severe bough
#

not bad at all

lusty narwhal
#

Considering dropping jc for alch or something

#

This ring is pricey af

severe bough
#

it is

#

that's why i never say jc as viable for me

#

i would have not had enough gold to pull it off

sand otter
#

curious on some feedback for the fight tonight

fallow otter
#

im still using last tier jc ring

#

my ring luck sucks

#

so i had to make

lusty narwhal
#

Same

#

@sand otter first glance, your bleed uptime is insanely low

sand otter
#

okies

#

have to keep an eye on those more

lusty narwhal
#

Are you vanishing for Garrote damage with sub?

#

Your armoury says you’re running 2x SS

sand otter
#

i am yes, vanish and garrote, then back into rotation

#

and pooling at certain times when needed

#

ashvane was a little weird as i saved CDs for when her bubble was down

#

we killed her with 1 second left on her 2nd bubble

fallow otter
#

you want to double garrote

#

after vanish

#

been a long time since i have run SS and subt tho

#

and your opener with subt/ss should be gar>rup>gar it looks like you did gar>mut>tb>rup?

sand otter
#

gotcha

fallow otter
#

you been simming on raidbots? tried simming different traits and dropping SS?

woven hound
#

is it normal for lucid to sim ahead of life-force?

sand otter
#

Yeah i use raidbots, it comes out to that right now

fallow otter
#

mind if you PM me a sim link, i'm interested to compare for you

muted jacinth
#

weirdly low sim for that ilvl dondz

fallow otter
#

tweaked some gear for you

#

actually let me fix something further

woven hound
#

wow

#

that's the nicest thing anyone's done a class discord before

#

thanks so much

#

*for me anyway

fallow otter
#

can probably get more dps out of the gear you have for you, hang tight a min

#

results inc

woven hound
#

i always just blamed it on not having azerite traits

fallow otter
#

your traits are fine πŸ˜ƒ

steep obsidian
#

give me your coral you butt

#

πŸ˜›

#

cant get one of those things to save myself

#

and our ele got a friggin 450 to troll me with from m ashvane

woven hound
#

out of curiosity: was it the double dose that made crit so high for stat weights?

woven hound
#

amazing

fallow otter
#

run CLF/lucid

woven hound
#

thank you so so much

fallow otter
#

you are most welcome

steep obsidian
#

clf lucid combo too good less you have bote

fallow otter
#

even if you have bote

steep obsidian
#

well if you look at high logs its a mix

#

but yeah i agree

#

and situational

fallow otter
#

yup

#

and what the fight demands

#

good burst awesome consistent dmg or awesome burst good consistent dmg

woven hound
#

should i swap out the crit gems for haste as well?

#

or is that enough?

fallow otter
#

its only saying to regem gloves gem to haste

steep obsidian
#

do a sim for your statweights but there a breakpoint where crit and haste are about the same

#

and that is prollly it ^

woven hound
#

gotcha

steep obsidian
#

like if you change one gem the weights prolly swap

#

but the sim tells you to go with the highest sim

woven hound
#

yup, shoulda known the dude was thorough enough to include that πŸ˜›

steep obsidian
#

you need to get the benthic

#

badly

#

its dumb but non negotiable if you really want to min max 😦

fallow otter
#

hes got the 2 best pieces

#

probably currently rolling the other 2

#

but yeh, can get more dps getting the other 2

steep obsidian
#

maybe abberr belt for orgozoa too but yeh

fallow otter
#

the tank belt is really good

#

if you have that, you dont really need the abber one

woven hound
#

believe me, i'm actively trying to get the gloves

steep obsidian
#

man

woven hound
#

i don't even know how many it's been

steep obsidian
#

id even take a normal font like you have

#

i used up all my luck on the benthics i think

woeful minnow
#

man same

#

I can't get a weapon or a trinket

steep obsidian
#

same

woven hound
#

i've been bonus rolling ashvane/azshara normal and heroic every week

fallow otter
#

yeh normal font is still vgood

woeful minnow
#

but I have all the benthics

fallow otter
#

its good to start using it to learn when/where to use it in fights also

woven hound
#

is 10 secs before vendetta the norm?

fallow otter
#

rather than me regurgitate, check out #tc-updates latest post for that one

woven hound
#

cheers, thank you

steep obsidian
#

has anyone ever saved a vanish to try and game an inkpod crit with ma? seems so huge that might be worth the gamble at least on ashvane

fallow otter
#

MA only makes certain rogue skills crit, its not everything crit

weary lagoon
#

I sim higher with Subterfuge over MA...Killing me

fallow otter
#

but you do line up coral with the inkpod pop

steep obsidian
#

i didnt konw if ma affected inkpod

#

but reading tooltips is a thing yeh :\

fallow otter
#

@weary lagoon thats because you are running SS traits πŸ˜ƒ

steep obsidian
#

throw away worldvein is worthless on most fights

weary lagoon
#

I know but I have access to 3DD and I feel so energy starved

steep obsidian
#

maybe good on like 2 or 3 if lots use it

#

lucid better

weary lagoon
#

Pooling and falling asleep

#

RL calls for worldvein until more raiders have it

steep obsidian
#

run lucid and you wont have to pool πŸ˜›

#

or will barely need to

weary lagoon
#

that would be a dream,,,

steep obsidian
#

get the weak aura that shows the uptime and spouts it out to raid chat after the fight

#

and you can make the case as to how shit it is

weary lagoon
#

I like MA except for the pooling/lull in activity

steep obsidian
#

without having to check logs

#

or you will be able to see if its worth

#

i found tha even with like 10 peopel running it it sucked hard

weary lagoon
#

good advice. thx

#

only benefit from 4 shards at any given time

#

so I just need 4 people to run it so I can change it...lol

fallow otter
#

@weary lagoon i tweaked your gear, seeing if i can get some more dps for you

#

just waiting for result

weary lagoon
#

I'm game for any advice

fallow otter
#

little bit better

#

πŸ˜‰

weary lagoon
#

So haste over crit?

#

and not many fights are patchwerk,,,I feel like Im all over the place...lol

steep obsidian
#

sim for multi targets and see what it says in the stat weights?

#

gems are pretty cheap though or be a jc and just swap out gems for dungeons with the tools of the trade thing

fallow otter
#

lots of fights are pretty patchwerk for melee

near coyote
#

who do you guys usually have in the delerium realm on zaqul in your teams?

#

what specs i mean

rigid mango
#

Just a bunch of spriest, fire mages, boomiea and hunters

weary lagoon
#

thx so much Stunkei

#

and Sadbod

harsh goblet
#

heeeeeelp

#

I have to use font and razor coral

fallow otter
#

have a read of latest blurb

harsh goblet
#

@fallow otter ty

sharp moss
rigid mango
#

You've just linked the frontpage

#

Do a sim of top gear, link it and I can fuck around with it

rigid mango
#

You have no benthic, your trinkets are meh, your weapons are bad, you lack sockets and your azerite needs improvement on ilvl, also higher lvl essences

steep obsidian
#

old main stat gem is just lazy and cheap and bad

#

the new gems are nothing

#

put one in

cobalt gyro
#

kraken's eye aren't entirely useless but ya definitely use a leviathan's if you're gonna do a main stat gem

past ridge
#

just use both Kraken and Leviathan at the same time for 200 Agi

fallow otter
#

i was doing this for a while until switching to clf/lucid and haste becoming more important

elfin fossil
#

Hey, what does the ravenholdt guide mean with 'master assassin talented in the new way'?

rigid mango
#

the newer way

#

The diff is small, do the opener as you want

elfin fossil
#

allright

rigid mango
#

You wont see the diff in the end, just feel it

haughty flame
#

morning all, if i just recently swapped to my rogue - what benthic gear should i aim for first bracer or gloves

fallow otter
#

boots

#

boots>tankbelt=bracers>gloves imo

haughty flame
#

really O.o

fallow otter
#

gl with gambles

haughty flame
#

i thot bracers and gloves are much better than the other 2

fallow otter
#

i hope you get a hole asap πŸ˜ƒ

#

well it also depends on what you are replacing

nimble tartan
#

boots>bracers,gloves>>>belt yw bro

haughty flame
#

oki tyty

fallow otter
#

@nimble tartan why belt last?

#

iyo

nimble tartan
#

the other benthics do more damage compared to phys belt usually

fallow otter
#

thats not true

haughty flame
#

is there no like

#

guide where ppl have simmed etc.

fallow otter
#

we all sim constantly

harsh sphinx
#

some sim more than they play

nimble tartan
#

)

haughty flame
#

but the general consence is boots > bracer ?

fallow otter
#

assuming what you are replacing is equal in both slots then yes

#

i can sim your toon in droptimizer if you want to know a very specific answer

haughty flame
#

that would be great

#

lemme just relog

#

@fallow otter appreciate it

fallow otter
#

i just average them out as about 1% each mostly, this is an ashvane kill of mine

steep obsidian
#

i probably wouldnt prio upgrading boots the first as the other procs scale on ilvl

haughty flame
#

ignore my essences

fallow otter
#

conch is belt, frost is bracers, tidal is gloves

haughty flame
#

ok

fallow otter
#

boots>the rest either way

haughty flame
#

@fallow otter u got my string ye

fallow otter
#

yeh simming it

haughty flame
#

tyty

haughty flame
#

πŸ˜„

#

so bracer > boot

fallow otter
#

but yeh as we said boots>bracer>gloves

haughty flame
#

oki ty

#

boots on second token

#

leggoo

fallow otter
#

omy thats lucky

#

gratz

leaden bloom
#

what do I need to add to simc to sim for Aberrations

#

?

steep obsidian
#

i can check if somoneone doesnt answer in the next min

#

If you want to sim with the boss being an aberration then add this to the APL box under the settings: target_race=aberration

#

is that in the pins maybe i cant read or am dumb

#

probably the both

fallow otter
#

its in pins yup πŸ˜ƒ

steep obsidian
#

hurr durr

#

oh there it is

#

Hey guys! I was wondering, when using Ashvane's Razor Coral, how many stacks should I reuse the trinket? Cheers

civic palm
nocturne tinsel
#

you basically want to use coral when it lines up with your vendetta

#

or if its near the end of a fight and you wont get vendetta again

stable copper
#

Okay, thanks alot

cloud lichen
#

So basically, you want to re use it the 2nd vendetta?

#

Cause with the first if u are lucky you have like 1 or 2 stacks, right?

rigid mango
#

You don't use it with the4 first

#

you just apply it for the stacks

#

and use it with the 2nd

cloud lichen
#

Perfect thanks

signal summit
#

gonna do some blood of the enemy farm later if some1 wanna jkoin

rigid mango
signal summit
#

oh sry i thought i clicked it

haughty flame
#

do u guys sim at nightly or weekly

solid nova
#

Nightly is always the most up to date

civic palm
#

The only reason to not use Nightly is if it introduced a bug of some kind.

upbeat geode
#

a reason not to use nightly is, there may be bugs we dont know about

civic palm
#

Might as well never use it then.

#

3head.

calm wedge
#

Hey boys, my guild and me are currently trying to take down lady ashvane mythic. Has anyone already tried to measure the dps increase / decrease of Venomous Wounds when you apply your bleeds on briny bubbles ?

#

Is it worth it ?

civic palm
#

Not worth if it's taking you off of the boss and the bleeds do not last for more than 30% of their duration.

#

Distance is also a large consideration.

calm wedge
#

distance isn't really a problem considering its really close to the boss

#

but i mean u trade 5cb for 150energy

civic palm
#

If that's the case then everything else is cleaving hard enough that I can't imagine it would be worth the time.

calm wedge
#

(thats the problem)

civic palm
#

SIN is a single target spec without traits to make us a really bad single target spec.

upbeat geode
#

the first bubbles line up with toxic blade, giving you max energy in the TB window, it looks good but didnt sim or check yet.

verbal stirrup
#

hey guys, can rogues avoid getting bubbled on ashvane with cloak or vanish?

upbeat geode
#

cloak yes

verbal stirrup
#

ty

#

and have to cloak before it goes out yeah, does cloak also remove the aoe circle around you or do you have to be away from people, just wont hit you?

#

akin to bubble or turtle

upbeat geode
#

note, the people arround you still get bubbled so stand on the other bubbles

verbal stirrup
#

yeah perfect ty

placid root
#

What does clf stand for? cruicible of flames?

solid nova
#

Condensed Life Force

placid root
#

Oooh

#

Ok ty

feral hedge
bronze kelp
#

Instead of what?

feral hedge
#

instead of upgrading waist

slate moat
#

hey guys, i really need your help, i looked @ ravenholdt side and icy vains, which is the best? need help for my rogue (prefering german, if some germans here)

winter moss
#

i wrote down the guide in german on ravenholdt

#

you might check out this one

#

!guide

prisma monolithBOT
slate moat
#

perfect, this is the better one than icy? πŸ˜„

winter moss
#

im not here to give subjective opinions (ye it is)

slate moat
#

πŸ˜„ πŸ˜„

#

thanks a lot ^^

winter moss
#

weak does too? ANGERY

bronze kelp
#

@feral hedge sim if the other pieces on a lower ilvl are an upgrade for you. But as u should try to get them with a socket, it could cost u tons of pearls

winter moss
#

i mean it depends on what you are looking for

#

general idea of the spec probably both are fine.
if you want some deeper rooted knowledge id go to discord anyway
im just a fanboi

dim yacht
#

does toxic blade affect damage from dribbling inkpod?

rigid mango
#

nope

#

TB is whitelisted

dim yacht
#

good to know, ty

azure basalt
#

on the webpage for the assa guide it says "Master assassin talented new/old way" and shows different openers

rigid mango
#

New one is slight upgrade

#

You wont feel diff.

#

We're talking like, 10 dps diff

azure basalt
#

is that just because of us having higher stats

#

ok

rigid mango
#

It's because it uses the MA window a bit better

#

but in the end of combat, it wont be the diff ever

wispy marsh
#

Any reason in particular why my Outlaw set sims higher than my Sin set? Both are roughly the same ilvl, and my stat prio for sin doesn't look half bad

#

Also have BiS trinkets for Sin as well

lethal heart
#

what traits do you have

#

for both specs

#

outlaw sims ok this tier

#

especially if you have good azerite

#

and its very easy to get good azerite

unkempt karma
#

What azerite combinations are people using for m+ ?

wispy marsh
#

double ace, double dead, 1 bb, 1 wits
2 ttk, 2 np, 1 dd, 1 loyal

lethal heart
#

your outlaw azerite is bis/close to bis

#

your assa azerite is similar to what i use

#

and its same for me, outlaw sims a little bit higher

#

also keep in mind outlaw gets big boost for st

wispy marsh
#

When you play it does it do more or do you feel sin does more damage?

lethal heart
#

if you have diver's folly behemoth weapon/underrot weapons

bleak spoke
#

How much do you sim for in st sebek

lethal heart
#

assa doesnt have any broken weapon effect they can use

wispy marsh
#

Do have double underrots

lethal heart
#

idk around 46,5 in both specs

#

depending what essences i use

#

full pad sims with worldvein and shit i could probably get 47k in both specs

#

but yea i play bote here or there which doesnt sim highest but its just useful

#

depends on what fight really

bleak spoke
#

Man they should have made the sivara dagger do the shiver venom thing that the crossbow and pole arm do

lethal heart
#

like on zaqul assa is gonna do more because burst damage is more rewarded

#

likewise on court

#

you dont have 100% boss uptime hence assa wins there aswell

#

and you get some small multidot value here or there aswell ofc

#

but not much really

bleak spoke
#

Yeh one thing that feels super annoying about outlaw in raid is that

lethal heart
#

but on ashvane

#

i easily beat other rogue from my guild even on st

bleak spoke
#

When it slows down it feels miserable

lethal heart
#

(boss damage)

bleak spoke
#

Yeh

wispy marsh
#

Jusst trying to figure out if it's worth to switch from outlaw to sin

lethal heart
#

the only fight where you must play assa is zaqul

#

i think

wispy marsh
#

Fixing to push Mythic Ashvane with guild and want to do what's going to benefit us the most

lethal heart
#

rest of the fights you can play w/e you prefer

bleak spoke
#

What about that Chinese outlaw log on zaqul

lethal heart
#

assa and outlaw st this tier is pretty much equal

#

ye they do different jobs than assa roguie

#

they are there to kill the adds

#

mots people go for st and do delirium realm memes

bleak spoke
#

Does delirium even benefit us that much compared to other classes

scarlet sequoia
#

ofc

lethal heart
#

well its more of

scarlet sequoia
#

being able to spam mutilate is quite big

bleak spoke
#

Feels like the guaranteed 1s global really makes it less strong

lethal heart
#

is there any other class/spec that can survive that long there

#

because if you send in shaman for example

#

he has to go out

#

so much faster

mighty elm
#

its very big , especially when youre running vision on that fight

lethal heart
#

because no immunity

wispy marsh
#

Leech poison too good

lethal heart
#

well yo u run rogues into delirium 3 and 4

#

because there is add

#

that is huge dps check

#

or well maybe not huge

#

but it just is a dps check

#

and proably rogue/fire mage is best

#

but fire mage would kill other people in delirium

#

because you can hit other people in delirium

bleak spoke
#

But cloak yeah

lethal heart
#

so if you send in mage

rigid mango
#

ignite me GachiFire

lethal heart
#

he will rape everyone

#

with ignite πŸ˜„

#

mage would be better

#

than assa

#

if not for that

#

because mage burst is bigger than assa burst

bleak spoke
#

Yeah and also 2 mins

#

With zaqul do you miss timings without vop minor

mighty elm
#

ye

lethal heart
#

yes

#

you must play vision

#

to have cds for both 3rd and 4th delirium

rigid mango
#

I think saryero played iwthout it?

lethal heart
#

you dont have to send always rogues in

#

to 3rd and 4th

#

you can have different people

#

depends on roster

rigid mango
#

Nah you don't ye

lethal heart
#

its just easiest right

mighty elm
#

tbh running vision felt abit poitless for me πŸ˜› , we had 2 wlocks that came in and blaaaasted the add, they could 3 man it

scarlet sequoia
#

i dont even get sent in 😭

lethal heart
#

ye

#

demo lock is good aswell

bleak spoke
#

Probably fury warrior too?

rigid mango
#

Tbh I see fuckall people run it on top logs, but I suppose it's not for top logs you run that shit so

lethal heart
#

fury warrior idk

#

i think you'd rather have fury in fear

bleak spoke
#

Hmm what other 1:30 classes are there

lethal heart
#

padding adds

rigid mango
#

Any of the hunters?

mighty elm
#

idk if fury is good πŸ˜› , when i overslept they put in a fury warr instead and it failed every time

lethal heart
#

but probably would work

bleak spoke
#

Hunters with resets on aspect ig

lethal heart
#

rogue is amazing for that tho

#

leeching poison is really good aswell

bleak spoke
#

Yeah vendetta is a really stable cd

lethal heart
#

ye vendetta is very strong

#

especially if you play NP

rigid mango
#

Yeah like, everyone runs it

lethal heart
#

and it scales with haste

rigid mango
#

LP, that is

lethal heart
#

its pretty good

#

multiple nps*

rigid mango
#

Isn't sin amongs the highest burst classes in window?

lethal heart
#

because 1 is kind of a must anyway

#

yes

#

it is 2nd best i think

#

after fire mage

rigid mango
#

hm

lethal heart
#

or maybe frost dk can give them a run

mighty elm
bleak spoke
#

I think when my guild gets to zaqul I’ll probs be 65 neck and it’ll feel real nice

lethal heart
#

or a ret pala

mighty elm
#

that echo dps

lethal heart
#

dont play with frost dk/ret pala myself

#

but i know their burst can be insane

rigid mango
#

I play with a udk

lethal heart
#

in my guild its only fire mage that can outburst me

#

when i play assa

bleak spoke
#

Sebek don’t you play with a surv hunter

lethal heart
#

yes

#

she goes in

rigid mango
#

Same, for us it's 3x sin and a firemage

#

top

lethal heart
#

survival is really fucking good there aswell

rigid mango
#

πŸ˜„

lethal heart
#

in delirium

bleak spoke
#

Yeah cuz haste right

lethal heart
#

survival stat weight is like

#

her haste value is like

#

9

bleak spoke
#

Loool

rigid mango
lethal heart
#

and survival has like

rigid mango
#

nty

lethal heart
#

build in 10% leech

#

from pet

#

but i dont thnik survival has as high burst potential

#

but because you can stay so long as survival because of your sustain healing

#

and your sustain is just so good

bleak spoke
#

It’s more sustained damage on that cd that you extend innit

lethal heart
#

ye

#

exactly

rigid mango
#

Do HoT's get saved over transfering into realm?

lethal heart
#

but still does absurd damage

rigid mango
#

or do they all get taken off?

bleak spoke
#

So if you can live long enough then you pop off

lethal heart
#

dont know man

rigid mango
#

I never go in SucksMan

lethal heart
#

dont play with resto druid πŸ˜„

#

we run

rigid mango
#

Nah just thinking about literally anything

lethal heart
#

double holy pala 1 disc 1 resto

rigid mango
#

We wont run rdruid I don't think either

lethal heart
#

but ye didnt pay attention

rigid mango
#

we will run 2hpala 2rshaman 1 disc

#

Probs

bleak spoke
#

When you have vop minor what major do you even take

rigid mango
#

Blood

#

1.5 cd burst

lethal heart
#

you play blood

#

on that fight

bleak spoke
#

Oh okay I guess that lines good yeh

lethal heart
#

it doesnt make any sense to play lucid

rigid mango
#

Lucid is useless downstairs

#

ur GCD locked anyways right?

lethal heart
#

beause you get haste from delirium

#

ye

#

y

#

you are energy capped

bleak spoke
#

Makes up for some of the weirdness with vanish not lining I suppose too

rigid mango
#

Soemone was talking lucid major

#

for leech

lethal heart
#

nah

#

pretty sure if you are 65 neck

#

you run conflict as 3rd minor

bleak spoke
#

For the versa buff?

lethal heart
#

ye

rigid mango
#

Conflict HYPERDANSGAMEW

lethal heart
#

its free vers

#

350 vers or sth

rigid mango
#

You don't think flames?

lethal heart
#

or maybe that

#

but if it sims same

#

there is no point playing flame

#

because vers gives you a little bit of extra surv on top of damage

bleak spoke
#

Versa beats everything if it sims the same yeah

rigid mango
#

My god discord is shitting itself

#

Does teh PPM work w haste
w flame?
the minor that is.

lethal heart
#

i have no idefa

rigid mango
#

bec if it works w haste downstairs on zaq

#

or CLF minor for zaq

#

I know that the minor is affected by haste

bleak spoke
#

Wait why not purification minor

#

It’s a damage proc that’s strong vs aberrations innit

#

Also the proc heals you

rigid mango
bleak spoke
#

Man that actually sounds pretty good

rigid mango
#

I suppose that's good for zaq aye

#

healing πŸ‘€

bleak spoke
#

Like bote major and vop minor are locked in yeah

warm parcel
rigid mango
#

Like, on zaq do you vial on cd or

#

Weak don't make me google shit

#

I'm here to ask easily answered questions towards people who know out of pure laziness

mighty elm
#

vial on cd but not when full on hp i guess

rigid mango
#

Aye makes sense

#

I suppose u save tonic + hs for it too?

mighty elm
#

if you are goin 1st delerium and you stay still next phase, i found it be best to cloak at 7 stacks

rigid mango
#

how long are u in there for

#

time wise

mighty elm
#

i saved HS/pot for last phase

#

can check

#

which one, the first one?

rigid mango
#

All of them

#

The ones you're in, anyways

mighty elm
#

well the first one with add you wanna come out when fear realm comes out

#

1st one for 1min(till boss phases)

rigid mango
mighty elm
#

last one for 1min 10 sec

rigid mango
#

hm aight

mighty elm
#

looking back at it, mages came in and smacked me

bleak spoke
#

Yikes haha

rigid mango
#

Our spriest legit solod our mage out because he talked smack before

mighty elm
#

πŸ‘

rigid mango
#

mid pull all I hear is screaming

#

and mage slamming his desk

bleak spoke
#

Man next time play subterfuge ss sneak in and vanish garrote the casters

rigid mango
bleak spoke
#

Wait I’m 100% pvping someone to death next time I go hc

mighty elm
#

last 20 sec in there 😦

rigid mango
bleak spoke
#

Wait they just

#

Meteored on you

mighty elm
#

well yeah πŸ˜›

near python
#

is that delirium 4 or 5

mighty elm
#

we enter 4th, then mages come in 5th

rigid mango
#

Our mage yesterday

bleak spoke
#

Actually rekt

mighty elm
#

actaully wlocks smacked us harder monkaS

#

thats from entry

rigid mango
#

440k hand

mighty elm
bleak spoke
#

Man that is many soul conduit procs

#

Looks like it was raining imps down there

near python
#

dno you should probably leave 4th after a bit

mighty elm
#

we couldnt

near python
#

hm?

mighty elm
#

disc usually suicides there and CRs then dispells us

#

but we had no CRs left

near python
#

uhh

#

you kill 2nd add, then wait for 2nd slam after add dies, cloak stacks and leave?

#

On my kill I left the realm no stacks, didnt die

mighty elm
#

i mean , youd do less dmg if u can stay till boss dies?

near python
#

the damage check is really not tight, there is no reason to try to stay down, and you can always just jump into the delirium 5 if u need. but if you send mages down there, it's just suicide anyways

#

p4 is control, not damage burn

mighty elm
#

no i know its not tight, but if you can survive till boss is dead there is no point in leaving

near python
#

Seems like a risk for little gain. But you can probably just stay down till Delirium 5, cloak and leave.

Hey guys i was wondering about is there too much haste i can have as a rogue. Im pretty new to rogue and i am around 35% haste should i be looking for lower than that?

#

i have 30% crit 34% haste 38% mastery atm

signal summit
#

Sim and look at ur stat weights

rigid mango
#

35% haste is a lot.

#

Alll of thos enumbers seem really high though

proven cedar
solid nova
#

but he has TTK.

#

Answered it yourself

proven cedar
#

is it rly that big though?

#

33% extra dmg pr. envenom seems mega

maiden siren
#

you have a 440 weapon, hes got a 450 and TTK

faint harness
#

there are other issues than envenoms, potentially

#

or why did you do like 100 less envenoms than him

proven cedar
#

it's over 22 pulls

faint harness
#

are you dying on ashvane?

proven cedar
#

he usually gets off like 2-3 more than me pr. fight and I suck at clicking Feint

faint harness
#

he used feint once

#

and you 0

royal lantern
#

clicking feint is maybe a problem too

faint harness
proven cedar
#

ah, didnt realize

#

maybe I just stand in more shit then

faint harness
#

yea you're almost doubling his upsurge hits

#

which is like the only thing that should be close to killing you no ashvane

brave gyro
#

Guys, just came back to the game since a few months. Is there a list I can check for what bentic gear i should be going for?

proven cedar
#

but ye, I realize that he's playing more optimal than me, we were just discussing the particular detail yesterday

#

think u answered it quite well though

#

thx

potent zinc
#

@brave gyro in pins at the top

proven cedar
#

is the consensus that you go for 1 TTK atm or just go for NP+DD?

clever shadow
#

I havn't been able to get a blue parse on ashvane yet.. this guys number is really good geeze

brave gyro
#

@potent zinc Thank you friend. Off to grinding i go i guess πŸ˜›

potent zinc
#

enjoy πŸ˜ƒ

maiden siren
#

Standing in upsurge is not about being optimal. Thats just failing mechanics

faint harness
#

The raid pieces have TTK on them

clever shadow
#

thats for sure

faint harness
#

its not a matter of choice for me

proven cedar
#

v true

faint harness
#

They dont have DD nor NP and they have TTK, so thats whats simming the highest

clever shadow
#

hmm I'm running 3x DD and 1 NP with 1 TTK .. I just kinda defaulted toa triple DD setup.. maybe thats incorrect

proven cedar
#

idk

faint harness
#

DD is really good

proven cedar
#

my DD does about 1,2m on an average Ashvane wipe

bleak spoke
#

DD is really good yeah

faint harness
#

Like i would run 3x DD if i could

#

But... nope

proven cedar
#

but if TTK bumps your envenom by 10k dmg/cast

#

and you have 60 casts

royal lantern
#

if you use 3xDD, DD will do more dmg then mutilate itself on most pulls sooo...yeha its stronk

faint harness
#

you cant easily compare crit numbers on ashvane

#

since crits on absorbs doesnt count

bleak spoke
#

but your gear isn't the issue @proven cedar

faint harness
#

and if he crits more than you thats also a thing

bleak spoke
#

this is the issue

royal lantern
#

thats a weird opener

faint harness
#

where is vanish

bleak spoke
#

he's playing a shrouded

proven cedar
#

im playing SC

faint harness
bleak spoke
#

whcih arguably makes that even worse

faint harness
#

you're also refreshing garrote after 14 seconds

royal lantern
#

but why use tb, just too spam non-envenom buffed mutilates then

faint harness
#

removing the buffed

#

also did you bind coral to rupture?

bleak spoke
proven cedar
#

coral isnt bound to rupture

#

just clicked it same time

#

cuz it's not on GCD

faint harness
#

yy

#

just looked like it was exactly on the milisecond

proven cedar
#

ye doubt that WCLogs is that precise tbf

faint harness
#

is there no way to get rid of the SS

proven cedar
#

I have a 430 DD+UT piece

bleak spoke
#

wclogs is the most precise

proven cedar
#

so ye

faint harness
#

whats the other trait on the item

proven cedar
#

ye @bleak spoke just talking about the exact timing of my rupture/coral

faint harness
#

SS and?

proven cedar
#

DD

#

445 with DD, SS, elemental whirl

faint harness
#

So you have deliberately picked SS over DD?

proven cedar
#

or 435 with DD+UT

faint harness
#

No i mean

#

what is the SS competing with

bleak spoke
#

ss is probably not the play on ashvane

faint harness
#

i mean you can abuse it a bit on the brinys

proven cedar
#

alternative is filthy transfusion

bleak spoke
#

yep

#

sim it

faint harness
#

I feel like MA is the play this tier

proven cedar
#

ye this is my highest DPS setup tbh

faint harness
#

cus of the many burst trinkets

bleak spoke
#

yeah the windows are super defined

faint harness
#

Even if SS sims slightly higher i wouldnt play it

#

cus fuck subterfuge

proven cedar
#

ye feels awful

bleak spoke
#

i'd say maybe there's 1 fight i'd consider ss subt on

faint harness
#

i would play outlaw on that fight

proven cedar
#

just that UT isnt worth alot DPS-wise on ashvane cuz it's always procced

bleak spoke
#

man why would you play outlaw on queen's court man

proven cedar
#

SS is good for Court no?

faint harness
#

SS on queens court monkaS

#

the bosses are tanked like 40 yards away from eachother, at least for us

#

Gotta sprint + shadowstep to even apply that shit

bleak spoke
#

100% you can get the multidot with vanish and sprint step

#

without losing more than 1 global

faint harness
#

i guess it depends on what is lost

clever shadow
#

its also easy enough to apply them as a drive by when tanks switch, but I don't think its enough for subt

faint harness
#

for me it would be loyal to the end

bleak spoke
#

i think if the timers line okay i play ss on that fight

#

otherwise i play ma

#

i enjoy 2t sin alot

faint harness
#

feels like a chore to me 4Head

#

i enjoy the huge burst windows

#

thats fun

bleak spoke
#

play exsang then 4Head

faint harness
#

I did in uldir actually

#

good times

bleak spoke
#

yeah but it was good in uldir

faint harness
#

i like that exsang snapshots haste

#

wish our other bleeds did too

bleak spoke
#

but then again

#

so was shrouded haha

#

that'd be cool

#

i'm kinda getting tired of legit every new upgrade this tier being a new window to play around

#

that's like

#

reoccurring

faint harness
#

oh yea

#

definitely

#

they added 3 sequences to look for

#

in 2 weeks

#

essence usage, font timings, coral usage

bleak spoke
#

i think double dose played so pleasantly in bod cuz we still didn't have much haste/e regen

#

so tb windows that were set up properly were rewarding

faint harness
#

they still are to me

#

maybe its placebo

bleak spoke
#

man i feel like i don't even get punished for rotational errors

#

like 1/2 the time

#

cuz of lucid procs

faint harness
#

True

#

I find myself fucking up

#

killing the boss

#

and get good logs 4Head

bleak spoke
#

literally that

#

like

royal lantern
#

feels so weird that sometimes you just play normaly, dont even reserve energy, and sit at 114

clever shadow
#

as sin..on a fight like Zaquil are you guys typically asked to break from boss to dps summoners? (all 3).. I seem to be losing massive dps running around the room for these adds.

bleak spoke
#

i have 99s where i refresh ruptures in tbs and all manners of unsavory garbage

royal lantern
#

tell your rl

faint harness
#

Same rtb

#

feels filthy

royal lantern
#

too NOT send melee dps into the fear realm lol

bleak spoke
#

and it's like if i had a cast sequence like that in bod i would actually had been so mad

royal lantern
#

thats like, he wants everyone too suffer

clever shadow
#

yeah .. we are a small raid typically 12-13

faint harness
#

I tunnel boss on zaqul heroic, havent done mythic prog yet

bleak spoke
#

because that sort of thing would make you drop 10 ranks

royal lantern
#

you need like 3 ranged people

clever shadow
#

so not alot of choice, but then get asked why my numbers are in green parses

bleak spoke
#

but now it's like lmao just get lucky xd

faint harness
#

yep

bleak spoke
#

still better than that week at the start of this tier i had to play lucid major

#

my god

royal lantern
#

lets you do something that REALLY fucks your dps on a fight where padding rules the logs

bleak spoke
#

you have more casts

faint harness
#

my old brain is overloaded with all the shit i need to keep track off tho

royal lantern
#

complains about green logs

bleak spoke
#

than literally anyone else in the raid

#

with lucid major it's aids

#

i think at some point i filled every global for over a minute on pull

faint harness
#

I never played with lucid major personally, had bote rank 3 first week

royal lantern
#

same lel

sudden ocean
#

Lucid major peophammer

bleak spoke
#

man you have no idea what sort of bullshit you didn't have to deal with

clever shadow
#

yeah we have an insane shaman and hunter who post purples 100%

faint harness
#

I am happy i didnt have to 4Head

royal lantern
#

why is lifeforce better then bote pepehands

faint harness
royal lantern
#

lifeforce feels so crappy too use

#

blood actually feels good

faint harness
#

lifeforce is legit the most boring essence in the game

#

fire and forget

royal lantern
#

blood rank4 cast is legit the best thing in the game

faint harness
#

what does it look like monkaHmm

royal lantern
#

a bit like a azerite holy nova

#

but there is a fking choir in the background for the 5seconds

faint harness
#

I only have visions rank 4, never bothered getting the 50k honor for rank 4 bote

royal lantern
#

you feel like god in those 5seconds where you do your 120k envenom crits

bleak spoke
#

man i want rank 4

#

i think next week i grind

faint harness
#

is it bg wek

#

week

bleak spoke
#

yeah

faint harness
#

Might do it

#

50k is done in what, 3-4 days

royal lantern
#

its not loud or something, but it feels sooo good

bleak spoke
#

man i did the last 27k for bote in one night

cobalt gyro
#

Sub i got bis pvp azerite at least so we meme

bleak spoke
#

two weeks ago

faint harness
royal lantern
#

@clever shadow 🀷 zaqul is a 100%padfight for logs

bleak spoke
#

i played marked for death blade rush outlaw and slapped people

royal lantern
#

if you want good logs on him

#

use m+ aoe gear

#

only attack adds

bleak spoke
#

for 14 hours

#

i wanted to die

royal lantern
#

go into delirium realm

#

otherwise you wont get good logs

cobalt gyro
#

I wanna try purification during bgs and see if i can proc an instakill

bleak spoke
#

there's no way l0l

clever shadow
#

yeah my shaman friends parse is a 47k with top dmg in azerite laser.. with the little things being #2 dmg, I have no dmg on those, 96% on boss at 29k

bleak spoke
#

i mean it just sounds like your raid doesn't understand what you should be doing

clever shadow
#

yes that could be

royal lantern
#

^

cobalt gyro
#

^

bleak spoke
#

which is probably tunneling the boss

#

and ignoring adds that aren't literally within melee range

#

and ignoring most of those too

royal lantern
#

you dont need too be a genius at the game too see the fight, and understand that melee into fear realm is...not great

clever shadow
#

ok thanks.. I've been feeling like shit about my numbers and I'm asked to do alot of things that don't involve tunneling boss

bleak spoke
#

man i actually don't have the faintest idea how half the realms on zaqul even work

#

i just know there's the haste one i'm not allowed to go into on hc

faint harness
#

you do more dmg in orange realm

#

(:

bleak spoke
#

and the one that everyone screams for everyone to go into

royal lantern
#

i mean, normal realm is kill boss,cleave adds

bleak spoke
#

with extra action button

royal lantern
#

fear is kill castere

bleak spoke
#

man is that why my parses are depleted

faint harness
#

I went into delirium on our HC funrun this week, but i used cds on pull so i had nothing and it was very underwhelming

royal lantern
#

delirium is kill boss,cleave adds, but now you have a safe #1-#3 dps spot

bleak spoke
#

i go inside and slap the boss

#

and i'm always slow to leave

royal lantern
#

delirium is underwhelming as rogue in general

bleak spoke
#

no not delirium

#

the other one

royal lantern
#

its too much haste, you dont really benefit from it

clever shadow
#

hysteria

#

you overcap alot in hysteria

royal lantern
#

spriest scale endless with haste cus of how insanity works

faint harness
#

yea i dunno, didnt feel anything

royal lantern
#

sin rogue simply attacks faster, cus you are at full energy all the time

faint harness
#

meanwhile spriest doing 120k dps 4Head

bleak spoke
#

cuz i feel like i'm flying on that fight up until i have to go to places

#

and then i don't feel like i'm flying anymore

royal lantern
#

spriest in delirium is so stupid lel, they could legit play surrender2madness

faint harness
#

just dont go places

bleak spoke
#

oh shit

#

you right

#

honestly they won't even fucking notice

#

lmao

faint harness
#

nope

bleak spoke
#

i'm honestly going to have to sit down and read up on that fight

#

but i don't think my guild progs it on M for at least another week

clever shadow
#

we have not killed it on heroic yet

faint harness
#

if im not in delirium on that boss i legit tunnel boss until its dead

#

i sit on it like a leech

clever shadow
#

last night we wiped for a while with the new tether dmg lol

bleak spoke
#

oh yeah they changed that

#

so ppl couldn't 1 tank it

clever shadow
#

yeah our monk add tank was getting rofl'd all night

zinc furnace
#

Gentlemen, did you have a chance test crucible of flame R3 in M+s? Ive seen mediocre sims on herodmg, but wonder how it goes on practice. Dont have BOTE and never will have time to get R3 anyway

bleak spoke
#

i wouldn't play crucible in m+ for assa

#

you're already locked on globals after you set up your dots

zinc furnace
#

The alternative for me is R3 iris or just leave aoe to rest of group and go with R3 guardian...

bleak spoke
#

iris soudns like the best option

warm sable
#

Whats opener with Font and Life Force essence

#

MA ofc

cobalt pelican
#

it's a mystery

real bay
#

font before pull and same as always

bright smelt
#

thats a lot of haste

tropic ocean
#

nice

steep obsidian
#

oh the proc actually scales with ilvl too?

#

hmm i never noticed that

bright smelt
#

yah didnt know that either, just thought it was a static number

prisma monolithBOT
upbeat geode
#

My second vanish comes off cd 6-8 sec before tb, do you guys wait with vanish untill that tb window?

faint harness
#

In 95% of cases yes

cobalt pelican
#

as long as it's still inside vendetta yeah

#

i'd think over the course of a fight even under the weird circumstances you lose 1 vanish the tb value would probably be pretty close

upbeat geode
#

yea its well within vendetta

faint harness
#

I dont think ive lost a vanish to doing that yet

upbeat geode
#

push do you tb before or after the vanish?

faint harness
#

Before

#

I do env-mut-env in ma window

upbeat geode
#

thanks!

dark crag
#

Vanish/vend will never come off cd with tb even if you use all 3 together. Tb has 25 sec cd, vend/vanish 2 min. Do the math

#

5Γ—25=125

upbeat geode
#

yes, so the question was is it worth to wait 5 sec with vanish

strange python
#

!benthic

#

Bad discord

upbeat geode
dark crag
#

If the boss dies the next 5 sec, no. Else yes

strange python
#

Ok looked at pins for benthic didn’t see which item is first prio, can u tell?

vapid scarab
#

Boot

strange python
#

Ok ty

vapid scarab
#

You could also simply do a droptimizer sim

strange python
#

Would take longer than asking

#
  • im on mobile
upbeat geode
#

its probably boots first, i would sim the other 2

vapid scarab
#

Would also be more accurate

solid nova
#

Depends whats in your other slots

#

I took boots first

#

Then fished for bracers

strange python
#

I think all my benthic slots are 440 or 435 not sure atm

#

What’s even the overall dps gain in say 4 benthics 420 vs 4 440s?

vapid scarab
faint harness
#

yuge

strange python
#

Cant now

vapid scarab
#

So do it later

strange python
#

I don’t need accurate numbers

#

Just an estimation

ornate meteor
#

Then later?

vapid scarab
#

Okay

#

1000000 dps

strange python
#

..

vapid scarab
#

You said u didn’t need accurate numbers

strange python
#

But I said estimation

vapid scarab
#

Right, there’s my inaccurate estimation

upbeat geode
#

hes just not that good at esimating, thats why we sim

vapid scarab
#

Hope it helped

real bay
#

my 455 belt sims 82dps less than 420 benthic socket. a 440 is much worse

strange python
#

That’s not an estimation that’s a troll answer. I mean just imagine one has 440 overall with good traits and nice stats nothing extreme or off and then changes the 440s to 420 benthics

#

Like, do I gain 1k dps or more towards 5

#

Because I won’t farm them for 1kπŸ˜…

unkempt karma
#

Dont need to farm. Do dailies and roll, be lucky or not

#

thats what I did, with only one char as main. And I got 3 parts with a socket. Boots, waist, and puffer wrists

vapid scarab
#

Farm or forever be lesser than everyone who did

idle ember
#

Farmed on 6 120s for 2+ weeks every. single. day. and never got socketed boots. One night with 38 sets to click I even got every single other combination except the crit ones with a socket. After that I'm content with being lesser then everyone else.

strange python
#

@idle ember that’s what I hate about 8.2 when playing a dps class, such bs

#

Im more and more maining my tank atm tbh because of that

idle ember
#

Yep. Toss in the fact I've gotten 440 of every trinket except font or coral and rocking my 395 gift, my first residuum week I rolled the second to worst shoulders and last week I rolled the absolute worst shoulders. It's been a pretty good patch thus far.

#

I just thought about taking a break but I'll ride it through until the end of the month, if my luck doesn't change I may hit classic a little harder then originally intended.

strange python
#

Yeh my guild wants me to farm the benthics but I don’t look forward to this rng bullshit fuck this game

young portal
#

Took me 199 sets to get socketed crit boots, didnt care how long it took I was going to get them. They're bis ~ for the rest of the tier, ride the grind out don't give up

strange python
#

That’s 1k pearls for 1 item without upgrades, wouldn’t even have that timeπŸ˜…

young portal
#

Yup, did dailies on 4 chars for weeks. Felt good when I finally got them tho

untold current
#

No one say u have to get a socket tho. Your farming for bis what do u expect?

#

I mean...that's the game

vapid scarab
#

Took me 3 rolls so

strange python
#

I am okay with farming bis in dungeons or raids but not with hoping for 2 procs that have to occur on the same time with absolute luck u cant say it is ever been such bullshit because that’s not true

vapid scarab
#

15 pearls for bis

young portal
#

Not complaining by any means the grind is what it is, just stating the fact that he shouldn't give up haha

untold current
#

It has tho. Guilds go through whole tiers of farm without bis weapons or trinkets drop, how is that better?

bright smelt
#

at least it's not the legendary grind again

untold current
#

At least u have some modicum of control over a few items.

strange python
#

Instead u got HoA and essences 🀣 @bright smelt

bright smelt
#

that you can control

#

leggies you could not

#

esp early legion

untold current
#

Just bc u didn't get it doesnt mean others dont. It's literally the game design since vanilla.

strange python
#

I miss the times where just gear that actually drops as one piece and is bis was a factor

#

Not hoping for procs

bright smelt
#

would screw with the replayability of the game then

strange python
#

No hoa farming

bright smelt
#

thats the factor theyre also looking for, farming X thing keeps you playing

onyx rock
#

The grind has become too much imo. I actualy did quit the game 2 weeks ago becouse of this. Was raiding CE since Legion and i was ok with the grind but now... its just feels like work and not a game you enjoy. Atleast for me... i am turning 30 in a month so maybe i am just to old for this shit i dunno

strange python
#

Yes of course but this is very alt unfriendly too

#

@onyx rock this

sterile chasm
#

How u farm Pearls?

bright smelt
#

you kill rares and do wqs / the naz battle

strange python
#

Id just stick to 1 char mate, 2-3 expacs ago i had 5 alts + now im a 1 MAYBE 2 Character guy ^^^ @onyx rock

bright smelt
#

thats bout it

strange python
#

I think being competitive on alts nowadays (DPS HPS) to be top you have to put allooott of work in

#

@strange python I currently have 2 chars which are both 435+ and 57 hoa with some essences but even with 2 it’s annoying to keep up on both that’s why they are both just 57

young portal
#

Kill Algan + rares, do dailies, WQ's, weekly lab for Pearl's

bright smelt
#

algan?

strange python
#

meh i just CBA to do it all everyday x2 :DD @strange python

#

especially as Titanforging exists it feels like your NEVER in BiS

#

so there is always that "Potential Upgrade " to get (worst feeling EU ! πŸ˜„ )

#

@strange python I don’t do it either that’s why they are 57 and I miss some essences, but don’t wanna dump one of them

young portal
#

Lost Algan and Wayward Algan are mobs scattered across Naz, they drop Pearl's and benthic tokens once per week I believe(not 100% drop rate ofc)

strange python
#

Yes @strange python the forging is the next bullshit I could quit for lol

onyx rock
#

They actually drop it daylie but they have a diminishing returns mechanic... so when you got pearls from 4-5 the next ones dont drop any more

strange python
#

Yeah i think WF Titanforge ect makes it x1000 more grindy because doing it you "Might get an upgrade" πŸ˜„ , Like Clearing Normal each week takes time πŸ˜›

#

😦

#

And rng Sockets is the next thing

#

The list goes on

#

yep 😦 , only think i like with 8.2 so far is : "we have a few more buttons"

#

and the Raid isnt too bad

#

I like my tank atm, he has dropluck af compared to my rogue too, bis traits, 5 sockets etc 🀣

#

wtf :DDD @strange python

bright smelt
#

@young portal does it show up on rare scanners and such? Don't think I've killed that thing GWseremePeepoThink

young portal
#

@bright smelt no, I made a macro 'target Lost Algan, target Wayward Algan' and I spam it as I'm doing my dailies. They're non aggressive mobs

onyx rock
strange python
#

@strange python comparison: rogue 5 ilvl lower, 1 socket, trash traits🀬

bright smelt
#

@onyx rock cheers!

onyx rock
#

You need to see the nameplate for it to work. so higher nameplate distance = better

bright smelt
#

you can change that distance?

strange python
#

Yes with addons at least don’t know about standard interface
