speaking of soaks, soaks cemented my distrust of mages.

our mage on mugzee prog did 7 soaks over 2 nights, got benched due to it and had a fucking meltdown and ragequit

fuckin' mages man

Mage cannot be trusted

#

they are perfidious

#

Nah this mage was frost/arcane

#

Our fire mage is chill

#

Apart from his insistence of putting portals to oribos on top of the warlock closets

hey guys, this might be a silly question, i play a lot of bleed build and i love it, but when the rookery calls i gotta switch to hybrid, i was wondering if we should still keep CT on single target or just skip it? at this point it's a habit 😄

scarlet orbit
#

You only ever want to use ct on singletarget with bleed build. On hybrid you dont use it in singletarget

midnight scroll
#

got it, thanks!

Hey all, had a 3 month break from the game. Bleed Build is the way to go for M+
? Without KB?

keen spruce
#

Ye

#

Any changes in Raid Build? We don't Vanish anymore right?

molten willow
#

Do yall like using the hybrid m+ build using KB?

red schooner
#

Some people have MA simming higher

golden loom
#

mainly a single target choice tho

#

cause on cleave fights VV should always be better

Alright thanks.
What's this with Crests? No more cap?

No more cap

Hey folks, I need a sanity check for m+. Playing bleed build on, +14ish

Trash opener: am I supposed to spam garrote and rupture until carnage falls off or everything has both dots - assist with fan of knifes if I lack cps. Then crimson tempest, blow deathmark and trinket on prio target, blast envenom/fok/muti(for spatter).

Did I got this right ?

#

Do you guys redot if ruptures/garrotes fall off in longer trash fights? Found my self using vanish for it to get carnage up for easier spread.

runic hinge
#

I’d get ct up a bit sooner. It does big damage and yeah. Use vanish to refit

winged sun
#

Looks useless

midnight mist
#

ye

winged sun
#

Looks like they might buff

#

Gain is extremely low

dapper cradle
#

100% they will buff it

winged sun
#

If they buff it 2-3% might make 21s easy

golden loom
#

I hope it gets buffed but also hope it doesnt get to a point where we use it as long as we did circlet..

dapper cradle
#

They want people to do their slop content and grind it out

keen spruce
#

I’ll grind you out and slop on your content

#

dumb question, but what poisons are in use these days.... it seems a little different from S1

sharp viper
#

always deadly poison, atrophic/numbing for utility, if you have dragon tempered blades you additionally use atrophic and crippling poison. wound poison has a very niche use case for pvp and last trash pack in cinderbrew

prisma monolithBOT
#

You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:

Lethals:

  • Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
    Non-Lethals:
  • Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB

Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used

runic ridge
#

Noticed that kingsbane has been dropped form M+ builds too

normal mist
#

it still is a thing for prio dmg builds

sharp viper
#

!bleed

prisma monolithBOT
#

Bleed vs Hybrid vs Cleave/FI builds
Broad rules and Section in Guide:

  1. If you have to ask, you should play bleed
  2. 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.
runic ridge
#

well on wowhead

normal mist
#

Bleed is the easiest build without KB that we recommend using up until high 17's/18s

runic ridge
#

ah, so bleed vs poisons

#

i forogt about all the help commands, i will read up on those and pins

Beides that one, one you might need to use is:

With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:

/cast Shiv

Assassination uses no other macro aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket

i guess you just splatter the techs on gally and not focus them?

Can melee classes get the gallywix mythic lazer frontal on them?

Yeah everyone can iirc

Nop

Probably goes on melee if you dont have ranged players, but it definitely does not target melee

Gotcha

lethal lynx
#

how much better is heroic Jastor Diamond over a myth 85-Year Tenure Ring?

#

I could sim it ig but my gear is all sorts of scuffed stats wise since I'm not geared yet

normal mist
#

Unless you want feelscraft answers, sim is probably your best answer

waxen oyster
#

For most people jastor is always going to be one of your 2 slots

#

the other being myth/crafted ring or circlet

lethal lynx
#

isn't jastor only good if you can maintain combat?

main bridge
#

you might be thinking of eye of kezan

waxen oyster

jastor is the only heroic item worth for rogue

to spend dinars on

my trinket luck has been awful

signet good

do y'all macro signet to deathmark or use it on cd since it's not 2min?

waxen oyster

signet is 2min

but ye either way u just macro

do your delve map every week

hero energy drink or mechanocore are super strong

Idk if they buffed it but i got map first bountiful sidestreet

you can force a map

waxen oyster

nah i did sidestreet on 4 chars

all of them got a map

but the scrambler is nice

normal mist

this is really good yeah

@spice surge really sorry for ping but read ur note on profile, do you happen to record your povs and have a gally one? i usually steal your lorrigs but just was interested in seeing pov since u can get a ton more broad info faster than diving thru log

spice surge
#

Not really no, but its mostly just send on CD

#

Except making sure you have it up at 7 mins when the adds spawn for maxx padd

#

(obviously dont send kingsbane 2 seconds before he does supression)

worn geyser
#

yee thats what it seemed, your cd usage always makes sense to me which is why i take your lorrigs, but thats okay i can look thru the replay system for positioning related stuff

spice surge
#

Im not particularly fond of ultra paddmaxxing on adds

#

Like the current top sub logs hold cds until first adds, which feels demonic

worn geyser
#

our enh shaman i think must have seen that log

#

its kinda cringe doing that stuff but i dont mind holding them a bit for the 2x tech spawn ig which is what alot of logs do : edit ty eleem !

can I get some critique on my oab kill? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/vakwy9dH27DjhVfJ?fight=27&type=casts&view=timeline&source=15
some things I know -
*kb wasn't always on cd, delayed like 10s - kinda fucking up missing mayb one additional kb in kill
*didnt rupture snipe as much as I could have
*died last 20s
*did some funky target swapping when tank wasn't pulling oab on top ads which shafted deathstalker stacks a bit

got 20 parse but felt like a 40 idk just looking to see if there's anything else I should focus on

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

spice surge

Should not be using fok much, if at all on a fight like bandit

I kept getting bullied by guild on my vault screenshots and went looking for a fix

they add a new cod game every year and add 100 skins

wtf is this dogshit OMEGALUL

atleast let people have their skins in the new game or someshit

probably because people keep buying and playing it

cuz new expansion has new mounts

sure i might buy it but

everytime i just end up disappointed

@hidden bay ngl dune looks abit underwhelming, i heard u need a server too?

can play public servers

makes no difference

imagine playing a server based game kekYOU

Nah hosting private servers is great

I've not looked into the dune game anyhow, or the recent announcements.

I loved waycrest manor simply because of the mindcontrol on the coven

#

So many frost mages oneshotting their teammates with frost spike

worthy rose
#

guys

#

this isnt a strictly rogue or assassination questionr ight

#

but

#

would it be better to craft a haste mastery necklace or to craft the 681 pants with dusktrhead lining

#

i remember the rule of thumb is that mainpieces over accesories

#

but my hatse is so dogshit low and iirc like 70% of your stats come from necklace and rings

keen spruce
#

just sim it sus

worthy rose
#

i dont know how to sim

#

whispy does that for me on rogue

keen spruce
worthy rose
#

also i only just dinged the day before yesterday

#

gearing is pretty decently fast these days

keen spruce
#

wut server is that toon on

worthy rose
#

frostmourne

#

my gut feeling is still to craft the pants

#

but then the necklace is screaming for an upgrade

#

thats my levelling necklace i got in some heroic or something

keen spruce
#

yeah but you can get a necklace from anywhere

#

if you're going to put an embelishment in your legs anyways

#

then that's a more permenant solution

worthy rose
#

makes sense

#

guess i just gotta keep farming

keen spruce
#

you could just do both though no?

worthy rose
#

legs first then necklace

#

yeah

#

i got a fucktonne of sparks

#

i just have to keep farming and grinding stuff out

#

its insane when i was at 640 ilvl i was doing like 3.5-4mil dps on cinderbrew

#

was going neck and neck with a sub rogue at 675ilvl

#

💀

#

either sub rogues are doodoo or unholy dks are mad op

#

and fuuuck i aint gonna lie eye of kezan is kind of inting in low level mythics where shit dies too fast and i have to keep ramping

#

asking tank to just do fatty chainpulls LOL

normal mist
#

Kezan isnt really good for m+ anyway

worthy rose
#

been farming floodgate nonstop yesteday

#

no sign of seaforium

#

took me 15 runs i think on my rogue before i got a heroic seaforium

normal mist
#

Desire sensor goes hard

waxen oyster
keen spruce
#

so like

#

the neck would be the biggest upgrade rn

#

but since you can get a heroic one

#

just by farming

#

idk it doesn't rly matter

#

if you plan on farming out crests and stuff anyways

worthy rose
waxen oyster
#

yeah

keen spruce
#

then you could craft a neck to do more dmg to farm

#

or just craft the legs and be done with it and you might find a neck while farming crests

#

kind of all the same

worthy rose
#

hmmm

keen spruce
#

that thing doesn't do embelishments

worthy rose
#

im at 30 crests in inventory atm

keen spruce
#

the one i pulled

worthy rose
#

if every 10 gives 16 and every 12 gives 20

keen spruce
#

but roughly the right numbers

worthy rose
#

best case i need 270 crests in total coz i need two duskthread linings

#

pants and bracers or cape prob

keen spruce
#

oh i also simmed ST KEK

waxen oyster
#

bounty map chest gives 20

worthy rose
#

pants and cape maybe

keen spruce
#

w/e same same

worthy rose
#

and necklace

#

30/270 of the way there

#

240/20 thats 12 dungeons fuuuck

#

gonna take me all night

normal mist
#

you could craft a neck rn either way

#

and then recraft it

#

with higher ilvl

worthy rose
#

i dont have runed crests either

normal mist
#

basic craft is like 640 right?

keen spruce
waxen oyster
#

to the delve mines with you

keen spruce
#

probably something like that

worthy rose
#

hmmmm

#

my original intention was to gear up in full heroic pieces in prep for next season

#

but i thinkt heres enough time to try get fully myth'd out on this dk

normal mist
#

probably

waxen oyster
#

just get myth appearances

#

to have the mog

normal mist
#

^

worthy rose
#

yeah

#

also holy shit crafting that 2handerw as expenisve

#

it uses 12 of whatever those alloys

#

and that was like 10k in itself

#

fuuuck

waxen oyster
#

i just faceroll t11s

#

as blood

worthy rose
#

how many gilded do 11's give

normal mist
waxen oyster
#

7 per bountiful

#

3x a week

waxen oyster
#

+20 from map chest

#

that gives a hero piece

#

also gives you the onetime quest

#

of do a key and get 15 gilded and runed

hidden bay
#

@balmy condor are you alive? almost 12h no post from you in here

look his ghost is talking to us right now

waxen oyster
#

i mean yeah you can just the bountiful cap per week is nice

keen spruce
waxen oyster
#

considering you can do a t11 in 5 minutes

#

technically mug/gally on hc give th best crest rate

#

at 15 gilded+runed a week

worthy rose
#

have yall levelled any alts

#

for the next season

waxen oyster
#

You can also 8mask once a week for 11 gildeds

#

but good luck

#

between rogue/priest/dk i think dk is gonna be the best bet next season

#

i just cant believe how complex rogue is compared to dk 💀

#

dk tanking higher keys is probably trickier

or you can actually be a team player and do the mechanic properly and pop abom limb

unless you’re blood then its somewhat ok damage

waxen oyster

dk in general*

worthy rose
#

like surveyors on floodgate

#

also i could have sworn ams used to work like cloak of shadows

#

at last back in cata

#

now it doesnt

#

it absorbs like some damage and then disappears

#

that shits trolled me a couple times

waxen oyster
#

you have to pre ams

#

if you want to avoid debuffs

worthy rose
#

yeah

#

last boss mordretha theatre of pain

keen spruce
#

ye if AMS is up when stuff hits u then it will fizzles some things

worthy rose
#

you can almost just about negate a ghost spawn every time

#

the ams cd is short enough

#

like how rogues can negate a ghost from spawning with cloak of shadows

#

but cloak of skill cd is mad long

waxen oyster
#

yeah dk is kinda afk

#

we live in a weird timeline where havoc is harder than unholy

hidden bay
#

havoc and hard

worthy rose
#

never forget

#

illidan got his cheeks clapped by arthas

waxen oyster
#

More than dk rn

chilly sluice
#

yo, wondering where and when do we send garrotes in the no garrote build?

worthy rose
#

when arthas wasnt even at his peak lich king form

waxen oyster
#

but low bar

worthy rose
#

canonically

#

DK > DH

waxen oyster
#

not backflipping yourself into death

worthy rose
#

the key to garrote is to garotte your main target

#

and rupture the rest

#

mouseover rupture macro will change your life

waxen oyster
#

ngl if you need to ask that question

#

you really shouldnt play the cleave build

chilly sluice
worthy rose
#

are you playing bleed build on mythics

#

or whats the context here

waxen oyster
#

bringing no garrote build into 12s

chilly sluice
#

the newer build that drops talents that buff garrote

waxen oyster
#

Yeah its only good in high high keys

#

like higher than 18

worthy rose
#

realistically

#

you stil want to play bleed up to 17 and maybe even beyond

#

you change to hybrid depending on your team comp at 16+

chilly sluice
worthy rose
#

remember its always team comp dependent

#

bleed build does mad aoe damage as im sure you know

chilly sluice
#

yeah i get all this

worthy rose
#

if you have like an arcane mage or hunter on your team that can make up for your lack of single target

#

just blame them if you cant time keys due to boss

#

its literally their fault

chilly sluice
#

i just want to learn the new build and how it functions

waxen oyster
#

its more of you should know the core of the spec

worthy rose
#

i havent checked what that build is

waxen oyster
#

If doing keys where it actually matters

worthy rose
#

but my guess its like hybrid

#

it sacrifices some aoe for some better single target

waxen oyster
#

its basically the raid build with scent

#

and CT

worthy rose
#

raid build???

#

youre going mad full single target?

#

that seems a bit inting

#

you wont have neough for aoe pulls right

#

and thats the bulk of mythics

waxen oyster
#

Yeah it basically does all its aoe

#

via ct

#

and spatter

worthy rose
#

that seems kind of inting

#

im not sure about that one

worthy rose
#

definitely can see it working on higher keys

waxen oyster
#

so its kind of bad

worthy rose
#

where boss becomes the bottleneck

#

but on lower mythics

waxen oyster
#

outside of high high keys

worthy rose
#

thats straight up inting

#

yeah

#

straight up keybricker behavior LOL

fresh kelp
worthy rose
#

boss doesnt live long enough on lower keys to make full use of that said build

#

it wont be worth it with the sacrifices you make

waxen oyster
#

Not even bosses just

worthy rose
#

i would have a vague guess as to i think

waxen oyster
#

you’d need beefy minibosses

worthy rose
#

15-16 keys territory

waxen oyster
#

to send kbs on

worthy rose
#

is where bossess tart becoming bottlenekcs

#

for the key

#

sub 15 its all trash pulls being the bottleneck

#

and how you do trash management

waxen oyster
#

its probably at least 18

#

with turboboost

worthy rose
#

probably

waxen oyster
#

or your group just sucks

#

Like if your mage is doing 2m on trash

#

average pug mage experience

worthy rose
#

fuck me

#

i swear

#

almost every arcane mage ive met sucks

#

they jus tplay it for the fotm meta

waxen oyster
#

lowkey i think

worthy rose
#

so many 2mil or less mages

waxen oyster
#

if vdh wasnt meta

#

havoc would take assa over in the funnel niche

#

its just better at it

worthy rose
#

if assassination wasnt good

#

rogues would have nothing to stand on

waxen oyster
#

wounded quarry is a superior version

#

of singular focus

worthy rose
#

outlaw is straight up griefing

#

and 99% of sub players suck

#

LOL

#

the amount of times ive griefed my friends playing killing spree

waxen oyster
#

sub has a whole 3-4 players per season

worthy rose
#

get a circle on myself?

#

IM SENDING KILLING SPREE

static glacier
#

wounded quary is super overtuned

waxen oyster
#

and some people who play it when its the best prog spec

worthy rose
#

get frontalled by a boss while linked to teammate? IM SENDING KILLING SPREE

waxen oyster
#

wounded quarry is funny

#

im top dam on minibosses sometimes

#

as veng

worthy rose
#

tanks are in a strange place in tww

#

or maybe thats just wow in general today

#

tanks can do actually so much damage

#

wtf

#

why doesnt everyone just play tank in pvp

#

unkillable and you do damage

waxen oyster
#

bear damage sucks

worthy rose
#

who remembers fucking

#

african turtle cleave in wotlk

waxen oyster
#

i feel like prot warrior is highest dps tank

worthy rose
#

prot warrior some sort of hunter and shaman healer

waxen oyster
#

outside of lucky bloodbeast procs

#

from sanlayn bdk

worthy rose
#

my fucking

#

blood beast

#

it never pops when i need it to

#

the amount of times we finish a trash pull

#

and my blood beast rocks up next to me

waxen oyster
#

fun fact

worthy rose
#

and im like ?????????

#

why didnt you pop

waxen oyster
#

evokers can rescue bloodbeasts

#

out of range

worthy rose
#

you can pop seaforium bombs with dk pet

#

if you comand them to move over it

#

very efficient map clearer

waxen oyster
#

yeah for unholy

#

blood/frost summon ghoul is so weird

#

60second minion 90s cd

worthy rose
#

30second downtime

#

not too bad

#

but again

#

frost is just

#

random bullshit go

#

just press highlighted button

#

kind of like outlaw gameplay

#

except the frost gameplay is just follow the highlighted button

waxen oyster
#

its literally a casino spec

worthy rose
#

outlaw you have two rotations to keep track of

waxen oyster
#

you press your hero talent

worthy rose
#

outlaw is like you do the sinister strike into dispatch rotation as baseline

waxen oyster
#

then hope it makes your ability light up

worthy rose
#

then randomly whip out your glock

waxen oyster
#

to yeet scythes

worthy rose
#

and hit the enemy with your blicky

#

may have to play frost next season

#

i already crafted an unholy weapon

static glacier
#

rip

#

frost is super fun tbh

worthy rose
#

yea it is

#

i played frost levelling

#

very nice front loaded damage

#

no ramp

#

just blast

static glacier
#

I didnt craft a wep, was lucky to get mythic rik sword and mast crit axe from vault

worthy rose
#

howling blast into obliterate

#

shieeet gratz

waxen oyster
#

frost falls into the same camp as ret and fury war

#

hit the shiny button

worthy rose
static glacier
#

frost prio is more nuanced than ret

worthy rose
#

guys if there are arms warriors

#

are there feet warriors

static glacier
#

there are ass rogues HOLY

waxen oyster
#

enhance is pretty entertaining

worthy rose
#

are enhance still as op as they were last season

waxen oyster
#

just forget the fact you will die if you stand in shit

#

classic shaman pov

worthy rose
#

thats rogue too tbh

#

any rando mechanic and you die

static glacier
#

enhance is what rogue could be if we got over the whole 0 visuals to our spells

worthy rose
#

unlike dk you just tank it

#

then death strike

#

who needs to move for mechanics in keys under 15

#

not me

#

just tank it to the face

#

then death strike

#

ezclap

waxen oyster
#

They’re not as op anymore

#

blizz moved them heavily away from spenders being 90% of their damage

worthy rose
#

rip

#

i just remember last season in pvp

#

enhance would just explode someone

#

3v3 or 2v2

waxen oyster
#

primordial storm might just be

worthy rose
#

watch the enhance just 100-0 some guy

waxen oyster
#

the biggest burst aoe nuke

#

on a 30s cd

#

though the tier bonus buffs a spell

#

you dont even take in raid builds

#

make sundering incap targets again ty

#

even on resets

worthy rose
#

all i remember is how much grief potential shamans had in wotlk

#

naxxramas being high up in the air

#

you can blast people out of the dungeon if they were summoning

waxen oyster
#

well every spec has thunderstorm now

worthy rose
#

good old alliance v horde toxicity

#

sadly we cant do that shit anymore

#

nerub ar and liberation of undermine arent really up in the sky

waxen oyster
#

its just a choice node if you want to make thunderstorm a knock up

#

or punt back farther

worthy rose
#

where would you blast people into

waxen oyster
#

generally you take knockup in pve

#

shaman has way more utility nodes in their general tree than rogue though

sullen mural
#

Was really cool when my shaman thought he only has knockup talent

#

and knocked all the adds away on brood prog

#

did not tilt me on try number 100

worthy rose
#

the pugstomper

#

are you guys excited

#

for fucking

#

the darkness from dfc to be a raidboss

viral linden
#

Zee's thug hotline worth a shit?

worthy rose
#

99% sure its gona be a pugstomper

#

nobody uses zees thug hotline

#

dont think its optimal

#

what spec are you playing

#

assassination?

viral linden
#

Indeed

worthy rose
#

you want hoc/signet and seaforium/kezan

#

kezan mostly for raiding tho

#

hoc and signet are esesntially the same thing

waxen oyster
#

outlaw likes hotline i think

#

maybe sub

sullen mural
#

Its ait for outlaw yea

waxen oyster
#

definitely not sin

#

i got a mythic one for os since no one wanted

sullen mural
#

real memers use the whistle for outlaw tho

waxen oyster
#

i got geargrinder week 2

#

for crest saver

worthy rose
#

i cant play outlaw to save my life

#

i got a mythic mainhand fist wep

#

and i still cant play for shit

#

how does one outlaw

#

are substats important?

sullen mural
#

In high keys no idea

#

in weekly 12s just press bte

worthy rose
#

maybe im doing it wrong by using asassination gear for outlaw

#

coz outlaw needs vers and haste right

sullen mural
#

Yeah u want haste

worthy rose
#

im purely crit mastery

sullen mural
#

U want a certain amount of haste depending on build

worthy rose
#

hmm

#

oh well

#

il leave outlaw for later

sullen mural
#

Cuz u get lower gcd depending on haste with AR

waxen oyster
#

you need 20% haste for outlaw else your gcd is too long

worthy rose
#

mythic geargrinder keys and the fist wep from second boss is what i got

#

oh

#

fuck

waxen oyster
#

and mastery is just bad

worthy rose
#

thats prob what im doing wrong

#

too much mastery and like 8% haste

#

fuck

sullen mural
worthy rose
#

too much hassle to recraft gear to the right substats

sullen mural
#

high key outlaw uses HOC

worthy rose
#

i think with a fucktonne of mastery you want a big pp damage offhand right

#

coz the mastery is to have an offhand swing or something

#

or was it a mainhand swing

#

it was ane xtra swing of some weapon

worthy rose
waxen oyster
#

I think end of sl/df i had like

#

35% vers from gear

#

spec super likes vers

worthy rose
#

thats also a flat 17% damgae reduction

#

which is insane in itself too

waxen oyster
#

Actually more

#

you have 5% dr to your main pistol shotted target

worthy rose
#

based

#

oh well assassination is good enough for the keys imdoing

#

if i get one shot by a mechanic i just blame my healer frined

#

not enough healing

sullen mural
#

I mean yeah assa is slightly better than outlaw rn i think

waxen oyster
#

chasing massive sudden demise hits

#

is a thing in itself

cunning ruin
#

Assa needs a st buff

waxen oyster
#

lolno

worthy rose
#

sin single target is insane

#

you just have to talent into it

#

you either go all in single target or you go all in aoe

#

shame you cant do both

waxen oyster
#

It’s honestly fine on st

viscid spear
#

Another one CatChest

sullen mural
#

Its not if you dont talent into it

waxen oyster
#

still do like 1.8 on a pure st boss

sullen mural
#

like if u run pure bleed ur ass is not doing st

waxen oyster
#

its enough to do bosses where you dont have extra targets to fluff up ct damage on the boss

sullen mural
#

I mean yeah u can easily do midish range keys with bleed for sure

#

u do have to go st for higher after tho

waxen oyster
#

yeah like 18/19s or higher

sullen mural
#

I'd take a slight raid buff

#

Doesn't feel great to be assa rogue in raid rn

waxen oyster
#

nah our raid st is good

#

💀

#

idk maybe not on the early bosses

sullen mural
#

Depends what good means

#

think we are right in middle rn

waxen oyster
#

You’re usually near the top

#

on last 3

sullen mural
#

no?

waxen oyster
#

mugzee is a very good sin boss

worthy rose
#

sounds like skill issue

waxen oyster
#

oab well depends how much you can pad on booty

sullen mural
#

assa is actually bottom half on mugzee

#

same for gally

#

especially this late cuz all the adds ust insta die

#

so u dont pad with spatter

waxen oyster
#

Idk i was always near top

#

as soon as it got into execute

worthy rose
#

mugzee assassination is fighting it out with unholy

waxen oyster
#

you jump like 5-6 places on the execute dm set

worthy rose
#

subtlety actually does a little bit better

#

thats a meme

waxen oyster
#

kill times now are

#

also if your guild is cringe and puts you in gaols

worthy rose
#

gally assassination isat the bottom

#

sub is better

sullen mural
#

Yeah mugzee i was looking at outlaw that was on me we are actually midtier for it

#

but gally we are not it

#

adds just insta rip

#

no spatter pad

#

Bandit we are pgood

waxen oyster
#

Yeah i mean its a better prog than farm spec

#

due to spatter

sullen mural
#

Yup

waxen oyster
#

but also too killtime specific

#

getting a boss to die in a dm window

worthy rose
#

ok guys

waxen oyster
#

is massive

worthy rose
#

what ilvl should i stop farming for my DK

sullen mural
#

I mean every classes dmg is killtime specific

worthy rose
#

is 675 or so ilvl enough for next season

sullen mural
#

Either way no reason to bitch since im no longer rogue in s3 prayge

waxen oyster
#

honestly we just jump alot

#

as soon as execute goes into effect

sullen mural
#

Prog always feels bad before u prog last % of the fight

#

cuz ur just chillin waiting for execute

#

and are hugging bottom of the meter

waxen oyster
#

its funny how fury is usually good in raid

#

but beans in dungeons

sullen mural
#

Its aoe still suffering from heroic week nerub

#

im saying it

#

This gally guy has to die today or on reset I dont wanna raid when poe1 comes out

thorn thorn
worthy rose
#

yeah

#

thats what i was thinking

#

the peak dot of damage is so high

#

but the average lines are much lower

sullen mural
#

cuz its rng spec

balmy condor
#

yeah so

worthy rose
#

which means the outlaw gods are god tier

sullen mural
#

not rocket science

balmy condor
#

I mean

worthy rose
#

and the avreage outlawer is doodoo

balmy condor
#

that's not entirely what that means

worthy rose
#

you either die a hero

sullen mural
#

Needs a good player + has rng

balmy condor
#

but yes

worthy rose
#

or you become a cyka blyat

thorn thorn
#

What is that thin bar then

#

Is it not a range of variance?

worthy rose
#

the fat lines are the average percentiles

thorn thorn
#

Or is it something else

worthy rose
#

the skinny lines are the top percentiles

#

and the dot is peak damage right

#

the god of gods

#

the peak

#

the whispy of outlaw

#

the zeross of sub

waxen oyster
#

i mean most specs have heavy rng nowadays

#

proccing blindside every builder on assa feels

sullen mural
#

Yeah its just the combination i think

#

Needs good player, needs perma uptime, needs to highrollish

haughty flicker
thorn thorn
#

Is rng really gonna cause some people to do 800k instead of 2m+ tho

spice surge
#

It means that theres a lot of difference between the worst performers of that spec and the best performers, which is moreso tied to the difficulty of the spec rather than than the RNG

thorn thorn
#

Makes sense

#

So the thin line is just representation of the spec, fat is the average and dot is the peak then

marble hemlock
#

psure in this case it just means theres like about 10% of total parses for outlaw that are just basically boosted runs

thorn thorn
#

Boosted so they can play sin

spice surge
#

Ye theres not a lot of them

thorn thorn
marble hemlock
#

outlaw only has ~200 parses total

thorn thorn
#

Oh so its just a few people drowning the average

marble hemlock
#

so having like 15 of them be boosted runs, skews the results in the graph

thorn thorn
#

Neat

fresh kelp
#

yea so little outlaw parses that the boosted runs don't qualify as outliers

marble hemlock
#

basically, outlaw players are more boosted than any other spec in the game

fresh kelp
sullen mural
thorn thorn
#

Real

waxen oyster
#

I feel most havoc players i see

waxen oyster
#

kind of suck

#

And the few good ones usually have funny personality issues

sullen mural
#

Funny clueless

thorn thorn
#

Being insufferable or unpleasent to deal with?

worthy rose
#

imagine doing 4k damage

#

and then dying

thorn thorn
#

Weird way of saying funny clueless

waxen oyster
thorn thorn
#

And racism

balmy condor
# thorn thorn What is that thin bar then

so the thick bar is 25% to 75% parse, with the grey bar in the middle of the thick bar being the median 50% parse

the thin line is 5% on the minimum to 95% on the maximum. The dot on the far right is the absolute maximum

marble hemlock
#

ah 5%, thought it was 10

balmy condor
#

so like this one

#

a 5% parse is a little over 1.4

#

a 25% parse is a little under 2

thorn thorn
#

A peak is like 2.5

balmy condor
#

50% is a little over 2.2

#

75% is close to 2.5

thorn thorn
#

wait

#

2.9

balmy condor
#

95% is 2.7

thorn thorn
#

I cant read

balmy condor
#

and the max is 2.9

waxen oyster
#

in my experience most annoying award

#

still goes to boomy mains

sullen mural
#

Idk I've been blessed to have some normal boomies

#

for me its mages

thorn thorn
#

Mages

marble hemlock
#

i stand by my statement that this is irrefutable evidence that outlaw is the most boosted spec, and by extension, outlaw players are the most boosted players.

thorn thorn
#

Mage players spawn with a 1/3 chance to be completely unlikeable people

worthy rose
#

nobody can beat my bottom 15% parse on gally

#

fuckin

worthy rose
#

i died right as the fight started coz healer couldnt keep me up

main bridge
#

this chat rn

sullen mural
#

Every fire mage wants to be imfiredup so bad instead of just being normal

balmy condor
#

I'd say for "most rng spec" you can kinda maybe sometimes infer it from the size of the thick bar

#

like this is aug and unholy

#

25% on aug is way way worse, but 75% is almost the same

#

that's just raid rng for the most part

worthy rose
#

me not caring about heroic raiding

marble hemlock
#

id still only do that if it has at least 500 parses tho, anything below that is kinda ass as a handful of individual results skew the results too much

worthy rose
#

me trolling the guild on mythic raiding

thorn thorn
#

Im surprised aug isnt the spec with the lowest since most people playing the spec play it like they have 2 fingers on each hand

waxen oyster
#

Who tf is playing aug

sullen mural
thorn thorn
#

And Fluup
