was like 1.2% or something
but like
ty
I gained ilvl on you tho when swapping to jastor cause I have myth track shoulders
Yeah idk
yeah
i need to get that shit
got raid in like
18h

thats why I sim higher
Only true chads are the green orcs not the poop colored ones
also theres a special damage buff u get as alliance
(heroes of the story and not cringe)
what
u heard me
horde is evil faction so they do less damage

me when i see that 90/100 top guilds are horde 
well
now it doesnt really matter anymore since its interchangable ig
yeah from what I've heard cause I didnt play thats a remenant of kiljaden
cause u had to be goblin or smthin
i mean, that comes form the time where racials where a absolute shitshow
MoP trolls
"kill jaDEEEEN"
idk was still like this before the change this expansion
kinda
if you just look at wowprog some tiers back
yes, cus of what i said 
yeah I mean if it didnt matter post-legion then just dont swap
and now it super doesnt matter
was balanced->racials where a shitshow and favored horde by a big ammount->most serious guilds went horde for the adventage->now they are more balanced and "X faction guild" doesnt really exist anymore
like, troll during throne of thunder was just so stupid lmao
that was the first big mass "migration" to horde
Wasnt it like 5% damage to beasts?
yep
And then beast bosses
and the raid had half the bosses being beasts
so troll was basically just 5% more dmg on most fights by default
Also gnome for ansurek
And dwarf whenever there is some stuff going on
Well atleast it will never be on a wow classic scale where u can only play human 
everyone playing dwarf in m+ last season

uwucutegirl lookin ass
If I wanna be a goofy lookin ugly ahh dude I can just log out and walk around in real life
AMEN
then do that
i kinda hate dwarf cus it became the "wannabe pro gamer that is just slightly above average" race
like, the guys that do +13 keys and talk about specs and race like its the most imortant thing in the game, while also missing every 2nd kick and sit on their cds for 3min
i like the race that looks ok
i did go orc just because of the racial tho
but that was in shadowlands
If big aoe pulls, is it worth it to dot more than 5 targets?
damn man that blows u ok
more time to play wow, hell yeah
not anymore
Should you pool energy in raid when KB is coming up?
For like 5 seconds maybe
Bleed build yes can be, hybrid/zeross cook, I wouldn’t
the general
is the m+ bleed spec on archon.gg low for ST dps? I feel like Im always first on big aoe packs, and then last on ST boss dps
If you have no adds to make your ct bigger
yes
Though who tf used archon
archon spec is basically what the guides have, innit
She never blew that was part of the problem
aggregate of what is popular yeah
You can do alright st as bleed but its nothing compared to “good” st specs
Usually the good st specs have noticeably worse aoe so
You win on overall usually why does it matter
You can swap to more st talents if you want, usually resulting in lower aoe

so when i dry shiv and hit solo kb window I want to be able to see kb duration in my wa so I can shiv at last leg of kb rather than start but devlins wa doesn't show kb, anyone know how to edit it?
I want like when kb is on target show me elapsed on it
what if i want it all
play udk 
gross
!snapshot
Explanation of snapshotting
Bleeds update their tick rate dynamically, which means that if you get a haste proc (which increases our tick rate) from somewhere during the encounter (ie. Power Infusion), the bleeds would automatically tick faster, but the second your haste goes back to normal, the tick rate goes back down as well.
Snapshotting refers to getting that haste proc, reapplying bleeds at the faster tick rate, but instead of the bleeds going back to a slower tick rate when your haste drops, they would continue ticking at a faster rate until they expire or are reapplied.
heya ! i was messing around with my sims and i see that it consistantly suggest that I get my crit rating up to 40% and I find that somewhat high ? is it as high for you guys too ? thanks for the insight !
one of us has to create a thread
u might be able to create one idr
how is the sim telling you to get 40% crit
maybe that's just your highest simming set
Think it’s only greens in here
its probably just your highest simming set
It’s telling you it desperately wants mastery looks like
It’s not hybrid it’s cleave
whatever the name is
No need to think too much about stats really. Just sim your pieces and dont bother with gems or enchant sims
Theyre almost always within margin anyway
👍 maybe throw a mast/haste version of the ring in if you didn’t already
Is there a Macros section on here anywhere? Trying to find some good ones
Idk what kind of macros your looking for
really just macros that combine cooldowns and stuff
!shiv
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:
/cast Shiv
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
Assassination uses no other macro aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket
the +24861 is the hast/mast
thank you
@half compass that's pretty much it
its fine i did it in dm's
104 variations hidden 
damn, gem sims crazy
And the reason theres sometimes queues on raidbots because it has to filter through millions of gem sims that end up being the exact same 
I happily run multiple 16M combination sims every week 
is it reliable that vers is simming well for me in single target? i'm sitting at 8% vers, 29% crit, 59% mastery, 8% haste
Mike — 5:45 AM
is it reliable that vers is simming well for me in single target? i'm sitting at 8% vers, 29% crit, 59% mastery, 8% haste
yes stats dont matter much
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- 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
Anyone know what slot first trinket is and how to bind to macro for use with Deathmark?
Thank you
you can also throw racial in there
first trinket slot? couldn't be me
depending on what race u play
so to use deathmark, trinket and racial, do i have to press that macro 3 times or 1 time does all 3?
1 time
ok thx guys
I have this, but it only used deathmark and the trinket, not the racial.
/cast Deathmark
/use 13
/cast Arcane Pulse
probably because its on the GCD
thats why i said depending on what race you play
Ohhh ok
what even is that, nightborne racial?
Yeah
are you even meant to cast that

is it on global
it does some dmg
idk no one plays that poop race
might be the first nightborn rogue ive ever heard of
yeah but it doesn't do anything else, just some dmg
i just do because it looks cool haha
hell yeah
you prolly don't cast it if you're trying to minmax properly 
while i disagree with then looking good, playing what you think looks cool will always be based
^agree
also yeah i dont think you actually ever press that button
the usual racial macro is for orcs n shit
not the playable
look like illidan fr
because orc racials are off the GCD
but purple
dang, about to swap rn i have 2 race changes
damn, maybe i gotta go to ulduar
i think the only racial thats on the GCD thats worth pressing is blood elf
because it gives energy
you just reminded me i gotta go do my weekly black temple run on my DH

only time i've seen a WG drop was on my paladin rip
i got the first after 6 weeks and the second 2 weeks later lol
then i realized i couldn't mog them and yeah

never forget what they took from us
would be such an easy win if they brought it back for rogues/warriors
legit
Idk I’m an undead enjoyer no goofy button to press but y’all can stay feared/charmed/slept

As I eat a corpse
magetower glaives are better
an entire .5 patch could just be 'warglaives of azzinoth now moggable by rogues/warriors"
and i'd be content
do the females flip on evis still?
no1 cares about polygons
ya'll bullied me too much
Yes
this is world of warcraft
Eviscerate and envenom yes
hella lit
this would be sick
idk i cant take cata and earlier gear seriously
glaives always looked cooler on rogues anyways
its too low res
i mean some of the old stuff is definitely way too low res for me
but you can get away with a lot of it in normal gameplay
bc who tf is zoomed all the way in
i play in first person


i thought it was fromunda?

lèche mon fromage
Yeah that makes it even better
sparkle cat is best cat skin
second place is the balance of power skin
For the bleed build on single target, maintaining crimson tempest takes prio over trying to maximize envenom uptime right?
yes
How are people feeling on the KB/PB build for higher keys (15+) vs bleed?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
i think you trade lightweight shiv for iron wire if you're not running with good kicks/silences
Where’s sbs?
also under hero talent i think it's corrupt the blood > momentum of despair
i just reread the wowhead section, but it seems like for the bleed build on single target, my goal is to apply the dots and keep my energy above 50%, any excess goes towards muts and envenom but on a low priority, is this about right?
sounds about right
it's kind of weird doing that over trying to maximize envenom uptime
I suppose reading your talents do help, but who has time for that in 2025
Greetings
sweet
which poison talent?
fatal concoction?
The one under deathmark

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but how much would assassination coaching hours cost, willing to pay 30-40 an hour for tips on how to get better as assassination

ask whispyr
idk if anyone else sells coaching

is bleed in 15 rookery okay?
Bleed in everything
!builds
Bleed vs Hybrid vs Cleave/FI builds
Broad rules and Section in Guide:
- If you have to ask, you should play bleed
- If you're not doing +17's or higher (or rookery), you should play bleed
Some general concepts as to why people play different things:
- Ease of play: Bleed build is simply the easiest to play due to subterfuge/no kingsbane/less need for giant prio targets
- Boss damage: The cleave/zeross build is mainly for boss damage. Assa single target in keys is pretty bad, and the bosses would not be possible otherwise
- Specific Dungeons: Rookery as an example is very boss-heavy, especially the last boss, making bleed less ideal.
- Where the damage is: Bleed spreads out its damage and does great overall due to sudden demise and powerful 3-8 target damage. Hybrid is competitve but doesn't pull ahead until bigger AoE. Cleave is for single target damage and insanely large aoe because of how much caustic and crimson tempest carry aoe damage.

Is ct wa updated yet?
what ct wa
bleed on last of rookery is so ass
last boss of rookery is just a slog no matter what
Do u spend your ambush procs from blindside, even in big aoe pulls?
as a bleed build
I mean yes, but probably not the way you're thinking it is by the sounds of it
cause caustic is 10 seconds and blindside's buff is also 10 seconds
so if you mut/ambush and get a proc, that's gonna be the proc that refreshes caustic automatically
just because that's how that works
wahtever ur sims say but normally heroic jastor+myth track ring
i think in alot of cases the crafted 681 ring plus jastor is ideal
unless ofc u can get myth jastor,which is even better
unless u have better rings
yeah,should sim
Is heroic eye of kebab sim bait over heroic or even myth pacemaker?
thinking of getting jastor with tokens mythic track
but i can sim item i dont have or is it still bugged
If you sim for 5 minutes and then you kill a boss in 3 minutes it probably isn’t stacked.
Usually only good on the last few bosses
Yeah I get that, I mean I’m doing higher ish keys so I usually make it to 20 at least
Also I’m debating getting pyrotechnic needle-dropper myth with the dinars but it’s like, if it drops I get it guaranteed since I’m the only rogue in my raid… so it’s like should I just wait for it to drop and get hero jastor
Or get the needle now
is it worth doing horrific visions
only thing is the head enchant?
(for dps boost)
!tea
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:
/cast Shiv
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
Assassination uses no other macro aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket
I don't think it's ever worth dinar'ing a weapon
you only need 1 myth dagger to drop for your whole season
and crafted is just fine until then cause it's -3 ilvl
It just drops off very fast and will get beat out by other passive options
is offhand being a stat stick a uniquely rogue thing or do most duel weild classes work like this? I guess i had not thought about it much outside of how mut works
I was messing with sims a bit on my DH and it seemed to show that as well
or else dual wield classes would need 2 weapons
so it's like you could spread it to both weapons, but then it's just dual wield tax
where you would always need to find two weapons instead of one
and that sucks
or you do it like blizzard and just make the offhand not important
holy cringe
got tired of manually typing it to pug tanks
the schism of making that simple and the making so many random procs that it lags the game is prime blizzard
isn't it beautiful
😉

it's like 1 illidan dh tank away from needlessly creating a toxic key. I find no stressing about things out of your control makes life better
Counter macro that just spams the !restealth bot command response in chat
!restealth
Or whatever the fuck it is
haha
*Hm okay thats good advice and good to know
!chainpull
Explanation of why stealth benefits aren't as important as you might think:
- For starters, "Chain pulls" are NOT when the tank pulls a new pack with 1% hp remaining on the previous mobs. That is called "Bad Tanking", and it sucks for everyone in your party.
- Correct Chain pulls usually happen while the previous pack is still alive and not dangerous. This increases uptime on more targets, which is the biggest increase in DPS for the entire party. This is also the biggest reason why you see high key level players doing so much damage.
- Garrote is roughly 7-9% of people's damage in a key, most of which is already empowered/cleaved
- Most energy spreading will come from Rupture to maintain scent of blood, not garrote
- Without a Trace (+1 vanish charge) only grants roughly 2 additional casts across a whole dungeon, but does allow for holding vanish for large chain pulls which improves the quality of each vanish
- You can argue that it "feels bad", but numerically there is very little ground to stand on, the dps simply isn't there.
nah it's not in that way, it's just to let your tank know in case of WAY too much chaining or you can see he's about to chain a dying pack at like 5% hp
to be cringe about restealths

If there’s one mob at 5% that shit is eating an 8 second kidney
I am pretty sure you have a video somewhere about being okay with the restealth whispyr
These goobers are the reason tanks apologize to me halfway through the key cause they “didn’t let me restealth”

moving on
And then I just tell them
How many 12’s do I need to turn into 13’s for 17 rating
Anyone telling you they need a restealth is gaslighting you and bad
Tell them so

and by okay I mean not stressing
I had an oce tank apologize after a priory at the start of the patch for not letting me restealth
and I was like
....?

a tank that considered you? fucking wild
I mean he didn't
in retrospect
but it was one of the best keys I've run this expacc
and he was sorry about it
and I'm like
dude what
I swear man these FOTMS 
I sometimes wonder if someone at bliz is just like, "what if this whole dungeon was fighting on stairs"
????
Priory 
priory is close to the stairs dream

need restealth please** noob tank wtf are u doing!!!**
I would never ask for a restealth id just silently curse them for bad pulls. But with 2 vanish charges and meld I really don’t usually run dry
yea same
especially the first part
what is fastest dung for crests btw
im doing rookery but idk
til sudden demise yoinks all the soul shards from havoc
cause they have to land a killing blow
oops
they should add something that makes that more apparent to casuals
the amount of people i still see with their higher ilvl weapon in their offhand, even in 2025, is outstanding
thats wild in an of itself
Hey I’m glad you’re here, I did 2 shuffle lobbies at 2k mmr and went 3-3 in both. The journey has started
but like if you never bothered to care and read "attack with both of your weapons..." and you hit that button a lot it would makes sense that it mattered more no?

clear info i suppose is just much harder than making a scroll wheel mode I guess :p
Well to be fair
Mutilate specifically does use both weapons
So that is accurate
Mutilate does two hits, the first calculates the mainhand at 100% value, and then the offhand at 50% value
So in that case, the offhand does matter
It also matters for auto attacks
It’s just wholly unimportant outside of that
yeah for sure but that's the nuance of it
Hello everyone, I’m new to this spec, (just re-rolled from sub), tried to run some m+ dungeons, but still can’t manage good single target damage, how long I shall manage garrotte on boss, shall I just re-apply it after previous one overs or shall keep my vanish for next burst window or some chain pull?
cant you apply garrote without vanishing
Wait, do I can apply it without combat like ambush (with proc)?
press garrote during pandemic
its just a buffed garrote if you apply it from stealth/subterfuge
regular garrote has a 6sec CD, garrote from stealth/subt doesn't
but ye you always upkeep garrote on bosses
Y, my bad
Thanks for answers, I even didn’t know that I can do it outside stealth, now the my life will be better
Tier 11 delves or dfc
rookery is faster
Last boss is a slog
true but still faster than DFC
and third boss in DFC is a healer check
whereas rookery is way easier
for pugs
imo
you have to factor in losing your fucking mind running the same thing over and over
I finished two characters this week, I love M+ but like I could not imagine just tunneling the same thing.
I wouldn't farm the same thing over and over again tbh, need a bit of variety
I have encountered MANY new and interesting routes in 12s this week though :p
I did max dungeons on two characters for like a month and got super burnt out
It's too much
Alt is getting the 1 dungeon treatment from now
I raid on both in two different guilds and have for longer than I care to quantify, I fortunatly have a fun static group of people to run keys with
keeps me enjoying the game
irrelevant but compared to the wow interface cd tracking your WA pack + plater sits somewhere on mount everest
how many hours do you spend in raids?
my friend is going to the dark side (rolling ret pally)
both are 2 night guilds
usually end up with CE in both generally at different rates
if you like him stress the importance of keybinding sac/bop/wog/freedom and focusing on utilizing those the best he can
he is one step closer to embracing the 1 button rotation
probably harder than ret
you can flame me but I don't know that we can really talk too much shit anymore. complex and complicated are two different things
hpally is easy as well,dunno about palatonks
bro wtf
haven't touched hpally since legion magetower and probably won't
everyone in group 3k+
like assuming everyone was ready to do that, I would assume by that details there as a lot fo dead time
guys i reached the point where im doing 16s-18s bleed feels awful idk why
was
idk if i play cleave or hybrid
7 deaths and last boss tank died to the frontal because he didnt know he can sidestep it
3k tank btw 
his excuse was "im not a streamer watcher"

you win some you lose some
knowing how pety/lying wow gamers are ild say he spends at least 5 hours a day watching streams
i just told him to watch youtube tldr dungeon guide which is 2 mins max
if i got openly annoyed at every pug tank I wouldnt have all this hate keeping me warm
depleting +12 is crazy work
u cant really reason with 99% of the ppl u que keys with unless its a team on voice,dont spend any of ur patience 😉
que/repeat
100%
my litmus test is saying "yo" if they dont replay with somethign along the lines of "hi" I set my expectations lower
tanks doing stupid sht brickin keys
healers just dont heal
dps just dies to random sht
dont care,que again
i didnt spend any patience i just gave him a tip and left
on tuesday I was doing a 13 flood and the tank fell off the ledge on the 1st boss, which caused it to reset at like 15% health and he immediately left group. So far my favorite memory of the season.
also this week I had a shaman who's soul purpose in the key was to lust. Lusted at the start of the mid phase on the last boss of ML, maybe the worst possible time to lust in any dungeon at any moment ever.
stealing that
im yo or sup
born a yo will die a yo
yo sup and ty gl
i have been meaing to try out "/w [priest] you are PIing me here right? right?!?" regardless of the spec I am playing. I feel like they really appreciate that kind of thing.
make a macro "PI"
and spam it on burst window
I have a friend that plays priest that has a macro that whispers whomever they are giving PI too and its honestly the best messages I get
no need to respond and only an upside
this feels targeted
lol im yo
i feel like "brb bio" belongs somewhere on that tier list
Im a yo and ggs
hiyaaaaaaa
turbobrick tier
are you an instant key bricker
I open every video with hiya
not too late to switch hiya to yo
do i trust hte priest
End all vids with it’s whatever, byyyyeeeee
Seems he has a higher ground
getting flamed for not parsing high in a +12 pug 
people are trying to parse 12's?
isnt it just fodder for farming
damn hes taking it too serious
this guy apparently takes it very seriously
in a 12 anythign above 2mil is good prob
what do u mean "parses in m+"? 
I got flamed by the ret because I told the tank to not soak while the shields were going off on 2nd boss in priory 
tehy weren't even premade
idk how to write down what i wanna say without having moroes slapping me
and tank threatened to ragequit during the key too
yeah this is wow community today
was on a pug gally hc, wiped in P1 bc tanks fucked up swapping or bombs, cant remember, and some mage pointed it out, got reply from the tank "but your dps is the lowest" 😄
its crazy to me,i just say hello and good bye
cba yapping on keys right or wrong
F them
Wait a minute
Can these corruption head enchants go on any piece? Are they hard to get?
Just got told it's not out yet, disregard this
coming out on tuesday
I'll figure it out on thursday then
but the enchant itself is time gated a couple weeks after that as well
as a single dad with 5 jobs, 3 wives and 17 children I'm really glad they're staggering the content
makes sense
Silly question but on floodgate last boss,we clos 1st zap aight?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/r1kNmafVKTS7KGZVK584tF why is the sim trying to keep rupture on every single target (despite it not being the bleed build)?
even during kingsbane it casts rupture instead of spamming envenom
agi buff IG ?
sim is cooked
agi buff is capped to 5 targets
the sim is trying to keep rupture on all 8
over envenom
ah lol it's legit cooking
cleave build legit undersims bc of that
shindigg has a video about it i think
going over different builds and explaining sim issues
btw
when does bloodmallet usually update their simprofile? bc of higher ilvl rn
i personally prefer simming myself but its a good baseline thingy for more casual guildies
aoe patchwerk is stupid and not supported
to be fair I just wanted to see the correct aoe opener sequence
with that build it's this into envenom into cds
gar fok rup rup fok ct
Having to hold damage aswell?
yeah
I was pleasantly surprised how good the build is in single target
but I need to practice the aoe
I suck at it
bruh, we already have people afking in the gaols
hell knows how much more we'll have to stand about
wait like a minute for 4 mins or some shit at this pace
yeah
we have to stop dps when 2nd gaols would happen
or shield adds will stay for the rest of the fight
same
i love poorly implimented dmg increases
why do you have to hold dps? what happens if you just zerg him?
that make stuff a gian headache
but also if the rescue fails on me I am just always afk in gaol
most im doing is kicking
like lowkey the adds die kinda too fast if I am outside spattering 
its assa in gaol, not like as if you hitting stuff would be different
my miniscule damage pushes it over the top when our warlock is sending tactical nukes
there's timed debuffs and shit from the fire soaks and healer cds get desynced
yeah the healer cds is a big problem
cause you push it, get to next mine set and just die
yeh
you'd have to push a full side faster
atleast starting on wednesday you are gonna have to lust on pull
@balmy condor junkmaestro is not benefitting from zoldycks, right? just versatility and LD, iirc?
yes
hmm so not really a point to hold it for "execute"
!wa now i'm gotta look for a weakaura for it

just do the 1 goal strat
lust pull
phase into p2 fast af
4
it is also doable without lust on pull fwiw
not for guilds that just started mugzee

we are busy having people huff paint midfight
change "started mugzee" to "people that cant press 1-2-3 correctly"
too quote some of our pulls last raid
"move to metal....move.....OR YEHA, KEEP CASTING FOR 8SECONDS SURE"
am I not supposed to drop below 30 energy if I have a thistle tea charge?
Just ignore Thistle tea
he did
better answer thank you
Macro it to shiv, forget it exists
hi, does mastery increase envenom damages ?
yep
funny looking mage
ropaa teach me
We started mugzee last week or so. And we get hard challenged by the difference between "left" and "right" its a BIG Problem
ok thank you both, I struggle understanding why his envenoms are higher than mine on average cast, there is the 3% DH buff but still https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/kMqJFbAfm4dyhTn1?fight=14&type=damage-done&source=110
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/ADhQXMHbr9Ry6fdL?fight=14&type=damage-done&source=3
(yes I do use proper shivs on darkness night & lingering)
I simmed with versa recrafts but it sims lower 🙄
left is the hand where the thumb is on the right side
I mean he has a couple ilvl on you, it’s 100k

Does it matter
maybe the racial helps too I just noticed
Sure I guess
This seems like such a crock of nothing though
Like his envenoms are averaging 2.5% higher
Big whoop
ye it's a very small difference, but I would have timeed the key with 2.5% more dmg hehe
found 2,5% damage gain
I have another question, maybe you have the answer
on overall my rupture is much higher than his, it's because when I enter a new pack I do 9 target ruptures, he does only 6 and then sends the last gcd for a 3 target garrot instead
which one is better ?
that's during gorren when he does the aoe and I have too much energy
With that build there’s no reason to rupture past 5
You’re playing fully for envenom damage
Bleeds are there for energy and scent and that is literally it
yes but is there a reason to garrot either ?
in AOE
No
so the most optimal would be to rupture 6 targets (3+3) and then send the last gcd for envenom immediatly
skipping completly the last IC gcd
Probably should garrote for the energy
wait do you not want garrote on the target you are deathmarking 
it doesn't matter if it dies first anyways, but yes it's optimal for prio damages
but most of the time my prio target is the first one dying in packs
garrot energy gain > rupture energy gain with that build ? I only see venomous wounds giving energy
I will have to file a complaint for stalking
Why waste cp on rupture
rupture laster longer I'd guess its more efficient for energy
ah yes that, ok
Good morning people
🙄 🙄
is it good to use darkiron dwarf in the last 8 seconds of DM for dmg or is the boost to minimal ?
You would use it during DM ye
what kind of stupid am i, if i ask what you mean bei darkest night & lingering? i thought ud use both shivs in dm kb and then on next kb or am i plain stupid?
Dry shiv!

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
Stupid that doesn't read guides
But like most of people asking questions there so I guess it's okay
ye i didnt reread the whole guide after s1 mb
Not a problem, whispyr writes very comprehensive guides, 99% of the info u need is thete
or wait, is bubblewax the weapon consumable? if so just pickpocket kobolds
or just buy whetstones because they're cheap
but wax sims higher
I mean at least for me it did for months now
you can check yourself
by simming advanced with fuus consumable string from #tc-research pins
wait did u kill gally?
they killed gally on monday
You werent in?
no
idk if u were tehre but like
they did a marathon sunday
so 8h of raid
i was at my grandpas 80th :d
Sheesh
This for 2nd embellishment right? for either M+ or raid
yes
tyty
well its more used for raid
what would be bis for M+? and if the diff significant? had trouble simming this
The difference is pretty much irrelevant
even in the context of 20s, hypothetically?
Yes
Gotcha ty 
this was back in april, is this still true?

What makes you think its not true
i dont know, potential bug fixes. if its unintended a month's time is plenty to fix a known bug
Then it would be deleted from that post or there would be another post about it 
I love that 
ring is prob next craft, yeah? + gally ring
why dont you use cyrce's?
would probably craft bracers/belt/gloves or smthin before a ring
Just never got it lol, will today, but Ive been told crafted ring + gally is better untimately
hard to sim with this shit gear
idk, not for me
Some if not most people will be replacing circlet with heroic jastor + max myth rings. THIS IS NOT TRUE FOR EVERYONE SIM YOURSELF
and im way higher level than you are
in the pins
bless ok ty

how optimal is macroing tea to shiv? are there any minor improvements when delaying the tea usage? to have it up for last kb tick for example, like in the past
!tea
Shiv/Tea Macro
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:
/cast Shiv
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null
Assassination uses no other macro aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket

Maybe it is. x_x
wouldnt it be more optimal to cast tea for the last 12 secs of kb though?
instead of first 6 and then another 6 after a 2sec delay while missing it on last kb tick
or is that completely irrelevant to dmg atm?
i mean technically not irrelevant but its probably so miniscule
It doesnt really matter

should i use crimson tempest in 2 targets, as first boss in mechagon workshop for example, on forced induction build?
and should i use fok or mutilate in 2 target situation?
May I ask, when my goal is to play Rogue and really "main" a single spec (Assa or Sub) mainly in high Mythic+ push and also do high 3v3/RBG.... which one would you concentrate on ?
I mean I don't want the "FOTM" spec or the "is OP" build, good, consistent, fun spec.
Like what would you assume is this when you look at past/present/future ? I am pretty new to rogue tho
Just depleted a 15 top cause the VDH tank desided to disengage or whatever out of the xav arena and reset it

There you go
Probably sin
Its been always good in m+ since the rework
Because of how it works
And iirc its also fine in pvp most of the time
Sub is more often than not the best pvp spec rogue has, but can struggle in pve
so 2 targets from what i understand?
also this
not enough
bear grylls himself
bleed vs forced induction?
@winged sun I noticed you open almost every pack with ambush, even when you have a darkest night proc. Is there a reason for thjs? It seems like when I do this it bugs out my stacks of mark
hi, it doesnt bug out the stacks, you have to consume darkest night first to consume ur normal marks
reason why i do this is that its too important to have mark up to the level where if u lose it ur going to do -50% dps entire pull so i developed a habit that literally wont move my dps at all by opening with ambush
its not a dps loss its just 1 button in the entire pull it wont change anything
its just a safety net to never lose mark
low af
no warr buff unfortunately
Oh ok, makes sense. So you still have to use a max cp envenom to consume it eh?
warr buff this ross 
yes
Is it best to do that before putting up bleeds or crimson tempest? Or you put up bleeds first then have your mark consuned?
I have 19k mastery and 14.5k crit
When I check archon other rogues have like 21k mastery and 12k crit. but when I sim, mastery is lowest? Why could that be?
Magic robot do number to make biggest dps
Stats doesnt matter
ok, so just follow sim then?
always
ok thanks
anyone else running bleed build?
Nope, just you
i think its works so much better for me
yeah it's good
It's a new tech
That pretty much everyone should be using besides some particular cases
Nope, just you
wow... i can help with your 7 ml if you need
i thought you quit
never quit helping
Crafted wpn and neck on my rogue

just need to do some 7s/delves to hit 670+ and ill be cooking 10s
sin kinda fun
u basicly yolo
@winged sun if i may ask, in the workshop 1st boss, you reapply dots (for energy regen) and crimson tempest?
Does anyone have a focus maco and bind they could share?
Really feel like i need it now, getting tired of tabbing to wrong targets or having to mouse tap to another target
Nvm got it to work :)
i got a 6 workshop if you want
isnt that already rio for you `?
XD
@subtle tundra
what bind you guys using for target focus?
bold of you to assume we USE a target focus bind, muahaha
!fuu

@winged sun you run more vers than mastery?
i dont get invited to such keys
same
jsut remembered i need to pug again +12s on my rogue to get them trinkets
literally wanna pull my eyes out of their sockets
its some badluck protection though,i respect that,its ok
I dont think so, if i do its a mistake im not online atm
I wont be running those rings im playing again i think
Jastor is probably too big to miss
so i just used cloak on the spin attack where myth mugzee charges, and i got killed anyway
what key, and what was the dps?
on arm is nature other is physical
it literally says physical mate

What would be the best item to pick from the turbo boost event shop for a new assassination rogue? I plan to craft the 681 dagger. And I don't think I will be able to run mythic raid anytime soon I think
13 DFC, 3.74M
if you can do 12 keys, pacemaker/signet mythic
if you can kill mythic OAB, HoC, but its equal with signet, so kinda w/e
Jastors if you dont have it
@royal lantern would be doble as new player to do that before event goes away?
The event goes away during season 3…
isnt this "event" until the patch is over
and i mean, its +12 keys, thats kinda a personal skill thing

Yah I was wondering how your signet is proccing
for some thats a giga goal they need the entire season, others can do it in 1 week
I don't really know how difficult scale into dungeons. As I said, I'm completely new to wow. I played MMO for many years but it's the first time I'm "enjoying" wow, tried many times but never clicked for me. Now I'm enjoying it but all YouTube videos says is "challenging" "end game" "objective" but no clear indicator of when I can realistically engage in those content
I started playing 3 days ago basically
its unlikely but if being good at the game is something you want then yea its possible
eeeeeeehhh, i would just kinda buy heroic stuff then tbh
Is there any way to escape gaol on mugzee as sin rogue?
shadowmeld racial is the only way

or have people save you from it, but that requires timing
Thanks, though so, wanted double check
What does shadowmeld have to do with escaping a cage

I'm just going to do 10s, soloQ is not the way to go for 12s
same issue for 15's atm
Gotta push your key
i have to push my key to 14
then some d umbass ruins it then repush it up again
unless you can get a good group to key together
I'm not a resilient person
I'm good just gooning 10s and hoping for a good Vault
My enthusiasm has taken a hit lately
M+ will do that to you
hey guys im new to the channel and to wow, i picked up the assa rogue and would like some advice on gearing and gearing milestones. im ilvl 560 and since there are so many options, idk what path of gearing to take or what gear i should look for, can you help please thanks
Go to siren isle and take the ring, also while there you can buy some gear at around 590 if you farm the currency (you probably will by doing the ring quest) afterwards spam delves slowly increasing lvl each time also you can lfr raid ( i don't know exactly what ilvl is needed for lfr raid). With spamming delves you can get around to 650 with not much effort. M+ is more difficult and a weird environment but if you like it you can hop in that too
Thank you very much @analog field
My answer was not very analytical but if you need anything else go ahead 🙂
Idk if you unlocked it already or not but you can also do the hourly event in hallowfall named "nightfall" for veteran 630+ gear
new rogue here, the rotation looks super complicated, does it g et easier? Right now im just practicing single target on a dummy
demo lock is easy mode compared to this
the rotation is probably the easiest ever
there are only a few rules
You basically just need to track some bleeds and use your finishers at 5+ cps
Sin is pretty easy, keep your bleeds up, cycle through your deathstalkers mark, just practice it for a bit and you'll be fine.

Hardest part is just the cooldown rotation but once you get that down its fine.
Hmm. Is there any WA package that is the most popular? I guess I can check manually
i used luxthos for a while but i use whispyrs now
made by our tc'er so, specially for rogue
Guys i'm speedrunning One Piece
i keep pressing forward every ep, so instead of 20 mins, its around 7
Have you tried One Pace?
One Piece anime but edited so that its 1:1 with the manga pacing
May be worth a shot, I think it cuts the runtime down like 40%
Still keeps all of the manga stuff in, just gets rid of the recaps and the filler arcs.
