Say you and someone else roll 100 on an item, the game does a second roll but doesn't tell you the results and awards it to whoever wins.

hmmm

#

Last info I got is to use prism with Vanish, is it still the case?

iron carbon
#

Or it's neutral to use every DM?

marsh fjord
#

Why wouldnt it be?

iron carbon
#

Cuz sim doesn't do that

balmy condor
#

it's slightly better with vanish

iron carbon
#

Just wanted to know if something changed ^^

balmy condor
#

sims are whack but I can't be fucked updating it, it's so minor

gonna need basically a full rewrite anyway

so I just could not give a shit about 0.2%

marsh fjord

#

Sure, I understand

marsh fjord
#

Following the sim is not feasable to many variations.

iron carbon
#

Ikr, but sim follow some rules

#

And with Whispyr explanation, I understand why rules weren't update for prism

How does one parse well on Mythic Araz. My logs are dogcrap on that fight. CDS with adds up at the end?

coral ibex
#

be in a guild that doesnt drop adds behind the pools

frozen iris
#

well nvm then lol

coral ibex
#

the faster your raid blows up the adds, the less cleave you get to do and your parse will be lower

#

and if they get dropped behind its gg

#

they rarely last long enough to sit under the boss for caustic

amen

frozen iris
#

last kill wasnt great but i have a purple parse

frozen iris
#

My fract kills are all garbage and when we down soul hunters i wont even look.

humble verge
#

im glad i killed frac early

#

i have 5 frac kills

#

none over 5m

#

dps

analog field
#

Araz now very difficult to parse especially without mythic prism. Adds in the last phase and in Intermission don't count. I somehow had 6.7 m DPS on details and 6.05 on logs

balmy condor
#

yeh

humble verge
#

did they not remove some damage too

#

man

balmy condor
#

the adds spawn faster and faster

humble verge
#

im glad i got this

balmy condor
#

so longer kills could pad way harder

humble verge
#

even tho its not 99

#

but

balmy condor
#

before the patch, the best strat to parse on araz was technically to just get as much CC as humanly possible

#

and let the adds spawn over and over and over

#

and essentially just minclear the boss at the last moment

#

to get the maximum pad

#

you could easily get like 1.5-2mil dps just from the last phase

#

shit was silly

humble verge
#

that basically what i did when i parsed that

#

i think i went in like

#

6

#

and ended on almost 7,4

#

i just fins this funny

balmy condor
#

the top log from 10.2 gets a little over 2mil dps from the now removed damage

#

actual insanity

humble verge
#

i hope we can kill dimmy on sunday

#

if not imma go eat some cardboard fr fr

iron carbon
#

Can't outparse my subs runs

frozen iris
#

Alot of our kills i end up dying early. Last loomithar. Had a web dropped on top of me and stunned. Then could not shadow step out and died.

coral ibex
#

loom you need to get 2 dm's during the amp

#

and also just roll heads for 3 minutes straight

humble verge
#

i feel loom is the easiest to parse

#

cause of the amp

solar wyvern
#

I played assa on reclear and all but 1 of 4 of our saladbar pulls i was almost 9m dps at 3% boss with cdr bug and ofc the one we kill on i dont get cdr bug smhmyhesd

Please tell me its a viable boss damage build for.m+ (fantasy land)

#

viable boss damage build: reroll frost DK

thorn thorn
#

Its called we buff spatter to 80% and play cleave every dungeon

solar wyvern
#

on goodness they should just buff the DS tier to make shiv 15 seconds and increase the % gain

thorn thorn
#

Yea, its called work for blizzard and convince them to buff spatter

solar wyvern
#

make it competitive

thorn thorn
#

Very true

static glacier
#

on the last dm spattering onto p3 adds

balmy condor
#

ye

static glacier
#

you have alpha now ye? thoughts on ct dot spread in raid scenarios? It seems too slow but if the dots actually do really notable dps there could be demise aoe snipe shit?

#

idk though you'd want add spawn cadence like araz with only a few at a time after eachother

#

(im like 100% sure its just spatter n forget)

narrow cave
# iron carbon The only boss I struggle is Loom, idk why

I wish I could say the same cuz honestly I feel stupid when I raid. I can noooooot figure out my ST rotation. I do more damage to bosses with my M+ AOE spec than I do with my ST rotation and struggle to go over 3m.

Anybody feel generous enough to give me some pointers? I'll post my logs, im the only rogue in the raid.

because thats beyond weird

humble verge
narrow cave
#

I promise, my ST spec is worse - I've been trying to learn this spec since the drop of S3 and cant improve. Ive tried diff builds, rotations, and keep upgrading ghear cuz I think my guild pitties me lol idk why else theyd keep carrying me through

thorn thorn
#

And if you are going to play the M+ build in raw ST for whatever reason

#

Please do not get 35% uptime on CT

unborn rain
#

lol

normal mist
#

there's 1 rotation

#

and 2 (3) builds in raid

narrow cave
#

Thats what I mean - in M+ Im fine, I can pull 10-17 mil in packs and 2-3 on bosses but in raid Im dead last every single week

normal mist
#

what does m+ has to do with this

#

pressing CT and applying spatter isnt hard either

narrow cave
#

nothing, I think theyre confused cuz I used my m+ build in raid cuz I do better with it

oh ok cool cool

narrow cave
#

Yes I did the macros for shiv and other CDs and then forget to use shiv apparently although I didnt realize I was forgetting that bad

dense cedar
#

i kinda don't get this specific issue at all

#

the rotational differences are almost non-existent for M+ Bleed ST vs Raid ST

tawdry halo
#

I think a genuinely good way to to do this would be to use the recommeded raid ST build

dense cedar
#

If anything Deathstalker is more work

tawdry halo
#

and hit some dummies

#

and then maybe come back to us and we can tell you where the mistakes are

normal mist
#

45 seconds later you'll cast KB and then shiv at the last 8 seconds before KB ends. Cast finishers at 5 or more CPS and repeat the big opener // solo KB

tawdry halo
#

but using the m+ build is weird because no kingsbane, you have CT, and the CDs are 2mins instead of 1min30

thorn thorn
#

Pull up the guide on either a second monitor or your phone and have the rotation infront of your eyes

#

And just practice on the dummies

#

Until you get the muscle memory

narrow cave
thorn thorn
#

Cuz thats what you really need is just the practice with it

coral ibex
#

fatebound is meta on all bosses except soulbinder and soul hunters

#

narrow cave
#

Good to know

normal mist
#

Always the Soul

thorn thorn
#

Aint no shame in practicing on the dummies

#

thats what they exist for

tawdry halo
#

yeah dummy practice is genuinely incredible

coral ibex
#

as long as you make sure every single set of cds is shiv>dm>kb>refresh shiv as soon as the effect expires

narrow cave
coral ibex
#

you NEVER rupture with cold blood up

#

and you pool for 5s before a non-dm kb

thorn thorn
#

Just sit there and practice the ST opener on the dummies until you get it right

coral ibex
#

there's not much else to do

thorn thorn
#

Once your opener is right the rest can be patched up

coral ibex
#

you just spam envenoms and upkeep rupture/garrote

thorn thorn
#

But a terrible opener is gonna nuke the overall of basically any spec

#

Especially so if the spec has big peaks

narrow cave
normal mist
#

yes

thorn thorn
#

I dont have the % to support this statement off rip but for now you just need to know that for most specs, a good portion of your overall damage is going to come from your opener/cd windows

desert crest
#

Terrible opener normally also means that the person will mess up the next cooldown set

thorn thorn
#

This applies to basically any spec that has a peak

humble verge
#

i feel like, a lot of classes do have important openers tho?

tawdry halo
#

Assa is a CD focused spec

thorn thorn
#

But the bigger their cd window peak is, the more you will notice it

coral ibex
narrow cave
coral ibex
#

your cd sequences matter a lot

tawdry halo
#

not as concentrated as SUb but so much of your damage is the deathmark window

coral ibex
#

they are most of your damage

thorn thorn
#

Sin will really notice a terrible opener or cd window

#

Since it has very big peaks

desert crest
#

Might not be ur fault

narrow cave
normal mist
#

its a bug

desert crest
#

No no there is a bug where sometimes u will get 2 min deathmark and 1 min kingsbane instead of 1:30 and 45 sec

normal mist
#

so IF you do the opener correctly you might proc the bug

thorn thorn
#

If you look at a specs damage profile in WCL, ele shaman in this case, they have massive peaks between ascendance uses

desert crest
#

And sometimes you even get 1 min deathmark and 30 sec kingsbane

thorn thorn
#

And they do basically nothing outside of their cds

#

So your overall is heavily determined by how well you do the ascendance windows

#

Its similar for sin albeit not as extreme

narrow cave
#

dang

thorn thorn
#

Because ele will typically fall to tank damage when they have no cds available

#

They are a nuke in the form of a spec

desert crest
thorn thorn
#

But I just used ele because its an easy example

thorn thorn
#

Just focus on getting your cd windows goodge

narrow cave
#

Right on thanks everyone, off to the dummies I guess!

#

Appreciate the direction

normal mist
#

Use finishers ALWAYS at 5 or MORE cps

#

dont force 7

#

unless you're playing DS and you have DN

narrow cave
#

That I do know, Id rather use 5 than overcap

thorn thorn
#

Just dont worry about stupid shit

#

Like asking me to ask Whispyr if its better to intentionally hit less targets with fok to avoid overcapping

nova kelp
#

Sub needs god. Or a full rework. It isn't "the finisher" spec anymore. And it's been moved away from the "dance window" guy. Rupture is weird. And the time spent between dances doesn't feel like it's relevant for any real reason other than waiting if you remove anything from the space. Or worse increase its presence.

#

I think I'ma fan of short dance with a short cd. So increase in the cadence without fucking with downtime/uptime loop or turning it into forever spam.
Turn rupture into something that buffs the dance window and do something with symb...

Oh... Wait that's legion sub. I'm a fan of legion sub.

#

A friend of mine didn’t like some of the changes

nova kelp

Most monks just rejoicing in the culling of spirit gang

thorn thorn
thorn thorn
#

Healing amps are kill so good enough for me

nova kelp
#

The spirit gang were chromosomally gifted people

thorn thorn
#

Better than rdruid and rsham is doing on the alpha KEKW

severe meadow
#

Not the e girl healer path

thorn thorn
#

Ill take becoming an egirl healer if it means I dont become the regrowth bot that rdruid is becoming

nova kelp
#

Healing in general looks exceedingly boring on the alpha ATM. I feel like they've stripped so much from the healing role that it's too easy. Like "you're not ALLOWED to be good" easy

#

Or more... And worse. Too easy to be engaging easy.

thorn thorn
#

I have 2 perspectives of that

nova kelp
#

But I've been playing the game for too long. Maybe I'm out of touch

thorn thorn
#

Because for 1 it sucks that its become easier

#

However

#

Its better for new players

#

One of the new players I brought in couldnt play holy priest

#

A healer that presses 4 buttons and has 2 mechanics to worry about in their spec

#

Lightweaver and holy word cdr

#

Too much for them apparently

#

Which is why they are now playing rdruid

nova kelp
#

EasiER is a good thing. Healing kinda brutal ATM as a role. But every role has to at least be ENGAGING. And I don't think they have that balance right atm.

At all.

thorn thorn
#

It depends who you ask and what spec they play

#

Rsham is in the gutter rn

#

Legit a classic wow level of healer simplification

nova kelp
#

But idk yeah. I don't heal much at all ever. So I'm just looking by vibes

thorn thorn
#

Its also stuff like bloat being removed for simplification and to help diversify

nova kelp
#

It definitely makes me lesssssssssssssssssssss likely to ever consider healing though so that has to mean something

thorn thorn
#

The main example of this is Vivify and Sheiluns gift being effectively the same button, sheiluns replaces vivify

#

but vivify does more cleave healing

#

sheiluns more direct

nova kelp
#

I feel like the real litmus test for non dps roles is does it look like something that people would go "ooh I might try that"

If that number go up - good
If that number go down - no good

thorn thorn
#

In my opinion, the healers that are dooming on the alpha changes are just copers

#

Its alpha, things change a lot over its time

#

Its also no secret they have been wanting to push for simplification for a while

#

We have seen hits of it sprinkled around

nova kelp
#

For sure. Everything on there is "ATM"

thorn thorn
#

Like slice and dice being a completely useless button now

#

Their goal, currently, is to get rid of some of the annoying things that exist just because they do

#

sometimes

#

Some changes are like MW, they gutted all the healing amps in the specs kit and to my knowledge its a positive change since your healing cds wont need 12 different healing amps before they do real healing

#

But then you have rsham

#

Which is just a generic healing spec now

nova kelp
#

Lol

compact ether
#

Hey rogue friends with midnight removing WA how are yall gonna track your combo points?

thorn thorn
#

By using my unit frame like i normally do

thorn thorn
#

The list of shit that got removed from it on the alpha reads like a grocery list

nova kelp
#

No I'm aware

#

They're becoming 4 button triage only healers again

#

The healing landscape almost feels like it's returning to PRE mop days

compact ether
nova kelp
#

Hence I feel like they're pulling back too far on it

thorn thorn
#

For reasons unknown they just went scorched earth on rsham

nova kelp
#

The play style is still similar

#

Across the board

thorn thorn
#

Hardly

nova kelp
#

Moving towards "healing rotation"

thorn thorn
#

Rdruid still needs hots to buff regrowth

#

The hots do no healing now

#

Because regrowth has 500 modifiers

#

But you do need them if you want regrowth to do any real numbers

nova kelp
#

All hots and dots are batteries now yeah

thorn thorn
#

Pres is about as far from a triage healer as it gets still

#

MW is still fistweaving with just dot upkeep

#

er

#

hot upkeep

#

Rsham is basically the only one that is just mindless press spell do green number because they removed everything else

nova kelp
#

Yeah maybe

#

See what happens with em

#

Hopefully it gets interesting

thorn thorn
#

rsham needs god straight up

#

They still have a lot of changes to make, alpha things

#

The pres changes accidentally made chronowarden unplayable dogshit but flameshaper very good and comfy to play now, just as comparison

#

I reckon it will be like that for most of the alpha

#

Probably beta too, across the board with specs

nova kelp
#

All the Dev teams got a lot on their plates ATM

#

They gota be Hella stressing to give a good impression

thorn thorn
#

most certainly

#

especially with the addon changes

nova kelp
#

Bro... That poor team

#

It's so much

#

And almost guaranteed to still piss picky people off

thorn thorn
#

Probably

#

But fuck em

nova kelp
#

True

#

I doubt I'll be able to keep Opie. That will make me sad

#

But ah well I guess

thorn thorn
#

What is opie

nova kelp
#

If people tin foil hat theory about "console" *dun dun DUNNNNN is true then maybe I'll get an in game Opie

#

It's a radial wheel add-on for binds

#

Hyper useful

thorn thorn
#

Oh

#

I have never heard of this lmao

nova kelp
#

Is what it is though. I've been on side with remove add-ons and balance the game accordingly for a long time. Amirdrasil just made me start saying it angrily

thorn thorn
#

I have always been on that side since I started playing in SL

nova kelp
#

I kinda THOUGHT we were more likely to go in the direction of a "blizzard work bench" tbh

#

Like a half half approach where the ability of add-ons was governed

#

But they just dropped the Moab instead

thorn thorn
#

Their intent supposedly was to go scorched earth and reel back based on feedback according to one of the interviews

#

Seems believable since thats whats happening

nova kelp
#

Well I mean that's often the blizzard approach. Chop your arm off at the shoulder. So that when you get your bicep returned you're happy rather than mad you're still missing your hand 😂

thorn thorn
#

All it took was 1 week of the players saying BUT MY GAMBLING to get out of combat interactions to be allowed

#

And rcloot of course

#

But that seemed less important than the raid gambling

nova kelp
#

Man I'm just going to be happy I don't have to fear patch day fucking my shit up or get the raid to fight the add-on boss before we pull the raid boss anymore

#

"can you stream so we can see your weak auras and configure your smolderon please?"

#

Audible groan

#

"oh you have BOTH northern sky and liquid? Hmmmmmmm"

#

"what version do you have?"

thorn thorn
nova kelp
#

I use elv. I always just turned it off for a bit myself. But Opie breaking would hurt my soul

#

I'm kinda calmly optimistic about the outlook either way

Just concerned about a handful of things giving a worse impression than warranted

thorn thorn
#

perhaps

#

Im also worried about healing being too boring personally

severe meadow
#

Midnight could be a snooze expac

thorn thorn
#

Midnight is either gonna be legendary or competition for the worst xpac we have had

severe meadow
#

yup

#

low key can't imagine an expac worse than bfa for me

thorn thorn
#

#

Even if the addon thing is botched it wont ruin the game for me personally

#

#

#

I hated everything about slands just about

#

Oribos lap counter was a high point

#

I still take issue with the fact that the player character didn't get through to the afterlife. Look around a bit. And just be like...
"Bro. Where Sylvanas? I'm joining her side and nuking this shit it's so depressing"

nova kelp
#

Actually... Zone wise. As annoying as BFA was the zones were custom built to make me cum

!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.

!vanish

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.

antennaglorp Vanishing On Fatebound antennaglorp

  • you vanish for double jeopardy, a Fatebound talent
  • this causes your next flip to flip an additional coin, and this coin can be an edge-case coin
  • because of this, you want to vanish when you know the next flip is an edge-case flip
  • edge case flips happen as a result of pressing deathmark, kingsbane, or the two envenoms afterwards which are affected by cold blood. You can vanish before ANY of these flips.
  • you should be vanishing every 3 minutes, lining up with every other deathmark, and this will also align with netherprism every 3 minutes for maximum burst

my favourite is still

#

!rick

#

Wait did they remove the rick reverb one

drifting cloud
#

!rik

prisma monolithBOT
#

Rik Reverb Barrels (and similar spread cleave in raid)

  • Not your problem.
  • Assassination is the worst target swapping spec in the game, and we have no tools available to deal with the situation of priority spread cleave. Caustic can reach sometimes but similar to fire mage, the boss needs to be on top of the adds, causing caustic to often be out of range.
  • If you're truly hellbent on swapping to barrels, hold your nearest darkest night and just slam a darkest night envenom into them and pray. If you're quick enough you can also pool combo points/energy and cast a rupture on a barrel to try and caustic off of them. This still will not do good barrel damage, again, the spec is doomed for it
  • Another possible option would be talenting into Crimson Tempest by untalenting Bone Spike and Doomblade. This CAN TECHNICALLY provide a bit of barrel damage, but the spawns need to be immaculate and any difficult spawns will just result in no barrel damage again.
    With all that, the best advice we have for swapping barrels:
  • Swap to Subtlety.

FOTM Info

  • Fatebound is not playable in any AoE situation, and ESPECIALLY not in Mythic+. Don't bother.

  • Tuning is nowhere near done and realistically won't be until mid-September; unless you enjoy playing rogue there is no point in you rerolling at this time, we don't bring anything impactful (e.g big aoe stops/party buff) to the group

  • PTR sheets and PTR sims are borderline misinformation with how rapidly things are changing and most sims are not currently updated at this time. Again, this will fix itself as we get deeper into the patch and things solidify, but judging a reroll off of PTR tier lists and random sims or seeing one guy pump super hard on a stream is not indicative of anything.

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.

!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.
oak tangle
#

see that's where your mistake is

#

restealth is not important

#

unless your tank is a troll and waiting for 1% hp mobs to chain

#

it's shit for a feel perspective, but damage wise, you either use vanish or just take a few more seconds to spread

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.

I would love to get League coaching but again I'm too stupid prideful

#

It just feels wrong

#

I'm sure the improvement would be wild tho

coral ibex
#

like in league you can get a tip about controlling the placement of your cursor better

#

People do coaching more in wow pvp i feel

real pike
#

I used to play League pretty seriously but that was when the general level was way lower

clever sparrow
#

cause it will change your mindset xd

waxen oyster
#

even if technically pvp has a limited number of “reasonable” actions

#

that other team will take

coral ibex
#

well yea any time you are playing vs human opponents

#

coaching is much more relevant

#

ai can only act in ways they're programmed to

#

humans will always innovate strategy

#

Although arguable i guess the highest end pvpers think

#

there will only be 3-4 choices in a scenario

#

that players that know what they’re doing will do

tbh all of my single target fights need review cause im 100% doing lots of things WRONG

#

coral ibex
#

clever sparrow
#

#

i guess i have forgotten about it lol

#

ok so playing with prism on fatebound is finnicky

#

you want to use the 18 stacks on an execute DM

clever sparrow
clever sparrow

#

so you should have sent prism at 1:30 and then at 4:30

#

since you generate 18 stacks over 3ish mins

#

if you have lily its often better

clever sparrow
#

got araz too :3

coral ibex
#

since you only have hero prism then yea i would get a lily too

#

on 5m fights lily usually sims higher than prism

#

for me

coral ibex
