Depends. If you plan to drive on the Autobahn one day, its always better to have more

#

But for real tho its called haste

waxen oyster
#

I feel like that tier bonus is largely not talked about

grim jay
#

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 This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec.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

Remember when vendetta was exsang

#

And we played ct single target

#

Quick question about SoB. Does anyone else feel really weak on the last boss? I find it hard to do any meaningful dmg

grim jay
#

The whole Boss is weird

#

Probably the number one miserable experience in m+

silk sundial
#

It's all single target. So usual opener on the first tentacle. But after that it's kinda meh. Apply bleeds to the other tentacles as you get to them but cds don't line up well in my experience

#

Other than that boss I like the rest of SoB

does feint reduce damage taken from swirlies on broodtwister?

For weapon enchants, is it Authority of Depths/Radiant Power on both weapons or are people doing one Depths and one Radiant Power for Raid/M+ content?

does not following one of these rules instantly make it worse than VV @balmy condor or is it still very small all in the end

#

assuming for his gear*

balmy condor
#

all the rules he listed are just regular ass rules idk

#

like that's just basic rotation

magic ginkgo
#

In ST fights while just playing envenom timer outside of cooldowns, should we always have 6 or 7 CP or is it okay to send at 5?

fleet pagoda
#

5's okay. just worry about reaching 7 for DN

spring sigil
#

Holy shit i hate the affix this week. Just went from a +9 SV down to a +6 because the blue boss kept getting shield during his own shield phase

#

Not fun at all

fleet pagoda
#

the emissary going away at certain points seems to reset some bosses too

#

valiona reset on my key earlier this week at 48% thanks to the emissary lol

That's my indie company

I swear they just don't test anything

I think it's less abrasive for area-denial bosses compared to last week's affix, but yeah it feels bad having to hard switch sometimes

lucid pike
#

Why is sanguine blades not recommended for DS (vs. VV)? it sims higher than VV and seems to be overwhelmingly taken in raid

shadow spindle
#

guys is it worth using poisoned knife to land on a charge cp or you just continue normally?

iron carbon
#

Continue

fleet pagoda
#

the way of the universe would dictate that the poisoned knife crits and gives you two cp anyways kekw

shadow spindle
#

ty

fleet pagoda
#

you can, it's still super buggy though. last i knew it didn't work on oh and if you died you needed to unequip and re-equip the weapon

i think so. if gold's tight just take the cheapest thing and forget about it tbh

glacial crypt

oh also can i use the charged cp for rupture or envenom only?

is dawnthread even good? should i just make a dagger with ascension

raven egret
#

!craft

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

^ this

blissful cosmos
#

when playing sanguine blades with death stalker we still always want to stay under 50 percent energy any way right

#

its just a talent for when we cant hit boss in raid?

#

i see alot of rogues play it in raid

#

i thought its cause of downtime

iron valve
#

pure single target builds drop it

willow cloud
#

downtime is unavoidable

blissful cosmos
#

i think its good on bosses even on pure single target

#

cause we cant always hit the boss

balmy condor
#

that's cope

#

you have 300 max energy

#

just burn your energy before downtime

#

you'd have to be off the boss for like 10 full seconds for your energy to fully recover

#

in which case like

blissful cosmos
#

how about rashnan when it flys away

balmy condor
#

what are you doing

waxen oyster
#

Downtime isnt even long

waxen oyster
blissful cosmos
#

in our opener it does alot with lust

west crown
#

Yeah only like 5-6 total for Rash

balmy condor
#

I looked up my mythic rash

#

those are the 3 points I overcapped

waxen oyster
#

im pretty sure

balmy condor
#

you're telling me to take a talent

#

for those 6 seconds total

waxen oyster
#

sb is taken due to DN bug

balmy condor
#

in a fight?

waxen oyster
#

isnt it

balmy condor
#

imp gar is

#

sang is questionable

blissful cosmos
#

i dont know man always every top rogue on logs play it

waxen oyster
blissful cosmos
#

almost

waxen oyster
#

and top log doesnt mean they’re the best

#

or running optimal

balmy condor
#

I mean just in the top 5 on rash, there's 2 without sang, and one with master assassin

runic hinge

They’re playing fatebound and only getting tails the whole fight

#

let me check

#

a couple of pulls

waxen oyster
#

whispyr do you think the average player looks at top logs

balmy condor
#

god I hope not

waxen oyster
#

past the talent and gear overview

blissful cosmos
#

83 percent of top rogues on logs takes sanguine blades even on silkran

balmy condor
#

good for them

waxen oyster
#

Ok most players dont religious stalk talent pages

#

for sub 0.5% gains

blissful cosmos
#

the bosses tleports so much

#

that you will get above 50 energy from not hitting it

waxen oyster
#

What does that have to do with anything

#

Most players aren’t sweating over tiny gains

balmy condor
#

brother you are thinking about this way more than the 83% of people taking it

waxen oyster
#

just play better

keen spruce
#

just how braindead the average player is

waxen oyster
keen spruce
#

average player probably isn't even setting foot in the raid

waxen oyster
#

you have people making up reasons why high logs arent checking wowhead guide updates

keen spruce
#

average raider probably isn't going into heroic

You know what I've lied

I do have an m+ talent loadout

And one of those loadouts is specifically for Queen because my guild is stuck on it so it’s usually 3

fleet pagoda

#

Has anyone tried both the poison build with Vicious Venoms and a bleed build with Sanguine Blades? I've been running VV but after checking top logs, SB is used most. SB sims higher for me as well. Does it play very different?

Is assa rogue a high apm class like fire mage or is it more chill and less proc reaction heavy?

been playin around in the wa settings, any1 know if i can get rid of everything except the green envenom buff bar ? i dont need a wa that shows garrote rupt CT splatter etc etc just want the envenom bar

fleet pagoda
#

is everything in a group? can just pull the stuff you want from the group out or into a new group and then delete the one with all the stuff you don't want

silk sundial
#

does it play much different then or is it preference? Does SB require less uptime attacking the boss, being more DOT focused, thus more forgiving on mechanics?

#

Or is it just skilled players copying a high parse build

balmy condor
balmy condor
silk sundial
#

I thought it buffs dmg if you're above 50%

fleet pagoda
#

all our damage is coming from envenom right now, so you don't want to take resources away from that

balmy condor
#

yeh

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

it buffs above 50%

worn tinsel
balmy condor
#

that's why you want to stay under 50%

onyx rain
#

man i am seeing conflicting data. we using mad queens over transmitter? or vice versa

#

assume we dont get skardyns because that shit doesnt exist

silk sundial
#

Cause under 50% means more envenom casts, more Deathmark procs etc. Just thought it was odd so many people run SB instead

balmy condor
#

skardyns/transmitter is slot 1

#

mandate/basically any other thing for slot 2

cunning needle

!pooling

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

In ST, should you ever cast shiv outside of KB windows if running 2 shive talent?

fleet pagoda
#

nah

balmy condor
#

also shouldn't ever cast tea outside of shiv

silent drift
#

so when you cast shiv and kb with thistle tea, full focus is SPAMMING envenoms as much as possible?

#

at 5cp of course

runic hinge
# balmy condor sure if it sims higher

What if I play something that sims lower cause it’s not stupid af transmitter that has me getting killed by mechanics while I’m chasing a dumbass ball

you vanish for improved garrote before deathmark right? not after (only in opener)?

Hi, just a question when do we generally want to shiv on m+ packs ? After the garrote rup and CT? Or after env for caustic

coral ibex
#

shiv sucks in aoe, just cast it to cover the end of your kb

fleet pagoda
#

you don't really want to shiv in aoe unless you're trying to kill a specific target with your cd's asap

#

for overall throughput not so good

coral ibex
#

and there are mobs in current m+ that can be shiv'd to dispel

indigo elk
#

So we generally don't shiv unless we kb ?

fleet pagoda
#

for overall aoe probably not even then

#

If you aren’t getting consistent death grips CT isn’t too good. Good for a 1 casts per group of adds with death grip

how is this possible? there is delay between vanish changing stance bar?

I dont have mutilate in my bar while stealth

"managing" is very

err

xd

static glacier

it's categorically true

balmy condor

and then not taking CT

people just fully missing the plot at this point

first no tricks and now PADDING?

it's literally more single target

when do i press fan of knives on st?

what are the rules on fan of knives

couldnt find it on wowhead

now THAT is the juice

winged sun

I don't know it's name but it's a little grey icon

winged sun

whats the "little" buff

spice spire

Clear the witnesses

static glacier

jokes aside we just need to get through the fight without silly deaths / egg misses and it's a kill

spice spire
#

Consume dn get ctw

static glacier
#

getting to 6m consistently now

winged sun
#

and when i have spatter up i spam fan of knives on how many targets? regardless of clear the witness while having spatter up?

static glacier
#

i reckon it dies on mon

spice spire
#

But it’s fine to do

#

Like two/3 mobs nah

winged sun
#

like i can spam fok on 2 targets ya

static glacier
spice spire
#

Fok on two is fine

static glacier
#

2 is deffo no

#

no shot 2t is worth

spice spire
#

2t is contextuallyniirc

balmy condor

fok on 3 or more, 2 or more if you're running thrown precision deathstalker

winged sun

i want the most dps

ya im running thrown death

ok

another victim

i still dont understand the target swapping

Wdym

is there a place where it explains it? like for example

6 mobs

get back to your spot quickly

no one will know

i can just garrote my main target 3 times?

#

Indiscriminate Carnage Targetting and Swapping
TLDRMouseovers/Target swapping is optimal on 6 target, or 8+ targets, but not necessarily required

  • The 2 Bleeds spread by carnage are smart and will prioritize mobs without the bleed. If everything already has bleeds it'll apply randomly
  • You as the character are still casting the bleed against your target like normal, this is why people will sometimes use mouseover macros or swap targets

Swapping targets is situationally better, but can be ignored if you're having difficulties with it. Take 5 mob aoe as an example, your first garrote cast will apply to 3 targets (your target + 2 more). Regardless of if you swap or not, your second cast of garrote will hit your target, and then apply 2 more garrotes, prioritizing the mobs that do not have garrote. In very large aoe pulls (12 or more), a standard opener (garrote-garrote-rupture-rupture-garrote-garrote) will only apply 9 garrotes (3+2+2+2) and 5 ruptures (3+2) if you do not swap, losing you 3 garrotes and a rupture.

It is technically worse, but the situations in which you lose bleeds aren't very common; the lost ruptures/garrotes don't contribute much to your already flooded energy, you don't get additional scent of blood stacks, etc. The loss is purely the extra damage from those bleeds.

winged sun
#

or do i have to swap targets for more dps?

earnest remnant
#

if we killed it 8 seconds earlier

static glacier
#

ngl i could push more bossdam but i play for aoe when it comes to a choice

winged sun

sheeesh big

imma blame the people that died

glacial crypt

so we didn't kill it at 7:40

but 7:57 instead

on our best pull I did win bossdam

Should have procc’d blindside more

Tbh

#

after next CDs set hehe

west crown
#

When you say press CT for damage increase do you mean press with crit proc or maintain

static glacier
west crown
#

For single target

static glacier
#

you dont press it in pure st

glacial crypt
spice spire
#

Ct is always a a maintenance

static glacier
#

on ovi ct is fairly high uptime but we still dont press it if there's no adds up

runic hinge
#

What if I crit clear the witnesses

static glacier
#

i SWEAR it was 3

balmy condor
#

technically should be pressing it in single target as well but that's too much brain power

fresh kelp
#

For Broodtwister, should i stay on boss and splash onto adds?

balmy condor
#

it changed in like august

#

been 2 for a while

static glacier
#

we just maintain ct forever?

glacial crypt
#

lol

indigo elk
spice spire
west crown
#

Maintaining CT is pure ST feels like I would run out of energy quick trying to keep envenom up and end up losing uptime on something

balmy condor
#

CT single target is left as an exercise to the reader

#

but CT 2 target always yep

spice spire
#

Like you’re energy is good + your envenom buff will remain active + you’re out of CDs + L + ratio?

static glacier
#

bro we're fucking back to ct st again

balmy condor
#

no

spice spire
#

Oh

static glacier
#

new twist the knife should hopefully kill this

balmy condor
#

uhhh

#

I don't think so actually

spice spire
#

Oh I just reread

#

That’s uh

#

Cursed

west crown
#

Can’t wait for the 5% damage buff from Twist the knife and taking double vanish and master assassin for buff uptime…

balmy condor
#

yeah I can't wait either for something that isn't happening

winged sun
#

!opener

glacial crypt
static glacier
#

@balmy condor thoughts on rupture's for energy regen on last worm / spider up on ovi? been doing it but unsure if it's wurf

glacial crypt
#

the wowhead guide has a lot of openers with graphics depending on the build you're running^^ Should definitely check them out

balmy condor
#

probably don't live long enough

#

like sniping isn't just "haha I get energy = value"

#

your rupture still has to survive like 7? seconds I think minimum

glacial crypt
balmy condor
#

which I doubt you're getting

static glacier
#

7 is doable on a few of em, but just for energy is a scam?

balmy condor
#

yes

static glacier
#

guessing the loss of dn / envs aint worth

glacial crypt
#

Maths is wild

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

balmy condor
#

I mean it’s pretty straightforward

#

You have combo points and energy to spend on something

glacial crypt
#

TO YOU

keen spruce
slate crown
balmy condor
#

You could spend it on instant damage

frigid pilot
#

playing without dashing scoundrel

#

feels like ASS

balmy condor
#

Or a rupture which gives energy back

frigid pilot
#

im starved

keen spruce
#

y no do ddis

frigid pilot
#

my haste ius low too

#

14%

glacial crypt
balmy condor
#

The energy alone does not offset the instant envenom damage

#

So you have to have rupture damage offset the rest

frigid pilot
raven egret
#

Believe in Spatter!

balmy condor
#

So there has to exist a breakpoint where there’s enough rupture damage to offset

#

And that’s 7 seconds or whatever

static glacier
#

and that's 7s

#

aight thanks

glacial crypt
#

"Hmm I'd like some energy please" then the small add is all like "sure thing boss lady" and suddenly it's dead, my combo points have jumped up from sbs, I've got more energy and my brain thinks "that was sick"

balmy condor
#

Yeh

#

Doesn’t work like that sadly KEKL

But it feels right

spice spire

Like to be fair, if you’re running internal bleeding sbs the rupture instant damage is much higher and you can probably get away with like 4

balmy condor
#

But I haven’t checked the numbers on that cause like

#

What fucking situation are you in where you’re playing internal and sniping

#

You’d be playing caustic

Whispyr in m+ if I have 2 targets with equal prio and it’s 6 targets total and I have scent of blood with 12 stacks and cooldowns rolling but only 1 shiv charge and my kingsbane has 9 seconds remaining, and one of the targets dies and gives me sbs charge back is it worth rupturing for the extra stack of scent and getting an sbs proc followed by a shiv cast on the next gcd to envenom? Envenom has 2 seconds left in this situation btw please respond it’s very important happens to me CONSTANTLY

I didn't realise how often this kingsbane questino gets asked and every time it makes me giggle so much more than it should

spice spire
#

CT single target isn’t so great? Are you kidding me? When was the last time you saw a talent with such a dps increase? CT puts the game on another level, and we will be blessed if we ever see a talent with this much of a raider IO increase for rogues again. Kingsbane breaks records. Deathmark breaks records. Crimson tempest breaks the rules. You can keep your statistics. I prefer the magic.

# balmy condor Top 10 Larry moments

I know u legit just wrote how much it tilts u when stuff is oddly specific, but if you have 2cp 0 energy and you snipe, get 2cp back from sbs but mob dies insta this is surely worth no

U lost 1gcd but wouldn’t have been able to cast anyway in that time

To pad your overall cause my guild is worse than yours

then sure go for it

i don’t care about logs or looking better on details, but its definitely more overall to do it that way

you should prob do it now sure

didnt whispyr run some sims that it was same st

Thx tony!

tropic cedar
#

like its part of the fight

mighty crown
#

was a loss the way i was playing it for sure

tropic cedar
#

just really depends on comp/guild ig

runic hinge
#

I think it really depends on your comp

#

Yeah

mighty crown
#

it’s just a damage balancing equation

#

if boss dmg is less relevant now because of nerfs then just blast full aoe fuck it

drifting cloud
#

when are you guys back to reclear exile?

mighty crown
#

prolly sunday no clue

drifting cloud
#

oh this week already

mighty crown
#

not all bosses

drifting cloud
#

thought you had like a week-two break after the race

mighty crown
#

ct on that boss was annoying because if the spiders or ad management wasn’t perfect sometimes the ct would just not hit the prio targets (worm/spiders) then u spend more finishers on ct

runic hinge
#

Will you stream if you raid Sunday?

mighty crown
#

which is definitely a loss

glacial crypt
#

Post nerf*

mighty crown
#

aoe talent setup is perfectly fine if you overkill boss dmg doesn’t matter, can prob play IC even

#

for more spider dmg

tropic cedar
#

thats prob because most guilds are better off doing it that way to make sure adds are dead, boss's hp was nuked

!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
