go 3x SS
where do i get ss helm? ๐ฆ
I was just talking purely in uldir
cant wait for tomrrow when people get 385 gale callers and some people get 385 bracers with like mastery vers or someshit. RNG FIESTA
Cowl of Fluid something
Machinations
Dude, i lost it when i heard u get 1-3 items
Cowl of Fluid Machinations
Yeah
that one
Some people gonna get so lucky
If i get 1 piecee that sucks
Dungeon โ Shrine of the Storm โ Vol'zith the Whisperer
im gonna be so mad
Exeo
And someone gets 3x 385
Same, did warfront on my dh and got 370 weeep
ur obv just not skilled enough
I've done 35 m+ feelsbad
Game is good btw
same im using a 340 and a 345 from conquest
Samee, both my daggers aree pvp
My outlaw friend rolled sin to troll me
And they got 360 daggers from kings
Really cool game
when you turn in conquest quest u can choose dagger even though it says axe for me ?
Yes
Yup!
I still beat everyone in my guild that has 370 weapons
bg best way for conq? rated or casual
word
is their nerf enough?
wtf O_o
That fucking basilisk just snapped my arm off
deathroll ๐ข
was doing 3s with some buddies. none of us had pvped. queueing into bigbrain hunters and arms just smorcing our disc priest. dude raged after 4 arenas
Understandable
Go in twos
Even after nerfs, those classes are the best
I raged off after 1600
I hit 2.1k last expac
Oof
This whole xpac has been tilt
I remembere killing a BM pet, him standing for 30 sec trying to revive it
And he still did 20% more dmg than me
Is there a loot table for the warfront boss?
Yes
Cant wait for my m+cache to be a 380 shit piece
Under world bossees
unloading all my CDs into prio target, then watching their HP go down 5% because of disc priest....FeelsBadMan
And the other rogue in my guild to get 3 daggers
Oh is the end of scenario boss considered a worldboss?
Yea, doesnt he give gaurenteed 370?
I think he drops everything with honorbound in the name
Cool thx
No, thats the queest
340 guarabteed
But the quest is the same
Guaranteed
Is sin gong to pass sub/outlaw with the nerfs?
eeveerything with honourbound
Yees
Frick
that would've happened regardless
because sin always gets better with gear
its the same thing every xpac
Sin is big brain spec
wtf
Wow
Sub is biggest brain speb OL is reptile brain spec
Sub is pretty eaesy
Nice ring
Sub is boring
You dont even have to manage dancees with current talent seetup
It's just blow your load ever x seconds
Also, this was my first titanforge luck in 2 expansions
385 if it drops azerite
385 ss piece
i still need my +10
Would be p o g
fuuuuuuck
not enough time in a week
So unlucky
i have a +8 Waycrest rn D:
what level will your heart have to be to unlock traits on a 385? ๐ค
not looking forward to it
you bois think running hidden blades would be useful for g'huun
so that i can get extra burst when its needed
hihi ^_^
Probably similar to mythic uldir heart lv
gimme that haste
Thee crit for AoE also
thats like
Big as hell
hell ya i see that 37
stupid non ssin question. If i do a M4, can i still do a higher one before the lockout?
I can already seee myself being stuck on 3x 340 ss thee next couple of months
im spending my bonus rolls on that chest
Holy shit your gear
spam +5s my dude
I did
with all leather group?
feelsbad
@mellow pier
Idk if its a tooltip bug
But the chest says it has 2x gutripper
on it
They all have 2x secondary
huh
gotta be a bug
Must bee visual yeah
Do you run custom APL?
14.7k with 362 is super good
also, why did evereyone get the fucking azeritee headpiece
can't get the single SS hat that exists in this game to drop to save my life
having 1 chance / week to get the only azerite piece that exists with the right trait in a slot is dumb
Where's it from?
SS hat is from shrine of the storms
Shrine
soo assi the way to go now?
your stats are fucked @proven ice
4 leather group and it didn't drop for any of us 2 lockouts in a row
im going assassin for prog
thats what im thinking i like both specs
do azerite gear roll over for specs or do you need more gear if you are swapping specs?
You need more gear unless u wanna pay to respec ur gear
which gets expensive over time
Just have 3x spec sets and switch specs after every add pack
To reset cooldowns
Also works in m+0
Cant change gear or anything in m+
m0
where do you go to respec your gear
Transmog dudes friend
transmog area
oh yeah
ive played with a couple assi rogues in m+s and they do work.
im still sub atm
Assa is sick in m+
so m+s would you go PB
depends on the m+
got ya
so straight ST fight do you guys toxic blade or exsan

once i get set up as assa ill sim to see whats best but just want to get an idea
hmm aha
fried who doesnt raid or run mythics but only colets mounts/pets and xmog got this just now
@onyx wind got ya are those bis traits i assume
should i have 3/3 of garrote trait
i have 2bits and another or something i cant remember right now as sub
doing prety fine with only 2/3 ... so noz a condition imo
2 is fine
hey i was wondering, can i proc subterfuge from shadowmeld ?
no
thankss
you can use shadowmeld to stealth then apply subterfuged garrotes on mythic+ trash though
is assasination the least dps right now ?
assa isn't even good in pvp
you guys being sarcastic or?
its trash
No it's bad.
lol
Tell everyone you know
assa aoe seems bad too
ok im going to take yalls' word on it
yes
shhhhh bby
I say 2 weeks
just say ss sucks
stock up on sharpened blades jic
= no nerf
atleast SS adds some sort of rotational change
It's pretty terrible to use.
to sin
i would rather use SS in a raid setting i think
SS is so nice
adding a throwing knife into the mix
Vanish is an actual cooldown
how cool
SS puts weight on the opener which is nice in M+ but less exciting over a long encounter
THROWING IN MEELEE
much interactive
CLASS FANTASY GAME DESIGN
such fun
vanish being a cooldown has been true for pretty much a decade. when has it not been a dps cooldown
in wrath
I mean
The best part of SS is that we actually have a cleave/aoe cooldown now! (vanish)
the mechanics of why have changed through the years though
2 target bosses are the most fun for me
i mean...SS is trash
Scent of Blood better
in aoe/trash situations (m+) do you just spam CT?
ya'll are toxic lmao they won't nerf anything
i mean at most our bis trait gets nerfed 5-10%
thats why im telling everyone SS is trash
that's it
so Blizz will leave us alone
Blizz runs on hive mindset
Dont makee me do it a third time
wot you mean rerolling
Same startet sub, then farmed 3 Deatshots and then got Triple SS and im happy
yeah but you should be keeping all 3 up anyways
30k on packs and 25 k burst single
What do you meean keeping up
easy life
traits weapons for all specs
you don't have all BiS traits for all 3 specs @onyx wind ?
I do
I have bis traits for all 3
Hey guys, just a quick question, if im specced into CT do i keep it up on ST?
and shuriken set
there you go then
@vivid cedar no CT sucks on ST
not really rerolling then lol
@stuck shuttle thank you very much
I mean i guess youre right
0 targets
this guy
psuree u do on 2 ?
yeah thats what I thought
maybe 3 idk
on 2 targets you keep the dot up, on 3+ you spam it instead of envenom
Should I hold off rolling Sin until I get at least one SS trait?
yees
wait you actually spam it?
it has instant aoe burst dmg, ofc lol
okay nice im disabled
how much % dmg is CT in a m+
So with the nerfs coming out for Outlaw should I switch back to sin?
yeees
Nooo dont switch back to sin
I hate the RNG of outlaw T_T
we all do
Go play feral
kinda glad it got nerefed
I hate the concept of outlaw lmao
alright gn
if i need burst for g'huun lazor beem phase would it be better for me to run HB?
over PB
whoever thought to get rid of combat with insight is a fried cunt.
@ancient sonnet It could work better but PB may be more useful throughout the entire engage
i guess so yeah
its a trade off
but if your group has the dmg for the beginning phase, it should still be fine
@royal lantern would you even bother chucking out ruptures then in m+ if your tank pulls like 8 mobs? just x3 garrotes and spam fok/ct?
tbf i went outlaw and wapped the boss real hard before it gets nerfed
but next week ill be sin 100%
Sometimes when I doโs
DPS
I just spam poisoned knife
Ranged rogue boys
Where is our shadow hunter spec
well, they removed one hunter ranged spec
they should make a rogue ranged spec to compensate
and then ruined it immediately the next expansion
minute of silence for legion survival
easily the most fun melee I've played. ๐ฆ
with 3xSS garrote is enough cus trash is dead
not in like mythic 8+
otherwise you use garrote on cd/keep ~2ruptures on main targets
atleast thats wath im doing, idk if people tell me now that im stupid and doing it wrong
Anyone else noticed Harlans Loaded Dice doesnt proc anymore
there's gotta be a sweet spot for regen tbh
rupture wise in aoe anyways
but it'll be different depending on haste
loaded dice has a pretty low proc rate
they really need to buff the raid trinkets
tbh
dungeon trinkets at 370 > all 385 raid trinkets
so bad
dungeon trinkets and fathom at 355 > everything else
what are good trinkets for assa
Fathoms
galecallers and loaded dice
rocking Fathoms and Plunderbeards Flask with socket 345
fathoms is good for a while
would love to use galecaller also , but the on use trinkets got that damn 20 sec cd when u use the first one
i hate galecallers so much lol
so toxic blades or exsan
m+ set up im looking into now
The damage done by SS its because its bugged or is inteneded to work like that, thinkig to play assa next week because the Sub nerf, but i dont wanna change everything bacause a bugg and the fix it.
i got to see what traits i have when i get home first before i even attempt to go assa
the dmg from ss isn't bugged
!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.
it's bugged when you try to use it on a 4th target
that's the only bug ^
the dmg is intended and should be higher tbh
if the bug gets fixed anyways
!ss

but it is
nice ty @thick jacinth
wait, what did u just say @stuck shuttle
sorry i think disc updated late
I have no idea how i @ you Hecktix, was meant to @ Xegony
lol
yeah...
fuma was asking if the sudden assassination craze was due to a bug
No
well atleast that's what I gathered from what he asked
and I said no, the only bug is the 3x garrote
And sin is already really strong in m+ cause of SS
trait or not it was always gonna be better in higher keys tbh.
outlaw is putrid tbh
I could google this but i dont want to. What weapon enchants should I use?
deadly and quick
haste crit
Should i use crimsom tempest in M+, or stay whit PB
actually unsure of which to put on mainhand myself
it doesnt matter
but raidbots didn't pay any attention to it
rip ok ty friends
enchant wise that is
yeah
i think someone said haste in mainhand and crit in offhand
but i think that's bs
shouldnt matter
very helpful. thanks fam
so idk
but if it doesn't matter then it doesn't matter.
i suppose the only time it matters is like outlaw if you're running sword/dagger
i have haste in mh in sin, and crit in mh in outlaw
kings rest trinket macroed to vanish or vendetta? :>
2 min
you can macro it if you need but depending on content you're doing it might be better to have it stand alone
using it on cooldown pretty much in m+ that's all
yeah i would never macro that
plus on use are off the gcd
so you don't have any issues unless you're trying to free up keybinds
its just bc im lazy
The Exs opener does so much less than my tb opener
idk if im doing something wrong but same thing everytime
Saame
Sounds like youre doing something wrong
How do you get more than like 20k as tb
garr/rup/garr/ven/mut/rup exs?
wtf
i usually get like 25k with tb
Havent done exs in raid yet so no log of it
opener feels clunky af for me but I need so much more haste haha
sin starts too feel good at 13-15%
im at 15% haste but exs opener just feels worse
17% haste, but no ss traits, feelsbadman
I mean the energy gain from those extra % arent very massive
16% haste and 3 ss feels good .. but never tryed ex i have to day
was over 30k opener
what do you sim
13.5k ish
if I get a haste crit ring from my cache im gonna nut
both my daggers are 340
and both my rings are vers mastery
yeah im 359
you sim 500 higher than me and im higher ilvl
so... assa best spec now? xD
nah
sin sims higher in mythic gear
ah so sub is still better?
The thing you want from the weekly cache is helm/shoulders with SS
sub not better tbh
As you cant get that anywhere else
yeah
Can you post your sim so i can have so to compare?
would be huge to get a ss piece
CT or rup first on aoe pack?
i was playing sub, then i decided to take a look at my assa traits and legit every azerite piece i have has SS
yeah if you get it
even the ones in my bags
CT
wouldn't mind a thicccc gale callers either but
should i go with wound poision against healers in arena?
shroud is suffocation right
so i assume sub will be better until later in the tier?
amaterasu imagine your opener with galecallers too
oof
u are 359 and u sim 13.5k?
I sim 13.1k haha
im 355 equipped with 3ss
40% mastery btw
oic
i sim 13.9 at 358
dam your stats really are jacked up
I only have 1 SS
yeah i have too much mastery as well
but 370 azerite pieces > SS trait so it's whatever
im only 352 and I sim at 13.5
sitting at 17%crit/15%haste 7% vers 28% mastery
you're optimised af then
so thats huge
so even after nerfs tuesday sub will be better until later in the tier?
Play whatever you like dude
sub sims went down like 1k
all specs are viable really
but it is still viable
assuming both your rings are haste crit/ crit haste heck?
nah, haste crit/haste mast
i was at 14k in outlaw sim but swapped to sin
im prob gonna play sub in mythic uldir tuesday to be safe
yeah that's pretty wild
until i know for sure assa is legit
my sim statweight saying haste > agility lol
i like sins playstyle so much more
raidbots is blocked at work for me. ๐ฆ
unlucky
haste> agi for me too
but i have so much versatility that is holding me back
from outlaw gear
i feel you
yeah
yes totally random
im the same way with mastery. im at like 26
i hate that
i know its gonna leave me feeling depresso
how dumb is that
watch the other rogues in my guild will get 3 items
and ill fail trial
ye
bet
and every ilvl upgrade i get is mastery
if only lmao
i have 375 ring with guess what
and be done with it
m a s t e r y
feelsbad
literally I can buy the 310 crafted ones
i kind of want assa to be good, but rn even after nerfs sub looks to be better
assa is bad? ๐ฎ
no
why?
true true
!ss

ghuun assassination is very good because of iron wire
have shoulders and chest so far
i got all 3 .. last one today lucky as fuck !
Should I be running crimson tempest in M+? and at what number of targets should it be used?
im always top deeps in m+
yes @nova nest
i mean as sub i sometimes top trash, but im always top on bosses
w
i just switched to assa from outlaw and this doesnt feel too well ๐
i dont do dmg
if you're topping trash as sub
do you have SS?
your dps suck
i have 1 SS ๐ฆ
reeeeep
well, outlaw and sin are 2 different playstyles
mainly talking arena
outlaw is more button mashing, sin is more waiting and do the right stuff
If you top dmg, you suck? Explain?
whats SS?
I didn't say he did.
Ah, yeah haha
If you top dps on trash as sub
my bad
anyone know of a weakaura for sharpened blades?
I'm dumb
Sub destroys everyone else on priority targets though ofc
are you suppose to wait till 30 stacks of sharpeneded blade to use it?
i have 2x blade in the shadows and 1x inevitability and my dmg is much lower but i think i may be bad at sub haha
Sub takes some getting used to if you come from, say, Outlaw
Being used to clicking something all the time is a bad habit as sub
@nova nest I think sim uses it at 29 to avoid wasting stacks, unsure tho
is there a good tracker for sharpened bladeS?
Why is shrouded suffocation so good if it only counts for the single garrote done out of stealth?
because you should be using subterfuge
^
which allows for 3 empowered garrotes
So you can garrote 3 targets
Which is insane
Laziest out-of-stealth aoe burst ever
As long as you land 3 SS garrotes you're good
!ss

or vanish and garrote 3 more
Yeah ofc
in big pack
Rarely pull that this week considering the affixes haha
is elaborate planning always bis? i saw a dmg drop when i switched in mob pulls
i simmed higher with master posioner but thats cause i have tons of mastery
MP will become better
amaterasu wouldn't that make the bug occur?
okay, thanks
no
not if you do it on seperate targets
the bug occurs if you garrote outside of subterfuge window
so you can vanish and have 6 garrotes poppin' off/
casting within subterfuge window does not cause the bug
Yeah
/nut
It's brutal
so basically to get most out of it do 3 subterfuge garrotes and then dont cast the one out of stealth until they are off?
Yeah your dps goes from like 20K to 8K in a second
Makes you wanna cry when you see that you only got 1 CP from the garrote you landed
And you get the CD
are the pinned messages still "current"? seems 3 days after release, people would come up with an update by now for each spec
happens when you want to multi garrote shit that's runing around
yeah I need like a big fuck off weakaura to let me know im still in subterfuge
haha
Hahahaha
If nothing has changed why would there be updates @steep orbit ?
you can get 3 garrotes in subterfuge
well, is 3 days into the expansion really reliable?
that's how you know you're still in subterfuge
How much time do we have with subterfuge?
raiding hadnt even been out yet, new methods may have been tested
enough for 3 garrotes
3s
With my ms, I can surely do 2
well you have a little more time than you think
its not hard to get 3 off
since the counter doesn't start until after the first garrote
yeah 3 is easy
so you have 3s to do 2 garrotes
You have 3 seconds to do 2 casts lol
just use tab to switch target but u should alredy be doing that bh
You can have 400 ms and still do it fine
tbh*
ive seen some raiders in my day that would struggle with that tbh
Alright, gonna do some tests
normal raiders btw
is exang simming higher for you guys?
no
yes
yes
yes
Yes
not for me
hmm
is crimson tempest worth on only 2 mobs?
depends on your stats
I wonder what the breakpoint is then
seems it gets better with gear
is it worth keeping up crimson tempest for 1 target?
no
no
waste of cp
3 or more
atleast 2
But why is SS top even in single target?
atleast for a boss
bc it's thicccc
because it does the most dmg?
ty
why else would it be?
because garrote is doing alot of damage lmao
jingle don't be passive aggressive bro he chillin
ye bro but that's kinda a weird question
But you only get 2 of them maybe in a M+
huh
sin rogue is a dot based class, ofc 1 of the dots will be a high dps source
bro what
Yes you dont get a lot of empowered garrotes
But garrote does like 4x the damage when empowered
So its worth it
everyone take double dose quick
agreed
ye bottom tier now
dog shit tier in fact
Pretty sure that nerf also made it stack with subterfuge, but i could be wrong
so not really a nerf
crimson tempest 2 or 3 targets?
the damage wasn;t being applied at all
then they realize it with the fix
and saw the dmg was too insane
then nerfed
honestly just take poisoned wire
loll
is the crimson tempest target thingo in pins?
definitely gonna be bis
i hear Rezan's fury is good
seems to be asked a lot.
just wait for gear dude
Rezan's fury bis
Exsg affects all targets with empowered garrote?
no
no
no
st only
just your currentl taret
12,813 - w/o exsanguinate, 12,942 /w exsanguinate... oh damn didn't expect that much increase.
Oh, buff Exsg!!! ๐
still that design flaw hurts me to this day
That would be neat
oof
YEEZUS
exsang effect ct?
they would nerf us to the ground
Yes it affects CT, internal bleeding too
Garrote should stack the same way Unstable Affliction does Kappa
vom
smh they should let rogues be in charge of class design
we'll make it balanced
bet
Hell yeah
make FOK apply both bleeds
Any good rogue streams live?
too bad master assassin isn't in a different tier
right lol
the rogue that does m+ with shakib streams
like
who the fuck needs hidden blades
is still huge
throw that shit down there
honest just let me at a mythic boss im so keen
it's neat but some bosses are kinda boring
hopefully assa will pull ahead of sub
Yeah, some of them are nice. I really hate Mother
mother is free
telling you right now sass will be ahead in mythic week

maybe after nerf tomorrow sin will pull ahead
honestly, all 3 are still very close
you can already sim the nerf on the nightly build
and anyone that had the azerite pieces handy
are already simming higher
we should just be happy were not in fire mage level right now
Simc is already updated with the nerfs to
All my ass traits suck only 1 SS
i was sub
which is the weird part
i might play assa for progress
since it will be better
@jovial vault u need to RNG harder
God I wish I played outlaw for all of our heroic prog only time I rolled 5s were when we reset the boss
Or I rolled a 5 and it's a wipe right after
My ass and sub sims 200dif so I might as well just go play ass for mythic tomorrow
If I am in M+ and using Subterfuge Garotes do I cap combo point in favour of getting three empowered garotes out?
Even with 1 SS
kk thanks
even on ST
o kk ty
is there any sims for using thistle tea vs potions? #cheap
if the stars align tomorrow with azerite armor from chest ill play assa
and select whatever buffs you want to have
oh noce ty
So I'm looking at a top parse on Talc, and his garrote dmg is insane compared to mine, what gives?
it shows him running toxic blade
29.5
sub sims 1k dps higher
359 yikes
1.2k actually
youre using wrong talents
take out nightstalker
and get subterfuge
your dps will shoot up
kk
slightly off - topic but how r people gettin so many sanguicell fast ?
(for legs, boots)
All 8 norm and heroic bosses @minor sleet
Norm gives 1 per I believe heroic gives 10
oh dang, I didn't know that many on hc. cheers
what's the play with exsang? use on CD or something trickier
if i can get 1 more ss trait
@hushed sphinx line up with full pandemic bleeds
i might play assa full time
@hushed sphinx get your 2:20 timing right
@surreal rivet remember to use subterfuge correct ;p
it only sims literally 30 dps higher so if it's harder to pull off properly I won't bother
Why do we overlap Rupture so close in the opener?
for full pandemic
(3 garrote while it available on 3 targets)
esp important for exsang
ah ok thanks
@minor sleet pm me how i use it correctly xD havent played it since middle of legion
What do you guys do in M+ when there's just a million little adds and you have no chance of getting any bleed time on them?
ok m8
Like temple, doing the orbs
me since cata, but this discord vry helpful
or use CT if you have it
Gotcha.. I feel like you get gimped on energy then w/o your bleeds ticking on venomed adds
Gotcha, thanks!
Not many encounters like that anyway right
^
I normally play outlaw but I like sin the best
You guys think they are going to add more spec based traits in the future?
