severe meadow

#

bc

#

im doing puzzle 2-3sec before pull and this allows me stay on boss when adds are spawning to use KB again

#

idk maybe skill issue

aaaaaaaaa

#

are you splitting off boss to do adds

#

why

my raid lead literally calls melee stay on boss unless you get fixate

it's so freeing

#

gone are the constraints of having have 100% uptime on a boss

no longer are we chained to having to damage the boss

#

we can be free to roam the arena as we wish

Anyone have a cheat sheet for paladins of who to deathmark

Damn those kicks on M chim are rough

Guild wiped for 3 hours trying to get that shit sorted

#

If you're having to go on adds a lot during mythic salhadar, consider M+ spec. I just did it and the QoL and DPS are much better.

#

If that's standard practice then consider me dumb

balmy condor
#

if you're having to go on adds a lot during mythic salhadaar

#

you need to slap your tanks

oh

If I don't do it, ain't nobody damn doin' it 😭

craggy basin
#

hey how are people opening on myth pallys

balmy condor
#

you just CT and get some caustic

#

and it's gg

#

but like playing m+ spec is just

#

kinda whack

#

there is zero shot you're getting enough uptime on scent

#

and the orbs aren't on top of the boss so your pb damage probably also kinda ass

ember relic
#

How to improve as sin?

knotty vapor
#

read the guide and practice?

slim pebble
#

Just keep hitting your buttons in the specified order

burnt ember
#

It's a bad situation because my tanks are kinda iffy and so is the rest of the dps and orbs stay around way too long

burnt ember
#

Oh sorry my bad I meant venomous wounds

balmy condor
#

yeah but you take that regardless no?

burnt ember
#

That is true actually

#

Maybe I'm dumb but it felt better

#

And I'm not sure why

balmy condor
#

fair enough I guess

burnt ember
#

But you're right there's no obvious reason it should be better lmao

#

I mean I guess damage could be going up if the orbs are living a long time because of scent (actually this time)

#

But idk

#

Actually I do have a question, sometimes kingsbane and deathmark regrettably get de-synced when crazy shit is going on

balmy condor
#

like these are the swaps

burnt ember
#

Do you ever hold one for the other or do you just send when you have it?

balmy condor
#

depends on the fight and the desync

#

that's not really something that's theorycrafted

#

because like

#

it really shouldn't ever desync

burnt ember
#

Right because it's just wrong if it happens

balmy condor
#

sometimes maybe it can during m+, but that's a giant can of worms cause holding would then depend on your next like 3 pulls

#

in raid though you're just hitting on cd

burnt ember
#

Yeah I think I'm being forced to do too much target swapping by lazy dps so I'm running into situations where I'm using kingsbane late and having to be too far from a primary target

#

And then it gets de-synced

#

Which should never happen

#

And is only happening because of bad positioning

burnt ember
# balmy condor

Yeah that shouldn't make a big difference except for scent, so I guess if the orbs were dying faster that would be strictly not worth

scenic stratus
#

I feel like my damage struggles in the muro fight inside maisara is there like any like optimizations I can do during that fight? Unsure what im doing wrong on it tbh. rest of the dungeon feels fine just that one fight

solar wyvern
#

Rogue is just not very good at 2 target

#

Just do ST rotation and replace mut with fok and maintain bleeds

ancient ingot
#

Guys am I right or for 12.0.5 blitz make dm swap target if our target die?

balmy condor
#

it's a talent

#

and it's really fucking bad

#

Ah okay

When I’m low on energy / no tea up for a while, do i still hammer envenom on ST or do i just try to chain envenom?
And do you guys spare energy or try even to spare tea before big cd?

#

why in aoe opener we go with garrote - garrote - fan - rupture
and not with garrote - fan - rupture - garrote?

balmy condor
#

you can do both

halcyon thunder
#

someone please please tell me what poison lethal we are supposed to use in all cases , deadly or instant

balmy condor
#

!poison

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

halcyon thunder
#

so amplify + deadly? in M+?? or

balmy condor
#

with the standard builds, yes

halcyon thunder
#

man

#

ive been running instant for 2 weeks now

balmy condor
#

all the poisons do the same damage as instant

halcyon thunder
#

how much is my damage about to change

balmy condor
#

probably like ~5%

halcyon thunder
#

jfcccc

balmy condor
#

like

#

if you read the poisons

#

deadly poison is just instant, but it also has a dot

#

amp poison is just instant, but it also buffs envenom

#

and instant poison doesn't have a debuff attached to it, so you're not getting lethal dose value from it either

quiet star
halcyon thunder
#

you just blew my mind hahah ty sm

balmy condor
quiet star
#

because second garrote after rupture sounds like better timing for future

balmy condor
#

sure

#

instant poison on assa is crazy work

honest comet
#

I'm i crazy for using wound poison in the first area of miasara? The trolls have some regenbuff

sinful fable
#

do we have access to any tricks addon? There used to be one in which you made a macro and used the addon to always trick tank

#

or is that nuked via addon purge

honest comet
#

Also if I'm using wound poison at the start, should I use amp or deadly as the second one?

#

I would assume amp if talented

hi guys i have a question :). When ur setting up bleeds on a big pull in m+. Do you overcap on combo points and prioritize to get all bleeds up or envenom when full cp's?

#

i find that it takes forever to get all my bleeds out when doping the later option

zinc frost
#

Just send envenoms whilst pressing CT

somber barn
rancid anvil
#

Any tips for how to best swap to prio adds in raid boss fights? Are we pooling before swap? Holding combo points to get rupture up instantly?

subtle tundra
#

he doenst know deathmark is single target?

#

and makes a guide?

subtle tundra
#

he just chose some weird way of explaining it

kindred breach
subtle tundra
#

the video implies deathmark is aoe

kindred breach
#

i would vanish on the boss so you can get full pandemic improved garrote on both of your cd on the boss

#

try to hold vanish if adds are living for more than 10-15sec, i believe otherwise its a loss

analog field
#

Just don't use vanish at the start so you have it for your second DM on time.

kindred breach
#

what you mean? if you send vanish at the start you'll get it for second DM anyway?

#

another thing : try pooling a bit before KB. You want to have max evenom buff uptime for the full duration ; looking at it it dropped during the KB effect

#

like here it dropped

#

dropped by 1s though so not that deep i guess

honest comet
analog field
kindred breach
#

Yeah i agree, more like 4-5sec if you wait a tiny bit more, but still better than none lol

analog field
#

Yeah but if you happen to want to vanish for adds let's say or a mechanic etc you don't have it for a negligible dmg gain

kindred breach
#

Yeah 100% true, but like on his imperator fight since its less than 4min fight he doesnt get it back for second set of CDs

#

So i guess its still a loss overall? hard one tbh

analog field
#

Yeah didn't check the duration

#

You probably should send it at 30 sec

#

and then again at 2:30 or even delay DM to send at 3min with vanish or something

#

But this is if you know the fight duration

kindred breach
#

guess both works on this specific one

#

wait shit thats mythic

#

In hero more of them send it at beggining

#

what is pandemic

balmy condor
#

should never be trusted about anything

balmy condor
prisma monolithBOT
#

Pandemic takes up to 30% of the duration of a applied dot/buff and adds it to your new applied one. The duration depends on the new instance.
Example: Garrote (18 sec) can be extended by up to 5.4 seconds from an existing instance.
Note: Pandemic applies to most but not all debuffs/buffs

#

he has a big fucking icon of shiv

#

thats cosmetic

@strange onyx 's favorite video

kindred breach
#

easier to get 99+ parses if you misinform everyone

warped moon
#

we mostly use pandemic to get a little more imp garrote?

#

or am i missing something

balmy condor
#

we use it every time we need to refresh bleeds

warped moon
#

oh so refresh at like 8 sec or something?

balmy condor
#

~6 as a baseline

#

but yes

kindred breach
#

Like you dont want to wait for your bleed to drop to refresh

warped moon
#

okay

balmy condor
#

pandemic exists to balance dots rotationally

kindred breach
#

there are good better cdm profiles that light up your bleed icons when they need to be refreshed

balmy condor
#

cause like without it, you would technically have to refresh bleeds at exactly 0.1 seconds

#

but now you can refresh anywhere from 0.1 to like 7ish

#

and not lose or gain any dps

#

gives a good buffer

warped moon
#

neat

lyric sierra
#

stupid questiion: does appƶying a normal nonstealrh garotte, in pandemic window, on a mob having imp garotte on it, increase runtime of imp garotte?

or does it aplly normal garotte and increase that?

balmy condor
#

the damage is calculated from the new application

#

so pandemic imp -> normal would increase duration, but the damage would be like a normal garrote

#

normal -> imp would increase duration and the damage would be that of an improved garrote

i am looking at wow analyzer. and i am seeing that i can snapshot my improved garotte. how do i do that?

sacred oyster

that would be outdated information, snapshotting was a bug that got fixed

it wasnt really a good thing either, made opening annoying

strange wolf
#

so in keys i am seing that allot of players want to keep chain pulling. why is that then since we cant snapshot

you need to get off the snapshot word lol. yes it hurts us for improved garrote, you can vanish though

Hey guys, I have a question about Assassination Rogue BiS crafted embellishment slots.

Most guides like Wowhead and Icy Veins recommend crafting bracers with Arcaneweave Lining, but I noticed that some BiS lists recommend the cloak from Magisters’ Terrace as the BiS cloak.

From an acquisition-difficulty perspective, wouldn’t it make more sense to craft the embellished cloak instead, since getting a specific Mythic+ cloak can be pretty hard?
The Crit/Haste bracers from Vorasius, the second boss in Spire, seem easier to target-farm, so I was thinking it might be better to craft the cloak and farm those bracers instead.

Is there a reason guides specifically recommend crafting bracers and getting the cloak from Mythic+?

Would appreciate any thoughts!

storm forum
#

wrists and cloak have the same stat budget so I think of them interchangeably

#

my rogue has a cloak just cause my priest can craft it

spice surge
#

Also theres practically no difference between cloaks and wrists to begin with

#

As in between separate ones

#

If you want to go cloak instead because you already have bracers, go ahead, it doesnt matter

modern rover
#

Now I’m wondering why guides like Wowhead or Icy Veins specifically list wrists as the crafted embellished piece. Is there any particular reason for that?

#

So basically, I don’t need to force the embellished craft on wrists just because guides like Wowhead or Icy Veins list it that way, right?

severe meadow
#

Also a reminder, you don't have to follow guides so closely

spice surge
#

You dont, but again, it doesnt mattr

#

Theres dozens (literally dozens) of combinations of items that sim the exact same as the bis lists

severe meadow
#

You can also just sim and make decisions on your own

storm forum
#

when whispyr was doing the sims it probably simmed slightly higher (like within margin of error higher) and he just rolled with it

sacred oyster
#

its ultimately just cause its a small stat budget item thats common.

storm forum
#

or maybe he's pushing the leatherworking agenda

sacred oyster
#

i think your argument is valid though, whisp def favors raid farmed gear for BIS, so the logic of bracers being raid farmable but cape isnt is valid

spice surge
#

Its not like vanilla classic where some items have +30% more stats than anything else from the same tier of content. All items have normalized amount of stats so anything at a specific ilvl is gonna be pretty similar to all the other options at the same ilvl

sacred oyster
#

honestly it should list both BIS for raid and BIS for m+ as many dont myth raid, so does kinda suck the "BIS" list excludes recommendations for large portion of players.

radiant otter
#

it's because guides have to choose a single set of things rather than being like "you can do this, this, this, or this, or this, or sometimes this" since that ends up not really being a guide

#

you're right though with the way bonus rolls work you can get top tier belt and wrists from pit so cloak is a good craft and other reasons for crafting wrists, like crafting early for embellish + socket or whatever, no longer exist the same way

spice surge
modern rover
#

I guess I was trying too hard to follow the guides exactly.
Thank you so much for all the help, everyone! Thanks to you guys, my concern has been cleared up.

Hope you all have a great time in WoW!

How do i sim wich crafted is best for me

#

?

sacred oyster
spice surge
random gazelle
#

Are crafted still better than going max ilvl later on? If some nerd says sim it I will destroy them

sacred oyster
#

you should sim it however if crafting a piece vs upgrading a piece is the best use of crest, so yes sim it

#

as you are myth crest restrained

random gazelle
#

I'm just wondering if embellishments are competitive vs max ilvl once we're getting to the point of full myth

#

As a ballpark

spice surge
#

yes

#

Embellishments are worth more than 3 ilvls

sacred oyster
#

hunt embellish is better than a dropped offhand yes

#

i have simmed that to verify

#

by a pretty big margin too

random gazelle
#

Interesting. So crafted oh is > anything else?

sacred oyster
#

yes

random gazelle
#

Neat

spice surge
#

Well you want your highest ilvl dagger in your mainhand

sacred oyster
#

so thats why its best to craft early, use it as main hand until you get a fully upgraded 6/6 myth to replace it as mainhand

#

dont waste any crest on your temp offhand

random gazelle
#

I have myth pit mh and crafted oh already

sacred oyster
#

then you are BIS

hey guys can anyone help me i dont know why i have that less hits with caustic spatter... it was a windrunner 16. when i look at top logs they have nearly twice as much hits

sacred oyster
#

the raid dagger is not better than kricks ever, its just listed as BIS as its technically easier to farm for anyone who myth raids.

spice surge
#

It also doesnt matter

sacred oyster

#

no it isnt

#

the top log on a windrunner 16 has 15,686 caustic spatter hits which makes me think you're comparing it to higher keys, where everything has much higher health and so gets hit more

# bold dragon the best one i see have 21k hits and 4 mins less time usage for the run :/

i just looked at that one too and my guess would be they play with an aug evoker, who is buffing their damage, possibly allowing rogue to splash more caustic. I doubt it's something you should be concerned about in terms of your damage. M+ logs are scuffed because it's overall for the dungeon and massively depends on routes, pulls, and group composition

make sure to select raid buffs for raid sim, but unselect them for dungeon slice

unless you are in like a static m+ group with a certain buffer type you can reliably count on

hi sin folks. when simming m+ it shows crit flask as best, but does anyone know if its better to go w/ haste flask to help w/ energy? im at 18% energy which is fine-ish

coral ibex
#

haste flask will not make energy regen noticeably better

#

energy regen is low on the spec by design

#

if the sim shows crit flask is best then crit flask is best

#

stacking haste to improve energy is bad

lucid walrus
#

thats what i figured but wanted to confirm. thx

#

ive gotten used to the energy and dropping apex stacks and this spec is so fun its crazy

onyx veldt
#

ty

#

so like idk when to swap to adds or not

#

to maximize up time

frosty cedar
#

when you get sent down

onyx veldt
#

yeah i tried spreading bleeds when going down and then going back to boss

frosty cedar
#

thats probably not the play

spice spire
#

Just slam adds then slam boss

frosty cedar
#

if you want to do max damage, you will want to be hitting the big add once you go down as much as possible

spice spire
#

^

frosty cedar
#

once they are broken out of the phase, you can go back to the boss

#

you can completely ignore them after that and just hit boss

onyx veldt
#

i see

frosty cedar
#

if your going down first, omit your first envenom cast before using cooldowns and just go as soon as possible

onyx veldt
#

okay fair enough

frosty cedar
#

hold your vanish and use it shortly before going down so that you can improved garrote the boss AND warlock portal over and improved garrote the big add twice, then spread that to all the littel adds

#

I believe this to be the highest dmg potential opener on chimaerus for going down first

safe frigate
frosty cedar
#

second issue for you

#

you held your deathmark for intermission

#

you should use it again on the boss before you go

safe frigate
frosty cedar
#

you have time to so make sure you do

spice spire
onyx veldt
#

okay yeah i was not sure if that was the move or no

#

i held it for big add

frosty cedar
#

for the fight sequencing

#

you definitely want to use it before you go intermission

#

so you can use it again when you come back, or hold it for 5 minutes with potion depending on your kill time

safe frigate
onyx veldt
#

oh yeah also when should i use my potion in this fight

spice spire
#

No you queen. I hope you have an amazing night BearHeart

onyx veldt
#

opener and after intermission?

lusty notch
#

Hey guys, I’ve noticed that streamers still have WA packs. Does anyone know how they get them? How can I access those using the Blizzard API?

frosty cedar
#

opener yes, and then its kill time dependant. you ideally would want to use it a 5 minutes with a held third deathmark if your fight timer is less than around 6min, or at 6 minutes with your fourth deathmark if your fight timer is over 6

frosty cedar
# spark warren Yeah. I did ok-ish on Vorasius. Averzian tho, it was disastrous lol

firstly you should be opening with garrote, not mutilate, so do that, and try to recast before improved garrote window ends

secondly it looks like you overwrote your empowered garrote with a regular one at 21 seconds in

thirdly I suspect you blew your second set of cooldowns on the boss and then ditched him and switched to the adds? lmk what happened here

spark warren
#

And oh-- true for garrote! Not even sure how I didn't realize it, thanks ^^

spice spire
#

Also what happened on your last kb?

#

You’re missing one (granted you wouldn’t get full value) because you sent it 30s late

were you targeted or did you go to help? If the team needs help on the damage you can "eat" the damage loss and do it tho I wouldn't recommend it, ranged can easily do the adds

you can add "/tm 7" (or whatever symbol you want, 7 is red X) to your KB or DM macro

I don't do this cause usually tanks like to mark things for kicks or focus whatever

wispy nymph
#

who cares about tank variance -- in an optimal environment, if your outlaw spec says youll do 200k in dslice and assa says 190k why would those not be good proxies?

balmy condor

because that's not how simulations work

so the output damage isnt a good proxy, got it.

How’s the play style btw sub and sin - from the outside it feels similar with how CDs tend to line up. I learned the sin rotation pre season but ended up playing sub this whole season - I’ve done all 15s and now going into 16s and wondering if there’s a clear benefit to sin at higher keys since I see so many high keys running sin
