Quick rotation to just use in dungeons while I level the rest of the way 70-80?
In m+ if I vanish at 12 seconds left on kingsbane with double subterfuge is my first global out of stealth fan of knives?
apply bleeds then use fan and envenom
After you press shiv your combo points turn blue to indicate how many stacks of supercharger you have and your next finisher will count as having extra cp, thus doing more damage/having longer duration
Thanks 🙏🏼
but pretty much just use bleeds on the pack with ic and apply ct then use envenom but by the time you get all your stuff rolling the pack will probably die. Just garrote and rupture and ct as you open
Does mastery affect the damage from envenom?
Yes
Huh. Mine havent. Neither weak aura or standard UI
does mastery affect the damage of throw knife
Poison damage and nature damage are almost always the same thing
amazing
would someone having 4k more mastery than me mean their average envenom hit is 400k more?
Sorry if thats oddly specific lmao
Does combo points increase the damage on my dots or only the duration?
Both
By extension
Aight got one more question
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
In m+. Let's say i have deathmark up and kingsbane on maybe a 20 sec cd. Do i wait with my deathmark on a pack or do i send it
Personally, I would wait
Aight
But I'm not that good, only 2k8
no that doesn't take into account agility, crit chance, or versatility and 4k mastery is only 10% higher mastery, 40->50% mastery is only a 7% damage increase for affected abilities
haha we're the same but i played outlaw up here
So if better players got diff opinion, go on
alright thanks, so it affects it slightly, but theres probably other factors to it as well
Shiv usage
as in getting maximum envenoms within shiv window?
Yeah I thought that might be the case
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Sometimes I dont plan my windows properly and end up reapplying rupture within the window
still learning haha
Yup, no ideal
But if you launch shiv before rupture pandemic, you should not have to reapply it
does assa, have uncapped dmg? or softcapped?
noted
guys, while using Whispyr's Plater are orange cast bars more important to kick than yellow?
high
As far as I know, spatter is unccapped
Ye
Everything aoe is reduced after 5, except poison bomb which uses the old reduced after 20
Question for court. I see some ass rogues are holding dm and kb until the first damage amp
okay ty :), how easy is assa to learn?
anything wrong with this or no?
That’s fine
Idk about as easy as anything else I guess
It’s just manage dots and press cooldowns
nice
hey guys, how do we play with twist the knife? do i need to track the stacks?
Optimally you would want to refresh the lower of the two stacks
is 2T sim good for court? wondering because skar shows better on that as opposed to transmitter better on 1t
Yep
Can also use cleave add if you’re scared about downtime
guys deathmark and tempered macro bugged its not use pot can you try please?
That’s a pretty extreme downtime situation
But if you need a reference for how that affects it
Could use it theoretically
Haste bad
so if i understand it correctly, if you're at 2 stacks and cast envenom again it replaces the stack with the lowest duration?
!plater
Yep

prayin on yo downfall

I am new to assassination but as a 5 year Fury warrior vet it feels like there is a lot of downtime in the spec, specifically in single target when I feel very energy starved. Is it normal that there is / should be downtime in single target where I am just maintaining dots and envenom de-buff rather than pressing an ability every GCD? or am I just bad at managing energy / combo points.
Lot is relative, but yes, downtime is core to sin in most situations
There has been a lot more energy income lately but
!design
Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.
- No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
- 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
- You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target
11.0.5 has lead to higher apm with higher energy income so there's less downtime than there used to be.
so if i have 80% haste
i get 16 more actions per minute?
brb
whispyr dont read this
Just leveld my rogue and after a round of delves i endet with 11.222 vers and i thought thats the reason for the energy issues xD
What's the highest possible haste % we can get with current max gear?
Assuming someone has simmed.
heyoo guys after nerft which build are we using
We're about to find out
@slate crown did you ever end up making the envemon icon
I did indeed

The short answer is yes the spec is a lot slower in ST than fury warrior
it's also in my pack I just have it set by default to Load:Never
You are a saint
so it is disabled by default but you can enable it if you want it
rashan mythic still only counts boss dps for log?
!talent
what is the difference in gameplay for fatebound?
counts adds
Can you smite him @balmy condor? Just for fun?
no pls
you play cold blood, don’t ambush outta stealth for mark, and don’t have to hit any max CP envenoms to reapply. Can’t think of any other huge differences

anyone have an envenom tracker outside of a WA pack

- Can be pickpocketed from kobolds in e.g. The Ringing Deeps. (needs The Final Candle questline completed.)
- Only use it on one weapon. (does not stack)
Question about running MA on Ulgrax(and other intermission bosses): Coming back from intermission should I immediately vanish to reapply DSM or should I just do my normal DM combo and use Vanish in it's normal spot?
guys, how do u deal with this week's affix? cloak and that's it?
Crimson vial to help your healer out. Cloak only if big damage incoming/risk of death.
!tea
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:

@haughty lantern
Anyone know of a good keybind set up guide for assa? Or is it a whatever feels best.
I copy pasted this and forced myself to learn it for fun
It's pretty decent
At the bottom you can pick rogue
That’s crazy
Play what feels best
Keybind guides
I was very bored of the game and tired of only using mmo mouse 1-12. Made it fun coming back, felt like playing the game for the first time again
Died to a lot of common mobs at first though... 
Look my ret has 1-4 and that’s it I’m in uncharted waters
I wish I didn't get an mmo mouse cause now I can't play without it.
When I started playing FFXIV I tried keybinding a little bit but couldn't figure it out. Eventually went back to the mouse. After taking a 3-4 year break from WoW I decided now's a better time than ever
Mother of Christ
Made me laugh out loud
Z?!
I changed Feint to Z and Evasion is Shift Z now
I didn't like accidentally pressing Z and popping a massive defensive when I was first learning it
“Google: MMO Mouse”
Could someone help me decide which trinkets I should use for MITICAS PLUS and RAID?
mistcallers for both
imagine the amount of hand chum on that bad boy
😮💨😮💨😮💨
Like I said, I played the MMO mouse 1-12 with shift modifiers for a very long time and it did me well. Just was bored of it and I've always wanted to be the cool keyboard spammy dude
Way too much

what the fuck
I mean like, how long will it take for my brain to map this out…
Sim, however I'd recommend Skardyn's Grace as a staple, then Sac for raid and Crystal/Spyglass for M+
plays wow
develops mobile suit brain mapping
Question about running MA on Ulgrax(and other intermission bosses): Coming back from intermission should I immediately vanish to reapply DSM or should I just do my normal DM combo and use Vanish in it's normal spot?
Felt bad dying to common level 70's when I was leveling through TWW
any1 know how much extra dps sin rogues do in execute?
im crafting an everforged stabber, i craft it with crit and mastery right?
Me and my naga could pilot a suit from pacific rim at this point
If you don't know about it, I recommend crafting with different stats first. Then recrafting crit/mast (sim yourself) so that you get free dagger upgrades
I didn't know about that and because of that I have these 619 wrists that make me sad to look at
i already have another 619 in my mainhand - but ty for this info nonetheless. crit and mastery is the play tho right?
oh you said to sim myself - i cant read 😛
I used the Naga forever but when they switched to the trinity and it kept breaking on me I tried Corsair
Hated the mouse at first, but forced myself to play it for a month
Not so bad
I loved my og Naga
Thing was with me forever and went out like a king
one thing I learned about buying razor products is never buy the first gen of their new models, they never last long. Had my current trinity for well over 2 years and thats pretty good going for razor 
Tried to get my wife on the Razer train when she first started but she's a Logitech girl
Loves her G600 (I think that's what it's called)
probably, thats the popular one
also the one i use, but its on its last legs
going to have to replace it soon
hey after nerf we still play without sudden demise play with twist the knife and bone or without bone
I heard they stopped making them 😦 Idk if it's true but someone (oddly) told me about that this last week lol
and sudden demise
yup, dont make them anymore so any you find are insanely overpriced
bought mine for $60 a few years ago and now you find them at $200+
I finally feel happy with ilvl so I've spent the day killing raid bosses for parses and Rash sucks to parse. Actually can not get a good kill on this boss.
wtf, that's insane
Wife going to be sad to hear that
still using anaga i bought in 2016 with 50% discount
this thing is immortal
dropped to the floor many times
8 years deep
i might see if i can save mine
That's about what I got out of my OG naga
the only issue is it double clicking
there was one side button that was broken, the mouse fell to the floor now the button works agian
magic
mine did that for a while and then stopped
damn thats impressive! Is it the molten one, pretty sure that one was released around then
the shiv macro isn't working for me....
I remember buying that thing back in the day with all the money I could muster as a 14 year old kid. Internet used to get shut off frequently so I'd sit outside in a camping chair and steal wifi from the neighbor. When it snowed or rained I'd throw a blanket/umbrella over me, my laptop, and my trusty mouse. 🥲
this one but red
oooh the hex or what ever it was called
Is there a ppm on ocarina?
Its now a panel option for the trinity
dammn man, thats some motivation
Question about running MA on Ulgrax(and other intermission bosses): Coming back from intermission should I immediately vanish to reapply DSM or should I just do my normal DM combo and use Vanish in it's normal spot?
It's crazy looking at my setup now coming from that. Built my computer from scratch with all the best stuff I could buy (at the time) triple monitor setup, all the streamer jazz (because I swore I was going to be a WoW streamer
). Crazy how far I've come from that
The best is to have the buff on add
Ideally you go into the add phase with the DM buff so you can apply it to adds you kill
ith using the 3 stacks before
Then reapply to boss normally
i try going to add phase with darkest night
ohh cool, i dont think im capable of playing this game without this mouse tbh
can anyone tell me why this isn't working?
You have dragged the macro icon onto your bars right? stealth bar included if its on that one too.
yes
I want to get rid of elvui and plater, what are the alternatives if i want to customize my ui?
havent got a clue, I just use Atrocity's ui and that uses both of them
I can see the appeal of moving away from elvui but not plater, its so good.
what talent do i get rid of if i want iron wire?
ma
SB
kinda new to sin so don't know where and what it is:D
Have you given the base UI's newer customization options a try?
its awkward to use vanish for damage tbf
Apreciate it boys
MA is master assassin and SB is Sanguine Blades
if garrote falls off during DM, am I fucked?
do i loose the dupe?
I'm not sure how DM duping works actually
it will dupe the new one
No, i haven't. I'm trying it out now. I'm just a lil sick of plater and elvui eating up my fps for no reason.
I still use plater
and the duped version only lasts as long as DM right?
But I use base UI other than that and WA
yes
anyone else like when you get parried on 2 envs in a row
and your 2 stack env falls off
DM just opens up a copy slot for your bleeds and poisons that are applied, and any currently running or applied effect just has two simultaneous effects running
don't parries still give env buff?
pretty sure they do
@slate crown How do i get rid of the CP's under your picture? And is there a way to ignore debuffs etc? Just so i can see my own i don't care for others.
no
is there any minmax needed for amplifying poison before DM or do we not care
I was almost positive they used to, did that change recently?
No
what do you mean by not working 
like it won't shiv
or it won't tea
it wont tea
but raid is done for the night. im off to cool my brain down with some minecraft
For debuffs I don't think there's a way to ignore on the base frames, though I just don't look at debuffs on unitframes, anything I need to track like that I use WA for

they didnt go off
True, i just find it distracting to see i guess.
For Combo Points, there's no setting to remove it under your unitframe, but you can use a Weakaura to hide it, my combo point WA has an option which will hide them if you want, I think there's a standalone version somewhere someone made to always hide them
anyone use betterblizzplates and know where the setting to change nameplates overlapping is?
Is there a function to have the hover over effect from elvui on the action bars though? Like only show when you hover over them?
https://wago.io/qlNKqrPID Here's one that should hide CP perma when installed
Wago.io is a database of sharable World of Warcraft addon elements
I don't think you can do mouseover hide/show with base?
these are the options
master assain dead or not

Emerald Nightmare Surrender to madness Shadow Priest 

i just had the worst day of keys ever
bricked 2 stonevaults back to back
time a 7 stonevault
then brick an 8 mists
Just one of those days type shit? or what caused the bricks?
Well
The 10-9 stonevault was cause the tank had the brilliant idea to pull the entire hallway
We died 12 times before we hit edna and someone rage quit when we wiped to them
The 9-8 was going really well. Until I dc’d for 8 minutes and we wiped on Machine Speakers
8-7 was going ok? But then we wiped at .6% to machine speakers
8-7 mists was going really well! But we wiped twice to the last boss so oopsie! Too bad!
I mean the play is to pull the entire front hallway
Everything except the 2 packs in the room, it’s tough
its ok this was the 6 sv i just did
(yes im playing pally its fun)
only 611 but the big hammer bonking is very fun
WAKE OF ASHES WAKE OF ASHES WAKE OF ASHES WAKE OF ASHES
Then die
I do kinda wanna try pally but like
and i swapped to pally halfway through bc i got axe on it before any of the raid got it on their main
leveling another alt to 80
holy dead weight
Plus tbh im like… kinda really wavering in my desire to play. I feel useless without hekili and M+ isnt fun
Im really enjoying fury thane tho
M+ isn't fun without a team
Just press the glowy buttons
I pretty much exclusively pug my keys
no friends will sit through 40 GB in a week with you
while pugging
let me tell you that
I'm a class fantasy whore, poisons and bleeds just speak to me. I started playing mid wrath and have mained rogue since. I try to gear and play alts but I just keep coming back to assa
ive probably got some sort of undiagnosed condition 
I mean my guild leader always runs keys with other guildies 
I ran kiss of death and scroll of momentum up to the 1st boss of mythic so it is what it is
i'll help you out with my shammy alt when I can just send me a dm
i doubt people will accept two rogues
i've been enjoying enh shaman more than rogue kek
Good afternoon all . Just a quick questions about mythic plus would subterfuge build be the talents to run for keys now or would you say it's dungeon specific ?
you eu or na? and are you attached to your guild? The guild I am in formed at the start of covid lockdown and we've become like a family, but we are welcoming of all and try to include people as best we can. We have m+ nights to mix up the usual groups of people that tend to play together. If you are eu and are open to swapping guilds then you are more than welcome to join us 🙂
Enhance and Unholy DK were the 2 other specs that I do enjoy the most outside of assa and sub (fuck outlaw im a sneaky bitch not a pirate
)
wind walker is my guilty pleasure
ww is sick too
what do you mean without hekili?
i am a leather wearing dps, except druid
WW is pretty fun in small doses tbf, I don't know why but I get bored of it quickly 
i thought it was boring in raid but in m+ it was so fun to me
i did enjoy WW when serenity was played in emerald nightmare
it's problem is its jsut never the best spec for anything, they need to really show ww some love, its mid pack now, after being utter bottom for so long, it needs that time at the top
and in keys, the issue is you're stacking a melee class that buffs other melee, unlike dh which is a melee that buffs ranged
The times it did perform well were also cause of bugs more often than not too 
im not gonna lie i made a balance alt when convoke was broken
watching trill play ww though is cinema fr
and i loved that shit
i was maining ww this patch, but i left, because the hero talent was entirely passive
I don't have a cool mythic raiding guild but enjoy raiding, was hoping to do a little better but unfortunately pugs are take what you can get. Didn't have a chance to do Queen but maybe tomorrow.
Gn rogues, time to go hang with the wife.
Gn, enjoy 
Hekili is the rotation helper
Wait people actually use rotation helpers? O_o;
ugh, what's the secret to envenom? I'm watching people 5 ilvl under me casting more envenoms, doing more dmg per envenom. And it's driving me nuts
I feel reliant on it, while I grasp the basics of the rotation when it comes to the burst I falter and I feel with such a difficult mode as M+ im botching everything
I come from FF
The rotations in that game are way easier than WoW
Honestly i don't agree lol
i'm casting mine at 5,6,7 combo
do the rotation on dummies on repeat
it will eventually become second nature
Yeah i gotta
The FF rotations are way more strict that WoW rotations are
if you miss a global in FF all your buffs drift
But dummies are so fucking laggy for me..
the longer you keep using hekili the more difficult it will be to play without it
turn your mods off
and free up cpu cycles by closing things in the background
nothing will fix dornogal lags
I just re-did my entire UI and removed elvui, thats a start. 😒
redoing my UI
My FPS sky rocketed after removing elvui lol
What do I replace elv UI with tho
depends on what you need
I'm just using the base UI lol
i realized in df that i didnt use most of elvuis stuff anyway
so was easy to replace what parts i did want
With @slate crown WA's.
one big issue has to do with graphics settings. And making sure you're using your screens native resolution
i'll remove anything except plater
I can't preach this enough, I spend so much time on dummies so that I don't have to think about what I press. Being able to auto pilot your rotation frees up so much mental capacity to observe whats going on.
it's just too good
excluding some buffs and debuffs you don't need to track might help though
idk you run it or you dont
even my weak auras
nah not WAs
removing all poisons apart from deadly on plater alone removes so much clutter for example
bleeds and mark are the only things you really need to track with plater
the only thing you really need to track with WA is kingsbane window, subterfuge, and carnage

rupture garrote ct you can track with plater
no way you guys are raw dogging your ui
in raid it's harder tho
id say deadly is still good to track for cleave fights to make sure you are getting the energy return from your bleeds
nah i run 10 thousand WA and plater with mods
but i disable elvui in raid
but you're already spaming fan of knives
for cleave fights
you shouldn't have to track it
So from what im gathering, in M+ your opener in aoe is

woha, how do we get the thread skill?
I asked atrocity to remove some debuffs from his ui including poisons and apparently stealthi sat down with him and they made the list together.
We dont have that emote
I dont know who to listen to ANYMORE!
i like to go amb -> garrote -> rup -> rup -> garrot -> fan -> crim -> mut
I do 3 ruptures to get all the bonespikes out
then mark -> kings -> ect
But maybe thats not the best way to do it
nah do what zensen said
not necessary
bone spikes don't really add that much
if you're facing more than 3 targets
And from there
in 3 targets you ignore the second rupture garrote
Its just fan of knives envenom, keeping up dots and keeping up spatter?
yup
!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.
in the last 8s of kingsbane
My cat does that too when he playes
W cat
you forgot your double feint
I.e. walks on my keyboard
Source: WoWhead btw'
I dont have skardyn too!
but im a rogue too 😦
Yeah stealthi helps them out
yeah but its so fucking bloated
I used to but the guy I talked to for it quit
anyways I just had a good chat with atrocity and mal, I'm just blacklisting what I don't wanna see every update
no big deal
vault and queen ez
For every second of envenom uptime my lovesense vibe toy goes off so Im motivated to keep it up a lot
I also did it with SKB on fire mage
Every stack was a level of vibration
(This is a joke)
They still have mal shackled to that thing?

Poor guy
I thought he quit in like 10.1.5
you're on the rogue disc there is at least 2 people in here doing the same thing or worse so dont worry
He’s perma trapped
Atrocity cuffed him
he got upsetti when i left feedback about the envenom bar again lol
We’re rogue guys! Of course we hate open world combat!
speak for your self, open world combat got me GM back in the day
Pretty sure their envenom bar is mine
it's not
it isn’t
Any of y'all having any issues with KB randomly dropping off Ovinax?
At least Mal asked me if they could use it
it’s literally just the same with a stack label
I made the rogue envenom bar :)
well then idn
it’s awful
parry probably
literally useless
oof
falling off with 8s left, that'd be lame
Im using Le too
How the fuck does ovinax parry?? It doesnt have any limbs
Maybe they just haven't adapted it yet for theirs and are still working on it
or they did something else idn
I've seen it, his tiny arms be swingin
did you edit it at all to match the aui look
but still, losing kb is troll
!tea
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:
/cast Shiv
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
Get yourself a trickster rogue in your raid 
No I don't even know what their ui looks like
i've never lost it but that would be better than a parry indeed
the pandemic indicator is important for me and they don't have it
yeah it's kind of the whole reason I made something custom to begin with in the first iteration
In the DF days
Arguably it wasn't necessary
Cause like, just set a tick mark at 1.5 or w/e and that will always be good enough, it doesn't have to scale with combo poitns
but hey it let me learn about dynamic tick placement
without learning that I couldn't have made KB timeline
goat
i just made a completely static kb bar
back when i made mine
and just had ticks at certain percentages of the bar
for what they needed to show
I mean for most purposes that's correct
rarely was the dynamic tick placement actually like, necessary
i just had a trinket tick and a vanish tick
just got 8cp dn envenom parried. fun times. ill keep an eye out for positioning then. thanks for the feedback
though I guess the sounds on ticks were something unique that served a purpose
but again, didn't need the dynamic nature
side note when it comes to the bar for AUI its a WiP
they aint sure what they wanna do with it
yeah it's a tricky one for sure
cuz realisticly you dont actually really need to care that much about it
!pi
yeah
so its about finding the line
honestly that's part of why I was so late to making the ttk bar because back of my head I was hoping for, and thinking that, it wouldn't matter at all. In fact, I originally thought that there was no cap, with no stack limit, and that there was 0 pandemic because there doesn't need pandemic if it always stacks
and until the weekend before the patch I thought it worked that way, in which case, why would you ever need to track envenom at all?
just slam
There's no clipping, no risk of clipping
i love this

sabotage
idk this looks pretty accurate to me
tru thats me on ansurek
yo Whispyr the envenom tracker on your weakaura edit is so good
on 5 targets ww is apparently negative dps

WW monk was hasted, ww hit itself in confusion
WW Monk used DIzzy Punch.. it's not very effective
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/pQNTiRBgs8UfK46zp1FaGM
What do you think about this build? would be the best for overrall dps? just having fun, see the trinkets tho... weird
WW monk used high jump kick... But it missed!
maybe? you didnt simmed a single ttk combination so...
also, consider calmly if you should really drop iw
but if your goal is to do the best possible overall at all costs, ye i gues...
I dropped iron wire and then took 4 bolts to the face. So I learned my lesson.
why is this game so bad
i just wanted to come back and have some fun playing paladin man
spend legit two hours applying to keys to get one deplete and two that dont even finish
aware

what spec are you playing
well i was playing ret, but apparently prot is good now
so i guess i have to choose between having fun and actually getting invited to keys
no because i know i'll be back eventually anyway
also i dont have gold to begin with
It's hard to get invited to keys as DPS, just run your own key?
its not hard, just have 300 io and 10 ilvl over the key level you want to do
spend 50m getting declined or 50m waiting on a tank.
the ara-kara was my own key
went well
tank pulled 3 mobs at a time, ran boss into adds, and left
Yeah, if I apply to low keys I get insta invited, but if you don't stand out it's really hard, you have to go for the odd 1 DPS group
Run it again
no i'd rather consume cleaning supplies i think
maybe i just have to give up
and heal
like i do in ffxiv
stop being a doomer bro, suck it up and move to the next key
youre not gonna go on a 10 shitty key streak
So you would rather spend hours to find a group that has the same chance of failing and someone leaving, or play something you don't find fun, just to not have to make the group?
brother im not against making groups in general
i literally just did it
im just not going to do it again right now
we all go through it. it happens.
That kind of reads a bit different from what you just said though 😂
Sitting in here whining about drinking cleaning supplies is a bit much lol.
take it on the chin and keep it pushin
Yesterday you said tomorrow, just do it
be like water my friend
i mean it definitely wasnt meant to spiral into all this tbf, i actually dont care remotely as much as it seems now that so many people have responded
Bel you wanna know what's worse than the 3 keys you just did
ive been pugging keys for like 3 expansions, im used to it
40 GB in a week
you wanna play ret? then play ret. my buddy is like 2600 io as ret. people will take you. You just have to understand most people follow meta tier lists and only want 15 shamans and the best tank for every group lol. hell i even see +2 keys looking for lusters.
yea rerolling healer where you have even less agency in a key is a good idea
theres absolutely no shot you think healer has less agency than dps
in pugs specifically
i mean you kind of just disproved it right there though
3 bot dps in one key vs 1 bot healer
i have defensives, pots, vial
Well, you have shitty DPS standing in mechanics who think the healer should be able to save them in lower keys, that's as much agency as you have
a healer's ability to kill mobs is infinitely worse than mine is to keep myself alive
I did a 9 ara-kara a few weeks ago and the healer didnt know the mechanics on the last boss
bricked the key
if you have 1 shitty dps, it sucks but ok whatever
if you have 1 shitty healer, gg get fucked
hell if you have 2 shitty dps you can still do low keys
Thanks! btw are the double vanish good for the overall tho? Like in brief... Do I trust the sim? im worries about taking that mythic arakara trinket for nothing...
He's playing Ret though, rets literally don't need a healer there
true true
You self dispel and there's 0 damage outside of the poison
Bel my message to you:
Less dooming more pumping
again this got blown up way bigger than originally intended
and rets can bubble and do -50% of mechanics LUL
welcome to the sin rogue discord buddy
yes i was never saying i struggle to stay alive
Double vanish is fine yes
I’ll blow you up way more than intended how bout that
is that a promise
ayo
Oh my
from the CEO himself
its more ominous when you post it bc its literally you
Aaaand is it possible to Ovninax egg heroic beat arakara's egg? D:
yeah it goes from funny whispyr gif to predator
It is strange to post gifs of yourself I will say
I have mythic arakara but ovinax heroic keeps beating it
Whispyr, how do you feel when you see people use you as an emote?
bro I wish I had gifs of myself
If you can keep the stacks under 20, it’s good
!whispyr
If you can’t, it’s bad
gib dance back
but I'm an irrelevant basement dweller
I don’t particularly mind, most of the time it’s harmless so it’s chill
Would be safer to go arakaras? **super thanks for the answers whispyr
always talking in overall matter
okay okay thanks
ngl I miss iron wire, how much is master assasing? lol 3%?
hands behind your back
now
when streamer pin to say use iron wire
you should have both
if i want to try MA with fatebound what do i drop from class tree for sub, cause im assuming dropping CB is an int.
HAHAHA
drop IW and SD. take TTK and MA 🙂
Wait, I'm out of the loop, sin is not playing iron wire?
you dont play fb in aoe
-sd -sb +ttk +ma
Wait this hits
it did, indeed, hit
if im not chasing overall at the expense of practicality then whats the point of living
but...
dont play this
I was like... I dont have that shit on my shammy and im doing good, i dont need it then got one shotted in city of threads by casts
but whyyyy

because iron wire is better than sanguine
look i dont number crunch 🙂 i just see what top end M+ people run and what groups they run with and try to figure stuff out lol
Do key data have the talents you played? Or is that analysis based on logs + what the top played logged off as?
its based on the correct knowledge that 11 seconds of iron wire per pack is better than a marginal bleed damage increase that fucks up your ST energy management
based
and if we arent a huge fan of MA then we can just keep SB and drop SD and take TTK?
sure
But how much lowe will my number be at the end? That is all that matters
I would rather fail a key midway than have a lower number at the end
-50% because you'll get sniped by a free casting mob in the back
whats ttk?
twist the knife
acquire overall
big pumpers only
Ohhhh should i resim with ttk? what do i drop??
but i was top of the meters baby
I just see 3 failed keys
I always write "big Pampers" on my application, so they know I'm willing to shit myself to make number go higher
topping details in bricked keys 
thats the stonevault lmao
its fucked that follower npcs get to have first and last names
but i can't
one name andy

You can on details
My details name is ALWAYS "Horny Henry"
Yeah why can’t I name my female orc something cool like Chadeus Thundercock
that's exactly why
I have a hunter in my raid who used Brann Bronzebeard on details
at the end of amirdrassil my details name was Fyr'alath the Dreamrender
He would rage quit after wipes
just to rub it in that my alt pally got the axe before anyone on the main raid team
he is
(it wasnt but it wouldve been funny)
I'll take it
#1 baby
lmao
based

Can't play enhance though I'm not some fucked up chernobyl kid with 17 fingers
But you forgot iron wire?
im finding that im running out of energy on single target fights, how do you manage energu during these fights? Is it just uplkeep on garrote and rupture?
youre suppose to run outta energy
How to manage energy on ST: you pool it, which is a fancy way of saying you wait around and don't do anything
I’m slacking then
man that feels so wrong to do haha
Coming from outlaw it feels like absolute sacrilege
Brapp brapp brapp there is a new shooter in town boi
!design
Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.
- No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
- 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
- You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target
I didn’t take iron wire in a key what r u gonna do
(A rat mists)
hes gonna shoot you with a brapp brapp
Wish he would
make out with you
Even better
thats helpful
Thanks all
GL @craggy shard
i'm a fatebound enjoyer now
any recommended sim settings for mythic broodtwister?
nothing better than bursting 4m on pull
nah, you just kill it
First of all, get iw online, unless you know what you'r doing and where, the payoff of not playing it is not worth it. Secondly, the interchangeable talents are sd, db+sbs, ttk, ma and sb, and probably ds, but ds always sims last for me in any combination so... And in the rog tree 2/2 sub is probably best but not mandatory. You can combine 1/2 2/2 leth and wat or no wat. Consider that wat will always sim a bit higher than other talents cause it gives you an extra vanish chargue, and that chargue's value will get diluted through a 20m instance. But it also gives you a lot of flexibility for utility vanish so. NW for example wat is mandatory imo.

I ain’t reading that essay I’m ngl chief
can you repeat that but explain to me like 8yrs old
But listen to the man he’s right
no
says gucci_69
smul
hectic add cleave is decent; cleave add if heroic or below might work too, but take all with a grain of salt
or born during a 69....
yeah hes a kid for sure

@balmy condor hi whispyr yes im still shackled to AUI
Sylvanas was right bro, chains that bind us and allat
The only good thing about ff14 is laughing for 10 sec about you being a baby running around with a giant axe
Then it's over and you can log off
What is ds ni rogue talents?
god i wish sylvanas would bind me with chains
the cinematic feeling in some bosses is pretty sick
transitions and dialogues mid fight and mechanichs also
dashing scoundrel
Goonmaster Mal
you are missed
I didn't get that far, still have nightmares about being called back to the waking sands 30 times in a row
yeah 
wtf i dont even talk in here that much how am i the goonmaster @balmy condor
I felt the aura bro
Whispyr is labeling people left and right
Whispyr got that goondar
and for the record cause i read the conversation of the dude bitching and moaning about the envenom bar, yes its GOING to be LE's version, no its not out, yes its being tested in private because i dont want to brick the hard work Lisonna did, it should be out by this weekend i think
sylvanas fell off tbh
goon master sounds like a fun guy
Just do what I do and invent new bugs that can’t be replicated
I got off the "fatebound for m silken" train and became a sheep once again
Mald’s a nice lad
What fucking train is that
Where's the teaser?
the one in my head
I tried even more after your stream and still couldn't get it to happen
You gotta replace the rails brother fatebound in multi target is so cooked
is blizz ever going to address how much of a dirty girl jaina proudmoore is? shes been with lich kings to dragons...and still looks like shes 25
what bug?
if you look at @ breadzin on twitch hes testing it in his vod tonight
that is why I decided to give it up but I'm sad that I have to use brain power on the marks
Yeh idk
Appreciate your words appreciating the work. I know it takes a lot to get a pack together especially with a lot of moving parts 🫡
my brain does not have power to give
What about Brian
Worst family guy character, creator self insert
Brian for president
If you watch Whispyr's stream sometimes he'll envenom with 2 stacks and it'll set both bars to the same timer effecitvely erasing the second stack information, and I could never reproduce it even when I directly took whispyr's copy of the aura, it never happened for me and I haven't heard it from anyone else 
i have gotten that a bunch
I'm using whyspir wa and it happens for me too
i can't recall exactly what i did, but i think it may be if you are applying a envenom with less duration than what is already there
don't know if that's helpful, I may have VoD for that from today
oh yea it hates when you do that
well
that is an envenom bug
like 7cp -> 7cp -> 5cp
Like look at envenom's duration when you do that
the WA should match what actually happens on your buff
because of the bug
This is something different
Let me get you a debugging version then, Memz
but.. eh not tonight, don't have time
Nah vod wouldn't help, would need to see the internal state of the aura
i dont think i've seen it much lately, i'll go mess around see if i can get it to happen
I just haevn't been able to ever make it happen for me
Like that's a big enough problem for me to have not even released the aura had I seen it myself
I just never did
but yeah if you can find a reproducable pattern that would be helpful
Can you feint Regicide on Princess?
WA people are magicians I swear
yep still happening
Cool
I'll work on something I can send you
So uh
that's your version 😛 I would need it to be happening in mine

oh, then that isn't the issue here
IF you do 7 pt -> 7 pt -> 2 pt envenom
the 2 pt will munch the duration
which isn't what's happening to whispyr
o
Should be running elusiveness, so yes
replicated this by doing 7pt 7pt 2pt envenom
My guess is that its an issue of replacing an envenom with an envenom that’s shorter than the envenom replacing it
But I can’t confirm
I can try when I get home
But should be easily tested by running forced induction and double 10cp envenoming
this?
achieved by same methods as the envenom chomp
Yes, this
kk gimme sec
is that the same issue as this?
Yes
it sets envenom stacks to 2, but both at the same lower duration
No, see, this is just the envenom munching issue
If the bars match your blizzard buff, then it's not what I'm talking about
This is possibly it happening, again I'd ahve to see the envenom buff at the same time to see it not matching that buff, and if it doesn't match what blizzard has, then that's the issue I'm talking about
For fatebound ST the only thing you have to do is vanish envenom for the 2nd cold blood, otherwise the build just plays itself right?
looks sick
where is the night blade transmog
halloween mask?
daggers
king slayer
you hate to see it
I see, I assume that is log info and not necessarily the buff on the tooltip on the buff bar?
Yeah
There's not really a good way to play both iron wire and ttk right?
Other than some cursed dropping kingsbane thing
woahh
drop sd and sb
what server is your rogue @balmy condor i wanna check some stuff
Kiljaeden
moonguard
Interesting, then pick up ma?
ye
This is it happening here, if you watch the envenom buff on the top and the WA, they won't match, the next envenom after this timestamp it happens https://youtu.be/cIAGRJghLiU?t=10398
No Music on youtube cause copyright is just too much of a pain

mastery increases envenom dmg?
So Deasthstalker's Mark stopped applying in the middle of the raid. Relog, reload, switching to other hero talents - nothing seems to work. Is there some way to "un-bug" this?
Yes
so.......... when are we doing a request for iron wire being baseline in assa?????
care, you'r stepping in moving sands
theres a tendecy here for design arguments to get really personal
dont draw attention to it
I don't think that would ever be considered under the current talent tree design, maybe if we had smaller trees with like one choice every 10-15 levels between 3 talents, then there would be room for baseline iron wire.
How much of a dps loss is playing fatebound? Both in aoe and st
Ah I see, on the case I have on vod I keep spamming envs so the disparity of the wa and the buff isn't as clear as it is on that clip. I'll check tomorrow if I have any other case of that happening recorded
Thanks, appreciate it. It's really tough to pinpoint the exact issue when it's not happening to me.
Ideally, if you can reproduce it while on a target dummy, then we can get somewhere with debugging. Mid raid makes it much harder obviously
Going to try to put together a debugging version with DevTool at some point
this might sound dumb, but what version of your aura did whispyr fork
i'd assumed so, you guys are smart cookies
thanks
fuck GB im going to bed
I cant play DS even, i’ve test everything but nope. Hero talent abilitys do not show up…
i'm about to craft dagger, it won't have embellishment though, do i just slam mas crit and call it a day?
!tricks
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
What is the logic or procedure that the sim follows for Ovinax's trinket? to play always around 10-20 charges or varies? I have this big confusion of the sims telling ovinax egg 626 trinket is better than arakaras egg mythic one 639 *paired with Skardyn
It tries to stay under 20
Would beat it if I sttay below that most of the time? I know may be hard sometimes but with a weakauras i could track it a bit more
or by experience you can tell arakaras is just better?
this is the sim btw *https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sUgMFfpDMM8eTMRN2qTLs1
is there anything to do with having a TTK weakaura?

Well you wanna have uptime
So you gotta know if your stack runs out
well arent we not pooling atm anyways
youre just sending cds
envenoms
so whether u track it or not i would assume is irrelevant
Not pooling and not chaining are two things
so r u saying outside of cooldowns we are playing to hit pandemic timer and thats it
Does raidbot love to prioritise haste?
!up
Yes, you still chain envenoms as per guide
It loves to tell you what your current gear is lacking
But that's a bug, cold blood envenom tooltip says flip previous, so first cb envenom flips edge case, second one should also flip edge case, n then a vanish should double flip the edge case. But the bug forces a vanish after the first one. The bug also means we waste an envenom gcd in the MA window, n the forced early vanish means kb gets MA window in earlier part of the window than later. So perversely , deathstalker kbs can often beat fatebound ones cause they can chill n vanish last 6 seconds
hm, Ive got over 10% haste already

wrong class bucko
