3x DD and 3x NP is bis for raid, right? Looking to swap from outlaw for Jaina
Just cleave/prio
Going for only boss damage is not worth it.
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
Thought NP was insanly good?
It is
Oh i see
Ok
When OP and BBI procs at the same time.....

is NP mainly good for the energy regen?
@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
How much crit is it btw? 220crit for a 425?
Void crash removed it as I thought @vestal wren @civic palm
Have they released the actual azerite traits for the new Eternal palace raid?
@modest mason yeah, the damage is good but the energy reg matters a lot
But ofc doesn't stack
What kind of trait setup would you bee looking to run for first boss crucible mythic? 3x shrouded?
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
im just not sure how that visage from beyond works since it just sits there casting a fear XD
not every aoe spell is reduced by feint
Yeah, but the ones that are don't fuck with the boots
rogue defensives in general are super poor designed
(from a user perspective)
iirc boots are good if you have ~5 stacks average
so if the majority does not remove stacks ๐
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
so we have at least 2 good ones in the raid
well itemlvl jumps between tiers are high
Idd
this means your gear "now" will be replaced in heroic next raid
So these items will probs be obselete for m prog
thats nothing bad
I mean
thats how raid loot works
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
not all guilds are finished with bod progress
a ton of guilds is still progressing jaina
if the stacks dont reset on the dot
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
Idk it's tyr week wouldn't run 3 eb
The legs are Good? :o
But that's just me
Agree
but only cuz thats what gear allows atm
yup, exactly what im running
Maybe a bbi depends on dung
how you guys going on first boss mythic? we are getting to around 60%, just having interupt issues
farm content; but we have enough ranged to get them all usually
Bod mythic?
CoS
oh
u r already at 60%? wat
Yes, we are working towards the second relic on both
How far are method and limit?
limit 7%
We are 13 pulls in and our best is 64%
its literally interupts cucking us atm
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
when using MA do you ever use garrote or rupture out of vanish after the pull ( 2nd set of cds onwards ) ?
sorry that is with no ss
i basically do 2 things either tb mutilate envenom
or "gamble" build 4-5cp tb vanish envenom mutilate envenom
why is it gamble cant you pool it
how is that a gamble?
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
true 2 cp guaranteed
๐
treacherous is simming higher than np for me
while with tb its safe dmg
simming on patchwerk?
aye
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?
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
yeh like shit on mekkatorque
if you have encounters where you preferably want/need dps at point x like stormwall/jaina or rasta
i'd take np nevertheless
what trinkets would you guys use
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
ye it is slightly https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/vWE1y9c1uJFyN3bNZzq3wV
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?
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
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
u still dont want to sacrifice too much aoe
since u spend most time fighting trash anyway
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^^
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
oh okay, thats more accurate?
i'm running 2/2/2 this week
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
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
I personally don't really like bbi for m+
When in doubt go 222
ss on cabal feels reaaaaal good
I think 3 ttk 2 ss 1 eb is gonna feel super nice this week
Any idea of best azerites for M Cabale ?
I can run 3xSS 2xNP 1xDD
Maybe 3xSS 1xNP 1xEB 1xTTK and using FoK as builder
40% best attempt for tonight ๐ฆ better luck sunday
Seems like 3xSS 2xEB 1xTC is strong for 2target
id take BBI over TC, personally, but then again i wouldnt run any EB (1 at a push) for 2 target
why is NP not taken to M+ ? i see Only SS, TTK and EB
cause it has no value outside of Single target and a low % of the dungeon run will be ST fights
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
and what about this ID ? should i run 3EB or switch them for TTK ?
ID?
this week i ment ๐
completely up to you, i think its personal preference, you cant go wrong with SS/EB/TTK in any amount
i have only one SS
Esp during tyr weeks
You really lack behind during long bosses thanks to not having 3 traits
Yeah, like snimo said
Aslong as your 6 traits are a balance of ttk/eb/ss
apparently heroic legs are decent
so 3TTK/2EB/1SS is fine ?
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
that'll be fine
3xDD 2xNP and 1xBBI for m+ ?
oh i see xD i was like ๐ฎ new meta
I think taking a single dd is actually trolling for m+
If you're not doing something super niche
yeah id agree with that tbh
ideally i just wouldn't run NP unless i had nothing else
especially as if you're running any EB traits you're not gonna press mutilate outside of boss encounters
any 1 use lurkers gift trinky yet
It's nuts
yeah increased my ST sim by around 700 dps over a 410 golden plumage
I meant NP for m+
just try for it on heroic, its only marginally better at 425 vs 415
Ah
Well yeah
But we're stuck on m jaina
And I've currently got food poisoning
So I can't even do that
damn, i mean my guild are on Jaina right now, although im missing raid tonight to watch the football xD
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/dkVWTyJo6xtKbVLA9TmZG6
For reference thats the heroic trinket versus the mythic one.
200dps difference
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
๐คท
just pop lurk trinky on CD u reckon?
So I can try for the trink
in m+
reaping will want
and boss
rest gg
i guess
idk just got it gonna go deplete some keys wid it
brb
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
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
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
Myeh that's fair
Yeah shit's nasty
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
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 Iโve seen guides including icyviens stating that its great to have. Is this just outdated info?
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
@rigid mango are you not farming cos heroic before going to jaina?
to spread trinkets etc ?
Not sure tbh
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?
Ye
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 ><
Havent even gotten a respons from sebeks guild yet so idk if im even going to play
Yeah thats probably the play
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
Scent good for first boss?
Is SS even good? Idk if it lines up with debuff
Yes, scent is good when there is 3 targets constantly
Ah ok fair enough
dont have a better helm unfortunately
Have no clue what's going on in new raid
only other options would be fluid machinations which has eb/ss too, or champions which would be ss+tc/np
TL:DR of the new raid
Undertuned on heroic
Seemingly overtuned on mythic
Idk seli im considering the dark side
And going wits
How neatly stacked are they?
Is it constant bf value?
Worth going wits n dancing steel?
boys iโm pretty new to the game.. havenโt 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
this might be a really dumb question, but why am i getting combo points from auto attacks now?
ye, if you play lots of it
you can get higher ilvl gear than most raiders even, if youre constantly sitting at 2.4k+
word so once i hit 120 i donโt really have to pve dope ty
and one other thing.. how do i get this horde trinket everyone is talking about
well, it helps to get ilvl up early, doing arenas with low-ilvl is gonna suck
Horde trinket?
Aye we're just pve plebs here
oh just wasnโt sure if anyone knew
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.
Pvp trinket doesnt exist anymore its just a talent
warmode honor among thieves? @viscid token
omg thank you seliathan lol!

There you go
@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
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
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? ๐
but gotta keep cloak for soaking orbs :<
How much does the trink hit you for during the last 5-10 sec per tic?
9-11k
Aight so barely anything
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
ye sure
Like how high do you rate bbi @marble hemlock is it worth dropping a ttk for it?
@marble hemlock what traits are you gonna run for 1st boss assa wise
only one shrouded? hm
so for m+ what is the best setup of traits 2xEB,2xTTK,1xNP,1xSS ?
Not np
not even for tyranical weeks ?
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*
all right thanks, so I can do 2xeb,2xttk, 1bbi and 1 ss
ye
or 3xeb 1xttk, 2ss ... but
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)
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 ๐
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
It probably is tbh
well sim says no
but sims are sims
maybe it is in a real situation
I need to make a choice before tonight :3
throw a dice
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
is it first boss mythic you thinking?
yes
I'm not sure this encounter let you drop below 15% health anyway
Oh for some reason I thought you meant M_
Saw some limit tries last night, and they dropped alot all the time it looked like
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
yea maybe
Id still remove it, cause the difference cant be big for ya?
And risk vs reward.
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
all combinations are good to go - du you want more aoe/st/focus dmg. Thats it
does SS become better than NP/DD with the lurkers gift trinket?
do you guys use the m+ slice sim for m+ or something else?
how good are crucible pants?
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.
IS that worth for sin spec? I got it but I figured better for outlaw
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.
NP only sims higher for me on around 2min sims, TC usualy takes over at 5min sims, weird
GGthough, 29k club
Not sure if its asked already, but how are the new legs from CoS?
is it worth going down a few ilvls?
for me on 2 kills they couldnt compare to 415 legs
Alright, good to know ๐
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
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. Itโs the same situation for myself but I like rnging my way to thicc crits so I choose to go for the deadly enchant
So... all depends if I like more consistent dmg or rng crits
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
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
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
so the aoe bot dmg doesnt drop it? the tooltip says any dmg
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 ๐
The bot aoe doesnโt drop it no
I had 99% uptime on conclave as well I think itโs just non character specific stuff that wonโt drop it but sometimes Iโm like why did my stacks just drop
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
the NP not working bug is the most annoying thing in this game.....
NP not working?
From time to time traits will not work, it's not just NP.
Re-equip them and it should work
If it doesnt, relogg, and if that doesnt then reforge
I had no idea. Is it noticeable when it is not working? Also sorta a big bug
Not really, when it doesnt do damage anymore or the buff/debuff stops showing up
Mostly happens if you dc
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
you're kinda at a crossroads, where if you get DD on your helm you can swap to MA build...
Cowl actually does have a DD on it, but I lose my only copy of SS
jsut swap SS for DD on ur helm
and change builds
yeah, i forgot lmao
save your residium for 8.2
We are progging on Mekka and beyond so I suppose DD is straight away best anyhow..
I just love me SS/sub
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.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/4njVJsSFpDjBzgBqZysRWi so close yet so far
@ionic dome I used to have a big stealth icon for when I was stealth. WA can do it easily.
๐
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
I've been messing around with minimal auras anchored to personal resource thing

Guys, when do I vanish in pve? for example when there's 2 targets when do I vanish? and if there's 3+ targets?
SS or MA build?
what is MA? but I have atleast one shrouded suffo
wel SS it is then
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
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....
why would you want to just.. do less damage
Elab planning is very spikey.... I mean, how much uptime are you all getting I guess is my big questions.
i don't know, are you super undergeared?
403
haste and crit will effect uptime but not significantly enough for you to worry about
Post a log
Then no ones gonna be able to help
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
it keeps telling me the armory API is down.
probably because your name has 800 alt codes
just use the simc addon to give you a string
it has 1 lol
so it does
Prob not pooling energy properly
when should I pool energy?
Thats the reason most of the time for new ppl
maybe it's time to finally tackle that piece
Pool before TB so u can get 2-3 envenoms off in it
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
cp=combo ponts?
ye
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
feels like I only get Elab during opener/Vendetta
like... I get the initial, but having 2 finishers in 4 secs seems hard atm.
Itโs literally every finisher
i feel like you don't know what it does or something
hmm...
Are u mixing up elab with ma
Just by refreshing rupture and using 4cp envenom whenever you can youll have half decent uptime
no.
I guess it's fine then
cuz yes, it's always up
I thougt it only buffed finishers.
it's just 10% flat dmg after you cast a finisher
Youโre not gonna always fit an envenom in it
for 4 seconds
I can continue to work on better uptimes and pooling energy
Try to have more than 85% rupture uptime
And use tb on cd you wasted 3 possible tb casts
if you don't crit mut you're going to end up envenoming outside the elaborate window pretty frequently
goddamn the echoing pad is actually dirty https://i.imgur.com/a8g2VM1.png
Is there a pin somewhere about best taits for M+ dps affixs this week?
anyone here that does high m+ that could shoot me a snip of your stat weights?
yeah i've seen people aiming for like 1.6k crit and above
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
im looking to nuke high prio targets
play 3tk
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
do you run the master poison with TTK stack?
no
still EP
the point of the build is to fit as many envenoms into your tb windows on prio targets
aiming for 4?
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
yeah, now does that translate to boss dmg aswell? or is DD better for prolonged fights?
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
ah okay
in which case you'd probably leave to retalent/regear for stuff, and only really kings is like that
yeah im only running Sin for KR atm
so I just want to melt the elites in gauntlet and the bosses
i play sin in KR temple and shrine
yeah I was thinking for srhine aswell but I haven't been in there this week
vanish ggg with iron wire lets you pull really big to start
yeah the caster killer spec
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
yeah and they chunk
yeh 3 water blasts on a 20 tyr will nut on your tank
sin makes that shit really easy though
like on a 15 they'll die before they can cast again
I played sin at the start then went outlat for full unga bunga
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
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
yeah I do the same
I have been spolied by outlaw though
gouge? is insane for your interupt rot
yeh but shrine's actually the one dungeon where 3 silences is more impactful
yeah that and big ML pulls
other place you can argue is ML but i'll only play sin if there's an outlaw i trust in there
yeh
cuz when you play outlaw in ML you can solo 2 assassins with gouge/blind for hail of fletchettes
yup
personally a huge fan of engi belt too cuz another non-dr cc
I have it, I use it when i can remember to
yeh that's the hard part, it's a long ass cd and you forget you have it kinda
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.
Both are good. Honestly just play what you prefer
Play sin brother
i just got a 425 lurkers so i probably will ๐
grats!
that super nice trinket that you can't use on M cabal... We love Blizzard
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
What traits do people run i m+ this week?
imagine a trinket u get from 2nd boss heroic that hard ints first boss mythic
why did they do this
@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)
just started playing again last reset after quiting back in winter so i don't have that many choices with AP.
If you go to top gear on raidbots and send all your az pieces
I could try to give you a decent set up
I'd run harlan deadeye, but that's just because I cba using gcb
And also haste is quite bad for m+
So
my team lack boss dmg so I'm carrying that part atleast
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?
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?
im pretty sure i use right traits tho
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
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 :(
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
I dont want to use mouse over kick for the first time on jaina prog lol scary
even tho i just played for 1 reset.
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
nope i haven't since i just got back i went with the easymode wtalent xd
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
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
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
yupp, PL is so sad tho. kkinda why i Don't enjoy raiding anymore also
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)

YAY, 27k club welcomes me xD
gemmed 410 lurkers 
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 
just gear up a druid alt, reach 410 and enjoy your 29k sim dps
Dw 27k club is outdated
gz
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
missed both week's chances at lurkers because i was gone 1 and sick 1 so not getting that any time soon 
u can pug it
wait im so confused earlier i was testing boots with trinket and it was dropping my stacks
but now its not
with lurkers are your openers just big nuts?
wait does it drop it or not
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
o
isn't cabal mad random damage
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
eleem was saying that if you can't feint it it'll drop or something
and on meka it never dropped other than me gettin bomb
ill go pug a heroic and see
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
comparing it to my 410 boots with a socket its a 81 more stats
so 2 sockets
if i keep it at full stackies
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
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/dFBrnbzJAcwx3fRT#type=damage-done&boss=2269&difficulty=5&wipes=1 - Good afternoon gamers, long timer lurker. I was just progressing on The Restless Cabal Mythic (evitrix), and I was having issues keeping up with my moonkin tank. I cant seem to break 30k dps. Any tips?
ye if its same ilevel no socket its worth abotu 3 sockets
That's nuts
Does it scale better or worse with ilvl
than regular stats?
better, worse or equal
please respek azerite josh
wait is this bugged or did you really do all thesed pulls with ace and wits bro
Think he did some as outlaw some as sin?
oof
No, i was playing sin all night ๐
hm then it's bugged
did lurkers feel uncomfy on that fight or can i play it brother
@solar rose any thoughts?
the boots?
scale linearly
to a regular pair of boots
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
Myeh fair
every other crucible gear gets increased numbers except for the boots from the loot journal
@honest grail wth are u doing in here?
giving us content baby
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
unlucky that the trink'll probably not be used past hc prog on azshara
does 29k club exist guys?
Yeah, saw one yesterday
Hey guys, I need some help
sup
Hey Odo what's good
I'm trialing for a guild tonight, on mekka MM
So far my dps has been shit
What traits/talents + do you have a log?
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?
Aye do you have any BoD logs etc
Mekke isnt a very melee friendly fight by any means
I had to play pretty risky to keep my damage up
I have 3x Double dose, 1x Shrouded, 1x Covenant & 1x Scent of blood
I don't have any Mekka logs, never done it
No one in the guild logging the pulls?
I have some from the 3 first bosses but I changed a lot of things since then
Either way, talents look about standard, I'd recommend elusiveness for mekka M over cheat
idk it sorta sucks only running 1 ss imo
I don't have any other azerite pieces :/
esp on mekka where you wont get any good multi garrotes
I experimented with SS in mekka as well, but ended up sticking with DD traits
aye
You'll have to get a feel for the fights' pattern and make sure you refresh dots before running off with a mechanic, etc
idk I'm really liking MA now so, It just sorta feels a little bad taking sub because of 1 SS
MA?
Oh I made a mistake actually, instead of covenant I'm running Nothing personnal
THe talent? Is it any good?
I mean, given I only have one SS, would it be worth for me to change?
My only alternative to SS is tradewinds
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
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
Use topgear on raidbots.com
how much uptime can you suspect for the boots dropped by uu'nat during let's say mythic grong?
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
so they're worth more than 5 ilvls in a lot of fights?
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
good to know, thank you
Is there anywhere in logs I can find out the avg crit the boots gave during one of my fights?
Im abit confused about Azerite talents
Do i stack Shroud Suff? or is that been to hard nurfed?
pve and pvp
@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
This is what wowanalyzer is supposed to do for us but its not supported ๐ฆ
You only want 1 SS in pvp @tall pelican Check the pins in #pvp
that's how many you want for 2+ target boss fights and M+
@rose perch https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/Ja3Qqz4TAchbC76G#fight=4&type=damage-done Nothing special just did a quick normal grong kill to see what they were like after what Eleem said
Was really hoping for it to show like BBI on wowanalyzer but alas ๐ฆ
Look at the buff untouchable
And pin it
You can see the level of stacks you had at each point
how much haste yall usin for assass m+ recently
I mean I cannot since I have raid gear on but once I get home sure I can swap and screenshot
wtf so u use like 6%
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
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+
Vast majority of the dungeon is still non-bosses
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
40%
Shrine and Temple rings 415 with sockets
Nah without
Then I have Dice and Spyglass as trinkets
damn so u got the mast too
Exactly
"Farm" I killed normal and HC last week and this week. Rip
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
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?
For echo blades to trigger again after the 5 hits do we need to leave combat before we Can do it again?
no
Its per cast, so no
it will pop another mini fok on target location
with 8yrd range
@ashen breach
beware my superior paint skills
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.
So 405 vs 410 socket and they are just a little bit worse but with higher variance?
Yeah, I'd say about .5% worse with higher variance, even though sims say it should be about 1% increase.
For closest raid comparison in BFD, what do you guys use for raidbots? Some movement?
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
@wispy iron on what fight? for 1st cos bos, its because of the high multitarget i suppose
hard to say, as armory is from last logout, they are on 2nd boss
to bad he is not streaming ๐
on 2nd boss he will probably use more st setup
as there is not much cleave involved
well the problem with SS is it just sim bad .. but in reality its not bad at all
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
this is mine Jaine setup ... https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/wfwQxsd1jx9THEq5PPn8XB ... but friend of mine who is playing assa is playing with SS / subterfuge ... and he have exactly same dmg in total for all pulls as me ...
@wispy iron ur boy got you
perfecto is using 3x dd 1x bbi 2x np on 2nd boss
do you guys swap to crimson tempest when doing M+ for the reaping or poison bomb all day every day
@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
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
@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
ya that's what i've been doing on first boss (vanish before vendetta tho)
would love to see a rogue PoV tbh
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?
(first boss) i open G1 G2 G3 R1 TB2 M2 R2
then once i have my stacks i vanish G G G TB blast
I mean the clip above shows nogga just inspecting him
yeah that's for the second boss
yeah we mean first boss
well some people are talkign about one and some the other
ah, just saw the clip
my guild wont be on 2nd boss for a few weks ๐
yeah, im kinda on the balance of, priest only having 395itmlvl and no sliver or rogue
Kinda hoping we clear BoD today instead
@rose perch Can you survive crushing doubt without priest shields?
Just feint 
not at 9 stacks
@tropic ocean thanks : -)))
the most important part for jaina is the dmg in p3 anyways
and you should be far ahead with your setup over him
still annoyed feint doesn't do shit
Class team went way overboard with feint blacklisting
It went from one of the most awesome personal utility spells into totally useless
Just specc Elusiveness 4Head
imagine still having legion feint and crimson vial :^)
with the stacking % reduction
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
yeah I will rerun sims with gems ... also wondering whether take 2NP or 1x TTK
for a pure ST fight? in theory, what are the bset azerite traits? 3dd and 3 np?
if its overwhelming power, yes
yeah I can run with 3dd,1bbi,1np,1ttk and 3 overwhelimg ... I assume this would be the best for ST
you need to sim it but I think even 405 dd ttk op > mekkatorque 420
i have 420 ๐ cephalohide ๐
