last week, on bloodbound mythic, i had 92% uptime on 2 set and 65% uptime on 4 set, this week, on bloodbound mythicn, i had 97% uptime on 2 set and 96% uptime on 4 set

We go far > left > right

#

We also “progged” ovinax last week (3 shot it)

#

One day a week raiding is weird

#

This is what we do

oak eagle
#

so where did you end

spice spire
#

Okay so you end on worm side

#

Slight pad to be had

#

did they even get to the worm end?

slim pebble
spice spire
#

Probably not

#

Even we don’t make it to our last side

dark current
#

so is ass still better than outlaw in raids?

spice spire
#

Loaded question

#

Are you better on ass or outlaw

dark current
#

i can be best at whatever is meta

past panther
#

assassin is punished less by downtime

dark current
#

nice

past panther
#

outlaw lows are worse than tank dps sometimes and their highs are pretty big

#

i'll just stick with ass then ty

yeah i sure suffer as sin when im pooling energy and have to step out

Using my brain is difficult as outlaw

#

I can recognize that

ya if u want meta just roll a fire mage

#

Yeah because you can waste 600000 energy and be fine

past panther
#

normal filler? It doesn’t feel as bad as outlaw or sub

spice spire
#

Meanwhile you waste 200 energy across the fight as sin and u inted

past panther
#

mathematically maybe im wrong

#

but feel when sub and outlaw are so spammy? it feels so much worse

like i said, mathematically im prob wrong

#

but sheer feel, at least for casual me, it feels like i lose a lot more momentum and pacing as sub/otl vs sin

#

Does it suck regardless? Yes

I mean I’m not gonna argue that there’s pain in downtime for outlaw but that’s what the gun is for bucko

im spooned on raid and i think i only had to do like 2-3 targeted mechanics in 5 bosses last night

we had/have so many people that say with a 100% straight face "assa not punished for downtimes cus dots"

as if our bleeds do 99% of our dmg, and as if assa is not a envenom spam Simulator

And as if AAs arent 10% of our dps

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
  • Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
  • Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results

they have depths enchanted probably because they are raiding mythic

cba to swap enchants every time they want to do keys

Radiant authority beats depths every time there are two targets, on single target they are similar

depths also has a lot of ramp time, m+ bosses are only like 3 minute fights

Hey I got a question there are moments in ST where I am out of energy and I'm just sitting there auto attacking or mutilating when I got energy is this just normal or am I doing something wrong?

slim pebble
#

!design

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

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

!pooling

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

Ok but its atleast up there

ripe rapids
#

Also outside of a IC, you can really only keep garrote up on 2 targets right? And for rupture should that be on all targets, after your IC if they live that long?

grim jay
#

No spread

#

With garrote

#

5 targets for rupture

ripe rapids
#

and the rupture thing is because of Scent of Blood right?

spice spire
#

I mean you can spread garrote because it’s technically more energy but if you’re swimming in it already and the mental is too high

#

Yeah just hit mt

#

Difficulty should be the challenges not the play itself

Kicks, avoiding etc

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.

i don’t think so

cause it’s text is ‘chance’ isn’t it?

coarse mason

Ascension specifically says it's nerubian, dawnthread doesn't have that tag

#

And writhing says it doubles your nerubian embellishments

#

So he'd want to recraft that if he keeps his dawnthread for sure

Could sim a dagger to see if you can get a better stat combo if you can afford the craft

I’m sure this has been asked a billion times, but when you have darkest night proc up outside of echoing reprimand, is it worth it to immediately mutilate until max combo points or let it naturally come? Like if if I have 6 points, should I send a mutilate to hit 7 or envenom and hope I fill my combo points next go around

spice spire
spice spire
prisma monolithBOT
#

Preferences currently are wrist/belt/dagger for embellishment depending on what you go for

Darkmoon Sigil Ascension (dagger) + Writhing Banding (wrist) is generally "the best" in raid, but has ramp time and is worse in m+
2x Dawnthread (wrist/belt) is generally the best in m+ and not far behind of Ascencion/Banding for raids. Equal in single target at 80% uptime

Craft a dagger if you're unlucky and don't get one and are down bad and crying about your pathetic little 580 main hand dagger. Put Ascencion on it
If you have a big dagger in your main hand already read the above and pick whatever you prefer

  • 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.

tag whispyr and ask

#

Does rupture spread to 2 xtra targets if you don’t do it from stealthed? Wouldn’t you be using more globals casting rupture to spread 1 by 1

spice spire
#

Yes

#

But in the grand scheme of things

#

It’s less impactful

#

If your tanks kills everything but one thing at 2% then pulls

#

Like yeah it’s trolling

But if he is just an ape and GIGA pulls

#

It’s a gain

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.
