incredible

#

honestly who thought it was a good idea to let talents reduce your dmg

oak eagle
#

blizzard

#

they hate fun

bronze pike
#

r u back back?

balmy condor
#

no

vestal cliff
#

everytime my ST dmg gets decreased with this talent, i want an automated angry email written to Blizzard HQ

red schooner
#

I'm half asleep and uncaffeinated, I'm not getting how this is a big loss

#

Reread it like 5 times and I'm just not getting it

royal lantern
bronze pike
royal lantern
#

aka the "no enemys around" dmg IS the basic dmg

balmy condor
#

you have 2 targets

#

your envenom crits

#

you caustic the envenom

#

and the fate intertwined fucks off and hits the off-target

red schooner
balmy condor
#

so that's just objectively worse

#

3 targets

#

you envenom, it crits

#

you spatter the envenom

#

the fate intertwined hits literally every target except your main target

red schooner
#

Okay, that makes sense

#

Thanks.

#

Legit reread it like 8 times and it wasn't clicking in my head

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

the only time fate intertwined procs caustic

#

is when you have 1 target

red schooner
shell plaza
#

cursed

#

🫣

red schooner
#

This shows how much thought I've given FB this expansion

potent moon
#

wait, doesnt the duplicated damage to main target also count as cosmic and therefore doesn't even count then?

red schooner
#

Cos I legit don't know what half of it does

potent moon
#

(even tho it doesnt matter with 1 target)

rotund oak
grim jay
#

Including nature

potent moon
#

oh wow ok, thought it was gonna be smth like arcane and shadow

balmy condor
#

nature physical arcane and holy I think

#

or something like that

potent moon
#

what a combo

balmy condor
#

nature/physical is the important part

#

so that it works with caustic and blade flurry

potent moon
#

makes sense then

#

apart from the way that talent works X)

grim jay
balmy condor
#

point is

#

it works with blade flurry and caustic

potent moon
grim jay
#

Think Chaos has all types, always need to look that shit up aswell

balmy condor
#

yes

#

chaos is all

runic hinge
#

I'd run that

potent moon
#

i never tried fatebound, does that come without the issue of not being able to spontaneously swap targets without dmg loss like deathstalker?

balmy condor
#

no

#

it's just passive damage on finishers

potent moon
#

huh, might be smth for lots of ppl even being 4% behind

lusty narwhal
#

Pure ST only too

balmy condor
#

it's 4% behind if they flip the logic on a talent that makes fatebound inherently unplayable

#

it's not currently 4% behind

lusty narwhal
#

Wild to me that they haven’t done ANY tuning on it

potent moon
#

oooh right, forgot

#

rn it's 6% loss per additional target, my bad

keen pecan
#

I miss orange whispyr pepehands

rotund oak
#

idk how far it was ago when i was saying we will be playing deathstalker but taking a step back and watch all this is

#

weird

balmy condor
#

no fixing fatebound

#

is baffling

rotund oak
#

ive havent logged on ptr or anything dunno about sets n stuff but onyl from reading some wowhead stuff

#

DS looks better yet again

#

even if FB is fixed

#

they kinda need to gigabuff it i think

balmy condor
#

I think objectively speaking the fatebound tier set is much better than deathstalker

#

like MUCH better

rotund oak
#

then we should expect a shift according to that

balmy condor
#

fatebound is entirely playable if they just made it not garbage in aoe

rotund oak
#

what can u do for fatebound for aoe idk

balmy condor
#

literally just fix fate intertwined and get rid of the stupid debuff on delivered doom

#

I just went over this

rotund oak
#

but since its blizzard we are talking

#

they prefer to rework and gigabuff spatter

#

coz something something reasons something

opaque jacinth
#

it probably doesn't help that they're restricted by balancing delivered doom around outlaw as well

slate crown
#

This plays a custom sound as well, yes? It must, yes? If it doesn't you have some splaining to do

#

holy fuck my discord was behind where I opened to

rotund oak
#

behind where i opened

#

trying to decipher

balmy condor
red schooner
#

Okay that makes me feel slightly better

vestal cliff
#

I really hope Blizz does something. I would love to play the Fatebound Tset

shell plaza
#

i never liked deathstalkers mark and managing it, if fatebound becomes meta - im a happy guy

haughty flicker
#

they'll change nothing and we'll be playing deathstalker forever

#

it do be like that

rotund oak
#

yup

haughty flicker
#

i used to shit on fatebound but fuck if i havent gotten tired of this mark bullshit

rotund oak
#

could be like that

#

coz blizzard

potent moon
rotund oak
haughty flicker
#

when does that even happen

rotund oak
haughty flicker
rotund oak
#

''shiv compresses mark to two stacks now,more spaming more dmg''

balmy condor
#

yes

shell plaza
balmy condor
#

the insane cope

shell plaza
#

remember when compo points were on the target and not on your character ? imagine if they make the mark your buff and not a target debuff

balmy condor
#

you mean the thing people suggested in alpha?

shell plaza
#

noone thought of it im sure

#

:^)))

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

original thought

subtle tundra
#

hi whispyr

#

its monday

balmy condor
#

true

#

I can always trust you to know what day of the week it is varas

#

I love that about you

subtle tundra
#

thanks man its good to have someone reliable close

haughty flicker
#

god i wish i could do that

rotund oak
#

as in being close

#

or reliable

#

or both

runic hinge
haughty flicker
#

no being able to tell what day of the week it is consistantly

rotund oak
#

ok enough trolling,going back to work lul

red schooner
#

That boss was bad enough without having to deal with the mark

gilded rune
#

Does sin not rely on a lot of ilvl

#

feel like my output is really high for 660

#

with bad trinks

balmy condor
#

that's not really a thing

gilded rune
#

or maybe its the turbo boost gear

balmy condor
#

ilvl differences between specs would only show over like

#

100 ilvl

#

not like 20

gilded rune
#

well I mean I feel like at the beginning of the season on my arms warrior I wasnt able to achieve 4m output until way later

#

and im already there on my rogue

#

around 650

#

I apologize if it sounds dumb im still fairly new to sin

balmy condor
#

yeh I mean idk

runic hinge
#

Sin blasts overall

balmy condor
#

it is what it is I guess

runic hinge
#

It will get better with ilvl but since it always does damage in aoe without cds it just looks good on details

visual sun
#

Whispyr back. We are so back.

#

Serious tho. Glad ur back

brave stump
#

Whispyr glad you're back, is it normal i run out of energy in single target? Do i need more haste?

balmy condor
#

ty

brave stump
#

🪤

drowsy hollow
#

in general, how long does it normally take to get a lucky fatebound coin?

balmy condor
#

you got a 50/50 on opener

haughty flicker
#

so never for me

balmy condor
#

after that it's just an rng fiesta

drowsy hollow
#

oof

balmy condor
#

next patch it's just guaranteed

drowsy hollow
#

really? Hard to read the talents to understand why but yeah, has to otherwise that tier set is rough

haughty flicker
#

the 2p will make it guaranteed in opener

#

another edge case plus another coin for each one

balmy condor
#

with 2 piece the worst case opener is envenom before dm to 1-0, dm is 3-2, kb is 5-4, then cold blood to 6-5, vanish cold blood to 8-7

drowsy hollow
#

oh, the vanish gives you lucky coin and procs the cosmic damage?

balmy condor
#

what

#

the vanish double flips

drowsy hollow
#

I guess I'm misunderstanding the 8-7 sorry.

balmy condor
#

yeah I mean that gives you the lucky coin

#

but it's just the flips

#

8-7 is heads/tails

drowsy hollow
#

I am misunderstanding, I thought the edge cases were adding up to somehow proc Fateful Ending twice at once.

balmy condor
#

no

#

it's just guaranteeing you get fateful ending

drowsy hollow
#

Wouldn't Inevitabile End already do that? I get why use the vanish, it's still opener and lust and all that but it does feel extra.

#

RIP Destiny Defined though.

bronze pike
balmy condor
#

well how would you get to 7 without the tier

drowsy hollow
#

My confusion is why the vanish for double jeopardy is necessary.

#

At least I thought we were talking about the next season.

balmy condor
#

it's not neccessary but the alternative is playing destiny defined

drowsy hollow
#

Can destiny defined actually hit 7 for sure cause my brain is thinking the cold blood matches are needed, the talents read weird though.

balmy condor
#

correct

#

without the cold blood match you'd go 1-0, 3-2, 5-4, and then run out of steam

#

and you'd have to vanish and hit the 50/50

drowsy hollow
#

Inevitabile End affects two finishers correct, so the vanish is just extra with the new tier correct? Also is the spelling on purpose for that cause I don't get what bile has to do with fatebound lol.

haughty flicker
#

wat

balmy condor
#

the name is a typo

haughty flicker
#

wait it is just typoed huh

#

thats very funny

drowsy hollow
#

Inevitabile isn't a word so I'm assuming its a pun with bile.

haughty flicker
#

well done blizzard

balmy condor
#

but I don't understand what you mean by the vanish

#

vanish flips 2 coins

#

cold blood matches

royal lantern
#

does cold blood imply that all rogues are reptiles

haughty flicker
#

maybe fish

drowsy hollow
#

I guess I just don't see how without the vanish you only end up with 6 matches.

balmy condor
#

without the vanish you would get to 7-6

drowsy hollow
#

but the 7 means you've proc'd no?

balmy condor
#

correct

#

Idk what's confusing

drowsy hollow
#

You're making it sound like you needed the 8-7, my bad.

balmy condor
#

no

#

you don't

drowsy hollow
#

Sorry for my confusion. I'm guessing there's not a cap to how many matches can stack but odds are just really against you for more than 8?

balmy condor
#

if you do nothing but envenom you have a 2/3rds chance to match

#

so I guess off of the 8-7 you'd have like a 25% chance to get to 11

#

and then like 19% to get to 12

#

12% to get to 13

#

etc etc

drowsy hollow
#

neat

#

The Deathstalker Set making you absolutely want to shiv just before 20% is kinda funky.

balmy condor
#

before which 20%

drowsy hollow
#

20% enemy HP, so mostly bosses I presume.

balmy condor
#

what does 20% have to do with anything

drowsy hollow
#

Fatal Intent?

balmy condor
#

fatal intent doesn't do damage

#

I mean it does

#

but it really doesn't

drowsy hollow
#

Okay, sorry for the weird questions. Part of me would love to play my void elf rogue more in 11.2 cause thematics, but have been very causal cause pure dps is a rough pug life.

bronze pike
#

i like to pretend my be outlaw is still a void elf

#

and she has no swords

#

just guns

#

but not like a crappy hunter

balmy condor
#

it's all good

#

fatal intent reads like it should do something

#

and then it does less than fan of knives in single target

drowsy hollow
#

pity

#

I still want a massive deathstalker rework in Midnight

visual sun
#

Renown hot sauce coming after fatal intent

drowsy hollow
#

Like at least do something by giving it a unique poison for Sub and Sin. I know that's basically Hunt Them Down, but at least it'd feel cooler being applied, lol.

red schooner

if we time it with shiv!

#

#

If it wasn't bugged and didn't stop stacking at 30% it would do damage, promise guys

should i cover a single KB without a DM with 2x shiv? or only last 8 sec

balmy condor
#

depends on if you sent a dry shiv or not

#

Does someone know if caustic spatter is taken into account for singular focus ? does 5% of spatter is redirected on main target every time ?

royal lantern
#

it spatters once iirc

#

no looping stuff or anything like that

ancient tangle
#

yes singular focus doesn't spatter so it doesn't loop

royal lantern
#

you do dmg->spatter cleaves->singular focus does part of that dmg again as plague dmg->that cleaves again and then it "ends"

#

im pretty sure it does?

subtle tundra
#

meowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

ancient tangle
#

i saw on this channel that it doesn't

marble hemlock
royal lantern
#

@balmy condor does Singular focus plague dmg spatter or not

#

im really not sure rn

balmy condor
#

yes

subtle tundra
marble hemlock
#

he has them perma on

ancient tangle
# balmy condor yes

ok so 5% of spatter is redirected on main target and it stop there isn't it ?

balmy condor
#

singular focus damage spatters once and does not return as singular focus damage, spatter counts for singular focus

subtle tundra
#

infinite damage hack

ancient tangle
#

ho ok

#

sorry Tryan you were right then

#

and thx Whispyr 🙂

dont get hit by coins

marble hemlock
#

ye that too

royal lantern
#

and bait coins correct

marble hemlock
#

but its just a boss where we cant do shit on that is "unique" to rogue

royal lantern
#

thats all you do as melee

silent compass
#

We stacking in the middle now

marble hemlock
#

just gotta wait for the ranged to not be shit

silent compass
#

Oh so i really dont have much to do

lethal arrow
#

Rupture some coin adds

red schooner
#

And then wait for execute phase where your full power can be revealed

lethal arrow
#

Vanish some fixates

silent compass
royal lantern
lethal arrow
#

Bait some coins

#

Yes

silent compass
#

Ohhh thanks thats amazing

royal lantern
lethal arrow
#

It just goes on someone else

royal lantern
#

and not when multiple people are inside the adds allready, you vanish and it targets one of them

silent compass
#

Aity

royal lantern
lethal arrow
#

Vanish the moment they spawn and u get fixated

#

If ur kiting and u get fixated, u can just kite with ur team

silent compass
#

Ok so almost all i need to do is to stack in the middle

lethal arrow
#

I assume ur strat is to stack with team

#

Our original strat pre nerf was stack as adds spawn and do like a half circle kite around the room

#

Since they changed it, we just let the adds spawn and cleave after baiting coins

#

Hello, Any tips to do more average damage on oab progress? last night i average 3mill on 30 pulls. We got down p2 twice but died before.

red schooner
#

Rupture snipe adds, and just try to maximise the rolling coin debuff as much as you can really

vestal cliff
#

i love rupture sniping. Especially on mugzee it just feels sooooo good. Adds are just walking thistle teas for me

last phase on oab is wild yeah

#

so much less sexecute time

#

I started this tier when my guild was killing that boss. I got invited and we oneshotted it and then oneshotted gally

subtle tundra

#

Fy varas

subtle tundra
#

everyone wants to

normal mist
#

I know, me too

#

But honestly I got to the raid and they explained how I wouldn't fuck the fight up and that's it

#

I didn't know about the coins buff xD

#

I didn't really care about this tier

#

Didn't like it

nova kelp
#

the MOG tho

#

I quite liked mythic this tier except for stix and sprocket

#

stix coz it's dogshit and sprocket because my guild ultra sucks at dance bosses

red schooner
#

Stix was great for me

normal mist
#

Never cared to parse again

good morning guys! New Rogue here. picking up the class for next season as it is the one class my team never has. atm im really liking the play style of Assassination but I feel like with the current built I am always starved for energy. I spread garrote and rupture when i can to generate more energy. Am I just spending energy too quickly?

royal lantern
#

!Design

prisma monolithBOT
#

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. As a burst spec our damage is mainly loaded into Deathmark/Shiv and massive Envenoms through stacking multiple nature damage buffs such as Lingering Darkness, Shiv, Darkest Night, Amplifying Poison, and more. This comes with the natural downside of our damage suffering outside of these windows, in part due to the designed lack of energy slowing us down.

Because of this, there is only one minor (0.3%) min-max with energy, which is pooling 3-4 seconds into an upcoming Kingsbane. Ideally this would put you at around 50-60% energy before you enter your Kingsbane, which is more than enough energy alongside thistle tea. Outside of that, spam Envenom and just accept that you will run out of energy. There is nothing you can do to not run out of energy. Playing around Envenom uptime also is not relevant anymore, as Twist the knife allows for two stacks at a time, which reduces wasted uptime dramatically. Without twist the knife, wasting uptime is unavoidable.

I'm excited to see how bad their versions of weakauras turns out

to be honest i prefer stat procs as more cool than random lightning that pulls mobs you ccd and destealths you

wet spire
#

Or ...get this they fix it lol

red schooner
#

It'd be nice if they fix it, but yeah

wet spire
#

Yea and that's the exciting part about their weakauras lol

#

I just find the stats boring is all it's been just stats for everything they have released and it lame af

after the proof that weak aura has too much power, some guys managed to change the one button to remove the 0.5 second delay which made their one button smoked)

If you don't stop this addon in the future it will become anything

What are we using 3rd dinars for?

red schooner
#

For me, mythic jastors

waxen oyster
#

eye for me

nova kelp
#

mythic jastors was a bigger increase for me than trinket upgrades so that was my no.1

#

I can't use the eye lol

#

even gally doesn't last long enough for it to matter

waxen oyster
#

Well its hoc then jastor for me

#

nothing else worth buying

nova kelp
#

heroic jastors is a pretty good ring

red schooner
nova kelp
#

but hey, if you still have fight lengths worth an eye go nuts

waxen oyster
#

i've had heroic jastor for awhile

nova kelp
#

I had no luck on heroic jastors through prog

#

I don't think we even saw one drop till like mythic kill no.4

#

even after all the heroic farming

waxen oyster
#

got a normal one from tw quest

#

then from vault 2 weeks later

#

now i have a spare jc jastor in bag from dungeon quest

#

warrior alt saw it drop 3rd hc gally and won roll

#

Eye for next tier xla

waxen oyster

Literally only thing to buy really

nova kelp
#

meh

#

even next tier I'm not expecting the eye to be worth it

#

not many raid fights are long enough

#

thankfully

broken lion
#

Are we just using last dinar on weapon or what?

buoyant herald
#

What weapon would you need to use dinar on

nova kelp

for me the last dinar is the fucking pacemaker lol, I have the worst vault luck in existence

at least what my choices were

red schooner

There's a droptimiser option for it

broken lion
runic hinge
#

House of cards

broken lion
#

ohh

nova kelp
#

if I already had a pacemaker, I'd probably grab the mugzee knuckles lol

runic hinge
#

You can do signet and pacemaker if you don’t mythic raid

broken lion
#

Yeah I mean I guess Im just simming but I think my trinkets are set

red schooner
#

So, send that and go from there. There ain't a one size fits all option really

nova kelp
#

pacemaker >>>>> eye for me

#

even for raid

red schooner
#

Depends on what you've got already

broken lion
#

myth pace and signet and I have a H kezan in my bag

#

and H jastor

red schooner
#

Mythic bee trinket it is garf_sit

broken lion
#

So Ill just sim but idk, I SHOULD get dagger from myth boss but like.

#

I just dont

buoyant herald
#

I’m not convinced eye is worth unless you have no other options, guess it might go hard for prog next tier as you get close to kills

#

Or you play keys with kindly tanks

nova kelp
#

eye for me doesn't even sim equal to pacemaker until I hit 8 mins

buoyant herald
#

Exactly

nova kelp
#

if it takes that long to hit par, I'm literally never bothering

buoyant herald
#

Anyway if you’re out of options you should just take the clear best choice remaining

#

Mugzee knuckles for outlaw

nova kelp
#

that would be the choice for me if I already had a myth pace

red schooner
broken lion
#

Yeah I might take knuckles since I wanna go back to outlaw next season

waxen oyster
#

Idk ill probably buy eye since nothing else worth after hoc and jastor

buoyant herald
#

KS got fixed it’s time to blast again

#

to be fair, gun fu is pretty cool

waxen oyster
#

my last “upgrades” would be

#

to replace my crafted neck bracers or cloak

#

with 684s

#

but one has to be crafted for armor patch

red schooner
#

Myth jastors fit me for sure. Not simmed it but like, it's gotta be

nova kelp
#

jastors is yuge

red schooner
#

I'll send the sim Wednesday just in case

waxen oyster
#

hc to myth jastor for me was like

red schooner
#

But I can't see it losing

waxen oyster
#

12k on sim?

nova kelp
#

the jastor upgrade beat the hoc by a long margin for me

waxen oyster
#

my dh alt apparently

nova kelp
#

mind going cyrces to myth jastor

waxen oyster
#

hc jastor is worse than crafed ring

waxen oyster
#

so im safe on that

red schooner
waxen oyster
#

its a bit funny how dh is like that

double crafted ring is my bis

# royal lantern get out nerd

Idk its hard bc I can play assassination on 150-200 ping if Im playing in US servers which is really the only thing I like about it

i took HoC so gearing at the beginning of next season is a bit less cringe

can imagine that early gearing where stats are all over the place will be a bit oof with Signet which kinda needs mastery to function

buoyant herald
#

Good point

red schooner
waxen oyster
#

i mean if you have access to hoc no point buying signet

red schooner
#

At least you have the 90 second trinket from the get go

royal lantern
#

i got it in vault

waxen oyster
#

i got pacemaker in vault

#

that one aswell

#

in week3 or something

#

YOOOOOO

i got mechagon dagger week 2

Gonna use this conversation to remind people of the pvp trinket on champ track from conquest vendor, crit with big agi on use 1min cd

#

That’ll be available again next season for a real easy one to grab

royal lantern
#

i play outlaw before i touch PvP for gear

buoyant herald
#

I don’t PvP lol I farm war crates while afk

waxen oyster
#

week 1 on the top

#

and each after

buoyant herald
#

That makes sense. Last season, after a week of delves, then after key farming

waxen oyster
#

i got a pacemaker in 2nd floodgate i did

#

was using mechanocore though since it simmed better

buoyant herald
#

I got signet in my first vault as my only option I’d done that week 🙃

waxen oyster
#

i used badge our first m vexie

molten willow
#

is this what I should be running for higher key levels?

#

This is whats on wowhead guide so I assume so but just wanted to ask

nova kelp
#

what's "higher"

molten willow
#

like 14 keyus up

royal lantern
#

yes

nova kelp
#

I mean you could just keep running bleed too

broken lion
#

Yeah simming dinars I get nothing besides Myth jastor which I cant yet

royal lantern
#

oh wait thats not bleed

#

yeha bleed works until the end lol

runic hinge
#

That is just regular hybrid

nova kelp
#

honestly I feel like the best answer is
"If you feel like you still need to ask, at all, the answer is bleed"

buoyant herald
#

That’s literally what the pin says isn’t it

tall rose
#

What posions are i using for St and for AOE

coral ibex
#

the ones you talent into

#

!poison

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

nova kelp
#

i've seen people running instant with the bleed build too, which COULD be the question at hand

coral ibex
nova kelp
#

please do not do this

runic hinge
coral ibex
#

sounds dumb

buoyant herald
#

Like you can’t even put points in your tree without taking deadly

nova kelp
#

Yeah, it's people not actually reading how their stuff works, but it's a thing that happens

buoyant herald
#

“Is caustic spatter bugged? I can’t get it to apply”

nova kelp
#

exactly

buoyant herald
#

Did you read the tooltip

#

lol no what am I some kind of literate nerd

nova kelp
#

but you gota remember that a LOT of players literally just copy paste builds, read rotation, and copy. A lot of the time they don't necessarily LEARN what does what and why until MUCH LATER

buoyant herald
#

If ever

#

But yeah you gotta find some sympathy for the uneducated sometimes

nova kelp
#

So some just copy paste the bleed build in, and apply instant poison because ??? reasons? maybe they think it LOOKS better? idk

buoyant herald
#

I don’t think they think at all. I think they just click the first poison on the dropdown

nova kelp
#

it's the same thing often with hunters. if you ever care to look at what lower performing peeps do sometimes you'll see bm hunters just pumping zero kill commands
YOU think but... why?
They think - why press 2 buttons when this one still does damage?

#

Which naturally sends your mind into a WILD spiral of questions and confusion, but they're not thinking that deep

#

although now you can just tell them "use 1 button assistant :)"

buoyant herald
#

Will that apply the correct poison though? 😂

nova kelp
#

ACTUALLY... I think it does?\

#

don't quote me on that, but I'm pretty sure it forces deadly application if you don't have anything

#

like it's not GOOD by any stretch, but it's definitely not attrocious

elfin halo
#

How does supercharger impact the "envenoms with max cp" part of Darkest Night? Do you have to actually fill the cp bar to trigger the new stacks of deathstalker's mark, or do the bonus 2-3 cp count towards max cp?

runic hinge
#

You should just use normal finisher rules

#

5+ and 7 for darkest night

elfin halo
#

ok, so the supercharged CP don't count towards the total for the darkest night mechanic

elfin halo
#

ok, then 4-5 cp should trigger it depending on if you have superchager (and possibly forced induction)

turbid sandal
#

yeah it will

elfin halo
#

thanks!

It will but its better to not care about the superchargers

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.

#

listen up gym rat, that build aint no steroids ok

#

u run it for high keys 17-22s

#

otherwise its a big dps loss

molten willow
#

hmm whhat makes it dps loss

#

this new bujild is odd but I am still trying to learn it for when I get to that levfel but at the same time it feels odd as hell

winged sun
#

fights in 16s and below, bosses live too short making bleed build decent on st on them because the fights dont last 10 years

molten willow
#

right

#

that makes senes

balmy condor
#

Sudden demise is also just a flat damage

molten willow
#

but this other build

winged sun
#

and bleed build does way more aoe in low keys

worn geyser
#

also prio targets live like 10 less envenoms and its annoying af to resetup spatter fast enough before pack dies

balmy condor
#

More mob health = sudden demise doing the same damage = less % big good

winged sun
#

sudden demise doesn't even proc in higher keys sometimes

#

cuz too much hp

#

they die too fast because everyone's pumping 20-30m dps

#

wwwwwwwwwwwww

#

oops

balmy condor
#

But yeh, if you’re desperate like a housewife with a traveling husband and just NEEDD THAT BOSS DAM SO BAD

molten willow
#

gotcha ok

balmy condor
#

Then you play cleave

molten willow
#

so cleave if I need that boss damn badly just running cleave

balmy condor
#

You have to scratch at your neck like a crack addict when you talk about needing more single target as well

#

That’s a requirement

winged sun
#

i've seen bleed do rly good st dmg on very low keys

#

now that everyone is geared up

molten willow
#

hmm ill work on crack

worn geyser
#

and start posting cinderbrew first pull details pictures from the 1\10 pull u top dps over the uhdk

balmy condor
#

True true

molten willow
balmy condor
#

Yes

molten willow
#

gotcha

#

So the cleave build does use supercharger and forced induction becaues I think the guide had different talents running

winged sun
#

idk what guide ur looking at

#

but

#

wowhead has everything cuh

molten willow
#

oops

#

The Raid cleave one on the wowhead guid yes?

balmy condor

The.. RAID cleave?

#

For RAID?

molten willow
balmy condor

RAID?

I think that m+ is different from raid just a hunch tho

molten willow
#

im so confused 😭

balmy condor
#

Is raid mythic+?

molten willow
#

nooo

balmy condor

Then probably not that build

if u scroll down a lil it shows the m+ build variations
