nice, i feel sufficiently welcomed and represented
mostly just see you and Fuu being all...euro
Over Shadows/Shadowblades its a fairly even ratio overall
Yeah, well im here 12+ hours a day so i'll fall into each time zone π
Come discuss in #off-topic 
question - is it worth having 2 Shrouded suffocation ? i noticed that when i have 2 of them i still end up getting the same points as if having only 1 - is that dmg worth keep two ?
Hi, I have a question, when am I supposed to use exsanguinate? I mean not in opener but in normal rotation, is it good to just refresh rupture and then exsanguinate with like 50% garrote duration?
no refresh both dots
Simc doesnt refresh garrote
Unless garrote is like sub 5 itβs not worth
And only rupture if its below 22 iirc (could be 21 or 20)
^^
Maybe because the APL is wrong
And it wasnt a gain when i changed it
π€·
Have they fixed the 4th garrote with shrouded suffocation bug? I haven't been fallowing assa for quite a bit so I must've missed it
they fixed like 1 months ago prob.
get Fathoms trinket + GCB
this is my dps atm
2dd + archive has bis sim
no SS ?
TB ?
ill wait till you catch up.
got more without

rezans for ilvl ? cause it isnt good.
Does it sim higher?
lets see
isnt fathoms > either of those trinkets
Prob equal to them, my 375 dice is slightly better than fathoms
could use like 3-4 more sockets tbh.
idk. we have same dps. im 369. its probably traits, trinkets, sockets.
I have 6 sockets now π
Ok so I can have
Double double dose on chest and head
with archive on shoulder
you think it will be better ?
Sim
If you swap to master assassin+tb+pb prob yes, go to topgear and sim it
ill reset azerit and sim, give me sec
dont actually reset
You dont need to reset them inganme
use Top gear
Just go to topgear
my azerit is prob back down to 20g/
have so many sets. all 370
its actually on my head
Then its right there at the top no?
this is an old string for myself. but it should look liek this
currently have like 3 more 370s for each slot.
when you do a block like this. set it to smart sim. Pick realistic traits, then pick Exang/Tb + Suberfuge/Ma
youll never be able to select all your rings and shit with a large selection of traits.
I have premium
π
still limited
yeah
i normally do all my ST azerites, of max level. 3 rings. 4 trinkets. and the Exang/Tb + Suberfuge/Ma
less shitty
most of that was pb
now keep that azerite set. and pick up all your trinkets
and MA/Subterfuge
@solid lava try simming with MA.
its not going to matter much. likely 0.0% change
il try, doing SOTS +11 in the same time
With two DD mines about 200 higher
is there any secret to the shark boss? or is he just aids
gl. afk work.
@brittle pawn are you having trouble with the Freehold boss in M+ or am I missing something?
the only secret i know for sharkboss is to use cloak if a shark targets you
coz its nature damage
other than that its just move out for the tornado and go big dick between the tornado casts
Or just run away from it....
pffft thats a dps loss xD
Shadowstep a ranged and laugh
I mean, dying is a bigger dps loss then stepping away
I'm 19flat with subt, 19.2 with ma
Yeah the other rogue gave me those shoulders
huh my 385 shoulders dont show on the top gear thing
and ive had them equiped for over a week now
same with my 385 helm
and chest for that matter
:/ hmmm
is raidbots allergic to showing 385 azerite pieces ?
its only not showing in top gear though when i go to quick sim it shows i have my 385s equipped
I'm bummed Poisoned Wire is being removed.
thats so confusing :/
anyone know why or is able to help me sort this out ? cant seem to sim top gear reliably if its not showing all 3 of my 385 azerite pieces in there

@hard cove yes its easy, if you have the addon, in your game type /simc
copy the string
and import him on topgear
in the case : Paste input from the SimulationCraft addon
import it*
I see many rogues playing with exsang on M vectis, any reason? Better to burst down the add I guess?
probably higher ST sims with exsang, and an environment where add-damage is not a concern
for progression you definitely want to try to play TB tho
assa provides pretty great damage on add if played right
it's not for progression we killed it while ago. I just wanna min max my dps, I don't often play assa so I don't really understand why this talent is taken over TB
big yikes
Hey guys! I have a question. Im using raidbots to compare two diffrent azerite setups. 1 with double shrouded and 1 with no shrouded. Raidbots tells me the one with no shrouded is better and when i simulate it myself it tells me the on with double shrouded is better. Which is more reliable? Picture shows the raidbot comparison.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/bchsvj4oZfJDvsbckx7o4d yay in the 18k dps bracket π
thats with 2x SS traits too xD
https://i.imgur.com/277kTCc.png raidbots why
I was getting that too @dark token lol
@strange python youre missing out on 1k dps just because you arent at 10 array stacks tbh

do you guys use mutilate at 4cp open world or nah?
question if i already have bleeds on targets then pop my galecallers will that make the bleeds tick faster or do i have to reapply after popping gcb for it to count for them ?
Open world or not, doesnt change rotation.
waste of energy
cause system shock

aight
anyone know if popping gcb after applying bleeds affects the bleeds or do i have to use it before applying ?
it affects the bleeds dynamically (After works)
the only exception is exsang
which takes a snapshot of your stats before the exsang
so you want to pop potions and galecallers before exsang
im not sure if exsang takes a snapshot of vendetta tho, i think that may still dynamically update if you vendetta after exsang for whatever reason
i usually do pop my cds + trinkets before exang anyway
Guys how safe is using matrix in M+. Have 3 SS pieces and Sim says that replacing one with matrix is 2% dps gain. Will I regret when face random sudden pulls?
random bodypulls or chainpulls would favor archive, not SS
And what is best way to sim m+ environment? Patchwerk x5 40s?

Can you macro gcb then exsang together as long as gcb is first in the macro?
I did and I understand using gcb on CD, I mean to ask will exsang pick up the gcb haste if they are macroed together for the uses where they line up with each other.
Yes it will
Thank you
what talents for m ghuun?
@zinc furnace use triple SS instead of matrix for m+
if all the same ilvl
archive is ok, much better than matrix
but SS is godtier
matrix doesnt scale on aoe and pulls stuff so i would never use it
even if the matrix was higher ilvl
oh damn, i actually didnt read that it was matrix, not archive. lel. never play matrix, it pulls random shit all the time.
They fixed it, but still dont use it
When you say matrix was a 2% increase was that a single target sim?
why would u ever use FK to get from 4 cp to 5 cp lmao
FK costs less and deals more dmg
@civic locust you're missing out on 1k+ dmg simply by not having an uldir trait
honestly your opener and a lot of the rotation seems fine.
i realized that after first boss
hi all any one can help me to optimized my dps overall in mythique +
use SS trait + subterfuge, garrote 3 targets, keep ruptures on all targets
its pretty simple
what is ss trait
Shrouded Suffocation
Shrouded suffocation
ok ty
any one have a guid mythique + for what i have to burst in dungeon and any astuce to upgrade dps
A lot of that comes down to running the dungeons enough to know what mobs need to be nuked
It also depends on what's infested and what isn't, CC, etc
A good place to start is the pinned guide for assassination. It covers things like your opener depending on what traits and talents you have (and it changes quite a bit for certain talent/trait/trinket combos).

Should i be playing sin with exanguinate or sub for fetid progression?
Both work. Sin you need to juggle CDs. I use Vend, Exsang on opener, Vanish Exsang first adds, Vend Exsang pot 2nd adds, vanish Exsang heroism 3rd adds

Toxic Bomb this week in m+? My team kinda lacks ST dmg, but is fine with aoe. We play mostly with dh, balance druid and prot pala
Should always try to run crimson tempest, poison bomb is lack luster in M+. Your ST will suck regardless of running poison bomb or CT if the boss dies before your second set of CDs.
Hey, on mythic mother should sin rogue be one of last to go through cuz we canβt burst adds super quick?
Usually yeah @quaint frost
Cheers, was chosen to go first group this week wasnβt comfortable at all
so i currently am using the fetid chest piece but i have archive chosen as it is my only uldir piece. My helm and shoulders have SS. Think i should respec chest for M+ only? or would the gold just add up too fast
i disagree think you should play CT on fortified only in motherloed/freehold
same on tyra
@strange python dh and balance lack of st?)
Dropped socketed shard in bt in last couple of tw week. Im fine ;D
thing is poison bomb is purely efficient dps and then ct is mostly pad dps
and doesnt really speed up the run
thats how i feel at least
even on 6 targets ct vs psn bomb is not that far off
@lethal heart seems like not rly different coz someone someone plsy ct someon pb even in wf last weeks
Thatβs if pb procs
because difference isnt that big
@lethal heart β€
π
even if you push highest keys
you can do them as outlaw
even stuff like 18 kings rest that is top 10-5 world
@solar rose 
you can do taht stuff with outla hwrogue
just noone plays that because its just stupid to play around his cds (cant plan around them really)
all three rogue specs are good for M+ imo
Thats why i love rogue like main in bfa more and more ;D
Assassin is the most consistent/reliable though, Sub does shine in certain affixes/dungeons however
Imagine how dh spam 3 buttons all day
idk, i beam is pretty satisfying
hence why sin is the most reliable
My ibeam always have no animation in the middle of cast -_-
sub does get that new trait that might give it some cleave, but idk it could just end up being garbage
Sin also gets a new Fok trait that could go well with ss
Have some hope on new first dance for st atleast
i'm sad tornado is op on Zul, talent should be replaced but because it is good in one fight on one difficulty, it convinces blizz that it is a good talent
oh yeah, sub is also getting shuriken combo nerfed, not a good sign for M+
@lethal heart with 1.2 k haste on ptr, why no
haste is booty for M+
@fleet whale talking about raids too
well, in that case it sounds good, could be nerfed though
Sometimes tired to 400 times pull boss in 1 spec ;D
@fleet whale and this is just 1 /3 trait that gives u brutal amount of haste for standart low haste m+ build. Faster bosses kills maybe , why no
Don't think sub needs too much of a buff. It's played a ton in high keys
all 3 specs make me fall asleep
except for that 777 roll the bones thats like adrenaline to the heart
rogues are good in m+ but honestly it's suuuuper boring
I guess you havent played demon hunter, I really enjoy rogue
getting declined on your warrior is even more boring π€
pruning too strong
fury feels so fun to play
a little unfortunate arms performs better
but i've played every melee this expansion so far and the only thing worse than rogue in terms of fun is enhancement.
but it's my main and I love it all the same.
Yo guys, I only have 2 raid azerite pieces, should I use 2 archive or 1 archive one SS?
@rich crow sim, but 1 ss generally will be better. Coz 3 cp
anyway u play subterfuge in u ilvl
some assassin rogue here good at zek'voz mythic? im logging grey, embarassing AF
@topaz notch try to hold vanish and tripple garrote silithids ;D at least this gives u blues;)
but the thing is, since its 2 min between those adds i always save it for that xD i can change 385 shoulders with meh traits tho for 360 shoulders with SS so i get 2x SS, might be a good idea?
Nope, ss damage is not a thing if u have grey. Maybe link some logs?
well we cant get him down, and it feels like i dont rly contribute when im that low
@topaz notch if not look too close - 4 vendettas 7 exsg in a 9 min fight.
You're 2nd on Boss dmg and 3rd on caster add in that pull, even if your parse is grey (as is almost everyone elses) rest assured you're contributing fine/well at least
Your opener is not good though
yeah well not sure wich pull that was, tanks moved him arround likemaniacs some pulls
Check ravenholdt assa guide for the opener
Make sure, especially in opener / vendetta, to exsang FULL dots
its this pull
ah so u mean mutilate -> rupture after second garrote?
yeah, after the vendetta
you did it on some pulls, but ur opener is sort of all over hte palce
if tanks moving is an issue
better to delay your opener by a few sec than to mess it up
can prepop sprint and u should be fine chasing boss tho tbh
hmm thats true i guess, is exang in general a good choice for that fight?
Not sure if theres a major difference TB vs Exs cause of the fight itself
Which 2 trinkets should i be hunting for with shrouded & archieve? Pref m+ trinkets & say their ilvl was 370-380. Which ones would you spam dungs for (the best 2 trinkets comp) :b
Galecaller and Harlan's I guess
It's always nice to have them
Galecaller gives pretty nice damage buff for group 4+
@fickle viper well i thank you for your pointers! will try to get my opener in order!
Re-read the guide on the site to freshen ur memory on stuff
Any tips for Vectis mythic? I don't enjoy 56 ilvl perfo :/
keep add spawn timers in mind w.r.t holding CP for rupture
Thanks
am i right that FoK spamming is only if there are 4 or more targets?
Isn't it 3+?
exsanguinate / toxic blade for raid? 
sim it
lmao just did heroic mother zerg strat and peaked at 58k in my burst xD
finnished on 19k only though D:
If you have 5 combo points and toxic blade coming off cooldown is it best to Toxic blade (overcap) envenom or envenom then toxic blade ooorrrr envenom mutilate mutilate toxic blade and delay toxic blade by a few seconds ??
Env and then toxic
How many envenoms should i be doing inside tox blade?
2 to 3
2-3
TB on cd
does weapon ilvl matter for MH or OH ?
yeah but it matters for both
Can't be like it matters only for MH or OH
You always equip the higher ilvl on ur MH
Yep, but comparative value is a big deal when optimizing. 365 socket oh might beat 370 oh
365 w/ socket will always beat 370 oh
for M+, do i still have to use 3x SS regardless of ilvl? i have some 370-385 pieces but they dont have SS
so now im using 340's lol
Iβm running 1x SS and 2 Dd
Ilvl 15 I thought was rule of thumb
Could be wrong tho would like someone elseβs input
is there a place to find rankings of traits for M+ specifically? i was always told to 100% use 3x ss regardless of ilvl
but if theres a 25-35 ilvl diff, maybe i can use a diff one for more hp
Hi everyone. I have problem with my Energy management have you some tips ?
@subtle dew what is ur problem?
I'm often out of energy, I think I spam too much but no idea if I should cast mutilate only with a certain amount of energy
Spending is fine, but you should be somewhat pooling energy at certain points depending on what talents you run
So if I understand, I should let my character regain energy before a TB for exemple.
Should be spending a bit less aggressively when youre closing in on tb going off cd yes, to maximize damage in that window
if you run toxic blade you can pool energy to make sure you get two 4/5 combo point envenoms off
Stack up 5 CPs before it goes off, and then pool some as an example
also if you use vanish to reapply an empowered garrote, make sure to get to 50 energy first, so you dont stand there in stealth for a second
Then tb, 5cp envenom, and have energy to quickly get up to that
Yeah, ive done that mistake in m+ several times
same
Wanting to vanish to silence a cast, but not having energy
Sometimes ive even vanished with garrote on cd
Proper rogueplays
Ok thanks for the answers guys I'm going train this so.
i saw flawless running exsang before. is that the go to? or is it dungeon specific
EX is usually the winner in M+
is there a clear winner between bomb/tempest?
Bomb when you are under 4/5 targets most of the time or the adds die too quickly.
If you are not 100% on how you should be using CT, just use Bomb instead.
i like ez
Nothing easier than Poison Bomb π
sounds like tempest isnt for pug life
the basic guideline is, if you can get value out of CT, use it, otherwise, go PB instead
are the daggers from warfront better then the standard ones from mythic 0, like the tol dagor ones?
and for newcomers id always suggest starting out with PB, and if you're finding yourself with excess CP that you dont really spend on anything else but envenoms, you might want to look into swapping to CT to further improve your DPS a bit
Weapon DPS and stats are the things that matter, where they are from doesn't.
so do you CT on anything greater than 1 target after ruptures are out?
is toxic blade something I use in place of mutilate, or just something to keep the debuff on as much as possible?
it has a 25s cd bud
more ppl on so ill ask my question again - i have 340 ilvl SS pieces for M+, but 370-385 pieces with other traits. is it worth it to use others like rezan's or twist the knife that are higher ilvl? or is it standard to always use 3x SS
can raidbots sime that accurately?
For raids yes for the most part.
Check RIO for popular traits otherwise.
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
that's probably your best bet to discover if a pc of gear is better than
@ebon prism use only 1 SS for M+. U can sim which is the best item u can choose for SS, and use the other, higher Ilvl items for main stat
watching flawless rn with 385x2 340 all SS
For exp I have 385 chest 385 shoulder 375 head (laser matrix). After sim I had to use my 340SS shoulder for the trait.
LM also isn't very good as it can cause pulling issues.
@civic palm yeah wsnted to write
@unkempt solstice chest ruinous bolt, shoulder Idk its name, bur for dmg abilities its drop a shinning orb wich gives me mastery If I remember well
Have all 3 pieces of SS (340) and the listes above. So SimC made this setup for me
so that's optimal right now, is all 3 SS.
interesting. thx for the info
@unkempt solsticeno. Ill show u what gear simc made for me.
problem is you can't really sim for m+
unless you do like 30s fights with 5 bosses and no raid cds or something
Yeah that's why I mentioned checking RIO for popular trends with traits.
3-5 target, lightly novement, 40 sec

Best horde race for rogue? Thought I heard Blood elf sims best
Yo can I link my logs here for a critique? The other rogue in the raid has comparable ilvl but ends up doing consistently more dmg than me. He runs SSx1, Dagger and Archive with no gales and TB instead of Exsang.
Exsang always sims higher for me
race is such a miniscule difference
I run SX2 and Archive with Exsang and a 370 Gales
LOL @brittle pawn do orcs look good in leather for rogue/
Feeling Good == Doing Good
the aoe silence is lit too i heard
Whatβs everyone average dps wise in M+ and ST raid?
@smoky tulip go for it
I'm Draeznor
There were some attempts I was able to keep up. But most of the time I lagged behind. Just wondering what you guys think about the disparaity. Does it come down to Exang/Gales favoring shorter fights?
and does TB outshine Exsang on longer fights? When Exsang and Vanish were coming off cd, I would hold a few seconds to be able to Vanish Garr both add and boss to exsang
Which I thought would be awesome, it seems not so much
I have compared out dmg on most attempts and it seems most of the time (when I didn't derp) the difference in dmg could equate to his abilities hitting harder during his TB window ie I always beat him in Garr dmg, but his Envenoms and dealy poisons and BP would always beat me
Or am I just bad and need to learn to play π
Thanks for any help you can give
He's stacking mastery too, which I just noticed
my only input is if you hold vanish for the second add you can get some nice pad going https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/YDdkqx8RGy14rH7j#fight=13&type=casts&source=22&view=timeline
you wanna get 3 off in total. 2 on priority target (add) not just vanish garrote both
how good is the blood elf racial for pve?
its mvp for m+, especially in underrot and tol dagor. only real raid use is zul adds. but thats negated if you have priests. even if you dont have priests, most guilds wouldnt have a melee run out to torrent them
also in kings rest. you can cloak and run into the voidlings to avoid fear, and arcane torrent to kill them all.
oh thats kinda nice. but i feel like that is pretty minor still
yeah youre right. but no racial is anything super
undead racial is π doesnt work on any charms and mcs
faction change to NE ezpz
i think the 1% crit is better for aoe, but the haste thing from trolls is better for single target
@inner pecan yeah i like the crit % but i just like how the undead looks so much more then all the rest
its just so hard to make a good mog for undead in my experience
play panda xd
Female orc
do male belf look good? cuz female belf looks good but idk if i can play as a female and like it as much

I dislike male BE but its all about preference
just be a weeb and play female belf
I like undead male the best and ive been playing that since vanilla
dude female belf might be one of best models ive seen
yeah male belf idk... its not amazing to me
I just switch every few months. Was be until bfa prepatch then undead until like 3 weeks ago
Now troll until zandalari propably
Looks alright with my mog tbh
Thing with male BE is that all thoose naughty transmog usually done on female work well with male be -)
Anyone have or know of a WA to track subterfuge buffed garrotes?
Is this BiS list accurate? : https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/assassination-rogue-pve-dps-gear-best-in-slot
Probably not.
Sockets mess stuff up a lot.
I actually use most of that gear.
Trinkets are garbage tho.
Zul shoulder. Fetid chest. 2x mother weps.
All that stuff is good.
Fathoms beats the brain trinket
In general within uldir, it's best to have one archive and 2x DD? The reason herodamage/bloodmallet values archive so heavily is just bc it weighs the trait with the 750 stat buff as well right?
Yeah they put nice x5's and x10's next to them to make sure you know how many stacks they are looking at.
Ss is better in general than dd, dd only wins in pure st
solid, yeah blanked on SS for a sec there lol
I play one ss one archieve and one dd
Sims best for me
From items I have
Although I saw dd is better when stacked
I sim for 18.350
With 382equipped
Mizerok Garrote multi targert tracker will show me number of garrotes I have applied?
I always wonderes. What 'ST' means?
Single target
Ty
@winter gale Will show number of Garrotes that you have applied to targets, yes.
Thanks for the info. Do u have any suggestion if there is any else significant addon or wa for mythoc plus
?*
Maybe same thing that will track number of ruptures I have
On adds
I only use WA's for specific boss mechanics, no packages or anything as I have timers from BigWigs for that.
There's a Rupture tracker on WAGO as well.

Thank you alot
NP if there are questions about any of that mess just send me a message here and not on that website I don't check those messages > _>
hey guys im not getting into the 18 club π is my itemlevel just to low?
well im kinda mastery heavy bc im doing lot of m+
So if you're gearing for AoE, you're ST sim is going to suffer isnt it π
my ilvl is 375 and im on 17.4 dps
Not bad.
I'm 369 at 17.0.
And that's with a ton of sockets.
Each 10 ilvl is about 1000 dps.
ye thats true to. But when i go m+ 10x array isnt there
i hate stacking 100tons of gear xD
M+ is Crit mastery.
I have sets for both. No reason not to. Scrapper is complete rubbish.
well raidbots still confuses me
it says 5 min patchwerk fight 17.4 dps . we were doing Mother mythic and i did 20.8k dps am i simming wrong?
mother has a damage boost in the last room
Im new to rogue and im confused with the stats i should aim for m+
i thought we need haste-crit for single target
and crit-mastery for multi
for m+ that is
okay im just stupid lol.
@red portal that's pretty much correct yes
@red portal that's about right
so i guess i need 2 sets depending on affixes
not necessarily, generally you can focus on +ilvl primarly for m+
and for equal ilvl items prioritize crit/mastery
there's always a good amount of multi-target in every dungeon regardless of affixes
seems like the multi target dmg is more important to me so far
just get some haste rings and you should be ok for tyranical weeks
ive gone up to 10-11 though
@red portal haste provides raw energy. We cap e in cleave with a few ruptures out. So it becomes trash stat.
Crit scales cp gain from FOK.
Mastery buffs the actual bleed cleave
But. With anything m+. There are 1t 3t 6t 10t pulls. So we pick something to focus on.
Sin is best at the 2-6t range from SS alone.
Thank you all for your info!
There is nothing in the guide about using the next exang after burst. Do you want to save it untill you refresh ur dots and then use? mby save it with galecallers? whats the logik, im having trouble understanding the basics of how exang works overall ":D"
@queen fjord
How do I use Galecallers Boon?
-With Toxic Blade: On cooldown
-With Exsanguinate: Do NOT hold exsang for every galecaller. Use them seperately on cooldown with the exception of the third galecaller use, which you want to delay to line up with vendetta+vanish+exsang at around 2.25
As pinned, should cover what you need.
Cheers. whatabout normal use of exang out of cooldown windows? after i have refreshed dots? so they have as muhc duration as possible?
Guys
I use 1st vanish when garrote runs out since i have ss trait. Do I line up 2nd vanish with Vendetta or?
@queen fjord Refresh rupture under 20, garrote in pandemic range
Cheers!
What do I do with 2nd vanish to make my question more precise
thats answers my question well, so its worth to refresh rup
@queen fjord Ill update the pins to include that as its pretty frequent question π
Nice π
Richard can u help with my question too :)
@winter gale Yes, you'd ideally want to line it up with vendetta/racial/2nd pot etc
Thank you. I also want to make sure my garrote and rupture are good on time before using Vendetta toxic blade and things?
Also, do I go Vendetta/Vanish/Toxic Blade or?
And maybe envenom and then 2 garrotes for full cp ?
I am doing very well apart from this part where I get a bit lost arround what to do prev and after vanish
Vanish TB/TB Vanish is minimal difference
I think we simmed it a while back at 30 dps variance :S
Nothing, yes
You can check the APL for the sequenced rotation breakdown as well as warcraflogs cast sequences for fight specific uses, should they vary
Only so much i can check at work π
Ya
Complete and detailed listing of all Azerite Traits available for Rogues. Updated for each World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth beta build.
There's a third one that is alliance only.
There is none from emissaries though only Worldboss and Dungeon and 2x Questline which is Limited to 300 ilvl i think
Do you think that new echoing blades trait coupled with master assassin and hidden blades might be a new way to go for dungeons like boralus or shrine?
How do we sim for mythic guhun?
only p3 dps matter on ghuun
Full st then?
yes
Ok ty
You do pass phase 2 with 2 matrix so there is no point on maximizing burst like it could be in hc
@solid nova wait, they dont pay you for moderating ravenholdt??? I DEMAND JUSTICE
Whow long does p3 last?

Thanks
New to rogue. Can you guys explain what to do after opener. GRGven/mutilate/R/ ex/ vanish GG. My dps goes from 15k to 8 and stays there. Idk if Iβm doing something wrong maintaining bleeds. 360 iLvl doing 8k in H Uldir is depressing
Ah no I donβt do that after I let them fall off
Forgot to put that
So is it a gear issue?
Or stats?
Iβll post one hold up
maybe he is left handed
Even ur rotation is pretty bad looking at taloc
U waste so many cp
And u don't double garrote after vanish
But start from keeping up ur bleeds and from not wasting ur cps
Ok cool. So after opener. Just maintain bleeds and use vend/ macro with lions guileβs and Exsanguinate on cd?
I appreciate the help
Also hold your 2nd vendetta for vanish
I'm a little confused on how simc and pawn are suppose to work. I start by stat weighing on Raidbots and it tells me what my upgrades are suppose to be in my bags, according to Pawn. Now after I equip my upgrades, because its new gear, I have to update my stat weights. So again through Raidbots I run the stat weights and when I enter them into pawn it just tells me to equip the rings that I had on before.
@silent flare thereβs a top gear tool on raidbots that will sim gear vs each other and give you your best combination
I know i use it often but isnt that based off your current stat weights?
No, it essentially equips a set of gear, sims it, gets the result, equips the next set of gear, sims it, result, etc. until every combination has been used
And then spits out a list of the results
you sure you do 2garrote out of vanish ? I usually do only 1 since I most of the time already have 1 garrote ticking
so it's in pandemic anyway
1 is fine as long as you have pandemic
yes ofc
I was wondering : this change on ptr is it just an visual updates (for tooltip to actually show correct numbers) or a real upgrade ?
live
If you're running Shrouded Suffocation and Subterfuge, you ALWAYS let your empowered garrotes fall off, then revanish, then re-garrote twice. You double garrote so the second vanish-empowered garrotes are full pandemic length, and you let the other ones drop off so they get their full buffed duration
And as far as I can tell both SS and Double Dose are getting that modifier, same damage base damage but they scale with versatility
Its an upgrade. They are changing the way alot of traits work so they scale off of vers.
ok so it's just a visual update so tooltip show correct numbers
Its not an upgrade
well I was pretty sure they were already scaling with vers so I guessed it was just a visual update
It already scales
Its just so that the tooltip updates now
Instead of being static
ok ok good thing
Ofc they're not gonna buff our best trait by 40%
does it scale with mastery ?
Hahaha makes sense i guess
stupid question sorry I guess not
Mastery increases yhe damage of bleeds so i guess so in a way
I don't know, it could be possible (even very probable) that mastery applies before SS, and SS damage are just added flat
I'm pretty sure Mastery doesn't buff SS
but actually I did tests since I'm NE i can apply SS without subterfuge and it increase the tick from 1500 to 3000 (with 2 trait)
If it was only empowered by versa, numbers won't fit
Has anyone gotten SS trait from the emissary boxes yet?
alright cool, im just losing the rng game.
fetid chest maybe ?
Already have it. Wanting to run x3 in m+
unsure if i want to use 2x340 and one 385 to get the x3.
385 archive :D?
haha. sadly no luck on shoudlers
but i do have a 370 one
not sure 2 archive and 1 ss is comparable to 3x deadshot outlaw for 10-13 keyss
try both and see I think it should be quite the same between 345 ss and 370 archive for the 3rd
give it a bash - cheers π
I can confirm that SS scales with mastery
just did somes test (all with same amount of versa = 5%, no enchant no proc) :
[29% mastery] Simple garrote : 1510 / meld+garrote 2977
[58% mastery] Simple garrote : 1680 / meld+garrote 3468
If you take the difference the SS bonus is like 300 more with the mastery build :3 (edit : this with with 2*SS 375)
or maybe it's something else but it definitly scale with something else than versa
you didnt need to test it, it was stated at the very beginning that mastery will scale with bleeds now
No you don't get it
if azerite trait scales with mastery
it's a good news.
I know it scales with bleed, but it doesn't mean it have to scale with azerite traits
People have already know that
the ss azerite is just added on top of your bleed damage
what you are seeing is the bleed scaling not the ss scaling
a lot of people tells me that they doesn't, or they shouldn't or they don't think it does etC...
no because the difference is also increase, not only the base damage. If SS wasn't scaling, the difference should remain the same
Frost dks mastery affects tidal surge damage because it is considered frost, not sure if thats the same case here but theres certain traits that scale with mastery for some specs
But rezans fury is bleed damage and doesnt scale with our mastery same with dagger in the back i think
So dont think ss would either
https://ptr.wowhead.com/spell=286121/replicating-shadows
This is why I wonder how mastery does work with azerite
it shouldnt I am saying what you tested just now shows that yes your bleeds does scale up based on mastery
if this trait scale on mastery, it could be very op even in ST
I have used both same SS piece and yes the non-empowered garrote damage in increase
but if you take difference Empowered - Base = SS bonus
it should be the same but it's not.
And for the sub trait it's 1500 damage at 385 ilvl, since mastery grow extremly quick with subtely, this could deal a large amount of damage if it scales on mastery
I have used both same SS piece and yes the non-empowered garrote damage in increase (yes non empowered garrote = normal garrote,..... yes it scales with mastery)
why are you even mentioning sub...
I'm not telling that my garrote deal more damage with mastery, I'm telling that the difference Empowered - Base = SS bonus is scaling with mastery
nvm forget about it
I dont know why it even matters
btw if you vanish garrote you would do more damage than your meld garrote
Lol
I tested with Meld because I didn't want to have subterfuge bonus applied
for your "test"
So I had only SS bonus not subterfuge
I'm hyped for 3x ss in 8.1 :)
either way there is no way for you to test scaling of it since any added mastery you are just scaling your own bleed
@spice surge can't you get that now?
well, idk if it's possible with the pieces, but 3x SS with 3x Scent of blood would be funny
Ofc he can test the scaling lol, that's exactly what he did
Prob 3x new fok trait over sob
Its pretty broken with current tuning
yeah, the fok trait looks nice
dunno man I think the only important thing that matters really is how much haste to mastery you need for the most optimal damage
without compromising your other stats
You're missing his entire point
yes ofc like you said it doesn't matter a lot anyway
I think he just don't get why i'm so excited about it and he's right, at the end it doesn't really matter.
was there pinned the rotation wihtout ss
yeh its in the guide
k i think its pretty much same as in legion minus the KB
hey guys, I just got galecaller's boon and I'm wondering do I hold on my exsanguinates to line it up with the trinket or do I not and just use it on cd??
All good
any of you use a macro to cast toxicblade or exsang as to whatever is specced instead of changing it everytime?
#showtooltip
/cast [talent:6/2]Toxic Blade;[talent6/3]Exsanguinate
tyy
#showtooltip /cast [talent:6/2]Toxic Blade;[talent:6/3]Exsanguinate
if you don't use talent: you just get a broken macro
/cast [talent:6/2]Toxic Blade;[talent6/3]Exsanguinate is /cast [talent:6/2]Toxic Blade;Exsanguinate
dunno might save coins or w/e for 415 gear
also 5th rings comes with raid so any gear you buy when 8.1 release will only have 4 rings
unless vendor doesnt come out til raid
They will probably cap the currency so you cant save up too much
lame
And 385 pieces are gonna be cheap as hell when 8.1 hits anyway since 415 are the expensive ones
Or well, thats what im assuming as people stocking too much before the raid
guess we will see at 8.1
Finally get a good galecallers and new patch about to be out.
It's not like they are nerfing it

Haste gear during tyrannical?
There is still like 2 months left till new raid where you get to use your galecallers
So youre good
idk it seems to me that the cake is on dice
its on every freaking fight as top trinket
maybe its top because of lucky procs
It has a good uptime
3 different secondary stat buffs which are good for sin
bloodmallet has it below plumage
but plumage is nowhere to be seen in the top logs PepoThink edit: I'm dumb its actually there
What
Plumage is used very often too
I used both
use*
People dont use plumage because its an on-use trinket that isnt gale
I mean compared to dice
Its not that its bad
its like 1/4
Well but Plumage is on use
Dice isn't
People usually go On use + random proc
So can't really compare
makes sense
But if you look at mythic logs, there will always be a plumage in top 5
whats up with overcharger tho
Got buffed
I think I deleted a 385 one a while ago
might have to check 500 restore pages to find it
Plumage is top 1 for 5/7 fights in Uldir
Not counting Zul because cmon π
hmm
on myhrax hc
how come 2 x ss deals more dps than 1 x ss and 1 x dd?
with toxic blade
on both setups
In regards to rotation, how should I be using toxic blade? before envenom?
You use envenoms in TB windows
No I would go SUB
pff..
Sub isn't that good on heroic
I wouldn't bother with Crimson Tempest either though
I mean #1 sub is 18k dps ahead on #1 sin but ok
hate spec changing oh well..
You have no idea why he is that far ahead do you
His group let him parse
The ads will die instantly in any group
yeah hate that..
hmm it seems that many rogues go with 2xDD on ulder and still use subterfuge instead of master assasin?
and parce over 95 item level?
item level parses in current year
i thopugh its much better to use master ass if u go 0 on SS traits
Its not much better
not much
for me it sims about the same but sub edges out
it barely sims higher and subterfuge becomes much better with any additional targets
like with taloc there
it just feels like shit garroting for 1 cp lol after expeiencing ss
so why bother with master assassin
99/99 with 2xdd and subterfuge
you can vanish SS last add when elevator phase ends
do double on taloc for max duration
or have one up from elevator phase if u dont mind standing in shit for a while
still dont get it how u parce 99/99 with 2xdd and subterfuge on mythic taloc though π
Ah
i mean taloc is a meme
his "99%" is rank 280
i did 96% taloc while forgetting poisons until 2mins into the fight
Yo, guess what? DD trait doesnβt exist...
Havenβt seen it on any piece above 340!
i use vanish on phase 1 on talock though
Blizz mustβve taken it out πππ
i meme out taloc every time by dying LUL
on tidesage council is it beter to stand in the haste aoe if you have all your bleeds up but cant hit the boss
ofc not
like not to the point where energy is capped
you want autoattacks pretty much always
aight
hmm
haste biggest benefit is energy and AA damage anyway
Would running into the haste rune for exsang be good tho
warcraft logs shows different results? theres a bug on those?
like when i check my personal it parces 20 higher
than when i check my guilds log on the kill
it just uses diffrent metrics it compares it to, i agree its quite bad to know what one is actually used
cuz when u go to actual log it says its current % while ur character profile is from the day it got logged
hey, does nightbourn racials 1% magic dmg increase do anything at all for rogues? (does dots count as magic)
Poisons
Would and envenom Iβd imagine
Since theyβre classified as βnatureβ dmg

Is there anywhere I can go to find the dps benefit from being a nelf and getting the extra vanish?
ah cheers
I should be delaying my third exsang a bit for vanish/vendetta right?
No, delay vendetta and vanish for 4th exsanf
Vanish should be up at the same time as it so it should be fine
The fourth one that is, so around 2.25
hmm yea you're right. I think I was wasting too much time setting up my 2nd/3rd exsangs
so the 4th was way too late for vendetta/vanish
Yea. I think I spent an extra few seconds on each getting up fresh garrotes/ruptures
Yea you gotta prep for it a few seconds before it comes off cd

Should I wait till I get AOTC to try for mythic progression?
like as a guy trying to pug groups or something? I think most RL types consider the first 2 bosses of Mythic easier than G'huun
Pug rn as I havenβt built my raid team yet....
you should try and get AOTC, a solid gear set, and shop for a guild
at this point you're banking on next tier for any real ground
does a socket in your weapon change your weapon dps or doesnt it matter if i have it in the main or offhand?
It doesnt change weapon dps no
can any of the 370 azerite caches drop a SS helm?
I believe no
welp guess its time to continue rolling the weekly chest
yes why
what abt it
i got twist the knife on my 370 helm but my 360 helm at DB. Should i switch to the 370 helm
Sim it
Anyone who sims 19k here and is at the computer?
anyone else find male bloodelfs look funny with sprint?
Or around that atleast
how would you sim it?
@crude bay only Sim at 18k but super curious what your question is.
2min sim
Trying to figure out how hard onerooming mythic mother is
Donβt think many classes at high end gear can do enough dps
Oh damn! That would be awesome to see though. I have a feeling everyone would need bis everything.
Some specs are capable yeah, ww, arcane comes to mind
But if you go 1/1/18, all dps need average 25.5k over 2 min
I'm sure there's some cheese setup nobody has tried yet. It's like the sub rogue version of mythic mother.
Sub rogue zul that is.
I'm guessing 25.5k isn't out of the question at 2 minutes.
24.8k dps per dps if tank+healer does 14k total
Ill go to computer and check myself
Just comfy in bed
That's sounds reasonable to me with compliant players.
Dunno
Yeah, you don't get second vendetta, big loss there
2min is a shitty fight length for sin
i can check my sub sim
Gonna check aswell
feel like that would be pushing it for sub
Ya. I was just thinking about if it has to be a consistent 25k.
Has to end fight after 2 min on 25k
cause if they do then might as well just stack that spec to make it happen
