balmy condor
#

I did not

indigo mulch
#

even if sub is equal or even SLIGHTLY ahead sin will still be the to go tbh.

#

Its just how the fights are designed if you ask me atleast.

low girder
#

it was like 1% behind before wasn't it

balmy condor
#

It was 0.2% behind akaari

#

At 7.2

#

And then 2% optimization to 7.3

low girder
round pecan
#

how's assassination dealing in ptr atm with dmg?im new rogue btw

balmy condor
#

It received no buffs

#

So

#

I guess fine

stoic needle
#

deathspike is a buff NODDERS

balmy condor
#

Yeah a 0.4% buff in single target over no legendary

stoic needle
#

i don't give a finnuck about single target

#

im talking about aoe

indigo mulch
#

I wish i could play sub, its actually pretty fun. Assassination will for sure be better though.

low girder
#

plays sin

#

wants to do aoe

balmy condor
stoic needle
#

i'd rather quit

worthy heart
#

I need rogue council: i'm progressing council of blood, but next week is push week: i have no clue on what to do if to stay venthyr for ST damage or to go back necrolord for the sweet rio

stoic needle
#

isn't our aoe better than outlaw's anyway kekw

#

necrolord is better for council

#

because of sbs resets

low girder
#

if that were true where is your SLG dmg kekw

worthy heart
#

Then i'm fucking r3tarded

indigo mulch
#

Just go back to necro. You prob wanna play necro for SLG anyway.

stoic needle
#

no rogue does damage on slg

worthy heart
#

You're right

low girder
#

it's all relative

stoic needle
#

my job is to kill goliaths and do boss damage and i'm doing that

stoic needle
#

i'm not trying to whore my overall on prog

worthy heart
indigo mulch
#

That way you could go outlaw aswell ๐Ÿ˜„

stoic needle
#

i'm always top goliath damage

gloomy knoll
#

if deathspike is the aoe legendary for sin and sub

#

then they have no chance of touching outlaws aoe

#

because they have bladeflurry

stoic needle
#

idk about that bruv

gloomy knoll
#

at least until much higher density

stoic needle
#

fuu posted some sims with both sub and sin with higher aoe than outlaw

slim sable
#

!guide

worthy heart
#

Also it's not that bad for those instant 5cp on council is it

slim sable
#

!rotation

stoic needle
#

sin > outlaw on less than 5t, and sub and sin > outlaw on > 5t

low girder
#

that was like 8t over 5m

#

tbf

#

which doesn't exist

gloomy knoll
#

there's no way sin > outlaw on less than 5t

#

that's 100% cap

#

maybe 2t it beats it maybe

stoic needle
#

sin is better at 2 and 3

low girder
#

^

stoic needle
#

outlaw doesn't win til 4/5

indigo mulch
#

Actually sin does more damage at 10+ targets aswell ๐Ÿ˜„

#

if they survive long enough

gloomy knoll
#

and if you look at huntsman it's about 50/50

#

sin/law

#

i do think sin is better 2t tho

low girder
#

huntsman isn't really 2T sustained with random adds coming in and whatnot

#

if you do a proper 2T sustain sim sin crushes

stoic needle
#

i think overall it's close enough that you can play what you want

#

aka i can never play outlaw again

indigo mulch
#

I mean, i told my rogues to go outlaw for slg :p

stoic needle
#

My RL told me to go sin because we have 2 windwalkers, 2 fire mages, 2 boomkins

#

honestly i'd love to play sub on slg

indigo mulch
#

If you can't push goliaths without someone going full ST your doing something wrong.

#

๐Ÿ˜ฎ

stoic needle
#

well i'm not going full ST

#

i still use aoe talents

gloomy knoll
#

ah good point mata

stoic needle
#

but i contribute more to the raid focusing on the goliaths than I do playing outlaw and killing spreeing the adds

indigo mulch
#

Its a lot easier to control the adds if you just go full ham AoE lol

stoic needle
#

we have 2 wind walkers and 2 fire mages and boomkins

#

and a havoc

#

they are controlled KekW

#

oh and a frost dk too

indigo mulch
#

I mean i'm sure you killed the boss a couple of times. I havent even killed it myself ๐Ÿ˜

stoic needle
#

nah we're still progging it

indigo mulch
#

I benched myself to become the 21th man.

stoic needle
#

after 2 nights we consistently get to grashaal

#

i think we can kill it in 2-3 more weeks at this rate

low wedge
#

btw does anyone know if the venthyr lego is bugged or does it increase vers for every combo point used during flag, and the reduce cd is always?

gloomy knoll
#

it's beyond bugged on ptr

indigo mulch
#

I honestly felt like p2 was easier to prog than p1 was.

low wedge
#

so it should be like the tooltip?

stoic needle
#

it doesn't seem to be too bad so far

#

i'm worried about the 2nd intermission but we'll see

indigo mulch
#

No, 2nd intermission is free

#

As long as your raidleader knows what hes doing you should have no issues doing the second intermission.

balmy condor
#

So 12 seconds of ramping stats, and cdr, then 12 seconds of lingering stats

low wedge
#

the vers is not bugged then right? think thats how it is in ptr

indigo mulch
#

So why are people running ep/vigor for sire?

gloomy knoll
#

lots of p2 dam

indigo mulch
#

Is there a specific reason why people are? I thought blindside at p3 would just be super good o:

gloomy knoll
#

it's for parsing

indigo mulch
#

Ah yeah

gloomy knoll
#

blindside better for prog yea

indigo mulch
#

All my raiders are a bunch of parse horny mofos. They get really upset when i tell them not to blast everything D:

wanton path
#

Hey just got 233 dreadfire from vault, I know they changed it so 100% crit lego doesnt have any effect on it but what about vendetta or the MA talent? Just wondering if theres an optimal time to use it or just on cd?

fading wigeon
#

People can't hold back lol

wanton path
#

is its crit based on your base crit chance?

compact pumice
wanton path
#

yeh srry meant the crit just random not the usage haha

#

tyty

compact pumice
#

It's apparently affected by fire mages fire% damage though, so kinda unfair

wanton path
#

but not vendetta?

#

thats some bs

compact pumice
#

Nope

#

I mean vendetta says it only increases damage done by your abilities

strange bear
#

recently got 2 daggers and ive been trying out assasin, im 219 and always energy starved is this normal

stoic needle
#

Sin is just a slower paced spec

#

But you should also check your uptime on your bleeds

compact pumice
#

And remember to use poisons

strange bear
#

i havent really done anything but open world content so far, i just kill with envenmom cause the mobs weak

compact pumice
#

Try it out on some big mobs then if you want to feel how the energy is.

#

You will need to put up both bleeds to get energy pumping

strange bear
#

thanks for the advice ill go test it out on the world boss

#

wont be doing any dungeons till the weeekend

frail fossil
#

can someone check a hc hungering log real quick ?

#

i wanna make sure i didn't make an oopsie

#

except misstiming my pot Kekl

hallow spear
#

Is it worth to changing to Necrolord For Denathrius progress?

drifting cloud
#

nah

frail fossil
#

not rly no

drifting cloud
#

its only for overall, p3 boss dmg is about same

strange bear
#

@compact pumice yah that felt a lot better, but does haste smooth it out? coming from outalw im all vers/crit and only at 10%

compact pumice
#

Venthyr changes it a bit but haste is not really that noticeable other than a bigger buff like Flagellation

#

I mean it depends

#

on how you compare it but you don't really play differently, just maybe press a button slightly faster

#

It wont feel anywhere near as fast as Outlaw though

stoic needle
#

Haste only gives 1 extra energy per second per 10% haste

low girder
#

how much extra does it give from faster VW procs

#

i know it'll be miniscule

#

but you should add that

drifting cloud
#

yeah vw are most of the energy "regen"

strange bear
#

alright, thanks everyone. ill put in more practice to it. shouldnt expect it to be as fast anyway thinking about it since outlaw is one of the higher apm specs

stoic needle
#

dots tick at 2/(1+haste/100)

#

But I'm not exactly sure whether that's rating or %

#

I'd have to go look into it

#

At 17% haste my sbs ticks every 2.5 seconds, down from 3

low girder
#

yeah i wasn't sure what the conversion was

frail fossil
low girder
#

am i clicking a 98

#

even worse

frail fossil
#

oh fuck it's private hold on

low girder
low girder
#

oh right you're necro

#

making me think about using abilities i don't have

frail fossil
#

like my parse aint bad but 96 in hc aint crazy with a guy giving me PI too

low girder
#

tbf that kill time

#

pretty unfortunate

slow marsh
#

There's no way I pass up a 226 phial even if i have a 220 right?

frail fossil
#

sim it

slow marsh
#

Even for 226 socketed bloodoath signet with speeeeeed?

#

I am

stoic needle
#

There are like 6 rings equivalent to bloodoath

slow marsh
#

That's what I was thinking

low girder
#

idk man nothing jumps out at me @frail fossil

slow marsh
#

Because I'm sure the ring will actually sim higher

frail fossil
low girder
#

maybe a necro could look at your sbs usage lol

stoic needle
low girder
#

fuck i forgot to look at that

frail fossil
stoic needle
#

U should shiv even before consume

frail fossil
#

so i chose to hold the shiv

stoic needle
#

Holding for vendetta and pi is fine

#

Also why don't you cloak the consume pepechortle

frail fossil
#

the shiv i missed like came right at the consume time like i wouldn't be able to get a single cast off after

frail fossil
#

cuz of cd

stoic needle
#

Yeah that's fine, you slam it and then just run out

#

Better than not shivving

slow marsh
#

Wait why are you running out for consume though

#

esp on heroic

frail fossil
#

cuz it was a rando pug with one healer healing Kekl

slow marsh
#

Wait nvm you talking about second consume

plucky briar
#

is crimson tempest capped at 8?

bronze fiber
#

yes

gusty mirage
cerulean nest
#

so really quick, for council prog: BS or EP? Vigor or DS?

frail fossil
gusty mirage
frail fossil
#

not cuz of yo uguys

#

cuz it means i'll play assa in the future

gusty mirage
#

its okay soon all rogue specs will be happy specs

#

even sub's getting some love

frail fossil
#

prayge

gusty mirage
#

and if sub's getting love, you know there's gotta be some other changes coming

#

because blizz doesn't give af about sub OMEGAKEKW

frail fossil
#

i mean outlaw is tuned p well tbf

cerulean nest
#

anyone? i see basically equal representation on that

gusty mirage
#

but I haven't killed mythic council yet cuz my guild's in roster disarray so take my advice with a grain of salt PES_Clown

cerulean nest
#

for sure lol. just rupture up on two, or garrote as well?

pearl bluff
#

Is there a cap, on haste, for assassination? And a general target for crit? ๐Ÿ™‚

ruby birch
gusty mirage
gusty mirage
halcyon zealot
kind talon
#

up to 5 bleeds

#

on counci

cerulean nest
kind talon
#

3 ruptures 2 garrotes or 3 garrotes 2 ruptures

#

otherwise youre spending too much time / gcds / damage on non prio

gusty mirage
#

5 bleeds gives the most energy return without wasting dps on dotting up everything

ruby birch
#

garrote imo is easier and gives you more time to pump envenoms

pearl bluff
#

Ok thanks! Right now I have 26% haste and 19% crit, so was wondering if I should gem/enchant for crit, but I just simmed, and it told me to keep my haste ench on my current ring and gem/ench for crit on new ring. Thanks y'all ๐Ÿ˜„

cerulean nest
#

oh gotcha, thats super helpful

#

so two on prio, two on second, and a garrote or something on third or an attendant basically

ruby birch
#

but again thats imo, rupture might be the better choice, i just find garrote easier

kind talon
#

pretty much

gusty mirage
#

yeah

#

opener w/ subt would be garroting all 3

kind talon
#

personally i will put up a garrote if they are close

gusty mirage
#

just to get some energy rolling

kind talon
#

or a rupture if they will be far

ruby birch
#

some people tank them far

#

we clusterfuck em

kind talon
#

yep

cerulean nest
#

well im gonna go EP/MA/Vigor for prog for now

#

at least to start

kind talon
#

@cerulean nest im a big fan of blindside DS

cerulean nest
#

yeah?

kind talon
#

yep

#

with PB

gusty mirage
#

just tinker around with talents, even if something sims better doesn't mean you'll perform it better ya know? If you're more comfortable with EP/Vigor play EP Vigor

#

they're close enough where your play will make a bigger diff than the talent choices

cerulean nest
#

im totally fine with BS

kind talon
#

ofc end of the day play what u can

#

or what u want to

cerulean nest
#

yeah, i'll see whats up

kind talon
#

ep vigor is literally like

#

10 dps difference on single target to me

#

so it doesnt matter

ruby birch
gusty mirage
#

yeah its chump change, so another talent combo might work better for you

cerulean nest
#

kinda impossible to sim a council style fight though lol

#

with all the extra adds and shit

gusty mirage
#

yeah fuck that fight

halcyon zealot
#

the difference between BS/DS and EP/Vigor is so little (for most people) that playing what is more comfortable and natural to you will net you more dps than the โ€œperfectโ€ build

gusty mirage
#

it's literally balls

kind talon
#

council

#

you just sim singletarget

#

your add damage doesnt matter

#

unless you want to parse

gusty mirage
#

just 300 iq snipe the attendant with a 2cp rupture for full energy ๐Ÿ˜‰

cerulean nest
#

lol i'll give it my best shot

gusty mirage
#

cuz others should be melting it asap

cerulean nest
#

mostly worried about my guild doing mechanics, thats always an issue

kind talon
#

the only things the adds matter for is using fok at 4 targets

#

ofc

cerulean nest
#

okay yeah i was gonna ask

kind talon
#

fok at 4+ targets

#

it only matters during p3

#

but also, if youre running blindside, then dont

cerulean nest
#

really hope they dont ask me to do interrupts

gusty mirage
#

ideally they'd want ranged interrupts because after frieda's dead there's a lot of movement

ruby birch
#

^

gusty mirage
#

and that's asking a lot of melee

kind talon
#

yep

cerulean nest
#

haha wouldnt be the 10th time

#

but yeah we'll see

ruby birch
#

im p sure its like only 3 interrupts

#

idr how often it happens though

gusty mirage
#

put a shaman on backup

#

ez

ruby birch
#

im sure 4 ranged are enough

halcyon zealot
#

we have melee kicks for frieda and ranged kicks for after image

kind talon
#

shaman op

cerulean nest
#

ill try bs/ds fuckit

halcyon zealot
#

and ya shamans are OP for sniping one thatโ€™s gonna go of

hollow escarp
gusty mirage
#

yeah idk why spriests don't interrupt more

#

can't be bothered to stop their mindsear spam?

cerulean nest
#

also does an attendant come out early enough that i should hold CDs on pull until after?

gusty mirage
#

yeah if it comes out early hold CDs until its dead

kind talon
#

because pepega raid leaders and players think that

hollow escarp
#

depends on how fast the boomies kill

kind talon
#

ranged interrupt is a longer cd

#

so melee has prio

#

literally the thought process of my RL

#

"melee always get kicks because they have a shorter cd"

cerulean nest
safe barn
#

guys

gusty mirage
#

it does, but it depends on if the boomies can convoke it down or not

hollow escarp
#

I got called out for playing CT on Council

cerulean nest
#

ah ok

ruby birch
#

we usually have a boomer stand far

gusty mirage
#

if you see it get in range, just hold CDs

hollow escarp
#

can't fix blue parse pepeHands

ruby birch
#

and he presses the convoke button

cerulean nest
#

cool cool

kind talon
#

gg

safe barn
#

the optimal way of using vanish in m+ scenario is to use it when the enh garrote is ending?

gusty mirage
hollow escarp
#

hey, it's buff for doomblade

#

it's not pad

gusty mirage
#

hey I'm all for degenerate padding

kind talon
#

yep

#

-112 dps not pad YEP

hollow escarp
#

68

#

please

safe barn
#

and in pulls do i use it to spread more? like, in general we do 3 mobs with enh gar, if the pull is bigger do we vanish to apply more?

low girder
#

no one's said shit about my CT on sire

gusty mirage
#

I got a 96 parse on hivemind last tier playing m+ talents and traits OMEGAKEKW

midnight mist
#

yo guys in ST is it ever worth to refresh rupture or garotte before pandemic if rupture is going to fall during ur shiv window? if not should u refresh it at the correct time and maybe sit on shiv for a little or refresh it during shiv window

kind talon
#

@hollow escarp

halcyon zealot
gusty mirage
hollow escarp
gusty mirage
#

but only refresh early if it'll fall off in the shiv window

hollow escarp
#

but look at those kill timers

#

my first kill was 10 min lol

#

only 9 min hmm

kind talon
#

most of the players are taking PB

#

im a PB fan

hollow escarp
gusty mirage
#

PB is such ass tbh

kind talon
#

PB is a dogshit talent

#

true

#

but its better ST

safe barn
kind talon
#

and im a fan of ST

safe barn
kind talon
midnight mist
#

ok thanks, is it ever worth to hold on shiv a little to pull energy or go to like 4cp to shiv->env? if so how much time can i hold shiv

gusty mirage
#

I would just shiv on cd

midnight mist
#

even at like 20 energy and 1cp?

gusty mirage
#

its better to have a suboptimal shiv window than ending up missing a cast later in the fight

kind talon
hollow escarp
midnight mist
#

kay and i should try to pull energy and get some cp before shiv get off of cd right?

gusty mirage
#

yeah if you can hold some CP without overcapping energy before shiv comes off CD

midnight mist
#

okay thanks is it a problem if i unfortunatly get to max cp before pressing shiv?

gusty mirage
#

if you're at max CP just shiv anyway

midnight mist
#

okay thanks a lot

safe barn
#

guys

#

zoldyck on legs?

gusty mirage
gusty mirage
safe barn
#

i made my doomblade hast/vers

kind talon
#

nice parse

gusty mirage
#

yeah but I made mine on the shoulders

gusty mirage
#

I can't troll people about doomblade

Shoulder doombladers KEKWW

midnight mist
#

oh yeah last question i think, garotte inside shiv window is fine right?

stoic needle
#

Yes

gusty mirage
#

listen man I had 220 crit/vers shoulders at the time and 226 haste/vers gloves

stoic needle
#

So is rupture

gusty mirage
#

it made sense at the time okay?!

midnight mist
#

oh and also if shiv is going to end and i have 2 or 3 cp should i send a last env?

stoic needle
#

No

grizzled root
#

which legendary should i go for considering i will only do raids with assa

stoic needle
#

Doomblade

can dreadfire and shriekwing not crit anymore?

@balmy condor same for talent?

@frail fossil

frail fossil
low girder
#

it's ok i had a finality all of 9.0.5

frail fossil
#

i can recraft it on hands atm

#

but it's a downgrade

#

until i have 233 shoulder

midnight mist
#

oh yeah i had one last question about envenom uptime, should i play around it ? maybe try to pool some energy to do 2 envenom in a row or something

echo cargo
#

My boy Ion saying rogues need raid utility

hollow escarp
low girder
#

ie no shiv, no vendetta, no flag, etc

#

and dots are up

midnight mist
#

yeah that what i meant i think, like if i pool to 90 i will be able to chain another envenom to get better uptime right?

low girder
#

that's the basic idea, yeah, it just also does the job of pooling for shivs and stuff

#

with the same principle

midnight mist
#

kay thanks

plucky briar
#

at 3 targets, you still don't press FoK for damage?

balmy condor
#

Nop

#

Only to spread poisons on 3 targets

#

Fok is garbage

Hey @prisma monolith buddy you okay? :(

hollow escarp

he is offline Sadge

hazy flame
#

in your opener when you vanish-envenom-mutilate and land on 4cp do you use your last MA global on envenom or go up to 6 cp

hollow escarp
#

mutilate

hazy flame
#

sorry for trinket question btw didnt notice it was in the pins

#

kk

low girder

this is also why you can vanish mut

sinful fable
#

So, reading the FAQ in the pins, we're not holding shiv for anything and literally just shove it in on CD?

balmy condor
#

Yep

#

I should add a note about shiv vend tho

#

We hold shiv to line with vend when theyโ€™re close

sinful fable
#

I am guessing if its close to 3-4 seconds off?

hollow escarp
#

10-12

halcyon zealot
#

i think itโ€™s more like 8-12

sinful fable
#

ah

balmy condor
#

Yeah

#

A max of 12

#

But it usually lines up to be about 10ish

sinful fable
#

ah cool

grizzled root
#

is sub and assa rogue loot spec same?

balmy condor
#

Yep

grizzled root
#

poison bomb or tempest for raids?

balmy condor
#

Bomb for single target no movement, CT for anything more than that

plucky briar
#

another question: where does sbs fit in the opener? Don't see it in the ravenholdt guide

balmy condor
#

First global

#

i've never tried !macro in this channel, is moroes dead?

zenith zinc
#

Should i use crimson tempest on single target? Feels like its just a waste of points and energy at that point, and i barely get any envenoms off

sinful fable
#

hmm, I manage 4.5k dps non buffed (besides poisons) on a dummy, 223 ilvl. feels like I'm doing something wrong :/

zenith zinc
#

If i have it talented for mythics, i mean

drifting cloud
#

you use it on st outshide of shiv windows

shy dust
#

Yes

#

If youโ€™re talented into CT

#

You maintain it outside of shiv

zenith zinc
#

okay

#

thats a pain in the ass lmao

#

but thank you guys

drifting cloud
#

so rae do we reach ct on st point in 9.1

#

maybe one day poison bomb will rise again

shy dust
#

HB will rise

icy ember
#

i hope it changes into an ability

shy dust
icy ember
#

or something that follows the mob around, poison bomb

indigo mulch
#

I wish they would make exsang great again. It's so much fun but so bad outside of extreme haste levels =c

#

I wonder what rogues raid utility will be that Ian talked about.

#

Smokebomb?

echo cargo
#

Probably

strange python
#

When do we get the next cycle of mortregar? Been waiting for doomblade

drifting cloud
#

just force spawn it in twisting

strange python
#

Wait thats possible?

drifting cloud
#

yeah you go layer3 or whatever it needs to be, keep resetting till you get it and just finish first 6

strange python
#

Omg thank you

heavy trail
#

You will have had to completed twisted corridor 1,2 though to do that

#

I guess on at least one toon

sinful fable
#

hmm, both my outlaw and assa sims 5050 without buffs, and on a dummy I manage to hit 4.9k on outlaw but barely breaking 4.5k on assa :/ Is the vanish that big? (Not vanishing cuz dummies are dumb)

wise gull
#

Finally starting to figure out sire

#

this fight has been really fun to learn

#

I feel like I should be doing like 800 more dps on p2 though

indigo mulch
#

There an option to change.

safe barn
#

Can the latency ruin my EP window? Cause even though i sim higher with EP on ST i do more DPS when running BS. (I'm always around 150ms)

stoic needle

waiting for the attendant

yeah assa feels really bad on council during prog

the first attendant shouldn't be touching the boss though

just use the time from pull to first attendant to get your 5 bleeds out, hopefully by that time attendant is dead and you can pop

doesnt look like I'm goofing too hard, or am I missing something?

halcyon zealot
cerulean nest
halcyon zealot
#

yeah i use EP/Vigor on council

#

just feels a lot smoother for me

sinful fable
#

yeah I know, kyrian for now since I dont do anything ultra serious

cerulean nest
#

yeah it was night and day making the change just now

sinful fable
#

any input would be appreciated (except reroll venthyr lulw)

#

oh, to clarify, why I'm wondering is that I sim 4.9k on dummy, ended up on 4.5-4.6 ingame. on outlaw I simmed 5k and ended up on 4.95 :>

#

so I am scratching my head where those 400dps should come from

halcyon zealot
#

well - for one you probably simmed with hero, windfury, mystic touch, etc enabled; which will inflate your sim

grizzled root
#

whats the best potency conduit for raid?

sinful fable
#

i didnt

#

those are no buffs, on dummy

halcyon zealot
#

other than that, theres not much to comment on with what you linked, a log is much more helpfull

sinful fable
#

maybe I should just log me doing rotation on a dummy for 15 minutes and see if someone smarter than me can give me some clarity ^^

halcyon zealot
#

that is 100x easier to analyze than those screenshots :p

sinful fable
#

yeah I know, was mostly wondering if someone saw something horribly wonky ๐Ÿ˜„

#

(DONT SAY KYRIAN)

halcyon zealot
#

hey - someones gotta play kyrian

sinful fable
#

actually... running Master assassin talent but not using vanish at all during those 10minute fights

#

that cant possibly equal 300dps can it?

halcyon zealot
#

lol if youre not using vanish at all ?

#

you wanna line vanish and vend up

sinful fable
#

yeah im not using it at all due to it breaking my detail logging if I do ๐Ÿ˜„

halcyon zealot
#

yeah thats a big dps loss ๐Ÿ™‚ you wanna sync vendetta and vanish together

sinful fable
#

yeah line up vanish with vendetta and shiv

halcyon zealot
#

by either having 4/5 cp and vanish into envenom mut or vanish mut env

sinful fable
#

I technicly know how to use it, but just didnt due to dummys being dummys. just didnt think it was that big

#

but if its big then that would explain it

#

so 10 minutes, that's 5 vanish usages with MA talent that im not using

dawn ivy
#

it wont equal 300, but its certainly a dps increase

sinful fable
#

lets say it equals 150-200

#

or to be fair, lets say 100

#

that would put me within 100-150 dps of simdps. that aint too shabby for an hours work

compact pumice
#

you can combatlog a training dummy and upload to WCL

strange python
#

If youโ€™re not using vanish as a cd then youโ€™re just wearing a high ilvl ring or bracers

#

You might as well not be wearing a leggo

#

If you want to get a good idea of your damage on a dummy with details you should get another player to just hit it that should keep you in combat. Be in the Same group

ahhh, gotcha thx

hard atlas
#

so both my legos are 190 (zoldyck) and (MA), im waiting for soul ashe to make 235, but im ganna be mythic raiding on my rogue, would MA or zoldyck do better?

#

and if i do MA do i take sub talent?

odd hazel
#

im just guessing Zoldyck. since it would be more consistent. ( i think ? ) i guess the crit would be nice from MA.

#

doomblade is our best raiding leggo though.

hard atlas
#

yea i havent gotten it yet sadly

strange python
#

Is it not from torghast

#

Doom

balmy condor
#

I believe so

#

it's easily farmed

strange python
#

Americans can you tell us if itโ€™s up this week

#

If not you can just go into twisting corridors and get it

#

And I would make doom 100% even hold ash for it. Youโ€™ll use it on like every fight other that sire

#

Iโ€™ve just beeen taught that iqd is awesome for sin and now Iโ€™m excited af to try it

#

@balmy condor if I sim iqd does the rogue apl hold the second vend. If I sim 5 mins patch

hard atlas
#

yea its not up this week, ill end up making it this week

strange python
hard atlas
#

yea thats what i ment, ill farm it this week, i just didnt have ashe to make it so far

cerulean nest

man i am struggling on council

havent felt like this on a fight before lol

can you evasion stavros lunge?

no

strange python

Mythic?

cerulean nest

yes

strange python
#

Whatโ€™s going wrong

grizzled root
#

whats the best conduit for raid?

cerulean nest
#

i feel like its just our mechanics which is making my dps ass

#

i get targeted for recital, and the little route we take pulls me out of melee range

#

and if im in melee range I get hit by stavros

#

im wasting time dotting an attendant because it doesnt die instantly

#

so i do a tiny bit of damage to it but feel like im dropping my other bleeds while doing so

#

idk just feels all over the place. im sure practice will settle it down

balmy condor
grizzled root
#

I mean i just started playing assa so i was wondering what others think

compact pumice
odd hazel
cerulean nest
#

basically just chaos the whole time

odd hazel
#

im not sure how it is on mythic but, dumb quesiton. are you cleaving at all?

dense axle
#

hidden blades or CT for Donny prog?

#

mythic

cerulean nest
#

im trying to keep dots on a second target

dense axle
#

I see like equal representation in top logs

odd hazel
#

dont do that

#

unless its diff on mythic its a damage loss to cleave

#

because they just return to full health

ionic kelp
cerulean nest
#

from the conversations ive had in here, its to maintain energy

ionic kelp
#

HB is full on padding lol

dense axle
#

makes sense

#

do you run EP with that?

odd hazel
#

Ah----- you're doing fine from what i'ev seen

#

sucks though if you're getting targeted a lot

dense axle
#

looks like most are running EP

#

so nvm

ionic kelp
#

Ya

dense axle
#

how do you handle P1 adds, I like to line my Shivs up with the cast

#

but youd want to be CTing at the time

#

do you just try and offset it and get CTs in on adds and then shiv after?

odd hazel
ionic kelp
#

No I shiv on CD

dense axle
#

and damn the adds?

#

big pad yo :P

grave dock
#

P1 adds are pure padding

ionic kelp
#

Just fok CT adds

cerulean nest
ionic kelp
#

Then envenom dickhead Donny

cerulean nest
#

so i switched halfway through

dense axle
#

you FOK at 3+ or 4+?

#

thats prolly in pins, sorry

balmy condor
#

3 to apply poisons, 4 to generate

dense axle
#

A+, ty sir

ionic kelp
#

yup and thereโ€™s always enough mini adds

dense axle
#

we're lookign at getting close to a kill this week so I wanted to be dialed in completely

ionic kelp
#

I think when you get to the last two cleansings you might only have 3 adds

cerulean nest
#

i mean is sub with the stilletto conduit a horrible alternative to sin on council?

#

the flow just overall felt icky and inefficient as sin

loud niche
#

sims show that my ST is stronger as 3320021 but top perf sin rogues are using 2310021 on sludge?

stoic needle
#

i figured out that on SLG if you sbs grashaal a split second before you pull you can get a spike up on him and on kaal at the beginning of the fight, pretty much every sbs after that will give you 4 or 5cp which is pretty sick

dense axle
#

@stoic needle omg, thats a hot tip. Lots of extra CP that way

stoic needle
#

your sbs basically has to be the thing that initiates combat because grashaal becomes not interactable while he's in the air

ionic kelp

i dont get that fight heh.. i still only blue parse it ~_~

depending on your groups dps sometimes it scruff the numbies if you kill before, or way after 4th pillar

is HB and CT an actual dps increase for pad on sire?

#

for doomblade slot i do hands correct?

#

or shoulders?

dawn ivy
#

if you have no shot of getting SLG shoulders, shoulders

#

if there is any shot you can get slg shoulders, hands

hard atlas
#

makes sens ty

drifting cloud
#

even if you have no shot at shoulders it still might be hands

#

just depends on your vault gear/or if you have pvp stuff

hard atlas

doesnt shoulders give more main stat?

brave vector
#

man i've no idea what im doing wrong with zoldycks

hard atlas
#

^^^

#

i feel the same

brave vector
#

have no issues doing around 6.5k overall with MA in dungeons but i cant break 6k with zoldycks

hard atlas
#

zoldycks seems like it doesnt do a dame thing

drifting cloud

shoulderds and hands give the same amount of stats

Is sin pretty comparable to outlaw in m+s? And we would use zoldyk right for m+? I tried out outlaw and just didn't like the feel

strange python

anyone know if we use shadowcore oil and phantom fire potion or sharpening stones and agi pots for ST??

drifting cloud

theyre all super close doesnt really matter

but if youre doing the venthyr pot cheese on pull you probably wanna phantom fire

and if you arent and dont like variance just use stones and agi

you can sim it too

lol ok, im still not used to not stacking mastery

What's optimal stats iyo?

hard atlas

all my sims keep goping haste/crit

#

so now after re simming cuz i just got 2 peices haste my most needed now and then crit again

stoic needle
#

haste and crit are usually good for ST, crit and mastery for AOE. vers is always decent

hard atlas

so in M+ what do you aim for? just much crit mastery you can get? wouldnt that make us lack on boss

that feeling when you get passed up on SLG shoulders because a boomie wants to "upgrade" from his vers/mastery 220's to 233 crit/vers shoulders...

hazy crater

I mean.. thats a 13 ilvl upgrade

loud niche
#

yeah, i'm also using 220's

#

and they're actually BiS for me, they are not for him, I'd wager a pretty penny that 220 mast/vers sims higher

but boomie feelycraft

hazy crater

super feelycraft and probably incorrect

low girder

yeah you'd be incorrect

novel frost

is Zoldy lego good in Blood council progress?

steady sinew

idk maybe :9

not really, would use doomblade

Zoldycks decent for niklaus 0-50 burn

yup cause we struggling 10% less ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

i mean i simmed our own boomkin and he gained +20

ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

and those were 226s

i mean i can show ya the sims, unless i drop the IQD down to never proc he's losing dps on them. and if i did that, i would gain even more from them than him :S ยฏ_(ใƒ„)_/ยฏ

limber lion
#

Did you also sim gems/enchants?

#

Because IQD relies on having your 2 best stats as highest

#

Changing one piece can mess that up.

hazy crater
#

yep

could just link the sim

sounds unlikely that a 13 ilvl upgrade would be a dps loss

you tell me why raidbots is wrong kekw

Hey so I'm coming back to rogue after a bit of a break. IQD is apparently great for us? I'm just curious why its so good an what is the optimal way to use it? On CD as long as I'm getting a stat buff from it? Line it up with Vendetta? Any advice?

you want to line with vend and get crit from it

when is it going to be fixed in the sims

my guild reprogging xymox apparently, ruined a good parse for me YEP

low girder
ionic fox
#

okay so question. I was pumping hard on sludge with Elab plan and Vigor. I went with it cause even Non PI logs are running it. When did it overtake blindside and deeper on ST?

#

Is it just cause sludge is a short fight?

gusty mirage
#

more on demand damooj

#

to maximize the pillars

ionic fox
#

ye also i see it on multiple other ST fights

balmy condor
#

it's just more pooling and better burst

#

that's all it is

low girder
#

yeah it doesn't ever overtake on pure ST

gusty mirage
#

@balmy condor I kinda want you to look through this log and see where I could improve but I'm also scared to expose myself as a fraud

ionic fox
#

what aabout darkvein?

low girder
#

darkvein isn't ST

#

you'd take it on cleave. huntsman, inerva, probably SLG but i played outlaw

#

that kind of thing

#

sire too if it's farm

ionic fox
#

people running it on hungering also

#

without PI

balmy condor
#

yeh those people are clowning

low girder
#

yep

ionic fox
#

but they are rank 5 xD

balmy condor
#

so?

low girder
#

good players can pick bad talents

#

see: outlaw

balmy condor
#

parses are like 10% correct talents

low girder
#

there's top 10 sire parses with HB

#

i have 0% confidence that's the right pick

ionic fox
#

thats just pad

#

cause after reclear dont need extra p3 dam

low girder
#

no like, i have 0% confidence that's the right pick for pad

ionic fox
#

HB?

low girder
#

i would bet money CT is better

#

in every case

ionic fox
#

ohhh you can pad really hard p1 lol

low girder
#

not really

#

you get one 12k fok

#

per add

ionic fox
#

i mean i dont see any top players running hb

low girder
#

literally the top log on sire

#

is HB

#

for sin

#

public, anyway

ionic fox
#

oh forgot to swap boss

#

lol

low girder
#

point is, talents matter less than playing well

ionic fox
#

well that guy got PI plus necro owns p2 dam and that prob when he got pi

hazy crater
#

well if you want to count that out I think just like 2 ranks below is a venthyr with HB and no PI

#

if I recall correctly

ionic fox
#

true

hazy crater
#

meme talent but if you play good you can parse

low girder
#

i'm enjoying the PB% going down every week lol

ionic fox
#

i mean hb did 307k for him

#

thats some meme pad but guess it works lol

low girder
#

and if you look at esra's CT it was 12% of his dmg. pure breakdowns don't really work out well.

#

my point is, EP isn't better on 1 target. doesn't mean you can't parse with it though.

ionic fox
#

ye ye

stoic vale

i want to try to play assa in m+ this week because of the r.io challenge, which talents are the play and is doomblade or MA leggo viable? dont have zoldyk

if you won't make zoldyck MA is fine

i wouldn't do doomblade

I simmed it before hand and it was a 83 dps gain over playing WPS + fractures

SF is solid ST

cuz of gemstones me thinks

i just meant WPS vs fractures

hazy crater

SF sims better for me nowadays

even on ST

low girder
#

interesting

gusty mirage
#

it was close

#

SF vs WPS like a ~8 dps diff on top gear?

hazy crater
#

it is super close but SF is just better when you add targets so

probably the difference of having a 213 WPS vs 200 fractures

throw garrotes and ruptures up on the big adds, probably wouldn't bother on the small ones

at least on darkvein, they live for like 5s
