i wonder how much haste we'd need for 3x ss garrotes to tick every 0.1s
Haste is always good. If it comes in the form of crit/haste it's even better
What's your energy regen like? Feel starved without crits?
That's good haste
Which t100 talent with Exsa for dungeons? Still PB?
man i gotta say i really like assa
I'm at 24%/15% crit/haste
@prime stirrup Sometimes i'm out of energy, like 0.5/1s gap :c
CT is better for dungeons
@daring imp during exang and lust it is down to 0..6. Ish. So that's probably not happening.
Should I take more crit ?
Yea
still, one can dream ๐ฆ
Crit is good in 5s. Need cps from the fok if you plan to ever Ct.
Sim yourself for starters. But more than likely you're going to want more crit
Though it was full haste for Single Target, before Crit
Nothing better than fok fok fok fok fok for 5 cp honestly the best feeling in the game
Got a multi target gear from Sub with 25% crit / 45% Mastery and 8% Hast
Crit makes rotation faster
Meaning more uptime on ep/envenom which add up in the grand scale of things
So i got the Construct Overcharger. And the Frenetic Corpuscle trinkets. But is fathoms still better than either one of those?
that 4 hits do some damage trinket?
CT is only good in dungeons where pulls consistently have 5+ mobs in them. So if your tank pulls like a sissy then youโd run PB
For this m+ week, should i go for crit/mastery or not crit/hast ?
my only heroic loot this week frenetic corpuscule omegalul
It takes so damn long to get 4 stacks and then you have to watch it like a hawk to have it line up with something
I got a heroic titanforged construct overcharger ๐
-not
@chrome umbra not easy to convince the tanks of my guild to stop pulling one pack at a time and go deep รง_รง
tips on how to taunt them pls
It's legit such a let down. I got a socketed version and I wish I would have just given to guildie because I'm never going to use it
So i take it i still use fathoms over it then
Uldir trinkets are hot garbo
CT seems alright
Yeah, I'm using fathoms/galecallers
Err
What dungeons does the SS azerite armor drop from?
Construct
does that haste trinket from uldir proc decently?
12% haste is too low right? i main outlaw but starting to really like asa
does exsang apply only on the target or on everyone with dot ?
CT only accounts to like 10% of my overall dmg. Garrote is 30-40
It's low. But horrid
my 340 dice is actually better
@molten fox it's somewhere, start stacking it and see the monster growing
15% seems to be a good number
Im at 19% haste atm as assa
@edgy trellis st.
hmm ok
What dungeons does the SS azerite armor drop from?
Shrine for head
underrot chest
Chest is gold plated epulates or whatever. Think that's temple?
uldir 3rd boss also has a piece
no shoulders with ss in dung
uh, mb, fetid
Fetid is a lovely fight
it's quite easy to down it on a pug atleast on normal
Almost impossible to mess up
I killed all of normal in a pug today
Grats!
It was pretty impressive. I went in there not even expecting to pass Mother
I'm 5/8 heroic with my guild only reading 2 hours. A day. We're 4 hours into heroic
Raiding*
30 man raiding is not fun btw. Can't wait till mythic cuts go out and we're down to 20
i secretly hate carrying people that die in less than a minute into any fight ร_ร
I vocally hate people that don't move zekvoz eye beams out of melee group
IT'S NOT MY FAULT THE PUGS I GET IN ALL GIVE ME OVER 300MS OK ๐ฆ
If I have a trinket that increases my agility, do I need to use it before I rupture to get the dps increase or will the bleed tick up after I use the trinket (but the bleed is already applied)
Also the same question, but with vendetta
When using CT in dungeons, in the opener, do you still do Garotte > Rupture with atleast 1x SS or do you do Garrote > CT?
Only things that snapshot are ns and subt
Against bosses
Thx Bisjack
people are saying to garrote garrote garrote ct then go into rupture
but i dont personally play with ct so I cant tell you exact rotation

Thats for multiple targets
@torpid sluice no matter what you do, when you have SS you need to apply 3 garrotes in subterfuge window, doesnt matter if youre cp capped
Thats what I wanted to know ๐
On ST isn't it: Gar > Rupt > Gar > Mut > Even?
Garrote 3x in st doesn't make much sense
^
st garrote garrote rupture vendetta tb mut enven
U can cast garrote twice on the same target ? :S wut
.......................
subterfuge
you can cast 3 times with subterfuge
is overwhelming power not the top simming azerite trait in the 2nd tier anymore?
it still is
I thought i could only apply it to 3 targets with subterfuge
ah, it is not listed in the ravenholdt guide
ravenholdt guide is 
@civic palm has a nice google docs page with sin rotations
ill try and find it if he doesnt link
He said he was taking out garrote rupture garrote opener in favor of garrote garrote rupture. not sure if that happened
not mine, mizerok deserve credit
yeah im going to have to run sims and see if thats the way to go right now for my azerite traits/ secondary stats. but its looking promising
ill link what he said earlier about garrote rupture garrote when i find it. gimmie a min
literally just started playing sin so not much use
Ok so garrote - rupture - garrote - It just looks like it extends the timer for me. does it actually stack?
In response to "you dont need that extra rupture on opener" he said this [5:25 AM] MIZEROK [InSomnia]: Yeah I can remove the added Rupture that's waste.
but not the way you're thinking
The garr garr rupture and garr rupt garr opener is the same i heard
I do 2x garr then rupture
except you dont have to use CP for rupture refresh and you also dont have to worry about a 3cp ruptures timing
thats why im using garrote2x rupture
hmm people running poison bomb in M+ now or is crimson still strong?
no, i wouldnt. by the time your garrote is wearing down you will have just reapplied another 5 cp rupture. so when you vanish you can hit garrote garrote enven
@maiden siren at the end of m+ pb is ~3% of my dmg, didn't test ct yet tho รง_รง
I ran PB in a 10 and had zero problems with it
Was 16% of mine
a lot of people disagree with me, but i could careless. im not doing CT until mobs last 1 min
But was doing Freehold
agreed
@torpid sluice pb 16% dmg? wth
@prime stirrup what would the full gar x2 rup opener be?
garrote 2x rupture vendetta tb mut even
tb exchangable with exsang right
exsang is a little different if youre running it. but i beleve you just replace tb with another mut and save exsange for after
are you guys running exsang due to personal pref, or does it actually sim better at some point?
for me its about 300 dps loss
its on a case by case basis
i mean i have 2 traits
i believe when you have enough stacked SS traits its a decent increase
i havent simmed myself with it yet, im only running 1xSS
might be your secondary stats too
hmm, will keep an eye out for it
@rough knoll looks like with exsang your opener changes a bit, you want pandemic'd garrote and rupture then dump exsang
Garrote Rupture Garrote Vendetta Mutilate Rupture Exsanguinate Vanish+Garrote x2
save vanish/garrotex2 till garrote fully wears off
Hmmm i'm following this but I get less damage than the TB/PoisonB build
could be my haste
exsang with that low haste probably isnt worth
you want high haste + stacked SS traits
got 2 ss
so your haste is holding you back ATM
i do yes, but thats because i have more
I know there is no precise cap but still, when I play I feel like its a bit low
Crit and Haste work in similar ways
theres zero cap for haste at this point
so its best to see what your crit and your haste is
you cant get enough secondary stats to hit a soft or hard cap
im at 24%/15% crit/haste with most my pieces being crit/haste
Assassination Stat weights:
Single target: haste > crit > mastery > vers
Multi target: crit > mastery > vers >= haste
Note: Simming will always result in more accurate results.
So I guess that I need like 4-6% haste/crit to feel better
While playing
I have 33% combined
haste will currently always make sin feel better
Yes
Will farm some, its still tourist season here in my country so I dont have that much time ๐
faster ticks + more energy means more dmg all around
we all feel like that right now
no matter what you will still have to pool
but with more haste you have slitghtly less downtime
So. Will the 5% nerfs make us the dom spec?
potentially
From raidbots sims it shows us as highest rogue sim after nerfs. but you never know
5% to sub
reset
I want to play this spec, I want it to be up there
sub takes a pretty decent hit, and outlaw takes a hit too
Outlaw takes a much larger hit than Sub does. But I guess Sub also had their trait hit by 10% without it being reported
ohandza we were best spec for majority of legion
Yes
so its okay if we arent the shining diamond at the moment
but dont worry, this chan will be over run here in about 4 days
I'm fine with Sin not being the shining jewel right now. Until we get the haste to not feel like we're wading through a swamp.
full of misinformation and repeated questions
yeah, Im curious how we look with mythic gear
right now doesnt mean crap
this is just the first tuning patch too, more will come. we arent safe yet
Hopefull SS doesn't take too large a hit, and the other traits get a buff
Id really like to see dagger in the back be more usefull
Pls no.
I see we survived the nerfening
Dagger in the back is a really lame trait.
this week we did
Let it die.
it is a really lame trait, but if you 3 stack anything it shouldnt be trash
and it goes into the entire theme of sin rogues
The other specs are quite upset especially outlaw
I don't blame outlaw being upset tbh. This is the first time they've really been top tier since the start of EN where they similarly got dumpstered by the nerf bat.
do we do use CTempest on st?
that was to PVP
No.
no dont ct on ST
ty ty
i thought deadshot nerf was only to PVP which if thats the case outlaw was good for pvp in legion
I had no probs against the outlaw rogues i went against in 3s. deadshot hits were only like 18k
They just outright nerfed deadshot
^
pvp and pve
u can just play laser matrix for outlaw, ez np
ah, i just saw nothing for sin so i didnt look too hard at it all
I'm kinda suprised we survived the first round
I excepted all 3 specs to get nerfed
my dudes
oh ok
Pls I came from outlaw chat to try forget the horrible DS nerf, pls no reminders
Holy shit... Imagine rolling a dagger like that
I would lose my shit for a dagger like that
Weapons cant titanforge as far as i Know
I haven't done any mythic+ yet
Only done the raid, has mythic plus forced us to talent change?
Or still as before
Gotcha
who needs to titanforge weps when u can pvp at 1600 and get items better than m+
https://i.imgur.com/KpbYMes.png
since most of the fighting is done against trash
Holy shit... That energy regen that CT should give?
I've never tried it but I just realised that
CT Doesnt give Energy Regen on poisioned enemys
I love how you feel great with that shitty 360 dagger
In a week we have easy 380 daggers
how?
From running our +12-15
"easy"
.>
definitely guaranteed drop
I would pay to get garunteed 380 drops
everyone would? lol
A +10 key gives you 370 ilvl next week
i got a real good trinket, but traded it because its not good for sin
all the hunters wanted it
With 19/19% crit/hast, should I go for less hast and more crit ? Like 25/14% ? (switching gems and enchant)
with TF up to 400 and if it drops azerite gear its minimum 385
most people are not going to get a 10+ done week 2
so youre numbers are wrong @prime quail you can chest at mythicpl.us
why not celadriel? i got a 10 done in 66 min
I know the chest has 385
wastn that aids
Im Talking about the end of a m+
well right now you cap at end of m+ at lvl 5
he said starting tuesday, which is when the cap is removed
they dont want you out gearing heroic before mythic is released
Stupid thinking
Anyways I grinded up to 340 for the raid now I'm taking it slow now
https://mythicpl.us/ check rewards a little lower
What mythic plus garbage do we have to deal with this week? https://mythicpl.us
well theyre just trying to prevent what happened at the beginning of legion where people essentially outgeared mythic EN before it came out
355 is current max base ilvl from end of dungeon chest
is it better to focus on maximizing envenom uptime or too pool full energy and utilize eleborate planning window fully?
What freaking lab window ?
anyone wanna link some sims
I just mean if you get 5 combo points and pool to full you can finish, get lab and fit in 2xmuti + another finisher with a 10% increase in dmg those abilites
but during the pooling you drop envenom buff for longer
Whats pooling ? Is this some rogue since launch language ? ๐
.
Dont spending Any Energy: pooling. Get a Pool of Energy .
(he knows what pooling is)
I don't
at least, i assume someone who thinks everyone is going to be running a +12-15 come tuesday knows what pooling is
Well Maybe someone Else didnt Know . Now they Know .
Well sorry to say but I didn't
And well most good ppl will run around next week doing those maybe not casually
But to push for the next chest for sure
is assassination looking like the go to now/
will be fotm pretty soon i suppose ๐
Just Play what you like the most .
you can still play what you want
5% is not the end of the world
will still be higher than most, as sub and outlaw were >5% ahead of a reasonable amount of specs
and not everything got buffed
do we ever hold CDs or do we use exsang/tb/vend on CD?
finally got a second dagger and can give assa a little spin... any advice for proper exsang usage? never played bleed build
5%but a 20% nerf to outlaw best trait
3 generic traits now ahead of deadshot
Every outlaw is gonna join us soon . Then we are on Blizzard Detection for the next nerf
There are a lot of sub rogues still around lol
Outlaw is the I heard rogue is op in BfA Legion dudes
There are so many of them
Like afflis
I was outlaw before BfA
Congrats and now what
๐ค
Just said that outlaw is the omg I'm so bad ty blizz for this specc im a rogue in BfA ppl
I think we'll be coming back to sin ๐
Even a DH is more complex
They're fucking everything up that I like about sub
What traits do u want? 3x SS?
all other things equal, yes 3x SS is the best
could someone explain to me Garrote/Rupture/Garrote as opener with SS? and Garrote/Garrote after first vanish?
Jomyo, head over to this link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xac5HPe_-CgXJo4yUiv_LJldqLu5WjPjUq9d0wRqmIg/edit#gid=0
is hidden blades EVER a good option over the other 2?
Maaaan
It has good burst aoe but for longer term fights, nope
is exsg the go to talent now?
One final answer?
opener is garrote/rupture/garrote
garrote rupture garotte saves you 3cp towards a 5cp rupture override
its Garrote rupture garrote you want EP on your garotte
if you did garrote garotte rupture you might need mut mut
The thing about doing 2 garrote>rupt is that you are just wasting cp
Because you use the first mini rupture to make sure the second one is fully pandemiced for exsang
i believe that assumes some # of shrouded suff
Yeah
what is the assa build to go in m+?
Shrouded 3x
same as raid, but use crimson tempest
how is assassination in M+
FoK spam or garrote spam?
i got 2 shrouded @spice surge how should i play in a multitarget situation
kinda wish I saved all my other azerite pieces lol
Garrote>Nongarrot

a non buffed up one? like just a out of stealth one not a vendetta or EP one? @spice surge
i mean in stealth
The buffed ones ofc
!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.
o.o
so
should i apply 4 garrotes with subterfuge, and then dont use garrote until they all expire?
er i guess u cant do 4
You wont land 4 in sub
i guess i was just using it out of stealth then
so 3 garrotes let them fall off then start using it?
ya your 4th would be non subt
but youd still be ablet o cast it cuz it wouldnt have the cooldown yet
The real question is what percentage of haste do you want before you start using exang?
yeah
I like blisart. Everything working as intended ๐
I'm sitting at like 10% haste and it just isn't doing it for me. I'm stacked SSX2 rn
my exsang was only 40 dps less than tb and i had 7% haste... @drowsy crag
now i have 15%
14% I do ok
15, only 21 crit tho
Exa Sims worse for me by 400 dps, 14 haste here
why do you need haste for exsang ?
you need haste for everything as sin lol
haste is good regardless
But exsang is definitely more useful with a shitton of haste. thanks for the response guys
If you're rocking low haste you're going to pretty much break even between exsang and TB
am on 17% haste with 355 gale trinket - can confirm exsang is awesome with more haste ๐
I'll see if I can push to 15% before I really start counting my numbers. just seems unfair to compare it right now lmao
How is double dose doing?
how much dps increase should i see from getting a 3rd SS?
Double dose is pretty decent ST, but anything with another target gets smashed by SS, especially for dungeons where you can stealth a lot
Ok cool thanks, currently got 3 dd's
how can you see exsang dmg ?
@frosty oak 
With 17% haste i sim the same wi th exan
probably a stupid question but I cant find answer elsewhere, Does shrouded suffocation extra damage ONLY work on stealth garrotes?
What should i also aim for in the 2nd trait slot?
It's on the tooltip
yeah it says AND deals 511 additional damage
From stealth
but does that mean only from stealth
so that extra damage only applies to stealth garrotes
correct
'from stealth'
kk thanks for clarification
Ive head that SS is bugged. so it it dumb to go with 3x 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.
Read the pins, read the faqs
Outlaw, sub and assa seems even after 9/11. so everyone can play the specc he likes.
If I 3x gar and vanish 3x garotte, I am gucci amarite ๐ค
I believe so
why is assa so good in kings rest?
Last boss we get nice cleave
ig because all the mobs have 500k+ hp so maintaining all the buffs is better than having sub or outlaw just cleave
*dots
There are no big packs in kings rest
Only 2-5 mob packs
and the slimes, but they're w/e
maybe im looking in entirely wrong places but i checked ravenholdt guide and i cant find anywhere specifically saying what talents you take for xsang build
You swap tb for exsang
it lists obviously which talents are viable but do i want something like crimson tempest 100% of the time for bleed?
that's abt it
over poison bomb?
CT is amazing in M+
so id still follow this guide but with exsang? since last expansion i remember it was DS for bleed and vigor for poison or smthing like that]
depends on the dungeon ig
yeah
and ur rng
like im not taking CT into King's Rest
Is it best to clip/maintain ep with 3cp, or 4-5 combo finishers
I like both talents in that tier, I prefer PB on smaller packs, CT makes to too busy unless youโre pulling huge
I usually only go CT if it's a tank ik can handle big pack pulls.
is the difference between 2x and 3x ss noticeable?
damn
3 is godly
i had to search all my gear for what had it, i just switched from sub
and got it on 1 340, and 1 325, and 3rd piece has the sands trait and overwhelming
but i gotta get 3x of 340+
Yeah man I got super lucky and rolled it all 3 340
for m+
Iโve still been running toxic blade, currently at 17% haste
Havenโt simmed exsang yet
just switched to assa, anything i should know=ยจ
is there any noticeably good pieces of gear in uldir for us?
I will when I get home though, Iโm interested
i just simmed at 15% haste for me

and exsang does
Yeah man, 2nd boss garrote chest
whats the haste soft cap ?
There is none @timid grotto
!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 doubt there is a soft cap for haste, sin your stat weights for sures
sim*
Outlaw got nerfed, they didnโt touch sin or SS yet. Happy day for me
i hope they dont such ss, cba to farm another 3 azerite amor pieces
yup back to assassination for me
I donโt think they will... at least I hope not
Iโm saving every single Azerite piece I get though
Iโm fucking stacked on them๐
same i cba playing with passive traits so bleed rogue it is
I dont get why the ynerfed it and buffed the other one, its basically the same now
Exsg vs TB for M+?
they reduced overall trait dps by basically nothin just made you choose a boring one ๐ค
At least they nerfed no hands BM Hunter lul
Literally auto shot and pet melee and do a trillion damage in pvp feelsbalancedman
ye they got fucked
@lost heart I would sim yourself to see what works best for your character. I still run TB
can you do sims for m+ specifically?
Itโs the same either way. Bosses I would sim for patchwork, and then trash packs you can sim for hectic add cleave
Heed my call for 2nd ring?
Currently seems the strongest but yeah I would sim for sure
Oh gotcha
It might very well be
is there a command line option for fight style for simc?
You can choose fight style on raidbots
You can choose fight style on raidbots
Are you using raidbots or simulationcraft software?
I personally like raidbots better, easier on the CPU my doggie
Itโs pretty great ๐
last time I felt like the queue times were crazy long
guys, what do you generally skill in Freehold?
skip*
first few packs before 1st boss are the most painful in my group
i skip all the way to first boss after the first pack
then skip the last 3 packs before final
but you have to the them anyway after doing 1st boss
you have to pull the final pack right before the 1st boss yes
@frosty oak same. I skip all of the trash in the last room and just shroud up to the balcony and fight the boss there
how much ilvl is it worth dropping for the 3rd ss trait? or should u just go for the highest ilvl pos.
got 3 garrote relics now with x3 heed my call ๐
@rich olive you'll have to sim the gear. you can compare them on raidbots easily
i just realized
all 3 of the mythic dungeon gear with SS
have heed my call
isnt that like op as shit in pvp
er no
im thinking thunderous blast huh
is SS damage on the trait per tick or overall?
Per tick
ah
Does the boon trinket drop in shrine of thor the thunder God? Coz I never seen him drop 
really wish galecaller's boon was an 8yard radius rather than a 5. it's so small ๐ฆ
is anyone else sad azerite gear doesnt drop frm mythic+ and only from the cache?

No
What talents in 60 and 75 row do you guys prefer and tend to run with in m+?
Fuck getting azrite gear from m+
iron wire is a must for positioning caster mobs ร_ร
even on heavy mobs it's nice to soothe a bit the dmg for the tank
the reduced dmg is not bad either
if they can be silenced tho
i mean cant any mob be silenced?
Not all, a few cant
it just counts as a blanket yeah? they are still silenced you just dont interrupt
Maybe you are right
What about bosses?
nah bosses cant be silenced, just interrupted it think
Is it best to stack finishers into elaborate planning if possible? or spread them out making sure we gain max duration of it for the dots or whats the deal with that?`:)
@tight anvil some are immune to silence and don't take the reduced damage probably because it says "silenced mobs deal reduced dmg", unsure if the immune ones deal reduced dmg or not for sure
Is there a /say macro/wa for Shroud so that my group knows when it is ending?
oh you just remembered me
i wanted to make a weakaura for the group i usually run m+ with
let me know if you find anything that works
Sorry if a noob question but why in the opener does it mutilate after the second garrote? shouldnt you be 5cp already?
why is sharpened blade good when stacked but bad when alone ?
With 3 SS, you're going to be at 3cp, so you mut for 2cp to get 5cp rupture
and I'm also running 3SS
wait the 2nd one
2 garrotes would be 5(6) cp though
The only thing I can think of is adds
how much fatal damage can cheat death soak on 1 hit?
I thought it was any amount.
14.5k average dps for a +3 
How good is twist the knife?
on m+ how do you play around CT in m+? 3x garrote into rupture or CT?
without the azerite trait i shouldnt use poisoned knife right?
only to reapply your poison on a target you can't reach
@fervent beacon I FRIGGIN CAN'T MAN THEM BRINGING THEM LASERS ON ME ALL THE TIME
which lasers?

sup bro's. Another fallen Outlaw here coming to check you guys out due to incoming nerfbat. What is the best pointer you got for someone that isnt documented in a guide or w/e?
what
thats a hard question to answer, we usually put in guides everything that is going to be useful
or else whats the point of a guide?
Hello new to assa in M+ in order which condition do you use Crimson tempest over several rupture ?
I do it at 3+
general agreement is that 3 or more targets in CT
vigor, 
vigor for ST only
Is there a consensus on traits for pvp?
Class theorycrafting community, latest simulation results and resources -based on SimulationCraft- for World of Warcraft.
how do you explain this
then
I don't need to explain shit, we've been testing and trying everything Sub friend.
you are free to try what you want though
what guide is most up to date then .leo.?
the one in the title of the channel
you can sim a different number of target situations
yes
but a dungeon is not only a single pull
overrall vigor pulls ahead
and thats that.
should i save vanish for my 2nd exsanguinate?
@lone junco can answer all your rotational questions better than anyone here I think
Okaaay. How does FoK work for Assassination? Sometimes I get 1 CP, sometimes 5? But I always hit all targets
Thats why I am asking
Because the guide suggests using it over Mutilate with 2 targets
if they crit, they will give you cp
fok itself is 1cp but if they crit, you get extra cp out of it
@rough knoll im referring to the icyveins guide

๐ค
Using IV guide 
is it not up2date? for Sub the icyveins guide is very good. thanks for laughing at me for trying to get information dickhead
Everyone speaking about exsang today...TB is still way to go?
np dude 
Seal Fate Passive, If you crit you get 1 cp
!singuide
@frosty iron for m+ it is very much likely overall CT will be better than poison bomb unless you turn into a poison god the whole dg and proc like a madman, but regarding the 3x shrouded suffocation, you just gotta have it to know how disgusting it is man
Well the better guide is on the top
@gloomy stump yeah i figured thangs ๐
Mutilate hits 2 times can crit twice, FoK can crit as many as you hit
Yeah I just didnt think FoK is considered "melee"
hello, anyone have the link on azerite armor and which trait it gives us? I cant seem to find the page with the overview ๐ฆ
Can someone message me and explain how to add text to my energy bar in elvui? Iโve read a couple guides and havenโt gotten it to work. I just want to know how much energy I have when playing
and hwere it drops

@spiral furnace thanks for your time. Now what I was looking for tho ๐ฆ
How is Sin performing in m+ regarding bossdps, aoe burst and longer trash fights with 2/3/4+ targets atm?
not*
splenditly... single target m0 burst i have like 18K ๐ and on trash with like 3 targets, its insane with 2 + SS traits
on longer ST fights its kinda lower than sub but I kinda like the consistant playstyle
I hope after nerfs on reset it will look nicer for us
Im playing Sin now in M+ and in raid tomorrow to check out the numbas. It seems really ez htho
compared to sub
I have 1 SS
it is
tho there's no guaranteed full cp fok/sstorm
but energy regen is worlds better
Any other fallen outlaw rogues desperately scrambling for replacement azerite traits for deadshot :<?
I should then go garrote/rupture/garrote
Vendetta/mutilate/toxic blade
on m+ trash
Envenom
You just slap your dick on the garrote button tbh
even on cd, you still slap it
I'm doing 11-12k overall with sub(per m+), so i'm wondering what sin deals overall too at ~350
what are yall thinking after the 5% outlaw and sub nerfs... assassination gonna be superior?
Overall depends heavily on how big you pull
Normal pug pulls
I've reached 15k overall with assa, but i have also done it with sub ๐คท Sometimes its 12k
@true warren Outlaw going to be awful in raids now.
@rose wharf i did a bunch of +5 +6 yesterday and i'd overall 12~15k, depends much if the tank let's you restealth or doesn't screw up pulls
5% and 20% deadshot nerf. LUL
outlaw will be fine on cleave/adds fights
DS is ridic, I was hitting 40k crit PS all of the time
i went from 14k overall dps in outlaw to 9k now in sin. I am going to cry
idk, sin feels really good to me
Of course it was ridic, people were triple traiting it. But spec will heavily suffer now
i think I just cant play it to the fullest atm, not used to dotting everything up
its almost like Blizzard didn't have alpha/beta to test these
anyone got a beautiful PUT YOUR FUCKING POISONS ON weak aura
I played sin in legion just wondering if it's worth giving up subs utility regarding stuns
that'll do
my first 2s arena of the day i forgot to put poisons on
but it was vs shadow priest so it didn't matter
can you send me that ongbak xD
And is it poison bomb or the aoe bleed talent for m+? And is exsang a thing now?
i believe i took it from this WA here, just delete the others and you need to put the bruh1.tga on the folder it says https://wago.io/BycCWhX4Q
https://wago.io/Sk3jg2XVX <<<<< Energy Bar / CP WA https://wago.io/B1v5137N7 <<<<< ElvUI Profile Ass - Envenom (aurabar) Ass - Virulent Poison
@rose wharf crimson tempest likely is much better for m+ if your tank isn't afraid of pulling a bit more
Luxthos rogue wa's are very nice
and exsang, depending on your stats, can sim better than tb, in my case it already does by 100dps
Just ran with PB by mistake - I prefer CT
How come your garrote hits for so much :o
3x SS
^
yea, i can't ever be a fan of pb anymore
SS?
!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 actually still bugged?
azerite trait
yeah
well some reported it still was yesterday so i believe so
so only vanish > garrote after the opener
just have to be careful to not reapply after your opener
this is under blizz radar so let them keep it that way if it means no nurfz :X
until they drop off
So is that an azerite trait?
yes
yes
trash is generally dead after full garrote duration anyway
ah, what's your ilevel?
351
^ ยฒ
oh?
do we have dely the 3rd exsang with vanish? (assuming a long fight duration)
Often enough tanks are pulling only 3 or 4 mobs what crippels aoe dps imensly
This might be a stupid question but what's the point of having a 3rd Shrouded Suffocation azerite bonus?
Right
Knew it was a stupid question
๐
for some reason I only focused on the CP and forgot it increased dmg as well
No such thing as a stupid question :)
the cp doesn't stack anyway right
you'll know why it is so good after you get three, trust me
well mythic dungeons can only be done once a week, if you don't get lucky, try heroics to get the trait pieces
on m+ how do you play around CT in m+? 3x garrote into rupture or CT?
and normal fetid devourer is pretty easy to pug
aaah 355 galecaller's feelsgood
I just dinged 120 yesterday. I got some friends that will help me catch up so boosts are incoming for me ๐
why is this chat full of blue guys?
@rich olive don't recall who but someone said a bit earlier that ct right after 3rd garrote would be better, no clue as to why
5% nerf

can u get the trait from m+ aswell
OHISEE
Hence the blues ๐
We're getting ready
i do play the three specs @calm barn , sub just appears before the other two no clue why @_@"
@tropic pike azerite gear doesn't drop from m+, just the weekly chest but that's a whole new rng ...
then you need to ask for a neutral role
oh
which has the most digusting color
is there sucha thing?? @_@@"
cough
I like to disgust people
I really like blue though
Nightly is telling me it's a dps increase to drop my 340 SS+ Heed my Call helm for my new 355 Laser matrix+ Earthlink does that sound accurate?
mine is neutral
@daring imp that dps meter you linked. Is that single target?
or is SS not being acounted for correctly?
@wind totem it was linked by @delicate root to show his poison bomb damage through a dungeon ( ~3% )
So AoE. Got it
Lol my deadly poison is never that high
@strange python maybe for pure single target, the sim is correct, no way in hell i'd ever trade my 3x SS in ANY mythic+ i'd do in the future
you'd be a fucking fool to trade 3 SS in +
^
its like asking to cut off your big dick
ayy
do you play m+ with PB or with tempest cuz everyone says smth else
dropped 360 canon ball runner trinket... man does it suuuuux
i'll be running CT all day today, and based on what people that run CT told me i'll love it for more aoe dmg
Am I understanding this right? Do not apply any garottes to any 4th targets whatsoever until SS garottes have run full duration?
yes
or vanish after 3rd garote and continue aplying until 6
may i ask what total damage you guys usually have as sin in +5 mythics?
yes, when they nerf SS
i ran a lot of +5 +6 yesterday and was doing 12~15k, depends on wether the tank gave you enough window to restealth or did shitty pulls or not (351 ilvl)
@crimson swift I had 13,9K total in shrine 5 +1 with 349 il
I'm sitting around 5-8k at 345 ilevel :/
Yea coming here from outlaw
Really not sure why my dps is so low
Trying to get a handle on things early
true
Iโm usually about 13-14k overall
honestly... if I had good tank , doing 2 runs with outlaw and assa now I would have probably more total dmg as outlul
With lust I can fuck on bosses with 3 SS
im not sure whether to play sin or outlaw for pvp
How are you guys pulling above 10k? Are u all on 3 ss?
probably outlaw for the utility, but spec doesnt matter till like 2200 so ?Dยจ
Sin for PvP for sure
play what you enjoy
@soft island do you have 3x ss?
im usually at around 11-13k with 2xss
both lol
No I have 2x SS and DD
Outlaw got neutered in pvp
But on bosses with lust itโs ez to get like 20k
Is exang better for ST then poison bomb? Or is Exang for multi target?
Bte and Deadshot do less damage to people
not true, I play 3 snake eyes in pvp and its godlike and wasnt practicly touched except 5 percent
Couple with the nerfs on Sept 11
exsang? you mean CT? @exotic frigate
sept 11!
I am running as TB tho, coz it sims 300dps higher for me
with 3 SS it would be higher probably BUT I have good stats for it kinda...
@daring imp you run exeang over tb?
yes most people are running exsang atm
it's better for ST and MUCH better for m+ priority killing
been trying to get the hang of it back again for the last three hours
Oh had no idea
not quite there yet but it's a work in progress
Will be good for infested I take
for exsang when do we clip envenom and when do we clip EP?
exa is easy... you will get it quick
Hello everyone, i was checking out Sin rogues on Warcraft logs, and found one that ranked pretty high on Fetid. When i checked his/her armory, they were rocking 3x Sharpened Blades. Anyone know why?
coz its quite decent trait?:D
thats noobe, right?
it got nerfed tho
@soft island yea i mean after the opening, it's quite easy for trash packs but i still don't* get the timing to sync it all on bosses ร_ร
kk, we could tag him so he can justify his choice ^^
@daring imp basily if less than 2 trash packs remaining, hold exa, 3 - 4 packs, hold vanish for boss
or dont hold it anddo shit dps on boss and then good dps on trash.... doesnt matter much
haha i meant on the 2nd vendetta/vanish/exsang on bosses
in low keays you can use it on cd practicaly... it depends on tyranical weeks in higher keys... and by the time u will get it anyway
yea just gotta practice a bit more
!commands
/cast [talent:6/3] Exsanguinate; [talent:6/2] Toxic Blade
easy, take longest CD and hold it for that, and its vanish and vendeta... so do 2x exa and hold for big pewpew
are we talking m+?
@sinful lotus it's great for single target, also helps out that you have downtime on that boss, the trait hels a tiny bit on that hectic run around the whole room fight
@sudden canyon
thanks
KB 
oh yea
if we are talking m+, you expend your cooldowns off refresh unless you know it won't be up for a boss again, and you need it for the boss
its TB
Is toxic blade for ST and Exang for multi target?
exsang is also on one target only
no, its on what you sim the highest
castable* on one target only
Thank you ever so
you should basicly fit 5x ish TB into rotata before your cds are UP again, talking vanish and vendettas
couting the opener too... so 4x without opener
you will hold vanish and vendetta for like 8 seconds before TB comes back up... if u wanna hold TB and not big cds, you will fit it in only 3x and then hold TB for 18 seconds
Can someone explain to me why Garrote -> Rupture -> Garrote is the opener?
Has anyone had any good usage of wound poison in bg's? Seems like the minor wound talent is the way to go, but i feel like im pushing through heals a lot
Doensnt Garrote refresh / overwrite itself?
yes
you get 24s instead of 18 and theres a lot of combo point buildingf (poisoned wire for example)
@daring imp Ty for the answer ๐
I think u mean iron wire
no, there's azerite traits that give you crit to mutilate off garrotes
oh
Ok exange build for m5s is a joke. Finished ST bosses on 28k dps
something like 900 crit rating on next 2 muts with my build
exsang sucks, it's really finnicky too
i used to love it but honestly it's just soooo easy for it to be disrupted by mechanics
Any answer on the garrote rupture garrote opener? i dont get it
just for the CP from the azerite trait?
@spiral furnace subterfuge means it does more damage especially when using shrouded suff
you us that to maximalize garrote from subterfuge buff, if u use it once it gives u 18s gartoe, and 2x its 24s garrote, more dps
With shrouded your highest damage ability is garrote (by a pretty wide margin too)
having 24 seconds of garrote is better than 18 seconds
When using exsanguinate in the normal rotation do we need to reapply full bleeds to get max damage or does it make the bleeds tick faster even if applied after?
If you apply a bleed after exsang it gets overwriten (ie removes exsang)
Which is bad
You want as lengthy bleeds as possible before you exsang
How do you dps in dungeons as ass?
So is it worth it then to refresh even above pandemic?
Do I just multidot everything and fan?
Yeah you garrote 3 targets from stealth, rupture everything, fon envenom
With SS
I guess you would still do it with subterfuge and no SS tho
that's what i was doing but it didn't look very effective
I have 1 SS, did 3 garrotes, rupture + exang on the last
for weak trash you want to switch to marked for death and spam that + envenom + fok
but mythic+trash, usually rupture+garrote EVERYTHING
anyone have feeling on wound poison? still not as good as Deadly in pvp right?
You can take that pvp talent that integrates your wound into deadly
Deadly is best for deeps though
to add to aikurou's questions. When simming for m+, do I use 5+ targets? cause only then is where crimson tempest becomes useful
Almost as bad as Vantus Rune : G'hunn
@stable coyote cant answer that question, but dont rely on sims only in that case. ct is reliable on demand aoe, while pb is not
CT is more damage than rupture at 3+ targets.
