#

Well

#

BM got super butchered

#

So i guess ill focus on my assa again

#

:(

humble verge
#

:D

warm vortex
#

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

coral ibex
#

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

dapper cradle
#

Energy feeling ass outside of cooldowns in ST is normal

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+

sounds fun

humble verge
#

do you have this for the conjured pot?

#

or where i could find it

#

lol

coral ibex
#

you can just write /use Fleeting Tempered Potion

#

that's whats in my macro

warm vortex
# clever sapphire 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

i also thank you for answering tho, i'll keep track of stuff while i play 😄

coral ibex

you should be playing for envenom uptime and not spamming energy away needlessly

#

no

#

maintaining bleeds is a higher priority

#

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

stark nebula
#

I'm curious if Regicide/Regicide is BiS instead of Regicide/Blood-Kissed Kukri - is there a theory behind that choice for OH ?

spice surge
#

It doesnt really matter

stark nebula
#

so there isnt some magical swing timer or OH specialness about it>

spice surge
#

No

#

Its just stats

#

And stats doesnt really matter much

#

Can you use evasion on nexus princess to dodge the charge of the phantoms?

spice surge
#

No, but you can precloak it

#

And you wont get the debuff

fringe crater
#

ye that much I figured

#

was just curious if it was coded as an attack for evasion purposes

spice surge
#

Its not

fringe crater
#

k

#

Prob not worth cloaking it though, seems like cloak is invaluable in intermission

turbid harbor
#

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

fringe crater
#

Fair, and I guess for the sake of progressing the fight further having less people die from orbs is also nice

cerulean walrus
#

Brother just feint the lines lol

#

Cloak the charge

#

If you aren’t playing elusiveness on that fight idk what to tell you

dusk hatch
#

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?

spice surge
#

No you still need to move out to the correct spot

#

Or maybe the last one is technically fine

static glacier
#

atleast for me

humble verge
#

?

spice surge
#

it does not

#

Regicide is not coded as an aoe spell

humble verge
#

yeah

#

thats what i thought

#

rouge superior

humble verge
#

with bait and switch hero talent

spice surge
#

Or swap to elusiveness

humble verge
#

could maybe

#

but i can still cheat the 10% execution

#

with CD

balmy condor
#

Elusiveness is by far better on kyveza

#

It’s like not even a competition

humble verge
#

alright

#

i listen to daddy

#

btw @balmy condor have you ever experienced KB being parried?

#

cause princess just did

balmy condor
#

Yeh

humble verge
#

thats just weird to me

balmy condor
#

Don’t be in front of boss

humble verge
#

yeye

#

tryna not be

balmy condor
#

Happens sometimes

humble verge
#

experienced it like

#

4-5 times so far this expac

balmy condor
#

Ovi’nax is pretty bad for it

#

Well you also mostly m+

#

So makes sense

humble verge
#

i do raid tho

#

but its happened in

#

m+ lmao

#

more than in raid

balmy condor
#

M+ bosses can’t parry though

cerulean walrus
#

Homeboy getting parried by Joe Schmoe

spice surge
balmy condor
#

Yeah I guess

#

Shit game will be shit game

spice surge
#

Ye it is what it is

humble verge
#

maybe im just remembering wrong

cerulean walrus
#

And that’s why you need the banana peel slip parry WA

#

You’ll never forget when your shit gets parried

humble verge
#

whut

#

ah lol

#

keeps a statistic of parrys?

cerulean walrus
#

No it plays a banana peel slip noise when your shit gets parried

humble verge
#

rofl

cerulean walrus
#

You hear the noise? You call for a wipe

So I just ran a 8 GB, do these stats look correct? Pulled 1.93m overall. 633 ilvl. Should caustic be more?

humble verge
#

and since youre running SD + SB its dying faster

royal lantern
#

CT should be higher tbh

#

outside of that, looks normal

humble verge
#

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!

In M+ pugs should I not use Crippling Poison?

the new ring is good for assa ?

do we have the link to the ring sims

#

how much haste we aim on ST build?

novel star
#

we don’t aim for anything

#

all stats are good

lean plover
#

As much as sims tell you

novel star
#

yea

#

just sim items and equip them idk

urban iron
#

ye my stat wight are all baslance exactly...

novel star
#

don’t do stat weights

#

sim items

#

stat weight sims are trash

#

just use top gear

#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

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

and cause i assume it’s an energy question due to mentioning haste specifically here’s this command too

green pier
#

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

strange python
#

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

green pier
#

so... less CT and more envenom?

fresh kelp
strange python
#

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

green pier
#

i was under the impression it ramped

#

OK

#

TIL, will adjust, ty!

soft surge
strange python
#

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

mild rock
#

So if will spamming envemoms to caustic target cause caustic to do more dmg??

novel star
#

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

mild rock
#

So if pumping out more envenoms buffs caustic in a pack, does it matter how much cp u are envenoming?

novel star
#

it’s not for buffing caustic

#

the envenom itself

mild rock
#

Like cause of the rng for cp with fok

novel star
#

does aoe damage

#

you hit a 5cp envenom and the instant damage of that envenom

#

is aoe damage thru caustic

mild rock
#

Ah I see

novel star
#

so u just follow normal 5+ rule

strange python
#

Caustic is just

#

Damage you do to caustic target does damage to targets around it

#

In simple terms

waxen oyster
#

unless you forgot to mut

#

your bled up target

#

then the debuff wouldnt apply

strange python
#

Well ye then you don’t have a caustic target so OMEGAKEKW

waxen oyster
#

I’ve seen it alot

#

oh update in pins. ignore me

#

i swear to god

#

the hardest thing for me in keys is targeting the right mob sometimes

dawn heath
#

I had the worst choke of my life

#

today in a key

brittle tartan
#

what happen fren

dawn heath
#

look at me desperately trying to target the second golem

brittle tartan
#

OH SHIT WE GOT FOOTAGE

dawn heath
#

but unsucessful

brittle tartan
#

plater said nah you dont get to click this golem

dawn heath
#

holy fuckign shit

#

watching this back gives me anxiety

#

missing like 4globals

#

cause i cant targe the mob

brittle tartan
#

i do that a lot

#

how'd the key go in the end?

tired girder
#

does outlaw sim higher for anyone else or is it just me?

runic hinge
#

outlaw is a sim spec

#

give a spec wtih cdr 100% uptime and it shines

#

but also sims aren't usually to compare specs

dawn heath
#

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

slate crown
#

you can do /tar to save some characters fyi

#

instead of /target

dawn heath
#

cool thanks ill do that

slate crown
#

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

dawn heath
#

is it solveable through target to get a speciifc one?

#

if there are 2 of the same one somehow

slate crown
#

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

dawn heath
#

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

on mythic queen, are you using vanish for first webs or cloak?

balmy condor

vanish lines up for first webs in opener

#

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 ?

spice surge
#

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

wicked zodiac
#

@spice surge another question please , [Forced Induction] and [Supercharger] is woring 100%?

spice surge
#

What

wicked zodiac
#

Soo read the PIN on this new ring.

#

Sounds like it wont replace a max mythic ring for a few weeks ?

#

kinda lame

balmy condor
#

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

elfin flame
balmy condor
#

yes

#

commonly happens in grim batol third boss

#

is known

elfin flame
#

ahh k i knew of corrupt the blood triggering stuff but i didnt know how it triggered

W shit

#

love bugs

balmy condor

Insanely niche to be fair

but yeh kinda jank

balmy condor

!corrupt

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

balmy condor
#

good enough

blazing pumice
#

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?

balmy condor

yeh

#

bank can block yo phone?

#

forking stupid

rotund oak
#

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

sullen hollow
#

Are there any sims done with the changes to racials

#

Im blind i just saw what was posted in research

crystal glen

The TLDR was doesnt matter if im not wrong 😛

It doesnt

#

It litterally looks almost the same as before

are you ok?

ye, its obviously undead

#

at 6 CP's and darkest night up in ST we still mutilate instead of FoK, yeah?

clever sapphire
#

aye

weary spear
#

and only garrote if its pandemic?

clever sapphire
#

fingers were 1 to the right dracthyr_kek

clever sapphire
#

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

dont need sims for that

prisma scaffold
#

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?

novel star
#

yeah it’s all preference

clever sapphire
#

i like subterfuge because 12 seconds of master assa and iron wire is just a vibe

novel star
#

we have hundreds of different combinations of m+ talents that are all playable

#

pick what makes you feel good

clever sapphire
#

i also cant forget about ambush in case it vanishes

#

ER i just cant feel so i dont care at all about that dracthyr_kek

prisma scaffold
# novel star yeah it’s all preference

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?

novel star
#

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

clever sapphire
#

cloak doesnt work (or maybe i cloaked wrong dunno)

rotund oak
#

just be a mage and AT/blink boss

weary spear
#

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

royal lantern
#

@spice spire :3

balmy condor
#

More crits more blindside procs

#

Better weapon procs

clever sapphire
#

i made da screenshots, whispyr said da words

balmy condor
#

Ya

#

Literally just proc harder

#

What’s the problem

subtle tundra
#

specs have 10 rng layers

#

sometimes win sometimes lose

balmy condor
bronze pike
#

for "fun"

balmy condor
#

Yes wow is obviously very skill based game that needs more rng

bronze pike
#

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,

balmy condor
#

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

bronze pike
#

shirly

balmy condor
#

Could not imagine it any other way

royal lantern
#

ofc you cant

#

cant see you in top logs, so you are not a top player with flawless gameplay

balmy condor
#

Wow ouch

#

That one hurt

bronze pike
#

real

#

i have top logs in baiting outlaw tho

#

beat that

subtle tundra
#

i beat it yes

bronze pike
#

Impossible

novel star
#

don’t mind it being mickey mouse partition

subtle tundra
#

whispyr got that 100 on pure merit

balmy condor
#

True!

oak tangle
#

i had a 100 in LFR can i be a good player too?

subtle tundra
#

no

#

sorry but i spoke and when i do there is only truth

oak tangle
#

😦 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

subtle tundra
#

holy shit

#

WHO

#

who is playing poe, that can help you

#

i wish i had poe2...

oak tangle
#

i would say you should get it, cause it is fun

#

BUT

#

it is so clearly still in EA

#

im 141 hours in

subtle tundra
#

yes which is why i dont buy it

clever sapphire
#

sorry i had to

subtle tundra
#

theres quite a lot of missing content

#

besides all of the questionable designs

west crown
#

It’s good for the first playthrough. But I find myself struggling to want to redo everything on a new char

oak tangle
#

i've rerolled 2 characters and i just regret that i wanted to try different things

novel star
#

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

oak tangle
#

i don't think campaign is too long, but i somewhat agree on unfinished, as for balance, yeah not the best

royal lantern
novel star
#

not really

#

poe1 has a lot more diversity than 2 atm

#

could just be a knowledge issue though, new game and shit

royal lantern
#

i mean, it all looks allot like poe launch rn

oak tangle
#

i don't think that is a fair criticism though, one is an early access, one has been out for 10 years

royal lantern
#

back in the days launch

novel star
#

okay but nobody remembers poe launch that was 500 years ago

royal lantern
#

you know, farming frost res gear for the act1 Endboss

#

cus "lol you 1hit kill everything by default" was not a thing

oak tangle
#

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

novel star
#

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

royal lantern
novel star
#

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

#

maybe there’s just some shit i haven’t seen then idk

#

caught

royal lantern
#

tf you mean

novel star
#

that’s based lol

royal lantern
#

they cash on good will aswell

oak tangle
royal lantern
#

everyone does

novel star
#

the game is not ready

oak tangle
#

which is cause of the bs other companies do

novel star
#

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

oak tangle
#

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

safe shale
#

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

royal lantern
#

i honestly dont understand the complaints

#

its bad that they make new content that has minor Upgrades?

distant helm
#

People will always complain Shrug

#

I personally also like having to log on for something else then raid for a few days

safe shale
#

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

royal lantern
safe shale
#

Am asking

#

Am allowed to ask

royal lantern
#

and reminder that we barely have 500guilds with CE btw kekdog

safe shale
#

Yeah becuase no ones playing

#

50% guilds got to ovinax and said, nah fk this and quit the game

royal lantern
#

and very wrong lol

safe shale
#

Not really

royal lantern
#

this tier is just tuned VERY high

#

we had 1,2k guilds stuck on Court 2weeks ago

safe shale
#

You try getting high m+ groups going at this point in the cycle, no ones playing

royal lantern
#

its not "everyone stopped after ovi" lol

safe shale
#

Never said everyone stopped after ovi

#

So, weird response

sharp viper
safe shale
#

Thats not the same as "everyone quit"

royal lantern
#

now im confused

safe shale
#

50% of people i said

#

Yeah no shit your confused, you canna read min XD

royal lantern
#

or had people to die first

safe shale
#

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

plush wasp
#

Im confused how to Play with the 2 supercharger Charges. Ignore it or what? Srry im confused.

safe shale
#

Lot of people just gave up

royal lantern
#

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

clever sapphire
#

im confused by the question

royal lantern
#

you ignore that supercharger exists

#

its a 100% passive talent with no thinking involved

clever sapphire
#

i dont ignore it because i can finish on 5 to get the DS shit where i would have to build to 7 🤓

royal lantern
#

you use shiv->next finishers are stronger

safe shale
#

roughlu 1.8? you just make that up? abberrus, had 3000, vault had 2000,

#

So, not the same as always

royal lantern
royal lantern
#

and abberus is a anomaly, you know that

#

1 of the easiest mythic raidtiers we ever had

clever sapphire
drifting cloud
#

it also didnt have 3k

vagrant hinge
safe shale
#

700 guilds the tier before

vagrant hinge
#

sorry haha

clever sapphire
# vagrant hinge Yeah

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

vagrant hinge
#

Just loot skardyn and was playing with transmitor so i know this so well haha

clever sapphire
#

i would never play transmitter on assa

#

imo not worth the effort

vagrant hinge
#

Yup

clever sapphire
#

you will lose out that 0.7% gain just by making mistakes when trying to use the trinket

vagrant hinge
#

i love to see my orb falling in hole in gb

#

but yeah this trinket is good in number but so bad to use

clever sapphire
#

afaik transmitter always spawns at the same location so you can kinda controll where it spawns?

#

i wouldnt know since i dont have it

vagrant hinge
#

i dont know maybe yeah

clever sapphire
#

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

vagrant hinge
#

will keep it to play sub if i have to

#

Thanks for those information 🙂

clever sapphire
#

!corrupt

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

plush wasp
shrewd perch
#

Do we know of we are using the Ring ?

vagrant hinge
#

@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 ?

clever sapphire
#

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

vagrant hinge
#

Ok so its good to use even if i dont track my stack ?

clever sapphire
#

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

vagrant hinge
#

yup

clever sapphire
#

so you can press ovinax egg and skardyns at the same time

solar wyvern
vagrant hinge
#

i ask cause i didnt see lot of ppl playing with

#

Like 7.8% popularity on archon

clever sapphire
#

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

royal lantern
#

annoying to Play

the amount of people that killed ovi mythic multiple times is not THAT high

solar wyvern
#

Talking about ehh

#

Egg

#

Not the boss

vagrant hinge
#

Yeah ok so better to play a no brain trinket

#

gotcha

royal lantern
#

cus when you reach court, prog is getting saved until CE

vagrant hinge
#

Yeah i know i'm on court atm

royal lantern
vagrant hinge
#

Its ok haha

solar wyvern
#

I wouldn't play egg on court personally

vagrant hinge
#

Too much movement yeah

solar wyvern
#

Just minimize random movement as much as u can

vagrant hinge
#

Yeah will probably swith to another trinket

#

i have dead eye

Kingsbaned the target you dont have marked? Just panic swap between then with caustic and envenoms and lose all your damage!

solar wyvern
# midnight mist so i can kb off targets

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?

rugged umbra
#

memeing

spice spire
#

Zac isn’t even being serious

solar wyvern
#

Okioki, sometimes he says it so sincerely

#

And yknow outlaw players...

golden loom

I mean for outlaw the bladeflurry hits would hit the kingsbaned target and apply poisons so it works well during shadowdance

manic sphinx
#

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

spice surge
#

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

manic sphinx
#

i see. it feels nice tho, to get the energy - but yea, must be terribly inefficient

solar wyvern
#

The small adds on gb shouldn't die before the void pulse

#

Should get decent scent+rupture value out of ot

spice surge
#

They need to live a little bit so you get some scent of blood value out of it for it to be worthwhile

solar wyvern
#

^

spice surge
#

But ye gb last boss they should live long enough for it to be worth it

manic sphinx
#

Oh, interesting. Does that mean spread rupture individually? I still haven't really mastered spreading rupture manually

#

Completely new rogue, like 3 weeks in

spice surge
#

Yes, and/or time your vanish for it with your deathmark

manic sphinx
#

Loving it tho - its now my 'main' 😅

solar wyvern
#

On gb i spread 2 ruptures and keep on boss, any more you're losing boss damage

manic sphinx
#

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

solar wyvern
#

St plays similar to the m+ st rotation, you're just pushing buttons more

#

Since blindside procs give so much free energy

wise whale
#

And no SB

solar wyvern
#

Well you don't play around SB on bosses anyway, but yeah

manic sphinx
#

Oh interesting - yea, haven't looked into the talents and the playstyle yet. Only diff I was thinking was the double shiv during KB

solar wyvern
#

Yeah its not very playstyle different, you just feel very powerful in execute

#

Like almost impossible to run out of energy in execute

wise whale
#

The serotonin received from blindside procs

#

Pretty pog

manic sphinx
#

hehe, interesting

solar wyvern
#

On my latest kyveza kill

manic sphinx
#

Okay, might try out soem normals so i can learn fights, then go ahead and pug heroics

solar wyvern
#

I didnt need to use tea at all

#

Except for during shivs

#

Cause i was just getting blindsides

#

Like crazy

wise whale
#

That's actually nuts

solar wyvern
#

I was starting to think I should have ran SB haha

wise whale
#

Lmao

#

Imagine

#

But what would you give up tho

#

MA?

solar wyvern
#

Yeah exactly, dashing scoundrel or MA

#

But then i probably wouldnt have infinity energy without dashing so idk

wise whale
#

Feels so good getting them on pull too

solar wyvern
#

It was just crazy rng

nova python
#

question, if going from pack to pack is it more important to first hit CT after ruptures/garrote or envenom ?

wise whale
#

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)

sullen portal
#

always rupture first cause of CS and energy

wise whale
#

that's not what they're asking but yeah rupture first ofc

sullen portal
#

ah sry. after rupture garrote

#

didnt read it correctly

manic sphinx
#

but didn't realise should rupture instead of garrote

solar wyvern
#

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

manic sphinx
#

right

solar wyvern
#

Depends on pull size, i usually just do 2 garrotes unless its like a big pull

manic sphinx
#

yea, that's what im trying, garrote garrote, rupture, rupture, garrote (if more than 5 mobs), then fok, CT

solar wyvern
#

Pmuch, then u just go into cds and fok envenom

manic sphinx
#

kk 👍 thx

#

i try to also caustic after CT, but sometimes i forget 😒

solar wyvern
#

Oh yeah caustic is mega important

#

Its like a significant portion of your overall

manic sphinx
#

Just did an 11. But I think my profile is wrong. CT should be top, i figured?

#

i think im not CTíng enough

solar wyvern
#

No here one sec

#

Ill give an example

#

This was a quick 13 arakara

manic sphinx
#

oh man

solar wyvern
#

This was a DB 14

manic sphinx
#

that proves my missing caustic, lol

royal lantern
solar wyvern
#

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

manic sphinx
#

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

solar wyvern
#

Yeah you said youre doing 11s right?

manic sphinx
#

ya

solar wyvern
#

Sin kinda needs things to live

#

to really get going

#

So if things die fast, your rupture and garrote will be higher

manic sphinx
#

hard to get into 11s even, only done a couple 😅 ...rest are 10s

solar wyvern
#

but caustic should still be number 1

manic sphinx
#

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

solar wyvern
#

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

manic sphinx
#

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

royal lantern
#

you stun

#

thats it peeposhrug

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?

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

subtle tundra

you cant feint everything lol

royal lantern
#

idk

fallow canopy
subtle tundra
#

nope

#

feint is dogass on queen

royal lantern
fallow canopy
#

alr

flint comet
#

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

subtle tundra
#

drop sanguine blades in that case

royal lantern
#

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

flint comet
#

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

royal lantern
#

thats unironically kinda what you do rn kekdog

#

you test a bit and go with the thing you feel helps the most

flint comet
#

sudden demise feels good since one of my mates usually plays ret pala

flint comet
royal lantern
#

sanguine blades is the firsst talent you should drop for something else

flint comet
#

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

elder kiln
#

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)

spice spire
#

!nw

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

pale socket
#

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

spice spire
#

First second of cloak has super immunity and breaks most things

#

Anything after

#

You’re sol on some mechanics

subtle tundra
elder kiln
#

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 ?

elder kiln
#

ah i see thx

subtle tundra
#

cloak on last boss works

#

just like every other defensive

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
