before anyone says to check the pins I'm going to ask a pinned question
aint gotta be dicks about it js
it might be better to keep yours, but still should sim
i had a 340 BitS one for my sub set and a 370 without it was making me lose dps
thank you

Anyone knows where the fuck you buy the pvp elite enchantment?
what's more important envenom or ep uptime?

@dusk quartz
most of my sin specific macros are to reduce the number of buttons. like mut/fan with shift or tb/ex
i cant think why youd need anything more complicated than that
@severe niche grats mate
is bursting blood potion any good?
16k club hmu other big ballers https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/wArjkVkcjHDuZQ5DBXT4dZ
gimme ur daggers
damn :\
im struggling in the 13.6k club 😦
hows the affixes for m+ this week
I have a +9 TolDagor
Easy af
i just feel like i've been unlucky
the ret i play with
has 395 bis weapon
like
he'll be using that
until the next tier
and i'm using
350/340 daggers
just farm more m+? they drop up to 370 IL
yea 😦 you and me both man
so unlucky for me
i did like 2 or 3 m+ in a row and got no loot
sorry, i got some artifact power
it's really demotivating 😦
yeah
i did a +9 tol dagor
and first boss
literally just despawned
at 4% health
it was like
10 yards from where it spawns
and it just
dissapeared
ahahah rip
last week
yea, TD might be tough this week because of tyrannical
Rogue makes last boss much easier
shadow stepping
You soak 1st 3rd and 4th deadeye
It's more so making it so other dont have to reposition after deadeye because you can take 3 of the 4-5 that go out that's really useful
And if a 6th comes you have evasion back for it
I'll take shroud over that in every single key
yeah
ofc
what is keeping you guys motivated?
I'm really losing motivation to keep pushing on my rogue 😦
rogue is more fun then my other 120s
and I also enjoy pvp more then pvp
fuck
pvp more then pve
and rogue is stronger then my alts in both
wanted to try a healer
but i've literally never healed before
i am actually trying to keep myself motivated as well @bright vessel seeing others getting nerfed but other traits buffed is definitely taking a hit on my rogue motivation bar though
rogue is still really strong
compared to other classes
in both pvp and pve
moreso in pvp
wouldnt be surprised if sin gets nerfed though tbh
i dunno man, im not so sure if what i think about DH/Warrs is right or whatever u wanna call it but it only takes them a button to be top overall
im probably just salty but i realy dont know
im assuming cheat death for one
could be wrong
tank first one
cheat death next
evasion last

yea i dunno, maybe i should try a diff class or somethin
any suggestions? hunters/mages ok?
Dont try pala
dont try pala?
yea im not going to lol
ret is really strong
Boring af
yeah
snooze town
i guess
Ret just strong in arena
they're good dps as well
huh sims really dont want me to stack archive traits
@arctic crow reorganization array does not stack
so besides ret, are hunters also 3 button wonders?
I also have a mage, warrior, hunter, priest at 110
complex*
mage is probably the most complex imo
they seem to be wanting to make hunters/warriors beginner classes tbh
fire is fun as fuck
True
its sad
cuz if fire was good
i would level my mage
not that fire is bad
but its just
theres no reason to play it
compared to frost
i guess the burst requires less setup
but thats all i canr eally thing of
The only classes ive never played are DH, Monk and pala
well with the speed at whihc they push changes nowadays anything can happen
yeah
yeah
make some minor progress on alts
never get fully cucked by nerfs
and meta shifts
theres no way dk stays bottom tier the whole xpac
so hopefully its worth playing eventually
dks are literally the worst pvp class atm
as rogue in which group u should be on Mother? Last one for better dps?
it just depends on your raid setup - I mean, at the end it comes down to just what your raid leader decideds so.
Whoever gets sent earlier will parse lower, the fight is dumb
If u tryna parse max, u wanna be literally last
Insane downtime in the next room
bcs i want kill myself when im in first groups ...i just watching on blobs as assa
But, someone's gotta be sent, rogues have decent interrupts :/
i heard that casters have little problem with killing blobs? they cant cast or something like that?
dont let your raid send u first if you play sin
if they insist, switch to outlaw
outlaw is actually top in that fight if you get sent early
idk why but I was 3rd on dps as outlaw on our first kill
which was better than expected
tbh getting sent first and then doing the strat where the 1st 3 grp go kinda insta after the first fire -.-
then u kil 173561753 adds and sit afk for 2 mins
-.-
is 3x archive of the titans the best? or only when it's +10 array
Never use CT on single target
@ebon prism simming and checking Herodamage/Boodmallet will give you best answers
Are you guys preferring CT or PB in M+?
What do you think
Then take the 3rd one that you didn't mention
crimson tempest>
really?
no
If you can't decide between pb and CT, then take hidden blade
During tyrannical I like poison bomb during fortified I like CT
Live life on the edge
Also depends on home much trash will be in the dungeon I guess
crimson tempest does incredible damage at even 3 targets
Thanks Garrett
Yeah tru
Hey guys, what do u do on open ? Gar gar rupt or gar rupt gar ? Logs of current best rogue do gar gar rupt but sim say gar rupt gar ?
Just take 3 ss to m+ and afk while topping charts still np
in m+ i live garrote x3, ct, fan, rupture, fan, rupteure, fan rupture then maintain dots
Still op in m+ just not every situation
Single target there are better options to stack
I only really have Scented Blood atm
ss is strong still in m+ cause you can stealth between packs
but 2x ss and 1x scented blood is good too on fort
Should i also use galecallers for m+?
galecallers is a meh from me
I dnt see any pins bout GRG or GGR ? or am i blind ?
ggr for bigger burst Exsang grg for more energy regen faster
Galecallers is dope when you can stand still lol
what are bis trinkets for m+?
Why best rogue on wlogs use ggr with PB so ? i dnt get it
To have longer bleeds so when they use TB they can squeeze more envenoms before having to reapply
Okay, is it better ? sims say GRG x)
honestly probably a pointless difference in terms of dps
For me personally I dont use PB
Yea probably, but u do only 1 envenom with GRG on TB thats true
In a tyranical boss it does like 50k
Rather spec CT and be useful on M+ trash
In raids PB is fine I guess
Also dont find TB worth it right now due to low mastery
when simming talents and stat weights, do i use hectic add cleave option?
I wouldnt because hectic will reduce your dps by a ton
ye TB is pretty low, except when u proc on add pop
i want to run assassination for m+ so i want to figure out my stat weights and optimal talents
i use patchwerk and then 3-10 targets
TB vs Exsang feels the same dps wise single target, but Exsang feels better
@ebon prism I used 3x SS until today now I run 2x SS 1x Scent of Blood talents is cookie cutter except Exsang and CT
Stat weights are a sim your toon but generall haste crit and mastery are all close once you hit 17-20% haste
Anybody jelly?
i have 10% haste cuz i swap with sub lol
no overwhelming power 0/10
In M+ I can do 12-13k ST and 25k aoe
does anyone know if you can set an order for your debuffs on an enemy nameplate using elvui?
3+ use CT
no i mean can u hit 25k aoe on 3 targets? or u need 5+?
5+ can do it easy
3 targets I just cleave and can usually hit 17k due to bleeds and venomous wounds
o/ @gaunt isle
Thats why I like Sang over TB, its useful on trash
good traits? @barren forge
DD
do you ever envenom on aoe?
@drifting stag tough one honestly
i think ill just run 3x SS with lower ilvl armors :/
Experimenting with CT spam in thicker packs
on fortified weeks id prioritize getting up as many ruptures as possible tbh, on tyrannical tho, might just be better going envenom with a good grp @drifting stag
I will use Envenom when something is about to die with Rup on it though for the energy
just leveled my rogue to be my main alt, is it still work picking up a fathoms?
To boost
Nice 380 dagger from M+ cache
cause at like 3-4 targets there comes a time where i CT for damage and it still has plenty of time left on it
so worth?
My CT does about 3k crits on intial use
With a big enough group that is possibly worth it to spam if you have enough bleeds up
kinda feels like poison bomb is better
whats the other trait combo that you mentioned besides 3x SS? you said 2x SS and something?
Yeah worth for sure, some people still use it above 370 trinkets @dire pebble
maybe not for big groups with low health, but for m+ I'm kinda feeling PB > CT
Scent of Blood
and thats supposed to be better than 3x SS?
tyty @gaunt isle
I swapped because I went from 325 to 370 shoulders
no worries
PB sucks for trash though
oh but if ilvls are equal, then 3x SS is still bis for m+?
not really, if the trash isnt spread PB probly does more damage
There is no world boss in arathi today?
@ebon prism If you are Sang 100% yes
If TB probably but not sure
@harsh glacier I can assure you it wont
CT is always #1 on trash for me
ty
yea ct does stupid damage for me too
ct is strong on forified teeming
sucks on tyranical+noteeming - let's be honest here
I still get decent numbers even this week
My thing about PB is it does almost no damage on boss fights
DAMN NICE

i'm so jealous
isnt it the raiding talent?
Wait so last week's world boss dropped 370 this week 355? SLOWCLAP
General rule of thumb is PB for ST
I am looking over my logs for AD 8 and it did 62k dmg
double dose stacks right?
Dont get me wrong its free damage but CT is still useful on higher M+ even without teeming fort
Yes it does
I feel DD is going to be insanely good when we can get enough mastery
just seems that CT uses a GCD and PB doesnt, and Im not seeing a huge difference in damage except on huge packs
https://gyazo.com/1008582b2666bb05ef2f7c444fd6dc16 this is my damage on the 4 target dummies after 30 seconds
For ST PB is better
i have 2 ss on
But over the course of a dungeon I dont see PB making up for it when trash is moving and the boss damage is a small bonus
so 2x DD and 1x raid piece ?
@harsh glacier do you find yourself energy starving with CT?
Yup
@split veldt In raids raid traits are probably bis due to the stacking
you need to fan rupture to get energy coming back
Yeah assumed so
like 1 combo point rpture
I dont get starved unless I cant stealth
the ct rotation flows very smoothly
if there's no point using CT on bosses though it seems like such a wasted talent
especially on tyrannical week
G g g ct rotation?
like PB has value on tash and bosses
so would've thought it would outvalue CT overall
WIll wait for a dread medallion
we tested CT vs PB in 2nd week (tyranical/skittish/bursting)
It's weird that pvp vers trinket sims higher than crit
and in +14's CT felt very very weak
wouldnt 14s be the same as 6s + fort
so idk how high you can push this weak with decent gear but at the time what was considerd high CT felt garbage
Nah
Is fort just 30% hp
ive never seen the rank 1 or the rank 3 rogue use anything but ct
30% hp 20% dmg rihgt?
ct?
"the rank 1 or the rank 3 rogue"
I wouldn't give to much about what a single high player does tbh
At some point even with Tyrannical trash hp will be high enough
why would CT be weak at 14?
Without CT I might as well roll another spec
idk cause my ct does more damage over 30 seconds than posion bomb does over a 5 minute boss fight
Aoe blows without it
On high hp targets just rupture and garrotte do tons of dps
and every high rated rogue takes ct
@drifting stag exactly what I am seeing
my aoe is only bad when targets die too quickly
you dont think i should follow the trends of people better than me
when i cleared SF +15 i was the ranke d 3 rogue and both me and my friend had psn bomb x)
crying in assa rogue
I bet they all use PB this week with tyrannical
I'm 10th rogue in the us and I /roll 3 before every key this week to decide my lvl 100 talent cause they all feel garbage. So I feel you Easy
It just feels like ppl stopped thinking for themself and just blindly follow something if they saw a streamer do it
I honestly think hb is sleeper strong in a lot of keys this week
I dont have time to watch streamers
You can make HB work
Siege in particular it felt good, and depending on how you pull motherlode it seems decent there too
HB -> spam tab rupture?
I get the logic CT aoe PB ST but the numbers dont lie. Over 5min PB does no damage so I feel having an extra push in aoe saves more time
HB and CT have 0 value ST though
PB literally the only one thats good for aoe and st
HB has minimal value but still value
FUCKING KILL ME PLEASE
PB loses value when the tank moves mobs
Had that one last week @devout jolt ;'D
M+ is all about time saved
thank you Ion <3
It just seems like despite the obvious intent of the 2 skills in question, PBs damage is lacking on bosses
And if the tank has to kite at all CTs value goes way up
what do i do with my combo points if i run pb aoe @fallow estuary
You rupture everytarget and use envenom after you did
You rupture and envenom what do you mean
thats a dumb question
So the question becomes does more trash dps reduce clear time enough to offset PB boss damage where it shines the most
i pulled about 19-20k overall dps in the 2nd week with PB
and 16-17k with CT
we tested 4 dungeons 14+ with it
in the 3rd week
I think a lot of people just look at their overall damage
(fortified)
how are you only doing 17k with ct
and teeming
i did about 21k with CT
Its like they only started playing last week and thought "oh boy CT is so strong"
Yea
it is
on fortified and teeming its amazing
teeming sure
but it looses SO much value without those two
heres my strat
you can still take it
it's not much of a lose between PB and CT even this week
but don't treat it like its far superior
J
You can't evaluate the two just looking "oh boy xDD mmy CT did so much more dmg then PB XDD"
Because you invest resources into CT
Well ya that was my point
i know m8
The one thing I dont get
Ct = cps not spent on rupture which = less energy which = less fok which = less poison dmg
Is 14s should have the same trash effect that a lower fort does
The argument is more hp means CT has more value
along with adds
But with even longer Boss fights in which CT will have exactly 0 value - and less trash
it's all about the overall DPS in dungeons
not about just trash dmg
or just boss dmg
The higher you go the more spooky certain mobs become tho, which makes ct just pad dmg in a lot of cases
VS the 4k trash dps I lose every pull
And if CT pulls less numbers in a dungeon
AND gives you less prio dmg in infested
you can't argue that CT is the by far superior talent on tyranical non teeming
its just dumb
anyway - my cats need to go to the doctor
l8ers.
Like let's take motherlode for example. Packs right after first boss. You pull 4 packs there and cc the infest
Ewww he’s a cat person
Isnt that why we are discussing it
Theres like 4 earthshapers that matter and the rest is mine rats that who cares
Do u g g g rupt exs fok fok fok ct? Or g g g ct exs?
All that ct dmg on the rats is better invested in ruptures and envenoms on earthshapers
Even if it's less overall dmg
if there were like 5-10 adds per pull CT might be ok. but thats rarely the case, it feels pretty bad most of the time
I run exang with 3xss in everything as of now
Anyone knows if Laser Matrix only is BiS in raid?
Exangs synergy with ct is meh imo. It's there for energy regen after your first rupture
I have almost 20% I think thats fine
I rarely use Exsang for CT
I run 12% and I think even that is maybe too high in keys
If it happens cool
We agree there then
https://www.wowhead.com/item=158163&ilvl=340
what's the highest possible ilvl ?
Can master poisoner and double dose be a thing?
At some point in raids ST it will be
is this working as intended? 2 stacks with 1 trait?
Anyways the point of me chiming in here was to encourage people to experiment with PB and HB in their keys
Mut should use both because it attacks with 2 weapons
ah makes sense
Because I dont think the 100 talent choice puzzle is fully solved yet
Especially tyrannical weeks
I wouldnt know what to spec for M+ stats wise if haste needs to be lower that 14%
What do you mean?
I prioritize crit and value haste and mastery pretty closely after that
@cold inlet oh and now its not using both
What? Crit is clearly sins bis m+ stat
so im Outlaw and just got into the talk here with the haste. and i was thinking about trying some outlaw on the site. just wanted to hear why you would not go higher then 14% haste?
I'm not saying I wouldn't go higher
some assa´
What do you guys use to Sim for M+ weights?
I'm saying I run 12% rn in keys but often I feel myself wanting more crit
Hectic Add cleave?
Thus maybe my haste being too high
Whats your crit at
@strange python 5 bosses patchwerk 20-40 sec
M+ is so much feelycraft that it's hard for me to give you like a proper answer
I think I sit at 27 or 29%. I'm on phone rn so..
Cheers @barren forge
I guess if mut crits 10% more than mine you get 4 cp more often
I was running like 30% crit and 8% haste at one point, and that did feel off. I swapped a ring out to get my current stats
Like as long as you have enough haste for 100% ep uptime during your ss garrotes
Who cares
I wont lie I hate EP
Such a dumb talent
I use it but maintaining a 4s buff is cancer
You just have to know when to give a shit about it and when not to
Well its an easy way to tell if someone understands the spec or not imo besides it being good
You just run 3x ss in keys and only stress it during big garrotes
Is raidbots even updated? I sim almost 400 dps lower if i change blightborne infusion for Poisoned Wire. Seems off
Poison wire isnt gonna be good
yeh that seems to be the case
So its still just 1 Uldir trait, 1 SS and on DD for optimal output more or less?
Same here. 1 SS, 1 Matrix and 1 Blightborne atm
Got 385 chest with Fan of Blades and ruinous bolt, fuck blizzard
I Sim better with 2 archive then with 1 archive and 1 ss
Just did a +7 Underrot, PB did 3% of my damage overall
Is it wrong or there is some reason?
anyone know how much CT does for their overall generally?
hi guys, does shouded soffocation is still good now? and is it worth it to stack more than one?
Im fairly undergeared too, only around 350 (rog is 5 days old lol)
Currently Assas sims roughly 200 DPS higher for me on Patchwerk sim. Guessing Assas is the way to go atm then, since Assass will be better on any pull apart from 5+ packs for Sub Shuriken combo right?
3xss is still very good in m+. Raid I wouldn't run more than 1 depending on what else you have on other pieces
if u scroll up there was a big conversation about ct vs pb
oh boy here we go again
lol
We just talked about it. Ct is more dmg than pb on your dmg meter
just curious as to anyone has overall logs so I can see what the overall % CT did was
CT will be top 3 for sure
@ruby idol thanks u m8!
i dont even have to run a dungeon to know that
Does more dmg but u use cp for it so u lose other dmgs
Would you still run CT without Exsang?
pretty much do you wanna use cp for envenom or do you want to use cp for ct
Ct exsang synergy is mostly nonexistent. More important to exsang good rupture/garrotes
so PB is a free 3% damage for me, but CT is more active and reduces other skills.. hm
Honestly no priority CT priority Envenom
If you catch a ct with your exsang then great
Also CT would be considerably more reliable
But I want to know if u think I should run double archive or 1 archive and 1 ss even tho it Sim lower
In what content
Raid
Probably the uldir traits since they get bonuses in uldir
Yea only 1 tho
I dont fully trust bloodmallet but it has all the uldir traits like 2-3xs higher than any other trait
Just run what sims best for raid. The only reason ss is hard to sim for m+ is because of how frequent we get restealths which increases the value of ss
I don't know If I look at archive without array stacks it sucks even in bloodmallet
^
Which us where you'll see arguements for ss, in m+
In raid I suspect DD will be the best non uldir trait
I got a 385 SS piece from chest
Yea but i have it only 340
I feel your pain
do you run 3x ss dad?
AZ pieces werent thought through
Ya
is this viable to mm+ without SS ?
kk
is it*
do you still do ok on bosses ?
Uh yes shaylen
@silk jolt that really depends on your daggers tho. They make a big difference on the Sims.
daggers and traits
How do I SIM M+ with Raidbots? Patchwerk - 3 Bosses - 1 Min ? Uldir I just take 1 Boss 5 Minutes
Think im paranoid lmfao just did a normal mythic and my damage was really low even though I just got two 370 daggers lastnight in raid
Just simmed myself this morning, my highest is 1double dose, 1Dagger, and 1*Blightborne infusion
It seemend weird, but then I digged and I noticed there are 3* Overwhelming power for the middle ring
So now the middle ring is getting more important than the outer one ?
Thats large
Not more important
But the differense in ur middle rings are stronger than ur other rings Thats Why it sims more
Nothing special
How do I SIM M+ with Raidbots? Patchwerk - 3 Bosses - 1 Min ? Uldir I just take 1 Boss 5 Minutes. Could you please help me? 😃
Yeah it seemed that stacking Mid ring was more optimal than stacking DD on the outer ring
355 SoB or 340 SS for m+?
Ss
This might change if I finally drop 1 fucking raid azerite armor
@storm lily just do like 5 bosses patchwerk 40 secs
Been cleaning HM every week, not a single archive or laser yet...
@nimble tartan Okay thank you 😃
@hot flume You should clear Uldir, not Highmaul
lol
and i've been having the same problem as well kixal. only azerite pieces ive gotten are from mythic
though i did get a +10SS chest
i wonder if it's gonna be worth replacing a 340 ss helm with a 385 sb helm
@vestal abyss Wish you were right 😢
glhf
Does anyone know what dungeon drops the best dagger
@vestal abyss got so lucky on my feral beginning of the Xpax, but my rogue is crying for some decent items
MOTHER one is the best
Haste Mastery 😮
yeah but I need something I can farm towards @cold meteor do you know which of the dungeon ones I should be going for?
wait its apprently a upgrade 
Tol Dagor one I think
Tol Dagor for sure
Cool
i got a 365 TD dagger but still a shitty 345 from WQ 
im not gonna lie sharpened blades kinda fun to use i like pressin a button
Got a 380 dagger in the chest
Gz
crit versa 
I'll take it of ur hands np
nah thats m+
you simmed ST tho
1 target though
NotLikeThis
I would go for CT, even in Tyrannical
I'd say it depends on your dps friends
^
sometimes you need more ST
Tyra -> easier trash -> bigger pull -> CT
-> get fatty outdpsd by frost mage and fury warrior anyways
where's ur dh
-> get shit on by bosses
PB is like 450 dps on boss
-> spend 2 hours in Temple on Tyr
when you get lucky
I'm not trying to say that you're wrong
its a little lame that our highest tier talents are so underwhelming
CT is better in m+ every week in general
I'm just saying that it depends sometimes
sometimes I get to go full single target when I play on my feral druid
and that's the only time I get to play m+ on that character
I don't think CT is underwhelming at all tbh
having an aoe spender is nice
I personaly still don't understand what ur trying to say with that correction 🤔
I should reroll to DH, has way more fking luck with items 
What are the ideal azerite traits you guys are looking for rn?
@tender walrus https://bloodmallet.com/index.html#rogue_assassination?data_view=azerite_traits&type=trait_stacking&tier=3
Simulation data for everyone. Overview of DPS relevant simulation data for World of Warcraft.
Atm im running double matrix archive, simmed higher for me until yesterday (havent simmed new patch)
Its still okay in some situations afaik
depends mate, the only real answer you'll get it when you 
is*
well maybe I drop mythic daggers on mother today 
Yep just trying to figure out what are the BiS
i think its the raid azerite + 1x dd
I still have a SS trait but thats just cause I don't have 3 dd
or 2xdd
looks like it
does anyone have an idea of if Dread Gladiator's Insignia is any good and where it comprares on the scale on herodamage?
And are u guys still using exsg without ss traits?
@tender walrus TB sims higher for me
!sims
BfA Simulations:
Herodamage: https://www.herodamage.com/rogue/
Bloodmallet: https://bloodmallet.com/index.html
For me too with and without ss traits
hehehe
should i go for 3 SS or is there a better combination? i'm mostly doing m+ and some low rated pvp
3ss if equal ivl to everything else if probably your best bet
tfw downgrading 3 ilvl for sockets
I sim swirl+dd at 340. And 370 pw
3x dd at 340 is lower.
Guess secondary traits matter
mostly ilvl do now
😦 got 385 chest with fan of knives and Ruinous Bolt : (
Its sims bad and its pull everything in dungeon
Do i need 3xDD to weigh up the loss of 3xSS?
I got a 385 belt which wad a downgrade. Haha
Then got my first raid azerite piece from normal. 15 item level 601 dps increase.
Finally out dpsing my sim since the ss balance
surely ss is still more important than dd in the majority of uldir since there are so many fights where u can vanish garrote adds ?
@white moss it will taper off rapidly. I feel it will end up archive dose and something else. The balance has drastically weakened them. And with all the continued changes its not scaling well at all and will continue to taper off during each new raid tier (imo)
idk man
thats at 385 ilvl
id rather have SS seeing as if you add targets it increases value
it's so hard to tell, atm my shroud 370 sims 200 less than my lazer matrix 370 chest but I feel like a lot of fights the shroud will pull ahead, maybe on zul/mythrax/ghuun anyway
hey hey
@white moss it will pull ahead on some fights no doubt. Hence its still king in m+
SB on "cd" as sin?
But by reducing the stacking and finding 385 shroud pieces is tough
It will become more viable to drop them out
@thorny vector sharpened blade? Its not worth running now. How many you got ?
i mean it still sims best for me
if i got chest from uldir, its better to use Archive of the Titans than SS now ? since its my only piece with booth traits.
mainly for m+, but also for normals / herpoic raids soon
@pseudo void archive is VERY good.
@strange python it is good for booth - m+ and uldir ?
@thorny vector use it on cd unless vendetta is coming up in 3-4 seconds.(i believe) or on vanish with MA talent
Uldir
so outside of uldir its totally worth 0 ?
+1
Yes
@fiery cradle you sim 1k above me with 3 more item level. Nice optimisation. What az pieces you running
u actually wanna have 3xSS in m+
its my only piece with SS and Archive :/ uess i need ot step up on farming that champions rep
How much haste do u guys have? Haste is now my worst stat. https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/9m167FXTw17kJtML387BaS
@pseudo void not worth zerom just not good
ok
@strange python that was simmed with 2x archive 1x blightborne
14.3 with 365 😯
@fiery cradle item level pieces?
2x 370 1x 340
3ss =_= whats the fastest route to it ? freehold m0, and rep from champions ?
I have had 1 az piece since raid release. Ans i had to win that on a roll this morning on normal lol
my weekly chest of disappointment gave me disappointment
@pseudo void m0 world tour has a few
im disappointed
@fiery cradle nice. I got a 385 belt that was a downgrade
380 vers/mastery bracers 😃
look at this shit.. im mad..
i mean that was a 355-380 dagger so
@strange python ok, thank you. will have to do it tonight then 😉 was stuck doing freehold +3/+5 and out of 12 or so runs i got a 345 dagger 😦
even on 5-6 targets, archive with 0 stacks sims higher than 2xss 1x blightborne or 1x archive 1x ss 1x blightborne
4-6
thonking
when playing toxic blade talent, do you still just clip EP or do you just try to put as much envenom into the toxic blade window as possible ?
but less then 1 min sim
would also assume you use vanish
which is not really true for m+
ct or pb in high keys this week guys?
i'd go more comp specific
@rustic onyx I think the aime is to have the highest uptime on evenom buff
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/jzNoyVnMyU2pMXW5rGWjx4 Is it worth going master assasin over subterfuge? I mean having 3 possible garrots for aoe is more badass than the buff from master assasin or I am wrong? :x
So use TB just before evenom to be able to pull out two evenoms during TB window
Overall dps is still king, given that you dont wipe
I also read that even if at 5 CB points, just use TB before Evenom to get that buff uptime needed
Im not sure about that tbh
You need 2-3 envenoms per Tb thats all
2 is manageable, 3 during vendetta or when I use mygalecallers'boon
If you pool properly you can get 3 without vendetta
@fiery cradle just to hard for me now to check aoe vs st dps of build in party before runstart, and peoples in even high lfg dont want to talk sometimes ;D
depends on crits too
Than what is more important ? Having hight uptime on EP or pooling for Max evenoms during TB ?
Yeah but if I pool for TB not sure I will be able to maintain EP

Will depend on crit and needs more haste
There is no way i can maintain EP at all times
about 70%
There will be downtimes @vestal abyss obviously
If your bleeds are up and TB is on cd, pool
its called heroic
I dunno i never looked at my EP uptime, just clip EP when you are bursting and keep envenom up when you an
@rustic onyx depends on traits. Ep uptime is 10% flat damage to everything. Bleeds, poisons etc. TB and envenom dont equate to the 10% flat unless your running double dose. At which point envenom uptime may pull ahead. Ideally you will pool before TB and will be able to do both during that window
@vestal abyss only clip ep during burst on BL opener or any other situation that will energy cap you
Else you delay another finisher to keep the longest possible EP uptime
and during TB
are SB nerfs live?
@hot flume i have 99s and 100s for bracket with similar 68-71% ep uptime. It is because we have pooling periods which is built into the sims
@cyan stump should be
Anyone knows if they fixed the garotte bug?
So we pool and then cycle again.
With garotting multiple targets
@grand burrow no and they have no intention to. They have acknowledged it exists.
Obviously you need tp pull to get out the maximum of Envenom during TB
There is no way around it
But have shown no willing actions to address. If they do it will probably be nerfed again
@hot flume exactly. So there will always be a large percent of downtime on ep. As long as when it is up your maximing it. Then its GG
Yeah for sure we agree on that
Still on ravenholdt they say TB on cooldown
In my opinion it's misleading
I'm not saying we should save it
It does not notice that we should pool before using and what for
ook
I mean its kinda obv that you should pool
@vestal abyss yea just pay attention to the CD and manage your energy to ensure max dps during TB
When I read it first tome, I felt like it was a standard combo builder
When I digged more into the spec, passives and TB tooltip I figured out that I should pool before using it

BfA Simulations:
Herodamage: https://www.herodamage.com/rogue/
Bloodmallet: https://bloodmallet.com/index.html
so whats the chart like now for the dps class in bfa after the latest round of nerfs and buffs?
What do you mean
does herodamage actually work for anyone?
it just goes whitescreen for me, maybe its adblock? 🤔
m2
no i had this too, just refresh
I mean each time I refresh I get a .2 flash screen of the actual website
then its whitescreen
yep go for bloodmallet
anyone has an idea of what would be the opener with 231xx21 (Master Assassin) ?
Anyone has a vectis mystic kill video from assa pov?
yah
sec
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JdiJ5Pa4rI dunno how helpful it will be, havnt checked it
Anything is helpful, thanks 👌
would 1x eye of the glory be better than 1x ss now?
There's only one way you'll know for certain: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/gear
Dizen i guess Garrotte , Mut , Mut without SS and Garotte , Garotte , Rupture without SS , But there is really no point in Picking MA rn
gar gar rip with ss*
or mut mut tb envonom garrote
or mut mut tb envonom garrote
Its the actuall Trait-Chart on Icy-Veins legit?
@ripe comet that doesnt seem optimal
should i do nightly or weekly for blood mallet?
@strange python i can't Think off an Opener at all that seems optimal with MA
There is one. Ill get it
But having 50% heut in Double Mut + TB seems more optimal then one extra heut in garrotte
So for raiding one dd achive and ss good?
50% crit
I would vanish before the envenom after the TB
@granite wind yew
Mutilate, pool a bit, TB, vanish envenom, mutilate envenom
Or you can check the apl on the sim
And it will tell you what was used to hit that dps with MA
do I want TB or EXS for M+?
But you can't Pool in an opener
@glacial steppe 3 x ss - exang
@ripe comet why can you not pull in an opener ? You just need to ensure you can envenom mut envenom during the vanish window
i mean you get a literal 3 sec crit buff you have to Spam
I pool between garrotes with ss
I will garrote, rupture wait a second, garrote for max empowered uptime before vendetta mutilate 5 cp rupture exang
When i vanish to re apply i do the same garrote, envenom, wait a moment garrotr on .2, mutilate then rupture once thr exnag rupture expires ( normall 1 or 2 seconds after that mutilate)
@ripe comet yes so make sure you have the energy to do it. If you dont have the energy to git the 2nd envenom its a dps loss
Im not saying get max energy
Just make sure you have the amount needed to envenom, mutilate, envenom
But Why would you Take MA over subterfuge if you play SS and Open with garrotte ?
Somebody asked about MA
Yea so i was saying that was a more optimal opner than what you listed as you said you couldnt think of an optimal one :)
i tried to make an Opener for it which utilies the 3 sec of extra crit
For ss. Its as above, g,r,g, vend, mut, r, exang, mut envenom spamming (4-5 cp) or max ep uptime. Then vanish g, envenom, g, mutilate wait for rupture to fall off and reapply
Needs to be TB vanish envenom mut envenom
For MA opener
MA opener is g,mut,rup, vendetta, vanish, TB, mut, Env
dunno , it makes Sense i guess but it still feels wrong
is eye of the glory really worse than 1x ss
That doesn’t sound right. Why is there that much benefit from crit on TB? It doesn’t do nearly as much damage as an envenom
@hollow cloud
any chnace you know what is the rotation addon on that video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JdiJ5Pa4rI dunno how helpful it will be, havnt checked it
Another C L E A N (completely scuffed) kill. Onto Fetid...
because it boosts the envonom by 30%
Yeah, but you can cast it before vanish
but why loose out on the crit of TB?
Because it doesn’t do as much damage
tb Hits Harder then mut, and you can't Double envenom in 3 sec
yes
You can env mut env though
well technically you got a pretty good Chance to Double crit in mut
for envonom mut envenom
@pseudo void Might be Hekili
@pseudo finch thanks, will take a look. as im using ovale by old memory, and its giving quite dubious recommendations at times
@ripe comet that may be right. As the TB will trigger the 3 seconds to do envenom, mut, envenom
is archive of titans outside of uldir good? cause it takes so long to get 20 stacks...
Does TB hit harder than envenom now?
it's affectively another flask in combat
i get great results with hits opener and it is also the opener that the sim does for MA
ist good if you chainpull in m+
at 20 stacks
I’d like to know the reasoning, but if it’s what the sim is doing I suppose that’s right
in open world archive of titans is crap, in my opinion. in m+ its only good, when you can maintain it at 20 stacks. w

My crit jumps to 80% during MA window so there’s a high likelihood of hitting a 5CP env and a 4CP env after mut
For me anyway. I’m not actually sure why tb would be doing more with the crit is my issue
@remote oak why would you rupture during that window?
How hard does TB hit now days? I thought it hit for a fair bit less than a 4cp envenom
Without ss why we don't double garrote on pulll?
SS-Bug is so annoying...
@round wadi as you dpnt run subterfuge you run MA
Subterfuge-bug i mean.
I don't run ma
@round wadi you tried simming with TB and MA?
May give slightly better results due to no ss.
Yea it Sim like 20 dps more
@round wadi fair enough.
@remote oak mate do me a favour. Can you test something for me
Are you online playing?
It makes no sense for me losing the possibility of garroting in more target
Nah mobile rn
@vestal wren on vanish with MA if you TB during stealth is there enough time to Envenom mut envenom ?
Or do you need to cast TB, then vanish envenom mu envenom
you cast TB after Vanish
TB Before.
😄
sim saiys after
Vendetta, Mut, TB, Vanish, Env, Mut, Env
Given that the first Mut brings you to 4+ cp
3+*
now do i vant SoB at the cost of some st dmg, or nah?
not playing raids really mainly m+ and wanna do arenas in the future
@cedar anchor disturbing pur theory crafting with his/her pretty loot :)
SoB is good in arena
What addon shows the traits like that?
Azurite toolkit
azeritetooltip
*tooltip
@shut robin cheers
do we still want to wait for vanish + vendetta when youre not running a single SS
and you also go mastet assassin
MA opener
so MA runs out after TB mut ENV
2 envenoms within MA is not possible
for me
Does your tb do more damage than a 4CP env?
i dont know
I’m fairly certain mine doesn’t but I’m not at a computer to test.

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.
