got
tea, shiv without kb
anything
esc?
ye
yeah if the boss is like 20 seconds from dying you should be sending legit everything you have left
the good old "use 2tea at once cus boss is at 3% hp"

very common mistake to finish a boss with stuff remaining
always my biggest leak
I'm getting much better about it this tier
quite upset i had to pug aotc on week 3 because the guild i applied to is just that terrible but it is what it is 

my guild still 4/8 but we raid one night a week and i love them
i dont really have much reason to like or dislike my guild
because i havent been with them for long
but we spent 2 hours on heroic court because of the most indefensible shit ive ever seen
so
leaning towards dislike
true rogue pov, we just kinda exist, and the guild just accepts us.
I was not the one who put the dagger through the raid!
5% ovi egg trinket buff, real good no?
thats how it should be
i was surprised
the boss is legit easy
but my rl decided to assign 2 hunters to the rope mechanic
instead of assigning 2 good players

We did it as tanks
wasted 2 hours
feels like this
yeah
Anyone got advice for stonevault last boss? I swear tanking him in mid is cursed as melee
after wiping for an hour i finally caved and did it, set focus to the person and shadowstepped them, ezpz
i mean im not gonna just go in and take the shit when theres people assigned to it
Also my average parse was an 86 so I am doing just fine while too drunk to function
that would be worse
i didnt care enough to ask
can't wait to do this for ansurek
if we die in p3 from the circle closing in, we die together
we spent an hour on mythic ulgrax again and kept enraging because we have multiple tank dam dps
this is love
wait ulgrax has an enrage?
yes man
Yeah it is, try to premove to leave the dot. Can cloak it too I believe, as a solo melee you should always have uptime on boss so tank should move out for the circles while you remain on boss ideally
10 min or some shit
huh
what u been doing 10 mins there
and ive told him specifically that if he has rotation issues he can dm me and ill answer any question instantly
but he hasnt messaged me once
dratnos guide video the boss enraged because they had like 4 dead dps
SNAP
i know someone asked a similiar question earlier but i need a bit more clarification on it. do we spam 5+ cp envenoms during kb outside of shiv window?
IN THIS GUILD
monka
whispyr hasn't been down in the swaps in too long
outside of cooldowns you 5+ cp envenom for the buff
so you envenom, build cp, then wait for envenom to get to like 1-ish seconds remaining
and envenom again
they thought purple blast wave was dps increase, turns out, it makes them unalive.
Are you talking single shiv? You want to spam envenom during kingsbane regardless
yeah exactly
Doesn't it feel good knowing that your dps ceiling isn't as high, and that you never have to worry about asking for loot in raid?
look at this shit bro @balmy condor
13% 10 minutes 
I noticed our other rogue had hybrid talents with CT and iron wire for every fight, I whispered her on like 3rd boss the fatebound raid build and she said "I'll check it out after raid"
it's time to go outside at that point
QA ring 1.5% for assa, 3.5% for hunter
hello everyone, can I ask why is double regicide recommended over other weapons that have both crit and mastery on them?(such as crafted daggers)
I would look but my eyes already suck
the heroic court kill was 10:52pm and immediately after is when the call was made to go try mythic again
thanks friendly people
somehow we wasted 20+ minutes jerking the fuck off
639 > 636
explaining the boss
instead of pulling
i truly cannot understand how it gets this bad

theres nothing to even explain he has no mechanics
sorry im venting
i mean why dont u quit at this point

cause half the team is pretty legit and im running m+ with some of em
and they havent left yet
u describe it as legit worst possible crap
If my raid lead can't explain a fight in under 2m he just says "you'll figure it out just pull"
i will follow wherever they go

bad tanks on ulga = bad time
the logic for assa gearing is 636 crafted with embellish > 639 > 636 crafted > whatever 626 hero track stuff I guess idk
move to right spot, wait for adds to come to you, blow everything up, feed, kill boss
yea
unfortunately im having to take ct
because our fury warrior does ZDPS zdps
and the mobs just arent dead by the time the aoe gets scary

you just want to pad aoe for your parse you fucking rat
I see you
nibbling on your cheese
I mean, I didn't get to parse at all in our M Ulga kill, because I was asked to clear webs for the lock gate with cloak on CD
ratatouille type shit out here
i literally have to bitch we are wiping to feeding
its bad
meanwhile 3 hunters just chilling with turtle
it's okay guys, i'll take the grey parse 😂
GRAAAH
got a point here
it's only the 3rd week and the collective mental is already dissolving into tapioca pudding
your wipes look hella good tho i bet
meh
I woke up at 10am, went flying, then had a lovely twilight round of golf with my friend. 
next thing I know, oli is gonna be making me a soup so good it makes me remember my mother's cooking in my childhood and it causes me to change my ways and realize that there's more to food than fine dining and good cooking can come from anyone
wait a second

this means you have to drift deathmark and kingsbane to wait for vanish right? since you press vanish like 8 gcds after deathmark in opener
i cant cook sorry wrong type of gay for that im just useless
is the moral of the story from ratatouille and the menu the same
i think the moral of the story from ratatouille is that rats are cool and nice
yes
and very friendly
hoodie goblin gay or too-pretty-to-cook gay
goblin

that sounds like exactly what a rat would say
that's a hampter
why is he so flat

hampter get very flat
source??
can confirm, when I was little I played with a hampter and flung it over my head like a lasso but it slipped and slammed full force into a wall
that hampter was very flat

W lasso hampter
I was like 8 shmeeps leave me alone
judging me and shit like you've never murdered a hamster through sheer blunt force drywall impact before
Whispyr can you see a spatter reduction to accomodate for ST positive tuning?
fucking bigot
i ran over a squirrel once cuz someone told me not to swerve if there's an animal in the road cuz you'll crash
god I hope so, that's literally what I've been begging for since like july
but i was goin like <20mph
and oculda just stopped
but for some reason my brain also put brakes into the "Swerve" category
so i just slowly rolled over it

a fury warrior doing no dps on ulga adds? 🤔 Buddy having trouble finding his bladestorm and odyns fury buttons ?
Ya
idk guild had to rebuild from like no players but gm doesnt seem to want to cut people out and keep recruiting even tho they dont know their rotations
saving them for boss immune phase
so
I remember my mom driving me home from school one day and I saw a dead racoon in the street and my mom like swerved but not nearly enough and I was like mom you just drove over the roadkill and she did not break her gaze on the road, deadpan just told me "I was trying to match the tire tracks but I think I was a little left" and we didn't say anything the rest of the ride home

i mean i kinda get it tho...
cuz tire part already flat
so less squish
squish bad
dont eff with mom, got it.
I think it was more the dopamine of like
there's a groove
tire go in groove
satisfying
(sorry for a "stats dont matter" question, but this is confusing me) I've been using hectic add cleave to approximate broodtwister and the sim REALLY likes haste for some reason. does anyone know:
- why would haste be so good for hectic add cleave with CT and no indiscriminate carnage
- is this even close enough to broodtwister to reference usefully
I don't think we use hectic add cleave
hectic add cleave likes haste because it's still inherently a single target fight and haste is good
hectic add cleave is probably the closest you can get to broodtwister to be fair
but closest doesn't mean close
i was hoping to be validated by whispyr, but alas, i have been betrayed once again
and I think the adds on hectic add cleave generally just last way longer
I haven't looked into hac in a while
but I wanna say maybe 12 second uptime on 6 adds?
for 60% of the fight
or something like that
how does the HAC sim compare to your patchwerk sim @onyx sigil
so like KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINDA
but not really
so it's like 12 seconds of 6 adds, 8 seconds of nothing, then adds again
which is very much not the cadence of broodtwister
my ST sim in the same spec is crit ~= mastery ~= haste >= vers (stats dont matter)
but the hectic add cleave has me like change rings and regen and enchant for like 3-4% gain
are you running CT/sang blades?
not sang blades, yes CT
I mean HAC is completely unsupported yes
but I can't think of a reason why it would like haste that much
unsupported in the way of like, there might be nonsense that it does that the sim can't account for
but in theory the sims are written in a way where it just works
im gonna slap on some multi-hour 40k lore videos and honk shoo
I can't really recommend it for gearing decisions though

I see. ok, ty
no
never had crocs
I'm taking a girl flying next week
that would be romantic
maybe she get motion sickness and pukes on me
maybe weather bad and I make her wake up at 7am for nothing

if you go down make sure you say "KOBE!" when it happens
and then like
pretend you're airballing a 3
I can't even see how they can be comfy tho
Yellow is good - I have blue ones and they are great for around the house and outside
so i don't smudge up the hardwood with my stinky bare feet

I have grey
cant you pull those off and stick them on other ones?

hello fellow bleed lovers
!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
Guys why does Zekvir reset everytime i try and open on him from stealth?
do you tricks brann
I send it sometimes if i have a juicy DN proc on a huge pack dunno if thats efficient tho
what is that spell?
you can
but if you open from stealth and tricks brann
Bosses seem to reset
idk why
You need to tricks him out of stealth
Yeah. Should tricks after you open
Brann is in stealth too so it sends the aggro on someone not in combat and bugs out
ty
Anyone done some clever things with the trinket updates? Has my super sexual skardyn's grace become less valuable?
is the Darkmoon sigil ascension without the Writhing Band, a lot worse?
yes
you could say its half as good
Exactly
But if I have a wrist with the dawnthread instead, is it still worth having?
Right
Band + ascension or 2x dawn
I got a 619 dagger, but was considering to get another for the dual wield
buddy of mine also has one of each cause he didnt plan ahead. Its not the end of the world
just wait for your 636 upgrades to fix it
no
offhand doesnt matter
I havent created one, i have only created wrist with dawnthread so far, and have an order up for wait
waist*
whats the issue then
Okay, if offhand doesnt matter, than I stick to the original plan
no its not an issue, its a matter of curiosity and experimentation
i asked a question
other people did the experimentation so you dont have to
had same issue on assa, just switched to Sub and can even vanish mid fight. No issues there
And Im grateful for it!
Hey, I had a quick question, on guides it's marked to keep garrot and rupture up during the fight, if this is AOE, should we keep CT as well ? Or just funnel envenom for the rest of fight ?
Only thing I didnt know was the offhand irrelevance
its not that its completely irrelevant. its just a "normal" item upgrade without the fat weapon bonus you get from mainhand
so most of the time its better to get something else
If you have CT you'll want to have it up on 2+ targets as well
if you have it talented and there are >1 targets, yes
Ohhh okay okay, do you guys have an overall to refer for +10 key ? 🤔 I think I miss something in single target then too 🤔
spatter should be top
I got this but I don't remember from who 🤔
Still waiting for SD to come back to Sin 😦
yeah depends on pulls. If you dont do gigapulls crimson tempest´will be lower
and envenom higher
Question for M+ optimal play, when going from pack to pack stealthed, what is preferred opener, ambush or garrote? Is it better to ambush to get mark immediately or would it be better to open with gar and get your garrotes, rupture, caustic maybe even CT up asap and only then hit max cp envenom as you still have darkest night up from the previous pack? Or it doesnt matter much?
Thanks ! I'll try some key to see today
After it's maybe cause of my stats ? Idk if it change a lot ? 🤔
yo is bubbling wax gonna get fixxed or am i gonna have to use money to buy shit
Feels like I should get more crit maybe ?
doesnt matter that much - stats are fine
Okay ! Thanks
just wear what sims best
Yup I should looks to run sims again to my crafts
Wouldn't count on it, 99% sure the change to not being able to use it on high ilvl items was the "fix"
!tricks
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
!restealth
Explanation of why stealth benefits aren't as important as you might think:
- Garrote is roughly 10-12% of people's damage in a key, most of which is already empowered/cleaved
- Most energy spreading will come from Rupture to maintain scent of blood, not garrote
- Without a Trace (+1 vanish charge) only grants roughly 2 additional casts across a whole dungeon
- While Without a Trace can allow for better vanish timings, the difference in damage provided is at most replacing a non-stealth opener with a stealth opener (you aren't necessarily getting "added" casts, just "better" casts)
- You can argue that it "feels bad", but numerically there is very little ground to stand on, the dps simply isn't there.
if the bug would get fixed where you can consume marks whilst having the DN buff up i would say opening with ambush would be better. With that "bug" existing you cant consume any deathstalker stacks anyways until you have cast a 7cp envenom, therefor unless your DN is about to run out i would just opene with gar-rup and so on
personal opinion, didnt look at sims, this seems reasonable to me
rogue is a strong 7-11th raid dps dont give up! 
Daft question, are their any caps for our stat prioritys as i currently feel i have a little too mich mastery and not enough haste 👀
yes
when the sim tells you to pick the vers/haste item
over the mast/crit item
thats your "cap"
Oh im good then yay 😅
Im having such bad luck with daggers. Even tried to be a scumbag and raid lead normal and hc making sure im the only rogue 😅
Praying for vault to come through 🙏
You wanted a cloak?
i have gotten like 5 daggers already from mists and i disenchant it each time cause i dont need them

Cloak is actually unironically my lowest level piece rn
but my trinket loot luck is a different story
Annoyingly the first week raiding on my mage 2 regicides dropped and got transmog rolled 😭
Cloak is also my lowest 😅😅
well thats just karma for not playing rogue smh
I didnt know treacherous transmitter was rollable by every class. I had not been so dissapointed by a trinket drop in years
i dont even want that trinket, gimme skardyns and i will be happy
Ye. As I play sub
606 veteran skardyn here 
Impossible to get into arakara keys unless we have our own tho without god rng
Skardyns just not dropping for me (I havent been in a Grim Batol since M+ day 1)
that i agree on, i have run 2 arakaras this season because im legit never getting in there 
Shammy got it in my group and gave me it
The legend
I've done a ++9 arakara and still don't get taken at 613 itlvl 😅
Half the keys I've done were my own and I stg blizzard just keeps swapping me between mists and stonevault
Too many big dps / groups
613 is "low", there are 60 people in queue
you either need to stand out with rio or with ilvl
I've had about 100 siege keys
Still no bloody spyglass
I spent my crests pretty poorly too 👀
I was using a 590 blue til I got sacbrood today
city and necrotic here
You get hc sacbrood?
Yes
My god, i didn't know about that bug 😮 is it bugged like 100% of time or does it sometimes consume marks or just never?
if you have DN you cant consume any marks so no need to put up a mark (afaik it still exists and it never consumes)
may someone smarter correct me if im wrong 
Im so glad i asked then, i was blindly opening with ambush from pack to pack not even paying attention to consuming marks
i also do that because i dont wanna hit a moment without a mark 
If thats the case i think its just better to spread bleeds and then go for max cp env
its more of a failsafe for me
Ngl, I thought that was just the intended mechanic 
i mean we could consume marks before
Trinkets confazzle me, my delve trinket is simming higher than skardyns trinket
then they fixed the bug where you lost your mark if you had DN up and consumed the last DS stack with a 7cp envenom
and with that fix now we cant consume stacks with DN active
sim do be correct
Sims also say that transmitter is bis

and i will take my gameplay and like 0.7% dps loss over playing a shitty minigame mid bl aoe pull in a +12 or whatever
The only explenation for why my delve trinket sims so high is prob because i have 12k mastery base
The serum one
eh just send the sim
Dont have it on me, did sims yesterday at home, at uni now
i mean if serum is higher ilvl than skardyn its probably gonna outsim it
BUT serum is a 1.5sec channel
I just did droptimizers for heroic skardyns vs heroic serum, serum 2k more dps at same ilvl
Cast time 
Yeah its a bit aids
Thats why i want skardyns to sim higher 
1.160m
Yes
Any dps upgrade matters progging mythic
How else am i supposed to sim higher than my 0 parse on mythic rashanan?

(I hate my life)
so ye its 3.8k dps higher than my 606 skardyn
but i cant macro it
and i would have to get it out of a delve
well, your gear seems to be utter shit anyway
2 things i refuse to do
You can macro it, just have to press the macro twice 
i simmed without raidbuffs/bl and in the hybrid build
but ye i got garbo trinkets
people are so sim-drunk
