#

yeah, hunter can outrange it if they use a mastery gearset

austere tendon
#

yeah

marble hemlock
#

so he never gets targeted in the first place

#

but if youre targeted, it appears you can no longer outrange it mid-cast

austere tendon
#

our boomkin couldn't blink it last week.

#

yeah for sure

marble hemlock
#

im just glad i get to play assa in 2 out of 3 dungeons

shrewd oriole
#

Yeah it’s shit

marble hemlock
#

fucking despise sub

shrewd oriole
#

Can’t believe they’ve changed iy

marble hemlock
#

no idea what mm goes for these days

#

or how much mastery would be required to get 50+y range

shrewd oriole
#

Yepv

#

I need to change a ring

#

And my bracers

#

To get the 50+

marble hemlock
#

so wait

#

if blake might not be able to play mdi

#

who did they qualify with?

shrewd oriole
#

Dunno

#

I was away most of these two weeks

#

My grandmother died

marble hemlock
#

its a shame dorull cant play

shrewd oriole
#

So I haven’t really been talking to them

marble hemlock
#

probably the best m+ boomy right now

shrewd oriole
#

Yeah :/

#

Shame about miracle as well

#

He’s really good as well

marble hemlock
#

hes shit

#

@full nimbus

shrewd oriole
#

True

marble hemlock
#

hmm they did the qual with blake, according to herudra

shrewd oriole
#

Ah

#

He’s playing then I guess

#

My info was two weeks old

marble hemlock
#

good for them

shrewd oriole
#

Yeah I’m glad

#

Blake is great

#

Super cool guy

marble hemlock
#

definitely

shrewd oriole
#

Guy is humble for how good he is

#

Yeah he does

#

Guess he’s 100%

marble hemlock
#

yes

shrewd oriole
#

He had to take out a kidney stone so he was unsure

#

Guy came on bnet high on morphine

#

That shit was funny

#

@marble hemlock been a while since I played sin but

#

I assume you play 7pk 7 malch

#

What trinkets do you rotate between

marble hemlock
#

yeah, 7pk 7malch

#

golga for the stats basically

#

singletarget i switch between ssf or eoc

#

and trash ssf or contract

shrewd oriole
#

Fair

marble hemlock
#

got a 955 contract, so thats nice

shrewd oriole
#

How’s the damage without 7pks

#

It is a massive difference?

marble hemlock
#

pk is about 13% of the overall damage

#

so w/o pk youre gonna lose ~40% of that

#

so id say its about a 5-6% dps loss if you dont run triple pk

shrewd oriole
#

Fair, that’s quite a bit

marble hemlock
#

yeah, definitely

#

especially since you dont lose all that much singletarget by not having triple bb or mass

shrewd oriole
#

I would def like to push some keys as assa bht dropping my 975+ B.B. malch relics would be tough

#

Ye

#

Kul bear form

marble hemlock
#

yeah, looks great

shrewd oriole
#

Idd

austere tendon
#

Human druids??

shrewd oriole
#

@marble hemlock do you fok on 3 at 7 pks?

strange python
#

anyone have that perfect poison opener warcraftlog timeline thing lmao

marble hemlock
#

yeah

#

3+ i fok on singletarget, unless id overcap energy

shrewd oriole
#

Fair

marble hemlock
#

that was an old sim i did

#

between triple pk vs triple mass

#

was less than i expected it to be

#

and im not gonna drop triple pk for ~50k dps singletarget

#

but its certainly hard to switch if you already got great singletarget relics lined up

shrewd oriole
#

Tisumi

#

New guild app

#

Guy started raiding last tier

marble hemlock
#

yeah, i switched to pk when it was still 4% per trait and it was a singletarget increase

#

and never switched back

shrewd oriole
#

Got kicked from his current guild which is wr 1800

#

Applied to us

#

LUL

marble hemlock
#

nice

#

take him

shrewd oriole
#

“I like to see myself as an investment”

marble hemlock
#

sounds like a good dude

#

but yeah, MDI is gonna be shit anyway

#

ye

#

wl from my server

#

no shakib, no miracle

#

bad MDI 😦

#

yeah

#

i mean i talked to the admins too, since our original healer is from a barred country herself

#

but to no avail

shrewd oriole
#

So dumb

marble hemlock
#

the shakib situation is even more fucked up, because the law that was the basis for exempting these countries/states/cities from participating isnt even in place anymore

#

lul

shrewd oriole
#

LUL

#

disposition?

#

World 50 day raiders btw

marble hemlock
#

what was it

#

"a guild of this caliber"

shrewd oriole
#

Xeon?

#

World 250 raiding 4 dAys

marble hemlock
#

and most of these still raid more during first 1-2weeks anyway

#

i love having to compete for applicants with "2-day-raiding guilds" that raid like 5times a weeks for the first 2 weeks of progression and do splitruns and shit

shrewd oriole
#

Imagine being this bad

vapid moth
#

the pre xpac drop is hitting pretty hard

#

no one pugging raids and the M+ que lists are half the size they were a month ago

marble hemlock
#

ded game

vapid moth
#

nah. dormant

#

people will come back

shrewd oriole
#

Those are my timezone as well

#

So those guys were raiding as soon as servers opened

marble hemlock
#

i mean, the game has been in retention mode for quite some time now

vapid moth
#

it may be just for the zandalari and kul tiran druids, but people will come back

marble hemlock
#

doesnt seem like blizz really tries to appeal to new players, but keep as many of the old ones around as possible

#

with the obvious surge of returning players every xpac

shrewd oriole
#

Don’t need new players

vapid moth
#

im a new player

shrewd oriole
#

Yeah they did it for 3 weeks

marble hemlock
#

been playing this shit game for 14years now ><

vapid moth
#

there isnt really a way to cater to new players

marble hemlock
#

send help

vapid moth
#

i started in August

shrewd oriole
#

They raided on method levels

marble hemlock
#

MMOs in general are just not that hot anymore

vapid moth
#

true

marble hemlock
#

most of them take up so much of your time that you cannot play multiple ones

#

and everyone interested in an mmo already got theirs

#

so people rarely switch between them

vapid moth
#

wait till VR pops up

#

gonna have a surge of new MMOs

slim estuary
#

I’m a fresh player. Only hit 110 in TOS

shrewd oriole
#

Mmos are time consuming

#

People pref quick games

#

You can just jump in

#

Play

#

And leave

#

Like league

#

That’s the popular shit nowadays

slim estuary
#

That was my mentality why I hadn’t got on wow earlier.

#

I tried to stay away from the grind games.

shrewd oriole
#

You and most everyone else

#

They are decreasing in popularity

marble hemlock
#

mmos lost a bunch of their players to dota/dayz clones, and the ones that still play mmos usually are rooted into a single one, because its impossible to have a functional life and play more than one MMO

shrewd oriole
#

yeah lol

#

Oh god

#

Don’t talk about towellie

#

Cringe with a hard R

marble hemlock
#

theres less and less new mmos coming out, because its hard to get a working community going, especially since by now you have to compete with all those "big" MMOs like wow, eso, gw2, ffxiv or bdo, who sometimes have years or even more than a decade of features/quality of life changes etc.

shrewd oriole
#

Ye

#

It’s impossible to compete p much

slim estuary
#

I joined cause my brother in law wanted to play with me but still to this day we’ve never played together. I got addicted and here we are.

shrewd oriole
#

Rip

marble hemlock
#

eventually you return to the one that you enjoy the most

shrewd oriole
#

Some of my world tome in WoW was playing with irl friends

#

I got an ex gf into wow cuz her dad was big into wow

#

Lmao

marble hemlock
#

i really liked lotro for example, the atmossphere was great, but eventually it just became clear that wow is the one and onyl mmo for me due to pve endgame being the best out of all available mmos

shrewd oriole
#

She was so crap at the game

civic palm
marble hemlock
#

we can be toxic

#

about our conversation

shrewd oriole
#

She was so bad that it was legit a turn off

marble hemlock
#

does that count as assassination discussion then?

shrewd oriole
#

Toxic would be to say

#

Towellie is a retard

civic palm
#

Yeah just be nasty, ezpz.

shrewd oriole
#

But I wouldn’t say that

slim estuary
#

Hahahaha. My partner is leterally@like an rp-er. She is only interested in leveling and the story

marble hemlock
#

i mean

#

thats the blatant truth

shrewd oriole
#

I can respect that tho grant

slim estuary
#

Fuck my spelling though

shrewd oriole
#

She was just really bad at p much every video game

#

Her reflexes were shit

marble hemlock
#

BDO wouldve been perfect, but it has more fucking rng than legion

shrewd oriole
#

And she had a terrible time remembering binds

#

We tried to play kingdomhearts 2 together and she legit couldn’t cast spells

#

Cuz she’d forget the bind and have to read it

#

Meanwhile she was dead

#

Shit was so frustrating

#

Big turn off

spare cloud
#

Where is the guild master on horde

civic palm
#

Kingdom Hearts is one of the worst games ever made.

marble hemlock
#

shrewd oriole
#

What the fuck

#

Can we ban mize

shrewd oriole

unless they changed it

slim estuary
#

I got PCSX2 just to play KH

civic palm
#

You people just have awful fucking taste and don't like fun games.

shrewd oriole
#

Kh is great

#

What the fuck

#

Kh is so fun

civic palm
#

Hey it's a JRPG with no likable characters.

shrewd oriole
#

?????

civic palm
#

Hey it's a game with some of the worst camera angles, of literally all time.

marble hemlock
#

nah

#

that trophy is being held by NWN2

shrewd oriole
#

I hope he is

civic palm
#

Considered I played it within the year, nah.

#

I had to go back and play it, still as bad as I remember.

#

Just not my cup of tea.

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

shrewd oriole
#

How do you block people in discord

#

Asking for a friend

civic palm
#

That's just like... censorship... man.

shrewd oriole
#

Wait this ain’t google

marble hemlock
#

stop being toxic you mean?

civic palm
#

also...

marble hemlock
#

🤔

civic palm
#

World of Warcraft wasn't very good in Vanilla.

shrewd oriole
#

I mean that’s a given

marble hemlock
#

it was good enough

civic palm
#

also...

marble hemlock
#

and tbc was amazing

shrewd oriole
#

Tbc was amazing

civic palm
#

Kingdom Hearts got worse the more games released.

shrewd oriole
#

Hands down

celest mirage
#

can you cloak/evasion the sythe dmg on argus

civic palm
#

and then they released a bad card battle combat system, not good.

#

TBC was dope.

spare cloud
#

Wow raiding wasn't very good until woltk

civic palm
#

dope dope dope

marble hemlock
#

grinding fucking demons all day every day for the aldor reputation sword :<

civic palm
#

The systems around raiding in Vanilla were preeeeetty bad.

marble hemlock
#

had some good ideas though

shrewd oriole
#

The pvp ranks was probably the worst one

civic palm
#

They were neat, but just... fucking... awful.

spare cloud
#

Guys I need to make another Guild

marble hemlock
#

zg was cool

spare cloud
#

Can you help me again

marble hemlock
#

so was the finalized diremaul

civic palm
#

ZG was neat until you didn't do it until you were progressing in Naxx and needed the buff.

marble hemlock
#

still remember grinding DM for weeks so our MT could get QS

civic palm
#

Kinda wish they would bring back the rep. gating and token drops from ZG though.

#

New Alpha build?!

marble hemlock
#

ye

#

just finished downloading

#

havent touched alpha yet tho :/

civic palm
#

A new Battle for Azeroth feature, Island Expeditions, is now available for testing for characters at level 110 or higher. Your level and item level will be automatically adjusted to level 120 values.

#

Getting new systems finally.

#

Hawt.

#

Sounds like Zorbix is triggered by some of the MDI team names > _>

marble hemlock
#

yeah

#

we just kept ours

#

well, the one of the rsham

#

dont think ours wouldve been allowed 😄

civic palm
#

People making meme's and just not using fucking Guild Names. Guess that's kinda killing the fun but stiiiillll

#

Though it's not like all of the people on a team from always from the same guild.

marble hemlock
#

thats actually

#

very rarely the case

#

in my experience

civic palm
#

Yeah.

marble hemlock
#

i mean

#

only topteam thats in the same guild

#

would be the scrubbusters one

civic palm
#

Yeah.

marble hemlock
#

and penthes team

#

is from the same guild too i think

spare cloud
#

but isnt the dh from scrubbusters in fragnances team

marble hemlock
#

fralle is playing with jimmy/mike/robin, yeah

spare cloud
#

so that would be kinda misleading as well if they just named it after guild

civic palm
#

Yep.

#

I'd rather them have more team like names and not just MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEME though.

primal tangle
#

I was farming ToS for bracers

#

Bam

drifting cloud
#

and their team is sponsored by method

primal tangle
#

960 boe

drifting cloud
#

even tho only 1 guy raids in method

#

🤔

spare cloud
#

"Jimmy's M+ Team"

keen inlet
#

ahem

marble hemlock
#

they didnt get sponsored as a team

#

its because theyre prominent streamers

spare cloud
#

Is Fragnance still in method btw?

marble hemlock
#

so why not get them into the method-team of streamers

spare cloud
#

Isnt he raiding with future

civic palm
#

Ahem INDEED.

marble hemlock
#

hes with future

civic palm
#

People have moved around since last MDI for sure.

marble hemlock
#

so he can stream progress and everything

spare cloud
#

because he still has <Method> in the title

marble hemlock
#

its the same for the us boys

spare cloud
#

but I guess thats just sponsor

marble hemlock
#

they mostly got into method because theyre streaming a lot, doesnt matter how they perform at MDI

drifting cloud
#

its streaming contract

civic palm
#

mmm, expensive salamiii

true warren
#

So whats the better build - bleed or poison?

wind rain
#

ppl still play bleed?

#

i will believe it when i see it

grim canopy
#

boots ever good in m+?

cursive root
#

not over cloak/shoulders

celest mirage
#

cloak even good for sin?

#

in m+?

plain thistle
#

no, shoulder+bracer

austere tendon
#

Cloak is only good if you have moments of long enough down time and doing a big burst aoe.
Imps on CoS, Spiders on BRH and such.

#

but anything beyond that, it is not as good as bracers / shoulder combo.

grim canopy
#

alright cause all I had left was boots and I rather start working on sub now

#

want fists of death

strange python
#

i always get excited when i see red names but jhon is playing alac

#

but w8 are you playing alac in m+ or nah

grim canopy
#

what does red name mean?

primal tangle
#

It means they like bleedy bois.

#

At least that's what i think they might honestly just have that red name from past times

safe matrix
#

Bleed build

#

There are 2 and a half currently viable builds

#

green for poison

#

red for bleed

#

generally it means they play/sexually identify as that build

gilded lark
#

🤔

civic palm
#

This is true.

fervent beacon
#

@safe matrix and there's also yellow for ALACRITY. PRAISE THE HASTE.

#

🙏

safe matrix
#

Yeah

#

I said half

strange python
#

Assassin any good for m+?

restive elm
#

Should I be FoN at 3 combo points if I have 5 Poison Knives traits and don't want to waste combo points? Seem to waste a lot with 48% Mut crit chance

gaunt moat
#

So, what's your guys thoughts on having the Cloak Legendary replacing MfD at tier 100?

strange python
#

depends on whats in the tier with it

#

venom rush feels so good kinda hard to not want it in all situations

gaunt moat
#

tier 100 is:
Poison Bomb - Hidden Blades (new) - Crimson Tempest

tight meteor
#

isnt the cloak kinda bad for sin

#

i thought we just pray for a pb proc in aoe

#

so we take pb anyway?

fleet whale
#

well i'm kind of glad marked for death is gone for sin as it's been a dead talent for a long time now, but I'm not sure if I wanted it to be replaced by the leggo cloak

#

three aoe talents in the same tier...

gaunt moat
#

MfD replaced Alacrity in the 45 Tier

I'm just interested in people thoughts about the cloaks legendary as a talent
have you guys ever used the cloak substantially in legion?

tight meteor
#

not as sin no :/

fleet whale
#

last time I used cloak was heroic mistress with glaives, and I even stopped using in then after the first couple of kills

brisk forge
#

Nope, not really worth it as assa

fleet whale
#

would have rather have seen the pvp talent there over the cloak...

steep obsidian
#

cloak lego as a talent is a good idea

#

the cloak is at least something interesting to pay attention to

gaunt moat
#

did you ever play with it sabod?

steep obsidian
#

as sin?

#

nah not normally

#

as sub sure

gaunt moat
#

well obviously as sin heh

steep obsidian
#

it was sorta fun to have some burst for adds back when it was like the 2nd lego that i got

#

like the little adds that walk in on the first boss in vault n stuff like that

#

i think sin players use it in high keys going from the logs on wcl though

#

but mos rogues in high keys playing sub anyway

#

like really high keys

gaunt moat
#

hmm, how can i see most used legendaries at high keys

tight meteor
#

raider.io but it doesnt show gear swaps mid dungeons i think

grim canopy
#

why would they put cloack as talent for sin does anyone at blizz play rogue

gilded lark
#

no

#

look at the class all expansion ofc they don't play rogue

gaunt moat
#

looking at raider.io, still don't see a way to filter by legendaries

#

or even spec

frozen pecan
#

you can't you have to click trough them to see it

#

not really a way to see most used legendaries

gaunt moat
#

yeah i kinda doubt that they use cloak

frozen pecan
#

nah don't think so either

drowsy parcel
#

whats the question

#

if you use cloak on higher keys as sin? you dont

#

bracers better 100% of the time

gaunt moat
#

the question was have you ever used it, and what are you thoughts on it

#

(AS SIN)

drowsy parcel
#

i've used it and its not worth it

#

sin has no multipliers to boost it like sub does

frozen pecan
#

I had to use it a while since I didn't have any other options, I thought it was pretty meh but so was my gear back then

drowsy parcel
#

might be better in a fringe scenario where you stack 30 stacks before starting and do a really quick mass pull or smth

#

but probably better still to just use bracers

frozen pecan
#

I kind of feels like the replaced a usless talent (MfD) with another useless talent

gaunt moat
frozen pecan
#

lul

#

How do you like the alpha so far?

gaunt moat
#

MfD still exist, replaces alacrity

frozen pecan
#

what? Flowi won't like that lol

gaunt moat
#

haven't played much of it yet. new zandalri zone looks cool, but very unfinished

tight meteor
#

is the bleeds scaling with hastethat significant notter?

#

do you think it will change how we play?

gaunt moat
#

haven't tested it enough
if it would change gameplay?
hard to say... there's not much to do as assassination right now

#

so what would it change

tight meteor
#

like if haste stacking becomes better maybe poison bomb might not be the go to talent? idk

gaunt moat
#

what does haste have to do with PB?

tight meteor
#

well if haste is better and we prioritize mastery lower pb isnt as good right

lone junco
#

haste and CT

#

i doubt it will ever be good enough to take a 12sec ct at 2sec ticks, turn it to 1.6sec tics. bleh

#

but we'll see.

steep obsidian
#

i havent fiddled with ct on alpha yet but tuning is normally the last thing they worry about

#

they prolly do some basic tuning for raid testing

lone junco
#

its not a tuning thing. It is haste on a 12sec bleed. I guess it is short enough duration that it might be good, but its not like we will spam it.

#

mut mut CT.

steep obsidian
#

there is def some logs on wcl of guys using the cloak as sin in high mythics, one asian dude specifically but who the hell logs mythics anyway

lone junco
#

if i did competitive, i would certainly log. would be ablt to see cooldown timings.

#

hi guys 😃

quick talon
#

Hello

gilded lark
#

nitro ran out

gaunt moat
#

🎊

quick talon
#

I still can’t react 😦

#

Oh i can react again

gaunt moat
#

I think that hidden knives are still too slow.
20 stacks over 40 seconds. for 4 times the damage.

so basically for every 10 seconds you don't use FoK, you get an "extra" FoK
EXCEPT.
you don't get the CP.

i dunno, it's a hard sell to convince me to use that. considering that FoK historically was never a big damage ability.

vapid moth
#

They really put cloak as a talent?

gaunt moat
#

for ST it's absolutely garbage. at 400% damage it does about the same damage as a 5CP single envenom.

#

so getting an extra "envenom" every 40 seconds is... meh.

grim canopy
#

damn no one really plays rogue at that whole building it seems

frozen pecan
#

That's what I thought, too slow not enough damage

vapid moth
#

Can I get a link to this shit

gilded lark
#

just get alpha access GWrjkKappaLUL

vapid moth
#

Lmao

undone lodge
#

guys what is this time sands icon cooldown displayed in my WA?

gilded lark
#

probably

#

timewarp

vapid moth
#

I've only been playing 6 months blizz won't gimme no access

frozen pecan
#

I don't understand their reasoning to put that as a lvl 100 talent, they should know it's garbage since no one uses cloak right now not even for bombing

gilded lark
#

legion babies

#

worse than wrath babies

vapid moth
#

you love me hush

grim canopy
#

they don't know its garbage because Monk is the closest thing they played to rogue

#

for years

gilded lark
fervent beacon
#

If it stacked rather quickly than currently, it would be pretty decent but honestly it's still trash and PB will be better imo

gilded lark
#

monk spins so

#

obviously

#

rogue spin is good too

#

4head

ornate valley
gilded lark
#

you probably didn't deserve it

grim canopy
#

how bad is the nerfed talent version of the shoulders

gaunt moat
#

@frozen pecan less garbage than MfD for AoE.

well in any case, i don't think it's gonna stay the same way it is currently.
but it will be something similar.

frozen pecan
#

true but still probably not viable for any content. But yea it's still early alpha so lets wait and see what they are going to do.

grim canopy
#

maybe world quests

#

=\

frozen pecan
#

dispatch... so they gave us execute?

gaunt moat
#

gave us "back"
it was a rogue ability in the past

frozen pecan
#

huh? when

gaunt moat
#

since mists

#

was removed in legion

frozen pecan
#

ah ok, didn't play rogue in mists and wod, hardly played those two expansions at all

strange python
#

@grim canopy why call it nerfed???

#

It's literally the same thing

gaunt moat
#

it's... not

#

it's a nerfed version

#

by far

strange python
#

How tho

#

Wasn t it just the 50% crit for 3 sec

fervent beacon
#

Currently its 100% for 5s

#

so it is a nerfed version.

#

and its something that you can talent into instead of equipping a piece as well

stark heart
#

@gaunt moat 5 times the damage tho

ornate valley
#

if I got shoulders then I switch to NS?

stark heart
#

(about hidden blades)

frozen pecan
#

@ornate valley yes

ornate valley
#

ty

gaunt moat
#

@stark heart i'm not a smart mathematicianist. why is 400% increase = 5 times?

#

i guess cause it's "additional"?

safe matrix
#

wouldnt it be a 333% increase?

stark heart
#

Because increased by x% is 1+x%

safe matrix
#

because double from 50->100
and length increase from 3->5
2*5/3=3.33

stark heart
#

Otherwise by your logic increased by 20% would be lower damage than baseline

gaunt moat
#

yeah

#

well, i'm dumb at math
but even times 5, it's about the same damage of a single envenom (currently)

stark heart
#

Well it's AoE

#

I am not a fan of that talent either

#

But for different reason

#

Think we discussed with weak pretty thoroughly that topic

gaunt moat
#

the other two talents are also AoE yet may give you more gain in ST (at least PB)

stark heart
#

I'll try to tl dr when I swap another subway line

#

I'll try to tl dr when I swap another subway line

#

what are you guys talking about?

#

crimson tempest?

gaunt moat
#

Hidden Blades (cloak legendary as talent)

fervent beacon
#

Seems like they're slowly baking in artifact abilities/legendaries in talent now

safe matrix
#

I don't think its great really

Because you have to weigh in the loss of not using fok

so it can stack to relevancy

Ep for outlaw I don't get at all

#

Tbh

fervent beacon
#

I kind of do but its basically going to boost Broadside/Buried treasure as the most wanted buff to maintain EP uptime

safe matrix
#

anyone have the link to the most recent class changes?

grim canopy
#

ya become a monk

gaunt moat
steep obsidian
#

yeah hidden blades capping at 20 stacks seems really underwhelming for a 100 talent

safe matrix
#

aight, I was checking wowhead

#

like a dolt

steep obsidian
#

ive been playing poison bomb and it procs a fair bit with the changes even though it doesnt do as much damage

fervent beacon
#

I honestly don't see sin ever using hidden place when you got CT which is on demand aoe finisher

#

or you can risk the RNG with PB.

steep obsidian
#

pb is a 25% chance per finisher

#

so not too bad

fervent beacon
#

30% with DS

steep obsidian
#

yeh

grim canopy
#

o shit does it still do same dmg?

#

i mrean reletively

fervent beacon
#

I'm assume its nerf damage but more 'consistent'

#

so could be even in the longer run

safe matrix
#

isnt it "Poison Bomb Envenom and Rupture have a 4% chance% chance per combo point spent"

#

so that's 20% per full spender

#

and 24% per DS finisher?

steep obsidian
#

im guessing the master asassin talent might still be decent for dung

grim canopy
#

imo buff to 5sec

fervent beacon
#

I think it got buffed to 5%

safe matrix
#

I mean it says chance%

#

its probably just an error on the website

gaunt moat
#

Can confirm it's 5% now.
But pb only 2sec now

#

From 3

#

Good change imo

stark heart
#

Doesn't make it good 😦

safe matrix
#

Technically a nerf

stark heart
#

When pb drops and boss moved

safe matrix
#

but its better for those cases^^

tight meteor
#

😄 🔫

gaunt moat
#

That's eactly why it's a good change lorentz

#

More PB.
And less duration - less time wasted by boss moving out

frozen pecan
#

makes sense 😁

safe matrix
#

I mean it still is a nerf

#

but its healthy

gaunt moat
#

if people complain about PB nerf, just slap em'
we wanted to nerf PB whole legion heh

safe matrix
#

nah its way more consistent

#

but with the damage nerf

#

its like 0.93 comapred to the previous iteration

onyx falcon
#

this PB "nerf" you guys are talking about, is it a current thing or BFA thing

tight meteor
#

bfa

onyx falcon
#

ah mk

#

yea 4% -> 5% and 3 secs -> 2 secs, i mean sounds like it would be better imo

hey guys, i have a question regarding notters WA. Im playing sub and assa. im using notters WA for assa and some other for sub. but always when i talent into assa, notters "cd rogue" WA shows me off all CDs from all specs, also overrides some assa cds with sub cds :/ has anyone had this problem ?

fervent beacon
#

@gaunt moat ^

bronze kelp
#

thx 😃

frozen pecan
#

@ebon sedge open with garrote -> mutilate -> rupture -> vendetta -> tb -> kb -> vanish -> env -> mut -> env

#

you can also look in the pins

#

for the guide

gaunt moat
#

hmmmm, never heard that happening to anyone else

#

my sub WAs are not great though.

onyx falcon
#

what nefy said

fervent beacon
#

I know I ran into some minor issue but I was able to fix it in notter WA setting to only show the current spec cooldowns

onyx falcon
#

@frozen pecan had a small stroke after taking a look at that opener

fervent beacon
#

So you would want to check off the outlaw and subletly for sin spec.

frozen pecan
#

haha ye, that's a pretty weird opener

fervent beacon
#

I also noticed that he mut twice after vanishing, but that's dues to first mut missing the offhand mut.

onyx falcon
#

im not that good w/ logs, cant tell where s/he vanished

ebon sedge
#

Yea boss was tanked kinda weird

#

for opener

frozen pecan
#

still, try to follow the correct order

fervent beacon
#

Actually, I think you guys are fucked, he's doing it right

ebon sedge
#

@frozen pecan Is that not what I did?

tight meteor
#

yeah confused too

#

looks right to me

frozen pecan
#

what am I looking at then lol

fervent beacon
#

you were looking at coven i think

onyx falcon
#

looking at vari o.o

tight meteor
stark heart
#

there are no nerf on alpha lol

#

even "technical"

frozen pecan
#

oh shit lol my bad

fervent beacon
stark heart
#

because it's alpha

onyx falcon
#

wtf am i looking at

ebon sedge
#

Yea I linked wrong one first

frozen pecan
#

haha ok then you are fine mate

onyx falcon
stark heart
#

@gaunt moat well it's not bad change to PB but it doesn't really solve underlying issue - player can't control when and where PB drops. If we could at least control when that'd be okay but we have both and that is the main problem for me

#

I just imagine myself playing Assa on Mistress and die inside

gaunt moat
#

yeah i'm not arguing that i like how PB is
just that this specific change is a positive imo

grim canopy
#

is acid a poison?

#

in real life

stark heart
#

it's positive for sure

fervent beacon
#

positive that acid a poison in real life.

frozen pecan
#

acid is acid

safe matrix
#

no its not

#

acid is its own class

frozen pecan
#

acid is corrosive while a poison interfers with your internal biology

safe matrix
#

poison goes by affecting nerves and stuff, acid just corrodes and eats away at things.

nocturne gate
#

guys a quick question how long should i max delay kb and vendetta for each other

undone lodge
onyx falcon
#

@nocturne gate i think in the Bunny's guide, he says no more than 5 seconds?

undone lodge
#

5 secs

onyx falcon
#

• Use Toxic Blade either the last 8 seconds of Kingsbane duration or on cooldown. Do not delay your Toxic Blade more than 5 seconds waiting for Kingsbane. If Vendetta is coming up you can delay as well.

undone lodge
#

maybe less than 2-3 secs?

onyx falcon
#

honestly, all these are just guideline, it also depends on mechs too

#

like on kingor ive held TB/KB/Vend for ~10 secs cause i was waiting for the add to come up

nocturne gate
#

ok and the other question someone tips for kingaroth ? ^^ its the only boss where i parse under80

onyx falcon
#

save your CDs for the adds

stark heart
#

pray very hard

nocturne gate
#

and the opener ?

steep obsidian
#

have eveyrone get the fuck away frmo the add you kliing

undone lodge
#

all i did was waiting for another opener sequence....lazy gaming

onyx falcon
#

k well 🙏 for poisonbomb is every fight

#

its a normal opener

#

you have more than enough time to dish out a full opener

stark heart
#

on Kin it's amplified because you need that PB at the start in mantle

#

what build you play?

#

on Kin

nocturne gate
#

normal mantle+bracer

#

tb

stark heart
#

I play boots there tbh

#

well open with TB + KB, save vendetta and bantle for adds

#

if you play bracers then vendetta only on adds

#

save cp and energy for adds

#

like usual stuff

nocturne gate
#

hm guess i try boots+bracer today

frozen pecan
#

Hm I usually have enough time to get vendetta back during the add phase but that depends on your group

stark heart
#

boots allow you to have one ven on add, one on boss, one on add

#

etc

onyx falcon
#

i think its better for mantle braces imo, only cause boots will fk your vend CD up w/ the adds

stark heart
#

I mean I have ven on every add wave

#
  • I use it on boss once inbetween
nocturne gate
#

but ihave only one ma trait

onyx falcon
#

and top 15 logs as sin are using mantle bracers too

#

yea that might be a problem

safe matrix
#

thats just because mantle bracer has a high variance

stark heart
#

I have 2 ma but ven is not tightly ready

safe matrix
#

if you get lucky you can go big dick

nocturne gate
#

i tryed and find out ive usually have every min a vendetta instead of 1,27min

safe matrix
#

but iirc averagely its deceiving

stark heart
#

I mean it's up to you but it's just how I play

nocturne gate
#

most pareses are 5-6min

stark heart
#

heroic?

frozen pecan
#

you need 3 ma to get high sims with boots right?

nocturne gate
#

kin is on progression

#

myth

#

so we dont have him down this is why i search for tips^^

stark heart
#

5 mins kin

frozen pecan
#

until whipe

#

I guess

stark heart
#

I mean our farm kill is 7:40, and I found only 6:10 best time on wcl

nocturne gate
#

theunder 80 logs are for hc but i want regular tips for myth

steep obsidian
#

the main tip for mythic kinga is

#

dont stand in bombs then boss die

nocturne gate
#

:d

steep obsidian
#

you might do more add damage with shoulder bracers but you can fit in extra vendettas on the boss with shoulders boots

stark heart
#

bracers only work when damage amp on adds is low

#

for consistency sake I'd play boots

#

then again I played Sub on prog lul

undone lodge
#

sabod..on normal raid should i garrote all the adds, even the furthest?

fervent beacon
#

Why would you do that, just focus on one add.

grim canopy
#

oh damn i dont have boots

#

i switched to sub loot

fervent beacon
#

but it has been awhile since i done normal so Im just too used to mythic.

frozen pecan
#

you wanna garrote all adds on kinga? lol?

grim canopy

what bosses is boots best on

not pastrticularly on kinga, tho

As someone who's juggling between 22-27%

why is there no crit/mastery neck in antorus

I could go to 46% crit with 160% mastery and 10% versa

i have 47% crit 135% mastery and 15% versa

go subt

Yeah I was gonna sim that as well

marble hemlock

but since y oure already clipping envenom/virulent poisons anyway, EP isnt really something you have to play around i suppose

How come subt is a thing with EP? I dont get the synergy, might be too early for that too.

@gusty kestrel you need to change your name, what is alacrity? i see no such ability in my rogue talents

about 30k loss

Might be worth playing that on bosses that allow cleave

like felhounds

might be an increase

or coven

#

also it's probably more consisten

shrewd night
#

The cleave would have to have higher uptime than hounds though. I think it would be good for Council, but nothing outside of that

spare cloud
#

its with ravenholdt ring

#

thats what I mean with cleave

#

I'd just hit them both with them juicy mutilates

thorn summit
#

I think mine only accumulates to 1.6m atm in 950, but I guess its more to do with bad legendaries than anything

spare cloud
#

the dmg is insane

#

it's like 60 Mil dmg on those fights

shrewd night
#

I'd just hit them both with them juicy mutilates

#

So we not talking mythic then

spare cloud
#

Yeah it sims 30k less

#

so we're probably just talking niché situations

shrewd night
#

Tho for real

#

Id try it on council just for giggles

#

That add damage yaknow

spare cloud
#

maybe it will increase once I'm bloodelf with the crit

#

probablym favors that build

#

maybe increases it by a few k

#

its probably worse on council with average pb proccs

#

than poison build

#

pretty sure its way more consistent though

#

probably also feels better to play

#

with 65% mutilate crit

tfw only 48% mut crit but you've got 6/6 BB

oh doh, logged out as outlaw

my other choice was a 945 crit/mastery, and it simmed worse

the haste/vers ring simmed worse

than an equal ilvl crit/mastery?

*simmed better

I have a 975 haste/mastery ring

high haste or low haste?

either way, it shouldnt beat a crit/mastery, even at 30ilvl difference

meh, could be i guess

well I also use tier gloves because of high mastery right

Hi everyone! I am pretty new to rogue and i am trying to improve my gameplay. A friend told me you could help if i gave you some logs? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Cn7NhPwqapfAQxmF/ here is my last raid and my name is Starfa in game. I would like anytips for more dps 😦

so about 45% crit once eoc is stacked, and crit is still almost better than mastery
