vop minor is weird

#

u want the mecha rings

hearty crane
#

I got those just actually didnt sim with them on

#

but

#

Vop that bad?

#

rather go Strife r2?

lean marten
#

having a 475 in mh instead of 470 might help

#

u want r3 or maybe try Formless void

hearty crane
#

roger that thx man

#

I got 475 wep no haste on it tho

#

better that 470 with haste?

lean marten
#

not sure just have to sim it

hearty crane

Hi guys, what fighting style do you use for Nzot Mythic fight?
Personally, I am a favor of inting on Psychus so I don't have to worry about fucking up Evoke

sweet rampart
#

expedient 3 tomorrow?

grizzled jay
#

No confirmation if it is a set rotation or if it randomizes every time it goes through a 'rotation'.

#

If it repeats, Ex3 is tomorrow. Otherwise, might be something else.

vast forum
#

datamining suggests that it's a set rotation

viscid lichen
#

is there an agreed upon corruption build for mythic progress?

young portal
#

pins

viscid lichen
#

so I just stack haste as mongo?

young portal
#

yeye, much more recommended for prog due to reliability. As suppose to stacking tendies and shit

viscid lichen
#

aight thanks then

#

Ill just jam haste to 39 corr then

pine badger
#

Is overclocking bit band bis for exped build?

grizzled jay
#

yes

pine badger
#

Does the logic loop of recursion allow for max uptime ?

grizzled jay
#

It's bis for every build because it gives you a lot of raw stats pretty sure

inner pier
#

Is there any difference between Plumage and Medallion?

pine badger
#

or is the attack from behind better?

grizzled jay
#

Divison is the only one that allows 100% uptime

sweet rampart
#

can't get 15k echoes this week for 7 exp 3s 😦

tropic ocean
#

spam arena mroe

sweet rampart
#

how much do you get per?

crimson palm
#

Enough

tropic ocean
#

depending on rating

#

50-70

#

in 2-3min

#

ez farm

sweet rampart
#

only if you win though right? lol

tropic ocean
#

yeah but u deplete ur rating down to

#

1400~1800

#

and just roflstomp them

sweet rampart
#

sooo 50 per...20 games = 1k echoes...20 x 15....god....

tropic ocean
#

the gain solely depens on ur cr

sweet rampart
#

cr?>

sturdy python
#

Current rating

honest basin
#

And on the bracket too

tropic ocean
#

which pretty much is the same

#

😄

honest basin
#

Between 2.4 and 2.6 I've found I only earn 80-110 on average in 2s, while you get 100+ every two wins at barely 2k1 in 3s. I haven't queued above 2.4 in 3s for a month so I don't know how much you gain there, echoes weren't introduced when I was playing there

#

3s just gives more for the same rating, basically, but unless you really outclass what you face games might last

#

which means less echoes per hour

sweet rampart
#

i still ahve 3 emiisarries to do, and i have 6 visions. But if you do masks you do NOT get extra echoes right? it caps at just a full run?

tropic ocean
#

its not really worth to do the games at high rating

#

cuz they take long

honest basin
#

yeah it's not

tropic ocean
#

so when u spend 6,7min to win 110 on 2.6

#

in the same time u get 2x-3x 50-70

#

in lower cr

#
  • faster queue time as well
honest basin
#

yeah it's clearly not worth

#

just stating the gains at different ratings

tropic ocean
#

I'd even say 2s> 3s

#

cuz of how fast the games are

honest basin
#

as a reference me and a friend were able to farm about 1500-2000 per hour when we dropped in 2s

#

yeah

#

it's much much faster

sweet rampart
#

i am at 1358 for 2s 😄 i am not very good

humble saddle
#

how many runs did it take you guys to get the mechagon rings? im at 50 combined runs and no luck

plain thistle
#

jesus, not sure, but i got it pretty fast into the patch, and never swapped out

#

took me 10 tries to get carapace mythic dagger tho SucksMan

jolly spoke
#

Whats the rough stats to hit for crit/mast/haste? im sitting on 29% crit, 34% haste and 42% mast at 471 item level.

civic hatch
#

Playing ss/exang I find sometimes I have 1-2sec on an empowered rupture left and 5-6 combo points, do I just overcap energy a bit and wait till it drops to refresh rupture or envenom and build up cp again for rupture while it’s down for a couple seconds?

scarlet sequoia
#

i usually just use a finisher

#

but dont listen to me

balmy condor
#

I think that question has a lot of variables and the optimal way to handle it is going to change depending on downtime

#

I would agree that just using a finisher is probably more consistent

strange python
#

Hello, so I seen Infexious's video about Exsanguinate and Crimson Tempest build for bleeds with Haste Mastery pieces, and the expedient corruption, what if I'm not a high end raider and don't have the Vita-Charged Titanshard and the other good trinkets? I'm looking to get the best build I can for my gear and I'm a little bit lost as the build I tried of Infexious's makes me burst really hard but the downtime is really slow haste and I don't have any of the corruptions that I want to save my currency for gushings

balmy condor
#

Sim yourself

proven moth
#

When the guide says Crit = Mastery it means like % or the same numeric ammount?

balmy condor
#

The wrathion trinket is probably fine

crimson palm
#

you can use the finisher and apply rup with the amount of cp that u get after the first mut

#

dead gcds are worse

vital haven
#

eww wrathiion trinket

strange python
#

I am getting dead gcd's with that build

#

I don't think I have the haste to make it work

crimson palm
#

i wasnt talking to u

balmy condor
#

Guide means that crit/mastery are going to be roughly the same weighting

strange python
#

my bad

balmy condor
#

Wrathion trinket is honestly fine if you don’t have vita

#

It’s not a ton of haste but it’s got good uptime

strange python
#

I don't have the wration trinket either

balmy condor
#

Well then sim yourself

#

Idk what trinkets you have

proven moth
#

Oh shit, stat weight... this xpac sucks with simming

balmy condor
#

No, not actual stat weight

#

It’s useless to think about those

#

Just get haste everywhere

#

And then go for either crit or mastery on the off stats

#

They’re roughly the same

strange python
#

what is the cancelaura for haste buff of bote?

#

430 Azshara's Font, Gladiator's Badge, and Razor Coral, then 460 Loaded Dice, and Electromental in a Jar, and 440 Dead-Eye Spyglass

balmy condor
#

Yeah, so sim yourself

vital haven
#

just get haste everywhere should be the tldr of the guide tbh

proven moth
#

so high ilvl with haste and mast/crit?

balmy condor
#

Yes

#

That’s what it’s saying

strange python
#

I don't know how to sim for raids

#

patchwerk

balmy condor
#

5 min is the usual

#

But if your kill times are super quick, feel free to knock it down

dire spoke
#

you cant just copy build-x and expect it to work, thats why talentXtrait simulations are a thing

balmy condor
#

^

#

Too many variables from one character to another

vital haven
#

exsang build is the new hotness

#

everyone wants a piece of it

pine badger
#

thats cause its the theoretical best dps no?

vital haven
#

well ye

#

but it takes a while to get there

tropic ocean
#

its practical best dps too

pine badger
#

yeah

woeful minnow
#

it's not actually best theoretical dps, your tendies could go off and parse better than you ever would with the exsang build

strange python
#

r6 stars probably does good for single target bosses

crimson palm
#

yes dont listen to these noobs who run haste

woeful minnow
#

but it's completely consistent because you don't rely on rng procs and it's always good instead of sometimes grey parse sometimes 100%

crimson palm
#

just get ur tendies

#

and flex at your guild once in a month when you get dem procs

vital haven
#

im thinking going heavey haste exsang build with one IS is prob the best theoretical dps

crimson palm
#

or just play dh and you can flex twice a month

dire spoke
#

if youre still progressing or gearing with half assed mini expedients youll likely be doing better with toxicblade poisonbomb, try not to force meta on long fights with bad gear

strange python
#

It says to run Azshara's Font and Coral but I don't think I can run the bleed build with that

dire spoke
#

font was good with masterassassin, try to compare the talents first

tropic ocean
#

if your still progressing or gearing with half assed mini expedients youll likely be doing better with toxicblade poisonbomb, try not to force meta on long fights with bad gear
@dire spoke pretty sure you'll do better with tb on any cleave fight

strange python
#

I'm just going to run old build, I forget how the damn stats work with master assassin and coral + font but I'm sure I'll figure it out

dire spoke
#

you can get expedients next ID probably

tropic ocean
#

I'm just going to run old build, I forget how the damn stats work with master assassin and coral + font but I'm sure I'll figure it out
@strange python u just sim whats best for u and use it

strange python
#

isn't it expensive to buy corruptions?

tropic ocean
#

its like 40k`or 45k for full set so

#

its okay I guess

dire spoke
#

what else are you gonna spend echoes for peepostudy

woeful minnow
#

severe/strikethrough for m+, outlaw set, pvp set pepehands

strange python
#

Gushing's when I get the gear I need for pvp

tropic ocean
#

@woeful minnow ur m+ assa and outlaw m+/raidset

#

is pretty much the same items

dire spoke
#

to be clear, I was implying a raid envi with my answers

drifting light
#

Gushing's when I get the gear I need for pvp
@strange python well assuming blizz doesnt shuffle corruption rotation, gushers will only be available in roughly a month from now as they were up until friday

#

So u will have a fuck ton of time to farm echoes, and if exp 3 is up tomorrow and u dont have the gear nor the echoes to go big on haste, this conversation is kinda pointless

broken oriole
#

using stars is dangerous on Maut

#

rather have haste

strange python
#

what are essences for assa pve

#

raids

#

I mean

dire spoke
#

lucid, breath and the rest is up to you

tropic ocean
#

bote/clf - lucid - iris - breath

#

if you have very high amount of haste replace lucid with formless void

strange python
#

only 22% haste

tropic ocean
#

then probably cns instead of iris

strange python
#

conflict and strife?

dire spoke
#

man

#

can you sim

#

🙂

strange python
#

I was just asking what cns stands for

#

I can't tell if the sim is right about putting me 7 corruption over the resistance

dire spoke
#

Have you used the slider to set a max number and checked purify box?

strange python
#

I'm only wondering to see if I need to cleanse one. I set my maximum corruption resistance to 53 since my cloak is at that, and I don't know about the purify box. Maybe I should have checked that?

drifting cloud
#

what

#

you can easily play with up to 39 corruption after resist

#

or 59

dire spoke
#

Have you used the slider to set a max number and checked purify box?
set it to 59 and check purify

#

astral onyx
#

Something I'm struggling to understand is how a 470 crit/haste piece could be worse than a 475 vers/mastery piece with extreme amounts of expedient. If the piece doesnt have haste aren't you leaving stats on the table in a major way? Trying to understand my sim telling me its actually better to wear the 475

wide delta
#

do I get 2 quartermaster's note everytime I turn in conquest cap?

dusky moon
#

is there a way to add 'expedient III' corruption ID to an item for simming?

strange python
#

in top gear

fallen bone
#

Gear comparison also works

strange python
#

if you just wanna edit a string the bonus id for exp3 should be 6476

dusky moon
#

thanks

wind totem
#

I just got back into the game. Why does razor coral sim so high for aoe/dungeon?

dusky moon
#

it is crit, crit is best for AoE and EB spam

rigid eagle
#

hey guys

#

do yall use mechagon rings for m+?

dusky moon
#

i do, since I don't have anything better

#

one haste, one crit, but i think you can get two different with the same stat

rigid eagle
#

lol the dungeon slice thingy is telling me that double mechagon ring is better than crit versa + crit mastery rings

#

dunno if i should trust a beta function tbh

dusky moon
#

don't use dungeon slice

rigid eagle
#

yeah lol

dusky moon
#

use patchwerk 4 bosses 90 sec and no buffs

rigid eagle
#

okie

storm lava
#

hi everyone

#

its normal that raidbot dont remplace the crit gems for a haste gems

#

?

royal lantern
#

it starts too replace crit with haste when you get a higher amount of expedient

grizzled jay
#

Run Stat Weights, that will tell you why it chooses what it chooses.

normal olive
#

I think you don't sim haste gems, atleast it looks like it

royal lantern
#

dont run stat weights

#

like

#

dont

#

topgear with crit and haste, and use "replace exsisting gems/enchants" then you will see the result

#

it starts too replace crit with haste gems when you got some expedient

storm lava

grizzled jay

CLF or BotE are better Majors than BotD

balmy condor
#

doesn't have those

red plaza
#

Yeah, work on BoTE rank 3 is your first priority, CLF not so much really

balmy condor
#

clf rank 1, bote rank 2

red plaza
#

Then check the pins for the best Expedient/Haste gear setup and work on getting those.

#

If not, put on some high level tendies or infinite stars pieces and pray to the RNG gods XD

bote rank 3 should take u like 2 days

or 3

should i pick gutripper or heed my call?

Is the Ex build good for M+ ? Or is Crit still the way to go for M+

#

Raid bots is simming at 77k dps

balmy condor
#

crit with exsang

rigid eagle
#

@balmy condor how does a crit exsang build go lol

#

do we build crit + haste?

balmy condor
#

crit/mast with subt 3x SS 3x EB and CT

lime edge
#

def not crit one

#

and overwhelming power sounds like it would have 0 stacks at all times, but what do i know

balmy condor
#

overwhelming is still strong

#

the crit isn't bad

lime edge
#

i thought crit was the worst stat for pvp

#

i guess heed is just useless tho

#

lol

shut garnet
#

yeah i mean imagine blinding x while focusing y and then they just get thundered

#

not ideal

balmy condor

Yeah

How much mastery vs crit for the esang build

Well shit guys, he’s got us good

What are we gonna say now

If only there were perhaps a program of some sort... that would be able to give more information on this type of question.... how cool would that be

royal lantern
#

would be cool

rigid eagle
#

real talk tho how did ppl even make simcraft work lol

balmy condor
#

It’s just a lot of math

royal lantern
#

space magic

balmy condor
#

Logic and math

rigid eagle
#

i read a lot of meth at first...

fast nacelle
#

Does double dose still work if I use wound poison instead of deadly poison?

royal lantern
#

yes

#

but you should never use wound poison

#

and in pvp dd sucks hard balls

fast nacelle
#

why?

#

why does it suck I mean?

royal lantern
#

cus in pvp you dont really use mutilate all the time like in pve

#

less uptime on your target etc...

tender token
#

is there a hard cap on secondary stats?

fast nacelle
#

I'm not supposed to be using mutilate? lol okay I suck. I need to revisit what I'm doing in pvp then 😐

balmy condor
#

@tender token no

tender token
#

thanks

balmy condor
#

We have a pvp channel

fast nacelle

ty, I'll go over there

and for everyone whos about to say sim it, lol I wouldve done so intead of asked if I wanted to do taht
@forest saffron read raz guide and then pm him about questions

topaz valley
#

Engineering goggles haste proc sims nearly as much as gibbering, do you think lining exangs on haste procs could be the best?

balmy condor
#

not worth

twin elbow
#

@balmy condor you said to do Crit with Exsanguinate but the guide specifically to stack expedients, at what haste % should you start switching to severe?

balmy condor
#

we were talking about m+

#

don't do severe for raids

gloomy lake
#

hey guys, can anyone help me sim my gear? i think im doing it right but im not entirely sure....

twin elbow
#

Yea I’m still talking about M+

balmy condor
#

exped in m+ is only really for mega tyrannical keys with small pulls imo

#

crit/severe is the go to for 90% of keys

#

like a tyran bolster kings rest? expeds probably okay

twin elbow
#

Okay, I’m sitting at 50% Crit right now, going with a DD type build with an SS and HoD, should I switch traits to EB? When I tried that earlier but my DPS was lower

balmy condor
#

DD in m+ is mega troll

#

3x SS is a must for m+ because of the restealths and the free cleave every pull

#

3x EB is the strongest aoe trait we have

#

hod is good overall as well

twin elbow
#

So you are really trying to get as many SS and EB as you can in M+

balmy condor
#

SS for sure

#

EB is generally good

delicate bone
#

Or use outlaw for m+ 😉

balmy condor
#

if I wanted to roll dice, I would go to vegas with a credit card

delicate bone
#

I use assassination for raiding, I just don’t like the playstyle for m+, it’s super zzzzzzzz, like if your tank is chainpulling and you can’t restealth you actually do no dmg

balmy condor
#

then don't play with a tank that just pepega chain pulls?

sullen fossil
#

If a tank is good he can play around restealth.. If he sucks just quit the key lul

balmy condor
#

^^^

delicate bone
#

I mean having to play around restealth is shitty Imo

#

I’m not saying sin isn’t viable to m+ or anything, just giving the dude another option for a way to do well in m+ 🙂

balmy condor
#

and imo, playing outlaw is worse than stubbing your toe

#

that's why we're in the sin channel

delicate bone
#

Lmao, and you’re wrong, but that’s ok 🙂

balmy condor
#

but that's my opinion?

plain thistle
#

and not only yours, outlaw is poopoo

sullen fossil
#

Outlaw is meme

delicate bone
#

Outlaw>sin m+ sin>outlaw raid 🙂 ezpz

balmy condor
#

sin and outlaw are viable in their own rights

delicate bone
#

No need to be so defensive though, I was legit just giving the dude an option 🙂

balmy condor
#

but we're not playing outlaw

#

cause we don't like outlaw

delicate bone
#

You*

balmy condor
#

so we don't play outlaw

sullen fossil
#

Us

balmy condor
#

no, I said we

#

I meant we

delicate bone
#

Lmao, why not play both?

balmy condor
#

cause we don't like outlaw?

#

what part of this is confusing

#

outlaw no fun
me like fun
me no play outlaw

west totem
#

Assa is funnier imo

#

Imaging having to roll for the right thing to do damage

delicate bone
#

Yes mb, smash FoK, you right

west totem
#

Click Blade Flurry for damage

balmy condor
#

see, you don't like playing sin

#

now take that logic

#

and apply it to us, not playing outlaw

delicate bone
#

Literally why so close minded to change? Lmfao, like I love sin, but I also love outlaw, it’s not wrong to enjoy both classes

#

Wait, I literally said I like sin for raid lmao

balmy condor
#

we're not talking about raids tho

#

we never were

delicate bone
#

I would never come to this channel if I didn’t like sin, just told the dude to try outlaw if he didn’t like the sin m+ build/play style

#

And I’m talking about whatever I want to talk about tbh 🙂

balmy condor
#

and that's fine

#

but don't rope me into it

#

cause I'm not talking about raids

delicate bone
#

I responded to him telling@him to use outlaw for m+ and you jumped in. I wasn’t talking to you, so you roped yourself in 🙂

sullen fossil
#

If someone is talking about m+ in a sin channel what makes you think They wanna Hear: oh just play outlaw

delicate bone
#

I just don’t see why you have to be defensive and argue about it, I was literally telling him if he was having issues with the guild or playstyle, he can spec outlaw and see how he like it. Then make an educated decision on their preference at that point

#

Build*

balmy condor
#

because Pepega play outlul

#

isn't very helpful when someone is trying to learn about sin in m+

delicate bone
#

It wasn’t meant to be helpful, per say, it was meant to show that he had options

balmy condor
#

then I agree with you

#

there are specs in the game that can be played

delicate bone
#

I think you had a bad day though, I hope the rest of your day goes better ❤️

forest saffron
#

Is raz guide the one in the pins?

balmy condor
#

yes

forest saffron
#

It sets crit and mastery as equal but 2other guides have told me different

#

Ill dm him

balmy condor
#

its just crit and mastery are both good

#

stats are a balance

sullen fossil
#

Just stack crit and you'll be fine

forest saffron
#

Oh ok

#

So if all my peices r crit is ok then

#

thats eprfect

#

perfect cause then I dont gotta replace anything

balmy condor
#

crit as the second stat

#

not the main

#

haste is the main focus

forest saffron
#

Yeah yeah

#

haste first

#

yup

balmy condor
#

then yeah

sullen fossil
#

Wait was it for raid or m+

#

Thought for m+

balmy condor
#

as long as its crit or mastery on the second

#

doesn't matter

#

he's talking about raids

#

asked about it earlier

forest saffron
#

thanks tons 🙂

sullen fossil
#

Oh sorry.. Just hit 34% crit so

#

It should be perfect

obtuse island
#

Any tips for Raden mythic? Like should I use vendeta blood etc on the first orb? Or hold it for when I go back on the boss / adds?

rancid bobcat
#

its pretty much single target

#

you shouldnt need to put cooldowns into the orbs

#

or adds

obtuse island
#

Cheers, I’ll just put it all into Raden 👌🏻 I’ll hold onto them a little longer in the beginning

#

For after 1st orb dies

void pecan
#

An outlawl coming to sin saying play dumb spec then wonders why they (we) get defensive. monkahmm

#

Are we getting exp 3 tomorrow though. Did they mine right?!

rancid bobcat
strange python
#

US reset is in like 13hrs or so I think

#

You'll know then

sleek pecan
#

Ash you could wait for the adds and bleed them up before using blood

rancid bobcat
#

wouldnt suggest that for prog

#

unless you have some weird ass comp that cant aoe the adds down

#

adds come out pretty late so you're holding cds in essentially a dps check fight

desert torrent
#

is it worth learning assassination for raids or are the other specs sufficient?

#

kind of a general rogue question but i thought i should ask here

cobalt pelican
#

depends on what raiding you're t alking about

#

generally over the course of wows history it'd be pretty good to learn assassination at least a little bit though

desert torrent
#

just like usual single target stuff, i havent started raiding a lot yet

glacial crown
#

How much crit can we stop at so we can start adding more haste for this build?

arctic walrus
#

there's no specific breakpoints for any stat

glacial crown
#

@arctic walrus thank you

rancid bobcat
#

i mean if you're already invested into outlaw, or for some ungodly reason subtlety, you don't neeeeeed to switch

#

but if you're starting a rogue from 0 then assassination is probably the best route

is Expedient + Exsanguinate build good for M+?

arctic walrus

Exsang sure expedient no

expedient is still pretty decent in low trash dungeons

@rain sierra don't use weights, use sims

are there any good guides for the exsan build? going to swap to it next time expedient comes up

vast forum
#

none written atm, but you can go through logs to see how ppl play and ask questions here

woeful minnow
#

the most recent pin is the expedient/exsang guide

vast forum
#

eh

#

it's a bit outdated already 😄

late helm
#

infexious recently posted a vid of mythic maut where he goes over what he does

vast forum
#

imagine recommending poison bomb with high expedient 😛

woeful minnow
#

CT doesn't always sim better, it requires pretty much the best gear

#

but yes I guess that's missing from the guide, I wouldn't ignore it though, it's still very good to learn how to play the build

vast forum
#

yea it's decent

spark olive
#

well shit, just pulled it up, you got anything else worthy to watch or learn from?

#

i know very little about the build so any bad habits from the beginning are going to stick for a bit lol

balmy condor
#

just follow the pinned guide

fallow otter
#

@gusty kestrel but they are so cruspy

glacial steppe
#

Im honestly just watching his videos because of his accent

#

too good

idle nova
#

it's pretty straightforward. if you're looking for fight specific things like whether to vanish / cd right away on a boss like raden or when to use your first vanish on a fight like wrathion where you run vision minor, you can look at the cast timeline on some of the top logs @spark olive

spark olive
#

@idle nova yeah i'

#

ill have to look at some of the logs but geting a basis for now

#

im tired of they "hey did you great" to wtf proc were those only 1 tendy!? theres like 2m dmg lol

tough cypress
#

Any idea if Tiny Electromental in a Jar procs off bleeds?

minor garden
#

can the bleed build compete with outlaw in m+ ?

#

nah?

tropic ocean
#

dps wise yes

#

Utility wise no

grizzled jay
#

Does Outlaw bring more Utility? Their stun is part of their DPS rotation.

#

So they stun DR mobs, seems like bad utility to me lol

smoky lintel
#

They have gouge as well for interrupts though.

#

Plus the stun comes up way more often than ks

grizzled jay
#

Sin has Iron Wire

#

And Subterfuge letting you Iron Wire 3 mobs in a pack

smoky lintel
#

Not everything that needs interrupts is a spell

#

Plus that's assuming you always get a stealth opener

grizzled jay
#

How can you not get a stealth opener

smoky lintel
#

Large pulls.

#

Especially higher keys.

grizzled jay
#

Higher keys do smaller pulls GWchadThonkery

smoky lintel
#

But as far as I'm aware assa is fine for a good while into key levels

#

You can wait for someone else to reply I guess blobshrug

arctic walrus
#

vanish cheap, gouge, non dr stun on non main targets but still getting damage's worth

#

iron wire only gets value on opener, you're not going to vanish garrote something soley for the intent of silencing the target mid pull

grizzled jay
#

It wouldn't solely for the silence, no. It comes with raw damage on top of it you'd normally like anyways.

tropic ocean
#

higher keys usually do larger pulls

#

also free dps stun with 10% dmg buff is huge

#

iron wire only gets value on opener, you're not going to vanish garrote something soley for the intent of silencing the target mid pull
@arctic walrus sometimes you actually do

smoky lintel
#

Also not just large pulls but chain pulls.

#

Where you dont drop combat.

arctic walrus
#

yeah sure sometimes

tropic ocean
#

I pretty much do it in kr on the packs after 2nd boss

#

Or in begin of shrine

#

Silence pretty neat there

sturdy python
#

No, best to check the guide in the pins

#

And just replace the first envenom with CT I believe

civic forge
#

so on logs it seems theres a decent split between hidden blades and crimson tempest for keys, is there pros and cons to both? personal preference? whats the reason for the difference

#

and even poison bomb

rigid eagle
#

man i dont fucking get wrathion

#

before he takes off for the first time im 80-90k dps like everyone else

#

but after everyone walks back to boss im suddenly down to 60k while other ppl are still 75k-ish

fathom swift
#

just run after him and cloak it ez

sleek pecan
#

You have to stay on the Boss and cloak the Explosion

i legit dealt less dmg than a survival hunter by the end of the fight lol

if you dont do strats to parse you wont parse

rigid eagle
#

wait yall are serious

when u said to just tank sht with cloak

#

oh...

fathom swift
#

yes, you run in and cloak when hes got a couple seconds left on the cast

#

you take some ticking damage but nothing that will kill you through a healthstone

rigid eagle
#

what if the raid strat is to let wrath run back to group?

fathom swift
#

dont do it or run back with him up to you

rigid eagle
#

i see

civic forge
#

gotta dig through the parses that aren't millions of TA/stars damage

#

or ones that kill b4 pillar phase, unless you aren't getting them yourself

sleek pecan
#

Do you try to parse on mythic or heroic?

balmy condor
#

heroic parses aren't really impressive for most people imo

ornate gazelle
#

Anyone know offhand the difference in dps using the "use 3 abilities..." and "damage an enemy from behind..."

arctic walrus
#

30% uptime difference, dont have a number off the top of my head though

ornate gazelle
#

Ah okay so def want the damage from behind one

rigid eagle
#

@ornate gazelle the from behind one is insanely forgiving

#

your attack can legit be so "in front" that it gets parried

#

and you still get the buff

idle nova
#

dot ticks count as behind no matter what

#

@ornate gazelle

steep plover
#

Sims keep telling me to stack crit, do i ignore it and go heavy haste with expedient if it comes out tmr?

ornate gazelle
#

Wow that's amazing thanks guys

#

I asked because a socketed honed mind III use 3 abilities ring dropped and was curious if saving it for when i equip HMIII would be worth over the damage from behind one

#

Ultimately i'll just sim it

rigid eagle
#

@steep plover you can do some hacking and sim stat weight with the exped added lol, i have no idea how but supposedly you manually change the simcraft input

#

edit the string of stuff you copy/paste so simcraft thinks you have exped 3

steep plover
#

I could use top gear no? U can add corruptions and shit

#

I think thatd work

idle nova
#

^

steep plover
#

Ill give it a look tyyy

idle nova
steep plover
#

Ye thats the one

rigid eagle
#

top gear lets you see how adding corruptions change ur dmg

#

but not raw stat weight

steep plover
#

Oh right

rigid eagle
#

u'd kinda have to infer that info from what its telling u to wear

#

and sometimes simcraft doesnt make sense

#

like the time it said crit was my best stat but also made me drop bote minor...

idle nova
#

stat weights change with every piece of gear you change. pretty pointless. just sim for your top gear / best corruptions you can put on with the gear you have / purchased corruptions

steep plover
#

I fucked up by putting severe 3 on a 475 dagger 😭

rigid eagle
#

severe 3 is bis for m+ so

steep plover
#

Probs gna have ti cleanse to stack the expedients

rigid eagle
#

which 475 dagger is it lol

steep plover
#

Ye i mainly m+ but i think it might intefere with an expedient build no?

#

Um fuck

#

I forgot the name

#

Its the one thats heaps curved

rigid eagle
#

#

...

#

if it has a shtload of haste on it u might consider cleansing, but like if its a crit master dagger

#

just keep it and oneshot stuff in m+ with it lol

steep plover
#

Oh sweet

#

Ye ill give it a look when i hop back on

#

Thanks cuz

last gyro
sleek pecan
#

How much haste should you have to go for exsang/ct build?

shrewd night
#

CT wasnt better for me until I hit ~55% haste, but sim yourself to see when its worth to swap over.

sleek pecan
#

Yeah im pretty unsure about my sims so i like to get other players experience

steep plover
#

Btw should i just hold on to my expedients till im able to get the gear for it (haste car or whatever)

#

I feel like that might take a while tho

sleek pecan
#

i feel like answering this is kinda hard, do you need the extra damage for your current progress? what kind of gear do you already have?

steep plover
#

Ye my bad for being vague, i dont really have much haste, its like around 43% crit, and around the 20% mark for haste

#

And 39% mastery

#

But ye my sims arent very good although i do end up pretty close to my simmed dps

#

I dont have much gear that has like a good amount of haste on it because i never really cared for improving raid dps till recently

gleaming viper
unique depot
#

Anyone know why no matter what I do breath is consistently simming higher for me than bote by about 2k is it just better synergy for bote

strange python
#

If breath is simming higher by 2k, use it obviously?

#

Same for me, bit more than 2k though

#

It's nice for pretty much every fight in nyalotha by design

#

Bote/Clf pull ahead once again if you got a minmaxed expedient Setup and Shit I guess

#

Breath is just a really strong Essence, thats it

Do you use a special APL for Crimson Tempest on ST?

hollow escarp
#

is there any spreadsheet with the snapshoting breaking points for bleeds? like how much haste do I need to get a 1.1 sec garrote?

fathom swift
#

what do you mean breaking points

hollow escarp
#

as I said, how much haste do you need for 0.1 sec faster ticks of bleeds

drifting cloud
#

no

fathom swift
#

does the specific tick rate matter?

shrewd night
#

No

hollow escarp
#

idk, I like to know that so I can understand how powerful the bleeds are

fathom swift
#

they do big dam

shrewd night
#

Literally doesnt matter

hollow escarp
#

so why do we need haste then? hmm

shrewd night
#

what.. you.. huh?

#

We want haste because haste is good, we dont aim for specific breakpoints

drifting cloud
#

you gonna unequip haste and crit procs?

#

and mastery

fathom swift
#

its like you want your racing car to go fast but you dont aim for "ok lets go 200 km/h exactly not 205 or 210"

#

same thing

hollow escarp
#

well, it's either that I didn't manage to explain what I was thinking of or I'm too dumb for this spec

drifting cloud
#

like we told you it doesnt exist

hollow escarp
#

so the tooltip tick is irrelevant?

shrewd night
#

Yes.

hollow escarp
#

ok, so every point of haste matters

fathom swift
#

yes

hollow escarp
#

thanks

shrewd night
#

The only time when haste matters is when you push exsang, outside of that haste is nothing you need to worry about

fathom swift
#

if you mean like does 99 haste give no increase in tick but 100 gives 0.1 no, it doesn't work like that

hollow escarp
#

yeah, I get it now

ornate gazelle
#

does honed mind have a consistent proc rate from pull to pull? gotta decide between 1 mind flay II or 1 honed mind III and they're within 100 dps of each other

cobalt pelican
#

tickrates are just original debuff timer/1+haste% i think

#

not that it really matters

#

so garrote is 2, 2/1.71 (71% haste) is like 1.1 tick interval

strange python
#

IIRC it mattered before 6.X.smth.
But ever since then, bleeds scale smoothly with haste in DPS and total damage dealt.

Like, if you have a 15s Bleed and your haste makes it tick every 2 Seconds, you'd get 7 Ticks and then none. Is that what you meant?
But ever since that Patch it will just deal one final tick at the end with damage equal to the %of the Tick that happened already.
So in the example Case: 7 Ticks at normal Power, one 50% Power Tick at the last sec
@hollow escarp

cobalt pelican

honed mind is pretty high uptime

ornate gazelle

thanks

def more consistent than mind flay

hollow escarp
#

so wait, if my slow mage timewarps after I applied my empowered garrotes, I'm not affected anymore?

tropic ocean
#

yes you are affected

cobalt pelican
#

every dot tickrate is checked and updated dynamically

#

besides exsanguinated bleeds

#

there's really nothing technical you need to worry about with this spec b esides not overwriting subterfuge buffed garrotes or exsanguinated bleeds

hollow escarp
#

ok so I need timewarp before exsang

fathom swift
#

yes

hollow escarp
#

I knew about the overwriting stuff from S1 but skipped 2 seasons and I wasn't sure how haste affects the damage

#

thanks for clearing things up

vast forum
#

if ppl don't use lust in the first 6 sec of the fight, they're not just slow

@hollow escarp haste is a major energy return. Letting you fill more globals. It's not just for bleed damage ticks. Bleeds on poisons return Energy.

lone junco

If your lust is a notoriously late, you can hold trinket exang until it hits. The empowered garrotes and vendetta last quite a while.

#

You can run the opener without it. Just gonna be limp later when nothing lines up with it.

#

Imagine a mid block lust. Where you get exang on a normal garrote and no vendetta.

Normally stop at aotc but we had 18 so we got a few friends of friends to fill out for 20.

But figured since we had until November. We might kill a few bosses.

@tepid tundra you should be stacking haste for st. And it should be a raid goal to get the expedients with exang. It's not a miracle like IS

spark oyster

well maybe i'll play it when itll outsim my 465 spyglass OMEGALUL

lone junco

But simc can show you the difference between your bis and that build. If they are close , I'd start heading that way.

But gear doesn't help your roatation.

Don't need a rotation if you stack IS and Tendy.

should i be putting exp 3 on only crit/hast pieces?

whole mantle

is that good for 39 corruption?

475 pieces gives 1000 residuum back right

this exang build on this week is good for keys ?

plush remnant

Sims telling me 475 dice is better than 475 plumage. Just curious if one or the other performs better in raid.

@solar flicker gotten 3 of those in a row pepehands

Extravagant Epaulettes are pretty good 🤔

Yeh using 1 for single target 1 for aoe atm

Everyone saying get haste, get expedient 3... but raidbots in patchwerk and hectic shows expedient a downgrade for all my slots... trhis game has mne completely confused now... there's just too many variables, M+ gear, raid gear, single target, multi target, talents, essences, traits, corruptions...

crimson palm
#

Ok

main adder
#

i could use some help sorting this out if anyone is available 🙂

fathom swift
#

Link sim?

main adder
#

raid gear or M+ gear?

fathom swift
#

Raid obv why run expedient in m+

dire spoke
main adder
#

1 sec doing a quick sim for ya

strange python
#

why do you post a quick sim if you want help with gearing decisions

main adder
#

he said post a sim

#

and it shows my gear at the top of the sim

strange python
#

ok darwinsaward

#

post a top gear sim

dire spoke
#

but it doesnt show your bag options

main adder
#

ah

#

hmm how do i do a top gear sim that shows you all my gear?

strange python
#

it saves the input so we can press "sim again" and see all the options

fathom swift
#

If expedients simming at a loss st its prob cause ur running different talents etc. to most people now

main adder
#

ah

fathom swift
#

Like not running exsang + ss etc

tribal obsidian
#

Or not enough

lean marten
#

or running simbaits like IS

vast forum
#

if expedient is simming at a loss, you have bad azerite/trinkets/low haste probably

#

like, not having OP on gear makes expedient less relevant

tribal obsidian
#

Im guessing infinite stars compared to like 2 expedient

fathom swift
#

Hes not using is its just the talents

hidden maple
#

instead of simming against your current build, just leap of faith commit to the new build and try to make that one stronger.

main adder
#

a new one wont work if I dont have thr right stats to make it work

vast forum
#

get gorak tul's 😄

main adder
#

so i cant just leap into it, it'll suck

fathom swift
#

Nah your stats are prob enough

vast forum
#

also, your SS/DD/subterfuge/TB build is kinda weird ngl 😄

#

you need ra'den helm and gorak/ilgy shoulders 😛

mint oar
#

does the ilvl of the item affect the exp worthness?

fathom swift
#

Try simming with exsang and deeper stratagem see how it goes

main adder
#

ok thanks Bolas

vast forum
#

also try

#

clf instead of bote

#

and iris instead of conflict

#

i mean

fathom swift
#

You dont need 3x ss or full expedient to make it usable

vast forum
#

0 OP on azerite, no vita and no haste essences

#

no wonder expedient doesn't sim too well

#

overwhelming power

wet ruin
#

pretty sure he was trying a single expedient from the corruption picker, so there is very very very low chance exsang is better with that

mint oar
#

nvm

vast forum
#

there's almost no haste to be amplified on that gear

mint oar
#

do you run deeper strat in m+?

fathom swift
#

I was playing exsang with 1 expedient piece months ago its not that bad

wet ruin
#

its not better

fathom swift
#

Ya but it gets better

#

And its not worse

willow pulsar
#

Better at what

wet ruin
#

'it gets better', yes, with multiple expedients and SS

fathom swift
#

Better at doing damage

willow pulsar
#

Nah

plush remnant
hidden maple
#

but i wanna tank

fathom swift
#

It starts at about the same and scales more whats bad about that

wet ruin
#

there is no way it is the same

#

can you link me a sim

main adder
#

I have a vita but it's 445 so I havent been using it

hidden maple
#

full build MA/TB will probably do more dmg than duct taped Exsang build sure

#

but MA/TB has already kinda reached its peak

tribal obsidian
#

MA KEKW

proven talon
#

...is this guy joking or what

#

there is not a single top rogue that plays ma tb

woeful minnow
#

you misread what he's saying

proven talon
#

i must have

jolly finch
#

He never said there was

woeful minnow
#

or just misunderstood

strange python
#

dd/tb/subt plays fine with lots of haste and even with ds, no need to force ss/exsang if your gear just isnt there yet

wet ruin
#

^

fathom swift
#

can you link me a sim
@wet ruin what kind of sim do you want me to link, i havent had that gear in months

wet ruin
#

just do it with your gear, put only one expedient and show me exsang is better

fathom swift
#

All my gear is expedient m8

#

And im in bed so

main adder
#

ok doing a top gear sim for ya... so you can see what otrher gear i have, maybe i can pout expedient on 2 of those pieces or something, but ya, i def need better azerite pieces.

wet ruin
#

I am saying this cuz almost everyone here is telling people to go full expedient and pick certain talents when they don't have the gear for it

strange python
#

full expedient is fine just everyone wanting to play ss/exsang isnt

main adder
#

445 vita simming better than 475 dragonscale

tiny sierra
#

does exsang apply to crimson tempest as wwell?

strange python
#

yes

#

but you dont play around that fact

fathom swift
#

I said "Try simming with exsang and deeper stratagem see how it goes" not "exsang is always better buy only expedient"

wet ruin
#

yes, thats my point, tb is not that far off from SS exsang, it only gets ahead with very end-game gear

broken oriole
#

Would the 470 carapace dagger be better for offhand due to the haste? I don't see an option for offhand on raidbots.

strange python
#

@main adder how many echoes you got right now?

main adder
#

11k

wet ruin
#

ye, but there is no point in getting him to sim exsang when he clearly doesn't have the gear for it

fathom swift
#

Its already a 2k dps increase so clearly he does have the gear for it

tiny sierra
#

so you shouldnt be actively going outta your way to exsang CT bleeds?

sullen pagoda
#

how do u know if "he clearly doesnt have the gear for it"

#

it doesnt cost him anything to just sim it

fathom swift
#

^

sullen pagoda
#

and its not like hes gonna buy some other corruption, expedient is best at the end of the day exsang or not

fathom swift
#

Brain sims < actually spending 5 min to see what real sims say

storm perch
#

ye expedient is still great even if you go DD/TB

wet ruin
#

ah yes

#

CLEARLY

#

he sims better with exsang

#

just cuz you told him to pick it

#

this is my point

sullen pagoda
#

and what did it cost him to sim it

#

are u being a pepeclown for no reason

fathom swift
#

Now try with the 2 extra rank 3 expedients he can buy 🙂

fervent jasper
#

how much haste do you need to play CT on ST? im sitting at 4300 haste

#

63%

lean marten
#

Time is more valuable for different people Hmm

main adder
#

ok

quasi pewter
#

@fervent jasper sim 🙂

sullen pagoda
#

@fervent jasper S I M

main adder
#

Thanks Annsie and everyoine for the help so far, I really appreciate it

strange python
#

it doesnt even matter if he plays exsang or tb, he wants expedient anyway

#

with either build

#

its the exact same stats

fervent jasper
#

1 target patchwerk 5m?

main adder
#

its also simming so high cos he added sockets to my gear that doesnt have them

fathom swift
#

And when its within 100 dps (without any optimization) and will only scale higher the better gear he gets it's a bit disingenuous to say he doesnt currently have the gear to use it

woeful minnow
#

bro did you actually sim 2 minutes to prove a point

red plaza
#

patchwerk 3m is a good one depending on your guilds kill times as well

strange python
#

its also simming so high because its 180sec
