Also don't enchant both weapons with the same enchant 😄
It doesnt work like that buddy
oh shit
hmm
Yeah, that seems pretty weird.
isnt TB better than exsang only because of master assasin combined with arathi world boss trinket?
thanks
Grichka, even without those it sims ahead for me.
I'm sure that would exacerbate that though.
But that's for me, everybody setup could put them on a different path.
Also exsang has value based on what boss you are facing.
Simcraft isn't going to account for fetids enrage
With battle pots are you able to get more than 2 in if you drop combat with vanish?
No
ty
@calm grail hey is it wrong to take 2 titans? do they not stack?
That is something you would have to simulate, the archive buff itself stacks.
The passive secondary stats do not
From the reorigination array bonus.
If you have nothing better than you do what you got to do.
Heya what is best trait now? Still Garote ?
The best trait will vary person to person.
@honest field
Take a look at herodamage.com
370 archive gives 240 First stat + 300 secondary stat right now
Try to see what you should aim for ideally.
Thats super good
Yeah running a single uldir trait in the raid is value town.
I think that week 10 we get like 11% haste.
(assuming haste is your top stat)
thats crazy good
For all of this systems many shortcomings, is good they made at least a raid piece worth bringing to raid.
And it comes from the raid avoiding the m+ chest RNG.
You might also want to run your stat weights and see where you can improve in that regard.
Well my biggest DPS jumps once I hit 15500 were some ridiculously lucky traits and some good weapons.
Now you just have to get the right pieces and keep checking every time you get an upgrade.
Still need a galecallers. Only noticeable hole in my gearing.
@hazy pebble Try getting galecaller
tb?
toxic blade
mastery increases envenom damage right?
so much mastery
i think itd be great if u use it with vengence + vanish
I'm fairly new to simmming, is there anyway to check what my dps would be if I swapped out a piece of gear? Or would that require logging out in that different gear and simming again?
Top gear on raidbots
Gearcompare
Or that
@lone junco remind me where you pop Galecallers in a trash pack rotation.
After the CT or the rupture on burn target?
Before Exsanguinate*
I think right before CT so it snapshots the haste
Nothing snapshots except exsang. So the only real rule is always use before exsang
Everything else updates dynamically
Ty Mich
thats not a snapshot thats dynamic updating of bleeds i believe
galecallers updates your bleeds dynamically
except for exsanged bleeds
hence you stand in it when not exsanging
but if exsanged
just use it before
When do u cast exanguine after the open eotation? Is it always right after u have replished both bleeds?
@calm grail in m+ it doesn't matter to me where the haste is dropped dps wise. You get 10sec across the 18s bleed. Obviously before any exsang. But most important thing is movement. I try to wait until an aoe stun. Or feel it out when I think the tank will stop moving .
@dark token oo tell em Froz
is shrouded suff just not worth at all anymoe?
@pallid bluff was that for me?
Yeah ss is still great
Nah not only for m+
Check pins I believe aethys said it’s only behind DD for ST
ok and running Exang for the most part?
For m+ 100% of the time
ok
For st TB/exsang depends on your gear and traits
I think they are really close for most people regardless though
ty a bunch
Tb / ex is less than one percent difference since i sim them
hey , is there any good wa for CT?
I can DM u one
would be gr8
@strange python have a question, does stat gained by buff after applying garrote/rupture applied?
or haste?
I dont understand
340 shrouded sufficationi shoulders or 355 shouldesr off zul?
Yes it does apply
(for m+)
Your bleeds automatically update to do damage based on your stats
SS for m+
The only thing that won’t update is exsang bleeds
when do uldir shoulders passs SS? 370? 385?
Like if you apply let's say garrote without any haste buff, it ticks every 1,7 sec, after popping lets say a galecaller, it will tick every 1,5-1,4 sec
(again, for m+)
If you can't re stealth or trash takes ages to kill
is dead eye spyglass 370 ilvl better then fathoms? Fathoms seems to be shit right now, doing 2-3% of all my total dmg in m+
370 spyglass is probably worse than fathoms for ST
But you can always sim yourself
Wait
Don't alliance get 2nd world boss this week?
at least on EU
which sim settings do folks use for M+ trash? 3 target patchwork, 40 second duration?
does the APL do garrote on each target?
hrm, that puts non-SS 355 above ... slightly: https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sxWatjGwaYzem1tUSTdQy2
Cause it only garrotes 2 tar instead of 3
ah
Which is a huge deal
whereas we should garrote on 3 to open
Ggg >ct>fok to 3+cp>rup>exsang>fok>spread rupture
hm ok cool
Wait we only fok to 3cp +?
Rupture damage doesn’t scale off of cp just duration
I'm guessing in low keys they don't survive a full 24sec ruptuer#
Makes sense
If you spam fok you are gonna energy starve yourself
on 2 targets, do we fok or mut
Are you just tab garroting?
But mut feels better sometimes and does better prio damage
I normally just target casters for the silence and then Whatever the priority is after that
hey guys, can somebody help me?
I'm having some problems with understand how to combine my traits to the best possible way. I see some people put 2 raid traits into their set, while I've been told you should have 1 raid and 2 different ones
guys, as an sin rogue and shadow priest, am i supposed to focus on keeping garrote and rupture on all the enemies or atleast 2 people or should i just focus the priority target and train them?
atm I can put 2 archives and 1 sharpened knife, or 1 archive, 1 SS and 1 sharpened knife
hello, im trying to make a weakaura that shows basicly desaturated poisosn bomb icon when its not procced; and the glowing/not desaturated version when it procced. Can anyone help me ?
Try the wa discord
i did noone cares 😦
You would need to read the combat log to do it though
am I doign something wrong or laser matrix pull literally EVERYTHING
playing motherload right now and i literally pull so much stuff with it
YUP it breaks cc too

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.
Still bugged residentsleeper
Why would you care about pb procs. You don't change rotation, do you
When is bfa going live?
What’s dogshit is the rng in what route you get in waycrest
and they last rly long
I mean cmon
like this SS bug was in beta already
We're nearly 2 months into BFA
And a bug with the most popular assassination trait still isnt fixed
I mean it’s probably an underlying systems issue that if they fuck with could break the whole game
Dude
The game is over 10 years old
Thats why u test it
There are 100s if different peoples code
Its not like they test this shit on live servers
ur just toxic and non-understanding @strange python
game development isnt just OH WE HAVE BUG
CHANGE 1 LINE ITS FIXED YAY
They get paid millions of dollars
So of course I expect them them to fix this??

u rly dont understand
a single word I said
dont you
lets take for example riot games
they earn a lot of money
and the game still get bugs
OMG WHY DONT THEY FIX IT?
because its something bigger than just small line issue maybe?
Well you really don't know if the SS bug is big or not
Because we never had a response
So stop assuming
They probably tries fixing it and haven't found a way to do it yet and see it as low priority
Cos we can still play with the bug
lets use our brain @strange python cuz I see u struggle with that
they have A LOT of response about this bug
Nonetheless its still a bug
Ofc we can still play with the bug but its very punishing if you fuck it up
Well it shouldn't be like that should it
A bug forcing people to reroll to other specs
lol
Probably a dumb question, but can you apply garrotes out of stealth, then vanish apply an empowered garrote and have the opposite effect?
Negative.
drats
It would just overwrite the one you had on.
Does anyone know how the opener with Master Assassin is?
Its a normal opener
Check the app.
Apl*
Has you use vendetta then vanish then TB.
Then you just continue on normally

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.
all this does u just use normal garrote after the empowered one runs out of time completly
not stack it over
OMG THIS BUG MAKES SPEC UNPLAYABLE
is that michee?
kek
I got to stop that conversation cuz I become toxic
nvm
what do you mean
Sup guys
sup shim
@inland verge that is how it works
Why are you mad bro
Whoever said no was wrong
im changing the laser matrix trait to poisoned wire since it tilts me on dungs
whos mad michee
hmm?
Listen
This bug makes a difference on tyrannical with 4-5 mob packs
No? It doesnt?
You can't apply garrote to last 2 targets
400dps?
its 1 mob with the debuff thingy
literally one mob
Im playing withh 2 SS traits in M+
summing it up its 662 dmg more on garrote
lets give it a subterfuge buff
its aroudn 1.1k dmg more
on 1 TARGET
still a dps loss in the long shot
so if u lose 1.1k on one target
but 4 other mobs have the buff
its not
lol
longer fight - smaller dps loss
simple math, u overcap 1 garrote if u wanna keep garrote on cd
Any of you guys using Crimson Tempest in M+ ? I'm seeing it pop up in logs.
Yeah CT is pretty good on m+
@strange python you should use it in M+
maybe if u play like +2/+3 then nah since ur party members can nuke them down
but above definitly use it
yes i'm going to give it a shot
but how does that work on tyrannical bosses ?
You dont use it on bosses
hmm
you dont use it on ST until you HAVE to get away from boss for certain amount of time
guess it's still usefull on boss with adds tho ?
when he starts spinning u can use CT and move away
but in normal fight when u just sit on boss its useless
right
envenom will do more overall dmg
if you have everything dotted properly then you do
if not then keep re-applying dots
don't you just use CT as your finisher most of the time ? between refreshing rupture etc..
it rly depends
Ct hit is not huge. Times mob count. Has to exceed the Env.
if u have like 3 mobs then u still use envenom from time to time since u can keep all dots up all the time and still have small opening window for free opener then u use envenom
yeah
pb ct on zekvoz?
kill vs padding
🤔
i think ct 
CT for parse
🙂
all that matters
Rupture, refresh with 7.2 seconds remaining at 5 combo points, or 6 seconds remaining at 4 combo points
pretty sure it's in the guide
is SS traits really better than anything for MM+ ?
Yes
3ss is sick
340ss beats out everything 370 in my experience
ok then
Even with 2 you pull stupid numbers
yeah it's a very nice trait even after 40% nerf 😉
Eh our numbers are good they aren’t the best anymore but they are really good
dh :>
Well if we Class compare there's always something better, DH keeps getting buffed :p
Nah they got a big nerf recently
For their aoe
Revolving blades lost like 35% I think
ss is still good after nerfs?
Yes
hey guys
according to this guide im supposed to
Cheap Shot> Garrote> Mutilate> Kidney Shot> Vendetta> Toxic Blade> Mutilate until 5 combo points> Rupture> Mutilate until 5 combo points> Envenom
as an opener in pvp
i'm using system shock pvp talent
what i noticed is that my garrote tends to fall off
before i envenom at 5 combo points
so doesnt that negate the pvp talent from procing
That has to be one of the most scuffed openers i have ever seen
That too that’s bunk as hell
Check some pshero, pikaboo and whaaz videos on youtube
Soft opener would be not burning cds also ask in the pvp channel they will know better
You'll clear up most of your questions
I've been on vacation, any big updates this past week I should look into?
i use it with vendeta / tb at 4/5cb to evenom estro evenom
anything i missed or to change? I also have 370 chest with SS trait, but it sims like 500 less dps but feels like im gaining more dps in raids. - https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/e8as1NEWuMtMcPEEdm8hJp
ah thanks for info
how do u open wiht master assa ?
just run a sim and read the apl sample sequence
lol k how do i do that ? XD
I assume that if you have 0 ss. it would g m r.
that's what i do but I haven't checked, ima look up now

Hello fellow backstabbers!
Hello everyone, i'm new to this discord and I was wondering if I could get some help ?
We don't have backstab...

that is specifically with 1ss. @strange python hince the double garrotes
What's interesting is it is using R>G>G instead of G>R>G
Ahhhhh
thats why you gotta run a sim for wonky setups
Why do I do little dmg in raid abut not in m+ ?
@strange python ? Maybe help me instead of insulting?
Wait what
wow calm down with the insults mate
Where did I insult you
@strange python i just imported Draenor - Ashiné. thats what was being used. I havent tried mark in weeks for ST raid tho
ill do that now for lols.
tfw Ion is an insult now... 
@strange python Jeez Michee! So ugly to people!
he is that bad of a director 😔
😦
Wait Noobe, are you using MFD for m+?
whats wrong with mfd?
insulted because you didnt automagically read his mind and provide an instantaneous solution to whatever unvoiced problem existed
I havent used it yet. but ran that sim. for that guy, and he got 16.5k. st. really big imo
385 x3
laser, archive, 1 ss.
gee gee
mark tb
385 fuckin hell
Yeah but I'm running double 385 and a 370 with similar results.
Wonder of MFD would sim higher
tfw still running 2 340s
Also have five itemlevels lower
ho hi mark
can someone check it and see whats the problem, cuz I can't find it since i'm not that experienced h ave tried different stuff but still
no buffs
I need to compare that with Marked for Death
What?
if you sim without any buffs, then you see ur true dmg
I'm just trying to see if Mark sims better.
well no that's irelevent ,what matters is how your gear / opti works in raid environement
you min / max for raids, not for world quests 😄
so i am wrong or what do yo umean? 😃
yes, sim with full buffs
yeah, you need to sim with full raid buffs, pots and all
to closer simulate the actual raid environment
Ideally you should have buffs most of the times, at least consumables
yeah, i just thought that you wanted to sim yourself without any kind of consumables to see your true base dmg
cuz the base dmg is the one you trying to increase
which will inturn increase ur outdps when u're buffed
but i guess i was wrong
That is my equipment yes
not up by much though
Oh no thats not my equipment
thats mine
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/hWXeJuSJx1ouW5ZEhw27Je now I did with buffs
Archive only works in raid i think so SS would suppoesly sim more outside i think
Array buff is only in Uldir
It’s low
Yeah that's the problem, why is that so do you think?
Its a 2.5% damage increase more or less
So around 350 dps
yeah
Maybe less
But then it's still low
low compared to?
that seems pretty standard for around 360
You see
You have over 1k more sim than me and ii'm 358 ilvl
14.1 at 356
how good is your mog? maybe that would help
l o l
Whats mog?
Get better trinkets
14.7 is pretty damn high for that ilvl
nvm its not going
Like fathoms and gale callers boon
Also note that item levels don't take into account sockets.
tru. sockets are good
And 10 Ivl higher weapon is a huge dps increase that doesn’t reflect well
If I drop the 5 sockets I have I lose like...
7 sockets
k 21dps diff between 1arch 2ss. and 2 arch.1dd. and completely different talent setups.
Mizerok dafuq man we're the same ilvl and you have over 2k more sim
Is there a way i can show you my equipment?
I was gonna comment that I have few mastery pieces but that's not true.
I’m on mobile
because i have SS
Ask noobe I bet he can help
I am running DD/BloodRite/Archive atm.
ilvl is a awful guideline considering how shitty the azerite system is bro
How do I only sim 15.1 on WoWprogress https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fzT5NBWvr6u8vvxpAMjyBN
don't worry too much about it, just keep farming those damn azerite pieces
Wowprog has awful sims
You've a lot of options for Azerite if you've been doing Mythic tours and clearing raid > _>
I know bro, but if you're looking at the dmg output its so big difference between me and mizerok
And sockets like people have said. Sockets are worth like 10-20 ilvl depending on the piece
340dps in my case, for sockets that is.
Did we get stealth nerfed? Was simming 15.4 on wowprogress now I sim 15.1
And I changed nothing
yeah its probably because Mizerok has better azerite pieces/trinkets/weapons
Makes sense why haven’t they fixed it after all these years lmao
at 358, i would be around 14.2k ish.
ilvl is not as relevant
I sim 14,8k and wowprog shows 13,8
Also going from 340 SS/Heed to 370 Bloodrite/Gutripper was like... 300 > _>
https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/character/draenor/Ayeno the trait problem is my chest only
Mizerok can u link ur armory?
You're not going SS ?
For Raids? Why would I sabotage myself?
^
Ss isn’t bad for raids
Right it's just worse than other options.
Depends
and specifically good on fights where respeccing with middling spec knowledge would lead to better DPS.
So youre saying the problem with my dmg being low in raids are my SS traits?
I do not know the DPS difference between SUB/SS and MA/notSS.
What is the best way to deal with infested?
Kill the little fuckers.
I mean like time-efficient.
Focus down, or sap the target with infested
and kill the others
So its not noteworthy, i can ignore it?
Yeah there's nothing broken there or anything.
gimme gimme
That out of context makes no sense.
ENV casts on Mother.
I feel as sin i lose so much dmg when infested comes up. No point in multi-dotting. so how do you guys deal with it while maximizing your damage?
If you are playing MFD then probably ENV > MFD > ENV'ing the little nerd.
Still multidot some stuff for energy and to have dots up when ingested dies
I currently run 1 SS on raids because I dropped a 370 and I don't have any other pieces to swap it 😩
Depends on whether your group kills them fast or not.
And just pump env into the infested
If you can play Prey on the Weak then maybe CS them?
No iron wire is better
Yeah IW is, much too strong.
Just let your other dps pump pure st into so you can prepare for the aoe
Get a couple rup rolling the just env the infested
wait u play IW and not internal bleeding? jumping back into discussion just now
Going to try that next time Vel, thanks!
Yeah IW for longer silence is and dmg reduction on the mobs
i think internal bleeding is the worst of the 3 picks though. Seems really undertuned?
Yeah, I use it when I do BG's and it feels really nice.
The damage it brings is negligible for pve
May be decent in tol dagor. End up being the one stunning the riot shield mobs the whole time.
PotW (10% dmg increase for the whole group) would still be stronger I think, but as Vel is saying; I think Iron Wire is outscaling both for m+.
Surprised blizzard never put their dirty hands in IW considering how strong it is compared to every other talent in that row
If my math is correct (probably not) but then the group need to have less than 20k collective dps for internal bleeding to outscale PotW.
Is it ever possible to get 3 cheap shots in subterfuge window. I get the one from stealth, then 2 more and the last one is always a tiny split second late.
Iron Wire was nerfed twice already.
I don’t even know if it’s possible to get a 3rd gcd in subterfuge. Haste still drops then gcd right?
haste doesn't change gcd, if that's what you're asking.
Haste cannot drop a GCD past 1 second.
Yeah don’t think it’s possible then
👍
after about 48M iterations. this still beats anything else i have. but as crit slides up, haste will shoot back to the top.
so ill just play whatever is cheapest to swap between M+ and Raid.
Sooo. I got an outlaw weap finally and my outlaw traits are way better than my sin traits. Was nice knowing you guys
DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON THE WAY OUT
🐍
TRAITOR
We snek lord now
Don’t worry you guys. It evens out I’m a traitor from subtlety who has better traits for sin.
lol
I am a slave to my sims
Whomp whomp
Dw. Gonna roll m mother again, get dagger n come back 😄
lol
i got double 370 claws from h ghuun, just wanted the chest ç_ç
I was kinda surprised to see assassination above sub overall in Uldir tho. It seems like there are a lot of fights where sub would succeed but I guess maybe it’s more bursty than I thought.
Yea just corrected it
is it best to stack quick navigation on both weapons or do 1 deadly and 1 quick?
k thx
My phone hates me.
is anybody using assa rogue for wound poison healing debuffs during adds on mythic fetid
When is a good time to activate galecallers boon? Right after comming out of stealth?
Considering you want to kill then Before they start to heal it seems bad to go wound
whats our haste breakpoint?
So yesteday I saw a rogue in M+ with 3x Shrouded Suffocation traits. Does it make any sense?
sim-wise it is kinda low
...
3x SS is the best traits you could have for m+
huh, really?
Yes
Why would it be bad in a multi target quick burst situation?
Simming m+ is even more unreliable than normal sims are. Not to mention the APL doesn’t use SS correctly
I guess I need to build an M+ gear set then
Yep
Well m+ stats are completely different than raid stats anyway
tricked by sims
what's an ideal raid set up for Assa?
Tricked by not reading.
is SS even worth going, I used to stack it but im not sure anymore
again
Woah, scrolling up or checking the pins is HARD
In Uldir you want at least 1 or laser matrix and archive
It took 30,000 messages but I've stopped answering un-interesting questions O _O
Lol.
Quick question: if I'm running CT, should I use it when there are 2 targets? Hard to judge how much damage the poison application chance on envenom is worth.
I guess double dose, laser matrix, and ss is fine
CT 3+

How many mythrax kills will it take to drop the Laser matrix head? Will it be nerfed before I get it?
Ty. Didn't see that in guide and wasnt showing up in sims.
Indeed the guide doesn't answer my question
I personally enjoy when people get upset when you are rude or don’t answer the question that’s in the pins and had been asked 1 billion times in the past week
What the guide doesn't say is whether or not you spam CT ever.
"Cleave" is a very ambiguous term
is it ?
wait what
What is your assumption that "Cleave" is?
it doesn't answer the question of CT on 2 or 3 targets
What do you consider AOE and Cleave to be?
btw the answer doesn't matter because you maintain CT on 2 targets and spam on more targets.
Don't bother answering.
It's just ironic you're spamming the guide and acting like all the answers are there when it isn't. It's like maybe you need to read the guide?
You def don’t spam on 3 targets
🔥
MORE MORE MORE
There's a 3T breakpoint but it usually takes more targets to make it obvious.
oh you maintain CT on 2 targets? I never do that, I learned something today
hahaha
The guide may say it but I’ve seen a lot of the top sin guys not use it
I'm running bomb this week for Tyranical anyways
and while that doesn't mean they are right, either works IMO. Doing 1 or the other probably isn't going to make you awful.
Just don't CT on single-target O _O
Otherwise I will find you, and you will get every boss mechanic for the rest of the dungeon.
Anyone read any good books lately?
Yeah.
SIN BFA GUIDE HERE--> http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/ <-- SIN GUIDE HERE
:3
I'm finishing the Mistborn series actually.
👌
you don’t spam ct on 3+ targets
Where's the breakpoint for CT targets then?
I was asking that but instead got snarky answers to read guide
It’s high
Like 8?
Yeah.
I would say it’s situational. but saying you spam it on 3+ targets is a blanket statement
Most people look for blanket statements, so knowing an actual number for something like that is good enough for them.
But it’s probably better to get ruptures and then env the priority
I don't usually worry about it too much, I just look at the numbers. The initial hit on CT does around 3k each, one envenom does average 18k. How many targets do I need to make CT > Env? 🤔 thats what I do.
In most cases except on extremely high number of enemies
Yeah that's fine.
Hey guys. How do you set your sim up when you sim for m+ trash packs optimizations? Not sure what to set it to.
@civic palm that doesn’t make it not false information though. and then spamming the guide like it was an obvious answer doesn’t help either
Also depends on whether or not you have any Scents, as that skews Rupture further ahead of CT.
Also@depends on group comp. I play with a Dh and an spriest the small shit dies so fast that I get more damage by ruptureing stuff
but also if you have Twist the Knife your Env is higher isnt it? So it makes it harder to know
Easier to maintain at least.
so what you need to do when you have that question is think of that yourself, like a functioning human being
evening all 😃 no idea what i'm doing with my assassination rogue, just got to 120 but haven't really played in 8 years, bit lost at the minute haha
👋
The guide at the top of the Discord is a good place to start, more specific questions can be fielded otherwise.
We have transmogs now, this is the most important change in 8 years.
do that even before you read the guide.
Tru
ct or pb for G huun?
Running orbs or not?
on last one
no idea what a transmog is haha, i've got the guide open, will work my way through it as my rotation sucks at the minute
Are there issues with the eyes?
aka if you need more AoE CT might work fine, but you are going to do less during the burn phase.
Transmog is the single most important thing in this game and the true end game.
ty
ah just had a google, it's essentially where children go to play dress up by the looks of it 😉
Yes, thats because uglies do bad dps, its known.
IT IS THE HEIGHT OF PROGRESSION AND THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS
slams fist on glass desk
O_O
Pardon?
CT on zul??
Do you need to help killing the adds?
IIRC it just uses the Raid Gear as a baseline for the 385 default gear
It's not intended to be "perfect" in any way.
oh, okay
Yeah exactly, if the adds are handled then just tunnel.
Cleave on the casters and crusher if need be.
Im still sad that the guide doesnt show MA rotation
That's gonna be kinda varied, yaknow?
What is the Master Assasin opener again?
Is that in the guide?
hmmm
Nope, probably should be, dorks.
Anyway.
like this.
This is the opener the APL does/did last I checked.
Didnt we vanish rupture in Legion?
With Nightstalker sure.
oh ya
TB is still a lot of DMG, and I think the idea behind that opener is to get 2 chances on the MUTs for get 2 ENVs.
double dose scales off crit well right? if both parts of mut strike it hits
What is opener with SS

Garrote Rupture Garrote Rupture ?
@alpine cave it’s in the guide in the pins
what
I think the guide is correct
!wa
Assassination WA's for BFA:

want my philosophical views on the SS meta?
yeah
I don't like it.
1 ss is really good
I would like SS if it wasn't bugged forever
Why rogue DPS style is always weird?
and made me sit on my 4th Garrote questioning the professionalism of Blizzard
You probably wouldn't 4th Garrote anyway.
Other Lock shites and mageshites are all other class are ok with both AOE and single target.
O _O
We're very ok on aoe sir.
Antorus Assassination was an aberration
but can burst more than DH metamophorsis
Does someone got a tip how to manage energy reg like multilate only above 50 energy or so
The only problem with giving people nice things is that they bitch and moan when the expansion comes around and you lose your broken toys.
don't spam your mutilate then
raidbots down?
you can wait envenom procs 😛
Zul heroic... assassination or sub?
I suck at Sub so I always go Sin.
assassination with Crimson Tempest 😛
gross. why
for heroic zul, sub unless your team is going to dumpster the crawgs as soon as they span
Speaking of CT, for zekvoz M do you go with PB or CT?
@hybrid harness what talents do you run DS / ST?
and that beats sub ae?
Zul is 2 phases
save vanish on opener
I play Outlaw for Zek.
1st phase is good as sub and 2nd phase is good as assassination 😛
I have been going for PB so far in zekvoz. FoK > Rupt > Fok > rupt > Fok >rupt > Fok > envenoms
will try it now with CT
just tunnel the boss and fok fok CT
deeper strat, dark shadows, and master of shadows for killing the boss or secret techniques for padding
😛
3x van on 3 warriors, hm... or 1 on zek, 1 on the void weaver and 1 on a war
good idea
will try it with CT
you need to change target at weaver
(van garrote I mean)
on mythic wars + weavers come at once. We cc 2 weavers and AoE down wars + weaver.
unless your team is super good 😛
when your tank moves near weaver
that's exceptional
Kill them
Depends on how your raid deals with them.
do you CT even in 1 target?
Well ofcs
Sin burst is shit
AoE burst*
If those adds die too fast
Just use FoK and keep attacking boss
I just wanted to make sure i make the most out of it
Else, spec into CT and instead of using Envenom, use CT for those few seconds
You can spam it at 4+ targets
have you guys gone high mastery or haste this week?
What’s the fascination with heavy mastery lately?
@strange python easily simmed with increasing the treshold timing. I doubt it is 4t. That's very low.
Currently Ct <2. Is base.
Try Refresh Ct<5
or Ct < 9
In order to do that, you might drop min ruptures to >=2cp
You could even take the use condition. Of env out completely.
best opener for zul heroic with dark shadow and shuriken tornado?
Even napkin math of 3K per Ct hit. Times mob count Is lower than avg env.
Simmed 4 targets with CT
And envenon is replaced with CT
Lets see with 3 🤔
Well on 3 its not, but thats maybe because my crit is low
4t patchwerk. With or without lust?
I think it was without
Lemme double check
Welp, was with Lust, without its completely different
Advanced will use lust unless you disable it.
And raid buffs etc.
I'm all for refreshing early in m+. A bit early or a lot early. But I haven't seen anything that says back to back spam windows are a good idea. Except maybe if you insist on killing the snake ball trash.
I still use 3 for M+
what if you have a 370 laser matrix chest
maybe just 2 ss?
and what a bout single target
ST you can sim
warcraft logs like every rogue using at least one SS
3ss for m+ still my best. For cleave or priority damage.
Laser isn’t nearly as good outside of raid
i also have 370 double dose chest
