!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 This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec.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

Explanation of snapshotting

Bleeds update their tick rate dynamically, which means that if you get a haste proc (which increases our tick rate) from somewhere during the encounter (ie. Power Infusion), the bleeds would automatically tick faster, but the second your haste goes back to normal, the tick rate goes back down as well.

Snapshotting refers to getting that haste proc, reapplying bleeds at the faster tick rate, but instead of the bleeds going back to a slower tick rate when your haste drops, they would continue ticking at a faster rate until they expire or are reapplied.

how do you guys handle st in m+ with bleed build outside of cds? keeping all dots up no matter what and then maintaining the rotation but in a way you always stay above 150 energy for sanguine blades?

that's the 20% of the time inferred by the remark about individual dots. The last one was priory, so I got to die 4/6 of the times Lightspawn channeled on me b/c vanish/cloak was on CD perpetually.

What is your healer doing you’re dying every channel lol

#

Is it normal for spatter to barely overtake CT or did i happened to get lucky procs during lingering darkness? It was a smooth 10 floodgate and I ended with 10b damage and 7.5m dps overall.

Hi all , whats the best Weapon enchant for M+ only? Is it still council Guile like in the guide ?

is it largely the tier set bonuses that keeps Bleed builds competitive until +20ish?

normal mist
#

Yes, and the huge funnel you have if you take trash into the bosses

#

Our ST sucks, its a fact, but good groups are tanking trash directly onto the boss

unique lark
#

ah okay, good. Was worried I missed some major talent change. Arterial is pretty great for enraged stuff too. I didn't notice it's awesome utility in that regard, last season.

Not sure if it's related but if you're using the sands of karesh Brann ability in delves it bugs out enemies that you try to attack

do you hear the "whoosh whoosh" of garrot whiffing when they're evading?

I’ve glanced over it leveling. I’ll have to give it a full read though

unique lark
#

yeah, some of the info he gives may hit different

#

I don't recall where I heard/read it, but someone authoritative said the tier bonuses don't change the rotation, but the 4pc bonus actually does change a bit; I'm pretty sure shivving away the last stack of deathstalker's mark for max value from the re-application envenom is the play now.
(...or is the 4pc bonus a red herring and shivving before DSM reapplication is still the play...?)

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

Is ist cast Tempered Potion or use Tempered Potion in Macro for Death Mark?P

Circling back to the contentious macro that I shared, aside from laziness and budget potions that I use outside of raids and key pushing, what's the actual issue with the macro because, like an emotionally mature adult, I gave ppl the benefit of the doubt, checked on a practice dummy and everything fires in the desired order.

Is Shiv supposed to happen before Deathmark now because of the tier bonuses?

spice surge
#

Also it would use your trinket on your shivs

hearty seal
# normal mist fatebound yes

is there a reason why DS shouldn't just shiv before DM with 4p? it's like 22 seconds of shiv, you can fit the entire DM there without any issue

#

question, im watching the 4hour guide from whispyr, say's that there is a few builds to min max, like raid council, cleave, hybrid. realistically too much for me at the moment

#

am i good with having the m+ build for aoe, and the kingsbane build for singletarget

acoustic roost
#

Raid ST and raid Cleave just change one talent (caustic spatter). Then M+ bleed is all you need really

normal mist
#

M+ bleed and ST fatebound// Cleave DS raid

acoustic roost
#

I guess yeah DS cleave would be needed as well

minor coyote
#

and ignoring fatebound completely?

#

and sticking to DS only with those two builds? aoe & single target

normal mist

#

Cleave DS

!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.

There we go

#

That one

royal lantern
#

thats not a big deal

#

if its a fight with many targets, you dont play cringebound, thats all

minor coyote
#

considering i cant even play one since im completely new to wow

#

it is 🙁

shy creek
#

Generally speaking, it is a lot to handle

#

It is not a short endeavor whatsoever

normal mist
shy creek
#

But if you're struggling with it, my best advice for you is to figure out why the rotation works the way it does and move from there

acoustic roost
#

Don’t try and be world first level right away and don’t be discouraged you’re not orange parsing. Just play and get better than you are now

shy creek
#

So hit dummies, stop, read some talents, hit some dummies some more

#

Once you're able to understand how talent interactions work, you'll be able to pick up p much any class p fast

you dont tell somebody that started the game 2 weeks ago "now swap talents 4x in this raid which make small changes on your rotation when you dont even fully know or have the muscle memory for your normal rotation"

thats the dumbest thing possible

People worrying about running while they're still learning to walk probably has a lot to do with scrubs being jerks about dps in easy keys imho

Even with me explaining EVERYTHING TO HIM LIKE HE WAS 5yo, he still manages to have 99% active uptime

#

and parse 5

unique lark
# minor coyote well thats a reason

If you're doing single digit keys, just ignore them because those are learning keys and anyone being an asshole about dps is likely not very good. When I see ppl doing that kind of thing, they're often a faceroll dps spec with nerfs in their future.

acoustic roost
# minor coyote so yeah i don't want to experience that every key

This reinforces the point that io doesn’t mean anything at all. Sure you’re 2300 io, but if your performance isn’t good to the point you’re getting insulted in every other key, you’re not at a 2300 level and should be running lower keys until you can dominate in those

minor coyote

and yeah, allot of toxic people

but what can i do exept improve 😛

Yeah, just if your tank isn't chain pulling and you're sitting at 2 charges sending for burst is good

There are so many things to track. Kinda overwhelming starting out assa

#

2 bleeds. 3 with CT. and then just DM/shiv/KB

#

and combo points + energy bar

#

wind flower
#

is assa the easiest spec out of the 3 rogue specs ? i wanna play a rogue alt in keys

marsh fjord
#

but it's most considered easiest yes

sharp junco
#

Isn't outlaw easier?

marsh fjord
#

outlaw has 100 buttons to press

sharp junco
#

Maybe it's changed since I played it on DF

distant plinth
marsh fjord
#

when i play outlaw

#

my wrist hurt

#

of how fast the spec is

wind flower
#

how about sub ?

willow eagle
#

It's chill

#

Probably easiest spec in keys

distant plinth
wind flower
#

i have 3k on my main now healer, i usually have another alt that i kinda push with id say

#

now im looking to know which one to play

distant plinth
#

Rogue is easy

wind flower
#

i havent played rogue since SL

#

but i dont have issues with playing any class

#

i like sub the most out of all the specs and from what ive looked myself

#

but it seemed a bit complicated

distant plinth
#

Nah, you just need to get a hang of it same as everything

royal lantern
#

subs difficulty is one of the most overhyped things in this game tbh

#

its a wow spec

wind flower
#

true true 😄

#

i play healer this patch nothing can be harder than healing dawnbreaker 💤

distant plinth
#

I rather kill stuff than keeping shit alive in games

#

🤣

wind flower
#

its a habit if you ve been healing ur whole life...

#

cant main anything else unfortunately

#

but i gladly have a dps alt that i pump on, always 😄

#

so is sub prefered in some keys and assa in some other ?

#

depends on dung i guess ?

distant plinth
#

Pretty much rhe same

#

Sub is crazy bursty, outside of cds you do 0, meanwhile assa is more consistent i would say

marsh fjord
royal lantern
#

wrong

always assa

#

fuck sub

marsh fjord
#

well yeah

#

fuck outlaw

#

fuck sub

#

ASSA IS GAME

wind flower
#

tbh i wanna play the spec that requires the least raid trinkets since i only play m+ lol

royal lantern
#

probably outlaw rn?

sharp junco
#

Is it prio to get all garotte and rupture up before using a single mutilate for caustic splash(forgot name) or should you sneak one in

#

Same for CT

wind flower
#

and for race ? whats the most minmaxy race ?

royal lantern
#

if you play bleed build, your highest priority is getting all bleeds up and keep them running

royal lantern
#

probs the ussual, shit elf or dwarf

sick aspen
#

For anyone watching rwf, would sins 90s cds be better for platforms+execute or is sub just that much stronger?

cunning scaffold
#

Depends on how much cleave is needed

generally trustworthy. you can link the sim if you're not sure and we can tell you if something is wrong

does that just mean I'm overcapped on mastery? idk

Fatebound likes crit a lot so that's expected

i have separate gear for FB because of that

Yeah sounds like having a seperate gear for DS and FB makes sense

Guys, I need some opinions, how i have that uptime on rupture and he's not my first/second damage? maybe for my low mastery?

Rupture is ur energy + buff bleed. CT is your damage

thorny seal
#

So, prob struggling on energy?

unreal tide
#

No, just is what rupture is

thorny seal

and what Im missing? cant see

why do you expect rupture to be your top damage

but should i get 2p?

haughty flicker

i mean you should get 2p regardless

but fatebound is still better in st before that, can sim for yourself easily enough

you should get new tier asap

it is such an enormous damage gain

The Buggiest Patch

none of these have been fixed 10/7
Pookie Video with Bonus Crashout
Yet another bug has been found. After the hotfix which removed the double dipping from caustic, caustic spatter damage does not singular focus, removing a fundamental portion of assassination’s funnel. Given we have YET ANOTHER impactful bug, I want to go over the list of important issues as of now. These are not tuning issues directly, they are simply not functioning the way they properly should.

General

  • Sudden Demise’s execute simply doesn’t work in open world/delves because of ilvl world scaling
  • Twist the knife still causes weird envenom timers when the new envenom is shorter than a previous envenom
  • sanguine blades still double dips the spec aura just like caustic did, so it’s actually 36% currently

Deathstalker

  • Fatal Intent is severely undertuned but it also has a chance to fizzle. While it pops at 20%, it stops stacking at 30%, meaning you could just lose it entirely on long fights
  • momentum of despair simply does not work after pressing shiv with the 2pc equipped
  • singular focus does not work with caustic spatter anymore

Fatebound

  • the 4pc tier set is a buggy mess after having been noted as “fixed” in a hotfix note. It has a chance to double proc, not proc at all, and sometimes even proc in the middle of the fight and desync all your cooldowns.
  • Tails coins critting gives combo points through seal fate

Special Honorable Mention Bonus Bugs

  • Deathmark finishing removes a stack of scent of blood because it finishing means the bonus rupture is removed
  • Darkest Night isn't granted from things like araz conduits and the oasis boss in streets (technically intended cause they don't "die" but... really?)
  • Pressing shiv with the 4pc deathstalker set and Darkest night up triggers the energy effect again, presumably because it tries to proc the mark, doesn't see the mark, and then just re-proc darkest night?
  • Swapping from Sub to Fatebound Assa breaks cold blood macros because it's not the same cold blood. Need to relog to fix it
  • Deathstalker's mark still sometimes just.... doesn't apply from darkest night?
  • You cannot break down Deathstalker's Mark while have Darkest Night
  • Momentum of Despair and Follow the Blood tooltips both say "black powder" instead of "crimson tempest"
  • Caustic Spatter specifies Mutilate and Deadly Poison, when Ambush and Amplifying Poison also work. Wound Poison does not work.
  • Arterial Precision can pull things that are out of combat because the range on it is massive and can jump

All together our class is bugged, spec is bugged, both tier sets are bugged, jastor diamond rings are bugged, charged bolts on the delve belt breaks out of stealth. Everything sucks man. I’ll make a video going over all of this as well. It just sucks cause Assa rogue is super fun this patch but the bugs are just so oppressive whispyrheart

Hey all. Forgive my newbness. Trying out the FB build with Shiv and KB for single target. Better to macro Thistle Tea to KB or Shiv? If you are binding it to Shiv (used right before KB) how long before you cast your second Shiv on the opener? TIA

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

marsh fjord
#

And

#

You cast your seconds shiv 8 seconds after your first shiv

you want to cover your entire DM window

#

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.
