Nadija yes
everything else is complicated
BRO
be careful what you ask around here, others will call you entitled and flame you 
h0w do u fucken reach 30% haste on flag opener
Please read the pins
@steep hamlet any questions you have are easily answered by the pins on the upper right hand corner
It states all of this
you need lust
or just lust ig
ye tbh im just lazy
thistle tea 
Os flag conduit that oo?
@steep hamlet well dont be lazy.
i wanted to test that on the dummies actually
how bad do potions need to be for thistle tea to be good enough to use?

15 PIs 
doesnt even count the warrior banners yet either in the buffs list lol
15 pi's and only 200 ahead of 2nd
and he's gettin those with every vendetta
LOL
ikr
NF priest on a rogue is such a god damn waste too
only 8 pi
yes
true lol
What covenant for m+ in 9.0.5?
all are fine but check the pins
!guide
short answer : go w/e you want except kyrian
lol
it's true lol
do u guys hold flag until next vendetta or use it on cd
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
On cd
only hold it if you won't get another cast of it
hey, just checking, if you clear raid on mythic you wont drop more renown if you clear heroic right?
asking before I waste 2 hours 
you get renown from every difficulty
If the fight is less than 4.5 mins use it on CD, if it’s greater than 5 mins pair it with vendetta
hmmm nice
thx for the information, and I assume mythic +0 will drop 1 renown too?
every dungeon*
thx
Is the opener on IV for ST when using subt accurate? I haven't played sin since bfa, but I remember using garr twice to get the longer duration on the empowered garr. Is that not a thing anymore because of the loss of the azerite trait?
no idea, haven't done that
is this true even for longer fights (like 10 minute fights)?
you no longer garrote twice
@vagrant delta no. Seli hasnt updated the openers yet
will try later, dungeon is fast at least, easy to test
Not worth, it was only worth to do so because of the azerite trait
pretty sure he said a few days ago he did update the IV guides
thanks
TY
@hollow escarp he did not
how hard would I gimp myself by going Kyrian? Kinda like the Aesthetics lol
I was on his stream 
Er let me check
depends on what sort of content you do
Heroic raiding/M+ and some pvp
if you care so much about the aesthetics it's completely fine
like it's not giga trash, just a bit behind the rest
sweet, thanks for the answer mate
you'll get benched on lfr sludge tho
if you're fine not min/maxing then go w/e you want
top 10 all stars mythic has 2 kyrians afaik
my guild is not that hardcore so I guess I'll be fine
2 nf
guys what's fastest way to increase renoun ?
play the game
lfr. no joke.
@hollow escarp apologies he did update it
Does anyone know how to sim higher level legrndaries in gear compare on raid bots?
I dont think he optimized it for each cov which I mentioned to him. Apparently it's a PITA to get the apls right.
I believe you play the opener SLIGHTLY different as venthyr vs fae
wdym
nvm misread
shame delete 
xD
If i go to venari and my only conduit under 200 is flagellation one, will it increase it to 200 if i buy the item ?
hey it wasn't what he asked for
@weary marten correct
i misread so why leave it
because it's funny
it's too late now smh
oh but i have the 145 since i just switched
then dont buy it
@weary marten you have a high chance to get it from callings
venari increases a random conduit by 1 'rank'
so if it's 184, next rank is 200
then 213 then 226
I got my 200 one from wb 
pug normal sire
I did my first three callings and got it from all 3, not sure if it is 100 percent, but it's damn high if not
Doomblade or Zoldyk for Sludgefist?
zoldyck is good for prog
doomblade they said
DB good
i have no legendary yet for sin, raid once a week hc and rest m+ on sin, which legendary to craft first?
aren't people going MA for Sludge?
what is the best slot for doomblade?
is there a better lego than ma for pvp only ?
i thought so yeah, but i might have misunderstood it for the talent?
probably the talent
y’all can rip my zoydlock legs from my cold dead M+ centric hands.
sephuz is good too
how do i sim oil vs stones?
which in ST you'll always run i think
Right now it seems like my melee is doing just a little bit more damage than my envenom, am i wasting globals or not envenoming enough?
!wa
Assassination WA's:
https://wago.io/E1EB91OtM (Lokkek's Group)
https://wago.io/SyLUNGD4X (Sovv's Group)
https://wago.io/SJLQKGjMM (Afenar's Group)
https://wago.io/ByzCxPq-m (Devlin's Group)
yeah that's why i thought people meant the legendary
because the talent is default for ST
high vers will get your melees do most dmg
what is sephuz ? ._.
@wide ridge Ahhh okay, right now im 25% crit, 19.5% haste, 18% mastery & 15% Versa
@quiet juniper
ohhh ok
Maybe I'm a scrub but I don't see that being better than ma or doomblade for sin
I prefer ma too
It looks to me like people are using DB on Sludgefist
i mean sephuz is never bad for pvp
4cp on mut 
but surely also never better than MA
MA offers burst damage, doomblade more pressure, sephuz doesn't bring much except every time you kidney
You can do some disgusting burst as sin with ma right now
Read the pins please
Especially with new flag good lord
how do you open with flag and MA leggo
do you flag before mfd kidney?
sounds..risky?
Yeah ma is nice for PvP but it’s gimped af compared to doom blade in raid
!stats
**Shadowlands: ** Haste > Versatility => Critical Strike => Mastery
With rupture and garotte up, mut to 5cp, kidney vend flag shiv vanish envenom mfd envenom
Ambush after envenom IMO
you 1cp envenom?
or you go the oshosi build
You could ambush envenom ambush envenom mfd envenom with Subterfuge
Yeah that's true I guess ambush would be better there
Referring to the pinned leggo sims on 3/5, it looks like doomblade is best overall, with it being barely behind zold on dungeon slice, but quite a bit ahead on ST. Does this mean it could be seen as best overall?
for now, yes
No, you misunderstand dungeon Slice sims
Dungeon Slice sims are 50% st which makes doomblade look really good on them
doom is best overall for ST
mmm? please elaborate
In reality doomblade is bad for aoe
but zoldyck beats it in m+
aaaaah
You wouldn't use doomblade in any dungeon unless it has small pulls
in dungeons would you run MA or zoldyck ?
They're both fine I prefer zoldyck though
since our 3 first GCD are forced to be garrote MA is strong if you vanish
Im just getting back into Assa this patch, used to love it. Just trying to figure out where i can sink my ash
Zoldyck boosts the initial damage of ct
ty for the info
this 8 Pi chinaman is annyoing
I have a 210 zoldyck and rather than upgrading it I’m saving for a doomblade
You could use doomblade on theater of pain or plaguefall but that's about it
yeah do both 210 zoldyck and doomblade
So if I'm purely choosing to learn Sin for ST Raid bosses and playing Outlaw otherwise, it sounds to me like DB is the move.
in ST 235 zoldyck was behind 210 doomblade for me
Doomblade also looks fun AF
Yeah it's crazy that 210 doomblade outsims 235 zold for me too lol
doing nothing different looks fun?
i get to test doomblade now
zold on legs i assume?
Big envenoms are always fun
As someone jumping off the sub train I am not a huge fan of outlaw, how much of a difference is there between outlaw and sin in keys?
It's pretty noticeably worse
Damn...
Mut is just a boring spam btn, giving it an ignite should be baseline it’s such a good idea
if you played sub in keys, i dont think you really care about performance
oof
That’s why I’m trying to get away from it 😂
Sin doesn't have the cc for locking mobs down in high keys, and is more effort to still do slightly less damage than outlaw
That being said I got Ksm with sin
does numbing poison work on bosses?
So it's fine for up to like 18s and 19s
Yes
I hate outlaw gameplay... dang it
Who cares anyway keys are lame
Tfw your ma is vers/mastery
so best to use Deadly / Numbing poison and not Crippling?
Keys are amazing get out of here
1550 io haven’t pushed keys in a couple weeks since I got the 226 phial
Crippling is good for keys when tanks kite
Sin with a healer in 2s is literally god tier enjoyment
If you haven’t tried it try it
How is getting dicked down by warriors and paladins more fun than running keys
You crazy man lmao
Bruh
I play sin in keys 15-18 atm and it does equal dmg to my outlaw but cc lockdown is harder for sure. Wouldn't play it if I was pushing hard
The extra range + gouge + more cp to spend on stuns in general is too good
imagine playing pvp 
gouge is just too strong in m+
Make gouge baseline 
Fighting players will be Moreno treating them fighting predictable AI
I enjoy pvp but the current meta is not what I would describe as compelling
Running the same dungeons over and over and over and over and over is compelling
You have a mental condition?
READ THE PINS
The affixes changing every week makes it interesting
RUSS READ THE PINS DAMNIT
PINS @limpid blaze
Also running with different group comps makes it interesting
what's the reason to open mutilate over ambush?
I was thinking for the 50 energy, ambush hits harder than mutilate per cast.
since we are using a slice&dice immediately after, is it even worth the potential 4 cp over 3cp, since that SnD will be extended by cut to the chase anyway?
or is there another benefit to use mutilate over the potential extra combo point generation?
no just combo points if ur running d00mer then yeah that too
ohhh doomblade proc i guess?
Ambush doesn’t hit harder than mutilate - also
!mut
Ambush is currently only used from blindside/sepsis proc, not from stealth.
The reasoning is a little complicated, but the most important of them is the difference in combo points on crit (up to 4 vs 3).
Some other factors to consider are increased poison applications, blindside, and doomblade. This is true for all talent combinations and legendaries.
Doom blade
cuz ambush = max 3 CP, doesn't apply doomblade ...
But it does
does it?
that's a longer SnD window before your first envenom though
when you have vendtta up you want your bleeds to last as long as possible
🥴
surely you're never going to lose SnD before your first envenom either way? but yeah doomblade proc is big i suppose
More poison proc chance
No
yeah blindside is a great argument
why use 50energy on ambush if you can get one for free

and using mutilate with the 50% crit MA talent = 2 attacks that can crit + 1 deadly poison application + 1 instant poison that can also crit
i mean you have two weapons and you want to hit them with one?? why??
sims still press it when sepsis procs
Or it could do extra damage to a bleeding target or something
what about teleport us behind target when used from stealth like Shadowstrike huh ?
Ambush has a 20% chance of resetting the cd of shiv 
that would be insane
Could you imagine
The fact you open mut from stealth makes subterfuge kinda garbage right? Aside from garrote dmg
How about remove ambush from sin and replace it with a real execute
MA talent I guess is a lot better
bring back dispatch for sin
Multi target is good for garrotes but ma for single target godlike
Give sin condemn 
Ah right multi garrote
Well dont call it dispatch butbyes
But ST the MA talent is best?
Blindside is essentially the same passive proc sin had forever
Right
With subterfuge you open with garottes
Back when dispatch was a sin a ability
Though i don't like shiv becoming our old toxic blade, can't disenrage mobs when needed ...
I'm so fucking tilted
whats the rotation for the necrolord ability?
@weary marten yes well we all hate that
I hate playing with blindside tbh
I had a rank 1 pull OVERALL in HC HD and I died to a beam that someone didn't take out of the group
I'm tilted
Just make blindside baseline and give us more fun 1 talent IMO
i hate sub more than i hate blindside 😄
Blindside is annoying
It used to be at sub 30%, sin just use dispatch instead of mut, and it was more damage/energy efficient
Blindside is actually ultra pog for deeper strat sin
Costs no energy and gets you to 6cp easier
deeper strat ? that's a thing in sin ?
Why is blindside annoying it’s almost free damage
I was at 8k dps when the boss was at 25% and I still had Flag/Vend coming up. BEst parse on the boss is 7.8k dpos
kill me
It gets better the more crit you have and haste
only in ST ? not DS ?
eh, 4.3k dps before 2nd intermission on shriekwing. i take that
Yeah vigor or MfD for dungeons
ty for answers, got my head around it now
Blindside and ct really need to be baseline
I think If u sim it’s only a .8% difference between DS and vigor
That's a lot
ct at the very least
then just rework the last talent row
Blindside was baseline at one point, and it was glorious
Also what keybinds are you guys using, mine look like this: 1: garrote, 2: mut, 3: SnD, 4: Rupture, 5: covenant ability, Shift1: ambush, shift2: shadowstep, shift3: fan of knives, shift4: shiv
Maybe I hate blindside because of my binds
Execute class 
@weary marten yes DS is a thing for sin but sim first.
You should put ambush on shift+2
Whatever makes your hands not hurt
@knotty sparrow dude we cant answer that it's what you're comfortable with
Keybinds are strictly preference
Fair enough
- mutilate 2. Garrote 3. Rupture 4. Poisoned knife 5. Feint 6. Fok T shiv, R ambush, shift + 4 snd, mouse 3 envenom

With outlaw I bind ambush and sinister strike to the same key
Oh I’m gonna get flamed for this.
1 Mut - 2 Envenom - 3 SnD - 4 Rupture - 5 Envenom - 6 Flag - 7 Shiv - E Garrote - R ambush,
Seli has the most scuffed keybinds I've ever seen
Utility it gets weird
But its comfortable for him
R Ambush twins 
Okay I simmed it again, vigor vs ds is only .3% difference not .8
Envenom/dispatch/evis are all bound to F for me
actually same 1, 2, 4 and 6 than you 😄
卄乇ㄥㄥ ㄚ乇卂卄 乃尺ㄖㄒ卄乇尺
F is my big finisher
I don't even tell people about my keybinds because they don't make sense to you keyboard plebeians
whats the necrolord rotation
Imagine not using a keypad
I learned keybinds from swifty back in wrath.
So I use q e f 1 2 3 4 for rotational stuff
Smdh
Now I feel less weird
DDR pad + Xbox controller master race????
I need Q and R for strafe
@knotty sparrow ????????
Imagine not using a flight stick smh
Razer tartarus master race
No hold right click to move?!
You can right click and A and D to strafe silly
Rebind strafe to a d
KEYBOARD TURNER
Yes.
GET HIM
Sorry q and E lol
Please tell me F1 is a button on your mouse lol
E is kidney Q is blind
@knotty sparrow please tell me you use your mouse to turn
no it isn't
Yes...
why would it be
Strafe on A and D or you're inting
i don't use throw knife anways lol
Some body once told me
You guys don’t strafe run at all?
always though that i should get one
I used a nostromo for years until the keys finally gave out on it.
Q kick - V vanish - P is Shadowstep
Yall
@knotty sparrow yea but most people rebind to a d for strafe
I strafe and turn with my mouse all the time
Thumb movement best movement.
The razer tartarus is so fucking good
I always put my kicks on “r” for some reason.
Reminding a and d I’ll try that
but the blind next to it is bound to an extra mousebutton @worn path
I’m a boomer, osh. I need a keyboard and mouse
My kicks are always ‘
I needed A and D to spin a million miles an hour on my AH mount before it got nerfed
It is for my immersion
~ kicks
I use EDSF to move. Qazwxrctghv for spells 1 2 3 for cds.
can someone please help me with the necrolord rotation?
my kick is always on f. Fast muscle memory because of league lmao
Literally I unbind keyboard turning and s and use the arrow key if you for some reason need it to do weird shit. Bind strafe to a and d and slice and dice to s for the feels
If anything run the command that increases keyboard turn speed lol
Flash right?
ignite
Delete this rn
no.
Lol
does vendeta works with usuable trinket ?

D flash players 
It’s d to dance and f to ignite cmon
D flash is master race
im swapping to necro tomorrow. So excited :3
D for flash lol why
D flash is the only true way
cuz its faster to reach
F for flash you guys are heathens
Good luck! d flash players
👉 🚪
Then when you say “press d to dance” and people press it it’s hilarious. Im a boomer
D for Dignite
Good luck on the Necro, those were two separate thoughts 
F to pay respects as the ignite tick drops them to the floor
If I were to put it in keyboard terms, my mut is E, envenom on R, rupture on V, CT on shift+v, FOK on C, garotte on Q, SND on 1, ambush on 2, flag on 3, sprint on 4
anyone run advanced sims here?
SnD on one 
E and R for rotating camera gang
I've got feint, evasion, cloak and stealth on my d-pad
And cds and trinkets, kick and MfD on my mouse
And shadowstep
what the fuck
Spot the heretic
How can you not play shadowstep on mouse lol
I use it on P 
No I mean like I agree with you and how can you not do this
If you don’t play with a Bop-it, 2 guitar hero controllers, a foot pedal and a gear shifter for Vendetta you’re trolling
I put rupture on square, envenom on triangle
True!
Honestly I have no clue man
Sleeping on the DK Bongos smdh
Can’t, too many straps around my neck
I need to get the 4 button foot pedal so I can move more CDs to there
I have to alt+F4 for mut
Filthy casual
I'm imagining the discord boop with my RLS
My vanish is Shift G
??
[V]anish is on SHIFT V
Wow, mine seem to be qlot diff than most .Got all rotation abilities on mouse scroll, up/down with ctrl/alt/shift/shft+alt modifiers.. :pepeclown-1:
rest are CDs using buttons around movment keys
Shift space man
Shift DN is a good one too @stoic needle
oshosi stop speaking right now
It's lit
Imagine having more than 2 mouse buttons 
Sprint is shift V
Shift C for sprint for me
Listen I'm gonna give y'all some knowledge
Throw your razer naga in the fucking trash where it belongs
And get a steelseries rival 500
I got vanish/cloak/heal on mouse wheel alt for defensive cooldowns shift for offensive and 1-6 for attack spells
Stealth on S and vanish on shift+S. I haven't backpedaled in years.
Mouse wheel anyone?
I tried getting a rival i could only overpay. Got a Logitech on sale

The one with 12 buttons
I only use mouse wheel for my pally
My fok is mwheel down
@plush oasis eh backpedaling has its uses
Reading this has tilted me harder than patch day for whispyr. Holy moly
You'll never mispress a button again
And you can't tank without it
I feel so much better about my key binds, you animals 
Well my tank doesn't stealth either lol
Oh mine are shit
Strafe backwards on a dps. You'll never go back.
But cant get rid of fycking musscle memory
C is sprint
anyone else stuck on 27 renown? i've done 7 raid bosses, 7+ heroic dungeons and at least 4 mythic dungeons since i hit 27 and the whole campaign is done
Alt shift F9 is vanish
Strafing backwards is strictly inferior to backpedaling when you need to dodge mechanics
I was stuck on renown 28 last reset, wouldn't upgrade it for satan's unholy might.
You know what ?
SnD alt f4
Try pvp
You don't wanna be tilted by keybinds ?
making me feel like there's a hidden weekly cap
Dei the clicker 
I have most of my shit on keybinds
but I mouseclick def cds
Top sin rogue in m+ though
!guide
How many sin rogues in m+?
I click my healing potions and healthstones ngl
Yes
A few thousand
I click shroud
I think shroud is the only thing I click...
Shroud on shift v
I click a few things actually. Probably the most egregious is FoK 
Clickers among us
Distract click
They're everywhere
I just can't stand the alt-sth or shift-sth binds, and I ain't comfortable with bigger mouses
They're even me!
hands 2 smol
I do click buff potions though. Think that's the only thing.
But CT is bound?
try this if you don't like alt / shift clicking.. put alt and shift on the thumb buttons of your mouse.
My keybinds are a little weird
Everything is on 1-= and Ctrl+1-=
Get some foot pedals
XD
CT is bound to shift-middle mouse even though I haven't used in since BFA lol
I use ctrl for long cool downs cause it’s not comfy to press. Alt is better for me because my left thumb rests naturally on alt
CT is my 8
Alt1-4 so ez
thanks for the tip about deeper strat, i win 0.8% dps if i switch 
what's the sim setting to have like patchwork+ adds spawning periodically?
See that’s not super bad
mouse wheel press is my FoK
But mouse 3 is push to talk :/
Mouse Wheel Press is just for shit you spam
whats the opening sequence ?
I have everything bound, even poisons
Dungeon slice @solid mica ??
also short note, doomblade is bonkers wtf
Try swich that for mwup or down
I was thinking something similar to innerva
Was doing it like u till i made that change
na man mousewheel is my zoom
i aint changing that
FoK/BF/SS are on shift+w for me. I know that one's a lil weird but it works.
Shift+mousewheel to zoom 5head
But what if I need to zoom real fast?
Shift mouswheel is evasion xD
If you can't shift mouse wheel quickly then you have other problems to solve
Yeah I have mouse wheel bound with shift alt
@celest rover haha
But real talk I use shift a lot. It would fuck with my other abilities if I changed the camera mid fight.
I can't find the opening sequence anywhere :S anyone can help 😄
Damn, didnt even realize how huge these Assassination sims are
https://www.raidbots.com/simbot/report/hxShm6isWr1HZZx1WWSZy2
like hot damn
oh damn nice !
lmao heirmir sims 100 dps below nija+scars for me
which is like 1,4%
i thought the difference is way bigger
Seems like vent is the way to go we got a necro one?
Oh. That'll do
Haha nice
1.4% is pretty big
You're about to go fast
Does MA (TALENT, not legendary) affect trinkets?
That would be too much fun
I don't believe so
And we all know blizzard has outlawed fun
I think mine are pretty normal..
shift mousewheel is stealth
Mut, garrotte, rupture, fok, envenom 1-5
Ambush, shiv, knife, CT, mfd shift 1-5
Kick R
Vendetta F on use trinket shift F
Evasion Q cloak E
SnD S
Then on mouse I have blind, step, sprint, cov abilities, smoke bomb, shroud, sap, gouge place holder and then shift/control modifiers for focus/arena targets for blind sap and step kick. 🤷🏼♂️
Rip
Honestly the MoTMA nerf really hurts for torghast speed runs
Not as of 9.0.5
As outlaw I don't really feel it. But as sub / sin its bad
Just the damage procs that get huge by the end
You want to hear some real bullshti?
MA no longer affects distracting charges
Found that out today
no more 50k distract bombs
Wtf
Even though its an ability I guess the explosion part isnt counted
this is a bug
They changed MA to be a whitelist instead of just blanket crit for your character. If it’s not a rogue ability it’s not critting
Distracting charge isn’t a rogue ability
Even less reason to take it then
Is there a way to sim one covenant against another?
Top gear
Click unlock soulbinds and sim another soulbind
Distract is a rogue ability. With that logic you could argue nothing in torghast is aninsert class ability but crit affects them.
Oh, I thought that was just for the one covenant. Thanks!
wow i just tried to play deeper strat it feels so sloooow
Nothing in torghast that isn’t a rogue ability crits from MA. Most of our torghast powers buff our abilities so they crit. Distract is yes, but it doesn’t do damage and definitely doesn’t explode lol
Yeah and to me buffing distract to do an additional 20k damage is buffing the ability we have, not adding another.
!opener
anyone know the rotation for the necrolord covenant
when does flag come in play with opener
It's not like you need to have distracting charge on your keybinds. Normal distract works for it.
Distract does no damage? The damage comes from distracting charge not distract my dude
I understand but the charge comes from altering a normal rogue ability.
You must not understand what a white list is then. Hold on
@stoic needle why do people like IQD
Lmao
Half the time it doesnt even do what you want.
Because it gives the most haste of any trinket

I mean if you have half a brain and pay attention to the conditions before you pop it...
In bloodlust it's guaranteed to give a stat buff I believe
And theres a weakaura for it
That reminds me I need to make a WA for skulkers
To tell you to unequip it? 
Yea itis but there is so many condition that i rarely give stat in fight except on pull
@stoic needle and equip what lmao
Bro if I get a dreadfire tonight believe me it's gone but I dont get trinkets this expansion
I only just got a 213 chain like w weeks ago
Just run plaguefall
@exotic pulsar MA only effects these abilities. Nothing else. No modifiers, powers, trinkets, nothing. Only what’s found in this list
I hear you but trinkets are farmable now
Yes. I'll run plague fall. But who knows, could be 50 runs before I get phial
Lemme get Phial with this IQD, that'd be fat
Yes and they forgot to put distracting charge on it.
Not sure how you don't understand that.
I saw 2 phials in 8 pf
There are no anima powers on the list
Then I got to go get KSM which I I'm not wasting my time with for the next 2 weeks
KSM takes 1 day tho
I have 900 IO lmao
I pugged it in a day...
You really dont grasp just how much I hate doing mythic +
You're extremely lucky
It took me weeks to build up the io and find a group to do 15s even
well u will get the valor rdy by getting ksm at least
They didn’t forget anything?? Distract doesn’t have a damage value so it couldn’t crit?? The same reason sap, blind, grappling hook and shadow step aren’t on it.
The longer you wait the harder it will be to get into 15s as you fall farther and farther behind the curve
Just saying
Well if I didnt have cunt guildees
Hmm. Venthyr is only simming +37 dps for me from night fae.
but not doing at least one +14 every week is just inting urself 
It wouldnt be that much of a problem
Anybody here have experience with flag and outlaw in m+? Maybe the wrong place to ask but I know a lot of you probably swap to outlaw for m+.
I just pushed my own key and didn't invite shitters ain't that hard
Yeah I didn't find a group until I pushed my own key
And tbh I got lucky when a dps+tank+healer queued into my key
Well funny enough my first key tonight is 12 PF so
Post the key, wait 5 minutes, and you'll have 75 people to pick from
Use it on CD on a high health target that’s going to live for 12 seconds at least
Time to fail a key and want to die
And I was just like "TAKE ME WITH YOUUUUU"
@worn path does it seem to do well? Just worried a bit about making myself bad in m+ on accident.
But I do like the aoe disorient I can get.
It’s more bursty. If it’s used right it does well
It just changes your damage profile
Venthyr gives outlaw more st, to shore up it's weaknesses, while necro accentuates it's strengths
It's literally just personal preference
The haste from flag gives you more AAs to blade flurry so it's not like it does nothing in aoe
That sounds fine to me. Appreciate the feedback.
And you don’t need to have a hand growing out of your shoulder
@stoic needle how long into this key tonight do you think I tilt off the earth
5 seconds max
I give you until globgrog
Plaguefall is my most hated dungeon too.
I'd offer to do it with you but my internet is down rn 
Depends on the dungeon and how much of a fan you are of tornados
Oh dude I just eat the tornados that's my healers problem
I cannot wait to get my pox and ring and get the hell out
You're a monster
Pox?
You gotta accept storming os just a terrible mechanic and shouldn't be in the game
WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH OSH
are u an sd lover or
PF is fun until the third boss tbh
I need to offspec to be a good mythic raider 
No one but boomkins love SD
sd worst by far I think
This man in a guild application out that he was outlaw offspec LMAO
I'm a spires kinda guy except the last boss
spires is good
SHHHH
just borrow my rogue if you need to go outlaw for a fight 4head. I have a 226 Pox :3
People don't know that sin pumps yet
nw is ehhhh
Any promising hits yet, by the way?
I like Spires a lot, but I also hate myself so there may be a correlation there

Nice!
Yeah kind of? I think my standards are too high
now I hope I get the ring in the vault
I'm so proud of you 
Look for a lower mythic guild and unfortunately, just climb up the ladder my dude
I don't like using guilds as ladders to better guilds, makes me feel bad
But yet when you have the damage transfer ability in torghast with blind / sap MA forces crit on them. Hmmm.
Some mid tier guilds understand that completely though
I would but why do you wanna quit 
And are happy to see their people push through. One of the recruiters is a GM for her guild on illidan and was like, we lost our DK during prog but he went to Lazarus so that’s fucking sick
I essentially raid log now, I'm kind of burned out
If I had good logs and SD down I'd prob quit
doing 10-15 keys a week + 2 raid nights + feeling obligated to do rated pvp makes me not want to log in. Then add torAss on top of that and oh boy
but im trash so, I'm trying to improve
wew
It’s not sap that’s doing the damage, it’s your abilities... on another target..
Yeah I totally get that
I haven't done a key this week 
I mean if you're looking for someone to take your spot hmu 
I get it when you feel like you can't quit
Oh tomorrow I’m doing an all melee mists 16, this will be perfect and nothing will go wrong
That's me and my classic guild right now
During storming 
@stoic needle I made an arithmetic error in the 2nd sim, it was 200 stat short by accident. So the haste/crit was +221 dps ahead.
Also if I swap venth and get 2100 this week and 226 weps its like 6.5% increase ~400 dps 
bonus points if 2 of them are outlaw rogues playing killing spree
If you are playing assa st and outlaw aoe, what covenant is overall recommended?
Sucks to be slow idiots 
Good lord man
dudes, anyone tried out both necro and venthyr on assa and is able to tell how much worse assa feels like to play with necro? I wanna double spec, mainly outlaw with occasional assa for fun & some mythic progression - nothing too serious. But I'm mainly worried that assassination will feel extremely clunky and bad to play as necro compared to venthyr
6.5% is including the stat redistribution sorry
But still that's a lot of dps
It doesn’t feel clunky at all.
Maybe slightly? But it’s not a big difference
I don't think it will be clunky, in most situations sbs is just as good of a builder if not better than mutilate
You get lots of cheap cp
doesn't it cost energy?
SBS has always felt clunky to me, which is why I went venthyr over necro when I hit 60 originally (they were my 2 choices, meta be damned). I toyed around with it on PTR and didn't like it so I went back home to sinfall. Either choice will be solid regardless, venthyr might not be AS good as necro for outlaw but its still pretty damn good
it's like 15 energy I believe
Not compared to mut
15 energy for minimum 2cp vs 50 for mutilate
So if you've got a few stacks it's just better than mut
Even at 15 for 1, that’s still a bargain
but mut gives you doomblade bleeds
And sbs gives you an extra bleed for envenom damage 
what?
The lower damage from the bleed is compensated by the bigger envenoms dmg bonus
doesn't envenom account only for nature damage?
Sbs adds 5% to envenom dmg with doomblade
Doomblade is 5% extra dmg per bleed on the target
Garrotte, rupture, sbs, doomblade dot is 20%
thats kinda pog ngl
It is quite, as the kids say, poggers
I hate this place
works with zold?
After the leggo whitelist can NW weapons still crit? And if so are they impacted by the MA talent? 🤔
sim says i should make doomblade with crit haste, is this correct?
dont watch ilvl parse
Sbs does yeah
nobody is that poorly geared after 3 months 
tell blizzard to give me weapons
!wa
Assassination WA's:

iirc no to both. I haven’t attempted NW since the white list. The general consensus on PTR was the NW MA dream was dead though.
so i can replace my 197 pvp dagger
Mood. 213 and 210 gang 
buy a 200 one and u got an upg
i spam mists and have yet to see a dagger drop
oh no ilvl parses again
it was about the #
so how long until sin gets nerfed because it does giga boss damage, and only aff lock and shadow priest are allowed to do that
it's meaningless
😱
you stop rn
@gloomy fern https://i.imgur.com/pegliXm.png
Sorry that was tos, sc*ling. I’ll correct it
i haven't even seen the dagger yet
Imagine not getting weapons in vault 3 weeks in a row 
Fuck you.
try me. I haven't seen a weapon in the vault, ever
well its good, means u can insta upgrade with valor when u get it
and I max it out every week

i got one in week 1 on my priest
I’m still using it on my OH 
I'm gonna be such a pepega with 220 pox and 226 dagger offhand
but then again, i have like 10 HD kills + a bunch of mythic vaults, have yet to see the weapomn

plz let me buy weapons for VP, same as PvP players can buy shit for conquest
ty
I have KSM
Get a hot 187 dagger from a. 2
Upgrade it to 220
Ez
That’s only what? 10k valor?
Tbh I like valor
I like valor too
It gives you a reason to run low keys with your friends and guildies
say what again?
I think it’s a nice system
10k. Just 100 dungeons?
I had a pug tank change their loot spec to ret and then traded me the Phial they got 
I told them I'd dps any key they wanted forever
Absolute king
i too am something of a mistrunner myself
👑
Holy fuck
also by probability if you are targeting 1 specific item from mists, you will need to run it approximately 22 times
Unless you're unlucky.
ya boi wanna die becuase all i want is that damn chestpiece
I just wish that the bis ring gloves trinket and outlaw weapon didn't come from the same dungeon
I'm going to be running pf forever
3 rogue dps in my mists key 
im just happy my biggest upgrades come from the 'easiest' dungeon. and people actually like taking rogues to mists
my best is top
Arachnid cipher ring? already got mine king 
And that’s why I’m fucking doomed on a weapon and phial 
Holy fucking shit
LMAO
Hm, I need to steal that from him on my DH
lmao
shits so annoying
that guy has serious ptsd from mages
Don't we all
Hey. quick question. whats a good starting point for Haste?
what does that mean
Like should you have a certain haste % before swapping to assassin?
the answer is no
come on I was guiding him towards it
wait haste is bad?
if you're talking about swapping from sub to sin, I made the swap at 20% haste
Thank you!
im stuck with 10% 😦
10 is fine
sorry to be a spoilsport

i know
Bunch of comedians around.
That’s all this place is
if the question is when do I do more dps than my current spec?
go to raid bots
and press sim
I mean we were all telling jokes when shadowlands dropped because this spec was one 
when whispyr's away all we do meme and booli 
Just 1 garotte on the closest one
Only took 18% buff and buff to regen and legendaries for us to be here
This is true
is there a macro or something with blindside? or do i have to bind ambush on bars when im not stealthed?
Let me clarify. yes i know how to use raidbots been doing forever. right now im in the process of swapping equipment (getting haste equipment from PvP) to compensate a bit. just wanted a heads up of where you guys have haste at to stop simming like a mad man. thats all.
I hear if you say scaling in a mirror 3 times and flip the lights on and off 34 times whispyr appears behind you and bonks you
@eternal geode Just put ambush on a non-stealth bar. You aren't using ambush in stealth anyway
Sim after every gear piece change
ok thx
remember back in legion when haste didn't affect our DoTs and mastery was our best stat and we took master poisoner and we pooled for 3 globals before pressing envenom?
There really isn’t one. There’s no haste breakpoint that makes it magically bis. All stats are important and agility is king is the general consensus. It’s definitely tedious and sucks but yeah it’s just going to be a never ending sim until you’re comfy
my 20% haste was just when sin started feeling "good" like I wasn't pooling for too long and it felt smooth.
That's really just feelcraft though
Yeah
yeah and I'm all about feelcraft
The spec functions fine regardless of haste level. Even if you are doing less APM your actions hit harder
I’ve waivered from 15-23% haste, currently at 17. What matters really is just..
Agility lol
On a very very macro level. Of course secondary matters but WAAAAAY less than people think

I dropped 700 vers on a sim and put half into haste and half into crit and it was 3.5% dps do with that what you will
uhh hi Whispyr, how was class?
(quick everyone run)
It was fine, augmented 6th chords are no fun imo
Where do I get these frogs 
Interdasting 
Oh “idiot” is typing
My 145 Lashing Scars sims +50 dps over 200 Well Placed Steel 
That’s a name
Heard from someone that it doesn't do all the extra lashes. Any truth to that?
that's actually less than I expected
Is this with or without wind fury
with
I always uncheck wind fury because imagine bringing an enhance shaman and a rogue. There can only be enough room for 1 kekw
worth holding vendetta for BL on xymox? 3m mark
I haven’t seen it
I usually hold 2nd* vendetta for hero, damage to that boss above 60% doesn't really matter.
@torpid spoke World boss hasn't showed up for me this week. Who is it?
Night Fae one.
Omg my dungeon daily overlapped with the world boss quest LOL
I just thought there wasn't one this week
def not unless ur kill timer is over 5.30
you will miss a cast
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
Thanks mr!
@balmy condor requesting new infexious assa youtube guide to be pinned



34% crit tho?
