well I was, it's just the best build
435 Cephalohide just sorta forces me to take it
Aye
zine a who are you in the raiding scene out of curiosity cause jesus you never stop typing here
like you live i this discord
I don't raid anything special
We're like, low 300's or smth atm
I'm just very active and have learnt a lot from talking to all the really good players in here
Imagine being a good player
ah im sitll in that process only recently picked up assas again since legion
Imagine vel, imagine.
I bet @nimble tartan imagines all the time
mained outlaw nutil now
So if you've just picked it up, why say stuff like "ss is a bad pve trait" which is straight up not true?
casue of blood mallet
Ah, shoulda known.
says its rank 10
i know it goes up in multi target fights but changig azerite traits on a boss to boss basis takes its toll
Realistically, it's very close to the top tier ones
Not calling it top tier would be, well, incorrect
^
im 1000k in pvp who wanna pvp
Its main use is like I said, cleave
i only pvp with rank 4 blood gang members
so shrouded is still worth in ST?
and rank 1 homies like neilyo
On raw ST?
Not really, it's not as good as the aforementioned traits
It does more damage when you hit 2+
there's like not even 10 realistically obtainable traits so
Every vanish cycle
i'm guessing the other traits above it are like
traits you can't even get
those goofy ass pvp piece traits
5 of them are just shite
grants 7 versatility if you dab on a corpse
or w/ever
rank 5
Since two are proc based, one could argue rank 3
Saying that it's a bad trait is mad 😄
i really hope i dont get blighted tribe on wednesday again

is 3 x DD always the way to go then for raw ST with atleast 1 nothing personal
Yeah
Optimally, 3 dd 1 np bbi ttk 3 op
Which is only obtainable with zaq helm + goraks + cephalohide
atm i am simming an extra 300dps if i take my outlaw gear and use it for ass
take my best outlaw AP peices i mean
Yeah I mean
dude
I'd base it on
i dont like the new opener
How am I supposed to r1 if I don't have 445 gorak's cmon zine
is shroud suffocation better for mythic plus even though double dose sims higher?
DD is never good for m+
dd sucks in m+
It's like, actually HORRENDOUS
SS is a need as a 1 of, for sure, but after that it's down to setup
gotcha. just ran the sim was all and it showing a 1k increase with DD instead
I mean if you dont usually run 19s and shit in current season and wanna do a very high key for the extra residuum you can
anyone know the pandemic timers for garrote and rupture trying to sync it up with WA glow
5.4 garrote, 7.9 rup. right?
yea i still need to kill zaq in a pug laster today hopefully iget helmet. waht boss drops cero
Its a static % google it 4head
20*1.3 - 20
No boss drops it
someone run the numbers
Get lucky in the residuum casino
just get loyal to the end and force your sim to accept mastery as a 5dps weight
loyal chest is pretty decent tbh
I don't understand how I can be 431ilvl with 3 420 benthic pieces and still only sim 38.5k
that's actually terrible
I think most raids run at least 5, so it should be good
so whats better to roll you reckon shoulders or chest. what has the higher chance of not giving absolute garbage
^
I mean I'm 90% certain it's because no coral or font
just run a droptimizer
wtf
327k
send help
if you're only 38.5 or something it's not just no font
Wth are you doing with ur rerolls
you lack holes

Its not new to me
if it wasn't worth it nobody would do it
got HC syco + hc inexorable both HC
but for ass im doing more dmg with 435 honorbound helmet - mestrahs mythic + cepha mythic 10 @ 420
only sockets are the benthic pieces so yeah
i mean whats the difference
every socket I've puled from m+ has been a benthic slot
between normal and new
2 mutilates in the ma window
You just open with mut instead
ok got chosen for the haste buff phase on za'qul, can i pop vendetta on pull?
do the cds align with those phases?
Fake news
omfg that is disgusting if thats real
Who the fuck spends 600k gold on a reroll
but it was at beginning of expansion
my screen is sadly mine
i fucked up and i couldnt go back
we killed bosses too fast
to let it reset
5th boss fucked it up
Didn't methodjosh needed a personal hotfix for his reforge cost during bod because it was over goldcap?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/kyCPnfx3t34kECnVeK11e9
look at this shit man
@vital haven i simmed myself then followed the new opener and did the exact same dmg as my sim
wat the fuck is that
on a trianing dummy - 0 buffs
Your trinkets

You've also "only" got 4 sockets
so
Hard to sim much higher without them + new aze + trinkets
pretty sure coral alone is like 2k dps
rings without socket
already the first big yikes
Rings without sockets fucking hurt
just shit to be that high ilvl and sim that shit
No OPs
also when you said like
I mean, that's not what the sim says
benthic i didn't think you meant neris LOL
94 flat mastery isnt that bad
gutripper being worse
now I've gotta check my helm wtf
Look what you're doijng to me
are people jsut stacking mastery. i ahve si8mmed myself with differerent gem set ups and enchants. the difference in sim is like 300dps
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/3JRqUpF2JEerXzfYcTAcsT imagine seeing this going to gamble and getting blighted tribe
how do these numbers keep slipping into your sentences
People stack whatever works best
cya on weds when you're a certified member of blighted tribe gang
no
like me
spymasters is actually ahead of ceph in my current gear

which is rather unsettling
@cobalt pelican caus ei fat finger when i type fast
but i COULD be simming that much
if i was a little lucky
Time for a vel vs saryero epeen match
and im going to sim that much on wednesday because im gonna get it that time
coral and a 450 dagger 

also r3 raid essence then
Could you share some of the love
How big of an upgrade is it for you?
same question for vel
idk i think its pretty big
Do you have blood 3
although I'm 99% sure I already asked
Heck.
hacker..
It's not as huge as thought
Just kill court by tonight
need hc clear only
i didnt even kill radiance
not simming 39k FeelsBadMan
damn its like 1k almost
Wait what
Jesus fuck
it'll probably be a little more when you get to run your 8 hour long gem sim
I need to look into what's causing people to sim waaaaaay higher w it
and get to go back to haste
42k andy : /
fml my sims compared too you lot makes me think my gears shite
i guess its less upgrade for him since he has bote r3
im a 39k andy vel
574 right now
please check your privilege
how is engineering helmet 445?
really good
tempted to dorp alchemy for engine
only head thats better is zaqul and swirling sands head
445 engineer helmet better then hc zaqul helmet?
yes
oh yeah ok pvp ones
but one has BATTLEFIELD FOCUS
Wait, billbo, weren't you the one comparing m+ shit earlier?
in all honesty i think he's drunk
i was yea

i burnt out pug life
Ah
fuck i need to get keystone master for r4 iris right?
yea
and we get r3 next id
So, why do you think you're able to talk about m+ shit when all you do is low keys
and you literally talked about "checking so you weren't a dude doiing just 12's"
When you're literally that
Christ.
i aint pushed M+ yet this season
i'm kinda disappointed with some of the r4 cosmetics
they all look samey and lamey
And yet you're talking score, whilst not doing anything
Mate, please.
@last zephyr 
so pretty much have to get the 445 engine helm nowadays?
not really, there's a pretty accessible alternative that's not miles behind
@Zine 
first boss head is not bad if you can get it 445 and zaqul hc is also not far behind
but engi is better than those two and fairly easy to get so its definitely worth yea

well a +15 is equal to 22 key last season right
Something along those lines, yeah
new affix is not as bad as i thought actually
trying to get these socketed boots ...
i still think i have a good dungeon knowledge in that case
It's quite nice now actually
since they changed the void lady
But, you were 1.9k?
i got to 1950 then stopped pushing
i like new affix alot actually
how can I look on logs and see how a rogue opens
for months
3 in a row 'upgrade' none with a trinket
er, socket
go casts and timelines
i thought its worse than infested
Yeah, so?
i burnt out spamming keys with pugs
nah infested was way more aids imo
the void lady cast were nuts when she buffed herself
instead of giving debuff to players
i see thanks
now its kinda fine
I can see that, and I understand that, I did the same
shadow emissary is pretty much free now
then i started doing drugs and never went back to push my score
also why do people talk about rio score.. whats even the matter
but I don't see why you came in here acting like you were high score and you know very well about high keys
m+ is pmuch just time
other ones both easy with resto aswell
when you've never stepped a foot in one.
how much do you sim for @rigid mango 

my rogue is so scuffed
well i consider 1900 to be well above average its alal botu perspectiv#
legit just a trashbin
2.4k + exceptional
You're too kind.
1900 at the end of season is achievable through having gear and doing easy weeks
@fast nacelle trashbin btw
@last zephyr I see ur daggers 👀
yeas but when i got 1900 was 4-5 months befor ethe season ended
let me at least a chest
i stopped doing key pushes full sotp
love em
@rigid mango
Billbo, just never try to compare yourself with others using metrics
It normally doesn't end well
yeah dude, gimme those 440 daggers and trade here
👀
sure will 
midwinter still on court
what do you mean by that zine that went over my bald head slight;y
yoink
I think you can figure it out given some time
im dense bro + very tired 4 am here im going ot bed in 10
i wont cause il forget too
Unlucky.
so if i can get the answer now would be great
your usually more then wiling to explain
hey all which is better variable intensity gigavolt oscillating reactor at 400 item level or razzashi tooth medallion at 415 item level
sim it 😃
so i was told simbot was off for assassination rogues is that true?
No?

Just sim it on raidbots
Who's telling you
Stick in that top gear and go
We gotta go beat em up

ok i did and it said tooth was markedly better but a rogue in my guild nnamed jayrocc said the variable intensity gigavolt oscillating reactor at 400 was better
ok thanks for the help guys
fuggin jayrocc
just ask him why he thinks raidbots is wrong and see what kind of big brain reply he hits you with

he just said something about proc times being low
? is that good?
Ok.
i honestly don't know how to tell from logs
Vel is jus trying to discredit his knowledge by showing some average logs.
the tooth is 3.5ppm on wowhead
a quick sim shows it as like
41.43% uptime
which is about right for an 8sec buff
should b fine
the wq trinnkets are pretty cool they just never live very long cause they're all ilvl capped unless you win the lottery
The actual answer is that you should SIM the options to see what is best for you personally.
Simming can be a little weird but there's nothing regarding trinkets specifically that would skew things so dramatically to make something awful.
Unless we're talking like... Cannonball Runner.
ok thanks guys
NP if there's something specific that comes up regarding the sim or whatever do bring it up.
i enjoy playing rogue but i will be the first to admit i am not the best rogue alive 😃
lol
Which trinket?
tooth medallion wq trinket thing
nmm
i was comparing 2 one from BoD and tooth
Yeah that's weird, 3.5, mmm... sounds like it's old and wasn't updated to the Xppm or Xppm + Haste or RPPM model.
Whichever it falls under, 3.5 o_ O
@cobalt pelican you're really on fire today
thanks so much for all the help 😃
😺

Assassination Essences overview: https://bit.ly/2XaZOVd
any information if FOnt of Power breaking Stealth when skilled into MA gets fixed soon? i reported the bug like 5 times now. can i do something else for it?
bote rank 3 or focusing iris as major for m+ in tyrannical? 15ish keys
I'm being forced to run Vision 
Zaq?
doubt it'll change ever
Timing with the split mechanic
ye
i want it to be wednesday already
i want to feel the disappointment of 2 weekly chests having no upgrades
and spending residuum on nothing
1 question: with ma on opener or vanish if i get 3 cp from mutilate do i rupture or envenom?
at lvl 55 what should be my major and minor essence?
You don’t have to run vision if u play outlaw vel
if you're playing blood and have ma you're 100% crit varas
if you're not playing blood generally you don't vanish env mut env for the reason you might run into the situation outlined
and prefer to vanish mut/tb in some order and then envenom
They don't want me outlaw too 
I mean if you are going down with casters it SHOULD be safe O _O
and Acro.Strikes is wonderful there.
Best pieces to roll for on with residuum to start with if we had bis last season?
I got 430 helmet from warfront hc yesterday guess which piece I still had in 430 😂
ive decided to say NO to benthic i will NOT farm anymore pearls!!
I've never seen a man more dedicated to getting sat than Omr
he's too smart
I Just need some clarification, on wowhead sin guide it says
"Ignore pandemic refresh range for normal not-empowered Garrotes, i.e. fire your second and later in-combat vanishes right away so you'll get the 30% duration bonus without having to cast another Garrote during Subterfuge."
Ive always 2x subt garrote after vanishes ( playing SS trait ST), I thought you had to do it in order to get max dmg, but does the guide say you only had to do a normal garrote and simply refresh it with Subt garrote once with vanish?
not really what you mean....when your open SS garrote falls off is the exact second you vanish and get another SS garrote up
so I have to 2x garrote after vanish?
I guess I can simplify my question, Does pandemic only add timer on duration or does it calculate dmg from previuos garrote + new garrote
Because that is the difference between me simply applying empowered garrote once, when the enemy already is bleeding from normal garrote, or me having to throw 2x empowered garrote for it to get 30% more duration due to pandemic
you understood correctly from the guide
you only need to garrote once if you already have a normal garrote up
benthic 🚫
Fuck been playing wrong all this time, I even thought having extra 3 CP from additional garrote was worth
I won't farm anymore mana pearl, i'm on your side omr
oh wait ... I already have 4 piece 425 :/

but are they all socketed though
Are you running lucid major
yep
There u go.
my weights look like yours @cobalt flame but ill be gemming haste again when i switch to rank3 condensed according to sims
yep, same as me
Is there any reason Blood of the enemy is simming so low for me in any combination of essences and stats i have eventhough everyone seems to be using it everywhere?
what rank
im always simming rank 3 essences
Link sims
its 100dps lower for me also, i dont have blood3 coz no time but considering there are some solid dps windows blood probably better considering the burst
You're comparing it to worldvein sims.
without changing gear
Worldvein is disgustingly broken for pure sim pad
well life force is going to be better just nobody has r3
If you want to pad your sims
Realistically however, it'snot
So just like undulating tides, it's just sim padding
not an actual sim worth caring about for most cases
😄
and when the rank 3 condensed is available
will it be better than bote or also only good sim but not realistic
it will be at worse equal, but might depend on fight
I don't see it really being worse unless something specifically calls for it
good to know , because i am really not going to do BGs 😄 Happy i just have to wait for reset
atm I'm unsure what I'll be running as a major for za

zaq*
Even though we're not close yet, I'm unsure what best is to run there since minor slot is screwed
what u running as minor? always lucid?
in general
yeah, lucid
i just cant see scenario where condensed + lucid will be bad choice after rank 3 condensed is available
If you've got life/bote it'll be go to minor
Further along in the tier when first bosses are jokes
even more than now
I can see blood being better if it's better kill timers
yeah i guess thats true
reasoning for not running lucid on zaqul? we are still stuck on ashvane but good to be prepared
There might be scenarios where the pet is awful behemoth cough cough
You'll be running, as weird as it sounds, vision
As a minor that is
yeah that seems reasonable
It's atrocious there
got bit confused by the question from @carmine valve
so for the second vanish infight
assuming i have a normal Garrote running
with lets say 10secs left
i only garrote once in this vanish
Yes
@rigid mango you think Inkpod is good choice for ashvane ? was trying it for few pulls eventhough it sims lower for me than font + coral and i got pretty nice stack amount there. Can imagin shield phases getting boss under 30% later can be nice for that.
cause the new buffed garrote "overwrites the dmg ticks of the last "remaining" garrote ticks of the nonbuffed ones. ok nice
You just want to get full use of the pandemic windows
but when u talk about it I'm actually a bit confused now ngl
damn 😄
When the first one is already fully pandemic'ed
I'm not sure if it's worth using a 2nd one in the same vanish window for the extra like, 2 second of garrote
ngl
never thought of it
tbh i jsut wasnt sure what pandemic exactly does, like does it only add the new garrote while the rest of the old garrote ticks wiht "normal" dmg
u know what i mean, like if u have 3 ticks left
So like
and apply a new garrote
It works like this:
well that shouldnt be hard to calculate , garrote is 45 energy , 2 more seconds is what ... 2 ticks? If those two ticks are better dmg than for example one mutilate you could do with that energy then i would say refreshing it once more is better. But thats just my opinion and tbh neve rly bothered to calculate that
are the 3 ticks buffed now?
Under a certain threshold of the dots, 5.4 seconds for garrote and 7.2 for rupture, reapplying a new version of that bleed will just add the remaining time left
So if your garrote is at 10 seconds left
zine thats not the question 😄
yeah the new garrote will be buffed whole , doesnt matter u refresehd it with 3 seconds of unbuffed garrote remaining
i write jsut above
k thanks @cobalt flame
he is asking if he refreshes unbuffed garrote with 3 seconds remaing with buffed one
if the new garrote will tick 3 seconds unbuffed
and then buffed
or it will be buffed whole
Isn't this just basic pandemic or
yes it is
am I missing something 
you are not and cant really blame you for being confuesed 😄
You simply want to refresh garrote with vanish in pandemic window so you have longer buffed garrote
thats it
nothing more to it
sry i wasnt able to articulate it properly + im confused aswell 😛
like wtf
even with condensed major those gems i have now sim the best
eventhough haste value is so high

one's weekly if that makes a difference
build shoulda just been redone so shouldn't matter(?)
something is wrong is your sims @cobalt flame , there shouldn't be 300 dps difference
300 dps diff of what
between gem setup
there is a 300 dps difference in its sims (the one he linked) between all gems setup and current equipped gear
coming from all gem setup using Gale insteed of nagivation
you forget to set "always use" on the 120 agility gem also
Might reach 41k with it 😄

Yeah but shouldn't the build just've become weekly
Like nightly and weekly are the same atm aren't they
its different ring aswell
ye I saw but the rings are pretty closes
Damn I was hyped for Blizzard to make new lockbox
Now I'm reciving 20 lockbox a day in my mail box -.-
and 415 socket probs > 440 w/out
@tribal marlin I shut that shit down real quick
Was having the same issue till I just started keeping every single one
xD
is ss or eb better in m+ if i have to pick between them
One guy sent me a lot of
I just snatch the gold in it
I think he does not even know thoos box contain gold :/
@tiny granite is it your first trait of both?
Ok, what are your other traits
NP, SS
TTK, EB
for my helm can choose SS or EB and TTK
id take the ss
Kinda just depends on how you pull/the specific dungeon at that point
I played subter btw on our nhc run
But yeah SS probably all around better
hello - does gloves with frost dmg or heal with gem slot are good for EPalace ?
benthic ones
BOTE major Lucid Minor?
Your question being?
is that whats recommended?
Currently it's bis, if bote is r3, yeah
Next week life force will be better though, since people get r3
i currently have r2 of life essence and i have 18x Aqeuous Reliquary
will I get it next week?
yes
how does the reliquary drops go even? it seems like I get a random amount from each boss
it'll be interesting to see what happens, probably haste is gonna skyrocket
yes channel prepull
so channel font, prepot, stealth
use it 10 seconds before vendetta to get 10 seconds before and 20 seconds inside vendetter
VALUE
within your big ma vanish window
can anyone clarify how to properly use of razor coral?
it reealy depends on the legnth of the fight
so you probably want to delay vendatta then?
and even more so where you are lustintg as well
but yes usually paired with a deep vendetta
then afterwards you can use it on cd if the fight will end relatively soon
for example on ashvane im activating coral on the pull and then activating it at 6 minutes with vendetta
Okay so probably use the trinket insta again when it comes up and then vendatta 10 secs later again
and lust
since the cd is both 2 mins
lmao youre talking about different trinkets here mates
ye i noticed ^^
legit font is super easy to use
big thing isd make sure you have the buff within the entire vendetta window
you stack coral for 6min omr?

depends on how many procs u get
so u wanna use coral and inkpod or coral and font?? tho is never good to use 2 use trinkets 😛
you can combine coral and inkpod together to get huge damage
i lke that combo more than font for prog i think
oh did you have inkpod? or are you just doing it for 3rd shield burn
i think inkpod is more valuable than the sims indicate tbh
i dont have an inkpod myself
i have the 3 😛
Does it feel like coral and ma together are kinda a waste?
Cuz I think that’s probably how I’d feel about it if I had a coral D:
yeah but u can vanish ma and then activate coral after
Oh true I guess
itll be even less of an issue once people get rank 3 golem boy since are more likely to not overcap without BOTE
i think sin still takes bote on zaqul though
why
Perfecto was playing vop minor which was kinda weird
Because he was holding everything for vanish anyway
its to have vendetta every time they go in that phase
I guess it must have been
Hey, does anyone have that spread sheet with the azerite gear? The one that listed which as what and the ideal one to go for.
Finally hit socket boots
just blasting the shit downstairs as sin is huge
Fair enough
imtryna play outlaw on that fight though tbh
Cuz of that Chinese log?
i was watchin him play ye
Was he doing anything particularly special?
just blastin add and boss damage
Hell yeah
basically him and the spriest were carrying adds and let the rest of the raid pure focus st
but if you dont have sin rogues to go down its prob best to go sin
I played subtlety on that fight in hc but idk about that lmao
but my group got hella rogues if thats the setup we go in so i can pro be fine playin law
I’m the only rogue in my guild I think I probs go sin 😐
you are already at mythic zaqul? 
i ran waycrest 10 and ML 11 yesterday on my gimp rogue
i had 3 x SS, 2 x TTK and 1 scent (yes..), and i gotta say, on packs my dmg was really nice
!offhand
i was surprised at times how much dmg i was doing 😮
Nah I’m not even close yet but thinking about how I want to play prog fights is fun
I think omr’s close though right
noones using loyal to the end in my raid
might aswell look for a new guild am i right?
well, if you consider quitting despite running loyal to the end, youre not really that loyal are you?

Depends on what the end is
!essence
Assassination Essences overview: https://bit.ly/2XaZOVd
Does crippling poison stack with multiple ass rogues?
yeah if u have 2 assa rogues the target is rooted
Awesome 😄

If you have 3, you stun a non-boss target. 4 and you stun boss targets too. That's why people stack rogues.
and on a 5th rogue, the boss gets instant annihilated?
no rofl dont be silly
With 6 you can instantly pickpocket the loot

Waist: 2% damage to aberrations / Physical damage
What bosses what that now again?
Orgozoa?
Gorgonzola XD
because if the target dies it resets the cooldown and gives you the stacks
if only i had that pikachu surprised face now... i keep using old trinket out of raid because of it
thought would never get the benefit
thanks!


So, I got Ashvane trinket and I've checked the Pinned to get a better understanding of its usage, but I'm confused. I should cast it on pull then consume it for each vendetta and that's it?
Once I consume it I have to manually reapply it?
welp for the first vendetta it's kinda tricky
bc using it pre pull would pull the boss afaik
but yeah
general idea is to pair it with vendetta
you cant crit on barriers
it's just flagged as normal hit with the double dmg
if you macro it with vendetta, you just have to press vendetta button after it finishes, and it will reapply trinket only
Its like this: Razor coral should be used on pull alongside your first GCD. Afterwards, you use it to convert the proc into Crit DMG after Master Assassin has faded, or if talented into subterfuge you macro it with vendetta. After that, the 20s Crit Buff fades, you need to make sure you re-apply iy.
Now note that all of this is valid only if you do not have Azshara Font.
So I could macro it to Garrote casted from stealth, then to vendetta. Once the 20s buff runs out I simply press Vendetta again. Will it work this way?
Yes, that's it.
At zarqul I’ll only do Boss dmg as sin if we have enough aoe or?
You also need to remember to use it again after the 20s Vendetta runs out.
To re-apply it.
That's after the 2nd vendetta of the fight.
Basically, before vendetta 1, you apply it with garrote, then after 2nd vendetta ends, you have to re-apply manually after all vendetta usages.
i do not recommend binding a trinket to garrote tho
If it's garrote from stealth, and if it's ashvane, there can't be any harm to it.
I would use the macro only when stealthed
^
Speaking of trinkets, how do you use Coral and Font together most efficiently pls?
(Don’t know if it’s pinned)
APL uses Font 10s before you use Vendetta.
(Can’t see on mobile)
So basically, azhsara font 10s before vendetta, and coral 10s into vendetta.
Ok thanks, what’s APL?
It's Action priority List of the sims.
is there a way to check from logs the amount of casts of envenom while TB is up? (filter on both skills)
i'm trying by using Tables + Casts but I can only choose one of the abilities
you can click the TB buff icon below the graph
when its green it shows abilities used while TB was up
thanks
yeah.. i cant get that yellow bar to show
you go to debuffs
set the filter to "cast by friendly"
and click the plus on the right side of toxic blade
should enable the yellow bar
i made it. Didn't know you can carry over selections like that to other graphs, thanks
then head over to casts and disable mutilate and enable envenom
and it looks like this
can someone pm me regarding sims please
just ask away
so i'm having about 2.5 envenoms per TB window ,where do i check if this is good/bad etc? 😄

Assassination Essences overview: https://bit.ly/2XaZOVd
For arenas whats best essence im just using lucid dreams but not sure if i should swap out
a good idea would be to check what the top people on the ladder use. I personally go with Crucible of Flame because i dont want to bother with focusing iris
anyone know quick what ilvl the timewalking weekly rewards is it heroic ?
415
So what Benthic Bracers are better now for mythic raiding, Pufferfish or Frostbolt?
sim it
i use pufferfish, the frost ones were only a 60dps upgrade from them.
practically, whichever you get a socket in first is the choice.

blizz is just waiting until everybody got he benthic stuff upgraded, then they will nerf it
u sure ? wasnt it that they are as strong as 455 gear ?
You'd think it would be done prior to mythic if that's the case. Post WF is there really much point.
the main issue is gear scaling AND socket value
basically a socket alone is worth several itemlvls
id like to see sockets being much weaker
blizz basically fucked up the gear scaling
very much!
Sockets started too high
and the result is that a 425 socket item with an additional effect is better then alternatives
People have been saying that sockets are too good all expansion and then they added better gems
@vestal wren if it only was 425
they should scale primary much higher, to maybe at the end of an addon equal with secondary stats
i have 450 wrists getting beaten by 400 benthic wrist 🤷
at least benthic is only useful in EP
just keep in mind:
base itemlvl (425)
socket 20-30+ itemlvls worth
effect 10-20+ itemlvls worth
so in the exteme case a 400 itemlvl with a good benthic and a socket can ebat a 450
@honest heath imagine it wasn't like that
get a 450 socket and compare again
grinding benthic to do m+ lol
or remove socket from benthic
oh lord...I'd hate wow
"+10 atal only pufferfish bracer players"
its not an issue of benthic, sockets have the highest impact
I already hate benthic...dumped 400 pearls on main + 200 on alts and still got no socket anything
fish for belt
create a new rating...benthic.io score
its the easiest to get
Already got boots and belt 425 socketed with only stuff from main 
i have a pin in #wow-general with benthic effect chances, if you fish for boots you will have it way harder then f.ex. belt
which belt do i want? or is either one good?
also both belts are rly good
Aberration one is god tier
that's what I remember..it's like threat/dmg or the abbaration one
so, belt is kinda: if i get a socket 👀
then lower you go on the list, then higher your gamble
I remember your pin...I have all the benthic pieces I need...just none of them have a socket so I'm hesitant to boost them
dont boost until you get a socket
i made that mistake so i have a non-socketed belt at 420 and i hate myself for it 😄
since a 400 socketed belt is better
btw has anyone found a way in which you can bash a dummy and still use vanish? without reseting combat and dmg meter etc?
in details use dynamic meter and current, then swap to normal damage and overall after you are done
or use skada for dummies
thanks
Is someone else noticing lags in like spell queue? U hit an action in raid and then a different button but it feels ‚sticky‘ and takes a few ms till it’s done. My latency is good
Very annoying all actions feel sticky and not „fast enough“ even though u have enough energy and it’s not the GCD though
No it’s like this for a few weeks
what's your spell queue set at?
Idk where can I see?
/dump GetCVar("SpellQueueWindow")
400ms is standard spell queue
My latency is 20ms if that matters
even wiht rank 3 Condensed Life force is jsut fire and forget right?
61 benthic boots, no akanas witha socket
That is nothing, im almost at 150 rolls now
Still no socket boots
Doing ~24 rolls of disappointment every day
i am not tilt resistant enough to farm hardcore for the boots
take alllll that time you are putting into min/maxing one slot and take that to M+. You will be much better rewarded.
@strange python i experience that a lot
press mutilate, press envenom, press mutilate
what happens:
mutilate, sub-1gcd-delay, mutilate
the lower spell queue MS you have the more precise you have to be with your presses
if you spam abilities before they come off cd you're better off having like 100 ms or thereabouts
yeah i think this is what i am doing..i am spamming an ability until it's cast
then i switch to another
Yes @potent raft
I lowered spell queue but it doesn’t save after relog it’s back at 400 why -.-
having low spell queue MS is just bad, you'd think it would be good but its not
It felt better when I tested tho
?????????
Yea like if you're a person that just presses 1 thing every now and then its no difference
No I spam af
then low spell queue is bad
???????? @faint harness r u trolling or
cus while you spam you queue up an ability right, thats what it does.
I think it’s the opposite
It really isnt
If u spam u wane lower
No
If u sleep higher
Go spend 2 minutes on a dummy as Outlaw with 300 spell que and 100 spell que and tell me what feels better
Its the complete opposite
100 spell queue MS is what i use
but i wouldnt go below that
High que feels like sticky buttons idk
Ok that is also low???
spell queue is your friend
i have like spikey ass raidms all the time idk
it legit just depends what room i'm in
sometimes the game is borderline unplayable
Like you want spell queue MS, its not a bad thing
i'm pretty sure that if you press an ability only once and dont spam spell queue is GOOD
since you might have pressed it too early
if you spam a lot, you don't need the spell queue since you are spamming it anyway
there's no chance it wont come off
100ms spellqueue is bad.
you'd think so, but we're talking miliseconds here right
?
you can go too low and end up with gaps between between GCDs, check logs regardless of how it feels after you tinker wiht it
not answering you aimbotter
what @royal torrent says
having 100ms spellqueue means you're having to press your keys at a rate of like 10 times per second towards the end of ur gcds
@crisp steppe what in your opinion is a good spell queue value?
400 is fine. you can lower it yourself to 200 or whatever you think is reasonable depending on how quickly you press your stuff
its just some ppl misunderstanding what spell queue MS does i think. OH man i wanna have superlow spell queue MS LUL
I have these gaps @royal torrent with 400ms
If u have spell queue off ur abilitys arnt going off right when GCD comes off cooldown playing with spell queue off is very bad and causes stuttering in the rotation which adds up to missed GCDs at the end of a fight the general rule of spell queue is ur MS+100
the thing is that if you queue something else before the the next spell in the queue actually gets cast it still gets changed
so you can in fact adjust your next spell 150ms before it fires even with a 400ms queue
Im testing 40 in a sec on shivara, 400 feels like Shit
I will tell u in a minute how 40 feels
you have to be very precise with your clicks if you go lower, trust
400 will feel like shit if ur a spammer just do ur MS+100
i mean if you spam with 400ms, there's a higher chance you double cast mutilate when you dont mean too.
Lowering the delay means you're less likely to double cast but more likely to have gaps between your casts as you dont have the larger queue time
Which Azerite piece are you guys buying today
you shouldn't be able to notice ur spellqueue very much at all if you play on low latency
400 feels the same as 200 to me
I have 20ms latency but the gaps were insane last raid with 400 very annoying
i have 15-16 ms and i double cast
how/where in logs do you check about gcd gaps?
40 is trash no point in tresting
i think you're just confusing busted ass servers with spell queueing
^
pretty much
you can try spellqueue 1000
@cobalt pelican idk my world latency is good too
see how that affects you
I know it doesn't affect me very much for
its only if I wanted to not cast anything that it woudl
do you know how the queue works?
is it FIFO or FILO?
if I want to change my next spell then a queue of 1000 is fine still
filo
you can always modify gcds before they come out if you aren't lagging out of the ass
@crisp steppe this is probably the dumbest thing ive read in a while, ty.
@near python you simply lack understanding on how the system works
