That’s new stuff whisp right? We didn’t always do that with sepsis right

balmy condor
#

just drop it on prio

balmy condor
#

maybe like a month or so?

undone eagle
#

@balmy condor yeah but when ??

#

since i need to do a nice opener

balmy condor
undone eagle
#

i dont wanna mess something up

balmy condor
#

usually towards the start of a pull

pliant apex
subtle kiln
#

m g m f r

undone eagle
#

ah but good idea is maybe that i use Marked of death and use it?

loud silo
#

stop over complicating it

subtle kiln
#

toss a snd in there

#

if you don’t have it rolling

balmy condor
#

we're doing m+ pulls?

undone eagle
#

yep

#

no ST

loud silo
#

thank god im not qualified for this chat

undone eagle
#

xD

loud silo
#

whispyr save me

dense hamlet
balmy condor
#

subt 3 garrotes, rupture, generate, drop vend/flag/shiv on prio, continue as per normal

subtle kiln
#

what do you want raid or m+

undone eagle
#

aight cheers

subtle kiln
#

!guide

dense hamlet
#

open with MFD KIDNEY to show dominance + big internal bleeding DOT so big dam

burnt star
#

fair question someone asked earlier. and i was wondering too:
in fight like huntsman: would u delay flag/vend/shiv after both target get gar/rupt?

manic crescent
#

how many target should i dot max ?

loud silo
#

get bleeds on both targets then press go go buttons

burnt star
#

like would u mut-snd-mut-gar-rap 1 target. then mut-gar-continue regular opener on 2nd

#

u just answer 😉 thx

loud silo
#

depends how many you can handle

pliant apex
loud silo
#

most guides assume you can think for yourself

balmy condor
#

if there was stuff for every talent and every covenant

loud silo
#

I dont mean to sound toxic but thats a common thing

balmy condor
#

the guide would be like 900 pages long

loud silo
#

people follow guides to a tea and dont think

balmy condor
#

that is true

#

but guides are also not supposed to be the omega min-max

#

cause that minutia is often nuanced

loud silo
#

guides are for people to learn the basics

balmy condor
#

yep

loud silo
#

not the ins and outs of your spec

#

just learn by playing lmao

pliant apex
loud silo
#

This is true

stoic needle
#

asap on the opener so you can build stacks while getting your bleeds up

manic crescent
#

@loud silo This is literally a discord to help players get better at a class and you say think for yourself ?

dense hamlet
#

yes put ur bleeds up by MfD kidney and procing internal bleeding for VW pog

loud silo
#

I mean theres nothing wrong with asking for help but I'm just talking about the guide specifically

pliant apex
# loud silo people follow guides to a tea and dont think

That’s because most ppl don’t enjoy learning a class; they’re not passionate like some top players here, to them so much effort into learning a class isn’t worth it. They want to turn off their mind and follow a guide and that’s okay.

dawn breach
#

Which leggo do I want to use this week in m+?

stoic needle
dense hamlet
#

what the fuck

dawn breach
#

funny guy

loud silo
#

Holy shit some people really can't handle it

stoic needle
#

because it's impossible to get restealths this week

dawn breach
#

Yea, that's what I was thinking 🙂

pliant apex
#

I can handle stuff just fine, as long as it’s objective, as long as criticism is fair sir.

uneven summit
#

Do we delay Flag for Vendetta?

dense hamlet
loud silo
#

I wasn't targeting you at all

#

All I'm saying is guides can't have absolutely everything

#

And it would help if people thought about why the guides say what they do

#

but thats just my opinions so w/e

ebon bramble
ebon bramble
#

i wonder how far behind doomblade is in m+

iron orchid
#

but some people prefer MA, which is kinda unplayable as sin this week

ebon bramble
#

or dashing, i dnt actually know a lot of ppl using dashing lol

ebon bramble
stoic needle
#

its hard to quantify how behidn it is

iron orchid
stoic needle
#

cuz it makes you bettera t 1 thing and worse at others

balmy condor
#

MA NS was pretty gud yesterday

#

tbh

#

I mean

hushed sphinx
#

shout out to all the hunters this week not shooting little arrows at the shades fucking up my restealths

ebon bramble
#

beating a fire mage

#

🤔

balmy condor
#

yeh we're casuals

iron orchid
ebon bramble
#

trying to decide on legendary to craft lol 🤔

limber lion
loud silo
#

fire mage is purely reliant on the tank and the pulls

balmy condor
limber lion
#

Nice :')

iron orchid
#

on HoA 18, same route as last two weeks, our overall damage dropped 600ish

#

not just myself, but the group

ebon bramble
#

is it weird if i use doomblade in m+? lol bad idea?

iron orchid
#

somehow I just FEEL bad playing MA compared to the last two weeks

iron orchid
#

but I've played it by mistake last week and it didn't feel bad

ebon bramble
#

how much lower was overall damage?

onyx wind
#

kinda impossible to compare overall with different groups and different dungeons

ebon bramble
#

hmm true point

#

trying to figure out what to craft next lol

onyx wind
#

pretty sure zoldyck is better

#

doesnt lose value the higher the key gets

#

compared to stuff like MA

ebon bramble
#

ah ok

#

im guessing for zoldyck

onyx wind
#

but u can have success with anything

ebon bramble
#

legs?

dense hamlet
#

yes

slow marsh
#

I pop off with zold idk what the issue with some of y'all is

#

In m+

dense hamlet
#

nothing

slow marsh
#

But then again it's fortified so

#

I just see people asking about sin m+ all the time and I have no issues ever

#

I actually haven't equipped MA in a hot minute

onyx wind
#

same im sitting at 7k+ with zoldyc

proven granite
#

should I change my a and d keys to strafe left and right?

frail fossil
loud silo
#

yes

#

wdym?

proven granite
#

and turn camara with mouse?

loud silo
#

yeah

#

keyboarding turning is a nightmare

frail fossil
#

like fire mage is not about relying on well timing your cds

#

since combust is a 1min cd

proven granite
#

damn I neeed to get used to it

loud silo
#

strafing is just so much more reliable

#

i mean yeah its not the same anymore

frail fossil
#

how is that harder to time than just an adrenaline rush which has roughly the same cd

loud silo
#

but you still want the tank to pull big so you can lay a shit tonne of aoe down

frail fossil
#

u dont need to like

#

if tank does 4 mobs pull with combust u'll still top

#

that's not an assa discussion so i'll leave it there but

loud silo
#

theres variables to it but yeah lets leave it

gleaming parcel
#

Which gear slot should I make my doomblade lego and what missives should i use?

north nebula
#

Hands, I've heard. Don't remember specifically why though

quick vale
#

hands, crit haste is what i did. but simming usually gets best results for your character 🙂

loud silo
#

Hands because shoulders from SLG

gleaming parcel
#

Awesome, thanks for the help 🙂

shy dust
#

is one of the worst things I’ve heard

frail fossil
#

they literally have the same cd

loud silo
#

but the impact of AR compared to combust

shy dust
#

That doesn’t mean

#

They have equal impact

frail fossil
#

oh yeah it's nowhere near, just wondering why people are like fire mage need 5head cd timing when their cds are like so short

shy dust
#

I mean

frail fossil
#

a 3min cd is actually punishing if u use it wrong in a key

#

a 1min cd, it is less

loud silo
#

I never once mentioned cd timing

shy dust
#

You do need to be semi pulled around to do strong damage

#

Comparing it to ar

#

Which is basically useless

#

Is dumb

#

Do you ever tell a tank yeah I have ar can you pull big?

dense hamlet
#

yep

#

why not

shy dust
#

Because it’s literally not a strong cd in any way

dense hamlet
#

yep

#

thats why u bait the tank to pull for the mage

west blaze
#

Just use AR on cooldown pretty much

placid wharf
#

yo question

frail fossil
#

yeah but fire mage at this point got combust for all the pulls KEKW

shy dust
placid wharf
#

on hungering how do i avoid doing the consume

west blaze
#

and maybe save for pride

frail fossil
placid wharf
#

when do i cloak

dense hamlet
shy dust
#

Run out

#

Or

dense hamlet
#

since its 6sec

shy dust
#

Cloak a second after

frail fossil
#

after he finish his first cast

placid wharf
#

ty

frail fossil
#

u'll take one tick at the end

#

i do not recommend doing this if u're progressing the boss

dense hamlet
#

fuck it

shy dust
#

Thats pussy talk

#

Send it every pull

icy crater
#

i cloaked consume on prog 🙂

dense hamlet
#

yezzir

loud silo
#

min max every pull or get out of my face

shadow pivot
#

i mean

#

"prog" on renown 40 220+ raid ilvl

#

kekw

shy dust
#

By your definition

dense hamlet
#

?

shy dust
#

What dumbass shit is that

frail fossil
#

yes people progress raid at a different pace yep

dense hamlet
#

its easier

#

but

frail fossil
#

breaking news

icy crater
#

I guess theff is top 10 world

#

god gamer

dense hamlet
#

if u dont have any exp on the fight ur not gonna go in and kill it after first pull cuz u have 220 gear

shadow pivot
#

@shy dust definitly not what im saying. im saying you can totally do that today and it will be just fine, but it wasnt recommanded when undergeared

shy dust
#

Work on your wording then

strange python
#

It's not prog if you're not doing naked with broken bottles for weapons

shy dust
#

That came off extremely condescending

frail fossil
#

just that if u struggle killing the boss cloak is good to be used for actual survivability when u're in danger and not in a mechanic u can avoid by running away

dense hamlet
#

cheat=op

#

just attack

frail fossil
#

like on prog it can happen you'll get miasma and ring and no one soaked you so u're low

#

well having cloak for that is nice

dense hamlet
#

yeah it is

strange python
#

People are mad sensitive today

untold wagon
#

hey everyone, how come its suggested some places to open with mutilate and not ambush?

#

is it because of potentiel blindside proc?

prisma monolithBOT
#

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.

untold wagon
#

ah okay thanks 😄

sleek sparrow
#

On prog I always had to use cloak to clear orbs Sadge

flint summit
#

Wait, we ambush on sepsis proc? Isn't it still the same cost as normal ambush?

balmy condor
narrow ravine
#

what are the odds of flagellation conduit getting nerfed in pve?

balmy condor
#

I think he finally gave in tho kekw

#

not sure if that change is in sims

flint summit
#

So you send it on sepsis procs because of the higher damage? Opener mutilate is more for the combo points and poison uptime?

sleek sparrow
#

What are the odds of anything getting nerfed in pve

shy dust
#

50/50

#

Either it gets nerfed or not

#

I wouldn’t think that nerfing assassination is in blizzards mind though

balmy condor
#

the margin was too small

vestal wren
#

it seems fine to use it with sepsis

balmy condor
#

yes

#

it is indeed fine

soft shale
#

it does fine damage for 40 energy anyway right

balmy condor
#

50*

ebon bramble
sleek sparrow
#

It was in response to the flag nerf question lol

vestal wren
#

assassination is the #1 melee dps rn if i do remember the wcl statistic right

low girder
#

it's also #1 on boss dmg

vestal wren
#

that does not rly mean it will get a nerf

low girder
#

doubtful, doesn't seem to be overly out of line, and it pays for it in aoe

stark heart
brittle pawn
#

still pretty underplayed, too

ebon bramble
brittle pawn
#

pretty identical to feral

low girder
#

i did say just that right after

#

but the question was we weren't good at anything

#

that is false 😛

strange python
#

whats a good stat distribution for m+/cleave ? obvi i know sim ur self and all that but just curious if people have some distributions that feel good to them

brittle pawn
#

there is no answer anyone will give that won't be useless to you

strange python
#

i mean thats just not true but ok i wont bother asking

balmy condor
#

it's pretty true

gentle gyro
#

i mean what do you expect

strange python
#

i wasnt asking for someone to tell me exactly what stats to use. was just asking what had felt good to play with purely subjective from others opinions

vestal wren
#

everything not mastery

balmy condor
#

well crit gives you cp, so that feels pretty good

gentle gyro
#

mastery becomes less bad, crit gives you more cp to spend

fathom lynx
gentle gyro
#

but generally, just stick to haste crit

strange python
#

word thanks guys thats all i was wondering lol just wanted to hear some peoples opinions as this is my alt and im not quite as comfortable with the specifics of it

ebon bramble
#

is mastery really that bad for us in single target?

#

right now i prefer stascking haste and crit to make the spec flow smoother but always wondered mathematically how bad mastery is lol

nimble tartan
#

dude nonbloodlust deeper strat opener is fuckin brutally slow my GOD

fathom lynx
#

Yeah man - alt-tabbing is part of my opener with DS 🙃

iron orchid
#

When you can't restealth in DOS ...

balmy condor
proven talon
#

with ma opener, are we only doing one mut into envenom for the MA window then going to 6 afterwards?

brittle pawn
#

imagine playing sin this week though

iron orchid
#

I just wanna shoot myself but I still keep playing

brittle pawn
#

i just cry in outlaw as i continue to get no dagger

balmy condor

#

why the first mut over ambush

balmy condor

!mut

proven talon
#

the only reason i could think of was poison application

#

seems reasonable anyway

low girder
#

imagine doing keys this week*

ebon bramble
#

its not thaaaaaat bad

#

next season i hope blizzard adds in another anti melee affix

#

standing within 15 yards of an ally causes you to take additional damage!

brittle pawn
#

auto attacking disarms you FeelsAffMan

#

melee quaking

knotty sparrow
#

When are you guys popping flag+vendetta on sludgefist??

balmy condor
#

pull, pillar 2, and 4

knotty sparrow
#

Ty

#

Crimson tempest for council/sun king/huntsman?

sleek sparrow
#

Melee quaking exists for DHs GWsetmyxPeepoCry

knotty sparrow
#

Or poison bomb for the whole raid?

balmy condor
#

yep

#

can also look it up here

knotty sparrow
#

Ty

stoic needle
#

Just scales a lot worse

ebon bramble
#

hmm

#

that kind of sucks lol

#

that means we wont scale as well! cause vers isnt last stat

stoic needle
#

You're telling me verysadge

ebon bramble
#

gasp!

balmy condor
ebon bramble
#

wont someone think of the scaling?!

balmy condor
#

gonna get the belt ffs

ebon bramble

🤣

its ok

cant be worse than WW monks

MM too

balmy condor

yeah imagine getting bugs fixed

brittle pawn

literally unplayable

rapid mirage
#

Man, my group wont let me play Sin this week cause Subcreation says that it's not S teir ._.

brittle pawn
#

your group might be r words

rapid mirage
#

Agreeedd

ebon bramble
#

lol

#

i do wonder tho

#

numerically, how far behind ass is from law

brittle pawn
#

8

ebon bramble
#

8k? dang

stoic needle
#

You can sim that pepescience

balmy condor
#

if only someone had pins

#

that shows numbers

#

in a multitude of situations

ebon bramble
#

guess being ass is against the law

royal lantern
#

what are pins

#

can you ping them like green names?

balmy condor
#

pins are the plastic coated wooden monoliths at the end of a bowling lane

kind talon
#

@pins

#

Didn’t work

brittle pawn
#

pins are like bigfoot

#

everyone talks about them, nobody's ever seen them

that command actually does something

how is that not a command

LMAO

i didnt show a name

you guys running sharpening stones or oils?

just do

Ur trolling that guy man

ebon bramble

@balmy condor for pins

balmy condor
prisma monolithBOT
#

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

balmy condor
#

but I use stones

royal lantern
balmy condor
#

cause consistency

royal lantern
#

i use 1 oil 1 stone

kind talon
#

He’s gonna spend rest of today looking for the mention bro @royal lantern

royal lantern
#

sims best for me

hidden crypt
icy crater
#

bruh

#

I get slightly tilted when everything is a "minor difference"

balmy condor
#

wait until you hear about m+ builds

brittle pawn
#

or openers

icy crater
#

I heard you on stream

#

i cba

balmy condor
icy crater
#

hey what talents should I pick for m+ assa?

#

yes.

kind talon
#

Yes

royal lantern
#

maybe

balmy condor
#

hey what legendary for m+

#

pick one of these 4

#

hm okay, what conduits?

kind talon
#

Suphoz

balmy condor
#

pick 1-2 of these 4 conduits

kind talon
#

Suphoz’s proclamation is bis

balmy condor
#

also the soulbind doesn't matter either

kind talon
#

Sephuz oops lol

balmy condor
#

I bet sephuz would be real mad if he weren't busy with hearthstone

kind talon
#

Truuueee

royal lantern
#

whast class should i play

#

or does that not matter?

icy crater
#

Why do my sims suck? Well you picked about 10 things that are .5-1% worse than the optimal one so you're like 10% lower than you should be

#

ohhhh

balmy condor
#

that's the best imo

#

people link a sim

#

and it's like 500 lower than it should be

#

because there's like 6-7 things wrong

sleek sparrow
#

Why sim if you're not going to sim all the options :concerned-1:

balmy condor
#

and then they hit you with the "well I thought it was close"

royal lantern
#

isnt the base setting of sims good in most cases

#

or do you mean talents/legendarys?

icy crater
#

At least they didn't link a sim in #outlaw after testing and forgot to turn permanent rtb buffs off

#

Who would do that...

#

Wondering wtf is wrong

balmy condor
#

hmmmmmmm

sleek sparrow
#

Oh so fun story, I went back to my first ever wow server and was scoping out oribos, looked at the prog and saw the farthest progged guiled was 2/10m, immediately saw a rogue with norganons pants crafted in town

#

Quickly logged out of server and haven't returned

balmy condor
#

every now and then I get a whisper while I sit in oribos asking if I'm "that whispyr"

#

those are always funny

I'm just shocked that you can craft norganons as a melee

#

I've started replying with "idk who whispyr is"

low girder
sleek sparrow
#

Like why would the game let you do this

buoyant schooner
#

quick question, what stats should I put on doom gloves?

balmy condor
#

and then they get really confused

buoyant schooner
#

ty!

low girder
#

sad days

sleek sparrow
#

I blame blizzard for enabling players to be this bad

low girder
#

i broke 6700 as sin

#

lol

#

casual 500 dps gain swapping specs

balmy condor
#

you think 500 dps by swapping specs is a lot

#

try swapping from resto druid to boomy

icy crater
#

good 1

low girder
#

can healers even sim

#

i actually forget

#

lol

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

if they're implemented

low girder
#

like dmg

balmy condor
#

sure

#

why not

low girder
#

yeah idk that any are

icy crater
#

yea im actually investing like 10 hrs a day into TCing new APL for holy priest

#

so uh

#

I'll get that pushed soon

solid chasm
#

whispyr i have question

balmy condor
#

I probably have an answer

stoic needle
#

Norgannons pepehmm

solid chasm
#

i just got a sin WA, but it also shows up with a sub wa when im in sub spec

#

and i dont want it to bc i have a dif one i use

#

how do fix

balmy condor
brittle pawn
#

swapping my doomblade from haste/vers to haste/crit is +16 dps aniblobsweat

low girder
#

yeah tanks i knew

sleek sparrow
#

I didn't even know it was possible

balmy condor
#

and see if that breaks it

#

if you start getting jank shit double overlapping you're gonna have to go through and delete the ones that are sub

solid chasm
#

rofl i just did something and now its displaying rtb buffs

#

i broke it

balmy condor
#

yeah gonna have to go through it and delete the stuff you don't want

solid chasm
#

oh ok that fixed it

#

ty

icy crater
#

!bis

balmy condor
icy crater
#

how do i know what gear is best if my stat weights say i need haste

#

if theres no bis

balmy condor
#

indeed an unsolvable problem

civic trellis
#

Is there any difference between garrote -> mutliate at opener

#

and mut -> garrote?

brittle pawn
#

depends

balmy condor
#

an extra garrote tick I guess?

royal lantern
civic trellis
#

sims say there is not but higher garrote uptime should mean more energy

brittle pawn
#

on if you put your lettuce and tomato on the top or bottom of your sandwich

royal lantern
#

cant happen now anymore cus my ingame name is not my discord name :c

balmy condor
#

of course there's not going to be a difference

civic trellis
#

Ah 😄

#

Right

#

i usually forgot sims do lot of iterations

balmy condor
#

I mean

#

even with 1 iteration

#

it won't matter

civic trellis
#

well its 8 energy aswell

#

well it can be

balmy condor
#

exactly

low girder
#

yes you might maybe get 8 more energy over a 5m fight

balmy condor
#

8 energy is, for sake of argument, a 5th of a mutilate

stoic needle
#

Poggers

low girder
#

ie nothing

stoic needle
#

Huge gains

balmy condor
#

that's like what

#

200 damage?

civic trellis
#

😄

balmy condor
#

over a course of 5min?

civic trellis
#

almost 1 dps

#

!!

stoic needle
#

Giga gainz

civic trellis
#

0.66 dps

balmy condor
#

two whole thirds

#

of a dps

#

POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

stoic needle
#

Now this is min maxing

civic trellis
#

in sludge it would be 1.3

balmy condor
#

it would actually be 0.66 on sludge as well

stoic needle
#

!

balmy condor
#

cause it doesn't change how you play pillars

civic trellis
#

no because that energy proc you use it at pilars

balmy condor
#

well

#

not really

#

but sure

civic trellis
#

XD

#

And there is no reason to start with ambush right

#

from stealth

#

Saw some logs do it but idk, it doesnt make sense for me

balmy condor
#

yeah logs are dumb dumbs

low girder
#

never forget the top sin rogue pre-9.0.5 was doing garr garr mut openers with subterfuge

#

on single target

balmy condor
#

mega pog

dawn ivy
#

i mean there were also only psychopaths still playing sin pre 9.0.5

frail fossil
#

or people that liked the spec yep

vestal wren
#

people always forget that doing some mistakes is fine and won't rly change your parse

onyx wind
#

since you have a higher chance of proccing with mut

#

which is why the sims favour mut on first global

vestal wren
#

we had at times found better rotations but not one of the top logs did apply/use those

onyx wind
#

outside of blindside ofc

#

does anyone know if eternal skirmish or stats is better enchant?

Well sometimes i notice a noticiable dps loss if i just smash env on cd

vestal wren
#

10% is noticable tho^^

civic trellis
#

like 100ish dps

#

i guess i will handle it in automode once i get used to sin

steady owl
#

does dashing scoundrel work on aeo? If i evenom the targeted mob and fok, will my poisons on the other mobs i hit have their crit increased even though theyre not my current target?

balmy condor
#

the effect from dashing is applied to the envenom buff

raven flower
#

mut spec really taking off might have to switch from outlaw

#

what do i need to attain before i switch

steady owl
#

balmy condor
#

stoic needle
#

i tried testing it and could only get 1 proc from a mut

ruby birch
#

wym not using garrote anymore

#

u forgot ass

ruby birch

#

but I do appreciate the elders who say Mut

#

misty holly
#

garrote doesn't apply poison

fathom lynx
balmy condor
#

of course we use garrote

raven flower
balmy condor
#

who's saying to not use garrote

frail fossil
ruby birch
#

@misty holly do you mean not use garrote from stealth?

raven flower
#

looking at warcraft logs got me like

ruby birch
#

if so im pretty sure that's been going on like ever since 9.0.5 dropped

#

maybe even before

balmy condor
#

we haven't used subterfuge in single target all expansion

low girder
#

^

#

we haven't used garrote as the first global if we use MA forever

lavish pulsar
#

hey just got here. if we're tossing out garrote can we toss out mutilate too? i'd like to dps with throwing dagger or whatever our ranged ability is called

ruby birch
#

even with zoldyck people didnt

#

and doomblade

i meant the talent

are we popping Flag on Cd or waiting for Vendetta ?

brittle pawn
#

!flag

#

hm

dawn ivy
#

depending on the fight youre in you need to look at how many flag casts you can possibly fit in and make sure you get that many

brittle pawn
#

use with vendetta on short fights where you won't lose a cast of it if you hold

stoic needle
#

its usually better to just use it on cd and not risk fucking it up and losing a cast

dawn ivy

its only like a .5% dps boost to do it perfectly anyway

So we don’t garrote anymore?

balmy condor

Wat

balmy condor
#

why does that continue to be a question

sleek sparrow
loud light
#

it's phrased like they were told this and wanted confirmation

#

but who would do such a thing

stoic needle
#

garotte is a dps loss

#

envenom only build

Sounds very unmasterful of you

hi guys im feeling kinda positive today

anyone wanna be condescending towards me?

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

vestal coyote
#

How much haste do I need to swap to deeper strat over vigor for ST or is it close enough at low haste to just swap? Can sim but looking for just a general idea

onyx wind
#

if ur venthyr u can swap whenever

#

it was better for me at like 12%, but didnt sim earlier

balmy condor
#

non venthyr needs like 20ish from what I've seen

rustic whale
#

say we if you have %20 haste, is it better to go deeper?

balmy condor
#

that's literally what we're talking about

rustic whale
#

or just sim?

vestal coyote
#

Gotcha, will swap then. Thank you!

balmy condor
#

sim is always it

rustic whale
#

so i have another question if you guys can tell me before sim.

#

226 crit+versa or 220 crit+haste

onyx wind
#

!stats

prisma monolithBOT
#

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

onyx wind
#

XD

rustic whale
#

i have 20 haste and 28 crit

onyx wind
#

versa bro XD

balmy condor
rustic whale
#

due to agility right?

balmy condor
#

and just having more stats as well

rustic whale
#

aight but i wonder one thing

#

why versa weighted over ?

vestal coyote
#

Wait, vers over crit now for ST?

rustic whale
#

i mean it was like crit+haste

onyx wind
#

yes crit haste is better

rustic whale
#

now why is it crit+versa?

stoic needle
#

Do you know what >= means

rustic whale
#

no sry i m new here

balmy condor
#

the = implies that they're very similar

compact pumice
#

= means “Greater than or equal to”

balmy condor
#

and so we return to back to "sim yourself"

onyx wind
#

if ur venthyr and doomblade, crit is generally ur best stat

#

but i guess the sims fir !stats are done more generally

compact pumice
#

Stay weights always depends on your current stats, so you should always sim yourself

balmy condor
#

that is generally just a lie

#

but go off king

rustic whale
#

i m NF niya and doomblade

#

yeah will do sim

#

has anyone stacked %25 base crit + mA talent + korayn to use spear on NW?

sour thunder
#

How does assasin buff feel? Is it enough?

onyx wind
#

so many haste/vers crafted legendaries

#

:(

balmy condor
#

and what's wrong with that

onyx wind
#

its so sad

rustic whale
#

i crafted my doomblade as crit haste

onyx wind
#

me too

balmy condor
#

but like

#

why is it sad

stoic needle
onyx wind
#

so much wasted potential man :/

rustic whale
#

legendary not working but what about Master Assasin talent? talent also working same?

onyx wind
stoic needle
#

Having haste vers legendary just means that a peice of crit haste hear will sim better for you eventually then for someone who crafted crit haste

stoic needle
onyx wind
#

aight nice

balmy condor
#

I don't think that "potential" means what you think it means

stoic needle
#

It's never worked on any of the items

balmy condor
#

:/

rustic whale
#

sry i did not play in BFA

#

i was CE raider on legion exp

stoic needle
#

The talent never worked, and the legendary doesn't work anymore

low girder
#

the talent has always (afaik) been whitelisted, the leggo got changed to be in the patch

onyx wind
#

nice to know

balmy condor
#

yeh

#

doesn't stop jpc from thinking the talent works apparently

#

but clowns gonna clown

onyx wind
#

is fire mage still allowed to crit the orb tho

rustic whale
#

i believe blizz will touch specs once mdi ends

#

like april 25

onyx wind
#

yea for general tuning and targetcap stuff probably

stoic needle
onyx wind
#

but they fixed rogue leggo in the midst

low girder
#

i don't see target caps being messed with until at least 9.1

rustic whale
#

i m feeling myself like homeless when a mage pulls 60+k 😄

stoic needle
#

May fire mage die a horrible death

onyx wind
#

why u hating outside the club

#

u cant even get in

#

just become a fire mage

rustic whale
#

i only play as rogue or i dont play wow

fallen current
#

Was in a 15 PF and watched a fire mage nuke all the slimes at once. Did like 200k dps. I was sad I had the tiny target cap

rustic whale
#

yeah we all do same

#

just stand there and watch

#

cc bot or int bot

#

but boss dmg is good tho 😄

onyx wind
#

just become the mage 😎

#

u can pull those numbers in greens

indigo mulch
#

Mages are just extremly overtuned for m+ atm :S

rustic whale
#

dw they will eat nerfbat so hard

fallen current
#

Doubt it.

onyx wind
#

dont think so

indigo mulch
#

The no-cap on flamepatch is just stupid.

#

Like legit stupid.

onyx wind
#

u are literally tailoring the dungeon to make fire mage as strong as possible

fallen current
#

Only thing I wish was that drums were better than what they are now.

stoic needle
onyx wind
#

so obviously its gonna look broken

sour thunder
#

How is assass dps after 905?

onyx wind
#

too good

stoic needle
#

Good

indigo mulch
#

They are the only class you could do that with

#

What other class can you do that with? D:

fierce tulip
#

Can u wear two of the same dagger?

stoic needle
#

Yes

rustic whale
#

i believe assa will shine once we have 2nd lego and even more once we have 3rd lego

sour thunder
#

So that new passive was enough to fix it all?

fallen current
#

Yes as long as it doesn’t say unique-equipped

rustic whale
#

this exp will make us use 3 legos

stoic needle
#

No the 20% aura buff mostly

#

And the legendary buffs

onyx wind
#

^

#

AND BUGFIXES AND CTTC

#

Classic blizzard

rustic whale
#

altho CTTC limits SnD on 46secs

onyx wind
#

buff class -> fix bugs -> class too strong -> nerf class

rustic whale
#

i would like to see like outlaw 2mins SND

fallen current
#

It’s not hard

#

Grand melee allows it

#

I’ve had a 5min SND. Thanks shitty rolls

indigo mulch
#

I mean they have a chance of dropping it ;s sin rogues will never ever drop SnD unless they have to be away from the boss 😒

rustic whale
#

still i doubt if it is intented or bug

#

capping on 46sec

low girder
rustic whale
#

yeh but i would love to see it uncapped lol

low girder
#

kinda stopped paying attention since CTTC kekW

#

doesn't even drop in shriek intermission

rustic whale
#

i suggested CTTC like many rogues before on forums

onyx wind
#

but what if you dont cast envenom within 20 seconds bro?

#

its gonna drop?

balmy condor
#

forums monkaChrist

rustic whale
#

but i also suggested to RS to Assasin spec

onyx wind
#

u guys on forums saved us

rustic whale
#

RS would be make us yummy

onyx wind
#

i thank u with all my heart

#

that i never have to apply SnD again

rustic whale
#

no no it was really needed

#

because rotation was evolving around rupture and snd

#

envenoms were rare

onyx wind
#

yes the spec was unplayable for me until cttc

#

tried so hard to enjoy it

strange python
#

hello guys, what trinket would you say is better UQD or shriekwing?

rustic whale
#

what i find is out talents are out of date

#

and poison bomb is low

onyx wind
rustic whale
#

i mean they are still from 2016 lol

onyx wind
#

yea talents are a bit scuffed

strange python
stoic needle
#

If we got a talent rework on top of the rest of the chances we would be so sick

dawn ivy
#

id like to see alacrity get removed and something that effects TB

#

maybe TB gives you a shitload of energy regen inside the window

icy crater
#

Honestly the only row that kinda needs rework is the last one tbh

#

maybe a small bit of change on the first row

rustic whale
#

actually i dont like TB baked into Shiv

#

they should seperate them

dawn ivy
#

100%

#

but i doubt they will ever split them

rustic whale
#

or making something us passively remove enrage effects atleast in PvE

stoic needle
#

Alacrity + CT baseline

#

New talents to replace them in their tiers

#

PB buff

#

Ezclap

dawn ivy
#

alazrity baseline would be too strong

rustic whale
#

PB if that thing is gonna stay, it needs to deal like %500 more damage

stoic needle
#

No it wouldn't

rustic whale
#

or better chance for proc

low girder
#

the non-alacrity talents just need to not be dogshit

icy crater
#

I know I said a few days ago I don't like exang

stoic needle
#

That's asking for a lot mata

icy crater
#

But now I kinda wish it was the go to

low girder
#

just in that row

icy crater
#

Exang playstyle with a smooth as fuck maintain rotation

#

would be so pog

low girder
#

exsang is awful without any borrowed power affecting it

dawn ivy
#

venom rush would be good if they basically doubled it

#

back when it was only 5 it was almost funny

stoic needle
#

It'd be easier to just make alacrity baseline and put some okay talent in there instead

#

Than to rework both exsang and venom rush to be good

#

Maybe add double dose onto venom rush

rustic whale
#

my thought is why don't they make Assasin spec deals like tripple amount of dps for ST only?

stoic needle
#

So it's 8 energy+ the poison extra dmg proc

rustic whale
#

it was sad to see no rogues in CN raid

low girder
#

why would you triple the dps of one of the highest ST specs in the game

stoic needle
#

System shock the PvP talent

low girder
#

it's been megabuffed

stoic needle
#

Should be an actual talent

dawn ivy
#

nah yeah triple sins damage

lament mica
#

triple amount of dps

icy crater
#

I think you'd assume tuning

rustic whale
#

😄

icy crater
#

along with talent changes

lament mica
rustic whale
#

because we do single target dmg while others busy with aoe

#

in the end we do the same dps 😛

#

yes i m a bad boi 😄

stoic needle
#

Sin doing 18k dps PepeHappy

icy crater
#

And the reason why he's saying alacrity baseline

#

is because its a fucking boring passive

#

but it makes the rotation so much more enjoyable

#

and give us a nother button that does something

rustic whale
#

no no we need blindside as passive tbh

lament mica
#

or just don't worry about boomies padding and realize ur ST pumping 6k is much more valuable than the boomy padding for 10k in raids

icy crater
#

It's not buff assass cuz its weak

manic igloo
#

im stuck on wheter to make dashing, doomblade or zoldyck for purely m+...i hate choices like this lol

low girder
#

don't make dashing for m+

stoic needle
#

Dashing in m+ pepechortle

rustic whale
#

zoldyck wont works on high key i would say. Mages and boomies are raping

manic igloo
#

im 100% noob....i liked the idea of poison stuffs

icy crater
#

is it 3 upgrades from 210->220 or 2

lament mica
#

3

stoic needle
#

Because the mobs live longer

rustic whale
#

i did with zoldyck but they last longer like 2sec more 😄

#

may be for 20+?

stoic needle
icy crater
#

I disagree

slow marsh
#

I mean if you're getting carried by a mage and boomie then it doesn't matter what you're playing

stoic needle
#

You start feeling it at 14+ tbh

icy crater
#

I only kind of agree with alacrity because it's haste and it makes the spec feel better to play

slow marsh
#

But if you are playing together then it's extremely good because your mage and boomie don't have to carry every pack

icy crater
#

if it was a passive dot or something I wouldn't agree

stoic needle
#

I just feel like it's lame when the best choice talent makes you do less

#

Like buttons to press wise

#

The other talents are more effort for less gain

rustic whale
rustic whale
#

i m 219 ilvl btw

stoic needle
#

That's pretty good

rustic whale
#

i agree if targets live longer we do more dmg

#

that was where their cds are off and i shine

manic igloo
#

this is the thing here no one seems to agree on what to make lol

manic igloo
#

i just made Zoldyck and ill die on that sword

low girder
#

for M+ zoldyck and MA are your best bets

stoic needle
#

You made a good choice don't worry

low girder
#

doomblade is also pretty good

#

on tyrannical

rustic whale
#

i dont suggest using MA on spiteful

#

it is nearly impossible to enter stealth

rustic whale
subtle tundra
#

do i join a +20 and play assa? kekw

icy crater
#

im 224

rustic whale
#

oh

manic igloo
#

why not @subtle tundra assert dominance

subtle tundra
#

havent done any assa keys this week cause of spiteful

rustic whale
#

did u go as eloborate + CT? @icy crater

stoic needle
#

Yeah I've been playing outlaw this week

#

But playing outlaw with a 207 MH is almost inting

#

Good lord

gusty mirage
#

spiteful can literally suck a bag of dicks

rustic whale
#

dude so many affix for anti-melee 😄

#

storming can also go blast

shy dust
rustic whale
#

he said targets live longer

#

better for execute dmg %30

shy dust
#

which also means

#

the amount of time spent outside

#

of execute is increased

rustic whale
#

yeah i said that the same reason but i m not so good to make comments for keys higher than 15+

shy dust
#

its not the best arguement for zoldyck

#

to say higher key mobs live longer

#

makes it more value

#

when that also in a way makes zoldyck worse

neon stone
shy dust
#

its not like mobs living longer just instantly means they all will stay longer at 30%

subtle tundra
#

well

neon stone
#

i might jump to necrolord just for the memes

shy dust
#

mobs being in 30% longer

#

also makes your mage even stronger

#

which means it could lower your damage

#

so

#

bad arguement imo

subtle tundra
#

eh depends how you see it

rustic whale
#

i m with your arguement Rae but i don't know what to say for their suggestions

shy dust
#

i dont think it depends on how you see it

#

a blanket statement

#

for zolydkc gets better with high keys because they live longer

#

just doesnt hold up

#

unless you can somehow quantify that mobs would live longer on average and that the amount of time they spent under 30% was higher than total time spent on them

rustic whale
#

in my opinion Dashing would do more dps but i never had a chance to test it myself

strange python
#

I hate myself for not spamming tor every week man

#

Lesson learned

#

Wanna change my MA and Celerity to ring

#

And get the new BiS leggo on my mage

#

😦

stoic needle
#

More time in the execute phase = more time that you're doing 30% extra damage on your bleeds and poisons = more dps overall, no? Say a mob in a 10 key goes 100%-0% in 20 seconds because of a mage's combust. but in an 18 it takes 45. In the 10 key scenario it's much less time for your dots to tick doing 30% more damage than in the 18 key scenario

shy dust
#

doesnt that also apply vice versa

#

more time in 100-30

#

the actual % time in execute

#

would be roughly the same

strange python
#

Do our bleeds snapshot?

rustic whale
#

what i can say is , don't push yourself in M+ as assasin spec. Just do runs with 10+ and may be 12-14+. If you want to dedicate yourself to M+ just play Outlaw

strange python
#

On huntsman do you just dot both the mobs back and forth?

shy dust
#

yes you bleed both bosses on huntsman

balmy condor
strange python

i am but

ep fucking sucks dick rn

with 0 energy in the entire game to use

dEePeRsTrAtEgEm

strange python
balmy condor
#

it doesn't snapshot agi

rustic whale
#

why am i wrong can you enlighten me please? @subtle tundra

balmy condor
#

NS/subt is only the extra damage

stoic needle
# shy dust the actual % time in execute

Proportionally it's the same but in seconds it's longer, meaning you get to do increased damage for longer which results in higher dps? Like how sin rogues catch up to other classes on p3 of denathrius

balmy condor
#

exsang snapshots haste

strange python
#

Aw ok

#

Ah so it ticks faster with haste buffs?

shy dust
strange python
#

But stays that way
