also you might wanna macro cold blood to kingsbane
it's always koffings fault
I do, need to spam harder xD
@raw gale you have a squareheaded raider 
damn you koffing, disabling my pokemon abilities!
you think i dont know, i have to raid with him
@balmy condor prepatch sims when?
also gz on kill 

@balmy condor alpha dooming video when?
when are you going to evolve to weezing?
alpha tier list that's totally not gonna be useless in a month and a half when?
When ulria has his schoolgirl stream
currently updating APL to remove all pooling cause the energy is so fucking high, that way I can add all the pooling back in after they nerf energy
I thought it was supposed to be a slutty nurse
damn so your going to be ftier pokemon forever
I can't keep up with my outfits anymore man
I meeeeean...
real
Why does Sim use netherprism with every DM (not counting the opener) while we usually use it every other DM after the opener? Is it worth using it like Sim does, or is it a stupid idea and a huge loss of DPS?
Like 0.6 worse to use it every DM
I think the “use with vanish every 3m” optimisation is quite small
It is just that they haven't gotten to change the apl
it doesnt make a difference in sim but it does make a difference in actual fights
having 18 stacks for amp and execute and whatever
Ideally you want to save the 18 stack for your DM in execute yeah, you’re probably fine to use with every other DM before you need to start saving it up for that
Netherprism works with other Trinkets? Isnt there an delay for 20 sec? 🤔 So i dont macro the lilly on DM, because the prism cant do his Job in this Phase? 🤔
you dont play double on use as assa
all on-use trinkets have a shared 20 second cooldown
Might be too hardcore for him
ask chatgpt for a response
guys what should i correct with my stats in keys? i have 10335 crit, 6059 haste, 22673 mastery and 14800 verse
how are u 3k and "new" to the game
this is you rn
Your game/spec knowledge
Cant believe green names are giving bad advice smh
The correct answer is CLEARLY to just use randomized gear
That’s unironically pretty much true
Antenna+Prism or prism+araz? Have everything myth
You can throw the araz away unless you’re trying to do like a 2 min heroic clear
or ur a psycho and ur fishing for double CDR bugs
however i sim it keeps saying i need to go towards more haste, But if i check other rogues then from wcl they all ignore the shit out of haste al go full crit / mastery, whats the reason for this?
you aren't wearing the same gear as them
the whole point of sims is that they tell you what is best for the gear you are wearing
But they easilly can swap stats from the crafted pieces, even those are full crit mstery.
think i checked +10 rogues and not 1 has more then 10% haste, yet i'm on 12% and it keeps telling me to pump towards haste
He’s only gone and done it
You know everyday i scroll trough this discord
And fucking everday i see uber posing a details screenshot of his damage what the hell man
Or he has the most huge cock ever or the smallest weener
@humble verge which one is it
Does anyone know if there is still a bug with shroud and bm hunters by chance? Thanks!
That they get in combat?
I guess so, trying to shroud pre pull on nexus king and dont want to bug the hunters
Last time it happend to me was in a priory and that was 2 weeks ago.
if still around no idea but i don't think they fixed that
hey i have a shadowstep macro and it breaks on eco dome last when the phase changes on last boss any idea why?
/cleartarget
/cast [@mouseover] shadowstep
/targetlasttarget
is it just the /targetlasttarget line
in keys our ST on bosses in the bleed build is just non existent right or am i just garbage?
what does bis profile sim antenna at
10% miss??
Default is 0% I’m pretty sure unless otherwise changed
Depends who’s simming
But antenna is bis until like 25%
ive been simming it at 25% and pacemaker is premuch even with it
above tank but dont expect great numbers
its garbage
not you
in pure ST you'll literally lose to a prot war
unless you get good execute value
not sure any other spec has as bad boss damage in key build other than maybe outlaw lol
how often do you have pure st
not often
yeah this is why i've always found it a non issue
it's not as big an issue as it's made out to be
also tbf its only good prot wars
you may lose to
i.e ones that actually gcd cap and weave in executes
On saladbar why does liquid go all the way over to square?
for mythic

on purpose? 😛
my meter
bro
i just pull when i got dam cds
if healer complains i just pull more
actually good strat
pull more
more healing
less time to complain
everyone wins
i mean if healer has time to complain in chat
you aint pressing buttons
all im saying
exactly
I love pug tanks pulling single pack and 'chaining' it by exactly not dropping combat
i have no penur
im just pointing out the sad keys i end up carrying
On pull after the dmg ticks?
Does wound poison work on salad bar?
no
Sorry wrong marker. Why do we run all the way from square to moon
markers are where the dragons spawns for the lasers that travel so you wanna be ontop of one to bait them to create a safe spot to soak
and the reason you move sorta far is because of the beheads to give them more room to spread out and not cleave eachother
Pug healers would rather flame a bad pull than make any amount of effort greater than 0 to salvage it

close
is there anyway to see in logs missed antenna orbs?
you could technically compare the uptime of the 2 separate buffs but its still innacurate it just gives you like a rough idea I think
why are you on an alt rogue
im not
is politechat not an alt
hmm
whats up

idk why i thought you were playing your alt on it
can you cloak off the stacks on salad like before the triple ghosts?
no
only thing you can do reduce the stacks faster is take 1 soak with feint then soak the next slam with cloak
you can cloak to soak with the solo tank if you absolutely have to but uh
taking of 2 stacks in one combo
i was just trying to think if you can survive the triple ghost thing, like if you get messed up
nope
only thing you can do survive fucking that up
is when you get mc'd to have a druid cyclone you
thats about it
so this fight, grrr Salad, so the full group soak puts a stack of something on you and you have to remove it with the ghost? i keep getting mc'd and feel like i am doing everything right driving me nuts
you start with 3 stacks
each soak you do removes a stack
you get a ghost for each stack removed
if you miss the ghost, the stack comes back
ok, and if you have 3 stacks for too long you get mc'd?
if you have any stacks at the end of phase 1, you get mc'd
what causes you to get mc'd before that?
dying
oh so if you take leathal damage you don't die instantly you get mc then die?
yep
god i hate this fight
where are you dying/getting mc'd?
you should be soaking 1 circle per set and looking at every ghost that spawns
1 then 2 then 3 ghosts
yeah just dying, either too low going into the second soak sometimes, oath breaker or whatever i see is killing me a lot think that is just the ticking damage all p1 right?
just swapped to elusivness and going to macro feint to every ability lol
if you get the dot on you press evasion
but tbh also
healers just heal
dont be afraid to send health pot in p1
thats kinda the only phase where you die to not one shot stuff
taking elusivness is good though
cheat death only will really save you in the last phase (maybe)
which dot for evasion?
the one you can get instead of blaze line
oh yeah whatever it is called, i've gotten it a few times yeah
i held cloak for if i ever got the dot and then it was a quick soak
so i wouldnt have the dot for the soak
im a monkey so i cloak on the first soak if it's the quick soak
since its always really scuffed
the gigachad move is to cloak the damage at the start of the fight so you look better on damage taken


The thing is i think nexus king doesnt get better with uncapped/turbo boost
some bosses you can just raw stop with 10 extra item levels if you dont do the stacks you get mcd and ripped
Once you get past phase 1, the boost no doubt helps the platforms and the burn
Oh it def helps but i feel like nexus king you cant just raw dog
where it gets WAY easier
We’re currently experiencing the same on dimmy
I think on dimmy you even gotta hold in p1 no?
yeah turboboost was kinda nice of course but them nuking the damage of the group soak made the fight 100 times easier
oathbreaker + conquer nerf big W
We’re pushing right on time for 1:30’s to be up on first platform, then pushing around gateway on platform 1, then pushing on second wind on platform 2 so CDs are up for the start of p3
Giga cooked
I get 1 prism cast in like 5:45

but imagine if u ran double on-use, might be the most cursed situation of all time!
Yeah if I ran double on use I could hold dps even harder
Wouldnt lily actually be giga good then?
has been the alternative
if you couldnt use prism
No because if I Lily I also get 1 cast in 5:45
Are you holding DM?
Yeh
ahh
Well I guess I get 2 casts of Lily
Cause p1
But then I just have to hold dps at the end of p1
So

wait you aren't holding p1?
We kinda are kinda not
you're pushing before adds?
It’s right on the cusp
holding dps is a crime against god
its so miserable
If we full send we’re 10 seconds early to first plat
brings out my inner pilav
and i have like 12 stacks
fr
(dont tell them that im sending 18 stacks on artoshion)
so what is the dps holding actually for? 2nd platform?
or what happens if everyone just perma sends
its so that you have 3's up for p1
and then you want artoshion and pargoth to last as long as possible
so you have 3's again for the amp
World of Warcraft streamer Pilav just wants to do damage. (Best warrior BTW love you Pilav)
#Pilav #WorldOfWarcraft #Shadowlands
Healer CDs, CDs for p3
is shaman the only 3 min class
every 1:30 is also a 3 in this case
oh true

I fucking hate healer cds no CAP
same shit on mugzee
"lets hold dps so WE CAN HAVE HEALER CDS"
fuck off man just press your dumb little heal
anyways glad im playing warrior on dimmy, no holding here zugzug my cds have cdr and also dont do much 
We had our dev player go Aug cause it’s better
But then turbo happened and the timers are fucked
So now they’re on omega tilt
Cause Aug is spreadsheet spec
ye thats giga cursed
thats like sub in amir
then they nerf fyrak
so i gotta redo cds
for that entire fight
hey atleast theres a 3% dmg buff next week, surely it doesnt fuck up things even more!!
im glad to have a fight thats like perfectly designed for my specs but by the time i get to it the timers are so fucked i just play with my dick mid pull instead

i still reckon its better to just not pick up the orbs
instead of full sending/holding
timers are so wack now
Hold 3% earlier 
Haven't touched fatebound at all, nor sin really this season, bout to give it a try, is it chill?
I actually liked the deathstalker tree ngl, big envenom
Fatebound is the tap water of hero talents
It has little to no rotational impact, realistically only does something every 1:30
If you can play deathstalker, you just add vanish into your cd sequence, never finish on 7, and you’re playing fatebound
Well yeah, the only reason to finish on 7 would be darkest night
That obviously doesn’t exist for fatebound
aight, which trinkets favor sin atm? i have all the major ones except antenna sadly
Prism antenna
nice, no antenna xd, double on-use gas on sin?
It’s uhhh
Not ideal
But if you don’t have a passive myth (pacemaker, sacbrood, etc) then it’s probably fine
why not, doesn't the spec turn into a 90sec spec ?
We do damage outside of our cooldowns
As weird as that sounds
Double on use is purely subtlety brainrot
yeah, i have sub brain this season, my b
now, to make a gearset without fully recrafting shit since i play sub in m+
high vers sin incomin 💀
That’s fine
No bad stats for assa
You’ll be a couple of % below optimal optimal stats but like
Flipping big or not probably more variance so who cares
fair, i love rng
Plenty of people do
the little mini game
Oh that was fun
fr
All in the name of dumbing specs down
nice, from 5 buttons in st to 4!
im gonna be honest
Wait I forgot vanish, 8 to 7
mannnnnnnnnnnn
er/sepsis/snd etc were not great buttons
but at least i felt something
i felt alive when i was doing stuff in opener
i hate snd
now i press 3 buttons and go back to envenom
interanl bleeding or swap to casutic
otherwise fatebound
caustic
always caustic if you even sniff the fart of an add
as either hero talent
Tbh with current gear and rep
You just play fb everywhere
What’s the point of ds anymore
fatebound keys pog
man, i miss during prog when i hit a big envenom and i'd interupt raidlead with "ya'll see that big envenom"
And you didn’t get gkicked?
If our boomkin did that on starsurge crits we’d server mute his ass
And he hit a 110mil crit the other day
They crit 3 starsurges and then afk is the issue
channeled your inner grognak there for a secon
yeah, lost my cool

Every headline from Australia is a fever dream
have you heard about neil the seal??
i want nothing more than to live in a world filled with headlines like these
Wait, holy does fatebound want crit
ye
What damage at Araz fight, thats being shown in Details isn't being counted in Logs?
adds in the last bit im pretty sure
Because according to details, I had 8.49 mil dps, but logs only had 7.1 or smth
I feel robbed
unluggy
Pad less I guess 

i mean although this is technically australia, it's at least a seperate island
i was being robbed of dps on saladaar cause the guy doing logs was the other platform, so i had to upload my own logs, i went from 85 to 97 %ile
Can anyone take a look at my log from Fract to see what im doing wrong rotation wise.
I think the damage is super low, and idk I dont recall misplaying rotation on this boss.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/7xRvg83N6QDkFnK4?fight=last&type=damage-done&source=7
NM since I'm doing 4x bosses for quest but this was more of an exercise to get rotation feedback on a target dummy fight
I want you to understand that this is almost certainly nowhere close to any of us in this discord.
But also, protect the crabs
🦀
well firstly you got the tier set bug, here you need to hold KB, when the tier set bug happens you play around coldblood cd
3:56 normal mode kill seems crazy btw wtf
like this is 2 months ago, how is 3:56 even possible 
Yeah that kill timing is pretty rubbish
cause normal is shitty geared alts that people dont know how to play
not mains trying to get tier
wait do you think im australian
it's a compliment im sure
I just thought you’d appreciate the crabs
The other ones are aussie

Honestly with your trinkets and that boss timing it seems fine
where r ur other poisons
Uhoh
no
Can I upload now even after multiple hours?
also it's nice as fuck to just get to 5 CP instantly with just one Muti

i don't think that'll be the problem on araz
but sure
How? 
its like the thing i check first with logs now
warcraftlogs uploader
I cannot believe this is common enough to be a first check
yeah wait where is amp / crippling 
usually its just crippling because no one reads what the talents actually do
amp missing is nuts tho
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI OI
to be fair kush did all of their fract prog without crippling on
AUSSIE
⏰ CRIPPLING POSION CHECK ⏰ was typed quite a lot in his chat 
at least pepegaroach can take this as a lesson in checking ur poisons more vigilantly
I just spam my F keys between wipes to never run into the problem personally

good ol bazza
Another SWLG's sterling act. Welcome to Australia and experience our deadly fauna!
I wrote a Makro so I can just press one button to apply the poisons one by one 
Guys can I ask, on myth plexus on 1 my cd I have logs 50, on second cd 80, but all what I change its use council on my weapon, well my question is should I up my crit for st in my gear?
I saw ppls they have like 20k crit and 1k haste is it good ?
Is that bait or a genuine question?
Thats like 3 points that have nothing to do with eachother
Sim yourself and do what the robot says
The difference in CD length is a bug on fb for forever now
The enchant has nothing to do with that and is determined by your sim
How much crit you want is determined by the sim aswell
There are no magical stat amounts
We don’t have cap any stat on rogue?
I’m just playing 2 month, trying learn everything
No, as a matter of fact you dont have caps anywhere except for shatter on frostmage maybe
But that has to do with the mechanic and not the stat
lmao i forgot poisons after going bleed build for hunters
I mean if u rly should focus on crit for raid, i need focus on take some gear, now I don’t have a lot and mostly playing keys when I prefer bit more haste
!bugs
I just wear my raid gear when I use bleed. If it's good enough for a 17 idc
Fatebound generally likes crit more than deathstalker but yeah sim yourself
Like the extra haste isn't going to make me. I ain't giga pushing
I ask saw some players they literally have 1000 haste with fatebound that’s fine if we spam envemom?
Sure probably. I have more than that in raid but idk. I don't really think that hard about stats
FB likes some crit. I have some crit
Everything is good
Sin just be kinda easy going on stats
Sometimes I have window when I afk like 3-5 second because don’t have energy on spam is it okay ?
That is sin rogue
Even if you stack haste, there will be downtime
I worry not about energy, I’m feel like I’m afk ahahha
You WILL have small periods of downtime. Sin isn't a hammer every GCD spec. And it likely never will be.
@balmy condor
Just Sim yourself as you go and trust the clanker to put the right gear on you
I feel that
DW about the stats. Getting that extra haste won't change your button throughput
Get haste coz clanker say get haste
We be vibin like that
Bing chilling
@balmy condor I swear whenever I have one of these wt work, I think of you
You made it into my head
Congrats
I just want found the way with take gear for raid, ig I just should focus on bis
u got no zucker
You think of me? 
Always

what is the lowest energy benchmark to stop spamming and wait for energy to recharge to avoid consuming a charge of Thistle TEa
you don't play around tea
wdym ? i was under the assumption that you play around tea in ST to be able to spam enough envenom during Deathmark/Kingsbane
not anymore
not for like 2 seasons, maybe all xpac
i think we did in s1 but then the sims showed it didn't matter at all
so we stopped bothering
oh i didn't know thank you for the quick reply Spark so you forget about thistle tea regardless of Energy and just keep spamming envenom and send Deathmark on cd ?
what about being starved for energy since that is still a thing ? do i just recharge to 100 and go ?
or do i totally forget about it ?
You aren’t starved in Deathmark ever
you just macro tea with shiv for the mastery boost, and if it auto procs outside of that then you get the energy
!macro
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
you don't really play around energy at all, there's a small optimisation where you pool a wee bit about 5 seconds before you KB
i think
this is bis for assa
this will change in Midnight
but for now you swim in energy in aoe and inside deathmark, and you run out outside of that 
thank you i'm using exactly these macros the issue , this is my issue tho
It’s not an issue. Let it happen
so basically i consume 2 charges during both shiv windows under Deathmark but the third one is just there
ok that was my worry
energy is good
Get to about 100 and send
Just need enough for envenom uptime because that’s all that matters
and do i even send kingsbane alone due to Fatebound CDR or always wait for DM + Kingsbane since DM is affected by the CDR as well ?
perfect so Tl;DR :
Forget about Thistle Tea management
Pool a bit before KB reset (maximize envenom windows under KB)
DM+KB >KB>DM+KB
thanks a lot guys
I've auto procced tea inside DM a few times, it can happen if you're really unlucky with muti CPs and blindsides
Wait this I was not aware of, so it's not really materially more damage to be spamming on GCD for all of KB? I should only care about keeping env up during?
you just want to stack KB up ASAP
which usually means you'll want 2 envenom buffs up when you hit it
I've been pooling to 280 so I can hit abilities on GCD inside kingsbane hahahah
so you don't want to be unable to make that happen
once it's max stacked then nothing else you do increases its damage
and it stacks up pretty fast
Gawddamn
I haven't been making sure to have double env up when I hit KB tho, only one stack
So I should have double envenom buff active before I hit kb?
Ah ok I have been doing that
checking some logs, it's taking me 4s to hit 50 stacks during DM
and 5.5 outside of DM
oh that during lust
lil bit longer outside of lust
Ffs thought I'd found an easy way to higher parses
Nvm
well 2 stacks will stack it fractionally faster
but like
point is, once you've got it to 50 nothing else you do will make it do more dam so you don't need to have energy left after that point
so you don't need to pool much
and even then it's something like 0.5% total increase
Tbh I will probably continue pooling to 280 because I enjoy the feeling of smashing buttons inside cd windows
But at least I now have a proper understanding of how it all works
and you can relax knowing that whatever you choose to do isn't making or breaking your dps lol
in fact, the only thing that really matters is that you envenom before kb, and then envenom once after kb
any additional after that is functionally just a regular envenom and holds little to no value for your actual kb
all these people that don't understand being energy capped
and or how our abilities work
smh mh
like if full spamming is the red line for stacks
the green line is what you get out of envenom before + the one envenom afterwards
my engineering ass just sees a elastic / plastic deformation graph
Kinda looks like a snowy mountain top that’s on a lean
or to convolute it even more
getting a stack at the start
when it buffs like a billion ticks
better than getting a stack at the end
when no buff a billion ticks
hahaha
whoever made that graphic should get banned from making graphs
NOW YOU DO
me and whispyr after i stop trolling him everytime im here
Label your axes you uncultured swine
should be obvious what the axis are based on their measurement you blind hag
can't assume thing in these highly precise diagrams
whispyr being denounced for improper axis labeling
that's kingsbane stacks you donkey
timing a key has never been harder now that you gotta do 12s for crests
Done! Thanks for showing me this gem
!macro
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
do I ever cb outisde of the KB thingy?
nope
doesn't matter
you can also ambush first gcd if you want
I just have to put some sequence into the guide
but aside from the shiv-dm-kb, it's actually giga whatever
just checking to see if it's one of those "I need to write a mutilate in stealth macro" situations
super not strict
you mean like the very first global of the fight?
ye
oh cool, doesn't fuck with my deathstalker muscle memory from the last 2 ssns
the sequence is:
- do whatever and get rupture/gar up
- get envenom up
- vanish somewhere in here -> shiv -> all the buffs -> dm -> kb
-> shiv when the first drops
and then gg fatebound successfully played
hardest part about the rotation is not falling asleep
haha interesting, a bit of a difference from the sub I've been playing this ssn
ye
do I ever send shivs outside of cds?
No
haha okay that's nuts
I’m telling you
It’s 4-5 GCD sequence for deathmark
And then remembering where your envenom keybind is
That’s the entire spec
so guessing this has been a "I miss deathmark" kinda season?
oh I only rly get shivs for deathmark not for the "naked" kbs
Real, the opener/raid rotation is like meditation for me
huh I don't even have to track any of the coins do I lmfao
Nope
do I wanna use the 2nd DM shiv during the last 8 seconds of the KB or do I just send the 2nd shiv within the DM window?
you only track it for personal dopamine
back 2 back
guessing in the "naked" kb I press it in last 8 sec
shiv dm kb -> shiv as the first one runs out
and yes for the solo kb u shiv the end
yeah the KB being longer than DM trips me up
is the thistle keybound into shiv macro optimal or is it just a "if ur lazy and don't care for 0.5% macro it" situation?
Love when coins on fatebound drops like if my walled would broke lol
just to reiterate because i forgot, to "optimally" play netherprism we wanna vanish>shiv>dm>kb?
any knowers?
optimal
If you macro vanish and prism you vanish before dm otherwise it doesnt matter where you vanish
how much of a difference is it really to use prism with first and third DM if macroed to vanish, versus use it every DM but weaker if you macro it to DM
like 0.6% or something
but then ur also more succeptible to shit kill timers
not really?
if you see that boss is gonna die early
you just press ur vanish (its now a trinket bind)
I mean foresight is the only thing u need on this spec
but yeah I mean sometimes it is what it is
alright I see the light now
I think I still prefer deathstalker cos there's more to think about but I see the appeal of the coinflip
well the real appeal of fatebound is it being 20% ahead in dam 
haha fair, but I don't rly look at numbers much, I meant the fact ur rotation is simpler which lets u do mechanics and easier/better target swap
Rotation I would say is practically the same I don't see any difference
We still play deathstalker on soulbinder?
You are a scholar
Deathstalker is the clearly superior gameplay
how it feels to prefer the hero talent that has a chance to just randomly fuck you
then again it's rogue everything is fucking bugged

don't like either ngl
I like deathstalker it's just a shame it came out buggy as fuck and even if they fix it somehow it will leave that bad taste in everyone's mouth, the idea is cream imho, same as tricskter-rly good idea with some things randomly being weird, rly only fatebound seems kinda underwhelming
I find it difficult to differentiate fatebound from trickster, I feel like it's the same theme
DS is way more interesting to play and interactive
Meanwhile deathstalker has like a cool distinctive theme
How someone can say this followed by FB is the superior gameplay
I cannot and will not understand
no point discussing tastes : )
Haven't you just been doing exactly this 
touche, I meant that more as in "no point going after other people's likes"
Fair enough, just a bit of fun on my part but I'm not here to offend anyone
xoxo
from the very moment I understood DS to be "combo points back on per target basis, just not called such" I started hating it
Huh
like the design is back to "you can't actually target swap, even if you're afforded time to set up dots and whatnot, you still have to move DSM and that's just not a good value proposition at all"
I dont have alpha access and didnt watch any stuff on it, but to me it sounded like you can still target swap with garrote, just cant apply new marks if the actual target has some. Thats absolutely fine gameplay
Also even if you cant, I wouldnt care at all
It even introduces some thought process if you need to consume the marks before you can swap, which might be very much needed in the midnight version
It does not work like that, you cant swap if its up on something
So for example at a boss like the dh boss in the current raid you still can fuck up because the target still has it?

Alright, thats kinda whack then, because making it freely swappable would kinda be in line with their "make stuff more approachable" theme rn, but imo its still whatever. Most swaps are rather scripted so you can prepare well enough and for m+ its fine aswell
Ye seems like an easy fix, but then again so is making darkest night affect black powder so the hero talent doesnt feel like ass on sub, and they havent done that yet
hey, lets be real for a sec there
sub desing goals seem to be "how can we avoid making fixes and instead make overly complicated changes for no reason" for a good while now 
Hello anyone here could help real quick ? i'd like to know where did i fuck up to rank around 51 on loomythar Mythic ? anyone can check log real quick ?
Oh I gotchu
I don't mind that, I'm a classic enjoyer, back in my day you couldn't even tab off your target iirc
yeah, before TBC release, you swap targets - you lose combo
TBC made it so that you only lose when you use a builder on a diff target
The good old days
i'm going to guess the .. nothing happening between 2:40 and 2:55, that's a lot of time of doing 0 dps essentially, that's my only guess
so your 2nd deathmark at 1:45, and you didn't do a third DM until 4:00
You don't play sanguine in raid
why/where are you playing sanguine blades in raid?
kill timings, no netherprism, you go into a few no dm kb's withotu envenom, on one of them you ruin any coins stacks by rupturing before using the cold blooded envenoms
you are late on your second shivs
You could also hold DM for execute phase
yeah i was just abotu to check that, cause you send it right before lust
which would be worth more to hold for the amp
lucky stats?
no 34% critt
Hey, quick question about how Kingsbane works. So there's the hit that is applied when you apply it, and then it stacks every time you proc poison? Is it basically another instance of damage for your lethal poison proc or is it a big hit at the end?
ticks every 2 seconds
So is it safe to think of kingsbane as like a buff to your lethal poison while it's up?
with the lowered cap in TWW you'll usually cap the stacks after like 5 seconds in dm
it ramps up with each poison tick
so it does tick harder, but with how it got changed, we max out pretty quickly from the sound of it?
yes
I dunno man, that isn't how I thought it worked based on the tooltip, but I appreciate the clarification
I hope I helped, if not come back when smarter people are around
kingsbane doesn't buff shit
the damage kingsbane does on each tick, is dependant on how many poisons you've applied
you can have at max 50 stacks of kingsbane damage amp
Is there anything we can do to make it stack faster?
Besides doing the rotation correctly, I mean
is it any stronger of a button press or did the other changes kinda neutralize any buff
it is much weaker than it was in DF, which depending on your point of view can be a good thing
i kinda always liked when it was strong. Rotation seems to be smoothed out enough to allow it
!mistakes
in DF when it was strong we were KB the spec and every CD sequence was centered around juicing it as much as possible, currently you can fire it and it stacks up quick and you just gotta remember to shiv
but then again we do press it more currently
yea DF felt good.
Like not specifically the rotation, but just knowing KB time was hard hitting felt good
Why I moved to Sub after Dance was lost I guess
Depends on if you cared about your parse being dependent on those last ticks critting
Yea. didnt care bout parse either
just to clarify, the shiv is important because it buffs the last few ticks of KB which are the strongest ticks right?
yes the logic is a bit different this season with the tier sets tho
it's fatebound all the way this tier right?
if you are playing fatebound you want to shiv to cover DM and then on your non-dm kb you want to shiv the last 8 seconds
this is generally correct, the reason you shiv the end of dm is because kb is already stacked to 50, and you also gain more bleed damage on the double bleeds.
it doesn't have to be the final ticks, as if the kb is already 50 stack, but as a general rule of thumb the conditions will suffice
it's becoming more like that, you can deathstalker for soulbinder and soul hunters
but funnily enough, my best parse on H soulhunters was with fatebound
for multi target fights, just switch to caustic splatter, right?
yeah for sure
pretty much as soon as a single add exists for a single second of a fight, spatter beats internal bleeding
Any other tips for FB sin this tier in general? I feel my envenom casts were lower, any idea what might be causing that?
yea, that's fair. no reclears for a while and I'm planning on finishing the tier as sub. the command's !log right?
nah just link em in here
sub likes their review threads
sin is far more casual
not that you can't get one made, but like this is the off topic channel so log reviews keep us back on topic
i'm happy to look over old logs
i have a super small question regarding m+; is it better to run fatebound instead of deathstalker if stealth uptime is a problem? or is deathstalker by default always better?
stealth uptime should not be a problem
fatebound kinda does less damage with more targets, and deathstalker has the funnel
the only problem would be if you lose your mark, but you have vanish charges, and even if a tank doesn't let you restealth between packs you with have darkest night to shift mark
so i'm not that sure what you mean by stealth uptime
no i think you answered my question/hesitations actually
i noticed in pugs i wasnt able to restealth all the time inbetween packs due to chainpulls. but i just have to a) keep track of mark better and b) utilise darkest night always
yeah, ironic cause we're losing addons, but it could be worth having a clear indicator that you have DN proc ready
i am using vesperaltv's plater profile now and it is already making it a bit easier to follow my dots
so i think its simply down to muscle memory
👍
tbh i do kinda wish that shadewalker would reduce the cd on vanish instead of shadowstep ;p
but would probably make sin too easy
ha, we'll never get that
i am also holding vanish too much i think, with 2 charges i can be aggresive. so i'll work on it. ty!
i use vanish, if the tank doesn't let me restealth, or if a pack lasts a long time
and occasionally below 35%
yeah i shouldnt revanish mid pack, i gotta just manually reapply garrotes and ruptures. and rewire my brain to always open with ambush. after years of mop/classic its hard to get used to that ;p
that's not neccessarily true
if the pack is still healthy
vanish to reapply is fine
in my anecdotal evidence, (albeit i dont go above 12's) packs dont last long enough to warrant another vanish
never use garrotte in aoe when it is not buffed, only spread ruptures, keep ct up and splatter
Is m+ deathstalker bleed build still ass at single target?
pure st yes, if you pull adds into the fight its better
my favourite is when shitty adds are pulled onto a boss for funnel, and these dog shit paladins and others press their aoe buttons
I see. I’ve played plenty of assa on keys but I think I prefer sub. Just feels better not having to worry about stealth and or if the tanks aware of the funnel concept
Every spec needs funnel in higher keys and if you do lower keys dmg does not matter
isnt sub like super suspect to messing up the rotation? like 1-2 buttons in your burst/opener incorrectly and you do healer dps?
sub is all about using your cooldowns effectively and it doesn't do much outside of them, so naturally if you mess them up it's not going to be good
I mean yeah but the rotations easy. Push all your cooldowns and then it’s literally two buttons
are sin bugs fixed btw? i saw the pins but no pin mentioning a fix xd
if not, i might dabble in a bit of sub too
it's best to think of bugs as intended. and not get caught up on them
i guess yeah. damage numbers are still up there
it's a crazy misnomer that people have that their spec will have all bugs fixed and suddenly be over the top damage wise and not get nerfed
the only bug i'll accept caring about, is the tier set cdr one
but you can just be ethical and wait out cold bloods cd
Bugs only fuck those who don't know about them
Like that talent that doesn't work at all (momentum of despair?idk) because of the tier set
Dudes are just copy pasting wow spells with different seasonings
Literally scent and poison bomb lmao
Almost
😭 i lost my 99
I don't even care about the proccing twice thing, I can work around it. It's the rare not proccing one.
What are these creature that you post from btw friend
his mind palace
bro I love wonderwall!!!
we dont question it
just accept it
I need the animator to include glorp in the adventures of this being
There he is again 😄
(am dead)
im glad i got to fix my araz log
before they fixed the p3 adds

how bad is mythic Dim as ass? get to start soon
any helpful nuggets of info to pass
its literally bis
its one of the best specs avaible for him lol
you do great dmg in all phases
Flip yo coin twin 
turns out, a fight where you can slam cds on cd and have multiple cd windows with execute dmg boost AND can cleave
is good for assa
The purple people eater enjoys letting our coins do many damage
most excellent
got like 5% left on saladbar which i assume should be one person not orb to the facing
I hate sub so I just stab 🙂
Well it was obviously always super good but RWF guilds wanted to keep it a secret from us plebs so they’d win right
i mean, sub was great for what they played it for
Btw why sub bad now, just one of those things I guess 🙃
(Trolling, do not respond)
Yeah, burst + adds + amp + perfect cd timings are a hell of a boost
like
because sub was bursting adds down
others could play more boss dmg
needing to do something like that was not needed after a couple weeks anymore
Turns out assass very good at boss damage
after the bug fix, yes, that was a good boost for assa
and, well
dimmi is also a good fight for it cus you have multiple "execute windows"
yeah 3% is not that much but also the top specs being nerfed
and assa has the strongest execute in the game rn
(iirc)
so it all kinda adds up

90sec cd window also means you dont need to hold cds really
Funny how requirements to kill the boss changed from a perfect line up for sub to a perfect lineup for assass
well, killtimers change, and circumstances inside the raid change over time
Exactly
if you dont need to minmax around add bursting anymore, add bursting becomes less important
But those kind of nuances get missed by many leading to all the questions asking why assass is on top
Sub is still very strong on dimensius, I'm not convinced that the slight lead assa has isn't due to tier set bug abusers
now that you aren't holding dps in farm, sub can't send on both artoshion and pargoth platform, assa can if they proc the bug. there are a couple top logs with bug proc allowing them to send on artoshion/pargoth/damage amp despite the time between those events being like 1min15s
1 of the big reasons why sub is almost always the "best" spec, is because mythic raids LOVE having important adds you need to kill very fast, and sub excells at that
that implies you can force the tier bug
lol
AND then it would be that way for all other bosses aswell, or not
lily better for ST and prism for M+?
well specifically on dimensius it is extremely strong, just saying that a lot of the top logs (assuming we're looking at 90-95th percentile data) are using the bug, willingly or not
will top logs not always be the bug
cus its a dmg up if it happens and you react accordingly
idk, didnt look at logs much this tier
i mean it happens far more often than it doesnt
ngl
like if you went in planning to use the bug you'd win out more often than not
true gamba hero talent
THATS a big assumption right there lol
its not an assumption, its literally based on my own data
thats the exact opposite of an assumption
All my homies love coins 
you could say its too small of a sample size which is fine, but absolutely not an assumption
I agree it happens way more then not.
I’ve seen comments around this that suggest there is some action you can take that makes it more likely for the bug to proc, is that the case or is it really just pure rng?
you can apparently delay your globals until the lucky coin actually procs to reduce the chance of it happening, but idk of a way to make it more likely to happen
i also just always play around cb cd and pretend it doesnt happen though so never looked into it
Ah I thought it might be something to do with some fine timings
im not saying there isnt some tech, just if there is i dont know it
I’m not looking to try force it, I’m just curious
I don’t need to bug abuse to get my 91 parses 😎
I play better without the bug abuse because its so annoying seeing suddenly having DM up. and KB comes off cooldown in 15 seconds.
and im like
oh what now
Agree, actually throws me off my rhythm
Sometimes I let the intrusive thoughts win and just slam DM against my better judgement even
yeah sometimes im like, i will send this DM and double shiv. and dont shiv the KB
guys what u recommend to take for dinnars? if i cant take myth antenna, i only 2/8m
im thinking about hc boots, but dinnars for hc meh
730 lily might be better than prism for raid
Might.
But the real answer is hold it until you can get a loomi kill
i dont have guild probably i can waste time xd)
Lots of pugs do 3/8 these days
Especially with turbo boost out
I stopped raiding with my guild early this season and ended up going 5/8 with a mates guild on a random reclear night
Making friends in this game is important for this kind of thing I find
maybe i also can take second myth weapon and recraft
I’m fairly sure that 727 with ascendance is better than 730 in your offhand but you could
Why not just sim the options from keys as well?
nah, prism will ultimately sim better tbf
even with 0% fail
I actually took netherprism first because ive lost every single normal and heroic roll
And I want to stop complaining about that 😂
More likely to find antenna in vault or natty grab it anyway
if that was the case
it would be known here
dont you think...?
it is known
Its in whispyr his video
Just not explained in the discord
