hm

desert vault
#

don't have it, my GCB is max ilvl, but not super ideal for MA, still good for TB

#

then only have a 360 dice and fathoms really

velvet kernel
#

gcb is like 3rd best for MA

primal estuary
#

ma*?

ohh

turbid galleon
#

Well I just found out that the Taloc haste trinket got buffed by a bit

velvet kernel
#

still sims shit for me

turbid galleon
#

Mine is an 385 with socket over 370 dice

velvet kernel
#

thats pogchamp

crystal vault
#

whats the stomp timer on fetid, someone knows?

desert vault
#

Too often! I know adds are about 1:05ish. So stomp every 30s?

#

Just a guess though

craggy raptor

57 seconds-2:10-3:30

molten moon
#

It's a shame raidbots api doesn't factor exang properly.....it never sims higher DPS and EVERY top rogue uses in M+

lone junco
#

well.

#

what fight did you sim to deal with Exang In M+?

#

did you sim 1t 2m, 3t 20 6t 40? then do a composite dps based on pull counts in the instance?

#

lol

#

i didnt bother with BFA. cause SS is >>

#

i actually did it for Upper. cause I feeely that legion exang was better

#

but it was not.

#

i played it for raid full time. but m+ was not a gain for me. ever

#

literally only the 4m sim was >>

#

and even barely at that.

#

all the other counts and durations was shoulder mastery stack

#

i was bored at work one day

#

meh

#

@molten moon people use Exang in M+ over TB, because SS is godly for the 3-10t cleaves. so in order to pump the ST bosses exang on SS is best. In cleave it is effectively just an energy gain due to faster tick rates.

#

I guess that was 9500 rating, idk.

round harbor
#

Draw my dps like one of those french girls

paper bough
#

Do I need galecallers and 20% haste or more for Exsanguinate to overtake toxic blade

#

Also both of my only 385 Azerite pieces are dagger in the back and my 370 shoulders are the only SS piece I have unless I give up wearing the 385 ditb Chest for fetid 370 SS chest

velvet kernel
#

why do you want to run ss/exsang?

paper bough
#

Also are these 18k sims I see floating around buffed or unbuffed

velvet kernel
#

why do you care?

paper bough
#

So I can dim my character and gauge where I stand in comparison????

velvet kernel
#

im so confused

paper bough
#

Yea you are

velvet kernel
#

why would they not be buffed?

#

why would you not sim with that?

#

unless its for m+ but you would not sim 1 target

paper bough
#

Why wouldn’t I run SS and exsang

velvet kernel
#

well dd and tb/ma is really good too

#

or just sub ss and tb

#

and loads of ppl sim 18k+

#

but dont worry about sims :d

paper bough
#

I don’t know what to say

velvet kernel
#

?

zealous lily
#

Did SimC/raidbots update with the Construct Overcharger change?

#

nevermind checked raidbots discord and the answer is yes.

paper bough
#

What ballpark dps you think I should be simming at for.375 I level st patchwerk 5min full buffs

#

I’m pretty underwhelmed with this number

velvet kernel
#

what number?

#

and it legit does not matter

paper bough
#

16.5k

zealous lily
#

with 10 stacks?

paper bough
#

It has to matter because I’m fed up with guessing whether shit tier 385 traits are better or worse than 370 SS/ good traits

velvet kernel
#

no need to guess

#

just sim them

#

why are you guessing when you can sim?

paper bough
#

Just throw the pieces on and then sim the stuff I think is best vs other gear combos until I get the highest number

#

Is what I’ve been doing

velvet kernel
#

just use topgear

short arch
#

topgear

and look at herodamage

Yo if anyone is playing MA Sin i was just curious of ur opener for raid

spice surge
#

Its in the guide

dawn coyote
#

For those of you are 375+ ilvl, is mastery climbing your stat weights like crazy aswell?

#

I'm not quite sure why but mines way up there now, just below haste but higher than agi aswell

hidden anchor
#

y'all running CT or bomb this week for m+?

eager linden
#

@dawn coyote Yes, same for me Haste > Mast > Agility. But i'm playing MA/TB and an Envenom trait. Also I have a high D-Eye Spyglass so i can see why Mast is gaining value and Crit is losing

#

@hidden anchor Depends on the key level, the dungeon & the other two dps

hidden anchor
#

mage, DH

#

i usually only run CT with them on fort weeks

inner pecan
#

you should still run it in any key that isn't KR or possibly Temple

dawn coyote
#

@eager linden Okay, but it's a bit strange though because I'm not using the spyglass, I'm running with loaded dice and plumage so I'm not sure why mastery is valued so much more than crit for me

round harbor
#

for anyone who has killed ghuun or is progging, when do i want to rotate my vendetta? @1 minute on tendril or just hold until 2m burn on ghuun

#

Does anyone else have a problem shadowstepping to the first boss in Siege of Boralus? It tells me I can't do that right now

unkempt gulch
#

anyone in first add group on fetid? do you use vendetta on the big add or the little one

errant mauve
#

can you shadow step with orbs on ghuun?

safe matrix
#

yes

#

holding an orb does not prevent shadowstepping

autumn storm
#

does the enchant matter which hand its in? like is deadly stronger if its in main hand?

safe matrix
#

no

#

it does not matter which hand

lost horizon
#

I've simmed and found otherwise, but that was for sub, not sure if it's spec relevant

nimble tartan
#

I use my vendetta on pull on ghuun cause I'm on special mission tendril killing the leftmost one all alone

lost horizon
#

actually nvm, not sure what results i was looking at but just resimmed to check

runic berry
#

i know its prob been asked a million times but what azu traits you guys finding best for uldir?

I have a fair few questions for assassination, is anyone free to dm me or should I just post em here a few (1) at a time?

Never had issues with it tbh

What’s your opinion about double dose Azerite trait for mythic+? Is unstable catalyst or twist the knife better?

patent topaz
#

I got fetid chest, zul shoulders on first kill and 390 dagger from weekly chest, finally some upgrades

weary granite
#

for 3 targets with exsang, do i garrote 3x, rupture, mutliate, rupture a different target, exsang, or is there a better way to do it?

#

Hey guys, just looking for a bit of guidance, just dinged 120, what is the 'go to' scrub talent spec for bog standard dungeons?

#

Took a huge break after last expac and I'm a wee bit behind at the mo

weary granite
#

the assasination guide on ravenholdt has one christopher

#

2212221 i think

paper mural
#

Cool, thanks mate

cunning needle
#

and stack shrouded suffociation

#

if you plan on doing a lot of m+

paper mural
#

Just need to get geared at the mo, so not for a bit

cunning needle
#

well try aim for that gear if you can

#

i know the helm drops from SoS

cant remember the rest

glhf though

sweet acorn
#

Looking for a bit of advice on Mythic ZekVoz, what is everyone running in terms of Azerite Traits?

civic palm
#

item level, DD if you have it.

sweet acorn
#

I thought DD was pretty average for AoE?

supple wolf
civic palm
#

If you need AoE go OTL or something > _>

sweet acorn
#

Let me rephrase, should I focus more on having an AoE presence for Zek through Crimson etc

civic palm
#

SIN works fine IMO, most people are well above the designed item level for those encounters.

#

If warriors are taking too long to die, try and do something about it.

sweet acorn
#

Fair enough.

#

I'm still reading I should be aiming for SS despite it not simming as high as DD?

supple wolf
#

It's 2 different situation things

#

DD is strictly single target

#

Ss can be used for both

sweet acorn
#

Fair enough.

#

Ty

autumn jacinth
#

is it worth to have 2 archive of the titans?

civic palm
#

Yeah the stats are fine you just don't get the passive twice.

autumn jacinth
#

yeah its either that or shrouded suffocation

got a 340 galecaller's boon from Mythic 0 yesterday, and gave it to a hunter....stupid move? already have fathoms and harlan's 345

@brave gyro didnt have time, he begged for it like crazy, oh well...

#

@lean coral really? ...damn....

#

@patent topaz i got 1 SS 1 Archi 1 DD 😄

devout glen
#

hey how are u guys simming for m+ with SS?

dusky tinsel
#

3 targets, sometimes 40 sec - 3 mins, do different variations of that usually

quick ice
#

alternately, there's a guide somewhere that shows you how to use raidbots advanced mode to do DungeonSlice, which is what they use on herodamage , it trys to mimic part of a mythic+ dungeon

solid nova

prisma monolithBOT
quick ice
#

oh there it is

#

thought it was pinned

vestal wren
#

its pinned in #subtlety, i just added it to the bot also

devout glen
#

this is a state weight for m+ right?

#

stat

vocal wave
#

For exsang out of vendetta and vanish, do I rupture > garrote > rupture exsang?

devout glen
#

if i onlyt plan on doing m+ for my ass rogue, should i be using the stat weights of 3 target 1 min fights?

#

cuz the haste prio is super low

vast forum
#

Sim for 3-6 targets, 40sec-1min

devout glen
#

yeah its basically teling me to use all my mastery heavy gear is there a certain amount of haste % i should aim for to not be completly useless on bosses?

vast forum
#

On tyrannical you might want some haste, but you won't be useless no matter what

devout glen
#

ah ok

#

so i should be gemming straight into mastery since its my lowest over than verse

vast forum
#

Idk, do what the sims tell you

#

For me it's crit>mastery

rain pewter
#

I just love the hastestacking fantasy

winter gale
#

I also need mastery now and I am sitting on 15% haste only

#

Sims already says I should enchant into mastery for some of my items

brisk raptor
#

switch your crit enchantment on wep to mastery if you have any

#

I assume your crit is high

fair sparrow
#

Hey Guys, is there any guide that tells which talents to use on specific affixes in which dungeons? For instance Tryanical Temple - use poison bomb instead of CT and such?

brisk raptor
#

well you can just think about it

random scroll
#

so many SS and DD traits in the new raid 😮

brisk raptor
#

for fortified its CT cuz of mobs’ high HP, then for tyrannical/ST heavy fight, just aim for PB

fair sparrow
#

Yeah, just wanted to see if there are some experienced people here who already have this tested 😃 In theory, what you said should be the rule

brisk raptor
#

I dont know anything about this rotation, Im just using whichever I prefer most in dungs

#

You should’ve been in every m+ by now so you can decide whether one is AoE or ST heavy 😀

glacial abyss
#

is the best gem to get on pieces like wrist a haste gem?

quasi pewter
#

Sim it

solid nova
#

It'll be whatever your highest stat is from your simmed stat weights

round harbor
#

@fair sparrow it also depends on how much you are pulling. If your tank can't handle like 4+ mobs consistently then pb may pull ahead a little more

#

CT is nice, but I've found the gap between the two in pugs to be very small if any

fair sparrow
#

Yeah, thats my problem. My tank is still bet shaky (he did 1st 10 yday) so pulls are not that big. Also I'm wondering about excetpions, Tryanicall weeks where CT would be better due to bigger packs (motherlode) and fortified where pb would pull ahead

ruby idol
#

Pb for temple/kr usually. Depending on how you pull underrot it can be good there too

#

Ct everything else always

fair sparrow
#

it's all small difference but still, i like to be sure i'm using best possible talents and so on 😃

#

makes me feel good

round harbor
#

Also consider playing other specs while your learning and progressing

#

I much prefer outlaw in motherlode/atal and for shrine/TD sub is top tier

fair sparrow
#

could do that, outlaw is honestly way more fun spec in dynamical encounters such as PVP, while sin i like for dps i pull. But i'm still uncomfortable with sub, i need more experience on it.

#

Thank for the input, i'll try to see what azerite i have for outlaw and sub

vocal harbor
#

apparently i'm simming equally between 375 SS/Archive and 385 TTK + 375 archive

#

DD on the helm for both sets

quick ice
#

is the archive piece the same piece? because if it isn't, I'd use the setup with SS, just so you can use the same slot in M+ 😃

vocal harbor
#

it is unfortunately

#

i give up archive on chest to use SS, shoulders get archive

#

oh wait i see what you mean lol

#

yeah i can swap out the shoulders for m+

delicate egret
#

Ummm, I think something fucky is going on with my sims, for some reason Sharpened Blade is simming higher than SS, on two equal ilvl pieces, and I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to be happening

quick ice
#

with subterfuge?

I found the fuckup

Was simming in sub spec

15+ML key this with CT feels really good.

#

Hey guys, on vectis when I run with exsang, my bleed and garrotes times seem to get messed up. How do you guys use exsang when you have no vanish and no vendetta. Do you rupture twice and garotte before exsang ? Or just hold exsang for when you do a fresh application of rupture and garote

pure umbra
#

Are you guys still using PB on King's rest?

hey fellas, I've been out of the loop for a little while. what spec is performing well in primarily M+ content atm?

quick ice

!best

prisma monolithBOT
solid sluice
#

tyvm

echo night
#

In M+ assass is the best spec on avg, but its outplayed by outlaw on certain dungeons and affixes, alle 3 are viable, just dont expect to come close to the other spec preformances in their prime scenarios, but yea, assass and outlaw are very solid allround specs atm, sub feels a bit weird but has its place in M+ aswell

#

All 3*

#

@solid sluice

#

Also comes down to your group comp, whats the best utility for your setup, probably the most important thing atm

delicate egret
#

How long before TB comes off CD do you guys usually start pooling?

echo night
#

Depends on how many targets you have poisoned and bleeds on, can vary a bit :)

#

On st i usually wait somewhere between 4-6 sec tops

#

If im drained

#

But again, i might be wrong :)

delicate egret
#

How many ilvls do you guys think SS is worth approx? asking cause I have a 370 chest with poisoned wire + overwhelming power and I'm considering running normal for a chance at a 355 fetid chest

spice surge
#

For m+ 355 100%

#

For singletarget you'd have to sim it but i think it would be close, poisoned wire is very bad

shy escarp
#

for me a 355 SS helm was worth more than a 385 SoB helm in M+

#

really 360 since I have enough AP to get the last trait on that and not the 385

vague patrol
#

355 over 385 really? what did you sim

#

that's pretty extreme

spice surge
#

That sounds reasonable, especially if you're just doing 10's SoB has like no value

#

and SS is insane

shy escarp
#

5 target patchwerk 40s is what I usually use to sim M+

vague patrol
#

you have to factor in boss dmg too, especially tyrannical

#

and yeah i guess it depends on how high of a key

shy escarp
#

SoB is also garbage on ST

vague patrol
#

sure but +30 ilvl of agility isnt

spice surge
#

I mean yeah you lose like 2% on boss dps, but you gain like 5% on aoe, which is the majority of the dungeon

shy escarp
#

it would be a very minor ST damage loss for a massive buff to trash damage

#

even on tyrannical trash is what matters most

vague patrol
#

well if it's 5% vs 2% then yes sure

shy escarp
#

SS is just ridiculously ahead of everything else in M+

vague patrol
#

ill have to try some more sims

#

for me it would be archive rather than sob tho

#

or battlefield focus i guess

#

would prefer to just finally get a 385 ss shoulder or helm sigh...

shy escarp
#

I did managed to get a 385 SS shoulder...but it also has inevitability on it so I have it set to that now because I wanted to play some sub

vague patrol
#

i only have the fetid chest with ss but until i get at least 1 more piece its hard to justify over outlaw

shy escarp
#

in my gear setup Sub is actually simming slightly higher than Assassin because my 2 385 pieces have 2 BiS Sub traits, but Assassin is way easyer to play

vague patrol
#

for m+

shy escarp
#

need more sub practice

vague patrol
#

for raid sin is better for a lot of fights even if sub sims slightly higher just because sub is so bad on 2-3 targets

#

compared to sin

#

which is a lot of uldir

shy escarp
#

yeah, I did Vectis for the first time as Sub and I didn't like it

low palm
#

Hello guys, I am a sin rogue but i keep getting very low parses, I follow the rotation in the ravenholdt guide, have 2xSS with ExS build and overall i don't really know why my DPS is so low... I always keep in mind not to overwrite a stealthed Garrote and try to pool energy before envenoming... I don't know what i'm missing, could someone lend me a hand or give me some pointers on how to read my logs so i can find out my weaknesses? Thanks https://www.warcraftlogs.com/character/id/35452714

vague patrol
#

you're like 10 ilvl behind to parses and your kill times are a little long for starters

delicate egret
#

You're supposed to pool before envenom?

wheat zealot
#

No you dont have to

low palm
#

So i can get 2 mutilates in the window of the finisher proc? I thought that was the idea

#

and if i do a "lookup by ilvl" im still in 60 percentile in some bosses which i consider pretty low

#

the "by ilvl" option is looking at an ilvl window I might be behind?

wheat zealot
#

Ilvl% is like a 4 itemlevel range

#

So theres brackets like 360-364

vague patrol
#

ilvl parses are weird

#

people mainly look at overall

#

although the new weighted dps one is cool if that actually works

round wadi
#

@low palm take off that raid trinket man and try to get a galecaller

versed flare
#

is Suffocation still worth it after the nerf. I see some saying do other traits and some say use it

shy escarp
#

in M+ is still destroys all other options

#

in raids it's still one of the top handful of traits

round wadi
#

Is still the best trait even in raid

#

Its

versed flare
#

glad I have been keeping all version of azerite gear then. thanks.

round wadi
#

U have to play with subterfuge and exs tho

shy escarp
#

and you probably need something like galecallers for the full combo to have it beat out something like double dose on ST

#

at least for me without galecallers DD is better

vague patrol
#

its not the best single target trait for raid

#

that really depends on your other gear and stuff but it's often outperformed by others

versed flare
#

yeah, i have a 340 gale. need to spam that mythic+ for a better one though

round wadi
#

Well I u want to aim for the best one it's ss

strange python
#

Hey i just recently switched to assa, how important are the azerite traits? Got 1x SS, is this enough to play assa effectively? Im mainly playing lower key m+

low palm
#

@round wadi i will try to get a galecaller, thanks

versed flare
#

so SS needs the exsanguinate talent for full effectiveness?

spice surge
#

SS is not the best one though

#

SS is one of the best, but DD is the best

#

For raids

vast forum
#

Ss is the best overall, just not on patchwerk

#

So basically best on all the important bosses

round wadi
#

Even If u look at Sims numbers ss is higher on patchwerk

delicate egret
#

How strong is overwhelming power?

vast forum
#

I sim 18.4k with 2xSS A
and 17.9 with dd i think

spice surge
#

"Important bosses" is basicly just g'huun, where ST in the last phase is really the only dps check

round wadi
#

Yeah and in that phase exsg with double ss sucks

#

Right?

spice surge
#

I never said it sucke

#

I said DD sims higher

#

Which is objectively true

round wadi
#

Man it doesn't

vast forum
#

Ghuun isn't the only important boss

round wadi
#

Just check herodmg

vast forum
#

There's plenty of 6h/w guilds still progressing earlier bosses

delicate egret
#

Herodmg seems weird

round wadi
#

x2 ss Sims higher then x2 dd

delicate egret
#

rates SS as one of the lowest traits of all

vast forum
#

Just because all the 9-12h/w guilds are at ghuun doesn't mean it's the only important boss in the raid

round wadi
#

@delicate egret yea if u can't use it

#

U have to change from default to exsg

vast forum
#

Click on exsg

delicate egret
#

Riiight

#

If I sim my char with SS and exsg it sims lower than SS and TB, any idea what's causing that?

#

Not enough haste?

round wadi
#

Probably or u just dont have gcb

delicate egret
#

I don't

#

Need that to make it work?

round wadi
#

Yea it does a lot

spice surge
#

@round wadi There is literally no way to read herodamage where you get that SS is better than DD, unless you limit yourself to not playing tb

round wadi
#

Wat

#

U just check the dmg of the default build with 2x DD

#

And then u check the ss dmg with exsg build

spice surge
#

Well thats a stupid comparison as TB is higher by defualt

#

but ok

round wadi
#

Lol

#

Ok

vast forum
#

Pointless discussion, as exsg is just better in any non-pure st fight

hard cove
#

hmm i seem to be simming quite a bit higher with subterfuge 2x SS traits and exang

#

over TB and DD

#

its like 500 dps difference xD

vast forum
#

And only pure st fight is mother and taloc, the 2 easiest bosses

round wadi
#

And even at mother ss exsg is so much better

vast forum
#

Agreed

round wadi
#

Aniway people can play whatever they prefer

hard cove
#

simming at around 16.8k with tb and dd and simming 17.3k with SS and exang

#

for a 5 mins patchwerk

round wadi
#

But don't say is stupid just cause u can't read it

spice surge
#

🤷

vast forum
#

Tb/dd is still good, just not at all versatile

#

Pulls slightly ahead on st on high gear levels i think

hard cove
#

hmm think imma make the swap over too exang and try that out xD

#

if its simming higher then it will likelly be better for me i guess

vast forum
#

You've been simming higher with exsg and running tb

hard cove
#

i got a crap load of haste + 370 gcb though

vast forum
#

Mad lad

hard cove
#

nahh i just started simming higher coz i got a second SS trait yesterday

#

before that it was simming lower coz i only had 1 SS trait

patent topaz
#

31 haste with array

strange python
#

so i usually get 8-10 spot on dps but i still apperantly suck because my dps is around 10k and apperantly it should be much higher

hard cove
#

whats your ilvl dpw ?

strange python
#

i think im just messing up my rotation

#

364

hard cove
#

should be a little higher yeh could be a number of things wrong though

#

like stats traits talents or rotation

vast forum
#

Post logs, hope someone cares to go through them

strange python
#

i checked that guide for talents and my talents are good

#

but one question toxic blade or the bleed faster thing

hard cove
#

depends on your traits tbh

vast forum
#

Check the 10 min discussion that happened just a moment ago

hard cove
#

usually toxic blade unless your going full in on the exanguinate build

strange python
#

ok toxic blade

patent topaz
#

for me exsang sims 30 dps more

#

so I just play exsang for everything

hard cove
#

yeah it sims alot higher for me too grizzled

#

but i got 2x SS traits and 370 galecallers boon

#

so ive fully invested into the bleed build

strange python
#

so i should use "exsang"

#

lul

hard cove
#

if you have 2x shrouded suffocation traits

#

and a galecallers boon

#

and alot of haste

#

yes

#

if you dont have all those

#

then no

strange python
#

ya the only thing i could change is 2 shrouded suffocation

hard cove
#

but honestly just sim yourself dpw

#

sims can tell you which talent set ups work best for you

strange python
#

i have no idea how to use sim XD

hard cove
spice surge
hard cove
#

its super simple

spice surge
strange python
#

so whats dd and what ss

hard cove
#

DD = double dose

#

SS = shrouded suffocation

strange python
#

oh

#

i want to sim but it puts me at sub

spice surge
#

Because you logged out as sub, download the simulationcraft addon

strange python
#

have

spice surge
#

Then type /simc ingame and copy what you get, then paste it into raidbots

strange python
#

paste raidbots sounds complex XD

round wadi
#

@spice surge that's not a pure trait dps Sim

#

Aniway

spice surge
#

It is?

#

Both have the same traits except SS and DD

round wadi
#

It's not

strange python
#

just realized it said i can do 18k dps

#

man i really suck

#

ya i can do a little more at 10k XD

#

you mean almost double my dps

#

nvm it says 13k for me XD

spice surge
#

One helm has DD/heed, the other has SS/heed, one has a whirl/dd chest the other has a whirl/SS chest

#

Now im just gonna assume you're trolling

#

@strange python Keep in mind sims are done with full buffs and bloodlust

strange python
#

im using cowl of fluid machinations (mythic 8) no dd only ss

spice surge
#

With pots, flasks/food. So trying on a dummy you will not be even close to 18k

strange python
#

oh

round wadi
#

I'm not trolling but np

delicate egret
#

do you refresh bleeds right before exsg?

round wadi
#

Yes

spice surge
#

If rupture is under 22 seconds and only garrote if its is in pandemic

strange python
#

i used toxic blade all my rogue life

round wadi
#

U simmed them with the same stats that are the stats that works best for tb

#

With dd

#

That's not a pure trait dps sim

spice surge
#

I simmed with the default profile

#

There isnt much gear choices in uldir

#

Its the same as herodamage uses

strange python
#

thanks for teaching me how to us sim

hard cove
#

we didnt teach you the guide in the link did 😛

#

but use that often its a very powerful tool as a dps player

strange python
#

comparing two 370 shoulders i have right now

spice surge
#

Also there is barrely any difference between exsang and tb stats anyway. The only thing is that galecaller gives slightly more damage when using exsang

strange python
#

dont you want to vendetta vanish garrote

#

if you have subterfuge

spice surge
#

Yes, but not during pull

#

As you already got a garrote out of stealth from being in stealth on pull

strange python
#

i know not right away

oblique smelt
#

arguing with a guildie over this, is it possible to get 5 garrotes out of stealth?

strange python
#

yes

spice surge
#

No?

oblique smelt
#

im saying 4 + 6 seconds waiting for other

spice surge
#

Only 3

lament dove
#

no, only 3

strange python
#

i can do 4 then one out of it

#

i mean one then its on cooldown

spice surge
#

You can only do 3 in stealth, but you can have more up at the same time

strange python
#

:p

oblique smelt
#

well 3 subterfuge and then 1 more since that doesnt go on CD

lament dove
#

yes, you can do 4, but 4th one will not be empowered by the 80% of subterfuge

oblique smelt
#

yea i know that much

strange python
#

the 4th one for me will

oblique smelt
#

hes just saying that you can get 5 mobs

spice surge
#

So unless you use vanish you can only get 3 from subterfuge

hard cove
#

dpw no it wont its impossible

strange python
#

and i only got 808 haste (12%)

spice surge
#

No you cant get 4 from subterfuge, you only have 3 seconds

hard cove
#

no one can

spice surge
#

And gcds is always 1s each

hard cove
#

i have 21% haste and can still only get 3 out

spice surge
#

Rogue gcd doesnt scale with haste

#

Its always 1 second

strange python
#

oh ok

#

so why do i want haste?

hard cove
#

it makes your bleeds tick faster

spice surge
#

More energy

hard cove
#

and gives enegery regen

#

but mostly for the bleed ticks

strange python
#

this whole time i thought i wanted mastery

hard cove
#

nope

paper bough
hard cove
#

haste > crit is what ive gone with

oblique smelt
#

alright so not possible to insta get 5 out froms tealth without CD happening, was thinking that maybe i was just misplaying this entire time

paper bough
#

i just feel like i should be capable of 90+ and im following the guide on ravenholdt to a tee

#

i really dont want to chalk what i feel to be subpar parses up to just getting more gear

#

if anyone can provide fb id appreciate it

hard cove
#

zas if its a big trash pull you can do your 3 garrote and vanish to get another 3 out after your crimson tempest

#

but without vanish your capped at 3 empowered garrotes +1 non empowered

strange python
#

vanish right away after third garrote so you can do 7

#

problem solved XD

hard cove
#

nah you likely wont have the energy for another 3 right after the first 3

strange python
#

then 5-6

hard cove
#
  • you got 5 combo points that your sitting on
#

so you wanna spend those

#

or your losing dps

oblique smelt
#

i usually do 3 garrote > CT > Garrote > Fan > Rupture

#

dunno if its best but just what i have gotten used to

hard cove
#

same here

spice surge
#

@paper bough Seems like you're not using TB nearly on cd, theoretically you should've been able to get 3 more of during that fight

hard cove
#

but if its a big pull

#

like a double pack pull

spice surge
#

Slightly less since its not a full ST boss, but atleast 1 or 2 more is def possible

strange python
#

ct

oblique smelt
#

big pulls i tend to just spam CT over rupture

hard cove
#

ill 3x garrote > CT pull a lil energy vanish 3x garrote > CT then FoK rupture spam

paper bough
#

i know i need to work on that eleem, thanks for pointing out. i just feel like there has to be other shit going on

strange python
#

whats ct

paper bough
#

that makes the difference between 78 and 90+

hard cove
#

crimson tempest

paper bough
#

unless it really is im just competing with a lot of geared people

strange python

oh

spice surge
#

You def are, but also mythrax is more of a pad fight

strange python
#

so now i know aoe open whats single open :p

haughty lily
#

Are you supposed to CT on mythrax?

#

Everything is so spread out

strange python
#

i dont think its good

haughty lily
#

I usually just going around rupturing and garrote the entire world

spice surge
#

You can have groups where one/two people are the only ones that get to damage the adds (and therefore get much higher logs) in hc

spice surge
#

@strange python Guide in the pins has openers

paper bough
#

check that out

strange python
#

nice

paper bough
#

it just feels awful topping damage and then getting a shit parse

oblique smelt
#

Single opener is in guide like most things but from memory, Garrote, Mutilate, Rupture, vendetta, mutilate to 4+ envenom, toxic blade

paper bough
#

i can alsmost guarentee i fuck up tb in that one too

haughty lily
#

Welcome to being a rogue

#

Lol

strange python
#

when do i apply garrote and rupture right after its down or right before its down

paper bough
#

is there any advantage to G,G ,R, vend, tb, envenom, mut, mut envenom, mut mut envenom versus G,R,G etc etc

hard cove
#

usually about 4-5 seconds before it falls off dpw

strange python
#

ok imma try on a dummy

hard cove
#

you want to always have your dots rolling

spice surge
#

@strange python Scroll down in the pins and look for pandemic

hard cove
#

them falling off costs you damage + energy

spice surge
#

Its a mechinc you should be aware of

strange python
#

this looks much better than how the dh discord sounds XD

lament dove
#

@paper bough what traits do you have? I have a rezan's fury and I was wondering myself, how much of an impact would have on the parse if I would have a better one... I mean other rogue has 1,5x garrote dmg compared to me while my rezan's fury is doing like 1/5 of the dmg of that difference

strange python
#

rezans fury is meh

paper bough
#

i try to have 1 archive and 1 ss

haughty lily
#

In raids SS doesn’t matter as much, only for really big add fights.

paper bough
#

and then last one is typically whatever my 385 azerite piece has

haughty lily
#

I would focus on DD or sim yourself on single target

strange python
paper bough
#

which i believe right now is dagger in the back

spice surge
#

Ultimately though, you arent gonna get 99% parses with 372 when people are doing it with 385

paper bough
#

i have more gear now im around 377

#

but i get ya

#

i just am really tough on myself and would like to be 90+

#

more often than not when i get beat i inspect the person and they are sporting more 285 azerite and have like 290 weapons

lament dove
#

well, on ZekVoz my rogue pal has 2 SS and he has like 30% garrote dmg and 1/3 of that is from the second SS (compared to me who has 1 SS)...

paper bough
#

i rarely inspect someone with less gear doing more damage

haughty lily
#

I was the same way, then I got all new azerite gear and changed nothing and it happened. Plus a lot of parses are just having the most optimal fight you can

spice surge
#

Focus on using your toxic blades more often, you missed a cast on your mother fight aswell

paper bough
#

on zek you should be combat anyways

#

yea i think thats my biggest problem

lament dove
#

sorry, I meant Vectis:D

paper bough
#

vectis is weird i could use help there too i never know what to do with the add

lament dove
#

kill it:)

paper bough
#

do i swap and throw up garrote and rupture

hard cove
#

refresh your dots on the boss

paper bough
#

do i save vanish for it

hard cove
#

then swap full to add

spice surge
#

Depends on your raid damage

hard cove
#

i usually save vanish so i can garrote boss + add with a big garrote

paper bough
#

no idea if thats optimal

#

andy

spice surge
#

You can just dot it and keep focusing boss if it dies before 2:nd cast anyway, but if it doesnt you refresh your dots on boss then focus 100% on the add

#

Same with vanish saving, if it would die instantly because everyone else has cds there isnt really a point to save it

candid mica

that's most of your problem

#

lol

haughty lily
#

also your fight on taloc was pretty long compared to alot of people with better parses

strange python
#

what should i check for stat trait damage

#

i know i worded that really bad XD

spice surge
#

Herodamage

#

For what traits are best

haughty lily
#

why not bloodmallet?

candid mica
haughty lily
#

i use bloodmallet and then i sim like 2 million times

spice surge
#

Because bloodmallet does only feature the default profile

#

eg SS looks like the worst trait because its simmed with MA

#

Whereas on herodamage they have a little icon next to ss indicating that its with subterfuge instead

haughty lily
#

i hate SS im an advocate for making it look bad

candid mica
#

why do you hate ss

#

getting 3 cp per garrote is awesome

haughty lily
#

MA with DD is more relaxing hahah gets the same stuff done

spice surge
#

and also, herodamage is maintainged by primarily rogues

simple meteor
#

hmmm 385 DITB or 370 SS for mythic plus asking here cause sims don't count the restealths any help?

wheat zealot

370 ss

spice surge

So it will always be the most accurate for rogues

wheat zealot
#

100%

fresh ginkgo

no SS opener feels super wierd to me now

haughty lily

mythic+ is ALWAYS ss 😦

simple meteor

i see np

candid mica
#

yeah ss for m+

strange python
#

did u know that ? SS for m+

haughty lily
#

any other logs i can stare at? i dont wanna socialize with the person next to me

paper bough
#

do we tb on cd even with 5 cp

#

if its before an envenom

#

also do i give any weight to the wcl mythic plus statistics that show outlaw reigning supreme above all other rogue specs between 70th and 80th percentile with sub winning out at 90+?

candid mica
#

most m+ aren't logged

#

so no

paper bough
#

i only ask because some of my 385 azerite stuff is better suited to combat

#

i have no 385 SS stuff

#

so im kind of at a stand still until i get some

#

stuck in 370 shit

cold meteor
#

M+ is not only raw dps

paper bough

when my overall is like 380

candid mica

unless you're pushing keys super high just play what you want

all 3 are good

stub all i care about is #1 dps

#

i know thats not the right way to look at it

#

but idc

lament dove
#

370 SS for M+ is good

paper bough
#

take ss over roa right?

#

over err thang i would imagine

lament dove
#

you can take 370 SS over anything 385 for m+

candid mica

^

paper bough
#

my 2 385 pieces are dagger in the back so

#

ill use the Gonk outrunner SS shoulders (370) fetid chest (370 = 2 SS

#

and then my 385 dagger in the back head piece

#

unless 370 swirling sands is better

#

but i doubt it

#

and then for trinkets im working with 380 lustrous plumage, 385 deadeye spyglass, and 365 harlans, fathoms

#

guess which sim highest st

candid mica
#

plumage and spyglass for m+ every time

#

there

paper bough
#

sims tell me fathoms and spyglass

#

but youre prob right cause i can control the usage of plumage

#

is that what you were thinking?

candid mica
#

you can't sim m+

those trinkets are just better in m+ than the others

i do 6 target 40 seconds

@jovial kite you still raiding? or nah

are we running CT this week or no

delicate crater

Sharpened Blades is my best ST trait on helm according to Sims but it just feels bad man when raiding with it. Anyone else use this trait?

spice surge
#

@paper bough Yes, you TB even at 5cp if its ready

fossil tundra
#

Why plumage over gcb?

spice surge
#

Preferably you keep your energy and stay at 3/4 cp but sometimes thats not possible

#

Wasting that 1 or 2 cp is worth as you get a 30% bonus on envenom and you dont delay TB

onyx ferry
#

guys question for you

spice surge
#

(You can think of 1 cp as roughly 20% of an envenom, then its pretty clear that a 30% increased envenom is worth more)

onyx ferry
#

i have 2 370 SS, for mythic + should i go with the 2 or 1 SS and 1 ditb 385?

paper bough
#

2

2xSS

ss ftw

onyx ferry

cool, thx

going from 1 to 2 SS is like getting a birthday cake

that good huh

provided you always get 3 garrotes on the opener

its so hard to sim for m+, my sim says poison bomb does more damage but I end up doing more with CT...whats the general go to build?

the build YOU do more damage with

I dont do damage with any build besad

but i just love pb

tribal marlin

if you want to sim m+ : 1st check out hero damage to have an idea, 2nd sim 5t patchwerk 40sec (60-80sec for big pull fortified) removing buff, 3rd sim 1t patchwerk 2-3mn with lust for bosses

paper bough
#

its just so easy

tribal marlin
#

then with the result make your own idea

paper bough
#

what do i look for on hero dmg

dark crag
#

Does mastery affect double dose?

spice surge
#

It does not

#

Toxic blade does though

desert vault
#

man, Fetid is funny. We have been wiping endlessly on it. Last night, clear trash, one-shot boss, done. So RNG on that fight with add spawns, breath direction, etc.

delicate crater
#

so does anyone use Sharpened Blades for prog?

strange python
#

34% haste with 10th stack of RoA, feels gooood

hollow stone
#

@desert vault makes sense. Thats usually how 1 phase fights go; struggle struggle struggle feel like no prog, then it dies

cerulean depot
hollow stone
#

@delicate crater not by choice but if it sims best w your gear, yes they do

#

Apparently (and i havent confirmed so yknow) dd is phys dmg so is not effected by mastery or tb

spice surge
#

Iirc i think i tried both ingame and with simc but neither got increased

#

But i think it gets the damage buff from tb, or atleast it does in simc

#

Idk though, i could check agian

dark crag
#

In skada it is shown as green for nature dmg

hollow stone
#

Fair. I dont actually know i just member somebody in here saying it was phys

delicate crater
#

SB is like 100dps increase over my second best trait, but it just doesn't seem worth it, and I cant use it in the pull opener

desert vault
#

I just hope Vectis gives me something this week, nothing from Fetid at least Vectis has bracers and head I still need

#

385 SS would have been nice from Fetid though

#

Get my 385 Archive, SS, and DD setup complete and call it a day

spice surge
#

Ok im wrong, simc says DD scales from mastery

#

I remembered it not scaling because i thought it was wierd that it didnt, but apparently it does 🤷

lone junco
#

hoping for some 2DD +Twist scale in 8.1

cerulean depot
#

It is 100% poison damage

lone junco
#

haste to 18% then crit mastery 🤔

desert vault
#

Is there a date for 8.1 yet?

hollow stone
#

Dec 11, i think

spice surge
#

Yes 11/12 december

#

But raid isnt included, raid is either the 9:th or 16:th jan (probably)

velvet kernel
#

11-13

#

Can’t forget about Asia 🙂

desert vault
#

oh ok i was going to say if they were dropping the new raid that quick as well ...

hollow stone
#

Sure we can, it'd just be rude

desert vault
#

jeez MA sims so much higher for me ... I was running it on Fetid and it was alright, but on Vectis SS/Subt has to be better for adds and all that

velvet kernel
#

Not really

lament dove
#

add might die fast so you won't get whole benefit of SS

#

I rather SS boss on Vectis

velvet kernel
#

SS both

desert vault
#

That's true I guess, I dunno I need to run some M+ and I'm not spending anymore money to reforge 😃

#

So SS it is!

velvet kernel
#

I just stay with ss

#

Not just cause it aims higher

#

It’s just less hassle

desert vault
#

Yeah its a pain to swap, its nearly 400 DPS lower than MA, but its w/e really

vale helm
#

Why does TB gain value on aoe when I swap over from poison bomb to tempest? I would assume it to be even better with an extra bleed

fickle idol
#

Odd that nobody discusses the cadence of actions. It seems just as important as rotation to me. I picked up a good chunk of dps lastnight just paying attention to Elaborate Planning buff and trying to only build combo points during it.

vocal wave
cerulean depot

You must have little to no haste

fickle idol

hollow cloud

It gets even worse when you get more haste

stable oxide

not for me

#

I have mastery over haste now

#

statweightwise

cerulean depot

For me mastery, crit and agi are all better than haste

amber arrow

Mastery took over haste for me too but i swapped a haste gem for mastery and my sim went down

ornate mantle
#

hey guys

#

is there a way on herodamage or bloodmallet

#

to check the trinkets at certain ilvl not every ilvl and check everyone?

safe matrix
#

each of the colors represent ilvls

#

so its kinda done already

#

just some visual clutter 🤷

solid nova
#

Or if it's a comparison of your own trinkets, you can just sim the difference for a definitive answer.

ornate mantle
#

mm guess ill have to look for colours O.O

#

thanks! ^^

vocal wave
#

How do you guys use Exsang, do you use it like the opener, and rupture > garrote > rupture > exsang? Or just Rupture > Garrote > Exsang?

#

This is without vanish and vendetta

elder prairie
#

I just make sure rupture and garotte are both at as high a timer as possible

fickle idol
#

at what stat lvl is exsang = tb?

obtuse ruin
#

@tribal marlin whats 5t patchwerk?

strange python
#

@vocal wave Read the guide

dull osprey
#

@fickle idol I was wondering the same thing about the cadence of the fight. Was hoping to hear from some peeps

paper bough
#

yea i need to know too

#

like if i have 20% or higher haste

#

should i ditch tb?

fickle idol
#

In stead of pressing buttons (in the correct order) as soon as there was enough energy to do so I pooled and waited until the energy pool was nearly full. It makes sense given the mechanicso of other dps classes

#

as you "ramp up" you're getting your bleeds out on more things you've poisoned and then getting energy back quicker allowing for the pace to increase as teh fight goes on

wheat zealot
#

Exsang becomes better when it sims higher

dull osprey
#

I've heard from several others that pooling doesn't do anything unless you're running TB

wheat zealot
#

Pooling is unnecessary with any talent build

#

Literally makes 0 dps difference

fickle idol
#

Pooling to use your finisher and quickly build combo points while EP is still up was significantly increasing my dps

vocal wave
#

Guide only really explains the opener but has no other mention of exsang out of that @strange python

wheat zealot
#

Just get bleeds to max pandemic

#

Pop exsang on cd

#

Ez

dull osprey
#

including garrote?

wheat zealot
#

Garrote is a bleed isent it?

#

Lmao

dull osprey
#

I mean, fair point

#

I've been getting conflicting answers before lol

vocal wave
#

Cool like o didn't know if it was worth doing two ruptures to get it to max 31 secs or not

wheat zealot
#

Yeah you want max

dull osprey
#

I was told don't worry about refreshing garrote, just smang a fresh rupt before a exang

#

d\idn't make a lot of sense to me, but I wasn't in anuy position to argue lol

inner pecan
#

that's basically what the sim does @dull osprey

#

afaik there hasn't been any sim where refreshing garrote to full pandemic regardless of time left is a gain

#

safe bet is to refresh Rupture if under 20s and refresh garrote if it's under or close to pandemic

dull osprey
#

So if the Garrote is <=5.4 sec refresh otherwise just refresh rupture and yolo?

#

What if I have 4 cp. Should I garrote to get the 5th point then rupt or just rupt at four for an exang?

dapper wraith
#

Does feint work on the dmg from people room transitioning on Mother?

wait really?

tha fu?

I guess "raid wide" damage is not AoE?

It depends, usually it is considered aoe

I guess I hadn't noticed because I switched to feint over cheat death

helps my heals out a bit

It looks like the construct overcharger buff was updated on raidbots, can anybody confirm?

It is

It’s not posted, it was a stealth buff

Raidbots discord confirms

Haste portion of the trinket was buffed by like ~46%

this info is in the raidbot discord?

You can look at the trinket ingame. This reset it was buffed

@cerulean depot ur sockets and 2x double dose are disgusting

desert vault
#

The sockets are the most awful thing about @cerulean depot 😃

#

I can resim the cleave one and see if it's changed since I got a piece of gear earlier

lone junco
#

@vestal wren I would never use Weekly on purpose. But, im also pretty high on the haste profile, so its probably just not a gain in that current setup. Ill check with my full bank of gear tonight.

strange python
#

Why would even sim cleave

vocal wave
#

I mean you can ignore cleave, the ST is still up there regardless

strange python
#

What is Gale-Force striking

#

Use quick navigation for MH

vocal wave
#

I was using that for my OL since it was simming higher, but as I said before, when I was using enchants and gems suited for Sin at the time, the simmed stat weights didn't change much

#

Haste was still over 0.5 ahead of agi even back then

strange python
#

Have you tried simming Toxic Blade

vocal wave
#

Lemme give that a goi

strange python
#

Also elusiveness 😬

#

Use cheat death

lone junco
#

fun fact. My white crits are like 5500 which is = a rupture tick crit. I guess thats how they planned to keep things balanced.

vocal wave
#

I run elusiveness while out and about because I'm in War Mode

lone junco
#

yay for melee top

lone junco
#

neat

vocal wave
#

Main issue is, do you think these stat weights can translate into poorer than usual dps as Sin, vs OL (where the stats are actually really really good) even on fights where Sin would usually perform better?

strange python
#

Gutripper

lone junco
#

3/3 gutripper

vocal wave
#

Or do you think, regardless of stats, Sin should outperform OL on the fights where it usually does outperform

strange python
#

idk sim it

dull osprey
#

So is the reason exang build sims higher for me because I have high haste and x2 SS?

dense wave
#

This week we realized you can melee Mother through the wall

dull osprey
#

NAni?

vocal wave
#

Yeah you can

hey , i would like to ask between 3 trinkets : 380 Harlan , 380 lustrous , 370 dooms wake ( simdps gives random numbers every sim)

dull osprey
#

idk about random numbers, but I would say harlans and dooms, based on passed experience, but I'm not up to date

strange python
#

if sims are close play what u want

#

but i always like having 1 random proc trinket

dull osprey
#

I know that Harlans is tasty af so I would say the other two are conditiona;

strange python
#

id go lust for vendetta windows

fresh ginkgo
#

Gutripper over OP? O.o

#

Or just on ghuun

dull osprey
#

I don't have a terrible ilvl, why am I so low under some of the other people I've seen

#

is my gear just not optimized correctly?

strange python
#

trash trinkets

dull osprey
#

fair

strange python
#

Traits are okay but there are better

dull osprey
#

Been trying to get a harlans

strange python
#

Get Fathoms

toxic plover
#

I was about to say, I fell into the trap of not switching off SS too

strange python
#

Its not bad

#

Really

#

But Double Dose outsims it with Toxic Blade

dull osprey
#

I haven't gotten any gear that has double does that isn't 15 ilvls below

#

Been looking for it since the nerf

strange python
#

Sharpened Blades, Rezans Fury, Dagger in the back (kinda shitty though)

dull osprey
#

but I've also not be hardcore farming m+

toxic plover
#

I mean 8.1 is coming soon. Traits will change. I wouldn't freak out too much

strange python
#

Change as in what

hollow minnow
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
toxic plover
#

I am assuming 😛

strange python
#

There are like only 2 new traits to sin coming

#

And some of the current ones are going to scale with versa

#

Which will make them a little bit better

toxic plover
#

I can't imagine that more PTR builds won't happen, but then again, 8.1 is a month away

dull osprey
#

@strange python So I should keep my eye out for 370 level DD gear to replace SS/exang build and replace my shite trinkets asap?

strange python
#

Yes

dull osprey
#

Thanks for the help! ^_^

frank haven
#

does anyone have a recomendation for a WA that helps you refresh garrote/rupture on singletarget? on my hunter I used to have a WA that would light up when it was time to use dire frenzy to maximize the uptime. is there something similar for assass ?

vestal stump
#

!wa

With some of the changes made to WA in BFA, it’s incredibly simple to make your own auras for tracking DoT timers too.

#

why does it make a difference on which dagger I put my crit and my haste enchant?

strange python
#

how much of a difference is it

crisp gate
#

congrats @prime stirrup

south breach
#

100 dps

strange python
#

Link

#

Link the sim

prime stirrup
#

Your mainhand is less likely to miss its target, which should mean more procs from enchant. Placing your highest stat weighted enchant on mh is always the right move

south breach
#

so basically I can just switch daggers?

lone junco
#

Dont put the small ilvl in main hand

prime stirrup
#

I would leave highest ilvl dag on mh. youre wep dps should be something like 10-12 dps per ilvl which is more valuable than the socket

lone junco
#

385 socket is huge, but 390 is more dmg in main hand.

#

my 355 socket beats 370 non, for offhand.

#

which is depressing

prime stirrup
#

Run a stat weight sim, you will see how valuable wep ilvl is in mh vs oh. Its very large, like 11 dps vs 1.5 ish on off hand

lone junco
#

right

#

in cleave it is even more skewed. 24 mh 0.9oh

strange python
#

The difference is literally

#

3dps

#

It doesn't matter in which hand u got the enchants

wheat zealot
#

Yeah the difference could just be chalked up to simulation error

#

Its exactly the same

strange python
#

Nah he just did it wrong

south breach
#

what did I do wrong in my sim?

wheat zealot
#

I mean the 3 dps difference

prime stirrup
#

It absolutely could be that @strange python

wheat zealot
#

Its just sim variance

strange python
#

Indi

prime stirrup
#

nothing, all sims have a margin of error

strange python
#

His difference was 150dps or so

#

But you know why?

#

Because he compared his 385socketed offhand to 385 no socket

wheat zealot
strange python
#

So there is no difference

empty lintel
#

anyone got a link for some rogue macros i dont feel like making my own

strange python
#

What macros

empty lintel
#

specifically for pvp i have all 3 blind macros uh step kick etc

#

just want to see if theres any im missing

south breach
#

thanks @strange python for the sim 😃

strange python
#

sure

empty lintel
#

thanks

strange python
#

dang 384 ilvl

#

with my guild thats impossible

pseudo hamlet
#

Just got 2x Scalpel 370ilvl(normal loot and bonus roll) from the MOTHER after wearing 345 ilvl daggers since we started doing that raid. 😄

strange python
#

using 355 dagger from zul and 350 from +4 freehold

haughty lily
#

is there an out of invis opener that is most optimal?

#

like for fetid i need to open on adds not starting from invis

#

do i just gar anyway? or just start from vanish?

strange python
#

that make no sense for me

haughty lily
#

for fetid you save 2 min cd's until adds. i cant start from invis but i have all my cds up and full energy ussually.

#

when i go to add phase

#

ill just find someones logs dw

strange python
#

@haughty lily Zed says he misses you 😦

haughty lily
#

UH...WHO?

#

plz tell me that isnt the Mitch disc

strange python
#

😄

rustic zinc
#

@haughty lily 💋

harsh sphinx
spice surge
#

The difference is 3 dps

#

Which means that its within the error range (0.05%) so if you run the sim again it can show 3 dps the other way

#

Anything that close is essentially equal

harsh sphinx
#

got ya, thx

lone junco
#

ignore the player error while we are at it. cause that is just depressing.

hollow stone
#

@haughty lily your opener would only change if youre running subterfuge, otherwise its the same

#

And yes, you would vanish if youre dpsing the mass

#

Which would make it the same opener

haughty lily
#

ight sounds good thanks 😃

topaz notch
#

my stat weighs rn is Haste

2.02

Agility

1.89

Critical Strike

1.81

#

how can i sim same dps with crit enchant on rings as with haste enchant if thats my simmed stat weight?

lone junco
#

Fun fact:

did you know. stat weights are "Additional" stats.

so when you take away Crit enchant and add Haste enchant, that is not using stat weights.

#

Top gear tool has enchant buttons at the bottom, to swap all from crit to haste.

twilit elk
#

so when it comes to M+ the goal is to get high crit and mastery, then on trash pulls, im assuming get garrote on 3 targets then rupture on as many while maintaining crimson tempest

delicate crater
#

do people still run Subterfuge without SS?

dusty wigeon
#

y

#

i believe so

fluid drift
#

yeah i do - MA and subterfuge sim the same for me without SS, so I take subterfuge so I can vanish garrote adds for extra damage (the thought being that subterfuge scales better than MA for multi target)

delicate crater
#

thats where I am: Subt and MA simming within .01 of each other but it's telling me to use a 375 Poison Wire item over a 370 SS

fluid drift
#

how much dps diff? might be worth just using SS for better aoe/cleave value

polar cape
#

The one time I speced MA and none of my envenom crit in the windows I knew I was done with it.

dusty wigeon
#

idk if this is a question allowed or of relevance but whenis the best time to use Vnedetta on G'huun Mythic?

strange python
#

Use it when he comes out

#

And then whenever the 2nd beam

#

is activated

dusty wigeon
#

on pull?

#

or just save it

strange python
#

You can use on pull too yeah

#

Pull on the young something

#

Then when Ghuun comes out

#

And then when the 2nd beam is activated which brings ghuun to 20%

dusty wigeon
#

think he'll die too quick if i focuz the young

strange python
#

Then vendetta on the small worms or something

dusty wigeon
#

Alright, thanks man

strange python
#

But its just padding

#

On phase 1

dusty wigeon
#

im just running and dodging xD

#

wish it was adds all phases for ct

strange python
#

I usually just sign up to run orbs on ghuun

hidden anchor
#

anyone here good with logs? i'm a warrior main with some ass rogue questions. would love someone to DM me who is.

strange python
#

Because I dont like phase 1

pastel vault
#

@dusty wigeon don't do that

#

Vendetting the 3rd beam that brings him to 20% is very bad, you need vendetta for lust p3

dusty wigeon
#

so whats the plan? 😄

pastel vault
#

On pull, when 2nd beam happens (1st in p2) and in last phase

dusty wigeon
#

aight ty 😄

#

what about vanish?

#

the same i guess?
