Oh I’m weird as shit

#

I know what I am

spare kayak
#

thats why we appreciate you

#

also your wisdom

#

and the pins

balmy condor
#

Dawg there’s no way I just asked you if CT is doing 60% of your dps and you have to pull up logs

feral basin
#

Imagine logging

#

Doesn't anyone just play for fun

subtle tundra
#

so @balmy condor care to explain why youve been sandbagging m+ sims?

feral basin
#

this is a bait

subtle tundra
#

the whole ct thing...

#

why are you sandbagging and not optimizing ct

balmy condor
#

It is optimized

spring zephyr
#

whispyr are u botting on maple rn

#

NEVER

spring zephyr
balmy condor
#

Botting would ruin the game

light quarry
#

@balmy condor does mastery gain any more value from the pinned stuff?

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

Yes

#

But it’s already accounted for and it’s not impactful

#

So no

light quarry
#

yeah so it gains more but not enough basically?

balmy condor
#

Yea and any gains it had were already being simmed

light quarry
#

lovely

#

Yo Whispyr a question

#

How’s your day?

jolly heath
#

That's the most important question

frosty cedar
#

Isn't it like 4am for Whispyr more like how is your morning

strange onyx
#

He is currently visiting family in Europe

feral basin
#

Ahhh so he's in a real time zone

rugged basalt
#

Gif very accurate

#

You’d lose around 3-4% at most

primal parrot
#

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?

dire flume
#

can i delete someone elses message

foggy moat
#

why do you take internal bleeding over canny strikes in m+? seems counterproductive

dire flume
#

ct spreads iot

foggy moat
#

oh

#

well then

calm grail
#

So what's the ideal build then? Or is that a nuanced and loaded question?

warm vortex
#

Whispyr made a p good vid on it

foggy moat
#

figured it was a pure pvp talent ngl

warm vortex
#

dont question it

warm vortex
# balmy condor The builds in the faq or wowhead

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

warm vortex
strange onyx
balmy condor
warm vortex
#

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

dire flume
#

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

balmy condor
#

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

warm vortex
#

People do that anyway

balmy condor
#

That is the problem yes

warm vortex
#

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

dire flume
#

and then next update bricks it all again and it doesnt matter

warm vortex
#

Also i love how the thumbnails show the avarage emotions of an assa rogue

subtle tundra
warm vortex

But some of it is very sloppy

storm forum
#

25 years of spaghetti

#

I think they're better off grinding it back into dough and going back to the pasta extruder

brave stump
#

does secondary poison work with autoattacks?

subtle tundra
#

mmmm spaghetti..

storm forum
#

Auto attacks are single target so it should work yeah

warm vortex
#

The videos are sometimes more exciting than the balance patches themselves lol

humble verge
storm forum
#

Tag ur self, I'm HELP

warm vortex
#

ok nothing i say sounds good

#

i can't say im super hard lmao

storm forum
#

Nothing wrong with a little metapod signature move

dire flume
#

why not

silent stratus
#

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."

storm forum
#

My autocorrect needs to be taken out back

silent stratus
#

so I am confused as you also said you should CT no matter the TTD

rugged basalt
#

Can I shorthand ambush to ‘bush

storm forum
storm forum
silent stratus
rugged basalt
#

Fair bit of nuance since you probably don’t want to keep CTing on dragons adds

#

I think?

storm forum
#

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

storm forum
#

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

rugged basalt
#

Is that leftover spaghetti from when it was a finisher

storm forum
#

Some pulls just have a ton of mobs so it feels like we're spamming it, but we're using it intentionally

worn geyser
storm forum
#

Idk I'm not a TC

rugged basalt
#

Yes

storm forum
#

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

worn geyser
#

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)

rugged basalt
#

Guesstimating how many CTs you can get away with kinda sucks though

worn geyser
#

yeah and its small gain that doesnt matter for most people for a thing thats gonna get bug fixed in the near future(prolly)

storm forum
#

Probably only worth at the end of pulls before RP/long runs

spice surge
#

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

storm forum
#

I love summoning TCs with slightly wrong info

worn geyser
#

eleem the goat

storm forum
#

Thanks eleem

spice surge
#

(it's been that way forever btw, I just think the tooltip isn't very clear)

storm forum
#

I didn't know it worked like that at all

sturdy knot
#

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

storm forum
#

Existing

sturdy knot
#

im new to this, so just noticign stuff that isn't in the guide or super clear (alteast to me)

storm forum
#

It's fine. Languaged is a flawed construct.

worn geyser
#

if apex at 80, let if fall off unless ur gonna overcap energy due to it

storm forum
#

DM buffs ur bleed regardless of when you apply it

sturdy knot
#

even at full CP? Just auto?

silent stratus
#

So when should we fan over CT? given that CT seems to be the best anyway

storm forum
#

And yeah, apex means you just sit there for a few globals sometimes

sturdy knot
#

isn't it CT just used to spread the dots, then FOK and envenom as normal?

storm forum
#

Like lucky said, don't do it during DM though, just overcap ur apex stacks it's fine you have the energy

storm forum
worn geyser
storm forum
#

It's more energy efficient and generates more CP

warm vortex
#

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

silent stratus
storm forum
#

Yeah but you never have that much energy, it's a hypothetical situation

sturdy knot
#

It deals more damage but not much iirc

worn geyser
#

its like an occasional situation in which you might throw out 1-2 extra instead for minor gain if ur like hella energy flush

storm forum
#

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

warm vortex
#

You do CT to spread bleeds and FoK when everythign has a bleed cause of the energy cost

silent stratus
#

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

storm forum
#

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?

silent stratus
#

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

so less jank

strange onyx
storm forum
#

If it's an upgrade, it's not 0.5%, it's like 0.0001%, it's not real

warm vortex
#

Hmmm

brittle quail
#

plater hass been updatedd

warm vortex
#

I might swap over then, plater seems fine for me atm

warm vortex
#

EVERY SINGLE TIME

#

i see your pfp

#

i see something completly diffrent

crisp pine
#

Plater is fine
doesn't really matter

brittle quail
#

its way better than when midnight came out

warm vortex
#

and i have to do a double take

strange onyx
#

Use whatever you want, but with how slow it was to update, we can’t recommend it

warm vortex
#

Secret ravenholt moderator

But anyone know if you can make nameplates width/height different in combat vs out of combat with platynator?

But idk what the original date was

#

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

brittle quail
#

yeah blue guy

warm vortex
#

ther's no reason waiting 40 seconds and losing damage

storm forum
#

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

warm vortex
#

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

silent stratus
#

anyone has the APL number on the maximum time required to hold KB for DM?

rugged basalt
#

You mean 60 seconds later

warm vortex
#

I'm fucking stupi

#

look at my name

warm vortex

I only hold KB if it's like 15-20 seconds before dm is gonna come up

I just asked whisp

in the morning

warm vortex

At least it wasn't zeros

analog field

he said send kb even in 30

Nah zeros a g

rugged basalt

Can I spitball numbers at him from 1-60 and see if it changes

storm forum

or just he did something wrong

it happens

runic hinge

I would never do anything wrong

#

(Don’t check my logs)

brittle quail
#

no one did a meekaura to track implacable ?

storm forum
#

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%)

warm vortex
#

This is why classes with 1 min cd and nothing else are fucking bis

Just press it on cooldown

@vital flicker isn't your latest experiment a 1% gain when casting only CT and no fok?

brittle quail

we litweally put lua in the bin so gouge could walk

might not work later

but it seems like you can tracck implacable tho

rugged basalt

Yes to the dummy

warm vortex

#

anyone figure out a npcs in range addon yet?

rugged basalt
#

I’m not sure what type of content you’re doing where you wish to minmax a hypothetical that might not occur very often

silent stratus
little tulip
#

14 adds tap ct what 5-6 times?

warm vortex
#

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"

storm forum
#

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

dire flume
worn geyser
#

u will time more keys paying attention to the mobs than u would worrying about the ct thing

warm vortex

But
he did say pushing keys

not pushing rogue keys

anyone else still doing less dps as assa then sub in 14-17 keys

okay srue next timed key ill send one

but I am trying to figure out something else

fair crypt
#

not played assa for like 2 years so must be some mistakes

warm vortex
fair crypt
#

also which dung do we want wound posion, and do we replcae deadly or amplyifying

silent stratus
#

I can see that for 90% players that 1% dps gain (if there is such thing) probably wouldn't matter

worn geyser
#

in 20s you arent missing the timer because of that kinda amount either, 99% of keys are execution problems

its in threads

post it here, assa doesn't have a log thread

That's a no DTB build

Once again, I'm not a TC so I don't really know what's going on in that sim

I mean it’s also a 1:30 sim

#

What are we simming

#

Burst?

silent stratus

fair crypt
#

ty mate

storm forum
#

But yeah, no DTB means thrown precision procs half as many poisons so it's worse?

severe meadow
#

How many targets

storm forum

But why are we simming these builds in niche scenarios without any descriptions like this?

lmao I tagged frowntain here in case anyone else knew the answer already

#

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

is sudden demise actually better for 12 and under?

willow mason

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?

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

why do you need a hunter if you have tricks garf

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

yeah your question started with why the fuck

dont worry were the bad guys

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

You dont need to choose between them

dire flume

unless raid sucks

verbal island
#

I have the dragon tempered blade talent, but I guess if I am running only one lethal I can drop that talent

dire flume
#

there would be no reason to not be running 2 lethal and 2 nonlethal with that

coral ibex
#

there aren't many scenarios currently where you dont run 2 lethal

dire flume
#

atrophic - nonlethal
the slowing one - nonlethal
amplifying - lethal
deadly - lethal

coral ibex
#

im pretty sure every build except the meme SD build takes dtb

Just put on deadly+amplifying+crippling+atrophic

You dont need to sacrifice anything

verbal island

you can have 2+2

and you end up running atro amp deadly and cripling

#

if I am not messing up the names

little tulip
#

honestly half the time running crippling poison is frost mage status

analog field
#

I am not losing dmg

brittle quail
#

yeah most of the time you should not put crippling up

analog field
#

just to not slow the mobs

#

who cares

#

just wait 3 sec for the mobs to gather

little tulip
#

yeah..you open on a berserker in maisara

analog field
#

or hit the ones that are kinda gathered

little tulip
#

and they're slowed

analog field
#

just not?

little tulip
#

yeah or just don't run crippling

#

ever

analog field
#

you are losing dmg

brittle quail
#

why would you lose dmg?

analog field
#

you have to put 4 poisons

#

you can put the anti heal one

brittle quail
#

letal poison are the one doing dmg

rugged basalt
brittle quail
#

why would you lose dmg for a utility one?

little tulip
#

wound takes lethal poison slot

#

crip is non

rugged basalt
#

I replied to the wrong message but enjoy sunshine

little tulip
#

trust u don't want crippling poison ever

analog field
#

you have a talent that does dmg based on your poisons

runic hinge
little tulip
#

mm okay gonna check the notes

rugged basalt
#

Okay hold on what poisons are we to use in content

runic hinge
#

!poisons

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

analog field
#

i mean dont put cripling so you don't slow mobs for the first 3 sec?

rugged basalt
#

Thank you

analog field
#

I don't understand the gain from it

little tulip
#

if it's just kingsbane's ramp

#

pretty sure crippling doesn't affect it being non lethal etc

analog field
#

I am pretty sure it does

little tulip
#

yeah you wanna help the gather

#

crip just does movement speed down

analog field
#

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

brittle quail
#

legit not loosing dmg by not using crippling

little tulip
#

ye just lethal damage

#

poisons*

#

windrunner brb

analog field
#

I think the tooltip is wrong as always

#

but someone else can confirm

brittle quail
#

i mean we have tricks to hit packs and start spreading early

analog field
#

I mean no one uses tricks on assa

brittle quail
#

but if we cant cause we have to use crippling

#

its just bad design

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

I mean, Lethal Dose says it should only be per lethal poison

brittle quail

yeah but it affect CT

while it shouldnt

so i'm not against the idea that cripplling affects it

coral pivot
#

Yea, but CT is not getting an increase from non-lethal poisons

brittle quail

i just don't have that info from anywhere

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

brittle quail
#

it does matter once blind is aaoe

aren't the mobs getting more dmg ?

like 10% ?

lime edge
#

The big mobs are also oftenly blind immune

analog field

or do they do reduced dmg maybe ?

lime edge

They do reduced dmg

analog field

don't remember exactly

#

yeah ok maybe irrelevant then

lime edge

And have reduced healing

analog field

but assa does not need tricks I think we do 0 dmg on the opening

brittle quail

depends on your tank

Its enough to take aggro

brittle quail

with bad tank you can def take aggro

and die

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 ?_?

do we use wound on masaira and if so isntead of what poison

coral ibex

no

brittle quail

never use wound

kk

brittle quail

wound bad as assa

fair crypt
#

and last thing is secondary posioning better than FLYING DAGGERS

I mean it is pretty useful in these dungeons

brittle quail

blackjack can give you the healing reduction when you need it

fair crypt
#

oopps caps

analog field

but dropping deadly is shit

fair crypt
#

ye ig its fine to use on sub

brittle quail
#

yeah its good on sub

#

outlaw too

#

but assa cant really drop letal poison

fair crypt
#

yee\

royal lantern
#

on sub and outlaw, the weapon poison is like 1% dmg and a flavor thing

royal lantern
#

on assa, the weapon poison is a part of the toolkit and talents exists around them

royal lantern
#

and like, if flying dagger was better, it would be taken instead

fair crypt
#

kk

lone lava
#

Anyone have the numbers on how strong each raid buff is for Assa in M+?

royal lantern
#

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

cosmic robin
#

FoK still as generator if everyone is bleeding in AoE/Cleave or stick with CT?

royal lantern
#

yes you use FoK when everything that should have a bleed has them

#

CT costs a good chunk more energy

cosmic robin
#

Does that change if we dont talented thrown precision?

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 🙁

spare kayak
#

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

vital flicker
sick marsh
#

i'll try this out on 5 dumies

spare kayak
#

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

vital flicker

#

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

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?

sometimes your target will die before you get an envenom out etc

# fickle coral why the fuck is the puzzle box bis when its a mastery trinket, and mastery is 4t...

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

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

Is it always correct to stop at 80 implac stacks for the energy buff? Or there’s situations in which you pool them for?

split laurel
fallow canopy
#

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

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 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
