Ex isn’t harder to use than TB just more punishing when you make mistakes, so it seems daunting to a lot of people
What are you at like 20% haste?
Weird I’m at 17 and it still shows haste at like 1.8 above the others
how do you guys sim for M+? playing exsang
Is CT strictly better than PB?
add cleave or multiple bosses?
Just sim st tbh
add cleave
its where rogue shines
Still take crit
AoE
i have 13% haste 14% crit 30% mastery is that bad ?
Just reroll troll for the berserking snapshot
Troll being shit through most of legion for sub/sin has finally paid off with how good it is now
troll was the best race for so many classes lol
Lol I know but not for rogues it wasn’t
troll/belf is the reason why all world first guilds are horde
And it’s only a 1% gain over the next best race unlike arcane mage where it’s like 3%
@shy mica Any cleave condition 6t 40s patchwerk etc. is mastery > agi and high crit. Haste is garbage.
But since we don't have gear sets. We have to balance st haste in.
go look at kill vids from raid guilds from tot 70% of raid+ troll
I got a new pair of pants. One 340 ilvl with 136haste, 64 crit and 85 leech, already have 350 with 92 haste and 118 crit. Whick would you choose? Pawn says 350 is 7% better.
playin sin
sim yourself.
@lone junco So what are u running then?
In the end. Crit is not a bad thing.
Me personally. My group doesn't pull 10x elites.
Well you could just have different rings for m+ that don’t have haste anyways
isnt vers/mast > crit for bleeds/poisons?
I like the 3t and single prio heavy haste. If you are in FOK spam for long you will wish you had crit.
Inb4 Kul Tirans end up OP as all hell
Kul Tiran Humans?
when alliance gets good racials, will not change shit
Does haste lose a lot of value on 3t?
You can test is. 3t patchwerk 40s or 20s. No buffs.
What level 100 talents do people use on m+?
blizz reacted too late, all world first guilds are horde now and they will not change into allaince unless there is a racial that is so fking ridicolous op that belf/troll racial is a joke against it
The Hotted sub-race 😂
@royal lantern its all making up for vanilla Kappa
I wonder if we'll get the Asmongold model too
There is some feely in it because the apl won't ggg. But it uses vendetta vanish. each pull.
yeha, cus of the world first nefarian kill its ok that horde players dont really need too play against a major mechanic on zul lul
´´lets remove the aoe silence from belf and make it a purge, all major dungeon/raid mechanics need a purge now´´
LOL
im not here too complain about racial balance,its fuckd and they cant change it anymore, so drop the discussion
talk about sin:P
That it is
Yeah no way to turn it back now
hi, does anyone has a good wa for poison bomb ?
Ct
Ct for mythic+
in high key like KR 10 i wouldnt use anything else
I hate that there’s no better st option than PB
CT is shit for tyranical
So is pb. Watch last kr boss run all over the place.
Totem boss pulling around whirlwinds.
Yeah yeah we get it
Ct is good for siege unless you don’t have enough st for last boss
You're a Ct sycophant Noobe
I just know that pb in best cases is small.
That CP used on CT could be a rupture
It used to be 35%. Dmg.
Pb's damage is Pb% + rupture lost to Ct
26 hours update: 2 galecallers dropped, i didnt get it still.
is it worth to use the uldir trait on my 970 chest (simspam just for showin my gear) https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/ihVaJhmAwAYbRCu5kF4cSQ
Inspired name lul
@spring prawn I feel your pain. 370 ss shoulders from freehold dropped and the other person couldn't trade it
Tank dropped a 370 GC yesterday, best trinket he had was 365... hang in there @spring prawn
How did 370 SS drop
Titanforging
they cant even drop u liar lol
Ah
You'd be surprised
Depressing
can't wrap my head around sin m+ playstyle, i'm still doing more deeps on law in overall dps
Azerite gear cant forge.
Only way you'd get 370 dungeon azerite is weekly chest
Tbh Wouldn't mind seeing 6t 20sec. Ggg Ct. vs ggg r. Pb. Fully stacked with GC.
But the apl is dumb.
Trying to gear my Sin and my SV Hunter............Yesterday I got Construct Overcharger trinket on both back to back from the Weekly Emmissary of War quests......THEN I got another one from Taloc 1hr later..
3 within 3 hours.....same damn trinket

@high holly if your sin dps is low you are probably bugging SS. Or you don't have it.
22-25k. Every pack.
wtfffff
!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.
How do you open on packs
garrote on all targets
I'm 347.
GGG CT
Read the bug
Yeah. Don't do that.
How many garrotes
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation

on 4 different targets
im 367, easily 30k dps on 2 targets.
Eek
19.2k dps damn
ooof
It's not Patchwerk 5 min @formal sable
When they drop off
Or vanish and go with 6 garrotes
Never add unempowered garrote when you still have empowered garrotes up
Question! CT or PB in +10++ keys?
so a pack without vanish should go garrote 3x then rupture how many targets?
Can vanish ggg if you need
Which gives the most bang for mah bucks
Or Exsang the 23 sec one
Rupture elites.
rupture all elites?
Yes
5 cp
I’ve been running CT, super good on big pulls @echo night
Unless you have prio target
won't you cap on energy real quick tho
That will die very fast
Skip that one
Or Exsang it
So
Better to have energy than not
If you have a rupture trait, doing 5+ ruptures gives you INSANE amount of Agi!!
It’s fine to cap energy in large aoe pulls, with 3 garrotes going and a few ruptures you will be flooded
3 ss is the dream
4 boss 1 min typically for aoe burst
Is there any good way to sim for m+?
Easy 25k+ each add pack
With light movement or addcleave
feelsbadman when you picked deadshot > SS then deadshot got nerfed to bits
Lol
Then reforge it
HAHAH
I do 42k on addpacks with PB
By xmog guy
Bruh
N o o o o o b 😂
transmogrifier in boralus
Like 10g
holy fuck
Next to Xmog guy
Lul
Hahaha
Yeah you can burst like 50K
ty guys never knew
Gz on 3x SS
damn 3x SS IS the dream
How much of the trash burst is pb
Yup
Like 12%?
currently transitioning from outlaw to sin
Lol if that
same valan
2x SS 1x rupture is also VERY nice quality of life on fortified
Pb is 0-30 lul
Depending on the pull and rng
BOOM
Anyone still playing outlaw for m+. Either stubborn. Tank won't let them stealth. Or the long duration drag cleave.
Ye
i'm going 2210021 btw
is that ideal for m+? can't sim it since it's not only st nor is it only 3+ targets
1m30s blind tho!
Grats.
Tb and exsang are both fine for m+
I'm still 349 😦
Seems like 10 ilvl is 1K dps
I'm 358 and sim 14.1K
348 13.2
could push higher but i cant be fucked to swap out for haste enchants just for raid
the GGG opener, that is for multiple mobs and not ST, right?
I got only weapon from Heroic
3 could be g tab g tab g
ST is g r g
355 /340
what about single target? Do I want to stick to G R G Vendetta?
Read the guide.
G r g vendetta m r exsang
Has st open.
that's what the guide says
It's not intuitive.
It works
is it okay to pandemic an exsang'd bleed
Open carries all the way through the vanish gg.
not empowered just exs
Jut let the exang run out.
Like last tick
Best practice.
But don't clip the vanish gg exang.
does that mean that the exsanged garrote isn't separate inside the pandemic?
when on exsang, i refresh between 1s - 0s
Yeah
Rule of thumb
If you have ONE
Just ONE
Empowered garrote up
Don't fucking click garrote
Unless you're in subterfuge or stealth
Agree. That last tick of vanish exang crits like 25k
I know not to refresh the empowered because of the bug
mostly just talking about like if I exs a regular garrote, and that dot has like 4 sec left or whatever, should I pandemic with another garrote?
or let it tick out
Imagine if you kept SS garrote if you refreshed it before it ran out
Let it tick out. For every sec you clip. You drop 1 or 2 ticks. Depending on GC exang.
Refresh sub 1 sec left
Yeah. The hasted GC exang is 0.6 tick rate ish.
an advice for you guys
On Exsang
farm up arena
is there like a weakaura that tracks ticks xd, I think warlock has one for drain life or something
The standard tick is 1.8
you got a nice 355 chest /w SS
We know hehe
kk
but if it's regular garrote, with no exs, not empowered, I can clip it?
Yes
exsang or tb?
kk
at -5s
Within pandemic
for m+ exans or tb?
Exsang in m+ though I'd say
i run always exsang coz it sims higher for me
yes you can
how?
hectic add cleave
but i saw fragnance running Tb tho
1 boss
Do any of you guys use Mizerok Sin Weak Aura?
On the ST opener you use galecaller right before exang so that it snapshots?
u don’t sim hectic add cleave lol
u sim patchwerk for 3-5 bosses for 1min to simulate a m+ pack
is it worth to macro gc with exsang?
nope
No
not the same CD
You might want GC separate from Exsang in certain situations
use gc on cd after ven > gc > exs?
you use GC on cd pretty much
ty
You'll line up Exsang GC Vanish and Vendetta 3rd go around
assuming boss fight is forgiving
sometimes I have to hold gc
i went to fetid heroic and killed him 4 tiems für the bonusrolls got the chest on the last ❤
Gz
grats:)
i can famr 370 dagger on m+
depends what he has
wtf, I loaded this WA and it will not load, in combat, out of combat, doesn't matter won't show up. It's Mizerok's Sin WA
assuming you got the chest in arena
im almost 1k io and have yet to see dagger drop 😭
:(
and wont raid mythic with twink rogue
ye got 1k now aswell we had no freehold the whole week -.-
What is IO?
raiderio
best dagger are in TD
Is that different than raidbots?
for me
crit haste one?
y
what is GC?
GC is galecallers
ah
OOh
bois when exsang comes off cd how do you deal with it? refresh all bleeds? what until acceptable pandemics to refresh then exsang? exsang off cd?
ss bugg fixed?
setup pandemics ahead of time and ex’s when it comes up
u wanna like it up
line
Hi guys, what's a standard Assassination opener look like w/o lust and 3x suffocation traits?
so ur last pandemic bleed goes off just as exs is off CD
@stoic beacon check the ravenholdt guide
I did, wasnt sure if it was correct still so wanted it verified
the opener in ravenhold guide is shit
what’s wrong with it
mb i though it had the old one in it
Yeah, what is wrong with Ravenholt opener?
nvm
Shrouded suffocation combo point doesnt multiply right?
3x is still the way to go for the added dmg?
Ye
until nerf
Laser Matrix is good in Uldir
yup
Does Azerite gear from M+?
Nerf 
Anyone have a good bislist for Assassin?
I just use bloodmallet
Bloodmallet + sims
Herodamage is good too
and yeah sim
i prefer hero damage tho
Fair enough
Ye
For example when 360 crit/vers dagger sims lower then 350 haste/vers dagger
Or 370 head sims lower then 355 head with SS on it
on sisters in wm - if u apply bleeds to all do u still get energy regen? Or does amount regained scale w bleed dmg
it's because main hand dps is over everything
Use Top Gear and find your optimal balance
Off hand btw
Garotte worth to put on secondary targets in a middle of the boss fight only if they live for all of the duration?
Im about not vanish buffed garotte
I think I read someone said it’s worth to finish with rupture if a mob is about to die since u regain energy still
Only if you don't have your buffed garrotes up because glitch will break those.
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation
Currently still bugged. Applying 1-3 Garrotes in Subterfuge, and then applying another Garrote outside of Subterfuge, all of your Subterfuge-empowered Garrotes lose the Shrouded Suffocation multiplier, However the Subterfuge multiplier still remains.
Advised to not cast unbuffed Garrotes to avoid losing SS trait damage bonuses until this has been fixed.
Yeah i know exceptions, just wanna know is it worth it to 1 cp with short garotte bleed
And how many sexonds will mob live for worth it
You can't know that
;)
y not just rupture it and garrotte big target
Some asshole in the raid might get MONSTER procs and destroy that mob with garrote
@frosty obsidian energy regen is flat per tick, tho I dont think it's worth spreading full bleeds. Better to just leave a big rupture on the target right before you swap to new one
thanks dad
w8, im not english native speaker, can anyone rephrase the shit on SS garrote ?
for mythic+ should I go toxic blade or exsan?
And just tunnel the active one from there
Where are you from Sven
But im getting extra energy of garrottes tick too
Belgium
2x ss tb sims higher for me
Lol no can do
when I got 3x ss exs sims higher
you can rephrase it in english tho, im fluent enought
@fallen sandal don’t apply garrotte if u have emp garrotte on any target
just 1 ss atm
The 3 SS garrotes lose SS
ah yeah alright
And you go from 30k dps to 10
511 these days not so low ;D
because of subterfuge
what's the deal with multiple garrotes from stealth (on ST)? is it just to get combo points?
pandemic
ie: "Vanish when Garrote runs out
Garrote twice"
extending empowered garrote time
ok
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation

lol
Is everyone just saying pandemic meaning to extend dot time? isn't pandemic like a warlock trait or something?
first thing u see - ‘gameplay notes: fuck if I know’
everyone has pandemic
on dots/hots/buffs they can reapply at will before it ends
except i guess on specific stuff like elaborate planning
Pandemic was the passive for Warlocks during MoP, which allowed DoTs to be refreshed upto 50% before. It's now baked into all classes as standard at 30% or whatever. So if your Rupture lasts 20 seconds (no idea what it actually is), you can reapply it at 6 seconds and under, and nothing will be lost. You'll then just get a 26 second Rupture.
People just refer to it as Pandemic still though.
afaik no pandemic on that
Gotcha, didn't know they did that. I stopped playing early MoP and was a Lock main before that.
No pandemic on ep ya. You just try to clip it as much as possible for max uptime during vendetta, emp garrotes and TB/exsang windows
What is ep?
Elaborate planning
Ooh
guys, I still have the dagger from last week as a reward for the 500 conquest points, am I fucked to get the chest ?
Hey guys, do i rupture every add in a m+ trahs fight or is there a treshhold?
so how come you can refresh garrote and get pandemic at the start.. instead of having to wait till there's only 30¤% left?
Because subterfuge falls
30% is when you techincally don't waste any
I believe.
But since we want the extra damage
we Waste time time because we will lose subterfuge
Rupture 3 boys is usually enough
You start to energy cap past 3 garrote/ruptures and just slamming envenoms becomes more efficient
I keep hearing that PB / CT are neck and neck for fights, does that mean they are similar for Single target too?
ok, and do i use FoK vs 2 targes?
3
alright, thx!
no CT is useless for Single Target
I would say CT for M+ with Fortified and just PB for Raids/M+ with Tyrannical
Literally any class can run
Rogue is decent, sub better than the other 2 specs
At running
I have to open running D:
whats the difference between battle pot agi and bursting blood now?
need something cheap for m+ spamming
Running p1 is whatever. None of that damage matters
1 flash and like 15-20 pots an hour kills me 😛
Just run prolongeds in m+
Yeah that’s why I do it, just feels bad to not get to garrote open
Unless you're pushing high you shouldnt need pots and flasks, although they never hurt
Prolonged is a good option to spend less gold
someone got nice weakauras for assi rogue to see the duration of dmg increse pls ;)?

i just got a 365 gb and a 370 dooms wake, by far my best trinkets but both are on use...
yeah, but not 2 of them
then use galecallers
use darkmoon for 2nd. ez
ik, it kinda is but it still feels like wasted potential
pb
easy choice
you want all the ST you can get for the burst phase when you go ham and he takes extra damage.. the 1st phase is fine to spread rups and garrotes no need for CT
Thats just my opinion by the way, Im am in no way an assa connoseiur
an ass connoseiur however >:)
hey guys quick question. does it matter which way i enchant weaps with quick/deadly for main/offhand?
All p1 dmg is just padding. Run pb

anyone have the TB/exsang macro handy? so i dont have to replace the spell each time i change talents
#showtooltip
/cast [talent:6/2]Toxic Blade;[talent6/3]Exsanguinate
thanks!
whats wrong with it?
take a closer look
well i have bad news
and it works perfectly fine
how can it not work for you and work perfeclty for me
because wow can't parse it
when do u guys use exg ?
o.O
????????
whatever man i copy pasted my macro
That's the one I use
yeah, it just worked for me.
^^
Isn't this gonna bring a delay bc it tries TB first when talented into exsa
kits the same setup as #showtooltip
/cast [talent:4/1] Ring of Peace; [talent:4/2] Song of Chi-Ji; [talent:4/3] Leg Sweep
obli and nadems macros work just fine
it just auto changes skill based on talent yo uchose
^
jesus
They're basically the same anyway
Obli's is cleaner looking too imo
lol
well i use : instead of pressing enter and /cast again
Yuyuli shed some light on what you mean instead of just saying "jfc"
ah
be helpful.
exactly, that macro ain't working without that
its semi colon
and yet it still cast exsang on my screen 🤔
fucking nitpicking passive-aggressive baby
lol
Just tell us rather than play around like a child
QQ, he just wants to stick his nose in the air
Hey guys: For bloodmallet the engineering head sims better than SS for hectic add cleave, my question is: how many adds does it sim when it's defined as hecitc add cleave?
git gud
"i have bad news for you SNORT"
.-.
Just mention that instead of being a dick xD
whatever, thanks Obli and nadem
My macro was correct anyway so why would I be mad
your macro was fine
Yeah but your attitude wasn't lul
regardless, @gleaming cliff macro still worked without the :
because it just ignores the condition
Engineering head or SS for m+?
that macro is actually working like this /cast [talent:6/2]Toxic Blade;Exsanguinate without the :
thats why it "works"
obviously
Who takes Venom Rush anyway 😏
Follow-up question, how can I sim an item I don't have?
Maybe in pvp
@undone sandal gear compare raidbots.com
no u take tb in pvp
Tahnks @hollow trail
Hey guys quick question.
I got a 370 shoulder that has Scen t of blood. Should I use it or is not having 3x Shrouded Suffocation just not worth?
have u tried simming
@slow yacht use Top gear compare on raidbots to figure out the best combo
@slow yacht for m+ try 6T 40sec patchwerk. No buffs.
My guess is that. Raid and m+ will differ.
@strange python Dont worry about , after a hard day of being bullied at school he needs to feel powerful over somebody, anyways im letting myself out
I like scent tbh. Gives you some beef over time with adds.
alright, thx.
@gleaming cliff i explained why the macro doesn't actually work properly
is it worth to use FoK for 2 targets ?
3+ fok

Thanks ❤
When do you think SS will be nerfed?
no one has said that it will, just implied that something will happen. we dont know
It should get nerfed
okay
I am trying to sim the engineering head with the options of 3 targets and 1 min fight. No BL. Seems logical?
My blatant guess, is that dr will happen to traits. Like it did with relics. With regard to stacking.
@undone sandal 3T 1 min is a little long. What fight are you trying to test?
trying to simulate higher keystones on ads.
I do 6t 20. Or 4t 40. No buffs.
Patchwerk.
Cause the addcleave timings are in waves.
But just do what makes sense for your group.
Btw is it still too early to state which rogue spec is best at mythic+? Or has it started to reveal itself.
Sin is god imo. Musclebro is fairweatheter and flip flops Willy nilly.
He's even playing SS.
Do people use poison bomb or crimson tempest for m+?
Either.
Sorry i have no idea what anything past "sin is god imo" means : p
The guys pushing keys as rogues are using Sin.
But Noobe, does the sim take advantage of the multi-garrote with SS trait?
It does 2x.
You can read it yourself.
Run the sim. Click HTML. Go to apl and sample sequence.
Each garrote is worth about 100k dmg.
You can ggg r. Or ggg Ct based on target condition.
I tried to make an apl that would overcap ggg. But I'm bad and it wouldn't.
Yeah, I'm not so skilled in simming my self. So I have hard time simming anything outside single target.
The engineering goggles sims worse than SS, even though bloodmallet ranks it alot higher.
Hey yall did shrouded suff get nerfed w/i in the last week or so?
how can i figure out the optimal time to use my dooms wake trinket?
should i do it as soon as pull or as i vendetta or something else
or even pre pull? as the agi stacks up to around 2k after 10 sec
Seens like a good trinket to push with vendetta
Vendetta
@undone sandal try again. At 10t 1mins. If the goggles don't win then, it never will.
As you use vendetta prior to exsang and stuff
for our second exsang infight, do we just use it after refreshing rupture (4CP+) and w/e garrote or do we try to max it as in full garrote and 5CP rupture?
@lone junco Haha, okay!
would it be overly dumb of me to bind it to a macro with Vendetta then? seeing as they share the same cd
there might be some sort of situation i cant think of where thatd cuck me but im not sure
I would do it.
speaking of that
What kind of scenario would you see where you would need to use vendetta, and not use the trinket or vice versa?
i take it dot and poison damage adapts to our stats? and doesnt snapshot?
only 3 things snapshot in the sin kit
-garrote from stealth/subterfuge
-bleeds applied from stealth with nightstalker
-exsang snapshots based on current haste
all other damage is dynamic
!0 targets, AZ3-R1-T3 Gearspun Goggles still comes short. Seems strange though? How did the guys at BloodMallet rank it so highly?
10 targets*
so in that case would it not be worth popping my Dooms Wake before pull for my subterfuge garrote?
@safe matrix
oh
only the effect from subterfuge/SS snapshots
the NS/subt snapshots snapshot the effects
What do you mean by snapshot?
whether the damage for something is calculated at the beginning or if it updates during
takes a "snapshot" of your stats and buffs on cast
and takes them into account for whole duration
even if they run out during
exsang snapshots haste
Oh so like if you gain haste while a bleed is active will the bleed tick faster?
yeap
if you dont exsang
except int he case of exsang
if im understanding right
because exsang looks at your haste when it was cast
and then calculates the tick rate for the whole buff from that
but other damage modifiers like vendetta are still dynamic
So you want max haste when you pop exang
Speaking of exang, what's the best way to use it outside of the opener?
Do you over refresh both bleeds then exang
do i delay every exsang to cast it with galecaller now?
i refresh and then pandemic but idk if thats optimal or not
In the opener you over refresh rupture at like 12s
So guess it could be a similar point mid pull
!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.
do i galecaller before or after exsang?
before
and do i delay every exsang for galecaller?
or should i just spam both on cooldown?
not really sure
it sounds good to save it but youd prob lose 2 - 3 exsanguinates over a fight if you did
which might not be worth it
I did it bois
im confused
maybe im confusing it
15k club
but i wouldve thought youd want the haste buff before the exsang
do i use galecaller before exsang or after? @spice surge
Sometimes exsang lines up with that, sometimes not (at 2.20 for example it should line up)
before exsang
that is a lot of haste gems
my sim now tells me stat priority mastery WTF??
I dunno best stuff I've got that sims highest
ic
I'm at 18%? and haste is 4th for me now
it depends on your gear really
im at 21%crit
20%haste
31%mastery
and sim tells me more mastery is that correct?
I heard something about a bug with SS when you apply your 4th unbuffed Garrote
that all do less dmg
!ss
Shrouded Suffocation

@chrome cave https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/7YqhhQbPN5ckAKL4sx7Yn7 me too
yes
damn nice
if you do 25k you did it right, if you did 10k you did it wrong
its the application from nonstealth that breaks it
you can apply 6
but youhave to vanish
Don’t apply garrote after subterfuge buff expires in opener = avoid bug.
Yea I got lucky last night
thats a really high haste value
does exang affect all targets with crimson tempest or just the initial target?
someone ahve a macro fpr exsang and TB in one? so that i don't need 2 macros?
sad day when sim tells me 30 ilvl upgrade on shoulders isn't an upgrade because I lose 1 SS trait.
feelsbadman
does anyone know offhand if we want to hold exsang to line up with galecallers boon?

Anyone know best way to use exsang? if there is a certain timer on dots that you can keep them or if it's worth to refresh both before using exsang?
im always refreshing both
you should line it up on dot refreshal
not sure if its optimal tho
As high as possible
but if you can't you should refresh yes
@cinder yoke I’ve been trying to find that answer also. The lineup is nice but it messes up the lineup with 2nd vanish so I’m still not sure if it’s worth or not
or if u are lazy u can spam this for opener
all I want from this spec is for that dogshit bug to get fixed already

/castsequence [nostealth] reset=target Rupture, Garrote, Mutilate, Vendetta, Rupture, Exsanguinate, Mutilate, Mutilate, Envenom, Mutilate, Mutilate, Envenom, Mutilate, Vanish,
yea i was figuring, hold for the second exsang, then hold slightly again for the second vanish to resync everything
That’s 3 exsang in the time it takes to use 4 though. You lost a cast of a 45sec cd within 2.5 min. It adds up
yeh just use it on cd and hold until vanish honestly
ensanging empowered garrotes is a beast
well i was wondering more if there were any sims done
Delaying probably only worth to line w vanish
not really into feely
I’ve asked. Haven’t seen an answer
Not worth delaying exsang for anything
thanks rngesus (?)
damn
Only CD thats worth delaying is the second vendetta for 15 seconds so it lines up with vanish
1k+ mastery 950 haste
maybe optimize your gear?
maybe I would if I got drops xD
you can farm m+
simming 15k even so I don't see the problem
What stats you have is pretty irrelevant tbh. You take whatever sims the highest
You can farm anything, but that doesn't mean you'll get shit for loot.

rng is rng.
Sure, haste would be better, but if you have high ilvl pieces that give more damage
then fuck haste

yo guys, starting my rogue will gear it up for pushing high keys and some raiding. do you recommend me to enchant my stuff with crit that will work for both fortified and tyrannical?
must i snapshot garrote with gale trinket or will it just scale up after trinket use?
It scales
k thx
Few optimization questions:
-
Initial opener (with at least one SS trait) ends up delaying vanish + vendetta cooldowns by about 20s apart. Is it worth holding the vendetta until vanish is off of CD to synchronize them after the opener?
-
When using envenoms + elaborate planning, do you generally try to clip your elaborate plannings to take advantage of 10% damage buff on your envenoms? Or do you try to maintain a higher envenom uptime (which is longer than EP's buff)?
-
Are you generally banking energy to squeeze in more mutilates within an EP window (e.g. bank to 100 energy or so, envenom, then mutilate 2x kind of deal)?
2 clip for EP
@dreamy elk 1. Yes
2. EP during empowered garrotes, envenom otherwise
3. Yes
yo guys, starting my rogue will gear it up for pushing high keys and some raiding. do you recommend me to enchant my stuff with crit that will work for both fortified and tyrannical? sorry asking this again but i really need an answer :/
Is it really really important to refresh rupture closer to 7.2sec with 5 cp and 6sec with 4cp, would you be losing out of dmg or anyhing if you refreshed say closer to 0-1sex
It doesnt really matter, do it if you want to. The difference is pretty minimal

@tight hinge No you dont lose anything applying it closer to 1 second, but if you let it run out you lose damage
alright cheers
okay thanks jw why ravenholdt gives a specific time on the refresh if u dont lose dmg or whatever
Enchants depend on your current gear stat weights and you really need to sim once you get gear that is worth enchanting
@spice surge Cool. Glad to see my intuition wasn't completely off. Thanks.
my main is enchanter so changing enchants isn't a big deal for me fortunetly
but you got a point
Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere guys but when running Crimson Tempest for m+, do you include it on pure single target bosses or stick to rupture/envemon?
Yeah I don’t enchant until I get big boy ilvl stuff
Not really
That was my follow up question haha - I was guessing you'd bo bomb for tyrannical weeks
And the thing is, CT is better than pb on short fights
how so?
!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.
is the FoK talent ever worth between PB and CT?
Does Shrouded Suffocation cp gain stack aswell or just the dmg part?
Because PB (on average) dont really procc until a few seconds in when you have spent enough cp
just damage
just dmg
CT always just works
So the longer the fight, the closer they get on average
and the 2% loss on ST is worth the massive aoe gain
IMO
highly disagree, it's more important to apply rupture to everything than fitting in a CT
in that time you have a chance to proc PB
Sim it yourself and you'll see
I'm doing that now on a 4 boss 1 minute fight to check
isn't the aoe sim a 3 min fight?
blah il lsit at my 12.5k
I'll do that too then I guess, I was spitballing it
Apart from opening, uing GC before exsang is not a thing anymore?
are there any videos of rogue skips yet ?
rogue skips?

or WB
XDDDDDD
ToS shroud before putting key in before 1 second go down distract the shit sap one go further remember to refresh shroud, sap the stealth dude on the far left, engange downstairs group
ez curve ez bis boots
Freehold - skip everything till first pack at boss
free hold there is a few different way
Underrot - Skip everything to first boss
Someone was saying CT over PB for Dungeons even on Tyrannical? You won't use CT on bosses though either right?
CT coming out about 1k over PB for both 1 and 3 min aoe fights btw
So you'd triple Garrote CT into ruptures on trash?
for my character obviously
you don't use CT on bosses yes
Another optimization question:
Before going into a vendetta + vanish - double garrote combo, what things do you want to have ahead of time? Banked energy? Refreshed rupture?
@calm grail seli and muscle both use Ct. on tyr. Cause even if you have pb. It is such a small portion of st damage compared to the trash packs.
Maybe not kings rest.
I don't use CT with non fortified
Yes nira
Okay
Same.
jesus christ
I guess you have to think of it like this, 2% boss damage for one player or substantially more AOE.
it's down to personal preference at this point
barely enough people doing 10's to notice some difference
Well technically everything is. One's gonna be better though.
300 dps loss taking CT over PB on the bosses... I'll run CT I think
do you trust your teamates enough to make the boss last longer?
i know 90% of the pugs i go, i don't
plus tanks don't have balls to pull the infested mob with its whole pack
they jsut say "oh no cc infested and let's bring the pack way back to kill it before killing the infested mob"
wtf just agro the pack kill infested and keep dps'ing everything else
is snapshotting still in the game at all

@terse pawn which region/faction?
@daring imp the dmg from CT will save you more time overall in the dungeon than PB
If a boss lasts 2 seconds longer is irrelevant
a little yeah
you have no enchants?
Guys can one of you share a macro that switches between exsanguinate and crimson tempest
@fiery oxide i'm US alliance
got a useless 340 vers mastery axe out of that shit haha
sigh
What do you mean switches between exsang and CT
they're two different abilities on two different rows
Perhaps you mean exsang and tb?
Nope just a macro that changes depending on which one of them is chosen, as they are never both picked at the sam e time
?
Or activated whichever one is available, I guess
Yes they are
@void pecan galecallers is simming like 30 dps higher. so it isnt god awful lol
