if ur off by like 3 degrees its a fail
Boss can’t be outranged, we hooked him from the other side of the room
I keep not getting invited lol. 1700ish. Slowly climbing. I’ll spend a day targeting a specific key for rating lol
Had a tank in Siege go, "oh yeah forgot Rogues need resets" right before the giant boss.
Most most most stuff is a skill issue, that’s why I said ppl need to play it very clean to not make it miserable since small fck up’s brick the key immediately
LOL
Some dungeons just are more forgiving
guys, ara kara trinket or spyglass (with skardryns) ?
The fabled trinket from Ara Ara: City of Hoes
Sim it probably
I also like to look those up on bloodmallet to see how it performs in AOE and ST
yea i seen crystal being used too lately
Still kinda iffy with stat trinkets
Depending of key and comp you might want the one or the other
Because it depends on your gear
thats what i was thinking too
And they all 3 are rather similar overall
On ST
Its like 0.2% best to worst
With top profile
sim them 5 targets 1 min?
Does asa use echoing repr in m+?
Deathstalker yes
gottcha, ty
Does blindside transform your ss to ambush? or do i need to have it bound on nonstealth bar aswell?
nice, thank you
We thinking vicious venoms and poison talents will beat bleed talents with the buffs after reset? For most raid bosses
Seems like the 2pc buff is a bigger impact than the 4pc having more uptime but wasn’t sure if anything was solidified yet
Vicious venoms wasn’t affected by 2pc before right?
Yesterday I had +10 Ara and before 2nd boss tank said "OMG we have a rogue in party. I guess I need sometimes to give you restealth" 
as if pug Tanks dont single pack pull anyway lmao
i just tell the tank only if he wants iron wire on pull
like, the entire "omg need stealth" thing is hilarious cus some people act as if they get 0stealth trought out the dungeon, when in reality you can count on 1hand how many packs you cant get it on lmao
or if i have to vanish silence in emergencies
I'm always saying to my tanks, either chain pull faster or slower, idc which. If we get to new pack and old mobs are alive with my bleeds, I'm chilling. If by the time we get to the new pack they all die and I couldn't get restealth I'm like I needed just one more second and I could've get a restealth
do i use shiv before or after kingsbane?
If you have 2 shiv charge you use shiv before and then at the last 8 seconds of kb (so its up for all of kb)
If you have 1 shiv charge you use it for the last 8 seconds of kb
thank you

hey ! , i wondering is that ok for us to run with 2 uses trinket in raid ( Grim batol one and treachrous both in hm ) or i'll rather run with arakara ?
so is killing spree on outlaw the only way rogue has to consistently clear the slow on zekvir?
Transmitter?
sim, but generally the only 2nd on use you want to use Queen's Mandate
yes that one
Only two on use trinkets I would do is grim batol and mad queens mandate
Two stat on uses don’t seem worth it in my opinion
ok thx for your answer
Using ER and you need one cp to get a finisher. Plenty of time on garrote…is it a waste to use garrote anyway to get that one cp?
Constantly finding myself needing one cp 🤣
wild that im sitting at 6% haste and sims keep telling me to take more crit and mastery
Yall have haste?
cuz bloodmallet targets show something higher, im just surprsied is all
thought with kingsbane and hunt them down procs we would want some more haste
!up
I just take what ever stats the robot tells me too
And doing that has made me have like 1% haste
All I have is Crit and mastery
I just crafted crit/mastery boots and didn't even ask the robot
cause like it's fine
didn't even think about it just push button buy missive
yea it said it was 200 dps better than crit/mastery
Mastery = neuron activation
but idk if thats margin of error
Haste is for losers
Well, I do actually try to avoid haste only because I also play sub a bunch
if I didn't play sub at all I'd not care at all
Everything <1% is under margin of error
If you have too much energy how are you going to spend it fast enough?
What a pointless stat is haste
gotcha
Unironically not even an issue to rawdog the crafts for assa
But Crit sucks for sub
And just not have a missive at all
Boys and girls i need a weak aura did some of you cook it
I need a ambush reminder for opener ngl
like if you have darkest night or not?
I swapped from outlaw kir and im opposed to pressing ambush still
just pull it out of one of the weak aura packs if anything, and make it real big
Save yourself some gold and crafter stress 
No shit space sherlock thanks for wisdom big up my g
holy fuck space sherlock in here
friendly reminder that chain pulling feels bad, but isn't that big of a deal to our overall damage
!wa fr though all these packs have DSM reminders

well that kinda depends
some people like to chain when the pack is on 5%
and just leap into the next one
that is just so unneeded
if u chain earlier tahts acceptable
at that point you can stay back and restealth if it's actually that low
no
Chain pulling is legit the reason I sometimes wanna play sub on M+
cause the affix spawns and everyone else runs into the next pack
it's honestly not a big deal. just put up bleeds on new pack and spatter away
yes
context matters here
its a time gain to chain if the mobs are healthy
but not if they are fucking sub5%
if the affix gonna die you can just stand back and you will get restealth off
and criminally puts me in combat
if details accounted for downtime instead of in combat only u would be like chain pull the shit out of every dungeon
so hold vanish for that semi-rare isntance where the affix spawn between packs
ye chain pulling is fine but as i said some people love to chain when its sub 2s left of the pack then put me in combat or having me to solo the mob to try to restealth only for it to trickle into the next one and i dont get my stealth off
its so infuriating
esp when all the dps leave the mob too
i mean maybe if theres a ton of downtime between packs. if there's 1s of downtime, just enough to get stealth, you as a sin rogue absolutely would not say that
and the whole just apply ruptures
thats like
idk
10 globals?
to setup ruptures on 5 targets
maybe 15
like
its a massive dps loss
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
If you are popping from stealth, easy cleave dots everywhere. If you are chain pulling, you should have ruptures rotating out. So it wont be from nothing to having to use 15 globals to get up bleeds. If it was from nothing, then you would have Indiscrimate carnage. If you chain pull, just as the new ones up come, keep up 5 ruptures and then splatter a target.

If targets are dying faster than you can put ruptures out, you need to go up in some M+ tiers. You are too get gud.
If they are dying too fast, than sudden death is going to keep you at like 66% of your overall DPS.
Anyone have a macro for tricks that will tricks a specific player without dropping target?
Going up in tier will make small number go big.
less because of bonespike. Also you dont really need full cp ruptures, putting a few ruptures + crimson up and spatter is more important
here is a good example
of what im talking about
went through
Watch xd and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
pretty sure the guide has this in list of macros
just a simple focus target macro
I can’t sim right now maybe someone can help me- is heroic queen poison ring 626 better than a crafted 636 ring?
Yeah, you didnt spread rups first.
we're talking about the tank chaining when 1 mob is on 3%
you would've gotten the restealth if you stayed back
Yeah, but you did like 3 envoms on the next pack, just spread rups
the mob also didnt die so
i would need to let someone else finish the mob
and stay back
but ye this is just what i could find from my latest session
Ye the tank couldve waited like a second or two 
You also mut'ed before putting rupture up so no splatter.
i was lowkey flaming our shaman for beeing abit of a dumbass
But you couldve stayed back and killed it too
Tank was fine in that.
he was full fucking aoe padding on the pack
like there are at least 2 options you couldve done in that situation
I can’t sim right now maybe someone can help me- is heroic queen poison ring 626 better than a crafted 636 ring?
During adds on mythic ulgrax are yall spreading ruptures or focus target and caustic?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
it is not for me, simming 0,2% less
the other way around lmao the queen ring is better
than a 636
There is no objective answer, depends on your gear
heroic queen ring is full stats + a proc so it will greatly overperform ilvl

then just guess
its just weird cos on trinket tier list 3 trinkets are S tier
yea sim it
but only one is on overall BIS
surely some random in a discord telling you “yea” or “no” is more accurate
well its not yes or no i was just looking for insight
spyglass is passive MQM is on use
"is spyglass better than mandate"
is literally a yes or no question
answered by a sim
its hard to compare them directly, and you want one passive and one on use
well more my question is why are 3 S tier but not on bis overall is what i was wondering
but i see
because some ppl dont raid i guess idk
the writers of wowhead guides follow a formula set for them by wowhead
probably asked to put 3
iirc, spyglass is also in a-tier on that guide
also like transmitter sims as high as skardyns does, but whispyr is not a fan of the mini game
oh yah
if you can get used to it, then that might be higher prio for you
The mini game sucks
generally 2 on use is bad but it is possible for mandate to be a 2nd on use that you use outside of cds
i don't really have an issue with it personally
thats where the sim comes in
kinda weird but it is what it is
Well ye if your other trinket is skardyn
Transmitter aint good
Its one or the other
i swear shadow bind knife could be S tier if u get it hero track rn
my other trink is the kyveza 2p
No because the tierlist is based on theoretical max gear which is 639
Like the pad shouldn’t take standing on it for 2 seconds and they need to find a way to make it more noticeable when in hectic fight situations and shit all over the ground
Which is part of why its dumb to begin with
true
transmitter is 10x easier for me than witherbarks was tbh and we all used/wanted that shit lol
with my question before it wasnt the sim i was looking for it was the overall bis and why it seemed different to the tier list
but makes sense now
the only 'overall bis' really is skardyns
Overall bis is subjective
How big are daggers in terms of DPS gain? Coming from Outlaw they were massive. I'm crafting a big one tomorrow, but I don't know if it's as exciting.
guides say to go Internal Bleeding, but i keep runing into raids using Caustic spatter. Anyone have info on which is better?
splitting hairs but overall bis is not subjective but you need EVERY PIECE at max ilvl etc
Oh I'm not splitting hairs at all, I'm just curious how "Big" it feels.
MH dagger is really big depneding on what your upgrading from
Use internal if there is legit only 1 target the entire fight and thats it, otherwise, play caustic
you'd use internal bleeding on sikran, princess and maybe rashan
Basically the same value as every other spec including outlaw
cause caustic does fuck all on the last one
Caustic is good on rashan
Far better than the like 20k st you get
Helps delete the small adds
Sure, when it actually hi ts
Which helps with bad line ups
Thats a strat problem; the adds should be dropped “under/near” the boss
no, it's a boss hitbox problem
yeah it's pretty fucky on rash
idk last time i did it it was like 0,2% of my dmg
we just said the same thing
but yeah i guess if the adds are really under the boss
I feel you guys, but the gain from internal is SO SMALL that it is better to play caustic
realistically neither is gonna matter enough but
give us myth track delve trinkets you cowards
actually fuck that give me myth track bee trinket
Got a champ level delve trinket. Simd good for two weeks. Got lfr queens mandate last night. That simmed 5% ? Better before upgrading it lol

Mandate is BOg
Big
Blew me away lol.
It did 3 mil on one use and 5 on an other on a target dummy test last night
Sims still telling me to use that and transmitter. Idk how to feel while two on use
When bloodmallet says skardyns/mad queen
Thats still double on use lol
Skardyn + Mad or Transmitter + Mad are both great since mad doesnt really need to be added to the burst window. Also it even benefits a little because the boss health is lower when you cast it at 20s
waaaaa, Thought it was Skardyns/Spyglass for sure.
2 on use is not an issue at all tbf, they will never interfere with eachother
Well and we have moment to use them as well
Theyre all a few percentage away, and at diff ilvls some are higher and lower
Spyglass, ara kara and crystal are all pretty even either way
Just depends on your personal gear
As far as one on use + one passive goes

There’s not much point in running it though. So many other classes can the delete the adds in seconds, they aren’t really an issue. Better to take internal bleeding, pump boss and parse
Also after over 50 runs I finally got grace, feels good man 
Agree to disagree; caustic will give more overall
Internal is really really bad
I thought skard was passive
Depends
Is it not better to do more boss dam though? The adds aren’t really a problem and the objective is to kill the boss not pad over all?
If your party doesnt group adds well spatter barely hits
Yeah, the adds just get deleted so quickly
Really enjoying rash mythic tbh, fun fight
Providing I don’t get webs first
Maybe on mythic spatter for min max overall
Such a cuck having to run out mid death mark
They die just as fast in mythic
They should buff that trash Internal
The problem is internal gives you like…. Barely any dps
They should buff sub rogue
Btw are the changes in the pin going live this reset?
spatter barely hits anything on rash
pugging 12s is bordering on inpossible
So if caustic even hits just a bit, its cooked
True
with just 5 lfg andies no voice
But i do agree that neither really matters for rasha
I think more ppl are playing internal but its close
You can sim pw with and without internal/caustic and its like .2% diff
isn't add damage on rash excluded on logs
Yeah 12 affix is a terrible choice and i wouldn’t be surprised if retention tanks because of it
Not sure
It is
the gap between 11 and 12 is too hard
there you go no reason to pad
alot of bosses are terrible on 12+
also the worst part
is the 15s death timer
key is just immediately bricked unless everything is perfect
and u go close to death less
like i've had 11 keys with 9 minutes left and we cant do 12
make it make sense
Why does that not make sense
difficulty curve is to steep
The intention is for 12s to be significantly harder
Yeh, and it's a shit intention
People will just quit
Number goes up by one, difficulty goes up more than one "number"
we aren't anywhere near the gear cap for the season, i dont understand why people think they need to be flying through 12s+ rn
if 13s were at 12 difficulty then that would be more reasonable
Just psychologically it feels bad
people don't like making no progress
u can't really lfg +12 keys
and most people dont have teams
they made the gearing take longer to extend the progression, ofc you aren't going to be able to do the highest keys rn
sure gear will play a factor but it still requires close to perfect cordination
things are overtuned
M+ is a race at the end of the season, not the start 
well it does rn, because you dont have the gear to make it more trivial
and we are talking in circles 🙂
I think the issue on 12s right now is not damage is survival
if they removed the 15s death timer then it would be more bearable
key beeing bricked with a single tank death is no fun
groups I tried with have no problems with the trash but some bosses just hits too hard
this just sounds like key pushing to me
^
¯_(ツ)_/¯
It just happens earlier than in previous seasons
Less inflated io
well, it's also becasue gearing in DF was super fast compared to how it is now, so ofc people will think that they are hitting a brick wall earlier
i don't think u guys play keys if u have this opinion
Yea exactly
u just play weekly 10s

or you havent played push keys before
the typical retort
Something like internal deals 30% more damage if you have dealt poison damage in the last 5seconds
Or bleed which makes more sense
Or like this other talent which deals more dmg if energy is above 50%
yea, the 12 scaling is aggressive but that was the intent, we also still have 10+ ilvl and optimizing to go
agreed would like a nerf on the death timer

and the death timer is a complaint for all levels of play, ppl hate it (dont blame em, it is a stinker)
50% of the playerbase will not stick around if they cant make any progress unless they wait for 2 months of vaults
Also since when can the boss parry kingsbane lmao
Legit parried on our kill pull on brood
50% of the playerbase wont stick around anyways
thats just the nature of keys
The amount of people pushing 12s are miniscule to begin with
lmao
But thats not the playerbase the new 12s are made for
Always
The absolute vast majority that even go to double digit keys stop after the portals
some (most) people do them for gear, some people do them for pushing

great game design when
i lose my crit buff
but not the frost pool
when i die
i was supposed to come up and blast cds wiuth crit buff
your team fucked you by dropping swirlies there tbf
that was avoidable
(not for you)
i could have lived
but it was
i panic pressed blur
if i pressed nw
when i was dropped off
instead
blur is not enough
but ye
is there a list of all rogue changes for 11.0.5 somehwere?
yeaaaa
they shouldnt stand there
unluck
8 10s a week logger reporting for duty
its kinda hard for me cause
im doing 12s on 2 characters
havoc kinda stinks
so i started playing assa
but i started playing assa recently never played rogue before so
12s are challenging
even though im a title playr
i dont think im doing poorly but
also kinda figuring out when to play cheat vs elusiveness
strangely enough vspeed plays cheat almost everywhere where as casualaddict plays elusiveness everywhere
elusiveness stonks gonna go up a lot when feint is off the gcd in .5
cheat is the default, so to speak
if u need elusiveness to live mechanics u have to
kinda depends on key, but at some point the dungeon is gonna have some bs st nuke that kills without elusive
Ive seen people say this, but it seems like such a non-change to me
It still costs energy, so for the most part it still costs you the same amount of damage
So it really doesnt matter
I see where youre coming from since we generally arent gcd locked too
the issue with feint is the energy not the gcd overall
it matters but not by much
yea, those are good points and i agree
i've found myself unaware of incoming damage and then been GCD locked and had to press evasion cause its off gcd instead of feint
i realize i have to press something like
0.2s before it happends
then u cant feint
although these situations are rare
I read “cant feint” and now linkin park living rent free
Im not complaining, obviously off gcd is strictly better than on gcd
But i dont feel like its a huge buff

leeech or avoidance enchant is better on wrist and back ?
mostly preference, speed can be good too
Depends if you want leech or avoidance
avoidance if ur playing high keys
stonevault question. do I need 2 orbs going into shield phase?
what keys can i do starting at 609
all of them. what will you get invited to is the better question
Start by building your io doing 2-3 keys of every dungeon
Just take them all so nobody else gets a shield amp 
your own keys. Im 2700 and still hardstuck 12s cant get in. before that i was 2650 couldnt get into 11s. before that same thing.
My rat havoc is 600 ilvl but +2'd like 5/8 9s still cant get into 4s
i just do my own keys instead
Yeah if you ever want to see something funny, try queuing on a mage alt. invites are like 10x more frequent. I've gotten 10-11 keys on my 607 mage lol
anecdotal, but i've yet to see a mage that really pumps
not doing super high keys though
maybe thats where all the big dick mages are, and i'm stuck with the alts
guys, whats caustic spatter's spread range?
nah fuck mages i ahte them so much
trying to find it but couldnt find anywhere
isnt it like 5m from the target
was doing my 12 NW last night, we got to 3rd boss, we have 8.5 minuets pulling the boss after his bs rp
we specifically invited this arcane mage to burn boss there
triplpe spear, lust, pi bro is fighting the tank
HOW
pretty sure it's melee range from target, but it's not something i really worry about/figure out mid fight, just eyeball the most central mob
i know its from the main target and not the player, but we're having issues with spiders in broodtwister not being effectively targeted by spatter
thats wild, yell at your grippers to get them under the boss
he didnt even cd trash both me and my enhance friend were at 2.2 M overall by 3rd boss
and he was 1.4
he was legit afk
8y from center of target iirc
how does assa do 1st boss in ara when spiders spawn? am i supposed to reapply dots to all of them or am i spamming fan of knives with envenom only?
thanks, and do you know how does it work in a big target like broodtwister
its the whole circle or just the center
Does WCL not track add damage on rashanan? was wondering why rogues with caustic had 0 caustic damage on the fight
any fight generally says what's excluded at the top no?
they removed pad damage from that boss
its only boss damage now + i guess stunned people? idk
Just the center
I know the spikes on silken court arent included, are there any other bosses like that?
That’s why it sucks for rashanan
(webs on ansurek maybe)?

i've yet to find a model in my weakauras
and i still eat shit
nothing included with atrocityui has a model :/ i just want over 30fps in raid
I'll say it depends on your group composition but applying crimson tempest and using evenom on your caustic splatter target
thank you
yo, quick question as blood dk, how "bad" is it for you to not be able to stealth between packs if I wanna connect packs ?
depends on HOW you connect packs
dont chain a 5% mob
chain pulling a half health group into a new gorup is good, pulling a 5% mob into the next pack sucks
Depending on the key level if you have something like a warrior that can do huge aoe burst I don't even hit them
"i'm chain pulling" -> you're just dragging a corpse to the next pack and holding me in combat
USUALLY the rogue can hang back and restealth, but not always
9 and higher you need too tho
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
yeah, speaking about 10s and 11s
Rogues being able to stealth between packs guarantees you'll have AoE silence due to how iron wire (talent) works. If you think that's not necessary and can safely chain to a new pack, bring the pack you currently have at like 30% hp (and please don't do this if its only 1 single mob or 2 at like 5%). The rogue will have extra agility running from scent of blood (talent) and dots running which will ease the opener on new targets.
alright
don't forget iron wire reduces mob damage dealt
Yeah that helps as well
so on a tough pull, it can save your ass
!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
Is it okay to play ascension and 1x dawnthread?
super waste
yeah its kinda meh
I play m+ only
then double dawn
like if you just need to play it in the meantime until you get another piece craefted, you gotta do what you gotta do
Well my dagger was shit
remove the emb and get 2x dawn
^
So 200k rip
Talents to be aware that we bring:
Still need mats r3
Which are super expensive
yeah you should be able to get away with lower qual mats for the r5 recraft
depends on the crafter obviously
forgot these two
Thanks
I mean embellishment is not that big. I run 2x verse ones and still doing fine as sin

correct
It seems odd to have all of these percentage changes baked into a future update on top of all of the changes they’re doing every week.
We just chillin waiting for it
shouldnt be all that long until it drops tho
yeah it isnt
what bis neck we have from dungeons? keychain?
hey guys, just a question about embelishments... seeing that people most likely use Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension with the Writhing Armor Banding instead of double Danthread Lining, ist it worth to swap it or just staying Dawnthread?
if you mainly raid, ascension
if you mainly do m+, dawn thread
If you do both equally, Dawnthread
Sims show that Dawnthread active for 80% of the time is as good as ascension
Does anyone else find themselves telling the tank to allow stealth after they chain pull for 4 mins straight and I'm OOM as fuck?
Energy doesn't matter at all? Wild
how are you oom wtf
use your rupture skill, wild
hidden mana bar
Try to snipe with rupture
if there are packs of mobs you shouldn't be oom at all
correct
Nah. Didn't say that. Trickle pulling in the first area of echoes non stop even into the boss sucks imo for sin. Missing out on stealth silence and triple rupture feels worse than not having it outside of a 2 min vanish.
Sucks more for mages
i miss burst of speed

there is 1 caster a pack lol
wdym "no silence"
So if I’m reading right snd will apply on envenom so we can stop using it in the opener?
the only time you have multiple casters in arakara start is on the very first pull
yes
basically cttc works like it did before
but gives snd if its not up on a envenom cast
Burst of speed was fun in bgs
should feel pretty good, doesn't sound like a huge buff and it isn't obviously, but wasting that GCD on the first pull in M+ feels icky
Took them long enough
But blizz is on a QoL spree lately
instead of cast it once in the opener
nodust
Im excited to get two keybinds back
SND and ER
focus target slice and dice
or for tea 🙈 ?
Echoing Reprimand is fun tho, unlike tea, imo
I just spent too much time learning the CD window and proper tea usage to unbind that LOL
as a non assasssination main
i found ER kinda decent/good on dummy
when testing outlaw/sin
ER isnt bad, I dont mind it, but ill take the keybind slot thats comfy for something else
but it fells horrible on Sub because of sht, blades and other shananigans
Why do we tea in opener btw?
Does deathstalker mark stack the mutilate damage if mutilate not casted for multiple consumptions of the mark
To put it on cooldown
Mastery increase
to get the cooldown rolling
you have 3 charges, so by using 1, you have 60 seconds to use your next charge
while already getting cdr
Er on sub felt bad last time I tried it this expac
It still felt better than er on sub in Shadowlands though lol
That was absolutely miserable
i sit on my tea charges outside kb windows, not looking forward to the auto use change
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
S1, I think?
materials are dirt cheap rn,EU economy collapsed.Nothing is expensive anymore
speaking of qol, i member #outlaw having a tizzy fit when they combined ambush and sinister strike onto the same button
i assume removing SnD will also be equally upset 
!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
when you try to dodge something and just get out of melee and then get charged to the boss
esp. nice on queen when there is a poison zone
oh rly, i don't remember this
assassiantion getting mut/ambush
I'm pretty sure whoever came up with the concept of an animation lock on a normal CP spender
also felt like a good qol
It just seems like a concept that came out of nowhere to get applied to trickster tree
the auto-ambush was a good change. an unnamed frenchman was insistent on how it was a skill check to keep ambush on another button and that auto-doing it was dumbing down the spec

This doesn’t narrow it down at all. Half the channel is French
coup de grace should have 20 yard range
16 Views. Watch woops and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the #1 Game Clip Platform.
some pro rogue gameplay right here
i've become a fan of shadowstepping city of echoes last boss suck in
portal circle? probably
That won’t fuck any stacks weirdly?
going to add this to my assassin macro for keys
"How to explain to 2 braincell tanks why they shouldn't chain pull"
Well chain pull and their chain pulling is different
Chain pulling is fine if done properly
all i want them is to pull/plant in an efficient manner so i actually can do the multidot silencing thing and not just hit pooling on adds.....
that said (shoot me now if you think this is treason) i have been running outlaw in keys all week and it has been FUUUUUN.
!lag
Significant WA lag
Weakauras has identified a source of large lag on some weakauras. This happens on any weakauras using MODELS in their display tab. Deleting the model or turning the affected weakaura to never load should give back a couple of FPS.
You can check for impacted weakauras by running the following script in your in-game chat. If any are affected, their name will show in your chat: lua /run local function _(a)if a.regionType=="model"then return 1 end for i,s in pairs(a.subRegions or{})do if s.type=="submodel"then return 1 end end end for n,a in pairs(WeakAurasSaved.displays)do if _(a)then print(n)end end
i also pulled another rabit out of my ass
got a champ track skardyns after carrying a team (other 2 dps were shitters, the TANK was 619) through a 4 butthole
and then I got given a champ track broodsac by a tank after carrying the final boss of ara-kara after the fury war ate shit like 1 minute into the fight
if any of your weakauras uses a model, thats rly bad for fps
so im ready for my vault to be shit again tomorrow 🫠
I can’t find a solid answer anywhere after scouring the discord and I’m too afraid to try it in raid without knowing, does evasion save you from ulgrax devour when he’s pulling you in after soak?
took a shot in the dark, asked the PROT WARRIOR if he needed that trink, he said nope, and I opened trade.
I too would like to know this.
I’ve seen several people ask but 0 responses. Only people responding “no” to cloak working on it
use your defensive CDs like offensives. use them to stand in shit and ignore mechanics 
Uh let’s see if I can find a log
that said, keep trying cloak on different dots/debuffs. you would not BELIEVE the amount of shit i've found that you can just uno reverse off of yourself. (mainly in keys)
otherwise, it acts kind of like turtle. If it's magic damage, you can uno reverse it for 3 seconds.
you CAN stand in the big bloodbound horror "run away" thing if you cloak it the second before the cast goes off
Any tips for Zekvir ?? ? I feel like most of my problems are with bursting the add down which feels like a general weakness of Ass Rogue anyway.
Go outlaw
^^^^
assassin needs buddies to get the most out of it's kit. Outlaw says "fuck it, we yo ho"
this is actually a gain in mythic since you immune the dot that kinda cranks after
its ethical rather than degen only
i tried to explain assassin rogue aoe damage to my raid team this morning
got "yelled at" for making a joke about not hard swapping to adds
like "yes, i can help you with that scarab (on silken court), BRING IT OVER HERE"
sure ill hard swap let me spend 4 globals and then begin to dps with 50 energy
play sub on silken tho, big fun
fuu plz give me your wisdumb
no thanks, i'm not a weeb
It’s nature damage so no
H ansurek down. And three shields dropped -_-
about evasion working, i am not sure.
I can tell you it works on the spin attack on the last boss on fungel folly
besides shadowstep auto places you right at the circle, works for queen on wrest pull in too
but i haven't tested it with the drag in
Sec
i would default to "it does not work", and maybe test it if we have a called whipe
speaking of evading pull in mechanics
what about the intermission on ansurek with the pull in
Step
she smacks you for 15mil damage but can it be evaded?
gonna have to practice this because you can also step the poison wave
never do this
you're cucking your raid if you avoid nova
i am not some master stabber
do you have any idea how little that narrows it down
you can still step boss after knockup
getting knocked up prevents raid damage, avoiding it causes raid damage
but don't avoid the knockup
Every person not in the circle gives a stacking dot on the raid
it does? how
ohhhhhhh shit
did not know this
noted
in heroic half the raid has to be in each one, for each person that misses you get an additional stack of the debuff
so step to boss after we get sprung. gotcha. was doing that before, so i can train myself to do it again
we haven't reached heroic ansurek yet, we got heroic silken court down to like 8%
so we'll reach heroic ansurek tomorrow/wednesday
if you have 2 debuffs your team is good, if you have more they suck or you have folks dead
on the opposite side, DO cheese the portal mechanic
in p3
i remember some step discussions around that
See nothing on devour, gonna assume it’s a no go. But will test it if we do some rat raid this week.
Did learn that you can evade the charge in intermission
because you will avoid the extra debuff if you step over the shrinking line
But the dot still effects you
step makes sense b/c i am like 95% sure you step to just outside of her smack ring, and i ASSUME stepping also cancels out the momentum from the pull
just pray to rng you don't accidentally step into a poison wave
the circles in heroic during p1 intermissions are actually super generous
do we have? (if not, "we" should make) an article of all the mechanics you can cheese as a rogue. Step, Evasion, or Cloak
you won't kill anyone standing on them to dodge a posion ball
an exhaustive list of this would be enormous
yea someone has to maintain that list
big job to verify every "i cloaked x mech" claim
you know idk
you could do a google form i guess but people dont like filling out forms
well a good way to cut that list down would just be a quick overview of "werf" vs "not werf"
like the poison nova on ansurek. you CAN step through that on heroic, but doing so screws your raid team, so don't.
But on mythic BBhorror, cloaking the run out nova actually prevents the dot from sticking to you, so DO cloak that (half ethical, half degen
)
for half of the mechanics you coud just pug into some trash normal or lfr or something
with how squishy yellow class is right now it's a bit spooky to cloak for greed unless you're in super farm content
i like to test most mechanics on prog cause fuck it why not
in mythic or heroic?
just cloaking/evasion random shit
We did that
And no one did it
color me surprised
heroic im greeding all day and pissing off my rl 
Asked pretty exhaustively in 9.2
100
nothing will kill you in heroic anyway except queen or silken if you guys don't stop the charge, even then wiht personals you can live it
yeah sounds more like a personal project sort of deal for a turbo nerd with way too much time, or something like a youtuber would put out to hyper analyze mechanics of a game (like something out of destiny)
I would offer but sadly am in school rn so I don't have the time 
i would contribute to it if i was back, but i dont wanna be THE PERSON in charge of it
cheat death go woosh
when i was progging heroic court last week we didn't know it got nerfed to only need 1 tether to stop the bug man
It was a whispyr form.
But it was myself, oxi, and him that maintained
someone also said it in sub but basically i was doing it but no one cared so i stopped
its so easy now
so the two times we tried we kinda got alone and if someone asks every half a full moon
we can just repluy
Weird stuff like devour
you know what else i miss
Never on the radar tho
is the podcast 
Us?
Same
Oyyy can you Meld / Vanish the Sikran charge thing ?
if you're spot 1 you can
Something weird happened the other day when a guy died and didnt proc ghost so i looked up "Sikran" on wago and found this : https://wago.io/MAQi8XGDc
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
Doesnt work for the others ?
Can you if you time it precisely after each charge
(It’s half a second at best)
My raid is messy (and probbly my brain) and im having trouble figuring out early if im first or nah until we're all gathered up
once feint is off gcd im elusiveness chad, get rekt periodic damage im gonna LIVE
Line would go directly to you from boss if you’re first
i forgot about this change, when is it?
if you're saving vanish rather then using in your opener that's kinda shitty tho
yeaaaah but imagine im stacked with the melees and then the other guy starts running and i cant see shit. Idk MOST LIKELY A ME PROBLEM
I'm N.elf ill try to meld it
sorry my vicious venoms are covering your message
tfw you open with ambush but DSM doesn't go and you have to burn a vanish to apply
couldn't be me dude
what am i doing wrong if i find myself running out of energy during boss fights?
!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.
!design
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
mutilating rather than chillalating, also good tea usage
(im horrible at thistle tea i feel)
i thought it was coming in the next patch
I have a question that im afraid to ask
why is Outlaw parsing higher in pure ST fights
parsing? you mean simming?
we tried that btw
yeeeaaaaah quake gave me the rundown

absolute fucking nightmare
im jsut glancing over heroic ect... maybe not the best data set. But Outlaw is top in Sikran and Kyveza
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
YEAH WHISPYR WE GOT THIS
outlaw does more ST dps because it as a spec does more ST dps than assassination, see spreadsheet
sin rogue does not have good ST
not even, like 50% of my priority rn is school, 30% is home life, and 20% is gaming. I don't think that 20% would be anywhere near enough to help with this project.
the worst part honestly is when people just submitted a form and it said like "this works with feint"
and then you're like wait really?
"outlaw does for dps cuz it does more dps"
and they don't include a log showing it
im so confused as to your question
blizzard has programmed outlaw's ST build to do more ST damage than sin rogue's ST build
so you grab a couple people
that is the ultimate answer
i gathered that from the logs, but its just insane to me that the AOE spec is now ST and reverse with Assa
and then run into the dungeon
spend 10 min clearing to the mechanic in question
feint
doesn't work

feint scares me cuz i dont have enough brain cells to look at a log and make sure it's 100% actually feint giving me dr and not some buff from another class
Mislead me with his dog ass
sin rogue is the AOE spec
It tells you in the log if feint works. Logs are kinda glorious
yeh like I would love to make it a community check thing and anyone can submit, but I'm gonna be real, I don't trust 99% of people to actually submit good info
think of it this way - heroic kill timers are super short and outlaw has a specific damage profile. sikran and kyveza are patchwerk fights that reward constant uptime which is what outlaw is
also outlaw is deceptivly hard in any actual content, every small mistake adds up a lot on outlaw
we'd basically be stuck verifying
as soon as outlaw can't hit something its damage goes into the garbage can
i can work logs enough to get what i want out of them but once i get into "i know this info is here but idk how to get to it" i get too frustrated to figure it out
outlaw you just roll good rng on lucky coin proc time lol
you could have 2 sections, one for "anyone to submit" and another with permissions that trusted verifiers can confirm
shrimply delete anything not attached with a log
yeah, that's what we did lmao
ah
maybe add a command to moroes to delete anything from that channel that doesnt have a wclogs link in it
the good ol pics or gtfo
And get nothing 🙂
Like
That happened
Lol
wait what
Moroes had a command
we got about 50 submissions total over the course of 2 seasons, 3 of them had logs
and 2 of those logs were incorrect

like i said, this seems more like an obsession project for a youtuber and their team to dive into, like explaining range and damage dropoff in an fps
why is every single rogue streamer EU
because its EU times rn
I didn't know I was EU
do you know how hard it is to be subtle as an american?
lol
it's pretty easy to be an ass tho
I’ve never bottomed a day in my life
stream a thick SV for me PLEEEEASE
Evasion does not work on last boss in CoT brown circle, I can tell you that
I have a feral in my group. their name is "boomiediff" im confused
maple story stream when?
i usually see that the other way around, cat themed name but is boomie
our feral druids nickname in details is "Hekiliguideme" and they unironically compete with me and like 3 other dps for top dps depending on the fight
the diff is, you don't have a boomie
u guys are shrimply too based
maybe they named themselves that so they could get into pugs
bro forgot when elusiveness itself wasnt working during beta

what happened
I’m him
When you sent in jailer logs
On things that feint worked on
And we’re like 0/5
!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
pugs/keys are literally like chores. I take adhd meds to get through them and stop when the meds wear off
ew m+
im still trying to delete the memory of jailer fight from my mind
Do we have a spreadsheet of what abilities feint works on in m+?
Dog no shot
sadge

tomorrow when the servers have an extra 5 hours of extended maint 
I SWEAR THAT IS NOT MY ALT ACCOUNT
only 5? stonks
i have a theory about the reason they had the long downtime
brown shit on the ground I associate with physical damage, a lot of frontals and circle aoe can be evasioned
i only have the one account (the previous one got stolen b/c i was big dumb)
I got inv into NW 12 then kicked out and replaced by an Outlaw, I feel violated. Who pick Oultaw In NW ? 😦
surely this is the reset where NA doesn't explode right
thank god i work during the day and none of this affects me
nokhud flashbacks
No way…
HONESTLY i would take this b/c i have an exam on wednesday and need to study
they had to get all the maps from delves out of the game, had to carry them out of the server room
Nokhud big guys at the start you can evasion their shit for sure

"earth"/bludgeoning damage --> is probably physical
exactly
fuck
you mean that one character from dora?
servers got invaded by zekvir






using vanish to reset cooldowns, knowing it will soon be the last time
