bowling content time my brain hurts

subtle tundra
#

woof woof

#

MMMM MEOW

balmy condor
#

I don’t stick my release, miss left, and brick a 7

I’m so cooked man, at this rate I’m gonna be throwing it directly into the gutter, rapidly losing brain matter looking at desperate attempts to parse bar graphs

balmy condor
#

correct

cobalt shuttle
#

so this guy comes and says im smoking crack because im not satisfied with the buffs and the other dummy says i have half a brain xD my point is why nerf something even if its small if we arent as good as the other classes

spice surge
#

They didnt nerf it

serene solar
#

Pin says 4% to ST and 3% to aoe. Caustic is a 1.5% loss. Meaning 1.5%~ gain to aoe and st has buff. HOW is this nerfing them in RAID?

flint tusk
#

it's not a nerf

#

christ

subtle tundra
jovial idol
#

It's a net buff, mostly for ST

balmy condor
#

just out of curiosity

#

I've never tried

grizzled fulcrum
#

Dude one skill got nerfed but ape in general got buffed wtf

midnight atlas
#

bros. we got tiny little nerf to spatter and a big buff for single target which results in big buff to aoe.
they just nerfed spatter a bit to keep it in check

serene solar
cobalt shuttle
cobalt sphinx
#

was aoe actually buffed

#

do the numbers support that

subtle tundra
flint tusk
#

To people with half their brain disengaged?
Yes

cobalt shuttle
#

i was asking in a polite matter and then this to dumasses started being smart xD

balmy condor
#

if you get a pass to be dense I get a pass to be upset about it

#

that's the transaction

midnight atlas
#

people dont understand damage profile of assa, they think spatter does dmg by itself.

jovial idol
cobalt shuttle
#

when did i threw a tantrum? D:

bronze pike
#

and you wont get rude responses

vocal minnow
#

Autism is strong in this channel

cobalt shuttle
#

i didnt start this xD read above

bronze pike
#

but ya anywho

#

that kobold cum chapter

balmy condor
#

or

subtle tundra
#

also caustic still is very very strong and i dont agree with that

#

i was expecting to go to 35%

bronze pike
#

caustic is probably gonna get hit again

serene solar
#

Alright another crazy idea would be to use our reading skills to not only read and understand the pinned message. But also understand he said they don’t have sims/numbers and he tried to do napkin math to give answers to the people who inevitably come in and ask 50 times a minute what the numbers are

oak eagle
#

you change a single talent to go aoe in raid.....

balmy condor
#

so like

#

don't pretend you showed up all innocent looking for info

normal mist
#

I hate buffs and nerfs, people turn off their brain for a few hours and just zugzug the channel

subtle tundra
#

if assa got 20% dps buff you'd go 6x assa in raid XD

oak eagle
balmy condor
#

we already did earlier

normal mist
#

it was slowmode

oak eagle
#

no shot

balmy condor
#

had a 2 min slowmode

oak eagle
#

OMG

#

glad I was at work when this happened

bronze pike
#

i was heading to work when it happened

#

people legit get small headed when nerfs and buffs happen

cobalt shuttle
subtle tundra
#

i was in the bed falling asleep !

sharp viper
#

@balmy condordo you ever wish you'd had chosen a different spec to be TC for?

bronze pike
#

still dont understand how outlaw saw a raw buff and got mad

normal mist
#

what a great question

oak eagle
bronze pike
#

like actually

subtle tundra
flint tusk

and its a nerf for the future

balmy condor

#

Interesting morning reading 😛

jovial idol
#

The caustic spatter nerf is to compensate for the other buffs

cobalt sphinx
subtle tundra
#

imo spatter should go to 25% to make it a healthier playstyle

jovial idol
#

Otherwise ti would be too strong

subtle tundra
#

but im just based like that

bronze pike
#

and people magically agree cause said person is high io BearSmile

balmy condor
#

true

#

but brave

spice surge
#

Things that spatter do 10% more damage but spatter spreads 10% less of it, making it overall roughly the same

flint tusk
#

#Makebleedsgreatagain

bronze pike
oak eagle
bronze pike
#

they werent even focused on that

normal mist
bronze pike
#

they were mad that sin got buffs when it had questionable st in raid and piss poor tierset like they had

balmy condor
#

I was fully ready for 35%

bronze pike
oak eagle
#

tbh i was ready to read it at 30%

normal mist
#

so same as assa

subtle tundra
bronze pike
#

ye

rain wraith
#

Whats the best sim settings for raid and m+? Patchwerk 5 min for raid and Patchwerk x5 for 3 min for m+?

spice surge
#

Surely they remembered to put VV on the tier set right whispyr? clueless

balmy condor
subtle tundra
#

💔

balmy condor
#

they have a habit of forgetting VV on stuff

balmy condor
oak eagle
#

tbh i forget VV is even a thing

subtle tundra
#

maybe not? maybe intentional to keep it in line with other talents power wise

#

probably false

balmy condor
#

I mean it's one of the weaker talents we have

flint tusk
#

Yeh i imagine if that was the case they'd tune the % damage output or energy cost

balmy condor
#

it's legit only single target, and it barely can keep up with that

midnight atlas
#

caustic is dead boys, this is the new spec we playing.

serene solar
#

Do we think these buffs push assa up as the rogue raid spec?

subtle tundra
sharp viper
#

VV gets dropped so fast if there is any kind of aoe requirement

midnight atlas
#

new fan of knives build, we turn into sub with shuriken + bp

subtle tundra
#

ugh

oak eagle
#

imagine if VV did what it did, but didnt make mutilate cost more energy

subtle tundra
#

im thinking about it

crystal sierra
#

For AoE in high keys, how important is it to rupture 5+ targets before you begin your envenom splatter aoe? I find that I often lose my main target, and suuurely I shouldnt spread over and over via main target?

balmy condor
oak eagle
#

shit would be gas

flint tusk
subtle tundra
oak eagle
#

whispyr

#

is it worth to run Caustic on Rashanan

balmy condor
oak eagle
#

or does it not cleave the adds

balmy condor
#

where is your guild putting the adds

jovial idol
#

I think Outlaw is ahead in raid, esp with the new buffs

subtle tundra
midnight atlas
oak eagle
#

on pull they put them to the right of boss, when he moves to the back they go to the front

subtle tundra
#

its literally worse log to play caustic

#

so you dont

#

you go IB

balmy condor
#

if they go directly under the boss you play caustic

#

but doesn't sound like it

#

so play IB

jovial idol
#

Rasha nan adds dont show in logs

subtle tundra
#

exactly

balmy condor
#

man who gives a shit about the fucking logs

oak eagle
#

i just wanna see big number on details man

midnight atlas
oak eagle
#

when we were pulling ovinax

oak eagle
#

i actually saw myself on the meters for once

balmy condor
#

I'm 3rd in my raid for parasite damage

flint tusk
balmy condor
#

adds need to die

subtle tundra
#

with these buffs im getting over 1mil dps

worthy root
#

Do we know already by how much assa was buffed? Or Blizzard hasnt released the numbers yet?

sharp viper
balmy condor
#

parsing logs is for 3 months from now when everything is on farm and overgeared

rain wraith
#

gotta chase those logs week 1 so u look good while the others have good gear

I wonder how many times you guys have to say “Pins” in an expansion.

i was just trying to help my guild kill

balmy condor

I mean I’m sure new info would result in an edit to the pins or a new post in the pins

oak eagle
balmy condor

serene solar
#

Honestly I think the second you click into one of the 3 spec channels you should get an unskippable 5 second ad of a video show you how to click the pinned messages

balmy condor
#

I'm keeping up fairly well with my fury war

#

stacking the adds under the boss

sharp viper
#

now that is a proper fury name

balmy condor
#

but the adds gotta be like

#

REALLY up in the boss

midnight atlas
balmy condor
#

or caustic won't reach

oak eagle
#

they gotta be up the bosses ass, eh?

balmy condor
#

I'm pretty sure with perfect add placement I stomp the warrior

sharp viper
balmy condor
#

it's a very noticeable difference when they're in range for me vs when they're not

rain wraith
#

did they fix bubbling wax?

subtle tundra
#

anyone knows if assa is any decent for ansurek mythic?

spice surge
balmy condor
#

varas you have a funny way of making me want to fucking choke you through my monitor whenever you type

subtle tundra
midnight atlas
#

its not good at all

subtle tundra
#

my guild is on court and i dont play sub so im benched

#

so i wanna know if it will be the same on ansurek

oak eagle
#

sub is yucky

balmy condor
#

assa is legit fine on all the bosses

subtle tundra
#

ok bud

serene solar
#

No shot you’re benched because you don’t play sub 😂 what is this guild

midnight atlas
#

you can legit farm a buff that increases dmg done inside nerubar palace now, you can play any spec

subtle tundra
#

so ofc ill get benched

#

fym

balmy condor
balmy condor
#

exile did pulls as assa and it was fine

midnight atlas
subtle tundra
#

except exile i didnt see anyone consider assa on ansurek

balmy condor
#

he played it on court too

oak eagle
#

didnt Kush do some pulls as Sin too?

subtle tundra
#

on sub

oak eagle
#

or was he a full sub 1trick the entire race

balmy condor
#

aight

sharp viper
balmy condor
#

actual brick wall being talked to

subtle tundra
#

?!?

#

yea we bench the worse specs

#

ofc we do

oak eagle
#

then if you want to raid court

#

play sub

astral plover
#

Change class varas.

spice surge
#

Exile played assa because their strat involved him doing webs at times where he wanted to pop his cds as sub

subtle tundra
#

i was talking about ansurek

oak eagle
#

same thing

#

if you wanna prog queen

#

play sub

subtle tundra
#

whatever

oak eagle
#

not that hard to press your talent page, and change specs

midnight atlas
#

question is not "is it viable for ansurek". question is "will my guild master allow me to play assa on ansurek"

subtle tundra
#

i asked a question

astral plover
#

Varas i think ret pala is.more you

subtle tundra
#

idk

#

do you guys really think i havent considered sub

#

i dont even have transmitter

balmy condor
#

I mean it legit sounds like your guild just looks up whatever the top 3 RWF guilds played, compares details meters, and goes "oh assa did less so sub or bench"

#

in which case

#

what does anything I'm going to say

#

matter for shit

subtle tundra
#

they dont loook at top 3 guilds only

#

they look at everyone ahead

#

of us

balmy condor
#

yeah

astral plover
#

I didnt know u only could play sub with transmitter

balmy condor
#

and what do you think everyone ahead of you

#

also does

midnight atlas
#

sub should be benched until 11.0.5, i really want to see how it works with 1.5min cds, but until then im not playing that cooldown nightmare crap

sharp viper
subtle tundra
#

whatever

balmy condor
#

it's actually self fulfilling

subtle tundra
#

im gonna sound condescending
but you guys clearly havent fucking pushed world ranks

brisk forge
#

Lol

oak eagle
#

no most of us havent lmao

#

whats the point

subtle tundra
#

then dont fucking lecture me

oak eagle
#

of you asking here, if you already know the answer

balmy condor
#

"kush played sub" says the top 10 guilds and go play sub

#

then you show up and go "everyone plays sub"

brisk forge
#

Clearly not you that is for sure

midnight atlas
oak eagle
#

were gonna go on timeout, arent we.

subtle tundra
#

i asked how assa is on queen ansurek and now all the top players are judging a guild trying to improve

balmy condor
#

no, varas is just being dumb

subtle tundra
#

amongs the things my guild can do to get better higher rankings rn is playing optimal comp

balmy condor
#

he's asking a class discord for advice on a prog boss that legit no one will see before him

serene solar
#

At a time where the top rogue dps is so close between specs while also being meh in general. I just couldn’t imagine sitting someone over it. Maybe if it was like massive dps loss but idk man

subtle tundra
#

nothing else

sharp viper
midnight atlas
#

good riddance to dust

oak eagle
subtle tundra
balmy condor
#

yeah, they do

#

they all played sub

#

cause RWF all played sub

midnight atlas
#

i havent even killed ansurek HC, but trust me bro, assa is dead for mythic ansurek Surebud

#

i read logs

subtle tundra
#

only time i didnt play assa for an endboss was raszageth

normal mist
#

Yo i just made a great meme.
"FOTM jumping into class discords after buffs"

The only useful contribution in the last 10 minutes came from Eleem, who actually explained why exile played sin instead of sub on court.

balmy condor

breakdown looks totally fine

midnight atlas
serene solar
#

If you feel like you struggled in ST welcome to assa currently in keys

cerulean compass
#

Hmmm that's maybe why then, cause I was like, I feels like my AOE is ok but my ST get me so low in overall

midnight atlas
#

if you can keep uptime ST is good, but mostly you can't.

#

we're getting ST buff soon, wont be much, but its something

sharp viper
oak eagle
#

yo hows this breakdown tho

#

dope or dope, am i rite

balmy condor

isn't that basically the same thing

he kinda hates me tbh

#

(my buddy was tanking)

balmy condor
#

idk, rupture and garrote can swap that's fine

#

they're fairly similar

cerulean compass
#

And then he quits

midnight atlas

you can do 2 mil dps without stealth just fok + 5 ruptures fok + ct and a bit of spatter

TLDR - Dont be angy' - Fan of Knives on how many targets? Mutilate to keep Spatter. Could somebody tell me an honest take about assa? How is it on m+ and on raid? Thanks a lot ❤️

because carnage has more duration with subterfuge is how i read it right?

serios question amidst all the shittalk.
when's the perfect moment to get PI? dm or kb ?

balmy condor

Dm

bronze pike

Ended up being a 4.5% buff

#

For outlaw

#

Something something muh auto attack nerfed something no acro something

balmy condor
# bronze pike Ended up being a 4.5% buff

Yeah but they also got nerfed to get the buff and the nerf was a buff cause the tier was buffed but the spec was nerfed so now actually we’re mad that the spec got nerfed when the tier got buffed because the spec got buffed now so why did the spec get nerfed and im mad about that

wise whale

So it's a nerf ? monkahmm

I am a bigger loser than most.I legit chase numbers hard AF in this game. So I play all 3 specs and save gear for all 3. I want them all to succeed and be fun in their own ways.

bronze pike
#

That makes you the opposite of a loser

balmy condor
# cerulean compass So it's a nerf ? <:monkahmm:585734084571955211>

No so like heroic week right, outlaw got a buff, but they said it was a nerf, cause the spec got nerfed, but the tier got buffed. and people didn’t have tier right, so all of outlaw was in flames because “why would you nerf the spec and buff the tier, we’re just weaker now” except when they got their tier, they actually were 2% stronger than before. And now they get another 4.5% buff, but they’re pissed because they got “nerfed” in heroic week, and so now they get to be mad at the buff cause they were mad at the nerf

bronze pike
#

That actually means your a competent player that’s adaptable to every possible situation and want to prio fun

serene solar
#

Being a one trick and then being upset when your niche doesn’t fit the situation but another spec on your same class does is just wild af to me. Game is fun because of the differences in classes/specs.

cobalt sphinx
#

Mqm kills it from half and is almost always up

serene solar
#

I should read more. Does the affix die and reduce cds that are currently on CD by a flat amount or percent. Or is it like a buff you get for x amount of time that allows you to get cds back faster

kindred hinge
cobalt sphinx
#

Yeah transmitter is good for sin too

No sense in tripping over a bis list

I don’t think sub is really strong enough to ever play unless you guys have a strat that requires the burst

If you execute the key mecanichs well and have a decent knowledge of what you are doing you can litterally play what you want and time. Better focus on improving class execution and key exec than limiting yourself to gear

  • 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.

Subs burst ST feels good in that fight for making sure the creations die at good times

but yes it just happens

you dont try to make it happen

cobalt sphinx
#

I think I’m gonna time all 11s before i beat a NW

balmy condor
#

But 50% cdr for 20 seconds is 10 seconds

#

So it’ll only be 110s dm

#

(The affix buff is pretty shit)

#

(Even after they giga buffed it)

#

It also doesn’t work on abilities that have a charge or could talent into a charge

#

So vanish shiv and tea don’t cd faster

serene solar
#

Honestly I think the only reason I am able to have fun on sub in higher keys is because I have an Aug friend. Sub seems pretty cool/good if the pack doesn’t get nuked instantly. If you were sub with fury/frost as your other dps then you might as well afk

Is it that quick?

Yeah

I thought it was 90

Rupt one add or two when you can be melee

We are getting buffed next reset

But they will have to touch FDK before they nerf us anyway.

grim jay
#

idk I havent lost to a single DK in m+

#

but I didnt see too many good ones either

crisp pine
#

For some reason there are a lot of bad fdks

grim jay
#

the only impression I got was that many of them love to pull with frostwyrm

west crown
#

That’s because it’s the FOTM class along with shaman because of the hero talents

crisp pine
#

is fdk actually hard tho?

grim jay
#

no

#

not that much

west crown
#

Not at all

grim jay
#

gotta know some pulls

#

but most people share routes

crisp pine
#

Thought it was a press the buttons that glows spec

dense talon
#

frost dks dont let us shine. atleast in 10s and 11s. by the time ruptures are spread, caustic is used, ct is deployed, SnD and ER activated, the pack is dead especially udring opening packs. maybe i m too slow -> another possible reason

west crown
#

It’s Melee frost mage but instead of ice lance instead it’s obliterate

serene solar
#

Frost DK is hilarious rn. I have a 600 ilvl alt with 2 590 rings and 2 random trinkets and can pull 1m overall in a key. Now imagine with gear BiS

Did we get a buff now that they include envenom in tier set passive?

Is the 1.5% loss AFTER the 3% AoE increase or before? Like is the 3% offsetting it so it's a 1.5% gain in the end? Or the other way around. I apologize if i asked that poorly.

Retri is doing a lot of damage in my experience
but it's mostly nuking all the small adds so we have to fight the big add for 30 seconds

Oh so it's a net gain in both aspects. Sick.

balmy condor
#

1.5% gain overall

calm grail
#

I thought that while we were doing quite well in M+ our ST felt low compard to other classes given what we are.

This is really nice.

sin can do like 8m-9m in big pulls aswell

like NW

Highest damage in opening pull is probably unholy dk
These fuckers burst for 16m DPS in the beginning of stonevault

kindred hinge

And yes we can do 8-9m in bug pull. Inhave seen dk nearing 15

serene solar
#

Yeah I haven’t seen one (they don’t exist) but I’ve seen the numbers

Then they fall off forever

there barely were 2.7 at that point

i've done 11mil dps on small pulls on my dh

if everyone carries their weight, the unholy wont finish the pull with 16m

cus overlaping 3 cds is kinda....not smart

grim jay
royal lantern
#

im never using cds on the first pull in pug runs cus you know that the other 2 guys blow out everything there and stuff dies in 5 seconds lmao

crisp pine
#

does outlaw ever actually hold cds?

grim jay
#

dont think so

serene solar
#

Not really

#

Like you’d hold a ghostly strikes if it’s the last mob and it’s close to dead

#

But not really “holding a CD”

crisp pine
#

I thought outlaws just macro ghostly to some other shit nowadays lol

serene solar
#

Some do but I don’t

crisp pine

huge

#

now it's a 4 button spec

kindred hinge
#

Still outlaw in NW is either trolling or a level of idgaf that is quite high

dawn heath
#

u need some aoe carries if u are gonna do the first pull in there

u are actually cosmetic on first pull

Yeah they are probably fine the rest of the key though

so its pretty normal to do 10-15 mob pulls

u can get mega silence and dr from it

rly good in 12 keys

and your tanks in 12/13 do shity pulls into packs where you need silence/dr?

what are u yapping about

royal lantern
#

what are you yapping about

#

tf

winged sun
#

restealth for dps

#

and silence

#

both

royal lantern
#

so you are doing 12/13 keys

#

and at the same time have tanks that do the dangerous pulls by chaining badly into them

kindred hinge
#

!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.
royal lantern
#

and ofc "all the time"

winged sun
#

u know that tanks are randoms right

royal lantern
#

and ofc never vanish up aswell

#

well, your fault then to play with shity randoms OMEGAKEKW

#

pugs in 12/13 are still pugs

winged sun
#

my fault for playing the game

royal lantern

after the rogue opener, and you're just kinda waiting for cooldowns.

I maintain rupture and garrote.

But do I just build up 5 combo points and shoot off envenom on as much as I can? Or is there a trick to it?

feral mason
#

pugging higher keys is fine if you keep playing the whole season

#

At least thats how it was with the previous system

#

requires way too many hours though

#

If you are like 200 rating behind cutoff after a few weeks

#

its kinda doomed

kindred hinge

You have to anyway. Not enough key available at the bottleneck early in for the amount of people pushing. Getting into 12 rn is rough, will be better in 3 weeks

Hello guys, i would ask a question about, if you know why sometimes in fight, i ran out of energy and i'm like fucked up

kindred hinge
#

!design

prisma monolithBOT
#

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.

  • No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
  • 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
  • You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target

Since Assassin Always opens with ambush, did you drop improved garrote for anything Else?

static glacier
normal mist
#

Yeah we explained that yesterday

static glacier
#

Are you asking for a specific situation?

normal mist
#

Xd

#

Ambush the first pull, after that garrote if you have the darkest night buff active. If not, ambush

static glacier
#

Ye, I’d say in a key you ambush to open maybe 1-5 times

#

Depending on how long downtime is / if mobs don’t “die” and give darkest night

#

In grim batol I end up ambushing 4 times, and I can specify exactly when and on what mob

urban current
#

Bleed application and uptime is the end goal for aoe so you need to fire off as many ambushes+ruptures and weave in imp garrote in that small window

No not ambushes lol

Will pressing ambush once vs gar brick your key? Most likely not but I think you have a bigger risk of bricking a key by your tank flopping to white swings that you’d have saved him from / silencing a mob than most other choices you make in a key tbh

Fellow key pushers - has anyone else found that Blightbone's (first boss in Necrotic Wake) Heaving Retch cast is really buggy with Cloak of Shadows? i.e. sometimes it negates 100% of the damage and sometimes it just doesn't? It's nature damage so I thought it should work 100% of the time?

bold drum
#

First second of cloak gives you a giga immune that works on the wretch

woeful meteor
#

need to take the hit with the true immunity at the start of cloak

bold drum
#

So if you cloak with less than one second left on the wretch cast you negate everything

#

Alternatively evasion works aswell

gritty laurel
#

i think you can also evasion that one for easier timing

#

yeah that

gentle aurora
#

had no idea. thanks you peeps

#

so evasion has true immunity for 1 second too, or it just works because it's phys dmg?

bold drum
#

Evasion just works for it for the full duration

#

Only cloak has the 1 sec true immune
