#

19 kills and I've coined it everytime, got 2 total

#

Took me a long time for the first

void pecan
#

My server got merged and fucked lock outs so we have to reclear to carapace+nzoth šŸ™‚

fallow otter
#

Didn't it just reset anyway?

#

Ohhhh raid lockout

#

Can you clear easy? Usually people want to clear for gear but you gotta lock for more time practicing

void pecan
#

Guild is medium casual.

#

and only recently got into "progression"

#

so killed raden ilg and dick pinata once

granite lance
#

if I'm running the haste build and have a 460 vita nd glad medallion, should I replace one of them with a 475 torment in a jar and/or wraithion trinket?

#

the medallion is socketed tho

void pecan
#

vita+wrath probably but sim it to be sure

granite lance
#

thanks

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

thats 100% a sim quesiton

#

no one here has the answer

fallow otter
#

Let us know what the result is, if you are exang in expecting glad+vita to win

balmy condor
#

Same

#

Glad and socket is good

lethal pilot
#

if i have 50% base haste should i get crit corruptions aswell

#

assassin

#

c/h/m 31/50/34

fallow otter
#

Nope

#

Just go balls deep expedient

#

You focusing raid?

balmy condor
#

Yeah just full send it on the expedient

granite lance
#

finished what I was doing so I could run some sims... all are within like 2% of each other, but the medallion is best by 1%, probably because of the socket.

in multitarget the jar/vita combo was best

balmy condor
#

1% is a lot

#

Socket op

fallow otter
#

1.3k dps is 1% pog

i wanna remove outlaw from my tags

#bot-spam

vital haven
#

thank you : )

balmy condor
#

Wow vel so helpful

arctic walrus
#

yeah what would you know

balmy condor
#

That’s why they give you the big bucks

#

Idk man I’m orange on mythic skitra

#

I’m pretty giga

vital haven
#

nice dude

#

i got a dagger today from cara

#

so thats 4

balmy condor
#

Hemo’s sweating

arctic walrus
#

still 2 btw

#

killed mid february btw

patent topaz
#

11 kills with coins, 1 dagger

#

no more raids before prepatch

balmy condor
#

Good rogues don’t need cara daggers

void sinew
#

is there a def date for pre patch

#

or just around sept

strange python
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
balmy condor
#

No definite date yet

#

Late September best idea

void sinew
#

pepeez ty whispyr

drifting cloud
#

even sept probably out of reach

#

with prepatch usually being a month think its safe to excluse an October release date

#

when its 19th August and we dont know release date

vital haven
#

i did a little bit of research

#

once prepatch hits ptr it usually takes 2 months for an expack to release

balmy condor
vital haven
#

this has been the case in legion, mop, cata, etc etc etc

drifting cloud
#

the problem with that is Nairda

vital haven
#

but ye the only detail here is they havent announced it

#

which is def weird

drifting cloud
#

yeah

vital haven
#

like my guildies are convinced it gonna be on october

balmy condor
#

Wowhead also does the ā€œdo this before expac endsā€ post ~2 months out

vital haven
#

and im just like we are almost at sep and they havent announced the release date

drifting cloud
#

well I was hopeful for late October

balmy condor
#

Which I know is pretty tinfoil_pepe

drifting cloud
#

a month and a half ago

#

no way now

balmy condor
#

But like

#

Hmmm

vital haven
#

like they announced that bfa release date like on april of that year

#

bfa launched on august

drifting cloud
#

its gonna be like 1st Dec raid dleayed to 2021 kekw

vital haven
#

fuck i need to research that as well

#

when did they announce the release dates

drifting cloud
#

its almost always 3-4 months in advance

#

iirc

strange python
#

when im doing rotation and dpsing should i be spamming my keys or wait for energy to regen a bit?

balmy condor
#

If you’re playing low haste builds

#

It’s worth pooling for TB windows

strange python
#

i see

arctic walrus
#

you gotta consider there wasn't a global pandemic for the release of previous expansions

strange python
#

i wish it was delayed

balmy condor
strange python
#

this is the truth

#

maybe after they finish every other class

#

they'll change slaughter, add 2 rogue talents and fix up the bugs

storm drift
#

in m+ as assa with 80% unbuffed haste should i be going for getting garrote/rupture on all targets or get my shrouded suffocation garrotes out of 3 diff targets then spam crimson tempest?

balmy condor
#

Always get 3 empowered garrotes out

#

Rupture anything that lives long enough

#

Maintain CT

#

Envenom if less than ~7 targets

#

CT if more than 7

storm drift
#

after getting CT on every target should i just spam it or focus other dots/envenom?

#

less than 7 targets i should use envenom

balmy condor
#

Yes

storm drift
#

just spam CT when 7+ targets

balmy condor
#

Yes

storm drift
#

alright

#

is 80% haste 33% crit decent stats?

balmy condor
#

Sure

#

For a haste build in m+, it’s literally just raid build with plumage instead of gale

#

So

#

Seems fine

storm drift
#

wait what

balmy condor
#

Wait what what

storm drift
#

plumage/gale is? xD

shrewd night
#

Trinkets?

#

Specific pieces of gear?

storm drift
#

ohhhhhhhhh

#

i thought it was some talent i couldnt remember haha

balmy condor
#

Yeah Galecallers is the shrine trinket

#

Big haste

#

Plumage is the KR trinket, big vers

storm drift
#

i've been playing vita/badge for raids im playing vita torment in a jar for m+

vital haven
#

is 80% haste 33% crit decent stats?

#

so close my dude

#

so goddamn close

storm drift
#

?

balmy condor
#

Jar is kinda PainsChamp

#

Imo

shrewd night
#

Don't meme the new guy

vital haven
#

im just memeing ignore me

#

sorry sorry

balmy condor
#

Jar is fine

#

But it’s like

#

A LIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTLE bad

storm drift
#

i dont have gale and gmate's saying its good for m+

balmy condor
#

Gale in m+

#

Yikes

#

I wouldn’t recommend it

storm drift
#

i mean torment

#

gmates saying torment is good

balmy condor
#

Oh

#

Yeah it’s okay

#

Ain’t great, def not bis

#

But it’s usable

storm drift
#

should i use plumage vita for m+?

balmy condor
#

Ye

storm drift
#

aight i just have the issue that i never rlly vendetta on trash

steep plover
#

What are good trinket combos for haste build and crit build for m+, like i was running harlans + spyglass for crit but i just got a plumage so i replaced the spyglass with that, and for haste im running vita + harlans

balmy condor
#

With a haste build that’s kinda really bad

#

You should start vendetta trash

storm drift
#

aight i just never know which target to vendetta

balmy condor
#

If you’re using a crit build never replace the spyglass

#

Spyglass is huge

#

Spyglass + something for crit build

steep plover
#

Oh didnt know it was that good

balmy condor
#

Dice, plumage, vita if you don’t have anything, torment

#

@storm drift that’s just experience of keys

#

Need to do more keys :P

steep plover
#

I think might go plumage then cause it feels less rng and i like pressing it during rotation makes it feel more complicated LOL

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

Plumage/spyglass is pretty bis imo

steep plover
#

It goes big on big aoe fok pulls too

balmy condor
#

Plumage + bote together

#

Really massive

steep plover
#

Brah

#

Idk why the feeling of spamming fok with bote

#

Its orgasmic

balmy condor
#

I did a 20 waycrest today

steep plover
#

Just seeing the big bold numbers

balmy condor
#

Tank pulled the whole raal room at once

#

700k peak

#

Giga

vital haven
#

nice nice

steep plover
#

Jesus

#

How

#

I can barley hit 500k peak

balmy condor
#

6 garrotes, CT, plumage bote PUMP

steep plover
#

Oh true i usually save my vanish cause im scared LOL

storm drift
#

@balmy condor im not used to doing that much m+ i usually just get my weekly keys done and help friends/guild mates if they need it then just focus pvp ig

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

Just like in raids and stuff

#

More experience with the content

#

You get more comfortable

#

And you just kinda know what to do when

steep plover
#

Also the crit build is insane i dont get it? I pump single target and destroy most cunts in aoe consistently are others trash or is the build op?

balmy condor
#

Others are trash

#

You should get stomped by fire mages and bm hunters tbh

steep plover
#

I expect outlaws to stomp me too

vital haven
#

nah

steep plover
#

But the only rogue thats stomped me before was a sin

vital haven
#

sin and outlaw are pretty competitive dmg wise

balmy condor
#

Outlaws are similar damage

#

Yeah

steep plover
#

Respect

arctic walrus
#

idk about that in an actual good group

vital haven
#

i mean the only point of reference i have is ryfie

balmy condor
#

You’re right, outlaw might actually be worse

vital haven
#

and he does outlaw/dh tier dmg or maybe somewhat higher

balmy condor
#

Ye ryfie is nutty

steep plover
#

Since the crit build is so fun for me with the aoe spam u reckon outlaw would be worth trying? Is it similar in that sense?

balmy condor
#

I mean

steep plover
#

I havent played outlaw at this level before

balmy condor
#

It’s basically outlaw light

steep plover
#

Respect im gna gear it then

balmy condor
#

But we don’t have the rng

steep plover
#

But i cbf farming for raden weapon

balmy condor
#

Divers folly pog

steep plover
#

Ye i dont think theres anything else i need from keys for sin rogue after i got that plumage so might loot spec to outlaw

#

Do i change it to sin before i open weekly cache but so i get sin gear out of that or how does that work?

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

You can loot spec before opening

steep plover
#

How hard would it be to transition to outlaw apart from gear

#

Im scared i dont want to be shit

balmy condor
#

If you have a crit/Vers set for sin

#

Just use that

vital haven
#

if you have a severe/strikethrough build you just need the weaps

balmy condor
#

And azerite

#

But outlaw azerite is less punishing than sin iirc

#

Idk

steep plover
#

Ye i think my gear is decent just need more vers and figure out the traits

balmy condor
#

You can go pester guy about it

steep plover
#

I had an outlaw say that he wished he had my gear so i think its not that bad

vital haven
#

if you have the raid azerite gear you are set for the most part

steep plover
#

I have 1 lash weapon so thats ok i guess

#

Need 1 more weapon

#

Before i go into the outlaw channel is there a good % vers to have

#

My sin is around 10% with food

balmy condor
#

Me stupid red name

steep plover
#

Respect red name is the only name a respectable rogue has

#

Ty for the help but

balmy condor
#

No problemo frend

rotund mural
#

what is considered the best major essence for 5 mask vision clears?

balmy condor
#

Bote

#

You could run breath if you’re bad though

#

And remember that you can change talents

#

So if you need to CLF rexxar go for it king

rotund mural
#

damn, been using Bote and Iris mostly

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

That sounds reasonable

#

There’s some purification protocol players

#

Which I think is kinda yikers

#

But seems okay

rotund mural
#

protocol deals extra damage to abberations right?

balmy condor
#

Yeah but the main argument for it is the stun

vital haven
#

purification protocol major was like the play maybe at the beginning of the patch

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

When you couldn’t hammer everything down instantly

vital haven
#

where you like prayed for the extermination component

balmy condor
#

It was either breath or pp

vital haven
#

now you just mow through everything

balmy condor
#

uncut schooner
#

Hm, sims telling me it wants me to switch to a different ring with a socket but it means I'll drop to 32% crit... though I'll gain 12% more haste....

quasi pewter
tropic ocean
#

šŸ¤”

shrewd night
#

I wonder what kind of ring gets you 12% haste

uncut schooner
#

It doesn't, HoD bugged out.

#

I'll get about 7% haste from it.

#

+185 crit, +405 haste vs a ring with +426 crit, +147 haste.

turbid frigate
#

Hey guys got a question. I got all azerite pieces for the shrouded suffocation build but the sim says that it's slightly worse then my current double dose set. Is this a simbait or is just the difference not that significant?

shrewd night
#

If you, yaknow, link the sim

errant delta
#

so whats the concensis on covernat for raiding?

shrewd night
#

There is none

shrewd night
#

Check aggain after heoic week

#

Yike

#

Send me a top gear link please

turbid frigate
#

ok 1 sec

#

The problem is that my talents need to be different for those builds so it's not accurate

shrewd night
#

Running a sim now, its kinda gg since you dont have opttimal azerite for either build

turbid frigate
#

wow weird build but i'm gonna try it thx!

uncut schooner
#

What am I looking at.

#

šŸ‘€

cosmic jetty
#

are people rolling more expedients now over strikethrough/ severe?

turbid frigate
#

yes yes i know i'm shit, I started playing 3 months ago

#

and expedient seems to work best for assa but i will add 1 severe

cosmic jetty
#

correct me if im wrong, but does haste make the bleeds tick faster?

tropic ocean
#

yes

#

you are correct

scarlet sequoia
pastel orbit
#

Hey there, need some advice, so for assassination Mythic + Whats my stats? and corruptions. so currently running Crit 40%, Haste 18%, Mastery 47%, Vers 3%. should i keep stacking Severe corruption? What the ideal stat ratio.

crimson palm
#

You need 34% crit

tropic ocean
#

Either full crit/vers with 3 eb 3 ss traits and severe/strikethrough corruption

#

Or you can play raidbuild with full haste 3ss 3hod/1bbi corruption and all expedient corruptions

#

@pastel orbit

pastel orbit
#

Thankyou, so ive got way to much mastery for my full crit build haha. thanks

tropic ocean
#

Mastery is not bad per se but vers functions better with 3 eb

#

And also reduces your damage taken so its the better deal

spark pike
shrewd night
#

There is no haste breakpoint.

vestal granite
#

Hey team, Running Exsang build with HM3, stacked Expidient and Crimson Tempest. Do I take Dagger in Back or Twist the knife on my 480 Captains Hat Headpiece? Raidbots sims weirdly with CT > : < Envenom Priority I believe

spark pike
#

okayjust got over 85% with food and then it tells me to socket mastery

#

mine sims better with dagger in the back

vestal granite
#

I remember from way back someone said when using twist the knife it will mess up priority of Envenom and Crimson tempest

#

so not sure

#

quick sim kind of confirmed this for me back in the days where it would not even use CT on single target

#

at this point CT does a higher Damage per GCD according to ingame tooltips at least

shrewd night
#

okayjust got over 85% with food and then it tells me to socket mastery

scarlet sequoia
#

how would u end up with a ttk tho

shrewd night
#

Is the difference within errormargin?

spark pike
#

hmm cant u just try simming witouth ct then

#

wdym koffing ?

vestal granite
#

simming without CT what does that answer at all?

#

doesnt change envenom values

swift timber
#

the sim apl only casts CT on single target if you don't have ttk

vestal granite
#

yeah, I want to know whats better IF I use CT on single target

#

and I sure will xd

swift timber
#

gimme a sec

shrewd night
#

Exactly what I said. Everytime you sim there is a x dps errormargin. If your gem sims end up within the errormargin it doesnt matter what you socket as far as haste vs mastery goes.

#

The errormargin is stated on the right hand side of the sim result.

spark pike
#

ahh okay yea 25 celcius so my brain i not working

#

ill try simming again to check

crimson palm
#

Don't trust Koffing he's lying

He needs 100 whips to return back to form

Bold words from someone spreading youtuber theorycrafting

icy trout
#

Is there a ballpark amount of haste rating we need before going all Exp3? Also, are there any "necessary" items to have before making the switch? šŸ‘€

scarlet sequoia
#

2146

#

sorry

#

i mean

#

1537

#

is a good amount of haste

strange python
#

Yeah I’m teetering at something gross like 17% -.-

crimson palm
#

It's 1420 get your shit right

icy trout
#

@scarlet sequoia get out of my head

scarlet sequoia
#

no way

crimson palm
strange python
#

I’m sure my gear is all over the damn place though, I’m still getting vers/mastery as my top stats

icy trout
#

i'm simming higher with rando IS2/3/str/sev/vers corruptions than with full exp3 -.-

crimson palm
#

ok

icy trout
#

can't figure out why

crimson palm
#

ok

icy trout
#

halp ♿

spark pike
#

do you have the right talents and traits

icy trout
#

3x SS, 2x HoD, 1xBBI

spark pike
#

throw in your top gear sim

tropic ocean
#

pastebin simc string

#

pretty sure just user error in usage of raidbots

as usual

balmy condor
icy trout
spark pike
#

hmm my dagger in the back sims higher than ttk

balmy condor
#

Someone say sim?

#

Ausrr u doin it or should I

tropic ocean
#

none of us should do it

balmy condor
#

All that dagger in the back thing makes perfect sense

tropic ocean
#

but rules hopefully soon get fixed

#

and some moderation goes back into this channel

balmy condor
#

Did I miss something

tropic ocean
#

or maybe richard is back one day so rh quality can rise like nintendo stonks when pokemon go released

crimson palm
#

@balmy condor milk me daddy

icy trout
#

oh i don't think that simc has the right traits in it. i'm changing the head traits manually after paste because it's not reforged correctly atm.

balmy condor
#

That’s fine

tropic ocean
#

your gear is at a really low level, so its not uncommon that other corruptions sim better than full expedient

#

haste takes a good amount of gearing to start pumping

balmy condor
#

@crimson palm ionWOAH

tropic ocean
#

and especially higher lvl azerite

icy trout
#

that was my first thought but i'm comparing it against warcraftlogs at similar ilvls and a vast majority are still stacking exp3

tropic ocean
#

and naturally infinite stars will sim higher due to it being the strongest st corruption in the game (especially on haste favored characters) but its also the most rng one, and the most punished one when theres more than 1 target

swift timber
#

you don't even have haste on half your items

icy trout
#

i've tried swapping in high haste gear and it doesn't affect anything too much

tropic ocean
#

but even with your very subpar gear

#

haste will give you highest results (combined with is on st) switch is to more haste on cleave

swift timber
#

that's a dslice sim

icy trout
#

^

tropic ocean
#

y forgot to change 1 sec

swift timber
#

also helm in that sim has

#

outlaw traits

tropic ocean
#

but when haste is better on dslice already

#

over crit/crit dmg

#

it for sure will be on st

#

:p

#

but in a sec new sim will be there

icy trout
#

@swift timber read up a bit, i'm changing it manually after pasting because it's used in outlaw spec atm and i don't want to reforge now

balmy condor

yea gl on maut

balmy condor
#

I’d take the 3k hit tbh

#

Just to get rid of that shit

#

Sounds worth to me

balmy condor
#

IS tho

spark pike
#

yep

balmy condor
#

I hard cleansed that garbage

spark pike
#

raidboss loves it i guess

balmy condor
#

Of course it does

#

It’s IS

spark pike
#

i have only gotten it on alts

tropic ocean
#

@icy trout
even with your low gear expedient would outperform versatile/strikethrough, is will remain top sim corruption for pure st

#

the reason top gear wants to mix strikethrough vers and severe in, is that you do not have other corrupted gear available

#

so a 15 corruption versatile will be better than another weapon without corruption

#

same for other gear pieces

balmy condor
#

H A R D

#

C L E A N S E

spark pike
#

or just farm junkyard/workshop for new rings

balmy condor
#

Double IS rings, purify and go next

tropic ocean
#

if you had your gear available and the same pieces with expedient, raidbots would cleanse all versatile/strikethrough/severe and put expedient on it, except infinite stars for told reasons

#

so currently theres not much you can do besides acquiring better items (haste/mastery or crit/haste) and farm corruptions to put expedient on all of them

#

and well, upgrade your azerite and weapons

balmy condor
#

Expedient isn’t coming around for a while though

swift timber
#

possibly not at all

icy trout
#

Thanks for all the help/feedback. I've almost solely been focused on M+ since i started playing again, so most of this gear is whatever random pieces I had to throw together into a raid spec for my casual heroic raden farming group each week.

swift timber
#

if we're talking 3

balmy condor
#

Yeah

icy trout
#

good thing i bought 8x exp3 in advance then eh

tropic ocean
#

then you just need to farm gear

balmy condor
tropic ocean
#

and you good to roll

balmy condor
#

That’s a lot of expedient

icy trout
#

lol jk i wish

tropic ocean
#

for raid i'd just play your is setup and switch to outlaw for the cleave fights

#

if you desperately want to play sin in m+ or aoe/cleave fights, just unequip your is rings and equip all your honed mind, strikethrough severe items

balmy condor
#

And I would play that setup on shad and Maut and nothing else

tropic ocean
#

will be sufficient

#

and raden, and wrathion and xanesh

icy trout
#

oh by M+ i meant purely outlaw setups

balmy condor
#

You’re a madman if you’re taking IS5 into raden

tropic ocean
#

no?

#

its his highest dps possible

#

by a mile

balmy condor
#

By 3k

#

At least when I tossed something together

tropic ocean
#

you might want to fix what you inputted in his sim

balmy condor
#

?

#

I would take a 3k loss just to get rid of IS

#

Any day of the week

#

The cleave on raden is going to make that 3k evaporate

tropic ocean
#

its not a 3 loss

#

and theres no real cleave on raden

#

anyway

balmy condor
#

That’s why we hold vanish for adds right

#

Cause there’s no cleave

tropic ocean
#

hes raiding

#

heroic

#

so gj

balmy condor
#

Okay and

icy trout
#

add is alive for a whole 5 seconds

balmy condor
#

I mean if raden is a 2 min fight for you guys

#

Sure

#

Go for it

#

W/e

#

But there’s groups with like 7 minute normal Radens atm

icy trout
#

LOL

tropic ocean
#

and

#

for that is is even better

balmy condor
#

So I don’t think ā€œit’s heroicā€ means something

tropic ocean
#

yes it does

#

because theres only 1 add in heroic

#

which lives for a small duration majority of fight is st

#

and the longer the fight goes, the better his is will be

#

anyway

balmy condor
#

Yes but if that add is up for 20-30 seconds

spark pike
#

well he is rogue just hug boss entire fight lol

balmy condor
#

Your IS is going down the drain homie

vestal granite
tropic ocean
#

its not

spark pike
#

mine aswell blackgward

tropic ocean
#

pls dont give these bad advices

balmy condor
#

Yeah the dagger in the back makes sense

#

You give IS a second add to hit, it’s gonna fucking hit that

#

Cause it hates you

vestal granite
#

I remember yesterday, thing from beyond spawning, got hit by IS 0,1 sec later

#

x)

tropic ocean
#

so?

balmy condor
#

So rip DPS lmao

tropic ocean
#

thats not how raiding works but sure

#

and even if it hits add few times

#

its still his best available corruption

swift timber
#

I mean neither of you are wrong it just depends on how much rng you're comfortable with no?

spark pike
#

my dmg on hc nzoth is still is (on my fury)

tropic ocean
#

telling him to purge rings or not use them is the worst advice to be done

balmy condor
icy trout
#

just get lucky procs 4head

spark pike
#

main dmg is r3 IS because of 40+ hits

tropic ocean
#

because even if the add is up 100% of the fight

#

is is still his best available corruption

#

on 3 target too

#

add up 60% of the time

#

and cba simming more

balmy condor
#

Well

#

You’re right

#

And corruptions are fucking dumb

tropic ocean
#

he has no other options

balmy condor
#

Get me out

tropic ocean
#

if he had expedients he'd purge it

balmy condor
#

Not for a while though

swift timber
#

doesn't IS sim higher even with full bis

tropic ocean
#

but doesnt have anything else thats remotely close to is

#

on full st yes

#

on cleave not

swift timber
#

ah fair

tropic ocean
#

theres no better corruption than is on pure st

#

like shadhar wrathion or maut

balmy condor
#

Yeah

tropic ocean
#

and in heroic some more bosses get added due not having the mythic mechanics

balmy condor
#

Like xanesh

tropic ocean
#

like is will have more value in xanesh/raden heroic than in mythic

#

cuz no adds/less adds

balmy condor
#

That we agree on

tropic ocean
#

is for him is just better alone for the fact that with his other corruption he cant reach a decent < 40 corruption lvl

#

cuz they are all like 15s

#

and bad 35s ones

balmy condor
#

Ye true

tropic ocean
#

like he can equip 125 corruption of is and still be under 40

#

and he just doesnt have the items to supplement that amount of corruption with others

balmy condor
#

I can’t wait for corruptions to be gone tbh

tropic ocean
#

and for parsing u want some is anyway

#

but usually you go over 60 with it

crimson palm
#

no u dont

tropic ocean
#

ya you do

#

even you can't defy raidbots

crimson palm
#

physics says wormholes can exist

#

do you see them in the universe?

tropic ocean
#

and even you wont beat a player that runs 8 exp 3 +is 3 with good rng on shadhar

#

when you run 9 exp 3

#

or 8 exp and 1 hm

#

because increasing your corruption while you can still survive

#

using is on top of your normal exp

#

will do this

#

free 35k dps

balmy condor
#

Well 8exp 1hm3 is also 40 less corruption

tropic ocean
#

yeah but we've hit a state in the game where many ppl play more than 40

#

more than 60 even

#

for parsing purposes

#

or play the tentacle casino build

crimson palm
#

apart from ming lees who wipe on the boss until the guy who's parsing gets decent rng you won't find anyone serious playing that shit

tropic ocean
#

wrong?

#

r1 shadhar 3 tents +severe

#

r2 shadhar full exp +t3 is

tropic ocean
#

r3 shadhar ful exp +is3

balmy condor
#

Getting rid of one of the IS rings

tropic ocean
#

r4 shadhar full exp +is3

balmy condor
#

It’s something

tropic ocean
#

thats

#

59 corruption

crimson palm
#

the constraint was ming lee

#

and serious

tropic ocean
#

yes 59 corruption > 34 corruption

balmy condor
#

Correct

#

:)

#

But shhhhshh

#

It gets rid of the IS

tropic ocean
#

except taht these players are no "ming lees" that wipe until one gets rank 1

#

but just normal players running overcorruption to log?

#

ryler must be a ming lee too cuz hes playing full exp +is 3 on shadhar šŸ˜„

#

nibrenksx big ming lee too hehe

crimson palm
#

do you see the date

#

on his log

tropic ocean
#

how does it matter when you run 7x exp +t3 is

#

on st fight to log?

crimson palm
#

ok

#

you do you

tropic ocean
#

thats 110 corruption

#

or 106 to be exact

#

apart from ming lees who wipe on the boss until the guy who's parsing gets decent rng you won't find anyone serious playing that shit
@crimson palm ^

:)))

scarlet fjord
#

Is there a channel in this discord that people talk about shadowlands or is it just in the spec specific channels?

balmy condor
#

Spec specific

#

That’s about the closest to a shadowlands channel

faint harness
#

with alacrity and snd

#

melee dmg :))

balmy condor
#

:)) seems good

faint harness
#

fun spec šŸ™‚

#

granted probably not playing the best talents, just testing slaughter for sin

#

since it works with blindside now

onyx crane
#

am I missing something?

#

except gem slots

balmy condor
#

Severe pants + gushing feet seem to be 200 up

uncut schooner
#

Melee rogue seems good.

#

Ngl.

balmy condor
#

But aside from sockets and running more than 30 corruption, no

uncut schooner
#

Whisp

balmy condor
#

Bisquity

uncut schooner
#

Is it a mistake for me to drop from 34% > 31% crit even though sims is telling me it's a 1.8k dps upgrade.

balmy condor
#

Out of principle yes

#

1.8k kinda massive though

uncut schooner
#

Mind working some magic on a sim for me?

balmy condor
#

I guess the 34% gods aren’t with you today

uncut schooner
#

It wants me to drop the crit mecha ring for the haste ring with a socket I have.

balmy condor
#

Uh

#

That seems sketch

hidden oasis
#

yo guys is clockwork as good as herodamage shows

#

clockwork heart*

balmy condor
#

Idk what hero damage shows

#

But it is good

hidden oasis
#

shows that its #1 bis

#

for single target

onyx crane
#

so gushing still has some merit even after nerf. huh

royal lantern
#

gushing is bis for pvp

balmy condor
#

Gushing is also still pretty good for 15 corruption

#

It’s hasted

#

So on high ilvl pieces

onyx crane
#

I don't pvp

balmy condor
#

Still does pretty okay

#

@hidden oasis that 100% depends on fight length too btw

#

Herodamage uses template characters and stuff. I think they’re actually still on a crit build

#

So I would sim it

#

But clock chest is really really good

onyx crane
#

I lose 4% from 59 to 55 is that still good for bleed?

balmy condor
#

4% what?

#

Haste?

onyx crane
#

yeah haste. sorry

balmy condor
#

If It sims higher it sims higher

#

But it’s really close

#

So it’s really whatever

#

You can stick with just the stats

#

Or swap over

#

Won’t make a difference realistically

onyx crane
#

guess I should do that 5 mask and buy that socket...

balmy condor
#

I have so many runs I should do

#

But cba doing

onyx crane
#

I am only 1 5mask away from a socket

#

need upgrade this week

#

so seems like a practical thing to do

#

just wish o could ditch galecaller cuz that is a cumbersome trinket

balmy condor
#

It’s really not though

onyx crane
#

well like on a fight liek zanesh i can onlu use it on the soak part, it's not that great on hive mind I find, this is more due to my scatterbrain playstyle though

balmy condor
#

As long as you’re standing in it when you hit exsang every 2 minutes

#

That’s a huge part of it

#

The 1 min in between casts are useful, but not really that big

lean marten
#

!gcb

#

suprised thats not a pin yet smh

onyx crane
#

yeah I know but it's not convenient for me to play that way cuz I have trouble lining it up sometimes

balmy condor
#

You can’t macro it to like vendetta or something?

onyx crane
#

I have

balmy condor
#

So then there’s only like 2 gcd’s between gale and exsang

#

That’s an issue?

onyx crane
#

for me personally, yes I screw it up way too often to proper allign boon with exs

#

like I said it's peronal

#

personal

lean marten
#

unless you're HUMMIN it with sprint or something

#

thats a F in chat

balmy condor
#

Yikes

lean marten
#

just macro cloak and evasion into it too and P L A N T

onyx crane
#

when i got heart piercing stalectite in chest for a moment I thought I had a howl's shiv...

devout fiber
#

@balmy condor I have a question about rotation on pvp if u care to look

balmy condor
#

Don’t play garbage pvp

devout fiber
#

damn

balmy condor
#

Also pvp ā€œrotationā€

#

Kinda not something that exists

#

You either open or you die

devout fiber
#

Yeah but open on PvE is diff to PvP

#

On pve i do garrote rupture garrote

balmy condor
#

Icyveins has that written out for both

devout fiber
#

Yeah it does

#

i'm looking at it

#

but I was thinking it doesn't make sense a bit

#

Rupture at 3CP?

#

garrote and mutilate for the 5cp rupture

balmy condor
#

Why not 3 cp rupture

devout fiber
#

Is 3cp rupture worth?

#

And TB at 0CP?

balmy condor
#

It’s exactly as much DPS as a 6cp rupture

#

Just shorter duration

devout fiber
#

What about the TB at 0cp?

balmy condor
#

What about it

devout fiber
#

Dont u wna do that at 5 to time it for the most envenoms

balmy condor
#

Pvp things

devout fiber
#

true

balmy condor
#

Doesn’t seem too bad

#

Not going to kill yourself using Tb at 0

stark oak
#

Anyone fancy doing some mythics together? I’m only ilvl425 but would be good to see a good rogue in action šŸ˜‚

balmy condor
#

Region/faction?

stark oak
#

I am alonsus EU and horde

balmy condor
#

EU

stark oak
#

What are you?

balmy condor
#

A degenerate

stark oak

šŸ˜‚

lean marten
#

do u even watch anime smh

uncut schooner
#

What's an anime

#

Some kind of assassination talent?

wanton cobalt
#

Got some good daggers this week so I'm gonna try out assassin, should I use the higher ilvl/top end dmg in MH? I have a 475 Trixies backup backbiter and a 470 Shard of the Black Empire?

tropic ocean
#

yes

balmy condor
#

Always highest ilvl mainhand

wanton cobalt
#

Figured so but wanted to confirm, thanks!

balmy condor
#

Np

stark oak
#

Did anyone fancy any Mythics? I’m on now šŸ˜

onyx crane
#

so how is assa looking in SL so far?

balmy condor
#

it's basically EP sin with slice and dice

spiral hearth
#

guys if we are playing with galecallers boon, when do we wanna press the trinket? right after vendetta or?

balmy condor
#

yeah that's fien

#

as long as you're in it for exsang

spiral hearth
#

got u thx

placid dawn
#

do i want a mix of severes and ST for m+?

balmy condor
#

55-60% crit and then strikes yeah

strange python
#

ay, another week

#

without

#

2nd

#

cara

#

dagger

harsh sphinx
#

as is tradition

strange python
#

and i always have at least 1 other rogue in the raid that could trade me

static sky
#

with toxic blade, is it more efficient to only use it w/ rupture and garrote high enough to not need to be reapplied and at 3 combo points for the immediate envenom after popping it?

balmy condor
#

your bleeds shouldn't be reapplied during tb windows

#

especially not rupture

static sky
#

ok, and then i guess it would do more dps to use tb at 3 cp so i get the immediate envenom after?

balmy condor
#

yes

static sky
#

ty

balmy condor
shadow wedge
placid dawn
#

with hste build for m+, do i run harlans or spyglas?

balmy condor
#

probably spyglass imo

#

they both good tho

#

ideally would be vita and plume

flint pier
#

Guys

#

when do i use galecallers?

balmy condor
#

anytime before exsang in your vendetta/vanish cd's

#

and then on cooldown inbetween

flint pier
#

does it buff the existing dots?

balmy condor
#

as long as you're in it when you hit exsang

#

it does, but only if they're not exsang'd

#

exsang snapshots

flint pier
#

i garroted the dummy and then pressed galecallers and it didnt increase the dps?

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

it should

flint pier
#

okay

#

and is 465 still good?

balmy condor
#

the highest you're getting without RNG

#

so

#

yeah

#

sounds good

flint pier
#

cool

#

ty for helping me bro

balmy condor
#

np

solar latch
#

ok should all my sockets be haste

balmy condor
#

sim question tbh

urban gale
#

475 humming black dragon scale sims over 460 vita?

balmy condor
#

he doesn't have vita

urban gale
#

oh

#

how bad is shorting vs overclocking

balmy condor
#

pretty bad

urban gale
#

damn

rocky ruin
#

just saw outlaw will get from the artifact dreadblades lul

mellow pier
#

Imagine creating a new thing for rogue in last 4 years

balmy condor
rocky ruin
#

nah im sin but shouldnt we get our artifact talent too or shiv just the band aid

balmy condor
#

sin doesn't get nice things

rocky ruin
#

its not very creative from point of view

#

i know we dont get something nice why should we

mellow pier
#

Rogue is very difficult i think to create new things for because of cp and finishers

#

Its kind of a real basic formula

balmy condor
#

yeah, like ret paladins and holy power

#

and monks with their chi

#

and warlocks with their soul shards

#

and frost mage with icicles

mellow pier
#

Its different tho for them my guy stop

#

Completely different

#

Those classes dont generate the same amount as us

strange python
#

Nice logic

balmy condor
#

defending blizzards lack of creativity is pretty painschamp

rocky ruin
#

just replace PB with Kingsbane ez

balmy condor
#

combo points aren't the issue

mellow pier
#

Im not defending it wut

strange python
#

Why would u replace pb

#

Smh

rocky ruin
#

then hidden knives

strange python
#

No

balmy condor
#

they could replace half our talents without even touching combo points

#

but they don't even do that

mellow pier
#

I literally circle jerk the shit on blizz stuff all the time lmao

strange python
#

You replace venom rush

#

With KB

rocky ruin
#

yes ok you got me

#

thats the better idea

mellow pier
#

Yes more recycled ideas

#

Next xpac we will have combo points back on mobs and redirect added as a talent to compete with others

#

Classic blizz

balmy condor
#

I'd rather recycled ideas than no ideas tbh

rocky ruin
#

well sub wil get some called prema or so

balmy condor
#

venom rush, master poisoner, elaborate planning, poison bomb

#

get rid of it all

mellow pier
#

??? Everything we got is from legion or wod

balmy condor
#

they're all trash

rocky ruin
#

isnt that a classic talent too?

strange python
#

There was nothing wrong with KB

#

It was even better design than TB

balmy condor
#

yeah

strange python
#

Got scrapped for no reason

balmy condor
#

all they had to do was give us KB

#

turn some set bonuses or legendaries into talents

#

gg

#

would've been fine

#

but instead we get venom rush

strange python
#

I was expecting TB to replace VR since they talked about it in alpha

#

But i guess it got scrapped as well

mellow pier
#

@balmy condor we got that for our legos

balmy condor
#

true

mellow pier
#

NH 2pc

rocky ruin
#

maybe KB will become a talent replaced venom rush and enhance our TB

balmy condor
#

it won't

#

would've been there by now tbh

#

I think we're stuck with venom rush

strange python
#

I think that ship has sailed

balmy condor
#

if they were planning on it

strange python
#

Ur stuck with VR

balmy condor
#

they would've removed it and added a coming soon

#

like the other rogue specs

fleet anchor
#

Venom Rush is best talent, wdym

balmy condor
#

koji said so

#

must be true

fleet anchor
#

Compared to Vigor it is extremely creative 🤣

balmy condor
#

I'll quote that to everyone in this channel for all of shadowlands

fleet anchor
#

They brought in weapon tokens to raid, so at least we have finally escaped from dagger hell

#

But think about the creativity that went into Venom Rush. Like it could have just been "The energy cost of Mutilate is reduced by 5" but they made it a REFUND, based on POISONS. Such class fantasy, much creative.

strange python
#

Ye now i can just force dk's and mages to trade me weapon tokens

balmy condor
#

its like the sub design

#

finishers aren't free

strange python
#

Tbh Koji just needs to send an angry letter to Ion

balmy condor
#

they just refund more energy than you used on them

strange python
#

KB already exists

balmy condor
#

its much more immersive that way

strange python
#

Just make it happen

#

Cba that talent row

rocky ruin
#

lol

#

In this week’s build, Subtlety Rogue gains a familiar name as a new passive talent, Premeditation.

This talent allows the Rogue to skip a step during their opening onslaught, by providing Slice and Dice when Shadowstrike strikes a target from Stealth.

Outlaw Rogues will also see a familiar friend return in their talent tree. Dreadblades delivers a mighty strike to your enemy, and invokes the memory of the Legion Artifact active by causing combo point generating abilities to fill the Rogue’s combo points while active, but at the similar cost of their health when using these cursed combo points on finishing moves.

#

i think there deleted sin from there minds

balmy condor
#

sin has all their talents, its fine

#

smilers

crimson palm
#

u mean sin still has hidden blades and venom rush

fleet anchor
#

I wouldn't be too jealous

#

Both of those talents looking pretty ass right now

#

The Premed thing is probably only really good for solo or PvP unless they change it, since Fuu was saying it only works from real stealth and not Shadow Dance

#

So GGs getting like a couple refreshes of SnD and 8 CP per fight from a talent

balmy condor
#

yuck

rocky ruin
#

but koji senpai they got something and i mean our talents are set, but still is feels kinda the same

plain thistle
#

dagger hell? you mean 12 WEEKS TO GET A CARAPACE DAGGER?

fleet anchor
#

Better than a placeholder I suppose šŸ˜„

plain thistle
#

yes please

rocky ruin
#

its like playing bfa with sl mods

balmy condor
#

what if it works with SD

#

but its just bugged like the rest of sub

fleet anchor
#

I'll tell you on launch day I guess

balmy condor
#

well

#

at least sin didn't get something

#

that means less work for me

#

bright side

rocky ruin
#

next week big sin change not good for us but for them ^^

strange python
#

Pretty sure this was it for rogue changes

#

Cya on live

crimson palm
#

@fleet anchor it should be good with the vanish cdr & sepsis

balmy condor
#

X to doubt

#

gonna need a lot of vanish cdr

fleet anchor
#

Still seems like a really weak effect

strange python
#

Doesnt sound very good if you need all that

fleet anchor
#

Possible though

crimson palm
#

its a 15 talent

strange python
#

Just to make a talent worth

crimson palm
#

alternative is WM

fleet anchor
#

Gloomblade probably has more synergy with a shadow damage build than this would with a Vanish build

balmy condor
#

alternative is gloomblade imo

#

crit from gloomblade gives find weakness with 0 positional

crimson palm
#

well napkin math

balmy condor
#

that's pretty big

crimson palm
#

15% procs on WM results in X additional SS

#

2 cps and 10s per vanish on premed

balmy condor
#

its just the damage though

#

WM doesn't give CP

crimson palm
#

say you get like 3 vanish usages

#

that's 6 CPs and 30s which is 1 snd gcd

#

so you get 2 "free" finishers with premed on 5 mins

#

assuming no sepsis

#

3 SS wm procs will beat this easily

#

is my napkin math wrong or is it seriously this bad of a talent?

balmy condor
#

its pretty bad

gusty cipher
#

WM procs do generate cp though

balmy condor
#

if they make it work with SD, it would be first dance

#

do they? last I checked they don't

#

I do admit its been a hot minute though

#

and I am wrong often

solar latch
#

forgot how much time i need on garrote/rupture before i exsang

#

18 secs on garrote?

crimson palm
#

refresh em before exsang

balmy condor
#

always 6cp rupture and garrote

crimson palm
#

and dont think about it

balmy condor
#

regardless of time

fleet anchor
#

Think WM does generate CP nowadays yeah

static sky
#

do yall hold toxic blade if vendetta is coming off CD in a certain amount of time?

balmy condor
#

I actually don't remember

#

I don't believe so

#

as long as you fit a TB into your vendetta

#

should be fine

fleet anchor
#

Only if you are using Font

#

With Font you would hold within 10s of Vendetta, otherwise just use it on CD

static sky
#

ok, and its ok to let the bleeds fall off, or pop tb when bleeds still have like 14+ seconds remaining?

red plaza
#

monkaW playing font as rogue ptsd

balmy condor
#

never let bleeds fall

#

you can pandemic bleeds long enough to fit into your tb windows

static sky
#

Ok, so I guess the wording on the guides throws me off a bit. Bleed refresh is specifically at the times listed, or under the times listed?
