I've been building to 7 cp's for my cb during dm, is that good/bad or negligible?

balmy condor
#

bad

haughty pewter
#

thx

#

Consistently getting to P2.2, should be grabbing a prism from vendor on tuesday, will be sending prism on first plat and holding for P3

You could shiiv more, the first shiv I see is at 1:15 which isn't in your death mark window. Shiving in your deathmark window allows you to skip marks and get more darkest night procs in your deathmark. It also increases the damage of those envenoms which should be caustic spattering.

Caustic Spatter should be your 1st or 2nd biggest damage dealer over the course of a key. The uptime should be higher as it's only at 57%.

balmy condor
#

you're also just straight up not spreading garrotes

#

you pressed it twice in your subterfuge window here

#

just seems like a fundamental misunderstanding of your priorities

#

should be stealth garrotes on everything, five ruptures, then CT to get it up, cooldowns, then spam envenom

#

instead what's happening is maybe garrote, five ruptures, and then kind of just a mess

#

no stealth garrote means no damage and no energy

#

which means no sanguine blades

#

which means no bleed damage

#

and because you're not using subterfuge/carnage correctly and pressing CT again randomly

#

you're stuck hitting bleeds out of carnage when you should be hitting envenom

#

and everything just kind of falls apart

#
  1. bleeds
  2. cooldowns
  3. envenom
#

every time

#

thanks everyone will correvt them 🙂 didnt know till someone pointed it out :)\

#

Soon brothers ! Soon we can get into beta and see how simple the new CT gameplay has become

tired bloom
#

The new changes at least cemented my decision to quit playing assa, I don't like energy pooling

#

@balmy condor tf did you do to your name

#

it's so thicc

#

I thought fuu was the graphic design cutie

balmy condor
#

discord update from a couple days ago

red schooner
#

I hate it uglyassdog

tawdry halo
#

Change

#

yuck

marble wadi
#

is there any build aside of bleed that can be played in dawnbreaker

balmy condor
#

some people play cleave, but just a quick look at logs, it's like 99% bleed

#

some russian guy played fatebound cleave

#

and it seems like he's the only one within 3 key levels to do so

#

take that as you may

marble wadi
#

ill limit test the patiance of my companions with it

balmy condor
#

they should worry about their own gameplay

marble wadi
#

amen

stiff topaz
balmy condor
#

kinda

#

missing the ruptures

#

and there's no point in vanishing

stiff topaz
#

True true

balmy condor
#

but yeh close enough

stiff topaz
#

I've been using Hekili in delves just to get a feel for shit (obviously dont expect Hekili to be accurate, but it's a starting point) since I'm not used to dot specs

#

but figured it's time to take the training wheels off

#

fwiw I started teh guy yesterday

balmy condor
#

tbf, it's not really much of a dot spec

stiff topaz
#

so I'm new new

balmy condor
#

it's an envenom spec that happens to require maintaining some dots

stiff topaz
#

tl;dr from what I've gathered so far;

keep Garrote and Rupture up perma

balmy condor
#

and in m+ you get to spread it out a lil

stiff topaz
#

build/spend with Muti+Enven

#

but it seems like I kinda want to get Garrote out on all targets, and that part has me kinda flummoxed so far

balmy condor
#

only from stealth

#

non-stealth garrotes are dogass gigashit

stiff topaz
#

No CD for 6 secs after stealth ye?

balmy condor
#

more so the damage part I guess, but yeah that helps

stiff topaz
#

Stealth into pull -> spread Garrote with stealth buff -> Rupture on main target -> Shiv + Deathmark -> build + CT -> build+Enven?

#

or CT before Deathmark?

balmy condor
#

gotta rupture twice for scent of blood, ct before deathmark

stiff topaz
#

++

#

all send into main target I reckon?

balmy condor
#

if you want

stiff topaz
#

Assuming there is a high value target in the pack I suppose

balmy condor
#

some people get really sweaty with it and will try to convince you that you have to get mouseover macros

stiff topaz
#

That sounds like a thing for later 😛

balmy condor
#

in case you happen to waste 1 garrote out of a billion for the INSANE dps loss

stiff topaz
#

hahaha

balmy condor
#

they get super butthurt when you tell them you don't care

#

that's usually my strat

stiff topaz
#

I like that strat

#

Do I care about opening with Ambush from stealth?

balmy condor
#

have to for deathstalkers mark

stiff topaz
stiff topaz
balmy condor
#

it's got nothing to do with APL

#

it's just the stupidity of trying to ram sim logic into gameplay

#

it vanishes for master assassin crit, because it has fundamentally no understanding of holding vanish to allow you to spread bleeds later on

stiff topaz
#

Fair

#

fwiw, my gut feeling was that Vanish is better saved to make sure you have stealth between pulls

#

especially in chain pulls

balmy condor
#

thank fucking christ hekili is gone in midnight

#

can't wait

stiff topaz
#

I like Hekili, but most people definitely misuse it/misunderstand the point of it.

balmy condor
#

weakauras died in the war

#

but elvui and hekili are gone

#

a worthy sacrifice

stiff topaz
#

😄

#

I guess the technically optimal thing is to target swap when spreading Garrote and Rupture through IndCarnage?

balmy condor
#

mouseover macros so you don't lose auto attacks

main bobcat
stiff topaz
#

Is it normal to experience somewhat severe energy starvation in ST in M+ build? I assume there's a high chance I'm fucking something up

#

or is that the reason why Assa lowkey requires adds on bosses to deal relevant damage?

#

(at least I remember hearing that earlier this season)

!design

prisma monolithBOT
#

Running out of energy in single target is completely normal, intended design of Assassination. As a burst spec our damage is mainly loaded into Deathmark/Shiv and massive Envenoms through stacking multiple nature damage buffs such as Lingering Darkness, Shiv, Darkest Night, Amplifying Poison, and more. This comes with the natural downside of our damage suffering outside of these windows, in part due to the designed lack of energy slowing us down.

Because of this, there is only one minor (0.3%) min-max with energy, which is pooling 3-4 seconds into an upcoming Kingsbane. Ideally this would put you at around 50-60% energy before you enter your Kingsbane, which is more than enough energy alongside thistle tea. Outside of that, spam Envenom and just accept that you will run out of energy. There is nothing you can do to not run out of energy. Playing around Envenom uptime also is not relevant anymore, as Twist the knife allows for two stacks at a time, which reduces wasted uptime dramatically. Without twist the knife, wasting uptime is unavoidable.

jaunty notch
#

!macro

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

jade abyss
#

can we take the soulhunter charge solo with cloak or eva ?

royal lantern
#

cloak, its magic dmg

jade abyss
#

thank you

humble verge
#

im gonna join in an alt run today with the guild im potentially joining

pliant remnant

dire ivy
#

Hey, playing a bit of assas again since s1. do we not ambush at all unless we proc as fatebound on the current best ST talent loadout? i. e. do i remove ambush from my stealth bar?

royal lantern
#

doesnt matter really

#

ye, opening with garrote is technically very slightly better

#

but we talk about a borderline imaginary thing there

dire ivy
#

im mostly concerned about the mutilate after vanish one. since we dont seem to play imp. garrote i dont need to garrote after vanish and on wowhead it reads to vanish -> mut not vanish -> ambush

shy axle
#

thats just one possibility, even the vanish placing is variable there

#

just vanish and finish, no matter ambush/mut or even finishing directly with vanish -> env is ok

golden loom
#

And the mutilate is only there if you have to build, with coins from cds giving combo points if they crit (cause they are bugged) + shiv/kingsbane combo point generation, often you dont even have to build there and can just envenom

coral ibex
#

well you can fix this entirely by always vanishing before DM

#

and then your next gcd will always be DM

#

the actually correct answer tho is that it doesn't matter

dire ivy
#

Got it, thanks guys

coral ibex
#

you can press mutilate or ambush

#

you won't notice a difference

shy axle
#

does anyone know if the trash before nexusking respawns with the miniboss after killing him? just need the rep form 1 mini and misse dit last wednesday

#

never paid attention

severe meadow
#

End time are upon us..

coral ibex
#

hes a casual rs3 player

#

he logs in regularly

limber walrus
vestal wren
#

mostly performance

#

plater, weakauras and elvui

#

the death trinity for your fps

#

players who are performance aware,
which means who like to play on higher frame rate monitors or have weaker hardware
usually avoid the mentioned in favor of some lightwight alternatives

#

I try to go a bit more into details with examples.
If we look at nameplates, this article did a lot of the testing work for us already.
The author created a graph showcasing differences from his data:

#

I did a similar test a while ago, but i had one addon included that's missing from the list

#

nameplatekai which offers quite a bit more functionality than e.g. kui, because that's a key factor in deciding on addon use.

#

what i found was that nameplatekai took iirc 3 times less cpu cycles as kui

#

but that aside, going from 14 to ~1 ms cpu time is already a 14x reduction in cost

earnest remnant
#

use elvui + plater and remember to setup update rate to as low as possible in plater and details for maximum results, trust

vestal wren
#

plater scripts make plater performance even worse

coral ibex
#

i need the details meter to update every 0.05 seconds bro

#

trust me

vestal wren
#

there are like stealthi mentioned ways to work around certain issues

#

by setting different refresh rates

#

or the use of another plater plugin you need to install seperately to make the addon usable on certain raids on m+ pulls

earnest remnant
#

"lower" in this case makes everything worse, would not recommend to set details and plater to 0.05 update intervals

vestal wren
#

oh sorry, i mean higher refresh cycles

#

hiding details during combat is also a performance increase

earnest remnant
#

but how do i see myself smoking the opposition if thats hidden?

vestal wren
#

thats the neat part, you don't

humble verge
#

so my alt got a r14

vestal wren
#

nice, congrats

humble verge
#

on my alt.

#

in a fucking boost run

vestal wren
#

why is that bad?

humble verge
#

because its not my main

#

😭

vestal wren
#

maybe it is because it was a boost run

#

and adds did last longer

humble verge
#

well

#

my cds skewed up

#

and so it kinda lined up at the end

#

i had 7 kb and 4 dms

vestal wren
#

but i also probably don't care enough, i am happy for good parses on my mains and alts

quasi ledge
#

Just came back to assa as sub. Do we refresh both bleeds before mark/kb? So we dont have to refresh inside window?

worldly bridge
#

i cant see these trinkets on bloodmallet are they any good ?

#

maybe i overlooked the list idk

#

oh mb only the shadowguard is missing

coral ibex
worldly bridge
#

because its a tank one idk why its there

coral ibex
#

otherwise you can refresh garrote and rupture whenever they are in pandemic

#

including during cds

quasi ledge
#

okay ty 🙂

#

And do we need to Muti after vanish? Can i do a finisher if i already have 5+ CP?

scarlet orbit
#

You follow normal rotation. So at 5+ cp you would finish

#

Sorry, fuu was talking in here that's sub

potentially still raiding norwegian

#

How are these stats? These are unbuffed. Raid and M+.

red schooner
proven cliff
#

Raid stats with a crit/haste neck over a verse/crit neck.

analog field
#

best option to sim them , but probably haste the less valued stat in raid

latent gazelle
#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

There are no "recommended stat levels" or "breakpoint of X stat" or "required" amount of any stats. This is an outdated way to think about stats and simply is not relevant to the spec. If you're looking for a quick recommendation: Agi >> Crit = Mastery >= Haste > VersatilityIt's always more accurate to simulate your own character, as stat procs from trinkets/enchants can often de-value their stat relative to others. Stats are not a rigid construct, their values change constantly in relation to each other depending on your character.

  • Signet of the Priory will require you have Mastery as your highest RATING (the actual number, not the %). Having Crit and Mastery close to one another will cause procs from Flask or Seaforium Pacemaker to cause your Signet to give you Crit. This is generally worse and will cause Signet to sim poorly.
  • Compared to each other, Deathstalker wants more Mastery/Haste than Fatebound, and Fatebound wants more Crit than Deathstalker
  • Always Always ALWAYS sim yourself through Top Gear and Droptimizer for accurate results
proven cliff
#

Yeah, I don't use Signet. I use Ritual Forge for M+ and Lily of Eternal Weave for Raid.

severe meadow
#

I did a bit of bossing on it and it was fun

waxen oyster
#

and hidden otherwise

vestal wren
#

i think details is distracting

#

because you focus on something with many factors out of your control

#

e.g. for subtlety, critical strikes and random procs play a central role in how high you are on the damage meter in the opener

#

tanking can have a HUGE impact on your output on multiple fights, where tanks can noticeably reduce your output

humble verge
#

ok, can someone tell me how youre almost a 720 dk doing less than 5m overall

#

youre just pressing obliterate, aoe obliterate, breath or whatever

#

i actually saw him once use breath

#

on 2 mobs

that both had 50% hp left

I have faith in midnight to finally put the restealth shit to rest

#

But I know in my heart that those idiots are just going to bitch about improved garrote

thorn thorn
#

My 1% REEEEEEEEEE KrabsREE

waxen oyster
#

1%

#

doesnt even play highest simming race

#

that i dont understand

#

Like if you gonna pretend to minmax

#

then play some shit like belf or nelf

#

really makes you think

nova kelp
#

"MAH RESTEALF!!!!!!"
meanwhile: 50% uptime

balmy condor
#

Guys I saw they remove stealth stuff but improved garrote still exist, so night elf best race for m+ again?

waxen oyster
#

why do people who say that shit

#

forget orcs just have a stat steroid

#

that juices your cds even more

humble verge
#

ok

#

just to understand lfg now

#

is "note" just

#

"tip to join my key"

balmy condor

But also if I’m not doing raid single target my spec is dogshit

It's not fair the other dps use their CDs on cooldown and do much more dps when I'm a victim just waiting for my OTP (one true pull) so I can show them just how much dps I can do

guys if you are maghar orc unfortunately u are a victim of no aura no rizz im so sorry

#

brought to u by the dwarf association

main bridge
#

gear looks terrible on small races and you're talking about aura mjlol

prime hull
#

is there anything kinda niche but useful i can dinar? maybe araz forge for some fights (deathstalker?) or something for m+? not playing sub/outlaw so idk if there is anything useful i can get for sin i already have pretty good gear

static glacier
#

Heck even for raid tbh, the uptime is going to be super high deep into reclears while ascension loses value as fights get shorter relative to dawn thread

nova kelp
#

get outlaw gear and be an apm gooner while the xpac winds down

static glacier
#

Dinar-wise you’re probably getting araz if you want it as an option / care for sub 2x on use

#

Maaaaaaybe

#

Just maybe

prime hull
#

nah i really dont like current sub

static glacier
#

It’s dimmy ring

#

If all you care for is sin m+

prime hull
#

i mostly just care sin raid

static glacier
#

Defensive value + massive haste

prime hull
#

but i have nothing to spend dinars on

static glacier
#

Sin m+ is relatively much more haste hungry after all

prime hull
#

yeah i guess i could get one for keys

static glacier
#

For raid I think you’re pretty much bis’d out

#

You could always get a lily for short fights

prime hull
#

araz isnt useful for deathstalker over prism on the fights we play that i guess

static glacier
#

Only ds fights are soulbinder and soul hunters

nova kelp
#

we play deathstalker on fightS?

#

lol I only played DS on shunters

static glacier
#

Soulbinder is a legitimate case for araz, but I’m fairly sure if you care about overall dmg and not super useful dmg you’d just run prism anyway for the aoe

nova kelp
#

not for my group hey

#

the only adds that exist are the ones in the middle

static glacier
#

Soul hunters idk tbh, depends on timers

nova kelp
#

the 2 that pop from the tubes along the way are instantly evaporated by 2 monks and their lightning fingers

static glacier
#

Prog’d it as sub so no comment

prime hull
#

yeah im perma blue parse on soulbinder due to ww monks and evokers hehe

nova kelp
#

honestly, if a GOOD ww exists in your raid soulbinder is a FB + spatter fight

static glacier
#

Probably more to do with sv sucking dick than anything else though

i both respect and fear anyone who is playing survival this tier

#

haughty flicker
#

no i couldnt care less about outlaw players

static glacier
#

It’s that the black arrow button is giga broken

#

They took a sv ability that they robbed from wc3 and gave it to bm 😭😂

#

All things considered I’m fairly sure sv is actually middle of the pack assuming equal skill

severe meadow
#

Just also better melee to bring, no?

signal ridge
severe meadow
#

Like idk when I’d want a sv hunter over a DK

severe meadow
waxen oyster
#

is any melee worse rn

severe meadow
#

On a vibe level probably ret

split veldt
#

should i use myth forge trinket over myth lily for keys?

#

someone said lily doesnt do slice sims well

waxen oyster
#

and bm is basically melee

#

isnt prism better than both

split veldt
#

dont have one

waxen oyster
#

skill issue shoulda used dinar on

#

but i mean sin isnt a 1.5min spec in keys

#

so lily is less value there

severe meadow
#

Forge is better in m+ over Lily I’d imagine

split veldt
#

lily better in raid still?

waxen oyster
#

if fb

split veldt
#

ye

waxen oyster
#

yeah i mean you want a trinket for every use

#

dinar prio should be prism

split veldt
#

even a heroic prism?

waxen oyster
#

Well no i meant mythic obvs

split veldt
#

well im only 4/8

#

i pug mythic xD

waxen oyster
#

mythic frac is easier

#

than mythic araz

severe meadow
#

Well Fract is easier than Araz imo

#

And his opinion

split veldt
#

good, we extended it for next week, it's a pug community run

#

so hopefully next week

waxen oyster
#

extending first 4

#

what the helly

severe meadow
#

Lmao

waxen oyster
#

Yeah idk once you clear araz

#

frac is free

#

its sh that is an actual boss

split veldt
#

they want to do hunters and fract lol, idk, not my run, i just show up

severe meadow
#

If they have brain they do Fract first

split veldt
#

yeah they are

severe meadow
#

Better vault if you can’t clear hunters

split veldt
#

truth

#

need me some booties

severe meadow
#

Since you’d get hunters and Fract

#

You’d need a kill for the dinar boots unfortunately

waxen oyster
#

just vault them

#

natty

#

it actually feels so weird to be done with gearing already

severe meadow
#

Yeah, I kinda just raid log at this point

#

Since we’re just slamming dimmy prog

waxen oyster
#

I could get

#

priory neck

#

or db ring for sub

#

thats it lmfao

severe meadow
#

I could use neck from king

waxen oyster
#

could make double lens for sub

severe meadow
#

I didn’t win it when it dropped

waxen oyster
#

minor gain

severe meadow
#

I did get the dagger tho

waxen oyster
#

king neck an upgrade for you?

severe meadow
#

I think slightly

waxen oyster
#

i lucked out

#

got the streets one in vault

#

last week

severe meadow
#

Most stuff is just marginal at this point

waxen oyster
#

yee

#

i have nothing to dinar

severe meadow
#

I had normal hunter boots

#

And even that to mythic was only .5% xd

waxen oyster
#

i bought forge

#

if i want to double on use as sub

#

i could have been unethical

#

and had lootcouncil give me it

severe meadow
#

Just be on loot council like me

waxen oyster
#

i get decent stuff with it

#

i got prism from lc 3x

#

across difficulties

severe meadow
#

Our DK got prism over me

#

Then I got it from vault

waxen oyster
#

Yeah i got our only mythic prism drop

severe meadow
#

Out drops in general was kinda ass

#

We only saw 1-2 antennas

waxen oyster
#

i think whispyr’s assa simc profile for bis

severe meadow
#

1 prism

waxen oyster
#

still sims like 20k more than me

#

for some reas

severe meadow
#

Only 1 leather boot from hunters between heroic and mythic

waxen oyster
#

our final kill we had double leather drop

severe meadow
#

Had Mail Drop like 7-8 times

waxen oyster
#

with only one left

#

think cloth is our down bad one

severe meadow
#

Yeah speaking on that

#

I don’t think we’ve even seen cloth

humble verge
#

you guys didnt get the first dropped leather pair?

#

smh

severe meadow
#

Our first drop was from a random reclear like last week

#

There’s no shot we reclear now since we’re on dimmy

humble verge
#

we did 1 reclear

#

after getting to dimmy

#

but because we were down 2 of the main healers for dim prog

#

iirc

#

also one of the tanks

severe meadow
#

King was a bit frustrating for us

#

Multiple roster changes

humble verge
#

frustrating

#

only 270 pulls

waxen oyster
#

yeah

#

love when we kill

#

on my one bad pull

humble verge
#

oh

#

im glad i got to play assa on forge tho

#

after 5 reclears as sub

waxen oyster
#

reminds me how i got a 4 our first sh kill

severe meadow
#

Which is crazy because we only saw p3 like 25 times, maybe

humble verge
#

thats normal tho

#

most wipes are p1 anyways

severe meadow
#

I was so bored of ghosts

#

How many pulls did dimmy take for y’all?

humble verge
#

317

#

the day before the kill

#

back to back to back 10% p3

humble verge
#

but then again

#

a lot of these pulls were before turboboost

#

turboboost basically changed so i could go assa

#

and made just the fight better id say

#

this is pretty much when turboboost hit

slim copper
#

this fight looks so dang chaotic guys

coral ibex
#

yea over half of our pulls were before turbo boost and i was on sub

thorn thorn
#

Not quite what I meant

I need a funny one

Fok Conditions Post-Buff
Fan of Knives as a generator to replace ambush/mutilate:

  • Baseline 3+ targets, -1 if talented into momentum of despair and thrown precision, +1 if talented into vicious venoms, +1 if talented into blindside. (Generally 5 with raid build, 3 with Bleed m+, 2 with Hybrid m+)
    Fan of Knives with Clear the Witnesses Up:
  • Baseline 2+ targets, -1 if lingering darkness is up or you aren't talented into vicious venoms. With Vicious Venoms casting during lingering darkness is dps neutral.
    Fan of Knives with Darkest Night Up:
  • Only on 2+ targets, or without Vicious Venoms talented. This is also a very very minor optimization

The most important to remember is the generator rules, clear the witnesses and darkest night optimizations can be effectively ignored as they are not meaningful DPS improvements

if you don't gain a DM cast it is a dps loss

Hello everyone! Could someone advise me if its worth getting hero track raid items if I don't plan to do any mythic raid on the character or should I just spend all 9 dinars on m+ gear when I end up getting resil 12s (not there yet)

a 717 prism is sometimes equal to a 730 lily, you should check with a sim

otherwise just buy lily + pace

how about soul hunter boots?

i was more thinking about those since there aren't any m+ equivalents

coral ibex
#

sure

Boots for sure and then as bleed said, prism Vs lily and pace Vs antenna

sounds good, thanks for the input!

#

For assassin on nexus, I am using prism trinket and I am using loom trinket with it, should I be using araz trinket with prism so that I can be max stats during burn phase? or do you think it's better to just have the prism + loom trinket instead, don't think simming can do it unless you can

spice surge
#

You can have max stacks on the burn phase regardless

coral ibex
#

use 9 stacks at 1:30

#

you will have 18 for the burn at 4:30

I checked Soulhunter Logs today, some people play FB cleave

everyonece in a while, the cooldown of my DM is desynched from my KB... my DM comes up while my KB still has 15 seconds on cd. Fatebound single target build. Am i fucking up my rotation somewhere?

grim jay

tierset sometimes works too well or not at all

naive quail
#

o thats fun... so far its only on training dummy, does this happen in raid as well?

prime hull
#

yes

#

but it can be beneficial

naive quail
#

do i just hold DM for KB to come up? or send the DM anyway

prime hull
#

if you have netherprism trinket you can hold KB for DM and send on 1 minute cadence

#

often it lets you get an extra DM in the fight in

#

not so useful on last 2 bosses but for first 6 quite nice when it procs

#

you just have to be aware of the bug and not mindlessly send KB on cd

naive quail
#

sounds good, thank you

tawny geyser

ok you are casting envenom 16% more but have 50% less spatter thats pretty bad

Hey, quick question if I may?
I geared for Sub Rogue, but I feel like I need to change my secondaries to play Sin, given that I am having a clunky time with Sub.

Overall, which % of the secondaries I should aim at?

Picture is my current stats as Sin, and Raidbot does say that I lose 2m dmg from going to Sub to Sin.
I just want an overall idea of the % to aim for, so I can adapt, I do not do high end content, just want to feel like the swap doesn't absolute neuter my DPS.

golden loom
balmy condor
#

2m?

#

link the sims

inner glade
#

One second!

haughty flicker
#

that sounds wild

#

lmao

tawny geyser
balmy condor
#

709 is pretty undergeared, losing 2 mil is unheard of, but you like..... don't have 2 mil to lose in the first place

#

so it's doubly confusing

haughty flicker

maybe using a sword offhand

are your talents ok?

It is a huge drop last time I checked sims. And it has been a while, I may have spoken a wrong number because I only remember the first digit as Sub being 4 and as Sin being 2. kekk

#

I'm on que on raidbot, give me a sec.

balmy condor
#

you can just send the link to the sims you ran

inner glade
#

I don't have those no longer! Don't really save them, just check and close tabs.

balmy condor
#

the button on the top right

balmy condor

inner glade
#

Oh, I don't have a login on Raidbot either. hmm

balmy condor
#

okay, we're simming single target with an m+ build

inner glade
#

You are talking with a very casual player here.

balmy condor
inner glade
#

Both are the M+ builds.

balmy condor
#

and not a good build either, but that's an aside

#

oh

#

well yeh

#

that'll do it

#

assa m+ builds do no single target

haughty flicker
#

sub m+ build is almost the exact same as their st build

#

so 1m makes a lot more sense ye

golden loom
inner glade
balmy condor
#

deathstalker is awful single target, and then you're taking like 6 talents points on assa that do zero single target

golden loom
inner glade
#

Tbqh, I use that as Sub, I forgot to change to get the quick sims. lol

golden loom
#

Or wait

#

Static charge is the vers one

inner glade
#

Ye.

golden loom
#

Thought it was the damage bolts one, nevermind

balmy condor
#

gear seems fine though

#

just low ilvl

#

just how the balance of the specs is in m+ currently

storm hedge
#

Sub does a lot of single target in it's m+ build. If you sim dungeon slice it's gonna be equal

inner glade
#

Yeah, I don't really do content beyond T11 Delves, truth be told.
But Sin has been much better for Ky'vesa ?? and I feel like if I just swap to a spec that does not feel clunky, I can kill her faster.

static glacier
#

seems it was talents after all

#

bro picked sin m+

#

talents

golden loom
#

Yeah I think you deffo wanna get away from Sub for that, shadowdance dropping threat and forcing her onto brann is annoying

static glacier
#

and expected anything other than dogshit kekw

midnight atlas
#

sin is way better for kyveza tru

static glacier
#

as in pre-season kyveza

golden loom
#

Would recommend just playing the fatebound single target raid build for kyveza tho

static glacier
#

all 3 specs are fine for it though

#

is there a leaderboard for kill timers on it? I wonder how fast people are downing it now

inner glade
#

Yeeah, but the overall stats are fine? Because I was thinking about swapping the stats of my necklace and I do have rings for Crit/Mast/Haste, drop some Vers, or just craft new Rings with Crit Mast, tbqh.

I remember it being around 9 mins before

golden loom
haughty flicker
#

you only take damage during the succ

static glacier
haughty flicker
#

and you just eat a potion

static glacier
#

but the others were even easier

haughty flicker
#

maybe outlaw i didnt try it

static glacier
#

outlaw NEVER would die if you fucked up potion pickups

haughty flicker
#

but sub was about the same

#

plus the added benefit of her running off to brann

#

very fun

golden loom
#

Idk I did 10 pulls on sub and got mad at shadowdance and never did her again

inner glade
#

My best was lower than 40% as Sin, I just can't do the burst sequence right for all the CDs as Sub on her due mechanic pacing.

midnight atlas
#

i popped off with sub burst and then died to a shadow because i was busy getting all gcds in dance. so i swapped sin

haughty flicker
#

ye your damage is kinda irrelevant on that fight, you just focus on mechanics and live

#

it took me like 11 minutes or some bullshit to kill her

#

nowadays you could just focus only during cds and afk entirely doing mechanics the rest of the time and still kill faster than that

golden loom
#

Also the thing that made me fully leave was when I vanished in cds and she despawned garf

haughty flicker
#

ye that was fun

#

fortunately it didnt happen to me too often

inner glade
#

I do appreciate the answers, btw! 😄

midnight atlas
#

for me daggers were the most annoying mech.
sometimes it was so clear where to run, and sometimes they would spawn on top of me blocking everything

#

and cheat death barely worked because if you drop below 10% or so she executes you

haughty flicker
#

yeah i just ran elu for the dr on evasion

#

to help with the succ

#

probably not needed anymore though

static glacier
#

I personally did it as sin for two reasons; I tried outlaw initially but it reset the boss one pull so I tilted and I didn't have house of cards for sub so I went sin

#

but im fairly confident assuming playing the actual spec being no issue it would be OL > sub>= sin

haughty flicker
#

i'd agree week one but i think now the spec you choose genuinely does not matter in even the slightest way

#

its just avoid the one shots

#

still a hard fight though

#

i hope kyveza is the standard for nemesis fights going forward

#

but i doubt that will happen

inner glade
#

As much as I like her fight, I prefer something that is a bit more toned down. At least lenient to the fact you can make a mistake or two tops.

#

Zekvir still feels the best fight, even if it was janky.

haughty flicker
#

i did not like zekvir

#

felt like he just stat checked me

#

but i also kind of cheated, i did it when brann was insanely overtuned and he just murdered the fight in like 2 minutes

severe meadow
#

Zekvir was just

#

Did Brann feel like kicking or not

#

for me

golden loom
#

Does brann currently just have a chance to 1 hit kyveza tho

#

With hatarang

#

Like in regular delves he just randomly drops a nuke

haughty flicker
#

ive been told it doesnt do the bugged damage in ??

#

its very funny seeing him just one shot a pack though

Do you need platform/add damage? Sub. Otherwise assass is much more boss dam

ripe bobcat
#

we just started prog. so i am not sure.

buoyant herald
#

Shouldn’t be a platform dps issue at this stage though with turbo boost and damage buff for raid

balmy condor
#

there is no damage issue on dimi at all

#

on prog it's normal to have to hold every phase except the last, and the last phase is already getting the majority of it skipped

#

the spec you pick is irrelevant for a first kill with this much gear

#

it's entirely just a mechanics check and making sure people are hitting the right things

play whatever you're most comfortable with

Newb question guys. Let's say tank pulls a pack of 10 mobs in a mythic. What is the most efficient way to get rupture and garrote onto all 10 mobs using Carnage? Just hit the primary over and over again with garrote / rupture? Is there a limit to how many mobs I can dot with garrote and rupture or is it just how many times I can apply both in 12 secs?

I know I am leaving something on the table. I have an ilvl of 722 and I haven't been able to burst over 24mill on the first pull in Floodgate and I haven't hit over 7mill overall dmg on any mythic. Really need someone to look at my logs and see wtf I'm doing wrong.

cunning needle
#

dont overcomplicate and think dots

#

the bulk of your damage is from caustic in aoe

#

like you need want to have every single mob dotted up in a pack

#

you just need to have the min required to do your rotation

#

because sure you have IC where your ruptures spread for 12 seconds

#

but if youre just spreading ruptures and garrotes over th ose 12 seconds

#

youre not doing any evenom/caustic splatter

#

which also means youre not consuming your DN

dapper parcel
#

Fair. CT and Spatter are usually my top two dmg numbers, but I still can't figure out why my dmg is so low. Some of it I know is low mob pulls by tanks, but I feel like I'm missing something big in my rotation. Thnx for the response.

yeah low mob pull count can be a factor as well
