#

Not as a legendary just baseline pls

calm grail
#

Make it as good as it was in BFA pre-nerf.

balmy condor
#

but that's handled by subterfuge mostly

#

you get 3-4 garrotes from stealth and CT and you're chilling

#

that's your damage

stoic needle
#

Subterfuge is nice but it doesn't compete with combust

calm grail
#

Subterfuge and iron wire and Shrouded suffocation made assassination feel great on pulls.

balmy condor
#

well yeah, and it never will

subtle tundra
#

and they shouldnt

balmy condor
#

that's not how that works

stoic needle
#

If you can consistently fok and get 5cp you can spam CT and do more damage

#

Or put up more ruptures

balmy condor
#

that's a byproduct of having more stats

#

that's not scaling

stoic needle
#

That's why I said the viability of the spec in m+ scales with crit

balmy condor
#

scaling inherently implies that you're going to be stronger in comparison, as you gain stats, than other specs

#

having more stats and doing more damage is just a byproduct of having gear

stoic needle
#

Ok fine

#

We need a different word

balmy condor
#

but that doesn't mean we're gonna beat an MM hunter suddenly right?

#

you wouldn't take a sin rogue over a windwalker just because the sin rogue has crit now

calm grail
#

God, what was the set bonus from Antorus? It made AOE feel pretty good.

#

FoK felt good then.

dreamy kayak

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

**Shadowlands: ** Haste > Versatility => Critical Strike => Mastery

stoic needle
#

We might actually beat mm hunters now after wild spirits nerf keksquad

#

But yeah

balmy condor
#

it's a slippery slope back to 34% crit sin and 40% crit sub

#

and all that nonsense

spice spire
#

How big of a nerf are you expecting? Removal from the game?

stoic needle
#

They won't be taken in keys pretty much

lyric flax
#

!bis

calm grail
#

Is there confirmation of a Wild SPirits nerf? Or is this wishful thinking?

stoic needle
#

They don't have anything spectacular utility wise and now they will do less damage than fire mage and boomkin

obtuse anvil
#

it's a bug fix

stoic needle
#

They are bug fixing the double proccing bug

#

The serpent sting legendary procced a wild spirits attack from the extra sting and from the aimed shot that triggers it

#

That will no longer be the case

calm grail
#

Wasn't that a tiny ass nerf?

#

Like 3% damage?

stoic needle
#

No it's not tiny

#

It's gonna be more than that

calm grail
#

I thought I read somewhere it's not that huge.

stoic needle
#

Probably hunters in denial

calm grail
#

Like your 8k overall MM hunter might be like 7.8k

stoic needle
#

They do dogshit single target damage

#

Like lower than outlaw

#

And this halves their burst damage with wild spirits

#

So

calm grail
#

I don't think Wild Spirits works how you think it does.

#

It won't "Half their damage" with it.

stoic needle
#

I mean yes it kinda does

#

They're getting half as many procs of wild spirits during the effect

coral imp
#

for keys is it even worth going for the 23% haste for extra tick or should I just prio crit

balmy condor
#

we can sim the hunter thing

coral imp
#

IDK

#

I SAW

#

someone say

#

at 23% haste

#

you get an extra tick on your dots or something

balmy condor
#

I mean

shy dust
#

@balmy condor sin lost sim dps

#

from envenom not pandemicing right?'

balmy condor
#

if you look at one bleed in a vacuum, yeah

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

The nerf puts NF hunter below kyrian hunter in aoe

shy dust
#

im not even 6.3k anymore

stoic needle
#

And no one takes kyrian hunters in keys

coral imp
#

finish your thought @balmy condor ๐Ÿ˜ก

balmy condor
#

that was the thought

#

if you look at a single bleed

#

and that's it

#

in a vacuum

#

with nothing else

#

then you have breakpoints that exist where you get an extra tick

#

but then you factor in pandemic and multiple bleeds and refreshing and haste buffs and all that shit

#

and that's completely thrown out of the window

coral imp
#

oh yea ur right

stoic needle
#

Alacrity will get you to 23% pretty quick

coral imp
balmy condor
#

yeh that too

coral imp
#

ok cool ty guys

balmy condor
#

cause idk how dungeonslice works for those guys

#

lost about 5% from the fix

#

on 1:30

glass breach
#

with the new lego changes coming in 9.0.5 is the bleed build gonna be viable or naw

balmy condor
#

sad days to be a hunter tbh

stoic needle
balmy condor
sleek sparrow
#

ST falling off, aoe getting nerfed PepePoint

glass breach
#

it was looking like assassin was making a comback sigh

balmy condor
#

it.... it is?

#

we're getting nothing but buffs week after week

glass breach
#

oh

#

kane was talking about hunter not rogue my bad

stoic needle
#

If ptr goes live with no more changes we will be second highest simming ST dps behind feral

#

Which is a lot bigger than it sounds because sin is very easy to reach sim numbers with

icy crater
#

good thing CN is loaded with ST

stoic needle
#

It's like half and half

#

And we have execute for the other half

#

If we had a raid buff too we'd be actually giga

glass breach
#

is Zoldyck still going to be overall best lego

icy crater
#

is that sim with zold?

balmy condor
#

what sim

icy crater
#

that oshosi is talking about

stoic needle
#

It's with doomblade e

spice spire
calm grail
#

So 5% less Whispyr? So would you say their damage is not in fact, halved for AOE?

balmy condor
#

halved? lul

#

not from a fix on one ability

#

hold on let me take the covenant out entirely

calm grail
balmy condor
#

removing the covenant, conduit, and soulbind entirely is ~25%

calm grail
#

Hmm.

balmy condor
#

well burst and 1:30min is a little different

glass breach
#

is the venth rework/changes going to be best or viable even

calm grail
#

For Outlaw it ties Venthyr with Fae

#

Like, literally.

calm grail
#

Well, if you're counting Niya and ST in a nutshell.

glass breach
#

thanks

balmy condor
# calm grail

we can do like 20 second sims, but those will be giga volatile

calm grail
#

I guess in my mind overall dmg > burst windows for m+

#

Even if your burst goes from 30k to 20k

#

or 15 (in that example)

stoic needle
#

Well that's just false

balmy condor
#

removing the covenant entirely seems to cut it in half on 20 seconds

stoic needle
#

M+ is all about burst windows right now

balmy condor
#

not like that sim means anything

#

but eh

stoic needle
#

M+ is about nuking down huge pulls with pride

#

Which needs big burst

#

Overall isn't unimportant but it's absolutely secondary to burst

calm grail
#

I guess my point Oshosi, is I play Outlaw w/ decent gear, and even using Korayn/KS I get lucky if I maintain 15k+ for more than a little bit. My MM buddy routinely hits 30k.

#

So even nerfed half (which idk if that's even true or just a random guess), they're still doing great.

balmy condor
#

I'd say it's a bit of a hyperbole on the half thing

calm grail
#

For sure.

stoic needle
#

Sure I'll admit that

calm grail
#

My point is even if the hyperbole was accurate, MM still fine.

stoic needle
#

But the nerf will put them below mage and boomkin, which means most groups will want double mage double boomie than a MM

strange python
#

well yea ur not gonna compete for damage with MM hunter literally smorc unga bunga me hunter me wild spirits big dammy dammy POOGERS POOGERS POOGERS POOGERS POOGERS POOGERS POOGERS lets not have unrealistic expectations here

balmy condor
#

^ is that necessary

strange python
#

no bawkDoit

calm grail
#

Imagine if Rogue had Wild Spirits, specifically Outlaw. Absolutely busted. People see my sepsis damage and ask me what my covenant even does ๐Ÿ˜ฆ I have to explain it allows other rogue abilities/damage to be better.

#

lol.

strange python
#

its just me being salty about hunter in my guild flexing their m+ damage all the time ๐Ÿ˜Œ

spice spire
#

โ€œMy covenant ability is actually burrsโ€

stoic needle
#

Wtb convoke the poisons

calm grail
#

You just stab like a zergling and latch onto your target, it's like killing spree for dagger users.

icy crater
#

Do you know how useless it is to take a covenant ability from 1 class and slap it on another one and say how broken it would be

calm grail
#

(Was a heavy dose of hyperbole)

#

But you can break it down logically if you want.

icy crater
#

It doesn't even make sense that way

strange python
#

it is at least important to keep in mind that if MM hunter didn't have that ability the spec would be mediocre at best

icy crater
#

If it was pure omegalul sarcasm I guess that's different

calm grail
#

Actually, I'm thinking about it, we both use Korayn in m+ , me and my MM buddy. If I did have Wild Spirits, that would absolutely do more damage than Sepsis.

#

Because the passives are the same.

loud light
#

convoke the poisons would be so cool when it just gives you like 30 combo points, 25 of which are overcapped

strange python
#

yea I kinda wish sepsis either had an execute or spread to nearby targets upon expiring

#

o well

calm grail
#

If it did some balanced version of what it does from Torghast that would be cool.

#

Obviously tuned.

#

Either the CDR/spread or the Splash.

spice spire
#

Free vendetta CD if it expires pepeclown

strange python
#

what if

#

when it killed a target

#

instead of just reducing the CD on itself it reduced the CD on all of your abilities

#

actually idk how much that'd help

balmy condor
#

what if

#

all the people

#

lived their life in peace

#

you may say I'm a dreamer

#

but I'm not the only one

strange python
balmy condor
#

not a lennon fan

#

feels bad man

spice spire
#

Griff likes catcher in the rye a bit too much it seems tinfoil_pepe

strange python
#

I'm not a murderer peepoSad

tribal marlin
#

you can do 30sec sim it's probably more accurate but remove lust

hollow hawk
#

so this is what the sin channel is like when not on fire after patch notes are released

stoic needle
celest ruin
#

!bis

#

wait where did the command go

balmy condor
#

it got removed

celest ruin
#

jokes on you i searched my browser history and found the link

hollow hawk
#

people acting like the bis list was the only way wasn't pog so it became death

strange python
#

but it had his name on it peepoSad

#

sad

balmy condor
#

my goal is to give the best information I can to try and help the most people

#

the bis list wasn't doing that

#

so we remove

strange python
#

Yeah I can see why bis lists are a bad idea Sadge better to just simself

loud silo
#

as the outlul lord and saviour says

#

bis lists are bad

strange python
#

pretty sure the outlaw rogue bis list on icy veins had flayedwing toxin on it

#

and im just like what

hollow hawk
#

Ill just have a scottish man on the internet tell me what is best thats certainly better than any sim right :)

spice spire
#

I get why it existed. I still had the 8.3 mindset of angery haste only but you need pretty even stats to absolutely go bis

#

It was at least a learning tool coming into the expansion

loud silo
#

consider the bis list a gear set. its only bis if you have all those pieces but thats just not realistic

balmy condor
#

it was meant to show the potential, and give some insight to stats and shit

#

it was meant to show the potential, and give some insight to stats and shit

#

not be used as a "take this item from your vault, farm this dungeon for this wrist or that trinket"

spice spire
#

Correct. And thatโ€™s exactly how I viewed it. But it stopped a REALLY stupid path Iโ€™d go down had it not been for that

balmy condor
#

and at first, the regulars who were using it as such, and it was fine

#

but then sin got buffed, and more lets call them randoms, showed up

#

and it shifted into that "this item good this item bad"

#

so that's why I removed it

spice spire
#

So the work wasnโ€™t useless, it was a very useful tool but yeah. I see that for sure peepostudy

balmy condor
#

I believe it can be useful

#

but it has to be used properly

#

and when the majority starts not doing that

#

and it starts hurting

#

it's not worth it anymore

#

waking up every tuesday/wednesday morning to "I got this out of my vault and it sims higher but bis list doesn't say it's good"

#

isn't really pog

celest ruin
#

it was a good reference, i was using it to compare sims and see which stat i need to have more of

loud light
#

just replace bis list with a thing that spits out "phial of putrefaction"

balmy condor
frosty bridge
#

So, after 9.0.5 sin over outlaw on Sire?

#

or even now

balmy condor
#

sin over outlaw on sire right now

frosty bridge
#

sick

strange python
#

outlaw feels like poo to play on sire

wide bolt
#

so long as you have zoldycks at least

#

sin > outlaw on sire

loud silo
#

how on earth does it feel bad

calm grail
#

Outlaw feels fine in pretty much all content. I guess on Hungering the downtime feels bad, but that's a melee thing.

celest ruin
#

i mean, the bis list was simming 6.6k and i cant even break 6.1k and im 223

dark vigil
#

!bis !rotation !whispyr should i reroll

loud silo
#

I feel like you're too obsessed with that bis list

calm grail
#

BiS list is whatever Top Gear tells me to use.

strange python
#

In my group I have to grapple to the platforms to help kill adds since we aren't running enough ranged, so unless I take retractable hook I get stuck over there not dpsing for a couple seconds once its dead feelsPOSman

calm grail
#

Oh well.

#

That's a comp issue, not Outlaw!

loud silo
#

I mean I was doing the same thing for my guild and it was fine

#

but I was also venth so i could just tp over

strange python
#

some weeks we have a preist and they just yoink me back

hollow hawk
#

can we night fae blink that gap

calm grail
#

Uhhh

hollow hawk
#

havent tried

loud silo
#

nope

strange python
#

no you will fall

#

I have found that out the hard way

calm grail
#

Yes, yes you can.

strange python
#

Wait really?

calm grail
#

Please record trying it.

loud silo
#

you cant even jump and BR the target

#

its lame as shit

dark vigil
#

tell me u dont got it bound

safe pendant
#

Just play sub and shadowstep ๐Ÿ˜Ž

calm grail
#

People play Sub still?

strange python
#

retractable hook is fine ig but I feel like acrobatic strikes is just really helpful cause you can step back to avoid massacre and still be able to hit

calm grail
#

Outside of PVP*

dark vigil
dull cloak
#

has anyone seen the log statistics on assassination boss damage

dark vigil
#

its high

loud silo
#

why would i play a spec that performs worse just to have an extra shadow step

dark vigil
#

very high

dark vigil
#

god

#

sin powers in torghast are so good

dull cloak
#

sin is lowkey pumping

hollow hawk
#

WOW all that gear for only $2.99 thats a steal

dark vigil
#

me love

strange python
#

i just tried out sin on a training dummy (rotation and how it feels) and even though i have 22% haste it still feels so slow the energy regen. what do i do to fix that

wide bolt
#

just to be safe cause i forgot this once

#

you changed specs and reapplied poisons right?

strange python
#

wait lol i simmed for dung slice im a dumbass

strange python
wide bolt
#

yea just being sure cause i forgot when i went to try sin lol

echo cargo
#

Question- if you're using the DoS trinket and by default it gives you a stat that isn't your highest weighted, is it worth waiting til' you have 5 stacks of alacrity to pop it to ensure it procs as Haste (assuming Haste is your strongest stat)?

dark vigil
#

trick question

#

dont use DoS trinket

strange python
#

i legit have no idea how much haste would i need to get a good feel again ๐Ÿ˜„

#

u can trick quantum device to always give u haste ?

dark vigil
#

id say about 20% haste and so you can start to feel it

strange python
#

i have 22 and i still can't keep 100% uptime on elaborate planning

dark vigil
#

whats ur crit

#

and idk about 100% uptime on EP

#

just want good uptime

dull cloak
balmy condor
#

it chooses based off of rating

strange python
echo cargo
#

I was under the impression it chose your highest

#

Whomp

dark vigil
#

around 30% crit 22% ish haste should feel good

#

since crit impacts your cp generation

#

haste for obvious reasons

balmy condor
#

what if it doesn't feel good for me

dark vigil
#

just get more

strange python
tired falcon
#

why is there almost 0 kryians in top 100 sins?

dark vigil
#

yues

#

hast eand crit

#

are like ur big big prio stats

#

crit for dmg and cp generation

#

haste for DoT dmg, energy gen and gcd

lean fossil
#

hollow hawk
balmy condor
#

it's gone

lean fossil
#

ahhh yeah im on wow heads ptr post

balmy condor
#

I also have a pin on the 9.0.5 changes

lean fossil
#

i knew it was gone before hand just didnt know if they changed their mind again

icy crater
#

Cttc is going to be really nice I think for pvp

lean fossil
#

thats all it showed, thats why i asked

balmy condor
#

yeah that's the new change

#

you're probably looking at the changes in the waves that they came out

#

the rank 2 got removed, and the VW buffs came in like 2 days later

lean fossil
#

ahhh yeah it was posted just a few mins ago

#

thats why i asked

#

gloomy knoll
#

balmy condor
gloomy knoll
#

oh i see it

#

not used to sin abbreviations lol

#

that's what i figured tho

#

but it's a 3% buff from cttc overall so same same

balmy condor
#

yeh the energy is the same

#

and cttc is just a straight buff

dark vigil
#

why did they nerf that feral legendary

#

wtf

#

LMAO

#

nobody used that shit

gloomy knoll
#

isn't feral like

#

one of the highest dps specs in the game right now

balmy condor
#

isn't feral like

dark vigil
#

feral is good but the legendary they buffed and nerfed

balmy condor
#

a different discord

dark vigil
#

was dogshit

mellow pier
#

imagine willingly playing feral when u could swap boomy

dark vigil
#

but funnel pepegSit

limber lion
#

I started reading discord during my Soulforge Torghast run and died to the torment

#

fak

#

nerf pls

dark vigil
#

lmao

#

wait soulforge isnt even in rotation

#

oh u must be eu

balmy condor
#

dontlookatmyclipstheyrecursed

dark vigil
#

so dogshit i have to wait another week to get zoldyck

stoic needle
balmy condor
dark vigil
#

maybe i should just make doomblade

stoic needle
#

to the moon we go

balmy condor
#

are we becoming the people we swore to kill

limber lion
#

Also, I wanna test out tiny blades on Torghast with 3x Unceasing Chain Link (450% generator after finisher)

dark vigil
#

:monkach

stoic needle
#

i mean tbh i was in here saying that I wished that doomblade was good a month ago

limber lion
#

But I'm not gonna craft the legendary for it

#

So someone else do it please, cheers thanks.

dark vigil
#

wheres monkachrist

stoic needle
#

i just thought it'd take more than a 50% buff to the dot to do it

dark vigil
balmy condor
#

well the dot is the main part

balmy condor
dark vigil
#

i dont have it unlocked

#

and i

stoic needle
#

isnt the envenom damage the main part monakHmm

balmy condor
dark vigil
#

got up to jaina today and it wouldnt let me continue

#

dude

#

i knew they would add mounting later on

#

so i just didnt bother

balmy condor
#

running.... anything?

dark vigil
#

i just run nightstalker and go invis through the maw anyways

stoic needle
#

tbh i wish they didn't add mounting to the maw

dark vigil
#

9.0.5 will add a new maw mount too

limber lion
#

I haven't done any twisting corridor myself either but the questline itself literally gives soul ash as a reward

#

No reason not to do it.

dark vigil
#

yeah

#

i did it on my other characters

#

for the soul ash

#

but now im cucked, they removed SOME of the timegating

balmy condor
dark vigil
#

i did like 3 quests back to back but got stuck and having to wait

balmy condor
#

we sim

dark vigil
#

til i can continue again

#

but next week coldheart will prob be in rotation anyways

balmy condor
#

hm

#

it added 40k envenom damage and 44k dot damage

#

on live

dark vigil
#

this ptr build

#

is boring

balmy condor
#

that's a lot closer than I thought

#

tbh

dark vigil
#

they didnt really change anything

balmy condor
#

I thought it was more like 60/25

#

dot/enven

sleek otter
#

Will def be even more skewed with 9.0.5

balmy condor
#

yeah the buff will definitely pull it up

#

I just thought the difference between bleed and envenom damage was bigger

#

and turns out they're like around the same

dark vigil
#

i thought the dot was like 20% of it

#

yea

balmy condor
#

so I guess neither one of us was right osh

stoic needle
balmy condor
dark vigil
#

mayb i should make it

#

wait

stoic needle
#

i dont really trust wowhead ptr patch notes anymore

#

but I really hope that one isn't true

spice spire
#

MY FUCKING WEEKLY IS GIGAHEAD.

#

It's now BiS to run doomblade shoulders

#

I'm scared

balmy condor
spice spire
#

for me*

dark vigil
#

so the new flag thing is just gone from ptr now

#

?

balmy condor
#

I mean doomblade has always simmed higher for me

stoic needle
#

idk tbh

balmy condor
#

but the envenom fix certainly helps

spice spire
#

It's not by a small margine, it's like 150 higher now

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

that's the envenom fix

stoic needle
#

like i said i don't trust wowhead ptr notes

spice spire
#

O

dark vigil
#

i mean doomblade buff plus ctc being added

#

gucci

spice spire
#

this is live, not PTR sims.

stoic needle
#

different thing

balmy condor
#

yes

#

the envenom fix is live

#

it was oversimming

#

so it got changed

spice spire
#

I SEE.

#

ty

balmy condor
#

seems to be a bug though

#

so maybe we'll get that 150 dps back

#

at some point

dark vigil
#

wut u mean

spice spire
#

223 pants + 235 doomblade shoulders beat 235 zoldyck pants and 200 shoulders essentially

stoic needle
#

well yes, 223 > 200 lol

dark vigil
#

yeah i guess ill prob just make doomblade

dark vigil
#

eh i can wait a week as well

#

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

stoic needle
#

i still think zoldyck is the better first craft

balmy condor
#

I agree

stoic needle
#

especially because doomblade isn't very good for M+

balmy condor
#

it's like akaari finality now

#

sorta

spice spire
#

It's hard carried me up to here.

dark vigil
#

i dont have it

#

fuckin unlocked

#

yea

#

ill just wait

spice spire
#

I just hit a breakpoint where I don't have shoulders

dark vigil
#

3k soul ash

stoic needle
#

by the time 9.0.5 hits I could have 235 doomblade, zold and some rank of duskwalkers monkaHMMING

dark vigil
#

duskwalker should be dank for sludge

lean fossil
#

so i got voracious gorger spine 226 with avoidance and arachnid cipher ring 226 in my vault that makes me question things lol i simmed myself and the ring is replacing the same ring but at 203 ilvl, and sims as more dps than the weapon, my question is for how hard it is to get weapons, should i take the weapon tho it would replace a 220 oh or take the ring?

limber lion
balmy condor
#

yeah

limber lion
#

Ah that's Pog

balmy condor
#

it was still pandemicing in sims

limber lion
#

Yeah and removed from the game when they fucked up DS

dark vigil
#

real question is why does envenom not poison the target instead of giving you a buff

#

makes no sense based on its name

#

idk why they changed that

viral vigil
#

So hows Venthyr looking for Sin rogues in 9.0.5

dark vigil
#

pins

#

my boi

stoic needle
balmy condor
#

wait you have a 226 mainhand

dark vigil
#

dungeon slice

balmy condor
#

and gear compare

stoic needle
#

ah you've got 1 226 already, def go for the ring

balmy condor
#

yeah

lean fossil
#

domina's oozing shiv 226 and voracious gorger spine 220

balmy condor
#

ring for sure

strange python
stoic needle
#

offhand doesn't really matter

#

226 mh gang HYPERS

icy crater
#

220 ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

lean fossil
#

alright and yeah my and pvp dont mix lol im terrible at it

balmy condor
#

don't pain yourself with gear compare btw

lean fossil
#

me*

balmy condor
#

so much effort

#

just open your vault and /simc

#

pulls the items into your import

viral vigil
balmy condor
#

top gear has a button to select all vault items

#

so you just import, select all vault items, sim

#

and you're done

strange python
#

we'll just have to see when its out how people feel about it in high rated

fiery mauve
#

Assass with venthyr sounds better than NF because you zug zug anyways and donโ€™t look for resets

#

But NF is stronk

#

And still has possibility of being better

strange python
#

well they do two different hings

#

things *

fiery mauve
#

Theyโ€™re both 90 second cds

fluid crystal
stoic needle
#

i mean flag is basically a dot too, just requires contact with your target to do damage

strange python
#

correct

#

im saying

fiery mauve
#

But the haste from thrill seeker sounds better then mastery from niya

balmy condor
fluid crystal
#

interesting will have to try that next week

fiery mauve
#

And if you zug zug it sounds better

strange python
#

when you pop flag, you're looking for a full go with the haste buff and staying onto your target

#

you want to make use of that when you can

fiery mauve
#

Thatโ€™s what youโ€™re doing with sepsis too

stoic needle
#

if you sepsis and then try to re you'll just get taken out of stealth by the bonk at the end

strange python
#

sepsis is good utility as well

stoic needle
#

so they're basically exactly the same except flag requires uptime

fiery mauve
#

Sepsis gives you a cheap shot/garrote

strange python
#

combo pt as well

fiery mauve
#

During go

stoic needle
#

true

balmy condor
#

and has a one button

strange python
#

its why i said its different in terms of utility/strength

#

not just dmg wise

stoic needle
#

iqd pog

#

why do you get all the good shit whispyr pepehands

balmy condor
#

i dunno why good things happen to bad people either man PepeHands

lean fossil
#

whispyr give me that trinket bud, i need it for raid ๐Ÿ˜„

fluid crystal
#

cool cool, I have just been running a gear compare mostly do sim them that will make it much easier

balmy condor
#

I'm still blue on heroic sire

#

like a fucking scrub

lean fossil
#

we are doing prog on heroic sire ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

balmy condor
#

I'll never be able to parse on sire

lean fossil
#

whys that?

balmy condor
#

because all of phase 3 is brain power for call outs

#

and markers

#

cause my raid is uhhhh......

#

mechanically challenged

#

I put bleeds up on sire and then run around soaking seeds for 15 seconds

#

its actually so sad

frozen jasper
#

Is the enven buff fix for sims why i lost like 50dps ST in sims? Was wondering

balmy condor
#

yes

stoic needle
#

wild, iqd sims higher than phial for me

balmy condor
#

blame koji for being fun police

balmy condor
frozen jasper
#

Haha well, the sims are more accurate now arent they ?

balmy condor
#

yeah but they also make me feel worse about myself

frozen jasper
#

But the minus 50 brought me back under 6k

stoic needle
#

2 rings and a phial or iqd and i'd be a 6k andy Sadge

frozen jasper
#

So its kinda sad

stoic needle
frozen jasper
#

Were the ptr sims for 9.0.5 also Affected By that?

stoic needle
#

i guess i should try to hit 1800

frozen jasper
#

So the sims in the pins arent that accurate ?

balmy condor
#

well depends on which ones

frozen jasper
#

The leggo ones from fuu for example

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

those haven't been entirely accurate for a while

stoic needle
#

I just realized that was a dslice sim so that's why iqd simmed better

balmy condor
#

because we've gotten buffed 3 times since then

frozen jasper
#

I mean the ones from 5 days ago

echo cargo
balmy condor
#

oh those

#

yes

#

I should rerun the sims

stoic needle
#

nah its amazing

balmy condor
#

but uh

if you bother me about it enough I'll do it

react to this if rerunning sims on a tuesday afternoon is a great time

yo bet

stoic needle
#

imagine not having 5 tabs of raidbots open rn

#

what a fucking busted trinket pepehands

balmy condor
#

FIVE?

stoic needle
#

6 tabs actually

balmy condor
#

I find your lack of sims disturbing

#

I think I had more

#

but I cleaned up this morning

stoic needle
#

rip bis list

balmy condor
#

truly the F of our times

stoic needle
#

you say you got rid of it because of the community, but i bet it was because you didn't wanna resim the dslice bis list LUL

balmy condor
#

nah I was actually just waking up to 2-3 dm's every tuesday and wednesday morning asking if they should take an item that simmed higher from the vault

#

because the bis list didn't have it

#

and that's when I knew

#

it's not helping

frozen jasper
#

LOL

stoic needle
#

lmao

#

i just know the game is gonna give me the dumb fucking vers/mastery ring at 226 next week now that I want a ring

#

i can just feel it

balmy condor
#

you'll get a phial

#

and then it'll give you nothing but trinkets

dark vigil
#

why do you not use dark theme

#

what the fuck

balmy condor
#

I use dark theme on everything except chrome

#

idk

dark vigil
#

dude.

#

fix that.

#

now.

dusky vault
# balmy condor it's not helping

It honestly doesnt tbh because no1 is getting every bis item. If m+ items in 9.0.5 could go to 226 then maybe but at 220 it's still the same problem

balmy condor
#

you want to complain about dark theme

#

I'll tell you right now

#

that fuu uses discord light mode from a browser

#

get mad about that

frozen jasper
#

Im out for today guys Pray for good vault tmrw

balmy condor

Also fuck my vault. My 2, 226 items are both minor upgrade and my 223 is a huge upgrade. I guess ill equip my 6th 223 item :pepeclown-1:

what does ass lack that would make it competitive with outlaw/sub?

fleet whale
#

well i think they announced it last week

#

but it's actually in ptr now

kindred crescent
#

if i MA for mythic+ would i go dashing for raid?

fleet whale
#

sin is already competitive with sub, and is arguably better

#

in 9.0.5, it will be competitive with outlaw in raid

#

but where sin is mainly lacking is it's baseline aoe kit

shut garnet
#

wait

#

have they reverted the taking off of 10% snd energy regen

#

or am i just blind

sleek otter
#

why, is it both in ptr?

shut garnet

no am just looking

sleek otter

XD

shut garnet

at the wowhead general post for 9.0.5

#

and its not on there

sonic hollow
fleet whale
#

snd energy regen is gone from sin

tribal marlin

it's just some scuffed data Mining

fleet whale
#

wowheads notes are jank

shut garnet

but it's possible they are iterating on spells

fleet whale
#

mmochampions are easier to read

balmy condor
#

3 weeks seems pretty close

fleet whale
#

i think he's asking you to be specific

balmy condor
#

it got buffed a bunch

#

it's getting buffed in 9.0.5

#

buffs > no buffs

#

therefore good

fleet whale
#

btw i was just thinking about this fun gimmick build in my head

shut garnet
#

sub is in the dumpster anyway

#

tis an insult to sin to compare it to that spec

fleet whale
#

MA with new flag, with lashing scars conduit

#

Nighstalker talented, could lead to insane opener damage

balmy condor
#

its possible

shut garnet
#

interested in some 45sec vendetta stonks

#

when 2 leggos are a thing

fleet whale
#

don't think were ever gonna use duskwalkers

#

unless if it's for some specific fight

shut garnet
#

id imagine if you could actually consistently get vendetta to 1 min on fights

#

it would be really good

fleet whale
#

maybe, but it's significantly behind Doomblade, dashing, and Zold

#

i mean in legion, you could get below 1 min cd vendetta's with duskwalker's

#

and it usually wasn't one of the two leggos you used

dark vigil
#

@kindred crescent dont know if someone answered you but you should go zoldyck in m+ and raid

kindred crescent
#

oh okay thank you

past valley
#

does flayed toxin benefit off of master poisoner and dashing scoundrel?

balmy condor

no, no

#

it doesn't benefit from anything

stoic needle
stoic needle
#

There's really no reason to run MA anymore

limber lion
#

MA sims higher on 2 min fights, but if you don't care for the minmaxing or whatever, sure, just run Zoldy.

stoic needle
#

Are there any 2 min fights in raid?

stoic needle
#

I could see it on sludge but I bet duskwalkers will be better soon

limber lion
#

Maybe for mythic, for Heroic MA will probably still beat it.

#

People usually run Zoldy in mythic as well just because the execute is so important. But if you're a padder, you should get more raw dps out of MA.

wait shit... what's the command for the bis list lol

balmy condor
#

that was the command

#

the command doesn't exist anymore

eternal totem
#

oh

#

how come?

balmy condor
#

I'm no longer supporting the list due to the impact it had on people making gearing decisions based on it

loud light
#

the command will one day exist again just to spit out the explanation of why there isn't a bis list

eternal totem
#

lol

#

ah i see

icy crater
#

!bis
"Secondaries don't matter, just use top gear sim until it stops going up"

eternal totem
#

that's crazy lol, im guessing people were using the bis like a bible be all end all list

balmy condor
#

I mean people legit were simming themselves

eternal totem
#

rather than as a supplement?

balmy condor
#

and then asking "how can this sim higher, it's not bis"

eternal totem
#

^ thought so

#

lmao

balmy condor
#

and that's just not how it works

#

so bis list, when using it for comparisons and stuff, solid stuff

#

has interesting data

#

but using it to gear yourself

#

is fucking int

spice spire
#

I love inting tho

balmy condor
#

so we're not doing that

#

rather not have that information public and hurt a minority, than have the information, and the majority uses it to troll

limber lion
#

1 out of 11 bis pieces down, only 10 more to go!!!

balmy condor
spice spire
#

Pulling the bis list is the equivalent of drawing exodia, good luck brethren

eternal totem
#

yep, i can appreciate that

#

no worries!

rapid lance

is there a haste % where I can expect less energy issues or I'm just bad? lol

limber lion
#

No.

good talk

balmy condor

sin is a slow spec

#

that's how it be

#

and sometimes, they really do are like those

ya feel?

it really be like how it do but most of the times it just be what it be ya know

I feel ya

you're a turbo spec with like 3 targets tho

some of my favorite moments in this game are when i'm sitting there, lust popped, potion drank, trinkets and vendetta on cd, hammering the boss with envenoms, and i think to myself... damn, it really sometimes almost actually be somewhat certainly around like that, don't it?

esp with new vw coming

balmy condor

Lmao, I sim 36 dps higher when I precast Memory 15s before the pull on 2min MA fight with Memory/Dreadfire.

Time to start requesting 20s pulltimers on Shriekwing.

Huge 0.6% damage increase.

You could keep the bis list around but make the default landing page just a giant paragraph that says

ILVL IS BETTER THAN THE ITEMS ON THIS LIST. WHEN IN DOUBT, SIM IT. SECONDARY STATS DONT REALLY MATTER :KEKlaugh:

balmy condor
#

that'll get glossed over so fast

#

you have no idea

stoic needle
#

If only people could read

alpine oasis
#

maybe have it point to a rick astley song?

balmy condor
#

bis lists in the past have tried that, and it didn't work there either

#

like I knew this day would come

#

but I wanted to see if people have changed

#

and the community was ready for data like that

#

and not just ook ook gear good

stoic needle
#

Blame classic

balmy condor
#

like fuu's spreadsheet used to be a private thing as well that he would send to a couple people who were interested in showing the numbers

#

but then he asked us like should I just make it public for transparency, etc

#

and that went over fairly well, even though people were definitely confused by it

#

so I thought hey maybe community has wisened up, we'll do a bis list

#

and it was going okay

#

and then sin got more popular

#

and the old problems came back, as expected

deft rampart
balmy condor
#

some do

#

and then they question the sim, because bis list no say that

Does Nightstalker snapshot garrote/sepsis damage?

NS should be used on a nightstalker rupture tho

also should be noted that in torg, nightstalker and subterfuge do not stack

stoic needle

That's so lame

limber lion

I'm just thinking about this cheese opener with EP, MFD, Nightstalker, MA lege and double on-use trinkets

#

:----)

#

But yeah sure is, I always Pog when I get a free Nightstalker-talent then I forget about it and just play like I would with just Subterfuge

#

Where instead you should be changing the rotation to account for NS

#

Oh wells

balmy condor
#

ep not buffing trinkets either

limber lion
#

Yeah and soon MA trinket cheese is gone too :''(

#

Just tried Sepsis out and it doesn't look like it snapshots.

Just Garrote.

Not sure how relevant info that is because well who runs NS and who wants to open with Sepsis

#

The one advantage of bis list is for ideal legendary stating and slot but even that is minor and for most people that won't get 225 ilvl then making your legendary in your weakest slot is usually the best

For some reason t3 boots on my server are 27k and t2 legs are also 27k so debating if that alone is worth making the boots > feet lol

boots > feet Hmmmm

you should craft legs though

350k for mythic BOEs is way too much for one slot to me

You can also get 226 from pvp

#

The vault is an option too but a bit of a crapshoot

nocturne herald
#

I'd been trying PvP but RBGs have been annoying finding groups and my last 3-4 losses have felt like their entirely lopsided gearwise but I guess that's just what happens with yolos lol

I guess t2 legs and upgrading my MA ring to 210 is probably the best use of dust and stats tho
