I know what you want
whats the opener without SS?
but it's with ss
Assassination Stat weights:
Single target: haste > crit > mastery > vers
Multi target: crit > mastery > vers >= haste
Note: Simming will always result in more accurate results.

Toxic Blade opener : garrote rupture garrote rupture?
Like I said... new sheet.
๐
So garrote again before vendetta?
Same as listed in guide.
I was putting rupture and then vendetta muti toxic
Sometimes it would leave me woth 3cp
The sheet is more for explaining things to some people as they were still confused on a few things.
I agree with garrote before vendetta and will try that today, it is guaranteed 4 and if toxic proc then 5cp
wait on the TB opener
it says Garrote > Rupture > Garrote > Vendetta?
shouldn't it be Garrote > Rupture > Garrote > Rupture?
It follows the guide.
The one at the top
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
uhhuh
Shrouded Suffocation
shouldnt we use another rupture before vendetta
๐
Till some are added O _O"
rip
For now I'm just glad
I actually enjoy assa a lot tbh
Dotting stuff was always satisfying
I don't know why ppl Dislike CT Males the gameplay harder and doesnt fuck You up in trash dps
What m+ is 90% about
hmm
Well I've tried to put CT in my rotation
But i've just seen more dps by using more ruptures/envenoms on mobs
CT depends on your tank and healer being able to stay up with a 3+ pull.
and using Posion bomb as dmg
You cant compete with other dps in 5+ without ca
ct feels like trash in rotation
CT"
PB is shit for kiting.
PB is so bad for the current affixes
agreed
like honestly it feels like hot garbage. I should be spamming envenoms but instead i have to stop to put some crap tier 5k dot on a target? No thanks not for me, ill hope for rnjesus
M+
but sanguine is only this week
Well necrotic is kiting too
mobs are usually slowed btw
You only kite
so the short poison bomb duration actually dps's them
In high Keys+
should we be refreshing garote and rupture to full duration regardless of how much time is left before exsanguinating?
i finished my +10 in 60 minutes with PB. was ez pz
!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.
m+5 keys are super easy anyways
What setup and GS did You Play shanksy
and they die before CT can even do decent damage
usually poison bomb just outdps's it
since mobs are coordinated stunned
and slowed/rooted
and killed all at the same time
so sanguine isnt healing
if it is its just a bad pug
+10 in 60 minutes 
We went in not trying to beat timer, but for a clean run. we had 8 deaths. not bad at all. judge the time all you want. but i didnt spend 4 hours in a dungeon because people are brain dead
whats pb
Poison bomb
What instance +10
any good tips or addons for managing 3 garrotes and 3 ruptures on targets?
freehold
Lucky bastard
Are the guide builds accurate atm?
doing a 10 atal later today, ill probably test MFD over vigor there
I only get shrine keys with my guys
shrine isnt bad if you have kick order down
Have to Play with rnd heal and 1 dps
- them galecallers are nice!
@muted quarry lmk if u find any
Whats your Boss dps with PB?
with hero im at 18-20k
What
ending dps or burst?
ending dps on boss fights
What
i end with much higher dps depending on bosses
GS?
"depending on bosses"
i must be playing wrong
usually boss dies before 2nd empowered garrote
then the group has over 25k dps @dense yarrow
Depends on key
well, last boss on temple you cant end with 20k dps... ๐
Multi dot
It all depends on group dps
so it doesnt matter
if group dps is low
you will fall off fast
๐๐ผ
not getting 2nd empowered garrote just means the overall dps is insane
and prbly a disco spamming dps
yeah
are you even doing + keys
or a m0
cuz I still dont see how they die in 10 seconds
+5-6s
thought id share the updated sims with you guys
Exsg outperforming PB?
yes
Im at 10.8k at a +6 key
by about 1-2%
@verbal sorrel do u play the same as with tb only replacing tb with exs?
well no
I'm currently playing TB
but with exsg
you just use garrote twice on opener
and rupture aswell
so you increase the duration of the buff
and then exsg with vendetta
@verbal sorrel with 3 ss pieces exange still sims 150dps lower than toxic
Where does poison build come ?
or master poisoner?
Sorry
Everyone uses PB for ST
there's no other talent other than maybe FoK but thats just worse
poison build isnt on the sims right now, pretty sure exsg is just gonna be the new default
so when do i pick up exs? 2 ss traits?
when it sims higher for you
ait
Is the exsang build the same as TB, just changing that tier?
Shanksy i assume You got 3SS?
but thats the case for both specs
And what GS?
@verbal sorrel
i was 2xSS at that point
thats from shrine +5
i still dont have 3xSS
We don't care about dungeon dmg
@dense yarrow looking good
Only bosses
really good
Do i need 3x SS to play Assa?
No, but it helps
@civic locust no
So Elaborate, Subterfuge, Vigor, and Exssng?
no you do not, but it makes a big diff if you can get the pieces
So if you stack SS you use more than 1 garrote on same target in opener?
is stat priority for exsang still haste crit?
Ok, thanks. Switching over from outlaw since they're getting nerfed.
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
i mean... relatively speaking..
Guys, any1 who knows how i can make my garrote WA show green color when its empowered by subterfuge?
in general.
relatively speaking haste > crit ye
k ty.
@verbal sorrel link what of my char?
aite
@dense yarrow what talents do you run for dungeons`
im at x1 ss and my garrote isnt coming close to your dmg
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
usually tb and pb, last dungeon i tried CT and was pretty good @civic locust
@prime stirrup what talent build are u using for m+?
Is that Guide high end or for beginners?๐
It's the guide.
Im with unavailable on that too. tb/pb feels great. Im going to try adding MFD over vigor for this 10 atal im doing later today
@knotty oak i run 2212221
ait ty
im so jealous
@dense yarrow whats your ST sim?
about 13.6k
Hey guys, what traits are we ideally looking for in Uldir? Are we stacking any?
SS/ overwhelming power
gz on the chest
You're gonna wanna sim yerself der bud.
What is the current bug with SS?

If you are raiding Heroic/Mythic odds are you are going to item leveled out of SS pieces.
ty
Though they still might win out in M+ due to how those function.
the diff before 2x ss and 3x ss is very big also
is it?
hmm
I'm gonna have to see
whats your max garrote crits
mine are like 11
11k
I need head SS Trait for 3
Sorry for not understanding very well, but so if i open with garrote on 3 different mobs, i shouldnt use garrote outside of subterfuge if there is a 4th mob?
@verbal sorrel
Freehold is the best dung in terms of loot
3rd is basically the same damage as the second with is the same increase in damage as the first.
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
i have 3 ss and the other rogue has 2 ss
Or is it only for ST
with 2x SS my garrotes crit for almost 26k when hero is on
wow
yeah that's a huge difference
but the other rogue might not be playing as efficiently as you
im too dump to play the sin q.q
Show damage breakdown of the dps @dense yarrow
they are additive for SS and then mutliplied by the subterfuge talent. so its a compounding trait
what shanksy said
You're not magically doing 20% more damage.
Well 356ilvl
but I dno
No Wonder Thats escalating
ok
biggest crit for that fight i had 20k for garrote
but see
he had 11k
Yeah but don't look at that that's not his point.
the other rogue kinda misplayed
sorry i had 22k he had 14k
i posted my screenshot earlier of 2xSS crits for 26k
i have 5 ilvl more than him
Unless he's multiboxing the performance of other characters doesn't matter.
its about the diff between 2ss and 3ss
Shanksy whats your GS?
ye ye
What Setup You guys recommend for pushing for a +10?
and all that fights are without pots cuz im poor xD
lol
first boss motherlorde i did 32k dps at end of fight
Well classes ofc
in terms of classes
No grp Setup sorry
boomie for sure
i cant get ss on anything yet
First boss motherlode is bs cause if you do mechs right you shouldnt end with under 25K
boomies this week are OP
Why?
those bombs are a huge fucking dmg increase
ye
and if you stagger them, its even better
good aoe
First boss motherlode I've had 40k
a rez
on +5
anyway, ill keep testing ss and will try exan, im off guys, have a good one
and other 2 dps anything
Disco healer ?
ye
I'll go sim exsang on me
is it just luck on getting SS on gear?
yes
Dafuqs that ?
Disc priest
they add 10% dmg buff
Our dk tank hates disc ๐
@muted quarry The traits are set for any 1 piece but it's luck getting the specific pieces that have them
= op op on top of drums
well if he hates discs
resto druids are really good now
other than hpalas
with the buff
in terms of other dps anything works really
I myself would get another caster
mage/lock
is exsang build pretty much all the same talents except no TB?
@frosty oak ye
Our healdrood went casual
because of the recent sub nerfs is sin new best thing according to sims?
think that the fathoms trinket is worth 90k guys?
!ss

the fathoms trinket is still really good
but its gonna fall off from next maybe
depends
if you get lucky with trinket drops
90k is a lot of g
You know what trinket is hot freaking garbage in most situations?
Every one i have and Thats a Dmg Proc trinket
Banana tol dagor or atal all 355
All Fucking hot garbage
which one shank
Fucking CANNON O _O
yeah i have the damn cannon too. shit
Wait to see if raid trinkets are buffed.
@prime quail i have 3 360 master vers rings unusable
that trinket is hot trash, i want my quick owlseye back
We aiming for freehold/shrine trinkets right ?
Siege also
If you cannot use Galecallers well skip it.
siege drops a great ring, and decent trinket
Spyglass from Siege is very good.
I got galecallers, love that thing
i got spyglass also, but fathoms/ galecaller is better
Exsang is 0.3% higher dps for me than TB. Time to swap
best are Galecaller's Boon Icon Galecaller's Boon
Harlan's Loaded Dice Icon Harlan's Loaded Dice
right?
Class theorycrafting community, latest simulation results and resources -based on SimulationCraft- for World of Warcraft.
I got a galecallers form m0 last week
I have 3 340 trinkets
im pretty sure elctrocution in a jar is really good right now
Galecaller, Dice and Jar
im new to assassination, only ever played sub, is the aoe for assassination pretty much the same? fan of knives for envenom and maintain garrote? or do i maintain rupture too?
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
There's a guide just like there is for SUB.
Combo Boon and Dice sim 0.6% better than Dice/Jar
Maintain rupt
Simulation data for everyone. Overview of DPS relevant simulation data for World of Warcraft.
i never read a guide for sub
Maintain rupt on 3x targets, maintain garrote on 2x
garrote on 2 not 3?
But its on sims and when u play u cant make usage of Boon completely so I went for Dice/Jar
Whether you read one or not they still exist and have your answers.
@winter gale You can make use of the full boon if you time it correctly
Might be a dumb question, but does Garrotes stack? Since yall are running Subterfuge with SS even on single target
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
For example in mother fight I think the 2nd boon will be during winds, where the boss is likely to move
In mother people are killing in first room
Just hold boon for overlaps at that point if things are fishy.
on heroic
we killed in 2nd room and still had 40+ energy remaining on room
My guild did it on the 2nd room on normal. Could've easily done it on the first room tho
Yes but since u need to move sometimes and I dont know that much of ta tacts yet I find it a bit g
harder so I use jar
Easier
Well you just gotta read DBM/Bigwigs timers
And when boon is usable and there's 10 seconds of standing still
use it
use that thing on CD
im about to macro it into garrote
_>
main reason i don't like guides are because the information can be wrong because they arent frequently updated, like the one you linked says for ST TB is the best, but sims are showing exsang is best. Is this still correct despite sims? @civic palm
its probably correct for most people
only a some folks will have the azerite traits to make it worth
They're frequently updated here.
It also tells you to SIM yourself and gives you the opener for multiple different builds.
I got 2xSS and Exsang is better for me
_>"
im not really concerned about what is best for me at the moment
but more so what to strive for.
idc what the best build is for me when i have random trash gear with random stats
Then play Arcane Mage.
uh..
lol
no.
and like I said, wait till Tuesday and see what all nerfs are coming.
Then wait for the HeroDamage to be updated and see where things fall into place.
For a new player tb is by far easier than exsang
whats the best site to run a sim
And its supposed to be a newb intro
We're going to advocate for Raidbots here.
Just like sub, talents are close
Yerp.
You can sim better in this now and not tomorrow
You can play what you want or need for boss
Yeah but just tell him.
can someone help me with raidbot. theres alot to this page
only ones that are ever relatively close for sub is wm and fw
Looks like some options there.
Minus the level 100 talent O _O"
But that's due to this being Single Target only.
Don't run Sims on ask Mr robot unless you fix their trash rotation
In case you havent played sub, wm fw mfd ds vary
wait wait
Even dark shadow for some people
Why is your rupture so high agent
no clue
let me check
And your melee is trash. I don't know what's up with that sim, but it doesn't look right. You low ilvl right now?
no. my stats are jacked up but im not pulling any good dps at all
im at 338
masterys at like 20
You probably have bad azerite pieces at the moment and bad daggers. You should be simming near 11k
my gear sucks. but still not getting the DPS i think i should be
So can I confirm this opening rotation as I have one SS? Garrote/Rupture/Garrote/Vendetta...
Just garrote garrote rupture
Vendetta tb mut into envenom rinse repeat with vanish when garrote is sub 5seconds remaining
So exang is the way to go for single target or toxi blade?

Have to sim yourself to see if exsang is better
@prime stirrup to trust u or picture? ๐
I guess a need to replace my 325 off-hand dagger first
So believe me or just tag mizerok
Good stuff glad it worked out for you. Whatever it was
Perhaps when we change format with RH
Yes
Why do u cast 2 garrotes in the opener with SS?
I typically pop vanish at 3 seconds or less on first empowered garrote. I'm sure letting it tick the extra 3 seconds is worth but use it when I've pooled enough energy
I sim higher with TB But I love exeg =[
so bois, the subt garrotes. do they benefit from shrouded?
Yes
pog
Garrote/Garrote/Rupture
Vendetta/Mutilate/TB
Mutilate to 4-5 /Envenom
Mutilate to 4-5/Envenom
Is this ok?
Wut
Just don't use garrote after subterfuge window and they will stay empowered
The picture is better
so is it like, 100% exsg better or nah
If I have 2+cp going into ST pull I garrote rupture garrote, but that's only time
so if we go garrote garrote rupture unlike what the picture says, are we still pandemicing rupture before exang?
do you guys think assa can be decent in m+ compared to sub or will it be forever shit until CT buff ?
idk i feel useless on packs
You're doing something wrong
on huge packs ?
Should be able to pull 14k + on 3+ pulls no prob
yea right i'm talking about big pulls here
like huge
when your frost dk is doing 40k dps lul
If it's big then you just fok CT and start getting ruptures out
So CT is like a 6k dot for me. If the dungeon doesn't have a lot of 5+ pulls I'm not changing from pb
CT is just too good on anything with 3 mobs or more
Pb is always usefull St or mt it doesn't change. But ct is only good on trash
PB is lazy talent
It's like 2% increase on ST and worthless if it doesn't proc when you need it to
so you just take ST talents but with CT instead of PB ?
CT makes rotation ass. And I would rather FoK envenom than fok ct.
for M+
CT is a gain whenever you're up against 3 targets
On high keys I like iron wire as well
exsanguinate or toxic blade for m+?
No clue
ct exsangs?
Nahh
are you sure? CT seems to be a bleed effect right
It is but you don't use it on ST
ah ye true
It's straight up worthless on St and is a dps loss
2% dps loss on st
exsg it
For a massive gain against trash
thats what i meant
No reason to not take CT in a M+
@ancient sonnet yes, CT is affected by exsang
I thought as much ๐
You're undervaluing pb, but CT is good in situations
I'm valuing pb at exactly what it is
guide says with CT you just spam it in aoe i tought you only needed to keep the dot up
What's the maximum amount of ruptures you'd put out in a, lets say, pack of 8 mobs?
A 2% gain on ST
Lone 3-4
I don't try to keep more than 3ish ruptures up
Is it worth to spam CT in big mob packs then?
wouldnt it just always be better to rupture everything you can if they live long enough?
You want to be using envenom for the buff and 30k crits
ct lasts 12s
Cast Crimson Tempest Icon Crimson Tempest with 4-5 Combo Points.
Cast Envenom Icon Envenom with 4-5 Combo Points (do not use it if you have Crimson Tempest Icon Crimson Tempest talented).
is that right ?
you can squeeze multiple env in that window surely?
Is there a sheet for 3x ss opener ?
CT gives me 6k dot over 12 seconds. If it isn't a pack of 5 or more and lots of them I'm going pb
Any fight in Uldir you go CT on? I'd say no
i mean the amount of time im actually seeing kited mobs in M+
im running CT
cause they just walk right out of pb
CT is a damage increase at 3 or more targets
It adds one button to sins very simple rotation
do you also keep up 3+ garrotes in aoe ?
If you're running a mythic+ then running pb is just lazy :p
If they'll live for it yeah, 12s is enough time to maintain ruptures
Pb is a freaking 2 second dot. They aren't sprinting out of the proc, I regularly see it crit tick for 3k instant dmg. Which is half of a full combo CT application
holy jesus garrote does insane damage
Wait... where did the direct WA links go
If the CT rotation wasn't ass maybe. But to get the most out of CT you typically 2-3 cp rupture instead of 4-5cp ruptures
Why does that matter
Because shit dies too quickly
Rupture is cp neutral
On bigger packs getting low cost ruptures out fast just gets you more energy for more FoK
gonna try out CT now
to see if it does more dps
do I run MfD with it
or just vigor
CT rotation? CT is just a finisher you use in place of rupture every 10 seconds
Sin barely has an aoe rotation as it is
Vigor
ight
does maintaining CT have prio over your 3 ruptures?
Yesss
garrote, garrote, garrote, CT, go to africa, come back, be top dps 
do you use envenom at all on aoe trash pulls if running ct?
Garrote tab garrote tab garrote CT fok rupture fok tab rupture etc etc
When I was running CT I did garrote 3x rupture fok rupture fok rupture fok to 5 cp then CT and everything is dead by then
Then it doesn't matter what you run because you're doing a +2
well use CT before rupture then ๐
How are people feeling about Exsanguinate for M+ now? I'm not running CT
so you just maintain the CT dot not actually spamming it right ?
Yeah I don't spam it unless it's literally trash trash
What setting was Tab usually bind to ? Had it bind for a spell for me xD
how colorful this channel is right now

It seems like it would be great for prio mobs on pulls as well
Akizane next target
Frontload a shitton of DPS
Ghost. I'm running 10s with pb and having no problem being top dps. But thanks for your elitism bud
Homie if you're running +10s and every pull is dying within 5 globals then Im interested
are u playing with afflocks to be top dps in aoe ?
We're running 10s and playing snart. Sapping/ sheeping so everything is manageable so our pulls are 2 mobs
And being top dps has literally nothing to do with any of this
Cool?
CT is a damage gain on 3+ targets
You want to be a yolo monkey and do huge pulls on 10 then go for it
"When I was running CT I did garrote 3x rupture fok rupture fok rupture fok to 5 cp then CT and everything is dead by then"
Doing every pull in 8 seconds
Why aren't you in the MDI
Why aren't you? Because you play fotm?
??? Why are you foking if your pulls are two mobs
what mythic dungeon should i be mainly farming as a priority
I'm not, I said I'm not running CT in 10s
told? underrot?
Read or gtfo
That's your quote
Depends what pieces are needed, sos has head, Atal has chest
Harv shrine/freehold/siege
im personally farming shrine for that damn trinket :)
@prime stirrup @autumn bloom pls stop, both of you.
why would u farm siege????????? tehre are no daggers there
i need everyhting just wonder what piece i guess is most beneficil to get first
Because siege drops trinket and crit haste ring
Get some good daggers
equip trinket shit
when do we use exsanguinate on trash pulls? after 3x garrote + ctr or?
lol
yea i got latticework main and shitty off hand
tried to sim myself with both PB and CT and the difference is barely noticable
Pvp has very easicly obtainable 345 crit haste dagger
Takes less than 2 hours to get
in aoe of course
thankyou for the help!
guess i'll just try it in m+
implying you can just hug left wall and get %
pvp gives axe to me, and yes i changed loot spec and spec and everythikng it still shows an axe
did a sim and my haste weight is almost higher than agi wtf
You can if you clear most of first section
Sang, it's a quest you turn in
At the end you pick the weapon reward you wamt
Once the conquest bar is full
But yeah, teeming fort on motherlode will be awful
Can pick the axe or the dagger
Yeah, ignore what shows next to conquest bar. You have option like ghost said
The dagger can also just drop for you as a pvp reward
Hey question on haste buffing bleeds, does the dot tooltip reflect the increase tick rate or will it always say 1.8 sec
I got a 350 crit haste dagger on 5th ranked 3s
340 first 2v2 ring
It's haste over crit. I think 350 version is like +35 crit +55 haste
They equal to like 104 total secondary stats. So my math is wrong think the haste is higher but I'm on phone not at desktop
is sin worth with 2xSS traits?
sure
Been away for a week and noticed simcraft stating Exsanguinate over TB? this new?
found it
is there a haste req for changing to it?
i'm playing with 3 ss, is it a waste? bloodmallet say it's best
It's best qwen
As far as I know there is no haste requirement but its best 
who making images with rotation what ppl posting during the day ?
Thats a butchered statement but I think you mean Mizerok
?? You mean the Google docs sheet mizerok has been posting? It's linked like 2 hours ago if you scroll up
Or tag him
yes google docs
@civic palm post your rotation doc
he just posting images ? or someone have a link
when do you actually start foking for cp generation ? 3+ ?
Yes 3+
FoK is better the more crit you have
Because nothing feels worse than 4 or 5 foks to hit 5 cp
@prime stirrup is that from conquest?
The 345 version I have was from conquest. The 350 was arena win drop
Arena too
Or can i cap it in arena?
35 per
You also get from skirmishes but it stops regarding conquest atter a few
500 points for dagger
Okey
https://www.wowhead.com/news=286968/ranked-pvp-item-levels-for-bfa-season-1-explained it's worth doing pvp right now
I'm a pve player but will do whatever it takes to get geared for mythic raiding. So that means spamming pvp
would iron wire be the best for pve?
It's 10 per arena past first win
since the silence works on a good bit of mobs
which means 15% less dmg for a bit for tanks
Very worth for necrotic/over all caster mobs
I'm doing a lot of cheap shotting in high keys, so I will run a few with that talent
Is cheap rly worth? Surely the garrote dmg is less time damaging tank than the 3 sec stun
I'm cheapshotting stunnable casts not to save tank
Like going bananas in freehold and such.
I'm just going to test it out and see how it feels
Tank shouldn't have a problem kiting out necro stacks
@prime stirrup i def agree i was cheapshotting A LOT in my 10 key
It felt like a requirement
Smells like nerfs incoming? ๐
i think for right now where 10s are still a bit challenging gear wise it just helps a lot
I had 47 kicks in the 10 I ran
Kojac we've made it 2 weeks in this state
So hopefully no nerfs to SS. I think they should make other traits better, like dagger in the back
I'm glad I'm aware about the bug, the damage would have been lower if I kept applying garrote outside 3 main targets
Id be much happier with them buffing interesting traits, ones that affect playstyle or talents the way ss does
I'm pretty sure they are going to be tuning SS, I doubt garrote doing 30% of our damage is intended design
!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.
Yeah that's what I was saying. ss is good but it feels required. Almost everything else is trash tier in comparison
sin is making a comeback?
unfort if ss is nerfed I think we'll have no fallback
It never left
I'd be happy if they buffed mastery for us and made it so the spec was more about well places ruptures
i like the current design honestly. ss is fun
I want master poisoner back to antorus days
agreed, makes vanish feel really impactful which is fun
its fun because its effortless, I don't hate it but it doesn't feel right from a design point
are the new sims up yet?
EP is cool and all, but mp was awesome
Master poisoner being reverted to legion days would make me a happy dude
Like just make us go all in on bleeds. Don't sissy foot around it blizz
I liked the mastery build in legion better as well
i liked vw and vr, but mp was boring
blindside was a good opportunity to make sin unique
And it failed hars
And they gutted mp, so now we get ep
let it scale with mastery
How is mp more interesting you at least juggle ep
I miss 206% mastery
ep is more interesting from playatyle
ep literally just happens, you rarely get to play around it
No one said mp was more interesting
Just that we want it changed to effect all bleeds/poisons like legion
mp you pooled too though to be fair
the thing is that we're not working as designed, rupture is supposed to be our biggest hitting spell and right now rup is like 15% of our damage
thats why I think SS is getting the bat
make blindside baseline ez clap
We're building for it though,
The rupture azerite trait is so bad. Like they had all this information before bfa launched. And they did nothing with it
At least partially
unfort the only thing keeping us viable in low key mythics is triple ss
@lofty sand shhhh don't let them hear ya
since there's no ramp time
@inner tree yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
We would be useless in low keys without SS.
you guys think i should run my 3rd 340 SS over archive of the titans 370?
im ehh about it
Yes
sim it
low key mythics are pretty irrelevant and will only get even more irrelevant with time. I doubt they will design the spec around that
i simmed it
Archive is not better than SS right now
sim is not a good indicator of how dungeons play out
archive has more dps on long drawn out fights
you dont get multiple triple garotte resets in sim
Until you have to do things like run orbs on ghunn, and it resets and you're back to useless
3x SS only fix the initial burst for the spec on m+, so it's not an issue @lofty sand
afaik
sim does not support restealthing in between pulls
or ive never seen sim parameters with that
so no, you cant sim it
can tanks ever learn to NOT CHAIN PULL
face palm
Big lmao
i know my ST and hectic add cleave dmg shows archive 370 as higher purely because of the agi
SS is the best option we have in any situation dude, it has been talked to death in this channel. We dissect SS and theorycraft around it for weeks
you can indeed sim this
im talking opinion of dungeon
for m+5
no buffs, 30~40s fights would probably do it i guess
since you get restealth anyway so
thats why you're better than all the theorycrafters that havent simmed dungeon environments right ;)
cause its very easy
mhm
sigh.
I wish noobe was online
Toxic blue tags in the megenta section!!
noobe is great.
All night like this
i play all 3 specs
i secretly wish sub had lower dmg but more energy regen/more spammable buttons
That makes you less reliable source of information

When you look at parses you see that like 75% of rogues are fotm players
im talking about simming stuff its not spec specific lmao
i main rogue i dont main a spec, i play whats good
Got those week 1 Assn parses under my belt so can't be called fotm
Fotm?
So you just came here from the sub channel and suddenly you know better than all of the people who have been playing with the spec from the get go?
Tfw im actually a fotm sin but still better than sin mains YEET
only the best of the best remember this gem in legion with shoulders 
Flavor of the month. People that hop ship as soon as a tubing patch is released
Ah okey
Tuning*
holy shit im not saying i know better i literally asked for an opinion on dungeon traits
despite what the sim says
thats called learning from people that play the spec
and we're saying that SS is better in every situation
Is this a thing people care about, playing different specs within your same class?
Lol that kingsbane boy stop linking old openers
I know its not an exciting answer but thats it
But that pb on first rupture was probably orgasmic
all of them were!
Did u know pb on ur opener removed your ns buff
anyone here use somesort of macro for vendetta and Galecallers boon trinket?
lul
w0t vendetta gets parried?
I got a 100 for ilvl parse with only two pbs on opener in antorus
when you 5 stack shuriken combo puffer fish buffed evis got parried by mistress
feels bad
it did in legion
or missed because you land in a pool lol
LMAO
That's the best fucking log I've seen
thats honestly a chad
Ever, in my life
I bet he did that and did hella damage
He got a pick lock proc off for Christ sake. What a god
So sin best spec next week?
Yeah hurry come join the cool kids in magenta
Better change quick before the exodus happens and you're recognized
spec scaling is nuts so if not now it will be eventually without nerfs
๐
Sub was scaling just as well
But then tubing patch came and they hit everything but the scaling
oh shit i forgot to sim my sub/outlul
Tuning*
@nimble tartan what you sim at now
what i hate about sub is that you'r too way too reliant on good rng on your evi/ss crits
when i look my details at the end of the fight and i see 20% evi crit i know my rank is garbage
My guild wanted me to go sub. Now they are telling me to stay sin
Ill play what ever is required for whatever raid boss. Makes no difference, but if I have choice I'm playing sin. Reliable dmg
feel like poison bomb all over again
Consistent rotation
yea
oy exsang is fun as heck
^
and simmable dps increase depending on your stats
i'm full of haste/crit so i got it good
got 3x ss?
hells yeah
13.3
ilvl?
351
As sub?
no no sin
Oh okay, was wondering why so low if sub
Yeah I'm simming at 13.2k with 1xss 353 ilvl
En was never the good ol days
i sim 13k which is like close to my sub sim after nerf
ok EN wasn't the good days but exsang was ร_ร
You still heavy into vers?
i'm trying to get rid of that shit
!trinkets
haste is like 1.8
Stack that crit haste and watch your mastery weight creep up. I can't wait till mastery does something again
Trinkets are pinned
@west frost its not
ayyy
Lol your haste so low huh
It's on the bloodmallet site
14%
Oh that's not bad at all
without food
someone made a projection some time ago and apparently haste holds it as our best stat all the way to like 11k or some stupid number like that
what
reliant on evi crits
so I wouldnt hold my breath with that
Isn't it every spec? lol
now it's garrote crit for sin :X
yes it is when both spells do more than half your dmg
envenom doesn't even come close to this
yo dawgs ! I have a question ! It's a fortified week, should I go for crit/mastery ? is there any cap ?
you should play sub kapp
You cant get enough secondary stats to cap anything
There's no soft cap for haste on sin, and crit will always be good
@inner tree More slow in +7 for necroshik in Assa :c
the cap likely is having all your gear giving you only haste
