stoic needle
#

it's fucking amazing that's what it is

#

all of these trinkets are fucking bonkers

tender crown
#

is doomblade worth?

subtle tundra
#

cause if there's 2 extremely good trinkets for that are for every class, those 2 will be played by everyone

stoic needle
#

after a tier full of skulkers wings and stone legion heraldry i'm fine with it

subtle tundra
#

i like this tier's trinkets

#

all good

stoic needle
#

they'll probably all get nerfed some before they go live so that they're all roughly equal

subtle tundra
#

its not like if you didnt get dreadfire you lost like 100 dps

#

the difference between each is small

stoic needle
#

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

subtle tundra
#

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

stoic needle
#

well there's that

subtle tundra
#

yea.

stoic needle
#

the "until cancelled" part of the decanter definitely won't stay

#

it'll probably have a lower ppm

subtle tundra
#

if wearing that one means getting +200 dps over others just cause theres a downside ill be mad

hollow escarp
#

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

stoic needle
#

i think it's going to be way easier to stay above 50% hp than you think

hollow escarp
#

when low hp

#

ofc

#

majority of the time we are full hp

#

but I'm thinking of situation where that can work against pepLaff

dawn ivy
#

im most excited for the frozen wastes trinket

#

sounds like potential execute

stoic needle
#

funny enough that one is my least favorite

north cobalt
#

how much haste is too much haste?

dawn ivy
#

it could be good execute, ijust hope "spawning a nerubian" has no potential for buggy pets

vivid laurel
#

until canceled is placeholder for X seconds

north cobalt
#

588 crit 756 haste 178 Mastery 199 verse are my stats right now. should i swap some shit around to get more mastery?

red plaza
north cobalt
#

i have

#

they are super close for everything.

red plaza
#

top gear enchant/gem sim, not stat weights

stoic needle
#

why are there several strength only trinkets but no agi only ones

#

wack

balmy condor
nimble tartan
#

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

halcyon zealot
stoic needle
#

mastery stonks

#

you nonbelievers shunned my prophecy

#

soon you will all be stacking mastery just like me

nimble tartan
#

mastery breakpoint stonks rising master poisoner in my sights

steep reef
balmy condor
#

probably just on haste and call it a day

nimble tartan
#

but imagine having -619 haste thats like ff14 gcd levels 0 energy regen.

kind talon
#

u would just put it on haste

stiff tapir
kind talon
#

and play ep vigor

stoic needle
#

you mean EP ds

kind talon
#

deeper?

stoic needle
#

vigor gets worse the more haste you have

kind talon
#

maybe

stoic needle
#

it's a fact

kind talon
#

depends if u'd overcap

#

with the trinket haste

stoic needle
#

that's why deeper sims better as venthyr

kind talon
#

ye

halcyon zealot
#

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

kind talon
#

yuh

stoic needle
#

EP/deeper gaming

#

let's go

kind talon
#

xd

#

depends on how much giga haste u can get

stoic needle
#

look at the items on the ptr

#

don't think it'll be very hard

frail fossil
#

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

compact pumice
#

Technically it is a bit slower since you need one extra CP to finish but it shouldn't be that big difference either.

stoic needle
#

people just like to complain about sin's pacing

#

it's really not a big deal whatsoever

frail fossil
#

i mean yeah sin is slow regardless of vigor or DS

stoic needle
#

i'll go slower for more dam any day

#

less hits but bigger > more hits but smaller happy

frail fossil
#

if u want a faster spec just play something else Kekl

stoic needle
#

but nah

#

MAKE SIN FASTER gregxd

#

BRING BACK CORRUPTION 90% HASTE SIN

#

meanwhile, outlaw exists

#

in the same class

keen cedar
#

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

keen cedar
#

can i do it here?

halcyon zealot
#

ye

stiff tapir
#

Copy and paste the link

#

Lols

halcyon zealot
#

+1...

frail fossil
#

one is 226

keen cedar
#

yea thats mythic

frail fossil
#

one is 213

#

ofc the 226 is better

halcyon zealot
#

oh, are you comparing the 2nd and 3rd line?

keen cedar
#

yea added both thought the mythic being only 1 dps better was wierd too

stoic needle
#

because secondary stats dont matter

keen cedar
#

these are my stat weights

frail fossil
#

can u just

#

sim top gear

balmy condor
#

stat weight trash

#

just top gear

halcyon zealot
stoic needle
frail fossil
stoic needle
#

mastery is bis

halcyon zealot
#

he’s a mastery shill

stoic needle
#

nah i mean like changing one item worth of secondaries will do nothing

loud niche
#

is wrathstone actually good?

#

from the timewalking raid?

keen cedar
#

but there is a 35 dps difference between the same ilvl gloves and the one that looks worse is better

stoic needle
loud niche
stoic needle
#

oj?

loud niche
#

95%+

stoic needle
#

i mean you can parse 95%+ with anything

#

doesn't make it good

loud niche
#

i mean, i certainly havent been able to get oj since the spec got big. i've been around a 90 parse mostly

halcyon zealot
#

at this point i think kill times have a bigger impact on getting a 95+ than any arrangement of secondary stats

loud niche
#

though, i also dont have 233 weps

#

wrathstone gives mainstat, not secondary

#

hence why i was curious enough to come here :3

nimble tartan
#

i got oj hungering by making sure I outdps the heal from consume

loud niche
#

oh snap

#

it's omr

stoic needle
#

youc an get 99s without 233 weapons

nimble tartan
#

i did some calculations and knew i could outdps the ticks

loud niche
#

i know that name from somewhere. wait who are you? i dont usually chill in the sub channel

nimble tartan
#

idk im kinda a lurker around here

loud niche
stoic needle
#

oh wait

#

i know why the sim is weird @keen cedar, it's iqd

keen cedar
#

oh yea

stoic needle
#

changing those gloves is making you get a different stat result from iqd and it's a dps loss

#

one sec

keen cedar
#

haste become my highest stat if i swap

loud niche
#

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

stoic needle
#

yeah for venthyr haste iqd is much worse than crit

keen cedar
#

i see thank you

blazing island
#

sorry guys if this has been asked. but whats the best pvp lego for assasa atm?

stoic needle
#

@keen cedar if i swap all of your gems and enchants to crit those 226 gloves are a 49 dps upgrade

shy dust
#

doesnt make it good

#

one trinket will not be the difference between your ability to parse a 95 or not

nimble tartan
#

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

loud niche
shy dust
#

IQD

keen cedar
#

ok so i always wanna try to have crit as my highest stat with IQD as venthyr?

shy dust
#

is amazing

#

hello

blazing island
#

tx

stoic needle
#

imagine wanting to get away from the bis trinket WeirdChamp

shy dust
#

but crit iqd is very strong yes

shy dust
#

makes gearing a headache though

nimble tartan
#

i didnt know iqd was bis in slot i hope i get it from my vault

nimble tartan
keen cedar
#

ok thank you so much guys i was way to dumb to figure this one out on my own

loud niche
#

220 IQD, sims higher than 226 sins/skulk's

#

it feels bad man

compact pumice
stoic needle
#

it feels great

#

vanishing into 100% crit

#

without MA legendary

#

is great

shy dust
#

I can vendor a 233 weapon in your honor if youd like

loud niche
#

yeah, but sometimes mine hits haste and then im like.... i can't believe you've done this

nimble tartan
#

its ok u dont have to do that 4 me

nimble tartan
#

do u rup and bleed all 3 guys on council to pad details meters + energy

#

or just 2

#

asking for a friend (me)

shy dust
#

its a st gain

#

to bleed them

nimble tartan
#

i know

stoic needle
#

2

nimble tartan
#

ok

#

garrote too?

shy dust
#

the 3rd is usually too much of a hassle to bleed

#

yes

loud niche
#

oof, and when i use the trinket's macro so i get the stats, and i still dont get the stats, i cry everytime.

nimble tartan
#

ty i am new to sin i have many simple question

shy dust
#

just rupture/garrote 2 of the 3

compact pumice
ionic fox
#

My WA lies also

#

says stats and gives mana to someone

loud niche
#

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

loud niche
nimble tartan
#

im a humble guy I wouldnt say that nor do I believe it but i cant stop my friends from believing in me

compact pumice
#

I think it's actually @player or something else

dawn ivy
#

Im thankful ive never had to use IQD this tier for monk or rogue

nimble tartan
#

my highest council killis 80 parse i will use todays tips and get higher ty!

compact pumice
#

I'm just surprised it's so good for Assassination and so bad for Outlaw tbh

dawn ivy
#

both time my vault has shown a 226 IQD was right after i already got BiS trinkets

compact pumice
#

IQD is kind of BIS though for Assa

loud niche
balmy condor
#

IQD is very very good

loud niche
#

whispyr, make IQD stop giving me haste ever pls?

strange python
#

how do you all have so much crit to be able to use iqd pepehands

loud niche
strange python
#

i mean i also have literally everything gemmed enchanted crit pepehands

loud niche
#

oof

balmy condor
#

just have shit items

#

kek

loud niche
#

lol

strange python
#

im just gna go back to necro

#

where my haste is appreciated

halcyon zealot
#

lmao

stoic needle
#

iqd is still 2nd bis for necro KekW

#

but gearing for it is a lot easier yeah

#

i just became a 6 gem andy this week

halcyon zealot
#

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

strange python
#

i have like 10 of those gem things total

stoic needle
#

pepehmm they're unique

strange python
#

used

#

that is

halcyon zealot
#

i lost a death roll early xpac and have a socket on my akaaris leggo

#

ecks dee

strange python
#

i too have a socketed 235 akaari

stoic needle
loud niche
#

y i k e s

stoic needle
#

well sub is going to be good next patch

#

so it won't be a complete waste anymore

strange python
#

i mean probably not better than sin

loud niche
#

^

#

sin for lyfe

stoic needle
#

seems to be on par at the moment

crystal barn
#

is anyone else getting pulled out of stealth constantly?

#

in m+ ?

stoic needle
#

are you running double potency theotar

crystal barn
#

i am

stoic needle
#

well first, stop that

#

its worse than wasteland propriety

#

and token of appreciation is bugged and takes you out of stealth

balmy condor
#

run double potency nadjia if you must run double potency

crystal barn
#

i was following infexious guide

balmy condor
#

of fucking course

#

why am I not surprised

uneven plume
#

do you guys like the EP/vigor or DS/BS combo

#

as necro

balmy condor
#

I like ds/bs in raids personally

#

but ep/vig is fine

#

they're very similar

stoic needle
#

i like ep/vigor but i havent been able to run bs/ds yet

balmy condor
#

it's basically "do you like blindside?"

stoic needle
stoic needle
crystal barn
#

hm

#

ok sounds good

halcyon zealot
#

infexious is known for spreading incorrect information in his videos based on his opinion etc

balmy condor
#

infexious rogue guides more like infexious not very good information guides

halcyon zealot
#

much better to come here with questions

balmy condor
#

am I rite

nimble tartan
#

infexious was a community figure here before that means something

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

like 6 years ago

crystal barn
#

so for m+ should i go double potency?

balmy condor
#

and then he decided to start a lengthy youtube series of bullshit

nimble tartan
#

always gotta respect ur elders

crystal barn
#

or just nadjia with lashing scars?

balmy condor
#

I don't respect anyone who says dumb shit regularly

stoic needle
balmy condor
#

I mean double potency nadjia is perfectly fine

crystal barn
#

much appreciated guys ❤️

#

it was infuriating to get pulled out of stealth before pull

stoic needle
#

i find the haste from thrill seeker less impactful than the big mastery from soothing shade

#

but sure it's fine

balmy condor
#

nice placebo

stoic needle
#

it's not placebo if it sims better science

nimble tartan
#

math dont lie!

balmy condor
#

5 dps better

tender crown
#

Can you loot leggo powers from twisting corridors?

balmy condor
tender crown
low girder
#

layer 3+ as normal

#

same chance afaik

drifting cloud
#

the 100% chance? 😛

low girder
#

nah some people get fucked

#

it's pretty sad lol

tender crown
#

ah ok, so it has to be layer 3 and up?

balmy condor
#

correct

tender crown
#

gotcha thanks!

drifting cloud
#

fucked by what exactčy

low girder
#

it's not quite 100%

drifting cloud
#

sounds like player error doing wrong layout or floor1

#

😄

low girder
#

just very high

balmy condor
#

it's like 98%

nimble tartan
#

anyone else have a bunch of respect for people who get 10 pis and are able to handle all that haste optimally

balmy condor
#

no

stoic needle
#

not even a little bit

hollow escarp
#

I feel tainted when I get PI

nimble tartan
#

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.

balmy condor
drifting cloud
#

where did you get that omr

hollow escarp
#

I always laugh when I see no-PI gamers outranking those PI whores

nimble tartan
#

i literally wrote that bro @drifting cloud

hollow escarp
nimble tartan
#

i was thinking about it in the bathroom at work

#

and giggling

drifting cloud
#

based

hollow escarp
#

sin rotation is not hard

#

to handle 10 PIs

#

you're just gonna cry on all that overcapped energy

drifting cloud
#

its like that random post someone linked in my guild

#

from ions ilvl comments let me find it

hollow escarp
#

why do people care so much about ilvl parses?

drifting cloud
#

because ilvl is holding them back

hollow escarp
#

that applies to myself as well

drifting cloud
#

so its only fair to compare to same ilvl people

hollow escarp
#

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+

stoic needle
gusty mirage
hollow escarp
#

but most people on low ilvl don't even try, don't log or are just boosted to get some starter gear

low girder
#

hardmode: ilvl parse with lower weapons than anything else

gusty mirage
#

true

low girder
#

like me kekW

gusty mirage
#

hard mode? that was like my first half of the tier PES_SadGe

#

226/220 gang now

#

purty happy with it

low girder
#

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

gusty mirage
#

shitty high ilvl flayedwing gang OMEGAKEKW

low girder
#

"frankly, that's a skill issue"

gusty mirage
#

I had a 220 flayed for so long

thorny pond
#

We can just take everyone with 2 233 weapons and make them share

low girder
#

jk 75 pepehands

gusty mirage
#

make sure you look at the historic parse not the today's %

#

(:

low girder
#

prolly wouldn't be correct anyway since it was a wipe

gusty mirage
#

esp with peeps getting fed PI like heroin addictts

simple wraith
#

Doom or MA leggo for PvP ?

balmy condor
hollow escarp
#

the folks from #pvp might be able to give you a better answer

simple wraith

Cheers

#

I have had a 220 dagger since like week 2 was MH than oh of course

compact pumice

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.

bleak sky
#

I'd say no but i'm not an expert by any means

#

need an adult in here

subtle tundra
#

no, not really

#

doomblade allows pad on shades

#

😳

torn atlas
#

Talking HC so shade impact is probably much smaller than mythic.

subtle tundra
#

i was just kidding

hollow escarp
#

do you even target shades?

torn atlas
#

Haha fair.

subtle tundra
#

yes.

#

mutilate

#

doomblade dot stonks up

hollow escarp
#

fair enough

bleak sky
subtle tundra
#

if that didnt work i probably would play zoldyck

#

cause i always hold vendetta for dmg increase

#

also im talking pad perspective

torn atlas
#

It's a between tier "social" alt raid, so yeah if I'm not killing shades we're wiping.

subtle tundra
#

and hard swap to dogs when they are execute

#

shades should never be a problem

#

if you let them get stacks

torn atlas
bleak sky
#

got up to 7.7k using doomblade so

#

you're probably doing something weird?

torn atlas
#

7.4k last week with PB. 6.something this week using CT. So I'm guessing the weird thing is using CT haha.

strange python
#

If you ha e enough haste you could run MfD

#

Have

bleak sky
#

pm me them logs dirtykook?

torn atlas
#

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.

zealous ridge
#

So wowhead is telling me to use only Zoldyck Insignia for most bosses, but is that really the best for ST?

balmy condor
#

no

#

you can see legendary comparisons in the pins

zealous ridge
#

oh thats embarassing'

#

i couldnt find it

#

LOL

#

i was looking at the guides on the pints

balmy condor
#

not the most egregious blindness we've seen :P

zealous ridge
#

Sorry!

#

So we really never wanna ambush outside of blindside proc?

#

i'm reading the ravenholdt guide rn

teal bloom
#

Yes, Mutilate generates higher amount of combo points on average and has two chances to apply poisons

zealous ridge
#

so scared to go strata on ass tho

#

already energy starved with vigor

bleak sky
#

are you keeping your bleeds up?

zealous ridge
#

yeah

stoic needle
#

You shouldn't have any energy issues on cleave if you keep your dots up

zealous ridge
#

pure ST

#

It's not HORRIBLY energy starve but

#

I usually do have something to cast

stoic needle
#

Thats just the pace of assassination

zealous ridge
#

but sometimes i gotta wait

stoic needle
#

Yeah that's fine

#

You wait but you do more damage

i cant tell if trying to is a dps loss or not lol

balmy condor
#

indeed up to 5

#

usually that's just the boss you're hitting + uno mas

tropic echo
#

thats 4 no?

balmy condor
#

yeah

#

anything else it too far away to be of value

what talent setup is it we run for sludge? vigor instead of deeper? even as venthyr?

with elusiveness you can

what was the weird thing on denny that you can't cloak in last phase?

how do i do that

tame moss
#

Hello,

What addons/weak auras do people use to manage their DOTs, espcially in M+?

prisma carbon
#

sire p1 lag isn't pc related

balmy condor
#

weakauras for current target

#

plater nameplates for aoe

old depot
#

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

tame moss
#

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

balmy condor
#

oh yeah definitely should

#

I even remove poisons from it

old depot
#

Just blacklist the buffs you don't want to see. No need to track deadly and numbing poison, or phial

balmy condor
#

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

tame moss
#

god plater has so many options

#

so hard to work out how to set customer debuff visibility

balmy condor
#

could just use kui

#

if setting scary

cerulean nest
#

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

balmy condor
#

don't think so

#

that sounds very niche

heavy trail
#

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

wise gull
#

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

bleak sky
#

it's not their pc, the fight is just shit

#

Got it all working, thanks @balmy condor

balmy condor

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

need 10s now and they all want 210+ ahah oh well will keep on trying

thorny pond
#

Push your key

#

That's honestly the best way to.get IO

heavy trail
#

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 🙂

torn atlas
#

Yeah it sucks to push a key you've already timed but sometimes it's your only way up.

full tendon
#

esp as melee

thorny pond
#

Worst case it tanks into a 10. Or you get gear and valor and a 12/13 of a key

torn atlas
#

Chances are you'll clear that key long before you snag an invite.

thorny pond
#

Better to get reps in anyways

torn atlas
#

I generally search for about 5 minutes Max before pushing my own.

heavy trail
#

if I complete the key and change to something else it will be different right ? (If I sti

#

even it fails ?

thorny pond
#

Yes

#

Random 10

heavy trail
#

Ok so that probably is a better option lol

thorny pond
#

Have to complete it though

torn atlas
#

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.

bleak sky
thorny pond
#

Sire p1 lag is a mechanic

heavy trail
#

@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.

thorny pond
#

You're also.competing against others in queue

bleak sky
#

^

thorny pond
#

Like they could have better gear and io

bleak sky
#

pugging as a dps is just sad

thorny pond
#

Nothing with you

bleak sky
#

level up a dh
get ksm
link ksm on your rogue and get into keys

#

that's what I've been doing tbh

heavy trail
#

Well most of them probably do or these guys just wait for that lol

thorny pond
heavy trail
#

never really tanked before haha but it's a though 🙂

bleak sky
#

+3 key? link ksm
+5? ksm

analog charm
#

+2? better be 1600 io & ksm

bleak sky
#

^

thorny pond
#

But if you want to push as a rogue, do your own key and grind it out

bleak sky
#

yeah, and that kinda goes as a dps in general

balmy condor
#

1600 io without ksm would be more impressive

#

tbh

bleak sky
#

there's an ocean of mages, imagine being the one chosen to be in a key

thorny pond
#

All 18s but a 4 dos

analog charm
#

I spent over an hour in a +10 SD.. I don't think I can handle SD anymore tbh

heavy trail
#

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.

analog charm
#

Ok true

quiet valley
#

SD is just a nightmare

bleak sky
#

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

heavy trail
#

man you can just scoot past that shit

analog charm
#

You know the room after Beryllia where you really don't wanna tank the mobs INSIDE that room before the gauntlet?

bleak sky
#

YES

analog charm
#

The tank wanted to uh... tank INSIDE the room

bleak sky
#

kekw

analog charm
#

pride spawned

heavy trail
#

oh geez

analog charm
#

and then he pulled the other mobs along with it

bleak sky
#

lmao

analog charm
#

So with storming & what not

#

It was just a clusterfuck

bleak sky
#

MDI strats

quiet valley
#

I think your issue is spawning pride there 😅

bleak sky
#

do prideful + gauntlet monkascheme

analog charm
#

oh and then on Kaal

heavy trail
#

im learning storming never did dungeons with it yet this expansion yet lol... yikes

analog charm
#

The healer, ele sham & dh got blown off with squall because they couldn't run to tank in time

bleak sky
#

sounds like you had a great time in that sd

analog charm
#

oh man I sure did

heavy trail
#

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...

analog charm
#

Best part was, tank somehow.. idk how, but somehow got Kryxis stuck in a corner during the fight

heavy trail
#

First 8 I applied too I get invited go figure lol will just practice storming

analog charm
#

Healer had the charge on him, we stacked & healer just flopped lol

heavy trail
#

Probably better anyway to get a few storming runs in so I don't get mad it's an irritating thing 🙂

analog charm
#

You can cloak the tornado and just stand in it 😄

heavy trail
#

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

whats the start point for diminishing returns for secondary stats for sin rouge

balmy condor

for all specs btw

carmine garnet
#

cheers im trying to decide whether or not more haste or mast is worth it on me

balmy condor
#

that's what sims are for

carmine garnet
#

true but I also just wanted to know more on DRs for stats

pure sinew
#

cant go wrong with nightfae right

bleak sky
#

you can evasion the massacre?

stoic needle
#

No

balmy condor
#

not really optimal at anything

pure sinew
#

its the least brainpower

#

just press it whenever irght

stoic needle
#

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 amonkaHmm

#

Crit iqd to get up a bunch of dots then bell to make them pump

Is doomblade the best current legendary for pve assassination?

balmy condor

for 1 target

pallid bough
#

why are people picking EP and Vigor over BS and DS in Mythic Sludge?

pallid bough
#

Ah

#

ty @balmy condor

heavy saddle
#

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?

balmy condor
#

we don't refresh if it has about 10-15 seconds left

fallen arch
#

You have predictive timers for how long mobs live?

balmy condor
#

it's something you get a feel for with time

heavy saddle
#

So it's always worth to apply rupture to a target even if it dies in 5 seconds?

fallen arch
#

I know 😅

#

No it’s not

balmy condor
fallen arch
#

So dont apply/refresh when it dies in 5 seconds

heavy saddle
#

Maybe I should give a more specific example, is it worth to DoT the cabalists on Sire?

balmy condor
#

if they live more than 10-15 seconds, yes

heavy saddle
#

Okay, I understand thanks

balmy condor
#

np

old galleon
#

!guide

pure sinew
#

why is shiv a part of our rotation again?

#

i forgot

vestal wren
#

read the ability

pure sinew
#

it applies both poisons

vestal wren
pure sinew
#

its because ass rogue has the most potent poison right

#

oh i see

balmy condor
#

shiv rank 2 increases poison damage

vestal wren
balmy condor
#

for 9 seconds

pure sinew
#

didnt see the rank 2 part

#

thats the problem

vestal wren
#

all fine 🙂

pure sinew
#

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

heady island
#

Define 'needs soothing'

#

If the tank is dead without the sooth, of course.

pure sinew
#

like the first big boi on dos

#

if he enrages its gonna be a diffy

balmy condor
#

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

heady island
#

Gotta use the little utility we have ^^

pure sinew
#

at least cloak can get yall into keys

#

i main warrior and i literally provide bshout

vestal wren
#

warrior does some rly nice aoe damage iirc

pure sinew
#

i mean yeah we do

balmy condor
#

warrior aoe is quite good yeah

pure sinew
#

but that doesnt get you into keys

vestal wren
#

rogue, more specifically outlaw is just meta and meta specs are usually picked over others in the group finder

pure sinew
#

i do 0 dps if i cant walk into the dungeon

vestal wren
#

but rogue isn't fotm

pure sinew
#

yeah rogues arent doing so hot either

#

melees in general that isnt monk

vestal wren
#

rogues will find problems getting into groups too, fire mage on the other hand... well lets say have a very easy time

pure sinew
#

did yall see that mage complaining on r wow

#

about how he cant get into keys

vestal wren
#

i don't look regularely at r/wow so no

#

but i assume he is a fresh max level char?

pure sinew
#

nah

#

hes like 220

#

downvoted out the ass

#

because he was like

#

"we need matchmaking"

vestal wren
pallid bough
#

nah Fuu

#

you heard Ion

#

its lack of skill

heady island
#

Ion was talking about dps wasnt he?

vestal wren
#

i did only read the tl;dr version of the interview on wowhead

pure sinew
#

i mean if you think about it, its just like real life

low girder
#

He was entirely talking about people thinking 20 ilvls gave people 70% more dmg

lavish pulsar
#

lack of skill was about ilvl scaling and he was right

low girder
#

Not really relevant

heady island
#

Exactly mata

pure sinew
#

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

vestal wren
#

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"

pure sinew
#

yeah basically

#

and your class is more like what school you came out of

#

in a way

vestal wren
#

but it does not tell you if you did a good/bad job or your job at all

pure sinew
#

for sure

heady island
#

From that, i get a question.
Do I get +score from doing a key I have done before?

vestal wren
#

yes

pure sinew
vestal wren
#

r.io measures the highest key you did (in time)

#

so every time you do a higher one you get higher score

heady island
#

Yes but then you misunderstand me.

#

But gotcha

pure sinew
#

i think he means if its the same key level

vestal wren
#

if your time is better in the same key level you also raise your score

heady island
#

Question answered.
I simply do not get more score for doing the exact same dungeon again with same time and same difficulty

pure sinew
#

yes

#

but going like a +2 gives you marginally more score

#

over a +1

vestal wren
#

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

heady island
#

Yes ofc. Thank you guys then I will keep pushing difficulty and time instead of quantity

vestal wren
#

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"

pure sinew
#

yeah for sure

#

its like autopiloting at your job vs making a difference

#

its hard to tell

heady island
#

Yeah.

pure sinew
#

in a way you can from what you write on the resume

#

still very difficult however

heady island
#

Hire the guy and pray 🙏

vestal wren
#

i am not sure if blizz fixes some of those issues in their r.io system

#

it sounded like they do it slightly diffrent

heady island
#

Imagine getting more or less personal score from avoidable damage taken, mitigation done, over healing etc.

balmy condor
#

That sounds like a nightmare

heady island
#

Yes.

#

Elitism "Helper"

arctic cloud
#

i stand in stuff to give healers something to do

#

so thats a yikes from me

heady island
#

😅 Very kind of you

#

As a guy trying to get better as mistweaver in m+ I thank you for teaching me the hard way

mossy crown
#

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.

rocky sluice
#

could someone please paste the macro for putting flaggel and vendetta please c:

#

casting them together at the same time

placid dawn
#

probably don't want to macro those, they have different cds

rocky sluice
#

just for my opener

limber lion
rocky sluice
#

good point though

limber lion
mossy crown
limber lion
#

Then you generate to max-1 again and then pool again.

dark crag
#

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

limber lion
#

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.

mossy crown
#

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

dark crag
#

I heard the main reason was to unspeed the playstyle so you could finish your favourite tv show

mossy crown
#

unless I misunderstanding

mossy crown
#

ohhhhhh

#

game changer

limber lion
#

It really doesn't matter. Sometimes you don't crit with your generators

#

Sometimes you do

mossy crown
#

yeah I was noticing that

limber lion
#

The only thing that matters is pressing Shiv on cooldown

#

Not the amount of Envenoms during it.

mossy crown
#

oh my word, I've been doing it wrong all this time

#

been holding shiv until 4/5 CP and about 100 energy

limber lion
#

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

rocky pecan
#

you only hold shiv if vend is coming

#

i think

upper timber
#

Sims keep showing EB/Vigor is worse for me than DS/BS should I just follow the sim here?

limber lion
upper timber
#

Okay, thank a lot

final star
#

EP/Vig for me only 17dps behind in ST

#

so lazy me gonna go EP/Vigor 5Head

#

2 target seems EP/DS is best for me rn

mossy crown
#

what settings on raidbots do people use for m+? 4/5 targets 1 min?

final star
#

dslice

balmy condor
#

Dungeonslice yep

mossy crown
#

interesting

balmy condor
#

Is it?

final star
#

tc have optimised for dslice as well

mossy crown
#

just hear people using different, a lot of conflicting info

balmy condor
#

Rogues use dungeonslice cause we optimize sims for it

#

A lot of other classes don’t support it

mossy crown
#

right I'll start using that

frosty aspen
#

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?

balmy condor
#

Cloak blood price, painful memories are feint, burden of sin cant do anything

#

Evasion does nothing

#

Feint doesn’t work either afaik

final star
#

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

frosty aspen
#

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.

safe gulch
#

venth still best for ass?

brisk forge
#

Raid yea

#

M+ - Necro

low girder
#

Feint does work on cleansing pain though if you're ever doubling up with someone on one of them

swift dragon
#

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

final star
#

necro with doomblade is fun

low girder
#

I would not recommend kyrian as it's like 3rd best at any specific thing

#

At most

#

Jk it's last at everything

swift dragon
#

yeah i wouldnt reccomend it but like it doesnt make the spec not work

#

venthyr druid pepechortle

final star
#

the first non-NF druid on M denathrius

#

is ranked like 4.1k

#

there is only 11 non NF druids iirc

#

!oil

prisma monolithBOT
#

Using consumables will increase your damage, however the difference between oil/stone/potion combinations are very minor (within 0.5% of each other). You can sim the difference for yourself by pasting this pastebin underneath your /simc input, in the "advanced sim" section of raidbots: https://pastebin.com/Lbxc7afJ

swift dragon
#

venthyr is good on paper but in practice youre just not NF

final star
#

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

swift dragon
#

yeah

royal lantern
#

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

final star
#

only thing to look out for is the positioning requirement

#

but otherwise yeah

strange python
#

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

limber lion
#
  1. The fight is very long, so it's very hard to parse well on it.
  2. 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.

fallen arch
#

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

limber lion
#

But I have to say

#

Your opener is the messiest I have ever seen

#

Okay, I'll list a few things:

strange python
#

Ok is not so bad so

#

Ok my opener

limber lion
#
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

strange python
#

WoW thx !

limber lion
#

This is the opener that you should be using.

strange python
#

I will try to fix dat

final star
#

I think my opener is correct for necrolord too

strange python
#

Thx @limber lion !

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.

fallen arch
#

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

limber lion
#

Yup

north basin
#

is there any reason to farm ash now? or just forget about torghast til 9.1?

#

have 4 235 legs already

fallen arch
#

Well

compact pumice
#

Might be coming some legendaries you want to craft

fallen arch
#

If another one takes over bis

#

U want to have the ash stashed

#

I’d say

compact pumice
#

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

fallen arch
#

Too bad Torghast is such a fucking tedious chore to do every week

final star
#

torghast easy

compact pumice
#

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)

fallen arch
#

I detest it so badly, excuses me for my saltiness

compact pumice
#

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.

fallen arch
#

A shitload more annoying I’d say

north basin
#

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.

timber basalt
#

i mean it's fun to try out new legos

compact pumice
fallen arch
#

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

whole mason
#

They should link torghast to something like prison break for some NPC died but people like. And possibly reward some extra reputation.

north basin
whole mason
#

People need a purpose to go there. Ash should be however the less significant part.

compact pumice
fallen arch
compact pumice
fallen arch
#

Too unrewarding to ever make me consider going back there

north basin
compact pumice
compact pumice
vestal wren
#

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

north basin
#

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

vestal wren
#

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

fallen arch
compact pumice
fallen arch
north basin
#

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 )

swift dragon
#

can someone explain pandemic to me

@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

tried to clone one of them but I think it's broken because sbs has no duration

limber lion
#

SBS doesn't have a duration

#

Yeh

#

Why would you need to track it?

compact pumice
#

Just make sure it shows on nameplates

hollow escarp
#

because I don't track that well with nameplates

shrewd night
#

And for reference, foreign languages is not allowed here. You either go into dms or write in english.

hollow escarp
#

it does show, but it's not highlighted

swift dragon
#

SBS ?

hollow escarp
#

Serrated Bone Spike

swift dragon
#

oh necro thing

#

p sure its infinite right ?

hollow escarp
#

ohh

compact pumice
#

Just make a weakaura and just make it trigger when target is affected by Debuff and check Own only

hollow escarp
#

I could copy the warlock thing

#

or that

limber lion
#

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

hollow escarp
#

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

swift dragon
#

thats a very pog name plate profile

#

what addon do u use ?

compact pumice
#

Make the font a bit thinner so you can see the icon better, blacklist the Phial debuff

hollow escarp
#

it's basic elvui

swift dragon
#

damn

#

am I like

#

the only person on earth that uses bdnameplates

hollow escarp
#

I always wanted to migrate to Plater

#

but I always get lost in tweaking it

swift dragon
#

plater is a clusterfuck

#

highly overrated imo

hollow escarp
#

it's pretty good for customization

#

but so is elvui

swift dragon
#

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

hollow escarp
#

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

swift dragon
#

i guess
