also a classic

latent kernel
#

I think that by releasing the 3.4k mounts and achievement they inadvertently created a rat vortex at the 16 key level

#

It used to be at the 12-13 level

#

Because of the 3k achievement

balmy condor
#

rat vortex is sending me

latent kernel
#

The funniest part is that I’m sure people are saying the exact same thing about me after these keys, atleast I’m self aware enough to acknowledge that

#

It’s like driving and how it’s always everyone else’s fault

#

Oh well it was all worth it in the end for the recolored armoredon

mint urchin
waxen oyster
#

as someone who does vault keys

buoyant herald
#

There’s a couple of levels now

#

10s for vault. 12/13 for 3k. 16/17 for 3.4k.

#

As people reach their capability ceiling / goal

#

I’ve been crest farming today around the 12-13 range and I cannot believe how many keys I’ve timed with 2 dps under 100k

#

Like it’s not even close we just waltz in under the timer

jolly stirrup
#

I just had my best key Performance a few days ago damage wise, a 10AA with 191k dmg. It may not be a lot, but for me it is

buoyant herald
#

thats kinda nuts for AA

#

thats a lot for anyone

jolly stirrup
#

We did have an evoker

buoyant herald
#

Even then that’s solid

#

My best is 175k in a pit with no aug but I think I could do much better if I was playing with comms

jolly stirrup
#

We were helping our Healer friend, they are gearing their shaman and we're at like 230ilvl, and our shadow priest also had low gear, so Mobs lived long enough OMEGAKEKW

buoyant herald
#

biggest roadblock to assass damage is frontloaded dps in low keys for sure

potent oracle
#

whats the best lethal/nonlethal poison

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

# balmy condor !poison

Sir is assa competing with sub on raid damage? Changed to assa to try a bit since 2 weeks i think i prefer it than sub

balmy condor
#

yeah assa is fine

bronze panther
#

I took the build from here for raid talents its fine as it is. I need to tweak anything for any fights?

balmy condor
#

paladins and dragons you play the m+ build

main bobcat
#

thank you whispyr I will do that

rapid patio
#

is there a page where i can see dungeons DPS per spec? like summary

balmy condor
#

I don't think so

#

that sounds like some really shaky stats

rapid patio
#

i want to know if i'm doing good dps or not

balmy condor
#

if you log a key there's a parse on your log for that dungeon at that key level

#

but it is

#

very janky

#

because you can't really compare it like that

#

dungeons are so insanely variable

#

like okay, you did the same dungeon in the same amount of time at the same key level

#

did you have a shaman and a warrior? no? -11% dps

#

you had the same comp, same key level, same dungeon, same amount of time?

#

did the other people do the same amount of damage too? did they die? did they fuck up their cds? did they cd the mob you used cds on?

cunning needle
#

did your tank have highlight assist on and pulled exactly one pack at a time

balmy condor
#

and then not everyone logs their keys

#

so you're like already comparing to 40 people

#

it's just a mess

rapid patio
#

oh i see, did not consider that

jolly stirrup
#

I go into keys: Did we time? Yay! Did we deplete, not yay

visual sun
#

Did we deplete with some trash talking? /popcorn

frigid cedar
#

i wanted to ask you guys how much you sim on dungeon slice?

molten flicker
#

what's holding you back?

buoyant herald
#

Like 150k or something idk

#

Are we measuring sizes

frigid cedar
#

no

#

i simmed i sim 120k without buffs

#

and im a bit confused couse it seems a bit low

buoyant herald
#

Without buffs I’d believe it. Assume you’re not like 289 ilvl

frigid cedar
#

283

buoyant herald
#

What’s the matter with that

#

Sims don’t tell you how good you or your spec are they tell you what gear to equip or what talent to take in the given situation

frigid cedar
#

yeah yeah just wondering maybe i need more mastery instead of crit for more aoe if mastery even makes the cut even

buoyant herald
#

You could sim stat weights for fun but it’ll almost surely tell you crit is still goated

#

(I know this because I did it)

#

Puzzle box especially devalues mastery

frigid cedar
#

did not thought about it that way good point

buoyant herald
#

Assassination is a known low-compared-to-other-specs simmer

#

So just use them to be the best you can be ❤️

toxic ginkgo
#

Swapping over from outlaw, is single target dmg respectful?

jolly stirrup
#

Raid? Definetly

#

M+? Nah

buoyant herald
#

Goes well if you can get a second round of CDs in execute

analog field
#

after the top 3-4 specs

#

especially in higher keys with 2-3 set of CDs and in execute

strange onyx
#

hello i am assa

buoyant herald
#

Impressive work from the BM

keen raven
#

m+ asa has some of the highest aoe along with some the highest prio dmg in the game

spice surge
#

The "issue" is that most other meta classes (like unholy) already have very high prio, so in a lot of cases you end up with the big dude dead and a whole lot of smallies that you need to kill

#

So the prio isnt as good as it should be

royal lantern
#

like, idk why but it just does negative dmg on packs unless it can spamm black arrows

royal lantern
#

i did +19 stuff with a unholy+demo, and important prio mobs still died before my DM did its full dmg lol

spice surge
royal lantern
#

inc:

keen raven
#

im talkin 21-22s

spice surge
#

Yes

royal lantern
#

"+19 is not high"

#

I KNEW IT

#

lol

keen raven
#

u can also adjust in keys and pick a diff prio target if u know ur group has a lot of prio already

spice surge
#

Not all packs have 2 big targets

spice surge
#

Like i pulled a log from a +21 magisters terrace first pull. The pull is 46s seconds long, and the big sentry is dead after 37 seconds

#

Its obviously not useless, but its not speeding up the key as much as it has in the past

World of Warcraft Forums

Hi! I’m Prophet and I’m a 4 time 0.1% M+ title holder (retired now though) and CE raider. I’m also a die hard rogue and very active in the sub rogue channel of the rogue discord. I’m not going to create a long wishlist here because I believe 80% of the issues rogues are facing currently can be solved with 1 simple thing- a real raid buf...

#

hey guys hit this with a like if you can

subtle tundra
#

grow up

humble verge
#

no i dont want us to be relevant

#

then i actually HAVE to compete to play rogue

burnt juniper
#

they have enough already

humble verge
#

nah they need raid buff too

balmy condor
#

I mean right off the bat Atrophic does not work on many instances of damage (mainly environmental) which drastically reduces its effectivenessis just wrong

#

it works on legit everything except like 3 mechanics in the entire season

royal lantern
# burnt juniper they have enough already

did you ever read what dks said in the last 5 years? clearly they dont because they dont have a flat number buff (ignore that basically all important fights have a 1-2 DK hard requirment)

balmy condor
#

and 2 out of those 3 mechanics are kinda irrelevant

burnt juniper
royal lantern
#

but its overblown most of the time

burnt juniper
#

but it still doesn't answer the question why is rogue being sat for almost the entire race then

royal lantern
#

like everything is in WoW tbh

balmy condor
#

xalatath throws little dot debuffs on you on dragons, the dodge hammers on paladin, and the meh raidwide tick damage on lura

#

are the only three mechanics

#

everything else is attributed

royal lantern
royal lantern
#

its not about "atrophic doesnt work"

burnt juniper
#

it's clearly not enough

subtle tundra
#

noooooooooo rogue is sometimes not good on the literal world first kill of the boss

#

please blizzard i beg

balmy condor
#

I mean it's also a shit melee tier, how many rogues do you think they're taking if there's only like 3 melee dps on a kill

spice surge
subtle tundra
#

lets close the discord

spice surge
#

But thats a different issue

#

That it only lasts 10 seconds

royal lantern
burnt juniper
#

i think this is getting in the weeds

#

the big argument is nobody truly cares about atrophic

#

especially in keys

royal lantern
#

i mean yeha

#

atrophic is spreadsheet utility

burnt juniper
#

dmg raid buff=better

subtle tundra
#

well in keys then paladin has no raidbuff either

#

by the same logic

burnt juniper
#

kinda yes

storm forum
#

I also think numbing is better in keys

burnt juniper
#

but also pally brings a shitton of good utility

storm forum
#

Paladin's raid buff is actually bop/sac/freedom

balmy condor
#

I can get behind that, I just don't really think "wahhh no rogue in RWF and top like 300 m+" is really a compelling argument that basically anyone at blizzard or the greater community at large will give a shit about

storm forum
#

Rogue raid buff is actually tricks

humble verge
storm forum
#

How many milligrams?

burnt juniper
#

i just thought it was very telling how useless rogue has become from this last race

royal lantern
#

(im forced to do all mechanics)

humble verge
burnt juniper
#

because rogue not being in the race has a big effect on the rest of the game

humble verge
balmy condor
burnt juniper
#

everyone pays attention to it

royal lantern
spice surge
royal lantern
#

and immunity soaks

humble verge
royal lantern
humble verge
#

everyone does orb soaks

humble verge
#

and like pala and rogue does immunity

balmy condor
#

like the argument of "no rogue in race this tier" is more just "dk exists"

storm forum
spice surge
#

Pretty strong evidence that they never want a class to be sat on rwf

balmy condor
#

guess they're buffing atrophic to 5% then

#

cause that was the point of atrophic

spice surge
#

They might ye

storm forum
#

Reverse mark of the wild

balmy condor
#

but like raid buffs are kind of unfixable idk

storm forum
#

1.6% damage amp

grim jay
#

crit buff!

burnt juniper
#

maybe if they buffed atrophic and then made it an aura instead

balmy condor
#

when was the last time they played dps warrior

jolly stirrup
balmy condor
#

instead of tank warrior

#

dps warrior is literal piss

#

you just run the buff on the tank

#

and call it a day

burnt juniper
#

but at least warrior is in

#

rogue was not

balmy condor
#

okay but is that the solution

#

"warrior was in, just on tank"

#

feels like it's just the same problem but you're escaping to a different role

burnt juniper
#

it's not great, but they were still represented in some way

balmy condor
#

like yeah, shaman was in as well

#

ele sham

jolly stirrup
#

When Rogue Tank/Heal

royal lantern
humble verge
spice surge
balmy condor
spice surge
humble verge
#

dps warrior

royal lantern
humble verge
balmy condor
#

like even havoc is just giga shafted

#

havoc was already kinda shafted cause you ran veng for the debuff

#

and now you just get to play another ranged dps?

#

you get fucked twice

golden loom
#

havoc is better on lura now garf

balmy condor
#

that's so sick

humble verge
#

we still somehow have a feral dudu

balmy condor
#

enhance gets fucked on resto and ele

royal lantern
#

world of rangedcraft

#

having a ranged option is the death of melee options

balmy condor
#

yeh pretty much

humble verge
#

maybe its time to go ranged next tier

storm forum
#

When are we getting our gun spec?

grim jay
#

people still want a gunslinger ranged rogue

humble verge
#

outlaw tank when

grim jay
#

worst idea ever

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

I think if rogue ranged spec existed, like outlaw gunslinger or something, I would either one trick it or quit the game

#

nothing in between

humble verge
#

gunslinger rogue

#

so like

#

marksman with extra steps?

balmy condor
#

have you ever played samira in league

storm forum
#

I would be fighting my raid lead to let me keep playing assa

royal lantern
#

BRO WE NEED NECROMANCER SPEC

humble verge
royal lantern
#

ITS JUST UNHOLY DK

#

OR DEMO LOCK

#

BUT IT WOULD BE SO UNIQUE

balmy condor
#

mid-range evoker/devourer style shit

#

but samira

golden loom
#

samira my goat

royal lantern
#

dogshit?

storm forum
#

I hate samira

royal lantern
storm forum
#

But I liked red mage in ff14

balmy condor
storm forum
#

So maybe I would like it

royal lantern
#

like you are just a ranged

#

do ranged stuff

storm forum
royal lantern
#

and then do a short melee combo for the burst

grim jay
#

so like

#

devourer?

royal lantern
#

not numbers

balmy condor
#

devourer and aug are both pretty fun idk

royal lantern
#

its not hard to make specs overtuned as fuck and then act suprised when they have "sucess"

golden loom
#

yeah I would love to play dev but Ir olled a myth puzzlebox and a myth axe in 2 first weeks

royal lantern
#

like, redmage is really just

#

a 100% normal turret caster

grim jay
royal lantern
#

and then does a melee dash, 2 melee hits and backflips out every 90(?) seconds

#

idk the timer anymore

balmy condor
royal lantern
#

like, the "melee" part is just a fancy animation

iron thorn
balmy condor
#

yeah that is kinda the only complaint I have

iron thorn
#

like in the 12s i did the other dps were jut too fast at melting the packs

balmy condor
#

leveling it? holy hell feels so ass

#

getting haste? feels okay

#

maybe I'm just a masochist that plays ramp specs that feel like shit in low end content

royal lantern
#

nah, devourer is extra shit

balmy condor
#

there's introspection to be had here

royal lantern
#

not even spriest in legion was as bad

iron thorn
#

wait wait

#

are you hating on

royal lantern
#

for leveling

iron thorn
#

s2m shadow

royal lantern
#

i mean how it felt during leveling

grim jay
royal lantern
#

devourer is just 200% oof in that regard

iron thorn
#

thats why you level as havoc or vengeance

#

and also gear as those specs

#

and then when you have the gear

#

you respec devourer

#

and start living the fotm spec life

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

yeah but I'm starting to hate sudden demise because it's such a magnet for idiots, degnerates, and general sketchy hooligans

frosty cedar
#

not the hooligans

frosty cedar
#

genuine bri'ish lads

balmy condor
#

sudden demise is like sticking a piece of sushi into a piranha infested lake

#

they might not be snapping at it instantly

#

but they're comin

#

and they will bite your hand off

#

the hand being good math

#

this analogy isn't working

royal lantern
#

imagine if SD was a burger

balmy condor
#

I tried the food angle but I lost it

#

I like went food

#

and then it morphed into just fish

#

not my best work

frosty cedar
#

sd is like working out and only eating 200 greasy burgers

it feels good and u get bigger

but its not just good big

iron thorn
#

yo backshot

frosty cedar
#

helloing

iron thorn
#

how did you like playing paladins?

frosty cedar
#

like

#

is a strong word

iron thorn
#

i'm not too sure if i wanna play that boss or not

#

but i'm kinda getting bored not playing

golden loom
#

boss is fun NO CAP

frosty cedar
#

I wanted to play because I prefer not to be benched on any progress

#

but like its so cringe

iron thorn
#

i COULD technically play my aug on that

frosty cedar
#

your giga reliant on your tanks for dmg and whether the pala dies 1 min before he should

iron thorn
#

but idk if my raid lead wants my aug, because he hasn't yet said anything to the idea

frosty cedar
#

its silly billy gaming

iron thorn
#

perfect

#

so b for benching myself again

golden loom
#

idk I think I've just gaslit myself into liking paladins

#

cause I just hated soul hunters so much garf

frosty cedar
#

I mean its very playable its just annoying and your dps can vary widely from pull to pull

iron thorn
#

yeah that sounds like something i would not enjoy lol

golden loom
frosty cedar
#

unlucky buddy

#

what is your uhdk doing

golden loom
#

well one died at 5min

iron thorn
#

bro 6 healing

#

i fucking hate when that happens

golden loom
#

do you like how many melee dps we have garf

frosty cedar
#

holy moly the 6 heal

golden loom
iron thorn
#

game's good

#

idek if we have 6 healers in guild

golden loom
#

we have 2 offspec healers

iron thorn
#

i think we did, but one left the guild recently

golden loom
#

evoker and shadowpriest on healing duty garf

iron thorn
#

yeah might happen to our shadow too

golden loom
#

theres no dps check on that boss tho and 6 healing made it pretty piss

hard mason
#

We ran 3 melee on paladins. And for some reason I had to be one of em. 3% dmage reduction being important or something bah.

#

:P

iron thorn
#

ah no, we had 7 healers and one left

#

so we're saved

#

ez

frosty cedar
#

bro has half of the healers

golden loom
#

im so hyped for wednesday..

#

will finally get to spend all my crests on alts

iron thorn
#

imagine getting myth achievement done

celest ruin
#

paladins with only one hunter Cring

iron thorn
#

mm is shit now

#

deal with it or sth

frosty cedar
#

we also did it with 1 hunter omegalul

lime lantern
#

kind of sad to see outlaws chosen 4 out of 5 times for phys comp in 19+ and when u get chosen, u get asked why dont u play outlaw

#

as if assa isnt viable anymore in ppl's eyes

iron thorn
#

all zac's fault

lime lantern
#

i can imagine situation is even worse in 20-21

iron thorn
#

imagine pugging keys that high

#

are keys that range still like "go in, pull big first pull, wipe, gg go next"

lime lantern
#

idk but 19s are pretty "easy" or tolerable atleast with the current ilvl ppl have

balmy condor
#

Pugging 20’s, eating a handful of wet nails, or dropping a thick wooden cutting board directly onto your pinky toe

#

The three prime evils of the universe

iron thorn
#

tell me the difference between these two pictures type situation

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

I’m talking like the zoo is keeping the monkeys in a separate enclosure cause they’re too ugly for public viewing

#

It’s a charity case cause the breed is dying and like they need them to survive

#

But they bash their heads into tree trunks

iron thorn
#

whispyr on fire today

balmy condor
#

So now it’s like a padded room

frosty cedar
#

actual herculean labour

balmy condor
#

The Diablo fight he just splits himself into tank who doesn’t understand that he needs to press defensives to survive a group of enemies + healer with zero awareness of any mechanics + boomkin that complains he can’t kick anything + bm hunter clicking his abilities and keyboard turning because “that’s how everyone did it in wrath”

#

Just little satanic vessels

#

Like a fucking horcrux

#

And you must complete the key to break them

#

Okay you know what, scratch that

grim jay
balmy condor
#

It’s just a follower dungeon

#

But like a +25

#

I’m reinventing the wheel

#

Just make a +25 follower dungeon

#

That might actually be a higher quality group than the scum of the earth in LFG

iron thorn
#

casuals would love follower m+ so they can get all the nice mounts they cannot get with pug groups because "my spec doesn't get invited to keys"

#

meanwhile some prot paladin got 3k with the glowy route and obr

balmy condor
#

Have you seen the AI on the followers though

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

You’re not timing fucking anything

iron thorn
#

was enough

balmy condor
#

If you removed 3/4ths of the dungeon I think the tank npc would be unable to time the key

#

Like academy just tree boss straight to end boss

#

Do you think followers can do it in under 30 min

iron thorn
balmy condor
#

Pulling tree boss adds in groups of 3

iron thorn
#

I imagine the AI tank would just pull like at most one of the big flower at a time

balmy condor
#

Just the lashers then the roaming pack of stingers

#

Then the next lashers

#

Big lasher as a mini boss on its own

iron thorn
#

hahahhahaha

balmy condor
#

What a banger

iron thorn
#

we need to do this

#

5 man dungeon cosplaying the follower ai

#

pulling legit pack by pack

balmy condor
#

Forget decor duels

#

This could be content

#

You get an mdi style head to head

#

Follower dungeon vs premade team

#

And the viewers vote on which team is the npc

#

They don’t know which is which

iron thorn
#

HOLY

#

we need to pitch this

grim jay
#

I want whispyr to be moderating that shit

#

while alternating between german and english

balmy condor
#

Could you imagine the practice that would need to happen

#

Like “guys we killed that pack too fast, you need to play worse”

iron thorn
#

hahaa

#

wait what comp was follower dungeons again

balmy condor
#

“If I push buttons slower they can tell because my character animations just don’t exist, should I unequip a ring or something

iron thorn
#

prot warr, rsham, fire mage, bm hunter + x

balmy condor
#

It’s like a deeply psychological meta game

#

Each team has an analyst that just runs follower dungeons all day to collect data on routes and pack timing that they need to copy

#

This could be insane

#

It’s like all the mental game and practice and knowledge of baseball

#

Mixed with all the boring unwatchable and profoundly uninteresting gameplay of baseball

iron thorn
#

whats the synergies in this comp

#

skyfury + vers + dev aura + hunters mark

balmy condor
#

Captain Garrick really playing prot pala in a phys comp

#

Read the fucking room man

grim jay
#

like its in their dna

#

as it is with football

iron thorn
#

i like watching the match highlights

#

throwing a ball very fast into hitting it very far and running like a madman

#

thats fun content

shuja is playing ele

grim jay
balmy condor
#

It is insanely American

#

But if you’re not a baseball player

#

Baseball genuinely sucks

#

90% of the game nothing is happening

iron thorn
#

are you shitting me

#

this is the first pull in windspire

#

into solo magus

balmy condor
#

It’s like soccer if everyone was standing still for most of the game

#

The keeper clears the ball and everyone runs for about 15 seconds

#

And then they just stand there for the next 30 minutes and kick the ball back and forth

#

That’s basically baseball

drifting cloud
#

and the best part they play like 200 games a season!

balmy condor
#

Yeah

grim jay
balmy condor
#

And 10 people watching the two people run

#

And then like 3 people catch and throw a ball

#

And you go back to standing still for 30 min

ember mural
#

baseball is like basketball, start watching with playoffs

balmy condor
#

Like there’s a real chance if your playing right outfield

#

You just don’t do anything all game

#

You watch foul balls whizz past you

#

And you watch the center catch some pop outs

#

And then you swing a bat a couple times, don’t hit

#

And that’s your game

hazy sundial
#

The fact that they wear leather belt while playing baseball tell you everything you need to know how athletic and serious sport baseball is

ember mural
#

and get paid 6 figures per game garf_sit

balmy condor
#

Fun fact, I was gonna be a pitcher in high school, did tryouts and made the team as a pitcher

#

But they changed the practice days and it overlapped with marching band

#

So I quit baseball

balmy condor

Bro the amount of baseball analogies and examples I use when I’m coaching bowling

drifting cloud
#

first the all german high school and now this

balmy condor
#

You would be surprised

ember mural
#

wait all german hs wtf

drifting cloud
#

or whatever the US equivalent is, our school systems are too different

balmy condor
#

Like I’m convinced if you’re a softball player

#

You can pick up bowling in like a week

balmy condor
#

Also the only brown kid I knew up through 8th grade was Filipino/german and the highschool I went to is legit like 85% Latino so that was a bit of a culture shock

#

Freshman year was crazy

#

I heard more Spanish walking between my classes than I had heard my entire life prior

drifting cloud
#

yeah cant relate im from the Balkans

#

all we got is tracksuits and warcrimes

runic hinge
#

lemme see the fit

drifting cloud
#

Spanish isnt even offered as a course in most high schools

balmy condor

Also my private schooling before highschool, 13 kids in my class, I grew up with them

#

First class I go to in highschool

Never saw them outside of that class ever again

do you guys have a must have set of macros for assa?

#

i have an automatic interrupt, mouseover distract and thats it

storm forum
#

Mouse over shadowstep, focus kick, pot/trinket+DM

young flicker
#

Automatic interrupt?

storm forum
#

I'm thinking about bringing back the pvp focus kidney macro

blazing tulip
#

I woke up yesterday smh

storm forum
#

But I keep forgetting to

fringe socket
#

Automatic eh?

prisma monolithBOT
#

Assassination uses no other macros aside from standard Deathmark+Potion+Racial

#showtooltip Deathmark
/cast Deathmark
/use Light's Potential
```You **cannot** macro puzzle box or kingsbane to deathmark, as they are both on the GCD

What’s that one look like?

north vortex

/cast [@focus,exists,nodead,harm] Kick 
/stopmacro [@focus,exists,nodead,harm] 
/focus target
/cleartarget 
/targetenemy 
/cast Kick 
/target focus 
/clearfocus
/startattack```
north vortex
#

don't ask me how or why it works, it just does and it works for me

sharp viper
frosty cedar
#

dark tech I guess

north vortex
#

like a legacy codebase, it works but dont touch it

#

try it out you wont be disappointed

sharp viper
#

The focus stuff could be replaced by targetlasttarget

north vortex
#

no clue, I am a copy paste goblin

true tusk
#

for high keys

#

i think it's a meme

#

because this macro works, yeah, but its random kick

north vortex
#

yea pretty much
if there are multiple casters near you, its a gamble who you will hit

quasi osprey
#

its not fully random i think, it operates on tab logic so it will kick the leftmost cast first if there are several

true tusk
#

you can fix this taking macro for apply focus

#

then kick always the focus

north vortex
#

for low keys its enough but I can imagine pushing high keys you would want a mouseover

true tusk
#

i linked this on my guildmates because they play at level to do 3-4 kicks in a run, so its better this macro than 3/4 kicks

#

for low keys works really well

north vortex
#

most of the time I do 10s-12s for vault and i cba to tryhard kicks in those levels tbh

true tusk
#

12 or less= low keys, so its enough

#

anyway, like i said you can fix it doing macro for apply focus, you bind this macro then put it on add you want always kick

#

works a little bit better

#

isnt like mouseover but near

Hey gonna be progressing dragons on Mythic for the first time today. Wanted to ask what should I be pressing on adds CR or FoK? i checked some logs and saw people using CT but figured Id ask the real pros

night cipher
#

same rules as M+ I use. one CT to spread, maybe 2. then fok envenom into boss

cloud reef
#

!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
frosty cedar
#

also check your build, because the top logs will be using a pad build with sudden demise; if you are progressing, you should use a different build

young flicker
#

If use this macro and switch out “exists” with “harm” then will it kick my target if my focus is out of range?

#

I’d prefer to do a mod macro so I can kick the target or focus depending on whose casting, but idk how to do those

solar eagle
#

Can we have 1 seaosn where rogue is actually wanted in groups

young flicker

Rogue is fine rn

It's not about tha,t it's about being benched over dks and co

every phys comp wants a rogue, u are just playing wrong spec

Are you pugging 20s?

especially in dungeons!

royal lantern

"phys comp" is the biggest cope in the game anyway

waxen oyster
#

yeah

#

"let me make a comp to buff myself"

royal lantern
#

mfs acting as if the buffs there make a giga difference

#

as if you would play it if the classes would be dogshit

royal lantern
#

like, if warrior had a REALLY bad tier, would people still cope on their "phys comp" kekdog

waxen oyster
#

idk dps warriors complain almost as much

#

about lfg

#

instead of just making friends

shy axle
#

how do you play the tentacles on vice king in seat on higher key levels? Not sure whats the best approach

solar wyvern
#

Pray you have a tentacle killer in your comp

#

Assa bad at tentacles

quiet star
#

Currently it works

#

So where is cope really

royal lantern
#

like, its just "warrior + Guys that benefit from Shout"

quiet star
royal lantern
#

tf is "magic meta" even supposed to mean

quiet star
#

And it looks much better comp than literally broken specs combined together

royal lantern
#

like hello, 90% of the specs in this game are "magic" specs in their dmg type

quiet star
royal lantern
#

ah yes, they are played because they are "magic" specs

#

and not because they are the strongest dps options in the game right now

quiet star
royal lantern
#

mate, do you know how many specs in this game are physical?

quiet star
#

Just coincidence

#

Fully physical? Or what do you mean?

fringe socket
royal lantern
#

i think its.....6?

#

idk if boomstick is physical

#

@warm vortex is boomstick physical dmg

quiet star
#

Not sure what % is it after rework

lime lantern
# fringe socket Bruh no they dont

in 19s i see rogues chosen in phys comps A LOT and usually in general it is outlaw altho assa gets invite quite often as most of my invites come from phys comp groups

quiet star
#

Feral full phys, outlaw full phys, arms also

warm vortex
#

I thought it was fire

#

For a while

#

but it's phyisical

quiet star
warm vortex
warm vortex
#

I saiw "i thought" it was
same logic as bomb

warm vortex
#

lunar storm is magic

#

but PL is better overall atm

#

for everything

quiet star
#

Ye, maybe, played pl mostly

quiet star
warm vortex
#

Nah it deffo is
PL is just much better damage and it's only gotten buffed while Sent is left behind
good thing cause they still (to my knowlege) haven't fixed the sent mark application for raptor swipe

quiet star

Like assa

warm vortex

anyway

idk but i have a frost dk in my raid doing insane numbas

rigid cedar
#

Just looking back through, is there a reason that we take Revelry over Tempted Fate? 30% chance to absorb 10% of any damage taken seems way better, even if unreliable, than 700 hp per coin flipped.. I'm at 416k unbuffed, 700 seems kinda like a drop in the very very very large bucket

thorn thorn
sonic zinc
#

woops thats only 19s

#

19s+

#

pretty much the same thing

#

Thats funny

frosty cedar

I really havent seen a devoker all expac tbh

royal lantern

ret is down

golden loom
#

havoc so underrated..

royal lantern
frosty cedar
#

surely though like aug is not for every dps player

#

isnt it basically cuck chair simulator ?

thorn thorn
#

ye

frosty cedar
#

surely there must be dragon players that dont want to play aug

thorn thorn
#

Also as it turns out its not as easy as we say it is otherwise I wouldnt be getting logs of augs doing tank damage in 18+

#

(The difficulty is not being afk for half the key idk why people fuck it up so bad)

thorn thorn
#

Very hard spec

frosty cedar
#

... 25%....?

#

actually im not sure if thats high or normal lol

thorn thorn
#

well

#

most people will be around 5% so

royal lantern
#

but a good chunk of FotM apes that go aug when aug is SSS+ Tier once again

frosty cedar
#

man nothing worse than 99% of fotm rollers

thorn thorn
#

fotm rerollers dont deserve basic human rights

frosty cedar
#

always always worse than your generic player

thorn thorn
#

Almost all of them are just afk

#

And are like omg I cast exactly what the streamer i watched did and I did less whats happening

#

Like no obviously you didnt, you went afk for 20 seconds after the opener

latent kernel
#

They should just make aug a pure dps spec, the amplification shit is just a nightmare for anyone doing any sort of analytics

thorn thorn
#

Not really

royal lantern
#

they should just delete aug

#

and the game will improve

thorn thorn
#

Its already pure dps nowadays

latent kernel
#

I’m just saying for most dps specs you can tell right off the meter if someone knows what they’re doing or not, as soon as you have an aug it gets convoluted and you don’t really know until you check logs

#

Because the meters are so bricked

thorn thorn
#

Thats also not true

#

With any spec the lower their damage the worse they are doing

#

Its not a mystery

latent kernel
#

Sure but where’s the parameters you’re using for aug

thorn thorn
#

If they are doing less than the healer chances are good they are shit

latent kernel
#

Like what’s your high value low value

thorn thorn
#

80k+ personal dam

#

Very easy to achieve in keys

#

And if its less they are either undergeared or AFK

latent kernel
#

So say they do 80k personal damage but fuck all in terms of amplifying you still wouldn’t know until you check logs

thorn thorn
#

But if they did 80k personal they wouldnt do fuck all in terms of amplifying

#

Thats not how the spec works

#

And if you actually knew anything about the spec you would know thats not how it works

mossy blade
#

youre checking logs after anyway

thorn thorn
#

The "amplifying" happens entirely naturally from them just playing the game

#

They dont do anything special for it

#

Objectively, if their personal damage is bad, their buff damage will also be bad

#

Thats just how it works

#

The "mystery" in how they perform is just DF brainrot

#

Doesnt work that way anymore

#

Its very cut and dry

#

If they are afk, their personal damage will be bad

#

And as a result so will their "amplified" damage

jaunty stone
royal lantern
#

i just hate aug

#

its simple

thorn thorn
#

Valid

#

Just hating it is 10x more valid than just making shit up that isnt true

#

I have logs I can pull to backup this data

#

As can any other person that knows the spec

#

People doing low personal damage will have low buff damage too

#

And people like kess are doing more of both

#

We have had augs do terrible in 19s and 20s

#

And the review is the same every time

mossy blade
#

hating a spec for its design is equally braindead tbf

royal lantern
#

nah

#

fuck aug

mossy blade
#

its just completely unreasonable behaviour

#

not keeping up with how its design changed over the years, esp if you dont play with it, is natural

royal lantern
jaunty stone
#

dont hate the spec hate the players

thorn thorn
#

also true

#

Unless its mage

jaunty stone
#

aug players are terrorists

thorn thorn
#

Then hate both

royal lantern
#

fuck DK players since that expansion

thorn thorn
royal lantern
#

whiny bitches

jaunty stone
#

im in favor of giving aug functional meters just because it would plummed every player's view of the spec

royal lantern
jaunty stone
#

nah

#

in a more recent interview

#

they said they'd look into it

#

but it still has technical limitations from the loghooks being bugged

royal lantern
#

i mean "we look into it" is just basic corpo speech

#

they said that during its release in DF aswell

jaunty stone
#

nah during df release they explicitly said it was a part of the spec's design

#

to be off meters

#

but a lot has changed since then

royal lantern
#

oh and as another random thing

#

we just noticed after 2 progs hours

#

that 5 of our Raiders lost the weekly raidbuff

#

like, just gone

thorn thorn
mossy blade
#

link log pls

jaunty stone
#

lmao

mossy blade
#

(log is for bug report so please do send)

royal lantern
#

can send after raid

#

they could fix it by logging into an alt and accepting the buff "quest" with that one

#

is the difference between assa and outlaw in high keys really that big? Heard twice today that its 10%+ difference.Thought (especially after the nerfs to cloud) that they are quite interchangeable dmg wise.

#

but idk, did not follow the discussion the last 2 weeks

Either of the 3 specs are fine

#

Theyre about the same

for kingsbane

you see my profile pic?

man why have they got to put a council boss in every time

thorn thorn
#

I have been summoned

frosty cedar

lets retire council bosses

severe meadow

Council can be fun

#

Paladins not fun

frosty cedar
#

what was a fun council boss

severe meadow
#

Listen.. I said can be

frosty cedar
iron thorn
#

heard council of blood was liked

severe meadow
#

Also more fun if you just don't play fucking melee

thorn thorn
frosty cedar
#

council of blood is a distant memory for me from ye olden days

#

all I remember was that god awful invulnerability shield

#

on the guy youd open on

#

like 10 seconds in

#

or something diabolical

severe meadow
#

Council of blood was pretty fun

#

but that was because of the dance

#

and watching people fuck it up

iron thorn
#

sashay right

thorn thorn
#

aberrus didnt exactly have a traditional council boss

iron thorn
#

shimmy left

frosty cedar
#

boogie down

thorn thorn

But then we got council of dreams

#

And that was a warcrime

frosty cedar
#

honestly the fact that there was a duck role

#

instantly failed boss

thorn thorn
#

correct

#

it fails for other reasons but duck role took the cake

#

Easily in the top 3 least enjoyable encounters they have ever made

severe meadow
#

xd

frosty cedar
#

cant be as bad as playing ranged vs silken coiurt

thorn thorn
#

I like paladins tbh

#

But also im biased

severe meadow
#

have you done it on mythic

thorn thorn
#

I aug on paladins so BlankStare

iron thorn
#

yeah rox plays a fun spec on that boss

severe meadow
thorn thorn
severe meadow
#

it was cursed because after we killed Paladins

#

all of our ranged players was like

#

"fun boss"

#

and all of the melee was so fucking happy to be off it

I liked DHs more than Paladins tbh

yeah I played ranged for DHs and it was giga chill

been going well so far

8 - 30 ratio HOLY

iron thorn
#

nah 8-22

severe meadow
#

oh yeah

#

lemme know when you're queing so I can get on

iron thorn
#

but yeah, going straight into pvp on a spec you've never touched

#

always a good idea

#

but arms is fun

severe meadow
#

uhh I think arms is doing okay rn

#

I think they buffed it

iron thorn
#

i'm kinda bad at pvp in general tho

severe meadow
#

Yeah I also don't PvP much at all

iron thorn
#

I did back in Cata but that was 35 years ago

what in the hell is wrong with this log? me and hunter just parse below 0 in a key? xd

iron thorn
#

sometimes happens when the thing is not processed or locked in yet

sharp fable
#

why is it that assasination sims so much lower in the dungeon slice sim comapred to outlaw / sub

mossy blade
#

its not below 0, its - (absence), meaning a cached value couldnt get retrieved in time

check the rankings tab instead

the key didnt go that bad i guess

so what is that new cool thing i've heard about now? that exboss addon?

its the latest ai slop on the block

#

i dont fuck with that chinese shit

despite almost all of the functionality being available in other addons some content creators are shilling it

  • because they hate fps

  • because exwind is well connected

Friend of mine might be able to get me into mythic raiding for the first time for chim and possibly 1-3 bosses from the raid but they want strictly assa, I main sub, wowhead good enough to read what’s up? I know I need to swap to some crit and use puzzle

balmy condor

Idk that wowhead writer is a known foot guy

His chim parse sucks too

I wish I could cope about that but assa isn't even like firmly better boss damage

like sub does more boss damage on chim for sure

#

but the sub players are trying to powder spam to parse

Isn’t the assa boss damage thing partly bc you just don’t leave boss?

balmy condor
#

depends on the boss

on chim, definitely

it was pretty bad on raszageth early on

balmy condor

definition

drifting cloud
#

you did less dmg in intermission than tank

balmy condor
#

yeah there has been insanely few times where I've been physically pushed off of assa

balmy condor
#

rasz was one of them

thorn thorn
#

understandable

balmy condor
#

but by the time the majority of the community got there

#

it was kinda whatever

drifting cloud
#

nah was fine on smold imo

lone pasture
#

probably would've been bullied if u played assas on zekul

drifting cloud
#

boss was mostly a live check, but yeah sub did turbo crank that boss

#

but assa still did same dmg as most of your raid

that's how old bfa is
