is doomblade worth?
and i think thats a problem
cause if there's 2 extremely good trinkets for that are for every class, those 2 will be played by everyone
after a tier full of skulkers wings and stone legion heraldry i'm fine with it
they'll probably all get nerfed some before they go live so that they're all roughly equal
its not like if you didnt get dreadfire you lost like 100 dps
the difference between each is small
some of the best ones come from the first few bosses
when the vault exists i dont think it's a huge problem if there's trinkets that every class wants
i just fear that the ones like the one from the screenshot above are so much better than all of the others there is no choice to be made
yea.
the "until cancelled" part of the decanter definitely won't stay
it'll probably have a lower ppm
if wearing that one means getting +200 dps over others just cause theres a downside ill be mad
don't think I like the mechanic of that trinket
I thought it would be like hateful chain
but you don't get positive effect
i think it's going to be way easier to stay above 50% hp than you think
when low hp
ofc
majority of the time we are full hp
but I'm thinking of situation where that can work against 
funny enough that one is my least favorite
how much haste is too much haste?
it could be good execute, ijust hope "spawning a nerubian" has no potential for buggy pets
until canceled is placeholder for X seconds
588 crit 756 haste 178 Mastery 199 verse are my stats right now. should i swap some shit around to get more mastery?

top gear enchant/gem sim, not stat weights
then there you go
i think this is the best trinket next tier easily and i think the most optimal way to play with it is to make sure your highest stat is actually your worst stat so the downside is minimal

mastery 
you nonbelievers shunned my prophecy
soon you will all be stacking mastery just like me
mastery breakpoint stonks rising master poisoner in my sights

probably just on haste and call it a day
but imagine having -619 haste thats like ff14 gcd levels 0 energy regen.
Doubt
u would just put it on haste
This is literally ashvanes remastered.
and play ep vigor
you mean EP ds
deeper?
vigor gets worse the more haste you have
maybe
it's a fact
that's why deeper sims better as venthyr
ye
yeah ep vigor is like a 35-40 dps loss over bs/ds for me as venthyr
compared to u necro gamers who report 10-15dps changes
yuh
DS doesn't feel that much slower than vigor
idk
vigor on 2 target cleave sure feels fast but
i didn't really "feel" a difference between DS and Vigor in st
Technically it is a bit slower since you need one extra CP to finish but it shouldn't be that big difference either.
people just like to complain about sin's pacing
it's really not a big deal whatsoever
i mean yeah sin is slow regardless of vigor or DS
if u want a faster spec just play something else 
imagine
but nah
MAKE SIN FASTER 
BRING BACK CORRUPTION 90% HASTE SIN
meanwhile, outlaw exists
in the same class
anyone have any idea why my hc inerva gloves sim much better then hc sun king gloves for patchwerk ST? when haste sims the highest and mastery the lowest for me
link the sim
can i do it here?
ye
+1...
one is 226
yea thats mythic
oh, are you comparing the 2nd and 3rd line?
because secondary stats dont matter
these are my stat weights
unless it’s mastery..

even if it's mastery bro
mastery is bis
nah i mean like changing one item worth of secondaries will do nothing
but there is a 35 dps difference between the same ilvl gloves and the one that looks worse is better
heavily doubt
i did too, but seems like people are using it in oj parses without PI
oj?
95%+
i mean, i certainly havent been able to get oj since the spec got big. i've been around a 90 parse mostly
at this point i think kill times have a bigger impact on getting a 95+ than any arrangement of secondary stats
though, i also dont have 233 weps
wrathstone gives mainstat, not secondary
hence why i was curious enough to come here :3
i got oj hungering by making sure I outdps the heal from consume
youc an get 99s without 233 weapons
i did some calculations and knew i could outdps the ticks
i know that name from somewhere. wait who are you? i dont usually chill in the sub channel
idk im kinda a lurker around here
yeah, im sure, but you tell me what im doing wrong lol, i feel like im playing mostly optimally. maybe im wrong tho
oh yea
changing those gloves is making you get a different stat result from iqd and it's a dps loss
one sec
haste become my highest stat if i swap
in fact i think cev just did get a 99 without getting PI and i dont think he has 233's but i could be wrong i suppose
yeah for venthyr haste iqd is much worse than crit
i see thank you
sorry guys if this has been asked. but whats the best pvp lego for assasa atm?
@keen cedar if i swap all of your gems and enchants to crit those 226 gloves are a 49 dps upgrade
i could use a 190 trinket and still parse 95 percentile
doesnt make it good
one trinket will not be the difference between your ability to parse a 95 or not
I wouldn't be able to I need every piece of gear I can get. Im struggling to get oranges on fights i need weapons
no but it could get me away from IQD which feels just awful
IQD
ok so i always wanna try to have crit as my highest stat with IQD as venthyr?
tx
just sim it
imagine wanting to get away from the bis trinket 
but crit iqd is very strong yes
yes
makes gearing a headache though
no 233?
i didnt know iqd was bis in slot i hope i get it from my vault
i only have 226
ok thank you so much guys i was way to dumb to figure this one out on my own
MA is a really good one to enable kills through burst. But if you're doing 2s and it's versus a team you don't think you'll be able to burst down Doomblade would enable you to DPS more. Sephuz is also good, especially in 3s vs some comps. If you are Orc and have Sephuz you can't basically die inside a stun, which is super good.
yeah, but sometimes mine hits haste and then im like.... i can't believe you've done this
its ok u dont have to do that 4 me
do u rup and bleed all 3 guys on council to pad details meters + energy
or just 2
asking for a friend (me)
i know
2
oof, and when i use the trinket's macro so i get the stats, and i still dont get the stats, i cry everytime.
ty i am new to sin i have many simple question
just rupture/garrote 2 of the 3
Are you using the Weakaura?
oh i remember this guy omr, he was the dude saying he's the best rogue in NA at sub and assassination, top 100 otl or some such
yep! says it will give execute
im a humble guy I wouldnt say that nor do I believe it but i cant stop my friends from believing in me
And is your macro something like /use [@self] Infernal Quantum Device?
I think it's actually @player or something else
Im thankful ive never had to use IQD this tier for monk or rogue
my highest council killis 80 parse i will use todays tips and get higher ty!
I'm just surprised it's so good for Assassination and so bad for Outlaw tbh
both time my vault has shown a 226 IQD was right after i already got BiS trinkets
IQD is kind of BIS though for Assa
yeah, it's something similar, not on atm to check
IQD is very very good
whispyr, make IQD stop giving me haste ever pls?
how do you all have so much crit to be able to use iqd 
i have the gem things from venari because i hate myself, so i get lots of crit from gems/chants
i mean i also have literally everything gemmed enchanted crit 
oof
lol
lmao
iqd is still 2nd bis for necro 
but gearing for it is a lot easier yeah
i just became a 6 gem andy this week
i’ve been surviving off 226 hateful chain/phial for a few weeks now.. i really should farm a IQD this week
i really don’t wanna open that can of worms tho
i have like 10 of those gem things total
they're unique
i too have a socketed 235 akaari

y i k e s
i mean probably not better than sin
seems to be on par at the moment
are you running double potency theotar
i am
well first, stop that
its worse than wasteland propriety
and token of appreciation is bugged and takes you out of stealth
run double potency nadjia if you must run double potency
i was following infexious guide
i like ep/vigor but i havent been able to run bs/ds yet
it's basically "do you like blindside?"
you should also stop doing that
also stop FOKing on 3t
infexious is known for spreading incorrect information in his videos based on his opinion etc
infexious rogue guides more like infexious not very good information guides
much better to come here with questions
am I rite
infexious was a community figure here before that means something
so for m+ should i go double potency?
and then he decided to start a lengthy youtube series of bullshit
always gotta respect ur elders
or just nadjia with lashing scars?
I don't respect anyone who says dumb shit regularly
no you go theotar lashing wasteland propriety
I mean double potency nadjia is perfectly fine
much appreciated guys ❤️
it was infuriating to get pulled out of stealth before pull
i find the haste from thrill seeker less impactful than the big mastery from soothing shade
but sure it's fine
it's not placebo if it sims better 
math dont lie!
5 dps better
Can you loot leggo powers from twisting corridors?

yes
any tips on it? is it a lower chance?
the 100% chance? 😛
ah ok, so it has to be layer 3 and up?
correct
gotcha thanks!
fucked by what exactčy
it's not quite 100%
just very high
it's like 98%
anyone else have a bunch of respect for people who get 10 pis and are able to handle all that haste optimally
no
not even a little bit
I feel tainted when I get PI
you think its just simple getting rank 1 with 10 buffs and a bunch of PIs?? do you think you can go from(flying economy to being strapped into an f-16 fighter jet handling 5G's of energy without passing out? think again. A normal guy wouldnt be able to handle PI's like that.Why do you think you see players with 5-6 buffs parsing lower than no buff gamers? They are passing out from the goddam speed. I see a 10 PI log guy and I don't see a chump, I see a veteran and you should too.

I always laugh when I see no-PI gamers outranking those PI whores
i literally wrote that bro @drifting cloud

based
sin rotation is not hard
to handle 10 PIs
you're just gonna cry on all that overcapped energy
its like that random post someone linked in my guild
from ions ilvl comments let me find it
why do people care so much about ilvl parses?
because ilvl is holding them back
that applies to myself as well
so its only fair to compare to same ilvl people
as I don't have access to 233 gear
but it's not like you can't get purple parses
or even 95+
with like 220+

it's good to see if you're performing well for your ilvl on a newer character, but at the end of the day how useful information can be is based on how you use it right
but most people on low ilvl don't even try, don't log or are just boosted to get some starter gear
hardmode: ilvl parse with lower weapons than anything else
true
like me 
hard mode? that was like my first half of the tier 
226/220 gang now
purty happy with it
but yeah even with that and a scuffed ass trinket (223 flayedwing) if we had actually killed sire on that 5% pull i was on pace for at least an 85 in full execute setup
shitty high ilvl flayedwing gang 
"frankly, that's a skill issue"
I had a 220 flayed for so long
We can just take everyone with 2 233 weapons and make them share
jk 75 
prolly wouldn't be correct anyway since it was a wipe
esp with peeps getting fed PI like heroin addictts
Doom or MA leggo for PvP ?
Cheers
gl
I have had a 220 dagger since like week 2 was MH than oh of course
Looking at your own gameplay and improving by practice and hard work is not as easy as saying "Well I'm full 226 but I don't have 233 weapons so I can't possibly be compared to those guys"

Is Zolds the play if taking CT on Huntsman? Switched from PB to CT after reading the discussion on it yesterday. Felt like I had very little chance to actually envenom because of the extra dot maintenance.
Talking HC so shade impact is probably much smaller than mythic.
i was just kidding
do you even target shades?
Haha fair.
idk I got a decent heroic parse at 215 with EP MA Vigor PB
if that didnt work i probably would play zoldyck
cause i always hold vendetta for dmg increase
also im talking pad perspective
It's a between tier "social" alt raid, so yeah if I'm not killing shades we're wiping.
and hard swap to dogs when they are execute
shades should never be a problem
if you let them get stacks
Yeah I blasted last week using the same set up but thought I'd change it up this week. Still did mid 6k dps over all, but curious if I gimped myself by not using Zold instead.
7.4k last week with PB. 6.something this week using CT. So I'm guessing the weird thing is using CT haha.
pm me them logs dirtykook?
I mean, we're clearing the fight fine. It's just social reclears. I'm just one of the only in our group not running an alt so trying to blast as hard as I can.
So wowhead is telling me to use only Zoldyck Insignia for most bosses, but is that really the best for ST?
oh thats embarassing'
i couldnt find it
LOL
i was looking at the guides on the pints
not the most egregious blindness we've seen :P
Sorry!
So we really never wanna ambush outside of blindside proc?
i'm reading the ravenholdt guide rn
Yes, Mutilate generates higher amount of combo points on average and has two chances to apply poisons
are you keeping your bleeds up?
yeah
You shouldn't have any energy issues on cleave if you keep your dots up
Thats just the pace of assassination
but sometimes i gotta wait
tfw no fury warrior keyboard mashing
is it priority dps gain to multidot in council
keep dots up (5 I think) and you're good
i cant tell if trying to is a dps loss or not lol
thats 4 no?
what talent setup is it we run for sludge? vigor instead of deeper? even as venthyr?
and EP right?
did you use the new tops and tricks on council
?
no
what about with elusiveness
fuck
with elusiveness you can
what was the weird thing on denny that you can't cloak in last phase?
but you can in heroic or p1?
massacre
Does rupture stay on Remornia during Massacre? Or nah?
yes it does
oh okay thanks 🙂
lower details refresh rate, and covenant effects
how do i do that
Hello,
What addons/weak auras do people use to manage their DOTs, espcially in M+?
sire p1 lag isn't pc related
plater
weakauras for current target
plater nameplates for aoe
Been playing assassin in m15s and gotta say it's been refreshing since picking it up. After I took the time to properly set up my plate settings and buff visibility, it was hella smoth
Thanks @balmy condor, i guess i might need to change how plater works a bit to reduce the visible debuffs to just mine or something
Just blacklist the buffs you don't want to see. No need to track deadly and numbing poison, or phial
I track gar/rup/CT and I debate on deadly
that's literally it
oh sbs as well
since I'm necro
although I think I should track vend maybe
but yeh
shouldn't track a lot of stuff
just clutter
god plater has so many options
so hard to work out how to set customer debuff visibility
I asked this the other night but didnt get an answer. is there a way in Kui to disable nameplates for specific mobs? i want the waiters' plates in council gone
I found plater a bit much also just use KUI and do what whisper does whitelist what i want. I put my stuns in blacklist and theys how up with big debuffs ont he right side of the plate
Why do folks put for like at least keys 1-9, need venthyr or whatever. I mean I get that it makes it easier but if everyone in the group around 200 ilevel plays even average it should be easy to time a 10. Oh well lol.
Hmm I suppose I will try to get in guild working on my 240th app the last 30 minutes or so all declines or not picked haha....
Maybe I should try one with the "join follower runs!" and stuff lol ; I am sure that's pretty @#)*(@ humiliating lol
I just had the most cursed last pull of the night on Sire oh god
I rebound my scroll wheel from zoom to interact/extra action button a while back
and my camera has just been at max since without issue
but right before pull something randomly zoomed me in until nearly 1st person
and i somehow survived all the way until we wiped p3
LOL
ive never been so scared
it's not their pc, the fight is just shit
Got it all working, thanks @balmy condor
np
I think you underestimate how much some people struggle with clearing some content.
I think Home button will force first person. The trick is to make sure you still have zoom bound somewhere haha. I kept Ctrl wheel for camera.
Sure sucks if you are decent trying to get into a key but I suspect you are right considering that in some cases I dunk on players 10 ilevels higher which is kinda weird as ass on lower keys
my pc is struggling too
need 10s now and they all want 210+ ahah oh well will keep on trying
Yes I have an SD 11 though I have already timed an 11 SD sadly so will do that was hoping for some lucky invites and then it became kind of like an obsession to see how many declines. We are up to 322 now 🙂
Yeah it sucks to push a key you've already timed but sometimes it's your only way up.
esp as melee
Worst case it tanks into a 10. Or you get gear and valor and a 12/13 of a key
Chances are you'll clear that key long before you snag an invite.
Better to get reps in anyways
I generally search for about 5 minutes Max before pushing my own.
if I complete the key and change to something else it will be different right ? (If I sti
even it fails ?
Ok so that probably is a better option lol
Have to complete it though
But i do gotta agree that people often don't know what they are looking for. Posting 13 keys with a note saying 1300io or higher - You're just advertising you want a carry.
my pc struggles too and it's a pretty decent one. the fight isjust poorly made on P1
Sire p1 lag is a mechanic
@torn atlas Yes I have done pretty much all 9s and some 10s/11s and only applying 10-12 and a lot of them have lower IO than I do so pretty much all looking for easy carries. These are the ones that don't just fill up right away.
You're also.competing against others in queue
^
Like they could have better gear and io
pugging as a dps is just sad
Nothing with you
level up a dh
get ksm
link ksm on your rogue and get into keys
that's what I've been doing tbh
Well most of them probably do or these guys just wait for that lol
Thatx what I did lol
never really tanked before haha but it's a though 🙂
+3 key? link ksm
+5? ksm
+2? better be 1600 io & ksm
^
But if you want to push as a rogue, do your own key and grind it out
yeah, and that kinda goes as a dps in general
there's an ocean of mages, imagine being the one chosen to be in a key
All 18s but a 4 dos
I spent over an hour in a +10 SD.. I don't think I can handle SD anymore tbh
Most of the fellers in SD don't understand the grand overseers and mistdancers etc and how important it is to make sure you handle them.
Ok true
SD is just a nightmare
I've never had problems with SD
Plaguefall on the other hand.............
way too many dps standing on the canisters when they're about to explode
man you can just scoot past that shit
You know the room after Beryllia where you really don't wanna tank the mobs INSIDE that room before the gauntlet?
YES
The tank wanted to uh... tank INSIDE the room
kekw
pride spawned
oh geez
and then he pulled the other mobs along with it
lmao
MDI strats
I think your issue is spawning pride there 😅
do prideful + gauntlet 
oh and then on Kaal
im learning storming never did dungeons with it yet this expansion yet lol... yikes
The healer, ele sham & dh got blown off with squall because they couldn't run to tank in time
sounds like you had a great time in that sd
oh man I sure did
the only key i got invited too was never. I think we +2ed an 8 and then just tagged along because they enjoyed me haha...
Best part was, tank somehow.. idk how, but somehow got Kryxis stuck in a corner during the fight
First 8 I applied too I get invited go figure lol will just practice storming
Healer had the charge on him, we stacked & healer just flopped lol
Probably better anyway to get a few storming runs in so I don't get mad it's an irritating thing 🙂
You can cloak the tornado and just stand in it 😄
True.. and I do 🙂
I think to celebrate my all 10s hopefully soon I will change my rogue's hairstyle 🙂
yikes me and 2 other dps they both 215+ and I am 202 haha
doh.. the guy's key was something else after everybody was at the dungeon lo
I'm trying to set my whitelist filter to only show my garrote,rupture but
those are the only spells I'm seeing???
I can't search anything either and I can't figure out how to set it up on elvui
I have a 60% keyboard so it's not even possible for me to hit home by accident. I definitely rebound camera immediately after that though
whats the start point for diminishing returns for secondary stats for sin rouge
cheers im trying to decide whether or not more haste or mast is worth it on me
that's what sims are for
true but I also just wanted to know more on DRs for stats
cant go wrong with nightfae right
wait is this for real?
you can evasion the massacre?
No
nope, fae is fine
not really optimal at anything
Used the bell in a couple keys tonight
It kinda pumps
I like the short CD
I'm not convinced it's better than iqd, but at least it always gives stats
Iqd and bell together though 
Crit iqd to get up a bunch of dots then bell to make them pump
Is doomblade the best current legendary for pve assassination?
for 1 target
why are people picking EP and Vigor over BS and DS in Mythic Sludge?
I can't seem to find this info, maybe I'm just blind. But for multi target dotting what is the minimum amount of time a mob needs to live for it to be worth?
we don't refresh if it has about 10-15 seconds left
You have predictive timers for how long mobs live?
it's something you get a feel for with time
So it's always worth to apply rupture to a target even if it dies in 5 seconds?
we don't refresh if it has about 10-15 seconds left
So dont apply/refresh when it dies in 5 seconds
Maybe I should give a more specific example, is it worth to DoT the cabalists on Sire?
if they live more than 10-15 seconds, yes
Okay, I understand thanks
np
!guide
read the ability
it applies both poisons
shiv rank 2 increases poison damage
for 9 seconds
all fine 🙂
i hate how wowhead sometimes incorporates the higher ranks and sometimes do not
but lets say its something that needs soothing, do we take the dps loss?
or just say fuck it
and blow the shiv anyways
you save for soothes
other classes can handle it though
druids can soothe, hunters can as well
but if the mechanic requires a soothe, you should have the shiv ready for it
Gotta use the little utility we have ^^
warrior does some rly nice aoe damage iirc
i mean yeah we do
warrior aoe is quite good yeah
but that doesnt get you into keys
rogue, more specifically outlaw is just meta and meta specs are usually picked over others in the group finder
i do 0 dps if i cant walk into the dungeon
but rogue isn't fotm
rogues will find problems getting into groups too, fire mage on the other hand... well lets say have a very easy time
nah
hes like 220
downvoted out the ass
because he was like
"we need matchmaking"
i see this post.
https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/n18y20/dps_struggle_is_real/
and this comment:
Ion was talking about dps wasnt he?
i did only read the tl;dr version of the interview on wowhead
i mean if you think about it, its just like real life
He was entirely talking about people thinking 20 ilvls gave people 70% more dmg
lack of skill was about ilvl scaling and he was right
Not really relevant
Exactly mata
not that you arent unqualified, more that there are just more qualified people than you
a 210 can definitely do a +5
but if theres a party of 220s trying to farm valor
im taking those 3 first
the only "real life" connection is that r.io is a system to tell people how much time you spend in dungeons
so more or less "job experience"
but it does not tell you if you did a good/bad job or your job at all
for sure
From that, i get a question.
Do I get +score from doing a key I have done before?
yes
very tiny amounts if you have a better time
r.io measures the highest key you did (in time)
so every time you do a higher one you get higher score
i think he means if its the same key level
if your time is better in the same key level you also raise your score
Question answered.
I simply do not get more score for doing the exact same dungeon again with same time and same difficulty
r.io also does not give you score based on affix
it does not care what affix you do, it just cares about the dungeon level
Yes ofc. Thank you guys then I will keep pushing difficulty and time instead of quantity
thats why people just play the keys in push weeks and never learn to deal with any affix outside of the easy ones
thats why i made the link to "you don't know how well they did their job or if they did at all"
yeah for sure
its like autopiloting at your job vs making a difference
its hard to tell
Yeah.
Hire the guy and pray 🙏
i am not sure if blizz fixes some of those issues in their r.io system
it sounded like they do it slightly diffrent
Imagine getting more or less personal score from avoidable damage taken, mitigation done, over healing etc.
That sounds like a nightmare
😅 Very kind of you
As a guy trying to get better as mistweaver in m+ I thank you for teaching me the hard way
can anyone offer any hints/tip of how to improve my shiv window? I only seem to be able to get off 2 envenoms during it.
could someone please paste the macro for putting flaggel and vendetta please c:
casting them together at the same time
probably don't want to macro those, they have different cds
just for my opener
Doesn't really matter how many Envenoms you get. Just pool on Envenom and it'll sort itself out.
good point though
Even then you don't want to macro them together.
sorry what do you mean just pool on envenom?
Outside of cooldowns and Shiv windows you build to max-1 combo points but don't press Envenom instantly. Instead you pool energy to until you're about 30 energy away from max.
Then you generate to max-1 again and then pool again.
You pool energy up to like 30 before cap, then envenom, build cp and pool again
To strech out the envenom buff
Because poison procs are a good part of assassins dmg
That's not the only reason, not even the main reason.
But yeh, that's one of many reasons why you want to pool.
But pooling is very minmaxy and you'll be just fine smashing keys.
I was under the impression I have to get as many envenoms out during shiv, at the moment I can only manage 2, 3 with vendetta
I heard the main reason was to unspeed the playstyle so you could finish your favourite tv show
unless I misunderstanding
This is incorrect.
It really doesn't matter. Sometimes you don't crit with your generators
Sometimes you do
yeah I was noticing that
The only thing that matters is pressing Shiv on cooldown
Not the amount of Envenoms during it.
oh my word, I've been doing it wrong all this time
been holding shiv until 4/5 CP and about 100 energy
Yeh, don't do that
You pool energy and build combo points before Shiv comes off cooldown.
Once it's off cooldown, you press it instantly
Sims keep showing EB/Vigor is worse for me than DS/BS should I just follow the sim here?
Yes, try also simming cleave add and 2t to see how they fare up. EP/Vig is more burst and gets more value when you introduce multiple targets.
Okay, thank a lot
EP/Vig for me only 17dps behind in ST
so lazy me gonna go EP/Vigor 
2 target seems EP/DS is best for me rn
what settings on raidbots do people use for m+? 4/5 targets 1 min?
dslice
Dungeonslice yep
interesting
Is it?
tc have optimised for dslice as well
just hear people using different, a lot of conflicting info
Rogues use dungeonslice cause we optimize sims for it
A lot of other classes don’t support it
right I'll start using that
Started Daddy D Mythic progression and just some questions on what rogues can do to help out our healers in P1.
Does feint and/or cloak work on painful memories, blood price and burden of sin?
Does feint and/or evasion (if facing beam start point) work on night hunter charge if soaking beam?
Cloak blood price, painful memories are feint, burden of sin cant do anything
Evasion does nothing
Feint doesn’t work either afaik
night hunter just flat out kills you
even if feint worked
It does that much damage
you can cloak the aoe that the painful memories in p1 do
ok. so feint does nothing to help with dmg from soaking beam from night hunter charge and also does nothing during blood price if cloak is on CD. bummer. thanks for tips.
venth still best for ass?
Feint does work on cleansing pain though if you're ever doubling up with someone on one of them
Necro is still pretty good for raids if you wanna run it
NF and kyrian also pretty solid too
theres no real bad covs for assa
afaik
necro with doomblade is fun
I would not recommend kyrian as it's like 3rd best at any specific thing
At most
Jk it's last at everything
yeah i wouldnt reccomend it but like it doesnt make the spec not work
venthyr druid 
the first non-NF druid on M denathrius
is ranked like 4.1k
there is only 11 non NF druids iirc
!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
well necro can actually be pretty decent for feral
venthyr is good on paper but in practice youre just not NF
on paper you're just not NF where the burst it provides is too valuable for current tier
Hopefully there is lesser burst period bosses increasing viability for a lot of covenants for a lot of specs
yeah
its also like
convoke is braindead too use
no thinking needed, just press it and you do big dmg
venthyr as an exampel can do HUGE fuckups on druid
Hey Guys new as assa i did my first raid MM 2 day ago my parse is very low
Exemple on destroyer MM
Can you guys tell me what im doing wrong
- The fight is very long, so it's very hard to parse well on it.
- You are very undergeared.
You are competing against people who are 227-229 ilvl
And you're 220 ilvl yourself.
If you're at the top of your guilds meters, I think you're doing perfectly fine.
Was just about to say, this is not very low
Your ilvl parse is 82 and you’re beating ur ‘competition’ on the meter from the looks of it
But I have to say
Your opener is the messiest I have ever seen
Okay, I'll list a few things:
1. Your ilvl is very small, so it's hard to compare against people who kill the boss 2 minutes quicker and with 9 more item levels.
2. Your opener is awful. You should read a guide or look at what other people are doing. Pretty much everything you do on your opener is flawed. I'll provide more context down below.
3. You let your bleeds drop a few times. Always make sure to have your bleeds up at all times. Are you aware of the pandemic mechanic?
4. Do not let your energy overcap. When you are about to do mechanics, use all of your energy so you don't cap it during the mechanic.
So, to go in depth in number 2
You cast Slice n Dice too late, you use Flagellation as your first gcd so it doesn't get any value from previous combo points, you apply rupture before garrote, you use IQD in the very beginning, you use Shiv before applying all bleeds and you NEVER used Vanish
This is your opener
WoW thx !
I will try to fix dat
I think my opener is correct for necrolord too
Thx @limber lion !

It is quite possibly the worst opener I've ever seen (no offence), but still you managed to do completely fine, when taking into account the long length of the fight and poor ilvl.
Goes to show again how little openers matter in the long run.
But at least the opener is very simple to fix. Just do the correct rotation on a target dummy a few times and it'll stick.
The longer the fight the less it matters. It’s also the spec that makes the opener forgiving in the long run
I mean, if u screw up your combustions as mage, you’re screwed for instance. As sin, just keep bleeds up and remember to hit some cd’s and good to go
Yup
is there any reason to farm ash now? or just forget about torghast til 9.1?
have 4 235 legs already
Well
Might be coming some legendaries you want to craft
For rogues it takes like 10-20 mins total to do two runs anyway so just make it a speedrun challenge and you're fine to do them every week
Too bad Torghast is such a fucking tedious chore to do every week
torghast easy
Or do it with a tank friend and just pick offensive powers. Goes real quick that way even if you have to clear more (mostly make it brain dead)
I detest it so badly, excuses me for my saltiness
I don't know about you but I think people have a tendency to exaggerate how much they dislike Torghast, it's more the idea of "having to go there" but usually they don't mind it so much when they've started. It's like another world quest that is a bit more engaging.
A shitload more annoying I’d say
i mean right now there is low possibility some leg will become top1 in something, but in 9.1 the ash will be obsolete. so iam thinking do i need to spend these 20-30 min every cd clearing torghast.
i mean it's fun to try out new legos
The ash won't be obsolete, you will still need exactly the same amount of Ash to create new legendaries.
Twisting Corridors almost made me quit WoW forever, worst gaming experience I ever had. Spent 2h over there to find out I couldn’t outscale the last 2 layers
They should link torghast to something like prison break for some NPC died but people like. And possibly reward some extra reputation.
i thought u need only 1150 for level 1 leg in 9.1 and rest will be leveled via some new mechanics
People need a purpose to go there. Ash should be however the less significant part.
TC is the challenge mode though, there's no need to do that weekly at all and it shouldn't factor in into the "grind" part of the mechanic
I know, but still. Spend 2h and get nothing. Eh
That's wrong. Afaik you make a lvl 4 legendary like you do now and then two more levels from another resource you also get from torghast
Too unrewarding to ever make me consider going back there
there is some orb in professions u can upgrade legs with .or i misheard it dunno
TC is not rewarding at all. For me, who don't care about pets and shit it wasn't even worth retrying a floor after a fail (which as you say was demoralizing). But Torghast is basically a free reward now since it's nerfed.
Just go read up on it to not be confused anymore. Better than cursing Blizzard for something they didn't do when you get to 9.1 and realize you could've prepared better.
there is little incentive to play TC, you get all benefits of it in 9.1 without requiring you to spend hours grinding the floors
so when comleting 12 layers u get ash+ super ash? so u still need these 5100 old ash for legs?
i will browse through these changes now
if you want to prepear for 9.1 your best bet is to get all covenants to 40 and get as good gear as you can
also possibly farm herbs/ore/etc. so you can craft new stuff quickly
I’d hardly say that clearing 8x18 floors is anywhere near free since all that time could also be spent on enjoying the game. But I guess you’re right, if you have enough time it’s just another extra mount
I was talking about Torghast being free. Twisted Corridors are not free and basically a waste of time now that you can get a mount from quest.
There’s a maw mount from a quest?
already 40 on 2 covenants, dunno if its worth all the grind for 100dps more on another 2 covenant left ) hard to justify boring questing now i prefer some real info so i can do it with will )
can someone explain pandemic to me
Yes. Bound Shadehound
A dot is refreshed with the current dot's duration added to it, up to 130% of the new DOT's duration
Oh lol? Thanks for this, didn’t know
btw i made decision fuck these 120 layers of corridors iam gona make the quest maw mount. never regreted for this
@strange python j'ai regarde tes parses et honnetement si tes nouveau a la spe tu te debrouilles grave bien
comme lautre a dit vaut mieux regarder la parse qui prend en compte ton ilvl
shh
parceque la parse normal ca prend en compte des gens avec le meilleur stuff du jeu
Really?
ty
got a fucking
82% parse on sun king as monke wenesday in rai
kinda creamed my pants
feels good to win DPS meters

Yikes
@swift dragon ok merci je vais revoir l’opener déjà
Somebody get an admin

parceque t'as tellement de buffs/debuffs a maintenir que cest vraiment important de bien les commencer

im just explaining what cev said in french
Ouais je comprends merci 🙏
tqt
You can’t do this privately?
yes
fair
Im maried çant go private with mia 😂
Not really, but it would be annoying if everybody would do this in their own language I’d say
nobody speaks my language though 
would it tho
which one
Yes it would
kurwa
budget french
catalan ?
romanian 


also wtf? 
its literally budget french
catalan is an incredibly fucked language
anyways back to rogue stuff before i get banned by koff for talking about irrelevant shit again
sounds good
@shrewd night see im learning

Why the fuck are you pinging me


to show you I am somewhat potentially redeemable
That train left the station months ago
speaking of rogue
does anybody have a weakaura that tracks SBS on target?
the same way that most garrote/rupture weakauras work?
tried to clone one of them but I think it's broken because sbs has no duration
Just make sure it shows on nameplates
because I don't track that well with nameplates
And for reference, foreign languages is not allowed here. You either go into dms or write in english.
it does show, but it's not highlighted
SBS ?
Serrated Bone Spike
good to know
oh necro thing
p sure its infinite right ?
Just make a weakaura and just make it trigger when target is affected by Debuff and check Own only
Absolute corruption yeh
But idk, my tracker only glows when the target doesn't have sbs on them and I have a charge left
And then stops glowing when the SBS is applied
this is how it looks for me, ofc it gets hectic in M+
I never had issues with bleeds because I just see red stuff
or not
so I know if I need to reapply
Make the font a bit thinner so you can see the icon better, blacklist the Phial debuff
it's basic elvui
then again im basically a living hot take so my opinion isnt really worht much
bdnameplates too
and it just looks clean as hell
plater looks straight outta 1998
you can make it look good
same with basic elvui profile, the fonts are awful imo, and so are the most elements
but you have tools to customize it pretty nice
i guess
