at the very least ill probably have an easy time getting into a guild as no one wants to play rogue lol
Same, but it has been that way for quite some time
to play in the raid
indeed
since the mini rework
before the mini rework assa was awful in m+
i dont remember clearly but we had to spread 1 dot at a time i think
at least garrote could be spammed but one at a time
maybe i dont remember correctly
please correct me if im wrong
!up
I did the skip on two alts and I didn't get a quest either
It just auto-completes the current main story for you
Is bleed or hybrid simming higher rn
and you fly to the little tiny island to Hashim or whatever tf and get your cloak from him
i wish to know this too
id wager bleed being stronger in lower keys as per usual
and the absolute highest maybe hybrid but
Neither did, they just thought its a great mechanic for half of the games specs

i have nothing to go after so dont take my word for it
Bleed seems to be superior
What massive cooldowns does bleed use
The same as hybrid
literally only deathmark i think
bleed has always simmed the highest out of the options for dungeonslice
we dont have kingsbane so
Kb isnt a massive cd
plus the sudden demise is insane
is that so
the only reason the hybrid build became a thing was to trade some overall for more single target
i assumed it was
Kb is 1 min and has noodle dmg as a standalone skill
DM is the only big CD ye
oh yeah i forgot they massively nerfed it in df and let it be like that
man i miss when KB could be your top damage in raids
it was so much fun
nasty ability then
it felt so good
I liked KB aswell, shouldve been a core part of the spec and not a talent in the first place imo

i dont understand why they did it dirty
"we dont like that it does so much damage"
Envenom is also a major CD even if it has no CD 



Is this copium for M+?
I mean you can't say now it will be the best specc basically, but from the output it has for M+ scenarios, could it be real? š
Shiv dm
@languid gate assa raw numbers are literally just that good
They are the a funnel spec too
So even more insane
Im expecting a nerf to assa soon cause they usually dangle rogues up high and then drop em on a spike
Idk why it would be copium, assa has been the 4th or 5th best dps for all of tww so its not that much of a leap to move it up into top3
Feral druid diff
do we take mastery thread thing for cloak
Doubt unless they way overperform in m+
They are busy with raid tuning
think you have to do 2-3 quests before you get the new quest to skip and require a new cloak
Assa raid is ass
how are they lookin in raid tho?
we cant know but its pretty strong
Assa raid is ass
so how many times do you envenom before you go into vanish on your opener on fatebound?
Mid afaik
ass or swamp-ass?
do i finish coldblood then vanish?
does anyone know how to phase diving entered for weekly big world quest, pylon seems bugged for me i cant click it
I mean no?
You vanish while having CB buff
so like immediately after KB?
tell me you dont know how good sin is without telling me
Yeah

what about on the 3rd minute mark uwucutegirl-ingame?
Outlaw overperforming and getting nerfed
also the same?
Heard it here first
Always happens
Outlaw players are literal coke fiends who snort rng like their life depends on it
Happens so often that I cant think of the last time

Yeah
Real though it happened df s3
and this is the madness that drives me away from the pirate channel^^
Outlaw should uncap bladeflurry
Previously when you ran MA on fatebound you would usually vanish before the 2nd envenom

But now if you run VV theres no reason to hold it for a few extra seconds so just slam it right after KB
thank you uwucutegirl, i always know i could ask questions if you're here

No worries but also I am not wrong but if I am then also not my fault
its okay i can blame it on whispyr for not spoonfeeding us in his video
already did though on his guide(most likely)
youre right!
i love whispyr!

Wait are we back to running MA
Ffs having Vanish as a pure defensive/mechanic cheese/DsM resetter was so comfy
Where did you get that from
Oh is it some actual fatebound mechanic
It might be back to Vicious Venom once we get set pieces. No one knows right now
edge case cooking
Double jeopardy
Ic
yup i stand corrected here,edge case is on DM
its double jeopardy
we are picking energizing fiber i guess
dexterous livegods 
Definitely looks the coolest
A reminder you can now be edgy and /lean in game
@radiant raven stole your picture
Strong ankle strength is the key
Heello, wich build are we using until have the new tier? bleeds build same?
worth dropping 4/4 tier for champion gear?
Send the sim for it but probably not
We spend hundreds of hours carefully considering each spec and weighting its strength and weaknesses.
The result was this tier list for Mythic+ Dungeons.
Everywhere im seeing we are at minimum A tier in m+ feelsgoodman
||Its a joke, the tier list is alphabetic. But Tier lists are fairly useless atm. There might be more tuning and we won't see a Mythic+ meta build for a few weeks. Which means, it is simply to early.||
I mean where else would it be?
__A__ssassination
Form latest ptr testing it's the spec that does the most overall (maybe contending against udk/frost dk)
While also doing by far the most funnel in the game
The st isnt the highest tho but it's still low/middle of the pack and you can always just pull into bosses so it's alright
^ continuing the trend we saw for multiple seasons now
I knew it š¦
Realz did say they don't do Kingmaking, so its just coincidence i guess
Wish we wouldnt spread useless shit even if its a joke potentially
Kinda happens across some classes tho
Hm
Realz did say they don't do Kingmaking fix Kingsbane, so it's just coincidence i guess
What about mage tho
Well zac has offered two months of his salary to fix outlaw so clearly he has to be outbid by somebody... 
Or maybe they just dont care 
I would take an S tier raid damage for m+ meme spec monkey paw
There is a lot of evidence for prefered treatments of certain classes/specs. I did just repeat what was told in this discord well... quite a while ago
But you always get a spot in raid
Rogue in general feels like its a bit neglected
w/e of balance between specs (which is also not great)
Well we knew that already
Came to my mind aswell, but is it really like that tho? Werent there some frost and fire mixups lately?
I mean the class mage is always (or most always in the meta comp)
Now granted Yoh could say it's cause lust is a limited raid buff
Ah you mean mage itself as a favorite, alright. Thought you meant mage as a class with a favored spec
Ye
I meant the class itself
Is clearly favored
Both in term of dev time and tuning
I sometimes feel like they just lack direction on rogue
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
So they dont have much to put in if they dont know where they should be going
Eh
!trinkets
I think there Is plenty to do in term of qol stuffs already
new rep is "just" for infinite augment rune right?
does someone know which races are the best this patch for assa?
Humans
They look the best
Just the hero talents themselves already could benefit from a lot of qol
take any costs 100g to swap
I read that you can buy them for 100g
oh ok
Whichever color you like the most
so sin rogue plays the same as the last season just more damage?
Yes
Yes
Us
does anyone know why i dont have world quests on my 2nd alt in karesh? i did the campaign skip and got the cloak
rotation with fatebound doesn't change anything?
oh are we no longer deathstalker?
you need to finish the diving missions (purple quest)
i thought i did... i got to "more than just a phase"
I don't think so for pure single target, but I'm not sure.
ahh ok, something to look into then
the skip is after entering the portal, the npc will be behind a "table/mini pillar"
yeah i did the skip 100%
it was in full red text asking if i wanted to skip
but it does not unlock world quests on 2nd character
my first character has em unlocked
There are some changes, check whispyr latest YouTube video or wowhead

fly to where you get the cloak with your alt, and talk to the npc 3/6 and get the cloak on the alt, I think that should solve it
this is my alt
i got the cloak
but no world quests
NVM just figured out its a visual bug - i have them, they just arent showing up on my map
there are 2 versions:
- The base fibre you can get from a vendor (offers lower amount of stats)
- The "pure" fibre you need to do a crafting order for (offers higher amount of stats)
You can think if it as a socket, but you get the "gems" from tailoring instead
Ah ok

What do you do when rupture and garrote finish on a pack, do i go 1 by 1 aplying those again or only to my main target and prio the aoe by caustic?
Not plater but the unitframe specifically.
I only use plater, can't be of help š¦
No worries, thx š
So I always need to reapply rupture to all and garrote only to main tg for caustic?
I guess if enemy has to day in less than 10s doesnt need to
Ruptures give you energy and agility
Which also gives you more funnel DMG to your main target
𩸠build question for m+. Do I hold shiv until the mobs are lower for zoldyaks?
Or however itās spelled š
But for the execute
You shiv to unethically maximise demise damage
Thatās kinda my question
Save shiv for zoldyck is generally the play. That's what I tell people when they accuse me of playing solely for the big demise.
I also desthmark low HP bosses for this purpose so... Maybe don't follow my advice.
I used to send right after applying everything but now waiting till pack is like 40% health significantly has upped my dmg
But also feels like I lose some of it due to demise lol
How would demise make you lose damage
If it actually makes you not lose all of it in the first place

Because sometimes the urge to go for the giga demise takes over and I send deathmark on bosses with 100mil HP left 
Yeah I know you are weird, but I meant him
anyone has tips for switching targets for bleeds, i'm getting dizzy tabbing to rputure & garrote and then finding my deathmark prio target back im losing time
Perfectly normal behaviour
!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.
What plater profile do you guys use?

if you have dn up from the prev pack ignore the mark. dont even ambush also, go directly rupture/garrot. make sure you use your dn on prio target before it fades out and when you do, it auto applies mark to the target you envenomed at
got it so basically i should stop getting dizzy for a little bit more damage and just bleed my main target
so it spreads
If you shiv too late isnāt it a waste?
Yep @rough nimbus
Somewhat
You still boost demise
The closer towards the end of shiv they die the better tho, but you can at some point judge if they die faster and just shiv before execute
proccing demise faster means the ret pally gets 1 less gcd so you can assert dominance
TRUE
!stats
There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.
- Signet of the Priory will require you have Mastery as your highest RATING (the actual number, not the %). Having Crit and Mastery close to one another will cause procs from Flask or Seaforium Pacemaker to cause your Signet to give you Crit. This is generally worse and will cause Signet to sim poorly.
- Compared to each other, Deathstalker wants more Mastery/Haste than Fatebound, and Fatebound wants more Crit than Deathstalker
- Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
thats old data
that's not old data
you just send a shiv on cd when 2 charges are available, making sure to get it on cd
Its literally still the same
never hold shivs just for execute
i mean its good if you shiv on execute ye, but never hold it for that reason ig
Is there a weakaura that helps with rotation? Something like maxdps or hekili?
no, it's a pretty simple rotation to begin with and those addons still don't get it right
much better to take the short term L and actually learn the spec
Thanks
where can i find talent trees for 11.2?

Wdym
is m0 daily or weekly?
Weekly
I reload and the program just closes itself
in single target once i'm below half energy do i stop mutilate and envenoms and wait till above 50%?
assuming i used all teas
how does Assa look performance wise for this tier?
tier is live like a day
but in all its fine
might take some time to provide definitive answers
Definitive answers mid September
Around that time
When you know... There are actual live logs
That's early November :3

!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
Use this to cast cold blood with Kingsbane, which is optimal for Fatebound. The order does not matter, as Cold Blood is only consumed on Envenoms.
#showtooltip Kingsbane
/cast Cold Blood
/cast Kingsbane
Assassination uses no other macros aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket
This is 100% true statement. I sat on dummies and just learned everything and my dps went up on average over 1 million in m+ vs when I was using hekili. Or if you use it as a āhelpā you have to know the rotation enough and interactions enough to know what to ignore
aint no way
ā¤ļø
As an added benefit youāll actually know the spec and not depend on an addon that might be broken or unmaintained one day!
does anyone else feels like something is missing without kingsbane?
Talking about bleed build? God I switched over to bleed build hate the low boss dmg but man so much feels better to play in m+
Donāt miss kb at all
can someone remind me what im missing from this command to make it so i rupture current target when my mouse isnt hovered
i thought it did it natty but it seems it doesnt
#showtooltip Rupture
/cast [target=mouseover,exists,harm,nodead][harm,nodead]Rupture
ty
basicly binds it to mouseover isnt it
havent used this for a while
mouseover but casts at target if u dont mouse over anything
or somewhere

omg

lets wake up and play wow right away


i got a trinket
last word of the command that changes line <<Ruptre>> (chewed on a ''u'')
for some reason the original copy paste didnt work
seems the font format of discord added a space and i cascaded it
i know the feeling of getting trinkets
why is there a sparkle effect on the bottom of my screen
at least there are no cast sequence rogue macros

because youre beautiful
there are couple but for pvp mostly and sub specific
not recommended
cs macros are dogwater
nah like
what is it
how do i turn it off lol
my macros are cursed, i kept messing up caustic spatter so i set everything to cast on focus
some1 talked about it in sub chat also, i think its a bug effect from the cloak
Can you guys help me with a more detailed explanation of how to behave when pooling in raid?
personally i saw no sparkles 
wait you have your main target on focus?
You don't
!design
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.
yes ambush macro to apply focus and shiv,kingsbane,envenom macros to hit focus target
that is OMEGA griefing
ok! ty
since you arent autoattacking your focus target
š
I would just stop with that asap
why would u do that
Then why use a focus macro in the first place ? 
unless u cheese ppl in arena with focus
the reasoning to put envenom on focus is crazy to me
even for pvp
i use it because im bad at retargeting the bad guy with the spatter on, it works for me so meh
sure if it works for u
spread your bleeds from that target instead
its fine
you dont need to swap target
u actually lose spatter from there yes
the actual reason why sin doesnt have to do any swapping
spatter exists
ok but then i kick and blind and prio target and lose the bozo in the crowd of bs
mythic 0 tazavesh is open this week?
u can kick and stun from focus
but envenom is just crazy
aoe blind / and either mouseover kick / focus kick
rather than focus macroing all your other stuff
he can macro the kicks and stuns from focus its not bad
actually controls better the waves
its fine
but it is hard to apply
in actual real time scenarios
like pulling in ML first pack and kick the rogue cast
its a fukton of mobs
i can post them to get you real cheesed lol
but u kick ur focus
ild jump out of ur screen and slap u though for that focus envenom
thats strictly not recommended
you even spelled the pot wrong....

where the love blizzard
but whatever makes the game fun for you king
thats so i dont use it during world content, i fix it in dungeons
the most unforgivable of all the unforgivable curses
POTIO
the ambush macro is an oldschool tricks/ambush pvp macro
focus ambush? what the hell
but my eyes bleeding on that envenom
what for? i knew there were pyroblasts and other big casts on focus, but ambush?
They finally made p2 hard
my whole thinking was that you want to funnel all damage through the spatter target so this forces that
dont have to think about who is spattered if you set it at the beginning of the fight
makes u highly unpredictable coz 99.9% of ppl play with ''target of target'' u can target someone and hit someone else so its dmg they cant possibly predict
thus making u extremely lethal
Are there only 6 m0 dungeons available for the first week?
that sounds so unnecessary lol
well if u are pushing for gladiator+ thats obligatory š
u are crazy
but thanks for the explanation
many rogues use that
in pvp its rly just binded
thats how ppl avoid being predictable
its very simple concept
im guessing we are talking about previous expansion when ambush actually mattered
yus
expansions*
so have to do 2 without gear drops to fill out vault slots for next week
yeah for the most part,now focus stuff mostly used for cc
to avoid losing targets into the mess
yeah, makes sense
any1 knows why sanguine blades hits like a truck in open world content sometimes?
Scaling is weird sometimes
"sometimes it be like that"
is there only 1 world quest in the new zone right now?
there are more than 5 for sure
hmm i can't see them on the map for some reason. only had 1
World Quest Tracker was borking my WQs
handynotes was also causing some issues for me
Hey guys
Wich is the best Spec for this season so far? Deathstalker or Fate?
!fb
Only changes for fatebound are macroing cold blood to kingsbane and vanishing during the cold blood buff during deathmark in order to double flip coins. Otherwise regular rotation, finishers on 5+
Min-maxes currently only include using shiv before deathmark with the Fatebound 2 piece equipped in order to buff the coins. The 4 piece is worth using, and you will want an 1:30 trinket (lily or prism) to buff your deathmark windows accordingly.
fatebound in full single target, deathstalker cleave/aoe, for now stay deathstalker:D
DS in m+, fatebound on ST
sounds good
didnt play Fatebound at all and i was a bit concerned about it
Fatebound is easier to pickup but lags in the damage dept
Are we meant to be using this arterial precision bleed build for m+ yet or is it for season 3 tier only? Seem to be doing bonkers dmg with it on 5 dummies with s2 4 set
Did an m0 tour last night and it still slaps ^.^
It's was mostly bis whole season 2 and will be even better in s3
The tier set working with shiv looks promising
Yes
Oh ok, missed a season, didnāt realise that was the build last tier. Cheers
We vanish anytime during cold blood?
The only time you donāt send bleed build is in title level keys or if your team is desperate for priority damage
Rn itās insanely OP for m0s
Be careful, you will summon Zeross saying bleeds is bad prio
but also, "prio dmg" is something that doesnt matter for 99,9% of players lol
Facts
Agreed
Prio deez
At face value, "deez" seems absurdāa punchline without a setup, a fragment of internet humor. Yet its very emptiness invites reflection. Like a Zen koan, it subverts expectation, forcing us to confront the limits of language and meaning. To ask āWhat is deez?ā is to stumble into irony, confusion, or shared laughterāeach response revealing our desire to make sense of the senseless.
Culturally, "deez" functions as both joke and signal: a marker of in-group awareness and a commentary on how meaning is shaped by context. It reminds us that even the most trivial expressions carry the weight of social participation, and that sometimes, absurdity is the clearest expression of our time.
hello mates, Is the whole thing about staying above 30 energy in ST still a thing?
meeeeh i was thinking about switch but
dracthyr rogue is yuge change what u mean
did blizz do any tuning yesterday between ptr and live or is this same tuning we had on ptr?
No
never was a thing
Wasnāt it about the thistle tea proc thing ??
No
it always was irrelevant
is there an updated version of this
We never cared about it
I honestly dont even believe bleed to be the defacto best (for top end). I feel like once keys get to a point where packs live longer than your initial stealth empowered bleeds you're becoming significantly worse. Cant vanish on every pack after all. Maybe it doesnt matter and the damage youve dealt is enough but i can never trust bleed being actually good at the top end.
Oh really, I thought it was important to use that tea only during the Kingsbane window
It is
SavedInstances does all this without covering your screen
But you'll always have 1 charge for KB
It is but tea is on a 1min cd and so is kb so youre guchi
is it an addon?
Yes
Heu... yes?
thanks
Ooook, I thought you had to keep the maximum number of charges possible and use them all during KB, I didnāt think a single tea was enough
thanks a lot mates
I don't play top end, but I saw eleem talk about it yesterday or the day before, saying that bleed with this tier got even stronger and most likely best overall
Maybe, it just doesnt feel right to me.
If itemizing haste is better in m+ though i will certainly take it
Also why are we beta testers too this patch? (Eu)
We tested on NA and found that the bugs werent bad enough to report. Sorry eu
is sudden demise bugged atm?
How is it bugged
World content sudden demise might be a bit whack
im in delves atm
or doesnt work at all
My demise was critting 30m in my m0s last night so odk
Guys if playing dungeon do you use kingsbane on your builds?
No
i kinda like the idea of kingsbane to use it on boss but i dont know if its worth it
It isn't
JUGEEE
Same !
I'm so doomed when it comes to mythic week - I just did a world tour, got pacemaker, lily, signet, and sacbrood
that's it, all my loot luck for the season gone on day 1
lol wtf is this sparkly thing on the bottom of my screen that wasnt here before i logged into new patch today
Anyone else having an issue with cancel aura'ing Darkest Night? I normally use it between packs in M+ so that Mark applies correctly but it seems that macros aren't working to cancel it anymore?
With this you will not accidently use more than 1 charge of tea if youre spamming:

Assassination uses no other macros aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket
cloak sparkleys

Thanks loop, but doesnt answer the question
that was for me
i didnt even read your question lol
what is the macro to cancel stupid fucking spark thing when you go stealth?
it seems to have a no cancel flag
theres no reason to cancel your DN buff
just build to 7 cp by spreading improved garrotes or ambush off the rip
I mean, otherwise even though you apply it with the ambush it doesnt consume anything until you 7cp envenom so its just wasting damage no?
Surely it was better to cancel it then its working as intended
Do you? Even though the stack count doesnt go down?
you still get the benefits from consuming the DN buff
which is not the same
as consuming a mark

check your talents
sub wants to cancel DN in aoe so that's not great
is the fatebound dream dead ? it was on delve and single target yesteday
good thing we don't play ds lol
champ lily is the best on use we can get this week yeah
WTF XDDDD
you dont want a guaranteed crit with 60% extra damage?
I'd rather the mark actually apply correctly so i dont have to have envenom be my first spender in aoe instead of applying bleeds
but sure
i think it's better to just answer the question instead of prodding people to explain themselves
That directed at me?
no, nooj who wanted you to explain why you are trying to cancel it
But DS is BIS all other scenarios with more than one boss and cleave
hmm ok
I've not tested or simd myself however
yeah the above shows fatebound, the links show deathstalker, im sure its still kinda a WIP
as i see there're crafters already doing pure fibers in trade chat
how can i farm renown 5 real fast?
gotcha, thx
also where can i get 2nd spark piece
just woke up and tryin to get my shit in one piece
Darkmoon buff this week as well
The thing is that you can have it both ways. The actual cycling of the mark does nothing in aoe, especially if you donāt have caustic up to cleave the tiny amount of damage that the markās doing. The whole thing with the mark in aoe is having the mark up for singular focus, and then eventually getting your darkest night envenoms. In the situation that you cancelaura, youāre just canceling the thing youāre trying to build towards in the first place, when you couldāve just had that to begin with an consumed it when you were ready
papa whispyr is typin
Youāre probably actually losing damage that way because if you cancelaura and then break the mark down and get darkest night, you lose the markās effect obviously
Lnaoooo
Where as if you just apply it without doing gymnastics with some whack ass macro
You would maintain the mark and have darkest night
So in that regard youāre actively hurting your mark uptime
Which is where the damage is
The god has spoken
are we craftin ascend on dagger
Is it safe to assume the 1:30 trinket from ecodome is fatebound on use bis? I was lucky enough to get it last night
No worries, thank you for the explanation.
Always saw the infinite mark not counting down as a bug and the macro was my way of getting around that and getting the mark actually rolling. With that being wrong I'll just go with the flow.
Cheers Whispyr
Np
np
Whispyr has a nice video on fatebound
You macro to kb
alright thanks!
probably
but its still big
it does depends on sims tho, or if i get wrists
actually very big coz socket
but ye
yea
socket is like
2 ilvl upgrades?
or is it only 1
in equal difference
i was thinking 2 upgrades as in 6 ilvls
that works too
š
meanwhile im reinstalling wow
coz drivers

least my connection burns jetfuel
will end soon
sometimes getting people to explain their thought process makes the issue very obvious
also i did answer it first, i said you consume DN which provides benefits
his reply to me indicated that he thought his first spender being envenom was an issue, which it really isn't
also im just some guy, he has no reason to implicitly trust anything i say
meh, i think "you cannot cancel it" is better than "why are you doing that read your talents"
sometimes it makes people feel put on the spot and they feel bad for asking
ofc, that didn't happen here in the end, so it's fine
i guess i saw that the question has a literal answer that you cannot cancel it anymore so the shebang about doing it or not was superfluous
sure, but if it becomes cancelable in the future, now they know why they shouldn't instead of just "an authority told me"
HI all , is corruption still a thing to do for s3 ?
am I blind? how tf do you get to the nether realm on the world boss?
someone as the macro for fatebound
ok ty
Is this more race/faction change shenanigans like the circe ring? š¤£
do u mean the island? fly there
the boss wasn't in the phase realm for me
no idea
he has a damage amp when he retreats
and you can go on the nether realm and get more dmg but I have no idea how it works
ohhh lol i thought it was kill the adds phase
xD
it was basically unplayable for me last night tho i just had to afk and wait for 6 retreats
8 second input lag
managed to see it, they are like little bright purple/pink swirls
holy fuck with so much shit going on they are barely noticeable
wait
yeah legit took almost 11 minutes to kill it last night
anyone have a recommendation for easiest/fastest delve to grind up to 11?
i hope fatebound for everything bc night stalker play is garbage
!sims

It wonāt be for m+, extremely likely
The tree for deathstalker helps it for aoe and hurts it for fatebound
fatebound feels weird after playing dsm for so long
not being nagged to hit a 7 cp envenom
anyone else having issues of not losing combat even with vanish?
depends on the context
vanish doesn't drop combat in boss fights
which includes dungeon bosses afaik
actually its open world in karesh, i believe its some bug with dots?
oh, maybe
So, I got lilly, does the use prio change? Do I sent it after the first DM combo on CD or force wait the 30 secs to line up again?
for fatebound?
dungeon scenario sry
oh, just macro it to DM no?
I read whispyrs note on that its a good line up for fb anyway
on wowhead
so I was curios for dng/m+
it's perfect for fb since its 1:30
but otherwise I think u just macro and forget it
Just use it with deathmark
if ur pressing deathmark, press ur on use
tyvm gamers
the lag is starting up again already
Where the hell could I get a dagger from? Like my rogue is benched since S1 š M0 got me no luck, what can I do š
which sim do i use if i wanna see my best gear for dungeons or raid and what should be prio? i think it is advised to use different sockets for example.. do i go for Raid ST Sim sockets?
@balmy condor did you update class WA and plater? I love yours
Iām going to push some updates later today
for both or just the plater? did the class wa suffer something?
seems like my SD is realy bugged. full bleeds and a 70mil mob goes lower than 100k and SD only proccs when he dies
The WA should be the same but some people have said itās bugging out so idk, going to make some minor tweaks and then release a new version, if the WA is working for you, you shouldnāt need to update it
I'm still confused reading the wowhead guides, is there a tl;dr for when to pick which m+ talent build?
Are in open world content (world quests/delves) or instances content
delves
I'm gonna run some m0s now and i'll let you know if it bugs
when they die fast, go bleeds. if you needsmore prio, go poison
Yeah, open world is bugged with scaling nonsense
Thatās not actually true
ok ty
Itās realistically only for boss damage, prio damage is equal or worse as you go more poison focused
Bleed single target isnāt great, which is what the cleave build is for
if you're not sure which talents to pick it 99.9% means you should go bleed build for m+, it's more forgiving and better overall
but just for general m+, going to keystone master etc.
alright
you WILL be wondering what you're doing wrong on bosses when you have no energy
that is expected
whisp, does raidbots have the option to change the stats on the new cloak for sims
yeah ive noticed that
alternately get your tanks to pull in a couple trash mobs and life is much better
!bleed
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.
@balmy condor tell me where I can get daggers from, my rogue was benched since S1, M0 didn't get a single one, i am stuck with 636 right now
M+ next week
i got a dagger from dawnbringer rn
Or craft one with the spark
Crafting one is optimal anyway so probably do that with whatever
Itās a gem, thereās a section at the bottom of top gear with the rest of the gems
bro, even hc daggers are better than mine haha
Then go do heroic dungeons I guess idk
This week doesnāt mean shit
I wouldnāt worry about it
thanks, could not check myself cus mobile internet is poop

yy i know, just want to get in keys next week as quick as possible š
so do we play deathstalker or fatebound in m+ ?
guys im playin sin to start the mythic raid season because i hate the crafting system and swappin stats
636 dagger wonāt stop you from doing m+, not having friends will
Deathstalker no question
st raid 
not having friends is problem nr. 2 iksdeh, i mean main has 3.8k score from last season, hope that will help me
3.8 and youāre pugging m+ week 1
i am only puggingš
it kinda is, yep
Iād simply stop playing tbh
a lot of patience and a bit of luck
why can't we have Iron Wire again T-T
So you know how people go to the zoo to look at other animals
Thats what pugging is like
no its not
zoo animals are keept in a way where they cant harm people
Its a petting zoo
petting zoo filled with plague rats, yeha

!design
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.

This macro bug is driving me nuts
what macro bug
It's like cast sequencing won't work. I have mut and stealth in a macro so stealth will be cast when not in combat and it will put my character into the stealth animation, but not actually in stealth. Same with my shiv and tea. Sometimes it will cast both, other times just tea

shiv tea was working fine for me i think
idk about that other shit but sounds wack
unlucky. game bad ig
anyone else having issues with mouseover party frames?
quick question, do we only start playing fatebound once we get the new 4p on st? or is it worth playing it now after the buffs?
Itās worth now
sick, ty
I think there is all sorts or fuckery with everything. From having to relog everytime I need to complete a quest to all my add ons screaming at me. I had to delete all add ons and re download.

@balmy condor did they change the tazavesh dagger? Iām guessing itās not something we want like before this time around (hopefully)
What

wrong megadungeon XD
Bro it took me until now to remember Dawn of the infinites was a dungeon
Dragonflight dungeons were so forgettable
Best dungeon is halls
probs just asap
What is breakin tier
do we still play bleed build in m+?
replace your old tier set for new pieces
oh
Oh
i mean, you will replace it with new tier
it literally just got better 
sim
blizz
Any good videos explaining assassination for someone new to it/rogue. Feel like hearing it explained might do better for my pea brain than reading the wh guides for the 5th time
Ill cyall in lfr nerds
yeah thats not happening
ret pallies
we are playing fatebound ONLY in pure ST fights?
š

Academy first pull 
bro's prolly fuming over his screen with ppl NOT READING the guide THE SAME MAN WROTE
Probably around half the raid fights
youtube shindig 11.1 assa i found it helpful itās long
Thank you
question do we use fatebound now or after geting full T gear?
Itās better in st without tier
This week is m0 and delves so might as well play crab build š¦
are helm enchants now disabled? i just saw red text that said "you can't use that here" but i havent seen any wowhead posts (or i missed it)
Yes
ty
really they buff it that much ?
Yes
wow never though that day would have come to pass lol
turns out
when they buff it by a billion percent
because otherwhise it would end with a 0% playrate
it becomes better 
deathstalker still good in M+
but without tierset its also still giga rng if you get the capstone or not
was under the impression we still needed the tset for fb but comes out it slaps
FB is hot garbage in aoe
i trust the whispyr
you guys think I can do one button rotation and not get kicked out of raid?
deathstalker is non-negotiable for m+
Yes
are you doing lfr or normal? yes sure
even heroic,no one rly cares
eh, early heroic its sketchy af lol
we usually do AOTC every patch, but that wont happen immediately
lol only asking since wow heard has DS for M + still
also true
Is there a reason really I would want to track coin flips at all or
not really
what can you track there
not like you have controll over it or smth like that 
yeah that's what I was wondering rly but I'm pretty dumb so I figurted maybe htere was
with tierset the capstone is guranteed on the opener
and like
after that its literally coinflipping
You still need to think about your mark some times
FB is press buttons, do a slightly different opener
In single target you never have to think about your mark so it's equally as easy, and in aoe deathstalker is much better so you gain a lot for the extra worry of dealing with marks there.
Well I know that in ST you dont, but you still kinda have to think about full CP env to reapply it is what I meant lol
i take it FB ok in cleave fight with toxic spatter talented in
FB is not very good in anything AoE
that a problem u know there going to be some cleave fights
Deathstalker
justr go DS with cleave
Fixed the problem

technically FB is just better in pure ST but even then we'll know for sure in practice later in the tier
rn im still skeptical it'll be better the whole tier
Is it cleave fights or funnel fights
sounds like what a true pirate would say
For DS, any cleave fight it's a funnel fight
If i get adds that survive longer then 10 seconds ill he happy
by default exist
I swear the add fights become so bad later into tier
They just get stepped on instantly
Whispyr mentioned that we might play fatebound in raid up to 6 bosses, depending if adds die really fast or not
!up
this next month they will survive longer
but once gear settles, fb might be played more
How much dps is the overall looking like for average people in m0 right now in bleed build? 680ish ilvl
Im 8-10mil on 5 targers
anyone knows what is going on ? why tempest is so low.....and where is spatter dmg???
But i have no tier so
Just trying to gauge if im playing decently lol
That requires logs
Maybe when keys come out
Saw casuals video on 19 floodgate, first pull doing 32 mil on bleed build. Im not a fan of bleed build but if its the viable spec in 19s, then I gotta get used to it
which fiber do we pick for in our cloak?
CT got 9%nerf
If no spatter damage you didnāt activate spatter 
It's whatever
can also sim in the gem section
trust me i did !!
I was gonna say Iām not sure if they added it yet but we had advanced sims built if it wasnāt ready to push
ooo, sacbrood on the first run
Does anyone know if there is a difference between the fiber they give you and the one you can craft?
What was this? A key? You donāt even have sudden demise. Your ct uptime is prolly just low if itās that low. Spatter should be way up there if you were hitting your spatter target.
The amount of stats
I mean Iāve had it before where it doesnāt activate when itās laggy but yeah it looks like you had it active. It should be up there unless there is a bug but I havenāt noticed it
