Holy fuck this is actually a lifechanger
I sometimes get pinged whilst I'm asleep then I have to scroll through hundreds of messages to find the ping
This is sick



I’m looking to switch to sin for raiding, which Lego should I craft first?

Ceverion:
Doomblade. 
Tf u felt important in the server but no nice April fools
WHERES MY RED NAME
NO
😭😭😭
looking for switch Sin too for ST boss (Outlaw player), i'm actually NF, it's still good ?
Yes, perfectly fine.
i think all the covs are within a percent of each other right?
Ceverion:
Yes, they're all within 3% of each other. 
Does Kaels shade on the sun king fight continue to take dot damage when he jumps back?
What do you mean? When he comes back, he will not have any dots on him.
Oh you mean when the shade gets absorbed
No, don't think so.
what did change? i dont noticed any difference
oh nvm wrong place sry
Mordigen: i quit wow (⊙_⊙;)
congratz
community way to stupid
ill be quiting soon
MELTYVEINS: WITH NO FRESH CONTENT, THE GAME IS GOING TO SUCK
Good on ya, you're stronger than us.
i mean i lll be back when 91 hits
idk mate im strong believer in "if everyone around you is an idiot maybe its you" 
not that strong
No thats just me
Idiot:
┻━┻
Mordigen:
i have been looking for a guild over a month now for at least 5/10 M and i got denied for a month now cos im playing assassin...and they ask for outlaws only....fuck this....the game is great but the community sucks with all those meta whore that think everything else than meta is crap and not viable.....cya discord!!! 💔 
should i use envenom as often as i can or should i wait till the 10% bonus dmg (elaborate planning) or the envenom buff goes off?
use it a max-1 and just pool energy for the env buff
there are long windows between the shiv buff lol
Use it whenever you can without overlapping your Envenom's pandemic.
way too sad
whats your mythic exp @primal zinc
ty andwhats worse? overlapping or overcap on energy?
doubt guilds have been declining u just cuz assa especially with assa being one of strongest ST classes atm
Overcapping on energy.
Never cap on energy.
MORDIGEN: DOESNT MATTER ANYMORE I QUIT WOW I UNNISTALED IT...PERIOD
bye

yo boys execute lege or the other one on denathrius mythic?
!stats
**Shadowlands: ** Haste > Versatility => Critical Strike => Mastery
seems like most ppl run with the other one
Usually Zoldyck for progression and Doomblade for reclears.
Doomblade is pretty close in dps even in the execute though.
i see, thanks

@umbral slate Around 200 dps less overall, but around 300 dps more in execute.
Really depends on what your team needs more.
😂 thanks, decided to check the pins for it so deleted the message
I guess if I started 9.1 mythic then the execute would be good in most fights that are tough?
Fights where the last 30% is tough
yeah true
I guess SLG nobody cares how much damage you pull last phase but denathrius it's great
Yeah a lot of the time execute is the #1 niche for mythic progression
excepts SLG is aoe so it would pull ahead
But we can't really say anything about 9.1 numbers yet
Ei oo väliä, käytä mitä haluut :p
JuhoH: 😛 ಠ_ಠ
Tbh been a hunter for 9.0 but started looking for options for 9.1 progressions since the sad fate of hunters and thought execute could be something useful to bring to the table
who's the worst between hunter and rogue
anyone free to check my logs? want to do better
Sure, feel free to post them here
!bis
!doesmymotherloveme


WHO
Should rogues get mana tide totem so we would have a raid buff?
definitely
Thistle Tea Totem.
!butwhatisopener
hi guys, is it worth to use rupture at all in multitarget scenarios like m+ trash packs? I generally try to keep it up on the beefier targets, but tabbing is pretty taxing on my fingers
I do when Im not doing CT and the odd envenom to keep SnD up
but I focus targets that will live the longest to get the most value
You'll never get it up on everything before you have to start reapplying, its like painting the forth bridge
You should try to apply rupture to every single mob that can live the full duration
You need to find a good keybind setup or something for it
But it is pretty much necessary to do well as Sin in m+
alright, I guess I should just play with my platter configuration somehow, I feel like that could help a ton, thanks
Yeah for sure. There's a lot of great plater profiles in Wago.io if you want to take a look.
Also quite a few of our community members have their own plater profiles.
yeah whoever those guys are
What ilevel can you upgrade to with the all mythics done at 10+ achievement? 213?
Yeah thats what I thought, just for some reason my brain couldn't make that table be clear as to what you can upgrade up to, just what you can upgrade from lol
Anyone use any addons or WAs to track multi target dots? If so, what do you use?
I use nameplates, Plater specifically.
You don't really need anything else but good nameplates that can track the important things.
Without all of the unnecessary clutter.
Gotcha. Ty! I’m using kui atm, but I’ll check out plater
yeah plater here as well
Do you guys have any advice for Sire Mythic. I think my dmg in p2 is bad in comparison to other Assa Rogues.
You just need to do everything up and save cooldowns for the adds that you're supposed to use cooldowns on.
If RL shouts "Pummel boss, only cleave adds" you put bleeds up on everything that you can see, but still hitting Sire mainly.
okay. so the first part of phase 2 with the named adds is more or less okay. but i start to struggle with the Cabalist spawn. do i dot every thing on my screen? 2 Adds boss and Remonia? i tryed this ind got super fast gcd caped because of energie cap.
i changed to plater. i think its easier to see.
Yes you dot everything up
Ceverion:
You get energy from having ruptures/garrotes on enemies that have poisons on them 
You changed to plater from kui?
Don't be scared to use Rup/Gar on everything that you see on the screen
Except the adds in P1 of course.
Hello. Been night fae outlaw and sub and getting into assa now but i dont plan on changing covenants cause i like night fae.
I was wondering if anyone knew if the free ambush from nightfae overlapped with blindside talent ?
tbh i had duplicate things, and i really cleaned up my ui lol.. i had kui enabled among another
Okay. but you dont use full cp rup on the adds that die quickly right?
Yes it does
If you have a Blindside proc and your Sepsis ends and you use the Blindside proc, you don't get the Sepsis proc after
Not necessarily no, but the longer ruptures are still very much worth to put up instead of 1-3 cp ones
Gotcha. Yea I switched from elvui back to default w/ just custom bartender + kui. I’ll try nameplates and see what’s up! Ty!
The cabalists shouldn't die so quick where a 4 cp rupture is completely wasted.
You also get energy back from the rupture when the Cabalist dies which you can use to pummel the next adds.
okay but is there time to shiv when i rupture and Garrote everything?
I imagine myself running around and dotting everything but i think i cant use shiv on cd than right?
Why not?
Shiv doesn't require anything
Except for energy
And when you rup/gar everything, you have plenty of energy
CEVERION: SHIV NOT ON COOLDOWN = PRESS IT
jea but you want to evis in Shiv right?
It's Envenom, and it literally doesn't matter
Ceverion: You press it if it's not on cooldown (╯°□°)╯︵┻━┻
Moroes, the true homeboy, backing me up
You should take a look at the logs, they serve as good guidance for that part of the fight. :p
As long as you don't look at the cheese builds or the ones that get fed PI.
logs are your bible
they reveal the way to 99 parses
and its paying 200k for 4 priests to PI you the whole fight
thats the going rate in my guild
Filthy PI users 
okay. i will have a closer look in some locks.
I think i will just "copy" the Timelines -> Casts section of sb with the same cd timings that i have to play. i guess?
Pretty much.
If it works for them, it'll work for you.
If it's the same strategy/timing that you use that is.
okay. thanks again. i will deep dive now. 😄
Good luck!
and then they dont heal you, taking your money and laughing
Does blindside beat EP in ST because of the cp generation?
you get energy starved in ST so you run out of CP
I assume is the reasoning
I don’t think you quite have the energy to utilise EP well
outside of vendetta
you’d have to run an absolutely absurd amount of haste
fuck this discord icon bros
Any suggestions on how much Shiv uptime you should hope for before pressing it?
For example say boss is going into a phase here Im going to have to move for 5 seconds
shiv just came up
Im guessing I dont press it
what if phase starts in 4 seconds.
do I press it for 4 seconds uptime
or hold
hoe about 3 seconds?
bosses arent typically stand and rotation for 5 minutes. there's always mechanic variables happening too
?
you got me for like 20mins lol
sippin coffee just scrolling away
@misty holly depends bro
are you in lust rn? flag buff?
lots of variables
shiv when u can pump envenoms
It's really situational. Like if the boss phases for 20s, you should press it because you can't hit it for 20s.
like shriekwing 😄
That's why when we do log analysis, we try to look at bosses with little to no downtime and with little variable
but if it comes up like last seconds of p1 denathrius dont press it
u should always hold shiv for a bonus dmg window like first boss mots or somthing if u know und will reach the next phase in the next 3-5 sec its always better to hold and pooling the get as much shiv envenoms as possible in this windo or if u know u can use it proble because u dont need to doge things
I was thinking more like we're about to do soaks on Sire. or third sanguine depths boss is about to throw out orbs.
It's much easier to look through a Hungering Destroyer log than a Sire log
Like im gonna be busy for a bit here not dpsing, but its not really phasing
wym?
sire p1 just use cds on cd
and hold for p2 at the end of it
u can dps through everything except for blood price iirc
this inbox will show you all of your mentions
dont come at me with this knowledge now lol
Ho guys i have a few questions, si there any real difference between oils and sharpening stones ? And us there a difference between fire potions and agility potions ?
!oil
Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ
Do i lose a lot if i put zoldyck on legs instead of feet since i alrready have 220 feet with haste and crit
@balmy condor thx
So Single Target is fairly easy but does anyone have tips for aoe raid fights? Like we playing subterfugue or how
I'm showing him the pain of MFD Necro
yeh
I’m sorry for bothering u guys but can anyone help me analyse my logs to see where i can improve ?
Color changes, fake alerts, is April fools early this year or something?
Early????
u guys baited so many ppl today xD
Anyone else super stoked for real (not april fools) patch notes for 9.1? Stoked to see mut's nerfs. Lol
Same.
Nah..none that i've seen...just can't have too many melees towards the top of the charts...blizz would explode
imagine nerfing rogue :<
Vignesh: oh wow ༼つ◕_◕༽つ
i was triggered so hard by that icon
wait, are they really nerfing sin rogue in 9.1?
I'd love some subt love to make it competitive...def my favorite spec.
Lol no...it was a jooooke.
?
!guide
yeah but im feeling rogue is very much at top
concerning dps.
because I cant be making that much mistakes
OXI: GUYS
I'm 2 renown 
necrolord sin is good
ye its just nice for outlaw too i guess
does phial's dot count towards doomblade dmg?
no
yo I can't get rid of this notification
trinkets have no interaction with the spec
gottem
what
Flushies: oh right ಠ_ಠ
its the joke
Monkey Time:
They changed the server icon 
I see
Smh
Worst*
We’re all paladins xD
i went over to a mate, who also plays rogue to ask if he also was annoyed like me about the notification joke. he didnt notice, so i look at his discord, and he has several hundreds of notifications open, and not a single channel is muted. AAAAAAAAAAA
MAKEITQUAKE: SO YOUR MATE IS A MAN OF CULTURE AS WELL?
hmmmm
Okay moroes
how do people live like that!
By ignoring everything 🙂
i dont understand
im literally having a meltdown over the fact my mate never clears notifications
what do we do in aoe raid fights? for Huntsman we just refresh CT, Doom, garrote and rupture on the one active beast next to huntsman right?
yep
how do we play it for sunking/sire?
hey ma dudes,as a necro assassination where do we exactly sbs in the opener(provided we play ma talent).Mutilate==>snd(?)==>mutilate?
you don't play aoe on sire
we ignore p1?
Quietman:
If you're relying on rogue AoE for p1 on Sire your group has bigger issues 
i heard of using hiddenblades for the spawns
I've heard of not doing that
on guides
so posion bomb for sire?
moroes is eerily acurate here
maybe this is just an april fools joke?
if you need rogues aoe to kill p1 you got bigger issues on your hand than talent choices
Whispyr malding on April fools :/
That's what i said, then Moroes stole me 😦
its just for the meters guys chill
Just let your 10k dps mages handle them
padding
its dangerous to go alone?
I get it's the day to troll
but pls no

its so hard to tell sometimes
who's actually just an idiot
Internal bleeding?
Whispyr:
and who is just memeing 
lol
420
Anyone else bind envenom to foot pedal 9?
Quietman: I guess you kidney adds to get another bleed on and then more env damage? (⊙_⊙;)
Nah foot pedal 9, Q is for mount wym
Well played server admins with the fake @
mhm
Pogglerone:
mhm 
I use my snare for envenom
feint is better
actually ill rebind it to W right now
Toms are mut, ambush (blindside) and fok
Yeah but your snare doesn't line up with your wild spirits CD then?
Foot Pedal 9 for running
footpedal 8 for stealth? i was used for doing it with throttle forward on ma hotas :/
Yeahnahyeah: And you are left envenoming a mob with no armor pen? (╯°□°)╯︵┻━┻
Sin is hotas fuck
Bruh foot pedal 8 is Mut. You click stealth
but for real u guys when in p1 the adds spawn do u ignore the adds or do u throw in a fok?
i think you can FOK for Combopoints no?
FoK when they’re around you.
alright thanks
This is so true man, will change it up for sure. Had foot pedal 1 2 and 3 all bound to convoke the spirits but i could remove that for stealth too

📿

My guild says "FoK the boss up" and I wanna kms
is there a way to only sim a boss from 30-0% hp?
there's the patchwerk execute fight type
that starts at 20
but it's the same thing for us
so it's basically 30-0
SWEECZ[SUFFIX]: HUH, NEED TO TRY THAT FOR DENATHRIUS LAST PHASE TO COMPARE CLASSES FOR FUN
wait what
people have already done that
for all classes?
yeah
ohh
it's honestly not that interesting
how do i find that?`:o
Where are shamans on that list, oh wise mana ride?
because people were curious for 9.0.5 ptr stuff
Could be M+ 😛
i do this mostly for m+
Dauntless>WPS @undone eagle
Katar gang only 😡
you should probably play katar
and also put lashing as the first conduit
so you can play dauntless in raids
Even Poisons is better for AoE, yeah?
Katar > LP?
Than WPS*
also does better aoe
for aoe, yes, for dungeonslice, no
I usually go LP just cause it helps with pridefuls
they're usually equal on dungeonslice
without sacrificing too much on aoe
Ty me go back to trolling 
well i guess i usually go outlaw, tbh.
So I go for daunteless and put lashing on WPS?
That’s truly the best line in m+
for single target
MakeitQuake:
For single target, dauntless + lashing.
For m+ swap katar and WPS. 
single target should be lashing dauntless, dungeons should be lashing + lp/katar
so in order to swap between the two
thanks!
you need to put lashing on the top
i did 😛
and when I buy the upgrade conduit from venari
i cant choose what i wanna upgrade? i just upgraded a random sin conduit sadpepega
i wanted lashing to be 226
its only 200 xD
it randomly chooses one of your lowest conduits
so in order to get a 226 lashing
you would need to get all your other conduits to 213
i got so many 200
and then rng into the 226 lashing
hektor: .. ಠ_ಠ
whats the name of that addon for mutilate and ambush on same bind friend needs it
yeh in that case I guess have fun
!bs
Macroing Ambush to Mutilate only works with the use of a addon.
It comes with the downside that it often requires multiple key presss.

thanks
np
You smelled me from a mile away huh
Yeah just use dslice on raidbots 🙂
i was serving drinks in sinfall and then this pungent smell came up, i thought to myself it can't be true
I was thinking about swapping necro till I saw the leather set
dont you wanna look like a garbage can?
JPS: ITS REALLY COOL
...
Everyone I know is switching to assassin lol
Yeah it’s pretty awful
yeah that was me
Hell I might need to switch to assassin, how is it now? Is true it’s pumping?
feels really great on ST and good on cleave
it's also hella fun in m+
We just pretend it doesn't exist 
shoulda renamed channels to: raid spec, m+ spec, dead spec
oof
Maybe pvp spec instead of dead spec 
See I thought that, but then I was like
assa is pretty good in pvp and everyone is playing it in awc
are they? that’s pretty neat
i thought the rotten was pretty mad in pvp
what class should i play while i wait for assassination to be good
Assassination is good?

OXI: SHAMAN
wtf moroes
One time on Kul'tharok I ran to a mana tide totem during Draw Soul instead of the grasping hands 😦
I dont like shaman anymore.
They got you too? 
He joined willingly, shaman is best class 🙂
shaman?

Sly360XhamsterEz:
How much haste do i need for DS to be better than Vigor? I feel like i don't even have enough energy regen for my opener 
What is the current best leggy
Doomblade

yea it says that doomblade and dashing scoundrel that there is a differencei n how it feels
so is it personal preference to those 2?
do you have any fabreeze? I have this weird smell in my nose ever since I switched necro

basically yeah. doomblade technically does more damage, but dashing scoundrel is easier to target swap with and get the full value of the legendary compared to doomblade and it makes the rotation feel a tiny bit better. it's also slightly better for mythic+
alright
On council is it worth to rupture the non focus target for energy regen to funnel more dmg, or is that worse than pure single target focus?
Worth 100%
If the two targets are stacked on each other, otherwise you'd waste time and dmg running to dot
what cogvenant would you play on rogue.. is either... venthyr or kyrian viable?
Venthyr
it's literally the first pin
this icon top right of discord
is assa mainable for any content?


does that mean no or yes?
yes
Yes

its worse than outlaw for dungeon, but completely viable
it's better on single target so has benefits
since sin doesn't have a big burst, specialy AoE, but it is usable, yes
but yeah, it's unlikely it'll outdps an outlaw
but i personally enjoy playing sin better in m+ and honestly maybe do better as sin
but that's caz im trash outlaw
damn since i just swapped guilds i hoped someone took some kind of logs to ask for some pointers
i'll run a pug this weekend and log those myself.
i did 4.something on sludge HC and i feel it's really low but i don't really hjave comparisons.
don't remeber if it was 4,2 or 4,.8 lol

The notification on the logo pranked me... just as the shaman mains, was like "where am I?!"
a good one xD
Its not humorous though. There's just only so much you can do
there's always one
Guys is it worth playing assa for m+?
I really vibe with assa more than outlaw :P
I wonder what they did in game though. There was 1 quite a few years ago that was pretty good.
WHISPYR: IT'S NOT GREAT, BUT IF YOU DON'T LIKE PLAYING OUTLAW, IT'S GOOD ENOUGH
It spammed your play time was expiring
most likely nothing, they released patch notes
that's all we're gonna get
Probably
This question is coming from a humble place as I've played sin for a while, but always trying to improve--Say you're doing a mythic plus and youre about to pull 4-5 pack...what is the ideal rotation here?
Blankwave:
I feel like I lose a lot of potential dps in m+ vs ST 
It's totally fine in M+. I think the only scenario where you would have to actually swap to Outlaw would be trying to do >19M+ keys and have the as high potential as possible.
For ~14-17M+ keys Assassination is more than fine.
I’m gearing my rogue for the first time and I know I have to make two leggo a one for single target and one for aoe. Should I be crafting the st or aoe leggo first? I plan to do both m+ and raiding on it only
I think that Zoldyck is overall pretty good for everything(better than Doomblade for M+), while Doomblade is better for ST.
The MA is really good for aoe, pvp, general use like world questing
assass is the move in TBC right bois
Useful for all the specs too
wronjg chat
Many thanks 🙂
Make doomblade for sin st, then make celerity for all purpose m+ outlaw
Anyone else go venth and really missing NF?
never thought I'd say it cause i like the aesthetic more but I'm not feeling venth as much as i thought i would
the mobility was nice but ventyr is way mor efun inside the roatation
yeah i liked kyrian the least for sure
ive been all 4 and definitely just liked sepsis better for some reason, but maybe its cause my rogue is my mythic raid alt so I just want ez life
I've only tried kyrian, and I think glowy combo point good.
I'm sure with doomblade you can get some monstrous envenoms but the phial seems meh on a rogue compared to other classes
Blankwave:
I started the expac with kyrian 
guys we can use exacting prep to buff then swap back to dd right?
So how should I plan on crafting my leggys(let's say Might regret going for assa and go back to outlaw after a while)?
I mean if you are just making the first one and plan on swapping around a bunch maybe start MA
the best legendary to craft overall for the rogues is MA
yeah def craft Master Assassin first if you're unsure what spec you want to main
I can say from experience that I have played all three and regret not doing that first, I now have 6 leggos lol
But the player above asked about 2 legendaries for his assassination rogue.
Zoldyck is good in ST(especially on progression, such as Sire Denathrius) and one of the best for M+.
Doomblade is awesome for ST.
Correct, but my rogue isnt my raid main so having a bunch at 190 doesnt really matter much, I have zoldyck doomblade and akaaris at 235
Is sin truly sleeper
I mean it's not sleeper, look at the mythic raid logs lol
No as in boring
boring is subjective
^
Oh, fair... I don't find it boring, it's intentional
If that makes sense
Sort of like arms warrior, you always have something to improve on even though its not wildly spammy
Varas:
kinda weird that rogues have highest apm and lowest apm specs 
yeah, but is it high apm if it's 2 buttons?
I just have Finality, Doomblade and Zoldyck at 235 ilvl... Should've gone with MA instead of the first one, because I wanted to have one legendary for Raiding/PvP, but we all know what happened to Sub. 
if you like and enjoy the APM specs (enhance, outlaw, others I'm sure) then it'll definitely feel sluggish

I am sub player
If you're wildly bored when you dont have a dance going in sub, you may not love sin
sin will feel like sub when you don't have dance up, the only extra burst of energy we get and need to spend quickly is from vendetta (2 min CD)
i mean, it's not actually to that extent of energy starvation because we take vigor and like higher levels of haste
Skippy: And i try to play this and I
(╯°□°)╯︵┻━┻
but you will need to just take a global and a half to chill and let energy build for envenom windows
Well, I wouldn't say so. I think that Assa isn't THAT boring. Sometimes you can pool up energy, use bleeds at the right moment to get the perfect Shiv window etc.
I'll play deeper when I hit 27% haste
And I see a lot of ppl saying sin is boring
Thanks ❤️
a lot of people find the "do nothing for 2 globals so we can pool energy for shiv/envenom windows" as boring
Why 27% haste?
arbitrary number
Figured
I played DS for like half of BFA, I'll go back to it when I feel less traumatized by having 6CP
27% haste is the new 34% crit?
how much haste you need to use DS in raids?
Is sin pretty good in aoe or am i only noob in single target? 😂
sin aoe is awful
whenever it sims higher
At 18% haste DS sims about 17dps better than vigor with NF
😦
I wouldn't use it in M+ but sticking to it for a whole raid probably isn't terrible.
No haste cap
So as much haste as possible?
Always sim for the best gear combo
Hmmm...simming all things is boring for me 😂
I have master assasin legendary..should i make zodak, when i dont have much mastery?
zoldyck does not require mastery to perform well
mastery remains our worst stat in single target, no matter the legendary, and it only performs slightly better in aoe
Oh, okay, so i will aim for zoldyck...should i know how to play outlaw aswell or am i ok for raid and m+ with sin?
depends on how high you're gonna push
I wouldn't recommend going into a +22 with a sin rogue
but sin does good enough for most people
I am on +10 at the moment on 195 ilvl
Switech to venthyr yesterday..is it best way to get renowns in lfr?
I believe most efficient way to get renown is do campaign quests and +2s. Renown and valor farm
I’ve also heard that there is a bug where if you are in the middle of a campaign chapter, sometimes renown won’t drop from other content. just something to watch out for
Anyone else see a random notification?
doesn’t happen to everyone but if you are like “wtf where is my renown” that could be the issue
Whispyr:
:PepeLaugh: 
no
he fell for it
Weird
ladies and gentlemen, we got him
Hey I’m new to assa and wondering if it’s ever worth to use Fan of Knives? I thought it generated combo points like shuriken storm for Sub but I guess it doesn’t
Alrighty well I'm gonna go back to whatever I was doing before
Do Mythic 0s - LFR - Normal Raid - Heroic Raid - Then M+ 100%
Whispyr:
we use it on 4 or more targets 
that's just the server icon
bruh, i just realized what day it was. that fkn icon
You guys are getting got so hard today 
god dammit
my ocd
You use FoK in 4+ targets.
Ok cool, it feels a lot worse than shuriken on multiple targets cause of the combo point generation
Yep sure does
It is worse than shuriken storm for CP generation, but that’s another spec. And sin aoe feels a lot better than spamming SS > Black Powder anyway
KYLEPLS: YEA I’M STILL TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE IT WORK IN M+
more dots
it's really not that hard
people like overcomplicating it
for no good reason
Feels like things die before I can get garrote on 2-3 targets
Whispyr: cause they feel like there has to be some deeper knowledge ╰(°▽°)╯
and there just isn't
that means things die in less than 3 seconds
Do higher keys
are you not playing subterfuge
Feels bad in lower keys, yeah. Just takes a bit to ramp up. When the dots are rolling you do decent damage though
I took a nap because I slept for 4hours and was feeling awful earlier, and now I woke up and feel even worse. halp
I’m using MA legendary and subterfuge, when you vanish with loads of dots up for 3 good garrote everything critting is good dam for sure
Don’t have a 235 Zoldyck yet though
naps never help.
Can also try the NS + MFD + CT build with the MA legendary. Though if the tank chain pulls and you don’t get into stealth you’ll be a bit pissed 
I think it's still a bit frustrating if you're playing subt + zoldyck, but yeh, maybe a bit less :p
Best openning pls? Playing Venthyr
Should have went to sleep before two 
!guide
Compared to outlaw not getting into stealth is annoying overall yeah
Yeaah... 
it's about the same
NS vs Subt
in the amount of fucking
I'd actually argue most of the time you're losing more from chain pulls with subt
Whispyr:
because the big value with NS CT is the big aoe packs 
where you're probably not chaining into them to begin with
playing sin this season after pushing last season playing priest has been jarring
Yeh maybe. I was just thinking that MA is pretty much a non-existent legendary if you never get stealth but Zoldyck still works even if you don't get a stealth opener. Welp, it's annoying nonetheless
I think that matters more tbh yeah
Exactly
Is Infexious a credible source for sin content?
!guides
gottem
probably not
but if you get 34% crit you might unlock the secret talent
quit meme-ing me! it's past noon lol
no
I started playing all 3 specs this patch and i got 890 haste but sims still simming better as more haste i got, anyone know the haste cap or there's not? :S
there is not a hard cap for stats
There is no haste cap or any breakpoints for any stats whatsoever
Stop worrying about secondaries.
So i keep stacking haste as much as i can?
there is diminishing returns tho which starts at 30%?
No
Yes
There is a soft cap at 30%. You won't need to worry about it this patch.
Mupaul:
Shiv then flag in the opener? 
You just have to sim yourself.
^
Aurumz:
im alrdy on 27% with some pieces without haste 
so i think i can get it soon
That's a looot of haste
No shortcuts
only sim 
that do be a lot of haste
Yami Yelly McYellington: Dumb question, does Zoldyck effect envenom? Is envenom considered a poison? ༼つ◕_◕༽つ
It's not like it falls off a cliff at 30% either. Just each point of haste past 30% does less and less.
@split cipher No, the effect causes you to apply poisons more often but Envenom is not considered a poison
I think it is 70% effective at 30% haste
thank you!
MAKEITQUAKE: YES AND NO. ENVENOM IS CONSIDERED A POISON ON SOME THINGS BUT NOT OTHERS. ZOLDYCK’S DOES NOT CONSIDER IT A POISON
Not caps, but sure
so for unitarget the best it is Haste > Crit right?
cuz when i gear more vers i deal more dmg but sims less
you have to sim yourself
i dont get it
There’s no set stat thing, you just have to sim haha
There’s a general guideline, but it’s always changing
fan of knives on 4+ targets?
Based on what gear you have now
crimson temp
I don't think I've ever seen someone use the term 'unitarget' before
Yes
the point is that i was main outlaw and was like so ez
take vers as much as u can and end
Even for Outlaw it doesn't work like that
man..
It doesn't work for any spec like that
i know to use it
Also, is it a ST increase to keep Crimson Tempest up on bosses in m+? And is it more dps than rupture?
You don't stack a stat till the end of time
well in outlaw i stack as much vers and i hit harder
It's less damage than rupture on ST, but yes you do keep it up
Yes but you don't want to do that
ppl's going with 1,3 k vers
The other stats increase your dps as well
Just in different ways
Like said
You have to sim yourself
Depends on your talents and target count
Just follow what the APL is doing.
Hey I'm progressing on council tonight. How do you setup vendettas on this fight ? Do you cast it on CD no matter what or do you wait for a window after recital // immunity add ?
did i see somewhere that we are supposed to dot one of the bosses your not killing in council for energy? or did i just dream that lol
And do you loose 1 vendetta during the fight by delaying it to not get fucked up by recital ?
correct
You play it wisely by only using it if you get the full duration out of it. No point using before dance/right before boss dies
dotting off targets is a single target dps gain
But I wouldn't wait for Recitals/adds tbh
I can't figure how to play it this fight feels so bad mna
Anyone wanna group up on horde side and spam dungeons to lvl alts?
this isn't lfg
does the doomblade legendary stack like ignite
tsuid:
My casters are either too lazy or too slow to react and kill the add before it gets to melee so I usually waste a couple muts on him 
yes

TSUID: DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS TRICK THX.
wut what happened
you only garrote off targets and the occasional mut to apply deadly poison on council.
Nah
You maintain 4 bleeds
And apply poison via shuriken toss correct ? I'll try this thx :)
not on council of blood which is what we were talkin about
What skill should I use after a Vanish?
you maintain rupture and garrote on the off-boss
Whispyr:
that is immune 
because it increases your single target damage
ok great thanks 🙂
Whispyr: depends on your talents, mut/env with MA, garrote with subt, rupture single target with NS, CT in aoe (⌐■_■)
guess I wasn't here when we changed because I swear a week or two ago the response was to only put garrote up on council. guess my info is already outdated.
Shadow:
was that for me? 
But you do
hey guys im trying to play with ns and marked of death u think i must play with zoldyck legendary or marked of assasin legendary
MA
Yes
can u give me rotation for ma and ns and marked of death
so just to check is it just gar on off target or rup and gar?
Sage Har:
plz - 
MFD in stealth - CT - Fok - Rup - Fok - Rup - Gar
on solo target ? what is rotation on solo
i must use ct or not
I haven’t played assa since BfA and I know we had tons of haste corruption back then, but is it really supposed to feel this slow to play?
On single target you'd mfd rupture from stealth, garotte, mut to 4/5 and then CT, and maintain ct like any other dot
Yes
hey hey, i ve change to assa from sub, i ve read the description on ravenholdt and i ve seen haste is more important than versatility. however, i tried to gear to crit/vers, should i switch to crit/haste?
Crit/haste is a safe choice
Right, I just feel like I’m pooling more than I’m actually pushing buttons.. Just got to get used to it I guess
hmm i mean i must m o d in stealth first use rapture or ct on somthing like prideful or solo targeting
oshosi: Yes, mfd rupture from stealth for single target (⌐■_■)
owww ok
ty
sweet thanks Warner
as a former outlaw, Haste/Vers was the go-to for ST/raid content anyway, so going sin was an easy transition. Just have to fill in the gaps with crit. NP!
sounds good, so i should go any focus on that then
Secondaries don't really matter.
so should i drop my crit/vers to the bin then?
It's not like you can't swap from sub to Outlaw because Sub has different stat weights
No
from what I understand, and feel free to correct me anyone. System shock and creeping venom were usually the go-to for sin. Smoke bomb is optional, but still pretty good.
Ceverion:
Mists or PF 
Mists
took me 32 Mists to get dagger. 
😦
Would anyone be able to look at my Inerva log? Had to do orbs once, but would like to know if there's any major thing I'm doing wrong in my rotation-ish things
https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/b3LPJfC26Nq81rhp
If possible, much appreciated ^-^
guys elborate planning really work better than master poisoner ?
😄 10 % for 4 sec idk
can somone help me
in pve ?
owww
for heal reduction
Only use Master Poisoner in PVP and in Torghast
I use blindside
blind side on pve ?
Unless you talking about keys
Then I use planning
Anytime there's talk about pve I assume we're talking st unless guy asking states otherwise
Am I missing something or why is my Mutilated Flesh refreshing to 5 seconds only half of the time?
Confuses me so much that its being so inconsistent all of the sudden
Yes. Not sure if phishing or not though
why is your 3-4 cast a blade flurry
there is no adds at this point
you should never use this in ST
and it’s a outlaw log
send it in outlaw
I mean the Inerva one, which I did as Ass
ow it's for some reason showing the Outlaw one now :/
I'll just change the link to the log of all fights so Inerva can be separately selected cuz it keeps swapping to the next boss killed
VENGEFFUL: DO U GUYS USE MOUSEOVER OR TABBING FOR MULTI-TARGET?
Tab-targetting most of the time, sometimes mouseover is better. @faint girder
I’m a tab gamer as well. But listen to cev, he’s actually good 
Tab gamers rise up
I tab unless there's something specific, then I /target it (ie. Bladebeak Hatchling in ardenweald)
MALEEK: DOES ANYONE HAVE A CASTSEQUENCE MACRO FOR AN OPENER IN LIKE A BOSS FIGHT
can anyone see sense in putting pi on a ww monk
why not
no
Because your opener changes every pull
It's not the same every time
monk doesnt gain much from pi
There's a lot of factors that change how you open. Whether or not you crit, whether or not the boss parries a spell, whether or not you have lust etc.
seconded
Thirded
I agree...game already has enough anti-melee shit going on as it is
the only thing I can see cast sequence macro being okay for would be when you're using double on-use trinkets
Don't recommend that either.
True
but they share 20s cooldown between uses
cant use them at the same time
u wanna use flag right before ur first rupture not with vendetta
why?
because its more lashes
Vendetta amps the initial flag hit tho I thought
cuz u dont want to be wasting globals refreshing bleeds during vendetta
it doesn't really matter where exactly you put them
Is it impossible to parse well on shriek unless the group kills it before second phase?
is it even worth running anything else then doomblade anywhere?
In Heroic? Yes.
yes, the longer the fight the less dps you are doing.
Yeah, you don't use Doomblade in M+
Dang, gotta assemble a pumper group ;\
doom still sims the best for me just done a +19 intime with doom
For mythic if you end up with 2 intermission phases on shriek its gonna be harder to get a good parse
what is your avg overall? just curious what numbers assass is doing in higher keys
Depends on what you consider a good parse though
You can get 95+ even with the intermission
here you go
I did a +18 SD and did 7k overall
spires is kinda low i guess alot of cc packs no big pulls
ryfie's getting 7-8k in his keys pretty comfortably as well
Word, I am a fire mage, and I am trying to get my rogue back up to specs.
well I got 99 on hungering which is single target similar to shriek, but I can't pump more than 91 on shriek
Depends on the dungeon, I do between 6k and 7k usually, I think my best was a 18 or 19 mists with 7.2k
Ye, around 7k is great
Yeh, need to skip the intermission then
after playing mage all xpac, coming back to my rogue feels beautiful
done 7 on necrotik wake
is zoldyck the go to for m+ or is doomblade viable?
zold
lost to that hunter tho D:
well as i just said i've done a 19 with doom so should work
Yeah it's fine
But it's not the go-to
noice! is the diff like huge between zoldyck and doomblade?
Yes
They do different things
idk doom sims better for me so
You get little value from Doom because you don't use mutilates/envenoms in packs
MONO: I HAVE THE ASH TO CRAFT ZOLDYCK
doom definitely sims better but not sure how well it translates over to actual m+
true. hmm 🤔
@limber lion Thanks for the info! Out of curiosity, do you happen to know what's the best way to parse well on council. Dot all 3 targets or single target 1? And is any specific order mandatory for good parse ( similarly to how druids need niklaus to die last in order to parse well )
yea super hard to sim a real m+ scenario
i mean i can craft it on 235 and try it if you are sure its alot better
Tbh just dot up a second target but that's it
It's a bit too much if you try to have bleeds up on everything
yall putting zoldyks on legs
It's not very good except for certain dungeons where you are fighting small packs a lot of the time like theater of pain or plaguefall
Thanks!
Yes
But yeah, fact is still that you get literally 0 use for Doom in dungeons where you pull more than 3 mobs at a time.
It's still fine on bosses, but non-existant on packs
And in M+ the packs are the majority of your overall damage.
so you guys suggest to craft zoldyck? have the ashe have the moneys i can try have a 20 necrotic wake key
Even during Tyrannical weeks.
Zoldyck or MA
Doom probably gets good value if your tank is chain pulling/not pulling big too
rly dont know how to paly with ma in higher keys can you rly burst that much to be worth?
7-8k in overall with MA. Seems fine to me
im trying to decide if i play my recently leveled rogue as outlaw or assassination on m+, do u guys think assassination is alot hard then outlaw?
Its harder to be good
Outlaw is better and easier for m+ imo.
Mono: its harder id'say and probably better (❁´◡`❁)
Assa is definitely harder than Outlaw in M+, but I don't think it's thaaat hard honestly
outlaw is much harder for me than sin due to the psychological stress I get playing a class/spec without DoTs
It's easier to get great results with Outlaw
@limber lion well if you check keys most assas cant get more then 20's
Not that many people play Assa in high keys
true!
cause when you get into high keys you need the CC outlaw brings
It's not because they can't
i main priest disc with offspec on spriest, so dot every mob on packs and maintaing is hard lol
It's just that Outlaw is better so for pushing they just default to it
outlaw brings 1 cc more while assa brings big silence
It's cause outlaw is just better in every way
does blade flurry make kidney shot an AoE stun? cause if it doesn't, it should
I think you’ll be happy with that @eternal sleet
crit haste still right?
heya! what professtion would you recommend for a rogue in shadowlands?
or just sim
