lol
uh huh
Sorry im in a toxic mood today
ok
Thanks
very strange behavior
? Yeah lots of people like it
:D
Bleak powder feels like most of my aoe damage on pulls fyi :(
Imma do a quick test on dummies
Ignore the dps im low ilevel
But this is how much bleak powder did
and it's getting nerfed by 40% because it's bugged
time to craft that spear and swap to surv
heyo guys, im spamming a bit of assassination these days after some years of Outlaw and as you can expect, im struggling a bit in prolonged fights and packs ( both st and aoe ) with energy management. Ofc it comes cause im not used to the large but slow-to-regen Energy pool.
Does these energy downtimes comes from a bad managing of my Garrote and Rupture in bigger packs or it comes just from my Haste being lower than it should? it is some days im trying to figure it out but i do not know the spec THAT much
Energy feeling ass outside of cooldowns in ST is normal
!energy
Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. You want to be playing for the highest uptime on Envenom, and not blindly spamming away all your energy. Rapid Injection, Sanguine Blades, and Vicious Venoms all play into this gameplay.
- No, haste will not make this feel noticeably better.
- 10% haste only contributes to around 2 actions per minute
- You should be playing for envenom uptime in single target
Energy in aoe shouldn’t really be an issue if you’re keeping ruptures up on 5+
I mean they will realise that they need to compansate BM right
Right?????? (It's not like we have had a bug that is like a 5% or so dps decrease for a while)
bleak powder is the black powder of bm hunter?
Black powder in a South African accent
dark ranger passive thingy
sounds fun
TLDR
Your kill shot becomes so much bettetr
Becomes stronger
While beast cleave is up it does an explosion (Bleak powder) when it hit things
You auto attacks and black arrow (The kill shot replacement) have a chance to reset the cooldown of BA and make it usable regardless of target health
Every 3 bestial wraths it instead fires a black arrow
reasonable
yes pls
my brain turned off when you started explaining bm hunter, i didnt get past "kill shot"

should be fine now
manually typing in the trinket name every patch 
manually typing /use abilityname to play the game 
Ranged execute
yup as long as that line comes before the regular potion line
++
maybe it happens when i miserably fail to manage ruptures outside Indiscriminate Carnage windows, it can be. I'll try to keep an eye on it next keys
well, this can keep quiet my "you're a donkey" voice that keeps screaming in my head ahahha, thought i was messing something up badly during Single Target encounter
i also thank you for answering tho, i'll keep track of stuff while i play 😄
you should be playing for envenom uptime and not spamming energy away needlessly
ye probably is where my Fury Warrior ADHD kicks in and says "PRESS BUTTONS, PRESS EVERYTHING"
So if you have garrote not applied and you have no means of applying the improved version, just let it fall off and prioritize evenom and rupture?
Kk
I'm asking in re: downtime between burst windows when you're starving in single target mostly
That was probably the most confusing part for me

You shouldn’t be starved enough that you can’t upkeep bleeds
If you have to drop envenom to get bleeds back up, do so
noob to sin here do I run instant or deadly or is it different between m+ and Raid?
word for all content?
Yes
ty king
instant is for the 2 shit specs
I'm curious if Regicide/Regicide is BiS instead of Regicide/Blood-Kissed Kukri - is there a theory behind that choice for OH ?
It doesnt really matter
so there isnt some magical swing timer or OH specialness about it>
sweet. i got 2x Regi in different raids
not a assa player confirmed

Can you use evasion on nexus princess to dodge the charge of the phantoms?
ye that much I figured
was just curious if it was coded as an attack for evasion purposes
Its not
k
Prob not worth cloaking it though, seems like cloak is invaluable in intermission
It must be worth cloaking it, I did on prog
Not fought princess in a long time but you avoid so much damage from the debuff
Fair, and I guess for the sake of progressing the fight further having less people die from orbs is also nice
Brother just feint the lines lol
Cloak the charge
If you aren’t playing elusiveness on that fight idk what to tell you
when the charges are going through the middle can u just stand behind boss and pre cloak the charge or will that mess something up with the charge that comes from behind into the boss?
No you still need to move out to the correct spot
Or maybe the last one is technically fine
do you know if like, feint at all reduces Regicide damage+
?
i guess the only reasonable thing would be to use evasion
with bait and switch hero talent
Or swap to elusiveness
alright
i listen to daddy
btw @balmy condor have you ever experienced KB being parried?
cause princess just did
Yeh
thats just weird to me
Don’t be in front of boss
Happens sometimes
Except sometimes they can because blizzard does an oupsiee 
Ye it is what it is
And that’s why you need the banana peel slip parry WA

You’ll never forget when your shit gets parried
No it plays a banana peel slip noise when your shit gets parried
rofl
queen is also terrible
Ye
bro Queen has parried me like 7 times so far. Shes rude af
Never been parried in my life
So I just ran a 8 GB, do these stats look correct? Pulled 1.93m overall. 633 ilvl. Should caustic be more?
probably not, since stuff died faster in lower keys
and since youre running SD + SB its dying faster
yea prolly CT
I'm curious, what alts are people enjoying?
Mained rogue for like 6 years now but I'm finding every spec pretty bland because of the hero talents, but at this point I feel stockholme syndromed into the class - so want to know what other rogue lovers find fun!
tried to have an alt this tier, went with WW, im enjoying it so far
WW is one I was considering! It helps that I find MW fun too. I've tried an Enh shaman and found that fun enough, but dont think i could stick to it
In M+ pugs should I not use Crippling Poison?

TYYY
do we have the link to the ring sims
That abomination of a ring is getting tuned like every day there’s no point atm

Just check the pin Whispyr will update it whenever it matters
how much haste we aim on ST build?
As much as sims tell you
ye my stat wight are all baslance exactly...
don’t do stat weights
sim items
stat weight sims are trash
just use top gear
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Fatebound will generally want more crit than Deathstalker due to Deal Fate
- Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
and cause i assume it’s an energy question due to mentioning haste specifically here’s this command too

i'm really interested in this; i did a 11 DB with a rogue who I ended up chatting with because his CS was so high and tempest so low I wondered if i was doing something wrong
so this was his split
I just did SV +12 and got this (spatter is normally around 10% but yeah):
i was 1.8m overall, he was 1.64 (dawn isn't as much cleave)
is one of us wrong? 😛
i am basically doing the opener (spreading as many ruptures and garrotes as poss with carnage), getting mutilate on a big hp target for spatter, envenom for buff uptime and then just ripping FoK > CT > FoK > CT until bleeds are threatening to drop
Uh
CT does no initial damage
Theres no reason to use it as long as its applied
So you should just keep it up that’s all there is to it
so... less CT and more envenom?
throw a CT into your opener and do FoK -> envenom instead
Yes envenom on your big target is your main spender
CT is just a bleed you keep up
Altho this guy prob didn’t ct enough, so there is that
do you refresh ct during pandemic window or not bother
Like almost any bleed in the game you would want to refresh in pandemic yes
That is if the pack is alive for long enough
Theres times where spatter envenom does more damage at the end of a pull because there’s not much of a pull left
But if mobs are still relatively healthy always refresh ct
Ct big dam
So if will spamming envemoms to caustic target cause caustic to do more dmg??
yeah
envenom/kingsbane both spatter
deathstalker mark getting popped also spatters
when it says poisons it means nature damage from rogue spells basically lol
not actually ur autos
well them too but they’re small and don’t matter much
So if pumping out more envenoms buffs caustic in a pack, does it matter how much cp u are envenoming?
Like cause of the rng for cp with fok
does aoe damage
you hit a 5cp envenom and the instant damage of that envenom
is aoe damage thru caustic
Ah I see
so u just follow normal 5+ rule
Caustic is just
Damage you do to caustic target does damage to targets around it
In simple terms
Well ye then you don’t have a caustic target so 
I’ve seen it alot
What new rings are people talking about
Onyx anulet 2.0 coming with the new patch on this next reset
It’s a craft?
It comes from the new zone afaik
this
what happen fren
Watch musjanne and millions of other World of Warcraft videos captured using Medal.
look at me desperately trying to target the second golem
OH SHIT WE GOT FOOTAGE
but unsucessful
plater said nah you dont get to click this golem
holy fuckign shit
watching this back gives me anxiety
missing like 4globals
cause i cant targe the mob
does outlaw sim higher for anyone else or is it just me?
outlaw is a sim spec
give a spec wtih cdr 100% uptime and it shines
but also sims aren't usually to compare specs
i've tried to cook a target macro
but the problem is
there are 2 mobs with the same name
so it doesnt work
on some pulls
i have this
cool thanks ill do that
but yeah that's how some macros had to be, I recall in shadowlands making a macro on DH to kill the necrolord demon spawn, it spawned a demon with a random chance of being 1 of 5 names
so you had like 5 lines of /tar like you have for each of the names
is it solveable through target to get a speciifc one?
if there are 2 of the same one somehow
no, how could you resolve the ambiguity?
if there are 2, each of them has a unique ID but A) how could you tell which id is which, B) how could you impart that knowledge into a macro, and C) you can't target via ID anyways
yeah figured but i thought maybe if u tapped the macro twice it would cycle through the targets? but i dont think it does
it just targets the closest one
afaik
trying to target that second golem
and focus the 2nd voidsoul
during the gather
actually makes my blood boil
hot blooded
on mythic queen, are you using vanish for first webs or cloak?
it felt that way, just wanted to make sure i wasnt missing some kind of cd line up for later
Guys when i use shiv with Supercharger + Forced Induction with 3 combo points is a equal 7 combo points on envenon?
or 6 ?
If you use it with 3, it will count as 3+3, aka 6
If you use it at 6 it will count as 6+3, aka 9
@spice surge another question please , [Forced Induction] and [Supercharger] is woring 100%?
What
not bugged
Its not bugged no
ok ty

@spice surge I have question how do I become cute like you
Buddy look in a mirror
I’d slurp those dogs cleaner than any soap could make them
I'm tryna get a 22 inch waist like eleem with the dumpy behind it ya know
mewtwo build
a latina gf with mewtwo bod
have one of those, next
That aint me bud
Youve been catfished
dam
@balmy condor can I get context on this
on what
that is the context
🗿
It’s stormin out
that's goldshire rp
this is nothing like that
Soo read the PIN on this new ring.
Sounds like it wont replace a max mythic ring for a few weeks ?
kinda lame
as of now it won't replace a max mythic ring until blizzard decides to buff it
which they will
because this is the same shit they did in 10.0.7
hello idk if this is alrdy known information but if a mob with rupture is made friendly or becomes untargetable it seems corrupt the blood will trigger on whatever target you have selected. here is an example https://www.twitch.tv/shindigwow/clip/TameArtsyGoshawkStoneLightning-ZlpN1J2fTVO29kZL
ahh k i knew of corrupt the blood triggering stuff but i didnt know how it triggered
W shit
love bugs
ya true
this pisses me off
causes me to always mess around with my plater
!update
Updated.
!corrupt
Corrupt the Blood/Rupture Bug
Corrupt the blood can jump to mobs that are out of combat when the rupture-afflicted target changes from harmful to non-harmful
This is repeatable with mind control, but is most common on the third boss of Grim Batol when skipping the two elites before the boss.
You can avoid it by being EXTREMELY careful to not target anything when your target shifts, but otherwise not much to be done. Just be careful and aware as it is a niche bug that should not happen frequently
good enough
i'm dumb and haven't seen the bug, how does it trigger on the third boss on gb
if people select those targets after the first phase?
it's so over
Joever even
irrelevant but today im getting the corgi pup
gonna drive in about an hour to take it
gonna try from my brother's cellphone,mine is blocked(mobile banking blocked everything) 
the app takes mail information
and if the mobile banking is pretty active and real money is above
lets say normal
they kinda block activities from that specific cellphone/equipment in fear of hacking etc
its the app that does it
Are there any sims done with the changes to racials
Im blind i just saw what was posted in research
The TLDR was doesnt matter if im not wrong 😛
nelf is still the master race
ye, its obviously undead
at 6 CP's and darkest night up in ST we still mutilate instead of FoK, yeah?
aye
and only garrote if its pandemic?
fingers were 1 to the right 
aye
well unless you are pressing vanish during your dm+kb
you would just garrote there for the imp garrote value for those last x seconds
copy
darkflight+sprint will be ZOOMING
dont need sims for that

Hi guys for talent builds in mplus, is both the dbl vanish and the super charger build good? I have seem people run different variations so is it more of a run what you prefer thing?
yeah it’s all preference
i like subterfuge because 12 seconds of master assa and iron wire is just a vibe
we have hundreds of different combinations of m+ talents that are all playable
pick what makes you feel good
i also cant forget about ambush in case it vanishes
ER i just cant feel so i dont care at all about that 
Oh got it. Just one more question, in mythic ulgrax do you normally just runaway from the pull or we can just cloak and survive the pull with the longer duration talent?
i just run away
never even tested to see if cloak works or not cause that boss is so fake
you can stay really close with the sprint speed anyway
so you don’t lose that much
idk
cloak doesnt work (or maybe i cloaked wrong dunno)
just be a mage and AT/blink 
Can you guys look at a couple logs and tell me why they’re so different? I don’t get why sometimes I feel like I hit like a wet napkin compared to others
Idk what the differences are
@spice spire :3
i made da screenshots, whispyr said da words

people want to add more rng/procs to my spec

for "fun"
Yes wow is obviously very skill based game that needs more rng
love love loveeee it
damaged based on whether or not i proced things on 8 spenders instead of 12 or if dp proced more
skill
every spec
i hope you proc more
havoc afi, sin weapon procs,
That’s why top logs in m+ and raid are flawless gameplay examples from prime players that have insane knowledge depth on their spec and conscious understanding of their actions at all times
Clearly
Of course
shirly
Could not imagine it any other way
ofc you cant
cant see you in top logs, so you are not a top player with flawless gameplay
i beat it yes
Impossible
U have the 100 rashanan forever goat
don’t mind it being mickey mouse partition
whispyr got that 100 on pure merit
True!
i had a 100 in LFR can i be a good player too?
😦 this hurts, mostly because I am 3 acts deep into chayula monk in poe, and i found out that leech doesn't work, for anyone non poe brained, that's kinda like me trying to do holy damage as a rogue
i would say you should get it, cause it is fun
BUT
it is so clearly still in EA
im 141 hours in
yes which is why i dont buy it
sorry i had to
It’s good for the first playthrough. But I find myself struggling to want to redo everything on a new char
i've rerolled 2 characters and i just regret that i wanted to try different things
campaign too long and game too unfinished sadly
balance is insanely off
most things straight up are not playable
and then there’s like 3 builds that break the game
i don't think campaign is too long, but i somewhat agree on unfinished, as for balance, yeah not the best
just like poe!
not really
poe1 has a lot more diversity than 2 atm
could just be a knowledge issue though, new game and shit
i mean, it all looks allot like poe launch rn
i don't think that is a fair criticism though, one is an early access, one has been out for 10 years
back in the days launch
okay but nobody remembers poe launch that was 500 years ago
you know, farming frost res gear for the act1 Endboss
cus "lol you 1hit kill everything by default" was not a thing
i like that they are using early access as a term for an early access, not the diablo crap where early access is just a marketing scheme to grab your money 3 days early
yea
i mean game has alresdy gotten a lot of huge good changes
so i’m not like dooming about it or anything i think it’s very fun
it’s just not cooked yet
the passive tree seems pretty incomplete
poe players going 3min without saying diablo Challenge (impossible)

and a lot of builds that should exist because the skills are in the game, don’t exist because they don’t have an ascendancy to scale with lol
i think it's mostly fine, it's more that we are missing 6 classes which will bring with them weapons (daggers, swords etc) that will enable more diversity
ED contagion is there technically but it’s like not viable to play
Can anyone explain me why transmitor is way behind than skardyn for me ? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/1nBbdT2nKSAvQd8Xt6UNs9
not true, my friend is playing a ranger poison and is in t12's
like mate
you have to pay for EA acess in a F2P game
tf you mean

that’s based lol
they cash on good will aswell
that's on the user for thinking EA means finished game
everyone does
the game is not ready
which is cause of the bs other companies do
you pay to test for them
that’s just like smart
and good
and cool
why wouldn’t u do that
if it works lol
they aren't out here telling you that the game is finished and you can pay to paly it 6 months early, they spent the whole lead up telling everyone how it was
also, i didnt pay for EA
$30 for EA is a barrier that keeps some away, which would otherwise have cooked their servers more on launch for a not ready game
maybe im a shill, but i can see that $30 as a much less of a cash grab and far more of a limitting factor to avoid f2p poe players logging into trying it, hating it, and then causing marketting issues in future
No really been following the ring shit, as im literally not playing the game, but, im i have 639 unbriss, and 619 queenie, this new rings gonna feel kinda rough to replace one XD, and likely wont replace the queen ring i reckon, i dunno, seems annoying to have another dogwater item that blizz will buff and buff till everyone is forced to take it and wait 6 weeks
XD
i honestly dont understand the complaints
its bad that they make new content that has minor Upgrades?
People will always complain 
I personally also like having to log on for something else then raid for a few days
I mean, its a bit late for mid patch no? XD
Yeha thats fair, but im the opposite, at this point, i just want to raid log
if its so late that its "not worth it anymore", then why care
and reminder that we barely have 500guilds with CE btw 
Yeah becuase no ones playing
50% guilds got to ovinax and said, nah fk this and quit the game
Not really
You try getting high m+ groups going at this point in the cycle, no ones playing
its not "everyone stopped after ovi" lol
can't be stuck on court if you didn't even get there yet
Thats not the same as "everyone quit"
now im confused
did the mage stop blinking
or had people to die first
There are numbers for this, the amount of players that killed the first boss, 5th, and 6th, diepicts, many of guilds, left the raiding at/after ovi
Im confused how to Play with the 2 supercharger Charges. Ignore it or what? Srry im confused.
Lot of people just gave up
alleight, and the number of guilds that aim for CE looks the same as always?
aka roughly 1,8k?
sometimes bit more,sometimes bit less
do you mean transmitter ahead of skardyn?
im confused by the question
you just play like always
you ignore that supercharger exists
its a 100% passive talent with no thinking involved
i dont ignore it because i can finish on 5 to get the DS shit where i would have to build to 7 🤓
you use shiv->next finishers are stronger
roughlu 1.8? you just make that up? abberrus, had 3000, vault had 2000,
So, not the same as always
that actually fucked me a bit on queen prog 
DN up, shield almost broken and i wanna do a 5cp envenom->charger makes it 7co and applies mark again->she goes immune cus p2 starts

2k is "roughly 1,8k" lol
and abberus is a anomaly, you know that
1 of the easiest mythic raidtiers we ever had
yeee that do be annoying, happened to me on first boss once
it also didnt have 3k
Yeah
700 guilds the tier before
sorry haha
well transmitter is generally a bit better, but you cant macro it, its a pain in the ass to get and a pain in the ass to play
Just loot skardyn and was playing with transmitor so i know this so well haha
Yup
you will lose out that 0.7% gain just by making mistakes when trying to use the trinket
i love to see my orb falling in hole in gb
but yeah this trinket is good in number but so bad to use
afaik transmitter always spawns at the same location so you can kinda controll where it spawns?
i wouldnt know since i dont have it
i dont know maybe yeah
also skardyns gonna be better in aoe because it gives 3k mainstat instead of a bit of haste
transmitters only use is during the usage
waht does this mean?
!corrupt
Corrupt the Blood/Rupture Bug
Corrupt the blood can jump to mobs that are out of combat when the rupture-afflicted target changes from harmful to non-harmful

Ok thank you. I will do as you tell me. Good day to you!
Do we know of we are using the Ring ?
@clever sapphire is is same than skardyn/transmitor for ovinax one ?
i mean simc tell me to always have 10/20 stacks, is this mandatory to be optimal ?
afaik 10/20 should be during your cooldowns
which is easily done because its also a 2 min CD to freeze the stacks
and outside of cooldowns its good to keep it at 10/20, but even like letting it get to 30 is only a 0.4% worse or some shit like that
Ok so its good to use even if i dont track my stack ?
i assume so ye, would still track it so i atleast have it lined up with cooldowns
the trinket is also off gcd with other trinkets
yup
so you can press ovinax egg and skardyns at the same time
Hmph tell that to ZskaRNG
cause its annoying to play with
because the minmax brain gets to you, and you wanna always hold it at 10/20 (happened to me)
and it was hella annoying to do that during princess prog
annoying to Play
the amount of people that killed ovi mythic multiple times is not THAT high
cus when you reach court, prog is getting saved until CE
Yeah i know i'm on court atm
need a hug?
Its ok haha
I wouldn't play egg on court personally
Too much movement yeah
Just minimize random movement as much as u can
No unfortunatly 😢
Dog it was 3 am
: 3
Happens to me too
But for some reason, rupture could consume deathmarks and I could get DN back up even if she was immune, but doesn't work with envenom
when would u play Sudden over MA in keys?
TIL CT consumes DS mark
well, all dmg finishers do
lost your mark target in aoe? just Press CT 3x and you have DN

GRRRRRRRRR
WOOF WOOF
WOOF
guys I know its stupid but I just wanted to share that I managed today the Mage Tower challenge! and I got the beautifulest set EVER!
thank youu ❤️
its a cool fight
I had trouble after the second blind mechanic because it gets hectic and I wasn't diligent enough for multiple pulls, leading to my death. I was swearing here like crazy, my wife threatened to turn electricity off 😄
you are learning the REAL strats now
Wouldn't be the first time
Kingsbaned the target you dont have marked? Just panic swap between then with caustic and envenoms and lose all your damage!
i dont even have kingsbane talented, 1 less useless gcd i could use my envenom to proc poison bomb with
REAL AND BASED
Correct me if I'm wrong, or you're just memeing. But doesn't kb damage ramp when the target is applied poisons? So if you're kbing an off target all your white swings aren't proccing poisons on your kb target? Isn't this kinda monkaS?
memeing
Zac isn’t even being serious
I mean for outlaw the bladeflurry hits would hit the kingsbaned target and apply poisons so it works well during shadowdance
Nah Zac is special
Np
For boss fights and stuff, is it okay to spend cp on rupture on little adds (e.g. gb last boss), to get refund on energy? or do i do use the cp on boss and just stay energy starved
even like flame elemental things on boss 3 in GB
Doing it right before an add dies just to "snipe" energy is not worth it
As youre pretty much spending all of that energy to get back to the 5+ combo points you had already
i see. it feels nice tho, to get the energy - but yea, must be terribly inefficient
The small adds on gb shouldn't die before the void pulse
Should get decent scent+rupture value out of ot
They need to live a little bit so you get some scent of blood value out of it for it to be worthwhile
^
But ye gb last boss they should live long enough for it to be worth it
Oh, interesting. Does that mean spread rupture individually? I still haven't really mastered spreading rupture manually
Completely new rogue, like 3 weeks in
Yes, and/or time your vanish for it with your deathmark
Loving it tho - its now my 'main' 😅
On gb i spread 2 ruptures and keep on boss, any more you're losing boss damage
Thx, helpful!
I think now that I'm kinda stuck getting into 11s, I might try pugging some raids, haven't done any yet - just to try ST and whatnot
St plays similar to the m+ st rotation, you're just pushing buttons more
Since blindside procs give so much free energy
And no SB
Well you don't play around SB on bosses anyway, but yeah
Oh interesting - yea, haven't looked into the talents and the playstyle yet. Only diff I was thinking was the double shiv during KB
Yeah its not very playstyle different, you just feel very powerful in execute
Like almost impossible to run out of energy in execute
hehe, interesting
On my latest kyveza kill
Okay, might try out soem normals so i can learn fights, then go ahead and pug heroics
I didnt need to use tea at all
Except for during shivs
Cause i was just getting blindsides
Like crazy
That's actually nuts
I was starting to think I should have ran SB haha
Yeah exactly, dashing scoundrel or MA
But then i probably wouldnt have infinity energy without dashing so idk
Feels so good getting them on pull too
It was just crazy rng
question, if going from pack to pack is it more important to first hit CT after ruptures/garrote or envenom ?
I like to CT first but I don't go too many globals without applying dsm
Also don't waste the global on ambush if you don't have to (i.e have DN up)
always rupture first cause of CS and energy
that's not what they're asking but yeah rupture first ofc
oh hmm, im starting to get out of the habit of always ambush first
but didn't realise should rupture instead of garrote
Garrote is kindof fake
In a pull you wanna basically go garrote(ambush if no DN), garrote, rupture, rupture, then either garrote or fok spam, CT, go into envenoms and cds
right
Depends on pull size, i usually just do 2 garrotes unless its like a big pull
yea, that's what im trying, garrote garrote, rupture, rupture, garrote (if more than 5 mobs), then fok, CT
Pmuch, then u just go into cds and fok envenom
Just did an 11. But I think my profile is wrong. CT should be top, i figured?
i think im not CTíng enough
oh man
that proves my missing caustic, lol
i was about to say 
Yeha my arakara is kinda scuffed because my tank kept chaining at 5% so im losing rupture spread
but top 3 should always be caustic, env, CT
in that order preferably
kk ty, u legend
i think i need to practice on dummies
could it also mean if my garrote and rupture are so high, that things are dying too quick? cos i find i still struggle to do everything before i can CT and then cooldown properly
Yeah you said youre doing 11s right?
ya
Sin kinda needs things to live
to really get going
So if things die fast, your rupture and garrote will be higher
hard to get into 11s even, only done a couple 😅 ...rest are 10s
but caustic should still be number 1
righto, thx!
Should i also be kidneyíng things? I kinda do it to helpout - but usually doing it with lots of CP. That would be a big dmg loss right?
or should i let the aoe stun ppl do their aoe stun, and bring in my blind in rotation
and obviously kick on cd
you can snap kidney/cheapshot if u see something major going off
but usually thats coverd by other cc
but in 10s/11s people are kinda
all over the place
and aoe blind is a good thing to fit in as well
hmm true - mroe cc the better at these levels
rather dps loss than a wipe and fail the key 😅
Also, in opener, when i've done my start and going into deathmark
should i vanish and reapply garrote?
i know it says always used improved garrote with deathmark
but does that include the opener?
cos by the time i get to cooldown phase, garrote feels like it's almost ending?
hmm, maybe it shouldn't - if each gcd is 1 sec. i see garrote actually alsts 18sec that should probably cover at least half of deathmark
if you need a stun
you stun
thats it 
lol, fair enough
@spice spire fast fast
any assa experts here
do i need % amount of haste for raid?
quick
im at 3%
ttytyty
@solar wyvern @solar wyvern !
Failed 11 NW - cos the ret left. But looks like improvement. Thx for the help!
1.59m dps, without an aug - my dps about 20% higher, i think, lol
then again, its NW, so i think we were pulling bigger
but yea, thx
13,37%
Still asking haste questions in 2024 cuh?
It's 2025 in a few days
Time to learn raidbot

In ST do we never use tea outside of dm/kb windows?
like do we use it on our shiv that isn't in kb/dm window

You’re talking about keys aren’t you
yeah in like stonevault first boss for example
cause shiv is every 30s and kb is every 1 min, so do we use tea during the one that isnt in kb window?
Alright thanks, last thing :3. Why do top logs spam ambush so much, don't you only use it once to apply mark and the mutilate for caustic
They have ambush as their stealth mutilate spot. And since they’re likely running subterfuge
They’re just mutilating instead of ambushing
Stonevault, 2nd boss the void guy with the orbs and the shiel. sakamara or whatever: When exactly do you collect the orbs?
Hi there. Can someone walk me through cooldown usage on mythic silken court? I see in logs that rogues use Deathmark on Anub'arash at 0:30, he returns back 0:44 with Entangled debuff, so we get only 2 seconds of buffed Deathmark on him. Why is that? Is that worth it?
If its worth living
then play outlaw 
what?
Got brood's trinket, what's the ideal use when it comes to stacks for the on use? Something like 10 stacks main stats or doesn't really matter?
Keep it around 20 stacks
Main stats yeah?
P1 intermission yoink
and the web explosions in p3
in m+ if you have a big group of 10 mobs: You open and basically make sure to have 5 rupture going and then jsut aoe aoe aoe right?
Is this week 1 or when the ring is maxed?
if you die to unavoidable dmg on queen rn, just fucking whisper every healer to tell them how dogshit they are
only thing you can die to on queen is webblades/waves combo
and you always have evasion for that juicy 20% magic dr
hey quick question, is it me or not going sudden demise feels really bad in anything below a 13?
idk, only 2 prog days on it, but deffensives didnt feel scuffed yet
sudden death makes the spec feel a bit better when stuff dies faster
you can feint everything and the hardest unavoidable dmg part 2nd yoink on p1 you just evasion + feint and shouldn't be an issue
so if you group is doing high dmg, ye its kinda bad, if the group dmg is on the lower side, it feels better again
you cant feint everything lol
i use cloak for the 2nd yoink
idk
obv an exaggeration but feint is really good so
your ass is dog
alr
what i think im gonna start doing is if i have augment I run Twist the knife, otherwise Sudden Demise, becuase having two more dps blasting the adds it makes them die too fast imo
drop sanguine blades in that case
eh, first of all, reminder that mosst of Sudden Demise value is on the 10% bleed dmg, not the "execute"
and 2nd, assa m+ talents are kinda a meme, cus there are like 500 combinations of talents that all more or less do the same dmg at the end, you just shift the dmg type around
like, you go from "CT does more aoe dmg" to "i do a bit more priority dmg and spatter dmg", but the overall dmg stays almost equal
yeah i guess ill have to do some testing just to see what it feels better for me
currently during either twist the knife or sudden demise
thats unironically kinda what you do rn 
you test a bit and go with the thing you feel helps the most
sudden demise feels good since one of my mates usually plays ret pala
might test this tho
sanguine blades is the firsst talent you should drop for something else
so drop sanguine blades into twist the knife + sudden demise maybe?
Hi, can someone can help me to look at the logs, to see what I'm doing wrong on the ct boss m+?! PM me pls. Thanks
hey guys, is it me or cos is fairly unreliable ? recently in bora it hasn't made me immune to 3rd boss aoe (pool explosion), and on last hasn't made me immune to the dot (casting it before the thing landing on me)
also 1st boss NW no immune to breath
This is super odd cause i'm quite sure i've used it plenty of times before and it did made me immune
Or am i mistaken ?
Same thing for evasion on last boss of Boralus, didn't reduce the dmg taken despite being cast before (like half a sec before)
!nw
The breath/frontal from the first boss in Necrotic Wake is an attack, not a spell.
In order to immune the the breath, you must be in the first second of cloak of shadows (“a moment of magic immunity”). After the first second of cloak of shadows has elapsed, the attack will hit you and no longer be immuned.
Alternatively you can use evasion to dodge the breath.
not sure bout the rest, but you can only use cloak into the last like 1 second of the cast for NW 1st boss. it's a physical cone (you can evasion it apparently)
that's a lot easier to type
First second of cloak has super immunity and breaks most things
Anything after
You’re sol on some mechanics
- 3rd boss in siege i have no idea what youre talking about
- last boss in siege, its not a cloak thing. you have to use defensive BEFORE the boss spits otherwise the defensive doesnt work on the initial dmg
- NW, read the command
weird cause i'm pretty sure i've used cos on bora last boss like this before and it worked
3rd boss it's the aoe when the swirling pools on the floor explode
wdym read the command ?
this
ah i see thx
well it sure hasn't and i just ran it, but prob cause i used it too late, during the travel time
as i said, it works just like every other defensive
i didn't know about cos 1st second, ty guys
i'll definetly change how i use it from now on
Yes
time traveler confirmed
Release the xmas outfits!
sorry to bother, there's a macro to use thisle tea on kingslayer/shiv?
!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
Not a bother at all big dog good luck!

i didnt know u could shadowstep queen on pull intermission until i killed her
fml

i was shadowstepping our warlock
not a bad macro though
Explain for noobs plz
when you are midair from the pull
you step her
and it stops the pull
or just stepping anything really
ye
So I don’t step into deathzone
issue is i didnt rly have time to experiment stuff because they already killed the boss
i wanted to just play it purely safe
no
even played vers flask
it puts you in front of her
Nah court was a bitch for a lot of guilds
ah
If you passed court it was fine
ye court looks tough af
didnt try her yet
jumped straight to queen

mega hyped for s2 tho
rly want to prog bosses again
any ptr chads know how much work need for ring 💍
ptr 😴
quick question, are we using clear witnesses proc in st?
btw we get season 2 ptr next reset or?
yes
or did they not talk about that yet
its really slow
really really slow lol
this raid is in one of the hardest tiers we had in a long time just cus of court/queen prog time for 99% of guilds
court 2weeks ago had ~1k guilds stuck on it lol
only if u do NOT have vicious venoms talented
