even at low gear levels?
i guess it scales with all 4 stats, whereas env only scales with 3
so if it works at low haste levels it should work at all gear levels
so i can make a build whit those traits and it will work?

depends how you define work @left tendon
it will do damage and prolly be fun to play. will it be optimal? no
i define it like can i do the damegd req for dungeons 🙂
oof
no no no
don't do 3dd 3np in dungeons
i thought you were talking about raids
it's almost like you're not using any traits
there are only 2 good spec-specific traits for m+ and they're SS and EB
HoD and BBI also work well
it will do damage and prolly be fun to play. will it be optimal? no
@lean marten pretty sure u will be below tank in dmg with 3 dd 3np
XD
wait till the godpull and u get 99% vendetta uptime lul
exactly
hahahah
I tried ages ago to play something like that in tyran kr and even then it wasnt worth
and now for kr/ws u can just play raidbuild and pump 100k dps into boss
while still having 90k+ overall
so 0 need for np or shit
to see which food buff youre supposed to use. do you use stat weight and eat the highest stat?
Would anyone be able to tell me wtf i am doing wrong with this exsang rotation? Simming at like 87k, only pulling 80k on pretty stationary fights (Shad'har, for example)
I feel like my TB build was better at this point
@strange python gotta post a log.
I did, got someone looking at it 🙂
ty ty
Next time we do shad in Def posting a log since I sim at 91k at know I won't hit it.
Tear me apart
Tell me how much I suck
ALSO just before everyone says why are you doing this, my sims say run 3x DD/1x SS. I don't know why it says that but yeah that's why I'm doing it
CT in single just doesnt look like it fits. So weird.
first thing I see is the lust at 3:00 will put you substantially behind the sim value
Id be suprised DS sims higher with that kit
4 minute fight length is always a bit of a nightmare for vendetta too
Id be surprised if the subterfuge/Vigor/tb/pb doesnt sim higher.
i havent done a CLF main in a while, but if it doesnt have time to stack the haste, the buff will be smol
and right before exang seems wimpy. But I may be wrong there.
should it be sooner or delay that exang? cause 4% haste is not 10% haste

takes 8 sec to stack full
raz's guide covers the opening with clf
using second pot when boss is about to die might be a bit of dmg loss
probably should've timed that second vanish vendetta with CLF
lost dps there for sure
yeah. Raz guide would give 7 to 8 seconds between clf and exang
on shorter fight yeah for sure
thats if you dont get 6 cp
but ok
but in theory i'd think even going for opener 1 at 6 cp with clf might be a dps gain
getting that haste buff time to stack before you exang sounds ideal, but talking the diff between 4% and 10% when an expedient is what 12%. so probably smol
not bad here.
its worth to buy Severe 2 now or wait for 3¿? (M+)
but yeah the lust also being outside of vendetta window hurts dps
mut on 4 is a bit weird
but we did it in legion, but had the cheap garrotes to use for cps there.
@strange python what is your sim come in at with this gear?
3x Double dose for 8.6%
also, on 4 min fights you wanna delay your 2nd vend to align with CLF
although, for people who don't know their killtimes it's better to just stick to using stuff on CD 😄
shots fired
So I keep looking for people using DD and its always the same
literally an accident
Sims at 87k
@strange python https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/mgz1KSX1nKfehH84nWt6ix if you're curious 4min just simmed your talents + azerite 4min
ss taking over on 4min over your DDs lol
even 87k sim doing 80, with lust landing outside of your exang or vendetta
if the fight is going to stay < 415. hold that vendetta vanish for the lust.
obviously you cant plan when the lust goes off all the time. but it sucks to burn cds, and watch lust turn in to big fat nothing
Got it. Tbh i didnt even factor in how long the fight would take, was just doing the normal rotation
the only reason you have a peak there is Guardian
I use Exorsus Raid tools, and it has a TTD Time to Death counter
so you know if its <2mins, you can delay for a better time (if any)
our shamans fucking lust at like 9s
you don't hold CLF for 2nd vendetta in a 4 min fight
you hold your 2nd vendetta for 2nd clf
and i swear. i would scream if i played exang and they werent mashing it
Oh there’s an addon for timers like that? Might have to snag that
oh right mb
I have fight timer and TTD timer
wrong way around
and tbh, you might look at that 3ss solution, and just getting it solid. cause you cant cleave with DD, and 3ss where you are headed anyway
even if it is a small loss like 0.3%
So just roll with 3x ss
Do you have Blood of the Enemy even?
Once again clf simmed higher so i just went with that
also at these haste lvl shouldn't formless void take over lucid dreams ?
he has quite a few pieces without haste on them so its not absurdly high.
im just saying, dont be afraid to play comparable builds. cause itty bitty losses are still similar
but it looks like you played it ok.
other than the vendetta vanish delay for lust. due to fight length
but cant always tell how long its going to be.
cause dead people make the fight last longer.
If ya'll wanna see all the goodies
I have a few pieces I can use for upgrades but just wanted to wait for exp to roll back around
I'm almost certain even just one socket will make ss better for you
lol
it's very close
So im literally right on the threshold lol
close enough to play both and achieve similar ST results, ss is the bonus like noobe said
anytime you can cleave it shits over dd
Yeah the build overall felt surprisingly good on cara and nozth
And more ss would just make it better
use some crit gems on your sockets I guess
try to sim it but that should do the trick
Sim just wants 1 crit gem and a crit enchant
but feels kinda weird, I am missing mechagon rings also
guess it would bump it up
any logs? context i.e. gear before vs gear now
The big logs have like 4k haste unbuffed. So there's definitely a spread
When are you guys using 2nd vendetta on cara? He phases too fast in P1 to fit another and the wall growths die too damn fast lol
depends on kill times
Idk if skipping to the next set of growths is trolling or not to actually get value
i use mine while he runs up to last platform
So I just got a mythic coral, current trinkets are Plumage 465, and a Humming scale. Im getting lower sims with the coral in general which I expect. Was just wondering when is the optimal point at which to use it? Or if at all. I have seen mixed things about it
if you're getting lower sims with coral, don't use it
plumage just better
Im struggling to get a consistent sim rn, any advice? https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/uhfZYaqNHcKw42BGo7Pw27 My enchants keep flopping between crit and haste, and my talent keeps flopping between Subt and MA. I'm enjoying the Double Dose playstyle (plus I don't have the ability to haste stack for Exsan+CT) but am getting confused over my stat priority
@ruby ibex listen. When you sim there is a % difference. When gemming one way is a 0.1% gain, and you do it. And then you sim again and it tells you to go back...
Just stop. Very very small gains are negligable. Esp when what you need is ilvl. You cant squeeze dps out of a rock.
exactly 0 sockets
stats are very close in value for assa
you won't get 2k more dps by changing your enchants
It's the same way with dd and ss and any other build. Look at the variances. If it's sub 0.5% gain, maybe it's ok to play either.
work on getting sockets and better gear in general
480 azerites from TR vendor would be nice.
guys quick question, do you get 100% haste uptime with the 2 mechagon rings or does it have an internal cd? like the healing one
Buff last 15 seconds and icd of buff is 15 seconds
So it can fall off very momentarily but still be like >95% uptime
Sounds good, much appreciated. I try to sim every item I get, and that's where the back and forth seems to be most frequent, but I get the "dps out of a rock" thing haha -- thanks! 😄
also idk why you're simming iris major and unbound force minor
Wowhead says UBF is better for ST, and I wanna keep simming them to see if it ever swaps while I work towards r3
Psure it wont until rank 3, but if I have the spare capacity
Sup guys, I'm new to the game, I'm using my brother's old account, and I'm looking for some tips to improve my dps, because I can't get out of the 55% damage done in raidlogs to my ilv, I think I'm missing trinkets and rotation, but I accept any help you can offer me. thanks in advance.
My char
ilvl matters much less than what gear you have
blood of the enemy rank 2 is shit
you need rank 3
your trinkets are pretty bad
you have an infinite star which only really works well on a few fights
you should probably sim poison bomb instead of crimson tempest
you need more sockets
how do i make IS on a 3 target fight but only 1 really matter?
is it bfa.infinite_stars_miss_chance=0.66?
probably ye
you need rank 3
@vast forum I'm farming now
your trinkets are pretty bad
@vast forum
any tips?
get vita from raden and KR trinket (lustrous golden plumage)
you should probably sim poison bomb instead of crimson tempest
@vast forum I was thinking the same thing to change, but the best dps in the raid logs use the crinson tempest, so I'm in doubt if I get a poison bomb or not
get vita from raden and KR trinket (lustrous golden plumage)
@vast forum Ty
you need more sockets
@vast forum OK
best logs use crimson tempest because it becomes good with high-end gear
at super high haste levels
which you don't have
best logs use crimson tempest because it becomes good with high-end gear
@vast forum
Hmm, thanks for the tips man, seriously.
np
!stats
Its very hard to make statements about stat trends in the current patch.
Please use a simulation to generate results for your personal gear situation.
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/dhkH39f54LrnXuQ1CxqmTV How come i sim so low? Do i need ALOT more haste? And why is Harlan's better than ra'den?
And what is the general playstyle? Idk if i'm playing it wrrong, feel like im missing out on alot of damage due to player mistakes
you have heart of darkness with literally 0 net corruption
and harlans probably still gonna sim a bit higher but raidbots doesnt account for the party buff either so ye
@loud light that i now, fixing it, just did a quick sim
also what viper said
@loud light most of my stuff is in bank
with high enough expidents i think nothing porsonel becomes worst then heart of darkness too
your haste should be fine on the items you really just need those expidents
and alot of sockets...
Yeeeeeeeah, this rogue has been benched for a while
Expedient 2 is tomorrow i do believe
Honed mind?
its the last corruption you put in the gear
Ah
when we max out corruption resis
I'll prolly wait with that until i got more exped :p
wise choice
im pretty sure you shouldnt buuy to many expidents 2 either
so you can stock up echoes when exp3 comes arround
kinda whish i had those daggers lol
quite lucky on weeklies :p
im not going carapace mythic any time soon
so im only rocking 475 crit/mast main + 470 shard on off hand...
Ah FeelsBadMan
biggest oof i have on my gear x)
But my gear in itself is fine yeah?
yep
haste on everything + mechagon rings
yo hsould aim for vita + plumage tho
on trinkets
racing pulse > honed mind possibly
@lethal bobcat One thing btw, how and when do i use exsang?
ty
Can i run this build with toxic blade still?
These are the only azerites i currenly have
Yeah, when i get 2x exped 2 tomorrow, can i start playing this build u think?

^
well simming isn't really gonna help me, this rogue has like i said been benched for a long while, and i've been playing tank, idk what i need to have in order for this build to do damage
although what normally is said it to aim above 60%
but thats something you really justh ave to sim...
the aim is simple...
expidents
the moment you get more expidents
sim exsang vs tb
alright
and keep doing that until it sims higher
btw exsang is basically always going to win (even now) when you have 3x SS on your gear
why do alot of people wear severes?
think ppl have been trying severes
severes are better for m+ simply cuse of echoing blade
so that might be a reason too
severes has just been a test tho... at least to my knowledge
Alright 🙂
I was close to buying some severe, but i'll save everything for expedients
ye i would avise to save for expidents first
and then start working on the severes if you into m+
Yeah
but even an expidents build doesnt do that bad on m+... specially if you go junkyard... expidents broken in there
Will most likely farm echoes as outlaw, then buy expeds
One more tiny question, is it because i have no expedients the damage falls off super quick?
3xSS and exsang and blood of the enemy lead to a profile where you get huge burst during your vendetta/blood/exsang window and then relatively low damage outside of that
the meme is that you do your burst and then afk for 2 mins
although is just a meme and dont take it seriously cuse you still do about 60k/70k dps in the downtime xD
Im running the expedient build rn
its great
im a huge fan
But I'm also a 2.4k scrub
finaly got haste proc ring, still need the attack from behind one but any other ideas on what i should work on
exp 2 and honed mind are up on the vendor now
Is there a good way to figure out what combination of strikethrough + severe will be the best
Idk how good simming is for m+ scenarios
^ wondering as well
probably just sim some multi target patchwork at short fight length
pick up some severes or drop them to get around 40%, overwise go with strikethrough
What essences/corruption # after resist/talents do you take for Sin in Visions? (exsang build)
Have only done them as outlaw
same shit in principle
you dont need lots of damage to do visions so 39 is fine
leeching is objectively the best choice cause cheat doesnt work
though the healing is quite negligible
Still BotE?
yeah its good for a big pull nuke
i just go in with raid essences
a lot of the stuff in there arent actually aberrations
Lol alright :) thanks, you're right
I know this has been answered before but I can’t find it. For longer fights, say Carapace or N’Zoth, do you wanna use CLF off CD or save it? I know with shorter fights just to use it on CD
logic works the same
your decision to hold to sync or use on cd depends on if you get another cast or not
though neither are full patchwork fights so youll have to consider the fight itself
e.g. you can maybe get an extra cast if you use during carapace intermission, but do you really want to do that
e.g. you can get extra casts using it during nzoth tentacles/psychus/mythic phase, but do you really want to do that instead of casting into boss burn
Fair point, I like blood better because of the “convenience” in the CD, that being holding off 30 seconds isn’t that bad, but CLF just seems super clunky but it’s simming like 900 dps higher than BotE
if you're farming the fight you also probably know the answer. if you're progging the fight you can probably deduce the answer
I want one honed mind correct?
maybe?
So, DD is a thing of the past. Basically go haste with expedient and get SS?
in a perfect world
DD is still good if you don't have the optimal setup to make haste build work
you can buy a honed mind 3 now but corruption resistance to use it won't be high enough to use it at least until next time it comes around
unless you want to try and parse with 79 or someshit
How long does something have to live to be worth using garrote
Probably in a raid encounter
just apply it
very fringe case
at worst you'll just lose 1 mutilate at the end of a fight if you decide to reapply garrote over mutilating and the boss dies before your next gcd
wont turn your purple parse into an orange
Very good sir
that'd be running rank 12 tendies at 80-85 corruption
is there a haste level that the overclocking punchard gets decent? I guess i would have seen some sims already if it was good
it's true I saw it in a video once
what's the highest strikethrough? is it the one in vendor now, at 4%?
yes
maybe its posted somewhere (in which id love to be linked to it as ive done some searches but cant find it) but how are people simming for the severe/strikethrough corruption build for keys? dungeonslice?
if anyone has tips or tricks or can point me in the right direction that would be appriciated !
40% crit and the rest strike is what ive been told
but where does honed mine come into play ?
@cedar depot honed mind is for raid set lol
to go with your rank 10 trillion expedient
oh lmao
good thing i didnt buy one xd
but outside of the 40% crit from severe i stack the rest strike and thats it thats all basketball ?
no expedients ?
haste at 12% feels awkward
boss fights are going to suck fucking ass for sure
esp high key tyrannical weeks lul
How much haste should I have before I start prioritizing crit a little more?
for single target
how much crit do you have with all those crit % corruptions
i dont have all those severes
i only have severe rank 2 x3 and severe rank 3x1
uhh sec
oh boy i wanna show you my cluster fuck of a build. im super unlucky with my rewards that drop from all m+ runs being cloaks or belts or shitty void rituals lol. gimme a sec to run sim
i am sitting at like 46% crit with certain gear on
i have a lot of options
my rogue has gotten a lot of gear over the patch from keys and pvp
i'd say drop 6% of that crit and swap to strike on severe corruptions
ive been raw dogged
well because you want to have 40% crit for m+ build right? like a soft cap, no real need to go over it? i'd say strike replacements until youre at soft cap, unless the class feels like shit and energy starved, then maybe stack some haste?
my stats rn are crit 36%, haste 25%, mast 33%, and vers 1%. i have some tweaking to do
with 25% haste i will say the class feels soooooo good to play. i have been wanting to do the expedient build even though im only an m+ player and not a raider, purely because i love the high haste feeling. i'd say stay under 40 corruption because eyes get to be huge and fuck thing from beyond
but thats my personal preference, im a casual boi
rly?
so until i can put it on a replacement, im just being weighed down by a blue 410
yeah omg it fucking dumpsters in dmg
i hated mine lol, 465 bracer has been sitting in my storage basically from the day i got it
its sooooo depressing when it doesnt proc at the right time
it actually ruins the game for me
@gusty kestrel what you mean
haha i know the feeling, but i treat it like bonus brrrr dmg and it teaches me good positioning
@gusty kestrel oh lmao, i was pvping and wanted to show my gearset so i swapped quickly
LUL the classic mfd + internal bleeding
its a rippper
@spark cloud i wish i had such a positive mindset lol



i feel like i should but i dont atm

is the entire point of the mailboxes in horrific visions to get the mail muncher mount? or does it give other stuff too?
how many haste% is enough haste for exsang build?
Just when it sims higher. For me it was about ~49-52%
Just have the right azerite and sim yourself
U need somewhere between 0 and 100
@gusty kestrel any % haste I need for this build
I feel like some people here literally answer just to be smartasses
not like this is an assa channel on the Rogue discord for assa questions lol
yeah just ignore those people, they’re just idiots
@gusty kestrel @arctic walrus

@scarlet sequoia I asked for help bro
that's absolutely not for you to decide. everyone is on a different skill level and comes here to learn. either provide some insight or ignore the question entirely. when you decide to be a smartass over an Assa question asked in an Assa Discord then that's pretty low and pathetic. I will leave it at that @gusty kestrel
It gets really tiring for people to try to answer the same questions over and over when the answers are usually pinned in guides
if you dont even bother reading guides you dont deserve to have your questions answered
we are not here to coach you
Honestly, often people have read the guides and checked the pins and just want clarification and almost always the answer is "check the pins".
i play with 31% crit!
33% here I am here to set an example!
At last! Didn't have any luck with plummage.
Wait, trophy cannot be used on it 
crying in 29% crit
trophy can only be used on corrupted "gladiator" gear
Yeah, just noticed it 
I mean “sim yourself" might sound like a shitty answer
but esp with stuff like exsang vs. tb, there's really no set breakpoint
i always like to refer to this example where i was at 50% haste but had a TTK+DD piece so sim never stopped telling me to go TB
later on i dropped to about 35% haste but got a third SS, and sim started telling me to go Exsang
it's really not only about how much haste we have right
It’s about when the magic raidbots tells you to use it
np + vop or just having 3 np lol
if it was actually pushing the np + vop build then I sure am glad that i was around for it
yeah who would ever play that
Using the haste build for raiding, what haste % is generally a good mark to drop lucid for void?
Okay, cheers
you don't have the bis azerite atm
A clockwork and blight would bring up over 1600dps with ct then
u need more haste for ct
gonna post this also to the outlaw channel for feedback:
quick question: i'm trying to push my rogue trough mythics and HC raid, and can't decide if i should focus on outlaw or assa.
here are the setups i have now, wich one do you recommend to invest in corruptions?
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sKZdVaFGVKdjY94DTM6Wb1
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/xeG7Hjx8Ztd4xgAMiKXWL5
seems like you lack items more than corruption
no need to post in 2 different channels the same question
@tropic ocean more than 78% base......
just do the one you like playing more, doesn't matter at this point in the game
Wouldn’t you want to play the one you enjoy more?
@glacial jasper it's your azerite not the corruption
@fallow breach any specific items i'm missing? or just in general higher gs?
better gear + azerite traits
i'm working on the azshara essence right now on my dh
i don't think investing corruption is worth it if you're gonna replace the gear in like 1/2 week
is there a list of go-to gear like "this shoulder from maut" etc
guys for the new build i take my highest ilvl piece hate mastery and put the rank3 expidient on it?
u take what sims higher @real blaze
okay @strange python thanks alot ❤️
Hey guys, what dagger mog will help me get the big dam
Hello friends, just wanted to find out what people thing i can improve on https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/iXd4ZvXCZXqaZiva4rNgSd
I know I can add more corruption, and done many other sims but this is the 'base' everyone compares to
like with different fight lengths etc, any feedback is welcome 😄
get cara mythic chest
get sockets
get better pants
replace gloves
@humble tiger cara mythic chest, raden mythic helm, gorak tuls shoulder
i don't really get into mythic with my gs with randoms
are the hc equivalents also good?
if you cant get mythic, yea
480 vendor helm might be better than heroic raden gotta sim it
but 475 cara will be gucci
nice thanks
something to aim for for now
wait are the azerite things you mentines best for assa or outlaw?
@humble tiger cara mythic chest, raden mythic helm, gorak tuls shoulder
@tropic ocean those
my sims say galecallers sim 1.5k higher then plumage is that a real thing and is it used the same way as plumage r how does that work?
Sims are also you standing afk blasting a boss, have to consider the fights
ye i get that moving ruins galecallers
I’m the same way in my sims with galecaller though, but I’m prog on nzoth and could never get a decent usage with galecallers so I get way more value off my other trinkets that sim close
thanks mate
should i trust this? 😅
Extravagant Epaulettes are simming higher then goraks for me
- type II simming 2k higher then heroic carapace chest
i kinda use them for aoe build with Echoing blades xD how good is the nromal ST build on m+ ?
guess i will give it a try
yeah, its worth to try, I did 110k overall on a WS last night with normal raid gear (21 key)
ye but workshop is very boss based x) i wonder overall in all dungeons how it fairs off
thats why I used normal raid build there 😛
It's ok in all dungeons, but not as good as the aoe build for overall dps
@lethal bobcat its kinda superior in the smaller dungeons
i left kr 20 with 102k or so overall
but yeah heavily favored in cleave dungeons
also... apperently i burst 320k with both clockwork heart azerites xD that thing kinda op
and if you time the Exsang with the clockwork procs the dmg really bumps up
you don't do that though
really?
uh... though you would... it gives me 10% vers 12%crit 22% haste and like 25% mastery
though with a boost in stats like that would be worth delaying it
its also a 12 sec window... which kinda lines up pretty well with the bleeds in exsang...
I am le dumb
we all are
😄
ye would actually love a response to that
To what I initially asked?
no to my question...
Just wait for koji to be available he is pretty good when it cones to apl logic and improvements
For m+ i have like 40% mastery and crit and like 3% vers youse reckon i should try and get more vers or its not that important
more crit
if u play echoing traits pump crit
Sweet so i shouldnt worry too much about my vers as long as i run up crit?
shouldnt worry too much about it
but yeah crit/mastery and crit/vers is good
crit/vers especially for echoing build
Sweet ill kep that in mine ty cuz
Hey guys, building up my rogue, mainly m+ and starting on +15s now. I'm also new to sim - https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/hGykmYFcu3dQpktKVdj2N8 If anyone has time to see my sim and recommend any changes with my current gear.. I have 3x R3 Expedient in my bags to use and currently working on getting my gems + mechagon rings.. I raid Heroic and will start pug first bosses on mythic - Thank you for any help
How do you sim m+ anyway?
It's always kazzak
But sin is really good for m+ 
hey guys, needa grab a pvp weapon, should I grab the stabber or shanker first?
one's crit/haste and the other is vers/mastery
would say depends on current stats... do you need more haste or more vers?
im undergeared only 433 ilevel I got 16% haste and 3% vers
so grab the vers one? haha
i think thats what i would do but if youre going to play alot those numbers willc hange fast
can ask in the pvp tab as well
alright thank you!
3x shroud or 2x EB?
ait ty
Working on my sin haste build. I'm simming 93k and did this on Xanesh. Any tips? I feel like the opener is pretty much spot on but after that all downhill
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/zFpTRaw8PJLk6vgQ/#fight=1&type=damage-done
you overwrote your empowered garrotes
after vanishing
literally vanish-garrote-garrote-rupture-garrote
second go around? Not the opener I hope
and thanks
I see it now
right after my vanish
durrr
and u dont want to gar > gar on ST
Don't I want the pandemic?
u want gar > finisher > gar
so before vanish u should mutilate > vanish > gar > finisher > gar
finisher being rupture or crimson tempest, etc.?
cool
Makes sense
Thanks
so as soon as my empowered garrote drops off, vanish gar>finisher>garrote
yes
I think I was overwriting my emp gar because my buttons are slow to swap after subterfuge drops
Cause Im actually trying to hit mut, but my gar is que'd up
like, I just need to wait a half a sec
or fix my buttons
oh u dont have stealth gar on the same keybind as non stealth gar?
(i'm working on my bidns...haha)
I use same binds for main abilities
Fan of Knives 2 or more enemies?
is there some standard stat priority for ST? like haste > ? > ? > ?
generally haste > crit >= mastery > vers your mileage my vary drastically
alright sim will work for that but ill keep a look out for haste/crit and haste/mastery gear then
yep can't go wrong with those
So looking at corruptions... strikethrough seems bad for its corruption cost, yet I see it suggested rather often if you are going for crit.
its 100 corruption for AT BEST 20% damage increase - assuming you are at a consistent 100% crit rate, which is unlikely for most people
good in m+ where you want to stack crit
if your only at a 75% crit rate, than its only 15% damage increase for that 100 corruption
Is that really any good?
well consider the other corruptions
did you do the math on those?
if you haven't...then you can't really say whether it's good or bad comparatively
have you guys noticed any changes in sims from 12 hours ago? I lost about 2.4k on patchwork
You sure you simmed the same stuff?
i cant see anything different, except the Ngtly build changing
looks like it ye
wierd, i do nightly/weekly and i only see a 20 dps difference
with 6000 Iterations on both, highly doubt that
all i need is 3 sockets, and a cara dagger and i should be done with the expac at 110k dps
i will consider that beating BFA
im not going to hope for a 475 plumage tho feelsbadman
I want a dice out of my cache now and a plumage would be cool
tfw you got a 475 plumage from your chest but it sims lower then coral
majority is rank2 and not everything is full with sockets, ofc you will sim lower then other people here
hmmm is there anything i can improve?
enchant your mh and try DD instead of np on your chest
you literally have 2 sockets ..
yeah cause im jumping between outlaw assa
dumb ass question sorry but is force multiplier based on stat % or highest amount ?
im socketed on outlaw cause i play ton of m+
o really ?
force is poopoo kaka
yeah and you sim 97k with a bad helm, missing 7 sockets, no cara chest
not going to get alot higher
what should i use instead quick/deadly ?
yeah next week got another raden and cara kill hopefully i can get it
ah ok i see thank you 🙂
np
em idk if its worth it
i need to practice the 3 ss build so not gonna change it
just gonna farm raden cara
lol
wdym it's the same playstyle
theres no real difference in the 3 ss build though
1ss v 3ss is the same playstyle
DD is still great for high haste build
"hey guys how can I improve my sim" "yeah not gonna play that"
1.5k dps on exact same rotation


stop reforging
get some more azerite homeboy
i mean thats fine, just know that the build shown will do better when you can reforge
wtf
what are you even reforging so much
to swap to outlaw every key prolly
alliance raiding in a nutshell
dont come asking for advice next time if youre just gonna ignore it, save everyone the time
xd
nah
so he swaps
pvp azerite should be a different set tho
yeah but i wasnt raiding that much, got 11/12 but not much kills
now im able to raid more so looking forward for some loot xd
yeah that's fair then you're gucci just stick to it til you get better pieces
i guess
I think ausrr mentioned this before but replacing HM3 with RP3 then replace vita with 475 dice (if you have one) sims better INCASE anyone's fencing about buying HM3
can someone sim me
eventually corruption res will mean you are wasting budget if you do 9x expedient
with 475 vita, carapace chest, gibbering maw?
and then once again but full haste socketed
cause my internet and non-premium raidbots are making fun of me
my eventual second cara dagger will remain uncorrupted until the time comes i can smack that HM3 on it
sim yourself
for the sake of being a haste gremlin i wish gorak tuls didnt sim 400 dps better than a third HoD T.T
btw is it better to run 485 boots?
yes
most do yeah
got em but not expediented them yet
finaly got haste proc ring, still need the attack from behind one but any other ideas on what i should work on
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/48rcrCQMycmYXPhNpqDgAs
at least one 485 dagger does alot for people
try to grab one of those if your guild raids
we do, started liek 3 weeks ago getting stuck 3/12
Cries in 470 dagger
check to see if CT is better for you, if youre trying to do the haste build that will probably sim better at some point
"just get a 485 dagger lmao" is the best take people here do ngl
hey i said try!
i know not everyone mythic raids haha
and its one of the biggest boosts people can get normally
I can barely do LFR
sigh - Kimbul is higher again
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/bUsZu5Rk5nkdodpgf54ix7
jesus christ hahahaha
Hey gang, anyone have a good ElvUI for mut? Just installed it and don't really know where I'm supposed to look
simmed to make sure kimbuls didnt beat my plumage thank god it didnt work
hahaa
At last! Didn't have any luck with plummage.
Got it!
ye kimbuls outsims that for me 😦
this is also quite interesting https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/vCBpDYSJMVsoA8hQoPKJkp
ye, but my law is 132k
i mean look at my top sim for law vs that - obv i can get law up with breath etc - But I use this
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/sAA2S5mWkVq2Lu2WsxwbwQ
yeah outlaw isnt brought to keys for its dmg
everyone plays outlaw for gouge/vanish etc.
outlaw isn't reliant on vanish/stealth
and has gouge
between the eyes is kidney but better
oh ye - just wasnt expecing Exp gear to sim that high, sims higher than my 3 eb - 3 ss - Strike - Severe Build

https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/fvtwyyn9MX98iAyFCViAHP Condensed lifeforce simming higher than blood of the enemy, but is it actually better? Is it better only if i can have full uptime on it's duration otherwise blood outperforms anyone knows?
sims dont lie
also depends on the kill time for your group
"uptime" is a very broad and nebulous factor so you'll need to define it better
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/dhEZ2EuXtPDTZSbgHB8iRW this is my build now, what would you guys say that needs improvement apart from carapace dagger / chest + sockets?
@slender badger mizerok kit had one for poisons.
Did you fully delete the wtf folder?
...NAH
why do you have detaisl covering a quarter of your screen
What's a good stat priority for Assassination single target?
What's a good talent setup for M+ or is it "lolOutlaw"?
So i had a question earlier today... about delaying exsang so it goes in the Clockwork heart azerite but no one answered or they didnt know how to answer... is there anyone that can tell me if its good or not to delay it?
its this azerite if you are wondering
I dont think you'll gain that much + it means you'll do 1 less exsang before your next vanish vendetta
Im at 38 corruption with pure expedient, finally got the two mechagon rings but one of them has a 35corruption racing pulse. So either I use the racing pulse and cleanse one of my expedients or I cleanse the racing pulse. Thoughts?
Sim it but if ur haste isnt that high in general than i think expedient?
do u need to play exang build in m+
No
I think alot of people do the exang build in st/raids and ss and eb high crit build for m+
But it can change, like for big mobs ss+eb id heaps good, for more boss focused dungeons u can probably try and add more st type dmg
I think the Haste build is quite fun in M+
It's quite different from the Crit build and both are pretty playable
Just make sure you communicate with your tank to give you brief restealth opportunities (which honestly is very small if you are on top of it) rather than pure chain pulling if you go with any SS setup
coming back to sin, what are the corruptions we want? just expedient?
check out ravenholdt, its got guides for whatever build is best for you
its been current for awhile
@slender badger yeah. I pull his in and just rip out the stuff I don't want. Get good at editing them and you can mush them around.
"Last updated: Friday, 14th January 2020 – Old gods await" not really updated
the raz guide was just updated <1 week ago????
a dozen+ shadowlands articles too kekW
the raz guide is like specificaly made for exsanguinate
And he himself made it clear that it is only truly optimal to go that route once you get enough room to stack at least 8 expedients
was better for me even with like 2-3
"IMPORTANT: This build requires a significant amount of gear to be optimal. "
Yeah i overextended myself when i said that it was expedient that was necessary
I just remembered that he mentionned 8 slot of expedient aswell as good amount of gear
But point is it's only for ex, and he himself said it needs a lot of gear
You can't find any proper mentions of toxic blade, master assassin, or any other path in single target
so whatever build is best for you kekW
i may be over thinking this, but if i play crimson tempest...it's only my finish for multi targets right? other than just, keep use it to keep the dot up then use envenom?
with deeper stratagem, if you land on 5 combo points, do you use a finisher at 5 combo points, use mutilate and waste a CP or use garrote? (can't always garrote since you wouldn't want to overwrite an empowered one)
it was something like 5+ targets CT finisher takes priority over envenom (don't quote me tho) but yes other situations treat it as another bleed to maintain then fill with envenom
5cp finish garrote if it's within pandemic to reach 6 don't waste CPs by mut again

hey, very new to assassination, been watching guides and they all say stacking shrouded suf is good with the haste build but i've been simming myself with the azerite pieces i have and chosen traits seem very random
can somebody help me out
here is my sim
i probably just need a clarification/confirmation
it just feels awkward to not have anything rly stacked on purpose
stackings traits doesn't make them exponentially better, but stop simming weird bote vop minor shit
you dont have the azerite for bleed build
or well your non ss one is way better

how many days a week do you raid
once
just reforge then
i guess so
but yea i'm jsut projecting myself til next exp3 rotation
currently have my outlaw gear setup for assa and its not going well, so i just wondered if i could do anything better for azerite traits
realistically if the limits of what you have access to are residuum gear and heroic raid pieces it's probably unlikely shrouded will make it into your build
its better with higher ilvl then?
it's not just ilvl, like double dose is good with haste too
more stab = more proc
shrouded pieces with non-ass second traits are just very limited
like raden helm is basically the only functional helm
and there's only 1 non-raid chest that's playable
ye i see
ahh rly gotta get going with mythic raiding
also starting to get stuck for outlaw
but yeah i should probably just reforge for the only run i do per week
with the DD build sim
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/6XA1Nm38Ks5hfctMLTcyyA you can do this if you want slightly under the DD build
don't think I touched your outlaw gear
you were using like progression level talents back in the days
fuk ur right i forgot the haste enchant on rings
vigor with ma and pb
then I saw you kinda have some gear to make it work
and I saw the dice
ez choice
oh, yeah i just chose vigor because jesus christ i'm just so starved with outlaw gear crit/vers with 0 haste
yess
gotta start playing the exsang thing
should be the same as toxic blade no?
man i feel so lost with my outlaw brain haha but assa is rly fun
ok i got what i need to do now, thank u so much guys
the latest pin is the exang guide if you're not familiar with it but have fun! welcome to the bleed club
i'm starting to push some 20s keystones
should i race change blood elf?
i'm an undead right now
Do you guys usually run 2 full sets? One for mythic one for raids? I am doing great in raids but our group is struggling to push up to a mythic 15 😦 i am wondering if it is cause my gear is optimized for raids
I run 3 sets. a m+ set, a raid set, and a tendies set for memes
raid set for me is triple shroud and triple heart of darkness. For M+ i run triple shrouded and double echoing blades
shrouded and echoing blades is straight up nasty in m+ depending on the dungeon.
only reason im not running triple shroud and triple echoing blades is because my rng is god awful
what talents are you taking for the M+ load out with 3 SS and 2 EB?
Any idea when Expedient III is coming around again? I read some spreadsheet that said Sep8, but im hoping thats wrong.
Ty
Sep8 is a correct week aswell - but next will be Jul 14
gibbering maw helm gold tasseled epaulets shoulders and type 2 bomber jacket chest
extravagant epaulettes are also good
and the helm i would take at 480 is the cowl of fluid machinations
pistoleer's spaulders are also good as shoulders
and rainment of the blighted tribe for chest is ok
unrelated but proud of myself
Hey, im mostly doing m+ so am i better off buying TW2 this week or just fill the rest with expedient 2
You should be buying strikethrough and strikethrough if you want to play sin in m+, TD is not that good for the spec compared to those 2
and haste is bad
Do u typically want more strikethrough or severe for m+
Is there a point where ur crit chance is high enough that u should just focus on stacking strikethrough
Yeah i wanna know that too, im at %23 crit right now. Also another question, i am using Focusing Iris as major, is BOE (2) is good for minor or should i swap with breath of the dying?
Hey, im mostly doing m+ so am i better off buying TW2 this week or just fill the rest with expedient 2
https://raider.io/characters/eu/sylvanas/Kentusa
@terse plaza This is for 10/15 m+ bracket, im not going higher
@terse plaza what's "TW2"? You meant TD(twilight devastation)?
TD Is awesome, but high RNG. I haven't got lucky with my drops, but got plenty of TD and it's fine. For the +15 bracket it's more than enough. Though if I had unlimited Echoes I'd go for severe/strikethrough. (saving for PvP gear - gw all the way!)
About essences - check out the guide. BOTE is awesome, Focusing Iris is also good. Didn't see anyone using botd.
I already have TW3 and if i want to i can afford 2 Strikethroughes and 1-2 severes, dont wanna drop my tw3 so it would be a weird mix i think? i like my rng and wanna go tw3-2.
I couldnt bringmyself to farm boe rank 3 and focusing iris is so fun to use so ill stick with that, but a s a minor i swapped boe with purif. protocol 🙂
Don't drop TD if you don't have to(you have probably higher corruption resistance). I'd go still for severe/strikethrough if you are... more serious. Though as I said, TD works more than enough for the +15 bracket. If you want it - go for it.
If you don't want to farm bote, then don't. Just get other minor(botd, mold, c&s are nice) for your major iris.
Okay thank you ^^
Well blood Major is by far the best for this spec and it’s not comparable at all to iris, but only rank 3
You can run breath at any rank it’s better than blood minor
And you want around 40% Crit with severe then you can go with strike through
At present I've ended up with a golden plumage and font trinkets. It's likrly ill end up with a wrathion mythic trinket Wednesday but I just wanted to quickly ask at what point I should be channeling font before fights with that set up? I only can really find info re. Font with coral
Same thing anyway just do it at like 6s and restealth
do you not have any other trinket
You would precast font as usual
On opener you probably do font at 15 or something like the fire mages
And then from there it would follow the same rules
@steep plover it was a 16 temple
yo guys
how is sin right now for high keys
really want to play sin, cause its more fun than outlaw for me, but I heard that sin lacks a lot of in mythic+ because of aoe
checked the raider io and saw the top 10 were outlaw
any ideas?
ss+eb whats that
Azerite traits
Shrouded suffocation empowers ur garrotes to do a fuckton more damage out if stealth
U use it with the subterfuge talent so u can for example apply empowered garrotes to 3 different enemies in 1 window which os some good cleave dmg
Echoing blades basically makes ur fan of knives crazy itll do more dmg + proc more fans if it crits
So the build works well with high ceit
Crit*
thx man
All goodski
How much haste do you aim for with the SS+EB mythic+ build?
I understand it isn't prioritized but didn't know if we wanted a minimal amount (10-15% for example) for boss fights
Around 10% should be ok
guys i have a question
i have 3 rank 3 expidients
on which item shall i put them on?
Delete them
sim it
Nah u want to put them on something that has good stats for ur build and thatll be in ur buikd for a long time
So bis items etc
but most likely 475 items with haste + mastery/crit
Mech rings is probably the safest bet if u have them
or mech rings ye
i have 465 mech ring
Which one
Rip
U want the overclocking bit band and logic loop of division ideally
Haste buff
nope
then yes
need to sim
but if thats the best gear u can access
probably
with max cloak all ur items will be corurpted so
in the end all slots will have a corruption on them for sin rogue
last one will either be honed mind or racing pulse when u finishd ur cloak
Sin Rouge bis stats are from the raid right
nope
u want combinations of haste/mastery haste/crit
feet/belt/gloves/wrists are good from raid
pants m+
rings m+
i can get feet from muat mythic aand wrist from skitra
yeah they are good
cara boots are used because they are 485 ilvl
u can just hope to get 475 crit haste or haste mastery from weekly cache for boots
well then thanks alot ❤️
does stat weight sims take expedients into account?
BoE boots work well too
i'm doing my part
