If you do all that, there are times you wait.

umbral rapids
#

Opener / vanish make the spec a lot harder than outlaw haha

lone junco
#

But if you just mash mut env you may have windows of dropped ruptuee.

#

Nah.

#

That SS exang is like a script.

umbral rapids
#

idk I have an easy time as outlaw but i played it a ton

#

Yeah i need to get used to that

lone junco
#

But you can almost afk between the vendetta's. And still do good work.

umbral rapids
#

It’s pretty fun so far i’ll keep practicing sin

#

You stack crit/haste gear and mechagon haste rings ?

#

Or is crit not necessary?

lone junco
#

Find a good mythic log. Snip the opener and put that on your second monitor.

balmy condor
#

Crit is good to have

#

But it’s the haste that makes this all work

lone junco
#

Shad has a st Exang by "Prime" that was really smooth. It's about 12 sec long.

umbral rapids
#

Yeah I figured haste was good, was wondering what other stat to get

balmy condor
#

Crit and mast usually

strange python
#

haste >crit/mast

umbral rapids
#

Though I have dozens of pieces in my bags I should have everything lol

lone junco
#

Good. Cause in keys it is crit stack.

#

Since we are having class.

#

Sin in keys is great.

#

3 garrotes. On 3 separate elites is really strong.

umbral rapids
#

I tried a jy 18

lone junco
#

Then it rolls into Fok spam. With high crit.

umbral rapids
#

It felt so weird to not have gouge

#

It’s not bad at all though

lone junco
#

The bene is having 300k dps cleave without having to commit a single cooldown.

#

And the sustain is forever.

#

Just tab out enough rupture to keep energy rolling.

#

And don't bother garroting outside of the opener or vanish.

umbral rapids
#

It’s a very fun spec though I’ll take advantage of non push weeks to learn it

lone junco
#

I less st

umbral rapids
#

Oh really ?

#

I garroted a lot

#

Always refreshing in pandemic

#

Or almost always at least

lone junco
#

The SS garrotes tick for like 80k. The base ones are like 6 k

umbral rapids
#

But that was the goal

#

Hm

lone junco
#

In cleave you can sustain ruptures for bleed after the opener.

#

In lower mob counts the garrotes are just energy.

#

Like st. Really important.

umbral rapids
#

Alright thanks a lot noobe :)

#

That helps

lone junco
#

But in a 6 pack. I g g g. CT or env. Then might vanish g g g the other 3

#

Depends on when you need the vanish.

#

But after that. Garrotes are duds. Let them drop and just maintain the ruptures for e

balmy condor
#

Yeah, non empowered garrotes are trash

#

Hit like noodles

lone junco
#

None of this is in the guide. But it is all in the guide.

#

So the what to do is all there. Just written for people that know what it means.

#

Ok that was 30mins. Back to work.

#

Will take gold as payment. NA -Thrall.

#

Jk. But not really. I'm a poory

balmy condor
#

I’ll take over bb I gotchu

umbral rapids
#

Thanks mate

crimson palm
#

are thought harvesters immune

#

before they start casting?

balmy condor
#

Don’t think so

crimson palm
#

They just fucking immuned my garrotes pepehands

balmy condor
#

Wouldn’t surprise me if they were still bugged somehow

#

But as far as I know, there’s no immunity on them

#

Maybe like right as they spawn

crimson palm
#

It's probably the silence that shows as immune kekw

#

what's up manor, I'm getting decent parses on single target bosses but my parses on hectic add cleave are hot garbage. Wowanalyzer has me doing relatively okay, but I'm not sure that there isn't more I could be doing on hivemind or vex. Maybe these are just fights where I should be using Echoing blades?

balmy condor
#

if you want to parse on aoe you'll have to aoe

#

or have crazy killtimes

#

and pump single target

#

there's hivemind logs floating around with like 2 drone phases I think

drifting cloud
#

well for vex 1 phasing helps

balmy condor
#

kinda nuts

#

yeah

drifting cloud
#

but you dont have to eb at all there

#

just a little ct pad

#

did 122k with full st build 3h ago

balmy condor
#

hivemind if you're quick I think you can get away with it too

iron glacier
#

oh ct is something I didn't think about

balmy condor
#

but if you got slow kill times

iron glacier
#

way better than poison bomb

balmy condor
#

CT is also better single target if you have enough haste

#

not sure if this is mythic or heroic or what the gear is

thick jasper
#

howcome when I sim my rogue it tells me to stack crit vers?

balmy condor
#

because you're simming stat weights

thick jasper
#

i guess im just confused

iron glacier
#

Heroic, 475 ilvl, not too much base haste but about 100 corruption worth of expedient. I'm at 45% haste with just food buff

balmy condor
#

and those give worthless information

#

that doesn't help you whatsoever

#

yah 45% is probably a little too low for CT to win ST

#

usually around 55% unbuffed you start to see it creep in

#

somewhere around there

thick jasper
#

so i shouldnt be simming weights? i was doing it for pawn cause im new and im getting overwhelmed gearing myself

#

im 439 ilvl

balmy condor
#

yeah pawn is awful and stat weights are worthless

#

just top gear sim everything

thick jasper
#

thats great to know

#

actually

#

ive been trying to use pawn so hard lol

iron glacier
#

Ilvl is probably your most important stat until 465 or 470 ilvl

thick jasper
#

so i should just say fuck pawn and stack haste vers? or something

#

if i wanna do good pvp and pve

#

oh true

iron glacier
#

then you can decide whether to stack haste or crit depending on your build

balmy condor
#

crit for m+ haste for raid

thick jasper
#

but vers no matter what or

iron glacier
#

crit and vers for pvp

thick jasper
#

true

#

thanks

#

deleting pawn

iron glacier
#

got my first one of these on heroic xanesh last night and I've been giddy about it ever since

balmy condor
#

wowanalyzer

#

eh

drifting cloud
#

I thought it wasnt updated

balmy condor
#

its like good 'at a glance' type stuff

iron glacier
#

oh i see

balmy condor
#

but yeah

#

not updated

#

and kinda not great

iron glacier
#

I know one thing that's awkward about it is that it likes to yell at me when I save my cooldowns to line them up in vendetta

#

which is weird because I thought we were supposed to use our vendetta windows

balmy condor
#

that seems legit

#

stackings cds is usually good ideas

drifting cloud
#

unless you mean tb

#

delaying tb is bad

balmy condor
#

yeah

iron glacier
#

mostly vanish and blood of the enemy

balmy condor
#

but tb

#

yucky

iron glacier
#

tb on cooldown

drifting cloud
#

yeah youre fine then

#

like we said, just wow analyzer being outdated most likely

balmy condor
#

yeah

vital haven
#

dude wow analyzer is constantly telling to use arcane torrent more lmao

#

and im just like i cant

#

waste of a gcd

drifting cloud
#

just get more haste for even lower gcd ... oh wait ppSmile

static acorn
#

Is there anything I should know before swapping from a 475 shrouded suffocation/heart of darkness/elemental whirl to a 480 piece that replaces heart of darkness w/ clockwork heart? The swap sims about 700 dps higher, potentially just because of the ilvl increase, but idk if clockwork heart will be "hard to use" to its sim potential in practice with how cds line up or some shit idk

balmy condor
#

nop

#

heart and clockwork are passives you can't control

#

there's been some talk about delaying openers for clockwork to proc

#

but you don't change anything as of now

worldly condor
#

What food buff is recommended with the exsang haste build? or just pick food based on your stat weights?

balmy condor
#

haste food

#

baked port tato or whatever

worldly condor
#

Thank you!

balmy condor
#

np

strange python
#

So I shouldn’t have a ton of mastery rn

static acorn
#

Yeah its like the theorycrafter in me is like, you'd want the 1 min clockwork cycle to line up with cds, but when exsang is 45s, vendetta/vanish/plumage are 2min, blood is 1.5min but gets delayed to sync with 2min, its just a nightmare to sync up theoretically

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

its not strong enough for that

#

ruining the current cd lineups is just not worth it

static acorn
#

and Matcha afaik haste > mastery >= crit > vers

balmy condor
#

yeah kinda

static acorn
#

haste should be top but mastery has always been a close second for me

balmy condor
#

mastery/crit is kinda whatevre

#

stat weights and priorities like that are mega bait

static acorn
#

it ends up being ahead of crit but it doesn't help I have some pieces w/ crit gems and rings w/ crit enchants because I share them with outlaw

balmy condor
#

cause its different for literally every single person

#

that's why we always tell people to top gear sim

strange python
#

My friend payed for my rogue to come back to horde so her gear is kinda vked rn

balmy condor
#

and often don't talk about stat priorities

#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

balmy condor
#

for example

#

that exists for a reason

static acorn
#

Yeah its like in practice stat weights dont mean much across different toons but like, theoretical bis bis bis gear will technically have a certain stat priority

#

but at any given moment yours will change

balmy condor
#

I'd argue stat weights don't mean much of anything to even one toon

#

simming stat weights is an actual waste of time

strange python
#

So ilvl haste then mastery

balmy condor
#

haste

#

and crit/mast as the second stat

#

vers won't kill you

#

but really

#

this is so generalized and watered down

#

simulate yourself

#

and you'll be fine

static acorn
#

eh, its like I never just replace a piece blindly because stat weights said so, but I don't think I ever find myself getting a piece that has been an upgrade by my stat weights but wasn't an upgrade when I simmed top gear outside of like, if it was a negligible upgrade by both but one had leech or something

strange python
#

Ah I see. I have

#

Ty guys

static acorn
#

now this is just a question regarding the exsang build, tempest sims about 1-1.1k behind for me, do you think its worth me swapping to it just to practice running it for when I eventually get a couple more expedients and it theoretically becomes better than poison bomb?

#

I've wanted to run crimson tempest since it became a talent but this is the closest its come to being on par with my top loadout

balmy condor
#

do you have irontide as a helm?

static acorn
#

nada

balmy condor
#

aha

static acorn
#

im gonna be rolling for azerite helm

balmy condor
#

yeah more haste needed

static acorn
#

since i had enough residuum but didnt knwo where to target it

balmy condor
#

I don't think its earth-shattering

#

like

#

you run CT

#

you just hit the button like you would rupture

#

maintain and forget

#

its really not that bad

static acorn
#

Yeah like I don't think it'll be hard to pick up, I just like the idea of maintaining all 3 dots

#

sad

balmy condor
#

on like hive/vex you should probably just run CT because its better though

#

XD

static acorn
#

I wish my guild could get to M vex. We're fuckin 5/12 but can't even reclear hive or shad consistently (I also just play outlaw for hive cuz I get to press blade flurry, turn brain off, and race my bm hunter buddy for top dps

#

we have >200 wipes on fuckin xanesh because we can't piece together 9 competent soccer players and half our interrupters are inept

#

fuckin quad 6s

balmy condor
#

oof sub 90

#

feels bad

static acorn
#

Yeah, my rogue has been my side char to gear

#

I main brewmaster for the guild rn cuz we didnt have any other competent tanks

#

and when gearing rogue it was mostly for M+ so outlaw was where my gear went

#

sin I have 4x exp 3, 1x honed mind 1, and 1x mind flay 3

#

cuz i had to split the echoes i had between strikethrough/severe for outlaw, and expedient for sin

balmy condor
#

yeah that's a yucky

static acorn
#

hell for the longest time i ran void ritual 3 w/ mind flay 2 or something jank

#

i ran negative corruption on both specs cuz i didnt roll into anything good

#

and i didnt have the echoes to buy expeident, severe, or strikethrough before they went away in the early rotations

#

also have yet to get a carapace dagger, have a 465 mast/crit dagger and a 465 haste/crit. Only have like 2 sockets on sin gear too

#

outlaw's running fuckin 475 wrathion sword which is disgusting, off hand is a 435 folly cuz i have yet to get a mythic one to drop since that was current content and I can't get a clapper off raden for my life

#

the grind never ends

#

i've considered putting my rogue up for recruitment just to see if a guild would let me trial and i could snag some raden gear

#

not that im not necessarily considering trialing anyway

#

i digress tho, just in a ranty mood

#

Thanks so much for the help tho

#

really appreciate it

balmy condor
#

np

ruby ibex
short quarry
#

What corruptions should I use for M+?

fleet whale
#

Severe is a safe bet

balmy condor
#

severe6 and then strikethrough

#

@ruby ibex you'll probably need to get some more corrupts for it

#

but im not sure

#

undergeared sims are kinda janky

short quarry
#

Alright thanks 🙂

humble valley
#

Blood of the Enemy before or after Vendetta? After, right?

plain thistle
#

after exsanguinate

#

usually

humble valley
#

I don't have enough Exped3s to run Exsang yet

#

Still running Tox Blade

steep plover
#

Usually vendetta into toxic in blood of the enemy

#

Then slam envenoms

balmy condor
#

yeah

humble valley
#

Okay that makes sense. Thank you

quiet finch
#

ye

#

oops mt

humble valley
#

I'm assuming I want to hold Blood for vendetta

balmy condor
#

yes

winged basin
#

I feel like this is just a dumb question, but when level of haste does exsang become good? I feel like my sims are low for TB and Exsang and I am not sure what I am doing wrong .

#

I don't really have logs either sorry for being so unhelpful

balmy condor
#

exsang starts to pull ahead for people around the 40ish% mark

winged basin
#

buffed or unbuffed

balmy condor
#

depends heavily on SS azerite and such

#

unbufffed

#

some people see it at like 35% if they have poppin azerite and stuff

#

CT will pull ahead at ~60%

#

again, grain of salt, depends on person

winged basin
#

and how do I get used to playing DS over Vigor lol

#

am I losing out not playing DS?

balmy condor
#

It plays the exact same you just finish at 5 instead of 4

winged basin
#

Maybe its my haste, I always just feel like I have soooo much downtime

arctic walrus
#

well do you have enough haste for it to start simming better

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

It’s not just straight better

#

It becomes better

winged basin
#

I have 33% haste

balmy condor
#

Yeah you’ll get there

#

Needs more exped

winged basin
#

at 463 unequipped no raden trink

#

I was drooling over the rogue I saw in a pug today doing like BIG DICK dmg

balmy condor
#

Hitting those 250k openers

#

Making the fire mages sweat

#

Feels great

winged basin
#

She was making every sweat, it was me and her top 2 dps on H skitra, she ended at like 80k and I was like 53k

#

I was like 😛

arctic walrus
#

well you know that's how skitra goes right

winged basin
#

I havent gotten to do much raiding this tier due to work situation

balmy condor
#

Is that still bugged

#

Ridiculous

winged basin
#

couldnt tell ya haha

balmy condor
#

Skitra has this weird thing where damage doesn’t update from people on the opposite color

#

I thought they fixed it tho

simple junco
#

Hi guys. just came back to WoW and want to raid again on my Rogue to push higher keys. Focus is clearly getting mythic slappers for outlaw, but bc outlaw sucks in single target fights i feel pressured to go assa in raid.
Since i really hate playing the poison build i loved to hear that the Exsang build is now viable (on high haste levels). Which haste levels are we talking about? I currently have 1,5k haste and 2k crit (optimized gear towards outlaw for m+ pushing so still lagging Haste/crit haste/mastery gear) with only one Exp III and mechagon rings + no vita (myth wrathion trinket doe) and harlans.
how high do i have to go for raiding on haste rating? Thanks in advance!

balmy condor
#

Exsang usually gets better at around 35-40%

#

It varies from character to character

#

If you don’t have SS azerite for example, it’s gonna be tough

simple junco
#

I got BIS azerite doe

rose lark
#

Hey everyone! I’m looking for a new class to main.. kinda doubting between Dk/dh/rogue .. how is rogue? For solo PvE play? Mytic+ dungeons, and wq? And mayb solo old raids etc.. ?

balmy condor
#

Then you should see it ahead at around 35%

#

Rogue has always been good

simple junco
#

If you are looking for a solo exp @rose lark you wanna go with Rogue/DH if you dont wanna tank. You can easily get into keys as rogue, DH got a lot of competition tho. But on a rogue your Job in higher keys is not strickly DPS! Just remember. you are the utility bitch, if you dont like this go with DH

balmy condor
#

It’s not the fastest or whatever, that’s dh

#

But yeah, utility gods

#

We’re usually always viable in content

simple junco
#

Then you should see it ahead at around 35%
@balmy condor so i can qoute you on that? even without expidiant?

balmy condor
#

I mean, please don’t

simple junco
#

and buffed or unbuffed?

balmy condor
#

But around there

#

Unbuffed

simple junco
#

fuck, then i need to wait for expidiant 😄 thanks dude!

balmy condor
#

Np

#

You can sim it

#

And see how many you need until it beats it

#

Just keep cranking the containers higher till it gives in

rose lark
#

Utility bitch as in? Cloak and stun? Or is there more?

balmy condor
#

Vanish kidney cloak shroud

#

Outlaw has gouge, we have good mobility, tricks

#

Sin has silence with iron wire

#

Immunity soaking

simple junco
#

Just keep cranking the containers higher till it gives in
@balmy condor just doing it right now 🙂

balmy condor
#

Feint is still super strong defensive

#

Sub can chain stun with cheap shots technically

#

Blind, sap

#

Distract

rose lark
#

Interested in assa or outlaw.. and prob not higher then +15

balmy condor
#

Either will work fine

simple junco
#

Utility bitch as in? Cloak and stun? Or is there more?
@rose lark as i was starting doing 20+ keys with shit gear i was still viable, bc you can just live through basically everything with faint cloak evasion/outlaw thingy, as outlaw you basically can perma stun one target, got 2 hard cc´s in sap and blind, can vanish out of combat, can go on solo activate pillars to speed up the route, got shroud for skips, can solo events like FH, you can snap pull for the tank (AD e.g)

#

and you got a very good short cooldown in gauge as outlaw

balmy condor
#

Ye

#

What he said

simple junco
#

but if you wanna go just 15 you really dont need it all, but its helpful 🙂 i did 20s w/o any corruptions and did fine due to outlaws control in keys 🙂

balmy condor
#

M+ is like 75% mechanics 25% damage tbh

#

If you got clean pulls and solid cc locks

#

It’s a ton easier

rose lark
#

Which is more fun in ur guys opinion, assa or outlaw ? And why?

balmy condor
#

Well, you’re in the sin channel

#

So I’m gonna say sin

#

Cause I hate outlaw :)

static acorn
#

Outlaw for big AoE, sin for single target and strong multidot fights

#

Is how I do things

balmy condor
#

Roll the bones is too janky for me

static acorn
#

It fuels my gambling addiction that I totally don’t have

balmy condor
#

Sin can do solid aoe too

#

You just need to gear for it

static acorn
#

I miss when it was true 6 random dice rolls and you could get 6 buff

balmy condor
#

Sin is reliant on multiple gear sets to do well

static acorn
#

It was a totally unbalanceable spec because of how wildly variable their dps were

lost horizon
#

That's the problem, EB gimps your ST

static acorn
#

But was so fun to gamble

balmy condor
#

Yeah

jagged axle
#

based on crimson tempest? 👀

ruby ibex
#

I dob't really understand sin AOE lol

balmy condor
#

Can’t wait for EB to go away

#

Sin aoe is CT and EB

rose lark
#

Last question, for now- how do rogues look in sl?

balmy condor
#

CT does a decent chunk

#

But it’s a lot of eb sadly

static acorn
#

Anyway back to typing my actual question before giving spec opinions

balmy condor
#

Rogues are fine in SL

#

Balance hasn’t been done yet

#

But we didn’t get ridiculous reworks or anything

#

Seems to be similar to what we have now

static acorn
#

I just realized, I’m sitting at 25 corruption rn (4x exp 3, 1x mind flay 2, 1x honed mind 1) so next week, short of a lucky usable chest or vision piece, I won’t be able to trigger heart of darkness. Should I snag an expedient 1 before it rotates out with the midweek reset just to be safe? It’ll keep me in HoD range till expedient 3 comes around. Only other options I have seem to be getting racing pulse 1 or masterful 3 in the second half of the week, or honed mind 2 available right after reset.

balmy condor
#

I think exped 1 is cheap enough to just grab

lost horizon
#

Triple DPS classes are one of the safest bets, there's usually at least one that's viable

balmy condor
#

You have more than enough time to farm up for exped 3

lost horizon
#

@static acorn you wanna pick up an exp1 and exp2 to account for resist anyways

#

For offpieces ideally

balmy condor
#

Yeah

static acorn
#

Yeah it’s like, I’m grabbing at least one more severe 3 for outlaw, I can get the 8k echoes to get both before reset but it was like, if id be better off getting a honed mind 2 or something for the long term (I keep seeing that as the recommended stat proc for sin, not racing pulse, meant to ask why that is) then I’d just do that, not need to run as many of my visions now, yada yada

balmy condor
#

The guide is a little outdated

#

Racing pulse is the way to go I’m pretty sure

static acorn
#

It’s like I both see it in guides as recommendations but also ppl getting high parses with it and no RP

#

So I’m like

balmy condor
#

Yeah

static acorn
#

Is it a case of it’s just what people who are good enough to top parse happened to run

balmy condor
#

RP/HM is the last thing

static acorn
#

Or is it actually the right choice

#

Like all outlaw rogues running blood over iris, where iris is better but ppl just like blood

#

Well that’s technically a debate of effective damage, dmg distribution, blahblah

lost horizon
#

Don't get r2 of stat proc

#

The value is rank3, in that it has 15 more corruption on a single piece

#

And it's only really valid for cloak cap afaik

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

It’s literally the very very last thing you put on

lost horizon
#

Doesn't it put you at like, flat 60 though? That's kind of annoying af

#

Like with cloak cap

balmy condor
#

I’m actually not sure

lost horizon
#

All 20s with 2xlash is 55 at cap

balmy condor
#

I was thinking it’s like 56 or some weird ass number like that

lost horizon
#

So less 10 off the lashes

static acorn
#

Cloak cap is 135 resist

#

With 10 from essence

lost horizon
#

Puts you to 45

#

Add in 15 extra from honed mind or whatever

#

60 flat

simple junco
#

just dont apply the resitance yet i would say tbh

#

you actually dont have to use it immidatly

static acorn
#

I mean eriu id wanna use it for outlaw for keys, since my outlaw is 42, it’ll put me at 39 there, throw my severe on and I’m at 59

simple junco
#

yeah okay

#

then grab that exp

#

if you play active you can recover the echos 🙂

balmy condor
#

^

static acorn
#

my options are basically expedient 1, honed mind 2, or swap heart of darkness to double dose for the week then swap back when exp 3 is back up

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

You can sim that

#

And see if to you, that’s worth the echoes

#

I would personally buy an exped1

#

And call it a day

sullen pagoda
#

just buy any stand in corruption like it matters

balmy condor
#

Exactly

simple junco
#

i would go for exp 1 aswell, DD will scuff your dps a bit and the exp will give you somewhat of a boost - if you can live w/o optimal dps (heroic raiding only) just save the echos and swap to DD

static acorn
#

Exp1 puts me at 29 when exp3 comes up, drop the honed mind 1 for exp 3, puts me 34, put another thats 54. Or get rid of mind flay and somehow budget 3x exp 3 and that’s 54

balmy condor
#

And that’s fine

#

But we can’t make that decision for you

static acorn
#

Think that maths out fine enough

balmy condor
#

There’s no right answer

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

There’s an answer to “What will give me the most dps”, you can sim that

static acorn
#

I’m just tryna think about my theoretical down the road position, avoid putting corruption onto pieces Im gonna be replacing and all

balmy condor
#

But “what should I buy right now”

static acorn
#

And typing it out helps me think it out

balmy condor
#

Is an opinion

#

And that’s also fine

sullen pagoda
#

going for ifs and whens is really not productive

#

go for whats good now not in 2 months

balmy condor
#

But this isn’t really meant to be a personal notepad

static acorn
#

But just typing it to myself doesn’t reveal if anything I’m thinking is stupid af

#

Like the idea of buying masterful 3 instead cuz it’s a 3

balmy condor
#

Sure

#

You can do that

#

You’re replacing all of this stuff anyway

static acorn
#

So it’s basically just spitballing options to see which ppl think are valid so I can decide from there

balmy condor
#

All of them are valid

#

That’s what we’re saying

#

If you want to know what’s “the most valid”

#

You simulate

static acorn
#

I mean there’s options I COULD take that wouldn’t be valid

balmy condor
#

You could buy a vers proc and say “ill do pvp while I wait for exped3

#

And that’s fine

#

Live your life

#

If you need the corruption in the next 2 weeks for progression raiding or m+ pushing

#

Simulate

static acorn
#

But like regardless most ppl seemed to agree the valid choice was getting an exp 1. What I do last is less relevant, but the what to do right now consensus was exp 1

#

Which was basically what I was tryna get

#

And I’m thankful I did

balmy condor
#

And I’m glad you found peace

steel ridge
#

Do you guys think 90% +Haste is too much and will overflow the energy bar?

balmy condor
#

90% haste unbuffed

#

Probably a little crazy

#

But people running around with 80% and it’s fine

#

You’ll cap in bloodlust

#

But that’s normal with that much haste

steel ridge
#

No +90% in exp

#

that’s probably around 75% in statsheet

balmy condor
#

90% in exped.......

#

You mean like an exped 3 is 12%, so 90% would be uh... 20ish?

drifting cloud
#

just because youre energy capped doesnt mean its bad

balmy condor
#

21?

drifting cloud
#

it just do be like that

bleak spoke
#

12 x 7 is 84

steel ridge
#

6x12 and 2x9

balmy condor
#

Yeah so exped20

#

Yeah that’s completely normal

steel ridge
#

That calc is flawed imho

bleak spoke
#

but yeh it's basically all expedient

balmy condor
#

Our BiS setup calls for exped23

bleak spoke
#

all the way down

steel ridge
#

Exp1 is 6% why would 12% be T3?

#

its basically T2-4

bleak spoke
#

you can't add it together yeah

balmy condor
#

Sure you can

drifting cloud
#

why do you sim 114k wtf

balmy condor
#

It’s 3% per 5 corruption

bleak spoke
#

idk man

#

i just kinda own

#

i have no sockets

drifting cloud
#

my gear is literally better where are you cheating

bleak spoke
#

but the gear the stuff is on is just good ig

steel ridge
#

yeah but if you say 7x12 is 21 thats bull

bleak spoke
#

it's all like v. high haste?

#

belt's kinda weird

balmy condor
#

Fine

steel ridge
#

its 7x12 should be 28 since T1 is 3%

balmy condor
#

Our BiS setup

#

Is 7 T3

#

And 1 T2

#

Does that help

drifting cloud
#

is it some dumb clockwork heart thing or what

steel ridge
#

Yep

bleak spoke
#

idk why it likes those pants

#

oh

#

are you not simming clockwork heart

#

are you not using*

#

clockwork heart

#

cuz that shit actually slams in the opener

#

sooooo hard

#

it's insane for stuff like raden if you go fast etc

drifting cloud
#

no this sim just makes no fucking sense

bleak spoke
#

like in any fight you don't get second v it's best by far no matter what innit

drifting cloud
#

omg its 3min

#

im dumb

bleak spoke
#

yeah

drifting cloud
#

ashufgfisfzhfd

bleak spoke
#

sim 3 minutes

#

honestly should sim 2

#

given kills are actually just 2 mins now

balmy condor
#

Yeah kill times are getting ridiculous

drifting cloud
#

yeah I know just a force of habbit to sim 5

#

after years

steel ridge
#

Exsang is better for shorter fights right?

balmy condor
#

Yeah

bleak spoke
balmy condor
#

It bursts harder

steel ridge
#

i sadly lack good SS pieces

bleak spoke
#

wouldn't have been for this one

#

this one would have been better with tb build probably

drifting cloud
#

2:20 proper players

bleak spoke
#

like 2 exact clean vendettas with that severe tb build

#

probably slams

balmy condor
#

Yeah 220

#

Feels yuck man

bleak spoke
#

i'm pretty sure i pressed my second vanish at ttd 0:03

#

or something

#

lmfao

balmy condor
#

Tell your raid to slow down

drifting cloud
#

yeah I guess if you know its gonna be 2:20 you have to what delay exsang

balmy condor
drifting cloud
#

and just vanish pad the adds

#

maybe :?

bleak spoke
#

i think i did vanish on adds

#

idr

balmy condor
#

Vop minor and hold vanish

hidden bay
#

Padding on adds

bleak spoke
#

nah i didn't

drifting cloud
bleak spoke
#

i don't think it's worth to even hold the vanish though because like

#

in bloodlust

#

idk

#

though if you vanish on adds you actually get to vanish on second exsang

#

which doesn't suck alot

#

but it kinda does

#

it actually just gimps your boss dammy though

#

like it fks the ele shaman, locks, etc

#

we Good Boy TM'd the adds for as long as we could keep them alive

drifting cloud
#

I dunno im just mashing buttons 3months into farm tbh

#

seems to work

bleak spoke
#

i think when we did that we were going for speed and not for parses per se

#

it just worked out kinda nice for everyone

drifting cloud
#

we dont even 1 phase vex I look at meter at the end I was like 122k

#

dont even know how

bleak spoke
#

dude i can't get them to try one phase vex

#

it's depleted

#

but we had like 5 people out on both days this week so idk

drifting cloud
#

well we did splits for like 2 months but now we dont anymore because people quit/break whatever so theres just random chars in on most bosses

#

and on most fights its worse for MUH LOGS

#

never 1 phase maut, vex, wrathion could die like 20s faster I wouldnt mind

#

etc

bleak spoke
#

Ahh I wish we did splits

#

But tbh if you asked me like a month ago

#

I wouldn’t have said that

drifting cloud
#

but atleast our raden kills are all scuffed 2:40-3min

sullen pagoda
#

why have splits when u can bring different alt every boss like me kekw

drifting cloud
#

which is good for rogue

bleak spoke
#

Man they still don’t let people bring trap alts

#

Me sad

sullen pagoda
#

ngl my mage is some next lvl wheelchair

bleak spoke
#

Apparently it’s “a bad precedent”

sullen pagoda
#

thats a new one

I remember I played assa on zul

#

didnt fok

got like a 3% without dying

bleak spoke
#

Can’t see why I can’t bring this

#

To reclear

balmy condor
#

56k woah woah slow down

#

That’s way too high

#

8.1.5 called, it wants it’s sim back

bleak spoke
#

The character is no meme 9 hours old

#

Has looted like 3 visions, 5 keys a weekly chest

#

The gear process is actually so fast on alts

#

Except when you hit the wall where you need sockets

#

Then you’re just upset

sullen pagoda
#

biggest residentSleeper is having to go farm badge in pvp

bleak spoke
#

Yeh

sullen pagoda
#

im still using nzoth hc trinket cuz i cba

bleak spoke
#

I got the plumage on my first 2s game

sullen pagoda
#

ofc i forget to use it at all 90% of the combusts but kekw

bleak spoke
#

Was so close but so so so far

#

Dawg just macro it to combust

#

Who cares

#

Wait actually

#

Do you need the verse bit active

#

What I’m not looking forward to farming font

#

Don’t want to be in some hc azshara group

sullen pagoda
#

yea u need to double tap the macro

bleak spoke
#

What

#

It just works for me

sullen pagoda
#

to cancel first part of the trinket

bleak spoke
#

Ohhh

#

Isn’t it okay to get the verse later though

#

Cuz the ignite modified on your standing verse

sullen pagoda
#

no idea everyone told me this is how its done and i just follow xd

bleak spoke
#

Ah

#

Maybe it does actually just snapshot

balmy condor
#

Don’t mean to be “that guy” but this isn’t the Fire mage channel btw

bleak spoke
#

That’s annoying

#

Man

#

It’s not like people have sin questions rn

drifting cloud
#

stop playing mages you degens

bleak spoke
#

But yeah you’re right

balmy condor
#

I mean yeah they aren’t

#

But it’s basically just a dm convo that’s off topic

#

So shrugR

green forge
carmine dawn
#

is EB crucial for m+? i have a sin azerite set but i dont have EB options and i dont wanna farm shit, just wanna play sin casually. what are the good all around traits? stick to DD/ttn and 1 ss/np?

sage oriole
#

you can run full shrouded suffocation and do pretty good

#

with heart of darkness

#

really good on smaller packs and you can use vanish to make larger packs good too

carmine dawn
#

lmao damn i can only squeeze 1 ss

sage oriole
#

gotta pump those numbers up for raid big boy

shut garnet
#

eb isnt crucial for m+, 3ss is though ;p

carmine dawn
#

i said im playing sin casually

#

outlaw is raid for me

sage oriole
#

lmao

shut garnet
sage oriole
#

most people would have it the other way around tbh

carmine dawn
#

thats cool

#

i guess.

#

thanks for the info friends

shut garnet
#

there’s no reason to not play outlaw in m+ if all your sin gear consists of no SS/EB/HoD

balmy condor
#

Ye outlaw is the m+ spec

sage oriole
#

outlaw in M+ is way better than sin

carmine dawn
#

lmao...

shut garnet
#

obviously if you REALLY wanna play assa in m+ with double dose and ttk

#

go dor it but

carmine dawn
#

i main outlaw. across the board. i just want to play sin casually.

shut garnet
#

it’ll just feel so shit

#

and do so badly

waxen socket
#

a few weeks ago i read something about a cancel aura for blood of the enemy for dungeons

shut garnet
#

just a warning

waxen socket
#

I think Seliathan linked it.

#

Do you also use that macro while in raid? for instance on nzoth with all the psychophages

green forge
#

Hi guys,
I recently simed GCB over plumage, and I have been really surprised about the DPS upgrade.

What’s your thought about GCB trinket ? I actually never played with it (yet). I feel like there is some kind of bosses which can make the zone really painful to stay in

shut garnet
#

it’s fine on bosses you can affort to stand still on

#

not much else

strange python
#

should make a !gcb command tbh

warm olive
#

For M+, does dropping TD3 also translate into more damage or just better consistency? What I mean is, if I dont care about consistency, after a million M+ runs, would I really have more damage with for example 16% strikethroughs instead? My statistically irrelevant average damage of TD is somewhere between 10-12%.

#

16% times average crit% over the dungeon would be my calc approach, even though I dont have that crit% number. I wanted to ask for your experience first.

tropic ocean
#

you can sim in raidbots

#

what gives you more dmg on x mobs over y attempts

warm olive
#

I always read here that "you cant really sim M+", but sure that would be an approach. Is Dungeon Slice what I Sim or hectic add cleave?

tropic ocean
#

well if you want to see the comparison between td and crit

errant delta
#

how important is the 34 crit when building the bleed build?

tropic ocean
#

I'd sim 5-6 targets

#

40s to 1min depending on your key height

strange python
#

not at all @errant delta

tropic ocean
#

dungeon slice is very inaccurate

#

and yes you can't really accurately sim m+

#

as its not a static thing, it changes with affixes, group comp etc

#

pulls will be generally bigger if you have firemage in group compared to when you dont

#

some groups pull trash into boss, others dont and so on

#

2 many variables

warm olive
#

I understand. So just asking for opinions, is the general opinion that its better overall? From a casual 15 Key standpoint.

tropic ocean
#

crit/crit dmg build is usually better

#

and also involves no rng basically

#

despite the rng to crit or not to crit, but with as much crit, thats pretty minimum

warm olive
#

Thanks

oblique comet

Hello. How do i sim Assa in Nyalotha, only Bosses? Do i use Patchwerk with 1 boss or 4 bosses , or do i use hectic Add Cleave?

sullen pagoda

anyone got a giga sim to share? i think my gear is solid but im still "only" at 102k dps

you are actually worse than me ausrr

quicksim is fine if you wanna compare to other people

i thought i was bad with 3 missing sockets kekw

tropic ocean

i have 16 vessels

but cba

😄

sullen pagoda
#

ye visions are actually

#

aids

bleak spoke
#

Visions are awful

sullen pagoda
#

at least our class is somewhat not cd dependent for visions

tropic ocean
#

should give more mementos from raid clear

sullen pagoda
#

doing it on mage is like torture

tropic ocean
#

or let us coin mementos or shit

vast forum
#

mage is aids for visions i agree

runic tinsel
#

seems the biggest thing is no cara weapons and gibbering maw. been unlucky with that head and havent killed cara yet

sullen pagoda
#

i tried doing a big pull on it to speed it up almost inted the key

tropic ocean
#

chest as well

sullen pagoda
#

cara weapon is big

#

and helm is big

tropic ocean
#

and 485 boots

sullen pagoda
#

chest is also bad

umbral rapids
#

with no access to mythic cara which daggers would you use ?

tropic ocean
#

the ones that sim highest

vast forum
#

@sullen pagoda do you run living bomb for visions?

sullen pagoda
#

yeah

vast forum
#

breath major?

sullen pagoda
#

i usually go the casual 2min build but i tried out 1min yesterday

vast forum
#

i just take breath major, you don't need any essence for bosses with combust imo

#

but it helps with trash a lot

sullen pagoda
#

yeah breath major sounds like it would be great

#

should do that today with rest ofm y keys

tropic ocean
#

damn i actually need to do vision

sullen pagoda
#

@umbral rapids your only other dagger choice without getting lucky in weekly is wrathion mythic

tropic ocean
#

to buy last severe

#

fml

sullen pagoda
#

is it severe now or

tropic ocean
#

y

sullen pagoda
#

playing too much warzone smh

#

dont even know the vendors

tropic ocean
#

i was so bored of wow that I went out with gf yesterday

#

desperate times

sullen pagoda
#

going out in 2020

tropic ocean
#

ik

#

hopefully with sl nolife again

sullen pagoda
#

seen some talks about it being in november

#

thats too far duuude

drifting cloud
#

we might get the date on tuesday or whenever the dev thing is

umbral rapids
#

@sullen pagoda oh right yeah. actually considering cleansing TA2 on the 470 one once i'll have enough expedients

drifting cloud
#

isnt is usually 3-4 months earlier

sullen pagoda
#

yeah screw TA

#

rng shit

umbral rapids
#

yah

#

don't have anything better atm though so i'll hold on to it

tropic ocean
#

you will enjoy rogue a lot more I assume once u got expedients

#

only rng is to proc or not to proc vita before exsang

#

😛

umbral rapids
#

i mean i enjoy rogue, just picked up sin yesterday to try to learn it

runic tinsel
#

there is slight RNG on opener if you end up with 5 or 6 CP aswell

umbral rapids
#

i play outlaw

tropic ocean
#

difference is small

umbral rapids
#

i was molded by rng

tropic ocean
#

between

runic tinsel
#

on a 3 min sim i do alot better

tropic ocean
#

ct or instant rupture

runic tinsel
#

most of our killtime is within 3mins or close aswell, only vexiona and drest thats abit longer

steep plover
#

Does dd favour longer fights? If so how come, is it just longer fights means more procs or?

tropic ocean
#

its a proc trait

#

so the longer the fight the more it evens out

steep plover
#

Eetswa

tropic ocean
#

but mostly it favors uptime

steep plover
#

Cause sims still tell me to run dd but im trying to get that bleed build

tropic ocean
#

well bleed build requires a decent amount of gear to take over

#

but you also need to apply some logic to when you can discard a dps difference

#

like if it sims 1k 2k lower on fights like raden, hivemind, ilgynoth etc that difference will be gone

steep plover
#

Ahh makes sense

#

Ok thankksss

runic tinsel
#

bleed build is honestly the best that could have happened to rogue. so much more fun to play than old TB/PB build

#

(this late in an expansion atleast)

vast forum
#

it was more fun in uldir too 😄

lethal coral
vast forum
#

don't run EB on hive/cara

the adds don't live nearly long enough to be worth it

just go full st

lethal coral
#

My guild is like a cute retirement home of older people, lol. I sort of have to hard carry them through Heroic Ny’alotha. I run my Mythics with another guild. Just started progression with Hivemind this week :^)

vast forum
#

still no reason to run aoe build there 😛

lethal coral
#

The adds don’t die quick with them, lol

vast forum
#

yea but they're also not very relevant

tropic ocean
#

Tell them to stack on Boss when drones spawn

#

And theyll die to cleave

vast forum
#

even if the small adds on hivemind don't die fast, what are they gonna do? melee you to death?

lethal coral
#

Yeah, lol

#

They do

placid dawn
#

if the dps can't kill the adds I would also guess that the healers won't be able to heal through the damage

limpid tinsel
#

does bleed build still work with lower amount of gear?

royal lantern
#

sim yourself too check that

#

but no, you need 3xSS and some expedient too make it work

limpid tinsel
#

Alright, cuz I just got 3 SS and my gear has 0 expidient, I was just wondering IF u could make it work anyways, to just have some fun. thanks for answer

royal lantern
#

ye, just sim and you have the answer

leaden garden
#

is exang build the go-to for m+ aswell?

balmy condor
#

No

#

M+ we want to use severe/strikethrough

#

Usually that turns into a TB thing

#

Big crunchy envenoms

#

But exsang is technically fine

#

I think it’s a lot of preference, but I do see more TB than exsang

misty heart
#

just double checking

#

lucid minor is vital

balmy condor
#

Until you get big haste yeah

#

At roughly 60ish% haste unbuffed you’ll see CT showing up for single target, and lucid kinda dropping out

#

Usually replaced by formless minor

misty heart
#

ahh alrighties ty 🙂

#

exp 3 is the new thing for ass rogue?

plain thistle
#

new thing? no, it has been like that for a while

balmy condor
#

Yeah if by new thing you mean 2 months

plain thistle
#

well, if you considerer that corruption is a "new" thing then yes xD

misty heart
#

yehh that's what i meant haha

#

and mix it with shrouded?

#

as traits

balmy condor
#

3x shrouded is Basically required for m+

#

For raids you can still do DD with a poison build, but as you get more expedients, exsang with SS traits will end up beating it

misty heart
#

ahh i see

#

which other traits do you stack?

balmy condor
#

With exsang and SS you’ll fill the rest with HoD, clockwork, or bbi from the gorak shoulders

ancient cosmos
#

is gatecaller a sim trap ?

balmy condor
#

A little bit

#

It’s incredibly strong if you can stand in it

#

But it obviously loses a fair amount if you have to move

#

It’s definitely usable though

ancient cosmos
#

so for m+ its a no go ?

balmy condor
#

Oh yeah for m+ it’s not great

#

Vita + spyglass/harlans/torment

ancient cosmos
#

is it better than azerokk for m+ ?

normal olive
#

Is drest trinket good for m+?

balmy condor
#

Azerokk is pretty mediocre imo

#

You can use plumage though if you want, especially in more boss-focused keys like WS and KR

#

The drest trinket isn’t great

#

I think it’s decent in pvp but don’t quote me on it

vast forum
#

it's bis for pvp

balmy condor
#

Pog

ebon heath
#

Do you run vita + plumage?

balmy condor
#

For what

ebon heath
#

m+

balmy condor
#

You can

#

I have a spyglass, so I usually run that

lethal wren
#

Maybe dumb question, but I just hit 120 on my first character, can I follow the pinned guide even tho I'm not gonna raid etc? And I'm only like 250 ilvl too but I need to find a guide about what spells to use and rotations etc

#

& talents

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

Wowhead/icyveins or the ravenholdt guide up top are all fine

#

The pinned exsang guide written by raz is more advanced

lethal wren
#

Alright, cheers :]

grave bison
#

@lethal wren triple SS build has low value with low haste, if you want to do decent damage with low ilvl gear(low haste) go triple double dose build(which is the old build for rogues)

#

btw if i cannot follow this channel you can whisper me on discord

balmy condor
#

^

lethal wren
#

Sure thing, what does SS stand for and how do I opt for those changes? Is there a guide or do I just swap out a talent or something

balmy condor
#

Shrouded suffocation

#

It’s azerite armor

lethal wren
#

Oh alright

balmy condor
#

You’ll want to simulate to see if/when it’s a gain to switch over to exsang

runic kernel
#

Does anyone know where I can get infexious gamings weakauras? Or are they not free?

balmy condor
#

They’re not free

It’s part of his patreon I think

Or YouTube member or something

#

Damnt...

balmy condor
#

prisma monolithBOT
balmy condor
#

You can use any of these if you want

runic kernel
#

Yeah, im just looking for ones for bleeds, with the different colors for empowered/pandemic etc.

#

i think lokkek one has it iirc

balmy condor
#

I also think lokkek’s one has a broken link

mighty elm
rancid bobcat
#

Just memorize it lol

nova gulch
#

Is it needed to use 2x dagger as sin? or could I run dagger main, fist offhand?

#

like the ra'den slapper

balmy condor
#

Double dagger

#

You can’t cast mutilate without 2 daggers

nova gulch
#

ooo true

balmy condor
#

Which is usually not great

nova gulch
#

Not IDEAL

balmy condor
#

There’s some hivemind padding where you run 3x EB and run double lash

#

And then just don’t mutilate

#

But that’s pretty cheesy

nova gulch
#

Lmao that sounds like pretty good cheese ya

balmy condor
#

It’s not even that good tbh

steep obsidian
#

i think i see rogues play that on the first pull of tol dagor where they pull the whole room

#

when they play ol the rest of the dungeon

balmy condor
#

yeah, that happens too

vagrant dirge
#

If I want to push some higher keys (pugging ) would I be better off focusing on outlaw? Got 20k echoes (don’t have many good corruptions at the moment) and getting severe?

balmy condor
#

I think at this point, its definitely an option to play sin

#

sin does fine, we just really need the re-stealths

vagrant dirge
#

Can sin work with haste amps in m+

balmy condor
#

yes but you'll lose a lot of aoe damage compared to severe/strikethrough

#

missing out on a lot of EB

vagrant dirge
#

Might pick up sev then

#

Can get 4 of them

balmy condor
#

usually you'll see 2x severe 3 and then a ton of strikethrough

#

sometimes 3x severe

#

any more than that, and its usually overkill

vagrant dirge
#

Ah maybe I’ll pick up 2 then and get strike through

i need to buy some severes to hit 34% crit

balmy condor
random quarry
#

hey guys I have a question im currently sitting at 41% crit on my char should I pick up 2 severe 3s?

balmy condor
#

probably not

#

that seems fine

#

how many severe you running atm

random quarry
#

i have severe 2 racing pulse 2 twisted appendage 4

balmy condor
#

is that a raid set?

random quarry
#

no, its a all I have set

balmy condor
#

I highly suggest separate sets for raid and m+

random quarry
#

thats the endgame

balmy condor
#

its more a sim question I would say

#

but you can pick up the corrupts for now and then works the sets

random quarry
#

okay thank you\

#

Is there a crit % breakpoint or anything that I should be aware of? Looking at my stat weights for sims shows that crit is still more valuable than anyting else for me for a dungeon slice.

balmy condor
#

no breakpoint

#

don't sim stat weights

void pecan
#

also dungeon slice is

#

bad

balmy condor
#

stat weight sims are awful

#

dungeon slice is fine

random quarry
#

😮

void pecan
#

y u say this when everyone else says no

balmy condor
#

because its fine?

#

koji has to talk about it all the time

random quarry
#

how should I try and find my stat weights?

balmy condor
#

you sim everything with top gear

#

DS is never meant to be perfect, it's just meant to be a tool. And it's a decent tool for looking at how setups will perform across a variety of pull sizes + boss in a composite sense.

There's always room for improvement in any multi-target/timing-based sim but generally most people's objections to DS aren't really about SS performance as much as it doesn't make EB look very good because of the large boss segment and percentage of smaller pulls

#

those are two of my favorite koji quotes ™️ regarding dungeon slice

#

cause I used to be a hater too

#

but its just a tool like anything else

#

and simming m+ is just not possible right now given the variation in keys

void pecan
#

Fair. Thanks for explaining fam

balmy condor
#

anytime

random quarry
#

thank you

sharp snow
#

any reason why all of my stats are higher then stats from highest mythic + players?

#

what am doing wrong or it shows differently on armory?

vagrant dirge
#

what azerite traits should be aiming for m+?

balmy condor
#

armory isn't the most accurate thing

sharp snow
#

after warcraft logs i insert their name there

balmy condor
#

logs stats are also kinda janky

sharp snow
#

so which one to use?

balmy condor
#

just look at the gear and the corrupts

sharp snow
#

i check best player on logs, wanna copy him , where to compare stats

balmy condor
#

@vagrant dirge 3x SS 3x EB btw

sharp snow
#

oh it doesent take in count corruption

little root
#

attempting to copy top players stats probably isnt your best move... use them as a guideline but simming yourself will always be more effective than going based on others gear and stuff

balmy condor
#

advice to live by

#

usually its just 2 severe3's and then a bunch of strikethrough

vagrant dirge
#

i dont have any gear with EB on 😮

balmy condor
#

that's a problem

#

:P

vagrant dirge
#

found 1 :/

#

Do you guys buy rng Residuum pieces or save the residumm for the 20k ones?

strange python
#

some save some gamble

balmy condor
#

I don't have a gambling problem

#

you have a gambling problem

strange python
#

I gamble

balmy condor
#

I can stop at any time

strange python
#

I cba to save 20k 8)

haughty hollow
#

Saved for Goruk Tul shoulders and gambled the rest

strange python
#

I'd rather complain about my rng being too shit

#

:))

ebon heath
#

Im like with lots of haste but not a single SS froma 480 lol, still getting DD's

vagrant dirge
#

should my secondary stats be haste so aiming for crit and haste gear?

balmy condor
#

for what content

vagrant dirge
#

m+

balmy condor
#

crit mast

vagrant dirge
#

kk

quasi pewter
#

crit vers if you are running eb

balmy condor
#

CT damage still pretty good though

#

and SS damage

#

but yes

#

full EB send is crit vers

random crater
#

does going crit do decently in st too? I only recently started playing rogue again and dont have enough echoes to invest in two separate sets of gear

balmy condor
#

kinda

random crater
#

haste is only st?

balmy condor
#

haste is okay in like KR/WS

#

but you're losing big aoe damage

random crater
#

I'm still rocking tentacles atm lol

vagrant dirge
#

my plan is to get corruption for M+ and then grind again for raid

random crater
#

thats a good idea

strange python
#

finally maxed my cloak, just go full exp3 or should i get anything else

balmy condor
#

for now full exp3

#

but you can sim that :)

strange python
#

i am the sim lord

#

just getting a baseline

vagrant dirge
#

managed to gamble for 2xEB and 3xSS

balmy condor
#

that's fine

#

whats the last trait

vagrant dirge
#

twist the knife

balmy condor
#

eh

#

not great

#

but usable imo

vagrant dirge
#

it's that or dagger in the back

balmy condor
#

yeah irontide helm

#

kinda yucky

vagrant dirge
#

deadly + quick enchants or something else?

balmy condor
#

always deadly and quick

vagrant dirge
#

i can get an EB and SS but means dropping 15ivl on the helm

thick jasper
#

im so confused man

vagrant dirge
#

not sure if thats worth it?
