but once you see DH with double mythic caress pumping
for only raden weapon?
our main dh still doesnt have it btw
its ridiculously strong for dh
Yo, question on Writhing trinket in mythic+, sims worse than torment in a jar at same item lvl, but the APL uses bote after Writhing trinket use. The trinket has chance to crit per target hit meaning The trinket seems to gain 2-4% overall dps when using Bote before it. Is the default APL just to use trinkets after 3 garrotes for Assass mythic+?
if you have any stars on your gear expedient value goes through the roof instantly
prolly explains the gw shenanigans
i coined hc caress on my monk last week, in case i wanna swap to WW ๐
do we have a guide for assass pve spec and essences?
its fine breo
just bring other classes
right
๐
not like you must have 2 demon hunters in

theres a guide in the pins @fading walrus
if a trinket has no implementation it just presses it on cd after things ahead of it in priority @frigid briar
v last in the list
writhing has no implementation
worm trinket is not bad
it'd probably be better with bote but not significantly
@marble hemlock sry not that experienced wit hdiscord but how do i see them ?
i had it 475 socket so i tried it last week
just using with bote everytime is pretty good
yeah same saryero
!guide
I was on for rank 1 assass carapace last night
there you go
ty
76k before hero and add pack came in with BoE and another trinket use
using that trinket
thats what made me look into it more
is there a pref guide between those ?
@fading walrus
@marble hemlock btw regarding triple np/triple ss
the apl is full troll
when it comes to exsang
and it already sims kinda close
idk
ye
and it has higher stat weights than my usual dd setup
so maybe
ss/hod
might be bis setup
i wouldnt be surprised that if you can fit vanishes in well on any given encounter
with how add-heavy fights are
that the build outperforms DD by a significant margin
i also think people are still sleeping on void ritual
but vop major is the future
but yea its not that relevant really
naa man
vop minor maybe tho
i think bote is just too good to ditch
its just like worldvein
vop major sims well
but realistically
theres just situations where it proccing is useless
its good for pure st
exception being dog boss
but how many fights do we have like that
but this boss
i wanna build some coral stacks
VoP is literally the essence version of IS
yeah
but even then its not bad
i think controlled burst is the way to go this tier
idk
im gonna run 3ss 3np on nzoth on sunday
cause i wanna see the psychus and basher pump
i'm 100% sure you wanna play triple np
i did ye
at least that
blizzard knew
and put np/ss everywhere
his NP does 1/2 of his double dose
and he played
3x dd vs 1x np
so yea
thats literally
eye test
shows that np is just much better xd
ye
10 psychophages or shitters on carapace
even with 2 or 3dd its not worth mutilating
just plays much better with more crit
and no dd
honestly
only thing thats good about 3dd is like 20sec burst like vita on raden or smth
also for most people DS is better
cause you do some good damage there
3ss 3hod ct deeper stratagem formless void
yoink lucid for st
yoink bote/iris for aoe
mage
or
no
or conflict major
well, maybe now
Anywhere I can look into assa 2v2 guides on which target to focus on and so on?
but its usually either
conflict or lucid
cause with lucid you get 2 avatars during it
issue with lucid major is that its useless on aoe
or id play it over bote
but with formless you wouldnt have to
if you need burst aoe
just yoink iris
or bote
so in a protwarr/mage/dh comp
you definitely get access to both

thats the lazy mans option
honestly
with how much dmg corruptions make
and a ss/exsang build for example
nothing stopping you from playing
caress as assa
if u have 50 corruption and ur resistance is 52, so meaning i have no corrutpion taken, does heart of darkness work then ?
no
ok thank u
you must have 25 corruption post resistance
@marble hemlock do we still use 3x EB:? or its not worth with td atc..
thats what i am thinking about
3x looks like waste but 1x i guess its not worth to use it
ye 1x maybe
nah
0, 2 or 3
id never play 1eb
it doenst put you over the threshold where you actually start using fok instead of spending CPs
i think 40% crit 1eb was 9 or 10 targets to fokspam
2 was 8
might not look like a big differnece, but it is
idk im gonna get raden weapons thats 50 corruption already out of the way for outlaw and then probably some random td or infinite stars or idk
% crit/% vers maybe
or gushing wounds
and done
its just so conveniant for outla wgetting 2x raden weapons because its very cost efficient way of getting corruption
yeah
as i said
i wouldnt be surprised
to see assa run raden weapons
and just ditch mutilate entirely
most fights, even the prio ones, you just fok anyway
depends on your corruptions obv
whether its spider or fear general
But my tentacles daggers
3styles for 4+ finsihers
with muti its 2
so 110energy per finisher
vs 105
๐คท
and its not like mutilate deals any damage w/o dd
can u even garrote/rup/env without dags
Remind me legion antorus 
its legit only mutilate you cannot use
morning ran a double folly 3eb dungeon once or twice
wasnt really that bad on st
just ask peopel to pull trash with boss
@quasi pewter raden weap is a myth
you do it in good weeks anyway
and then you barely notice a difference
Hi, can anyone give me some tips how to play subterfuge on single? Or point me to some links. I need to know proper opener and some rotation tips
how much loss is it even to fok on st with 3eb over mut
ye cant imagine it being that much
yea and you can still garrote
which is like all of ur dps anyway
with 3gushing 2lash
its not gonna matter if i mutialte or not
my st will still be good
cause, well, 2lash 3gush
๐
ye should blast
nice good
nolifers
true content
past 80 is just 2 ilvl per?
so i can see casuals with high necks ok
your essences get stronger aswell
but in top raiding guilds with 4+ raiding days and alts and shit
@lean marten
its just insane

is infinite stars good on sin?
Really?
Hey guys. My core group is starting to push past 15 keys and are pressuring me to go combat even though our aoe group is pretty nutty. I play sin with iris major to help out my aoe but wondering if I should start running bote for fok spam. Any of you guys have experience in this?
IS isn't good on any classes that don't have sky high haste unless the fights allow you to use it
Classes such as havoc or affli with giga haste, it's always good
hm that's interesting
Wait do they stop scaling past 80?
or
Should be a bigger diff than that if they scale
i mean
could be
2211 with 82
2715 on 80
2175*
it's mastery
need to unequip mastery/versa gear
so probably no scaling past 80
what did you even change in that sim
becuase whatever you did i don think it worked as you intended
i mean
that doesnt work
how much mastery do you have zine
how so?
you have to change the ids iirc
ur neck is still ilvl 493 in both sims
it's 1705
480?
roughly
cause mine is
when i last worked it out
ye
1350

oh shit need to go full nekkid
yeah
well cloak stats i guess
y
ye
ye i didnt think azerites scaled
iirc vop scales to 82
wasnt sure tho
0.3% cd reduction per level on vision
@ 82
@scarlet sequoia
uhm
thats weird
hm?
wdym yaboku
no we don't care about that
Just comparing for memes
This isn't about actually increasing anything
just checking scaling
also if there's a situation you don't run Bote in
then it might be diff 
24.9
imagine playing fucking outlaw
o
and not having any of this minmaxing with traits and azerite and essences
god i love playing assa
as outlaw you dont have time to think about these things
till it is 100%
yoink

yeah youre busy using bte on mobs in sanguine @lethal heart
no time to think
i really need to write some typical outlaw moments down
for chadsassin vs virgin outlaw meme
if anything
although i think i might
i'm most og
gonna be
Fuck goraks
glory in battle masterrace
can u mail me one
had to trade one to dh tho
๐ก
coz i want one
for offspec or sth
so dont need to respec
I want raden helm and carapace dagger then I'm happy
I'd take raden helm for dog serv
tbh
Al'Akir used to be a good realm
Dude I'm desperate
cause there literally is zero on it
Runnign around with my fucking
dude i swear
450 irontide
i remember doing m+ with seb
if we dont transfer

"i cant keep playing, im out of pots and theres none on AH"
i trasnfer turkish nether
or some shit
and i cross realm raid
with my guild
its legit
unplayable
LMAO
herbs are like
100g/each
ff
I transferred from al akir 5 years ago
Twisting kebab
i transferred to alakir

you could go czech'thul

i dont speak czech
it used to be good but all of the alliance disappeared and the horde as well
whats the polish realm even
burning legion
burning legion
ye i waws
go to shattered hand, trust
i was in legion/uldir
there are a lot of polish guilds on Defias Brotherhood
btw
but then ragnaros gang
ragnaros is danish gang
ragnaros is mikkel gang and preach gang
TN is swe and kebabs
ye
so thats easy ๐ ๐ช
TRUE
Kazzak is just
@wobin

im going to look for a guild during the weekend
will 100% need to transfer somewhere
kazzak is giga realm though
for BoEs
its legit insane how they have like 3times as many BoEs on AH
ok guys off topic now hehe mod btw ๐

going full don on us
but yeah anyway
im definitely gonna try exsang at some point
i do think that theres a spot for gcb exsang in m+ again
Dunno if good or not because I'm a RH zoomer but yes ๐
with generals and stuff
I know
you just need to snapshot
But doesn't mean I like it more
exsang 45sec in

exsang +gcb on ghuun, those were the times
hold vanish etc.
thats not even that bad
81?
also
and exsang apl is troll
did you know you can equip 2 logic loops for giga crit?
couldnt trade
theyre not unique if its different triggers
@lyllot
can't
imagine playing the same trinket
socket them
cant
yes
u
it says
y*
im quitting
oh wait

i just realized
Missleading title
just for the memes id love to play a
assuming you had and thought GCB would replace it
how many do you need to be a tamer?
Do you guys use Focused Resolve or Unbridled Fury for single target? I'm using FR
id say
Gonna be nice to socket these 
t5+ flay and youre a tamer
think I have t4
charming 5snakes at once vs charming that 40y anaconda
it's painful to wear in m+
yeah
tell me about it
or my pants with haste/mastery/gushing
im running 15% haste in m+ rn ><
i guess
Same ๐
but hey, its only 1/52 chance to get gushing
is it actually 1/52
๐
well not exactly
I've 0 motivation to sit and spam m+ for it either
i'm ff'd out of m+
gushing is the only one with 1 tier
tbh gushing wont be that good in late patch right?
i dfid so many yunkyards
thats why it seems so rare
with 150 corr resistance
why
was flaming realms

For what reason, and when exactly, did haste take the general priority over other secondary stats? I feel like just last month it was simming like garbage for me, now it's tops
TM 
So it's 6/50 for 6 items, right?
cause alakir is trash
Ez then
Not TN 
You spelled tissue wrong
lmfao
#math god
thats not how stats work
i mean
what are the odds of getting gushing dagger on wrathion
its 1/50 for the corruption, if it drops, and if it has a corruption
so probably only like
%chance of hitting loot +%chance of it being dagger
300kills if youd like a ~50% chance of getting one?
yeah like u said
considering its 3 items that can drop
so
and maybe every 3rd item has corruption?
once burning legion LEGACY servers start
it will be as rare to have that dagger
lol
but yeah dunno
tentacle seems sick for m+ actually
the prio you get is huge
and it always procs on your target
it doesnt scale well with haste either
it doesnt get aoed down as well right?

although once youre like a t7 or t8 tamer
youd rather not want your tendie to die

i can only be a t5 tamer right now
right now it is, yeah
but eventually it wont
after r15, cloak is 3corruption resistance a week
i mean
we wont know until it happens
but that was the plan
and the item IDs for that do exist
whether it actually goes live we dont know, but id assume it does
cause it would be a constant nerf to the content
constant nerf to the content without actually nerfing the content
corruption good system? 
i dont know what either of those are

idk
Looks lke smth from guild discord ngl
Makes my rings useless then ๐
I'm using a 475 socketed torment rn
It's normally ~5% overall
idk I've not had any issues yet apart form once on 1st boss siege
im just in general not a big fan of aoe that has wide aoe coverage
nautilus, torment, td
a lot of it is just pad
on mobs that would die anyway
doesnt matter if i kill small shit in 10 or 20seconds if the biggest mob takes 30
im not saving time, i just have higher overall
Exactly why would I care about stuff that isn't overall tho
Is IS pretty much sim bait? I'll have to really compare logs but it felt like mindflay was just better :X
Gotta stick it to these outlaws and dh's 
It's p much simbait, yeh
Good on some fights, really inconsistant on the rest
idk
i stick it to the outlaws by making them wonder why every key with me is faster than theirs despite them doing way more damage
Really don't like dice either, don't have a good spyglass yet.
assa niche has and always will be targeted dmg on a select few targets
i dont wanna play a trinket that is counter to that niche by just having blanket aoe
and its why i think EB will be gone by the end of the season
cause everyone else just goes blanket aoe
so we actually time the key by going for st/selective dps
Seems like if you have a group that can do the aoe
You can just go as much pump onto prio
3 SS will be mad
3ss 3hod is play imo, ct for supplemental aoe
then stat corruptions or gw/flay for prio/st
and lets roll
do 20k less dps than everyone else, still be faster
It would be nice to not have to win the lottery to get 3 ss 3 eb pieces :X
thats how we roll
I need ilgy and raden for that
so you need to chop chop seli
dude 3 ss hod will fucking assblast bosses though
You even get 2 OP's with it
yep
0 RP again :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
seli spot stealer
mr seli
even tho I feel asleep and forgot to apply
yeah he just updated it
Atleast you get one vamp speed ig?
yeah but you cant play around it
it just happens
and with how cd-based your dmg is
yeah
getting procs outside of it is barely worth
id rather play spyglass
cause the vita is gonna be close to useless on aoe
idk I'm really good on boss dmg right now
yeah same
I can only imagine this shit being even better
i played 450 azerite and still matched DH/mages unless they got 2nd combust
I really like 1 Np for whatever reason
It feels great, but actually think it's mediocre
but man does it feel nice
Crit probs
Crit mastery again
Anyone got a gushing wound sim I can check out? Iโd run one myself but Iโm starting to think it doesnโt existent lol all I can get are crit/haste/mastery for sin
Why do you want a sim with it?
Thanks! someone sent me all the corruptions.
For Pure ST would Blood of the Enemy be better than Lucid Dreams Major and, where would you put Blood of the Enemy in the rotation, before you vanish? (all rank 3)
sim it, but yeah bote is better for most
you use it after toxic blade with 5CP and then vanish, yes

@marble hemlock does playing with a fire mage change your opinion on the value of sin rogue in keys as it brings similar thing in terms of prio damage.
is there a different apl for simming VOP major?
it does cache
i think firemage+assarogue is an amazing combo ๐
complements each other very well
firemage with the bigass burst
assa with the sustained
both good prio
is loaded dice any good for dungeon situations?
trinket ofc
its pretty gud, ye
what about torment in a jar seems to be really high on bloodymallet
would it be better to use 450ilvl azerites with the right traits for aoe with 3x ss/eb, or keep using 470ish with like 1-2x of ss/eb? trying to decide using residuums for hivemind progression
not a fan of torment at all
i hope shadowlands will be atleast twice as more rng than this, and the +10 affix in m+ suddenly either turns your screen off or flips it, and on som bosses lime wire and kazaa just force installs
i hope the 10 affix is a random chance to turn into a bfa dungeon at +5 the key level
or just fucking develop perma timewalking m+
nahhh
Only want EB for HM but yeah
vex/carapace are really just single target fights for what it's worth
I don't have a very good EB set and my Outlaw is missing some key pieces. I just sat myself on Hivemind. My team has 3 BM hunters, 4 warriors and 3 DH. No room for me aside from maybe a mid range dps slapping wounding poison around. 
Is there any possible scenario where I replace coral this tier? Thinking it makes for a good candidate for my first socket buy as I have a base 445
to be honest probably not
I haven't found anything to even replace my 430 coral yet and the 445 is about 500 dps better
i watched a feral snag a 455 socketed coral this week
rip
big rip lol
You cannot socket ep gear
luckily I didn't have a mythic font and there's a 0% chance of finding a pug that can full clear EP.
Personally, i love coral so im pretty ok with it
Just knowing theres no where to go
yea I don't think anyone would disagree with that. At least coral is kind of fun to use.
^
Yeah
Font however, is not
Im fine with being stuck with coral sort of
But I dont like being stuck with this 450 font
yea charging your font in the middle of a fight is real anti-fun
Its just such a punishing trinket on some fights
Lucky you font can be replaced with vita or lucky weekly chests
yea I already replaced my 430
I know mages that would literally kill a man for a 450 font
like week one
dw our mage got a 455 font and then 455 socketed from bonus roll last week of EP reclear ๐
geez
lmao
Im sending that to my mage friend right now
locked into that shit even for shadowlands ๐
atleast shredder is nuts though
inc: font is bis for the first 2 tiers in shadowlands
gag me
Cleanse and use it as off-hand? ๐ค (the one with twilight devastation) Didn't get any N'Zoth Carapace daggers(yet). Not sure how good it's for M+(there's no good M+ sims(?) for rogues).
brah
lolol
don't kid he might do it
ya hate to see it
I have already ring and boots with twilight devastation.
so?
xD
I'll trade you a void ritual for it
How many ranks of tdev do you have?
@vagrant tapir so it would've been more optimal to get a dagger upgrade(for an off-hand) than nothing?
3x 12% with dagger/boots/ring

Hmmm, do you wear any twilight dev on st?
offhand is almost a stat stick though, you dont know what upgrades you'll get in your TD slots in the future
Nah, sims shows that 4s haste+10s mastery > td.
I was mostly doing raids, gonna do some M+ soon probably. That's the reason why I'm asking.
Just don't cleanse it.
We cant really tell you because its so dependent on your other options
Personally, would never cleanse a td
@hollow stone yeah I understand, but was wondering how good TD is.
around 470
Its very good for m+
Had seriously no idea how it performs in M+.
Good fucked
^
the best kind of fucked
like, unapparelled
^
And will never use it
lol okay okay
I've gotten 3 cara daggers, 1 socketed and have a cleansed one in my MH. My cleave is horrendous from my inability to coax the RNG lord into giving me more than 1 TD (R1)
just make sure you face your character in the right direction
