Dawg there’s no way I just asked you if CT is doing 60% of your dps and you have to pull up logs
so @balmy condor care to explain why youve been sandbagging m+ sims?
this is a bait
What
It is optimized
whispyr are u botting on maple rn
whispyr ragebait crashout time
lil scoundrel
outlaw is fake rogue
No I’m afking my bowmaster in sauna to 270
okay then
Botting would ruin the game
@balmy condor does mastery gain any more value from the pinned stuff?
yeah so it gains more but not enough basically?
Yea and any gains it had were already being simmed
That's the most important question
Isn't it like 4am for Whispyr more like how is your morning
He is currently visiting family in Europe
Ahhh so he's in a real time zone
Gif very accurate
I was wondering how much it does on general level, not that it would do 60% 😄 never looked CT part of that pull
Good misinfo
Ct + internal is like 6-8% in a pull
You’d lose around 3-4% at most
what if when the kingsbane and i have envenom but the rupture so the garrote and deadly poison but instead of deathmark so the mutilate into ambush and crimson tempest?
can i delete someone elses message
why do you take internal bleeding over canny strikes in m+? seems counterproductive
ct spreads iot
So what's the ideal build then? Or is that a nuanced and loaded question?
figured it was a pure pvp talent ngl
Uber
where are the creatures in this image
how am i supposed to enjoy my uber image without him
Perfectopm
Also CT is considered a bleed aswell btw
due to sloppy coding
is this whatr you drive btw
ye
The builds in the faq or wowhead
bear
Also need to rewatch the vid again
But
Is it that you don't fok cause of CT or is it like
I remember you saying not to change anythign case of the bugs but i could be wrong and stupid and silly
They a need a mount rushmore
Tyty
You don’t play differently
Aight got it
Remembered you saying smth like it but ill keep it in mind
Why don't blizzard just fix the bugs
are they stupid ????
Or rather
ALL of them
i think if they fixed every bug spec balance would just invert overnight it would be so funny
some get massive gains some get massive losses some balance out
I had to re-record a part with the sims because if I didn’t do a disclaimer that I’m just showing how silly IB could be, people would go insane and just l make up some new rotation
People do that anyway
That is the problem yes
Like
Imagine if one day, they just hire some zoomers and do like
a fucking huge massive bug patch
and each class has like
20+ notes onbugfixes
and then next update bricks it all again and it doesnt matter
Also i love how the thumbnails show the avarage emotions of an assa rogue
yeah cause its so easy to fix a billion bugs
If they didn't layoff all their employees it would be (this is a joke)
But some of it is very sloppy
25 years of spaghetti
I think they're better off grinding it back into dough and going back to the pasta extruder
does secondary poison work with autoattacks?
mmmm spaghetti..
Auto attacks are single target so it should work yeah
Tbh
The videos are sometimes more exciting than the balance patches themselves lol
they are the rushmores
Tag ur self, I'm HELP
Rn I'm probably
idk
ok nothing i say sounds good
i can't say im super hard lmao
Nothing wrong with a little metapod signature move
why not
whispyr one more q: in the latest pin u say "You should NOT be mindlessly spamming CT as you will still run out of energy."
My autocorrect needs to be taken out back
so I am confused as you also said you should CT no matter the TTD
Can I shorthand ambush to ‘bush
I think he's asleep (he needs it), but I think he's saying it's always worth it to CT and apply bleeds even if the adds die after 1 tick
You can use ur freewill to say whatever you want.
true but doesnt the latest pin say that you shoudnt spam CT?
Fair bit of nuance since you probably don’t want to keep CTing on dragons adds
I think?
Spam CT is referring to defaulting to using CT in AoE over fan after everything has DoTs, cause there were target counts or bugs in Sim apl or something that said that was good a while ago and now it's wrong
F O U R
I think early in the season the sims wanted to spam CT over envenom for some reason
Now we just use it when things don't have DoTs and we aren't capped on CP
Is that leftover spaghetti from when it was a finisher
Some pulls just have a ton of mobs so it feels like we're spamming it, but we're using it intentionally
Probably
the only reason u dont mindless spam ct in this instance is cause u will run out of energy, it does technically do more damage than fan i believe in the current state due to the bug bc its gaining extra dam from mastery
Idk I'm not a TC
Yes
It's also gaining extra dam from things that buff our finishers
Cause lmao
They never unchecked that box
Thrown precision only helps so much
idk its really not something to overthink, press ct if need to spread bleed to any mob missing bleeds if available no matter ttd, use 5 cps+ when u get them from the CT, if no targets to spread bleed just fan(altho technically rn if u have spare energy pressing CT here might be a bit better than fok edit: i would listen to ppl who know more tho like eleem)
Guesstimating how many CTs you can get away with kinda sucks though
yeah and its small gain that doesnt matter for most people for a thing thats gonna get bug fixed in the near future(prolly)
Probably only worth at the end of pulls before RP/long runs
Thrown precision is also a lot better than it looks fwiw. If your Fok crits it doesnt turn the 30% chance you have to apply a poison into a 100% chance
You still have the 30% chance (or whatever you have with envenom+-talents) but you proc them one extra time ontop of that
So with dragon tempered blades a single fok hit can apply 4 poisons
I love summoning TCs with slightly wrong info
eleem the goat
Thanks eleem
(it's been that way forever btw, I just think the tooltip isn't very clear)
I didn't know it worked like that at all
stupid questions, Deathmark buff existing Garrote and ruptures? Or do I need to re apply during that window? Also I end up in situation where the Apex Talent energy re turn is at 80% but Im at full CP for whatever reason, do keep the rotation as normal? I feel like when that happens I never actually cycle back to the beginning of the buff
Existing
im new to this, so just noticign stuff that isn't in the guide or super clear (alteast to me)
It's fine. Languaged is a flawed construct.
if apex at 80, let if fall off unless ur gonna overcap energy due to it
DM buffs ur bleed regardless of when you apply it
even at full CP? Just auto?
So when should we fan over CT? given that CT seems to be the best anyway
And yeah, apex means you just sit there for a few globals sometimes
Thats what I was thinking, but didn't seem right.
isn't it CT just used to spread the dots, then FOK and envenom as normal?
Like lucky said, don't do it during DM though, just overcap ur apex stacks it's fine you have the energy
When everything has DoTs
fan over CT after everything has bleeds, and just forget any mention of a CT bug and u will live a happy rogue life with no meaningful difference in ur damage
It's more energy efficient and generates more CP
CT eats through energy like candy
It's nuts
also the animation is very bad
in terms of your character doing it
like they just spin slightly
^ didn't lucky say CT is better than fok if you have energy ?
Yeah but you never have that much energy, it's a hypothetical situation
It deals more damage but not much iirc
its like an occasional situation in which you might throw out 1-2 extra instead for minor gain if ur like hella energy flush
Also it might not even be more damage overall, like eleem said, the fan buff talents are really good. The damage compared to fan is good, but more poison apps and more cp muddied the calculations
You do CT to spread bleeds and FoK when everythign has a bleed cause of the energy cost
yes the basic rotation is very clear, that's not a problem. I wanted to clarify the comments regarding CT better than FoK even if everything has bleeds
CT is very global efficient, but very energy inefficient and we care about energy a lot so just don't spam it and don't worry about dumb hypothetical situations that we think up cause we have too much time on our hands

Why is Plater no longer recommended?
If there is a >0.5% upgrade, I would need to know 100%
I used Platynator, but I could not figure out how to make the nameplates small and thin out of combat, and thick in combat
Use FoK over CT when all bleeds have been spread
I'd also wanna know
Cause i use plater atm
Yo is this new tech?

nop
It just had a lot of issues during pre patch and midnight release
Been buggy, poorly optimized and little development
If it's an upgrade, it's not 0.5%, it's like 0.0001%, it's not real
Hmmm
plater hass been updatedd
I might swap over then, plater seems fine for me atm
Dude
EVERY SINGLE TIME
i see your pfp
i see something completly diffrent
Plater is fine
doesn't really matter
its way better than when midnight came out
and i have to do a double take
Use whatever you want, but with how slow it was to update, we can’t recommend it
'we'
Secret ravenholt moderator
But anyone know if you can make nameplates width/height different in combat vs out of combat with platynator?
Is it wrong that when the loa of misinfo says something is bad, I wanna do it? Is dis de powa of de loa?
Been here since 2016, I am the very walls of this foundation
ytou should
filthy sub player
i've ""apparently"" been here since the third of april
not foundation
But idk what the original date was
I played assa before your mother played your father
at what point do we not use our second KB before DM comes ready again? like RP or smthing happens and KB is ready and DM is like on 40 sec cd, do we just send or..? specific question i suppose
yeah blue guy
You'd send KB
ther's no reason waiting 40 seconds and losing damage
I've been here since 2021.... that sounds wrong cause I know I was here mid bfa (2018/19), I wonder if I left and rejoined for some reason
At least i'd assume so
Because idk why youd wait 40 seconds to cast DM + KB when you can instead cast KB now and then wait 20 seconds later instead to line up KB and DM
anyone has the APL number on the maximum time required to hold KB for DM?
You mean 60 seconds later
idk, just watched a casualaddict video and he did hold the KB for 40 seconds
real

I only hold KB if it's like 15-20 seconds before dm is gonna come up
At least it wasn't zeros
he said send kb even in 30
dont like that guy, xD
Nah zeros a g
Can I spitball numbers at him from 1-60 and see if it changes
I assume this is for a specific timing in the dungeon
no one did a meekaura to track implacable ?
I'm not familiar enough with the dungeons and pulls to think about holding CDs yet (except if there's a target that will probably live my CDs, I hold if the pack is at like 30%)
This is why classes with 1 min cd and nothing else are fucking bis
Just press it on cooldown

They might look like weakauras, but you cant do the same thing with it that weakauras did
Dark archangel void weaver my beloved
Weakerauras
@vital flicker isn't your latest experiment a 1% gain when casting only CT and no fok?
you can track buff with it using UNIT_SPELLCAST_SUCCEEDED
we litweally put lua in the bin so gouge could walk
might not work later
Didn't whispyr have that in the video and then specifically say not to change the rota based on it
but it seems like you can tracck implacable tho
Yes to the dummy
Use FoK over CT when all bleeds have been spread
anyone figure out a npcs in range addon yet?
I’m not sure what type of content you’re doing where you wish to minmax a hypothetical that might not occur very often
random q: what keys are you pushing?
14 adds tap ct what 5-6 times?
Highest i've done is a 17
and to answer the question
Use FoK over CT when all bleeds have been spread
before the
"Well insert rogue player does x on high key so i wont listem"
That's also a sim without thrown precision
I'm not a TC so I don't even know how many targets it's for
CT is strong, so yeah I'm sure you can find edge cases like this, when fan is 1% weaker cause ur not taking its most powerful upgrade
what about on your rogue :)
u will time more keys paying attention to the mobs than u would worrying about the ct thing
10 
But
he did say pushing keys
not pushing rogue keys

anyone else still doing less dps as assa then sub in 14-17 keys
not sure what im doing wrong
Could always post a log review
I am trying to figure out if there is ~1% dps gain. AFAIK, potentially there is but it will be fixed soon apparently so not worth any rotation change
P sure people would be able to help with any questions and whatnot
Use FoK over CT when all bleeds have been spread
okay srue next timed key ill send one
Vendeten I appreciate the same fifth message
but I am trying to figure out something else
not played assa for like 2 years so must be some mistakes
kk all good
will stop with the sillyness
also which dung do we want wound posion, and do we replcae deadly or amplyifying
I can see that for 90% players that 1% dps gain (if there is such thing) probably wouldn't matter
got a 14 key here acutally from earlier https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/MbCfjFAZhRTwDH19?fight=1&type=damage-done
in 20s you arent missing the timer because of that kinda amount either, 99% of keys are execution problems
It's not 1% in any realistic scenario for any realistic purpose. If you're in m+ or any sustained AoE, ur taking thrown precision and fan is better. If ur in small cleave or are prioritizing priority damage and not taking thrown precision, fan is more CP for more Envenoms so fan is better even if it's less AoE pad.
If you'd want people to look at it faster iirc there's a seperate channels for log reviews
not sure on my stats, cause was geared for sub, swappped a ring and consumes (ss is full consumes)
hmm i dont see log channel
Stats don’t really matter
its in threads
ye just thought u want less mastery more crit^
Threads but we usually quickly look at them
I can’t rn because I’m not home
in threads?
What do you want with this information
post it here, assa doesn't have a log thread
That's a no DTB build
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/MbCfjFAZhRTwDH19?fight=1&type=damage-done heres a random one from earlier
Once again, I'm not a TC so I don't really know what's going on in that sim
im giga new to assa so could easily be some rotation shit
per frowntain, it seems than in high count pulls, even with thrown precision, FoK falls behind
let me take a look
ty mate
But yeah, no DTB means thrown precision procs half as many poisons so it's worse?
How many targets
But why are we simming these builds in niche scenarios without any descriptions like this?
People like to cook with random builds
10
well they were figuring out optimizations around FoK
Why do you think this is bad
It looks like someone was trying to cook the worst possible builds for FoK for memes and you got baited by it
ehm this is from a discussion of frowntain in the tc channel lol
if you have no idea no worries
1 minute sim 
lmao I tagged frowntain here in case anyone else knew the answer already
The whole log is really normal
Numbers are really normal
If you don't do giga pulls etc you won't have 200k average especially in spire
You have almost the same dmg as zerocool had in a 15
So you’re saying he can get into the “pumpers only” groups? 😂
he has to put a pumpy note
hitting em with the "sup and hey bunch of 90 parses in 16-17s last season offspec"
wow pos 13 invite
wow
If only they knew that m+ parses aren't real
score isnt even real 
m+ parse 😭
But transmog is, and that's the real game
Is that still a thing
okay nice
ty mate
just always felt like im doing loads more on sub
ig since this a 14 probably lower
big pulls really help
are you telling dad jokes when joining groups?
is sudden demise actually better for 12 and under?
in heavy AOE, is it better to first spread to all targets bleeds with CT than DM+KB or Garrote+Rup 1 target -> DM+KB than spread bleeds with CT?
No time for that, I'm getting my ass carried. Got 90 yesterday morning and was already carried in Normal raids + 1m10
yeah makes sense, so log seemed fine then, like couldnt notice anything much rotation wise
was thniking this

get your repertoire ready
I did have to afk mid raid be yesterday because baby woke up
And between me (223 ilvl) and my gf (272) I was the best candidate for that xD
SD is good in weekly keys where shit explodes
when flying daggers or secondary poisoning?
I did a few 12s yesterday and prio targets are thanos’d
new whisp video starts
"i have to rant a little bit"
oh, so its a day that ends with a Y
oh it keeps working
not too bad dc'd on the last add phased died once or twice like a goober
lack of free cheap shots and finnicky setups for assa
easy a tier with some tuning stuff
grab a hunter everytime you run a key to make up for schlub tanks etc
why do you need a hunter if you have tricks 
You dont, screw hunters

you need at least 5 globals to ball on assassin
so you wont have aggro and it doesnt matter 
theyve got death strike for a reason
proper resource management 
i refuse to read, when is assas execute?
Bro
You could legit search it up in less time than it takes to get an answer
but it's 35%
i belive
no... i want them to know it was me

yes its 30% increased bleed/nature/weapon poison damage under 35% hp
so its a little less than 30% overall since it doesn't boost melee swings
Time to clock out of work and clock in to declined full expired 
I read this whole chain of questions and the answer is you fok over ct if all bleeds are spread, you arent energy saturated, and your priority target is more important than aoe padding.
If none of those conditions are met, ala algethar first pull, many pit of saron pulls, etc. Then u ct away
The higher a key gets, the more important envenoming on cd becomes
Could you please check my log? I did very little damage and I don't know what I did wrong.
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/gnAG2jCWdzqJF93D?fight=48&type=damage-done
you wont have that problem in eu
i clock out in 13 mins
oh and it worked but again, 14 skyreach died on a healer but now a windrunner 13
yeah 🙂
Its far too hard to judge pulls but on bosses like corewrite youre really dropping envenoms likr crazy and used poisoned knife 3 times. You must not have good uptime so youre losing dashing procs

why the fuck is the puzzle box bis when its a mastery trinket, and mastery is 4th for stat prio?


what data scraping ai generated garbage website told you that
wowhead?
counting agility
see
ok so we're counting agility
are you familiar with this sign
i dont think they are
Hey man, third grade was hard.
imagine if we helped new people instead of mocking them 
and if we're just blindly copying guides
you didn't even do a good job at that
the cheat sheet tells you to take plume
know what, screw you guys. someone asks a question, you just decide to be assholes. whatever. Hope it makes you feel good.
mastery might be lower prio but having a little bit of it and then suddenly gaining a lot of it is very good for the build
ok i'll match your energy
if I am the only rogue and need to run atrophic poison which dps poison do I prefer amplifying or deadly?
why the fuck can't you sim yourself
plus it lines up nicely with deathmark timing and is a mainstat trinket

iirc you shouldnt have amplifying as an option unless you're running the talent that lets you put on 2 lethal and 2 non-lethl
You can have 2 lethal (aka dps) poisons and 2 non-lethal (aka utility) poisons with dragon tempered blades
TY
You dont need to choose between them
unless raid sucks
I have the dragon tempered blade talent, but I guess if I am running only one lethal I can drop that talent
there would be no reason to not be running 2 lethal and 2 nonlethal with that
there aren't many scenarios currently where you dont run 2 lethal
atrophic - nonlethal
the slowing one - nonlethal
amplifying - lethal
deadly - lethal
im pretty sure every build except the meme SD build takes dtb
Why would you only be running 1 lethal when you have the talent that allows you to apply 2?
Just put on deadly+amplifying+crippling+atrophic
You dont need to sacrifice anything
hello so do we now CT over FOK in all AOE?
Is there a Scarm that frequents in here? just played with one in a pug and the name looks super familiar
just search it ?
Why would I do that when I can clog up the chat instead
I think the current general recommentation is still CT until all bleeds are applied and then FOK, as it is stated in the guide
ok ty
I was running double lethal, but my raid lead said he wanted the DR poison
you can have 2+2
and you end up running atro amp deadly and cripling
if I am not messing up the names
honestly half the time running crippling poison is frost mage status
I am not losing dmg
yeah most of the time you should not put crippling up
yeah..you open on a berserker in maisara
or hit the ones that are kinda gathered
and they're slowed
just not?
you are losing dmg
why would you lose dmg?
letal poison are the one doing dmg
UR RIGHT BUT I don’t wanna buy expa
why would you lose dmg for a utility one?
I replied to the wrong message but enjoy sunshine
trust u don't want crippling poison ever
you have a talent that does dmg based on your poisons
Lethal dose stack
mm okay gonna check the notes
!poisons
You should always be using poisons you talent into, which means the following:
Lethals:
- Deadly always + Amplifying if you're talented into it with DTB, Instant only as a final option
Non-Lethals: - Atrophic/Numbing, crippling if you're talented into DTB
Wound poison damage in PvE is atrocious and should never be used
i mean dont put cripling so you don't slow mobs for the first 3 sec?
Thank you
I don't understand the gain from it
if it's just kingsbane's ramp
pretty sure crippling doesn't affect it being non lethal etc
I am pretty sure it does
don't hit if you wanna hlpe the gather
or jump on the mobs that are gathered
like your tank picks up 2-3 mobs and then another 2-3 mobs
go on the second ones
should not get affected by crippling
legit not loosing dmg by not using crippling
i mean we have tricks to hit packs and start spreading early
I mean no one uses tricks on assa
when you can get blackjack
its a great tool
not the point
Aye speak for urself
you can help make better gather
you kinda can't though
ofc
yeah ok I am out
you can legit gain 10 sec sometimes more
depend on routes ofc
but its a tool
on pug probably useless i agree tho
people are optimising the shit out of their weekly 10s
You should have that up yes, its not conflicting with your lethal poisons at all
yeah I just swapped from sub to assa to try it out
I am just dumb thanks for clarifying things for me
wdym?
That if you go to hit a mob it hits you usually before you hit it so you die even with tricks
you either have to fok or something
or do shenanigans with evasion
proxy aggro isn't transferred with tricks
the funny thing is in raid where a mage casts the first spell and you are close to boss
and slams you
If u want to pull for ur tank u can just throwing knife
It does tho
tested ? datamined ? where can i see that info ?
I mean, Lethal Dose says it should only be per lethal poison
yeah but it affect CT
while it shouldnt
so i'm not against the idea that cripplling affects it
Yea, but CT is not getting an increase from non-lethal poisons
i just don't have that info from anywhere
I mean, it could definitely be that it does, but I don't think that it does
well when tanks are pulling everything and they have a que of mobs on their ass, isnt tricks helpful to keep generating aggro to them so healers dont get it when healing them?
guys not taking blackjack on 12.0.5. for 99% of the keys is insane
yeah sin feels good but it's more prone to dying to stuff
it is but as assa you generate very little aggro in that phase
yeah for sure
idk i don’t think blackjack really matters outside title level keys
blackjack isn’t the aoe talent
it’s the DR talent
in title level you probably don't blackjack though
it does matter once blind is aaoe
The big mobs are also oftenly blind immune
or do they do reduced dmg maybe ?
They do reduced dmg
And have reduced healing
but assa does not need tricks I think we do 0 dmg on the opening
depends on your tank
Its enough to take aggro
I haven't ever taken aggro
so its useful for those
yeah so my take is give max bleed duration on deathmark
so assa can help with gather ?_?
it's like a whole global behind sub rogue right now
opener being blades w/ max combos > dance > sec tec
!tricks
cause not crippling
why would you not use crippling
not get the frost affix
yeha, weirdos saying dumb shit again lol
but maybe its losing damage
ah okay
we got people doing 12's talking about you can't use crippling
idk
smh
"yeha dont use crippling cus then the tank cant gather mobs" while like EVERY SINGLE SPEC IN THE GAME has some automatic aoe slow
lol
hell most tanks slow mobs with their aoe spamm skills themself
makes sense

do we use wound on masaira and if so isntead of what poison
no
never use wound
kk
wound bad as assa
and last thing is secondary posioning better than FLYING DAGGERS
I mean it is pretty useful in these dungeons
blackjack can give you the healing reduction when you need it
oopps caps
but dropping deadly is shit
ye ig its fine to use on sub
yee\
on sub and outlaw, the weapon poison is like 1% dmg and a flavor thing
what bout this
on assa, the weapon poison is a part of the toolkit and talents exists around them
wowhead guide has the right talents
and like, if flying dagger was better, it would be taken instead
kk
Anyone have the numbers on how strong each raid buff is for Assa in M+?
gotta remember that like
ye secondary poisoning isnt really big
but flying daggers isnt really big aswell cus FoK does no dmg aswell
FoK is to generate CP so you can use the abilitys that actually do dmg
AND in AoE situations you will also generate CP trought Crimson Tempest while spreading bleeds, which ofc means that you dont use FoK at that time
FoK still as generator if everyone is bleeding in AoE/Cleave or stick with CT?
yes you use FoK when everything that should have a bleed has them
CT costs a good chunk more energy
Does that change if we dont talented thrown precision?
I feel like I'm struggling on the Dragons. Between adds that die way too fast, and the spread of the Dragons. Do you all multi dot the two? Do you tunnel? Do you even worry about the adds?
anyone know where to find the midnight icon map? for the boss.
Why does poison bomb not show on sim
Oh its under envenom
How are there more poison bombs than there are envenoms

For organized groups, use NSRT and follow the guide.
For pugs... probably use raid warning addons
just ask for assist and then drop the world markers for each set
its only 5 symbols (in heroic)
we used square for the T symbol but otherwise there's a world marker for each symbol

wound only on magisters terrance
for that one voidwalker moob
im not against crippling but with weaker tanks
you might be doing yourself a grief
I am not saying that you shouldn't FoK, nor do I endorse that. I was just looking at sims and saw something weird. As far as I know we just play exactly the same, but yes there are specific circumstances in the sims that say only CT is better. but those are sims and not reality
Think the internal bleedings are still cleaving for the full cp value
Instead of around the 3 cp damage it should be doing
yeah in high target sims it says it is doing approximately 11% of your damage, but I haven't seen numbers like that in game. the internal bleeding number seeming too high was the main reason I brought it up at all
Hello sorry to disturb but it seems im missing something, seeing my dps offends me in keys. Im playing 14/15 with this opener on a big pack: garrot, fok, rupture, garrot, ct till 5 cp, env, trinket (box), DM, KB, env, ct till 5 cp and all targets affected, env, fok, env ... am i right ?
Dps goes up to 300k max 🙁
it depends on what the pull is and how fast mobs die
but what im personally doing (not sure if its correct) is im sending cds on prio mob and then ct to bleed other mobs
I would be surprised if you could get all of that opener in and full value from DM+KB even in a 14/15. I would probably cut that envenom before Box+KB+DM
i'll try this out on 5 dumies
but even on 14s there are prio mobs that die in 15 seconds so kb is barely full time
just send ST opener on prio mob, then CT into envenom
from wowhead
ye i know wowhead does this, thats a good reminder tho ty ! I've just seen casual doing CT before sending cds
ct before KB is either going to overcap combo points or you will need to spend precious globals on spending them when you don't have much time before the prio mob dies
A guildy just told me he thinks sin is one of the worst specs with low player skill, and one of the ones that benefits the most from high player skill.

I dot both dragons in the opener (use shadowstep) and hold some energy for adds where i just spam ct. Your dmg will rise when the dragons are close to each other in the last phase. If you have a blood dk yout spatter dmg will also go up but we dont have one.
uh-oh maybe I should switch specs
Looooooooool
Idk don't get me wrong I like Sin but like dude just mostly interpreting multi dotting being the worst thing ever in dungeons where things don't live long enough.
dont watch casual, he's playing r1 keys with r1 players. on your 14s/15s your people are blowing the mobs up in seconds
if you are too dumb to spread bleeds you do 0 damage
i mean watch him, but dont do everything he does without knowing why he does it
Yeah but like... Not knowing that keeping bleeds up and that multi dotting is good isn't even poor player skill is just being brain dead.
anyone else having their combo points dissapear under their nameplate with blizzards UI
happens to me at least once a day
if the mobs are nicely spaced out for a deathgrip ring of peace play
it's a w goin in the bag
ehp...?
effective hp
time to swap to elusiveness
rogue is one of the more squishy classes because the deffensives are more specific
Not playing Elusiveness is a crime

unless you are taking death damage less frequently than once per 6 minutes
then just stay cheat
i mean, elusivness is very often VERY overrated
changing talents
cus people take it on stuff where feint allready works kinda often
yea you really only take it if you need evasion to be a real defensive cd
deathstalker gaming 
allright nah, thats a bad joke, nobody should suffer with deahtstalker
20 DR for 15 cd is kinda nice
Better than a cheat that save you from a death that rarely happens cuz "nothing left to avoid it"
My sentence isn't clear but you got the vibe
wdym
you trigger CD on cd
you skilled it, you gotta use it
greed for that 1 more mutilate, its worth it, trust
I agree
speaking of changing talents, i've noticed some people taking 1/2 in Fatal Concotion instead of Secondary Poisoning - what's the logic for that?
tbf if you lived the rest of the fight, yes!
there is honestly no real logic
those talents are all in the "its whatever" pool, so its basically vibes based picks
Does internal bleeding from rupture spreads with CT ?
check pins 🙂
WoW is a very polished game with no bugs
right
boys i’m 3300 and I don’t get invited, it’s impossible to pug now sigh
no bugs, lots of unintended features
Be the chad party leader
True
Assassination uses no other macros aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial
#showtooltip Deathmark
/cast Deathmark
/use Light's Potential
```You **cannot** macro puzzle box or kingsbane to deathmark, as they are both on the GCD

Was looking in the FAQ wanted to find out do we use Amp poision over deadly
You use the talent that gives you 2 lethal
So you use both
!talents
Honestly I think the only reason I get invited as Sub is because tanks absolutely love permanent Tricks of the Trade. 😂
It's in the FAQs
Yea, it’s just like, do I want to sit here for an hour+ signing up to groups or
play a different class
I gotta either get lucky or use my own key etc
and I WAS playing sub but at a point assi prio is just better
Yeah really depends on group needs imo. If you're running with like a devourer I wouldn't worry about prio DPS. But if you're running like warrior+havoc then for sure the prio damage is huge.
Just had a devourer do 80k overall in a +14
was pretty hype for me actually
Yea yea true
are you guys @balmy condor actually in contact with blizzard devs? do devs actually look into these community driven bug infos / tables / discords ... whatsoever
how attack damage scale ability damage with two weapons? is it (AD1(attack damag) + AD2)/2?
Main hand
thx
at what point do I switch full time to assassination in raid? is it ahead of sub now
It’s good on all the fights realistically
how does the opener change in ST (dragons fight example) without razorwire, do we still reapply imp garrote in the last seconds of the 6's window of IMP garrote? or cast it only once on opener, dm > kb > vanish imp garrote?
if raid thinks you're the damage check
probably run sub?_?
but if it's more balanced probably your choice
Will blinds AOE upgrade next week still have the same low cooldown?
even in m+ getting up with 0 cds fuckin suuuuuuuuuucks rn
right now i am full time outlul
Imo sub lines up better for damage amps
But we have like 2
And one of them is kinda ass
yeah gear is easier to get if you're getting slotted every week for raid on sin though
like
way easier
So after reading the pin, CT applies the current internal bleeding, or a fresh one to all CT targets?
sub just feels superior
roll for a the not contested very hotly crit neck literally falls off a boss within 2 hours every week
ended up with a really nice stat profile for assa probs gonna do 14-15s with this instead of sub
its just less of a apm headache button mash
you're full bis
can you help me be bis?
deathroll constantly
You need a new trinket pal
is this bis
oh i have solarflare on 6/6 forgor :y
that's actual bis yeah
im howrny
how come your crit is so low at 278 tho
by having around 130 vers in various pieces of his equipment

seems like thats daily
ofc
yeah i want the 5% crit or whatever from the neck to drop adds even faster
next tuesday is .5 patch so probably myth alnseer trink > hero crown neck > myth sal neck probs
Hi folks 🙂 back with some more probably stupid questions. Bleeds spread from your deathmark target with CT aren't buffed on the secondary targets right? Also when opening in aoe do you want to spread bleeds first or get deathmark up after applying bleeds to primary target?
What UI is that? That looks great
Narcissus addon
Is there a better way to track the Implacable buff? When I use cooldown manager it is really wonky and doesn’t show me my stacks all the time
you don't spread the double bleed deathmark creates but CT will spread improved garrote to new targets etc
Narcissus
opener is setting up your deathmark target and then spreading bleeds to the max + kb
sometimes your target will die before you get an envenom out etc
dope dope dope. thank you!
its good for knowing if u dont have enchants etc.
quick napkin opener is garrote > get a 5cp rupture up > refresh garrote while imp up
then depending on who you ask it's envenom / trinket or reverse into dm > kb
i like max cps > trinket > envenom > dm > kb but im not feeling strong about openers lol

hey guyys why it says plater is not recommended? Platy better on the fps?
why isnt plater recommended 😮
color coding isn't supported rn
is my guess..the guy who did it quit right?
like you can color code but it's not out of the box working like platy
Oh, havent even realized that, anyone got any good profile for platynator?
You cannot colour code much anymore
have had it since midnight dropped
The only thing you can do it is with blizzard default things
ye it still works but profiles etc idk
oh ok i guess the mages having white hp and the prio mobs having blue hp is just a hallucination
Which is lieutenant mobs / mobs with mana / mobs without mana
iirc plater was just giga gapped since beta
well idk, but for me big mobs and casters are color coded
Thats the only things you can colour based on
performance, features, etc.
well isn't that basically the only things that were color coded before
prio/casters/shitters
and with the addonpocalypse a lot of people took the chance to change
plater has better pvp support in bg blitz only reason i made a platynator clone
yea i have noticed some red guys casting spells
can see friendly healthbars but percentages for enemies
And you cant fix that until blizzard does

!guide
holy closege
You don’t need a guide just ask @spice spire for any questions you have
I’m down to gaslight
its ok
i just learned it all
did speerdun
it was very hard
If you don't want to lean too hard on the bugged ct just press fok
This will probably get fixed this or next week
does somebody have the energy to check my log from first boss myth? i sucked again and would be happy about some advise
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/tgPcdBraL2Hxk4yT?fight=10&type=damage-done&source=40
None of those has poison on their names so you use poisoned knife to build cp
Yw
i have a question on how to unethical parse on sin rogue but i'll wait til next week
just gonna deathmark on opener
or maybe not idk 
Jist farm dps on adds
Vanish garrote rup ct and let sudden demise explode your dps to 100 parse
Did the adds die so fast that you only needed to press fok once?
Does the range on caustic spatter get bigger if its on a big enemy
no
So its useless on some bosses 
i tried to ct a bit but it died fast yes
there's just a secondary range check around you if the hitbox is big
there used to be a pin about it
Wdym by this exactly
I personally hide myself inside the boss' hit box so my raid leader don't see me not switching to adds
Only relevant to giga big hitboxes enemies
if the enemy hitbox is larger than the caustic spatter range, there is a secondary range check within range of you and the target
Oh so there's an aoe on u too literally
no
Oh only on big enemy
thats only if the first range check doesn't work
and its only in the intersection between your radius and the boss
Oh
2 vanishes in a 6.5 min boss fight. Could’ve had 3. That’s an extra 30 seconds of uber buffed garrote from DM and improved
the guy highlighted blue in that picture doesn't get hit
only the one highlighted yellow
The caustic area is the green area
is there any value to targetswap for envenom on paladins?
Is the boss hitbox the yellow or the red
Both

true. thats definetly something i need to care about more
When you click the boss, the yellow area is the circle around it
everything in white gets hit
except on gally nothing could be in the red circle
so secondary range check happens
Ok
its because caustic measures from center of the target's hitbox initially
what if you make the entire screen white
does it hit everything then
As long as you are zoomed into 1st person, then yes
You have top boss damage, even on a cleave build. If the adds are dying so quickly that your bleeds last less than the full duration, then just go ST pure and parse on the boss lol
question is, did i do stuff wrong
so if CT is like whitelisted for everything, has anyone tried simming with CT on single target during lust
The bugs have been reported
Vanish usage definitely. You lost damage on that. I can’t see uptimes on my phone, so idk about other things
Not sure why lust would change anything, but it’s too expensive to spam in aoe and definitely not worth in single target
da energy regen was my thinking cuz it's so expensive
shenanigans with DS was my thought
making it better than mutilate
deeper strategems
Oh
Deeper is the least of the worries
That’s 2 talents of 5%
When implac is giving it 20
And mastery is giving it 40
Im confused about the rotation in high keys with this new CT theory crafting stuff. With 8-10+ mob pulls is CT > FoK?
You don’t change anything
In 14+ I do the same rotation, CT until everything is spread and FoK after. After all your 4pc gives bonus damage to FoK anyways
at what target count does CT out dmg FoK?
Is spamming CT to get bleeds on everything while ignoring Envenom and overcapping combo points ever the play?
Maybe if your daggers are broken and can't cast envenom
Or ur not talented into spatter and there's no priority target and there's 100 mobs
That’s a crazy thought lol maybe on a level 2 key with a sudden demise build? Lmfao but no that’s not something that should be done
Hello, wowhead guy here. Agility Crit and Haste is better than Mastery point for point. That being said, you want to buff your cooldowns, since we’re a burst spec, and puzzle box lines up with 2 min cds and gives the most stats for that. It’s also worth noting that if something were to give for example 800 mastery, versus something else only giving 300 agility, it’s likely the mastery is just better
@balmy condor I beat the dragons padder with ethical build LETS FUCKING GO
No

Ez
Is there a better way to track my apex stacks (implacable)? Its not showing every other 'reset' of the cycle
Its bugged
!implac
Implacable is bugged in Blizzard's Cooldown Manager, there is no way to "fix" it.
Until blizzard fixes it, you just have to either count your envenoms or glance at your buff bar if you're trying to be optimal. Ignoring it when it bugs is <1% loss.
yeah its super annoying
Gotta look manually at your buffs lol
w/e XD
I just drop envenom for implac whenever I'm feeling energy starved regardless of stacks
Is it always correct to stop at 80 implac stacks for the energy buff? Or there’s situations in which you pool them for?
Only drop 80 if you’re not going to overcap on energy by doing so. Generally don’t want to drop it during DM/KB burst since you’re trying to build the 50 stacks asap
There's technically a way to track it with arcui creating a bar that mimics the way implac behaves
(Meaning hitting envenom and doing all the damage you can during DM is generally better) but should think about pooling just before dm is off cd so you don’t have that problem of being starved
Ahhh okay that makes sense ty, fairly new to the spec I appreciate the advice.
Isn't there a way to lock buffs in place? Like making every implacable buff be at the same buff spot ever?
I think that's only for buffs that show on raid frames and implacable doesnt
Hi all, I am just coming back to wow after a break. It looks like fatebound is better to play but slightly less dps unless you arent really good at Deathstalker?
fatebound is just better like 90% of the time, it is less funnel but more overall and ST
i miss dragonflight S3 deathstalker
cursed
Ahhh okay, thank you! I picked up deathstalker before checking here lol I will give another look at my talents!
Nah swapping target with mark is ultra curse, we dont miss that
in heavy AOE, is it better to first spread to all targets bleeds with CT than DM+KB or Garrote+Rup 1 target -> DM+KB than spread bleeds with CT?
it depends on how quickly the pack will die
Unless it is a +16 your target won't live long enough for you to apply bleed before burst
Anyone got an advice on CDs for Vorasius. Kingsbane comes off CD at a strange timing when the adds are spawning. Do you just send it regardless and go help on adds?
you dont go hit adds
Just double garrote+rupture then you can ct after the burst
Let people farming logs kill the adds
you never go hit adds unless 1. your damage is actually required to beat the damage check on the adds or 2. the adds are stacked on the boss
Fair, not sure my raid agrees with that, but I get your point
or 3. you got fixated twice and don't have vanish up
cheers for the replies
