sub is kinda dogshit on 2-3 targets which is a large part of M+ nowadays

worldly echo
#

Yea I agree there. For sure.

#

Very hard to consistently put out good cleave numbers as sub.

stoic needle
#

honestly i didn't even think that alacrity was worth tracking for a while KekW just goes to show that you dont need a bunch of WAs to pump

worldly echo
#

AoE is fine though.

stoic needle
#

its still kinda meh on aoe tbh

#

sin does better cleave and aoe

#

and comparable single target

worldly echo
#

Oh wow really.

stoic needle
#

Crimson tempest is just better than black powder

worldly echo
#

That’s great to hear.

stoic needle
#

and your ruptures actually do damage, and you have subterfuge garottes

iron orchid
worldly echo
#

I will give it a whirl next M+ I think.

iron orchid
stoic needle
#

and you can burn your CD(vendetta) on prideful and not really care because it'll be up again for the next boss

worldly echo
#

Thanks for responses @stoic needle

stoic needle
#

and it's not a huge deal for AOE regardless so you aren't punished for using CDs on pride like other classes might be

#

yeah ofc

#

i enjoy M+ as sin quite a bit

#

you do really consistent damage all the time

topaz saffron
#

The AoE rotation feels smooth

stoic needle
#

but you don't burst as high as other classes

worldly echo
#

I did a lot in BfA and then went sub and I do love the change of style t has from sin. But I loved sin more in M+ BfA.

pulsar sluice
#

sick dude @stoic needle

#

man wish i could use plater and elvui at the same time

stoic needle
#

tbh plater's nameplates are just better than elvui's

#

i use everything else elvui and plater nameplates

pulsar sluice
#

Yeah but wouldn't it just be conflicting

balmy condor
#

No?

#

Just turn off the elvui nameplates

topaz field
#

question for assassination rogues that are better than I am. Would flagellation be better than sepsis with its upcoming rework?

topaz field
#

Just in general, I really only expect to raid and do m+

balmy condor
#

We have pins for raid

#

And it’s about equal in m+ as well

stoic needle
topaz field
#

Thanks, I'm really new to rogue and didn't know what would be better

stoic needle
#

the health/energy/combo point bar that's in the middle of my UI is from plater too

bleak sedge
#

TiL people have alacrity WAs. maybe i should aswell

balmy condor
#

People have what

#

You mean like tracking the buff?

pulsar sluice
#

tbh im weird, like this is what i use for outlaw

#

im on spriest rn btw so dont mind me

bleak sedge
balmy condor
#

That seems really useless

pulsar sluice
#

is there any sin wa's that are like that

bleak sedge
pulsar sluice
bleak sedge
#

i dont even have WAs to track my poison

bleak sedge
#

Oh wait

#

that whole thing is a WA lmao

pulsar sluice
#

LOL

#

ye

bleak sedge
#

Jesus christ that is atrocious XD

pulsar sluice
#

its not like that though

#

ill show it in actual practice

bleak sedge
#

Why not use your actionbar if you use ur WA like that

pulsar sluice
#

cuz its a little more elevated from my keys so im able to look at my character more

#

and the way my nameplates are set up is how i have em in almost every mmos ever

bleak sedge
#

you could move your actionbar if you use elvui

pulsar sluice
#

like thats how my nameplates are usually

balmy condor
#

I could never play like that

stoic needle
#

and my rogue WA collection which has the PRD was and other WAs i've made in it

pulsar sluice
#

whats prd

stoic needle
#

personal resource display

pulsar sluice
#

ooo

stoic needle
#

the health/combopoint/energy bar in the middle of the pictures

#

blizzard's default one is ugly, plater's is pretty nice

pulsar sluice
#

where do u keep your targets hp and target of target

stoic needle
#

Next to that

balmy condor
#

target of target I keep firmly in the "disabled" category

#

personally

stoic needle
balmy condor
#

no but why would knowing the target of target be important for that

pulsar sluice
#

well i pvp sometimes too haha

stoic needle
#

Because then you can know if the mob you're killing is about to obliterate you

plush umbra
#

if you got aggro you're dead that's it

gleaming tinsel
#

Target of target irrelevant for pvp lol

plush umbra
balmy condor
gleaming tinsel
#

^

stoic needle
pulsar sluice
#

how is it irrelevant

#

exactly

#

thats the big point i was gonna say next

vital tapir
#

already did 😂

gleaming tinsel
#

You can see that on BGE my dude

plush umbra
#

Well you know you're being scouted

gleaming tinsel
#

Which is basically a mandatory mod for bgs lol

balmy condor
#

@stoic needle think about it like this. The problem we're trying to fix is not being able to see when things are hitting you, yeah? Given these two solutions, which would you rather have:

  1. Nameplates, which you're already looking at, highlighting when they're aggro'd to you
  2. Having to look at one specific target's of target to know if that one target is now targetting you instead of the tank
median igloo
#

Go back to your cage @gleaming tinsel

gleaming tinsel
#

I’ve got lock picking idiot

median igloo
#

Fffffff

gleaming tinsel
#

Being an assassination zug zug is my cage pol

median igloo
#

I'm defo gonna try doomblade in 9.0.5

gleaming tinsel
#

Doomblade sucks play zoldyck

balmy condor
#

?

pulsar sluice
#

@stoic needle which wa's u using here so i dont import wrong ones

spice spire
#

???

pulsar sluice
spice spire
#

Doomblade is def super strong ST in 9.0.5. Even now, in some cases it’ll out sim zold.
Doomblade definitely does poorly in Mythic+ by comparison

stoic needle
gleaming tinsel
#

Idk doomblade just seems like it’s slightly better on a sim so it’s for parsing on irrelevant content

#

Execute too good for prog

balmy condor
#

3% "slightly" better

gleaming tinsel
#

Did they buff it again? I thought it was like 1% better

balmy condor
#

envenom bug fix hurt zold, 9.0.5 buffs doomblade

median igloo
#

The obv answer is to make both doomblade and zold

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

dashing is also 3% up

#

could make that

gleaming tinsel
#

But I already made a sephuz

stoic needle
#

Dashing 🤢

gleaming tinsel
#

So I gotta pick 1

median igloo
#

LOL

balmy condor
#

either way you'd probably want a single target option over zoldyck

pulsar sluice
#

for what fights would you not play doomblade though except for the obvious ones like sunking or invera

ornate lake
#

wait, just to double check. Patchwerk 5 min sim includes execute phase right? (so zoldyck is calculated there?)

feral merlin
stoic needle
#

It does include execute

#

Patchwerk execute is as if the fight starts at 20%

torpid spoke
#

will it be better to save soul ash for doomblade?

#

or should I finish upgrading mark of sin / zoldyck

stoic needle
#

Finish upgrading zoldyck

balmy condor
#

boss starts at 20% hp

ornate lake
#

R4 doomblade simming 110 dps higher than R3 zoldyk. Time to test on ST raid fights that arent progression

ornate raptor
#

I don’t know what i should make for the 9.05 patch. Doomblade or dashin will be wait for end results when it comes closer to patch release

stoic needle
#

Doomblade is cooler imo

#

It also seems to be slightly more dps than dashing

#

But waiting until closer to 9.0.5 release isn't a bad idea

feral merlin
#

Takes 4-5 weeks to make a R4 right?

balmy condor
#

yes

feral merlin
#

I have 210 zold, should I just save all my ash till tuning for 9.0.5 is here as my rogue is an alt

stoic needle
#

No you should max your zold

feral merlin
#

Bet

stoic needle
balmy condor
#

oh I just have a tick mark for execute

stoic needle
#

pepehmm interesting

#

Omg wait is that what that mark is

#

Holy shit I've been staring at that this whole time and I could never figure out what the fuck it was KEKlaugh

ornate lake
#

Plater has a build in execute marker

spice spire
#

Imagine color changing being ur mechanism for change when ur colorblind LMAO couldn’t be me pepehands

stoic needle
slender trail
#

how is assassination in torghast?

stoic needle
#

It's the best rogue spec for torghast

#

Assassination unironically scales insanely well with all of the damage amps and massive amounts of stats you get. Master poisoner and leeching poison makes you very tanky and if you can't facetank stuff you can just kite forever

#

Unceasing chain link turns garotte into a monster nuke

torpid spoke
#

mark for death + dispatch for outlaw

#

is pretty fun

#

with killing spree

stoic needle
#

Yeah that's cute and all but sin is just better

torpid spoke
#

and master assassin

stoic needle
#

You can get the 0 vial cd +vial gives defensives build as sin, and be basically invincible between those defensives and the leech

slender trail
#

do you run poison bomb or crimson tempest (in torghast)?

balmy condor
#

CT

spice spire
grave cove
balmy condor
#

Garrote is a generator

stoic needle
#

It's any combo point builder

balmy condor
#

Chain link affects generator

stoic needle
#

Chain link + subterfuge + vendetta

grave cove
#

Got it will try on my TC run 😄 What ilvl did you guys have when u cleared TC lair 8?

stoic needle
#

One time I had 3x chain links and subterfuge garotte basically one shotted everything I hit it with

balmy condor
#

Imagine doing twisting

stoic needle
#

I haven't even done the first quest KEKlaugh

stoic needle
#

There's gonna be a craft able one in a few weeks in 9.0.5

balmy condor
#

Yeah and then they announced that all mounts will work in the maw

#

So I couldn’t be fucked anymore

stoic needle
#

The mount does look cool I'll admit

#

But I'll just do the puzzle one

spice spire
#

The real play is multiple chain links with fok in aoe. Or when sepsis gets stupid powers

limber lion
#

Double sepsis-powers can one shot any biggie if you pull 3 mobs with it. It's huge and so much fun. Useless against most of the final bosses though :(

frozen karma
#

is it just me or does shiv not show up in casts/timeline in wclogs?

#

trying to find decent NF openers

limber lion
#

No, blame Blizzard for that

#

Apparently it's coded differently and doesn't have a cast-action tied to it - or something like that

balmy condor
#

yep

frozen karma
#

damn, that sucks, thanks for the quick answer tho

#

what would be the go to opener? guides seems kinda outdated

#

for MA

balmy condor
#

guides are updated

frozen karma
#

I checked the ravenholdt one, said updated last nov, I guess wowhead is better?

balmy condor
#

that's just an error on the last updated time I think

#

I remember asking weak for changes like 3-4 weeks ago

frozen karma
#

Alright ty

balmy condor
#

!guide

balmy condor
#

all of these should be fine

#

but if you think you see an issue with one let me know and I'll take a look

frozen karma
#

yeah np, was just concerned about the date

iron orchid
#

Did my best parse on heroic sludge while still talented in EP CT for M+

limber lion
#

Good, next time you do it with proper talents, you'll blast like a mofo.

pastel osprey
#

so are we going venthyr in 9.0.5 ?

pulsar sluice
#

@stoic needle so i loaded up plater and it asked me which one like you said but I selected plater and my elvui nameplates are still on

balmy condor
#

go into elv and turn them off then

balmy condor
stoic needle
dim mirage
#

staying nf

pulsar sluice
#

also not sure why the wa's are like anchored to each other

slender trail
#

i already switched because I Believe (tm)

pastel osprey
pulsar sluice
#

they are still on, let me try a reload

slender trail
#

yes to venthyr

limber lion
#

I had a Sire pull where I changed to BS/MA talentas but I forgot to change my gear and used the MA lege for the pull with MA talented as well... Good thing we wiped :'))

slender trail
#

!ma

pastel osprey
#

@balmy condor u going venthyr ?

balmy condor
#

yes

limber lion
#

Venthyr-gang right here

stoic needle
#

You need to turn that on in plater, it's called 'personal bar'

slender trail
#

is there an MA opener outlined anywhere? or should i just check log timelines

stoic needle
#

Mut snd mut rup

slender trail
#

sorry, i should have specified in dungeons w/ subterfuge

pulsar sluice
#

wat do

frozen karma
#

you have fun

limber lion
stoic needle
#

Oh you also have to enable the personal resource display in the blizzard options enabled

frozen karma
#

trying to figure it out

limber lion
#

Feelcraft it out

pulsar sluice
#

i do have it enabled

limber lion
#

Subt+MA combo is kinda awkward because you want to maximize the garrote usage from Subt which in return devalues MA

slender trail
#

yeah i'd say if you can chain into vanish and get the big dot crits it makes sense. hard to spend that 4s spreading gars, which makes subterfuge not feel like the best pairing with MA (not saying it isn't, just they are a bit at odds with each other)

#

exactly

limber lion
#

If I was running MA I would gar-gar-gar-fok-ct opener

#

Apply 1 rupture after

#

Then sepsis-shiv-vanish-gar-gar-gar-ct

#

Or you can fully cheese MA and use Hidden Blades talent :')

stoic needle
#

@pulsar sluice

balmy condor
stoic needle
limber lion
pulsar sluice
#

yeah i have the same stuff, copied ur profile remember

stoic needle
#

from what i can see in the background it looks like it's working

pulsar sluice
#

ye but i can't like move the debuffs else where

stoic needle
#

do you not want them to move with the resource display or do you want to move them down or up while staying attached

pulsar sluice
#

you see how you have them here? i want to be able to move them under/above the target

#

my enemy bar/focus bar not showing up too and they are enabled

#

is this profile old or something lol

stoic needle
#

well the focus bar and enemy bar are part of unitframes which this doesn't modify so i'm nto sure about that

#

no ijust exported it an hour ago lol

pulsar sluice
#

thats how it looks

stoic needle
#

show me a picture of what your nameplates look like

#

ah wtf lol

#

what are the position settings for your PRD buffs and PRD debuffs weakauras

#

i don't know why yours look like that. I even deleted mine and loaded them from the website and they're in the proper spot for me

limber lion
#

@balmy condor How's the defensives-spreadsheet coming along? kappat

stoic needle
#

its weird that the SND one is in the right place but the others aren't

balmy condor
#

spreadsheet stylizing is hard man

limber lion
#

You can say that again.

balmy condor
#

but should be able to start crowdfunding logs and shit next week

limber lion
#

Good shit

pulsar sluice
#

i just changed the pos

stoic needle
#

i'm confused. do you want it anchored to the PRD display or not

pulsar sluice
#

it seems the position was just off

#

but my original question was how do i move the debuffs one to the target bar (which im clearly missing dunno how)

stoic needle
#

it doesn't, those are two separate things. the debuffs one is for single target in raids and situations where thr nameplate might not be easily visible so you can still track your dots. the stuff on the nameplates is part of the plater profile

dim shoal
#

@balmy condor Please correct me if I misunderstand something, but zoldyck still is the best choice for assa right? Cause mystlers sims don’t show it once in the calculations

balmy condor
#

overall yes

#

single target no

stoic needle
dim shoal
#

How far is it behind in ST?

#

Like 200?

pulsar sluice
balmy condor
stoic needle
#

but the weakauras are still out of place

pulsar sluice
#

is the target bar like an extra wa im missing

stoic needle
#

no that's just the default elvui target unitframe

#

that i moved next to where the PRD usually rests

#

it doesn't move with anything else because elvui can't anchor unit frames to the personal resource display

proud ore
#

Yo I like this

#

I’m late. Link?

stoic needle
#

haha

#

one sec let me update these with pics so you know what to choose

rocky ruin
#

We going venthyr in 9.05 right?

balmy condor
#

if you'd like

#

fae is still good

rocky ruin
#

Nah i found the venthyr ability from the begin good but the praxis was still kinda off

balmy condor
#

then venthyr it is

stoic needle
proud ore
#

Sure just @ me

#

I doubt I’ll ever swap from fae after swapping kyrian

iron orchid
#

Stream ready soon, done recruiting new guild members, we have no boomie tonight, but we are gonna start with Mists 17 to warm up with a fury warrior @spice spire

proud ore
#

But I’m not sin. Only gave idle gear waiting for our time

stoic needle
#

yeah that's why i'm updating it. i know not everyone plays sin or plays other specs and i'd like to accommodate it at least a little

bleak sedge
#

Heyo guys do i use CT on single target in M?

stoic needle
#

yes

spice spire
#

POLYVALENCE_DEI

#

sorry caps

exotic pine
#

Just started ass rogue for first time since legion, was taking sepsis a bad choice ?

limber lion
#

No, it's the best choice.

#

For now.

exotic pine
#

Wasn’t sure if guides were up to date ty ty

#

Seems to play like artifact ability in a way

limber lion
#

Eh not really. The new Flagellation is closer to the artifact ability, but still not quite.

exotic pine
#

Fair

limber lion
#

Sepsis is a great choice and Soulshape is busted. :--)

stoic needle
#

I'm gonna miss soulshape

#

Door is a poor substitute

limber lion
#

Yeah, I'm still not 100% on Venthyr. Still like 80/20 and only because of Soulshape

#

But glad to make the switch to Venthyr now especially with flying coming in with patch 9.1

stoic needle
#

Door can be almost as good but it requires you to react to things 1.5 second earlier

limber lion
#

Revendreth is such a pain in the ass

stoic needle
#

And when you're using soulshape to save yourself from dying that may just mean you die KEKlaugh

#

Revendreth is ok once you unlock the mirrors

#

And if you have gliders

limber lion
#

Couldn't do that with doos.

#

door*

bleak sedge
#

how do you guys open in aoe? im struggling to use snd

balmy condor
#

we don't use snd in aoe

bleak sedge
#

and in cleave vs 3 ?

balmy condor
#

you would get it up after CT, before ruptures

bleak sedge
#

alright thx

balmy condor
#

you can also get it up before CT

#

if you'd like to get the single target rolling a little more

limber lion
#

Holy shit

#

They added a PI-segment to logs

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

its poggers

limber lion
stoic needle
#

Now I never have to give a shit about PI again

limber lion
#

It says I got PI on Huntsman, when in fact I had PI on Shriekwing and other bosses as well

stoic needle
#

Thank Jesus

limber lion
#

Makes my logs look better than they are. I definitely had PI, not sure why it's not picking it up.

fleet anchor
#

Maybe report on the WCL fourms

stoic needle
#

Jesus christ dude, 9000 dps on huntsman?

fleet anchor
#

Probably helps to give examples for tracking it down

limber lion
#

I just reported it to their WCL-discord

fleet anchor
limber lion
#

But I had PI on several other pulls I mean

fleet anchor
#

Ah I see what you mean now

limber lion
#

It should show up on Shriekwing, Lady, Sludge etc.

#

Pretty much every boss other than HD/SLG/Sire

fleet anchor
#

Gotcha yeah

limber lion
fleet anchor
#

I mean I suspect the detection definitely has to be off

#

Based on the relatively low percentage of top parses for some specs that I know almost always have PI

#

Like this guy here shows as non-PI

#

And got PI 3 times during the fight lol

stoic needle
fleet anchor
#

Oh well, at least they are working on it

#

Will be nice when it's working

limber lion
#

Yeah. It's relatively new (wasn't implemented this morning if I recall correctly) so it's pretty baggy. But I'm really glad that they actually added a PI-feature.

limber lion
tawny shell
#

Where does it show the pi icon? I don’t see it on mobile

balmy condor
#

logs on mobile is mega fucked

limber lion
#

The mobile view limits a lot of things you can see, it's the very last thing shown on rankings.

tawny shell
#

Yeah figured

limber lion
#

I don't think you can even see talents or something

tawny shell
#

Unluck

limber lion
#

like it's super limited

tawny shell
#

Oh I see in that screen shot

thorny shore
#

why warcraftlogs is not showing shiv cast times or in timelines

limber lion
#

It's Blizzard's fault, not theirs.

#

It's missing a cast-action so it can't be tracked by the logs. You can still see when it was applied if you look at damage done-timeline

#

I asked them if they could hard-force the debuff-application as a cast, and they say they could do it but wouldn't. Reason was "might be better to keep it as a reflection of how the game works rather than starting to modify things"

arctic walrus
#

@fleet anchor it's not retroactive so any logs prior to today will not have it implemented, unless the person chooses to reupload the logs

fleet anchor
#

That seems a bit odd

limber lion
#

That's not true though because my Huntsman kill is on the same log as the other kills.

#

And only the Huntsman kill is tracked.

fleet anchor
#

Could be they are re-scanning but haven't actually processed everything yet

vestal wharf
#

So is it worth it to craft Dashing right now, or should I just go Doomblade for next patch?

limber lion
#

Kihra said: "It's not retroactive, so kind of useless right now, I am mulling over whether or not I should try a global recrawl.

(A global recrawl of Nathria at this point would be a dangerous thing with huge repercussions.)"

#

And that he's doing top 500 dps/hps ranks for all specs

balmy condor
#

isn't kihra a she

limber lion
#

That's what I thought based on his avatar

#

But here's his twitter

#

Looks like a dude to me.

balmy condor
balmy condor
limber lion
#

Yeah, I was 100% certain as well that he was a she until 3 minutes ago

balmy condor
#

I mean, you'd think I would get it too considering I got an anime girl for a pfp

#

but it gets me sometimes too

bleak sedge
#

i just ran an m+ with no soulbind active... yikes

slow marsh
#

Can someone tell me how long the IQD stat buff lasts? Can't seem to find duration

balmy condor
#

20 sec iirc

pulsar sluice
#

what do you code simcraft in @fleet anchor

balmy condor
#

simcraft is c++

pulsar sluice
#

ooo

#

im actually learning that right now, more of a python guy

balmy condor
fleet anchor
#

Yes C++

slow marsh
#

So would pairing IQD with sheet music be troll or na? I now have some solid choices for trinks and dunno which pairing would be best. I feel like every time I sim them I get different results

#

I have 210 IQD, 213 sheet music, 213 skulker, 213 hate chain, and 220 stone legion

#

I feel like the 20 sec haste would be better than constant ~110 vers just as having on demand cds seems nice but idk

balmy condor
#

I personally wouldn't suggest sheet music

#

as getting the full benefit of it is actually quite rough

#

running a sim will tell you which order to cast double on use in

#

but 99% of the time, you'll use the IQD with cooldowns, and then the second one later

bleak sedge
#

u guys have any talent tips for torghast?

balmy condor
#

master poisoner, subt, mfd, leeching, iron wire, alac, ct

bleak sedge
#

thx

slow marsh
#

Yeah IQD on pull is super nice for sure. mostly just trying to determine if just sticking with stone legion is the play vs hate chain or sheet. Also I noticed that memory of past sins is getting used a ton...is that similar to stone legion where it's just super good the more people are using it or something? I dont seem to recall that showing as a dps increase on my droptimizer sim

balmy condor
#

it has a similar mechanic

#

but its also just a good trinket

#

pretty sure a 220 stone legion and a 213 hateful are both better though

stoic needle
#

going on ilvl you'd probably be best off wwith stone legion and hateful chain

slow marsh
stoic needle
#

try doing that on sludgefist, or denathrius when the adds are dying, or zymox when a dancer is in a beam or a trap

balmy condor
#

the buff refreshes when you hit them btw

stoic needle
#

the sim assumes you get all of the dancers, and if you don't get all of the dancers it's worse than all of the other trinkets

slow marsh
#

uhhh....

balmy condor
#

so ideally you would actually delay getting each dancer

#

to maximize the uptime

slow marsh
#

So it's actually more than 20sec

balmy condor
#

is it 30?

#

might be 30

slow marsh
#

It's 20 sec base but if it refreshes

balmy condor
#

what trinket

#

are we talking sheet music?

slow marsh
#

yes

balmy condor
#

oh

#

yes

#

so from what I remember (I haven't actually seen someone use it, it's quite uncommon)

viscid coral

Hi, i just joined the discord, somebody knows if venthir is better than night fae with the new changes?

balmy condor
#

sheet music is:

  1. 20 seconds
  2. hitting a dancer refreshes the 20 seconds
  3. the dancers last for 5 seconds
  4. each dancer gives a fourth of the total buff
viscid coral
#

I'm rly tired of being night fae tbh

stoic needle
#

join us

slow marsh
#

So in theory you should get 35-40 secs of haste on a 1.5 min cd

viscid coral
stoic needle
#

in theory sheet music isn't bad, in practice it's a whole lot of effort that might get you killed with all of the near instakill mechanics flying around

slow marsh
#

They don't spawn any farther away than pelegos combat med

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

pelagos combat med isn't that great either

#

but at least it gives you something baseline if you can't get all of the orbs

slow marsh
#

I know that's why i swapped to NF xD

#

So seems like sheet music is kind of bait then?

balmy condor
#

a little bit

#

not much

stoic needle
#

if sheet music gave like 2x the haste it did currently it might be worth it, but as it is now it's a lot of effort for not a preportionate reward

balmy condor
#

it can just fuck you over

#

if it sims like 15 dps higher or whatever

#

I wouldn't use it

stoic needle
#

why bother when you have 3 other trinkets that are just as good

balmy condor
#

yeah

slow marsh
#

yeah that's where i'm at. my trinks are like all super close

balmy condor
#

you got some good trinkets aside from that

#

so I would personally take hateful or slg

stoic needle
#

i run sins/slg now so i can't complain

slow marsh
#

with IQD?

balmy condor
#

ye

stoic needle
#

the phial still haunts me worldbuffs

pulsar sluice
#

im glad i have a phial early in to the tier lol

stoic needle
#

226?

pulsar sluice
#

Naw 220, been slacking on mythics

stoic needle
#

you're gonna have to refarm one just like me when they inevitably upgrade the valor ilvl cap

pulsar sluice
#

yeah by then ill have 15+s and shit

#

I just havent gotten around to it

#

I took a small detour to get 1800 in rbgs for some vers haste 220s

limber lion
#

I like Dreadfire. You just press it and it does damage. Very Pog.

split veldt
#

alright who has a good plater profile for me

balmy condor
feral merlin
#

Gilroy-Bold font on everything

balmy condor
#

mine are on there

stoic needle
#

gilroy bold is BIS font

split veldt
sleek otter
#

so is Venthyr with doomblade looking like bis atm?

#

I swear if I have to level another convenant :((((((((

balmy condor
#

yeah venthyr with dashing seems to be bis

#

doomblade is bugged in game to be underperforming a little

#

if that gets fixed it's back to doomblade

#

they're both good options

#

just kinda pick what you'd like

sleek otter
#

damn, guess Im going venthyr now. if its bis in pve then itd prob do good in pvp 2

#

doomblade is bis in pvp atm so actually pretty dope

split veldt
#

@balmy condor whats this green bar? i know shiv shows up there too, but cant figure out what this is lol, also why does my other trinket show up on the right when it's no on use?

balmy condor
#

envenom

split veldt
#

ah fuck

#

hurp durp

balmy condor
#

the trinket on the right is just the second trinket

#

I have it in case I have double on use

#

also I haven't been venthyr or necrolord

#

which is why that slot next to vanish is missing

pliant apex
#

any advice on parsing well on council heroic? its just too unorganized

balmy condor
#

I haven't updated for those covenants

split veldt
balmy condor
#

but shouldn't be too bad

#

you can copy paste the vendetta one

#

and just change the trigger to the covenant ability

#

and that'll probably work a-o-k

limber lion
split veldt
#

oh just realized sepsis isnt on ther eeither

balmy condor
#

let me log in real quick and check

split veldt
limber lion
#

Also most top parses are doing FSN which accounts to the most amount of adds available in p2 and p3. There's some logs for other rotations as well (like my rank 3 doing SNF) but the optimal setup is FSN.

#

NSF is the worst if you're just looking to parse, however it's the most played rotation because it's also the easiest to execute with pugs. Finding a group that does a good rotation (for parsing) can be hard.

#

I wouldn't get too discouraged if you don't parse too great doing NSF. It's a shit fight.

#

@pliant apex

bleak sedge
#

should i craft zoldyck lvl 4 or wait and maybe craft doomblade?

limber lion
#

Doomblade is only bis in pure ST.

split veldt
#

im crafting level 4 on tuesday

#

fuckit

wet heron
#

we dont use exsanguinate even on sludge first right?

balmy condor
wet heron
#

ty, even if that makes me very sad

pulsar sluice
#

is there no one set up for all for raids

#

I was peeping wcl and it seems different in cleave fights

#

kinda lame imma have to carry tomes now haha

limber lion
#

You can just run Blindside/Subterfuge/Vigor/Alacrity/Poison Bomb on every boss

#

Master Assa sims better in pure ST but it's not a night and day difference.

pulsar sluice
#

yeah ill prob just have to play with some sims

slow marsh
#

i think if you are NF its bigger

pulsar sluice
#

whys that @slow marsh

slow marsh
#

but not sure. mikihasa was talking about it but dont remember if it was for ST or for m+

#

Because you can Sepsis from stealth with MA and get huge ticks

limber lion
#

Yes, it sims higher when you allign Sepsis with Vendetta.

#

Vanish also lines up much better with Master Assa.

slow marsh
#

sepsis vanish vendetta

pulsar sluice
#

i could see myself doing that for like sludge

slow marsh
#

not sure if its huge like 100 dps but i think its huge like 30-40dps

limber lion
#

If you want to cheese Sludge, you can use my big boy pillar burst build.

pulsar sluice
#

you going for big enevenoms?

limber lion
#

As you can see on the damage graph, it's pretty Pog.

#

Maximizing damage done during the 100% damage window and 4s Master Assa window with the legendary.

pulsar sluice
#

everytime i see elaborate with ns i think big envenom

limber lion
#

Yes. 3 Envenoms + Dreadfire during Master Assa window

#

Around 400k damage burst in 7 seconds.

pulsar sluice
#

even outdpsed the feral

#

that's what I like to see

rigid wyvern
#

Whats the current consensus on soulbind for NF M+

limber lion
#

It's really fun to play. You literally see yourself shoot up in Details.

limber lion
rigid wyvern
#

I assume first strike but ive seen people mentioning herbs

#

alright thanks

slow marsh
#

You can herbs if you're using MA leggo

limber lion
stoic needle
#

Herbs for tyrannical

#

I believe in the MA NS HB build prayge

slow marsh
#

yeah i was messing with it earlier

#

but just on dummies

rigid wyvern
#

are you snapshotting CT on opener or something?

slow marsh
#

No you use hidden blades

#

with NS

limber lion
#

Max stacked Hidden Blades from stealth

stoic needle
#

You go EP NS poison Katar HB

slow marsh
#

an do 40k dps for one second

limber lion
#

Big burst

pulsar sluice
rigid wyvern
#

ah

#

not having subterfuge in pvp feels godawful imo

limber lion
stoic needle
#

It's probably good for epic BGS

slow marsh
#

...

stoic needle
#

Poison bomb doesn't do a ton in pvp anyway

slow marsh
#

Its not lol

rigid wyvern
#

aight im trying this hidden blades cheese this sounds hilarious

pulsar sluice
#

no why would i play hidden blades

stoic needle
#

Epic bgs are a complete meme regardless

#

Because big fucking damage that's why

slow marsh
#

You want to kidney someone in a poison bomb and burst then with envenom mfd envenom

limber lion
pulsar sluice
#

oh i didnt read HB

#

my bad

#

naw I just roll with bomb

stoic needle
slow marsh
#

Yes its a meme build we are working on for M+ that @balmy condor came up with

#

I mean sure but

#

If you want to burst just play sub

stoic needle
slow marsh
#

sin pvp is about big envenoms through armor

#

and silence

rigid wyvern
#

is it M4D or vigor for the meme build?

stoic needle
#

Yeah I know. I specifically said epic bgs because they're a meme

#

Meme builds for meme bgs

pulsar sluice
#

you dont need subterfuge to silence tho

rigid wyvern
#

you need subterfuge to cheap shot 3 people

slow marsh
#

Though i'm sure if you were up against a poorly geared group you could scare them pretty good with a fatty HB from stealth

pulsar sluice
#

thats a waste of energy on sin

wide ridge
#

how should my opener look like with MA talent + sepsis? using zoldyck as leggo

#

cause my sim is looking weird

slow marsh
#

You wnat subt for cheap into strong garrote

wide ridge
#

it's telling me to sespis out of stealth>mut>snd>garrote>shiv>rupture>vendetta>vanish...

slow marsh
#

but that's all getting into #pvp

slow marsh
#

yep that's right

wide ridge
#

so i do a

#

2cp rupture?

slow marsh
#

i mean not that there's one right way

#

but yeah

stoic needle
#

Openers don't really matter is the main takeaway

#

Any min maxing you do for them is less than 10 dps

rigid wyvern
#

so what happens in this hidden blades build after you hit hidden blades lol

slow marsh
#

You want to get buffs up asap then you can pandemic them

#

rupture and snd both give you energy regen right now so you just want them up even if its 2cp

limber lion
slow marsh
#

but with MA it should be 4

limber lion
#

Muti > Snd > Muti > GARROTE > Rupture if 4-5 cp, Muti if 3 > Rupture if you didn't before > Sepsis > Shiv > Muti > Vanish > Envenom > Muti > Envenom

#

Vendetta after Rupture

wide ridge
#

hm

pliant apex
#

talk amongst some top players on frostmourne, next tier sin can be top spec

#

sound believable?

rigid wyvern
#

I would argue the point stands that you still 2cp snd in that opener

slow marsh
pliant apex
stoic needle
pliant apex
#

mut-sd-mut-garrote-rupture, always

stoic needle
#

We do big dam now

raw dagger
#

Does Subterfuge buff a garrote if you use it with Sepsis?

stoic needle
#

No

stoic needle
#

It should but it doesn't

#

Because blizzard hates fun

slow marsh
limber lion
raw dagger
#

rip, thanks tho

slow marsh
#

But as it stands outlaw is just better because of its overall power in ST

stoic needle
#

We will be higher st dps than outlaw though even with zoldyck

slow marsh
#

If you have something that does equal ST but also cleaves up to 6 for free it will be better

#

So really it depends on the fights next tier and what other help we get

stoic needle
#

It depends on the fights next tier tbh

#

Lol

slow marsh
#

If there's more ST fights and/or any hard dps check then yeah probably we will be best spec

#

But not by very much me thinks

stoic needle
#

I feel like ranged classes like boomkin and mage do enough aoe damage overall that you can sacrifice the aoe loss for the consistency and execute of sin

#

Especially considering a lot of the aoe this tier is kinda padding...

limber lion
#

Assa is a really good progression spec because it doesn't suffer from downtime as much as Sub/Outlaw.

slow marsh
#

Well of course it's padding

limber lion
#

If we do equal damage, Assa wins overall.

#

You can do mechanics and still dps.

slow marsh
#

yep

#

but that's not so much 'best spec' that's just ease of use

#

Outlaw potential would still be higher with player skill

balmy condor
#

@rigid wyvern lemme know how the meme works

stoic needle
#

I'd say those things are correlated

#

Why play harder for higher output that isn't really required

#

When you could use that brain power to not get hit with ravage

#

It's why no one plays feral

#

Even though it absolutely pumps

limber lion
slow marsh
#

Cleave

limber lion
#

In a world where all 3 specs do equal damage in sims, Assa wins.

slow marsh
#

and rtb

limber lion
#

Rtb is not skill related whatsoever

slow marsh
#

in and of itself that ability creates such high peaks and low valleys

#

its not

#

rng

#

but still

limber lion
#

You said potential is higher with player skill

stoic needle
#

But again, if that cleave isn't really needed to down the bosses, why bother?

rigid wyvern
#

@balmy condor do i go M4D or Vigor for the meme build, want to make sure i got it right

limber lion
#

It's just a matter of what the fight is like and whether or not the RNG gods bless you.

slow marsh
#

yeah

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

The other thing is that there a bunch of people who just really don't like playing outlaw for whatever reason

#

For that alone I think sin will become more popular

slow marsh
#

Idk as much as I love sin and am bent on taking it to the moon 🚀 🌕 i'm not gonna get all hyped about sCaLiNg

limber lion
#

I didn't enjoy it in BFA whatsoever. I do like the current iteration of it. It's not assa, but it's pretty decent.

stoic needle
#

I have faith that the next BP system is going to be absolutely cracked out

limber lion
rigid wyvern
#

my 235 MA leggo is ready for this moment

limber lion
#

I wish I hadn't put Torghast aside. Just last week I got 235 Zoldy's. 190 MA in the bag and a Doomblade yet to craft. Oh boy.

balmy condor
rigid wyvern
#

Will do. Ya I got 235 Zold, 235 MA, 225 Doomblade

balmy condor
limber lion
#

I was baited into creating a 235 Finality and 190 Celerity. :''(

#

Wish I could sell my good-for-nothing-Finality and get a Doomblade instead. Oh well. I guess it's only 9 Torghast runs for a 235.

stoic needle
#

I'm glad that I've dragged myself through torghast every week

#

I just wish I didn't waste ash on celerity

faint harness
#

yall didnt waste anything

#

its a collection

stoic needle
#

Collection of trash angery

feral merlin
faint harness
#

you'd also be sad if you craft doomblade now and they dont fix the bug

pulsar sluice
#

Pull the ripcord

stoic needle
#

Too late kekw

limber lion
balmy condor
#

Just doomblade instead

stoic needle
#

I'm thinking duskwalkers after I max doomblade

faint harness
#

i got 5 different legendaries

#

but not all 235

balmy condor
#

If they don’t fix doomblade by 9.0.5

pulsar sluice
#

the only craft i regret is akaaris

balmy condor
#

I’m crafting dashing

#

And then crafting dusk

#

If they fix, I’m crafting doom, and then dusk

faint harness
#

we just had a 30 min random ptr testing with deathly and found 20 dps

#

so its possible theres more to get

balmy condor
#

Why u booing me

#

I’m right

rigid wyvern
#

whats the doom bug?

faint harness
#

the dot part is affected by armor

bleak sedge
#

I wish our best Legendary wouldn't be zoldyck :(

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

Why?

faint harness
#

confirm idk

#

but the dot can be parried

#

so i assume its some bug with it being physical

bleak sedge
#

Because zoldyck feels shit in fights like sludge. Even though it feels great on denathrius to be fair

balmy condor
#

All my knowledge on the subject is miki posting some number salad and koji responding with “that’s not how that works”

stoic needle
faint harness
#

!bugs

prisma monolithBOT
stoic needle
#

It did suck when zoldyck was nearly the same dps as the rest

faint harness
#

and then koji said

balmy condor
#

Aha

#

That would make sense

bleak sedge
#

Finality on assa would be cool i think

faint harness
#

why monkaS

bleak sedge
#

Buffed buffs go brrrr

#

Bleeds*

balmy condor
#

Isn’t that zoldyck though

#

And you realize that the rupture buff from finality works on sin?

bleak sedge
#

Yes but having it work across the whole fight instead of below 30% would be cooler imo

#

Yes but for rupture only that's not worth it no? We would need CT and Envenom aswell which wont happen because ct is a talent

faint harness
#

having a doom-gun legendary that oneshots any boss would also be cool

faint harness
#

keep your hands off sub legendaries, fucking fiends

#

already stolen deathly

#

thats enough

bleak sedge
#

I have akaaris lol

faint harness
#

i guess you want it to work on mutilate too huh

bleak sedge
#

Make it work on auto attacks Sinscheme

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

Finality would be cool as a neutral legendary

bleak sedge
#

Can't wait for not having to worry about snd anymore

stoic needle
#

Get that dumb tiny toxic blade shit outta here

faint harness
#

ttb is a sin legendary

#

lets not pretend otherwise

stoic needle
#

No it's a joke

bleak sedge
#

Wasn't there something in legion that made the second night blade deal mpre dmg on sub? I want that for ma bleeds

balmy condor
bleak sedge
#

Lmao

#

Blizzard naming 10/10

faint harness
#

its called finality: rupture now

balmy condor
#

Finality is a copy paste of the legion effect

bleak sedge
#

Well stick to stuff that was good i guess

faint harness
#

its painfully average rn

#

sub lack a good legendary

#

so idk if finality is sticking to whats good

bleak sedge
#

But its probably a pain to play if i think about it. Letting that shit run out and not refreshing in pandemic window every second use.

balmy condor
#

Some other legion effects as current legendaries:
Zoldyck - zoldyck
Dusk walker - duskwalker
Akaari - akaari
Blunderbuss, greenskin, master assassin

bleak sedge
#

I remember zoldyck aswell

balmy condor
#

Guile is from a passive of the same name from old combat before it was outlaw

faint harness
#

the rotten is the sub gloves

#

from legion

balmy condor
#

Bloodfang was a thing as well I think?

bleak sedge
#

If i remember correct i actually played zoldyck back then

balmy condor
#

I don’t remember all the trash ones

faint harness
#

look at how good it was

#

my god

#

this rotten abomination

balmy condor
bleak sedge
#

I forgot which sub legendary i used lol. I think i used the shoulders

faint harness
#

bloodfang is weird

#

never got it to deal dmg

balmy condor
#

It’s not supposed to

#

Weird healing nonsense imo

bleak sedge

I used mantle i think. Which is now in the game aswell. Jesus Blizzard

stoic needle

Why

Oh

faint harness

because dropping stacks is a yuge dps loss

balmy condor
#

Agonizing poison was quite possibly the worst addition they’ve ever made to sin

faint harness

and imagine swapping to a target without agonizing

balmy condor

Which is probably why it got replaced halfway through the expansion

ye just bad design

Guys, i want to reroll and be ready for 9.0.5 with stuff and skill gameplay wise. I'm torned between Rogue and War. Do you think rogue is a good bet for the rest of the expansion or if it's not up like crazy it will be meh.

balmy condor
#

War has a raid buff and a raid cd, rogue has neither

#

If you’re looking for m+, you’ll probably want to rogue over a warrior

#

But unless rogues are strong and warriors arent, you would play a warrior over a rogue

#

In raids

radiant fossil
#

Ho yeah i should have precised that im in a guild with mythic progression. But i do m+ too. Like 50/50 i'd say. I like rogue more than warrior but i dont want to be a problem for my guild if my class is "useless"

stoic needle
#

Rogues being good is reliant on us getting some boosts from borrowed power

balmy condor
#

I don’t think you’d be useless

stoic needle
#

Well not good, top tier

balmy condor
#

But warrior can just hit shout and cry and have impact

#

Our impact is big boy boss dam

stoic needle
#

We bring some useful niche stuff that makes us worth bringing, it's just a matter of convincing your raid team that you're actually useful which can be easy or hard depending on what they're like

#

Depends on how much they blindly look at tier lists or if they understand what's useful in practice

radiant fossil
#

They are kinda following the meta. Like a lot of unholy dk, hunts, warlocks. We have an outlaw rogue atm tho. So i guess they arent so picky after all. But we also have a war too. Maybe 2 rogues or 2 wars is kinda the same.

stoic needle
#

If they can be convinced by sims and will listen to logic you should be okay. But if they're like "WELL ASSASSINATION ROGUES ARE F TIER RIGHT NOW NO WAY" that'll be rough

rigid wyvern

When 9.0.5 gets closer to release, show them some of the sims of the specs compared. Assassination is simming higher than outlaw on single target, but is slightly worse in aoe. However you bring an execute which is really powerful for progression. In 9.0.5 assasination rogues will be the highest dps melee and among the highest dps in the game in the execute phase which is usually the most dangerous part of a boss fight which is really valuable for progress. Rogues may not have a ton of good utility, but they have good defensives and reduce the load on healers. Also assasination suffers less from downtime and is more forgiving than other specs, simming high usually means you will do a lot of damage compared to other specs. Overall assasination is a really flexible spec that's good for progression

#

If you explain that to them and show them the sims I'd be surprised if they say no

feral merlin
#

All it takes is one or two tier videos

radiant fossil
#

Assuming the changes for 9.0.5 stay the same for assa rogue. I'll bring what you wrote to me in case they ask me why i should play rogue instead of my hunter vociBrain

Oh MFD into ct with ns Hb?

balmy condor

Ct with Hb

#

Nightstalker hb with ma though, yes

drifting cosmos

Oh ok

Guess fok dmg not big enough?

balmy condor
#

Well the fok damage is kinda big enough, HB + katar is actually not far behind CT in dungeonslice, but nightstalker is just mega troll

It came up as a question about SLG that me and push were talking about

#

How would sin do burst aoe

And that’s the solution we came up with

drifting cosmos

I thought you'd want NS, and plus ma legendary but then it's prob better when you have higher base crit + first strike

M+ wise

balmy condor

Bout the same

#

Most of the changes are single target

split veldt
#

i switched it up a little and somehow i moved the red cp and cant figure out how to get it back and it's triggering me lmao

drifting cosmos
#

In the position numbers? Y axis should line up with others

split veldt

signal grove

That was giving me anxiety. Nothing worse than something out of line on my bars for me lol

split veldt
#

#

hmm one last thing, how do i get sepsis to glow or something when the free ambush is available

slow marsh
# balmy condor Sad

I mean we knew it was gonna be not good dps though. The real question is how good was it for the one pull they had full stack fans for

signal grove
torpid spoke
#

do we vanish on cooldown

#

and what do we do out of vanish

stoic needle
#

yes we do, and it depends on if you have subterfuge or MA

#

with subterfuge you garotte, multiple times if its aoe. with MA you try to vanish with 5 cp already so you can envenom > mut > envenom

primal zinc

uneven plume
#

I heard the necro lord bleed is gonna be included with exsanguinate

balmy condor
#

that's a bug

uneven plume
#

=[

sleek otter
#

would be hella insane if it was true

#

double dmg infinitie

balmy condor
#

it works right now on ptr

#

you just keep exsanging it over and over

#

but that's cause of unintended jank code

gray fjord
#

Yeah I was messing with that on the PTR, it gets pretty silly if you can re-exsan the same target like 10 times

#

But definitely unintended.

#

What has bugged me for forever is why SBS can't crit.

#

Makes literally 0 sense, and I've reported it numerous times since beta.

stoic needle
#

I'm pretty sure that's on purpose. that's the point of the conduit, to give it a 'crit' chance

gray fjord
#

I mean, I understand the reasoning behind it. But like

#

What abilities can't crit in the game other than SBS

#

XD

#

It's seems really redundant to need a conduit to have a chance to do something your abilities naturally can.

#

And it's not even proportionate to the amount of crit chance other abilities can get.

#

Like the only move I can think of that 'can't' critically hit is Chaos bolt- Because it always critically hits when you use it, and its damage is increased based on your crit chance. (Unless something has changed)

#

Idk, I guess a ramble but I feel that if SBS could crit Necrolord would've been way more viable/popular overall.

stoic needle
#

I fully agree with you that it's bad design. But what else is new with the rogue abilities? rolf

Disabilities you mean ?
