I'm using Nameplate SCT

strange python
#

whats sbs again?

hollow escarp
#

and it's funny to see poisons getting parried PEPW

strange python
#

bonespike

#

necrolord

stoic needle
#

Silly bone spike

stoic needle
drowsy parcel
#

its wonky but fun

hollow escarp
#

gonna try to reproduce it now

drowsy parcel
#

thats my verdict on being necrolord since wednesday

stoic needle
#

Hit the raider target dummy

strange python
#

they made flag not clunky anymore and then made sbs clunky in its place

ruby birch
#

idk if anyone else faces this but inerva is a god at parrying

strange python
#

very nice of them

ruby birch
#

ive had pulls on her where she will parry envenom (evis before i started raiding as assa) like 2/5 times

#

literally popped vendetta > shiv > envenom, parried, envenom, parried

#

would rather get deflected at this rate

hollow escarp
strange python
#

Isn't it just 15% base

hollow escarp
#

but you can see there

strange python
#

for parry chance when facing boss

stoic needle
#

Show combat log

hollow escarp
#

can't find parries

stoic needle
#

Thats weird as shit man

#

I'll test it too

hollow escarp
#

I've noticed that on denathrius a few times

#

because the pulls are so weird

celest ruin
#

does demon hunter debuff increase our poison damage?

strange python
#

I've had denathrius parry ghostly strike 2 times in a row on multiple occasions and its just the most shitty feeling ever

ruby birch
#

can garrote get parried

hollow escarp
#

envenom parries are also triggering

balmy condor
ruby birch
#

i hope i never find out

hollow escarp
#

I never experienced bleed applications getting parried so far

balmy condor
#

garrote doesn't actually have a hit attached to it

#

and neither does rupture

drowsy parcel
#

shiv can get parried

#

and it doesnt get applied

balmy condor
#

so I don't think they're actually capable of getting parried

celest ruin
#

stealth abilities cant be parried iirc

hollow escarp
#

Crimson Tempest has, so that might get parried

balmy condor
#

yeah shiv can get parried

#

I'm not sure about crimson tempest

ruby birch
#

i see makes sense honestly

balmy condor
#

but I think it can

#

well

#

actually

#

depends if it's 1 part or 2

drowsy parcel
#

back in the day when envenom got parried you would still get envenom buff

balmy condor
#

if it's 2 parts, then the instant could get parried, and the dot would go through

#

but I'm honestly not sure about the intricate details of parry logic

fallen current
#

After a week of necro, itโ€™s awkward even on outlaw.

balmy condor
#

since it's all fucking spaghetti

fallen current
#

I think Iโ€™ll have to swap off it

hollow escarp
#

I haven't tried any key with venthyr outlaw yet

stoic needle
#

Delete parry

hollow escarp
#

it's an RPG

#

I don't mind it

#

but it is annoying

dawn ivy
#

make it for autos who cares about autos

#

but envenom not hitting is tragic

hollow escarp
#

in MA window

dawn ivy
#

can spells still get resisted?

hollow escarp
stoic needle
#

They should be able to

hollow escarp
#

they can get

stoic needle
#

If parry is a thing, bring back elemental resistances

dawn ivy
#

if my envenom can be parried i want to see a glacial spike get resisted

fallen current
#

Oh no

agile geode
#

is dauntless duelist worth to use in council?

hollow escarp
hollow escarp
#

the debuff moves to a new target

agile geode
#

oh kk

#

ty

hollow escarp
#

when you kill the first one

agile geode
#

nice

fallen current
#

Enjoy doing 0 damage in plaguefall

hollow escarp
#

not sure if it's intended

stoic needle
hollow escarp
#

speaking of ranged

#

why can't I get a fire mage to carry me?

stoic needle
hollow escarp
#

yeah, I guess I was interpreting the tooltip wrong

stoic needle
#

Nah the tooltip doesn't say anything about reapplication so I get it

dawn ivy
#

wait the debuff "moves" to a new target randomly or the next target you hit

hollow escarp
#

not randomly

#

the next one you attack

dawn ivy
#

ok cool

hollow escarp
#

do you guys dot the other 2 bosses for energy regen on council?

#

I've never did it

#

and I just thought it might be a good idea

stoic needle
#

Just a garotte

cunning needle
#

wait wtf assi is actually top tier now at anything ST

#

looking through wclog rankings

hollow escarp
#

we wish

safe canyon
# hollow escarp

Currently leveling as muti. Fire mage talking shit when we started, i doubled his damage overall and tripled it on bosses. Was hilarious

sleek sparrow
cunning needle
stoic needle
#

OUR TIME HAS COME BROTHERS AND SISTERS

dawn ivy
#

we'll see better statistics over the next few weeks

cunning needle
stoic needle
hollow escarp
#

don't check all percentiles

stoic needle
#

It's only going to get better as more people get high rank sin legendaries

hollow escarp
#

do a 95 to exclude the PI fed logs

cunning needle
#

ah

hollow escarp
#

and don't check council

cunning needle
#

still good on hungering!

stoic needle
#

Council doesn't exist

cunning needle
#

or sunking?

stoic needle
#

It's a fever dream

hollow escarp
cunning needle
#

yeah tested it on the PTR

#

lots of adds to dot ๐Ÿ™‚

stoic needle
#

Sort by 'damage to bosses'

hollow escarp
#

that sounds fun

#

lol

stoic needle
#

We are #1 or 2 for damage to bosses on every fight

#

Yuppp

#

TO THE MOON

dawn ivy
#

sin became really good kinda abruptly so as time goes on better sin rogues willget the right gear, and itll go up a little bit more

cunning needle
#

BRB CHANGING ROLE

rapid flame
#

is it worth to start gearing my 180 rogue (old main)? ;D

hollow escarp
#

you know better

cunning needle
#

dw

#

nerfs inc

#

fun was detected

hollow escarp
#

if you have KSM on your main

#

it's easy to get gear on a new alt

queen galleon
rapid flame
#

true, i'd still have to go through the hassle of get enough r.io on my alt to be able to pug 14/15 for gear/valor to upgrade.

verbal sparrow
#

crafting leges with haste crit or haste vers ??

sleek sparrow
#

If you have good io on your main and decent ilvl on an alt it's pretty easy to get into 14 pugs

hollow escarp
#

the gearing progress up to 220 is not that bad

queen galleon
#

Buy a pvp boost -> get 220 -> profit

hollow escarp
#

because you can upgrade +3 key gear to 220 if you really have to

oblique flare
queen galleon
#

I mean

#

It's just stuffing an alt

hollow escarp
#

I find gearing from 140-197 harder considering how much honor you need to get all honor gear

oblique flare
#

everyone buying boosts disgust me

hollow escarp
#

I'm selling them happymalddent

queen galleon
#

I've climbed 2k1 rbg on main

sleek sparrow
queen galleon
#

I don't have the patience to do that again

stoic needle
stiff thistle
#

isnt farming campaign gear fastest

oblique flare
queen galleon
#

I mean 1400 to 1800 2c2 is 1M

ruby birch
queen galleon
#

who fucking cares about 1M

ruby birch
#

1 MILLION

#

FOR 1800?

#

IN 2S?

stoic needle
#

I've made 350k on m+ boosts this week

oblique flare
#

ye

hollow escarp
#

yep

queen galleon
#

yep

stiff thistle
hollow escarp
#

pvp boosts are so expensive

ruby birch
#

WHAT

hollow escarp
#

and if you have a low win rate, you are fucked

queen galleon
#

depends what you consider expensive

#

I boost m+

hollow escarp
#

because you will get a bigger price

queen galleon
#

Earlier in xpac

oblique flare
ruby birch
hollow escarp
#

a +10 armor stack is like 85k gold

ruby birch
#

dude

strange python
#

btw - am I crazy or is the venthyr campaign better and more fun to play then Nightfae?

oblique flare
#

boosting is free real estate man

stiff thistle
ruby birch
#

i need to start selling

stoic needle
#

I can't believe I ever actually farmed leather and picked herbs

queen galleon
#

But guys don't start dreaming

stoic needle
#

What a bunch of wasted time

ruby birch
#

but school

#

sigh

queen galleon
#

Community who find you client take a huge cut

stoic needle
#

I should've just got my rio up and boosted

queen galleon
#
  • advertiser take a cut
balmy condor
#

I would buy a boost to have this channel go back on topic

ruby birch
#

so, back to getting parried

queen galleon
#

so much time saved

#

you don't even have to play

oblique flare
#

on alts i can understand it tbf

queen galleon
#

Yeah on alt

balmy condor
oblique flare
#

though there are people going full boost on their mains

inland heath
#

what is the opener for aoe with master assasin?

hollow escarp
ruby birch
queen galleon
#

oopsi @balmy condor

#

didn't read

stiff thistle
#

@ruby birchhttps://i.imgur.com/wRwHRz1.png

#

not renown

stoic needle
#

I thought it was bofa?

ruby birch
#

for campaign you need renown though

stiff thistle
#

true, but not that much

#

u get it super fast

#

LFR etc

queen galleon
#

20th run for vial wish me luck Sadge

ruby birch
queen galleon
#

not even the ring looted

stiff thistle
#

I got 36 in 2 days without finishing campaign

queen galleon
sleek sparrow
#

But you need ilvl to get to lfr FeelsKEKMan

stiff thistle
#

exdee

hollow escarp
#

ohh, you guys still farming phial?

stiff thistle
#

true

queen galleon
#

Yeah

ruby birch
#

my DH has 3 phials

#

my rogue has 0

queen galleon
#

got it on first run but tank wanted it for dps spec !!!!!

ruby birch
#

that's after selling a couple phials on my DH

stoic needle
#

I've seen 3 phials this week

queen galleon
#

so he kept it !!! (kill me)

stoic needle
#

I need a pox man

inland heath
#

there are 8 targets i you just do normal single target burst ? o.0 @hollow escarp

sleek sparrow
#

Ofc he did, he was probably only tanking it for faster picks lol

stiff thistle
stoic needle
#

I'm so tired of running pf, it's like sire kills now I know the whole dungeon by heart

#

Where my CDs come up

hollow escarp
#

you said aoe

stoic needle
#

FOK FOK CT

inland heath
#

but i am playing nightstalker with MA leg

hollow escarp
#

ohh

sleek sparrow
hollow escarp
#

fok maybe

#

idk

ruby birch
#

FOK into CT still works no?

inland heath
#

yea i was thinking that

#

seems kinda stupid tho

hollow escarp
#

night stalker also works on bleeds, just saying

stoic needle
#

CT gets snapshotted with NS

inland heath
#

yea but the garrote its not empowered at all

hollow escarp
#

so you mfd

#

ct

stoic needle
#

So you want to hold 5 cp and CT from stealth

#

Then fok rup fok rup

#

Toss a garotte in there

hollow escarp
#

I wanna try nightstalker now lol

stoic needle
#

It's actually not that much worse than subterfuge

inland heath
#

seems alot more fun than subterfuge

hollow escarp
#

garrote damage in m+ is pretty good with Subt

#

it's usually garrote or CT top damage

stoic needle
#

Yeah

#

You can also run DS with NS

#

For a bigger snapshotted CT

hollow escarp
#

Theotar, Master Poisoner Hmmmge

stoic needle
hollow escarp
#

gonna try this in some boost keys

stoic needle
#

Don't int your boosts FeelsWeird

hollow escarp
#

but I usually wanna play safe and have good damage so I break this "sin is bad in m+" reputation

hollow escarp
stoic needle
#

CT NS could be legit

#

Especially with theotar

#

But not on tyrannical week

hollow escarp
#

or ToP

rapid lance
#

do we use elaborate planning now?

balmy condor
#

no

#

only in m+

rapid lance
#

ah ok

livid temple
#

Idk why but for me nightstalker sims like 130 more than subterfuge? I'm not complaining because getting Giga CT with MA and sub is funny as hell, watching my opener burst for like 12k

prisma perch
#

what is the better ST leggy DB or DS?

true imp
#

is sin viable in m+ compared to outlaw?

true imp
#

really dont like outlaw aoe rotation

oblique flare
#

sin is good, doesn't beat outlaw as far as i know, but very solid

true imp
#

probs better ST on the bosses though right?

oblique flare
#

yeah, better ST i believe

#

loses to outlaw necro in aoe

prisma perch
#

what is the better ST leggy DB or DS?

livid temple
#

I mean the outlaw rotation is just stale bread to me. It's so basic the only thing mildly fun about outlaw is KS and MA but then you cuck your ST so hard sometimes I fine it not worth running...

true imp
#

yeah, i find multidotting way more fun

prisma perch
#

I need help on my leggy

#

idk which one for raiding

livid temple
#

I beat our guilds outlaw on our huntsman kill and inerva kill so I was pretty happy about that, he beat me on Kael but if you aren't looking at boss damage on Kael then you are hard trolling

prisma perch
#

doomblade and scoundrel are in the faq

livid temple
#

So I'm guessing when we can equip two legendaries it will be Doomblade (if it doesn't get nerfed ๐Ÿคž ) and scoundrel? Or would Zold have more synergy with DB

strange python
ebon tapir
#

No

stoic needle
#

doomblade + zold seems like it would be the play because execute is really powerful

#

but dashing + zold would be some giga dps probably

livid temple
#

No but I'd be surprised if that wasn't part of the raid progression, like 'gather 200 shards of domination from these 3 bosses and then you will be able to equip two legendaries'

ebon tapir
#

I really don't want to waste conduit energy to sim. I have to ask, is Sudden Fractures really as good as Hero damage says it is? Even on AoE?

waxen nebula
#

Ran plaguefall with a venthyr outlaw, he was doing really good

strange python
#

good night folks - have fun

placid adder
#

Venthy outlaw for keys yikers

hollow escarp
#

yeah, imagine doing 200 less dps overall

void pecan
#

Puke.

#

Non min maxing filth

hollow escarp
#

min maxing off spec PEPW

stiff thistle
#

digusting

void pecan
#

I say as I'm still nf and cant decide if switching is worth

hollow escarp
#

Ambidexterity Theotar YEP

#

NF is still fine

#

I wouldn't have changed if Venthyr didn't sim 5% more for me

#

but I have nice assa gear overall

stiff thistle
#

for assass single target swapping would be worth, but if youre doing m+ aswell

#

maybe not, up 2 u

#

id say, play what is most fun ๐Ÿ™‚

queen galleon
#

New run of PF : No vial okaychamp
: No ring okaychamp

#

NO COV POINT

void pecan
#

I'm not a high key andy

queen galleon
hollow escarp
#

at least you had fun

queen galleon
#

FUN ?

#

what's that

stiff thistle
#

playing for fun is what its all about ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

queen galleon
#

Fun died when we got jebaited at release by dev "lol sub is good !"

#

for me

hollow escarp
#

well, they didn't nerf sub

queen galleon
#

they didn't maintain it alive either

stiff thistle
#

was it ever better in pve

hollow escarp
#

I think it was first weeks

stiff thistle
#

i mean hasnt sub just been pvp class for ages now

queen galleon
#

ToS remember sad

#

It was decent legion

#

I guess

hollow escarp
#

it was

#

because my group didn't wanted me to play assa

queen galleon
#

Subbed lul

#

I mean at this point, despite monk and dk I don't know why even try to play melee in raid environment

#

like what was the last tier where melee > ranged

subtle tundra
#

holy fuck deeper stratagem feels so dogshit to play with

queen galleon
#

^ this

livid temple
#

Just level 4 rogues so you have one in each covenant

stiff thistle
#

same, sims higher but feels like shit, same with ghostly strike on outlaw for ST

tacit forum
#

That moment that you beat a sub rogue with PI on sludge with 10 ilvl less.

subtle tundra
#

why would sub get pi

queen galleon
#

Sub pi ? monkaW

livid temple
#

I agree about DS but my min maxing self won't let me take vigor even though it's only a 50 dps loss

hollow escarp
#

I kinda wanna quote somebody on DS complaints

subtle tundra
#

never said first 5 seconds

tacit forum
#

Idk man this dude is 226 sub

#

From pvp and m+ demanding it

stiff thistle
tacit forum
#

In the end he got kicked

#

๐Ÿ˜‚

subtle tundra
#

i hate playing with deeper stratagem overall

hollow escarp
#

it's only slow in the first few seconds

stiff thistle
#

if it feels like shit ure prob playing worse with it, idk

hollow escarp
#

you don't play Alacrity?

subtle tundra
#

i hate having to use 3 generators to get to spend combo points

stiff thistle
#

alacrity takes time to ramp up either way

#

opener will feel like shit

#

still

tacit forum
#

I found that if you are not Venthyr itโ€™s not worth to run DS

#

The extra energy is way too big of a deal

hollow escarp
#

you cast vendetta pretty soon anyway, and by the time it's done, you already have 5 alacrity stacks

queen galleon
#

Guildmate is NF and Vigor sim higher for him

#

for me, a venthyr, it's like +50 for ds

hollow escarp
#

DS simmed better for me even when I was NF PepeLaugh

stiff thistle
#

I think personally preference will make you play better even if something sims +50 dps higher by a robot

#

doesnt mean u will gain 50 in reality

subtle tundra
#

getting at most 2 envenoms in toxic blade

#

feels bad

#

and most of the time 1

queen galleon
#

Most of the times I get 2 and sometimes 3

hollow escarp
#

I get 2-3 with DS

#

your mutilates never crit?

stoic needle
#

deeper strat is good

#

i want sin to be as slow as possible

#

give me 30apm

#

25

#

let's go

queen galleon
#

Low APM on sludge MM

tacit forum
stoic needle
#

you get it

tacit forum
#

Is probably a beginner friendly talent

rapid lance
#

do most use subt or MA on m+?

stoic needle
#

i think vigor is def the beginner friendly one

tacit forum
#

Cuz spamming mut and envenom is not good

hollow escarp
#

20k envenoms

queen galleon
#

What's your crit % on envenoms btw

queen galleon
#

I feel like my dps is garbage or not bcs of envenoms crit

hollow escarp
#

I think I have 25% crit on my raiding set

stoic needle
#

26% crit gang

hollow escarp
#

35% in m+

queen galleon
#

23% crit andy FBM

nocturne hawk
stoic needle
hollow escarp
#

??

#

is it bad?

stoic needle
#

no that's amazing

queen galleon
#

how much haste do you have kojack

stoic needle
#

how tf

tacit forum
nocturne hawk
#

yeee

#

Thought it would be a lot more, like atleast double

hollow escarp
stiff thistle
#

needs more haste my man

hollow escarp
#

it's fine for m+

tacit pilot
#

so with venth conv now is our opener still the same as the pin?

hollow escarp
#

I have stacks of gems in my bags just to change haste to crit whenever I switch content OMEGALUL

stiff thistle
#

most top m+'ers run around 20% i think?

#

30crit - 20haste or something

hollow escarp
#

top m+ players don't really play sin

stiff thistle
#

not top of all players

#

top assass players

hollow escarp
#

well I'm top 100 world, does that count? concerned_ez

stiff thistle
hollow escarp
#

haste is more valuable single target

fleet anchor
#

Changing covenants for 30 dps ๐Ÿ‘Œ Not pressing buttons occasionally for 30 dps peepono

stiff thistle
#

guess it matters less in foritifed weeks

#

fortified*

queen galleon
#

Tier gear coming back next tier btw ?

#

I think i saw that somewhere

hollow escarp
#

Ion was discussing about it on an interview

#

and also saying that Torghast is a source of inspiration for tier sets

queen galleon
#

I miss having to mix last tier and current tier

stoic needle
#

man i wish i'd gone crit/haste on my zoldycks pepehands

hollow escarp
#

this though Yikes

#

you can always farm more soul ash

velvet nacelle
#

how high are you guys spiking on your openers?

hollow escarp
#

not that high

#

10k ish if lucky

velvet nacelle
#

yeah with subterfuge i was regularly opening over 10k, switching to deeper and MA seems to slow down the opener quite a bit

#

sustain is a lot better so i'm not complaining

slow marsh
#

Where my 29.5% crit gang at?

velvet nacelle
#

just curious what other people were seeing

rapid lance
#

what's the opener with subt on m+?

brittle pawn
hollow escarp
stoic needle
#

10-12k here

hollow escarp
#

or 4

rapid lance
#

ah k

tacit pilot
#

so with venth conv now is our opener still the same as the pin?

hollow escarp
#

pretty sure the pin is updated for the venthyr changes

stoic needle
#

with venth cov just vend and flag before rupture

#

otherwise it's the same

tacit pilot
#

ah ok it doesnt say when to use it XD

velvet nacelle
#

before rupture?

hollow escarp
#

flag damage is based on cp spent, so using rupture after Flag is better

sinful fable
#

So, with Master Assa leggo, what does the opener look like in m+? Still just 3 garrote into rupt+CT?

#

so basicly just do the same except everything crits? ๐Ÿ˜„ feelsgood

hollow escarp
#

yeah

#

but you can use vanish for MA foks and cts ๐Ÿ˜‰

#

or before envenoms

sinful fable
#

Do you ever re-cast CT before the duration is gone?

hollow escarp
#

depends on mob HP because you could pandemic the dot

#

but tbf, the gameplay is so hectic in M+ sometimes that I use CT just to apply it on some mobs that didn't get it yet

#

example the first room on Gorechop corridor in ToP

sinful fable
#

yeah thats what I felt during my runs now trying to learn assa, my trash damage was semi scuffed at times

#

like garrote x 3 into rupt and some fok->ct->more fok+rupt

stoic needle
#

refreshing it in pandemic is def preferred to letting it fall off

#

dont be afraid to drop 2-3cp ruptures into stuff

sinful fable
#

oh are we basicly using it for energy in aoe?

stoic needle
#

energy and damage

hollow escarp
#

5 cp ruptures are often wasted because mobs don't survive 30 sec

#

you do get energy back

dark vigil
#

yep cock

#

Bedge .oO ( Pog )

sinful fable
#

oh, so I guess just FoK and use rupt with however many cp's you got then huh

#

unless its bigger mobs ofc

hollow escarp
#

even on bigger mobs it's not that bad because you can always reapply rupture in pandemic window

#

you will be more likely targeting bigger mobs anyway

#

so it will be easier to track dots on them

tropic echo
#

as a vulpera would you bag of tricks during vendetta?

stoic needle
#

still doesn't make those 1cp foks feel any better verysadge

hollow escarp
#

I only use vulpera for my bank toons on horde realms PepeLaugh

tropic echo
#

๐Ÿ˜ฆ

hollow escarp
#

not sure what bag of tricks does

tropic echo
#

it's the 4th highest simming horde race for sin

and i like foxes

balmy condor
#

Yeah you would cast with cds

tropic echo
#

it's a nuke/heal on a 2 min cd

#

does more dmg than max point envenom

hollow escarp
#

ohh nice

stoic needle
#

a comment on wowhead says that the bag doesn't benefit from shiv or vendetta

tropic echo
#

basically a free trinket lol

stoic needle
#

might wanna check

radiant fossil
#

wait what ? am i race swapping to vulpera ? vulpera

tropic echo
#

im not sure if it would cause vendetta says "your abilities" but it's a racial ability so idk

stoic needle
#

only way to find out is to check it

subtle tundra
#

its a gcd ^^

radiant fossil
#

here I am reassured

hollow escarp
#

I'm alliance and I wouldn't play mechagnome

stoic needle
#

mechagnomes disgust

tropic echo
#

5th highest* kek

#

yes you do have to

#

just look how cute they are!!

stoic needle
radiant fossil
tropic echo
hollow escarp
#

tbf, vulpera outlaw sounds interesting

stoic needle
#

i mean if you think it's cute hell yeah

#

have fun

hollow escarp
#

reminds me of puss in boots from shrek

tropic echo
#

im not a furry

#

promise

radiant fossil
#

sure ๐Ÿ˜‰

stoic needle
#

we have a resident furry

#

we love him

hollow escarp
#

we don't judge here

#

we just talk about our favorite rogue spec

tropic echo
#

fuck it maybe I am a furry

nocturne hawk
#

Don't they have a secondary hearth as well?

tropic echo
#

vulpera master race

#

but you literally can just put it anywhere you want as long as it's outside and return there on a 1hr cd

queen galleon
#

Perma checking wowhead right now wishing a SLG nerf so my guild do not disband like every mid tier guild

tropic echo
#

also there's different "tricks" you can get for the bag racial from old raid bosses

#

ragnaros and cho'gall are the two different damage ones, i forget what the other healing one is

radiant fossil
#

I find Dena more challenging than slg tbh. Atleast with my guild SucksMan

queen galleon
#

Oh ?

#

Most of raiders I spoke to told me SLG > dena

#

for some reasons

hollow escarp
#

recruiting is more challenging than all 4 last bosses imo

tropic echo
#

also vulpera have a pretty nice passive for m+ unironically lol

hollow escarp
#

we will be 2 rogues on council prog tomorrow PepegaHands

tropic echo
#

the first time you take damage from something it's reduced by 5% of your max hp

hollow escarp
queen galleon
#

@hollow escarp Outlaw perf decent on Council

nocturne hawk
#

Even if no dps -- every man best racial imo

queen galleon
#

if you don't have good boomy

#

Depends what your guild need

#

burst or cleave

hollow escarp
#

that racial saved me some cloaks on Xymox

tropic echo
#

oh it's best for tanks i imagine

radiant fossil
#

TJ stop speaking about Vulpera. I hate that race and you start to make me love it ๐Ÿ˜ก

hollow escarp
#

I can cloak ghost for more dps

#

because humans in my guild can clear traps

tropic echo
#

lmfao

queen galleon
#

Just send slave dk to clear trap pepeA

hollow escarp
#

we don't have any

nocturne hawk
#

Yeah I do the same if its just 1 bad trap

queen galleon
#

Not even one ?

hollow escarp
#

an alt

#

from a shadow priest

queen galleon
#

God you must have fun on council

#

lmao

radiant fossil
#

Atleast as a rogue you arent a seed carrier like me and my hunt pepehands

hollow escarp
#

I don't mind seed carrying, I did some emergency ones

queen galleon
#

Rogue is most of the times backup for seed yeah

hollow escarp
#

monk is main melee seed

vital haven
#

outlaw rogue is actually really good for like a melee seed

hollow escarp
#

yes

radiant fossil
#

Wait you guys have melee seed carrier ?

nocturne hawk
#

i've never touched a seed, can you pop soulshape and whatnot?

vital haven
#

yes

queen galleon
#

@radiant fossil we had a dh for melee one

nocturne hawk
#

Oh ez, all NF on seed duty then lol

hollow escarp
#

but we have 3 mages, 3 hunters, it's easy to assign seeds

radiant fossil
#

Well, we have only range seed carrier ...

vital haven
#

outlaw rogues even on the hardest seeds just basically grappling hook towards the portal and thats pretty much it

arctic night
#

Do trinkets work with Master Assasain talent?

vital haven
#

no

nocturne hawk
#

First kill on xymox I was Law... cleared a huge string of traps with cloak hook... was pog

queen galleon
#

Speaking about comp, we finally gonna get our first progress war pog

hollow escarp
#

ohh yeah

queen galleon
#

Finally 5% buff

radiant fossil
#

You guys switched to sin for the rest of the progress ? or you still play outlaw ?

hollow escarp
queen galleon
nocturne hawk
#

lmao, yeah hook is good times, step is ok but way less fun

hollow escarp
#

step is fun on sub

radiant fossil
#

@queen galleon sounds good for sludge and Dena p3

nocturne hawk
#

step in arena baiting someone to fall off a platform

queen galleon
#

Sin is really good for sludge

#

so yeah

hollow escarp
#

double on use for sludge EZ

#

not sure if Skulkers is the play there

queen galleon
#

It is

#

risky some times

#

but it is

hollow escarp
#

yeah, but you need to soak during damage burst

#

so you will get dragged out

queen galleon
#

I was playing Inerva + skulker on sludge first pull

#

then got back to vial

#

bcs i got bored of two on use

nocturne hawk
#

wait, thought dub use trinkets causes 20 sec cd, or just alternate on pillars?

hollow escarp
#

been using skulkers + vessel for quite a while

queen galleon
#

Alternate on pillars

nocturne hawk
#

ah ok

hollow escarp
#

you can use one on pull I guess

#

and then alternate each pillar

queen galleon
#

You preuse inerva

#

like 20 sec before

#

so you have skulker on first inerva second skulker three etc

hollow escarp
#

stacking inerva with people in raid sounds fun

queen galleon
#

Yeah, when people loot it and equip it kekW

hollow escarp
#

we have 3 in raid so far

queen galleon
#

Hope they know about prepull using it

hollow escarp
#

no idea, I'm not using it

nocturne hawk
#

I've just been running vessel/chain for fist, chain just seems to keep up pretty well. I'll try skulkers tuesday

queen galleon
#

I mean

#

that's not big of a difference

#

don't worry

#

I went back to vial for myself

velvet nacelle
#

i think i'm gonna run some M+ as assassination tonight

#

still need to finish KSM

tropic echo
#

Is it weird to deliberately hold envenom until full energy? I assume abilities apply poisons as well

#

To be able to throw the highest amount attacks while buffed from envenom

hollow escarp
#

you mean shiv?

radiant fossil
#

i think we are supposed to do that to max dps

velvet nacelle
#

you'd really only hold envenom for uptime on the debuff

tropic echo
#

I mean envenom

dense bramble
#

you should envenom with at least 80 energy, i believe

tropic echo
#

Idk what shiv does with conduits later Iโ€™m still leveling lol

dense bramble
#

no need to pool more then that

#

shiv increases your nature damage on your target by a few % and a few more with conduit

tropic echo
#

So shiv then envenom then continue as usual

#

also I will once again implore anyone not to level in assassination until 37 lol

hollow escarp
#

it's not a pleasant experience for sure

peak sandal
#

P sure you level as outlaw until you get mfd and/or shadow dance then you finish as sub

hollow escarp
#

even speed runners used to level as outlaw

peak sandal
#

Leveling as assa is miserable because no haste

#

And mut costs 55 energy

velvet nacelle
#

levleling as outlaw or sub feels way better, yeah

tropic echo
#

My haste is actually okay, the issue is no energy from bleeds until lvl 37

nocturne hawk
#

55 cost mut?!

tropic echo
#

you can't sustain aoe

nocturne hawk
velvet nacelle
#

soothing shadows is nice for uptime

tropic echo
#

my mut only costs 50 at 37 idk if rank 2 mutilate is a thing or when you get it

peak sandal
#

50

#

55

#

W/e

Idk how to read I just press buttons

Actual same. I didn't even know sprint gave water walk as sub till a few nights ago

peak sandal

LMAO

Used to be a glyph

#

Used go be a glyph to make it 100% speed too iirc

tropic echo
#

dont say glyph man

you're making me miss when heroic throw used to interrupt & silence lol

velvet nacelle
#

it was a artifact trait in legion for the sub weapons

#

also, immunity to fall damage

cunning needle
peak sandal
#

Artifact trait for sub to make them take no fall damage too

velvet nacelle
#

which was amazing

cunning needle
#

oh man the immune to fall damage was so much fun

#

just randomly drop down from things

hollow escarp
#

it was only for sub though

nocturne hawk

ah, I missed legion, started back up in 8.1 from Wotlk

tropic echo

i miss glyphs

@nocturne hawk it really doesn't

waxen cloak

!guide

velvet nacelle
#

now i gotta add a weak aura for CT to track the timer. LIFE IS SO HARD

tropic echo
#

well hopefully leveling in sin feels 100000x better with venomous wounds

balmy condor
#

It wonโ€™t lmao

tropic echo
#

it should

i actually have a reason to rupture/garrote in aoe

balmy condor
#

Sin leveling is depressingly bad

hollow escarp
#

it's a challenge

velvet nacelle
#

i mean you'll feel venomous but it's not gonna be significant

balmy condor
#

It got buffed by 1

cunning needle
#

people level as sin?

balmy condor
#

You wonโ€™t notice it

tropic echo
#

yeah but

#

having it vs not having it

#

should be a huge difference

#

lol

hollow escarp
balmy condor
tropic echo
#

not having it sucks ass there's almost never a reason for me to press rupture unless im fighting a boss

balmy condor
#

Are you actually leveling sin

fleet anchor
#

I would level as Sub 110% of the time

tropic echo
#

yes

balmy condor
#

Before you have venomous wounds

hollow escarp
#

if you have heirlooms, swap to outlaw now

nocturne hawk
#

Leveling as law sucked too before combat potency lol

tropic echo
#

i dont have outlaw looms lol

fleet anchor
#

Sub has teleporting Shadowstrike, that's all you need to know ๐Ÿ˜„

balmy condor
#

Outlaw has special looms?

cunning needle
#

I don't get people level in anything other than sub

tropic echo
#

weapons

#

sub and sin use daggers, outlaw uses non-daggers

balmy condor
#

Well only 1 non-dagger

cunning needle
#

teleporting shadow strike and sustain with regen in stealth

tropic echo
#

1 is basically the same as 2 with looms lol

#

or rather 2 is 1

fleet anchor
#

Soothing Darkness is kinda op yeah

hollow escarp
#

tbf, leveling sin will make you appreciate it at max level PepeLaugh

#

so you won't be the guy that complains it's too slow anymore

cunning needle
#

I did level my first rogue as sin when I started in cata

nocturne hawk
#

suffered enough!

cunning needle
#

and I refused to use envenom because i thought it'd get rid of my poison buff

tropic echo
#

the only rogue spec ive properly played until now

#

was

cunning needle
#

and i'd have to reapply my poisons on my weap

tropic echo
#

combat ๐Ÿ˜…

#

i played combat rogue a bit in mop and that was the height of my rogue experience

cunning needle
#

combat spec was comfy

#

fuck outlaw

#

unless it becomes ranged

tropic echo
#

everything about combat felt nice

massive burst, massive aoe, massive aoe burst

#

iirc combat potency was something you could control and wasn't rng based like roll the bones supposedly is

#

or was

idk i haven't played outlaw lol

cunning needle
#

yep it stacked every time you casted sinister strike

#

so you could control when you'd go into red

tropic echo
#

all i remember was "get red CP and evis and 1shot an add"

#

fun times

#

lemme rephrase that

#

get red CP, revealing strike, evis, 1 shot whatever you touch

unborn eagle
#

sin leveling was a cake walk

fading mortar
#

can anyone look over this and help me with what i can improve on? most of my other fights ive been improving but,,

tropic echo
#

revealing sin sin evis boom

tropic echo
#

sin in open world feels fine

#

but in dungeons pre 37 it's fucking terrible

fleet anchor
#

I mean Sub has been the easiest leveling spec ever since the teleport was put in since with Heirlooms or good weapons there have been multiple xpacs where you literally just one-shot everything and restealth lol

#

But leveling is always pretty easy

tropic echo
#

i kinda wish there was a talent that made shadowstep refresh on kill

fleet anchor
#

That'd be nice

tropic echo
#

DKs have grip refresh

fleet anchor
#

Sounds like a glyph to me

tropic echo
#

and warriors have double charge

fleet anchor

signal gulch

survival has harpoon reset

cunning needle
tropic echo

lol

cunning needle

best we get is a 2nd charge as sub

that would give rogues insane mobility in BGs though so idk if that would be okay

cunning needle
#

would it?

balmy condor
#

Rogues donโ€™t get nice things

nocturne hawk
#

I'm about to lvl another rogue just to farm BF pants faster... rag hates me for the last 12 weeks

signal gulch

rogue only gets spaghetti code pepehands

balmy condor

They just crank the sin aura until it does deeps

And then ignore everything else

And that's why we don't have it anymore

haste crit for doomblade leggo ya?

Haste crit gang

valid plaza
#

On fights like Council, do we FoK for CP / keep bleeds on others for energy and just dump envenoms etc into prio target? Or... is there something else to do there?

strange python
#

think sin is worth it on SLG for prio damage?

lilac haven
#

just garrote on the other targets for council

nocturne hawk
#

^ just garrote no rupts

lavish brook
#

Is gloomblade leggo a low drop rate?

radiant fossil
#

@strange python i dont think so. Sin isnt a great funnel spec. I mean you will do damage to goliath and boss but other class do the same and cleave better. Unless you did giga damage, outlaw will win this fight

strange python
#

I think itโ€™s 100%??

#

yeah was looking at logs and lookds like outlaw is the play there

hollow escarp
#

don't remember where it drops from

strange python
#

Itโ€™s from torghast

lavish brook
#

I just did mort'regar twice on layer 3

#

no drop

#

like fock

strange python
#

Must be 100 at layer 8

#

Just go on group finder dude and find a layer 8 group

#

Or make one and blast

lavish brook
#

yeah but I can just stealth to the last boss on 3

strange python
#

I did it with 4 rogues and a resto Druid we stealthed the whole way through

lavish brook
#

i thought it was 100%

radiant fossil
#

@strange python Logs are cool to follow but if you want to play sin on slg you can. But only if you do good and do the job. If you can nuke goliath on demand, you have a spot.

prisma monolithBOT
strange python
#

well im NF and feel like to get the most burst from sin i would want to be venthyr

#

could be mistaken though

radiant fossil

If your guild doesnt struggle with aoe and cleave for skirmishers, you can play sin and do the single target job.

strange python

only had one night of progress and we lost out WW monk so not sure how its gonna go tuesday haha

Oof

so ill prob be in for the monk

is it worth trying to throw a bleed on shades in p1 of sire?

or just FoK and focus boss

nocturne hawk

if your raid demolishes them then yeah

#

just fok

stoic needle
#

do your best sub impression and fok>envenom

nocturne hawk

my raid always has to stop dmg till last soak for the run

queen galleon
#

Are we speaking mythic or heroic here

tropic echo
#

sin is extremely good at funneling right?

queen galleon
#

Anyway even in Mythic it's kinda hard to throw bleed on shade so just Fok -> enve

fading mortar
#

@hexed root i made the doomblade leggo for pvp before patch

#

ive only been playing sin since the beginning, got daggers and ahvent gottenw eapons for anything else

lavish brook

man what the fuck

#

\

#

3 torg runs at mortregar and no doomblade

fading mortar
#

i got it my first run

i am never playing assa lol

it should be 100%, you might already have it

shadow agate
#

After opener we just use Flag on CD or do wait for it to line up with vendetta reset? on cd right?

lavish brook
#

naw i dont

shell ivy
#

I personally line up with all but dunno if itโ€™s correct

fading mortar
#

i do flag vendetta, snd and pump

#

for most cp uses

shadow agate
#

sure, I'm just saying outside the opener, I've been holding it till vendetta resets again, but wasn't sure if I was wasting a use on fights doing that

fading mortar
#

u can use it byu itself and on vendetta

#

1min and 2 min cds

shadow agate
#

1.5 min

fading mortar
#

yea, wait the other 30s

#

for vendettra on 2nd'

#

having it with vendetta will give u most CP

shadow agate
#

yeah that's felt right, but figured I'd check

drifting cloud
#

its not right

#

if its making you lose a cast

shy dust
#

you sync if you wont lose a cast

#

which requires some knowledge of fight timer

tribal marlin
fading mortar
#

so, very few instances where u dont just hold vendetta

tribal marlin
#

yeah, but it also depends on the fight itself

stoic needle
#

nvm miki got it lol

tribal marlin
#

Like sometimes even if a fight is a 8mn fight, you can rather see it as 2 consecutive fights of like 5mn and then 3mn

#

So you might want to sync the cooldowns even if it means you might loose a cast at some point, just because you want to push phases

#

This happen a lot in real world situation

#

One example could be Azshara, even if you might end up loosing a cast syncing, you still would want to sync so that you have both CD avaiable starting phase 3, and then again starting phase 4 etc...

violet wasp
#

In short, can it always be better to lose a cast and ensure maximum stacks with vendetta?

tribal marlin
#

Progression wise : Yes
Pure dps wise : Probably better to never sync

hexed root
#

do we go familiar perdiciments because the potency conduit out performs exacting preperation?

tribal marlin
#

Also I would heavily recommend you to check out logs and video of a given fight before starting a progression and adjust your cooldown regarding.

Try to get any PoV, look if you can fit your cooldown in a given order, if it appears there is a mechanics happening or that you want to push DPS later, then adjust. It's the very best way of dealing with a new encounter, it can save you a big chunk of pulls if everyone do this in your raid.

dawn shard
#

Is it normal to lack energy when doing new opener with Venthyr, DS Sin build? Find that after mut>snd>mut i have to wait before the next steps

tribal marlin
#

Gotta use Thistle Tea in the opener
edit : it's a joke !!!

dawn shard
#

lol i wish

tribal marlin
#

it's normal and fine doing so

dawn shard
#

Okay cool thought maybe i didnt have the haste for it

tribal marlin
#

You can swap SnD and Rupture if you wish too, that should not have any impact on the overall dps and might feels a bit better, but you'll still starve a bit before 4th global

strange python
#

Was one thing I was curious about aswell....see alot of top parsing sin rogues using ds over vigor

fading mortar
#

alot of times i do the rupture before dns

#

snd

#

i guess it would help to look at high parse sin rogue logs

#

havent done that at all.

#

with just now getting to doing sire more, this is where im noticing my drop in dps

strange python
#

Most of them are pretty even on certain talent choices

tribal marlin
#

Parses are tainted by encounter rng unfortunately

fading mortar
#

+12-14 keys averaging like 4.5k dps

tribal marlin
#

you could possibly see someone doing wrong but parsing high because he got blessed by rng

fading mortar
#

stone legion and sire im dropping off

tribal marlin
#

Opener usually are very marginally impactful on your overall performance, if it has any impact at all

fading mortar
#

my boss damage in keys, not the overall including CT and all that

strange python
#

I'm guessing cuz the dmg amp from doomblade makes ds the better play? Just without flag buff I feel like u will be hella starved...but I havent tested ds in raid yet

fading mortar
#

im gonna try DS now, i havent been using it at all

#

energy is hard enough as it is atm

strange python
#

Oh I didnt see the updated pin about ds...but yeah I did heroic tonight but ran with vigor almost the entire time. Guess I'll try ds out next time

this week's torghast power is fun

ebon bramble

what is this week's torghast power?

gray fjord
#

Demon Hunter Simulator

#

Screen goes black either on a cooldown or after every 5 kills, depending on which one you pick.

#

Gives tons of damage boosts and stuff but literally can't see unless you're a haxxor like me.

ebon bramble
#

looooooooooool

#

what do you use to haxxor?

gray fjord
#

There's a toy that makes your screen all funny

#

And it removes the darkness

#

Think it's called like scroll of storytelling? I forget. Some of other things might do it too but yeah if you use that it removes the darkness all the time as long as you refresh the toy.

nocturne hawk
#

Oh the one that makes your screen try to look like its a story on parchment

gray fjord
#

^

#

Yeppo, it removes the darkness visual, but you keep the bonuses.

#

Super cheese that'll no doubt be fixed eventually. lol

lol smart though

ebon bramble

oooo

lol smart indeed

velvet nacelle
#

as a guy who has played outlaw almost exclusively in M+ since legion

dense quest
#

how big is the difference between necro and vent sin ? should i change my covenant ? : S im necro btw, venthyr ability looks nice

velvet nacelle
#

assassination is hella fun

#

venthyr is nice because it's fire and forget basically

#

use it inside of vendetta and when you're about to spam finishers and that's about as much thought as you have to put into it

#

i dropped about 500-1k overall dps in m+ but i do so much more single target right now

tribal marlin
velvet nacelle
#

and i'm sure i'll get some of that dps back once i get more used to the trash rotation

#

i keep letting snd drop because i'm focused on CT and spreading ruptures

tribal marlin
#

For now I'd say that Venthyr is the go, but it's possible depending on the shape that will take the next raid, that Necro might be better.

velvet nacelle
#

the necro shield is ridiculous

#

fleshcraft or whatever it's called

dense quest
tribal marlin
#

Necro is particullary good in a scenario like "Spread target cleave" because it allow you to funnel more ST damage from spread targets SBS'd, where you can't really get any benefit aside from maybe 1 or 2 additionnal dot with other covenant

#

If a fight like is a thing is the next raid, and if it's an important encounter then it's possible that Necro could be the play.

stoic needle
#

i'm going to laugh very hard if sin funnel becomes a thing

tribal marlin
#

I mean it's not really giga funneling

#

but it's still additionnal ST damage + cleave

#

where in such situation other covenant are basically ST

dense quest
#

yeah was watching that on w.logs, all the sins are venthyr for that ST damage i think

#

^^ ty for all of your advices btw

stoic needle
#

The encounter design of the next raid will be interesting for sure

tribal marlin
#

yeah, but about spread tarrget cleave ... hum it's also worth to mention that in such fight you might see some boomkins and warlock insteed of rogues ๐Ÿ˜„

stoic needle
#

Regardless it seems like a fun concept, funneling more damage into a target with big CP but cheap energy sbs

ebon bramble
#

we really wont know anything

#

its next tier...

blizzard could just be like "fuck ass rogues in the ass" and nerf us to zero dps

have to say tho, venthyr building flag stacks is pretty fun

I'd just like to see ranged get fukt next raid and we can just sit there and kill a target dummy

flag is just so smooth

to the rotation

The soulbinds are still a clown fiesta but I can deal with it because flag is fucking badass

I might switch to venthyr just for ease of use

ebon bramble

i runo, venthyr to me is like my fav, but necro tells me...it is better D:

its ok, they will give venthyr shit soulbinds in next tier
