yeah

normal olive
#

Can i also make a scuffed screenshot?

balmy condor
#

no

normal olive
#

y u no strem yet

#

me bored

balmy condor
#

I did earlier

#

kek

normal olive
#

you said you'd come back

balmy condor
#

well I said maybe

normal olive
#

Guess i need to go to bed then

balmy condor
#

work happened

#

so rip

normal olive
#

what is this going to bed at 4am fuck this

#

Just did the most scuffed key ever

#

should have played outlaw kekw

fleet whale
#

so right now it works like

#

if you spend combo points on another target

#

you lash at the original one

normal olive
#

The new venthyr one?

fleet whale
#

yeah

balmy condor
#

yeah that makes sense from the tooltip

fleet whale
#

that's what people are saying in the other channels lol

normal olive
#

Well you debuff the target

#

not get a buff for your self

fleet whale
#

you get both

balmy condor
#

I thought it wasn't implemented though

normal olive
#

wat

fleet whale
#

it was just implemented

balmy condor
#

smh

fleet whale
#

randomly like 10 mins ago

balmy condor
#

imagine having beta

fleet whale
#

i don't have it either

normal olive
fleet whale
#

just following the channels lol

balmy condor
#

kind of infuriating

#

cause people ask beta questions

#

and im like :)

normal olive
#

I shadowstepped my self to death on rezan

#

after the pursuit debuff was gone

#

i call bs

low girder
#

no beta club

balmy condor
#

ye it persists after the debuff for a little

#

cause the animation is jank

jagged yoke
#

anyone got a vid of flag?

normal olive
#

if you into flags i guess there is nothing wrong with that peepostudy

slim wagon
#

Not the flag you wanted but the flag you deserve

past bobcat
#

!guide

warm star
#

Does the new cov ability have a chance vs necrolord on assa?

balmy condor
#

don't know yet

sturdy flume
#

Does it even work for you guys? I just created a 2nd rogue to try it out, and I can't reactivate the ability after reaching 25 stacks. The button starts glowing, but nothing happens when I press it

strange python
#

It seems bonespike is still better

balmy condor
#

yeah that's what the sub people have been saying

#

but I think its also bugged

strange python
#

Also from the tooltip, even at multitargeting, where assa shines, bonespike seens to be better

balmy condor
#

koji's an actual legend though, first implementation flag already

#

so we'll have sims soon ™️

strange python
#

Same as usual, just wait the sims^^

final saffron
#

anybody knows how much lower MP sims than BS atm? in the first talent row (SL Beta)

final saffron
#

hmm so they are about the same? Kinda feel like MP will be better scaleable than BS when you get more mastery/haste, but I'm just speculating

balmy condor
#

that's what the sims showed

#

at max conduits, MP and BS are basically neck and neck

#

but that's months out most likely

shrewd night
#

Reals > feels. Although the proper reals are about two months off.

final saffron
#

just figuring out how I wanna change my keybinds and I don't really wanna fit Ambush in my rotation atm tinfoil_pepe

shrewd night
#

Macro it

balmy condor
#

yeah

final saffron
#

how would the macro be? Castsequence?

#

thought they fucked over those macros long ago

shrewd night
#

I dont know how to work it myself, but there should be options to macro it together with mutilate so it casts ambush when available. Worst case scenario have modier buttons like shift/ctrl.

balmy condor
#

would try /castsequence Ambush, Mutilate

#

and see if that works

#

if that doesn't work then idk either

#

seems very sketchy though

fallow otter
#

They got rid of it swapping for procs for obv reasons

final saffron
#

when I tried something like that last time it would always cast Ambush, and the problem is also you only wanna use it when you have a proc from BS which that macro doesn't solve :d

balmy condor
#

cause that would cause a ton of loop holes

#

yeah

#

so then rip that idea

#

make a modifier key

final saffron
#

ye I guess a modifier is the best solution, but that's still a new keybind pepehands

shrewd night
#

idk chief, assa doesnt have that many keybinds that it would be a hassle to add another kekchamp

final saffron
#

but as you said, if they are gonna stay close to eachother I might aswell just go with MP, MP should scale better than BS at higher ilvls?

fallow otter
#

You are losing essence and CT

final saffron
#

well if you aren't counting our pvp abilities then it's okay, but I like having everything for 1 keybind at all times

balmy condor
#

essence is probably replaced with covenant

#

ct is still used in m+

#

so that kinda doesn't work

final saffron
#

@fallow otter I never really played with essences at all since I quit during Uldir

balmy condor
#

ah well then you need two keybinds

fallow otter
#

Add snd

shrewd night
#

If it wasnt for blindside and zoldycks I wouldnt even have wanted to consider assa SadgeCry

final saffron
#

fuck you @balmy condor xD

balmy condor
final saffron
#

haha jk you are a lovely soul ❤️

shrewd night
balmy condor
#

look at my swamp koffing

#

the wholesome nature of my swamp

final saffron
#

rolling with 27 comfortable keybinds atm, might aswell try to make 30 work out somehow monkahmm

balmy condor
#

I'd have to count how many I have

shrewd night
#

Twenry

#

Seven

final saffron
#

yes @shrewd night think that's a too low number? :<

balmy condor
#

I run uh.... 26 I think, but two of them are like mount binds

warm drift
#

i have like 48

shrewd night
final saffron
#

feel like only pvpers would have close to 50, for all the modifiers

drifting cloud
#

koffing probably has 27 aswell, without the 20

shrewd night
#

I would surprise myself if I have more than.. Idk.. 15

drifting cloud
#

I have like 22 just quickly counted

#

could do with a few more for sure

final saffron
#

are you one of the rogues never using Kidney and blind in m+ koffing? peepochrist or worse clicking them.. monkaW

balmy condor
#

zempai clicks his way to CE every tier

shrewd night
#

Im the kind of rogue that doesnt really care for pushing so its all BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR in keys.

final saffron
#

hahah, if you aren't pushing then I guess it doesn't matter

warm drift
#

i have 10 shift modifier or so for focus and stuff. i barely use them anymore but playing since wrath like this so 😄

shrewd night
#

With that said, I have them bound, but I just consciously aint using them.

#

Last thing I used blind on was the little shitters on nzoth

balmy condor
#

can confirm, was the little shitter on nzoth

shrewd night
#

Last thing I used kidney on was uuuh, big boi on azhara

drifting cloud
#

you didnt kidney the tumors? 😦

balmy condor
#

or the hive darters

shrewd night
#

..Good point

#

I take that back

#

Tumors got kidneyd, FUCK DARTERS YOLO

drifting cloud
#

ye nobody has time to kidney darters

#

thats what the cns dk is there for

shrewd night
#

Was legit progging as outlaw on hivemind, after prog it was kinda whatever

final saffron
#

I mean, "Prey on the weak" is a pretty nice talent for raids :d

shrewd night
#

We never died to darters, more like ravager

final saffron
#

btw I never got any response for MP vs BS with higher ilvs/secondary stats, thoughts about that? peepostudy

lunar wave
#

How’s the new ability?

balmy condor
#

well the sim was up to rank 15 conduits

#

higher stats will probably swing in the way of mp

shrewd night
#

I mean... The sim is based on reference gear. It can swing either way depending on gearing choices.

balmy condor
#

exactly

#

@lunar wave feelycraft says worse than bonespike, sims don't exist yet

shrewd night
#

Besides, still two months with adjustments coming our way sooo

final saffron
#

ye so atm it seems like going haste+mastery would be really nice with the MP build ^^

balmy condor
#

stat plots showing mastery to be our worst stat btw

lunar wave
#

Damn feelycraft

shrewd night
#

Feelycraft can go in the same direction as weebs.

final saffron
#

"Prioritize Haste, other stats seem close" thought they were all really close

warm drift
#

vers was pretty high right?

balmy condor
#

yeh they're close

#

but close still has a worst

#

and that worst is still mastery

fallow otter
#

Double slapper hive no kidneys allowed

balmy condor
#

it was basically haste > crit = vers > mast

#

but the difference between them is pretty small

final saffron
#

why vers, can't they just remove that stat already

balmy condor
#

auto damage, all damage buffing is good

#

multiplying all things

#

solid numerical increase

final saffron
#

ye but it's such a boring stat imo tinfoil_pepe

#

only good thing is that it makes the PvE set closer to the PvP set

balmy condor
#

our mastery is just as boring

#

but you were pretty excited about that right

#

;)

final saffron
#

not really, since it kinda makes the spec identity stronger

#

strong bleeds/poisons

balmy condor
final saffron
#

that's how I feel anyways :>

balmy condor
#

imo its just versatility affecting less things

final saffron
#

well that's one way to see it

balmy condor
#

crit gives combo points, haste gives energy

#

those actually change things

#

mastery and vers both don't change things

#

that's just how I see it though

#

spec identity and all that is definitely a valid reasoning

final saffron
#

yea for sure crit and haste affects the feel of gameplay more

#

haste also increases the rate the bleeds/poisons tick right?

balmy condor
#

correct

#

thats actually where the majority of energy gain comes from

#

the base increase to regen from haste ain't that great

final saffron
#

does it scale with the 10% increase from Vigor tho? or is the vigor 10% just applied seperatly on your base energy regen

balmy condor
#

the 10% is a multiplier

final saffron
#

so if you have haste enough for 120% base energy regen the vigor will make it 132% instead of just 130%

balmy condor
#

uh

final saffron
#

feel like I'm asking complicated questions :d

drifting cloud
#

youre just overthinking it 😛

balmy condor
#

it would be more accurate to say you have 10 energy regen per second *1.2 (which is 20% haste) * 1.1 (which is vigor)

#

but the end result is the same

final saffron
#

that answer sounds like it's not scaling with how much haste your got, that it only adds 10% of the base regen? This discussion is a bit confusing haha

balmy condor
#

10*1.2*1.1

#

is 12*1.1

#

same thing you did

final saffron
#

okay that made more sense ^^

balmy condor
#

just trying to make it clear

final saffron
#

ye good job Whispyr peophammer

balmy condor
#

you and me both friend

sturdy flume
#

What is our Leggo pick for Beta M+? Zoldyck's?

balmy condor
#

yep

sturdy flume
#

ok, thx

balmy condor
#

no problemo

final saffron
#

Master Assassin doesn't seem that bad either, but my usual problem is that the tank always pull next pack before combat drop kekw

balmy condor
#

problem with master assassin is that your first 6 globals in m+ are 3 garrotes and 3 bone spikes

final saffron
#

so then it would depend on how much of a nerf Bone spike gets monkahmm if any

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

even with a nerf it's probably very strong

final saffron
#

even so the tanking problem still persists so Zoldyck probably will always be better

balmy condor
#

its the only covenant that actually scales with targets

final saffron
#

imagine it getting reworked like the Venthyr one peophammer

#

anything could happen

balmy condor
#

I find it unlikely that we're getting any big changes after this

eternal salmon
#

problem with master assassin is that your first 6 globals in m+ are 3 garrotes and 3 bone spikes
@balmy condor not to care about overcapping cp, right?

final saffron
#

were still waiting on the sims with the new ability also, maybe will place mastery a bit higher as a stat weight pepe_ball

balmy condor
#

well you might see like 3x garrote bone bone finisher bone

#

but that kinda makes the problem even worse

#

Eya guys, im come back on retail since 2 Months, i ll be in a guildprogress for SL, i need some tips about optimisation on pre patch, if someguys want to said me it (Stats/gear opti and co)=

balmy condor
#

prepatch is meaningless

#

you would want to basically copy late EP gearing rules for raids

verbal mantle
#

you should focus on gearing as much as you can

balmy condor
#

yeah

verbal mantle
#

up your ilvl

balmy condor
#

there's no point in trying to optimize for prepatch

#

its only around for a month, and balance in general is going to go to shit

verbal mantle
#

this man is right

#

you'll have plenty of time to prove yourself when SL will be on

fallow otter
#

Pre patch event stuffs will get you normal raid gear ilvl

balmy condor
#

yeah

shrewd night
#

Optimization for pre patch

#

thats a new one

balmy condor
#

its not really

#

he's the 5th or 6th person in the last week or so

verbal mantle
#

he wants to be ready and wanted to know if it was possible to "start" now I guess

balmy condor
#

I mean

verbal mantle
#

but yeh, stats weight isnt concerning rn

balmy condor
#

desire to be optimal all the time

#

is respectable

verbal mantle
#

indeed

crimson palm
#

gotta get those rank 1s in prepatch

shrewd night
#

he wants to be ready and wanted to know if it was possible to "start" now I guess

#

I mean

#

Technically it is

#

Just collect all the gear

verbal mantle
#

haha yeh, spam M+, profit

crimson palm
#

buy a 12/12 M NYA boost so u can gear easily

#

i can assist u in that kekchamp kekchamp

balmy condor
#

alliance weirdChamp

#

but @vital haven though Ahegao

radiant sorrel
#

What changed with Celerity legendary? I thought it was a good pick up in the pins for each spec, did they change slice n dice being baseline or am I going crazy?

balmy condor
#

slice and dice has always been baseline

#

they just changed it to not work outside of outlaw

#

as intended

radiant sorrel
#

Lame

#

And ah alright I wasn’t sure if it was or not Vaseline

#

Baseline*

balmy condor
#

yep yep

#

all 3 specs have it baseline

#

sin has a rank2 version with 20% extra attack speed on it compared to the other specs

low girder
#

Does that work yet?

balmy condor
#

I believe so

low girder
#

Yay

radiant sorrel
#

So is it something you should try to have 100% uptime on? Probably a dumb question but better safe then sorry

balmy condor
#

yep

radiant sorrel
#

Alright, super excited to play rogue; making the move from monk and loving Sin rogue

balmy condor
#

welcome welcome

verbal mantle
#

welcome aboard mate

balmy condor
#

everything the light touches is our kingdom

#

but you see the darkness over that way?

#

we don't go there

verbal mantle
crimson palm
#

u mean fel hammer

balmy condor
#

I prefer felling trees with an axe

radiant sorrel
#

I’m playing around with sub on the rogue I’m leveling and I just don’t like it

#

Feels so weird to play to me

balmy condor
#

the spec is fine

#

its the channel that's omega painful

#

its 85% demon hunter rerollers thinking they're gigabrain

radiant sorrel
#

Ew demon hunters

verbal mantle
#

problem is just the channel yeh, it's the best spec to lvl your char

radiant sorrel
#

I’m having lots of fun leveling as sin, I also enjoy dueling with it as I’m leveling with a friend so we’ll duel to decide whether or not we stay up and keep leveling or stop lol

balmy condor
#

lmao

verbal mantle
#

rofl nice

radiant sorrel
#

We both hate leveling to 120

#

The 100% xp is great but 120 is just so painful

balmy condor
#

I don't sleep until I hit max usually on expac launches

verbal mantle
#

I don't sleep
fixed kekw

radiant sorrel
#

Oh I’m hype as hell for SL I requested off the entire week of release

balmy condor
#

yeah okay dadsen but he's the new guy, ease him into it

quasi spoke
#

@verbal mantle @balmy condor im actually 478 ilevel

verbal mantle
#

hahah

radiant sorrel
#

I work overnights, sleep isn’t my friend

verbal mantle
#

thats pretty good Zazu

quasi spoke
#

is enough

#

for pre patch

balmy condor
#

yeah that's fine

quasi spoke
#

and scalling ?

balmy condor
#

scaling monkaW

verbal mantle
#

yeh it's good

balmy condor
#

we don't use that word

verbal mantle
#

no scaling talks tho

#

sorry

#

lmao

quasi spoke
#

xdddddddddddddd

balmy condor
#

scaling is a no no word

quasi spoke
#

I should pressure on versa?

balmy condor
#

just keep stacking haste

#

haste and item level and you'll be fine

radiant sorrel
#

Haste until your daggers fly out of your hands like you have butter fingers

quasi spoke
#

on pve im atm with 34% haste/31% crit/11%versa

balmy condor
#

oh yikes

#

you're already playing prepatch

quasi spoke
#

and somelike 28% mastery

#

or 29

#

i cant find informations about rogue pre patch

#

idk

balmy condor
#

that's cause there is none

verbal mantle
#

you dont need

#

it

balmy condor
#

cause no one cares about prepatch

#

and its not worth the time theorycrafting

#

I ran sims for people last week

radiant sorrel
#

Prepatch is the same as your parents sticking you in front of the tv as a child

balmy condor
#

and I'm not getting that hour of my life back

quasi spoke
#

my guild (progress guild sl) want to play pre patch for see the roster

radiant sorrel
#

It distracts you until dinners ready

balmy condor
#

that's fine

#

you can see the roster

quasi spoke
#

so i need to being rdy for pre patch

balmy condor
#

no you don't

verbal mantle
#

I just hope your staff wont take permanent decision out of that
cause it's kinda irrelevant af

balmy condor
#

prepatch is an unbalanced nightmare

quasi spoke
#

yep

balmy condor
#

if you're looking at dps numbers

verbal mantle
#

exactly, no point at all

balmy condor
#

you're hard trolling

#

just use what you have now

radiant sorrel
#

Prepatch offers gear pretty sure, if you wanna play sin rogue in SL, just practice rotations and get the class down pact to the best of your knowledge

#

Then continue to steadily improve until release

balmy condor
#

and be fine

#

he's already geared

quasi spoke
#

im fine with my rogue, i main since since vanilla

#

it

#

but i was on classic for so long time

#

back to retail since 2 months

radiant sorrel
#

The only thing any guild should be worried about in prepatch and changes, is if a player understands the basics of their class going into the expansion

#

Imo

balmy condor
#

yeah basically

quasi spoke
#

ye ure right

#

without corruptions in mythic raid

#

with 470 ilevel

#

i was 80k dps

#

60k/80k

#

pulling 100k

#

assa rog is the better spe for pre patch right ?

#

didnt noticed what is nerf or not

balmy condor
#

who knows

verbal mantle
#

I think you should read wowhead, rogue section

balmy condor
#

definitely not

sullen fossil
#

The better spec is the one that makes you enjoy the game

verbal mantle
balmy condor
#

better spec is also the one you have azerite for

quasi spoke
#

i ve boe r2

balmy condor
#

you mean bote?

#

balmy condor
#

blood of the enemy is bote :)

#

xd

outer estuary
#

so, how does the new venthyr ability seem

balmy condor
#

no sims yet

#

but first impression is worse than bone spike

outer estuary
#

do we have a conduit for it already?

#

or is sthat WIP

balmy condor
#

wip I think

#

I haven't seen a conduit yet

#

but I don't have beta so I'm just the messenger

outer estuary
#

also maybe im confused but i cant reactivate when i have 25 stacks

#

ability just glows

#

cant press anything and have to relog so its usable

balmy condor
#

wouldn't surprise me if its bugged

sturdy flume
#

@outer estuary had the same problem when I tried it on a newly created rogue, had to join the Covenant and get the ability through their quests for it to work properly

outer estuary
#

hm

#

weird

balmy condor
#

I guess I also should mention that people have had problems with rogues that have already existed

#

making a new character seems to fix a lot of bugs currently out there

wind wyvern
#

Guys i want to ask you something. I want to play revendreth in shadowlands. With the recent changes, do you think that revendreth is good choise for pve? Or still behind maldraxxus?

sturdy flume
#

the answer for that question should still be on screen,

no sims yet
but first impression is worse than bone spike

halcyon roost
#

I haven't seen a conduit yet
The venthyr conduit on beta atm is still for slaughter peeposhrug

full bear
#

That new Venthyr ability is kinky AF though

warm star
#

all will depend on the conduit

full bear
#

More as in

warm star
#

The ability without the conduit cannot be discussed

ah anima powers.. ffs

balmy condor
#

Lmao

#

sick scarab
#

i belived new talents LOL

warm star
#

was thinking, that's torghast oO

sick scarab
#

and damned blizz.. night fae leather armour sucks too much

#

but i want sepsis to be bis

#

! 😛

full bear
#

Sepsis seems really good for Sub though

sick scarab
#

imho so assa also i mean

#

garrote refresh etc etc

#

sub will get nerfed

#

blizz style

full bear
#

Think it's too clunky to be used with Sin

sick scarab
#

why ?

#

it fits well oiwht assa signature stuff

#

empower garrote more often

#

and master assassitn also

full bear
#

Snapshotting garrote is not really useful when you are overlapping with an already snapshotted garrote

amber quail
#

mind that in SL no more SS...empower garrote is not so powerfull

full bear
#

Oh, that's gone?

sick scarab
#

SS from azxerite yes

#

we have subterfuge on talen

full bear
#

Isn't that a tale- yes I was just about to say, that's subterfuge

amber quail
#

in SlL we haven't azerite treits

full bear
#

Also, to come back to your master assassin point, I get why it is useful for that

#

But the problem is that MA and Subterfuge share the same talent row

sick scarab
#

legendary

#

master asassing

#

and gg

#

subterfuge from talen, master assassing from legendary item

balmy condor
#

What’s happening in my good sin channel

full bear
#

Wait does that mean that MA and the legendary stack

sick scarab
#

imho is good.. it is bone spike that is nonsense

amber quail
#

true

balmy condor
#

Ma and the legendary stack

#

But theres no point

sick scarab
#

and will get nerf by blizz ofc

full bear
#

I was just about to say

#

So if that legendary turns out to be good you go Subterfuge

sick scarab
#

legendary is good

balmy condor
#

You go subterfuge regardless

sick scarab
#

so subterfure

full bear
#

When you do not have it you go MA

sick scarab
#

100%

balmy condor
#

No

#

You always go subterfuge in shadowlands atm

amber quail
#

talents 50% x 3sec-lego 100% 5sec

sick scarab
#

yep and for that i think spesis fit well with assa

full bear
#

Man I do love it that we get a lot of versatility in the talent tree for sin- oh wait

sick scarab
#

blizz have to tune numbers

balmy condor
#

MP and BS are close with max conduits

#

EP sims higher if you force apm

amber quail
#

i pref to play subterfuge cause the 3 sec stealth action that mean silence on 3 mobs and multiple ambush for fast combo at start

#

feelgood for me amb-g-amb-envenom

#

usuallly in leveling mobs die

#

or A-G-A-R-ongoing

#

in leveling mobs die faster

#

i like subterfuge

full bear
#

I played throug bfa entirely with subterfuge

balmy condor
#

Yikes

amber quail
#

me too and also in beta

#

is flexible for assa

#

i play also ironwire to extend silence on caster mobs

#

feell goo for me

outer lotus
#

Whispyr are you saying 130% crit isnt better than 100% crit Weirdchamp

We need more crit!

winter gale
#

Guys I just read about Flagellation Venthyr thingie. Is it changing anything in terms of which spec is now better or which covenant are we going for?

delicate bone
#

nope

#

too soon to telll

winter gale
#

So Sub/Maldraxxus is still no1 at this point?

delicate bone
#

correct

#

Flag has not conduits atm

#

so were not sure if itll get stonger with them or what

winter gale

nimble hill
#

Wasn't Slaughter shaping up to scale really well?

low girder
#

decent enough, but never beat bone spike even on ST

nimble hill
#

seems Bone Spike is absolutely bonkers

#

my buddy who is playing DK in Shadowlands keeps giving me crap about how strong SBS is lmfao

#

but Death's Due is a thing

low girder
#

it got smacked a bit this round

#

death's due that is

nimble hill
#

thats what it looked like in the blue post

low girder
#

there are other abilities for some classes that are stronger on ST than bone spike is, it's just also good in many different situations

#

the fracture certainly doesn't help

sturdy flume
#

On Beta M+ AoE, where is SnD in our priority list? After Rupturing everything?

strange python
jolly comet
#

@sturdy flume you need to forget about rupture and come over to SnDeesus. All your combo points will be used to refresh SnD. Nothing else matters.

Everybody talking flagg and sbs and Im here still loving sepsis and MA leggo

drowsy warren
#

You play what you enjoy, don’t let others tell you otherwise

drifting light
#

Definately, the fairy rogue theme is killing me tho

drowsy warren
#

You can choose to transmog your armor to not look like a fairy in that case

final saffron
#

can't transmog the zone kekw

drowsy warren
#

Role play as you are killing the creatures in that zone cuz you hate them xD

final saffron
#

bastion was the shitty one with combo point thingy?

nimble hill
#

Yeah, Echoing Reprimand

drifting light
#

Lol

final saffron
#

really hoping for a rework there tbh, that one is needed more than the rework they did on Venthyr

#

since the other ability feels like it would be fine with some numbers tuning

sand lion
#

is anyone else getting game crashes with venthyr flagellation in torghast?

strange python
#

hi friendos. is m+ available right when SLands launches or does it start when raid starts

frosty burrow
#

Becomes available when raid starts

strange python
#

Got it. So best way to gear up pre-raid/m+ is just run mythic dungeons?

sturdy flume
#

@jolly comet Hmm, hadn't considered that, thanks 🙂

fleet whale
#

Blizzard replacing slaughter is justified. It did way too little to actually improve the ability it's supposed to replace (ambush)

#

If you want to see ability replacements done right, look at Death's Due for DK's or Condemn for warriors

vague rock
#

what is assa ST opener now?
garrotex2 > ambush > rupture, > mfd > snd > vendetta > shiv ?

frigid kestrel
#

!guide

vague rock
#

i mean in sl

frigid kestrel
#

Hmmm not in any of the guides

#

Ye, I know

#

But I don’t know the answer to your question so I was digging in the guides to see an update

vestal wren
#

the rotation barely changes in sl

#

the main change is that you keep slice and dice up

#

and that toxic blade is now shiv

vague rock
#

i know the rotation just not sure about best opener

frigid kestrel
#

Wait you took MFD?

#

Is that a thing?

vague rock
#

i took mfd just to get snd up faster

vestal wren
#

mfd does sim better in m+

#

for outlaw/sin

vague rock
#

and i am using the new venthyr cov thing so it helps

vestal wren
#

sub is the only spec that has a different pick in the row with ds

frigid kestrel
#

Ahhh M+

vague rock
#

but this is for a pure st situation opening from stealth i am interested in

#

i guess it's better to do garrote,ambush,garrote,rupture, vendetta,shiv, mutilate, snd ?

tender folio
#

Yay Venthyr aint trash anymore :3

crisp sluice
#

Are there any active spreadsheets/ pins etc. Similar to how raz did it with the exsanguinate build to track current state of sin and BiS for SL?

#

Or are we not starting that yet since PP hasn't dropped yet and tuning still occurring

delicate bone
#

this doesnt necessarily show BiS but you can go through it and target gear if you want

#

obv things are subject to change

#

since its beta

crisp sluice
#

Cool thanks for the info brotha

#

Ya for sure

delicate bone
#

no problem

surreal solar
#

still sad gluttonous spike isnt agi anymore

ripe cairn
#

Heeey im pretty new to wow and im sorry if this is answered anywhere already buuut im lvl 96 right now and in every single dungeon i do 2nd least damage. The only figts i can somewhat keep up in damage are longer ones because of the bleeds obviously. Is this normal or am i maybe doing something wrong 😅

balmy condor
#

probably fine

#

leveling isn't balanced at all

#

so trying to compare is pretty futile

ripe cairn
#

hmm okay. soo if this would happen at maxlvl i should be concerned but right now its okay?

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

I wouldn't worry about it

ripe cairn
#

ooh okay alright

#

thank you

balmy condor
#

tanks are kinda crazy when leveling

#

and with how much of a stomp leveling dungeons are, you don't really have time to ramp

#

they probably also have heirlooms equipped, so their gear is just strictly better

drowsy warren
#

The game is not balanced welll in low levels

#

You can have mage spam 1 ability and he top damage

noble hawk
#

Arcane Mage is strong while levelling, isn't it?

obtuse anvil
#

Confirmed

#

AE all day

ripe cairn
#

also is monk really strong in low lvls? because my friend (2nd most dmg in the pic) has been doing alot more damage since lvl 1 pretty much

balmy condor
#

don't worry bout him, monks can't keep up in endgame

obtuse anvil
#

Yeah

ripe cairn
#

hah okay

#

but i enjoy assasination rogue alot tbh

balmy condor
#

yeah its a bit painful to level open world but its pretty fun

noble hawk
#

yeah its a bit painful to level open world but its pretty fun
Why is that?

balmy condor
#

because dot leveling is slow

#

sub can kill mobs in 3-4 globals

#

sin has to wait for stuff to tick

#

and doesn't have any energy regen

#

so it just kinda sits there and waits

distant steeple
#

Are you just fighting one thing at a time?

strange python
#

push snd

balmy condor
#

guys he's leveling on live

vestal wren
#

sub can kill mobs in 3-4 globals
that never stopped anyone from playing sin while leveling

#

and tbh its fine to play whatever

balmy condor
#

still objectively slower as sin

noble hawk
#

How easy would you all say is it to pick up assassination?

balmy condor
#

super easy

ripe cairn
#

now that im reading this im realising im not doing anything wrong and my problems are normal xD

balmy condor
#

sin is a really simple spec

drowsy warren
#

Keep bleeds up and don’t overcap on combo points is the full guide

balmy condor
#

yeah basically

noble hawk
#

Bleeds? Well, I definitely should look over the spec tomorrow again xD

#

I did think he was all about keeping up poisons D:

balmy condor
#

poisons are afk

#

you hit them, they're poisoned

#

gg done

noble hawk
#

Well, that's what I expected

#

xD

#

Well, if you say it's easy then I should try tomorrow, thank you :3

distant steeple
#

subterfuge garrote x3 on 3 target pulls, rupture everything, and just focus on that for a bit. When you get that down you can start doing other tricks

#

But that should be a massive dps gain for you

final saffron
#

tbh we haven't seen what talents and stuff he uses, that could make a big difference especially in dungeons :d

#

also you won't optimize as well as a new player I guess

distant steeple
#

Right, it’s why I think as a new player it’s better to focus on learning one or two skills at a time before moving on

#

Like learning how to do an opener on a pack of three mobs

final saffron
#

yupyup!

#

anyone got a streamer that consistently streams sin rogue on beta? @balmy condor I heard you streamed sometimes peepo

balmy condor
#

yeah but no beta HAPPY

#

selithan streams

#

but we've both been doing poe

#

cause shadowlands waiting room

final saffron
#

aww pepehands well people seems to enjoy PoE atleast

#

I never was able to get into it

balmy condor
#

big learning curve yeah

#

I would stream my sim adventures

#

but that's not really good content lmao

frigid kestrel
#

Is he still streaming beta? Seen a lot of path of the exile from him lately

balmy condor
#

every now and then yeah

#

its late into the beta at this point

#

lot of people don't want to burn out, etc

final saffron
#

the content is secondary to the streamer Whispyr, as long as you're entertaining it doesn't matter what you do ez

balmy condor
#

well I'm definitely not entertaining ez

final saffron
#

most people streaming beta and stuff are so monotone and boring tbh :d

#

gotta have some energy! pogchamp

knotty storm
#

does venemous wounds work with bone spike?

balmy condor
#

does that require sleeping?

#

no

#

does not

final saffron
#

depends on how many drugs you take PepeFull

frigid kestrel
#

<—— wins the competition for most boring streamer in the history of streaming. I even have a robot speak for anyone that dares try to engage me in chat because I forget to look at the shit.

balmy condor
#

lmao

final saffron
#

that's some next level of lazy

frigid kestrel
#

Lazy, no I just be focused in on what I’m playing

final saffron
#

what do you usually play when streaming?

frigid kestrel
#

WoW, Smite, MHW, and Muse Dash Mostly

final saffron
#

only know half of those games peepostudy

frigid kestrel
#

All of which I’m shit at, just a lot less shit at WoW. You can’t be complete dog shit when you played the same class/spec for over 12 years

balmy condor
#

hate to be the fun police, but we're getting a little far from sin

#

:)

verbal mantle
frigid kestrel
#

O no I brought it back, I’m a genius

verbal mantle
#

swamp

knotty storm
#

is bone spike increased by sin mastery?

final saffron
#

ahh .. so how about that new Venthyr ability right?... ha ha

balmy condor
#

no it is not

knotty storm
#

tyty

frigid kestrel
#

The replacement for Slaughter is what you are thinking about I believe

balmy condor
#

ye

#

i don't like it

frigid kestrel
#

Neither do i

balmy condor
#

but i guess it'll be okay

knotty storm
#

i do

final saffron
#

I kinda wish Venthyr one was best because they have the coolest cloaks :I

#

oh why lord did they have to bind the abilities to covenants peepochrist

balmy condor
#

ye sadly if you want to do m+ you're stuck with bone spike

final saffron
#

really shit for players who actually wants do to all the aspects of the game like me

balmy condor
#

well

#

right now at least

#

seems like bone spike is good for everything

final saffron
#

even tho bonespike seems decent for all content

balmy condor
#

so you're in luck

final saffron
#

still 1 month + to go

balmy condor
#

I don't ever go into the pvp land, but I assume they aren't happy about the new slaughter stuff

final saffron
#

it actually seemed really op for PvP tho

balmy condor
#

ye idk

#

its decent enough in raids

#

and meh in m+

#

and that's really what I care about

final saffron
#

well you gonna get a bit more forced into raiding now with the currents changes

#

if you actually care about BiS that is

balmy condor
#

I mean, I do raid

golden basalt
#

From what ive heard its not really impactful in pvp as its hard to play around with your “go”+ that games on beta are much shorter than live so games end before you have your CPs spent:/

#

Nahj did some 3s played around with it recently and was not very impressed

balmy condor
#

that's what I was expecting tbh

final saffron
#

well the damage tuning haven't happened yet tho?

balmy condor
#

sure

final saffron
#

ret pallies rape people atm what I've seen

golden basalt
#

It’s more of a mechanical issue than numbers

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

the numbers might force it in

#

but the core idea is already pretty shoddy

#

its basically just razer coral

#

click, do damage, click again, get stat

golden basalt
#

hard to pull of efficiently when SBS is so easy to use + door of shadows is MUCH worse than fleshcraft in pvp

final saffron
#

well rogues don't really need door of shadows imo

#

may be good in some situations but fleshcraft seems objectively stronger

golden basalt
#

Pretty much walk as fast as it takes to cast door

final saffron
#

haha, well there is a soulbind that makes it remove roots which could be nice ^^

ripe cairn
#

wait guys i was just reading the chat from earlier..do i garrote 3 times? but on 3 different mobs right? or does it work on the sameone 3 times too

wind totem
#

do we have an idea on how the different specs compare for ST raid fights? I'm not talking sims just general idea.

final saffron
#

only 1 garrote per target, it doesn't stack

ripe cairn
#

okayokay. but i also havent realised i can use it 3 times like that with the talent im stupid

final saffron
#

also make sure all the targets you garrote actually get poisoned even tho I guess fan of knives takes care of that either way :d

balmy condor
#

@wind totem sub > sin > outlaw

wind totem
#

I dislike that answer i have an unnatural hate for sub. Guess I'm sticking to sin in SL too. Thanks for the answer.

narrow lion
#

!wa

prisma monolithBOT
final saffron
#

Sub used to be a fun spec

#

don't remember when they removed Hemo but that's the day Sub died

balmy condor
#

that was legion prepatch

final saffron
#

was it before or after it became a shadow damage meme spec?

balmy condor
#

before

#

legion was class reworks

final saffron
#

sounds about right

fleet whale
#

well nightblade is gone in SL

#

and rupture is back for sub

balmy condor
#

and slice and dice too

#

its basically wod sub rogue

fleet whale
#

well it doesn't have the whole multistrike bleed thing

low girder
frigid kestrel
#

Sooo does anyone know how exactly this trinket works? Like does it stack off of ability or ability damage (meaning can bleed/poison ticks affect the proc count)?

balmy condor
#

its casts

#

ticks don't work

frigid kestrel
#

Meh

#

Not what I wanted to hear

#

Back to lurking

#

Also thanks

fleet whale
#

trinket sims will be done eventually

balmy condor
#

ye

#

just waiting on tuning

#

until we do all that stuff

fleet whale
#

overall i like the trinket design though in the new raid

#

hopefully they are decent, and it's not like early bfa where you only wanted dungeon trinkets

balmy condor
#

yeah I do as well

fleet whale
#

uldir had some shit trinkets

strange python
#

on those assasination wa do we choose one or download all 5

low girder

the packs on the bot?

Yep yep

They’re just packs from different people

you have your own?

It’s soothing

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.

low girder
balmy condor
#

do we stream poe after the servers come back up?

#

stats are hilarious to me

#

that command gets me

#

every single time

#

but then again, it also makes people use stat weights

#

without understanding them

#

and that's a little sketchy

leaden scarab
#

potion of unbridled fury still the go to?

balmy condor
#

focused resolve for some people in single target

verbal mantle
#

you can sim it too

balmy condor
#

but unbridled is usually fine

#

putting that pastebin at the end of an advanced sim will compare food + potions

leaden scarab
#

thanks!

balmy condor
#

np

leaden scarab
#

is it worth taking crimson tempest on wrathion on normal or heroic? idk if its part of the exsang build, wowhead doesnt say

balmy condor
#

you take CT over pb on single target with enough haste

#

If you don't have enough haste, I wouldn't bother tbh

leaden scarab
#

my haste is only 24% and multiple sims tell me go crit build with TB. maybe i shouldnt even worry about it since prepatch is soon.

balmy condor
#

oh

#

yeah

#

24% is nothing

#

that's not enough to run exsang most likely either

leaden scarab
#

lol. that answers that then

balmy condor
#

which seems to be what you're seeing

#

what corruptions you got atm?

#

is it crit corruptions?

leaden scarab
#

i just came back like a month ago. and decided to main rogue a couple of weeks ago. so i only have like, 2 things

crude kelp
#

Bit of a strange question. I seem to have forgotten something. Had pre patch been announced?

leaden scarab
#

sadly not sir albert

balmy condor
#

no announce

#

but its either this week, or the week after

#

most people think the week after

crude kelp
#

Thanks. I had this weird feeling it was this week. I guess not.

leaden scarab
#

1 expedient II, 1 expedient I, 1 Mind flay thing, and mastery increase from all sources by 12%

balmy condor
#

aha

#

yeah

#

so you're like almost getting to the point where exsang is viable

#

but just really undergeared

crude kelp
#

Another question. Do we think M+ season will end on pre patch? I need 3 more keys for KSM, but I'm AFK until the 3rd 😩

balmy condor
#

yep

#

KSM is before release of 9.0

#

prepatch is 9.0

#

so it'll go away

crude kelp
#

That hurts

balmy condor
#

pray that prepatch is the 6th, then get the 3 keys done that week

crude kelp
#

Doubtful.... Maybe if I find a lamp.

#

With a Robin Williams voice actor in it

balmy condor
#

no time?

low girder
#

for your thinking that patch would've been this week, that was the initial guess a while back right after we got the first afterlives, since it was the first tuesday after they'd all be out

#

just didn't work out that way

balmy condor
#

ye

inner tinsel
#

Any beta testers that can confirm that assassination is on pair with sub?

#

i want to be viable, but wanna stay assa

balmy condor
#

its viable in raids

#

but sub is definitely ahead

inner tinsel
#

what about mythics?

balmy condor
#

sin's the worst spec atm

inner tinsel
#

out of rogue or in general? xD

balmy condor
#

out of rogue

#

I'm sure there's worse out there

inner tinsel
#

ah i see. thanks 🙂

balmy condor
#

sub and outlaw both do more damage and have less of a reliance on vanish

#

outlaw has gouge

#

so it remains outlaw m+ meta

quaint sequoia
#

if they would bring back WoD combat I would happily play it in m+

inner tinsel
#

never played sub, might be switching when prepatch launches

#

hope it's not that difficult of a spec

low girder
#

it's difficulty is overstated

#

imo

balmy condor
#

yeah

inner tinsel
#

Good to hear

vague rock
#

assa is harder than sub because you can actually get bored doing nothing

quaint sequoia
#

lol

fallow otter

so it remains outlaw m+ meta

#

Are you haste build?

glad tartan

I have more haste then crit atm so yes
but what is better haste build or crit

balmy condor

if you have less than 60% haste, run memory as a minor
