as i said i do something wrong

#

im asking for help 😄

lofty dawn
#

does my mad queen's mandate do x2 damage when i have it in my deathmark? dont think it should but sometimes it does 8m instead of 4m

balmy prism
#

it scales with remaining hp, have you tested on dummy?

late surge
#

@spice surge how good is long cloak on kyveza

lofty dawn
spice surge
#

So ye its good

strange python
#

Target big mob in the pack or the mob that gets usualy least focused down if they are all same hp and importance, focus target kick mob if you're using focus kick for easier kicking while doing ur rotation,
Ambush with shadowstep if tank is rushing, make sure to tricks tank before that,
2 step Ambush the mob, garrotex2, rapturex2, usualy on 5 -8 pack mobs(to spread the bleeds) mutilate, echoing rerpimand, Crimson tempest,
The use CD's Crtimson tempest, Kingsbane, Thistle tea,
Then proceed to do your CD roration, FoK envenom, Muti Envenom (muti is to extend caustic spatter) make sure to shiv mid kingsbane idealy 7 sec left on kingsbane.
When u dont have any cds just repeat the 2nd step and do the same as if in cds, you can send shiv without kingsbane since u will have it back for next kingsbane

@past panther

#

Just timed my +9 key

#

you proud of me

late surge
#

yeah I was thinking long cloak for intermission

#

damage seems rough there

#

but now u put me on new tech

#

why didnt I know of this

subtle tundra
#

its really good for intermission

#

cause you sometimes immune 2 lines

instead of 1

late surge

that was why I wanted to take it

and i made my jewelry cause i kept on getting cucked and all I had was wrist/wep

past panther
#

also i never had 2 armor pieces

#

i could not get jewelry to save my LIFE so i wound up making a ring and neck to get rid of veteran pieces

grim jay
#

well alright, special circumstances ig

past panther
#

if its like way worse you could convince me to make another piece next spark

#

but ive seen everyone say embellishments are literally nothing compared to what they were in DF so i didn’t stress that hard about it

sorry to bother anyone with this question but im new to assa and i wanted to ask what determines the combo points received from mutilate?

rotund monolith

i watched imexiles pov on that boss and that hurts even with elusiveness+feint

normal mist
#

If you don't crit, you get 2. If one hand crits, you get 3, if both MH and OH crit, you get 4

static jolt
#

thats great to know!

normal mist
#

thats why we sometimes complaing

#

we have to muti-muti-muti-wait for energy - muti to 7cp envenom

static jolt
#

yeah

normal mist
#

to activate the capstone

static jolt
#

its also ass with er

normal mist
#

rng is a bitch

#

ER makes everything so much better tho

static jolt
#

hated er since shadowlands tbh

normal mist
#

it makes Deathstalker playable

static jolt
#

hows that?

normal mist
#

ER cps interact with mark and DN

coral ibex
#

you can activate capstone with ER cps

Er is such a fun designed ability

#

i love er

is er going away?

#

POG

to something else

coral ibex

the effect is just being put on shiv

#

ah fk

#

We lost er as a button but got snd for free and feint off gcd

#

i take it tbh

xD

royal lantern
# normal mist rip ER

its kinda funny how ER was shit the entire time

then for the first time since ER exists they made it actually play and feel good

and then remove it

quiet oar
#

with cheat

static jolt
#

is snd also going away???

sullen mural
#

basicly

#

you dont have to press it

static jolt
#

crazy

sullen mural
#

ever

#

legit unbind it forget about it removed 1 button from opener

normal mist
#

Amen

past panther
#

feels good man

#

so ER’s effect goes to shiv?

sullen mural
#

yeah

past panther
#

i didn’t read the changes in specific

sullen mural
#

but 1 charged cp less

#

i think

past panther
#

damn really doubling down on kingsbane then

normal mist
#

and lets not forget

#

on envenom buff double deep

past panther
#

yeh that’s one of the new talents right?

normal mist
#

this will change

past panther
#

basically encouraging envenom spamming

normal mist

to stack

#

like ironfur

#

basically

balmy prism
#

log question, is there a way to see overall damage taken for all pulls aggregated? Same as you would in details?

fickle light
#

does mutilate automatically turn into ambush when blindside activates?

normal mist
#

yes

pure falcon
#

what is the WA that lets u see the cd of your party member's kicks

normal mist
#

omni something iirc

#

as an addon

balmy prism
#

OmniCD or OmniCC both have an interrupt tracker

coral ibex
#

this is omniCD

#

if this is what you want

fickle light
normal mist
#

oh

#

just for you bb

fickle light
#

<3 and i don't need any fancy macroes for mutilate, it just does it with the base ability?

balmy condor
#

yes

#

it's actually impossible to cast a mutilate with blindside up

#

the game does not let you

#

even /cast Mutilate would cast ambush

fickle light
#

thank you

balmy prism
#

ah appreciate ya boss

fickle light
#

my dumbass was compared my 1 minute like to people 6 min

#

and wondering why my ambush cast was so low

static jolt
#

should i always cast envenom with 7 combo points?

balmy condor
#

only with darkest night

normal mist
#

no

balmy condor
#

we finish on 5 normally

static jolt
#

ah ty

patent blade
#

!addons

#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
balmy prism
#

Speaking of darkest night, does 7 cp become priority over getting good extends on bleeds when its up?

fickle light
#

also if i ever cast vanish without improved garrote should it always be followed with ambush in ST

hallow pelican
#

Ive always been curious about overcapping vs. undercapping CP points. which would technically be the greater DPS loss? or does it not matter because we only really overcap when we have DN up and want to max the envenom?

balmy condor
#

it's the highest prio

balmy prism
#

gotcha

hallow pelican
# balmy condor overcapping

Its definately been an adjustment to deal with 7CP. the last time I really raided on Rogue was LK and that was 5 CPs and way easier to manage

humble cradle

For fatebound is it 3+ mobs to start using fok?

I just got reccommended a Rogue m+ youtube video guide from a 2500 rating PoV and i was like "ill give it a try"

#

first 20 seconds of the video - Him mouse clicking the abilities

#

OMG how can people play like this properly

#

(not bashing the guy, im actually impressed)

zenith tree
#

Staring at archon rn and I'm curious why a vast majority of top M+ rogues are taking tricks over blackjack any insight as to why?

novel star

doesn’t actually do anything but it feels good

limber lion
subtle tundra
#

you just look at the WA, if its green you finish

royal lantern
#

tricks is like, giga ussules

#

except if you do some really niche pulls

limber lion
hallow pelican
limber lion
#

Doesn't mean people actually use the ability

coral arrow
#

what would you recommend for alter spark crafts guys? dagger 636 as first craft?

zenith tree
#

Fair enough, crazy to see that the top 100 rogues are specced like that tho according to what the site says

limber lion
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

limber lion
novel star
limber lion
#

Yes

novel star
#

so it was like brain off 2 mutilates

limber lion
#

Or 1

novel star
#

even if you get 0/4 crits

novel star
limber lion
#

But that still doesn't change the fact that you're pressing the same buttons

hallow pelican
limber lion
#

Having the ability to land on 4 CP with a single mutilate would mean that sometimes you do Muti '- finisher, sometimes you do muti - muti - finishet and sometimes you do garrote - muti - finisher

#

But where does the energy take place in that?

#

"With half the energy, you knew you were overcapped if you starved"

#

Does not make sense.

coral arrow
# limber lion !craft

hmm yeah but that message was season start recommend, right? I mean, right now for an alter (focused only for m+) is still better crafting belt/wrist intead of dagger as first when my daggers are 619? or belt/wrist is still better

limber lion
#

It's still the same...

#

Nothing has changed for embellishments

#

Sim yourself

#

If you don't have embellishments, make those

you can just craft without an embellishment

main hand ilvl is so important it’ll still be better

look man im not trying to re-litigate how LK Sin rogue worked. it was fucking 12 years ago. Im just saying FOR ME ... 5 combo points was fucking easier. If you wanna be a sweaty tryhard asshole about it, then keep talking so I can fuckin ignore you and move on with my life

What a nice change of tone.

Holy

faint vessel
#

Soo sanguine + imp garrote single target. Is prio still envenom buff uptime or prio pooling?

limber lion
#

Yeh

fallen arch
#

Wotlk was longer ago than that too btw

limber lion
#

Envenom buff

faint vessel
#

ty

novel star
#

you actually avoid sanguine

faint vessel
#

so same approach, just diff talents

#

well Im gonna try it, its simming higher and I see folks running it

novel star
#

getting into sanguine energy is a loss

faint vessel
#

I havent ran it in raid before

novel star
#

on deathstalker

limber lion
#

Gameplay is the same for every talent combo for deathstalker

#

Except single or double shiv

#

Badically

faint vessel
#

ohhh avoiding sanguine energy spot

#

got it

static jolt
#

guys does outlaw rogue still have that goofy 17th century pistol?

novel star
#

you finish early to stay below 150 energy

#

with sanguine

#

because it’s bad

faint vessel
#

got it got it, so same as normal

limber lion
novel star
#

yeah that’s called gameplay changing

novel star
#

not staying the same

limber lion
#

You just do that with every talent setup

static jolt
novel star
#

no you don’t

limber lion
#

Sang or not

novel star
#

wat

#

?

limber lion
#

Why wouldn't you

novel star
#

you exclusively do that to avoid sanguine

#

being above 150 doesn’t mean anything without sanguine

limber lion
#

It doesn't make a difference

novel star
#

yes it does

limber lion
#

Alright

clever topaz
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
novel star
#

you don’t finish early and clip your envenom buff for no reason

#

unless you’re avoiding sanguine

#

lmao

#

why would you do that

limber lion
#

If you do that with Sang

#

You maximize Envenom uptime

#

You do not clip it

#

You just activrly do not pool above 50%

#

But if Envenom is active and you're 50% energy

#

Then you jist chill and let it happen

#

And Envenom when it's in pandemic

#

Clipping is just straight up trolling

#

Regardless of talents

novel star
#

ah yeh fair

#

i’m sleepy as fk idk

limber lion
#

We're chilling

#

I'm very constipated

#

Idk what I ate

#

Gotta get some fibers in damn

novel star
#

that is still different gameplay tho MadgeJuice

#

but i was being dum

limber lion
#

What is?

novel star
#

pooling diff

limber lion
#

Why would you?

#

Just maximize Envenom uptime like you would normally

waxen oyster
#

i mean the core is still

#

optimize more env uptime

#

regardless

limber lion
#

It just doesn't punish you for pooling above 50%

shy pecan
#

Damn, someone got really upset about retail rogue math vs. rogue math from like 16 years ago, huh?

limber lion
#

But there's very little benefit to pool above 50% without sang

humble cradle

#

No it’s cool timbs

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.

without sang i've followed whispyr's advice of staying just under 150 and its worked great for parses

we had 6 in wotlk

pooling is fake news without sang ye but that’s also kind of a pointless thing to say

coral ibex
#

oh wait that was cata

like if sang didn’t change how u played at all there wouldn’t be a command ab it Hmmge

grim jay

still kinda wild it changes it into exactly the opposit

of what the talent is for

its a trade off basicly

sang is good dmg

boys should i use fan of knives for momentum of despair in a single target situation and with the single target spec so with vicious venoms?

limber lion

and the command says nothing about any pooling except sanguine

#

…?

grim jay
#

I guess

limber lion
#

Sim literally does not pool

coral ibex

that’s why it’s a sanguine command

coral ibex

you always want to be below 50% as DS

nothing else

yep

#

it is indeed a sanguine command

Think about it a bit

since pooling isn’t something you do without sanguine

@balmy condor do u clip env to stay under 50% cus i assumed yes but maybe i’m smoking cock

grim jay
#

how do you smoke cock tho

novel star
#

that’s where me and cev disagreed initially

balmy condor
#

I mean with sang you should be under 50%, without sang you don't need to be under 50% and should be maxing out envenom, but realistically envenom is already maxed and you can't do shit about it anyway so idk man

#

clip, don't clip

#

same dps

FAQ has no questions 😵‍💫. iv build fate bound and wh is death stalker, who wrong?

balmy condor

but it ends up being the same

#

cause the fucking env uptime

just lock it if it's roughly equal

cursive frost

it is simming crazy high atm

balmy condor

cause you don't want to stack it fully in either direction

sin has a baby rotation

i will get sued if i say this here

if you know what to do you know everything

havoc has to know how to do shit

you can know the right button but press it wrong

and have shit performance or die

thats crazy

novel star

i agree but i still think assa is harder

havoc requires alot of situational awareness that no other spec in the game has to deal with, because of how they need to do move to do damage

#

its extremly punishing

novel star

i have played sin since forever so some bias i guess but i legit dno how it’s hard

dawn heath

u just stand still

and do damage on rogue

dont even swap target

rarely

#

hit big mob

u keep the 5 ruptures up and then gg slam keyboard win

As someone who only plays sin when they have to it’s a brain off spec

how is it not true

waxen oyster
novel star
#

you can want to fel rush for giga dam and then completely kill yourself or your team by baiting something bad

#

sin thinks about rotation and movement, and they’re separate things

waxen oyster

meanwhile sub and outlaw have less players than survival

novel star

havoc does not get the pleasure of separating them

#

it’s still kinda easy cause it’s wow

but it’s not as easy as sin imo

woven shore
#

Zerocool that crazy fucker did a +15 or 14 what was is

marble hemlock
#

every melee spec needs situatinal awareness based on their position, predicting upcoming mechanics, and combining those 2 pieces of info with their ability to avoid said damage via defensives, movement etc. being a DH doesnt change that anymore than the difference between a dk who just tanks shit or a warrior who leaps out and charges back in does. you just have a slightly different toolkit/reaction to how you deal with said situation

woven shore
#

☠️

dawn heath
#

u are just wrong

marble hemlock
#

so, which situation does DH have to predict that no other melee needs to?

limber lion
#

Funnily enough, I don't think the apl has any mention of the 50% rule whatsoever even for Sang. It just maximizes Envenom uptime, sometimes the energy goes over 50% and sometimes it stays below it.

Feeinnt feeeinnt feeeinntt

Energy doesn't even matter

i mean it’s not about different situations coming up it’s just you have to respect them differently

since your core movement spells are also required for dps

Df s3? Eh

how u can even make those comparison is beyond me

"skull bash"

grim jay

i think the idea is that being forced to use movement spells during the rotation makes you accidentally bait frontals and swirls and shit weirdly or pause ur rotation to do so normally

How important is stealth for keys

grim jay
marble hemlock
#

part of the rotation where any other spec just has full freedom to walk the whole time or only uses movement stuff for movement
so youre agreeing that other classes also dont have full freedom to walk the whole time?

grim jay
prisma monolithBOT
#

Explanation of why stealth benefits aren't as important as you might think:

  • Garrote is roughly 10-12% of people's damage in a key, most of which is already empowered/cleaved
  • Most energy spreading will come from Rupture to maintain scent of blood, not garrote
  • Without a Trace (+1 vanish charge) only grants roughly 2 additional casts across a whole dungeon
  • While Without a Trace can allow for better vanish timings, the difference in damage provided is at most replacing a non-stealth opener with a stealth opener (you aren't necessarily getting "added" casts, just "better" casts)
  • You can argue that it "feels bad", but numerically there is very little ground to stand on, the dps simply isn't there.

Does the debuff reapply leniency mechanic also apply to improved garrote from stealth? I forget what the frame is called…

novel star
marble hemlock
#

like, i hate momentum. i think its a completely dumb gameplay style. but its part of the spec, and yeah, obviously you gotta deal with it well. other classes have other considerations that DH doesnt have, that they have to worry about and incorporate into their moment-to-moment decisionmaking process

heavy canopy

Yes!

And you lose the improved garrote damage
