but offhand daggers also happen to have the least amount of stats out of any slot in the game
(daggers in general I guess)
Big up to b-lizzard for naming the crafted daggers
- dagger
- stabber
so it's a stat stick with no stat
Well so you suggest to craft wrist instead ?
offhand daggers are basically permanently reserved to hold embellishments these days cause they're so pointless otherwise
yeh
You only want to put enough ruptures out to stack out scent of blood right? or keep going if you have a pull of 10 mobs?
Noted thank u very much for your answers
What embellishments do you have?
Or would this be a first craft of one?
Have a a 720 main hand with sublimation
you can put out a couple more if you'd like, but it wouldn't be for damage, it would be for the insurance that you still have max scent of blood in case something dies
These are my 2 daggers :
Just like you’re permanently reserved to hold my love and/or balls
My guild crafter saved me on this one, I requested the dagger and then he told me that I were about to be with an intelect main hand xD
So you have Sublimation on the 720? Do you have a second embellishment or are you looking to craft it?
Nothing else
i took it to the chin and cried a little 
I'm at work, what does Sublimation do again?
Do you use nether prism at 18 stacks only or macro it with death mark?
Bring secondary stats up to 10 stacks

What are we talking about?
crafting the dagger instead of the stabber @viscid spear
On a target dummy that would be at full health all the time it doesnt matter that much, its only really vanish but its minor. In practice against real bosses or dungeons we have things like big pulls, execute and damage amps that often favour having it maxed at 18

I have a question: Do I always wait to use Envenom until the target has 10 stacks of Agonizing Poison, when the Envenom buff is about to expire should I try to maintain 2 stacks of Envenom for higher uptime, or is it better to just use Envenom whenever I have enough energy/combo points?
when i'm low energy
envenom all the time
the idea is to keep using finishers so you can get back into Darknest Night
guys in m+ with bleed build why my single target damage is ass?
because the bleed build doesn't have good single target
cuz u playing ass'a
because you're not playing sub (real answer, its weak ST)
Stealthi got in there first but I felt bad not giving an actual answer 
Sadge
why is deathstalker tier set such hot garbage compared to fatebound
im pretty sure i did more dps in m+ with old 4pc
dungeon slice was 6.3m vs 5.8m sim
because blizz don't want to admit fatebound is a trash hero talent and try to force people to use it, LUL
thats considering like 670-680ilvl pieces vs 704
humm guys is coldblood trigering on kings bane?
no
the new tier does not lose you 500k
link the sims
this is why you run cold blood on fatebound, you macro it to KB
they're correct
probably more of an error in intepretation
no the new tier gains me 500k
you macro them together
but its also with ilvl upgrade
so im pretty sure the ilvl increase is accounting for most of the damage gain lol
compared to fatebound where 4pc is 20-25% dmg boost
I'm pretty sure it isn't
in st
Tanks that don’t let you restealth >
fb 2pc is pretty overtuned
I didn't see anything in the guides about using the 4pc bonus for deathstalker, but does it make sense to use Shiv with 1 stack remaining and 6 combo points, followed by an envenom, to instantly reset to 3 stacks? or is it better to hold shivs for deathmarks
Seems like it is good for a quick ST burst but not sure if it's worth the cost of potentially missing a double shiv when deathmark is back up
So basically just if I do it make sure I do it so that it will be back up for deathmark... got it
yeh, you just do the same thing as before
I guess there won't be any difference if I Shiv, Vanish, Deathmark, Kingsbane right? cuz then I could macro my prism to vanish and forget about it
totally fine
what's the tech with vanish in fatebound st build? i understand it's for the coins or something, but i cant find the interaction?
oh thx
Wc3 icon
2004 recycling
that icon is re-used for multiple things
Do you really think wanna work on rogue for more then 5 minutes 💀💀💀
is there a way to sim these entropy fingers?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/hrmWNXnctG34vfZj?fight=79&type=casts&view=timeline&source=1150
hey guys can someone tell me if im doing something wrong ?
Shiv before deathmark
mate
do you know how many icons are re-used
Otherwise looks fine
are you guys malding over frking talent icons now
That’s a great icon

so im doing everything ok ?
wtf
just need to swap shiv with DM GCD ?
in M+ when do we use Netherprism? On CD always or at DM cd?
U shiv before deathmark
Quick question: anyone know of the caustic spatter bug on manifestations has been fixed on forgeweaver or is that still a thing?
If*
need to DM 1st then shiv y ?
The other way around
Hey, sorry for the question, see everyone playing bleed build with subterfuge, what exactly do u do during subturfuge? Do you just do ur normal rotation of applying bleeds and using your spenders/builders etc or is there a different rotation while subterfuge is active?
Shiv>DM>KB with 2p
Shiv before DM and then shiv the last 8 seconds of DM
recommend 2d craft
U shivved after dm fell off
do we always use evenom with full combo points or 4+?
oh nice
Otherwise ur parse was prob impacted by just kill time and outside of CDs or something
5+ or max cp with DN
5+
7 on darkest night
depending on pack size,
if its big, spread all your bleeds make sure to have 4-5 ruptures running
then go into normal rotation
and hold 2 stacks or is 1 fine too?
dump envenoms as u get them
ok
and burst when kb/dm are up etc etc
cuz i often starve energy
that is normal
!shiv
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
if ur in a fight with adds
till almost full
just rupture snipe for bonus energy
but full ST
full ST u just constantly send
!gear
the only real min max is to hold energy a little before kingsbane
and even that is miniscule
I mald over everything
not on paper no
Yeah only pool energy if <150 energy a few sec before kb
it gets hard if u have to start considering moving timers
Outside DM
moving timers?
i mold
is there a macro to target the guy with deathstalkers mark, im having trouble finding him again sometimes in big pulls
what do you use for nameplates
idk deafult
holy
get Plater or Elvui then
u can find some good nameplates online and customise them

What do you guys think?
Which Spec suits best for M+ and Raid?
Still haven't crafted a Weapon, because i cant decide... xD
Whats the reason why first GCD is Garrote over Ambush as FB
Does Ambush give less CP than a mutilate
Because you ambush on DS for the mark. and you dont have to do that with FB
i understand that but doesnt ambush give more CP than a mutilate
But it litteraly does not matter how you open btw. you just want your bleeds out as fast as possible.
when does a ring usually sim more than jastors? full hero track seems to not be enough
it's finished
on no crit it gives 1 more CP yes
so then wouldnt it be better to just open with ambush and garrote after
cant u just craft a dagger and play it offhand if u wanna go outlaw?
I think it's because it doesnt matter. but good qeustion. idk
Here's my personal feedback on rogue in TWW; I hope you guys will begin a discussion about this and blizzard uses our sentiments to inform their choices for rogue in midnight. https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/rogues-in-tww-engineered-frustration/585745 I go over all specs in varying detail.
This post aims to discuss the various frustrations of rogue design throughout The War Within. Tl;dr: Why does this class have so much intentionally designed frustration? Hey all, Mo here I’ll start with a little bit about me to give context to my perspective on things. I started the game in MoP and mained ranged casters (primarily warlock a...
it probably doesnt matter, but i just hate when you have to double mut when you get unlucky lol
you can ask whispyr
he can answer
IK the wowhead opener says to shiv when the first one falls of. But some top logs are leaving like 12-13 sec between shivs so i assume having it for the last 8 sec of KB instead of DM? Which onme is the correct opener?
for fatebound?
in your DM window. you just shiv after the first shiv ended.
if someone else did it different
he didnt play correctly.
turns out you can make mistakes and still rank 1 cause of rng
ok just wanted to make sure as they had r1 on soul and did the same XD
Lilly obtained, farewell ecodome
But. basically. you just want to prolong your shivs. and if your doing that then your playing properly. and then rng jesus needs to bless you
also kill times matter a lot
for me if my guild slacks on execute. i parse higher
what are people playing in streets? bleed build feels kinda painful in single target
just bleed
Last week on the 3th boss i parsed orange. this week i parsed green. because spatter couldnt do the job it could do last week.
went from 800 mill spatter to 300 mill spatter
its super dependant
well jastors is also being buggy atm so it simming higher might not matter on some fights
where it just doesnt work
whats buggy about it?
(from my own logs)
Mythic Plexus: 92% uptime / Heroic Plexus: Literally 0% uptime
Heroic Fractillus: 99.76% uptime / Normal Fractillus: Again literally 0% uptime
Heroic Loom'ithar 77% (seems low?) and last weeks loomithar was 0% uptime
just did a quick +9 to practice and found myself barely keeping up with people at a lower ilvl than me, i must be doing something seriously wrong... anyone have a sec to take a look and give input? One thing is that it seemed hard to keep caustic splatter up in this one because trash was dying so fast https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/aNczA6LVFymn4xv8?fight=last&type=summary
uh
I might know why getting to spatter was hard
not only are these not 5cp ruptures, you're delaying crimson tempest
thats some gaming right there
bro loves rupture

lol this is the feedback i need thanks guys
you should only realistically be casting 2-3, MAX 4 ruptures on a giga pull
and you never cast a finisher with less than 5 cp
so the way this should pan out
Ah okay. I was focusing on getting as many ruptures up as possible on giga pulls
is you ambush garrote, rupture twice, then garrote garrote into your crimson tempest
look at the damage man
also casting shivs this close together is simply wasting time
it doesn't pandemic
so you have 4pc, a full 11 second shiv
and you cast the second after only 6 seconds
you wasted half of that shiv

basically regardless of pack size?
on the very next pull, this is arguably even more unhinged
no he's keeping the iron wire running
why are we just munching like 40 combo points
yes
THAT PICTURE IS HELLA CURSED HOLY
Lol im cracking up guys
Unraveling the ironwire down the length of the dungeon
and these issues are basically present on every pull fwiw
Zdps support rogue
this is arguably the best one I've seen
but we're still overcapping a million combo points for absolutely no reason
sometimes you just gotta iron wire man scratch that itch
I need to add a weakaura sound for when i'm at 5 combo points. I clearly have trouble tracking when I hit 5
and then immediately after that you're just sacking your shiv again
I regret to inform you he is not running ironwire
i made my own combo point tracker where it turns red when i can use a finish
This could definitely be helpful for learning, sounds are very nice. There are also some CP WAs that will change color
Yeah mine does currently but i'm so overstimulated by everything I lose focus of it
I cant count so I have an actual number of CPs displayed on my screen
oh shi-
yeah you just gotta have more expierence i geuss
I just started playing rogue with 11.2 after playing prot paladin for 10 years so im still learning 😄
also I'm not sure what the context is but if you're going to vanish it's to spread bleeds generall, which you...... kind of do, I guess
except 30 seconds later you're vanishing again
and that just can't be correct
then a sound would probably be really good probably
this was cause a chain pull i believe where i didn't get to restealth and there was a new pack pulled
Bleeding peeping Tom
yeah I mean on some of them you can vanish
but if it's not a huge pack then just bleed them manually and hold vanish for something better
why do we shiv before deathmark with fatebound?
you can use the energy from the last pack to push you into the next
!shiv

buffing the coins
anyways, the next gripe I got, I ain't done with you
why are we pressing our 2min cd for the first time
Rush oh Raggy
in M+ when do we use Netherprism? On CD always or at DM cd?
3:30 minutes in
Yeah I know that one was a huge mistake, i missed using it on the first sea monster so i held it for the second sea monster
not only the second sea monster
you spent the dungeon holding deathmark for the next dungeon
that's 8 deathmarks in 24 minutes
you managed to turn your 2min cd into a 3min cd
so that's something i'm not used to doing at all in general since ive never played a 2min class, should just blow it basically always then? I always feel like i need to be holding it for something important. But clearly that next important thing is the next dungeon
how does Incorporeal warpclaw + improlvised seaforium pacemaker sim more than netherprism + improvised seaforium pacemaker
does it netherprism not sim properly or something
with this bleed build we're playing now you don't even need to really care about your deathmark all that much
you just throw it out onto the biggest fucker you see and it just does the work
i'm so obsessed with making sure i get the full use out of it i just dont use it at all. Use it always then, got it
good trinket yep
yeh
should we use it in packs for the DP spatter or just send it on solo big bois?
?
dp spatter is so meaningless
are we pressing Crimson Tempest on St ?
with a bleed build yeah
in execute or just always ?
no, I asked if netherprism doesnt sim properly, you said "good trink yep" ??
always
ight tysm !!
@verselle :>
So along that logic then, i shouldnt worry so much if splatter isn't optimal. Casting tempest early is more important
now I started looking at my own m+ logs, so when going into a pack with darkest night and combo points already this is what I usally do, ambush for mark and then just not consume DN right away, it feels way better but idk if its correct
you asked how a trinket combo sims better than another trinket combo and I said good trinket, netherprism is simming fine
yes
this is correct, spatter into DN then CT
alright perfect
awesome, thanks so much Whispyr, very appreciating of all your work and this thorough roasting, definitely needed it.
I'll work on not overcapping combo, using big CDs asap, not overlapping shivs, and stop focusing on trying to garrote 30 mobs
for what it's worth when you got to a boss it looks a lot better
should maintain crimson tempest even in single target
Yeah i have no trouble with my ST rotation usually, and my raid logs as fatebound are generally great. It's as soon as I hit AOE I have a problem
i have never done that so that's another problem
but just glancing at some of the bosses I can't really complain about anything
I had a 19 stack fatebound tails, what's the record here?
when doing this with DN already up do we get both benefits of the applied DsM and DN proc
this guy in my disc got 35
my highest this tier is 30 in execute cds with prism on fract 
jeeze
what the fuck
!macros
just flip some coins 
I love this
Hey peeps, maining my assassination rogue for the first time since ICC, struggling to get my rhythm right. Anyone got a TLDR?
Whispyrs got a 5 hour video is that tldr?
Apply bleeds get money
!gear
apply bleeds
envenom into caustic splatter
thats like 80% of the rotation
anticipation comback when?
dude I keep swapping back to retail and forgetting I dont have that
this looks very funny
and I keep trying to smoke bomb and im sad when it doesnt work

Which slot don't we want tier in, if we have 5pcs?
whatever the sim says to use something else in
whatever sims best
whatever extra piece you have that sims better if it does
you know when I started doing youtube I didn't think my community would push my niche into long-form podcast style conversational videos
is fatebound simming 700k over my deathstalker normal or did i miss something?
yeah that sounds about right
that seems so big of a dif
it is indeed
they giga buffed FB, so that it finally can see some play at all
fatebound is almost 15% ahead in single target
gotta say fatebound + netherprism is insanely fun in raid
im an outlaw player, why is fatebound tierset buggy, it f's my little brain when it misaligns because of double dip my dm with trinket
i have cd i press cd

in general I always liked the feel of fateboud (coin sounds, 5 combo point mutilate potential) but capstone rng made me want to blow up
ngl, i really like how it has a niche now, but i kind of hate how shit one spec is for the other form of content
either shit single target good aoe or vise versa
it suits you though, good blend of entertaining and informative 
is this the first time fatebound is actually good somewhere though?
it was "playable" in ST season 1
yes
like, thats why they did that giga buff
otherwhise FB would have ended the expansion with literally a 0% playrate lmao
thats good i guess, how exactly could they give it good aoe?
remove the frking self nerf nodes
like you could play fb and high roll your coin luck on sikran in nerubar palace
kyveza sikran it was playable but not worth the headache cause DS was within like 2%?
self nerf?
not remembering what those were
it does 30% reduced damage when adds are around
thank you kanye very cool
delivered doom/fate interwined
the coins?
yes
and deal fate kinda aswell
thats kind of dumb
cus that node turns more and and more ussules if you add more targets
Deathstalker is just so much more engaging though like FB is basically completely passive except for one small opener change
but DS can be frustrating when you lose mark
real and true
could make this do both effects all the time
other classes are harnessing otherworldly powers and hitting bosses with the fucking sun
and we're flipping coins
can someone pls send me their sim so i can compare
how about it instead of flipping a coin
5 min 1 boss pref
being a cosmicly good gambler to kill the universe goes kinda hard tho
yall dont play with the high roller title and it shows
damn like a kickflip
that would be sick brah 🔥
that would go crazy
insane dmg boost no?
Skatebound
radical
how do you play in this situation: DS 4 set, you have Dn active and shiv off cd. Do you 1. use shiv and do not care about the -1 stack that you waste or do you 2. dn without shiv and shiv after?
just do the dry shiv
thats the rogue herotalent we need
no i think its definitely better to cycle your mark with shiv
consume your last stack with shiv
if u wanted to be super smart about it use the dry shiv to get into darkest night
then dry shiv on the DN
yeah you gotta have some foresight if you wanna minmax
its at best a sub 1% minmax
also has anyone noticed if you ambush for mark while you have DN and then shiv, it consumes a stack
so you have DN and 2/3 dsm mark
but yeah use your own foresight to see that u have a darkest night coming up in your dry shiv window
and just play it properly
prism pull into 3min ?
AHH
fatebound 4pc yes, deathstalker with DM
and DM with deathstalker
but if theres like hectic aoe and you lose track or something just send shiv envenom cause thats big dam in aoe
smart 
i think this can be tech
or at least a dps gain
vanish ambush so you can dry shiv and not waste a mark stack when you fucked up
well youd only be doing it in dry shiv
cause vanish is useless anyways
dont waste shivs
you dont wait 3 minute with deathstalker?
youre saving shivs for KB and DM
how did i just have a 31sec cd kb on pull?
using random shivs for a darkest night is not a gain
how accurate is wowanalyzer these adys?
4p bug
not very
no
wowanalyzer still thinks echoing reprimand is in the game
just post logs in here for a review
it is
it just has a wig and dresses differently
massive talent
i thought the rule was we only link 99% logs with 1m30s killtime and perfect comp
!gear
Deathstalker is still a 2min class, you dont have deathmark back for prism at 3min
you know what i love about ER
they reworked the visual for it, even made that a part of the patchnotes
and then like 1month later removed it

Yeah I figured out thanks
sword = Outlaw = cringe
Is there any resources to read up on best use cases for netherprism?
macro to deathmark, or use every 3 min on fatebound for giga min max
if there's a damage amp in the fight, hold for that unless you'll overcap
Sounds good, thanks
Wasn’t sure if holding till it stacked outweighed using every DM, good to know
whens a good idea to change off the crit belt ? ( D.I.S.C )
well I have a myth track belt that when fully upgraded sims 0.4% better



how to play forgeweaver boss fight? as sin rogue
its like i cant aoe on raid bosses
should i go Fate bound?
huge upgrade
it is +10k stamina though which is nice
kinda crazy to me that they put items like that in
like the ring from sirens isle not so long ago
just doublechecking. But theres no real reason to track fatebound coins in my own weakauras right?
high score
not any practical use but fun to track gambling
trade in your bonus coins at the kiosk outside the raid
is this real chat ?

Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
secret ravenholdt decoder ring
is unyielding netherprism trink so good for us y?
big burst on DM window
so stack and then DM with it
and a bit of passive damage in between
so its reall good right
50k agility tends big dps
yep bind it into dm via a macro
yep
also cuz you'll have it in execute on most bosses in heroic
and on mythic its nice for burst phase timers
its flexible too but tbh you just always use it with dm
unless the boss is almost dead and dm isnt up id just pop it
not true
in fatebound u use it on 3 min mark
in deathstalker u use off cd
you can use it on a 3 min mark, says you can just bind it into dm
Bind to vanish and shiv vanish dm is nice
^
you macro it to vanish?
hmm
just tunnel the boss / echo either Fatebound or Deathstalker. If you play Deathstalker, save a vanish because pylons fucks with your mark.
the harder the content, the better i can see that being
so always use it on DM no matter how much stacks?
since the bosses will be alive for a long time
if you are macroing it to that, then yeah
the stacks arent variable, every 10 seconds you will get one
I mean you're never using it outside of deathmark
Like maybe you just send it at the end of a fight for funsies
yeah its a waste to not use during your burst
but i never do 2 use trinks right
Ive seen quite a few diff ideas around the opener for fatebound. Is the opener rotation for fatebound not optimal on wowhead? yeseterday i think i saw someone say to kb before dm with fatebound
cuzx i got lilly too
yep thats the only time, bit more damage when the boss it at like 5% or whatever
prism is a pretty cool trinket, the flexability is neat
no
you cant use 2, 20 second timer if you pop one
so you could never have two use trinkets for one burst window
so i replace lilly
i dont think you cast kb before dm
what's the point of having 1:30 cds if every mechanic ever comes every 1:30 mins right when my cds come
that sounds wrong
Thats what i thought.
why would you want kb ticking without the DM effect
you do shiv before dm tho
shiv DM kb

yeah kb after dm for sure, kb damage is disgusting because of dm
well tbf kb doesnt get dupliated by dm so it doesnt rlly matter cuz it'll stack to 50 p fast anyway
yea but all your poisons aren't duplicated in that first second
so
its still a loss
you arent ramping as quickly
yea its optimal to do dm kb
yea
yea DM doubles all your poisons
imagine if it was duped lmao
yeh
if dm doubled kb we'd be kb spec again
you dont want to be kb: the spec
May be a dumb question, but the 4pc triggers everytime you get fateful ending right? So my cds could get reduced every 7 same coin tosses, not just reducing my cds for the rest of the fight if I get it once?
yeah one cd being your entire damage isnt great
sure, KB could get doubled, just nerf kb by 50%
Thats sub already, rogue doesnt need a second one
dont look at a log
i unironically think that would be a good clarity change LOL
you might see envenom as 45% of your damage
this would just make our out of dm damage even worse lol
But ye fatebound is a lot of it like that too
make DM a 1:30 and kb a 45 second and you have yourself a deal
actually this breakdown looks good imo
on another note, is anybody finding a ring that sims higher than jastor diamond mythic
i like it
idt any hero ones do it so far
logic gate omega
on mythic
Whats the best way to use prism in m+ bleed build
is it just before u pop ur last stack of DSM and macro it with DM
persobnally ij ust use it whenever its a big pack and im not holding too long
I think it had to be a myth track halls of atonnement ring for me, the high mast low haste one
yea this thing is getting outsimmed
yea that one is a 45k dps loss to equip for me
do i send a 720 bracer craft or do i craft a 704 trinket or just save gilded crests
u do not craft a trinket
lol
it won't be a trinket craft
but it might be bracver
bruh just go farm 7-10 keys for hero track trinkets
i'd suggest farming out more gear and getting to 701 before u worry about it, then simming once ur gear is a bit more locked in
dont waste a spark on that
ive ran like 20 keys and havent gotten a trinket
bet
I did 40 Aldani's...
do more
wild
is heroic hard? still havent attempted
Yeah Grim was really grim
im bis after 10 keys gl everybody
had 55 attempts on it and got it at 56
i got myth track lilly from vault, safe to assume thats my on use for the season lol
I got hero lily on my first eco-dome, then got hero netherprism first fractilus 😎
what dungeons should i run for trinkets
now mastery > crit ?
eco, ara kara, priory?
do you sim droptimzier with dungeon slice or ST?
eco dome, priory, flood, ara kara
im optimizing for raid rn
oh shit i forgor about floodgate
so im running st
I have been messing with spell queue lately but it doesnt seem to help. Im noticing that sometimes i will over cap on combopoints even though im pressing a spender.
you need a 90s trinket for fatebound
ill optimize for M+ after dimensius probably
dawnbreaker isnt terrible either, has devout ring + crystal which isnt terrible
getting a 2m trinket is troll this season unless you get one of each
Latency is around 30 -40 ms and spell queue has been tested between 250- 400
actually if you only m+ priory signet prob better than lily
since you will be only deathstalker
never fatebound
well i raid but nothing ever fucking drops
then lily for sure
ight
need that 90s cd
yup this is true Signet sims 0.5% higher than Lily
if you want guaranteed mastery during DM though priory is harder to balance stats around
flood is stonks, it has a good helmet drop too
I've dropped the boots like 7 times
it was hard last week but the extra like 10 ilvl people got since the patch dropped made it silly
blizz design team deciding to make antenna bis for every dps just about and have it a raid drop was just troll
dimensius p1 heal check was insane last week LOL
i also felt a lot more useful with 4p since i could send CD's more often
fatebound on dimensius saved my life
is there any breakpoint for bleeds vs caustic spam after the 5 target agility buff?
Bleeds continue to scale p well with ruptures and garrotes up to 8 targets
So I'd recommend slapping one more out there
In ID
^ Bleed build specific advice
im on +11/+12 right now, its sometimes hard to judge id a pull survies the full duration
Yeah realistically thats just a low key problem
Everything sorta falls over at that key level
You get used to making the judgement call as you play more
if scent is maxed, caustic
if scent no maxed, no caustic
you should keep bleeds out on all targets bc of sudden demise procs
not a demisemaxxer?
that sounds more like +4 keys ^^
spread improved garrotes on everything, ruptures for scent
i thought this was about when packs are dying
Whispyr do you tab target when putting out bleeds with IC in a big m+ pull?
mb
I can't be fucked
i have timed 11's and a 12 but even when iget accepted as soon as they see no 4pc they kick me lol
Noted
That’s why pugging is stupid. You’re just carrying losers
i guess no raid loot
zero tier from raids : /
nothing in the vault either?
vault was mythic lilly, so no choice on any tier really lol
i'm still rocking 2p aswell from 2 raidclears on 2 chars i got 2 transmog pieces and a grand total of 0 SET ITEMS
yea i got a total of 1 piece from 2 weeks of normal and heroic raid
just got lucky in vault
sometime u win sometime u lose
i think its just a stupid design to make it so you have to win tier in order to get 4pc on week 2
i also havent gotten a single piece of gear from my last 10 dungeon runs
and the pieces i got before that were 3 chest pieces
i did lfr this week, and was the only person on my tier token in the raid, and none dropped lol
!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
yea my guild has spent every omnitoken on zenith tier so far
i think i got one of the only token drops from normal mode
makes so much sense that the only token with 4 classes on it drops the least lol
Man exile and perfecto look so thrilled to be forced into subt on prog lol.

is it normal to be completley energy starved in m+ ST?
feels like my ST is so fcking ass
!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.
Anyone have time to take a look at this?
Is there a good plater profile that helps track garrote and bleed targets?

ur cd usage seems pretty cursed - you sent DM every 2min, but ur kingsbane is super desynced, also looks like you lost ur mark for multiple minutes throughout the fight - collector's don't refund ur mark on death
your uptime on both rupture and garrote more specifically is low; you also did not use a single tempered potion
on a 7 minute fight per your log, you can use on first DM and 6min DM
Anyone know an easy way to make sure your was are up to date
each time i try smth they are not in date, even when import them right after they still feel out of date as everyone elses work minus mine
you appear to have been missing crippling poison
that kidna a big one

Hello, sorry for being this out of the discussion, but im trying to do a macro for the assassination of the poisons, is posible to do it? im having problems and only one of the poisons works
On fatebound, am I chaining the 2nd shiv or waiting a bit to sync it up with the end of kingsbane? Or does it matter
on heroic dimensius, CDs on CD?
End of KB

theres some in there
on that fight, fatebound is better
either way this opener is wrong
fatebound beter for that fight, also ur weapons don't have enchants
your belt is also on a bad effect
is it any good to craft 2 weapons instead of one+dagger if i dont get myth track weapon?
You also shiv and then shiv 5.5 sec later which means the first shiv isnt even done
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/PFMRd4HfqTLt8KCn?fight=39&type=damage-done&source=47 a link for anyone who wants to check it out. Looking to get into 90+'s thinking what I can optimize
do we pool to maximize envenom uptime on fatebound or are we still spamming away?
a crafted dagger is barely worse than a 6/6 myth weapon
spam
you only need good dagger tho
the offhand one is just a stat stick basically
so you can just mainhand the crafted till you randomly get a myth one
!tier
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.
how much % is 4p compared to 2p in dmg upgrade ? roughly
I guess shiv should come before king's. or is there more?
significant

you should have an envenom before DM and KB
so ambush->garrote->rapture->shiv->envenom if 5+CP->KB->DM?
in fatebound opener u dont make +5cp before cast rupture or evenom?
yes you do
ambush - garr - rupt - env - dm - shv -kb
finishers at 5+
are you hard swap to adds on loom myth?
but also play FB for fights like that
not Deathstalker
DB better for ST fights? is FB also better in loom? what about soulbinder?
check wowhead guide talent section and under there is raid talents suggestion for each boss

Has to be issue with macro then regarding the tempered potion, thank you for pointing that out
did u see waht i posted
very important stuff
I am, couldnt reply to all at once
!gear
Hate to admit it, but I think that might of been missing far more often than just this one 
For some idiotic reason I didnt realize crippling poison applies for that
its clear about it by omitting the words lethal or non-lethal
But if u just treat weapon poisons
as meaning the lethal ones
then can see where u go wrong
Yeah it was the latter for me, not sure if its something I just remembe from earlier expansions or something and didnt think twice
what fights fate bound what fights death if its not too much to ask lol

its outlaw's job to mount farm
any suggestions on FB? only ever played Deathstalker.
learn to do the opener
My question was actually on the always use check
and the rest of it is just basic sin rogue
Dumb, quick question: I dont hold deathmark and kingsbane for vanish when it has like 30 sec cd, right? (fatebound)
if you dont use the check it wont force the 4 color combinations
I tried searching, but found nothing: does the S3 tier bonus help Bleed builds do competitive dps in +11 keys and so on. Relatedly, what's the key level where one should consider Envenom: the Build?
I only know about bleed build
bleed everywhere
Dunno what an envenom build is
you use vanish at pull and then at 3min afaik(4set)
@fallow canopy 

@haughty flicker @zenith elm @maiden sierra @thorn thorn @spice spire @coral ibex
Dont leave keys without abandoning
Idk
in ST you always have a tea for KB
I just know you get flagged for being a deserter
I'm guessing most ppl are biased toward bleed because it's more forgiving, but I've been playing rogue since before they were one of the FoMs 😛
At that point my cds are up, but vanish still has 30 sec, do I wait for kingsbane or do I not use cds for 30 sec?
got it covered
sure
Envenom: the Build is the poison/cleave build
I think this system is very funny
Pro tip. Don’t ping Whispyr unnecessarily . A tea should always be up on cd because you use one with cds anyway
Lets then ask the guide writers to stop lying to us because the other builds are better
fucking whispyr man
How would that be possible
How does a 2min cd used on pull not be up after 3 minutes
If they are macroing it to kingsbane
How is your vanish stll 30sec CD if you use it at pull it shouldnt be on CD ? or am i understandig wrong, do you have 4set?
Playing a cleave build isn’t “the build you play when you’re good”, it’s just genuinely worse or unnecessary for 99.9% of people right now
can you remind me which one that is?
Damn, my compelling argument foiled again by the existence of a man on a screen 😭
wall boss trinket
Cleave > when ST is VERY needed
macro to vanish
*and there’s massive aoe throughout the rest of the key
I have 4p yes
explain ?
When Deathmark is back up after pull, vanish still has cd
Nether not worth using at 1.5 cd
Nah like I’m probably running cleave in 12+ Streets
Should save stacks for 3m
I mean you can
I’ve thought about it for high keys gambit because of murlocs. But I feel like it loses value outside of the first area
with 4set, you use vanish at pull, then you hold vanish for 3min when you get your CD's back, so you use one set of CD's without vanish
so no trinket on pull, then netherspike on the third deathmark ?
Ye
You could run FB in a 12 and time it just fine I’m sure
Especially streets actually haha
no im talking about bleed build
Yeah same thing. We don’t care about tea usage
ahh
Macro it to shiv, forget
okay
You shouldn't have energy issues in pulls
was looking for sources
Source is me cos I'm smarty-pants
Fair and true


I am so sorry for asking again, so I use Deathmark and Kingsbane for the 2nd time while Vanish is still on cd, then I hold Vanish until the next Deathmark + Kingsbane? Or do I use it on the Kingsbane alone after the 2nd set of big cds? 
are we just opening on dimen in raid ? not the add?
i needed this today
Save it for dm
For second one?
adds should die so fast, even on HC, not worth it imo
What's a typical damage breakdown for you guys? I feel like in 12's I'm running into a wall-- not doing nearly as much dam lol
Thank you ❤️
Loomithar MM, i'm asked to swap on infused tangle
any tips ?
i'm currently on fatebound but it doesn't really works x)
tried sub and outlaw too, sad results
Good evening everyone, I have a quick question. What should I do to avoid running out of energy in Single Target? I play this talent tree -> https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/rogue/assassination/fatebound/DANFVVFBRRUVZiBRCVQMVURQUGYVURoVBUEFVVUBU
assa won't do damage if you do swap

better to swap sub or outlaw then ?
better to bench yourself and get another warlock idk
ty bro 😉
thanks
i told my guild that too :) but then a TRIAL HUNTER decides to speak up every pull i dont do damage :)
the reason we fail them
is cause people keep dying like rems
to nothing
so using my DM and KB on cooldown i am getting unfortunate walls
what is the timing on these for mythic sentinal?
when we use KB
unironically
kb is up everytime they pop
with 4p
Am I doing something wrong, or are the set bonuses a dmg loss? I only got hero/champ set pieces and it's supposedly downgrade even upgraded
it's okay, it seems like it wasn't meant for me (the swap requirement)
4p is 800k up from 4p undermine
on at
st
oh i meant sentinal
casters, aoe specs have to do it
usually you should have both cds up for all the shields
on mythic
Hey Guys, got a question about our opening sequence. We start in steatlh and use rupture and garrote after our ambush. My question is: we got a 6 second Window where we can use that 2 stills on every add in a big pull. Does it make sense to tap every add as possible to spread that 2 Bleeds, or is it more like: just one garrote, one rupture and from now on Spam as much as Possible mutilate and envenom on our priotseget to spread our poison to the enemys ?
well i am using them on CD
you can use your cds then pad
huh okay so continue doing that then?
yes just use cds
you only hold for uh
3rd boss
2nd deathmark for big add pad
when deathstalker
well
its pad
but also were being told to do so
the phaseblades hurt
hella
so u wanna kill them asap with cleave
how to leave my guild without making anyone upset
fake your death
/ vanish
They can’t tell you how upset they are if you block em all
does the fatebound lucky coin stack infinitly?
HMMMMMMMMM
