!macros

humble verge
#

!tea

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

weary stump
#

Drink yo tea twin

golden loom
#

okay only 3 pulls not bad

weary stump
#

That is pretty good

#

Any clue how could I sim for Dimensius? Since I'm not playing anything else atm, I just wanna put the best gear/gems for that specific boss.

scarlet orbit
#

You could lower the antenna catch rate a bit but other then that its 1 target patchwork

weary stump
#

Iirc you lower antenna to 40% or so

broken thicket
#

is this a new bug ? (dimensius) till now the "bug" reduction was like 30s not 1.5 is this new or a boss thing

spice surge
#

Ye sometimes the bug can proc twice

scarlet orbit
#

Just proc what do you mean

weary stump
#

You simply will deathmark into existence

oblique wasp
#

hello - please if I am min maxing the vanish - deathmark combination, I want to press vanish (Master Assassin sauce) when Kingsbane is finishing in Deathmark, to maximize crit for the largest tick of kingsbane yes?

oblique wasp
#

? how so? master assassin is +20% crit for 12 seconds from breaking stealth - I want those +20% when I am geting largest KB hit no?

spice surge
#

Ideally you shouldnt have master assassin and kingsbane in the same build

oblique wasp
#

and I want to link Deathmark + Vanish so they get CDs ready +- around same time

#

oh

spice surge
#

The raid build does not have master assassin and the m+ build generally does not have kingsbane

oblique wasp
#

oh, alright sorry I was thinking in the past probably

#

thank you

#

Didn’t even get back to 2nd platform, was rough

scarlet orbit
#

We actually did some progress today nearly got to p3. But we bleed so many players

severe meadow
#

Bleeding players while making prog is a little crazy

scarlet orbit
#

Alot of real life changes. New works, kids etc.

severe meadow
#

Fair enough, I plan on retiring soon and focusing on school

#

Also just not a huge fan of how midnight is looking

#

On top of literally none of my friends plan on playing it rn

scarlet orbit
#

This season feels somehow really bad. Maybe its because there is less hype for the new expansions then usual. Alot of the usual guys i play with dont play anymore

humble verge
#

well, its the end of the expansion, most people dont last that long tbf

#

this is my first full expac since legion atleast

#

only because ive had a lot of fun raiding

nova kelp
#

I think there's a lot of tentative feelings about.

Some expecting hell on earth and are already massive detractors. Probably likely to hate everything based on the smallest grievance.

Some being giga apologists who will defend the most brain-dead decisions at their own peril.

The rest either don't care and are playing tarkov or care but are too busy overthinking to play.

Alongside the fact that the xpac is winding down just waiting for the next... It happens

coral ibex
#

nobody wants to log in

#

if ur not still progging or in reclears

#

you're either a collector or ur logged out

#

im 10000% done with m+ this season

nova kelp
#

To be fair... We had fated seasons 3 times through. And a lot of the player base stuck around to play through them.

But everyone still bitched and moaned.

So they've gone back to the ole tried and failed method of letting the xpac just slowly die off. Because that's what people said they wanted.

coral ibex
#

i dont really think fated is a good idea

#

and ive said how i hate turbo boost multiple times before

thorn thorn
nova kelp
#

I wasn't a huge fan PERSONALLY because a lot of my friends vanish in fated as we've finished everything. BUTTTTTT that's a super specific standpoint in a small community of people.

If you're at high end it's probably the same for all of us

But in terms of the general community fated is good and creates a big continuation in engagement across the greater group

thorn thorn
#

I liked df fated

#

Very easy season to get weapon tmogs

nova kelp
#

Yeah it's engagement for engagement sake. Which has merit. So long as it's not filled with reasons to FORCE you to stick around imo

thorn thorn
#

Turbo boost very good for casual players

nova kelp
#

Either way imo those versions of winding down an xpac is better than the slow death method

thorn thorn
#

Being a serious player in a casual guild is a special kind of torture

#

Since it means aotc took way longer than it really should have corncerned

nova kelp
#

Man one of my favourite guilds I've ever been with were SERIOUS heroic tier proggers. Like running out of time to get aotc lol.

They were TERRIBLE. But god I loved raiding with them.

thorn thorn
#

Oh god I couldnt do that

haughty flicker
thorn thorn
#

This one got aotc the week lemix started

haughty flicker
#

i joined an aotc guild then pugged aotc faster every tier

thorn thorn
#

It took us way too long to get aotc

#

1 day a week raiding so its kinda whatever

#

But it was a little torture for me

nova kelp
#

It was actually entertaining playing along those guys. Nothing felt like it got old.

#

Very big fish in a little pond feelings though

thorn thorn
#

Pretty much

#

I dont hate playing with casual players, I love my guild

#

But I would be lieing if I said it wasnt torture a bit when we were on day 3 of dimmy and still hadnt seen p3 on heroic

coral ibex
#

are casuals grinding out infinite gilded?

thorn thorn
#

No but they def need the help of dinars

#

And the ilvl increase

coral ibex
#

they get to buy heroic dinar items for what purpose

#

to clear what content

thorn thorn
#

Heroic

#

And M+

nova kelp
#

Lol... 2 people in my guild have infinite delver

#

Screw gilded

#

Lol

coral ibex
#

who is still progging aotc

thorn thorn
#

More people than you would expect actually

nova kelp
#

There's people who are still pushing for aotc. Bet

thorn thorn
#

100% there are a ton of people still doing it

nova kelp
#

It's a big world out there

coral ibex
#

do those people even do +6 keys to get gilded

thorn thorn
#

Some casuals are truly awful at the game

coral ibex
#

who are we talking about here

nova kelp
#

Probably not

thorn thorn
#

these are the people who can barely do a 7

coral ibex
#

so we're griefing the entire end of the season for a tiny subset of players who are so bad that they are still progging aotc

thorn thorn
#

and the people on reddit who consider 10s real content

thorn thorn
coral ibex
#

im pretty sure these people just quit

#

and dont keep progging aotc

nova kelp
#

The guild I was in back then. Those guys. Like half of them were too scared to DO a mythic + dungeon.

#

That's for the big boys

coral ibex
#

they do LFR/normal and delves

thorn thorn
#

They are the majority

nova kelp
#

That's most players yeah

thorn thorn
#

The actual majority of the playerbase does benefit from turbo boost

nova kelp
#

There's like a thousand of them for every you

thorn thorn
#

Majority by percent

coral ibex
#

like i have a whole guild of casual friends who think heroic is tuned too hard and just do casual normals and they hate turbo boost because it just feels like extra chores

#

for no real gain

thorn thorn
#

Those are the real tiny group

coral ibex
#

"dude lets do a drunk +4"

#

type shit

#

these people dont need gear they need god

#

to clear aotc

thorn thorn
#

Thats all casual players

humble verge
thorn thorn
#

I have been in a ton of casual guilds and they have each been their own unique and tortured experience

#

And they all would 100% need what little turbo boost gives them to actually do vault keys and aotc

#

Cuz they need god

#

And probably more

#

Some of them are genuinely the worst players I have ever seen, no cappy

thorn thorn
#

Trying to do keys on my alts has been actual hell since turbo boost started

#

The demons came out of hiding garf_sit

nova kelp
#

Rofl yeah. But also. Be thankful they exist

#

A game with no casuals suffers.

#

Talk to any fighting game fan or someone who's into destiny

thorn thorn
#

Destiny despairge

humble verge
#

majority of subs are casuals

thorn thorn
humble verge
#

yeah i know

#

but i was jorking it so

thorn thorn
humble verge
#

if you consider this, 12000 guilds have killed dim on hc and gotten curve

#

thats around mehhh 240k people that are a bit over casual

#

they like to actually do some raiding

#

16,3k guilds cleared normal ~327k

#

those are just known numbers

#

but out of those, there are atleast the double amount of people that just play wow to play wow

#

or else i dont think we would be where we are

#

there are an abundance of casuals who just play

#

and then you have the top 0.1% who are there to clear the expansion

#

or more so 0.01%

thorn thorn
humble verge
#

no

thorn thorn
#

M+ers are easier to track then the rest

humble verge
#

casuals dont even m+

#

most REAL casuals just do delves

#

since they either 1 - have played the game so long and play solo, so they just delve for gear

#

or 2 - have tried m+ but the experience didnt fit them and they are doing something else

#

i can tell you probably not even half of the wow community has touched m+

#

most keys are run by the same people over and over again

#

sure, theres been done almost 30m keys

#

but you have A LOT of keypushers

#

doing 10+ runs a day

nova kelp
#

My missus just finished the campaign. And if you listen to her talk about it story mode raids are LITERALLY the best thing ever in wow

humble verge
#

yeah

#

story mode has really made raiding accessible to casuals

#

because theres barely anything they need to do

#

but they can consider themselves a raider

drifting cloud
#

isnt story mode just 1 boss to finish the campaign?

fallow canopy
#

Yup

humble verge
#

yes

nova kelp
#

Yep

humble verge
#

but it just being there is a great addition to the game

strong dock
#

will spattering off dimmy hit the adds in p1

balmy condor
#

if you stand on the adds, yes

#

if you don't stand on the adds, no

humble verge
#

oh god, looking back at one of my first casual raid guilds

strong dock
drifting cloud
#

damn salad bar is at 2k kills already

humble verge
#

turboboost is killing him

#

thats basically what was holding a lot of guilds back ig

drifting cloud
#

eh I think its just because getting to 6/8 is alot easier

humble verge
#

thats also true

drifting cloud
#

even if you compare to just last tier, where last 2 bosses were easier

#

but the middle 3 were harder

#

and since you wipe alot in p1 even for guilds that need 250-300 wipes you get there decently fast time spent in combat wise atleast

maiden sierra
humble verge
#

unironically

nova kelp
#

That certainly is a take

humble verge
#

hes kinda right

#

if you are an active raider, and radi 3 times a week

nova kelp
#

I guess it depends how you define "casual"

humble verge
#

like

#

casual wow player

#

it doesnt fit

#

but if youre a casual raider

#

yeah 500+ is casual as CE

maiden sierra
#

casual maybe clears mythic on the last week of the tier at best

humble verge
#

i would consider my guild casual, even tho we did spend 8h on saladbar one sunday...

maiden sierra
#

semi hardcore i say is top 800

nova kelp
#

Like there's a "friend" in my guild... He doesn't raid myth. He kinda gets carried in heroic. But he's more "hard core" than any of the ce Bois are.

Like he eventually completes EVERYTHING

#

I can't even imagine playing as much as he does. And I've been playing since vanilla beta

#

I do ce. He does EVERYTHING else... Imo I'm a causal next to him

#

And I have like 1200 mounts lol

#

He still absolutely dwarfs me in the game as a whole

drifting cloud
#

if turbo boost and raid renowns are here to stay you can definetly start to notice the gaps in skill even at similar wrs even more

#

like guild at wr 1k doing 1k+ wipes per tier is just crazy to me

#

if blizz didnt give you extra ilvl and 15% dmg buff wouldn you even be able to clear in 6months

#

yeah sure we used to have slightly more nerfs to bosses, but they were almost always mostly mechanical, the hp nerfs were usually 5-10%, now you get way more dmg from renown and turboboost and you still get the mechanical nerfs

nova kelp
#

I mean. That's always been a reality though right. Like at the end of that logical math is the world where were still progging the same bosses as the world first guys fought.

#

And in that world there's like 12 ce guilds

drifting cloud
#

no, like I said you would always get the mechanical nerfs

#

but a measly 2 months ago nexus king would have been under 200 kills and now its at 2k

#

thats alot of the boss dieing for 8 weeks

humble verge
nova kelp
#

I mean sure. But they can only nerf mechanics so far until it's just heroic. So they find another method for large scale tuning not bound to the encounter

#

It's the same measurement through another method

#

Sometimes you find a different boat for the channel. Sometimes you dig the channel wider.

drifting cloud
#

now imagine being in a guild that got to nexus king same time as turbo boost came out and still needing 700 wipes for last 2

nova kelp
#

Your analysis isn't wrong though. You're right in that a lot of guilds essentially RELY on ongoing nerfs and large scale upward tuning to manage it.

#

But it's better than all those players getting burnt out I guess from a development pov

#

If we really cared. Wed start looking at achievement dates

drifting cloud
#

dont misunderstand me, overall I think the nerfs are almost always a good thing

#

I just think they might be slightly too much

#

and by nerfs im counting all the systems togethers, not just actual boss nerfs

#

our power gains included

nova kelp
#

Maybe... But also that's part of the development side of thinking when it comes to the "shoulds" they're aiming for in the coming add-on cull

nova kelp
#

100 ways to skin a cat or whatever

#

Arguably they picked a silly way... But it's a way lol

#

I agree with you though
Sorry wasn't meaning to sound like I disagree

drifting cloud
#

its just a new thing in tww, the gap didnt use to be so big

#

even in Nerubar honestly it wasnt that big

#

but they threw the nerf hammer on queen before she had even 100 kills so hard she didnt even need nerfs after lol

nova kelp
#

That's true with nerubar yeah. I was actually concerned my guild was Gona struggle in bug palace

#

But by the time we rocked along at like wr 900 she was a shadow of her former self

drifting cloud
#

obv im biased and was blessed to be in the guild I was

#

just not a fan if this is how every tier is going to look from now on

severe meadow
#

God I hope 1.0 isn't bad

nova kelp
#

Same

#

Big same

severe meadow
#

I feel like it's just

#

going to be a regular ass patch + wipe

#

but idk

nova kelp
#

I'm worried. But hopefully it delivers

#

It needs to

severe meadow
#

it being on Steam now, yeah

#

it's gotta deliver

drifting cloud
severe meadow
#

but servers are going to be FRIED this weekend

nova kelp
#

Every time I open an fps I'm just worried about cheating lol

drifting cloud
#

reasonable its definetly too widespread in some titles

#

and once you get that feeling that you have a 50% chance of just wasting your time its hard to shake it

#

like I might aswell play card games I can only blame myself and rng there!

nova kelp
#

I played destiny 2 for the LONGEST time. And we always knew cheats were kinda common. But fuck me.

Over time I had just sorta accepted that I was average at BEST in d2 PvP. On occasion I was good. But normally going 1:1 kinda deal

One day though. I log into disc and see my friends OUTRIGHT cheating. Watching them though changed my perspective for good.

Literally every round. They would look through walls at someone and t bag at them. And without fail. That person would look and t bag back

Every. Single. Time.

Suddenly my 1:1 didn't feel so bad...

tacit hedge
#

Is prisim + antenna the best trink combo for 4 pc fatebound?

nova kelp
#

Yezzir

fallow canopy
tacit hedge
#

And do use only when we have vanish or on DM?

fallow canopy
#

Ideally every 3 min before you dm so you buff the coin flips, some people macro it to vanish since you basically use vanish also every 3 min

#

You can also use it every dm but it is a tiny bit worse

nova kelp
#

This kinda depends. Using on vanish is "best". But sometimes kill timers won't allow for you to maximise like that. Sometimes it's better to on DM. It's hard to give a general answer for CERTAIN. But like default is on vanish

fallow canopy

Hey guys noob question. I haven't played retail in 2 months. Whats the trinket combo should I go for in both raids and m+ ? I currently have heroic lily and antena. ( Myth track raid trinkets aren't accessible to me ) Sorry for random question

#

Hero prism/ araz or myth lily + myth pacemaker ?

severe meadow
#

prism / antenna is the usual go to

Hey all! New sin rogue here. Is there any recommended videos for rotations/tips/tricks? I’ve watched a few and they’ve been pretty helpful but my damage is abysmal in m+. I’m 690 and only doing 2.5-3m dps. Following Hekili is slightly worse… on dummy’s I can burst to 10mil but in dungeons it’s 7-8 maybe once. I’m just looking to see what’s average at that 690 ilvl and what resources helped you the most

do i refresh rupture before my big cds regardless of its remaining duration so i dont have to refresh it during dm kb combo? i feel like if i dont do it, it falls of during cds. downside is, i refresh not being in pandemic

coral ibex
#

it only matters that you dont press rupture during cold blood

#

otherwise you can refresh it during pandemic at any time during cds

agile wedge
#

thanks

#

also on my solo kbs i feel like i cant really get that much envenoms out. i pool a few secs, but regardless of that, my tea charges are mostly used at that point due to auto use. is this the nature of things or can i optimize here?

coral ibex
#

just how it goes

haughty flicker
#

as long as you have envenom going the first few seconds thats what matters, not being able to envenom near the end of it isnt an issue

#

by that point its already stacked up

how are you rupture spreading as sub

crude wigeon

only on high hp mobs

usually

humble verge

hm ok

crude wigeon

or in downtime

If u play nado

U can flag nado and stack rupture

and is it bp on 5+ targets instead of 8+ now???

#

Is there a way to see damage by phase using lorrgs or do I have to click individual logs and go through them

coral ibex
#

lorrgs is separated by phase

hot jay
#

I see the phase separation lines but I'm wanting to see damage totals per phase

coral ibex
#

thats not what lorrgs is for

hot jay
#

I didn't really say it was, I was just wondering if it also had that feature

#

I swapped to assa instead of sub for our dim prog because our adds melt into the floor without the extra sub cleave however I wanted to directly compare assa and sub p3 outputs

royal lantern
#

assa is more boss dmg

#

cus assa does more boss dmg in general rn

hot jay
#

That's what I thought but I wanted to actually see some numbers validating it in p3 only

royal lantern
#

? im pretty sure assa is more boss dmg in all phases lol

hot jay
#

I figure the execute damage allows sin to be ahead but sub should do more in the 100% amp

royal lantern
#

(not like as if it matters at this point)

#

yeha ofc sub does more in the amp

coral ibex
#

assa is indeed more damage in all phases

hot jay
#

Right, the nature of that amp is the only reason I'm questioning it

royal lantern
#

assa loses like 2/3 of the amp because you still set your stuff up dracthyr_kek

hot jay
#

Yeah

royal lantern
#

but who cares about the amp when you do more dmg afterwards

#

its not week5 of the tier anymore

crude wigeon
#

i think people care cuz they want to speedrun p3

#

(only valid reason atp)

hot jay
#

I would have thought the amp damage had more of an impact on shortened p3 the longer the tier goes

#

Now that we are at 15% buff

coral ibex
#

yea you will feel really good wiping to mechanic issues with the boss at any percent

#

lol

#

no

#

your p3 will not be short if you are still progging dim at this point

#

your p3 will be long bc people will die to literally everything

#

the whole time

hot jay
#

Listen man, I understand that lol

coral ibex
#

bad circle placement, poor character management, eating lines

hot jay
#

P3 isnt going to just be some free burn

coral ibex
#

your damage doesn't matter at all

royal lantern
coral ibex
#

you will kill the boss when your raid learns how to pilot their characters in p3

hot jay
#

But I'm optimizing my character anyway because why not

crude wigeon
#

i think it does because people dont want to play the last gravities where you have to run against the pull

coral ibex
#

ok, you are just going to drive yourself crazy optimizing something that has no impact

hot jay
#

Uhh

coral ibex
#

by the time your raid figures out how to move in p3 it wont matter

#

you are gonna do them multiple times

crude wigeon
#

nah we got into p3 3 times and we got to 40% brah

hot jay
#

Its not rocket science, once I figure out which spec is going to do more for us in p3 I will simply be playing that

#

Im not agonizing over it

royal lantern
coral ibex
hot jay

That's all I need then

fallow canopy
#

Also fb burst in st is pretty close to sub anyway

hot jay
#

Like I'm sure it's pointless to some extent for me to think about this stuff when I'm in a guild that slow progs mythic with low raid hours

#

But I draw enjoyment from optimization

royal lantern
#

i mean yeha

#

buut its mostly just

#

if you are not in the top50% of hall of fame

#

your spec choice doesnt matter really

#

cus wipes will literally never be related to dmg

hot jay
#

I mean yeah I could be playing outlaw

#

But for me, if I choose to think that way

#

Why am I playing

royal lantern
#

but to your priest constantly dying, your mages and warlocks not target swapping, and your warriors playing Floor PoV 48sec into a fight

fallow canopy
#

Yea i getchu, optimizing is a fun minigame while everyone in your group gets the fight

hot jay
#

I technically do adopt that mentality towards m+ so I guess it's not a stretch

I dont see any point in pushing against an infinite system if I'm not going to be a top leaderboarder

#

Hello there! Im new here and was thinking of giving Rogue a chance. However i cant seem to find a proper rotation guide, do you guys know where i can find one?

balmy condor
#

!guide

maiden laurel
#

Thanks!

#

So methods guide only show opener for fatebound, does that mean that deathstalker is stronger?

balmy condor
#

method guide has openers for both

maiden laurel
#

Yeah openers but the rotation after is what i want to find

#

Like when to use trinkets, shiv etc etc

balmy condor
#

that's consistent across both hero talents

maiden laurel
#

I am a returning player from classic so im a bit slow haha

#

Ah okey

balmy condor
#

you always press shiv with cds, you always press trinkets with cds

#

maintain rupture

#

spam envenom

#

gg

maiden laurel
#

Okey, so if triniet is ready and lets say kingsbane has like 5-10 sec left. Do i wait with trinket?

runic hinge
maiden laurel
#

Then i have some practice to do, cuz i have that trinket which you can use every 20 sec. Do we use it on cd?

runic hinge
#

This season if you are using lily, you would macro it to deathmark. If you are using prism you would macro it to vanish in single target using it every other DM

#

You want to let prism build up stacks

#

If you are playing deathstalker and have 2 minute DM you wanna macro prism to that

maiden laurel
#

Aah i am fatebound

#

I can tell that i will be needing weakaura haha

runic hinge
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
runic hinge
#

I use whispyrs edit and plater

#

In single target with fatebound you wanna macro your prism to vanish

maiden laurel
#

Okey, thanks a lot man i will be practice a lot at dummies

runic hinge
maiden laurel
#

Aah okey, and we use vanish to get more powerful garrote and rupture?

balmy condor
#

no

#

you use vanish to flip an extra fatebound coin

#

you don't talent into improved garrote

#

and there is no stealth benefit to rupture

maiden laurel
#

Haha okey, i gotta do some reading i guess. I miss the good old youtube guides haha

Hey all, I got mythic soul hunters coming up tonight with my guild and I can’t seem to figure out what to do in council fights like it. Any pointers?

coral ibex
#

hit darksorrow, upkeep rupture on all 3

real pike
#

That was my strat

sleek night
#

That’s it? Just focus dark and maintain rupture? I do that and still always have pretty low dps or at least compared to the rest of the guild

#

So we’re just naturally bad at that fight then?

royal lantern
#

not really, assa is kinda good on it

sleek night
#

What is kinda the expected dps on that fight. I only have heroic to base it off of but I hit around high 6m to low 7m dps normally. A majority of my guild is hitting 10 mil though I know some of those classes have much better cleave for council fights

shy creek
#

that said the variance of dps in 3 target cleave is pretty high, its like +-2m dps or smthn

#

Heres the page for the statistics ifyou'd like to see

sleek night
#

Well at least I can hit the lower quartile lol. Is this a fight that I should be using crimson tempest on or would a more ST build be better?

runic hinge
#

I used the m+ build

sleek night
#

You use the indiscriminate carnage build for hunters?

west crown
#

doing good on SH is entirely dependent on how shit your tanks are

sleek night
#

in the way of keeping the bosses together right?

scarlet orbit
#

Yes 2 of them are tankable so they need to run after the one jumping around. If you have slow tanks your dmg will suffer because you lose uptime on them obv

naive valve
#

Wanting to actually stick with assassination for more than a handful of weeks, the one thing that feels "bad" to me is the fact that we are supposed to run out of energy/have downtime in our rotation. My brain always goes "oh im not pressing buttons therefore im not damaging therefore im playing bad". How do i get around that?

#

Is it just knowing that between bleeds/poisons/autos that yes, i am actually still dealing damage?

coral ibex
#

i would rely more on actual measurements of your damage and not how you feel

#

assa is a cd-based spec so we do more damage during cds than not

#

so damage output should feel spikey to some degree

#

with ups and downs

#

you might be more interested in other specs/classes that have flatter damage profiles, so you always feel like ur doing damage

naive valve
#

Sub's another burst spec right? Are the cd's quick enough for it to be "flatter" than sin or is it about the same?

analog field
#

sub is way worse

naive valve
#

I really really want to like rogue 🤣😂

coral ibex
#

sub is even more feast/famine than assa

analog field
#

outlaw is one of the flattest specs though

coral ibex
#

you do healer damage outside cds

sleek night
#

Sub is much higher highs and much lower lows. If you’re looking for consistent in rogue it’s outlaw. But outlaw is considered one of the most difficult classes in the game

naive valve
#

Just through sheer apm right?

coral ibex
#

it also completely collapses under forced downtime phases

#

it needs 100% uptime to realize its damage profile

naive valve
#

Outlaw doesnt have SS correct?

#

They changed to just grappling

coral ibex
#

yea only grapple

analog field
#

I would say that most specs don't do very well outside of CDs. Yeah ok they press buttons but doing 0

jaunty notch
#

hey! saw someone talking about performance issue with plater and someone else linked other nameplate addon for less lag, anyone have the name ?

sleek night
jaunty notch
#

want to see how bad plater is ruining my fps

naive valve
#

I suppose ill try to just gear and learn on assa then when i feel silly goofy ill put time into outlaw

#

This being said i tend to not go higher than AotC on dps specs bc i feel too bad/stressed about my damage to feel like id do any good in mythic

sleek night
#

How I’ve been doing assa in raids and M+ bosses is I spam abilities during cds like you’d normally want to and I just hella pace myself outside of those. The big thing is making sure you deal massive damage in cds everything else is just maintaining bleeds and using envenom when you can. If you have more 5 or more combo points don’t muti again to hit the 7 max it’s not worth the energy cost

humble verge
#

can we actually

reset bosses

Blame boomkin for not paying attention

humble verge
#

yeah

#

especially

#

when mrt and my WA tells me i pulled the boss

thorn thorn
#

ya cuz thats how you reset

#

But if boomkin hit boss or interacted with you during reset, they would get aggro

#

Or you could tricks them

#

and gaslight the raid into thinking the boomkin did it

humble verge
#

Xd?

red schooner
#

Or you just wait for the boomkin to cast wrath 10 seconds before the pulltimer, as it tradition.
