holy shit legion was horrible in so many ways for a long time

earnest remnant
#

like last half of it was amazing

warm vortex
#

What was the best expac in your opinion try

earnest remnant
#

but the first half

#

was torture

halcyon flame
#

I enjoyed legion because I got crit leggo as my first legendary UL

warm vortex
#

I've played 4 (including tww)
but only like
2 properly

#

So i don't rlly have a choice

earnest remnant

i think

#

it was called

drifting cloud
#

did crit lego even exist in first patch

#

wasnt that added in like nh

normal mist
#

If I recall correctly it was added in the start(?)

#

But again it was way too long ago to remember

drifting cloud
warm vortex
#

But yea my fav is DF but i rlly don't have a choice
Started like, on the last day of legion
through the entierty of BFA i barely had a functioning brain
Same with Sl tbh
and it was only like, mid DF i started thinking like a normal human being

#

So the only one i experianced that much was DF
even still, i only do like
AoTC and a tiny bit of mythic raiding
and i try and push M+ but it's mainly low rio pugging

earnest remnant

i was actually following Seli alot back then,was hanging around on his stream alot

#

pretty fun times

royal lantern
#

bigtime m+ pusher seli

earnest remnant
#

he even quit last season

royal lantern
earnest remnant
#

assa didn't live

warm vortex
earnest remnant
#

cuz it didn't like stacking vers like outlaw did

#

it did do a bit more dmg

warm vortex
#

Tbh season 1s dungeon pool was

#

It was one of the pools of all time

rotund oak
#

sin was very strong ST,not mage strong but did alot of dmg

#

more than the pirate

#

but u needed haste gear for exsang tech

earnest remnant
#

outlaw just ran around with 70+% vers

#

same with havoc

rotund oak
#

yeah around there

earnest remnant
#

so you just played "proctect the mage" comp

rotund oak
#

yeah we pretty much supported the combust mage

#

stupid unhinged spec

#

insane dam

warm vortex

Still my fav bot command of all time

can someone give me a reason why signet is ran over hoc, it looks like hoc gives more stat

grim jay

They are pretty close to eachother

#

Signet has more duration

I personally run funhouse lens so i can easily fit inside a mailbox

I'd love to not have to run signet next season

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

/cast Shiv 
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null

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

prisma cypress
#

why is auto-use tea a thing

#

who asked for this

iron carbon
#

Dont speak about it

#

Or Whispyr will go crazy again

#

Insult your whole family for 3 generation

#

And alt+f4 the discord

obtuse robin
#

is it possible to have for example a mouseover garrote macro that also works on current target?

prisma cypress
#

i would think so

lunar pond
#

[@mouseover] garrote; garrote

golden loom
#

something simpler probably works also yeah but this just happens to be what I have kekman

lunar pond
#

Or that, not in game

obtuse robin

#

#showtooltip Garrote
/cast [target=mouseover,exists,harm,nodead][harm,nodead]Garrote

obtuse robin
#

#

You'll have tea whenever you need it

except i don’t, because i spam mutilate like a noob and waste my mastery buff outside of cooldowns pepehands

/cast Shiv 
/castsequence reset=5 Thistle Tea, null

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

golden loom
#

use that and ur teas that could get auto-cast will be on cd garf

prisma cypress
#

it stays on cooldown already lol

#

just gotta be more disciplined i guess

royal lantern
#

how

#

kb is 1min

#

dm is 2min

#

tea is 1min

#

you literally always have it with your cds

normal mist
#

Also we aren't really using tea for the mastery

#

But for the energy

jade abyss
#

The tip

obtuse robin
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
prisma cypress
royal lantern
#

???

#

mate sorry, but read what i said again

#

fight starts

#

you use cds + tea

#

1min mater, you use kb and get tea back

#

1min later, you use all cds and get tea back

#

you literally CANT have no charge for it

prisma cypress
#

i guess that’s true for one charge, yeah

royal lantern
#

how many do you need lol

#

during DM you have endless energy

prisma cypress
#

ideally i’d have two to cover dm, right?

royal lantern
#

why?

#

what is there to Cover

#

tea is for energy

red schooner
prisma cypress
#

and if it’s just for energy and the mastery doesn’t matter, then it seems like kind of a waste to burn a charge immediately with shiv when i’m likely at high energy anyway

#

but that macro does make it easy to manage. i’ll give it a try

white mulch
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
royal lantern
#

like, the mastery part never mattered

#

if we had infinite energy, we would not play tea

#

it was always about the energy

prisma cypress
#

the mastery may not be good enough on its own, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it doesn’t matter

royal lantern
#

and the entire thing why the auto usage doesnt matter is because of 2 reasons:

1, it always lines up with your CDs by default anyway

2, if you auto proc it, it means you where low on energy and now have energy again to use abilitys, and using abilitys is always more dmg then NOT using abilitys

#

does the auto usage feel kinda bad? yes sure, i agree and think it should be a choice node

#

but it literally doesnt matter

#

100% minmaxed Tea usage with never letting it autocast at all, and not even macroing tea and just letting the game autoconsume it all the time is a 0,3% difference lol

prisma cypress
#

if that’s true, then i don’t feel so bad lol

royal lantern
#

and macro tea with shiv is allready near 100% minmaxed gameplay

grim jay
royal lantern
#

^ that aswell

#

like, if you want a really simple reason why the energy is important and not the mastery

#

whats more dmg, using tea so you get 8% more dmg on 1 or 2 envenoms

#

or getting a additonal envenom out

#

(which has the 8% buff aswell then)

potent lance
#

is cuastic spatter changed?

#

from season 1 i mean

royal lantern
#

no?

red schooner
#

There's a slight change

potent lance
#

im only get cuastic spatter when i came out of invis for soem seconds

red schooner
#

On the bosses with bigger hitboxes the range gets tweaked to include bits around the rogue

potent lance
royal lantern
#

are you mixing up talents

grim jay
#

Most definitely

potent lance
royal lantern
#

spatter is the poison cleave you apply on a target

potent lance
grim jay
#

Spatter has nothing to do with stealth

royal lantern
#

but it has nothing to do with stealth?

grim jay
#

And you dont get it either

royal lantern
#

you apply spatter by using mutilate or ambush on a enemy that has rupture

potent lance
grim jay
potent lance
#

see its off

royal lantern
#

mate

#

apply rupture

#

and press mutilate

potent lance
#

i did

#

but still just ahve it for 9 sec

#

then i dont get it

royal lantern
#

you mutilate again?

potent lance
#

y

red schooner
royal lantern
#

its a short duration debuff ON YOUR TARGET

red schooner
#

Gotta muti again

royal lantern
#

not a buff on yourself

@balmy condor scam shit, do your job janitor

#

royal lantern
#

potent lance
#

afetr this i use everything

royal lantern
#

one of you

potent lance
#

mutilate and things

#

but i dont get cuastic spatter anymore

grim jay
royal lantern
#

ping him

grim jay
#

No he always does things to me

royal lantern
#

@shrewd night meow, somebody sending shady links

shrewd night
potent lance
#

so its a bug or im missing something? xD

royal lantern
#

well, caustic spatter has 3 requirments

have weapon poisons active

have rupture on your target

use mutilate/ambush

#

thats it

grim jay
#

You could make a vid for people to look at

#

Or even a log

royal lantern
#

it has nothing to do with stealth

#

^

hollow frost
#

Just make sure deadly poison is on the target, rupture is on the target, press mut/ambush

potent lance
#

and if im doing all fo that and it didnt apply the caustic spaatter on target ?

potent lance
#

i can log the dummy targets?

royal lantern
#

ofc

hollow frost
#

Ignore the little weakaura picture you are sending a pic of and look at the debuffs. If the debuff and weakaura don't line up correctly then fix the weakaura.
As for logging target dummies generally the same way you log everything else

potent lance
#

okk i got a log let me uplaod

#

check this

#

caustic spatter is on only for 9 sec

#

after that i dont ahve it at all

red schooner
#

You casted mutilate once in that time

potent lance
#

all my buffs are up i ahve poisona nd i did mutilate

red schooner
#

Unless I'm misreading something

scarlet orbit
#

You didnt mutilate in that log after the first apply

potent lance
#

oh let me do another log i think i turn the log so fast xD

red schooner
#

Like, you're not mutilating, you poisoned knifed twice but that won't apply spatter

potent lance
#

ahahhaha

#

i got it

#

my levels did changed after invis

#

my mutilate is on 3 keybind in invis and it get changed after invis

#

xDDD

red schooner
#

Well, at least its fixed now which is the main thing

potent lance
#

haha yeah ty ❤️

#

i was liek wtf why im only egt cuASTIC SPATTER in invis is there anythign changed after seaosn1 xD

scarlet orbit
#

The answer is your keybinds 😄

potent lance
#

xD yeah

half tartan
#

Do you guys still keep ambush on its own bind 🤣🤣

#

I got it on Q

potent lance
#

xD i ahve it on V

half tartan
#

Literally onlu press it once on opener

potent lance
#

i use Q for stealth xD

#

anyway what is best choise for trinekt rn Mythic signet or hero/myth hosue of cards?

#

since the CDs not line with house of card i think signet is better right?

#

or am i wrong?

scarlet orbit
#

Mythic signet is better the hero hoc but its pretty much the same then myth hoc.
So if you dont have access to mythic version of hoc you go for signet otherwise its pretty w/e if you not also play sub

rigid tartan
#

are y'all macroing House of Cards to Kingsbane or Deathmark or have it on a separate bind to pop with Kingsbane in DM windows?

#

I'm thinking best use case is always on the kingsbane during Deathmark. I'm not sure there is a high possibility to miss House of Cards active for the last kingsbane tick if popping it with Deathmark in the global before Kingsbane

fallow canopy

Macro to Dm and forget

Damn things get freaky here in the middle of the night

#

Theres even some xalatoes flying around

main bridge
#

yeah this is the freakiest channel in the server

dense cedar
#

Most calm and normal discord channel in the world

rigid tartan
#

doesnt that result in often missing house of cards active buff on last kingsbane tick?

#

pressing dm=>15 secs hoc buff and 1 sec gcd=>kingsbane and just in a perfect queue you have the hoc buff for last kingsbane tick?

golden loom
#

well KB is fully stacked super fast during DM anyways, and it just isnt worth thinking about in reality

unborn patrol
#

Hi, what poisions should I use?

normal mist
#

!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

golden loom
#

but I mean I guess u can do whatever u want but 99% of people just macro HoC to DM and forget about it

so true

nocturne quail
#

chat said sin rogue is either all ST or all AOE and theres no inbetween

royal lantern
#

i mean, thats kinda true in m+?

#

you will either do high consistent aoe but low boss dmg, or you do good boss dmg but pay for it with your consistent aoe and need big targets for it now

marsh fjord
#

In the induction build in raid is there a use for vanish? to apply DS mark if needed?

waxen oyster
#

marsh fjord
golden loom
marsh fjord
#

i was streaming to my friends. and this old rogue main when he played in legion he said to my other friends. That i was playing wrong ( i was) why is he not using vanish for garrotes. not knowing you use vanish for that in the ST build

#

and just wanted to make sure 😄

golden loom
#

yeah u only vanish for garrote if u run improved garrote and lockenstock is like the only fight where u maybe do that but even then u can just stick with viscious venomns there aswell

marsh fjord
#

yeah i know that 😄

#

i like VV more

#

so what's up with all those little vers buffs? they gonna make a difference at all?

royal lantern
#

wdym little vers buffs

split veldt
#

whatever this is

humble verge
royal lantern
#

its some azerite powers that got affected by buffs and the list is just datamining

#

are you using azerite gear

royal lantern
#

they adjust some stuff and at the same time some azerite powers get affected aswell and datamining scraps it up

#

when like

#

its nothing

spice surge
#

Happens everytime they aura buff it, because theyve tied those azerite powers to the aura buff

west turret
#

Anyone willing to answer some potentially stupid questions about improved garrote in M+?

prisma cypress
#

there are no stupid questions

#

only stupid people

west turret
#

Let's find out if I am one: I noticed imp garrote was a suggested talent in most of the guides but in current higher keys rogues don't seem to use it. Is this just a by product of fully diving into the funnel playstyle of caustic splatter, or spreading rupture with bone spikes is just an easier and faster way to get venomous wounds benefit?

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.
normal mist
#

This allows them to also play more ST builds which they need in their 20's

west turret

Thanks

brave comet
#

i think i know the answer, but just to confirm, when gallywix first sends out that aoe suppression attack, do you guys stick to him or do you run to the next set of adds?

royal lantern
#

ill just cloak it

#

p1 doesnt really have any cloak usage outside of that tbh

brave comet
#

evasion doesnt block it right?

royal lantern
#

no

#

but you can just run out of melee range and feint, and it will only do like 50% hp

#

the dmg dropoff is kinda big, if you are not in melee range, feint lets you survive it

brave comet
#

awesome thanks friend!

indigo epoch
#

Is assa single target gonna be just as (relatively) bad in s3? (Not sure about set bonuses etc.)

brave comet
#

i could be severely wrong, but it doesnt seem likes its gonna be great

Trying to decide whether to play assasination or outlaw next season. Mainly do m+ and heroic raiding (no myth) but I still like seeing big numbers go BRRRRR.

are garrote talents good again in M+?

all the r1 keys i did this season i never considered ironwire

its too big of a dps loss for it to be worth taking

you dont really need it for anything other than fixing ur dogshit group's gameplay

#

so try interrupting maybe

#

u have enough im sure

maiden sierra
#

pugs dont interrupt

icy geyser
#

I would love to see a change to assa where you don't have to spread the bleeds. just press a button and hit an AOE with bleeds, just like a shadow priest crash

winged sun

i tried -3 key levels

#

in pugs

Ironwire is a DPS gain with pugs

winged sun

its way harder than +21 key

winged sun

in low keys stray casts are a healer mechanic

in keys that are like

+18 and below

More Assa Buffs On PTR

TLDR
Probably nothing changed but number went up. Fatebound is fully dead and gone, bleed build survives, targeted tuning good, lack of hero talent attention very bad

UglyAssDog why
CT nerf was kinda expected given how insanely strong of a button it is, but I also don’t think it was entirely necessary considering we’re getting ANOTHER envenom buff, and caustic is both more accessible and more damage. Comparing what is essentially a 1 point aoe tool that passively splashes all your damage versus a 2 point investment for CT, which requires combo point spending, I don’t really understand why CT is getting the shaft and not caustic.

Fatebound is killed through 1000 cuts. Fatebound is unique in the way that it adds its own source of damage (tails), but also buffs all damage like an aura buff (heads). While on paper that doesn’t have a downside when we get aura buffs, it does have a downside when we get targeted buffs like these. Deathstalker pushes mutilate/ambush damage through the mark, envenom damage through darkest night, and enables vicious venoms. All of that combines into this just being better for deathstalker than it would be for fatebound. On top of another week without fatebound changes, the casket is getting lowered atm.

Garrote/Rupture buffs are a good thing imo, promotes a healthier balance between bleed aoe and just spamming envenom forever (which is why it’s confusing that we’re buffing envenom yet again). The balance between those doesn’t change much, but 13% to garrote probably brings back improved garrote.

All of that being said, yes buff, around 4% in single target, and it’s basically equal in m+, roughly depending on build (bleed build is slightly up, cleave is slightly down). With all of that being said, yeh. Hero talent balance gets worse, spec gets better

red schooner
#

'Bleed build is slightly up'

#

LETS GO

#

THATS THE MAIN TAKEAWAY FROM THIS THANKS WHISPYR

So we got a 8% Aura Buff, a 9% CT Nerf to compensate and some new buffs ?

if you ask me, we are a perfect class, thats why we only ever get tune nob adjustments

maybe not "3 new" trees, but the lack of big changes on them could definitely suggest they're working on them in a way that requires an expansion rather than just a patch. Add in whatever copium of unknown system changes that'll come with Midnight

When the second Hero Talent was being developed, Blizzard had two incredibly good ideas, and since they couldn't decide, they told the Class Designer to flip a coin.

Unfortunately, he misunderstood what they meant.

#

We also got our hero talents extremely late in the TWW dev cycle.

frigid thunder
#

If better garrote makes scoundrel cleave less appealing is something like subterfuge hybrid the more appealing poison leaning build?

half tartan
#

I feel like deathstalker is also so underwhelming comparing it to like the DH or Pally and a few other classes, just some boring ST damage

main solar
#

Some classes have some cool ones, but if all you play is rogue, I can definitely see the sentiment being "these suck, just scrap the whole hero talents system". They just seem so tacked on and carried by the fact that the base rogue class is in a pretty good spot.

And with how much random bullshit takes us out of stealth, making the application of Mark be reliant on stealth is so cringe

I lost my mark on Stix from being in the ball too long and didn't have vanish. Felt terrible, I wanted us to wipe immediately. Does any other class just get locked out of their hero talents for something like that? I can't think of anything others that I've played
