But as long as those are top three its okay?
Usually ye
But like
If u have a ret and frost dk
That do mega front loaded dam in a 6
i also dont bother refreshing CT often bc packs will die a few globals later
Its kinda whatever
Ye
Had Boomkin and Aug
Dont sweat it tbh
Okay
Just making sure I start out on the right path early
And u’pl get it
as long as you're pulling like 1.2m+ overall in 7+ keys ur doing fine
So I dont have to relearn everything after I play it a lot
ye did 1.14
Ilvl?
Over time I think.
Yeye overtime
Shit I’m at 1.2-1.3 at 622 ilvl in keys. It’s terrible but I lose my marked target a lot which is super annoying and this affix this week constantly brings me out of stealth
U can play around it
What’s good dps for 12s I have no point of reference?
fix your plater profile to recolor your DSM target
i stole the mod from whispyr's plater
as they should tbh
617 ilvl
haste is basically their main stat
1.8-2.5 depending on key and aug
Whats like decent Damage overall with 610?
I did my first +9 Today and did like 1.1x Million Overall.
But People i play with are either way worse or way better overall/geared.
that's fine
If u time 12s no one is gonna say u suck?
Is this worth the lack of mastery?
Seems fine
no if you are missing mastery on any piece of gear you have to delete your rogue and start over
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
- Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
https://i.imgur.com/y548IRT.png OKAY NEW BUG
Yes, exactly
cloak resets aggro yeah
that's so fried
okay
Thanks!
that's really not good
well i think i had it happen to me
Yes
Same with ams
Which is super shit because it’ll passively proc
I want grieftorch back

I’d always take that so I can jump off stuff and not die
you play vv cause it sims the highest, i play vv cause i just copy pasted the build from wowhead and never looked back. we are not the same
i assume only with the cleanse ams
Yes
but cleanse ams seems really good in grim batol
cuz you don't really need the short ams on the last boss for the debuff

how much unbuffed haste should I have?
cus like i feel like im struggling on energy regen
!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
icic ok i need just a bit more haste, ty!
???
how did you get that from the message
do not worry about haste
haste will not fix energy
Haste feels bad
Lol
Just pull trash mobs into any boss fight and rupture it all boom energy
Lol
Sup guys having a hard time choosing between trinket or cape, i simmed all and it's seems the trinket is better but i dont even have skardyn's grace yet so i don't really know if it's worth to take trinket, the cape and the trinket both do a 0.2 increase damage at 623ivl but im trying to look for different opinions, any help please:D
Hey guys, is there a guide / list out there which summarises rogue interactions / cheeses / should do's for m+ mechanics?
I use feint well, but cloak and vanish I feel there must be plenty I don't know about

try to incorporate evasion there, since the hero talent reduce 20% magic damage too
Yeah good shout, that too - I think I moreso mean vanish and cloak though, as they give enhanced "dodge" windows / opportunities
NA gamers, did flensing knives get fixed?
your best bet is watching high key POVs from either streams or youtube vods to learn stuff like this
sim a skardyn with both the trinket maxed and the cape max upgraded. which one gives the most dps in the end.
Which you shouldn't use because the other talent gives you damage.
wut?
Practice makes perfect. Try stuff out.
allright, we should maybe not encourage obvious bug abusing 
ot but do you guys know if you need rank 3 mats to craft daggers or do rank 2 work?
Do I need a macro to shadowmeld into stealth in a M+. seems to work on a dummy but not in realtime..
!wax
- Can be pickpocketed from kobolds in e.g. The Ringing Deeps. (needs The Final Candle questline completed.)
- Only use it on one weapon. (does not stack)
taking the 2sec cloak talent gives you a removed dmg talent for some reason
could u elaborate? 👀
which is basically a ~2% dmg gain
lmao what
cus blizz coding lul
take 2sec cloak
go to a dmg dummy
activate slice and dice
and then press mutilate
Stuff that cloak works on is usually pretty clear and Vanish basically works on any targeted channel ability.
and check details for flensing knives
True, im only in the 10ish range at the moment but for some god damn reason I get performance anxiety playing with guildies that group, and fuck up so much more than I do when in pugs so somewhat limited opportunity to practise without bricking someones key
Flensing Knives used to be a talent that was supposed to be removed but it's still there.
Eh wouldn't say that, it's just playing the talents that everyone plays
There's no setup or anything
Or anything that you have to do
you just pick a talent
Will do, btw should i sim dungeon slice or 5-6 cleave target? i do both but i want to know which one is better
You just spec into it
Yes pretty much
reporting you too my uncle that works at blizzard 
Dslice is fine
does assa have similar issue with energy in raid as it does in m+? (not sure if there are talents that help a bit more). find myself spending a lot of time doing AAs on bosses just trying to make sire if thats normal
Good
Yes
That’s crazy I always wondered where flensing knives came from in details lol

I was like what the fuck is this shit
under normal circumstances you would not even touch the talent
cus like
LOL 2 sec cloak
vs bait&switch

Idk I use the 2 extra seconds so I can stand in more shit
Mechanics over rated
if they want us to do chip dmg with muti they can just add it to another hero talent
like
like i'm 100% taking evasion wall for any content i'm scared in
but like
god damn when i'm sitting on a single target boss in a key
i think about flensing
and how many times i've pressed muti

gotcha thanks. so just be prepared to have down time auto attacking = "playing for envenom uptime"
whats you guys take of elusiveness vs cheat death?
its a bug, its not intentional lol
i feel the same on queen ansurek and i need the evasion dr to survive
what slot makes the most since to prioritize for upgrading? Trinkets, off-hand, or bigger armor piece (chest, pants)?
🙂
the overall TL:DR is "raids cheat death, dungeons Elusivness"
my rogue isnt doing 10s yet sadly, but last week was hero track skardyn now hero track dead eye. if only i slipped into a few 10s
cus blizz loves to make dungeon dmg targeted/dot dmg, and without elusivness you have nothing to reduce that dmg
should we CT in ST with these talent
CMQA27SZpS4XnmFfcXRqkppuwPjZmZGmxyMAAAAAAMLw2MAAAAAA022MzwDMzYMzMLz2YMYmZmZwMzsttMmBYzsMwAWCWGmADLA
tag yourself i'm MAAAAAAML
its crazy how many results i get when i search "CT in ST" in this discord
no
without even looking at them
there is some extreme edgecase where technically it COULD be a extremely minor gain to use CT instead of Envenom once in a while cus of some hero talent interactions
!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
why does the apl do ?
why does assin use tricks of trade?
but thats so many "ifs" that its not feesible to do in reality
okok tyy
its like a 0.2% gain to CT in ST after a CTW crit
what about resounding clarity?
whats ctw
like bro just play better overall its more of a gain
clear the witness
ty
yes....? we play that
ah okay wowhead build didnt have it for the aoe one
Is it weird if i wanna macro shiv into kingsbane?
how are you gonna macro one gcd into another
Do I CT at 0 targets?
no
what the
oh it is okay
mb
yes
cus you cant do that anyway
and even if you could, its wrong
sequens but ye fair
These are the Results i guess is the Trinket at the end
I have a 606 skardyn, 626 transmitter, 619 knife, and 626 spyglass (myth track that I'm planning on maxing to 639)
I mainly do M+ and sims are saying to use the 2 passive trinkets, but should I use transmitter + spyglass instead?

transmitter + spyglass sounds good
so you can have an active trinket during every DM
can someone help me with AOE scenarios? are you applyuing rupture to every mob or what?
transmitter in key is really really really cringe i would 100% go farm a bigger skardyn's
!carnage
Indiscriminate Carnage Targetting and Swapping
TLDRMouseovers/Target swapping is optimal on 6 target, or 8+ targets, but not necessarily required
- The 2 Bleeds spread by carnage are smart and will prioritize mobs without the bleed. If everything already has bleeds it'll apply randomly
- You as the character are still casting the bleed against your target like normal, this is why people will sometimes use mouseover macros or swap targets
Swapping targets is situationally better, but can be ignored if you're having difficulties with it. Take 5 mob aoe as an example, your first garrote cast will apply to 3 targets (your target + 2 more). Regardless of if you swap or not, your second cast of garrote will hit your target, and then apply 2 more garrotes, prioritizing the mobs that do not have garrote. In very large aoe pulls (12 or more), a standard opener (garrote-garrote-rupture-rupture-garrote-garrote) will only apply 9 garrotes (3+2+2+2) and 5 ruptures (3+2) if you do not swap, losing you 3 garrotes and a rupture.
It is technically worse, but the situations in which you lose bleeds aren't very common; the lost ruptures/garrotes don't contribute much to your already flooded energy, you don't get additional scent of blood stacks, etc. The loss is purely the extra damage from those bleeds.
i've played it for a week or two and i cna't think of a single key where i didn't have to burn a cloak or literally cheat etc etc at least once
trying to pick up the buff
to say nothing of the ones that are literally unretrievable
like if you get the purple ball on the boat in dawnbreaker it can fall through the floor
if you get it on the minibossses in ara kara it can be off the edge
it's so cringe
when they spawn during the last Ara Kara boss' suck 
when what spawns
that's not the worst like they last 15 seconds i guess
but like
it's so scuffed
i mean it can also spawn the platform thingy under the boss platform
agreed, I'm still trying to get a bigger skardyn's
currently at like 35+ runs of grim
https://i.imgur.com/QPByR8s.jpeg it dropped one in the lava under the 2nd boss, and one of them in the chasm in the middle of the first zone while we were fighitng on the bridge goin to the 1st boss in this grimbatol
just lost 2 trinkets for 0 reason
luckily i got the skardyns out of it

you can position yourself to spawn the ball where you want
If you are hitting it right before the black hole in arakara then you kinda deserve whatever comes next

anyone have advice between 626 ovinax egg, 626 void reapers, and 639 harvester's? 639 harvesters sims the highest but I also read on forums that it's possibly bugged ?
Does cloak work on NW heaving wretch? I usually use feint but I tried using shadow cloak on a 9 and almost got 1 shot
Oh. So you have to time it just right. I probably cast it too early
Ok

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
does anyone know which tier piece is worse to have than non tier gear or is all 5 better than what we can get
Guys, Shoud i Craft my other 636 dagger if im going to be focused on M+ only?
technically chest
ah okay thank you
yeah for sure
hero track skardyn's in vault
!fatebound
Never craft offhand unless you are full myth track

i was just wondering bc i know some classes are like ew this piece is trash compared to actual dung gear
Sin likes all of them
thank you guys for replying fast and politely too
good point
But realistically take whatever you have thats the highest ilvl
But its all mix and match ye
ye i don't expect to mythic raid any soon so i was thinking if it was worth
Only if you have no crafted
And no myth track
yeah assas has pretty balanced stats so we're not super bothered with getting anything
oh so if i have a dagger 636 already and well i don't have a myth track yet i should just wait for a dagger in vautl?
Basically
Its the "worst" slot like eleem said
demonic
i start my +14 mist
and my games starts lagging immediately
Watch test and millions of other World of Warcraft videos on Medal, the largest Game Clip Platform.
wtf is this
i got anxiety watching this
I have 1% verse
the crazy part
i had this lag the whole run
its just that easy
only if you let me borrow your beach house and the lambo
What slots should you prioritize for crests upgrades? Trinkets, off-hand weapon, or main armor slot (chest/legs)? or something else
yeah but you have 100% stu so it's k
Let’s send each other manifestation energy for skardyns grace in vault tomorrow ✨💫☄️
wdym? i already got it
hey in m+ if a tank is chain pulling and im not getting restealths is it better to tab target afew mobs and rupture/garrote or just dot up main target and caustic cleave off it ?
I just get my rups up
!cloak
and then go to splat
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
can someone tell me if i am doing right ? it was a +12 mist and i play assa for 4 days now so idk much yet. Is the sanguine blades dmg too low? i saw whispyr saying smth its like 10% of ur overall dmg or maybe i just remember that wrong idk
seems fine
I am on my 66th run GB for the trinket. in 66 runs I saw it 2 times drop even tho I saw gale dropping like 20+ times....i am kinda getting annoyed tbh
@grim jay which one do I take bro? you were saying crystal is bait earlier
Wings bro so much rarer
Anyone got the def cd immunity spreadsheet command?
Been a while
hey guys, thinking of switching from outlaw to assa. is the switch complicated to learn?
we excited for those anniversary patch changes? looks like its gonna be super fun to make KB damage increase go up super fast
I personally think if you can get the opener down you are pretty golden, sin is pretty simple for the most part imo! Whispyrs youtube videos makes learning it from scratch super easy too!
that's good to hear, it's hard for me to test it properly cus I only have 1 dagger that I crafted (outlaw off spec daggers so I never get any)
your CT to caustic ration looks off
caustic should be way above CT
not way off but slightly off
@dawn heath thx mate, appreciate it. I will look into that
i've noticed when casual is playing he actually takes awhile before he sends his CT
its probably like double garrote double rupture envenom main target then get cps then CT
but that kinda depends
if u have a big prio target that u want to kill
if all mobs have the same amount of hp
or the pull count is really big then CT takes higher prio
1 more question when there are mobs that will die fast for example in GB the last mobs before endboss with like 12-14 million hp each, i cant do shit. I am with a ret and he just annihilates them in seconds. Is that just the way it is or is there a possibility for me to get some aoe dmg too before they die?
Probably wants to get DSM up faster if there’s a big target
Tricks the ret
😄 😄 😄 😄
Then he’ll die and you can do damage
thats actually 9999 IQ
Bois, how do we genuinely feel about spyglass?
Is this a spyglass angle and go get a better back or just take the back and pretend I never saw it
Nothing else in that vault is particularly good
you FoK even single target when you have proc of clear the witness
yeah I get that, but I meant FoK as a builder

Saw the discussion about wrathstone earlier… well my wrathstone is the hero track one from turning in the ulduar raid quest. Is the best way to sim it capturing the simc data and doing top gear
yes, 2+ and same with CT
word, ty king
What is the bis trinket combo ? i have sacbrood, skardyns, spyglass and mandate
I currently use a champion 6/8 skardyn’s grace and 8/8 champion void reaper’s contract
honestly kinda depends on the gear that you have
is IronWire immune the same list as stun immune?
With crafted dagger alreadyu would you go legs or dagger? I am having trouble simming it
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i’m asking, I don’t believe we’d take it over the standard good trinkets but idk
Ya honestly that’s probably right
Yes but if you have crafted it caps at 636 and myth max is 639
So if you’re running ascension you’d keep crafted in offhand and still want the ilvl in main hand cause that’s your biggest upgrade 99% of the time
Do you have myth main hand and do you raid mythic
Myth Skards or Heroic Rare cloak? Sims say cloak but it is bis trinket myth track
ooh thats a tough one
cloak is .4% more
I do the 2nd boss so I have a shot at dagger I guess. But ihave 636 mainhand
ty whis
it's pretty okay, you just can't perma move or perma stand still
as long as it's kinda balanced its good
If you kill the second boss I’d take what sims higher but maybe sim the dagger at max upgrade
if no one else wants it next time it drops i’ll try it I guess lol
Isn’t spyglass our bis?
sometimes
yo whispyr can you scroll up and tell me if im being an idiot for being confused on what to take in this vault?
the tooltip is just scary to me
I don’t want to think about how much i’m moving or standing still
do we actually want to use all 5 set pieces? if not whatst the off-piece on assa?
Chest
Ya that is kind of insane
isn't spyglass literally the only usable piece what's the issue
That is good enough for me
Thanks man
The back is never gonna be taken for rashanan back
Because the second you get rashanan ur chuckling on that piece
Fair enough
Is chest the tier piece we don’t want
Okay cool, I got myth track tier chest in vault
Until ur like GIGA optimizing 639 stuff sims work just fine so if mythic chest is an option send er bud
does sudden demise not work properly when there are 2?
for m+ build, is there anything special or secret for single target fights? I am averaging like 800k. if perfectly pooling energy, is there a huge increase?
Only one rogue gets it
And it’s usually the higher ilvl
well it's hard for both rogues to instantly kill the target
it can only die once
well it should die twice
tell that to john sekiro
I lost by like 40k overall to another rogue and it was cause they got all the sudden demise. Otherwise I woulda smashed
yeah he got 86 mil I got 30
Who had the bigger MH
wanna see mine?
Hell yeah sister

Nice
my ego is hurt
I grab ring, agreed?
How good is cloak?
ok teach me how to make sure I get SD
yea cloak looks good too, so not sure
Brother I’ve run 2 runs with whispyr and I got 0.0% sd dam
Granted minimum I was 10 ilvl lower 🙂
lol
I'm 628
Ring good

Yeah I’m 617
20 even
ty friends
maybe 30
Holy
I think quake is reasonably like 45 ilvl lower
And I was like 602
Perhaps even like 60

honestly like I'm 3 levels higher than him
True
Dude hasn’t even gotten the achievement for dinging 80
too heavy for you king
would you guys use this scuffed ass trinket on pull or before cd window
True and real
Before cd window
hey all struggling between these two, i think trinkets the choice but what do yall think
Milk that buff
heavy is the head that wears the crown 😩
word thats what I thought but it feels like ass with the cast time
I think we sim and take higher gain

I'd probably take ring tbh, myth ansurek ring probably a bit away seeing the 1 myth vault slot

from the screen to the ring to the pen
Grim Batol prison over, only took 30 runs 😵💫
wait that's so free
When bro says he’s what’s for dinner
yeah were on brood right now, but i was also considering that too, as theres other really good trinkets and basically skardyns + whatever highest ilvl trinket i have i think XD. but am simming now too
Real
They invited me
This is the face of a man 80 ilvls higher than you
i made the mistake of getting my skardyn from a +6 and not a +7 so i'm not released from prison yet
Whispyr’s sd when it sees it’s opponent is MakeitQuake
yeh we killed brood yesterday, I'd personally take the ring cause heroic ring SURELY goes to me soon

fingers crossed XD wait calling it now you get it in weekly box yeah?? 😄
Whispyr may say I suck… he may call me a loser
But at least I have something he does not
626 Skardyn’s

3 bracers
Ain’t no way
It’s okay man
was uh
huge
I also took a socket this week
Same

Honestly that’s a skill issue
Ah edging him I see
If I were blizzard I wouldn't play this game
Only 623
He’s got to upgrade it himself, I’m not out here trying to give freebies

I know someone said the reason, but I can't find it in chat now.
I have transmitter, void reapers, and skardyns, but why does transmitter/contract sim higher than with skardyns?
Whatever you say John blizzard
Literally me last week 😦 3 myth slots, full heroic, full delves lmao, couldn’t even get a myth tier piece
wait, i thought you are working for them and their evil schemes to nerf popular things
yo guys im doing mythic prog, am i total POS for not trading skardyns with leech?
Mine was a choice between myth transmitter, skardyn grace or rare cloak from rashaan

Do you know the person
Are you guys doing open rolls?

Skardyns is dungeon
O
Then fkem
Enjoy
thanks i feel better
Pugs are just advanced NPC programmed to help you get loot
If I ran with whispyr again and I got skardyns with leech
And didn’t trade
I’d be an asshole
Randos?
Miss me w that
That would also be pretty lengendary tho
This is it surely
no you dont
Nah it’s a game we go agane
ye so
Next time we fill vault with tens 
do i take the hero grace to replace my champ grace
(I’ll never)
Wtf even is worm
Mad
mf having parasites

do u guys play caustic spatter on heroic ulgrax and bloodbound horror? doesnt seem very worth to me
i go full st for all of the herioc bosses besides court
adds die WAY WAY WAY too fast in my grp

wld a hero track bis wep be better than a crafted?
no
BiS lists are not helpful towards gearing yourself. In order for BiS items to truly be BiS, all items in the list have to be obtained at that level exactly, or else it doesn't make sense. Missing a socket for example would shift your stats slightly. You should always compare your gear through top gear or droptimizer instead.
Pre-raid or Pre-season BiS is especially not helpful, and we do not have any of them. These are absolute meaningless bait for gear that you will be replacing the moment the season comes out. Use Top Gear/Droptimizer to compare against your character
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
- Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
why not?
hero track?
Because you can craft to 636
are we talking 626 or 619 hero track vs 636 crafted?
no embellishment? and you can pick the stats on the crafted item
the stats are directly tied to the item level and hero is strictly inferior ilvl
more context the OH is alrdy crafted with embelish
recraft it with a gilded crest
So wouldn’t you just upgrade that to a 636
u right
invite me insated
i need
for trinket :berarsmile:
I am gonna nap like a baby, knowing that my vault in 5 hours will contain a Skardyn's Grace
This is not copium

No more Grim Batols after reset
The mark?
The DK we were running with got a myth mark today In vault
pantaloons
poggies
Are you ok king
gonna go count my grims
count these
I've seeen these pants 5 times
imagine running an ara kara +8 and listing it as a crest farm and you literally dont know how the suck mech on the last boss works and grief so hard you make the healer leave

can't make it up folks
I hate that damn boss
I need to watch some game play…that whole dungeon is great minus that one
i mean doing the puddle is easy and the right way
but if you ever cant find a puddle, just wait until the end of the suck and step out
When I'm not in combat and in stealth, if I come out of stealth there's a short delay before I can restealth. What's the reason for this delay, it feels longer than a gcd?
anyone know how to sim with wax on raidbots?
it's over, 38 runs only

Stealth can break from:
- Evoker legendary buff expiring and bouncing back to the Evoker.
- Ominous Chromatic Essence trinket on buff gain
- Voice of the Silent Star when wearing it yourself
- Misterweaver soothing mist when talented into Unison
- Blossom of Amirdrassil (trinket) initial hot dropping/spreading

changing your "stance" aka stealth has a 2s cd
its the same reason you can't accidentally unstealth by spamming the keybind
did something change for raidbots i am simming lower than last week w same gear/talents
at how many targets do we usually stealth?
2+ or 3+?
link the sims
any of you using wax

down horrendous bro
i'm at the 606 skar too though
Void Contract in GV though, probably going with neck I think. Just need to spam AK and GB like a fiend
Worse part was I was running AK with a guildie and we did that place because I said, and I quote, "I need the trinket from there". We finish dungeon, he says "here's the trinket!" and hands me the Edict.
do we know yet if wax is good again or am i trolling?
Sim is telling me to take the 619 Contract, I'm worried
link the sim king
contract is really good if you're playing outlaw as well
i mean based on what im seeing your other trinkets sucks
What is so worrisome
Isn’t that a tank trinket
You might be able to get a better trinket from random heroics
I only have 1 of the Bludgeons
ideally you're running a dagger in the offhand
contract looks like your best trinket for sure its not a weird sim lol
honestly looks like a contract angle
stats on other GV stuff aren't great
plus, you can multi spec with confidence if you're into that
The concern was more from picking it over something like the neck, with the idea that I should really be trying to get Grace & Sacbrood
sacbrood isn't even that good
Spyglass then?
so why do we FoK at 2 targets instead of Mut? seems like I generate more with Mut on 2 targets tbh
you can get anything in that second slot
void reaper, spyglass, sacbrood, ritual knife, mandate
But Grace for sure is superb
you need that or transmitter yeah
Transmitter dropped when Heroic Regicide dropped, only got the dagger because I was the only Rogue. Monk got the trinket.

Reclear today, and we easily get to Queen and with the nerfs we should be getting AotC this week.
Just gotta channel my good luck

Would Regicide be the better OH for Outlaw or the Kukri
apparently it's fok on 3 or more, or 2+ with
Got these 2 when I picked up the trinket
imperfect ascendancy serum is fine too if you have all heroic track options right?
Do you think in 11.0.5 we’ll still take thistle tea over subterfuge?
yeah it is pretty good on equal ilvl
ty, for spending the gilded crests...should we focus on trinkets, off-hand weap, or main armor slot (chest/legs) first?
ascendancy serum is still broken in simcraft and consumes its own global
do not use gilded on offhand
Trinkets main armor
Minor armor then offhand
trinkets and chest/legs are pretty similar, might just be a sim thing if you think they're permanent slots
did someone just get automodded
i wouldn't take dagger because it'll drop off the boss and nobody else wants it
Nah I deleted soz, accidentally sent early haha
My vault has mythic dagger or heroic queen ring. Which do you reckon would be better long term factoring in that I probably wont kill mythic queen?
yeah the way i see that is that every single player in your guild wants a queen ring, but you are the only person who wants a bloodbound dagger
its not bloodbound dagger, its from m+
oh yeah same thing
so i could potentially get bloodbound too
!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
zero competition on that slot either way vs maximum competition
yeah that makes sense
would the heroic queen ring sim better than a mythic ring without the effect tho?
also, i already have the normal queen ring. idk if that changes my decision as well
do we only send shivs for kingsbane or do we send a dry one in between?
you need both up when KB comes off CD tho
with only one shiv you do one kingsbane one in between
with two shivs you send both in kingsbane
that is a question for gear compare https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/gfTHVu5rF3cuSXyG4bMyTt
heroic queen ring > crafted=ovinax
on single target
might be different on dslice
or with different gear
thats a crazy difference actually
considering ilvl
might have to go ring then
yeah 0.4 is bigger than i expected
ilvl diff feels bad but yeah considering no one else is getting the agi daggers, it shouldnt matter
praying for bloodbound dagger tonight
Quick question, for first death mark after opener, do you wait for vanish when playing imp garrotte or do you send vanish midway through
The rest would sort of sync so just that one that matters really
I use it to refresh my first garrote during the Deathmark window
And now I also have a quick question lol- Skardyn's Grace is clearly on like every high parsing sin rogue in raid. But on sims it's not liking it as much, What gives?
Mental tax on transmitter is too high sometimes
yea it keeps telling me to put my transmitter on
Skardyns you just macro and your chillin
is there a way to avoid getting multiple stacks of void rush in city of threads?
i got 100-0'd in less than a second with 2 stacks it looks like
with feint rolling
do you have 5 people in range
it divides the stacks onto the party
you'll get more with less people
okay, so if you have 5 in range, you should only ever have 1?
er maybe im misreading details - does this mean you have two stacks - referring to the x2 debuff part
cause right above that in grey it says this
is this exciting? or my feelscraft getting the better of me
yeah it was hitting 4-5 people for 810-840k premitigation in my log
i think 2 stacks means someone was out of range
does the x2 in purple mean 2 stacks?
cuase the grey screenshot has a x1
and that was like right above the purple line
did you take multiple physical hits? it's like 5 physical hits that each apply a shadow dot
what are realistic numbers of uptime for bleeds and envenom on queen?
how can you see this in details?
no idea how many hits i took
You can filter by phase if that helps, should be 95+% in p1 i1 and p3
my guild has 2 rogues, are there any bosses that one of us should swap to numbing poison? broodtwister?
Idk i forget what details can and can’t show, i just log my runs so i can check it after
so this is what i see in the log
i took 3 void rush hits and died in 1s
for a total of like 6.25 mil in those 3 hits
Didn't know that was possible, thanks
10 min kill RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
so in wcl this is what I'm seeing
Two phys hits and a dot tick, someone must have been out of range for you to take two hits
Numerically as good as skardyns plus a headache
because it has conditions?
You have to chase shit around lol
you know what that makes sense lol - our mage had died and was heading back, so our tank pulled before he got there
so ig lesson is you cant really pull that pack without everyone present
we had to chase balls last xpac anyways
Hi, I'm kinda torn between 4 of my trinkets to use. All of them at 619: spyglass, mad queen, void contract and shadow ritual knife. Maybe someone could help me out? I'm taking spyglass + knife for m+ and mad queen+void contract for raid.
Yeah you can probably only live it if people are ready
hey guys
every piece of gear i get is mastery so might as well go Sin
nice to meet ya
i didn't have a health potion available - i'd used one 3 minutes earlier, didn't have crimson vial up and had used cloak 1.5 minutes earlier so it stillw asn't up
nothing else I could do even if i was more "ready"
Call for SLT because it won’t be needed until the boss
ig i could've evasioned for the small magic dr but i dont think that would've done anything against this
its not that small, maybe 20% dr woulda been enough to slow it down and get healed
how can you tell there were 2 phys hit and 1 dot tick from that screenshot btw?
Colors
you're right though - i went to the dmg taken at the exact moment that phase rush went out and everyone took dmg except the mage
!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
and obv my dmg taken was like double everyone elses
so i just took a second hit cuase the mage wasn't in range
the mines rewarded me
what ritual do we need to do for a grace 😦
@visual sun we are looting mines of moria i guess
is the blue/purple-ish color a dot and the beige-ish color a phys hit?
Well…see what happed was
sry for dumb question, is x2 radiant better for m+? also what about raids
can you immune the physical hit from void rush with evasion?
Has anyone tested what nexts weeks changes feel like ? is it a net buff for us?
my man
2x radiant is bis for m+ and also not bad for raid
sometimes could be better depending on the uptime on it
windows button hold down shift and press S and the same time, win sh+s
thanks!
if my raid has 2 rogues, should one of us swap to numbing poison?
severed strands buff still says 0% after handing in the quest?
Have you checked while in a raid setting?
Some in my guild have said the same but didn’t check their buffs while in raid
Wait your guild has 2 rogues? Ain’t think guilds had 2 rogues lol…no one wants to play rogue with me in my guild
btw you guys running caustic on first boss?
Strange? I don’t know then? So…should we not turn the quest in? Sorry I wasn’t been a smartass or anything , I honestly don’t know, some said it didn’t show and some said it did show, please forgive me
I guess it's not until next week
but I don't know how
cuz the wowhead post I saw said it should have been this week
idk I could be blind
Right…that’s why I hardly ever worry about making weapons…I usually always get mine within the first week or two of heroic week lol
it just started this week, afaik you only get 16 next week
I got 8 last week 8 this week
Same
and just handed in the quest..
it should show on the summary page
click player -> summary tab -> hover over their weapon equipment
sharpened + 469 attack power
np
venoms still bugged?
like the reason people werent playing it
Don’t tell him bro
sorry pulled silken. people were playing shrouded instead of venoms a couple weeks ago for a reason that i thought i remembered being a bug with venoms in some sort of way.

no
it just sims higher for them
oh is there a reason for that
lol
What do i need to do to loot a skardyns in my vault
fix the imaginary venoms bug
Any gems y'all don't sim? Says I have too many selected at the moment.
could just drop vers
will there by any point to going tea after 11.0.5 now that you cant control it and it auto procs
will 2 pts lethality just be the move
would it be worth using both transmitter and skardyn's grace in m+?
I feel like you could save skardyn's for the 30% window during post-deathmark maybe?
not even remotely
you can control it though
transmitter/spyglass then?
that's fine yeah
ty
Transmitter 🛌
Just lost mark on Silken Court and hit the wrong button when I vanished. AMA
!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.
I don't quite understand what causes being under 50% energy to be a good thing
having sanguine proc outside cooldowns is a waste of energy
When you've got Darkest Night do you build to 7 to ensure you're using the proc or let it happen naturally?
Yes
Immediately build to 7
Thank you
thrombotic is 4pc
ahh got it
dawnthread you can just see from logs or details
details is buff uptime?
it can yeah
hmm i dont see it in buff uptime for some reason
how does raidbots sim the trinket from Broodtwister? do I need to stand still and worry about managing the stacks? or can I just do my little melee wiggle dance?
it averages more on the moving side I think
randomly goes up and down around 15/15
but as long as you're not above 20 stacks on any of them
it's fine
can look at it in logs then under buffs then idk
speaking of uptime, whats a good baseline envenom buff uptime to look for?
We want to just send 5 rupture 1 garrote on packs where we don’t get restealth then CT or CT first
my friends details shows dawnthread but mine doesnt show it for some reason
anything around like 85 is probably fine
I have a silly question I think.
Why do we shiv before kingsbane? I get the death mark doubles the application - right? But don’t you want the application count to be high during kingsbane? So why not do both shivs after kingsbane?
I realize there’s something important missing or misunderstood. So any help would be great.
CT first 100%
kingsbane does instant damage
Any tip on arakara 1st boss with spider adds? Always seem like in pugs we have a tough time killing them and getting webs everywhere.
and shiv lasts 8 seconds
kingsbane stacking and dot ticking happens at the same time
you dont stack kb and then get a dot based on stacks
the dot ramps while its dealing damage
so 100% shiv coverage is wat matters
also instant damage yea
kingsbane is 14 seconds, shiv is 8
so shiv -> kb is still covering the whole kb
and you get to buff the instant damage
and it's just fine
Does evasion work for brood parasites?
You guys run the shiv talent that gives 2 charges in M+ or just ST
you're the goat, ty
the recommended hybrid m+ build has only 1 charge
No
Okay I think that makes sense. There’s just something about that was/is tripping me up. Appreciate the answers
you're a big willem dafoe fan eh?
