Is it better to stack Shrouded Suffocation?

all the subt and outlaw rogues comin' in now w/ their nerfs? ๐
a whole 5% nerf. lol
Fetid might as well be the EX fight.
if you say so
ST dingers
apparently the nerf to some other really good Sub trait is whats killing them, I only read their channel a bit so I dunno the details
850k dmg in 25 sec
ezpz
Galecaller's though > _> yikes
What gets me is that without BL his DMG was the same.
@.leo their goto trait got nerfed by 10%
bits got nerfed 10%
how sin lookin with sub/outlaw nerfs
sin new top dog?
Its kinda the same if they would nerf SS, I think a lot of people would roll something else
Okay so i checked the pins, does it mean you should open up with a double garrote for the extra 5 seconds?
greed.
assassin was behind both, now sub and outlaw got a slight nerf, why would assass suddenly be at top?
?
we'lll see
wasn't that bad to begin with
Noobe why the lack of DMG difference between Lusted window and non-lust window? > _>
Sin was always in a strong position, the other specs were spiking higher thats why everyone flocked on them
its not like sin was a dead spec
people just see the word "nerf" and freak out, without actually look at the numbers haha
well. the opener exang is a short rupture. due to g r g mut r
spiking higher? it wasnt high spikes. i looked at top 100 dps wowlogs for taloc and MOTHER. 22/100 taloc were rogues, 51/100 for MOTHER, not one assassin
pandemic adds based on cps of the first application not the ssecond
they were better for entire fight, not burst
Yeah but I expect the Garrote peek to be higher.
because everyone went sub
Yeah I meant that this patch they were higher, not that they do better burst.
Don't know why I expected that though.
it had a slightly better edge to it'
not that it was omg amazing stronger
Yeah Taloc does that.
afk wife aggro
this specific patch was Sub > Outlaw > Sin according to logs, so everyone assumed Sin was garbage, but the spec is strong compared to other dps in the game
SIN is also better for prog. in general so long a fight doesn't box us out due to mechanics.
sin nerfs. im rolling dh. ayy
nty
I'll stay sin even if they nerf, I like the spec
nobody said sin nerf lol
Only sub&outlaw nerf
hum, I was answering to noobe's comment
ah
tfw u get the gronk wq shoulders again and its sick cause thats less respeccing
Lol same.
Noobe, what if you spec master assassin and apply fresh garrote/rupture then exsang, vanish, and wait out the almost 100% crit exsang? I assume that isn't comparable to the damage you do with your other stuff during that window but worth thinking about ๐
Subterfuge is full duration multiplier buff of the garrote that lets you cast 3. . Ma. Is 4sec 50% crit.
Dots tick 2sec apart.
No I mean you stay in stealth the entire duration so the whole thing gets 100% crit
So you get 2. Or 4 with exsang.
10/10 not worth
Like garrote mut mut rupture vendetta vanish. /afk
actually sounds like a fun rotation
Exs In there
Memer things have happened.
If that were a thing we would have done it with shoulders last tier.
Yeah, probs
Can you imagine that shit. "Rog. Where you going. ".
I'm doing my vanish rotation. Need 10more sec.
Stack haste mastery 0 crit. Gl.
Anyway. Subterfuge makes it works.
im at just 400 crit right now, might be worth a shot ๐ค
Nah you'd still need crit. But stack activated +agi trinkets
that sounds great for pvp
true, the perfect bm
Shit where did he go why am I dying what noooo
What are the best trinkets? besides fathoms
sadly there arent any garrote rupture pvp talents
fathoms isnt the best anymore. check bloodmallet
Ty ty
fathoms is stillt better than many 370s at 355
just coming back to wow dont really know any of the sites
Well shit seems i have the top 2
Once we get past balance. If SS stays alive, I'll snip out pieces of logs for a guide section.
which one is the most updated site? cause everyone tells different shit
herodmg bloodmallet
Most websites that have charts/etc. have times that they were updated last, so use the most recently updated website and make sure you know what you are looking at.
like, there
What site is that?
bloodmallet
ty!
so harlens loeaded dice 340 is better then contruct overcharger 365.. says the lost
list
Yeah.
The personal SIM uses your current gear/stat/etc. whereas the charts are going to be using a more standard set of gear so that you can have a chart that makes sense.
Always SIM for yourself and follow those results.
you know
without ss
I don't know if our class is even functional
spec*
Maybe triple rupture stacking traits for m+ and just spread rupture as much as possible
but then we'd also prolly have to get triple of those mut traits for ST, yikes
Yeah it's hinged on SS pretty hard.
Though at the same time Double Dose has been seen making its' rise and while it blows that generics might be good, they still are.
3x Double Dose + MP sounds fun Kappa
16% haste its good for sin nowdays? how much its considered good?
depends on stats and setup, and what you want to accomplish. But I believe 16% haste is fine for exsang builds, sim yourself
I believe haste is more value than agi for exsang, at least on my character
at 11 or 12% haste
@magic fossil most top log sins ive seen had 15-17%, so its probably pretty good at this point in the expansion
thank both of you guys, i'll try, those 5% nerf in sub are scaring the shit out of me
I wouldn't fret too much
I think I am at 15-16% haste https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/316923750073499648/487798321335762950/unknown.png
Sub will still be better than sin in it's current state
for pure ST
patchwerk
the 5% nerf won't affect that
Cleave sin has always been better
so no change there either
Well you guys shouldnt be happy about the nerf to sub/sin
more people will play assassination then
no ones happy as far as I know
new sin rogue here.
sin new FotM spec
sin is low key op in m+, so the fact that outlaw and sub are out of the spotlight is worrysome
cuz SS will be on radar for nerf, but unlike sub and outlaw
if ss gets nerfed, sin is ded class
Testing out CT and yeah it's fucking nuts dps
@safe matrix Why would I be more happy about more people spamming this fucking channel at pin questions?
hey
"Well you guys shouldnt be happy about the nerf to sub/sin" @civic palm
hOw Do I KnOw wHaT mY bIs Is?
Mayne I just said no one was happy
whats that ss bug everyone is talking about?
Im new sin rogue gais wuts best stats? and traits? do rogues use daggers? whats best race? if I get a boner when I poop am I gay?
what even is ss?
cant wait
lol
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation
Currently still bugged. Applying 1-3 Garrotes in Subterfuge, and then applying another Garrote outside of Subterfuge, all of your Subterfuge-empowered Garrotes lose the Shrouded Suffocation multiplier, However the Subterfuge multiplier still remains.
Advised to not cast unbuffed Garrotes to avoid losing SS trait damage bonuses until this has been fixed.
YOU GO EVEN FURTHER BEYOND
why is my garrote uptime? why is rupture so important? is dagger in the back good?
shrouded suffication
what is my opener
whats ur guys opinion on sin in m+, cause i feel like its performing the best out of all three specs on high key
"why is my garrote uptime?"
yes
dungeons that offer big pulls of non elites, outlaw performs better
I'll do you one better
but in pulls of 2-5 ish, sin is better
With that bug, WHERE is the best word. Clearly
HOW is my garrote uptime
talking about pushing high keys, where ur not going to be pulling big trash packs
uh, yeah. roughly, 21-24k
30-40k
wtb a 3rd ss trait
depending on bufgfs
40k? wtf
@safe matrix I legit misread that shouldn't because there wasn't a fucking apostrophe.
up to 30k if i press my buttons really hard
yeah, 30k is plausible with lust and potions
if I smoke mooonrockls I can do infinite billion
I heard a ilvl 345 PvP dagger can be obtained. Does anyone know where?
Even though it's only an extra 30 dps I feel like playing exsang just because fuck the SS bug..
Amount of times I've overwritten it by garroting something else.
yes
@real night do arena's with Assn or sub loot specialization
Is Sin more viable after hotfixes?
and you can choose a weapon as a turn in
anyone know the ideal time to use galecaller in the pull rotation?
if you get to 1400 ish arena rating in 2 or 3 you can upgrade it to 350
and if you get to 1600 ish
I just have it bound into my toxic blade relaxv.
uh.. prolly best to put it on it's own button for exsang relaxv
since no cooldowns line up well with it
I've never played exsang, (well not since EN) - hence why that's what I'm currently thinking about lol
thanks brother
this is only for exsang though
note G R G works there as well if you need to refresh RUP earlier.
g r g feels good
idk about anyone else but I simply like how that combination of skills flows
i probably want galecaller buff when i apply bleeds right? but idk how haste affects exsanguinate tbh
so i just get more ticks very very fast
also gives small amounts of ER
ill mess with it for a bit, maybe after second garrote, and before exsanguinate
it has no external gcd attached to it
oh shit right
10, 1min cd
but the idea is you want gale to be within the entire frame of your exsang's vanish garrote
whats better for st actually, stat pot or bursting blood?
so don't pop it too early
@main blaze the PvP dagger reward is end of week? Or do you need to purchase it with conquest points?
you just get it
sim it, different based on your stats midder, but I believe bb is ever so slightly better in ST, by less than 50 ST. And agi is better by landfolds in aoe
No don't do that, what I said, pushes 3rd EX too far back.
its like a end of match drop, its also when you get 500 conquest it just gives you one based on loot spec
Caeriss
that's not true
the 500 conquest
you get to choose
between an axe and a dagger
regardless of spec
at least, I did
Thats wrong, when you have gotten 500 conquest you go to the vendor and complete a quest, where you choose the reward
yep
As neverr said
i got to choose between dagger and hammer myself
Loot specc is irrelevant
Ah the item changed on the UI based on loot spec
yes
it does do that tho
idk why
maybe to make people not feel like they are about to be cheated
It didnt for me, showed an axe always ๐ค
but you can still get a dagger from end of match loot in arena
Yeah
Mine is an axe...
You get to choose
Could be an axe, this is heresy saying it in this channel but I only play outlaw in pvp
๐ค
assassin feels too cp starved
for me at least
how much haste do you guys have ?
lots of setup involved
I said I had 11% earlier, but I just checked and I have 16^
16%*
anyone know assa pvp traits?
taking 5% off the top parses of sub and outlaw makes ass either top or close to it on everything
looks like the other two specs still have the advantage on pure ST (Taloc)
We still aiming to stack 3 garrote traits with assa?
@gray sierra i use system shock creeping venom and flying daggers
but that was pre nerf awhile ago not sure if anything changed
What are prefered talents for m+?
just normal talents
Anyone know if Exang is viable? Curious to try
I only see TB being used though
It's my highest sim so yeah I'm using it.
exsanguinate on cd till vanish is coming back up?
I guess im somewhat happy with the notes. Since I got removed from a m+ today before it even started because i was assa and not sub xD
Anyone know why when i use garrote from stealth i only end up with 3 combo points? I have 2 SS traits so shoudnt it be 5 CP after garrote
only dmg stacks
Ohhh the cp part doesnt?
"
-The damage part of all traits stacks, for example Shrouded Suffocation doesn't grant an extra combo point per stack but grants more damage per stack."
from the faq in the pins ๐
Yeah it would be a little op if those parts of the traits stacked
i have lost 6k damage on my dots from SS
unpopular opinion: outlaw nerf a bit rough
rip m+ spec
st gonna be garbage
is the hotfix live?
The hotfix is live but the class tuning is on tuesday
Class tuning is the 20% Nerf + 5% dmg
which includes sub and outlaw nerfs
Which is next Tuesday
Guys would i be best stacking the middle ring of my gear with Heed my call/Overwhelming power or just take one of each?
๐
Overwhelming power sucks take heed my call
^
really?
Think how many times you take dmg in a dungeon or raid
someone said 4% assa nerf comes but cant find it anywhere is this true?
@ocean nebula Where did you hear that?
Outlul channel
Why would they nerf assa 
does anyone else know what input you need for raidbots to use maghar orc? or is it unsupported
can i link a stream? Just look at this assa's damage โค
We generally only allow people to link streams if its part of the discussion or people ask for it.
but out of the blue? probably not
ok no worries!
show me the big damage
Garrote is rather silly xD https://gyazo.com/a89550ca880f7d4be087170e63e8c791
are we running exsanguinate in ST now?
ss is gonna get nerfed i think
If SS is getting nerfed, it's not documented with the changes happening on the 11th
World of Warcraft News, with guides, patch notes, previews of upcoming content, and more!
Do we have anyone in here who can do log reviews?
After the nerfs, is Sin looking like the best PvP spec?
hey guys, with 5% nerf to outlaw and sub, will we be top?
back to assassination for bfa again ๐ค
Do I need triple ace for it to be good?
"we"
Snek outlaw wasn't nerf3d
Something wrong with yellow?
So outlaw still the spec to go with? Because I really enjoy assassination more but for the raid i wanna make sure im in the right spec.
the spec ur best at is the right spec
Everything I'm reading basically says they're about equal and it comes down to what you're optimized for and what you play better
I need to reroll bm hunter then. To be "optimized"
After the nerf the 3 speccs should be alle in the same dps range. So play the spec u like. For me its assa
!stats
Assassination Stat weights:
Single target: haste > crit > mastery > vers
Multi target: crit > mastery > vers >= haste
Note: Simming will always result in more accurate results.
i know this may be a multi answered question, but with 3 suffocated, does toxic blade still overtake exsang?
sim it
yeah, i figured, just didnt know if there was a cut and dry answer
DoT gameplay so good 
hows the playstyle of assa rogue compared to outlaw?
slower probably
slower definetely
@tight anvil exs sim 100dps higher for me. almost the same stat weights
oh no ๐ฆ
but tb is more forgiving
but then i think about exs vendetta empowered garrotes with 3ss and start to wonder
Ex would be fantastic for bursting down adds imo
lul

gotta minmax that 2 dps
Exsang wants looots of haste
Tried out assn in a +5 man some pulls I was at like 25k+ it was insane
What pushes Exsang over the edge once you've got 3x SS? Just haste? Currently rocking 22% crit 14% haste with 3x SS and TB simming about 200dps higher
And I'm sure I wasnt like playing it on point either
poison meme or crimson memepest
Really nice to be able to melt priority targets
actually, you probably had 3 ss traits and garrote did all of it
I have 3x SS as 20/14/20/9 and as you can see they are the same

fuckload of verse from all this outlaw gear >_>
yeah im only 3.5 vers and 25 mastery
How do we open up in AOE packs as assn with SS traits?
i kept all my haste matery stuff that was bad for outlaw and kept em for this day, feels good
14% haste not sure if thats low or high tho
i was at like 8% in outlul
@grim wolf you want to apply all 3 garrote in subterfuge window on opener. Dont worry about over capping CP the dmg increase is worth it. IF RUNNING CT: From there rupture 2 after Fok spam. even if you only get 2-3CP ruptures down its still fine go into CT/garrote refresh. IF RUNNING PB: rupture 3 with 4-5CP FoK spams, apply garrote when 2nd add you garroted on pull is at 5s left on garrote, reapply rupture
Sargeras isn't grinding very hard, cuz my times are asscheeks
I don't even have a kings' rest posted 
do one +10 and its easy to pull ahead of most people
i did one lel
but it scored lower than my +4
cuz it took us 2.5 hours
and we 2 chested the +4
er no
we 1 chested
still a better score
i did my 10 in 66 min. so it was worth more than my +6's
yeah we might try to grind through some +9s. we've got like 3 or 4 keys
@prime stirrup you talking about aoe pulls or garrote a single mob 3 times??
if you have 2cp which feels like best start for opener i garrote rupture garrote then into rotation
still get pandemic on SS garrote and you dont over cap CP
I thought you were supposed to vendetta before rupture?
what's the reasoning behind garroting twice? does it add a bit more time to it I guess?
i personally dont, becasue i vanish on garrote reapply. so i just let it and tb tick into both
you want to pandemic on subterfuge SS garrote. 18+18 is worse than 23+23
so by doing two garrotes on opener you get subterfuge garrote ticks for 46 seconds instead of 38
Pardon?
36**
Pandemic is 30% not 100%.
you can apply on pull for the 30% to be added to it
Making the longest a Garrote can last be 24 seconds.
thats why garrote garrote is better than garrote1x
you instantly pandemic the subterfuge garrote
Yeah but where are you numbers coming from?
Is Sin the way to go now since outlaw and sub nerfs hit?
No.
"-Pandemic this term relates to reapplying buffs/debuffs. When a debuff (like garrote) is refreshed, its remaining time (up to a cap of 30% max duration, so 5.4s for garrote) will be added to the new buff."
Wait until the TCing is done and see where the numbers come out.
Mizerok is right, its 24sec of pandemic
Yeah that's good ๐
LOL
getting accepted into M+'s
rank1 raiding parses insta declined for +4 M
FeelsBadMan
muhWeek1Parses
Gotta get whatever edge you can to get into groups that hopefully don't blow ass.
also raiding != m+ skill a lot of the time
even those blow ass
I said hopefully > _>
I decided that the 4 man premade "boosting" +5 keys would be a good idea.
I topped the dps meters by over 8%, the tank couldn't keep aggro nor pull the right amount of mobs and i'm still convinced the healer went afk regularly
ok
Honestly, it's almost like ilvl isn't an indicator of skill or something... :^)
haHA
Sin rogues are incredibly good in keys right now
all 3 rogue specs are
shroud + ToT + interrupts galore. I think we will be a fixture in high keys
imo the top 3 melee in m+ are the three rogue specs lol
DH's
in the 10 i just did we ran sin dh and frost mage
yeah well if you already have 1 rogue it loses value
but 1 rogue of any spec is better than any other melee
frost mage would do largely better if the pulls were as stupid as the sub trash+boss stacked is

i was pb not ct
haven't pushed a 10 yet don't feel like wasting hours just yet but im at 600+ io score just from 2-3chesting all the 5s and 6s
been playing mostly sub but sometimes sin if I get bored
exs + ct tho
i havent tried exs yet, I might give it a go on the 9key
yea i did a 10 SoB, took about the same time
except i did it on tuesday
and it was painful
shts hard atm
Doesnt +10 have another affix
Yeah the health pool aint too bad atm.
Hm we managed to get to +8 but its tough. Might not manage a 10
just w/ fort and everyones low ilvl the trash is annoying
i mean... someone did a +16
took then 4 hours
but they did it
think another happened for +16 took hour n 15
Yeah and theres like a million trash that just casts for 30 min in the pools
i cant imagine
being in the same dungeon for 4h ours
highest timed key in the world atm is a 13
Dedication
ohboi
can someone help me with a raidbot question
i dont know if its right but raidbot has my DPS double to what it actually is when i play
link the raidbots sim
It's probably you performing poorly or having a setting incorrect.
Raidbots assumes perfect play 5 minutes single target with optimal buffs.
i got that but almost double?
Just gotta practice ๐คท
If you have logs someone might be willing to look over them and point out errors
hai lia o/
ill work on getting some logs today
Hello 
k... is the bunny still around? i havent seen him in forever
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
Notter is around ye.
A bunch.
Just bring up Dota.
maybe i just keep missing him, not in here as much as i use to be
He's usually in offtopic
didnt come in here for the last... 5ish months
Yeah just hang out with us degens in off-topic, he'll pop up sooner or later.
You running Exs in M+ guys?
10 hours LOL
Could do with a energy re-gen buff
is CT the go to in m+?
I ran pb in freehold +10
but we were only pulling 2 mobs at a time
so ct wouldnt have done shit for me
but maybe in lower ones where you pull full packs?
Even in full packs if they are stacked I think PB would be better? Just my 2 cents
CT feels like ass to me
i dont like the CT rotations
thats what feels like ass to me
PB account for 3% of my dmg in my +10 which is fine with me

shansky, if you are ever in a group that does a gazillion mobs per pull, ct is so fulfulling to use
Subterfuge is annoying in M+ when tank chain pulls and there's no time to stealth
are the other two better then?
If I subterfuge garrote everything in the pull that pretty much does my most damage
There were some talks in beta about using MFD+NS for applying CT on pulls, still requires stealth.

is anyone using exsg build or only toxic blade everywhere?
Check WCL and see > _>
maybe this is a dumb question but why does shrouded suffocation sim so high? doesnt it only buff garrote for a small duration of any fight?
not rly
it buffs the garrote in vanish wich is very much dmg cause its a dot u have to apply
and since or able to use 2 garrotes in opener with ss and then 2 more in vanish its super dmg
right but even with subt your looking at what 3 full dots a boss maybe 4?
Xd well u will wonder how much dmg it does
tru
cause with 3 ss your garrote dot will be the hardest hitting dmg input on boss and adds
combined with rupture its like mental lvl of dot dmg
how do i play when in m+ 3-5 mob grp with mfd + ct build (no ss trait). do i still garrote 3 targets, then start to rupture 3 targets, then ct?
or do i mfd into ct, garrote 2 targets, spam fok till i rupture 2 targets, spam fok ct?
Pretty sure subterfuge will still beat out MfD for m+, you can set up 3 garrotes immediately, spread some ruptures, then spam CT and refresh dots as needed
Best to sim it on hectic add cleave or something i guess
subterfuge is not on the same row as mfd
Oh yeah good point
Im drunk, ignore me
Hows your energy if you're going mfd rather than vigor?
i cant garrote 3x, rupture 3x, and spam ct
Friendship ended with SUB & OUTLUL:
Now ASS is my best friend
@here
I'll miss my 46k deadshot crits
Hello, what spec is this?
Assassination!
What's that?
Poison blood
Proves that being in the middle of the pack before mythic is a good thing
Since all the top ones always get nerfed
i dont see anything about clipping for elaborate planning in any guides anymore, is that no longer a thing?
welp rerolling here cuz outlaw is ded
๐ข
This is so sad, can we get 50 dabs? Like that SMASH button !
Seems to be a trend with outlaw and new expansions
god damn
Hello friends :))))
free v bucks
In Antorus
and nighthold, and en
Soon to be Uldir
EN was OL
for like a week maybe
After that it was Sin
similar to now
Dream
goold old ap days 
Rewarded for sticking with the lowest APM spec ๐
Hey guys I heard this is where to go after Tuesday where can I put my sleeping bag?
storm evi is poggers
Hello yes is this the only remaining channel after tuesday?
How is Assassination AoE?
Shit
With CT its fine
Does exsang work for all targets that you dotted or just one?
Can keep up
Sure if u wanna vanish
Cant do that every pull but most dungeons dont have those kinds of pulls yet
CT carries pretty decently
watch drjayfisto streaming and you'll see some crazy shit on m+ @main blaze
With other bleeds
Hes playing assa?
nope, mage frost but the pulls ... oh the pulls
Sorry quick q, with SS do we just vanish on cooldown with 2 garrotes instead of trying to line up vanish with Vendetta?
I do 3x garrote then ct and spam evisc?
80k deeps pulls like a madman
You can try to spam evisc but it wont go well for you
Is 3 times SS needed for decent DMG?
yay we didnt get da nerfs
Sorry for the stupid question but what's CT
Crimson Tempest
Ah right ofc
Computed Tomography
I'm slightly confused, ravenholdt guide says 2 garrotes with subterfuge but everyone's saying 3.. has it changed slightly?
anyone know the best sin pvp trait is?
Ok, what is SS?
Is triple SS still the best trait despite being bugged?
Yeah the bug isnt that bad
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation
Currently still bugged. Applying 1-3 Garrotes in Subterfuge, and then applying another Garrote outside of Subterfuge, all of your Subterfuge-empowered Garrotes lose the Shrouded Suffocation multiplier, However the Subterfuge multiplier still remains.
Advised to not cast unbuffed Garrotes to avoid losing SS trait damage bonuses until this has been fixed.
the bug is only really apparent in m+
Bois, how bright is our future comparing to other 2specs?
all 3 are basically equal
For Uldir
my comment stands
I will play it but i think other 2 are a bit better or atleast higher in deeps
honestly depends on the fight tho
I am happy with playstyle since its moreless same as in legion
im just sad it got so much slower
yeah i miss my high haste ๐ฆ
Assn does well on nearly all the fights, Mother is the only one that has a nice timed dps increase for sub
I just hope we wont be like far behind or anything like that
mother for sub was actually a really fun fight
while others get nerfed 5% across the board, sin stands tall
How do i sim myself with two different specs?
Does exsang work for all targets or just the current one?
one
sin was scaling with gear much better than 2 otehr specs even before nerf
might be a dumb question, but if I'm running CT, the idea is to just keep it up as much as possible and only Envenom when all 3 bleeds are up yes?
You asked that early and got a response then as well
so sin will be only spec when you hit 370 ilvl
copy = name
spec = specname
talents = 214908214091264097
@knotty oak
Sorry didnt see the response
@balmy condor im sry that didnt help me alot, Im still pretty new to simming myself. Only know how to use raidbots to a certain extent..
you would have to learn how the simulationcraft language works to a minimal level
raidbots won't help you on this one sadly
Raidbots does not allow simming multiple specs afaik
need to add those lines of code and put it into advanced
raidbots has an advanced section
if you know how the language works you can code it in yourself
I sent you a dm, we can handle it there
so is assa top spec for rogue now ? ๐
assa = sub = outlaw
hey guys do you use garrote on cd when you have 1 or more SS traits?
or only when subterfuge is up
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
Read read read
the 'simple' way to compare two specs with the gear u have is to copy the code from simc addon and just do two sims on raidbot lol
read it but it only tells me what to do in opener. and also i wanna understand why im doing that
thats why i asked
is exsang actually better now than TB?
Depends on your gear and the encounter.
mythic+?
They've close, and if they touch Shrouded Suffocation EX is dead.
Why do you garr rupt garr in exsang opener?
EX is probably better in M+ at higher keys due to needing targeted burst DPS.
It's explained in the sheet Joockeee.
allright thanks a lort
With SS and TB do we still line up vendetta with vanish or just vanish on CD for the empowered garrotes, I would assume the second
*lot
Oh sorry will check
CT is probably better if you are pulling 3+ targets.
where can i find the sheet?
Vanish and Vendetta are gonna line up due to their 2min CDs.
It's a little further up.
alright
I dont honestly get why we do that opener in exsang, can anyone explain? Read the image but didnt help that much
atm in higher keys you might be pulling very small groups making PBOMB better.
I am just going to explain it again as I wrote it in the sheet > _>
But you want maximum duration DoTs before you use Exsanguinate.
Oh so i do it do extend garrote duration?
Yeah, same with Rupture.
But is that when i have 3 ss traits?
When you have 1+SS.
As the TB opener i do 2x garr then rupture as I have 1x SS trait atm
What one of all those links to press even?
Pins and Guides everwhere in this discords
Pardon?
What of those links in updates tc thing can i find the answer then?
As the TB opener i got told to do 2x garr then rupture as I have 1x SS trait atm
In that image it says garr rupture garr?
G G R or G R G ends up in the same place so long you don't have terrible execution.
The goal is to get a fully empowered Garrote (from Subterfuge (talent) and Shrouded Suffocation) as it will lead to better damage.
Ah so its mostly the same?
It's entirely the same.
yes
Yeah the first one changes things.
what do with gems when haste is highest simming stat for ST and lowest simming stat for multitarget
Pass that is just more gas.
Ok ty
Crit is a safe gem.
For ST? Seems like you need more haste bud > _>"
yeah ST, it sucks lmao
poor outlaw rogues ๐ฆ
Guess i'll have two sets of gear
So we should go assa for m+ now after nerfs then? Thoughts?
I kinda think so...
Or will sub still be good?
sub is more beneficial if you play around it, but assa is hella strong atm in higher keys
yeah but whenever i think about sub, i need to puke
most horribly designed spec in the game (imo of course)
then you try deeperstrat, dark shadow and master of shadows with 5+ adds on every big guy you pull
Okey, anyone got a guide to assa in m+? Talents, azerite traits etc? Stat prio is crit mastery in m+ for assa if i remember correctly
feelsgoodman
afaik its pretty much the same Joockeee
Ah okey
apart from stat prio
Hard exsang is strong tho, and im TB in singletarget etm
cant think of a world that rhymes with haste
Atm *
waste
haste is kinda worthless for a lot of targets
not that wrong tho, haste until you start capping energy (and wasting it) ๐ค
Exsang is better then tb to Blow targets in m+ what i understood?
exsang is a nice fire-and-forget ability
so is TB though
tb you have to still keep going for the full effect, risking other dots falling off on other targets
most boring talent y2k
i hate playing with tb in m+
why?
it feels so slow
actually not sure how to use it on trash D: do i still use it if there's 3+ mobs?
Feels like with Sin you can have a lot more control of you aoe in higher keys with like sanguine etc.
you can also screw yourself mightily with how bugged SS is atm ๐ฆ
checked on some dummies and 3 garrotes were doing like 80% more than 4 garrotes
ty blizz
Isnt TB considered a DPS loss in large pack pulls? I just remember being told that once in a blue moon
If it is the case then exs would probably be the better choice
fuck a nerf
did i understand the aoe rotation correctly? Rupture on 3 targets, garrote diffrent targets when avaible and apply new ct when around 3 sec. Fan of knifes and envenoms as fillers?
o
?
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation
Currently still bugged. Applying 1-3 Garrotes in Subterfuge, and then applying another Garrote outside of Subterfuge, all of your Subterfuge-empowered Garrotes lose the Shrouded Suffocation multiplier, However the Subterfuge multiplier still remains.
Advised to not cast unbuffed Garrotes to avoid losing SS trait damage bonuses until this has been fixed.
is it fixed? I tested it and my targets get 6k damage every 1.7 sec from garrote, it ussualy is 1.5k or something
is the exsang build better than the normal build? cant find the other one in the sims or somewhere else
or that applies only if you apply on the same target? which is dumb if you already have buffed garrote
ya its still bugged
Apply to 1 target, check damage, then apply to 4 targets and check damage.
if i apply 3 to 3 targets it ticks for 5kish if i apply a non buffed to a fourth guy they drop to 2kish
so it drops for all of them
Still fucked
ye all 3 buffed drop in dmg
damn
how do you play the exang build in m+?
I tried it, it seems nice, but also with CT instead of PB
does exang work for ct too?
not sure, maybe for your target
Ohnoooooooooo
is assassination top now? or is it still below sub and outlaw
on my char, assa sims the best but that depends on your gear
well i dont have any daggers so rip
well, outlaw is the best for you then 
any recommended streamers to watch for sin?
Incarnated
Is SS required for exsang to be better than toxic blade=
extremely likely to be the case @_@
Best sin azerite pvp traits?
do we use the pandemic refresh on the exsanguinated bleeds?
Can some1 explain what pandemic refresh means ? hehe
"-Pandemic this term relates to reapplying buffs/debuffs. When a debuff (like garrote) is refreshed, its remaining time (up to a cap of 30% max duration, so 5.4s for garrote) will be added to the new buff."
hello should i use BtE with only 1 or 2 cp to proc deadshot or always cast it with 5 even if you dont have Ruthless Precision
thats why you double garrote on opener
See many people going assas in myth+ aswell now, whats the deal with that?
wait wrong spec
I like sin out of all specs, so i didnt bother going outlaw or sub. its always been good in keys cause multi dot = op
so exang is better than TB with only 3 SS or is 2 still good to run exang
you deal really consistent dps on multi mob pulls
yeah sin is nice, i can do near 20k dps on 3 targets sometimes
I currently am, but Im probably going to start testing MFD in high keys later today
Yeah you weirdo > _>
your secondary stats seem pretty low, besides that crit obviously
thats cause all my gear is multispec
and sub/outlaw wanted big krit
its ok i got a fat galecallers
so could someone answer is exsang is only worth if you have 3x SS
When mastery is your highest stat as sin
One or more Shrouded Suffocation powers for Toxic Blde
(...)
Vanish when Garrote runs out when talented into subterfuge
Garrote twice
do i understand this right, 2 globals for garrote in a row?
to extend due to pandemic
you think assa is gonna be the best spec now?
so it is vanish - garrote - unused gcd - garrote ?
@agile geode Its all about the content you are running, I thin sin will definitely move up the m+ ladder, and hopefully raid ladder too
But we will have to see how impactful the sub/OL nerfs are. RIght now they are over tuned.
Under tuned.. i dont know. they are too far ahead of other classes atm is what im saying
Warum, think, if specced in Subterfuge, you can do Garrote twice without losing the GCD
Since it has no CD for 3secs
3xss is broken
I wish i could get the shrine hat for 2xSS but im kinda done running m0's hope its in my chest one of these weeks
but if we use the 3th second of subterfuge for refreshing the subterfuge-garrote uptime expands by 1s. don't know if it is worth
3th > _>
LOL
i want a pin saying feelsgood to be underwhelming at start of expansion
I farmed the SS chest so much and I got it from a Azerite Emissary Cache LUL
Is there any guide for exang already?
and a lmao next to outlaw and sub

Im not talking bout rotation only
Any other questions just bring them up.
Tfw you had recently did an item restoration and then blizz brings nerfs to outlaw
Any talent builds for m+?
@undone cairn dont cap on energy, spend CPs on envenom, dont let rupture or garrote fall off
@charred raptor I KNOW im not breaking another azerite item
@main blaze so for aoe should I worry about the perfect timings for rupture and garrote?
@thorn crater for real. With Deadshot getting crushed and 5% overall, I might switch to assassination. But now, I have no great gear for it.
Keep non empowered garrotes going at 5.4 seconds remaining, keep 5 CP point ruptures going at 7.2 seconds, TB on cd, mut + envenom during off time. Pool energy before vanish so you can use 3 GCDs in that window
Think I have 1 SS and 2 of the poisoned knife ones.
i got the motherlode chest for ace up ur sleeve, and then i realised I ALREADY HAD IT AND SCRAPPED ITfeelsbadman
i have 1xSS and 2xDagger in back
its okay, really wish i could swap out dagger in back though
But yeah, I'm not scrapping anymore azerite pieces unless it's like 30 ilvl below
@frigid lagoon Either copy the image or https://goo.gl/T6dY6p
Okay thanks
You dont need the extra rupture for TB build
Oh man the sheet
Yeah I can remove the added Rupture that's waste.
That is a handy sheet though. ive noticed most questions are about rotations.
is exan better than TB with SS?
figuring out dungeon build, how do you guys like to dps a pack with 5+ mobs?
just fok ct?
garr 3 times and go to kitchen
Do note that sheet is only for SS.
come back to top dps
Oh quick question is there a way to know which garrote is empowered or not
ye i open garotte 3x
At least CT afterwards you heathen.
what are the requirements stat wise for exsang vs tb?
I dislike Ct as well ;_; Can you still play Poison Bomb in dungeons or is the difference too big to not do it? :c
Its not here right now
Should be back by next tuesday
