nvm

#

Did you accidently take multi target?

#

No essence gives u 13k dps inc ob st

#

On*

brisk frost
#

had some wrong settings loaded from last time i was simming, false call ^^

crystal vessel
#

Mut is better with DD traits on ❤ targets? And SS/EB on >3?

#

Greater than 3

#

Less than 3

faint canopy
#

Btw, anyone has simmed a high ilvl punchcard trinket? is it any good or just trash so far?

crystal vessel
#

I think that depends on the cards you get.

spice surge
#

@crystal vessel 3 if no traits, 2 if eb, 4/5 with dd

zinc zephyr
#

!essence

prisma monolithBOT
crystal vessel
#

So 4/5 with 3 DD traits.

#

Use mut.

rigid mango
#

You fok at 4/5 if you have dd, yes

#

Fok at 2 if you have eb

#

Fok at 3 if neither

ripe nimbus
#

U mut at 4/5 if u have DD traits

#

Will toxic knife be viable for m+ in season 3?

#

I see for single target some people are simming MA?

real bay
#

wdym

#

toxic blade is p much what everyone use

rigid mango
#

@woven summit why wouldn't tb be viable for m+?

#

And yes, MA is better than sub if you don't have SS traits, and sub + ss is better for cleave

knotty rain
#

What stats will it take in the next raid?

rigid mango
#

Hm?

lone junco
#

@knotty rain you looking for future stat weights?

woven summit
#

I see. Thanks. I just see exsanguinate sims better for keys than TB for 1.4%

#

According to the guide

rigid mango
#

I wouldn't go off of that

woven summit
#

Yeah guess both are strong depending on prefference

rigid mango
#

Nah, I don't think exsangs getting picked

#

Unless it's really good for the new affix, but I don't see tb getting any worse thanks to it

#

Unless doing 3ss last boss cheese in kr, I don't really see a reason to pick exsang

woven summit
#

Glad to hear got used to TB would love to do well in future

rigid mango
#

Tb also scales better

strange python
#

damn 3rd belt with a socket i procced but being the wrong effect

wise shore
#

why is the azerite in EP so bad

modest violet
#

memory of lucid dreams has been nice

white basalt
#

Yea it makes the spec more fun

grim canopy
#

For m+ should I use that aoe essence from rep or lucid or blood

rigid mango
#

Blood's a pretty safe bet

fallen geode
#

Anyone having stealth issues

white basalt
#

Ya juice its prob cause of your follower

#

Could also be the lucid dream minor trait bringing you out of stealth when you sap or something

azure zenith
#

I had it all the time in BGs the last few days

#

Incredibly annoying

#

No debuff on me, dozens of yards to the next enemy and stealth randomly fails

inner tree
white basalt
#

How the hell does that even work

rigid mango
#

Trinket seems meh

#

If it's simming correctly

#

But idk

tribal marlin
#

is it 250stats overall or 250 of each stat

#

and what is uptime

#

is all the question

white basalt
#

anyone have a theoritical BIS list for EP yet?

rigid mango
#

EP?

knotty rain
#

@lone junco yes for azshara raid 😄

rigid mango
#

Oh new raid

#

Unless az changes dramastically which it doesn't seem like

white basalt
#

huh?

#

damn, got socketed benthic but its vers/haste legs with +speed bonus :/

lone junco
#

@knotty rain you know im just gonna say, sim yo self. right?

#

once the major/minor stuff is ready.

#

Still gonna be a Haste Mastery/Crit blend. grats.

tropic ocean
#

250 of each stat

#

I guess not lol

sand granite
#

These are bis boots right?

tawny shell
#

I’d assume so after upgradeingg to 425

#

Even now if your boots are trash

vernal fern
#

how did you get them ? just random rolling ?

sacred hatch
#

does memory of lucid dreams shares gcd with vendetta?

sand granite
#

Yea rolled from vendor

#

Had to buy like 6 before hitting

tawny shell
#

Is it worth rolling like that? Are pearls worth anything else?

tribal marlin
#

you need 75 pearl to achieve the quest

tawny shell
#

Yeah I been done that 75 thing

tribal marlin
#

in order to craft 425 and 440 gear with proffession

tawny shell
#

Ahhh okay. so yeah def saving pearls

vernal fern
#

but this is useless if you dont a gear profession right?

#

have*

sacred hatch
#

memory or crucible?

marble hemlock
#

looks like lucid can proc twice on the same mutilate 😄

cobalt gyro
#

LMAO AMAZING

#

also

#

tikes that TD deplete

#

it feels real tight now

marble hemlock
#

we didnt finish

#

@vestal wren you know whether mutilate returning energy twice with lucid is already modeled correctly in simc?

tame cobalt
#

!essrank

prisma monolithBOT
amber trench
#

did you have the major up during that proc?

#

cause the major doubles the refund also

marble hemlock
#

oh ye

#

nvm then, sorry for ping :p

#

gonna check real quick

#

hmm....

flint jetty
#

Would the 100% increased energy gen increase the gains from minor proc?

marble hemlock
#

nvm

#

that was VV

#

not lucid 😄

amber trench
#

lucid major 100% doubles refund of minor

dim sigil
#

Do I use FoK on 2 targets with 3x echoing blades?

opaque tree
#

Yes bjorg

dim sigil
#

Thanks @opaque tree, very cool!

marble hemlock
#

but yeah, youre right @amber trench

#

the funny part is that it calculates the energy that should be refunded by the minor, then rounds up

#

and then doubles it if the major is active

#

so you get 36energy return on a 35energy fok

amber trench
#

silly game, can't do math

#

yeah i noticed it when i was raiding on weds, only ever overcapped energy when it procced during the major

marble hemlock
#

i mean it also doubles vim energy regains

amber trench
#

well yeah it does that too

marble hemlock
#

and venom-rush, id assume

amber trench
#

most likely

marble hemlock
#

probably vendetta/NP gains as well

amber trench
#

np i'm not sure about

#

should test that

#

i don't think it affects np

#

13.2 base energy regen popped lucid and vend on a dummy and only went to 28.4

#

which is just 13.2*2+2

marble hemlock
#

hm, doesnt show np/vendetta energy gains at all in logs

#

just vv/lucid :<

amber trench
#

i think that might be counted into the passive regen category in logs

#

and just doesn't seperate

#

i'll check mine

marble hemlock
#

that is without bleeds up, just np+vendetta+lucid, and started on as low energy as possible

#

125energy from minor

#

thats still 425energy over a 10sec window

#

unaccounted for

amber trench
#

hmm

marble hemlock
#

260 are passive, 60 vendetta 20np

#

wouldnt be enough

amber trench
#

how many minor rpocs?

marble hemlock
#

already counted them out

#

total cost over 10sec is 550 energy, 125 are refunded from minor

#

425 left, 260 are from passive regen (13/sec but major up, so 26/sec)

#

leaves ~165energy to be gotten from somewhere

amber trench
#

shouldn't it be 250energy from minor?

marble hemlock
#

100 actually, first one was before i used lucid

balmy kraken
#

!essence

prisma monolithBOT
marble hemlock
amber trench
#

ok

marble hemlock
#

so yeah, assuming i started with ~40energy after dumping energy, then using 2GCDs on other stuff

#

i was able to use 550 energy on mutilates, -40 for the start, -100 for lucid minor, -260 passive regen, leaves us with ~150 to be gained from np+vendetta on use

#

which is only 80 if lucid major doesnt affect it, 160 if it does

amber trench
#

most likely it does affect vendetta regen

#

wish logs would show a chart for current energy

lament roost
#

is assassination or outlaw better for 8.2 mythic+?

amber trench
#

passive regen should be 312 btw lucid is 12 secs long

#

at r1

crisp steppe
#

wait untill the new m+ season started and we have unlocked some essences and try again @lament roost

marble hemlock
#

hmm

#

hmm, i was mostly looking at the energy generated within the 10sec window of vendetta+mutilates

#

would be much nicer if we could just track vendetta/np energy gains via logs :<

amber trench
#

yah, well when you used the last mutilate were you close to 0 energy?

marble hemlock
#

ye

amber trench
#

if you were then you have to factor in the eneryg gained from the 2 gcds lost

marble hemlock
#

i did, thats why i started with ~40 energy

#

i legit waited until i could spam another muti

#

and then popped lucid+vend

#

same returns from minor as before, 100energy

#

no op

#

would be nice if we could somewhat confirm whether it affects np/vendetta energy gains or not :<

#

but i would assume it does

amber trench
#

yeah it would, i'm leaning towards it affecting vendetta at the least

marble hemlock
#

yeah

#

can make a screen in 2min, the char sheet even shows

tribal marlin
#

what are you discussing for ?

amber trench
#

lucid dreams interaction with ALL energy sources

marble hemlock
#

wasnt sure if lucid affects all types of energy gains

tribal marlin
#

oh

marble hemlock
tribal marlin
#

It double energy recover from Ruthless strike too

marble hemlock
#

goes down to 28 after initial vendetta energy fades, 26 when you cancel NP

mental obsidian
#

I know it s too early but how likely are we to use blood of the enemy? I wanna know if I ll grind it on my rogue or dk, cause both need it, just wanna know which one will likely use it most

tribal marlin
#

I mean the passiv from sub rogue. So you get 60 energy after a finisher insteed of 30

amber trench
#

i see

#

good chance it affects np too then

opaque tree
#

Would this push Lucid’s dps higher than what it sims for?

marble hemlock
#

guess we're back to thistletea and renatakis charm of trickery, pop it during lucid, get twice the energy!

amber trench
#

depends on if sims account for it or not

#

i don't have essence sims enabled so you can check to see how much energy is refunded for vendetta proc and np proc

#

i think sims track that in the detailed log

tribal marlin
#

It's near than impossible to not being gcd locked during lucid dream active anyway

opaque tree
#

If it’s already close to the number one contender for major spot, and it wasn’t accounted for, it might push it to the top

marble hemlock
#

atleast for assa it doesnt really matter anyway, since you dont wanna pop lucid with vendetta due to massive overcap issues

tribal marlin
#

And assa is the only spec that "maybe" can not overcap energy during lucid

nocturne gate
#

when do u pop lucid ?

amber trench
#

dh and balance druids overcap as much as sin does during lucid

opaque tree
#

When you are under 50 energy as of right now

tribal marlin
#

whenever you can't do any other global becase you don't have enough energy

nocturne gate
#

so at least inside of vendetta but not at start

amber trench
#

good rule of thumb is first time you go under 50 energy without a minor proc right after

tribal marlin
#

I encounter 2 issue doing some research on that. When I tested Lucid major on PTR I was basically pop'ing it right after the last global in TB and it was the same time I started being starved.

marble hemlock
#

i like that fok gives 36 energy instead of 35 tho

#

1 free energy POG

amber trench
#

yeah garrote gives 46

tribal marlin
#

But it was without BL

#

if you add BL in the picture, you basically don't need Lucid dream, but if you then use it AFTER bl, it will be desync off your vendetta and you wont be able to use it during subsequent vendetta

#

so I need to do some other testes to see

dark crag
#

Your raid use bl when you have vendetta ready?

tribal marlin
#

Well at least sims use BL on pull

#

so yes basically synced with vendetta

mental obsidian
#

I know it s too early but how likely are we to use blood of the enemy? I wanna know if I ll grind it on my rogue

tribal marlin
#

and anyway yes I most of the time will have BL ready when BL is popd

dark crag
#

Just 50% extra reg and a neat side effect like mastery or whatever would be nice

#

is it true that the benthic equipment can have slot randomly?

white basalt
#

YES

#

true

#

i got a slot but its on the shitty pants with speed buff and vers ;/

mental obsidian
#

probably not very accurate essence simms yet right?

hybrid laurel
#

@white basalt oh that's nice then. I think ill farm the waist

#

for the extra damage in raid

opaque tree
#

I wish my pants in real life gave me a speed boost.

untold current
#

So the energy is being refunded double from the major and minor lucid?

#

Or minor I should say

civic palm
#

yes

untold current
#

This is probably a silly question but is ancient flame the minor for Crucible?

#

Or just part of the major

#

Bc my understanding is that we dont have access to the minors until 55

nimble tartan
#

If you slot in a major essence in a major slot you also gain the minor effect

grim canopy
#

so that one essnce that does 300% more dmg if it crits, is that gonna be decent with MA?

civic palm
#

Probably not.

#

Not with normal levels of crit anyway.

spice surge
#

It almost certainly doesnt work with MA

#

Since the other essences dont

grim canopy
#

damn

spice surge
#

MA is only for rogue abilties and procs

civic palm
#

Yeah MA doesn't actually increase your crit rating.

spice surge
#

Doesnt work on trinkets/azerite

"For your weapon enchants you should use one Force Multiplier and one secondary stat enchant that your scale factors says is highest. A likely pair for single target would be Force Multiplier and Quick Navigation."

Thank you 😃

gl getting the traits for it though

white basalt
#

what traits?

tribal marlin
#

as usual a combination of SS, EB and TTK

opal meadow
#

So ive tried searching

#

anyone have any ideas on benthic gear to roll for sockets?

#

Belt seems good (with aoe damage)

#

but like i dont have any sims just from looking at it

toxic minnow
#

Where does the on-use ability of Lucid Dreams fit into our opener?

opal meadow
#

after you're energy starved

onyx rock
#

Is it just me or is SS on Singletarget coming back ? Sims should be fine now and 3xSS sims almost the same as the typical Double Dose Build. 33 / 32k. Could be the crazy amount of haste with 8x the new Sockets ?

opal meadow
#

Just more haste in general from higher ilvl too

onyx rock
#

Itemlevel is the same as in 8.1.5

opal meadow
#

Oh

onyx rock
#

Everything is the same beside Essences... thats why its weird. Before the Patch the 3xSS Build was way behind but its catching up strong now

#

I am at 421 Itemlvl

#

And my haste is 28% unbuffed now with the new Sockets

opal meadow
#

421? where are you getting ilvl from

onyx rock
#

Well just raiding and this Tier i was very lucky with titanforged

opal meadow
#

ah

onyx rock
#

Its not that unusual tbh

#

Also necklvl is giving some itemlvl

#

Well... 1 Point

opal meadow
#

I'm at 416 rn

#

only have two 400 items but they have sockets

cobalt pelican
#

post the sim

onyx rock
#

Cant... will do it later. My pc is off now

#

You have an idea why ss is simming so good ?

cobalt pelican
#

1k is pretty high variance if i'm interpretting what you said right

drifting cloud
#

I mean you said 33 / 32

#

so its 1k lower? thats about normal

cobalt pelican
#

throughout dazaralor the sims were only like 400dps difference for me as nelf

onyx rock
#

Yes. But (for me) the difference was like 27/29k before the Patch

#

Maybe i am dumb... or i need sleep

#

Or both

cobalt pelican
#

there hasn't been any changes that have changed the difference that much, so unless you had worse ss pieces (op missing, whatever) i doubt the difference was 2k

onyx rock
#

Its the same gear beside new sockets/enchants for weapon and rings and Kibul Trinket insted of Dice

cobalt pelican
#

only thing i can think of is you're talking like 27.9 and 29.1 and the difference seemed bigger in your head

#

if i rerun any of my old sims from dazaralor as belf the difference is about 1kish

#

and that's mostly because my ss chestpiece is the reverant whatever

onyx rock
#

I would love to pull out some old sims but yeah they are gone i guess

cobalt pelican
#

this is an old one

#

difference is a bit bigger here

onyx rock
#

I see

opal meadow
#

Socketing in 5 new gems gave me 2% more haste, that does seem impactful

onyx rock
#

Maybe i am making things up but i would swear it was 2kisch for me

tribal marlin
#

for me DDx3/NPx2/TCx1 sim 800 higher than 3xSS/2xNP/1xDD

onyx rock
#

Ok so i guess my sims are fine

#

800 dosnt seems high at this kind of numbers

#

Its fun to play imo. I guess i will try it at mekka/wall/jaina next reset

cobalt pelican
#

what major were you simming with

opal meadow
#

mekka will yield rng results

onyx rock
#

Good Point. Double Dose Gear tells me to take Energy Essenc and SS Gear want the Flame Essence

cobalt pelican
#

i'd expect dd to gain % on ss when you can get lucid as a minor

onyx rock
#

Yeah i guess

opal meadow
#

what's lucids minor ppm?

onyx rock
#

Will see in 2 days or so... need 70% for 55 now

opal meadow
#

you 54?

onyx rock
#

Yeah since an hour ago

opal meadow
#

damn

#

are you grinding islands?

onyx rock
#

I did one island grind for 8 hours

opal meadow
#

but why

onyx rock
#

But i saved 18 Paragon things (6 of them dosnt count)

#

that's smart

I want 55 though so i'm grinding shit out now 😦

Our maintank is at 46 now

#

So...

cobalt pelican
#

46 is pretty impressive if he didn't reroll

#

props to that guy

opal meadow
#

our guild leader said we needed to get 50 by raid release

onyx rock
#

He didnt reroll

cobalt pelican
#

does 50 even do anything

you get your first major at 35 right

#

CE raiders tend to burn out and thus not doing further content untill next patch

opal meadow
cobalt pelican
#

i can understand like.. wanting people to play

#

but telling people to play is just a recipe for your guild disintergrating as the 'slightly jaded but still raiding' players leave

#

i've already given up on getting flying at all any time soon

opal meadow
#

I'm going hard for flying

cobalt pelican
#

i'm just going to try hit 55 at a semi reasonable pace and make sure my follower gets his xp daily for lucid

#

should mean i'm not too far behind in raids and i can just deal without flying since i don't go anywhere

onyx rock
#

I guess 55 is easy to get until myhtic id by just doing ap WQ's

cobalt pelican
#

doubt 65 before raid finish is going to happen

opal meadow
#

I got a item from a scrying chest thing that gave my followers 150 xp, each. so 450 in total, nice boost for lucid #2

unelss you're in like a world 5k guild

#

so once i hit 55 i'm probably just going to slowpoke around on foot while everyones flying around me

opal meadow
#

My main motivation for flying is so i can do WQs really quickly

woven summit
#

So you guys going MA for raiding or is sub still good for SS traits?

opal meadow
#

MA until i get new azerite

cobalt pelican
#

same as dazaralor basically

#

so, ss on any fight that it benefits

#

but ma baseline

woven summit
#

What traits do you use for MA? TKK, one NP and DD?

round holly
#

hey, can i ask some stupid questions about the revenholdt guide?

icy ember
#

3x dd 3x np

cobalt pelican
#

whatever sims highest, so probably just some mix of dd and np depending on what traits are available

#

and maybe ceph if there's no good raid one

woven summit
#

and 3x TKK?

cobalt pelican
#

not honestly looked into gear much

onyx rock
#

Yeah i normaly go 3xSS until Mekka and maybe conlave sometimes

cobalt pelican
#

ttk is a pretty hard avoid for raiding outside of ceph

woven summit
#

sorry but what was ceph again?

opal meadow
#

I go MA on grong, but the timing for that fight is annoying for anything imo

cobalt pelican
#

cephalohide.. jacket?

#

i don't remember the name of it

woven summit
#

lmao

onyx rock
#

I am padding on grong like mad tbh

woven summit
#

I don't remember

cobalt pelican
#

ttk dd op chest from m+

round holly
#

why does it say "Garrote when your current Garrote is below 5.4" ? isn't it better to wait until last tick?

opal meadow
#

Cephalohide jacket

cobalt pelican
#

all bleeds pandemic

#

so 30% of the duration can be added to the next one

round holly
#

wait really

cobalt pelican
#

30% of garrote d uration is 5.4

round holly
#

and there is snapshooting back as well?

cobalt pelican
#

no

round holly
#

"Note: You do not want to overwrite a Nightstalker empowered Rupture or Garrote until it has expired."

woven summit
#

Oh the item

cobalt pelican
#

that is correct

#

but it's not snapshotting

woven summit
#

I thought Cephalonide Jacket was a trait lol

#

got confused there

#

So I see that item has dagger in the back

icy ember
#

nightstalker, that hasn't been used since legion

cobalt pelican
#

like, no stats are taken into account when this happens

round holly
#

yeah yeah

#

its soft snapshooting or smthg

icy ember
#

idk what snapshooting is

round holly
#

but it take nightstalker into account for the whole dot

cobalt pelican
#

yeah

round holly
#

it's the only thing that does it right?

#

no more trinket and stuff

cobalt pelican
#

any empowerments are applied, and if a garrote is empowered by either talent don't renew till 0

#

outside of that you can do whatever

#

you don't have to worry about trinket/procs/anything really

round holly
#

@icy ember before DoT were keeping the stat you had when you applied them, so you didn't want to erase a full trinket proc DoT

#

some class could abuse that hard

#

@cobalt pelican yeah ok i guess it's the same for subterfuge

cobalt pelican
#

yes

round holly
#

kk

#

ty

cobalt pelican
#

and shrouded

round holly
#

haven't learned that spell yet :3

cobalt pelican
#

any empowerment on your garrote = let it tick out

#

no empowerment = 5.4

round holly
#

5.4 or below right?

#

just not before

opal meadow
#

If your garrote was cast in stealth

#

let it tick to 0

#

before casting garrote again

cobalt pelican
#

yeah any time below is fine

round holly
#

ok thanks boyz

woven summit
#

If you use garrote before the empowered garrote runs out you lose some seconds on it

#

right?

peak quarry
#

Should I use leeching poison in open world content? When I am doing it as Asasination I seem to get killed more easily than outlaw.

woven summit
#

What if your non empowered garrote is still running, can you use empowered garrote over it if vanish is on CD?

signal ice
#

yes

round holly
#

so you get a pandemic buffed garot?

signal ice
#

yes

cobalt pelican
#

leeching is pretty helpful

#

and yes that's how it works

onyx rock
#

I take leeching in Islands. Very nice

round holly
#

when was pandemic added? legion?

strange python
#

guys where are the waves lmao

#

ik it's the wrong channel but my god

#

found them

dark crag
#

You get no pandemic empowered garrote if you overwrite it with a normal one

#

Pandemic is just 30% of the duration of your new cast added on top

#

But your current new cast count

#

Trinket buffs are dynamic

fierce yew
#

Sorry if I'm a bit OOTL here but are we using the Kimbul trinket over Harlan's at the moment?

dark crag
opal meadow
#

We using font of power now :^)

tropic ocean
#

Kimbul is opie op rn

opal meadow
#

why?

fierce yew
#

Ye my sim still sais my 400 socketed Harlan is worth more than 415 socketed Kimbul that's why I ask

opal meadow
#

then use the harlan

tropic ocean
#

Not sure sim is updated

#

Kimbul just got a huge buff

cobalt pelican
#

the sim is where most of the 'kimbul busted' stuff came from but it's quoting way higher damage than in the game

#

so either the sim updated weird, the change didn't get pushed to live, or something inbetween is fucky

tropic ocean
#

Idk in fh 14 first boss it did 4.x% of my dmg yesterday

white basalt
#

I'm using a 380 spyglass and have given away a 425 kimbuls...

tropic ocean
#

yeah

#

about 4.1% on dummy as well

#

with 415ilvl

#

2min

rustic heath
#

Do you pool on elaborate planning or envenom buff?

cobalt pelican
#

avg dmg per proc?

tropic ocean
#

1,624

#

thats with st gear so only 29% mastery

#

I guess with the new secondary stat scaling it will do a lot more when having 40%+mastery in m+

unborn gate
#

Is the alchemy trinket worth crafting?

scenic torrent
#

how bad is versality, got item from pearl but with socket.

daring atlas
#

So look at stat weights

#

I feel like raidbots is a little off right noww

shy axle
#

mastery might gain due to essencer while haste might lose some value

#

could be possible

daring atlas
#

ahhhh

#

I am using lucid dreams

#

that is probably why

#

great callout

#

@shy axle Can confirm it is the essence chosen. Thanks again!

strange python
#

does anyone have a 8.2 bis list already

#

azerite pieces seem really bad for rogues in EP

daring atlas
#

it looks like memory of lucid is top right now by like ~1.2k (At least on my SIM).

#

Others getting same thing*?

tropic ocean
#

@strange python yes they do look pretty bad

#

the only decent piece is helmet from za'quul

#

but that I guess depends on how many allies have the loyal trait

#

if 8 ppl use it, it should be very veryb is

valid spoke
#

!essences

prisma monolithBOT
strange python
#

Yeah @tropic ocean I'm sure it will be mandatory for people which makes are options much more appealing

#

Especially when the non-rogue classes keep dying

lethal seal
#

are you guys sure about that kimbul thing? looking up 8.2 logs and its about 1,5% overall dmg

hidden plinth
#

whats your opinion to the set rings from mecha?

tawny nimbus
#

how do i find out my stat weights please?

rigid mango
#

Just sim using top geae instead

tawny nimbus
#

I assume punch cards are consumed when you add a new one? How do I sim without wasting the card? :/

rigid mango
#

GWcmeisterPeepoShrug the trinket looks very meh for sin anyways

cobalt pelican
#

it just uses

#

gemid's

tawny nimbus
#

!trinkets

cobalt pelican
#

so like in your simc string change trinket2=,id=167555,gem_id=167556/168752,bonus_id=1476,context=11 to whatever two card ids you want

#

the ids are the same as wowhead so

#

if it's forged you'd need to change the context but eh

tropic ocean
#

@lethal seal idk if details is broken or not but ingame it performs very well

rigid mango
#

Yes, every damaging trink got buffed by ~40%

icy ember
#

yo what about the second minor slot you unlock at 55? what power are we going for? another lucid dream? idk

cobalt pelican
#

condensed major lucid minor, blood major lucid minor, no idea really yet but those seem to be the general ideas

rigid mango
#

Optimally, swapping lucid major for life force and taking lucid minor

cobalt pelican
#

set in stone sims will be up long before you hit that point

rigid mango
#

Seeing as how that's currently simming the highest

tropic ocean
#

@lethal seal still more than decent

rigid mango
#

But at the same time life doesn't scale well

#

So we'll have to see

icy ember
#

idk someone in this discord said that you could take 2x lucid dream

#

if thats wrong correct me now 4Shrug

rigid mango
#

You can't take 2x (?)

cobalt pelican
#

you can't

real bay
#

lol

cobalt pelican
#

and the lucid major is pretty insignificant

real bay
#

thatd be so stupid

nimble tartan
#

lucid major is strong as heck bro

rigid mango
#

Not really

#

There're better

tropic ocean
#

Not anymore when you got access to raid gear and all r3

cobalt pelican
#

there's a reason lucid is getting moved to minor as soon as you possibly can

rigid mango
#

Yeah

#

I mean I've only seen sims w r3 stuff

nimble tartan
#

lucid main only bro

#

see u in 2020

cobalt pelican
#

i feel like a lot of poeple don't understand that you get the minor with the major or something

rigid mango
#

But prettt sure life maj + luc min is really foos

cobalt pelican
#

2020/170 energy

nimble tartan
#

bro i never waste energy

#

we out here gaining ENERGY

#

i think though itll be fight dependent i think lucid energy a lot more versatile off the bat

#

lower cd

#

lets u play around burst alot more

#

empowers our strengths

cobalt pelican
#

but that's the minor

nimble tartan
#

the golem big dude good too

#

naw the najor

cobalt pelican
#

no, that's the minor

nimble tartan
#

naw dude button

cobalt pelican
#

NO

rigid mango
#

The major doesn't give as much as other majors

cobalt pelican
#

AHHHHHHHHHH

wide hedge
#

the minor is more worth than the major since there are stronger majors, but only worse minors

rigid mango
#

You can go blood if you want burst

nimble tartan
#

i think its hot

#

i think blood not good

rigid mango
#

Blood seems aight

nimble tartan
#

its good on short fghts on farm

#

where i saw lucid was like not a good button

#

but lucid feels real good on those long ass fights

#

i know from the early initial sims the golem a little stronger than lucid but like i said i think lucid gives u a lot more flex

dense minnow
#

the problem with lucid major is that you dont need it while vendeta is up, and to boost 1 TB seems meh at best

solid nova
#

You don't use it with vendetta

nimble tartan
#

yea its fine u just press it when u need energy

#

feels fine to hold it

solid nova
#

Sub 50 energy seems decent

nimble tartan
#

like legit on uunat i felt like i had infinite energy

icy ember
#

ye AFAIK you only use it when you can no longer perform your rotation, outside of vendetta

nimble tartan
#

i was just like filling every global

#

SPEEDRACER

dense minnow
#

Minor takes care of your energy by itself

nimble tartan
#

i mean it helps forsure

dense minnow
#

why would you rank major so high then =?

nimble tartan
#

but u cant deny the power of all that energy from the major

cobalt pelican
#

i just did

icy ember
#

ye you cant deny the energy regen

nimble tartan
#

idk i gotta get my hands on the raid one and test it out but in my head i value the flex of the sick nasty energy regen think it empowers what makes us good

cobalt pelican
#

it's not a significant amount of energy compared to what the other majors do

nimble tartan
#

its a lot

cobalt pelican
#

it's really not

dense minnow
#

well i guess ppl will just disagree

nimble tartan
#

also im more thinking of long fights like in the 8-10 minute range

#

i cba for early fights

icy ember
real bay
#

why wouldnt you use it during vendetta, im only high on energy for like the first 5sec

#

not like you gte 9999 energy

nimble tartan
#

u do get a shitload of energy

real bay
#

no

#

40+ 60 over 20s

#

with NP

nimble tartan
#

i feel FAST BRO

#

u aint gotta ride the wave with me B)

solid nova
#

It's used when you're low on energy, that can also be within vendetta

#

But mindlessly just using it with vendetta isn't how it works

nimble tartan
#

yeah legit dont worry about holding it

icy ember
#

maybe toward the end of vendetta, when you no longer generate energy

nimble tartan
#

i was holdin it for like 10 seconds here and there

#

just cause its how it worked out

dense minnow
#

with minor Lucid you dont miss globals in Vendetta

nimble tartan
#

yeah the minor is strong

dense minnow
#

so most of the time you would waste it

real bay
#

not always lucky tbh to get refunds

dense minnow
#

i guess my PoV is from Troll anyway, also depends on your haste values

nimble tartan
#

i like never used them together basically

#

its more like a supplement to my entire rotation

#

idk it feels hot

#

i think as long as we can mantain triple double dose and an envenom trait in azerites its sick just lets u cast hella

#

gettin #value

cobalt pelican
#

well yea having energy feels good

#

that's always the case

tropic ocean
#

Wat is this argument

#

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

nimble tartan
#

i dont think theres an argument

#

im just saying i luv dis major

#

and why i think its good !

tropic ocean
#

@real bay how? I start starving energy only during vendetta for last 20-25% 🤔

nimble tartan
#

imagine an add about to come out bro and u gotta burst it down and ur golem still has 1 minute on it and im out here throwin HAYMAKERS AT IT with my 2 minute cd

but bro

vers doesnt give energy

#

what if y ou got MAD haste though like

#

and then you could swap your energy button for

haste means more energy from pressing the button dude..

aint nothin wrong with MORE ENERGY

dam that rank 3 minor from that life force is p good

gonna be nice to have that slotted in my minor slot

you definitely start to starve at 10s left on Vendetta unless lucky

#

just go to a dummy

crisp steppe

anyone try pocked sized computation device with subroutine optimizer and critvers yet?

marble hemlock
#

it doesnt proc often enough, if it happens twice during a bossfight and you lose all haste/mastery thats gonna suck

#

haste/mastery one might be interesting tho

crisp steppe
#

how about for m+ though. for AoE

marble hemlock
#

well yeah, its gonna be a slight dps increase for pure aoe if you just keep spamming fok

#

but i doubt its worth the lose if it procs in inopportune times

#

like on bosses or on prio-damage situations

#

losing all your mastery is a significant dps loss in these situations

#

and i doubt a bit more aoe is gonna make up for that timeloss

crisp steppe
#

aight

tawny nimbus
#

Ravenholdt guide says Haste > Crit > Mastery, but Raidbots says my weights are Mastery > Haste?

marble hemlock
#

ravenholdt is just a general guideline, raidbots with your specific gear and traits is going to be more accurate

tawny nimbus
#

ok gotcha, ty!

deft nymph
#

wouldn't really bother with simming stat weights though

#

unless you just want something to plug into pawn to have it, topgear all day

woven summit
#

Pawn has stat weights as well

deft nymph
#

pawn is just a tool to show your stat weights

#

unless you mean using the default ones, cause you reeeeaallly don't wanna do that

woven summit
#

How to change default ones?

#

To being more specific

deft nymph
#

well you can sim with raidbots and it will give you a string that you can import in pawn in the settings

#

but again, don't spend too much time bothering with stat weights

woven summit
#

I see, I'll check that out

deft nymph
#

just sim topgear

woven summit
#

Good sugestion

#

And aim for bis yeah

deft nymph
#

if you change your gemming/enchants based on weights, it's fairly likely that your weights will flip around

woven summit
#

True

deft nymph
#

so your weights say crit is best, you regem everything crit, how haste is best (random example)

woven summit
#

Yeah

It shifts constantly

It's good until it's not

woven summit

and see whether i have some gear to use

rigid mango

Just sim your pieces

woven summit
#

yeah will do

#

I should not listen to pawn anymore on what gear is upgrade or not

rigid mango

No.

#

Stat weights are inacurrate

And change too often

Simming is the superior option

woven summit

does simc work correctly?

I see it was last updated May 28

A tool is only as good as its user

woven summit

Where do you update it again?

cosmic pier

you have to update your stat weights every time you change a piece of gear, even then only use them as a rough gauge

#

/ pawn

woven summit
#

ok i'm there in option

tropic ocean
#

You copy it from raidbots

cosmic pier
#

then look for an impoort button

tropic ocean
#

Then add it in options on pawn

#

Theres an option to choose your own input string

cosmic pier
#

scale tab > import, then paste in the string from raidbots

woven summit

found it

cosmic pier

then when you wanna update the string, just paste from raidbots again and it will overwrite your old one

woven summit

what do you import btw?

ah from raidbots

it says pawn doesn't understand that tag

But generally 3 dd is the start of a very good set up

SS can be better at very short fights

Double dose is better in raid for long fight

Dd is better in general

Ss is better for cleave fights where you get 2-3 garrotes off per vanish
