who tf uses archon

its on the log website

#

lmao

static glacier
#

id say sim your char for both builds

grim jay
#

oh right

static glacier
#

play w/e sims notably better, if both are similar pick what is comfortable for you

wise gull
#

I mean I did it last week so it's possible that they fixed it but

tulip tiger
#

Hey guys, can you macro thistle tea or no?

grim jay
wise gull
#

Check later and see

static glacier
#

just send a charge during shiv + kb when you're 200 or lower energy

wise gull
#

Do we still use a tea during DM?

#

nah right?

static glacier
#

ye

#

we doi

royal lantern
#

you use tea with shiv

#

not with DM

#

not with KB

#

with Shiv

static glacier
#

on pull you do cus 3 charges, after that you can quite easily be under 200 energy under dm shiv and kb

static glacier
royal lantern
#

only on pull its with the shiv that is used after DM, cus you have 3 charges to get the CD running

static glacier
#

and yes, we deffo do end up doing it during dm since thats when shiv is up

royal lantern
#

that has nothing to do with DM itself peeposhrug

static glacier
#

shiv doesn't exist in a vacuum

#

the rule could quite easily be you only tea during kb

#

and it would work

#

it just wouldn't account as well for builds that run 1 shiv charge

gritty laurel
#

i feel like tying it to shiv mentally helps to adjust to any changes to the spec down the line, but then again those changes could theoretically decouple it from shiv so what do i know

royal lantern
#

the best change would be deleting tea

static glacier
#

tying it to shiv is the best way to define its usage i agree

royal lantern
#

shit ass ability

lusty mountain
#

quick question, if affix desyncs deathmark + skardyn should we wait for deathmark to use skardyns always?

royal lantern
#

classic bait in 2024 omegalul

static glacier
#

depends on route / what ur fighting / what you will pull

lusty mountain
#

hmm

static glacier
#

and where the bottleneck for ur key completion is

lusty mountain
#

understandable

#

okay

#

many thanks

static glacier
#

so long as holding for skardyns wont lose you a dm use its safe to hold

wise gull
#

And other q is for single shiv builds do we time it for the end of kb? that's what I've been doing

grim jay
#

just use dm if you would usually use DM

#

done

wise gull
#

only been playing assa in m+ so haven't put as much research as I normally would

royal lantern
wise gull
#

gotcha tyty

#

will probably only be playing assa on kyveza but who knows

gritty laurel
#

sometimes if i know i can squeeze in an extra KB before a boss, i'll shiv first to get the amp on the initial hit on a pack that won't survive the whole KB duration, but that's probably degen thinking

Is it a bug that we don't get Darkest night if a mob dispawn instead of gettink killed ? (Tirna's trees or affix if not killed )

royal lantern
#

its technically how its "supposed" to work

#

cus the marked enemy needs to die

#

and you dont kill them

idk the hardest part of assassination is resisting the urge to slam my face into my keyboard instead of letting envenom duration tick down

copper panther
#

Surely people aren’t complaining about sin being hard I could understand sub maybe

grim jay
copper panther
#

Big crits is def valid

grim jay
#

and sin is the hardest of the 3 in m+

#

to minmax

rotund oak
royal lantern

#

m+ isn't even hard, just gar+gar, rup+rup, mut, CT then decide if you have enough time before boss to mash cooldowns

What’s ur point bub

gritty laurel
#

you don't count, you're a professional

glacial crypt
tacit charm
#

oh me play sin, me do same opener every fight, me have no cdr so we dont have to think about when every cooldown is coming up at potentially random times while outlaw has multiple of those while having to maintain RTB and deciding when to reroll when to not

proper hare
#

btw is the echoing eprimand of the gcd whenever next patch comes

I think elementalist enhancement is harder

spice spire

Ret is hardest spec

royal lantern
copper panther
#

Prove me wrong

spice spire
royal lantern
#

the rets in random groups are always dead

#

clearly they must concentrate really hard on their gameplay

how rets even die is beyond me

and thats why they die all the time

Are we really arguing that ass is harder than outlaw or is this just a big circle rage bait

royal lantern
#

cus like

copper panther
#

Outlaw definitely has merit to its difficulty and so does sin (in keys) but they play very differently and aren’t comparable at all the entire argument is stupid

royal lantern
#

whats the poin

copper panther
#

Why are you linking mid asf overall as if it means anything

royal belfry
#

Hi. can someone tell me what is top 3 races for rogue for pve / pvp ?

!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.

Is the wax bug that you need to reequip weapons still in the game?

Oh thats nice then might start farming them again then hahaha

not rly an assa key that much

No shot you mentioned that dead spec

I mean

#

It works

spice spire
#

Sub been good for too long in keys

arctic socket
#

I would rather play sub over outlaw

grim jay
#

I mean its still good dmg wise

#

ngl

spice spire
#

I simply wouldn’t change specs

grim jay
#

but

#

why would you

arctic socket

What if I’m being told to change specs

ye

novel thunder
grim jay
#

the talents seem to be different

novel thunder
#

Yeah theyre are a few

grim jay
#

if you really dont have VV

#

thats already a solid increase

novel thunder
#

im usually pull off archon, but is VV > sanquine?

#

VV 2x

grim jay
#

there are quite some talents that are interchangeable

#

and depend on your setup

#

tho the diff between a 70 and a 99 is none of those

novel thunder
#

not quite sure then

#

career 95+ but this season really struggling, but ill try these talent changes out

#

what talent setup do you guys recommend for pure single

oblique smelt
#

Seen a lot of people run crafted dagger with ascendance + armour piece with double effect, but guide suggests double crit lining. Is it just because it's early season and people are crafting dagger because having a good mainhand is stronger?

grim jay
#

mine is kinda weird to play with

#

sec

arctic socket
#

If you’re pushing raid use ascendance mh with doubling effect, if you mainly focused on mythic+ use dreadlining, if you don’t care pick either

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

arctic socket
#

And being able to guarantee a 636 mh is really strong yes

#

You want your main hand to be the highest you can get it

grim jay
novel thunder
#

thx ill sim/target dummy some of these changes

#

appreciate it

oblique smelt
#

I'm super casual gamer andy this expansion, so just doing heroic raiding and doing keys with friends around 10 level. So just double crit lining i guess. I have hero dagger. And surely i get myth track dagger next week Copege

arctic socket
#

Craft a dagger at 636 if you can afford it

#

Anyways

#

The difference using either isn’t really noticeable

Hey guys, trying to understand assassin as a whole. when we dont stealth into a pack and have easu cleave. how many targets should we be trying to maintain rupture on at all times?

grim jay

!rupture

grim jay
#

all of that is in the

!guide

quiet oar
static glacier
frail rune
#

ty ty, im mid Whisp vid and have wowhead and stuff open, just didnt want to lose my mojo and go head hunting. ty ty

static glacier
#

7s is the time you're looking at for it being worth applying a rupture

grim jay
#

mojo is really important

#

I respect that

quiet oar
#

because 5* 4 ist 20

frail rune
#

i was dead scared of trying to micro manage stealth, so seeing theres a whole section on how to do damage and your burst if the tank chain pulls iis great

grim jay
#

!restealth

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.
grim jay
#

its a topic thats reoccuring

static glacier
winged sun
#

guys

#

why are ppl telling me to play double ambush

#

double vanish*

static glacier
#

its 2 points

#

bruh

winged sun
#

to never ambush

frail rune
#

awesome, thats one thing i find with a lot of these discord channels, (even other classes), theres always 1 or 2 silly questions everyone ALWAYS asks

static glacier
#

ye so up to 5

quiet oar
grim jay
#

its just straight up worse

#

barely any benefit

#

but mr z does it

static glacier
#

up to 5 or more if you need more for energy I guess

grim jay
#

so people still think its good

winged sun
#

in sims

#

whats the difference

#

in %

grim jay
#

idk like 4%? was it

static glacier
#

idk where in m+ it's worth to manually rupture a lot if its not like a +12

winged sun
#

4%

#

no way

static glacier
#

feels like everytrhing in 10/11s dies fast

grim jay
#

well subter is dead

#

the healing talent is dead

#

thats 4 points

#

for 1-2 additional casts

#

in a whole dungeon

harsh cliff
#

did they fix the bug where we can't consume DSM while DN is up?

frail rune
static glacier
#

if people can justify taking double ambush it's 100% a defensive / utility thing

#

not for damage

static glacier
#

a caustic'd env on your maint arget / one mark closer to next darkest night

#

and considering we're drowning in energy in aoe, rupture sniping isn't super worth unless you're going to have 1 target up forever and there's just 1-2 dying targets

#

and those targets would live for 7s of the rupture

atomic relic
#

which trinket is better
Dead eye spyglass or empowering crystal of anub?

static glacier
#

tl;dr you need to be going into conditions where you will be energy starved (ST)

grim jay
#

but sim to be sure

arctic socket
#

Both are good but yeah probably Crystal

atomic relic
#

i did sim it sim said empowering but on websites says spyglass is bis

static glacier
#

spyglass is cool on pure st, otherwise crystal

grim jay
#

what websites

atomic relic
#

wowhead

static glacier
#

the way spyglass works is it applies a debuff to ur target

#

when you hit it you stack a crit buff

#

issue is if ur target dies / you swap target

frail rune
static glacier
#

aka spyglass is great for st, but aoe prefs crystal

grim jay
# atomic relic wowhead

wowhead has a trinket section that explains stuff. for m+ crystal currently seems to sim highest

atomic relic
grim jay
#

and on st all 3 are withing 0.1%

atomic relic
static glacier
#

if you had to start a pull without stealth

grim jay
#

and whispyr said sims overvalue 2nd vanish

winged sun
#

ye i agree with whispyr even tho im clueless on assa yet

#

feel like 2nd vanish is useless

#

more of a feel good build

strange python
grim jay
#

ye definitely, but the actual numbers just arent there

static glacier
#

it's not useless, it's just not optimal for dps

strange python
#

also our ST sucks in keys and 2x vanish makes it worse

keen spruce
#

hi @winged sun

coral ibex
#

maybe you want double vanish because your specific group wants the extra iron wire or something

keen spruce
#

what are u doin in assas

coral ibex
#

that's why zerocool runs it

static glacier
#

if for w/e reason you NEED to vanish a boss mechanic on some omega high key or it's 100% death I can see an argument

grim jay
frail rune
static glacier
#

Take double vanish so you don’t have to fuss about restealth

Question about rotation/priority. I've been using Shiv for the increased nature damge for 8 seconds after nkingsbane. The question is, should I be holding both charges for each Kingsbane cast, or using it with envenoms?

between vanish and ct being some juiced spell

Your spells have a chance to bring the candle to life, summoning a waxen ally to light up your enemies.

Apparently the wax it summons boost DPS for melee as well

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.

I mean also, the problem is sometimes Procs aren’t right if you do a cast sequence and for some reason you don’t generate enough combo points it will be a wasted wnvenom

yeah xD

good thinking

junior isle

Like if you don’t get at least 5 combo points to proc a death stalker mark it’s a dps loss

ye but previous convo unless i mistook it, contextually seemed to suggest it was an alternative to sudden death build or a less known build

fleet coral
#

here is the strong cleave but idk

normal mist
solar orbit
#

You build the CP and only cast it when the buff is about to expire

civic tide
#

I try to, but cant seem to make it work >.<

solar orbit
#

that's the primary way of running out of energy

#

if you run out of energy, then wait for your energy to pool, around 150

#

With full CP

#

Once you're at 150, you send envenom and repeat the process of building CP and casting at the very end of the buff

oak tangle
#

tips for pooling, always generate, then hold

normal mist
#

no need to full CP

civic tide
#

like, i know my dmg breakdown is not supposed to look like this, but my brain cant seem to comprehend what to do different

"The Bleed build is focused on spreading strong bleeds and leveraging Sudden Demise. Given its ease of play, simple goals, and shorter required ramp time, it is the primary recommendation for Mythic+ players doing lower-end content."

#

I really like bleed up to 9 though

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.

oak tangle
#

the times when you get bonus damage from using it, is the end of a pull anyway

grim jay
#

dont they have that aoe tod anymore?

oak tangle
#

nah

grim jay
#

also ive seen way less WWs than Brew

#

tbh

oak tangle
#

all it is a like a 15 or 20% buff for a few seconds

#

so you no longer have to snipe the end of a boss's hp or something

#

but yeah aoe part was removed

#

but that also means with the affix to chop, you get that buff with the cdr in a pull

#

so that could be better than worse imo

Hey guys, what embelishments do i need on my wrist and waist?

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

In the situation where you're in a high level key and your garrotes and rupture are going to fall off all targets and a bunch of enemies are around half health still, would I only reapply rupture and garrote to my main target and keep working caustic spatter (If vanish was on cd)

Hi! On a lot of packs, more often than not, Crimson Tempest dot does way more damage than caustic spatter and I can't figure out why, I keep refreshing cs when it's about to expire, any ideas?

kindred hinge

Depends really on the time the pack will take to die and energy level

#

Rupture at 4 cp on multiple target can be worth it if energy starved

coral ibex

scent of blood is big stonks too

dont forget it

Yeah but if you spend time to spread and the pack is dying not really worth. Need to assess on the moment
