things die too fast in low keys not to run SD

drowsy hatch
#

the answer is always sim stuff for yourself but generally I see sacbrood just being ok in m+

#

behind stuff like skardyns, spyglass, crystal

old hedge
#

so like this?

waxen oyster
#

yeah i mean the other good option is bloodweeper from forge of souls

#

with nightmare illusion

#

makes the red glow really pop

stray adder
#

and pick ttk

drowsy hatch
#

I feel like you should drop doomblade to get ttk

crimson zephyr
#

I never saw that sexy elf on our talent tree 😮

drowsy hatch
#

in that

waxen oyster
#

you cant take bonespike

#

without doomblade

stray adder
#

?

subtle tundra
#

ty

drowsy hatch
#

well he still isnt taking sbs

subtle tundra
#

put it in ttk

lavish panther
#

is this new twist the knife build good for mythic+ or should I stick with the pre-patch build

uneven marsh
#

guys, Zac is playing sin and not outlaw. Is this the top signal ? PogO

drowsy hatch
#

so he either needs to drop sd for sbs or drop doomblade for ttk

waxen oyster
#

oh right yeah

#

if you drop spike you drop doomblade

remote turtle
#

wait

#

ttk -> db ?

sterile torrent
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
waxen oyster
#

i mean doomblade is not a good talent

#

its only taken for bonespike pathing

drowsy hatch
#

yeah only reason to take doomblade is sbs

old hedge
#

and sbs is only good in higher keys?

drowsy hatch
#

nah sbs is better the lower you are

#

in high keys you can drop it since you have more time to set up ruptures manually

#

but it's also just a good talent so its not like, much better to do that

remote turtle
#

when we talk higher keys

#

how much its

drowsy hatch
#

prob like 12+

subtle tundra
#

whatever key youre doing and things die slowly

waxen oyster
#

or any key

#

with aug

#

lmao

drowsy hatch
#

that too lol

subtle tundra
#

for casual doing with his main team it could be a 14

old hedge
#

so what that build looks like?

remote turtle
#

tbh rn i start feeling bad w the assa cuz i feel im doing everything good but my dmg its still stuck in 3 - 4m

waxen oyster
#

yeah i mean they all work

#

pretty sure casual was doing it with 1/2 subterfuge only

drowsy hatch
keen nacelle
#

Do you need to cast your bleeds during MA or can you just "stealth" and get the crit for the dots after they are applied ?:o

waxen oyster
#

kush was playing standard hybrid in a 15 with subterfuge 1/2

#

bleeds dont snapshot

#

crit value

subtle tundra
#

!!!!

drowsy hatch
#

ok well

#

do your weirdo stuff

remote turtle
#

casual its runnning 1/2

#

ub

#

sub

stray adder
#

wtf is that lol

drowsy hatch
#

well thats fine for casual too

#

the amounts in the rogue tree are completely flexible

balmy condor
#

okay but I need the most min-maxed top 0.01% dps build for my 10's

old hedge
drowsy hatch
#

just remember that you are not casualaddict and are not playing with as good of players as casualaddict

subtle tundra
#

in a 14

#

need a tank

balmy condor
subtle tundra
#

exactly

remote turtle
#

@balmy condor i feel like am doing something wrong 😦

balmy condor
#

sorry to hear that

waxen oyster
#

99% of players

#

can just play the wowhead hybrid build

#

and do fine enough to do ksh etc

remote turtle
cerulean walrus
#

That’s crazy

remote turtle
waxen oyster
#

I mean he really doesnt

#

nothing core about sin changed

balmy condor
#

it's still pretty accurate actually

subtle tundra
#

literally

balmy condor
#

just gotta use a bit of brain when I talk about a talent that changed

waxen oyster
cerulean compass
#

Can't we drop like, sanguine blade to get some stuff like that ? (Imma getting banned for posting shitty build ? besad)

heavy nebula
#

Maybe been asked before.. but… in AoE, how do you determine where to put garrote and rupture? or are you just going all over?

soft shale
#

i like when people ask me about the 4 diff shitty talents sub has in the middle

waxen oyster
#

while people asking 20x for a 10 build

soft shale
#

just use whatever

remote turtle
#

demise

#

its a 10% of dmg in all ur bleeds

balmy prism
#

how the fuck do you survive the big guys poison in CoT on top of the stairs on higher keys?

remote turtle
#

i dont feel like its worth it but

drowsy hatch
#

sd is so whatever

old hedge
remote turtle
#

whispyr or someone w more experience can talk about that

drowsy hatch
balmy condor
drowsy hatch
#

sim them and see whats better

waxen oyster
#

also if you do lower keys

#

or team keys with 2 big burst aoe classes

drowsy hatch
#

like I bet if you sim the 2 i sent

#

its within 20k dps

cerulean compass
waxen oyster
#

like if you’re doing NW

#

who cares about damage to little adds

#

that die as soon as necromancer does

drowsy hatch
#

I drop SD, personally

balmy condor
waxen oyster
#

if im doing vault fill keys

#

sb is like 6-7% of my overall

#

i aint dropping that

drowsy hatch
#

yeah I think SB is really good

limber lion
#

I like my SD doing like 4% in overall dam on top of the 10% bleed increase

waxen oyster
#

on big pulls once you rip CT

limber lion
#

Loss prevention lalala

waxen oyster
#

SB does so much work

stray adder
balmy prism
drowsy hatch
#

if only there was 1 more talent point

#

then that gets slammed right in sd and its all happy

waxen oyster
#

Honestly

#

having talent options means

#

your spec has good design

#

usually

drowsy hatch
#

no its true

#

I enjoy the options

limber lion
#

I kinda don't agree

#

Because it's not about situational variety

#

It's just about what does the most damage in aoe

balmy prism
#

I feel giga energy starved swapping off of ds on bosses in keys, am I imagining or is that the downside to being able to play sbs?

limber lion
#

You will be energy starved

#

And it's fine

waxen oyster
#

sb is the only talent that gets moved around

drowsy hatch
#

yeah the st m+ is just kinda starved

waxen oyster
#

that really affects energy

limber lion
#

I don't even really consider Sang in my builds anymore

#

It's just ttk vs demise

drowsy hatch
#

no? dont like the energy drain?

keen spruce
#

do you think blizz will listen

stray adder
#

running another +8 would probably be faster

limber lion
drowsy hatch
#

mm I see

cerulean walrus
drowsy hatch
#

I need to run more keys. I'm interested in that too

sturdy mesa

Telling them you are going to kermit will have cops sent to your house to check on you

cerulean walrus
#

No trade back option on those things is CRAZY

keen spruce
#

can i update my bugreport

#

I don't think anyone reads those anyways

sturdy mesa

#

tbh it makes sense sd is stronger than sb

#

considering the former is a capstone….

#

is there any secret to never fail reseting boss as rogue ?

#

i might vanish too late but u have to vanish as soon as the boss get the poisoned knife tick ?

and no one sees

#

I don't htink blizz has my real addr anyways lol

it also needs to be seen by someone who understands what "kermit" means

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.

# strange python sanguine blades?

yes but then you have to make a decision between TTK or SD because doomblade is required for sbs, also your base tree is wrong if you play MA, you gotta drop supercharger and recup to get at least 1 point into subterfuge, after that it's up to you if you prefer dropping lethality for 2/2 subt + WaT.

Also some people prefer sanguine over TTK and SD

Hey quick question, how does the interaction of double garroting after vanish work during death mark? do you just vanish garrote garrote and rupture at max combo points during the last 6s of KB?

wild birch
#

You don't? Just vanish->one garrote and continue doing what you were doing before

ooh im sorry i was thinking this was just doing double dmg on the target

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

Hey all! So, I recently came back to retail after being on Classic for a very long while. Wanting to get back into rogue and thankfully have a boost I can use. Back in OG Vanilla I ran Orc rogue. Now, unsure what race. I was told it doesn't matter, but all I see are dwarf rogues now. Does it really not matter or am I wrong? Sorry for the stupid question.

tulip fern
#

It does not matter unless you are planning to push 0.1%

still stone
#

DRACTHYR ROGUE

thorn fjord
#

% diff wont matter much

tulip fern
#

probably 0.01% honestly

#

Wait, I didnt realize Dracthyr could be other classes now! Holy hell that just changed everything!

#

heya, i know i asked this a few days ago, but i missed the post..how do i add the scent of blood on my rupture weak aura?

sullen hearth
#

Yeah I swapped to one myself for the shits

still stone
#

Haven’t you always wanted 2 more stops, double jump, and a mastery buff?

#

šŸ˜‚

#

And the option to look good or look like a freak

royal lantern
#

tulip fern
#

do you actually shank stuff as a dragon

#

because I could be tempted

#

Thats the one downside of the race. If I could stay as the human form during combat, it would be 100x better.

#

Who cares ligten up

royal lantern
# still stone Wait why are you so mad about a race

i hate people spreading Missinformation you bozo

first, its not "2stops for literally months now"

and the "more mastery" is the same (and for most classes even WORSE) then the "1% more crit/haste/vers" that most classes have

I know the guides all say that you don't Ambush open if you already have darkest night, and I follow that logic, but can I ask why?

jaunty lotus
#

Wait, I just saw the pin and am confused, is the top build in dslice dropping KB for ttk?

tulip fern
#

So it’s better to just start spreading bleeds

#

I believe

#

Might be wrong but that’s what I tell myself

misty skiff
#

The max combo envenom is what applies mark according to the tooltip

#

So I guess the ambush is just kind of a waste

tulip fern
#

Yeah that’s what I meant

misty skiff
#

Ye

#

Alright then

#

Ambush less value than a garrote if you don't need it for mark

#

Just apply the mark after a couple globals rather than first hit

and take the message as a whole for its full meaning instead of trying to force what you want out of it

no mastery anywhere (blah blah stats dont matter)

prisma sundial
#

in my sim rotation its using shiv before KB on the opener, does it matter that much if its in the opener compared to the last 8 seconds?

forest sable
#

probably a dumb question, but does assassin scale a lot better then gear? my other alts are performing better at same ilevel

blazing pumice
#

you're probably doing something wrong then

humble verge
#

so for raid, is there any better build than whats posted on wowhead by whispyr? could you tweak it for more ST or is there nothing to do with it

Wowhead is up to date

@blazing pumice after carnage ends, do you stick to your deathmark target/caustic. or prioritize spreading more rupture around other targets?

@prisma sundial DM > SHIV > KINGS> 3 sec on shiv > vanish> ambush >garote> shiv and continue

if you have 2 shiv charges

what

spare cargo
#

1 shiv charge is always 8 sec of kb

west crown
#

What

novel star
#

thats

#

what

#

you dont vanish ambush and you definitely just dont vanish in general at that timing

low kernel
novel star
#

you vanish the last 6s of kb which should line up with pandemic timing on garrote (and is after the 2nd shiv)

#

but you dont hit ambush out of it

novel star
#

just vanish gar

west crown
#

From memory

prisma sundial
#

im asking because the sim is doing it during the DM KB opener and not at the last 8 seconds so i was wondering if i should just ignore that and do it at 8 seconds left in KB or what

spare cargo
#

Why mr propaganda

#

if im at 0 cp

west crown
#

Well

#

Because it’s wrong

novel star
#

you do not ambush

#

ever

#

unless its for the mark

#

ambush is not a good button

#

and that vanish timing is just in general not correct

#

you arent vanishing when garrote is in pandemic OR for master assassin to overlap the last 6s of kb

#

which are the only reasons to vanish

spare cargo
#

you are vanishing for the crit buff no ?

novel star
#

yes

#

which

#

lasts 6 seconds

#

and is most valuable when its used on the last 6s of kingsbane

#

to make stacked kb ticks crit

humble verge
#

so is sim just bugging out, cause its suggesting me non-craft enchant on crafted wrists with ascendance dagger is better than with the craft enchant...?

west crown
#

The only reason you vanish before the last 6 seconds is if you delayed your opener

spare cargo
#

so what you are saying is thats why im losing 200k dps on st like sikran

novel star
#

not 200k

#

but

#

its definitely bad and incorrect yes

#

youre just probably also doing other incorrect things

west crown
#

Like vanishing and ambushing

#

With mark

spare cargo
#

if i sim 1,305 mil on 6mins fight and i do 1.221 mil in the actual fight that means i did pretty alright

spare cargo
#

with slight lost uptime during images

west crown
#

I wish I could sim 1.3

prisma sundial
spare cargo
#

Ive been doing ambush since i saw someone saying that aplying mark again is dps increase

prisma sundial
#

thats why im confused

west crown
spare cargo
#

can you show us the output ?

novel star
spare cargo
#

cause thats m+

humble verge
#

but im not doing it :D

novel star
#

and now its bad to vanish->ambush

#

because you cant consume mark stacks while DN is active

#

!ambush

#

!vanish

prisma monolithBOT
#

Vanish->Ambush during cooldowns with Darkest Night up has two main benefits:

  • Getting more mark uptime by reapplying when it's down
  • Consuming Darkest Night then puts you from 3 stacks of the mark down to 2 since the mark is already applied

As of September 13th with the Echoing Reprimand Fix, that second part is broken. Blizzard inadvertantly added a bug where you cannot consume mark stacks while darkest night is active. This will hopefully get resolved quickly as it is quite impactful. Until that time, you might want to consider taking improved garrote in your single target build (instead of 1 point of vicious venoms, or instead of improved poison). You do not have to do this, and if you would like to continue to play without improved garrote, you would simply hold onto your vanish in case you drop the mark. Once the bug is fixed you would go back to vanish->ambush.

spare cargo
#

@novel star appreciate it ty

#

so vanish in to what

#

mutilate or envenom

prisma sundial
#

do you not sim dungeon slice for M+?

west crown
#

If you lose mark

#

Get ma and imp garr in cds

novel star
#

you vanish into garrote

#

when garrote is in pandemic

west crown
spare cargo
#

So now i might have figured out how the mark drops actually

novel star
#

master assassin is a 6 second buff

#

you are not vanishing to apply crit chance to one attack

oblique flare
#

You can consume DN even with a fresh mark applied as long as it's 7cp

novel star
#

it doesnt matter what you break stealth with really

#

but it generally should be garrote

humble verge
#

youre running MA for ST raid*? or have i been reading too much into it

was it the build you posted?

oh no that was balen

oh wait i am too, im just stupid

sly blade
#

I read the discussion about shiv, and about how you're supposed to use it toward the end of kb, but the sims use it before?

west crown
#

Ignore

#

Before KB and at 8s if 2 shiv. At 8s if one shiv

sly blade
#

Okay, thank you for the clarification!

normal mist
#

The shiv rules didn't change at all

west crown
#

Sims being weird I guess on dsclice

sly blade
#

And dumb question, but are we supposed to use vanish as soon as able on single target? I know in m+ it can depend on the pulls and whatnot

west crown
#

Last 6 seconds of KB for master assassin and imp garrote

#

Or save it for certain spots where you will need to reapply mark

#

Like queen p2

sly blade
#

Alright, thank you very much!

Im seeing a lot of rogues with different builds

do i guess that wowhead is the good one

normal mist

there is no "good" one

#

There are a alot of variations of the WoWhead one

Wowhead can be the go to build for most people

If you're looking to improve further and try new stuff, you can read the pins and change your build with new sims

prisma sundial

theres a lot of variation with MA/TTK and SD and SBS along with sub in the rogue tree

this was the build that simmed the best for me, but as Eleem said this afternoon, sims are not taking into consideration the execute dmg from sudden demise. But everything is so close % wise that it doesnt matter

No

None of them are relevant

Poisons used to be slightly relevant because it's required for Venomous Wounds application

But now that we spread most of our bleeds with IC anyways and we press FoK on 2+ targets, it kinda doesn't really matter

You vanish for KB

!stats

prisma monolithBOT

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

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

upgrade myth track gear before crafting

if you mythic raid

offhand is very low value, especially if you do the recraft tech

You should almost certainly not go for an offhand craft

Offhand is the literal worst slot on all of your gear

conversely if you upgrade a myth track piece, 1. it's like 24 ilvl upgrade 2. the slots are more valuable

what do u guys think about teleporting out and respeccing ST just before last boss in siege of boralus to ST

#

should maybe be a time gain

#

we really suck on this last boss

No way thats a time gain

dawn heath
#

you use the teleporter out when boss dies

#

then u run in

#

u spawn at the giant

#

while ur group runs down

and triggers rp

#

u should only delay the pull by 5-10seconds

unless ur computer is from the 90s

i mean im doing

like

700-850k on that boss

that surely a big time gain

if your group is doing 3.5mil dps on the last boss

going to 3.6mil dps group dps saves 8 seconds

dawn heath
#

over 5 minutes? that math is no way correct

#

and its not 100k probably

#

its probably more like 2-300k

balmy condor
#

yes over 5 min

#

3.5mil dps over 5 min is 1.05bil

#

1.05bil/3.6mil

#

is 4:51.6

spec changes midkey are not viable until really high keys, and usually 2-3 members gotta do it, 1 members is usually whatever

balmy condor

it's actualyl

#

VERY easy math

#

that takes no more than 2 steps

dawn heath
#

i mean its probably a net neutral

#

i think the actual number is not 100k though

#

its probably 200k+

#

but would probably not be worth it

coral ibex
#

you have to gain more time than it takes you to go do the swap right

dawn heath
#

well yeah u dont lose much time cause ur forced to wait for the RP

coral ibex
#

or are you getting that done before you could pull the boss

balmy condor
#

here's the neat part about math and why I did 100k right

#

if 100k saves you 8 seconds

#

how much does 200k save you

#

:)

dawn heath
#

as i said

coral ibex
#

the fork on the left

dawn heath
#

it delays the pull by 10-15s tops

balmy condor
#

you can pick whatever number you'd like

dawn heath

if that even

#

so it would probably be a time neutral

hallow pelican

again ... there are other things that the increase affords u

idk who's dispel is increasing my throughput but I want it

#

I am in my zen

and I'm content with that

not a big time gain

he pulled out the kalky

dawn heath

8.34

#

s

#

per 100k

#

i will say though

having multiple people do this is 100% worth it

there is nothing to aruge about there

if everyone can gain 200k~~+ and we also delay the pull by 15s

vagrant tapir

does anyone know of an in-game addon that shows what builds are most played on a boss?

are there any other?

why would you do that

because you can cover all group kicks?

if you silence mobs

I mean ironwire + MA/Subter is insane control

it has a damage reduction component too

I don't think Ironwire affects the staghorns at all. the first segment of the dungeon has some casters too, though

i think there are more keys you can drop it in, i was just thinking there would be more discussion for it and not just 'NEVER DROP IRON WIRE' lol

worthy axle

I mean SURE you can drop it, but how much dmg is that 1 point giving?

blazing pumice
#

it's a 1% dps gain

worthy axle
#

What does the sim say when you sim it

mint valve
#

you take MA for it

#

because you go normal hybrid build from last patch

#

and instead of iron wire you go MA

#

so its pretty big no?

Dont you just do the MA subter TTK build now if you want MA?
