Blind Blinds the target, causing it to wander disoriented for 1 min. Damage will interrupt the effect. Limit 1.
Cooldown changed from 2 min cooldown to 1 min cooldown
What are you best settings for raidbots and what are the best settings to test legendaries with?
might be a dumb question but if you are spec'd to blindside i'm assuming it replaces mutilate at <30% boss health correct?
what's the neck enchantment to go now ?
yes unless you have venom rush talented
what happens if you have venom rush talented?
you just use mutilate sub 30%, but still blindside on proc
oh ok cool thanks for the heads up
hmmm guysssss
claw or satyr
satyr, sim whats better for you tho
do u like crimson tempest?
so i rly want to apply rupture on every mob with the crimson tempest build?
Yes
i am relatively new to rogue and bought the cloak to kinda troll with the built in version, but the tooltip damge isnt represented in using it on adds in a mythic plus despite it doign the dmg it says on training dummies in the order hall is it supposed to be scaled down in dungeons?
@viscid pawn There was a discussion about it a bit further up. I asked the question for you since I saw your PM and wasnt 100% sure myself.
But a rule of thumb was: ~4 enemies. Garrote them all, put 1 CT on them and then put rupture up. If more than 4 enemies it feels like FoK and CT spam could be better. You still garrote as many as you can tho.
okay, thank u 😃
yo guys
pretty hard to keep all this stuff up
lvl 48 rn, which warmode talents should i go for?
Juggling all the dots 😉
@lone junco Small sample size but the best I could do to compare Vig/DS CT vs MFD CT bracers was a +12 EoA. Vig/DS = 4.7k overall DPS; MFD CT = 4.3k overall DPS
are both rings gonna be best for leveling or will we use the shoulders
for assassination
shoulders and belt is what im using for lvling will 2 shot most things
Question. Does the Talent Master Poisoner affect Leeching poison?
(Master Poisoner) increases your poisons' damage by 30% and their non-damaging effects by 20%
(Leeching Poison) improves your Deadly Poison and Wound Poison, causing them to also grant 10% leech to your damage.
np
Anyone know what the haste cap is?
is gorshalach still not good for us? I can't find any info on that trinket
~27% is nice to have but have to sim yourself to make sure what your stat weights are.
Trinkets results of the Tier 21 Single Target simulations for the Rogue Assassination.
Yeah. It was strange cuz i hid my dmg meter and I swear I felt like MFD combo would have been way higher dps 😄
But statistically speaking my comparison is nonsense 😄
I am torn on mythic argus now. Haste/vers or crit/mastery
haste vers without question
So I have mained Sin for quite a while now and I was going to try giving Outlaw a try, according to sims though it does 500 dps lower on single target and almost 2k lower on aoe. I haven't really played it much yet so I don't know the practical difference. Is that fairly accurate?
Can I also get a sin role assigned?
hm, what's preventing me from asking questions in #385145484559253506
Lack of role, like me 😃
just get a role in #bot-spam
Thanks
Maybe its just bad stats but Outlaw should have higher single target dps according to the pin. I'll toy around with it a bit
What are our opener for 8.0 single target? Since we dont have kingsbane and subterfuge is played alot

It's not so much a lack of a role as it is lack of checking pins like you're supposed to.
Working as intended tbh
question that im sure is pinned somewhere
is there any reason to envenom as elaborate planning is falling off for extra dmg or do i just go for max envenom uptime
you aim to clip envenom in elaborate planning
so yes elaborate planning does take priority
but if you go for elaborate planning clipping over and over you will run out of steam so you have to be aware that sometimes you should fall back to the envenom buff for a cycle or two
Are there any rotational changes for Master Poisoner?
that was terrible grammar but you undermeant what I stood
no not really @onyx dew
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/VdtP23PqHymQzBeaT8q8w when u need relics bad
no u
how do i get outlaw role
#bot-spam
thanks papi
Np son
Alright, @sand olive has been warned because '** don't troll**'.
not gonna lie, shoulder alignment with vendetta is pretty smooth.
made for a nice Kingoroth.
well, and anything else.
smooth as eggs
I really need to fix my wa. default unit frames have debuffs now, but timing the pandemics is hard from the itty bitty debuff bar on the target.
off to a good start.
lol
nice dps
was guild raid on garothi. i expected them to be higher. I was floating at like 6-7k for a while
that was nice
Do you guys think vanish and garroting boss/2x tanky adds on high command 2nd boss is a dps increase?
If not running shoulders that is
Does using arcane torrent for dps feel bad for anyone else since its on the gcd
bought shoulders and got insignia in one day fucking pogchamp
👌
nice nice
So whats the best legendary set up now?

Dunno why but my sephuz is better than my insignia even though everyone says to use insignia
which means if sephuz is good for you, it's even better when you can proc it
Right that’s what im thinking
Whats that best sim settings?
Thanks alot 😃
Has anyone a good assa wa?
that link should be in resources or pins
on the other side ... nobody reads that
nevermind
Well i did it first)
I found wa on wago but it dosnt works or they are shit
they may be outdated or written in spells of another language than your client instead of IDs
@flat cove wait a couple of days Nurseous from Exorsus gonna do it soon enough
Ok
Can i miss a 5-10 ilvl from items to take that awesome haste boost on my twink assa?

Just left from PC a couple minutes ago xD
Is there a point we dont want crit after? Im sitting at 46% right now
Sim yourself to find out
its shown in pawn strings that haste is better for me for awhile now. but is there a drop off point that we know of for crit yet?
obviously koffing.. im wondering if there is a soft cap at somepoint
There are no soft caps, the point at which one stat over takes another in terms of priority is dependant on the percentages of your other stats.
Sim the crit chart, if you see other stats overtaking it in the chart, grats you found it?
Yes, it’s called stat weights
Up to date stat weight sims are the only way for you to individually know when haste will drop off in favour of another stat.
yes, and i keep them that way
Then you're doing the right thing
👌
Do you guys think it will be worth it to go for dreadlords deceit and mantle of the master assassin while lvling towards 116 or is it worth way more to get the trait shoulders from BFA? :)
I've just heard the crit FoK is insane while lvling
After the change to Hidden Blades + Deardlords I am not even sure how much damage is being done anymore while leveling.
change to hidden blades? haven't followed too much up on outlaw
you're in assassination right now
Yeah my AGI has started to be king =\
Hidden Blades and Dreadlords used to stack multiplicatively (meaning they were multiplied together normally) which lead to a monstrous damage increase. They now stack additively which amounts to like, 1/4 of the previous damage.
You guys running Old war or prolonged?
Whatever SIMs the best, Old War winning at the moment IIRC.
@dire spoke I know, MiZeroks comment just confused me forgot they made a talent called hidden blades, i was thinking of the outlaw skill before bfa prepatch 😛 which made it make no sense to me 😃
makes sense now, i have no idea if hidden blades stack with dreadlords deceit
It either does or I got trolled when I read it does somewhere
guess i will have to test it out
would assume hidden blades and dreadlords deceit plus the stealth crit thing would be super OP while lvling
or max stack oneshot other groups in pvp 😛
from wowhead journal for M+ rankings:
"Any Rogue Spec - Last time I did these rankings, I listed Outlaw as my choice for rogue specs. Since then I have had the privilege of running dungeons with all three rogue specs and now realize that it wasn't just Outlaw -- all three of the specs are amazing. Subtlety is great for erasing Infested mobs; Assassination has top notch single target damage and an AoE slow that can be spammed; Outlaw is still doing great AoE damage. Combine stellar damage with rogue utility and you've got yourself a winner. This class came out of the tuning pass this week mostly unscathed, so it's an easy top choice."
Thats sound really nice for now
So what he’s saying is we’re getting nerfed
Emphasis: >>>>>>this week<<<<<
"we've found a strong correlation between rogue's high damage, and their ability to use weapons. We have removed their ability to use weapons, and are eager to hear your feedback on the change!"
^
Fine apparently, as long as we have an aoe slow
Damage from CT removed and changed to 40% more slow
nah, we talk about blizzard, they would nerf it that way: Fan of Knives/shuriken storm now always generate only 1 combo point, we want rogues too focus on single target dmg
oh god just tried simming sub and outlaw gear compared to sin its a tragedy 😦 6,350 as sin v 5,6 5,7 sub / outlaw i want to try sth else D:
or something like "we removed poisons from rogues"
better = "We removed Rogues from WoW" 😄
blasphemy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
make frivolous copyright complaints on the videos to prevent nerfs from happening 🤔
Rogue is love Rogue is live Rogue rules!
So... which is the best talents options to assa PvP?
I use 123321
Is Pawn incorrect about the Darkshore WQ weapons being an upgrade over the Kingslayers? I assume it's counting the Kingslayer as one item or something, and assuming you'll equip the Darkshore weapon in an empty slot.
ok, i assumed so
I know the Kingslayers counted as a single weapon previously so I assume Pawn just thinks you have a second empty weapon slot.
If you have NH level relics in your weapons, then yes they are likely better than the artifact.
so they are crap for me
They are 190 base ilvl but can WF/TF iirc.
And as you don't receive 2 to compensate for MH/OH its doubtful yes.
pawn with its stat weights tried to tell me the 190 dagger was a 44% upgrade to my 226 kingslayers so something was funky there
have u recently updated ur stat weights?
cuz raidbots stat weights now include weapon dps
updated a day before the darkshore dropped and an hour ago, so I guess that’s where it went weird since I hadn’t updated recently enough
Artifacts are treated as one weapon, thus you need to sim with two weapons to make sure you are getting the right reading, instead of switching out one by one.
have they done something to poison bomb spell? my weak aura doesnt work. downloaded 5 weak auras from wago non works? any ideas?
Make sure you are downloading BFA weakauras.
even those 5 days earlier dont work
well it's a talent and not an artifact trait anymore
weakaura may be trying to track "bag of tricks"
anyone has any link with working one?
which... doesn't exist
its checked as talent
tried to modify it as far my knwledge of wa goes and still nothing
yours working?
I don't use one because poison bomb is completely out of my control, does not change my rotation, and does very little dmg
so if I did it would just be screen clutter 🤷
the id of the spell changed
u gotta replace it with the new ID
@rough yarrow try this wa here
PB (icon)
and find out the ID of PB
and replace it into ur old PB WA
and it will work
thas me 😮
The PB WA is annoying more than helpful
If someone in my group is using that, Im taking the mobs right out of it btw.
Never standing still ever again.
so what do you guys think the best talents are
Whatever sims best.

what i hate the most in m+ tanks, like druid with typhoon that kicks mobs away or out of PB and tanks that take mobs out of PB....
You can just use details to see the damage from it and figure it out
why bother clickin around in a dungeon when U can see the stats on ur chat window?
Because it doesnt matter?
why to do that in a dungeon thats nbot finished?
In the end nothing comes of more or less pb procs
ya ahve enough time to look at it after the dungeon in details
it doesnt change anything about play style or anything
Because the WA is annoying when it goes off
not if u deactivate the spamming in the WA
which .01% of people do
but for what ya need that WA? it doesn't matter if ya know which time is PB active cause ya can't do anything for it
What talents are ppl using for PVP/PVE atm? - Srry, messing around on my rogue that i havent touched in a while
check the pinned resources for pve
check pins
Thx, anything for pvp here or ravenholdt site?
@lofty junco ofc you cant do anything for it but it still cool to check if ur lucky or not
@wide delta just check it after fight/dungeon/m+/raid in ya deatails
why would I LOL
*details
For pvp, #pvp might have something I'd say system shock, creeping venom, flying daggers are good, maybe deadly brew instead of flying daggers for when there are less than 3 targets
i wanna check it after each boss
therefore the WA without chat spam
so it tells me the exact % of proccs I had
its interesting for me and no need for u to judge wether Its useless or not
i just can't get my head around it why is that important...its do nothing to help and PB isn't that important in prepatch how it was before Prepatch
Y'all are discussing some dumb shit. If it doesn't impact me I dont give a shit what others are doing with wa s or add-ons.
what neck enchant for assassination?
thanks @shrewd night
claw or satyr
bis leggys for assass?
blake just bein retarded minding other ppl their business lol
TBH i wasn't the person that started the discussion
That's a quick way to being muted or banned xiansho
just writen some of my thoughts
btw i had heard from a clickable WA for poison. had until now used Slice and dice button for that. is that really possible?
there is a clickable poison, even supports right click for crippling. So im sure SnD could be set up similar
have ya a link or name?
uno momento
no need to hurry^^
might have to mess with triggers. for me it seems to only pop up in dungeon/raid
but it does still work
do you guys use any special mod to keep track of your bleed timers (rupture/garrot)
Weak Auras.
https://wago.io/weakauras/classes/rogue/assassination
Have a browse, make sure they're updated for BFA. Weak Aura preferences are subjective so it's best to see for yourself in terms of what would suit you best.

Screen shot screen shot!
I've been tinkering with having the personal resource shown and having weak aura following it
!warn @wide delta That's twice you've referred to someone as retarded now. Please familiarise yourself with the rules in #rules-and-guides . Next time it's a mute.
Alright, @wide delta has been warned because 'That's twice you've referred to someone as retarded now. Please familiarise yourself with the rules in #rules-and-guides . Next time it's a mute.'.

@solid nova so strong and forceful 😍
Baby's first mod!
they grow up so fast
@limpid perch i use https://wago.io/H1TbcZLNQ which is a modified version of https://wago.io/413nGHrbQ/1 . I removed kingsbane timer, and added Elaborate Planning was all

Ct > pb in m+. Thanks
high level high health packs yes
I just use Miz's HUD which has timers
low level low hp packs just stick with pb
^ but this the sin page
But anything that lives long works against blade flurry timings. Thus the FOK Ct spam.
i hate outlaw cause they deleted our combat love
Was just reading method JBs post on speccs.
@civic palm is your WA pack intended for sharing? Cause I need to find something.
does exanguineadate spell work on Crimson Tempest?
no
Pretty much you bring the rogur specc that you need based on your other groups utility
Rogue*
@limpid perch give those WA a try, made it real easy to keep a visual on poisons
If you have a frost Mage, that was probably okay, if you don't have a frost Mage you probably want to use assassination.
Stuff like that.
he/she/zhe/ze/zim....
how about IT?^^
i dont understand ze/zim am i transphobic?
That's what I call my wife
omg i noticed we doesn't got a long time a pin/sim question^^
I actually decided to sim master poisoner instead of assuming EP was better
and what do you know mp was higher...
My MP was about even, but EP is >> in 2T
guess 'cause I still have a fair amount of mastery
was it a 5 minute fight?
intermission is kind of awkward
if you have insignia do you mut and try to hit them both
or just fok fok fok
pB was such a small proc
in that graph it is the blue
my uptimes were trash cause my wa is busted and it makes me bad
i think MP>EP in fights with intermission or when ya can't have a 100% uptime on boss
isn't exginate better than TB with current bleeds dmg?
exang is 1000 dps drop for me
in my best exang gear
so Im not going to bother
Shoulder/Vendetta alignment was nice. == 2min
exsang was good when vendetta had a 45s cd
exsang was good when Bota and Conc aligned with a vanish NS Rupture Exang
tbh, let me check the APL and see if anything is glaringly wrong
shit I logged as outlaw
hans get ze flammenwerfer
how is our damage looking right now?
At the moment, pretty good. In the future: 🔮
did you see anything in there?
huh?
in the crystal ball?
Isnt it like 110:sin 120:sub ?
There's been no tuning so no clue
We will have to wait and see
my Crystall ball said: We will rule the complete addon!
45 sec exang 2min vendetta 2min vanish.
@warm parcel is there an APL with exang held to 1min intervals? The desync is pretty shitty.
that vanish rupture exang without vendetta is no Bueno
it would be a loss at the 3-4min mark if you delay each exang 15 sec.
but its got to be better than this.
the vendetta overlap is probably necessary
when you exang at 45, then hold vendetta for 1:30. then you dont have vendetta for the vanish exang at 215
since vanish and vendetta are both 2min. Id just like to see exang at the 1 min intervals
@vestal wren he’s talking about delaying so that every other exsang is wth vendetta though
ye i see
more like every other is Vendetta Vanish Rupture Exang
it's like they should make exsang 1min cd 🤔
uhm
i was looking for talents on the bfa guide
Talents
Single Target:
3210021
does the numbers means the position of the talent?
click "more info"
i made a video on a fan of knives build
/dps
discovered this and wanted to upload before someone else gets the idea and does so
did I hear C L I C K
for aoe do i just spam ruptures and hope poison bomb procs?
if you are running pbomb, and shoulders for M+, its not much different that it was for live
@lone junco so how long would you delay exanguinate for that?
15sec
might not be enough
exang 1 is vendetta vanish. exang 2 is filler. exang 3 is vendetta vanish
@strange python you know fok was fixed right? like first day on the pre-patch it got nerfed
how was it broken?
if it was stacked with cape you could crit for like 100k+
It was multiplicative now its additive
i see
CT is better than fok atm
does it stack enough to damage to use as a burst opener over mut?
it gets like 22k without crit
that's pretty decent i guess, but not sure if it's worth losing pbomb or ct over
they said pbomb is less rng but it still feels pretty rng to me
this is a christian channel
but my name preaches a (old) christian teaching
@lone junco just triyed to be 'smart' in the opener
ew
does crimson tempest work the same as it did in wod where casting another one with the dot up will just add to the dot?
No
rip
@vestal wren rupture exang vanish mut woops
Why is there 3rd rupture prior to exsang?
refresh condition
rupture is always prior to exang
Yeah but 3rd on pull
I dont know how you would structure the mid block exang tbh. conditional for Vendetta vanish rupture exang seems easy enough, but the one at 55 sec isnt
In the ravenholdt guide it says to maintain rupture and garrote on all targets. In mythics, how many mobs is it worth putting all those dots on? New to rogue
what lvl30 talent for that sim?
Leveling another rogue whats the go-to spec for lvling atm?
idk i think that would make sense
im ok with the refresh for max pandemic. just dont want any vendetta or vanish cast without exang.
✅ rupture refresh (pandemic)
✅ garrote subterfuge buffed (pandemic)
✅ vendetta up
-> exang
🙌
still a loss tho
@lone junco ok just making sure cause the older guide mentioned to only garrote if T20, but that’s outdated ofc
just dont lose the 2nd exang in the process. there is no vendetta isnt ready yet
can you post an html ?
sure
i did not change anything there outside of the diffrent exang use in the opener
@crimson terrace for larger pulls, current M+ is typ subterfuge garrote garrote (3rd is up to you) then 1 -2 rupture max, then fok ct spam.
its still desync
its still wonky
the subterfuge exang could probably be better than the NS rupture. but the time staggers are awkward.
I can just run an LFR and do it manually and log it.
those damn fights last forever
hi , i have 44 crit , 22% hast, 34 maitrise , 11 poly . do we have a cap hast or crit cap in assassination now ?

need to run your stat weights. it may want you to have a bit more haste
i have sim with my actually stuff cause before the patch i was full maitrise and poly , and i want to know witch stat i must priorize for my future stuff
That's what the sims are for. They tell you what stats give you the most value.
@misty quarry stats changed due to haste modifying bleed tick rates. Old gear may be trash or not. sims help
We can't tell you what stat to prioritize because its for your specific character. The best way is to run sims
sim stat weight ?
Yes
How to Sim Yourself: https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/51a4p1/guide_to_simcrafting_dps/
Raidbots or Pawn ?
both
37/26/32 and max poly ?
you take the weights from Raibots and put it into pawn.

pawn doesnt account for set bonuses or trinkets.
or effects like melandrus
so i dont need Simulationcraft ?
the simulation craft addon is best.
copy your string. and paste into the raidbots import box
but no, you dont need the full simc nightly exe
so need /simcraft, raidbot online version, and Pawn ?
The guide I posted will tell you all on how to do it
Read, absorb, do
i'm gonna read this 😄
tbh, this is why I cant go back to a healer.
they use Excel
fuck that manual import bullshit
tat Weights
Weapon DPS
15.64
Haste
3.10
Critical Strike
3.05
Agility
3.00
Mastery
2.58
Versatility
2.47
Off Hand Weapon DPS
1.46
Its hard to figure out upgrades. Most the prepatch healers arent even updating their spreadsheet
hast 😮
means your ilvl is fine. but swap out mastery for haste
just swap a ring/neck or ring ring. then run it again
I tried to figure out a way to get the stats from Armory to excel but I had issues trying to find the APL to do so
its only for the next few stat points so it is not a FOREVER weight
Excel allows for it to happen
There would still be manual stuff like set bonuses (tho not for long)
the excel pages are great, but holy shit why is there not a generic fight model for heals in simc
y i understand it
Discipline has an addon for sims, CantSim
Yea healing is weird for sim for heal potential too because I mean really heals can be limited by damage at least effective healing so you may never see near that much healing
but all that is accounted for in the spreadsheet aka fight models.
im just not doing that gear update in a spreadsheet.
thanks but nah.
yea. Im glad I found the disc priest one.
Owner just needs to expand it to other classes
guys, im doing 2v2 with feral druid and he wants me to start attacking rather than him starting
whats wisdom here?
ok ty
225 Seeping Scourgewing simming better than 245 Eye of Command ? is this correct?
prob yes
there are trinket lists and eoc tanked
Scourgewing probably scales well with haste. and since we have more than 0, it took off.
Mmm that makes sense thanks for the speedy reply ❤
to be sure
I did sim myself that's exactly why i asked...
I missed that part, but sims are usually right. Trust in the sim
Anyone here use Ipse's Weak Aura's and do you happen to have an update to the string for 8.0.1? Really enjoy the HUD but not skilled enough to rework it.
Pretty sure you delete it and reupload the new one
Yeah odd, reloaded it and still getting a conflict, could still be an issue with other addons.
old war or prolonged pure ST?
AIGHT
@alpine rain its good to ask. I trust sims but also my intuition. occasionally the fight style or sim theory doesnt match ingame play . aka belt sim values.
Question nothing! 😄
Its the American way
not mine
And just remember, what you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening
blobn
kinda noob here for assassination......haste food or mastery food?
@wet owl whatever stat gives u more DPS in ur sims
okay perfect thank you!
is there any way to proc sephuz as rogue on boss liek aggramar/argus ?
How to Sim step by step: https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/51a4p1/guide_to_simcrafting_dps/
Agg you prob can on adds
adds are too far 😦
You can stun the adds on Agg, Argus you can interrupt the split phase.
Other than that nah.
k thx
Well split + the wipe after rez thing.
considering it says you need to use CC, if it cant be CCed then you cant proc effect
^ CC/interrupts.
er yea forgot interrupts
Or dispells. Not sure if that matters for rogues. Wonder if the purge on BElf now works for that.
Playing belf in 2K18 
Too poor for race change back to glorious orc.
Yeah cause it was an interrupt.
I just more dunno if purges count as dispells though in this case.
Then again not much to purge in raid. Other than on like trash or something.
Maybe its like cloak? if cloak does maybe that does?
idk without playing it, but I dun wanna
Unless you want to pay for my faction change to and from 😄
I'm newish to rogue, just came back. I read the guides here, and on wowhead.. just curious why shoulders are almost always used? Is it to just get more burst up front?
with the opener you get 8 sec of 100% crit.
its a big deal especially with restealth between packs in M+
what reason is there to mainly do 4-5 point finishers as assassination? is it just poison bomb procs, or am i missing something else?
goal is uptime of dots and buffs.
a 3cp rupture doesnt really hurt, but critting a mut is 4. not critting is 2. so we have a lot of combos to get 4 or 5
just wondering coz if we're using Elaborate Planning, we could be getting higher uptime by using smaller finishers
(tbh, i havent simmed prepatch for the 3cp rupture
Poison Bomb or Crimson Tempest for mythic plus?
CT
deal
so i'm wondering if i missed something out in that thinking
if you use EP
EP?
you can sim a sort of M+ with 8 mobs 20 sec or 4 mobs 40 sec
ep is already at ~90% uptime
Practically 100% on more than one target
if you feel like you are struggling to maintain ep try simming master poisoner
hmm okk will do haha. i'm definitely not near 90% uptime 😄
im at 26% crit so is EP Elaborate Planning I assume?
yeah I got 44% crit and 25% haste. mp is still higher for me.
although my stats are just fine for ep
yes Stevy its elaborate planning
Thanks xD im noob lmao
26%crit is low for EP imo
we were all noobs once
Is subterfuge a must?
some of us are Noobes
haha Ive ONLY healed for so long so this is all new lmao
subterfuge is generally better than the others but you might sim higher with nightstalker if you have the shoulders
is the real answer for talents tho
NS and sub had 0% difference for me
Using Sephuz/Wrist
@inland cape for me, NS and Sub are actually 0 dps different.
and im using shoulder/bracer
Oh, nice. I will sim it.
EP/Sub/Vig/Tb/Pb
hmm I use sephuz wrist, maybe I should sim NS 😄
when i sim he say to me sephuz/ ravenholt lol
it lets me flight whistle in stealth
shoulders and bracer does highest sims for me
there are a lot of close legendary combos
I dont have insignia otherwise I would try that, but I have wrist/boots/helm/shoulders/sephuz and GA
Dont think the difference was huge
Insignia/wrists Sims highest for me, but there is some other combos that are close
So i Guess w/e xD
I even had vigor ring + mfd sim close
with 24% haste , vendetta boots isnt a good choice for more vendetta ?
is there a wa to see how many mobs are in range? I used to have that for sub rogue sstorm but cant find it anymore
vendetta boots just makes it so that your vanish doesnt align.
so if the sim says it sucks, it probably does.
sims is what you should be striving for or doing better than
Should be able to. So go and learn 👊🏻
Did you uh. Remember to apply poisons
?
Anyone willing to look at my argus kill last night and give some insight what I can improve?
Better to link vari or so
Don't have any vari parses lil
Garothi?
guys on the Herodmg website I see almost every build using Exs.. even MT fights they the changed it into that all bleeds get effected by it?
fuc nvm
got bleed build selected not poison xD
when below 30% do you just straight up stop using mutilate and only use blindside?
im pretty bummed about VR talent. flat reduction of mut seems pretty lame.
i liked Poison on bleed.
Is that an old azerite trait that got tossed?
which?
the talent from legion was poison applications on bleed. or v/v.
now it just benefits mutilate
so wasted in a fok condition
Ah yeah venom rush
How is Sephuz a BiS for ST? Especially in raids?
So just the Passive 2%?
well the full crit haste
haste effects bleeds now
Also @round harbor you arent using seeping scourgewing trinket so much harder to get a higher parse.
!trinkets
List of trinkets for each spec: http://tc.ravenholdt.net/
Could someone tell me to what extent the off-hand weapon matters for rogues? I got a good dagger from the world quest and I'm using a ilvl 80 dagger with 3 sockets and dancing steel.
For leveling, not much. You just need daggers for mutilate as Assn.
@round harbor at me your log
I guess I'm wondering about something more specific. I understand why the we need daggers but I'm curious as to how much it contributes to damage... or anything for that matter.
Scroll up a few messages
is raidbots bugged? No matter how i swap my gear around i always sim higher with spehyz's than insignia. Am i the only one?
Nope
nah sephuz is bis for me too.
Hmm ok
Everyone is different, but Sephuz is good now
you can post logs we don't bite.
He did
Yeah I fuck up my vanish combos alot it seems
how much is a fuck load?
Yeah this was my alt so I just stacked mastery from before
over 400.
you can try to item restore. it goes back 90 days.
Already tried, it's gone lol
F
Cause I know for fact I had a 960 scourewing
I used to sim high for ilvl, now its low QQ
need to be aware of tb cooldown so you dont have to refresh your bleeds during it
like here, delaying tb for a few seconds beats refreshing bleeds during it and not having any envenoms during it
so refresh bleeds then tb
if bleeds are longer than 8 seconds then im ok?
10+ seconds
ok, ive just been casting tb basically off cd and as a cp generator
anyone has a elaborate planning wa?
you're supposed to press it more or less on cd but you should be aware of the cd so you can refresh low bleeds before
still try planning around it
Idk if @civic palm HUD has EP with it, I would check wago.io and see
his ep is pretty smooth
also you should delay your first vanish until the first garrote has 5.4 seconds left
and with bracers/sephuz i dont really cast anything with vanish except vanish>garrote?
well, I guess ~7 seconds since you vanish envenom first
point is you want to do another subterfuge garrote with the first garrote at 5.4 seconds left
to clip the full duration
ye
envenom only with 5 or 4 too?
4+
so then my opener goes sopmething like garrote > mut > rup > mut > vendeta > vanish/garrote > continue
garrote-mut-(mut)-rupture-vendetta-TB-....vanish-garrote(6 seconds remaining)
also regarding refreshing bleeds before tb
you can rupture at 3cp if it really comes down to it.
3cp ruptures aren't a huge deal.
aslong as every cp of the tick gets used right?
The very last tick of rupture was doing like 15 damage when Miz was testing it the other day so refresh before 1 second for sure
well with pandemic u can refresh in the last 8 secs and it will be added into the new one fyi
Right but we are talking if you somehow forget or dont do that
ah ok
down to my last bonus roll for a heroic scourgewing
=/ used 9 the last two weeks lol
and we dont even kill him on mythic anymore
this might have been asked a million times already but, is there a haste cap?
So when using troll racial, is it best to pop it before vendetta?
Or later on
when lust wears out
just macro to vendetta
its a 3min cd tho
oh
Hi guys. If you play with cloak lego in m+, do you still spam FoK and just pretend it's not there?
No cap @vocal oasis but
for statweights
cool, ty
it doesn't matter what hand my best weapon is in does it
would anyone be able to dm me assassination lv52 rotations? i feel like i cant perform well enough with Sin at this levvel but not sure
No one has a rotation for 52...you can probably tell from the 110 rotation and make it fit with level 52 based on skills tho
for sure ty
Is assa good for leveling and what spec is blasting in bfa currently?
Yes, All
use cd's on cd
lol
!singuide
Assassination guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
😕 that still has Kingsbane as an ability and incorrect information
@fringe ginkgo I r dum
My experience this week, nope nope nope.
Was 20, team rage quit, was 19, really good team but we wiped so hard on last 2 bosses. Is it somehow overtuned?
On fortified? They should die almost instantly
Tyrannical bosses were melting last week at that key level
I heard that adds in boss fights on fortified are OP.
So maybe those demons summoned, or shadows are stronger, idk.
Last boss, before intermission his aoe is so freaking strong.
Oh god the portals on second last
Our druid pulling 6.2K hps overall on whole fight and he was surprised why it's so hard.
Otherwise he healed like a boss everything.
They said they smashed 20+ easily before pre-patch but now idk, it felt suddenly like much higher key.
Might just be cath, it was broken as hell when it was first introduced
Second last, tank + heal survivors managed to kill it, demon adds 1 hit in melee = 90% hp gone.
I think so too... almost 1M hp feels wrong, when it should be 270% more hp on boss.
Normally it has like 120k on mythic? So 270% shouldn't be 1M, right?
Sounds like firedogs issue? Magical damage hitting hard
Certain abilities like shadow volley in brh are doing a lot more than they used to
Maybe it's magical damage... this aoe before transition is just wipe fest.
Add 5 stacks of grevious too 😄
I saw a disc priest complaining about it with a +28
Some dude said he did higher key of that and he pulled 9K hps on his priest. Which is kinda insane.
We tried only 19.. can't imagine 28 lol.
I'd like to see 28 key with this week's affixes, seriously.
I guess it's fine. There's many dungeons. Could be a bragging right: "sup, I smashed 25 on CoeN on fortified easily" 😛
The priest I saw in FW was saying he was doing 10K hps
If i use shoulders, should i still do garrote after vanish or should i go vanish - envenom - mutilate - envenom?
Eh, disc strong again huh. The heals who did 9k was disc also.
Holy for life!
I think envenom for sure. So much damage.
Oh it was a 24 he did the 10K hps
Yeah, feels like i should be doing that still, not sure though
I can see barrier + spam shield, that's strong. Holy has HW: salvation but you don't use it in M+, so probably very hard to pull high numbers.
Well with leggos and damage and such right now, disc is pretty stronk
In BfA people go from resto druid to disc, so..
pff
like this method MDI player who resto'd all the way
now playing disc coz it's op
@abstract moth if using shoulders, next depends on Subterfuge or NS. I play subterfuge. Vanish Env garrote mut Env mut env.
Oh, yea. Same. Thanks for the tip, gonna sneak in garrote there.
garrote is in the first 3 sec after vanish.
Yea, forgot. Gotta cast it.
Yeah i use subterfuge, that makes sense. Thank you
It depends on the lvl 30 talent you are using honestly. With subterfuge use garrote, with night stalker use envenom.
When manually downloading simc addon to beta, how accurate is the state weight when ran through Raidbots?
@lone junco Yep all good.
I really wish there was some different window that would present mentions O _O
tiny little icons for default frame is shitty
Sure are.
Yeah but, I want another window entirely =\
Might code something for that hmmm
!guide
oh if you want to sim your character, raidbots is the fastest way
ok so I need some help
?
so I was doing antorus norm, got the 4set now, but to use 4set I have to replace mantle with set shoulders
is sephuz and insignia a good combo
Yes
Should SIM your collections to make sure your item levels don't push something different to the top.
use the raidbots top gear function or the addon simpermut to sim all your options at once.
yeah i will do that I just wanted to see another thing from u guys
Sim all your gear Combos AND talent combos
the guy I was doing the raid with said that Nightstalker was better than subterfuge (talent)
idk
there's no way anyone could give a definite answer to that because it depends on your gear and legendaries.
also do I go elaborate planning now I have the 4set
Hi, is there a pandemic timer for garrote?
5.4s
also whats a pandemic timer
7.2s rupture
rupture is based on the cps spent when you cast it the first time
reee
I'm looking at the rotation....
Why wouldn't I use Toxic Blade before rupture ?
When you refresh Rupture Icon Rupture before it expires, the duration that was left is added to the new Rupture DoT, up to a maximum of 30% of the original duration. You can safely refresh a 5 Combo Point Rupture when it has 7.2 seconds or less remaining. Deeper Stratagem Icon Deeper Stratagem allows for 6 Combo Point Ruptures, which last 28 seconds. 6 Combo Point Ruptures can be refreshed safely when they have 8.4 seconds or less remaining. @hollow rose
toxic blade does nothing to a rupture and you essentially waste a gcd
Poison Bomb
So use it pre envenom only I am guessing?
yes you dont want to refresh your bleeds during toxic blade. Aim for 2 - 3 envenoms over its duration
but still make sure your bleeds dont fall off the target. Have to be aware of the toxic blade cooldown and prepare for it.
Makes sense. I was thinking that it might be worth it earlier to try and get more in per fight, but the logic makes sense.
2 seems easy enough without Marked for Death
2 is normal. 3 is with shoulder lvl crit
if you can only do 1, you either were low E when you started, or have 0 crit and have to mut 2 times per
3 is like, during lust
@wild stone are you using finishers at 4+ cp
Is Blindside or Elaborate planning simming higher for everyone? Master Poisoner + Toxic Blade + DoT snapshot seems like it should be doing more. Or is the snapshot wiped ( or not applied ) on every reapplication?
finish at 4 or 5
Okay coming from feral, we never use less than 5
dont mutilate at 4 cp it is a dire mistake
Regardless of the talent setup I simmed highest with MP+TB+PB
I've had no luck with blindside, but I also have shit for gear
try to clip envenom at the end of EP
but if you do that over and over you will run out of steam
so sometimes you have to back off to just the envenom buff for a cycle or two
kind of have to judge if you are going to be able to keep up EP or not
blindside is not yet that powerful / i guess it will come with gear in bfa. there you will see its power in executephases where high dps is needed
blindside seemed to be competitive at 120
y
at least during our preliminary sims
probably because no tier (master poisoner loses value) and lower stat scaling at 120 (harder to maintain EP)
but to answer you pandemic and garrote questions use notter´s insane nice wa for not overcapping empowered ones aswell
Debuffs tracker for all rogue specs
goes for bleed spec aswell
Subterfuge empowerment tracking seems a bit fucky since 8.0 with Notter's stuff.
I am just seeing trouble with how blindside produces more overall DPS with the increase in energy per combo point.
sup is not and buff anymore so it sucks to track
Subterfuge empowerment seems broken entirely.
i use a a timer for it / aka out of stealth i have a 3 sek timer
blindside is great on the proc
yeah my notters broke.
Are you still using Mutilate in the execute window then, relying on the proc? Or always using on proc and always using in execute window?
@strange python did you delete some of it ?
in ex with blindside you only use dispatch
guys I have 30% haste now.. I know Im supposed to go crit now but
probably somehow
uh
prolly around the same i have so you see versa becomes more strong than mastery
but that was my sim
when mastery gets a higher weight than crit, to answer your question. But thats unlikely
ok im running the sim for stat weights now
but the last time I did it i didnt know what i was looking at 😦
mastery is probably your lowest.
link ill help you m8
It will say like Crit: 2.75
which means each point in crit increases your dps by 2.75.
what sim you using ? i normally just use raidbots
Higher number = more value from that stat.
so will this spec be good for bfa?
So ilvl, then haste, then crit.
8⃣
ok what does this mean
It means you get that number of DPS per 1 increase in that stat.
Like the bottom says.
ahhh I was in mythic+ gearset
looking sek
So yeah, ilvl is king for you right now, then look for haste/crit.
ish id say / best is ofc if you have haste on it and even crit. but yeah crit versa is ok
he means agility is highest which comes with item level.
since crit is close to main stat there only 0,3 deff
so an upgade of +5 agility would give me a dps increase of 3.02 x 5?
Ish yeah. Depending on the stats on the new piece as well, it could be more or less than the 15.1
but agility is not the only stat on an item.
Wait is ilvl really the main thing now? I swear it was stats like haste and crit >.>
Depends on your weights..
If you get a slightly higher piece that has the 2 lower stats in your sims replacing one with the 2 higher weights it wont necessarily be an upgrade
what are all these memelaw rogues doing in here? O.o
Didnt realize we weren't allowed out of our cage 🙃
well i think its just that im 219 so
not that high
Im only recently getting into normals and mythic +15's
@lean hill more like i didn't realize normal people were let IN our cage.
Lol I was sin main more than outlaw or sub during legion
😂 Hey now we want to learn all specs for rogue. Play the class not the spec right?!
@lone junco and for smaller pulls, just dot up 1 target and fok ct spam?
