How much of a dps loss would it be if tank is chain-pulling and not adding mobs for funnel on bosses ? Enough for considering sub dps wise in that scenario ?

Ah yes thanks. Useful for council opener. Edit: sry im dump we dont bone spike in council

!chainpulling

glacial lantern
#

There are 3 main issues i have with sin rogue, downtime in st, bad pure st with m+ build, like really bad, and the way indisc carnage work and is positioned

open gulch
#

!vanish

prisma monolithBOT
#

Vanish->Ambush during cooldowns with Darkest Night up has two main benefits:

  • Getting more mark uptime by reapplying when it's down
  • Consuming Darkest Night then puts you from 3 stacks of the mark down to 2 since the mark is already applied

As of September 13th with the Echoing Reprimand Fix, that second part is broken. Blizzard inadvertantly added a bug where you cannot consume mark stacks while darkest night is active. This will hopefully get resolved quickly as it is quite impactful. Until that time, you might want to consider taking improved garrote in your single target build (instead of 1 point of vicious venoms, or instead of improved poison). You do not have to do this, and if you would like to continue to play without improved garrote, you would simply hold onto your vanish in case you drop the mark. Once the bug is fixed you would go back to vanish->ambush.

fallow canopy
#

ok I don't remember the command

open gulch
#

oh

thorn thorn
balmy condor
#

!chainpull

prisma monolithBOT
#

Explanation of why stealth benefits aren't as important as you might think:

  • For starters, "Chain pulls" are NOT when the tank pulls a new pack with 1% hp remaining on the previous mobs. That is called "Bad Tanking", and it sucks for everyone in your party.
  • Correct Chain pulls usually happen while the previous pack is still alive and not dangerous. This increases uptime on more targets, which is the biggest increase in DPS for the entire party. This is also the biggest reason why you see high key level players doing so much damage.
  • Garrote is roughly 7-9% of people's damage in a key, most of which is already empowered/cleaved
  • Most energy spreading will come from Rupture to maintain scent of blood, not garrote
  • Without a Trace (+1 vanish charge) only grants roughly 2 additional casts across a whole dungeon, but does allow for holding vanish for large chain pulls which improves the quality of each vanish
  • You can argue that it "feels bad", but numerically there is very little ground to stand on, the dps simply isn't there.

idk bro, talking about seeing a womanout in public in the ravenholdt discord is sus af

glacial lantern
#

Wait, how are you gonna use indisc carnage properly if you're not able to go into stealth? Wouldn;'t that be a big deal in aoe, due to the energy regen, if nothing else

thorn thorn
thorn thorn
#

Or you just manual multidot

rain mortar
thorn thorn
#

And it feels like ass and is a bit slow

glacial lantern
#

Vanish is fine, but manual can take a lot i think

#

Of time that is

thorn thorn
#

Slow in comparison to IC that is

#

With some good fok rng in aoe it should only take a few globals to rupture 5 things

glacial lantern
#

Man, i really don't like the way indisc carnage works

thorn thorn
#

Im not super fond of it being tied to stealth either but garf_sit

glacial lantern
#

Stealth windows are better for outlaw due to the massive cdr, there isn't really a moment where you don't have at least 1 vanish each pull

rain mortar

#

What poisons to use as rogue TWW s3, bleed build

thorn thorn
#

Might be placebo

#

I always found meld to be like a coinflip if it actually works

haughty flicker
#

cant play nelf, stealth animation sucks

glacial lantern
#

The only way i can see this fixed for sin rogue is either significant cdr on vanish for sin rogue too, or probably a better way would be to change how it works

thorn thorn
#

Nothing will ever top the rezan meld incident though omegakekW

rain mortar
glacial lantern
#

Like, using crimson tempest gives you a buff for 10 seconds allowing you to hit multiple enemies with garrote/rapture

#

I also dislike how it's a capstone, like wtf?

deft laurel
#

hi im new to assa just leveling, but i keep finding the shiv macro only actually works about half the time im clicking it. Should this be working?

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

thorn thorn
#

I want to say in a very early iteration of it it was a 1.5m cd you pressed to get the effect

#

And in DF S3 they shifted it to a passive

#

And made it considerably less ass to use but also made a bit of a dilemma since it still effectively has a cd but only if you get stuck in combat

glacial lantern
#

I think the crimson tempest idea is pretty good

rain mortar
#

I do really like IC, but has some frustrations for sure. Sin in general a bit annoying to use vanish for offense so much tbh

glacial lantern
#

It also fits from a thematic point of view

haughty flicker
#

when it was a button it also only worked on like your next garrote and rupture only

#

instead of now where its long as fuck

thorn thorn
#

Yes

slim jetty
#

the fist rupture after stealth sometimes gives me full CP. but why? i cant locate the skillpoint.

thorn thorn
#

The CD version was omega cursed

thorn thorn
#

It was also in a pre-spatter timeline so literally your only aoe was bleeds and poison bomb

glacial lantern
#

Yea, it was not good

#

Splatter is insane aoe, just dislike the way it's applied

brazen maple
#

using the devlin weakaura set. what is this 2? i cant figure out for the life of me

thorn thorn
#

Spatter is an objectively strong way to do AOE

#

I just think its lame

#

Reminds me too much of link

glacial lantern
#

I actually loved sear for shadow priest, and would like to see a choice node back between link and sear

#

The spender version

#

Not the builder one

thorn thorn
#

I like Link I just dont like the balance problems that come with it

#

It literally has a dictionary of tuning notes

glacial lantern
#

Link for spread aoe at the cost of some dps loss compared to stacked sear aoe

thorn thorn
#

40% link is also kinda worry

#

Especialy when at some point recently it was 15%

glacial lantern
#

Not recently, that was dragonflight s2

white lance
#

glacial lantern
#

But s priest has been pretty bad in m+ for a majority of tww

#

It should be good now though

#

There's also been a small "rework"

#

More like changes

#

but pretty good ones

thorn thorn
#

It seems strong until you realize that currently link is the only actual aoe it has unless you are archon

#

Halo kind of counts

#

But VW just has link and rift

glacial lantern
#

Well, link is the majority of aoe for weaver too

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 +20's or higher, you should play bleed
  3. Even if you're doing higher, you should probably play bleed
  4. No, Fatebound is not good, you play Deathstalker in every key.

Some general concepts as to why people play different things:

  • 11.2/Season 3: Bleed has gotten stronger through some buffs and the single target damage you get from singular focus is ridiculously good with the tier set. During PTR testing many high end rogues were just playing bleed everywhere.
  • 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 build is mainly for boss damage (note: not prio, there is no significant difference in prio). Assa single target in keys is pretty bad, and some bosses during season 2 were not possible on high keys otherwise. It remains to be seen what push keys in Season 3 will bring in that regard.
  • Specific Dungeons: Rookery as an example is very boss-heavy, especially the last boss, making bleed less ideal. Rookery is not in the rotation in Season 3, and there are a lot of AoE dungeons. Dawnbreaker might be a candidate, but unsure currently.
  • 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 outside of low target cleave and higher target AoE. Cleave is for single target damage and insanely large aoe because of how much caustic and crimson tempest carry aoe damage. At the end of the day, the builds are extremely similar, but Bleed is looking to simply be the best.

A similar ish problem to raid where you have lower skilled players dropping the capability of the group

humble verge

#

Except in M+ there are only 5 people instead of 20

I mean m+ers play the most cooked shit

haughty flicker
#

yeah but zephyr is just in class tree, either hero talent takes it

waxen oyster
#

is something i noticed

maybe he just played with bad augs

If your evoker doesnt take Zephyr for M+ kick them from the party

Hi guys new to rogue and I am trying to decide what spec is best to play for my M+ group this season. We are tentatively looking at playing rogue, arcane mage, and frost DK as our dps comp. I have heard playing 2 funnel specs like Assasination Rogue and Arcane mage can be bad. Would I be better off playing outlaw in this situation? What do you guys think?

marsh fjord
#

but i def see your point of having 2 funnels. but that doesnt really matter a lot. i've seen many high keys with arcane mage/assa rogue and its completely fine.

@humble verge

If you cannot defeat Kyveza, do not bother showing up to raid. This boss is a baseline mechanics check. If you cannot handle mechanics while maintaining a strong DPS or HPS rotation, you will only drag the group down on the harder fights ahead.

This is not optional. This is not "just a warm-up boss." This is the fight that tells us whether you can balance your gameplay fundamentals aka: awareness, movement, uptime, and performance but all at once. If you fail here, you will fail later.

If you can't be bothered to put in the hours to grind this fight, you are disrespecting the other 26 players on this roster who are putting in the work. This is a preparatory fight for a multi-week raid, and it requires commitment. If you can't commit now, you won't commit later.

You all said you wanted to improve as a raid and get a better ranking. That doesn't start with someone else carrying you, it starts with you improving your own gameplay. If you can't do that, you're dead weight. And yes, I'm talking to you, you slug.

And before anyone even thinks about saying, "my class isn't designed for this encounter" fucking save it. I've seen hundreds of Chinese VODs of Kyveza beaten on every single spec and every single hero talent combination possible. The fight is beatable. The capability exists. The only difference between them and you is execution and effort.

So here's the bottom line: Beat Kyveza before raid night, or don't show up.

in bleed build yes

#

will the opener in m+ change once 4 piece comes into play? Because if you open with ambush for DS mark then rupture, tempest, envenom you proc the mark and shiv wouldnt have a mark proc to consume

#

or is the optimization negligible

balmy condor
#

avoiding the mark proc on shiv is a single target thing

#

in AoE you're so swamped in energy and finishers regardless of what you do

winged sun
#

In real m+ im afraid you’ll shiv with darkest night up very often good luck everyone embrace the cringe gameplay

balmy condor
#

that it doesn't matter

winged sun
#

Because if u dont the pack is gonna die and u wont have time to pad otherwise

balmy condor
#

the mark moving is like such a whatever part of the tier in aoe

#

super doesn't matter

#

you get so much fucking value from the 2 piece

winged sun
#

Keeping mark up is definitely gonna be as important as it is for sub if not more

balmy condor
#

getting +1 mark stack

winged sun
#

Its super op

@humble verge S priest is good in s3, but it was pretty bad in s1/2 for m+

balmy condor

is like who cares

winged sun

Impossible to play around the mark consume thing sometimes but its quite good in most cases

#

Bleed build is omega destroying m+

#

Its possibly the strongest spec in all of m+ atm

#

Stronger than mage but we’ll see how long that’ll last 5532wickedsteer

but then again, they were fotm in DF

winged sun

Spriest will have to be played in high keys

#

Otherwise it’ll stay dead

#

Its played abit rn but idk might be just hyped up

#

I could be wrong tho didnt look much into ptr

balmy condor
winged sun
#

Its worth to shiv while DN up just to consume it early

#

Thats how it felt for me in some cases

#

Just to unlock things mark does

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

in single target you want to avoid doing that

#

like raid encounters and stuff

Ye for sure

is there any short video that explains spatter

#

i cant really watch 1hour guide

Whispyr was supposed to make one I thought...

balmy condor
#

hit that mob with anything that does nature damage

tranquil lynx
#

that i know

balmy condor
#

envenoms, kingsbane

#

hero talent shit

#

fatebound coins

#

literally everything

tranquil lynx
#

but what i try to do is

balmy condor
#

and it splashes

#

gg done

tranquil lynx
#

i rotate between targets

#

and apply shit ton on them

#

and make sure all debuffs are on

balmy condor
#

yeah that's troll

tranquil lynx
#

i have that zac UI

balmy condor
#

stop that

tranquil lynx
#

so what should i do instead

balmy condor
#

hit the mob that has caustic?

tranquil lynx
#

focus on 3 4 targets only?

balmy condor
#

no, you just spread your bleeds from stealth

tranquil lynx
#

Yes

balmy condor
#

and then just fucking smash the shit out of the mob you have marked

tranquil lynx
#

but after 20seconds i need to reapply and sometimes ther eis no vanish

balmy condor
#

spread a couple ruptures for scent/energy and go back to smashing the shit out of your marked target

tranquil lynx
#

i watched some shenanigans that its more dmg to garrote swap target garrote rupture swap rupture ambush multi blabla

balmy condor
#

realistically mobs are kinda dead by then

#

don't spread unempowered garrotes

#

spread garrotes from stealth or not at all

tranquil lynx
#

ye i talk about opening

#

cuz 1 -3 and if repeat its 2

#

but if swap its more

balmy condor
#

don't swap in your opener

tranquil lynx
#

or so i think i understood

balmy condor
#

I mean it is but you aren't really getting anything out of it

#

just stick to your target

tranquil lynx
#

hmm okay i will try

balmy condor
#

you play outlaw yes?

tranquil lynx
#

Yes

balmy condor
#

okay

#

imagine that even time you tab to a different target

#

the game toggles off blade flurry

tranquil lynx
#

oh shit

balmy condor
#

that's basically what you're doing

tranquil lynx
#

so u just do couple low cp ruptures for energy

#

and focus 1

balmy condor
#

they don't have to be low cp

#

they should be high cp

#

but yes

#

rupture is there to give you agi% from scent of blood

#

and energy from venomous wounds

#

and that's it

tawdry halo
#

get yourself a mouseover macro or something if you're worried about swapping targets and gimping your caustic

balmy condor
#

you get some damage out of it, but you don't need to babysit your ruptures or force garrote on cooldown or something

tranquil lynx
#

im using scroll button to swap targets

#

its very convenient

#

okay will see how it goes

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 +20's or higher, you should play bleed
  3. Even if you're doing higher, you should probably play bleed
  4. No, Fatebound is not good, you play Deathstalker in every key.

Some general concepts as to why people play different things:

  • 11.2/Season 3: Bleed has gotten stronger through some buffs and the single target damage you get from singular focus is ridiculously good with the tier set. During PTR testing many high end rogues were just playing bleed everywhere.
  • 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 build is mainly for boss damage (note: not prio, there is no significant difference in prio). Assa single target in keys is pretty bad, and some bosses during season 2 were not possible on high keys otherwise. It remains to be seen what push keys in Season 3 will bring in that regard.
  • Specific Dungeons: Rookery as an example is very boss-heavy, especially the last boss, making bleed less ideal. Rookery is not in the rotation in Season 3, and there are a lot of AoE dungeons. Dawnbreaker might be a candidate, but unsure currently.
  • 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 outside of low target cleave and higher target AoE. Cleave is for single target damage and insanely large aoe because of how much caustic and crimson tempest carry aoe damage. At the end of the day, the builds are extremely similar, but Bleed is looking to simply be the best.

nova kelp

I'm not much of a sub enjoyer in keys. Like it's not WEAK by any means. But it suffers greatly from it's points of downtime if you're not super familiar with the combo of the key and spec.

You might find yourself in spots of downtime when you need the damage.

Quick question for y'all. How "smart" is the rupture/garrote application on IC. Like, if there are 6 enemies and I rupture one (spreads to 2 others) and then I rupture to another enemy without rupture applied will it prioritize those without rupture?
