and technically heroic argus R1 log on release of antorus but thats barely relevant anyway
Well most guilds dont log in those cases
heroic week 1 ?
There are multiple rank ones at that time often
I try to be as consistent as possible
Having 90% median average is better than one 99 to me
yea thats true as well. Having a 10 green logs with 1 orange somewhere in between means you got probably just lucky and you arenet actually good
No what i mean is like
For example i came back when my guild killed argus
I was on a break
So my firsr logs were grey
Because i was 25 ilvls below everyone
oh yea, obviously thats why you look on item level if u judging the log right
item level parses are not relevant but its obvious that if someone is 940 they aint gonna parse orange
and grey / green is to be expected
yea lmao I saw dudes taking off their lowest piece of gear just to get ilvl down
For example
and then jerk it for 100% ilvl parse
was in a guild with a player like that
annoying as fuck
@gusty kestrel shorter than Iโd hoped
high command has the risk of getting fucked by the stuns as well ๐
you can somewhat mitigate that unluck with dispersion, but not too often
sure, but having the freedom to disperse at 10 insanity and having the spirits take you back up to 100 would be really nice if you werenโt forced to save it because of the fightโs mechanics
True
Its stupid
๐คท things have gone mad these days
that's what happens when you surrender 2 madness
[Insignia of the Grand Army] or [Insignia of Ravenholdt] or `[Cinidaria, the Symbiote] with the shoulder sorry if its not the right place to ask
sim it
@latent drum you best simulate that using the gear compare option on raidbots.com - you need to import your data by inputting the /simc information you get with the ingame simulationcraft addon.
pawn, crucibleweight and herodamage.com can help with a basic overview, if you want to minmax you always need to simulate it for your own toon
will do ty โค
You are
The mobile release?
who isn't excited for BfA?

gon lose new spells poggers
i honestyl would prefer a small raid before bfa ๐ฆ
rofl
wut
its been happening since inception of wod
but now thankfully even dragonslayers have realised that this is not sustainable
lol
prunin'
let's scale everybody back to one button that does everything
no resources
keep existing talents
and then add/remove everything via RNG gear each xpac
sound good?
Imagine:
"Stab" 40 energy. Applies Envenom, rupture, lethal poison, exanguinate, TB, etc etc etc
full duration ofc
got to be console ready though
"Nice stab"
Talent 15:
Nice Stab: You gain 20% leech after stabbing
Fast Stab: Your stabs cost half but do half damage
Reverse Stab: You stab yourself causing a rush of adrenaline. +5000% damage for 20s then you die. Horribly.
I could be class dev tbh
I could be...Ion

@neat olive idk what Richard is talking about, you do cloak flame rends, it does negate raid damage. You can take almost all flame rends like that throughout the fight, there are 2 that you cant. One of them you can soak with feint and cheat death. The last one you just dont soak. Hope that helps
Difficulty wasnt specified in the original context. At this point in the expansion you shouldnt need to double soak.
Ion Josekostas
If you need to double soak for your raid to survive, the rogue isnt the issue.
We still double soak with 4 rogues in group
๐คท
but on most combos you can cloak the big aoe and still cloak the flame rend that comes after
Having 1 rogue double soak shouldnt be the difference between wipe or not
Its not about that, its just to help tour healers even if its a small thing
Yes but would you not agree
That if possible
Its better to use on ST
For DPS uptime
That is my point.
Id rather help the raid than whore
Is it worth to use toxic blade on cd and let kingsbane wait for tb to come up again?
Ude CDs on cd
whoring is helping the raid kill the boss faster
You can set up all kinds of scenarios where people fail to soak or maybe 1 or 2 people are in danger of dying and you soaking will help
Even if Those situations are the exception rather than the norm, i would prefer that over getting 50 more dps
Im not saying it has no benefits, im saying i'd rather use for ST if its an option for dps uptime.
50k
random number is random
And im the opposite, good discussion
Like I said, personal preferences ๐คท
so boring, nothing to do, -2h to go home
someone please share a log to throw shit on
anyone know any good WA's for tracking all group int's for m+
oh cheers, didnt realise it could do that thanks!
I set a column for each. above my dps meter
@bright vortex
heacds / defensives/ stuns/kicks /res
any good exhang indepth guide?
prob.
also, with high crit, you mut at 2t then fok at 3t
Ive written a tldr guide before. just cant find it.
exang build sims for 2.25kk hefty 50k above my regular poison build. so eager to try it.
Bracer/Boot. 2p4p 3vendetta 45+ crit. Ep/NS/DS/exang
the vanish rupture is 6 cp. env is 4cp+ and you will crit a lot so you get 3 or 4 very easily.
@dire spoke looks familiar ๐
:p
ty gona try it
the best English speaking exanger is prob this guy. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/eu/stormreaver/slackjack
we play a little diff. but its a very smooth rotation once you have decent crit.
bb relics help
he is mystic
mystic waidar
@exotic glen welcome back 
thanks
Guys quick question, ive seen multiple sources say different things, is master alc or master assasin best?
i only have leggoboots, no shoulder or bracer
Both is nice.
use this site giffeswe https://www.herodamage.com/rogue/
Class theorycrafting community, latest simulation results and resources -based on SimulationCraft- for World of Warcraft.
Infusion of light -> master assasin Murderous intent -> master alc
ty argonic ill check it
under relics you can choose your build and then look at how they stack up
that site is way to laggy for my work laptop, can you pm me so i can check it when im home?
(cant use adblock at work)
The other option I use is raidbots dot com relic compar.
!rota
i guess ill wait untill i get home ๐ thank you for answering
i dont think its possible to only see for one lego but for boots + bracers it looks like this
well icyveins says that 1st and 3rd relic assasin is good, but on 2nd relic assasin is bad, why is that?
Doesn't line up CDs well
ok so you only want assasin 2 times?
its got to do with timings of your cooldowns yeah
you want either 3 or 1
having 2 is "bad"
You ideally want 1 or 3 but its whatever for me
but i have boots so vendetta is inconsiten anyway, no?
its not RNG, therefore not inconsistent
oh right
its really consistent if you can just stick to the boss
true
Boots/Bracers are going to be a strong choice for progression, remember that.
well i guess im going with murderous intent and master alc then
new exp out in 2months anyway'
ye but i wanna get my rogue into cutting edge before then ๐
do you want a picture of the netherlight crucible traits as well giffeswe?
if you dont mind, i love reading when im on the shitter ๐
๐ ๐ฏ ty
shocking
2 MA isnt bad with boots is it?
pretty sure its only with shoulders and not boots
you can see how much of a gain it is in the picture i linked with boots
its a 0,57% increase it says
also you mean bracers + shoulders
well it could also be insignia
cloak is bis
2ma is not bad with shoulders as well, it's just 5 min sims tringy
yeah I think monk has the same thing with 1 sef
in reality its garbage but in 5min exactly it sims ok because sef is what 1:15 cd?
It just delays the vanish compared to the other conditions.
That fits
idk ill just keep it like this


Hi guys, I have a specific question regarding my Mythic Eonar as Assassin rogue.
Based on these logs: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/DFWNz7jk9hnQZ4TL/ What the hell am I doing wrong? My parse/DPS is so low!
eonar is a shit boss, thats what
as long as you are constantly attacking something and using cooldowns, and doing the ship, theres not much else to do
worrying about eonar parse ๐
you should probably press envenom instead of rupturing every single add
seems you are doing more things right than your padding melee buddies ijs
yeah no reason to pad as assassination on eonar
no reason do do anything on eonar
like you have 3 locks between them they can solo bats and any stray packs lol I dunno why there's so much aoe dmg by everyone and probably doing it for the sake of looking good
garb boss, no all star points
still, you cant expect to do dps if you use dots on adds that die in like 1 second
How's spec lookin in bfa?
looks the same pretty much
can someone explain is depth the cd alignment with 1 and 3 vs 2 MAs?
@royal halo - you should tell your raid lead or whoevers in charge by looking at the amount of add dmg it's actually not good that adds go down so quick due to eonar's energy - and if you really wanna parse equip some aoe things or play sub lol. Your main role here is basically to top dmg on destructors/purifiers/obfuscators
i've never had 3 MA so idk but with 1 MA your vendetta lines up with TB every time pretty much perfectly
if you play mantle 2MAss gains no real benefit as CDs don't line up
if you don't play mantle then it's a gain
if you play mantle, which cds align with 3 MAs then?
It's the delay of vanish
you'll have an extra use of vendetta without delaying for vanish
And vend
Shoulder and wrists, 3 MA. You dont need to hold vanish very long for vendetta
I see
Some fights it gives just enough time to squeeze in a vendetta vanish 3rd time at the end of a fight
hey guys whats the best spec to lvl up for BFA?
restoration
thx
np I got you fam
fuck me, bfa questions are probably the worst thing ever
i'd rather have stat weight questions
thanks btw guys.
anytime dude
whats the best class in BfA?
probably bard
No joke, Dark Ranger will prob be the next class
Kind of pretty much like rogue except ranged.
Monk = rogue that can tank and heal
DH = Rogue with more mobility
demonology is looking dope
ranged sin? blow darts new combo builder then renamed to witch doctor
the replaced by necromancer
If rogue had a new spec, it would be cool to have a gunslinger spec.
5 years later
lol
but hey this is all #off-topic ty
Or fucking replace Outlaw with gunslinger.
can you come up with an ability or synergy between abilities that would make a range outlaw work?
right now between the eyes and pistol shot is all they have, i cant come up with any idea to further build upon this
Gunslinger would be sweet. Just need trenchcoat xmogs so I can look like Roland
regarding exang build. do i care how many seconds my rupture and garrote have before i apply exang?
Yes absolutely
You should apply a max CP+max pandemic rupture right before exsang
Ideally with a garrote application (max pandemic) as well
my max rupture is 36 seconds. so i need to aim this number before applying exang?
and do i wait til garote wears off after exang. or i can reaaply right after exang usage
and rupture
the meaning - do these dots somehow buffed or
if you reapply dots, it will remove your exsanguinate on the dot
so you wait until that dot runs out of duration
i thouhgt exang instant. coz it reduce instantly dot duration. thought it was doing it damage and thats it.
ok then,.
it reduced the dot duration but makes it do the same amount of damage as the full dot
if that makes more sense to you
ye tnx
and what about kingsbane
how its playing around exang?
or just press on cd
is the sin wowanalyzer still being worked on or?
the site itself says its out of date but who knows
@gusty kestrel smh
its good for big issues and seeing uptimes at a glance (trinket values as well) but to get really in depth its best to post the log here
was wondering about something, tok a check on the logs. Which relic would you recommend for raiding? seems like alot of players cheesing with fan of knives on logs
Master alchemist + fan of knives
Relics results of the Tier 21 Single Target simulations for the Rogue Assassination.
That fok stuff was a bug from a few months ago
i know, but if you look on logs, bosses with 2+ they spam fan of knives
uhhuh
you dont need specific relics to do that, and its not cheesing
And if you look on herodamage, fan of knives relic spikes huge on +2 fights
If you see logs where the top handful are astronomically higher than others, it's a high ass guild cheesing for logs. Ignore those
Twice of the damage compaired to master alchemist
Relics results of the Tier 21 Dual Target simulations for the Rogue Assassination.
Garothi, kin, imonar, argus, agg, vari all mainly ST
that doesnt mean you should go for those relics
you will be useless on half the bosses
A lot of people cant stack dogs, so that becomes ST
Sin is a single target spec, as Argonic said you'll cripple yourself on most bosses to maybe squeeze out a bit on an aoe fight
Aoe fights where other classes crush us
Reroll lock/sp ๐
Just feels like i cant compete with any classes, not best class on ST or AoE
you're close to best class on ST so
You shouldn't have issue in ST
Garrothi, ench/war/windwalker
And sin rogue
15 place, down 600k dps
With good PB rng I can top those specs in most ST argue fights
thats good RnG ^^
so are they
as the rank 8 on felhounds being assasin rogue ๐ fan of knives ofc
Good not godly. Sin rogue with close to same gear did 50million more PB damage one kill on heroic last night
because they can stack the dogs, which is not normal
And I did more overall
are you even listening
Sin is a top end single target without pb luck. With PB you can top things easily
First rogue 269spot
sounds like you should reroll to something other than rogue
i literally have rank 2 on varimathras, do you think i got that using poison knives relics?
hey guys is there someone who can help me with some tips for sin... i ll send him a full hc log just to check my problems on rotation etc
just link them here leia
mained rogue since vanilla ๐
If you dont enjoy rogue, reroll. But dont come here claiming its because rogue is terrible, when its likely down to you not playing correctly.
Rogue is the funniest class
Never said they are terrible, just they are not in the greatest spot DPS wise
are we looking at you leia?
"We" :3
yes please
do you usually play sub?
yeah i play sub for 9 months and i switched sin for helping me at progress
sub is perfectly viable for mythic progression if you feel more comfortable in that spec
yeah i know but i want to learn sin too ๐
but if you want to play sin, switch out your vers with mastery first
The vers curse. I'm at 17% and I cant come close to 200 mastery
how did you envenom twice in a row ๐ค
lol dont know
Miss?
like tier 21 4 set from sub ๐
initial impression is that you need to use your gcds faster, you didnt attack on 0, you probably wasted your shoulders window as well
Watch bleed timers, the heroic vari was not so good
if i compare you to my log, we cast the same spells and i use vanish on 6.5 seconds into the fight and you use it on like 10 seconds
you will be overcapped on energy as well
also, your first vanish wasnt good, you kept using 2 mutilates to get 5 CPs before envenom, just go with 4 in the shoulders window
i think garothi was my best try
so if y want you can check my mistakes from there
it was the best i could do
sure, you just linked to dogs making me think you wanted that one analysed
oh ok you actually just fucked it on dogs
this fight is looking a lot smoother
you should use potions of prolonged power btw
you refreshed your rupture about every 10 seconds, which is just dumb, you are wasting your combo points
i know this run was only a train for learning sin
on how many secs do i need to refresh it?
Do you have a weak aura or anything for bleeds?
iirc 7.4 is the start of the pandemic window for 5CP ruptures
yes i just need to fix them better with timers too ๐
Garrote is... under 5 seconds for pandemic?
uh
think that is like 4.2 or something close to that
you straight up missed a cast of toxic blade between your first one and second one
which you do again after your 2nd cast
I checked guide said 5-6 on garrote
yeah dont know the timers of my spells yet very well
oh i see, my bad
you're holding toxic blade for kingsbanes end right
dont do that, just use cds on cd
its an either-or situation
if your cooldowns happen to line up like that, do it, but they wont do that often so
there's a nice weakaura package for sin that will glow the boarders on your bleeds when you're in pandemic window
makes it pretty hard to fuck it up
mine turn green
I just try to remember lol
anything bad with my BoT?
trying ti remember wtf BoT is
Me too
bot means nothing for piooson build
bag of tricks
if ur refering to blood
just pray to RNGesus
i mean poison bombs
pbs are rng
hahahaha
you need to stack this thing somehow?
if it stacks one then y can keep it?
flat % chance per combo point spent
for every combo point you spend, you have a higher chance to proc it
hmmmm
If you had 7% damage from poison bomb that is about average
so do i have still a lot of problems? Cuz i want to go for mythic with sin sometime ๐
do i need more dummy practice?
Having high bleed uptimes will help a lot. So will using abilities on CD and proper vanish vendetta windows
Doesnt seem like anything really bad from a quick skim
also change vers for mastery
i can sum it up if you want
i have 187% mast and 17% vers
What ilvl
967 equipped
18% vers
get more mastery, use potions of prolonged power, dont hold cooldowns (except vanish. vanish always goes together with vendetta and toxic blade), more dot uptimes yet dont spam them outside the pandemic window
perfect man... i can live with these problems ๐ ๐
looking my dmg thought that i was far away from a good rotation ๐
The fact you are getting specific answers bodes well. Some logs you look and it hurts your eyes, the answer becomes read the guide and learn the class
!singuide
Assassination guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
also helps that you said you already read the guides
Good idea to ease into it. I got the beacon trinket off high command and wanted to try it with sub after not raiding as sub since tos
Needless to say I had a very very low parse
leia if you want you can upload a log of you hitting a dummy
that trinket is bad tho ๐
the rotation is the same
Wanted to try it out, our warrior does insane damage with it
cuz im knew at wow (one year almost) i tried to make logs at dummies but it didnt write them at my disc ๐
which trinket off high command?
lmao you serious
The ship dies
ship will just kill itself
Do you have to run out and in for it to work?
Or when you're running to it between phases
Gotta combine with shoulders for auto crit
Stupid leap
I had about 2 minutes to figure it out and failed miserably
I'll go mess around in some shitty lfr lol
Damn thing is higher than my actual melee trinkets
be goblin, rocket jump out, pop it, and step back in
Something something big tiddy goth GF....
๐
Is there a sweet spot for Mastery ? I could equip a set with 28Crit/9Haste/10Vers/175 Mastery/41k Agi but Raidbots recommends a set with 30Crit/9Haste/10Vers/152Mastery/44k Agi does 3k Agi really make up 25% Mastery ?
no sweet spot known at least
There are def balances.
I find that the more mastery you obtain, the more you want ๐
just listen to raidbots
very not true
simit
sim yo self
its the most accurate way to find out
sim your stat weights
^^^^
0c 250m is not a sloution.

^
at least by my sims, just never stops increasing
As I said, I sim it myself and the Sim is telling me to drop 25% mastery for 3k Agi gain
probably low ilvl
but are you doing the "top gear" on raidbots?
The set with 152% Mastery has 939 iLvl the other has 942ilvl
Drop a raw mastery trinket for 5k agi.
yes top gear
seems irrelevant. prob less than 0.5% diff
2% difference
top gear is a good tool. It uses trinkets where weights do not.
then believe it. and carry on.
4p21 is biggest upgrade. then shoulder/bracer or bracer/boot combos. then the crit/mastery relationship those prefer.
if you dont have 4p21 or either of those combos. dont expect miracles.
I am not expecting miracles, it just confused me because I thought Mastery was most important
that doesnt mean everything else isnt important
weight relationships are important.
you are probably seeing 32m 29agi 27crit 25 vers 18h
or something
it all changes with gear and ilv

ty for showing that i was scrolling for it earlier couldnt find it\
subterfuge with 2p4p and ns with 4p + mantle feels gucci
2p4p dream.
I ran some shoulder bracer in LFR and it was ok, but timing issues made me furious. So 2p4pexang. :$$$$$:
dead tier tho. we stopped raiding in feb. so I just jump around dalaran.
What timing didnt you like? Or is that bleed build shoulder bracer
Shoulder Bracer poison.
oh just the vendetta vanish timing for after second hands on garothi.
Theres only a few fights now I can get 3 vanishes in
Nothing feels worse than waiting on those last few seconds as the boss is in single digit %
You want to get someone killed or something to prolong until you can get the last combo in
mfw high command you get another phase
but your vanish comes up too late and boss dies after first adds
as sub
rip glaive trinket rip vanish
@lean hill thats the thing with exang. every 45sec is a strong peak. not as good as every 2min with shoulder, but you always get a few more good ones in.
"not as good as every 2 min with shoulder" ๐ค
I've been trying to get a decent set for bleed but all my stuff is vers
vanish mantle without pb doesnt feel that great
while exsa with bota
is more likely to happen
Anyone know why sometimes I'm not getting an empowered envenom from nightstalker?
Occasionally my first hit is several mil less than it should be
idk if they fixed it but if you cast vanish + X too quickly it can happen that it wont buff it
I look forward to the prepatch hasted bota
Hmm. Could be. I thought something was doing damage and using up NS but I never actually looked back in logs to see
I keep getting the mutilate with shoulders for 3 CP too, so annoying
with alacrity and a sephuz kick I got to 119%haste
exang doesnt care. and env on 3 is a wash.
but with high crit you dont get a lot of 2s anyway
are you sure you aren't getting parried on the pull or something?
yeah. I got a boner for crit back on KJ and started collecting.
dacx its because the boss is parrying one of your attacks
for your 3cp vanish mut things
if you get just 3 cp muts in mantle its cause you stand in front of the boss
^
or you fight elisande which also dodges everything from behind
Oh that could be it. I'll watch positioning and see if it fixes
gurantee you thatsit
I want to say it is all on farm content where I dont give much of a shit now
Would make sense I ended up in front of a boss
i find its only an issue when the tank moves like an idiot
like spins it in cirlces or random directions
have you done freehold noobe?
bfa 5man?
yeh
can confirm noobe forgot my name after we had sex

@fast nacelle new discord who dis
excuse me
boots/wrist https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/wkHLcox4szbTrCLScbTZD - wrist/insignia ring https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/3vNvf72Cev4zLXNUoghjd6 - manlte/wrist https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/7J1asMDqwW2CnUKXZV8k9y with dps this close i mine as well play mantle wrist since i like rotation better right ?
@fast nacelle i have that every week on kingaroth, when we have 2 fury warriors executing the boss
and i'm saving all my shit
hoping that we get next add phase
PepeHands
@lone junco me no understand "new discord who dis"
no toxicando tyra
what happened to the hot grill in your avatar, tyra? not cool
+so run mantle ?
mantle/wrists have the highest variance though
since poison bomb swings it more depending on if it procs in mantle
i just dont see any 1 else running wrist with insignia ring
here;s the thing. ready?
but wrist insignia is simming highest for me because i have the 985 shoulders prolly
anything less than 0.5% is in margins of error.
If you cannot play it, and match sim, that margin doesnt matter.
Some fights work better for one over the other.
what fight is that
coven mythic
idk it doesnt make sense
and BIGLY. the last
the max fight parses are very very high on the bell curve of probabilities.
i dont think anyone plays bracer insig
beside me ๐ฆ
often im sure i would have done more dmg with MP and boots+bracer
tom is a BM hunter now
i thought about rerolling too
and did you talk with Pikaboo or just a memefan?
like DH
@lone junco my crit is 38 with wrist ring
maybe demo WL
I've given a thought about MM
yeah ๐
Implosion
2,7 for like rank 10 as assa
people keep talking about some pvper named pikaboo but i dont even kno who he is lol/ i made this name as a twink and left it level 19 since bc. i just boosted it this expansion
dfa sucked anyway
i loved dfa for sub
but the idea of dfa + symbols was good
@honest needle just play what you do well with. and keep a few pawn strings. play what you do best at. sims are tools
i mean they're just gonna replace dfa by something that is dfa without the animation though
right?
Jumping through the roof in lower K? bad
yea most likely
Gorestab
only upside of dfa was
it was fun to outplay some mechanics
that you could shd b4 evi hit
but then you were omegacucked in some situations
KJ knockback. was fun
@lone junco also wat legos do u run for aoe fights like high command and portal and eonar
idk it had both ends to it imo
dfa gave same good stuff
shoulder/bracer MP/vig/tb
but also bad stuff
yep
I feel like we're gonna get shadow reflection back though
so fuck dfa
I would be ok if it had a ghost do the movment.
so on high command u pretty much fan of knives the whole time right
like the DH red blade dash
fan on 2+ targets
do u put ruptures on all 3 adds or just spam boss ?
like kamehameha
on high comamnd ?
@honest needle you can. I play exang ep. I rupture a few things. and fok all.
nah rogues have to lose control of their character that the way things work
mythic
and you fire a fel bolt
like killing spree
adds usually dont live long enough to rupture them tbh
actually you know what would be sick
well in mythic they last long enough i think after the first opener
shadow reflection was so fun in pvp lol! SR full kidney into garrote and SR followed up the CC which resulted in insane lockouts
like mmythic high commands i feel the adss are up long enough for ruptures
depends on your group
you only need rupture on the boss tbh,
i d dig for a spell what works like moonglaives. like you channel like fist of fury and in the end you smash out an evi
but if you are having energy probs you can rupture a nearby
and you can use shd while channeling
but its all in the fokking
and while channeling you do dmg around your pussy
dayum
Mosh is not horrible
i dont like extang lol
it plays the same as bracer boot 2p4p.
prolly cause i dont rememeber the rotation for ity
just do what you play best at
ep is easy.
it will change your weights to need higher crit.
prob has a higher cap than shoulder bracer.
@lone junco this is the final sim with ep wrist insignia https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/cnSCuoUDJGCM2n96cKrfD
so im guessing mp is better
for me
thats your highest sim i think.
you wont beat that 980 argus tho
i think its whats holding me backl
its whats going to keep you MP for sure.
nice box loot or are you argus M asking a heroic scrub questions
whats the 980 argus ring i got ?
im 8/11 mythic between my rogue and my druid
this is my first expansion ever raiding with a rogue
Im trying to get better
im parsing 80/90s but i really want to do 99
and im trying to figure out how to do it
gear and cheese
99 at this point means you have to have prety damn good rng and yeah be allowed to cheese
do u guys use kingsbane at low combo points or do u guys use it after and envenom to do it then do another envenom
and also have a good fight time
cheese = stat pad?
cheese = say hey let me solo these adds
cheese = bad raid and/or pb rng on aoe fights and pb rng at st fights
back when i raided 10 years ago, cheese was basically padding meters = aoeing adds ๐
combined with a decent killtime - w/e this means depends on fight
where is your T21 chest, and high Mastery/crit off glove.
well if you kill the boss fight after you go through a vendetta vanish cycle
is what i meant
and 7/7 Malch is big for the MP builds.
or just stupid fast kill time
we used to have mechanics like power infusion, rogue tricks, unholy dk frenzy i believe
that could boost a player artificially
@gusty kestrel nice boss
Is CT bugged on beta? it displayed two debuffs on the target after using it twice
Have they nerfed the hit component yet?
no
Are you plan to main sin or keeping an eye on outlaw
I don't mind 36apm tbh. So hope si stays strong.
depends on tuning
rn there is no reason to play outlaw
CT keeps up with outlaw AoE
and outlaw AoE is tied to 2min CD on KS
and charge system
Def more to keep an eye on especially if no gain.
Will be nice for sin to utilize all 4 2ndary.
CT pretty sick dmg then?
Better than Pbomb in Beta atm?
I didn't know if since it was slower it would kind of suck.
Haven't played the beta too much.
It's good to hear that Crimson is good.
Does CT procc venomous wounds?
which bosses were tested today? i missed it
Any tips on not starving yourself on energy?
spam less i guess
I was wondering why my damage was so low and I thought it was because I was capping my self real bad
turns out
didnt have my posion on
well at least you know now how it feels to play in BFA
hahaha
But it's only a 1.1k DPS loss.
^10/10 meme
Any good rogues streaming PvE content like mythic+ etc? Can't seem to find any on twitch
I often see a rogue playing with jdot or what his name is and would love to see m+ from a rogue perspective. But it was apparently very rude to ask in his chat.
just did a normal dungeon as sin on beta at level 120. I like the damage, but I hate the low crit :(. But i'm sure things will smooth out a bit as I get more gear.
Poison bomb also seems kind of week. I know it's suppose to be an aoe tier of talents but I wonder which will be picked for ST anyway
@fleet whale PB is horrible, take Crimson Tempest
I'm so glad crimson tempest is back. It used to be stock abilties.
would be nice if venomous vim would work with crimson tempest :3
why does cloak not work on focused lightning :/
quick question can shadowstep kill someone on coven by going through them?
Correct, Shadowstep doesn't move the character through the space you are traveling.
NO TOUCHING on Coven though.
BAD!!
Expansion Prepatch is basically the expansion launch but without the content/quests/etc.
There's usually quests that go along with the prepatch.
Who knows, still no extension on the Silithus quests =\
There's nothing there really.
Feels a lot like one of those old Vanilla quests that just end, but there seems to be more story to tell.
Isn't the Silithus extension meant to come with the prepatch?
With all the bits about depowering the artifact.
Yeah but I think people are assuming that the corruption/depowering would take some time.
Like we'd get to play with the weapons for a bit more before noticing the weirdness.
I mean. We... sort of do?
In that we keep them up until the expac hits.
Which'll be a month give or take.
But yeah. I get you.


Also the code for that is awful > _<



1 Century old bunny.

Mastery has no cap.
what about crit?
Why is that always a question
Other classes have "caps" for how high you wanna go before priority shifts elsewhere.
So it's not entirely bizarre that it comes up here.
discussion on rogue races (alliance) ?
I can see dwarf still leading as #1 dps but its only within like 1% difference really
Just be what you would like to stare at for rest of your game
Dark Iron es numba 1
Yes
its 2% crit damage
and with sin T21 favoring crit more than ever, its an increase damage overall
human simply for the increase stats with secondary stats
So its just depends if you want to be ugly male dwarf or the alpha brave dwarf female
I love my male dwarf purely cause his name is Mcbeard.
And he ofc has a big bushy beard.
@untold crater keep in mind the racial DPS boost is very very very very very minimal. And subject to change. So unless you're throwing down that cash money every other meta change it's probably best to just go with utility > aesthetics >>> DPS imo ;)
Human is best for PvP atm though. And still great for pve and also very nice aesthetic.
Hello!
Iโve read the guides but Iโm still finding difficulties with the spec
Iโm trying out sin after having leveled 1-110 with sub. I went into a M+, finding out my dps on AoE is much worse, and@doing trash packs Iโm always energy starved, to the point that I often had no spell to kill explosives orbs with (and I also took the vigor talent). I rarely had energy issues on sub even without vigor, mainly due to the refund on finishers and the raw energy gain from sybols of death. How do you manage you energy? If I spend more time pooling I just do crap dps on trash packs
you dont spam as hard as sub, sin's apm is lower
and sin isnt not designed for aoe unless pb
I was doing fine on bosses, having more CP on crits has crazy sinergy with shoulders. But Iโm playing a lot of dungeons on my main toon, and never found a single sub rogue, everyone is playing sin and doing fine in M+
Oh dear god
What I did while leveling and having no FoK/shuriken storm
I remember it being painful
prob because 1-60 questing takes years of running
I just queued for dungeons while questing. As a lone dps it can take 15 mins to find a group
yup, on kazzak takes like 3 min to pop
Yea subs are easier in lvling
As sin you kinda need some time to build up dmg
With that said, sin can shine more in higher keys where mobs tend to live longer
Imagine if you do a 10 with sin
you can do a 10 with 850 ppl and deplete it ๐
Man thatโs actually so true. Especially after that bfa pre orders
A lot of fresh 110s just fked up everything
Like how can ppl fail a 5
The tank was like, sorry this is my 3rd dgn after dingโd to 110
it's fine people have to learn
as long as they learn
what I don't like is that at some lelvels it becomes a kite fiesta with slows
run in,, pop cds, get 3-4s of aggro, stun, run
Isnโt that what they do in mdi lol
i suppose
is the zandalari racials out yet? I havent followed any wow news
watching that maw of soul + 20 for like 3943578934 times
thats what i do when run normal and heroic dugeons
is definitely very depressing
you mean go to maw 20 pull everything bop a monk and watch them doing 60m dps
yup, fun
Monk ๐คข
Also fun when monks die like 50 times a day
Can I check if a rogue can solo soak. Mythic aggramar flame rend using cloak?
you can't
you need 6 ppl (or 5) to not trigger his buff "gone" mad
don't remember the name
cloak doesn't give you debuff and makes you immune to dmg
Thanks for the info
you can cloak 1st, feint 2nd
Sin or sub better choice fight for this boss?
Anyone know how i can do gear compairson easier with raidbots? instead of equipping and simming evey time?
you mean easier than ? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/gear
quick question: what's the usual choice with the vanish combo? vanish+env or vanish+rupture?
env with mantle rup without
ty for the quick answer
Depends also if you're running NS or subterfuge
how much dps are you guys pushing in the last phase on argus mythic?
Hell no, use cloak so you dont need to run away when the big circle hits ๐
Deeps man, its all that matters ๐๐ป
Oh agg discuss was a hour ago lol. Gotta watch which time ppl post their shit ๐
unless your RL makes you a soak bitch with your fellow rogues
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/aPcxuqxKZ4sFANJ3bPs9tm should I go for this relic, Im getting 3rd Master Assassin and losing 1 Master Alchemist
Looks like a 20k increase.
AHHH
Jhonwei sb when?
he doesnt meme hard enough
flowi sb when? the poll was clear
@jovial kite better in #off-topic
its a dead channel anyway ๐คฃ

slaggjack is it true that Finns like to go to vaalimaa to get their vodka supply from russian "tourists"
viking line to tallinn, the classic journey
hehe
i wish i remembered the name of that fish shop i visited outside of kotka many years back, they had the most exquisite fish and meat for a relatively fair price too
found it, somehow. http://www.disasfish.fi/ you been there slaggjack?
I'd go there purely for that name lmao
nope, sadly
its very popular amongst russians, see its not very convenient to go to Murmansk for similar quality
has anyone got spare time to look at my logs and give some advise
sure, just link them here
any particular fight you want us to look at?
nah just cant seem to get any higher logs on hc wondering if im doing something wrong mainly
your gear is not that high, that is wrong
terrible relics
okay i thought those logs showed for my gear lvl range guess thats wrong
it shows both
what relics are you guys running vendetta ones?
i cant find that many rotational problems except on garothi you fucked your second vanish by not using other cooldowns with it and using your nightstalker on rupture
vendetta and master alchemist
okay atleast i know my rotation is fine thats good
Your buff uptimes is decent aswell
yeah all are 95%+ and cooldowns were used on cooldown
get better gear and fix your second vanish and you should be good to go
i saw somewhere on here i think to use the vanish rupt instead of van enve ?
Vanish rupt is only without shoulders
ah
With shoulders legendary, u do vanish env
nice cheers guys
@viscid helm btw that's what I meant with double CT https://clips.twitch.tv/DoubtfulFilthyVelociraptorSeemsGood
are you clicking your spells
r1 speedclicking that openers
Zempy the competitive clicker 
yeah https://goo.gl/SzqBjr logs don't look special
so idk why it was showing two debuffs after two hits ๐คท๐ป
holding vanish for CT was a bit overkill I think
Woohoo got mage tower done!


hey guys if i'm at 4cp, both garrote and toxic blade are on cd and im fairly low energy while rupture is about to run out
do i mutilate rupture or do a 4cp rupture
Only if it's nightstalker empowered.
You want to refresh with pandemic so like 7ish seconds off the top of my head.
what i meant is i shouldn't instantly refresh it to a 5cp rupture right?
What like rupture, mut back to 4+ and then rupture again?
The CP usage doesn't affect damage, only the duration.
Yes.
I'd suggest reading the tooltips tbh
to be fair it does say it deals a larger amount of damage over a larger duration, i was just too retarded to make that connection
Yeah most people just see bigger number and assume it's not just a linear increase.
it used to deal more damage per tick at the start of the expansion depending on how many combo points you used, but this was changed in 7.1.5
What are the best relic traits for m+ ? Would you still go with master assassin / master poisoner ?
master alchemist *
if your priority is m+, the best relics are poison knives and master alchemist
poison knives relics make a large difference on aoe packs, but are much less useful than master assassin relics in raids
@dire spoke I was looking at your logs, and it looks like melee does a respectable amount of damage now?
i thought zempais logs were inadmissible due to excessive clicking :p
grab a saw and venture outdoors
@calm grail white damage will be in top3 again yes
So it's a bug either way because that doesn't happen with rup or garr
Searing zap is tooo strong
