pretty sensible i think
I'm rolling head for m+/outlaw/small st gain until zaq
sanguine is free weeks
Do I still go for gorak or try ceph
Gorak
but it does make some dungs annoying
The new font/coral sim boosts my crit weight, so Gorak is actually even more valuable
I'm happy they added it
you're due some luck i believe in you :')
i'm only being nice so that santa claus will smile upon me and give me stuff too
If I scrap both my pistoleer's I'll have enough to try again Tuesday :^)
Whoever sims 47k already doesn't deserve luck :^)
That's a droptimizer sim though
Still 1.5k more than me :p
Have you not seen raz's sims vel
You have his sim @rigid mango ?
I'd trade in this gear lottery for pb procs anyday
guys imagine not simming 45k 4 weeks into the tier

I don't wanna get even more depressed seeing someone mathematically better than me just cuz he right clicked a bosses corpse more skillfully than I
PB procs? What is that again?
I'm still salty with my first kill on Star Augur
I got 3 pb procs
It was like a 6-7 minute fight smh
shit happens
What does pb stand for?
boison pomb
poison bomb
Ah
xD
but nowadays
Meh at least its damage is largely irrelevant nowadays
pb does zero dmg in comparison to legion
Well, we're discussing 1% differences in dps on gear
TB procs can sometimes make exactly the same difference
PB sorry
😃
Oof
u didnt like the chinese guilds playing 4 grip tanks on portal keeper and resetting the boss if they didnt get pbs to grip into
?
great times and if u lucky with massive pb rows, the raid dies cause the tank has fallen over a stone
When is it okay to like anything a chinese guild does
ah yes the much dreaded portal keeper boss 🤔
Font+Coral usage is now 4sec pre Font -> coral and than coral with every vend?
epic sin gamers i need help
are we still going with spyglass and dice for m+ or are there better raid trinkets?
spyglass for sure
@cold patio It's in #tc-research should be pinned soon
@bronze topaz spyglass is aight, font/coral look nuts
Mystler's post, right @rigid mango ?
Yep
yeah i found it there just wanted double check^^ played 10sec pre and useing coral stacks with 3th vend
how do i utilitze coral? when i tried it i was running around with only ~2 stacks all the time because adds died pretty fast.
@rigid mango just wait till Wednesday, I’ll sim 48,5k

Big pog
Why wedn @scarlet sequoia
I get bis chest from pvp
it's CHEST WEEK WOO
And 63 neck
Guaranteed?
when u know channel font 4sec precombat when u prepot?^^
Idk what the system is for pvp
every week above 2.1 you get a chance at an upgrade token you can just
sit on forever
it drops from your box
Warlords trophy, look it up
Will do
I got one 2 weeks in a row so got bis head and chest from pvp
i'll never get a fking warlords trophy at this rate this season
I should really grind 2100 huh
it's super worth at the start of a tier
even though that's the most pain in the ass time to get it
it's been basically double azerite chances for me throughout bfa
but i still never lucky
!ui
you get your weekly box, based on your rating
and your weekly conquest cap, which is fixed ilvl to 415
your weekly box can contain either a warlords trophy, which upgrades any piece to your ratings ilvl
or any of the set pieces (including azerite pieces themselves)
you have to wait for the weekly conquest cap to have 415 helm
cap, get the helm and wait
or if you want chest you have to wait for the chest week which is next week for example
So you need to RNG helm and RNG trophy?
cause it's a set rotation of item
nah the helm is like
2nd week of conquest
it went like
weps > helms > trinkets > legs > chest
or some shi
so you just cap conquest 2x (doable in ~2 hours of 2v2 or some shit) and grab the 415 helm from the reward
And then rng the trophy, aight
!benthic
in the pins
yea rng either the trophy or the helm already at 445 from the weekly box like m+ basically
it's kinda weird you can still get full azerite pieces from your pvp weekly chest but eh whatever
Sounds like a lot of effort
you basically just get the rating and open your box on wednesday
To have rng dick me down anyways
getting the rating is a pain depending on if you know people or not
2 boxes is like
100% better than 1 box on wednesday though
it's like DOUBLE christmas
Yeah but I don't really play pvp
yee
nor do I know any healers so
it's a pain in the ass if you don't have like
some guy you can just queue with
cause lfg is like
bigkanker
Probably wont do it tbh
if I knew some healer whow as keen I might
But the only ppl I can think of, are all dps
Yep
unless on the eye boss and za'qul i suppose
raid bots shows me to gem everything to hase, stat weights show haste last. I should follow the raidbots best gear sim right?
hey guys. im at 423 ilvl and im simming 29k dps on patchwork, is this super low?
no
and yes just follow top gear as long as you can confirm you have all of the gems selected for simming
another question. is the best build for m+ a bleed orientated build or a poison build? or are both equal and only dependant on stats? im a bit of a noob player and im looking to improve my m+ dps without switching to outlaw
is EB a necessity for m+
yes, otherwise your trash damage sucks
need 3?
I just have 1 rn without fucking up my st set
i dont have enough azerite gear rn to make two sin sets
dont go with DD though, it sucks for m+
Depends on the dungeon, you will need at least 1 for all and go up to 3 if it is trash heavy
b/c you fan more than you mut?
because you pretty much only fok
i really want to just have a single set for both dungeons and raids, so what would be the best set of traits? i dont play the game enough to have 2 sets (i know it wont be bis for either)
you cant really, raids and m+ need different things
i guess if you really really can't, go with ttk and SS traits
and keep some piece with 1 EB on the side
or just play outlul
go play outlaw will be the best answer we can give you i guess. Because you'll need at least 2 sets for assa.
my problem with playing outlaw is both of my weapons are trash :/ i sim 5k less with outlaw, even with my good ilvl dagger in offh
you can play the game for like
1 hour a week and have 2 sets
they'll just both be low ilvl sets but be better at each thing
tbh, if you dont play the game enough to get 2 sets you are probably not going to do very high keys and stuff
Weapons are droppable in m+, it should not be smth that will hold you back. Offhand dps is rly low and doesnt matter that much overall
yea, my current m+ set with 415 azerite since i used my stuff for raids
You can have 420 azerite parts for m+ with bis traits. It will be better than 445 with sub optimal ones
and i manage 15s easily enough
so even if my ilvl decreases quite a bit and lose a few stats, the second set will still be better bc of traits?
probably
depends on the traits but as ageneral rule of thumb yes
i still run 1 420 piece in m+ despite having several higher ilvl
okay then. i have 2 420 chests but aside from that, i have like 385 ilvl head and shoulders spare
I am full 420 still and doing 17+ keys easely
whats your ilvl? you can get a 415 piece from an emisary
and if you manage a 10 you can probably buy 445 pieces eventually
im 423
yea, emisaries will give you 415 pieces
yeah thats how i got my assa set, guess it will just be a waiting game then or just farm mythic +, thanks guys
probably advice some people will disagree with but
if you're turbocasual
but do a 10
just buy a shitload of 415 pieces
if you have 385 pieces still somehow in helm slot
1 10 is like.. 10 420 azerite rolls
and you'll get useful pieces before 10 rolls then you can save the rest to move to 430 stuff the week after
Hey guys my toon simms relatively low for my ilvl/gear. Could anyone have a little look and lemme know what you think please
1 socket 0 benthic
^^
ya this looks like my ilvl set
just all the junk i've accrued with high number on it
The only holes I have on my gear anymore is my benthic, down from 10 
I've got a couple pieces with sockets but the higher ones sim more
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sPFQRvbhVBBvyphjbP1dZp -4 ilvl drop +1500dps increase
its almost as if ilvl doesnt matter
get to farmin pearls
I'm fairly casual particularly with raiding so I'll not push too hard for the benthic. Thanks for the tips
fathomstalker or vim?
are you hitting an aberration
should get phys dmg one first as it works on 6/8 bosses
and for orgozoa zaqul aberration belt is better
well it works on all bosses
just other one is better for 2 of them
just got fathomstalker with socket
its easiest to get the belts socketed tho as there's only 2 for leather, but like 4-6 for some of the other pieces
i know i know
Sorry for asking this but do u guys remove coral from the boss when the big adds pop on Radiance ?
and re use coral on the boss when adds die ?
so the wrist I got, benthic, deals damage to all nearby enemies, but that is not one of the two BiS correct/
?
its frost damage or fish
ok, this just does physical damage it was socketed though so it might be ok
but i'll keep rolling for the others
No, it's not as good as the others
Kinda confuse about azshara trinket and coral in the fight i know for the opening but i don't know if it's better to use azshara trinket do vendetta etc and then use coral because of the cd when u one trinket
what you guys are using for m+ ? IRIS or Blood ?
i've been trying both and im starting to think blood is better
also looking at some logs : https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/rankings/20#class=Rogue&spec=Assassination&leaderboards=1
its like 60% blood 40% iris
Updated pin to include coral and font use 
@solid nova 
feels like blood is better for tyranical weeks
but thats just my opinion, dont take it as a fact
Hey, how u sim your best gear bcs i cant decide 😦
@solid nova I'm not sure if I got it right? I'm using Font 5 sec before the fight(for the full stats buff) go full CDs(Vendetta/TB etc.)... and then use Coral to stack debuff on the boss and use the coral with 100% crit with Vendetta?
Do you think it's incorrect if pinned? @pseudo hamlet ?
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/aQBhY6nFc4Wpmxwj#fight=1&type=damage-done what I did bad can someone tell me
@rigid mango I mean like Azshara trinket is going off the CD the same time Vendetta all the time(they both have 2 min cd), but if Coral is stronger with Vendetta window then it's fine.
How and when shall I use guardian of azeroth ?
On CD
in the pins
@pseudo hamlet but would you not want 14 seconds of our vend being empowered by both trinks 🤔
More like 10 sec, but yeah. That's true.
No
exactly 14.
Since I was the dude who talked w the TC guys about this even being an upgrade, trust me I know what I'm talking about 😄
It's specifically for the combo of the two trinkets though.
Ah yeah, it's goes CD the moment you start to cast. My bad! 

Hi! can we talk about openers on queens court?
Depends on your setup
Does DD damage increase with mastery?
I brought up the usage of font+coral ages ago but not confirming its a true method. Good to know its been confirmed
on ashvane would you consider replacing font with inkpod?
gonna depend on timings I think but ink very good for ashvane. I think its got a cap of 1.5 mil damage
Inkpod is reallt good on first kills for sure
When you rekill and get sub 30% before 3rd shield it'll probs get a bit worse
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/3ncXYFT9nZCQzbxgdGH68k
Do we have a new Opener ?
When looking at the Ability Sample
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/xhjm32BkeFCfryywCWxDFv guys what can I do to improve ? Im new here
With that dps, probably everything
how can I get more dps then? I don't really understand
Benthic, better azerite
better trinkets
better weapons
sockets
All of the above
what about m+ or you are not familiar with it?
I'm entirely familiar with it
ok what about it what azerite powers to stack ?
okay man thank you
glgl
and also i want to ask why does my stat weight say I need mastery I got 41%
do i need more?
Out of sheer curiosity how well does 3 NP's + rank 3 vision of perfection parse?
Not well
Vision is a very poor choice
Vision is acceptable as a minor on zaqul for lineups
@placid root if single target sim tell you mastery is your best value, stick to it
Other than that, never.
Not that I have the stuff to run it, I just had read somewhere vision procs the NP trait, so was curious if it did anything decent.
it procs it with a lower dmg according to the time of the proc
Ah
just do it to apply poison if you need to
Best raid DPS I'm assuming is shooting for 3DD and 3NPs.
@normal shale 3 dd 1 np bbi ttk/ 3 op
best raid dps is zaqul helm, gorak shoulders, behe/ceph chest
Oh damn, a dungeon azerite piece?
I managed to get the top1 solo target shoulders and now I have a choice between two traits
lol
1/2 of them, yeah
(wasn't answering you if you thought I did)
from bloodmallet I realised the best one is https://www.wowhead.com/spell=303008/undulating-tides
It's really bad
bis helm and bis chest can also be obtained from pvp
It's a bait sim
and I don't have the faintest idea why
It's infact, very mediocre for any content that would drop you low.
why is it a good choice
It isn’t. Don’t use it
Didn't realize BBI was so good.
should I even check my traits with this source
well bloodmallet doesnt assume you drop below 50%
lol
It assumes UT has 100% uptime
ok I see, I'd choose this one instead https://www.wowhead.com/spell=277679/scent-of-blood
actually
maybe I'm a little bit annoying but
well scent is so bad id rather keep UT tbh
I'm confessing that it's my first experience on the rogue
but it really depends what kind of content you are running
and in either way you should sim and go from there
why this trait is one of the best https://es.wowhead.com/spell=286573/nada-personal
Because everything as a Sin rogue revolves around Vendetta
you know, I can understand why the tides are good cause you're supposed to live and not to drop your hp below 50%
Yeah that’s a shit scenario to have to pick
Yeah but unavoidable damage is a thing
its not the energy, its the damage it does
Yes
aah
Energy isn’t the main perk
It just happens to have it tacked on
Which is a bonus
And there's like no point in discussing it, it's just good. Period.
I don't know the proper Eng name for it
like for 35% effiency of your cd
or sth like this
yes
Guys, when do I use my CLF in my opener?
It’s very bad
I see
before vendetta krisko
It should be in the pins.
I don't have a choice now lmao
should you use it on
?
Yes?
kk
You don't use vendetta that early
right?
You do use it after getting unstealthed, right?
It's basically your fifth global
man on radiance putting bleeds on the adds feeels so abd
they die so fast
@rigid mango wtf you don't vendetta on pull?
You do, but after your initial opener?
Are you actually using Vendetta as first global from stealth?
@strange python how are you opening out of stealth?
!guide
Assassination Guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
read that
I hope it is
one more question, I'd just like to hear the opinion from experienced rogues
I've got probably the easiest obtained shoulders now
but as I see
they're good enough
Should have taken SS
aren't they
go ss instead imo
Take SS and retalent into Subterfuge
ss is?
Shrouded Suffocation
Shrouded suffocation
yes
I see
ACTUALLY lol
was always wondering
when I had some shitty shoulders with it
FoK is M+ only (or to pad logs on Opulence)
like what is the main point of it on bosses when I can use garrote up to 3 times
You don’t use it 3 times
after stealth
You overlap CP if you do it 3 times
well EB on bosses would be 0 dmg
And you're not increasing the damage, because you profit from Pandemic only once
Right
@cerulean walrus what
?
Sup
You are 
I mean you hadn't read the guide

I just read the pins
I'd recommend reading the core guide
pandemic is the other talent, isn't it?
I was trying to remember it lol
Pandemic isn't a talent
From* your existing dots
below 30%
@magic silo there's a pinned definition
when you use rupture
@cerulean walrus sry bro that you're better than me
maybe u can point out vendetta on pull isnt good instead of calling it trolling
would be more helpful 😃
yes, I'm peeking at it
@strange python have you read the guide at all?
Dude obviously vendetta on pull is bad......
It's a good starting point
Like what?

thanks zine for being useful 😃
there're so many new acronyms lol as well as words for me cause I haven't experienced the english rogue yet
in russian we use them too tho
!abb
Rogue abbreviations: http://www.ravenholdt.net/rogue-abbreviations/
!guide
Assassination Guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
but now as many lmao
yeah its called pandemic because before only warlock had it
and thats what it was called there
but thank you
Yeah
ok so eventually
I'd just choose sth like this on my benthic
and probably use it on the rb
the problem is that I've got two not so awful shoulders I guess
at least imo
obviously they're not the best but I must get gear before the eternal palace
Ah you haven’t started yet okay
Hmmm
Well yeah rolling specifics is a joke unless you only need that one piece
Benthic shoulders can up to up to 430 correct?
yeah but 415-430 is 350 pearls
Cause that’s still far better than anything else that he can get
Got boots with a gem, been feeding to pearls. Only doing heroic raiding ATM, should I switch to lottery belt now?
gorak?
use guardian of azeroth pre pull?
Gorak Tul’s Mantle
I'll google it
I'm simming 230 dps higher with Head 1: DD / NP / Overwhelming Power but I get way better results on ashvane with Head 2: DD / TTK / Gutripper. Boss not below 30% health yet. How is that possible? Its feels way better.
OP is OP
ok lol it's just from a dungeon
maybe just get more consistent in your performance
instead of thinking it's your gear
was talking to the other guy
I've found you cause no one from my guild knows about the specific performance (don't know the proper word lol) of Undulating Tides trait
I see, sorry
dont use that trait
yes, I've been already told about its drawback
like
I'm not even able to survive the whole battle on >50% hp in m+
not always but anyway
Nah im changing the two heads constantly, always getting better results with DD + TTK what sims 230 dps lower than DD + NP one...
do you have another np trait somewhere
The results seem very anecdotal
Your results from a few attempts don't compare to the thousands of iterations in a sim
No I dont have another NP trait
Its pretty weird... I usually trust sims but I end up way higher every try with Head 2, that should be worse.
Perhaps the human element is the issue 
@magic silo I always recommend playing in English, as it makes it so much easier to understand what people are talking about in forums or here on Discord
Should I be holding vendetta for TB to come up?
Yep
@past marten sure, it's way easier
again, to tell the truth
godfathers from either vanilla or bc was playing on English
as a result, now it's much more convenient for players to use english names of spells, items, talents, specs etc.
(actually, I don't know what's going on with other languages, however russian translations are a little bit awkward)
the last question (and it's not connected with rogues particularly, though)
you've said the best shoulders are these ones
They are the BiS.
but even in m+ its ilvl is too low, isn't it?
You can buy them from a vendor
He doesn't know lmao
I mean, 370
Isn't using TB at 3 CP acceptable?
You can crit and get to 5 for an envenom, but 4 CP finishers are generally OK
You finish at 4
And you potentially lose 2 CP if Mut double crits?
So TB at 3. Gives 4. Is acceptable?
Finishing at 4+ is optimal, yes
Because I also hear using TB at 5 is fine.
asked before my think no one was on
what you guys are using for m+ ? IRIS or Blood ?
i've been trying both and im starting to think blood is better
also looking at some logs : https://www.warcraftlogs.com/zone/rankings/20#class=Rogue&spec=Assassination&leaderboards=1
its like 60% blood 40% iris
its probably blood, alot of people dont even have it
but I think the difference isnt insanely big between them
farming blood when no brawl is up lmao
If you didn't get it week one with the weekly, it's over..
next week theres a decentish brawl aswell
yeah im not gonna farm it, just gonna get it slowly passively
What you need for rank 3 ?
also alterac + asharan and wintercrast have a quest for 1k honor
i know its 15k for Rank 2
50k
hahahahaha omg
Will just afk in alterac xD
or give it to a little brother to run around hahah '
blood is so much better to play too
you dot everything and cast insta
for massive dmg
wintergrasp quest didn't count for the achievement for me
I feel like I know the answer... but drop DD for EB, even a second EB this week?
Never use dd in m+
Only if u lack of azerite pieces, but not even then
If you hard lack of azerite pieces go farm get 400 with eb/ttk/ss
Some combinations of them
ah yeah teeming makes eb even better
for the second usage of vendetta/vanish, what is the optimal burst window rotation there? Vendetta > Vanish > Garrote > Mutilate > Rupture > TB?
Only vanish into garrote if you have SS
I have 1x SS, mostly because I don't have better azerite gear yet
3x DD, 2x NP, 1x SS
Loyal to the End
I have one with EB and DD too, but that piece doesn't have overwhelming power
Eh SS is fine
loyal to the end is fine if you have 4 other people in your raid using it
Loyal is good with 4 others wearing
yeah, no one is stacking it though
Definitely would be stronger than using SS
but other than that, is my burst window correct?
or should I vendetta > vanish > TB > mutilate > envenom?
and just have garrote and rupture up before burst window?
If you’re using SS use Garrote
Should be in the guide though
I haven’t used SS in a while
^wat
Dude I’m tired AF
this some next level trollrotation
the guide has the opener, but not mid-fight CD burst window
So, I've been trying out sin in keys recently (only like 15s though since I'm still getting used to it), and it feels like the damage on the trash is good (though not quite as good as outlaw), but on the boss I'm energy starved a lot and find the damage underwhelming from what I'd expect from an assassination rogue. The traits I'm running with are 3x TTK, 2x EB, and 1x SS. I have 1 overwhelming power and my essences are the focused iris major and lucid minor. From what I've read the ideal amount of haste for a sin rogue in keys is just what's on your neck. I'm running a low(ish) haste build, but I do still have some more haste than my neck gives. How do you all deal with this single tatget deficit that seems to happen on bosses with this sort of build? Right now the way it plays makes me feel like I'd be better off as outlaw doing more trash damage and slightly less boss damage.
With a lot less effort
thats basically how it is
you have to work real hard and be good to be on par with outlaw
and gearing is 2x harder
not 100% sure how big the actual st difference is
Then why would anybody play sin instead of outlaw in keys?
because they are both toptier specs for m+ and some people just enjoy assa more
the difference isnt that big, mostly comes down to assa player skill
and it even slightly decreases on higher keys since assa has slightly better scaling
Cause Sin is hella fun on huge packs
Also feels higher skill ceiling on chain pulls and choosing what to focus
At least imo
It definitely has a higher skill cap
Outlaw feels faceroll as fuck
Ya that's why I'm trying sin
Plus if you’re better at Sin you’re going to get better results
Well how can you be "better" at sin, assuming you know how to play both?
as a person who is a hard advocate for sin in m+
One of then is pretty objectively easier
I'm honestly unsure if anything can beat outlaw atm.
I think sin has places it can for sure be better at, but I think outlaw is just so insane atm
outlaw is just gonna get monk legion aoe treatment sooner or later
I think outlaw more skill 😋

I dont understand the rational of this low haste build though
haste is 0 dps stat on aoe
Haste is usless if you have 3 targets
Yeah but then you fight the boss and and spend half the fight waiting for mutilate to light up
I run 1 haste weap ench + as many op I can + lucid minor to make up for the lack of haste for ST
Seems a little overboard imo
its not that impactful on st even, on st you lose alot more from traits not your actual stats
It's really not
Sin is so stat reliant
Crit value for EB, Mastery for ttk, vers for everything
They're all really high value, haste is fuckall
There's ways to "cheat" haste, like I do with ench/op/lucid minor
But there's no valid reason to take haste on consistant aoe pulls
I'm running an op as well and lucid minor
Because about 6-7 GCD's in, your entire stat is worth 0
Still feels hella energy starved on the boss
I mean, that's sorta sin normally anyways
Well, you obviously won't feel like 'raid trait' sin
I'm running with 40% crit, 35% mastery, 11 or 12% haste (cant remember but i have like 670 haste) and 2% vers
Sin felt way slower in 8.1 than it does now, so I'm kind of used to it
I run literally only neck haste
But this ring has a lot of mastery too
But it also has haste
My best alternative is a 435 unsocketed crit vers ring
I prefer not running a stat that is effectivly afk for 80% of a run
The essence of your discussion is why I still play Outlaw in M+
It's easier to maintain outlaw as offspec than gearing sin for both m+ and raids
Ya when I switched I didnt expect to beat outlaw on trash but I thought I could pump bosses
This low haste thing makes that not even doable compared to other classes
Haste is traaaaaaaaash
I mean
On a tyr like
17 ad? I pumped 45k end if fight 1st boss
Haste isn't worth as much as you think, it's more about feel
Its worth using 2 mutilates when you might only be able to use one
45k with 2EB and superlow haste?
Sounds a little rngsus to me
Obv
I mean if the consensus is it's a bad stat then I wont argue with that but I definitely think this makes sin in m+ even less competitive with outlaw
Because now they dont even do insane boss damage
I think you overvalue haste on st way too much
Maybe
like I said its the traits not actual stats
You pool and play around tb even more
Haste is king on ST but not to the point where crit or mastery is bad
What traits should I have that I dont have?
Crit and mastery are still super valuable
Lucid dreams is overvalued if anything
?
You'll still feel more starved with it then a flat stat boost
The minor is insane for sin, not sure what you mean
Lucid minor is valued highly for ST
Haste is king for ST.
heh
It doesn't replace a flat stat boost though. You can get lucky on your procs and not be GCD locked quite as long every once in a while
But it still feels slow
@civic palm O _o
You're deep in the feelycraft territory my man
Get your eyes outta here.
Haste is literally useless for a majority of a dungeon
ecks dee
If a flat stat boost was superior, worldvein would outperform it on st sim.. Even with 5 users it doesn't.
So how do you handle it on a boss fight when your vendetta falls off and your burst calms down and you're waiting seconds between abilities?
My damage drops like a rock
Your damage is going to drop by 20% when you lose the +20% DMG > _>
I haven't seen any 45k+ sim where worldvein gets close to lucid minor, so how is it untrue @rigid mango ?
No one sims with wv
Yeah no kidding mezerok
Because it's not a realistic sim
fff
What does the sim do wrong then? I took it at face value until now
But thanks to niche uses, no one cares about it
It doesn't, people just don't sim it
SIM does most things "wrong".
Wait wait I'm still very confused
Lucid major + wv minor is probably the highest simming thing in the game for sin
If ludoc outperformed a stat boost then why do you feel energy starved with low haste and lucid but not with haste and no lucid?
It may be true but from experience it sure doesnt feel like it
Well, I simmed myself and a couple others who postes here and it was at least 300 dps behind with a clf major and 5 wv users
Yeah you have to drop/gain a shit ton of haste.
It's not as simple as pick and replace
This is a primary issue with SIMs atm, your context is whack.
You need to understand why shit is not just take sims for facevalue
Or you're gonna have a baaad time
So I'd do more ST if I dropped more haste even though my issue is being energy starved?
Just because you're energy starved doesn't mean your dmg sucks @fervent jasper
or just sim the stat shift too, meaning enchants gems blah blah when you sim essences
Energy starve doesnt necessary means less dps
You just need to pool correctly
Will do, but I'm still not convinced that it will outperform clf + lucid
M+ ST is all around EP and TB poolinf
It doesn't, even with the right stats.
It might need very specific stats, but I'm fairly sure you can reach/surpass clf + lucid given super unrealistic circumstances in sims
clf 
Night 
Agi sims low and font probably devalues it even more :D
clf major was equal to blood major for me until the most recent apl change
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Same here, now it's 1k apart
pretty sure blood is better on the hard fights anyway
Myeh
i haven't simmed 2 blood with 2 vendettas vs 1 clf with 2 vendettas
no fight is hard for me
but i imagine the first one is better
6 second shield uptime 4head
Delerium realm bte
butmuhcrit
Btw*
What scenario would that be interesting for night?
just run Vision | Lucid 2head.
In that very specific scenario yes
vision lmao
nothanks
And windows where bosses need the danage more
Obviously
@civic palm your sims are low anyways are you slackin? O_o
Best case is if you can align the 2nd clf with another vendetta
O_o
It's there though
u can also blood the hulk and have it back up for the start of p2
And it feels so good
feels
o _o
:3

1:30min CDs thou
I think I prefer using it on cd instead of aligning

Another gcd that feels wasted too close to major cd's 🤢
guys i wanna do some heroic parse whoring, how do you do it properly on za qul? just normal vendetta usage or delay for the dmg increase on boss?
sub 1% gain either way
and you're better off lining it up with boss phases.
@sour wasp Take Vision, do Delirium, be OTL, go by yourself, kill everyone else, extend the fight as long as possible.
@marble elm any quick tips for zaqul?
Still trying to figure out how to play Ashvane.. CLF vs Blood and Font vs Pod
0.7% gain to hold on 5 min fight
@civic palm vision? O_o
Yeah well, get over it.
lmao
Because I've some baaaad news for you.
cd pull (or dont), first dmg amp, first echo, vendetta 2nd echo if vision minor, cloak when u come out of 1st delirium, cloak early into 2nd, cloak to prolong ur death in 3rd @stuck ravine
spit it then
O_o
boss
Also, Leeching Poison.
yea
and not CD.
take leeching
Leeching is broken there.
you CD the first amp?
yea
you dont do it during first delirium in p3?
Also depends on your raid comp. and who they are sending first/second/etc.
i just mean the first 3 circles on the ground when u hit 70%
im assuming u are taking the first kilrogg soaks and then going down for both echos
yea
is Vision of Demise viable on M Ashvane given she stays at a static health percent with the shield?
yeah u could cd there and it will still be up but idk which is more value
GL
in p2 yea
Demise is superbad
that shouldn't be too hard of a check
we lusted in p3 instead and didnt really have issues making that check
I think it still sims worse than most trinkets even on Execute in raidbots
pretty sure using CDs on first damage amp is more damage
cause you get stunned when coming out of first kilrogg soak
yea i would think so as well
and you lose uptime
we had 3 rogues that also saved coral for the 2nd delirium echo so it died before the fear echo
i dont even care anyways
im afk in phase 1 so
¯_(ツ)_/¯
you held ur coral until the 2nd echo from the start of the fight?
@past marten it does feel bad, was just wondering about ashvane with the static health most of the fight
i was just gonna hold it for 1st echo
i used on 2nd because we have vanish for the 1st
true dont have it for 2nd
but we had a demo lock on 2nd and we all had coral so it actually got destroyed
probably not gonna play vop next week
just not needed
use last set of cds on boss after 2nd echo
i also think i should have extracted at first damage amp
from the start of the fight got me 102% crit after extracting on 2nd but i was playing blood so kinda wasted
What rppm was coral on? And is it hasted or not?
Is the lucid major worth taking in m+ for boss fights or does the beam just do too much overall?
when you said cloak when u come out of 1st delirium, are you talking about first delirium in p4 or the first kilrogg one? @marble elm
first kilrogg one
u just die naturally in the realm and then cloak as soon as u get dispelled
you just eat the first tentacles that spawn right
on the first one u can just bleed out
