I've seen few rogues using Twist the Knife instead of Sudden Demise
Does it worth in m+ doing that?

candid sun
#

Single target, to my knowledge, with lust and t3 tempered pot, if I do everything right, no skardyns, i'll spike about 1.7m on pull

#

Then settle around 1.2m?

#

I'm probably being generous

#

Probably less than that

#

That's single target mythic tho

light moat
#

okey thanks 🙂

candid sun
#

I don't have a good reference for what I should be pulling

normal mist
#

Rest looks good @light moat

candid sun
#

I suppose I could drop io / logs lol

#

My biggest issues, at least in mythic, is upkeep on spatter and CT

normal mist
#

My max ST so far was 1.7, @ rashanan

light moat
candid sun
#

Spatter is such a weird fucking thing for me mostly because I'm swapping around to spread dots and then I lose my marked targeted / lose uptime on spatter

#

It's mostly me getting overwhelmed

candid sun
normal mist
#

Tldr pretty much everything is viable

candid sun
#

I run twist the knife over sudden demise personally

worldly dock
candid sun
#

Dropped sanguine

#

for iron wire

#

Was trying out various combos

worldly dock
#

Well iron is more for support

candid sun
#

Yeah, in my experience people don't fucking kick

#

So I run it as a safety net

worldly dock
#

yeah

candid sun
#

I guess I even commit sacrilege by kidney shotting to interrupt shit because people don't want to kick either -.-

#

Usually more of an "oh shit" for me

golden loom
#

I mean kidney shot is a very good button

candid sun
#

shrug half the time I see people being ironic and snarky over some shit in here so I can't tell "is this ok and correct or not" so I just play around with it personally

#

Personally, yeah, I think its ok but you prolly lose uptime / dps for wasting combo points on cc instead of flat dps

#

Prolly a tradeoff there

golden loom
#

Well its an infinite dps gain if it prevents death

candid sun
#

I'm still in the habit of being a CC bot from cata lol

#

Fair

royal lantern
#

i mean, you stun when you need a stun

#

that has nothing to do with losing dmg or smth like that

candid sun
#

Especially if it ensures someone doesn't get rekt I guess

worldly dock
#

Does it worht also to remove 1 talent from the vanish additional charge and put 1 into Lethality?

#

crit increase?

golden loom
#

Just play double vanish and you will have a way more enjoyable time in keys imo

candid sun
#

lol I run double vanish

worldly dock
#

and also
what does twist the knife help us?

golden loom
#

Single target dps

waxen oyster
#

All these changes are like

candid sun
#

RIP, I run double vanish; it's nice when tanks insist on chain pulling and not allowing restealth

waxen oyster
#

Sub 1% differences

#

It really doesnt matter

worldly dock
#

right.. so

#

its not gonna change everything

waxen oyster
#

anything really

royal lantern
#

you have 500+ combinations

golden loom
#

Yeah its all very similar

candid sun
#

So what, preference?

royal lantern
#

and they all dont really change anything

royal lantern
golden loom
#

Just run the stuff that makes ur life easy, double vanish, ironwire, sudden demise

royal lantern
#

if you have IC+spatter+kingsbane+CT, you have 98% of the aoe tollkit

candid sun
#

Like I don't mind taking a small gimp to AoE to slightly boost single target since I tend to always have a ret paly in my group who nukes shit in AoE anyways

#

Minor tradeoff I suppose

waxen oyster
#

I decline any rets

#

if they play male human

#

or male belf

#

ngl

candid sun
#

I pugged a fair bit of the time and took whatever I could get lmao

#

I am absolutely at the point to throw away any DH tanks I find though

#

Starting to fucking hate them

worldly dock
#

well only change im thinking is to remove Sanguine and get Twist the knife

waxen oyster
#

It really barely matters

golden loom
#

Well if you want more single target, do that but its also not a big deal

waxen oyster
#

if you think your damage is bad problem is you

#

99% chance

worldly dock
#

nah i dont think that:D

#

my sanguine is like 7-9%

#

its really good

waxen oyster
#

Tends to do that in lower keys

golden loom
#

It is the biggest single target change you can do though, ttk is full ST and sanguine is useless in single target

candid sun
# royal lantern if you have IC+spatter+kingsbane+CT, you have 98% of the aoe tollkit

I figure since it was said here we practically have our whole AoE toolkit, the lil loss from sanguine for ttk is just a bonus for single anyways. In my experience, I tend to have an excess in ret palys/enhance shamans i've played with anyways, so i'll just let them go daddy longdick in AoE pulls and just nuke the discerning trash mob / single target boss

#

Was actually considering running full single target, but that would require comp negotiation

#

e.g. who does what

royal lantern
# waxen oyster ngl

male human/female belf paladin with t2+ashbringer = whatever you do will be giga bricked

candid sun
#

I play fem human rogue

#

Slutmogged

golden loom
#

Based

candid sun
#

Judge me off that

worldly dock
#

Twist the knife… I read the talent but I can’t understand it somehow

waxen oyster
golden loom
#

I mean my rogue is named uwucutegirl so I cannot say much

candid sun
#

Mfw I had a druid named catgirlgfuwu lmao

worldly dock
#

How it help us for the envenom

candid sun
#

I love it

waxen oyster
#

ill trust a male kultiran in a murloc onesie

#

more

royal lantern
candid sun
#

I also have a draenei shaman named goatc

#

Warrior is trogmogger

golden loom
worldly dock
#

Does it affect the KB aswell?

golden loom
#

So instead of 30% application rate you have 60%

#

Well yeah cause you have more poison procs so KB ramps faster

worldly dock
#

ill try it next m+

waxen oyster
#

Me when i just play standard wowhead build

#

It gaps most pugs except enh players with more than 1 braincell

candid sun
#

Enhance players make me rage

#

I've seen them do stupid dps and still die to mechanics

waxen oyster
#

I had one ream me on dam earlier

#

Saw the chinese text from addons though

#

checks out ig

candid sun
#

Idk, I guess it's the fotm "gotta be competitive at all costs" bullshit

#

that annoys me

waxen oyster
#

Nah most fotm players kinda shit

candid sun
#

the "i'm going to play whatever class is good even if it's not my main"

#

Like I'm gonna dread when we inevitably get overtuned and stupid

#

and then everyone rerolls rogue

waxen oyster
#

i mean

#

rogue rn

#

is good in keys

#

thats why stupid questions are all over

candid sun
#

I'm a rogue main and still ask 'stupid questions'

worldly dock
#

well rogues are also squishy right?

candid sun
#

I guess I don't know what you're defining as stupid tbh

#

Most of my questions are contextual or ability synergy

waxen oyster
#

Basic "didnt read the guide" questions

worldly dock
#

😄

#

guess i dont use Feint enough

golden loom
#

Well they are squishy if you ask the 18 keyers

candid sun
#

I spam feint like my live depends on it

waxen oyster
#

Yeah because you're not enhance

#

having an aug rimjob you

#

all key

royal lantern
candid sun
#

Find you a cute uwu pocket healer

waxen oyster
#

play pvp for that tbh

candid sun
#

Healers are obviously submissive by nature

waxen oyster
#

pve healer players are just whiney

royal lantern
waxen oyster
#

when they do nothing

candid sun
#

Your resto druid friend probably thrives off being tied up

waxen oyster
#

hpriest players

candid sun
#

Lmaoo

waxen oyster
#

just perma dead in angel form

#

on cd

royal lantern
#

its a woman, and she is in relation ship with 1 hunter

candid sun
royal lantern
#

we have a tank/healer comp in our raid aswell

#

the healer is the guy

#

and he is the OG short king

candid sun
#

Is the tank a woman who gives him uppies

royal lantern
#

ye, so he can actually reach the PC

waxen oyster
#

I've seen like 2 female tanks

candid sun
#

Lmfao

#

Dead

waxen oyster
#

in my time playing wow

#

The stereotype classes go priest>hunter>druid imo

royal lantern
#

our maintank is a woman, 1 priest healer is, the co-raidlead is one aswell and plays havoc dh peeposhrug

candid sun
#

Ours plays hunter/lock

#

The other plays enhance and is giga sweaty

waxen oyster
#

Honestly

#

every good warlock i run into in this game

#

is perma depressed

#

24/7

candid sun
#

I want a chill lock friend

#

For some reason I just tend to like the personalities that main lock

#

I've met my fair share that are like, wired to think mechanically, are usually undemonstrative with emotions / not very emotional

royal lantern
#

warlocks are either chill af or the ultimate sweaty tryhards

candid sun
#

It's a nice balance

royal lantern
#

and the first guys are better at the game

waxen oyster
#

warrior players if they arent fotm melee buffs

#

are often old boomers

candid sun
#

lmao

waxen oyster
#

i've noticed

candid sun
#

Warrior and ret paly mains are meatheads irl

#

Meathead class

royal lantern
#

warrior player IQ is based on how meta the class is

#

warrior is meta = warriors need aid to breathe cus they are SO fucking stupid

candid sun
#

I love a good prot warrior tho

#

Ngl

royal lantern
#

warrior is bad = only giga chads play warrior, they went trought a survival of the fittest process

radiant raven
#

Arms warrior = best warrior, too

royal lantern
#

ye

candid sun
#

The currently unloved spec I guess

waxen oyster
#

if you ask warrior mains

#

fury isnt good rn

candid sun
#

smh

golden loom
#

Fury is fun as fuck

candid sun
#

Haven't leveled one

#

I play MM on my hunter

golden loom
#

Idk Rogue and warrior are probably only 2 classes I can be good at

waxen oyster
#

mid tier chad ig

golden loom
#

Too adhd to play casters

candid sun
#

I'd probably compare that to arms I guess given every hunter you find is either survival or bm

waxen oyster
#

at least its not bm

#

bm and ret pal players are

candid sun
#

I fucking hate BM

waxen oyster
#

"special"

candid sun
#

I don't like pets, I don't like pet management

#

I don't want to be lustbot

golden loom
#

Fury just has such a satisfying feedback loop idk

candid sun
#

I just want to blast shit and turn my brain off when having to think on rogue makes me tired

waxen oyster
#

The worst is when your lust class is a healer

#

i swear average healer main

#

never presses it

golden loom
#

I always whisper someone in pugs and assign them as the lust boy

candid sun
#

lmao

golden loom
#

Cba not getting lust on pull

candid sun
#

I wish they'd negotiate lusts more, I've had my fair share lately of tanks just going in, pulling, screaming LUST

#

then dies

#

bc they didn't plan it

radiant raven
#

My hot take: put lust on tanks. give them the lust button. really big warrior shout.

candid sun
#

Usually when I'm lustbot on hunter I'll flat ask

#

"lust on packs or bosses?"

#

Problem solved

waxen oyster
#

ngl when i tank

golden loom
#

Just make drums good and give lust to everyone

waxen oyster
#

i dont expect my dps

#

to press buttons they should

radiant raven
golden loom
#

Idk if they want lust to be a unique thing for certain classes in M+

royal lantern
golden loom
#

In that case make drums raid only or something kekw

waxen oyster
#

The worst

#

is when sham dps is meta

#

and they dont press it

#

????

golden loom
#

Mages are good at pressing it though, probably cause they are most affected by not having lust kekw

waxen oyster
#

unless they have their minilust

candid sun
#

Lol I've seen trigger happy mages lust too soon

golden loom
#

Also MM hunter having to summon their pet -> lust -> dismiss pet is so fried

candid sun
#

Yep

#

Whenever i'm MM I bitch to whoever is putting the group together to spare me the dps loss

#

Usually my friends anyways

#

"i can lust but fucking hell don't make me, find a dedicated luster, plenty of shamans looking for a group"

#

My guildie IS a dedicated shaman healer, has been for multiple xpacs

#

So usually I'm safe there

#

Shuddering hollow is bugged at siren isle atm?

#

It's been yes

#

Yeah okay

Took me about 4 hours to get fathomdwellers

shell crater
#

Heyyo, what should I be focusing on for stats? Some places tell me mastery, others tell me crit, any particular best?

rotund oak
#

!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

Yep, the one strat where you wait until the next event starts seems to guarantee the drop.

any idea how to fix the fcking citrine, since 6pm i'm tryng to get it

its fucking bugged

You just attack him

good

waxen oyster

and the event gives it

tepid breach
#

i killed probably more than 15 times today

#

and didn't get any citrine

waxen oyster
#

We call this in the business

#

a skill issue

turbid lion
#

if yes what works is to reset it when the wq is gone and wait till its back on and then let a hunter glitch the pet through the rocks to pull the old mob you didnt kill through the wall and kill it before the wall despawns in 3 min

tepid breach
turbid lion
#

that way the quest doesnt glitches out and you get the gem

#

that shit works but the hardest part is to coordinate 30 monkeys not to kill the mob

foggy stump
#

doesnt work in a Raid btw

turbid lion
#

idk about that

keen mantle
#

But the legendary gem does not have that high proc its trash fk sims i dont trust them

gloomy hinge
# waxen oyster and the event gives it

It does not, If you wait for the timer for the cave to open then go in and try to kill him, unless your group can kill him within 15 maybe max 20 seconds, the event will fail. The way people have to do it is use a hunter pet to pull him out DURING the countdown for the cave and kill it then

waxen oyster
#

We killed him inside the cave

I’ve had to change gems on the guide 4 times now

And every time I need to change it, I have to change it in 3 different places

It’s so cringe

How Hekili-able is Assassination? I want to do boss damage but my brain is full of WW and I got pretty good at using it for Feral

#

Or is the HeroDamage addon better?

They had someone do a lot of work so it’s very very doable

#

But I’ll say (specifically in m+) our boss dam kinda dog

#

In raid we’re great tho

Also big fan

I noticed the APL doesn’t have a determined opener, but almost no one codes that these days, we haven’t had it for WW in years

Extremely based

#

But yeah our opener is kind of set.
Like loosely? The only diff is fatebound and trying to bait edge case (I think, idr the exact hero talent because I’m an anti gambling man)

#

Seal fate kind of changes it but that is what you get as you play more

rancid wind
#

Much appreciated. I should have just committed to being a Sin one-trick instead of swapping to Feral in SL

#

I just want to hurt bosses and let others pad

spice spire

Yeah but Koji existed then smoge

But all the same, if you have any questions I do the lions share of the log review and you know whispyr is great at helping with whatever. There’s several helpful homies here as well, gl Babylonius

Hey guys, this is probably an already answered question, but is there anything special to try to do with Fatebound? Or is it, as the name suggests, mainly luck? Just the rotation and hope for multiple coin tosses?

Is there a bug with thunderlord damage with multiple rogues or multiple of a class? Seems like it only proc's for one person or very few times over a fight for others except for one person.

That was abit unfortunate

Btw does fatebound actually sim more

#

Thats interesting

So u play fatebound for st bosses?

N

winged sun
#

Then what

#

Or is it just dslice st

tawdry crypt
#

its like 40k more damage

#

in st

dawn heath
#

You can if you want to gamba

it's slightly more

#

but yeah

you're subject to more rng

next season we can rng the rng

#

Anyone with the gilded crest reduction know if its way faster to gear alts?

fresh kelp
#

i geared a shaman this week

#

idk about way faster

#

the crest increase from keys and the decrease in crafted costs

#

makes a big difference

#

if its a fresh alt you don't have that many gilded upgrades to do tbh so the gilded reduction isnt too impactful

gloomy heart
#

630 mage

#

is my alt

#

still need some upgrades

waxen oyster
#

yeah i mean you can get through the champ track wall much easier

#

with cheaper gilded costs

#

One of your rings being 642 and good instantly is nice as rng garbage as the ring is

gloomy heart
#

my mage has 2 myth rings but idk how good they are tbh

mage players are mean

manic coral
#

is max ilvl on ring 642 right now? i was checking some dudes raider io and i see it in 645

balmy condor
#

Every time you faction change it resets the quest

#

There’s some lifeless fuckface out there who faction changed 5x

coral ibex
#

yea for an 89 on ulgrax

#

xdd

#

what a dweeb

balmy condor
#

xddddd

manic coral
#

ah lol

#

yeah idk i saw on speeds raider io and i just thought it was raider io that was bugged

waxen oyster
#

The same character or different ones?

manic coral
#

then i check wowarmory and yeah its actually 645

#

did stormbringers get nerfed btw

balmy condor
#

No gem tuning has occurred

waxen oyster
#

It's funny because i was tempted to buy one for an alt due to it being on sale rn

balmy condor
#

It’s the weekend before Christmas

#

Who tf gonna do gem tuning bruh

manic coral
#

i meant thunderlords crackling

#

haha the ones who dont celebrate christmas ig

balmy condor
#

99% sure that it’s a company holiday and even it wasn’t they are for sure on an end of year freeze

slate crown
manic coral
#

shi i dunno for us its only 24th and 25th thats off

#

but people still work on those days

slate crown
#

Same and same, but "work" that's being done is keeping the lights on, not making changes

manic coral
#

its crazy good pays thi

manic coral
#

working evening shift for me on newyears or xmas is legit 250 %

waxen oyster
#

I mean let's be honest....

#

There's only 2-3 gems that would be in contention

#

If tuned

#

I highly doubt they'd redesign most of these gems.

balmy condor
manic coral
#

no but surely you guys have bonuses for working on red days or?

rotund oak
#

8 crafts,some vault rng and u done

bronze pike
balmy condor
#

I mean people working hourly get holiday pay yes

bronze pike
#

so bad

#

for funzy

waxen oyster
#

Dude blizzard barely does tuning when they are on the clock.

balmy condor
#

But when you’re on salary you’re on salary

waxen oyster
#

Let alone on holidays

bronze pike
#

cause i know people who did it would cry that blizzard reverted ring back to current ilvl

balmy condor
#

But we all know blizzard ain’t that mean

waxen oyster
#

nah whispyr

#

people "accidentally" did it again

#

because faction change was on sale

#

!

balmy condor
#

Yeah surely

manic coral
#

why yall hating, bro just changed his mind 5 times

waxen oyster
#

since its acc wide

bronze pike
#

wtb orc or troll for paladin

waxen oyster
#

cant you do it on alts

balmy condor
#

I couldn’t decide what faction to play on main so I spent over 2mil gold on faction changes

slate crown
#

oh you were typing that as I was

waxen oyster
#

its $42 for 3 faction changes rn

#

so uhh

#

proably less than 2.4m

slate crown
#

oh

#

that's right, the sale

waxen oyster
#

I think the 5 changes bundle is even cheaper

#

per

balmy condor
#

Still a dumbfuck

rotund oak
manic coral
#

bro trust me i am

#

xmas is dead since like 10 years ago either way, its just nice to eat good food and meet the family realquick

slate crown
#

It's just not how blizzard (and most software companys) operate

waxen oyster
#

let's be real

#

if they do gem tuning

slate crown
#

if I worked hourly and lived on my own I'd def work on xmas as well for the bonus

rotund oak
#

yup idk and dont care about blizzard devs anyway

waxen oyster
#

it might make the direct damage gems better

#

thats the only other competitive gems

rotund oak
#

i care about my bank account only

waxen oyster
#

i hate the fact you can proc

#

multiple stat procs from skipper's

#

at once

rotund oak
#

how's that translated in pvp

#

if its diminished im sad

waxen oyster
#

likely nerfed

rotund oak

#

i have to redo the questline to get my alts ring?

yup form the vendors

manic coral

balmy condor

balmy condor

probably

#

if you think it was shit in like october

#

heya fellas. what professions you go with your rogue!? im trying to figure out what to pick up!

royal lantern
#

profs dont matter

#

its gold making, not player power

subtle tundra
#

wellll

#

herbalism is useful in mists

#

blacksmith gets you a small buff in stonevault

#

tailoring in arakara(less useful)

#

tryan youre bad

#

shut up

#

dont care about your opinion

royal lantern
#

mists is herbalist/night elf/tauren/druid

stonevalut is warrior/dwarf/blacksmith

arakara is tailoring and no class for some reason

CoT is engineering/Rogue/Priest

#

maybe say everything and not just the prof itself bozo

balmy condor
#

holy

#

tryan with the receipts

subtle tundra
#

He asked prof

#

I gave him the answer

#

He is a rogue already so he doesn't care about city engi

#

For a m+ hater you know kind of a lot

radiant raven
#

Engineering is the best profession because it allows for maximum laziness which is the strongest benefit to sanity.

runic hinge
#

It’s been nice on the new island using the rocket boots and then engi glider to go much further than the one the boots give you

royal lantern
oak tangle
#

Alchemist cause I cbf paying for extra pots

radiant raven
#

Having a teleport to every zone, comical ways to explode, a mailbox and repairbot and vendor. Engineering is glorious.

royal lantern
#

tbf, the mailbox is kinda ussules since they gave us 3 toys that so the same with the same CD

subtle tundra
#

i have a 0 cd brutosaur

radiant raven
#

But what if I need a fourth mailbox in an instance

#

You'd not want to be caught without a fourth mailbox

pliant remnant
brazen sluice
balmy condor
#

cause your dungeonroute is whack as shit

#

these things can happen when you sim unsupported fight styles

brazen sluice
balmy condor
#

mdt sims fall prey to local maximas

#

its overfit

vast patio
brazen sluice
#

aha , and inorder to sim for a big pull m+ , does Dslice provide enough source for that?

balmy condor
#

dslice is a generic mixture of all situations

hoary remnant
brazen sluice
# balmy condor dslice is a generic mixture of all situations

im no expert but i try to understand the right way to sim my class , i asked some streamers including zeroocool and some chinese top logs dmg about how they sim , it varies some says 5t 5mins , other says Dslice is trash and u should do 8t 1min and 1t 3min and balance between them , others says mdt route and here most are saying Dslice , reason being is that some rare items such as the neck from raid sims way less aoe so do i bother getting it or not for example

subtle tundra
#

💀

balmy condor
#

I got maybe 1/5th of the way through that

#

I'm not reading the rest

hoary remnant
#

Also simming m+ if you pug most is a waste of time imo. Sim more what you should do with 3-5, 5-8 target count. Singletarget etc

hoary remnant
#

There are 3 rotations for every class singletarget then up to 5 mob cleave/aoe and mass aoe

brazen sluice
balmy condor
#

yeah, so you're overthinking

brazen sluice
#

no comment tbh , ty for the help

subtle tundra
#

you can do all that stuff, or sim dslice and get within .1%

balmy condor
#

nah rather than sim dslice and get close enough, we'd rather play russian roulette simming random mdt stuff and hoping it works out

#

why sim a robust fight style with variance when I can sim an insanely specific situation with no variance

hoary remnant
golden loom
#

Whats the best way to sim stuff like ulgrax/bloodhound/queen etc where its still a lot of singletarget but you would take spatter instead of IB. Do you just go by a 5min full singletarget patchwerk still and say fuck it because its too marginal to care at all?

hoary remnant
golden loom
#

ah true I guess it works out like that yeah

hoary remnant
golden loom
#

yeah it was more like a general question, rather than boss specifics

i would never spend 90 euros

arctic socket

90 euros of gold tho

subtle tundra

if only that was true

#

then id only play wow for gold farming

winged sun

guys this build sims -1.7% to take ironwire but im dropping sbs

#

is there a better alternative?

#

there is probably not much of a difference with those buidls but im just curious

arctic socket
#

If you have played without sbs before that’s the go to

royal lantern
#

sbs is mostly a "feel good" talent tbh

#

you just do rupture>fok>rupture instead of Rupture>rupture

hey guys for low keys ( 10s) should switch sudden demise to twist the knife talent ?

spice spire
#

Why would you

lyric coral
#

idk i am just asking

spice spire
#

Oh sorry I’m not egoing here

#

I genuinely want to know why you think you would

#

Thing is there’s 600 builds and they’re all fine

#

If your logic is trash is 10% of the dungeon but 90% of the time I feel like I’m in a boss fight, yeah I could see it,
But sudden demise is better in lower keys because you provide add damage (also due to execute)

slate crown
spice spire
#

So in the end, the why is completely subjective and up to the player. I personally find that it’s not but that doesn’t make my perspective of m+ any better or worse than yours

spice spire
subtle tundra
#

Oh my main target dies instantly, let's play ttk so it dies even instantlier

spice spire
#

Listen - if you’re spending negative time on trash; I see it.
I wouldn’t do it but I can see it.
But that’s also why I ask their thought process in wanting to change SoCute

multi-dollar company btw

Possibly banned but i doubt it

Racial Changes makes it possible to do the Quest which gives you the Upgrade multiple time - its a 100% ban 😄

zealous osprey

solar wyvern
#

Hmm maybe i should sim ring at 655 later to see how much of a gain it is

#

For science of course

nova aspen
#

paying for racial change for 3 ilvls on 1 ring

#

thats profits

nova aspen
solar wyvern
#

Rollback at worst

#

Imo

subtle tundra
#

They didnt ban other things that were way more impactful

gilded belfry
#

this exploit makes them money. It'll stay in

solar wyvern
#

Well outlaw is naturally tankier than sin, so they just survived the exploit ban

subtle tundra
#

Just rollback it and make the punishment their money waste.

grim jay
#

ye they'll just say "thanks for the money, enjoy rollback"

#

thats it

solar wyvern
#

Hold on ill check not-even-close to see if i have enough defensives

subtle tundra
#

Suck my cock blizz

brittle quail
#

you really thik they care enough to rollback something like that ? lol they wont do anything especially since this one make them money

nova aspen
#

paying for 8 week early access on what is maybe 10-20k dps

#

yea i dont think they will do anything

royal lantern
#

if somebody wants to pay 100+ bucks on race/server swaps to upgrade the ring for 1% more dmg, they should send the person into a psyward OMEGAKEKW

brittle quail
royal lantern
subtle tundra
#

Apparently getting all raid buffs before starting a key is still a thing. This is a thing. It ruins the integrity of competitive m+

brittle quail
#

there is so many avenue to fight bots better than just doing wave

royal lantern
#

there are 2 ways you handle bots: ban extreme cases immediatly, and ban bigger groups in waves so they need longer to set stuff up again

subtle tundra
#

Imagine having a 10% dps increase over people not exploiting. That's a whole key level higher

brittle quail
#

it is just the lazy barely efficient way and

royal lantern
#

cus if you would focus on bot banning 24/7, that would be INSANE work force needed that nobody ever would do cus that would be insane

#

like, NOBODY does that

brittle quail
#

there is company that does that

#

but you dont need work force

royal lantern
brittle quail
#

just good system design to obfuscate the detection but banning pretty fast

#

sure man

radiant raven
#

Just to add to the reason for the whole wave approach, which is pretty standard

clever kindle
#

no it must be the experts who are wrong

royal lantern
#

im not a expert, never said that

#

but its somewhat common knowledge that ban waves are done for a good reason, and "lol they want to earn money from bots xddddd" is not one of them

#

(if they want to earn money from bots, they would ban 24/7 so the botters would need to buy acc's+sub over and over again btw)

clever kindle
#

I meant the people who have worked in bot detection and removal for 10+ years at this point, as well as industry standards

ocean quiver
#

That's just what I heard for other games so might be the same here idk

golden loom
#

think atleast thats what has been said for runescape ban waves

ocean quiver
#

Heard about it in other games mainly, if they detect the aimbot that they use for example, they can just keep running trials until it bypasses that trigger or whatever

royal lantern
ocean quiver
#

Anyway back to sin talk

#

Why do people always decline me in shit

#

I'm applying to 7's and some 6s (siege) and I just get declined

#

15min of applications all to just be declined, (618 ilvl too)

tall jay
#

Meta meta meta lol or the fact that ppl want you to be 630 to carry them?

jaunty sky
ocean quiver
#

Just cringe that it happens in low keys too

jaunty sky
#

Why take rogue if u can take a pala or shaman

ocean quiver
#

because it's a 7 ;/

#

you can run that shit with all healers and time it

jaunty sky
#

If u had the choice between 618 rogue and 625 shaman, who would you take

ocean quiver
#

I would take the rogue

#

every shammy I play with sucks

jaunty sky
#

Or 2k rio rogue or 2.3k druid

ocean quiver
#

a druid in a 7 can he even do any dps

#

how about a pro gamer that has numero 1 damage vs a random 2.3k druid. I would take the rogue

uneven plume
#

Ain’t no one checking logs on a 6 OMEGAKEKW

ocean quiver
#

💀

#

I did when I seen that 100 for key level

uneven plume
#

XD

ocean quiver
#

my life

#

7 maybe too hard for me

uneven plume
#

People are cautious at that key range. That’s the key range where alts buy boosts in bulk

ocean quiver
#

if people are so anal about that and check, they can see I am more than capable tho

uneven plume
#

They don’t know if it’s a true +7 or an alt afking for all their timed keys

ocean quiver
#

Surely they're using warcraft logs tho, if people are really caring that much about that they'd be checking, and if they checked me they'd see I can time a 7

subtle tundra
#

nobody is checking logs

#

especially for dungeons

#

even more so for a 6

limber lion
#

Literally no one

normal mist

Also

ocean quiver
#

I get declined in every key

normal mist

Also, when people invite people to their party, they usually see big number = better

Just push your own key

#

You have one for a reason

normal mist

You'd do the same

subtle tundra

#

Just gotta keep applying. Eventually the frustration of not getting into a 7 key will be replaced by the frustration of not getting into a 10.

if you did your own key

its a community issue
