Does Sin funnel? Guildies are asking and I didn't know

#

Haven't played enough to know

solid shale
#

that was something sub used to have

#

shuriken combo

#

to be clear, no sin doesnt funnel

mossy sable
#

Cool

fallow otter
#

You can funnel a bit like huntsman you can keep 2 targets with bleeds etc for more energy to pump into main target but it's no sub/zul

mossy sable
#

We where talking about why Sin climbs so high on the overall damage parses and such the higher parse you go

#

At 50% heroic it's top

fallow otter
#

Calling it funnelling is a bit of a reach

solid shale
#

thats not a funnel that's just dotting 2 targets

#

yeah

safe barn
#

guys

grizzled orbit
#

Is the opener on Raven up-to-date?

mossy sable
#

I was trying to explain why I wanna learn Sin even though I am still maining and improving on Outlaw and it ended up going to "Wtf Sin is doing pretty fucking good rn"

safe barn
fallow otter
mossy sable
#

Right we stck to 90-95th

#

It was more of why in lower % and in mythic is it doing a lot better

#

Or equal to Outlaw

fallow otter
#

But essentially it's because sin is hard to play so badly that you do no dmg

mossy sable
#

I beg to differ

#

XD

odd hazel
mossy sable
#

I manage 3-4k

odd hazel
#

sin just does a lot of damage now

#

it cant AoE as well but

#

it can 2-3 target really well

#

and thats a LOT of nathria

fallow otter
#

It's good at everything it used to be good at

#

And add execute to the list

odd hazel
#

tbh i've bee ndebating switching to sin. been messing around with it and its fun.

solid shale
#

sin big stonks rn

odd hazel
#

but to say something tunnels is weird

#

because of damage being high

#

thats player not class

solid shale
#

funnel

#

which is what shuriken combo used to do

#

thats what its called when u aoe to deal more st damage

odd hazel
#

oh---- saying that for abusing 2-3 targets is odd.

solid shale
#

he was just askin

exotic rose
#

Hey guys, is it a prio target ST increase to bleed other targets?

unreal laurel
#

Yes because you have more energy regen

slow marsh
#

You dont want to have to keep up more than 2-3 bleeds but yeah things like council it's good to put up one garrote on another target

violet wasp
#

Guys, haste loses value after what percentage? because simulating it gives me that I have the correct stats but looking at wowlogs I see that most people have 300 less haste than me and at least 200 of crit. and vers. more than me and I can not parse above 60 doing everything right in it boss.

slow marsh
#

or sire you can garrote remornia to get more energy

#

etc

strange python
#

anyone that have plater know how to filter out waiters on council?

slow marsh
slow marsh
#

You could also try to play more risky. Playing safe keeps you alive but you want to try and push your limits when possible

shy dust
violet wasp
#

Yes im ventir w 27%haste

shy dust
#

You’d maintain bleeds on both targets

#

Due to them sharing health

solid shale
#

weird

slow marsh
#

Big dam

solid shale
#

i was gonna say after i switched from nf to venthyr sim told me to get rid of some haste

violet wasp
#

Im doing all the same that people w high parses and i cant parse more tan green or blue

slow marsh
#

Are you using doomblade or zold

violet wasp
#

doomblade

shy dust
#

Also your parses are not be all end all

#

A lot goes into parsing

#

That is out of your control

solid shale
#

when in doubt post logs

slow marsh
#

yeepp

dapper dock
#

how did sin go from being a dud a few months ago to being top?

shy dust
#

Lots of buffs

solid shale
#

like a 12% buff lol

balmy condor
shy dust
#

Changes that were basically buffed

#

Being buffed a lot rapidly

violet wasp
dapper dock
#

sim urself

violet wasp
#

this is the problem, the equip sims dont change me nothing onle the stats sims show me i need more crit and vers but
I do not know if that sims is more reliable

balmy condor
#

you parsed an 88

dapper dock
#

u are parsing good

#

whats wrong?

violet wasp
#

I am parsing much less than people of my own ilvl for my taste and comparing it with them. U think im good boys?

gusty mirage
#

Well that’s a purely subjective thing

solid shale
#

dont look at ilvl parse

balmy condor
gusty mirage
#

Idk do you think you’re good?

balmy condor
#

guys im parsing 88 woe is me

solid shale
#

ilvl parse is usually a smaller sample size

gusty mirage
#

I parsed a 97 on shriek I still think I’m trash my guy lol

dapper dock
#

well u started off saying u only parse blue or green. but looking at ur parses ur all purple or higher. i think maybe ur color blind or dont know how to read tthem

low girder
balmy condor
#

I wasn't gonna mention it

dapper dock
#

wait he posted someone elses parses?

shy dust
#

That’s @arctic walrus

#

Parse you dunces

#

He was using it for comparison

stoic needle
gusty mirage
#

Hey it’s 1:30am

#

I’m allowed to be stupid

solid shale
#

tf

balmy condor
#

honestly

solid shale
#

did that guy just troll us all

balmy condor
#

I don't know what his point was

gusty mirage
#

Probably

dapper dock
#

lol

stoic needle
#

@violet wasp post some of your logs

gusty mirage
#

I got got SucksMan

shy dust
#

Maybe he forgot

solid shale
#

idk who vel is so

shy dust
#

To post his own logs

slow marsh
#

he said he parses 60s and posted vel's logs as an example that he uses to compare himself to

shy dust
#

Vel is a slammer rogue

gusty mirage
#

Oh

shy dust
#

Who ascended past being helpful to become a community figure

violet wasp
gusty mirage
#

Post your own logs dude

dapper dock
#

LOL

shy dust
#

You’re not doing everything right

#

Also

#

Don’t be a dick and laugh.

dapper dock
#

i didnt laugh at his logs

shy dust
dapper dock
#

jesus

#

i laughed at what oxi said

shy dust
#

But @balmy condor is awake

#

And can probably check your log and see what you’re doing wrong

solid shale
#

whispyr is alway awake

gusty mirage
#

I attempted to do the timeline thing on my phone. And wcl is kinda shit on mobile ngl

balmy condor
#

me also play valorant

#

idk

gusty mirage
#

Carry me out of gold Whispyr

balmy condor
#

work on your uptime

#

don't hold shiv

#

uh

#

push your buttons harder

stoic needle
#

your garotte and rupture uptime could use some work. you should shoot for 95+

#

don't open with ambush

#

you fok'd on single target on hungering(?)

#

you're holding shiv too long

arctic walrus
#

yo what the fuck

solid shale
#

LOL

stoic needle
arctic walrus
#

hello??

shy dust
#

He used you as an example of a pumper

arctic walrus
#

did he tho

stoic needle
#

you're also holding vendetta too long and losing uses

balmy condor
#

yes

#

he did

arctic walrus
#

who

stoic needle
#

also your raid doesn't have particularly high dps which will affect your parse as well

balmy condor
gusty mirage
#

Yeah your kill times are kinda long which hurts your ability to parse well. If your guild is progressing through the content, parses don’t really matter

stoic needle
#

you want to do mut > snd > mut > gar > flag + vendetta > rupture in your opener

violet wasp
arctic walrus
#

oh I actually got rank 1 for ilvl okay that makes more sense

slow marsh
#

Always open mutilate unless you are using subterfuge

#

only ambush during blindside procs

stoic needle
#

you shouldn't be FOK on inerva. you only fok at 4+ targets

slow marsh
#

I think you are better off just reading through one of the guides and you'll be fine

fleet anchor
#

@balmy condor I only got a 96% on Shriekwing tonight could you look at my logs and tell me I don't have to swap to Venthyr to get a 99% without externals? feelscryman

#

Mushroom man is gonna be disappoint with me

balmy condor
gusty mirage
balmy condor
#

I heard it does twice the damage of a mutilate

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.

fleet anchor
#

Can we somehow get more people to play Assassination on the later fights so it's easier to get a higher percentile parse on them?

violet wasp
low girder
gusty mirage
#

I’ll be here to pad your parses Koji no worries

fleet anchor
#

I got my last Assassination kill in today so I'll have all my all-star points covered, even though some of them are bad

stoic needle
#

also you probably don't need to fully garotte+rupture the smaller adds on inerva, usually just a garotte is fine. you can fully dot the large ones though

balmy condor
#

koji only parses a 97

fleet anchor
#

Still better than 0s 😄

balmy condor
#

must be trash

gusty mirage
balmy condor
#

I bet he doesn't know what he's doing

fleet anchor
#

I mean ngl

#

I got a 233 weapon today

gusty mirage
#

Pog

fleet anchor
#

And it was basically a free jump from 91 to 96 on Shriek just from that 200 DPS

#

Which is crazy

#

But true

stoic needle
fleet anchor
#

It's kinda oddly compressed atm in the 90s

gusty mirage
#

PIs seem to be the biggest variance there

fleet anchor
#

200 more DPS from Venthyr is 99

stoic needle
#

@violet wasp keep in mind that you are pretty undergeared, in a raid with low dps. you aren't playing perfectly, but there are other factors in play as well

fleet anchor
#

lol

north basin
#

If i have relatively low living time adds on encounter/m+ can i apply 2-3 cp rupture on them and see benefit?

dull cloak
#

venthyr sims 100 dps more for me ;/

gusty mirage
#

Just come to the dark side already Koji

fleet anchor
#

I probably will do it this week

stone herald
#

Scenario: I've just used Envenom, my buff is rolling. I Mut twice to 6 combo points (DS). Do I immediately Envenom refreshing the buff ASAP, or should I be pooling energy until I cap/buff almost runs out?

violet wasp
north basin
#

Difference between 2cp rupture and 5 cp only in duration?

slow marsh
stoic needle
dull cloak
#

= more ST on boss

fleet anchor
# balmy condor koji only parses a 97

Can you look at my 76% on HD because I haven't done that fight since Jan 5th and bungled the timing of everything possible with my 2nd Vendetta? 😢

stoic needle
stone herald
#

Gotcha

outer lodge
#

Best way to sim m+ aoe dmg for Assa? Is dungeon slice accurate for that or do i sim like 7 patchwerk bosses for 1 or 2mins?

fleet anchor
#

DS is fine

stoic needle
violet wasp
dull cloak
#

I also observe sepsis last damage tick may generate a cp if it crits

#

cuz i got a random cp out of nowhere

gusty mirage
#

I spent 2 hours running sims at work today, I blame whispyr for encouraging this behavior

slow marsh
#

tru

#

Petition to make WCL change the default ranking method for Council and Kael to Boss Damage

slow marsh
#

ill sign that

#

any day

outer lodge
#

i wish

cobalt flame
#

I was so happy playing sin again and then my raid leader was like "switch to sub for council pls, you were blasting attendants so hard" and I wanted to kms. Sadge

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

khira did the same thing for Nefarian in classic

#

there's precedent!

balmy condor
#

I mean honestly if there should be a fight that's boss damage

#

it should be council

stoic needle
#

📠

balmy condor
#

boomy pad on that is insane

cobalt flame
#

Petition for parses depending on snd uptime? snd

fleet anchor
#

Adds 👏 Don't 👏 Drop 👏 Loot

#

Kael just got blacklisted so it's kinda whatever

#

Council is a really odd fight though

cobalt flame
#

I mean kael is not in allstars but it still sucks to have green log there, because i am in the first channel group and adds die before i finish.

violet wasp
stoic needle
#

stat weights dont really matter

#

just use top gear

#

equip whatever sims best there

cobalt flame
#

Yep

violet wasp
#

Okay!! tysm guys!!

cobalt flame
#

All those stat weights are close anyways

#

But i noticed i have pretty good amount more dps per 1 stat than on uhdk for example

solid shale
#

haste/crit on leggo?

#

!guide

gloomy knoll
#

@balmy condor how do you use flag

#

do you save it for vend or just blast on cd

balmy condor
#

blast it

gloomy knoll
#

interesting

cobalt flame
#

Yeah i was like, nice i can blast flag on cd. Then i blasted 2 out of 3 flags on council into attendant immunity

#

Was not having a good time

sour citrus
#

is 16% haste too much already?

fleet anchor
#

Probably not. Source: Nyalotha

how much dps loss is between necro and venth (for ST raid fights)?

any suggestion?

Non-lashing sims to make it look less depressing

balmy condor

I have non-lashing included in that one

free of charge :)

check the pins koji 🙂

balmy condor
#

yeah koji

#

check the pins

fleet anchor
#

no I want a new one

balmy condor
#

😄

fleet anchor
#

with my gear

#

can you do that for me?

silent stratus
#

are the sims with t26 gear?

subtle tundra
#

yea, why arent you doing the sims with MY gear???

balmy condor
#

no it's with 120 ilvl gear from nyalotha

silent stratus
#

ahah!!!

balmy condor
#

azerite is 3x shrouded

silent stratus
#

😄

balmy condor
#

3x hod

fleet anchor
#

Actually I did that earlier and it made me cry

balmy condor
#

also it runs unbound force as a major essence

#

forgot to add that into the pin

silent stratus
#

ahahaha!!

subtle tundra
subtle tundra
#

cause i play more m+ and prog is finished

balmy condor
#

cause he's a flavor of the month chasin whore

subtle tundra
#

no point in min maxing stuff we've already done

silent stratus
#

do u play outlaw in m+?

subtle tundra
#

yes

#

although i plan on pushing my assa score a bit aswell

#

gonna get 2k on that

silent stratus
#

atm necro outlaw but I was wondering if it was worth switching assa for ST fights in mythic progress

#

I guess still worth it at 7.1k dps assa necro

willow isle
#

Necro's SBS is more interesting to use in my opinion.

subtle tundra
#

well it isnt about whats interesting, its about what does more dam

#

and for assa's role in the raid, venthyr is better

silent stratus
#

yep but necro is amazing in m+

fleet anchor
#

I mean I'll be honest, I think the difference is less pronounced in M+ unless you are pushing super high keys

#

You're a lot less likely to miss 2-3% damage on a mid-level M+ key than a Mythic raid boss imo

silent stratus
#

u mean the difference from necro to venthyr?

balmy condor
fleet anchor
#

That's far too realistic, it's somewhat disturbing

slow marsh
#

ofc

#

he gets it literally every day

balmy condor
#

I was born into it

slow marsh
#

out of everyone whisp should know

balmy condor
#

molded by it

slow marsh
#

honestly though

drifting cloud
#

hello whispyr why not ambush from stealth

balmy condor
slow marsh
#

I think that as 9.1 (hopefully /s) starts creeping closer

balmy condor
#

it's like ambush is a guaranteed mut crit

silent stratus
#

I guess ur referring going from necro to venthyr @fleet anchor ; aside the dps % diff, the gameplay changes a lot and I'd argue makes necro more fun to play in m+

balmy condor
#

in terms of damage

slow marsh
#

I'm interested to see what happens with necro

balmy condor
#

but without the mut

silent stratus
#

atleast for some kind of player who like a certain playstyle

balmy condor
#

so if the ambush crits

#

it's 4x the damage

#

of a mut

#

that does not crit

#

which seems good

#

anyone know?

drifting cloud
balmy condor
slow marsh
#

sin rogues are good for execute because they have blindside

#

which procs more during execute

balmy condor
#

excellent name

#

@fleet anchor how does it feel, having like calories, or whatever

silent stratus
fleet anchor
#

Things are always better with more calories

slow marsh
#

TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

#

Even water

balmy condor
#

tbh I walked into this chinese noodle restaurant near me

#

and they were very proud about no msg

#

so I turned around

#

and walked away

fleet anchor
#

Whispyr is thin watery blue milk, Koji red milk. There is a clear winner here.

balmy condor
fleet anchor
#

Also no MSG

#

smh

#

Trying to appeal to boomers who believe in MSG headaches

#

Sad

balmy condor
#

yeh honestly tho

fleet anchor
#

Don't worry, my mom went through the anti-MSG phase when I was younger. It made me quite sad. MSG is the best.

peeps, need an opinion. already simmed it 213 boots won over 216 overcharged anima. Do I go for getting my ilvl up with trinket or boots? current is 213 ilvl

#

@balmy condor how many pi's would it take with dashing / vigor / flag to get vendetta at a 1 min cd

balmy condor
#

infinite

#

because you don't have any vendetta cdr

#

with that

lofty shell
#

Priest nf ability tho

gloomy knoll
#

oops meant duskwalkers @balmy condor

final star
#

#

It's 20s additional CDR per application

#

For priest NF ability to reduce it

balmy condor

if we're just talking PI

@balmy condor another great day bud, keep it up

helluva upgrade lmao

gloomy knoll
stoic needle
#

it really takes 100% PI uptime and 55% gear haste to knock 10 seconds off vend cd with dusk?

#

that doesn't sound right

balmy condor
#

why not

stoic needle
#

if the usual cd with dusk is 70s

#

it takes 100% pi uptime and 55% gear haste to generate 300 more energy to knock 10 more seconds off of it?

#

that seems kinda ridiculous

balmy condor
#

thats what the sim says, yep

exotic rose
#

@wet dagger

stoic needle
#

how does energy generation scale with haste

exotic rose

!mut

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.

stoic needle
#

is it 10% haste = 1 energy per second?

balmy condor
#

maybe the apl is limiting it

stoic needle
#

well i don't know what "as expected" is to begin with

balmy condor
#

10% haste increases your passive energy regen by 10%, and increases the tick rate of your dots by 2/(1-haste)

#

aight we just slam vendetta on cooldown

#

probably APL jank

#

yep

#

BiS profile gets to 60 seconds

#

if you just slam vendetta without any sync nonsense or whatever

stoic needle
#

without any external buffs?

balmy condor
#

correct

misty holly
stoic needle

#

60 second vendettas pepehmm

400 dps down

so what does this mean for legendary rankings peepostudy

wtf

dumb q: doomblade doesn't work on internal bleeding does it?

stoic needle
#

man why is duskwalkers trash lmao

#

it does

solid shale
#

wtf seriously

stoic needle
#

yes

#

@balmy condor have you tried bloodfang + exsang KekW

balmy condor
#

no that sounds awful

stoic needle
#

It sounds memetastic

#

Also what about 60s duskwalkers on 0 time variation sims feelskek

#

But duskwalkers making vendetta line up with every sludge pillar could be giga

limber lion

#

This question probably pops up all the time and is overasked but I just swapped from Sub to Ass, was wondering which lego is better between Dashing Scoundrel and Doomblade? as I am getting mixed results online, mainly asking for Single target and 2 target style fights peepoLove

stoic needle
#

I cannot be stopped

limber lion
#

You can refer to the pins for more info and sims.

stoic needle
#

I kinda wanna craft duskwalkers now

#

Idk wtf else to do with this ash

charred wraith
#

Maw rattle ofc

gloomy knoll
#

i have a new idea

#

get rank 1 sin rogue and change my name to buff sub

stoic needle
#

Uh huh

cobalt flame
#

Only correct usage for unwanted soul ash is tiny toxic blade. Just with the name like that it is blast even if it did 0 dmg.

stoic needle
#

Good luck outparsing the Chinese PI funnel cabal

stoic needle
#

I pretend that legendary doesn't exist

#

Every time I think about it it makes me mad because of how sick the original version would have been if they just made it fucking work

#

It made your shiv spread bleeds to adjacent targets

cobalt flame
#

Give

sick aspen
#

quick question about weapon enhancements for assassination, is it shadowcore oil+phantom fire or AP stones+agi pots?

frosty cedar
#

Usually ap stones on 2+ and oil on 1 but sim it

stoic needle
#

Like are u fucking kidding me bro

cobalt flame
#

Hm nearby enemy

#

Not enemies

frosty cedar
#

Only one enemy

cobalt flame
#

Doesnt seem good

frosty cedar
#

Pleb leggo

stoic needle
#

It would be good

#

For m+ at least

#

It's still better than the dogshit version we have now

cobalt flame
#

Idk seems bad with only 1 target Sadge

stoic needle
#

Well yes obviously it would be a cleave legendary

#

Or m+ legendary

eternal turtle
#

haste crit on doomblade hands?

fallow otter
#

I wonder how awesome that is for huntsman

vital haven
#

spreed bleed to another target every 25 secs?

fallow otter
#

@stoic needle

vital haven
#

idk sounds kinda bad

#

prob would have to reduce the cd of shiv

limber lion
#

Definitely bad. That's why it got changed lol

cobalt flame
#

On cleave it would depend on if the extra CPs you save from refreshing rupture and energy from refreshing garrote outdps the pure dmg gain of other leggos

limber lion
#

Still bad

stoic needle
#

Nah it got changed because it didn't work

#

I mean look at how much dps cttc was pepechortle

#

Thinking about dps gains from saving cp

#

But yeah with -10 sec or -5 sec on shiv cd and the spread effect it would be lit

fallow otter
#

Being able to dump envenoms instead of refreshing a second target, be interesting to see at least

cobalt flame
#

Idk, all i want is one semi-decent aoe finisher that is not bound by talents for assa Sadge

stoic needle
#

Don't we all

cobalt flame
#

Idk why they couldnt give the powder to assa also, to have at least something

final star
#

I would like a more consistent aoe builder

#

Then class is fun

#

In aoe

#

8 targets

#

Best generate 1 CP

slow marsh
#

Idk I been smashing in m+ lately. Did a mists 6.1k overall at the end and beat fire mage + bm hunter

final star
#

I've done 6.4k overall in mists

#

But I've done 7.4k as outlaw

#

It's way more work as assassination for less gain

#

Cos of the inconsistency of FoK

slow marsh
#

Yeah I mean outlaw is better obviously

final star
#

Make Fok a good generator

#

And class is more fun in aoe

#

I don't think that can be disputed

slow marsh
#

Sure

final star
#

Really does feel like shit getting 1 CP off your aoe builder 😂

slow marsh
#

Sure

#

But if sin was good in aoe then outlaw would be in a tough spot

solid shale

Hello, I think this question has already been asked but, what is the difference between Vigor and Deeper Stratagem ? I see different people with this talents,

balmy condor
#

one sims higher than the other

#

which means one gives more damage

#

and that's usually a good thing

Hi!
Is Flayedwing Toxin trinket still bugged?

it's not bugged

Ok, then it depend on you stuff ?

Just opened the vault got Sire HC Head (only 8/10 HC atm, got normal Sire Head) and 226 Haste/Mastery Legs (got 213 Haste/Mastery legs), sim says they are an identical strong upgrade (difference of 2 DPS), any preferences which to pick?

Ok thanks, I go on raidbot to know which is better then ?

how does this week look for sin?

lament mica
#

do u mean for m+? cuz this week is pretty ass for everyone

compact pumice
#

Tyrannical = good for sin, (though packs will die quickly so on low keys the overall will be bad I think). Inspiring is terrible overall. Necrotic is also terrible for the tank. But sin is good at nuking priority target tho so kinda good too in a way.

yo could anyone help me with my vault, i simmed it but i feel like the item that came out isn't that great atm i have 220 51 haste 85 versa and i have to choice between 226 92 crit and 50 mastery or 226 46 haste and 96 mastery (all 3 are legs) my stats at this moment are 23.5% crit,21% haste,17.5% Mastery, 13.1% versa (i'm necro so i don't have the venthry haste)

misty holly
#

your current 220 has better stats, mastery sucks for single target. but I actually get all 4 secondaries about equal in dungeon slice sim

#

so for dungeons the 226 with crit would be what I keep

proper nest
#

its giving me the crit mastery pants over the haste versa onces what i din't really understand from the sims as i don't have the venthry procs so i can't really lose that ammount haste

misty holly
#

if that sims higher its better!

#

dont worry about dropping haste. Enough overall stats will beat a weaker haste item

proper nest
#

okey

misty holly
#

I was down to 14% haste a week ago after replacing a couple items with crit/vers upgrades

One last question, does buying things for Anima at current covenant and refudning in new still work?

compact pumice
#

Yes as of a few weeks ago when I did it

pseudo hamlet
#

If I have already ilvl 226 vers/haste gloves... and there's a 0,5% probability of getting Mythic Stone Legion Shoulders(got hc right now)... should I craft doomblade shoulders instead of gloves?

Also - is haste/vers on legendary that much worse than haste/crit? Asking because I'd like to do some PvP with the same legendary.

dusty rivet
#

Well i didnt even know about that i could have taken my 10k anima from night fae when i went venthyr last week

compact pumice
#

I transferred 5k that way

compact pumice
pseudo hamlet
#

Well, the difference is "just" 18 DPS... and there are no haste/vers gloves for PvP.

misty holly
#

From what ive seen crit tends to be better than vers for both single target and aoe, unless you are running the +50% crit talent.

#

but its not a huge difference

#

so crafting for vers not that bad.

pseudo hamlet
#

There should've been some kind of legendary scrapping thing.

When you say you finished 12, do you mean 12 dungeons or just a +12? @jade meadow

1st - I finished more than 4 or 5 dungeons this week : Means must have 2 loot options in VAULT.

2nd - I have only 1 loot and its 210 item lvel + when i choose to loot it , the game shows me that i will ALSO get m12 key.

limber lion

Yes , but i have only 1 loot bro

limber lion
jade meadow

is this normal for finishing m12 ?

limber lion

Send a ticket to Blizzard.

#

No, that is not normal

#

Do not loot the vault and send a ticket to Blizzard explaining your situation.

jade meadow
#

i searched via game , but i cant find a section to choose

limber lion
#

Press Esc and choose "Support"

#

Yeah there we go, this might be it then.

balmy condor

I would guess it's 2 vaults as well

no

#

the vault remembers

#

oldest ones open first

final star
jade meadow

the problem is

#

when i chose to loot the item

#

game shows me that i will also get a m12 key

limber lion
#

So what?

#

Why is that a problem?

jade meadow
#

problem is that i get 210 item level for m12 key

compact pumice
#

It might be the real vault then

limber lion
#

Your highest last week was a +12, so you're gonna get a +12 key this week.

#

I'm guessing it's the old vault that's giving you the new key reward

#

Old item, but new key

compact pumice
#

Did you loot vault last week?

jade meadow
#

I'm scared to try and loot it , cus if i loot i cant show blizz i got low item level proof

quasi ledge
#

Screenshot it

limber lion
#

There is only one mythic key you can get, so it probably dynamically upgraded to a +12 on this reset

quasi ledge
#

Loot it

limber lion
#

Yeah, you have a screenshot already

#

Just loot it

gloomy fern

you can loot vault x2, happend to my guild mate when he forgot to loot once

during 2 target cleave are you just constantly swapping targets to apply doomblade mutilate dot to both?

doomblades dot compounds the damage similar to ignite

isnt actually crimson tempest better for doom as it offers an additional bleed?

limber lion
#

You do usually take CT in AoE situations though.

prisma perch

even if posion bomb can never proc with shitty rng?

#

ya but cts effect doesnt matter with zoldyck

#

i mean as doom

limber lion
#

PB still wins in single target.

balmy condor
#

also it's guaranteed to proc btw

#

proc rates in wow aren't really true rng

4% per point so

20% i n all

yes but that's not entirely true

guys in m+ do you garrote /rupture the adds always or when do u stop?

hollow escarp
#

garrote 4 targets, rupture, mark for death, crimson tempest

prisma perch
#

oh i play vigor in aoe mostly

hollow escarp
#

I try to apply like 2-3 ruptures before focusing one target with shiv envenoms

#

well instead of mfd, build 5 cp and spend

prisma perch
#

i get to garrote 3x

hollow escarp
#

you can press a 4th one

#

that will also trigger the 6 sec cd

#

but do not overwrite

prisma perch
#

thats ur opener

#

then u stop garroting

hollow escarp
#

yeah, the most value you get from garrotes are from the subterfuge opener

prisma perch
#

at 6+ targets spam fok and ct?

hollow escarp
#

you could refresh if mobs live long

#

not sure if spamming CT is the play

#

just maintain it

#

and spam fok envenom

#

on a prio target

prisma perch
#

i see

hollow escarp
#

I've heard some discussions about CT spam but I don't think it's that good

#

CT is 8 target aoe capped

so you won't really need to spam it, unless tank chain pulls

and you wanna apply CT on those mobs as well

hey guys general question, do actions per minute matter a lot, or it doesn't matter as long as you are not capping energy

Guys - I'm about to dump all my soulash in to doomblade but i'm questioning whether i should play outlaw instead. According to mplus.subcreation it's higher tier than sin for both Raid AND M+... do you guys play sin because you prefer the playstyle and are you giving up much in terms of performance to do so?

mighty owl
#

I think if you want to be optimal you’ll play both, it’s kinda fight by fight thing in raid which spec is preferred

#

Both are good, just they have different roles

joking, but the "big" difference that I felt was the extra HASTE from venthyr affecting my stats weight

gloomy fern
strong wigeon
#

just sim it is what i usually get, and i know the dps is negligible

#

lemme specify, they are almost the same but venth is better for downtime fights due to prio dmg

#

am i right?

#

just wanted to confirm this

plain thistle
#

venthyr is better for single target, not sure if it changes anything with downtime

balmy condor
#

venthyr is worse if you have downtime, and better if the boss is immune or whatever

#

but it's not worth talking about

then i guess ill stay NF for now, gotta max all the covenants on the rogue towards the end of the tier anyways for ez swaps

@balmy condor would i be better off using r1 MA (with vers/mastery - don't ask!) or r4 Dooblade (with crit/haste) for m+? ps what's with the new name?

depends on the week

probably the ma

Which would be the viable covenant switch so I remain competitive as outlaw in raid/m+.

Venth or necro? Currently am NF.

zealous marsh

So I went there for no fucking reason kekw

limber lion

But tbh they're both so close that it doesn't really matter.

That's what my gut is telling me. Venth looks soo good for assasin tho. Making it hard to choose. Lol

keen tree
limber lion
#

Yeh, Venthyr is definitely the go-to for Assa.

A lot of people choose Venthyr as well because it's easier to play with than SBS

Comes down to personal preference in the end.

although the legs look like they are made of metal

Isn't venthyr bad for outlaw in m+? Or is the dps difference small?

zealous marsh
#

Ain’t that bad

keen tree
#

i asked in outlaw section and they said the difference not HUGE

zealous marsh
#

Better than kyrian kekw

rapid prism

Might be worth it just to go venth for that boost in ass raid damage. Outlaw cleave is already strong as it is.

#

And haste is good no matter whst lol

limber lion
#

Yeh, doesn't really matter tbh

rapid prism
#

Thanks all. Think I'll go venth.

I can assure you there will be plenty of other things that affect your dps than your covenant choice

Either in a good or a bad way
