yup
it scans the combatlog to see if a poison bomb damage tick happened, and then spams chat
so by the time the tank reads the wa and actually has time to react, ~half of the ticks already happened :/
yea what i thought it was
just wanted to confirm =/
i mean... theres 2 more ticks if the tanks smart enough to guess where teh PB first went off ๐
yup, its why i eventually stopped using mine, even if the tank is supergood and wants to cater to your bombs, if hes already moving when it procs, theres just nothing to be done
@onyx falcon yeah it does not instantly announce the procs
its nice to know for the tank that ideally he isnt kiting during the next ~2seconds though
so its still a valuable addition if the tank wants to play around it
idk in lower keys i run, my tank friends just use my WA to move out of my PB when it procs on purpose so ๐
"PB?!, time to move"
i told my tank when he asked for it, that there is very little time to react, and he said he was up for the challenge xD
but i see why you would not bother with the wa, the reaction time the tank has to have is to big
yea its pretty much "Proc -> ~0.5s -> WA Shout"
if he is already moving, i doubt he can do anything, but if he is standing still as was about to move
i guess it comes in handy in that point
they should really just make a small graphic that you can see for it at least in 5 mans
you can see it in pvp fine
Struggling with Sin pvp... I feel like I can pour everything into someone and they rarely ever die..
If it's world PvP just put on cape and NS and wait for a minute then FoK
If you can't kill someone as sin in wpvp you don't have enough mythic gear
prolly can't kill a geared healer regardless
pre patch might be interesting though ๐
If it's wpvp just go sub and destroy people.
guys how many kingsbane stacks we can reach?
Does anyone k ow if mastery scales less with poisons but with bleeds on beta or are numbers not that far along yet?
bois what's the difference between TB before KB (in opener) and TB after KB (in opener) can't be that much of a difference right ?
I think itโs only small optimisation



is my boi tyra still around ?
Ya
๐
Buffing last 5 seconds of KB with TB if you're not holding for more than 5 seconds Is a win iirc
So it's situational based off TB vooldoen
Cool down*
delaying TB by ~15 seconds or more makes it more of a possibility to lost casts over the entire fight I reckon
no delaying spells before opener 
TB buffs KB, so there's no reason to KB before TB in the opener
Use your head and you could have answered that based on other info given.
Just took some intuitive thinking I guess ๐

pls
nah
I love your fucking name shiennar lmfao
Its a living meme
I love it so much.
But like read the skills
And use your head
Will make you better player to think for yourself
Sounds dickish but is true
reason why I came up with that question is that r1 log on imonar opens garrote>Mut>Rup>Vendetta>KB> TB
Doesnt mean its right ๐
Looking at r1 sin logs ๐๐๐๐
Dude had 25% pb but fucked up his opener
r1 imonar is actually no pb bs
look it up ๐
There's still no objective reason to KB first
Doesn't matter if R1 or not
Still a fuck up
Damage
Jesus fuck
Sim it

How do you guys feel about the assasssin rogue so far in BFA beta? ๐ thinking about lvling in assassin and maining it...
You're the curious one, not us
jumpstart my brain
Deformed
hey that wasnt toxic ๐ค
serious questionasking
Do the number differences really matter if its always going to be a loss?
As its specific to the opener?
No
simcraft shows this as the optimal opener
'but what if you uuuuuuuuuuuh'

Nobody gives a shit about beta because tuning hasnt been done
Needy
Okay okay damn ๐
It'll be so good, then it will go live
Then they'll adjust numbers
Maybe twice
and it'll all be different
So banking on something so early isn't going to help
True,
Guess i will just decide on release day what i will lvl as
I'm not the smartest boi without my coffee...
now that I think about y'all right ๐
leveling with most mobile spec for me, so probably sub ...

hey yall i have a question. When do u use vanish after opener if you go with shoulders
Hold for vendetta
vendetta for hold
Outside of the opener, always line it up with vendetta.
Unless theres some scenario where the fight will end before vend will be up
shoulders
๐คข
vendetta relics ๐ฎ
no shoulders fetish for Shienn :/
crown ftw
ohhh nice reference
how about the execute phase, do i hold any cds for that or just do rotation normally
Depends on the length of the execute phase in terms of if you're going to hold for anything
Or if you're using bracers etc
ye i'm using bracers
execute is ur biggest dmg output time of the fight
so using all cds in unison there is a must
aka vanish with vendetta

i'm trying but i think i'm doing something wrong :x
Well you've made it to 10/11M and still not covering the basics mate
Can go over logs if you want
I've got time today so if you wanted to look into some stuff, i'm free
if i post logs i'll just get roasted

you know what happened? yesterday my fellow rogue got 3 pbs in opener on varyhardthras, then raidlead decided to wipe, cuz ain't noone escaping the log police
I was like 

if that is is serious full omegalul
๐ LOG ๐ POLICE ๐
๐
well full story would be that buyer, who was also rogue was talented cheat death, and didnt die fast enough so he spawned void , which was also a reason.... but mostly log l^police
your RL is weird

be buyer
stack on tank to die
but stack on offtank for maximum lul

Very important
okay thanks
Toph appearing from the shadows
WOOSH
Is my aoe supposed to be garbage compared to others in my group or am I doing something wrong?
fast paced dungeons so mobs dont live much
I mean, why are you playing assassination if you want aoe?
mostly get to fok a couple of time and 1 or 2 env
Assa is viable but sub is more consistent on aoe
I'm new to rogue, trying the spec.. just wondering if im doing something wrong
It can be very very low if youre unlucky yes
you won't be able to compete until very high keys and even then maybe not that, monks and dh will global crap before you even get a chance to dps
once you reach high keys sin is quite good especially on some dungoens
Upper karazhan they are very strong
Yea
@nimble bison youre aoe could also be low if the tank is kiting the mobs, ruining your poison bombs
Not sure what level of keys we talking about
I mean
not kiting
just running around
pulling
while they die
so they are not in 1 spot
Yea there u go

I'm really happy for you TOPH but Tom had the best parses of all time!
Yeah perelman thats just flat out not true
boots/bracers all the way
filthy tryhards swapping leggos per fight amirite
did you play NS or subterfuge?
ive always preferred subterfuge on coven for some reason
I wish I would get the non shitty pods on high command
not running bracers mantle for entire ABT in 2k18 KAPPA
Subterfuge is flat out better for most people
its just very rare cases that ns sims higher
with boots bracers
I wish I could have 1 decent try on high command and hasabel
but 2.8mil w/o pk relics is pretty damn good
id love to do another coven mythic just to parse ๐
wtf tisumi you're wearing 7 gems?
wait toph, you dont have 7 gems?

are you running around with 945 king ring like me ? @spare cloud
No
i mean long fights kinda benefit us
I mean i have 980 Haste Crit ring , but haste 
Yea well I'm not playing this game anymore at all
I just log in for main raid and sell
gotta not play until bfa
same, cant wait for prepatch

I would be up for it
I sleep now.
but I am not getting reinvited to our discord
It's been good.
oh yeah, what happened to naya ?
He left when saber got unbanned
still not sure if saber got banned or left
apparently his ban isn't in the auditlog
don said it wasnt in the auditlog
still dont know wtf happened with saber
but stjern said he was banned
asked 1 mil times
so confusing
Just go on tank chat
search for
saber "nigga"
get like 10000 results
that should give you an idea
is he even black ?
lmfao
no he's french
He was mentally unstable.
....
why does it matter if hes black or not
I mean being french I can understand him being mentally unstable
yeah right
because that makes it less racist
If they insult themselves
the word is either acceptable or not
Saber was always toxic.
@exotic glen > Just go on tank chat

How does math work again?
dk, I had a window seat during class
I never had math in school
german schools
@exotic glen applys to swiss schools too
i just said german because thats where toph is from
so ? still applies ๐
No but like
except for learning english and learning to write/read
school was literally useless for me, it does nothing for my studies
its practically a daycare where you learn to interact with people

why no r1 pls ?

Idk I suck too hard to get good logs
im happy with the bfa changes
less room for mistakes when you suck
exactly my type of game
looking at top logs now adays....
any changes in particular you're thinking about toph?
like there being only 1 boss where r1 logs arent shoulders bracers says a lot about the viable builds
for parsing that is
one less button without kingsbane
@exotic glen
less to think about

Should I be using kingsbane right after envenom? Or use at 4CP then envenom?
Xaethron resurrection when
in about 23 hours
you dont really want to use it at 4cp, since kingsbane can give you between 1-3cp depending on how it crits @proud gust
should extend the ban to 3 days in order to come full circle tho
ideally you have 2-3CP, use kingsbane, then envenom
if its up and youre already at 4cp, you will want to envenom and then kb+muti after
the important part is having up envenom/surge of toxins close to 100% during the kingsbane
Guy in my shop just stole about 30x Wow 2 Month Gametime cards

you still lose some money on those, or how exactly does that work?

Does stat priority change when it comes to mythic+? Over all damage(for dungeon) from first to 4th: Deadly Poison, Envenom, (poison bomb), Rupture.
If I wanted to break 2m-2.5m per M+ would I just prioritize more mastery over Crit?
2B-2.5B**
stat prio for aoe is mastery>vers>agi>crit, since crit heavily devalues on aoe once you are able to basically have unlimited resources
Is there a instanced u'd want to vanish a poison bomb ? IE, pulling all ads leading to boss?
Ideally you want several different sets for m+, speed, trash aoe, st, ...
if you have multiple gearsets, its advisable to vanish for poisonbombs, yes
you can usually play a singletarget legendary setup that doesnt have shoulders and still sim almost the same
so you can afford to vanish on trash instead
Mantle + cloak into vanish + set change
technically its possible, unfortunately it rarely works
since any damage you deal puts you back into combat immediately
so any poison or bleedtick does it, and since you usually vanish for bombs, the issue just gets even worse
If anyone has time for a log analysis, greatly appreciated. Character: Pwrbottomdps

wasted a bunch of combopoints (non-crit ones too), fairly low envenom/vp uptime, garrote dropped during the second weapon-spawn and you didnt reapply for a while, opener is a little messed up since you used vendetta after using tb/kb, so neither one of them got the 30% damage increase bonus
only 2 vanish in a 4min30 fight
only 2 envenoms during shoulders window
yeah, both vanishes only had 2 envenoms
so basically
some unclean gameplay, overcapping CP on occasion, not playing a clean opener, stuff like that
also saved toxic blade to be used before every kingsbane
just use both cooldowns on cooldown
with that low of an envenom uptime, i wouldnt even say thats a bad thing
hard to say
but if you do save TB for every KB; cast it during the last 9seconds of it, not before
so yeah, pay more attention to when youre at 4CP so you dont accidentally cast yet another mutilate, which will lead to a better envenom uptime, and get a weakaura that yells at you when your cooldowns, most importantly vanish and vendetta, are back up again
but if you do save TB for every KB; cast it during the last 9seconds of it, not before there's actually a few top logs that use tb into kb only
that I've looked it.
I know it's better to use both of cooldown but I swear every other top log I look at does something fancy with their tb and kb
And that stil ldoesnt make it right
of course, I get that
its not the optimal way to play, but when youre already struggling to keep up decent envenom times, you dont want to use TB on CD imo
the difference is minimal, and you need to consider the fight lenght, because TB on CD can lead to more uses of TB during the fight
since youre either gonna have massive issues with KB/envenom uptimes, or only cast like 1 envenom during TB
or you could just pool before tb
so syncing them might be worth it as a short-term solution to the envenom issues
sure, but if youd do that, you wouldnt have low envenom uptimes to begin with

Assassination guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
how big of a dps upgrade are the bis leggos usually?
Combinator results of the Tier 21 Mythic Single Target simulations for the Rogue Assassination.
All of our leggos for the most part (except maybe cloak) are pretty close so should be a decent upgrade
gotcha, atm ive got no leggos, but coming from a class where bis is required to do shit, so just wondered. thanks~!
I mean I am doing just fine with Prydaz/KJBW
๐ฎ
Neither of those are really "rogue" leggos tho, those are ones everyone has (and generally not good)
I mean helm/boots/bracers/shoulders
yeah, the top 4 legendaries are all fairly close in value
Doesnt make them less Rogue leggos ๐
doesnt make them good (or prydaz/kjbw)
well do have helm but lose 4 set :/
Well getting the other pieces shouldnt be too bad
nah
Have to find a new guild came back after 3 months break everyone just scattered elsewhere
hello, can i evade M argus scythes? the ones that go across the room in p3
yes
what you do is you look at the first set of scythes that spawned, and look where they are going to fly, and pick a safe spot
and once theyre through, you just change your position to one of the spots (you can still see a little animation of where they travelled) where the first scythes intersected, which is a safezone for the second set
hmm i meant can we use the ability 'Evasion' to completely negate the mechanic
No
okie, tah
You have to evade it yourself
lovely
nope, you have to manually dodge it
the only way to remove the debuff, is to get a blessing of protection from a paladin
You can use evasion on scythes
You have to be facing the direction it's coming from though
100%?
Yes
alright i'll give it a go now
^ can confirm
wut, i was not aware of that. neat.
Another one might clip u from the side so it's a bit dangerous
You can also use the shadowstep evasion but it's a much smaller window
i mean unless you stand on one of the intersections of 2 scythes, you should only get hit by one anyway
Yea and the will make you not face it
The sets of scythes in p3 make a right angle, face your character into the corner where the lines meet and you're good
The step
Depends where boss is facing
You have time to turn after step
But it's really tight
I've only been ballsy with sstep evasion in p2
is the opener/rotation section in the guide up to date
yes
thanks
not bad
from a mythic 0?
?
oh
for singletarget its still not bad
it's up there yea
depends a lot on the boss obviously, whether you can constantly get double-hits off
i never much liked specter as assa
for m+ its shit
since you cant use it on pull because you have to swap it in from your aoe-gear
so its on a 30sec cd when you pull boss
since you will most likely vendetta on pull, if you dont vanish on pull, youll line up your vanish with your next vendetta, which means you may get the first double-hit of the trinket into your vanish ~1m10s into the fight, but im not sure if its worth at that point
and if you vanish on pull, you wont be using it a second time during the bossfight, so none of your specter hits will be during shoulder-buff, so i feel its pretty meh for m+
yeah, trying to remember how to use it in sub correctly
if its worth holding it for symbols
for shadow dance
for sub just basically bind it into shadow dance
using spect in 2k18
any current theorycraft on BFA beta talents?
Probably very little since number tuning still needs to happen and will probably be all over the place even at launch.
But everyone who has beta is probably feel crafting

Jhonwei sb when
๐คฆ
Nah it's just a neat passive talent.
Something else would probably have been even less interesting.
less interesting is fine
if I wanted to play slot machines, i'd play slot machines
Nah the passive row is rather throw-away, least it's neat but doesn't allow for giant swings in DPS.
Nah, it procs enough, the damage is just rather poor.
@spare cloud soon tm
I mean the increased proc rate for lower damage is certainly an improvement, but its still heavier on rng than what is typically desirable
and since it doesn't scale with anything other than Attack Power (IIRC), they can actually increase the damage without it going completely out of fucking control.
does it not scale with mastery anymore?
It might.
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Can test it easily enough.
Gimme a couple of minutes.
IF THE SERVERS WERE UP
mmmUpdate
@flint pelican Some results...
Poison Bomb with this on and off...

Why would it suddenly not scale with mastery anymore
