whatever you sim highest with

bronze kelp
#

exsang gains a lot of value with SS traits

median tiger
#

I will be runnig 2 ss 1 tb 1 echo 1 tc

#

Im not sure about my assa trait

#

1 dd i mean

worldly iron
#

I'm using SS most of the time, I really prefer the playstyle over MA. I'm kinda locked out of not running it at the moment, though

median tiger
#

Master assassin? The one that make ur vendetta give a dots?

worldly iron
#

no, it's the talent you'd chose over subterfuge

median tiger
#

What about the envenom trait?

worldly iron
#

critty crit on leaving stealth

#

the vendetta trait is Nothing Personal

median tiger
#

The one that give envenom extra dmg, is it good to get? Or should i try to get piece with ss and dd and echo?

worldly iron
#

can't say for sure, I know that good rogues on the discord are using it

median tiger
#

I heard the rupture trait is shit?

worldly iron
#

that's basically what I've heard in this discord so far. I don't want to spread misinformation so ¯_(ツ)_/¯ on that one

true gyro
#

Depends probably what ur playing mrdann

median tiger
#

I just want ST

true gyro
#

Some traits are crap in raids but good in m+

median tiger
#

To run on tyrannical week

solid nova
#

Are you looking for gear with traits to farm

#

Or choosing out of what you've already got

shrewd night
#

Assassination have herodamage too, which ranks traits blobhyperthink

median tiger
#

Im getting 415 from raid so assa will be the 400 gear leftover

solid nova
#

So you'll know what traits you're gonna have ye?

median tiger
#

So planning ahead with what i got already

#

Yes

solid nova
#

So, top gear sim?

#

If you're wanting ST

median tiger
#

Oh ok

shrewd night
median tiger
#

Thanks buf

shrewd night
#

Its almost as everything you learned in outlaw got wiped out when entering this chat

median tiger
#

Ikr

#

Cause my outlaw persona got a hate boner for assa

bleak spoke
#

it's almost like the basic things with regards to simming and chasing down traits doesn't change much from spec to spec

silver talon
#

Hey i just started ass and loving it. I dont have the az power just yet but have 3 stacks of DD. Should I be going for something else in the meantime or is that ok?

bronze kelp
#

depends on the content you do the most

#

3 DD is pretty fine for raiding

#

and ST

silver talon
#

I raid with lock but will probably do m+ on rogue

bronze kelp
#

for m+ the traits are not that good

#

cause they offer you no benefit on trashpacks bigger then 2 mobs

silver talon
#

yeah ive been using mut instead of fok with it

bronze kelp
#

go for echoing blade, shrouded suffocation or twist the knife

#

first and last named trait shifts your statprio towards crit

silver talon
#

Yeah i saw haste is last with mythic traits

bronze kelp
#

on aoe yes

#

on bosses if you have to low haste, you will lack of energy

silver talon
#

hmm

#

so do i need to aim for a minimum haste before stacking crit

spice surge
#

Na, just get crit

bronze kelp
#

I for my part got with abou6 6% haste on fortified weeks, and 10-13% haste on tyrannical weeks. after that im stacking crit

silver talon
#

so can just keep a couple haste rings for tyrannical then

bronze kelp
#

jep

#

half of my bags is full with gear to have always the proper stuff with me and my specs 😉

silver talon
#

Guess I have a lot of farming to do

mighty elm
#

when playing master assassin, do you sit on vanish and vendetta till TB is up everytime?

honest mica
#

No

mighty elm
#

you use off CD still?

honest mica
#

Yes

mighty elm
#

i think i looked at top logs and ppl hold it though, APL uses off CD tho

#

like if you know you can hold vanish vendetta for 10-15 sec and not lose out on any in the whole fight, i guess u hold on it then?

honest mica
#

If its like a 2 second wait then sure but otherwise on cooldown.

#

Its all situational

mighty elm
#

yeah I guess. Ive just always played SS and subterfuge

#

gotta get used to this :/

spice surge
#

There is no point in not holding vendetta for ~5ish seconds for tb

#

You dont need tb to be ready, you just need tb to have less than 11 seconds cd when you use vendetta

mighty elm
#

i mean if youre in a 5min 30sec fight lets say. why wouldnt you hold.

#

well, were talking about the crit window with master assassin

spice surge
#

There is no point not holding

mighty elm
#

Im just trying to think where youd benefit by not holding

#

if you for sure know you'd get same amount of vendetta's in

spice surge
#

?

#

There is none

#

Unless you need the cds on exact timings or lose a cast, you lose nothing by delaying

mighty elm
#

so i should be delaying then.

buoyant coyote
#

Outlaw or HB with 3 EB on opulence?

dark crag
#

Vendetta is 120sec, tb is 25 sec, 5x 25 is 125, 5 sec is not the world

buoyant coyote
#

Mythic ofc

true gyro
#

I wouldnt use either lol. The adds are alive suchh a short period

buoyant coyote
#

So outlaw?

quartz rune
#

What ? You only have the chance to use 3 EB or?

true gyro
#

I atleast did it with full st traits as assa

patent topaz
#

I run ruby as assa on opulence, spec is too slow for that imo

true gyro
#

Ye had to do the Same Last time

dark crag
#

I couldn't stack ruby alone on one golem

true gyro
#

Got the 415 dagger as reward tho

patent topaz
#

we cant even get into p2 without deaths consistently, after 5 hours

lost sentinel
#

I am hoping for a 410 dagger from weekly, feel like I am due since we're like 4 weeks in now or w/e

#

maybe I'll get super lucky and WF

bronze kelp
#

410 only from weekly?

lost sentinel
#

up to 420 if it warforges

bronze kelp
#

youre a humble player arent you ?

#

XD

true gyro
#

Ye up till yesterday was running 2x385's

lost sentinel
#

I got 400s so fast, even multiple heh

bronze kelp
#

thats hard

lament dove
#

I still run a socketed 385 offhand

bronze kelp
#

offhand is not that important

lost sentinel
#

I'm the only rogue in my raid so if an agi dagger drops it doesn't leave me lol

quartz rune
#

I better dont say anything.. 420 with socket and 415 daggers xD

true gyro
#

Yet you still said ;p

lost sentinel
#

technically my best offhand for M+ is a 395 pvp one with gemslot, but it's like only 1% better and I don't feel like getting it enchanted lol

#

I probably should though

dark crag
#

Enchants are cheap

bronze kelp
#

way too cheap

#

but still profession to make gold with

median tiger
#

1k for an enchant

#

yet no one buying mine

lost sentinel
#

yeah, it's not about cost, just was lazy about it for a meager 1%

#

probably not even 1% tbh

cobalt pelican
#

1% is pretty significant to be honest

summer marten
#

as far as i know weekly already is warforged from 400 to 410 by default, so cant go above

median tiger
#

1% is good enough for 1k gold

#

dont be a cheap ass

lost sentinel
#

I literally just said it's not about cost

median tiger
#

go level ur enchanter!!

summer marten
#

so if its weapon its max 410 from weekly

lost sentinel
#

it can warforge still

median tiger
#

my rogue is my enchanter so i can get whatever i want

lost sentinel
#

afaik

median tiger
#

to 425

lost sentinel
#

to 420

summer marten
#

it already is warforged +10

#

so would be titanforged and it cant be that

cobalt pelican
#

it can and is labeled as warforged if you get a +10 forge from the weekly chest dagger

#

i don't know what i just typed it makes no sense

summer marten
#

i have a lot of items from weekly, they are all 410 mythic 10 warforged

median tiger
#

just u wait, imma get a 425 weapon from cache and show u

#

:)))

summer marten
#

because mythic 10 is actually 400ilvl

#

just weekly adds warforged 10 to it

bronze kelp
#

@summer marten it can proc top 420 in weekly chest

median tiger
#

show him a pic

#

he aint buying it

summer marten
#

but then it would be titanfroged wpn

bronze kelp
#

it is

summer marten
#

i was under the imrpession thtat weapons cant titanforge?

bronze kelp
#

and m+ cache weapons are the only one the can titanforge

summer marten
#

ah ok

lost sentinel
#

the base level is 410, so it should be able to hit 420

summer marten
#

never got weapon in there anyway, so never seen it

royal torrent
#

It’s just a labeling issue from weekly. The WF / TF doesn’t actually mean anything.

bronze kelp
#

yep

lost sentinel
#

so yeah, says TF but it's still just +10 over the base level

bronze kelp
#

thats the point

summer marten
#

silly way to label them...

median tiger
#

see there we go

bronze kelp
#

i bet that its harder to relabel it, then to just let it be that way

summer marten
#

yea np, i was ok with it as soon as fahwi said its possible only from weekly 😃

lament dove
#

why? if you got a 420 from m10, that's a titanforged, no?

bronze kelp
#

yep

lament dove
#

they are labeled as if they were m10 drops, that's all

lost sentinel
#

from m10 end of dungeon you can only get up to 410

summer marten
#

yea, the only issue is that weapons cant titanforge usually, only from weekly chest

bronze kelp
#

genai had a problem for weapons to be TF, when they actually dont exist XD

summer marten
#

and i didnt know that exception

bronze kelp
#

😉

summer marten
#

even more since i never got weapon from it... or raid... or anywhere and still have 385 weapons while being 403 avg

shrewd night
#

Yall are special. Items from dungeons have a baselevel of 400. Items from cache are 410 base, but the game doesnt recognize that its from the cache, meaning its labeled as a warforge despite being baselevel. Weapons can therefore 'warforge' on top of the base ilevel of 410. The game doesnt recognize that this item is from a cache and thinks the item dropped from a dungeon. Since the game thinks its a 20 itemlevel upgrade from dungeon base, its labeled as a titanforge.

#

Cant believe this is still a thing so far into the expansion.

summer marten
#

why wouldnt it be if people never seen different?

median tiger
#

cause no one care...

bronze kelp
#

i wouldnt even care if its labeled "myhtic 14" XD

median tiger
#

see?

bronze kelp
#

what counts is the ilvl and if its an upgrade

#

but okay, thats enough off-topic/wow-general stuff here

median tiger
#

crossing finger for tonight cache

#

i might stream

#

this week been nice to me

lost sentinel
#

I think there is a increasing chance to get a weapon from chest if you failed the previous weeks?

#

Is that true?

cobalt pelican
#

used to be true for azerite now isn't true for any items as far as i know since azerite got moved to residuum

solid nova
#

@lost sentinel Thats called bad luck protection, its been a thing for a long while

shrewd night
lost sentinel
#

Yeah, thought so

median tiger
#

wait for real?

lost sentinel
#

last week I got the same ring I got the previous week, but with +speed on it... hope that doesn't happen again lol

median tiger
#

i havent gotten trinket for weeks

lost sentinel
#

trinkets don't have the bad luck protection afaik, only weapons

median tiger
#

so im likely to pull a weapon then

#

cause i never gotten a weapon either

lost sentinel
#

I wonder if it reset between seasons, though I don't remember when I last got a weapon

torn bear
#

Are you sure back luck protection for weapon is a thing I've ran M+ every week since release and only ever gotten 1 weapon?

median tiger
#

helllooo

#

there are ppl that didnt even get 1

lost sentinel
#

I got at least 3 last season

bronze kelp
#

i got one 2 weeks ago for assa 😃 maybe this time for outlaw 😉

cobalt pelican
#

not convinced it's a thing, blizzard only ever confirmed azerite having bad luck protection on the cache

#

i know there's been bad luck on rolls for like

#

years

#

but that's irrelevant to the cache really

shrewd night
#

Depending on the amount of bad luck protection you could still go years without anything of meaning if you keep hitting the sweet spot 🤷

copper kestrel
#

For Conclave raptors. Should I be multidotting? (spamming step/sprint to reduce downtime between) Or tunneling them down one at a time?
I assume multidotting within reason (they're close / my raid doesn't need the single target)

peak rune
#

Hey what is better for m+ CT or Hiddenblades

vestal wren
#

!ct

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.

gray saddle
#

Question, for M+, i currently have 3 SS, 1 EB, 1 NP and 1 DD, I could change it to 2SS and 2EB

#

should I stick with 3SS?

full pagoda
#

@copper kestrel I'm not 100% sure but I think the ranged classes gotta deal with it mostly. For example if a raptor is gripped or nearby you can do some dmg but it looks stupid to me to chase them, while they get melted, while you get energy capped. Had an argument with my raid leader about it tho.

#

@gray saddle 2ssand 2 eb and two of what?

gray saddle
#

2 SS 2 EB 1 NP 1 DD

desert vault
#

More eb the better I think

gray saddle
#

or 3SS 1 EB 1 NP 1 DD

desert vault
#

I want six of them

gray saddle
#

thats what I thought, EB was doing ridculous damage last night for me

full pagoda
#

First

gray saddle
#

so I wondered if I should change one of my SS out

desert vault
#

I would say first as well

#

I want 3 eb, 1 ss, then either dd, no or tc in an ideal world

full pagoda
#

The more crit, the better EB gets, the more CPs, the more dmg

gray saddle
#

awesome, thank you very much 😃

desert vault
#

I of course rolled a new ring that is like 380 mast and 120 crit :(

#

Was so close to winning the game

desert vault
#

So I can finally run 3x EB and with that you just FoK pretty much all of the time? Like 2+ targets just FoK?

#

and, hrmm, 2x DD or 1x DD and 1x NP this week ... has to be pretty close I'd bet

ashen ermine
#

410 Galecaller's out of chest BLESS

strange python
#

How low do I dare to drop my Mastery without loosing to much dmg on Crit?

desert vault
#

is there any way to look at m+ sin players, to see like their stats/traits/etc on raider.io?

worldly iron
#

as far as I'm aware, 3x EB just gimps your ST damage too much

desert vault
#

It hurts a bit, but I think most are still running it when they can. With 2x DD it can help recoup some of it

spice surge
#

Dont run DD and EB

#

DD is just bad for m+

lost sentinel
#

this week I could see myself setting EB aside, bursting and tyrranical

blazing summit
#

is there a way to sim azerite gear you have at a different ilvl?

spice surge
#

You just want a mix of EB/SS/TTK depending on how much cleave/aoe/singletarget you want

#

@blazing summit Raidbots

desert vault
#

Oh, huh I had one guy telling me DD wasn't terrible but I kind of figured NP was better than DD

blazing summit
#

@spice surge yes I know I use raidbots but how do you change the ilvl of the piece you want to sim

desert vault
#

I can do 3x EB, 1x SS, 1x NP and 1x TtK which is feels decent

spice surge
#

Gear compare

desert vault
#

If you run 3x EB do you need to run Hidden Blades as well?

polar bridge
#

is raidbots updated for NP being top trait now? top gear is telling me to go 2x DD even though those slots could be NP

fringe lily
#

NP lose value after 1 no?

polar bridge
#

according to bloodmallet and herodamage its the best trait to stack

primal gazelle
#

Imagine a 3 EB / 3 TTK combo for MDI season, with MA and deeper strat and play it exactly like you would as a sub rogue except more aoe 🤔

#

since alot of the strats will involve 3-4 pack pulls and pulling reapings into boss

desert vault
#

Wait, when did I miss NP becoming best ... hehe, guess I should check things more often 😐

spice surge
#

NP still loses a lot of value after the first one

#

Its not a bad trait after the first one, but DD is better

desert vault
#

Oh, thought so, so still trying to stack DD or SS better than NP stacked

polar bridge
#

so is bloodmallet wrong then orrr

spice surge
#

Its not

#

You're just reading it wrong

polar bridge
#

how do I read it

#

to me it looks like 3x np does 2718 dps and 3x dd does 2487

strong needle
spice surge
#

.

#

The first point of NP gives more damage per trait

#

Than the ones after

strong needle
#

But according to them, 3 NP is better than 3 DD

polar bridge
#

2nd trait of NP is +815 while 2nd trait of DD is +811

primal gazelle
#

anyone know if on the tournament realm, if our characters will be 400 equipped or 415 equipped from the vendor gear?

polar bridge
#

so even the 2nd stack of NP is better than 2nd of DD

#

if raidbots is correct, which is why im asking

spice surge
#

4 dps is literally nothing, so they're the same

#

Yes raidbots is correct

strong needle
#

4 dps is only for the second trait tho

desert vault
#

Man, I should have bought shoulders ... oh well, at least chest was SS+EB so can't be toooooo mad

strong needle
#

1631 vs 1855 for 2 traits

spice surge
#

Yes, but for the second trait only its the same dps, same with the third

#

FIrst trait of NP is better, as ive said, then they're pretty much equal on bloodmallet

strong needle
#

Ok I get what you mean

#

So one or the other should not matter

polar bridge
#

what does herodamage pull from because its trait values are even more weird

warm canopy
#

Are secondary foods better than feasts now since agi sims lower?

ashen ermine
fading wigeon
#

!azerite

prisma monolithBOT
lost sentinel
#

I just go with the feast when someone provides it

#

but in M+ I go for crit

#

when no feast is provided in raid, I go for haste

royal lantern
#

ill always use the ''new'' mainstat food

#

170 agility is good for aoe

modest badge
#

does the item upgrade tool tip go off your worst weapon or best?

warm sable
#

I don't know about you ... but i would take 1xEB 1xTC 2-3xSS and as much as i can 2-3xSoB for M+ .... as i see noone even said anything about SoB but i think its op for M+

open compass
#

Does Nothing Personal stack?

round harbor
#

@warm sable it's decent especially if running pb or hb

languid ore
#

The damage portion not the energy @open compass

rose perch
#

@open compass the damage component does the energy does not - so the first copy is very very good and the second/third are just good

languid ore
#

What is it like 40k per np?

real bay
#

does like 60k for me, depends on your mastery etc

open compass
#

That’s exactly what I thought. Thanks @rose perch 🙂

copper kestrel
#

Is bloodmallet or herodamage more reliable for azerite/trinket power? Looking at both is exhausting

sturdy python
#

Herodamage for rogue

#

It’s ran by one of the Shadows here

true gyro
#

anyone tried simming mythic rastakhan? any tips?

golden relic
#

sim for what

true gyro
#

top gear :p

golden relic
#

traits u mean?

true gyro
#

well traits yes and few other pieces i have

#

guess i'll just check logs what ppl use there mostly :p

rose perch
#

yeah SS and shrouded will definitely be best for overall dmg on that fight since it starts with a 3/4 tgt portion

#

and if you're an upstairs gamer there's another cleave portion halfway through the fight

#

and you can maybe even vanish/vendetta at the same time as zombie dust totems

#

but if you're just a boss damage optimizer (which you certainly can be on this fight, it's the most important thing) then you can just do whatever you normally do

true gyro
#

ye, think im gonna go with 1x SS, 2x DD, 2x NP, 1x TC :p

#

those are probably the best traits i can pull off with current gear

rose perch
#

that sounds pretty great

true gyro
#

fun times ahead today then :p

copper kestrel
#

Anyone know why the Razzashi trinket isn't on on the pre-sim sites? Trying to determine if I should be rolling to replace my 400 with a 400 kimbuls/oscilating. My gut says no, since I will hopefully get something from M+ one of these days.

https://www.wowhead.com/item=165667/razzashi-tooth-medallion?bonus=4803:1592:4784&ilvl=400

My other trinket is a socketed yu'lon's

hollow stone
#

I personally just run full st for rasta. Ss is good for opener and decent for p3 but p3 just has 2 targets active when youd vanish so its ehhhh. And my group had enough cleave that tunnelling big boi to avoid another leap, and then pumping on boss was more beneficial. Your plan sounds good, i just wanted to provide another perspective @true gyro

strange python
#

On rasta focus more on priority target damage than Details damage, my tips for that encounter.

true gyro
#

Ye idd. Im not one that cares that much about high parses. Rather focus on what matters the most :p

#

Cause I could go with ma/tb with 3dd and 3np as well gear wise

copper kestrel
#

Debating 2 NP, 1DD v 1 NP&2DD. Sim the same.
Is one more reliable? (I like DD to not be as CD reliant)

@copper kestrel if sim is same, you do you. Id go 2dd if it were me

Well, bought a 415 shoulder, was a dps downgrade from my 400 ones, feelsgood

33% chance to get trash and cry

I’ve gotten everything from champions but the helmet goodluck brother

hard estuary
#

so, i simmed and the highest stats now is mastery, should i change my enchant rings?

hollow stone
#

I dont think that math adds up @primal gazelle

#

Unless the 16 is included in the 66, of course

primal gazelle
#

would make sense that it is

#

bis is included in "upgrade"

Pfff. Bis is barely and upgrade PiratePoggers

and if im using 3 double dose and 1 echo blade do i fok at 3 or 4 target in m+?

bleak spoke
#

5+ targets without EB

#

and dd

#

2+ targets with EB

#

really really don't recommend playing DD in dungeons or ignoring it if you have it

you should ignore it* if you have it rather

#

for shadowmeld garrote am i correct in understanding, apply at any time in pandemic on a normal garrote and then do not overwrite similar to a normal empowered garrote?

rose perch
#

Ideally apply just at the start of the pandemic window

golden relic
#

could some1 tell me what that OP Timewalking gear setup for assa was, some1 posted a set just garroting mobs or smth and them dieing

civic stag
#

which spell last tier talent should I pick for m+?

near willow
#

for tw easiest is prob just bracers and the ravenholdt ring with 3x ss azerite. you could go mantle but you ditch azerite shoulders. could also run 3x eb with hidden blades and leggo cape. then add in fun trinkets but thats overkill.

golden relic
#

saw some1 using t20 or smth

#

cuz of the 4 set garrote dmg

#

but i dont recall all the specifics

where is the option to sim only ring enchants or gems?

Top gear, enchants n gems. Just select the ones you wanna sim

What traits are you fellas running this week for M+?

#

Im having a hard time deciding how many echo's I should run

#

Two maybe?

cobalt gyro
#

3 SS 2 EB 1 TTK is what I'm running

#

More because i don't have a third eb, but ya

velvet geyser
#

Yeah, that seems right

#

I was thinking 3xss, 2eb, 1np

#

I can run 3xss and 3x eb

civic forge
#

3ss 3 eb is def the best m+ setup imo

cobalt gyro
#

Ya

velvet geyser
#

Yeah for sure. Just thinking about giving just a little extra ST kick for tyranical

#

But there is always more trash than bosses

grave elk
#

so would poison bomb be suggested for M+ this week cuz of tyranical?

civic forge
#

if you're group is weak in boss damage then sure

visual quartz
#

got a 385 dagger haste/mast, that is simming higher than a 375 crit/mast with a haste socket dagger. I lose 1%haste and 1% crit but the OH dmg makes it sim higher. Just oddly confused

raw fox
#

You guys think Sin is stronger for M+ this week?

final stone
#

Do you guys use stat food or food based on top stat weight!?

cosmic pier
#

do a stat weight sim and figured out whether 100 main stat or your top secondary stat food is better

#

in raid i eat feasts provided for free, but dungeons I eat crit food (for eb)

I got pistoleer spaulders 3x in a row as well. frigging garbage.

wispy cargo
#

for raiding i see that the sites are saying 3x NP is now bis but when i sim it is still saying i should use 3 dd any reason why?

civic forge
#

because NP has huge value at 1 trait and then is less valuable as you get more (but still powerful), whereas DD is good to stack

#

as always, trust sims tho

wispy cargo
#

kk just hero.blood mallet made it seem stacking 3 was best but ill try to just get 3x for both i guess

primal gazelle
#

the spymaster/ceph is bis for m+ from the vendor
the rainment is bis for m+

@raven mica

civic forge
#

need to check by stack

wispy cargo
#

i got it

civic forge
#

on the hero damage site

wispy cargo
#

i have 415 cowl/mag shoulders and spy chest

spice surge
#

Spymaster isn't bis. Ceph Sims higher

#

Because overwhelming power is too stronk

raven mica
#

also so siege chest
got it

primal gazelle
#

i dont think its worth to target it though

#

would take like... 7-10 weeks to get a targeted piece

#

fuck that

#

by then the content isnt relevant

raven mica
#

When you get the third duplicate in a row

#

you get fed up

spice surge
#

Takes like 5 weeks if you get some pieces to DE

#

But yes

primal gazelle
#

thats true but getting the same piece 3x in a row doesnt affect your future chances of getting it

#

5 Weeks... assuming you do a +22 every week for 1030 TR, you would need to scrap 2k TR to get a target piece

raven mica
#

Well considering how that would be the start of april

#

and how I already have 1k TR saved up

primal gazelle
#

by april id assume you can already kill m mekka for the chest

spice surge
#

Idk, mekka isn't gonna be that zergable

raven mica
#

I'm probably gonna kill Opulence tonight.

#

If that gives you any sense of the prog im at

primal gazelle
#

it will be with all the inc nerfs that blizz does to mythic

spice surge
#

Can't nerf mekka much without removing any of the mechanics

civic palm
#
Mekkatorque bots now put the colored image that you need to press over your head when you enter the bot.
raven mica
#

that's the LFR mechanic isnt it?

primal gazelle
#

4 out of the 6 dungeon helms has EB on it, i like my odds 🤔

spice surge
#

The robots isn't even the hard part in pugs imo

civic palm
#

What are people blowing people up?

heavy skiff
#

prisma monolithBOT
hollow stone
#

Other than people just not paying attention, the only challenge imo for mekka is when you get multiple mechanics on you at once. Like bomb, warp, and toss up/sheep. Which is rare

civic palm
#

It is at least enjoyable.

hollow stone
#

I love it. Best boss in a long long time for me

stable pine
#

Anyone actuallly have 3xSS and 3EB that are running high keys can tell me how much of a god you are?

hollow stone
#

Prog has been so fun. Hoping we get it tonight if our reclear is fast or tomorrow. Then onto the bench for blockade :p

#

Calling all @primal gazelles. This guy wants you to flex on him

fleet whale
#

what should i take Elemental whirl vs Gutripper

civic palm
#

Let's check the liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiist...

fleet whale
#

i know they are both kind of mediocore

civic palm
#

No one is clearly better than the other, especially when there are adds.

fleet whale
#

so i guess if i don't want to reforge all the time whirl is the more safe choice?

civic palm
#

It's more than fine.

fleet whale
#

ok, thank you, got decent 415 shoulders, DD and NP

primal gazelle
#

i dont have 3 ss 3 eb so no flexing from me 😦

civic palm
#

Noice.

strange python

is that a real mecha change?

raw fox
#

damn nice man!

#

You play sin exclusively?

primal gazelle
#

yes, outlaw is too big brain for me

#

im only capable of pressing fok

hollow stone
#

I love it when you fok dirty

#

Man, i thought you did run 3ss 3eb. Whomp whomp. Whatever, he should be more impressed given that you dont, i guess??

#

Lol

primal gazelle
#

im using 3 eb 2 ss 1 sob 400/415/400

raw fox
#

im 414 in outlaw gear and im trying to play both specs. but having 2 crafted leatherworking slots with crit versa is killing my haste values

primal gazelle
#

crit verse is actually bis for 3 EB playstyles lol

stable pine
#

@primal gazelle do you just FOK during reaping or use finisher between each FOK?

raw fox
#

I'm thinkin of what to do this week for keys.

#

I only have 1 piece with EB SS

primal gazelle
#

@stable pine grab a WA that shows how many targets within a 10yd radius, finish if less than 7, keep foking if 7 or more

stable pine
#

dafuk didnt even know a WA for number of targets exist - churchurboi

primal gazelle
#

should probably play outlaw if you dont have 3 EB tbh

raw fox
#

I'll do just that then.

#

Simming for 700 dps less in ST right now as Sin

#

Just need better daggers.

stable pine
#

anyone got a disc that has premium raidbot so i can leech? lol

primal gazelle
#

im considering gemming for haste this week for tyrannical since my ST is kinda gimped with 4 aoe traits (3 eb 1 sob)

#

desperately need to replace that sob

stable pine
#

you need another ss babe

fleet whale
#

i'm still rocking a 385 off-hand dagger.

#

One day oppulence will drop his dagger, one day...

#

Does the azerite Nothing Personal stack? or is it just on 1 piece?

cobalt gyro
#

The damage does

#

The energy does not

gray walrus
#

oke ty @cobalt gyro

timber mauve
#

does my versatility need to hit a certain number to make 3 NP sim higher then 2 NP 1 TC?

mighty elm
#

When running Master assa without any SS on lets say jadefire or champion of the light, do you wait with dotting any targets untill your vendetta is over on main target?

devout bone
#

confirm / deny that bloodmallet / herodamage sims are bugged for 2x and 3x nothing personal? it is still a one point wonder?

civic forge
#

i wouldn't say that. NP is still very strong after 1 trait, but trust sims

thorn fjord
#

If i'm running 2 double dose should i be running MP?

spice surge
#

Mp only affects deadly poison

#

So no

thorn fjord
#

2 DD 1 SS

#

ah ok thanks

winter gale
#

Is posion bomb good in m+ atm? It simmed better for me than Crimson Tempest.

#

Didnt play that much in this season

civic forge
#

all 3 in that talent row have use in m+

hollow stone
#

@mighty elm yea. Dont multidot during your vendetta. Either do it ahead of time or after, not during

mighty elm
#

i see @hollow stone , so on jade you'd dott both before vendetta ?

hollow stone
#

I havent done jade in a while. Got shoulders first kill. I ran ss that kill so i dont know. I would prob open normal st on monk, and dot up mage after vend. Maybe somebody with more recent/similar traits can chime in here

mighty elm
#

maybe i should just stick with SS and subterfuge on that boss, master assa with 3DD sims 410 more dmg for me so wanna adabt to it

hollow stone
#

Is it prog or are you looking to parse?

mighty elm
#

both

#

got rank 2 mekka last night with SS 😄

hollow stone
#

Id go for your st highest simming build then. Getting monk down asap makes the fight waaaaaay easier

#

Im talking mythic

mighty elm
#

yeah m2

hollow stone
#

Just to make sure we're on same page

mighty elm
#

yes ofc, im no hc pleb

hollow stone
#

Everyone progresses differently. Never know 😬

mighty elm
#

tru hahaa

hollow stone
#

Anyway, id stick w your ma build, focus hard into monk. Multi dot mage after opener. And then just keep dots up on mage when its convenient. For a kill, the faster monk dies the better

#

Less seven sided strikes

#

And we can clear like 10 traps in phoenix phase with 1 cloak sprint so space is not really an issue

mighty elm
#

alright, asked about jadefire mostly to just know how ppl would deal with a boss with cleave

smoky fiber
#

one of the top parses for jadefire runs no SS and subt, just check logs and look at how they casted shit thats what i do

mighty elm
#

never thought subt without SS bein a option monkaS

hollow stone
#

Gotcha. So the thing about this raid is even cleave bosses have prio targets in every encounter so playing MA over SS subt is generally the play. However, ss shines in a few instances (specifically if you want to parse)

bold hearth
#

What top parse are you looking at?

smoky fiber
#

One of Honestly's rogues.

bold hearth
#

That guy is running Subt.

smoky fiber
#

and no SS, like I said.

hollow stone
#

Yea. He said no ss but with subt

smoky fiber
#

looking at my wording, I can see how that might be a little confusing actually.

#

but yeah. I meant running subt, with no SS.

#

He does it on champions/jadefire/rasta with good results

#

And MA the rest

hollow stone
#

I think its actually a really neat variant seeing as how close MA and subt sim even with no ss traits

bold hearth
#

Looking at Jadefire rankings the one that stands out to me is the guy running 2X scent

#

I would guess the Honestly dude just didn't want to swap his gear to include a SS

fresh robin
#

we did it boys, 420 plume this week! anyone get anything awesome? id kill for a dagger that ilvl

hollow stone
#

Probably a good guess. I dont swap traits around for farm bosses either

#

Get outa here jozz. Asking for a dagg after getting that

bold hearth
#

That shit gets expensive, so he probably just swapped to Subt as a small dps increase

hollow stone
#

Gratz tho :p

bold hearth
#

He's also a NE meaning he makes extra use of Subt

desert vault
#

Sad week to have my first decent 3x EB build ... did garbage for numbers in a FH

#

was only a 10 though, so I guess might get better with higher keys perhaps

fresh robin
#

lol thank you, ive been so cucked on my boxes this tier, i pvp and pve so its like double 410s every week

#

and i must have like 7 rings

#

last tier i actually got a wep early and raiding was good, but man my rng is so bad this tier, so im really hype over this 😃

keen inlet
#

Hey getting into assa should i only ever toxic blade after an envenom

fresh robin
#

we've had down the first 3 bosses of mythic raid forever now and still dont have those 415 azerites which are like bis/near bis for sin XD

#

pretty sure u just use it on cd jeffrey

keen inlet
#

kk thanks!

fresh robin
#

like you used to do that, but now in bfa, pretty sure you lose dmg if u hold it

#

i use mine on cd

keen inlet
#

would it be early in your opener?

fresh robin
#

well i dont have SS traits atm, so im running ma, so my opener might be different than urs

#

i usually do something like garotte mutilate rupture

#

then pop vendetta /trinket/racial and vanish TB/mutilate envenom

#

if you sim yourself on raidbots, you can look at the rotation its running

keen inlet
#

alright i'll do that

#

thanks!

you can? nice ill have to check that out

Whats the deal with multiple Nothing Personal + Master Assassin build?

so no

1 simcraft says 2 tc s doesn’t help any?

I personally run one just for combo points on the opener

#

Hello! Do you know if raidbots sim takes into concideration the cooldown of "use" trinkets? It says my bis trinkets are 2 "use" ones, could that be correct?

drifting cloud
#

depending on your other trinkets, but yes it could be

hollow stone
#

Ive been seeing this more and more lately. Yes. Raidbots accounts for on use trinkets properly. Is one of them the mekka trinket? If yes, that trinket does not share cd with other on use trinkets. If no, then, yes, its possible that your 2 on use sim highest. I'll reiterate again (like i have every time this comes up): just because im saying two on use may sim best for you does not mean your goal is to get 2 on use trinkets. Rant over

#

And if ever wanna check out what raidbots is doing to sim. Click the "html report" and you can look at how it sims

#

I believe that was asked earlier too

copper kestrel
#

I've heard folks say that before. Where do I access an example ability order the html report?

rustic ether

harlem trinket?

#

dice?

buoyant kraken
#

does envenom scale on weapon damage?

rustic ether
#

youre a monster if you call it the harlem trinket

#

all dmg scales off weapon dmg a bit i believe

#

deadeye is when you want more crit, dice is when you have a decent amount of crit already and you want a decent amount of all around stats

stable pine
#

So deadeye for M+ and Harlem for ST?

cloak doesnt cancel out bursting stacks does it?

cobalt gyro
#

It does

strange python
#

yup it does

#

how do yall feel about TC vs NP?

civic palm
#

I feel like those are two very different traits.

strange python
#

they're on the same row. and TC sims like 200 dps higher

#

but that's considering 100% uptime

#

so would be safer to pick NP yea?

civic palm
#

For raiding? or what?

strange python
#

this is on my raiding set, yes

civic palm
#

Then I'd follow the SIMs but keep in mind the added value TC has in 2+ target scenarios even though there are not many of them.

#

and that TC functions without you having to have "good" uses of Vendetta or whatever.

strange python
#

this is true, okay.

#

kind of a plug, and stay above 50% vs having to be decent w/ vend

Does 3x EB need Hidden Blades as well to be the best it can or is just 3x EB and PB fine?

just happened again

fresh robin

how far is SS behind mutilate for pure st? it feels so bad not even having 1 SS

1SS and 2DD isnt THAT far behind 3DD if it makes you more comfortable, but its definitely ahead

what is PB Elinkar

#

oh poison bomb

chilly goblet
#

how garbage is sin in m+ with 0 EB traits

#

my best is 3x SS 2 SoB 1 NP

primal gazelle
#

@nimble tartan happened to me once for 2 bosses, 3 dd with 0 dd damage...until i realized i didnt poisons on 🤷

warm harbor
#

@chilly goblet Its a huge disvantage, perhaps on tyran weeks you can get away with it (maybe..?) but the main issue is you are essentially useless (or heavily hindered) during reaping waves

visual quartz
#

2 bosses before you notice? dude the zero energy regen clues me in so fast

warm harbor
#

By stacking EB you go from a horrible class for reaping to a great one

ashen spoke
#

Okay I can't decide where to ask this. I've been playing outlaw every week so far, but my group now has a 17 temple and KR, should I play sin for those? I play with a Dh and Frost mage so i feel they'd be fine handling the big aoe pulls if i went ST build for the bosses. Is 17 even high enough to warrant not just playing sin?

chilly goblet
#

fair enough @warm harbor makes sense, thanks. guess it's time to practice outlaw till my bad azerite luck runs out

ashen spoke
#

not just playing outlaw* i meant

cobalt gyro
#

it depends on your comp

warm harbor
#

@ashen spoke the major issue you might run into is the 3rd boss dps check, overall outlaw will still beat sin on overall but if you have bad rolls during this fight you find yourself way behind on the 3rd boss dps check and your healer will get overwhelmed

cobalt gyro
#

you can get away with sin on KR and temple bc it's pretty small pulls, b ut really the answer will be what you need

#

outlaw loses a lot to spec for m+ compared to sin

primal gazelle
#

got flashpowder hood 😦

ashen spoke
#

Okay thanks for the replies, @warm harbor ye the 3rd boss was what would influence me to choose sin as its consistent. ill discuss it with my group

primal gazelle
#

no EB/SS but still good i guess

cobalt gyro

could be worse

any specific reason why so I understand?

#

thankyou btw

primal gazelle

BOD is very ST oriented

DD > SS in single target sooo

ahhh

thanks Dayvanie

for second ring: Blightborne or Nothing Personal?

hmmm

Thinking blight for the crit

primal gazelle
pale cave
#

bloodmallet puts NP on the top

#

good call thanks ill do that now

river zinc
#

i'm very confused...I'm stacking Double Dose, but it seems nothing personal is what is simming higher as a trait.

violet sonnet
#

NP is the better trait right now.

#

if you're simming single target boss fights

drifting cloud
#

stop being so hung up on 1 trait

#

azerite has 3 traits and ilvl

#

and all of those matter more than if 1 trait sims 100 dps over another one

river zinc
#

but what changed to make that so? like literally monday it was DD and Treach

violet sonnet
#

i think treach got a slight nerf last week

plain thistle
#

monday? no its was more than that

violet sonnet
#

rly?

plain thistle
#

TC got nerfed and nothing personal fixed on simc

#

almost 1 month ago

#

TC got nerfed, and a couple week ago they fixed nothing personal, it wasnt scaling with haste on simc

#

sorry, linked a pt-br wowhead 😛

river zinc
#

ok thank you!

lost sentinel
#

does it do more damage with haste or just tick faster?

copper kestrel
#

Gemhide or shrouded mantle?
does it even matter

hollow stone
#

Doesnt matter. Both of those are pretty trash. Gemhide is completely useless tho so shroud by default lol

desert vault
#

hrmm, 2x EB, 2x SS, 2x NP this week or 2x EB, 2x SS, 1x NP and 1x TC .... sad times no ttk though

#

No eb this week with bursting i would go dd but thats just me

desert vault
#

I'm going to mess with the 2x of each, too lazy and cheap to respec azerite 😃

copper kestrel
#

lol fair

#

For MA. If TB isn't up for Vendetta/Vanish. I should activate vendetta and hold vanish for TB combo, right?

oblique smelt
#

With 3x DD traits at how many targets do i wanna start using fan of knives instead for more damage

warm harbor
#

So, for up to 2 targets only mutil, at 3-4 targets you FoK to poison all tragets and then continue to mutil, at 5+ only fok

oblique smelt
#

peepoLove my hero

copper kestrel
#

For M+, I think I saw someone say Cephlaphode is BiS for M+ (EB+TTK+ OP). Is it that the OP is worth more than the SS I get from Vestments of Indomitbale WIll (from conclave)

warm harbor
#

Probably not, TTK will give you some nice priority dmg but OP loses value with the more targets you have

primal gazelle
#

ceph is bis for ST

#

not m+

muted bay
#

hello guys, i was wondering if for this patch 3x nothing personal trait is better than 3x Double Dose

warm harbor
#

Its fairly even and will depend on your stats (sim yourself!)

muted bay
#

which program do you guys use to sim tarits

#

traits*

warm harbor
#

raidbots is good

muted bay
#

topgear optimization ?

warm harbor
#

so top gear will allow you to pick between all the gear/traits you have in your bags, to sim for items you dont have you can use Gear Compare

muted bay
#

thank you so much

desert vault

huh, 2x EB, 2x SS, 2x NP feels pretty solid in m+

muted bay

this is my current trait setup

for raid that is solid, yeah

I still want 2x NP, DD, SS just for all purpose raid, good for fights with adds, solid for ST

oh wait, the herodamage page has the last modified date, nvm

strange python
#

question for all who play sin in m+, on lower keys, is it necessary to take CT as adds would probably die before it deals full dmg? should i just prioritize FoK, ruptures?

#

lower meaning 1-11 maybe 12 max

iron zinc
#

bloodmallet sims the sinister gladiators badge higher than both my trinks, but raidbots sims the current 2 i have as better. is raidbots the one to listen to?

strange python
#

raidbots would be your go to answer

#

as it takes into account of gear also

nimble tartan
#

raidbots takes the gear you have on into consideration

#

its way more personalized

iron zinc
#

ah okay thats what i thought, just wanted to make sure. thanks homies

stone crescent
#

Do you guys use herodamage or bloodmallet to test which traits are best? They say completely different things for me. Like herodamage says stack SS while bloodmallet says stack double dose

i use raidbots personally

for the reason mentioned above, it goes the same with traits

Imo Outlaw is better for keys compared to assa, even with EB

Especially with reaping

Was thinking for Tyr cause bosses take longer

Ehh sin has it's strengths

Depends on the comp. If you have really good air already then assa might be better cause ST is better

Thats what im thinking. Might be more useful for hard bosses

#

But if you're lacking in aoe I'd definitely take outlaw over EB assa

#

Depends on the key too. I'd take assa over outlaw in KR

strange python
#

so i had a question earlier on sin's aoe during m+. when is it beneficial to take CT? key # wise

cobalt gyro
#

Depends on the dungeon and your group

primal gazelle
#

I wanna meme with 3 eb 3 ttk with MA Deeper strat and pretend to be a sub rogue

cobalt gyro
#

Lmao

#

No ss tho

primal gazelle
#

Who knows that might just be the meta for MDI

#

Pulling reaping into boss for the ttk dmg

#

Etc

cobalt gyro
#

I still think if you're going to do sub rogue strat sub is better

#

But you'd need very specific pulls

strange python
#

so in a case where my group had plenty of aoe, would i just go ST build and during trash pulls, fok and rupture?

#

not speaking of high keys

primal gazelle
#

But sub lacks real aoe

#

MDI is like plowing thru keys lower than your gear level, yolo 3-4 pulls etc. I could see 3 eb 3 ttk being a thing. Insane aoe dmg and priority

strange python
#

whats mdi

steep basin
#

Mythic Dungeon? Invitational

#

Something like that

strange python
#

oh

#

aka out of my skill cap got it

steep basin
#

Lol

stone crescent
#

What do you guys think of NP? Deciding between that and blightborne infusion. 18k DMG doesn't seem like a lot every 2mins

primal gazelle
#

I like NP Bc it’s reliable and consistent

civic palm
#

It's also a lot of DMG.

strange python
#

at what number of adds do you stop using rupture in a multi-target situation? (m+), and with using crimson tempest in a m+, are you just using CT to get the dot rolling, then rupturing? or spamming FoK > CT

steep basin
#

Also the energy gain imo overlooked

copper kestrel
#

Do I cast V.I.G.O.R. trinket on CD or align with CDs?

strange python
#

whats the cd on it?

steep basin
#

1:30

primal gazelle
#

Idt vigor is very good for raid tbh

strange python
#

any sin rogues do m+? gotta pick brains

copper kestrel
#

My trinket game is weak (M+s haven't been kind!)

round harbor
#

me sometimes

#

@marble hemlock is the sin m+ god

strange python
#

i posted a few q's above

#

oh?

round harbor
#

dont use ct imo

#

except maybe in fh and ml

#

its a trap

strange python
#

okay

#

should i just build w/ fok then rupture everything then?

round harbor
#

i believe 5 targets with rup is infinite energy

#

and yes build with fok

#

if two targets it basically your choice if u want to mut or fok. depending on if you want to focus dmg on one a little more or need to refresh DP on the off targtet

strange python
#

ah okay yeah i read that in the guide

#

thanks for answering, i'll play around without CT for now

round harbor
#

if u wanna get better just watch his stream

#

seli's

#

just watch what he does and copy it to some degree

strange python
#

gotcha

hazy skiff
#

with double or triple echo-ing blades is sin viable in m+?

#

or is outlaw still life?

primal gazelle
#

i wish seli logged

#

so i can stalk his numbers

round harbor
#

oh i figured out the active dps number is pretty much ur details dps

primal gazelle
#

how do i filtuer by active dps

#

oh i see it

#

nice

rustic ether
#

@hazy skiff it is 100% viable, you just have to put in alot more brian work than outlaw

#

gotta know when reaping is to pool energy/prep bleeds so you have infinite energy, etc.

#

also have to be really good at knowing when to restealth. high keys, most tanks are able to chain pull for a good portion of the dungeon so sin rogues have the task of trying to restealth lol

grizzled jay
#

Stupid question but do you cast vigor when it reaches 6 stacks or when the 6 stack is just about to fall off.

cerulean walrus
#

Cast vigor?

grizzled jay
#

Mekka trinket

cerulean walrus
#

Oh that

#

Probably right before drop for maximum uptime

quick ice
#

it doesn't matter when during the 6 stack you cast it

#

you get 12sec at whatever stack level you use it no matter what

#

it puts the timer on pause

worldly iron
#

what he meant was that he'd cast it right before it starts going down again, instead of popping it immediately upon reaching max crit

cerulean walrus
#

Exactly

quick ice
#

yeah, but it still doesn't matter. you get the exact same period of max crit either way?

#

so pop it as soon as possible once its at full crit to put it on CD as soon as possible

grizzled jay
#

Yeah I tried doing that also and seemed to work "better" by just doing an eye test and not counting. My little brain was just confused

odd hatch
#

am i the only one who constantly has broken azerite traits

#

like every other day my nothing personal trait wont give me the extra boost

raven mica
#

My ST azerite piece has ruinous bolt on it.

#

AKA that trait breaks more often than it works.

worldly iron
#

my ruinous bolt pulled a goddamn boss in m+ once, I hate it

raven mica
#

reforge that shit to echo'ing blades

worldly iron
#

I couldn't be bothered reforging my pieces for m+ yesterday so I just rolled with it

raven mica
#

im legit about to start running echoing blades in ST

#

or stay stuck playing outlaw

worldly iron
#

letting the price cool down a bit

#

gonna be doing single target mostly today and tomorrow anyways, so I'm sitting on it

grizzled jay
#

How many bursting stacks you guys think we should stop at in this wonderful week?

steep obsidian
#

that answer is going to be different

#

if you go 1 and then keep extending to 8 you gonna wipe

#

if you burst 8 mobs down instantly that is healable

#

ask your healer what they can deal with 😛

grizzled jay
#

1st situation is rookie shit

#

So 7-8 stacks is healable ok. Def gonna ask every healer just to be sure

terse hinge
#

Brilliant thing to hear going into a group

raven mica
#

be nice to ur healer and limit it to 4-5 stacks

#

also dont do shrine

primal gazelle
#

You can just pop vigor at anytime as long as it’s 6 stacks

#

It’ll still be 12 secs total regardless of when you press it as long as it’s at 6

raven mica
#

pop vigor?

worldly iron
#

so there's no absolute min/maxing with the trinket? it's not worth waiting for like half a second with max crit in order to extend the duration to 12.5s? I'm guessing he meant it like that, I don't even have it, I dunno ¯_(ツ)_/¯

hallow sage
#

@worldly iron it pauses the timer on it. if you pop it the second you hit 6 stacks, it will do the paused duration, then the normal duration of the 6 stacks, before going down again.

worldly iron

Guys. Question. We are progressing on Mythic Mekka (Azerite chest drop). I have 2.3k TR. Would you hope for the best to get the SoB chest? Or wait for Mekka chest chance/ wait for 7k?

real bay
#

depends what you have now

marble hemlock
#

ready for m+ ❤

real bay
#

the tier is over when you have 7k

flint jetty
#

IMO it's not worst saving the 7k at all

real bay
#

I mean if you're at mekka now you likely have done Jaina by that time

flint jetty
#

I bought relinq shoulders and rolled Gorak Tol Mantle which are better than raid shoulders, so it can pay off.

real bay
#

same

#

Just a shitty chest left

flint jetty
#

Lol yeah. Got Champs helm, Gorak Tul w/e shoulders and not just need to get something better to replace my chest from M Grong

what azerite traits/talents are the go to in 8.1 now?

strange python
#

what do you guys think should i change the traits on my shoulders?

scarlet sequoia
#

ur asking if u should change double dose and go eb for m+?

strange python
#

yep

#

but since its tyranical i thought i should stick more to single target

grizzled jay
#

@marble hemlock sick setup for this weeks big tyrannical bois

marble hemlock
#

even for forti ttk is pretty gud, other classes can carry aoe and you focus more on evening out mob-hp

strange python
#

@marble hemlock you're not using any DD on tyr?

marble hemlock
#

nah

#

dd is useless on trash

#

not worth playing a trait for only bosses when you still spent over half your time hitting trash

strange python
#

id agree with you on fort weeks

grizzled jay
#

Guessing I need to roll chest then to get that setup

cloud iris
#

@marble hemlock whats the reasoning for playing only one SS this week in particular?

marble hemlock
#

idk, i just feel that ss is overrated

grizzled jay
#

SS doesn't scale right?

marble hemlock
#

the damage does, cp doesnt

#

theres few aoe pulls where you can utilize the 3 garrotes in an efficient manner

#

by hitting 3 high hp mobs while the other mobs have less hp, making them die evenly

grizzled jay
#

In the sense of scaling with you getting better overall gear with more agi and crit., compared to TTK

marble hemlock
#

usually you just make sure one mob dies faster, and then you gotta clean up the rest anyway, so its not like its a very time-efficient dps trait

vast forum
#

I wanna try ss/3xttk/2xeb

grizzled jay
#

You will enjoy being a pseudo sub rogue with 100k envenoms

marble hemlock
#

if you ahve 10 mobs, and you need 30sec to kill them, doesnt really matter whether you deal big or slightly less damage to 3 of those 10 mobs, pack will still last 30sec :/

vast forum
#

I don't have the gear for it but that's the dream

grizzled jay
#

Opulance helm and rasta shoulders is a good start

#

Chest from conc

marble hemlock
#

people are incredibly focused on high overall right now

#

but literally any class can do decent or good aoe

#

few classes can do good prio

#

or high ST, which is more time efficient imo

quick ice
#

overall is easier to track, probably

grizzled jay
#

Yeah I gave the 3SS exang build another shot last week and could definitely see a difference on the big reaping mobs living longer

marble hemlock
#

you can definitely still run a very strong aoe setup with 3ss/3eb or something like 1ss/2scent/3eb and running exsang+ct

cloud iris
#

Wait even with one SS u still play exsang in m+ right?

marble hemlock
#

but at that point you might as well just play outlaw

grizzled jay
#

Exactly

marble hemlock
#

i like the flexibility assa has in terms of traits and gameplay once youre locked into traits

#

outlaw has good prio aswell thanks to wits, but it requires you to use BF, assa can choose at will

#

if i wanna prio, i prio. if i wanna do aoe, i just spam fok 😃

vast forum
#

I tried hb yday in a ml, went pretty well

#

A fully stacked fok with 2eb does decent dmg on st

cloud iris
#

3SS-2EB-1TTK vs 2SS-2EB-2TTK vs 3TTK-2SS-1EB

#

Choices choices

grizzled jay
#

2nd one for more balance

#

Def can run 1EB tho

cloud iris
#

Yea @marble hemlock almost conviced me to go for the 3rd option

grizzled jay
#

Ran the 3rd setup and it's a fair bit less pad dmg on risen souls but sick crits

#

You'd need seli's chest to run 2EB and 1SS which would be ideal

#

So gl on random azerite

cloud iris
#

Next week hopefully 😁

#

I don't get how people already got those insane traits gathered

#

You must be using 390 ilvl pieces or something

cloud iris
#

The raid bosses actually have some nice pieces

quick ice
#

luck helps a lot too

cloud iris
#

But yea luck helps, got opu mythic head on first kill 😁

grizzled jay
#

You can get a good 400 setup from raid alone which is enough to push quite a bit in M+. 415 is a luxury

full pagoda
#

Cos I got bis traits for ST but suck ass in M+. And even when I get a good azurite piece in raid for M+ it's given to someone else

grizzled jay
#

Trinkets and good stats will matter more

#

That's unlucky aya

#

😔

full pagoda
#

How much the ilvl difference matters between 400 and 415 ilvl JUST BY STATS

#

I know traits are more important but I'm kinda scared to lose stats haha

grizzled jay
#

Having a very good trait setup is more important than running with random 415 just cause they are 415

does anybody use Venom Rush at all? Or is there a situation where it would be good?

Try popping hero/gcb and casting vendetta

It's like almost no global

Also empirically proven that you can use 4th global within subterfuge if 1 of them is vendetta

But still not worth doing for dps

Vendetta GCD is effected by haste yeah

So is detection lul

ah nice, i forgot about that

@vast forum so, only ar and vendetta have internal scale gcd? or there is more?

ar lowers the gcd in general

Ar lowers all other gcd to. 75 i think
