mortal basalt
#

different armor sets for that I imagine?

daring imp
#

yea @mortal basalt

#

different azerite traits too

mortal basalt
#

what do u run for raiding azerite traits wise

daring imp
#

what sims the most to me atm, 370 laser with 385/340 sb

sudden trench
#

@lone junco even tho dd sims higher for you, it is prob still not worth. None of the raid fights is designed for DD uptime to be worth. SS will give you more dmg 90% of the time in raid but will tell you that you sim lower.

somber moon
#

Why would you track Subterfuge when you know it's just 3 gcds

daring imp
#

to cast garrote on the very last milisecond of it

#

i'm a minmax bitch sry

#

also to know when not to cast if mobs are running to the tank

#

if some of them aren't on my range anymore

#

to ensure i don't accidentally cast one out of subterfuge

mortal basalt
#

why does raiding require so much haste and m+ doesnt?

north leaf
#

Longer fights

daring imp
#

m+ you deal with trash way more than boss

#

and trash fights aren't that long

#

more targets = mastery/crit value goes up

mortal basalt
#

Yeah I prob need to sim more multi target fights

merry elbow
#

in m+ you get energy from multi dotting so you dont need haste

daring imp

Assassination Stat weights:
Single target: haste > crit > mastery > vers
Multi target: crit > mastery > vers >= haste
Note: Simming will always result in more accurate results.

mint cairn
#

So whats a good opener for using MA with no SS traits? Would you still open with a garrote?

north leaf
#

@daring imp Ongbak, as someone who plays SS I want your opinion on something. For raid, the sims don't put SS over DD/AotT/LM. Then in M+ its the same thing for crit boosting traits / SoB. In your experience is this because of the sims being incorrect, or is this truly the case?

daring imp
#

the thing is, simming m+ is quite tricky because of the amount of mobs your tank will be pulling per pack and because you also have bosses that you most likely won't want to agro trash packs with it ( like people did with sub on low keys or m0's )

somber moon
#

Theres nothing else to open with as assassination, so yea Garrote

daring imp
#

when simming for trash packs on m+ i do 3~6 bosses for 40s~1min

#

i know the general rotation for single target won't suffer that much if i change my entire stats

tropic tulip
#

where can we get the apl to read through

daring imp
#

so spec'ing to kill trash quickly is generally better

#

if you sim some hectic add cleave for 3~5min you do not take restealths into account, and SS's good because of restealths

north leaf
#

@mint cairn I don't use SS and generally my opener is still garrote, though depending on number of targets I try to throw a subt buffed Rupture in there.

daring imp
#

yesterday's ptr build

north leaf
#

I usually never do hectic add cleave for that reason

somber moon
#

Tooltip fixes?

daring imp
#

no clue lul

somber moon
#

Wait what slice and dice assassination lmao

north leaf
#

Make SnD great again

#

That would definitely put Slice n Dice a bit higher on my priority list, but I don't know... The energy returns would be pretty wild on ST fights

daring imp
#

if only snd would come back and affect our bleeds

grave pagoda
#

Do we have any kind of haste cap to aim for? or just pump iuts aslong as it sims highest?

daring imp
#

pump that as long as it sims highest

north leaf
#

Well that would be the unrivaled choice at that point. Does the instant proc of Deadly Poison generate energy?

heavy forge
#

@north leaf subt doesn't buff rupture?

daring imp
#

@north leaf no

mortal basalt
#

I have low single target dmg but my aoe is good do I just need more haste?

mellow fog
#

Should you maintain EP on vendetta even with 2-3 combo point envemenom ?

thorn crater
#

that sounds counterintuitive

#

u would be spending 2 much energy by doin that

north leaf
#

@heavy forge You are correct, coffee is wearing off. Generally the idea for non SS openers should be G, mut, g, rupt

thorn crater
#

u cant maintain

#

unless u play MA

#

then muti muti env?

#

with DD

heavy forge
#

tfw 3 SS tho

mellow fog
#

True didn't think of the energy. Just forget the buff ?

thorn crater
#

focus on clipping envenom tbh

#

esp with TB

fierce sluice
#

Is laser matrix crap outside of uldir? Or is it viable in m+

north leaf
#

Feels so good, but feels REAL bad when you have a tank who chain pulls M+ and doesn't let you restealth until the healer needs mana

lone junco
#

If tank won't let you restealth. Just leave.

tepid frost
#

Good evening, mateys. How exactly does Archive of the Titans work with sims? How does it account for the stacks you have gathered (the ones that increase your highest secondary stat) if at all? Or does it just ignore that?

north leaf
#

He's my tank though, I've adapted to running pure crit buff traits

lone junco
#

If they are guildy then yell at them.

limber lion
#

@tepid frost If you use Raidbots.com, they take into account all reorigination stacks you have. You can even set it to 0-10 yourself.

lone junco
#

Can still pull 10mobs and give a 3sec gap for stealth.

#

Pure crit is still good for FOK.

#

If you have zero restealth. Then try 3scent.

desert pelican
#

No point of chainpull if u run with rogue in group

north leaf
#

I was able to pick up 1 piece for SoB, but it replaces my 375 AotT

rain breach
#

hmm we get Slice & dice as assa?

#

with 8,1

north leaf
#

source?

rain breach
#

Your
Assassination (Level 36)
Envenom
Eviscerate refreshes your Slice and Dice duration to its 5 combo point maximum.

#

ord does it for us refesh rupture?

arctic isle
#

no that has been in since beta

limber lion
#

Nevermind, still fucked.

fading spade
#

well. after 20 or so various level shrine keys i finally got a galecallers lol

#

so where in the opener do you pop this bad boy

rain breach
#

so atelast no real changes on the PTR for ASSA

arctic isle
#

unless ur class is fucked you will only get new traits

rain breach
#

seems they nerfed SS again oir this are the nerf we alread y got?

arctic isle
#

already in game

rain breach
#

k

#

do we have someone her with around 28-30%+ Crit?

#

here

arctic isle
#

i doubt anyone can get to 30% crit

lethal swan
#

anyone have a garrote weakaura where the timer changes colors if its empowered

royal lantern
#

im at 24%crit, every single piece gives me crit right now

tropic tulip
#

pop trinkets with vendetta in opener

loud pilot
#

is assa guide @urban deltahold solid?

daring imp
#

yea

peak saffron
#

I have 28% crit in m+ gear

fading spade
#

@tropic tulip ty

north leaf
#

What would you guys say is a reasonable uptime for Elaborate Planning? Most of my raid logs are showing me at 50-65%

fading spade
#

i have a hard time with that on some fights as well

#

wowanalyzer is a good tool for that kind of stuff

north leaf
#

That's where I'm grabbing my numbers from 😄

sudden trench
#

on Zekvos i have 77% uptime

#

Think it all depends on you pooling

daring imp
#

70ish % is nice

#

around that much

north leaf
#

Is your downtime sitting at about 50% with 77% uptime?

sudden trench
north leaf
#

🤔 Well I have some work to do then.

sudden trench
#

its not perfect but gives you an idea

#

there are times when you do not use anything for about 5 sec

rain breach
#

hmm k so we arn't able to get taht hightb on crit atm

daring imp
#

maybe with 10 stacks of array

#

dunno lul

tepid frost
#

@limber lion Where do you change the stacks of Reorigination array? can't find the option on Raidbots (maybe I'm just blind). Do you have to change something in the string you get from Simulationcraft?

strange python
#

@sudden trench how do you see that information?

north leaf
#

@strange python Get your logs from raid, go here https://wowanalyzer.com paste the log link at the top and select your name. Then scroll down and boom, you've got it

strange python
#

@north leaf never knew this tool existed. Think i love you a little bit

north leaf
#

I raid lead. This is how I help my team improve 😃

vague portal
#

shrouded suffocation or twisting the knife

burnt mist
#

so if I do x3 garrote then vanish and x3 garrote again but with 3 target that didnt had garrote damage still get "bugged" or should be fine?

north leaf
#

The SS bug happens when you garrote outside of the subterfuge window

true aurora
#

You will be fine goose

burnt mist
#

k thanks 😄

strange python
#

Interesting hoq on my 99% and 100 for item level it tells me im shit

#

@north leaf i dont trust it :)

vestal wren
#

wowanalyzer did only support sub in legion

north leaf
#

It tells everyone they are shit. Shows you how to improve. It isn't a catch all for mistakes, but definitely can show you where you're improvement windows are

queen moth
#

Can someone Tell me how i Open packs in m+? Or more like how i do aoe?

strange python
#

It seems to not take pooling into account or understand how elaborate planning windows work

queen moth
#

Ä

vestal wren
#

it comes down to whoever maintains it

strange python
#

99.8% uptime on my dots. The rest i feel is just bullshit

north leaf
#

It also tells you that Battle pot of Intellect is the pot you should be using. So theres that

strange python
#

Lol

tepid frost
#

How do you change the stacks of Reorigination Array on Raidbots? I can't seem to find that option. Do you have to change something in the simulationcraft output or something?

strange python
#

@north leaf that made me smile

vestal wren
#

@tepid frost advanced options, there is a check box where you change simc version

#

if you tick it you get the array as a option

strange python
#

@vestal wren i feel drastically weak. 3 raid resets not a single azerite piece

woven night
#

Greetings

vestal wren
#

gear is a big factor

strange python
#

I hope my m10 cache or this reset coming will shine some light into this dying star

blissful dove
#

great system, azerite armor.

vestal wren
#

and you need to have luck^^

blissful dove
#

master assassins mantle was the last legendary I could possibly get for one of my loot specs in Legion

woven night
#

i play assassination rogue, right now my main focus is raiding and also mythic dungeons. My item level is at 346. I'm at Uldir Mythrax boss but from a few fights until this boss i have been told that i'm outputting low dps. Anyone here that plays sin spec at raids could tell me what build they are using, any particular gems and /or enchants?

strange python
#

First 2 weeks. 95-99s, 2 x 100 for bracket and last reset after ss nerf and no other pieces to rorate in i still wrecked but felt like i was a wet fish. If you get my drift

blissful dove
#

not really digging the waiting a week to get gloves in my cache system

vestal wren
#

ss was overtuned

#

and other ppl have probably higher gear now so more competition

strange python
#

@vestal wren indeed. I am jusr salty i wasnt lucky enough to loot replacements before they balanced it

blissful dove
#

That's going to happen a lot if they don't figure out the azerite availability and balancing

tepid frost
#

ah, finally found it. I really am blind. Thanks, mate @vestal wren

strange python
#

@woven night use simulationcraft addon with raidbots.com and pawn addon to find stat weights to optimise gear

blissful dove
#

Never know what's next

strange python
#

Read the guides in the pinned section of discord (top right, looks like a drawing pin)

#

Then practice your rotations and cds on a target dummy. And then practice on bosses whilst avoiding mechanics.

queen moth
#

Is there a Guide or video guide that covers m+ ? For example which dots to use when? In the ravenholdt Guide is nothing of that sort

vestal wren
#

also hope you dont get send through early on mother 😛

strange python
#

@vestal wren lol. I demanded in a very pleasant way to be left till last

#

No point sending a dot based class through early :)

#

@queen moth try get 3 x ss pieces, run crimson tempest. G,g,g ct then rupture and fok spam

queen moth
#

Ok ty

#

Bc some ppl told me to rupture all before crimson

north leaf
#

I'm going to have to fiddle with SS in M+, from what I've seen it isn't quite as effective as stacking crit traits

#

Unless you're running Scent of Blood, always CT first

#

Get that ticking on everything, then rupture stuff inbetween FoN spam

queen moth
#

Ok ty ❤

golden mulch

gives me almost 1% over 370 spyglass for some reason

I wish hidden blades was viable in m+

Fathoms still better than both rofl

oh thats 10 seconds and 8 stacks. disregard

#

is crimson tempest decent in keys?

#

@surreal rivet the way to go this week and probably all other weeks

if tyrannical then u go PB

Hi guys, I am considering rolling a Rogue as a main. My main so far is warr, which is nice because I can queue up as a tank to normal, hc and mythic dungs and basicaly any pve activity that is not with a guild is very fast with almost no waiting time for me. And I don't mind tanking, actually I kinda enjoy it. But, just today I discovered like 2-3 dungeons have nice use for rogues. Here's a gate rogues can unlock to save some time, here you can stealth and chase a dog which stands near enemies, here you can cast that group stealth and just pass trash to the boss itself. And I imagine that I will discover more and more cool tricks and uses for rogues. So what I would like to know is, do you have it SIGNIFICANTELY harder to queue up and to find a group, thank any tank? I think I would enjoy playing rogue, I just don't know if I could handle the wait times for everything "dungeon finder" related... Any tips, info and knowledge on this will be highly appreciated 😃

civic palm
#

Is there a chapter 2?

#

DPS takes longer to queue than tank, yes.

strange python
#

Just have high rio score

lofty sand
#

at glance I thought it was a copypasta

manic stirrup
#

@daring imp how can you tell from your weakaura whether the damage bonus has expired? From stealth

strange python
#

DPS is oversaturated

north leaf
#

@manic stirrup If you aren't using a weak aura specifically for it change your stealth bar and your main bar slightly so you don't accidentally apply an additional garrote

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.

balmy perch
#

it would be nice if that fixed that

thick jacinth
#

kinda ridiculous it hasn't been fixed

#

been weeks

golden mulch
#

Q times are irrelevant bc once you reach the "endgame" you search for groups in the tool not with Qing

arctic isle
#

its the same thing

#

unless ur ilvl is high

thick jacinth
#

380+ or you're not coming to my normal uldir

#

link mythic 8.1 raid for invite

golden mulch
#

^ this guy raids

thick jacinth
#

that's really how it be sometimes lmfao

ember ermine
#

you mean this guy pugs

arctic isle
#

meh i only join groups with super high ilvl requirements

thick jacinth
#

I only pug on alts.

#

Like finding a guild that does alt runs these days

#

is so hard.

#

sorry finding an oceanic* guild that does alt runs these days is hard.

ember ermine
#

just get into t200

#

ez alt runs

arctic isle
#

yeah alt runs are in most guilds

#

unless ur like still in a heroic prog guild right now

thick jacinth
#

nah im like 3/8m

#

vectis best attempt 12% feelbadman

arctic isle
#

jst join content

thick jacinth
#

that guilds asking to flop before next tier LOL.

arctic isle
#

behind 16 hour guilds while raiding 40 btw

thick jacinth
#

that and I couldn't play rogue alongside ching tbh

#

chings garbo at rogue and he's the most geared oce player

#

triggered.

arctic isle
#

meh all the top streamers get carried somewhere

thick jacinth
#

i don't get it though

#

how are they top streamers

arctic isle
#

ching isnt

thick jacinth
#

when they aren't entertaining or good at the game

arctic isle
#

but he has been around for a long time

thick jacinth
#

that's more directed at quin than anyone else

#

ching is entertaining to a degree and i like the realness he has.

arctic isle
#

just like asmon

thick jacinth
#

but quins fuckin' annoying and trash

arctic isle
#

opps i cant say that word

#

quin appeals to young people

#

with his persona

thick jacinth
#

because he's a child?

#

LOL

arctic isle
#

him and asmon bait reactions and it works

safe matrix
arctic isle
#

yeah break up the convo while nobody is takling

#

stop being anal

safe matrix
#

doesnt relate to sin

thick jacinth
#

sorry sir

#

anyone got much prog on vectis?

#

feel like the fight sucks for melee when you're in your groups and the ad spawns on the other side.

chrome mirage
#

So hidden blades or crimson tempest for teeming?

strange python
#

crimson sims highest

#

But its 😴

#

none of them are very interactive

royal lantern
#

cus poison bomb is so much more interactive

#

´´oh boy, a passive proc, thats interactive gameplay i love´´

#

You guys using Overwhelming Power or better to stay away from it for most content?

amber arrow
#

@thick jacinth watch the timer and stack back up as the debuff is about to expire. U can get a lot if uptime on add even if its on the other side of boss

barren marsh
#

I think overwhelming is great

cold dragon
#

Yeah, just worried about losing stacks when taking damage

barren marsh
#

Also pain is the goat

#

I believe you lose stacks every 1 second too, but I think it’s good still. Highest simming 2nd trait

thick jacinth
#

thanks @amber arrow I might need to make a weakaura for the debuff alone because I can never tell the timer on the debuff unless it's on me.

cold dragon
#

Ill just give it a whirl then

velvet kernel
#

Someone mind taking a peek at my logs for tonight?

vestal wren
#

@limber dew my old guild send all balance druids through last and rogues middle group i dont expect common logic to apply to the average wow guild leader

velvet kernel
#

according to my guild rogues are amazing for the blobs

hybrid harness
#

they are if you play outlaw and they send more than 4 people through at a time

How do you guys open on vectis?
G-R-G-Vendetta-Mut-Rup-Exsang- Mut-Envenom- Mut- Rupture on add -> Vanish -> G Add -> 2x G Vectis -> Envenom right?

mortal warren
#

basicly yes

thick jacinth
#

I don't vanish till the second ad

#

because my guild heroes on pull.

bitter umbra
#

are you doing that with shrouded suff?

thick jacinth
#

only got 1x SS bc it's bad in raids now.

karmic ingot
#

Hey guys. I just got my first Galecaller's Boon. How do you guys typically use it with Assassination? Obviously I want it up for every Vendetta, which should be easy to set up. Do you guys hold Exsanguinate for 15 seconds to align with the trinket between Vendettas, or just use trinket and Exsang on CD independently?

gentle rapids
#

I delay exsang for trinket since it snapshots on your haste

strange python
#

is sub>sin still on M Fetid?

karmic ingot
#

Oh, I didn't realize it snapshotted, that's good to know.

#

Will keep me from raging if I have to move out of it lol.

thick jacinth
#

Look at logs tbh @strange python

unkempt belfry
#

Careful holding though for trinket, 15 seconds means every three held is a loss of an exsang in the fight.

velvet kernel
#

well

#

with that u need to see how long a fight is

tranquil dust
#

whats everyone running

#

for traits now

velvet kernel
#

mutilate ss and archive

#

thats what im doing

tranquil dust
#

im running double archive

#

nad 1 ss

velvet kernel
#

ye i just am getting super unlucky with shoulders

thorn crater
#

exsa with nerfed SS? 😏

bright quartz
#

guys, sorry for interrupting your current conversation but i just run a sim with my rogue and i saw this

thorn crater
#

🤔

bright quartz
#

is that a raidbots/sim bug that there is an mutilate into evenom with 4 cp?

thorn crater
#

@bright quartz thats prolly a double crit mutilate giving 4 CPs

velvet kernel
#

^^

bright quartz
#

interesting^^

pastel vault
#

ya what's wrong with that sim? looks normal

bright quartz
#

i didnt know that mutilate is coded as a both hand strike^^. details only shows one mutilate all the time

random coyote
#

Maybe read what mutilate does?

bright quartz
#

good point

versed mica
#

Is sin dead after the SS nerf?

bright quartz
#

no it is still most played of all rogue speccs in m+ keys

strange python
#

yes sin is dead

#

no1 is playing it

valid moss
#

yep everyone rolled sub

#

only hipsters play sin atm

versed mica
#

Sin was my go to spec for reliable dps when I get annoyed at my bad luck with outlaw

#

I hate sub with a passion

thorn crater
#

u guys are joking right?

#

sin is destroying in mythics

sweet sedge
#

i just started doing keys today.. i love assassination

strange python
#

yes mate we're joking

thorn crater
#

and the only fight that its excused to use sub is zul

#

oh

#

lol

strange python
#

only shit thing about sin is crimson tempest

#

and that u have to use it in keys

versed mica
#

Poison bomb not good enough for keys?

strange python
#

pb is bad for keys

thorn crater
#

meh i use it in tyrannical

strange python
#

wish fans of knives talent was viable

#

why is pb bad in keys? it procs pretty often for me

#

because crimson is simply better

#

sims more

#

for 3-4 packs

valid moss
#

rng proc vs controlled damage too

thorn crater
#

crimson puts u on top of aoe cleave

#

it shouldnt but it does

#

on high keys

#

topping dk and frost is pretty funny

strange python
#

3x SS puts me on top most of the time already, only thing that really beats me is a DH

#

yeah but maintaining 3rd poison

#

nah fam

thorn crater
#

honestly? did u see the new sim?

#

apparently archive rupture and 1 SS is better than x3 SS

strange python
#

can't get any uldir pieces to drop for me

#

trust me I want some archive

#

only other traits I have is 2x SB

valid moss
#

😨 know that feeling

strange python
#

@thorn crater I have all 3 traits on 3 different pieces actually

#

hold on

#

let me sim

thorn crater
#

its what herodamage shows

strange python
#

Also, you're taking for m+?

thorn crater
#

though

strange python
#

Oh

thorn crater
#

have to be over 355 i think

#

at least

#

yes m+

versed mica
#

@thorn crater where do you find that sim? I haven’t seen it

strange python
#

I've 370 archive, 355 SS, 340 rupture

valid moss
#

"when you clear 8/8hc and get shitty trinket that sims 200dps under fathoms" ytho

thorn crater
#

go by stack

#

and check each value

versed mica
#

Oh sorry, missed your previous message

thorn crater
#

of every trait

strange python
#

I'm 361, only good azerite piece I have is the 355 PVP one for SS, the other are just normal m0 pieces

thorn crater
#

mada mada dane

strange python
#

by stack

#

SB is the best

thorn crater
#

read what i wrote

#

then u will understand

#

the whole of it

#

each SB has a value of 4,2%

strange python
#

I tried simming with 2 SB and 1 SS and was doing less damage

thorn crater
#

single scent is 5,95 , archive 5,61 and 1 SS for the aoe 4,89

#

try 3 -5 bosses hectic cleave 40 seconds

strange python
#

how much difference in dps is there between CT and PB

thorn crater
#

on fortified a lot

strange python
#

i guess if youre doing big pulls CT comes out way ahead?

#

rly?

#

hmm

thorn crater
#

but if u cant play CT dont bother talenting it

strange python
#

ye

#

im just bad with it atm tbh

thorn crater
#

basically u pandemic CT every time on adds

#

it becomes a priority

#

over rup over anything else

strange python
#

rly

#

hmm

#

how many mobs

#

is it worth using on

thorn crater
#

3+

strange python
#

hmm

#

so how many seconds left on it

#

do i renew

thorn crater
#

2

#

1,8

strange python
#

interesting

#

i just feel like it delays my first rupture

thorn crater
#

fuck rupture

strange python
#

and mobs only take 20 secs to die

#

half the time

thorn crater
#

its less dmg

strange python
#

rly

#

thats where im fucking up with it

thorn crater
#

CT scales with CPS

#

rup doesnt

#

u rup for 2-3 CPs to 3 targets

strange python
#

if u have SS, you garrote x3 and then CT

thorn crater
#

then spam CT

strange python
#

ye

#

do you just use ct for the bleed

#

or use it as a finisher

thorn crater
#

its a lot of dmg

strange python
#

over envenom

thorn crater
#

its like keeping rupture up on solo targets

#

u keep CT up on aoe

#

over anything

strange python
#

ye

#

ok

#

so

#

you do your first 3 garrotes

#

apply CT straight away

thorn crater

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.

strange python
#

so how much bonus agil u get from 3 targets

#

around 400 ?

thorn crater
#

@safe matrix question. for how long are we going to consider SS bugged and not working as intended? have htey admitted it?: cause if u vanish with a normal garrote on a target and start using empowered ones the normal one gets buffed up as well. doesnt that mean it works as intended?

#

370?

#

sth like that

safe matrix
#

no

#

that means lazy coding

Feint works for me on quaking..

safe matrix
#

It'll be considered bugged until they change the behaviour

thorn crater
#

cant say for sure

safe matrix
#

if it wasnt bugged, it would be included in the tooltip

unkempt belfry

It's definitely a damage reduction to feint the quake

sims higher with no SS traits

primal sigil
#

i ahve double ss and titans but my double dose blight borne and titans sims higher than my double ss and 1 titans

#

so i think its normal to sim higher

nimble cobalt
#

also does the laser matrix trait stack? and also does that sim feel low for my ilvl?

primal sigil
#

but thats ona 5 min fight on 2-3 mins my ss and titans is still higher, as is on aoe... so sticking to tht in m+

#

well im 362 i sim 14.4 without ss and 14.2 with so shrugs

nimble cobalt
#

wep ilvl? trinks?

I sim 14,5k at 364

#

I only have 1 trait SS what should my opener look like? Is it worth doing 3 point rupture before exsang??

#

The guide on site says to even with 1 trait but seems odd

IIRC the opener in the guide refreshes the Opener Rupture before using Exsanguinate.

do you have to use vendetta before applying bleeds or do an existing bleed get boosted if you use vendetta afterwards?

So even with 1 trait of SS I should follow the rotation exactly on guide?

#

I'm 341 ilvl with a 325 OH and doing only like 9k on m+ bosses...I feel like I should be doing more

1 SS is strong enough to influence a change to the opener, yes.

Is the single target dps loss with Crimson Tempest not big enough to warrant poison bomb?

Would it make that big a difference?

depends on your stats, my sim is with TB too. With Exsang, it's like 13.9K maybe, or a high 13.8K

@civic palm oy, is there a way to make one exactly like that but only for empowered garrotes? @_@"

#

not for normal ones, only for emp ones

civic palm
#

Use your brain.

#

That's always at least 1, or 0.

strange python
#

Yo

#

Thanks for that wa

#

Actually won't have to look for the small icons above npcs to see if garrotes up or not

civic palm
#

You should probably be tracking their duration and position regardless.

strange python
#

Well it'll be useful for empowered garrotes with SS

civic palm
#

There are better ways of showing the duration of EMP garrotes, just having a number doesn't do much.

strange python
#

I mean

#

I just need it to know when empowered garrotes run out

civic palm
#

Sure.

strange python

Wouldn't be a thing if blizz fixed the bug

but oh well 😄

Still would be.

You don't want to overwrite them with potato Garrotes.

slender smelt
#

So can somebody pls clarify the aze traits for me? It is really confusing what to aim for. Im sitting at 1archive 2ss rn

#

Q1. Is 1SS mandatory? (When Not running 3SB )

#

Q2. Uldir traits still better outside of uldir?

frigid sleet
#

what type of content are you refering to

slender smelt
#

M+ and Raid

#

Each

#

Simming now seems not trustable

frigid sleet
#

for m+ you still want SS

cold dragon
#

So many top rogue parses with poison bomb in M+. I just dont know anymore

frigid sleet
#

scent of blood is fine aswel depending on your azerith pieces

#

raiding wise the uldir traits will prolly overcome your other ones, then again it kinda comes down to your differents azerith pieces

#

so sim it

slender smelt
#

So like 3SS for m+?

cold dragon
#

Raiding wise, the uldir traits will 100% over come your other ones at 5 stacks

slender smelt
#

Then SS is shit for patchwerk raid?

frigid sleet
#

its not shit but its not as strong as before, so other options are possible

cold dragon
#

according to bloodmallet, yes its worse than double dose/sharpened blades/Dagger in the back

slender smelt
#

Or do I maintain 1SS for cp

#

Ugh such confusion

#

Sim tells me to use blightborne

#

Wtf..

cold dragon
#

Yep, 1 SS is not very good according to my sims too

#

its only good with multi target dotting for me

slender smelt
#

We really need a portable azerite reforger

cold dragon
#

actually I just double checked, my 370 shoulders with Rez Fury do the same dps on 3 targets, so just gonna run 370 for the single target on bosses

golden mulch
#

i usually use 1 SS trait for the CP gain on raid ST

storm rock
#

So is SB the way to go now? I'm hearing mixed feelings about it

strange python
#

Might be a silly question, but I was wondering how people sim for M+ using raidbots. Something like patchwerk, 3-5 bosses, 1-2 minute fight length? Want to look at what gear to gun for since I'd like to focus mostly on M+

cold dragon
#

@golden mulch Do you have Azerite armor 30ilvl higher than the SS pieces?

#

@strange python Yeah I use it for that. 4 bosses/1 minute. For what its worth, the stat weights come out with the correct stats on top

strange python
#

Perfect, thanks man

craggy raptor
#

In what scenarios do we pool as assa?

golden mulch
#

for myth+ people sim 6T 40sec no buffs

#

thats the standard myth+ sim

#

no buffs is important as raidbuffs and BL fuck sims up a lot

strange python
#

been testing out CT and PB for m+

#

Guess i'll be sticking to PB since its barely a dps loss

golden mulch
#

if you play it right CT should be way ahead as even for ST PB is only a 2% gain if even

strange python
#

I hate CT

golden mulch
#

well why? too hard to play?

#

which is pretty hard to do

crisp hollow
#

we don't struggle with cleave/swapping compositionally but yeah i guess i'll follow the priority

proven moth
#

yeah sims made me swap SS gear for uldir's D:

crisp hollow
#

is 17s a sufficient window to poison blade it if its up or just hold (implying it dies at an ideal time frame)

exotic glen
#

poison blade

#

toxic blade?

crisp hollow
#

yes toxic blade sorry lol

exotic glen
#

add respawns every 25 seconds

#

toxic blade CD is 25 seconds

#

ill let you guess if you should hold it or not

crisp hollow
#

okay sounds good 😃 thanks!

exotic glen
#

np

crisp hollow
#

wait but does the timing get thrown off at all with the initial spawn because toxic blade is a tiny bit delayed in the opener

#

or is that 2ish seconds negligible in practice?

exotic glen
#

just hold it for first spawn

I could see prey being better in some situations though

Prey might be better on a +10 for bursting down the Infested

Iron wire is beast

Infested is a joke tbh

We need a new affix already

It's so boring

Is it easy? No one in my guild wants to run a 10 because they say it's too hard.

My guild isn't really hardcore or anything though

That's cause this week is cancer overtuned not because infested is hard

Highest I've done is a +9

Yeah fuck this week, but they were complaining the first two weeks too

infested itself is really easy to deal with

It's just one mob with Infested right, then you burst it down and kill the worms?

Tb is pretty bad in m+. Everything is aoe.

I forget about the energy return on exang. But it's there

It's also prio dmg without having to waste CP on env when you could CT

Tb requires contact. Exang could rip and go.

torn wind
#

so im looking through a lot of rogues in m+ currently and theyre all still running ssx3 in m+ this week - is that a case of them not bothering to farm azerite armor or should i not trust bloodmallet/herodamage for which traits are simming the highest?

gloomy stump
#

You could stun a player for 10 seconds then blind, sap for 20 and stun again for 8

#

3x ss is best for m+ more add dmg

rain tree
#

Btw when it comes to artifact weapons, which LOOKS the best

torn wind
#

even in a fight like fetid devourer mythic/heroic im seeing like 10% of rogues running sharpened blades

rain tree
#

because kingslayers look awesome

torn wind
#

it's either full uldir traits (which makes sense) or a mix of uldir + ss traits

gloomy stump
#

Bloodmallet has it on the page man. 3x sharpened blades is best thats why. And the uldir traits are only good in uldir with aray active

#

it's just odd that out of 38 rogues that killed mythic fetid devourer this week, theres a total of one sharpened blades trait

#

so im just trying to figure out if this is a case of them not bothering to get new azerite armor or something else

solid nova
#

And ofc, theres the class hall in Dala

#

cheers, thx

#

Sharpend blades isn't that great.

#

If you're using herodamage, consider a 2 stack the max

#

because you need at least 1 array

gloomy stump
#

How are you supposed to get new azerite armour ? You cant just farm them

#

Thats why

torn wind

right, it still puts it at 1320 vs ssx2 at 980 - i imagine it's gotta be just a case of them not bothering with getting sharpened blades

astral sundial
#

@torn wind at my gear 2Xss still sims better then two SB

#

just sim your own

torn wind
#

higher ilvl on the 2Xss?

gloomy stump
#

If its 370+ it doesnt matter what trait it is. Its better than the 340 you can "farm"
Its not like you can choose what azerite trait you get

astral sundial
#

@torn wind no, same IL

torn wind
#

interesting, i wonder how much something like haste affects it

proper igloo
#

with aoe opener you guys do 2garrote ct?

#

with ct i mean

gloomy stump
#

Garrote 3 targerts then tempest

jolly notch
#

is shrouded suffocation getting nerfed on ptr? wtf

fathom echo
#

how many targets do you apply rupture to before you start FoK then Env

terse bone
#

pretty sure it is just a tooltip update and not a nerf

jolly notch
#

well wasnt the nerf a 40% nerf?

proper igloo
#

dont you want to get the ct off while in stealth?

terse bone
#

yes and that was like 2 weeks ago

jolly notch
#

from 39/73 doesn't = .4 though

gloomy stump
#

No check pins

#

@fathom echo all of them and build cp woth fok

jolly notch
#

oh fair enough

gloomy stump
#

@proper igloo what for?

#

Hey every1 ST and Crimson Tempest with Executioneer. Is it worth or not?

dark token

CT is only worth on 2+ targets

I Go 3x garotte, ct, Start fok for cp and rupt all targets

honest field
#

Thanks

Refreshing ct < 2sec

dark token
#

do <3 sec for >5 targets

strange python
#

I thought greater than 5 targets you just FoK spam CT

static tapir
#

But how should i refresh garotte, overwrite 1 of the empowered at 6 sec to have it ready when the other empowered runs out?

nooooooooo

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.

Ok am doing it right then 👌

#

And 3x ss is still the best for m +?

strange python
#

yup

#

am i seeing correctly that they buffed poisoned knife ?

#

on ptr

#

or is that old buff

north spruce
#

is the aura damage/healing changes new nerfs or just from previous hotfixes? (6% to outlaw, 7% to sub)

safe matrix

yes it is

vestal abyss
#

Am I right in saying that on taloc the first vendetta is on pull and the second is at the end of the elevator?

weak pine
#

Depends really

wise whale
#

elevator starts az 60& and last for 70 sec

weak pine
#

If your comp can't get the boss down to transition in 2 mins then might as well use it before

#

Any other case use at the end of ride

wise whale
#

it also edepends on total kill time if you can not get a 3rd vendette use your second when your parts lusts

#

party

weak pine
#

Lust should be either on pull or at the end of elevator anyways

I recently switch to Assassination and there are a few things I am unclear on. I checked the guide and pins and am not able to find any in-depth information on EP. Should I be trying to maintain the buff at the cost of 3 CP Envenoms? Is it worth clipping the duration of EP to use an Envenom within the EP buff? Should I not worry about it and just focus on not clipping the Envenom buff?

dark token
#

you clip it when you can

#

use only 4+ envenoms dont maintain it over everything else you wont have enough energy

#

sin is about pooling energy when you have nothing to do so you can keep clipping EP

#

or perfectly refresh dots

mild raptor
#

That's what I've been doing. I toyed around with 3 CP finishers, but wasn't sure if that was the best way to go about it.

Clipping EP during TB is pretty dope 👌

what does EP stand for? it's the Envenom buff?

ah thank you

wise whale

its a talent

dark token
#

idk what you tb guys are smoking no matter what i try to do esang is always quite a bit ahead of tb in sims

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

and feels better to play

mild raptor
#

I feel like I'm having issues with CP generation. My haste is pretty high but my crit is lacking.

wise whale
#

for me tb sims higher

#

and i also finish higher on 10 out of 10 5min dummy tests

#

or lets say 8 out of 10

#

playing MP of cause

dark token
#

you shouldnt have issues with cp gen

#

you almost never get a 4cp mut

#

its normal

mild raptor
#

I'm assuming using a 3 CP Envenom to clip the EP buff would be worth it if you were at the tail end of your TB buff and wouldn't be able to fit another Mutilate in before TB expires.

slender hare
#

Does MP realler sim higher than EP for you? it has always been EP for me during bfa

dark token
#

dont try to minmax theorycraft if you havent got the normal rotation down :p

devout jolt

What level of AGI stacks does simming take into mind when sim Archive trait gear?

dark token
#

1 to 20

wise whale
#

yes it does sim higher

devout jolt
#

ah so it changes

dark token
#

yes

#

like normal

wise whale
#

i also like the vanish, tb, env, 30stack poisoned knife crit kombo

weak pine
#

People who use the PK trait

#

Smh

pseudo hamlet
#

It's so annoying I'm not even using it thought it sims higher(like 0,5% upgrade). It's just not worth tracking the stacks and clicking additional button for such a miserable difference in DPS.

weak pine
#

Just get a WA for it and press it on 30

#

I'd like to get a 3x SB at 370+ just for luls

#

Actually it might even be bis on vectis, since generally the add is hard to kill before 2nd cast, especially on mythic

The SS Garrote bug, is it only for single target or is it bugged if i apply 3 ss garrote to different targets and then 1 regular to another target?

safe matrix

its basically whenever you apply a new garrote all your active ones lose the SS buff

so you need multiple active garrotes for it to happen

Well that sucks

this is some clown shit, if i was a dev and my work was projecting like this i would just quit quite frankly

Yes, but im there rn and cant find it

u are so ignorant

@arctic isle Again for the countless time of telling you. You don't need to insult people you don't agree with.

#

If you cant contribute without insulting someone, then dont contribute at all.

arctic isle
#

what ignorant isnt an insult ?

#

u know u can be ignorant to something btw

solid nova
#

Your name is cropping up more and more. Knock it off. You've had enough warnings and mutes to know how to conduct yourself around here.

#

It's becoming tedious to continually tell you

arctic isle
#

im being serious

solid nova
#

So am i.

arctic isle
#

in what world is calling someone ignorant an insult

safe matrix
#

Anyways convo over and moved to DMs

#

resume talks about assassination

strange python
#

excuse me princess but a startup would pull better tuning than this garbo

arctic isle
#

i need to know tho

#

because apparently im getting banned

#

if i say ignorant again

desert hazel
#

Saying someone is ignorant on a subject is not a insult, everyone just takes the word ignorant and thinks a insult

civic palm
#

@strange python Are you seriously insinuating that Blizzard is in charge of 3rd Party Datamining and that these values are clearly not from a nerf that has already happened?

arctic isle
#

exactly davy

high ingot
#

just DM the mod about it and stop this drama in here?

solid nova
#

As soon as someone posts you dont agree with, you're eager to share your opinions on a continual basis, regardless of what it entails. Its deliberately disrupting spec channels.

Knock it off.

arctic isle
#

i mean u werent here last night

#

it was the same conbo

#

between me and him

#

hes just doing it again

#

fishing

solid nova
#

Doesnt mean its acceptable. And again, you shouldnt need to be continual told.

#

The conversation is over.

arctic isle
#

my bad for thinking ignorant wasnt an insult lul

solid nova
#

Np

arctic isle
#

ur ignorant

strange python
#

@civic palm not really but apparently something doesn't add up and it's quite evident undocumented changes happened already or will happen

solid nova
#

And your continual disregard for the rules will only shorten your stay here

#

Your call

civic palm
#

They're old changes, that were documented. Datamining is not accurate once servers come up as there is no telling where that data is coming from.

strange python
#

how do you explain both sites made the same "mistake" to include assa spells under wrong specs

arctic isle
#

ur literally wasting ur breath i told him this yesterday

#

its a lost cause

strange python
#

can you stop babbling about what is lost and won and actually step up with facts instead

civic palm
#

Because they can't not make the mistake, as it's not a mistake on their end, they're just scrubbing data + timeline + patch meta data.

#

and the old stuff shows up as "new" even though it's old.

high ingot
#

On the topic of assassination: Currently progressing on hc ghuun and I feel more dmg in p2 would really help smoothen our tries. Do you guys think it's a good call to delay first vendetta until ghuun becomes targetable? Should be close but I think most p2s are 2min from the start to the first beam. too risky or worth it?

civic palm
#

Because they don't filter shit that has happened already for fear of missing things.

strange python
#

again speculations

#

no facts

desert hazel
#

@high ingot first big worm should die to beam so no

shrewd night
#

@high ingot worms aren't to be touched at all tho

high ingot

bad wording. I meant ghuun with "big worm"

The datamining is not composed of facts either. > _>"
