lone junco
#

if you are to look at statistics.

sullen mountain
#

i got a R1 parse as UH DK third week on PK because i was only 1 of 3 people in the US with 970 ilvl

drifting cloud
#

dont bother with ilvl parses with noobe you wont get anywhere ;d

sullen mountain
#

AMA

lost horizon
#

Right, but you're inherently at an advantage with your setup, for your ilvl

lone junco
#

sure. i would be low orange purple as bleed with my poison ilvl

lost horizon
#

Had a lock accidentally forget to take off his lovely charm bracelet or some shit

#

Parsed 100by ilvl like 3 times going 'why tf is my dmg so low'

lone junco
#

tbh, i dont care about ilvl parse as much as I do beating simc for that attempt

lost horizon
#

Before he realized

sullen mountain
#

orange is all that matters

lone junco
#

meh.

lost horizon
#

I think the simC comparison is MORE valid for exsang

#

But it's still iffy in my books

lone junco
#

most of my advice is for people that are grey/green/blue/purple anyway

#

but i get people asking log review for mythic argus progress

lost horizon
#

Yeah and it works like a charm there

#

It's also the standard issue though

lone junco
#

it is what it is.

lost horizon
#

Dude in here earlier was purple avg wasn't he? Like that's fine

#

Just depends on your standards

lone junco
#

no one can roast my bota fishing. cause idc what the apl says

#

my fave ABSOLUTE fave

#

are people with 99 99 99 heroic. but green by ilvl.

#

975 and no fucking clue how to play

#

NO CLUE

#

thems my fav

strange python
#

ooo thats me, 970 and no clue, thats me ๐Ÿ˜„

lone junco
#

people say ilvl is hard at 974

#

bullshit

lost horizon
#

Er

lone junco
#

its just a bell curve.

lost horizon
#

Tbh that's fair LOL

lone junco
#

if you are 50 you are avg

lost horizon
#

Ilvl gets thrown out of wack

#

On upper end and lower end

lone junco
#

if you are 12. at 978 that means. you are not good

#

compared to your peers

lost horizon
#

Just like how captain lovely charm bracelet got ez 100s

vestal wren
#

speaking about parses on a spec where pb impact is the main parse reason ๐Ÿค”

lone junco
#

pb doesnt make you grey

lost horizon
#

Fuu with the bait

sullen mountain
#

no but it does make you R1

sharp viper
#

@vestal wren ssshhhhh my 20% poisonbomb dmg on high command is pure skill

#

3.3m dps thanks to skillbomb

sullen mountain
#

hey those pbs just dont come out of nowhere! you gotta cast a finisher

vestal wren
#

i know those ppl with 30% pb procs are the first pointing out their skill due to logs

sharp viper
#

just because i am that good /saber

lost horizon
#

Honestly I haven't checked my ilvl parses for a very long time, I could be in that boat

#

I know there's times where I've parsed garbage for ilvl but still decent overall, and honestly

lone junco
#

Its all PB right?

#

cause this is pretty consistent

lost horizon
#

If that's in heroic... A lot of the time it's cheeeesy af

sullen mountain
#

its mythic

lost horizon
#

Nah not the thing noobe linked

#

I'm slow on mobile

vestal wren
#

its not all pb

sullen mountain
#

thats def not all pb because that fight is 90% single target

vestal wren
#

parses are not only personal effort tho

lost horizon
#

And to be fair @lone junco you did pick a really good player on a fight where PB is less relevant

lone junco
#

he is just good on all fights.

#

ilvl and overall.

#

its a bell curve. and hes good.

sharp viper
#

gear is also a factor

lone junco
#

ofc it is.

sullen mountain
#

that guy is like top 10 US rogue players easy hahah

lone junco
#

sure.

vestal wren
#

gear, strategie, luck, killtime

lost horizon
#

He's also using 4+2, inherent ilvl advantage

#

No discredit, he's a god

vestal wren
#

e.g. look at the top sub parses on high command

#

the raid team literally let some ppl do adds alone

#

#skill

sullen mountain
#

bruh

#

go look at spriest parses on heroic argus

lost horizon
#

But honestly ilvl parses get very heavily skewed

sullen mountain
#

they literally solo the intermission

lost horizon
#

Not a consistent metric

#

Fury warrior on garothi soloing execute phase

lone junco
#

@vestal wren yeah, ive seen people just die to let 4 dps handle all adds

#

its pretty gross

lost horizon
#

Lots of cheese

vestal wren
#

still you insist that parses messure skill

#

๐Ÿคท

sullen mountain
#

they measure epeen

#

and mines gonna be the biggest

#

who wants to look at my parses

lone junco
#

I dont gaf about max parses.

#

never said i did.

#

I care about consistent high avg.

#

and personally want to beat my simc expectation.

#

I personally will never be 100gold in heroic, with people stomping it in mythic gear

#

so Ilvl is all i have to see if Im doing a good job or not.

#

i always make mistakes

#

can roast my own log and find 50

#

every time

sullen mountain
#

thats why theres logs for ilvl and damage

sharp viper
#

the median is way more interesting than best performances due to the rng mentioned

vestal wren
#

itemlvl measures agains the same itemlvl

lost horizon
#

By ilvl is a good metric for if you're about avg ilvl or slightly below/above

lone junco
#

ilvl is a smaller bell curve for sure.

vestal wren
#

tho it is due to the small sample size w/e

lone junco
#

I prefer compare tool

vestal wren
#

you cant apply the bell curve

#

as its not the same base for everyone

#

e.g. you assume everyone has the same gear, good team, killtime,strategie

#

if thats true you could say the distribution matches a bell curve

lone junco
#

for that fight. I did ok.

#

based on things I can control

vestal wren
#

e.g. alone the time you get to the boss decides your log

drifting cloud
#

like I said 10 min ago pointless discussion ๐Ÿ˜„

lone junco
#

๐Ÿ‘Œ

sullen mountain
#

now

#

lets got to the outlaw channel and talk about RtB if yall really wanna talk about RNG

vestal wren
#

i had a slightly higher killtime, worse gear and points in the weapon parsing 85-90%tile or so, while pyllero parsed 100%tile on the fight with lower damage etc...

lone junco
#

thats why Raid leads requireing orange or what not, is rediculous.

vestal wren
#

looking at early logs you would say pyllero is best rogue 100%tile ....

#

just to get beaten by a lower equiped rogue TC with a worse raid group

sullen mountain
#

there are no other metrics in this game for skill unless you read everyones ability use log

vestal wren
#

that doesent even have the same amount of gear

lost horizon
#

Well I mean to be fair expecting a decent performance avg isn't unreasonable

lone junco
#

same. my logs are good cause we dont have 2 warriors to steal the execute

lost horizon
#

Depending on the content you're doing ofc

lone junco
#

@lost horizon i want our guys to be 75% ilvl.

#

not unreasonable. better than the masses

strange python
#

Like how my argus logs are dope since I'm the only person hitting the nature damage add

lone junco
#

doesnt happen. but its a good target

lost horizon
#

Right, but if you have them all doing 75% by ilvl at 935... Rip

#

Need a mix of both

lone junco
#

tbh, i wish more people beat me in overall dps

#

thats all i care about.

lost horizon
#

Right on, and that's awesome for the content you're running, same for me

#

I like parses and shit but

sullen mountain
#

it is all about being on top

lost horizon
#

I try to compete within my raid cause it's more applicable

sullen mountain
#

hes got a point

lone junco
#

fucking coven

#

I dont want to be top

lost horizon
#

I'm not a great player, but it's fun to compare and improve

sullen mountain
#

that warlock sucks

lost horizon
#

Ah man when I beat my locks on coven ๐Ÿ‘Œ ๐Ÿ‘Œ

#

Felt good

sullen mountain
#

l o l

lost horizon
#

Then bad

lone junco
#

he died tho

lost horizon
#

But still good

sullen mountain
#

even worse :X

lost horizon
#

I'm still without a coven kill, feelsbadman

strange python
#

It's ok we don't have Tom to lose his mind whenever someone says the word parse

lone junco
#

PLUS. we all know that good parses come from deaths

#

grats bracers

drifting cloud
#

atleast were not rets

#

then this discussion would be even 3x more pointless

lost horizon
#

LOL ret.. oof

drifting cloud
#

when you literally need people to suicide for your logs

lone junco
#

anyway, yeah i still do log reviews, as a heroic scrub

sullen mountain
#

i dont need people to suicide in my raid when 2 people die every pull anyways ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

#

maybe i should roll ret

lone junco
#

sounds awful

strange python
#

its ok noobe, right here with you.

#

well, I did garothi a few times with pugs. does that count

lone junco
#

ugh.

#

since we are talking ๐Ÿง€ @vestal wren

#

enjoy this one

sullen mountain
#

PVE is a joke anyways boys

#

go do arena

vestal wren
#

most skilled shadow world

#

i assume angery ๐Ÿค”

sullen mountain
#

show me a 2400+ CR screenshot as RMP and ill take that over any 95% parser any day

spare cloud
#

thats a stupid thing to say

#

but good for you

sullen mountain
#

why not that means they have incredible game sense and communication

spare cloud
#

2400?

lone junco
sullen mountain
#

id rather gear a 910 2400+ rogue from RMP

spare cloud
#

thats like nothing

sullen mountain
#

lol

drifting cloud
#

pretty sure 3k players could get 2.4k being afk ๐Ÿ˜„

sullen mountain
#

ok but theres also only like 100 2400+ rogues in NA

#

if that

#

theres a hanful of R1 rogues NA

vestal wren
#

btw. i dont think logs are useless, but they are not a good messurement tool for skill.

spare cloud
#

theres less than one hundred rogues parsing 99+ everywhere

#

Rogues*

sullen mountain
#

i didnt say 99 did i

#

i said 95

#

cockc ass

spare cloud
#

there is also way more people playing pve

#

you gotta consider percentages ๐Ÿคท

strange python
#

damn he told you

spare cloud
#

but since thats not a thing in pvp

#

rip

sullen mountain
#

im saying a 2400+ rogue is better than a 95% rogue

spare cloud
#

They require two different skillsets

#

how can you even compare

#

thats like saying

drifting cloud
#

maybe we should compare minesweeper players aswell

#

about as relevant

spare cloud
#

I'd prefer a grandmaster in overwatch

drifting cloud
#

as your comparison

spare cloud
#

over a challenger in league

indigo jolt
#

hidden appearance is off rares in underbelly right?

strange python
#

yes verasin

spare cloud
#

I could probably get 2,4k in pvp with a little practice

#

and I suck at it

#

๐Ÿคท

lone junco
#

@vestal wren tools. of course. its a better tool than a label. but anyone that looks at logs or sims or play, should be able to distinguish situational complications. Like Pod time. or triple mut in shoulder.

sullen mountain
#

takes a lot of communication and game sense to get 2400 as rmp

steep obsidian
#

i know players who are shit on prog die all time and suck but they can parse 95+ on farm because they are selfish

indigo jolt
#

Ty connor

sullen mountain
#

not just arcane 1 shotting

steep obsidian
#

log rankings dont mean crap for a prog guild tbh

#

its just something to aim for

spare cloud
#

The skillsets are different

lone junco
#

i will say dps is far easier to review than healing.

spare cloud
#

the statement is nonsensical

#

thats it

#

You can't compare 2 different things

#

Like said

sullen mountain
#

it is to an extent yeah

spare cloud
#

"I prefer a challenger in league over a gm in overwatch"

vestal wren
#

btw. pvp rating has nothing to do with pve skill

final star
#

Excuse me

sullen mountain
#

how so

final star
#

Cheap shot

#

Is the best opener

gaunt moat
#

@steep obsidian tell me about it... all my gorothi worldbreaker parses suck
cause i'm the only one who goes to soak stuff, while the rest want to log good...

sullen mountain
#

bruh that was almost 10 years ago

drifting cloud
#

because you dont taunt in pvp

#

soo its harder

sullen mountain
#

but you do taunt in PVP LUL

drifting cloud
#

damn you got me good

steep obsidian
#

@gaunt moat my old guild would wipe repeatedly unless i soaked at the very back of the room on krosus and dpsed and interrupted as many adds as i could on the way, some ranged wouldn't take 2 steps

sullen mountain
#

no like im not kidding

#

tanks in pvp use taunt

steep obsidian
#

then we kill it "lol i got a 100% parse" 0 add damage 0 interrupts 0 stuns

gaunt moat
#

@steep obsidian same deal for us...
melee needed to run all the way to the back. cause ranged can't move 2 inches.

#

annoying as hell.

steep obsidian
#

mistress broke me, we had ranged who just wouldnt stop dpsing and pushing shit to fast and bursting down teh adds so we couldnt make gaps in the wall

lone junco
#

i edited it.

#

but yeah

steep obsidian
#

i havent raided mythic since

#

apart from a few bosses this tier just as a fill in

gaunt moat
#

@lone junco my brain already sent my finger a click order.

#

was nothing i could do.

lone junco
#

np

gaunt moat
#

a lot of guilds get stuck in progress, cause they recruit people based only on orange parses, without further inspection

#

for example, my old guild asked me to look at a rogue they wanted to recruit

#

he has good parses

#

but i looked at his history

#

he had grey parses for every boss at the start of tier... cause he died. all the time.

sullen mountain
#

but he learned so thats good

spare cloud
#

consistency > 1 good parse

drifting cloud
#

niche examples

#

so relevant

steep obsidian
#

that is the definition of a shit prog player though

lone junco
#

for the record Logs really really helped me. seeing what people are doing in timeline is far superior to a text list of abilities.

People shit on logs, but from an educational stand point to get people from grey to blue, they are FANTASTIC

gaunt moat
#

but you want someone who's good from the get-go. not someone who takes 2 months to learn @sullen mountain

steep obsidian
#

those players hold you back

gaunt moat
#

obviously improving is also important

steep obsidian
#

if you the first to die constantly on prog

sullen mountain
#

well thats not necessarily true notter

#

and you know that

#

he couldve just got back into the game

#

sea legs ya know

steep obsidian
#

unless they are giving you a hard job to do no reason to die as a rogue

#

and i don think any job has been hard for a few expacs ;P

lone junco
#

thats why I like rogue. so slippery.

gaunt moat
#

@sullen mountain that is also a valid reason. but even then, shouldn't die as much.

sullen mountain
#

yeah its reallyreally hard to die as a rogue unless youre literally blind

#

but still

steep obsidian
#

you can make twice as many mistakes as a rogue as a hunter

sullen mountain
#

especially for current tier prog

steep obsidian
#

and not die

sullen mountain
#

take him

#

but if youre recruiting for next xpac and relaly investing in this guy

#

maybe not

vestal wren
#

you can turtle as hunter

spare cloud
#

@steep obsidian youre saying there hasnt be a hard job in a few expansions

#

what was a hard job back then then?

drifting cloud
#

you cant turtle when youre already dead

sullen mountain
#

brackenspore was a hard job as mm

gaunt moat
#

for me, looking at a guy like that, is a major red flag, when i'm thinking about taking him to progression.

vestal wren
#

also ranged position usually tent to be more strategic planing

steep obsidian
#

umm i had to solo the downstairs on valiona on my own for 10 man heroic prog, that was sorta hard at least for me

lone junco
#

and ranged get the bitch jobs

#

for reasons

steep obsidian
#

back in cata

#

a mistake and you died

vestal wren
#

ranged gets bitch job because it is efficient to let a ranged do it

lone junco
#

orb catching on the CoF boss

#

indeed

vestal wren
#

its encounter design

lone junco
#

we had a melee imbalance then.

#

like 8 melee 4 range

#

was pretty rough

#

made tich easy

vestal wren
#

you take a ranged over a melee usually

sullen mountain
#

@gaunt moat unless you have a cornucopia of rogues to pick from with the same parses, yeah i agree

lone junco
#

"take"

gaunt moat
#

@sullen mountain also people like that tend to overvalue their skill

vestal wren
#

yes if you can change your raid comb dynamically you usually go ranged heavy

#

unless there is a encounter that benefits melee a lot

steep obsidian
#

more guldans pls

spare cloud
#

No point argueing

lone junco
#

we have a fixed mains roster for entire tiers.

spare cloud
#

nelbur is obviously the best rogue in the world

#

๐Ÿคท

lone junco
#

some times it sucks tbh.

vestal wren
#

e.g. helya was an example for a encounter design that is good for both

turbid harbor
#

hunters die all the time

lone junco
#

@spare cloud Nibren

turbid harbor
#

turtle doesn't save you

vestal wren
#

you still took rangeds > melees

lone junco
#

our hunters die a lot

turbid harbor
#

from damage that occurs every 30s

lone junco
#

enh dies

#

dh dies

spare cloud
#

@lone junco Can't tell if irony or for real

sullen mountain
#

they dont have very good defensives

drifting cloud
#

everyone knows the best rogue is yliajo

vestal wren
#

well those are the classes that have low survival tools

lone junco
#

not irony. but not 100% truthful

sullen mountain
#

enh doesnt either

spare cloud
#

Can make a point for every rogue that plays in method

turbid harbor
#

wait until you get to aggramar/argus

spare cloud
#

๐Ÿคท

turbid harbor
#

your hunter will be dead

#

for half the pulls

drifting cloud
#

wheres alaiz thesedays

lone junco
#

alaiz is dh

drifting cloud
#

oh ok

lone junco
#

bailed at the tier drop when sims showed Sin dumpster

vestal wren
#

DH masterrace

lone junco
#

then we got the boof

sullen mountain
#

fucking mongoloid spec

lone junco
#

meh

#

i dont mind simple.

spare cloud
#

๐Ÿคท

lone junco
#

i just dont want a lot of macros with stacked sills

#

and 89apm is dumb

sullen mountain
#

dont worry theyre getting rid of that for all classes in BFA

lone junco
#

hard pass on that shit

sullen mountain
#

assa is like 39 apm lol

#

ez

lone junco
#

hince

spare cloud
#

assa is like 40 apm atm as well

lone junco
#

I have to yell at people. no time to stare at my procs

spare cloud
#

I also like the

sullen mountain
#

jesus

lone junco
#

20 apm with top 3 single is fine by me

spare cloud
#

APM = complexity

#

by that logic dh is the most complex class

sullen mountain
#

im gonna be a pirate main bfa

lone junco
#

whackamole specs dont make me happy

vestal wren
#

dh has quite a huge apm

#

while beeing rly easy to play

lone junco
#

I did some Demonic dh. was ok.

#

at like 45crit it wasnt that bad

turbid harbor
#

i played it on tourney realm and had a lot of fun

#

eye beam spam ๐Ÿคค

lone junco
#

DH value for me is the mythic island tank flex.

#

and the controlled aoe for M+

sullen mountain
#

isnt poison bomb going to be a talent in bfa lol

lone junco
#

yeah,

strange python
#

confused why 970 haste mastery ring sims higher than 950 vers/mastery

lone junco
#

higher mastery?

#

haste isnt a 0

#

its just low.

sullen mountain
#

mastery heavy shit is real gud

spare cloud
#

I think longnoodle is a troll ๐Ÿคท

lone junco
#

haste is DEF a zero in M+ trash sims.

vestal wren
#

pb is a talent yes

manic vigil
#

Bfa will kill wow. You heard it here first. What a bold statement that has never been made before wooooow

lone junco
#

meh.

strange python
#

maybe vers isnt as high in my stat weights as i think it is

vestal wren
#

ppl assume wow dies for years now

lone junco
#

free me from this shit.

vestal wren
#

i doubt that

spare cloud
#

You know whats gonna die

sullen mountain
#

sea of theives is the real wow killer all the outlaw rogues stopped playing to play that

lone junco
#

@strange python Mastery crit, and crit mastery still bis.

spare cloud
#

we all are

#

in a few years

vestal wren
#

bfa however has not a great storry

manic vigil
#

Indeed toph

lone junco
#

i dont care for story, but I do like killing pirates

manic vigil
#

Also could you post the sign

vestal wren
#

or a theme that makes you "OHH I NEED TO PLAY THAT"

spare cloud
#

I think bfa is a filler expansion like wod was ๐Ÿคท

sullen mountain
#

bfa is quite lack luster from what ive seen

spare cloud
#

except for raids that is

manic vigil
#

Ok not sure fuu got it

lone junco
#

i loved HFC

sullen mountain
#

its Legion 2.0

spare cloud
#

HFC and BRF are my 2 favorite raids

#

they were amazing

vestal wren
#

hfc was rly good

lone junco
#

I liked a lot about Legion. Orange drop rate was shit. and destroyed relics were shit.

#

other than that. I liked a lot of it.

sullen mountain
#

theyre basically taking all the bad stuff from legion out and making the good stuff better for bfa

spare cloud
strange python
#

my various crit mastery 945ish rings dont even come close to the haste mastery

turbid harbor
#

while neutering all the classes

spare cloud
#

I think we're slowly approaching Xaethron levels.

lone junco
#

@strange python if you are in shoulders, that makse sense

sullen mountain
#

there is no super crazy new thing theyre doing like how artifact weapons or AP was

turbid harbor
#

should i know who xaethron is

lone junco
#

I hate quests. So I hope they take all that artifact line out

#

@turbid harbor nah

spare cloud
#

You shouldn't

gaunt moat
#

@turbid harbor better not

spare cloud
#

You're better off without knowing

turbid harbor
#

๐Ÿ˜„

#

ok

spare cloud
#

I wish I was in your shoes

#

sadly I got the full experience right after I joined

sullen mountain
#

i left this discord once i got my first 95% parse in NH as Assa

#

nothing else to learn /s

spare cloud
#

It's like riding a roller coaster after eating a whole lot

strange python
#

oh damn my crit weight is higher than mastery

spare cloud
#

95% parse = nothing else to learn

#

๐Ÿค”

#

If thats the case

#

I'm out, cya guys

#

thanks for having me

fast nacelle
#

u are finally gone?

lone junco
fast nacelle
#

bye

sullen mountain
#

so lets go back to this 2400 vs 95% discussion

#

it was just getting spciy

lone junco
#

As a raid leader. I have always found that high pvp players learn quickly.

#

Regarding fight mechanics and footwork.

sullen mountain
#

yeah and you usually have to know the spec really well anyways to pvp

#

so that translates well into raiding

lone junco
#

High warlord however. Not a good benchmark.

vestal wren
#

we had a gladi recrute

#

and he was rly bad

#

like the player you meme about in your raid

sullen mountain
#

well current gladiator is different than like 8 years ago glad

vestal wren
#

but refused to take any advice from any filthy pve plesent

#

so i dont value pvp payers high

#

its not personal but it has 0 connection to pve for me

#

so i seperate it, and see how the player peforms

shrewd night
#

'Scripted raid encounters are SO easy, thats why you should play against other players'

sullen mountain
#

LOL

#

i recently got into PVP in S5 Legion

vestal wren
#

its not unusual, a lot of pvp player look down on pve

sullen mountain
#

got 2k on a few different classes since

vestal wren
#

but fail horribly in it

sullen mountain
#

and it's really insane how much you can learn from pvp

steep obsidian
#

this chan is pretty easy to bait tbh

#

i dont use weak auras they make the game too ez

vestal wren
shrewd night
#

iLevel parses btw

sullen mountain
#

ive raided at a fairly high level since wrath as rogue

#

and rogue in

#

pvp is a whole different ball park than pve

#

the best pve rogues can be shit in pvp but a good pvp rogue can still do pve well

shrewd night
#

That goes both ways

#

Saying anything will be classified as bait

sullen mountain
#

thats only because gear plays a big part

turbid harbor
#

i watched pshero kill kj heroic 2nd or 3rd week the content was out

sullen mountain
#

you dont need 95% mastery and crit cut offs for pvp

turbid harbor
#

used his pvp talents

#

played like garbage

#

i don't think it makes much sense to compare

sullen mountain
#

streamers dont really apply

shrewd night
sullen mountain
#

they can get carried by the community

placid egret
#

Xd

sullen mountain
#

anyone playing like shit on heroic kj isnt going to kill it

#

especially if they fuck up the mechanics

#

even more so that early in the tier

#

OK this conversation isnt going much of anywhere if no one has actually pvpd competitvely before

#

but ill end it on this

#

people who get high rated as a class are more adaptable

turbid harbor
#

he literally stood next to the boss, did 0 mechanics and did shit dps

#

and he killed it

zealous dew
#

what did I miss ?

vestal wren
#

i dont like pvp discussions

#

it usually ends in toxicity

steep obsidian
#

yeah there are very very few people who have raided AND pvped at a very high level in the same expac

stark heart
steep obsidian
#

I'd be more inclined to listen to what they say then us jus spouting crap in here

turbid harbor
#

bearing in mind this is when sub was godlike

steep obsidian
#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

vestal wren
#

there are many players from top guilds doing pvp

turbid harbor
#

he was playing vigor instead of ds

shrewd night
#

'PVPers can be great PVEers, but it doesnt work the other way around ever' if you come in here spouting that kind of crap you get a surprisingly low amount of people willing to discuss omegaLUL

turbid harbor
#

it's just a time investment

#

he clearly had not invested time into being better at pve

#

just like i cba running around in arena

sullen mountain
#

im done with the conversation relaly its not worth it but give PVP a shot if you want to learn something new and challenging

vestal wren
#

totally wrong

#

pve carried a lot of pvp in earlier xpacks

#

it works both ways but beeing good at one does not mean beeing good at both

strange python
#

๐Ÿ

sullen mountain
#

ive invested a lot into both i know what im talking about

shrewd night
#

๐Ÿค”

strange python
#

you can be good at both, no one said otherwise

#

but. correlation does not imply causation and all that.

fiery nest
#

5/11m lol

strange python
#

also, that's a funky way to spell rogue

turbid harbor
#

why would you link terrible uh logs in a rogue discord?

sullen mountain
#

for the sake of the argument

#

i quit doing mythic awhile back

shrewd night
#

Oh

#

So you defeated your own argument then?

vestal wren
#

your pvp rating is also not that good

fiery nest
#

Because you got to bosses that require a brain

strange python
#

he doesn't have to be 11/11m to have good logs

sullen mountain
#

no it isnt

vestal wren
#

so you want to say you suck at both equaly?

sullen mountain
#

ive never once claimed to be a god at either

#

but im no fucking casual either

vestal wren
#

i dont get the argument then

shrewd night
#

Longnoodle - Today at 6:52 PM
ive invested a lot into both i know what im talking about

i only brought up the conversation in the event of a current season 2400 with low gear vs a guy with 95% parses from say the tier before

#

i would take the 2400

#

thats it

fiery nest
#

Neat

vestal wren
#

i would take the 95%

placid egret
#

But why though?

wise frigate
#

^

vestal wren
#

as he has experience on the fights and good parses

#

while the other one has a high pvp rating

sullen mountain
#

95% from long ago

placid egret
#

If you take a 940 2400 over a 95% parser with 970 you might have brain damage.

sullen mountain
#

say were walking into BFA

#

2400 S7 rogue

#

vs 95% parse Antorus 8/11M

fervent beacon

8/11M

sullen mountain

its average

thats why i didnt say R1 vs 11/11

#

I've seen a 7200 monk rolling into other packs in hov while stunning the whole party with thunderstrike

#

so no pvpers kk thx

vestal wren
#

did you see the 3 monk combo in pvp?

sullen mountain
#

yup

strange python
#

7200 you say

vestal wren
#

sth like that should not exist

sullen mountain
#

no it shouldnt

zealous dew
#

(sarcasm)

sullen mountain
#

and neither should tanks in pvp

#

but thats an entire differen discussion

#

pvp will never be balanced beacuse this isnt a pvp focused game

#

thats why there arent real rewards for 2s

#

because its fucked

#

its more fucked than 3s or rbgs thats for god damn sure

vestal wren
#

you cant gadi in 2o2 due to a reason

#

(since wotlk)

sullen mountain
#

i really shouldnt of even brought this up

vestal wren
#

all fine ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

sullen mountain
#

its insanity to argue about pvp with people who almost exclusively pve

vestal wren
#

i played pvp up to ~2.1k in wotlk

fervent beacon
#

Goes the same for other way around.

sullen mountain
#

i dont exclusively do either

#

i do both about equally

placid egret
#

It doesn't seem like you pve at all

fervent beacon
#

Nutshell, you don't have a life.

vestal wren
#

i sold my account after wotlk and started again in end wod

placid egret
#

You did mythic prog for 4 weeks and quit.

sullen mountain
#

yeah thats because the majority of my friends dont want to mythic

strange python
#

Because pve means mythic only right

vestal wren
#

well depends on how competitve you think

sullen mountain
#

i still do tons of M+ on all my chars and clear heroic

#

ive never even pvpd until Legion S5 lol

#

until then i was exclusively pve

fervent beacon
#

PvP in legion

sullen mountain
#

well i would mythic raid more but when i did this tier it was literally just waiting on 20 retards to not fuck up on one pull

vestal wren
#

they try to improve pvp as it seems in bfa

sullen mountain
#

not worth my time

vestal wren
#

so hopes up for the small pvp crowd

fervent beacon
#

Not our fault that you raid with morons.

sullen mountain
#

gotta get kills to get into better guilds

that was my plan in that 4 weeks i did

if you are on a big server, go to a better guild if you want to pve

Put up to 3 ruptures out but only if shit will last long enough to get some value @night vale

night vale

@lost horizon thanks, worth running moonglaives in places of EoC for trash?

lost horizon
#

Often you'll only really have one on a big target

strange python
#

sorry i meant the raid altgoether

#

not the boss ๐Ÿ˜„

lost horizon
#

Yes glaives are good, but if you want to minmax you should swap trinkets while it's on CD

#

It has a 30sec forced CD when you equip it anyway, so plan around that

nocturne gate
lost horizon
#

?

nocturne gate
#

aoe green logs st purple

lost horizon
#

Honestly we're pretty solid with AoE, back in NH sure

nocturne gate
#

not with burst aoe

lost horizon
#

But parses only compare you within your spec so, just work on improving AoE

#

Burst AoE is shitty without good procs sure, but you can sub in glaives to help out

nocturne gate
#

i know i consider to learn sub(but i hate it)

lost horizon
#

Nah I mean you can work to do better with AoE as sin too

lone junco
#

@night vale for Sin M+ i have 2 gear sets. One traditional boss damage, one fat mastery. You can sim 8 or 10 bosses patchwerk 20 sec. and see what that looks like for stat weights.

Its like 160 mastery 120 agi 120 vers 100 crit 6 haste.

#

basically it just prioitizes mastery for shoulder bombs

lost horizon
#

You run exsang in M+ too though don't you? @lone junco

lone junco
#

i do for upper

lost horizon
#

Honestly phat mastery is probably your regular gearset with poison

lone junco
#

anything teeming or fort is either sub or poison.

night vale
#

@lone junco ty man ๐Ÿ˜„ i only have 1 gear set and its fat mastery, im just gonna use moonglaives on trash

lone junco
#

my best shoulder poison is like 33/175 my m+ trash is like 26/200

but they dont do anything for shoulder bombs

i have 27/206 atm

#

Me 30/205

With eoc.

lone junco

but the 20 and 40sec sims really have me depressed with sin output. So im not really trying to compete

lost horizon
#

30/205 with EOC is pretty sweet

lone junco
#

arcane is in the 30m range.

lost horizon
#

Or is that counting full EOC stacks?

lone junco
#

I really do prefer the prio target dmg on fort trash.

strange python
#

No so it's really 35 or so

lost horizon
#

@lone junco sin does okay though cause it's not relying on any CDs

strange python
#

Yeah I got p lucky, can barely scrape a 2.2 sim though

lone junco
#

i wish i could run 7pk 7malch for m+

lost horizon
#

Def won't compete overall without luck unless the high bursty players are bad

#

@strange python for real? Do you just have a lot of haste/low vers too?

lone junco
#

I do the big rock guys, or pelters or bosses. let the cleavers cleave

#

2.2 would be good for 965 range.

strange python
#

971 ><

lone junco

my poison is 962-964 and i got stuck at 2.075 ish.

Eh I'm not too far ahead and I'm like 976

lone junco

doesnt beat my exang. but prob done for the tier

@indigo idol he is bracer insig. with crit buff it is a substantial up time on EP very different than your shoulder bracer

can see that in the avg rupture values

When you use KB. Do you spam envenoms or do you just wait til it falls off before putting another

I dunno. they arent close enough spec/gear for me to do in a few sec

In a standard fight. EP insig and Bracers can be about the same value

strange python

yeah thats the bracer insig build. Lots of crit and elaborate planning uptime
