but even in those it was like 2.5% instead of 3.6% in the worst case

#

community just loves losing their fucking mind over every little thing

honest oxide
#

yeah, it only helps with direct dam from a target affected by the poison right

#

just trying to understand it a bit better is all

balmy condor
#

yes, but 99% of the time, the mechanics are attributed to a target

spice surge
#

Damage that is coded to come from the targets

balmy condor
#

like the obelisks on alleria

#

those aren't "alleria doing damage", but they are attributed to alleria

#

so it counts as damage from her

#

which means atrophic works

spice surge
#

Generally just expect it to work unless definitely proven otherwise

balmy condor
#

ye

#

the situations where it doesn't work are incredibly rare

honest oxide
#

sweet, sending that over to my guild so they have a baseline

#

thanks guys

storm forum
#

I thought on dragons xalatath was doing some of the mechanics

#

is it actually attributed to one of the dragons under the hood or something?

balmy condor
#

yeh I guess the dot

#

I forget that's a mechanic sometimes

marsh fjord
#

guys if patch 12.1 is other void related raid i might kms

spice surge
#

Its trolls

marsh fjord
balmy condor
#

wait until I tell you what we're fighting for the next 3 years

hushed vortex
#

spec matter? when top 1000 its just about 3 dps class?

balmy condor
#

what does that mean

spice surge
#

Its void with some random .1 for fun patches

#

Like undermine and the troll island to the east of zulaman

hushed vortex
#

one of those, or just quit

marsh fjord
#

if not

#

it doesnt matter

hushed vortex
#

try to queu as rogue, tell me

#

Well yeah pugging while playing nonmeta specs have always been like that

balmy condor
#

idk what the fascination is of playing an rpg and then constantly complaining about the class or spec you play

#

like I just play rogue cause rogue is sick idk

#

low cortisol type shit

#

I don't like outlaw? okay then I won't play outlaw

#

I like outlaw? okay me play outlaw then

fresh kelp
marsh fjord
#

Bro i actually love queing with rogue because yes you rarely get invited but when i do and i out dps a unholy DK i know i'm the shit

balmy condor
#

play with guild

#

why are we playing queue simulator mmo

storm forum
#

Pushing with guildies this season has been so fucking fun

balmy condor
#

rahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm just so mad that I'm choosing to play the game in the most miserable way possible ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it just makes me so mad

storm forum
#

I know it means jack shit cause we're on a tiny server, but also feels good to be rank 1 on my server

balmy condor
#

I'm not going to spend time making friends though fuck you whispyr I'm just going to sit in queue and bitch on the internet for hours every day while I don't get invited

#

reeeeeeeeeeeeee

storm forum
bright turret
#

who would want to be friends with a filthy rogue though? they dont even make your numbers bigger

storm forum
#

Also phys comp is legit. Find ur other offmeta friends and flip off the meta teams

marsh fjord
balmy condor
#

like people just deadass choose to make themselves miserable and lonely and then bitch about how much the game sucks

#

I don't get it

ok ty

balmy condor
#

I meet friends in pugs too

lime edge
#

if ur mutilate crits, does the whole bleed scale off the crit dmg or no

#

and can it crit again

balmy condor
#

I joined a random group and they were like "yo disc?"

#

and then we ran keys for two hours in the middle of the night

#

and one of them is actually the gayest little australian man I've ever met

#

was tons of fun

balmy condor
#

it's 25% of the damage you dealt with mutilate

#

and refreshing it doesn't lose you damage

lime edge
#

oh wtf

balmy condor
#

(it can't crit, because it's a residual)

lime edge

#

I can see why the little guy might get frustrated with trying to M+. I just want to coin 2 10s real quick, but it's basically impossible to get an invite at 280+ on a Tuesday, when I know people will do half my damage but land the invite simply for being the right spec/class

storm forum
#

And you realize their meme channel is just straight evil

proven kettle
#

oh not the most heinous of channels

#

random pug discords

ornate aspen
#

Are 10s the wall for rogue? That's not my experience. I have middling IO and am above 280 and have no problems getting invited any time of day

mortal crag
#

Na

#

It’s just real busy after reset so there’s a ton of people clicking

bright turret
#

I'd say I've spent 90 minutes today just trying to get into a 10 nexus with no luck, but that's always Tuesday. It gets easier later in the week for whatever reason

ornate aspen
#

If I try to pug like 15s sure, 10s? Easy

bright turret
#

Saturday is practically instant invite, Tuesdays are just hard

spice surge

#

Yea I'm not bitter about it, I fully expect and understand why

i spent 3 hours waiting for a tank for my own key last night.

if youre having trouble, just make your own key groups

i dont think ive sat for more than 15min forming this whole season

I'm afraid that doesn't fit my doomer agenda

@balmy condor do you think Deathmark needs more love fore mythic plus?

ornate aspen
# muted oracle no lol

Yeah that's what im saying, but someone else was posting about how they can't get into keys peeposhrug

#

Its those same people that keep trying to get M+ Solo queue added.
Like bro just go play league, M+ actually does a pretty good job of incentivizing making friends in an MMO, why would you want to turn that into a lobby game?

muted oracle

Idk deathstalker is pretty sin flavoured

heroic tree debuff to go with your CD debuffs

#

Is Adamantite Sharpening Stone on primary weapon better than Phoenix Oil on Sin right now?

spice surge
#

Yes

turbid yacht
#

I simmed it and it showed as worse, is something weird with the sims? The HTML reports show the increased weapon damage on the weapons.

#

how bad is it to have double crafted weapons If I have myth BiS in my other gear slots?

#

super unlucker with weapon drops/rolls 🙁

balmy condor
#

bonus roll it

storm forum
#

thats half the reason we suggest rolling for pit

#

cause its guaranteed this week if you get 1 bonus from unlucky vault

shell remnant
#

used them. no heroic or myth dagger drops after 25+ runs

#

and used my other bonus rolls for trinket first 2 weeks

onyx veldt
#

also ive never use droptimizer before what does this means

#

theyre not all upgrades right?

balmy condor
#

looks like just dagger and trinkets

onyx veldt
#

oh okok

#

Dumb question. Do I need puzzle box up before I apply bleeds is it ok to hit it after

Hi guys, I have been playing sub this entire season and want to push past +15s, are there any hard numbers for stats I need to focus on? Like min haste, mastery and crit? Right now im at 32% Crit, 17% Haste and 48% Mastery

bright turret
#

oh no that meme is real

balmy condor

@frosty cedar happy sinko del mayo loser

bruh i had a generational pull

and then we fucking wiped

all the adds spawned on top of me in the opener

#

perfect ct spread

balmy condor
#

I was a full 25k lower the pull prior

novel dragon
#

Any tips for lightblinded vanguard mythic?

#

save CDs for when all 3 are stacked? use on CD? FoK always?

#

start focusing first one in execute range?

graceful bane
#

if you dont have blindside talented FoK always

#

since it'll always be 2+

#

for cd's in beginning I send it either on senn or the ret cause bel leaves to early for it to finish

novel dragon
#

gotta send on ret, they take bonus damage on pull- but ok FoK always, I was mutilating on 2 target w/o blindside

coral ibex
#

im over here like what if i got sat for paladins right haha DEAD

When it comes to killing Dragons as Sin, most builds go for the Sudden Death sniping of the orbs, but there are a few who just use the build suggested in the FAQ. Most logs I've checked are using Mutilate instead of FoK as builders in that fight when there are 2 targets.

What should I be using as builder on Dragons and Vanguard? Does Secondary Poisoning play a part in it?

coral ibex
#

do i just go ST on lura

#

are there pub logs yet

drifting cloud
#

no point playing anything other than caustic

balmy condor

#

whats the lore with l'ura, why are there no public kills of it for sin? is there something about timings that sin is particularly bad at

something something in stealth

balmy condor

nothing wrong with sin

Whoever was doing the number tuning on it played with one of the historical "pick up a thing" passive trinkets in the past and beat the shit out of whoever designed a newer shittier one and then made the numbers terrible so no one would ever wanna grief themselves using it

#

ngl i was running CT still and id prolly lose 1/3 my dmg to crystals if i took it off, but prolly worth anyway idk

golden loom
#

only hero pieces I have left is shoulders and rings so I hit the only item I would take from vault 🔥

fallow canopy
worn geyser
#

yeah probably, i think our group is still in the optimization for that a bit since its first night for us, sin feels mega useless in p1 lmao

#

just kinda target dummy and dodge the slowest glaives of all time simulator

placid wave
#

yeah thats part of the reason there are so few sin logs

#

maybe(?)

worn geyser
#

although i was checking charrends logs and on their kill pull he did less crystal dam on sub than I averaged on sin so idk crystal dam prolly just irrelevant and its p2/3 waiting game

#

I kinda also underestimated how inflated pull count is to p1 wipes, like we had 65 pulls in one night tonight lol, its straight snooze fest if u dont have a job other than kick

incredible how my damage increased once i enchanted/gem my gear

#

Could someone explain Sudden Demise? Is it even working? I have a nearly full duration Garrotte and Rupture on a mob here that has ~3k health left, how is that possible with this talent?

balmy condor
#

zero clue why weapon durability is based on amount of white hits

cause ur using it more clueless

fucks it

Awesome, so is it only useful in Mythic+, is anyone even running it?

in 10s

balmy condor

not in high keys

#

or if you're a degenerate on mythic dragons

#

pay off your guild to not hit orbs

So, basically for meter padding and fucking around in 10s?

balmy condor

correct

I got hero puzzle box on Monday (have had bad luck on drops). And now I guess it gets replaced. 😂

#

It feels so annoying to use though

honest flower
#

Best Feeling ever to just relax during puzzle box before the big damage. 😂 😂 😂

rugged basalt
#

It gets better it gets worse it gets better

#

Get box get better box have to use box :(

#

Whispyr hasn’t uploaded in 3 weeks is our spec dead? Should I swap to outlaw? ist es over für mich? I do normal raid and heroic dungeons

#

yes

#

got puzzlebox in vault, that saves some bonus rolls in academy next week I guess

#

I’m gonna run some PoS today…precisely two

#

same I guess

#

Best enchants? Do I get 2x rendorei?

analog hedge
#

had a dream where we can cast puzzle box while moving

balmy condor
#

depends on your stats

rugged basalt
grim jay
#

And less flexible than being able to move

#

Most of the issues people have with the cast are kinda related to not being able to move

buoyant herald
#

My favourite is when the tank plants, I’ve got some bleeds out as he gathered, I’m ready to go boom

#

I hit my puzzle box

#

Tank pops speed pot and runs 40yds away while I’m casting

rugged basalt
#

I’m just relieved it doesn’t have us doing a task after channeling it

buoyant herald
#

Hahahaha true

#

I was very happy ignoring transmitter tbh

keen raven
grim jay
#

Cant wait for branch being in the rotation again

rugged basalt
#

Im doing it weird though. Its supposed to be envenom box then cd but im keeping 5 cp, boxing and then doing an envenom before cds

buoyant herald
#

Ooo branch yeah true

#

Huge in amirdrassil

rugged basalt
#

Insurance in case things get chaotic and I don’t get to do my shit within those 5 sec after env

#

What that

buoyant herald
#

Can we even use branch without the weakaura? 🤔

lime lantern
#

Guidon 3rd week in a row and still no gaze 🙁

It’s a sign

I alrdy had it before getting it in vault 3 weeks in a row, sad 😄

vagrant hearth
#

what ´were the aoe sim settings or do i just put dungeon slice?

high dust
#

Finally... 🥲

vagrant hearth
#

i remember dungeonslice not being accurate

keen raven
#

im not a big fan of dslice tbh

#

i just like choosing 5-10 mobs at 20-40sec windows with/wo lust

golden loom
vagrant hearth
#

kk ty

keen raven
#

can sim with dif flasks to see weighting/etc

golden loom
#

I mean when the theorycrafters for the class/spec recommend dslice I just follow that

keen raven
#

Its okay but doesnt really help you understand and it doesnt really sim the best

#

IE you can run 5-10 diff scenarios of second specific intervals based on pack size and get an understanding of your weightings vs dif mob/timing

#

Asa rn just feels like crit is king

#

even when i think i have way too much crit everything with crit just sims better

golden loom
#

I run the exact same gear with only changing a ring for m+/raid anyways

#

so idk what kind of hidden knowledge those sims ur running can give

keen raven
#

its more so for keys just to see if its worth swapping a flask or ring for

golden loom
#

yeah but then if ur only simming 20 seconds mass aoe

#

that tells you nothing about the bosses in the dungeon

#

or anything else

#

which is why dslice while not perfect is atleast something

keen raven
#

yea but u just sim a boss

#

u just sim 2-4 min or whatever it is

#

in same gear/settings

golden loom
#

why go through all that hassle when dslice does the same and then you are still gonna end up with the same gear/consumes whatever else anyways garf

keen raven
#

because i like understanding my classes stats/#s in different scenarios

golden loom
#

problem there is also that the API surely isnt optimized for 10 target 20 seconds

buoyant herald
#

No matter what I do my sims still want more crit/haste bits

#

I guess puzzy b does that

normal mist
#

It does do that

keen raven
#

its psmall differences tho ngl

tacit canyon
#

so in m+ / aoe situations, I do my opener with empowered garrote and rupture then spread my bleeds. Then I find that Garrote falls of quite a bit faster than rupture. In that window between me re-applying garrote, and before re-applying my rupture, do I still spread bleeds with crimson tempest, or do I build spend with FoK / envenom before I can re-apply rupture AND then spread bleeds with crimson tempest? I'm confused here

keen raven
tacit canyon
#

Do you do Garrote > Garrote in opener then? Or Garrote > FOK > Rupture > Garrote?

keen raven
#

You're opener should a lot of the time be garrote, fan of knive, rupture garrote ct envenom

#

spread to all targets

#

puzzle box pop cds

#

sometimes depending on pack timing ill actually vanish and reapply the longer garrote with ct during cds

tacit canyon
#

surely in aoe you puzzle box + cds before spreading bleeds?

keen raven
tacit canyon
#

Ah okay. And how would one decide that? Like if it's a 14. Do you just guesstimate?

golden loom
#

in a 14 you for sure just slam cds

tacit canyon
#

Cause it's hard to track whether my dps buddies have CDs up or not

#

Ah okay

keen raven
#

14 sht prob dying quick af u just cd

tacit canyon
#

yes

#

but 16+ maybe do what you said?

#

Or even higher?

keen raven
#

uh idk depends on ur dps/speed XD idk im doin 21s atm

tacit canyon
#

ait ait

keen raven
#

a lot of asa is feel tbh

tacit canyon
#

i'll try to feel it more lul

keen raven
#

XD

#

but basically if u can get all ur bleeds up and full puzzle box value its better to get full bleeds rolling first

#

until like 17-18+s id presume u can just cd first

open mantle
#

for rotation do i apply bleeds then pop cds

#

coz before i was popping cds before all bleeds were up

tawny geyser
#

Holy SOCKET...

lone lava
#

Socket is like 10ilvl upgrade, feels better to grab a socket now than ever tbh. Considering the bonus roll loot source as well.

#

I would probably always grab a socket or bonus roll unless there is a bis or useful item with tretiary stat

buoyant herald
#

well you're gonna run out of good bonus rolls soon

golden loom
#

quick lil +14 pit having an aug really boosts the ego doesnt it garf

buoyant herald
#

aug goes crazy

rugged basalt
#

Only thing I don’t like having done is a third craft

although crashing back to reality isn't great when you realise whats going on

golden loom
rugged basalt
#

Need me an aug shaman party

buoyant herald
#

yeah we'll go with that

golden loom
#

bonus rolled this aswell but not using 20 crests on it to change MH stats garf

buoyant herald
#

i need that and the neck still, so im in pit prison this week too

#

I have vorasius dagger so I mainly did pit for ring

buoyant herald
#

got belt, legs, cloak so far rip

belt ok at least

golden loom
balmy condor
#

we're not a vers spec

lone lava
#

Is any class vers hungry atm?

balmy condor
#

definitely more than assa

#

vers is terribad

misty holly
#

Random Stat? It might not roll vers

#

If it is locked in to vers, that just means pvp ring.

buoyant herald
#

vers will be good in s3, trust

#

he's referring to the proc not scaling with vers

#

well

#

it does

#

but we don't have any

#

so proc more valuable for a spec that does

#

resto shaman prio, crit vers stack, easy

#

There’s no benefit from hitting 285 on all slots aside from crest discount for alts, right?

balmy condor
#

correct

limber dagger
#

ive got champ shoes, myth wrist and belt and heroic back. do i craft embel shoes because its the highest value or back because its lower stat budget in the long run?

shadow wedge
balmy condor
#

long run would be wrists

rugged basalt
#

There was a thing to remove embellishment via a recraft

limber dagger
#

yea but the gold 😢

rugged basalt
#

I thought the worry would’ve been the crests 😅

limber dagger
#

ive got 600 crests to farm cause its an alt 👀

rugged basalt
#

You’ll make gold back eventually

limber dagger
#

its a worry but yknow haha

rugged basalt
#

Time to gather and WQ

grim jay
#

just boost 10s

#

or raid

limber dagger
#

gathering is so low gold already its annoying

#

should probably boost

#

but its demotivating cause siting there and queueing for boosts for 30 mins feels ass

grim jay
#

10s are kinda free gold since you can just do those on a char you wanna get your vault with

#

idk, big sites usually are rather fast

#

on the boosts

rugged basalt
#

I thought prices for 10s would’ve crashed by now bc people can just rawdog them

grim jay
#

the market for 10s is mostly just random people that wanna drag their lowgear chars through smth

#

that just hit max lvl

#

and even it the prices arent high, if you do those runs anyways for your vault, you might aswell get gold for it

brave gyro
#

Augs have it so easy, nobody ever blames them, cuz details don't show it.
But when i log the run and they are still bottom of the barrell, they quickly leave party Sus

grim jay
#

details shows buff uptime

#

holy scuffed sentence

brave gyro
#

xD

rugged basalt
#

Does details track them incorrectly too since it’s just a skin

grim jay
#

ye

#

there was that timeframe where details had an estimate

#

but I guess that got lost with the code restrictions

rugged basalt

We need an addon just to narc on augs

How should we be simming sin in dslice? It’s simming way less than outlaw & sub for me

Hey - what raidbot sim setup would you use for Vangard mythic?
Cleave add 2 bosses? (will that be actuallty 2 bossen and 2 adds?)
Patchwerk 2 bosses or 3 bosses?

cleave add 2 boss yes

#

M+ big pulls like first one of nexus, do we spam CT to spread bleed before popping cds? Or just do acouple, or go straight into cds then CT spread. It feels like it wastes so much time doing either way

still nymph
#

if they live the full duration of you cds after spreading you can do that. otherwise cds into spread.

#

or with other words everything under probably +17 you go cds first

I’d be shocked if a guild asks the rogue to outlaw in a raid

I would’ve assumed sin-sub swaps

are there already sims for the new finger coming in 12.0.7?

#

ah i forgot you can roll twice as many times in m+

its about the odds aswell

that's probably a season 2 thing

we're not a vers spec

is anyone really?

balmy condor

more than we are

golden loom
earnest imp
#

sounds like a tank ring

#

to me

#

espicially if it doesnt have the -dmg thing tanks have with trinkets thats gonna be dope

balmy condor
#

ye

#

that is my read as well

#

it's gonna be tank prio unless the random stats are giga shit

#

in which case probably whoever the secondaries fit the best

What spec I play for L’ura as a rogue who has gear for all rogue specs hello help tyvm have a day good?

any recommendations on where to spend 3 bonus rolls? Pit of Saron looks promising. could get crit haste mainhand, wedding ring. possibly also the necklace, but I already have the crit haste neck from raid Hmm

Can someone tells me if assa is topping boss dmg why ppl keep playing sub in beloren + L'ura? Can understand Beloren cuz burst is a bit higher but why L'ura?

Don’t we prefer ST in beloren? Does it change in M raid?

subtle tundra
rugged basalt
subtle tundra

also add dmg is very important!

#

which sub does better

strange onyx
subtle tundra
#

on lura

balmy condor
#

you have to dps hold on belo

#

and sub bursts harder

#

so

#

sub fight

rugged basalt
#

Ah.

subtle tundra
#

he said he understood on beloren.........

rugged basalt
#

Submissive fight it is

strange onyx
rugged basalt
#

Will continue to assa

#

also, why did I get a duplicate in my vault? didn't we have some sort of protection against getting loot from raid you already have?

granite tusk
#

Yeah can understand Beloren, but L'ura adds arent that hard? im gonna start L'ura tomorrow

safe kestrel
#

great

subtle tundra
#

they are

if you think they arent hard you will have a surprise

what is it with tanks chaining the final ad into another big pack instead of letting us reset stealth

balmy condor
#

speeding up the key

rare stone
#

like 0.5 more seconds, restealth, more damage for next pack

balmy condor
#

maybe not the last add, but like

#

chaining is very strong

rare stone
#

100% different if they are chaining quick

#

but they're dangling the last ad everytime in 14/15's

frosty cedar
#

chaining is strong.. break free of your chains ..

rare stone
#

I mean im sure its just because of pugging and not having a dedicated group but like

#

idk how to play around it

spice surge

Stop thinking about it. Getting a restealth doesnt matter much at all

If he runs with a mob on 2% just stay back a bit and drop combat. If he runs into the next pack with 4 mobs on 30% health think of all the execute you get as the other dps send cds on the new mo s

spice surge
#

But also its not like improved garrote makes you do like 30% more damage total

I like tanks chaining but that feels more like extending the pull if u know what I mean

what does it mean to "pandemic" a garrote?

iron thorn
#

i think i just got some good upgrades during that

#

like a myth puzzyb and gaze

#

!pandemic

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

astral pine
#

oh sweet

#

ty

iron thorn
#

yw

astral pine
#

honestly had a feeling it was just the term for extending it but wasnt sure

iron thorn
#

term originally comes from a warlock talent iirc

buoyant herald
#

that is indeed where it started, was a talent in MoP i believe

#

then they realised it was kinda nutty QoL and all dots should just behave that way

iron thorn

yes

exactly

foggy juniper
#

is there any talent changes to do in low keys most of the time im below tank 🙁

astral pine
#

theres a weekly key spec with sudden demise

iron thorn
#

that just means you're not playing correctly at all

#

like no hate, but you're doing something fundamentally wrong then

foggy juniper
#

but i dont know what im doing wrong targets die too fast

iron thorn
#

look a little further up

#

that was a 12

#

almost +3

#

you can do dmg even when pulls dont live long

foggy juniper
#

how do you do with like lock and bm hunter ?

iron thorn
#

similarly well

foggy juniper
#

i get to spread dots then they dead mostly

astral pine
#

how low are these keys exactly

rugged basalt
#

I vocally complain even if I’m wrong btw

iron thorn
#

yes lans

#

perfect

still nymph
rugged basalt
#

Yeah lowkey what do you define as a low key

foggy juniper
#

8-10s overall i am above tank

rugged basalt
#

Is your tank like 285 ilvl

foggy juniper
#

i think he was 272+

#

and i am 266

rugged basalt
#

If the ilvl is comparable I can only assume there’s something going wrong in rotation

astral pine
#

so you're saying any key below an 8 your struggling to stay above the tank?

foggy juniper
#

i mean closer to tank overall than to lock or hunter ye

astral pine
#

oh ok

rugged basalt
#

If you’re #1 in boss dmg it’s balanced out

#

Are you using your cds if you’re more than 2 min away from a boss fight

strange onyx
#

I can teach you

foggy juniper
#

i just use them so sometimes i dont have cds for boss but what is rotation like?

still nymph
#

what i noticed if enemies die too quickly is that you should value caustic higher than spreading your bleeds. only use CT until 5CP and use envenom and stay on that target to cleave off of it

rugged basalt
#

Idk what’s “correct” but I usually try to have the cds up for boss or at least close to weakness period. There are exceptions to this with some bosses, like nexus right side boss, cavern last boss

strange onyx
#

Send cds on cd

still nymph
#

yeah

rugged basalt
#

I greed

strange onyx
#

But be smart about it

still nymph
#

more uses > more boss dmg

#

but dont use them for the last 20% of the pack :D

rugged basalt
#

I burn kb usually but I estimate when dm will come back and think it out

foggy juniper
#

like on dummies i do 200k burst and fall to 180k i think

strange onyx
#

Seems low

#

Jk

#

Seems high

#

Jk

#

It seems

rugged basalt
#

Wowhead has a rotation page

#

But just add one envenom before puzzlebox

foggy juniper
#

i dont have puzzle box yet sadly

rugged basalt
#

Voidstorm renown trinket is amazing till you get better trinkets

#

Crucible

iron thorn
#

IF

#

you can be bothered to upgrade it

foggy juniper
#

i didnt have the rogue for many days so i think i have 2 upgrades on that

rugged basalt
#

You only need 3 upgrades out of all of it anyway

foggy juniper
iron thorn
#

i'd prefer on use if i had to play pvp trinket tbf

foggy juniper
#

yea i use that for pvp just dont have anything better atm but i guess i can get that crucible now

brave gyro
#

your gear is lower ilvl, but not bad at all, as Unius said, you're prob missing fundamentals. Start with going over the wowhead guide, there is a rotation section. Whispyr keeps it up to date

foggy juniper
#

how much overall should i be doing at 266? around?

iron thorn
#

100k is a good thing to strive for imo

slim pebble
#

Did I read correctly that we have maintenance again today

analog field
#

in lower dungeons it will not be easy to keep 100

#

assa is below that for sure, no time to ramp

iron thorn
#

i mean you just shouldnt be doing anything under a 10 really

#

10s are so free

analog field
#

yeah but a 10 is still very bad for assa

#

especially in a pug context

iron thorn
#

and i still outdps fotm specs in a 10 on assa

#

so?

analog field
#

yeah but it is reasonable to also not do 100k on a 10

#

with smaller pulls

#

or good players

#

Espeically without sudden demise your meters will not be very good

#

you cant even send dm kb on a mob

#

it dies mid duration

foggy juniper
#

i think i was at 86k in a pos 10 yesterday

rugged basalt
#

I’m valued for my “utility” and “boss dmg” and “presence”

foggy juniper
#

should i be playing sudden demise?

analog field
#

I mean if you want to get familiar with the ''proper'' build so you do higher keys , don't

#

but if you want to have big dmg you have to

supple monolith
#

mythic main hand over mythic gaze correct

analog field
iron thorn
#

once again, to be below tank dps there's some fundamentals going wrong

rare stone
#

mythic main hand infinitely easier to get over gaze

rugged basalt
#

Gaze lowk harder to obtain, you can farm dagger off PoS with bonus loot

analog field
#

with bonus rolls you take gaze for sure

rugged basalt
#

Changing loot spec to outlaw and farming PoS today 🤤

I dislike parts of a dg never the whole dg

#

I dislike seat outright nvm

#

That’s my one time

iron thorn
#

nah i do like seat

rare stone
#

Seat or Dawnbreaker?

iron thorn
#

seat

#

fuck that buggy mess of a dungeon

rugged basalt

I also have strange takes though. I hated Dawnbreaker and loved priory

iron thorn
#

priory was PEAK

rare stone

I also liked priory... as a tank though

clear knoll
#

A hero track gaze would beat any myth trink?

iron thorn
#

yes

#

but as always

rare stone
#

I mean any M+ trinket yes

rugged basalt
#

Is there more context behind that question

rare stone
#

prob not raid myth trinks

iron thorn
#

i mean there's only one other passive raid myth trinket no?

slim pebble
rugged basalt
#

Puzzlebox is a mainstay, so it’s really slot 2 you’re comparing. Heroic gaze would be beaten by mythic gaze, but I don’t remember the sims for plume

rare stone
#

oh my brain is fried, I was in warrior disc before and thinking im talking in the arms disc

#

yeah puzzle and gaze

Won't every assa use it

#

What else are u gonna use

slow orbit
#

i have a question.. why we use hungering victory -a versa mastery weapon- instead of crit haste or crit mastery weapon?

#

didnt expect getting answer via reaction but thanks!

lime edge
#

Pretty sure hungering victory is only there because its a myth attainable wep

#

The bis gear thing isnt taking into account random vault or new reroll

golden loom
#

the secondary stats on weapons is kinda low anyways and the way less relevant part

subtle tundra
#

but its more of an upgrade for tanks bcs of the proc, so it goes to tanks for long-term

#

you baka

#

fucking baka

#

fuck you

#

sorry

#

this is not the real me

lime edge
#

Wouldnt we have significantly better proc rate than a tank

#

Do tanks even do a lot of nature dmg

subtle tundra
#

idk if we know how the proc works

#

but its usually limited

lime edge
#

Well it says on dealing nature dmg is what I mean

#

How do they get nature dmg

subtle tundra
#

by using spells

lime edge
#

Every tank has nature spells?

subtle tundra
#

idk u tell me

lime edge
#

I thought basically none of them did

#

But idk

subtle tundra
#

i dont play tanks

its just ptsd of every proc loot going to tanks

Assassination Stats
You will always get more accurate results using Raidbots Top Gear, as stat values will flucuate depending on gear and situation.

Agility (Item level) > Crit > Haste > Mastery >>>> Vers
The ratio between secondaries ends up being roughly 40/33/26/1

i think

no i did

Survivability is good with elusiveness added in

the key to keys is to only do weeklies and do it by listing your own key garf

@sacred oyster ure right

onyx veldt

yeah ahahah

#

i still have one BR left tho

#

maybe i go flip it in pit

sacred oyster
#

you should sim swapping your boots to the set boots, they are heavier crit stacked

onyx veldt
#

ohhh alright ill do that

#

what about helm leeching is always better than avoidance?

golden loom
#

They are both defensive

#

Doesnt matter

#

Pick the one with the cooler name

onyx veldt
#

LOL

sacred oyster
#

i prefer avoidance as it could be the difference in being 1 shot or not.

golden loom
#

On dk I have speed on boots/shoulders/helm

sacred oyster
#

and in like raids it feels like itll prob reduce more damage than leeching would heal

golden loom
#

Atleast you feel speed

Leech shows up on the meters and is always a little good, but avoidance is way better if it actually affects relevant things

Avoidance and leech are fake stats

never used it but im not sure what you are struggling with, its just select anything you want to compare. i just dont see how you ended up with what you did unless you added copies of your rings w/o sockets to the ring list

frosty cedar
#

he probably jsut had all gems off when he ran the sim, his current ones already have them

sacred oyster
#

yeah but why didnt the sim run a check on current rings + trinket only

golden loom
frosty cedar

prolly cause he specifically added new rings to the top gear set I guess
