it is
that's why i never say jc as viable for me
i would have not had enough gold to pull it off
Are you vanishing for Garrote damage with sub?
Your armoury says youβre running 2x SS
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
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?
gotcha
you been simming on raidbots? tried simming different traits and dropping SS?
Yeah i use raidbots, it comes out to that right now
mind if you PM me a sim link, i'm interested to compare for you
weirdly low sim for that ilvl dondz
wow
that's the nicest thing anyone's done a class discord before
thanks so much
*for me anyway
can probably get more dps out of the gear you have for you, hang tight a min
results inc
i always just blamed it on not having azerite traits
your traits are fine π
give me your coral you butt
π
cant get one of those things to save myself
and our ele got a friggin 450 to troll me with from m ashvane
out of curiosity: was it the double dose that made crit so high for stat weights?
amazing
run CLF/lucid
thank you so so much
you are most welcome
clf lucid combo too good less you have bote
even if you have bote
yup
and what the fight demands
good burst awesome consistent dmg or awesome burst good consistent dmg
its only saying to regem gloves gem to haste
do a sim for your statweights but there a breakpoint where crit and haste are about the same
and that is prollly it ^
gotcha
like if you change one gem the weights prolly swap
but the sim tells you to go with the highest sim
yup, shoulda known the dude was thorough enough to include that π
you need to get the benthic
badly
its dumb but non negotiable if you really want to min max π¦
hes got the 2 best pieces
probably currently rolling the other 2
but yeh, can get more dps getting the other 2
maybe abberr belt for orgozoa too but yeh
believe me, i'm actively trying to get the gloves
man
i don't even know how many it's been
id even take a normal font like you have
i used up all my luck on the benthics i think
same
i've been bonus rolling ashvane/azshara normal and heroic every week
yeh normal font is still vgood
but I have all the benthics
its good to start using it to learn when/where to use it in fights also
is 10 secs before vendetta the norm?
rather than me regurgitate, check out #tc-updates latest post for that one
cheers, thank you
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
MA only makes certain rogue skills crit, its not everything crit
I sim higher with Subterfuge over MA...Killing me
but you do line up coral with the inkpod pop
@weary lagoon thats because you are running SS traits π
throw away worldvein is worthless on most fights
I know but I have access to 3DD and I feel so energy starved
that would be a dream,,,
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
I like MA except for the pooling/lull in activity
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
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
@weary lagoon i tweaked your gear, seeing if i can get some more dps for you
just waiting for result
I'm game for any advice
So haste over crit?
and not many fights are patchwerk,,,I feel like Im all over the place...lol
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
lots of fights are pretty patchwerk for melee
who do you guys usually have in the delerium realm on zaqul in your teams?
what specs i mean
Just a bunch of spriest, fire mages, boomiea and hunters
@fallow otter ty
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/topgear anyone got any advice on how to improve my numbers for raid?
You've just linked the frontpage
Do a sim of top gear, link it and I can fuck around with it
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
old main stat gem is just lazy and cheap and bad
the new gems are nothing
put one in
kraken's eye aren't entirely useless but ya definitely use a leviathan's if you're gonna do a main stat gem
just use both Kraken and Leviathan at the same time for 200 Agi
i was doing this for a while until switching to clf/lucid and haste becoming more important
Hey, what does the ravenholdt guide mean with 'master assassin talented in the new way'?
allright
You wont see the diff in the end, just feel it
morning all, if i just recently swapped to my rogue - what benthic gear should i aim for first bracer or gloves
really O.o
gl with gambles
i thot bracers and gloves are much better than the other 2
boots>bracers,gloves>>>belt yw bro
oki tyty
the other benthics do more damage compared to phys belt usually
thats not true
we all sim constantly
some sim more than they play
)
but the general consence is boots > bracer ?
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
i just average them out as about 1% each mostly, this is an ashvane kill of mine
i probably wouldnt prio upgrading boots the first as the other procs scale on ilvl
ignore my essences
ok
@fallow otter u got my string ye
yeh simming it
tyty
but yeh as we said boots>bracer>gloves
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
its in pins yup π

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

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
Okay, thanks alot
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?
You don't use it with the4 first
you just apply it for the stacks
and use it with the 2nd
Perfect thanks
gonna do some blood of the enemy farm later if some1 wanna jkoin
I'd recommend asking in #wow-general
oh sry i thought i clicked it
do u guys sim at nightly or weekly
Nightly is always the most up to date
The only reason to not use Nightly is if it introduced a bug of some kind.
a reason not to use nightly is, there may be bugs we dont know about
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 ?
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.
distance isn't really a problem considering its really close to the boss
but i mean u trade 5cb for 150energy
If that's the case then everything else is cleaving hard enough that I can't imagine it would be worth the time.
(thats the problem)
SIN is a single target spec without traits to make us a really bad single target spec.
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.
hey guys, can rogues avoid getting bubbled on ashvane with cloak or vanish?
cloak yes
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
note, the people arround you still get bubbled so stand on the other bubbles
yeah perfect ty
What does clf stand for? cruicible of flames?
Condensed Life Force
Hey, anything I could improve here?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/7N3QJANkLoWMge83RHjCT8
I got benthic waist but not upgraded still to 425. Or should I try to roll boots/bracers/gloves instead?
Instead of what?
instead of upgrading waist
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)
i wrote down the guide in german on ravenholdt
you might check out this one
!guide
Assassination Guide: http://www.ravenholdt.net/assassination-guide/
perfect, this is the better one than icy? π
im not here to give subjective opinions (ye it is)
weak does too? 
@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
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
does toxic blade affect damage from dribbling inkpod?
good to know, ty
on the webpage for the assa guide it says "Master assassin talented new/old way" and shows different openers
It's because it uses the MA window a bit better
but in the end of combat, it wont be the diff ever
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
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
What azerite combinations are people using for m+ ?
double ace, double dead, 1 bb, 1 wits
2 ttk, 2 np, 1 dd, 1 loyal
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
When you play it does it do more or do you feel sin does more damage?
if you have diver's folly behemoth weapon/underrot weapons
How much do you sim for in st sebek
assa doesnt have any broken weapon effect they can use
Do have double underrots
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
Man they should have made the sivara dagger do the shiver venom thing that the crossbow and pole arm do
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
Yeh one thing that feels super annoying about outlaw in raid is that
When it slows down it feels miserable
(boss damage)
Yeh
Jusst trying to figure out if it's worth to switch from outlaw to sin
Fixing to push Mythic Ashvane with guild and want to do what's going to benefit us the most
rest of the fights you can play w/e you prefer
What about that Chinese outlaw log on zaqul
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
Does delirium even benefit us that much compared to other classes
ofc
well its more of
being able to spam mutilate is quite big
Feels like the guaranteed 1s global really makes it less strong
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
its very big , especially when youre running vision on that fight
because no immunity
Leech poison too good
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
But cloak yeah
so if you send in mage
ignite me 
he will rape everyone
with ignite π
mage would be better
than assa
if not for that
because mage burst is bigger than assa burst
ye
I think saryero played iwthout it?
you dont have to send always rogues in
to 3rd and 4th
you can have different people
depends on roster
Nah you don't ye
its just easiest right
tbh running vision felt abit poitless for me π , we had 2 wlocks that came in and blaaaasted the add, they could 3 man it
i dont even get sent in π
Probably fury warrior too?
Tbh I see fuckall people run it on top logs, but I suppose it's not for top logs you run that shit so
Hmm what other 1:30 classes are there
padding adds
Any of the hunters?
idk if fury is good π , when i overslept they put in a fury warr instead and it failed every time
but probably would work
Hunters with resets on aspect ig
Yeah vendetta is a really stable cd
Yeah like, everyone runs it
and it scales with haste
LP, that is
Isn't sin amongs the highest burst classes in window?
hm
or maybe frost dk can give them a run
I think when my guild gets to zaqul Iβll probs be 65 neck and itβll feel real nice
or a ret pala
that echo dps
Sebek donβt you play with a surv hunter
survival is really fucking good there aswell
π
in delirium
Yeah cuz haste right
Loool

and survival has like
nty
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
Itβs more sustained damage on that cd that you extend innit
Do HoT's get saved over transfering into realm?
but still does absurd damage
or do they all get taken off?
So if you can live long enough then you pop off
dont know man
I never go in 
Nah just thinking about literally anything
double holy pala 1 disc 1 resto
We wont run rdruid I don't think either
but ye didnt pay attention
When you have vop minor what major do you even take
Oh okay I guess that lines good yeh
it doesnt make any sense to play lucid
Makes up for some of the weirdness with vanish not lining I suppose too
For the versa buff?
ye
Conflict 
You don't think flames?
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
Versa beats everything if it sims the same yeah
My god discord is shitting itself
Does teh PPM work w haste
w flame?
the minor that is.
i have no idefa
bec if it works w haste downstairs on zaq

or CLF minor for zaq
I know that the minor is affected by haste
Wait why not purification minor
Itβs a damage proc thatβs strong vs aberrations innit
Also the proc heals you

Man that actually sounds pretty good
Like bote major and vop minor are locked in yeah
You can see whether theyre hasted or not @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
vial on cd but not when full on hp i guess
if you are goin 1st delerium and you stay still next phase, i found it be best to cloak at 7 stacks
well the first one with add you wanna come out when fear realm comes out
1st one for 1min(till boss phases)

last one for 1min 10 sec
hm aight
looking back at it, mages came in and smacked me
Yikes haha
π
Man next time play subterfuge ss sneak in and vanish garrote the casters

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

well yeah π
is that delirium 4 or 5
we enter 4th, then mages come in 5th
Actually rekt

dno you should probably leave 4th after a bit
we couldnt
hm?
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
i mean , youd do less dmg if u can stay till boss dies?
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
no i know its not tight, but if you can survive till boss is dead there is no point in leaving
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
Sim and look at ur stat weights
can anyone tell me why the other rogue in my guild envenoms for 47,5k avg, while mine is 30k avg? About the same gear - but he has TTK.
logs: https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/py8CvMPc6mqg7fth#type=damage-done&boss=-2&difficulty=0&wipes=1
you have a 440 weapon, hes got a 450 and TTK
there are other issues than envenoms, potentially
or why did you do like 100 less envenoms than him
it's over 22 pulls
are you dying on ashvane?
he usually gets off like 2-3 more than me pr. fight and I suck at clicking Feint
clicking feint is maybe a problem too

yea you're almost doubling his upsurge hits
which is like the only thing that should be close to killing you no ashvane
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?
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
@brave gyro in pins at the top
is the consensus that you go for 1 TTK atm or just go for NP+DD?
I havn't been able to get a blue parse on ashvane yet.. this guys number is really good geeze
@potent zinc Thank you friend. Off to grinding i go i guess π
enjoy π
Standing in upsurge is not about being optimal. Thats just failing mechanics
The raid pieces have TTK on them
thats for sure
its not a matter of choice for me
v true
They dont have DD nor NP and they have TTK, so thats whats simming the highest
hmm I'm running 3x DD and 1 NP with 1 TTK .. I just kinda defaulted toa triple DD setup.. maybe thats incorrect
idk
DD is really good
my DD does about 1,2m on an average Ashvane wipe
DD is really good yeah
if you use 3xDD, DD will do more dmg then mutilate itself on most pulls sooo...yeha its stronk
you cant easily compare crit numbers on ashvane
since crits on absorbs doesnt count
and if he crits more than you thats also a thing
this is the issue
thats a weird opener
where is vanish
he's playing a shrouded
im playing SC

whcih arguably makes that even worse
you're also refreshing garrote after 14 seconds
but why use tb, just too spam non-envenom buffed mutilates then
ye doubt that WCLogs is that precise tbf
is there no way to get rid of the SS
I have a 430 DD+UT piece
wclogs is the most precise
so ye
whats the other trait on the item
ye @bleak spoke just talking about the exact timing of my rupture/coral
SS and?
So you have deliberately picked SS over DD?
or 435 with DD+UT
ss is probably not the play on ashvane
i mean you can abuse it a bit on the brinys
alternative is filthy transfusion
I feel like MA is the play this tier
ye this is my highest DPS setup tbh
cus of the many burst trinkets
yeah the windows are super defined
ye feels awful
i'd say maybe there's 1 fight i'd consider ss subt on
i would play outlaw on that fight
just that UT isnt worth alot DPS-wise on ashvane cuz it's always procced
man why would you play outlaw on queen's court man
SS is good for Court no?
SS on queens court 
the bosses are tanked like 40 yards away from eachother, at least for us
Gotta sprint + shadowstep to even apply that shit
100% you can get the multidot with vanish and sprint step
without losing more than 1 global
its also easy enough to apply them as a drive by when tanks switch, but I don't think its enough for subt
for me it would be loyal to the end
i think if the timers line okay i play ss on that fight
otherwise i play ma
i enjoy 2t sin alot
play exsang then 4Head
yeah but it was good in uldir
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
oh yea
definitely
they added 3 sequences to look for
in 2 weeks
essence usage, font timings, coral usage
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
man i feel like i don't even get punished for rotational errors
like 1/2 the time
cuz of lucid procs
feels so weird that sometimes you just play normaly, dont even reserve energy, and sit at 114
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.
i have 99s where i refresh ruptures in tbs and all manners of unsavory garbage
tell your rl
too NOT send melee dps into the fear realm lol
and it's like if i had a cast sequence like that in bod i would actually had been so mad
thats like, he wants everyone too suffer
yeah .. we are a small raid typically 12-13
I tunnel boss on zaqul heroic, havent done mythic prog yet
because that sort of thing would make you drop 10 ranks
you need like 3 ranged people
so not alot of choice, but then get asked why my numbers are in green parses
but now it's like lmao just get lucky xd
yep
still better than that week at the start of this tier i had to play lucid major
my god
lets you do something that REALLY fucks your dps on a fight where padding rules the logs
you have more casts
my old brain is overloaded with all the shit i need to keep track off tho
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
I never played with lucid major personally, had bote rank 3 first week
same lel
Lucid major 
man you have no idea what sort of bullshit you didn't have to deal with
yeah we have an insane shaman and hunter who post purples 100%
I am happy i didnt have to 
why is lifeforce better then bote 

blood rank4 cast is legit the best thing in the game
what does it look like 
a bit like a azerite holy nova
but there is a fking choir in the background for the 5seconds
I only have visions rank 4, never bothered getting the 50k honor for rank 4 bote
you feel like god in those 5seconds where you do your 120k envenom crits
yeah
its not loud or something, but it feels sooo good
man i did the last 27k for bote in one night
Sub i got bis pvp azerite at least so we meme
two weeks ago

@clever shadow π€· zaqul is a 100%padfight for logs
i played marked for death blade rush outlaw and slapped people
I wanna try purification during bgs and see if i can proc an instakill
there's no way l0l
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
i mean it just sounds like your raid doesn't understand what you should be doing
yes that could be
^
^
which is probably tunneling the boss
and ignoring adds that aren't literally within melee range
and ignoring most of those too
you dont need too be a genius at the game too see the fight, and understand that melee into fear realm is...not great
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
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
and the one that everyone screams for everyone to go into
i mean, normal realm is kill boss,cleave adds
with extra action button
fear is kill castere
man is that why my parses are depleted
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
delirium is kill boss,cleave adds, but now you have a safe #1-#3 dps spot
delirium is underwhelming as rogue in general
its too much haste, you dont really benefit from it
spriest scale endless with haste cus of how insanity works
yea i dunno, didnt feel anything
sin rogue simply attacks faster, cus you are at full energy all the time
meanwhile spriest doing 120k dps 
can you take a look at this and tell me if i'm memeing myself https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/aVXRxbnPm8QJFWAr#fight=55&type=damage-done&source=16
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
spriest in delirium is so stupid lel, they could legit play surrender2madness
just dont go places
nope
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
we have not killed it on heroic yet
if im not in delirium on that boss i legit tunnel boss until its dead
i sit on it like a leech
last night we wiped for a while with the new tether dmg lol
yeah our monk add tank was getting rofl'd all night
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
i wouldn't play crucible in m+ for assa
you're already locked on globals after you set up your dots
The alternative for me is R3 iris or just leave aoe to rest of group and go with R3 guardian...
iris soudns like the best option
it's a mystery
font before pull and same as always
nice
yah didnt know that either, just thought it was a static number

My second vanish comes off cd 6-8 sec before tb, do you guys wait with vanish untill that tb window?
In 95% of cases yes
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
yea its well within vendetta
I dont think ive lost a vanish to doing that yet
push do you tb before or after the vanish?
thanks!
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
5Γ25=125
yes, so the question was is it worth to wait 5 sec with vanish

If the boss dies the next 5 sec, no. Else yes
Ok looked at pins for benthic didnβt see which item is first prio, can u tell?
Boot
Ok ty
You could also simply do a droptimizer sim
its probably boots first, i would sim the other 2
Would also be more accurate
I think all my benthic slots are 440 or 435 not sure atm
Whatβs even the overall dps gain in say 4 benthics 420 vs 4 440s?
yuge
Cant now
So do it later
Then later?
..
You said u didnβt need accurate numbers
But I said estimation
Right, thereβs my inaccurate estimation
hes just not that good at esimating, thats why we sim
Hope it helped
my 455 belt sims 82dps less than 420 benthic socket. a 440 is much worse
Thatβs not an estimation thatβs 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 wonβt farm them for 1kπ
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
Farm or forever be lesser than everyone who did
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.
@idle ember thatβs 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
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.
Yeh my guild wants me to farm the benthics but I donβt look forward to this rng bullshit fuck this game
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
Thatβs 1k pearls for 1 item without upgrades, wouldnβt even have that timeπ
Yup, did dailies on 4 chars for weeks. Felt good when I finally got them tho
No one say u have to get a socket tho. Your farming for bis what do u expect?
I mean...that's the game
Took me 3 rolls so
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 thatβs not true
15 pearls for bis
Not complaining by any means the grind is what it is, just stating the fact that he shouldn't give up haha
It has tho. Guilds go through whole tiers of farm without bis weapons or trinkets drop, how is that better?
at least it's not the legendary grind again
At least u have some modicum of control over a few items.
Instead u got HoA and essences π€£ @bright smelt
Just bc u didn't get it doesnt mean others dont. It's literally the game design since vanilla.
I miss the times where just gear that actually drops as one piece and is bis was a factor
Not hoping for procs
would screw with the replayability of the game then
No hoa farming
thats the factor theyre also looking for, farming X thing keeps you playing
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
How u farm Pearls?
you kill rares and do wqs / the naz battle
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
thats bout it
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 itβs annoying to keep up on both thatβs why they are both just 57
Kill Algan + rares, do dailies, WQ's, weekly lab for Pearl's
algan?
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 ! π )
@strange python I donβt do it either thatβs why they are 57 and I miss some essences, but donβt wanna dump one of them
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)
Yes @strange python the forging is the next bullshit I could quit for lol
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
Yeah i think WF Titanforge ect makes it x1000 more grindy because doing it you "Might get an upgrade" π , Like Clearing Normal each week takes time π
π¦
And rng Sockets is the next thing
The list goes on
yep π¦ , 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 π€£
wtf :DDD @strange python
@young portal does it show up on rare scanners and such? Don't think I've killed that thing 
@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
Just fly around and use this WA @bright smelt https://wago.io/K4vzOL1j2
This WA is made to help find Algan for farm! Just need to be in range to have nameplates load in and the anchor and audi
@strange python comparison: rogue 5 ilvl lower, 1 socket, trash traitsπ€¬
@onyx rock cheers!
You need to see the nameplate for it to work. so higher nameplate distance = better
you can change that distance?
Yes with addons at least donβt know about standard interface
what weak auras do people use to track interrupts? also i have seen rogues have like a countdown and call out for shroud. is that a weak aura or a mod?
With any Nameplate Addon yes, dunno about Blizzard ones @bright smelt
@jolly comet Type in wago io interrupt tracker and shroud timer or stuff you will find
@jolly comet I use weakaura for both
ok thank you
the shroud countdown is easy to make yourself
!wa

That one was for my own benefit btw π
Does shadowmeld activate MA?
dont think so. but i wish!
Ok
Question: assuming I am use TB and MA without SS. Opener looks like Garrote> mutilate till 4+> Rupture > GLF > Trinket>Vend>Mutilate>TB
more or less curious about GLF and trinkets on the GCD
gondenced life force?
sorry yeah CLF
Depends a bit on your trinket
what trinket exactly
I'm hearing phial is not a great trinket in M+ for aoe. The sims claim it is, though. What would come out on top for AOE? Spy glass?
If I had to guess I'd say the coral because of the crit
Great synergy with seal fate and echoing blades
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/uA3fZKkruQ6MsHuk48UMzF noice, finally past 40k. : P Whats the biggest sims so far ? heard around 45k +/- ?
