they don’t
anything that promotes people funnelling more gold to them via purchasing it from the store is great for them
Idk why anyone would ever wanna buy gold from a sketchy website when the token exists
cause they undercut blizzard
better value for $
not that i've ever done it
how do i get the glyphs for vendetta and toxic blades
Yeah I don’t wanna risk my account or credit card for a couple more wow gold lol
but usually any gold selling site is 20% cheaper
Huh? I don’t think theres glyphs for that
yea I think the wow token cut down on it a lot but it’s still very profitable for people who do it
Maybe he’s playing sod
idk even the wow token is stupid asf
those guys arent even making that much, its the guys on youtube who have 1mil views telling you "gold secrets" that are making more
that adsense money
No because it was way worse when there was dead bots in every major city spelling out website names
honestly idk? wow videos definitely don’t surpass a million views nowadays
The wow token is not stupid
or at least not that I’ve seen
i was talking about this, sry is it just a weakaura thing
1mil might be a reach indeed
it’s great if you’re the one buying it, but it’s kinda sketchy that blizzard advocates for the selling of gold for irl money
as long as it’s their own pockets
it provides a legal way
to buy and sell gold
overall it is better
than the alternative
Definitely better than what we had before
Yeah lmao he’s just putting a different icon on the weakaura
im sure there was some group that was using gold to launder money and this gave them some way to kyc it
!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
in a perfect world everyone would just farm their own gold and rl money wouldn’t be involved 🫠
similar to d3 market
yeah but how do you "farm" gold
now
you can’t really now because it’s so inflated
hence broken economy LOL
in his edit
like you “can”, it’s just not really worth it on an hourly basis
unless if obviously you resell stuff on AH or the more passive ways
Probably why blizzard deleted all those gbanks to deflate the economy
I wish it was easier to just be able to afford enchants and flasks etc but everything is so insanely overpriced
because yeah the economy is super inflated
theres alot of stupid ways to make money rn tho
You can definitely make money if you put your mind to it , but the amount of money you get per hour
vs. Just working and getting a wow token
i dunno depends on whats being farmed
Yeah I mean flying around and herbing isn’t better than a wow token but there’s still ways to make gold
i mean you can make more flying around for an hour than what a token is worth rn
Oh okay
depends if your time is worth $20/hr
Its not just that, its a form of gameplay 😅
you’re telling me you can make 250k an hour or whatever they’re worth rn?
I want to know what the heck you’re doing because
but few wow players are making $20 after taxes
195k
Just sell mythic raid every tier 
Based
I gotta do sales this tier
I dropped under 5 mil
probably the only legitimate way of making gold rn but as a uni student w little time on my hands I don’t think I’d ever mythic raid
Could always move
unfortunately Canada costs an arm and a leg to live in
Getting paid to do reclear 
you know a former white house strategist used to sell wow gold?
its public knowledge

come to Ukraine. It's cheap to leave here. but there is 1 small pitfall 

LOL
”small pitfall”
:mochieerm:
Small

funny thing is I’m actually Ukrainian
Where’s my invite Kyle
Reminds me of the pilav video
but I have been in Canada my entire life
that was my 1st idea) That is why I replied to you)
@keen spruce
Already on it 
Where he just randomly drops one of those jokes
I hate Toronto lmao
do not go
I have been to Canada many times. It is very close
I live an hour away from it but I avoid it like the plague
Yeah it was either that or Quebec
I need another pilav banger
And I can’t imagine Quebec is better
on tier with “i dont want to stop damage”
Quebec is actually very different than Ontario
in the sense where everyone speaks French
Yeah, so worse
My visible confusion at how the French managed to call
a fries stuffed burrito
a taco
and politically speaking it’s weird since many people who live there still want Quebec to separate from Canada
And be it’s own thing
and been an idea for like decades
so Quebec is actually very very different than Ontario LOL
tough start to today, already was reminded of quebec
Rip
only up from here
and living here requires you to sell a kidney and possibly part of your liver
you don't know what is "boring" if you never saw Ternopil 
Ur so real for this
I live in a pretty quiet rural part of Ontario, but even regardless of that, there’s nothing really to see unless if you go up north
you have polluted lakes
a really shitty city that causes insane traffic within a 30 min radius around it (Toronto)
I don’t even like or watch sports LMAO
That’s good for your mental health
as a university student my mental health is horrid and I am very open about it that hahaha
Imagine letting a children’s game played by millionaires determine your mood for the day
you can always tell when someone is from quebec, they love to stick Qc in their name
I don’t need sports, I just need to screw up one test and there goes my mental health for the entire semester
I’m going to cook some fried potato so here is my cat and have a good day for all
anyone have a good suggestion for an elvui profile i can steal ?
Is there a addon bag for the warband?
I love ur cat ty

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/us/illidan/omdar was able to figure this class out the last couple weeks
Thanks everyone & @balmy condor

how did you convince your raid to give you PI on all these bosses
I’m neew to sin rogue m+ and learning. Can anyone please explain to me what the beginning of the below opener graph mean - “with darkest night proc” next to the first garrot and “skip with darkest night proc” under the ambush button.
Payed my priest
checks out
Also raid lead 😂
Darkest night is the capstone talent on deathstalker
how much is the difference betwenn deathstalker and fatewbound in m+ ?
Depends what you’re using as your measuring stick
Anywhere from fatebound being 1% better to 7% worse I guess
Realistically it’s probably closer to the 7% worse
thank you
With deathstalker hero talent, you open with garrote when you have the darkest night buff, otherwise you open with ambush to apply deathstalker mark (if it's the first pull of the key or you lost the mark or abt to lose it)
it took me like 50 tries to get zekvir. I had him at 10% on an early attempt, I vanished to drop spittle, and he immediately reset
only time he ever reset on vanish for me, even when I was noodlin' around in stealth for a few seconds he was dtf
!up
does the new echoing blades mean u can do a 9-10pt envenom?
Yes
So, is Bubbling wax second to whetstones?
or is Mana oil better than bubbling wax? I'm a little confused after the changes
Mana oil and wax are similar but wax is a buggy mess
got a real quick question with just a yes or no answer: does the queen's ring scale with assa set and stuff?
No
!tuning
And they never do
Items are their own things
And never interact with specs
(Sometimes they do cause they’re coded bad but they’re never designed that way)
okay 
@balmy condor thanks so much for all your content and all your contributions here. You made me realize sin rogue is the best spec. No matter the tuning I don’t want to play anything else now.
if we have to drop one piece of tier which slot got worst stats?
the one with the lowest ilvl
I think chest has odd stats
thanks for response but i dont think thats answer for my question
ty
does anyone has a good WA to track the mark?

guess i kind to need to yoink me the mark tracker only 😄
i use this for darkest night and mark
the ones linked by the bot do
ty
quesion, the caustic nerf / tier buff is already on live or is it next reset?
after reset
okay tyvm
does anything in particular boost deathmark damage (other than shiv)? comparing my own logs to others seems like my deathmarks are very low in damage
having improved garrote talented vs not talented
that would explain it
About the ring - the ring does nature damage, right? Does shiv inrease the ring's damage?
yeye, i read it all, im just confused because in sub, the talent lingering darknes boosts the trinket's shadow damage
in sub*
that's one of the badly coded ones
the rule is talents/specs never buff items
and then there's exceptions where blizzard was sloppy
like lingering
does lingering assa boost the ring damage then? 🤔
it was interesting question tho 😄
very consistent
I assume the shadow dmg lingering might get fixed at some point in the far future
amen to that, this may even shift up abit sub's trinket game
Thanks for that. What is the main rationale for that? Garrot from stealth does more dmg and with darkest night buff, the mark will be proced with full combo point rupture?
Darkest night only works with max combo point envenoms
But the reason is just ambush is a dead gcd during carnage
Oh yeah
Like if you only have 3 targets, sure
Ambush gar rupture works fine
In big aoe though you want to cleave those garrotes out
Assa is a very conceptual spec more so than an actual rigid sequence
Got you and the darkest night buff ensure we will get mark soon so don’t need to force it out at opens with ambush which is a worse button to press
So it’s hard to have a timeline
Yeah understood. That will comeswith experience
Yeah, you want to get the mark up
How you do it depends
As long as you get it up, it shouldn’t particularly matter
Yeah it is a dynamic spec, so I was trying to understand the rationale rather than just memorize the sequence from the guide. Thanks for the additional explanation
Whispyr, the people wants the yapping in the videos tyvm! Never again shall you delete it
quick question - whens the best moment to press shiv?
Be super careful of this, this WA bugs quite a bit and takes 1-2 seconds sometimes to catch up in big aoe phases or fights like Queen or M Ulgrax where the transition phase for some reason bugs it. I spent a week of mythic progression with this WA thinking I had a mark up or had to refresh and it was a full cycle behind

opinions on this opener?
Did you get it from wowhead our icyveins?
Because that looks like utterly shit
So read the guides man
ambush to reapply dots LUL
who let this man cook
You mean burn
All caps notepad is kinda sick though
this looks more like tryharding to troll the opener than an actual opener
Quick question, someone knows how damage reduction works when you combine feint + evasion on an AoE magic damages? It's -60%? Or reduction are multiplied?
additive iirc

u r welcome fam
If you don't have darkest night or any marks out, you would still open up with ambush even if it's a dead gcd during big AOE? I'm talking like the start of a key.
are heroic dungeons dps a good representation of ur skill cuz i swear shit dies so fast my dot doesnt get to do stuff
no they are not
u cant get value out of bleeds/dots if stuff dies instantly
also dps=/= skill
u can do dmg and still be sht
so probably gotta run mythics to see the dot work?
got it thanks, trying to learn assa from a friend but was cross referencing from a yt video and a lot of stuff looked different
yeah and depended ur gear u should try the higher end of keys to see how good dots/bleeds perform since ur targets outlast them/get the full value out of them
brother even in a +10 stuff sometimes dies too fast, the higher the better imo^^
im at like ilevel 569
doing about 500k dps per run
Yes 100%
Its overall pretty good for dealing damage already tho, no excuse to deal bad dmg there
on the upper right side of ur discord panel u can see some purple names,''Whispyr'' is the sin bigboi doing all the guides n stuff,has a youtube channel as well with alot of information to get u started,very solid.(And yes im a very old rogue to know he is doing very good job in communicating rogue information and teaching stuff)
You are indeed very old

shifu level old?
He literally learned flying on swords in ancient china
there is no metric or gear relevance in such ilvls,ild focus mostly on farming higher ilvl gear and get my rotations str8 but good job
alritee tysm ill focus on that rotation
u r welcome friend
all i meant was that even in +10, these metrics like mobs dying to fast is still a accurance. so its not really smth to think about too much
With average people they dont really tho
10s/11s are a pretty fair ground currently imo
For most people.
Does anyone know if cloak works on Sikrans big aoe ability?
yeah it does
Awesome, so same as second boss
Haha will do! I'll let you know later tonight how it went 😛
does this mean rogue is kinda bad
u cant do shit cuz everything dies too fast
rogue doesn't require that much setup
no, even if you dont get your full kingsbane ramp you still do good dam
thats not what i meant haha, im saying that it can rarely happen when people use cd's on your DM target for example. I was just trying to make the point that 'stuff dies to fast' is not an excuse for bad dmg or is anything to think about too much because it holds no valuable information
also if you are in heroic, you should be taking sudden demise
even low keys in general
how come echoing reprimand feels like it lasts longer than other times or is that not a thing?
!poison
You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:
Lethals:
- Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
Non-Lethals: - Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB
Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used
wait is wound poison still a thing for last boss NW?
oh oops sorry im kinda new to rogue😅
all good, but assa is really nice in keys. even in lower keys because of sudden demise:)
oh damn sudden demise is gaming
whats this under kingsbane?
troll racial
thank you
what is DTB
deadly
why do you want double vanish
you dont spec double vanish
the idea of having more control over groups sounds good
its fine
does crafting and recrafting weapon for free upgrades still work?
that wasnt the question
you would have to give up a shit ton to get another vanish, its never worth
lmfao
whenever soemone talks about double vanish
hahahahaha

I've had it work and also had it not work I dunno
i know that this zero guy pinned that
nope
but the idea of having 12sec silence i want to try it
asking for bad advice is a wild bit respect the hustle
Cos never worked on sikran for me
u have to cloak as soon as the cast starts or it wont work
learned that the hard way by flying for a bit
by "cast starts" you mean cast ends i think
cloak gives a "higher tier" of immunity the first second i believe so once the cast bar hits below 1s you can press
Yeah I dunno I had it work in like 50% of my attempts earlier today
it's weird tho cuz the knockback and damage are separate
Not sure what the factor was, but maybe thats it? using it near end I dunno
that is what ppl said here week 1 and i have consistently gotten it to work so
u can cloak the knock and still eat the damage
I've had it work where I got no dmg no knockback
other times cheat procs and I go flying
gonna aim for cast end next reset and see how it goes
i'm trying to figure out what I should run for mythic broodtwister, seems like all the top logs go for thrown precision (which makes sense). the main variance seems to be choosing either CT + improved poisons or imp gar + sanguine blades, whats the main tradeoff between these 2? assuming CT is a bit more aoe focused?
do you need ST or aoe
pick
its always 45sec
that zero guy is actually the top m+ pushers for assa
THE CD IS 45 SECONDS BUT HOW LONG SHOULD IT BE ACTIVE FOR?
45
sorry caps
jesus
he has a sick name

He enjoys testing his stuff, even if he knows its probably worse
sorry dumb question but is deathmark off the gcd
no
i could imagine in gb for big pulls which he is prolly doing with his grp it wouldnt be too bad to have this silence spamm
thats why he plays unconvetional talent builds overall, bcs he plays with a team
xD
The fieldies buff
those builds wont work
HAHAHAHAHA
@balmy condor yea what about fieldies 
thats what i love trolls for
Are we always going sanguine blades now ? Or is it only for movement bosses ?
Also should i Sim patchwerk and get done with it or is there a point in choosing light movement ? (Specifically for Sikran)
i can't remember ever going S.blades in raid
well warcraftlogs shows toplog going for it in mythic
Are you doing mythic
sanguine vs venoms is pretty much preference
sim the difference for ur character or just play preference
they are borderline tied
Which would be the best all rounder for M+ and raid? assa?
i wouldnt be asking if i didnt lol
in overall dps
That's a bit linked to my 2nd question
I was thinking yeah on patcherwrk its pretty much the same, but for light movement SB makes more sense since u wont be mutilating and dots will keep ticking + its easier to pool when u're not hitting the boss
i didnt use two non lethal poisons but one all the time since i play with the talent for 2 poisons
lmfao
it’s actually worse probably
you don’t want sanguine value
you intentionally avoid the talent
in rotation
cus it loses you dsm pops
also, you're asking a question that most of us will never be able to answer
but yeah if you’re that interested you can just sim it
and the amount of people that are raiding heroic looking at mythic raid talents is way too big
sim both builds with top gear on patchwerk and movement and then look at the diffy

or just
go with preference
cus it barely matters
and again, sanguine blades “value” is actually bad assuming you’re playing deathstalker
So the whole theory about SB getting more value when u suck at keeping godly uptimes on the boss is wrong for u ?
Yeah im playing deathstalker. Hate it but thats how it is
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.
straight up you do not want to be above 150
sanguine blades working is bad if it means you get less dsm cycles
unless your boss downtime leads to overcapping energy
you would rather not have sb do anything
oh i got it. Thought u could still maintain envenom uptime while proccing a bunch of SB
so you can keep spinning the mark
you can, that’s not what the command is talking about
it’s for the mark
the problem is SB eating away energy
less energy = less finishers = less marks
which ends up being a loss
over sanguine adding bleed dam
and having to vanish for garrote also sucks because then you can’t vanish to fix your mark on a sketchy fight like court
Yet toplogs are going for it
how am i supposed to ever do 8/8 HC if i have not gotten AOTC in week 1?
get a guild
logs mean nothing in isolation
guild
spend hours in Q
make the group yourself
THIS is making me so mad
get a guild or pug it
i pugged aotc by lying
^ saaaaaaaame
only works on fresh start, and then people fuck every mechanic there is to fuck as soon as we reach kyveza
i lied too bro but they just dont believe me anymore
straight up a lie
i tell them all 7/8 HC
xDDD
i did pop though
but p3 was a lie
So you suggest i should stick to venom OR still aiming for 100% envenom uptime and not try too hard to proc SB ? And just be happy i've got it while i go soak or do mecanics
If you’re making a mistake with your mark any potential gain from the sb build will be lost because you’re now losing your entire hero tree with no way to fix it
just play venoms
imo
imp gar build has better burst but exact same overall
for aids gameplay
We are 2 rogues in my guild. The other dude is slightly outgearing me (+5ilvl) and doing more dmgs while also playing SB. I was considering swapping but idk now
it is extremely unlikely that he outdpsd you because of talents
Btw, not sure if its a bug but sometimes on bosses (lets say last boss NW), after I get sent down by the time I come back up I sometimes have darkest night buff for 3-4 secods so I would ambush to re-apply the mark, but it dissapears. Is that how it should work?
Sb?
skill and execution are real things
gear and talents don’t magically make you do infinite dps
sanguine blades talent
if you’re getting outdamaged by enough that it’s concerning you should look at his cast timelines and buff/debuff uptimes instead of build imo
Yeah idk i feelbad since we started mythics. My logs are good in HC, i was dominating and now im bottom tier. Same guild, 80% same players

just apply it on the downstairs add and bring it up
oh
game is just hard
xd
it could be bugged tbh
lot more to think about in mythic
true
cant afk brain as much
make sure you type ??? in /p after every death as well
heroic parses are like hitting a dummy compared to mythic prog
everyone parses better in hc
still never an excuse to accept low dam when u can practice and optimize timings on the fights and everything but ya
whats the name of that addon that fakes achievs
wha
oh he doin it
aintnoway man
he gettin that AOTC
LMAO
its how i hit 2.1k in SL
Im going from 83 avg to 40 lol ego hurt 😦
i would understand getting gatekept on queen
but wtf am i supposed to do on brain off heroic kyveza/brood
that shit should be available to me
there’s gonna be crazy top parses in mythic logs
go for it man i agree
but yeh
time to get better i guess
there are people in here who do log analyses sometimes
i’m too stupid for allat
but maybe worth a shot linking logs when chat is more active
and asking for advice
Sure will do
I've tried the !logs thing in the sub chat when i tried to learn it for a while. Didnt get any answer so im back to sin 
yo! does anyone know how this weeks affix is affecting assa rogue by any chance?
i've not noticed my cds reducing but maybe i'm pleb
If no improved garrote. Is vanished dropped from rotation altogether ?
anyone have prepot and deathmark macro ? ;0
Only played 3x 10+, post nerf we can just cleave the add its not even noticable.
Regarding CDs reduction its very good for cleaving kingsbane more often with caustic, it sucks for Deathmark as its not aligne with mast trink anymore 😦

A french one lel
currently yes
because of a bug
!vanish
Vanish->Ambush during cooldowns with Darkest Night up has two main benefits:
- Getting more mark uptime by reapplying when it's down
- Consuming Darkest Night then puts you from 3 stacks of the mark down to 2 since the mark is already applied
As of September 13th with the Echoing Reprimand Fix, that second part is broken. Blizzard inadvertantly added a bug where you cannot consume mark stacks while darkest night is active. This will hopefully get resolved quickly as it is quite impactful. Until that time, you might want to consider taking improved garrote in your single target build (instead of 1 point of vicious venoms, or instead of improved poison). You do not have to do this, and if you would like to continue to play without improved garrote, you would simply hold onto your vanish in case you drop the mark. Once the bug is fixed you would go back to vanish->ambush.
🇫🇷
Thanks! @novel star
damn i played imp garrote but i didnt ambush after vanish i just reapplied garrote
did i use "Echoing Reprimand" on Cooldown?
yes
Guys, i read in alot of guides that Echoing reprimand does not work with darkest night, but now i test it on the dummy and a charged combo point does indeed onsume the buff. Is the bug fixed?
old news, it works now
thanks
So if in ST our first shiv is before KB, is the other at 8 secs of KB left?
yeah, you cover kb wish shiv
when 1st shiv expires there's 8s of kb left so you shiv again
Any idea how much DPS we gain on ST with the upcoming changes?
does Ambush procc make Kingsbane uneffective?
what
with the luxthos weak aura kit, why are the combo points lighting up green when i have 4 combo points?
What's the best wpn buff now for ST in raid?
Bubbling on main, whetstone on off?
just to add to this, as a new player trying to understand, echoing reprimand isnt something that lasts 45 seconds, they are stacks that start at 3 and are consumed and go down 3>2>1?
Down to bone
you press ER, your combo points 3,4 and 5 light up and you have 45 secs to use a finisher on those exact numbers to consume them
consuming a blue (ER) combo point counts as using a 7cp finisher
did u mean me?
yeah
Guys anyone try snap mechanic at necrotic all players stay dragon boss rog fly upstairs Tot and warlock summons rog is it possible this season ?
i wanted to know if Mutilate stacks KB better than Ambush, because of 2daggers vs 1 dagger
its more about your auto attacks
and having envenom buff active 100% of the time during KB
thanks for the clarification, was absolutley lost

does mutilate even actually strike twice
i'm pretty sure the damage is just modified by your MH/OH damage
also whats the tech to skip the shooters in SIEGE so we dont have to wait for them to cast?
dk pet order attack adds adds running to you los them left corrner
Well ye, it strikes once with your mainhand and once with your offhand
Wanna ask something. How important is it that we play Deathstalker for M+? Can someone highlight the benefits vs Fateweaver? Because I really really hate pressing ambush and then tracking which target has the mark when the tank pulls 10 mobs.
And I have to tab to kick . And tab to rupture. And Tab to check my twitter.
for m+ stat wise we still want crit mastery and low haste right?
oh it actually does
i thought the formula was just dmg based off your mainhead + oh damage
Sim is the only correct answer
But in general ye
do we want to proc Darkest night b4 crimson or after?=
But general is pointless when you want to sim it. 👌
!stats
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
feels good
Fatebound is a perfectly reasonable choice for pretty much any level key. Deathstalker just gives you more focus prio which can be more important at the highest level if keys
+5
Play fatebound if that's what you want to do, it's fine
, promise you won't be looked at funny
huge
Good luck
Petty sure th e answer is no but ironwire nonwistanding is there a target cap where it would be a dps gain to vanish after opener to spread more than 5 rupture ?
The thing is that you rarely press ambush past the first pull
what a gamerr
Deathstalker more tanky too
city of trash, yap
All that is needed to understand the upcoming changes is the first 5 seconds of the bottom left corner of Whispyrs new video
(overall same dps as hibrid for now)
blindside single handedly carrying bleed build
change my mind
🤤
anyone know what the buff to ST translates to % wise?
the patch notes are shit and vague so we don’t know exact numbers
but there’s an early estimation in the pinned messages
I would have made a gif of it too except I don't know how to make the youtube controls overlay to go away while starting the video and it's at the very start so it always shows up

ok but like

this is now your fault
LMAO
cleave is a thing you should not touch
cleave is like
if you need to ask about it, you are 9 key levelss under the stage where its a consideration 
its a very very very niche build
cleave is worth trying if you’re bored i guesd
but it’s not like good unless ur in insanely top level shit yeah
like, there are 3-4 people that can play it in a very specific team comp
i did a cleave gb for fun
on my skardyns grind
still waiting for the drop
surely tomorrow

lower but still a flex
i cant take it anymore

I saw one guy crafted this wtf is that 😄
I got a WUE Skardyn's on my first time in Grim Batol in the season
haven't seen it once since
the will to go on is depleted
i have 626 egg too tbf and that shit literally dropped on my first ara but my 2nd trink is anub crystal

i need an on use bad
please ion hazzikostas
I fit a delve knife and a transmitter and a heroic spy glass lol no pics though
Maybe we will all get lucky and get it in our vaults this week
queens is my only other trinket i got all season
okay thats a lie, i had a champion arakara on 613
!up
did they fix the warbound stuff droppping from HC bosses u alrdy killed ?
someone mentioned helikili did this: how come sims use CT in st?
o
it's cuz momentum is up
if i remember correctly if you have momentum of despair up pressing CT in ST is technically a dps gain
did i ever do that? no
i press CT if there are 2+ mobs
aka affix
ye
crimson_tempest,if=effective_combo_points>=variable.effective_spend_cp&refreshable&buff.momentum_of_despair.remains>6&variable.single_target
im gonna be totally honest, i dont think anyone is doing that 
Correct.
You can do this if you want to, the sims do it in the interest of optimization, but understand that it is extremely minor and I don't think anyone is realistically doing it.
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
@balmy condor holy shit that thumbnail made me laugh
can you imagine mists 1st boss with everyone running this trinket
crits 11m before damage amps
!wax
Bubbling Wax can once again be applied to weapons of all levels
There might still be bugs and odd things happening to it that hasn't been tested yet, but it seems to be working based on initial testing
Nice they fixed it
yes
thats part of assa
So for m+ is bubbling wax better than weapon oil ?
energy manangment and pooling is part of it
that just feels like part of Rogue and Feral in general i guess...
Sub feels just as energy starved outside of Shadow blades xD
yes
but sub is also not doing anything outside of dance
getting it on myth is easier at this point than veteran dafuck, i have seen more people with myth track on those than veteran
well yeah also true. which is why i only play Sub in PVP or Raid
i cant bear to play Sub in M+
sub is "maintain suff outsaide of CD cus in cds you have infinite cp/energy"
assa is "in cds you can use skills on CD, outside of CDs you maintain envenom instead of spamming kills cus its better
outlaw is "what is this weird yellow bar????????"
brothers may i ask what does haste actually effecting us?
I had it on veteran too
like does it give us more energy or more things?
Not true, when you dont proc you wait 2 seconds for 1 sinister strike

auto attack speed + dots tick faster
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
!energy
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
there it is

the "passive energy reg" doesnt really get increased, yes the tooltip says "More energy reg" but its 1 energy for 10% haste
reminder that mutilate is 55 energy, 10% energy is 1 ability more each minute
Even Outlaw feels like it gets Energy starved at some point
bleeds tick faster which technically means you get a bit more energy
but haste just doesnt have a impact on energy
its passive more dmg
the only stat you can "feel" is argurably crit
Mastery, because big damn :^)
cus that can theoretical mean "you get 3-4 cp more often from mutilate"
tbh
energy SHOULD run out at some point for everyone
what is the point of a resource bar if it doesnt run out
ask Furry warrior ....
a brother asked he has both 619 dagger but he dmg low af, after checking hes gear i found hes haste is low, i guess that the main reason but i dont sure, consider that i am not a sin master so the best way is to ask every master
im a furry warrior OwO
yeah, what do you even need fury for since you just get procs
if a sim doesnt tell you to get more haste you are fine on haste
there isnt much more to that
rogue is 1 of the classess with the biggest gain from it lol
iirc only arms warrior is above rogue for it
Sub and frost dk both benefit more than arms does


ye, i forgot that arms is kinda in rage overload mode rn
again
for the 200000th time
we know it and tell him then he blocked one of us
Like sub gets 7.5% from it (including the mastery)
turns out, when 1 of your CP generating talents needs auto hits
getting more auto hits is KINDA a gain

how high is assa
cant find it on bloodmallet idk
Not sure, bloodmallet removed it because you no longer need to have a windfury group so you no longer need to decide who gets it
ye i know
So the gain from it is mostly curiousa
was still kinda cool to see the differences
Hello guys, i just got araka kara trink, but still simulation says its lower dps than shadow binding knife by alot. How do you guys sim ur characters and is it really better to have ara kara?
knife is good, its just the only bad thing about it
is its hard stuck at 626 or w/e hero 6/6 is

Method: https://www.method.gg/guides/assassination-rogue
while other trinkets can get to 639? I think is the ilvl of 6/6 myth
is dbl depths better than 1depths and 1 radiant power?
On what parameters do you guys sim ur character for maximum accuracy is it on dungeon slicce?
Dungeonslice is as good as it gets for m+ yes
!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
has anyone done testing to see what 1 dawnthread and 1 ascension is like?
well im playing it even thou it wasn;t my original intention
Idk if i had 2x downthread lining wouldve been much difference
Embellishments are ultra weak either way, it doesnt really matter
The difference between them is like 0.1%
Is Dead-Eye spyglass bugged? i jus spent like 5min attacking dummy and it didnt proc a single time.
Mine procs a decent amount in keys, I always hear the god damn proc noise

what it sound like :o?
5min no proc?
gg bugged
which command to see bis flask/food/oil?
alchemical chaos,risotto,1 wax 1 whetstone
thanks
u r welcome fam
is there an estimate on the proposed tier set changes for dps gain?
as in how much we gain from the buff?
its all over,my economy in shambles

what is a pin?
Nullstones and gem settings are down so that ride is over sadly, but part of my strat is diversifying crafts so I've got a multitude of options to just keep going if one craft tanks
Yo a question, m+ wise. How should i use my rotation when i stsrt a pack of mobs in a plus?
upper right side of ur discord panel above the purple names there is the ''search'' box,next to that box there are 4 thingies u can click,the 2nd from the right '' pinned messages''
click on it
im making sub 120k on my ''easy'' days right now.. inflation is gone,no raw materials sell that much and the only stable income is from enchants right now
and tailor crafting
im so gone
Seems it only proc from abilities not from autoattacks, since i tested with only autoattacking and with abilities and with abilities i managed to get it proc
was certain it proc'd from autos as well but might have changed,gonna search for it and come back at u with more on that section
If I will just focuse on m+ I will go for 2x dawnthread lining? Ascension is more for raiding ?
way ahead of you, i relogged and it procced from the very first autoattack -.- i have no idea whats happening
Sure, it doesnt matter much either way, the differences are extremly minimal
im already using the trinket fam,ik it for sure it procs from autos
Like a bell ringing
Is 1 wax 1 whetstone really better than 2 whestone? 😮
sim it fam,u will get ur answer 🙂
I thought wax wasn’t in raidbots havent really tried ty
have people started running depths enchant on m+?
too lazy to switch and dont have another set of weapons

They do

i was out on vacation for 1.5 weeks
so assa get's nothing in the tuning worth talking about eh?
y baby boy spatter getting nerfed
daddy whispyr doing the work for me once again

i swear
some/most of you guys dont understand how the sspec work
see a ST buff combined with a spatter nerf and think its a nerf

😮
I wanna start getting into pvp (mostly to get achievs but you still kinda need to be good to help get them). What are some good resources?
it doesnt for me
and i just noticed i crafted intellect dagger
even put depths on it before i saw
it's okay your performance in wow translates to irl success
You need to craft 2 weapons if you're a dual wielder
i have regicide at 626 and a crafted 636. but it doesnt let me upgrade scalpel dagger to 626 for free in bags
can only assume it is because i crafted intellect dagger
instead of the agi one
...............
It is
That's a common mistake
Correct
why would they name intellect "dagger" they usually put something spell related on it
i jusand they look the same
so thats why im a loser
sigh

they dont
I had an idea for more dps
How about we just bring like 10 sets of thistle tea into a dungeon
Just start chugging tea every five seconds :P
did they change darkest night to work off of Echoing reprimand?
They share a 5 minute cd with regular dps potions
So thats not really possible
Thrall be praised
ER is gone in 2 weeks
I'm not sure if I should cheer or be sad?
I was speaking in terms of thought
not actually like in game
like saying we should just get stronger posions ahha
u know whats worse?
!pooling
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.
headache
quick q - is CT a gain at 2 targets or is it 3+?
3
guide says 2
those ppl will have the chance to vote ( 😅 )
!spec
All Specs are good and have niches and strengths that they play to. All three specs are looking viable with Assassination/Subtlety being preferred in raids. Mythic+ meta has not solidified yet but Assassination looked promising during beta.
Be aware that Simulations are a tool to be used to compare things like talents/gear/rotations, they are not the definite answer to what is meta or not meta. While outlaw is ahead in sims right now, especially dungeonslice, you have to take a step back and realize these are synthetic/generic situations that we use as a baseline. Dungeonslice has always been a great showing for outlaw simply due to the fight style matching well with the spec. This is not unusual or unheard of.
You can view logs of the raid when it comes out Here, or view the mythic+ run leaderboard Here.

Oh god why, what are we playing instead
Ourselves
Well if whisp is right 4% ST is not bad
in trade for 1.5% loss in dungeons i take that trade everyday
what should be my highest damaging spells in m+?
Damn i was gonna say my spatter is at least 1/3 more than my ct but im also trash
Thanks for making me feel better about being trash
I mean you’re probably not trash.
Most of mine is caustic > envenom, which objectively should not be it
My spatter is always 3rd on the list, I’m trash as well
got it
WTB more ST dmg
Quick one.
I know fan is 2+ targets, but is CT still 3+ targets? Or did that change to 2+ also?
also, why do we death mark so late into the opener with wow head build?
because you kinda want everything running first?
Ruptur increases our agility, you apply a lot of bleeds for energy sustain, then you go gor deathmark and kingsbane combo
and you can just spam stuff.
2+
its pretty much a ramp
1 if talented with mod up is technically a gain but I cba
appreciate the help
Hey I got a question does assassination rogue just sim low or? Since when I sim my assassination rogue I get like 1.1mil ST and with outlaw I get like 1.25 but I really wanna swap to assa but seeing the dps difference scares me is this normal or?
Correction: Use CT on 2 targets
also think about the uptime on single target bc its more punishing on outlaw than sin to not be pressing buttons
Yeah but is it normal that its that different?
The end times

mana oil or bubbling for m+ as alternative?
Might have been asked before, but is there a big difference between having everforged with ascendance and one dawnthread or 2 dawnthreads? Not a big raider, casual M+ and such. I get that it's cooler to have the procing weapon and I see a lot of higher IO rogues using it but was wondering if its' worth investing all that gold over just upgrading my dungeon weapons or whatever.
iirc they are about the same and bubbling is super easy to obtain
I show you biggest cause of fps drops (on good PCs) in raids and M+ and in general for users using weak aura packs.
I will do a follow up video in future on optimizing fps on mid to lower end PCs.
This video I wanted to get out asap cause it kills fps on ALL pcs from low all the way to the highest spec pcs. Guilds in RWF were even dropping to 1...
bro this shit is huge
holy its our boy @frozensoviet
RIP 
hi everyone, is there a good youtube guy with an updated guide i can put on the second monitor?
whispyr
ye it is,the man is an aura god
im following him for quite a while
its interesting cuz im getting my fps killed on brood, at first i thought it was plater, but that doesnt happen on huge pack of mobs on m+
only on raids
idk
