#

Uve got no ss anyways

#

Also don't enchant both weapons with the same enchant 😄

#

It doesnt work like that buddy

hazy pebble
#

oh shit

calm grail
#

I've actually been told to go MA for my setup.

#

Without SS

#

But I keep forgetting to

hazy pebble
#

hmm

strange python
#

question is

#

Why are u at 14,8k

#

wtf

calm grail
#

Yeah, that seems pretty weird.

strange python
#

Im 14,8k at 362

wild kindle
#

isnt TB better than exsang only because of master assasin combined with arathi world boss trinket?

calm grail
#

You could probably ditch all of those Elemental whirls

#

Take gutripper on shoulders.

hazy pebble
#

thanks

calm grail
#

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

sand sonnet
#

With battle pots are you able to get more than 2 in if you drop combat with vanish?

calm grail
#

No

sand sonnet

hazy pebble
#

@calm grail hey is it wrong to take 2 titans? do they not stack?

calm grail
#

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.

honest field
#

Heya what is best trait now? Still Garote ?

strange python
#

You generally take at least 1 uldir trait to Uldir

#

Because of the array

calm grail
#

The best trait will vary person to person.

#

@honest field

strange python
#

370 archive gives 240 First stat + 300 secondary stat right now

calm grail
#

Try to see what you should aim for ideally.

strange python
#

Thats super good

calm grail
#

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)

strange python
#

thats crazy good

calm grail
#

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.

hazy pebble
#

@calm grail @strange python thanks

#

better i guess?

strange python
#

Well thats nearly 300 dps

#

So yeah

calm grail
#

You might also want to run your stat weights and see where you can improve in that regard.

strange python
#

He did

calm grail
#

Ahh.

#

Derp

#

My bad.

strange python
#

But only 15k

#

Hmmm

calm grail
#

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.

strange python
#

@hazy pebble Try getting galecaller

calm grail
#

I'm at 16500 without GCs

#

Wonder what getting one could do for me.

hazy pebble
#

im going to storm right now

#

lul..

#

my 5th run atm

strange python
#

Interesting

#

Herodamage still says that Sharpened blades is still good for tb

hazy pebble
#

tb?

strange python
#

toxic blade

hazy pebble
#

i hate SB

#

its not rogue like

silk jolt
#

dw guys it could be worse

#

0 trinket drops last 3 weeks

small island
#

mastery increases envenom damage right?

hazy pebble
#

so much mastery

calm grail
#

Hmm, in almost every situation GC sims behind my 370 Glad trinket.

#

Weird.

hazy pebble
#

i think itd be great if u use it with vengence + vanish

paper aspen
#

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?

strange python
#

Top gear on raidbots

calm grail
#

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*

strange python
#

I think right before CT so it snapshots the haste

calm grail
#

Ggg CT Rupture GC Exsanguinate?

#

Ahhh ok

pallid bluff
#

Nothing snapshots except exsang. So the only real rule is always use before exsang

#

Everything else updates dynamically

strange python
#

excuse me?

calm grail
#

Ty Mich

dark token
#

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

dapper moat
#

When do u cast exanguine after the open eotation? Is it always right after u have replished both bleeds?

lone junco
#

@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 .

gentle belfry
#

@dark token oo tell em Froz

gilded arrow
#

is shrouded suff just not worth at all anymoe?

pallid bluff
#

It is still bis for m+

#

And decent for ST

gilded arrow
#

@pallid bluff was that for me?

pallid bluff
#

Yeah ss is still great

gilded arrow
#

ok but only for m+

#

perfect

#

ty

strange python
#

Nah not only for m+

pallid bluff
#

Check pins I believe aethys said it’s only behind DD for ST

gilded arrow
#

ok and running Exang for the most part?

pallid bluff
#

For m+ 100% of the time

gilded arrow
#

ok

pallid bluff
#

For st TB/exsang depends on your gear and traits

#

I think they are really close for most people regardless though

gilded arrow
#

ty a bunch

cyan galleon
#

Tb / ex is less than one percent difference since i sim them

sick vine
#

hey , is there any good wa for CT?

strong dome
#

whats our opener with MA?

#

same as always?

strange python
#

Sim yourself and check the APL

#

Or just go off the rotation on ravenholdt site

sick vine
#

anyone got WA for ct?

#

cant find any good

strange python
#

I can DM u one

sick vine
#

would be gr8

hazy pebble
#

@strange python have a question, does stat gained by buff after applying garrote/rupture applied?

#

or haste?

strange python
#

I dont understand

unborn rampart
#

340 shrouded sufficationi shoulders or 355 shouldesr off zul?

pallid bluff
#

Yes it does apply

unborn rampart
#

(for m+)

pallid bluff
#

Your bleeds automatically update to do damage based on your stats

wet yew
#

SS for m+

pallid bluff
#

The only thing that won’t update is exsang bleeds

unborn rampart
#

when do uldir shoulders passs SS? 370? 385?

strange python
#

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

unborn rampart
#

(again, for m+)

pallid bluff
#

385 MAYBE on high keys

#

And I’m talking like 14+s on fortified

wet yew
#

If you can't re stealth or trash takes ages to kill

jovial swallow
#

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+

pallid bluff
#

For m+ overall it would probably be better

#

For st would probably be close

strange python
#

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

unborn rampart
#

which sim settings do folks use for M+ trash? 3 target patchwork, 40 second duration?

#

does the APL do garrote on each target?

pallid bluff
#

It does 2 tar instead of 3

#

4-6 tar 40-80 sec patchwork

#

No lust

unborn rampart
pallid bluff
#

Cause it only garrotes 2 tar instead of 3

unborn rampart
#

ah

pallid bluff
#

Which is a huge deal

unborn rampart
#

whereas we should garrote on 3 to open

candid jasper
#

what rotation are people using to garrote 3 open?

#

since I can't get 37k dps!

pallid bluff
#

Ggg >ct>fok to 3+cp>rup>exsang>fok>spread rupture

candid jasper
#

hm ok cool

vapid delta
#

Wait we only fok to 3cp +?

pallid bluff
#

Rupture damage doesn’t scale off of cp just duration

candid jasper
#

I'm guessing in low keys they don't survive a full 24sec ruptuer#

vapid delta
#

Makes sense

pallid bluff
#

If you spam fok you are gonna energy starve yourself

unborn rampart
#

on 2 targets, do we fok or mut

pallid bluff
#

And yeah that’s true In low keys but I’m talking about 12+

#

Apl says fok

candid jasper
#

Are you just tab garroting?

pallid bluff
#

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

full pagoda
#

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

steel flint
#

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?

full pagoda
#

atm I can put 2 archives and 1 sharpened knife, or 1 archive, 1 SS and 1 sharpened knife

brittle matrix
#

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 ?

pallid bluff
#

Try the wa discord

brittle matrix
#

i did noone cares 😦

pallid bluff
#

You would need to read the combat log to do it though

pallid hound
#

am I doign something wrong or laser matrix pull literally EVERYTHING

#

playing motherload right now and i literally pull so much stuff with it

pallid bluff

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.

fresh bough
#

Still bugged residentsleeper

pallid hound
#

Im actually thinking about equipping 15 ilvl worse helmet

#

but with double dose

lone junco
#

Why would you care about pb procs. You don't change rotation, do you

pallid hound
#

instead of freaking laser matrix

#

or will go with poisoned wire on my helmet

broken fiber
#

When is bfa going live?

pallid hound
#

u mean, non-beta?

#

probably never

strange python
#

This xpac is horrible so far

#

Azerite trait system is dogshit

pallid hound
#

I mean

#

i enjoy the xpac a lot tbh

#

but all the bugs are just weird

pallid bluff
#

What’s dogshit is the rng in what route you get in waycrest

pallid hound
#

and they last rly long

strange python
#

I mean cmon

pallid hound
#

like this SS bug was in beta already

strange python
#

We're nearly 2 months into BFA

#

And a bug with the most popular assassination trait still isnt fixed

pallid bluff
#

I mean it’s probably an underlying systems issue that if they fuck with could break the whole game

strange python
#

Dude

pallid bluff
#

The game is over 10 years old

strange python
#

Thats why u test it

pallid bluff
#

There are 100s if different peoples code

strange python
#

Its not like they test this shit on live servers

pallid hound
#

ur just toxic and non-understanding @strange python

#

game development isnt just OH WE HAVE BUG

#

CHANGE 1 LINE ITS FIXED YAY

strange python
#

They get paid millions of dollars

#

So of course I expect them them to fix this??

pallid hound
#

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?

strange python
#

Well you really don't know if the SS bug is big or not

#

Because we never had a response

#

So stop assuming

fresh bough
#

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

pallid hound
#

lets use our brain @strange python cuz I see u struggle with that

#

they have A LOT of response about this bug

strange python
#

Nonetheless its still a bug

pallid hound
#

and its not fixed yet

#

so make a guess

#

IS IT BIG

#

OR NOT

broken fiber
#

Ofc we can still play with the bug but its very punishing if you fuck it up

pallid hound
#

if its so annoying thhen play another spec michee thats it

#

simple as that

strange python
#

Well it shouldn't be like that should it

#

A bug forcing people to reroll to other specs

pallid hound
#

its not forcing ppl to reroll

#

I just adapted to the bug

#

and play with that

pallid bluff
#

^

#

And if I fuck up I say oh shit oops and move one

broken fiber
#

lol

strange python
#

Wouldn't be a thing if there was no bug

#

🤷

inland verge
#

Probably a dumb question, but can you apply garrotes out of stealth, then vanish apply an empowered garrote and have the opposite effect?

calm grail
#

Negative.

inland verge
#

drats

calm grail
#

It would just overwrite the one you had on.

buoyant kraken
#

Does anyone know how the opener with Master Assassin is?

strange python
#

Its a normal opener

calm grail
#

Check the app.

#

Apl*

#

Has you use vendetta then vanish then TB.

#

Then you just continue on normally

pallid hound
#

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

hollow stone

But how am i sposta not be energy starved withoot a 4th garrote??

pallid hound
#

what do you mean

strange python
#

Sup guys

pallid hound
#

sup shim

pallid bluff
#

@inland verge that is how it works

strange python
#

Why are you mad bro

pallid bluff
#

Whoever said no was wrong

pallid hound
#

im changing the laser matrix trait to poisoned wire since it tilts me on dungs

#

whos mad michee

strange python
#

You are

#

You even admitted it

pallid hound
#

hmm?

strange python
#

Listen

pallid hound
#

where

#

where I admitted that ;d

strange python
#

This bug makes a difference on tyrannical with 4-5 mob packs

pallid bluff
#

No? It doesnt?

pallid hound
#

🤔

#

how does it

#

lol

#

okay I get ur logic

#

but you lose what

strange python
#

You can't apply garrote to last 2 targets

pallid hound
#

400dps?

strange python
#

400dps

#

lmao

pallid hound
#

then how much

#

tell me please

strange python
#

How am I supposed to know

#

If its bugged

pallid hound
#

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

strange python
#

still a dps loss in the long shot

pallid hound
#

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

strange python
#

Any of you guys using Crimson Tempest in M+ ? I'm seeing it pop up in logs.

#

Yeah CT is pretty good on m+

pallid hound
#

@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

strange python
#

yes i'm going to give it a shot

#

but how does that work on tyrannical bosses ?

#

You dont use it on bosses

#

hmm

pallid hound
#

you dont use it on ST until you HAVE to get away from boss for certain amount of time

strange python
#

guess it's still usefull on boss with adds tho ?

pallid hound
#

yes

#

for example u can use it on freehold shark guy

strange python
#

First tol dagor boss

#

f.ex

pallid hound
#

when he starts spinning u can use CT and move away

#

but in normal fight when u just sit on boss its useless

strange python
#

right

pallid hound
#

envenom will do more overall dmg

strange python
#

i suppose you don't use evenom anymore on trash packs then

#

Why not

pallid hound
#

if you have everything dotted properly then you do

#

if not then keep re-applying dots

strange python
#

don't you just use CT as your finisher most of the time ? between refreshing rupture etc..

pallid hound
#

it rly depends

strange python
#

I think that using CT over envenom is only better at like 5+ mobs

#

But not sure

lone junco
#

Ct hit is not huge. Times mob count. Has to exceed the Env.

pallid hound
#

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

strange python
#

yeah

#

pb ct on zekvoz?

#

kill vs padding

#

🤔

#

i think ct ionAddons

#

CT for parse

#

🙂

#

all that matters

hazy pebble
#

when should you refill rupture when u have 4 combo points?

#

5.4?

pallid hound
#

Rupture, refresh with 7.2 seconds remaining at 5 combo points, or 6 seconds remaining at 4 combo points

dawn dragon
#

pretty sure it's in the guide

pallid hound
#

it is, I just copied it from the guide

#

;p

hazy pebble
#

huh i was just lookin at the guide and saw only 6 combo and 5

#

😛

hazy pebble
#

alright ur right

#

XD

strange python
#

but if ure playing exsa

#

Dont overwrite that have exsang on

#

Let the dots drop

mossy flicker
#

is SS traits really better than anything for MM+ ?

pallid bluff
#

Yes

mossy flicker
#

because I have 2 ss pieces, 1 SoB 370 or 340 ss

#

so I can go 2ss+1SoB or 3ss

unkempt karma
#

3ss is sick

pallid bluff
#

340ss beats out everything 370 in my experience

mossy flicker
#

ok then

unkempt karma
#

Even with 2 you pull stupid numbers

mossy flicker
#

yeah it's a very nice trait even after 40% nerf 😉

pallid bluff
#

Eh our numbers are good they aren’t the best anymore but they are really good

mossy flicker
#

dh :>

unkempt karma
#

Well if we Class compare there's always something better, DH keeps getting buffed :p

pallid bluff
#

Nah they got a big nerf recently

#

For their aoe

#

Revolving blades lost like 35% I think

neat ferry
#

ss is still good after nerfs?

pallid bluff
#

Yes

hazy forge
#

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

pallid bluff
hazy forge
#

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

broken fiber
#

That has to be one of the most scuffed openers i have ever seen

pallid bluff
#

That too that’s bunk as hell

hazy forge
#

what should i be doing then

#

also whats the diff between hard and soft opener?

verbal dock
#

Check some pshero, pikaboo and whaaz videos on youtube

pallid bluff
#

Soft opener would be not burning cds also ask in the pvp channel they will know better

verbal dock
#

You'll clear up most of your questions

I've been on vacation, any big updates this past week I should look into?

how do u open wiht master assa ?

lone junco

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

lone junco
#

it is using mark

#

mark, rupture.

#

Ahhhhh

lone junco

thats why you gotta run a sim for wonky setups

Why do I do little dmg in raid abut not in m+ ?

ur talents are siming the highest noobe ?

@wet condor ionwut

wow calm down with the insults mate

strange python

Where did I insult you

lone junco
#

@strange python i just imported Draenor - Ashiné. thats what was being used. I havent tried mark in weeks for ST raid tho

I havent used it yet. but ran that sim. for that guy, and he got 16.5k. st. really big imo

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

#

I need to compare that with Marked for Death

wet condor
#

no buffs i know but thats how youre supposed to sim

#

right?

strange python
#

No

#

u need some ego push nira ?

calm grail
#

What?

wet condor
#

if you sim without any buffs, then you see ur true dmg

calm grail

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 😄

wet condor
#

so i am wrong or what do yo umean? 😃

torpid jackal
#

yes, sim with full buffs

dawn dragon
#

yeah, you need to sim with full raid buffs, pots and all

torpid jackal
#

to closer simulate the actual raid environment

lofty sand
#

Ideally you should have buffs most of the times, at least consumables

wet condor
#

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

lone junco
#

neat i guess.

wet condor
#

That is my equipment yes

lone junco
#

not up by much though

wet condor
#

Oh no thats not my equipment

lone junco
#

thats mine

wet condor
#

xD

#

Why are some parts yellow?

strange python
#

Wouldn’t u want ss on that chest instead of archive ?

#

Or does it sim more ?

wet condor
#

Archive only works in raid i think so SS would suppoesly sim more outside i think

supple hearth
#

archive works everywhere

#

reorignation array is what is raid only

strange python
#

Array buff is only in Uldir

wet condor
#

@torpid jackal i've no simed with buffs whats ur thought?

#

now*

strange python
#

It’s low

wet condor
#

Yeah that's the problem, why is that so do you think?

strange python
#

Why are u simming ct

#

Use poison bomb for single target

wet condor
#

I

#

Okey, sir

lofty sand
#

Its a 2.5% damage increase more or less

strange python
#

So around 350 dps

lofty sand
#

yeah

strange python
#

Maybe less

wet condor
#

But then it's still low

lofty sand
#

low compared to?

pallid bluff
#

that seems pretty standard for around 360

wet condor
#

You see

strange python
#

This is my sim for 363

wet condor
#

You have over 1k more sim than me and ii'm 358 ilvl

lone junco
#

14.1 at 356

wet condor
#

And I can't see what the problem is

#

😦

lone junco
#

how good is your mog? maybe that would help

civic palm
#

l o l

wet condor
#

Whats mog?

lone junco
#

bird shoulders and claws

#

boots need work.

strange python
#

Get better trinkets

pallid bluff
#

14.7 is pretty damn high for that ilvl

lone junco
#

nvm its not going

strange python
#

Like fathoms and gale callers boon

civic palm
#

Also note that item levels don't take into account sockets.

lone junco
#

tru. sockets are good

pallid bluff
#

And 10 Ivl higher weapon is a huge dps increase that doesn’t reflect well

civic palm
#

If I drop the 5 sockets I have I lose like...

dark token
#

7 sockets

strange python
#

How much

#

400ish dps ?

civic palm
#

About.

#

Discord continues to potato

lone junco
#

k 21dps diff between 1arch 2ss. and 2 arch.1dd. and completely different talent setups.

wet condor
#

Mizerok dafuq man we're the same ilvl and you have over 2k more sim

civic palm
strange python
#

#

Read about traits

#

See what trinkets are best

#

Sim your stat weight

wet condor
#

Is there a way i can show you my equipment?

civic palm
#

I was gonna comment that I have few mastery pieces but that's not true.

strange python
#

I’m on mobile

wet condor
#

because i have SS

strange python
#

Ask noobe I bet he can help

civic palm
#

I am running DD/BloodRite/Archive atm.

strange python
#

If hes in the mood

#

😃

lofty sand
#

ilvl is a awful guideline considering how shitty the azerite system is bro

surreal rivet
lofty sand
#

don't worry too much about it, just keep farming those damn azerite pieces

strange python
#

Wowprog has awful sims

civic palm
#

You've a lot of options for Azerite if you've been doing Mythic tours and clearing raid > _>

wet condor
#

I know bro, but if you're looking at the dmg output its so big difference between me and mizerok

pallid bluff
#

And sockets like people have said. Sockets are worth like 10-20 ilvl depending on the piece

civic palm
#

340dps in my case, for sockets that is.

surreal rivet
#

Did we get stealth nerfed? Was simming 15.4 on wowprogress now I sim 15.1

#

And I changed nothing

strange python
#

No dude

#

I told you

#

Wowprog sims are awful

lofty sand
#

yeah its probably because Mizerok has better azerite pieces/trinkets/weapons

surreal rivet
#

Makes sense why haven’t they fixed it after all these years lmao

lofty sand
#

Look at the equipment to compare

#

not the ilvl

lone junco
#

at 358, i would be around 14.2k ish.

lofty sand
#

ilvl is not as relevant

strange python
#

I sim 14,8k and wowprog shows 13,8

civic palm
#

Also going from 340 SS/Heed to 370 Bloodrite/Gutripper was like... 300 > _>

wet condor
#

Mizerok can u link ur armory?

civic palm
wet condor
#

You're not going SS ?

civic palm
#

For Raids? Why would I sabotage myself?

void pecan
#

^

strange python
#

Ss isn’t bad for raids

civic palm
#

Right it's just worse than other options.

strange python
#

Depends

civic palm
#

and specifically good on fights where respeccing with middling spec knowledge would lead to better DPS.

void pecan
#

not at home to do other, but my raid gear is

#

15.1? or higher

wet condor
#

So youre saying the problem with my dmg being low in raids are my SS traits?

civic palm
#

I do not know the DPS difference between SUB/SS and MA/notSS.

undone sandal
#

What is the best way to deal with infested?

civic palm
#

Kill the little fuckers.

undone sandal
#

I mean like time-efficient.

#

Focus down, or sap the target with infested

#

and kill the others

wet condor
#

Why is my stat weights on every stat lower than urs Mizerok? What does it mena

#

mean

civic palm
#

That your stats are different.

#

That's all.

wet condor
#

So its not noteworthy, i can ignore it?

civic palm
#

Yeah there's nothing broken there or anything.

#

gimme gimme

#

That out of context makes no sense.

#

ENV casts on Mother.

undone sandal
#

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?

civic palm
#

If you are playing MFD then probably ENV > MFD > ENV'ing the little nerd.

pallid bluff
#

Still multidot some stuff for energy and to have dots up when ingested dies

lofty sand
#

I currently run 1 SS on raids because I dropped a 370 and I don't have any other pieces to swap it 😩

civic palm
#

Depends on whether your group kills them fast or not.

pallid bluff
#

And just pump env into the infested

civic palm
#

If you can play Prey on the Weak then maybe CS them?

undone sandal
#

Playing Vigor and Iron wire

#

but maybe swap for infested?

pallid bluff
#

No iron wire is better

civic palm
#

Yeah IW is, much too strong.

pallid bluff
#

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

versed bobcat
#

wait u play IW and not internal bleeding? jumping back into discussion just now

undone sandal
#

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?

pallid bluff
#

Yeah internal bleeding is shit in pve

#

Pvp it’s great

undone sandal
#

Yeah, I use it when I do BG's and it feels really nice.

pallid bluff
#

The damage it brings is negligible for pve

craggy helm
#

May be decent in tol dagor. End up being the one stunning the riot shield mobs the whole time.

pallid bluff
#

Nope

#

Iron wire utility is too good

undone sandal
#

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+.

lofty sand
#

Surprised blizzard never put their dirty hands in IW considering how strong it is compared to every other talent in that row

undone sandal
#

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.

sleek onyx
#

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.

civic palm
#

Iron Wire was nerfed twice already.

pallid bluff
#

I don’t even know if it’s possible to get a 3rd gcd in subterfuge. Haste still drops then gcd right?

void pecan
#

haste doesn't change gcd, if that's what you're asking.

civic palm
#

Haste cannot drop a GCD past 1 second.

pallid bluff
#

Yeah don’t think it’s possible then

lone junco
#

rip haste for my 2ss 1 arch. single

civic palm
#

👍

lone junco
#

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.

civic palm
#

Thankfully I have a 2xSS-TtK set for M+ and DD-BR-Chive for Raids.

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.

you mean above?

#

oh

rough sable

Yea just corrected it

lost sentinel

is it best to stack quick navigation on both weapons or do 1 deadly and 1 quick?

1 of each.

is anybody using assa rogue for wound poison healing debuffs during adds on mythic fetid

clever coral

When is a good time to activate galecallers boon? Right after comming out of stealth?

tardy yoke

Considering you want to kill then Before they start to heal it seems bad to go wound

mint oar
#

whats our haste breakpoint?

dusky moon
#

So yesteday I saw a rogue in M+ with 3x Shrouded Suffocation traits. Does it make any sense?

#

sim-wise it is kinda low

civic palm
#

...

pallid bluff
#

3x SS is the best traits you could have for m+

dusky moon
#

huh, really?

pallid bluff
#

Yes

void pecan
#

Why would it be bad in a multi target quick burst situation?

pallid bluff
#

Simming m+ is even more unreliable than normal sims are. Not to mention the APL doesn’t use SS correctly

dusky moon
#

I guess I need to build an M+ gear set then

void pecan
#

Yep

pallid bluff
#

Well m+ stats are completely different than raid stats anyway

is SS even worth going, I used to stack it but im not sure anymore

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

rough sable

Lol.

strange python
#

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.

twin egret

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?

fossil jewel
#

Ty. Didn't see that in guide and wasnt showing up in sims.

strange python
#

Indeed the guide doesn't answer my question

civic palm
#

_>

pallid bluff
#

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

civic palm
#

What the guide doesn't say is whether or not you spam CT ever.

strange python
#

"Cleave" is a very ambiguous term

civic palm
#

is it ?

lofty sand
#

wait what

civic palm
#

What is your assumption that "Cleave" is?

lofty sand
#

how

#

ahahaha

glad light
#

it doesn't answer the question of CT on 2 or 3 targets

civic palm
#

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.

glad light
#

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?

pallid bluff
#

You def don’t spam on 3 targets

void pecan
#

🔥

civic palm
#

MORE MORE MORE

#

There's a 3T breakpoint but it usually takes more targets to make it obvious.

lofty sand
#

oh you maintain CT on 2 targets? I never do that, I learned something today

civic palm
#

It is however, better to run PBOMB for 2 targets > _>"

#

Just change mid-combat 👌

lofty sand
#

hahaha

pallid bluff
#

The guide may say it but I’ve seen a lot of the top sin guys not use it

lofty sand
#

I'm running bomb this week for Tyranical anyways

civic palm
#

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.

rough sable
#

Anyone read any good books lately?

civic palm
#

Yeah.

#

:3

lofty sand
#

I'm finishing the Mistborn series actually.

civic palm
#

👌

peak saffron
#

you don’t spam ct on 3+ targets

tranquil pivot
civic palm
#

Where's the breakpoint for CT targets then?

strange python
#

I was asking that but instead got snarky answers to read guide

pallid bluff
#

It’s high

civic palm
#

Like 8?

pallid bluff
#

Probably

#

If nothing is gonna live for longer than 10 seconds the might be worth

civic palm
#

Yeah.

peak saffron
#

I would say it’s situational. but saying you spam it on 3+ targets is a blanket statement

civic palm
#

Most people look for blanket statements, so knowing an actual number for something like that is good enough for them.

pallid bluff
#

But it’s probably better to get ruptures and then env the priority

lofty sand
#

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.

pallid bluff
#

In most cases except on extremely high number of enemies

civic palm
#

Yeah that's fine.

manic minnow
#

Hey guys. How do you set your sim up when you sim for m+ trash packs optimizations? Not sure what to set it to.

peak saffron
#

@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

civic palm
#

Also depends on whether or not you have any Scents, as that skews Rupture further ahead of CT.

pallid bluff
#

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

civic palm
#

His question was whether or not you use CT on Cleave.

#

2 or 3 targets.

lofty sand
#

but also if you have Twist the Knife your Env is higher isnt it? So it makes it harder to know

civic palm
#

Easier to maintain at least.

lofty sand
#

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.

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

civic palm
#

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.

lofty sand

Transmog is the single most important thing in this game and the true end game.

ah just had a google, it's essentially where children go to play dress up by the looks of it 😉

It's not intended to be "perfect" in any way.

oh, okay

Well its mostly an add fight? But we got alot of mages :p

Nope, probably should be, dorks.

This is the opener the APL does/did last I checked.

Didnt we vanish rupture in Legion?

if you run nightstalker

With Nightstalker sure.

oh ya

im thinking vendetta TB mut vanish envenom

#

is better

#

2 envenoms in assassin window

lofty sand
#

I forget we had shoulders and nightstalker

#

😭

civic palm
#

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.

dark token
#

double dose scales off crit well right? if both parts of mut strike it hits

civic palm
#

Probably.

#

I think 1 DD ended up being 3% dmg last night lemme check.

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

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

swift pelican
#

(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

How do yall deal with the adds

Kill them

civic palm

Depends on how your raid deals with them.

strange python
#

Which adds

#

Small or big

vestal abyss
#

How do i kill the adds most efficiently

#

the ones that die before i get my dots off

strange python
#

Just FoK

#

Or use CT for that fight

swift pelican
#

do you CT even in 1 target?

vestal abyss
#

no

#

i feel like i really fall behind a lot of other classes on those adds

strange python
#

Well ofcs

#

Sin burst is shit

#

AoE burst*

#

If those adds die too fast

#

Just use FoK and keep attacking boss

vestal abyss
#

I just wanted to make sure i make the most out of it

strange python
#

Else, spec into CT and instead of using Envenom, use CT for those few seconds

swift pelican
#

spam it tho?

#

cuz, initial dmg suck

#

at what seconds remaining do you refresh CT?

strange python
#

You can spam it at 4+ targets

#

have you guys gone high mastery or haste this week?

karmic ingot
#

What’s the fascination with heavy mastery lately?

lone junco
#

@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.

Simmed 4 targets with CT

And envenon is replaced with CT

Lets see with 3 🤔

4t patchwerk. With or without lust?

strange python
#

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.
