smol dps brain only understand 1 number bigger

#

hello, assassination is good in both, you can track bleeds on the regular blizzard nameplates, I think it does it automatically

#

you dont need to track poisons

south ember
frosty cedar
#

usually you just run all 4 poisons if your running the regular m+ build, but if your using the sudden demise build, you can just run amplifying and numbing

#

i BELIEVE secondary poisoning can proc off non-lethal poison applications so im not sure if its worth dropping crippling with the regular m+ build but i COULD be wrong

native heron
#

I want the bleed build to come back 🙁

pure moth
#

My b.

analog field
static glacier
#

Im sv, been sv forever on it too. don't play the ranged specs

analog field
#

so we can drop crippling and run 3 poisons with no issue

warped moon
#

i only run 3

#

crippling just messes up pulls

frosty cedar
analog field
#

it was a talent I think secondary but maybe it was something else in tww which worked with crippling. Ah maybe lethal dose

#

But now it doesn't

#

It was saying lethal but it wasn't lethal but now finally it is

supple monolith
#

witch buff yall take in aa?

static glacier
humble verge
#

@viscid spear

supple monolith
#

i have 37% crit

humble verge
#

are u 3k yet ash

analog field
#

crit or Vers

balmy condor
#

yeh, you take vers or crit

#

doesn't matter really which

supple monolith
#

vers why on high keys to survive?

analog field
#

it's the same amount of dmg

#

or close let's say

#

and also survivability

alpine ore
#

Is 82k overall dps decent for a rogue at 262 ilvl ? In a +10 key. Idk but I felt so weak the whole time

balmy condor
#

feels low, but there's way too many variables in this equation

strange wolf
#

Prob amounts to are you resetting the empowered garotte or are you just zug zugging

buoyant herald
#

Definitely more than that

alpine ore
#

Well the tank did 1 long pull that lasted the whole dungeon so my only way of empowering garrot was vanish

buoyant herald
#

Sounds like tank pulling one pack at a time

strange wolf
#

Its the first one to think off

buoyant herald
#

Or bad chaining I guess haha

strange wolf
#

There is one issue

#

In 10’s tanks just walk one line. There isnt any downtine

#

People dont understand that assa needs restealthing

#

Depends on the key to ofcourse

buoyant herald
#

I think tanks don’t understand that chaining means pull the next pack when all ranged/danger mobs are dead

cerulean forge
#

sudden demise the build for 80-90 ?

strange wolf
#

And after the four main factors are accounted for. Then the real hard issue. How are you pressing buttons/stats

alpine ore
#

Man I wish I had a log to link haha

onyx crane
jaunty sky

strange wolf
onyx crane
#

restealthing convo was mostly in deathstalker

warped moon
#

ok so i did the vanish at 11 sec thing but i dont rly understand

#

bc garrote doesnt seem to get higher than 31 sec

#

isnt it better to get imp garrote to last as long as possible

#

like a full minute

strange wolf
#

You only empowered garotte if you have deathmark

#

Then you force

#

Ifnot on every pack i pref

onyx crane
#

I am having an issue doing raid dmg

strange wolf
#

Helps allot

#

Ifstill issues wowanalyzer

warped moon
#

it just seems like a waste of vanish?

#

what am i missing here haha

strange wolf
#

So you can just have a big window with it

warped moon
#

yeah i usually save vanish for the 2nd dm

#

but i see people vanishing at 11 sec

#

which seems wasteful

strange wolf
#

I dont know why they do that. Maybe they have the two vanish talent?

warped moon
#

oh maybe

strange wolf
#

To extend on a ambush

warped moon
#

maybe thats it

strange wolf
#

Big pp dps window during box

warped moon
#

oh right the puzzlebox

strange wolf
#

Outside of that idk

onyx crane
#

I do about 80-90k dps on a good day on bosses in hc

viscid spear
analog field
#

They vanish at 11 cause they will use it for the 2m DM but they gain like 5 sec of imp gar for "free"

#

it is kinda negligible

vocal spruce
#

hi, which spec is currently best performing in raids? overall on average, not per boss.

runic hinge
buoyant herald
#

Forced slow of mobs in mplus has always been somewhat contentious but maybe it’s worse for midnight routes? Idk

faint mural
#

is it worth running negotiable contract in low keys ?

earnest edge
#

This might be a troll question, but which poisons do we use for M+? I ask because I always get confused between Ampl Poison and Instant Poison.

earnest edge
#

thanks for help ❤️

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

worthy bloom
#

So AoE Blind is still working? Didn't know. Is there something to know about the usage?

jaunty bluff
#

its a good aoe stun

worthy bloom
jaunty bluff
#

yeah if your kick is down and a couple casts are going off

#

really nice in spire with the dragonhawls and whatnot

worthy bloom
#

True

jaunty bluff
#

keeping bleeds up is prio over getting implac to 80 stacks right?

worthy bloom
#

I would think so

#

Weird that blizzards CDM doesn't show mutilate for me. Found out that it depends on talent tree. I don't have Blindside in my ASSASINATION tree so the mutilate won't even show up in CDM but if I activate it then it's back lol 😄

hallow bane
#

any advice on how to get my caustic splatter damage a bit higher? mine usually is either my 2nd or 3rd most dmg after a run but i am doing keys around the 15 level atm, could it be that the mobs die too quick perhaps or am i just shit OMEGAKEKW

#

it should be #1 right? not sure!

rocky violet
#

that's where its tuned

#

usually Gar Rup and caus

#

for me anyway

balmy condor
#

in giga high keys you might see spatter gar envenom

#

but yeah 15 probably not enough for that

hallow bane
#

thank you!

high walrus
#

did they massively reduce how much energy venomous wounds restores on kill?

#

haven't played rogue since tww so decided to alt it

#

or am I misremembering

balmy condor
#

correct

#

the on kill energy is roughly 1/10th of what it was last expansion

#

part of that is the nerf to venomous wounds as a whole

#

but it was also just bugged and doing more than it should've been

#

so kind of a double whammy

high walrus
short sparrow
#

hi, i made a macro for deathmaark and use 14, puzzle vbox, why doesnyt it work?

balmy condor
#

Deathmark is a GCD

short sparrow
#

okey

balmy condor
#

Box is a channel

short sparrow
#

so if i do press twice

#

the button

#

shouldnt it work?

balmy condor
#

No

#

You’re describing a cast sequence macro

short sparrow
#

hi whispyr, i like the look,and your videos btw, keep going on

#

so i do have to use trinket manually

balmy condor
#

Also you should be casting them in the other order

#

Yes

short sparrow
#

frist trinket then DM?

balmy condor
#

Correct

short sparrow
#

but still cant macro them

balmy condor
#

Correc

short sparrow
#

cause on sublety i usually do play

#

guidon with SD and blades works perfect

balmy condor
#

Well guidon isn’t a channel

#

Its an instant cast off-gcd

#

That’s why that works

short sparrow
#

okey that explains it

#

so if i do make use 14, then use DM

balmy condor
#

But on sub you also can’t macro it like that because of deepening shadows having a delay

short sparrow
#

and i press it once,ll use my trinket

#

and if i do press it after cast ll do DM?

#

or still not work?

balmy condor
#

Still won’t

short sparrow
#

i do haver macro..what do u mean and works perfect

#

on sub

balmy condor
#

Deepening shadows

#

The talent

drifting path
#

you need to use guidon at least 1s before proccing SDance

balmy condor
#

It doesn’t update instantly

drifting path
#

for this to interact properl;y

balmy condor
#

So you’re wasting the trinket

short sparrow
#

so

#

my trinket doesnt work?

balmy condor
#

It works

#

It just doesn’t extend your shadow dance

short sparrow
#

okey

#

big mistake then

balmy condor
#

Ye

short sparrow
#

so i do have to usr trinket manually

#

and then press the macro

balmy condor
#

Yep

short sparrow
#

why do they make our life hard? i mean ....

#

we are progressing in drakes mythic

#

do u belive assassination is better from sub tbh? i do have gear for both specs

fair crypt
#

how important is re stealth in m+ cause some tanks don’t let me

balmy condor
#

Which is the standard issue

#

Sub just bursts the orbs

short sparrow
#

oni thats i can answer u, is quite, if u plan aoe,but u may vanish to reaply garrote, and extend bleed and 20% more

balmy condor
#

Is roughly 5%

short sparrow
#

is adds in mythic so hard? i means devour shall destroy them

balmy condor
#

If you’re holding vanish for big chain pulls, you can make up the vast majority

fair crypt
#

oky thanks don’t seem too bad yeah

balmy condor
#

The orbs not really

short sparrow
fair crypt
#

wdym u do now?

balmy condor
#

I think he means he’s doing 17’s now and saying vanish is important in those keys

fair crypt
#

yeah

short sparrow
fair crypt
#

was just talking normal re stealths sometimes i can’t get them, ofc im using vanish often

balmy condor
fair crypt
#

but i see u say not too much dmg loss

balmy condor
#

It’s legit just improved garrote

#

That’s the only stealth benefit

fair crypt
#

ye

#

thought it be bigger than 5% overall

balmy condor
#

So like for an absolute worst case scenario

#

Take first pull algethar

#

Take the garrote %, and then divide by 1.5

short sparrow
#

is 25 targets, garotte is no1 skill, 20% more,is like 7% more damage

balmy condor
#

The difference is the impact of imp gar on that pull

#

So like if garrote did idk

#

16%

fair crypt
#

yeah i see

balmy condor
#

16/1.5

#

Is 10.5ish idk

short sparrow
#

do u play improve garrote whispyr?

balmy condor
#

So you lost 5.5% on that pull from no restealth

fair crypt
#

also we spread bleeds before sending cds in big pulls right?

balmy condor
short sparrow
#

to put point in scent of blood?

balmy condor
fair crypt
#

i’m sub main but after 16/17s feels like i want the prio dam

#

oki yeah

balmy condor
short sparrow
#

yes me2, i copy past from u i belive the spec

#

well i swap, for keys, cause of no priority dps, requires a bit more work than sub

#

but is doable

#

problem is..hours wait for an invite mostly

#

my only wonders tbh, if is leeching poisons worth that much

#

was wondering about get 3 points from there and get sudden demice, seems nice..but dont know the theorycraft, seems none play it..so must no worth

balmy condor
#

sudden demise is a bit of a meme talent

#

but I'm not sure what that has to do with leeching poison

short sparrow
#

u canot have both

#

so was wondering if get points on other side

balmy condor
#

leeching poison is on the class tree

short sparrow
#

oh yes, confuses name sry is 6 morning here

#

dashing scoundrel

balmy condor
#

yeah if you would play sudden demise you would do this

short sparrow
#

yes only wonder if worth tbh

balmy condor
#

not in high keys, no

#

sudden demise doesn't really "do damage"

#

it just takes damage that you would've done anyway, and deals it instantly

#

great for making your damage meter looks bigger

#

not great for actually doing the key KEKL

short sparrow
#

okey

#

got u

#

u just steal damage

balmy condor
#

exactly

short sparrow
#

from others,when mob is low

somber sparrow
#

But it does help you avoid wasting rupture or garrote when you refresh when enemy is low hp erroneously

#

😄

short sparrow
#

if is like 12 seconds

#

the rule is not reply,when mobs die soon

#

re-apply*

balmy condor
#

yeh

somber sparrow
#

I haven’t tried sudden demise in midnight though. Is a low key anything under 15?

balmy condor
#

yeah under 15 is probably fine for demise

short sparrow
#

about implacable , is like when we do 5 envenom in row..we let it drop or what?

balmy condor
#

yep

short sparrow
#

seems stupit to reward me

#

for not-doing evenom

balmy condor
#

you hit 80, drop envenom, get energy

short sparrow
#

i mean..who da fak design that

balmy condor
#

intelligent people that understand the dynamics of resources on the spec

#

it's a very well designed talent

#

the pay-off just kinda sucks

somber sparrow
#

We already have been used to pooling this just helps

#

Encourage it

short sparrow
#

wouldnt be better to reward u as long u keeping the buff?

balmy condor
#

no

#

because that's just rewarding doing nothing

short sparrow
#

so is thewre a tracker, to see the stacks u do got?

#

i count them manually,tbh

balmy condor
#

there's no gameplay in keeping the buff

#

yes, it's a buff

#

you can track it on the cdm like anything else

short sparrow
#

so cd manager

#

okey

short sparrow
onyx veldt
balmy condor
#

well there's nothing to maintain on envenom

#

envenom is 100% uptime without even tracking the buff

marsh fjord
balmy condor
onyx veldt
#

f

balmy condor
onyx veldt
balmy condor
#

you would have 185% uptime on the buff

#

full uptime, and then 85% waste KEKW

short sparrow
#

well i do track ENV, so i can refesh is a long i can delay it

balmy condor
#

maintaining the buff already rewards you in multiple ways with dashing scoundrel, rapid injection, inspiring strikes

#

the issue is that implacable is the only thing on the other side of that

#

interesting gameplay exists when there's a balance between letting it drop and keeping it going

#

and right now keeping it going is entirely free and zero effort

#

while letting it drop isn't very rewarding

short sparrow
#

well , someday we do hope they pay some attention to the class

#

i rerolled rogue in midnight due to guild needs [was DK 12 years]

balmy condor
#

rerolling from dk to rogue is definitely a choice

#

not a good choice

short sparrow
#

my expirience in class, is feeling our designer dont spend time play the class

#

i do what guild needs

balmy condor
#

in what world do you need a rogue over a dk

short sparrow
#

problem is class, brings nothing,and damage is medium tbh, well someone had to bring atrophic

balmy condor
#

nahhhhhhh

short sparrow
#

but seems..it works only on boss AA

balmy condor
#

atrophic works on pretty much everything

short sparrow
#

are u sure?

balmy condor
#

it's just not a good reduction

#

yes

short sparrow
#

well they could buff it a bit,to be..interesting buff like a total 8%

balmy condor
#

that would be pretty crazy

#

would make us required though KEKW

short sparrow
#

is 3,6%

#

all class bring something

#

required

#

apart us

marsh fjord
#

Last season i was rogue and i wanted to see how DK was feeling, and i didnt really enjoy it that much so im back on the rogue

short sparrow
#

Dk, is ok

#

even i did prefer wounds system

#

is quite survival, good aoe, brings something to the table

balmy condor
#

funny enough, as a rogue I'm soaking every group soak on belo'ren

short sparrow
#

circle is..for kids with rework

balmy condor
#

but I can only do that

#

because of death knights

#

without an AMZ I can't solo it

short sparrow
#

feint

balmy condor
#

even when rogue is doing jobs no one else can do

short sparrow
#

does it count as aoe the soak?

balmy condor
#

I still need those fucking cocksucker death knights

balmy condor
#

but feint alone isn't enough

short sparrow
#

prolly not

#

no cloack u dead

balmy condor
#

feint + amz is enough to not proc cheat

#

feint alone procs cheat

short sparrow
#

feint is a good mechanic

#

or rogue tbhm due low cost

balmy condor
#

need to save cloak to clear orbs though

short sparrow
#

i find it quite asuring in dungeons

#

ofc isnt AMS

balmy condor
#

yeah the problem with feint is that you live everything with feint, but if feint doesn't work you just fall over

short sparrow
#

but still very good, due to practically 80% up time if u want

#

ams,is still king most iconic dk ability with dg

#

so one more clarification on bleeds [ thanks a lot for trinket explain btw]

#

i do put garote and rupture, i do use crimson tempest to spread

balmy condor
#

so far so good

short sparrow
#

does it matter what target i do got when i press CT? sometimes i find my bleeds arent spread,or are spread in like totall difrent durations

balmy condor
#

no

#

CT just does its own thing

short sparrow
#

so i can swap target

balmy condor
#

it's a little buggy and sometimes just... doesn't spread?

#

but it's pretty minor

short sparrow
#

he finds and automatic spread the most duration

balmy condor
#

yes

short sparrow
#

well i find out sometimes,i do put bleeds to all

#

thats why am asking

balmy condor
#

the longest bleed should always be your main target

#

the ones that CT spreads too are always slightly shorter

short sparrow
#

okey

#

that explains why i c then in lower seconds duaration

#

so, unless i put bleed to all

#

no evenom use?

#

i mean on 5 cb

#

or 7cb

#

cause i can do more spread and then envenom

#

or when i get 5cb i use evenom no matter if i spread all

tame knoll
#

5+ because you could be wasting CP if I'm not mistaken

balmy condor
#

always 5

short sparrow
#

let me rephrase it properly

#

i do got 10 targets

#

i got bleeds on 6

#

and 5cbs

#

do i use CT to spread and go 7 then evenom

tame knoll
#

Envenom

#

And then CT

short sparrow
#

or enveom, no matter if all got bleed

balmy condor
#

you envenom at 5cp

short sparrow
#

okey

balmy condor
#

ct/fok/mutilate are generators

#

you do not press them at 5cp

tame knoll
#

Unless you generate wife aggro and look away for two seconds 👀

short sparrow
#

so rupture too on 5 cbs

tame knoll
#

Yes ^_^

short sparrow
#

or worth 7 before dm and spread

balmy condor
#

yes, also 5

tame knoll
#

If you hit 5 CPs apply rupture if needed. If not needed Evenom.

balmy condor
#

if you're at 5, you use a finisher

#

there is no situation where you ever press a generator at 5

tame knoll
#

Honestly I'm really hoping for some good rogue attention soon.

#

Let me rephrase. Good Assa attention soon

short sparrow
#

well CT

#

was attention tbh, compared be4

#

i liked the change tbh

#

before that..sry was shitplay

tame knoll
#

I'm mainly talking about a little number fluffing. I like the playstyle. Hero talents not so much but myeh.

#

And for the love of all things I hate the puzzle box LMAO

short sparrow
#

well..if they fix energy a bit

#

would be ok

#

i do belive, energy doesnt regeneration via poisons and talents correct in aoe

#

or at least in big aoe

#

with so many targets i should be ..perma 100

marsh fjord
short sparrow
#

so i do belive we got bugs

marsh fjord
#

It's a design decision

tame knoll
#

I'm not finding myself sub 75% energy in most aoe circumstances

marsh fjord
#

You actually have more energy in ST now then last season but in aoe you dont

tame knoll
#

Because FOK doesn't cost a lot

marsh fjord
#

@balmy condor What was it again 8 energy per target? and now its 1 right?

#

Before the changes

tame knoll
#

As soon as numbers start dwindling that's different

balmy condor
#

8 to 3

#

and the target scaling

marsh fjord
#

ah it was 8 to 3

short sparrow
#

Fok shouldbe removed,and exist only CT imho, i find it no reason exist nowdays

balmy condor
#

the target scaling is kinda confusing

tame knoll
#

I disagree.

balmy condor
#

well fok/ct exist because it's energy management

tame knoll
#

CT spreads bleeds. It's already an amazing ability for us in AOE therefor it costs more to use

short sparrow
#

brb getting breakfast, but i do enjoy the conversation tonight seems isightfull, learning things

grave nova
#

On a scale of sub to outlaw, how simple is sin?

balmy condor
#

much closer to sub than to outlaw

grave nova
balmy condor
#

it's been simplified since then

#

but that is the core of it, yes

#

I'm not sure what the 4 bleeds would've been

#

I can only think of garrote, rupture, crimson tempest

#

crimson tempest isn't a dot anymore

#

so that's at least -1

grave nova
#

Its more than 0 so thats a lot

balmy condor
#

dot spec has dots BearNotesHappy

grave nova
#

Is crimson like black powder now or something?

balmy condor
#

it's a generator like fan of knives which spreads bleeds

grave nova
#

Awesome

#

Sub is just starting to underperform and i refuse to play current outlaw

Yes

unfortunately tried everything and when i switch to jundies it lua's

all other profiles are fine

Delete saved variables from platy (make a backup) and install the profile fresh again. Should work. If not revert to an older platy version

Thx boss

frosty oxide
#

Am I crazy or is the Deal fate talent bugged and not procing with seal fate all the time?

balmy condor
#

what's a situation where you're seeing that

#

should just give you +1 cp

frosty oxide
#

So if I crit with Mutilate and I have seal fate and deal fate it should be five?

balmy condor
#

if you crit with both mutilate attacks, yes

frosty oxide
#

Ok, 👌

#

Didn't realize that each attack on Mutilate had to crit.

balmy condor
#

yeah, mutilate is 2 cp baseline

#

+1 cp for each hand

#

and if either hand crits, then deal fate gives 1 additional

#

so you should either get 2, 4, or 5

crude helm
#

wait

#

this supports my shiv at 4 cps cope

#

since you cant get 3

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

it does support the cope

Do I envenom at 5cp or nah

balmy condor
#

yep

#

all finishers at 5cp

whole skiff
#

6 and 7 is just a bonus if you get good crits?

balmy condor
#

yep

whole skiff
#

Thanks

balmy condor
#

you would always generate on 4

#

because you need 5 or more to flip a coin

#

and get other bonuses

#

but generating on 5 or more is just potential wasted cp

whole skiff
#

Same for m+

#

?

balmy condor
#

yes, this is just core mechanics of the spec

is there any cap on haste in m+ ?

ahh dungeonslice sims are valid now?

#

back then they were just meh ignore

grim jay
#

they always (?) were

#

like for ages

balmy condor
#

rogue has been using dungeonslice since legion

narrow nymph
#

oh okey 😄

grim jay
#

they just suck for some other classes

#

because they dont get maintained

balmy condor
#

or the theorycrafters recommend other stuff

#

mythic+ sims in general is kind of a big argument in the tc community

grim jay
#

ye, DK people are using dungeonroute iirc

narrow nymph
#

ye thats what my friends told me take this route sim witht that etc.

#

never use slice

balmy condor
#

mages are still doing patchwerk aoe, but now they're doing composite patchwerk aoes in one sims together

jade abyss
balmy condor
#

two more steps and the mages will have re-invented dungeonslice

#

it's almost there

grim jay
balmy condor
#

oh boy I get to repost this again

rare stone
#

yeah frost dk discord says to use dungeonroute only (I just patchwerk 8 target, 1 min 30 to save my brain)

balmy condor
#

I don't have the patience to unpack that I'm afraid

narrow nymph
rare stone
#

Literally same lmao

grim jay
#

dslice and dungeonroute both have an adequate amount of ST

#

so its kinda ST biased

rare stone
#

rogue is only one I dsclice on

grim jay
#

if you do it that way

balmy condor
#

why are we simming aoe and single target seperately in the name of saving brain

#

instead of just using dungeonslice and getting both

subtle tundra
narrow nymph
#

ye i didnt know that 😄

rare stone
#

Dungeon slice doesn't track frost dk properly even gives a big warning " don't do this innacurate"

idle socket
#

if i put my dots on a boss before a increased dmg taken phase starts like bird in AA or last boss in seat, do i need to reapply them or not? and how to time my marks perfectly to pop in dmg phase?

rare stone
#

For context too

balmy condor
rare stone
#

That's a lotta warnings

balmy condor
#

when you press cds depends a little on the duration of the amp

#

but ideally your first gcd of the amp would be deathmark if the amp lasts the full deathmark, otherwise kingsbane should be your first gcd if its shorter

idle socket
#

ok then i have to research, dmg amp in seat is a bit but the amp in AA is pretty short right? only when boss is stunned right?

balmy condor
#

yeah

idle socket
#

ok ok thats tuff to time

balmy condor
#

I mean if you're playing assa, you can't really time it around that

#

you're playing a dot spec trying to condense a 20 second window into like a 5 second window

#

just won't work

idle socket
#

im new to assa tbh swapping from outlaw and want to minmax

#

acutally not swapping but imo assa is better in some situations so i need to learn

idle socket
balmy condor
#

puzzle box right before the amp starts, then cds

idle socket
#

ok so puzzlebox in AA when last orb get put in and seat when the cast is about to end ig

#

thx for your advices my goat

#

assa seems real fun ngl

balmy condor
#

it is fun, dots and poisons are great happy

idle socket
#

ye but yesterday i did some keys with a frostmage premade and we both took same targets thats a bit meeeh

grim jay
#

so its kinda ew

keen raven
#

Asa absolute melts prio targets

echo hound
#

In M+, if your garotte is about to run out, do you refresh rupture aswell before spreading with CT regardless of time left on rupture? Like if you have 3 seconds left on garotte do you reapply rupture aswell before CT even if rupture has maybe 12 seconds left or do you just CT the Garotte and wait for rupture pandemic Window and CT again?

#

Dont know if that made Any sense ^

keen raven
#

if you think itl live outside the rupture window then yea

#

or if you think itl be chained into next pack then yea

echo hound
#

So assuming the pack lives Long enough, its fine to respread a rupture with more than 8 seconds left?

keen raven
#

its all just dependent on how long the pack will live

#

you always want bleeds rolling till they die

#

so if ur rupture is gonna run out and has like 7secs left and theyre gonna live 15-20 you should reapply

echo hound
#

That makes sense thanks. Im thinking you would want to limit the amount of CT’s you cast over FoK where possible if all targets have bleed

keen raven
#

a lot of the times in higher keys tho ill reapply improved garrote/rupture early in a pack when u dont get full value

#

because i know ill have the energy for ct

#

vs when theres less mobs

#

so like even tho my garrotes at say 15sec ill vanish garotte/rupture again and reapply cts

#

its kinda just a feel thing/getting used to how packs are pulled/higher key levels

#

same thing with i actually apply a non improved garrote over my old garrote if the tank is chain pulling if it has a couple secs left so i can ct earlier/etc

#

I really wish they made thistle tea not auto use cus in keys it is actually grief

#

if youre smart you can actually not proc thistle tea and save it for scenarios like an upcoming boss/prio mob/scary pack/etc

echo hound
#

Yeah Thistle tea as a whole feels horrendous or rather horrendous when you dont have it. I do not understand how blizzard could argue that that is a fun talent in its current itteration

keen raven
#

They just need to make it so its not auto use..

#

idk why you cant toggle it

#

its so dumb

grim jay
#

would be less fun for most if it doesnt exist

grim jay
keen raven
grim jay
#

no its pretty right

keen raven
#

not in high level keys or raid

#

for pure sim/st sure

grim jay
#

there aswell

keen raven
#

but not in high skill expression

grim jay
#

yes even there

keen raven
#

last thing ud wana be doing

#

is using a thistle tea

#

on a mon

#

mob

#

with 2% left

#

it is awful

grim jay
#

you could just not mindlessly spam your buttons. wait, that sounds like skillexpression

#

what a plot twist

keen raven
#

which is what u dob

#

but they should just make it an on use

#

making an ability auto use is awful

grim jay
#

it was and people were crying

#

it absolutely doesnt matter in the grand scheme of things, even less in raid than it does in m+, but in m+ the situations where you could waste it are niche

#

and definitely the players own fault aswell

keen raven
#

theres a lot of scenarios where u could waste it

#

its just bad

#

it just feels bad

grim jay
#

no there is just one, which is you spaming buttons for no reason

keen raven
#

just agree to disagree

grim jay
#

if the last mob has 2% hp, you dont really have much of a business to hack away at your keyboard

keen raven
#

if its ab to do its scary mechanic

#

sometimes u do

#

rogue is like

#

1 of the only classes rn

#

that is omega resource starved

#

and then that has an auto use on an ability if ur low on resources

#

its just bad design

#

im not talking ab it anymore

#

agree to disagree

grim jay
#

yeah the insane st outside of cds will really get it killed much faster. also what you just said is the definition of a niche situation

drifting cloud
#

keen raven

where u have to micromanage not proccing it

maybe in yours ig, rarely encountered it

and its toxic af

#

r u doing 21s?

grim jay

rn I'm not doing any high keys on rogue, but auto proc is a thing for quite some time now

its another braindead argument like "whispyr doesnt do high m+, how dare he do things for sin on that matter!11!111!1!"

still nymph
keen raven
#

i mean some1 was asking about min max/scenarios for keys

#

and i gave advice

#

and then u chimed in saying its a non opinion

#

when u havent even done keys

#

lmao

grim jay
#

I did keys in many seasons where it already was a thing, I did 18s and 19s on rogue this season and I'm just playing a different class

#

idk how you can be that narrowminded

#

its actually incredible

#

and I said tea is a non-issue, not that it doesnt feel bad

#

which is defacto is

boreal jay
#

Nobody likes w8ing on energy not pressing shit right? Even the couple seconds w8ing on envenom to fall off is cringe af

keen raven
#

^

grim jay
#

considering we had many things on that topic over the seasons, it was a non-issue before tea got nerfed and even the actual high m+ers arent complaining

keen raven
#

wasting a thistle tea as a mob is dying or when you didnt wana proc it feels even worse

grim jay
#

we can agree that it feels bad ye

still nymph
grim jay

#

You don't want to proc tea when the pack is dying but if you do it is not the end of the world

still nymph
keen raven
#

if its get a 2nd cast off

#

feelcraft is an opinion but it doesn't mean i can say w/e stupid thing I want and then say agree to disagree

keen raven
#

and the thistle tea can be the difference of dps

#

vs not

#

90% of the time thistle tea is a non issue

analog field
#

99% of the time

keen raven
#

but theres still lots of times where auto use is an issue

analog field
#

you losing an envenom casts does not brick a key

#

sorry ifyou get sad hearing this

but it is literally mut mut envenom (and even less)

But no mob was like 0.01 %

@balmy condor mighty man of data

please enlighten either side

keen raven
#

its not about sim or st or pack data lmao

grim jay
#

is the cup of tea half empty or is it half full

keen raven
#

its the same way

keen raven
#

where you could waste thistle tea before a damage amp phase

grim jay
#

not only sim data

keen raven
#

and then not have the energy to take advantage of the damage amp

analog field
#

yes and this is skill issue, but yet losing an envenom cast in amp

#

is not bricking your key

#

stop telling this to yourself

keen raven
#

99% of the times it doesnt

analog field
#

if you bricked a 21 it is because of skill issue

#

not losing tea cast

keen raven
#

but it has happened

#

due to a prio mob living

#

and getting a 2nd cast off

#

that kills the group

analog field
#

xd

keen raven
#

and regardless

#

that isnt the argument

analog field
#

the argument is that thistle tea is fine and irrelevant

#

everything else is wrong

keen raven
#

the argument is therre is dps gains and merit to holding thistle tea for a next pack/damage amp in keys/high content

grim jay
#

there are minor gains and merit for not wasting minor gains if you could just get them ye

#

not that they will get you somewhere

analog field
#

I mean there are many ultra min maxes for every spec and this is one for assa

#

no one disagrees with the idea

#

we are disagreeing that it makes a difference

keen raven
#

i mean

#

thats literally

#

what yall have said

#

is it doesnt matter

analog field
#

losing 2 auto attacks is way bigger than this

keen raven

and makes no difference

what we talkin bout

youre saying

it was even said multiple times that it can FEEL bad

how about we just remove tea as a talent

grim jay
hollow dirge
#

i agree. replace it by coffee, grant 200 energy

still nymph
grim jay
#

that was about performance impact

frosty cedar
#

you dont really play around tea at all. If you are coming up to a ST dmg amp phase with CDs and your not running blindside, yes, you can run out of energy during DMKB if you start your DMKB at like 100 energy, so just pool a little before the amp phase if you have no tea, on multi target you aint gonna be running out of energy anyway Sinscheme

still nymph
# grim jay that was about performance impact

no, it was a reaction to "Yeah Thistle tea as a whole feels horrendous or rather horrendous when you dont have it. " into "it should not auto use". it was feel since the beginning

#

you dont need to play around it. sure. just as you dont need to shiv for the last CP on DS, but it gives depth

hollow dirge
# hollow dirge i agree. replace it by coffee, grant 200 energy

optional 2 tier talent building into it, matcha , and cocaine, matcha changes your skin color to green when you use it, cocaine change is you get 1000 energy over 15 sec, but you crash after , lowering your energy regen by 30% for the next 15 sec after the buff part expires

grim jay
#

fam

#

just let it rest

hollow dirge
keen raven
#

dmg amp phases or prio mobs where ur not in cds

#

where saving tea is a big increase

#

its just optimization/min max

frosty cedar
#

im not really an expert on m+ so sure I can see that, but you definitely never play around it in raid 👍 im guessing yall were talking about m+

still nymph
#

i see it the same. it is not a massive gain, but it is a measurable one. therefore i just want the option to disable auto use

keen raven
#

whole argument is it isnt a non factor and there is unique scenarios that can make an impact or increase ur dps, should just have the ability to toggle it to use/auto use

keen raven
#

might be like 1 scenario and raid where u can hold it but thats ab iut

#

but in keys theres a lot

frosty cedar
#

sure, some packs with tea available feel completely different to some without, if your talking about a no CD angle with say low target count so your not saturated anyway, or your coming into the pack off a chainpull at low energy

#

personally I was a fan of being able to press tea rather than it being auto consume

keen raven
#

also scenarios where you might actually not be able to ct in a pack

#

bunc hof stuff

frosty cedar
#

but if they made it auto consume they might as well have just buffed are default energy if they wanted to achieve that
