Was asking myself the same question, cause APL uses with DM

knotty vapor
#

how often do you guys find the fatebound cd bug happens?

thorn thorn
#

@fallow canopy xla

balmy condor

#

no, just a bunch of toys:

#

#showtooltip Sprint
/use [nostealth] Prismatic Bauble
/use [nostealth] Blazing Shadowflame Cinder
/use [nostealth] Explosive Victory
/use [nostealth] Etheric Victory
/use [nostealth] Guise of the Phase Diver
/use [nostealth] Royal Visage
/cast Sprint

# balmy condor You can just vanish there

I mean APL is using on DM. It's possible to use on 3 min and skip it on the 1:37. You wrote "you can macro it to Vanish instead and treat it as a 3 min cooldown instead for a slight DPS gain". Whats "slight"? We did 5:08 on Frac Mythic and i could get in 4 DMs. With the new dmg buff this week and better gear i prob only get 3 DMs in. So its worth to use it on 3 min and skip the 2nd DM?

balmy condor
#

Oh I didn’t see that it’s 1:30

#

Link the sim, it definitely shouldn’t be casting there

balmy condor
#

It’s 0.6% better to cast on every other deathmark when you have vanish available

#

So it’s a bit baffling that it isn’t doing that

barren forge
balmy condor
#

Yeah I have no clue why it’s casting there I’m gonna be honest

spice surge
#

Has to be the !trinket.2/1.cooldown.ready somehow getting triggered

#

Despite it using a passive

balmy condor
#

Yeah that’s my guess too

#

Maybe that other trinket is being counted as a cooldown for some reason

#

I’m on mobile so I can’t test a different trinket

#

But that is insanely strange

barren forge
#

I can change the trinket and run it again

balmy condor
#

Yeah if you can

#

The logic seems fine for prism

barren forge
#

So just switch with a lily for prism?

balmy condor
#

No

#

The other trinket

barren forge
#

ah

balmy condor
#

Ideally some other passive like a pacemaker or whatever

balmy condor
#

wtf lmao

#

That’s so fucked

barren forge
#

same with sack of terror

unreal ledge
#

!macros

balmy condor
#

Will have to go in and add an extra check to check if they have a cooldown AND aren’t ready

#

Very annoying

thorn thorn

#

question i just got the netherprism do i hit it on ever deathmark or let it build to 18stack then hit it?

balmy condor
#

Deathstalker ever dm, fatebound on every other

!bug

prisma monolithBOT

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.

balmy condor
#

That’s an old command

#

Yikes

#

Put that on my todo list as well

barren forge
lament ridge
#

i was just trying to figure out the bugs for sin that are making them sad

#

is that not accurate

balmy condor
#

You can basically ignore everything except fatebound 4pc and singular focus not working with caustic

thorn thorn
balmy condor
#

Errrrr

#

Still accurate technically

runic hinge
#

:3

balmy condor
#

No

runic hinge
long hawk
#

how big of a gain is it applying garrotes to all the bosses in soul hunters?

thorn thorn
#

I couldnt resist

balmy condor
#

Probably should even garrote other targets honestly

long hawk
#

assuming you meant shouldnt? and cool i figured, i garrote in passing like when running around

balmy condor
#

Yes, shouldn’t

long hawk
#

another question, before cds, is it better to vanish to get dots around or do some set up first?

lavish swan
#

Do you guys run Crimson temp in raid at all?

main bridge
#

Yes

#

Soul hunters is one of the fights

ocean ore
#

guys im seeing some logs, rogues are using prism with all death marks? or we hold for vanish?

tropic jewel
#

This is just awefull that they still havnt fixed rogue for over 20 days noe

main bridge
ocean ore

#

On lorrgs you can easily see when they use their cooldowns too

main bridge

#

Cannot see

ocean ore
#

i will try to up it again

oak tangle
#

you got the fb bug

#

and yolo sent a deathmark

ocean ore
ocean ore
oak tangle
#

at about 1 min

#

ye

#

idk if it's a gain or not, cause more casts, but it doesn't look right for sure

ocean ore
#

theres any critical mistake in rotation?

#

that i can improve

main bridge
#

Yeah the ones mentioned above are important

#

If you get the bug you wait for cold blood and you don’t use deathmark by itself

ocean ore
#

thats the reason so i get so low at dmg?

oak tangle
#

we ramp inside our cds, if you send them desynced, of course

main bridge
#

Yeah if you wanna parse you need your cooldowns to be perfect and at the right time

ocean ore
#

we need to pooling before send cds?

#

i feel my solo kbs strugling

oak tangle
#

only really the naked kingsbane, but i looked at your energy and stuff it seemed ok

#

you also did well on cp, no overcaps, except for seal fate

ocean ore
#

i will try to focus more with the cds

oak tangle
#

im a little puzzled as to how you didn't overcap with deal fate at all, but did with seal fate, but either of those are fine to overcap on

ocean ore
oak tangle
#

but like, just by getting seal fate, and overcapping, deal would have to as well is what i'd expect, and you get deal when you get seal, lol

#

unless it applies deal first in the logs, 🤷‍♂️

#

it implies you never mutilated at 4 cp, or if you did you did not crit

#

so i guess, a question, are you making sure to finisher at 5+

#

@balmy condor are you able to shed some light on this?

ocean ore
#

some times i use garrote to generate just 1 cb

#

and its cost less

tranquil bough
#

why do sims tell me to use haste vers rings kekw

ocean ore
#

but only when its about to ent

#

1-2 sec more then pandemic

main bridge
#

we use dungeon slice

oak tangle
#

what's confusing?

#

robit says use stat

tranquil bough
#

wdym you use dongeon slice

#

isnt it like

#

not accurate at all

marble dawn
#

it’s confusing cause his damage doubles when there’s two boss 🤡

tranquil bough
#

kekkkwwww

coral ibex
#

it is exclusively accurate for rogue

#

this is not a meme

tranquil bough
#

ok good to know ig

runic hinge
#

The tc’s do a lot of work on Dslice for rogue

oak tangle
#

sin kinda gimped if you couldnt apply sudden demise

coral ibex
#

tbf if there ever was a triple patchwerk fight in the game rn we probably would do like 11m dps or something over 3 minutes

tranquil bough
#

🥶

balmy condor
#

What’s the question

oak tangle
#

over cap on seal fate, but not deal fate, does logs account for deal first? or is brother not using mut at 4 cp

balmy condor
#

Yeah you should still Mut on 4

#

Logs show deal fate separately

oak tangle
#

trying to work out why deal is not over capping

balmy condor
#

Deal triggers first I think because of spaghetti

oak tangle
#

kk that'll be it then

#

silk sundial
#

if i shadowstep the knockback on fractillus, do I still break the wall?

cunning needle
#

make sure you step after you get knocked though

oak tangle
#

lol

balmy condor
#

Ive stepped the knock a bunch of times and the walls still break idk

coral ibex
#

timestamp

#

yes

#

i do this every time

silk sundial
#

Thank you

balmy condor
#

I have to step to get to my soak

silk sundial
#

yeah I'm breaking on blue, red or green and my soak spot is front of star. No way i can make the run without step

coral ibex
#

have you mentioned this to your raid lead

#

they can fix this with the liquid or NS assignment order

#

i'm rarely assigned to the left bc my spread spot is front right

silk sundial
#

I was assigned blue, they were star. Then they swapped to blue and put me on star.

coral ibex
#

it prefers to assign L->R in this order

balmy condor
#

No wonder your parses are so good nooj

#

Sandbagger

#

Your guild changing the strat for you

coral ibex
#

it was actually the dh further right of me

#

who complained

balmy condor
#

Yeah good cope

coral ibex
#

(after i whispered him about how it was ass to spread right after breaking left)

#

you have to spread your tendrils to make it look like everyone wants to cater to melee

#

and then suddenly

balmy condor
#

You just think you’re better than me cause I don’t flip heads for 3 minutes

#

Is that what it is

coral ibex
#

"ooh im whispyr, i have a cool job and call redditors monkeys, im mad about coin flips"

runic hinge
#

I’ll flip you on your head for 3 minutes

coral ibex
#

it also just looks sick to shadowstep the knockback

#

its such a smooth movement

@balmy condor do you think they will rework rogue in midnight? Do you hope they rework rogue?

Mirror mirror on the wall will they rework rogue at all

The spec trees are fine, the class tree is a little bit fucked

Biggest thing I’d want to see is hero talent reworks

nova kelp
#

Sometimes I wonder if we're a small crew because we like the niche of we've just become a small crew that is convinced it's fine by virtue of being all that's left.

#

I tell you what though. Once upon a time you couldn't get a raid spot as a rogue cos every guild already had 5

#

There's this idea these days that it was originally seen as a "PvP class" and that stuck. That wasn't the case in the early days. That came about at like mop

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

#

I love rogue. But there are some aspects of our baseline that I think remain problematic for the sake of tradition. And we refuse to identify it because we make the excuse to rationalise it

cunning needle

our baseline is fucking garbage

A lot of "rogues" do

they're basically ranged assassination but with better mobility, better defensives, better utility, a group buff, better boss damage, the same prio/funnel

Yo raiders, how do you handle the Cds on plexus ?? Feel like my KB windows are always during transition. Do you hold ? Or just send eaven if you can't hit during all the window ?

Haha

Ye mine always was meh aswell

I just send it

I guess its the way then

Because you can only send or just not use it at all imo

Else you would delay dm

Or desync

Maybe on add but fells like troll a bit haha

Top lorgs io send the KB with the 4p bug

Si they have a full Kb window

# opal dagger I heard someone talking about sims of every trinket and lily being better than p...

lily can beat prism on super short fights too, they compete it's not like one trinket always wins everywhere. the answer is simming the fight length you're facing - in my case if they're even (which they are in my sims atm) I prefer one or the other based on other factors like on salhadar while the boss dmg amp matters a lot I want damage on the titan so I run lily to have a trinket to use there. tl;dr sim reality and use your brain

#

keep in mind any downtime and deaths both affect prism stacks negatively while damage amps favour prism too

Non mythic players do you swap builds between trashmobs/single target bosses/cleave bosses/council or just run with 1 or 2? For example fatebound for ST and a variation of deathstalker for the rest?

no, you rupture 5 targets for scent and maintain that

you can go ham on the garrote cleave during IC tho

I see, i saw a dalaran gaming guide that says that its worth to spread for dmg and energy regen, should i stop watching them guides?

but like mostly heroic logs is about kill time which is kinda useless to look at then

lyric vale
#

Hmmm

I didn't even realize it was a heroic log xd

yeah heroic is kinda cooked

We did get hunties to 9% tho

#

so it should fall over today

#

and then on to the real wall

velvet cairn
#

@lyric vale here is a good example of killtimes

severe meadow
#

is that heroic?

velvet cairn
#

this is vexie last raid. i got same gear and no diff in dmg buff. But i did a lot more damage since it died faster

severe meadow
#

o xd

velvet cairn
severe meadow
#

I was like wtf, we killed ours in 2:55

velvet cairn
#

just tried to find some log to show a example

severe meadow
#

Didn't read the ilvl

#

#

yeah if something dies in 3:30 and you're DS Assa, it suuuucks

grim jay
#

Killtime always is more about how CDs line up

#

Fast never is automatically better

velvet cairn
#

eg this is mugzee hc last season. I got my 2nd deathmark through on 98 parse but on the 100 log i also got the dry shiv through just as he died which means a better lineup in terms of killtime with cds @lyric vale

lyric vale
#

even tho i check somelogs

main bridge
#

is that unexpected?

lyric vale
#

its like im doing same

velvet cairn
#

thats the same as others

#

this is a loom 97 parse when i did it

#

natruall curves on that bad boy

#

also ignore it was a shit kill from guild

#

but this is the profile of assa, ur do big dam in cds and a bit small dam in just kb window

#

rest is just trying to do damage and be ready for next window of damage

lyric vale
#

aight

#

almost noticed it

#

i just need to play my nutrall play

#

and dont mind otherthing

#

cuz i cant do shit for kill time

velvet cairn
#

thats true. But i can tell you in the future when fractilus dies at 3min and like 20 sec you will get the "best" log

#

since u can send a cd window in execute with spymasters

#

which means rest of the log depends on coins and ambush procs and general knowledge

lyric vale
velvet cairn
#

but this is a sublog and im not good at sub. but you get the point im sure

#

just imgaine the last spike being higher and more spikey

lyric vale
#

true

#

maybe its state>??

#

cuz i get energy drained in kb

velvet cairn
#

we all do, its a small minmax to pool before

#

but the only thing you kinda have to do is sim ur guy and if u want a concret focus on stats i would say

#

mastery = crit - hast - vers

#

note that fatebound sims good with much crit

#

thats also why antenna is for instance eg 2% in fatebound but only 1% in deathstalker

#

(sample numbers not real)

lyric vale
#

ehm ehm im at 14k crit and 20k mastery

#

but i have antenna

velvet cairn
#

then it sounds wonderful

lyric vale
#

yeah antenna make up for it and versa can carry other things

velvet cairn
#

i can maybe find a example of pooling for kb for you give me a sec

coral ibex
#

you only ever pool before non-dm kb

#

with 5+ cp stored

#

and you pool for like 3-5 sec

velvet cairn
#

here is a example kinda i will look after more

sharp wigeon
#

Hi, is assa still considered as one of the harder specs to play in M+ in 11.2?

humble verge
#

harder idk

#

arcane is up there

velvet cairn
#

i get 5 cp at the "low" curve then i wait a bit for kb

velvet cairn
#

here is a even better example of pooling before KB

#

then during kb it natrually goes down

lyric vale
#

oh

#

so 5s pooling before kb is good but i should store 5cp for it

#

and also reappy garrot raptrue right?

velvet cairn
#

yeah u want to spend to get envenom debuff b4 KB

#

or u preferly reapply bleeds when its nearing

grim jay
#

Its a shadow of its former self

humble verge
#

2 wipes on first boss somehow still manage to time this on my alt rogue xd

velvet cairn
#

i think in the top graph at the peak i do a rupture into mutilate to a envenon then into kingsbane

humble verge
lyric vale
#

aight ty sophie

#

i wil try and mess around more

velvet cairn
#

no worries glad to help

#

as long u maxamize damage in KB and DM KB u will do just fine

coral ibex
#

rupturing before kb is only correct if it’s in pandemic

velvet cairn
#

and maintain bleeds ofc

coral ibex
#

don’t refresh early

lyric vale
#

oki

cold scroll
#

Do you restore bleeds when it reaches pandemic or you let it go off then reload? (not talking about improved garrote)

coral ibex

Do we land betwen to the 2 Webs or one the Outside?

Okay ! 🙂 Awesome. i was kinda scared to test it and die horriblie when just trying to carry out fast 😄

You can go into heroic and test the same theory

I'm excited for the following Patch 5.60. With the upcoming re-encounter with Anduin the Re-re-shadowed, I believe rogue will be meta for progression. The spell "Archmage Arugal" will be pivotal to the raid tier success. Without this, the players will be forced to use sub-optimal spells like "Kafrizzle" and "Pearly Gates". This is not great as Anduin the Re-re-shadowed has resistance to light and fire based attacks.

Getting the wall break assignment right when your cds are up in execute is depressing

#

just after the break hits

#

and not lose uptime

hot jay
#

Isn't that inciting chaos in your raid to sprint step all the way back to the boss during the purple circles

#

Idk

#

I didn't wanna grief

zealous moth
#

i mean you have what like

hot jay
#

It was our first kill or w/e

zealous moth
#

3-4 seconds before the circles pop?

#

you just cancel the knocback and run away from the safe lane

#

was it mythic?

hot jay
#

That's the part I'm still confused on i guess

zealous moth
#

i haven't had an issue doing that in H so far

hot jay
#

Wdym cancel the knock on a break

#

I thought you had to let it happen

#

Or the break doesn't work

zealous moth
#

im pretty sure after the projectile hits it doesn't matter if you hit the wall

#

unless that fight is an absolute joke and i've been griefing wall breaks for 3 weeks

hot jay
#

I wouldn't know, but I'll have to look into it for reclear

zealous moth
#

for sure

onyx coyote
#

How do you not get thrown back?

hot jay
#

Theres a projectile? My brain is bricked on that fight

zealous moth
#

i mean, worst case scenario you cause a wipe

hot jay
#

I thought you were essentially the projectile that is breaking the wall

onyx coyote
#

my dps is lower then i like on fractilluus cause of all the down time from wall breking.

zealous moth
#

not so worst case you just dont break your walls and nothing happens

coral ibex
#

just step during the knock back

#

you don’t have to hit the wall

deep gyro
#

I can guarantee it works to step

zealous moth
deep gyro
#

Before u hit wall

coral ibex
#

i do it every time

onyx coyote
#

oh cool ty

hot jay
#

I guess I've been clueless about this boss then

deep gyro
#

In fact if u do it u can actually get knock back slightly back from boss during step

hot jay
#

Whatever it literally died in a handful of pulls after our forgeweaver kill

#

It's a heroic boss

zealous moth
#

it also works for wall placements, those knock you bat a bit and cause a sec of downtime

#

if you want to optimize, just do the same

deep gyro
#

Optimizing the patchwerk fight letsgo

zealous moth
#

i mean

#

if you are shadowstepping on wall breaks you are optimizing

deep gyro
#

I was just sucking at every fight i don’t even know how to get better at each 🙁

zealous moth
#

don't know what to tell ya

coral ibex
#

wall placements shouldn’t knock you out of melee

hot jay
#

Of course forgeweaver dies on my worst pull after I felt like I had every timing downloaded into my brain for sub

coral ibex
#

his hitbox is enormous

deep gyro
#

I didnt mean anything bad.

just stand closer to the front

i may be standing too far back

In the new bleed build i ran into some issues in ara kara. We were chain pulling the entire backportion and i ran out of vanishes and thistle tea. Is there anyway to regain dps during that if your out of both? It seemed to be easier to in hybrid.

zealous moth
#

!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.
coral ibex
#

you can’t run out of energy with 5 ruptures out

#

it’s impossible

#

you have infinite energy in aoe

zealous moth
#

^

#

specially if you snipe ruptures

#

btw, what pull is the backportion?

#

the third big spider before first boss?

frank vector
#

2 min deathmark is worse than fdks 45 sec reapers mark?

onyx coyote
#

From the door with the lady after thespirder boss all the waya t final boss.

zealous moth
#

i love that you say spider boss

#

bc it's just all spiders lmao

#

but yeah, i know where you mean

#

just after the second boss

#

yeah, like the copy paste says, if you´re applying 5 ruptures and hitting your caustic target you just don't run out of energy

onyx coyote
#

k ty

zealous moth
#

plus that helps dps bc of scent of blood

#

5 ruptures i'd say almost prio number 1 in keys

Guys, it's a giga loss if I don't have envenom up before burst? Sometimes I'm rly low on energy and build cp's to envenom to then burst takes too long.

zealous moth
frank vector
#

the answer is is yes. death mark is worse than a 45sec cd

normal mist
#

Damn

#

By what metrics

zealous moth
#

but fr, pool energy before going into cds

#

DM helps with energy regen a lot, but try to have ~150 energy up

cyan dew
main bridge
#

If there are adds you should have the most energy

zealous moth
#

rupture snipe can help there

coral ibex
#

i’ll write that down

zealous moth
#

and also caustic cleave off of adds will also help with energy

severe meadow
#

Fixes or bread daggers, I mean come on

zealous moth
#

if you have no energy during cds you'll lose a bunch of damage bc you don't really want to just be autoing during kingsbane

frank vector
#

why death mark cant be perhaps 1 min? 45 sec is alot to ask

zealous moth
#

and being able to cleave a kingsbane + envenoms will be much better than just spamming FoK on adds

main bridge
severe meadow
#

In case you thought we did

zealous moth
#

but yeah, you should be rupturing the (phaseblades? whichever is that has the most health) to help with energy regen

you don’t need stealth for fract

That's why i always stealth as soon as i'm up

I have a very weird question...if u know please help.... so i have a mythic 707 ring...and have crafted earthen craftmans ring @720....now if i craft another earthen craftmans ring @720...will the upgrades to the 707 ring be free(till 720)? or im chucked either way and have to spend 135 crests to upgrade both those rings...the reason i ask is cause since 2 rings have the same name...so it might not register i have 2 different rings...and consider it as only 1 ring at 720...so i still might need to upgrade my mythic track ring to 723 with another 75 crests...

oak tangle
#

but once you have 2 720 rings, you can upgrade to 720 at no cost on a myth track item

twin hull
twin hull
oak tangle
#

it's not the names that count it's the number, you have 2 have 2 rings, the same as 2 trinkets, before you get the cost reduction

#

it doesn't work with unique equipeed items because you can't equip them at once, but crafted rings arent unique equipped

twin hull
oak tangle

unique equipped is the reason

twin hull

well 60 gilded, but yeah

they are not hard

specially if you can duo with someone

#

i did 11s week 1 with my healer

#

and they take like 15 min, 10 if it's a short one

#

way more chill than doing keys with randoms

marsh fjord
#

Yeah. but time is not relevant is it? if its mandatory and you NEED to do them you will stay in them for hours if thats needed

zealous moth
#

honestly i just did 8 for vault and then spammed keys

#

but yeah, i see what you mean

marsh fjord
#

People always complained like, WE NEED to do torghast its better if it was just for cosmectics only. and then delves do the actually the same thing, only the impact is less

#

One gave legendaries

#

other one gives tier set (chance)

zealous moth
#

i never got to do thorgast

tho i did it when i was bored clearing sl content

marsh fjord

Well people complained that you had to do them for power.

and it looked like a pain in the ass

marsh fjord

because it gave legendaries

I prefer torghast over delves

the gear system was the same, right?

its because of brann

and how shit he is

YES

#

he is useless

#

as dps he was under my healer

#

i mean yeah, it was a disc priest but still

marsh fjord
#

Not even that. i assign him as my tank and he just pulls the entire fucking delve for me

zealous moth
#

"dps" 20k dps

#

as tank he just gets aggro and stands in shit and keeps adds in pools and fire

marsh fjord
#

Yeah and as a rogue he stands in puddles and i cant even hit him.

zealous moth

as healer i literally outheal him with flask

marsh fjord

because i die if i do

tho i gotta say

the mini flarendos he had?

solemn laurel
#

any assass players that can help with why my damage is what it is on our M prog

red schooner
#

Post a log and someone can have a look at it

solemn laurel
#

is it my stats, boss uptime, casts, cds at wrong times?

red schooner
#

first thing I saw, not the worst thing but, definitely a waste of a craft.

#

Second thing - Your three minut cooldowns were sent at 4 minutes

main bridge
#

oh no

red schooner
#

You held for a full minute

#

Don't do that.

red schooner
#

You wasted 66% of a deathmark.

solemn laurel
#

ooh, waiting for intermission

red schooner
#

Yeah, no, it ain't worth holding for a full minute.

zealous moth
#

i mean that's a big fat dps loss right there

red schooner
#

A full minute is madness

#

Additionally there was no second shiv during the 4 minute cooldown set.

#

But your kill was 6:35 right? You held for a minute, you outright lost a deathmark usage by doing that.

zealous moth
#

that's 4 deathmarks

#

if the intermission lines up with your cds cool

#

or you can hold them for like 10 seconds

#

but not an entire minute

red schooner
#

And then your kingsbane after that is sent a minute later and your shiv timings are wack because you missed the second shiv in your 4 minute cooldowns

#

And then you sent cooldowns at 5 minutes due to the bug and held kingsbane for another minute which I think comes out at a loss overall?

red schooner
#

But yeah, rotation seems good, but holding for a full minute is HOLY

solemn laurel
red schooner
zealous moth
#

isn't that just at the start tho?

red schooner
#

Nope

#

It can happen mid fight

zealous moth
#

can it proc again later?

#

what

#

the fuck

#

BLIZZARD

red schooner
#

I've not seen the 'cooldown remains at 2 minutes' thing happen mid fight

#

But I've definitely had cooldowns line up and then desync again midfight

solemn laurel
#

on plexus, do you guys send your kingsbane at his 100% energy if you have it up

red schooner
#

But your rotation looks fine.

#

Just holding for a full minute fucked you out of a cooldown usage

zealous moth
#

just seeing you casted 4 deathmarks

#

you missed on 2

#

that's rough

red schooner
#

So yeah, that's the main thing to look at

zealous moth
#

i thought he had missed 1

solemn laurel
#

hmm

zealous moth
#

i love how wow analyzer says you casted 1 thistle tea

solemn laurel
zealous moth
#

like yeah, sure lmao

red schooner
#

I'd rather get the additional kingsbane out

#

You can get the kingsbane and a few cold blood envenoms versus... not

zealous moth
#

also, 2 vanish casts on a 6 minute fight

#

yeah, looks like you just need to line your big cds better

#

don't waste them waiting for a dmg amp phase

solemn laurel
#

do i vanish for death marks or kingsbanes

red schooner
zealous moth
#

wait

solemn laurel
#

and vanish only affects evenom right

zealous moth
#

what am i saying

#

it doesn't line up bc of 4set

#

ignore me

zealous moth
#

and it's supposed to stack with double jeopardy, saw a dude a while back talking about it

solemn laurel
#

i mean the crit from it applies to envenom

zealous moth
#

so if you vanish > Deathmark it flips 3 coins

#

if not, then a dude here lied to me

marsh ferry
#

We don't play master assassin in raid, so no crit from vanish

zealous moth
#

what crit

hexed pumice
#

btw do we havy any use of evasion in raid, when running FB? cuz the DS talent tree had the evasion thingy also reducing 20% dmg or smh, but now its gone and almost everything is a magic spell there right?

solemn laurel
#

so am i still vanishing into kingsbane or deathmark?

#

after first opener burst

#

or am i doing this sht wrong

marsh ferry
#

you can vanish before DM, KB, first CB envenom, or second CB envenom

#

vanish doesn't care
