You might want to replace that agility gem too
what to? iv had those boots for so long haha
With 3dd and 3 np, usually mastery sims highest but it depends on haste value. But ya sim it
Also you have a 420 dice

Jealous
i spam so much m+ haha
Iโm 419 with a 400 dice 
imagine rolling for 5 shoulders and not getting gorak tuls but then first shoulder roll on your druid its gorak tuls
iv had high altitude turban twice ๐ฆ
i want my 3xSS and 3xEB but its not gunna happen lol
I have the 3 eb and 3 ss but we havent killed conclave in 2 months so I'll never get the 420 chest
im locked in 3xEB, 2xTTK 1xSS and im totally fine with that ๐
but ye I want the opulence helmet but we are perma locking until we kill her (or more likely next patch comes out)
haste gems sim higher apparently
same
what's your dungeon slice sim with those azerite @modest tendon
the twist build
one min in dungeon
for m+, should i get more than 1 ss trait?
You don't need to get more than 1
but it's still a very good trait
And getting more wont hurt you
Okay cool. its either a 2nd SS or...tidal surge >_<
you get more meter padding with 2 or 3 ss, perhaps less practical but gives you impressive pushing power
Depends on the week, but sure
if i could i would use 3xSS and 3xEB for all keys under 15 tbh
like a month ago i started getting into rogue, i disenchanted the head piece becuase i thouught it was shit haha, got my refund back a couple days ago and now my build is as good as it will get
yeah for tyrannical you'll definitely shit on my boss damage
i still dont do as much single target as I'd like but thats probably me being a shit player rather than my gear
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/iMvLZzQ5XPGTd9C7exB2L3 is what I've been running lately. obviously nothing higher than 15s. once I get more twists for tyrannical weeks I'll be more inclined to
I mean, that build runs 3eb which isn't definetivly the best
It's just the one thing that keeps us on par with outlaws
I mean, sure
a saber with a socket dropped off jaina last week and I was a bit sad I didnt get it
i can go outlaw when needed tbh so im not that worried
Ir depends more on your group tbh
3 eb is nuts durint tyr weeks
Since trash is easy, you masspull
Masspull = 3 eb nuts
You still spend majority time on trash
triple shrouded for bosses though really soesnt net a ton of damage sadly when it's high tyrannical though. that's when I wish I had a twist or two
but man 3 shrouded on trash is pog
Being a Nelf pushes SS value up
Esp fort kr keys where you don't pull more than packs of around max 5 bar reap and 3rd boss room
Still plenty of good options though, which is nice
what is your dream build for KR zine?
I've been playing exsang 3 shrouded for m+ forever. just not a fan of tb without a poison related trait
Sorta depends though, i normally run with aoe pumpets
the smaller packs would mean 2ss, 2ttk, 2eb would work quite well also right?
So i can sacrifice heavy aoe for more focused damage
i guess this is pretty small stuff though
Aye, 2/2/2 is very good in there
It just depends on what your group lacks/what week/what you prefer
Tbh
2/2/2 is always good in like kr/tos
Always good anywhere, just gets outperformed by some other builds sometimes
3 ss is nuts in kr tho, esp with exsang
Last boss fucking MELTS
Save vanish for when the raptors come in, and just melt
I'm generally a bigger fan of heavy ttk builds more so because I like how they play
damn i need me a third ss, havent experimented with exsang much
although iv barely got the tb rotation down lol
lower keys
Even more so if ur nelf
focus targets
Lower keys = shit dies fast
Aka not always full ss value
But like
Nelf 3 ss
Get 9 empowered garrotes

I'm just interested in seeing what next season will give
W reap gone maybe 3 eb wont be the play often
It's my kink to do kr, do the opening pull w 3 ttk and tell my group to just pad instead of focusing the caster
See 3ttk tb vend envenoms chunk
Honestly both your set ups are fine, just new daggers
I'm flipping over to sin since my guild has made it to mekka prog, would anyone mind taking a look at this and telling me if they'd swap around any az traits, etc? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/eUoKTfVi1ko3qGNXsmemZt
is your mastery v low?
relatively, yeah, 535
What's that in %?
so across 27 wipes last fight it had 82% uptime
w/ 80% uptime 2nd NP sims better
Yeah, I'd go for 2np^^
While I'm at it, I also have pistoleers spaulders @ 420, which sim about half a % higher
ttk+scheming
(if TC only has 80% uptime from my shoulders)
I'd stick with same probs
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/tkLYy6avqnxnXdR4TMZNPX <- worth taking the 405s?
Oh they're 405 thought smth was weird
Ehh, neither are greay
Ir you chat with your healers about keeping you up a bit more maybe
I'll do that, I guess I should also look in to when I'm dipping and losing the buff
i.e. doesn't matter as much if it's when I'm running away with a bomb
I almost wish I hadn't looked
I melee'd mekka 6652 times, only had TC up for 1938 of those
207/497 pistol shots
Works out to ~41% uptime?
also, accidentally simmed the same shoulders twice
I got a couple 420 options (plugged in w/ 40% TC uptime lol)
we're extending
this guy is a reroll so my gear is kinda wacky
First 3 bosses go down in like 15 min
and since it's a substantial upgrade still, just ask if you could do it and peeps could trade you
I'll see what they're in to, even with me being down 500-1k dps or w/e from a shoulder upgrade it's prolly not the thing that will make or break our mekka kill
it's like, people not bombing the raid
Iโm more worried about reclearing the ones past that, we just got out first Rasta kill 1.5 weeks ago
But yeah, I dig it
question for all of you! is Assassination viable in M+
Yes, very much so
yeah its very good
hmm i am kinda newish to assassination (not that new), but I feel like i dont use enough the disable (kidneyshot etc.) for using the prey of the weak. maybe i should change for iron wire for garrote silence?
i feel like I dont really use that much of that to make use of that talent
any ideas? or should i just force myself to use more those disables?
You don't use prey as sin
garrote silence is really strong in m+
The other two options are just better
iron wire ftw
Iron wire is really really good for m+
It gets even higher value in some dungeons where that silence is worth tons
ok i really thought so I was following the icy veins guide and they said prey was top of the talent tree
big shrine silences
and iron wire is situanational
Icy veins is outdated
*situational
and shouldn't be followed
doesnt it still say to take master poisoner
ok so I should go for sure to iron wire good to know
instead of ep
they said all three lano depending on your likings ๐
yea i use EP ๐
but i really wasnt sure bout prey
Then iirc MP is good, but I'm not a pvp expert so
Like, for m+ you use the same set up
in every key apart from tyr kr/tos
where I swap CD for elusiveness, apart from that, nothing changes
if we are bout the garotte thing: the silence always gets up the 8secs when i use it? or is there some timer when the silence happens?
or the 3 secs. the talent doesnt specify it that much
hm?
The talent increases the duration of the silence by 3 sec
and gives the target a 15% dmg done reduc for 8 sec
yea the question is for example I hit target 1 with garotte and he is silenced for x seconds. when i refresh garotte during that x seconds the silence expanse to the max again?
*extend sorry
they're only silenced if garrote is cast from stealth
ah ok
what talents should you use for Sin in M+
@rigid mango even on fortified weeks?
Yep
Only swap CD with Elusiveness for tyr KR/TOS keys
Other than that, I don't swap anything
HB is also viable if you run 3xEB
interesting, I figured crimson tempest / exsang would be better during fortified weeks
due to the higher trash hp %
Exsang is nearly never better
If you're running 3ss and nelf, possibky
CT is just bad, EB does more dmg per GCD
And HB is Viable sorta with 3 eb
Double Dose does it workout in M+ or no
Any tips for using shadow step to avoid dying on m mekka? Just spam someone on the ground?
DD means you want to be mutilating
But in m+ you want to be using FoK
With EB traits
@modest violet just shadowstep the boss
Does anyone even really use exsang anymore
It's decent in some situations
can be good if u wanna parse first couple bosses I think
3 SS exsang blast on KR keys
last boss
dies so fast
yeah, but i just feel that TB doesn't require as much gear setup and is mostly better anyway
and even in M+, since i have a couple TTK traits, toxic blade is quite decent if using FoK to funnel to one target on cleave
and imo CT just seems like a trap talent
EB is so good in reaping... and as much as i dislike teeming having such big reaping waves can be fun with eb
Aye, and it plays exactly into eb so
i have a dream that one day ct will proc venomous wounds
@vast forum Wouldn't that put you in his blastoff?
not if you shadowstep after the blastoff
just don't spam it
shadowstep when he's alrdy in the air
ct proccing venomous wounds would just be stupid
It'd be insanely good
Like, just insane
imagine running CT 3 EB in that case
you could even go MA?
it would either be insanely goo
Just fucking 1 CT into fok spam
good*
or our ST would be insanely bad
cuz if you balance our ST around having x energy
Aye
Yeah
Hey guys. What kind of nameplates can you recommend, im using ElvUI right now but with zero customisation to the nameplates. I want to only show Garrot and Rupture over the target.
I feel lke a lot of talents this expansion are just there for inconvenience
or just there
for no reason
I mean
i can recommend Plater
Last tier could be a bit better balanced
But next season might tip it onew ay or the other
they're not astronimical lenghts away frome one anotehr
esp hb vs pb
I'm not only talking about rogue talents
@icy ember is Plater easy to configure?
everything
Plater is great
The wealth of customization as well as the fact that there are profiles and mods for it on wago
@hardy eagle well yes, you can customize it as well.. i use @solar rose list of plater settings
Plater is the last thing that would be considered "easy" to configure.
There are a lot of options so it can seem a little daunting at first but it's quite easy
Sure you don't have to do the scripting yourself, but it's a short step from that .
well you can copy some other dude's settings and use em, so yes, it is easy
I'm trying to remember what HB is
Hidden blades
oh ok
I wouldn't consider "configuring" anything if you just copy someone else's configuration, but sure, importing is almost painless!!
Alright. The main thing im lookin at is if im able to create nameplate profiles for different specs. Since i want to only see Garrot and Rupture, but once i play my druid i wanna see my dots aswell.
For example, there's a talent in the last row of BM hunter that is like 1k dps less than the viable talent
importing is priceless and easy 
Most of the time you should not have to worry about DoTs appearing for other specs/classes if they are only tracking YOUR DoTs.
What is NGL
not gonna lie*
why are people making abbreviations for everything these days
I prefer the term old fuck
lazy fucks
actually the worst
Yeah but then you run the risk of having to explain to the elderly that words can exist in a shorter format.
@visual quartz
Anyway, nameplates are neat, and Plater is a pretty neat option.
Also very lightweight.
make a pinned message that just has all the abbreviations ๐
haha yeah. Its kinda confusing if people only write abbreviations and you dont have a clue what the fuck theyre talkin about. For example every spell in this game. ๐
but then people have to check the pins 
so what do you think about some talents being like 1k dps behind
I think its more about each class too. We all play rogue so rogue abbreviations are easy. Head over to warr discord and I'd be lost as shit
I think the talents are designed to have a clear winner, only to have traits be sometimes designed around making others win out over the traditional winners.
Maybe I've been playing WoW for too long, but when I was looking into classes like Warlock as alts and they use abbreviations, it's kinda easy to fill in the blank
CoC though.
Zeidrich summed it up.
What some CoC?
Ooga booga
rend 
Who is this ugly smiling man in your gif
Here's some help;
Now...
these might not help you in #assassination ...
but they might help.
Miz helping out the masses
I figured SnD would be better because RB has RNG
If SnD would be viable i might give Outlaw another try.
but apparently not
But this RNG shit is really dumb.
I'd probably use STA and not Stam for Stamina though.
Not that this is #outlaw , but all you have to do is NOT reroll RTB and it's better than SnD.
You dont know my badluck.
-> #wow-general this isn't assa boys ๐
SnD was part of SINs kit for a long time, how dare you.
believe me, I've had my share of bad luck rolls lmao
SnD was part of every spec since vanilla to mop
not so much sin in vanilla though
you'd rarely use that in pvp
I mean sub
not sin
Bingo ๐
Finally got a 3x ttk set. Feels fucking goooood
woo
what's that
That's actually a good question.
TTK?
Time to Kill, or, Twist the Knife.
I don't think I've seen this before
Twist The Knife
oh probably twist
Twist the Knife in this case.
I mean
all the major ones
like major talents, major traits
are quite easy to get the hang of
Finally got a 3x time to kill set. 
Yeah but TtK is a strange fucking mess of letters.
3 time to kill
is Envenom your 1st damage with TTK?

I don't remember that trait
Nothing personnel kid
some rogue in my guild has nothing personal as his 1st damage
It was weird seeing a trait be 1st
really? because I see that every time I hover over him
well, guess I misread something
well, he's the 1st in dps so i dobut he doesn't press anything else lmao
NP is a good amount of damage but it should not be top damage at the end of a fight more than uhhh... 1min?
Yeah I probably saw that atfter wipes
don't mind me
But yeah.
Like a trait that will overall have the most damage done after a dungeon/fight?
yeah
Echoing Blades does in dungeons.
and technically Shrouded Suffocation could if your pulls are small.
That's more the trait helping than doing all the damage though.
even the rogue in my guild rolling with 3xNP its like his 5-6th dmg ability
I know this is not outlaw but it irritates me that all the damage in aoe is going to Blade Flurry
instead of respective abilities
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
My garrote is like 80% plus in M+ lol
3 SS?
probably
3ss 2EB 1TTK
I want to play some assa for a while but i do't have 2 daggers
so is sub still subpar?
Yep.
well hopefully it would scale well
does assa have a similar playstyle to sub in aoe?
The SIMs show SUB performing well enough pretty much everywhere, people simply don't wanna play it because OTL and SIN are better.
like, I think you'd use shuriken/fok, Nightblade/Rupture, evi/envenom
do you spread nightblade on every target?
what are you playing
Trait wise?
The talk
assa spec channel talking about sub balancing
I have myself to blame
sooner or later @meager nebula is gonna come in here with his god damn police emote
SOONER OR LATER
pings the problem
Yeah, obviously.
it would've helped if you had just stayed on topic
no
no pirate best
if you want to do spec comparisons, #wow-general is the place for that
outlaw seems nutty in cleave fights, maybe m+ ๐คท , sub maybe, don't know anything about the spec
yesh
Asn is just so chill to do good numbers, perfect spec
It's quite satisfying to play, imo
Yeah it is
There's a lot more thought and planning than in outlaw, but outlaw is much more on your toes playstyle
I like both, and play both
I wish they reverted the envenom animations to the previous one though
Made my rogue back in Wrath as a getaway from mage high tier raiding. Fell in low
love*
Assa was cool in wotlk
only played rogue in bfa, so far no plan on stopping
you had slice and dice
I think envenom increased the duration of SnD
back in wotlk
so you never had to use it more than once
when was it designed well
Ever since mop we started losing our abilities every expansion
SnD? Any time you might have to manage it.
inb4 next expansion is up on ps4 and xbox
Otherwise it didn't exist or was managed by something else.
so with the vision of perfection essence......if it procs vend AND you have NP on your azerite do you think it'll add the DoT also?
nvrming answered
o _o
on a boss like triad on waycrest
how many bleeds should I maintain before i begin to lose damage on ST
Hmm on like a fort week w/ lust its probably not worth multi dotting at all, on a tyran week maybe in the post lust part of the fight where resource starts being an issue it might be worth multi-dotting one add (maybe even time it so the dot is up for the next add that gets the iris), if you're running a SoB trait it may be worth rupturing both the other 2 adds
if you don't do envenoms in the opener you potentially don't get an opener
so it's not really worthwhile
Says Damaging Abilities ye?
Doesn't say anything actually, I hate this tooltip. Comments say it can procs on DoTs though.
as of 8.0.1
Hi. how many targets do i start using fan of knives instead of mutilate for combo points?
OH there is a guide
The guide covers it well
Is energy pooling before TB window still a thing? Any tips regarding this?
why should it not be
well, keep your bleeds up, use mulitate durring the envenom buff for the double poison/dd dmg, and then only use envenom/mulitate too waste energy until TB is up
To not waste energy*
Should I track the envenom buff? To fit in as many mut within it as pos?
only use envenom outside of TB too spend energy before you cap
and yeha, it helps too track the envenom buff, but you still only want too mulitate too the ussual 4-5 cp
well you will not do more than 2 mutilates anyway, since you get to 4-5 CP with that
Hey guys could you please clarify the standard opener for me?
wowhead guide says
With SS, Subterfuge and Toxic Blade:
Garrote
Rupture
Garrote
Vendetta
Toxic Blade
Continue normally until...
Vanish when Garrote has dropped off completely after a finisher.
2x Garrote and a finisher.
Should I really put up the first Rupture with not full CP? Isn't it a dps loss?
If I should - when do I refresh it then? During vendetta? Kinda crosses up with "put up all your bleeds before the Vendetta"
Ty in advance
rupture doesn't do more tick damage per combo point
and you refresh whenever you need to, basically at pandemic
you're not really going to have a vendetta without reapplying a single bleed very often
baa ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
You refresh the next time it's about to drop off.
^???
sim yourself and follow the guide bro
askmrrobot and the noxxic guide? roger that officer
i'll be tippy topping the meters in no time

Is there any difference between offhand / mainhand, for example with enchants and different GS weapons?
gutripper vs heed my call for m+?
hmc
What's everyone running trait wise this week?
I assume you're NA
Correct lol..I'm making the switch from outlaw back to assassination I think =/
Good choice brother
Raging necro tyr
Same thing we run every week, pinky
Uhh, 2/2/2
I play sin for m+ and raids, it's too fun tbh
just got a 420 gcb... i dont raid on my rogue anymore ๐
^
hahaha true
Are there bis pieces for head and chest similar to gts mantle
wdym
Do you guys think a 1k diff in dps is worth switching from [Subterfuge] to [Master Assassin] and losing SS?
From 24,299 to 25,481
Got so used to my opener with SS.
Still use vanish on CD to do opener again when not speced into SS and subterfuge?
Assassination Guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
should check this out
Oh was on that site but under wrong rotation section. Wasn't aware of a specific Master assassin talent rotation. Vanish mid rotation. Wow. That's new for me. ty
Are there any particular dungeons where I should be using CT?
And only rupture three targets, right?
4-5
if you still have garrotes rolling from your opener, then 2-3 is enough to be energy-neutral however
So throw another one or two up after garrote falls off?
yup
depending on your energy levels, you wanna be prepared for that or you might starve energy for a few GCDs
i.e. when your 3 garrote are at 1/2/3sec left and you still only have 2 ruptures, and are sitting at ~30energy
youre gonna starve
Gotcha. Thanks a lot for the help.
and then theres always the option of sniping mobs that are about to die with a high-cp rupture for energy refunds, depending on the pull you can sustain energy that way as well, which allows you to use more GCDs on fok instead
mostly helpful in some reaping pulls or with low-hp mobs like blobs in shrine where you dont wanna have a 5-7GCD ramp-up for sustain
๐
Are there good single target chests and heads from the vendor
Similar to how Gorak Tuls is best in the shoulder slot
quick question. for off hand dagger do u want ilvl or socket? for instance i have 415 and 410(both non socket) daggers but sim keeps saying 400 with socket is best(while using 420 socket in main hand)
depends on the ilvl difference
but for off hand 5 or 10 lvls are usually inferior to socket
OP is too strong
just run a stat weight, it will show you the weights for ilvl so you can compare
triple DD doesn't win out
D:
still going to run triple DD ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
Out of curiosity, how much leech would leeching poison have to give you to make it worth taking over the other talents?
In your Opinionโข
like a billion
too much
cheat death is basically a second life on most mechanics that can kill you from full life
leeching poison would have to overheal somehow and form a shield that serves a similar purpose to warrant using
or a very specific scenario, i guess
Is the assassination module for wowanalyzer any good?
good enough to show you basic flaws in your gameplay yes
leeching on jaina you brave as hell
Are there any particular WA things you guys like to use? I have trackers set for my DoTs and for the subterfuge buff.
how much uptime do u guys usually have on blightborne?
@granite beacon i use mizerokk rogue was
!wa
Assassination WA's for BFA:
https://wago.io/HJUbINlV7 (Mizerok's Group)
https://wago.io/E1EB91OtM (Lokkek's Group)
https://wago.io/SyLUNGD4X (Sovv's Group)
https://wago.io/SJLQKGjMM (Afenar's Group)
https://wago.io/ByzCxPq-m (Devlin's Group)
and some m+ related ones like cd tracker, kick tracker, targeted spells
pimps his shiiiiiiiiit
Note: The latest WA update defaults pixel glow width to 4px and not 1px because who fucking knows why and I updated the thingie for that soooogogetit.
i had 15% uptime on stormwall, 13% on rasta and 8% on conclave this reset
maybe ur boss uptime is low?
wtf
I'm more asking about specific things to track, than entire set-ups.
https://gyazo.com/eb85de6fcbbe80e1952e12a3835394f1 this was my stormwall
idk my uptime is somewhere between 20-30% mostly
maybe u bad uptime/dont use enough spells?
like having lower apm than you should have
my uptime is fine etc
@granite beacon Just CDs and needed DoTs really, everything past that is fluff IMO.
my logs are fine
Aight.
it just weird i got really low uptime on the buff
Honestly if you don't need to track CDs because you've got some wide-eyed for periphery
idk i've pretty much consistent uptime in every kill
sometimes some really good procs but never really bad ones idk
think its related to apm/uptime
It's 1PPM + Haste more than likely.
ye i dno, my uptime is basically 99% according to logs and only time im not using spells is when im pooling for TB
i saw some rogue on first boss had 5 proccs during that fight
had the buff basically the whole fight
uhhuh
47 procs in about 42min fight time
About right.
whatโs the best haste % for single target?
There is no best haste
average
4Head
Vers probably wins that yeah.
maybe crit
What no.

You smelly potato.
wait
over 100% you get extra damage
you dont crit 2x per spell if u have 200% crit?
raidbots vs pawn is off on my sin gear
:^)
raidbots and pawn are supposed to be linked by you yourself anyway unless you're using the default weights
so they'll always be the exact same in terms of 'stat weights' which suk anyways
with Shrouded suffocation and TB, in the ST opener, do I Vanish as the first 24 sec Garrote runs out or do I do it earlier to line up with vendetta?
You will sync vendetta+vanish later in the fight.
so 2nd vendetta is delayed to line up?
@civic palm I mean vers scales forever yeah, but mastery too
and mastery is better for sin
Mastery doesn't scale auto-attacks, VERS WINS!!

theres a guy in my guild saying he looted a 420 ilvl dagger from the chest
is that possible?
on an alt fosure si i cant raid inspect him
Ye
What?
I got my 420 dagger from chest. Why would you think someone would lie about that anyways?
Does that seem low for my ilvl?
!essence
Gone
Ah
Fair enough
anyone willing to take a look on my logs etc? not sure whether I am just unlucky procs or there is some serious issue, I just can get the better parse, https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/vDTbwzhMcLkVagYZ#fight=19&type=summary&source=2&view=timeline , I can upload the video as well if you want
SIming for 395 is not bad. Helped me pick the better of the 13 rings I had LOL. As long as you don't mean pike a couple hundred dps off.
I mean you can sim and check pieces
but there's no reason to try to compare yourself to good dps sims when you're so far off being there
Ah yeah. Of course not
Asking if your dps is good for 397 is just not very productive tbh
I am not really digging this master assassin opener with no SS. Miss SS ๐ฆ
You're right about the dps at 395. I know it works okay if you have no idea what traits to use at all but that is about it
Best part of MA is no delayed vanish
Also I got used to the SS and sub talent and multi dotting classes for more energy. Felt higher skillcap
I mean, it's also the fact that there aren't a lot of people with optimal gear at that level
True. Both CDs come up at same time
So you can't ever compare to anything, really
Good point Zine
I find that my dmg drops off over time in MA though vs SS opener but maybe will time it gets better
But my burst hitd close to 70k
exp with mythc+ on it? Would it be good to burst the bosses down?
so I would just switch to my other armor at 405 vs my 420 for the SS trait and go sub
Easy enough
You need atleast one SS and sub for m+
And the traits that are actually good for m+ compared to raid
Yeah I could not imagine going in there without at. At times I have beat combat and DH damage with it
differ entirely, for assa
aoe dmg that is
hm
Thanks for that info
?
Was saying with SS I was getting some high aoe numbers vs DH and outlaw
I keeping calling outlaw, combat -.- old habbit
Yeah, well assa has one of the highest dps in the game for aoe
if you build it for it
That is right there are other traits for it but never speced into it
You'll out damage outlaws , just depends on pulls etc
If I can keep up with a good geared one I am more than happy. Plus on boss fights we just melt the meters
I usually at 409 was doing 25k plus on boss gihts. Last week was hitting 35k by the end of it. 2xNP and a SS
Gotcha EU
2xNP in fortified week YIKES
I have ended fights with that dps on fort weeks but with luston third boss motherload
I've seen some sin player that blast bosses with full raid az in m+
still slows down the key more than an unholy doing 15 k ST
Yeah
So does the guide have what traits to use on certain affix weeks?
Okay. I wouldn't have known until someone mentioned bad traits for it
I assume you can't sin for it.
So you guys just know what all to use week after week
When it comes for sin, that is
Yeah, I mean it doesn't change drastic amounts
normally a trait or two I swap around
Okay. Got to research it more. Normally stayed static with the traits.
I mean
You could do that
For m+
You could play 2/2/2
every week, and still be quite well off
2 2 2? like 2 eb 2 ttk and 2 ss if I have it
ok tyvm
It'll work well, any and every week
Thanks for the help. Been static based off sims and mainly focusing on raid with guild. Mythic+ we didn't have a hard time in but i am doing 10-11
cannot figure out why these two rogues agility is so greatly different (two of the top parses for sin on M jaina)

vs
please advise
in full raid gear/buffs my agi is like ~8100 at 417/418 ilvl
how does cryll have 9204 agi showing in his stats vs fantom at 8097 agi showing in stats..... i must be missing something obvious here
Belt, boots, waist are over half the difference alone
its not
I'd think it's cause the log takes the stats from the beginning of the fight
when that rogue has prepot
well like I said, unbuffed they dont have 1k different agi
@drifting cloud @distant lava this makes way more sense
theres no way a difference of 2-3ilvl would be 1200 agi different
must be prepot then?
@drifting cloud your example shows fantoms agi over 9k on that wipe but on his #1 parse it shows 8097
What made people stop taking ct in dungeons
Hey guys, should crimson tempest be used in any circumstances? Some guides say yes others donโt.
how do people feel about using Leggings of the Aberrant Tidesage @410 for jaina progression?
err, i mean Stormglide Steps
ya, ticking dot breaks them
Would you like to take less stats for no reason yes or no?
to feel C O N N E C T E D
is there a list for bis az pieces for raiding?
uhh tehre isn't a list afaik. but best pieces for patchwerky fights, like last 3 in bod
first boss helm/goraks/cepha are bis
lol
azerite still has kinda bis
tbh, bis is stormwall helm, gorak tul's and pvp chest that is exactly the same as cephalo, but has resounding protection
What's better, 420 Lurker's +415 Plumage, or 420 Lurker's+ 380 Dead-eye Spyglass?
It seems like a pain to manage two on use but idk
Simming will tell you
It is, and it's bad
Especially when both want to be used during vend
Neither of the above are good, get a new dice/spyglass
plumage is good, not sure how a 380 deadeye could compete or am I in the dark?
Double on use
oh 2 on use
When both want to be used during vend
How come akundas is less good for sin
Akundas?
kimbuls razor claw?
aye
iirc the trinket procs more with higher haste values, and sin benefits from stats quite a bit more than say, outlaw
if you take this chart as a general guide for how well trinkets perform, kimbuls is already worse than the good dungeon trinkets, add in the fact that it does not scale well with additional targets, and that there are very few pure ST fights in the game at the moment, stat trinkets are just better for all content as sin
Hello, just wanted to ask whats the best trait stacking for mythic BFA atm. I keep seeing people going 3x shrouded instead of DD idk why
for what, raiding?
Yea
Depends on the fight
Im gna go for 8/9 mythic starting tmrw
Then DD
How so
It's an insane number?
Check few logs
Up to storm
Killed em before btw ^
Just wanted to see what traits would work best
Cuz i see alot of people using 3x shrouded
Yeah, on bosses with cleave
not last 3, where bosses have barely any cleave
and most of it is straight forwards ST
So basically if i wanna boost my dps
Up to the last 3 bosses
Go for 3x shrouded
And once i reach mekka go back to DD
More or less, there are arguments for either
Since entire raid doesn't seem like farm
I wouldn't do that
rasta, SS is better, but it's more pad and dps whoring
than actual valuable ST dmg that you get from DD MA
Same for opu, unless you lack aoe dps
Xd
For a melee class on stormwall, 30k is insane
First boss i should be fine doing 23k i guess
You shouldn't care about first boss
It's a god damn meme boss
no one cares about logs from there

same for opu
All bfa bosses are trash imo, jaina is the only one worth
Maybe mekka and storm abit
Thats why i asked abt traits, wanted to log em tmrw
I checked wcl on people who did the bosses
Most of them went 3x shrouded
Which made me wonder big time dfq is going on
gl parsing
Oh one more thinng
Sup
2x nothing personal or should i get 1x and 1x trech?
399 ilvl almost at 400
Any different parameters when simming for a Raid environment, or is Patchwerk 1 boss 5minutes sufficient?
patchwerk is sufficient enough
Appreciated, thank you.
2x NP vs 1x Trech are going to be close in a sim but I would look at fight length if you are just barely getting another Full vendetta the value of more of that trait is better. Look at your old logs to see similar kill times for your group in particular and guess from there if the difference is small in the sim IMO @strange python
I like not having a TC when progressing Jania too but I was mostly just paranoid of last phase. Some people will have bigger balls
hey guys im new to sin swapping from outlaw, is there any specific times when I should be pooling energy? like a few seconds before toxic blade comes off cd or something?
ideally you would pool to get back into the envenom groove
I personally pool between tb's, only using energy when I have to
and then big tb, repeat
so in each tb window you want to get like 3+ envenoms off right?
yeah
the dream is mut critting for 4 every time
when it happens you get a little wet spot on your pant leg
lmao call it a wet dream. Awesome so when you say you only use energy when you have to does that mean like only for refreshing dots or to stop yourself from capping until TB comes off cooldown?
both
I like to refresh dots couple seconds before tb
and then sit there pooling at 4-5cp, tb into envenom
I saw some method people using tb on cd no matter energy or cp
I like it better that way
just play around those cd's
okay good to know. is it a big deal if you use tb at max combo points?
its the envenom damage up that makes tb good
the 1cp is technically not optimal to overcap
but in the grand scheme of things w/e
I'd rather get off tb on cd than worry about the combo point
okay, thanks a lot for the help ๐
what traits do you guys think would be best this week in m+
2xeb 3xttk 1xss/3xeb 2xttk 1xss will probs be the general recommendation
