Wait Master assassin isn't talented I'd know if I was logged in
then vanish isn't part of your opener unless you play fatebound
We need a wowhead post about these bugs like other discords do 
i have done some bosses lfr etc, and it hasn't happened today for me
Shit you're right Master Assassin isn't talented I've been trolling my opener all raid
I play DS
ds is gross
yeah FB is objectively better on like 5of the fights, and with DS funnel being bugged it's probably better to run on araz for ease of use
Ur gross U got duh buggies!
Im still sad we need to apply the mark via stealth and then i do eco dome and the 2nd boss perma removes my mark every 30s when he goes lizard -> human -> lizard -> human haha 
gameplay 😄
Yeah I can do that but its just really clunky to have to play around this, poor design i think for the mark application
i wish it was just perma fb, i like the cd timing so much better
hello my wonderful experts, i want to sim for m+, what is the best way to do that?
Yes eco dome second boss can get the dick
i mean its definitely better to hold your DN instead of playing with no hero talent for 30s
and then vanishing
I just thematically and lore wise enjoy DS more plus I loathe RNG in my classes even if you can technically cancel it out with other passives to guarantee your 'coin-flip' it's why I fucking HATE outlaw
but its the same for forgeweaver, when the damn turrets just removes your mark completely
senor reyes (araz) is a sub boss im afraid
i feel that, but i also like doing 15% more single target damage in raid
Yeah....
My point was that to apply the mark to the lizard when both of them are up, not the human
This season has a lot of awkward interactions that prior seasons did not.
the "lol target didn't actually die get fucked" thing has been a problem since day 1 of TWW
I'm stuck in my ways and no one can change me 
anyone?
Dungeonslice with no raid buffs except bloodlust
Hey brothers! a question, my head is exploding with two activatable trinkets... one that increases stats every 2 minutes and the other Unyielding, I try and try but I can't use the second one correctly, how do you do it? I try to use it with Vanish with Fate... and it always ends up activating the first one with DM and I have to activate it manually... and it's giving me shoot me....
the best way to avoid that is to not play double on use
Double use trinket is ucky
but if you're giga unlucky on trinket drops, i guess you could macro one to DM and one to vanish
so they alternate
you play both trinkets as if they were 3 minute trinkets. First one on pull, netherprism on 1.5mins, first one on 3 mins, netherprism on 4.5 mins, first one on 6 mins, netherprism on 7.5 mins
etc
The healthiest thing is to have a second passive like the Antenna which I don't have yet :c
Unyielding is a 20 cd trinket :c
20 segs
Whats that one passive in Delves? Fragment I think thats a pretty okay passive trinket if you wanna grind out a hero trinket
no, its a variable cd up to 3 mins
you can keep stacking it higher
(and should)
yeah that'
18*10 = 180 sec = up to 3 minutes trinket
s the one you macro to vanish and press once per 3 min
just slap the other on DM until you can replace it
yes i think macroing your 2 mins trinket on DM, and macroing netherprism to vanish should work
brother are you trolling?
you don't have to press it every 20s
in fact that's a dps loss
!up
use it with your cooldowns
Macro the 2m trinket to deathmark, macro the netherprism with vanish (for raid)
I think trinket ICD should prevent netherprism from being used
king vanish envenom
10
3/6
Just got the soul hunter reshi wrap boots on Hero track, is that big? Better than any other boots until maxed myth track boots or only better thing would be myth track reshi boots?
I just tested this on a dummy, it works
so just do this for fatebound raid bosses@old obsidian
you dont want the same macro for m+ or playing deathstalker though
Soul hunter boots are turbo BiS
!gear
ughm, im kinda confused on how to get the free upgrades (valor stones only)
sometimes i can upgrade for free, sometimes it requires crests
upgrade stuff, get new gear at a lower level, free upgrades.
If you have a pair of 704 boots, you can upgrade any boots to 704 without it costing crests
but upgrading them to that level does work?
for rings, weapons and trinkets you need both slots covered to get the upgrade
^Same applies to rings and trinkets but you need 2 of those I believe
It doesnt matter how you aquire the gear no
aha, got it
mega thx
so i can upgrade to the highest item level i achieved of that gear piece
Thanks guys
for valor stones only
Yes
ahaaa... got it
Is this the only crit/mast ring in the game or what
thank you 🫡
i try to mega mix max 3 min but i cant
This thing sims so high for me
it is the only crit mastery ring this season
Yo, sorry if these type of questions pop up too often, but i just started playing my rogue and in my first vault i get to choose between pacemaker or tier chest (both hero track), as a fresh 80 with 2 ethereal voidsplinters which do you reckon is better getting?
Hello, sorry if this has been asked before. Is prism bis even in m+?
tier chest
Do we use shiv immediately after kingsbane on fatebound (to hit the cold blood envenoms), or for the last 8 seconds (to minmax kb ticks)?
Is prism and cursed stone idol playable?
Probably tier chest here, it’s different if it’s mythic and decision harder but here it’s pretty easy
im p sure its last 8 seconds unless its dm where u send it all duration
You can farm hero pace
Yea
and when it's DM, you shiv before the DM to boost the edge case flips
then the back half after that
alright, thanks a bunch, really appreciate it
Glhf gamer
About to shiv your back half to edge you, ya feel me
Sorry the voices won

whoops
I was simming my vault and it told me to replace waist, is that normal to do so, or did I mess something up perhaps? I thought the belt would be held on for some time. Just did a standart top gear sim
You probably have lightning rod or something selected in the belt
Instead of a good power
hello hello, i have a question... Cant find an answer about it. Trying fatebound atm and wondering why we have to use vanish before KB CB, why vanish ? It does/gives nothing Oo
double jeopardy hero talent
you probably should try to sim again with the belt on Electric Current or Critical Chain. Also upgrade your cloak
Double jeopardy to guarantee 7
yeah I have that one. didnt realise it made such a big deal, just saw most ppl had that equipped when I last looked at it
just got on 🙂
Damn... Thx a lot for this answer ! Finally 🤣
you can click on the plus in the sim and have it changed that way
Vanish Fatebound questions make me insane
makes you wanna just, vanish?
Is my parse on plexus GGs if I see the 3rd int?
wait what
u can change
i have lighting rod
💀
this was my quick sim, https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/32n2fby6WiQn8dnSnH95Sb
and this was my log on loomithar https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/vjghc7GdVxTfAZKY?fight=10&type=damage-done&source=23
Did I make some glaring mistakes, I feel like i'm still trying to wrap my head around fatebound. I think I can do the opener without having to think about it, but i know i'm probably wasting combo points.
do you rupture the other 2 dhs in council fight out of your cds and keep it up, or do you just tunnel one of them and splatter
If you’re running bleed you want rupture on all 3
hey guys is this the best M+ build for rogue this season?
sorry new to season 3 and just got my 1st vault drop which is a trinket.
so excited to start blasting
!loot
Holy mother of wasted combopoints
Finish on 5+ dog
the raid BoE trash ring can roll crit/mast
You don’t have to go to 7
yes you just play bleed build everywhere :p
have fun
I will not
Run a delve and insert disc into belt
Right click belt
thanks! i love how blindside is actually so good on Single Target.
Change power
I know I should, but I think that's my hardest thing to just do haha, i need something to just be like, FINISHER!!
what disc 😮
Present them ho
Is mythic track cursed stone idol worth taking for m+?
5+ only in fatebound brain no thinky
dms 😼
You get it from running delves
jk
Go to skittering breech and run it
You get a disc at the end
Right click to consume
ur not gettin my nuts
Then right click belt and select critical chain
Yeah but ur pops is getting mine
Fuck


until now i just used the normal st build ds with splatter on council
is a different build recommended now?
Lot of people have been running m+ talents and it’s been fine.
CT also pretty good there so like there’s a guild that just picks up CT
Lowkey kind of a for fun fight
Fatebound for ST fights
yeah ty but i just meant council
ah
@spice spire ty, good idea
cleave is fine for council, but if you're confident that you can get solid CT uptime it's an option too
ye what anti-zac said
I’m not anti Zac what the helly
idk if zac is making anything quake
boy that was a slowpoke reply on my part
thats what most are running on council
That's exactly what anti zac would say
Yeah but I know I’m making his pops quake ya feel me

Massivly struggling with ST in M+ Bleed build, are we still noticably behind others atm with this build in ST, cant say im playing rotation significantly wrong if at all
!oh
biS lists are not helpful towards gearing yourself. In order for BiS items to truly be BiS, all items in the list have to be obtained at that level exactly, or else it doesn't make sense. Missing a socket for example would shift your stats slightly. On top of this, all stats being good on Assassination means there are currently over 500 "BiS" combinations that are within margin of error. You should always compare your gear through top gear or droptimizer instead.
Pre-raid or Pre-season BiS from world content is especially not helpful, and we do not maintain any lists of these types. These are absolute meaningless bait for gear that you will be replacing the moment the season comes out. Use Top Gear/Droptimizer to compare against your character.
just normal if you have no adds present/pulled into
without any kind of log or more info who can say
Fwiw the delve belt was tied with 714 belts for me and was replaced as soon it went past that
With proper effects on
so now that gamescon is over and people have put together the information that wasn't streamed and we know that major class reworks are coming to make things "approachable" , what do yall think theyll change for Sin ? Has any one seen any leaks from alpha ?
do you think if i fix that problem (might be my deathstalker mindset trying to get to full cp for deathstalkers mark application, which of course doesn't exist on fatebound, but i've been playing deathstalker ONLY since the expansion began) that i'll be closer to my sim
Theres so much thats going to change between now and the beta its almost not even worth discussing
Yeah you wasted like 60+ cp not including seal/seal fate
That’s a lot of envenoms missed
it's embarrassing haha
if a sim is telling me that the weave beats prism in st, do i just take that as it is or is there nuance with prism such as assuming no stacks
in the sim
There's always nuance in sims but it shows that on average that trinket will outperform the other
if you struggle with using hte prism trinket properly it might not be your bis
im fine with it, it's jsut the sim is telling me weave is better
so im wondering if i should use that
instead
Prism takes time to ramp up too. 3m I believe
So if your sim duration is too short it might be misleading
st just kinda sucks
its 5 min
Are they the same ilvl?
make sure youre maintaining crimson tempest
envenom is a terrible button that doesnt do anything so if youre dropping ct to press envenom for any reason other than darkest night dont do that
!bugs
thats about it tho
if you're not going to trust your sim then its a pointless discussion
Oh m+ build
you kinda just keep bleeds up and afk and do bad damage because the build does bad st
and then you move on
we think blizz going to do anything about the bugs or wut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sy3vDx7jKD0
Everyone just switch to outlaw, right?

is antenna from lomithar still good?
its still bis
3% can't dethrone the goat
is it worth to take it from the vault over 4 set?
i would take 4 piece first
unless you think youre gonna get it in loot council
also remember, xmog lasts forever
take the 4 piece now then

I'd take antenna, you can get tier from anywhere, you run a few m+ get a piece catalyze and boom
(On the long run)
Finally a true rogue player
Myth tier play it is, I'd take the idol but channelling sounds lame
Dos anyone has a WA that can track prism?
I ain't about that life, probs just gonna grab myth track gloves and forget about it
I just payed someone 400k for a LFR atenna trinket 💀
thanks!
A fool and his money are soon parted
Okay sweet, the stone idol is simming as a loss, NO GUILT FOR IGNORING IT
!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
why are you simming the bleed build for ST?
does anyone have the tricks macro that does not require focus?
?
U mean the one with the w.a?
it requires wa??
!tricks
Smart tricks WA on tank, this require the following macro:
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 1
/click SmartMisdirect LeftButton 0
Yes. Smart redirect one
"Swapping from Sub to Fatebound Assa breaks cold blood macros because it's not the same cold blood. Need to relog to fix it"
Does this bug happen every time or is it just a chance to happen when swapping from sub to FB Assa? i swapped a bunch between the two last night but didnt notice if the macro was broken or not
Even works with brann now
I hate brann tho so
It bug from assa to sub
Also
Did a whole reclear with 0 cb on my sub
just get the weakaura 
oh so if we macro'd sub's secret technique with CB thats what breaks? I dont use that macro so might be why i didnt notice anything
i imported the wa and the macro. Do i need anything else?
but the assa CB + kingsbane macro should be fine then? or does it go both ways with any cb macro
Well. In sub channel it says from assa to sub. What u repost say sub to assa.
I was relogging when going from sub to assa. So not sure if its both way sinnce i saw this post about sub to assa
But it did bug when going assa to sub without relogging
okay i guess ill just keep an eye on it next raid
Check the linked page from the bot
channeling is lame but you can actually move while its casting
Why do we vanish after CB on fate
still annoying but not as bad
fatebound hero talents read them
Double Jeopardy
not at a computer dick
Thank you
You are typing on discord- you are either on a computer or a mobile phone with access to the talent tree. I don't know what the talent is called but there is one in there that says "the first coin flips out of stealth... blah blah"
It's also in the pins of this discord channel
lmao what?
Hey, read through the wowhead guide just looking for confirmation I’m not missing something, for M+ DS Bleed build, tier set does not change how we play at all right?
Yo act like you are the answering guru wtf is wrong with you
it's really not insane to expect you to read your talents or pins or anything at all
I didn’t realize I can’t ask question here
bro you asked a question that 10000 people ask everyday, imagine if all these people stopped doing that
🤷🏽♂️
You can, I answered. "Why do we vanish in fatebound?" - hey the answer is in your hero talent tree is an answer
how better the life of the people that have to answer this question
then make a section for questions don’t get mad
there are pins
oh wait none of you are mods
that have links to guides
yeah but that doesn't make the other guy dick
it makes you
you can search the word
and you will see that literally every 20 min this question is asked
Holmes why are you always starting fights in here bro seen you be in an arguement 4 times this week 💀💀
sure but you don't get to call people dicks or call them insane when people point you to the resources that have the answer
Well it’s not in the pics
Rawr
Pins
I just checked there’s nothing about using vanish in the pins.
idk what you want me todo
thanks for being helpful! Yay
You wanna know why we vanish?
The only thing it says is hold vanish for the damage amp
Or what is the question
that doesn’t explain why we use it in the opener and I can’t find it on the guide. But people came at me like I committed a crime. So nvm.
we don't play master assassin in FB atm
but you can search the talents and see which ones are associated to stealth
Being told to read your talents is hardly an accusation of crime
all good at least you didnt ask if we are still bugged 
a guy named whispyr made a 3hour video so you dont come here asking
so why have a class discord then if no one is willing to answer questions…
Would rather just get mad and tell them to look at the talents
We should delete it like paladin
someone get this guy therapy, someone told him to read his talents!!! he will never be the same
DUDE SEARCH VANISH
I just can’t read them at the moment because I’m at work and I can’t get wow head to work
Get back to work
can you imagine if someone told him to read his abilities?
you will find the answer 100000 times
On break
No breaks
no need to be dicks to the guy ngl
Okay. You asked a question. We told you to read the hero talents of fatebound. There is literally 1 out of those 10 that has remotely anything to do with stealth. Surely you would see why we vanish during the CD window.
^ Your response to this was to call this discord insane and all dicks lmao. No one has a problem with you asking. But if you rage when we don't explicitly answer and send you to the answer instead, that's where you'll get some resistance.
mb
Why do we vanish at work?
To poop
There is when he's crashing out for being told to just read his talents
Or you can just tell me because I can’t read the talents right now
Wait. We have talents?
I don’t have any talent
Toe be fair he called you insane.
not the whole discord
I am insane
My mom said I was special. Is that my talent?
I just hate that every time I come to my class discord people have a problem with questions being asked
and I can’t find it and I’m sorry I’m not at my computer and I can’t load wowhead at the moment
This a source material database, use it
Also yes, people should read their talents and skills. But because someone asks a question does not mean that you need to start a crusade against them for not reading talents. It happens, this is a discord. Get over yourselves, it's not a big deal.
I feel like if answering a basic question is gonna annoy you just don't, other people will answer eventually
and yes
Learn to ask better questions
i think people mostly have an problem with that guy for calling people names when they suggest reading pins/talents/etc
And learn to educate yourself better
OK, but people automatically attacked me so what do you want me to do?
Rawr scratch
Not respond
fair
Not crash out when being told to read talents
People have a problem with stupid questions, not questions in general
You always have the option to not respond
idk i am feeling like a psycho that i use the search function and find most of the answers
Sorry for breaking up this meaningful discussion but question if you don't mind 🙂 Loved my rogue in past expansions, assasination is still by far my favorite rogue spec. Do not have 4pc yet but hope to get it this week. When i was just doing some LFR, i CONSTANTLY felt energy starved. Is that just common between thistle tea uses and pooling for cooldowns? Is there a way to stop thistle tea from auto proccing at 30 energy?
!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.
ty
Unluggy
oh look someone didn’t automatically attack him lol. Good job.
Yeah he asked it better
i think everything started with you calling someone a dick for saying to look at your talents. Had you not reacted in such a way, this conversation probably would have never happened
ok I got wowhead to work
it takes 2 to tango as they say
People that do this aren't asking the questions and thus you don't see them. The fact that you feel like a psycho for doing this (presumably because you're implying you are the only one that does this based on this conversation) is sampling bias.
how can I read this
We're generally rather helpful here
the real question is, "did he go look at his talents?"
Assassination Guides:
Wowhead: https://www.wowhead.com/assassination-rogue-guide
IV: https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/assassination-rogue-pve-dps-guide
Method: https://www.method.gg/guides/assassination-rogue
correct
but instead of telling this guy to do it we tell him ah it's ok, while it is not
Yes because fatebound 4pc will make your DM/KB burst windows happen now every 1.5 minutes and with vanish on a 2 minute timer its now de-synced. So you'll hold vanish for an extra minute for the burst window.
Ok so vanish in the beginning and again at 3 minutes.
need help settling an arguement, do groups running with an assa allow combat to drop for restealths? or are we supposed to just use vanish wisely. noticing a big difference in overall when im allowed to get restealths.
Ok even if your CDs are off?
!chainpull
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.
I meant off cooldown you just wait for vanish?
no, you vanish with deathmark
it should line up naturally
Use vanish offensively and as required
ok
since you become a 90sec spec
people go crazy bc not only can you find the answer via discord search "fatebound vanish" you can also find it in the guide which is linked in the pins

pins? what are those
Your overall will be lower but the key will be done quicker
tbh not a lot of people are discord savvy for that kinda thing
Do we oly chase the antenna balls if they are in melee range
Otherwise let them come?
Yeah I am not lol I’ll learn
Discord on mobile sucks
true
Except it is. This is a class discord. People ask questions that are already answered all the time, it came free with your internet. Sometimes it's easier to ask than to search for the information. This puts a burden on the people in the channel to answer something someone already put work into. But if that annoys you, guess what, you can just ignore the question. You don't have to answer. Nobody is forcing you to type the same answer. Someone responded "Double Jeopardy" to the question that was asked within 60 seconds, which answers the question, and that was that, the conversation should have ended there. The rest of this was just ego nonsense.
if you narrow it to vanish, you get this
i kind of disagree coz double jeopardy is not an answer
double jeopardy is the answer
if i haven't tried i will ask ok what is double jeopardy
the text of the talent explains why you vanish
or is it ok then to tell him go read your talents?
Double jeopardy is a legal principle that protects individuals from being prosecuted twice for the same offense after they have been convicted or acquitted.
they can use second stage thinking to look it up themselves
otherwise you are obliged then to explain each talent one by one and while you can do it, people should understand that they should not ask for this
after being told the answer
I mean the guy asking said he couldn't see the talent tree and had no access to a computer- so you have to assume the guy asking just knows all the hero talents and their names off the top of his head? lmao
The name of the talent is imo not an answer
Chest Set Piece is kinda meh right?
It's something for him to look up later.
you can't be on discord without a computer
if you want to answer do it as a command would with 10 lines of text
You're over assuming your responsibility.
Still curious :D
if you can be on discord you can be on wowhead barring regional restrictions
But so it "go check the fatebound hero talents" - it's something to look up. I didn't know the name of the talent. I just know its one of those talents lol
And that's fine.
Looking at wowhead on a phone is quite a hassle
Look man. I’ll improve and I’ll read then when I get home. I appreciate your assistance.
^This is also true (Wowhead on phone)
it is, and discord also sucks dicks on mobile
Nah discord is fine on mobile if all you want to do is chat and look at pins
i can also argue that if you can't read talents on wowhead you dont really need an immediate answer and can wait to look it up later
Yeah wowhead isn’t mobile friendly.
its not like you are on your pc needing to know immediately bc you are playing the game
Just know even if it seems like it, none of this was really personal. You are not the first or the last person to come here asking a question that's been asked 50000 times before
why does the assassination bis gear list use deathstalker
i have the talent screenshotted
on wowhead
At the end of the day it’s just a question. But I’ll improve. Thank you.
Yeah but I’m at work trying to figure out why I 50 parsed last night!
@maiden sierra starting to add sound alerts now lmao
sorry for being rude
People just get frustrated at seeing questions that can be solved by reading guides that have a lot of effort put into them
Tbh people in here can be grumpy, dw about it
You weren’t the first, last, or worst. You’re fine
!weakauras
Yes, and it's also important for people here to recognize that this is the role of channels like this. Someone asking these questions is not forcing the channel through some tribulation. It's ok for people to ask short questions even if they're answered by talent details. Someone may be happy to answer
And if nobody is happy to answer, just don't, it's fine

Why do you care about a BIS list is a much better question
!bis
BiS lists are not helpful towards gearing yourself. In order for BiS items to truly be BiS, all items in the list have to be obtained at that level exactly, or else it doesn't make sense. Missing a socket for example would shift your stats slightly. On top of this, all stats being good on Assassination means there are currently over 500 "BiS" combinations that are within margin of error. You should always compare your gear through top gear or droptimizer instead.
Pre-raid or Pre-season BiS from world content is especially not helpful, and we do not maintain any lists of these types. These are absolute meaningless bait for gear that you will be replacing the moment the season comes out. Use Top Gear/Droptimizer to compare against your character.
(i.e. don't worry about it)
there are hundreds of valid gear combinations that sim within margin of error at max ilvl
wowhead has bis lists because people google "wow tww season 3 assassination rogue bis gear"
and wowhead wants to be the #1 search result
Whispyr_secondary_stats.jpg
I’m looking
guys is Assa still good ? people are saying its bugged
assa is bugged
don't gaslight me
I’m tryna girlboss you so hard queen

The term is actually gaslamp. Gaslights didn't exist back then
Tell her
lamp deez
Atleast they fixed the tooltip from BP to CT. 
Did they actually?
Yup
god bless, yoink
how is it even bugged ?
check pins

Hey guys do we have like a pin or something that explains when the bugs will be fixed
Sometime between now and the end of time
sadly no such pin exists 
Hope this helps
It does! Thank you
I'll get right on that phoning up John Blizzard and asking for the patch date.
I always call Henry Blizzard.
Is that why they stopped answering my letters? Fuck
i think 4p bug is fixed
Telegraphs work really well
No need, thats my dad, he said the patch is never coming out and you should reroll ret pally
Thanks for following up for us, one less task for me.
It's ok I already rerolled resto shaman
AND HAVOC
I thought this disc was for amusement not information 
It isn’t
I don't like talking about my Havoc because of the stinky reputation they apparently have cultivated
you are still welcome and appreciated here despite being a stinking warglaive thief
pin

Hey the first warglaives I got were on my rogue
using shiv when darkest night is up is a no no right?
oops im one of those guys now
just a question, why use mana oils instead of whetstone? better stats for the bleeds? (m+ mostly)
The two give different sets of stats, the math makes number bigger for one than the other
. You can sim each and see
age old answer: sim
my bad and ty
I don't have a more logical answer than number 1 bigger than number 2
ye, fair point
ok just saying because i have tried like 10 times and never desynced
Trying it now. So far we are 1/1 for not bugged.
if you have a cd aura for it conditions when charges = 0, charges = 1 play sound.
Conditions evaluate only when the overall state changes. So it won't repeatedly play while on cooldown, only once it enters that state from being not in that state.
Or Combat log trigger on spell cast success, but that involves adding an extra trigger if you already have one for cooldown
yeah i realized that when i added the sound
Nah its still bugged.
you're a liar
it depends
Second time I tried it on the dummies it desynced.
but u asked for it
pedro don't stop
also
how do you click into a channel and go straight to where someone @'d you

I had to scroll
it has a cooldown condition
should rupture be topping my breakdown on ST? or is it showing that way on sims because of it counting other things along ?
I said conditions, not actions. Actions show/hide are when the overall aura appears/hides, if it's already on screen as a cd tracker action won't play
yeah
it has one
but can i add a condition here then
that would play the sound
on use
Yeah
go to mentions in the top right
I shall go post my atonement pedro
That uh, seems like a fairly overloaded aura for just shadowstep, why is there custom code going on here 🤨
no idea, its a private weakaura that has been tinkered with
should rupture be topping my breakdown on ST? or is it showing that way on sims because of it counting other things along ?
and then i got it
i never seen that
I scrolled from 11pm to 6am
You're now caught up on the channel lore though
through hundreds of bug questions and a full whispyr crashout
So like
Any of yall tried sin vs sub on forge yet? Logs definitely leaning to sub
and all of the vaults
wait
How to get good on raid without doing it?
i know mechanic but i want to know how to parse
do more damage
if i hover over the spell it shows the true cd right ? so if it says 1.5 it is 1.5 ?
i mean, parse and "good in raid" is allready 2 different things lol
do the rotation until you are falling asleep doing it or sth
just highroll all your procs and get good killtimers + aoe padding
Yo guys, rotation wise, how do we handle giga big pulls? Like first pull in eco. Do we garrote everything, or just garrote rupture rupture garrote into caustic envenom cds spam?
buuuut your personal performance impacts the team performance, with that mindset just go buy runs from boosters discord tbh
thats a kinda weird stretch, ngl
true mb
ok
You want Charge Numbers or On CD. It's a bit tricky because step has 2 charges. But this is where you'd do it, yes.
i think ive figured it out
And the only reason I'm saying those is to save you an extra trigger on combat log tracking
the point is
IDK WHEN TO CD
If you want a foolproof way, that's the way to do it
like should i throw them on cooldown no matter what?
this also worked
aww man I missed the full crashout
just means an extra trigger on combat log which is not ideal
take this one for example xd, his ilvl parse will be 6, but he got 10 bcs other's personal performance is better
you can check lorrgs.io and see what the big dawgs are doing
Add Trigger, type Combat Log, Spell Cast Success -> Shadowstep
just be mindful that timers may vary as people get more gear and stuff
wtf is this site
it was justified lmao
Got it
wasn't really even a crashout
oh yeah
are the bugs fixed yet?
It's not in the trigger, it's that you add an extra trigger, then make a condition based off of that new trigger you added
But, what you did with Since Charge Lost works too
did LFR half hour ago and it kept desyncing
If you want to play for raid (fatebound ) and m+ in high content , what do you believe would be the most ideal compromise to max in term of enchant / gems / opti , mastery or crit ? a little bit of both ?
I would recommend keeping your approach as you did here instead of combat log
when do we pop tempered in m+?
hmmm
hehe yes but just anytime in the rotation? 😄
could somebody look at my mythic plus log to see if you can stop some fixable issues right off the bat?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/PBkKVWMX67dnL39b?fight=last&source=4&type=damage-done
With Dm
bigger pack bigger impact
thanks!
I would just make Since Charge Lost >= 0.1 (so that the condition has a moment to evaluate to false, so it can re-trigger)
Lets fucking go
If you were to do a combat log trigger, you would mark the combat log trigger as having a duration (at the bottom of the trigger) of 0.5 seconds, then in conditions, simply do if active
any chance they fixed assasinations bugs?
pin
should rupture be topping my breakdown on ST? or is it showing that way on sims because of it counting other things along ?
so no?
sorry i havent been for long in rogues discord, i dont understand how things work here
works like all discord servers
i seen the bugs explained, i dont see any note for fixing them
Give a man the answer to the question, they're sated for a minute. Teach a man to read the pins... they'll probably ask anyhow fuck it we ball.
ive been to warriors, no, the work different
their server has the pin feature disabled?
isen't.... that..... quite..... obvious....................?
the legit first pin the the list directly says they aren't fixed
But yeah, pins. Good resource. When there's a fix, pins will be updated.
Read the pins. Good place to look.
no , theres no info pinned
???????????????????
perception check failed
(This isn't meant as a thing against you, you're just the like, fiftieth person to ask this?)
bait used to be believable

he's almost def ESL chill
So you're taking the brunt for the 49 before you
yep... 0 pins. it has a different channel all together for news, info etc

reee
send him to the Maw
If you want to play for raid (fatebound ) and m+ in high content , what do you believe would be the most ideal compromise to max in term of enchant / gems / opti , mastery or crit ? a little bit of both ?
Well we have pins here (as do they but that's a different story). Look at them to see the updates on the bugs
(They aren't fixed)
Do we ever replace Jastor Diamond? The Mastery Stat is still sick in S3!
Pins: #assassination message
You just need to program Moroes to randomly say 'Pins' sometimes and I think we're covered.
yeah i meant that they have a different channel only for news, no need to go to the pins but yeah, immature king of comedy gaming community.. always a pleasure to meet you

Not sure if you guys want to add to it but heres an active thread on the bugs list https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/assassination-rogue-bugs/2156973/12
Are there no mythic BoE's this season?
Great to meet you too, hope you find the information we've shared helpful.
If you want to play for raid (fatebound ) and m+ in high content , what do you believe would be the most ideal compromise to max in term of enchant / gems / opti , mastery or crit ? a little bit of both ?
Are you wanting to m+ in FB?
Sorry if already mentioned, what is the current total dps loss for sin with these bugs?
Is that what your asking?
no i am asking fatebound want crit , deathstalker m+ go for mastery, what is best compromise
if want both
I think they're asking that they want to raid as fatebound, and also do high M+ as deathstalker, and don't want to swap enchants around every time they go between content for optimal stats, so what do people run as a middle ground between those two modes without losing too much to either.
(I don't have an answer)
It largely doesnt matter from what Whispyr has said. They are all relatively close to each other.
the answer is obviously versatility
!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
!mastery
I think there was a "stats don't matter and I hate you all" section of Whispyr's big assassination video that basically said that
how much mastery do we aim at?
I have 13k atm 🙁
until sims tell you not to
We dont aim for any of it. Just try to get gear with Master and Crit
You typed a command and it gave you an answer saying to literally not ask the question you then proceeded to ask
you literally just pinged the command??????
🙂
okay gn
gn tony
well im stupid, what can i say
all good me too
You sim the potential upgrade, number goes up put it on, number goes down don't put it in
just go mastery so you can swap sub if you feel like it
yeah nice call
nobody should ever do that
who isn't tbh
fuck sub
people are so weirdly tribalistic even on spec choice lol
if you played sub in burning crusade youd understand
I've played rogue since 2004
then you should understand how they've butchered that spec
its a tragedy
same with combat
can't stop living in the past the future is now old rogue move on
smh
what? rogue in tbc was just a hemo bot with glaves, played more like a fury warrior
was not good class fantasy
harp maces was amazing
get off my lawn!
I LOVE BUGS they are the best haha o well is what it is atm
would anyone be able to tell me, why im the other rogue (mightlinger) is doing 1 mil more st then me? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/gzBZr1NKkdpHv3a8?fight=12&type=damage-done
even on the opener he is just bursting waay more then me, with like a mil dps
do we treat prism as 2 min trinket with bleed build?
well he is 4 ilvl higher than you, has a lily so he has a trinket on opener and he has the 3% damage buff while you dont
shit, didnt know there was a 3% dmg buff. i have lily as well, should I use that one instead?
well prism is gonna be better most of the time but if we talking about something like opener burst then ofc lily smashes it
prism pulls ahead the longer the fight is essentially
he has better trinkets, he got more casts of envenom and mutilate off and he has better stats for fatebound
you also missed a cold blood cast and while small you are spending some energy on feint while he is not
Hey guys, sorry for the stupid question. Im gearing my rogue currently an try to get the disc effect thingies, it says i just have to do Delve x but after 7 times it still didnt drop, are they not available anymore?
It’s an item in your bags you have to use
Youre actually the goat, ty 
It’s a really dumb design that confuses a lot of people
also uses mana oil
Random question, does last wing of RF gives rep??
Not if you're already capped for the week
also has boots
Is there still an issue with jastor diamond? Sims higher but im not sure if it's the play due to bugs
Got this Myth Wrists in vault, but have crafted one with embelishment, should i recraft something like boots to embelishment and use the myth wrists when i upgrade them past 720ilvl?
Boots from raid probably better because they make wraps better
sim them and find out
but also boots not good
coz the soul hunters one
maybe a neck or ring could work
but also do you have a spark ?
not yet
from what i heard yes not working right
Check the pins my friend. I believe it is listed there
But yeah its bugged
pfft back to old friend sub ig
in dungeons it works ok
found the outlaw player

hmm 300m in halls feel like low no
rip my top 100 soul hunters parse fell to 126
ull loose a spark?
i would recraft when i got the third spark, this is futureproofing the item, since its a myth
or no?
what key
i dont think the 723 without embelisshment is better than 720
Fortunately you don’t have to think about it and you can just sim
SD is just damage reclamation via execute, if you want it to be higher you have to play around it
and that is dubious at best
refresh your bleeds
shiv when mobs are close to dying
you'll get larger demise procs
i dont usually get more than 3-5% of my overall as SD procs tho
but still the sim will not give the info needed, like in a macroscopic point of view.
It definitely gives the info needed for your question
the question tho is not if the wrists 723 is better than 720 in absolution
it is how to proceed with such vault
Zoom in on the sim page before simming
My Current Top Gear Sims for Fatebound suggest almost entirely no vers (700 total) is this normal/expected?
because if we want the biggest dps increase just craft chest but obviously this is sus at best
Stats do t matter
Don’t
I have many options to swap around, same itemlevel and it sims 0,2% dps better
Well there question is kind of just approaching the “how should I play the game” kind of area
Their*
belts get replaced aroind 710ish?
yeah i noticed it too ty tho these are the things that i dont do anymore so thats fair
i agree that's why the answer is not a clear just sim (obviously simming will give some guidance but it is a multi-dimensional problem)
I mean they could sim all of the branching gearing decisions and compare relative power levels week over week 
But the answer is normally just take the best piece in the vault for your characters power rn
Unless it’s a rare trinket or special item or something
You can always recraft later in the tier when you have extra sparks and you’re just trying to max things out
And you eventually be taking sockets from vault anyways
And sockets are basically uses less
Useless
are we spamming shiv and wait them back when DM is about 1min back ?
bliz ever gonna fix assa?
No
ever? probably, between now and the end of the game something is bound to happen
Any chance someone can look over logs with me?
Doesn’t have to be now but would like some input.
coward
The question is more like I thought Haste is our worst stat but the sims suggest its actually vers, and the answer is definitely not "stats dont matter"
they don't because at the moment maybe vers is but the moment you take the wrists haste may be worse than vers
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/9zeHsh7bF14YawLFr2HTUj
Hello, is not listening to the SIM still relevant regarding the Jastor?
Jastor is just bugged randomly sometimes not proccing ever
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Vanish in the Deathstalker Bleed Build doesn't do anything extra like reset cd's or anything right? Why in the WoWhead BiS page does it say we can Macro Unyielding Netherprism with Vanish?
!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
@slate crown it does seem like its triggering
without me using step now tho
we are 3 rogues in my raid rn
maybe they affect it?
with 4 piece in m+, we dont shiv unless deathmark is on the target?
I thought I saw somewhere that we're shiving each Crimson Tempest
i shiv, i shiv so hard
shiv ya mum
you don't play fatebound in m+ so
hey
jinxed
ahhh, OK I see
would it be worth to use gear with more mastery for m+
is assa much better on st then sub?
thank you
not necessarily
all stats are just vers in a trenchcoat
It seems mast is better for Deathstalker in M+, while Crit is better in Raid with FB
yeah that's what i was thinking. i just have some extra rings and necks with more mastery
10% more mastery but 15% less crit
good thing there's a handy tool to compare how those different gear sets would perform in a dungeon setting

giving up???
outlaw fun but no weaps yet
outlaw fun but no tuning yet
outlaw is ass without the assination part
seriously debating using my spark on neck, all my jewels are haste heavy somehow
or is not going for 2nd embelish giga trolling
mommas medallion is cool
and the king neck

finally fixed my frac hc log :)
idk what wrong i did last wednesday

anyone have a plater mod they can share for deathmark target? ive tried creating it but failed loads xD

Alright yeah just go nuclear and do combat log, dunno
no the combat log is triggering it
i think
imma do what i did
and just use condition
/wa
ops
Yes, you need to specify the source unit as player
i did
with netherprism, if you have 0 stacks at start of the boss fight, do you wait with using it for 2nd rotation of dm + kb in raid?
ill try to fix it tmr or something
cba trying while trashpulling raid
seems kinda obvious doesnt it
no we send at first and then 3rd
every 1.5 min with FB
Apparently 4pc is a huge boon
if u only have 1 on use sure
u should be ripping netherprism with ur second vanish dm
Anyway for me not to use my tea everytime i use Envenom?
What are we opening with as Fatebound? Garrote? The guide is referencing Improved Garrote as the driving force behind using Garrote after Vanish.
Unless I'm misreading
or thats how it goes and i have to mange it better?
@midnight mist is outlaw bad?
You don’t have to manage or think about auto tea
!gear
Can someone explain the bug with the 4 set FB and the cooldowns getting de synced
Ok that's just a thing and not me wasting
I think it's worse than s1 in m+ and the worse outlaw ever was in raid since I started the game probably
But it's a mix of bad tuning + terrible encounter design
For outlaw
So it doesn't count
Or does it
+5% bladeflurry fix it?
thoughts on my opener rotation?

I already have so much aura tho
people dont know but outlaw st in keys is the same as assa
outlaw been ass pass few xpac i did switch to during last season of shadowland the sin T set was just a pain for me at least
except outlaw does worse prio thjan its st
and does low aoe
and in raid you also do z everything
So what I'm hearing is outlaw is bad
What if i had 29% haste
Heya QQ about shiv and the arterial precision talent. Does it always prio targets with bleeds applied to them? For example if there is a huge pack of 14 mobs and I apply rupture and garrote on only 7 of them. When I shiv will it always go onto the 7 that has bleeds? Or is there a chance that it can be applied and spread to mobs with no bleeds based on luck?
Almost asked about bugs, then saw the pin 
what do u think its my best choice? maybe coins? trinket ?? or myth ring?
Answer is always
but probably myth track ring. It's vers heavy so you`ll have to make up stats elsewhere.
also in a language where it makes it harder for someone to answer 😛
how many sparks should we have so far? I only have 2.5
