is there a way to make it sideways if you know what I mean

#

i see it's going up and i would prefer it going sideways

stoic needle
#

Yeah. Sorry I don't know how to make menus or it would be easier

tawdry pulsar
#

also it appears CT is permanently up

stoic needle
#

One sec

balmy condor
#

there's a grow section

#

specifically for that

stoic needle
#

Yes that

tawdry pulsar
#

this just appears

balmy condor
#

oh god this is just free form auto-cloning

stoic needle
#

I thought I fixed that, let me push that update again

balmy condor
#

oh jeez

stoic needle
#

No I removed the auto cloning !

#

It's only for your target now

balmy condor
#

then you haven't updated XD

tawdry pulsar
#

also there's no text for the duration

feral basin
#

yo @balmy condor ty again for the google docs btw

balmy condor
feral basin
#

lot of work gone into it

balmy condor
#

jesus

fallow solar
#

Which was is that looks sick

balmy condor
#

its oshosi's

#

he linked it like 10 minutes ago

#

if you scroll up

#

I'm roasting it for clutter atm

tawdry pulsar
#

it appears the SND duration doesn't show up until you apply rupture or garrote?

#

it's weird

fallow solar
#

Yonk

balmy condor
#

bruh idk how you even deal with that man

#

this is head-ache territory

fallow solar
#

Enlarged pandemic numbers are good tho

tawdry pulsar
#

how do you get those numbers lol mine are baked into the icon

stoic needle
#

Idk why that version is auto cloning, I removed that like 3 versions ago

#

Gimme a second

tawdry pulsar
#

i think using the grow genuinely fucked it

balmy condor
#

why does this exist

tawdry pulsar
#

yeah when i chose grow - left

#

it fucks it up lol

balmy condor
#

oh I guess you're forcing it only to trigger on 1

#

I guess

#

sure

stoic needle
#

For the pandemic. It was triggering all the time otherwise

balmy condor
#

wait really?

stoic needle
#

Yeah I dunno

#

That was the only way I could get it to only trigger when the debuff was up

tawdry pulsar
#

lmk when u have the fixed version for the CT icon to go away

#

unless u can DM me your fixed one if u can export it

balmy condor
#

this should be the same thing

stoic needle
#

Any triggers made them stay on all the time

balmy condor
#

well yeh, then unload if out of combat

stoic needle
#

But what if you vanish and you want to keep track of your dots monkahmm

balmy condor
#

I handle that through conditions

tawdry pulsar
#

wait can't I fix the CT icon if just set it to only load in cb?

balmy condor
#

but yours works fine too

stoic needle
#

delete the one you have and just pull the new one from this page

tawdry pulsar
#

alright

balmy condor
#

I gotta say though

#

your visuals are much cleaner than mine

stoic needle
#

If you want to change the direction, choose growth direction centered horizontal

tawdry pulsar
#

is it normal when i close out on WA options it still uses like 80MB addon memory when I hover over the question mark it says "WeakAuraOptions" - 60mb etc

stoic needle
#

yes XD

tawdry pulsar
#

and a /reload fixes it

balmy condor
#

yeah that's normal

#

60mb won't impact your fps at all

stoic needle
#

if you change it to horizontal, change text 1 in the display tab to frame's outer bottom or top

tawdry pulsar
stoic needle
#

also ty whisp. visuals is what i focus on even if the implementation can be jank someitmes

#

wekauras loads every single weakaura into memory when you open the options even if they aren't being loaded normally

balmy condor
#

wow

stoic needle
#

it's so annoying

balmy condor
#

under 100 MB memory

#

that's insane

quasi ledge
#

WeakAuraOptions is basically up after you open the WA interface until you reload/log off, doesn't effect anything

stoic needle
tawdry pulsar
#

jesus

#

then again I have like 8 addons

balmy condor
#

yeah I'm at 600 with TSM on

stoic needle
#

fucking TSM i swear to god

weak copper
#

yo assassins

#

so any of you went all in on the spec yet? (max lvl legendary etc)

#

and what are you pumping

balmy condor
#

I turned off all my addons out of curiosity on the fps impact

tawdry pulsar
#

my PC is sorta ancient

balmy condor
#

removing 600 mb of addon usage made my fps in raid go from 141, to 138

#

well, other way around

#

I had 138 with addons

tawdry pulsar
#

I get like 29 fps in a raid

balmy condor
#

141 without

tawdry pulsar
#

:D

balmy condor
#

love me some sick 3 whole fps

tawdry pulsar
#

had the same PC since cata

stoic needle
#

Huh

#

I just realized I've been limiting my fps to 60

balmy condor
#

nathria is like

#

really optimized

tawdry pulsar
#

i've limited mine to 60.. but I never hit over 45

balmy condor
#

in comparison to a lot of previous raids

tawdry pulsar
#

so meh

stoic needle
#

Nathria's particles are kind of a shit show

#

Idk

tawdry pulsar
#

i get 38ish in any major city

balmy condor
#

like I usually get 95-105ish in nyalotha

#

but nathria I walked in day 1 with 150ish

#

was kinda nuts

tawdry pulsar
#

tbh if I increased my settings I might get more fps

#

since I run like 3 preset my gpu barely puts out any work

stoic needle
#

I just uncapped it and I have 80 in oribos right now

tawdry pulsar
balmy condor
#

yeh I'm standing in night fae hall atm with maxed settings and getting 104

tawdry pulsar
#

my clock speed is hella low

balmy condor
#

pretty sick

#

wait

#

385 mhz on your cpu

#

what

tawdry pulsar
#

no

#

that's my gpu

balmy condor
#

oh

#

small screenshot

#

yeah that's normal

#

wow is a cpu heavy game

#

your gpu is hard chillaxing

tawdry pulsar
#

yeah my cpu is like

#

almost 9 years old

#

sucks that wow runs off cpu more than gpu

balmy condor
#

I don't think wow even pushes my gpu to 10% usage

tawdry pulsar
#

i've got a measley

#

i5 3570k

#

i was using a gtx 760 but that died during legion so i swapped it out for a rx 570

stoic needle
#

Damn the night fae sanctum is hell on my fps

tawdry pulsar
#

what pisses me off is my game always crashes whenever i log out to switch to another character

balmy condor
#

if I stare straight at the skybox its like 125 fps, if I stare off into the distance it sinks to like 80

#

cause more things to load on 10 view distance

stoic needle
#

I have an AMD radeon rx 5600 xt and a ryzen 5 3600

tawdry pulsar
#

i'm not sure what cov to go

#

🤔

stoic needle
#

You can't go wrong as long as it's not venthyr pepehands

tawdry pulsar
#

i was orig gonna nf because you can get different soulshape animals

#

but i like the sound of necro shield and the sbs

stoic needle
balmy condor
#

yeh

pine mauve
#

do you guys think with recemt changes assa will be viable for pvp again?

balmy condor
#

it didn't really have much of an effect

quasi ledge
#

Assass is fine in PvP. You have decent constant pressure but get hard-countered a lot now (Pallys, Hunters and any Kyrian). Sub is always gonna be better though because you're gaining Sub burst and it's control at the same time

pine mauve
#

well, when you say any kyrian, they can remove bleeds once per 5 min, wouldnt call that massive counter

balmy condor
#

that's all your burst

pine mauve
#

if they remove reapply? or am i missing something

balmy condor
#

you're missing that the meta is you die in 10 seconds

#

how you gonna reapply from the grave

quasi ledge
#

It resets all your damage and reapplying all bleeds takes a long time when it's not your opener

#

Most of the time Paladins and Hunters are also Kyrian, so you get double fucked because they already countered Assass

#

And now Hunters can remove all your DoTs every 15 seconds

#

It's not fun

tawdry pulsar
#

@stoic needle good WA though 👍 i rarely use timers just to reduce screen clutter but these are alright

stoic needle
#

Tyvm peepoguns

balmy condor
#

definitely should have a nice of set timers to track all the maintenance stuff imo

stoic needle
#

If I can figure out how to make a menu I'll have a pretty solid pack going

tawdry pulsar
#

yeah I could never be bothered with those all-in-one WA with the energy bar, combo points etc

#

just not for me

stoic needle
#

Sameee

#

I'm a minimalist by nature I try to keep things simple

#

Especially in retail where there's a billion fucking particles everywhere and 3 mechanics you have to deal with every fight

#

Like my first nathria raid I did it with maximum graphics and when it got to lust phase on shriekwing and everyone popped all their cooldowns my computer almost crashed lmao

#

We had a full 30 player raid

iron orchid
#

I personnally created my own trackers for alacrity stacks and SnD, then changed my nameplate addon settings to correctly display remaining time on dots. Working fine for me

stoic needle
#

Yeah, I use nameplate tracking and one set of timers for my selected target, cuz nameplates can get kind of high up in the sky at certain angles on certain bosses

#

I used to have auto cloning on for every dot with the weakaura's with the unit name... That was a damn mess omegalul

#

I wish there were a way to make some nameplates go to the feet and some stay at the top of a target

#

Like alternating

#

That would be perfect

iron orchid
#

Just got MM altimor down with my guild and gotta admit that Zoldyck feels great

stoic needle
#

I just wish zoldyck had more visual feedback

#

Like some kind of glow effect when a mob is in execute range or something

#

It's kinda hard to tell it's working at times

#

Or extra blood/poison particles when you dot something in execute

fleet whale
#

i just use the mobs HP bar to tell me that lol

#

i have percents turned on

stoic needle
#

I have nameplates set to change colors when in the execute

#

But I want flashy particles! I want playing rogue to be cool! Lol

#

It's really a non-issue I'm just nitpicking

iron orchid
#

So FlaShY

stoic needle
#

Lmao

#

I figured out a way to make my weakauras for bleeds get covered in blood particles when they were in pandemic using the model function

#

But I don't know how to make menus to make it toggle-able so I didn't include it

tawdry pulsar
#

what's our best trinkets btw?

feral basin
#

ur WA u linked to they track it on all targets or just single target?

spice spire
#

!bis

prisma monolithBOT
stoic needle
#

Just single target

iron orchid
feral basin
tawdry pulsar
#

@iron orchid I see from that spreadsheet, the other trinket is from sire denathrius damn lol

iron orchid
#

yeah, pretty hard to get

tawdry pulsar
#

any other decent replacements?

#

until I get that one

stoic needle
#

Honestly like

#

You don't get to choose your trinkets

#

Its really frustrating

#

You just take what drops for you and sim what's best

#

For me the plaguefall Phial has been harder to get than dreadfire

#

I've traded away normal dreadfire and passed on them in the vault several times but never seen that motherfucking Phial the entire expansion

iron orchid
tawdry pulsar
#

Unlucky

iron orchid
#

chain from sludgefist also viable

tawdry pulsar
#

I see a lot of people running that inscrutable device trinket

toxic tusk
#

Normal Castle tonight.

tawdry pulsar
#

Just looks way too memey for me

iron orchid
#

You could also get toxin from necrotic wake or Infinitely divisible ooze, which are a bit worse, but still correct i guess

#

device looks great too

ionic smelt
#

only good for m+ in raids on 2nd use mostly giving mana too healer

stoic needle
#

That's not true

#

There is a weakaura you can use to predict the effect

ionic smelt
#

yes and im using it...

#

you basically cant press the item in last 35% of fight

stoic needle
#

That wasn't my experience when I had it

#

I only had a 184 for a few raids

ionic smelt
#

maybe some of the other guys can give us some enlightenement:)

stoic needle
#

I think the group you're in matters in the raid

balmy condor
#

device is great

storm onyx
fleet whale
#

device rarely actually gives mana or heals a random person in raid

#

it's really not simbait

pliant apex
#

are more ppl playing sin now?

native turtle
#

1 is more than 0 so yes technically

fleet whale
#

Peen still plays sin

stoic needle
feral basin
#

OK - so if i land on 4CP but i have no 1P generators available - Am i using finishing move on 4CP or wasting a CP just to get a 5CP finisher?

PLaying outlaw landing on 5 with D/S talent isnt to bad

balmy condor
#

you're finishing on 4

storm onyx
#

Generate if you are < 4, finisher on 4 and 5. You dont try to get 1 last cp, couse you can burn 3 cps if that mutilate crits. Thats a lot of energy wasted

#

Double crit. I mean

#

I see some rogues get that last cp by Fok on pvp though if they absolutely need a 5cp finisher at that moment

fleet whale
#

if you have garrote up and it needs to be refreshed though, you can use that to go from 4 to 5

pliant apex
#

is decanter an aoe trinket?

#

and below darkmoon voracity in st?

balmy condor
#

decanter is just an all around solid trinket

pliant apex
#

for some reason, im simming for 30 dps more with voracity

#

lame.

#

though the wowhead page lists it way below decanter, a 150 dps below lol

#

instead 150 plus, decant giving me -29

balmy condor
#

voracity is also a very good trinket

#

the difference is probably item level and gear related

pliant apex
#

oh i see

native turtle
#

Did you guys hear about the leak?? They are nerfing every spec that is performing better than assassination! It's our time to shine!

fleet whale
#

I mean, assassination has basically went two straight expansions of being the meta raiding spec for rogue

native turtle
#

pepehands Why can't we go back to that pepehands

pliant apex
#

ikr

#

wheres the leak

native turtle
#

Trade chat!

pliant apex
#

😦

fleet whale
#

lol he's making stuff up

pliant apex
#

oh man

fleet whale
#

also who knows maybe Sin will be good again next patch

pliant apex
#

i HATE sub and outlaw

storm onyx
#

Ahahah good one

pliant apex
#

the skill diff between sin and other two is mind boggling

#

i mean why would anyone play those over sin

native turtle
#

Yea I can see sin being better single target with more secondaries

pliant apex
#

so easy and straight forward, and fun, sin is

#

ONE mistake on sub and you fucked on parses in raid

native turtle
#

Just roll 5 on every Roll the Bones peepostudy

pliant apex
#

i just play sin , end of story

#

blue logs, not a lot of work, good enough for me

#

gm happy, im happy

stoic needle
#

first heroic with the new weapon tonight

#

gonna pump

native turtle
#

Parse 99 percentile or riot

stoic needle
#

lol my gear isn't good enough overall for that sadly

toxic tusk
#

Just finished normal shriekwing and pulled 3.1k. I'm happy with that!

good job

fallow otter
toxic tusk
#

Just normal.

#

I'm at 201, not really ready for much higher

fallow otter
#

Nice

toxic tusk
#

I was doing like 2.3k the other runs.

#

I think even just simple stuff like not wasting combo points/not using ambush every chance I get helped.

fallow solar
#

Do you guys think sim for sheet music trinket is accurate? It sims better than my lower ilvl hateful chain but I find it screws up a lot during some bosses

#

Never had a good trinket drop

strange python
#

it's shit

#

sims well, performs shit

#

maybe it would be sick if you have speed stat on every piece of gear and move around like a blue hedgehog

#

but otherwise it's shit

misty holly
#

I'm sad the tank just out damaged me in a +10. This never used to happen in bfa!

stoic needle
#

4.9k on huntsman. so close to 5k

stoic needle
devout temple
#

is assasssin good now

native turtle
#

"good" is a strong word

#

we don't use that word here

#

we prefer words like "acceptable" and "tolerable"

halcyon grail
#

"not the worst"

#

I believe thats still fury war.

stoic needle
#

Viable

misty holly
#

It's at least in the top 25.

balmy condor
#

Wait what

#

If we just keep getting 5-8% every month

#

By April we’ll be SLAMMING

#

The true sin scaling

#

What io you got

robust pine
#

fallow otter
#

Interesting

#

Im like 400 world

#

With 1.5k io 🤦‍♂️

misty holly
#

that is like #1 in the world assassination rogue

robust pine
#

But did you compleye your keys in sin?

fallow otter
#

Haha no... Im just comparing the levels

#

My rogue is my alt now, it only does a 14 a week, torg and when I'm bored some renown quests

#

@fallow otter whats your main now ?

fallow otter
#

prisma monolithBOT
open ingot
#

they buff assassin?

#

is it better other spec for solo target?

tawdry pawn
#

is there any streamer playing assa?

vestal wren
#

seliathan does in his torghast runs

tawdry pawn
#

well thats kinda meh xd

vestal wren
#

assassination isn't very powerfull outside of torghast, so its very hard to justify playing it

strange python
#

just found out you can cast garrotte out of stealth.

#

best rogue in the world right here.

#

ama.

vestal wren
#

the amount of players you have that play assassination is too low to have a lot of streamers.
And from this already super low number you probably would also want to have somone who plays at a higher level of play

tawdry pawn
#

I se

#

see

vestal wren
#

its possible that some players will play assassinaiton if the content is nerfed/farm status

#

mainly to get high allstar rankings

tawdry pawn
#

what buff would made assa good?

#

I feel like everything is hittind kinda low xD

vestal wren
#

the buff was enough to not make assassination the last spot on the wcl ranking

#

but it was not enough to make it a good pick

#

there are some niche use cases

#

but the pin sums this up quite well

fiery quarry
#

when i do a patchwerk sim it shows me that zoldyck does more dmg than doomblade. did something change or does the sim have problems with deciding when execute phase begins or something like that?

vestal wren
#

the legendary ranking depends on gear

#

!fuu

prisma monolithBOT
vestal wren
#

doomblade/zoldy is rly close the "outstanding" one on st would be dashing

tawdry pawn
#

with 2 leggos maybe assa will be good

vestal wren
#

maybe

#

i don't think you can make a lot of predictions about future tiers

#

Gonna try out a Sin build tonight. Simming 5.3k right now 😄

#

Still behind on Sub, but I've always like Sin more

#

So I'm just gonna give it a try

median mango
#

I swapped to nightfae and am at 13 renown now where all guides tell you to swap to dreamweaver for the double potency. However I sim almost a good bit higher with niya, am I missing something here or should I just trust my sims?

quasi ledge
#

I've always simmed higher with Niya and only 1 potency. Assass conduits are too shit to be worth dropping Niya for a 2nd one it seems

heady island
#

Same, still running Niya.

spice spire
#

Niya sims the best due to her soulbind trait. It’s just simply better than the second potency conduit for sin

#

At 25 she has a small jump and at 30, a huge one

median mango
#

Alright, thanks guys. 🙂

#

So the guides, e.g. wowhead and icy-veins are just wrong here?

#

Can someone boink the authors please? 😄

manic quartz
#

zoldyck or dashing for assa?

stoic needle
#

Zoldyck

silk wyvern
#

hows assassination going on

spice spire
silk wyvern
#

how can i counter tank dh and plates with sub

honest silo
#

My assass set is simming 89 dps below my sub set Sinscheme

silk wyvern
#

im getting annoyed of paladins and vengence dh is there any way to counter them

stoic needle
#

In pvp? Not really lol

silk wyvern
#

ya pvp

#

DH dont die

stoic needle
#

That's their thing

silk wyvern
#

what am i supposed to do to them

stoic needle
#

I couldn't tell you, better to ask in #pvp

silk wyvern
#

ohh ok

paper stratus
#

I noticed mark legendary is putting up the best nums on Warcraft logs would thst make it the go to

regal torrent
#

Is anyone playing assassination rogue like, at a competitive level

#

or are you all benched

stoic needle
#

Just because it's in a top log doesn't mean it's automatically the best

#

What it actually means is that no one at the high level has gotten the chance to craft zoldyck yet

paper stratus
#

Well that’s kind of what I figured just wanted to hear another OP

#

Overall statistics at every percentile in castle Nathria. But the fact that most high level players haven’t crafted zoldyck it makes sense

ive got 21% haste and 16% vers

#

that sounds money

#

I’ve seen some competitive outlaws, but they’re just better than their group most of the time

slim siren
#

what are you guys running for kyrian? pel for double potacy or kleia

toxic tusk
#

Pelagos for me

spice spire
#

Pelagos iirc

toxic tusk
#

Unrelated, but does the companion app let me view my characters and stats?

regal torrent
#

u get double potency in Night fae atm as well

#

oh woops

#

for kyrian

#

brain dead

slim siren
#

just for shits and giggles has anyone tried using count the odds conduit on blindside assassin?

#

cause it gives you the buff

lament hedge
#

At basically the same ilevel (207) my Assassin damage was 500dps lower than Outlaw last night - for Heroic Lady. Assassin is fun, but the damage is still pretty low.

#

Of course experience and playing well matters as I'm used to playing Outlaw much more this expansion, but I played assassin for the majority of BFA so its not new.

regal torrent
#

CtO gives you a buff in assassin spec?? lmao

slim siren
#

yea it shows them on my buff bar

#

dont know if they work havent tried it

regal torrent
#

thats about 400 dps less than outlaw

#

ofc its a bit of a weapon diff cause ive got a 197 1h instead of a 207 1h

spice spire
#

That seems low still

slim siren
#

yea your gonna do alot worse as assassin thats why its 4th from last for raid plus has the lowest(tied with surv) dps at the 100% point

#

has a higher average then bm and arms but has a lower peak

prisma yoke
#

yeah ... i just equipped 2x 190 BoE daggers and am 202 ilvl and i get about 4600 as well

regal torrent
#

oh woops

#

i dont have a conduit on either

#

for assassin atleast

prisma yoke
regal torrent
#

me small brain

slim siren
#

im assassin main with gear for it and im only at 4800

#

at 206

#

so yea a bit low

#

but conduits xD

regal torrent
#

whats two conduits you guys use?

#

!conduit

slim siren
#

lethal and toxic

prisma yoke
#

it's in the pins as well

spice spire
#

Yeah

regal torrent
#

ight i see

spice spire
#

I’m still at renown 25, gotta do the calling today for catchup but at 1 potency, I’m at 4900ish with a 190 OH. But I’m also 208 ilvl, so it should be closeish

whats ur haste/vers if u dont mind me asking

slim siren
#

crit 19 haste 15 mast 26 vers 15

#

but cant get a better one

#

yea alot of haste is good

#

for me it doesnt matter cause raidbots basicly says there 0.01 point apparent

#

appart

regal torrent
#

im an outlaw player been wanting to try assassin

#

i saw a debate over MA/Zold earlier

#

im gonna build 1 of them today, but which is best

slim siren
#

zold

regal torrent
#

kk

slim siren

or you can go dashing if you just want to play sin i nraids

#

zold is better overall tho yea?

slim siren
#

yea alot better on aoe

slim siren
#

dashing is just slightly better for single target it seems

regal torrent
#

that makes more sense there

#

so ill make zold today then 🙂

slim siren
#

yea thats what i go with

#

i like the blindside exe playstyle

#

tho i just want to go back to mast stack sin rogue

regal torrent
#

feels like i have so little keybinds now

slim siren
#

thats funny i get more when i go to sin

toxic tusk
#

Is dashing just a free master assassin talent?

slim siren
#

no thats master assassin

toxic tusk
#

Oh I’m an idiot

#

I knew that too.

slim siren
#

dashing is more crit chance for bleeds when you have envenom plus more energy

toxic tusk
#

Oooh nice!

#

Is it worth having a max legendary of both and just switch them up during raids?

slim siren
#

if you only play sin sure

#

and dont care about gold

toxic tusk
#

I do only play sin, so that’s good to know.

lament hedge
#

Zold isn't far enough Dashing for that to be reasonable, but if you have the time and extra Ash, go for it

#

It will up your dps some if you aren't changing your secondaries to account for Zol.

regal torrent
#

is there a stat diff when running zol?

spice spire
regal torrent
#

or is it just haste/vers for all

slim siren
#

haste crit is alot more important

lament hedge
#

Equip Zol legendary and run a stat weight versus equiping Dashing, you'll get some significantly different results.

regal torrent
#

i would but i dont own either cause im thinking of swapping to assassin

spice spire
#

I’ve too much haste in general. But also haste > vers = crit is the general consensus but it definitely changes as it goes

slim siren
#

hm weird for my char vers sucks badly

lament hedge
#

Do you have Zold equipped?

slim siren
#

yea

lament hedge
#

My stat weights are Haste>Mastery>Vers>Crit

slim siren
#

for me crit and hase are at 1.3 and mastery and vers are at .92

spice spire
#

Stat weights change based on your current stats. So while they may prefer x now, if you collect a metric shit ton of that stat? It’s priority will fall

regal torrent
#

i'm just shy of 5k dps simmed for assassin if i swap

#

doesnt seem bad

lament hedge
#

Right, but because Zold focus' so high on the thing that is raised by Mastery, it changed the priority for me from before I had that legendary.

slim siren
#

weird i only have 200 mast and its still so low

spice spire
#

Is my current weights because I have so much haste

regal torrent
#

ok so

#

zold is based on mast/crit then

slim siren
#

no not exactly

regal torrent
#

stat weights right

lament hedge
#

No no, Zold just causes your poison and bleeds to be a higher percentage of your overall damage.

regal torrent
#

cant SIm the stat weight if i dont have the item tho

#

so should i craft it a haste/vers

#

or haste/crit

slim siren
#

haste crit imo

regal torrent
#

general consensus then?

lament hedge
#

I think I went Haste/Vers

slim siren
#

what are your stat percents again?

spice spire
regal torrent
#

i have haste/vers boots on right now

#

13/21/23/16

spice spire
#

Zoldyck’s doesn’t change your priority

slim siren
#

yea you have alot of vers already same as me which is why vers is basicly my worst stat

#

so i wouldnt stack any more vers

regal torrent
#

we going haste/crit then

#

fuckin SEND IT

spice spire
#

Get it dog

lament hedge
#

Yeah I was stacking vers and haste because I was playing outlaw. So Mastery went up in priority when I equipped Zold and Assassination.

regal torrent
#

yuppp

slim siren
#

fair

regal torrent
#

im an outlaw player swapping

slim siren
#

i only have one mastery item and its still my worst stat xD

spice spire
#

Both are valid options. Vers is a fine stat but 16% is pretty high, so you probably need the crit.

regal torrent
#

it was begging me to find crit items cause i was 17% haste/21% vers

lament hedge
#

This game is fun.

regal torrent
#

I mean, it is

#

but my feral druid is ruined now cause of stats

#

so im trying to do this right

#

218 and only doing like 5.6k cause of bad stats

#

when other ferals doing 6k+

#

zzzz

lament hedge
#

I can't imagine playing Feral and Rogue. Its almost the same thing. Get yourself a big 2H class and enjoy the big numbers.

regal torrent
#

lmaoo

#

they're just what i enjoy, i dont enjoy big 2h swingy boys

lament hedge
#

I leveled a Frost DK as 2H even thought its objectively worse just because I couldn't do a dual wield class again.

slim siren
#

i hate the way gear is in general right now doesnt feel like upgrades matter tbh

#

plus i want my posion/bleed focused builds back

regal torrent
#

i tried to do a Necrolord Cat for fun last week

#

cause my stats are big fucekd like i said

lament hedge
#

Yeah, honestly thank god for Zold, because otherwise any item with Mastery on it is absolute garbage, at least it makes the secondary a little useful.

regal torrent
#

absolute dogshit now i gotta wait to be night fae again

slim siren
#

right and why do all the necks in raid have mast on it

#

its some bs

regal torrent
#

just do pvp

#

😛

lament hedge
#

I've gotten the necklace off Huntsman 3 times now between heroic and normal...

slim siren
#

im not gonna get to 2400 just to get a heroic level neck

#

with bad stats

regal torrent
#

1.6k is heroic lvl

#

haste/vers neck isnt bad

slim siren
#

yes it is

#

vers main stat

regal torrent
#

well

slim siren
#

worse then huntsman neck

regal torrent
#

go run m+ lol

slim siren
#

i try but no one will let a 210 rogue in 10s for some odd reason

regal torrent
#

i left my rogue on the back burner and only did a m9 on it

#

and got a 216 sin stained neck

#

142 haste pog

slim siren
#

hell i cant even get into m 7s

regal torrent
#

what??

#

is it cause you arent outlul

#

cause im 1k+ io as outlaw getting into 14s

slim siren
#

nope i have my outlaw equiped to 210

regal torrent
#

is ur io dogshit

#

could be that

slim siren
#

prob

regal torrent
#

people dont like low io players, but makes 0 sense

slim siren
#

not gonan do low keys to get a io score seems fucking dumb

regal torrent
#

cause they need to gain io by doing keys

slim siren
#

yea im only at 300 io apprently

regal torrent
#

yeahhhh

fading wigeon
#

Yeah that's low

regal torrent
#

thats going to limit you alot

#

just spam m7s in ones you havent done to get your io up

slim siren
#

i stil love my keys are just like plus 7s with double chesting them

fading wigeon
#

If you don't ha e a +7 complete don't expect to get I to a 7

regal torrent
#

and then do 10s cause people let m7 average ios in 10

slim siren
#

ive completed 10s

#

just not in time

fading wigeon
#

Yeah

#

Work on timing it

slim siren
#

cause people cant dodge a damn boss

regal torrent
#

timing keys is big priority

slim siren
#

the second boss of spires

fading wigeon
#

Usually have to time each key and build up your io

regal torrent
#

yuppp

#

as a 218 feral with a 1145 io, i cant geti nto 15s generally, and it isnt cause im feral

#

i can geti nto 14s tho?

#

lmao

slim siren
#

io reminds me of fuckn gs and i hate that its a thing again

#

that kinda system

regal torrent
#

god leeching poison is crazy

#

im at 18% leech with all my leech items

slim siren
#

is it just me or does mplus feel like it isnt rewarding at all cause the ilvl just isnt up to par

#

damn

#

lol

regal torrent
#

im basically a Demon hunter with all this leech

fading wigeon
#

PvP is where it's at if you are gearing for raids

toxic tusk
regal torrent
#

goddamn

#

mans is masteried up

fading wigeon
slim siren
#

yea they fucked the gearing system makes me really not enjoy the game

open swift
#

rip

regal torrent
#

yeah it takes alot of time to gear now or luck

slim siren
#

put res back on pvp gear and its solved

regal torrent
#

i got 210 relatively fast

slim siren
#

nah its not even that i hate its that gear doesnt feel like upgrades

regal torrent
#

but i also have nothing to do

slim siren
#

normal raid is

#

3 ilvls above honor gear

#

pvp gear even at low ratings match heroic gear

#

feels really bad

#

plus m+ gear is low ilvl

#

i like scarcity of gear if it was done to make every peice of gear feel impactful

stoic needle
#

We need m+ tokens, and the weird plateau of ilvl in m+ gear from 10+ keys to 14s needs to begone

#

It's just dumb

slim siren
#

we also need items with special effects

open swift
#

its also hard to gear without having a guild

slim siren
#

one of the best items i can remember last xpac was geti'ikku it felt amazing if you got it alot more impactful then generic sword number 4

stoic needle
#

More poxstorm!

slim siren
#

exactly

slim siren
#

weapons and items with effects should be sprinkled more throughout the game

stoic needle
#

I will never say no to more interesting weapons tbh

#

Cuz gear right now is fucking boring

slim siren
#

right

open swift
#

have you seen the trinket from nathria ?

#

thats pretty cool

stoic needle
#

Which one

slim siren
#

the only gear that i have that i know by name is skulkers

#

and zoldycks

open swift
#

Skulkers Wing

stoic needle
#

Yeah I have skulkers

slim siren
#

yet in classic i could remember basicly all my gear by name

stoic needle
#

It's... Aight

open swift
#

it sounds fun af

stoic needle
#

If it was more reliable I would enjoy it a lot more

slim siren
#

yea its glitchy

stoic needle
#

It's just kinda buggy atm

slim siren
#

i like it but i somtimes have to run away from an enemy to get it to work

#

so like why use it

stoic needle
#

I think it's a mistake to not let trinkets be affected by our mastery or our abilities

slim siren
#

eh depends

stoic needle
#

Why the heck can't we get flayedwing toxin and Phial and indivisible ooze and make a poison build

#

That benefits from our mastery and shiv

slim siren
#

dmg trinkets with like outlaw true bareing would be way to op

open swift
#

i liked the logic trinkets from bfa

stoic needle
#

Well yeah they would have to be careful with some of the effects

#

I think cdr in general is a no

slim siren
#

fair

stoic needle
#

But if a trinket does poison or nature damage

#

We should get a boost to it

slim siren
#

their never gonna do it because of the one fury warrior trinket that lasted 3 patches xD

open swift
slim siren
#

draught of souls i thin

#

the guldan one

stoic needle
#

Similarly with monks and their physical damage boost and DH with their magic damage boost

open swift
#

rogues should get one from poisons tbh

stoic needle
#

I think stuff like that is only good for the game. There's nothing good about boring gear that's bis for everyone

slim siren
#

yea they def need to make gearing better

#

id love to see a patch with a 2 boss raid but everything else is dedicated to gearing

open swift
#

Ion said they werent happy with the gearing from m+ and raids

stoic needle
#

They'd probably have to reduce the benefit from mastery to trinkets to keep it balanced but I think it's worth the effort to test and balance

open swift
stoic needle
#

Yeah but all I think they will change is the rate of aquisition. I don't think they're going to do anything to address how the gear itself is boring

open swift
#

my problem is the 35 anima from raid bosses

stoic needle
#

The covenant armor with the set bonuses are actually cool but they're just worse than regular gear

#

Omg don't even get me started on that shit FeelsWeird

open swift
#

If I dont get loot thats fine, but 35 anima is less then a WQ lol

slim siren
#

id love to see a better reforge system

stoic needle
#

It feels very weird that the best thing you get from raiding is 2-3 more chances at loot in your vault

#

Cuz the bosses don't drop shit

slim siren
#

where you get tokens from activitys to upgrade and unlock different types of stuff

stoic needle
#

It would be cool to be able to spend anima to reforge stats on gear

slim siren
#

idk bout you guys i loved azerite perks but the way they were and the imbalence was shit

stoic needle
#

Like if you have a haste vers piece, you can spend anima to make it 100 haste 50 vers from 75 haste 75 vers

slim siren
#

like the idea of having different customizble procs and effects would be fun

regal torrent
#

i like how the mistcaller ocarina is changable

#

they should do that with stuff like you said

#

anima to make stuff diff stats

slim siren
#

yea that would be a good thing

stoic needle
#

They could include the missives too

regal torrent
#

yessss

#

missives and anima

#

boom

stoic needle
#

500 anima, haste missive

slim siren
#

there is a ton they could do that no one would hate

#

but they wont do it for some reason

stoic needle
#

I wouldn't mind a legendary enchant system or something too

#

Like imagine if you could add the poxstorm effect to any weapon

slim siren
#

yea exactly

#

like the weapon enchant system is amazing the enchants feel great we need more of those types of procs

stoic needle
#

Ya I think that's the issue there's just too few enchants

#

You have sinful and celestial and lightless and that's it

#

Give me like a half dozen more lol

slim siren
#

the chest enchants feel great to tbh

stoic needle
#

And they are just generic

slim siren
#

but the rest are just stats

stoic needle
#

% stats, % damage, aoe dmg proc

#

Lightless is actually pretty cool even if it's a bit awkward

slim siren
#

just mor diversity

stoic needle
#

But sinful and celestial are pretty boring

slim siren
#

like the attack speed one last xpac was nice

#

i like having sinful tbh cestial yea fair

#

but id like more procs then just flat dmg

stoic needle
#

I think what it comes down to is that all of these things would need to be balanced carefully and they don't have the resources to do that

#

They couldn't even make the covenants balanced and that was one of the main features of the expansion

regal torrent
#

assassin actually seems fun

#

doing my torghast layer 8s real fast so i can make zold

slim siren
#

yea their balence team is on drugs

stoic needle
#

Well blizzard had a lot of layoffs before SL

#

I think bobby kotick is hoovering up all the $$$ they could spend on hiring more designers

#

They should go the valve route and let players design things on a modded server and just pick from the best ones and implement them in the game

slim siren
#

honestly wouldnt be a bad idea to have design comps

simple kettle
#

should we stop stacking haste after 30%?

spice spire
#

There’s not enough diminishing returns to care. But at some point your enchants and stones won’t want to be haste

#

I’m at 27 rn iirc and it wants crit everything

regal torrent
#

hey guys

#

how about doomblade over zold

stoic needle
#

Not worth

#

Doomblade is only good for single target

#

Maybe as a 2nd legendary

#

But zoldyck is just too versatile

regal torrent
#

shame

#

kk

#

ight

#

zoldys made

stoic needle
#

Doomblade is probably my favorite legendary from an effect standpoint, I wish it were better

regal torrent
#

might try me some pvp as assasin

#

does it matter which weapon is in the mainhand

#

or does it have to be the higher ilvl

#

xd

balmy condor
#

ILvL always

regal torrent
#

got a normal weapon from Sire when i was apart of necrolords

#

now im kyrian

#

cant xmog it

#

driving me fucking nuts

stoic needle
#

there's a janky way to do it

#
World of Warcraft Forums

Ssizzle on the US forum found a workaround and IT WORKS!! I found a work around to fix this, just remove an enchant at the same time of selecting new mog. Explained below : Revert your original covenant weapon back to no xmog, no enchant. Select enchant (Beastslaying) Hit Apply. Click revert enchant, then select new xmog. Hit Apply. Worked ...

regal torrent
#

loool

#

worked

#

cant do my artifact skins tho

stoic needle
#

yeah that seems to still not work sadly

iron orchid
#

Just timed PF 17

#

AND

stoic needle
#

iron orchid
#

I got the trinket

#

EHE

stoic needle
#

amazing

iron orchid
#

When I already have the 226

#

KEK

stoic needle
#

what ilvl does a 17 give?

iron orchid
#

210 😢

stoic needle
iron orchid
stoic needle
#

blizzard please

#

in order to do a 17 don't you need gear that makes a 210 useless

slim siren
#

when your 17s give 3 items less then heroic raid

iron orchid
#

15+ giving less than HM raiding feels weird

spice spire
#

210 is max mythics give 🙂

slim siren
#

thats why mythic plus feels uselss

iron orchid
#

Yup

slim siren
#

it feels like to do it you need the gear far past what it drops

spice spire
#

The chest feels real good tho

iron orchid
#

Just farm your weekly chest and wait for reset ...

stoic needle
#

that's so lame

spice spire
#

^

stoic needle
#

but i actually enjoy doing mythics...

iron orchid
#

Me too

#

It feels great to work with your team on what pull to do and how

stoic needle
#

honestly it feels like I am being punished for helping my guildies with keys because it pollutes the 2nd slot

#

unless i do like 5 or more +10s

spice spire
#

Isn’t the second slot just the lowest of your top 6?

stoic needle
#

yeah so unless i do 6 10s, i get worse gear

iron orchid
#

but for now I am some kind of free agent inside my guild because I don't play the right spec and I just fill empty slots

stoic needle
#

6 10s is a lot

#

for me right now at least

spice spire
#

It isn’t that bad, I’m half way through this week.

stoic needle
#

well I'm trying not to play this dang game so much 😛

iron orchid
#

I have managed to get all 3 slots up to 14+ for the last two weeks, and I am already 7/10 this week

#

Just hope I get that sweet 226 dagger from mists poggers

spice spire
#

Jesus

#

I’m hoping for a 220, or a 223-6 if we get one done this week.

lament dove
#

yeah now that I reached 14s and can get 226 from weekly, this is the point where all my decisions in life brought me... now I will get a weapon, I feel it...

#

otherwise I will never get a weapon upgrade lol

stoic needle
#

what's the addon that lets you see which keys you've completed already this week?

iron orchid
#

Going from PF14 to 17 straight up gave 47 RIO score

stoic needle
#

damn

iron orchid
spice spire
#

Nice!

stoic needle
#

dei tha god

#

idk if im gonna get KSM this season i'd just like to get all 10s

frozen jasper
stoic needle
#

yeah that's my situation

frozen jasper
#

My guys just aren‘t online that much so I need to get as much keys in as possible on the one evening they are online lol

stoic needle
#

just got into a +11 DoS doe peepoguns

frozen jasper
stoic needle
#

i fucking love fortified weeks

#

the mobs live long for all of the dots

#

you can actually be semi competitive with the big classes in pugs when they can't just obliterate everything in 1 burst combo

#

what finesse conduit do you all like for m+? prepared for all or rushed setup?

balmy condor
#

I like rushed for kidney reduc but probably not worth tbh

#

I use vial much more than kidney

stoic needle
#

yeah once we get renown 30 being able to have recuperator and nimble fingers together will be nice

#

i think nimble fingers might be better than recup for M+ since i seem to use elusiveness feint quite a bit

#

if you can only have one i mean

balmy condor
#

Yeh

#

Nimble is pog

slim siren
#

what if we dont use finesse conduits at all 👀

stoic needle
#

i'm top dps in this dos 11 with a boomie and ele peepochrist

we did not time it D:

top damage in a dungeon as sin

its not a dungeon, its a trap

the boomkin who did 2.2k overall got the inscrutable quantum device -_-

#

i got anime

balmy condor
#

That looks like a bad pug group

native turtle
#

Seems like the kind of group that would accept an Assassination rogue to M+ ya know

real bay
#

it was his grp lmao

native turtle
#

This is awkward

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

Facts tho

stoic needle
#

no that's not my group

real bay
#

boomer last is feelsweirdman

stoic needle
#

you get the crown in details when you're top dps

real bay
#

never noticed that

stoic needle
#

it was the ele's group

real bay
#

😆

devout temple
#

"lol you are assass"

#

when is 10.0

real bay
#

rare boy

devout temple
#

rare for a reason tho

#

i love sin i want it to be above average so bad, mabye in 9.1

#

or even just average would be fine

stoic needle
#

we are average

devout temple
#

not on warcraft logs, dunno if thats accurate tho

#

is it average for m+ tho?

stoic needle
#

no one has crafted high level sin legendaries yet. WCL statistics won't be reliable at least for a few more weeks

devout temple
#

oh

#

as for m+ is it average or below average

stoic needle
#

mmh

balmy condor
#

is aight

#

outlaw just does everything better

stoic needle
#

yeah

devout temple
#

i see

stoic needle
#

haven't been under a tank in damage since the buff, nor more than 800dps behind the top dps

#

i'd call that average

devout temple
#

even fire mage?

stoic needle
#

yeah, talking about overall dps

#

they have high peaks but low valleys, sin is consistent

topaz saffron
#

Love DPS that give you sass before an M+ and then they play mediocre af

stoic needle
#

also depends on the week, its better on fortified week than on tyrranical

limber lion
#

Fire mages currently with kindling+shifting power should be able to combust every single trash pack on 15+ keys. So they don't really have that much downtime as you'd think. They can easily get 2 combusts off per boss fight as well.

#

Also fire mages dps is better and more consistent than assa's if the tank pulls more than 2 mobs, which he should

#

With fire patch they just hardcast flamestrike and do 4k dps without any cds.

plain thistle
#

lets not forget about Spiteful, where its actually a good idea to just CC and run to the next pack, hurting even more since we cant re stealth besad

#

not sure if denial will help, the diff between me and the sub rogue in my guild is around 1k, gear the same ilvl

stoic needle
#

No one who's top logging***

#

I also have a maxed zoldyck

#

Denial? What? Lol

ornate dawn
#

Who says im not top logging 😉

stoic needle
#

We are very close to sub atm

#

I didn't say you weren't but if you are, youre setting the top end right now. The 'pack' needs to have it and good gear before the wcl ranking will rise

#

Cuz it's an average score

balmy condor
#

its not denial

#

I sim 400 lower than my gear in sub

#

and have beaten some of my recorded scores on sub, as sin

#

on stuff like hungering, altimor, etc

pliant apex
#

hmm

#

guess the rogue in my guild is 206, im 201 not same ilvl at all

#

so thats def not a fair comparision

#

he would be 400-500 dps above if i were his ilvl

balmy condor
#

like I am in no way a poggers rogue

#

but like

#

that seems fine to me

#

there's some fight time stuff on some fights

pliant apex
#

bottom is sin?

balmy condor
#

and some faster kill times

#

yes

#

but for me, that looks fine

pliant apex
stoic needle
#

I absolutely do

#

Considering we beat them in cleave

balmy condor
#

I do as well

pliant apex
#

yea i think i need to just learn mechanics, gear up and keep trying

stoic needle
#

And very few people are playing sub to its peak potential

pliant apex
#

yea, i mean i have rotation down perfectly, so thats something

ornate dawn
pliant apex
#

do you think oshosi itll help if i switch covs from venth to nf?

balmy condor
#

will you beat sub players that are really good sub players? no.

ornate dawn
#

other rogue is outlaw

balmy condor
#

will you beat the sub/law players that just play sub/law because meta chasing or whatever?

#

yes

Venthyr is just like.... Horrendously bad

#

At best, it's inconsistent, and lower dps then the rest. At worst, it's like having no covenant at all

halcyon grail
#

Venthyr shines later on when it's 3% flat DMG is better than any potency conduit the others get early.

stoic needle
#

It's still trash because flag is bad and thrill seeker is a rng clown fiesta

#

As is soothing shade

#

It doesn't matter how much haste or mastery they add if you are forced off the boss or away from the effect when it procs

#

And since it's rng you can't control it

#

Not even to mention it's nearly impossible to get full flag stacks as sin

pliant apex
#

wow man

halcyon grail
#

Data is what it is mate. But I understand not liking it for reasons. Just like Skulkers.

#

And again. In current gear.

#

Listen friend, I have been playing venthyr since the 2nd week

#

It's bad

pliant apex
#

i would agree, ive almost exclusively played venth too

stoic needle
#

I cannot even count how many times thrill seeker procced before a mechanic in m+ or raids

pliant apex
#

and it seems SHIT

stoic needle
#

Theotar's soothing shade at least procs from an ability, and even that is bad because you're forced to move

pliant apex
#

yea, and if i hate kyrian aesthetic, i can just go nf right

#

much better than venth, fun too

stoic needle
#

Venthyr is only good on straight up patchwerk fights without mechanics which do not exist in the game currently

pliant apex
#

^^^^

#

so true

#

also you gota use the ability a second time and that makes it unfun

stoic needle
#

Flag costs 2 gcds and 40 energy

#

And doesn't even give you CP

#

Does bad damage

#

Meanwhile sepsis hits for like 10k+ overall and gives you a free garotte silence

#

Or an ambush if you're a different spec

#

Fuus spreadsheet?

#

And BiS list?

#

I'd like to see the covenants compared in a sim in hectic add cleave and light movement/heavy movement

balmy condor
#

venthyr still gets beat by night fae

#

like

#

comfortably

stoic needle
#

Yeah but I'd like to see the gap between the two

#

I bet it gets larger

halcyon grail
#

In fully mythic gear it's like 200 DPS.

balmy condor
#

im not talking hectic and shit

halcyon grail
#

However early on its much larger a gap. Like when most people saw an instant 200-300 dps increase going kryian/nF

stoic needle
#

I'd just like a way to show in a sim what I have experienced in practice: venthyr being shit when mechanics are in the equation

halcyon grail
#

On sim

pliant apex
#

i think more than that, at the ground level, the dps gap is big, in that flag is also harder to get right

pliant apex
#

at reknown 25, how long might it take to hit 25 on nf

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

I am renown 23 after switching at the beginning of this week

pliant apex
#

oh wow

halcyon grail
#

Literally everything grants renown when you switch

balmy condor
#

venthyr just kinda bad regardless of when peeposhrug

stoic needle
#

I'm mad the coolest looking covenant is the worst

halcyon grail
#

You mean necrolords right? Jk

pliant apex
#

if im 26, and raids tomorrow, makes sense to switch after raid right lol

halcyon grail
stoic needle
#

You should switch before raid

#

Because you can get renown from killing raid bosses

#

You should switch and do as much of the covenant campaign as you can

#

I got 2 from raid last night

pliant apex
#

ohh wow thanks man

#

ill do it rn then

#

youre right

stone epoch
#

I wish necrolords looked cool

#

All the sets look sick except for leather

tawny iris
#

guys EP or MP for m+?

balmy condor
#

EP

native turtle
#

All in favor of making mutilate only usable behind your target? I think it would save the spec

topaz saffron
#

🤔

stoic needle
regal torrent
#

so it seems im doing 3.5k dps up until execute phase at 208 ilvl

#

does that seem normal

balmy condor
#

yeh seems reasonable

stoic needle
#

That's pretty much exactly what I do at 208 ilvl

#

I also sim 3.5k on a target dummy
