rigid mango
#

Idk tho, it's not really properly worth to spec ST as assa

modest mason
#

3x DD and 3x NP is bis for raid, right? Looking to swap from outlaw for Jaina

rigid mango
#

Just cleave/prio

strange python
#

Going for only boss damage is not worth it.

rigid mango
#

Well

#

Technically

#

3 dd 1 np 1 bbi 1 ttk

#

Is BiS

#

But it's because you get the trip OP

#

From first boss helm, goraks and ceph

modest mason
#

Thought NP was insanly good?

rigid mango
#

It is

modest mason
#

Oh i see

rigid mango
#

As a 1 of

#

It's still at the top

modest mason
#

Ok

rigid mango
#

But bbi will outsim it

#

Peobs

#

And there isn't a chest with dd np op

strange python
#

When OP and BBI procs at the same time..... beweak beweak beweak

rigid mango
#

So dd ttk op ceph is bis

#

When bbi and op procs during tb

modest mason
#

is NP mainly good for the energy regen?

civic palm
#

No.

#

Not until 8.2 probably.

#

Unless it's removed by then.

humble crane
#

@civic palm @vestal wren rekon there is a way for me to tell in logs what causes my stacks to drop?

#

because if I can figure that out, it would be a good indicator of what type of damage

#

I could just look at damage taken at the same time the stack drops I guess

strange python
#

How much crit is it btw? 220crit for a 425?

humble crane
#

Void crash removed it as I thought @vestal wren @civic palm

grizzled jay
#

Have they released the actual azerite traits for the new Eternal palace raid?

humble crane
#

actually no

rigid mango
#

@modest mason yeah, the damage is good but the energy reg matters a lot

#

But ofc doesn't stack

humble crane
#

It was terrifying echo damage from the add that spawns

#

idk how that works though

crisp shard
#

What kind of trait setup would you bee looking to run for first boss crucible mythic? 3x shrouded?

rigid mango
#

I thought it was just as simple as the things that get reduced by faint don't get rid of boot stacks

#

They don't count as targeted damage

humble crane
#

im just not sure how that visage from beyond works since it just sits there casting a fear XD

vestal wren
#

not every aoe spell is reduced by feint

rigid mango
#

Yeah, but the ones that are don't fuck with the boots

vestal wren
#

rogue defensives in general are super poor designed
(from a user perspective)

rigid mango
#

Idk

#

Just feels like spaghetti coding that should easily be fixed

vestal wren
#

iirc boots are good if you have ~5 stacks average

#

so if the majority does not remove stacks ๐Ÿ‘

humble crane
#

yeah they seem to be maintaining uptime on this fight really well

#

and there is lots of aoe damage on it

#

so unless you get a targetted damage they are great

rigid mango
#

Idk it sorta sucks though

#

These items are pretty useless

vestal wren
#

the legs are rly nice

#

and the mastery trinket

rigid mango
#

Since next tier will have ilvl increase

#

Yah maybe trink

vestal wren
#

so we have at least 2 good ones in the raid

rigid mango
#

But still, in the azshara raid

#

There'll surely be better stuff

vestal wren
#

well itemlvl jumps between tiers are high

rigid mango
#

Idd

vestal wren
#

this means your gear "now" will be replaced in heroic next raid

rigid mango
#

So these items will probs be obselete for m prog

vestal wren
#

thats nothing bad

rigid mango
#

I mean

vestal wren
#

thats how raid loot works

rigid mango
#

I think these items are fun

#

And interesting

#

They didn't actually get a proper tier

#

Where they could properly be usef

#

Not in BoD, sure m CoS but it's a mini tier

vestal wren
#

not all guilds are finished with bod progress

#

a ton of guilds is still progressing jaina

rigid mango
#

Yah

#

But maybe it's one boss

#

Boots are useless there

vestal wren
#

if the stacks dont reset on the dot

rigid mango
#

Trink is debatable for p3

#

Aye but they literally dont do anything post p1

#

Idk I just think it's a bit sad that these items didn't really get a proper use

strange python
#

yall recommend heed for m+?

#

looks like i can run 3x eb/2ss w/ 3x heed lol

rigid mango
#

Idk it's tyr week wouldn't run 3 eb

strange python
#

The legs are Good? :o

rigid mango
#

But that's just me

strange python
#

I Will prolly run 1xEB or max 2

#

yeah i'm running 1eb/3ttk for tyr

rigid mango
#

Agree

strange python
#

but only cuz thats what gear allows atm

rigid mango
#

Yah I'll be running 3 ttk 2 ss 1 eb

#

Probs

strange python
#

yup, exactly what im running

rigid mango
#

Maybe a bbi depends on dung

humble crane
#

how you guys going on first boss mythic? we are getting to around 60%, just having interupt issues

strange python
#

farm content; but we have enough ranged to get them all usually

dark crag
#

Bod mythic?

humble crane
#

CoS

strange python
#

oh

tropic ocean
#

u r already at 60%? wat

humble crane
#

Yes, we are working towards the second relic on both

dark crag
#

How far are method and limit?

strange python
#

limit 7%

humble crane
#

We are 13 pulls in and our best is 64%

strange python
#

thats pretty good

#

we were at 21 pulls for 46

humble crane
#

its literally interupts cucking us atm

strange python
#

yeah, interrupts get horrible

#

have yall tried having shorter cds go first?

humble crane
#

atm we are just lusting on pull and burning fathil to sort out the interupts

#

feel like a pumper doing 75k dps on the pull XD

#

yeah its meant to be our ele shamans first

#

our raid comps pretty scuffed compared to the 'meta'

#

we only have 3 spriests and 2 warlocks

#

but we are around 65% on both at ~3 minutes in atm with 5 healers

#

pew pew

#

can see where I ran out to get dark herald XD

exotic widget
#

when using MA do you ever use garrote or rupture out of vanish after the pull ( 2nd set of cds onwards ) ?

tropic ocean
#

no

#

except in opener

exotic widget
#

sorry that is with no ss

tropic ocean
#

i basically do 2 things either tb mutilate envenom

#

or "gamble" build 4-5cp tb vanish envenom mutilate envenom

exotic widget
#

why is it gamble cant you pool it

night vale
#

how is that a gamble?

tropic ocean
#

cuz the dmg is either very high or low

#

while tb inside ma window is more sustained or evened out however you wanna call it

exotic widget
#

true 2 cp guaranteed

tropic ocean
#

like good case 4 cp mutilate envenom all crit $$$

#

bad case 2/3 cp mutilate and rip

humble crane
exotic widget
#

treacherous is simming higher than np for me

tropic ocean
#

while with tb its safe dmg

exotic widget
#

anyone else has this?

#

2nd np*

tropic ocean
#

simming on patchwerk?

exotic widget
#

aye

tropic ocean
#

can it be related to the 3rd ring trait in that particular piece?

#

e.g. overwhelming power vs. another trait?

#

or is the same piece?

exotic widget
#

same piece 44 dps more to take teacherous than 2nd np

#

i even have 415 plume

tropic ocean
#

well the 2nd np isnt as strong as the first one so

#

with 44 dps difference I guess u can vary it depending on encounter

exotic widget
#

yeh like shit on mekkatorque

tropic ocean
#

if you have encounters where you preferably want/need dps at point x like stormwall/jaina or rasta

#

i'd take np nevertheless

exotic widget
tropic ocean
#

harlan+plume, until getting new trinket frmo cos

#

then harlan+new trinket

#

btw you should check stat weights for st

#

mastery could be better than crit for weapon enchant

merry zinc
#

for higher m+ keys (18+) would i want to have 2ss/2eb/2ttk? I'm currently at 2ss/3eb/1ttk

#

wondering if i should gamble for the head with ss/ttk. or should i try to get gorak tuls?

strange python
#

I don't like 3xEB at any point. This week I even would go 1xEB, Get the better prio damage for ragemobs and for an even cleave + Tyranical

tropic ocean
#

any combination of ss eb ttk is fine

#

im running 2 eb 1ss 2 ttk this week

merry zinc
#

yeah thats whwat i'm thinking, i think my setup is fine for trash heavy weeks, but i'm missing too much st on weeks like this

#

but would you try to get more ttk while keeping 2ss and grading one eb down to 2 or could blightborn be better?

#

would be 2eb/2ss/1ttk/1bbi then

tropic ocean
#

u still dont want to sacrifice too much aoe

#

since u spend most time fighting trash anyway

merry zinc
#

lets see what dungeon slice sim says

#

i'm just not sure if i want to downgrade my ss to one. on the other hand i wouldn't have to rage that much if ppl dont let me restealth^^

tropic ocean
#

dungeon slice is not the best sim

#

try to sim patchwerk 6 target 40sec fight duration

#

probably can sim even higher cuz this week u will pull way more trash anyway

merry zinc
#

oh okay, thats more accurate?

cobalt gyro
#

i'm running 2/2/2 this week

mint peak
#

There's no fast rule what's going to be better since it depends on your pulls, your comp, and so many factors nobody knows. Just play the good traits in whatever combo you prefer no one can say if dropping 1 EB for a TTK is objectively better for your keys

merry zinc
#

yeah i know that, i just wanted to have some input. thought my aoe heavy setup is fine, i just wondered if i should try to aim for 2/2/2 or 2ss/2eb/1ttk/1bbi in the future but i guess its not that big of a difference

#

at least not on sims

tropic ocean
#

I personally don't really like bbi for m+

dark crag
#

When in doubt go 222

tropic ocean
#

eb/ttk/ss is just on demand while bbi is oh it procs

#

pulllllll

merry zinc
#

mhh that makes sense

#

so could be very unfortunate if i run with pugs mostly^^

cobalt gyro
#

ss on cabal feels reaaaaal good

rigid mango
#

I think 3 ttk 2 ss 1 eb is gonna feel super nice this week

tribal marlin
#

Any idea of best azerites for M Cabale ?

#

I can run 3xSS 2xNP 1xDD

#

Maybe 3xSS 1xNP 1xEB 1xTTK and using FoK as builder

humble crane
#

40% best attempt for tonight ๐Ÿ˜ฆ better luck sunday

tribal marlin
#

Seems like 3xSS 2xEB 1xTC is strong for 2target

night vale
#

id take BBI over TC, personally, but then again i wouldnt run any EB (1 at a push) for 2 target

fallen bay
#

why is NP not taken to M+ ? i see Only SS, TTK and EB

night vale
#

cause it has no value outside of Single target and a low % of the dungeon run will be ST fights

fallen bay
#

so every NP i should switch for TTK ?

#

if i can ?

night vale
#

TTK certainly has more value for m+

Lots are a fan of the trait here aswell, i personally am running 3xSS and 3xEB in the majority of my runs.... with the exception of kings rest where i'd drop 1 EB for a TTK

fallen bay
#

and what about this ID ? should i run 3EB or switch them for TTK ?

night vale
#

ID?

fallen bay
#

this week i ment ๐Ÿ˜„

rigid mango
#

I think running 2/2/2 or 3 ttk 2ss/eb 1 ss/eb

#

Is your best bet

night vale
#

completely up to you, i think its personal preference, you cant go wrong with SS/EB/TTK in any amount

rigid mango
#

3 ss eb is just sorta

#

Worse outlaq

fallen bay
#

i have only one SS

rigid mango
#

Esp during tyr weeks

#

You really lack behind during long bosses thanks to not having 3 traits

#

Yeah, like snimo said

rigid mango
#

Aslong as your 6 traits are a balance of ttk/eb/ss

cobalt gyro
#

apparently heroic legs are decent

rigid mango
#

You'll be fine

#

Does mast sim that high for you?

cobalt gyro
#

I have lots of DD/NP traits

#

those scale with mastery

fallen bay
#

so 3TTK/2EB/1SS is fine ?

rigid mango
#

Yeah I mean I run 3 dd 2 np 1 bbi atm

#

Yeah, I'd say it's one of the best set ups

#

This week

cobalt gyro
#

that'll be fine

rigid mango
#

Idk i still don't sim mast highest

#

It's still a mix

night vale
#

3xDD 2xNP and 1xBBI for m+ ?

rigid mango
#

No?

#

I was having 2 convos at the same time

#

1 with shadow 1 with odowla

night vale
#

oh i see xD i was like ๐Ÿ˜ฎ new meta

rigid mango
#

I think taking a single dd is actually trolling for m+

#

If you're not doing something super niche

night vale
#

yeah id agree with that tbh

rigid mango
#

Np could be used as a filler during tyr weeks

#

But even that is a semi yikes

cobalt gyro
#

ideally i just wouldn't run NP unless i had nothing else

night vale
#

especially as if you're running any EB traits you're not gonna press mutilate outside of boss encounters

rigid mango
#

Exactly

#

Wouldn't run NP for what?

meager basalt
#

any 1 use lurkers gift trinky yet

rigid mango
#

It's nuts

night vale
#

yeah got myself a 415 with leech

#

its nice

rigid mango
#

I don't have it, but looking at others

#

It's probs best trinket atm

night vale
#

yeah increased my ST sim by around 700 dps over a 410 golden plumage

rigid mango
#

Nah it defo is

#

I can't wait to down jaina so I can actually get a chance at it

cobalt gyro
#

I meant NP for m+

night vale
#

just try for it on heroic, its only marginally better at 425 vs 415

rigid mango
#

Ah

#

Well yeah

#

But we're stuck on m jaina

#

And I've currently got food poisoning

#

So I can't even do that

night vale
#

damn, i mean my guild are on Jaina right now, although im missing raid tonight to watch the football xD

rigid mango
#

I went away for a week during easter and missed 3x raids, came back and missed 2 nights because of food poisoning and a 39.5 degree fever

#

๐Ÿคท

night vale
#

yikes, wait, thats the dream, miss all prog and come in for the kill

#

good thinking

rigid mango
#

Unlucky that my rl is mad because our ranged have no hands

#

I just wanna get it down

meager basalt
#

just pop lurk trinky on CD u reckon?

rigid mango
#

So I can try for the trink

meager basalt
#

in m+

night vale
#

i macro it to vendetta

#

seems to work weel

rigid mango
#

Hm

#

Idk for m+

meager basalt
#

reaping will want

#

and boss

#

rest gg

#

i guess

#

idk just got it gonna go deplete some keys wid it

#

brb

rigid mango
#

I think you just pop it on cd

#

Tbh

#

I think it's nutty with a group that can play around it

#

Pull bigger every 1.5 min

night vale
#

yeah but i pretty much pop vendetta on CD in m+ anyway :P

plus i run EB SS

so having vendeatta + lurkers mastery + SS on pull is insane

rigid mango
#

Idk I think eb w lurkers is pretty neat

#

Every bigger pack

night vale
#

yeah for sure, but i just really like Lurkers with vendetta and shrouded suffocation garotte on pull... the 900 mastery for the duration of my garotte and vendetta is insane.

Would feel bad to dsync them to me, but like i say, not a massive issue for me cause im pretty much using vendetta on CD anyway

rigid mango
#

Myeh that's fair

night vale
#

yeah its crazy, my mastery goes from like 30% > 60% xD

#

iirc

rigid mango
#

Yeah shit's nasty

night vale
#

Basically increases the reliance on fight times in m+

if i get a second vendetta + trinket on a boss then i do nutty dmg. Or if the fight is super quick on non-tyran weeks

#

if the fight is 2 mins long its a bit meh, as usual

full flame
#

I see most of these high sims running 3x NP and 3x DD. Do we not want at least one shrouded suffocation anymore? Even though it sims worse than DD Iโ€™ve seen guides including icyviens stating that its great to have. Is this just outdated info?

rigid mango
#

Ss is good, dd and np builds with MA can perform higher on more ST focused fight

#

Optimally you'd have 3 dd 1 np 1 bbi 1 ttk 3 op

tropic ocean
#

@rigid mango are you not farming cos heroic before going to jaina?

#

to spread trinkets etc ?

rigid mango
#

Not sure tbh

tropic ocean
#

like we go cos first and then jaina to get carried by new gear

#

:->

rigid mango
#

Like I said, been out of the game for over a week

#

I don't think they're doing it, but idk

#

We got realm 1st hc CoS but believe that was our 2nd team

#

Nvm

#

It was the main team I just wasn't there rEEEEEE

#

Idk is the damage you take from the trink worht while using in p3 jaina?

marble hemlock
#

definitely not gonna play any DD tho

#

@spice surge

spice surge
#

Ye

marble hemlock
#

think fokbuilder with ~30ish crit

#

should give better results

#

can also just mut/fok for 4+ instead of fok/fok

#

chest options suck tho

#

only got mekka with scent+tc ><

spice surge
#

Havent even gotten a respons from sebeks guild yet so idk if im even going to play

marble hemlock
#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

#

meh, might just play eb+ttk from cepha

spice surge
#

Yeah thats probably the play

marble hemlock
#

helmet - opu crown with scent+ss
shoulders - rasta scent or eb+ttk, also has RP
chest - cepha with eb+ttk?

#

probably the best setup i have

rigid mango
#

Scent good for first boss?

spice surge
#

Is SS even good? Idk if it lines up with debuff

#

Yes, scent is good when there is 3 targets constantly

rigid mango
#

Ah ok fair enough

marble hemlock
#

dont have a better helm unfortunately

rigid mango
#

Have no clue what's going on in new raid

marble hemlock
#

only other options would be fluid machinations which has eb/ss too, or champions which would be ss+tc/np

spice surge
#

TL:DR of the new raid

#

Undertuned on heroic
Seemingly overtuned on mythic

#

Idk seli im considering the dark side

#

And going wits

rigid mango
#

How neatly stacked are they?

#

Is it constant bf value?

#

Worth going wits n dancing steel?

candid canopy
#

boys iโ€™m pretty new to the game.. havenโ€™t played since vanilla.. started playing a couple days ago i had that 110 boost almost 120 now..

#

if i only play arena will i still get geared out?

#

not really trying to play pve

viscid token
#

this might be a really dumb question, but why am i getting combo points from auto attacks now?

marble hemlock
#

ye, if you play lots of it

#

you can get higher ilvl gear than most raiders even, if youre constantly sitting at 2.4k+

candid canopy
#

word so once i hit 120 i donโ€™t really have to pve dope ty

#

and one other thing.. how do i get this horde trinket everyone is talking about

marble hemlock
#

well, it helps to get ilvl up early, doing arenas with low-ilvl is gonna suck

rigid mango
#

Horde trinket?

candid canopy
#

yeah the one that removes all debugged

#

debuffs

#

or alliance trinket either way

marble hemlock
#

think that question is better suited for #pvp

rigid mango
#

Aye we're just pve plebs here

candid canopy
#

oh just wasnโ€™t sure if anyone knew

viscid token
#

is anyone else getting combo points from just auto attacking? i can't for the life of me find out why it's happening lol.

drifting cloud
#

Pvp trinket doesnt exist anymore its just a talent

marble hemlock
#

warmode honor among thieves? @viscid token

viscid token
#

omg thank you seliathan lol!

wide hedge
#

!zandalari

#

was hoping a bot has an answer for racials ๐Ÿ˜›

spice surge
#

!sims

prisma monolithBOT
spice surge
#

There you go

marble hemlock
#

@spice surge think 11% haste is enough?

#

not sure if i really want that much haste to begin with since i can just 3r+2g for sustain

spice surge
#

Should be enough if you have 4 bleeds up

#

Is it worth to dot the add when its not active?

#

Prob not yeah?

#

Since you can have 2 garrotes and 2 ruptures up, which should be enough

marble hemlock
#

well, with 7-10% haste its not enough to sustain fully

#

with 2g2r

#

with 3r2g its worth, and since im planning on double scent ill definitely rupture that one too

#

do i play gigagreed with lurker and just cloak the last 5sec? ๐Ÿ˜„

#

but gotta keep cloak for soaking orbs :<

rigid mango
#

How much does the trink hit you for during the last 5-10 sec per tic?

marble hemlock
#

9-11k

rigid mango
#

Aight so barely anything

marble hemlock
#

regularly, yeah

#

people are mostly concerned about its viability on mythic cabal tho, where you spend most of the time with 90% reduced max hp, so around ~25k hp

rigid mango
#

Yeah I mean in that situation

#

Bad, but it's still usable on like p3 jaina right?

marble hemlock
#

ye sure

rigid mango
#

Like how high do you rate bbi @marble hemlock is it worth dropping a ttk for it?

marble hemlock
#

yes

#

i rate it very highly

#

probably the highest out of all traits

rigid mango
#

Hm

#

So why are you going for swirl head?

#

Instead of goraks

strange python
#

@marble hemlock what traits are you gonna run for 1st boss assa wise

marble hemlock
#

starting with 2scent 2ttk 1ss 1eb

#

high crit+mastery

strange python
#

only one shrouded? hm

wispy iron
#

so for m+ what is the best setup of traits 2xEB,2xTTK,1xNP,1xSS ?

rigid mango
#

Not np

wispy iron
#

not even for tyranical weeks ?

rigid mango
#

Any balance of ttk eb ss

#

And a bbi

#

Yeah

#

You'd rather just go ttk/bbi

#

If you need the ST, np gives barely anything during trash rtc

#

Etc*

wispy iron
#

all right thanks, so I can do 2xeb,2xttk, 1bbi and 1 ss

marble hemlock
#

ye

wispy iron
#

or 3xeb 1xttk, 2ss ... but

marble hemlock
#

thats pretty solid for all situations

#

1ttk isnt really worth the effort to play around, so you want as many as you can (which is 2 if youre running goraks)

rigid mango
#

Guess I'll run 2 ttk 2ss 1 eb 1 bbi

#

Hm

wispy iron
#

thanks, i have few of possible combinations, so I was not sure ... I stoped playing m+ like 2 months ago, and now I need to fill in group which is doing around +20 so I need some practice ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

tribal marlin
#

Sim for 2target tell me to run 3ss 2eb 1tc :3

#

I could swap 1tc for 1ttk but i'm not sure it's worth it

mint peak
#

It probably is tbh

tribal marlin
#

well sim says no

#

but sims are sims

#

maybe it is in a real situation

#

I need to make a choice before tonight :3

strange python
#

throw a dice

tribal marlin
#

yes it's a good idea

#

I'm not even sure EB is a good option for this specific encounter

#

but sims place EB so high

strange python
#

is it first boss mythic you thinking?

tribal marlin
#

yes

strange python
#

id remove TC then

#

just cuz the lethal part of it

tribal marlin
#

I'm not sure this encounter let you drop below 15% health anyway

mint peak
#

Oh for some reason I thought you meant M_

strange python
#

Saw some limit tries last night, and they dropped alot all the time it looked like

tribal marlin
#

yes because of the crown thingy

#

but it OS you below 25% anyway

#

all other sources of damage are avoidable and might OS you anyway

strange python
#

yea maybe

#

Id still remove it, cause the difference cant be big for ya?

#

And risk vs reward.

tribal marlin
#

It's quite noticeable on the sims

#

thing is that for this specific encounter there is no way I drop below 15% health and not die anyway

#

I dunno I think I need to first do a few pulls on the boss to have a better picture of the thing

shy axle
#

all combinations are good to go - du you want more aoe/st/focus dmg. Thats it

left abyss
#

does SS become better than NP/DD with the lurkers gift trinket?

robust cloak
#

do you guys use the m+ slice sim for m+ or something else?

modest torrent
#

how good are crucible pants?

wanton swan
#

I personally haven't seen that great of results from them. Often about 2% of fight damage on mainly ST fights. Highest I've seen is around 3.5%.

#

I'd like to hear of others' experiences. Just doesn't seem as good as the sim to me.

golden relic
hasty brook
#

IS that worth for sin spec? I got it but I figured better for outlaw

hasty brook
#

I saw it sim'd higher for me just figured it risky to put on because my auto attacks would not be as fast as outlaw.

visual quartz
#

NP only sims higher for me on around 2min sims, TC usualy takes over at 5min sims, weird

#

GGthough, 29k club

lucid elm
#

Not sure if its asked already, but how are the new legs from CoS?

#

is it worth going down a few ilvls?

Alright, good to know ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

eager pond
#

I have a question about stats and sims:
Ye, stat priority is Haste>Crit>Mastery>Vers but simming I found is better enchant my weapons with haste-mastery
And guides tells is better enchant crit-haste or haste-crit

Any reason of that?

#

last pic order is: Crit, Haste, Vers, Mastery, Leech, Avoidance

nimble tartan
#

The guides are general and the sims are tailored specifically for your character. Either way the difference from haste/mastery and haste/crit is like 3 dps so use whatever u want. Itโ€™s the same situation for myself but I like rnging my way to thicc crits so I choose to go for the deadly enchant

eager pond
#

So... all depends if I like more consistent dmg or rng crits

nimble tartan
#

Theyโ€™re both consistent as seen by sims itโ€™s close

#

I just like seeing crits

dull compass
#

heyho, just got the hc idol trinket from unaat. Is it this bad that its not even listed on bloodmallet or is there another reason, or how good is it ?

#

for a stat stick

ionic dome
#

Stupid question, but is there a WA handy that I can just slap in the middle of my screen to remind me when i'm not in Stealth lol

vast forum
#

any1 know how good the CoS boots are for mekka?

#

how many things clear the stacks?

nimble tartan
#

Just the dot u get when u have bomb

#

And if someone zaps you

#

I had good uptime on it last week

#

Basically only dropped when I got bomb

visual quartz
#

so the aoe bot dmg doesnt drop it? the tooltip says any dmg

spice surge
#

The tooltip is garbage

#

It should say "some damage" instead of no damage, and it would be a lot mroe accurate. Even though that isnt a good tooltip ๐Ÿ˜„

nimble tartan
#

The bot aoe doesnโ€™t drop it no

#

I had 99% uptime on conclave as well I think itโ€™s just non character specific stuff that wonโ€™t drop it but sometimes Iโ€™m like why did my stacks just drop

spice surge
#

Its like feint

#

You dont know if it works until you tried ๐Ÿ‘Œ

#

Any top sin rogue logs I can see for the COS? Seems like not much is loading for me manually on warcraftlogs or the very top ones keep hiding their logs

royal lantern
#

the NP not working bug is the most annoying thing in this game.....

hasty brook
#

NP not working?

civic palm
#

From time to time traits will not work, it's not just NP.

spice surge
#

Re-equip them and it should work

#

If it doesnt, relogg, and if that doesnt then reforge

hasty brook
#

I had no idea. Is it noticeable when it is not working? Also sorta a big bug

spice surge
#

Not really, when it doesnt do damage anymore or the buff/debuff stops showing up

#

Mostly happens if you dc

slender urchin
#

Quick question: based on my current azerite pieces, which would you gamble for? I'll be able to buy another 415 piece next week. I appreciate the input

#

I'm thinking...shoulders?

#

Hope for Gorak Tul's

hollow jungle
#

you're kinda at a crossroads, where if you get DD on your helm you can swap to MA build...

slender urchin
#

Cowl actually does have a DD on it, but I lose my only copy of SS

hollow jungle
#

jsut swap SS for DD on ur helm

#

and change builds

#

yeah, i forgot lmao

#

save your residium for 8.2

slender urchin
#

We are progging on Mekka and beyond so I suppose DD is straight away best anyhow..

#

I just love me SS/sub

hollow jungle
#

yeah, swap to MA

#

especially for last 3 bosses

#

you can't even multi garrote last 3 bosses anyway

#

SS loses lots of value

#

save your residium for 8.2, or if you want to go SS for CoS, then snag SS shoulders.

lone junco
#

@ionic dome I used to have a big stealth icon for when I was stealth. WA can do it easily.

civic palm
#

also having Master Assassin as an icon is a bit of a give-away if you are in stealth or not as well.

If that's all of your weak aura, i like

Guys, when do I vanish in pve? for example when there's 2 targets when do I vanish? and if there's 3+ targets?

hollow jungle
#

SS or MA build?

rancid elbow
#

what is MA? but I have atleast one shrouded suffo

tranquil silo
#

Master assass

#

In

rancid elbow
#

wel SS it is then

tropic ocean
#

Vanish to put garrotes out preferably on 3 targets

#

If theres only 2 let it run out then garrote 2x on prio target and 1x on other

spring iron
#

ugh.... elab pracs so infrequently if I do combos at 4-5 points....

#

procs*

#

I feel like I'm missing out.....

#

it's like I'm only able to hit those progs MAYBE during vendetta.

#

no food, no pots/flasks, no lust.

#

I'm continually tempted by Master poisoner....

#

someone talk me off a ledge....

cobalt pelican
#

why would you want to just.. do less damage

spring iron
#

Elab planning is very spikey.... I mean, how much uptime are you all getting I guess is my big questions.

cobalt pelican
#

like, 70%?

#

65-75 somewhere in that ballpark at least

spring iron
#

70% uptime on Elab????????

#

wtf am I doing wrong?

cobalt pelican
#

i don't know, are you super undergeared?

spring iron
#

403

cobalt pelican
#

haste and crit will effect uptime but not significantly enough for you to worry about

spring iron
#

Xaviรชra-Illidan

#

11% haste 24% crit

tranquil silo
#

Post a log

spring iron
#

you see....

#

I'm not one of them.... logging rogues....

tranquil silo
#

Then no ones gonna be able to help

cobalt pelican
#

just.. sim your character with no buffs and check the full report and it'll give you a figure on elaborate uptime and you can check the apl against what you're doing on a dummy

#

and you can compare, cause you're doing something wrong somewhere

spring iron
#

it keeps telling me the armory API is down.

cobalt pelican
#

probably because your name has 800 alt codes

#

just use the simc addon to give you a string

spring iron
#

it has 1 lol

cobalt pelican
#

so it does

golden relic
#

Prob not pooling energy properly

spring iron
#

when should I pool energy?

golden relic
#

Thats the reason most of the time for new ppl

spring iron
#

maybe it's time to finally tackle that piece

golden relic
#

Pool before TB so u can get 2-3 envenoms off in it

tropic ocean
#

You overcap co

#

Cp

#

You overwrite subterfuge garrote

#

You have low uptime on dots

#

Dont use poison knife

#

U overcap cp with mutilate/tb/garrote

spring iron
#

cp=combo ponts?

tropic ocean
#

ye

spring iron
#

so I SHOULD do that?

#

or no?

#

I try not to....

tropic ocean
#

U should not

#

And use finishers more frequently

cobalt pelican
#

i doubt your elaboratep lanning uptime is that low anyway even if you're playing poorly

#

not anywhere near enough to be considering master poisoner anyway

spring iron
#

feels like I only get Elab during opener/Vendetta

cobalt pelican
#

..what?

#

it's up every time you cast rupture or envenom

spring iron
#

like... I get the initial, but having 2 finishers in 4 secs seems hard atm.

tranquil silo
#

Itโ€™s literally every finisher

cobalt pelican
#

i feel like you don't know what it does or something

spring iron
#

hmm...

golden relic
#

Are u mixing up elab with ma

tropic ocean
#

Just by refreshing rupture and using 4cp envenom whenever you can youll have half decent uptime

spring iron
#

no.

#

I guess it's fine then

#

cuz yes, it's always up

#

I thougt it only buffed finishers.

cobalt pelican
#

it's just 10% flat dmg after you cast a finisher

tranquil silo
#

Youโ€™re not gonna always fit an envenom in it

cobalt pelican
#

for 4 seconds

spring iron
#

yea

#

ok then, I guess nbd

tropic ocean
#

In your champion kill u have 63% eb uptime

#

Thats not too bad

spring iron
#

I can continue to work on better uptimes and pooling energy

tropic ocean
#

Try to have more than 85% rupture uptime

#

And use tb on cd you wasted 3 possible tb casts

cobalt pelican
#

if you don't crit mut you're going to end up envenoming outside the elaborate window pretty frequently

hasty brook
#

Is there a pin somewhere about best taits for M+ dps affixs this week?

small aurora
#

anyone here that does high m+ that could shoot me a snip of your stat weights?

bleak spoke
#

you play as much crit as you can

#

basically

small aurora
#

yeah i've seen people aiming for like 1.6k crit and above

bleak spoke
#

crit > mastery if you want to be useful like crit > vers if you want to pad with EB

#

like in that picture above that's hard crit vers

small aurora
#

im looking to nuke high prio targets

bleak spoke
#

play 3tk

small aurora
#

im crit/vers atk

#

ttk?

bleak spoke
#

like 3 ttk 2 eb 1 ss or 3 ttk 2 ss 1 eb if you have aoe classes with you

#

yeh twist the knife

#

you want ceph jacket or conclave chest, rasta shoulders, opulence helm

small aurora
#

do you run the master poison with TTK stack?

bleak spoke
#

no

#

still EP

#

the point of the build is to fit as many envenoms into your tb windows on prio targets

small aurora
#

aiming for 4?

bleak spoke
#

so ideally you want to set up 4 bleeds (3g 1r on open) and then you want to fok to like 3-5 tb the prio

#

and sink envs yeh

#

4 is the max you can do

small aurora
#

yeah, now does that translate to boss dmg aswell? or is DD better for prolonged fights?

bleak spoke
#

obviously dd's better for prolonged ST but it's giga shit on aoe

#

ttk if you play prio is at least some gain

#

you'll never play DD in a dungeon unless you were trying to idk, bwon-buff for a nice key the next week on a super high key idk

small aurora
#

ah okay

bleak spoke
#

in which case you'd probably leave to retalent/regear for stuff, and only really kings is like that

small aurora
#

yeah im only running Sin for KR atm

#

so I just want to melt the elites in gauntlet and the bosses

bleak spoke
#

i play sin in KR temple and shrine

small aurora
#

yeah I was thinking for srhine aswell but I haven't been in there this week

bleak spoke
#

vanish ggg with iron wire lets you pull really big to start

small aurora
#

yeah the caster killer spec

bleak spoke
#

like the cast timer on water blast is really yikes

#

its like 4 water blasts to a wash away or something

#

i think wash away might be a 24s cast

small aurora
#

yeah and they chunk

bleak spoke
#

yeh 3 water blasts on a 20 tyr will nut on your tank

small aurora
#

yeah, we tried to do a 15 fort with 4 casters

#

didn't go as well as planned

bleak spoke
#

sin makes that shit really easy though

#

like on a 15 they'll die before they can cast again

small aurora
#

I played sin at the start then went outlat for full unga bunga

bleak spoke
#

if you open 3 gs -> kicks -> vanish 3 gs they go to wash away

#

and then you get kicks for next set of water blasts

#

so you don't get casts for like 25-30s

small aurora
#

yeah and they just melt

#

yeah ill keep that in mind

bleak spoke
#

and then after that ti's all types of stuff you can do, aoe stuns, typhoons, aoe fears etc etc

#

anything to get them to stop basically

#

i usually hold blind for scary mending rapids situations though

#

cuz it's your last line of defense and disorient is never dr'd kinda

#

unlike kidney

small aurora
#

yeah I do the same

#

I have been spolied by outlaw though

#

gouge? is insane for your interupt rot

bleak spoke
#

yeh but shrine's actually the one dungeon where 3 silences is more impactful

small aurora
#

yeah that and big ML pulls

bleak spoke
#

other place you can argue is ML but i'll only play sin if there's an outlaw i trust in there

#

yeh

small aurora
#

yeah need someone to go apeshit while you do all the contorl

#

control*

bleak spoke
#

cuz when you play outlaw in ML you can solo 2 assassins with gouge/blind for hail of fletchettes

small aurora
#

yup

bleak spoke
#

personally a huge fan of engi belt too cuz another non-dr cc

small aurora
#

I have it, I use it when i can remember to

bleak spoke
#

yeh that's the hard part, it's a long ass cd and you forget you have it kinda

small aurora
#

yeah

#

hey, thanks for all that. Ill work on the TTK set

prisma carbon
#

Should i play sin or outlaw for blockade progress? Gear is about the same for both and I'm comfortable with either so i would like to play w/e is optimal for progress.

spice surge
#

Both are good. Honestly just play what you prefer

nimble tartan
#

Play sin brother

prisma carbon
#

i just got a 425 lurkers so i probably will ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

tribal marlin
#

that super nice trinket that you can't use on M cabal... We love Blizzard

humble crane
#

I use it on mythic prog, I just pulled the healing officer aside and explained how it worked. They just make sure they keep the 3 melee using it topped

late plinth
#

What traits do people run i m+ this week?

nimble tartan
#

imagine a trinket u get from 2nd boss heroic that hard ints first boss mythic

#

why did they do this

rigid mango
#

@late plinth I'm gonna be running 2ttk 2 ss 1 bbi 1 eb

#

I'd recommend a high 3 ttk 2 ss 1 eb

#

Or 2/2/2 always works

#

(if you don't have goraks that is)

late plinth
#

just started playing again last reset after quiting back in winter so i don't have that many choices with AP.

rigid mango
#

If you go to top gear on raidbots and send all your az pieces

#

I could try to give you a decent set up

late plinth
#

ya sec,

#

also wich tier 2 talent you prefer after OP?

#

/simc

rigid mango
#

Op / heed

#

Flames can be aight

late plinth
#

also harlan/deadeye/Gbc, sadly dont have a pplumage yet

#

their all 400 ilvl

rigid mango
#

I'd run harlan deadeye, but that's just because I cba using gcb

#

And also haste is quite bad for m+

#

So

late plinth
#

my team lack boss dmg so I'm carrying that part atleast

rigid mango
#

Hm

#

Then ttk's would be great^^

hollow jungle
#

Question for the CE ass rogues. Do yall rupture the elemental for extra energy in phase 3 on Jaina or avoid as to not over dmg and kill said elemental?

rigid mango
#

It's not worth to

#

You don't get value from dotting the elly

late plinth
#

there it is, since i just started again i only have 1 off each 400 piece sofar

hollow jungle
#

Roger that. Follow up question. Is there a macro to be used that prioritizes your kick to the elemental. Outside of a standard kick focus macro?

late plinth
#

im pretty sure i use right traits tho

rigid mango
#

I just meant screenshotting all your az pieces

#

Not the sim

late plinth
#

OH

#

LOL

rigid mango
#

I mean that works, just so I could see all of them :D

#

You can use a mousover macro if you want that @hollow jungle

hollow jungle
#

Yeah, was hoping for just a macro I could bind to my kick binding with a shift modifier that didnt involve me setting the ele as my focus target everytime we get to wall :(

late plinth
#

that's what i have to work with atm, my mates are nagging about my dmg on trash since if PB dosen't proc i do 0

hollow jungle
#

I dont want to use mouse over kick for the first time on jaina prog lol scary

late plinth
#

even tho i just played for 1 reset.

rigid mango
#

Aye I mean it's hard

#

Your pieces aren't THAT bad

#

I'd use tc>np

#

Since tc's still quite good for m+

#

St, cleave and aoe

#

You tried simming w exsang?

#

You have triple ss and a gcb, it could sim higher

late plinth
#

nope i haven't since i just got back i went with the easymode wtalent xd

rigid mango
#

Myeh fair

#

It could be better, it sorta sucks being that far behind though

#

You missed out on so many weeks of residuum that you sorta need to rng every good piece

late plinth
#

ya, im really just trying to get back in, meanwhile my mates are 8mythic 418 ilvl

#

that's my plan gonna rng shoulders and chest and pray i get something good just to get 415

#

head will eventually come from 1st boss atleast

rigid mango
#

I mean are you gonna be raiding at all?

#

Mythic that is

late plinth
#

pugging with my mates and their alts but i doubt i will kill anything but first boss for now, really cba with mythic raiding anymore

rigid mango
#

Fair enough

#

Cuz easy way out would be getting the 3 good pieces from the raie

late plinth
#

yupp, PL is so sad tho. kkinda why i Don't enjoy raiding anymore also

rigid mango
#

Yah but I'd guess most bosses are farm now

#

So pl doesn't matter ๐Ÿคท

royal lantern
#

if you have good mates they will probably bring you along for the first 2-3 mythic bosses anyway(except if they need too gear alts n stuff)

I wont be part of 27k club until Jaina's dumb ass dies so I can finally get 415 daggers on a damn reclear....feels awful man jdotbPeePeehands

just gear up a druid alt, reach 410 and enjoy your 29k sim dps

tropic ocean
#

Dw 27k club is outdated

nimble tartan
#

i cant believe this game wants me to wear the bootsies with the trinkie

tropic ocean
#

gz

nimble tartan
#

ima check the apl see if somethin weird happenin or its still decent to pair together with decent uptime

#

ye its not working how it is in game

#

in apl it has u keeping 10 stacks of untouchable throughout your trinket buff where it falls off on live

rigid mango
#

missed both week's chances at lurkers because i was gone 1 and sick 1 so not getting that any time soon PepeHands

nimble tartan
#

u can pug it

rigid mango
#

Myeh that's true

#

Actually entirely forgot about it tbh

nimble tartan
#

wait im so confused earlier i was testing boots with trinket and it was dropping my stacks

#

but now its not

harsh sphinx
#

with lurkers are your openers just big nuts?

bleak spoke
#

wait does it drop it or not

nimble tartan
#

it doesnt when i attack dummies so u can use them 2gether

#

earlier iw as testin on the lil rappies outside dazaralor but i htink they bled me probably why i dropped stacks

#

me smart

bleak spoke
#

o

nimble tartan
#

trinket seems really bad for mythic cabal though

#

boots ill test it out tomorrow

bleak spoke
#

isn't cabal mad random damage

nimble tartan
#

if it only drops if i get debuff and for crashing explosion it could be dece

#

depends on what drops it tbh

#

cause i had like 100% uptime on conclave

bleak spoke
#

eleem was saying that if you can't feint it it'll drop or something

nimble tartan
#

and on meka it never dropped other than me gettin bomb

#

ill go pug a heroic and see

bleak spoke
#

if they don't drop often the stat budget on those be like 4 sockets or some shit

#

like nearly 150 more secondary stat right

#

than a pair of equal ilevel boots

nimble tartan
#

comparing it to my 410 boots with a socket its a 81 more stats

#

so 2 sockets

#

if i keep it at full stackies

rigid mango
#

Checking your sims it's 3 sockets no?

#

I mean taking away the socket your boots already ahve

#

about 120 more stats if neither are socketed

honest grail
nimble tartan
#

ye if its same ilevel no socket its worth abotu 3 sockets

rigid mango
#

That's nuts

#

Does it scale better or worse with ilvl

#

than regular stats?

#

better, worse or equal

nimble tartan
#

please respek azerite josh

#

wait is this bugged or did you really do all thesed pulls with ace and wits bro

rigid mango
#

Think he did some as outlaw some as sin?

harsh sphinx
#

oof

honest grail
#

No, i was playing sin all night ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

rigid mango
#

hm then it's bugged

honest grail
#

nope

#

not bugged

nimble tartan
#

did lurkers feel uncomfy on that fight or can i play it brother

honest grail
#

@solar rose any thoughts?

rigid mango
#

omr

#

how do they scalce

#

w ilvl

#

if you know

#

the boots

nimble tartan
#

the boots?

rigid mango
#

ye

#

do they scale better/worse/equal

honest grail
#

scale linearly

rigid mango
#

to a regular pair of boots

nimble tartan
#

well the proc stays at 22 stacks still at 425 ilvl u just get like 47 more agi and 7 more vers

#

the boots have vers on them so its like a lil shitty but if i had some thiccie 415-420 boots with hot stats like big haste/mas or crit and a sockie id prob just wear that

rigid mango
#

Myeh fair

nimble tartan
#

every other crucible gear gets increased numbers except for the boots from the loot journal

rose perch
#

@honest grail wth are u doing in here?

nimble tartan
#

giving us content baby

nimble tartan
#

with lurkers np value is so hot its basically sims the same on the gorak tul shoulders. Blightborne vs 2nd NP is the same dps

rigid mango
#

unlucky that the trink'll probably not be used past hc prog on azshara

golden relic
#

wat do u mean

#

titanforge into 440 feelsyarrman

rigid mango
#

new ttf cap'll be 455 right?

#

If it goes same in the same linear way anyways

does 29k club exist guys?

lapis osprey
#

Hey guys, I need some help

cobalt gyro
#

sup

lapis osprey
#

Hey Odo what's good

#

I'm trialing for a guild tonight, on mekka MM

#

So far my dps has been shit

cobalt gyro
#

What traits/talents + do you have a log?

lapis osprey
#

I'm sitting at 408 ilvl and despite getting a nice opener, my dps gets cut down to half during the fight and I can't get it back up

#

I have logs from HC CoS will that be enough?

cobalt gyro
#

Well i meant a lot of the fight, but that's ok

#

What do you mean by half

rigid mango
#

Aye do you have any BoD logs etc

cobalt gyro
#

Mekke isnt a very melee friendly fight by any means

#

I had to play pretty risky to keep my damage up

lapis osprey
#

I don't have any Mekka logs, never done it

cobalt gyro
#

No one in the guild logging the pulls?

lapis osprey
#

I have some from the 3 first bosses but I changed a lot of things since then

cobalt gyro
#

Either way, talents look about standard, I'd recommend elusiveness for mekka M over cheat

rigid mango
#

idk it sorta sucks only running 1 ss imo

lapis osprey
#

I don't have any other azerite pieces :/

rigid mango
#

esp on mekka where you wont get any good multi garrotes

cobalt gyro
#

I experimented with SS in mekka as well, but ended up sticking with DD traits

rigid mango
#

aye

cobalt gyro
#

You'll have to get a feel for the fights' pattern and make sure you refresh dots before running off with a mechanic, etc

rigid mango
#

idk I'm really liking MA now so, It just sorta feels a little bad taking sub because of 1 SS

lapis osprey
#

MA?

#

Oh I made a mistake actually, instead of covenant I'm running Nothing personnal

rigid mango
#

oh yeah not having 1 NP trait atleast will chunk you ๐Ÿ˜„

#

and MA is master assassin

lapis osprey
#

THe talent? Is it any good?

#

I mean, given I only have one SS, would it be worth for me to change?

rigid mango
#

It is if you don't run any SS

#

but SS -> sub

#

nah

lapis osprey
#

My only alternative to SS is tradewinds

rigid mango
#

Highly doubt it's worth it

#

idk man

#

Traits do matter a lot I'm afraid

#

not that your trait's are that bad

#

You've only got one that's bad

lapis osprey
#

Scent?

#

With my 3 pieces I could go 3x shrouded, 1 nothing personnal, 1 Double dose & 1 scent

#

Or alternatively 2 shrouded & 2 double doses

spice surge
reef copper
#

how much uptime can you suspect for the boots dropped by uu'nat during let's say mythic grong?

spice surge
#

Every fight has wildly different uptime on the boots because a lot of damage doesnt actually break them

#

On grong only the slam and the dot from tantrum seems to break the boots, so as long as you cloak tantrum as often as possible you should have good uptime on the boots

reef copper
#

so they're worth more than 5 ilvls in a lot of fights?

rigid mango
#

On fights taht don't drop the stacks, yes

#

for equal ilvl piece

#

they have ~ 3 sockets more of stats

#

so if you have a decent uptime on them, they'll for sure be worth while

reef copper
#

good to know, thank you

strange python
#

Is there anywhere in logs I can find out the avg crit the boots gave during one of my fights?

tall pelican
#

Im abit confused about Azerite talents
Do i stack Shroud Suff? or is that been to hard nurfed?

#

pve and pvp

rose perch

@strange python do you have a log link? i can't think of a way but i can poke around to see

#

@tall pelican idk about pvp, in pve shrouded is insane on 2+ targets, and it's fine but not bis on 1

spice surge
#

This is what wowanalyzer is supposed to do for us but its not supported ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

that's how many you want for 2+ target boss fights and M+

#

ok great im on teh right path

#

i'll keep the 3x SS

strange python
#

Was really hoping for it to show like BBI on wowanalyzer but alas ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

stuck knoll
#

Look at the buff untouchable

#

And pin it

#

You can see the level of stacks you had at each point

meager basalt
#

how much haste yall usin for assass m+ recently

strange python
#

I use none

#

Well. Haste from Neck and my 1x Opulence dagger

meager basalt
#

link ur armory

#

dont believe

strange python
#

I mean I cannot since I have raid gear on but once I get home sure I can swap and screenshot

meager basalt
#

wtf so u use like 6%

strange python
#

Ye. And based on day or night I guess it is 6 or 7 since I am Nelf. Started to gear up my bloodelf but not that good gear yet

#

Prolly better to have more Haste tho. But ye... That is what I have

spice surge
#

The reason we want haste is for increased energy regen (passively+venomous). But when there is multiple targets and you can have 4 bleeds up you get enough energy to fill every global

#

So haste isnt as valuable in m+

meager basalt
#

ojh ik ik

#

but its tyran

#

Vast majority of the dungeon is still non-bosses

ima ninja pull adds on bosses to cleave

#

ezpz

strange python
#

There is prolly some difference but I cannot feel 6% or 10%. Sure once you get up to 15% and above you feel the haste but under that I personally don't feel any difference. And I rather have the big (and many) crits

meager basalt
#

running thru raptors in AD

#

ezpz

#

whatt crit % u at

strange python
#

40%

meager basalt
#

jesus

#

#

strange python
#

Shrine and Temple rings 415 with sockets

#

Nah without

#

Then I have Dice and Spyglass as trinkets

meager basalt
#

#

#

strange python
#

"Farm" I killed normal and HC last week and this week. Rip

meager basalt
#

tht was a joke btw, dont wanna trigger pll

#

u get boots? i wanna try em

#

pants blow on aoe

#

but they did good ddam on ST for me

strange python
#

Btw what items is good for us in the new raid. Trinkets it is easy to see the Sims and how well that Lurker perform. What is the average sim for the rest of the items. I would assume feet are good since it is not all damage? What els?

ashen breach
#

For echo blades to trigger again after the 5 hits do we need to leave combat before we Can do it again?

tropic ocean
#

no

spice surge
#

Its per cast, so no

ashen breach
#

Okay so its 5 crit for 5 targets?

#

Who gets the extra spray pe cast?

tropic ocean
#

it will pop another mini fok on target location

#

with 8yrd range

#

beware my superior paint skills

ashen breach
#

Ah thank you for the clarification i missread the tooltip ๐Ÿ˜„

#

Or misinterpreted

wanton swan
#

I haven't had great results with the legs @ 405 ilvl imo. Seeing 1.8% to 2.25% average damage from them, with a range of .7% to 3.6% of damage done. Doesn't seem worth it to lose 160 crit, 40 haste, and 20 int (which is worth about 2.6% of my dps) on my 410 socketed pants, even on ST.

strange python
#

So 405 vs 410 socket and they are just a little bit worse but with higher variance?

wanton swan
#

Yeah, I'd say about .5% worse with higher variance, even though sims say it should be about 1% increase.

crystal vessel
#

For closest raid comparison in BFD, what do you guys use for raidbots? Some movement?

wispy iron
#

I was just checking the Perfocto armory from method, and it seems he is playing 2xss, and 1dd with subterfuge talents, I was just wondering how he is pulling those huge numbers on opener ... not sure though

tropic ocean
#

@wispy iron on what fight? for 1st cos bos, its because of the high multitarget i suppose

wispy iron
#

hard to say, as armory is from last logout, they are on 2nd boss

#

to bad he is not streaming ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

tropic ocean
#

on 2nd boss he will probably use more st setup

#

as there is not much cleave involved

wispy iron
#

well the problem with SS is it just sim bad .. but in reality its not bad at all

tropic ocean
#

if u sim patchwork its bad y but for 1st cos fight its more likely to sim 2-3 target

#

since u have constant cleave

wispy iron
tropic ocean
#

@wispy iron ur boy got you

trim forge
#

do you guys swap to crimson tempest when doing M+ for the reaping or poison bomb all day every day

tropic ocean
#

@wispy iron from your logs if you have them check dmg done to lady jaina proudmoore, with ss he will probably pad on barrel/ele
Maybe its just in your sim, but you didn't upgrade your chest to 420 too

frigid briar
#

pretty sure perfecto will be open with garotte on 2 targets and get rupture on both targets and use toxic blade, then wait till you get 9 stacks of power. Drop vendetta vanish 3 garrotes ( 2 targets) and toxic blade

#

with on use trinket

hollow stone
#

@wispy iron what ausg said. Just look at jaina only dmg and im sure youll be smashing him. And since jaina dmg is all that actually matters, youre doing better

rose perch
#

ya that's what i've been doing on first boss (vanish before vendetta tho)

frigid briar
#

would love to see a rogue PoV tbh

warm parcel
#

Theres only one garr tho

#

Hes rocking ma

frigid briar
#

yeah, this is my first night in on rogue, I was on shadow last night. my gear on shadow is very makeshift though

#

got a log?

rose perch
#

(first boss) i open G1 G2 G3 R1 TB2 M2 R2

then once i have my stacks i vanish G G G TB blast

warm parcel
#

I mean the clip above shows nogga just inspecting him

rose perch
#

yeah that's for the second boss

frigid briar
#

yeah we mean first boss

rose perch
#

well some people are talkign about one and some the other

warm parcel
#

ah, just saw the clip

frigid briar
#

my guild wont be on 2nd boss for a few weks ๐Ÿ˜‰

warm parcel
#

Eeh

#

Seems not too nice for melee overall

tropic ocean
#

on first boss he was def using subterfuge

#

but not much sense to use it in 2nd

frigid briar
#

yeah, im kinda on the balance of, priest only having 395itmlvl and no sliver or rogue

#

Kinda hoping we clear BoD today instead

tropic ocean
#

im gearing my lock

#

so he can shine like he did in uldir \o/

frigid briar
#

@rose perch Can you survive crushing doubt without priest shields?

warm parcel
#

Just feint 4HEad

rose perch
#

not at 9 stacks

wispy iron
#

@tropic ocean thanks : -)))

tropic ocean
#

the most important part for jaina is the dmg in p3 anyways

#

and you should be far ahead with your setup over him

frigid briar
#

still annoyed feint doesn't do shit

warm parcel
#

Class team went way overboard with feint blacklisting

#

It went from one of the most awesome personal utility spells into totally useless

spice surge
#

Just specc Elusiveness 4Head

tropic ocean
#

imagine still having legion feint and crimson vial :^)

#

with the stacking % reduction

warm parcel
#

member tanking first boss in DS with feint?

#

pepperidge remembers

tropic ocean
#

btw. @wispy iron ur best stat is mastery, u might want to remove the haste gems and change to mastery<

#

to push dps more

#

3.42 vs 3.28

wispy iron
#

yeah I will rerun sims with gems ... also wondering whether take 2NP or 1x TTK

haughty lily
#

for a pure ST fight? in theory, what are the bset azerite traits? 3dd and 3 np?

tropic ocean
#

heavily depends on 3rd ring of the piece

#

e.g. ttk op > np xy

haughty lily
#

does third ring does that much?

#

do*

tropic ocean
#

if its overwhelming power, yes

wispy iron
#

yeah I can run with 3dd,1bbi,1np,1ttk and 3 overwhelimg ... I assume this would be the best for ST

tropic ocean
#

you need to sim it but I think even 405 dd ttk op > mekkatorque 420

wispy iron
#

i have 420 ๐Ÿ˜ƒ cephalohide ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
