I've given up on not having shitty stats
array is like 70 of 2ndary stat only atm
it goes to 150
yeah it's 150
depends on how many bosses you killed
really?
yeah thought so also
Before using Exsang, is there an optimal / minimum amount of time remaining on the debuffs?
both trash and high hp
For single target whats better? Overwhelming power or heed my call? Ravenholdt shows heed my call, but bloodmallet shows overwhelming power by quite a bit
I imagine the extra haste will be better until we get higher base haste
You especially want overwhelm > heed without tb too, right?
I’ve never used Warcraft logs, and someone in my guild was ‘logging’ the raid lastnight, how can I use this to see where I go wrong? So I can improve my AVG score
I can link, if it makes it easier
btw do u guys go with crit/mastery (2 target) or go haste/crit (1 tar)? It's not easy to have high ilvl of both
The way poisons amd bleeds scale with haste, i would think prioritizing that over mastery
@obtuse island https://wowanalyzer.com can help a bit i guess
anyone willing to share their Premium raidbots? 😅
free version doesn't have enough iterations limit 😛
guess you should learn how to use the desktop software
@daring imp that’s actually helped a lot! Cheers
I know how to simpermut but it takes insanely long
Wowanalyzer isn't an exact science tho
It will tell you if you're using your CDs, not if you're using them wrong
I'm simming that currently and all 3 are close to each other on ST and mastery crit pulling ahead the more targets you add
how do u sim m+?
HecticAddCleave / 4 target 40 sec etc
I got a lot of haste on gear, most likely why 😄
whats ur mastery
patch 3 targets puts crit mast way over haste for me
oh thats why mayne
is assassination the strongest spec rn
yes atomic I'd say so
I’d agree with it being the strongest, and probably the simplest concept
I'd say its clearly bis in m+. Uldir has a few very good sub fights where it's not so clear
does anyone no the opener on a 3+ add pull
^
I played all three and find Sin the easiest to play
@dusky rose garrote as much as you can, CT, and focus mt
is there a reason the tool tip for SS is 65 dmg and not 511?
I originally thought sub would outperform sin in m+ cause of infested but the way all the dungeons are mapped out and how packs are handled at 10+ sin really shines
on raidbots
Even though that means wasting combo points?
Yes, the damage is worth the cp
outlaw is easier :D
you don't have to manage anything or watch dot durations for re applying. 5 points roll > 5 points bte (deadshot) > deadshot on proc > dispatch > ss
@tawny shell weird thing about how tooltips are displayed
takes it for base0ilvl item
not for the ilvl of the actual item
Okay, when is it better to use CT over Poison Bomb?
That's kind of my point
word
Uh, next week sqyla
It was better last week too, no ? Necrotic and sangua with so much kiting. One would think CT > PB in that situation.
@undone sandal I'd say in m+ always
Well fort vs tyrannical is really the difference
outlaw is clearly better than sin in m+
Trash just flops this week
Right on, how many targets does it need to be before it's actually benefitial to maintain CT?
Spending cps on ct is less ruptures which is less energy, which is less fok, which is less poison dmg
Which is less ep uptime as well
any addon to make rupture more visible on targets?
Should I use the haste troll spell on ex?
So rupture on 3 tar is prio befote CT? In m+
If I'm running ct I drop 1 rupture before ct usually. But it's all pack specific and how energy starved you're going to be
What's the target area you start using fok as combo builder instead of mut?
Like were a dot/resource class, so time to death of mobs is just as important as target# when you're making decisions
are we supposed to be clipping Elaborate planning buff? or just keep maximum uptime of it?
man, I love an hate galecallera
That a new pokemon?
sure is
Can any one tell me how you how open one trash in mythic+ with ss x 3
garotte everything
3 garrote, afk
g g g rupture
avoid the 4th garorte out of stealth if the bug is still present
are you guys running tb or exg for dungeons and single target?
you want to take advantage of the 3 sec subterfuge window for garrot
did anyone know the answer to twintoe's question
What's the target area you start using fok as combo builder instead of mut?
I found it mate, 3+ targets
i find fok clunky af with low crit unless theres lik4 + adds
!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.
Just stack crit 
ahh that what happend last night in raid lol
It might be low apm but coming from sub - sin has some more complexity to min/maxing rotation imo
do you use an addon to keep track of the dots in aoe situations ? I have some problems there and get confused 😄
probably just gotta get used ot it @sleek iron
if you play tb it's just another cp generator, exsang has a bit more depth* tho
Yeah I’m going exsang
The first opening is easy - it’s how to use the second exsang efficiently so it’s syncs with the third with vendetta/vanish
Garrote > 5 cp rupture > exsang is hardly much depth 😄
Depending on your haste stats you might not have optimal timing to do that for the second exsang
depends on the fight too
definitely more depth than "hit tb on cd" @cunning pebble
Haha, yea okay 😄
that reminds me
What if I had 10sec left on garrote and 6 second on rupture and my exsang cd comes up?
Do I wait till I can refresh
are you guys running exsg in m+ too?
Or do I just cast exsang to sync
You need to plan better then
hit 2~3cp beforehand to ensure full pandemic when refreshing rupture
If you get 2 5cp ruptures it’ll be different than 2x 4cp rupture
whats better. TB or Exsang
I dare to FoK at that point, not sure its beneficial though
Care to explain ongbak?
That’ll extend the rupture to full duration in time for exsang?

i am not sure if doing fok for those extra 4s on rupture is good tho
i mean, it's not a garrote
gotta check the sim apl to be sure how it does, that or check top parsing logs
Can some1 Tell me How much uptime u try to have on EB?:)
just did a +9 atal dazar, had 73% on last boss
around 70
should be fine
@signal summit you mean elaborate planning?
Yee mate
yea, that one
not all the time, was it?
The FoK for me at 3-4 cp is more a legion leftover for me, but it still feels good specially if it crits to go from 3 to 5 cp
well if you got 3x SS you should definitely have EP up for 100% of its duration
when empowering garrote
Well it was a long time Ago But their was a general rule
I only have 1 sadly
But all azerite is 370 so sims higher than 340
yea for st that should happen
Is there a general rule atm
m+ tho no way, SS is definitely ahead of anything in m+
@signal summit not quite sure, try to pool/chain envenoms back and forth
Ye gotta give assa a try today
trying to have it up before casting that 2nd envenom
atleast will boost envenom dmg while at it
Been sub player until now
but make sure to cast at the very end tho
no worries 😛
is there a definitive answer to what is better, casting Envenom during EP or maxing the Envenom buff uptime? Prob EP right?
what is the max m+ gear you can get from finishing (not the weekly chest)
is it still 5?
oh cool
given how low our crit/resource regen is compared to legion, chaining so many envenoms that you actually overcap on its own buff pandemic is very unlikely
Fair enough, thanks
EP is 10% damage to all sources, while envenom is increased poison application. At the moment with our mastery levels and desire for haste/crit EP should be the better one
WIth more mastery it shifts to wanting envenom uptime which means that you would want to go master poisoner at that point.
Why is the Taloc trinket so bad. I got a 395 last night and it sims worse than my fathoms which isnt even that strong for assassination
Question about EB uptime, so with 3xSS you should have it on 100% fight im bit confused because i am often quite energy dry so i just cant cast finishers with 4-5 CP or should i just cast 1 point finishers just to keep EB going?
@dapper moat 100 during empowered garrotes
You will loose ep and envenom uptime naturally
i assume you're sync'ing vendetta with vanish?
But you learn when this takes place and pool to repeat cycles
@dapper moat always sync with vanish. To play safe i recommend the following
The opener is pre pot, garrote, rupture, garrote, vendetta, mutilate, rupture exang, mutilate mutilate envenom, mutilate mutilate envenom, (garrote is about to expire- when it does) vanish garrote envenom garrote
Rupture will have 3-4 seconds and should allow a 4-5 point rupture once that expires
Then keep ep up for the remainder of the empowered garrote duration
And as its coming off CD and all aligning
Do the exact same even if there is a rupture up already etc
ah ty guys alot here
For the inner ring traits, should i stack them as well or just choose one of each mentioned in the guide?
Will give you very smooth and reliable burst untik you learb how to play dynamically
i'd get those mini prydaz 😛
@tough warren check herodamage website as it changes on item level and stacking
thanks, will do :)
Ideally you want at higher levels ss and overwhelming power
At 340, aslong as you havr 3 x ss the damage is so small its not overly game changing.
If you have one ss trait, you wait for garrote to fall off and vanish garrote x2
i sadly only have 1 SS right now
just switched from sub
and the drop gods werent generous with me yet :P
Cant for the life of me get shoulders to drop with SS 😦
Cleared everything since week 1
@gleaming geyser if you can fit a finisher in to start ep you do
so from what im getting for aoe one three targets: g g g ct g g g ruptures all and then env main targert?
If you vanish and garrote oncr and have 4 cps envenom or rupture(depending on current duration)
It gives a gcd between the reapplication
And extends the garrote once used by an additional tick
@dusky rose only if there is a vanish before the 2nd set of ggg
Else you would drop thr empowered garrotes from the original 3
Also
You want to weave FOK
After the CT
Else you may not have venomous wounds active
Especiallt if using a mouse over macro for garrote
Depending on how long the adds live, you might want to hold the second round of garrotes from vanish back a little
ohhh i seee
@cunning pebble agreed
On ghuun for example
3 tenticles on the right and the big add
night elfs can restealth on trash too
Garrote 3 cyclopeans rupture the big add. Pool a moment vanish garrote big add garrotr cyclopean garrotr big add then rupture cyclopean
Is it correct to hold off on using Exsanguinate until after bleed reapplications? If so, do you refresh bleeds regardless of time left when exsanguinate is off of CD?
If they live long enough to finish an entire rupture. Yes 😃
Fok and re rupture big add vendetta exang
I am able to transition on ghuun on 22k+
@quasi flower outside of the vanish vendetta combo. You want to have max pandemics on both garrote and rupture before exange
But do you refresh to max pandemic regardless of the remaining duration, or hold off until the standard refresh times into the exsang
Even if you reapply garrote and rupture on high duration as the exange will half the duration and increase your dps those combo points become less significant. And delaying exange for them to decrease would be an overall encounter dps loss
Alright, thanks mate
in M+s , do i CT bosses or no?
no
I don't think the guide specifies the number of targets for CT, but I'm assuming its 3 like FoK
is there a m+ rotation guide for Sin? In theory it should be good but whenever i try it i do like.. 50-60% of what i can do in outlaw (almost same level of gear)
do you have 3xSS?
pb or CT for m+?
@azure bear no, only 1
Pb on tyrannical
if not, outlaw will beat you in m+ trash, because the cleave is pretty hard
ok so I should aim for 3x SS before giving it another go, thanks
it gets really good with 3x SS, 2x should be decent, but really good only with 3
(and in the subterfuge window, do you mass garrote or do you garrote -> rupture -> {switch target} ? )
Only got 2

i have 2x SS and 1x Blightborne
garrote>tab garrote> tab garrote
laser matrix is best at ST , and meh on cleave aoe imho
mass garrote, thanks, i'll give it another go soon
actually
I've seen a different opener on ghuun mentioned here
what I've been doing is 6x garrote
5x on cyclopeans
1x on dark terror
and I keep the burst up to transition phase
ending on 25k
don't touch the big guy 🐢
what I also do
is Cloak first dark bargain
and get 2nd one instantluy
so I get 2x dark bargains during vendetta
That ss bug has usually kept me adding another garrotes. But i will now on just garrotte all mobs. Ty 😊

i've seen a progressbar tracking for empowered garrotes on some guy's screenshot but couldn't find that shit anywhere
so weird they haven´t fixed that one yet
like, all the empowered garrotes ( if you have 3 there's 3 bars )
bois I'm simming higher without Shrouded Suffocation trait on single target
feels bad man
2x laser matrix
1x double dose
same
only have 1xSS
simming higher still
i feel like the 2 CP off 1 trait should be worth it alone
well yeah
hey guys are you running ex & posion bomb for uldir ? I've only played pvp sin so I'm looking for pve tlanets 😃
Poison bomb on every encounter
im running exsang
and im running tb since no shrouded traits
I’m using TB but i have a hard time to sync vendetta with vanish because the ss empowered garrotes tick for like 22 secs of vendetta time so the vanish garrote garrote to have a new set of ss empowered garrotes wont be during vendetta, and at that point vendetta and vanish have cd with like 22 sec difference. Any recommendation on this? Should i wait with 2nd vendetta to lign up with vanish?
so without the shrouded traits I should go for toxin blades ?
@verbal sorrel on ghuun why woukd you 6 x garrote with no finish in between ?
just use vanish as its up same as vendeta
@strange python because the garrotes tick for insane damage
more than using a finisher
In essence without a little weaving your cutting your pandemic window
you cant fit in a finisher there
6x garrotes is just enough time to get to position to dark bargain
Or they die before the end of the duration
but dont you loose the empowered garrotes
No
if you go for more than 3 garrotes
I vanish
Im at work so struggle to view it on my phone
You lose if you dont cast more empowered
got it, thanks
So you vanish to make the next 3 empowered
@verbal sorrel on ghuun i transition on around 23k
its a 50k dps burst
yeah thats pretty much the same as me
I can do a bit higher
on this attempt I transitioned 25k
Are you vanishing garroting 3 or 6 targets?
6
Garrote left sie
vanish shadowstep right side
garrote all
and move with dark young
Ah i have to do the big add
to get 2nd dark bargain with cloak
Mines on 3 cyclops and the big add
you can hold off on 2nd dark bargain
if you want to bargain the cyclops
but Ive noticed higher dps when I get 2nd dark bargain
do you guys use toxin blades on cd ? and after how many SS traits should I change to EXsa
but I mean, this is all useless numbers mostly since 1st phase doesnt matter as much
@zealous latch I try to use it before pooling some cp's/energy
but mostly its best to use it on cd
@zealous latch you should sim
@verbal sorrel can you send me a link to your log pag(front page)
Yea
I have a small dilemma, i have 3 Ss pieces 340 and got shoulders from heroic that don't give Ss but they are 370
340 ia simming higher
But then, where do we get 370+ Ss pieces
i use 2ss 1x lazer
or heroic uldir
@verbal sorrel sry for asking again but do you run deep stratagem or vigor ?
Vigor
There is only 1 item that gives Ss in heroic uldir
yup
@verbal sorrel thx ❤
So we are stuck untill...
guys how do i sim myself for m+? 5 targets 40sec ?
TB or Exsang? Opinions
@ruby girder ye thats fine
ok ty
both TB and exsang are fine, sim your self
Dumb question - how does haste affect our bleeds/poisons?
For Raids?
exsang has been simming higher
exsang is best for m+ right ?
So more ticks within the duration = more DMG?
best for everything depending on your gear
@verbal sorrel @severe niche like your logs mine are not as good yet due to my very casual guild. https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/eu/draenor/undérrated
TB for Uldir, Exsang for M+?
it's really up to you
whers tehe ghuun kill bro
Dont ask mate
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/MLv7zymchd243HKJ#fight=last also this is a +2,. 11 atal for m+
if anyone wants to look at it
we have 13 atal we pushing tommarrow
@severe niche we are very casual. We have had like 15 pulls on ghuun
crimson or poison bomb for m+ ?
poison bomb
i like it better
dont ct
Pb
yeah no need for ct this week
Yeah trash just dies so fast this week
rank 5 out of 5k on that atal key xd
Im scared of spiders now
nah
I tried cloaking and soaking all the spiders
but they just reapper
reappear8
Atals easy :) some of the easiesr mechanics in the m+world right now
Everything is easy on a +2 guys.. 😄 😄
atal'dazar and freehold
freehold is so easy if you cheese the last 4 packs
Taloc easiest mythic boss
you can group the last 4 packs of freehold and they will AOE themselves
@cunning pebble he did a +2 on a +11 atal
@cunning pebble cant tell if trolling xddd
Yea I was kidding.. 😄
basically if we get some shit dungeon for teh 14 key
its an insta brick so rip
im so glad i am part of the assassination god race now
we have all ascended with our pinks names 😄
haha
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/pRCyeF4NRcX1dbaLsgVp1U im so close to 15k i can taste it
plz giff me double mother daggers blizzard
i feel like your gear is more optimized than mine ^
just low azerite pieces
wait
385 shoulder
W DF
nvm
fuck that
id rather have 20 more agi pots
i can also try swapping my weapon enchants
cuz
haste is bad now
but
let see if swapping some enchants around could bump me up
i just feel like if i lose any haste
then crit and mastery fall back down
and haste jumps back up
like im in the exact sweet spot
where haste is loosing value atm
if i get a higher ilvl galecallers
Haste prolly better than it sims. You won’t always be in galecaller proc
that could also push crit and mastery
I actually hate the trinket lol
i mean
when i pop it i am
big brain
plan ahead
like on mother
you can use it on cd
to help run against winds
and hit boss
is there an opener i should be using when pulling aoe packs? is it better to spread garrote with subterfuge and then rupture or crimson tempest etc?
Yo so I've decided I'd like to be maining sin rogue and I’m not the top 3 dps (I am in top 5) of my raid group (I’ve been told rogue should always be at the top). I am trying to compare my raid log to a 99 percentile sin rogue. I’ve noticed he does not use toxic blade as much why is this? And in general how can I improve. It is my first time trying to play WoW more competitively and I’m looking to raid mythic at some point in the season.
99 percentile log: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/yaAHZ2CbKnpY9TRq#boss=-2&difficulty=0&wipes=2&type=damage-done&source=20&target=44
im having ALOT of mixed results multi dotting garrote on 3-4 mobs in m+ some times my dps is 20k sometimes its 8k.. i get the feeling that the trait is still bugged using subterfuge.. is this a known bug that iv just missed?

omfg
@severe niche you sim 1.3k above me. You need to work on your logs pal :p
thats is it
yes not until your stealth garrotes fall off
Yea ofc
so many times on two targets i reapply garrote twice on each target to extend the duration.. and i guess iv just been fucking myself
all 4 garrotes is from subterfuge but why the fuck would 4 applications be bugged and 3 not? makes no sense
Cause the fourth one is out of subterfuge
but yea thanks for the heads up... atleast i know why my dmg isnt consistent
whats the best time to exstanguinate ?
subterfuge only last 3 sec
3 globals
3 garrotes
twitch clip me it then bro
.....
you realise
thats what were talking about
you dont use a 4th
@frigid lagoon he did in tha particular fight?
If pack of 4 and you subterfuge garrote 3 and then normal garrote a 4th the first 3 love the damage?
?
whats the best time to exstanguinate ? pls
well i have garrote in stealth on a different key and then garrote out of stealth.. and i click the garrote stealth button 4 times for 4 garrotes before im "out of stealth"
on cd @ruby girder
How come he's used it 6 times
with pandemic refresh
wait wut
@vast edge thats because after you cast the 3rd it doesnt go on cd
so you CAN cast a 4th time
but shouldnt
What was I looking at then?
why is the opener says garrote>rupture>garrote, what is the point of casting two garrotes back to back ?
@severe niche oso its yet another bug then? 
!wa

dots/bleeds maintain 30% duration if refreshed
You do the rupture to proc EP @scenic saffron
with enough time ofc
iv been fucking my dmg for so long LOL
@vast edge no subterfuge just makes garrote have no cd when cast
you just dont want ot cast a 4th cuz you no longer have the buff but the 3rd was cast so it doesnt go on cd
3
or
6
magic numbers
you only have enough globals for that many
trust me
And then you got enough time to get another SS garrote off, to maximize DPS
you should be tracking subterfuge buff with a wa
if you dont see it
dont cast garrote
@severe niche the confused has been that while in subterfuge i use my stealth abilites and in stealth my garrote is on 2 but out of stealth its 1 and i spam 2 4 times which means i was in stealth for the 4 casts but while im saying this.. every time iv cast 4 "in stealth" garrote has been on cd.. so yea i totally understand what ur saying now
whats Assa like in M+?
and thx for explaining it to me so i no longer have garbage dmg
god spec in m+
np trying to help the monkey pack 1 nanner at a time 😄
i mean assassination rogue community :p
memes btw
memes

debating between switching loot spec from outlaw to assa 🤔
debating?
For daggers only?
I switch every boss
yeah but theres a few where u can get both!
Only mother drops both I think
and m+
always assassiantion loot spec dont want to dirty up your inventory with those filth things outlaw rogues call weapons
why you talking about weps, when the real boost come from azerite traits
How come i have 2x ss and exsg sims lower than tb?
yesterday loot day i got a 370 dagger with a socket from the pvp weekly and then the first match of the reset i got a 360 dagger.. both with bis stats.. nice upgrade up from 340 daggers
now what you do want is a nice prestine bleed flesh carving machine that an assassination rogues uses
that's all that matter
dunno how MUCH daggers count for the overall dmg tho
they are big
offhand not much
whats the learning curve like?
mh like 500 dps per 30 ilvl
@tender walrus u not running ep?
sims only went up like 400 dps
not as big as swapping not-SS for yes-SS azerite
You’re supposed to run ep period right now
isnt offhand more important for assa since muti is both daggers?
i tried it
can i?
Mp won’t be better for a while
@frail widget ok tyvm!
Np
the big question though, is Darkmoon fathoms alright for assa :S
there, i default to 2x355 daggers (with enchants)... simmed vs 2x385 daggers with enchants (same daggers)
A lot still run toxic blade. They sim close. I wouldn’t worry
not even 1k dps with both 385
so the "bis" dagger drops in tol dagor?
like probably 500 dps per mainhand and 100 dps offhand
btw.. atm im playing elaborate planning instead of master poisoner.. have any of you experimented with it? outside of sims
technically that is bis if you hit the haste 'break' point
whats the haste break point?
how much haste is the "break point"?
gota sim yo self
im at 20% haste atm
hmm just looking at bloodmallet think i have 3x shrouded suffocation in my bank 😮
For me 18
getting the bis trait vs. getting a +25 ilvl dagger upgrade
and those will scale better
i say break point very veyr loosly dont take my word as law just from my own simming and messing with stats
just aim for 18-22% then go for crit mastery
like i said 
also in raid you have to take into account reorg array if you have 2 stacks of that atm
Sim you’re stat weights. Gear accordingly. Sim again
@frail widget i like min maxing, its fun sort of :D
in raid i get 150 haste atm but then my other ring becomes more dps
sad, but i'm not going anywhere cause daggers are a myth
if you dont have galecallers boon then you prob want as much haste as possible always
Same. I’m 365 ilvl right now with shit tier weapons
And only one ss trait
Feels fucking bad
one ss trait isnt bad
if you have good others
plenty of people with 1 still doing well
Lasted matrix and other one is shit
i dont see the trait getting nerfed like people said
Laser
i thought SS trait was godlike.. so atm i have 2 traits but if i change out my 340 helmet with a 325 helmet that has a SS trait i go down in dps
on the sims
How do you not see it getting nerf. It’s literally the exact thing every other spec has already had nerfed
i mean
i can swap both ss traits out for titan raid traits
and i lose 2-3% dps
its not that op
just in m+
cuz you can abuse restleath so often
makes sense
One trait shitting on all other traits. U want that to be good so you have to sit there and hope your cache has it
Legendaries all over again
i mean thats all calsses atm
with all azerite gear
if azerite gear doesnt drop from m+ or cahnged so you get a guarnetted one from chest each week, i see that happening in the next month 100%
i mean they said azerite will 100% not be tradable all xpac
I’m not even 5 percent sure why they did that
and look what happened to that
yes they are fucked, shit out of luck
385 shoulder worse than my 340 ss shoulder. gj blizz
cant they just make it so that from a +10 you can get 370 azerite +7 355 and +4 340? like it cant be that hard?
they did it so u have to use thr raid azerite gear
or thats the only thing i can think of anyway
lo
as i presume Sims dont account for the buff u get only in uldir right?
they do not
There’s 2 options. They nerf the fuck out of vastly stronger azurite traits til everything is boring across the board or they let you get azurite gear from mythic plus. They’ve chosen to do the first with a lot of classes so I think that’s the way it’s gonna go
Dumb af but it is what it is
fuck the raid gear.. i only play m+ with my mates this expansion.. i sometimes do pug raids in normal/heroic.. but mostly my time is spent in arena and m+.. waiting a week to maybe get an azerite piece is so fucking stupid
they want us to play bfa longer but the azerite shit is demotivating as fuck
iv just stopped all together leveling the neck cus its boring as fuck
No one does expeditions lol
something with change 100%, that change to be determined i guess
Fuck that shit
i mean getting higher ilvl azerite pieces. i dont have a problem with the neck
U do your weekly and then gtfo
oh.. i need to keep my neck lvl high so when i finally get a bis 370 azerite item i can actually use the traits on it.. derpyderp
nice one blizz
time to play 5 rogues and hope one gets a ss piece. yeah
deadshot wasn't that op either and look what happened
btw boys
sims put my 1 355 matrix and 2 340 SS above 3 340 SS
is that right?
or just for ST?
Sim it with exg
i did
Check your stat weights
don't forget the 150 secondary from laser that doesn't show in the sims
LM isnt bad, archive is
We will eventually want 1 laser matrix for Uldir with leveling of Reorigination array. Also laser matrix does a good bit of damage by itself.
the array thingy is raids only right?
yeah
Yes and sims dont take the buff into account
yes i know which is why it seemed weird to me
that it simmed higher
also i have the crappy 370 head from uldir
that sims for 2 dmg higher than x2 SS and puts me down on 1
You get 15 ilvls and you already have 2 ss traits doesnt seem weird to me
but fck that i aint doin it
LM isnt that far from ss
im just wondering whether i should drop to 2 stacks cause of the chest matrix thing
I want triple twist the knife and the raid 30k melee dmg trinket just for pvp. So I can double envenom with mfd and then trinket
can i apply 3 empowered garrotes to just 1 target?
What
no just 1 garrote per target
U can use it twice to get a longer duration out of it
Or garrote rupture garrote if st
okay
So in a pack of 3-4 mobs (m+) I want to garrote 3 targets and also keep them ruptured
Garrote rupture garrote vendetta toxic blade envenom is your opener if playing toxic blade. On st
why the double garrote?
pandemic
It's still gar gar rupt with ex right?
makes the garrote last longer on the target
Extra duration and ep buff
is there an optimal window to use CT in m+ ?
so after i apply garrote and rupture,, and before envenom?
thanks
whats CT?
Crimson tempest
aaa
I rather enjoy crimson tempest
Yeah
It is quite good, especially noticeable in high keys and certain add heavy dngeons
i was actually about to ask
should i be using crimson tempest in 10s this weke
figured not cause tyran but poison bomb seems meh so i was gonna ask
Feel like all that really matters is ST dps and then its PB
!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.
T_T
Look at what percentage of your dps poison bomb is
Crimson tempest def worry it
Worth
i need to test out crisom tempest today
wait so what does this bug mean?
crimson*
one i cast 3 garrotes i need to wait till they run out before applying another one?
once
Yes
yes
Only matters when you've got empowered garrotes rolling
dafuq
2 min fight (M+) First with CT second with PB
2 minutes lol
Lel
Why the hell would you sim 5 minutes for M+? Thats just stupid
That the diffrence really isnt that much and CT is better on thrash 😃
Why the hell would you care about 300 dps on a boss vs clearing it faster
ahh
Exactly, just take CT
fair enough, true
Also it’s more like 3 mins on high keys cause tyrannical
Dont think it will change much, but I can make it 3
how do you play with CT you replace envenom ?
288 dps difference on 3 min fights
Garrote x3 ct. ruptures if they live long enough envenom
That’s prio
Fok as builder
On aoe packs
never use CT on single targt ?
alright ty
ye don't
Anybody know how accurate the sim dps is now?
im simming 11,8k but i have no chance at maitiaining that at a dummy
anyone play with exanguinate?
how would u guys use on use trinkets as sin? if u use it in a window with vanish, garrote rapture exg, do u use it before the vanish or after the dots are up?
exsanguinate*
bursting abit above but i fall to like 9k or abit higher after allitle white
Am i fucking something important up or is it the sim/dummy?
You're bursting "a bit" above 11.8k?
@young swan i always use trinkets with vendetta
Burst is about 14.5 with vendetta then going to around 11 during the 2nd toxic blade, then slowly towards 8,5-9
!guide
Assassination Guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
What's your ilvl, and how many SS traits?
even when i get vendetta back up i cant get to 9,5k even for a 300 sec dummy fight with 2 vendetta
does anyone know of a place i can look for exsanguinate build? and rotation
348, 2 ss
Are you simming yourself with all buffs?
You should burst 20k+ Gulrotmongo
that might be
With lust atleast
hmm but from invis : Gar, Rupt, Gar, vendetta, toxic blade
then 2 x mutilate and envennom except for when i reapply poisons?
What
not sure for toxic blade, but revise the guide for sure if you cant burst 20k in that gear imo
When you vanish for 2nd vendetta, do you use vanish and do your opener as you did at the start?
After, they update constantly and don't snapshot
i wish you could snapshot
yeah i vanish then do the same opener
Fathoms ok? in Assa i bought it for Outlaw
I miss aff lock in MoP 😦
i dont have onuse trinks
i always play with my dots like im snapshotting.. i wish..
fathoms is amazing for all 3 rogue specs
and my trinks are pretty bad
Shit gear, but if you had good trinkets you could snapshot for an entire fight 😄
gonna buy a fathoms i think
and my heart is lvl 18 so i dont have 2 traits on shoulders, but i have ss and overwhelming on both head and chest
Class theorycrafting community, latest simulation results and resources -based on SimulationCraft- for World of Warcraft.
ss and heed*
hm quick question, why do the sims with exsangunate not refresh garotte earlier in the opener? there seems to be 5 seconds of downtime as if they wouldnt take into consideration that the dot drops off faster
better than some* 385 trinkets
Am i doing something wrong or does vanish comes up around 20s into second vendeta?
ah wait
reapplying empowered garrote with 2 s left on vendetta to get that juicey placebo effect for maximum deeps
So I'm sure this is a dumb q. but the guide says g - r -g but surely the second garrote over writes the subterfuge one ?
@tame cobalt should only be a couple of seconds
the second garrote is also within subterfuge window
u have 3 globals in subterfuge so the 3rd global wont overwrite it, just extends it
oh to extend the buff right
@tame cobalt you're fine, just delay 2nd vendetta for ur vanish so you get full duration on ur SS empowered garrote
ich hav 370 chest with out ss should i go for that?
and 370 head.. from.uldir with the trait..fml.
German?
yee
lol
what ?😂
Sim it and see which is better my dude
did the "ich" give the tell? 😃
@vast edge dont u use vanish after garotes runout first time? That would mean around 20-24s after pull no?
lol
rip
@tame cobalt yea i totally thought wrong! you are right.. just hold the vendetta til vanish is up again
mb
Can you explain how you got it wrong? You made me doubt myself..
If you believe everything that is being said in here, you need to reevaluate stuff
cus the third vendetta/vanish combo is a few seconds betwen each other cus you already lined it up the second time @sage cosmos
It's mostly the same, but no one is vanish rupturing these days
Ahh makes sense, i havent raided much as assa yet so I hardly ever see the 3rd combo - Good to know tho.
rip nightstalker
rip ns pk
Rip sub
any high level pvpers here that know if the SS bug is also in arena? and if the SS trait does tons of dmg aswell
It is. Not worth using tho
Twist the knife is better
As a rogue right now u do not want vanish as a dps cooldown
Rogues flop
Subtleforge and garrotte is nyeh?
I dont see mp pulling ahead of EP since mastery and ep both double dip to bleeds and poisons
I just don't feel like deadly and envenom do enough for mp to be better than ep
Ss is cheese garbage in arena that works to 1800 then kinda useless
Yeah what Pexa said
!trinkets
Go twist the knife. Run mfd get the burst trinket from raid. And time your double envenom with the trinket
For pvp that is
im struggling to hit 1800.. (first time doing arena games) getting shit on by arms and bm.. maybe changing out my SS with twist the knife can give me abit more output for the close games @frail widget
im around 1750-1770 feelsbadman
Find a Druid
Right now they’re a better option for us that disc
As I said bro. We just flop.
its a druid i play with 😛 that used to be 2.1k rating 😛
Is there a up to date sim chart for trinkets?
i guess its just me :;(
Herodamage or bloodmallet @joey
Run mfd. don’t run smoke bomb as sin. U need the dmg
Hey, is there a WA to show how many enemies are around you, so you know when to do Mut or FoK (in for example dungeons)? Or is this not possible?
I think fuu had something like that
system shock creeping poison and the wound poison in the pvp talents? @frail widget
nameplates and FoK 3+ works for me
System creeping and deadly brew
Thank you @gleaming geyser
Run mp and toxic blade
Better off fok at 2+ tho
mp?
Believe FoK was >3?
Master poisoner for pvp
yeah i do 3+ and just muti 2 target, works for me
dot
Bis daggers are from mother in uldir?
thx
halves dot duration, makes it tick faster
I fok 2+ but I feel its probably close to dead even

I also fan at 2
I don’t know if there are bis daggers. It depends what your weights are lol
Hehe ok
CPs are worth more
Tbf out of the two daggers dropping in uldir, the mother ones are more likely to be your best for stat weights than the one from zul
Haste isnt even my best stat anymore as sin
Are the Uldir trinkets planned to be buffed does anyone know?
video guides get outdated faste imo
Myth check the text guide on ravenholdt website
Saw infexious gaming but he's not using exsang
Not that I’ve seen. Infexious prolly has one. Dalaran is some self masturbatory clickbait so I’d avoid that like the plague
You could be right fl0w
99% of youtube guides are made by people who shouldnt make guides
@frail widget how?
@solar summit some of the ones ive seen i can tell is clearly outdated already
Aha
They’re all 5 through 10 minute videos where u can tell he ran out of shit to talk about so he just clips himself doing meme shit
@daring imp
no i meant about haste not being best stat anymore haha
Oh. I have 20 percent haste
that's what, 1400? 1500?
300 on a ring

Something like that ya
I have 20%, use galecallers and haste still king 🤔
simming myself with gc boon haste dropped from 2.02 to 1.80 o_o
I also have gc boon
wth
Sin is top dpe on the latest day 1 heroic charts, who's scared
i'm not, nothing bad will happen with us, chill bois 
Rogue absolutely does not need nerfs
so i think im gonna switch from sub to sin ..
SS nerf inc 
Most people do
TB sims 100 DPS lower for me
Sin is way better. You can watch Netflix while raiding
we ought to drop some other high ilvl azerites so we stop using SS's for raiding and mask it a bit ... lul
@vague kernel I do
I hope they nerf ss ooo
Those bottom specs are literally unfinished
Nerf sin so people have something to complain about and reroll to their other FOTM
bois i cant figure out the opener with subterfuge without ss, single target that is
Why Nerf ones that are?
dun touch mah ss's pls
Make azerite shit drop from m+!
some day i'll be full 385 with 3x 340 EZerite pieces
No moth. That makes too much sense for a small indie company like blizzard
i have 355 SS 😃
@vague kernel after vendetta in opener, on CD and pool a bit on rotation
oh you silly lucky bastard
Got 370 head from my 4mythic cache and it simmed better than my 340 SS head ;_;
bois, do i delay vendetta and vanish a bit for exsang?
y
It's not like we'd get to use the traits since they're locked anyway 😂
:>
Give garrote 3 cp baseline 👷
give us not-shitty-traits
