I'm playing wind waker atm and I found one of those old school gamefaq ascii guides
Only real ones will remember
I am john wowhead
d4 is my job, wow is my hobby
So you prefer wow
yes
if I have to play an ARPG I play poe 1
cause poe2 is the most dogshit awful thing I have ever played
and d4 is just meh
Pö2 is cool
I enjoyed d3 but d4 never gripped me
Still not finished the story
Wish Lilith gripped me

poe2 is like if you took the poe 1 skill system, but you told a 3 year old to redesign it
but then you also decided to randomly give the game perma temp chains
mmm its certainly a choice they've made
well i mean different lead so
but yeah i can't get into it like i did poe1
struggle to push through campaign
attaching skill gems to weapon types and then you need like 5 different currencies and until this patch you couldn't wear the same support gem in two different skills
like
?????
i don't hate the skill gem/slot thing tbh
this is your upgraded version after 15 years of poe 1 design?
what the fuck is your brain damage
but the support gem system is madness
you designed an ARPG for over a decade
you're like okay
sequel time
and your first decision is to add 17 layers of arbitrary locks and rules and currencies to the skill system
like you have to be stupid surely
the game LOOKS beautiful, i can even get behind the "no more one button build" stuff but
The ascendency system alone is enough for me to not want to play it
why did it have to be so slow
bro don't even get me started on that

"you guys loved sanctum, right?"
"why are you upset"

my hopium is that they haven't finished that system but the want ascendancies
so just ctrl c ctrl v
the thing that drives me up the fucking wall even further is when some poe2 cocksucker hits you with the "it's still early access like stop crashing out, it'll change, it's not even 1.0"
like shut the fuck up you twat GGG didn't have to release an absolute slop fiesta
they made the decision to release early access like this
like deadass I'd rather play release d4 than current poe2
it's that fucking garbage
it is unfathomable to me how shit that game is
When im going back and enjoying poe 1 lab because of how bullshit poe 2 ascendency is you know its cooked
I don't think poe2 ascendancies are that hard if you play a decent build. balance is just awful so if you play the wrong thing its an issue
Cooked L take
Ur talking as if u 1 shotted every boss with ur builds on poe 2 release day
I didn't
It stayed fucked up for an entire week then literally everyone stopped playing it
but I'd be lying if I entered a trial of ascendancy right now and failed it
It was literally darksouls on poe
Thats omega fried
Crazy how ppl flamed d4
When it was so goood
yeah what does the trial from 9 months ago have to do with current trials?
d4 was giga rough on launch too tbh
it's pretty playable now
second expansion soon
hopefully fixes the rest
and then it's an actual good game
I agree but i enjoyed it honestly
Druid felt rly nice to play
Bearform just smashing everything infront
And werewolf tornado
Was kinda cool
I liked leveling and seeing the zones first time in d4. got bored at endgame. the talent system they had was also really poor. haven't tried the new xpc
I think ur biased because of poe’s talent system
nah he's kinda real for that
no
d4 skill tree sucks
I never touched poe and i saw the talent system to be fine until recently
on d4 launch I could talent my fireball to be
the exact same
or the exact same
repeat for every single skill
instead of allowing you to change ur skills to feel meaningfully different
yeh, they attached those to uniques for some reason
no new pins
what's this, week four of no fixes??
actually checked, it fucking is, week five on tue/wed
but even then, it's nowhere close to poe1
I like poes talent trees but it really doesn't have to be a giant web. its a bit much for a lot of ppl
Im not a fan of uniques personally
I feel like they add useless bloat to the game
Rest is all kinda good i like the uber uniques
the problem is that skills don't really augment skills, they just give it additional passive shit
and items are required to just make the builds work
Very true yea
Anyway I might try out d4 next xpac its just that people are so turbo negative about these kinda games
like if I read ur conversation here I'd come to believe that poe2 is the worst thing ever but the player retention is just fine. people are having a decent time despite plenty of things that can use a lot of improvement
I firmly believe poe2 will be a great game in 2032
but releasing it as early access in this state
is actually offensive
but I guess that's just how games work in current year
you release some half baked garbage
slap an early access sticker on it
put a 0.x in front of the patch number
and then are absolved of all crimes
so many games do it these days
Im a burnt child with early access. I played ark in it for years and while i still played the game got to 1.0 and i just didnt noticed it till someone told me. I keep my fair distance from early access games nowadays
and then you said "oh yeah btw 1.0"
be so fucking fr
most games aren't around for 9 years
yeah this is what I mean. I really don't think poe2 released in an offensive state.
to each their own
warframe has been in open beta since 2013
no official "actually the beta is over" statement has been given since, I think
yeah of course. I'm just saying I think theres a lot of discourse around these games that is insanely negative which I don't think is entirely fair, it just comes from being jaded.
Like I haven't played diablo4 recently and part of it is because I have to read all this insane shit like its the worst thing ever, when its probably a decent enough time
Can someone take a look at my logs? AOE i feel like im ok in mythic plus but when it comes to single target on bosses I am very lacking always thirdd some times behind tank

If you mean ST in M+ its normal that we do shit damage
If you mean ST in raid we have a problem
sounds like M+ yeah
congratulation on the promotion ^^
ty
one of the best games in history
its interessting that a mincraft mod basically created an entire genre ^^
but well.
- Mobas
- Autochess
- Tower defense
etc. all came from custom maps too, so its not that unusual
it happened, sufficient crit for sims to pivot from councils guile 
Discord moment wtf
There we go
I cant wait until they finish it, hope they dont pull another settlers with PoE1 along the way
0.3 was a lot better than 0.2 but it still needs so much work that im not confident it would be ready without going into double digits on the patch number
i made poe2 pls be nice
How much did it take? I need to know when I should switch
is there something i am missing , i see so much rogue going for pure stats weapon enchants, but my sims dont even show it in results when i try them
Are you ticking the replace existing box?
i found just when u posted it , didnt even see i unchecked it
what's the (should we?) third item everyone's crafted? or do i just fill a low slot?
ring?
!crafting
!craft
Preferences currently are wrist/dagger for embellishment depending on what you go for
Darkmoon Sigil Ascension (dagger) + Writhing Banding (wrist) is generally "the best" overall, but Blessed Weapon Grip + Dawnthread can be VERY VERY slightly better in m+
Always craft a dagger for at least an offhand. Put Ascencion or Blessed Weapon Grip on it. Additional Crafts should be Wrist (maybe Belt later in the patch after dropping the delve belt) for your second embellishment, after that whatever low item level slot is fine, necks can be good crafts.
If you have a myth track weapon in your main hand already read the above and pick whatever you prefer

Barbarian 
Fury warr lookin ah
(I have 0 idea about arpgs) mister Dominic Diablo
Rogues in Diablo 4 are kinda weird ngl
They tried to do like an archer/assassin hybrid thing
So you end up having like traps but also sniper skills
And a combo point system
But it’s all a bit jumbled together
Sounds like more typical assassins realistically, Also screw you for spamming wowhead with Diablo bc most of us can’t figure out how to filter it
There’s separate webhooks for discord servers and you can set your news preferences using the filter on the home page if you’re logged in, that will remember on your next visits
!bugs
is d4 barbarian bugged as well?
Kinda yeah, every season some shit breaks and they fix it next season
But it’s really hard to test things in d4 cause you have to just kinda hit dummies and look at the numbers flying out
So a lot of it kinda goes under the radar
The funniest bug I remember is they added something on ptr, a gem you can socket
It went live for 1 season, then they removed it
And for the next 2 seasons, people found exploits to get it back
And they had to hotfix patch it out on like day 2
Just for another exploit to happen the next day
They’ve “removed” that damn thing like 7 or 8 times now

There’s still a bug where you randomly get a minimap icon for an event from like 1.5 years ago
And there’s nothing there
It’s just the icon floating on your map for no reason
That’s a fun one
hard to avoid bugs with the complexity of some video games

John wowhead
Hi whuspyr
So I’ve been grinding content and learning the ropes…my overall in keys 12-14 has been like 4-5m…my dumbass didn’t have weapons enchanted and I switched more mastery and now I’m doing 7.5-8m overall haha 😂
downed AOTC tonight, so ya boi can now move on to stage 2 raid logging
fuck yeah
do u guys swap to infused tangles on Mythic Loom or sit on boss? Seems like it dies way too quick for anything except maybe an envenom or two?
yeah i dont either, but now have to pull some logs to explain to RL why 🙁 most rogue logs have it at like 0-5% max dmg on it
as assassin no point
Not really a point as sub either, because either you are outside dance and do literally nothing or you use dance on them and waste half of your dance globals and you do even less boss damage than youre already doing
if they are not dying, and you are wiping to it, then i guess you can try and envenom them, but if your raid dont got the dps to kill the orbs, i dont think you have the dps to do p2
yeah that seems to be the conensus and what other rogue logs show. thx
"I fucking hate boomkins man" -Famous philosopher Gromnak
"they are not even people"
can we hate boomies and acrane mages?

im in for 1600
Boomkins are basically arcane mages with feathers if you think about it.
Both casters, both use arcane spells.
Both idiots.
Like, same thing. One's just in a fursuit.
is now a bad time to say i've played arcane
there is an arcane mage that comes to our guilds social raid, this is their opener on fractilus
Yes mythic plus but often times i come short behind tank i single target boss damage https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/LFRw7NgVYbpnPj2c?fight=11&type=summary
My guilds social raid failed to kill fractilus hc this week 
You're not hitting crimson tempest enough
Or keeping caustic sptter up on mobs
I'd recommend you to go read the wowhead guide a bit more carefully and practice on the dummies, your problems are pretty baseline assa rogue
is the log bugged for me, how are you timing a 12 with that dps
Yeah, that just seems.... very low across the board unless I'm missing something.
M+ logs ain't my forte
its streets and log dps isnt same as details
Ok what about single target damage against boss?
ah
Use crimson tempest in single target
you don't even have 100% uptime on garrote and rupture on the first boss 
and no CT uptime at all
crimson tempest on single?
Yup
If you don't run amplifying poison (which we don't on bleed build), you CT in single target
all of it matters
I mean, garrote on target gives you energy back which is, sort of needed.
assa ST damage is not great so you need to maintain every bleed all of the time to get the most damage you can
are you spamming envenom as soon as you fill up or do you have to wait til 50% energy like gide says
guide(
Do not wait for 50% energy, its a minimal gain and hard to execute without fucking yourself over.
Just hit envenoms.
also if your tank wasn't an ass you coulda pulled the last pack in mailroom onto boss
yes and rupture the adds for energy
Single target, ignore the 50% thing. AoE you should be drowning in energy so its no big deal.
i played with a tank yesterday that just understood the assignment in a halls
it was one of the most fun experiences i've had in keys
pulled adds onto every boss
On your details what is the number one damage dealer? Mines shows garrote and rupture
Pure single target or overall?
overall
CT and caustic
CT should be the highest normally I thought.
you're not pressing CT on bosses, that's alot of lost uptime
+10 priory
That was my overall in the last m+ I did, I ain't the best m+ player but like
for CT do you keep spamming it until all the adds are affected?
Rutpure is pretty high up there in high keys, no?
the overall
EDA 15
can you provide me a log so I can study it?
no, you just upkeep it, and recast as it gets low, sometimes i refresh outside pandemic if adds are gonna die before i'll be ready to cast agian
probably not, i dont log
I'm just holding out til I hit the point where I can abandon m+ for the season
And then I return to my natural state of raidlogging
i can go to playing 1 toon now, nothing i need for one of my toons now
M+ dps in +10 is very variable
Big pulls, drag groups once casters die, stack groups on boss to reduce dps dips. Basically the only spot with ST is boss 2
you can compare yourself to the other dps in the group
How big is tank pulling. Is he bringing add into boss. Is everyone insta killing everything
U cant really compare yourself in +10 depending on comp
Yeah, the tank variance is probably the biggest thing
The average tank doing a 10 for vault is
Ehhh
I’ve seen more tanks gun shy of chain pulling pugs in the 14-17. Like some assassin rogue has been mentally abusing them into thinking we need absolutely everything dead and restealths between each pull
Yea, i've been telling my tanks to just straight up ignore me as a rogue
healers are so dumb in ara lol
isnt this guy paying loads just to have this listed? xd
was checking for inky black pot for nexus prog
but
hes probably engaging in money laundering where the listing price is trivial
ngl playing the auction house for the odd dumbass that lists an item for the wrong price is pretty fun if ur ever bored
I had this dumb thought the other day. Rogues are one of two classes that can poison something. Why don’t we have an antidote?
Party comp makes huge diff
the antidote to all ur problems is cloak of shadows
Yaya
trvth
but yea, crimson vial could be renamed antidote and i'd be happy w that ngl
That was after a lot of Ara bricks on last boss to rot and dumb shaman. Then went Druid heals and never looked back
priory feels like an easy key save for first boss
i dont even get to play the game before ppl give up xd
i just despise that first boss with everything
Pally divine hammer is very troll in there (ARA)
healer panics lets an early heal go and back to lfd
i still dont know how 2nd boss works in priory lol
do i need to get an orb
You stack for the hammers when they drop, you move away
thtas p much it
Then you stack again so the shields come down in the same place so you can move to soak
i cant tell if im being gaslit to grab an orb
You grab one orb, you hit feint
Yeah, you can soak 2 usually with cloak of shadows
You grab both, then cloak
oh okay
You can't cloak, then grab them
Has to grab both, then cloak and you'll be okay
Other than that, you're pretty tanky on rogue, so I do my best to always grab one orb
Also if you grab one orb in the beginning, and then you wait until the very last like 4 seconds, you can grab a second orb without stacking the debuff
^ this is common tech for 5 soaks without immune classes
Cloak only immunes during the first second of it
^ Yea cloak has this very niche wording
am i tripping or is there a knock back too
And it doesnt immune the knockback
"You are granted a moment of magical immunity"
okay
So its not the 5 seconds, its just that singular tick or w/e it is
is that supposed to be alot?

We do need dark mode though. Soul hunters with inky looks pcool
It should immune everything but randomly sometimes it only works on the first second, no consistency regarding which mechanics its applied to
(from a player pov)
sorry, forgot you have like a million gold caps on your acc
okay that makes sense
You can soak 3 somewhat consistently
Eat 2 then slightly delay cloak to use the 1s immunity to eat a 3rd
Ehhh, on any high key you'll get one shot p fast
I've tried to make it somewhat consistent, but you just end up dead most of the time or forcing healer to commit smthn
Yea, this part is cringe
I wanna make a blaket statement about cloak, but its too inconsistent
my goat

u boys raided ive gathered flowers and ores
My girlfriend runs world quests every week on her alts and makes like 200k I wanna say from that every week
She has a spreadsheet for it too, shes insane for that
totally havent raided
for 4 hours
and now 4,5 more

i feel your pain fam
inshallah soon
Is this overtime
Introduce her to Stardew Valley
laughing WoW is her stardew valley
Every like 3 week, she gets like 200 seeds or smthn from the herbing
and makes me do them all with her
I've never touched a profession in my life before her 😭
ahhahahahahaah
My alts aren't for my professions, its for her 😭
Next she'll add achievements.
She was having a crisis literally last night because she finally got so many tickets from the darkmoon fair she get that 1k ticket mount finally
and she was like does that mean we're not gonna go to the darkmoon fair anymore
And the other day she got thatamirdrassil mount too
A whole crisis over things we do in WoW together
Get her into Runescape, big gains
lowkey might be a good idea
Just make couple kids
everything will disappear in a flash
full undivided attention achievement
laughing
i joke that our kids are gonna be chinese gold farmers
she is NOT a fan of that
is assas the best rogue spec currently for manaforge omega?
all3 are good
tried sub ST and really losing out to alot of other classes like war / dk
Can post a log in sub chat and see if you're doing stuff wrong
But sub ST is not amazing, sub is mostly a good spec for meeting damage checks and optimizing damage amps
Thats where sub shines
i understand ty 🙁
For reference, this is pure ST 95% percentile players
oh... okay at least this makes me feel a little better
rogues right smack at the bottom F
yeah with adds, and nimble flurry sub shoots up a lot
i see now! so this is where rogues start to shine
Yeah, its not great for pure ST, just very good for damage amps and dmg checks
Keep in mind, boss damage itself is really important
even for loomithar, the execute phase where the moth takes increased damage. cant match other classes
Yeah assa is a bit better for loomithar for boss dam
Heres the boss damage chart for loomithar
do most rogues keep changing spec for each boss?
or stick to 1 spec and just blast the entire raid
Sub/assa rogue players tend to go hand in hand
The early prog rogues will generally play both
And outlaw rogues are just freaks of natures (don't tell them I said that)
Honestly more people would probably play outlaw if you weren't fucking urself over by crafting a one hand sword
Cuz you can flex between sub/assa stats p easy
Don't be fooled too much about the aoe pad xd
But not between sub/outlaw
Wdym we only care about dmg to adds

do you have the link?
I’m struggling to keep up with other DPS in ST in m+ and I don’t understand why. I reread multiple guides on ST rotation but I still get heavily outperformed by other classes.
I also took a look at someone else’s log and compared our DPS on bosses (bosses with no ads) and the difference is staggering. What gives?
Link to what
TO THE SCREEN
Bro the entire class worse than enh on frac icant
sry caps
It's just Warcraft logs lil bro
Its warcraft logs
We do the worst st in game
more or less
ty bro
Give me a log and I'll tell you why
Bad ST unless they pull a pack into boss and then you do a lil ramp
But by default, our st is pretty fucking terrible
Yeah u should be able to out dps most bad players
Spec just doesn’t do great st unless you can get CDs to land in execute
prob makes sense to go assas for 1st boss Plexus Sentinel.
just feel quite sad with my gear 710 ilevel, i'm losing out to wars / dks / mages and my rotation is so much harder :x
So pretty much 90% of the playerbase
but above that u will be gapped even with perfect play
Link a log, you're also probably making a mistake
More people would play outlaw if they didn’t design every important fight to fuck over outlaw
Generally speaking, 95% percentile rogue will beat out 70% most other classes still
how do i log fights?
- outlaw is tuned quite low atm
normally outlaw would be outsimming assa
yeah if keyholder puts it in
Gladly
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Q3m1CgxGpyjB4rJH?fight=last
lmk if the link doesn't work for some reason
and you go outside the instance until the wall drops
ye I've seen someone say that before
you keep netherprism stacks
So u go out after key is put in?
I can't be bothered tho
and then only go back again after the 10 sec
Well thats it i will never be out dpsed by my warlock friend first pull again
gg
i love u
yeah you might lose damage in pugs
if first pull is real soon
What build are we running in key? Bleed build?
bleed
If u are not in like a +11 key then pull will llast plenty long
18 stack is a very big dmg increase
whole class is tuned kinda low
First pull is also somtimes a crazy high % of the dmg u do entire key
can be
but i find sub has cds every pack if you do high enough keys
sin giga consistently good aoe regardless of cds
Yeah but not everypull is as large as first pull of key
ol clearly is tank dps on mass pulls
Yeah i remember in cinderbrew first pull as outlaw was a joke
one of the things that really bothers me about rogue (sub/sin)
is actually a massive strength they have over ol
the fact out of cds what you do doesn't matter much
on st / raid
i like having constant feedback if im doing well, outlaw kinda provides that but it just comes with so many qol issues and points of failure
like the fact i can say ye ill do every x mechanic, im not in cds idgaf
feels off
yeah its just subs highs
are really high
or bring back dust and all in on fully flexible cds
yea but you can literally fully afk on sub for 10s before flag to build up shadowcraft
this is not the case for assa
agreed and its why I hate sub and still like sin
idk man, if they don't fix some shit with rogue for next expac ima try my hand at maining another melee
sv would be 2nd choice but it's so undesirable
probably will look into dk, dh and perhaps warr
id just play mage if rogue ever got fully bricked
Blood thirst warrior
not really played fury in forever, maybe since wod
That makes sense but I compared myself to another rogue with same-ish ilvl. His items were better too but the difference between my and their DPS on ST is staggering still
Steel Warrior
played arms in amirdrassil as an alt tho
its like outlaw kinda
you have no burst really
avatar being a 20% amp on a 90s cd barely counts
sounds like ol with less cringe
kind of rng
considering your regular rotation
procs the hero talents that do damage
It would appear you're missing crimson tempest uptime rupture and garrote
We only do these things in pandemic EXCEPT when we won't be able to refresh it due to downtime
So you just slap it on early and call it a day
Darkest night is your highest priority
I compared to other guys logs in ST and I have better garotte, rupture uptime by the way
Makes sense. But what if I’m energy starved which is apparently normal?
You'll be energy stargved, not enery starved for 20 seconds like shown in the graph above
gz gz
would have rather done ara but no one invited me
t yt
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/WMFHJ2BQvcN3ahjp?fight=17&type=damage-done&source=624&options=2
I compared Prioress Murrpray boss fight btw
Also you deathmarked at the beginningof this fight, and not at the end, so your cds didn't kline up for higher damage
Which isn't a mistake of your own, just how the spec goes
The person you're comapring to also didn't use CT in st which is a mistake
It just tells me when you used deathmark in the fight
Oh
Just says you uesd it at the beginning and not the end
Yea they clearly didn't play optimally but still outperformed me by a huge margin
weird
Thety did get 2 more darkest nights in than you
okay, this is something
I wanna die
Thats rough!
I was in a +6 eco dome for lilly
Did you atleast get it so it's worth it
no
wasted time
abbandoned the key
toxic healer, tank loses aggro, two undergeared dps's
the two kept dying every pull
To be fair, you are in a 6 LOL
low keys must ve miserable now lol
I had a few of those trying to run for certain items its bad
I just want my trinket
run higher keys where people wanna get io
I agree 10s are usually easier
more than being dumb dumb
I wish guilds were better in m+
Like on average yopu'll find better players, but the real trick is just to have high io and get into keys with people farming vaults
Just check tank io and if its reasonable do the key, if not leave go find another
they are but nobody wants to invite
its over if u didnt get 2999 week one
I swapped to tank now I get instant invites to everything, its very nice

Is it correct if i have only 1 shiv charge on fatebound (4pc) on the second deathmark on single target? I feel like i'm doing something wrong
2 on deathmark, 1 on the solo kingsbane
3 bosses is 3x the atro value!
ah, i was using two there aswel
do i use the shiv on the end of second kingsbane?
Yup!
Fractillus dropped prism on M, got it, ahh 😄
speaking of Prism. We macro it with vanish right? And use it during deathmark/cold blood overlap (for edge case)?
yes but with prism you want to vanisdh before DM
So shiv/vanish/DM
okii
during that vanish before deathmark, does it matter if i follow up on an envenom or ambush, depending on combo points?
if you are fatebound, macro with vanish
if you are deathstalker, macor with deathmark
or just use keybind for trinket 
Do you know what i just saw someone doing. you know how netherprism stacks drop on start of m+. if you go outside before the wall drops. the netherprism stacks dont drop.
and you go back in afterwards
and you have 18 stacks
lol

im dumb
on wowanalyzer, for envenom, "dont need to pandemic rupture"
does this mean it would have been better to reapply rupture in that moment instead of using envenom?
hey guys, i'm new on the fascinating rog assassination spec, do you have any tips for a new player ? 🙂
don't forget to apply poisons
Read the guide, check out whispyr's vids about it.
you should (not) reroll4
guides are def. the best start
Biggest tip though, don't overthink things. This spec is chill.
Overthinking things is the enemy.

thx a lot 🙂
The brain is the enemy and I will kill it

!bug
Vanish->Ambush during cooldowns with Darkest Night up has two main benefits:
- Getting more mark uptime by reapplying when it's down
- Consuming Darkest Night then puts you from 3 stacks of the mark down to 2 since the mark is already applied
As of September 13th with the Echoing Reprimand Fix, that second part is broken. Blizzard inadvertantly added a bug where you cannot consume mark stacks while darkest night is active. This will hopefully get resolved quickly as it is quite impactful. Until that time, you might want to consider taking improved garrote in your single target build (instead of 1 point of vicious venoms, or instead of improved poison). You do not have to do this, and if you would like to continue to play without improved garrote, you would simply hold onto your vanish in case you drop the mark. Once the bug is fixed you would go back to vanish->ambush.
should i really target swap on loom? to hit the orbs?
no
well my rl wants me to hit orbs
im just putting a rupture on it
and he says its not enough you should full swap to it
tell him that the ranged dps should wake up and do mechanics for once in their life
instead of killing the boss dmg by letting melee do it
Realistically, if you hitting the tangles is the difference between a kill or not a kill, you should hit the tangles. But additionally, if you're the one thing standing between tangles dying and not dying, something has gone disastrously fucking wrong before that point.
if it was me i'd look at tangle damage from every ranged and show your RL all the ones that aren't swapping
Should I have to hit tangles? Nah cos the ranged are lazy fucks. But am I gonna refuse to hit tangles and wipe repeatedly due to that? Also no.
because if they aren't dying then there is certainly a few ranged that are tunneling boss
Could always employ the strategy I used. Hard swap to tangles for a few pulls, then point aggressively at my tangle numbers and how shit they are regardless.
show logs of tangle damage
nah like even tho i hit it we still fail sometimes with 30% hp
your raid is trolling
yeah i guess
the mage is telling me
ROGUE SHOULD DEAL MORE DAMAGE TO ORBS
lmao
fkng clown
show mage damage
his dealing good tho
i guess thats a she
idk
but yeah arcane mage mentally
Yeah, you have idiots in your raid.
I'm sorry to break the news to you. But they're dumb.
💔
is that tangle damage?
Yup
one of the mages clearly isn't swapping
🙂
Dragon is doing gods work though
good job evoker
This is all wipes
Mage and boomie are slacking 100%
BM hunter should be good at it but I dunno if its one of those... its awkward due to pet pathing/pet movement stuff?
If that demolock was destro tangles would be giga dead
is it my logs? 😭
Lock respecced destro now, IT'S SAVED. Hunter respecced to MM as well
Yup
also check my dps if possible
IT'S THE GOD-DAMN CHICKEN
i guess i learned my rotation ( abit better)
😄
@maiden sierra u killed nexus yet
dragon doing a very good job
no we just had our first pull tho
we shit the bed on demon hunters on wednesday
how many hours into raiding are you now?
we are
uh
6h45
1h45 left

that sounds grim
wtf
like surely you'd hit a point of diminishing returns at some point
where people are just tired/burnt out
well
im already tired

we did this day raid
to basically almost do no progress
i think we've hit p3
3-4 times
bro soul hunters is fucking aids I am really struggling to keep all the bleeds up and do any damage
I am rock bottom damage in my raid
I used to be in a one day 6 hour raid guild it got burned out fast
just keep em up
4hed
kek
I am HARD bottom dps
how hard is hard bottom dps
but maybe execute phase will solve all of my problems
Bleed build yes
ahh I will try that next wee then
no, you're zenith
can you check last pull?
am i still wasting shiv / PRESSING KEYS SLOW? 😄
platform ResidentSleeper
seems fine to me
at 30% crit, do we swap weapon enchants from councils guile to something else?
Just sim it bud.
See what the robot says gives you more numbers.
what orbs
tangles
until your boomie is #1 damage on tangles
everyone else should shut the fuck up
tbh
fuck ass chicken trolling your raid
or eles
for st on fb remains the same, for dung slice m+ talents on ds sims better on othsworn reeeeeeeeee
just pick depending on which gamemode you want to focus on.
the difference is not that huge with oathsworn fuck it
For me I don't give a fuck about m+ so I just itemize for ST
totally agree
minigame for casuals
I just don't enjoy it but I gotta do it for raid purposes.
In my ideal wow world I raidlog
this chicken is gonna make me cry
Chickens are useless i swear
Turn him into chicken nuggets
i dont hit them at all
yeah they are even bad at mashing buttons
idk
Hello there! i have a quick question regarding Assa, i saw on wow head that the stat prio is mastery>Crit, but when checking high rated assas in murlok.io i saw they are doing mastery>versa instead, and i wonder if this is coz they are mainly playing sub so they go mastery>versa, or for mythic+ is just better to go mastery>versa instead of crit?
stats dont matter
people arent bis
they are equipping what they have
there's no intelligence in murlok btw if someone logs out in troll gear or talents it will just show that
Also, high end m+, vers helps for damage reduction
I get that, but still people lean towards one stat or the other, specially with crafted gear and jewelry
and i was just a bit cautious, i dont want to craft and lean towards mastery>versa if it turns out its just an artifact coz they play sub
you should just craft whatever sims highest
if you also play sub, you should probably consider that with your craft
The best advice if you’re trying to avoid artifacts like this is to stop using all the dogass data aggregation pages
I mean, i need to look at somewhere
Yes, sims
Does anyone know if there is a portal at gambit entrace?
like after u put in the key
can u still leave?
yeah, but its hard to sym how you perform best in dungeon, for patchwerk i get that tho
We have dungeonslice for that
well, dungeon slice not always works as intended, so thats why i look at other players, anyway, ill be looking at syms to see what to do, thanks!
for rogues, trust in dungeon slice.
Other classes do their own things.
But we slice
think most classes are fine in slice
I thought some classes preferred like 5 target patchwerk or some nonsense like that.
It’s up to the theorycrafter running the class kinda
But most classes are fine to run in slice
It might not be the most recommended thing but it’ll be aight
Patchwerk is a hard sell for especially assassination, because you’re essentially ignoring all restealth/chain pulls
You could realistically sim patchwerks for like 1/3/5/8/10 target and then compare back and forth and try and splice everything back together in a way that’s coherent
But that’s 1. A lot of effort
- A lot of human interpretation
- Most people frankly have no clue what they’re even looking at or lack the ability to reason and weigh those options objectively in the first place
Oh hey, I'm number 3.
@maiden sierra
So you don’t gotta bend backwards trying to come up with your own shit
are you still alive?
I feel like after 9 hours of raiding I'd have fucking unsubbed 
god thats me
that's not prog
SALADBAR?
😄
I thought we were giga overtime for hall of fame or something
You’re telling me we’re giga overtime on SALADBAR
smh I hate fucking Salad V Warcraft Edition
permanent AoE situation
DSM sucks, but Fatebound loses damage because of AoE until P3
like wtf
no good options
Which fight?
Salad
Salhadar

But there’s no aoe except the platform
And you get a deathmark on the titan on the platform
dragon+salha is two targets
except one of them takes no damage so all it does is waste Fatebound damage
FB on 2 target is fine
For like 20 seconds out of cooldowns, sure, but Fatebound is better 2t
90% of your dragon damage is the amp and that’s single target
wtf is this knockback zone on fractillus, having me yamcha-posing
like as soon as I get to P2.5/P3, I'm top1
Why exactly are you going marathon raid mode again?
full st from 0:00 to 2:10, 2 target cleave with both being important from 2:10 to 2:45, aoe platform until 3:40 ish, important 2 target cleave from 3:40 to 4:25, then full st past 4:55 
to be ahead of another guild we're "competing" against
If I am raiding 9 hours on a sunday I better have <Liquid> under my name
omegelul
I am not even raiding today cause my pc is having issues 
therea are very few exceptions, like some casters where its hard to do a mixed fight style type but those are also rly bad for any estimate thats not pure single target.
Outside of that, the discussion often becomes prefrence instead of actual problems with dungeon slice as a fight style.
But at what cost?
The more you know! I have no clue what the other classes do, other discords are scary places.
you can ask in the class specific discords, and they will tell you their prefered style of evaluation
me /gquitting
if you want to be sneaky, you can just ask if their sim supports fights with add events
as if the answer is yes, dungeon slice is just that ^^
hi guys, can someone help, how i should sim correctly for m+? what should i put
dungeon slice is good for gearing, use that
Normally if I need information quickly I'll just confidently assert something that I know isn't true.
I'll immediately get 40 people typing
It just works.
thats the beauty of class discords ^^
I know atleast havoc has stopped support for dslice
Thankfully I only play rogue at a level where my performance matters so, I can just remain here and hide.
Like u cant even sim it on raidbots 
can we get that bfa talent that made us do more funnel
shuriken combo on subtlety?
yeah that shit was so OP
devs expressed funnel to be too good of a niche
so they won't bring shuriken combo back for subtlety that is
tho we luckily now have it on other classes and assassination, so it seems their funnel is less problematic
isnt Sin funnel bugged right now
Ye
they'll fix it when they rework rogue again for midnight
In m+ you still benefit from funnel but in raid build its fucked
we don't know if they rework rogue outside of outlaw
which was the only spec name dropped in the interview
can we just get rid of one or two sub CD buttons TIA
issue is the spec had no aoe
it was litterally all ur multitarget power is funnel
subtlety had clear trade offs, which other funnel specs don't have
tho thats on blizz to figure out
i prefered having niches more split between specs, think most are now shared
like all 3 rogue specs now have their own verison of BF
sub doesn't function without flurry i don't think
The problem is that it doesnt "function" because every spec has everything
aoe is even with it a interessting mix
I like how it ended up as the sub rogue
but from other class's pov it's unfair
it sealed outlaw's fate
because dotting multiple targets is done to a higher extend compared on assassiantion, which is basically the "dot centered" one
but like why does sub spread rupture outside of stealth easier 
would be cool if they got rid of spatter but then that breaks a lot of other things for sin
because dance is our stealth
stealth is fairly diffrent integrated between rogue specs
real question is why did sub rurpture do mor ethan sins xd
and why does outlaw do the whole shadow dance thing better than sub
ican't man
is this even still true. i know it was omega true in DF
idk about now with sang
Hello everyone, I have a bug, caustic spatter doesn't apply on my target after I garrote and rupture it, I tried to remoke gear, change talent, switch to sub, outlaw, then go back to assassination, closed and reopen the game, but caustic spatter doesn't work anymore, anyone knows what I could do ?
Do you have deadly poison active
!causticbug
Caustic is not bugged. The Green Puddle on the ground is Poison Bomb, not Caustic Spatter. You are either:
- Not using Deadly/Amplifying poison (or its not applied to your target)
- Not using Rupture on your target
- Not using Mutilate/Ambush if the above two are applied
And are you using mutilate/ambush to apply it
😆 daaaaaamn, deadly poison was not on my weapon hahaha, it's such a fail on me hahaha
thanks for answer
nah man i got mind controlled through cheat death soo many times
ditching it for ellusiveness
just dont get hit 4head
i wouldnt
it can still be worth it
for example in amp
you can go really low in amp
currently progging Araz MM. Why do some people wait 20sec before using CDs at pull ?
So it lines up with adds
Also my CD always come back during pillar intermission but it feels weird. Either i send on pillar but i dont have Deathmark. Or i can use KB and hold DM and its coming back in time for amp
i was never good at dodging my fathers beatings
doesnt it imply u dont go soaking first ?
Unsure
You could still soak first and do but I’d ask to go second probably
Holding also lines up for first amp
im always soaking. I'll try to double shadowstep ig
