But if it works it works

#

btw do you have any way to track implacable stacks or do i just count to 5

balmy condor
#

!implac

prisma monolithBOT
#

Implacable is bugged in Blizzard's Cooldown Manager, there is no way to "fix" it without an addon. It can mostly be ignored without losing more than ~0.8%

If you'd like an addon to track implacable, search for Nooka Implacable or use the Curseforge Link

alright ty

Maybe tracking fatebound coins is the difference

That works

#

yo boys, is there a way to caustic spatter more often?

balmy condor
#

What

#

More often as in what

frosty cedar
#

it's healthy to spatter once a day

#

Personally any more than that is too much for me

golden loom
#

I mean if ur talking about spattering more in aoe add spawns you can pool a bit before so you can pump more envenomns

#

but other than that idk what that means garf

#

yo broskis, newb here just leveling the rogue in timewalking rn iam 88 and just one question how you guys manage to not run out of energy? 😄

rancid cave
cunning needle
#

you run out of energy

#

that is just how the resource works

#

if you didn't run out of energy, then energy would not be a resource you have to "manage"

balmy condor
#

Caustic is entirely passive in nature

#

It’s essentially 100% uptime and you can’t really do much to fuck that up

jagged heron
#

so it helps to always wait for envenom almost over to press again right?

#

and we always want to have max cp before using envenom?

rancid cave
#

@balmy condor ye but sometimes i do in the exact same pull 500k dmg, and sometimes only 200k. and the only thing that is different are that green spatters on the ground, like sometimes it "proc" more often

!pooling

prisma monolithBOT
#
  • Energy just is low on the spec there's nothing to do about it, you will run out
  • Without the Apex talent there is no reason to pool, once midnight drops this will update with whatever logic is found
balmy condor
#

Should probably update that, eh?

#

Which fucking idiot didn’t check the bot commands post-launch

balmy condor
#

Can’t blind an orb

#

You have to blind a mob

wary light
cunning needle
#

how can an orb be blinded if it can't see

#

but yeah when you blind the orb it goes away insta

#

so it cant apply the aoe function

#

you need to blind a mob near the orb

subtle tundra
#

they should remove poison bomb on God

all it does is confuse ppl

subtle tundra

seaing your ass

autumn sierra
#

When I have an improved Garrote on the target, how long is the window I can refresh it without vanish?

subtle tundra
#

you wait for it to expire

untold mortar
autumn sierra
#

I was asking because the opener on Icy veins, mentioned after Deathmark -> Kingsbane -> "use garrote to refresh improved garrote"

#

or does it expect me to use vanish -> garrote after the initial set up?

#

e.g. stealth => garrote, build up -> rupture => cast some crimson tempest / envenoms now use Deathmark, Kingsbane into vanish garrote?

subtle tundra
#

yes thats vanish garrote

untold mortar
#

u dont refresh garrote after dm and kb

subtle tundra
#

you refresh in pandemic ofc

#

not randomly

untold mortar
#

this is not what he means i guess

#

so opener is like garr -> mut -> rup -> garr -> mut -> env -> cds

subtle tundra
#

i am becoming confuse

#

cool

runic hinge
#

cool

untold mortar
#

whats confusing you?

runic hinge
#

his sexuality

subtle tundra
#

😳

autumn sierra
autumn sierra
#

and ideally I have vanish available for deathmark CD due the 2 mins

untold mortar
#

as i said you can refresh in opener for extended duration for your improved garr

autumn sierra
#

so after i have rupture on with ~40 secs, ill increase the imroved one and then start with cds

untold mortar
#

yes so you dont have to worry about pandemic in dm window

#

they give out mythic gazes for free now with the bonuss rolls, and people still cry about it

Did warlocks get nerfed or something how tf are 275-280 ilvl demo warlocks struggling to compete with tanks on meters

not really

#

its just that time of season

ye well can't they stick to delves or some shit instead of clogging up the lfg making queueing for keys an absolute snoozefest

frosty cedar
#

there is nothing you can do

spice surge
#

Check logs before you invite people is one of the only ways, but its insanely annoying

open mantle
#

is it true i should apply deathmark when i vanish into a improved garrote again ?

frosty cedar
#

can you rephrase that in a way which makes it easier to understand exactly what you are asking garf_sit

lean plover
#

I think he means should he vanish imp gar after(or before?) applying deathmark

gray raven
#

before - vanish, 2x garrote so you have 30 seconds of imp garrote, then puzzle/dm/kb

frosty cedar
#

I would vanish, garrote, then do your cooldowns yes, if you can garrote again before the end of the 6 second duration its better than slamming two garrotes in a row

gray raven
#

it's marginal

#

but sure

open mantle
#

@frosty cedar thank u i been doing garrote then 5 combos rupture then reapply improved garrote

#

is that okay ?

frosty cedar
#

thats fine if rupture is in pandemic

open mantle
#

its just the opener i need to get used too

#

and also with aoe if there are 6 mobs for CT do i apply that many to as many adds there are

frosty cedar
#

what are you struggling with on opener?

open mantle
#

im swapping away from sub because i find it rlly boring and i find assa alot more enjoyable only problem is that im energy starved

frigid cedar
#

guys do you know if the rolls stack, lets say i dont use my rolls this week can i have 4 rolls next week?

open mantle
#

ye

#

wait

#

no

frosty cedar
#

to be energy starved is part of the design of the spec, it does not necessarily mean you are playing wrong

open mantle
#

its 2/2 atm

open mantle
#

but there gonna bump it up

#

every week

frigid cedar
#

so if i stay 2/2 this week next week i get 4/4 yes

open mantle
#

yes

frosty cedar
#

I should certainly think so

frigid cedar
#

cant decide if i roll on skyreach for outlaw wep or I stay assa and roll pos 😄

open mantle
#

if ur doing that id wait

#

and find which spec u enjoy the most

#

thats what i do

frosty cedar
#

ive been to algethar to try and get puzzle box, missed it on both rolls

#

but I did get myth wrists with socket, so not bad

#

golden loom
#

Wrists cloak ring and puzzyB

frosty cedar
#

ill be in nexus point after puzzy B for the rings

open mantle
#

@frosty cedar also question i know envenom gives u energy back should i also try and hit 80% and let it fall or

frosty cedar
#

there will be times that you continue to cast envenoms despite your stacks if waiting would make you overcap energy

dry copper
#

If chest at the end of dungeon dropped 266 ilvl back and bonus roll gives me same back but mythic track it is bug or not?

frosty cedar
#

often during cooldowns in bloodlust, sometimes during cooldowns in eexecute

open mantle
#

and for CT do i apply to as many adds there are

frosty cedar
#

personally I ignore the apex during cooldowns in any event

#

DM that is

open mantle
#

DM ?

frosty cedar
frosty cedar
open mantle
#

wait we play dm in mythic+ ?

frosty cedar
#

our main cooldown? yes? 😄

open mantle
#

oh sorry was thinking of somethjng else haha

frosty cedar
#

did you mistake me to mean sudden demise?

open mantle
#

ye

frosty cedar
#

you can play it in low keys

open mantle
#

i just u wanna max out ur bleeds to as many as there are

#

but ig that would make u energy starved

frosty cedar
#

you should still spend evenom at 5cp

#

while you are spreading bleeds

open mantle
#

thats what i do

frosty cedar
#

you might run out of energy depending on pack size

#

its usually not a problem though

open mantle
#

i just need to get a hang of single target

#

on raid

frosty cedar
#

well if you have any questions feel free to fire away

open mantle
#

for openers is it garrote then Rupture then vanish garrote on use trinket kings then DM ?

frosty cedar
#

not quite no

#

you should garrote as your first global, build to and spend a rupture, then build to and spend an envenom, then puzzle box, deathmark, kingsbane, envenom

garrote->build->rupture->build-> (I would usually reapply garrote here inside imp gar duratiuon) -> envenom->deathmark->kingsbane->envenom

#

I usually hold vanish for the next cooldown set

open mantle
#

when u get both back on cd or just kings ?

frosty cedar
#

you can garrote again in that sequence to reapply it

#

both

open mantle
frosty cedar
#

garrote->build->rupture->build-> (I would usually reapply garrote here inside imp gar duratiuon) -> envenom->deathmark->kingsbane->envenom

frosty cedar
open mantle
#

AHH because when ur DM comes back up so does vanish

#

i get ya now

frosty cedar
#

well its up anyway because you dont need to use it on pull

open mantle
#

use what

frosty cedar
#

vanish

open mantle
#

vanish ?

#

nono ur ideas are smart

normal mist
open mantle
#

id prefer to line it up with DM

#

and kings

#

u do alot dmg

#

then

frosty cedar
#

it really depends on the boss

open mantle
#

yes ofc

frosty cedar
#

for chimearus I use vanish during my first cds to I can spread imp gar to adds

golden loom
#

@frosty cedar on paladins ur just vanishing on cd right?

indigo mulch
frosty cedar
golden loom
#

ye for the guy running away I was refreshing rupture at like 15 seconds

#

just to have it for scent

frosty cedar
#

my first instinct was to do this as well but the pulls where I did not do that and sent an extra envenom when they are grouped up for the pull ended up working out better

golden loom
#

but then I was vanishing on 2target when the inital runs out but idk if its optimal

frosty cedar
#

I believe the sequencing means that when the tank lady comes back you can reaply rupture with the kingsbane without having to overspend on rupture so it evens out but you get a higher value envenom on the pull

#

if you just dont reapply rupture for when she runs out

#

cause then the ret pala runs out with a good rupture without you overspendinbg

golden loom
#

yeah idk guess it depends if that one extra envenom is better than 1 extra scent stack for like 15ish sec

frosty cedar
#

it seemed better for me but I swear that fight has disgusting variance

#

one pull we wipe at 1% and im above the rank one by 15k dps

next pull we kill it and I do AWFUL

golden loom
#

yeah we are still progging it so idk yet

#

should die tmrw

frosty cedar
#

good luck tho

#

its truly an annoying fight

#

you also rely a LOT on your tanks for good dmg

golden loom
#

the 2nd dm is so annoying cause the tank lady is just perma running away kekw

frosty cedar
#

it just feels like you have little agency

golden loom
#

idk why they cant get her to stay

frosty cedar
#

second DM im using on the ret pala

#

hes running out during the tornados, right? with the other guy

golden loom
#

yeah maybe I should just do that

frosty cedar
#

just make sure you dont get clipped by the silence field

#

when your channeling PB

golden loom
#

its weird that 1 silence is a real silence and the other just does nothing for physical dps

#

but yeah reason I wasnt sending on ret is that his HP is like 50% while the others are 70% there kekw

#

or something like that

frosty cedar
#

well killing the ret first is the strat, but post nerf he dies super fuckin quick

golden loom
#

ye I know he is supposed to die first but it does feel like he will die WAY too fast

#

better fight than soul hunters tho garf

frosty cedar
#

real

#

though I played WL that tier so I was kind of payphoning as destro

#

just spamming CB

sacred oyster
#

fuck yeah, got POS belt neck and now dagger on my refunded voidcore rolls

#

now to AA

golden loom
open mantle
#

@frosty cedar can i ask for spamming CT does the original add that has bleeds need to be near adds for it to spread

frosty cedar
#

all that is required

#

is that you hit both the add with the bleed, and the add without the bleed, with the same tempest

golden loom
#

I had to play warrior and then DH for NK/dimmy prog and then when I finally got to rekill them on rogue it was beyond cursed garf

frosty cedar
#

so you have to position yourself to hit both

open mantle
#

so ye u need to hit them with the bleed from boss example

frosty cedar
open mantle
#

to adds

frosty cedar
#

so if the boss has the bleed

#

you need the CT to hit both the boss and the adds

open mantle
#

yes

#

thats what i thought

#

but if adds on dreamrift are far away

#

isnt that hard

#

to connect

frosty cedar
#

on myth?

open mantle
#

well i mostly do HC

frosty cedar
#

I wouldnt worry about that to be honest. On myth when you take the gateway to the addds, you can just redot the big guy and spread from him

#

on HC oftentimes the adds will be close to the boss so you can spread off

#

depends really

#

if you have to just redot one and spread off it its not the end of the world

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

You could get a duplicate if you roll from the same loot pool so beware

im glad i rolled for a raid item

now i can go roll m+ without worry

But if you are not rolling the same loot pool again, then stonks

Hi. I'm thinking of going back to sin. I do have alot of bis for sub though (so alot of mastery) Is it very bad to just change to sin and play with my currect gear or should I wait until I get a bunch of bis for sin?

frosty cedar
#

so I replied

#

what is better? hero 6/6 bis or myth not bis 6/6?

frosty cedar
#

sim it

waxen oyster
#

13 ilvl is alot...

slate nest
#

Backshot why no sudden demise on dragons?

#

Orbs not living too long?

frosty cedar
#

its just padding to be honest

coral ibex
#

it is purely padding

waxen oyster
#

orbs die in 1-2s

slate nest
#

isnt that what we are all here for

coral ibex
#

those shitters die instantly

waxen oyster
#

even on myth

frosty cedar
#

im not specifically playing to parse

golden loom
#

its pure padd on a boss thats not even on allstars

coral ibex
#

no im actually fundamentally opposed to padding on shitters, i genuinely hate fights that require it for a good parse

#

i would rather just play the fight "correctly"

slate nest
#

why are dragons not on allstars?

golden loom
#

cause its the most padd fest of all time

frosty cedar
#

cause you can pad super hard

waxen oyster
#

"why is a padfight removed off allstars"

#

xd

coral ibex
#

because you parse by paying your raid to afk on every orb drop

hybrid snow
#

!ui

prisma monolithBOT
golden loom
#

just like stix bunk junker or ovinaxx

#

that were also removed

#

or ulgraxx intermission adds

slate nest
waxen oyster
#

i mean you asked something about raid

#

so...

frosty cedar
#

to be honest, you dont need to go sudden demise to parse on it, but its definitely more overall

coral ibex
#

its just very common to happen

slate nest
#

I didn't know that fact so

frosty cedar
#

its not THAT bad compared to other giga pad fights from other tiers

waxen oyster
#

any fight with shitter mobs ends up a pad

slate nest
#

thats why im rank 31 on allstars despite a shit log there, explains it lul

coral ibex
#

any fight where parsing strategies are degenerate and don't contribute to ending the fight ends up being removed from all stars or rules get changed

is there any other fight excluded? or is it just drakes

Idk if its be more beneficial to put more to crit haste or vers

golden loom
#

I mean do you have the items to do that?

rugged basalt
frosty cedar
golden loom
#

do you have equal ilvl pieces of different stats

lunar hazel
#

I dont know assassination to well so idk if I can get more value elsewhere

#

Just recrafts yeah

waxen oyster
#

you litearlly ask topgear

fresh kelp
golden loom
#

you can sim that

rugged basalt
#

If they are still hero track gear for example, you can topgear m+ gear replacements but that'd be painful to farm for

frosty cedar
#

sim your recrafts and see if its a gain I would suggest

lunar hazel
#

And change plume from crit to mastery ect

fresh kelp
#

i think id be a lot happier on assa where you can't be a gremlin

frosty cedar
#

to be honest the way assa is designed right now its hard to gremlin

#

which is why its so good atm

fresh kelp
#

i look at sub logs and they're holding full cds and 2nd pot for last little orb spawn on nk

golden loom
frosty cedar
#

you dont have to specifically pad or grief to parse

fresh kelp
#

legit out of melee range of boss when it dies

frosty cedar
#

unlike many other specs

lunar hazel
#

Yeah I use those tools. I'm just asking if there are like caps or if im just using way to much mastery.

golden loom
#

I hope next tier has 5 pure ST fights

frosty cedar
#

you and I both

fresh kelp
golden loom
#

there is no caps

#

u follow the sim

lunar hazel
#

Cause assa seems really confusing

#

Stat ways

#

Wise

golden loom
#

and if the sim says ur things are fine then they are fine

coral ibex
#

its not confusing, all stats are good

#

you equip the highest simming combination of gear

frosty cedar
#

in general its going to be crit-haste-mastery=vers

lunar hazel
#

Ok so all stats benefit and none are dead stats?

slate nest
#

Crit just makes the spec more fun tbh

golden loom
#

yeah all stats are just vers in disguise (more damage)

rugged basalt
#

favoring crit, haste/mast being on equalish footing, and we dislike vers

coral ibex
#

vers is the closest to a dead stat there is and its just not as good

lunar hazel
#

Ok cool ty

golden loom
frosty cedar
#

I mean the funnel is good

golden loom
#

im just hitting boss and then I check other logs and they cast CT like 15 times more than me garf

slate nest
#

Another question for you backshot - I see a lot of people switching over to improved ambush, but you stick to tight spender. I personally enjoy the ambush CPs alot in fights, why do you stick to tight spender?

frosty cedar
#

I prefer it because it feels better, afaik its better outside of ST, and I tend to play a lot around my energy in the pull so it gives me more of it

#

I think its only slightly ahead in ST. maybe ill play it on lura

#

I havent simmed it in ages though

golden loom
#

wait you think tight spender feels better?

slate nest
#

Is there a energy breakpoint where you let implecable run out? Or is just feels wise for you

frosty cedar
#

sure, you spend less energy

lunar hazel
#

"Tight" always feels better

golden loom
#

Blindside procs without improved ambush feel so painful and then tight spender is just "non-feeling" imo

frosty cedar
#

I generally ignore apex during deathmark or if I want to pool energy for, say, dragon adds, nexus dmg amp

rugged basalt
#

in areas where im renewing rupture and i happen to be 65+ i let it run out

frosty cedar
#

that can often happen yeah

slate nest
#

Yea i try to let it run out during rupture/garrote refresh

frosty cedar
#

well it depends where you are

slate nest
#

and when im like noticing im energy starved

frosty cedar
#

what I do is that I fish a little when my rupture is near or at pandemic

#

if you use a 7 cp envenom you can guarantee that you will reapply rupute and still continue your apex chain without relying on a good crit roll on your builder

#

so I generally look out for that moment if im near pandemic or in it

slate nest
#

hmm that sounds interesting

#

thanks buddy

frosty cedar
#

I dont think its worth it to intentionally go to 7cp in that scenario but I will see if I can get it before I commit to a refresh on rupture usually if im mid apex chain

slate nest
#

I mean your performance might indicate its worth it haha

frosty cedar
#

just little min max stuff u get used to after a while

slate nest
#

I mean I'm playing at the top, I have to start trying min max to catch you 😛

golden loom
#

sometimes u try to minmax everything and then you press kingbane on a blistercreep garf

slate nest
#

or you forget to kingsbane and its at 45 seconds cd and you just have to take the L

frosty cedar
# slate nest I mean I'm playing at the top, I have to start trying min max to catch you 😛

the three most important things you can do to parse well is

  1. commit little to no mistakes on globals across the pull
  2. have a good fight plan for your cooldowns and your energy depending on the mechanics and the teamcomp and kill time you have (its not one size fits all)
  3. have your character as tuned as possible

luckily 1 is not too hard on assassination due to having the time to think about your globals but you have to actively think about #2

open mantle
#

quick question for mythic 2nd boss of voidspire do i spread bleeds to adds

frosty cedar
#

which one, vorasius or salhadaar?

open mantle
#

vorasius

frosty cedar
#

just go full singletarget build and sit boss

open mantle
#

okay

frosty cedar
#

well. thats the best way. but if your RL is calling you to do adds then go do them I guess

slate nest
frosty cedar

its definitely easier in a guild environment

frosty cedar

frosty cedar

oops

Oh wow

shy heron
#

Exile was only in on vorasius and lura that's it

lunar hazel
#

So preference question. Do you guys think puzzle box is worth the annoyance of using it for the dmg increase?

hard grail
#

Yes

#

What's so "annoying"? Using it?

lunar hazel
#

Using ut

#

It

outer marlin
#

obviously the channel? lol

shy heron
#

The channel

hard grail
#

Using the On Use Trinket is annoying is wierd to me ig

lunar hazel
#

The on use isnt the problem. Its the 2s cast time after opening in a big pack pull

shy heron
#

It's the fact that as a rogue we have exactly zero channels or hard casts so it's just foreign to players who are used to instant blasting

frosty cedar
#

yes of course its worth it. its hasted so its not even 2s

hard grail
#

2 seconds aint shit, you're missing one cast if you're a caster to get a massive dmg buff

outer marlin
#

idk what to tell ya, it's obviously more annoying to use than any other trinket. you can play pretend if you want

hard grail
#

But using that 1.6 seconds to channel puzzle box is the most dmg you could possible do in that 1.6 seconds youre "losing"

#

so

lunar hazel
#

For sub i dont mind it. The sequence of. Garrote rupture, mutilate, garotte, 2s cast, km, kb. When im using it hate assa when im not using it I love assa

hard grail
#

its really only BIS on sin

pseudo crow
#

So is deathstalker’s mark hella bugged rn?

hard grail
#

not great on sub

frosty cedar
lunar hazel
#

I didnt say it was bis on sub. I said I dont mind it on sub.

lunar hazel
#

I think ill just kms

vestal wren
#

subtlety uses guidon instead, still requires annoying use but! is not a channel

hard grail
#

Why do people look at Puzzle Box like youre losing damage when you use it though? It's the most damage you could do. Or you could not use puzzle box and do less damage and have an extra 1.5 secs to cast one mutilate

#

Stop looking at it like its some hard damage loss i think

vestal wren
#

puzzle box is just annoying to use

hard grail
#

I guess I wonder if

lunar hazel
#

I never said its a large dmg loss why the fuck you making shit up bro? 🤣

hard grail
#

Say Kingsbane was a 1.5 second channel, would people complain about Kingsbane? Or they wouldnt cuz it does damage

lunar hazel
#

I specifically said is it worth the dmg loss to you guys for losing the annoyance

outer marlin
#

people would. because it'd be annoying to use lmao

hard grail
#

So you said "I'm losing 2 seconds after opening after a big pack pull" - that wasnt you suggesting you lose uptime of doing damage?

lunar hazel
#

No mf I said it'd annoying youre adding your own version

#

Stop making shit up to seem edgy

hard grail
#

So your question was should I do less damage so I can not press my trinket? That was your question?

storm forum
#

I don't mind puzzlebox, I think it's funny that we're in full combat with a mob of 35 evil plants or a couple dragons and we go "don't mind me, just solving a little puzzle"

Hey lil bro if you're trying to figure out if you should do %30 less damage so you can not press your trinket - maybe it doesnt matter what you do

#

or what anyone tells you

lunar hazel

Ask a simple question and this edgelord has to act like someone stole his gf

#

I also never said i wouldn't use it or dont use it. I just hate the trinket

hard grail

"I wasn't asking about using it"

"Do you guys think it's worth using it?"

Barbarian is an absolute ton of fun but I wish I could hide the other weapons from the Arsenal (and the Arse feels pretty mid compared to other classes). Druid is really fucking cool, but sorta runs outta flashy steam sooner than not.

One of the Aura's does damage to stuff around you and you can build it up to do more and do other stuff. So you can run about blowing stuff up passively.
