How does that improve your argument for no splits

Raids being tuned around some guilds doing 15 splits is fucking ass.

I wanna just boost my main

#

Dunno lost ark just stinks outside of raids

drifting cloud
#

you can tranfer the char into your current roster this time

marble hemlock
#

Having to do guardian and chaos and basically never having any gold unless you bus

drifting cloud
#

I dont bus 😐

earnest remnant
#

new chaos system is great tho

#

dont have to do them every day

marble hemlock
#

Still poop

#

Can only raid once and then you need alts if you wanna play the game more

#

Poop

im very happy that i dont really do those raids anymore

bro i used to RMT the F outta RMT

just behemoth echidna thaemine

and then you get bored

sterile violet

they never banned me

#

legit 1 million gold every week

#

i did thaemine and i peaced out

marble hemlock
#

it was my one grip with lost ark all the time, only way to really supplant playing smth like m+ 4hrs a day with lost ark, was by playing like 8 chars

sterile violet
#

yes it made me sick bro

lots of chracter lots of raids they gatekept everything it was nuts

I lowered discord volume to like 5% and blasted some tswizzle

there will never be raid comms on stream

The world needs to hear you yell when you get parried

earnest remnant

i dont get mad at parries

#

i just sigh

Parry needs to be deleted

earnest remnant
#

i get extremely mad however

#

when i play bad

obtuse robin

how do i get death stalker mark up after the opener

earnest remnant
#

so there would be alot of cursing going on

quiet oar

you start with ambush

obtuse robin

it stays until dead?

Ye

If it drops

ambush and Darkest night

@marble hemlock how do you feel about parry

hey guys

Parry KB when the boss turns around

azure owl
#

Can you even check on logs how many times you got parried?

marble hemlock
# runic hinge <@210784027752398848> how do you feel about parry

Parry is really a mix of fantasy and game mechanics that we feel is really suited for World of Warcraft combat. It encourages players that are playing melee to stand behind the boss, and we really feel that proper positioning of your character is an important part of skill expression. In terms of the melee versus ranged counterpart, it's never going to be an exact ratio of pros and cons, and it's more influenced by encounter mechanics. For example, are there a lot of things that make you move or a lot of things make you stand still? Any kind of encounter that forces significant movement or repositioning is going to certainly favor melee more since, for the most part, ranged players cannot do their full rotation while moving. So, it's not really a 1 to 1, but we do like the idea of Parry existing to further enhance the fantasy of playing a melee character.

blazing jewel
#

Off hand autos naturally miss but everything else should be parry

runic hinge
#

I don’t miss offhand autos

#

I just choose to not hit them all

royal lantern
earnest remnant
#

u know whats funny

quiet oar
#

True

earnest remnant
#

Rashanan in the raid cannot parry

marble hemlock
#

such an important part of skill expression, that certain hero talent trees cant be parried anymore

earnest remnant
#

but in the dungeon it can

late surge
marble hemlock
#

get parried bozo

runic hinge
#

True. We should all play trickster sub

blazing jewel
quiet oar
#

Its also definitely a melee fantasy, to see 2 Remorseless winters, pluis Grippy hands and 50 warlocks pets on ovinax to make it harder to see the swirlies

#

i love this

#

i love my melee fantasy

runic hinge
#

Bro I can’t see shit. I just pray I don’t get 1 shot by a swirly I can’t see

#

That fight is so ass for seeing anything

royal lantern

#

"you wanna colossus smash me? sorry bud, i had to target that ranged DPS for a second with a mechanic they deal with without losing any DPS cause every ranged has 5 fillers, instants or ways to cast while moving now, so get fucking parried"

remote holly
#

Any tips on when you’re energy starved? Do you pool energy during the fight and just somehow save for envenoms so it doesn’t drop?

ngl i had like 0 issues with visibility on ovinax

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.

#

sometimes you jsut have to stand in the tail of the boss

#

or the animation is hidden below darkness/slt or the webs around the big eggs

Sometimes you have to tank the swirly

marble hemlock

and then you cant see swirl

yep

i never stood directly behind it

and a poisonbomb proc for good meassure

the worst part is the big eggs

cuz they have these grey webs around them

that dont block movement

but they hide the swirl animation

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

guys, how much DPS is expected (overall) for a M+ @ ~ilvl 610 ?

novel star
#

m+ dps is very dependent on a lot of things outside of your control really

#

the comp and tank playstyle change it wildly

quartz cloak
#

Yeah it depends but usually above 1m

azure owl
novel star
#

if ur under 1m you got some problems regardless of group yea but

#

it can vary by a lot lot

#

with the same level of execution from u

#

m+ is very Conceptual

#

and Weird

#

and Stupid

uneven marsh
#

yeah seems reasonnable.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong then.

Previous expac I always met expected DPS on raid/M+ (sub/outlaw).

But it's the first time I play assa in this iteration. Back in Legion I had no trouble to parse high but it was easier I guess

#

I have 600/700k DPS overall in M+

azure owl
#

Can't just estimate dps on just ilvl. It will all depend on the route, the dungeon, your trinkets, stats and probably a few other things

subtle tundra
#

omg bring back agonizing poison! ! ! !

#

the better amp

red schooner
#

I still need to work on m+ rotations, I either focus too much on multidotting or focus too much on caustic splatter, need to find the balance.

novel star
#

just read the guide and hit dummies

#

or watch whispyrs youtube vid about it

#

but its a huge yap

lean shale
#

It gets hard to maintain AOE if things are still alive a the end of the first rupture. Without Vanish to reapply everything

waxen thunder
#

So im seeing a lot of rogues taking CT on Ulgrax and Bloodbound, is that seeming like the new meta pick, dropping some combination of the flexible talents like VV, IP, DS, IG, SS and move it to there for the add phases, or are we better off sticking to a more single target built and just using caustic?

novel star
#

taking ct on those bosses is parse farming

#

unless your group really blows

subtle tundra
#

to keep it going

novel star
#

jsut go caustic

#

CT should be the default on ovinax and then switch to vv caustic if ur comp is insanely fucked up

#

but

#

defaulting ct on any other boss is griefing imo

waxen thunder
#

Right on, appreciate the insight!

uneven marsh
#

ty for the advices, will re-read everything m+ related and check Whysper video

novel star
#

especially on those bosses cause like

#

ovinax has the argument of CT buffing your boss damage

normal mist
#

No problem

novel star
#

but youre never hitting boss + adds with the same ct

#

on ulgrax or horror

#

so its just

#

pure add damage greeding when youre not needed for it

Is the nightly sims up for raidbots

balmy condor

for what

timber oak

balmy condor

Which is like technically tomorrow but it’s 3 am on the east coast.

balmy condor
#

yeah that's not today

runic hinge
#

So reset is like 33 hours away

balmy condor
#

and also we would need to datamine

#

and we can't until the patch goes live

#

so I have my doubts that sims will actually reflect stuff properly

novel star
balmy condor
#

best case the patch comes up and all the numbers are just in the spell and get datamined and updated and we're just happy

runic hinge
#

Perhaps we’re happy

I'm happy :)

steel ridge
#

the ramping raid buff starts this reset right?

#

or did i hear that wrong

limber lion
#

The what now

runic hinge
#

Think like the icc buff

steel ridge
#

that thing they revived from ICC back then, where you get a little stronger each week

#

or something

#

instead of nerfing the raid itself, they want to buff the raiders

quiet oar
steel ridge
#

how much was it? heard conflicting info, last number was 2,25%?

quiet oar
#

2.25%

#

each week

#

till 18%

steel ridge
#

and it would cap out at 45% but wouldnt reach it probably

quiet oar
#

45% is an old number

steel ridge
#

so in 8 weeks we cap out

quiet oar
#

yes

golden loom
#

So would it be 2.25% damage? or like 2.25% of everything

steel ridge
#

thats pretty fast

#

should be everything, hp, dmg, healing

quiet oar
#

2.25% healing and DMG

rotund oak
#

😉

quiet oar
#

not HP afaik

steel ridge
#

ah okay

quiet oar
#

yes

#

because they dont want to nerf as muchz

#

i think

steel ridge
#

18% is till a fuckton

rotund oak
#

joke's on u,we getting them buffs

#

yup its alot

quiet oar
#

im curious

steel ridge
#

and still like almost 13 ilvl to go

quiet oar
#

Does the buff influence parses

steel ridge
#

so the powergain from now until end of patch will be another 30% or something

quiet oar
#

i mean

#

they will still nerf bosses

#

especially after nerfing 2 healers

rotund oak
#

ye but holy gets them buffs

#

holy priest

quiet oar
#

we talking about 15% on pres

#

and 5% on holy pala

steel ridge
#

ye thats gonna clobber our healing setup for ovinax

#

RL is probably shifting towards 4 heal

#

💀

quiet oar
#

we already play with 4

#

because without pres

#

you werent able to 3 heal anyways

steel ridge
#

the fight is so messy

cinder pebble
#

Skarsyns simming 1.1% worse than transmitter. Sims broken for those? Or is transmitter usually better but you need to properly position yourself.

it should be #1

idle siren
#

what i doing so badly? its multitate once in 10s?

#

i am doing it for sure :/

oak eagle
#

once every 10s

#

also make sure rupture is on the target your using mutilate on

idle siren
#

sure i am keeping eye but still missing something

steel ridge
#

or maybe stuff dies before you can get any spattering going on

subtle tundra

Hmm

rotund oak

#

Thats the right one

steel ridge
#

maybe you are attacking the wrong mob cause i dont see hunt them down

#

or you fail to apply mark

dark oxide
steel ridge
#

cause hunt them down FUCKS

warm vortex
#

It does

#

Amen to that

steel ridge
#

my guess is you just tab target garrotes

#

and then you forget what mob has your mark

#

if you even ambush at all

#

maybe you should try fatebound for a key

idle siren
#

prob dont going back to main target yes

steel ridge
#

or learn to mouseover bleeds

rotund oak
idle siren
#

it can be problem

steel ridge
#

its not a problem

#

you are breaking the spec

#

literally

#

dont ever switch targets

#

get comfy using mouse over

#

and just clubber away on your ambush target

#

until it dies

#

if you are more advanced with the mark, you can switch target while DN is up, otherwise dont bother

warm vortex
#

Idk about Anyone else but I feel like you don’t need to change primary targets for most pulls right? At least if you start in stealth

2x gar and 2x rup usually marks everything

#

And if not in stealth you just rup and gar main target before spreading just rups right

rotund oak
#

if u are sufficient enough to interrupt from focus ye

#

u never swap

steel ridge
#

you can abuse smart targeting yes, but its a dps loss at 6 mobs

rotund oak
#

jsut pick the highest hp target and chop it

subtle tundra
steel ridge
#

if you wanna switch targets, go fatebound bozo

serene solar
#

Is hunt them down called hunt them down in details?

steel ridge
#

yes

subtle tundra
#

idk whats up with this minmax bonanza, holy shit

serene solar
#

I am hitting a dummy and cant seem to get it to show at all

idle siren
#

i have it in details

subtle tundra
#

im never gonna tell anyone to learn mouseover macros just to play assa

#

literally ruining the gameplay for 1% dps

steel ridge
#

wtf

serene solar
#

omfg

#

im an idiot

subtle tundra
#

thats just horrible advice

serene solar
#

LOL

#

My keybind for ambush is one mouse button over on assa apparently. So I NEVER hit it meaning I have never procced the hero talent

warm vortex
serene solar
#

I just got back on assa recently hahahah wtf

fallen forge
#

Hey babe new Whispyr videos dropped see u next week

idle siren
#

so do 2x garrote 2x rupture on marked target

warm vortex
#

If you have less than 6 yes

idle siren
#

and with more than 4-5 mobs go for targeting

#

ok

#

6

#

i see

warm vortex
#

I think?

serene solar
#

I wonder how much of a loss it is to never press ambush in a key

warm vortex
#

Idk I could be wrong

idle siren
#

i am doing mark+garrote+rupture and going another targets

serene solar
#

Cause somehow I still did 1.1m overall

#

bro im laughing so hard

#

im so dumb

Hi dumb I’m dad

what is your overall on 9-10 keys?

serene solar
steel ridge
#

depends on the key i guess, between 1.5-1.7m

#

had 2.0m in mists with an aug 😄

#

but thats mists alright, you get amped and the 10% agi

rotund oak
warm vortex
#

Yea as sap says

steel ridge
#

but assassination can pad hard on overall, its in a very good spot in the damage department

warm vortex
#

Vary range is a lot

steel ridge
#

also depends alot on your group, if you have any useful buffs or just mages

serene solar
#

Well, this explains why I felt my sub overall and assa was stupid close

steel ridge
warm vortex
#

It greatly depends on the dungeon, the skill of the other players, the variation of what specs there are, if a dps disconnects and can’t get back on for a whole key

rotund oak
#

many factors

serene solar
#

Can't believe I was out here never marking targets.....

steel ridge
#

kekw

#

its blizzards fault

#

the mark is just a mess per design

warm vortex
#

Ye sometimes things die too fast for you to do stuff
Sometimes I’m trying my heart out and eating ass, sometimes I’m just chilling and doing well. Like if you have a ret pally and an enhance or smth that are both heavy geared and good at the spec then GL doing dps

#

i made myself a WA yelling at me to AMBUSH YOU FOOL when i am in stealth and dont have DN

warm vortex
steel ridge
#

ye, no

#

i like how deathstalker plays, but its not very intuitive for new players

warm vortex
#

I’m tempted to try it for shots and giggles

subtle tundra
#

i pressed kingsbane on a almost full hp mob in a 12 while the frost dk used cds and i got a whole 5 seconds of the kingsbane off

#

so shit can happen

steel ridge
#

my condolences

warm vortex
#

Don’t feel down on yourself if you play well and do bad dps

subtle tundra
#

i almost beat him on overall but i played badly

storm hedge
warm vortex
#

Sometimes people just obliterate shit before you can dot them

subtle tundra
oak eagle
#

no one in pugs target prio mobs

#

they all just turn their brain off

#

and press aoe buttons

#

so i always get all of my cds off

warm vortex
#

If you wanna do better dps keep using tricks on random dps players and pull before the tank

Trust me people will love you

storm hedge
#

It happens very often in 9s you DM, KB a mob and it lives for 6-9 seconds after that

subtle tundra
#

also happens that theres a prio mob really important to die and everyone uses cd on it so your kb is fucked

storm hedge
#

If you sync cooldowns with other dps

serene solar
subtle tundra
#

and no you cant just target something else, you have to target the mob

storm hedge
warm vortex
#

Also thought my gear changing from assa to sub last night would be a big change and top gear says to just swap one trink out lol

warm vortex
#

But when are we getting lightest day?

storm hedge
#

Yep this shiv env crits with capstone for 2.5mil

serene solar
#

Oh, now that I have grace trink. Is it safe to macro that into DM?

warm vortex
#

Yes

serene solar
#

alright bet

warm vortex
#

It says on the opener rota

#

At least iirc

oak eagle
#

sorry

#

had to go kinda nerd there

warm vortex
#

Also the darkest night crit —> caustic splatter did nice on padding my dps in the queen fight on the webs last night

storm hedge
warm vortex
#

We spent 3 hours pulling and got to phase 2 once :(

#

Was on popping duty which was fun

oak eagle
#

H or M

warm vortex
#

Heroic

#

We are more so casual though

oak eagle
#

ahhh

warm vortex
#

Or rather have a mix

#

Some people are like doing super low dps, some people doing v high
Our warrior padding so much he does more dmg on the add than some people do on the boss

tacit hedge
#

Does anyone exactly what data parses are based on? Is it possible to be near perfect on rotation but still be low % simply based on your gear?

warm vortex
#

Also did like
70% of the pulls assa 30% sub and at least so far assa feels more fun

I did a stupid thing tho, wanted to try outlaw so I put a fist wep on, changed to outlaw to get top gear then went back to assa

Forgot to take the fist weapon off though, still outdpsed 2 people tho

I remember thinning this after rashnan when we had 4 warriors

Literally nobody could hit the ads

#

Hold on

warm vortex
#

I remember seeing dps charts for queen

#

Including ads and w/o ads

#

Also hi whispyr!

#

Hope days going well for ya

balmy condor
#

Rasha’nan adds being removed is kinda a lose lose

#

Cause the adds must die

#

And so the damage is technically good and should stay

#

Cause it’s not really padding

warm vortex
#

Actually hope everyone’s doing well this morning :D

balmy condor
#

But also the adds easily can be “padded” by having just one person yoink all the aoe

serene solar
#

Yeah, Whispyr hi. I hope you didn't see all that above about me not applying Deathstalkers mark this entire season xD

balmy condor
#

But if you remove the adds now everyone is playing single target on a fight where you kinda really need the aoe for the adds

oak eagle
#

hey whispyr, do you know if we need the models in the afener pack? because i watched a vid that my guild linked to get better fps in raid and it said to delete all those, and i did get more fps since those eat a big chunk of cpu

#

they were in the combo points mainly, and there was a couple other ones

balmy condor
tacit hedge
#

Ahhh I see. I was just reviewing my logs compared to another assassination in my guild but the only thing I saw he did better was using 4 more shivs than me in Silken Court. Unless that's the difference maker

oak eagle
#

oh

#

welp i did all that work for nothing then

Does tricks only transfer our threat, or everyones to the tank?

oak eagle

only ours

thought so

bro pug tanks suck man

warm vortex
#

Never underestimate pugs

#

Never ever ever

#

In their stupidity

oak eagle
#

idk how, but they just cant get threat

warm vortex
#

Pugs are the reason stuff like plastic says “do not consume” on it

runic hinge
#

I’ve been using tricks cause these tanks are bad bad

oak eagle
#

on a worse note, i did a 11NW earlier, and that place hated me

#

3 of my 4 deaths, were to double Throw Flesh

warm vortex
#

Fuck NW
Yes ik it’s a free key if people do it right

storm hedge
#

Tricks are good for spiders in phase 2 on Ansurek imo

oak eagle
#

the other, was a earth ele taunting a cleaver guy, as it was cleaving.

full spire
#

I’m 619 ilvl and had just timed an 11 mists when I went to help a buddy in a +4 mists. We failed time by 5min and had 22 deaths. Pugs are wiiiild

warm vortex
#

Tbh I haven’t done nw on rogue in a while, still a shitshow?

oak eagle
#

yeah

warm vortex
#

Fair

oak eagle
#

third boss still a pain in the ass

balmy condor
#

I tracked aggro to see if tricks does anything during dragonflight at one point

Ran with a warrior tank, for every aggro I generated he would just be like auto attacking for 10x that

Walk into a pack, garrote 3x, I’m doing like 1/5th his aggro, KABOOM THUNDERCLAP and my fucking aggro bar DISAPPEARS from the meter

subtle tundra
#

like badly

#

hurt so much

#

no lube

warm vortex
oak eagle
#

my tank somehow died to fuckin ice shard on last boss, and caused us to brick, we were gonna time it, but had no brez

quartz cloak
#

NW on 10 or so has so many deadly stuff it’s crazy. Nearly every mob pack has some chance to oneshot you 😅

warm vortex
#

It went, interesting

storm hedge
#

I did one NW key on Friday, got cleaved 3 times by the tank just spinning around the pack Surebud

warm vortex
#

The big warriors?

oak eagle
#

yeah

warm vortex
#

That have an ability with the words cleave in it

oak eagle
#

yeah

quartz cloak
#

The big guy before 3rd boss with the acid spit thing which is a 0.8s cast or so just one shots if you don’t pre use feint, which is horrible when you just pressed a GCD

#

So without dbm or wigs which tell you the timer it’s dead as rogue

balmy condor
oak eagle
balmy condor
#

I do not comprehend why tricks exists as a button

warm vortex

:)

balmy condor
#

It’s literally just a button for skill issue tanks

I haven’t had issues in most of my pugs tbh

Tbh, it is a funny thing to do some shenanigans for fun

balmy condor

It’s like 1/10 and then I just let them do 2 gcds

quartz cloak

I really couldn’t press in time when he started and I just pressed a GCD

balmy condor

#

Ye

#

Completely uselss

storm hedge
#

Had a friend playing trickster in a NW key with 1 hour tricks. The add on the last boss when you get exiled snapped to tank cause of the tricks Surebud

quiet oar
#

Because by the time Sin would do enough dmg to redirect threat

#

the tank already got most globals out

subtle tundra
#

having a group wide defensive

#

nothing

warm vortex
#

I mean
Within 3 keys I had 2 shitty people
Vengeance DH that didn’t use a single stun, kick or silence and couldn’t grab aggro

Had a H pally that waited about 15 minutes to find a prot war tank, went into the dungeon asking for people to give pots, food, flasks and gold for repair and then left after first wipe

The texture of buzzcuts makes me so uncomfortable

Holy pallies deserved the nerf

what does uptime even mean in this game? like I always make sure rupture is on but my upkeep is 11%

balmy condor
warm vortex

Normally I’m like top ish?
Like top 5ish? Top 3 maybe?
Minus ulgrax, no clue why I always always low dps on that

Then again our guild has some interesting people
(2 pallies that do less damage to queen than the war did to the webs)

fast mural
#

On my guild i am in top 3 but still i feel we are so doomed

Slightly under

#

@balmy condor With the buffs ?: D

warm vortex
#

!restealth

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.
balmy condor
#

Yes

warm vortex
#

This what you wanted?

fast mural
#

Make some videos that we need more buffs 😄 , and i am gonna cry in forums

warm vortex
#

Also boomie feels really fun for me atm

#

Brain dead but fun

warm vortex
#

Yea

#

Buttttt

#

More dps

#

:P

sharp viper
#

whispyr is the biggest positive sandbagger of all time, doesn't want assa to get any buffs and always says it's fine, next level

balmy condor
#

Yeh we complain about the balance but advocate for bad balancing because the balance is only bad and stupid when someone else is on the top

#

When I’m on the top the balance is good

fast mural
#

It's not that i want be Number 1

fast mural
#

But mages-frostsDK are Number 1 Raid/M+

balmy condor
#

Correct

warm vortex
#

Tbh

balmy condor
#

Someone’s gotta be number 1

warm vortex
#

Assa is fine atm
The buffs help too

fast mural
#

Usually the are not S+ Tier in both

sharp viper
#

mages are special, they mastered the art of complaining beyond belief. no matter how good or bad their specs are they are gonna cry

fast mural
#

Assa is fine, but People are picky af

#

Specially in pugs +12

#

Looking for Only Dk/Arcane

balmy condor
#

And so your solution is to kick them out of number 1

#

So they’re in your position

warm vortex
#

Isn’t assa still one of the better dps specs in high keys

balmy condor
#

Yes

#

Assa is crazy good even without the dps just for iron wire

warm vortex
#

Yea
I mean

#

Pugs don’t like them because they keep asking for restealth

balmy condor
#

Real

#

Based even

warm vortex
#

Seriously if I ever get into gaurdian tank and an assa asks that

Ignore
/spit
and I’ll chain pull more

balmy condor
#

good

warm vortex
#

Then link the entire stealth video

spring sigil
#

Question, for the first few bosees in hc raid do you guys go purely ST build? (Just using the build from icy veins)

warm vortex
#

Or the assa guide one rather

balmy condor
rain wraith
balmy condor
#

And that’s it

spring sigil
#

Ah I've used full on mythic + talents for broodtwister and what not 👀

rain wraith
balmy condor
#

Yeh not in heroic

balmy condor
sharp viper
#

restealth in m+ has the benefit of iron wire silence and damage reduction for the pull - that is not something to always ignore

balmy condor
#

Just throwing away damage

#

But yolo

wispy marsh
warm vortex
#

Sometimes I do complain about not getting stealth, but that’s only when I should have gotten it and didn’t, like any of the affix stuff bugging

rain wraith
warm vortex
# wispy marsh link video pls

I cba to get it rn tbh
I’m p sure it’s just one of whispyrs vids
To find it watch each one with Adblock off until you find it

#

:)

balmy condor
#

I should do just an actual stealth video

warm vortex
#

Yea fair
Would be easier to link to the pug rogues before they say

“Oh what does he know? What’s his raider IO? He probably only does +3s”

#

Or they could just say the classic “you are wrong”

bronze pike
#

So they can stop playing double vanish

#

And gaslight themselves into thinking it does something

grim jay
bronze pike
#

Charge abilities that have no way to replenish those charges outside of regular cd

#

Is just gigA dumb and lowkey worthless

subtle tundra
#

whispyr are ptr changes implemented in raidbots?

balmy condor
#

No

grim jay
#

The sadest thing are tanks. Telling them they dont need to care for your restealths if they properly chainpull and then they keep dragging 2 mobs with like 10% HP into the next group

quartz cloak
#

This is a problem I feel. Had maybe 3 tanks properly chain pulling

subtle tundra
warm vortex
quartz cloak
#

Others either didn’t care about chain pulls or did the mentioned 10% hp left chain

grim jay
subtle tundra
#

honestly i dont see the point of double vanish. very rarely do i need to vanish to reapply ruptures

#

sometimes i dont vanish for very long

warm vortex
subtle tundra
#

and just vanish for garrets]

warm vortex
#

That isn’t doing it properly

grim jay
