late moat
#

can we get like PSA about EB nerf ? so ppl will stop asking about it every other 15min

edgy crystal
#

@vestal wren i got 390 x 3 EB

#

@vestal wren i can also play 2x390 EB + 1 390 Nothing personal

#

should i go 3x EB for M+?

#

or 2 + 1

late moat
cobalt gyro
#

After the nerf i wouldn't run more than 1 EB trait

late moat
#

^

#

eb is good if it's your only 390

edgy crystal
#

have they nerfed yet?

late moat
#

o holy shiet

cobalt gyro
#

Yes it has been

vestal wren
#

@edgy crystal i dont know tbh, you could run a sim on raidbots using m+ style

#

ye the eb nerf was big, tho it still seems to be a very strong trait

cobalt gyro
#

I've been running 1 eb + 2ss, feels fine to me, and running subt instead of MA so that I can garrote spread like usual. Eb just an extra for aoe filler

obsidian ridge
#

apparently it's not worth stacking EB, optimal setup for m+ (for me) seems to be 1 EB and double SS

timid grotto
#

how do i sim my stat weights for m+ ? hectic add cleave > 5 bosses > 1min ?

buoyant coyote
#

hows the opener now with nothing personal?

sturdy python
#

Shouldn't change

grim wolf
#

feels exactly the same tbh

sturdy python
#

@timid grotto

#

!m+

prisma monolithBOT
#

Use the fight style Dungeon Slice (Beta) for a M+ simulation on Raidbots.

buoyant coyote
#

i need to get used to zero SS

timid grotto
#

oh didnt know that existed

#

ty

quaint frost
#

how the f you 18.6k dps

buoyant coyote
#

probly lots of mythic gear?

#

Im like 384 with 3/8 M proggress

vast forum
#

I simmed 19k+ before patch

buoyant coyote
#

did we get nerfed?

worldly raft
#

I would say mythic geared, then 18-19+ is normal

vast forum
#

Will see when i get home from work

cobalt gyro
#

I was about 18.6k as well

buoyant coyote
#

I cant find anything (sin rogue )

vast forum
#

No nerfs in patch

sturdy python
#

Well eb nerf lol

quaint frost
#

I'm 381 and im simmin 16.6k ...

#

but thats without 10 stack archive because im simmin for mythic pluses

sturdy python
#

Are you skmming archive

quaint frost
#

nah i dont run it in mythic plus

drifting cloud
#

well kinda obvious then isnt it

cobalt gyro
#

If you're built for m+ with lota of crit and low haste, yeah your ST will suffer

fiery cradle
#

750 secondary stat is pre large

vast forum
#

Ra is around 1800 dps

#

Or more even

neon nacelle
#

idk why, but ss lost so much simdps in my case

spice surge
#

Nothing has changed, so you've changed something

neon nacelle
#

Guess i will be sticking with double dose anyways

vestal wren
#

yes, there will be no change for st

#

the new trait maybe worth taking 1 time

neon nacelle
#

let me check

patent topaz
#

ill run double archive, 1x ss forever because lul azerite

quick aurora
#

Is nothing personal worth replacing ss , archive or dd. ?there the 3 I have atm

sleek veldt
#

What do you guys sim against normally for M+? Is the Dungeon Slice (BETA) worth using?

neon nacelle
#

Doesnt seem to be an upgrade for me tho, maybe on fights like mother where u get the dmg amplifier in the third chamber

#

or Fetid with the 3 min burst tactic

wary anchor
#

nothing personal is good right

knotty lichen
#

What are you running usually Nola? 2 dd/1arch?

neon nacelle
#

Depends, mythrax for example i ran 2 SS/ 1 Arch

wary anchor
#

How is ancient bulwark

neon nacelle
#

Vectis 1 SS / 1 DD / 1 Laser (bcuz overwhelming on laser chest)

knotty lichen
#

Ok

quick aurora
#

Is blood mallet or herodamge the most accurate?

sturdy python
#

Herodamage for rogues at least

quick aurora
#

Sweet

timid grotto
#

damn my ass gear sims worse than sub pepehands

sick frost
#

so this week one FoK trait and 2 ss?...talents - sub and CT?

keen inlet
#

oh boy spicy patch life

prisma monolithBOT
#

There is no specific week or affix that makes one or the other more viable.
CT vs PB is mainly down to your group, the dungeon itself and your pull sizes, with PB naturally having an edge in boss fights.
It's mainly the combination of affixes and dungeons that favour one or the other. High Tyr KR/Temple favour PB in general, due to low pulls and harder bosses.
In terms of Exsang vs TB; Exsang wins since it works well with SS traits and it's only 1 global on your priority target for some burst damage and extra energy.
TB usually locks you to that target to gain the most out of it.

steep ridge
#

with the nerf to Echoing Blades, is it still worth to use in m+?

verbal mantle
#

Why dont you go test it in M+ ? :D

shrewd folio
#

S I M I T

merry fox
#

@neon nacelle ss lost value becouse of stealth fix for vanish. It no longer gives you subterfuge buff -> so you got empowered garrote only when entering fight

ocean rune
#

Is Vendetta supposed to break stealth now?

steep ridge
#

@merry fox isn'T that fixed already?

neon nacelle
#

@merry fox Thats alrdy fixed and it would not have applied to simcraft

verbal mantle
#

@ocean rune fucking test it on a target dummy

ocean rune
#

Easy there, was just a question

steep ridge
#

it breaks stealth with the new trait

#

probably because of the poison

knotty lichen
#

There’s a dot with the new trait, so it probably breaks stealth if you’re using it yeah

ocean rune
#

ohh, theres my answer, I had different traits prior to the patch

#

now i see I have 2x vendetta trait

#

ty bros

steep ridge
#

wtf

quick aurora
#

how do ppl have vendetta trait so quick?

steep ridge
#

Echoing blades is a 1k improvement over ss in m+ simulation :<

#

it replaced poison wire

wet oxide
#

Poisoned wire is vendeta now as far as i know

steep ridge
#

had one azerite piece with it

ocean rune
#

I had the trait that increased the crit rating of Mutilate @quick aurora

#

and that was changed

#

yeah, like Aedan said

quick aurora
#

oh i c let me check my bags

wet oxide
#

And FoK changed to EB

quick aurora
#

oh cool found it

#

so it actually procs even if vendetta is on cd?

#

nothing personal i mean

knotty lichen
#

No, it’s a poison on your target on use

#
  • energy regen
quick aurora
#

oh i see now ty

ocean rune
#

Extra burst

normal ridge
#

so need double dose x2 for be gucci no?

quick aurora
#

so if u choose it could you reduce your haste gems/gear etc ?

strange python
#

nothing personal really dat bad...-.-

knotty lichen
#

Haste still fasten bleeds, reduce gcd and augment your poison application rate so I don’t think so, the new trait may be interesting in fights like mother or fetid burst strat but I don’t see how it would change our stats weights

quick aurora
#

ok so looks like ill keep archive ss and dd for now for raid

vast forum
#

Doesn't reduce gcd (except vend) @knotty lichen

solid nova
#

^

knotty lichen
#

NP is interesting (1trait) but mostly situational

#

@vast forum right, my bad

quick aurora
#

makes sence tyvm

dapper wraith
#

Think the vanish thing will get reverted?

blazing tulip
#

It was already fixed if you are talking about the subterfuge Rasix

dapper wraith
#

oh, shit. whew.

echo cargo
#

So 2x NP isn’t preferable?

solid nova
quick aurora
#

one more question , if i was to use NP for say fetid/mother ...would i swap out a piece with dd or archive? as atm i use arch dd and ss

knotty lichen
#

2x NP only stacks the dot damage so it lose a bit of value

sturdy python
#

Still want array stacks

quick aurora
#

ok so Arch ,SS ,NP?

knotty lichen
#

I usually run only 1 array, and 1 NP is close to 1 DD damage, si I would try to run 1arch 1DD 1NP

echo cargo
#

Does 1x NP shift your stat weights to mastery tho?

strange python
#

no i dont think that

knotty lichen
#

Don’t think so but stats weights vary from 1 char to another so you should sim it to be sure

rare jackal
#

just got a piece with shadow of elune

#

but its bad right?

quick aurora
#

then i would have to switch playstyle from ss as i am speced subterfuge

knotty lichen
#

Why so?

lethal echo
#

Anyone know about that new trinket from the world boss ?

knotty lichen
#

Arch/ss/np should be fine aswell tbh

lethal echo
#

Not in bloodmallet yet

quick aurora
#

coolies ty

strange python
#

nearly every stat is good for assa, nothing special changed

wary ice
#

Did EB get nerfed yet?

#

Its not in the list of known issues

solid nova
#

Yes

wary ice
#

are sim places updated?

#

Sorry for bs q's im at work and cant check

quick ice
#

@lethal echo simmed it myself earlier (scroll way up for link) and it's worse than fathoms.

quaint sequoia
#

so after EB nerf, is it still best in aoe?

lethal echo
#

Jesus really?

#

Just got it to drop too not home atm
The uptime must be trash then

#

@quick ice thanks man

median notch
#

is hero damage updated? why both new traits suck so much ballz?

lone junco
compact void
#

Hey guys , is it good if i play with 2 SS and 1 archive ?

#

for m+

lone junco
#

use the top gear sim on Dungeon slice.

#

pick your ss traits, and fok traits.

#

something will be tops

rose sapphire
lone junco
#

charts are neat. but sim your own stuff

#

ilvl matters.

patent spire
#

forest lords razorleaf anygood?

haughty flame
#

wut r our best traits atm then?

lone junco
#

sim your own stuff

echo geyser
#

anyone tested out hidden blades with Echoing blades? (i know theres been a 75% nerf to the trait)

lone junco
#

yes

shrewd bane
#

SS has been buffed ?

lone junco
#

no

echo geyser
#

in a sense ss has been "buffed"

#

its scaling with vers now

shrewd bane
#

yes

echo geyser
#

so u get more dmg on the trait

shrewd bane
#

i saw the new formula a few weeks

patent spire
#

lol i have only 2% vers :d

shrewd bane
#

but it's not mentionned in the patch notes

#

it's why i've asked

echo geyser
#

its not big to make u go vers

#

crit mastery still better

sturdy python
#

No that was a tooltip update

#

Ss wasn't changed

lone junco
#

I heard it worked that way anyway.

echo geyser
#

vers is just a small bonus

shrewd bane
#

it's a buff

echo geyser
#

i mean the numbers didnt change before this patch

shrewd bane
#

i compared the dmg with the new formula a few weeks ago

echo geyser
#

now hwen i switch around vers gear it changes

#

when*

shrewd bane
#

300 ~ dmg on dd

patent spire
#

cool i managed to get two ss traits 😃

shrewd bane
#

with my versa

sturdy python
#

No it's not

#

It was just a tooltip update

patent spire
#

i m thinkin bout going 3 SS when i get my head piece

sturdy python
#

This was talked about during ptr, vers changed nothing

lone junco
#

just in time for fok schanges.

echo geyser
#

vers changed nothing before patch u mean?

sturdy python
#

...

#

Vers is no different in regards to ss than before

#

The tooltips were chanhed

#

That's it

#

Damage is the same

echo geyser
#

so i just wasnt paying attention to my vers and then checking the ss dmg on gear pieces then

patent spire
#

any idea why im simming this low with 377 gear

rose sapphire
#

im simming 19400 with 384 eq + Double Dose, Dagger in the back and 1 archiv

lone junco
#

@patent spire no archive

#

377 should be 17.8k

patent spire
#

yeah

#

gotta get rid of lazermatrix

lone junco
#

no. your sim doesnt include archive stacks

#

you simmed it wrong

patent spire
#

well im a failure

sturdy python
#

That's not what he means

lone junco
#

use
Smart raid buffs.
smart sim.
Patchwerk
Nightly

#

it didnt include your 10x stacks of haste.

sturdy python
#

Did you Sim with array stacks?

lone junco
patent spire
#

i simmed statweights

lone junco
patent spire
#

okay

compact void
#

How should i sim for m+ ? I mean which parameters ?

solid nova
#

!m+

prisma monolithBOT
#

Use the fight style Dungeon Slice (Beta) for a M+ simulation on Raidbots.

median notch
#

insane how crit got so much value on stat weights even with array. seems unreal

lone junco
#

for Fok weights?

median notch
#

no ST

lone junco
#

I havent seen any ST with crit above agi. the aoe fokkening. even with current iteration is very very high crit

#

but I didnt rerun my stuff recently

median notch
#

i got both crit and haste above agi and even crit is my array atm

#

just does not seem right at all dunno

lone junco
#

seems like your haste is too low if your crit is taking over.

#

maybe trinkets

dense quest
#

any one have spymaster's wraps on raidbots? its showing as not having DD when I know it does

median notch
#

all 3 at 1000

#

crit like 20 more

dense quest
#

nvm wrong ring

patent spire
#

i simmed again but i think i failed again

#

it went up to 15,9k

solid nova
#

Ill sim it for you

#

2mins.

sturdy python
#

The fokkening

#

That's what that period will be called

patent spire
#

Thank you lad.

lone junco
#

rip

sturdy python
#

The fokkening will happen again one day don't worry

lone junco
#

hooray

#

that leaf trinket is weird

patent spire
#

i replaced it with the meme cannon 370 item level

#

wonder if it was good idea or not

winged forge
#

For those of you who killed M zul last night, did you do it standard serving him? My guild was having trouble preventing the second hexed set

lone junco
patent spire
#

i mean i replaced the meme cannon LoL

lone junco
#

Fathoms may bet it.

#

anyway. 17.4 isnt that far behind

pliant steeple
#

errr I am for some reason energy starved in M+

#

is that normal? D:

lone junco
#

tab more ruptures.

pliant steeple
#

wasnt like that yesterday

lone junco

make sure your poisons are on.

That one time rogues did decent aoe damage.

Wat

craggy helm
#

Well...assas

solid nova
#

SS?

#

Pre-nerf

#

Post-nerf

spice surge
#

You know assa does some of (probably THE) highest sustained aoe in the entire game right now?

solid nova
#

Take your pick 😂

lone junco
#

@compact void relatively. try the 3rd ss if you ahve it.

craggy helm
#

Rofl

#

No it doesn't.

wary ice

I literally never had a problem with ass aoe 😦

craggy helm

Maybe like 3 or 4 target

Keyword: sustained

wary ice

now i just spin and get fucked the fuck up

Look at any high M+ mey

Look at the DH, balance druid

wary ice
#

I got absolutely demolished yesterday in a 12 temple

#

no clue what i was doing wrong

#

kept dying to shit

compact void
#

@lone junco I don't have it , i'm actually running 2 SS + archive

wary ice
#

Literally never got hit by this stuff before 😦

compact void
#

@lone junco The parameters are good ?

lone junco
#

yeah. Slice sets them for you.

#

if you switch to any Fok traits, your haste trinket will go for that spyglass.

#

but the sim will tell you that.

compact void
#

Well

#

I have a fok trait on the head but if i take it , i give up the archive

#

is it worth ?

lone junco
#

@craggy helm they are cd dependant. sin just needs to stealth to maintain 35-40k forever. but no need arguing about sustained pulls.

#

talking 30s +

#

not 10 second blast packs.

astral hill
#

Yo, what is the best trait set now?

compact void
#

@lone junco

open stag
#

For what? Raid? M+?

frozen pecan
#

open world

tropic shadow
#

Play whatever you like most

craggy helm
#

Naw, it's a shit, knee jerk reaction. To do that aoe damage you literally have to put all your Azerite traits into it. Sacrificing tons of ST damage. That is exactly how it should work. They don't even give it a chance to play out and look at logs before nerfing.

modest badge
#

imagine imagining

open stag
#

So just leveling? World pvp? Or just a jack of all trades thing?

frozen pecan
wary ice
#

Has the EBFoK rotation been posted anywhere; namely at how many stacks of the trait does it start becoming more relevent

craggy helm
#

God forbid a 3 DPS spec class actually has a way to spec into heavy aoe.

frozen pecan
#

I need bis for pvp, raid and m+

DH isnt cd reliant

primal gazelle

eye beam is on a 30 sec cd and barrage is 1 min

lone junco
#

@compact void when you run top gear, select all of your SS, Archive, and Fok. then also pick subterfuge/MA CT/HB. run that as a dungeon slice. see what happens.

compact void
#

Ok ok

ashen lagoon
#

is stacking SS trait still the best way to go in M+ ?

frozen pecan
#

is this dh discord?

primal gazelle
#

yes

lone junco
#

if the fok if close at all, try more crit (trinkets)

astral hill

I mean bis for Raids and m+

maybe I clicked the wrong inv

#

eb is now trash

#

its a quality of life trait once you have access to 6 traits,

but scent ss archive probably better at this point

i hope to run 2ss 2scent 2fok

ish

but w/e

i hope to run yo mama

wary ice

dont ss and eb like prevent eachother's usefulness?

lone junco

depends on the target

so having 1 of each is the best i get out of this?

I ran it for zul trash. and sustained higher than I think i normally would.

primal gazelle
#

look at yuor tooltip

solid nova
#

ingame?

lone junco
#

but it was lot and lots of tabbed ruptures.

high holly
#

rly? i just tested on 4 dummies and i get 30k+ for 2 min straight

primal gazelle
#

screenshot it

lone junco
#

yeah. 30k isnt 100k

high holly
#

nothing is 100k

#

still better than SS

lone junco
#

i had a 4dummy test yesterday probably 50k.

strange python
#

it was 100k

#

but gone are the days

primal gazelle
#

bursted for 200-400k in a ML before the nerf

#

was great

lone junco
#

BTW the fok traits were buffing the FOK hit from HB.

#

thats why I hit 20k open on each target.

high holly
#

yeah but that was obvs OP getting nerfed

lone junco
#

Schwing

#

sure

high holly
#

isn't it still good?

primal gazelle
#

sims has it on the bottom of the list now

#

so no

high holly
primal gazelle
#

literally bottom 4 azerite traits for dungeon

high holly
#

outdated i suppose?

primal gazelle
#

look at herodamage

#

click rogue, assassin, dungeon sim, and scroll alllll the way to the bottom

#

LOL

high holly
#

damn aight

glossy seal
#

is bloodmallet/herodamage/raidbots up to date?

primal gazelle
#

you need to use MA and HB to maximize EB, but at this point it isnt worth it to do that over using subtufge/PB or CT

solid nova
#

@normal ridge Why arent you simming with RA stacks?

lone crescent
#

wait so im not alone?

high holly
#

@strange python does TB sim higher than exsang for you?

lone junco
#

note. Dungeon slice pulls are relatively small and will lean toward ss. if you were teeming fort, and pulling 10+ EB would perform differentl.

strange python
#

Marginally lower, but i like TB Maxter.

@primal gazelle People ask me the weirdest questions. "im 386, why is my log so bad"

How can it be nerfed, i'm doing 30k dps on 4 target in 1min20

lone junco
#

that is less than it was

#

sec

solid nova
#

That's significantly less than before

#

70/75% iirc?

strange python
#

ye 75%

#

2x EB + 1 SS with Hidden Blades

#

did they reduce shroud from 18sek to 15 and did gave no patch info?

primal gazelle
#

its always been 15

fast nacelle
#

for assa i run exsang and for sub i run 232xx31 on 3+ min fights and 212xx31 on 1-2 min fights (taloc/vectis i guess)

mfd for vectis maybe

strange python
#

sure?

primal gazelle
#

yes

#

10000% sure

patent spire
#

😦

strange python
#

so why ppl say shroud in underot at begin wount gonna work anymore?

primal gazelle

nothing to do with duration

lone junco
#

@strange python I didnt get a screen grab, but my non crits were 2999 crits at 6k went to 500 non crit 1k crit.

#

it was gross.

#

it is ok for massive pulls now.

#

I do remember that 3fok HB open was 19k crit on each target.

primal gazelle
#

this was yesterday on every pack pull

lone junco
#

yee

primal gazelle
#

compared to your 30k dps

strange python
#

my lord

lone junco
#

30k is pretty normal with SS and CT

vague lava

prisma monolithBOT
lone junco
#

so if you do the same and just mash fok and rupture, then seems good, but dead for bosses.

primal gazelle
#

this was the 1 min 6 target sim pre-eb nerf

#

pretty sure its like 20-30k now or so lol

lone junco
#

the weights for 10t40 was pretty funny

haste of 2

strange python
#

im at 18.1 to :/

fast nacelle
#

i lost 200 dps or so in assa cause i went for sub enchants

tall pond
#

i only have 9 sockets though

lone junco
#

is sub mastery vers?

fast nacelle
#

my sub weights

#

crit > agi

#

thehe

lone junco
#

neat

strange python
#

post your sub at sub descussion lol

#

idk about sub

lone junco
#

tyra is big eggplant.

#

dont disrespec

fast nacelle
#

noobe asked me

#

sadly EB prob wont be used anywhere

lone junco
#

maybe when we get 6

shell zealot
#

hey guys, would love some opinions, who would deal more damage on a 5 min patchwerk: a full haste assa rogue or a full mastery assa rogue?

lone junco
#

I love the idea of 3scent tho.

shell zealot
#

im missing wrists and gloves to be able toi test this mysself

lone junco
#

but eb cleave isnt agi driven.

fast nacelle
#

haste takes over mastery at 3 min

strange python
#

sorry if im rude but im desperate on my assa, new traits cant figure out which to take^^ and its a lot sub posting in here 😮

fast nacelle
#

funnily enough for taloc mastery enchant is better than haste

#

if you sim 1 min and 2 min (p1 and p2) fight

#

crit mastery sims higher

shell zealot
#

hmm

fast nacelle
#

haste takes over with your second vendetta

lone junco
#

@strange python depends on the fight. archive + DD/SS for st raid. 3ss for M+

fast nacelle
#

2-3 min is break even when quick navi becomes better

lone junco
#

Haste is ONLY Energy

fast nacelle
#

(for me at least)

#

yep

#

well

lone junco
#

and it is bonkers how much haste stack feeds.

#

like Haste is garbage for SS cleave.

fast nacelle
#

my assa st will be so garbo now

#

i dont get haste array

lone junco
#

like 2000 e per fight returned with 40haste instead of 40crit

fast nacelle
lone junco
#

I wanted to play crit array. but looking at the losses, the raw energy gain + venom return added up A LOT.

fast nacelle
#

yeah

lone junco
#

array is like cheats.

fast nacelle
#

but for st i ll go sub anyway i guess

#

you can go crit stuff for sub and still be fine with assa m+

#

cause crit mastery is good for sub and assa aoe

sand canyon
#

@fast nacelle PogChamp

fast nacelle
#

just replaced 390 versa haste bracer with 385 crit haste

shrewd bane
#

hey muscle

strange python
#

What do you think about Nothing Personal trait is it worthy for m+?

fast nacelle
#

@sand canyon 💪

#

nah

#

m+ is SS and Rupture

#

or titans if you dont have rup trait

#

idk all sims i made for nothing personal were underwhelming

lone junco
#

NP is single target. M+ is cleave.

fast nacelle
#

battlefield focus was way higher for me (both on the same piece)

One more question: I got 1 AOT(370), 1 DD(385), 1 SS(370) or 1 AOT(370) and 2 SS(370); and ican switch around other items and have stats: 26%cri, 15%haste, 33%mast 2% vers(381 total ilvl) or 25%crit, 20%haste, 29%mast, 2%vers. which item comp/stats should choose and what build: toxic blade or exsang? We still progging in mythic(taloc, mother,zek on farm).

fresh ginkgo
shell zealot
#

would really help out

#

had a full 2 weeks of work and havent been able to sim, or read up

#

lone junco

@fresh ginkgo more like 3 hours.

fresh ginkgo
#

I'm guessing it's pretty bad now

shell zealot
#

and simcraft not working at all, giving me an error that it cant parse my helm

strange python
#

should i go 2x SS and 1 DD or 1 SS 1 Archive 1 DD for M+ dont have different traits for DD exchange and its 390 ilvl

fast nacelle
#

DD is not that bad

#

2 ss 1 dd sounds fine if its 390

strange python
#

archive and SS both are 375

fast nacelle
#

at 2-3 targets you dont need to fok that hard than in legion

strange python
#

slacking azerite gear

fast nacelle
#

you have 2x 375 ss and 1x 390 dd?

strange python
#

y

fast nacelle
#

sounds fine

#

you can just build cp with mut

#

on 2-3 targets

#

i think you start fok at 4 or if they have no poison but i think there's a command

#

or pin

strange python
#

trinkets im useing doomswake and dice but not sure that im losing singel dps

#

else im going with fathoms and galecallers

fast nacelle
#

doomswake is good
dice is fine
i still prefer shrine trinket for m+

#

its good for opener/bosses and also good for opener at packs

strange python
#

ty vm i will try out

pallid snow
#

also GCB + Exsan is a nice combo

strange python
#

ye im playing ex + Gcb and CT for m+

fast nacelle
#

yup

#

its not just good for exsan also for opener on big pulls

#

it helps a lot for your initial spread

#

of ct/rups

patent spire
#

just play outlaw, tupac was member of them also=)

#

gotta stop smokeiing

wanton pond
#

what do you guys think about TB in m+ ? I usually use ex for most with CT but a couple dungs I run tb and Pb

pallid snow
#

I like TB on Tyranical weeks

lost mist
#

im actually using NP+DD+AOT, and MA as a talent because it sim better for me, so i have a question: should i open: Garrote-Mut-Rupt-Mut-Vendetta-TB-Vanish-Spam envenom?

#

(385-385-375)

patent spire
#

what people dont use TB anymore?

lone junco
#

I used 2xDD +tb last night in raid.

#

I dont like it. pretty boring. but it does ok.

wanton pond
#

I find tb is really only good for single target

#

so tyrannical weeks where you dont have to worry about hjelping as much with trash

#

I run that with PB

grand trail
#

any news for us this patch?

lone junco
#

meh. DD isnt that far ahead of SS that I would run 3 DD in M+. but you do you.

wanton pond
#

I think SS is priority in m+

#

imo

#

if you have a piece that is high enough with DD i would take it

fresh ginkgo
#

worth using one EB now?

strange python
#

Havent had the time to play much these days. Is there a significant change in our gameplay/azerite/statweight etc for m+?

fresh ginkgo
#

or nuked out into orbit

wanton pond
#

I sim higher ST with 1x SS 1x Archive and 1x DD but the DD is 390

#

having at least 2x SS is a huge boost imo

#

even if you are taking a hit on ilvls

high holly
#

for g'huun mythic worth to abandon SS with heed my call for metich scheeming with gutripper?

#

then i have 3x gutripper

lone junco
#

pretty sure there was a beta fight sim for mythic ghuun. for full execute

#

its not my concern, so Idk if it is good or not.

high holly
#

where?

lone junco
fast nacelle
#

@lone junco did you design new azerite traits?

#

i think we have ss on every piece

#

i like it a lot.. im a big fan of exsang and SS

lone junco
#

nice.

fast nacelle
#

xD

lone junco
#

what would the raid bis be. without array

#

synergy wise. in feely craft world

#

not a lot buffs ss in st

#

ss and vendetta ?

#

bleh

fast nacelle
#

im not even sure if i would play assa at current sub state

strange python
#

I'm guessing herodamage has fixed traits?

fast nacelle
#

unless bosses have downtime heavy movement

hearty junco
#

anyone know how the new alchemy trinket faires compared to other trinkets?

lone junco
#

not on the table. my brain is full.

#

@hearty junco whats it called

strange python
#

EB that low?

hearty junco
#

[Zandalari Alchemy: Emblazoned Alchemist Stone]

high holly
#

i'm still a bit confused to how to play with exsang, if exsang is coming off cd do you not refresh dots until you can line up exsang? or do you refresh both just before exsang comes of cd? or do you hold exsang until dots are pandemicable then refresh and pop exsang?

lone junco
#

@strange python is that the slice sim stack?

normal ridge
#

@lone junco atm is better [Exsanguinate] than TB

#

?

lone junco
#

depends.

#

ss or dd?

true gyro
#

hmmm the new darkshore trinket not showing properly in raidbots

lone junco
#

st or cleave

true gyro
#

and can't find it in herodamage either

fresh ginkgo
#

yea i have that same trinket

strange python
#

What is the trinket called

warm sable
#

The best one is when you sim yourself 😄

fresh ginkgo
#

might be good in m+

normal ridge
#

@lone junco for m+ is better TB no?

fresh ginkgo
#

something leaf

#

lol

true gyro
#

Forest Lord's Razorleaf or something

lone junco
#

@normal ridge sim inc.

#

for me anyway

lone junco
#

can add this line to your Top gear sim list so it shows up in the stack.

this stats

dreamy fiber
#

Boois anyone can help me, google and my brain have failed me. - Since patch my combo points look like shit on target frame (i have copied wtf and addons from before patch and re installed addons to no avail) I cant however find any options for CP in elvui thru my lack of IQ i think - looks like this http://prntscr.com/lu32ij

lone junco
#

normal

#

@dreamy fiber use default ui. CPs are on your player frame.

sick frost
#

for aoe haste first?! O.o

dreamy fiber
#

Yeah but how do i turn that shit off

sick frost
#

and mastery last

quick ice
#

That's actually a default UI setting overwriting elvUI @dreamy fiber

#

Do it on interface, names iirc

strange python
#

Did u update ur Elvui?

lone junco
#

Alch is loss to fathoms. ggg

dreamy fiber
#

Yeah, ELV updated

quick ice
#

Happened to me with sUF too.

true gyro
#

any idea what to add to topgear for it to show the razorleaf trinket

#

since it show's 0 agility atm

quick ice
#

It will work, it's a tooltip issue atm @true gyro

lone junco
#

which means. if you dont have fathoms yet, and stone is cheap, get it

true gyro
#

alright

lone junco
#

It will probably work better than fathoms in cleave anyway

strange python
#

uhhhh

sick frost
#

so any1 know what stats for AOE now?

strange python
#

@true gyro trinket1=forest_lords_razorleaf,id=166794

bronze kelp
#

stats for aoe? still crit mastery

strange python
#

but thats like 355

quick ice
#

Stone won't be cheap because you need like 55 expulsom to make it

true gyro
#

ye got the 385 version

lone junco
#

I reran that sim on dungeon slice. maybe it will work out better

strange python
#

@true gyro trinket1=forest_lords_razorleaf,id=166794,bonus_id=1502/5479

lone junco
#

anyway. it is in the gear compare lists.

fast nacelle
#

dont forget that alch stone will go to 415

true gyro
#

thx

strange python
#

😃

fast nacelle
#

while fathom stays 350

#

however i think jc and lw are go to

sick frost
#

@bronze kelp i sim...haste and crit for aoe

fast nacelle
#

mythic ring with 100% socket is too good

quick ice
#

You don't need to make the 385 to make the 415 though tyra

fast nacelle
#

oh really

#

how does it work then

quick ice
#

The daz trinket had its own craft path starting from a bought recipe

fast nacelle
#

i thought you do the 385 to get the 400 one and then the 415

bronze kelp
#

@sick frost what fightstyle? dungeon slice ?

sick frost
#

yea

fast nacelle
#

good to know

sick frost
#

mastery is in last place

quick ice
#

I mean you do that still, but it's a different 385 to the one you can make

bronze kelp
#

@sick frost and on dungeon slice is a boss fight integrated, so its not an aoe sim

#

so haste is valued more, cause of the boss fight

crystal vault
#

how's the new vendetta trait ?

lone junco
#

meh

sick frost
#

i sim i beastlord now

lone junco
#

but I wouldnt scrap anything until a few weeks pass.

sick frost
#

in*

lone junco
#

@sick frost use dungeon slice for M+. patchwerk for ST boss.

quick ice
#

Unless it's a repeat of something you have off 😀

#

Got my 3rd fetid chest today

lone junco
#

but thats 360

#

in slicesim

strange python
#

A cool system is where you could reroll 2 of ur existing pieces eg. Chest and Head for a random Shoulder piece

unborn silo
#

What would u guys recommend for M+ 3 SS or 2 SS and 1 SoB

lone junco
#

either. depends on pull size or duration

#

and Ilvl.

crude gate
#

Did EB get a hotfix yet?

lone junco

What new ss trait @hollow ivy ?

lone junco
#

hang on to them. they may balance agin and again

solid nova
#

It's just a tooltip update, the formula hasnt changed. @hollow ivy

lone junco
#

@primal gazelle at least you got to fok the police for a fun or two

strange python
#

tfw when EB sims lower than inner ring traits

solid nova
#

Theres nerfing

#

Then theres gutting

hollow ivy
#

Ahh okey, I wear some more versa gear and dmg at trait tooltip increase. That happened before?

solid nova
#

Yes

royal lantern
#

hmmm.....i must say, after sum runs with it, i like 1x EB

strange python
#

Its trash

royal lantern
#

the FoK dmg boost is not bad man

strange python
#

The trait is trash

solid nova
#

Why a beastlord sim :

crude gate
#

Got 385 EB head from darkshore quest...feelsbad

lone junco
#

EB nature is probably hard to balance. each crit fires again

#

which can crit

#

so fok on 20 mobs and get 5 crits. and 6 waves

analog glade
#

Best trait for zul now ?

lone junco
#

and the trait buffs Fok itself as well.

#

and we have infinite E to hammer overcapped Fok.

shy axle
#

sure it doubledips?

lone junco
#

the Echo can crit.

#

the fok must crit to echo

undone talon
#

!opener

lone junco
#

so in big boi crit numbers. MA fok crit, + 5 waves of possible critters.

velvet forge
#

EB 390 doing better than 375 SS on 4+ targets, but less than that, not so much

lone junco
#

idk. maybe they should have just had a running buff that scales fok white. based on crit, stacks to 5. and sustain fok buff.

strange python
#

Scroll down

#

Look where EB is

lone junco
#

way down.

velvet forge
#

doesnt matter rofl

strange python
#

Huh?

velvet forge
#

sim sucks then

#

needs updating i guess

lone junco
#

neg.

strange python
#

Oh interesting 🤔

velvet forge
#

if you arent using night elf

#

ur bad 😉

lone junco
#

k

velvet forge
#

shouul.d be a night elf option

summer timber
#

so question of the day I'm sure how is the nothing persoanl trait in pve ?

strange python
#

Bad

celest swan
#

hey, the ravneholdt guide only says poison bomb for multi target now, any reasoning behind that?

velvet forge
#

meld/stealth doesnt go into sims

lone junco
#

there is an apl

#

but why would you play alliance?

celest swan
#

afaik we use CT in M+ most of the times and nothing changed?

strange python
#

For big pulls yeah

#

CT/PB

#

CT is "controlled" damage

#

PB is just random

celest swan
#

jsut wondering why the guide changed it

lone junco
#

@velvet forge its already there for ss

velvet forge
#

well, in reality, on a big pull you are moving and PB is worse, that also doesnt show up on sims

wary ice
#

holy nerf batman

#

I take it the APL arent up to date and thats why shits are simming so high still?

lone junco
#

ss + ct is consistently great.

velvet forge
#

never standing still, PB probably gets 2-3 of 5-10 mobs ur kiting and CT gets all

strange python
#

@wary ice EB is trash

wary ice
#

Rip EB

lone junco
#

no shit. thats why SS CT is better than limp fokking eith eb

wary ice
#

u were a meme

lone junco
#

his name was fokker

#

velvet forge
#

on fortified, CT has to be better, on Tyrranical its a wash imo

wary ice
#

his name was fokker 😢

shy axle
#

@summer timber second best in a vacuum behind DD on ST if only using one of each

wary ice
#

I take ct in everything 'cept KR and temple on Tyrannical

#

this week is ct no contest

velvet forge
#

makes sense @wary ice

wary ice
#

its def a talent you swap though

velvet forge
#

yaya

strange python
#

I mean i'd still use CT on tyran

wary ice
#

I use ct on tyr

#

just not in temple

#

because temple bosses are fucking cancer

strange python
#

Kr as well

lone junco
#

when they bump fok back up, ill be HB all day.

#

but not now. rip

wary ice
#

my group doesnt pull large enough to justify ct in KR

velvet forge
#

a lot of it depends on how ur tank pulls, if ur in high keys with a boss tank u have so many more targets

wary ice
#

the only pull it gets value is the poison dudes

strange python
#

You'll never pull a lot in KR

#

Mobs are cancer there

wary ice
#

^

#

whichis why i take pb :^)

lone junco
#

PB is just really bad compared to legion

#

or good

#

depends on if you liked it

fast nacelle
#

who didnt like 2-18% variance

shy axle
#

man no offense but everything seems to be bad out of your mouth. It is tuned differently, thats it

fast nacelle
#

actually 0-20% or smth like that

sick frost

what fight style i need use to sim aoe for rouge assa?

solid nova

For M+ ?

Everything is bad

our azerite priotiy is the same, no?

quaint sequoia

75 fucking %?

#

wtf blizz

velvet forge
#

yep, was doing 80-100k on decent pulls, was FUUnn

wanton lava
#

yea i had just 1 peice of armor with it on and was doing 60K aoe dps in 14 lol

summer timber
#

what people were useing Echo blades on single target???

quaint sequoia
#

rip being EU, never get to try the broken stuffs

#

they could atleast wait for eu to have for one day before hotfixing stuff like that 😛

lone junco
#

@summer timber no. but in cleave it was bonkers.

#

i had 6k crits per mob. dropped to 1k crits.

quaint sequoia
#

wow

lone junco
#

per fok

quaint sequoia
#

is EB rip now?

lone junco
#

once you tabbed out 4 ruptures or so, fokfokfokfokfokfokfokf

#

for now

wanton lava

I think its still ok to use maybe for mythic + FORTIFIED week tho for good aoe dps maybe still

quaint sequoia
#

was looking forward to fok based aoe dmg again like in end of legion

ripe nimbus

More importantly it looks like this lethal (cheat death) not resetting when u die is intentional...... fk blizzard man so many pointless changes

thats stupid

How many of the new currency we gettin from scrappin? Got 72 from my 13 chest. 385 costs 1250(?) thats a joke at least 😂😂

Scrapping 385 gets like 29

before patch 8.1 stats for M+ forti is crit and mastery...and now its crit haste?

Welp. See yall next year when they break FoK again

lone junco

@mighty yew No

#

Raidbots still showing the beefy version

unkempt karma
#

Hast been crit haste for exang

#

certain m+ weeks been crit master or crit haste

mighty yew
#

Yeah, makes sense, cuz my sims are still busted

lone junco
#

must be an advanced coefficient override that herodamage used to push out new numbers.

mighty yew
#

Didn't expect it to drop so low tho on herodamage after the fix

last parrot
#

@ripe nimbus ty for info. So its a long run for a specific one. Easily save them for next patch with higher ilvl..

unkempt karma
#

68 for a +12 this week

#

only 600+ to go. Or even more for a higher itemlvl xD

shrewd folio
#

I got 60 from a +10 and 28 from a +9

#

Which is very odd

manic burrow
#

That's a big drop

unkempt karma
#

but do you get for every m+ you do or just in weekly chest?

vapid moth
#

Weekly chest

#

Imo we should get some for every M+

unkempt karma
#

meaning if you hit like a +10 weekly until 22 second.

#

thats like 300 tops maybe, 350

nova gazelle
#

Did they atleast fix the Subterfuge issue as well, while they hotfixed the trait?

shy axle
#

i got no problems

#

EU

strange python
#

So is echoing blades still what you should be running?

#

or just keep stacking SS?

unkempt karma
#

for what content? m+?

wary ice
#

content in which u'd stack EB, I would assume

#

EB got nerfed to shit @strange python

unkempt karma
#

Sadly it did. By 75%

wary ice
#

still hurts to read

#

75% is just a QA issue tbh

#

something fell through the cracks some where

ruby idol
#

If it makes you feel any better a +22 was only 99 essence

strange python
#

so you don't run echoing blades for m+ anymore?

ruby idol
#

Diminishing returns are quite diminishing

quaint sequoia
primal egret
#

Where can you see the 75% Nerf?

unkempt karma
#

Wowhead

fleet anchor
#

Realistically, the main problem with EB is the Crit based nature and Master Assassin. The trait is basically impossible to balance with MA.

#

MA essentially triples the value of the trait in dungeons.

wary ice
#

lets be real

#

there was a lot of problems with EB

unkempt karma
#

Then why did they even make it, thats the following question

#

releasing and then nerfing not to be used again is a good wasted time.

fleet anchor
#

It was meant to scale with larger packs. But MA makes the proc rate so high that it blows away the “normal” value of the trait.

#

On 7 targets for example

#

Without MA you would expect to average 12.25 hits

#

With MA you average 35

#

It’s a ridiculous difference

#

And will be impossible to balance around

#

Especially since MA uptime is so different in raids vs M+

#

I don’t really see any way forward with this design unless they change the proc chance to be static.

wanton pond
#

whats MA?

wary ice
#

lol

#

Master assassin

It competes with Subterfuge

#

The new trinket from the world boss, is it workign to sim it? i cant seem to get it to sim correctly

wanton pond
#

ah

fleet anchor
#

(That’s also not considering that MA also increases the damage vis crits itself)

#

I mean the trait is p balanced now after the nerf, its just not SS

wary ice
#

I think it woulda been cooler if it intereacted with poisons

#

ie: damage came from mastery

#

opens up a poison build

#

Probably still balance issues

languid dawn
#

anyone elses SS stop procing again?

fleet anchor
#

When you consider the damage increase from MA crits as well

#

The difference between non-MA and MA on 7 targets is like 15.3x vs. 61.25x

#

lol

cinder yoke
#

we've had a version of MA for ~3 years

wary ice
#

MA EB was like ~14 globals per global in a pull of like 3

cinder yoke
#

the devs are just shit tier at designing

#

same goes with Zul

wary ice
#

IDK if zul was shit design tbh

cinder yoke
#

3 fights in the last 2 tiers of legion that could heavily use shuriken combo to massively inflate damage, and they didn't see that coming

#

well more than 3, but 3 that people regularly used it on

wary ice
#

again is that a problem with SC or with zul

gloomy steppe
#

What are our best pvp talents for world pvp?

wary ice
#

if a single passive on 1 spec completely nullifies an entire type of encounter

#

the problem probably isnt encounter design

cinder yoke
#

having adds that just don't matter in a fight and can be exploited to inflate damage

#

is shit design

shy axle
#

well thats just nitpickery

cinder yoke
#

that is exactly what SC fed off of

wary ice
#

So are you arguing that SC or Zul was shit design?

hidden anchor
#

Sooooooooo EB is busted in simc I take it?

wary ice
#

eb nerfed, sims not updated to represent that yet

hidden anchor
#

SS still better for dungeons than EB?

cinder yoke
#

it's both really, it's not that hard to make adds an effective threat, and it wouldn't be that hard to design sub around not needing SC for relevance

obtuse robin
#

so eb still busted if u pick ma?

wary ice
#

IDK how u think the adds make no difference in zul unless you're funneling boss damage

dusk sun
#

how is EB looking now?

wary ice
#

12:09 bullfango: eb nerfed, sims not updated to represent that yet
