It is 338k less dmg yes

indigo sphinx
#

Why take the trade offer of less dam for more effort

vivid mulch
#

Yeah imma just go bleed, but another question

#

DO i have to stay above 150 energy in st?

#

For it to be worth it

burnt juniper
#

bleed hasn't been doing me too bad in 16s, but bleed def doesn't feel like it work in places like workshop or theater

#

overall still ends up being decent, but you go mega slow in ST portions

indigo sphinx
burnt juniper
#

you do make up for it by decimating aoe portions of the dungeon

#

but the really hard pain points of those 2 places are more ST oriented

indigo sphinx
vivid mulch
#

I mean yeah if you have boomkin or arcane they'll do the St work for you xd

burnt juniper
#

my team is me as bleed, ret and enhance

vivid mulch
#

And you blast AOE without using cd's

brazen sluice
#

about signet why not HoC ?

vivid mulch
#

Whereas they have to

burnt juniper
#

so enhance naturally has really good ST

#

and ret isn't bad either

vivid mulch
#

Isn't enahance ST a bit bad atm?

burnt juniper
#

i might be thinking of his dmg with PI and stuff

#

yeah sometimes it's mid

winged sun
burnt juniper
#

i'm gonna start using the new hybrid build tomorrow and see what happens

winged sun
#

@balmy condor do u need to like pop house of cards exactly on deathmark otherwise it may result in a dps loss since its lower duration?

vivid mulch
#

So you prefer Hybrid over bleed in TOP and Work?

winged sun
#

or does that not matter?

burnt juniper
#

but i can already see hybrid being much better in those 2 places in particular yeah

vivid mulch
#

But not with FI perhaps

burnt juniper
#

sorry i'm a sub main, wtf is FI

vivid mulch
#

KEKW

#

Forced induction

burnt juniper
#

kill me

#

HAHA ok gotcha

#

yeah with that

indigo sphinx
burnt juniper
#

the more ST oriented build

indigo sphinx
#

It doesn't really matter

#

Just pick for fun

burnt juniper
#

we don't have an acronym for that in the sub channel because you never swap off that talent haha

#

so nobody ever talks about it

analog field
#

i don't think in 12's dropping bleed makes any sense

vivid mulch
#

Ah fair lmfao

analog field
#

no matter what dungeon

burnt juniper
#

sub literally has 1 talent bulid

#

everywhere

#

you swap out 1 talent for M+

#

done

vivid mulch
#

Isn't this doodoo xd

clever sparrow
#

waiting for about 3 hours to get inv for a brew / psf

#

is it usual? or they hate me?

vivid mulch
#

Wth?

clever sparrow
#

its like assa is a bad class in these 2

vivid mulch
#

I dont really have trouble with that atm

#

Luckily

Yep going for it rn

clever sparrow
#

hopefully my friend carried me for a 13 top

#

i dont have to do it

burnt juniper
#
  1. your priory and cinderbrew are 2 levels lower than your push key level
#
  1. people still try to meta chase at those key levels
clever sparrow
burnt juniper
clever sparrow
#

yup

burnt juniper
#

sorry i thought 13

clever sparrow
#

they arent inviting me for 12

#

its so weird

burnt juniper
#

rogue is hard to put into comps

#

no bres

#

no lust

#

no utility

vivid mulch
#

But shroud B)

clever sparrow
#

meta chaser

lean plover
#

mage has shroud

clever sparrow
clever sparrow
vivid mulch
#

not aoe shroud

lean plover
#

+arcane intellect

clever sparrow
burnt juniper
#

don't need shroud when priest has soothe ๐Ÿ˜‰

clever sparrow
#

instead of mass shield ๐Ÿ˜„

lean plover
burnt juniper
#

also a lot of skips right now is done with tanks using meld

lean plover
#

yep

#

cant disenrage anymore

burnt juniper
#

plus unholy does absurd overall

lean plover
#

its 30 sec cd xddddd

burnt juniper
#

so they're right to want one

clever sparrow
#

my spotify is making me crazy it reduce volume to 1% in dungeon

burnt juniper
#

i have been able to keep up with unholy in some keys though

#

using bleed

cyan trellis
#

If I'm starting 16s with physical comp (druid, warrior, monk, hunter, rogue) will playing bleed build be significantly better than hybrid? Tried simming but having a hard time

clever sparrow
#

HOPEFULLY!

burnt juniper
#

it's getting a nerf yeah

dapper cradle
#

Yuge?

burnt juniper
#

curious how big an impact it will have

lean plover
#

3%

burnt juniper
#

i heard it depends on rng

clever sparrow
burnt juniper
#

if you're getting really good blood beast procs the nerf is bigger

clever sparrow
#

all of your dmg

#

is the rng thing

#

it spawns

dapper cradle
#

Ret buffs are kinda crazy

clever sparrow
#

it booms

#

youre on 16mil per sec

#

from 2 / 3 mil*

burnt juniper
#

his buffs are my buffs

dapper cradle
burnt juniper
#

vdh, ret, enhance, rogue

#

we don't have a healer right now

dapper cradle

Based

#

Chad no caster comp

#

I kneel

burnt juniper
#

2 of the people are my guildies

#

it's kinda rough because we tried doing 5 melee comp with like mistweaver

#

no bueno

#

it's bad

#

really bad in some places

#

REALLY bad

clever sparrow
#

love enhance rotation tbh

burnt juniper
clever sparrow
#

piano ๐Ÿ˜„

burnt juniper
#

as a rogue you need a pocket shammy

#

more than any other class

clever sparrow
#

but why

#

does assa even need it?

quartz cloak
# burnt juniper rogue is hard to put into comps

This is unfortunately so true.. I got so sick of pugging on my rogue, I get way easier invites on my devastation because of BL alone. And some other group utility that rogue doesnโ€™t really have. At least for pugging itโ€™s really annoying but understandable that every group with 30+ dps applicants picks magic dmg + utility + range

clever sparrow
#

i thought only outlaw needs a pocket shammy

burnt juniper
#

it's pretty big for sin too

#

for sub it's enormous

#

like roughly 10%

#

maybe even more

clever sparrow
#

WTF

burnt juniper
#

sub is bascially unplayable without skyfury

clever sparrow
#

we dont even have anything good for our auto attacks

#

same for sub

lean plover
clever sparrow
#

atleast outlaw gain Energy

lean plover
#

assa applies more poisons too

burnt juniper
#

sub's entire combo point and energy system revolves around auto attacks

#

trust it's massive

burnt juniper
#

you can actually feel the difference

#

sin you don't feel it

clever sparrow
#

it kinda look op then

tough hare
#

Sub without skyfury feels like you forgot to take a few key talents

clever sparrow
#

ive forced my shaman friend

#

to switch DRUID!

tough hare
#

Had me check mid key once

clever sparrow
#

i've been playing outlaw

#

and i was greedy for versa

#

MY MASTERY IS WINNING!

#

road to 105

burnt juniper
#

oh ok haha

clever sparrow
#

lmao

lean plover

clever sparrow
#

100% mastery outlaw

#

lean plover
#

unplayable

clever sparrow
#

outlaw

#

ruined my neck for assa

burnt juniper
#

make outlaw mastery great again

clever sparrow
#

im going to play this mop classic

#

for sub mastery

#

its fun af

#

cant wait to ruin pepole day by auto attack

burnt juniper
#

back when outlaw was combat it's mastery was really good

#

i remember stacking mastery for pvp

clever sparrow
burnt juniper
#

i think so yeah

clever sparrow
#

its still main gauche tho

#

they just nerfed it

burnt juniper
#

but it worked differently

clever sparrow
#

like hot hands on enhance shaman

warm vortex
#

Don't wanna be a salty guy

#

but how fucking stupid do you need to b

#

to be in a 14

#

And not know what "Bl" means

burnt juniper
#

you could 100-0 someone in pvp in a kidney shot with red buff and killing spree

warm vortex
#

as a shaman

burnt juniper
#

because your mastery procced like crazy

lavish wing
clever sparrow
#

๐Ÿ˜„

warm vortex
#

Ok?

clever sparrow
warm vortex
#

But people call it lust either way

clever sparrow
#

^^

warm vortex
#

Yes i know

#

But it's commonly refered to as bloodlust in my experiance

lavish wing
#

Hero on pull

warm vortex
#

And his response was just
"Sorry was distracted"

warm vortex
#

despite the tank saying it multiple times

#

during the pull

burnt juniper
clever sparrow
burnt juniper
#

but yeah combat mastery was once pretty good

clever sparrow
#

mop / cata / wod

lavish wing
#

Maybe forgot he's on bl alt

warm vortex
#

He already did it that dungeon

#

So he knows he has it

clever sparrow
#

best poison ever invented

lavish wing
#

Happened to be on dk, like oh shit im the cr guy ๐Ÿคฃ

burnt juniper
#

oh i think i remember, when you had more mastery the % chance to proc was higher

#

per attack

#

on top of doing more dmg

clever sparrow
#

i remember that

#

lol

burnt juniper
#

so when you went into killing spree you attacked really, really fast and main gauche procced nonstop

warm vortex
#

If someone says "CR"

#

You will probably be remembered

#

Also

lavish wing
#

I dont read chat

warm vortex
#

He was doing a pull that's a very obv BL pull

#

Text bubbles appear above your character when you speak

#

Was this pull

you just right click pepole

#

i miss legion

#

i kinda scared about legion classic

#

it will literaly destroy retail

warm vortex
#

And he spoke english

#

and knows what bloodlust is

clever sparrow
#

WHO TF play retail when we have legion classic

warm vortex
#

Because we told him earlier about it

tough hare
#

I just ping the dude's head now until they understand

legion dungeons were shit i agree

if ur doing a 14 and u dont lust after 5 reminders in chat on an obvious lust pull idk

#

stop playing poker on the other screen or

warm vortex
#

Yea haha

#

Pugland

verbal stirrup
#

people seriously acting like a shaman in a 14 doesnt know what lust is because they are alliance

#

i play on an alliance only server for like 10 years now and ive never heard anyone refer to it as heroism ever

wintry trout
#

i heard it refered by hero , lust mostly

clever sparrow
#

they were horde inside

warm vortex

warm vortex
#

TRUE

#

Bro imagine that

#

Bl shows up in the rota manager

#

the equivilant of brann saying

#

"I'm going all out!"

#

On some random trash mobs

verbal stirrup
#

hope the shaman rotation manager doesnt bloodlust when my assa rotation manager is reapplying my poisons

lavish wing
#

i wonder how that one button shit is gonna work for healers

#

is it also switching targets

lost wolf
#

it just automatically heals the pally in the group

wintry trout
#

i dont think it will , might be dps tank thing only

mint mica
#

In a big M+ pull, is there a certain ballpark number of Ruptures you aim to keep up after the ones from your Indiscriminate Carnage window fall off?

Omg really

#

I've been telling people I need to lose every time

red schooner
#

I mean i normally just tell people to kill me, cos it takes too long to get rolling and kill the other person

#

No mark, no bleeds up, as well as not great ST damage anyhow cos sin rogue in m+

At least it's not a 645 Eye

vivid mulch
#

Actually lemme sim Eye for raid

viscid spear
#

I have Heroic HoC and a 658 Amp

vivid mulch
#

still better than eye and HoC in 5 min ST

#

I guess the fight has to take 6 - 7 mins?

west smelt
#

Fellas I thought sin didn't really care too much about stats, why is it simming 100-200k lower than my sub? Is signet/HoC really that important? (I'm using double passive ATM since it's Sims higher than using the PvP trink I use on sub)

red schooner
runic hinge
#

dont use the sims to compares specs just gear

west smelt
#

Is it because sin has meaningful execute or something?

#

That's good to know anyway

spice spire
#

No itโ€™s because a lot of classes add optimizations that are unrealistic to gains.
They just see โ€œx apl does more so we send itโ€

west smelt
#

I did notice I am doing 200k ISH more in real fights (even though I'm getting 50th %iles compared to the 85-90s I was getting on sub)

spice spire
#

Itโ€™s akin to a 0.2% gain if you rupture at 12 seconds instead of pandemic but a 0.1% loss if 11

#

(This is an example and is not real)

stable cove
#

wowhead guide says to fok on 2 target, but with blindside talentedwouldnt it be 3?

runic hinge
#

!fok

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

dude whats wrong with this BREW + PSF

#

i still havent got any key

viscid spear

#

this is prob dumb question but if u have 3 stacks of mark on a target and darkest night up im guessing ur suppose to avoid spending full cp to consume the existing stacks first?

yes

in which tool tip does it describe that

it doesnt

why shouldn't you though ?

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • 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

#

So I don't think the sub apl has too many degenerate optimizations baked in

spice spire
#

Oh wait

#

Youโ€™re comparing sub and sin

#

Itโ€™s the same philosophy I thought you were going different classes dog

rotund oak
#

not much to do,exhale everything,wait till next time

west smelt
#

Meaningful execute makes sense to me for why sin would under-sim

spice spire

I mean it sims with execute

west smelt
#

Oh

spice spire
red schooner

#

It just doesn't account for the absolute goats playing sin EZ

red schooner
west smelt
#

I'm just confused because I'm playing worse on sin (much lower percentiles) while doing more damage yet simming lower on sin compared to sub

spice spire
#

Wait oh I could have avoided this conversation easily

#

Assassination in raid is now piss easy. Therefore many can do the basics to do good damage, thereโ€™s not a ton of sequencing, nothing crazy.

#

Itโ€™s just burst windows

#

Maintain bleeds

#

And envenom

#

No vanish, no bitches, etc

#

in ST for bleed build m+, am i supposed to be running out of energy on bosses? Or should i be maintaining 50% energy and just do a "slow" rotation to maintain it

#

I kind of understand the rotation, but why am i just always out of energy

viscid spear
#

Contemplating just sending the Pacemaker to my Druid

sudden brook
analog field
#

yeah you will be out of energy, the goal is to put up your bleeds and refresh them without losing uptime. When you have to refresh bleeds or cast shiv/dm you spam your buttons , when you don't instead of spamming a filler envenom you can auto attack to go above 50%

sudden brook
#

The spec doesn't have energy in st, it's by design

cinder hazel
#

so in ST, im basically energy starved with bleed stacks up and then auto attack back to 50%

#

and do it all over again

sudden brook
#

Well more that you want to hover above 150

On cd (while not in shiv)

sudden brook
#

What

spice spire
#

So you have two charges

#

You donโ€™t double shiv

plucky canopy
#

Yes you do as far as I know

analog field
#

yeah you spam when shiv is on the target, and then go afk after it ends

plucky canopy
#

You mean Spam evenom?

sudden brook
#

Like normally for bleed build u stay above 150, but if you are in shiv, do you care about staying above 150

spice spire
#

Oh no

sudden brook
#

Or do u spam

spice spire
#

You spam

sudden brook
#

That's what I thought

spice spire
#

Youโ€™re only pooling like 20% of the time to stay above

#

When no shiv and no energy or darkest night

#

No point in not pooling

i'm declining you from this conversation

clever sparrow
#

i will ask everysingle girl in street from now

#

who cares

somber sparrow
#

but really, the solution is rogues should have a lust ability. Perhaps some sort of crystalized powder that energizes everyone.

clever sparrow
#

I WILL BE THE REJECTION IT SELF!

foggy mirage
#

lust shouldn't be class specific just give everyone lust

#

EZ

might get confused with blinding powder

it shouldn't be

clever sparrow
#

WHO GOT THE MONEYYYYY

somber sparrow
#

Do you think rogues would get accepted more if we inherently had a lust?

clever sparrow
#

the problem isnt lust tbh

foggy mirage
#

it would remove searching for a specific class bcs of lust

clever sparrow
#

rogues wont get accepted even tho if we had a lust

#

we need a buff

#

look at monk and DH

foggy mirage
#

just promotes more diversity

clever sparrow
#

they dont have lust / raid buff

#

but they do something for raid

#

DH 5% magic dmg debuff

#

or monk physical buff

#

maybe with something like that

#

tbh they should delete the shaman buff

#

that gives you chance to attack another time

#

its not really a shaman buff tho

#

(atleast for ele and resto)

#

rogue could have it

#

GOOD ENDING

im seing mostly 14+ hybrid build mostly on raiderio.

would love to see what are peoples opinion on higher keys either bleed or hybrid.

analog field
#

generally until like 16 bleed is the choice in here

brazen sluice
winged sun
#

credits to tobfon for helping me out, Zeross TC arc inc??

analog field
#

for me top14 was really good with bleed

winged sun
#

will keep you guys updated

analog field
#

but surely top feels like a dungeon that you cxan go hybrid a bit earlier

#

zeross what is your opinion for TOP 15?

topaz hare
#

DFC was miserable for me yesterday

#

i got it but sheesh

analog field
#

in 14?

topaz hare
#

15

#

first pack pulls sure, after that meh

analog field
#

in 14 i found a pug and we almost +++ it

#

first obss is ok for bleed also

#

I recently returned to playing Assa, what stat do I use now? Can you help me? Thank you very much.

analog field
#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • 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

Is there m+ build that uses Iron Wire ?

Can someone tell me, what is the reason why people prefer to play hybrid instead of bleeds in high keys?

topaz hare
#

so what i want to know so i wont be bothering people here, the higher it goes (key wise), would that be more ST dependent or not. or we always but always absolutely always do dungeon slice. ? if not when do we use patchwerk if ever when doing sims. I want to know what the logic is behind people in here, so i can get a clear path

hollow river

15+

hollow river
#

In 15s bleed is still fine afaik

#

Once you get to like 17+ is when the hybrid type builds get popular

topaz hare
#

thanks trickz

errant hawk
#

cuz bleeds sims better

hollow river
#

Itโ€™s just ST

royal lantern
topaz hare
#

I havethis feeling that is just ST

royal lantern
#

just nerf everything

#

nerf mount cast time

weary spear
#

Bleed ST is great

topaz hare
#

since high keys bosses be having too much health, you want that extra ST on bosses

#

i would assume, dont take my word for it

weary spear
#

As long as you get a DM at beginning of fight and DM in execute can use it until whatever key you want

candid jasper
#

I was actually about to ask when to go hybrid over bleed, interesting topic!

#

I was under the impression bleed was doing great ST too actually

hollow river
errant hawk
hollow river
#

Something can sim better but that isnโ€™t taking into account the specific route or your comp

weary spear
#

Personally in 16s bleed does more overall and more ST. Especially if you get a lust in execute like on swampface or last boss rookery

radiant sorrel
#

This is the Hubrind build and the one WITHOUT Kings bane is the bleed one yes ?

polar rampart
#

yes bleed is no kb

analog field
#

yeah but the hybrid that zeros play is better st , although it loses subterfuge, it pumps on bosses if that's what's needed in the group

polar rampart
#

it does pretty good aoe with big spatters too

topaz hare
#

how does that talent tree look like?

shy axle
#

you take the middle path like raid build and left like the pic above

#

gar only in st

#

thats what i read 2 days ago

hollow river
#

you can garrote your main target in aoe iirc

#

but i haven't done much looking into the build so not 100% sure

runic hinge
#

he said he garrotes if you need energy from it but if the pack has enough ruptures for him to be full he doesnt spread

#

but he said he does spread with ic

woeful lantern

Barnacles

errant hawk
#

the hybrid build is still 2 shiv ? or only one?

woeful lantern
#

Where can I find the hybrid build vs bleed build and when is each appropriate?

hollow river
#

most people will never need to fuck with the hybrid build

woeful lantern
#

Oh score

hollow river
woeful lantern
hollow river
#

some 17s, 18s

woeful lantern
#

I'm pretty sure I'm running the hybrid build rn ๐Ÿ’€

#

I've been playing on my rogue about a week

hollow river
#

the bleed build should be on wowhead

woeful lantern
#

So i have no idea what I'm doing honestly

#

And the bleed build performs better below 17?

hollow river
#

ye

I'm gonna show the cooked af build I'm running r

-30%

viscid spear

woeful lantern
#

I dont even remember where i got this

balmy condor
#

Thatโ€™s standard hybrid yeh

#

Wowhead has that

woeful lantern
#

OKay so I'll see a damage up if i go bleed build since im doing 12-14s?

balmy condor
#

Probably yes

#

Depends how successfully youโ€™re playing hybrid I guess

#

Bleed is easier and less dependent on your CDs

#

So not only is it generally โ€œbetterโ€ itโ€™s also just less work

#

So for most itโ€™s just an obvious winner

desert crest
#

Yeah hybrid is only better if the pulls last an enternity right?

balmy condor
#

Not really

tender cedar
#

Hybrid is better for bosses that last forever is I think the value

balmy condor
#

It just depends how much youโ€™re able to leverage kingsbane tbh

desert crest
#

Atleast last i checked hybrid simed slightly better in like 5 min aoe

#

But i guess bleed also might scale better with bigger pulls so what ends up being better in practice is kinda up in the air

tender cedar
#

5 minute aoe is just not realistic in any m+ scenario that Iโ€™m aware of, thatโ€™s why we sim dslice to get a hybrid of big pulls and a boss

shy axle
#

It's equal-better in single target and aoe, equal-better prio, worse in low target cleave compared to hybrid. Yes the single target still sucks, that's just how the spec works

#

regarding bleed/hybrid from the pins

#

bleed has some nice talents for st (but not only) like blindside and zoldyk

desert crest
#

Yeah I know but it still should show the general trend of hybrid being better if pulls are long enough

#

Like MA and subterfuge sim really really good in dslice because of short pulls and restealths

tender cedar
#

They sim well because they are good talents for the situations you will actually encounter in m+

desert crest
#

But in a high enough key u get less and less value so u need to look at different pull lengths

balmy condor
desert crest
#

ohh really did not know that

#

i guess it kinda makes sense with all the reapplying bleeds and stuff

#

the rule set would have to be quite a bit more complex

balmy condor
#

Optimizations for 5min aoe directly clash with optimizations for dungeonslice

#

Like polar opposites in many cases

strange tundra
#

do we switch from bleed at +15 or nah

#

damage seems fine

balmy condor
#

And I just couldnโ€™t be fucked to make sure itโ€™s playing properly when some bozo sims 7t 5min like a dumbass

#

Doesnโ€™t make any logical sense for how the game is played

tender cedar
#

Yea itโ€™s just pointless to know whatโ€™s best in a situation you will literally never run into

desert crest
#

No true but like 2 min or 1.5 min 8t might make sense

#

But might be alot of work for not much reward

balmy condor
#

I meanโ€ฆ not really though

#

Thatโ€™s still a pretty insane situation

pastel roost
#

Where do you stay on 7+ target for 2 whole minute wtf ?

tender cedar
#

Exactly lol

desert crest
#

Yeah dosn't really happen no

balmy condor
#

Like I can MAYBE understand 30-45s but if weโ€™re doing that then you can also just sim dungeonslice

strange tundra
pastel roost
#

Like i would rather 8 target 1 min to simulate a big pull i guess

strange tundra
#

more tha 7+ for 2 minutes

pastel roost
#

7 continuous targer for 2 minute without ever going down ?

desert crest
#

but the point was not really the specfic fight length more so the general concept of pull lengths not all being what we see in dslice

strange python
pastel roost
#

even if you add after , the sim is already fucked

strange python
#

But Yknow

strange tundra
strange python
#

People always sim weird shit

#

And come up with some gain

#

That doesnโ€™t exist in reality

balmy condor
#

Iโ€™m working on getting support back for sustained aoe at some point down the line but itโ€™s gonna require a really big overhaul to the entire APL, which also should help improve more advanced things like dungeonroutes and boss vuln phases/immunities

#

Itโ€™s justโ€ฆ a lot of fucking work

desert crest
#

Yeah can imagine it is a nice feature to have tho

pastel roost
desert crest
#

How long are the pulls in dslice even?

strange comet
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
royal lantern
#

dslice is iirc ~5min of combat with different target counts and a ST boss fight

strange tundra
#

in the room

pastel roost
# strange tundra after 1st boss u can do that too

But you're not, man i don't think you understand, in that situation you start with many , quickly go to 3-6 mob and maybe relink ? but it's not continuous 7 mob that don't die for 2 whole minute. the whole point of the argument is the relevance of going 8 target 2 min sim. i don't see a situation in M+ where that happen

balmy condor
#

Itโ€™s just none of this patch was imaginable in Dragonflight tbh, I rewrote the entire APL from scratch for the amirdrassil rework but I couldnโ€™t have foreseen the fact that we have like 25 m+ builds and people going back to comparing them on very specific fight styles, like I had one guy simming 4t 3min to compare theatre of pain, which as misguided as it is, properly shouldnโ€™t explode, or people simming 5t to test on dummies and shit

#

Like that just simply wasnโ€™t on my radar because that wasnโ€™t the direction we were going

#

And if sims are going to get more intelligent, not just about what buttons theyโ€™re pressing, but also what theyโ€™re fighting

#

Thatโ€™s gonna need another full rewrite tbh

pastel roost
strange tundra
pastel roost
balmy condor
#

Do the same sim in dungeonslice

#

And itโ€™s literally -4%

#

Not 0.4, a full 4%

desert crest
#

The apl can use remaining fight duration tho right?

pastel roost
#

Honestly all of that goes right above my head, I'm just not good with math and just can't fathom haw y'all create that kind of tool for us to use. So i'm just grateful but seeing from the outside i'm already wincing, so i can't imagine for the guys doing it

balmy condor
fringe spear
balmy condor
#

Itโ€™s less about the sim being able to take fight duration and mob duration into account

#

Cause it can, and it does

#

Itโ€™s more that like, when you have things living for that long the optimizations are just entirely different

#

Itโ€™s like an entirely different rotation to balance if you have to do sustained aoe without vanish/stealths

fringe spear
#

theres also just the factor of, 'is this really the optimization, or does it result in a gain on this sim for a different reason?' like something showing as a gain because it just so happens to push your cooldowns into a bigger aoe pack

desert crest
#

Yeah okay so it is more so the number of combinations of fight duration and mob count?

#

That might all need a different apl

balmy condor
#

Multiply by all the talent combos

#

But yes

desert crest
#

Yeah it is massive

balmy condor
#

And like optimizing all of it for single target isnโ€™t bad, optimizing all of it for sustained aoe isnโ€™t bad, optimizing it for dungeonslice isnโ€™t bad

#

On their own itโ€™s all fine

#

But right now the apl is one generalized list for all situations

#

And that just doesnโ€™t work anymore for whatโ€™s being demanded of it

#

So I need to split it up into sub lists and only trigger X list in dungeonslice for example

desert crest
#

Yeah and then bliz posts a rework or something lul

topaz hare
#

different APL depending on the situation. sheesh

runic hinge
#

I doubt this spec sees much of a rework

desert crest
#

Yeah they will wait until he has finished work on spliting the apl up

balmy condor
#

Well the thing is that splitting it up like that sounds like more effort to maintain

#

But itโ€™s actually easier at the same time if you think about it

#

Like if they buff crimson tempest again or nerf caustic or whatever

#

I donโ€™t need to both with any single target logic

#

I can focus entirely on aoe lines, and optimize just for those situations that theyโ€™re getting called in

coral ibex
#

hmmmm

balmy condor
#

So tweaking each line becomes much quicker

desert crest
#

Yeah true I guess the workload is mostly migrating it over

balmy condor
#

Versus right now if something changes, a change to one or two lines can ripple into everything

#

So I have to do like extensive cross-testing

#

Change one line and then double check that it didnโ€™t break on any of the 14 profiles I have saved off

#

In no less than 9 or 10 fight styles

viscid spear
balmy condor
#

And if it does then itโ€™s back to the drawing board

vital haven
#

you werent kidding

desert crest
#

Ohh well thanks for the info about sustained aoe not being supported

viscid spear
#

Mage sent me to Ancient Dal

vital haven
#

im on the ptr and hekili thingy is just telling me to spam poison knife

viscid spear

balmy condor
#

Minor spelling mistake xddBusiness

vital haven
#

gotcha

#

its not even telling to use a finisher

#

just span poison knife lol

strange tundra
balmy condor
#

Thatโ€™s also not what sustained aoe sims model

analog field
#

The same 7 targets for 2 minutes is totally unrealistic

balmy condor
#

Chain pulls are an entirely different problem with its own set of logic that needs to be added

strange tundra
#

same 7 target is unrealistic but if u have 2 vanish and there are chain pulls isnt it the same as 7 targets constantly?

balmy condor
#

No

desert crest
#

The dots are on targets

balmy condor
#

Thereโ€™s nothing dying in sustained aoe sims

desert crest
#

so u need to redo bleeds and shi when chaining

balmy condor
#

They donโ€™t die staggered

viscid spear
balmy condor
#

There are no new mobs

strange tundra
#

ye i see what u mean, it would sim more damage anyway with chain pulls than same 7 targets for 2 minutes
because before the first 7 targets die u have bleeds on the new 7 targets with vaniosh and chain pull

balmy condor
pastel roost
balmy condor
#

I havenโ€™t looked at that, Iโ€™d think based on the logic I have memorized that it would just spam bleeds for the most part

balmy condor
#

So I donโ€™t think it would be all that good

balmy condor
strange tundra

i think highest ive done in big pull is like 20-25m
