She beamed me till I flapped
@spice spire Ty papa quake
ahleas log review
She kidney ruptured me so I blinded her with my atrophic poison
Dude cheap shot me so I envenom the crackshot til the scent of blood
i gave her my bubbling wax between the eyes and then vanished
i feel like assa just does more dmg in keys than frost on like 99% of routes... dont really start getting beat by frost until you're doin biggg ol' pulls
looks like some of the BRD loot is out, theres 3 daggers so far lol
Does the queens trinket interact for assa with lingering?
nah

where did you see it
these are my sentiments
Sick my boss is out of the building... Time to get back to my GB prison
“Sick I’m out of work prison time to go to m+ prison”
Mental Illinois mf
Its a simple life
Mandate is shadow damage. Lingering for assassination is nature not shadow.
ty
Should I be running Dashing Scoundrel or Shrouded Suffocation in raid? I noticed in logs its about a 60/40 split of people using either?
I've had terrible luck with trinket drops, would getting the PvP trinkets be worthwhile as a stop gap? Currently have detachable fang and bottled flaywing both max upgraded to 606
Guys a priest on my normal clear trolled me :C
i was already being babysitted by one priest 😦

@limber lion (yes its normal, quest done :3) IT WAS LOOKING SO GOOD
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH

You’re sus
almost there!
next week only 99's surely
Oh yeah they don't matter, but if i gotta kill bosses nontheless, i might as well punch them in the nuts

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
i was at 1.4

hey guys, question for you - I know we scale really well with MH weapon damage; if I was saving 90 gilded for my first enchanted crest, would you use it to craft a non-embellished third crafted item as a dagger, or invest in my dawnthread embellished other items?
current weapons are 626 and 619
Eh that's very much for you to decide depending on your situation/raiding/whatever. I would personally just get a MH weapon with Ascension
Really hard to say what's the correct play, really depends on stuff like your other slots and what you get from vault and whatever
i sorta do a lot of m+ and raiding, is ascension much better than double dawnthread?
Ascension is better for raiding, Dawnthread for mythic+
#DeletePI
But mythic+ is an environment with so many variables where you can do one run and do 3m overall and then do another run and do 1.2m overall
And the choice of embellishment doesn't really change anything there
I personally always gear towards raid first
whats the difference in raid between double dawn and ascension (and i assume the multiplier embellishment) in a raid env? is it that big?
It's not that big, no
Ascension barely edges out the win
Just gotta sim it and see
the run you do 3m overall in is gonna have a significant difference in pull types though so you can prep for that... aint nobody doin 3m in a standard pug route
dude that looks like my cat
prob need big boi pulls and an aug tbh to actually break 3k
Yes like said, mythic+ is a massive environment with millions of variables
How big does the tank pull, how do other people use their cds, route, etc
It all plays a role in how much damage you do overall
yeah absolutely
!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
@limber lion you still blastin' M+? your name rings a bell from back in the day
what being red does to a man
Nah, I'm retired. Just do some casual hours here and there.
I was also a giga raid andy back in the day
He's still green in our hearts
Do yous thistle/shiv after all dots are rolling or befoee
the shit this man did with assa when outlaw was king... would be havin' a field day in today's M+
any1 got a WA for when ur getting a res? swear in pugs half the time is wasted on the ground cos u dnt get it
Yep 8.3 was a blast in mythic+
https://raider.io/characters/us/area-52/Freshjawn can anyone help me with what I'm doing wrong
Can't hit 5-6m on big pulls with my dk friend. Think im doing cds wrong
@north mica what key# whats ur rotation like
Just saying cant hit 5mil doesnt help
socket :)
was wondering either socket either cloak until super rare or trinket since probably biggest upgrade once maxed
but all are temporary while socket is permanent
We're comfortable in 10s atm. Overall I close around 1.4xM-1.6xM Ambush,garrote,rupture, tempest. Thistle, shiv, mutilate,fok, evis, deathmark/cds on big mob. Keeping rupture and tempest up while evising
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
@north mica so you doing 3 bleeds only
I don’t have evis 
instead of 5 or more
I'll rupture and garrote the furthest pack in the opener to get the from stealth bonus
That should be 6
Target and splash to 2 others
Damn I want those parses
is there any reason the sims stack 1 gem when using the culminating gem?
i was under the impression you use 1 of each gem , then stack either mastery haste, or crit haste for ST
but i just have 6 mastery haste gems showing in the sim
I haven't logged on normal, but I don't think I can consistently reach above 90
there are no mechanics in normal, you JUST pump
sim it, but i would kill for the ring 😄
champion track ring*
you can always cata off pieces into tier
Are you going to kill mythic bosses ?
If no, probably Tier pieces
But sim it is also always good
kk thanks
Liking conceptually the idea of Dracthyr rogue. Playing it like a DnD character, stealth being like a chameleon using camuflage. And the poison on the weapons being self harvested from their own venomous fangs

If we stacked haste would our bleeds finish duration in 1 second that would be OP ooooooo


eyo
how's my man making threads
what a powerful red man
Hax
she kidney my rupture till i blinded my atrophic
thank you thank you I'll be here all week
Are you trying it on the ptr? I'm still not sure if I want to go dracthyr or not, I've always played human but this is really cool to me, I really like the idea
hey guys, does anyone know if you can safely vanish sticky webs at mythic ovi'nax without killing ur mates? or do i need to wait until everyone is out of range?
in theory wait
in reality your dk will just spam AMS anyway instead of running out and roots 5people

aight, ty
my very first DnD character was actually an Dragonborn Rogue
hmmmm
are you gonna do it?
dracthyr?
yeah
I forgot about that
I think in dungeons where envenom/caustic splatter are super similar dmg or evenom even higher - assa just better than frost dk (obv assuming its not bc you're trolling and just not keeping cp uptime)
Tryan are you still a vulpera
Because if so what’s the diff no vulpera has good looking transmog
like no way a frost dk is beating an assa rogue in dungeons like mist/grim/siege (or if they are its gotta be a fuckin nasssty ass dk)
what
i don't think anything is beating frost dk in any dungeon
xD
what
Pretty sure frost is tops rn
ive yet to see a truly blaster dk tbh but im not doin keys where the truly blaster dk's are still at
not for like 2years now
and ofc there is mate lol
And you don’t wanna be in visage form cause it’s stinky elf eh?
and, you know
dk is immortal
rogue just dies lol
dk does more dmg, more burst and also is unkillable lol
these are the kinda dk's i see in 12s lol
From a main BDK, DK is almost immortal
Mf playing the squishiest dk atm
why tf would i play the dragon race and then play a fucking blood elf
(For all intents and purposes this is a joke)
BEs best?
its just hilarious that frost dk has roughly ~20% passive magic dr
like, bruh

@north mica
we're squish if you dont press your buttons. but between feint/cloak/evasion+bait/switch crimson phial we can live pretty well but sometimes you do run out
I mean, DK is meant to be the anti magic class. Makes kinda sense. Also I find stupidly broken cloak of shadows 😂
also if you're not pressing your buttosn at the right time we'll feel squishier than i think you could be
Yeah I get it
Wait until you hear about supercloak pal
tbh thats on blizz having some Peak spaget coding
First second of cloak is like mega invuln.
Even stuff that cloak doesn’t immune will just randomly work
I was gonna play assa rogue this xpac but when I gathered with my friends and we were 4 DPS, well, I had to return to my root. I loved being able to move for once
Because 🍝
Does bdk take salayn? Or rider
Neither, that's for DPS


0 movement speed bdk is back baby
Whis you here
Also, how's the deathstalker gameplay now that echoing works with it
Didn't get to play it
i think if you're lsoing to dk's in like 12s where the shitter dk's live... you prob just aren't a blaster assa M+'er tbh. all the competant dk's are prob doin like 13-14s by now - just have to do bigger keys and you'll find em... they do absurd dmg
Good shit actually
Still bugged in reapplications
Like getting a mark in during dn
But outside of that it’s good
Also bdk has sanlayn wtf.
They just reaper instead
about the echoing part...
In a week it’s 
What % energy should I pool to before shiv windows
none cus you use tea
You sure
The good spaghetti blizz code. Gotta love it
Anyone else just been disconnected?
Fair
Since I am here, wanna ask. How much time should I wait for rogues to re-stealth between pulls?
So there’s no need to do it if I can keep the envenom buff
zero
chain pull normally
!restealth
Explanation of why stealth benefits aren't as important as you might think:
- Garrote is roughly 10-12% of people's damage in a key, most of which is already empowered/cleaved
- Most energy spreading will come from Rupture to maintain scent of blood, not garrote
- Without a Trace (+1 vanish charge) only grants roughly 2 additional casts across a whole dungeon
- While Without a Trace can allow for better vanish timings, the difference in damage provided is at most replacing a non-stealth opener with a stealth opener (you aren't necessarily getting "added" casts, just "better" casts)
- You can argue that it "feels bad", but numerically there is very little ground to stand on, the dps simply isn't there.
Thanks^^
does anyone have a scent of blood tracker
outlaw i think likes stealth more but it’s still kind of the same idea where like saving 5 seconds of downtime cus ur actually hitting mobs instead of sitting around
a seperate one
is a benefit
i think you’d have to just get a pack and rip the tracker out or make your own
good rogues love chainpulls cus stuff is allready running that a stealth pull would give you
you basically want stealth before you do big/dangerous pulls
but like, you dont chainpull into the dangerous packs anyway, so its not a real "problem"
most people that complain aboit stealth dont know how assa works in the first place tbh
Big true

if u think garrote is a good button

Whispyr’s weak aura has it built in, you can grab it from eh
So if a pack of 5 mobs is pulled and I don't have stealth, how many ruptures should I apply? I usually spam FoK -> 5cp rup, til I have it on 5 targets for the damage bonus. In this case stealthing would save a lot of gcd's. What am I missing?
my sims saying ovi'nax trinket in all content but we don't like it, right?
Depending on mob health pools, prolly 3-5
Assuming a +11/+12 where they will live for the full rupture duration
5 then?
5 would be ideal, especially if you’ll be sending cds
Yeah
20% agi for DM and KB is giga
~5 is the goal ye
dont think youre missing anything but how often do you get chainpulls into a pack of 5
sounds like a 1 per 3 dungeons scenario
Some tanks just keep doing it haha
and then prob 50% chance your vanish is ready

The worst is when tanks edge that one low health mob into the next pack
Just don't chain when mobs are at like 10% lol outside of that it's fine
^ exactly that
then you kill it and stealth
??
Yeah on the ptr. Remember you can just play in visage in case you want to keep an humanoid appearance
Yeah but sometimes its at like 20%, and all the other DPS switch to the new pack, so there I am ST'ing haha
do you go garrote package or vicious venoms?
I mean, this is definitely possible in some situations, but they’ll drag it right near the new mobs, so caustic will just put you in combat
i would say just venoms exclusively in raid
then why are you not dotting the new enemys allready
so you can hold vanish
or use vanisb
Whatever sims highest

Are you Tryan to get me angry?
having vanish only ever used for the mark lets you get more dn envenoms sometimes
can reapply mark in the last second before queen phases for example
that cucks you the entire platform phase with no vanish
but it is real damage

no im tryan to make you guys realise that its no big Deal, and that the situation you make up doesnt happen "all the time" like some say it does

The more I play sin in keys the less i care about stealth ngl
is there a macro to apply poisons with one button?
I apologize for losing my temper. I know you’re just trying to help. I’ll do better.

stealth unironically is a crutch
Only time I'm unhappy is if we're going into a good iron wire pack and they don't let me
But thats tbh tank issue
Or hold vanish issue
don’t hold vanish
it’s a tank issue
you don’t chain pull before scary packs with any comp really
Ik but in weekly 10s
I just hold incase tank brain
Not for long, just when ik a big pack is coming
Not having vanish for bosses feelsbad tho my deathmark value 😢
I'm super new to assa, just got boosted from guildies through a 10 last week. Do I take spyglass myth track or socket? Mainly asking if spyglass is worth to use for keys
idk sim
crit pretty good in aoe
i simmed, i just have no idea how practical this thing is
It's really good
like does it put a mark on a random FoK mob
that do i need to hit
or does fok just trigger the marks
(sorry if that is dumb question)
Its nice for st. Requires a little bit of paying attention for aoe but still good
But if you have dog trinkets just take it
Cba to pay attention, I just blast
Anyone have a good cross hair WA that stays on your character? I got clipped by a couple circles in GB and wanted to uninstall. I used to have one but it stopped working
Why are we paying attention to a trinket
Spyglass sims pretty close to a few of the other BiS trinkets, probably worth it for immediate value
Good point
because my .02 dps is the only reason I’ll time an 8 GB
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
No idea why this couldn’t come up. Thanks bebe
Not even that, like you can’t control it
What are we doing

changing it to like an Aqua color always made it easier to see for me
Turn on self highlight
I am sorry that I asked a fucking question, as i have no clue about my rogue
I will the proc to happen more with my epic gamer psionics
Simply built different
I’m not responding to you
ansurek still got the mark bug?
Hes responding to the people talking about spyglass procs lmfao, you're good brother
I’m responding to the guy who said you have to pay attention to a trinket that you entirely do not need to pay attention to
What mark bug
When is it dropping
no i mean, I rmbr there being an issue with it, was wondering if it still was the case
I don’t know what the issue is though
I can’t tell you if it’s still the case cause idk what “it” is
it all started when i was 7 years old
yeah there were multiple different bugs that caused dsm to just poof
now allegedly theres still something but i dont think ive experienced it
queen ansurek stealing darkest night when she phases is a thing im pretty sure tho
Stealing darkest night? 
Oh
mark just poofs and dn with it
That’s a feature though
but that happens on like half the bosses in the game
and i assume cant be fixed?
or if it can it probably wont

It probably could be fixed but they don’t want to I guess
yeah
But yeh mark going away on intermission is entirely normal expected behavior for this well designed hero talent
so fun and quaint and fun
Having to beg on my knees in wowhead articles to make it even remotely playable in m+
Very cool
is there like a benchmark overall envenom uptime % in m+ i should try to hit?
i have like 70-75% and its probably not great
Need help deciding what 636 piece to craft… weapon or waist? My waist is currently champ track, most of my other gear is hero, my hero braces are pretty solid with the rights stats for now, and I don’t have any mythic gear but I will in the vault next week as Ive broken into +10s… or should I just focus on maxing out all my hero gear? TIA
If you dont have a mythic mainhand craft a weapon
i hover around these numbers as well. (when i don't die too often)
If you do then craft whatever slot you have the worst piece in, which sounds like it might be waist, but sim to be sure 
always weapon, even if you get myth track from vault its not an autopick
or well I guess that asnwer depends on if you kill 2nd boss on mythic in raid (puggable if you dont have a guild)
Yeah it is waist, and a ring/trinket that are still champ… I believe the crafted waist is actually BIS yeah?
What trinket should use in MM+ overall? skardyn grace with anub crystal/spyglass/or arakara
i'm lost
can confirm i went from 619 mh to 636 mh and my dps and credit score went up the same %
Bis is irrelevant unless you have literally every item
Like ye crafted weapon might not be bis, but if its a +30k dps upgrade for you its still worth it
17 ilvl on your mh is a huge dps increase
Thanks heaps man, I felt like the weapon was the way to go but just wanted to confirm.. tyty
i dont only do dmg in heroic 
yeah wep is just never a bad option for rogue, maybe in some weird scenario where youre the only rogue and the boss drops in multiple times, but even then you have embelishment on it unless youre playing m+ embelishments
crest cap is slowly starting to stack up + sparks so if youre low on myth track pieces in a week or two you might just have to craft 636 in random slots anyways
atleast ill be in that situation very soon
all it takes is 1-2 bad vaults
How does the bubbling wax compare to algari oil and whetstone?
Wax is roughly in part with oil and slightly behind whetstone
I know I heard it used t be bugged if you used it on both weapons, that issue still exist?
!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
are any of yall getting mythic invites????
ive spent the last like 4 hours applying and have done a grand total of 2 dungeons.
this is the way of dps
like its actually rough i just want to spam mythics for fun,,,
fun?
hit or miss - you're not a dk/rsham/aug so you need to have good io relative to the keys your applying for and apply to a lot of them
Do you always sync your echo with KB + shiv or use it whenever available?
my thoughts exactly. Hell is more like it.
send on CD
It doesn’t stack, yes
Gotta find some friends then
if we mess up and have bleeds fall off during kingsbane window should we reapply during or after?
Pugging this early in the week is so trash
Should’ve refreshed them in pandemic before they fell off
Will you be my friend
This season especially I think you need to push your own key until you have a few 12s under your belt (2.8k). I just listed my necrotic wake 12 and got ~50 apps in 30s, most of them 2.8k+.
Sure man
are any of the black rock depths items going to be good?
12s are a huge wall at the moment, and pugs are unlikely to invite anyone who hasn't timed a couple.

too bad. maybe the healers tuff will be sounds decent
Blizzard has been pretty firmly against timewalking gear being good after court/vault timewalking
Doubly so for raids
The less farmable, the more they make sure it’s bad
Not a bad thing
What trinket should use in MM+ overall? skardyn grace with anub crystal/spyglass/or arakara
i'm lost
can rogue dodge queen devour in intermission with evasion?>
No
Try doing a few different sims, dungeon slice vs patchwerk vs hectic add cleave
See what sims better for you
Skardyns prob a good idea overall
Aftre that its probably arakara
But your sim is a better answer than me
It give me always arakara/skardyn mostly, but i see much sin playing spyglass or anub
Spyglass is good too, probably personal pref at that point
prob just sims better for them
anub and void contract both sim higher than sac for me
Alright 😄
Improved garrote on st is better with 4pc?
Usually the answer is always sim it
dealth 10% more so maybe
If you dont know how just ask and see what others do

So I'm about 575 Sin Deathstalker Rogue, +8 delves are kicking my ass. This normal for this ilvl?
Or am I just bad.
CT gives energy right
no
if it did it would probably be a lot higher prio and might even be good on ST
whats prio when not getting a restealth from pack to pack
CT>fok>rupt x5 > garrote >fok>envenom
?
I just got the queen's trinket from the weekly quest, is it any good for sin? how important is it to last hit with it? im assuming very..
also looks annoying that it has a slight cast
last hitting is nice but not required, trinket is very strong, you can move during the cast so its not too bad
i like it for sniping problematic adds like worms on ovinax
i think i read here somewhere that there is a list for things we can evasion/cloak/vanish?
Don’t worry I got 3 priests to pi you it’s invalidated
how much did you pay your mob grinders to not press buttons
I’m getting pi sometimes. Idk what her logic is
Fucking shaman got a warband skardyn on my last run
Im never getting out of this prison

Newish to assassination this expansion. Are there supposed to be times in raid where I am just auto attacking to get energy? I feel like Im constantly running out of energy unless I have tea off cd
!energy
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
!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.
TY!

We don’t have something like that, best is a list from mages with invis in #wow-general
i see thanks

Kinda struggling to live keys on Assa is there ever a world where i just say fuck it and send vers rings for the extra dr
that gearbox trink from BRD looks pretty niceeeeeeee, free damage from criting 😮
and hand of justice 😮
so many cool looking things, that I am sure wont be great but damn they look fun
Anyone here playing 14+ keys?
Im just getting farmed by dots in 14s
Splice in cot and the dawnbreaker dot
Siege of boralus 2nd boss

We are always pugging healers
But my premades plays frost dk and tank and they are both unkillable
Did u see kirko grippers???
Your silence is deafening
Can someone tell me please what do I type in Weakauras so that Serrated Bone Spike text will show '# of total nearby targets' inflicted?
That dk class cant die i agree
Yeah elusive doesnt work on tbose
Kinda feeling helpless on the dots

They tick me for 3-4mil per second
Wdym
Make sure your trigger is set to unit: Nameplate, then for a text use %matchCount
🦶
Welcome to rogue
No?
I wouldn’t know
We’re weak against dots and always have been
Should
It does

Elusiveness works on all dots?
It's 40% for aoe and 20% for all other dmg so yea it works on dots (20%)
I dont read my talents
"You now have 20% dr on EVERYTHING"
Whuspyr says yes so yes
You need the dr
no i'm stupid
Unfortunately
Ye Prolly

I thought
also if you evasion its 20% dr too
Yeah that’ll do it 
Elusiveness only worked on things that avoidance worked on
it also makes evasion a DR
Ok
kinda strong
I found for a cheat death to be good
They have to be accessible and no compete with better things
So pressing Feint + Evasion is 40% DR
Rogue cheatdeath competing with elusiveness is probably a good balance
I mean
Cause elusiveness not needed in lowkeys or some bosses
!wa

So you know about the 1st half of the talent
Been thinking about going dwarf but unsure
U should
And then you got veng that has the shittest cheat in the game and gates you away from better talents
If u push keys
I like my cute nelf
Its not required but generally in m+ u wanna be either nelf or dwarf
Do you have the Auto Clone checkbox checked? You should uncheck it if you do.
Nameplate uses, well, nameplates, to track the buffs, so it will only see units with nameplates. If trivial enemies don't have nameplates, it won't see them.
You can instead swap to "Multi-Target". This, however, can have other side effects like the buffs automatically fading after 60s or remaining on targets that are despawned / out of spawn range
I mean thats m+
There is no perfect tracking
I had no idea elusiveness worked like that
Playing meta can do that
Sadly most are dogshit so
Even high end ones
I would swap to Multi target and see if that catches the trivial enemies when they don't have nameplates
Tank beta nerf did irreparable damage to the community
I unironically hope they don’t reverse it
Also why do you need to see the debuff counted for trivial enemies, won't trivial enemies just instantly die?
Ill start playing elusiveness tomorrow
So people can learn how to tank properly instead of do shit like nospb builds
But damn i enjoy cheat
yeah it probably doesnt matter :d
Esp demon hunters

Well thats such a game changer
People think the tierset that made them immortal is still around
I thougt we had no dr
I mean 20% dr still isnt the best v dots
When avoidance did t worn
And play like diarrhea caked ass
Still gotta pray for healer
Guildy came asked me to review his vdh
I swapped off cheat went into cot 13
Meta sucks man
“It’s my oh shit button”
U wouldnt get it
I get targeted by double bolt kick one no one stops the other it bolts me for 7 mil i get oneshot
Playing reaver
Less experienced gamers have a weird tendency to wanna hold cds for whatever reason
Like they’re scared they won’t have it
But then never use it
Such a noob trap
But I think that comes with knowledge and experience
But generally
the reason is they dont know to leverage Hit points
Monkey see action cooldown up me press
Yeah
The higher the key the easier it is to gauge when to send CDs and which packs to hold on
Problem is higher keys take more skill
And the people at the lower skill level wouldn’t know what to do with their CDs in the first place lol
Mists or
Yup
Boring
But its not even the easiest one
Do it in a REAL key tho
I think arakara and dawn is easier
Like some gb
14 gb sounds like a nightmare
I have timed 13 gb
I don’t go above 11s cause fuck it
But I’ve been in GB prison for two weeks now so eh
So cheat death or elusiv? Now that u tried it @dawn heath
I havent
Theres no choice here really
I would always play cheat in sub 12 keys tho but idk above that its Prolly elusive
This imo
10-11 you dont really need dr
I mean u gonna have to for the dr sometimes
atleast feint wont be on gcd soon
I will say all my keys are done with cheat death
But i havent done the highest keys
Only 13s mostly
I mean yeah U CAN play cheat
But ppl have done 14 and 15 with cheat death
I think there are some duengons cheat is fine in
But yeah
Thing is both are really strong
I feel like this expo has to nuch random and un avoidable dmg
Cheat death effects are really good in keys
But the trade off is big
Ive been screaming at my prot war premade to intervene me alot
And dk would amz etc
To help me live sketchy situations
Problem is. If the 20% dr is not enough. Cheat death might have saved you
We would have timed 14 dawn
But the duengon bugged
There was a insivible orb
On the third mini boss
We had 0 death up until that point
And we full wiped to orb going into wall
There was no animation
!fuu

No visual
dawnbreaker bugged? say it aint so
Classic
But ye my mist 14 run was cursed
Invis puddles or
Ah well
is feint going off the GCD next week or did they remove that change?
on how many targets we start using crimsom tempest, 2?
!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
I had a +13 NW key and it turned into a +8 AMA
how does surgeon stitchflesh feel after the "nerfs"?
Barely saw him we bricked 3 times at 2nd boss
The add damage is a bit better though
More manageable can do like 2-3 phases if you need
2 is ideal though one spear each
Affix is kinda cheeks this week I feel
i thought after 12 you dont get affix
You don't but I meant for the ones after we bricked twice
it do be that way sometimes
if im ilvl 593 when, if ever, should i be using crests and stuff to upgrade my gear
yeah only thing when you wanna be more careful is for gilded and runed, rest you can just use free for all
I'd say use all your crests up to 619 and above that only if the item has very good stats/it's hard to get
delves mainly, and raid or m+
realistically you can do it with your current ilvl
try to do at least +3 to get hero track gear in the vault
but it will probably be hard to find those keys or get accepted
i will upgrade my gear or find better before i try joining people, tbh ive made all my own groups for m0 and they all go well ish
we wipe alot but after 1-3 wipes on a boss we know mechanics and kill easily
ive done that since like 580
shit slow af tho
yeah if you make your own keys it should be fine and you'll start stacking your vault 
the weekly quests/events might also give you good upgrades, especially the weekly quest that awards heroic gear this week
If getting myth track slots on your vault is not easy for you, getting some 8+ delve slots with hero track stuff can give more chances to roll tier pieces and there are a few goodies, like the shadow binding knife or whatever it is called which is one of the strongests trinkets you can get on hero track.
https://gyazo.com/e9a18440759fcdc4ce80fd92725d95f1 why is the (+3) separate
its just a preview window to whats its going to upgrade
Hi guys, I need some help on some of my Heroic boss fights. Is there a better place to ask than in this channel? I'm currently comparing last nights kill with another top rogue and I can't seem to figure out how they do so much more dps than me.
Two things stick out to me in the comparison.
- Their envenom's are much bigger than mine
- Their Kingsbane is bigger
- Their "Hunt them down" is way bigger (is this just RNG?)
I think from the log I messed up taking spatter instead of internal bleeding as the adds damage isn't included in logs?
I also think I messed up Deathstalkers Mark as I only have 8 hits compared to their 25. Maybe I need a WA or something to remind me to go 7 CP?
Here is the log in case any kind rogue would like to give me some feedback:

P.S. I wasn't ready when the guild pulled so I wasn't stealthed at pull 😦
but 603 to 606 is 1 level upgrade why do i get 6 total ilvl from that upgrade?
ohh nvm i see
its just showing me how much im getting like i cant subtract 603 from 606
right
Yes 🙂
wow thats so dumb i feel like.. the + number is so green as if it's additional ilvl
It's just showing the increase 🙂
!fuu

Oh and specifically, what do you guys do in the intermission with the adds? None of that damage counts in logs?
Ulgrax adds are counted on logs
well yeah it looks like you didnt apply mark at the start
so you only got mark up on the boss at like 2min30s into the fight
what is overall supposed to look like? 10 GB
Weird why my spatter is 0 dmg in the logs. Could it really be they died so fast I never got one off?
rupture a high hp mob, mutilate for caustic spatter, and fan of knives+envenom spam
or just go full single target if adds die too fast
was the add mob you cleaved off of ruptured
Yeah that was unfortunate
tier 8 delves give 616 hero gear in vault
If you didnt have a rupture and deadly poison applied and then mutilated a target
On heroic they die really fast so its almost pointless to target them
also, doing one bg win typically gives the quest item for conquest heraldries which you can use to craft 610 pvp gear
Yeah it's weird I know how spatter works, maybe I just freaked out and didn't get it applied properly 😦
Yeah maybe that's why this other rogue just goes for internal bleeding instead. They did die real fast.
yeah adds died too fast to get poison+rupture+mutilate up for caustic
https://wowanalyzer.com/report/AMPz6Zw27p3BWRqy/5/54 here is some of the issues you had during this kill
It's crazy with all these small mistakes I went from a 76 parse to a 14 parse by bracket 😦
Do you guys use CT for mythic ulgarax?
Its not perfect but it can get you a good idea on what you can improve on
Ohh nice I forgot about that thanks! Shit it shows I didn't use potion or flask too....
wowanalyzer isnt updated for this spec, dont look too much into it
other than the basics
Yep
Also shows I had 3 envenoms with "don't need to pandemic rupture" errors. I guess this means I had to hit rupture in the envenom window which is not optimal, but it wouldn't affect my envenom damage right?
exactly like this
ur breakdown looks very fine 👌
It means that you had rupture about to fall off and used envenom instead
Balanced spec
felt like i played well in that lil key, still feel so weird/weak on bosses. esp ones without lust or cds on pull
its what it is,sin isnt the best ST spec rn but its good enough.There are mages and locks and shamans that destroy bosses,we cool
Shamans giga
for m+ that is
!lag
Significant WA lag

im fuckin up in M+ somewhere 1.3mil with 623 ilvl is low as fuck
there is no specific dps range associated with ilvl and there are many factors for it
stop looking the stupid meters and practice
post logs or details
Imagine your tank single pulls and the other dps are brain dead. It’s not gonna be pretty
i know dungeon and pull specific but almost every dungeon im at 1.3 mil
biggest issues are shit caustic uptime, poor death mark usage, wasted time between gcds
and poor dm usage
not having mark is not a small mistake
guy on orange straight up terrorist
did u kill princess?
hey. dead is dead
oh I mean the actual kill pull was clean, just took way too many tries
when pulling a pack with darkest night up whats higher prio darkest night or CT?
ct
Hey all. In big pulls like arakata first till spider and necrotic wake ( 15+ mobs), should we try to rupture everything or just 5 ruptures and start blasting with envenom? 🙂
5 ruptures

5 rups, make sure to slam out ct fast too and then envenom
You always slam out ct equally fast

do we have an idea of specific talent/rotation changes for next week's patch?
Nothing much
Might play MA potentially
Without subter, with supercharger
And TTK
Hello, I was wondering about Whetstone vs Algari Mana Oil - on my server currently Whetstone is 3x more expensive so I'm wondering if I for now use Algari Mana Oil as an alternative, how much worse is it?
I don’t have a number for you but it’s not much worse. You’re completely fine to use the oil
You can sim if you want to see the difference
You can sim consumables, one has stats so its different for multiple people
Whetstones are better but the difference in output isn’t going to be the difference in a boss dying or not or you timing a key
Probably ye
Oh wait u mentioned that
Fuck
Nvm
TTK especially says hello
Well the thing is
TTK may just make things easier, I could do a fancy ironfur thing but like
thank you, didn't know I missed the consumable simming part under "more options" 😺
well if you want to maximize double envenom uptime
dunno how that would loook like though
I’ve been a bad rogue
gotta ask daddy whispyr for that, he has the 
Iirc the Whispyr of yesterday said its more or less the same, only more envenoms in shiv window
He’ll let us know when he has it, I can be patient
Right, like my envenom has extra logic to show pandemic tick but there is no pandemic anymore because there’s no clipping
So that reduces complexity
If there’s no need to track the current envenom stack or w/e, I could even completely hide the env bar
And please has anyone figured out the best 2nd trinket (m+ only, to accompany Skardyn)?
I looked at many different places and I can't seem to find a clear answer.... I have Dead-Eye + Empowering Crystal in my vaults and no idea which one to pick 😂
for example CasualAddict in his stream command has Skardyn + DAWNBREAKER, meaning Empowering Crystal.... but many other places say that Dead-Eye Spyglass is better... 😂 any advice on this please? ♥️
they are pretty close
sim it
and so is ara kara trinket
Crystal is theoretically the best in m+, the others arent far off tho and on ST they all are more or less equal, depending more so on gear
And heroic knife is better than all of them unless you got a myth track

would it be possible to have 2 envenom bars? one for each application?
Yeah absolutely
It just comes at the cost of visual clutter
It’s easy to make bars for each stack independently
heyo yo does feint reduce area dmg by 60% with the elusiveness talent?
And I don’t want to go that route if there’s not decision value to it
Can just take the long bar and cut it in half
So you have stack 1 on the left and stack 1 on the right
Same total length
nope doesnt stack
huh
I think the 3 parts thing is still fine. Like 4 parts might get kinda small and confusing
but it can only stack up to 2?
I thought it could go to 3
afaik it can only go to 2 with new TTK and no longer pandemics
that's what it played like on PTR
but I don't know how a third envenom interacts with 2 stacks, might just overwrite the first one?
I think I just need to see how it’s played once we have the full cook
If its 2 I think halving the bar might be the best solution without adding clutter
it's probably the biggest change - supercharged is very minor and less stuff than ER is right now
Yeah supercharger has no tracking right? It’s just more damage
same for autotea
You could I guess track the buff but I dont think its too useful
What I’m trying to sus out is “do we track envenom at all with TTK”. If we do, I like the half-bar idea
on PTR you get first 2 cps being blue but unlike ER those get consumed with the next finishers immediately
I don’t intend on tracking it thus far
so it's pretty we
Ye its like tracking ER if you would always hit the charged Cp anyways
i tested supercharged on sub and they also stack in case you use the supercharger skill (shiv, rtb, symbols) multiple times in a row without consuming the extra CP
is supercharger going to kill deathstalker?
Huh why would it?
doesnt DS heavily rely on the anima charges to get the max cp envenoms?
Oh yeah thats what I expected but didnt even question
tho cases are probably rather rare
That’s good. I was concerned
nah not really
Its just a feel good thing and you still get more Cp value finishers with supercharger
its nice to hit the mini game but its not a big change
- new twist the knife and longer master assassin might go crazy
will see
You can just build to 5
12 second master assassin is kinda silly
if you take subterfuge
Yeah we probably wont
never know!
imagine if we did
and then we garrote 12 globals in a row
jk im gonna do that for the memes
well I would imagine it would be for the 25% crit chance
12 seconds
kinda nutty
but again
will have to wait for sims
I can imagine it being good in m+



pretty much
