if i dont have 2 or 4 piece should i still play fatebound for st

humble verge
#

like 6

humble verge
#

i havent bothered that much

I think im 8

#

Only bees and rares and main quest

hollow fulcrum
#

ok so im 672 ilvl, no tier at all, dogshit trinkets, 678 and 671 daggers, no enchants, new cloak, belt and im doing like 1.5k

#

in st

#

wtf

humble verge
#

1,5m u mean?

hollow fulcrum
#

i feel like i 100% should be doing more damage

#

ye 1.5m

humble verge
#

but also

#

if u have no tier

#

u do dogshit damage

#

tier is a lot of dps usually

#

whatever tier it is

winged sun
#

hollow fulcrum
#

ah ok makes sense

#

so im lowkey kinda useless until at least 2 piece

jaunty sky
#

Yeah and ST is not assa job

#

Unless you pull shit on boss

hollow fulcrum
#

what spec is better for st

#

sub?

jaunty sky

Outlaw and sub

hollow fulcrum

Still had a dm coming up

waxen oyster
hollow fulcrum
#

do we ever vanish in st

jaunty sky
#

Yeah

#

On FB for coins

waxen oyster
#

Only as fatebound

hollow fulcrum
#

when should i cast it

jaunty sky
#

On DS if u fucked up mark

#

Or need to move it

waxen oyster
#

Before your first spender after hitting kb

hollow fulcrum
#

do i vanish during opener or

#

ah ok

waxen oyster
#

to continue matching edge case

hollow fulcrum
#

do you just hit mutilate in vanish or ambush

jaunty sky
#

Ambush

waxen oyster
#

pretty sure its close

#

sometimes you just vanish env though if the kb put you at 5+

granite sentinel
#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
waxen oyster
#

fatebound is so stupid

#

sometimes you just open 8m

#

from chain tails flipping

hollow fulcrum
#

can i macro vanish into kb

#

or is it on the gcd

waxen oyster
#

!macro

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

humble verge
#

wait so we arent casting kb in vanish?

#

wait

#

vanish in kb i mean

waxen oyster
#

vanish just makes the next flip 2 of the same doesnt it

Most of the raid is

Should we try to finish with 7CP always or is 5+ fine as it is?

what is the lowest amount of combo points we should be using for envenom

nova kelp
#

5

hollow fulcrum
#

im assuming 5 for fatebound but should i go higher or doesnt rlly matter

main bridge
#

for both DS and FB it depends on whether DN is up - if DN is up, then you want full combo points

#

for FB 5 is fine (and it has no DN)

if i dont have new 4set should i still play fatebound?

Yes. Also sim.

Definitely sim, fatebound should be ahead without tier and with 2pce it’s way ahead

#

For raid

did a bad key i suck at rogue must take some time i was below tank damage lmao

ive been studying rotation for hours

Is the new tier even worth trying to get? It seems to bad compared to S2. It's only simming like +100k for me

this evoker won 3 tier pieces

#

wtf

hallow glade
#

is 4pc cdr bugged

#

i thought i read that a while back

spice surge
#

Yes

#

Sometimes you just get an extra -30s on deathmark

buoyant herald
#

But not another 15 on KB?

spice surge
#

Its not permanently -30s

spice lagoon
spice surge
#

Its one use

#

Idk its just really weird

buoyant herald
#

Oh that’s super weird

spice surge
#

So you end up holding kb for 15s to line it up with DM again

buoyant herald
#

Speaking of bugs

#

Anyone know if momentum of despair has been fixed yet?

hallow glade
#

i am consistently getting and extra half cdr on kingsbane and deathmark

spice lagoon
#

because i go stealth then ambush 2x garrote , 3x rupture?

like kingsbane 8s earlier deathmark 15s early

this spec is not okay

thorn thorn

Prot warrior pretty well known for the damage it does at this point

Don't complain about strong specs in this channel. You'll summon the droolers from every other discord

main bridge
#

what's lame about it?

thorn thorn
#

In general im just not a fan that all the rogue specs have their own version of blade flurry

thorn thorn
#

I would rather something a bit more interesting than "you do ST Dam and do aoe dam too ig"

main bridge
#

i like being able to deal AOE damage

thorn thorn
#

Like its good

#

I just think its a lame way of doing aoe

#

It feels too similar to link

main bobcat
#

would you rather have caustic be something you keep up on each enemy

slim copper
#

are we able to upograde belt anymore past 701

thorn thorn

#

just to feel something

thorn thorn
#

I would rather a lot of things actually

main bobcat
#

like those guys poking holes with chopsticks into food on a grill

thorn thorn
#

I liked spatter a lot more when it was also a vehicle for KB to do damage

main bobcat
#

that'd be you bro

nova kelp
#

Caustic is v stronk. But like. I get it.

#

I understand

thorn thorn
#

Yea its an objectively strong form of aoe

#

But its just

#

idk

#

I dont think its very fun

nova kelp
#

Yeah

#

I think I agree from a design standpoint

fallow canopy
#

kb goes hard on fb

thorn thorn
#

Like I get the idea they had

#

I liked spatter more when KB was strong and it was a vehicle for KB to do damage

nova kelp
#

Its hard to separate the design from people's feel of the throughput. Not that peeps would necessarily agree either way

thorn thorn
#

But thats really only the case now in raid and on the few keys you can realistically run hybrid

thorn thorn
fallow canopy
#

if only

nova kelp
#

If only fb didn't sound like a grannies purse

thorn thorn
#

Im not saying the spec would be 100% better without spatter because the spec has undeniably benefitted from its addition

#

I personally am just not content with its current design

nova kelp
#

I think there's an argument that it both exemplifies and encourages our... "Target stickiness"

coral ibex
#

!loot

nova kelp
#

That's not to say it's necessarily a BAD thing

#

Just a thing

thorn thorn
#

Just personally I would much rather KB be a bigger part of the spec

#

Cuz spatter for me has felt extremely hollow without it since its basically just envenom doing reasonable damage for it

nova kelp
#

I just want my big dots back 😭

thorn thorn
#

I recognize im probably the minority

gritty sequoia
#

!plater

prisma monolithBOT
thorn thorn
#

I just like KB

#

And im pissy it got nerfed still

nova kelp
#

I don't think you're that alone in liking big kb

quaint spindle
#

am I reading this right; only go netherprism on fate bound?

jaunty sky
#

I think theres some design choices you could make to have both bleeds and KB + spatter work a lot better

nova kelp
#

Most people aren't specifically fans of envenom bot

jaunty sky
#

But those require putting dev hours into rogue

#

Which isnt a high priority it seems

thorn thorn
#

If I designed the tree I would split it between poisons and bleeds, and something down the middle

#

And KB on the poisons side

#

CT on the bleeds

main bobcat
#

I've only played sin as an alt for a couple seasons now and if kb was strong it would be very weird for most people, a lot of the key levels done are like 12s and in those your target rarely lives a full kb, or even like 2/3 of it

thorn thorn
#

Probably ass tree setup

nova kelp
#

I don't think it's a Dev time thing.

I think the Devs are working towards a specific design goal ATM. Beyond that who knows

uneven plume
#

What do you guys think about cataing two heroic pieces this week?

main bobcat
#

I think the best play being a very long ramping dot is a bit cringe imo

#

higher keys will let you get full value of kb if hybrid was very good but like

#

idk

#

most people wont even do that and will just feel robbed in keys lol

jaunty sky
jaunty sky
#

But idk

main bobcat
#

this is purely keys btw idk raid

thorn thorn
#

It didnt have to last the full duration to get decent value from it cuz it was a lot stronger in DF

main bobcat
#

yeah but like

#

you'll never rly feel good pressing it knowing the last few massive ticks never happen

thorn thorn
#

It was basically a ST nuke that you pressed every minute

main bobcat
#

even if it did do good damage

thorn thorn
#

And it was always noticable when the rogue applied KB to something cuz it would chunk insanely hard

jaunty sky
#

Better idea: reverse stacking kb
Starts at full dmg, dmg per tick goes down but is slowed or halted by poison application

#

Youd still want a target to live the whole thing

#

But it doesnt feel horrible if it doesnt

main bobcat
#

then you'll become a worse dev evoker wanting to have your damage running frame 1

#

with tricks its fine ig

thorn thorn
#

DM lasts longer than kb

#

More likely to be cut off early

jaunty sky
#

Idk kingsbane makes the afflicted target dmg immune for the duration to all dmg not attributed to the KB caster

#

There u go

thorn thorn
#

Alternatively

uneven plume
thorn thorn
#

Rework the stacks to just be accumulated passively, increasing the damage of your next KB

uneven plume
#

not too sure if its w.e to wait tues

thorn thorn
#

And reduce its duration to 7 seconds and tick every second

jaunty sky
thorn thorn
#

If you wanna get fancy, reduce the cd too and just make the stacks harder to get

jaunty sky
#

Unless youre hard pushing keys/RWF until reset

fallow canopy
nova kelp
uneven plume
#

no more prog in raid but want to get 3300 by tues

#

can be a boost

nova kelp
#

Well it will help with that

#

This late in the week though

uneven plume
#

yah thats what i was thinking

nova kelp
#

I'd still say hold off

fallow canopy
nova kelp
#

Like I can't talk. I DID sent my 2. But I did it day 2 for 4 piece to push prog fast as I could

#

Technically I could argue I still did the wrong thing. I just don't really care

#

My track record with vaults suggests I'm staring down 3 bracers a pair of boots and a cape most likely

jaunty sky
#

Next idea that def works

#

KB takes all unrealized dmg at current stack lvl and puts it into next poison bomb

red zealot
#

Do you want to maintain bleeds on the other hunters or just ST one and use caustic

jaunty sky
#

When it expires bc enemy died

nova kelp
misty holly
#

You guys are cooking way too hard on this Kingsbane stuff. Keep it simple. Make kingsbane a passive that simply increases all damage by 35% against any mob with King, Prince, or similar royalty title in their name.

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

yes

balmy condor
#

because the individuals in question play in like world #20 guilds

bronze pike
#

^

balmy condor
#

and ret was bad enough to bench

#

but those losers are one tricks

#

and so they got benched

#

and threw a little bitch fit

static glacier
#

imagine being a ret one trick OMEGAKEKW

thorn thorn
#

And closed their discord demanding buffs?

#

Yep

bronze pike
#

using actual issues to pad the tantrum

thorn thorn
#

All makes sense tbh

static glacier
#

bro I play 1 raid and 2 keys and im good for ret gameplay for like 4 days

thorn thorn
#

Cant say anything critiquing them or their narrative without catching a mute or ban

#

Very neat discord

thorn thorn
#

Trust

static glacier
#

i rocked up, like 10 ilvls below the other boosters last season

#

all 99s

#

braindead fucking spec

thorn thorn
static glacier
#

the limits of optimisation are judging if hammer of light will fit in next exec or to send

haughty flicker
#

that makes this whole thing so much more cursed

static glacier
#

and even that is piss easy since exec has slike 30% uptime so u 99% of the time can hold

thorn thorn
#

No idea who this is but I 100% agree with him

haughty flicker
#

real

balmy condor
static glacier
#

did I mention that holding hammer of light doesn't stop you generating towards the one after it

haughty flicker
#

we bullied our ret into playing prot for us

static glacier
#

imagine if unseen blade did that

haughty flicker
thorn thorn
#

This is only part of it

#

But it doesnt get any less cringe

haughty flicker
#

oh no i know the discord crap

static glacier
#

is it still closed?

thorn thorn
#

Yes

static glacier
#

surely they opened it

haughty flicker
#

just not the backstory behind it

#

they made a new channel called buff ret and left the old ones locked

thorn thorn
static glacier
#

bro no fucking way its still closed

#

the spec is completely fine now

haughty flicker
thorn thorn
#

Its still closed

static glacier
#

did they get addicted to the high of being overtuned with fyralath?

#

and now every tier they better be overtuned or its babyrage?

balmy condor
#

it's not even that it's closed

#

cause they made new channels

haughty flicker
#

i remember watching race to world last on amirdrassil

balmy condor
#

and said "these are the same channels"

#

so they just like

#

archived two channels

#

and made new replacements

#

so like

static glacier
#

you know I was telling a ret in my guild that they ended up being buffed to like top 5 st last raid

balmy condor
#

??????

haughty flicker
#

and a ret press legendary axe when the boss was at 5% and wiped the raid because he couldnt move

thorn thorn
#

To push their own narrative

static glacier
#

he said no they weren't strong

thorn thorn
#

Yeh

haughty flicker
#

then the next day he was benched

balmy condor
#

they essentially just fucking renamed the channels lmao

haughty flicker
thorn thorn
#

Ret is never beating the allegations of being the biggest crybabies of wow

balmy condor
#

W protest move

#

ah yes

thorn thorn
#

Me when aug was nerfed into being unplayable at the start of S2 but rets cause a whole protest over being 3rd last

static glacier
#

ret that spec that isn't that good

#

xd

#

20y melee my fucking ass

thorn thorn
#

I just think its funny

static glacier
#

like I get why the spec is popular, its flashsy easy and you do great burst on 30s cd

balmy condor
#

it's like if instead of gandhi starving himself in the streets he starved himself for 3 hours in front of a mcdonalds before walking in and getting a cheeseburger OmegaLUL

thorn thorn
#

Cuz aug got nerfed into being actually unplayable undertuned except for like 3 people in the world

#

But they are causing a massive stink over being bottom 3

#

omegalul

static glacier
#

but surely that can't mean you lose any semblance of reality

thorn thorn
#

No we in wyrmrest didnt lose any semblance of reality

#

Sael just told people to play dev if they didnt wanna be deadweight cuz thats where the spec was for the first third of S2

bronze pike
#

its just a dumb stunt

static glacier
#

the spec was above middle on every fight in 11.1.7

bronze pike
#

but like the response to it is high key also silly in my opinion

#

but its w/e

static glacier
#

"we've been ignored"

bronze pike
#

i like to think its more than just damage

#

like fatebound for yall

#

herald was abandoned

thorn thorn
#

Yea its just an example of extreme delusion to an extent

static glacier
#

how can the argument of one of our hero trees is ignored hold

thorn thorn
#

Like it does nothing but hurt the community

#

And what reputation it has

balmy condor
static glacier
#

like two thirds of the specs can't choose between hero trees

balmy condor
#

"what's the problem"
damage.

thorn thorn
balmy condor
#

that's like almost verbatim

bronze pike
static glacier
#

if it was a bug or gameplay

bronze pike
#

but ya

#

its just

haughty flicker
#

they did quite literally lead off with claiming damage was the issue

static glacier
#

id say fair enough

bronze pike
#

whining

static glacier
#

but dmg tuning

haughty flicker
#

they went on to mention herald but

bronze pike
#

cause no damage and benched in raid

haughty flicker
#

the way they went about it is just insanely cringe

static glacier
#

whispyr we need more from you as our tc

bronze pike
static glacier
#

and i dont mean sims or dmg optimisations

balmy condor
haughty flicker
#

hurts people who are actually looking for help right at the start of the tier

thorn thorn
#

Big whoop, plenty of specs have been benched in the past

thorn thorn
#

They clearly never played feral

#

Or WW

bronze pike
#

like i said in other server

static glacier
bronze pike
#

im happy ive been let off the leash

thorn thorn
#

Its literally just "Reeeeeee I got benched for once cuz im undertuned reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

balmy condor
#

it's also just completely delusional if you think blizzard cares whatsoever

haughty flicker
#

yeah it accomplishes absolutely nothing

thorn thorn
balmy condor
#

it's like thinking amazon cares if you cancel weekly bingo night at the retirement home

haughty flicker
#

like they were getting that 5% buff regardless of anything they did

static glacier
#

best part is we'll never have confirmation if it mattered (it deffo didn't xd)

#

so we can meme it to hell

thorn thorn
#

As we should

balmy condor
#

they idea that blizzard would see a class discord crying and hand out a buff is laughable

thorn thorn
#

Every class discord that pulls this kind of stunt deserves the memage it gets

balmy condor
#

they probably do the opposite I'm ngl

haughty flicker
#

i for one will definitely suggest closing the discord any time we arent top dps

haughty flicker
static glacier
#

nah, no shot blizz would spite their biggest playerbase

balmy condor
#

like just the optics of cry = buff

#

is crazy

haughty flicker
#

if they react at all it would be to not buff them so this shit isnt encouraged

balmy condor
#

they wouldn't do that

main bridge
#

the worst part about the ret protest is that there are all these people going into other servers and suggesting they "lock down"

static glacier
#

if they'd cave to any spec ingame it would be ret

haughty flicker
balmy condor
static glacier
thorn thorn
#

The other class discords (most of them) arent run by a bunch of immature morons

static glacier
#

also i tried the cleave build in streets

#

basically same dps as bleed

haughty flicker

#

idk whast going on i just got here.

#

hope everyone is well

thorn thorn
#

I think streets might be one to play cleave though tbh

#

That and dawnbreaker

static glacier
#

dawn has a lot of aoe

haughty flicker
#

just play sub

static glacier
#

id play ol if i had an ok wep for it

sand otter
#

i just did streets and im just playing bleed because i wont be doing higher than 10s and i also suffer from the bad.

haughty flicker
#

real

#

i suffer from the bad too

sand otter
#

proof of my badness

static glacier
#

oof

haughty flicker
#

oh god ok

#

you win

thorn thorn
#

Dawnbreaker just has a lot of high health enemies/minibosses you can get good KB value on

#

But you could also just

#

Play bleed

static glacier
thorn thorn
#

Mfw key parses

sand otter
#

keys are being timed and im top on thje meters each pull.... but im not parsing well. so im failing something hard.

thorn thorn
static glacier
#

only 2 dmg logs sadge

haughty flicker
#

as long as the key is timed you did enough damage

sand otter
#

yeah i timed all these, but they were jsut 2-7s

haughty flicker
#

also the logs you linked are points not damage

thorn thorn
#

Key parses are just a comparison of the level you do for the key

static glacier
sand otter
#

i pug so i either get good groups, or someone leaves after the first 3 pulls. lol

haughty flicker
#

insanely real

I've seen a few ppl commenting on the same thing for io variance, idk the actual answer

does that mean we now need to time all 13s to get 3k? =/

static glacier
#

y'know what really got to me

main bridge
#

i think all logs, raid and key, are not necessarily an indicator of good performance. typically the best logs are a combination of performance and padding or people doing degenerate stuff to help the player parse

static glacier
#

there was a 12 streets

#

I signed for

#

they took a ret

#

not me

sand otter
#

i know key logs dont matter but i didnt do too bad in S2

static glacier

it at least made me feel like i was improving lol

Even when you were more geared

static glacier

!tier

thorn thorn
#

Season just started

prisma monolithBOT
#

Get your Season 2 Two Piece immediately, as it is a very powerful gain, stronger than both previous bonuses combined. This is true for both hero talents. The 4 piece is another big step up in dps for both hero talents on top of that.

thorn thorn
#

So naturally your performance will be shittier compared to the masses

thorn thorn
#

Especially if you compared it to a previous season when you would have easily been more geared

sand otter
#

oh true, i forgot parses comapre to literally everyone else.

#

well, i dont die, keys get timed an dps go up. im not a Mythic raider and just goal for 10s across thje board and AOTC.

#

so, im pretty much a casual

unreal tide
#

show delve parses or you're trolling

sand otter
#

i dont think anyone wants to see my delves

#

thats just.... torture

thorn thorn
# sand otter so, im pretty much a casual

Thats fine im just saying its being dishonest to yourself to compared your performance to the masses at the start of a season vs last season when you were more geared and had more time

Is it worth to use gildeds on bracers next week or just use the free runes spark and save the gildeds for something else

haughty flicker
#

if you have myth track to send gilded on its almost certainly worth more on that

#

if you have literally nothing else then ig send gilded craft

nova kelp
#

I'm personally probably crafting a neck tbh but it depends on what your biggest upgrades are

cunning needle
#

save gilded for myth track pieces imo

#

ideally big stat items as well (chest/legs/shoulders)

#

or trinkeys

haughty flicker
#

im making free heroic bracers personally

cunning needle
#

yeah

#

sending gilded on crafted wrists is kinda

#

wasteful

nova kelp
#

Upgrading my patch item is pretty low priority yeah

solar wyvern
worldly nebula
#

If you have 4p it's kinda always worth it to craft one of the big stat items with gilded. Personally gonna craft chest

nova kelp
#

The only reason I won't craft chest legs etc is because I know I won't be using them in the long run

But that's a personal option/choice

haughty flicker
#

yeah i like sending bracers bc its just a free slot completed

#

maybe not the biggest possible upgrade but it feels nice

#

and can just use gildeds on something else

#

also if i get a shitter vault i have an item to slam socket on right away

#

im not hof though so i can do whatever i want

nova kelp
#

I just typically have ATROCIOUS vault luck so I have little faith of seeing a good neck/ring and the options available from raid are HIGHLY sought after.

So they're probably highish priority crafts for me

!bleed

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

  1. If you have to ask, you should play bleed
  2. If you're not doing +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.
