if your gear is super limited there's not much you can do to be honest besides avoiding obvious things like that, you can aim for shrouded suffocation or echoing blades traits but they're not common on random entry gear

hidden mason
#

it sounds like the solution is to run back to outlaw for ease of use and use loaded dice since I despise rtb XD

#

But I meant more along the lines of I don't know which one to use just for general use before I can get more gear

grand matrix
#

i wonder why raidbots tell me to set Force multiplier / Deadly on my daggers, every player from top play with deadly / versa

#

is it the right way to sim m+, patchwerk 4 boss 40 sec ?

strange python
#

try 6 without bloodlust

#

or link sim

Hey, I really just started rogue recently, and had a question for the Rotations in the sin guide immenseconcern

I got a shrouded suffocation trait on my shoulders now, but in the guide it mentions Shrouded suffocation for Toxic blades, exsanguinate etc.
Are there different versions of Shrouded suffocation that buff these skills, or how do I have to understand this? sadcomfy

strange python
#

can you show where it says that in the guide, for context?

summer valve
#

it just means if you are using that talent and also have SS

rocky ruin
#

for gems are you guys using top gear or stats weight?

summer valve
#

top gear

rocky ruin
#

and replace the gems or not in the option?

summer valve
#

if you don't mind replacing gems every time then turn it on

#

if you don't have gold for that you can just leave it off

scarlet sequoia
#

yeah gems are extremely expensive

rocky ruin
#

but i want to know what brings better results

#

i have gold and im using replace but

summer valve
#

then enable replace

rocky ruin
#

ok

#

do you still apply rup after the first mutilate when you only have 3 cp afterwards or do you then cast mut a second time and then rup?

halcyon grotto
#

If you get 3 on your first mut. You mut a 2nd time before rup.

peak crow
#

Heya. I have noob question. How often do you use coral when you play assa on single target? On cd? Or maybe should i wait for specific cds or amount of stacks? Im kinda new to assa

arctic walrus
#

Every vendetta outside of your opener

#

feelsloveman thx

steady violet
#

bloody hell lads shrouded is bad for raiding

rigid mango
#

It's aight

steady violet
#

its ok but theres no way you can get like 99 avg after killing all bosses with it weirdchamp

rigid mango
#

You can

#

It's not the best but it's still aight

#

And it gets better the faster the bosses die

steady violet
#

idk man stjern has told me otherwise monakS

rigid mango
#

Ah great another one

vocal musk
#

local imams didnt allow DD to be played in their raids

#

sorry

rigid mango
#

Unlucky.

vocal musk
#

truly unfortunate

echo geyser
#

what kind of setup would u guys run in Workshop tyrannical?

#

azerite traits

#

is 1 Np good?

distant lava
#

yes np is good

rigid mango
#

Probably something liek

#

3 SS 2 HoD 1 NP or something

#

Always 3 SS, I think HoD in general can possibly beat 1 NP but dunno, it's all about the bosses

#

TTK or BBI aren't bad either

echo geyser
#

yeah thought np would be decent dmg + extra energy regen

rigid mango
#

Yeh, it's good

echo geyser
#

running 1 less SS in there would probably not be good right

rigid mango
#

But ye any of them after 3 SS is good

#

Nah SS will do most of your damage

echo geyser
#

id trade off 480 head without SS for 465 with

#

aight

#

Blood major, minors lucid breath vision?

rigid mango
#

Yessir

young vessel
#

is it worth to play VoP assa raid?

#

or better to stay on these 2 min CDs combo

arctic walrus
#

Only on wrathion really

#

And possibly nzoth

#

Drest can have its uses as well

quasi pewter
#

ilgy too

#

I'm throwing together an assy build for vex because I dont like Outlaw. Right now the best I can do is 2x SS 2x EB 1x HoD and a 1xTtK.
Using the stack adds on boss and cleaving everything should I run dev or stars? We have so much cleave already I expect I won't have to switch and focus much outside the big guys.

crimson palm
#

I'm using it on Xanesh also due to the overlap with adds

distant lava
#

playing cleave shit on vex is trolling

arctic walrus
#

Then you should probably drop the ss and eb and run dd instead because there’s no point to run cleave traits if you have “so much cleave” already

distant lava
#

except if you have 0 dhs 0 fire mages 0 bm hunters 0 fury warriors

idle ember
#

soooo just ST vex? I would 1000% do that. One of our biggest issues on orgo were people trying to parse (I'm not one of them) But just glancing at logs it looked like a must like Hivemind.

distant lava
#

yeah because what you want to do is kill small adds with the big ones

#

and the important part is 2nd phase too

#

where it's long enough that dd becomes better

idle ember
#

Alright, just made my planning 100% easier, thanks.

crimson palm
#

You switch to the enforcer if prio damage is needed, but no reason to run the padding build

#

try simming 6 targets 40sec with no bl

magic thorn
#

6 Target Patchwerk ?

strange python
#

yes

magic thorn
#

2K dps gain, is this worth it ?

#

Also SS isnt ahead in Terms of Azerite anymore :/

strange python
#

i wouldnt cleanse anything for that

magic thorn
#

What would you suggest wearing as azerite pieces ? Stay 3SS and only swap for Dungeons like Motherload or Waycrest ?

strange python
#

stay with 3ss

magic thorn
#

thanks alot

arctic walrus
#

Use the deadly momentum it’s more consistent than mindflay but also you have to consider corruption level which I can’t tell on mobile atm

strange python
#

but he has to cleanse shard for it

#

which he might regret later on

magic thorn
#

Its not rly about the cleansing got a 2nd shard in bank

arctic walrus
#

Up to you at that point

forest wing
#

Guys, i recently got the plume trinket from KR and its simming better than my 430 ashvane/465 harlans... Should i just use on CD? never had this trinket

ember mural
#

sim apl uses it with vendetta/vanish window since it is a 2min CD trinket, try that

forest wing
#

good to know ty

desert orchid
#

what's the general stat weights atm?

#

playing catchup so not worth it to sim myself yet since I am nowhere near min max, I've sat out since we cleared the last raid tier so behind quite a bit on gear and corruptions and I'm pretty sure stuff has changed since then

royal lantern
#

stat weights dont matter when you are cathing up

#

and ALL stats are really close for sin right now

#

you just start too sim when you are not sure if an item is a 100%upgrade peeposhrug

shy dust
#

It’s worth it to sim.

dark crag
#

Corruption >= itemlvl > statweights

desert orchid
#

was going crit and haste, but seems crit/mastery is probably more versatile?

shy dust
#

Stat weights are dynamic depending on your gear

royal lantern
#

^#

shy dust
#

Sim yourself.

strange python
#

just hoard everything

#

all loot is rogue loot

desert orchid
#

and @shy dust, I understand when you are near min/max that is the solution, but not when you are playing catchup and are going to be getting several similar ilvl drops with different stats. Was looking for an opinion on a quick and dirty stat weight so I can know a general rule of thumb as I get caught up until I am closer to that min/max range. Is that general rule of thumb, crit and master is pretty descent and well rounded now?

strange python
#

crit mastery for m+

outer lotus
#

I think in general for single target haste and crit are best

strange python
#

w/e in raid

arctic walrus
#

Or you just...sim the result

#

Simming is not a min max thing anymore it’s literally the only correct way of knowing what’s an upgrade

strange python
#

p sure just pick ilvl when catching up either way

arctic walrus
#

Doesn’t even matter? If ilvl is what matters to you keep it in your bags but you would obviously see if something is a downgrade even if higher ilvl

strange python
#

With catching up I assumed he had really shit gear

vast forum
#

St is just rng, i've had all 4 stats come out on top before

shy dust
#

What’s your ilvl.

#

If you’re like 300 just go by ilvl if you don’t care to sim

#

Simming is much more accurate though.

#

Unless you wanna just be lazy and use that as an excuse

desert orchid
#

it's 437, so pretty much anything will be an upgrade

strange python
#

not rly

desert orchid
#

albeit, it's that low b/c of both my trinkets

strange python
#

430 coral is better then most trinkets x)

shy dust
#

437?

#

Yeah you should be simming.

ionic hemlock
#

I got a 450 ring w/ socket and Equip: Increases the damage and healing you deal with Critical Strikes by 3%. or can I just cleanse that?

#

We're on a time out after we disagreed on leech

ionic hemlock
#

Anyone who runs M+ at a pretty high level? like i dunno 15+? lol that could help with sims?

tropic ocean
#

sim 5-6 target for aoe 40sec -1min or 1min 30 depending on ur key

#

but generally u want high crit high mastery

#

crit versa decent too

cunning geyser
#

Hey condensed life force sims higher but do we agree that BoE is better on most raid fights due to how they are designed ?

strange python
#

I use CLF because it sims significantly higher then BotE for me

cunning geyser
#

How significantly ? Mine was like almost 1k

#

Does CLF sims higher for most people ? I always assumed it was because it's a 5min fight sim, but in a raid situation it's probably often better to use BotE

strange python
#

bote is more versatile yes

#

and mine is 800

hidden bay
#

just as usual

#

clf is usually simming higher

#

but bote has better burst/dmg windows

#

for example queen azshara like we all remember

hot urchin
#

Silly question, but is anyone using crimson tempest with good results in m+? I've never talented it actually.

and idk why u sim multi target for 5 min lol

fairly new, trying things around with the sims

vop minor turns warthion into such a pog fight poggersgasp just did a pog log on it Clappers

#

the thing however is do you hold vanish for vandetta still? or vanish outside of vandetta?

arctic walrus
#

The whole point of vop is to get vendetta quicker than 2 min

#

So you only line up your odd number of vendettas 1,3,5 etc

crystal vault
#

vop on carapace M, whats your thoughts

scarlet sequoia
#

no

crystal vault

#

ye can work

#

depends on ur kill time

#

i hope you meant minor

crystal vault
#

yes

drifting light
#

if I wanna use subterfuge, do I open and attack from vanish with double garrote or just one?

strange python
#

do u have shrouded suffocation?

drifting light
#

nah

strange python
#

then one

#

it is in the sin guide

#

linked at the top

#

😄

drifting light
#

alright. Not familiar with discord

unkempt solstice
#

so for mythic+. 3x Echoing blades, 3x Twist the Knife?

#

although, that kinda feels like your single target's gonna suffer a bit.

honest vessel
#

3x SS, 3x eb

#

can swap out ebs for ttks

quasi pewter
#

3ss fill rest with eb/hod/ttk maybe 1 np

unkempt solstice
#

shrouded suffication 3x?

#

3x ss and 3x ttk is optimal, that doesn't seem like alot of aoe?

quasi pewter
#

its not optimal

dense blaze
#

Is Eternal Torment on mythic N'zoth AoE? Can I feint it?

halcyon zealot
#

opinions on Vision minor w/ spyglass and coral vs Strife minor w/ spyglass plumage for M+?

rigid mango
#

Vision is better for boss fights if it means you get the second vendetta when you wouldn't normally

#

also better for general prio since it means you pop vend + bote together all the time

#

You disjoint vanish and can use it more fluidly on trash aslong as it's up 1:30 into the fight for 2nd vend

#

Strife will however probably do more overall unless you get that second vend and ofc gives more vers which is better for you overall/especially since it scales w EB

quasi pewter
#

also keep in mind strife can sometimes take a while to stack up and can drop stacks between packs

stone fable
#

Are people running blood because of corruption procs? My sims keep saying that shard is still better

#

Guardian I mean

honest vessel
#

blood is more versatile for burst windows and works better on lots of fights

#

its out simmed a lot tho

#

try simming with subterfuge

#

MA and blood dont like eachother anymore

#

and subter scales better late into the xpac

Top gear or gear compare?

#

i believe i said gear compare

sleek spear
#

Thanks mate. I don’t really know the difference between top gear and gear compare though

Top gear = sim gear you have available; gear compare = sim stuff you dont have

good afternoon, i've recently started to play rogue assa and i have a few questions,1)does resolve into a huge dmg loss if i garrote and rupture fall off just for a sec?,2) most of the times i find mylsef with no energy left, i heard about ''pooling'' but i don't think i'm doing it right,so what should i do in these situations, go with basic attacks? and last 3) i use raidbots ti sim my char stat weights and top gear, but i don't understand if the dps displayed above at the end of the sim is the dmg i should maintain at all time, or if it is the maximum that i can do with cd and consumables.

guys someone can help me? on raidbots it says i should be doing 31 k of dps, but i'm always at 22.I'm doing what the priority says,to maitain dots, to spend remaining combo points on envenom, to use vendeta and vanish on cd, but when i practice at the dummy, it's always 22k.

arctic walrus
#

are you simming normal patchwork or specifically target dummy

shut thicket
#

patchwerk

arctic walrus
#

there's a target dummy option

#

try simming that then compare

#

that 31k is taking into account lust and all available raid buffs

shrewd iron
#

Also do you have bl/flask/pot/rune/food enabled?

shut thicket
#

trying now dummy with no food and dummy,but the total displayed on the dps section, is the maximum or real while having the buffs?

tropic ocean
#

?

#

just remove the raid buffs in the sim

shut thicket
#

yes i did it, i just don't get if the dps displayed, in any kind of simulation is the maximum you can get, or the sustained

tropic ocean

its as good as it can get with current built apl

tropic ocean
#

99,% players wont reach that dps in a real scenario so u shouldnt worry about that part

shut thicket
#

ok i simmed now, it says that with no buffs i should be around 25k,so it's fairly close, that means ther's still something wrong,does the queick sim take in consideration my stats situation too?

the dps displayed is the mean amount

Elaborate Planning questions:

  1. I'm having trouble keeping 100% uptime on the buff even when I have 100% uptime on the target (i.e. target dummy) and I'm pooling. Am I doing something wrong? Or is this not realistic?

  2. Does Rupture snapshot Elaborate Planning's buff? A-la druids with Bloodtalons/Tiger's Fury and Rip? Or does it update dynamically like most DOTs in-game??

shy dust
#

It does not snapshot

rigid mango
#
  1. no, you can essentially ignore it because with the amount of haste + haste procs + lucid the game has to offer rn you don't really have to pool and can give or take ignore buff minmaxing

  2. no, bleeds are dynamic and the only thing that snapshots is subt/ns/ss/exsang

shy dust
#

And you won’t get 100% uptime

the proc rate stays the same

so, if only 1 spawns, it'll be the damage from 1 only?

having multiple pieces increases the damage

figured. coral just seemed meh the past few keys i tried it. on like +17-18s it vendetta + coral came up on bosses when the were arround 25% most of the time so i thought it's not that much worth on that keylevel but ig it pumps on trash hard

young orchid
#

In a raid encounter would you hold vanish and use it with your 3rd Bote ?

pseudo hamlet
#

@young orchid I'm not 100% sure, but I think whenever you play with bote(it has shorter CD) you should hold it for Vendetta+Vanish, not the other way round.

woven summit
#

Is void crystal titanshard any good for m+ because you get increased crit with the shield?

young orchid
#

Sorry @pseudo hamlet i did have a look could not find that specific answer, as well I'm running Vision so they are fairly close Bote and vendetta.

@young orchid then I guess it's even better to pair them up 🙂

whats a better defensive trait; lying in wait or vampiric speed?

Lying since Vamp needs to kill a mob

only reason i can think of

rigid mango
#

Blind being shorter CD than trinket is quite big

lean marten
#

interesting

tacit pebble
#

vamp speed is really good

#

on most fights

white wyvern
#

Literally every CD becomes shorter.

#

The only thing that makes it weird is with Kidney since you are waiting for stun DR most of the time anyway, but still good for rot and hard swaps.

fading wigeon
#

is it just a pad?

lean marten
#

i think he just came out of psychus and was at range of nzoth so PK inbetween gap closing

hidden bay
#

using coral on nzoth, throwing knife

#

so dots might stack coral

fading wigeon
#

ohhh

hidden bay
#

just check what hes throwing at

#

02:08 minutes

#

target switching

#

hes not in range of basher tentacle

#

so he throws knife

#

first of all i would say

#

hes trying to fish for tentacle procs

#

as hes playing with double carapace dagger

fading wigeon
#

great analysis

#

I am runing with two rank 2 TA.. SO I should be doing that too

lean marten
#

basically use ranged globals for PK if u cant step or get to target within next global

is the 2% damage with crits corruption (strikethrough) worth it to keep for M+ or raid?

Depends on what your corruption Budget is, your other corruptions and your Gear overall. Just sim it.

soz can someone clarify for me about stat priority in raid with subt/ss

#

currently i have 40%crit 21% haste 2% vers and about 26-27% mast since i just switch to raid with my rogue

#

should I make any change to them and how much?

dark crag
#

Sim topgear

#

Stats change with every piece you get

tiny parrot
#

some also told me that i should prioritize haste/mastery over haste/crit

dark crag
#

Slap him/her in my name and say "no"

tiny parrot
#

is that only apply to master assassin or both? i really dont know since there are not a lot of people who play subt in raid

dark crag
#

Both, always sim topgear

#

Get new piece -> topgear

#

yeah with current set i sim my rogue at 75k patchwerk 5mins

i guess it's fine atm

can you not re-stealth as night elf on a boss fight with shadowmeld?

no. non encounter you can restealth

#

yep. if you quick enough, i saw my friend did that once

#

i play void elf assa pepehands

strange python
#

alright thanks

lean marten
#

it works on some m+ bosses, def not in raid encounters

tiny parrot
#

actually you can benefit from ss in raid encounter with shadowmeld, but not subt

#

only bonus dmg from the trait, not the talent

Whats a good azerite/essence setup for n'zoth mythic? stacking NP if possible and vision minor for better/more vendettas?

hey guys im a level 24 assassination rogue (although subtlelty sounds alot more interesting, i've heard its a rather empty spec w/o shadow dance) and i was wondering what my rotation should be.
my current rotation is cheap shot > garrote > poisoned knife > sinister strike > [evisc. if lesser creature and rupture if beefy] > autos + sinister strike w/ elaborate planning

subtle tundra
#

its level 24, until higher levels the class misses a lot of important abilities

#

you shouldnt worry about it

#

the game essentially starts at lvl 120

zinc coyote
#

how do i take this and see what has EB & SS on it to know what to roll for next

#

yes, i know my dmg is low. corruption is balanced.

#

i got shoulders with eb/ss already so not worried about that slot

subtle tundra
#

you go to the azerite vendor and look though the items

#

also master poisoner Weirdchamp

strange python
#

you could try setting it on patchwerk 6 targets and like 40sec

zinc coyote
#

also, pvp set up, clearly 🙂

strange python
#

it should select ss/eb pieces then i think?

zinc coyote
#

MP subt and mfd

#

oh shit

#

good lookin out pika

#

ty

strange python
#

idk if it works

#

lemme know

zinc coyote
#

ill keep yall posted!

subtle tundra
#

you need SS for the pvp setup

zinc coyote
#

yeah it'd be pretty wild if i had what i was askin for lul

subtle tundra
#

the chest has SS

zinc coyote
#

but really, that's a gear set. im in outlaw most the time

so pins only mention gushing wounds and infinite stars, do i take that as everything else isnt good?

but conflict is still good

someone else should answer lol

edgy pawn

lucid and breath and vision/c&s

#

choice depending on dungeon, key level, your group, etc

vision is more single target/prio damage

yea i had been previously using the coral and spyglass but then got the dice this morning

ive messed around with the torment a bit and it seems alright, but I preferred the extra crit from spyglass

With subt on raden, do you pandemic the emp garrote or use vanish and 3x emp garrote when adds spawn? (no ss)

hidden bay
#

the first vanish u use 1 garrote on raden, 1 on crackling stalker and 1 on night terror

#

and second one obviously on raden

#

as it is burn phase

crimson palm
#

Ye i was asking about the first one

hidden bay
#

yes, u throw garrote on both adds

#

u get rupture on raden before, then one of the adds and then its time for tripple garrote and last rupture on the add

#

to maintain both dots on all 3 targets

#

and u obv use toxic blade on crackling stalker aswell since its priority target

crimson palm
#

Ye im doing that

hidden bay
#

u keep blood of the enemy aswell for that

#

u dont use on pull

crimson palm
#

You sure about that?

hidden bay
#

yes

#

u have a bigger gain from that

#

and u dont lose it

crimson palm
#

Garrote doesn't do that much dmg tho

hidden bay

with 3x ss it does

hallow kraken
#

i am simming almost 1k more with WV compared to BOTE, should i stick witth bote or go WV? i just ask because of the mobility restrictions with WV

hidden bay
#

@crimson palm ok since u are playing without ss, use vanish garrote on boss only

#

and keep rupture on the other targets

#

without ss its not "worth" it to keep vanish 10 seconds longer than you should

#

and bote on pull

crimson palm
#

Aight

woven pine
#

@hallow kraken look for time periods where you can utilise the buff for 18s - even if it means losing out on a few seconds, if not possible go bote, remember you're probably simming patchwerk not light or heavy movement.

#

Patchwerk means you need to be glued to the boss and not moving the whole fight

honest vessel
#

@hallow kraken WV sims much better than bote most of the time, bote is better for a lot of fights tho. Also try simming with subt over MA for bote

hallow kraken
#

ya subt is simming higher...hmm

#

how does that affect rotation

sterile ocean

if running vision major when do u use ur second vanish? on CD? or wait for next line up?

cobalt pelican
#

on cd is fine with subterfuge

#

and the sim is fine, target error is 0.1% and the difference between an 80 agi gem and a 120 agi gem is <0.1%

#

obviously you wouldn't put the 80 in, or the 120 probably anyway but you've tagged it t o force use so

tiny finch
#

how does blood of the enemy works with vendetta?

#

im checking logs and a bunch of rogues are using it

#

it does not pair with the 2nd vendetta right?

#

should i hold it or use it on cd?

cobalt pelican
#

hold it unless you won't get another vendetta in the fight

tiny finch
#

ok!

#

is it worth dropping a font for a vita even if it sims lower?

#

460 vita 435 font

cobalt pelican
#

depends on the drop really

#

if it's an insignificant drop, then i'd consider it strongly

unborn pendant
#

What Azerite should I be gambling for?

cobalt pelican
#

goraks is the only long term piece you might use

#

if your gear is bad, loa helm, gorak/extravagant/tentsshoulders, cephalohide chest are all fine items

tiny finch
#

what about the hood of slithering loa?

unborn pendant
#

Loa seems like it would be really good long-term

hidden bay
#

It’s okay unless u get raden head

tiny finch
#

im not getting rade'ns ,mythic for a while

#

hahah

#

got lucky on the loa

hidden bay
#

Well either loa or pvp head

tiny finch
#

just dropped drest'agath's trinket, how bad is it for the raid?

#

will sim on break

unborn pendant
#

Is Loa comparable to the Ra-den one, or is it pretty bad by comparison?

hidden bay
#

raden>loa/pvp

#

because raden has NP on it

#

and HoD

#

lot of people play like 3x DD, 2x HoD, 1 Blightborne

unborn pendant
#

Ayo, how does Enveloping Leviathan stack up? I rolled fucking two of them

hidden bay
#

but also 3x DD, 1x HoD, 1x NP, 1x Blightborne

unborn pendant
#

It's probably great for Outlaw at least?

hidden bay
#

prob mostly played due to ppl not having anything else maybe

#

yea has wits/ace

unborn pendant
#

And OP

#

Well, I can make this work.

hidden bay
#

aslong u can play around ur azerites to have the "optimal" azerites it doesnt matter for outlaw

unborn pendant
#

Well I'm sitting on uhh

3x Ace and 3x Wits because I have one very very good piece for it and two very very good pieces for it in situations where I don't have any of the other two pieces for it.

honest needle
#

Is 3ss and 3 HOD good for m+ i dont have any EB so im thinking 3 ss and 3 hod

#

or is outlaw better then that

zenith wren
#

if you enjoy outlaw as well as assa then you should probably go outlaw in m+, it's statistically better and easier to gear in terms of azerites

honest needle
#

i mean i have gear for outlaw and gear to do sin 3ss and 3 hod

#

is 3ss and 3 hod better then outlaw for ST >

#

would that be better to run on tyranical weeks

#

and then use outlaw for fort weeks ?

#

since i dont have any eb

zenith wren
#

it depends on which difficulty you run your keys tbh, because u can pretty much run anything ~+15 content without depleating. considering that you do not have any echoing blades i'd say outlaw is your safer bet because even if it is a tyra week you will still do adds. tbh simming would offer a more precise answer due to the factors that will contribue to the keys u run (pull size affixes procs corruptions party comp). so supposing that 3ss 3 hod would be better on ST than OL the latter spec will compensate in terms of aoe. in terms of utility ol beats assa, that's a given

hello i am wondering as a assasian rogue that getting into mythic raiding, is 17% haste good or is it low?

Is 81k sim with 30 corruption (cant go for 39 since every other corruption surpass it) enough atm ? Or should I go for more than 39 with this higher resistance % ? I am speaking about mythic progress *

do we use vanish after the opener's garrote falls off, and if so, what do you do with the offsync from vendetta later?

#

i dont remember the answer from uldir

gusty mirage
#

are you playing subt or not?

rancid bobcat
#

yes

cobalt pelican
#

if you're not playing shrouded, vanish when garrote is within pandemic range (normally just after your first tb expires), you can kinda sync to the 2:10 tb later in the fight, but if it's inconvenient don't worry about it too much and just use them off sync

#

if you're playing shrouded, first vanish on garrote expiration and yes always sync later unless it costs you a cast

dang 1 shrouded doesnt even show up on the radar

Cheat death is only ever really replaced by elusiveness in kr/temple and in bursting weeks

Granted kr temple esp on tyr, possibly not temple on fort.

#

Technically if you feel like you aren't proccing cheat often running elusiveness or leeching is obviously really good, but even if I trust myself I feel like saving a key because I got wombo'd by something is generally better than taking a bit less damage, unless that's an obvious reason you wipe(d).

high FH keys you'd also run elusiveness, or whenever eudora is up

stoic token
#

on on tyr weeks like this one will u swap VOP for conflict?

burnt dome
#

Really depends on the traits youre running

rigid mango
#

I honestly never play strife

stoic token
#

i run triple SS , one echo , ttk, NP

burnt dome
#

For M+ there's no real 1 answer is the best one, it all depends on your group set up (do you need more trash dmg, more boss dmg, more prio bolstering dmg), the traits you're running (I personally don't like running only 1 echoing, so I run either 0 or 2+), yours stats, amount of restealths, etc etc

rigid mango
#

Sounds like vop town to me

burnt dome
#

but yeah I'd keep Vision for those traits

stoic token
#

it pairs well with BOE .. im running 15 Junkyard. so last boss seems to be able to open and have up for lust 2nd phase

burnt dome
#

If you're only running 1x Echoing, BotE doesn't have as much value

#

You could consider going iris instead

visual mesa
#

yo boys, does anyone have a WA combo point tracker? i dont wanna upload one of the packs

#

i just want some combo points

arctic walrus
#

you can still upload the packs but delete everything else

#

or just go on wago and search up for combo point tracker

rigid mango
#

Nah I would never consider iris even if 1 EB

#

Blood is better on ST, and still good enough for aoe

#

Sin doesn't have those "free GCD's" to use iris on aoe like other classes do, and bote is also very easily incorporated as an easy source of good cleave + prio and not always aoe.

stoic token
#

would u recc running more Echo? seems like only downside be on tyrannical weeks but outside of that u recc 2+ or none?

#

assuming 3 SS is always a must

rigid mango
#

I don't really think EB is better than shrouded

#

So not really no

burnt dome
#

There's a reason Morningwind is running iris, and it's cause it is really decent when you dont have EB value

rigid mango
#

Morningwind also runs whatever the fuck he feels like

#

His builds change every other day and he's just really good, doesn't mean what he's playing is correct

stoic token
#

I can run SSx3 , NP, Echox2

burnt dome
#

Saying "never play consider iris" is a wrong statement though

#

there are plenty assa m+ builds where iris > bote

rigid mango
#

I don't think Iris should ever really be used, if I'll be honest.

burnt dome
#

Guess we don't agree ^^

rigid mango
#

Unless you're truly in scuffed territory

#

Havn't used it since I got bote and I have no intention of swapping back either.

#

Works too well for whatever you want in whatever situation and doesn't limit the spec like iris does.

white wyvern
#

Iris is boring af anyway.

burnt dome
#

It might not be good for your gear/stats/group comp, there's plenty of possibilities where it is

#

I play 3x ss 3x heart + iris

#

sometimes even rbeath major

stoic token
#

Anyone think I should run the Echo x2 over what I am running?

burnt dome
#

@stoic token depends on your group again, but 2x echo is definitely not bad on this week. TTK however is better for bolstering prio damage

#

What is the average keylevel you're playing Frizz?

rigid mango
#

I still don't see the reason to play iris there

stoic token
#

13-15

rigid mango
#

possibly breath ig? but again, assa doesn't have free GCD's like other classes to use breath

burnt dome
#

@stoic token perfectly fine to go 2x eb then, BotE also has more value then

stoic token
#

u take ttk over NP then

burnt dome
#

Yes

stoic token
#

flat wadi
#

What traits are good or needed for assa to work in m+ respectively st raiding?

rigid mango
#

For raid it's just whatever sims best, generally DD + NP/HoD/TTK And other stat ones

#

For m+ it's shrouded suffocation + EB, TTK, HoD, niche usages of NP and also other stat ones in general again.

boys, when i cloak madness bomb (carapace), do i stun others? guess no right?

guess yes

tropic ocean

@versed bobcat yes and u also drain their sanity so dont use immunities until very end of p3

oh ok cuz nobody ever was surprised to be stunned before countdown ran out

maybe its the overflow of things

@magic thorn dont sim dungeon slice on assa

why not?

It was primary to show my aviable items, because i have few 475 Crit/mastery pieces, i also have a 6Target 40sec sim but still cant decide

anya wa for split personality i got destroyed by it on mage quarters

true nexus
#

bote feels pretty dank as sin in visions

raven mica
#

I’d imagine using it with like triple SS and an ex sang setup would be nutty for killing bosses

#

Why no dungeon slice @subtle tundra

#

Hey guys, I’ve seen a lot more assa rogues in m+ lately. Are they somehow more viable now?

@surreal harbor I think they were always available tbh

Any tips to doing a 5 mask run this week? Want to try one for the 470 corrupted item, and I feel like I'm geared enough to do it

loud light
#

know your route ahead of time, focus on having enough burst to delete the elites, get the weakaura to track gift of the titans ICD and potion colors so you can drink all the +sanity potions you find

#

if possible proc gift before doing a scary pull like the big corruption beast guy in mage quarter, makes things a lot more reliable

raven mica
#

He isn’t scary this week

#

No leaden foot

loud light
#

relative to everything else in the zone he still has the most potential to delete you

raven mica
#

I also usually just orb him now.

#

If my gift is like 40+ sec left

loud light
#

anyway the lost areas this week have the combo of split personality + that fear circle thing and you can sort of screw yourself if they both proc at the same time and the 'open spot' in the split is against a wall or something

#

so if you can, try to never stand next to a wall when split is coming

#

or save shadowstep to try to port out if that happens

raven mica
#

That’s what cloak is for

loud light
#

if it's their first 5 mask he asked for tips, I'm not going to just say yolo everything and cloak if you're in trouble

#

lol

raven mica
#

It’s a better and easier solution than shadow step is

loud light
naive wigeon
#

I think I'll attempt a 4 mask run first, to see how that goes

#

I've tried attempts on 5 in the last week and a half, I feel like I can do it if I don't fuck up on stupid shit

#

Best route to take is, straight into dwarven, then do old and drums on shaw, trade, mage, then drums will be back up again for alleria?

#

Or mage first

#

?

drifting cloud
#

honestly as assa if you have 3ss3np and bote

#

bosses are so easy

#

but I usually went mage first, didnt need lust for shaw just used it on alleria instead

#

Currently my SS build, is 3 SS, 2 Echoing, and 1 NP

#

And I only got rank 2 BOTE since I can't bring myself to spam enough bg's to get r3

subtle tundra
#

if you dont get r3 then r2 isnt worth it

naive wigeon
#

Ah, that much of a difference huh

subtle tundra
#

yes

naive wigeon
#

What would the better alternative be then, just breath r3?

Why is the only corruption I get god damn mastery stats

4 times from visions

#

🤔

#

Surprisingly not the worst sim in the world

true nexus
#

the trick to this week in 5 mask if youre not confident is to

#

have a good set for bosses with font or something and just take the rest of the vision slowly

#

you never run out time really

#

you run out of sanity cause of playin bad

#

just k'bab on cd and clear slow and safe

#

if youre at 14 its so easy

#

utilize gift as much as you can on stuff like the blob in mage

#

like a semi big pull in dwarven

#

or the minibosses in trade

#

i gift both bosses in trade reliably

#

always go for bear buff/vers buff and gbank buff

naive wigeon
#

Well, I tried a 4 mask solo first, died due to my own corruption being too high. Switched my gear to the double dose build instead since higher ilvl, put corruption down and managed to do all

#

Meh corruption

#

But hey I did it, so I'm happy

hushed lion
#

the only tip for visions is to not have 40+ corruption. you will get void debuff which increases shadow damage taken. your grand delusion will oneshot you

I run 55 :)

I’m currently on mobile and can’t see pins to preface this. I am trying to parse well and maximize my output. I have read icyveins a number of times, how can I find out what I’m doing wrong in my rotation?

crisp hollow
#

for starters @heavy osprey read Wowhead or Ravenholdt to be safe, and if there are no discrepancies there with what you're doing, post some logs for some nerds to analyze

ruby oar
#

Purification protocol is a good essence to use in the vissions, good aoe damage + stun

And you can use it at every minute

it is a thing

if using vision major and master assassin do i hold vanish until it lines up with vendetta gain or just pop on cd?

is logic loop of division useless on nzoth mythic?

use both on CD with that build iirc

maybe try to have a TB for vanish
