ANY TRUERS IN CHAT?

shrewd copper
#

@lean marten with the Xang need to go on SS right ?

boreal maple
#

big true

#

i hear stop dmg on phycus

#

i press exsang

lean marten
#

xang is subt, DS, xang

#

talents

rotund oak
#

spoken like a true sin rogue lul

lean marten
#

and SS + HoD traits

shrewd copper
#

oh, my bad, got confused

strange python
#

how bout yall play rogue and not 1 spec

bleak spoke
#

exsang and get off the boss "do you see me hitting it???"

boreal maple
#

gotta be a ๐Ÿ

#

tell otehrs to slowly stop

#

while u keep going

bleak spoke
#

tbh i'm a good boy though my boss damage parses are like significantly higher than my actual ones KEKW

#

they let my dhs and hunters pad in my guild FeelsBadMan

rotund oak
#

imagine pumping with IS proc when everyone says to stop

#

memes on logs

boreal maple
#

any boss dmg kekw

rotund oak
#

what a beast

boreal maple
#

impossible to be a good boi

lean marten
#

but how much proc corruptions ๐Ÿค”

boreal maple
#

cant wait to remove my TA so the only proc rng ill ever play is infinite stars on like pure st RNG log

limber lion
bleak spoke
#

i mean you have a dd and an envenom trait

boreal maple
#

again its prob cos u have those low azerites

#

so exsang/ss wont pull ahead

#

untill u have those

bleak spoke
#

needs like raden helm gorak tul's vexi chest kinda

wild lion
#

imagine playing alliance in eu and trying to find a decent raiding guild

mellow pier
#

Is BB better than heart?

bleak spoke
#

it is for me

limber lion
#

Yeah. But it's such a weird combo. Like I've been running TB with Vigor all this time and suddenly Deeper Strara pulls ahead

bleak spoke
#

might not be with more optimized gear

#

my shti is kinda scuffed

mellow pier
#

I should try it since crit is over 10 weight for me lol

#

At 42% even

bleak spoke
#

i have a strikethrough 2 in a slot with nothing else that's even close to decent atm

#

so ther'es that

mellow pier
#

But im not using coral so thats prob why

limber lion
#

Like I thought Deeper Strata goes hand in hand with Exsang and TB goes hand in Vigor. Deeper Strata just feels weird with TB

bleak spoke
#

not really like

mellow pier
#

Plume+GCB

bleak spoke
#

there's little correlation

#

it feels weird

limber lion
#

Sure, big Envenom crits with Bote + DS

bleak spoke
#

but it still does the damage

limber lion
#

Meh, I guess.

mellow pier
#

When u get more haste u dont need vigor

bleak spoke
#

yeah the damage just kinda sits in other parts of your rotation in a way

warm parcel
#

And DS also acts as a bigger buffer for mut crits

bleak spoke
#

oh weak we're 100% sure that we don't finish at 4 ever with deeper right

mellow pier
#

During hero with GCB and shit i overcap so fast lol

bleak spoke
#

or

warm parcel
#

You dont

#

But youre not gonna get those 4cp crits anyway

bleak spoke
#

yeh

warm parcel
#

But its 99% vigors useless

#

As ex makes it all gcd locked

#

At the rank 21 or whatever etu

distant lava
#

dropping lucid soon

#

this is madness

bleak spoke
#

what

#

dropping lucid?

#

no way

distant lava
#

ye

bleak spoke
#

what the ackshual

distant lava
#

sims lower for raz I'm pretty sure

bleak spoke
#

man

warm parcel
#

Its useless too at higher ex ranks

bleak spoke
#

that's kinda nuts

boreal maple
#

with 90% uptime

distant lava
#

don't need energy refundi f you have 1000000 milion haste

mellow pier
#

Do u still use bote as our neck goes up?

bleak spoke
#

what's he play instead

mellow pier
#

CLF was simming higher for me

bleak spoke
#

puri?

#

clf minor?

distant lava
#

formless I'm pretty sure

#

or iris

boreal maple
#

it was formless yea

bleak spoke
#

oh just more haste value innit

warm parcel
boreal maple
#

with 90% uptime

bleak spoke
#

yo

#

that's

#

nuts to look at

warm parcel
#

haste bois

bleak spoke
#

fast

mellow pier
#

So clf is better

loud brook
#

never thought i'd see the day

bleak spoke
#

honestly

#

i kinda like that

loud brook
#

speedy bois time

distant lava
#

clf or blood usually for major, just sim yourself

loud brook
#

^

bleak spoke
#

i've always hated lucid

#

like

mellow pier
#

Yeah it depends on neck level

distant lava
#

gonna become 7.3 feral

bleak spoke
#

random refunds are kinda

distant lava
#

just mash mutilate like a mong

loud brook
#

clf has higher overall but blood is more versatile

distant lava
#

no energy problems

bleak spoke
#

man it just infuriates me that i can misplay and have it be better

#

because of lucid procs

mellow pier
#

Lots of the "top" logs have a lot of misplay

#

Just TA carried them lol

#

I have played like shit and done well then played close to perfect and get 2 procs in 8mins

warm parcel
#

I mean just look at me and flowi

#

Nearly identical gear, and arguably player level

#

Random 2m+ tentacle dmg on nozoth

#

=profit

bleak spoke
#

yeh idk i had some nice logs earlier in the tier that were just like if you looked at what i actually did it was like

#

is this guy actually playing the game

distant lava
#

DETECTION BABY

#

DOY OU PRESS IT

bleak spoke
#

or did he fall asleep in his chair hit his buttons with his face and get procs

mellow pier
#

Only other time I have felt logs have meant less or close to same as now was EN

#

With lego drops

arctic walrus
#

Fwowi couldโ€™ve done exponentially more damage @warm parcel

warm parcel
#

:DD

scarlet sequoia
#

get better gear

bleak spoke
#

thank you raz very cool

loud brook
#

I was very upset to go throug many of the sin top logs last night and just seeing they were all twisted appendage

#

at least the exsanguinate dudes tried something new

sonic rapids
sick scarab
#

better gear ?

arctic walrus
#

Yeah with some severe and exp

#

Itโ€™ll happen

loud brook
#

honestly you just need more corruptions

#

and sockets, but that'll come with farming visions

boreal maple
#

seeing those mecha rings pogyou

sick scarab
#

ah ok

#

tnx lanloesh

loud brook
#

also vers mas is discusteng try for crit haste

#

idk if that's actually the case with your weights though

sick scarab
#

i jus fid wights

#

just did

#

crit 9.32, haste 9.07, MASTERY 10.5, VERSA 8.66

#

...

mellow pier
#

Does anyone know if they fixed applying corruption to other pple gear

sick scarab
#

FFS i ahve tons of gear.. losing mind atm LOL

mellow pier
#

I know it was doable last night

slim lava
#

at what ilv my azerites should b to run ss?

balmy condor
#

not sure about that question, ss is BiS in m+

#

and for raids, kinda never until you get good enough gear to do exsang

slim lava
#

for st dmg

arctic walrus
#

Raden helm cara chest goraks

balmy condor
#

thats also not dependent on azerite level

#

thats just corruption/gear

#

it scales harder, so you need to pump up that haste

slim lava
#

sitting on 42% rn

modern bear
#

how the fuck yall simming 100k dps wtf

balmy condor
#

then sim it?

slim lava
#

unbuffed

balmy condor
#

42% should be enough

#

100k dps sims are corruption poggers

#

this is the one from earlier

#

as you can see, very cool blizzard

modern bear
#

wtf

#

im thinking of buying the haste buff

#

but idk if i should

#

same for severe

true kindle
#

thinking the same :p

balmy condor
#

expedient is probably the go-to

slow tulip
#

just buy 4 expedients this cycle

balmy condor
#

strikethrough is pretty good, but severe is probably better

#

yeah

modern bear
#

ye?

#

i cant buy 4 since i didnt gain echoes befroe this

#

so bullshit

#

but severe is for patchewrk

#

when i go outlaw

slow tulip
#

there is a lot of time till saturday

modern bear
#

i need nooo haste right

slow tulip
#

can manage prolly like 3 atleast

modern bear
#

whaat, where should i gain so many echoes??

balmy condor
#

spam m+

modern bear
#

doing raid tomorrow

#

how much does a 17 key give u?

slow tulip
#

M+ 15 gives 225

#

you can spam some

slow tulip
#

also visions and assault give a lot

true kindle
#

thing is i have infinite stars at 75 corruption so i dont have a lot of room, only one more corruption. i was thinking of changing IS

balmy condor
#

17 gives 255

#

15 per level I think

slow tulip
#

yes

modern bear
#

25 is not a lot lol

dawn rock
#

drop is

wet ruin
#

can this be trusted

modern bear
#

can anyone of u click my link?

#

tell me what i should change?

#

or just get expedients ๐Ÿ˜„

balmy condor
#

CT in single target? kekchamp

#

nice

modern bear
#

it usually ALWAYS sims my 18% td

cobalt pelican
#

in terms of what

modern bear
#

what is CT?

true kindle
#

is IS actually not good? ๐Ÿ˜›

balmy condor
#

crimson tempest

dawn rock
#

IS is poor

modern bear
#

oh WAITY

#

lo

#

l

balmy condor
#

IS is good single target, but its mega rng

modern bear
#

i was on vision spec

#

go damn

balmy condor
#

switches his gear not his talents

#

who is this guy

modern bear
#

hahaha i forgot i did a vision

#

actually went to the gym

#

they put everything outside lol

true kindle
#

so what are the better corruption effects now?

#

i heard they are nerfing gushing qounds

#

wounds*

balmy condor
#

still expedient

modern bear
#

35%

dawn rock
#

pinned

modern bear
#

less damage

true kindle
#

oh there is a pin? missed it :p

modern bear
#

@balmy condor but, if i also wanna play outlaw, in mythic +

#

should i stack versa % and crit %?

balmy condor
#

then make 2 gear sets

modern bear
#

i play more m+ than raid tbh

balmy condor
#

probably

#

or raid outlaw

modern bear
#

im now playing assa mythic +

#

got 3 echoing

#

but on 465 gear which is sad

balmy condor
#

echoing kinda not needed

modern bear
#

shows a big damage boost in my sims over taking my single target gear tho

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

its still an aoe azerite

#

so makes sense

modern bear
#

i have like 3 surging vitality too lol

balmy condor
#

yeah that looks more like what I was expecting

modern bear
#

but whispyr, what do u think about flat haste vs racing pulse?

#

idk when rogue haste caps a bit

dawn rock
#

haste

arctic cloud
#

Worth buying a 12% haste this week for ass?

balmy condor
#

racing pulse is garbo

modern bear
#

ye?

dawn rock
#

buy 4

modern bear
#

it has high uptime

balmy condor
dawn rock
#

exp

arctic cloud
#

Sorry

balmy condor
#

12% haste also has high uptime btw

#

permanent

modern bear
#

hahaha

#

ye OPK

#

when is the cap

#

on haste?

#

like harder cap

warm parcel
#

Never was

#

Never will be

modern bear
#

u can get like

#

60% flat?

balmy condor
#

sure why not

warm parcel
#

You can get flat 200% if you want

#

Nothings gonna stop you

modern bear
#

oh idk i thought diminishing returns

#

like big diminishing returns

warm parcel
#

Diminishing return has nothing to do with caps

modern bear
#

ye but there wil be a point

balmy condor
#

also pretty sure the diminishing returns only kick in at ridiculous levels

modern bear
#

crit or versa will be better then?

balmy condor
#

that you don't need to think about

warm parcel
#

maybe

modern bear
#

so 4 x expedient

#

would do that?

warm parcel
#

that point can be on any spot on any char

#

and it can vary

balmy condor
#

^

#

people act like stat-weights are just one fits all

modern bear
#

and then on items go haste > mastery > crit > versa?

balmy condor
#

s i m
y o
s e l f
d a w g

warm parcel
#

guess you really dont get how stats work

#

huh

modern bear
#

i simmed a lot

#

but i didnt use expedients

balmy condor
#

then you know better than us

modern bear
#

so i dont really know

#

like i usually do m+

balmy condor
#

too many variables to tell you stat weights

modern bear
#

and with the gear i have now, i came to the sim i just sent

#

aah but as a general guideline

#

IF

#

u have 4x expedient

#

what would u focus on

#

on pieces

#

?

balmy condor
#

what the sims tell me

#

like I'm deadass right now

#

it could be mastery

modern bear
#

next weak i have paramount goggles btw

balmy condor
#

it could be crit

#

it could be vers

#

it could be more haste

modern bear
#

aah alright

#

so i really have to throw more sims to it

#

il experiment with that new option

#

where u can sim shop corrupts

#

does gushing work on aoe too btw?

balmy condor
#

the proc rate does not increase with more targets

#

if thats the question

modern bear
#

that was

#

my indeed

#

the question

#

u wont proc it 5 times

#

good to know

#

for pvp, 6 gushing tho ๐Ÿ˜„

balmy condor
#

or just exsang

#

I would think that's pretty good burst too

modern bear
#

yeah true

#

are there ppl who use that on raids?

#

i was sticking to toxic

balmy condor
#

exsang?

#

yeah

modern bear
#

yee

balmy condor
#

btw

true kindle
#

all sims i run want me to keep the infinite star, i dont get it :p

balmy condor
#

that's probably because its strong single target

#

makes sense to me

true kindle
#

also where do i see the pins? kinda noob with this

balmy condor
charred vine
#

Atm what are the best corruptions after the patch?

balmy condor
#

unless you're on mobile

#

PINS

#

PLEASE

#

JESUS

modern bear
#

i see

#

mate i just joined

#

this dc

balmy condor
#

its like this

#

all day long

warm parcel
#

So you just skipped the intro

balmy condor
#

forever

warm parcel
#

And asked a question instead of reading it

modern bear
#

it was a week ago and i was busy

#

so yes

#

i just typed like 2 things here

warm parcel
#

So you skipping reading it dont be surprised people skip your question

balmy condor
#

class discords are the same 3 questions every day until the end of time

warm parcel
#

Or snap at you

modern bear
#

lol sure bud

#

dont feel like having this meme conversation tbh

#

im going to buy some expedients

balmy condor
#

excellent

shut bay
#

expediant exsanguinate build

balmy condor
#

that's what we suggested

shut bay
#

do it

green scroll
#

how would you sim for this raid, hectic and cleave or patchwerk with 2-3 boss ?

balmy condor
#

raid has how many bosses?

#

and you think you can sim all of them

green scroll
#

cause IF is strong on ST but except maut and shadar there isn't much of pure ST

balmy condor
#

using 1 sim?

green scroll
#

an average

balmy condor
#

on average, you would sim single target

#

cause you're playing sin

#

and thats your job

slim lava
#

whats happening?

balmy condor
#

you need more crit

green scroll
#

but wouldn't IF be stronger that it actually is ?

#

having 10 stacks on boss for sure

slim lava
#

but why haste is the least valuable

balmy condor
#

because you have a lot of haste

warm parcel
#

Cause you have a lot of it

#

And thats how stats work

slim lava
#

but isnt that the idea with expedient?

balmy condor
#

Infinite stars is sim bait for single target

#

if you have adds

warm parcel
#

All stats are just multipliers

balmy condor
#

don't take it

charred vine
#

Atm what are the best corruptions after the patch?

balmy condor
#

that's why we don't suggest infinite stars

#

@charred vine pins still

slim lava
#

o know how stat weights works

#

i*

green scroll
#

@balmy condor that's why I ask

balmy condor
#

then yes

green scroll
#

so just sim pure ST but avoid IF

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

IS will pop off on shad

#

and that's about it

slim lava
#

so with those stat weights i should stop buying expedient?

#

im expedient 6only

balmy condor
#

I would probably gem for crit and then buy more expedient

warm parcel
#

If you dont care to understand, never

#

If you do wanna, you sim

young portal
#

Don't gear yourself from stat weights, gear from Top Gear/Gear Compare

balmy condor
#

who said to gear from stat weights

charred vine
#

full expedient humm

young portal
#

he's looking at his stat weights and considering stopping buying Expedients?

slim lava
#

no im trying to understand why haste isnt getting more valuable since it will b multiplied

#

by exp6

balmy condor
#

mhm thats what I was thinking

warm parcel
#

Cause whenever you get more haste

#

Other stats raise in value too

#

Its the very core of how multiplying works in math

#

Thats grade school level of math

slim lava
#

ye u talking about grade school

rancid bobcat
#

Has anyone tried mixing in some other stat amps yet into the sims?

slim lava
#

but also the obvious but it doesnt say anything by itself

warm parcel
#

okay so

#

If you have a total of "10" you can multiply together

#

You are not going to have 7 x 1 x 1 x 1

#

To get the highest score

boreal maple
#

i have rank 9 expedient and rank 4 severe

warm parcel
#

But instead you could go 6 x 2 x 1 x 1 and already get a higher score

#

Theres your stats

#

Crit haste mas and vers

#

Thats literally how stats work in this game

#

Now 6 2 1 1 isnt the best either

#

But its already miles better than 7 1 1 1

balmy condor
#

should add that everything is a multiplier, there are very few additive buffs in the game

slim lava
#

im getting it now

#

ty

balmy condor
#

which also is why stacking all your buffs and pot and bloodlust into one very short window is very strong

#

you can see that the lines are very jagged

#

because they play off of each other

#

so depending on gear, your lines will come out completely differently

#

you can also see that vers starts to scale, because it's almost like its multiplying the effects from all the other stats

#

agi starts out very strong, but doesn't scale well, this also explains why agi/ilvl is the best thing at the start of an expansion, and why late into an expansion, agi is by far the worst stat

#

all of that in that graph is a difference of -1000 to +1000 on a template character

#

so with 4k haste on people and bloodlust and a bunch of garbage

#

that visual is also completely inaccurate

#

you pop your buffs, the lines change, you get more corruption, the lines change

warm parcel
#

Its always a living thing

balmy condor
#

^

#

basically any changes you make to your character, the graph will shift

#

you can't make me click that

vestal wren
#

does that clip relate to the discussion?

warm parcel
#

Cant see how it would

balmy condor
#

its literally just m+ talents

strange python
#

banhammer him reee

balmy condor
#

and then half baked gameplay in a kings rest

#

wat

vestal wren
#

!warn @onyx osprey no self promotion

onyx osprey
#

sorry it was just a clup

lone junco
#

@balmy condor those graphs are neat. if you increase the stat delta you will see where haste caps energy in the opener.

onyx osprey
#

clip*

hoary crown
#

Can some1 tell me what to aim for with corruptions now ?

onyx osprey
#

i didnt mean to advertise i hate self promoters tbh

balmy condor
#

@lone junco yeh, stat plots are huge brain

#

@hoary crown pins :)

lone junco
#

aka, you can see why people stacking expedients, wind up swapping to crit gems.

#

cause they are blowing energy during vendetta

tropic gust
#

Hey everyone. I'm new to the discord and also looking to further improve my rogue. At 472 ilvl but only simming 83k

balmy condor
#

link sim

tropic gust
#

I will when I get home ๐Ÿคฃ just at work right now. Aconite-Whisperwind if you want to look up in quick sim

north ibex
#

is the nzoth ring BiS?

balmy condor
#

@lone junco I think it'll be interesting to see how the corruptions end up 2-3 months down the road

#

mechagon rings bis

north ibex
#

i got one with socket lol

balmy condor
#

then sim it

north ibex
#

thinking if thats the ring i wanna put expedient on

balmy condor
#

you're gonna replace it with the mechagon rings eventually

tropic gust
#

Which If and Thens are BiS? With behind enemy with Haste proc or the nature dmg infliction?

balmy condor
#

don't quote me on it

#

but I want to say 3 hits, haste

lean marten
#

behind, haste

vernal flume
#

behind and haste

balmy condor
#

behind > 3 hits?

vernal flume
#

3 hits is ok but not as good uptime as behind

balmy condor
#

ah

warm parcel
#

behind procs off bleeds

#

so its 100% always up

balmy condor
#

oh what

#

that's janky as hell

warm parcel
#

dont quote on that

lean marten
#

its not super consistent

warm parcel
#

but its like 100% up in any log

lone junco
#

nice

lean marten
#

i think bleed has to been applied from behind but its wonky

lone junco
#

@warm parcel you even playing rogue these days?

balmy condor
#

nice game blizz kekw

lone junco
#

probably a warrior bro now

warm parcel
#

why wouldnt I

static glacier
#

so uh, is there a way of simming cleansing / recorrupting pieces on raidbots?

fleet anchor
#

3 abilities one procs from like

#

Azerite procs and stuff too, so it's pretty much always up also afaik

warm parcel
#

Im always rogue

#

Its close

lone junco
#

except when you are mage or shadow

balmy condor
#

@static glacier yes, you should look at the github tutorials

warm parcel
#

Thats once an expac etu

static glacier
#

where can I find em, what do I search for (sorry if it's a silly questiton)

#

never really been much of a github user

balmy condor
static glacier
#

ty

balmy condor
#

that'll tell you how to edit gear pieces

lone junco
#

i use raidbots gear compare.

balmy condor
#

from there its just finding the ID's you're looking for

#

gear compare works too yeah

#

I don't like that as much tbh

warm parcel
#

Top gear works, its just a lot of repeated runs

#

Cleansing and reapplying one by one

lime edge
#

exped is bis enchant

#

right

balmy condor
#

copy=
our lord and savior

#

@lime edge yes, also pins

lean marten
#

i dont think u can pick the piece it goes on in Top Gear with the new ui, it just slaps it on something within budget

lime edge
#

new pins, pog

lone junco
#

but yeah, thats one at a time. and sad

balmy condor
#

^

static glacier
#

trying with topgear, let's see how it goes

balmy condor
#

that's why I just make duplicate gear pieces with custom code

#

and it just knows

#

and top gears that instead

lone junco
balmy condor
#

wait

#

pog

#

daddy seriallos

dark niche
#

anyone mind taking a look at these 2 sims? i thought expedient would/should sim higher

lone junco
#

a few things going on there.

balmy condor
#

yeah

static glacier
#

dropping ilvls with multiple TA when they aren't hasted

balmy condor
#

there's a bit of a mess

static glacier
#

is likely the cause?

balmy condor
#

going on in those sims

lone junco
#

its not 1 expedient that helps. its like 6

lean marten
#

expedient is typically combined with xang build

lone junco
#

and 3ss

lean marten
#

with multiple expedients

warm parcel
#

One corrution is 15 more corruption

#

ofc its gonna be better

balmy condor

#

that's the main thing

dark niche
#

doesnt raidbot account for multiple expedients?

#

66 for 1 ta thats 3 expedients?

warm parcel
#

Youre comparing one corruption vs another

#

So if theyre different corr value

balmy condor
#

ta3 is pretty good single target

warm parcel
#

Higher is quite likely to win

lone junco
#

and a lot of people using the expedient are bypassing the RNG tendy

balmy condor
#

expedient isn't just a one button win the game

charred vine
#

expedient 12 and 6%, i sim 78k 477 ilvl LOL

balmy condor
#

its just the most consistent

lone junco
#

they may accept a lower sim max.

balmy condor
#

but also you should be more consistent in your gear

lone junco
#

56c is pretty high as well

#

lol

balmy condor
#

it wants to be like 4 different things at once

lone junco
#

need like 10 more sockets too

#

ayo

balmy condor
#

deadly/masterful nav, but vers enchanted and vers gemmed?

dark niche
#

i cant sim that much cause of the limit

balmy condor
#

seems like you've been micro-managing quite a bit

lone junco
#

verse buffs tendy

balmy condor
#

verse does buff tendy

#

but verse gemming is usually not very hype

lone junco
#

anyway. the high haste builds might not be peoples high sim. but def a very very consistent result

balmy condor
#

and 1 vers ring + 1 haste ring

#

idk

dark niche
#

the versa stuff is mostly cause of pvp when i think rly think about simming for higher pve

balmy condor
#

feels micro-managed

static glacier
#

got a TA 3 wep today, I'll probably not get to run many new corruptions

balmy condor
#

ah

#

that would also explain that

when i didnt rly*

Logged out playing with flays. Forgot about that

light pebble
#

is there a bis list that shows the best items you can get at 475+ for the exang build? so like best crit haste gear

balmy condor
#

also logged out with BotD major

lone junco
#

gl

tropic gust
#

Yes lmao

balmy condor
#

@light pebble BiS lists don't exist

#

legion made sure to get rid of them

rose sapphire
static glacier
#

I've fucked something up here

#

460 wep simming higher than 475

balmy condor
#

seems fine to me

light pebble
#

@balmy condor how can I see which items have the best haste/crit distribution so I dont end up socketing and putting exped 3 on something that isnt best?

topaz wasp
#

How come not MA Hollister?

static glacier
#

that and it's keeping honed mind

obtuse island
#

Whats a good azerite set up to go for on boss weeks as assassination? Still EB and SS?

balmy condor
#

@topaz wasp MA is worse for most people

#

subt just scales harder

topaz wasp
#

yeah while running SS right? running subter with 0 ss feels odd

balmy condor
#

@light pebble that's a bait question, if you scroll up about 30 minutes, you'll find our conversation on stat weights, and why that line of thinking isn't going to help you

#

no

#

just in general

#

subt is just better

raven mica
#

Also, with that comment regarding bis lists

lean marten
#

BiS lists might come back now that we can pick corruptions

raven mica
#

With this patch, thereโ€™s actually an argument for a bis list to be made

balmy condor
#

I guess

#

but as of now

#

no bis

#

cause unrealistic

static glacier
#

thing is, a bis piece would only be bis if you have the rest of the set

raven mica
#

Less unrealistic than before

balmy condor
#

^

shy axle
balmy condor
#

BiS is only BiS because you have all the BiS, not because its straight better

#

@shy axle you could sim 2x ex3, and it'll help probably more than other things

#

but really its hard to tell

shy axle
#

i got one on my belt and could add 2 more, idk how to do that in raidbots though

balmy condor
#

gear compare is an easy way

#

could code it in as well

#

1 socket kinda hurts tho

light pebble
#

Would you guys say the servo-arm bracers from ML or the bracers from M Skitra are the best? About to socket + exped my bracers and not sure which would be better (still making the rest of my set)

shy axle
#

yeah i got more sockets on other pieces without haste/lower ilvl/other corruptions

dawn rock
#

hmmm 3 or 4 expedient worth grinding out

shy axle
#

thats just want seems to be best suited for the %haste, but i am no expert either, just lurking and playin

strange python
#

is appendage kind of the way to go just now?

balmy condor
#

@light pebble its basically the same thing

#

@strange python pins

vernal walrus
#

guys plz 2 questions: vision of perfection is not good minorยฟ with blood of enemy in main, or i must play vision mainยฟ and what is EB

light pebble
#

@balmy condor dont the ML ones lean heavy haste while the skitra ones are more balanced?

tropic ocean
#

for m+ vision minor is fine

#

eb = echoing blades azerite trait

royal lantern
#

vision minor is good on some fights (wrathion is a big one), but no "always use that one" essence

balmy condor
#

sure, but realistically the difference is so minimal that it changes from character to character

light pebble
#

ahk fair

balmy condor
#

its haste/crit bracers vs crit/haste bracers

#

and bracers already are the lowest stat piece of gear

vernal walrus
#

mmm just in fights that you can explode that cd reducctionยฟ

balmy condor
#

mega-micro managing

light pebble
#

and for the carapace weapon, would you cleanse it and add expedient or leave it with TA?

royal lantern
#

we dont know your corruption levels/options

light pebble
#

@balmy condor which piece would you say is the most important to focus on first?

balmy condor
#

if you want to be consistent, probably cleanse, but TA is fine

#

mechagon rings

#

but seriously, that's a bait question

#

just play the game

lean marten
#

droptimizer can help with that

balmy condor
#

and sim yourself

#

^

#

droptimizer exists

warm parcel
#

Theres literally no difference which item has the haste amp

#

Just dont put it on an item thats shit and you dont wanna use

balmy condor
#

well there is technically a difference, but yes

light pebble
#

droptimiser barely shows any upgrades for me in M+ anymore. im just trying to respec everything for the new exsang build

balmy condor
#

the difference is so minimal that you shouldn't waste your time thinking about it

warm parcel
#

Theres not

#

Haste amp doesnt scale off ilvl like ta

void pecan
#

^

balmy condor
#

oh oh oh

#

the corruption

#

yes

visual mesa
#

yo bois, does twisted appendage corruption scale with haste?

#

in terms of proc rate

warm parcel
#

doesnt scale

#

in any way

balmy condor
#

for som reason I was thinking bracers

#

proc rate is constant

light pebble
#

I guess I should reword my question. if bracers are the lowest stat piece of gear (aka minimal impact), which piece has the biggest impact?

warm parcel
#

in what way

balmy condor
#

rings probably

#

but seriously

warm parcel
#

like if you talking about corruption enchant

balmy condor
#

stop thinking about that

warm parcel
#

theres literally no difference

void pecan
#

^

balmy condor
#

he's talking stats on gear

light pebble
#

^

balmy condor
#

and I'm telling him

#

that it literally does not matter

warm parcel
#

well look at which item has the most stats in it

balmy condor
#

and is a waste of time

warm parcel
#

pants have way more than bracers

balmy condor
#

but apparently im not getting through to him

void pecan
#

Ideally put the corruption on your highest ilevel + best stat gear if that's what you're meaning

warm parcel
#

Id slap my corruptions on the items I know Im never removing

royal lantern
#

that is littearly minmaxing at a lvl where 99,9999%of all people dont care because its REALLY min min minmax

lone junco
#

I did ones with sockets

warm parcel
#

aka my daggers

#

Or mecha rings

void pecan
#

^ yeah yeah

warm parcel
#

Or that sweet socket 485 boots

strange python
#

are mecharings a must have?

light pebble
#

do you just chill with the m15 465 rings or wait to get lucky and get 475 from chest?

balmy condor
#

"must have"

warm parcel
#

if you wanna flex with simdps yes

royal lantern
#

pretty good

balmy condor
#

is a very subjective term

#

but they are the best rings

lone junco
#

for raid they give a ton of haste. in keys no.

balmy condor
#

yes

warm parcel
#

its up to you whether you wanna wait

royal lantern
#

high uptime haste buff is nice, can be forcefarmed, but its still loot rng

turbid canopy
#

what mechagon rings exactly?

balmy condor
#

behind/haste

lone junco
#

if behind then haste.

royal lantern
#

3different skills/haste is better imo

light pebble
#

is behind better than useing 3 abilities

#

thats what i though

royal lantern
#

behind is more a simthing

#

3skills is usable on all fights

#

how are you using behind on fights where you simply CANT be behind the enemy

lone junco
#

weak says bleed ticks count as behind.

light pebble
#

is there actually a big difference or just a minimal difference in the sims between behind or 3x abilities

#

oh wtf

#

bleeds count as behind???

lone junco
#

i dont have, so Idk.

turbid canopy
#

thats sad got a if you are under 50% 475 severe 2 ring

void pecan
#

My rings proc all the time.

balmy condor
#

realistically, the difference is minimal

#

you can get pretty high uptime on 3x as well

royal lantern
#

difference is probs like 30-40dps max

#

nothing that makes any kind of difference

light pebble
#

if bleeds count as being behind, thats pretty big though no? just multi dot everything and guaranteed

balmy condor
#

depends on fight and positioning

vernal flume
#

its like 90% uptime vs 99% uptime

balmy condor
#

if you can get high uptime behind the boss, then obviously behind

#

but if you're rupture sniping bloods on ilgy

#

then its probably whatever

light pebble
#

was the bleeds counting as 'behind' actually confirmed or did someone jsut say that?

vernal flume
#

so its probably not a huge dps difference

runic tinsel
#

Is bloodmallet using pre-nerf GW for thier sims or is it still the best for dps per corruption?

balmy condor
#

pre-nerf

warm parcel
#

Someone once told me prot warriors used behind cause their bleeds procced it

balmy condor
#

GW hasn't been nerfed yet

warm parcel
#

Just going by that

light pebble
#

hmm interesting, might need to do some more research on that

warm parcel
#

but quickly looking at my logs

#

behind was up 95% of the effective time

#

so just always up

lone junco
#

thats a lot of haste

#

big. huge.

#

wish my behind were always that huge

Thats the plan

Kinda sexy a ring innit

@dark forum how is it weird

maybe the bleeds proccing from behind was prot warrior only

so just ignore that one

@balmy condor Versa really? in most of my gear i allway stack Haste >= Crit > mastery >> everything else

vernal flume
balmy condor

and that's why vers is your best stat now

you always stacking haste is what got you into this situation

void pecan

Not haste.. but ๐Ÿ˜

lone junco

stat weights get weird anyway.

icy osprey

do you run any tentacles?

those spike my crit through the roof

lone junco

but rip agi

runic tinsel

Is raid bots using pre-nerf GW aswell?

warm parcel

Should be

with us all stacking exped now, does that mean vita + plume are the best trinkets for <5min fights and then vita + coral for longer?

warm parcel

Nerf is scheduled for 26th

vernal walrus

its possible now to corrupt a item againยฟ, i mean if the items was purified

only if it was purified after the patch

the vendor allows you to enchant gear with corruptions

therefore

you can cleanse and enchant with new corruption

Is the nerfed of gushing wound show in the simulations already?

@balmy condor never thought haste would have a point of inflection is blood mallet graph somewhat accurate?

balmy condor

unless bloodmallet is using your character as the template

warm parcel

That chart is for that character

At that gearset

balmy condor

And that only

bloodmallet/herowhateveritscalled uses predefined gear to sim those

@warm parcel we should pin that conversation from an hour ago

and just send people to read that

It does give some general picture like only stacking pure versa isnt the best of ideas

๐Ÿ˜„

100%+ extra vers from sources..

balmy condor

with expedient corruptions

there's going to be so many people

who just don't understand how stats work

and will show up going "hurr durr my weights?"

up to how many expedients can u stack

while being under 40

its 70?

is that cap

you have 87 atm

balmy condor

I'm using example

lime edge

+10 from breath

strange python

use rite exomple

balmy condor

fine we'll use 87

for the fish boy who hates examples that aren't capped

87 and you want to stay under 40

lime edge
#

so 6 rank 3 exped

balmy condor
#

yes

#

you did it

lime edge
#

and a rank 1?

#

idk

warm parcel
#

Why would you cleanse a ring like that

void pecan
#

Gushing is still decent

warm parcel
#

You have the other 8 slots to enchant before you should think of cleansing that

void pecan
#

even post nerf gushign will probably still be okay

vernal flume
#

rip to all the gw that gets wrongfully cleansed

strange python
#

no one believed me months ago when i said cleanse it

now see where we are

balmy condor

I saw someone say rip to a piece with exped 1

cause its not exped 3

I was about to lose my shit

lime edge

vernal flume

lolwat

warm parcel

Its gonna take a while to enchant every item with exr3

balmy condor

never underestimate how stupid people can be

main solar
#

Doesn't gushing get hasted? Have we seen at all how a gushing+expedient set looks post nerf?

warm parcel
#

Gushing does benefit from haste yes

red turtle
#

so in the end we will balance out Severe and Expedient to balance stats out?

loud silo
#

i figured it just wasnt worth the corruption budget, id obviously sim before cleansing

vernal flume
#

yea a guildie asked me today like "oh i should just replace this exped1 with exped3 right" ...why not just pick a different slot wtf

warm parcel
#

It should still be a better pick in 485 ilvl items

lime edge

so on shard of the black empire

lucky i posted in here before doing big dumb cleanse

i have yet to cleanse a single item

@balmy condor @warm parcel understood and thanks we know everything is MEANT to be a guide but as the Internet Dojo rules go there are always things to strive for. RIP now being able to test crazy combo's like prenerf GW x4 + Galecallers + Exsang

you can still test that

does hasting pulse get affected by expedient

Any haste thats raw rating

lime edge

so yes

kk

loud silo

it legit says in the tool tip "haste from all sources"

lime edge

ok

then why doesnt it boost lust haste

But it is rating only

lime edge
#

thats a source

warm parcel

Doesnt affect lust or troll racial

lime edge

yea

shy axle
loud silo

i thought it did boost haste from lust

lime edge
#

hell no it doesnt

wet ruin
#

I don't think bloodlust is haste

icy osprey
#

so atm im running appendages rank 6, if I wanna replace those all with expedients, id have to have haste on every item to make it worthwhile right?

lime edge
#

thats why im asking

#

u def want haste on every item

icy osprey
#

bcs I tried simming it with a random set that has 1500 haste, but that simmed slightly lower

lime edge
#

not sure if haste/verse or haste/crit

strange python
#

tfw you only gain 5k dps after a day of visions peepomad

lime edge

thats a lot

#

wdym

wet ruin
#

bloodlust is defined as melee, ranged and spell haste, which is something different than the haste rating

#

I assume

warm parcel
#

Yes

loud silo

so i just used drums with rank 2 expedient on and got 33% instead of 25%

explain?

Even tho expedient doesnt specify "rating" in it

what kind of haste mastery are you looking for when playing exsanguinate build?

ouch

eh just an alt

minor thicket

question by switching the talent MA to subterfuge and still running DD traits or one or two SS why was the switch made? To remove the crit cap?

woeful minnow

to be fair masterful2 isn't bad, it only becomes a problem if you have too many corruptions for your available gear slots

warm parcel
#

There isnt really a reason like crit cap

#

Its just more overall with sub

But getting to higher crit levels does make MA less valuable yes

minor thicket

sorry thats what i meant
