What priority/rotation helpers do yall use? I was using MaxDPS, but it’s garbage.

SEVEARL PEOPLE TYPING: "none"

The breath/frontal from the first boss in Necrotic Wake is bugged and goes through cloak of shadows despite it doing magic damage.
To prevent this you need to have the first second of cloak up whenever the breath hits you, in other words cast cloak when his cast has less than a second left, then it will be immuned and you will not take damage.
Sidenote: You can also use evasion to dodge the breath whenever cloak is not ready.

#

yup

fierce dome
#

Honestly, kinda kicking myself in the ass for sleeping on leveling a rogue since vanilla. Been sticking to shaman, pally, hunter mostly. Rogue might just become my new main.

issa grind but it’s worth it

#

Assassination is pretty simple, you don't need a helper

fallen arch
#

Its probably overwhelming at first though

#

In heavy aoe

spice spire
ocean ore
#

Hey all! inside aoe situation (m+) it is worth not spam single target rotation with CS to proc more sanguine blades?

spice spire
#

And people need help

#

That’s okay

jaunty lotus
#

That's why we have guides, to help people

worldly sail
#

if assassination is simple, then how did i manage to send my cooldowns without pressing deathmark last night in m+? explain that, atheists....

#

Okay, so, next question: Subterfuge the way to go?

subtle tundra
#

bleeds are nr 1 prio
so you need garrote, then you build cp to get rupture up

#

then you need to envenom for KB

#

etc

spice spire
#

There’s several viable builds

#

Subt is very good tho

ocean ore
# spice spire Oh caustic > sb by far

got it, and another question, how can i handle the starving energy in single target boss in m+? i think that or im pooling wrong or im pressing everthing too fast

prisma monolithBOT
#

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
subtle tundra
#

i sometimes stay there pooling for 5 seconds

fierce dome
subtle tundra
#

cause i need to get rupture up and theres a kb soon

#

so i need the energy

#

great gay design

i hate 7 max cp

ty

novel star
#

what’s wrong with stratagem

subtle tundra
#

more cp -> higher duration envenom and ruptures

spice spire
subtle tundra
#

-> more building less finishing

spice spire
#

Raid is pretty concise

fierce dome
#

Oh, so running out of energy mid fight is normal. Been focusing on keeping garrote and rupture up for energy regen with envenom in between.

Name one other boss like that

#

First boss GB comes to mind

faint vessel
#

yeah depending on lines you may or may not have downtime

#

if youre lucky on lines and dont get picked for the rocks you dont get much downtime at all

fallen arch
#

But there’s almost no straight forward bosses like that

#

Or am I tripping

spice spire
#

Necrotic wake boss

#

Tirna scithe second

Uh

#

Third boss siege

fallen arch
mossy flower
#

Hey guys! Struggling a bit with my aoe damage. Been reading the wowhead guide but still wondering if I should "activate" crimson tempest and caustic spatter though more than 1 add in a pack of lets say 8 adds?

jaunty lotus
#

Second boss of GB is pretty much full uptime ST

fallen arch
#

Uh what is ur question exactly?

pine zephyr
#

!bugs

prisma monolithBOT
fallen arch
#

Spatter only works off 1 target

fallen arch
#

Ur never really energy starved that fight

mossy flower
fallen arch
#

U press it once on full cp

jaunty lotus
fallen arch
#

And the bleed goes out to all targets

jaunty lotus
#

Spawn adds?

fallen arch
#

It ports to the ship

#

And then 3 adds come out

mossy flower
jaunty lotus
#

You're thinking of siege, I said second of GB

fallen arch
jaunty lotus
#

Throngus

fallen arch
#

But it does spawn adds that chase u away and stuff

jaunty lotus
#

That's third

fallen arch
#

I need a red bull, you’re correct

rotund oak

#

Has anyone been playing fatebound since the the latest patch? How does it feel

jaunty lotus
#

It feels okay 50% of the time

coarse summit
visual marsh
#

im fairly new to assa, how do ppl do high dmg with kingsbane, like whats pressed before and during

#

also anyone noticed stacks/buffs getting fucked when u parry

solar wyvern
#

And yes parry is cringe

visual marsh
solar wyvern
#

Just wait till your Kingsbane is parried

visual marsh
#

oh id be fumming

gloomy heart
#

if a character has killed the whole heroicraid b4, even if i dont kill a boss this week can i get loot from that boss

visual marsh
#

what

lethal turtle
#

did i black out reading that

solar wyvern
#

If you haven't killed a boss that week then its loot table is available to you yes

visual marsh
#

Every week the loot resets

solar wyvern
#

If you killed the raid 2 weeks ago its not a prob

slate crown
#

Yeah unlocking the loot for vault is a one time deal on any difficulty iirc

#

like if you kill queen on normal that still unlocks heroic queen vault loot

visual marsh
#

That is after every wednesday, can check this when u press O ingame and go to raid > raid info

gloomy heart
#

My silken court was bugged so i was just curious

solar wyvern
#

Weirdchamp

warped shard
#

do you shiv before Kingsbane or on the last 7 seconds?

solar wyvern
visual marsh
#

but thats raid, where ppl run 2 shivs

slate crown
solar wyvern
#

Otherwise I'd be getting more than first 4 in my vaults xd

warped shard
#

with 2 shivs you do for the full KB duration?

solar wyvern
#

Yeah with 2 shiv its deathmark>shiv>kb

visual marsh
#

shiv>kingsbane then like he said last sec

gloomy heart
#

Do we think this is worth taking, it has so much haste

amber brook
#

sadge

solar wyvern
#

Since 2 shiv is 16 seconds total, and kb is 14

solar wyvern
visual marsh
#

anybody have a wa that shows duration of shiv on target? like a simple 1 icon

gloomy heart
solar wyvern
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
final star
#

probably in dungeons too tbh

visual marsh
#

these arent what im LF

slate crown
#

#

template

#

shiv

visual marsh
#

will look inot that, cheers

slate crown
#

WAs templates are simple to set up if you want something for that

#

but ye all of those packs will have a shiv icon in it

gloomy heart
#

Id have to sim the ring

solar wyvern
#

The ring is BiS no questions asked

warped shard
#

what talent gives an extra shiv charge?

solar wyvern
#

Lightweight shiv

#

Middle left of tree

final star
#

yeah ring is basically perfect for assa

solar wyvern
#

Crit value went up since .5 patch as well

#

So its even better than before

gloomy heart
#

I still need GB ring

solar wyvern
#

Good luck m8

#

I spent 1.5 months on gb

#

For trinket+ring

gloomy heart
#

LOL myth track or just hero

solar wyvern
#

Cant farm myth

#

Just hero

#

Replaced the ring later anyway with crafting xd

gloomy heart
#

Yeah i thought you couldve meant from vault

#

Ill force my friends to funnel me

warped shard
#

do we also rupture on 5+ combo points or is it better to fully stack it?

solar wyvern
#

Too much wasted cp to always go 7

warped shard
#

since the opener ambush garrote doesnt give me more than 5 CP

solar wyvern
#

Mutilating on 5

#

Sucks

#

Unless for DN

warped shard
#

aah offcourse

visual marsh
limber lion
#

Envenom is the only thing you would use 7CP for ever

#

And that's only for Darkest Night

#

There is no benefit to using higher cp finishers

solar wyvern
#

Yeah, if both mutilate strikes crit and you're at 5 cp

#

You just lost 2cp

#

So finish 5+ is best

oak musk
#

Just double checking: do we cast slice n dice anymore?

warped shard
#

nop

limber lion
#

No

oak musk
#

Nice

warped shard
#

does ambush + garrote always give 5 CP then?

#

can't recall from raid yesterday but i ended up Mutilating once every opener before rupturing

limber lion
#

Missing a bit of context

#

Are you using Shrouded or not

#

Are you using Improved Ambush or not

warped shard
#

the standard raidbuild

#

don't know all talents by heart yet 😛

limber lion
#

Then you get 4+ cp unless you crit with Ambush

warped shard
#

doesnt it always crit from stealth?

limber lion
#

No

warped shard
#

thanks

limber lion
#

Np

warped shard
#

also, how do you land on 1 CP when you want to get to the supercharged CP?

#

just a garrote?

limber lion
#

There is no supercharged cp's anymore

#

Shiv just increases the next finisher by +2 combo points

tawny junco
warped shard
#

oooh really? so that's a full "fire and forget" talent now?

limber lion
#

Yes

warped shard
#

i was sure i could see some blue combopoints yesterdat

limber lion
#

No minigame, nothing

#

You can

lethal turtle
limber lion
#

It's just an indicator to show you that it's active

#

But it doesn't mean that the first cp is supercharged

warped shard
#

ooooh

limber lion
#

The only relevant thing is that you can finish on 5CP with Darkest Night active

#

If you have supercharge

warped shard
#

back to my old Afenar WA then 😛

limber lion
#

So you don't have to go to 7cp manually

warped shard
#

it was driving me crazy so i installed Luxthos WA.. but for some reason i prefer Afenar's more

limber lion
#

I use a heavily customized Afenar

#

And so does Whispyr

#

Afenar is a bit outdated

warped shard
#

i customized mine as wel

solar wyvern
warped shard
#

but it looks a bit cleaner

solar wyvern
#

I was on a vet track neck for a while xddd

icy acorn
#

how exactly does forced induction work actually? is it just another +1 cp?

warped shard
#

i would assume it just counts as +3 then

#

instead of +2

#

hey guys

#

any1 find any tricks to reduce input lag for broodtwister prog?

#

grave kiln
#

Does anyone know why theres a wind totem on my back constantly, doesnt seem to be connected to a buff

#

is it some quest i have or something?

warped shard
#

Afenar looks a bit cleaner, less bloating and more compact

#

i also like the timers on the buttons better

ripe bobcat
#

i installed it once and thought; Nope for me 😄

warped shard
#

well.. i deleted alot of icons on both packs

ripe bobcat
#

maybe i try it again. but i configed my luxthos for me. very easy

warped shard
#

I guess it's just what ur used to

#

played with Luxthos for a while during raid and was fine tbh.. just a small edge to Afenar's maybe because i used it for longer

ripe bobcat
#

oh btw: on the luxthos u have a counter for targets which bleed. I cant make the number bigger etc. do you maybe know what to do?

#

changed font size etc. but only the position is changing

#

not the sioze

warped shard
#

m at the office rn.. but i remember having that same issue on my warrior

#

check Quaziis guide on WA, im sure he has a chapter dedicated to text

ripe bobcat
#

becaus i want it bigger and maybe more in the mid on my screen. or maybe another WA for that

#

ok thx

#

i try

#

hello question, ive seen ppl pop deathmark BEFORE the scarabs runs away and charges into the webs - is this just to have less globals in the 10second window? feels super weird doing that

#

Anyone have a WA that tracks bleeds on my target? Similar to the pandemic WA for locks?

prisma monolithBOT
hollow river
#

there's WA packs and Plater profiles listed there

ripe bobcat
#

luxthos has it. wrote it before. But i need it bigger 😄 for infight tracking it is to small for me

fallen arch
#

Anyone know how to make the luxthos envenom tracker stack like ironfur?

#

It now just shows ‘2’ when u have overlapping buffs

hollow warren
#

U have tabs there to change each category

slender badger
#

Is anyone macroing their cold blood to their shiv when playing fatebound ? I feel like it’d be fine in raid but maybe I’m missing something

slate crown
#

!wa LE collection has the Icon and Bar trackers for multiple stack durations (working up some updates to it currently but what's there works)

prisma monolithBOT
slate crown
#

Whispyr's pack has a reskin as well

slender badger
#

@slate crown oh fair point, it only works on envenom right?

solid venture
#

has anyone tried casualaddict's "new build"?

ripe bobcat
slate crown
#

In isolation an envenom crit alone from cold blood isn't huge

#

so getting it on cd isn't a big deal

slate crown
#

delaying it to a 1min cd is better because it makes it align more

#

with deathmark / edge case

winged wing
#

as a new rogue, one thing I can't seem to find info on is thistle tea, the guides mention holding a charge for Kingsbane, but not outside of that

#

also, is it off GCD? can I Macro it into Kingsbane?

slate crown
stuck marsh
#

Tysm!!

slate crown
#

If you're going to macro it to something, it would be shiv, though I'd still advise you single bind it

#

Or you can just ignore the macro and button and just let it auto proc, it automatically uses a charge if you drop below 30 energy

#

It's worse when you do that but not much worse, if you don't want to think about it it's not a big deal to do that

spice spire
#

I ain’t reading that essay

slate crown
#

(And to answer your question, yes, it's off the gcd)

macro to shiv will guarantee you get a charge back for kingsbane every time

If I converted 2 pvp/conquest pieces to set on my rogue, can I still gear properly if I wanted to PVE? Nothing hardcore, just some +6-8 keys eventually and heroic raid with my pve only friends lol

iron carbon
#

You can +8 without set tbh

elfin totem
#

So just forget about it and gear normally as if nothing happened 👍🏼

iron carbon
#

Yep, you can use your pvp token but I won't do it tbh

elfin totem
#

I can use my pvp token to get a pve set piece?

#

Which pvp token

#

Getting 1600 pvp rating token?

elfin totem
#

The one you get for hitting 1600 rating

#

Yea

normal mist
#

You can yes

#

Hero tier piece

elfin totem
#

Might do that since rogue is running 2 set in pvp anyways 🫡

#

What about the weapon token from the conquest achievement? Can that also be swapped for a pve wep?

or the shadow knife thing from delves is better

What ever your sim tells you

#

Probably spyglass

myth spyglass?

Spyglass at 639 > 626 knife

wise gull
#

yeeee

#

but check sims anyway

strange python
#

i see a lot of people running empowering crystal over spyglass so idk if its that good

wise gull

a lot of mythic trinkets are comparable

hey if im not taking sanguine blades, do i pool energy?

Probably still yeah

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.

strange python
#

so i dont take vicious venom or sanguine blades

#

so pooling is now recommended

#

this way we can mutilate more times during evenom buff

nova aspen
#

mut is garbage

#

pool for env buff uptime

strange python
#

ok but it builds combo to env

spice spire
#

The buff is what matters

#

Nothing else

arctic socket
#

Pooling is a meme now, you just basically do this… spam as much as you’re able during cooldowns outside of cooldowns play slow keeping up envenom buff

spice spire
#

The pooling is so we can keep buff going longer

strange python
#

only in m+ is where pooling matters... single target m+ bosses

#

right? - we dont pool in this case

spice spire
#

The probably comes from difference of builds.
In raid just send it, mega minor loss.
In m+ st yeah you’re gonna pool

arctic socket
#

During your cds in m+ you still won’t have a energy problems, just have to be careful outside of cds not to drop the buff

strange python
#

ok

#

ty

arctic socket
#

But if you’re playing around your teas properly with envenom uptime energy really isn’t a problem in my opinion

lethal turtle
cinder quartz
#

if you can do kingsbane correctly then the rest of the spec is just press buttons

silk sundial
#

is it worth getting different gems for the .15% crit bonus? When i sim it says to use all of the same gem

coral ibex
#

i think it’s possible to lose env if you literally just afk spam your rotation, you do need to do some amount of “pooling” to not drop env uptime at all

maiden lake
#

what % should i envenom on guys ?

coral ibex
#

like if you send env at 30 energy 5cp 0 tea charges and then need to consume DN you will likely drop env

Currently simming my box and it's recommending a hero track transmitter over myth track tier pants, neck w/ BiS stats, and myth dagger. The neck would be upgrading a champ track and the other two myths would be upgrading hero track. The transmitter would be upgrading a hero track coccoon trink. I've simmed against 5 and 8 target fights and it's still suggesting transmitter, should I disregard the sim since my primary content is M+ and not raid ST?

should i use empowering crystal or sacbrood on broodtwister along side grace?

lethal arrow

so im willing to bet itll be the ring

fallow marsh
#

this spec feels so alien to me now after playing sub for so long

arctic socket
iron prism
#

Nah i dont

#

Hero gloves, same hero ring, same hero bracers

strange python
#

Gloves would also be cheaper than having to double socket and enchant the ring lol

lethal arrow
#

also true

spice spire
#

Idk but most gloves you catalyze anyway

#

So you have a high chance to get them again either way

#

If that ring sims well

#

I’d probably take

iron prism

Ring has speed on it too

sonic zinc

chest has speed, m+ dagger has avoidance
i dont have a myth chest atm, but have a crafted dagger mh, hero oh
i just take chest here since dagger drop is free in raid ye? (also chest is .6-.8% increase, and a dagger is .8-1.3%)

limber lion
#

oh wow you got Crimson Tempest from the vault!!!

sonic zinc
#

yea

#

i can finally use it

#

took forever to get that spell

hollow stone
#

psure thats THE mythic chest too, right?

sonic zinc
#

yes

hollow stone
#

like, thats the offpiece we want

#

hard to pass that up

silk bane
waxen oyster
pulsar elk
#

Is it better to use droptimizer or top gear search?

sonic zinc
#

taking chest fuck it

foggy quarry
#

how do you sim to be the most accurate guys?

hollow stone
waxen oyster
#

And that will depend

#

on the rest of your gear

foggy quarry
#

for single target

hollow stone
#

yea, it will depend

silk bane
waxen oyster
#

So again its wrong to say one chest in particular is the definitive one.

hollow stone
#

but there is definitely better stats as a general comment when we’re talking max gear

sonic zinc
#

oh i wont take the m+ chest

foggy quarry
silk bane
#

The general rule of thumb is 5 minutes

sonic zinc
#

i cant take an off piece anyways

#

im already using this

waxen oyster
#

catalyze?

strange python
sonic zinc
#

no

hollow stone
#

but you’dd cc pants and use m+ chest, anyway, xiani is right since everyones gear is diff

waxen oyster
sonic zinc
hollow stone
#

ok well thats another factor lmao

severe sparrow
#

id love to see stats on how many rogues actually achieve the full "bis set" by the end of a season

waxen oyster
#

almost none

limber lion
#

Literally no one

severe sparrow
#

damn i was expecting maybe a single digit number, but you really think literally no one?

sonic zinc
#

my only proper options in my vault are raid chest or one of the daggers

waxen oyster
#

people will say they’re bis while rocking hero track gear

strange python
#

I’m sure it happens but it’s not many.

hollow stone
#

thats why its kinda sus being like “what should i take” cause the best answer is always “it depends”

crimson gust
#

Let’s goooo!

sonic zinc
#

and im pretty sure its raid chest since dagger can just drop in raid

#

and thats an ez get if it drops

severe sparrow
#

my side casual guild loves to be like "aw that's my bis neck" (as theyre progging the first half of heroic still)

limber lion
cobalt sphinx
#

bis is some classic andy shit

hollow stone
#

raid chest saves crests too which is potentially pog

sonic zinc
#

ye

limber lion
#

You sim a setup today

strange python
limber lion
#

And tomorrow it'll sim differently again

#

Then you sim it the day after, and then again everything's different

waxen oyster
#

by the time you kill mythic queen

limber lion
#

Different fight length, raid buffs, again different

waxen oyster
#

I’d be surprised you didnt send crests on chest

#

by then

sonic zinc
#

killing mythic queen OMEGALUL

waxen oyster
#

hero track of her chest is only 619

sonic zinc
#

well im not saving crests taking the raid chest

#

well

#

im saving liek 15

#

actually

severe sparrow
#

😭 youre being too technical for my hypothetical questions, i meant the one that is generically listed in the spreadsheet for st

waxen oyster
#

is your chest only 616

sonic zinc
#

629 chest in vault

waxen oyster
#

oh right

limber lion
#

Honestly it's not too bad

waxen oyster
#

damn you spent crests on a hero track piece

limber lion
#

Because we're forced to use tier pieces and mainly raid gear

sonic zinc
#

yes i did

limber lion
#

so the very few dungeon/vault only items are the trinkets basically

#

Probably a bunch of mythic raiders will get full bis

sonic zinc
#

my group JUIST started doing mythic raid

waxen oyster
#

all my myth tier came from m+ slot

#

so only started at 623

sonic zinc
#

yea my vaults havent had a chest

waxen oyster
#

not 629

limber lion
#

Full bis does require killing Mythic Queen Ansurek

#

So that will already cut down quite a bit of a chunk

waxen oyster
#

Yeah because the ring

#

tbh

limber lion
#

Yerp

sonic zinc
#

im taking chest

strange python
sonic zinc

fuck it

ill just get the dagger to drop on saturday

ez

#

the one time it dropped for my raid, was when i was on vacation LOL

waxen oyster
#

Therr has to be some spec

#

that doesnt like it

limber lion
#

It has been possible in the past to get full bis without killing the last boss

waxen oyster
#

i.e doesnt like crit

limber lion
#

But with the introduction to ultra rare last boss giga items

#

Not really happening anymore

sonic zinc
#

frost mage after 39.234%

#

or some shit

do i go zephyr for outlaw offspec or take legs to replace my current hero track legs

sonic zinc

do u actually offspec outlaw

hollow stone

thats a you question

Not if i….

cobalt sphinx
#

it could be simbait but that's kind of a taboo phrase

hollow stone
#

theres more rng and if its not pure st, it loses value vs ds

#

If that fits your definition of sim bait, then yes it is

#

only you can decide!

spice spire
#

A sim takes hundreds of thousands of iterations and produces an average

#

Sometimes

#

You’re a big flippa

#

Other times you’re a tiny flippa

cobalt sphinx
#

if only 1-2% of the top 100 logs of sikran and kyveza are running fatebound, it looks a lot like simbait

silk bane
slate crown
hollow stone
#

#1 explanation being that ds has more survivability which matters for kyveza

subtle tundra
#

there is so much bias

hollow stone
#

#2 being comfort, ppl are used to ds

#

im sure theres other possible explanations

small wagon
#

ds with no ER feels weird, im still coping

cobalt sphinx
#

most people are willing to give up a tiny bit of DR and alter their playstyle slightly for a dps gain

#

Kingsbane nerf slotted for December? 15%

hollow stone
#

Take a very small dps loss for less rng and more survivability

subtle tundra
#

idk i like misinformation

cobalt sphinx
#

the rng isn't necessarily a negative and it's not something that heavily alters your playstyle
