Still cursed tbh

balmy condor
#

I mean how many targets do you have

#

if you have 50 targets, you're casting garrote until your fingers bleed

mental trout
#

so first pull of eco we just finger bleeding with the murloks

tawdry halo
#

Until the IC window ends

#

Yes

#

Use garotte to generate combo points

coral walrus
#

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?

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 always forget what the idiosyncrasies of simming assasination are--it's aoe sims that're unreliable?

balmy condor
#

Would assume some mark mismanagement or general bad envenom/whatever management

balmy condor
#

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

balmy condor
#

Yeah, we can’t target swap for shit

tawdry halo
#

Yep your RL is an idiot

balmy condor
#

You just hit boss and tell your raid to eat bricks

tawdry halo
#

Or swap to the add for 2 pulls and show him damage

balmy condor
#

Sub doesn’t swap either

tawdry halo
#

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

red schooner
#

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.

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

humble verge
#

damn there isnt one where hes just pointing

runic hinge
#

this spec is just bad at it in m+ builds

#

play bleed, top overall invite classes that do ST

main bridge
#

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

violet flint
#

yeah, i guess that we cant have it all, but i just feel so weak to other classes comparatively

runic hinge
#

And then you look at details at the end of the run and you top overall?

violet flint
#

usually yea

violet flint
#

cus bleed aoe is good but prot warr almost does as much ST as me sometimes xD

#

Do we have a talent that doubles combo point generation during kb?

inner cave
#

what you do think is the better stats for raid ? full critc- mastery o some haste?¡

balmy condor
#

That’s not a talent we have

#

not stat weights though, sim top gear

if assassination wasnt bugged would it pull ahead of sub?

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

you can just recraft stats

if u wanna swap fully

do a gazilljon damage

balmy condor
#

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

quick question

#

did i do smtn wrong here?

#

I didnt get 4p cdr

#

i see 8 tails

balmy condor

You got the bug

and thats a kill man

i got 3 parse

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

balmy condor
#

Yes, rarely it can just not give any cdr

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.

#

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?

balmy condor
#

I just hold for cb at 0:45 and go from there

#

Get things back on track

sand lichen
#

and if you get none what? grief the pull? OMEGAKEKW

#

I haven't noticed a few times. Sending kb on its own at 30 seconds kinda sucks

pliant silo
#

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

balmy condor
#

I’m getting 99/100’s just holding

pliant silo
#

doesn't it also reduce deathmark cd (so they'd realign still, earlier than 1:30)

silk sundial
#

Sometimes?

pliant silo
#

I zee

#

loom M 100

silk sundial
#

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

balmy condor
#

If you can get an extra cast it can be good

pliant silo
#

rank 2 guy got the bug twice

#

crammed an extra KB at the end

silk sundial
#

Like an extra dm in execute. Awesome.

pliant silo
#

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)

silk sundial
#

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%

# runic hinge do you know what the loss is?

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.

or anyone xD

haughty flicker
#

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

vocal cradle
#

lol i do

#

i have been vanishing after

#

so bleeds vanish envenom?

haughty flicker
#

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

idle lodge
#

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?

vocal cradle
haughty flicker
#

it matters specifically because you seem to have macroed prism to vanish

vocal cradle
#

ahh so they are likelying hitting prisim before everything

#

gotcha

spice surge
#

Its not worth tanking -10% aoe for like 1-2% ST

coral ibex

play bleed or swap to sub

haughty flicker

#

They need to make kingsbane baseline. Locks hunters and dks have insane aoe while they get to keep really good st aswell

marsh fjord
#

what does that do

timber pawn
#

Gives KB to Bleed Build

#

Can you imagine

marsh fjord
#

Again,

#

that doesnt do anything

#

Because our bleed build

#

compliments our bleed

#

kingsbane would be absolutely shit in a bleed build

spice surge
#

Kb isnt that strong, and its especially not strong without dragon tempered blades

marsh fjord
#

^^

timber pawn
#

It would still be doing 2-4M dmg a tick which is a massive boost to Bleed Builds garbage ass ST

marsh fjord
#

You underestimate how shit KB is

latent kernel
#

dragon tempered blades baseline would be sick

timber pawn
#

It is shit, but our Bleed Build ST is shit, so anything that enhances it some would be a win

marsh fjord
#

it would not even do 30% of this

#

n a bleed build

timber pawn
#

And if they replaced it with a good node it might pull us out the fucking trash heap the bugs currently have us in

marsh fjord
#

So lets say 10 million

#

10 mill on a boss in an dungeon

reef aspen
#

Tbh it's hard to buff bleed st without buffing aoe aswell

marsh fjord
#

is completely arse

marsh fjord
#

and then our aoe gets touched

reef aspen
#

And if you buff envenom caustic spatter is getting buffed aswell

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)

waxen oyster

new tier makes caustic closer to ct

than it was last tier

marsh fjord

Yeah caustic is bombing people

waxen oyster
#

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

spring hill
marsh fjord
#

What level

waxen oyster
#

Lower keys you need to get CT out sooner

#

tbh

marsh fjord
#

Yeah but if its low keys that he is doing

#

it would make sense

#

that spatter is low

waxen oyster
#

12-13

#

ig so

marsh fjord
#

Yeah

waxen oyster
#

SD is slacking this tier

spring hill
marsh fjord
#

how less spatter will do

waxen oyster

to get even 5 ruptures

tanks that chain low make 0 sense

its 0 benefit

spring hill

today I had some very bad luck with some tanks who barely let me restealth

waxen oyster

average tank that does weird chaining doesnt even do it in a way for his personal dps gain

spring hill
#

for real!

marsh fjord
#

!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.

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

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 garf_sit that would be incredibly bleak of me to say

haughty flicker
little tulip
#

idk characters with aura are a phenomenon

lean drum
#

wats better for keys whetstone or algari mana oil ?

vale fox
#

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

haughty flicker
#

avoiding the filter in a message to someone with the power to ban you might not be the best choice

vale fox
#

thats just how i write the word. its the internet

#

here lemme fix it

midnight atlas
#

but the government told me assa rogue is not bugged

haughty flicker
#

well i tried

vale fox
#

XD

balmy condor
little tulip
#

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?

balmy condor
#

!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

vale fox
#

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?

balmy condor
#

Pandemic only transfers duration, the damage the new application does is entirely dependent on the new cast

vale fox
#

ok so you want to really wait until you do that

balmy condor
#

So going from regular garrote to improved garrote is fine

#

Improved garrote to improved garrote is fine

#

Improved garrote to regular garrote is bad

vale fox
#

gotcha

#

yo how can i join the defias brotherhood role?

this discord deserves all the support it can get

thanks a bunch

midnight atlas
#

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?

balmy condor
#

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

vale fox
midnight atlas
#

i was using feelcraft and let CT run out so i guess feelcraft is good sometimes

#

wanted to be sure

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

vale fox
midnight atlas
#

focus kicks are way better than just target swapping or mouseover kicks

vale fox
#

^ he's right

#

but im out of bars.

#

so mouseover it is for me XD

midnight atlas
#

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

harsh wraith
little tulip
#

assign focus with mouseover macro and kick is set to focus first

#

it's really only useful on like bosses

midnight atlas
little tulip
#

best advice is to find the caster the tank isn't sitting on and nuke it

harsh wraith
#

thx guys

#

much appreciated

midnight atlas
#

i got mouseover everything tbh. rupture garrote envenom

little tulip
#

ye those are clutch sometimes

midnight atlas
#

feels nice to afk and just fan of knives, refresh ruptures, or ez mark swap with mouseover envenom

harsh wraith
#

found this online, it should be good

#

i think

little tulip
#

yeah but i keep the focus part in a separate macro

harsh wraith
#

ok, nice

little tulip
#

so i tap shift 3 i think to reassign focus

harsh wraith
#

il have a separate kb

little tulip
#

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

harsh wraith
#

i know the feeling

#

thx again

midnight atlas
#

for tricks i use mouseover in the party frame

#

way easier than bothering with focus

little tulip
#

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)

why some rogues are using araz on keys and not netherprism

maybe they dont have netherprism

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

it's outragous that rogue wasn't fixed

like 4% or so?

forest nacelle

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

i just run fatebound for everything

Just play sub in raid tbh

yeah i gotta learn DS on soul but i get that.

Apart from st encounters ofc

I literally am incapable of playing sub

(I've never bothered learning)

forest nacelle

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

wait, can you drop spikes and not lose the lower tree?
