I mean how many targets do you have
if you have 50 targets, you're casting garrote until your fingers bleed

so first pull of eco we just finger bleeding with the murloks
I think i am using too many bleeds in the bleed build in big packs. I see people aplying x3-4 casts of garrote and x2 rupture then full caustic spatter. any ideas?
This sounds sensible. We can look at logs if you have specific questions pertinent to your latest key or whatever
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/KTt3QZfkLa916Vyn?fight=last i have this floodgate (we had 6 deaths though) but my overall seems way worse than it should.
while I was searching for estimates of the dps% lost when Master Assassin is swapped for Iron Wire, I saw a few posts about dungeons where Iron Wire is good this season. A few days late, but I was very pleasantly surprised to find that it works on every mob in Halls that isn't a mini/boss. I expected it to only work on a few casters in a dungeon, like last season.
You can sim that
I’m on mobile, someone might be able to give a better review but just off the glance I can give, your caustic is suspiciously low
I’m out for the next hour but if no one takes a look within that time DM me
I always forget what the idiosyncrasies of simming assasination are--it's aoe sims that're unreliable?
Would assume some mark mismanagement or general bad envenom/whatever management
AoE sims are fixed, we generally prefer dungeonslice for all situations
AoE sims don’t take a lot of factors into account that dungeonslice does, such as restealthing/chain pulling, varying target counts, a boss fight
Dungeonslice is just more well rounded for what you actually encounter in a dungeon
Versus some hyper-specific aoe sim
We're progressing Loomithar right now and I'm getting called out for not blasting the adds more. I'm unable to do more than 75-100m
I see all logs hardly anyone hits the adds
Yeah, we can’t target swap for shit
Yep your RL is an idiot
You just hit boss and tell your raid to eat bricks
Or swap to the add for 2 pulls and show him damage
Sub doesn’t swap either
And be like “what do you want here?”
man, i love parsing a bit higher than other classes while doing 5-600k less dps
rogue is great you guys
I love it when raid leaders go on at rogues for low add damage when the classes that can actually damage adds are slacking and go un-hassled.
Its neat.
yeah jsut leave that guild because the raid leader is dumb
My RL is fine with it, you just see it posted so often in here.
Imagine volunteering to play a class that cant swap targets AND does shit ST
You just play for boss damage and then pump
for 10s, are we preferring hybrid or bleed? honestly dont even know what considered a low key since sifferent players have different ideas
me for the past 10 years

I just can't play anything else at a level I'm comfortable with 
No one plays hybrid
It’s awful
I enjoy sub, I'm just shit at sub
Was loom, but then again i had to switch targets...
Shouldve sent your message
!gear
me when i talent off CS on loomithar
👍

You were talented into caustic? Holy hell
Down horrendous
well i was for some of the prog pulls
then i realized i didnt need to
Hi, I think there’s a bug with my Rogue talent (Fatal Concoction / Fit Pound – the one that doubles Combo Point generation during Deadly Mark and Kingsbane).
Here’s what happens:
When I activate Deathmark and Kingsbane, the talent correctly doubles the Combo Points gained (so each generator gives 2 CP instead of 1).
Then, when I use Envenom twice in a row, it should properly consume the CP and increase the buff stacks as expected.
However, instead of stacking correctly, the talent seems to “skip” or remove 2 stacks after using Envenom. Basically, the buff does not stack as intended and it feels like the talent effect is bugged.
Can you check if this talent is currently bugged or not working as intended?
is the hybrid build better for 10+ and above than the bleed build? i feel like single target is severely lacking
damn there isnt one where hes just pointing
nothing will fix your ST
just play bleed
this spec is just bad at it in m+ builds
play bleed, top overall invite classes that do ST
it's true that bleed does not have the best ST comparatively but i think the reflex shouldn't just be "this is how it is". lots of players make mistakes and assume it's the fault of the spec
yeah, i guess that we cant have it all, but i just feel so weak to other classes comparatively
And then you look at details at the end of the run and you top overall?
usually yea
?
is this in mop
cus bleed aoe is good but prot warr almost does as much ST as me sometimes xD
do you know what the loss is?
there are lots of bugs in the pins. check if it's there
Do we have a talent that doubles combo point generation during kb?
what you do think is the better stats for raid ? full critc- mastery o some haste?¡
Doubling combo points during…. What?
That’s not a talent we have
whatever sims highest
not stat weights though, sim top gear
if assassination wasnt bugged would it pull ahead of sub?
That depends, are you also assuming sub bugs get fixed?
when im being told to go sub in keys
Glorious
I'm trying to figure out what spec to craft items for but i need some hopium to commit to one lol
Why would you need to craft for a spec
For sub if you avoid haste you're chilling anyhow
also crit master is just pretty good for both anyway who cares
Yeh just craft mast + not haste
i mean this talent dosent work the coin after use envenom
Vers/crit/mast, you're fine
It works fine, what are you expecting it to do
do a gazilljon damage
You press cold blood, the next two envenoms critically strike and match the previous coin flips
That’s why we cast cold blood after kingsbane, to match edge case flips
You got the bug
Happens
and legit was getting 96s few times
there's a bug that stops the CDR too? lmao
thank you
only knew about the one that gave you extra
Yes, rarely it can just not give any cdr
i usually got the 30 sec bug
and first time seeing that one
all I can say is fuck blizzard double bird
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.

Assassination uses no other macros aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial+Trinket
If you do get the 30 second bug. Is it better to just send it? Or hold/sync it with dm at 1min, if it also gets reduced?
and if you get none what? grief the pull? 
I haven't noticed a few times. Sending kb on its own at 30 seconds kinda sucks
bunch of top logs have the bug and send the kb immediately
I don't play assa much but... that bug seems fuckin' troll lmao
doesn't it also reduce deathmark cd (so they'd realign still, earlier than 1:30)
Sometimes?
It can be good. It can also be troll if it messes up your timings. And then it sounds like sometimes it just doesn't work at all
If you can get an extra cast it can be good
Like an extra dm in execute. Awesome.
anyway yeah - crazy bug. I only noticed these because I was considering if I should spec swap for loom, and it's hard to differentiate the logs of skilled players from those who won the lottery (blindside procs, tierset bug)
On sentinel, it makes it easier to get your kb and shiv off before he pushes you back.
On loomithar it could be good since you can cast your dm/kb before the webs come in. More tails dmg since your burst doesn't get nerfed 30%
In raid, should the prism be used every time we use the CDs or with Vanish?
!fuu
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
Vanish if playing fatebound
yeah, that happened
Guys, one question, have you already removed the bug from the Assa?
Coustic spatter is back?

there is no way to fetch the bug from logs if I held it right?
I either tripped balls or I got the cdr bug 2 times (+1 normal) after my 2nd DM

No, I've not simmed it yet--I ran keys and didn't see Whispyr's reply about simming M+ specs. I'm hoping it's a relatively low dps% loss because Wire is proving pretty nice for gathering packs. Made the first two big mini boss pulls of a +14 Priory go pretty smooth.
like 4-5%
If only I knew your stat weights
stat weights
2025

so im assuming that before the intermissions on M plexus, we just throw a garrote and rupture on his ass?
If you are only reapplying during pandemic then it should line up everytime to where you don't need to reapply right before the phase starts
gotcha ok thats something i havent looked at. So then that makes that fight and Araz timed (on a schedule) fights?

https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/dvagmGWYk1tDhAC9?fight=last&type=damage-done&modal=fight-selection @balmy condor can you tell me why i suck?
or anyone xD
dont have time for much but quick things
if you have prism bound to vanish, vanish before you do deathmark>kingsbane
so the coins are buffed by prism
your second shiv is late in deathmark, you want to shiv the full deathmark not back half of kb as fb
also dont use two shivs on lone kingsbanes
just shiv back half
you have not been vanishing after
rather my bad
you should be vanishing before
you've been vanishing after
like just vanish at some point just before you dm
so prism is buffing it all
as you shiv or whenever
What's the proper key level to start swapping off of the bleed build for a hybrid for M+ for more boss DPS? or do I just eat the boss DPS loss in higher keys too?
im looking at logs and all the rogues i am seeing are vanishing after kb and dm
because like i said, normally it doesnt matter
it matters specifically because you seem to have macroed prism to vanish
none
None really this tier
Its not worth tanking -10% aoe for like 1-2% ST
play bleed or swap to sub
yeah
gotcha
They need to make kingsbane baseline. Locks hunters and dks have insane aoe while they get to keep really good st aswell
And what if we have KB baseline
what does that do
Again,
that doesnt do anything
Because our bleed build
compliments our bleed
kingsbane would be absolutely shit in a bleed build
Kb isnt that strong, and its especially not strong without dragon tempered blades
^^
It would still be doing 2-4M dmg a tick which is a massive boost to Bleed Builds garbage ass ST
it really wouldnt
You underestimate how shit KB is
dragon tempered blades baseline would be sick
It is shit, but our Bleed Build ST is shit, so anything that enhances it some would be a win
this is an kingsbane completely buffed
it would not even do 30% of this
n a bleed build
And if they replaced it with a good node it might pull us out the fucking trash heap the bugs currently have us in
Tbh it's hard to buff bleed st without buffing aoe aswell
is completely arse
Yeah because you need to buff garrote + rupture
and then our aoe gets touched
And if you buff envenom caustic spatter is getting buffed aswell
yeah kb aint doing 4m a tick in bleed build buddy

😄
@timber pawn
This is with hacking it in, so not removing any talents for it (as its not worthwhile)
I mean we still do like
3m in bleed
i fail to see the issue with how gross our aoe is
I mean, if our apex talent would be really shit next expansion. we might see bleed + DT
Cuz you don't play with good dks
i mean if you’re doing like 2m as bleed
or mabye xiani just pumps?
I think a rework like that would be sick for all rogue specs tbh
Whod play outlaw without the cdr talent or crackshot
Whod play sub without sectech or flag
Idk if the assa thing would be DTB but i would enjoy a rework in that direction
It would need more than just 'this talent is baseline now guys fuck you'
Honestly i was laying in bed the other day and i was thinking. how nice would it be if we could have cheat death + elusiveness together
I feel doing like 3.5m as assa on pure 1t is fine
when we do 10m with a charge of shiv
on aoe
guys is it ever normal for sanguine blades to pull way ahead of caustic spatter in overall? (it's been consistently my 2nd highest damaging ability after CT in bleeds build at keystone levels ranging 12-13)
like no one’s denying sub st is better
No one does 3.5m pure st on bleed build
Ofc you can
you do
no i would say this means you aren't doing enough caustic damage
Especially if a boss dies soon after a dm
let me check for you
dm maghar is funny number go up
any tips for improving it? I'm guessing I don't spam enough envenoms in my shiv windows and so on?
your WA should show when CS is up - just maintain it!
yep without logs thats all we can say
Yeah its been funny
Rupture is here kinda high
Yeah caustic is bombing people
ct was like 20% a key last tier
xdddd
rupture is higher on logs than details
since corrupt the blood+sbs are baked into its bar
I must be scuffing something big time, I'd normally use my opener window of master assassin buff to rupture/garrote as many mobs as possible on a big pull and only then I would start pumping caustic spatter envenoms
What kinda keys are you doing?
What level
Yeah
SD is slacking this tier
12-13 lately but I've noticed it happening even on 10s
Yeah how lower your going
how less spatter will do
Yeah i mean 10s you'll be lucky
to get even 5 ruptures

unless group is massively dogwater
breh i watched a priory get abandoned
would you recommend a "hard stop" on x amount of targets to keep rupture on?
Situational honestly. 5 ruptures is very good. i would say 10+12 is a big overkill. but it also super depends on how long the pack is gonna live and so on
hahaa yeah
and someone brings an alt in greens
those are scuffed
i did a 10 aldani with soem friends
and we couldnt even kill the first boss
took us 10 tries

somehow those end better than some pug groups i see
SOMEHOW
i should stop doing 10s for vault slots
@spring hill to add on this. some times i do 10 ruptures or so. but i need to make sure that the 10 pack is living my entire rupture or atleast 75% of it
this shit is already animal territory
if someone ask me to do 7 keys. im saying im riding trough an tunnel
and i cant hear them
so why arent cursed enchants worth using right now?
and boom was capped
because they are
yeah i tend to do a map on an 11 on reset if i want some quick gilded
'cursed'
cursed net loses some stats
and assa likes everything
honestly i feel cursed enchants are only good for specs that have one stat which is a real stinker
which is the one that gives negative haste
oh its crit
when is it best time to vanish with bleeds build? I might have got a bit into the habit of vanishing when mobs approach <35% hp regardless of remaining duration of rupture/ct and then smack a big shiv on top of that, not sure if it's worth it
I always use 1 vanish in my DM. after IC. to reapply if needed ( is also very situational)
But the qeustion is
- do you have a pug tank ( hold one vanish) for chain pulling if needed
- do you have a friend tank you can talk about the route and you can vanish for a massive pack.
im normally doing this, i hold a vanish like all the time just cause the tanks i play with pull weird at some points.
yeah you can neve be sure
today I had some very bad luck with some tanks who barely let me restealth
average tank that does weird chaining doesnt even do it in a way for his personal dps gain

for real!
I mean restealthing isnt really needed. it actualyl slows the key in a negative way. but it also depends how the tank is chain pulling. if the mobs are 1/2/3% thats extremely bad. but chainpulling when they are 30/40% those are good imo
!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.
guys quick question. can we cloak the beam on M loomithar?
yes
thank you sir

@balmy condor with the most recent WA update what is the logic around the deathstalkers mark addition? I'm too illiterate to figure out what it means from the actual triggers
technically the logic is "don't shiv in single target if deathstalker's mark is up"
but the weakaura has to do some hacky alternate logic
hello, why is double on use simming 200k higher than crystal? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/s7gRT8386em3Cqe1WGMBDy should i trust it?
would numbing poison work on the tangle break?
what the
in what way
erm

making cast time longer
ill change it see what happens
should i just use lily and crystal ?
or signet and crystal
the.... cast time on the tangles, which don't cast?
I don't understand
but ignore double on use combinations
sorry the tank mechanic that they have to aim at the tangles. Isnt that a cast?
soul hunters with the add that spawns on mythic
it might not matter at all
no that doesn't work
but you wouldn't want that to be slower even if it did
why would you want to break the shield later
ya
true
Make sure you all send your rain dances for bug fixes to come on Tuesday with tuning. Do it or you curse us all.
I'm pretty sure we have been forgotten about. Maybe if we close down the rogue discord we will get attention?
No you just have not been doing your rain dances
i can't rain dance, what about tap dance?
Belly dance

Do we have a day counter of how long the most recent bugs have been live so I can send a bug report in each day with just the list and that day counter?
Just spamming them until I get banned or it's fixed 
well i have good news and bad news
bad news is it'll never get fixed
good news is you wont get banned because they wont even notice your reports

!pd
Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs
did they nerfed us?
feels like my dps gets lower by a ton
( i cant see any pin so its probably skill issue)
not pressing those buttons hard enough
Your press not hard enough when your finger doesnt hurt after a key and you have to do a break
the more times you press your buttons during the gcd the more damage you do
this is known
I can remember back in the days bc and wotlk my buddy in skype was always noticing when i reached the execute phase with my warrior
For my buddy it was sound like this
No pin 
We will fixed with midnight pre patch
we will start a new expansion with bugs
trust me 😄
I mean how long was shadowstalker buggy in df? 2 seasons 
12.0 same bugs
they dont even care 😭
can we take tight spender instead of improved ambush for M+ and/or raid?
you could but why would you want to
hes very thrifty
quick question - would it be better to refresh garrote/rupture outside pandemic before DM to avoid refreshing them during DM - or just refresh as needed during DM?
refreshing during dm is fine
it basically ONLY works if you don't have any source of free ambush in your build, so no Blindside, as any access to Ambush out of stealth will allow you to just do more damage due to extra combo points
I remember watching hamtaro as a kid, but I don’t remember a single thing in any episode other than anime hamsters
note that Tight Spender is a miniscule cut, 6% is like 1-2 energy per finisher, i.e. you'll get maybe 3-4 more finishers in a whole key?
not just us, its me in the middle with @maiden sierra, you, @zenith elm on the right side and @coral ibex @haughty flicker and @thorn thorn on the left

Huh, really?
yes
mr whippy went on a tangent about it a few weeks ago if you want a better source
after someone said one of the shitty guides was recommending to refresh bleeds outside of pandemic

there has been a large influx of logs that I'm looking at
that force refresh rupture
before a cd window
and it makes me very upset

some of them aren't even like "I saw it on asdjflkjalskdj"
most of them are just
"a friend told me that it's better idk"
which is arguably worse
cause we're just learning rogue via word of mouth
rather than using like
the sources of information from subject matter experts
like there exists resources where you could find out the correct rotation
but instead you listen to the shit ass blue parse ret paladin in your aotc who supported the discord shutdown and played a rogue in mop classic
so he obviously knows what he's talking about
it's very tilting
I could make a statement about how that's just life in 2025 because no one is listening to experts anymore and just grabbing info from chatgpt and governments around the world are leaning further right ideologically and building mistrust in journalism and doctors and other experts to instead peddle their own narratives and control the flow of information to further their seats of power
but
that would be incredibly bleak of me to say

idk characters with aura are a phenomenon
wats better for keys whetstone or algari mana oil ?
so whispyr i should vanish before every DM for DS. the 2nd charge of my Vanish can i use freely as i need?
and yall got me my 97 average heroic parse. so im happy with the information i'm getting here
avoiding the filter in a message to someone with the power to ban you might not be the best choice
but the government told me assa rogue is not bugged
well i tried
XD
Mana oil
Yes
idk the thought of sending deathmark with improved garrote talented and using a regular garrote is silly
didn't know mana oil was better than a whetstone, is it a lot or like 0.3% over?
!warn @vale fox Adding stars to the word doesn’t make it better, it’s still filter evasion, which is in fact a ban-able infraction of the rules
apologies didnt know
ohh this is something else i wanted to ask: if you reapply regular garrote over improved garrote too early does it change the dmg?
Yeh like 0.2-0.3
Yes
Pandemic only transfers duration, the damage the new application does is entirely dependent on the new cast
ok so you want to really wait until you do that
So going from regular garrote to improved garrote is fine
Improved garrote to improved garrote is fine
Improved garrote to regular garrote is bad
gotcha
yo how can i join the defias brotherhood role?
this discord deserves all the support it can get
swipe
does CT keep the original damage when cast on multiple targets if some of targets die?
like for example i CT 5 enemies. 3 of them die. do i let CT run out because it deals dmg as if it affected 5 targets or refresh it for 2?
You let it run out
That portion of CT snapshots
My weakaura also tracks that bonus if you use it
It’s the 1-5 on the CT
yea this was something i asked too lol. was always refreshing early and losing on a ton of dmg XD
i was using feelcraft and let CT run out so i guess feelcraft is good sometimes
wanted to be sure
@balmy condor are you aware you aren't getting recent vods on your twitch channel? I like to use them to watch you run your fingers through your hair but I'm 10 days dry
Twitch hates my vods cause of the music and keeps taking them down, they always take like 3-4 times until they actually post
Sorry about your goon
Will try again tonight
Thanks boss
M+ question: how do you guys use your kicks, silcence, stuns? Mousever macros? Focus macros? Any tips for effective use of cc in m+? i'm trying to improve and carry kesy in pugs. thx for your time
i do mouseovers. but i have a cursor trail to track my mouse easily
mouseover for small pulls, focus for big pulls. i keep a cast bar available for focus target frame as well in case i can't see the nameplate clearly during big pulls
focus kicks are way better than just target swapping or mouseover kicks
i use the old slice and dice bind for focus kick
and assa has the least ammount of binds our of the rogue specs
especially bleed
i'm trying to do the same, since i've had the same issues with nameplates overlapping. Any tip for setting up a focus target as fast as possible. I mean when you assigned caster dies, and u need a new focus
assign focus with mouseover macro and kick is set to focus first
it's really only useful on like bosses
i use a focus macro, you can do it mouseover or @target, however you see fit. after your focus target dies, most of the pack should be dead anyway, unless its priory
best advice is to find the caster the tank isn't sitting on and nuke it
i got mouseover everything tbh. rupture garrote envenom
ye those are clutch sometimes
feels nice to afk and just fan of knives, refresh ruptures, or ez mark swap with mouseover envenom
#showtooltip Kick
/focus [@mouseover,exists,nodead] []
/cast [@focus,exists,nodead] Kick; Kick
found this online, it should be good
i think
yeah but i keep the focus part in a separate macro
ok, nice
so i tap shift 3 i think to reassign focus
il have a separate kb
also so you can reset focus on ya tank after combat ends
without a bunch of downtime
lol i've forgotten to tricks and insta gibbed myself more than a few times this week
for tricks i use mouseover in the party frame
way easier than bothering with focus
idk it does just feel like that auto tank weak aura is the play
not worth being a caveman over tricks honestly lol(thinking about lime tang rn tbh)
anyone mind pointing out what i did wrong here? trying to push for higher parse ( other than wrong talent causic over internal bleeding )https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Pf1g6yk7dmaCL3MX?fight=6&type=damage-done&source=134

izi question i think
why some rogues are using araz on keys and not netherprism
and if is worth for like floodgate i run araz and nether prism for get 18 stacks for momma
maybe they dont have netherprism
2 mins good for death stalker?
I dont understand how this is a question
clickable weakauras should be banned
i agree too, its just when i sim, the dmg from nether is stronger
they cause taint and weakauras wasn't made to be clickable
🐐
taint dn
on sims , the nether does more dmg, and when i see some runs, they are using the araz
im talking about assa only btw, but i know like sub can run araz and nether also
Araz is a 2 min. We are a 2 min is m+. “The nether does more damage” I’d bet not in m+
Higher highs on every few packs maybe. It’s good but Araz is probably better on avg
this is the first one i tried that is clickable, imported it when started playing assa, but it dissapears when you go in combat !
i was thinking like that
especcialy on demand damage at some key starts
You can pry the vantus weak aura I have from my cold dead hands
Do you ever get those messages "action has failed because of x addon"
bruh just set up a mouseover action bar
I just have an add-on for poisons, it works
Default ai >
I have poison reminder aura on my buffs
then I just have a left click/right click macro
for poisons
i will if I ever have any problems with it, but for now it's fine and i just wanted to answer my fellow rogue's question !
Do you ever get those messages "action has failed because of x addon"
clickable auras are one of the causes of that 
I've heard different things. Are you guys using CT on ST or no?
For bleed build I mean
yes
I thought so. Was getting flamed by a guildy for using it. Good to know.
the 3rd boss in street menagerie, can you just stay in and evasion her deathspin?
yes
perfecto mundo
you can also tank the 1st boss with feint up till 13 at least
the slam down?
you need to make sure your back doesnt face the boss though, she will shred you
just take hands off keyboard when you pop evasion
What talents are you using on raids? Do you swap between bosses? FB bulid provided on wowhead guide is to go?
what is this and where can i find it?
Well you mostly play FB except council dh I guess
how in the hell is this possible? KB again after that short time?
Bug
They just turbo buffed bm but cant fix rogue bugs
yes, we need to lock down rogue discord just like the 2.5 button rotation divine storm champs did, to get noticed by blizz! 😅
I really wonder how many people are working on tww atm I'd assume most of the wow team is busy with midnight
Bug fixing seems very low on the priority list
All of this shi happend because of a bug fix like they should just revert the bug fix and do it so it works
Aint no way that takes long to do
Worst case we just get our 8% caustic bug back lul
I know i would not be out here complaining if that was the case
!sheet
Rogue Spreadsheet - Light Version / Dark Version
the double proc bug do be like that :3
how does the bug even work? just random cdr or?
was on vacation why are ppl playing sub now? is assa not viable after bugs?
Tbf, it was mainly raid targeted
Hence why DR recived the brunt of the buffs and is now the go to for most raid encounters
but yea
it's outragous that rogue wasn't fixed
We're still good though so, it's fine
Most people see online videos saying "OMG ASSA IS SO BAD NOW 15% NEFF WJTH BUGS!!!!" And go with it
Meanwhile we're still topping meters
thats what i thought
i think those ppl don't know how to play ASSA...............
Obviously they don't
yeah...
How much of a dps loss are bugs even in m+ with bleed build atm?
Again, we could be a bit better, especially in m+ if caustic / singular focus was working
like 4% or so?
yeah M+ i think i would like 2% or 4% better, but raid im very comfy.
and thats in ST not AoE
Raid is good. We do lose the funnel aspect of DS in things like araz/soul but eh
Same but soul
yeah i gotta learn DS on soul but i get that.
Apart from st encounters ofc
Ive been telling myself for years that I'd do that one day. That day hasn't come yet
I literally am incapable of playing sub
(I've never bothered learning)
im kinda the same, i can do the burst phase, but when i bottom out i feel so BAD
Just play it in m+ u will learn quick
Learning only trough raid is very much more difficult
I used to play sub in m+ during DF S1!!!
I enjoyed it
Then things changed a bit
And I went back to 100% assa

Storm black powder x infinity. The good ol days
Right?!
Actually tho
we ballin in new gym today

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
Shuriken stom into black powder was definitly peak gameplay
I was doing it s1 and s2 :D
having: Netherprism, Ritual Forge, Lily & Ara'Kara trinkets would you still just go for what sim tells you to? I cant get Netherprism to ever sim higher than a 697 lily + 710 ritual forge. Ara seems only to be up there on ST when simming.
Lily + ritual forge is bad in the first place
You dont want 2 on use
That aside, simming aint wrong
So I should try to get my hands on antenna or pacemaker I guess
Definitely
Even the dawnbreaker trinket could work
Or soleahs
Just gotta sim to see what to farm
Thanks (Y)
Pacemaker was best for me until Antenna
paired with ritual forge? :)
12d since last pin
starting to lose hope x)
threaten to close discord?
That's it, close outlaw. That'll show them.
Actually wait, we need the outlaw containment zone
Man I miss shadowlands
Jk
Let us do the ret way D:
save it for midnight
we´ll get bugfixes by then IF WE ARE LUCKY
they are just saving them for next expansion so the 3 new hero talents don't break them again copium
Heyey! Can I ask a super quick question?
Playing Assassin Deathstalker in M+, what talent do you drop if you want Iron Wire?
:(
i´m assuming you´re running standard bleed, right?
I can!
cause i feel like 2 shiv is a way bigger dps gain
I dropped Doomblade personally
2nd shiv charge or Master Assassin
if you can, run a dungeon slice sim with both options, dropping shiv in one and spkies on the other
huh
Not doomblade, Master Assassin
What do you get for the 2nd point then if you're not running doom- ah yeah
Brain fart 😂
Thanks for the help tho <3
It's not possible to drop Doomblade haha, was a brainfart don't mind me 😂
rogue friends
i have friends? 
Iron Wire is too good for PuGs imo
yes
true
i have considered running it for dungeons like priory
with those slices with 700 casters
where pugs just dig in their assholes while holding kicks for god knows what
I normally only do 10s-12s anyways, so not sure if it matters much higher up with well coordinated groups
But at my level, it's a lifesaver
ty to whoever looked at my logs ^_^
btw
kinda unrelated but
the cheesy cloak to immune loom's big slam
i love making people freak out
last week my raid lead was like
ok this guy not moving is dead
nothing happens
wuh??

looking for a nice wa, im tired of having my bars in the middle of my screen
You guys think our m+ ST will ever get a bit of love?
not likely
Every class seems to be getting buffed. Getting harder and harder to keep at the top of the meters 🤣😭
is mm hunter just busted? was here a year ago when it wasnt great lol
Our aoe is good yeah but honestly, with all the other class buffs happening, it's not exactly impressive.
Anyone else see kess doing 55m on the first FG pull on his evoker? 🤣
yeah
I love rogue, but we do seem to be the middle child of the classes.
They're getting buffed as well lool
dev is getting buffed again?
Yeah
Evoker is fun, but the movement and charged spells in m+ feel bad
Plus Aug and pres are dog shit so I guess the class doesn't appeal to too many
Favoritismo 
Just tell ur tank to pull adds with boss and all your problems will disappear. Preferably 4
also we shouldn't hate on them
aren't they a sub 5% class like us?
underpicked brothers
Yeah that's what I've been trying to do. Nice when it happens but rare in a pug.
man, wish we could just rupture our party members
bleed for me bitches
Thatd be sick
Just had a tank rage quit because he pulled all the mobs including the gargoyles on the side in to the 2nd boss in a 10 HOA and died.
bleed and give me %Agi
no condom in his wallet
bc the only thing he's fucking is STUPID
A personal headache of mine is when tanks pull a single pack with all my CDs up as UHDK.
Most specs has their drawbacks
Worst part was, we could have timed still but he stood there and waited for 12 minutes for the timer to run out so he could leave without getting deserter
anyone gonna tell blizzard we deleting this discord if the bugs arent fixed
bruh i tried hard mode taza last night
i told my tank to take it easy-ish
he pulled the first pack and then 2 adds
we sat there killing 2 adds
i was like okay, not that easy
💀🤣 oh naaa
Mods please start timing out people that ask for the server to close so this stops happening
i feel like
Just look at them sideways
A personal favourite of mine is when a tank pulls 2 mobs. Waits 20 secs, pulls 2 more waits a bit, pulls 1 more.
I wish that worked
also my favorite pull method
my personal fav is when they wait till 1% to chain another pull
dude same
no stealth but also EVERYONE LOST THEIR CLEAVE UPTIME
blows cd for free stealth**
I made a tank and invite rogues to my pugs deliberately to make them feel good for once.
godsent
Tanks outta know how to pull around their team’s CDs, but you cant expect too much from tanks. God forbid they have to use their brains once or twice.
hello guys can we craft 2x everforged stabber ?
no
"why are you pulling mobs on the boss if we don't need to" the rogue just being silent but I know he's happy.
ur lucky if a tank bothers to set a decent non troll route
don't make the same mistake as me
"well 4 years ago this was my hoa route wdym % got changes"
Mobs on boss should be the norm. I wish blizz would just implement that. Like 1 or 2 trash packs tied to the boss as a form of silent Assa tuning 🤣
For real. I was telling my buddy to do it and see the difference in my dps on bosses when he does.
Be me and craft the int dagger instead
4am crafting after a night out is not advisable
It’s a big difference, specially on overall damage at the end of the key. And it saves a ton of time. Some specs, such as Assa, benefit greatly from having more than one target.
I mean, if you can pull mobs on to the boss, I don't know why you wouldn't
Especially in higher keys where the time is so punishing
Pulling mobs to bosses requires non-linear thinking.
I've personally found streets to be the most punishing time wise this season
Overall I like the current dungeon rotation. Although I'd be happy if I stopped falling through the boat in DB 🤣
Luckily I’ve never had that happen to me
you can craft a belt if not playing M raid
or a ring or neck if you aren´t having luck with those
thx !
"bis" neck and 1 ring come from m+, other one comes from plexus so
those first 2 can take a while to get
recommendation is to always sim it to see what your biggest upgrade is tho
but i have no idea of how to sim for crafts
same as other items, just add them into your topgear
Search box at the top
Same
Fastest way is to droptimizer crafting items though
fuck hoa

is mythic lily better than H forge for ds?
i'm pondering my vault options (knowing it will still be garbage)
Is there any way to extract only a mod from a plater profile?
I just want a way to change the color of the nameplates for the mob which has Deathmark on it
there is a weakaura for this
"oh yay 2 delves trinkets.. again"
Adds a nameplate border on your Deathstalkers Mark target. Based on https://wago.io/mvDfXxrt3
I mean if you know how to use plater you can probly find it and copy it for dm yourself
But personally i just add the debuff highlight
Those are really easy to set up
+10 Eco
is elemental bad for m+? or is it just the players?
i keep seeing ele shammys doing sub tank dmg
Tank pulled big and fast, I did my best to bleed
also warrior but still
Hunter was pumping with his Beast Cleave
Elemental is among the best specs for m+
So yeah playerissue
lol
His Overall
On every trash pull he was barely squeaking by the tnak
they have to be doing something EXTREMELLY wrong
Either that or a rat alt that got smuggled maybe?
could be
damn sucks in priory paladin area if you never get to restealth.. paladin is just about to die and then the next pack is pulled haha
what was their ilvl?
Gimme a sec
just vanish
or like apply 5 ruptures manually
you get almost full combo from a single fok anyway in those pulls
yeah I do
happened to me last night.. bricked my +12 due to a 710ilvl ele who de 4.5 overall.. was wondering the same thing
698 on last logout
there's no way lol
reminds me of sunkings blessing as fire mage though when the tank doesn't pull the next pack and i have like 3 seconds to cast... annoys me
That Eco-Dome right there he healed, it's not the only we just did
(this is his M+ page btw)
Also here's Details
That healer was insane, the tank was on a suicide mission
Only 2 deaths in the entire dungeon, both were the Shaman
bro im just stealing memes other guys send
Wait shit, I had it on the wrong tab. There were 7
i mean, mythicstats shows ele doing 4.9M avg on week 1 so
that dude was just sleeping on the keyboard
!chain
Hey! With the bleed build in M+ on full single target are you suppose to stay above 50% energy to maximize sanguine blades, and if so how strict should I be with it ? 😄 Thanks
No
tazavesh streets glitched again on market game for the 3rd key in a row 🙃
What’s the glitch?
