keep in mind that come tuesday, blindside is a much more attractive option

read the pin

you have enough mastery, or will you fall into the "fuck it gives menthe wrong secondary" situation aswell dracthyr_kek

"Talent wise, for bleed build in m+ you'd be silly to not run blindside now"

Ahhh smart

dawn heath

fuckign tanks

dreamy rover

"Blindside and Tiny Toxic Blade are interchangeable as well, with Tiny Toxic Blade being the choice for AoE, while Blindside is a minor single target improvement. Neither one of them will drastically alter the damage of the build, but Blindside is generally the worse option overall."

whispyr is the smart one O_O

#

out of curiosity - did they ever remove the extra spark from ppl who exploited?

royal lantern
#

no, cus it wasnt really a bigtime exploit and many did it by accident even

#

they just gave everyone a spark half and called it a day

timber meadow
#

yeah still confused on why they gave everyone a half spark

#

i figured they just wanted to delay everything to give themselves time to fix the actual issue

#

but since they never removed the spark iono what was accomplished but doesn't really matter lol

fleet pagoda
#

so people who didn't exploit didn't feel like they were perma behind

timber meadow
#

but ohw did giving everyone an extra spark change that? it didn't right

#

like everyone who didn't exploit is still just perma behidn

balmy condor
#

I mean not really

gritty laurel
#

the first 2 sparks are the most important, so i'm guessing that's why they bumped everyone to that point and said fuggit

balmy condor
#

the whole issue was that they got their second embellishment

#

which everyone else also has now

timber meadow
#

i wouldn't say that was the whoel issue

balmy condor
#

and who cares after that

dreamy rover
#

licko vs equid?

haughty flicker
#

Unless you’re a 2h crafter

#

But yeah it’s whatever anyway

gritty laurel
#

we don't do that here

waxen oyster
haughty flicker
#

Idc if some randoms have half a spark more than me

fleet pagoda
#

int one handers only in here garf

balmy condor
#

if people are crafting a third item this early it's an L anyway lmao

waxen oyster
#

why do people think embellishments make a big diff

#

in this expac

"bro maghar sims so much higher, im forced to reroll for competitive dps, look at the bloodmallet lists bro, btw, what does this boss do? and do you have potions? wait i have to check wowlogs first to see what potions i should use!!!!"

dreamy rover
#

and that assumption isnt farfetched

waxen oyster
#

their fault being slow

fleet pagoda
#

yeah most people probably aren't terminally tied to their class discord scrolling

waxen oyster
#

i guess

gritty laurel
#

most people are wrong

waxen oyster
#

no its not terminally tied to discord its reading the numbers

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

ye

waxen oyster
#

its a matter of reading tooltips

fleet pagoda
#

we like tooltips in here now? monkaS

waxen oyster
#

the amount of mastery bsl gave

#

then again whispyr proved no one fucking reads

#

by wowhead guide views

haughty flicker
#

ye the tooltip like writhing armor band

gritty laurel
#

whispyr proves that every time he pins a new message

haughty flicker
#

"makes nerubian embellishments better"

#

huge

royal lantern
dreamy rover
#

me touch grass a bit

waxen oyster
#

I remember it was a bigger amount

haughty flicker
#

if its not in the cheat sheet idc

waxen oyster
#

Idk i touch grass more then the average

haughty flicker
#

think im gonna read or something

#

lmao

waxen oyster
#

cant remember the last time i looked up a "bis list"

#

acquire ilvl

royal lantern
#

my embelishment experience is:

open wowhead->check in gear section the embelishmenta->use them

#

who tf cares what they do, its passive number up anyway

waxen oyster
#

i mean

#

i saw they didnt up embellishment numbers

#

so why would it change

#

from s1

royal lantern
#

cant tell you what blessed weapon grip or lense does tbh omegalul

waxen oyster
#

embellishments already sucked in s1

#

now we're gaining over 40 ilvls

#

with the same embellish values

#

🆗

gritty laurel
#

um ackshually it's 39 ilvls

royal lantern
#

tbf, embelishments dont need to do giga dmg

their point is just too make people use crafted gear, so that crafting has value

#

and it does that

waxen oyster
#

wasnt one bsl in df

#

like 1.2k

royal lantern
#

and weapon enchants in DF gave you huge dmg swings aswell

waxen oyster
#

yeah

#

me checking my sophic procs in cds

royal lantern
#

in DF you had more power in that stuff, they tuned that back in tww

waxen oyster
#

vs not

royal lantern
#

dont see the problem there

#

sophic was bs overall

waxen oyster
#

Idk it's just a thing i noticed

#

wow players are very slow to adapt to changes

#

they'll cite something that is 2+ years old

#

as current info

royal lantern
waxen oyster
#

did SL have ap

royal lantern
#

wow players are dumb af

dreamy rover
#

its understandeable that people arent on top of all information about wow when you study other topics, work, live life idk

royal lantern
#

we had anima, which was a 100% comsetic resource

waxen oyster
#

all i remember was conduit energy

royal lantern
#

but people saw "currency with A = AP"

waxen oyster
#

could eat my whole ass

haughty flicker
#

you had to grind renown on alts to unlock conduits

severe meadow
#

Low keys are funny

haughty flicker
#

which was fucking dumb

#

but not as bad as ap was

dreamy rover
gritty laurel
#

i remember upgrading conduits being a huge pain in the ass

dreamy rover
#

what number?

severe meadow
#

Like a 6

waxen oyster
#

and thats it

haughty flicker
#

conduits were ass yeah

severe meadow
#

Sudden Demise heaven

hollow river
dreamy rover
#

nice work

hollow river
#

compared to the past

waxen oyster
#

sockets were only big in like

royal lantern
waxen oyster
#

bfa

fleet pagoda
#

Fartonfloor bold for playing aff with no fort or tyran up

hollow river
#

i didn't play bfa

waxen oyster
#

socket was roughly

dreamy rover
#

we're fartonfloor fans here tbf

waxen oyster
#

half the stat a piece had

gritty laurel
#

i like to pretend that getting one of every reasonable gem color to min-max the diamond is important, but i don't even bother simming the options

hollow river
#

i remember in SL sockets were somewhat impactful, like 1-2%? for full sockets?

waxen oyster
#

yeah nowhere near bfa bad

gritty laurel
#

fartonfloor went up like 30-40% dps between the last screenshot and this one, dude is a fast study

waxen oyster
#

bfa also could have sockets on trinkets

haughty flicker
#

if you're a gigachad and use speed gem

waxen oyster
#

or were trinkets excluded

#

you had over 10 sockets in bfa

haughty flicker
#

no virgin crit gem users here

waxen oyster
#

i use crit gem on dh

#

because if you need movespeed on that class

#

get help

haughty flicker
#

well

#

thats fair ig

#

i can accept that one

fleet pagoda
#

but faster is faster than fast

#

fasterer

royal lantern
waxen oyster
#

i dont get how that enh is so low though

#

just drop your totem?

#

and press the glowy

#

?????

gritty laurel
#

the sin who dropped his ruptures and pressed CT took all the hps away

#

no more damage left to deal

waxen oyster
#

granted its not as bad as when i queue into

#

a full ragnaros group

severe meadow
waxen oyster
#

It's like

#

-1k io

#

for accurate measure

royal lantern
#

then the shaman uses BL suddenly

#

tank asks "why bl now lol"

and the shaman just stands still, and goes on a rant how he should shut up and dont question better players

then the tank left ofc

#

nobody said a word for the entire run up to this point

#

i love Pug groups

waxen oyster
#

M+ players are beyond egotistic

#

its so funny

royal lantern
#

like, it literally was just "why bl lol"

haughty flicker
#

lmao

waxen oyster
#

I just dont invite pugs

#

if they dont raid

#

dps who dont usually suck ass

haughty flicker
#

the best m+ runs are always the ones where nobody says a word

#

as soon as people start talking it goes to hell

royal lantern
waxen oyster
haughty flicker
#

always gotta love gromnak

royal lantern
#

if you dont make atleast 1 Bee pun during meadery, what are you even doing at that point

waxen oyster
#

idk from my experience barring s1 this expac

#

enh players usually have more braincells

#

than ele

dreamy rover
waxen oyster
#

also tank players

dreamy rover
waxen oyster
#

the moment a tank player tells me his main job is to "make healer job easier" i know this guy aint got no balls

haughty flicker
#

if the tank doesnt pull the whole first room in mechagon i leave instantly

#

because i know he has no confidence

#

fucking coward

waxen oyster
#

real

royal lantern
#

and 24/7 talk about "omg i cant wait until raid is over and i can PUSH again!!!!!!!"

#

and they are almost always mediocre at best

waxen oyster
#

m+ title being acc wide

#

is the dumbest shit

dreamy rover
royal lantern
dreamy rover
#

"youre not echo why are you pushing M+"

#

literally can say the exact same thing about raids

#

why are you trying to do mythic clears youre not going to rwf

#

braindead moment

haughty flicker
#

trial by fire

#

we either know we time the key or we go next

waxen oyster
#

key doesnt get new mechanics at higher levels

#

maybe if keys actually required you to do damage again and not just

#

"live oneshots"

haughty flicker
#

also im playing boomkin because i hate myself

dreamy rover
haughty flicker
#

and that pull is the only way i can feel alive

dreamy rover
#

to say something like that

royal lantern
#

cus wtf are they doing

waxen oyster
#

no its pretty evident

#

legion/bfa m+ required higher damage checks

marble bane
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
waxen oyster
#

nowadays they just add a dozen kick/stop or die mechanics

royal lantern
#

and yeha, m+ dmg requirments did went WAAAY down

#

m+ is mostly survival.check

#

hell, aug was bad for dmg and played everywhere

#

cus it made survival more easy/possible at all

waxen oyster
#

i mean aug being the meta since its inception literally shows you

#

that its only a survival check

#

besides the fact like 90% of aug players are god awful

royal lantern
waxen oyster
#

No I just don't invite evokers

royal lantern
#

cus sooo many of them are "aug mains" that where riding the aug passenger princess train for 3patches now dracthyr_kek

waxen oyster
#

pres players are always perma out of range

#

and dev players have 0 awareness

#

if its a male dracthyr thats an instant decline

runic hinge
#

ive never seen a dev player push a defensive

waxen oyster
#

healer existed in SL when you were doing your 10th plaguefall of the day for trinket and stood in a swirly

#

Good - the spec shouldn’t exist, delete PI too even though it’s fun

dawn heath
#

assa is so fucking cracked on big momma or?

#

is there any other class that competes with us there

#

6.2mil dps on this bsos xD

severe meadow
#

Warlock

#

Had one in a run kill the adds so fast I couldn't even fully ramp

cinder bone
#

Yeah a good warlock is scary

dawn heath
#

i actually dont know why the y buffed assa

#

we did not need a buff

#

its already doing second highest overall dps in all key levels of all publoc logged m+ runs

#

and its middle of the pack in raid

#

crazy work when they're buffing assa ele balance and ret

#

kinda yikes

#

when they're already dominating m+

#

raid tuning is ruining keys

#

and nerfing sp xddd

raven locust
#

I'd wager more people care about raid tuning

#

by a lot

dawn heath
#

alot of people play keys this season, it doesnt have to be either or

#

they can do pvp tuning, when they tune them seperately

raven locust
#

Keys for most are a means to gear FOR raids

dapper halo
#

soon we will also have m+ tuning /s

dense cove
dawn heath
royal lantern
#

m+ brains acting as if all tuning ever is done only for raids

dawn heath
#

theres alot of players that feel the same way about raiding

royal lantern
dawn heath
#

raids are a means to an end to get gear

haughty flicker
weary spear
#

Tuning is done based on raids generally is it not lol

dawn heath
#

they nerf m+ outliers occasionally

haughty flicker
#

if they tune abilities to do damage differently in m+ and raid you could end up with shit where your rotation in m+ and in raid might be entirely different

dawn heath
#

aug nerfs were certainly m+ focused

royal lantern
weary spear
#

Only if it doesn’t affect raid negatively

haughty flicker
#

i mean its kind of rough right

#

boomkin is fucking terrible on every fight except stix this raid

royal lantern
#

they literally killed aug because of m+ btw

haughty flicker
#

but its also dominating in m+

weary spear
#

This tuning pass is a bad example obvs

dawn heath
#

they already have tthis in place

#

they already have darkness working differently for example in raids and m+

weary spear
#

Aug had a negative impact on raiding as well

dawn heath
#

they just need to tweak numbers while in key stones or in in raid

haughty flicker
dawn heath
#

its not that difficult

royal lantern
#

aug was not a real problem in raids since tww

haughty flicker
#

its already weird enough with disc

#

imagine if abilities were tuned differently enough that you just had an entirely different rotation in keys than you do in raid

#

which im almost certain would happen

dawn heath
#

they could make specs alot more balanced by tuning things seperately while maintaining raid balance

#

its just a win win

royal lantern
# dawn heath its not that difficult

mate

everytime a Gamer says "just do X, its not that difficult" about literally ANYTHING

it is 20000x more difficult then they think and they should stop talking

dawn heath
#

just more work on their end

weary spear
#

I think it’s fair to say they do tune based on raid, however there is outliers sometimes

dawn heath
#

i mean

#

nerfing spriest was super unneeded

haughty flicker
#

its always necessary to make sure spriests know their place

dawn heath
#

its pretty obvious they cant balance both, and people just love to play what they wanna play why restrict people just have certainl abilities do more/less damage in keystones/raid and u can achieve way more balance

#

ww monk for example

royal lantern
#

yep, you have no idea what you are talking about

dawn heath
#

and neither do you

weary spear
#

Lol

dawn heath
#

it is not difficult to do

weary spear
#

It’s a fair view don’t take it so personal

#

Like he said it would be more work. But if they did it correctly sure it’s viable

dawn heath
#

how dare you want things to be balanced BUHU

#

ITS SO DIFFICULT FOR THE DEVELOPERS WEEH WEEEH

#

they need to apply a aura buff on X ability in keystones

royal lantern
dawn heath
#

woww

royal lantern
#

its funny

dawn heath
#

and have you?

#

what makes you an expert on this opinion?

#

u are just talking out of your ass

royal lantern
#

ofc not, but im smart enough to not say "just do X its not diffcult!!!!"

dawn heath
#

what makes you so certain that its so hard to do when there are already mechanics in the game for this in place

#

well it isnt

royal lantern
#

thats like the guys that say "just fix bugs"

dawn heath
#

you can apply aura tweaking on abilities

#

how is it harder than that?

#

this is too much damage in raid but too low damage in keys?

#

have spining crane kick to less damge in raids but remain the same in keys

#

WOWOWW SO HARD

#

AND TECHNICAL

#

INSANEEE

hidden bay
#

Insane yapping

hollow river
#

it just adds an entire extra layer of complexity

royal lantern
#

you have literally not a single clue about the inner workings of the game

upper wraith
#

easy specs should be dog water dps

royal lantern
#

jesus fucking christ

hollow river
#

you DO NOT want m+ modifiers on abilities

#

trust

dawn heath
#

if it achieves balance

haughty flicker
#

and now you have to use spinning crane kick in entirely different ways in m+ and raid

hollow river
#

you think you do

haughty flicker
#

despite the same target count

#

and now entire talent builds can change

dawn heath
#

i was just throwing out a random ability

haughty flicker
#

based on tuning

hollow river
dawn heath
#

it will get a whole lot CLOSER than what it is

haughty flicker
hollow river
#

there's pvp modifiers on a lot of things, and more often than not its just annoying

dawn heath
#

perfect balance will never exist but when some specs, but buffing specs that are already meta because they suck in raidss is just so fuckign rough

#

ok well annoying? for what for you?

#

its great

hollow river
#

for pvpers

royal lantern
#

we are in frking week3 of the patch, what meta

dawn heath
#

u don't even play keys

#

ofcourse u dont care

hollow river
#

who?

royal lantern
#

when most people barely have functional gear at all lol

dawn heath
#

you are so insaley raid biased

#

if they tuned based on m+ only u wouldnt be happy either would you

hollow river
haughty flicker
#

still have yet to provide a valid rebuttal to my point

#

but its just that easy

dawn heath
#

they're buffing moonkins

royal lantern
dawn heath
#

what point

#

you brought up a bunch of nonsense

haughty flicker
#

if its nonsense then disprove it

#

why is it nonsense

#

make a point

dawn heath
#

what was your point

royal lantern
#

so you call him out for nonsense and dont even know what he said????

haughty flicker
#

if you dont know what the point was then how do you know it was nonsense

#

are you going to say anything useful or just say blizzard bad

weary spear
#

I get the point but tuning is pretty balanced in m+ right now. I’d say extremely

dawn heath
#

so what if it "changes" builds? who cares

weary spear
#

Could get title with any class this season

waxen oyster
#

changes builds

haughty flicker
#

changes entire rotations

waxen oyster
#

as if most players dont copy streamers

haughty flicker
#

on the same target count

weary spear
#

Warrior and monk are kinda stinky ig

haughty flicker
#

with hidden modifiers

hidden bay
haughty flicker
#

that most players wont know

hidden bay
dawn heath
#

weirdge

waxen oyster
#

spriest needed a nerf

#

anyway

dawn heath
#

your logs

royal lantern
# weary spear I get the point but tuning is pretty balanced in m+ right now. I’d say extremely

its week3, they tune some specs to work better in raid cus they are heavy under/overperfoming there and most people dont do big m+ pushing early on when that needs some gear anyway

when raid stuff is more balanced out so we dont end with "for one armed bandit you need 6shadow priests" they will look more at m+ outliers again and do changes there, as thats also the time where more people start to push m+ more

you know, the thing we have every season

dawn heath
#

maybe u should work on your own opener

royal lantern
#

sorry, i mean i hate m+ and dont do keys, ignore me

dawn heath
#

actually

#

u need to work on everything im pretty sure

hollow river
#

we're not going to start log shaming people

dawn heath
#

mate

hollow river
#

fuck off with that

dawn heath
#

he was calling me out

hollow river
#

i'm talking to both of you

dawn heath
#

bro is fucking dogshit at the game

hidden bay
#

Not sure who you looking at but that ain’t me omegalul

dawn heath
#

someone you linked

#

either way

#

i just play raids to get gear

#

my rogue is my alt

#

bro is mythic raiding and getting farmed by a m+ players alt who doesnt even care

#

i checked your logs

#

im doing more dps than you on most fights

#

xdddd

#

crazy

cringe

nice sprocket log

Yo i didn't order a yappaccino

Pipe down

tawdry halo
#

What on earth

sudden brook

Lil guppy's goin crazy rn

#

I thought whispyr was the only person allowed to act a bit unhinged

#

And that’s because he deals with stupid questions galore

haughty flicker
cinder bone
#

bruh

dawn heath
#

bro thinks he is good cause he decided to grief his raid playing assa on the boss when sub is fucking cracked and there is literally 1 parse and its him, how about you learn to play sub and stop griefing your raid

sudden brook
#

Yo

#

I said shut the fuck up

dawn heath
#

playing sin on rik reverb

#

what a clown

sudden brook
#

Yo

#

Hello

#

Can u read english

#

@dawn heath

#

Hello @dawn heath

dawn heath
#

sup

sudden brook
#

Shut the fuck up

#

Thanks

dawn heath
#

this clown started

sudden brook
#

Don't care

#

Didn't ask

cinder bone
#

they need to make sub good in pvp only again

hollow river
#

those days have long since passed

royal lantern
hollow river
#

idk if sub will ever be as good as it used to be in pvp again

cinder bone
hollow river
#

they are more scared to let sub be good in pvp than they are about sub on that old boss in bfa

sudden brook
#

its just rng what specs are good at what

hollow river
#

ye for pve its all about fight design

sudden brook
#

I mean even spec design

runic hinge
sudden brook
#

sometimes sub is the burstiest spec in the game

#

Sometimes it aint

hollow river
#

i don't think its been that spec in pvp in a loooong time

royal lantern
runic hinge
#

stun bot for whatever mage spec is strong now

royal lantern
cinder bone
#

sub was busted in legion

#

sstrike still had teleport every cast

hollow river
#

now that they've removed Duel + nerfed its burst and buffed its consistent damage, its damn near in shambles

royal lantern
#

they removed duel?

hollow river
#

yeah

cinder bone
#

wow

royal lantern
#

weird choice lol

cinder bone
#

thats criminal

sudden brook
#

Duel was fucking bustado

cinder bone
#

rogue was great in pvp for 2 reasons: stuns and duel

hollow river
#

its only busted when you can actually kill with it

haughty flicker
#

duel was cool

royal lantern
hollow river
#

rupture damage Clueless

sudden brook
#

Still a stunbot

cinder bone
#

maybe i should roll mage and hit 2700io even though I only do 1.4m dps overall

sudden brook
#

Didnt sub just get mega nerfed in pvp for being too good

hollow river
#

no

#

they nerfed its burst and buffed consistent damage because it was literally AFK outside of burst

cinder bone
#

rogue get nerfed in pvp because people have flashbacks to classic wow getting wrecked

hollow river
#

doing 200k DPS while everyone else was doing 500k+

#

like it has been

#

for the past 2 expansions

#

it was barely even good

sudden brook
#

I see

#

Subs kinda harder to balance just cuz all the extra CC it gets

hollow river
#

pvp these days is like a dps race

#

trying to force the other team to fall behind on healing/dps

#

etc

sudden brook
#

Ya meta too

#

Just like, sin/otl passive damge just kinda out paces u

waxen oyster
#

rogue is usually good in pvp to enable mages

#

to be unhinged

hollow river
#

or warlocks

sudden brook
#

What sub is good at isn't what the meta wants rn

hollow river
#

its funny

waxen oyster
#

blame m+

#

for excess micro cc

sudden brook
#

huh

waxen oyster
#

shit ton of aoe stops

#

etc

sudden brook
#

I dont understand the correlation

haughty flicker
#

why are we talking about pvp in the cat channel

#

go away

runic hinge
#

aoe stops is how you force healers to die or trinket where sub used to be able to lock down a single target really well and now half the classes can cc everything on repeat

cerulean walrus
runic hinge
#

i mean

sudden brook
#

I feel like not that many micro CCs have been added to the game

sudden brook
#

they have always just existed

hollow river
haughty flicker
#

you can stay if you post a cat gif

waxen oyster
#

maybe its just evoker then

runic hinge
#

idt frost dk has always been like that

sudden brook
#

Frost DK has always spammed you with micro CCs in pvp

hollow river
sudden brook
#

What sigils did DH get

#

dps dh

waxen oyster
#

fear

hollow river
#

fear

haughty flicker
#

fear

sudden brook
#

isnt it dogshit

waxen oyster
#

it was added with df trees

hollow river
#

idk if its dogshit, they def use it

runic hinge
#

they made fears take more damage

#

to break

#

except when i cast them they break insta

#

gg bad rng

haughty flicker
#

true

waxen oyster
#

my favorite cc is mortal coil

#

because it inherently has a tendency to path you out of healer los

hollow river
#

the biggest issue imo is that they nerfed a fuckload of the real CC

#

while also adding in a bunch of micro CC

waxen oyster
#

gonna be honest any season i take pvp in this game serious

#

warlock being good makes it 100x less fun

ripe carbon
#

hows mega magnet work, is it on cd with signet/house of cards or it doesnt trgigger that? or is it means that BiS is seaforium+magnet?

balmy condor
#

all on use trinkets share cooldown

#

but it doesn't matter cause you obviously cast signet/cards with deathmark

ripe carbon
#

ah ok

fringe spear
#

magnet is flexible anyway

#

Doesn't matter when you use it as long as it doesn't interfere with other on uses and you don't let it cap stacks

runic hinge

you just use it during lingering

after the cd from using hoc or signet

ugly trinket tbh i just wouldn't loot it

proven talon
#

In the wowhead opener for ST, why is it that we go ambush -> garrote -> and then directly into rupture? When I do this is it incorrect that I don’t have full combo points for that rupture then? I would’ve thought we would want a full combo point rupture for the deathmark coming up

balmy condor
#

you should have 6 with shrouded

#

or 4 without

#

typically we don't take shrouded

#

so 4 into the mut is the 5 you need

proven talon
#

Oh I do see now the label for the branching mutilate there. I’m really sorry for missing that! Okay, that does make me feel a lot better on that though haha. Yeah, not talented into shrouded

Thank you

On big opener in m+ , I ambush -> garr -> rup -> rup -> mut -> garr -> CT. Here’s my question tho, because now I have DN. If FoK as my next ability only gives me 5 CP, should I build to 7 with another FoK to clear DN? Or do I just send a 5 CP envenom to get into DM+KB quicker

#

Only saves 1 GCD but I’d like to know what’s correct

if my CT is usually really close in damage to spatter, could I relate that to the fact that I'm probably spending more time than needed in general dotting shit up and being dumb instead of envenom spamming?

#

been noticing that trend recently on my runs

golden loom
#

CT is a broken ability

#

it should be up there with spatter

barren zenith
#

yeah, I just noticed after peeping some top logs that they have way more spatter damage relative to CT than me in dungeons like floodgate

#

not sure if it's just the size of the pulls or me fucking up

CT amp damage per target is calculated when casted or while it runs?

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.

  • Deathstalker prefers more Mastery/Haste due to Darkest Night guaranteeing a crit

So, I did a 9 top as sub cause someone said that it profiles better for it but when but I wasn’t able to complete it cause of a ddos attack last night, but compared to the same 9 as SIN rogue (bleed) I did way more dps overall? Is there a reason why ppl say that sub is better in ToPand WS?

peeposhrug i wouldn't overthink it. if you're better/more comfortable at sin, you'll always have better results with it. could be skewed a bit with bleed build on a key that doesn't have fortified active, as well.

What you enjoy the most

Whichever you enjoy more

for m+ you'll have it

dense ruin

so do I use vanish the last 6 seconds or 12 during deathmark xd

unreal tide
#

You're more often using vanish to re-bleed everything than cranking DM, if you're trying to get the MA buff it's 12 (6+6)IIRC

dense ruin
#

was thinik in st

golden loom
#

well vanishing during dm/kb is for master assassin, you vanish at 6 seconds usually cause you want to cover it the most of the end of kingsbane, but with sutberfuege you get to cover 12 seconds of kb instead

burnt star

#

so yes you vanish a couple seconds after casting kingsbane

burnt star
#

Its adaptive to your talent set up too

Since u always do. Dm/kingsbane. The vanish timer should align naturally

is there a way to do talent tree comparisons? like you would do, with gear compare

You absolutely can

You probably just have somehting like "replace and sim all the gems" enabled that ramps up the iterations

this is what I get. apparently I still have my old data from when I tried last time.

why are you swapping targets

#

your bleeds have smart cleave

#

just stay on one target

Thats one thing I`d like to know, if I grrote+rupture the same target, not swapping

coral ibex
#

i swear every new player thinks they need to swap despite the guides all saying your bleeds have smart cleave

#

Could I get a log review on one armed bandit from anyone, please? not sure if I need a separate thread or something

coral ibex
#

!carnage

prisma monolithBOT
#

Indiscriminate Carnage Targetting and Swapping
TLDRMouseovers/Target swapping is optimal on 6 target, or 8+ targets, but not necessarily required

  • The 2 Bleeds spread by carnage are smart and will prioritize mobs without the bleed. If everything already has bleeds it'll apply randomly
  • You as the character are still casting the bleed against your target like normal, this is why people will sometimes use mouseover macros or swap targets

Swapping targets is situationally better, but can be ignored if you're having difficulties with it. Take 5 mob aoe as an example, your first garrote cast will apply to 3 targets (your target + 2 more). Regardless of if you swap or not, your second cast of garrote will hit your target, and then apply 2 more garrotes, prioritizing the mobs that do not have garrote. In very large aoe pulls (12 or more), a standard opener (garrote-garrote-rupture-rupture-garrote-garrote) will only apply 9 garrotes (3+2+2+2) and 5 ruptures (3+2) if you do not swap, losing you 3 garrotes and a rupture.

It is technically worse, but the situations in which you lose bleeds aren't very common; the lost ruptures/garrotes don't contribute much to your already flooded energy, you don't get additional scent of blood stacks, etc. The loss is purely the extra damage from those bleeds.

coral ibex
#

just hit one guy
