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
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 ?

Hey, I really just started rogue recently, and had a question for the Rotations in the sin guide 
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? 
can you show where it says that in the guide, for context?
it just means if you are using that talent and also have SS
for gems are you guys using top gear or stats weight?
top gear
and replace the gems or not in the option?
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
yeah gems are extremely expensive
then enable replace
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?
If you get 3 on your first mut. You mut a 2nd time before rup.
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
Every vendetta outside of your opener
thx
bloody hell lads shrouded is bad for raiding
It's aight
its ok but theres no way you can get like 99 avg after killing all bosses with it 
You can
It's not the best but it's still aight
And it gets better the faster the bosses die
idk man stjern has told me otherwise 
Unlucky.
truly unfortunate
what kind of setup would u guys run in Workshop tyrannical?
azerite traits
is 1 Np good?
yes np is good
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
yeah thought np would be decent dmg + extra energy regen
Yeh, it's good
running 1 less SS in there would probably not be good right
id trade off 480 head without SS for 465 with
aight
Blood major, minors lucid breath vision?
Yessir
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.
I'm using it on Xanesh also due to the overlap with adds
playing cleave shit on vex is trolling
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
except if you have 0 dhs 0 fire mages 0 bm hunters 0 fury warriors
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.
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
Alright, just made my planning 100% easier, thanks.
You switch to the enforcer if prio damage is needed, but no reason to run the padding build
How good is Deadly Momentum for Assa in M+ ? I currently run Rank 3 Twilight + Rank 2 Twisted and could equip a Rank 2 Momentum, but i dont know if it would be worth it.
When simming Dungeonslice the Momentum is 800 Dps ahead of the Twisted but im unsure about it.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/t1CB7wqjJqY3hSYbcQ5TE9
6 Target Patchwerk ?
yes
i wouldnt cleanse anything for that
What would you suggest wearing as azerite pieces ? Stay 3SS and only swap for Dungeons like Motherload or Waycrest ?
stay with 3ss
thanks alot
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
Its not rly about the cleansing got a 2nd shard in bank
Up to you at that point
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
sim apl uses it with vendetta/vanish window since it is a 2min CD trinket, try that
good to know ty
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
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 
It’s worth it to sim.
Corruption >= itemlvl > statweights
was going crit and haste, but seems crit/mastery is probably more versatile?
Stat weights are dynamic depending on your gear
^#
Sim yourself.
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?
crit mastery for m+
I think in general for single target haste and crit are best
w/e in raid
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
p sure just pick ilvl when catching up either way
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
With catching up I assumed he had really shit gear
St is just rng, i've had all 4 stats come out on top before
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
it's 437, so pretty much anything will be an upgrade
not rly
albeit, it's that low b/c of both my trinkets
430 coral is better then most trinkets x)
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
Anyone who runs M+ at a pretty high level? like i dunno 15+? lol that could help with sims?
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
Hey condensed life force sims higher but do we agree that BoE is better on most raid fights due to how they are designed ?
I use CLF because it sims significantly higher then BotE for me
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
just as usual
clf is usually simming higher
but bote has better burst/dmg windows
for example queen azshara like we all remember

Silly question, but is anyone using crimson tempest with good results in m+? I've never talented it actually.
kinda annoying 😛 finally out dps'ed the other rogue in my guild, and now the logs wont even prove it
thats the point of skitra logs .. you dont know if you actually did
unless you both logged
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/2FJ7GTru87MVtcCkS7jpqr so these gloves apparently are sweet asf but my corruption is at critical mass and I am not sure what I should be cleansing
top gear lets you cleanse!
orly
yup, theres a button at the top to purify everything you tick, or you can purify individual ones
Awesome
No
For m+, should use these stats or for example, get more crit and vers?

ooh
and idk why u sim multi target for 5 min lol
fairly new, trying things around with the sims
alrighty, thanks!

vop minor turns warthion into such a pog fight
just did a pog log on it 
the thing however is do you hold vanish for vandetta still? or vanish outside of vandetta?
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
vop on carapace M, whats your thoughts
no

yes
if I wanna use subterfuge, do I open and attack from vanish with double garrote or just one?
do u have shrouded suffocation?
nah
alright. Not familiar with discord
so for mythic+. 3x Echoing blades, 3x Twist the Knife?
although, that kinda feels like your single target's gonna suffer a bit.
3ss fill rest with eb/hod/ttk maybe 1 np
shrouded suffication 3x?
3x ss and 3x ttk is optimal, that doesn't seem like alot of aoe?
its not optimal
Is Eternal Torment on mythic N'zoth AoE? Can I feint it?
opinions on Vision minor w/ spyglass and coral vs Strife minor w/ spyglass plumage for M+?
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
also keep in mind strife can sometimes take a while to stack up and can drop stacks between packs
Are people running blood because of corruption procs? My sims keep saying that shard is still better
Guardian I mean
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
thanks for the info!
marked for death or vigor for 5 mask run?
Not matter
kk thanks :D, ill try with MFD and see how i go
with vision of perfection does it proc more on aoe? could you potentially run some whacky build with vision and 3 nothing personal on aoe?
It doesnt
even if it procs from aoe it gives you no aoe dmg increase
Hey guys is this ring good for assas? Or should I try to get haste mastery?
well u could sim that stuff in gear compare
Top gear or gear compare?
i believe i said gear compare
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
@outer lotus ty so much!
which potions does rogue use atm?
should i use breath when target between 80% and 20% life?
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.

Haven't played sin in a while in m+. Used to be that after a certain point its better to just spam FoK instead of using finishers. Is that still the case?
Pretty sure no
And below that youre what, just keepiing up 4 bleeds and envenoming?
trying to figure out how some people its simming blood of the enemy higher and its not for me : /
for mythic dungeons, are you better off going twilight devastation, or Infinite Stars?
td
with 3xSS and 3x EB, right?
hopefully next week I can 5 mask and start pulling in 470 corrupted gear
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.
are you simming normal patchwork or specifically target dummy
patchwerk
there's a target dummy option
try simming that then compare
that 31k is taking into account lust and all available raid buffs
Also do you have bl/flask/pot/rune/food enabled?
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?
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
its as good as it can get with current built apl
=]
99,% players wont reach that dps in a real scenario so u shouldnt worry about that part
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?
hello guyz, is there a tab where i can see bis traits, stats and trinkets for m+?
wowhead guide
does our Wound Poison reduces the healing of Drest'agath?
Yes
is vop minor worth for pumping ravagers on hivemind M?
also whats the best way to use coral on that boss?
is there a good build/guide for horrific visions if we want tosolo and try to push some cloak lvls?
3xSS with subterfuge/iron wire/exsang talents is very effective for 5 masks. drest trinket or cyclo are very useful too
get a weakaura for internal CD on gift of titans and pull around that
I am not sure what that is but I will check online for that weakaura. But cheers.
just search gift of the titans on wago and some will pop up
How is assasination in low keys 13-15 range? Most pugs pull pack by pack and not really huge pulls..I am guessing fan of knives aoe isnt enough to go against combat's aoe?
No it’s perfectly fine
its never going to be as good as outlaw, but its ok ish, gets worse at lower keys
Elaborate Planning questions:
-
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?
-
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??
It does not snapshot
-
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
-
no, bleeds are dynamic and the only thing that snapshots is subt/ns/ss/exsang
And you won’t get 100% uptime
ok, thank you 🙂
How do you best handle synapses/Psychus as assa?
So for the upcomming week of horrific visions, i've heard that you can use toys like autohammer and shit to interrupt the mage quarter boss, do you guys use those or ? and if so, which should i stock up on ?
Racing flag is the best
has big range, doesn't drop stealth
you can pop it down before pulling him without having to run all the way there
Oh really ? so he cant cast if its in his spot ? thats awesome haha
he teleports there and instantly cancels his cast as if you went into his melee range
Niiice, is it the floating or the normal ? or doesnt it matter ?
idk, i just know it's called just Racing Flag, never really cared what it looks like
Alright 😛 Thanks

hmm
just now, 2 tentacles spawned from my corruption
someone said that it sums all damage into only 1 tentacle
What?
2 tentacles proc'd from my corruption
somebody said to me that only 1 spawns, but sums the damage from both corruption
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
got it
dmg doesnt change dependent on how many you get
you can still have multiple tendies out at once with only one piece
( :
Cant wait to farm visions after reset to get 5x void ritual pieces :^)
Thats what Im going for too
Got to get that full set before it gets good right?
Thats what I was told
there are far worse corruptions than Void Ritual
just boosted a rogue to 120 and never played rogue before, really into pvp, looking for someone to be able to teach me the class
!guide
start there
have any of you tried using font in m+?
yes
what do you think bout it?
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
idk I also play vop minor all the time so font is desynced from vendetta all the time
yea that was so awkward not knowing wether i should hold ven for a few seconds to wait on font or just font after ven
Is Evoke Anguish on mythic N'zoth AoE? Feintable?
no
Just play elusiveness

3rd post in the pins
Whats the best race on horde to play sin rogue on Troll?
What content? But the difference is smal between races. So i would go with what u prefer
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/qNjU4w8nzxP2NdNDw7wrCT its showing considered life force in major O_O over bote
that's probably common for many even after the CLF nerf. Many prefer bote as you can see from logs but the sim is nothing unusual
ahh raid and m+ content kev
So thinking of getting my rogue up to date for the first time since s2 and was wondering what essences do you use for m+?
blood/breath/strife/lucid is a good start
lucid minor is disgusting, just the minor is more powerful then some decent majors for rogues...
In a raid encounter would you hold vanish and use it with your 3rd Bote ?
@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.
(and there are pins for that I guess)
Is void crystal titanshard any good for m+ because you get increased crit with the shield?
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 🙂
Thanks.
How good is formless Void exactly?
pretty niche
Hey which corruption should i go for in assassination ?
The ones that you have in your inventory
Hi what azerite traits should I look for in a raid build?
I just picked up my rogue again so have nothing to sim myself. Thanks for info, struggled to find a go-to starter for ten guide on it
most of the raid pieces are good for raiding
I narrowly sim highest with 3DD 3HoD with my IS Set, but highest with 3DD 2HoD 1 NP in the none-IS one by quite a bit.
Just wanna go 3 hod tbh, can't wait until it outperforms everything else
x3 NP visions major gang
Hello guys I have a quick question.
My Sims tell me to go subterfuge instead of master assassin, how should I use BotE now in a vendetta window if not with vanish + finisher?
Just use it along with TB?
u could do a quick sim and check the spell order
Thank you both
gl on boxes bois
Wrong day sir
nah 👀 you're just living in the future
whats a better defensive trait; lying in wait or vampiric speed?
Lying since Vamp needs to kill a mob
what about in m+?
Vamp is great for bursting etc
It's good in PvP. Bad in PvE.
Blind being shorter CD than trinket is quite big
interesting
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.
anyone know why this rogue throws poisoned knife on nzoth in this log? https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/FvNgRcqDGKHmzxLW#fight=2&type=casts&source=11&view=timeline
is it just a pad?
i think he just came out of psychus and was at range of nzoth so PK inbetween gap closing
ohhh
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
basically use ranged globals for PK if u cant step or get to target within next global

!guide
anyone able to teach me how to play assa rogue well in pvp
is the 2% damage with crits corruption (strikethrough) worth it to keep for M+ or raid?
@hoary apex
Depends on what your corruption Budget is, your other corruptions and your Gear overall. Just sim it.
@strange python
Check #pvp
People usually answer questions there and it has a pinned Guide

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?
some also told me that i should prioritize haste/mastery over haste/crit
Slap him/her in my name and say "no"
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
can you not re-stealth as night elf on a boss fight with shadowmeld?
no. non encounter you can restealth
but it works in m+ on trash?
alright thanks
it works on some m+ bosses, def not in raid encounters
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
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
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
you could try setting it on patchwerk 6 targets and like 40sec
also, pvp set up, clearly 🙂
it should select ss/eb pieces then i think?
ill keep yall posted!
you need SS for the pvp setup
yeah it'd be pretty wild if i had what i was askin for lul
the chest has SS
but really, that's a gear set. im in outlaw most the time
i hit a gear set and typed /simc to do a droptimizer. but thanks man for the super relevant input
Any good? How is the on-use?
~ 2% of your dmg, sometimes less
sometimes 10% of your dmg lolers
so pins only mention gushing wounds and infinite stars, do i take that as everything else isnt good?
in other words, only shoot for those 2?
There is no way to target corruption so you can't shoot for anything.
Just sim what the rngods hand you.
ty bruv
Can even be 100% of your damage
is vulpera bis for assa?
yes
is dead eye spyglass 475 huge for sin?
i mean its not BiS but its still damn good
stat weights are crit>haste
that's not true
stats are volatile as fuck right now
sim the trinket, see how good it is
^ i was haste for the longest time and now mastery according to todays sims
apparently 2391 haste is too much
I mean depending on his gear it might be trash for him
in ST scenarios you always always always isim
spyglass should be decent, but there are better trinkets
stat hierarchy's are fluid
hey guys whats the best essense for this week m+
pretty much always blood major
yea i need the minors i mostly use vision of perfection for terianical
should i replace it with conflic and strife
i think its lucid visions breath?
but conflict is still good
someone else should answer lol
lucid and breath and vision/c&s
choice depending on dungeon, key level, your group, etc
vision is more single target/prio damage
c&s more AOE
Might be impossible to get anything over rank 1 from weekly chest. Kms
Can anyone help me with some trinket opinions for M+, 430 coral, 475 dice, 465 spyglass, 460 torment
coral and dice i'd say
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
i'd say dice and spyglass, 430 coral isn't huge in m+ imo
use dice and spyglass
cool thanks guys, I'll give it a try 🙂
Electrostatic potential wrists any decent?
they are worse than normal bracers on same ilvl
With subt on raden, do you pandemic the emp garrote or use vanish and 3x emp garrote when adds spawn? (no ss)
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
Ye i was asking about the first one
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
Ye im doing that
You sure about that?
Garrote doesn't do that much dmg tho


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
@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
Aight
@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
@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
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fgZzqsmdj76gCuFFnB6SG6 this sim dosent make sence lol
wants me to replace a 120 agi gem with a 80 agi gem
if running vision major when do u use ur second vanish? on CD? or wait for next line up?
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
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?
hold it unless you won't get another vendetta in the fight
ok!
is it worth dropping a font for a vita even if it sims lower?
460 vita 435 font
depends on the drop really
if it's an insignificant drop, then i'd consider it strongly
What Azerite should I be gambling for?
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
what about the hood of slithering loa?
Loa seems like it would be really good long-term
It’s okay unless u get raden head
Well either loa or pvp head
Is Loa comparable to the Ra-den one, or is it pretty bad by comparison?
raden>loa/pvp
because raden has NP on it
and HoD
lot of people play like 3x DD, 2x HoD, 1 Blightborne
Ayo, how does Enveloping Leviathan stack up? I rolled fucking two of them
but also 3x DD, 1x HoD, 1x NP, 1x Blightborne
It's probably great for Outlaw at least?
aslong u can play around ur azerites to have the "optimal" azerites it doesnt matter for outlaw
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.
Oops lmao
Do people use ineffable truth in pve,? 50% cd reduction on abilities when it procs
Real men run 3x NP and VoP
\45./*-741

question: Does corruption proc chance stack or only the damage component? for example if I run twilight dev rank 1 and rank 2 for total of 75 corruption, is this the same as twilight dev rank 3?
Just the damage
Okay, so I just did a super small sample size, looks like corruption proc chances are just random? sometimes I Get like 6 procs of TD in 5mil damage and other times I get 3
just trying to figure out what pieces of gear with what corruption I want to keep. Does Sin only want the proc corruption or are stat corruption good too? ie proc mastery etc?
top gear my guy
herodamage has some guidelines for corruption
grain of salts everywhere tho
use ur brain + sims
it all depends on everything
Whats everyones best opinion for pots in Horrific Visions
Mainly when you're pushing
Agi pots for bosses
i have to haste proc corruptions for 1200 is that any good?
my haste goes up to 260% tdoes that actually benefit me?
Sim it
i simmed it i know it is better for me but when i go from like 16% haste to 260% idk if theres a haste cap that all of that is just extra or not
If it’s a dps increase over other things use it.
does FoK build coral stacks?
ST essences: Blood major, Conflict, Breath & Lucid minor?
sim 🙂
pvp gave me ss+ttk 480 azerite, now for 1eb dungeons i wear not only 465 xd
is 50-55% uptime for surging vitality a realistic uptime?
On which bosses is Infinite Stars good?
cool, got the best trinket in the game
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
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
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
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?
hey guys is the BiS build still the 3xDD 1xTK 1xNP 1xBI or has the VoP build taken over somehow?
neither.
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 *
Or, to make question more simple, is thing from beyond now lesser dmg ? 😄
Odd that sim wants me to have 1 TK instead of a 3rd DD for ST
Do we have any HV guides for Assa rogues? Seeing that they'll have guarantee drops of 470ilvl items with corruption I think I'll give them a go.
youtube
@tropic ocean is Shadenox guide good one? I meant this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4UJUax3tUQ
Hey !
Finally, a full clear with all the masks ! I will do Orgrimmar next week as well ! A big thanks to the guy who warned me about the spot to know the bad potion in the comments of one of my previous videos !
Hope you enjoy, and thanks for watching !
Hi, I have a little problem: I have 70 of corruption.
I am aware that I have to increase my cape, but as it is, can you tell me which corrupted parts are not essential and on which I can remove the trait of corruption? (I want to optimize for pvp, not for pve).
Thx <3

Can you stack Twisted appendage when it's the same lvl ?
Yes
The my'das talisman is pretty shit right?
How to sim Surging Vitality 3 ? How many % uptime please if i never used that corruption?
for keys the lowest one
for raids it depends on the fight
xanesh is around 50% for me usually
you just have to try it on
ok ty
40-50% seems reasonable
what do i do with my titan residuum. I need chest and head with ss and eb. Do i save for the 480 almost guarenteed shoulder piece or do i keep buying the 465 till i get it
How much is vop r3 worth it for us right now? I've got 2x NP so more vendettas would be better, but I don't know if bosses will live along to see much use
Is there a way to sim purification with a socket on raidbots?
3xNP + Visions major gang wassup
why is someone reacting feelycraft to me wtf ?
that's legit how you sim for a fight with surging vitality
you do the fight
with it once
or like 2 / 3 w/e
then you look at the uptime
and sim accordingly

is it wortth going bote for raid
if u just cannot get double dose traits
for shit
Should i line up vanish with vendetta/blood if i play subterfuge in raid?
I have simmed and it puts iris ahead, I'm majorly wondering about the actual gameplay
just dont have gear for MA atm
with subterfuge, you use BotE right before u toxic blade with vendetta or is there any other time u wanna use it since you don't line it up with vanish like with MA i guess?
aight ty
damn that's a lot of upgrades
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
are you playing subt or not?
yes
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
It's a fair bit worse than the standard setup for raw output
am i fine for ST with traits and trinks?
these are my choices
coral 430
455 badge
465 spyglass
i can also go for 3 vendettas but afaik it only sims better and doesnt really work
I would suggest simming top gear
hey guys, same traits for stormwind vision as for orgrimmar ?
y
nice thx, wish me a lagg free run 🙂
use on use trinkets for bosses like gladiator badge or font or stuff
so they melt fast with exsang 3np 3ss
and superior agi pot
sim them all and see which is best
usually bote/clf major breath lucid conflict minor (or iris if u have expedients usually)
The major is great, just hard to use and quite punishing.
80% or <20%
but u basically only use it in drest
as u can just spam it due tot he nature of teh fight
Yes, thats where I will use it. Just didnt played it yet so I came 😄
do i need condensed life force for raids ?
cz i have the option of buyin it from my alts now
so i have the option between rank 3 CLF / rank 3 VOP / rank 3 Blood
Sim it
How much trust is there for Dugeon slice to help with M+ build?
Is it better to have a rank 2 infinite star or 1 vers from all sources (9%) + haste from all sources (12%)? Not sure as it is so random
@stoic token None.
oh hey bro
Seeing a lot of the top logs are now starting to run VoP minor
doesnt that break a lot of the cd line up - can someone explain the logic behind running this
not even for stat weight?
I have not been simc with it to pick gear.. just wondering if it has any viability
Nope. There is a pin in #wow-general you can use, but best would be to run multiple sims with different target counts/fight lengths replicating add fights and boss fights. Then digest all the sims using your brain.
anyone feel good running 40+ corrpution in dugeon? just run cheat death
or better said is there a real problem with running 40-50 corruption for any of u? I have been running 40 but think ing of pushing.
ive been handling 59 in +18 keys just have to realize when to use Cloak or leggo cleanse not to die
Is my sim trolling me? It wants me to use subterfuge with 0x SS?
Subterfuge without SS is comparable to MA, it has better scalling and with gear gets even more value
especially when you are stacked on crit and crit procs
dumb question then, what would opener be on Subterfuge without shrouded? still g r g?
depends on CP from mut but i do g m g r
okay - ty
I was under the impression you garrote just once
i was under impression you should refresh it in the last second of subterfuge to get prolonged increased garrote.
Sw with 5 Mask is kinda pain in the ass. Shaw is really hard with this weeks affix
Subt with no ss opener: gar, mut, mut, rup, vend, tb, mut
vanish 15s later and gar once again
u can look at the sims it doesn't gouble garr
or that ^ seems right
Yeah I mean diff is probably small either way right
What corruptions are us assa rogues after as prio?
hero damage has a chart
but basically whatever you can get ur hands on that sims the highest
@distant lava POOOG WELCOME BACK
@burnt dome no it's g m r not grg
I really wish I could get a fucking dagger from Nyalotha
I want to try out ASN but all I have are the 400 daggers you can buy on the AH
Is grevious ever a reason to choose leech poison ?
nop
cd and elusive are preference, some dungeons always elusive tho
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
on on tyr weeks like this one will u swap VOP for conflict?
Really depends on the traits youre running
I honestly never play strife
i run triple SS , one echo , ttk, NP
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
Sounds like vop town to me
but yeah I'd keep Vision for those traits
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
If you're only running 1x Echoing, BotE doesn't have as much value
You could consider going iris instead
yo boys, does anyone have a WA combo point tracker? i dont wanna upload one of the packs
i just want some combo points
you can still upload the packs but delete everything else
or just go on wago and search up for combo point tracker
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.
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
There's a reason Morningwind is running iris, and it's cause it is really decent when you dont have EB value
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
I can run SSx3 , NP, Echox2
Saying "never play consider iris" is a wrong statement though
there are plenty assa m+ builds where iris > bote
I don't think Iris should ever really be used, if I'll be honest.
Guess we don't agree ^^
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.
Iris is boring af anyway.
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
Anyone think I should run the Echo x2 over what I am running?
@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?
I still don't see the reason to play iris there
13-15
possibly breath ig? but again, assa doesn't have free GCD's like other classes to use breath
@stoic token perfectly fine to go 2x eb then, BotE also has more value then
u take ttk over NP then
Yes
ty
What traits are good or needed for assa to work in m+ respectively st raiding?
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.
@mighty elm 

Should I dot up things when heading towards tentacles on drest ?
Ones I am not suposed to dps I mean*
How do you guys decide on what Item you put a Socket ?
@distant lava What addon/WA displays your corruption like that?

Thanks.
guys can i have a quick reminder of assa opener with worldvein ? 🙂
( with master assassin no SS)

boys, when i cloak madness bomb (carapace), do i stun others? guess no right?
guess yes
@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
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/hZNBAd65Eg1sjT5k9E5Pnx
What Item would you guys put the socket on? i would put it on the shrine ring but i dont know if i want to play with the mechagon rings in the future? what would you recommend ?
well my rogue went from r0 to
@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
bote feels pretty dank as sin in visions
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
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
relative to everything else in the zone he still has the most potential to delete you
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
That’s what cloak is for
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
It’s a better and easier solution than shadow step is

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
?
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
!help
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
if you dont get r3 then r2 isnt worth it
Ah, that much of a difference huh
yes
What would the better alternative be then, just breath r3?
iris
Fair
3 ss 2np vs 2ss 2eb 1np, what should i go for in m+? (no bote yet)
Affixes don't change anything in that fight?
You've open space, just walk out and keep blasting him
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/jRGwcMt1NLX4HDPrgw6pa -> anyone who could check out and see if they can get better with a non-infinite star build?
<40corr
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
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
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 :)
Same, I also 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?
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
Purification protocol is a good essence to use in the vissions, good aoe damage + stun
And you can use it at every minute
Visions*
General rule of thumb---twisted appendage over twilight devastation right?
For ST?
yea
Do you think that running at 45 corruption is too risky?
Pretty fight dependent but at this point it probably isn’t

Assassination Essences overview: https://bit.ly/2XaZOVd
thanks @crisp hollow
is vision major with 3x NP actually a thing? looks fun tho
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?
answer me dad
!help
Bois how well does sin do in mythics? I kinda don't know if I bother gathering 2 sets of gear for outlaw and sin 
But maybe I should
-What do you guys think? 
depends on how far you wanna push assa in m+
