Balance in all things

every time kingsbane got parried on progress bosses I wanted to immediately jump off the nearest ledge (in game?)

#

Hey guys, is bleed build competitive in 12/13 pug ?

quasi hill
#

The difference is, less ramp ?

any gamers mind taking a look at a m+ log of mine on bleed? not sure if I'm over garroting/rupturing in mass aoe situations during IC windows. feel like on lower keys I do better (obviously because less pressure/less risks of dying etc), and would like to know how to best deal with such situations if possible

patent iron
#

I've never actually used Iron Wire.

#

does it have an aoe silence compoent?

red schooner
#

Applies the silence onto every mob hit with it

#

What is the average parse we can expect when using the rotation helper in game addon?

humble verge
#

grey logs

iron vapor
#

Rotation helper as in Hekili?

#

Absolute dog shit parses. Smooth brain, extra chromosome, flat earther, chemtrail tier parses.

I know your awake

But, we'll see

red schooner
#

My raid leader has already said if he catches anyone trying it in raid they're getting immediately benched kekdog

iron vapor
#

Hoooold up,is that just going to give a single button to spam and it'll pick the spells for you?

hot flicker
#

Can you edit the rotation of spells it does?

red schooner
#

But with a slight GCD delay

iron vapor
#

Hahaha yeah I'm rolling ret pala, Let's goooo

red schooner
hot flicker
#

Might be equal to manual play Tbf

#

Considering we are humans and will make mistakes

#

This button will not

#

Just for a 0.2 sec delay

iron vapor
red schooner
iron vapor
#

But that means moving my fingers from one button to another.

hot flicker
#

Ret already has a single button rotation

#

Divine storm

#

Pack deadage

iron vapor
#

If I can just spam a side button on my mouse...

hot flicker
#

I mean i dont see the issue if they give you this button but increase mechanical intensity

#

On mobs/bosses

iron vapor
#

Even better, bind to mouse wheel up/down

iron vapor
hot flicker
#

I had a tank we raided mythic before who actually constructed a 1 button macro

#

That actually did his whole rotation on 1 button

iron vapor
#

What a hero

hot flicker
#

He bound it to his W key

#

Was madness

iron vapor
#

I reckon I'd bind it to A & D and just vibrate on the spot.

#

Either way, the rotation helper will be dogturd.

red schooner
#

Legit I'm terrified that several people on my team will just toggle it on and try to hide it

hot flicker
#

Some people need it for sure

humble verge
#

esp like prot warrior, feels like they are just pressing what glows most of the time - maybe im wrong

balmy condor
#

the gcd increase is pretty brutal to be fair

humble verge
#

.2 seconds aint it

balmy condor
#

I think 0.2 probably less impactful for casters and stuff

#

but man

#

outlaw with +0.2%

humble verge
#

for us its ass

#

or yeah

#

outlaw

balmy condor
#

you just actually lose like 20% of your damage straight up

humble verge
#

im sure if we use the one button in DM push, we miss out on one charged kb hit

balmy condor
#

they could've honestly just slapped a 10-15% damage done reduction on it and it would've been the same thing

humble verge
#

kek

#

honestly asking

balmy condor
#

but you just do less muts/envenom during shiv

humble verge
#

how many hits are you guys getting with kb

royal lantern
#

whisp, why did you hide the REAL opener from us btw

balmy condor
#

which is also ass

balmy condor
humble verge
#

i feel you can only get 4 hits in kb window

balmy condor
red schooner
#

Tryan, sprocket prog last night, guess which spec was the one consistently yeeting people off of the platform

balmy condor

red schooner

It's always the fucking chickens

humble verge
red schooner
#

I swear

balmy condor
humble verge
#

full combo hits

#

with envenom

balmy condor
#

it's rng?

royal lantern
#

3

my answer is 3

#

dont question it, 3

humble verge
#

idk, ive figured out 4

balmy condor
#

typically you get 2 per shiv cause you can spend the superchargers before the end

red schooner
humble verge
#

yeah

balmy condor
#

but where is this going

humble verge
#

idk

balmy condor
#

idk either

humble verge
#

my answer questioned

balmy condor
#

who is tracking that

humble verge
#

i see people who track kb damage as WA

balmy condor
#

yeah but they do that for dopamine of big number

humble verge
#

kek

red schooner
#

His name says he asks stupid questions, idk what we were expecting

balmy condor
#

yeah true mb

#

forgor

humble verge
#

whisp forgot im the most stupid person in this discord

balmy condor
#

that is just not true

humble verge
#

somehow im raiding mugzee on mythic

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

you just ask the weirdest questions

humble verge
red schooner
#

The amount of bad drills I had to dodge was WAY TOO FUCKING HIGH

balmy condor
#

the questions you ask aren't really stupid as in dumbfuck stupid

red schooner
#

Idk I like that boss as melee though I barely do anything

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

they're stupid as in like your brain needs to be studied cause the thought process is fried

#

which is better

#

I think

#

idk

You can say that Blizz confirmed it in notes @balmy condor

amber brook
#

Whats the rotation like for the new cooked build

nova shadow
#

I do ambush > fan of knives > rupture > rupture > multilate > fok > crimson tempest > cds > nuke all the spatter/envenoms

hot flicker
#

No garrote?

amber brook
#

Aoe? would ST be raid opener but do we envenom b4 CT or CT first?

nova shadow
#

ye no garrotes only on boss I keep uptime on garrote

amber brook
#

garrote is kinda weak since the build doesnt run any tals for it

hot flicker
#

Is this a new build your talking about?

#

Right

static glacier

#

Ross's cooked one

#

There’s a lot of possible sin builds

#

Care to link? He ain’t messaged in a while

nova shadow
#

I sent a ss where I was playing zeross / casualaddict build idk who invented it

static glacier
#

I’m guessing it’s high key st focused with FI?

hot flicker
#

Isn’t bleed build still out simming all or I missed something

nova shadow
amber brook
#

Think it was this?

nova shadow
#

so huge prior damage and huge st

tawdry mica
#

Guys for how long has Gallywix Trickshots been bugged? Or is it "intended" to work like that?

#

i'm wondering why blizzard aint doing nothing to fix that

tawdry mica
#

it's been more than a month lol

plush wasp
#

good morning guys and girls, whats the change in the m+rota now when leaving out kingsbane and playing 2 shivs?

hot flicker
#

I mostly stick to hybrid I prefer to feel impactful on bosses I know bleed build sims equal to it but it feels so bad on bosses just refreshing bleeds so I tend to choose hybrid

nova shadow

Killing spree on 1st boss floodgate is peak comedy with sonic boom

hot flicker
static glacier
#

You also do real boss damage unlike sin

nova shadow
#

I have no idea how to play sub or outlaw 😄 I play rog for 2 months

hot flicker
#

Just before you drop down the hole hearth swap to sub

#

Sub will destroy last boss

nova shadow
#

but with the zeross build I did rookery 14 yesterday and I was 2.2m on rookery last boss and with bleed hardly around 1.3-4

static glacier
#

One time I swapped to raid build for last boss rookery and got summoned by a lock

#

Did like 2.3m dps on it

hot flicker
#

Yeah bleeds st doesn’t feel impactful at all

#

Only reason I don’t like it

nova shadow
#

it is non existing imo, if you want to rock bleed you need pumper windwaker and like arms war maybe

#

resto sham guardian dudu

static glacier
#

I think it’s basically the same as hybrid no?

#

For st

balmy condor
#

what's the issue with it

nova shadow
#

if you go raw

indigo sphinx
nova shadow
#

you are 900k dps

indigo sphinx
#

But also ye swap sub after 2nd boss 5Head

tawdry mica
balmy condor
tawdry mica
#

That's what the tooltip says

balmy condor
tawdry mica
#

Or when it reaches 10 stacks, well it just won't reset

#

and it pops when it reaches like 14 stacks dealing stupid raid damage

#

2,5mil per stack, imagine

balmy condor
#

okay

#

why is this an issue

#

it just sounds like if your tanks are absolute braindead idiots, you wipe

#

seems fine

tall atlas
#

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

midnight mist
#

weird its only kb

#

and not every spell in the game

#

might be a miss type

balmy condor
#

"miss type" might be a mistype

midnight mist
#

!

tawdry mica
#

If it worked properly it should reset at 4-5 max, that's the interval in which tanks are taunting, 4-5 stacks of trick shots can be decently healed, but +10 (usually 14) is too much to heal

What I mean is that that spell isn't resetting no matter what the tanks do

midnight mist
#

you know what whispyr

#

i tought you were nice lately

#

no longer !

tawdry mica
#

It's doable but healers gotta work much more just that

midnight mist
#

Im r1 whispyr hater again

tall atlas
#

hes a masterjebaiter

balmy condor
midnight mist
#

holy

#

wtf

#

I will try harder

balmy condor
#

yeh idk

iron vapor
#

What about barrels though? Should I switch?

balmy condor
#

looks like it reset and then didn't

tawdry mica
#

I see, yeah

#

According to the tooltip it CAN'T go over 10

#

Since it's the limit

#

Weird

balmy condor
#

looks like swapping resets 10 stacks

#

so it went from 15 to 5

tawdry mica
#

ICANT well that's why I was wondering if it's intended or not since they didnt give a fuck about fixing it
it's whatever though, just bring +1 +2 healers and fixed

#

but still

iron vapor
#

That's fucked, isn't it supposed to just dump at 10 stacks and murder the tank?

#

To kinda force regular swaps

tawdry mica
#

But if you're short on healers, good luck dealing with p1 damage+healing absorbs+ 15 stacks of trick shots

So I am thinking about switching to ass from sub. But every crafted piece I have is haste/mast and most of my gear is vers/mast. I have some hero track pieces with crit/mast/haste. But this will be dreadful transition if I don't recraft and resocket/enchat my gear for ass, yes ?

balmy condor
#

Secondaries are fake on this spec

spice surge
#

On most specs really

balmy condor
#

Just wear whatever and it’ll be fine

#

Isn’t bis sub gear like -2% to bis assa

#

Less than that?

spice surge
#

Id be surprised if it was that high

balmy condor
#

I checked at some point but I don’t remember anymore

#

I think it was less than that but I remember a 2

#

Maybe 1.2

radiant sorrel
#

Tbh only my ring and cloack are ver/mast (outside 4 of my crafted items)

tall atlas
#

yea thats fine as long as you have 2 daggers youre golden pew pew

radiant sorrel
#

but wouldn't mind more haste. I tried ass 3 weeks into the patch and had like 0 energy regen

balmy condor
#

Haste doesn’t fix that

#

That’s the spec

radiant sorrel
#

This is 1 of dag the other one is Rick's dagger

balmy condor
#

It’s like sub between dances not having energy either

#

That’s fine

#

Any daggers will do

#

They have shit for secondaries

red schooner

Some utility ya'know

tall atlas
#

do it Ian i know youre in here

#

@midnight mist

red schooner
#

Or smokebomb allowing restealth maybe in dungeons? Would be neat

tall atlas
#

your stream music is making me horny

All I'm saying pve smokebomb has possibilities

midnight mist
#

bro gooning to my stream

#

do you always stream at this time?

midnight mist
#

no

red schooner
midnight mist
#

its an holiday today

tall atlas
#

I never knew i work from home id always log in

#

ah ok

midnight mist
#

i work from like 9 to 6

#

so i stream at 7 usually

#

and the weekends

tall atlas
#

uk time?

midnight mist
#

french time

#

that would be uk time

#

+1 ?

#

-1 ?

tall atlas
#

think so ye

midnight mist
#

or is it same

tall atlas
#

+1

midnight mist
#

ye

tall atlas
#

server time

red schooner
#

But like, DK grip is viewed as raid utility by blizz, so why not rogue smokebomb to force mobs into the melee cluster for utility?

midnight mist
#

ye

red schooner
#

It's a good plan there's probably some glaring downside I'm not thinking of though

midnight mist
#

I mean a los ability ?

#

that probably break half the mechanics in the game

#

other than that

#

i cant see any downsides

tall atlas
#

nah remove the LoS

red schooner
tall atlas
#

just DR

red schooner
#

Idk there's options

midnight mist
#

well then its just another aoe dr

red schooner
#

But some raid utility would be nice

midnight mist
#

sure

tall atlas
#

zephyr, mass barrier, Group AMS

midnight mist
#

i liked fuu idea

tall atlas
#

would give us something

midnight mist
#

of getting ryze teleport

#

aoe shadowstep

tall atlas
#

hm

red schooner
#

Hell yeah

tall atlas
#

where would that be applicable tho really

#

and that with shroud

midnight mist
#

its like a gate

#

but different

red schooner
#

Idk I just wanna bring something outside of damage to raid

tall atlas
#

ye true

midnight mist
#

its a gate with different applications idk i think it could be interesting

weak cypress
tall atlas
#

u just simp for fuu

#

oh shit alt j

#

You're welcome.

midnight mist
#

np

tall atlas
#

oooo

#

cos u got a long wayyy to go

red schooner
#

But yeah this season in particular just feels eh for rogues in raids. Like, damage numbers are fine, it's not a gripe at that, it's just not being able to help with some of the mechanical things in raid that need to be done, like Rik barrels/territorial bombshells/OAB adds

#

We bring good boss damage but so can every class

spice surge
#

Sub does well on the things that arent the bombshells

#

Its just slightly overtuned for overall

red schooner
#

But some raid utility would help mitigate that feeling at least

balmy condor
#

Atrophic is honestly pretty good

#

It’s not immediately noticeable but the DR passively removes a ton of raid damage

red schooner
#

Yeah true, I forgot about that, it's just as you said it's hard to notice due to it being passive

Gonna take however long they took to make kingsbane unparryable to fix that for sure

balmy condor

It’s also just super whatever

Time to not read it and then ask about it in chat

red schooner
#

I remember boss 2 motherlode it applied to him

#

For some reason

balmy condor
#

I don’t think so but that shits so janky

#

It also works on first boss priory

#

But can’t tell why

#

Sometimes it also just doesn’t work

#

I think it might be if you blind an add in the fight it just jumps to the boss

#

But that’s not been consistent for me either

#

Idk it’s all spaghetti

red schooner
#

Yeah I've not really messed around with it, I've just sent blind sometimes and gone 'the fuck is that doing on the boss?'

i think

and when to FOK?

Fok Conditions Post-Buff
Fan of Knives as a generator to replace ambush/mutilate:

  • Baseline 3+ targets, -1 if talented into momentum of despair and thrown precision, +1 if talented into vicious venoms, +1 if talented into blindside. (Generally 5 with raid build, 3 with Bleed m+, 2 with Hybrid m+)
    Fan of Knives with Clear the Witnesses Up:
  • Baseline 2+ targets, -1 if lingering darkness is up or you aren't talented into vicious venoms. With Vicious Venoms casting during lingering darkness is dps neutral.
    Fan of Knives with Darkest Night Up:
  • Only on 2+ targets, or without Vicious Venoms talented. This is also a very very minor optimization

The most important to remember is the generator rules, clear the witnesses and darkest night optimizations can be effectively ignored as they are not meaningful DPS improvements

does mastery amplify zoldycks recipie?

marble hemlock
#

wdym?

manic coral
#

oh yeah its was worded horribly

marble hemlock
#

mastery increases poison/bleed damage. so does zoldyk. if smth does x amount of damage after mastery applies and zoldyck also applies, itll just get the zoldyck benefit too

manic coral
#

yy nah i mean like

#

would mastery be better in execute rather then flat out vers even if vers sims better

#

like does patchwork sims factor in execute range and yada yada

Yes sims factor in execute

Do I have to just save deathmark for bosses in bleed? Its literally tank damage without it

humble verge

you still wanna use it for big hp mobs

#

but yeah

#

generally save it for bosses if you can

#

Anyone know if there is a quick way to not show useless debuffs on player since there is a ton on rogue? Or do you have to disable them one by one

warm vortex
#

Like if a boss is coming up save it but even if it comes up like 20 seconds into the fight it’s Gucci

humble verge

pm yes

warm vortex

Fair

#

Tbh I wouldn’t know

But I’m with you fuck the ring

spice spire
#

Ye for me it was heroic jastor and crafted

warm vortex
#

I’m so happy I don’t have to run it on BM

#

For me it’s champion jast and myth ring

Funny at this point I have more champion items equipped than heroic

coral ibex

because thats the gear he has

whatever data scraping website you got that pic from isn't making an intelligent recommendation for stats

its just telling you what people have equipped

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.

  • Signet of the Priory will require you have Mastery as your highest RATING (the actual number, not the %). Having Crit and Mastery close to one another will cause procs from Flask or Seaforium Pacemaker to cause your Signet to give you Crit. This is generally worse and will cause Signet to sim poorly.
  • Compared to each other, Deathstalker wants more Mastery/Haste than Fatebound, and Fatebound wants more Crit than Deathstalker
  • Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results

TLDR sim

well hes also running crit/vers on his neck

so theres that

I love all these stupid spunkjunker clips

#

Cause ik my guilds gonna be stuck on him for a few weeks

coral ibex
#

i gotta lock in on sprocket tonight and get a better log

#

capstone in opener all night

warm vortex
#

I need better logs this season
My overall ones look v good for heroic tho

coral ibex
#

wanna hear a good bit

#

i accidentally bought multiple gateway control shards

#

before sprocket prog

#

so i tried to sell them on the ah before raid on tuesday

#

guess who had 0 gateway control shards in their bag

warm vortex
#

Mythic ones are eh but heroic ones are peak

coral ibex
#

bc auctionator put them all up on the AH

#

just got knocked off like a dummy

warm vortex
#

Hahah

#

Tbh I don’t even know what gateway shards do

#

Enlighten me

spice surge
#

It uses the warlock gateway

warm vortex
#

Can’t you just click on it

#

Or interact with it

spice surge
#

You can, but if theres 20 people standing ontop of it and you need to click it at a very precise time

violet hemlock
#

On use it clicks the nearest gateway so u can keybind it

sage basin
#

easier and more consistent with a control shard, good luck clicking it when there's everyone waiting

spice surge
#

Its easier to just have it keybound through the shard

warm vortex
#

Fair
But can’t you also just interact with things near your player?

#

With a hot key

#

Like balls in ML first boss and shit

spice surge
#

Nowadays ye

coral ibex
#

i just had the control shard on my bars

warm vortex
#

Ahh ok ok

coral ibex
warm vortex
#

You could have controlled* it better then

coral ibex
#

luckily we didn't kill it on that pull

#

i get a chance at redemption

warm vortex
#

Yea

#

Tbh I hope my guild doesn’t take too long in Richard

coral ibex
#

richard is strongly nerfed by gear so shouldnt be too bad

warm vortex
#

Fair I am huge atm

50k gold for more advice

spice spire
#

You’re so real for that king

coral ibex
#

i can't not think about it

#

there are 0 fatebound logs in the top 100

#

this is good to know

#

oh wait there is 1 from 11.1

royal lantern
sudden brook
#

It is a good system

#

It's just rogue ones are a bit stinky

gray sleet
#

i have 50k i need advice, im deciding between fucking my sister or my cousin

coral ibex
sudden brook
#

Is how good a system is defined by how diverse it is?

coral ibex
#

if the system is supposed to support diversity of choice

sudden brook
#

What about all the other specs/classes that actually do have it

coral ibex
#

they're just lucky to have devs who care Copege

spice spire
#

I’m in guy’s side here

#

On even

sudden brook
#

Sin hero talents stink, but the system is fine

#

Well, I like deathstalker

#

But fatebound kinda stinky for both at this point

warm vortex
#

Im I have like no idea what’s happening im in a dim room i have water given to me in 2 day cycles and outside is a house with green paint

coral ibex
#

rng capstone activation is truly a choice of all time

spice spire
#

Deathstalker is fine until you have a mark moment

sudden brook
#

Thankfully we dont play MA this tier so

#

No mark moments

spice spire
#

And for those who have VV simming worse sucks to suck

sudden brook
#

well it sims worse for most ppl

#

But VV is better in cleave

#

and the entire raid is cleave

spice spire
#

Which is most of the raid ye

coral ibex
#

yea VV is a lot worse in ST for me

spice spire
#

And then you’re also in the line of

#

If you’re only in st

#

You’ll never have a mark moment

#

Happens in dungeons occasionally and it gets eaten randomly and by some bosses (looking at you council boss in top)

coral ibex
#

until you get DN on rik reverb as the intermission comes up

spice spire
#

And like in theory it’s dogshit but in play it’s fine

coral ibex
#

then ur in the shadow realm

#

hope you have vanish bud

#

(you should)

hollow talon
#

isnt fatebund only good for one fight this raid

scarlet sequoia
#

u guys happy about the m+ trinkets being added

sudden brook
#

I like the play pattern of deathstalker tbh

hollow talon
#

i guess so, played with heroic skardyns all last tier

sudden brook
#

It's just yeah when U have to swap its a bit annoying

humble verge
#

nah, cause hoc is still better than signet

#

by 1k in my sims

sudden brook
#

signet would be better on shorter fights

coral ibex
spice spire
#

Also you’re buffing your friends with signet

humble verge
#

im kinda happy i got hero skardyn after a while

spice spire
#

My rogue already has both trinkets it wants tho

#

So garf

scarlet sequoia
coral ibex
#

they're throwing "bad luck protection" at me when i haven't killed any bosses where my bad luck would have mattered

#

i dont get it

humble verge
sudden brook
#

what are u complaining about?

hollow talon
#

why cant i buy sylvanas dagger from the dinar vendor

#

blizzard pls

sudden brook
#

facts

coral ibex
#

i just dont really care to be given bad luck protection when i havent even completed the tier yet

sudden brook
#

Okay?

coral ibex
#

now i will kill oab and go redeem my mythic trinket

sudden brook
#

Mythic oab though, right?

hollow talon
#

how many p2 pulls will it take to kill OAB

coral ibex
#

yea that's what we're progging atm

hollow talon
#

we're like 2 weeks in and we got to 30% once

sudden brook
#

I mean that's fine

hollow talon
sudden brook
#

Its like 100 weeks into the tier

#

Ppl can have some dinars

scarlet sequoia
#

last phase is piss easy

spice spire
#

As a treat some dinar

hollow talon
#

so youre saying...

royal lantern
#

im biased just by HOW bad the rogue ones are

sudden brook
#

Trickster is good, deathstalker is good garf

#

Killing spree is bad

#

Fatebound isn't flashy or interesting enough

royal lantern
#

like, i literally leveld and play a guardian druid rn, and like, thats how it should be more like

lunar is very very very passive with only a minor gameplay change (lunar beam more often)

while claw is more involved with actually shapeshifting midcombat for more dps

coral ibex
#

i dont begrudge other people getting what they want, it just reduces the excitement of killing a boss for me in particular

royal lantern
#

atleast for assa its just so stupid that both trees are "envenom does more dmg"

hollow talon
#

druid hero talents are pretty cool

#

i like my boomie one

sudden brook
#

I mean idk thats what a lot of hero talents are

#

WArrior is "bladestorm deals more damage"

hollow talon
#

im friends with the trees or im dropping moons

sudden brook
#

Paladin is "wake deals more damage"

royal lantern
#

is that you share it with boomkins

#

actually disgusting

static glacier
#

eg divine hammer being as strong as it is because it can trigger hammers

sudden brook
#

Sure but it doesnt do anything

#

Like neither do anything to the rotation

#

U press ur paladin buttons and it equates to "wake deals more damage"

#

at least with paladin ur wake upgrades to hammer after cast which is neat but it doesn't really mean much

static glacier
#

stuff like holding hammer of light for execution is thought

#

but yeah I see what you mean, a lot of hero trees can boil down to this is x amount more damage on your usual buttons

#

paladin trees are heavily tied to wake for sure

sudden brook
#

I really like what deathstalker does to the rotation personally

static glacier
#

I think it's pretty cool too, the slight minmax of when to finish and minimising mark downtime / lining DN envs with aoe

coral ibex
#

yea the 5/7 interaction does require some thought

static glacier
#

give us some measure of control

sudden brook
#

Ya I think its fun

#

But it can be a bit annoying sometimes

torpid sparrow
#

if u dont kill OAB mm , it s gonna be signet and pacemaker from dinar vendor what u guys think?

sudden brook
#

I wish fatebound was just, cooler though

#

Yer

static glacier
#

stuff like making sure I chill on 1 dsm stack before he finger guns the add on mug is an example

lean plover
#

I like ds for assa, hate it with passion for sub

static glacier
#

ds on sub is funamentally cringe

royal lantern
sudden brook
#

Yeah a bit shit for sub

royal lantern
#

but they dont

#

which is the more cringe part tbh

static glacier
#

lacking a flurry type effect on evisc makes dn feel atrocious in aoe

#

if it applied to BP it would be perhaps too strong

lean plover
#

then again ds competes with fatebound, unsure how much of "i like ds for assa" is actualy being glad its better than coins

static glacier
#

hard to say

sudden brook
#

I just like DS

#

I think the play pattern that DS forces is fun and interesting

lean plover
#

i like shiv+dn+lingering

#

Big dmg

sour elm
#

playing for those big envenoms feels great

sudden brook
#

The lingering shit is fun

#

THe general minmaxing around being at 1 dsm is interesting

#

I think its fun at the end of packs when you get 3-4 dn in a row

static glacier
#

issue is dance is a lot more constraining than sin's env amplifiers

sudden brook
#

I think its good for sin

static glacier
#

additionally I still think it would be less cringe if dsm stacks were a buff

#

instead of a debuff

#

it's deffo less of a pain point now we can spec into vv

sudden brook
#

but then how would singular focus work

mental atlas
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
static glacier
sudden brook
#

Eh

static glacier
#

not thought through it much, could be some abuse cases

sudden brook
#

I dont think itd work as cleanly

lean plover
#

if it had to swap every time u tab

#

it would bug

#

100%

static glacier
#

they could make singular focus a damage buff to your next dn envenom perhaps

sudden brook
#

I think it's fine as is, I just hope that MA is never good again PEPW

static glacier
sudden brook
static glacier
#

still not using it on mug just to be able to mark goons on demand if im in a cage

sudden brook
#

but this isn't a ST raid

royal lantern
#

WEIRDO OPINION INCOMMING

sudden brook
royal lantern
#

i like when MA is better, cus using vanish for dmg just feels like a thing rogue should do

sudden brook
manic coral
#

since when are people playing tiny toxic blade instead of arterial precision

coral ibex
#

probably since it sims better for them

manic coral
#

ye but like whats the reasoning i dont understand xd

wise whale
#

Well

manic coral
#

like its

wise whale
#

What other targets are you shivving on sprocketmonger

coral ibex
#

arterial is a cleave talent

#

and ttb isn't

sudden brook

AA gives you bleed damage as well

#

st2 = ttb

1.2% worse than AA

do you have 2 shiv charges

#

I'm clearly missing something when it comes to playing assasination. Are there stat break points or something?

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.

The spec doesn't have stat breakpoints

Even with the same ilvl with both Outlaw an Assasination sets I'm doing 20% more damage single target with outlaw

static glacier
#

feelswhisp man

#

has to update dinar guide to include pacemaker

sudden brook
#

I mean it might be a general gear thing more than stats

#

And comfort, idk

#

Ilvl isn't gear

#

Mainhand weapon, trinkets, etc, matter a lot

scarlet orbit

Outlaw also just does way more singletarget then assa

#

they're removing crest cap on 14th i think

coral ibex
#

so are they trying to communicate that they think timing all 12's is equivalent difficulty to mythic raiding?

#

or do you think they just picked that breakpoint since it already exists

the latter

got mine in the vault

#

Does anyone here use the Junkmaestro's magnet trinket? It sims (only 0.2%) better with signet+magnet than signet+pacemaker. I know we try to avoid 2 on-use trinkets but its CD is only 20s which is why i'm asking where people typically use it in their rotation

#

for raid^

coral ibex
#

yea i use it

#

press it during lingering darkness

#

that's it

little tulip
#

we're 3/4 so far, no eyes of kezan tho also thanks

viscid spear
tawdry root
coral ibex
#

you should wait until the end of the buff because it does more damage with more stacks

tawdry root
#

and i imagine when im in deathmark/KB windows?

coral ibex
#

no

#

you only press it during lingering darkness

#

after deathmark finishes

tawdry root
#

ok cool thats not bad at all then
