u can completely ignore anything that has to do with stats for sin

#

trust

#

if u wanna play sub+sin build for sub that cares for vers

prisma coral
#

and hates haste

rotund oak
#

basicly irrelevant stat ye

lofty junco
#

alright vers+mastery it is then

amber brook
#

Can Stix's add be used to energy refund?

prisma coral
#

boots/cloaks/bracers/belts are picked as a craftable since they have the lowest stat allocation

#

so its seldom a huge deal

#

and recrafting is pretty cheap

runic basin
#

where ST assa buffs???

balmy condor
#

not needed

runic basin
balmy condor
#

can't buff raid st any more

#

assa good in raid

#

can't buff m+ st without buffing raid st or large scale talent reworks

#

we do giga aoe in m+, such is our job

#

and that's how it is

royal lantern
#

ww monk does more

#

and people always say "dont nerf, buff the rest"

earnest remnant
#

Buff sub. It stinks

royal lantern
#

ofc it stinks, you went dumpster diving again raccon man

earnest remnant
#

Not my fault the vault came like that

royal lantern
#

didnt saw my vault yet, but flmy first vault was a stinker ye

balmy condor
earnest remnant
#

2 weeks in a row. With complete dog trash

#

It’s great

last skiff
#

Dagger is equivalent bis raid yes?

magic fossil
#

2k haste 4k versa and its a upgrade

#

from my crafted neck cri +mast from last season

red schooner
#

If the sim says it is then ye, all the secondaries are alright for sin

magic fossil
#

gosh, odd as hell

#

thank you!

red schooner
#

We don't have a specific secondary we hate, so ye, just fire the SIM off is the only advice I have

magic fossil
#

thank you, it is enough till i put my hands in something better!

#

ty again

jade abyss
spare kayak
#

should we sim full raid buffs in dungeon slice or no buffs? what do you guys recommend?

balmy condor
balmy condor
#

It’s just ++ number really

#

Which already is meaningless cause it’s dungeonslice

magic fossil
#

@balmy condor mate scroll up a little bit please, take a look at that aberration o got from delve and its saying its better than my craft crit+mas from last season

#

its checks out?

#

or raidbots are tripping

#

if possible ofc

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

Goat explained it

magic fossil
#

ok

#

just double checking

#

so it is what it is

#

ty both of u again 🙂

balmy condor
#

Yeah secondaries are fake as fuck

#

Who cares if stat A is worth 11.15 and stat B is worth 11.13 and stat C is worth 11.2

#

Cause any item that’s +3 ilvl will just have more stats

#

and you fix the rest with enchant and gems and other piece combos

#

And so you just don’t give a fuck and yolo it

magic fossil
#

ty man, thats a amazing thing to read

#

this monstruosity will stay for a while

#

😄

balmy condor
#

I have like 7 rings at 658

#

And 3 necks

#

And it only ever wants the vers ring and vers neck

#

And I’m like aight whatever

#

And then I forgot to equip em

#

And I also didn’t care

golden loom
#

I have another 658 ring that sims 0.3% better but I am not paying for new sockets

balmy condor
#

Gear in this game is absolute clown shit

#

You have agility and 4 stats that functionally do the same thing at basically equal value

#

And then maybe you get a funny item with some bonus magic words

#

And the bonus magic words say either you get more of the 4 stats or it just does tiny fuckass damage to a dude

#

And you equip it for the dopamine hit and feel happy for yourself

#

Tier is kinda the only semi interesting thing thats left and they were so lazy designing 95% of them that it just ends up being one of the 4 stats again

#

It’s really incredible actually

oak eagle
balmy condor
oak eagle
#

hey hey hey hey

#

lets not do that

#

i said necks

balmy condor
oak eagle
#

as in pluarl

#

get rekt

golden loom
#

You calling him fat?

balmy condor
#

Idk why I’m holding onto so much 658 gear that I’m never gonna equip anyway

#

I’m just gonna replace it with the first thing that 662 regardless of the stats

#

So what’s even the point

#

Just copium I guess

oak eagle
#

massive copium

dapper halo
#

admit it

#

were here cause of the stockholm syndrome

#

im in too deep, its too late for me

#

latest numbers makes me hopeful that maybe assa wont get the nerf bat

subtle kiln
#

Why would assa get nerfed?

shy axle
#

because it was first on the wowhead bar list last reset i guess

solar wyvern
#

Imagine if blizz nerfs assa when 2pc 2pc is at its strongest relative to other specs

#

Haha anyway, lets buff fire mage thoughts friends?

static glacier
#

@balmy condor this has to be signet right? I get to say im locked in as sin forever

solar wyvern
#

Sorry pal, myth helmet and catalyse

#

Off to sub jail

static glacier
#

but...but I have 5pc already

solar wyvern
#

So? Now u can have 6pc!

#

Can't wear it, but youll have it,n

static glacier
#

honestly if sub didn't use transmitter id happily play it

real pike
#

don't think I've ever been more bored looking at a vault

static glacier
#

branch was better than this shit

solar wyvern
#

I was saved from transmitter last weak HoC secured

solar wyvern
#

Thats exciting

red schooner
#

The key to not using transmitter is to never equip it in the first place. I refused.

#

Straight up nah, fuck that

real pike
#

that belt is a MASSIVE 14k DPS increase on my fucking 639 belt...23 ilvls for a 0.7% damage increase

#

who the fuck came up with the tuning this season

#

it's actually starting to tilt me

austere basin
#

the only items that are upgrades are the hands at myth track or the garbagemancer's trinket, The trinket is a bigger upgrade now but overall its a d-tier trinket.
(trinket is 23k upgrade and Hands 10k)
should i go for the hands since i can Catalist them lateron for my tier bonus

subtle kiln
#

so enjoy!

real pike
#

for that massive massive bonus we get going from last seasons 2 piece

#

I LOVE THIS SEASON

solar wyvern
red schooner
#

It'd be nice to replace them but ye, Sims say no

solar wyvern
#

That is quite depressing

real pike
#

just a bit

shy axle
#

how do these warchests work?

subtle kiln
# static glacier honestly might do it

Transmitter is perfect in sims. Hits every Sectech on the nose. It’s basically sim bait and the PvP badge is super close to it in sims even vs myth transmitter

static glacier
#

honestly though I think the problem is

#

sub just has really good on pull burst

#

my guild keep memeing me that our other rogue is gapping me bc they see 4m opener

#

despite me usually ending higher

subtle kiln
#

it falls off typically, especially with longer fights.

static glacier
#

add in rwf playing sub

#

and people's perception of how good sin is cooked

subtle kiln
#

just tell them all rogues are equally mid cosmetic dps and replace you both with 2 WW monks

static glacier
#

our 1 ww rerolled spriest

#

we have no ww xd

subtle kiln
#

lol

static glacier
#

I normally compete with the warriors

#

thus far im best logging dps in the guild

subtle kiln
#

Well spriest not bad. But missing the ww juice right now. Unluck.

#

all three specs are basically play what you enjoy. Unironically a good tier for outlaw enjoyers.

real pike
#

sin is cooked tho

static glacier
real pike
#

we dropped 11 places in rankings cause other classes tier sets are actual upgrades

real pike
#

without some tuning we're going to fall off fucking hard

static glacier
#

the reason we dropped is that more mytthic bosses were killed

real pike
static glacier
#

we're actually insane for 1st boss

subtle kiln
#

nah. DH needs mythic tier as well

red schooner
#

Sin is fine, I ain't raiding rwf, any spec is viable in that context

tawdry mica
#

I finally got my hands on 4p hero track and also replacing a 626 chest with a 650+ one. Still simming ~1% better than before, this is so sad

real pike
#

going from last seasons 2pc to this seasons 4pc full hero should NOT be a dps loss

subtle kiln
#

Or just realize you were blessed with early dps from 2pc both seasons.

real pike
#

agree any spec is viable for non-RWF raiding yes

static glacier
#

yo anyone noticed the jojo reference?

real pike
#

but this just feels bad

subtle kiln
#

they could have just nuked old 4pc

#

and then it’s a worse spot

red schooner
static glacier
#

highkey

#

I think we're realistically middle of the pack

#

whispyr's apl / sims are just ethical

red schooner
#

I like sin, I play sin. I am a very simple man

static glacier
#

and other classes are doing ungodly things for a bunch of 0.2% increases to inflate simdps

real pike
#

I agree but I am also a simple ape that wants bigger number SadgeCry

static glacier
#

its ok buddy

real pike
#

number smaller make silly man sad

tawdry mica
subtle kiln
#

WW was 2.9 milly ptr sims. Doesn’t seem unethical based on performance.

static glacier
#

im saying compared to like

red schooner
#

Silly monks, imagine not hiding your power level

#

Fools

static glacier
#

midpack stuff

subtle kiln
#

warrior, good ones, are performing.

red schooner
#

I'm still beating our raids ww monk ST somehow

static glacier
#

like look at feral

#

spec sims a few hundred ahead of us

red schooner
#

Idk what he's doing

static glacier
#

realistically same kinda level if not weaker

subtle kiln
#

No one plays that spec

young knot
#

is 4p good or should i still be 2p 2p

amber brook
#

Does Stix's adds allow us to energy refund?

static glacier
subtle kiln
#

no one plays our class

tawdry mica
subtle kiln
#

built diffy than druids

red schooner
#

I'm fucking trapped

static glacier
#

we might break 2m dps this week if lucky

real pike
#

it's my lifen ow

static glacier
#

sim-wise it's bleak but idk if it's reasonable to expect buffs

subtle kiln
#

the real disappointment is zero real gameplay changes or talent tuning between seasons. Idgaf what the gear numbers show. But that’s me.

red schooner
real pike
#

tbf it took me a while to get used to the shiv change omegalul

red schooner
#

Instead of just, you get slightly bigger numbers sometimes

static glacier
#

unlike dm / kb it feels like an actual cd on aoe, not just stats (trink) or st dmg that spatters

subtle kiln
#

the one nice thing when all three specs are mid, you can play what you want and not give a shit about comparing what the other two are doing, which can be a real struggle for some people.

static glacier
#

did that anyway tbh, they've almost always been like this

subtle kiln
#

you’re the minority

royal lantern
#

so it kinda fits for that double referencd

static glacier
#

im trying to remember when there was a massive difference between specs

modest gale
#

which tierset do we drop ?

static glacier
subtle kiln
static glacier
#

even then outside of rash and ovinax I don't remember a boss thats a huge difference

#

recently anyway

real pike
#

and I didn't even mind it

subtle kiln
#

oh you forget the non sub rogues figuring out sub dust timings kekdog

royal lantern
#

@static glacier if you want a more balant pure jojo reference

antorus, the argus fight achievment for the Glory mount is literally called Stardust Crusaders kekdog

tight compass
#

not sure what to pick here, im leaning towards trinket, my current tier setup is 1x myth 3x hc (but im using 2-2)

sims says tier is slight bigger upgrade but its alot easier to obtain in raid

static glacier
#

eye is worse, useless in m+

#

and short fights

#

litterally best passive trink

#

you'll get some legs to catalyst for free

#

at some point

pseudo bison
#

Hey I’m someone who used to play in wraith and came back for the tww and for the life of me I can not get off the bottom of the damage charts when raiding. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I’m parcing super low

Focusing on keeping bleeds ups and hitting cd windows but I just keep struggling. Any tips or things I might be missing. Teppic of black dragon flight

tight compass
#

yee thats my thinking too just wanted input so i dont get baited by myself

static glacier
tight compass
#

yee

olive tusk
#

I dont get it... @balmy condor

static glacier
#

if you're stuck on a dps check in raid there might be an argument for legs, even then Id say you take trink for longterm power

tight compass
#

its a 5k difference on myth legs > trinket

tight compass
olive tusk
#

okok

static glacier
#

for raid fights in hc and mythic eye is s tier

#

but for dungeons / fights under like 3m it's c or below

subtle kiln
#

Eye is fight timing dependent

static glacier
#

with the raid buff and nerfs to fights

subtle kiln
#

yea

#

I like my heroic pacemaker. Would take a mythic for sure.

regal cloud
#

Oi yall know if floodgates trinket is decent or good for m+?

static glacier

I got hc eye from week 1 vault, still using ovinax egg for keys though

What

sharp viper
static glacier
sharp viper
#

esp with new 4 set

static glacier
sharp viper
#

no but that's because I am worse at sub

#

just comparing fictional numbers

olive tusk
# warm vortex What

I tried to see my "picture" with a new eye, and I think I get it now... So EoK has been nerfed, so no more S-Tier AT ALL, and EoK is now B-Tier because still kind of a A-Tier for raid content and C-Tier for M+, is that right?

golden loom
#

Well its quickly getting worse for heroic raid cause its bad in short fights

#

And useless in m+

warm vortex
#

Bis lists are meaningless tbh

olive tusk
golden loom
warm vortex
golden loom
#

Cause you are simming a static 5 min fight

warm vortex
#

No?

golden loom
#

It doesnt show how the value of the trinket changes with time

warm vortex
#

You can sim different times

golden loom
#

Like week 1 eye of kezan is better than week 5

static glacier
warm vortex
#

Just take the length of what the fight would be and sim it then

static glacier
#

I swear the sim is fake

golden loom
#

Okay but its still missing the point kinda

olive tusk
warm vortex
static glacier
toxic sparrow
#

Not sure if I should pick the BiS Belt (I have it Heroic) or the Crit/Mastery Ring...

static glacier
# olive tusk like really?

It’s a joke, reflecting our inability to execute gameplay as well as the sim, sub has v tight timers on opener to fit 3rd sectec in dmg windows

warm vortex
#

Idk say

#

*id say

static glacier
#

Not dropped again

warm vortex
#

HoC?

golden loom
sharp viper
#

i have it in my vault, very tempted to pick it

static glacier
#

I’d say give it to other rogue if it drops anyway

sharp viper
static glacier
#

I got myth signet with avoidance this week

#

So I’m kinda out the running for HoC

golden loom
#

I get to go home in 1 hour 30 and check my vault

warm vortex
#

Idk how good HoC is on Bm tbh
When we run a cooldown we have a 2 min one

toxic sparrow
warm vortex
#

And in M+ we don’t run cooldowns atm

warm vortex
#

And how likely are you to get said gallywix ring

sharp viper
warm vortex
static glacier
#

Idk if sim counts extra priory stats

#

Being in a priory group with 4x the extra buff feels like it might juice it above HoC

royal lantern
#

cus those extra stats are less then a Gem

#

absolutely neglectable

stark halo
#

How close are sin and sub ST in raid? Seems like it’s not much of a difference but I could be wrong. If I’m decent at Sin already, is it worth trying to learn sub?

what is the consensus on assass vs sub for pushing M+?

I love the flavour that the boss’ bodyguard is harder than the boss itself

That acutally makes a little bit of sense

#

Lore accurate raid

warm vortex
#

Yea

#

I still love the raid

#

Minus stix

#

Tbh this patch is incredible

#

The flavour, the dungeon, the new raid, even the delve

tawdry mica
#

I'm liking stix (on hc), I love caustic spatter going insane

warm vortex
#

Sidestreet Sluice is the best delve

#

They made a delve so good I remember its name

Tbh

But single target boss

tawdry mica
#

lmaoo

red schooner
#

Feels good

warm vortex
#

I never realised how much I’d miss the ease of going from pure ST to cleave

#

With the flick of a choice node

royal lantern
#

bro, you make 2 trees for bm, 1called pure st and 1 called Raid Cleave

#

and swap bettwen them kekdog

warm vortex
#

Yea but I lose a lot of DPS when swapping compared to assas

#

Which loses like

#

A tiny bit

#

Going from IB to CS

#

But tbh the raid this tier seems p good anyway
So far the only boss in hero that isn’t too good for that sorta talent change is stix

rain berry
#

house of cards is so much better than signet of priory?

warm vortex
#

I don’t know how needed cleave is on one armed

red schooner
rain berry
#

i have house of cards hc in chest but also a mythic dagger

#

dont know what to choose

red schooner
#

Sim it

#

And see

rain berry
#

the dagger is a little better in sims

#

but trinket maybe

#

wont appear again

#

the difference is 80.9%

#

0.9&

#

xd

wet wharf
#

On Gally. Does the caustic spatter cleave on to the adds that spwn with the bombs, if you are targeting gally himself?

tawdry mica
#

are both maxed out in the sim?

royal lantern
rain berry
#

i have priory trinket yes

royal lantern
#

then you have no reason to take HoC

#

they are equal

warm vortex
#

The rent on a house of cards

royal lantern
#

well, if you wanna play sub i gues

warm vortex
#

Must be p cheap to live in

royal lantern
#

but for assa priory and HoC are the same

warm vortex
#

So it seems quite efficient

rain berry
#

so i'll take dagger i guess

#

ty

tawdry mica
#

I'll take HoC for you thanks

#

Appreciate it

warm vortex
#

I feel that

#

I don’t have much time to run M+ atm

#

So trinkets are hard to cum by

tawdry mica
#

Exactly

warm vortex
#

Also any dungeons that feel good on Assa?

#

Only done one single rookery run on week 1

I like IW I can feel justified in being lazy on interrupts later

#

Sometimes I just wanna blast okay

warm vortex
#

And are there any this season you just don’t worry about IW
Cause I remember last season

red schooner
#

Just bought you 6 seconds of no cast you're welcome

warm vortex
#

But for each of you
Do you guys do IW atm

#

no and i regret each time

I just run IW in all

#

A tiny tiny tiny amount of damage

solid hemlock

it is

warm vortex
#

Due to how much of your damage is from spattering over all those bozos

#

yep

red schooner

But on bleed build when you get that juicy SD final hit

royal lantern

#

well I'm not playing bleed atm

warm vortex
royal lantern
#

ye

#

you spread garrote more

#

but rupture? nah not really

red schooner
solid hemlock
#

you dont take SD for the execute portion

#

unless ur playing really low keys

royal lantern
warm vortex
#

Shouldn’t you still take it due to the bleed damage

solid hemlock
#

ye thats what i meant

#

you take the talent for the 15% dmg amp

#

not for the "pop"

red schooner
#

It was good times

solid hemlock

oh yeah surely

#

time walking is always tuning fun

i rememeber timewalking during legion, where you could literally 1hit kill bosses

btw

for the second crafted piece, is there any recommended offpiece or just craft whatever?

seems fair

you wont replace it

solid hemlock
#

yes ofc

raven saffron
#

Is assa just OMEGA energy starved?

solid hemlock
#

in m+ yes

warm vortex
#

!design

prisma monolithBOT
#

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. As a burst spec our damage is mainly loaded into Deathmark/Shiv and massive Envenoms through stacking multiple nature damage buffs such as Lingering Darkness, Shiv, Darkest Night, Amplifying Poison, and more. This comes with the natural downside of our damage suffering outside of these windows, in part due to the designed lack of energy slowing us down.

Because of this, there is only one minor (0.3%) min-max with energy, which is pooling 3-4 seconds into an upcoming Kingsbane. Ideally this would put you at around 50-60% energy before you enter your Kingsbane, which is more than enough energy alongside thistle tea. Outside of that, spam Envenom and just accept that you will run out of energy. There is nothing you can do to not run out of energy. Playing around Envenom uptime also is not relevant anymore, as Twist the knife allows for two stacks at a time, which reduces wasted uptime dramatically. Without twist the knife, wasting uptime is unavoidable.

Energy is completely pointless other than us sometimes running out

royal lantern
#

if you spend 40% of your time doing nothing, maybe apply poison and out some bleeds on stuff dracthyr_kek

red schooner
#

We're either capped to fuck in aoe or starved st

royal lantern
#

"meaning" doesnt always mean "huge gameplay impact"

#

outlaw has endless energy->its abilitys do lower dmg

#

assa/sub can run out->they do more dmg with a ability cast

unborn spindle
#

Hey is there anyone who is expert on assassination? I dont how can i do 10% pharse on logs while my dmg / i level should be okey ish

red schooner
#

For me meaning would mean a gameplay related impact altering how I play, instead of just hitting the same rotation but sometimes being delayed slightly

tawdry mica
#

what other class lets you do that huh

red schooner
#

Like, me being out of energy changes nothing other than a slight delay, so it's meaningless in that respect

static glacier
#

Knowing when to not press buttons as gameplay is actually really good and the game should make better use of it

#

ATM we barely pool

red schooner
#

I'd be down for pooling being relevant for us

#

So much

static glacier
#

S3 df hit a sweet spot

red schooner
#

I like the pool

static glacier
#

With the tier set heavily rewarding pooling

red schooner
#

At the moment it's just, yeah, we send buttons the same regardless of energy count, even tea is pointless outside of the 1m mastery boost

I find it interesting how many more people complain about assa being slow compared to sub, when theyre pretty much the same speed. Like ye sub is fast in cooldowns but way slower than assa outside of em

i mean, what do you want us too say?

yes, assa energy on m+ bosses runs out bettwen cd windows

energy being able to run out if you dont take all energy talents is done by desing, and you cant take all in m+

at the same time, sub has the same thing but nobody complains about it for some reason

  • wow players love to complain about all classes being the same, but then get pissy when 1 (when its actually 2-3) spec out if 30+ dps options has some short windows where its not spamming its generic filler
#

and if you had energy, you would just do a poopy dmg mutilate mutilate envenom anyway lol

have your tanks move the boss so you can cleave better

i got 679 dagger with 444haste/751mast in vault and 679 ring in vault with 5144crit/2684mast. I really have no clue what to pick. I have 675 MH now, but i could put that in OFFhand and take the 679 dagger as main hand. WHen i sim it, the ring turns out to be best upgrade. I use dungeonslice for simming, but it seems you should always aim for masatery over everything. How does that make sense? do you sim in different ways?. Anyway if you any tip on what ot pick i would apprecieate it, so i can start playing some keys 😄 (I Only do M+

allright yeha sorry, saw vault and just went "sim it"

#

secondarys dont matter mate

i would sim all upgrades for patchwerk imo

if the dagger upgrade is the biggest one cus you dont have a max ilvl mainhand dagger, grab it sure

prisma monolithBOT

Preferences currently are wrist/belt/dagger for embellishment depending on what you go for

Darkmoon Sigil Ascension (dagger) + Writhing Banding (wrist) is generally "the best" in raid, but has ramp time and is worse in m+
2x Dawnthread (wrist/belt) is generally the best in m+ and not far behind of Ascencion/Banding for raids. Equal in single target at 80% uptime

Craft a dagger if you're unlucky and don't get one and are down bad and crying about your pathetic little 580 main hand dagger. Put Ascencion on it
If you have a big dagger in your main hand already read the above and pick whatever you prefer

nova aspen
#

i always go for the ST upgrade since that is what we lack most

royal lantern
#

but its not about secondarys

obtuse lance
royal lantern
royal lantern
#

people love to overvalue secondsays like crazy

#

when mainstat Upgrades more or less always win by default

obtuse lance
golden loom
#

Well Mainhand weapon is most important, so if you already have a 675 crafted weapon, a max myth track dagger isnt that big of a upgrade

#

cause its only 3 ilvl and then the small offhand stats

strange sleet
obtuse lance
golden loom
#

the ring is the biggest upgrade in that situation

static glacier
spring briar
maiden sierra
#

why does breaking 2-2 set for 3 set increese my dps but getting 4 set is a massive dps downgrade?
im simming 2 myth track tier pieces

strange sleet
#

Btw, I also got a myth crit/mastery weap this vault, already having a 675 crafted. I got the Jasper ring but only in champ, so I picked up the dagger and just forget for the rest of the patch. 1.6% dps upgrade, very close to ring but higher QL for me

hoary remnant
#

And very rare

strange sleet
#

ring was 1.3 vs 1.6 dagger

#

but with dagger I'm done for the rest of the patch

#

a better ring can potentially drop

#

later

obtuse lance
# hoary remnant And very rare

WHat do you mean about ring is rare and OP? would the the ring where you have more mastery than crit be way better for high keys?

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
golden loom
#

like idk, you are thinking too much about the stats

strange sleet
#

For me, crit was #1 at the end of last patch in AoE. ANd haste for ST

#

so yeah the better option is to always sim
