arctic socket
#

cinder quartz
winged sun
#

grim jay
#

no

arctic socket
#

Hollow the goat for explaining aoe for raid st

coral ibex
#

yep sounds right

cinder quartz
#

raid aoe is just single target but you have spatter on your main target and fok to build instead of mut

pallid bough
#

He asked m+ no?

#

Or did I misread

#

My fault

#

I just woke up man

#

Leave me alone pepehands

cinder quartz
#

that's also kinda m+ but keep CT up as well and rupture if target will live

winged sun
#

this build for raid

cinder quartz
#

na

winged sun
#

i assume crimson tempest on adds? or on st too

cinder quartz
#

i don't think any boss we take CT

spice spire
#

On st when mod is up

cinder quartz
#

even ovi i dont see it

dull cloak
#

CT is for pad

winged sun
spice spire
#

It’s good on ovi

spice spire
arctic socket
#

@winged sun press ambush, garrote, multi rupture,SnD, Echoing,multi to 5+, to envenom dm shiv kb tea

spice spire
cinder quartz
#

arctic socket
#

Multi to 5+

#

E

spice spire
#

It’s crangled on wh but check in game

arctic socket
#

Also change your build

#

Build is weird

cinder quartz
#

mythic ovi playin this

#

ST but drop VV for CT and the improved FoK thing

arctic socket
#

Yall lucky asf being able to press CT on adds

#

Don’t have big aoe chads and it shows

pallid bough
#

Don’t run CT for that boss

#

It’s troll

spice spire
# winged sun

It’s recommend for ovi iirc

pallid bough
#

After parasite nerf

#

You will get no value

grim jay
arctic socket
#

Even on mythic

pallid bough
#

I mean even on mythic

still steeple
#

guys i have a serious question

pallid bough
#

Those adds die way too fast

spice spire
#

Serious answer

arctic socket
#

Have you not done it recently?

still steeple
#

what does pandemic mean in the context of bleeds

cinder quartz
#

people are running it, idk if that means its better

spice spire
prisma monolithBOT
#

Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs

still steeple
#

ty

arctic socket
#

I’m sure you definitely get value from it, but it’s better to just let caustic carry you and continue to st blast

pallid bough
#

People shouldn’t be running it but it’s pointless

#

I mean the value is minimum

#

Compared to just going straight st

#

And killing before the 2-3rd last egg set

#

The boss*

arctic socket
#

We have 2 fdk and 3 fury warriors

pallid bough
#

With caustic

cinder quartz
#

just let your big chads carry

arctic socket
winged gust
#

do yall think deathstalker or fatebound is better for m+ cuz alot of people are saying different things

cinder quartz
#

and you lay a foundational aoe

pallid bough
#

Okay yeah see that is even worse than mine

#

I had 2 DKs and 1 Warrior

#

And adds still got deleted

#

1 was Unholy too

#

And fury war just go burr

spice spire
#

Even then

pallid bough
#

Frost dk actually does a lot lmao

arctic socket
#

Why don’t you

spice spire
#

Why do you have 2 dks and 3 warriors

arctic socket
#

Why doesn’t your group

pallid bough
#

Why not

arctic socket
#

Have em

spice spire
#

Because there’s only 20 slots for a mythic run

pallid bough
#

Arm go brrrrrr

arctic socket
#

Leaves 8 slots

#

Open

timber meadow
#

with being able to upgrade a 2nd ring for free via crafting/recrafting a single ring kinda feels like rings go up in value for spark crafts

cinder quartz
#

after nerf isnt it kinda just "delete parasites = epic win"?

cobalt sphinx
#

high representation of greater apes in that raid

kindred hinge
#

Alt army. Get a profession use concentration twice a week to craft r3 with r2. You get 50/100k a day

spice spire
#

Idk dude historically melee is minimized to like 7 spots max.
5 being taken by two classes is pretty HOLY

kindred hinge
#

Or boost keys

grim jay
#

or buy tokens

cobalt sphinx

enchanting earns about 30g per concentration, and you get like 300 concentration per day

Ok im sure this question has been asked thousands of time, but how do I sim myself correctly? Im not sure of any of the commands for the channel, sorry

spice spire
#

You’re fine

#

Wdym sim correctly

arctic socket
#

Use top gear to compare items

spice spire
#

Download simulationcraft and use raidbots? Or like sim correctly for m+?

molten crow
#

Sorry I am being unclear, how do I sim myself correctly for m+?

spice spire
#

Dungeon slice

#

You’re good

#

I figured it was some permutation of that

cinder quartz
# fervent dirge hey. how you min max kingsbane . how does it rly work

envenom before hand->dm+pot+skardyns->shiv->KB->tea->spend envenoms and ignore energy pooling completely->shiv when it falls off->tea->envenom as many time as you can->KB massive tick at end. you want to optimize your # of melees during kingsbane's duration since it builds stacks based on poison applications, mainly from melees. If you can get PI, that's the time to get it

fervent dirge
molten crow
#

Thanks boo

arctic socket
#

Dungeon slice is fine to sim with? Thought it was patchwork

spice spire

Anytime bbgirl

There are 600 ways to frame what you want/need

#

DS is fine

static glacier
spice spire
#

It’s the most middle of the road version

static glacier
#

Feels like before then energy waste is inevitable

cinder quartz
#

it doesn't build based off bleeds

#

but you get a ton more energy since you have double bleed ticks

cinder quartz
#

and your mastery buff is on slightly larger KB ticks

arctic socket
#

Thought we just tea during kb for the mastery

#

Tbh

spice spire
#

Yea during shiv

cinder quartz
#

yeah thats why we prefer it there

spice spire
#

It’s just energy

#

This tier

#

Mastery is an after thought

#

Mastery was a s3 thing

tight root
#

!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

spice spire
#

Kb was nerfed

#

You guys are fixating so hard on that

#

It’s tea during shiv for energy

cinder quartz
#

was it like "giga 99 stack KB loves mastery"

spice spire
#

For ST

cinder quartz

We pool so much and lack so much energy now that we prio that > secondaries

I thought we tea during shiv for mastery

We do but the more important part is the energy it gives

Mastery is a very nice bonus

Are we supposed to cast fan of knives on single target when we get clear the witness proc?

#

over mutilate?

winged pumice

guys icyveins and wowhead m+ builds are different which would you go with?

To quote whysper clear the witness can be a single target increase when there is more than one target

When one target and no VV it is up to the reader

I do really well in keys but my st in raids is so bad i am doing something wrong not sure what

do you have the right build

spice spire

Gamers be like

if only one build is viable: muuuuuh diversity fucking game sucks duuuuh

if multiple things are viable: everything is confusing

I can eyeball it and see it’s not quite right

Idk what’s off

Don’t speak or write German

But it looks unconjugated?

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.

Btw post a raid log some people are usually happy to have a look

spice elk
#

hi everyone, do we have a haste cap for m+ and/or raid ?

dawn heath
#

Dont know what fight to post really Queen is such a weird one

#

But i green logged for my item level

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

Whispyr had a 99 log but it was 94 for ilvl. Like ilvl parse is fake

kindred hinge
#

Your gear doesnt matter when for example parse on ovinax for us is beavily dependent on raid comp rather than skill. Its id one of the most extreme exemple but it fit

grim jay
#

but ye

arctic socket
#

Go gold parse

#

In normal

#

Be a man

cobalt sphinx
#

i got a 99 and i used shiv after kingsbane every time

runic hinge
#

I mean the sample size is smaller for ilvl

cobalt sphinx
#

because i never play with 2 shivs

kindred hinge
#

I got a 99 and I roll my head on the keyboard and make a lot of mistakes.

Parse doesntatter log is good to learn from your mistakes

cinder quartz
#

record yourself thumbsupcat

When you’re top 1% for assa rogues but then since your ilvl parse is only against 250 other rogues it’s gonna be different

What would an opening rotation look like for AoE in Mythics?

Do you just go usual opener and then after Deathmark start: FoK, CT -> FoK, Envenom?

solar orbit
#

Granted I haven't done high keys where the trash will live for a lot longer

#

but yes, you usually just spam envenom once you put caustic on main target

What is considered good / exceptional logs/ players in wow by your experience?

Hey I wondered if I should craft a second 636 dagger ? My offhand is 6/6 hero track. I’ve not seen anyone with two crafted weapons so I wondered if there is a reason

Offhand is the lest important item

solar orbit

#

Ah ok ty, I’ve just started doing 9’s/10’s so got my main hand up to 636, should I then upgrade trinkets ?

#

Not Australia….

dawn heath
#

ok

solar orbit
cinder quartz
cinder quartz
#

like orihalco said, you can vanish to get a new imp garrote

solar orbit
#

a good rule is using garrote when you have 6 seconds left for pandemic efects

#

its usually at that time where you vanish to refresh the garrote

dawn heath
#

i just tried to copy the opener i saw someone else make, why do we want to use envenom once before going into our cds?

cinder quartz
#

so you can have it active while your CDs are ticking

#

you want the buff to have better poison applications while you're locked into casting your CDs

cinder quartz
#

i'd say it doesn't super duper matter but its better

woven shore
#

Your rotation should be :

Ambush, garrot, ER, rapture, sad, dm, shiv tea+ trinkets etc, Kingsbane
Muti envenom
Get 7 cp
Envenom to reset mark
If Shiv ends use it again
And vanish to reapply garrot if its at 4seconds

#

Thats atleast how i do it

solar orbit
#

Would it be better to spam garrote during imp garrote window purely for the CP?

#

I should probably check how much dmg is muti

solar orbit
#

i guess that's a no lol

woven shore

If you want to save gold by pickpocketing use wax.

If you want to spend gold to get your consumable instantly, use whetstone.

That’s the sim

Idk that heal is so fake kekdog

rotund oak

good enough to not die Surebud

#

plus ive got ponytails

rn

coral ibex
#

we are atrophic bot in raid

slate crown
#

We had our time in the sun in Df s3 so we can’t have nice things again for a while

vestal wren
#

rogue could very well be just one spec

royal lantern
#

ye

#

all 3 are equaly mid

vestal wren
#

because we rarely have situations where rogue has one good spec

#

and 2 bad ones

#

like legion sure

#

bfa too

#

but ever since then

#

it was either all good or all shit

rotund oak
#

legion wasnt that the case though was it

#

cant remember it that way

vestal wren
#

legion yand bfa

#

you otp'd sin

#

no reason to ever switch off

rotund oak
#

outlaw was good on atbt,idk man

vestal wren
#

thats shadowlands

#

shadowlands was more like all good

#

e.g. s1

#

all 3 sucked

rotund oak
#

antorus the burning throne

vestal wren
#

otulaw the least

rotund oak
#

was legion

vestal wren
#

sin was massively buffed mid s1

#

oh my bad i forgot

rotund oak
vestal wren
#

antorus was intially not a rogue tier

#

then sin had a bug

hallow pelican
#

I cant remember a time where Sin was consistently top 3

vestal wren
#

that made you spam fok and nothing else

rotund oak
#

i literally played all 3 specs on legion man 😛

#

3 rogues

vestal wren
#

that bug fas fixed and sin got a buff

rotund oak
#

one for each spec

vestal wren
#

and it was a sin tier ever after

#

so atbt was sin tier 100%

#

tomb was sub tier with still 1/3 of the playerbase on sin

#

only exception in the 2 xpacs

rotund oak
#

outlaw did as much dmg as sin in atbt idk

vestal wren
#

unless you think of zhul as its own tiuer

hallow pelican
#

that was sub

vestal wren
#

before the buffs to sin

#

we had a more equal spread

hallow pelican
#

it was also 3 xpacs ago

vestal wren
#

but more because of carry over power

#

legion had essentially the option

rotund oak
#

sin was buffed like,when we were on aggramar idk

vestal wren
#

to go from mythic to mythic

rotund oak
#

but we did play more sin afterwards for sure

vestal wren
#

because of titanforging

#

you got upgrades only in mythic

rotund oak
#

yup

vestal wren
#

and your biggest gains ended up in tier sets

#

so you needed a good tier set to be good

#

sub tier was horrible

#

so it was initially still played because of carry over power

#

but once tier was more common for other classes

#

you sucessively had people switch away

#

the buff due to the bug was the final nail in the coffin

#

and it turned into a sin tier

#

i know because we did tell the balance team back then to buff all specs to keep the relative balance active

#

which they obviousely didn't

frozen iris
#

I am confused on the question mark? Is it supposed to be echoing reprimande?

rotund oak
#

we press er after snd

#

into envenom=>dm=>shiv...

hallow pelican
#

its telling you what to do .. Darkest Night Proc? then build to 7 and envenom

frozen iris
#

How can you build to 7 combo points besides landing on a charged point? Is that what its saying?

rotund oak
#

yeah pretty much

#

if u dont land on a charged cp u go max

royal lantern
rotund oak
#

thats the only way to proc DN

royal lantern
#

same with covenants

frozen iris
#

Okay. Thats what i figured it was saying but thanks for the clarification

royal lantern
#

all covenants where equal at SL launch, cus they all sucked

vestal wren
#

i mean its a controversial take

royal lantern
#

perfect balance achieved

vestal wren
#

but sin wasn't that bad in sl/df

#

it was always good in st, even if it wasn't the #1 played

royal lantern
#

i mean, SL launch it was legit atricous

#

after that it was ok

vestal wren
#

usually ahead of sub

#

in SL s1 it was the best after buffs

#

s2 all 3 ended up good

#

s3 sin was theoretically bis

frozen iris
#

Ive been sucking ass this tier. Didnt make it past trial phases for mythic

vestal wren
#

but nobody palyed it

#

because tier was shit

hallow pelican
#

SL was fucking horsehsit all the way through. The covenants were shit, torghast was fucked, legendaries sucked...

vestal wren
#

or well gameplay with tier

hallow pelican
#

there was a single good aspect of SL

vestal wren
#

but bis was just ... better on 1 or 2 bosses

#

it wasn't rly diffrent to sub overall

stop trying to make ER and Bonespike relevant ... theyre shit talents and no one is gonna convince me otherwise. As a capstone, ER is easily one of the worst of any class tree

how did they miss the mark by like 40% on shadow

its a ST "buff" right?

waxen oyster

I mean

#

that spatter nerf is so minor

split veldt
#

someone tell me how to feel about the patch notes

waxen oyster
#

a buff to poison dam is a spatter buff technically

hallow pelican
#

its technically a fix not a buff

coral ibex
#

functionally its a buff

waxen oyster
coral ibex
#

because we will do more damage as a result

hallow pelican
waxen oyster
#

in all but super high target counts

ashen rover
#

time to get set!!!! ( i cant loot anything for the life of me 2 out of my 3 set pieces are from catalyst)

coral ibex
#

almost definitely

novel parcel
#

A slight splatter nerf for more single target is so so worth it imo with how mid our St is compared to a lot of other people LOL

waxen oyster
#

I mean….is it even a net spatter nerf

slim pebble
#

@balmy condor

coral ibex
#

envenom/kingsbane/deathstalker poison effects getting buffed by 10% outweighs a 12.5% spatter nerf

waxen oyster
#

if env and kb are doing 10% more

indigo mulch
#

I think its perfectly fine that they removed some spatter damage. I couldn't ask for better changes. I wish they would give more damage to rupture but ah well

coral ibex
#

its more ST dam and "less" splash

hallow pelican
#

i think it shows that theyre aware that our ST has been shit because of a bug, so maybe we shouldn't be nerfed when its "fixed"

coral ibex
#

but you splash more off the ST

winged basin
#

I am already topping the meters in my guild, so excited to do it still, but higher 😂😂

indigo mulch
#

We needed more ST damage badly.

a slight revert

#

of their week 1 nerfs

polar timber
#

so funny man enhance doing like 1.5 mil on some bosses and they are scared to over buff rogue

indigo mulch
#

I think the buff is decent though D:

#

if its like 10% dmg to envenom and kb then its a pretty good change if you ask me.

#

;o

polar timber
#

im gonna keep rioting till theres one rogue spec in top 5 dont care tbh

indigo mulch
#

I'm not sure what hero talents that it should affect though?

waxen oyster
#

I mean

#

isnt all plague damage poison

royal lantern
#

it is

#

plague is nature+shadow

#

and for rogue you can assume that nature dmg = poison

#

most of the time

#

not always

spice surge
#

If we assume that theyre correct with saying that it should work on plague damage from deathstalker (aka appropriate hero talents) and use the top log of M sikran as an example:
22% envenom
2.6% corrupt the blood
10.4% kingsbane
5.7% hunt them down
3.3% deathstalkers mark
1% clear the witnesses
Thats a total of 45% of the rogues damage that now gets buffed by 10% where it didnt before

coral ibex
#

thats pretty good

spice surge
#

Theoretically it should apply to vicious venoms as well, but he didnt have it talented

coral ibex
#

4.5% overall buff

#

no

polar timber
#

LOL

sterile crest

It’s not going to be a nerf

The ST buff will mostly offset spatter nerf and just give you more dmg in general

Its probably a small nerf in aoe, but mostly neutral

Tier Set/Caustic Tuning

THIS IS A BUFF BY ALL METRICS
Be aware that we don't have sims for this yet and we don't have hard numbers for what "proc chance increase" means, so I'm going to speculate a bit with some napkin math. Don't shoot me

  • The tier changes are actually quite large here cause our 4 piece was like 50% uptime, and the 2 piece working on envenom/kingsbane is large in single target as well. I estimate that the total tier fix is probably looking like easily a 4% increase in single target, and close to 3% in aoe with the impact of the 4pc factored. There is a lot of math with it scaling/ramping faster/better/worse depending on pull and stuff so the 4pc here is a bit all over the place to estimate. Like the dev note said, the changed are weighted towards single target mainly, and that remains true

  • The caustic nerf is entirely expected given how strong it is, and this is very variable based on your key but will end up being around a 1.5% loss

  • Follow the blood change does nothing

I have a 10 mists with 55% uptime on 4pc, if that goes to like 85-90% uptime, the 4 piece alone offsets the caustic nerf, without even considering the envenom buff, or the kingsbane buff, or the rest of it
