nah I started in dragonflight and have tried leveling in classic countless times only to never hit 60 because I hate classic players. chores in games are fuckin stupid imo "ree its an mmo its supposed to have chores ree" whatever . retail.is hardly an mmo anyways
im ancient buddy
but yeah no hate lol was just wondering if the ring was actually a huge upgrade or not cause ain't no way I'd spend my hard earned time in a boring gameplay loop for 5% dps
Valid, imo. Play the game you wanna play. If you aren't pushing the content where it's really important, it's really pretty whatever and good gameplay will win out.
I mean you might aswell get the ring while waiting in group finder
nah ill probably just do something fun
u can get 10 rings by the time u find a m+ group 
same
but he can do something fun instead
some of the quests were fun
idk i just watch youtube when i do world content


The real prize of Siren Isle is Marmaduke, anyway
Actually true
facts
I usually play guitar while I'm waiting. honestly I just wanna hit 2k. didn't really play this season and was looking to get beyond 611 ilvl or whatever I am since season 2 actually looks good
I would say doing world quests is more fun than city of threads or siege of boralus or stonevault or necrotic wake
Just be aware that almost everyone will be expecting you to have the ring going into S2, as it's capping at 658 and probably won't be replaced until late Normal / early Heroic.
I kinds figured id get roasted since most wow players like most wow content. If m+ didn't exist i would probably hate wow
High ilvl on it helps with that as well
but wouldn't a booty ilvl ring from s2 be better on principle?
its high ilvl
since itll be way higher ilvl
the ring is 658
I mean yeah its high for season 1
while current 6/6 myth gear is 639
oh yikes
so 658 is like mid lvl heroic gear?
didn't know that
Around there
Like I said - it's not something you'll replace until late normal / early heroic S2 stuff.
You’ll def have it a while
Which is why people will expect you to have it going into S2. Some won't care, but some will
Even into s2 yeah
idk why they would do that when everyone cried about the onyx being relevant for too long
that's omega cringe
idk man u wanna hit 2k,why would u cringe anyway
even if u play next season its irrelevant
am I the only one that likes gear carrying over? like the thought that my myth gear gets replaced by LFR gear sounds kinda cringe tbh
wouldnt mind for legendariers tbh
I think it's fine it carries over, yeah. I like it because it's a boost going into S2.
Yeah i enjoy having some gear that lasts a while going into a new patch
Super easy free damage and stamina. minor in the end but not minor enough to ignore. One less slot to worry about
I mean the thing being relevant for that long gives me more incentive to work towards it. I was hoping to hear that it's garbage and not gonna matter in s2 because I just really don't wanna get it but now I might
Id argue its much better than the onyx annulet
like call me a classic andy but lvl 60 dungeon gear being relevant in final raid of the tier is kinda cool 😎
and takes alot less time than that thing
for what u are trying to do its irrelevant
it doesnt matter rly
True but if it's that big of an upgrade then it's be kinda dumb not to get it
then whats the point yapping about it idk
I didn't know they made it 9 trillion ilvl for some reason
Pretty much, yeah. And it takes no time at all. I know it feels like a chore, but it 's extremely quick.
for the amount of work, its the biggest upgrade of the entire expansion by far
It starts at 6..4 something. Then you upgrade it 6 times. You'll do that while getting the gems unlocked. It'll take like, 45 minutes to get most of it done.
I'm not yapping I just wanted to know the ins and outs before spending any time on it
mate, by the time you spend here being annoyed at it, you could have maxed the ring on 2 characters allready
that would be my endline man
Frfr
well that's not true because there's not a computer on this train
at least not one with wow on it
u could play the guitar
like, its not even a joke, 2 of the "quests" are "do a 2min thing"
1 was literally "hit the turnip toy for 50seconds" lol
and u will also probably encounter a rare on the runback from one of the quests and get a free upgrade on the way home
and in the end, that thing is 2%, like its not extremely gigantic deal
smh not having WoW to play on a train.
It's actually impressive how much better the acqusiiton for it is compared to the onyx ring from DF
see and they put this god tier item in the game and make you hit a toy for 2 minutes to get it instead of actually demonstrate that you're competent at playing your class.
imagine not having a french or a japanese train running with 300miles and satelite net with last gen cpu's in there
I feel like I am competent at sin rogue and I still havent gotten myth track skardyns from vault 
Where's my heroic transmitter with my 19+ heroic kyveza kills 

because its some minor sidegrade thing in a minor side patch that everyone is supposed to get cus its just a minor thing in the end
but at least you can get an omega bis item by falling asleep at your computer right?

Got it on my third kill
I've seen it drop from her twice lmao
"its minor but also 30 ilvls higher than every piece in the game"
We’ve had two nights where it dropped two lmfao
"and also bis"
Maybe you should join a night
Damn.
I only have a Normal one 'cos of the dungeon quest box blessing me. it's just Smolderon all over agian lmao
honestly I am so happy the ring released cause I am probably not gonna kill mythic queen, and the bastard heroic version of her ring never dropped either
"its minor and just a little goofy side thing that is also bis for every spec in the game, but it is minor"
dont wanna ruin anything but ilvl mostly applies as a gain for primary stat gains,rings dont have primary stat,its just stamina and the gems u get to attach
and sorry if that will sound like an insult because its not supposed to be one
but you said that you are not even at 2k score yet, so why talk about "why put an item not behind stuff that shows how competent i am at the game"
like, that is a REALLY far call there lol, just do shit
and the game rewards you for being good by giving the best items in like, every other slot afterall
they just made a single item in a small patch that gives people SOMETHIGN to do, thats all
I mean I'm not 2k because I've hardly played this patch
idk why its such a big deal for some people
then queue up for your dungeons and do the ring quests while waiting for accepts/until the group fills up

It gives you a physical ring model on your characters finger, which is pretty funny and unique.
I mean that is kinda cool
then dont and accept that you do 2% less dmg, which is something you wont even notice tbh
is it really only 2%?
......
Wouldn't it be more if it's going against a non-Myth ring?
well the 2% is compared to a 639 ring no?
@balmy condor how much is the ring over a normal mythic ilvl ring?
cause if he is 611 ilvl he wont have mythic rings
well yeha
yeah i don't have mythic anything
but if i am ilvl 611, i would be giga happy for such a big free upgrade lol
ye
Tyran's point is still good imo, though. It's whatever in the end. But people will expect it in S2 if you wanna do content early on
then why are you not getting the ring then
he doesnt wanna
if you have no mythic ring then go cyrce
like i said i played for like a week
well then he shouldnt complain
if he already knows he doesnt want it, what is he doing here
i can complain abot the ring cus it made me replace my queen ring i picked in vault on week3

I mean i might get it since everyone's saying it's elit3 special forces item
smh my head blizz killed my vault
was it 639 queen?
he's on a train currently,prolly nothing else to do
nah heroic
week3 MYTHIC ring would be some Liquid player shit 
I really wanna join this but I also dont wanna brick my lockout, REMOVE MYTHIC LOCKOUTS PLEASE BLIZZ
ill still use a heroic version of seal of the poisoned pact over this
hi. he here. I really just wanted to see if it was worth getting because I was hoping that it wasn't but now that the turn has tabled, I may give in and force myself to get it
i mean, its really not as awful as trying to get a mythic ring off the vault
gear doesn't really matter to me as long as I'm not leagues behind everyone and inting in keys
i mean, you are 611, literally everything is a upgrade
and that ring just says that 1 slot is finished for the rest of this patch and half of the next one
for minimum work
like i said I really don't care about gear as long as I'm not eons behind everyone with damage
I feel like leaving pretty easy power on the floor while going into key is inting in general, though. You'll be lacking survivability and free damage. It might be lower keys, but if you are not wanting to 'int' then.. it's a bit contradictionary?
You replace it with heroic ilvl next season
But it also will take maybe an hour to get it fully upgraded now
So it’s not a huge investment
is it really inting if people were clearing 10s week 1 with delve gear?
tbh, those people are not the same apes that run +10s rn
I mean that ring will be better than next seasons delve gear
keys late in the season tend to be kinda cursed
Were you clearing 10's in week 1 with delve gear?
like if im.not even close in damage then obv I would need to get it but I often out dps people way higher rilvl than me, at least I did when I played more.in df and stuff
ring this ring that, why don't you guys put a ring on a bitches finger and log out
can it be an onion ring
its kinda like if I would apply to a guild on queen prog atm with 626 ilvl and say that "liquid got world first with 626 ilvl, put me in coach"
Fuck that made me chuckle

no, I was working out of town for almost the entirety of this expac and haven't even really had time to learn these new dungeons let alone push in them. like.i said I have barely played tww
I guess closing thoughts: if u wanna have an item that will be useful for quite a while next patch, get the ring, but at the end of the day it doesnt really matter, just keep on keeping on king
the only reason I like wow is doing a rotation and doing mechanics. The questing shit is just abhorrently unfun to the point where I will straight up not do it beyond the campaign. One good thing about classic is that you had to actually play your class to clear stuff solo. if itll be good in season 2 then I'll probably get it but for the rest of season 1, Ijust wanted to goof around in lowish keys and learn how to play assa. outlaw die hard main but removing shadowstep was the final straw
assa seems pretty easy though. it's very formulaic compared to outlaw
so I'll probably get the ring but maybe you guys can help me out with my roto..I understand the opener and the shiv/kingsbane/tea timings and stuff but im struggling with when I should mutilate to spread caustic splatter vs when I should fan of knives
in aoe you just wanna mutilate every 10 seconds to refresh the caustic spatter debuff on the target
Word. spamming fok just seemed really low effort so I thought I was doing something wrong. I can just hit any mob with my bleeds and poisons on it to spread it right? or does it have to be the initial one that i opened up on?
You can only have spatter on 1 target, but you can switch it by muttilating a different target that u have rupture on
ok gotcha thank you
I'm assuming we just focus the prio mob and aoe everything around it like outlaw right?
yeah
you cleave ur bleeds with indiscriminate carnage talent and then single target prio mob to spatter all over the place
yesss
are we using fok as a filler/builder at 3 targets or 5?

builder at 3+
Word word thanks again m8 that's all I got for now...
that is unless we wanna get into why they took shadowstep away from outlaw
jk lol. nobody needs to hear me screaming at the void like that, thanks everyone !!
2+ with thrown precision and momentum of despair talented, otherwise 3+
@royal lantern is what how much over what ring
Does anyone have a sim for skippers vs the mastery gem?
I’m not home
Rough difference
Skippers is a full % ahead
In everything
Double damn
I’ve bricked one too many keys from skippers zapping an out of combat pack through a building
Ig a % is whatever
You were gonna brick that key anyways. Be honest
Legendary skipper doesnt sim correctly
According to who
:trust me bro
Name three sim god albums or you’re a fake fan
fuck
iam a sim god


stinky like marmite ol chap
it's @wild lantern favorite

it's so perfectly expressive
you can feel the sarcasm
the notes of smugness
the hint of despair
I need it

So true bestie
I’m actually fkin cursed this week
No DC the whole season and now Ive had 4 in the last 2 days
Bricked 17 db and ara like 3x each

I’m still partial to 
I'll add it to pissboys when I get home 
Add it to quak too plz
Bless
Starlink has me brick a randoms key once a week with a dc
what embelishments do we run?
some combo of ascension and dawnthread
ascenion + writhing band
double dawnthread
etc
Did they fix the tierset bugs on ptr yet?
Cuz you’re worth it king

no
I have a server named after you too bud
Quake’s Quaking Cheeks


for some reason, having nothing but mastery on this item is the best outcome for me
oh theres nothing that does that?
i thought since it was an option on raidbots then there has to be a missive for it
oh wtf, why is that even an option
Quick question, on M+ build opener when stealthed are you suposed to get like 5 casts of ambush?
stealth is used to spread bleeds generally
shouldn't ever need more than 1 ambush for the mark
Engineering armor can be single stat
How does ic work when everything is already bleeded, say I'm vanishing when things are in pandemic window, will it be still smart targeting or can it just rupture twice the same target even tho one has a way lower duration rupture left
from a quick dummy test i just did, seemed to refresh on lowest duration, could ve just been lucky though
is there a good macro or addon (or combo) to auto tricks a tank, and no need to change the name in a macro, or change focus target etc
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
❤️
is there a poison sequence macro anywhere
i always assumed it prio's lowest remaining duration
but haven't actually tested

It wont let me leave stealth without using like 5 of either ambush, cheap shot etc?
then change the keybinds on your stealth bar

whospar
you would know
you are the all knowning sin guy
what am I knowing
^
moment
yah no it doesn't smart target off remaining time
just off missing/present
okok
youre honestly a lifesaver hahaha
that's what I'm here for
it makes me sick thinking of the dps ive been missing out on

what is the best race for rogue ?

the best race is the one you like the most
RIP that guy

damn bro hated my bit
What did I miss
Bro left the server
Hell yeah

it was funny 
What on earth happened
You were funny dw
Worgen as well
ty to all the cuties in this chat for the help throughout the season!!
I have 6% haste
is that too low?
LOL
my stats are really unbalanced atm
27% crit 6% haste 42% mastery 14% vers
i feel like my energy regeneration might be sucking rn because of my haste tho
idk LOL
!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
!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

The 3 commands in a row by 2 different people just shows how well this channel explains why stats won't matter, why energy doesn't fix it, why the game play is like it is. I love it.
feet?
send this alien kitty showing feet gif pls, i forgot to save it
I read feet so here are feets D:
is mag'har just broken or what giving similar stats to a on use skardyin on a 2min cd myth track i saw the sims it doesnt look that op BUT bloodmallet uses the raid build to simulate aoe so im not sure how accurate that is
Its not broken no
Its about the same as regular orc
Skardyn is just not a good trinket
was looking into simming itbut idk how to sim a different race
its the best we got man 
Maybe this is better idk
Sad
Its the best we have but compared to dragonflight trinkets its worth like half as much
anyone knows how to custom sim races?
Big demise disapproves of this propaganda
Mastery is essential for big demise
@vestal wren lord fuu knows
kinda wanna sim like 10 targets
on my char
i didnt know that,cool cool 
beat me to it
i guess the sim does not meld -restealth
so simming night elf is just wonky
holy fuck this took long time to sim
maybe i shouldnt have inclueded all races
wtf does mechagnome do xd
passive agi
110k gain not too shabby
110k when ur doing 9m dps is pretty whatever
i'm really suprised how the passive stats can compete with 7k on use with your cooldowns
im kinda wondering if the APL is using the cooldowns properly in the sims
well you simmed 5 minutes of 10 targets

you're surprised that like 1600 agi perma is good
which like okay I guess
also should use cooldowns good enough
can't say we really strive for perfection on 10 target patchwerk
but it's not like gonna forget to kingsbane or something
i just don't wanna use the Dslice APL its so baity

or rather
whats baity about it
its so heavily single target focused the damage profile of how its coded
10t patchwerk more realistic
oh we're in that age again
all those 10 mob pulls
Dslice wants me to equip haste gear which all high end key pushers avoid like the plague
Prime minister do you know the cookieland president?
Boss dmg is the only thing that matters but dont make me use stuff that increases it, thats BAIT
doesn't matter if you stack haste rogue just does terrible boss damage no matter what
your enhance is carrying your boss damage


why fight
yep
yep
lisonna gave u the best choice to do more boss dmg(yes potentially more than enh)
at the expense of all your aoe
its less ''aoe'' or ''cleave'' than sin
playing sub makes the key go slower even if you have 20second faster boss fights
Can do pretty good AoE as it, too. Just can't have everything.
And glows purple, which is a bonus.
how the fuck did you get in here
pretty
yes its mostly why ppl play sin over sub,its just the time u gain from clearing packs faster,use that time to make the boss suicide from boredom while u feel ur beard grow in slow motion
sub is also most likely performing better in planned routes.Fully utilizing cds can be xtremely powerful
pugging as sub is one of the most miserable things in life
Sending sblades for 3 mobs feels very wrong
no no no, its that way:
the fotmpala tank pulls only 3 enemys the entire time
then you all use cds cus fuck it, he never pulls big
and THEN he suddenly goes full MDI pull after that and you wipe
so true
mfk@rs think rogue is a new class never seen before coz no one plays it
suddenly bros play it in keys then boom
especially for sub even more coz sub is like
unknown to the player base
did u guys see warriors got buffed then it got reverted like 1hour later
Lmao warriors get fucked 💀
mini game
will there ever come a day where dps warrior is meta in m+ ?
no
plz no
Thanks for the picture in my head now
u r welcome fam
I would try sub when i had trinkets for it :<
my mage blasted the entire season early just by that trinket
i raided once
that was it
stupid how powerful it is
I die and all my stacks are gone and now im mad and blame the heal that pumps on me but im to dump to use def cds
Thats my experience with spymaster players x)
the only dump thing here is quakes dumptruck ass
truth. and it is hell. and I cry
I once had a tank flame me for very bad damage while he was pulling 1 (one) pack at a time.
eh its just
bad tanks that dont pull big cus "dmg low"
even thought that is because the pulls are too small to use cds
and when people use cds they think dmg is high now and pull big after that
most wow players are not very smart 
doesnt help when its a spec where the cds are not really vissualy obvious, like all rogue specs
tbf, lets not act as if thats a tank thing
Oh, absolutely. It's not remotely exclusive to them
have a aug in your group and watch them use breath of eons when the pack is at 10% hp
🙂

i legit only had 1 aug that DIDNT do that all the time
My trick is to not pay attention to it and live in ignorance. It does not work.
knowledge is a curse
playing with randoms when you have some idea about the games is the thing lovecraft warned us about
you see horrible things happening and are powerless to do anything against it
Yep, haha
Evoker is probably the one I know the least about, and I never bothered to set up good buff tracking 'cos lazy baby. But some other classes. Hooboy. HOOBOY. Depressing.
But c'est la vie that's WoW
Just gotta focus on what you can do better in the moment.
Leaving in despair is a valid "what you can do better in the moment" imho.
i mean, evoker is overall simple
dev is a simple cd spec, if they have cds stuff dies, if they dont they do kinda low dmg
aug is braindead, and they still fuck it up by using breath of eons when shit is dead/when nobody has cds
pres just wants you stacked (all healers want that, but pres wants it even more)
Nod That's good to know, neat.
'Cos a lot of their stuff is frontal right?
just in general abilitys with a aoe effect
Ah, right
like, youu want to be stacked if possible for healers anyway
Yeah
thats a general healer rule
Yep
but pres just has more stuff
their normal breath, the orb, the healing bloom, the CD breath etc....
but like, a holy priest also gets a stroke if the boomkin+hunter stand at max range 20yards away from eachother cus nothing can cleave there 
hi, the guild I'm in took another rogue and I want to make fun of them
thanks for making my eyes bleed
could be me, when i somehow fatfinger DM and then go full panic mode and press random buttons
Try to help a Rogue brother out
forgot to type they took this rogue instead of me
Is assi the best overall rogue spec? Overall meaning mythic 7 & raids
what a rank 1 parse looks like with good RNG
for that level of play you can play whichever spec you like the most tbh
all 3 are decent in raid and can do keys up to a decently high level
Ok thats good to know, thank you, what about at the top end of mythic +? Is there a better spec or is it entirely down to the players skill level?
Depends on what you consider top end
Anything above +15? Im not sure really, im thinking long term haha
I’m returning back to wow after 12 ish years haha
Well long term tuning changes across the entire game
Atm assa is considered the best this season for like 17s and up
Not many sub/outlaws are doing 17s etc
Pretty sure 15s are possible on all 3
Not many people are doing 17s to begin with.
17s are title range keys
But ye its mostly assa for rogues
Ok I’ll keep doing what im doing then
Now as far as dps, what would be considered “good enough” dps for say a heroic raid? Like single target on a boss
I have no idea what is good or bad anymore, but maybe 1m dps?
I’m 611 ilvl
With aoe I can get around 2-2.5m
if you have 611 and can do 1M dps ST, thats more than enough
you're probably actually doing a good job
whispyr might have a heart atk or a nervous breakdown watching this
😅
oh no,he is watching

does anyone know the aoe range of caustic spatter around a target ? or care to explain how it actually works , like for example in AK first boss i never see spatter cleave the adds from the boss
Its 10 yards, based of your target
But some bosses, like the one you mentioned, has odd hitboxes
so theres actually no way to cleave on that boss right ?
If you have the adds really close
But without a coordinated group where people stand where theyre supposed to, no
finally got him
Bro even with coordianted groups people are so scared to get close enough grrr
Give me my spatter
Let me leave first zone with 4.3m overall madge
hi all - can anyone point me in the direction of a website/app to figure out where im going wrong? I'm currently raiding 4/8 mythic each week, and my Median Perf. Avg is 24.3 (37.6 by ilevel). I know there're a few stupid deaths pulling my average down, but I'm concerned there may be other problems as well.
I've checked WowAnalyzer, but I'm not sure how reliable it is, as it's calling me out for using Fan of Knives on Single Target despite having Clear The Witnesses - I believe I'm correct in my usage here?
yea if your logs are that low then youre playing badly
hence my question...
is that the only thing wowanalyzer is telling you?
yea wowanalyzer doesnt have fok usage implemented
regardless whether or not fok in st is correct, if youre logging that low there are other mistakes
(it is correct)
that's our ulgrax kill from tonight
i don't think wowanalyzer is fully updated for tww
send the log
or something along those lines
as suspected
its not the fok usage
there's 2 buttons pressed correctly in there
btw
mash mash
check wowhead for the rotation
cus that looks like as if you somewhat dont know it
you have 7 gcds in your 2nd CDs
you fok'd twice
in a row
its hard to get much worse so theres only improving
all good - can't fix problmes you're not aware of
this is exactly what I came looking for
yeha, once again, check the wowhead guide, it tells you 98% you need to know
if anything is still unclear, you can ask then
Has anyone ever tried to sim x2 on-use trinkets? simc seems to only use transmitter, never mad queens mandate
serious question, how are you meant to kill the add in NW?
you make sure you have vanish or darkest night up
its only an issue when you dont have mark
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/cmZdU289gj2yF3SnQeyQaL/simc
is this helpful?
then you use kidney and evasion to help you survive
the report youre looking at has transmitter and arakara egg
thanks, good throw
Where do I get the Weakauras that looks like this

Alright, thanks!
could be worse, you could be Subtlety and have it be literally unusuable in aoe

1 black powder in aoe and it'll almost always reset your stacks
for aoe it is less annoying as you are in dance quite a bit and in between you rupture
ok but they have trickster
resetting stacks might be not a thing unless they change some things
what does that have to do with the fact that the tier set doesn't function in aoe
well there you go
IT DOES VIRTUALLY NOTHIGN!?!?!
doesn't function for anyone
they have a workaround
if you combine the ST failure for assa and the aoe assa for sub
that's TWW in a nutshell
what's their workaround
exactly
just not pressing black powder in aoe?
funnel coping with shuriken -> eviscerate?
yes they have bladeflurry

it is actually more funny
you use rupture until you can dance
then you can use real finishers
10/10 gameplay
in dance you dont lose stacks
this expac has been everything I thought it was going to be
Kidney shot on cooldown for sub it sounds like
and I'm so glad I quit lmao
surely next expac will be better guys dw!
- every wow player since bfa

☹️
twist the knife vs master assa in builds? which one do you guys prefer? ma for just low keys or what
same with sudden demise
also last question. do you guys keep applying bleed to the same target youre on and hope the ai spreads them properly or do you actually tab target different ads to apply bleeds.
Surely things will get better now that they got bought out and Bobby is gone! -me
man, everyone with half a brain knew that "hero talents" are a bullshit idea that will just create pointless problems
its not a suprise 
and the tier set thing is the same shit
"trust us, we can do THEMATIC STUFF!!!"->literally gamble tierset that is the same for everyone
wah it's us vs them
does iron wire work on bosses?
why does sub work but not assa wah
never did
huh
then im washed, unluck
varas whining about how shit assa is on ptr
as if it's an us vs them competition about whose more bugged

eh, its varas
both sets suck
assa set sucks in every way, sub set is better in numbers but sucks if you look at the gameplay
both stinky
10/10
wdym, my great expansion feature is: do more dmg with envenom with deathstalker
and do more dmg with envenom trought fucking coinflips
how is that abandoned 
😏
pinneacle of creative work
huh?
"what if sub gets bladeflury?" is also insane ideas
countless hours went into rogue for tww
sub does have some interaction
yeha but those interactions are horrible
Is 0 unable to be counted?
i wonder, was mfd removed bc idea wise its the same as deathmark?
(not gameplay)
And PvP
id rather blizz be brave than give us what assa has
that is never played too
mfd was removed because they wanted to remove buttons and mfd was a extremely weird ability that didnt really fit into modern wow outside of PvP
not bringing up the relevency for the spec
same reason they replaced ER with supercharge, they want to cut buttons down cus people keep saying button bloat
ye, tea aswell
i thought they were alright, at least for outlaw
literally just a "chose 1" node that gives a non-auto tea is all it needs, and they just dont do it lol
well, thats cus of outlaws shity desing with "all cds get reduced lol"
which makes up a good bunch of outlaws Problems aswell

id be so amused if blizz dials back on outlaw cd reduction
cause outlaw channel would go in flames
would anyone know what weakaura this dot tracker is?
no it's ugly
that looks... unnecessary ? but no
thats the point. im creating a shitaura
i use this rn

I don’t think you really need to track S&D anymore.
I won’t lie. I was so happy to remove it from my bars.
What in the hell is that
haha true. it just came with the weakaura when i got it. Ive had it since before the S&D changes where it refreshed itself lol
I still have it on my bar and will hard cast it to assert dominance 
This is probably the most cursed UI I’ve seen. And a buddy of mine still uses Icy HUD. Also someone definitely has a 4k ultra wide monitor
More power to you lol. My ass always forgot about it because I’d genuinely be good after the first pull unless shit hit the fans and I’d just /never/ reapply because I’m trash


A friend of mine has her heart of Azeroth still on her bars in DF. And she kept hitting the key bind for it instead of LoH ☠️

what mf have to do to make assa exciting
just press your buttons like they arent on GCD or that you have energy to use them
strafe a bunch on the boss
pretty much play like a fury warrior
if you're not spamming strafe are you even playing a melee tho?
A D and space bar are most pressed buttons every fight
I can hit 1M when I have buffs/all cds
Normally it’s about 750k if I’m pushing hard
start playing ovinax egg trinket and minmax it to 20/10 for every gcd of the fight
!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
damn, that’s helpful 🔥👌🏻
you also have this, trinket+pot with DM;
#showtooltip Deathmark
/use 13
/use Fleeting Tempered Potion
/use Tempered Potion
/cast Blood Fury
/cast Deathmark```
What are the main poisons for Sin in dungeons and raids?
!poison
You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:
Lethals:
- Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
Non-Lethals: - Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB
Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used
@balmy condor how is transmitter for assa
for m+
say i want more burst for mist first boss for example
tis good
would i be sacrifysing a consequent overall number
i think in 1 target atleast transmitter is overall better than grace
But its like 1%
If that
Anyone have a M+ log showing good rotational playstyle and uptime that i can compare against my own?
Is it worth swapping to an upgradable mythic item ilvl 623 if I got a BiS Hero Item? In this case Ring and Trinket
Hero items inherently can’t be bis because they aren’t the highest ilvl. That being said if it’s like hero queen ring it can outsim myth rings so you should sim it
Ok I will look into sim, never simmed yet because I didnt understand what to do xD But I'll watch a guide, thanks
!simguide
Guide to Simming yourself: https://www.wowhead.com/how-to-use-raidbots-sims-stat-weights
For more accurate results you should always sim yourself using Top Gear for gear you already have in your bags
or Droptimizer to see which content drops the biggest upgrade for you. Do not use Stat Weights sims to evaluate gear.
is there any streamer whos been testing assa on PTR? i cant find any m+ dungeon testing from rogue POVs
iirc, numbers are good, but its transmitter so its a bit tricky to play sometimes
i can imagine transmitter in trash packs where more stuff is happening being kinda "annoying"
This rules. But the hearthstone based UI they have in another video is spectacular
How we lookin in s2
Ask in one month
Yo guys. What potion would you use. I got 16,4k Crit and 15,7k Mastery. is it better to take crit or mastery potion or the chaos?
Alchemical chaos is pretty much always better
Assa likes all stats
And your stats are irrelevant to that
bad
transmitter falls off a cliff in m+ overall cause of the haste and doesn't provide a significant gain in st
is it unplayable? no
but like if you have a skardyns there's not really a reason to play transmitter
that's fine
Anyone able to give me advice based on my log?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/AdPf2wRN47m3tHqQ?fight=33&type=damage-done&source=4
!pd
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
Sky and sac good in raid right
yeah just grazing, your caustic uptime is really low
like for most it's our top damage at the end of the key
yours isn't even top damage just cycling trash only
you also should get CT in a bit more, 21 casts in 28 minutes is also low (again, this just for trash, but that's a large chunk of dam as well, and rupture + garrote are higher)
On big pulls for example first pull of necrotic am I trying to put rupture and garrot on as many mobs as possible in opener or do I just put out the first 2 rupture casts and focus on caustic and pumping evenem?
depends on the exact pull, if you pull the gatekeeper, you one hundred percent just get the ruptures out, get CT going, then pump into the main target for a bit
also depends key level fwiw
but going to assume circa 10-12
Got it that is what I figured because I was trying to garrot and rupture more adds and all the little stuff just died super early and I figured caustic would do more damage at that point
Are we using S1 tier over S2 tier /s
Always sim, usually chest but chest different was like 2k dps
yeah I have crafted chest but thats mainly cause I havent seen a myth track chest piece yet kek
Do you have any ideas as to why that would be?
You’re not mutilating to keep it up on your target maybe
Or you let deadly or your bleeds drop
I could go pull by pull but I’m ngl I cba
Mean Toxicquake
Hmm maybe I’m not applying my bleeds properly. You need to physically tab between mobs at the start of the pull to apply them to multiple?
make hexagons with the clones
Not with ic - you can just stay on one and let smart targeting carry
meme video that actually explains the mechanic
place first shades at the assinged spots->when you get a charge you go 2 symbols clockwise
2nd charge just straight trought the boss
repeat
Sorry what’s ic?
seems pretty discriminate
its indiscriminate cause the targets are random 
my guildy made this
for our kill video


oh and yeha, you can cloak before the charge happens, so you dont get the dot and can instantly run back in
instead of waiting for the bombs to explode from you
did a SV11 but look at this CT damage? Just check some WCL (SV 11s) and ususUlly CT is not that high.
very powerful
am I doing something wrong? the number of CT casts was 47 (not that high) with 48% uptime
looks normal
ye
I mean usually spatter is 1 and CT is 2, but I also find myself falling behind on caustic damage sometimes when playing a bit scared and then CT takes over
spatter is maybe on the low side
CT and Spatter will always be highest dmg, just swapping a bit bettwen eachother
if you have a priority target that stays alive for longe, spatter will be a higher, otherwhise CT will be higher
but both are always #1 and #2
wouldnt read too much into that 
kek
not sure if it's top but was the #1 that had a log available on rank
"top logs" are literally always some extremely degen stuff
or just straight up lucky rng with procs/crits and stuff

like raid logs are already fried, looking at M+ logs sounds 10x worse
humm. so for the common sense people CT and spatter aways on top?
ye
ok
spatter and CT are your 2 big aoe things
pull pack->apply rupture and garrote to 5guys->CT->Single target a beefy enemy and cleave with spatter
thats more or less all you do
yeah, I was doing 2M+ average with that regular group
was not so bad
last boss pushed it down to 1.97M overall
CT is legit such a sick spell tbh
like compare the amount of work that you need to do for spatter to reach the same damage 1 CT press does

why is legit every single raid experience the same around the globe

!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
Gilded Crests....... Upgrade 619 offhand to 636 or upgrade set armor pieces to 626 first?
Offhand is the lowest contribution piece, it gets lowest upgrade priority
but also, if you want an exact answer on a per-upgrade basis, can always sim
ok we killed kyveza 
cloakin dashes very cozy
i think we're just overgearing tf out of everything now
i think i might just do this every tier
only had to do 2 pulls on mythic ovinax
It’s like 20% now
i'm sayin
10 pulls on kyveza and 2 on ovinax then done for the tier

i probably come do court and queen next week or the week after
Got any free spots in ur guild 
Yo gamers do we know if there's gonna he a heroic week before mythic next tier
yes we know. there wont be
do you play Evoker and are somewhat decent at the game and wont leave after half a tier cus you get poached cus nobody has a Evoker?

KER??
its possible to see in logs if a tank get hit in the back?
No, but you can watch a replay and check it
Anyone else bored of this spec but probably has to stay it for next tier
No
I don't really think people are being held hostage and forced to play the spec
wannabe pro gamers always are

Fair
or raid log once a week and then pop on Valorant (couldn't be me)
I like it sue me
ok
my best friend is a laywer
you are screwed

I liked valorant until they nerfed Jett
OG jett was a menace
I like tac shooters also play CS2 but its not my favorite
Elusiveness vs cheat death for 12-14 level keys - Elusiveness and dungeon knowledge is best?
Seems even with knowledge, I am wishing I would have taken cheat death.
Just seeking more input of maybe this dungeon for cheat death otherwise always elusiveness or something?
elusiveness 99% of the time
cheat will save you once due to a mistake
feint will save you the whole dungeon if you're doing it correctly and your healer isn't sleeping
i think if you never plan on going into key levels where mechanics one shot you
then cheat is fine
like elus is very good.
but at a key level where it's making a 50% hit turn into a 30% hit or w/e
are you really getting that much value out of it?
vs a 110% hit into a 90% hit
in a 16 or w/e
guys, im away from wow since september 24, assa is good still? we are good for next raid?

How do you use feint correctly to get the full benefit from taking elusiveness?
pressing it
kek
if you're in an aoe situation, you can spam it basically on cd cuz the energy doesn't matter
use it with a weakaura that tells you when you are being targetted
ye you prolly dont wanna spam it, but just be aware of when you need to use it
save evasion for bigger group aoes
or other cheese mechanics like NW frontal
cheese this 
there's no downside to spamming it in aoe
i mean, don't cast it pointlessly, but you can use it quite actively
original made by 호불: his profile: https://wago.io/p/호불 his weakaura: https://wago.io/uUwU71sI8 i just up
