is it entilted or something like that if i just expect more from blizz in the first place there? legit question
mmmmm cool cool
not the end of the world either way so idk
yeah because even just KB and your envenoms into that target are destroying it really quick already
the last time i tried it i think my KB mob only lived just long enough for KB to have it's last tick
yeah zeross also just sent KB in a +20 log im looking at now so ignore my previous statement 
I mean compared to blizzard/gaming companies from 10-15 years ago? Nah
Compared to 2020 gaming industry? I think this sort of thing is pretty normal these days, release some half baked shit and fix it over a long time is sorta just the standard as much as it’s cringe
haha awesome! i appreciate your help
i heckin love modern gaming
I love it when I buy games 3 years later in a steam sale for dirt cheap with all of the big fixes
real
Got cyberpunk for like £20 this year, good game
Thank fuck I didn't buy it at launch
i swapped to cleave from bleed this week, was worried it would be a struggle bus
but it's not bad, literally just raid build with IC and CT
so no learning curve at all
the only game ive bought at launch in the last 5 years is oblivion remaster
because the jank is the fun of bethesda games
Clair Obscur for me, and also promise mascot agency which I forgot about
But paradise is an indie game so they tend to be safer
It is VERY good
game is bad regardless

We've intercepted a vague signal from space. Need your help to crack it!

new owlcat game
rumours atm are that its either an The Expanse game or Stargate
Owlcat where's my game using the pf2e system as a base. Pls.
stargate would go hard
this is definitely giving me some The Expanse vibes
but the little video also seems to mention Osiris, which is why people are guessing Stargate 
not this year
probably not even the next year
I want to believe
I mean if they are announcing it now its prob minimum 3 years away 😄
nah they tend to announce stuff like
a year before release, maybe a year and a half?
do you own key
i got on my dk and got into a key within 2 mins
and its around 3300 rio
my rogue is3332
its just crazy
we need soloq
yep
also ppl in lfg searching for outlaw
in top/rookery for some rzn
when they have an uhdk in their comp already
just weirdos
kind of based tbh
who coming im trynna make 3 rogue comp
its hardet oget into a key than it was during dragonflight
Because a billion people have "high rio" rn
Atleast in their mind
So most of them get really selective
the "do ksm and aotc then fuck off for the season" life is peaceful
^^
pf 2e or a starfinder game
its all i want man

Right?!
I cannot wait to play PoE until at least S3
i dont think you are right on this one but i get what you say
!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.
double vanish build has terrible st and prio dmg
well yea but if your doing higher keys you need that boss dmg
doing more aoe is most of the times useless
it has the same st and more prio unless you do giga high keys mate
^ that aswell
hmm okay yes i guess
if you have a arcane mage, you dont really play prio dmg
if you have a unholy dk + boomkin, you dont really want giga aoe and go more prio/boss dmg instead
high keys are comp based, not a "this is objectively better"


i think people confuse the fact that bleed has less prio than cleave into summarizing that bleed has bad prio
when you still have more prio than most other specs in the game
it just doesn't have the insanely busted prio cleave has
i'm playing both builds atm, and my. group wants me on bleed for some keys for iron wire
and i have to say running w/o a boomy, iron wire does a LOT of heavy lifting
Its fairly similar prio during cds, since the double bleeds from DM does way more
But envenom does less so outside of DM youre not prioing as much
yeah singular focus does hard work as bleed
how do you do you aoe opener with that new build? just (if no mark yet) ambush -> gar (even without giving more cp/dmg, just for the energy?) -> fok and rupture until 5 -> Ct and normal hybrid splatter cleave or do you ditch gar completely and just use fok for everything
whats the reason to use it at the end?
so you would be doing like a 3-4 CP rupture if you did ambush>garrote
Edit Mode is an example of them doing this well. Not making a claim to the rest of the conversation because holy hell this discourse but just want to say I disagree very specifically about Edit Mode. I think it was pretty good on release, and has only gotten better, with the first few iterations happening relatively quickly after releasing it.
it's also less valuable to be spreading garrote with cleave build during IC
you want to get out your ruptures asap first
that's the most important thing
6 secs of IC is tight, so you gotta do ruptures first
the only thing edit mode still needs is the ability to hide bars unless you mouseover them
then its great
Snapshotting auras are extremely mild in comparison to things like liquid raid packs, the latter of which I believe to be more the problem blizzard wants to curb stomp.
Also the option to disable stance swapping bars for stealth
Like they even released it with the ability to import/export
thank you @burnt juniper. Good to know it is still worth to cleave it once during IC after your ruptures, even without all the talents buffing it
i'm honestly not even sure if it's worth pressing garrote during IC or if it even makes a big difference, but i try to do it if i have enough time
my main focus is on getting out 5-6 ruptures, anything else extra on top is gravy
i'm usually on par or beating rets
while doing WAY more funnel
ret is the ultimate padding the meters dmg
Without speccing into CT how do we get more barrel damage on Rik Reverb?
My raid leader said "top sin rogues are doing up to 25% of their damage to barrels, no way its just good spawns."
To which looking at logs it seems its just good spawns with CS damage, but i guess im looking to improve my barrel damage
!rik
Rik Reverb Barrels (and similar spread cleave in raid)
- Not your problem.
- Assassination is the worst target swapping spec in the game, and we have no tools available to deal with the situation of priority spread cleave. Caustic can reach sometimes but similar to fire mage, the boss needs to be on top of the adds, causing caustic to often be out of range.
- If you're truly hellbent on swapping to barrels, hold your nearest darkest night and just slam a darkest night envenom into them and pray. If you're quick enough you can also pool combo points/energy and cast a rupture on a barrel to try and caustic off of them. This still will not do good barrel damage, again, the spec is doomed for it
- Another possible option would be talenting into Crimson Tempest by untalenting Bone Spike and Doomblade. This CAN TECHNICALLY provide a bit of barrel damage, but the spawns need to be immaculate and any difficult spawns will just result in no barrel damage again.
With all that, the best advice we have for swapping barrels: - Swap to Subtlety.
its just good spawns
- tanks moving boss onto barrels
it’s tank positioning for you
tell your raid leader to look at how much of that damage is caustic
and realize its 100%
maybe some rupture snipes and poison bombs
yeah having good pylon management is key but also top dps is what like 2.5-3m on rik?
its gonna mangle your rotation/ramp time most kills
all keybinds of a ret paladin get automatically replaced with Divine Storm the second a 2nd healthbar enters their field of vision
me on first boss dfc
we do that 3x2 strat and those narnia barrels are just grrrr
pressing CT everytime new adds spawn is ethical dmg
real
ignore that the ct dot on the boss is fully buffed and at 14seconds
Im almost convinced you never press garrote unless you want your prio mob dead even faster and only during DM. And even then, you're losing a global not pressing fok/envenom
Obviously for the hybrid FI build
garrote isn't great keypress
kind of yes 😉
yeah that was kinda my feeling too
On 3 target boss maybe
that 1 global pressing garrote feels like turbo dogshit
Like goren with 2 crushers
Thats a lot of energy so its probably worth
But at 5+ targets? Ehhh
very true
good
i tried juggling garrote on first boss on priory cause lmao, its just energy regen
u are forever here.
idk it sounds like a good idea because sudden demise but sanguine and also hybrid zug zug or something
For priory boss specifically I can see it since it replicates the damage so you're not "wasting dps"
But iirc in 2 target you dont garrote the other target
Also nowadays we pull in both lynx packs on the sides into that boss one by one so infinity funnel
it does?
yes everything you do to both targets kills the boss faster
thought it was just a dummy for fok etc
it's not padding
yeah i talked my tank into doing that, i love it
Its VERY scary on 20 I will say
that boss takes a fucking eternity so you need all the extra help you can get
Usually sap a potshot guy so we only have to deal with 1 during radiance aoe and leaps
haha half the time someone breaks the cc
i dunno how
people can't control their fingers
get too itchy to try to top overall
The second pack idk what we're doing yet, we play bear so it may just be a deal with 2 angle
Ursols the lynxs on boss and pray
their leaps are scary
Ursols makes it free and if you're all stacked they don't jump
we don't have a druid /cry
Its really just potshots and using stuns on them during the frontal
So they dont leap
oh they don't jump if you're all stacked? that's good to know
Well if you're stacked on them specifically like the moleherds in dfc
Who are you playing with rn btw?
i'm playing with friends who have never gotten title before
ret/enh/vdh
so i'm gonna be real, i'm behind because i'm playing with them
but i'm having fun
Ah I don't know them personally but i have seen them in lfg from time to time haha
I just remember you posting a ss of a hunter I knew so i was curious if it was team or pug
what i've been doing is getting IO from pugging and helping them get resil
I thought that also applied to fury warriors. But we had one in our guild who did not press whirlwind once on aoe fights
probably a pug
Ah yeah I've been getting a loooot of dms now that im resili 19
A blessing and a curse ig?
huge!
Im always happy to play tho so it doesn't bother me i just enjoy the game
based gamer gaming
it feels a bit shitty because i'm a title caliber player who's fallen behind, so i'm probably -100 IO than if i was full degen pugging like i used to
What io are u rn?

Hi guys which build should I use for 10~12 key runs ?
Ah thats not even bad
not abysmal, but yeah
!bleed
Bleed vs Hybrid vs Cleave/FI builds

Cleave is for single target damage and insanely large aoe because of how much caustic and crimson tempest carry aoe damage.
thanks !
i would play bleed tbh, the cleave build feels really bad when your prio target dies in 5 seconds
Thats 17s? Or 16s into 17s range?
Ah i c i c, yeah 18s is where things start getting punishing
Like a wipe will actually end the key
yeah dude the jump from 17-18 feels quite big
Yeah they changed scaling with guile being removed
So 18s are now last seasons 19s
The jump from 18 to 19 is even bigger
And 19 to 20 crazy
BUT at least it hasn't started approaching that difficulty i felt from previous seasons doing title keys haha
oh yeah i can imagine
20s are actual dps check
When playing bleed build, do I have to Garrote and Rupture to every single target ?
Like first time this season we've been challenged on time and not mistakes
as many as possible ideally
during IC
Improved garrote, during subterfuge/MA/IC
IC ?
Indiscriminate carnage
^
Your aoe bleed spreader
oh ~ thanks
bro my group told me "we won't ever reach the point of needing to optimize for damage getting title"
and i was like
ok
this is talk from a perspective of never done title range keys
right here
oh yeah i can feel it already
but at least it doesn't feel like ceiling territory yet
which is good
im pretty sure last season we just bungled our way around and got it
i dont think u super need to optimize
i half pushed last season so i never got to title range keys 😉
i think the highest i did was 15?
I mean tbh last season was, "what mechanic does my tank flop to?"
haha true
And if they dont flop congrats you have title range
but i can't wait for my group to reach the point of making it to the end of a key with very few mistakes and still not having enough time
This season is MUCH more on the dps for sure
i remember our eventual final NW our tank was still unaware the bleed guys put a max hp reducing debuff
and then the sudden realization
And healer to an extent
so he was just tanking it with 30% max hp
Lolll
oh yeah
and then our healer's gear broke on stitchflesh
and he healed it with 5 red pieces
meme season fr
LOL
this is why i have over 200 repair bots in my bags
Truth
i'm the designated repair botter for my raid and push group
dude i failed a DFC once because the tank was mid demolish while the first fear went out on candle king
everybody panic kicked
and then we had 0 kicks for the next fear
so we all get feared and wipe
gg
Oof
Prophethood on NA
bro got fans
Iirc
it's a little frustrating because i know i could be higher

but i'm pushing now for fun
to my understanding is that they wont discriminate between those two,they'd rather have hekili than private auras and packs that enhance game understanding to its core.From simple rotational stuff to raid warnings,pvp etc
Im just a knower hehe
that i've tried to quit pushing since like... S4 of DF
id kill for a team
i quit for an entire season
s1 tww
now im back
to pugging and losing my mind
and every time i say i'm quitting everyone's like "YEAH SURE OK BUDDY"
iirc yeah bleed simmed haste
but i havent simmed the cleave
just got all mast/crit
vers/mast for m+
Crit mast is fine, but for hybrid versa value goes way up
works for sub as well
Not sure why I didn’t think about extra haste for bleed….
😉
Wayyyy too much crit
y not
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
Your priory is probably giving you crit instead of mastery just from eyeballing your stats
I don’t have a myth wep , I was contemplating going 2nd wep too…
If your pacemaker procs what is your crit value? Cause it can cap you higher than your mastery and make signet give crit instead
literally wasted a spark
rather craft a ring instead
ah
thats true
yea ill swap a ring then
for vers/mast or something
You'd probably gain value by doing that ye
what are your raitings
Versa very good with cleave, haste very good for st/bleed build
charrend have you gotten rid of cyrces? its rookie q but yeah
p sure its with us all season but making sure
just sim it
I will finally be able to drop cyrces tomorrow when I can buy myth track jastors 😍
vs a myth track ring
super vers heavy ring
ye double myth was -2k dps loss no way
aint no way
Must be low mastery so circes is compensating if i had to guess
yeah
I only had 1 myth track ring and crafted has been like -0,5% or something for me
only explanation actually
nope mastery is like...63%, it's def my highest stat
lemme see if server is still on
it feels wrong to me that u crafted a 2nd wpn instead of a ring tbh but whatever
i could only replace with jastor
same, myth jastor is like 1,3% better for me aswell 
My sub gear is identical to assa except trinket
buff assa.
haven't simmed a vers mastery ring but that might be replacement, boots are crit/vers cause lmao outlaw but
sorry no item tags but its close tm to wowhead bis
Oh at that ilvl you probably keep circes. But its always best to just sim it
yeah figured
And im gonna pray your stuff is enchanted and it just doesn't show on ui haha

jastor gonna pop off 

What ilvl ish do you say we drop circies?
I dropped mines at 682 I think
Honestly whenever the sim says so, probably max 8/8 myth and its only a small gain
The stamina is the real gain haha
when playing bleed build, if the mobs have about 30% hp left, do I have to still apply bleed to all mobs? or should I just focus on prio target and do the rotation ?
Yeah reapply bleeds
Oh shit…. Yeah I don’t have a myth piece and am fully upgraded at 674.8 (I wanna throw up)- and not using it.
Should prolly put it back on
if I don'y have ambush, should I reapply each mobs ?
I feel like it sims circies big wrong tho?
no?
No it shouldn't
just have the correct gems in and it sims as it should
Okay, just got talked in to it simming it wrong by a buddy I suppose.
You should always have 5 ruptures going at the very minimum, crimson tempest. Everything else is discretionary, but ruptures will provide more value than envenom in bleed talents
thanks
it's "700ilevel" but yeah raw stats probablly outweigh mastery buff it provides
If it does theyll just buff it until it doesnt
damn brown orc that much higher huh (not really)
What im more surprised by is
undead is worse than vulpera
according to this

Is your friend a rogue and is he here with us?
tbh if your spec likes mastery
and it doesnt dislike any stats
hard to beat circe
Yeah 6.2k mastery plus 800 of every other substat is insane
lol nope.
and vulpera has flips
and you know the rule
flips = +4% dps overall

Dwarf my beloved
Just helps so much with rogues weak point being dots
I do wish you could just chose your racial and play whatever for asthetics
but blizzard bad
man i wish we could like buy racial abilities...now that u mentioned that
potion of dorf etc
like once a season
Troll my beloved.
during clash did you stand between bosses and fok? lose deathmark etc
no I chose one side
yeah go be the sandwich meat and uh fok spam
don't run cheat death etc and use defensives so you dont grief too hard if you eat a hit
Yeah your cooldowns are kinda fucked
yeh that was hella sloppyu
Lmao
First thing I noticed
If you outta sync your cooldowns you will do tank damage
true
Then your next set of cooldowns was like, 3 and a half minutes in
Step 1 to learning assa: deathmark shiv kingsbane
So you're just delaying CDs massively when on that boss you can just send them
Step 2: ?
You should be sending cooldowns on just about every fight instantly
That's the main thing I'd look into
Well
we don't vanish in raid except to move deathmark now right?
Get bleeds up
I get sad when I put my kingsbane before shiv
Depends on your build
IO know im not supposed to but sometimes accident
Use envenom
If you send cooldowns appropriately and keep your cpm up your dam will skyrocket
Then go into cds
Yes vanish is only used to move your dot
hello sexy assassin rogues individuals
MA, you vanish, VV, no vanish
ok so for that I just need to sync better and not fumble those
Well some shivs are gonna be dry but you can also just send every cooldown on cooldown and be fine.
because on this one I did hella better is this closer to what it should look like ? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/NGDTZ6cv94YrQ2FC?fight=19&type=casts&source=2&view=timeline
We FOK on 2 targets? or is it only cauldron
We always be fokking
FoK for sure when you get clear the witness proc
!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
so u pretty much only FoK on 2 targets when u have a clear the witness proc
one time only though
yeah
Slightly but, still messed up a bit
The above guy said fok spam which i got confused by
Get rid of that ambush and you'll be fine
no yeah it's just caustic
i only have a 54 parse on mythic cauldron for some reason
Deathmark shiv kingsbane -> shiv at 8s left
but yeah raid aoe wowhead spec
I think that ambush was a proc
why are we not running cheat death what
Also don't magnet unless lingering darkness is up
git good
Rogues don't die in raid why u need cheat
You still have to manually hit it which you shouldn't have done, but it's closer to what you need to do!
you dont die cause u run cheat death 
Why would you not run cheat in raid
Nahhh we just don't die
Wtf are you using elusiveness on
I take the least amount of damage in every fight
Last season kyveza kek
Healers hate this man

so I deathmark - shiv at 8 seconds left of deathmark then kingsbane vanish envenom?
cloak and elsuive goes hard last season
yeah I would also hate my dps if they are feinting on CD blowing away energy for no reason
No
no
Deathmark - Shiv - KB all in a row
and then when first shiv runs out you shiv again
Then you cover the last 7 seconds of deathmark with your second charge of shiv
Dearhmark shiv kingsbane shiv kingsbane deathmark shiv kingsbane
More shivs but
You get the idea
Shivs darkest night
Envenom envenom envenom envenom envenom envenom envenom envenom
I'll shiv your night
garrote garrote rupt
Why would healers hate healing someone less monkaS.
They don't care about your dps never have never will
Is it viable to run the Hybrid M+ build in raid
No
good point thought i should just let the healers do more work
gotcha what about bleed build?
I'm actually never hitting feint on reclear now
no
yea
u play raid build in raid 
If they ask why I'm pointing to uwu
based
You know what I miss in M+
I like giving them something to do, they look bored
Going cheat death and unbinding feint
BFA rogue had that one thing where your FoK would echo off other targets
Trueee
If the reason youre asking is becayse you find yourself comfortable in the mythic+ build, youll learn that assa raid is very easy
I wish they could bring that back in
I feel pretty good in ST or m+
I jsut need to stop fukin up my rotation
Assa raid build kinda brain dead
also I press feint, but idk why you would ever run elusivness in raid
:nodders:
like stuff is AoE
I am very comfortable with the m+ build
Gotta be bottom on dtps chart
its mainly what I do
but like what non AoE things are there to feint in raid even
unless ur tanks are dead and you are feinting tank busters 
Fein Fein Fein
Most fire puddles on the ground
But besides though pretty much nothing
i just died to last boss in floodgate
appaently if u stay right in the boss hitbox
the aoe hits u instantly
cheat death once it procs
never knew
yea its cringe
oh fun fact you can cloak the sparks on floodgate last
most of you probably knew that
Cheat death doesn't even stop a lot of the one shots.
just stand there and absorb them for the homies
cheat death is so bad in keys
we are talking about raid
sorry
Survive a stix bomb just cause you're built diff
Some keys cheat is fine
Like DFC or workshop
Or rather, elusiveness doesnt do much in those
So might aswell play cheat
I mean candle king kinda needs elusiveness at high key level no?
nahh needs an insane healer lmao
Its not 40% + 20%
Its 20% when the 40% doesnt work
So if the 40% already works (which it does on everything barring stray casts in dfc)
reduces non area of effect damage by 20% sounds good
and the 40% work against most things you dont think it would work against
Elusiveness feint does nothing
TIL this
if elusivness was 40%+20% dr, it would be waaay to powerfull
that would be a mage talent
def
Just play outlaw and have feint going whole key tbh
Well as outlaw you have to play cheat so you can press killing spree 
like, feints dr works against a good chunk of things where the application is "aoe" allready
even the dot part
gotta cast it b4 the cast or does during the dot work as well
Its just random if a spell is counted as aoe or not
Bee boss in meaderys big aoe pushback? Not aoe
Let it hail on last boss meadery? Not aoe
the bee boss in meadery pushback group dmg is no aoe right
you said the same thing

idk at the start of the season it made sense to press feint more, elu has that writing that makes it sound like mini dr button
is the dungeon slice sim for ass worth running?
also all of last season
Wait a minute those aren't aoe wtf
i know it varies spec to spec
And the zaps on last boss floodgate are aoe
And the dot from soaking orbs in priory also aoe
pasta pepe
Is it ok for me to throw knife as a top of to getting max combo points if I dont want to over combo
no
No, you should never cast throw knife
its overworld spell for the meme
or like throw knife at goren cause that guy's a dorf
Ah man I was hoping it would add to my rotation
Even if you are out of range of a boss, its better to save the energy
ok
ur gonna overcap combo points a lot BC of deathstalkers mark re application
ok so its just gonna happen
yeah
toss it at rik or smth in interm kek
miau
np 
F augs
may burn in hell
no no i said the same thing but they licherally temporal anomaly and their other ability mean u gotta stand infront of them
feels weird setup tho
No boss is ever dying
Thats why you are the Boss King
ye its a lot
pala has too good st rn
such a brainded spec
i'm afraid of calling other specs braindead with how many buttons have been consolidated into passives/macros for assassination this xpac
at least for raid
I zug zug boss.
just like me frfr
Hey, quick question, probs a stupid one too as new to assa, during kingsbane, is the goal just to get out as many envenoms at max CP as possible?
!carnage
Indiscriminate Carnage Targetting and Swapping
TLDRMouseovers/Target swapping is optimal on 6 target, or 8+ targets, but not necessarily required
- The 2 Bleeds spread by carnage are smart and will prioritize mobs without the bleed. If everything already has bleeds it'll apply randomly
- You as the character are still casting the bleed against your target like normal, this is why people will sometimes use mouseover macros or swap targets
Swapping targets is situationally better, but can be ignored if you're having difficulties with it. Take 5 mob aoe as an example, your first garrote cast will apply to 3 targets (your target + 2 more). Regardless of if you swap or not, your second cast of garrote will hit your target, and then apply 2 more garrotes, prioritizing the mobs that do not have garrote. In very large aoe pulls (12 or more), a standard opener (garrote-garrote-rupture-rupture-garrote-garrote) will only apply 9 garrotes (3+2+2+2) and 5 ruptures (3+2) if you do not swap, losing you 3 garrotes and a rupture.
It is technically worse, but the situations in which you lose bleeds aren't very common; the lost ruptures/garrotes don't contribute much to your already flooded energy, you don't get additional scent of blood stacks, etc. The loss is purely the extra damage from those bleeds.
5+ not max
The only time you force max CP is for darkest night
Alrighty, sounds good, thanks for the help 😄
quick question, i look on some bosses on ST rogues get 3-3.3M dps but i sim a hypothetical full biss gear 684 with raid buffs and only get around 2.5M sooo... Where do people get that 600-700k difference from? raidbot didnt sim excecute phase from Zoldyck o raid buff from reputation?
in raid?
yes
maybe the 12% damage buff that everyone gets

i use the 12% manual, and get 2.8m from 2.5m
it does sim execute
Which bosses you seeing
but also, raid fights arent just a patchwerk fight
There’s a bunch of factors that could be in play
Sprocketmonger
theres a billion random procs from other specs that give you dps, they add up aswell
also assa is known to sim less than it does historically
nothing weird
also if you look at the top logs, and then you look at sim average its gonna be a bit skewed
Honestly tho no idea how the R1 sprocket log did 3.4 mil that’s nuts
I did the test because I was shocked by the difference.
its that easy
like if I take my top end sim damage, 2,8m and then add 12% raid buff and stuff and stuff and sim full ST talents we probably get close
also r1 didnt do 3.4mil? its 3.2
hybrid for a 17 cinderbrew hmm
Yeah my b that was sub rogue
XDD
huge gz
So late? This was my First vault of the Season
SMH MY HEAD
now i can spend my dinar today on jastor and be actually done
idk what to get
hoc for sub angle (not happening) or kezan for reclears
or bandit dagger for xmog
Kezan for Reclears is not good
Kezan for Next Tiert early Mythic Bosses ? Maybe
just for gally I mean, I'm basically bis everywhere
Gally will be sub 7 Minutes Soonish
kezan simmed like a gain for me on 6+minutes
I mean if you ahve spare Dinars its prolly a good choice
Im just saying Kezan is prolly more usefull for Next Content where Fights will be 5+ Minutes
BEcause this tiers Bosses will become very short
soon-ish
yeah i mean what else do we buy
jastors and eye for next tier
lmao
hoc if you hate yourself and want to play some sub
I assume HoC is just outright better than Signet of Priory?
I mean HoC is also better than Signet on my Sin
but you get an extra use out of it? i'll sim it and see
ahhh true

i didnt even see that yall were talking about HoC in chat. I was blinded by choosing my vault my bad
perfect comp
Can you move your aoe cc tracker a bit further up
so it doesnt clip into the kick of the monk
EEEE myth dagggerrrr
i like you alot, cuz that was the only i saw as well
one based individual
dumb question but took a break for like a month, is cyrce's ring still stuck at 658 ilvl?
Yes
yes
i have 2 mythic rings that still sim lower than having cyrce's still there and it's messing with my dopamine hit of higher ilvl
lol
Probably needs to be a big mastery ring
yeah it's 0.5%
Yea but it’s helps a lot
Need. Damage buff to compensate 🫣
there's no catchup mechanic for cartel chips/dinars if i missed a weekly quest right?
Nope
Don’t think so
Ur fucked
yea thats what i figured, thanks

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


rookie numbers
Silence outlaw player

When I swap I got 12 % XD
Shhh we just look at the left
surprised you tossed your other ring first

Probably why its a 7k gain in favor of hoc for me.
i kinda wanna play around on sin since the season is coming to an end, would the fastest way be just to craft 2 daggers?
offhand is not important
Offhand is jobless yeah
so i basically just need dagger on MH?
why is this discord server gay during men's mental health month smh my head

hey, i know this is a super variable thing. But what kind of ST dps should i be looking at achieving with bleed build at 663 ilvl?

Do you use Siren ilse ring in Raiding?
It sims worse than any other ring I have but Still seems like a lot of people use it
you suck 2 good?
Some people are able to find ring combinations where it sims higher for their character, others can't. There isn't a one size fits all answer outside of 'just sim it'
But yeah if it's simming higher just swap it out
Yeah cause I simmed every possible gem and it still simmed worse so I reckon I just skip using it
Reject the sims embrace the vibes
