doesn't matter

zenith cedar
#

What's the verdict? Do we just never want to go under 30 energy? or is the auto-proc kind of ok?

balmy condor
#

sim avoids going under 30 but it's 0.2%

#

so

#

who cares

zenith cedar
#

Gotcha, pretty minor

#

I can forsee griefing a CD window if you repeateadly auto proc thistle right before CDs come up

#

but maybe in practice that doesnt line up like that

vagrant brook
#

pretty sure you would only go under 30 energy during the kingsbane w/o DM

torpid prairie
#

Thanks for the help. Keeping track of all this while playing in melee range is way harder than my good old warlock.

tacit mauve
#

So its not worth using shiv in aoe? I thought it helped for more caustic dmg

last vessel
#

in the pinned message why would you spend energy if you are above 40% when spec'd into sanguine blades. Isn't this actively avoiding the talent?

last vessel
#

feels like the best way to actively avoid the talent is to not take it then

velvet nacelle
#

ugh, just got back from a vacation and so much to catch up on for changes

balmy condor
#

I mean, you can

velvet nacelle
#

@balmy condor thanks for the write up; let me know where to send those monster ultras 😛

balmy condor
#

internal bleeding and sanguine are basically equal

vagrant brook
#

what is the talent you hate the most and why is it sanguine blades whispyr

balmy condor
#

I actually love sanguine blades

#

it's just a bit scuffed tuning wise

velvet nacelle
#

the only monster that doesn't leave a weird aftertaste in my mouth is one of the fruit punches, i forget which, but it's got like 900g of sugar per can i swear

balmy condor
#

talent I hate most is an interesting question though

#

I think with current tree, it should be systemic failure

velvet nacelle
#

i guess i was hoping the changes would be better, though after all these years i should know better

wispy epoch
#

oh...

balmy condor
#

changes are good

velvet nacelle
#

oh i just realized how i misunderstood supercharged, it's not super charging combo points like before, it's doing a +2 on the finisher itself

#

that's neat

rotund oak
#

what are the odds u played in stormscale grammerpolice?

#

nvm its N.A

#

and u arent glad xped

zenith cedar

#

I haven't gotten into a single key this weekend

#

RIP

hollow talon
#

Everytime I make my own +12 it gets inted and no one will invite me to a 12

#

Time to play league of legends

blazing pumice
#

invite better players

errant elbow
#

Did you finish your wowhead update?

blazing pumice
#

🙂

zenith cedar
#

If I may, I recommend being giga selective about who you invite

slim pebble
hollow talon
#

My 11s and 10s always fill

balmy condor
hollow talon
#

And usually 1/2 chedt

#

Chest*

slim pebble
hollow talon
#

But my 12s always get the depleto patronum

zenith cedar
#

12s are quite a bit harder than 11s

rotund oak
hollow talon
#

It's hard in pugs

#

One bad pull is a depleto most of the time

rotund oak
#

think its a number most pugs wont handle even with communication and all

#

for stops

hollow talon
#

Or if one DPS is doing like 500k less

rotund oak
#

its just hard

#

its not always about dps it depends

#

u need stops

#

stuff hurts

wispy epoch
#

best way to do high keys is build your own group up from like

#

10 farms to above

coral ibex
#

why are you pugging above 10 is the question

rotund oak
#

yup

balmy condor
#

m+ brainrot

coral ibex
#

find a team

rotund oak
#

i just losing my sanity with mfkrs playing gods in keys

coral ibex
#

i like m+ as much as the next guy

hollow talon
#

How find team

rotund oak
#

add ppl and play with them

coral ibex
#

do m+, have good key, add teammates

#

repeat

zenith cedar
#

13 is just about the limit of what you can pug right now and basically everyone queuing into those is a past title-level player

hollow talon
#

Might have to give that a try

How good is evoker rogue going to be?

#

Dracthyr rogue

rotund oak
vital flicker
#

All dragons are evokers to me now

rotund oak
#

arak sure

slim pebble
zenith cedar
#

Dawn is easier than Arakara at 12-13 in my experience thusfar

#

Some BS always goes wrong in Arakara

coral ibex
#

are you in a guild?

#

does nobody in your guild wanna do m+

#

the question how do i find an m+ team is basically how do i find new friends

#

and the answer is talk to strangers

#

unfortunately

zenith cedar
#

By running alot of keys, not just the keys you need for score, and being friendly/fun to play with you can build a big friendslist of people who are at your skill level and then when you go into queue/post your key you already have 2-3 people inyour group who you can trust to not suck

rotund oak
#

It doesnt rly worth to pug m+ rn

zenith cedar
#

and guess what, sometimes, they will still suck. Everybody plays bad / has a bad key

rotund oak
#

least above 10s

coral ibex
#

yea i wouldnt pug over 10 its just asking to experience CBT

rotund oak
#

challengers peril is a no

#

simple as that

#

and the fact that although fort and tyr are both nerfed

#

both exist in a 10

#

so u know whats gonna happen with wannabes 😉

past panther
dapper pumice
#

Speaking of pugs, I just did a 7 with a unholy DK who did 300k dps across all 3 bosses in dawn lol

#

Mid level keys are a fucking nightmare right now

#

Sooo much better a couple weeks ago

#

I should have made my rogue then

blazing pumice
#

there's not really a lot of reason to run 7s

dapper pumice
#

Lot of alts right now

blazing pumice
#

yer but you do an 8 and you get gildeds

dapper pumice
#

Yeah but at 610, ain’t nobody inviting me haha

#

Even as KSH alt

waxen oyster
#

i mean 610 isnt high

errant mauve
#

Champ poison ring from queen won’t be replaced by anything else except higher tier poison ring from queen will it

waxen oyster
#

it might lose to a 636 ring

#

or narrowly beat it

#

likely depends how much crit you have etc

errant mauve
#

Oof rough times

waxen oyster
#

its like 1% damage for free

#

nothing insane

wild birch
#

Free 1% is free 1%

errant mauve
#

Yea, there’s no chance it can drop in vault is there

waxen oyster
#

yes its basically a 619 ring with a free 1% damage proc

#

so highly depends on your gear

#

raid vault can have any boss you've killed

#

on that difficulty

wild birch
#

For me 626 one sims better than any 639 ring (with my gear)

#

obv except the seal at 639

wispy epoch
#

literally made me have to move my enchants to mastery procs

waxen oyster
#

well yeah

#

That's what happens when a ring's stat budget is like 80% crit

dapper pumice
coral ibex
#

stat weights dont matter

waxen oyster
#

unless you're dh

#

then you stack crit to the moon

#

nice spec

torn shadow
torn shadow
errant mauve
#

Say I miss the second shiv window in half of my kingsbanes over 5ninute fight roughly how much of a dps loss is that

mystic osprey
#

maybe too low ilvl for puigs idk

errant mauve
#

-30% of half of the over all kings babe dmg?

mystic osprey
#

sim it

torn shadow
#

Yeah I’ve been forced to essentially bribe the guild groups to let me join their groups haha

mystic osprey
#

its not muich nicer as outalw

errant mauve
#

Or more probably cause of the arterial talent cap stone

torpid temple
#

Run your own key

errant mauve
wispy epoch
#

gotta have that 626 ilvl

errant mauve
#

I’m shy of 2600 and 625ilvl and it still takes me forever to get into a pug

torpid temple
#

Not for a 7

dim yacht
#

that doesnt change. im near 3k, 629

#

still struggling

wispy epoch
torpid temple
#

Lol yeah

#

Big difference

dim yacht
#

nope, 13s

#

but my point is it never changes

wispy epoch
#

13s!!!

dim yacht
#

when i was progging 11s, i couldnt find groups

#

12s, couldnt find groups...it just doesnt change

errant mauve
#

Never will

torpid temple
#

But it did. You can get into 11s now

errant mauve
#

Been like that since M+ came into existence

wispy epoch
#

i get accepted pretty quick to 8-10s. But most dps that are chosen for those are DKs and uhhh...

I may never step foot in there again

rotund sail
#

errant mauve
#

Are the changes coming this Tuesday any good for sin? I know they make sub a wet noodle

sacred schooner
#

check pins 🙂

snow juniper
#

why am seeing rogues in PoVs running 3 poisons not all 4

drowsy hatch
#

Are they skipping crippling?

compact crown
#

when it's already doing tank dps half the pulls in a key lmfao

snow juniper
#

op

#

yup lili

#

nvm

dire sphinx
#

Is 1.1 mil sim (735k vs dummy) low for 618 ilvl?

balmy condor
#

nah that seems reasonable

mint valve
#

Is treacherous transmitter better than skardyns grace?

#

As your on use?

balmy condor
#

bout equal but harder to play

dire sphinx
#

damn, how are other rogues in raid pumping out 1.2 mil sustained at the same ilvl

dapper pumice
#

rockin a 593neck right now loll, thoughts on using a spark to craft one? i have 3 left

cunning cloak
dapper pumice
#

yeah thats what im thinking

#

dont really have anything else i ened to craft

#

*need

#

will still have enough for a nother weapon unless i get unlucky too

#

*if i get unlucky

cunning cloak
#

Then send it, probably be last piece to upgrade with crests vs any other gear, cause no agi

dapper pumice
#

makes sense

cunning cloak
#

And if you get a better neck to drop off a run or vault, no big deal cause you're gonna keep getting sparks

dapper pumice
#

yeah

#

convinced

#

ty

#

lol

#

and i should def go crit/mast right

cunning cloak
#

Sim, but those are good stats

#

Just depends on your other gear and stats

dapper pumice
#

yeah gonna throw it in with my ideal gear and see whats what

#

ty

grave osprey
#

“The speed of assa is going way up in 10.0.5” does this mean or energy regen is higher therefore higher APM? 🤔

balmy condor
#

yes

grave osprey
#

Oh! Thats pretty cool! Looking forward to the changes and never having to press SnD again 🎉

dapper pumice
#

oh great, my wrists

grave osprey
#

Im sure it wont be nearly as bad as outlaw 🤣

dapper pumice
#

is outlaw basically like leather fury

cunning cloak
#

Dont the pirates have like .8 gcd or something like that?

grave osprey
dapper pumice
#

i always end up healing towards the end of every xpac cause my wrists cant take it lol

grave osprey
#

Outlaw is the only spec ive ever played where i legit need breaks lol 😆

#

I find assa much more enjoyable and about half the APM, so win win.

zenith cedar
#

What is making it go up in speed?

#

With Alchemy Stone 636 being around 10k better than the next 626 option for passive slot on my sims, it seems like crafting it rn for the 633 trinket free-upgrades is an easy choice

#

Long term I save crests, I get upgrade rn, I get to send my skardyns to 626 for free yipeee

balmy condor
#

@zenith cedar resim yourself on latest

#

tell me if it's fixed

mint valve
#

Does elemental focusing lens still work if you have no sockets?

balmy condor
#

no

#

it needs a gem to proc

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

zenith cedar
balmy condor

cool

torpid linden
#

so w/ ttk we wanna maintain envenom buff even outside of kb/dm?

balmy condor
#

same as now, yes

wise gull
#

I've seen 3 gale of shadows tonight

#

Where's my trinket? Madge

torpid linden
#

do u think its worth making a WA for envenom buff or just press buttons

balmy condor
#

yes

#

of course

torpid linden
#

I guess it can replace my snd wa..

balmy condor
#

what have you been doing all expac

torpid linden
#

I just came back a week ago

balmy condor
#

oh ok

torpid linden
#

me relearning game

balmy condor
#

yeah clipping envenom is kinda a core rotational concept for the spec

#

not tracking it is wild

torpid linden
#

clipping envenom meaning what

zenith cedar
#

do yourself a favor and download one of the handful of fantastic weak aura packs

balmy condor
torpid linden
#

oh

balmy condor
#

envenoming while it's around 1s remaining

torpid linden
#

okay I understand now

alpine oracle
#

big question, for gems do i use all colors?? or just mastery crit?

balmy condor
#

whatever sims highest

zenith cedar
#

Thats gonna be either the best or within like 0.1% of the other best option basically guaranteed

alpine oracle
#

do i need to check that checkbox? or no needed?

balmy condor
#

do me a favor and never sim a stam gem again

#

other than that looks good

alpine oracle
#

what do you mean? do I unselect the primary gem?

#

ahhhhhhhh

#

stamina one

balmy condor
alpine oracle
#

lol

balmy condor
#

@balmy condor I'm in pain, a month into the season and no grim batol trinket T_T

runic hinge
#

I’m not even sure the agi gem is worth having

balmy condor
#

I don't have it either

balmy condor
#

very impressive gem

runic hinge
#

I keep aiming and including it and it prefers verse master y

#

Instead

balmy condor
#

happens

torpid linden
#

I'm getting that trinket in my vault this tuesday

runic hinge
#

Like the agi ain’t even worth it

jaunty dew
#

At least I got HC Ansurek ring

#

So can't complain too much

runic hinge
#

And you got people like should I have a stam gem. And the sim says

#

Hey it’s -.3

#

If all your gems aren’t verse mastery

#

Fatebound is like -8%

#

It’s disgusting

#

I’m never doing a dungeon again

#

I’m gonna be so hung over for raid tomorrow

#

I’m gonna look like Kyle

Oh no

#

Not the Skardy G grind

#

its cursed for you brother

dapper pumice
#

is caustic splatter supposed to be my #1 in m+? from sims and looking at logs it seems so

wise gull
#

Run 50 seems like a lucky number though

#

Surely it drops this time

loud nest
#

It will always be the nest run ❤️ trust

wise gull
#

3 gales today

#

Happy for them

serene solar
#

That is so bad. I got mine in 7 runs, got another to give to a hunter in 6-7 more

hot fulcrum
#

Got my in 3rd run. Have no ideas what do you feel guys with such amount of runs 😦 (but I know tbf, never saw branch trinket from EB)

wise gull
#

This is the most I've ever had to run something

#

Next would be like 30 plaguefalls or something

#

Does Clear the witnesses mean that u wanna use Fan of Knives after applying deathstalker? Even on pure ST ?

Ya but you said if you aren’t running

balmy condor
#

#

so fok good enough

pallid bough
#

Ye

#

That’s what I meant

#

Sorry should I

#

Clarified more

balmy condor
#

okay so whats the question

pallid bough
#

I meant why FoK with clear the witnesses with no VV mut

balmy condor
#

oh

#

yeah damage

pallid bough
#

And asked if the logic was less energy cost

#

Ah

#

Kk

#

So ur telling me I have been trolling

cobalt sphinx
#

i don't think it matters that much

winged sun
#

guys

balmy condor

I am madge

#

My 0.3%

#

Madge

#

Surely Envenom 2nd stack (twist the knife) being removed gets fixed right?

#

Before Tuesday

balmy condor
#

whats that mean

pallid bough
#

Didn’t we talk about this

#

And you explained

#

That the stack is being removed on next ability because the previous stack before the 2nd one on Envenom gets removed

#

This

cobalt sphinx
#

is that just a timing thing

#

it looks like he explained it

pallid bough
#

Oh

balmy condor
#

that's just how it works is it not

pallid bough
#

Is it like

#

The previous duration of Envenom expired and updated the stack?

balmy condor
#

yes

pallid bough
#

Okay

#

Huh

balmy condor
#

do you know how iron fur works?

pallid bough
#

Nah

#

Don’t play Druid

runic hinge
covert creek
#

Whispyr,
with your WA pack whenever I'm alrdy under 7s of rupture remaining and it starts glowing to refresh it:
Why the glow fades if I get to 7cp ?
Is it better to 7cp an envenom there and let rupture drop for 1-2s?

#

<outside of cds>

balmy condor
#

probably forgot to set up a 7cp pandemic glow

#

I haven't noticed

covert creek
#

Thanks, I thought its intentional

winged sun
#

like u can press it at 3-4 cp and its fine or

runic hinge
#

Make sense?

winged sun
#

no

runic hinge
#

It’s the same Ap for 2 or 7

winged sun
#

Zerossthinking o i see ok

runic hinge
#

But

#

If you hit it when brood and 5 parasites are alive. It will hit brood for the same damage whole duration

#

Honestly tho you should play OL on brood you’re too good not to

#

Tell your guild

winged sun
#

im in the army cuh

#

i only play friday/saturday

#

no guild

balmy condor
#

all finishers are 5+ zeross

runic hinge
#

And all finishers scale the same

winged sun
runic hinge
#

It’s just duration. It’s not damage

#

Also not all mice are rats

winged sun
#

how does everyone know that story

runic hinge
#

Like not all ducks are geese

winged sun
runic hinge
#

I was here so

#

I’m not everyone

I’m just degen

#

Listen

winged sun
#

Zerossthinking i still have so many questions

runic hinge
#

Okay well

Just come to America

#

It’s very pretty up here

winged sun
#

i did some lil keys Zerossthinking

runic hinge
#

Maine is like top tier

#

Place in world

#

Probably top 5

winged sun
#

top 5 Zerossthinking

runic hinge
#

Umm

#

That place in Ireland

#

Black clifs

#

Great Wall for sure

#

Pyramids

#

Grand Canyon/the cool places in Arizona

#

And then my unbiased opinion Acadia national park

#

Which maybe that’s too many in America but Acadia is like top 10 on most lists and I’m biased cause I live an hour away

winged sun
#

i'd probably travel to switzerland at some point

#

thats one of the places i'd like to go later on

runic hinge
#

Yeah that’s cool but not like super top ten list

winged sun
#

i'll invest alot of time into wow once im free tho

#

need to take advantage of assa being op

runic hinge
#

Listen just hit me up I can get you to Acadia in 45 and I have a lot of fronds

#

It’s gorgeous

#

Probably not like 2900 io but

#

You can see the first sunrise in America and also go to a place called thunder hole which is really amazing same day

anybody that uses Whispyr's plater, does the color flash frequently (every other frame?)

it seems to have stuck me with 3 poisons

elvui nameplates are disabled, and i have no target based weakauras... alright thanks ill take a look

#

other whispyr plater question

#

like a week ish ago

#

it just started showing fake deathmarks

#

for me

balmy condor
#

that's just how that works

novel star
#

like if a target dies with dm on it’ll just show a random plate next pack a fake dm

novel star

okay

#

thought maybe it was a me issue

what caused that

oh pins are promising, sin is finally speeding up on top of breaking free from ER jail?

novel star
#

not sure if i would say speeding up is promising

#

but yeah

desert cove
#

I mean the speeding up isn't that crazy

novel star
#

that is what is happening

desert cove
#

it's not like we're becoming outlaw speed

compact crown
#

pooling = garbage design/gameplay imo lol

novel star
#

is the issue

#

like

#

100% (over 100% now) envenom uptime without having to try for it

#

is like

#

man

#

just not how things are supposed to be

novel star
#

having one unique thing(excluding feral) is nice

compact crown
novel star
#

fair enough

compact crown
#

it's so cracked as a spec tho

#

was thinking of swittching from sub to OL bcuz low dmg was making we wanna unsub

#

but damn i gotta change so much gear shit for that

desert cove
#

I hadn't considered that

novel star
smoky inlet
#

@balmy condor fixed, thanks

compact crown
#

i kinda miss when the spec had the choice to play more into bleeds or more into poisons tho

#

is 8.3 considered boomer shit yet here?

novel star
#

not boomer shit but it is considered bad

#

cause 8.3 is the prime example of speed making the spec insanely boring

balmy condor
#

once you enter combat it updates

#

and the fake border goes away

novel star
#

maintenance spec given way too much ability to mash makes maintenance not interesting anymore

#

and then what are you left with

compact crown
novel star
#

nothing really

smoky inlet
#

i liked sin in nyalotha

novel star
compact crown
#

ig im not loyal to the maintenance core identity in the first place

#

exsang was hella sick lol

novel star
#

that’s the entire spec tho unfortunately

compact crown
#

ngl i feel like the "entire spec" nowadays is just blizzard telling every rogue to play it

novel star
novel star
compact crown
#

like "we at least made sin strong with good talents, so shut up and be a good boy now"

#

right lul

grim jay
#

thats definitely a take considering they all are fundamentally different

#

and outlaw for example isnt bad gameplay wise

#

for the outlaw crowd

#

they only have a crisis on sub

compact crown
#

we still gotta consider throughput at the end of the day man

#

sub's dmg is straight up ass, OL is aoe capped

grim jay
#

yea outlaw was never m+ meta

#

bcs cap

#

i understand

novel star
novel star
compact crown
#

or rather, the mythic prog of normal ppl

#

not rwf

novel star
#

the spec that was used for like 3/8 bossss in rwf

#

is bad in mythic

#

interesting

#

skill issue potentially?

compact crown
#

like if ur min-maxing to down a boss with the lowest gear possible sub works out, but for the average CE guild the graphs aren't looking super hot

subtle tundra
#

and im playing assa on queef

novel star
#

sin getting buffs that sub isn’t is strange though

#

but still

#

sub is not bad

compact crown
#

ehhh

#

the dmg ranking charts suggest heroics andy spec kekw

#

cuz sub is strong due to dust, and u run out of vanish charges eventually

royal lantern
#

yes its tuned better then the other 2 rn

compact crown
royal lantern
#

but saying "people only play it cus numbers" is also kinda wrong cus the gameplay is enjoyed by quiet a few and feels the most flesshed out

royal lantern
royal lantern
#

tf you mean with that

#

thats some tinfoil shit right there

novel star
#

no conspiracy theories pls lmao

royal lantern

#

but then idk if it's all that easy

novel star
compact crown
#

bcuz i took a look at talent tree recently and wtf is this lmao

royal lantern
#

like, sub during DF S1/S2 was legit a melee bm hunter

#

and people still jerk sub of as THE HARDEST SSPEC EVER ALWAYS!!!!1111!!!!

#

when thats not how it works

grim jay
#

also people are good at different things and with all 3 rogue specs being fundamentally different, you will have different people calling different specs easier

compact crown
#

lul ironically that was the one time ppl didn't feel that bad about playing sub

DMG windows are objectively harder than non DMG wibdows

BUT like yeah sin isn't that fking easy at all imo

#

like wtf

novel star
#

real answer is just easiest != easy

compact crown
#

we got blade flurry but with poison proc now?

#

what

novel star
#

spatter does actively make the spec easier

grim jay
novel star
#

ur aoe rotation is just spamming fok env on gcd

1 min with actual big dmg is kinda nice

round harbor

Dfa coolest ability in the game

but man i feel kinda icky when i open up details and 80% of my dmg is envenom lol

whats the actual difficulty of sub rn?

royal lantern

and why is base dance worthless

subtle tundra
subtle tundra

imagine if you had everything baseline and talents were pure cosmetics

or what do you mean

compact crown

bcuz even with all the dance amped nodes combined

subtle tundra

what does that have to do with difficulty

compact crown

ur dealing tank dmg without flag lmao

balmy condor

ok?

wheres the difficulty

god bless 55apm assa

spamming envenom every 3 seconds

Fucking make rupture do damage and make sanguine actually take energy

novel star
runic hinge
#

Like why the fuck does a guide exist but it doesn’t even make our energy economy anything

balmy condor
#

ttk doesn't even fix anything, it just takes us from hardcapped 100% envenom uptime to the spec trying to reach for 200%

runic hinge
#

Why does rupture exist

royal lantern
runic hinge
#

Make rupture do my damage

runic hinge

Pls

ttk with this speed is stupid

Garrote drop. Rupture drop? Who care. Get to 7 math man says

runic hinge

I haste DS

subtle tundra
#

aaaaa

balmy condor
subtle tundra
#

they need to go into bleed interactions

balmy condor
#

exsang just mucks up an already bloated cooldown sequence

#

no one wants that garbage back

compact crown
#

actually tho yeah, i feel like they gotta tune down the base dmg of envenom big time if they want an actual maintenance spec

balmy condor
#

8.3 assa is by far worse than any 200% envenom uptime they could come up

compact crown
#

and then make proccing poison mean something

#

for dots

subtle tundra
#

bleed and poison interactions
you know
poisons infect the blood of the enemies
idk when you poison bleeding enemies other bleeding enemies take dmg and shit

blazing jewel

Bring back s4 SL so o have to do ct in st and actually think about snapshotting.

Wait do I care about snapshotting

novel star

cus that’s just details numbers

runic hinge
#

I’m gonna go play feral

novel star
#

if envenom did half the damage you would still mash envenom because there’s nothing else to do

runic hinge
#

Shien will show me the way

that half of it exists too

but imagine some sort of bloodthinner poison lol

where ur dots tick faster from poison procs or something?

# grim jay the chicken leg thief is kinda hard to decipher

the correct translation is he's flaming me for not talenting tricks in m+ because he's a 627 prot paladin that can't hold aggro on more than 1 mob the moment I press kingsbane cause he's by far the worst tank I've encountered in my 44 grim batols

DF SPEC MODERNIZATION RUINED WOW

"LETS HOMOGINIZE EVERY SPEC"

People say ER is bad now. They never hit 4 cp on first mut then hit 2 4 6 on their next 3 builders and pretend that’s a god capstone

marble hemlock
#

ER sucks

subtle tundra
compact crown
#

bcuz sub is fucked right now, precisely due to how they want sin/sub nodes to work on the "same" spell

marble hemlock
#

supercharger aint much better tho, not for outlaw at least

#

Serious question though Mr. Butlety... Did you just come in here to whine about Subtlety for like an hour straight?

novel star

supercharger is just nothing it’s just damage and u vibe

why the hell did they put it on rtb

?

subtle tundra
#

@balmy condor srry you mightve already tried this in sims for next patch, but its something that was on my mind
did you try to add shiv usage in aoe when specc'd into supercharged and not arterial precision?

marble hemlock
#

idk?

I WILL MAKE A RWDDIT POST ABOUR MYRHIC PULS

balmy condor
#

behold, the thing that they had and then refused to put on assa and we got exsang instead and it was a ton of fucking dev time to try and make exsang work but it didn't and all they needed to do was just add this and say "crits with combo point generators" and then walk away and spec would've been better for it in literally every patch since 7.0

grim jay
marble hemlock
#

ye

#

sinister calling was neat

keen spruce

especially on a spec that had 3 bleeds

@blazing jewel walk to the bar I need ten drinks

i still love pressing mutilate every 10 seconds on aoe

makes me fuzzy in my tummy

woah i forgot to mutilate and 2 ticks of my kb are GOOOOOOONEZOOOO

balmy condor

is that sarcasm I smell

runic hinge

Make me multi dot again

marble hemlock

nah

#

i love it even more

#

when you open

and for some reason theres no poison yet on your target

when you hit that mutilate

so you get to do it again

LOVE IT

balmy condor

I give up

#

y'all want mut mut env in single target and fok fok env in aoe

and nothing else

fucking forget it

nah

theres enough to do on aoe already

but that mut is just cringe

whispyr come back 😭

at least every 10sec

You garrote the. 2 casters and then you wanna get your DSM on the big guy but somehow he never got a deadly

i acrually do enjoy mutilating for spatter

maybe i’m a freak

is kinda based

marble hemlock
#

how is mut fok spend

#

not still gen gen spend

#

its just 2 different gens

balmy condor
#

because you have to time it

#

there's gameplay

novel star
#

because you aren’t pressing the mutilate for cp you’re pressing it for spatter

#

it’s not just a builder

#

it’s spatter uptime

balmy condor
#

I'm not just some ret reject sitting here smashing every button that lights up

marble hemlock

the problem arises when it just adds a button you would never in a million years press on aoe to the rotation, just cuz extra button

balmy condor

but every time this convo comes up

why mutilate? why not throw knife?

runic hinge

Ur mum

marble hemlock
#

i wanna press garrote every 3sec, i wanna fok for cp, i wanna spread ruptures via multidot while maintaining a somewhat short-duration CT

lucid rain

CT should infinitely stack

marble hemlock
#

i dont wanna have to press envenom on aoe at all, or mutilate

subtle tundra
#

rupturing a ruptured target makes the current rupture erupt and do its damage to every target in its vicinity

marble hemlock
#

cause you know what happens if we dont?

balmy condor
#

the game has moved on from that seli

marble hemlock
#

YEAH WELL I HATE IT OKAY?

runic hinge

I want ic dead and I want garrote to do gigs damage and rupture to do gigs damage and I want spatter to be a thing to do when I actually get my shit going

i mean i managed to be super competitive with all the outlaw fuckers. if i could do it, anybody couldve

IC CHOICE NODE WITH 20% BLEED DMG

40% BLEED

marble hemlock

i mean

#

blizz just took multidotting out the back

#

after legion

subtle tundra
#

200% BLEED DMG

marble hemlock
#

we got to keep it a little longer

#

than sp/boomie/affli

balmy condor
#

yes, cause they recognized the game moved on and that's not what aoe should be

#

we kept it through the era of apply your aoe dots to everything

subtle tundra
#

theres 38 specs or whatever in the game

balmy condor
#

now we're in the blade flurry era and thriving

subtle tundra
#

there is enough design space

marble hemlock
#

but overall, after legion, they just said "nah, multidotting too hard for dentge players, gotta make it easier" and as a consequence, those specs were beyond dogshit for like 2 expansions cause they couldnt figure out a way to make it reasonably good in aoe after gutting multidotting.

so they ended up giving most of those specs bladeflurry instead

#

l to the fucking mao

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

that basically sums it up

#

we are not the players that blizzard designs for

muted terrace

so the thisle tea change is a pure passive now or can u still use it on your own if u dont fall below 30?
